Below is a statement from Christie-Lee McNally, Executive Director of Free Our Internet:
The Senate Commerce Committee's effort to review the current state of online consumer privacy with tomorrow's hearing is a positive step, however one of the largest abusers of personal data, Facebook, will be absent. When examining an issue as important as the handling of Americans' online data, it is critical to include the largest keepers of our personal, behavioral information. Omitting a company from the witness list that has access to the intimate data of more than 2.23 billion monthly active users and that has already been caught abusing that data, seems futile. We are hopeful that as Congress continues to examine online consumer privacy, it will include consideration of Facebook at all steps along the way, regardless of how many times Mark Zuckerberg has testified in the past.

These two quick JavaServer Faces (JSF) tips show how to extract request parameters and redirect page loads using a bean backing.
When an application sends an HTTP GET request, it usually sends different kinds of parameters. Using a JSF backing bean, you can extract a request parameter like this:
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String parameter_value = (String) facesContext.getExternalContext().
Here is a JSF backing bean method for executing a page redirect:
private void redirectToPage(String toUrl) {

I had a few little patch tests on these window panes for at least 2 months before I decided to take the plunge and go dark. The conservatory in our house is such a beautiful feature, however the white paint was very tired and needed some serious TLC, so it was a choice between a fresh coat of white, a pale grey tone or a significant leap to black where the change would be difficult to reverse. I have always loved the more industrial look of Crittall windows and as this space is very traditional, I felt going dark would give it a more up-to-date feel while simultaneously accentuating the classic design of the doors.
The dark won my heart in the end. I wanted the finish to be as matt as possible - to get that Crittall window feel – so the paint choice was extremely important. A friend of mine had recently been raving about Fusion Mineral Paint as it doesn't mark up and is easy to clean (unusual for a matt finish), however the colours were either too dark or or very blue. Eventually, I did a little tester using sample pots of the Navy and Ash Black and mixing them up in equal measures. This created a beautiful dark blue/grey tone, very similar to Farrow and Ball railings, just a tad darker. I found the perfect colour!
- The paint colours mixed together equal measures - Before
-During -After
The window frames were all sanded down then painted with 3 coats of the Fusion mix, no primer or sealer were needed, this paint is amazingly smooth to apply and a little goes a long way, I had bought a total of 12 paint pots, as they look small and I only ended up using 6 of them. The instant change in this room was unbelievable, it immediately framed the garden drawing the greenery inside and creating a sense of fluidity.
Originally I was going to paint the pillars dark too, but then decided in order to compliment the glass ceiling they needed to be light, so opted for Farrow and Ball 'Wevet' instead, along with the rest of the wood work and walls in this room. The dark paint did mark up a little initially with dust and a few tiny chips in some places, which at first was a concern, but a paint specialist confirmed that unlike other paints it takes a few weeks to harden and once it does will be stronger than normal paints. Four months later and this appears to be correct.
This colour change is even possible on uPVC as discovered by my instagram pal Jess, thehoppyhome.co.uk. When Jess saw the finished result on my page, she did a similar paint over in her uPVC conservatory. Firstly, she primed all the frames with two coats of 'Zinsser Bulls Eye 1.2.3 Primer-Sealer' then followed with a coat of 'Johnstone's Trade Eggshell' colour matched to the Farrow & Ball Railings for a similar effect. The result was amazing!
I am a great believer that a lick of paint can completely enhance a space and this room says it all. At night, it does feel a little vast, absorbing into the dark with no defined colour to differentiate the two. However, during the day it emphasises the greenery beyond, beautifully framing the garden while seamlessly blending in with the greens. Unexpectedly, the effect is a lot more subtle than the white, yet still offers a gorgeous contrast between the inside and outside of the house. The transformation is dramatic and I love it, proving it sometimes pays dividends to take a risk and experiment.
How I Style the Clutter...
With a house full of pets and children, a question friends often ask me, is how despite the inevitable bits lying here and there and everywhere, can a room look stylish? Firstly, I try to avoid anything too bright/plastic and garish for the kids at home, obviously we have a few items of this very description, but when not being played with they tend to be hidden away in the most subtle baskets/toy storage I can find. I love a challenge and to think outside the box in regard to the way I style the clutter in our home. Whether it's about accessorising, storage solutions, a splash of colour or up-cycling , I try and maximise every existing item that is visible to the eye so the house looks its very best. This is achieved through clutter being styled or completely hidden!
I love the above baskets with pom poms for the children's areas in the house. They add an instant splash of colour, hide all the toys when not being played with and look stylish at the same time, I found these on Etsy who have lots of different colour options. I used fruit storage units below these from Cox & Cox, they are great to store all the little bits such as lego, wood blocks and puzzles. Wall stickers are amazing at making a dead space instantly look more characterful, I got this rabbit from Bell & Boo. Little details such as flowers, ball lights and neon lighting also add an element of fun to a space and I love having picture rails along the walls in family areas with family pics, though I have to admit I am very behind on updating these as the kids get older...
Storageboxes are a decluttering must, stacked neatly along with book racks and sectioned magazine storage. Canvas baskets are ideal for throwing the soft toys in at the end of the day and the above (along with the Teepee) are from Wildire Teepees. I usually keep the walls quite neutral in these areas, so the fun colours and patterns can speak for themselves. Chalk paint on certain walls is great to avoid writing anywhere else, these two areas are painted in Eico Chalk Paint, they have loads of colours to choose from, this is a lovely blue toned grey that the kids can draw on to their hearts content.
The more stylish clutter, a mixture of sentimental items, plants, books, candles and photos, are arranged on shelves around the house (the above two photos were featured in a Rockmystyle blog). This provides a homely and lived in feel, however, keeping them contained to specific areas allows other spaces to beclutter free creating a sense of equilibrium.
It's not just the kids' areas that have baskets, they are literally everywhere around the house. Whether containing umbrellas by the door, loo rolls in the bathroom or dirty laundry, there is always a basket to hide a multitude of clutter creators. Plants look wonderful when popped in them too - John Lewis, Cox & Cox, TK Max and OlliElla always have a great selection to pick from.
A splash of colour on the inside of doors not only adds a fun focal point to any room but also distracts from the clutter. Hooks on the inside are always a useful way to hang special items that would usually be discarded into a basket or on the floor. Decorating the walls with pretty shelves and toys also helps avoid too much chaos on the floor and I love stacking suitcases on top of each other as they're ideal for storing puzzles, books and Lego.
The above doors are painted in Farrow and Ball Nancy Blushes (pink) and Babouche (yellow)
Desk storage has suddenly become a necessity for my 5-year-old daughter. I made this desk using an Ikea work top cut down to size along with two of the Eket range units either side, adding pretty handles for a colour splash. The vibrant shelves are again Ikea spice racks that I painted. I always keep nice simple gift boxes such as those from The White Company, JoJo Maman, Bebe and Jo Malone as they're great for storing little bits.
I tend to put pin boards up on hidden walls that we walk past regularly but are not a focal point in the house, such as outside the downstairs loo. These are great to pin memories, things to do and reminders. Cute hooks on the children's walls are also very handy to hang pretty outfits that are usually hidden away in the wardrobe.
I hope this helps give a little insight on how I style the clutter. The bottom line is that certain clutter can work if presented correctly, you don't have to be minimal to have a clutter free home, it's about the right storage and making it appealing to the eye. There's so much more to share so I can't wait to post my next blog for you!

