Anthology of A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal is here!
Not only are we celebrating Anaïs Nin's 116th birthday, which occurs on February 21, 2019, but also the publication of A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal, Anthology 2003-2018.
Anaïs Nin was born in Neuilly-sur-Seine on February 21, 1903. A Café in Space was born 100 years later, 15 volumes of which were published annually. The legacy of the journal is captured in a one-of-a-kind anthology, some 400 pages of the best representative work collected over the 15 years of its existence.
The authors' list is quite impressive:
Anaïs Nin
Henry Miller (Nin's former lover)
Alfred Perlès (Miller's best friend)
Hugh Guiler (Nin's "east coast" husband)
Joaquín Nin (Nin's father)
Rupert Pole (Nin's "west coast" husband)
Joaquín Nin-Culmell (Nin's younger brother)
Eduardo Sánchez (Nin's cousin)
John Ferrone (Nin's editor)
Lanny Baldwin (Nin's 1940s love interest)
John W. Bagnole (Miller scholar)
Simon Dubois Boucheraud (Nin scholar)
Sarah B. Burghauser (Nin scholar)
Ruth Charnock (Nin scholar)
Béatrice Commengé (Nin's French translator)
James M. Decker (Miller scholar)
Lynette Felber (Nin/Miller scholar)
Janet Fitch (American novelist)
Lana Fox (erotic writer)
Benjamin Franklin V (Nin scholar)
Kennedy Gammage (poet and Durrell scholar)
David Green (Durrell scholar)
Anita Jarczok (Nin scholar)
Dawn Kaczmar (English scholar)
Jane Eblen Keller (Durrell/Nin scholar)
Harry Kiakis (friend of Miller)
Richard Pine (Durrell scholar)
Eduardo Pineda (historian)
Bruce Redwine (Durrell scholar)
Steven Reigns (Nin scholar)
Chrissi Sepe (novelist)
Colette Standish (visual artist)
Yuko Yaguchi (Nin scholar and Japanese translator)
This talented and diverse group of contributors best represents A Café in Space and offers insight into Nin, Miller, Durrell, and other contemporaries, including Rebecca West, Evelyn Hinz, Helba Huara and Luis Buñuel.
Never-before-published photographs of Anaïs Nin adorn the covers of the anthology, and several rare photos are included in the contents.
Articles include diary entries by Nin and her correspondence with many of her contemporaries and family members, revealing details of events previously unknown to the public, including a series of letters to and from her father during the incest period. There are offerings by some of the world's most highly regarded Nin, Miller and Durrell scholars on far-ranging but always relevant topics, including Nin's rise to fame, how she is regarded in the media, her history of readership in Japan, how she influenced some of today's writers, the story behind Nin biographies, thoughtful looks at today's studies on Nin, Miller and Durrell, and accounts of visits to some of the most iconic locations frequented by the "three musketeers" in France. Short fiction, art and poetry reflect Nin's influence on today's writers, and there are book reviews on studies of each of the "musketeers."
This anthology is a grand adieu from the only Nin-dedicated literary journal in print today and will give the reader much to savor, something to dip into whenever the spirit is moved, or perhaps to binge on to satisfy the hunger for material on one of the most important writers of the twentieth century, whose influence reaches well into the twenty-first.

Anaïs Nin Podcast 34: How A Café in Space was born
In 2003, 100 years after the birth of Anaïs Nin, the first volume of the only current literary journal dedicated to Nin was born too. It came on the heels of the demise of ANAIS: An International Journal after its editor, Gunther Stuhlmann, died in 2002, before he was able to produce a special centennial issue the following year.
Paul Herron, a frequent contributor to ANAIS, was devastated by the loss of his friend and mentor, not to mention the fact that a huge void in Nin studies had suddenly opened up. Only a few months later, Herron attended a Lawrence Durrell conference in Ottawa, Canada, where he was approached by another of his mentors, Roger Jackson, the Miller publisher who inspired him to produce Anaïs Nin: A Book of Mirrors (1996), and encouraged him to think about filling the gap in Nin scholarship himself. At first, the idea intimidated him because of his deep respect for Stuhlmann's work, something he felt was untouchable. But certain travels and events soon changed his mind, some of which is revealed here for the first time.
Recorded on the eve of the publication of the Café in Space anthology (2003-2018), this podcast is Paul Herron's story of how it all began.

Recent publications by or about Anaïs Nin: A handy guide
It's easy to get lost in Anaïs Nin's literary ocean without a guide, so we have created a list ofrecent publications by Nin or about her, in a relatively chronological reverse order, along with a few faves.
2018: A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal, Vol. 15. Contains original pieces by Anaïs Nin and Rupert Pole; essays by several renowned scholars and writers; rare photographs; interviews with Nin notables including one of the characters of Collages, Nobuko Albery.
2017: Anaïs Nin's Lost World: Paris in Words and Pictures, 1924-1939 by Britt Arenander. A guidebook to the Paris of Anaïs Nin and Henry Miller, with complete historical documentation and more than fifty photographs of the literary duo's favorite haunts, both then and now.
2017: Trapeze: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1947-1955. The long-awaited diary that chronicles the beginning of Nin's "double" life with husband Hugh Guiler in New York and lover Rupert Pole in California. A complete rendering of the rigors, both physical and psychological, of a bicoastal affair with two very different men.
2017: A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal, Vol. 14. Excerpts from Nin's unpublished correspondence and much more.
2016: Auletris: Erotica, a long-lost collection of Nin erotica consisting of two main stories: "Life in Provincetown" and "Marcel," much of which had never been published before.
Other favorites include:
Mirages: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1939-1947. The first new Nin diary in seventeen years, Mirages is the record of Nin's arrival in New York from Paris at the dawn of war and her mighty struggles as a woman and writer adapting to a harsher world. Features Henry Miller, Gonzalo More, Gore Vidal, and finally Rupert Pole.
The Quotable Anaïs Nin, a thematic collection of 365 of Nin's famous (and occasionally obscure) quotations, with citations. You will note the poem "Risk" does not appear here, since it has been mistakenly attributed to Nin for decades. For verified quotes with sources, this is the book you need.
The Portable Anaïs Nin, a sampling of all genres of Nin's writing, in chronological order with comments by renowned Nin scholar Benjamin Franklin V. Highly recommended for first-time Nin readers or anyone who wants a complete collection in one book.
Podcast 31: Evelyn Hinz, Anaïs Nin's "official" biographer with Steven Reigns
Mystery has surrounded the never-produced biography that Canadian scholar Evelyn Hinz was appointed by Anaïs Nin to do for decades. Why did it never appear? Why was a single page never shown? And where is it today? Did it ever exist? Los Angeles poet and educator—and Nin aficionado—Steven Reigns wanted to know, so some years after Hinz's death, he approached her widower, John Teunissen, who graciously granted Steven an interview in which he answered his questions and also dropped a bombshell in the process. There were plenty of politics, bad blood, intrigue and some radical decisions made by both Teunissen and The Anaïs Nin Trust that few know about.
Steven Reigns' interview appears in Volume 15 of A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal and is a must-read for anyone–scholars, readers and fans alike–with an interest in Anaïs Nin and her biographers.

