This was Eamon's first full week of work at his new job.
It was important for me to take this week captive to start off with new, good habits so that he has confidence that the home is taken care of while he is back at work. So much of the past nine months has been "Oh, hey, Eamon, can you get that real quick?" while I deprioritize my family. I've been really nervous about the transition, and I have had a bit more anxiety, going to bed exhausted every night with a clean home has been so refreshing.
Here are some things that have helped:
- This mama said she never goes to bed with dirty dishes in the sink so (other than last night, yesterday was particularly craptastic) this week I made sure that I didn't either. It made our mornings go much smoother.
- Having an activity planned for the girls every day was also very helpful.
- I allowed myself one PJ day, but made sure I was dressed and my hair was brushed (not did, just de-bed-headed) and I showered more often (and with a preggo belly and two toddlers who do not understand "personal space" that is a daunting task that results in a very crowded shower)
- One of these mamas reminded me that the "Good mom's have messy floors and happy children" is kind of for the birds. Yes, your children's happiness is more important than a shiny floor, but a disorganized home, for me, is just added chaos in a sometimes very stressful environment. So taking control of my household to better serve my children is what makes me a "good mom." Not messy floors ;]
- I made sure the girls were also dressed, dressed, every day. If they took their clothes off, that's their prerogative, but at least I tried.
- I stuck to my daily to-dos, and made sure I had them every day.
I feel like 2012 was a very unorganized year for us. In 2011 I started a "Home Planning Folder" and it did wonders for our family. I got the idea from here nearly exactly like this:
In 2012, with Eamon and I both working from home, things got very confusing. And out of control.
So this week I went back and tried to gather my resources, knowing now what has worked, and what hasn't, and started going putting together my binder for this coming year. It will grow and change as the year moves on, but for now, this is what I have planned:
Family Members

Announcing Institution:
Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, IEK-1 – Materials Synthesis and Processing,
and University of Twente – Electrochemistry Research Group
Starting date: anytime
Duration: 7 Month
Field of activity
Oxygen transport membranes (OTM) show great potential in future oxygen supply for sustainable processes in energy applications, e.g. syngas production, fuel processing. OTM possess mixed ionic electronic conductivity (MIEC) and, hence, do not consume any electrical power.
Single-phase MIEC materials with perovskite structure show the highest permeability so far. However, high permeability comes along with limited stability. Therefore, dual phase composites attracted great interest to overcome this trade-off. Major advantage is the opportunity to choose two inherently stable materials with distinct conductivities. There is a great flexibility in materials selection, although it is (of course) constrained by several requirements. Major requirements are
- Chemical compatibility (no undesired reactions between the two phases),
- Comparable thermal expansion behaviour (to avoid internal cracks), and
- Percolation of ionic and electronic pathways (defining the quantity limits of
each phase).
The IEK-1 of Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH developed dual phase composites based on Gadolinia doped Ceria (Ce0.8Gd0.2O2, CGO) and a cobalt rich spinel (FeCo2O4, FCO) as ionic and electronic conductors, respectively. It turned out that a third phase forms during sintering, i.e. Gd- and Fe-rich perovskite (Gd,Ce)(Fe,Co)O3. This phase is electronically conductive and therefore contributes to oxygen permeation. However, initial tests showed that different synthesis routes led to a significant change in the oxygen permeation rate. Therefore, a systematic study on the influence of synthesis and processing on microstructure and successive performance is required.
Description of work
The aim of this work is to systematically study the influence of different synthesis routes on the microstructure of the sintered "dual phase membrane", which actually is a multiphase composite. Major routes are a Sol-Gel technique (Pechini-synthesis) as well as oxide mixing (CGO, Fe2O3, Co2O3) and subsequent (reactive) sintering. After a literature review, different powders are synthesized and sintered into dense pellets. The influence of the powder synthesis on the sintering process is investigated. The microstructure of the sintered specimens is determined by SEM quantitatively. The different microstructures will be correlated to the resulting performance, e.g. oxygen permeation in lab conditions, electrical conductivity relaxation etc.
Knowledge in materials science ideally ceramics; ability of hands-on lab work; good English skills