The Presidential candidates… Can we depend on either of them if elected to be President? The debate was last night and I'm sure the ones who were "already decided" when supporting their candidate did not change their minds based solely on this debate. However, what about the ones who were undecided? Did the debate do anything to sway them one way or another? Of course, Clinton already came into it with a sizable advantage due to the recently released remarks Donald Trump made on video about disrespecting and assaulting women. Trump apologized, but from what I heard many did not feel he was sincere. The question here is, "Should he have been held accountable for words he said in 2005?" Trump dismissed it as "locker room banter." Should we consider it as such? I'm sure men who think they are speaking in confidence and secrecy will say things that they wouldn't say openly to society. If that is the case, should he have been penalized for merely ranting with the boys? The truth is that the video is "extremely demeaning to women," but if none of those women ever lodged a complaint against him and allowed it to happen then can it really be considered assault? I believe this video had been held and timed for release just so it could have an effect on this election (That seems fairly obvious to me). Somehow I have the feeling that there are more "worse" videos out there waiting to be released as well. Many of his former supporters in the Republican party have now shunned him because of those remarks. In all fairness I do believe others in high politics have said and done similar things (including perhaps Bill Clinton). However, Bill Clinton was never caught on video (and Bill is no longer running for President). Hillary Clinton allegedly covered up a lot of things with her erasing of private emails. She herself has admitted it was a mistake (which I am not convinced of either). The difference between her incident and Trump is that Trump can't get away with labeling what he did (and said) as a "mistake." For now Hillary can, but once more proof comes out that may change. For the debate, there were notable things that gave me concern. The one thing I had issue with was Trump declaring that if elected he would appoint a special prosecutor for Clinton's deletion of emails. I did not think highly of this because if Trump is going to jail her for her crime then maybe he should appoint a special prosecutor for his alleged assault of women as well. Trump says he never really did it, but after seeing the video I just find that difficult to believe. When they grilled Trump about it he merely "deflected" to other issues without really addressing it and that was another concern for me. For the debate I felt Trump was the obvious aggressor. He attacked Hillary constantly and she was slow to answer some questions. The debate last night was "nasty." The hatred was obvious. Did that help the candidates or us? Most of the things that have had a negative impact on Trump"s campaign have actually come from his own mouth. If he could exercise a little more control over his emotions then I honestly believe a lot more people would see him as being favorable. I will admit that for this debate he controlled himself much better than he had previously, but after all the things that he has said and done was it enough? Election day will tell that story. The sleeves are now "rolled up" for this one. I already know that people are out looking to level the table by attempting to dig up some kind of dirt on Bill Clinton. Don't be surprised if something emerges soon. Until then, I just want this election to be over with so that we can get back to some degree of normalcy. Thank you for checking out my Daily Thought and as always I wish you the very best that life has to offer.