Anaïs Nin Podcast 30: Gonzalo Moré and Helba Huara
To kick off the celebration of the 15th and final issue of A Café in Space, California artist and historian Eduardo Pineda discusses his two articles, "The Dreaming Tiger—On Gonzalo Moré" and "La Gitana—On Helba Huara," which reveal the secrets and long-lost memories of Nin's Peruvian lover Gonzalo Moré and his wife, the dancer Helba Huara.
As anyone who has read Nin's 1930s and 1940s diaries knows, Nin met Gonzalo Moré at a party and was swept off her feet by his astounding presence, his Latin passion, and his utter bohemianism. When Nin visited Moré at his Paris apartment, she was shocked to find that he and his wife Helba were living in utter squalor. Once Nin and Moré commenced their decade-long love affair, she felt compelled to help him and Helba escape their sickly existence by giving them money for a new apartment, for food and medicine—Helba, at this time, had just fallen into a mélange of illnesses that incapacitated her and ended her once-celebrated dance career. While Huara was grateful for Nin's financial support, she resented her presence in her husband's live, and almost immediately a hate-infested relationship developed between the three of them. For ten years, it was a war between carnal passion and almost insane jealousy and hatred, a war in which the dark side eventually ultimately destroyed the Nin-Moré relationship in 1946. But before it ended, Nin and Moré founded the Gemor Press in New York to not only print Nin's books, but also to provide Moré with a source of income. While the press produced several true works of art, Moré's lack of discipline and Helba's increasing demands on him for constant care rendered him unable to fulfill his duties as a printer.
Ironically, Moré came from a prominent Peruvian family and was due a significant inheritance. In order to save their relationship, Nin offered to send Moré back to Peru to get his inheritance, but his pride would not let him go—he was horrified by the idea of how his family would react to his sorry state of affairs and never went back.
Once the affair ended—and it ended bitterly—there were few entries in Nin's diaries about Moré and Huara, and we, the readers, like Nin, lose track of them. There was confusion about how Moré and Huara left the country, when, and what happened next. Even the death date attributed to Moré in the published diaries (1966) turns out to be off by seven years.
But now, the lack of information and the mysteries have been in great part solved by Pineda's dogged detective work, which has taken over twenty years. We find out how Moré and Huara met each other, how they had a daughter who Nin believed was Moré's niece, and the incredible success Huara had as a performer of Peruvian indigenous dances, even to the point where she and Moré (who accompanied Huara on piano) appeared in New York City during the 1920s. We also discover that Huara was about to be awarded a national U.S. tour just as she fell ill, and how her plans for a return to dance many years later were tragically ended with an accident.
Listen as Eduardo Pineda reveals these details of the lives of these two once-famed but now enigmatic artists.

Podcast 28: A brief history of journals dedicated to Anaïs Nin
Until after Anaïs Nin published her blockbuster Diary of Anaïs Nin in 1966, there had been very few critical studies of her work. One notable exception was Oliver Evans' article "Anaïs Nin and the Discovery of Inner Space" in the Fall 1962 issue of Prairie Schooner. His book-length analysis didn't appear until 1968, but soon thereafter, scholars such as Richard Centing, Benjamin Franklin V, Duane Schneider, Philip K. Jason, and Evelyn Hinz began to take Nin's work seriously and wrote about it.
Centing and Franklin were the co-founders and co-editors of the first periodical dedicated to Nin, which they called Under the Sign of Pisces: Anaïs Nin and her Circle, a quarterly that debuted at the beginning of 1970.
Nin was a tough critic of those who critiqued her work; Oliver Evans was a victim of her dissatisfaction, as was, eventually, Benjamin Franklin V. Franklin says that he was "fired" by Centing in 1973 at the bequest of Nin. The reasons are explained in Episode 28 of The Anaïs Nin Podcast.
Pisces had a long run, ending in 1981, after which the void was filled by Gunther Stuhlmann's ANAIS: An International Journal. The story behind how this journal came to be and lasted for 19 annual issues is related by Paul Herron, who knew Stuhlmann personally, and who was inspired to create the most recent Nin journal, A Café in Space.
Herron details how Café came to be, who has been in its pages, how by pure luck he was able to include Janet Fitch (White Oleander) in the first annual volume, and attempts to explain why volume 15 (2018) will be the last.

Final Annual Volume of A Café in Space Announced
Sky Blue Press has announced that the upcoming Volume 15 of A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal will be the final annual issue.
Café began in 2003 as part of the celebration of Anaïs Nin's centennial, and it was unsure that a second volume would ever be published. However, the response to Vol. 1 was so great, that Vol. 2 was released the following year; it has been an annual event every year since, with a collection of dozens of excerpts from Nin's unpublished diaries and contributions from more than 100 writers, scholars, poets and artists from around the world.
In preparation for this final volume, Sky Blue Press is seeking submissions now.
Academic/non-academic articles concerning Nin and her circle (Henry Miller, Lawrence Durrell, Antonin Artaud, Marcel Proust, Jean Genet, Henri Michaux, Djuna Barnes, James Leo Herlihy, et al.) are especially valuable; we also consider short fiction, poetry, art, photography, travel memoir if they are somehow Nin-related or inspired.
Sky Blue Press asks that responses and proposals be sent to skybluepress @ skybluepress.com. They will require copy by the end of the year so that the Feb. 21, 2018 deadline can be met.
An anthology of the best of Vols. 1-15 will be released in 2019.

