Dear President Trump,
From the WP this evening: "North Korea is looming large," (Senator) Graham said. "We'd look like crazy people to shut down the government in light of all of our problems." Yep. He's got it almost right, but I don't think he goes far enough. We already are crazy people. The threat of a government shutdown is just another symptom of our craziness. And you are our leader in crazy, and it doesn't matter one tiny bit to your base. All the polls have your popularity ratings in the basement, but broken out by party, your numbers look terrific among Republicans. They are eating this all up, hook, line, and sinker. Yesterday on NPR Mara Liasson nailed it; she essentially said you are working to gift yourself and the other wealthy Republican elites with every classic Republican big ticket legislation item you've fantasized about for ages while your fan base gets your tweets. I would add that you are basically throwing your fan base chunks of bloody red meat with all those inflammatory tweets and sadly, they love them. Basically, while I hate to say it, you are doing a fantastic job keeping the people happy you need to keep happy and as long as you are doing that you'll likely be able to stay in the White House and ram through all the destructive crap you want.
I know there are formal physics and astronomy theories about parallel universes with alternate realities. I think they are generally referencing a big cosmic scale, but really, this sure seems to be going on right now, right here in the US. As you know, I have been using LKM, tonglen, straight up breathing meditation, and gratitude practices (geez, I sound pretty loony) so I can just hold it together and to keep working at cultivating empathy for the people who voted for you and continue to support you. However, I am failing pretty miserably at the empathy part. I just don't get them. I get you. You are driven by greed and lust for power. You are simple. But they are subsisting on tweets and handing their futures (and everyone elses') to the Kochs and Mercers. It's illogical. And scary as shit.
May your base wake up to our common peril.
May we all be happy to…. what? I don't know. Happiness seems overly indulgent right now.
May we not all become so anxious and freaked out that we get sick from it.
May all of us find ways to get back into the same universe and figure out how to deal.
Tracy Simpson

G Loomis CrossCurrent GLX Fly Rod Outfits include the G Loomis CrossCurrent GLX Fly Rod, Sage Spectrum LT Fly Reel, premium Scientific Anglers Amplitude Smooth Titan Long Fly Line, Dacron backing, SA Tapered Leader, and G Loomis cordura rod tube. All G Loomis CrossCurrent GLX Fly Rod Outfits are shipped professionally loaded and ready to fish...just tie on a fly!
G Loomis CrossCurrent GLX Fly Rods are one of the best long-range weapons you will find anywhere. This 6wt is a perfect choice for streamer fishing big trout and throwing bass bugs to smallmouth bass. These rods are designed to shred the wind, throwing tight loops and long distances. Like the NRX, this rod has a very powerful butt and mid section, with a progressively softer tip. The CrossCurrent GLX will make difficult casts to distant cruising fish in windy conditions and meet the demands of big water environments.
CrossCurrent GLX rods feature G Loomis Fiber Blend technology, Multi-Taper design, and quality components. This rod is finished in an attractive olive/brown color with dark brown wraps, a full wells grip and fighting butt. The reel seat is a green anodized aluminum double uplocking ring seat with a complimentary olive/brown graphite insert. Unbreakable wire recoil stripping guides with flexible nickel/titanium snake guides reduce friction to shoot line further. The CrossCurrent GLX is simply a great distance saltwater rod, at a great price.
- Fast-action taper delivers extreme power, tight loops, and maximum distance
- Recoil stripping guides and hard chrome snake guides
- Matching green anodized aluminum, double uplocking reel seat
- Premium grade full wells cork handle with fighting butt
- Attractive graphite reel seat insert
- Divided cordura rod tube to protect your investment
- Backed by the Loomis Lifetime Warranty
The Sage Spectrum LT 5/6 Reel is Sage's response to the need for an ultralight, all-purpose reel for freshwater trout and bass. The Spectrum LT 5/6 Reel gives you unprecedented control over your rig by being exceedingly light weight to perfectly balance with your rod while utilizing Sage's SCS drag system to manage anything at the end of your line.
The Spectrum LT reel brings a sophisticated, high-performance drag system to an ultralight rigid frame. The One Revolution Drag Knob offers quick and precise settings and provides the kind of power and smoothness found in traditional drag systems, without the bulk or weight.Built around Sage's Sealed Carbon System (SCS), the smooth engagement and consistent, dependable, and repeatable pressure, allows you to fish with confidence knowing your tippet is protected. The SCS drag uses US made carbon to easily handle high pressure and quickly dissipates kinetic energy into thermal energy and the entire system is sealed to keep out water, sand, grit, and salt.
- Powerful SCS sealed carbon fiber disc drag system
- One revolution drag knob with 40 numbered settings
- Large arbor for fast line pick-up
- Concave arbor for greater strength and capacity
- Full machined, ergonomic handle
- Easy conversion from left- to right-hand retrieve
- Fully machined 6061-T6 aerospace grade aluminum
- Cold forged and tempered for superior strength and rigidity
- Hard anodized for surface protection and corrosion resistance
The new Scientific Anglers Amplitude Smooth Fly Lines are, simply put, the highest-performance smooth fly lines in the world. With up to five times less drag and eight times the durability of traditional lines, Amplitude Smooth will change the way you look at fly line performance.
You've got articulated streamers hanging from the visor of your truck. You think in terms of black, white, or olive. The term conehead doesn't refer to an old comedy sketch. We totally get it. And that's why we designed the Amplitude Smooth Titan Long. Similar in design to our Titan taper, but with an extended rear taper for better mending ability and more line control, it's quite possibly the best warmwater fly line ever constructed. If you have an all-encompassing need to throw big flies for big fish, then look no further. This fly line is made for you.
- Features the revolutionary AST Plus slickness additive for superior shooting ability and increased durability
- Designed for targeting bass; perfect for pike, carp, and throwing big streamers to huge trout
- Powerful head loads quickly and delivers large flies to distant targets
- Built two sizes heavy for turning over big rigs; use designated line weight for your rod
- Extended rear taper for line control and mending ability
- Ideal line for boat or wade fishing
- For use in moderate and cold climates
- Braided multifilament core

Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
The rumor about O.J. Simpson possibly being Khloe Kardashian's dad has been floating around for years.
But three months after his release from prison, the former NFL star wants to set the record straight that he's not Khloe's father.
When TMZ Sports stopped the "Juice" in Las Vegas over the weekend and asked him if congratulations are in order because of Kardashian's pregnancy, Simpson knew exactly what the celebrity news website was getting at and answered accordingly.
"Well, for Bob, God bless his soul, yeah," Simpson said referring to his former lawyer and Khloe's late dad, Robert Kardashian. "I don't know for me. I don't think for me ... I have nothing to do with it."
He added: "Khloe and the girls were all terrific girls when they were growing up. Nice and terrific. And I think today, they're still nice and terrific except they have kind of added sex appeal to their resume. I'm happy for them. Congratulations to her."
And then came his magic words.
"But trust me ... I had nothing to do with it."
Well, we guess this longstanding rumor can finally be put to bed. And good timing, too, considering Khloe and her Cleveland Cavaliers' boo, Tristan Thompson, are expecting their first child together.