Heart Club
The heart, what a beautiful thing that we have this organ living in our bodies that means so much. It's growing, it's adapting, it's feeling it's accepting, it's loving, it's breaking, its dying, it's EVERYTHING. Our hearts are so valuable, every day we should be recognizing and thanking them for all that they do. Of course there are the times that our hearts are broken or interrupted and it's painful to feel, but I think I personally take for granted what a beautiful thing the heart is.
What a week of history this week has been. I am so proud to be a woman. I am proud to walk among so many hard working, independent, loving, giving and life changing women. I have had so many thoughts on all of the protesting and have been left wondering what I am really changing, what more could I be doing. I keep coming back to the simplicity of spreading love. There are so many problems in the world, so many things I can't wrap my head around. But there is one thing I know and that is love is felt by everyone and that it's a mutual feeling everyone wants to feel, all over the world.
And when I look back at history I have to think to myself, wow, how grateful I am to live a world that is trying to change, a world that is accepting and allowing me to exist. There will always be problems and things that we need to work for, to change, but I compare today to years ago and I feel grateful.
I have decided to treat this earth like a giant heart that needs love and care. It needs love to feel love, to be recognized, so that in return it gives back and grows bigger and stronger! Yes maybe parts of the heart are broken but we are working to make those parts whole again.
Spread love.
with love,

Trump bid to smooth relations with German chancellor complicated by policy, personal differences
Trump's summit with German chancellor finds little in common
WASHINGTON - A White House summit Friday aimed at easing friction between President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel was undermined by the visible lack of warmth between the two leaders and sharp differences on immigration and trade.
Trump used his first meeting with Merkel to affirm his "strong support" for NATO and to declare he is not an "isolationist" on free trade after a campaign in which he questioned U.S. policies on multilateral security and economic alliances in Europe and elsewhere.
But the two remained far apart on immigration in the wake of Trump's efforts to impose a temporary travel ban on refugees and immigrants from several majority-Muslim nations in the Middle East and Northern Africa, a move that contrasts sharply with Merkel's more liberal policies.
For a second time, federal judges in Hawaii and Maryland this week suspended the president's executive order, though his administration has vowed to appeal the rulings.
"Immigration is a privilege, not a right," Trump said at a joint news conference with Merkel, adding, "the safety of our citizens must always come first."
'Something in common'
Merkel's decision to welcome large numbers of Syrian refugees stands in sharp contrast to Trump's insistence that the U.S. refugee program has made the country vulnerable to terrorist infiltration.
Merkel on Friday acknowledged the need to secure borders and work to integrate immigrants into society, but she emphasized that such goals have "to be done while looking at the refugees as well, giving them opportunities to shape their own lives … (and) help countries who right now are not able to do so, sometimes because they have civil war."
Beyond policy, their summit was marked by an Oval Office photo op during which Trump appeared to disregard Merkel's suggestion that they shake hands and he generally avoided making eye contact with her as news photographers captured the scene.
And Trump put the German leader on the spot during their news conference when he made an awkward joke about them having "something in common" over his unfounded allegations that President Barack Obama had ordered U.S. intelligence agencies to wiretap Trump Tower in New York.
He appeared to be referring to reports in 2013 that the Obama administration authorized eavesdropping on Merkel's personal cellphone calls, a point of tension between her and Obama.
Merkel, looking uncomfortable, chose not to respond to Trump's remarks.
"It's always better to talk to one another than about one another," Merkel said through an interpreter during her opening remarks.
Beyond their seemingly divergent worldview, the two leaders could not be more different in terms of personality.
Trump is a brash, outspoken businessman and Merkel a staid and reserved trained scientist.
The summit was being closely watched at home and abroad for signs of how the two leaders would engage each other. As much as Trump has questioned the multilateral alliances of the post-World War II international order and Merkel has defended them, German officials insisted that her visit was aimed at finding common ground.
NATO allegation
Yet unlike Trump's White House summits with several other world leaders - such as prime ministers Shinzo Abe of Japan, Theresa May of Britain and Justin Trudeau of Canada - there were few signs Friday that he and Merkel had built much personal rapport.
Hoping to get reassurances from Trump on trade ties, Merkel arrived in Washington with an entourage that included German business executives to emphasize the economic ties between the nations. Trump has opposed multilateral trade deals, and talks on a major U.S.-European pact called the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, which had been negotiated by the Obama administration, have stalled.
Trump said he is not anti-trade, but wants "fair trade," and he reiterated his past criticism that U.S. policies have harmed American workers.
Despite his endorsement of NATO, Trump reiterated his campaign-trail criticism that member nations are not paying their "fair share" to support the security alliance.
Trump said some countries owe "vast sums" in dues, which is "very unfair to the United States" - an allegation that appeared to be based on an incomplete understanding of how the alliance is funded.
Trump stated that each nation agreed to contribute 2 percent of its gross domestic product to NATO. In fact, the alliance had long ago set a goal that each member would devote at least 2 percent of GDP to defense in their own budgets.
The members contribute their capabilities to NATO, not monetary assessments. Those who haven't reached 2 percent, which is the majority of nations, don't "owe" or have to make up shortfalls of the past.