New Anaïs Nin Podcast and A Café in Space
We are celebrating Anaïs Nin's 114th birthday with two major events: First, the publication of the 14th volume of A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal, and the 24th episode of The Anaïs Nin Podcast.
The theme of this year's A Café in Space is twofold: erotica and Nin's relationship with her parents. Scholars from India and England look at Nin's childhood and how it affected her life: Kastoori Barua's essay uses popular theory to explain how Nin's life choices were influenced by the unusual relationship she had with both parents, while Jean Owen explores adult-onset incest, using Nin and Kathryn Harrison as examples. Casandra Lim uses Freud's theory of Oedipus to explains Nin's relationships. The erotica aspect comes from the recent release of Nin's long-lost collection Auletris: Erotica, and we present the introduction to the book as well as a lengthy excerpt. Erotica writer Lana Fox then uses Auletris as inspiration for her short story "L'Étalion."
Also included is never-before-published correspondence between Anaïs Nin, Joaquin Nin-Culmell and Eduardo Sanchez regarding contentious character descriptions of family members in the first volume of The Diary of Anaïs Nin, some of which is explosive.
Nin scholars Simon Dubois Boucheraud and Jessica Gilbey also provide article to volume 14, while David Green treats us to his experiences in Durrell country in France. There is an excerpt from and a review of Kazim Ali's new book Anaïs Nin: An Unprofessional Study and a tribute to John Ferrone from Tristine Rainer.
Short fiction, poetry and art are from Danica Davidson, Katie Doherty, Kennedy Gammage, Harry Kiakis, Steven Reigns, Chrissie Sepe, Colette Standish, David Wilde and Changming Yuan.
At $15, and with this caliber of work, it's a steal.
Podcast 24 concentrates on the history and future of Anaïs Nin's diary publication. As you may know, we are fast approaching the May 2017 release of the sixth unexpurgated diary, Trapeze, which covers the beginning of Nin's double life with husband Hugh Guiler and lover Rupert Pole on opposite ends of the country. We talk about the misconceptions behind the original series (the controversy surrounding the "missing husband"), the development of the early diary series, and a look at the rocky unexpurgated series, one which has reached incredible heights with Henry and June, and horrible lows after Incest was published in 1992, setting up the collapse of Nin's popularity. I talk about the editing of both Mirages and Trapeze, and the two future diaries, about which few know at this point.
Coming in at 20 minutes, I guarantee it's worth the listen.

Call for Papers
A Café in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal is seeking contributions for its 2017 issue.
Articles (both academic and non-academic) on Nin, Henry Miller, Lawrence Durrell, or anyone within Nin's literary circle, are welcome. We also accept photo essays, poetry, short fiction, travelogues and book or event reviews.
Articles are generally around 2,500 words, but we are extremely flexible, depending on the theme.
All styles (Chicago, MLA, etc.) are welcome and will be modified to our house style.
Poetry and short fiction do not have to necessarily be about Nin per se, but should have a certain quality that evokes her spirit.
We do accept short erotica, but we ask that the style be somewhat in line with Nin's.
You can contact us a firstname.lastname@example.com with proposals or queries.
Anaïs Nin Podcast 15: Nin's Editor John Ferrone
When one thinks of Anaïs Nin's Henry and June, Delta of Venus and Little Birds, one thinks of her "blockbusters," her most popular and bestselling works, titles that put her on the map. Two of the three books were made into Hollywood films, and Henry and June became notorious because of its first-ever NC-17 rating. The two volumes of erotica, Delta of Venus and Little Birds, propelled Nin's reputation as a groundbreaking feminine erotica writer. While Nin wrote all of the material in these volumes, the man who made them bona fide successes was John Ferrone, Nin's editor.
Nin met Ferrone in 1969, and by 1973 he was her fulltime editor at Harcourt Brace Jovanovich. Nin was so impressed with his editing that as she gave him 850 pages of raw erotica, written some thirty years prior for a dollar a page, she gave him the following instructions: "Do anything you like with it. I trust you." Ferrone wrote "The Making of Delta of Venus" for Volume 7 of A Café in Space in which he describes the great lengths he had to go to in order to sort out the entangled and complicated stories, to craft them into top-notch literary collections.
When Ferrone was editing Henry and June in 1985, he clashed with Nin's "West Coast Husband" and Trustee of The Anaïs Nin Trust over how the book would appear—Rupert Pole wanted none of Nin's writing changed, whereas Ferrone recognized the need for significant alterations in order to produce a commercially successful book. Their letters were so incendiary that after the book was done, Ferrone never edited another Nin book. For more on this, read Ferrone's "The Making of Henry and June the Book" in Volume 4 of A Café in Space. The exchanges are legendary.
I was saddened to learn that John Ferrone died on April 10, 2016 in Old Bridge, New Jersey, due to complications from Parkinson's Disease. There will be a memorial service at the Most Holy Redeemer Church, 133 Amboy Rd., Matawan, NJ on May 24 at 11:30. For more information, visit mostholyredeemerchurch.org.
Podcast 15 is devoted to John Ferrone and tells the story of how he was instrumental in helping me with the most important project I'd ever undertaken at that point—the editing of 1,600 pages of handwritten diary pages into Mirages: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1939-1947, the first such diary in nearly twenty years.

Happy Friday everyone!