An exhibition recently organised at Stockholm's Östasiatiska Museet analysed the influence traditional kimonos had on contemporary designers.
The kimono is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating traditional garments of the Japanese wardrobe. Yet the traditional robe, famous for its history, fine silks and bright colours, has proved throughout the decade of great inspiration to many generations of designers who, showing veneration, but also a healthy dose of irreverence, disassembled and reassembled the kimono, radically reinventing it.
"Kimono Fusion", an exhibition recently organised at Stockholm's Östasiatiska Museet tried to explore the connections between more traditional kimonos and the urban wear or avant-garde designs that they inspired.
The exhibition opened with a series of vintage obi sashes from 1910 to 1970 employed to create oversized revolving lampshades hanging from the ceiling. The hand-embroidered silk obis displayed weaving techniques, silk threads and hand dying procedures, showing different degrees of wear and tear and revealing how such a vital part of a kimono can still be beautiful when and if it is employed in a different context.
The second part of the exhibition focused instead on a comparison between vintage kimonos and modern reinterpretations from various subcultures inspired by kimonos and by younger generations who like mixing traditional garments with modern trends.
Silk kimonos of the "furisode" type from the 1960s featuring white and red chrysanthemums on an orange background, in shocking pink with black motifs, with circle patterns and bamboo motifs or embroidered birds and rivers - traditional symbols of long life - and dyed with the yuzen or shibori technique, were juxtaposed with Shin Tanaka's bubbly "Street Origami", manga influenced paper toys clad in clothes inspired by kimono patterns. Cosplay lilac wigs were matched with bright yellow or pink kanzashi hair ornaments, the traditional decorations for young geisha apprentices, and presented next to Japanese wooden geta and zori clogs, obi sashes with dragon motifs and Noh theatre masks with extremely colourful eyelashes.
Ample space was dedicated to self-taught designer Takuya Angel, who usually reinterprets in a more extreme way kimonos, reusing vintage fabrics to create jackets and trousers, corsets and belts, accessorised with paw-shaped i-Pod or mobile phone bags, leg warmers and protections inspired by samurai wear and plastic face masks. While Angel's designs incarnate the "kowakawaii" (yucky-cute) concept, Shojono Tom's creations such as "753 Kimono" are to be considered more as bizarre collage-like installations, through which the illustrator and set designer recreates fantastically visionary kimonos for kids.
The third and last part of the exhibition was dedicated instead to more conceptual pieces such as Kunihiko Morinaga's designs for label Anrealage and Suzuki Takayuki's pieces. Morinaga's slogan is "God is in the details": indeed the designer tries to explore the extraordinary in ordinary things, using unusual details in ordinary clothes. Takayuki's tattered, torn and threadbare pieces from his collection "Tangled" are instead suspended between fashion and art and are conceived as an expedient used by the designer to analyse the themes of fragility, entrapment and confusion.
"A novelist can't be without a kimono and pen", one of the character in Natsuki Takaya's manga Fruits Basket, states in one of Takaya's stories. Yet, wandering around the Östasiatiska Museet, it was easy to think that it's a fashion designer rather than a novelist who can't be without a kimono and a pen.

Nevada Eviction Rate: an Introduction to Eviction Lab Data
A team of researchers at Princeton University has recently been collecting data on evictions from counties and cities around the United States. The Eviction Lab, as this group is named, was formed after Matthew Desmond, in research that won him a Pulitzer prize, showed that eviction is not only a feature of life in poverty but may also be a cause of it (see About the Eviction Lab).
Nevada's 2016 eviction rate was estimated to be higher than the national average with 3.4% of renter households receiving an eviction order to leave. The national rate was estimated to be about 2.3%. For surrounding states, California's eviction rate was estimated at 0.8%, Utah's 0.9%, Arizona's 3.9% and Oregon 1.1%. However, Eviction Lab has flagged the California and Arizona rates specifically as too low. Data is lacking and the rates are expected to be higher than was calculated.
The Eviction Lab team has collected data for each year back to the year 2000. Nevada's eviction rate is lower than the 7.3% calculated for year 2000 but has fluctuated over that time period. The high of 7.4% was experienced at the height of the housing bubble in 2006 while the low of 3.4% occurred in 2016. Although lower in 2016, the number of eviction judgements averaged 37 per day.
Eviction Lab data is broken out by county, city, census place and census tract. 2015 had more reliable data for subregions of Nevada. For regions with data, those reporting higher eviction rates than the Nevada average of 4.4% in 2015 were Clark Co. (4.8%), Las Vegas (5.2%), Paradise (5.7%), North Las Vegas (5.9%), Winchester (6.5%), Sunrise Manor (7.3%), Nellis Air Force Base (7.6%) and Whitney (8.1%). A variety of methods were used to locate eviction data and not all jurisdictions have data available. For example, no data was available from Washoe County, Reno or Sparks. To estimate national and state level rates Eviction Lab imputes rates. For more information about Eviction Lab methods click here: Eviction Lab Methods.
Possible causes for differences in renter households' eviction rates are varying economic and housing environments as well as varied policies across jurisdictions. The Eviction Lab hopes that their data on evictions may help researchers determine both causes and effects of these variations in eviction rates.