10% loyalty discount: If you choose to protect your new device with Full Cover or Damage Cover when you upgrade your EE plan, you will get a 10% loyalty discount off the total monthly insurance payment each month. This discount will last for as long as you keep the EE insurance product for your new registered device, up to a maximum of 60 months and is only available if your previous device was insured by EE. The discount will come off the total monthly insurance payment (which includes your monthly insurance premium plus Insurance Premium Tax at the prevailing rate). Offer only available to EE customers who upgrade their EE plan and purchase a new EE insurance product at the same time. Only applicable to new policies purchased after the 1st May 2018. Offer not available if there is a gap between the expiry of your previous insurance product and taking out a new product. Not available with any other offer or discount, except 50% no claims discount on excess fee and multi-policy discount (we will apply the loyalty discount first, then you will get the multi-policy discount based on that discounted cost).
50% no claims discount on excess fee: Offer only for customers who 1) previously had a Full Cover or Damage Cover product and 2) did not make a successful claim under the Full Cover or Damage Cover policy that immediately preceded the current insurance policy. If you make a successful claim under your Full Cover or Damage Cover policy and you have not completed a successful claim under your previous policy, you will get a one-off 50% no claims discount on the excess payable. Only applicable to new policies purchased after the 1st May 2018. Offer not available if there has been a gap between your previous product and your current product; if you have failed to make all monthly payments due for your insurance product; if you made a fraudulent claim on your previous policy or if the claim you submit is fraudulent (in our reasonable opinion).

There are a lot of expectations from the car and the company gave us a sneak peek into what the car will look like. From what we could see, the Santro continues to get the tall boy design and that's good. However, there are now a host of new colours on offer. The company already announced that there will be a total of 7 colours on offer namely - Typhoon Silver, Polar White, Stardust (dark grey), Imperial Beige (as seen in the pictures), Marina Blue, Fiery Red, and that Diana Green.

The biennial survey uses the Pressure-State-Response framework for state of the environment reporting to assess peoples' perceptions of air quality, native plants and animals, native forest and bush, soils, beaches and coastal waters, marine fisheries, marine reserves, freshwaters, national parks, wetlands, urban environments, and the natural environment compared to other developed nations.
The authors of the 116-page published report, which presents analyses and evaluates data gathered in 2010, are Professor Ken Hughey, Associate Professor Geoff Kerr and Professor Ross Cullen of Lincoln University.
New Zealanders' perceptions of all the main resource areas listed above were tested. Respondents were also asked to identify the most important environmental issue facing New Zealand and the world. Twenty-four percent of respondents identified 'water pollution and/or water' as the most important environmental issue facing New Zealand, while the single biggest issue the world is facing is global warming/climate change. This is consistent with results from the 2008 Environment Perceptions survey.
Freshwater is an area of particular concern to New Zealanders. Respondents want high quality water and value fresh water for its intrinsic, environmental and recreation values. While they consider development important, they rate maintaining in-stream values more highly. These views are consistent with the long-term aim of conservation of the range of benefits provided by freshwater.
"To achieve the desired outcomes with regards to freshwater, respondents favour policies, which combine economic, regulatory and voluntary instruments. They also strongly support a complementary policy of charging for the commercial use of fresh water" says Professor Hughey.
Farming has increased as a perceived main cause of damage to freshwater by 27 percentage points over the 10-year period of surveys (from 24.7% in 2000 to 51.9% in 2010, an increase of 110%).
Professor Hughey says on a positive note perception of management of the environment has improved significantly over the years. Sixty-two percent of the respondents rated our national parks and New Zealand's natural environment compared to other develop countries, as either 'very well managed' or 'well managed'.
The report as a whole is a thoroughly comprehensive document and should be a valuable item in the tool kit of everyone involved in environmental planning, management and development in New Zealand or any related activity. The full report includes recommendations to planners and policy makers.
The report 'Public Perceptions of New Zealand's Environment: 2010' is available from Lincoln University.
Note: With regards to farming being perceived as the main cause of damage to freshwater, Lincoln University researchers are working in this area to continue to develop farming systems to reduce farm runoff and environmental impacts.