I photographed Amy and her Corgi puppy Peggy (how cute is that alliteration?!?) back in January.
We completely lucked out with the weather and had a gorgeous sunny day, so we took little Pegs (how cute is that nickname?!?) out for a walk to Gasworks Park and found this awesomely bright tile:
I love this shot with her tongue sticking out!
We walked a little farther and found a bunch of leaves that Peggy insisted on jumping into. If I had worn my boots, I would have joined her.
I love this shot of the girls:
On our walk back to Amy's place, little Peggy showed her puppiness: she couldn't figure out how to go up the huge stairs! She went up one, then just stood there looking at us.
Amy ordered a picture book from the session and when I delivered it to her in February I was so surprised at how much Peggy had grown; a month does wonders for puppies! Can't wait to see how big she is at our next photo session!
🙂 Amanda
I recently made a trip to New Mexico (you can read about it here and here on my Art of Subtlety blog) and while I was there I met this cutie named Baxter:
Baxter has quite the life. His family lives on a beautiful property in a town called Placitas, where he spends his time hiking with his owners, watching wild horses roam free, playing with out of town visitors, and eating treats in his yard.
He has the most captivating eyes that make you melt and fall immediately in love.
My favorite thing about Baxter though was his tongue. Look at these cool spots!
A HUGE thanks goes out to Baxter and the Stueber family for inviting me into their home and showing me such kindness and generosity during my travels.

I can't believe this is the 3rd post in a row that features cats! Generally I get a mix of cats & dogs, but it must be kitten season in Seattle. 🙂
I went up to Everett yesterday to photograph this little sweetie:
She doesn't have an official name yet, so for now her owners are calling her Baby Girl.
Not to be overshadowed, Baby Girl's other house mates, Thriller & Kita, wanted to share the spot light.
One of my favorites of the day is this one of Thriller giving Baby Girl a little kiss:

While I was vacationing in Vancouver, BC for the Olympics, I had the chance to photograph two very adorable cats.
Sassy was so friendly and talkative while I was photographing her and she fell asleep in my lap on more than one occasion.
Abby was much more shy & reserved, but once she warmed up to me she didn't want to leave my side.
Thanks again to Sassy & Abby for giving me plenty of kitty love & making me feel right at home in Vancouver.

Hello blog readers! I know it's been awhile since we last spoke, but that's because so much has been going on and time has just slipped through our fingers. Let's catch up…
Charity is back in Seattle after 3 months of travel and photography through Europe. It's fabulous to have her only 15 minutes away instead of a trans-Atlantic flight away. I definitely missed having her nearby, especially during the holidays when things got chaotic and stressful and all I could think about was how nice it would be to laugh and hang out with her and eat at a yummy Indian lunch buffet where we'd both go for seconds without thinking twice. 🙂
Charity's return spurred us to dedicate some quality time to PaddyWag and we've been working diligently for the past 2 months solidifying our mission statement, perfecting our workflow, creating new products and revamping our portfolio. We're proud of what we've done and cannot wait to show it off to current and future PaddyWag clients, so check us out at our new website PaddyWag.com!
Since blog posts are WAY more fun when there are pictures, here are a few of our long time client Maddison during her latest photo session.
Happy almost-St Patrick's Day!
🙂 Amanda
You know how much I love Story People and the silly little Story of the Day emails that I get. Today had another dog related one titled "Tofu Pup."
"taunting the neighbor's dog with meat-flavored tofu because he can't get anyone else to eat it."

The original SB-40 came out for 1981 and this SB-40EQ came out only in 1982. They are often referred to as the Holy Grail of Washburns and both are quite rare. As I luckily own 2 SB-40's and the SB-40EQ you see here, I was able to take them both to an electrical engineer to get some insight on them.
The only 2 differences are:
1) 1982 SB-40EQ has blackened aluminum cavity covers while the preceding 1981 SB-40 has natural color (silver-gray), brushed aluminum cavity covers.
2) 1982 SB-40EQ bridge pickup uses only 2 wires which I understand to be the normal thing. Evidently, the 1982 SB-40EQ DiMarzio bridge pickup was slightly different from the 1981 SB-40 bridge pickup, but not to to any degree necessarily changing the tonal output. While the 1981 SB-40 bridge pickup has 3 wires (so evidently the shielded ground wire is included with the pickup and not separate and attached to one of the EQ pots).
a) This new electrical/tonal package of the SB's was so good that it was used on all Force 40's and the B-40EQ/EQW basses for the next 4 years (1981-1985). (Prior to the SB's, the electrical package was different. I'll not go into detail about those here.)
b) It can be used for any genre and really takes well to effects, keeping the bass notes clean WITHIN the effect signal instead of absorbing, so to speak, the effect which of course makes you lose clarity and brings mud.
c) The necks on SB's, again, used on all basses following until 1985, are tremendously easy to play on, in fact, to me, they are the best necks I have played on. And of course, rock solid balance in any position you put the bass.
d) the finishes are a SUPER DURABLE polyurethane, including back of neck, yet so dang smooth it does not interfere or "grab" your hand. Just wonderful finish. Mine have years of playing and show no wear at all!
e) The two back parametric EQ pots do sweep across a spectrum and you are more or less choosing freqs to "focus on", not just scooping and cutting out large swaths of frequency. They also are not each pickup-specific so much as they will affect the entire signal leaving the bass made up from both pickups or any one of the separate pickups.
f) Yes indeed the mini-switch adds a "mini-focus" and boost at a specific and narrow freq range to add "brilliance" at around the 850Hz-1000 range. I used to think it went lower but do not think that now. Some mistakenly think it is a mini-phaser---it is not.
The good thing about vintage Washburns is that they seem to be un-recognized for the great basses that they are. This means you can get them (if you can find one) at comparatively low prices!

On September 8, the World Bank issued a report on the social and economic consequences of air pollution: "The Cost of Air Pollution – Strengthening the Economic Case for Action".
The percentage of the world population that lives in areas that exceed the Air Quality Guideline of the World Health Organization (WHO) rose to 87% between 1990 and 2013. Air pollution is recognized as a major global health risk. In 2013, 5.5 million people died prematurely as a result of exposure to air pollution (especially due to heart, lung, and respiratory diseases). This corresponds to 1 in every 10 total deaths, rendering air pollution the fourth leading cause of premature deaths worldwide behind smoking, diet, and metabolic diseases.
The cost of increased health care, premature deaths, and lost labor income are calculated from the perspective of welfare (what are people willing to pay for quality of life) and income (what is the economic effect of lost productivity, natural and human capital). In 2013, the worldwide cost of exposure to air pollution amounted to USD 5.11 trillion (€4,560,000,000,000). Welfare losses are highest in developing economies, especially the densely populated areas in South East Asia and the Pacific (up to 7.5% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP)).
The report calculates the economic impact of air pollution to motivate governments to take action against air pollution. To this end, the report illustrates the cost-effectiveness of investing in air quality. Rules issued by the US government towards improving air quality were consistently the most economically beneficial of all federal regulations. Between 2004 and 2014, an estimated USD 37-44 billion was spent to limit air pollution. A total of USD 157-777 billion in savings due to reduced health risks as a consequence of exposure to fine dust was generated; benefits outweighed the costs by a ratio of more than 4 to 1!

