The plight of all & the pledge of few?
Type a??Responsible Tourism Week 2012a?? in your internet search engine when you have some time and youa??ll come up with an overwhelming sources of reference on the concept (I got around 132, 000,000!). Wow thata??s a lot right? Well no, because a closer cheap colchicine look at the sites reveals that a lot of those are somehow linked to just a few organizations. So does it mean that Responsible Tourism is just the concern of few?
Thata??s an interesting question that we have been pondering on and someone rightly pointed out last week at the a??pecha kuchaa?? presentation organized by Responsible Tourism Cape Town that she always sees the same faces over and over again at these events and was buy pills http://thenursery.uk.com/bactroban-price-at-clicks/ wondering why that was the case.
And hence my blog on it! Responsible Tourism Week 2012 a?? a recent occurring that should have firstly been more mediatised I would think. So why is it not? I mean Valentinea??s Day has nearly four times more hits (430, 000,000) in Google search. And I see Valentinea??s Day specials everywhere but has anyone seen Responsible Tourism Week specials? Please do share if you have!
Admitted Valentinea??s Day has huge marketing potential. But so does Responsible Tourism if positioned properly. We live in an era where individuals beg to differ, where everyone wants to be part of the global movement of betterment and positive change. And more and more people travel and wish to travel responsibly. So why is it that not every representative in the tourism industry is rushing forward to become the next best agent of change?
If a tourist has to choose between two competitors, both with approximately the same costing, the former would go for the one offering a more sustainable option – for his or her personal peace of mind. So companies do stand to win by adopting Responsible Tourism as a business initiative!
So then what might be the problem? Why is the response to Responsible Tourism initiatives less that it should be? Due to a lack of assets, a lack of interest, or a lack of time?
Responsible Tourism is a tourism himcolin gel price in oman that a??creates better places for people to live in, and better places to visita??. This starts with the creation of a healthy social, economic and environmental setting. The success or failure of this is the plight of all! So I wonder why then Responsible Tourism is, so far, just the pledge of a selected few?
Please share your thoughts!
Thank you!

text: ISBN 0-940263-00-9 The problems faithfully reflect the world famous Russian school of mathematics, whose folklore is carefully interwoven with more traditional topics. Many of the problems are drawn from the author's rich repertoire of personal experiences, dating back to his younger days as an outstanding competitor in his native Russia, and spanning decades and continents as an organizer of competitions at the highest level. -- GEORGE BERZSENYI The book contains a very nice collection of problems of various difficulty. I particularly liked the problems on combinatorics and geometry. -- PAUL ERDÖS Professor Soifer has put together a splendid collection of elementary problems designed to lead students into significant mathematical concepts and techniques. Highly recommended. -- MARTIN GARDNER Retelling the best solutions and sharing the secrets of discovery are part of the process of teaching problem solving. Ideally, this process is characterized by mathematical skill, good taste, and wit. It is a characteristically personal process and the best such teachers have surely left their personal marks on students and readers. Alexander Soifer is a teacher of problem solving and his book, MATHEMATICS AS PROBLEM SOLVING, is designed to introduce problem solving to the next generation. -- CECIL ROUSSEAU in The American Mathematical Monthly To assemble so much material of the type used in Mathematical Olympiads, which has been tried and tested there, is unusual. To then present it in a form which develops themes, supported by relevant examples and problems for the reader, does the author great credit. -- R. W. WHITWORTH in The Mathematical Gazette Order Book Send Email to: email@example.com

There seems to be a constant debate over whether or not the South, given its continued dominance, is really holding it down (artistically) in rap these days.

