Moving forward
iXledger has achieved a great deal in its first year!
We're working to develop our products with our various partners. At the same time, we're taking strides on our core Marketplace, which will truly set us apart in the field.
Commercial Development
The Engineering team has been hard at work. Their development of a professional social network for unisonSteadfast is gaining pace, and will be a highly valuable asset for them as a brokerage network.
But our team is also continuing to develop the iXledger Marketplace. Engineering is writing additional microservices in Node.js, and associated front-end screens in React.
Meanwhile, R&D is ongoing for a particular aspect of Ethereum blockchain technology. Last week we launched our Engineering Blog, to give insights into working on the technology at iXledger.
Furthermore we have also made good progress on the insurance policy lifecycle. Being able to cover the whole cycle from applying for a policy to receiving any claims is critical to our mission as an InsurTech.
The new elements that we have laid out are the quoting stage; live insurance policy; and the renewal stage. Obviously a live insurance policy has more granular components, which we have also identified and laid out.
In a nutshell, there are funds going in and (potentially) out of the policy, in the form of premiums and claims respectively. This is coupled with potential changes, also known as endorsements. Endorsements are also split into different types being:
- Change in policy terms and conditions
- Change in insurance handlers
- Changes that do not affect the policy terms and conditions
At the same time we are working to deliver the relaunch of selfinsurancemarket.com.
The new website will provide an area where brokers, captive managers; third party administrators; excess insurers, or any other type of self-insurance provider can interact with each other to do business easily.
Still a lot more for us to do, but we strive to overcome each new challenge in our way. Stay tuned!

Book Description
Modern food habits, vis-à-vis lifestyle, has started taking its toll in the form of obesity, depression, auto-immune diseases, spondylosis, arthritis, cardiac disorders, insomnia, cancer, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, osteoporosis and many other ailments. Keeping pace with the demand for lifestyle food, food companies are producing more and more synthetic food or processed food. This is one dimensional food, i.e. food for food's sake. We are on the verge of forgetting that food has other roles to serve in our body, mind and soul too. Food has other dimensions to act, i.e. to serve as medicine as well. The concept of functional food or nutraceuticals, though it sounds new, has its roots in the traditional food habits of great cultures like Indian, Chinese, Mediterranean or Greek, which have survived thousands of years of trials and errors. Hippocrates (c. 460 – c. 370 BC), the great Greek philosopher, had said "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"Therefore, we should go back to basics and eat only food that possesses drug properties as well. A host of food plants are available around us which have the capacity to alleviate several modern day life-style diseases. The traditional 'sāk', 'sabjee' and whole grain foods are to name a few. The line between drug tablets and nutraceuticals is rapidly becoming narrower. The nutrients in cereals have shown to possess the property of reducing the risk of diabetes, coronary heart dysfunction, tumour incidence, higher blood cholesterol etc. The garlic has immunomodulatory function among other innumerable nutraceuticals. The sages of Rigveda have said, "Plant! Thus I hail thee, the Divine Mother of mankind." - Rigveda 10.97.4. The authors in this book have tried their best to give glimpses of information about the medicinal plants surrounding us that have dietetic as well as antioxidant properties and tried to answer the moot question of sufferings of modern society.

"Sexting" is the act of sending sexually explicit messages and/or photos via cell phones.
Police in Manassas City, Virginia, are raising eyebrows nationwide by requesting photos of a teen boy's erect penis in a sexting case.
The Washington Post reports authorities and Prince William County prosecutors want a picture of a 17-year-old's erection to compare with evidence from his iPhone. The male, identified by NBC as Trey Simms, allegedly sent a sexually explicit video to his 15-year-old girlfriend after she shared nude photos of herself.
After the girl's mother filed a complaint, Simms was served with petitions from juvenile court. The case was reportedly first dismissed in June when prosecutors forgot to certify that he was a juvenile, but new charges and a search warrant led to his arrest last week. The defendant's lawyer, Jessica Harbeson Foster, told the Post that police then took photos of his genitals against his will.
"The prosecutor's job is to seek justice," Foster said. "What is just about this? ... This is a 17-year-old who goes to school every day, plays football, has never been in trouble with the law before. Now he's saddled with two felonies and the implication that he's a sexual predator."
NBC reports Simms is charged with manufacturing and distributing child pornography. If convicted, he could be forced to register as a sex offender and serve time in prison.
The girl, who has not been named, has not been charged.
The Post reports Simms pleaded not guilty in court July 1, and a new search warrant called for pictures of his erect penis. Foster told the newspaper that lead investigator David E. Abbott planned to "take [Simms] down to the hospital, give him a shot [to make him erect] and then take the pictures that we need."
Foster said Abbott told her that he would then "use special software to compare pictures of this penis to this penis. Who does this? It's just crazy."
Several publications across the country appear to have agreed with Foster's perspective. New York Magazine called the case "shameful," Gawker called it "insane," and Mediaite compared the whole story to a "bad SNL sketch."
Simms' next court date is set for July 15.

Shannonwatch Press Release - Feb 23rd 2016
A total of 116 candidates have committed to restoring Ireland's neutrality in response to a Peace Pledge drafted by the main peace and anti-war groups in Ireland. These candidates have said they will only support or join a Government that is prepared to end the US military use of Shannon Airport.
"This is a very important commitment in terms of Ireland's foreign policy" said John Lannon of Shannonwatch, one of the organisations behind the Peace Pledge. "It is also in line with the wishes of the Irish people. Polls consistently show that over two thirds of the population want a neutral Ireland that is not involved in wars of aggression or occupation. But by allowing Shannon Airport to be used as a US military base we are contributing to war and human rights abuse. The next government must end this practice and restore Irish neutrality."
All 50 Sinn Fein candidates are committed to supporting the Peace Pledge as are the Anti Austerity Alliance / People before Profit and the Workers Party. A number of candidates from the Green Party, Social Democrats and other parties, as well as Independents, have also signed up.
One of the first to sign the Peace Pledge was Richard Boyd Barrett TD who is also chairperson of the Irish Anti War Movement.
"The fact that not a single candidate from Fine Gael, Labour, Fianna Fail or Renua has signed the Peace Pledge is telling" said Edward Horgan of the Peace and Neutrality Alliance (PANA). "These parties may well have instructed their candidates to refuse to sign anything that helps protect our neutrality or diminish our role in military alliances. In doing so they are contributing to the death and suffering of millions of people, and to the refugee crises we have today."
A neutral state is subject to certain rules and obligations under international law, in particular the Hague Convention on Neutrality which states that "belligerents" are forbidden to move troops or convoys of either munitions of war or supplies across the territory of a neutral Power. "The movement of US military troops through Shannon Airport means that Ireland is in breach of its obligations as a neutral state, as does the participation of Ireland in military alliances like the NATO Partnership for Peace and European Union battlegroups." said John Lannon.
Irish neutrality is important because it enables the citizens of a small state like Ireland to promote international peace and justice and to protect human life and human rights. The organisers of the Peace Pledge emphasise this as an alternative to participation in destructive and unjustified wars and killing.
The Peace Pledge is available for signing on http://www.peacepledge.ie. A full list of supporting candidates is also available on the website.