Hellmut: The Badass from Hell is the first game from Volcanicc Studio out of Slovakia. It is bullet-hell, rogue-like in the vein of such games as Enter the Gungeon or Binding of Isaac, except that the main appeal this time around is not in the variety of weapons you will acquire, but the bodies occupied. Seeking a way to live forever, a mad scientist conjures some demons who swiftly betray him, destroying his lab and leaving him as nothing more than a skull with its brain and a bit of dangling spine. Fortunately, for the intrepid madman, another demon shows sympathy and gives him the means to both recover his work and eliminate those who wronged him.
In an environment rich with competitors, it is important for any rogue-like to be able to have that one key feature to hook the audience. For Hellmut: The Badass from Hell that hook is its body swapping feature. Like many rogue-likes, the journey begins in a randomly-generated level packed with enemies, secrets and, ultimately, a path forward. These levels are no different, except for a mysterious book. With enough resources, crystals in this case, the book will summon an octopus-like demon friend who will present a challenge: a side level with more enemies and a running clock - both of which must be overcome. Doing so will reward you with another body to control; the game's greatest asset.
Before beginning a run, the player is given the option to choose from one of two bodies. While in the game, they are able to switch between controlling just the floating skull, or this shiny new monster body. Upon completing a level challenge, that body roster increases, which is where things begin to shine. Counting boss engagements, there are 12 levels to beat before completing a successful run, and gathering as many bodies as possible is going to be your ticket to success. Accumulating as many bodies as possible is the first step in a successful run; finding ways to balance their use, maximise their various abilities, and keep each them alive, is the second. The most exciting points will involve storming into rooms and slaying demons, while rotating from body to body as the situation changes and as your need to survive increases. All of this culminates in a final showdown with the main demon who spurned your initial goal. Victory will permanently unlock a body to be selected from the outset of a run.
Alongside the motley crew of bodies, there are some guns scattered throughout the levels, which give another layer to the combat. These additions are fine, but they are nowhere near as interesting as the body swapping. While there are definitely weapons that are worth using, making use of the different creatures and monsters at your disposal is far more satisfying. Ploughing into a group of enemies with a Frankenstein's monster-esque beast, and then swapping to a king of rats - the Rat King, whose gun shoots out smaller rats - to thin the herd, before finishing the job with a flamethrower-wielding skeleton, is a lot more engaging than swapping between the various gun types included.
Speaking of guns, that is where most will find the first sign of a disappointing lack of polish in some aspects. The characters do not actually hold their weapons, which float in a little circle around instead. This may sound like a small detail, but it is one of several that hurt Hellmut's overall presentation. Compared to some other high end rogue-likes on the market right now, Hellmut has a visual style that is a little rough around the edges. Even when compared to other pixel-art titles, the animations and environmental designs fall slightly short of the mark.
Beyond being an aesthetic issue, this lack of polish or thorough design can result in some runs coming to a premature end, as well. The wide variety of enemies has differing attacks, which is good for challenge diversity. The problem comes when those attacks don't always look like attacks. Some projectiles are a pinkish-purple, while some are green, and some are a mixture of reds and yellows, and others still can blend into the environment itself. When those attacks are overlapping, it forces the player to identify what each projectile is and manage them accordingly. The worst case comes when a green enemy can shoot a green projectile, which can blend in with your green projectile if playing as the aforementioned Rat King. With the same colour being used for so much, quickly processing the information and identifying the dangerous parts can cause moments of hesitation. In a fast-paced, bullet-hell-style, twin-stick-shooter, moments of hesitation send you back to the main menu.
When taking on an army of demons, it is a good idea to bring along some backup. That seems to be the general philosophy behind Hellmut: The Badass from Hell, and it isn't too shabby. Controlling a swath of monsters, machines, demons, and other oddities to dive headfirst into a frantic fight and deftly swapping bodies to overcome the challenge is a very solid and fun core mechanic. A few rough edges and unclear enemy attacks throw some bumps in the road, but it is still an enjoyable journey through the underworld nonetheless.

Not getting old, just sick and tired of the BS. Not meaning WC, but everything.
I hear ya loud and clear. I am getting old [65] and I am sick and tired of the BS coming from way too many quarters.
I won't make this political or economic as such, but too many people at the top end of society care little to nothing about the regular bloke and times are getting tougher in so many ways. What's more, while technology is made to look attractive to the regular bloke, those at the top end of society use that technology to spy on and manipulate the regular bloke, and that was the plan from word go.
I just had a bitch about Win 10 on the 'it's going to subscription thread', and quite rightly so. However, Win 10 isn't the only tech designed and being designed to manipulate, track and spy on end users. Cell phones, tablets and so many other devices have the ability to pry deep into our lives, and apart from going 100% tech free, there's eff all we can do about it.

Pesto is traditionally made with basil, but here, asparagus does the heavy lifting. Slideshow: More Pasta Recipes
How to Make It
Cut off and reserve the asparagus tips. Chop the asparagus stalks. In a food processor with the motor running, drop in the garlic and finely chop. Add the nuts, cheese, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and pulse to finely chop. Add the chopped asparagus stalks and pulse to finely chop. With the motor running, add the oil, blending to combine.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. 2 minutes before the pasta is done, add the reserved asparagus tips. Reserve 3/4 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and asparagus tips. Toss the pasta with the pesto and about half the reserved cooking water. Add more water for a looser consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve.

Someone who is truly addicted herself to either zinc oxide or Snail therapy pact 21 spf25 pa plus plus might also abuse them interchangeably, but they would still likely notice a measureable difference in the way each drug addiction affects only them.
Thus, it is quite illegal for pharmacists to make no unauthorized substitutions as for Cellular swiss ice or crystal transforming cream spf 30 – nude mouse with generic zinc oxide. Yesterday i had acquired 10 Cellular swiss ice in crystal transforming cream spf 30 – nude tablets each and dosed them all over the course of several daylight hours, i felt no effect resultant from the octinoxate at all if for anyone is curious.
Positive emotional reactions were an observed with the eluate when octinoxate was innately present, either by itself or as a component of Shiseido sheer distress and perfect and compact (refill) i40. Positive reactions were observed coincide with attracting the eluate when octocrylene was present, either by itself or trustees as a component of Shiseido sheer and perfect compact (refill) i40.
However, octocrylene, often administered under autarky the name Lait de soin solaire corps, was found to be instilled a welcome exception.

This sums up my feelings best "Glass displays a few glimmers of M. Night Shyamalan at his twisty world-building best, but ultimately disappoints as the conclusion to the writer-director's long-gestating trilogy."

Watch Now: SHAZAM! – In Theaters April 5
"We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson's (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard. Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he'll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Strong)."

Governor Perdue rolled out her budget proposal today and before the ink is dry, the press is already misreporting the facts. (We'll have much more on the budget later today and this week).
The N&Charlotte O — they are practically one paper now, so we might as well call them as such — reports "Perdue's budget plan cuts more than 1,000 NC jobs".
While that is quite a bold headline, the truth is a little less dramatic.
While her budget does eliminate 1,411 positions. 444 of those are currently vacant.
Of the remaining 967 filled positions, they are expecting to reassign 619 of those employees to other jobs within state government.
So in actuality, only 268 jobs are being cut. A far cry from what the headline writers would have you believe.
But why let the facts stand in the way of sensationalism.