If this notion holds any truth, one of the first names that might come to mind is BIG K.R.I.T. Return of 4eva i

As I mentioned in my last post (which was written an unacceptable number of days ago), it's been hot here in Oxford. Temperatures approaching the 90s. Sorry, international readers, but I'll never learn celsius.
Yesterday, I went on a mission to find shorts. I suppose I can't call it a mission if I just went into one (crowded, full of whiny children) store, but I basically lost the will to live after a good 30 minutes. Or at least the will to shop. Anyway, they don't seem to make shorts here that can't be mistaken for underwear, and the few my-size hangers were actually holding not-my-size shorts, so I left empty-handed.
I didn't bring much in the way of summer clothing, simply because I didn't think I'd need it. I suppose I should be enjoying it, though, not complaining that I have nothing to wear.
About a week ago, I fell off my bike. (Transitions, who needs 'em?)
I was a good 3 minutes away from work, and there was probably a sign or two warning me about "skid danger" due to repaving the street with a mixture of tar and little rocks. My office manager later identified the substance as tarmac, a term I previously associated solely with airports. But here's the official (Google) definition:
Some of that broken stone found its way into my knee, chin, and under the delicate skin beneath my fingers and palms. I still wonder if those little black spots on my hands will ever come out, as I sit here, picking at them.
Anyway, I went to the office and asked for a first aid kit, and our office manager decided it'd probably be better to take me to the ER. A good 2 hours later, I left with 3 stitches in my skin and went back to work. After all, we had a client meeting, and I wasn't about to miss out on a free lunch and dinner (especially the dinner, at The Fishes in Hinksey– lamb and mash board was absolutely worth the trouble of chewing with a bandage on my chin).
The stitches came out on Thursday, and now you'd hardly suspect I had more than a bug bite. Once again, hats off to the NHS– people here complain about it, but the level of service I've received here is far better than the insurance I used to pay for back home. And it's not just about cost; the "system" here is still largely impersonal and rushed, but at least your appointments are kept to their scheduled times and you don't need to pull out your credit card before you leave.
John and I decided to do a little experiment, actually, and go to the dentist. I figured I'd already been to the ER that week, and seeing a dentist would round out the healthcare analysis. We were worried, because we heard it was "expensive," and also that it'd be difficult to find a dentist. But we found one and made appointments within 10 minutes or so (to be fair, this part actually took weeks, because we were too lazy to actually pick up the phone after locating our local dentist).
They zapped John's teeth clean and gave him a clean bill of health for about $30, arguably cheaper since he'd need to pay around $200 just for dental coverage in the US. I had to get a broken filling repaired, which still didn't cost too much, and the dentist (an Eastern European middle-aged man with a grumpy tone but occasional sense of humor that won me over) ended up recommending these little "interdental" brushes that I'd never seen. It's basically the equivalent of shoving tiny pipe cleaners between your teeth, and makes my already-annoying (seriously, I get so bored cleaning my teeth) ritual a bit longer and slightly more painful. He also suggested this hippie aloe vera mouthwash from the health food store, so of course I decided to make my own . So far, so good!
We're going punting in a bit, so I'd better wrap this up. No, not American football punting…this kind.
Off to be touristy!

Tech Review: Apps to help follow the Winter Olympics
The nation is in the icy grasp of winter -- the XXII Olympic Winter Games, that is. The Games in Sochi, Russia, run until Feb. 23, and with these apps you can follow the more than 2,800 athletes -- including the three from Long Island -- as they compete in 98 medal events in 15 sports.
NBC Sports Live Extra
(iOS, Android; free)
NBC's official Winter Olympics app will stream more than 1,000 hours of live events covering all 98 medal events. You can also access a video library of earlier events. Looking for something to watch after the Olympics ends? The app streams video of many sporting events NBC covers, including regular season and playoff NHL games, PGA Tour golf and French Open tennis.
Olympic Athletes' Hub
(iOS, Android; free)
With the rise of social media, athletes are instantly posting their triumph and despair online. This app from the International Olympic Committee monitors the verified Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts of Olympic athletes and aggregates their posts, allowing you to follow Olympians from the United States and other countries. The app's "trending" feature offers an at-a-glance update on what's happening at Sochi.
Team USA's Pinsanity
(iOS, Android; free)
One of the joys of being an Olympian, beyond competing, is trading Olympic pins with other athletes. This game developed by the U.S. Olympic Committee gives users a taste of virtual Olympic pin collecting at home. A few caveats: Its performance was spotty on several Android phones we tested it with and didn't work at all on a tablet running Android 4.4. You must have a Facebook account to use the app.
2014 Team USA
Road to Sochi
(iOS, Android; free)
This official app from the U.S. Olympic Committee has extensive stats and fun facts for the 230 U.S. athletes at the Games. Whether you want to know how many gold medals Shaun White has won or what his favorite books are, the app tells you. Users can produce a customized news feed of their favorite athletes' social media posts, so it's easy to follow local Olympians Matt Mortensen (Huntington Station, luge), Aidan Kelly (West Islip, luge) and John Daly (Smithtown, skeleton).
Next big thing?
Samsung is stoking rumors it will unveil its next flagship smartphone -- the Galaxy S5 -- later this month as it revs up its competition with Apple. Without specifically confirming the new phone, the electronics giant sent out media invitations for an "Unpacked 5" event at a trade show in Spain on Feb. 24. The Galaxy S4 was second only to Apple's iPhone in smartphone sales last year.-- Peter King
Heeding the call
At your next business meeting you may want to keep your smartphone in your pocket or purse with the ringer off. A study published in Business Communication Quarterly found that 76 percent of business professionals said checking email during a meeting was unacceptable. And 87 percent said answering a call during a business meeting was rarely or never acceptable.-- Peter King
IBM, Twitter sign deal
Twitter has bought 900 patents and signed a cross-licensing agreement with IBM, making peace with Big Blue and bulking up its intellectual property portfolio as it takes on larger rivals Google and Facebook. The agreement comes after IBM accused Twitter of infringing three of its patents, underscoring how few patents the social media company possessed in relation to more established rivals. -- Reuters?