A Matter of Expediency?
Election time is coming around for the Hampton folk.
Some elections may generate more heat than others.
"Skip" Heaney, for example, is generally expected to refill his Supervisor's seat for his last two year term in January of "08.
Although, anything can happen in this best of all possible Hamptons.
However, to give Heaney a run for his money (or Southampton Town's money) there's a newcomer on the block - James Henry - a Sag Harbor lawyer and Harvard Law graduate - who's actually savvy in politics AND has some ethics. He also recently settled a case with the Village of Southampton that permits war protestors the right to march in parades. As a resident of Sag Harbor for over a decade he displays and unusual combination of intelligence, toughness and moral responsibility.
Henry has just recently announced his candidacy and it should be interesting to see what the platforms are for both candidates. Other than an anti-Latino, "round 'em up and run 'em out of town" platform - Heaney may have to profess to stand for something if he winds up being opposed without Hal Ross around to threaten Henry if he doesn't drop out. At least that's what Heaney's "consultant" did to the last two candidates that tried to run against him.
Seems that the Justice Courts in Southampton and East Hampton have been busy. In fact, Southampton Town Justice Court is reputed to be the busiest in the country. Despite that, they cannot seem to get their act together and follow the rules of the Court system - having, for years, defied the requirement that there be at least one evening session per month. Still no word on whether this will ever happen.
Even more important for both courts is the fact that at least two of the judges in each court may have no right to be there. And, that would imply that the warrants, evictions, rulings and decisions, in strict interpretation - are of questionable validity.
Well, it seems that there is this little requirement that one must sign an oath of office within 30 days of being elected or re-elected and file it with the County Clerk, the Town Clerk and the Office of Court Administration. Neither Wilson nor Kooperstein in Southampton nor Cahill and Rana in East Hampton - and Wilson, again, in Southampton Village - have apparently followed those rules. This is not something a judge can just decide to take care of later. Once the deadline is missed, it's over. So, we have Wilson in Village of Southampton and Town of Southampton, Kooperstein in the Town of Southampton as well as Rana and Cahill in East Hampton -- perhaps needing to step down, if the rules are observed.
This little faux pas was discovered by attorney Patricia Weiss of Sag Harbor and apparently Newsday has picked up on this little tidbit and is investigating the matter.
Should be interesting to see how this plays out.
Political gossip also has it that Eddy Burke is the likely Fourth Judge position to be filled in Town Justice Court. Burke was a Pataki choice for Court of Claims but now that Spitzer is Governor, the Fourth judge position is looking more appealing. The numbers work out better too. While Heaney was reportedly holding back on allocating that slot for a friend, previously thought to be Thiele, Burke's political dilemma and optimum retirement benefits combo (a bigger pension from two sources) has Heaney ready to act.
It's nice to have people looking out for you.
Gossip also has it that Marcus Stinchi, the Town Republican Party head, has been targeting businesses in Westhampton Beach where he has his landscaping business. If you piss him off he runs to his friends in the Town and makes life difficult. Stinchi has Houlihan, the current Westhampton Beach Building Inspector (formerly the Building Inpector of Southampton Town) who was imported to Westhampton Beach after there were so many lawsuits filed that former Mayor Bob Strebel did a favor and took him in -- as well as Bridget Napoli, the Code Enforcement officer -- to do his bidding. If Stinchi reports that he doesn't like someone, "Skip" picks up the phone and Houlihan and Napoli go to work. That's not nice. But, at least, now we all know it. It explains a lot of the apparent anti-business sentiment that the current Mayor had wrongly been accused of.
Stay Tuned.

The Student English Association is one of XJTLU's newest, largest and most dynamic clubs, run with guidance and support from the Language Centre. It is the result of eight separate clubs merging to produce a comprehensive range of social, cultural and academic activities which are frequently attended by Language Centre tutors.
While the focus of these activities is to provide students with opportunities to improve their English skills, there is also an emphasis on making friends, developing new skills and learning about the rest of the world.
The ever-increasing list of events includes: debating competitions, singing groups, English Corner, book discussion, culture lectures, speaking competitions, festival celebrations, film screenings, TV series discussions, a student-run English newsletter and theatre performances. Events are promoted by direct email, through posters, in the student-led English magazine and through social media like Renren. Most activities are free and open to all XJTLU students, however, there is also a special programme of events for club members.
While the club has extensive support from the Language Centre, a student-led corporate structure has been established that offers senior students the opportunity to acquire leadership experience in addition to applying what they have learnt in their studies.

"Why does Bear have to get fixed so that he can't make babies? He's a boy, and boys don't have babies." I said we would sit and talk it all over on the weekend (when I get my wits and a good stiff drink in me) She said,"Is it gross?" I said, "Well, you might think so." She wrinkled up her nose, pondered for a minute, and said,"Then I don't want to hear about it." Do you think I am saved for a little while?
Nah, I didn't think so.
By the way, I don't know why it is called "getting fixed", when BEFORE the surgery, they work just fine! So, I guess Bear is out "getting broken".

This is a knitting blog, right?
I have, in my stash, a whole lot of Manos del Uruguay, in a heady mix of purples-from the deepest, richest royal, through to plum and a blueish-reddish slice of heaven- I just LOVE the colours! And I had thought to make a textured cardigan (the texture does help to break up the variegation somewhat)-started it, and hated it- it was a shapeless, heavy mass of purple that made the yarn look rather cheap and undignified (and I didn't need any help in that department, thank you very much). Soooo-enter Simply Knit 2 (I think the Simply Knit books are divine) and this little number- called Waiting for Godot- I love the ruffly bit-SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO- I made the back, with the ruffly bit, but longer-and a few short rows in the centre, so the flirty bits hang a bit in the centre. And- the front is going to be Non-ruffly bit (I am afraid that the ruffle s may fit a little too well)-just plain- maybe with an icord border. The sleeves will have the ruffly bit- just one of these pleats-to hang a bit over my hand- I will include the collar-maybe even modify it a bit-and there you go. I have the back knit-to the armpits- the ruffly bits are just gorgeous- there are even bobbles at the top of the ruffly bit- and I think this will be a really interesting use of this yarn (please note- when I use the word "interesting" that doesn't always mean a good thing-this time it does). What I am hoping to get out of this is a sweater/jacket that I can wear when a slightly dressier look is needed. My staff party is in a week and a bit-but also report cards-due this Friday)(details, trivialities!)-I have a ruffled shirt (cream), black velvet jeans- and this purple sweater-I hope I can finish it!