Cole Blackwater's existence is not what it was. as soon as a political celebrity inside of Ottawa's environmental move, he now runs an almost defunct conservation method consulting company that tremendously lacks a paying customer. His ex-wife loathes him for a scandalous affair that ended their marriage, he feels he is failing his eight-year-old daughter as a father, and he is turning a ways too frequently to the bottle to resolve his problems.
When Peggy McSorlie, head of the jap Slopes Conservation workforce, seeks his aid to forestall a mining venture deliberate for Alberta's very good Cardinal Divide, Blackwater jumps at the chance to earn sufficient funds to pay the lease and purchase a couple of pints at his favourite pub. but if Mike Barnes, head of the mining undertaking, is brutally murdered and a thorough member of jap Slopes is accused of killing him, Blackwater needs to first turn out the man's innocence that allows you to shop his personal company, and the way forward for the Cardinal Divide.

There's a rift among the footy-playing denizens of reaper towers. On one side the massed hordes of unwashed fifa lovers, on the other one heroic, sensual man still believing – still hoping - in Shingo "Seabass" Takatsuka and Pro Evolution soccer. It wasn't always this way. Once, fifa was a figure of lumpy fun, even back in the 16-bit days all the cool kids were playing the embryonic and axiometric-tastic International Superstar Soccer instead. It mutated into Pro Evolution Soccer on the playstation/playstation 2 reaching its zenith with the brilliant pro evo 5 while fifa continued to snivel along in its wake like a three legged dog with alopecia. But something happened during the transition to the latest generation of consoles. Seabass took his eye off the ball, fifa sprinted onto it and rifled it into the top corner before turning to Seabass and kicking him viciously in the vas deferens.
Fifa is really good now, PES has been forced to up its game. It's pathetic early attempts at online play, ugly presentation and lack of licences have partially been addressed (well…it's still got a worryingly large number of unlicensed gibberish teams and players that sound like refugees from Middle Earth) and PES 2011 played very well. Last years FIFA in the other hand seemed to regress slightly, and most of the multiplayer matches I played turned into a bit of a midfield slog with 22 Van Bommells kicking each other and falling over the ball before scoring the occasional cheap or jammy goal. So the PES demo has dropped early…is it an epic Torres-style fail or a Javier Hernadez style revelation?
Based on the demo…well neither really. As always pro evo eskews radical change and it plays and looks very like last years version. It does seem a lot tighter and smarter though, the players seem to better control the ball and there are several new gameplay features that pose great challenges to older, less flexible players like myself ie an Off the Ball feature where you control a second player with the right thumb stick. Get used to using that poxy stick, it's critical now for special moves and that. The AI seems brighter but there's still the occasional endearing bit of PES randomness with defenders kicking the ball into their own faces, players tripping over their own feet etc. The teams included in the demo are Milan, Manure, Porto, Napoli, Santos and Penarol.
As usual the animation is awesome and the music's generic cheese. The first game I played was a 4-0 rout at the hands of Manchester United, being double–teamed by Rooney and Nani (really needed the mental image of being spit-roasted by Shrek and Zombie Michael Jackson, especially just after dinner) The big-name players like Rooney, Cavani and the almost unplayable Zlatan make a big difference, they are nearly impossible to knock off the ball and shrug off defenders like screaming toddlers. Overall seems faster too.
Ultimately it plays a great game and a lot of the AI quirks seem to have been ironed out but if you are a hardened fifa footsoldier there's nothing in this demo that would sway your twisted allegiance. Now go home and get your f*****' shinebox

Abstract : Data are presented defining thermal stability limits for model structures of fluorinated chloro- and bromo-carbons suitable for use as fire extinguishing agents. Heating analyses have been made for an idealized extinguishant tank subjected to various flight regimes. Insulation thicknesses as well as example calculations of weight penalties due to insulation necessary to maintain temperatures below decomposition have been computed for various extinguishants in the idealized tank under Mach 4 and 5 regimes. A literature survey and study of the feasibility of using dry powder extinguishants as in-flight extinguishants has been made. Problems which may be encountered are discussed. (Author)