Description Change this
Located today in the Hipódromo Condesa Neighborhood, the Lido Cinema was the first movie theatre located outside the city centre. Designed by architect Charles S. Lee, its was based on Art Deco style and designed to host approximately 1310 viewers. The architectural trends at the time gave to the building influences of the Californian Colonial and Spanish Revival styles, taking old ancient Spanish and Mudejar elements, where its most important compositional element was a 20 meters tall tower located in the entrance, framed by the marquee. The Lido opened in 1942 and ran three decades of famous reputation. However, in 1978 its decadence started due to an increment in admission prices and to the establishment of newer cinemas with more attractive facilities from commercial chains. Despite an attempt of remodeling and re-opening under the name Bella Epoca Cinema in 1980, the prices and competitions couldn't be stopped and by 1999 the Mexico City Government acquired the estate that was later sold to the Economical Culture Endowment, and with the support of the neighbors that sought the protection of the building as a cultural space, Mexican architect Teodoro González de León was commissioned to remodel the space, today the building stands as the Bella Epoca Cultural Centre.

These are 10 great tweets about Dhoni's Silence act at the Press Conference today. Must read.
Kunal Pradhan (@_kunal_pradhan): Another demonstration of how nothing will ever change in the Indian cricket. #ipl #Dhoni #Srinivasan #bccirot
Eagle Eye (@Eagleeye47): #Dhoni #Tendulkar & the greats of the cricketing fraternity all surprisingly silent, on Spot Fixing & the BCCI ; Strange & Pathetic !
Shashank Sourabh (@shankyn): @bhogleharsha so do u jst write moral stories in ur books or do u hav an opinion abt d farce indian cricket hs become. #dhoni #disappointed
Piyush Kaul (@piyushkaul): Country is headed by MUM Mohan Singh & India Cricket team by MUM Singh #Dhoni 😉
And media was also not let go
Rohit (@rohitsakunia): If the press was so angry on #Dhoni not responding on #spotfixing why didn't they walk out. They should have na
Back to MS though and there were some who also dragged BJP and Mrs. MS Dhoni
gurujoth_kohli (@gurujoth_kohli): #Dhoni MUM on Questions posed by the Media abt IPL.Will the #BJP ask for his resignation?Or stall the Parliament for this #JustAsking??
Gaurav (gauravarora_123): #Dhoni is silent because Sakshi Bhabhi wont allow him to speak #GharGharKiKahaani
Saurabh Gandhi (@gaggycool): When Sakshi said " Kuch toh log kahengay" , it was probably a cue for Dhoni to shut up. #dhoni
And then came some real bad allegations (unwanted considering nothing was proved)
Vikram Sharma (@vikram_sharma09): apart from Azhar, only other Indian cricket captain who has been so hand in glove with establishment & under an ethical cloud is #Dhoni