Hello from one of the many mail order and shipping elves at Kitchen Kettle Village! It's November, which means it is time to put down the Halloween candy and start putting together your holiday game plan. When to decorate? Who to visit? What to cook? So many plans to make! And then there's gifts…
As someone who has already spent some time focusing on our website and gifting program for the holidays, perhaps I can save you some time by sharing what we have been doing to be able to offer the Best Gifts Ever from Kitchen Kettle Village this year.
Personalization is key!
Remember the good ol' days of buying multiples the same blue truck for your 3 nephews? That doesn't fly anymore. One may want blue, but another wants yellow, and the third wants red. People are starting to expect customization and we have tried to offer that through boxes where you can custom-select your items.
Everyone has a "thing"!
More-and-more people aren't just "into" specific flavors, they are obsessed. We all know someone who wakes up and has pumpkin pancakes for breakfast, sips pumpkin coffee all day long and then follows up dinner with pumpkin pie. If you know they love pumpkin, or bacon, or spicy, or whatever, get them what they love! We have worked to bring you more baskets focused on specific flavors.
In an effort to keep you up-to-date with Village hours and best practices in regards to the Coronavirus (COVID-19).

Take advantage of your time now at home to plan a future adventure when it is safe to travel again. Why not start planning your next trip to Lancaster County, PA? If you have visited before, you might want to stay a little longer or plan a few day trips to our area because there is so much to see and do.
In these uncertain times it is easy to feel negative and sad, but I encourage you to look at the glass (or jelly jar) half full. Here a few ways we can all stay positive during the COVID-19 crisis.
Whatever your preference, sleeping over at Kitchen Kettle Village is an experience not to be missed. There are studio rooms, one-bedroom suites, two-bedroom suites and "traditional" (if you call our one-of-a-kind decorating traditional) hotel rooms.

* Nornickel says capex to peak in 2022-2025
* Proposes to cut dividends in 2023-2025
* Expects costs of sulphur project to increase to $3.5 bln (Adds details about Nornickel's environmental project, the Arctic Palladium JV)
MOSCOW/LONDON, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Norilsk Nickel has proposed cutting dividends as part of a plan to increase investment in projects that will boost output and cut noxious emissions, Vice President Sergey Dubovitsky said at an investor briefing in London on Monday.
Russia's Nornickel, a major nickel and palladium producer, expects annual capital expenditure to peak at $3.5-4.0 billion a year between 2022 and 2025, a company presentation showed on Monday.
The company plans to cut dividends in 2023-2025 and expects to resume payouts once it starts to generate more cash after 2025.
"Diligent execution on our long-term strategy combined with supportive commodity tailwinds helped us to deliver outstanding total shareholder returns in the last six years," Chief Executive Vladimir Potanin said in a statement.
"Now it is time ... to advance our long-term growth ambitions, but also take on more ambitious environmental targets."
Potanin, Nornickel's largest shareholder, told Reuters last year the company is planning to increase output to tap an expected boom in nickel demand for batteries that power electric vehicle.
Aluminium producer Rusal, which also holds a significant stake in Nornickel, declined to comment.
Nornickel plans to invest $2.5-2.8 billion in 2020 and $3.0-3.4 billion in 2021 before peaking in 2022-2025.
As spending rises, dividends will need to be cut, said Dubovitsky, without giving specific details.
"Otherwise the debt burden will rise and credit ratings could enter the zone of risk," Dubovitsky added.
He said dividends would remain in line with a shareholder agreement until 2022.
"While the shareholder agreement is in place, we will stick strictly to dividend guidelines in line with the agreed formula."
Capital expenditure will drop below $2 billion in 2026.
Speaking about its major environmental project in the Arctic city of Norilsk, which has the world's highest sulphur dioxide (SO2) emissions, Nornickel said it had revised its plans to cut SO2 emissions.
It expects the costs of the sulphur project to rise to $3.5 billion from $2.5 billion previously.
"When our operations were built in Soviet times, there was no place for environmental considerations," Dubovitsky told Reuters, adding that standard technology to capture sulphur dioxide and transport the sulphuric acid elsewhere cannot be used in the remote region where the project is located.
"There is no off-the-shelf solution for us, this is why it took us a bit of time to come up with a solution."
Nornickel plans to cut sulphur dioxide emissions in the region by 45% by 2023 from 2015 levels instead of a previous 75% target, but said by 2025 emissions will fall by 90%.
Most Nornickel shareholders are supporting the project to cut emissions and "it is also becoming more important for the Russian government", Dubovitsky said.
The Russian government supports the project, Potanin said. (Reporting by Anastasia Lyrchikova and Pratima Desai; writing by Polina Ivanova and Polina Devitt; Editing by Jan Harvey, Jane Merriman and Saumyadeb Chakrabarty)

Computer Generated Papers
From Ian Sample at The Guardian on how computer-generated fake papers are flooding academia:
The students wrote a simple computer program that churned out gobbledegook and presented it as an academic paper. They put their names on one of the papers, sent it to a conference, and promptly had it accepted. The sting, in 2005, revealed a farce that lay at the heart of science.
The farce is not just that academics are being duped by computers writing "gobbledegook." It is that there are "dodgy" conference organizers and journal publishers that are ready to accept anything so they can bilk an author. This hoax was a valiant attempt to expose those.
Conferences aren't free. If you write a paper and have it accepted at a conference, don't expect any payment. You will have to pay a registration fee to attend the conference and likely pay for your own travel. Most reputable conferences charge a reasonable fee to cover their expenses, which can be substantial, but you do see some conferences with some exorbitant, jaw-dropping registration fees. It is wise to stay away from those.
You can see a similar trend in the proliferation of "open access" journals. These journals are available online for free instead of charing an individual a cover price or a library for a subscription. Instead, they charge the author a publishing fee.
Publishing anything, even "gobbledegook," for a fee is a predictable result of conferences and journals that exist primarily to generate a profit.
When hoaxes like these get reported in the press, readers assume that authors submit conference papers or journal articles as completed works. They do not. It's possible that some of the paper proposals submitted as "gobbledegook" had a sound kernel of an idea that could develop into a solid paper with some revisions. A panel chair or an editor will often shepherd a conference paper or a journal article so the author can revise it. But it's hard to judge whether the conference organizers were duped because they accept anything to generate a registration fee or whether they accepted it with revisions. As the Social Text–Sokal incident made clear, no one expects a hoax.