Jonathan Edwards has a new workshop on the horizon; Participants will learn to navigate the world of divination and to decipher the signs provided by the universe. In the interview below he talks about what we can expect from this new series, the role divination plays in his work as a healer, and how plants can be our guides through the realms of dreams and symbols.
"Divination Games" sounds fun and mysterious. What are they?
It's a good question. Divination is an old-fashioned word for how we can provoke the universe into furnishing us with signs and symbols to guide us along our path in life. This work, which is also play, is growing out of an interest in the power of randomness to open a space for meaningful coincidence. If you've ever had a really on-point Tarot reading or picked up just the right book at the right time, you have a sense of what I mean. Why the games? Zen teacher Suzuki said "what we're doing here is so important, we better not take it too seriously." I've found the best way to go deep is to take a playful approach. I've developed several simple games. Some are based more on words, some on pictures. One of them is a map-making game, a kind of psychological cartography.
How and where did your divination practice take shape?
It's been quite a winding road that's led me to this stuff! With quite a few left turns along the way (laughs). In a nutshell, I found that when I would experiment with a random process (like flipping coins to consult the I Ching), really interesting things tend to come up. So much so that it's sometimes a little scary--like, what's going on here? Who's talking to me? It's difficult to explain...it's like you're making use of a quantum loophole in the fabric of reality, to access messages from...somewhere else. Maybe it's the ancestors giving us hints, maybe it's our higher self or a future version of us like in the movie Interstellar. I don't really know. But it works amazingly well, and I've come to trust the process as a way of navigating my own life. It's led me to some incredible experiences. And so naturally I want to share these tools with others and empower folks to tap into this incredible source of guidance and wisdom.
Does this work influence your practice as an acupuncturists and herbalist at Brooklyn Acupuncture Project?
Yeah, both directly and indirectly. Directly in that I'll occasionally bust out the I Ching and do a reading with a patient, especially when there's a strong psycho-spiritual element to what's going on. Indirectly in that doing divination really led me down a rabbit hole, and that journey has had a strong influence on how I see the world and, by extension, how I practice in the clinic. .
Learning from plant teachers sounds like it's going to be difficult. How will we do that?
Coming from a secular, western family background, I was skeptical for a long time too. But I've come around to realize that we have everything we need--our five senses, our intuition--to communicate with plants directly. They're alive, they're intelligent, they have gifts and message for us. One goal of my work is to help people get back into direct relationship with nature, including the plants. Practically speaking, it's about sitting with plants, tasting them, and paying attention to what we experience. Some may get info through imagery, some more through bodily sensations, some through thought patterns. It's all potentially valid.
In the context of the divination games series, we'll work with a couple of plants that have a special resonance with this work. Mugwort is known for helping us access the world of dreams and symbols, to get into our non-linear brains. And Yarrow is an amazing ally for helping us get aligned with our life's work: to understand what that work is and to actually walk the walk. We'll invoke these teachers as patrons of sorts, we won't focus so much on the plants but they'll be there, guiding and directing us at every step of the way.
What inspired you to offer this series?
I want to share the joy and excitement that I've found in tapping into my gifts and passions and in clarifying my life's work. Hopefully people will walk away inspired, with many of their inner questions answered, and with fun and flexible tools for continuing the process as they go through life.
Why only 6 people per session? Why make it such an exclusive engagement?
I want to keep it intimate for the sake of having a safe, supportive group container. Without a container this kind of work can't really happen at all.

Arkansas Valley Regional Medical Center History
Arkansas Valley Regional Medical Center has a history that dates back to the early 1900's. In 1904, the Mennonite Sanitarium and Hospital was organized as a tuberculosis treatment center located in Swink, Colorado, about five miles west of La Junta. In 1919, the La Junta Hospital Association asked the management of the Mennonite Sanitarium and Hospital to operate the La Junta City Hospital, which was then located at the corner of 9th Street and Carson Street.
After managing the City Hospital for four years, the La Junta Hospital Association Board in 1924 proposed to the Mennonite Sanitarium Board that the Association would give all of its assets to the Mennonite Board if they would agree to build a general hospital of at least 50 beds and continue to do some charity work, and if the hospital would be open to the reputable physicians of the community. The proper authorization by the Mennonite Board of Missions and Charities of Elkhart, Indiana, was obtained. A dairy farm at the edge of town at the corner of 10th and Carson Street was purchased and is the site of the present hospital. By April of 1928, the hospital was open for business. The sanitarium patients from Swink were relocated to the new sanitarium, and the new hospital was in operation; the La Junta Mennonite School of Nursing was moved to the site of the old hospital at 9th and Carson. With these two buildings and the major addition of a south wing of the hospital building in 1947, the hospital provided care to La Junta and the surrounding communities. With the development of new treatments for tuberculosis, the sanitarium was closed in 1956. This building was used for a nursing home with the addition of Nursing Home West in 1963.
By 1964, the need for a new hospital facility become very apparent. The La Junta Community Hospital Corporation was formed, which had the authority to build a new facility. Bonds were issued and guaranteed by the Mennonite Board of Missions, and the new hospital construction was begun in 1969; in March of 1971, the new building was occupied. The Mennonite Board of Missions managed the Center under a management agreement from 1968 through 1998, at which time ownership of the hospital was turned back over to the City. A new not-for-profit corporation, Arkansas Valley Regional Medical Center, was formed, which took over operations of the Medical Center on July 1, 1998.