You are The Empress
Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.
The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents,
beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home
decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.
The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

Family and Pick Up Sticks
I was zooming around, and heard that the Yarn Harlot herself had talked about Pick Up Sticks- a Canadian on line yarn store with lots and lots of pretty stuff. AND- apparently a 10% discount for the next few days. And free shipping over 60 bucks! All of the prices are in Canadian dollars. I LOVE Apple Laine yarns- so I think I might just mosey myself over there-there is a fiver kit for a garter shawl that has my name written all over it! Go and see for yourself- http://www.pickupsticks.ca/

The Bear, and a Gnome Hat
If you haven't seen the biggest sucky animal in the world yet, well, get yerself an eyeful of this guy. He likes to crawl up and get all four paws on his intended victim (usually me, but sometimes the 8 year old or the husband unit) And then he squeezes his eyes shut and plays possum, until he actually DOES fall asleep!
And this picture is one of Mr. Bear just before he starts his move upwards to find a nice warm place to snuggle.
He has absolutely no clue that he is a big galoot. And with a face like that-hmm, I suspect he will get into lots of trouble.
Knitting news- I have started a hat for my niece- she wants something warm, covering her ears and part of her neck, soft, ties on somehow, and doesn't need a pompom. Soooo- I went to see what the handy dandy world of knit bloggers had to offer me and lo and behold! I checked out Knitting Iris (a very interesting blog) and she had a hat! And here is the pattern! (RUBY! this one is the one I was talking about)http://community.livejournal.com/knitting/75126.html seemed to have all of the parameters sorted out. I had a couple of balls of the new Patons soy and wool-looks like it will take more than one ball-so I have it started- I will take a picture when it is done, because now, it really doesn't look like much. You knit a ribbed square- in a very particular way- and then graft the ends together-the hat ends up with a pointy top, you add a little garter stitch knitted band that buttons closed-LOVE IT! (pattern is apparently based on something from the 1940's-a baby hat) Oh heck- just go see it here- http://knittingiris.typepad.com/knitting_iris/2006/10/index.html
I will let you know how it all works out-

Rowan DK
I just picked up my package from the post office-10 beautiful skeins of Rowan DK in GOBLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah! The best. I got it on ebay-from Cucumberpatch UK -excellent price AND free shipping to boot. (Thanks Mandy!http://yanegeddon.com) I already have 10 skeins in Thor (a lovely, strong, grey flannel with a smidge of brown)-and it hasn't "spoken" to me...........yet-but this goblin green-it is like fresh peas, but with bits of yellow and blue and just a great tweed! But what to make? I was thinking of just a plain, raglan sleeved cardigan-let the yarn do the show off work. I have a store bought cardi in black cotton/wool that I love-except that it has 3/4 sleeves- I could reproduce it in the wool, right? And fix the sleeves issue. This sweater is knit at a tighter than average gauge-the result is a dense, "comfy" fabric-really easy to wear. The sweater has some pretty fancy buttons up the front with snaps on the back of each button-I am thinking some ribbon up the insides of the fronts, with snaps and buttons-hmmmmmmm. I am liking this idea. I have a rough time with buying clothes that fit-since I am about a 20 on top and a 16-18 on the bottom. But this sweater is a perfect fit-so if I just knit the pieces to match the ready-made-shouldn't be an issue. Hey-maybe I will write it up as I go, so that anyone who wants to re-create an existing garment can do so. What do you think? Anyone up for a Knit A Long with me?
I haven't worn the entrelac yet-I made it slightly smaller than I wanted, because my experience with Noro anything is stretch. So I think I will give it a bath, block it, and then do a show and tell.
Have a great weekend, whatever you are doing..............................
Added later----I was in the Cataraqui Mall today, at 11:00 am- the post was played over the loudspeakers- and everyone (except for one annoying person on her cell phone) stopped what they were doing and stood silently for two minutes. makes you proud to be Canadian. And to remember.....
I just got an email to check out the Harlot-apparently, she thinks I am far gone....... ya might want to go and see.......http://www.yarnharlot.ca/blog/(I didn't have the heart to tell her that I made a whole entrelac coat- and then traded it to a friend for 20 balls of Silk garden)

The Bear still has the, um, same issues he had last week with his system-vet suggests we give him acidopholus (sp?) to get his innards back in balance-BUT-the good news- he gained weight. So the idea that he has Crohn's is a little farther away today. Keep your fingers crossed-his personality is spectacular, and he is a natural comic-two characteristics that endear doggies to me. And I am afraid he has bonded-with my 8 year old (her comment after we had had Bear for a week---"thank you so much for getting me a puppy that likes me") Yeah-he's stayin'

This month I bought a few things but apart from the leather jacket I ended returning all of it. I only keeping things that I really love and fit me well. I am looking for a replacement for my Topshop black skinnies, they weren't black any longer. I guess I washed them too much. I bought a pair from Asos and also a new neon pink bikini! I only wear color in my bikinis, last year's is burnt orange : ) I needed a new one, last summer I nearly lost my top in the swimming pool…one of the bands got broken.
I am trying not to spend much money, the leather jacket was bought with Ebay selling (really hard work), the bikini (10GBP) and the jeans (24GBP) were on sale. I also bought a couple of cheap tops from Forever 21, one very similar to this one that I wore so much it's nearly dead.
I buy things that are tried and tested and also not expensive. First I don't have much money to spend and second there are things I don't think it's worth it to spend more money on (like cotton tops). Shopping this way I don't add more things into my closet, I only buy things If something get trashed or sold.
I just realized below outfit is very similar to the last post. Over the weekend I wore Topshop Jamie skinnies, AA grey t shirt and Oysho sneakers with my leather jacket.
I am starting to wear this Pull & Bear sweater again with the cropped skinnies from Zara and Repetto flats. I love the stars top but last week one of the sleeves unraveled and I had to take back to Zara, they sew it and looks ok now. They wanted to give me the money black (good) but I love it so I was the one that suggested to mend it. The stars are back, hopefully for good : )