It remains to identify the agency behind any directionality that ecosystems might exhibit. Our natural inclination is such a search would be to look for agencies that conform to our notions of "lawful" behaviors. But such a scope could be too narrow. It would behoove us to broaden our perspective and attempt to generalize the notion of "law" and consider as well the category of "process". A process resembles a law in that it consists of rulelike behaviors, but whereas a law always has a determinate outcome, a process is guided more by its interactions with aleatoric events.
The indeterminacy of such action is perhaps well illustrated by the artificial example of Polya's Urn (Eggenberger and Polya, 1923). Polya's process consists of picking from an urn containing red and blue balls. The process starts with one red ball and one blue ball. The urn is shaken and a ball is drawn at random. If it is a red ball, then the ball is returned to the urn with yet another red ball; if a blue ball is picked, then it likewise is returned with another blue ball. The question then arises whether the ratio of red to blue balls approaches a fixed value. It is rather easy to demonstrate that the law of large number takes over and that after a sufficient number of draws, the ratio changes only within bounds that progressively shrink as the process continues. Say the final ratio is 0.3879175. The second question that arises is whether that ratio is unique? If the urn is emptied and the process repeated, then will the ratio once again converge to 0.3879175? The answer is no. The second time it might converge to 0.81037572. It is rather easy to show in Monte-Carlo fashion that the final ratios of many successive runs of Polya's process are uniformly distributed over the interval from 0 to 1.
One sees in Polya's Urn how direction can evolve out of a stochastic background. The key within the process is the feedback that is occurring between the history of draws and the current one. Hence, in looking for the origins of directionality in real systems, we turn to consider feedback within living systems. Feedback, after all, has played a central role in much of what is known as the theory of "self-organization" (e.g. Eigen, 1971; Maturana and Varela, 1980; DeAngelis et al., 1986; Haken, 1988; Kauffman, 1995). Central to control and directionality in cybernetic systems is the concept of the causal loop. A causal loop, or circuit is any concatenation of causal connections whereby the last member of the pathway is a partial cause of the first. Primarily because of the ubiquity of material recycling in ecosystems, causal loops have long been recognized by ecologists (Hutchinson, 1948).
It was the late polymath, Gregory Bateson (1972) who observed "a causal circuit will cause a non-random response to a random event at that position in the circuit at which the random event occurred." But why is this so? To answer this last question, let us confine further discussion to a subset of causal circuits that are called autocatalytic (Ulanowicz, 1997). Henceforth, autocatalysis will be considered any manifestation of a positive feedback loop whereby the direct effect of every link on its downstream neighbor is positive. Without loss of generality, let us focus our attention on a serial, circular conjunction of three processes—A, B, and C (Figure 4.2) Any increase in A is likely to induce a corresponding increase in B, which in turn elicits an increase in C, and whence back to A.1
A didactic example of autocatalysis in ecology is the community that builds around the aquatic macrophyte, Utricularia (Ulanowicz, 1995). All members of the genus Utricularia are carnivorous plants. Scattered along its feather-like stems and leaves are small bladders, called utricles (Figure 4.3a). Each utricle has a few hair-like triggers at its

Figure 4.3 The Utricularia system. (a) View of the macrophyte with detail of a utricle. (b) The three flow autocatalytic configuration of processes driving the Utricularia system.
'The emphasis in this chapter is on positive feedback and especially autocatalysis. It should be mentioned in passing that negative feedback also plays significant roles in complex ecosystem dynamics (Chapter 7), especially as an agency of regulation and control.
terminal end, which, when touched by a feeding zooplankter, opens the end of the bladder, and the animal is sucked into the utricle by a negative osmotic pressure that the plant had maintained inside the bladder. In nature the surface of Utricularia plants is always host to a film of algal growth known as periphyton. This periphyton in turn serves as food for any number of species of small zooplankton. The autocatalytic cycle is closed when the Utricularia captures and absorbs many of the zooplankton (Figure 4.3b).
In chemistry, where reactants are simple and fixed, autocatalysis behaves just like any other mechanism. As soon as one must contend with organic macromolecules and their ability to undergo small, incremental alterations, however, the game changes. With ecosystems we are dealing with open systems (see Chapter 2), so that whenever the action of any catalyst on its downstream member is affected by contingencies (rather than being obligatory), a number of decidedly non-mechanical behaviors can arise (Ulanowicz, 1997). For the sake of brevity, we discuss only a few:
Perhaps most importantly, autocatalysis is capable of exerting selection pressure on its own, ever-changing, malleable constituents. To see this, one considers a small spontaneous change in process B. If that change either makes B more sensitive to A or a more effective catalyst of C, then the transition will receive enhanced stimulus from A. In the Utricularia example, diatoms that have a higher P/B ratio and are more palatable to microheterotrophs would be favored as members of the periphyton community. Conversely, if the change in B makes it either less sensitive to the effects of A or a weaker catalyst of C, then that perturbation will likely receive diminished support from A. That is to say the response of this causal circuit is not entirely symmetric, and out of this asymmetry emerges a direction. This direction is not imparted or cued by any externality; its action resides wholly internal to the system. As one might expect from a causal circuit, the result is to a degree tautologous—autocatalytic systems respond to random events over time in such a way as to increase the degree of autocatalysis. As alluded to above, such asymmetry has been recognized in physics since the mid-1960s, and it transcends the assumption of reversibility. It should be emphasized that this directionality, by virtue of its internal and transient nature cannot be considered teleological. There is no externally determined or pre-existing goal toward which the system strives. Direction arises purely out of immediate response by the internal system to a novel, random event impacting one of the autocatalytic members.
To see how another very important directionality can emerge in living systems, one notes in particular that any change in B is likely to involve a change in the amounts of material and energy that are required to sustain process B. As a corollary to selection pressure we immediately recognize the tendency to reward and support any changes that serve to bring ever more resources into B. Because this circumstance pertains to any and all members of the causal circuit, any autocatalytic cycle becomes the epi-center of a centripetal flow of resources toward which as many resources as possible will converge (Figure 4.4). That is, an autocatalytic loop defines itself as the focus of centripetal flows. One sees didactic example of such centripetality in coral reef communities, which by their considerable synergistic activities draw a richness of nutrients out of a desert-like and relatively inactive surrounding sea. Centripetality is obviously related to the more commonly recognized attribute of system growth (Chapter 6).