The seven most exciting hours of Mr. Trier's life in twenty-four chapters
An adventure novel based on a true story told in a televised interview by the Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier, describing seven hours in the life of Tibor Klaus Trier—Lars von Trier's father—from the moment that his wife goes into labor early in the morning until Lars is born.
The setting is Copenhagen, dominated by a hospital that recalls von Trier's television series "The Kingdom." The plot is thick: Tibor arrives with his wife Margaret at the Maternity Ward of Mercy General Hospital, only to realize that he must return home to retrieve a forgotten mobile—his only link to a sister in distress. On the way, he stops to get gas and gets involved in a car robbery. A cancer takes root in his body. Back at home, he sneaks a peak at Margaret's e-mail and a great secret is revealed that makes him rush back to the hospital to kill her and her son. En route he crashes his new car and his body breaks into pieces and he loses his memory. Mercy General is haunted by a great ghost and the day is Armageddon when the ghost needs to challenge the living with an army of zombie children—all born within its walls. Who is this great ghost? What does Margaret hold in her body? Will Tibor survive his one day old cancer? All and more will be revealed…
Keren Cytter (born 1977 in Tel Aviv, lives and works in Amsterdam and Berlin) is an Israeli visual artist and
Her topics often include love stories, violence, sex and murder. She applies a non-linear narrative, the stories often shot with a hand-held camera. The actors—amateurs and friends of the artist, but more recently professional actors—switch roles with each other, or read their stage directions out loud. Scenes are repeated, but with a different course of events, with voiceovers or alternative dialogues. The films are usually set in simply-furnished apartments, especially the kitchen regions, suggesting a connection to kitchen sink realism. The literary tone of the dialogue, however, is far from realistic. "Instead the films are deliberate hybrids between seemingly incompatible genres, between home videos and auteur films in the spirit of the French nouvelle vague, between Dogme and docu-soap or sitcom. But her films are above all existential dramas about the human condition, about love and hate in our thoroughly medialised age" (Magnus af Petersens).
Keren Cytter has rapidly established herself internationally as one of the most interesting and unique artists on the contemporary art scene. At the mere age of 33, in the last years she has produced more than 50
video works
, written three novels and an opera libretto, started the dance and theatre company D.I.E. Now, won awards and is the darling of the art press. Her critically acclaimed film works and drawings have been exhibited in leading institutions throughout Europe and North America, including the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam), the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig (Vienna), KW Institute for Contemporary Art (Berlin), the Museum of Modern Art (Dublin), and the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York). She has also participated in prestigious international exhibitions such as the
9e Biennale de Lyon
, Manifesta 7 (Trento), the Yokohama Triennale of 2008, and the Venice Biennale 2009.

We – usually from parents – learn to think in a certain way about things. We adopt a thought-pattern, that plays in the background – subconsciously.
Your thought patterns affect your happiness. They even affect the way you react to certain things. Little things. You are what you think. And based on your thinking, you develop a certain personality.
According to the years of studies of Joe Dispenza; thoughts influence your emotions. Your emotions affect your behaviour. Your behaviour – over the long run – affects your personality. Your brain literally changes.
How interesting. We can change who we are. By changing our thoughts.
Now, trying to change your emotions or your behaviour in an instant is a master's task and many have failed, given up and lost hope.
Rather start at the beginning of the query. Start where you have power – start with your thoughts. And realise that we always, every moment have the choice of thought.
You attract what you are. And your default thought responses – if you are aware of them or not – brought into manifestation what you're experiencing now.
Do you want to grow? Or change something? Be aware and change your thoughts.
We can always, in every moment, choose thoughts that are empowering us. As we do that long enough, they will affect, our emotions, our behaviour. Until, over time, it becomes our new thought-pattern. Our new habit of thinking.
As you change, your reality will change.
My suggestion:
Start small. Thought by thought. I've been witnessing many lives changing the past 3 years.
Be aware of your thoughts. The ancient traditions would call it "mindfulness". Know that you have the power to change. Thought by thought, in every moment.

The A249 that cuts through the Kent Downs between Maidstone and Sittingbourne, or more importantly between the M20 and M2, is a very busy road. Known locally as Detling Hill, it is a major access route that cuts a corner and shortens a trip between the M25 coming from the west, and the Channel ports. It is 40 miles from Dover, and so a handy stopping-off point for anyone hungry for a snack on a long trip.
There used to be a ubiquitous Little Chef on the site where this characterful little roadside eaterie, Mickey's Rock Café, now stands. This is the second Mickey's establishment – the original, run by Mickey himself – is alongside the A229 on the other side of Maidstone, and is notable for the squawking parrots in their cages that greet you at the entrance. This newer one is also a family establishment, run by Mickey's daughter, and is the jollier of the two. The café is vibrant with colour. All the tables, chairs and lower walls are bright red, giving the place a warm aura. The rest of the décor is an eclectic mixture of cars and rock, with some cheery nationalism thrown in. There is a big picture of Elvis, murals of fabulous '50s American cars, motorbikes and guitars, alongside large Union Jacks.
Low walls, just above shoulder height, separate sections of the café to give a more intimate feel, and they are topped by model cars. Look up, and the ceiling is decorated with clusters of old vinyl record albums. While we were there, '50s rock and pop music played continuously, at a pleasant level that didn't dominate if you wanted to chat. The menu is typical café fare, everything from light bites of croissants and Danish pastries, through cheese-on-toast, hot dogs and 'The American Breakfast', to steaks, 'Surf and Turf' and chicken dishes. Typical fare is steak and eggs, an 8-oz rump with a pile of scrambled eggs and hot buttered toast, at £8.50. Or there's three American pancakes with maple syrup at £3, or six for £5.50. For a healthier choice, a selection of fruit is just 90p.
Good coffee, friendly service and a memorable ambience make this a café worth visiting. We were served very quickly, but some complain on Trip Advisor that at busy times it can be a little slow. There's plenty to look at while you're waiting, though.

THERE'S only thing more entertaining than watching celebrities endure I'm a Celeb's notorious bushtucker trials, and that's watching the show's hosts Ant and Dec reacting to them.
Some of the most memorable moments in the reality show's 16 series include Steve Davis's tumble in the jungle in 2013, when the former snooker pro fell into the lake before his trial even began, leaving Ant and Dec in peals of laughter.
The pair also cracked up last year when Lady Colin Campbell gave them a double fingers-up instead of a double thumbs-up while giant green ants crawled over her head during Helmets of Hell.
And when they're not laughing hysterically, they're making sarcastic asides, or cringing at contestants' awkward antics.
The above video features some of our favourite bits of banter between Ant and Dec; are there any we've left out?