Pan Seared Pork Tenderloin with Maple Peppercorn Glaze
- 6 each Pork Tenderloins
- Salt
- 1 oz Fresh Rosemary
- 8 oz Pure NY Maple Syrup
- 12 oz Demi Glace
- 1 oz Whole Black Peppercorns
- 2 oz Garlic
- 3 pounds New York Chef Potatoes
- 8 oz Cabot AA Butter
- 16 oz Whole Milk
- 24 oz New York Snipped Green Beans
Rub the tenderloins with a very little pure maple syrup, a very small amount of salt, and some chopped fresh rosemary.
Cover and allow to sit a few hours or overnight.
Crack the whole peppercorns under a heavy sauce pan, and lightly coat the pork chops.
In a large saute pan, sear the tenderloin until well browned all over.
Place the pork in an oven proof pan, and move to a hot oven. Cover loosely with foil, and roast until just barely done.
Remove the tenderloin from the pan, and deglaze the pan with a little stock.
Add some pure maple syrup, and the demi glaze.
Bring to a good boil, and correct the consistency and seasonings.
Slice the tenderloin, not too thin, and arrange over garlic mashed potatoes, or pasta, or rice.
Drizzle with sauce, and add a sprig of fresh rosemary.
Saute the whole green beans, after they've been blanched, and arrange around the plate.

According to Oxygen Mag, a gym enthusiast should judge his or her progress in the gym using training goals. Soreness should not be the sole basis. For active people, they relate soreness with progress. According to a recent study, this isn't actually accurate.
The study divided their subjects into two groups. It included those who were exposed to gym training and newbies. Both groups participated in the same eight-week high-force program. Check out the results of the experiment below:
Gain Without Pain
For many active women, soreness days after a workout is a sign that you did something right. But if sitting down after leg day makes you cringe, was your workout more effective? Experts say not necessarily. Read more…
Adonis Athletics says that there is a consistent trend among physically active people. It always goes down to this saying: "no pain, no gain." There are gym-goers who complain that their workout may not be enough because they aren't sore or they didn't feel anything anymore.
Again, it's based on the idea that muscle damage characterized by pain is needed for the muscle to grow and for you to see improvement. This isn't true, and this belief may even be stopping you from achieving your goals.
Is Muscle Soreness Indicative Of Gains?
Too often will I hear people complain that the workout wasn't good because they aren't sore, or they want to change up their program because they don't get sore the next day anymore. Read more…
When you've just finished a really great and intense workout at the gym, you tend to increase your load in your next session or you stop this routine and try a new one. You feel awesome when you do this and it's going to feel like hell tomorrow.
This is all because you thought that pain is totally necessary for massive gains. Well, the thing is, that's not always the case.
The Daily Burn tells us more about DOMS and the myths associated with it. Let's tackle them as we get to know more about muscle soreness and its effects.
No Pain, No Gain? 5 Myths About Muscle Soreness
Enter delayed onset muscle soreness, better known as DOMS. It's an acronym that athletes and fitness buffs wear with pride. DOMS is most pronounced when you introduce a new training stimulus — a new activity, increased intensity or volume — or if you are new to physical activity in general. Read more…
Check out Mario's discussion about muscle soreness:
In order to aid you in your workouts and definite gains in muscle, give this one a try. MusclePharm's Combat Whey Protein Isolate is all you need to boost your workout regimen.
After a good gym session, your muscles are out of nutrients. This drink's purpose is to supply your body with concentrated protein to let you build those muscles and facilitate recovery. Give this one a shot and you'll be good to go.

Topic Page: Gower, John (1325-1408)
English medieval poet
Born in Kent, he spent most of his life in London and had contacts with the court in the service of Richard II and Henry IV. A friend of Chaucer, he wrote Speculum Meditantis ("The Mirror of Thought"), in French verse, which was discovered at Cambridge only in 1898, and 50 French ballads. Other works include the Vox Clamantis ("The Voice of One Crying Out"), elegiacs in Latin (1382-84) describing the rising under Wat Tyler, the long English poem Confessio Amantis ("A Lover's Confession", c.1383), consisting of over 100 stories taken from Ovid's Metamorphoses, the Gesta Romanorum ("History of the Romans") and medieval histories of Troy. Gower was blind from about 1400.

Market Watch: Summer Squash
I love summer squash sautéed or roasted, but what about raw? Check out these two squash recipes full of fresh flavor and, best of all, there's no cooking required!
Between my CSA and bi-weekly trips to the farmers' market, I've got quite a bit of squash hanging out in my kitchen. My favorites are green and yellow zucchini (that's right, zucchini can also be yellow), crookneck (also yellow) and a new variety I just discovered called "kuskus" that's a little wider than zucchini with a pale green skin.
A drizzle of good olive oil, a sprinkle of cheese and some simple seasonings are all you need to enhance the flavor of this summertime veggie. Here are two no-cook variations that won't leave you missing your oven or a heavy squash casserole:
- Zucchini Carpaccio
- Summer Squash Carpaccio (shown above)

Sue Monk and Lachlan Hurse from Jumping Fences organised Foco Nuevo during 2008 where they presented a mix of musical styles that extends the folk tradition.
This regular music event was held on the last Friday of each month and featured a diversity of guest singer-songwriters and musicians.
Notices about upcoming 'Foco Nuevo' are posted on WBT regularly with recordings, images and videos.
This feature on Foco Nuevo is a tribute really, a tribute to two political musos, Sue Monk and Lachlan Hurse, consistent in their art and politics over a period of more than 20 years.
Their band Jumping Fences has included many fine musicians over the years. At Foco Nuevo these included: Ross Gwyther on sax and clarinet (to me he plays like Akker Bilk), James Harper on percussion, and Dan Simpson on drums. They are often accompanied beuatifully on vocals by Leonor Orellana. They have been accompanied also by Rob ' Santana' Stewart on lead guitar. Rob is from 'Little Secrets'.
Sue and Lachlan put Foco Nuevo together and with the help of local musicians and dedicated helpers like Maggie, Allea, Manal, Kate and Mara made it a success.
The audiences in 2008 were a good appreciative crowd that contributed to its independence and appeal.

Still energy from the west, wrapping around the island both from the south and the north. Probably a bit more energy from the south, as the kihei and lahaina webcam show below.
The usual WNW fetch from the typhoon of Japan. I circled also the SW fetch of the Kilo storm, because just by looking at the nature of those waves in Lahaina, it is possible that we're receiving some energy from that too.