Hier ist die aktuelle
3MA-Firmware für die "2TB Model 0F10311" Hitachis zu finden.
Update von
28A erst auf
3EA, dann
3MA - Mehr Info im verlinkten Thread.
Hitachi 2TB 7K2000 (HDS722020ALA330), Model 0F10311
Current firmware: 3MA
Previous firmare: 3EA, 28A, 20N (newest to oldest)
This firmware applies to Hitachi HDS722020ALA330 2TB 7K2000 harddisks, model 0F10311. For other makes and models of drives you'll need to contact Hitachi support. The following information is being provided since its very difficult to get these files from Hitachi support, as they understandably don't want to create unnecessary RMA's by the software being misused (applied to a wrong drive or with improper procedure).
The Hitachi firmware update utility JKDL_SP.EXE must be run in DOS mode, so place it on something like a Win98 bootdisk. Connect your disks to your motherboard SATA port(s), and make sure your SATA mode is set to "IDE/LEGACY" rather than AHCI. Repeat an AHCI mode SATA port will not work correctly in DOS mode. You will NOT lose any data on the harddisk, the update does not touch the disk surfaces - I've flashed over 60 of these drives without issue. Lastly, the type of firmware file is "BDX" which you can answer when prompted. Follow the prompts and reboot.
A drive with firmware version 20N or 28A must FIRST be upgraded to 3EA before it can be upgraded to 3MA. To verify your firmware version, run the JKDL_SP.EXE tool without any parameters. If flashing 28A and 20N drives to 3EA, you do not need to reboot to then apply the 3MA update. You can do them one after the next in the same session.

SERP affect your website?
SERP affect your website?
There are a few search engines on the internet. Some website appears more often and ranks higher than others. Do you know why? No one will likely search for a company but a service or a product?Portrait of two business people pulling SEO banner
For example, I want to buy a tap, I will use the popular search engine online like Google to search for 'tap'. Tap is the keyword. At the same time, I might need a spanner too, I will search for 'hardware store'. 'Hardware store' is another keyword.
So, it is a must your page is able to tell your online visitors, I'm an online hardware store sells tap. Your website might appear in the search. But the question is in which page, Top 10? 20 or 30? Or I cannot find my website?
Here are tips to help some choose to DIY to save money. Again, I remind you time is only not your concern and patience is needed. My recommendation and tips suggest that your website might be ranked higher but the result is not guaranteed.
- If you can buy and use an older and expired domain. The longer, it has registered the better. The age of the Domain plays a role in ranking.
- Readable content and relevant content for the keywords you want to get listed.
- Images – try not to have an underscore or special characters in the name and alt is used in all images.
- Load speed of the website. Some websites have the tool to test your website first-byte load test. It helps.
- Geographical location. If your target customers are Singaporean, you don't choose to host in the USA. However, this can be reinforced using the webmaster console not very crucial.
- Avoid errors like an unfound page, images or similar affect your ranking in search engines.
- Use correct unique title and meta description of each page.
- Use sitemap or sitemap generator.
- Use https.
- Links building. Try to link back to your website from others. And the other website is popular, this will help to rank higher.
- Use SEM. Advertise online to get click traffic.
Apart from method 11, most you do not need to speed money. Some may have, like getting a link from a press release or some may have even buy a link. Whatever the case, these are general things that you can do to get a higher ranking.
There are things like redirection, passive voice, transition words, the HTML H1 H2… tag, the frequency of the keyword is appearing are very detailed things to follow. A search engine like Google changes its search algorithm often. I supposed if you have done the above it definitely has a better ranking to a website not Search Engine Optimised.

When Lleyton Hewitt walked out on the tennis court at Wimbledon for the last time, in late June, it was interesting to note that his "Player Details" showed that he was not in fact a resident of Australia. This was not surprising even though we consider Lleyton Hewitt to be an iconic Australian sportsman who has, like Pat Rafter, lifted the profile of Australian Tennis during the last 10-15 years. Lleyton Hewitt was in fact listed as a resident of Nassau, in The Bahamas. There is no personal income tax in The Bahamas, although residents do pay a form of tax which can be less than 3%. Is this hypocrisy? Will the Australian Taxation Office and Joe Hockey both who have publically criticised Google and Apple, in recent Senate enquiries for avoiding their Australian tax obligations, also be pursuing Lleyton Hewitt?
You are entitled to structure your affairs to minimise income tax. This is not tax avoidance and the term "tax avoidance" has been used incorrectly by the Green Senators and other Senators who have chaired the Senate Committee looking into the offshore activities of Google and Apple. These companies are operating within the law, like Lleyton Hewitt by structuring their affairs to minimise tax. In fact, companies like Apple and Google are creating employment and contributing to the Australian Economy, whilst Lleyton Hewitt has made no direct contribution to employment, or consumption in Australia.
I find it disgraceful that the Australian Taxation Office and certain politicians feel that it is necessary to attack large companies who are creating thousands of jobs within Australia, and have labelled them as "tax avoiders" whereas we pay homage to our sportsmen and women who seem to do no wrong in our eyes. Let's get real and have a level playing field so to speak. If you are going to attack and criticise companies for arranging affairs in order to minimise Australian tax, then the same criticism should be also applied to those sportspeople who we seem to worship and yet ignore the fact that they are doing the exact same thing.