"I appreciate the relationship between man and tree. There is a co-evolution present. I am interested in how man uses the forest and how the relationship grows and thrives in worldly cultures. My curiosity has taken me as far as South Africa, the Amazon, and the Hawaiian Islands where indigenous people believe the forest is a spiritual place where ancestors dwell."—Brad Sells
Sells' sculptural woodwork evolves from a conviction that all living things have a soul. As he shapes and reveals the visage of each piece, he views his role as capturing then releasing the voice of each tree. From this vantage point, he carves exotic and domestic woods into the sensual, tactile, and delicate forms showcased in this portfolio.
Sells works in his own Bark Studio in his hometown of Cookeville, Tennessee. Though located in a relatively rural area, Sells' artistic reputation, strong work ethic, and recognition of his unique skills have led to invitations to travel and carve rare woods on distant continents. His work has been exhibited in museums and private collections throughout the world, including the Smithsonian's Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C.

My hero: Ben the labrador
Saturday 29 November 2009
ow is one to write about a family pet without plunging feet-first into a slough of bilge and bathos? There are people who find offensive the very idea of pets, and they have a point – when Byron spoke of animals being "spoiled" by intimate proximity to us he was not thinking of pet manicures and a comfy place on the hearth-rug. The poet knew that our attitude to animals is hopelessly confused: since we are lords of the universe we feel no compunction in eating them, yet certain special ones we take into our homes to share our lives with us. What's a dog to think?

When I was growing up, It seemed like there were many more negative depictions of credit card use than positive ones. Maybe this was for the best, as it certainly made me very cautious when considering getting a credit card of my own. And yet, this image also caused me to miss out on the essential personal finance lessons for far longer than I should have: Cash-back credit cards are an essential part of building your financial future!
In this article, we are going to explore three amazing cash-back credit cards for young professionals, along with learning just how and why credit cards are so important to your financial future. Keep reading to find out!
What are Cash-back Credit Cards?
I'm fairly confident that most of us are aware of what a credit card is: A line of financial credit extended by a company against which you can borrow money. If you do not pay off your debt at the end of each month you can run into the negative impacts of high interest rates.
Cash-back credit cards are credit cards that offer specific cash-back incentives for purchases made with the card. You could look at it as a discount or rebate earned each time you swipe or insert the chip. So why should you get a cash-back credit card? Find out below!
Why Should You Use Cash-Back Credit Cards?
So what makes cash-back credit cards such an essential personal finance tool? The answer is simple! As long as you can pay off every dollar spent with your credit card at the end of the month, using cash-back cards offer the following incentives:
- Building your credit score – Your future big life investments will require an established credit score, and paying off credit card incentives responsibly is a key part of that!
- Minimizing your expenses – Cash-back cards allow you to reduce your monthly expenses by using it to pay everything from phone bills to grocery payments
- Maximizing your savings – The greatest credit cards are those that give you cash-back bonuses for specific categories of purchases! This means you can tailor your credit card usage to your needs