Why Growth in Emerging Economies Is Likely to Fall
Emerging-market growth from 2000 to 2012 was extraordinarily high. Åslund cites several factors to explain why emerging-economy growth is likely to be lower in the future. Having caught up with advanced economies in many respects, these countries face limitations on their future catch-up potential. The extraordinary credit and commodity booms are over, and many large emerging economies are financially fragile. They have governance problems and need to carry out structural reforms. The advanced economies, by contrast, have undertaken fiscal consolidation and structural reforms following the recent financial crisis and should experience higher growth rates.

Claire O'Mahony: Celeb wombwatch only makes the lives of ordinary mums that much harder
We're only a week into 2013 but already it appears that it's going to be the year of the celebrity baby. 'Wombwatch' – terrible word – is going to be unavoidable.
That there is already a strong baby-bump obsession is a fact. When Beyonce announced she was pregnant in 2011, there were an incredible 8,868 tweets per second on Twitter, following her news.
Of course, a celebrity doesn't even have to be pregnant to become part of the pregnancy rumour mill – all it takes is a little post-lunch bloat for the "is she/isn't she?" speculation to begin.
Arguably, the world's most famous victim of Wombwatch is Jennifer Aniston. If the 43-year-old actress had actually been pregnant as many times as the tabloids had claimed, she would have at least 18 children by now.
However, if you thought that the frenzy of interest surrounding the Duchess of Cambridge's pregnancy was over the top, best to batten down the hatches after last's week's news of another royal baby that will be born this year – but this one will be the progeny of rap and reality TV royalty, namely Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.
You don't really need to know who 'Kimye' – as they have been deemed – are to appreciate that we will be subjected to every detail of Kim's pregnancy over the coming months. Confinement, as pregnancy was traditionally called, will not apply here.
As is fitting for a couple who live out their lives through the paparazzi lenses, Kanye shared their happy news with the world live on stage at a gig in Atlanta. After saying "Stop the music", the rapper then declared: "Make noise for my baby mama right here," pointing to his girlfriend who was sitting in the audience. She, apparently, had no idea that he was going to break the news like that, but when the minutiae of her life is already known to her 17,101,027 followers on Twitter, Kanye's public revelation was unlikely to have sent her into a state of shock.
It's not just good news for the couple personally – it's good news for E! Entertainment, which has commissioned another two series of 'Keeping Up with The Kardashians', and for the burgeoning Kardashian empire, as no doubt Kim – who already hawks clothing lines and perfumes and is the face of numerous brands including a diet pill – will find lucrative ways to make the most of this pregnancy, and baby.
In keeping with the family tradition of giving everyone a name beginning with a K (there's also mother Kris, and sisters Khloe, Kourtney, Kylie and Kendall) this baby should probably be called Kerching!
As for the Windsor baby, ever since the news was announced on December 3 of last year, speculation on everything from the baby's (or babies', maybe it's twins) name, gender and upbringing to Kate's pregnancy wardrobe and food cravings have been given column inches.
The coverage has abated a little bit now but you can expect it to ratchet up as milestones occur, such as the first proper photo of Kate's bump, with things completely exploding around the time of the birth in July.
But why the fascination with what is one of the most natural things in the world and something that about 134 million women do a year?
For the ordinary pregnant woman struggling with indigestion, extreme fatigue and varicose veins, the glamorisation of celebrity pregnancies is not helpful and the post-pregnancy precedent that many celebrities have set of bouncing back into shape a few weeks after the birth, especially not.
The Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima took to the catwalk a mere eight weeks after giving birth to her daughter, in skimpy red lace underwear.
While common sense suggests this is beyond the capabilities of most women, it still creates the notion that maybe, just maybe, this is something new mums should aspire to.
Wombwatch also feeds the objectification of women's bodies and commentaries on their weight. As the online magazine 'Salon' put it in an article: "Get out of Jessica Simpson's womb, the tabloid obsession with celebrity baby-bumps reduces women to their uterus."
But, of course, new babies are always good news and we are now accustomed to delving so far into celebrities' lives that we know what they snack on and where they buy their bed linen, so pregnancy was never going to be any different. But just be warned: it's going to be a long six months.

Devon County Council has welcomed the Local Government Association's (LGA) calls for local authorities to be given powers to tackle lorry drivers that flout height and weight restrictions.
The LGA, which represents councils in England and Wales, wants all lorry drivers who use satnavs to be compelled to use commercial models which enable the driver to enter the lorry's dimensions so they are only guided along suitable roads.
It's asking the Government to enable councils to take enforcement action where necessary to enforce weight and width restrictions.
In Devon, there have been more than a dozen incidents in the past two years involving HGVs which have ended up on unsuitable roads while using their sat navs. This includes a lorry which shed its load of pig flesh at Lower Marlpits Hill in Honiton, in November last year. And in 2012, a lorry became jammed in New Road in Bickleigh, near Plymouth, for more than 24 hours, and a delivery lorry became wedged on the corner of Cross Street and High Street in Barnstaple.
Devon County Council is also due to install CCTV cameras at Holne New Bridge, near Ashburton, in order to protect the Grade II listed structure, which has been damaged 67 times in the past 18 years.
Councillor Stuart Hughes, Devon County Council Cabinet Member for Highway Management, said: "I'm pleased that the LGA has raised this issue. We recognise that it goes beyond being a nuisance for communities and significant damage can be caused, not just to buildings and historic structures such as Holne New Bridge, but also degradation over time of the highway itself. This includes increased numbers of potholes, verges being destroyed and damaged footways.
"At this point we're extremely limited in meaningful action that can be taken against companies given the evidence required to pursue a case and signage often seems to be ignored. We would also welcome companies helping themselves by making it clear to their hauliers the nature of the local highway network and appropriate routes to follow when accessing their sites."
The Government has handed powers under the Traffic Management Act (2004) to local authorities in Wales, and London (under different legislation), to take action if lorry drivers break the law. The LGA says Councils across the country should be handed the same powers.