By Marc Bookman, Director, Atlantic Center for Capital Representation
The number one rule of the Internet is never read the comments. If you broke this rule over the last week, you might have seen the following in relation to the botched execution of Clayton Lockett in Oklahoma:
- 1) "if his lawyers were so concerned about the execution method failing perhaps they should have considered shooting him then burying him alive. it (sic) worked for his victim."
- 2)"I will do it for free ….I won't use a single tax payer dollar…Drop him off and come back in 5 minutes to pick up his body ….I am scared to think of the links (sic) I would go to if that were my family member.."
- 3) "Get a rope."
In short, these are the folks who believe that our community should act just like the murderers we condemn. It's enough to make you remember the penetrating question asked by that greatest and most imaginary of West Wing occupants, Jed Bartlet: "These people don't vote, do they?" More on that in a minute. What's important to keep in mind is that "these people" aren't us – for the overwhelming majority in this country, the events of the past weeks in Oklahoma were horrifying in their unpredictability, their arrogance, and their outcome. Let's take the concepts one at a time.
If there is a single word that must be included in the description of a constitutionally satisfactory execution, it is "predictable." And yet Oklahoma authorities went to extremes to guarantee that anything might happen: they used an untested combination of drugs, they refused to reveal where they had been obtained, and they fought all efforts by the defense to find out how the drugs had been made. (And Oklahoma is far from alone in this effort – in Georgia, a law is now in place declaring all information about lethal injection a "confidential state secret." Texas, where the next execution in the United States is scheduled for May 13th, has also recently reversed course and now maintains that the details of the killing protocol are not the condemned man's business.) When anything can happen, eventually it will.
The Oklahoma courts struggled with this regime of secrecy. They also struggled to decide whether the state supreme court or the court of criminal appeals had jurisdiction over the issue, a strange circumstance indeed considering the fact that the state has conducted well more than 100 executions in the modern era. After spending a week acting like petulant children fighting over the portions of dessert, the Oklahoma Supreme Court eventually stayed Lockett's execution, along with a second execution scheduled shortly thereafter, that of Charles Warner. This infuriated every other branch of the Oklahoma government. First, the state attorney general asked the Supreme Court to reconsider. When the Court quickly rejected the request, Governor Mary Fallin issued an executive order declaring that she could overrule the Supreme Court, and announced that the executions would take place two hours apart on the night of April 29th. While her authority to do so was being questioned by every law professor in the United States, a member of the Oklahoma legislature drafted a resolution to impeach the justices of the Oklahoma Supreme Court who had ordered the stay of the execution. That's when the Court caved, dissolved its stay, and allowed the executions to proceed. As the old song goes, it doesn't take a weatherman to know which way the wind is blowing.
The night of April 29th won't soon be forgotten by the witnesses to Clayton Lockett's execution. Seven minutes into the execution, prison officials checked to see if Mr. Lockett was unconscious – "I'm not," Lockett said. Three minutes later, he was declared unconscious; six minutes after that, Lockett said "man" and tried to lift himself off the gurney. All the while Lockett's body had been writhing, his mouth twitching. 16 minutes after the execution began, a prison official stated, "We are going to lower the blinds temporarily," a phrase that Andrew Cohen of The Atlantic aptly noted might serve as an epitaph for the entire sequence of events that had led to this debacle. Lockett's execution was then stayed by the state officials who were present, but he died of a heart attack 30 minutes later. As the lawyer for Warner described it, he was "tortured to death." Another lawyer called the execution a "human science experiment." As for Charles Warner, his execution has been delayed for several weeks while Oklahoma conducts an investigation into what went wrong. Governor Fallin has already gotten the investigation off to a bad start by assigning the inquiry to the state's public safety commissioner, who answers directly to…Governor Fallin.
What we are left with is the specter of government secrecy in our most public of government spectacles, the subversion of the rule of law by elected state officials, and the horror of an execution that would have been condemned had it occurred before our constitution was even written. At the very least, the events in Oklahoma should be yet one more reason for hesitation in Pennsylvania – indeed, two days after the botched execution, all of the candidates in the democratic primary for governor announced their support for a moratorium on the death penalty. And as to that first question: do "these people" vote? It's not really the right question. As an old client of mine liked to say, one thing is for sure and two things are for certain – we had better vote. Because the community gets the government it deserves, and we surely deserve better than what the Oklahoma government has delivered.

Farewell!by Yann ~ May 1st, 2012
The Wii Loop Machine project has now been drawn to a close. It was a super fun adventure, but I now have far too many other projects going on to keep this updated.
Check the software page for links to all of the software, and the video page to see me look ridiculous.
Feel free to get in touch with me if you have any questions about making music software for Wii remotes, or if you would like my Max/MSP patches.
And finally, here's my moment of glory on Dragons' Den.