The news today and probably for the next few days will be filled with reports of the terrorist shootings in the Mosques of Christchurch, New Zealand and their aftermath. As with any other such event there is no doubt that many of the first reports will turn out to be flat out wrong and thus anything I write now may end up having to be changed.
First off, this is a terrorist tragedy and I utterly condemn the perpetrators and what I understand of their motivations. It isn't a "senseless" crime, the perps had reasons and those reasons were (are) evil in exactly the same way that Da'esh and other Islamic terror groups have evil motivations (along with, of course, every totalitarian regime in the 20th century from the USSR to the Third Reich to the Khmers Rouges and North Korea). Having said that, it is possible (see second half of the post) that, just like the Islamofascist terror attacks, they may turn out to be partially successful. That's not a good thing for anyone.
Surviving an attack
However before I get into the longer term political bits, let's talk about the close and personal and what to do if you are in such a situation. I think we've now seen enough of these mass shooting the unarmed to draw some lessons for what to do and what not to do. In this case, in particular, the shooter live-streamed the entire thing which means it is possible to do a lot more than speculate based on unreliable evidence of external video cameras and traumatized survivors.
The first lesson is clearly don't be there and if you have to be there be armed if possible. Note that it seems the second mosque attack appears to have come to a halt when one of the people there started shooting back.
A second shooting happened at a mosque in the Linwood area of the city.
One Friday prayer goer returned fire with a rifle or shotgun.
Witnesses said they heard multiple gunshots around 1.45pm.
A well known Muslim local chased the shooters and fired two shots at them as they sped off.
If that isn't possible – and, outside the US, armed is hard – then plan your escape route(s) every time you are at a public event or location (e.g. a shopping mall). If shooting starts do your best to run away as quickly as you can without stopping until you are a good 100 yards/metres away and behind cover (buildings, large trees, thick walls) rather than concealment (hedges, fences, cars). There are some reports that in this case a few victims ran away but stopped too soon and were shot at.
However assuming you are there and you can't escape then we know that you cannot assume that anyone else is going to stop the terrorist in a timely fashion. Even though doctrine for an active shooter situation is go in ASAP, it will likely take time for armed LEOs to show up and there's a good chance (see Parkland, Fl) that they'll chicken out initially. So for the first 5 minutes at least, and could well be a lot longer – in Christchurch it took THIRTY SIX minutes from the time of the first emergency call until the perp was arrested, it's up to you and the rest of the people in the place. That's enough time that an attacker could shoot several hundred rounds if he's trained, prepared and undisturbed. On the other hand, since practicing this kind of thing is hard for most terrorist sorts, the chances are extremely high that the shooter is going to be poorly trained /prepared and unwilling to take too many risks.
With regard to the risks. If you can close (and block) doors between you and the shooter that's better than leaving them open because the shooter may not bother to risk going through. In particular if you can barricade doors that's a good thing but you need to also think about what will happen if the barricade fails. Also recall that doors themselves are not even close to bulletproof (though the walls next to them may be). Use the time to figure out how to exit the location if possible and, if not, how to ambush the shooter when he comes in.
If you are in the same (openish) area as the shooter then hiding and/or pretending to be dead mostly doesn't work, he'll shoot you anyway and then if he has the time – which he likely will – he'll make sure by shooting every body one more time. Attacking the shooter may not work either but you are no less likely to die than you are by cowering. More importantly if you and enough others attack at about the same time at least one of you will get through.
However – and I realize this is not going to be as easy to do in the moment as it is to write about in safety – there are definitely smarter ways to attack. Firstly throwing things at the shooter will help to distract him and the more people that do that the better. Hard compact objects are best (stones, cell phones, coins) but books, cushions and even coats or jackets will work if there's nothing else. However you need to follow up the throw with an in person attack, ideally while he's distracted with the object you threw.
Secondly you'll do better if he's not looking at you and do even better if he has to reload, but waiting too long for that moment is likely to be fatal. Thirdly if he's facing away from you and if you are within about, say, 20 foot (6m) of the shooter you can almost certainly get to him before he can turn around, OTOH if he's facing you and you jump from 10-15 ft you'll probably hit him even if he shoots you while in mid air. Then finally if you get to him, you'll probably do better hurting him than fighting for the weapon and by hurting I mean things like kicking him (or punching) in the balls, stomach, kidneys or gouging his eyes out as opposed to grappling with him. However you'll likely save a lot of people if you can get him on the ground so think of a way to do that. If you've got him disabled I personally would recommend turning his own weapon on him and shooting him. Not only does that ensure he isn't a threat, it also saves the nation a lot of money in terms of the courts and prisons.
The absolute key though is to have thought enough about it in advance that you are prepared (mentally and practically with something that can be a weapon) and committed.
Strategic Terror
OK so enough about surviving/fighting back, how about the question of whether the attack will achieve the intended goals of the attacker. Of course there is the question of whether the attacker had plausible goals, but let's assume that he did and that his statements about "invaders" are indicative of his main goal – a reduction in the numbers of Muslims/Arabs/Asians in NZ and/or Australia.
It is possible that while he may not succeed in the reduction of numbers already present, his attack might end up reducing the flow of migrants and thus be partially successful. This will only work out if he ends up inspiring others. A single attack, even one as horrific as this one, is unlikely to do much. But if there are a series of attacks inspired by it then that might well result in a reduction of would-be migrants as these attacks will undoubtedly be in the news in the countries whence the migrants originate and some would-be migrants are likely to consider alternate destinations because they don't like the idea of being shot.
Beyond that, his other goal appears to be to forment (more) polarization and discord in the US and the rest of the "West". I suspect this goal is also going to succeed because (see twitter is evil) the Internet and social media specifically is going to ensure that dozens of competing but incompatible narratives are spread far and wide. The goal of this discord seems to be to reverse perceived the degeneracy of current society/culture and that probably isn't going to be as successful. For sure his stated end-desires of a eco-friendly world governed by something like the Chinese communist party seem to be unlikely to come to pass – if nothing else because of their internal inconsistencies. However some of the subgoals – such as spreading distrust of the media, incumbent democratic governments and large enterprises in general seem entirely possible because that distrust is already there to a significant extent.
Problems and Solutions
It is worth reading Rod Dreher's thoughts on the manifesto. I tend to agree with quite of lot of his commentary – in particular that the scumbag seems to have correctly identified a number of valid issues with the "West" and our civilization/culture/society. Then again many left-wing nutbag socialist "progressives" are also able to identify valid issues with our civilization – the overlap between the ones identified by the scumbag and those of the progressive left is not 100% but is fairly high. I have no doubt that this will discomfort some progressives. There's some overlap between what I think is wrong and that of the scumbag as well, but I'm not going to let that bother me, just as I don't care that the progressives can correctly identify issues.
The real problem is not in the identification of the problem so much as the proposed solutions and those are flat out nuts, as might be expected from someone who apparently loves the PRC and yet claims to be an "Eco-fascist". Plus, as noted at the Atlantic, it is extremely unclear to what extent his manifesto and related comments are in fact his genuine views as opposed to deliberate attempts to troll and/or mislead.
One critical question is whether he will inspire more terror, and what the best way to stop that is. Note I don't consider it to be material whether the terror is by people opposing his views of supporting them. At a practical level the simplest way to stop shooters is with other shooters and so by far the best way to stop this sort of attack from being repeated is for some worshipers (of all creeds) to be armed when attending a religious service. Not only does (see above) shooting the shooter in the first few seconds cut down on the number of victims, the threat of being shot will strongly dissuade copy-cats because a livestream of a terrorist being taken out in 10 seconds and then dying painfully sends a very different message to a livestream where the terrorist can act with impunity for minutes.
Outside the US, I suspect this ideal response of numerous armed members of the congregation is not going to happen. Undoubtedly the more common response to this attack will be for armed police to be stationed at religious locations during services. That's going to work to a point, but it will require the armed guard to be 1) aware and 2) competent. I'm afraid the experience of Charlie Hebdo shows that this only works to stop a lone casual attacker because the obvious counter to this is to take out the armed guard first and that guard is going to be obvious. By contrast the armed congregation approach is a lot harder to counter because the attackers have no idea who is armed.
The better, longer term solution, of course is to create an environment where people don't want to become terrorists. That's an area where I'm about 99% sure the current political leadership is going to utterly fail. In fact I strongly expect that they will enact measures that end up inspiring more terrorism because their actions will show a problematic double standard where "right-wing" "white supremacist" terror is treated in a totally different way to islamic or "antifa" terror. That will inspire the islamicists and "antifa" crowd because they will think they can get away with it and it will foster grievances amongst those drawn to the "white supremacist" side of the house.
Bottom line: we can expect more events like this so pay attention to the first section and don't be a passive victim.