What is an ID3 tag? Wikipedia does a pretty good job at summing it up in stating that, "ID3 is a metadata container most often used in conjunction with the MP3 audio file format. It allows information such as the title, artist, album, track number, and other information about the file to be stored in the file itself."
In layman's terms, the ID3 tag allows you to see important information about your MP3 file when viewing it on your desktop, from your MP3 player or via such popular media players as Windows Media Player, Winamp and (most importantly for today's topic), iTunes.
Often times, the information that this file displays may not be exactly what you would want your viewer to see or may not best describe the content contained within the audio. Thus, the need to add, edit, delete, change and manage this information is of the utmost importance to our readers, and is often times difficult to accomplish.
In today's posting, we aim to alleviate any apprehensions of accomplishing this (all too often daunting) task, while empowering our readers with the ability to catalog their media libraries the way they want them — not how outside influences might have dictated in the past.
Download MP3s to your Computer's Hard Drive
Since iTunes is available for both the Mac and PC platforms, and Apple has (thankfully) simplified the process, we feel that our readers will be able to implement the following steps in just a couple of clicks. However, the first and most important step is to download your MP3 file(s) from your AudioAcrobat account to your computer's hard drive.
Quick Steps:
1. Login to your AudioAcrobat account
2. Click Audio (L)
3. Click the title of the Audio you wish to download
4. Click "Download Audio"
Expanded Steps:
Login to your AudioAcrobat account
Click Audio (L)
Click the title of the Audio you wish to download
Click "Download Audio"
Now that you've saved your MP3 file(s) to your computer's hard drive (we chose to save to our desktop, but depending on how you like to organize your media, you can choose to save the file(s) to any folder you like), the next step is to import to iTunes.
Importing to iTunes: Drag + Drop = Easy
As the aforementioned headline states, using the drag + drop method is by far the easiest method of importing your MP3 file to iTunes. A helpful trick that we use is to resize the iTunes window on your screen so that you can visually see the file on your desktop/in its containing folder and your iTunes playlist at the same time. Click and drag the file from its location to your iTunes playlist and iTunes imports immediately!
Once you've dragged and dropped your file into the playlist of your choice (we created a new playlist in this case), you should see something like this:
Note the Name of the file as it currently appears: "Saved Phone Recording". Also note that the Artist field is blank. While the recording may have been recorded by phone, it does not describe exactly *what* was recorded by phone. Also, it does not state *who* made the recording ("Artist" field).
Wouldn't it be great if one could customize this information so that it not only displayed a more precise title and authorship … and not just in iTunes, but everywhere else the file may be used?
Do not fear. AudioAcrobat is here … to show you just how easy iTunes has made it for us to have detailed and well-organized media libraries!
Options. Aren't They Splendid?
Now that you've imported the file to iTunes and have determined that you wish to edit the information that is being displayed, the real fun begins. The fastest way to edit this info is just two clicks away.
Click on the text displayed in the "Name" field ("Saved Phone Recording"). It should look like this after you've made your first click.
Click again on the text displayed in the "Name" field ("Saved Phone Recording").
Now the text in the "Name" field should be editable. Make your edit and press Enter/Return to save your changes or press "Esc" to cancel. Repeat this process to edit the "Artist" field and you're done!
Hint: The most important thing to remember during this two click process is that this is not a "double-click". There must be a brief pause in between the two clicks, otherwise the file will simply begin to play in iTunes.
You should now see your customized "Name" and "Artist" information active within iTunes! The information displayed here will remain with the MP3 file you had imported to iTunes anywhere else that file is used (iPod, other MP3/Media Players etc.), unless updated again here in iTunes or by using a different method.
Coming up next … Audio Editing Software Recommendations!

Council staff member all set to face the music at Malvern Rocks Festival
A worker from Malvern Hills District Council will be showcasing his hidden musical talents this weekend at the annual Malvern Rocks Festival.
Malcolm Salisbury, who works in the Economic Development Team, used to be a professional bass player but will soon be dusting off his guitar to perform a one hour solo at the Great Malvern Hotel on Sunday (2 August) in order to help with vital fundraising efforts.
The festival, now in its fourth year, will be raising funds for chosen charities Acorns Children's Hospice and St Richard's Hospice through collections, donations and profits from the sale of merchandise. In the last three years the festival has raised more than £8,000.
Malcolm said: "I have been playing the guitar for over 20 years now and music is such a great passion of mine that I am always thrilled when given the opportunity to play, especially when it goes towards helping such worthy charities.
"Malvern Rocks has such a lively atmosphere, everyone is there to have a great time, relax and listen to the brilliant music on offer, and I'm really pleased to be a part of it. The line-up this year sounds fantastic."
Please visit http://www.malvernrocks.com/ for more information.

Latest news
Summer's story
"On 6th February, 2014 our lives were changed forever when our beautiful, kind, gentle 11 year old daughter Summer Isabella Cubitt was diagnosed with a rare blood related cancer called T Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. We moved into Piam Brown ward and have been looked after by Piam Brown ever since.
The doctors and nurses have been outstanding in every way. We cannot fault their professionalism, care and compassion. They walked the extra mile when they needed to. They made the journey better.
The same cannot be said of the physical space.
The upheaval both physically and psychologically of having to be moved from one bed to another bed at a moment's notice when your child is extremely sick was profound.
...Or having to share with a 16 year old boy when both children are attached to many machines and have to use commodes.
...Or sharing a bay with another child when there is no room for a nurse to access your machines and change the blood or platelet bags.
...Or being kept awake all night by a very sick child in the other bay who is screaming most of the night from extreme pain and intermittent vomiting.
All these additional problems made the extremely difficult journey that much more difficult for Summer.
Summer had her final Intrathecal Lumbar Puncture in Southampton just before the ward got closed down in April 2016. On Tuesday 5th July in spite of the ward being closed, Summer went to Southampton Hospital and had her portacath removed, marking the end of her treatment.
Whilst these works will not benefit Summer, it is not an exaggeration to say that the reconfiguration and urgent works will transform the experience for future children with cancer and their families. The exciting refurbishment will help to make their difficult journey significantly more manageable."
– Onnalee Cubitt, Summer's Mum.

Add to the liquid the flour, baking powder, coconut cream, pandan paste, vanilla extract then mix until well combined. Add the egg yolks one at a time continue mixing until smooth and all ingredients thoroughly combined.
In another large bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy then add pinch of salt and cream of tartar. Continue whisking until soft peaks form. Add the rest of the sugar slowly then continue mixing at high speed until stiff peaks occur.
Gently fold the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture in additions, being careful not to over deflate the batter. Pour the mixture into the chiffon pan only up to 3/4 of the pan volume and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour (depends on your oven), or until tester inserted to the center of the cake comes out clean. Once the cake is fully baked, take it out of the oven, hang it upside down until the cake cools. Release the cake with a knife then cut into slices and eat it. Enjoy!