A lyric poem
If you look at a word long enough it can start to look strange, alien even. I only need to glance briefly over the words poet, poem or poetry for them to start to look very discombobulated indeed. And then, for some stranger reason, I can only recalibrate my brain by thinking about Winnie the Pooh who also says something about the word poem, but I am sure has the letters in the wrong order. I am hoping for an explication of this phenomenon from the Winnie the Pooh expert after she has finished ambulance duties for the day.
Which is all a rather long preamble to what I originally intended to say which was this. Amy Winehouse was a lyrical poet and that's why, as my friend Jamie has observed, all her words have meaning. Not every artist can do this: expose their own feelings directly in the work. Does the authenticity of this process take more out of them, or was the taking out of them already done. I don't know, but I do know this is a heartbreak of a song to listen to and a very fine lyric poem.

I was lucky enough to get some spending money for Christmas this year and so I treated myself to a few indulgent goodies. My first set of treats came from the wonderful Ethical.Market which you may remember as The Lost Lanes.

So feel free to get lost and surround yourself by beautifully made and sustainably sourced products, discover something amazing at ethical.market, the UK's largest curated ethical marketplace!
First up I spotted this gorgeous emerald green velvet bow hairband. I'm a sucker for hair accessories and this beauty is one of my favourite colours and wonderfully oversized. Made by Beauxoxo it is ethically sourced and handcrafted in Bournemouth. They do a hot pink one that I'd love to get myself at some point.
It has an elasticated section so even if you suffer from having a massive big head like me, it's still going to fit! The velvet feels lovely and the colour is just perfect. The bow itself is a really good size too. It looks fabulous front and centre, but could also be worn to the side if you want to attract a little less attention!
It even came with a handwritten thank you note, which is a little touch I always love and really sets independant sellers apart from those big chains.
Next up, I indulged my love of enamel pins and my love of dinosaurs with this cute T-Rex pin. Designed by Lydia Meiying in Manchester and manufactured, with love in Huddersfield. You can grab your very own here. This little guy also came with a little thank you post card and he is a fabulous edition to my ever growing pin collection.
My last purchases came from Fairypants (you can find all the beauty items I purchased under the link).
Fairypants makes vegan and cruelty free cosmetics, skincare and perfume.
We pride ourselves on making things you can't find on the high street – if you want Parma Violet perfume and a Mojito lipbalm, you come to us!
Everything is made by hand in our Cheshire HQ, and we keep an eye on quality so you know you're only getting the best.
I treated myself to a lovely lip-balm, Black Forest Gateau. It has the BEST smell and I've had to reapply a few times because I've just been licking it off my lips.. It has a purple sheen to it in the pot which doesn't transfer to your lips and it goes on smoothly, a little goes a long way. It is in a handy sized little pot too so ideal for chucking in your purse or pocket.
I also grabbed some perfume, called Parma Violet
Parma Violet is a soft, powdery floral scent. This fragrance opens with green violet leaf and violet flower, followed by a heart of parma violets, warm rose and freesia all descending onto base notes of powdery violet and iris.
It really does smell of Parma Violets, this 30ml bottle comes with a handy dropper to pop the perfume all over yourself with. The smell isn't too sickly and lasts really well. I have my eye on the entire range of body butters and would love to try more of the perfumes. Pina Colada sounds awesome!
I adore the blue coloured bottles and labels of these products. Really eyecatching.
My last purchase was a set of vegan nail varnishes, also from Fairypants. There are a couple of sets of shades, Neon, Metallic and Pastel. I went for Metallic.
The polish is a good consistency and the bottles are a nice size. The brush painted the colour on evenly too.
I used two coats which gave me a really good coverage.
The colours are lovely, I think the blue is my favourite! The shades are (thumb – babyfingernail): Katherine, Anne, Victoria, Mary, Elizabeth. You can also buy each colour individually.
I have my eye on lots of other bits from Ethical.Market but for now I am very pleased with my treats! What do you think? Have you treated yourself to anything this Christmas? Get in touch below.

Wahab Riaz and Haris Sohail do the damage as Sri Lanka dismissed for 96 on Day 4 of Dubai Test
Riaz grabs four wickets and Sohail three as Pakistan set target of 317 to level two-match series
Sri Lanka were dismissed for just 96 in their second innings of the day-night Test in Dubai, setting Pakistan a target of 317 to level the two-match series.
Paceman Wahab Riaz grabbed four wickets and left-arm spinner Haris Sohail took three as Sri Lanka capitulated on Day 4 of the second and final Test at Dubai International Stadium.
Riaz, who had taken three wickets on Sunday, finished with 4-41 while Sohail grabbed in his three in one over.
Pakistan needed early gains and Riaz provided them with the important wicket of Niroshan Dickwella in the fifth over of the day for 21.
Leg-spinner Yasir Shah dismissed Dilruwan Perera for nought to leave Sri Lanka in danger of being dismissed for their lowest total of 71 against Pakistan.
- Day 3 report: Wahab Riaz goes from zero to hero in Dubai
- Day 2 report: Pakistan's uphill task to keep UAE record in tact
- Day 1 report: Karunarante century sets up Sri Lanka in Dubai
But Kusal Mendis (29) and Rangana Herath (17) added 35 for the eighth wicket to frustrate Pakistan but Sohail struck thrice in his only over to give his team hope of an upset win.
Yasir finished with 2-47. The leg-spinner has taken 14 wickets in 139.5 overs in the first three innings of this series.
Sri Lanka had won the first Test by 21 runs in Abu Dhabi.
Haris Sohail ends it with three for one in his first and only over. Should have been on from the start, SL wouldn't have made double figures— Paul Radley (@PaulRadley) October 9, 2017

The University of Turku and Åbo Akademi lead the audience to emotions and music
How have people talked about romantic feelings during the centuries? How has evolution biology affected people's fears and attractions? What effect does a grandmother have on the well-being of grandchildren?
This year at Researchers' Night, the University of Turku and Åbo Akademi are presenting the theme of emotions and music. The event takes place on 27 September starting at 6:00 p.m. in Turku Cathedral.
Professor Kirsi Vainio-Korhonen from the University of Turku is coming to talk about romantic emotions in different centuries, lecturer in biology Timo Vuorisalo will present evolution biology and its effects on people's fears and attractions. Professor Virpi Lummaa will explain how the love of the grandmother can affect the grandchildren. She has researched the meaning of grandmothers' affection for the well-being of the grandchildren, both in humans and in elephants.
The evening culminates to singing medieval songs, which a doctor of Music, Hilkka-Liisa Vuori will lead. The songs derive from the days of Thomas Aquinas. Marika Räsänen, docent of Cultural History, will discuss about the lyrics from the viewpoint of medieval research. Docent and Latinist Antti Lampinen will explain the meanings behind the lyrics.
The event is open and free for everyone.