Whenever I discussed a negative probability – like this one time (when road trips were taken as a family very often) we were travelling down the middle of a pitch dark forest patch I wondered aloud to my dad what if two of our car tyres got punctured. He was of course irritated with my thought process and told me about the principle denoted by the three monkeys in our mantelpiece back home – Do not think or speak or hear bad thoughts.
Back then I must have been in my 2nd standard or so. By now I have begun to fully appreciate the power of positive thinking but I must say it has never stopped me from fearing adverse circumstances I might suddenly be thrown into and get uprooted from all the blessings I am thankful for in my life. My worst fear is that of losing a loved one to some kind of bad situation – which could be separation, a sudden cold distance that sucks the joy out of you like a dementor or worse death!
I just cannot get rid of this very bad habit – I sometimes feel very depressed to the point of wallowing in self pity over such imagined situations! Especially when I fight with a loved one I unconsciously become the first person to seal a peace pact for I feel life is too short to have an ego hassle over who is right or wrong. I am too happy to brush issues under the carpet if it guarantees that peace and love will overflow in abundance! Is that weak? I seriously don't give a damn! The larger picture more often consumes my imagination and fuels my actions!
The only mock positive out of this whole fictional fear fiasco is that I try not to lean on anyone too much for am afraid they will end up hurting me one day or leaving me for good. It sometimes prevents me from being true to myself. It replaces a smile with a poker face, words with silence and sharing with withdrawal. However, the rest of the time, emotions sway me like the wind sets the course for a sail and very often I find being dependent on other people is a natural outcome of any form of social existence and there are some whom you just cannot live without! They envelope you, embed themselves in your life and there is no way in hell you can remove yourself from them in any form of emotional equation! You draw strength, joy, confidence, emotional security and motivation like fresh air for your soul from them and before you know it you become dependent! …and Fear continues to haunt you!

See the article here:
"They theorized that because self-affirmation has been shown to make us more open to threats and unfavorable feedback, it should also make us more attentive and emotionally receptive to the errors that we make."
What's interesting is that the researchers defined 'self-affirmation' as a process of "focusing on the important qualities that make us who we are." Instead of focusing on self-affirmation as a single thought or incident.
The surprising discovery is that contrary to popular belief self-affirmation can actually help a person ADMIT their mistakes and makes that person more resilient when faced with having made a mistake.
There is an actual neurophysiological response to errors. It's called the error-related negativity response. "The ERN is a pronounced wave of electrical activity in the brain that occurs within 100 ms of making an error on a task." Fascinating that there is a wave of electrical activity after making a mistake!! I wonder where this electrical wave originates?
Through this study we can actually see how receiving negative reinforcement after making a mistake as children imprints us with a heavy sense of threat when faced with an error. "To increase the sense of threat in the task, participants were given negative feedback ("Wrong!") when they made a mistake."
Not only did the self-affirmation group show more resilience to mistakes but their performance actually improved!
They actually made fewer errors!
We can actually regulate our defensiveness when faced with an error – this mechanism is the key success difference between people who can admit and learn from their mistakes versus those that resist and deny their error. In turn, this openness to threat and receptivity to error also makes us more resilient and better task performers! Such a simple study with far-reaching implications on a cultural level. Although psychology had previously determined self-esteem to be an important component of living as healthy individuals, there is much skepticism in our society about approaching mistakes with an open mind – in some circles this is somehow considered ineffective.
The cultural attitude is that humility (receptivity) is somehow in conflict with self-affirmation. Also that self-affirmation prevents people from seeing their mistakes. This study shows just the opposite. Self-affirmation can allow us to admit our humanity and our mistakes with it.
Now if we can just find that sweet spot between too much self-affirmation to the detriment of being able to see mistakes.
Perhaps one day we will have a portable EEG sensing device that will track the spectrum of "error response" and we can correlate that to our level of self-affirmation or lack thereof. These are fascinating times!

Singapore air traffic is up
Total traffic for the first eight months now stands at 27.38 million, a year-on-year jump of 15.9 per cent.
Changi Airport Group, which released its monthly data on Wednesday, said that traffic to and from Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia led the growth in passenger traffic last month, with double-digit growth was recorded for both regions.
Tiger Airways, Lion Air and Cathay Pacific were among airlines that increased frequencies with more flights to cities such as Bangkok, Hong Kong, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur. The long National Day weekend also contributed to the traffic growth, the airport said.
On the cargo front, airfreight movements grew 9.7 percent with 155,000 tonnes of freight. For the first eight months of 2010, a total of 1.19 million tonnes of cargo were handled, up 15 per cent compared to 2009.
There were 22,368 aircraft movements in August, an increase of 9.1 per cent. This brings the January to August total to 172,971 movements, up 10.4 per cent from the same period last year.