Police admitted that Jaber Albakr managed to escape from police despite the fact that a large-scale operation was launched to detain him after "highly sensitive explosives" were discovered in his apartment, German media report.
Albakr was put on the German federal wanted list. Police also warns that he is "dangerous" and could have explosives with him.
An "insider" source told Focus that the operation aimed at arresting Albakr was a failure due to the inaction of the federal police and the Prosecutor's Office as well as due to the lack of cooperation between various police units.
According to the security source cited by Focus, the information about Albakr planning a bomb attack was given by the German internal security watchdog, the BfV, to the federal police and the Prosecutor's Office on Friday evening - but both law enforcement agencies refused to take action.
The case was eventually handed over to the regional police department of Saxony that had to hurriedly prepare the anti-terrorist operation on Saturday. The source, cited by Focus, said that the operation was a "total failure" in coordination between police operative groups and police Special Forces task force.
The source also added that, in case the federal police or the Prosecutor's Office took action on the matter, the operation would have been conducted by the GSG9 special anti-terrorist unit and could have been more successful.
Comment: This is certainly the message German spooks would like to get out: 'let us handle these cases - the police are incompetent'.
In the meantime, German media report that Albakr barely escaped detention as he left his apartment right before the start of the police operation. The suspect allegedly left the flat on Saturday morning just as police officers were preparing to storm it. The officers saw him and even fired a warning shot but he did not stop, Der Spiegel daily reports, citing a confidential operation summary of the regional police department. Albakr had a backpack with him as he fled the scene, prompting fears that he could be carrying weapons or explosives.
"We were there [at the scene] and were preparing for detention when the suspect left the house," a police spokesman told Der Spiegel. However, police then failed to track him down.
However, police detained three Syrians during the Saturday operation on suspicion of having links with the "bomb plot" suspect. Two of them were subsequently released and the third is still being held on suspicion of complicity in the plot, police said in a Twitter post, adding that the court is still reviewing his case.
On Sunday, police detained one more person in Chemnitz, who allegedly maintained contacts with Albakr.
Explosives found in Albakr's flat "exactly the same" as those used in Paris and Brussels attacks - expert
During the anti-terrorist operation in Chemnitz on Saturday, police reportedly found about 1 kilogram of explosives in the apartment that Albakr rented.
Elmar Thevessen, an expert on terrorism, told Germany's ZDF Channel that the explosive found in Albakr's flat was TATP or acetone peroxide, which is "exactly the same substance that was used in terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels."
A total of 130 people were killed and 368 injured in coordinated terror attacks in Paris and Saint-Denis, a northern Parisian suburb, in November 2015. In March 2016, twin suicide bombings hit Zaventem Airport and Maelbeek metro station in Brussels, killing 32 people and injuring dozens more.
The expert also stressed that this substance is "not easy to obtain," adding that it is much more dangerous than TNT (Trinitrotoluene). The attacks both in Paris and Brussels were claimed by Islamic State.
Jaber Albakr is a Syrian who came to Germany as a refugee "several months ago" and was granted asylum, a spokesperson for Saxony's police department said Sunday, as cited by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.
At the same time, Der Spiegel reports that Albakr was detained in February 2015 for illegally crossing the German border and he filed an asylum application. In June 2015, he was officially granted asylum.
It is still unclear, if he acted alone or had any connections to any terrorist organizations, although the DPA news agency reported that he allegedly had links to Islamic State (IS, former ISIS/ISIL).
Chemnitz is the third-largest city in Germany's eastern state of Saxony, which has already been hit by a number of attacks recently. Two improvised explosive devices went off in Dresden, Saxony's capital, less than two weeks ago, which targeted a mosque and an international conference center. No one was injured in those attacks, although the mosque was damaged, according to police.
Police have conducted several raids on Islamists suspected of planning terror attacks across Saxony in recent months.

Pier 32 Marina is an undiscovered gem that currently leases slips to boaters and, in the spirit of Frank Kimball, has large tankers unloading cargo most days. Remember that guy, Frank Kimball? He and his brothers created National City (the oldest city in San Diego County), which was a Beverly Hills for wealthy citrus farmers and visiting U.S. Presidents.
In a terrible twist, Kimball loaned all his money out and when nobody paid him back, he went bankrupt. His vision of a thriving upscale city vanished, but he still left many historic places behind, including a Wharf.
History buff, Irene Phillips describes the wharf this way:
In 1871 the Kimball brothers built a sturdy wharf reaching out to the deep channel. Said The San Diego Union, "Finished to the last bolt! It is wonderfully well constructed and is a substantial credit to the contractor, Fred Copeland." He was the husband of Mary Kimball, Frank's sister, and he served both the town and the county in various offices.
This wharf became very important when another railroad, the Texas & Pacific, received government aid to build through Texas to Ship's Channel, in San Diego Bay. On September 2, 1872, the representative of the railroad signed a contract with Kimball brothers to buy the wharf and received 11,000 acres of land which included one half of National City. Frank Kimball contracted to place piles and culverts for the first ten miles along the waterfront. He had just begun the work when the country was rocked by the financial crash on Black Friday, September 19, 1873, and the railroad boom ended abruptly.
Sure, it didn't work out so well back in the 1800's, but today National City is again up-and-coming. The best part of Pier 32 Marina with its fishermen, boaters, kayakers and picnickers is that nobody has quite discovered it yet. That means, for those who love Southern California, but would prefer to escape the crowds, welcome to his wharf. It's just for you.
Pepper Park
Pepper Park is adjacent to the Pier 32 Marina and here you'll find the wharf. Previously known as Maritime Park, the name was later changed to honor National City businessman and civic leader, Leonard Pepper. It was expanded to its present size and refurbished by the Port of San Diego in 1988. The Sweetwater Channel on the left side of the park functions as a flood control channel and a navigational channel for recreational and cargo vessels.
The wharf is part of the thirty-four waterfront miles of the San Diego Bay and today this wharf, specifically, maintains Kimball's vision: mammoth vessels come here to offload cargo, mainly brand new automobiles from Japan and lumber from the Pacific Northwest.
School Of Blue Bottle Noses
David Boyer created this sculpture in 2008 for the Port of San Diego Tidelands Collection.
The other sculptures at the Pier and at Pepper Park are equally charming:
Boater's Paradise
Pier 32 Marina rents slips to overnighters, monthly renters and live aboards. Yes, a handful of people live here on their boats. There are about 256 slips in the marina and another 57 side-ties, so Pier 32 can take boats 22-feet and under. The marina, owned by parent company GD Holdings, is considered one of the least expensive areas to rent slips on the Bay because there is no immediate ocean access.
The Pier itself looks upscale and part of the reason may be its newness. The SD Port Authority dug the hole and then Mar Vista Construction came in to build this Pier, which opened only 7 years ago, in June 2008. Although they don't rent out boats for day or overnight use, if you already have a boat and choose to rent a slip, you'll enjoy all sorts of amenities, including the boater's lounge, a Bayside room and a deck overlooking the water. You'll have access to an exercise room, deluxe showers, a swimming pool and a jacuzzi.
Captain's Quarters
Here's the best tip of all for those who want a staycation or those coming from afar. A one bedroom guest room is available for rent daily or weekly. Fully furnished, it includes a kitchen and lounge area as well as a bedroom. Within the next two years, there might be six more available. Although meant for when family and friends come to visit people who live on their boats, Pier 32 Marina welcomes the general public for a nightly or, better, weekly rental. The general public can rent the one-bedroom apartment for $179.60 per night and $239 on the weekends. If you're lucky enough to get a room here, you'll be able to hang out with the local boaters. Now how cool is that?
If you feel that you're at a loss of things to do in quieter National City, I'd check out my list.
Address: 3201 Marina Way, National City, CA 91950