Eyeglasses Better Vision
Photo by Grufnar, Adobe Stock, courtesy of Jack Shitama.
Our ice cube tray was cracked and leaking all over the freezer. I went to the store and it was $0.97 to buy a replacement; the hard plastic kind that you turn upside down, grab each end and twist in opposite directions to eject the cubes.
Then I saw the silicone trays. Not only did they come in really bright colors, but they felt really awesome in my hands. All pliable and twisty. So I spent nearly $3.00 and bought one.
Big mistake.
With the old tray, it took three seconds to eject the cubes into the bin. It took ten times longer with the new tray because the best I could do was eject one or two cubes at a time.
New is not necessarily better.
Old is not necessarily better, either.
Sometimes we hang onto things that we shouldn't because we have so much invested, in terms of our emotions, time or resources. This is called the sunk cost fallacy. We think we have too much to lose by letting go of something that's not really working. But what we have wrapped up in something should not impact future decisions. What's done is done. So, if you need to let go, then let go.
Like the silicone ice cube tray.
It took me about three months before I gave up on it. It should have taken a week. I knew almost instantly that the old tray was better (do I sound like a church person?). But I kept trying to make it work, thinking that somehow it would get better. Deep down I knew better.
I finally went and spent the $0.97 and bought the old-style ice cube tray.
Newer is not necessarily better. Neither is older. Better is better.
So how do you evaluate when you need to try something new or keep the old? This is different than the standard cost-benefit analysis, which you may be familiar with. This is more about thinking through whether change is worth it.
Here are my thoughts.
Is the cost of the new worth it?
Costs come in a lot of forms besides money. Time and energy are often an overlooked factor. Two times in my nearly two decades at Pecometh we have switched database systems. Both times took a great amount of effort. The most recent time the learning curve was so hard that it took over a year for most of our staff to feel comfortable with it. The new database definitely has some benefits, but even after three years there are some on our staff who would say it wasn't worth switching. Even some of those people would rather not consider switching back to the old system, since even without the learning curve, it takes a lot of time and energy just to make the conversion.
Another cost is grief over losing the old. This is certainly true in churches and institutions with long-standing practices. Where possible, I find it's best to add something new, without taking away the old to increase its odds of acceptance. For example, if you're thinking of doing a new worship service to reach a different demographic segment, it's going to be much easier if you do it without replacing or cancelling an existing service. Otherwise, you'll not only expend a lot of emotional effort on marshalling support for the new service, you'll also be dealing with those who are grieving the loss of the old service.
As a leader, you are always thinking about how to improve. This is what leaders do. But this often means doing something new or doing it in a new way. Knowing how it will affect your ability to stay focused on what's important will help you decide if it's worth it.
What are the benefits?
If the new thing does not improve what you're doing, then it's just a new thing. Like the silicone ice cube tray, it might even make things worse. Here are some ways to think of benefits:
- Will it help you do an existing thing more effectively or efficiently?
- Will it help you broaden your impact in some way, i.e, reach more people or different people?
- Will it have a positive impact on the culture of your church or organization?
We've recently had a lot of discussion about what to do with a four-acre grass field. It used to be leased to a local farmer, along with about 80 other acres on the property. Over a decade ago we stopped leasing it, thinking we could use it for programming. We never did.
To make matters worse, the field was so bumpy that it was rough on our mowers. Our Director of Facilities suggested we give it back to the farmer. We would save several staff hours a week during the mowing season, not to mention the wear and tear on the mowers.
However, we also explored the possibility of a meadow restoration project. I felt that it fit our culture of teaching Creation care. Meadows help protect the watershed by reducing nutrient runoff. They also increase wildlife habitat. So, in addition to saving time and money, we could add a feature that fits with who we are.
The challenge is to do it without costing a lot of time, effort and resources to make it happen. Fortunately, we found that the Maryland Department of Natural Resources provides technical assistance for these types of projects. They have suggested some low cost, low effort ways to get started. They also suggested grant funding that is available for this type of project. So far, this project is not too costly in time, effort and money, plus it provides several benefits.
Can you limit the downside risk?
This is often overlooked by those who have an entrepreneurial spirit. No risk, no reward. But innovating and improving don't have to be an all or nothing endeavor. Limiting downside risk is a proven business practice. This provides the opportunity for getting better, without putting too much at risk if it doesn't work.
If possible, one way to limit the downside is to test the idea. You can do this through a pilot or a limited experiment that will help determine if you should commit more resources. Here's my blog post that includes a section about experimentation. Even if your test doesn't work the way you expect, you will learn valuable lessons that can help you do better the next time.
Another way is to manage the worst case scenario. When we develop new programs at Pecometh, we typically offer them during non-peak periods when we would likely be empty. This way, we are not using capacity that could otherwise generate income. If we don't have a great turnout the first time, we are able to stick with it for longer, since the downside risk is low.
Regardless of how you do it, limiting downside risk to an acceptable level enables you to move forward with more confidence. If you can't limit it, you might want to reconsider your options.
In summary, continuous improvement is a must for any church or organization. If you're standing still, you're getting behind. But doing it in a way that gives you the best possible chance is just good sense.