Berman's Mid City Nissan and Mid City Subaru Expanding in Chicago
For those of you who haven't yet heard, Mid City Nissan is moving into a huge facility in the Avondale neighborhood of Chicago later this year. The grand opening is scheduled for September, but rumor has it that it may open earlier, perhaps in August. This is no doubt great news, especially for current and future customers of Mid City Nissan who'll now have a stunning 6.1-acre refurbished space in which to shop for new and used vehicles or get their vehicles serviced.
It's also welcome news for Mid City Subaru customers, since that store will take over Mid City Nissan's space, allowing for a much larger show room and service facility. The new Subaru facility will occupy at least two whole city blocks on West Irving Park Road, which means shorter wait times for service (just like at the new Mid City Nissan store) and a greater selection of Subaru vehicles on the premises.
Crain's has all the details….

For the first time since being founded, 59 schools received property titles to own the land where they have been functioning. This will allow these schools to be intervened as part of the Human Capital Development component of the second MCC agreement with El Salvador.
The handing over of the titles was made possible by the donations of land made by mayors, organizations and individuals.
"To promote education in the Salvadoran population is a priority and a key driver to reduce poverty through economic growth", said Regional Deputy Vice President for Europe, Asia, Pacific, and Latin America in the Millenium Challenge Corporation´s Department of Compact Operations, Fatema Sumar, who traveled from the United States to be part of the ceremony, along with Ambassador Jean Manes, Salvadoran President Salvador Sánchez Cerén, Salvadoran Minister of Education Carlos Canjura and the FOMILENIO II Executive Director William Pleitez.

68 den Polyester 210T PU
(100% Polyester)
The outer tent material has four layers of PU coating on the inside (water column 8 000 mm). Because the fabric does not absorb water, it will not stretch when damp or wet.
70 den Nylon Ripstop 190T WR
(100% Polyamide)
The water-repellent (W/R) fabric in 70 den Nylon is particularly air-permeable. The stronger threads running horizontally and vertically (Ripstop) increase the fabric's tear resistance, which makes it ideal for inner tents.
70 den Nylon Taffeta 190T PU
(100% Polyamide)
This is a tightly and finely woven material for very light tent floor. Quadruple PU-coated, with a 10 000 mm water column rating.
Product description
Lightweight, uncomplicated tunnel tent for three diagonal sleepers
Grönland is the tent for anyone who prefers to keep their sleeping area separate from their living area even when outdoors, and yet remain compact. The extended front arch turns the vestibule into a useful awning. The rear frame arch is shortened – after all, it's only where your feet go, and the low weight and packing volume have to be achieved somehow.
- Tunnel tent with three poles
- Shortened back tent pole
- Vestibule with side entrance
- Two air vents in the outer tent
- Waterproof sealed seams
- Covers, vents, and attachment points made waterproof
- Reflectors on the guy lines