Building the Right Environment to Support AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning
It is now December 2006 and waves are crashing all around us. I have never seen surf so good. There are different waves coming in now and there are large swells building.
Vista and Office 2007
One of the largest waves that formed in 2006 was the Office 2007 and Windows Vista wave. This wave presents opportunities for developers to create state-of-the-art user interfaces. Applications developed in aero glass look sweet. Importing and exporting Office data will be orders of magnitude simpler with the new XML Document formats now supported by Office 2007.
The technology triumvirate: Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF), Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), present opportunities to develop applications with advanced UI's, advanced communication, and advanced workflow. WPF gives developers the ability to work with designers to create rich user experiences never before possible. WCF takes literally thousands of lines of code out of the process of developing reliable distributed applications, and WWF addresses a common design pattern that has often been overlooked by development tools: workflow.
SharePoint 2007
Another large wave comes in the form of SharePoint 2007. This overhaul to the SharePoint system brings Web Part development into the Visual Studio 2005 world. The last version of SharePoint required developers to use Visual Studio 2003 to build Web Parts and, in general, it was more difficult than necessary to build these applications. This issue of CoDe Magazine features part two of Sahil Malik's great article demonstrating the process for developing Web Parts for SharePoint 2007.
Team System
System integrators and trainers will catch a large wave when companies install and integrate Team System into their development processes. Team systems tend to be both large and complex.
After installing Team System development teams will benefit greatly from a fully integrated development environment. Development teams will benefit from the tools that help manage system development from requirements to deployment. Team System provides a great environment for developing, testing and managing large scale projects and development teams.
Orcas and LINQ
One large wave forming offshore that we'll soon be able to catch is the Orcas and LINQ wave. "Orcas" is the code name for the next version of Visual Studio and LINQ is the acronym for Language Integrated Query. Orcas will enhance the development experience with new tools and language constructs. LINQ will allow you to issue SQL SELECT statements on your local datasets and objects.
As I watch the 7-degree weather outside the window here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, I'm contemplating which waves I want to catch in 2007. Personally I'm a data dude so the LINQ wave probably interests me the most. I'm also a tools developer so SharePoint 2007 seems to satisfy my craving for that type of wave. In the coming year I'll do my best to help you find the best techniques for catching and riding these waves into shore.
Thank You for 5 Years at Code
This is my 30th editorial for CoDe Magazine. The next issue begins my 6th year as Editor-in-Chief of CoDe Magazine. I want to express my thanks to the writers, editors and you the readers of CoDe Magazine. It's an honor to work with and for you all!

New webMathematica site: www.eco-tools.net

- Subject: [mg50345] New webMathematica site: www.eco-tools.net

- Sender: owner-wri-mathgroup at wolfram.com
Greetings, I just wanted to let people know about a new webMathematica website I am developing that makes basic (and ultimately, more advanced) calculation tools for ecology and conservation biology available, free, to a global audience (i.e., in particular, conservation practitioners in developing countries who have limited access to software and training). www.eco-tools.net It just has some basic tools right now (timeseries autocorrelation, ordination, life history matrix calculations, etc.). I am seeking funding to develop it properly. One of the key features of the site is that all code is open source -- each module has a fully-annotated notebook which autosaves as the exact package that performs the calculations. I mention this just in case any of you code wizards are stuck on a rainy Sunday afternoon with nothing to do, and fancy critiquing the coding efforts of an enthusastic ecologist. I'm sure there are mistakes and sub-optimal procedures scattered throughout. You would, literally, be doing the world a favor. Anyway, I hope you approve of the idea of the site, and you should know that any cooments or suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks Gareth Russell Columbia University