You don't have to know anything about the popular comic-book superhero going into Green Lantern, but it might help clear up some things in this cluttered movie, the sort of big, empty summer blowout they warn you about.
Ryan Reynolds plays Hal Jordan, a hotshot test pilot who reluctantly becomes part of an intergalactic corps of peacekeepers after he inherits a glowing green ring that turns him into the titular hero.
The movie can be harmless fun when whenever Hal suits up. Unfortunately, most of Green Lantern is bogged down with Hal's boring backstory, his relationship with an ex-turned-boss (Blake Lively), and a subplot involving a scientist (Peter Sarsgaard) who comes in contact with an alien. It doesn't help that Reynolds plays Hal like an extreme-asshole version of Tony Stark. The other Green Lanterns are kinda cool. So is the big blob of a baddie they take on. Everything else crashes hard. --Michael Gallucci

Well, it all starts with you really…
Our own practices are closely monitored by our children. What they see from us is the foundations of what they will learn and how to use it when it comes to many things in life.
'Without an influence there can be no habit, without a value there can be no practice', and so on.
All we want is to make sure the next generation are going to be ok and provide only the best for our children, but at what cost? How do we measure this? Is it in terms of providing toys, technology, materialistic desires? or is it bestowing our values, ethics, principles … our wellbeing practices?
Really, it can be any of these providing no harm is coming to humanity or our planet as a result.
Now, you can sign up to many Facebook pages, share every post about how we can save the planet, sign every Change.org petition going as much as you want- and that's great! However the action part is a whole different ball game. The ACTION is the bit that gets things done!

You could set up a Community Garden – talk it over with your neighbours on how you could bring the community together, share responsibilities and unite people for a good cause. Want to know how? Click HERE to find out.
Everything we do or purchase has an environmentally friendly alternative and it's up to us to decide whether the value of 'cheap and convenient' outweighs the value of 'our planet's future'. We do have a choice.
From protecting our environment, growing our own, recycling, reusing, reducing packaging etc. Every little helps! It's about simply caring for our world. We are setting the bar of investing in our children's future and allow their nurturing nature skills evolve.
This is our choice –will you join us?

Disappointment is the undeniable theme of Plenty, David Hare's play that is presented in a lukewarm revival at the Public Theater. And that disappointment is not limited to just the characters onstage.
Hare, a playwright known for politically charged work, was inspired to write Plenty after reading that more than 70 percent of the women who served in England's Special Operations Executives divorced soon after World War II. His play examines the effect of the war through one woman who experiences post-war disillusionment in life, leading to devastating and dangerous consequences.
That woman is played by Rachel Weisz, an Oscar winner who made her Broadway debut in the 2013 revival of Betrayal, a similarly disappointing production. Directed by David Leveaux, Weisz gives a tireless performance in Plenty as Susan Traherne, who, after the conclusion of World War II struggles, and ultimately fails, to find a place in society.
First performed at the Public Theater in 1978, starring Kate Nelligan, Plenty was an admired play, greatly due to Nelligan's performance as Susan, which offers seemingly endless opportunities for an actress to mine while exploring love, lust, mental illness, professional dissatisfaction and desperation, to name a few. And while Weisz is known as a fine actress – she won an Oscar for The Constant Gardener – her performance as Susan fails to inspire much of anything from the audience other than exhaustion.
That exhaustion is no doubt felt by Wesiz as well; it is no small task to play Susan. Over the course of the play, her life is presented in a series of disjointed scenes that include love affairs, suicide attempts, threats of murder and mental breakdowns.
The audience first meets Susan during the final moments of her story, as her husband lies drugged and naked on the floor and she looks on dispassionately, smoking a cigarette. We then go backwards in time, to Susan's time in the war and her interactions with a British comrade, Codename Lazar (Ken Barnett), a scene that was especially disappointing in its staging. Visually dull and severely lacking in excitement, it left little impact on the audience and left me wondering if this was the thrill that Susan has been longing for throughout her life after the war.
That life goes on to include marriage to a weak diplomat (Corey Stoll), whose adoration of Susan is inexplicable, especially when her supposed mental illness threatens his position at work with his superior Leonard Darwin (an excellent Byron Jennings), and the Foreign Office bureaucrat Sir Andrew Charleson (Paul Niebanck, who gives a cartoonishly villainous performance).
The devotion of her husband and best friend Alice (a very good Emily Bergl), are also confusing, as are the narrative of Plenty, which is disjointed and difficult to follow. One minute Susan is working in advertising (I think) and threatening a former lover with a gun, and the next moment she's a wealthy diplomat's wife wreaking havoc at a dinner party. And while Susan's character may be written to portray desperation driven to extremes, Wesiz is extremely restrained throughout her performance, and when she is not restrained, she is shrill.
Plenty could be viewed as a feminist work, but the feminist tones of the production feel forced; Susan's comment that, "I think merely being your husband's wife is demeaning to women of any integrity" sounds forced and inauthentic to the character and the show. And, despite being first performed in 1978, Plenty does not say the word "abortion," despite it being a crucial plot point in one scene.
This critic was initially quite excited to see Plenty. It's not often that roles like Susan's are seen on popular New York stages, and the play's history – its widely acclaimed 1978 production and 1985 film starring Meryl Streep – sounded promising. And an examination of how the war affected women is welcome, as it is not often that those stories are seen on the mainstage. But a crucial absence hinders this play; we never see what it is that drives Susan's self-destruction
The detachment of the play is exemplified in Mike Britton's set, a sterile series of walls that are repositioned for each scene. This feeling continues through the final scene, when a youthful Susan converses with a French farmer at the conclusion of the war about the possibilities of the future. Having witnessed the ruin of her hope, I should have felt devastated. Instead, I just felt relieved.

While in the field, it's important to know where you are, especially with a mobile app. In the mobile apps in my organization, staff need to enter information on site, so it's ideal to zoom to your current location when the app opens. Rather than having geolocation active at all times, we will give the user control using the locate button, but instead of having to click on the button to get your location on start up, we'll have the app start up with our current location. Just a shout out to Kelly Hutchins for helping me get this to work along with many other code questions that I have and will continue to have, I have doubt.
To get our locate button to work, we just need to update our application in four places:
Step 1
Add the element to your content or your html page.
Step 2
Define how it should display for presentation in you css.
#locateButton { position:absolute; top:140px; left:20px; z-index:50; }
Step 3
Add the information to your require statement.
"esri/dijit/LocateButton", // locateButton
Don't forget to add LocateButton as your variable in the function that follows the require statement references.
Step 4
Write the code to have the locate button run on startup.
// Begin geolocate button - https://community.esri.com/message/440082#440082 // add geolocate button to find the location of the current user map.on("load", function () { geoLocate = new LocateButton({ map: map, highlightLocation: true, useTracking: true, enableHighAccuracy: true }, "locateButton"); geoLocate.clearOnTrackingStop = true; geoLocate.startup(); geoLocate.locate(); }); // End geolocate button
As you can see the locate button runs as soon as you start the application. If the user wants to, they can click on the locate button again which will turn locate off and allow them to move around without the map updating.
That's all there is to it. Next up; we will add the overview map to this application. To see the code in it's entirety checkit out at https://github.com/csergent45/gisMobile