Renault-Nissan's 'Le Cost Killer' didn't come cheap
Paris - In his 40 years in the motor industry, the praise Carlos Ghosn has won for turning around businesses has regularly been matched by criticism over the amount he has been paid to do it.
In the latest furore over his finances, Nissan said on Monday that it planned to oust Ghosn as chairman after alleging he had made personal use of company assets, among other acts of suspected misconduct.
The scandal comes just five months after the 64-year-old head of the Renault-Nissan alliance narrowly won a shareholder vote at Renault over his 7.4 million euro (R119m) pay package for 2017, after losing a 2016 vote.
Brazilian-born, of Lebanese descent and a French citizen, Ghosn began his career in 1978 at tyremaker Michelin, before moving to Renault in 1996, where he oversaw a turnaround at the French carmaker that won him the nickname "Le Cost Killer."
Working alongside then CEO Louis Schweitzer, he helped return the company to profitability by making the former state-owned carmaker leaner and more efficient.
After Renault sealed an alliance with Nissan in 1999, Ghosn used similar methods to revive the ailing Japanese brand, leading to "business superstar" status in Japan, blanket media coverage and even a manga comic book on his life.
"A boss has to have 100 percent freedom to act and 100 percent responsibility for what he does. I have never tolerated any wavering from that principle, I will never accept any interference," he once said.
As car markets in western Europe and Japan struggled, Ghosn championed a cheap car for the masses in emerging markets and embraced the electric vehicle before many others.
He also never made it a secret that he believed there were too many carmakers in the world and consolidation would continue - in 2016 he added Mitsubishi to the alliance.
Born to be a car guy
Crossing borders and adapting to different cultures have never been a problem for 64-year-old Ghosn.
Born in Brazil on March 9, 1954, to Lebanese parents, he was reportedly able to distinguish types of cars at the age of five just by the sound of their horns.
At the age of six, he went to live in the Lebanese capital Beirut with his mother and attended a Jesuit high school there.
Later he moved to Paris where he picked up degrees at two of France's most elite schools, including the Polytechnique engineering university.
His Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, French and English are fluent, and he has picked up a working knowledge of Japanese during his time at Nissan.
Yet he also fiercely guarded his personal time and maintains his ties with Lebanon, where he has invested in a winery.
"I do not bring my work home. I play with my four children and spend time with my family on weekends," he once told Fortune magazine.
"When I go to work on Monday... I come up with good ideas as a result of becoming stronger after being recharged."

100 Toys Talks to... Gem Baukham
In this new series, we talk to our readers and contributors about the joys and surprises of life with young children.
Tell us a little about your family…
We are a complete and proud family of 3 - Mum (Gem, running a little creative business from home), Dad (Si, an electrician) and 2.5yo (Gracie). Gracie loves rabbits so I think we'll be adding a fur baby to our little family soon!
What are the 3 words that define your parenting style?
Respectful, unruffled, silly.
What is your children's current favourite toy?
Wooden play food - Gracie will 'cook' food in her kitchen and hold tea parties with her bunny (and us) for hours!
What is your - and your children's - favourite toy of all time?
Gracie's is her sand pit. She plays in it every day, in all weathers! We both love to play with her wooden blocks, I build the towers and Gracie knocks them down!
What is your fondest childhood memory?
We practically lived at the beach when Si and I were kids, and we are lucky enough to have a holiday cottage in Whitstable, Kent, so we have regular beach days. Nothing fancy, just playing with the sand and pebbles, crabbing, walking, paddling in the sea and enjoying the fresh sea air. Life is very simple at the seaside!
What have you found most surprising about your children / about being a parent?
We really struggled with how much life changed after having Gracie. The first year especially was so, so hard and at times we didn't think we could survive it! But we all did, and having her in our lives makes us better people - more appreciative, more supportive, kinder, sillier people!
Do you have any tips for other parents? About toys, learning or anything else…
Fewer, better toys for sure - ones that encourage open-ended play. Gracie is such a creative child and doesn't need masses of toys. We've also found that being screen-free makes a huge difference to her concentration and behaviour - she loves to read, draw and play, and doesn't seem to miss TV at all.
And finally, anything else you wish to add?
For any parents struggling - it will pass!

I just finished the last paper I will ever write for school. It's submitted and I'm officially done. All that's left to do is walk across the stage in a week.
But I'm still not done.
It's the holiday season which means for people my age, there's a lot of dread. I mean, we're all excited to stock up on gift cards and eat real food for a while, but with that comes those questions.
"Do you have a job?" -No.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" -No.
"Do you think you'll ever settle down and get married?" -*beats head against nearest wall*
"When are you going to go back to school? A masters never hurt anyone…" -*runs away screaming*
"Do you think kids are in your future?" -I'm sure I'll come across them from time to time.
You get the picture. In a lot of ways, these questions seem to remind us of where we fall short in everyone else's eyes. Sure I graduated from college, but what good is that when you work part time at theater or a restaurant? And sure I've learned to be independent, but all most people see is that I'm alone and apparently that's concerning.
Well I say keep the questions coming. Sure, they suck to answer because quite frankly, I don't know the answer and I don't think I will anytime soon. But they remind me that there's more to life than what I've experienced. I'm only 22; the world is in front of me. I will never be done.
So dearest family, if any of you read this, thanks for being annoying with all of your questions. Also, feel free to use this as a guide for this year's holiday gatherings, you know, to save time and all.
And yay for graduation!

Hao snug and comfy on his perch
He looked so content and comfortable I had to share a few shots.
He looked so content and comfortable I had to share a few shots.
My first take on the latest WikiLeaks release: unwise.If it was just "embarrassing" info I wouldn't have the same impression. But some of the stuff released is really bad. Like the U.S. was secretly helping attack Al Qaeda forces inside Yemen with Yemen's cooperation. WikiLeaks has the president of Yemen telling the U.S., "we'll continue to say they were our bombs." Now in whose interest is it to reveal something like that? doug
With no nesting material and no nesting box Mon lays 3 eggs 3 days in a row.So I think, "ok, she wants to lay eggs" and add nesting material and a comfy nesting box. The result? No eggs for the last 2 days. What on earth is going on inside that little brain of hers? doug
This year's winter solstice, on December 21, will also coincide with a full moon and total lunar eclipse.This won't happen again until 2094, so if you don't want to wait a very long time you should plan on seeing it this year. doug
As I posted in the last note, since Mon is laying eggs anyway (3 as of this afternoon), I put in a nesting box. They won't go near it, so I took off the roof for now to see if that sparks their curiosity.While at the supermarket, in the pet corner, they didn't seem to have bird nesting material, but they did have bunched up "timothy rolls" as rabbit foot. I Googled it on my iPhone there at the store and found references saying timothy hay works well for finch nesting material, so I bought a package, broke open the bunch and put it in. Maybe they'll busy themselves making a nest. We all need hobbies, right? The timothy hay smells really nice and fresh! And "made in the U.S.A.". doug
Just in case…