Cannabis Edibles
Many myths surround the consumption of cannabis and cannabis edibles. However, not all of them apply to fit and healthy marijuana users. Here are a few myths you can safely ignore if you're in good shape and regularly hit the gym.
1. Cannabis Munchies Ruin Your Diet
Studies show that cannabis promotes hunger, but that doesn't mean you are doomed to binge away your progress every time you use the drug. Choosing a cannabis strain that is CBD dominant can help to reduce the food cravings commonly associated with marijuana usage. According to nutritionists, athletes often make better eating decisions than other people under the effects of cannabis. Once you've become hooked on fitness, it seems even getting high can't take away your drive.
2. Cannabis Has No Benefits for Healthy People
Scientists have found a huge range of medical uses for marijuana. However, it's wrong to assume cannabis only holds benefits for people who are sick. CBD can help you relax after exercise and could even reduce muscle spasms and pain. Many athletes have high levels of adrenaline, which is great news when you are pushing yourself hard in the gym but not so good when you are trying to relax and enjoy your rest day.
3. Cannabis Enhances Athletic Performance
Some athletes believe that THC will improve their athletic performance. However, studies don't support this myth. Cannabis won't help you lift heavier or improve your stamina, although CBD-dominant strains of cannabis and CBD oil might help you relax and enjoy your rest days.
4. Smoking Cannabis Poses No Risks to Health
Research suggests that cannabis doesn't pose lung cancer risks like cigarettes do. However, inhaling smoke of any kind can irritate your lungs, increasing the risk of chronic bronchitis. If you decide to use cannabis, protect your lung health by vaporizing it instead of smoking. Cannabis Edibles are another option, but be careful if you decide to indulge this way, it can be difficult to control the dose. A safer way to get the benefits of cannabis is to use full spectrum CBD/THC which has been extracted from the plant and made into various products like THC Capsules and cannabis infused topicals and tinctures.

I cheekily posted this picture to Instagram with the caption, "Get ready for fall(s)," last weekend, but I have to admit I really am. Photographically, autumn means peak creativity for me in the North Country, including visits to places like this: Lampson Falls.
Tag: Falls
Waterfall Around the Corner
Rocks, Beach, Falls
The three sides of the pool at the base of Lampson Falls take on drastically different characters: to the north, the fluffy rapids of the falls themselves; to the west, the sandy beach, popular with campers; to the south, the rocky mini-cliff where hikers lay in the sun. A small cluster of people happened to be on each side when I took this picture, providing a sense of scale to the very 3-D space.

Our team has been making significant progress, successfully completing a POC and MVP of our protocol. Today we mark another exciting milestone in our mission to give you control of your data, the release of the first of our smart contracts via GitHub!
We will continue to open source elements of the Dock protocol to encourage community feedback and involvement as we work together in achieving Dock's vision.
The open-sourced smart contracts include:
Token Contracts — This includes the erc721 contract, the (optional but including for testing) ERC 20 contract, and interfaces.
Plasma Functionality Contracts — This includes the solution for users to enter/exit + resolve disputes, perform bonding, and uses the sparse-merkle tree approach to compress signatures.
The smart contracts that we've released utilize Plasma Cash and will settle any transactions arising from the transfer of data using the Dock protocol. This is a necessary step as it ensures anyone who sends or receives data within the Dock network will be accurately tracked and their transactions properly settled.
In the process of developing our own unique Plasma Cash scaling solution, Omisego and Loom released a similar solution, which we ultimately decided to adopt and customize to our protocol. During our work on the Plasma Cash solution we additionally developed Plasma Nano to address incremental gas costs, making the overall solution even more cost efficient.
As users transfer data across network participants, these smart contracts will automatically track transactions, and after settlement is made, they'll immutably record the transactions onto the Ethereum blockchain.
If you'd like to learn more about the technical specifics of these contracts, please view the contracts on GitHub.
What's next?
Plasma cash is one of several inputs to enable Dock's core premise for individuals to take control of their data. Throughout our project, we have been designing our solution with a strong user experience geared for anyone who uses the internet. This priority has led us to develop additional components to integrate in our protocol, below is a brief overview for them:
Accountless describes two distinct solutions in Dock: 1 — Participant owned data storage wherein users can select from a number of storage solutions for their Dock data, all of which they own and operate. 2 — "Key-file less" interaction with the blockchain. We feel this is crucial to adoption by the general users as managing your private keys can be challenging for some. We will enable this solution through the provisioning and management of Ethereum accounts on behalf of the user.
Tokenless is another requirement to ensure a realistic UX for the average user by removing interaction with tokens and allowing for Fiat-in-Fiat-out-No-Volatility (FiFoNoVo) participation.
Verified data as described in our 2018 Recap and whitepaper entails attributes and requirements that are not covered in Dock's data exchange solution. These attributes include third party (pull) integration as well as various forms of collaboration. We are currently working through some of the on/off-chain issues inherent in effectively handling large scale, iterative "verification crumbs" in a cost-effective and near real-time manner.
Commitment to open-sourcing
As anyone in the Cryptocurrency and Blockchain space knows, open-source is an expectation, and not without good reason. Traditional business practice is to keep your competitive advantage at all costs, which doesn't make sense in a world where everyone is increasingly connected and willing to work towards a future that benefits us all.
Dock's commitment to open-sourcing our work stems from this viewpoint. We also recognize that having the community use and test our work will lead to a stronger, more robust result. Just as we've built on the progress of those who came before us, we want to give back by allowing anyone to utilize our innovations.
As the world moves towards Web 3.0, we want Dock's actions to help speed this process up. Open-sourcing our work is just the beginning!