In now: Tangelos are juicy, brilliantly coloured, sweetly flavoured citrus. Americans can't get enough of them but we are not so keen. Local fans should find them now and buy them often to convince growers not to convert to better-selling mandarins.
At its best: Cumquats are ready for eating or jamming. They can also be preserved in sugar for a sweet treat, or in salt, as for lemons. I found a good recipe here.
Best buy: Field-grown eggplant from Queensland is the bargain. Roast, barbecue, fry or curry. We recently ate this curry for dinner and loved it.
In the vegie patch: After harvesting cumquats, follow up with a prune to shape and revitalise the tree. You can leave off feeding until the end of July,then set the tree up for spring. I like Yates Dynamic Lifter Plus Fruit Food.
What else:
- kale is still a bargain if you can face any more of it
- the wild mushrooms are nearly finished
- make something with quince
- and rhubarb, but not together!

(Recasts with mine back in operation)
By Antonio De la Jara
SANTIAGO, Nov 28 (Reuters) - BHP´s Spence copper mine was operating normally again following a union strike announced earlier on Wednesday, the company said.
Union President Ronald Salcedo told Reuters early on Wednesday that about 50 workers had been laid off, in addition to eight supervisors, raising safety concerns for the mine's remaining workers and prompting the walk-off.
BHP later confirmed in a statement that it had fired 57 workers, including mine operators, supervisors and maintenance workers, but said the mine was again operating normally.
The Spence deposit near the Chilean coastal city of Antofagasta is BHP's second largest in Chile, after its sprawling Escondida copper mine, the world's largest.
BHP has said it will spend nearly $2.5 billion to extend the life of the Spence deposit by more than 50 years, creating up to 5,000 jobs and bringing new output online in 2021.
"These layoffs are strange given that costs are under control at the mine and even more so given that the company is pushing the upgrade project, which should mean contracting more workers," Salcedo said.
BHP said the layoffs were the result of a review of "its operational situation, processes and the resources necessary to conduct its operations safely and sustainably over time."
Spence produced 198,600 tonnes of copper in 2017.

Hey everyone,
I recently found an old RSMedia robot, sadly without a remote. It won't boot though: when I turn it on, he moves a bit but then does nothing. The screen just shows Wowwee, flashes black and then loops doing that. I soldered some wires to it so I could access it via a serial connection, and when I connect to it, it also loops the following:
Device ID:22BA
Press any key for alternate boot-up options ... 00
Copying kernel from Nand Flash to RAM ...
Booting kernel ...
Does anyone have any advice how (or if) I can fix this?
Thanks in advance!

Laura Schenone believes the time to talk about the plight of greyhounds is now.
"I think we are reaching a point in our civilization where the planet needs us to rethink how we care for animals," says the author of "The Dogs of Avalon: The Race to Save Animals in Peril." Schenone appears Oct. 22 at Books & Books in Coral Gables.
Schenone, who lives in New Jersey and describes herself as a reluctant activist and "not a natural born animal lover," was inspired to write the book when she adopted a dog named Lily for her sons. A friend involved with a group rescuing greyhounds in Ireland introduced her to Lily.
Lily, a lurcher abandoned and near death, had suffered from malnutrition and mange. But as is so often the case, meeting her was love at first sight for Schenone.
Through the adoption, Schenone learned the story of Marion Fitzgibbon, who has made a career of rescuing animals in Limerick, saving wildlife, street dogs and circus animals. She eventually became the director of the Irish Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals."The Dogs of Avalon" focuses on Fitzgibbon's tireless efforts to improve conditions for greyhounds and to put pressure on a government that supported an industry that killed thousands of dogs each year. The story is especially relevant in Florida, where earlier this year, 12 racing dogs tested positive for cocaine.
Schenone does not present a one-sided argument. She interviewed "dog men" who raise and race greyhounds.
"Many of them do love the dogs, and many do treat their dogs well," she says. "I wanted to get that across. But there's a culture war, the old way of doing things and the new. They've been in the business for years, and it connects them to their dads. But we are at a crossroads in this world. We know dogs think and feel. We know they love us. But 10,000 are born every year, and they can't all run. Many die. Many are injured."
"The Dogs of Avalon" chronicles Schenone's own animal rights awakening, too (she's now a vegetarian, though a struggling vegan — "I hate black coffee," she says, laughing). She writes about taking her son to Marineland near St. Augustine years ago and his refusal to go into the attraction because the dolphins were in "prison."
"As a child, he could see what I couldn't," Schenone says.
But Fitzgibbon's work to save animals is the heart of the book.
"I think in our time, when we are seeing so much hatred and vitriol, saying 'Here are people who decided to make a difference locally' is what we need," Schinone says.Making a difference locally is the mission of Miami rescue group Friends of Greyhounds, which will be at Schenone's event with dogs available for adoption.
Michelle Weaver, who founded the organization with her husband in 2001, says greyhounds make terrific pets.
"They're oriented to people," she says. " They already have a lot of training. A greyhound is a perfect large dog for South Florida. They don't smell, they don't have thick fur, and they desperately need someone to pay attention to them. It's easy to walk into the Humane Society and see puppies and take home a puppy. These dogs have given it all to racing and training, and when they're not making money they're kicked out the door. … and they're such loving dogs."
Schenone agrees. She's besotted with Lily, who's now 12.
"Greyhounds are so zen and chill and ask for so little," she says. "They make the most wonderful pets for busy people."
As for what she hopes readers learn from "The Dogs of Avalon," Schenone turns again to Fitzgibbon.
"She said, 'Every living being has the right to live or die with dignity.' I think this book comes at a moment in time to ask ourselves this question and decide whether or not we believe it's true."
Who: Laura Schenone and "The Dogs of Avalon." Friends of Greyhounds will be in attendance with dogs available for adoption.
When: 4 p.m. Oct. 22
Where: Books & Books, 265 Aragon Ave., Coral Gables