You are currently browsing the monthly archive for February 2017.
Yahoo News: The head of Italy's anti-discrimination office resigned on Monday after accusations that government funds meant to promote diversity projects and tackle racism had been earmarked for gay sex clubs masquerading as cultural centers.
Francesco Spano quit just hours after an investigative TV program showed his department had authorized funding of up to 55,000 euros ($58,400) each for at least three such clubs.
The TV show, called The Hyenas, visited the three businesses and found they housed male prostitutes and offered their members so-called "dark rooms" for sexual encounters.
What a pity that they didn't out all the homo pigs involved in these clubs – at least that's what assuming.
And money is so needed to fight racism – but it has to be stolen by homo pigs for their debaucheries. And these "anti-discrimination" bodies usually do everything but fight racism. I guess they have all be colonized by the LGBT pigs who quickly understood they could get their hands on public money to fund their nasty homosexual agenda.
Well, you know something is official if it happens on Facebook. And so here it is: the Bible has been declared hate speech and banned from Facebook – at least temporarily.
Elizabeth Johnston, an Ohio homeschooling mother of 10 who runs the popular conservative blog "The Activist Mommy," told The Christian Post on Tuesday that Facebook suspended her account earlier this month because she wrote about how Leviticus condemns homosexuality as "detestable" and an "abomination."
Johnston said the comment in question was posted over six months ago in a long thread of comments that was in response to another Facebook user who claimed that Christians are hypocrites for condemning homosexuality but being willing to eat shellfish and pork.
The post was removed on Feb. 9 and Johnston's public "The Activist Mommy" Facebook page, which has over 76,000 followers, was frozen for a period of three days. She was alerted that her comment on homosexuality was removed because "it doesn't follow the Facebook Community Standards."
"Someone had commented underneath one of my videos and were commenting under the thread and said something about how Old Testament law prohibits the eating of pork — one of the homosexuals' favorite arguments to make. I responded with just scriptural commentary and that is considered 'hate speech' by Facebook," Johnston explained. "It was just very intellectual and it was just a commentary on what the Bible says. There was no name calling or anything like that."
After her account was unfrozen on Feb. 12, Johnston said that she re-posted her thoughts on the Bible's condemnation of homosexuality only to have Facebook remove the post again and freeze her account for an additional seven days.
The community standards state: "Facebook removes hate speech, which includes content that directly attacks people based on their: race, ethnicity, national origin, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, sex, gender, or gender identity, or serious disabilities or diseases."
Johnston's post only cited Scripture and did not directly attack any person.
The Ohio mother contended that with the way the Facebook algorithm is set up is that all that is needed for her account to be frozen is for liberal trolls and LGBT activists to report her account.

Sherlock Holmes on the brain18 Dec 2006
I often refer to the "Sherlock Holmes" theory of the mind in my classes; in honor of finals week, I thought I would post the relevant passage from A Study in Scarlet:
"You see," he explained, "I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of other things so that he has a difficulty in laying his hands upon it. Now the skilful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic. He will have nothing but the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large assortment, and all in the most perfect order. It is a mistake to think that that little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones."


text: BUSINESS 'Zootopia,' 'Jungle Book,' 'Angry Birds Movie' Help Disney, Sony Russian Venture to Record Revenue 4:57 AM PST 11/16/2016 by Vladimir Kozlov FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Disney 'Zootopia' is this year's highest-grossing release of Disney and Sony's Russian joint venture. The previous record in rubles was set in 2013. WDSSPR, the Russian distribution joint venture of Walt Disney and Sony, has reached a new annual revenue record in rubles, exceeding a previous high in local currency terms set in 2013. As of mid-November, the total gross of movies distributed by WDSSPR in Russia and CIS countries amounted to 12.4 billion rubles, or $189 million, local trade journal Booker's Bulletin reported. The distribution venture's previous record in 2013 had amounted to 11.6 billion rubles, which corresponds to $177 million at the current exchange rate but was substantially more in dollar terms at the time as the ruble has lost nearly half of its value since 2014. WDSSPR has been Russia's biggest distributor for the last five years and is likely to keep that status in 2016 as runner-up Fox is behind it with 8.7 billion rubles as of mid-November. Among the movies contributing most significantly to the company's total box office this year are Disney's Zootopia (2.3 billion rubles), The Jungle Book (1.4 billion rubles), Captain America: Civil War (1.1 billion rubles) and Doctor Strange (991 million rubles), as well as Sony's The Angry Birds Movie (785 million rubles) and Inferno (579 million rubles to date). Separately, Disney notched its best-ever box-office year in Russia in local currency terms before the third quarter was even over. So far, its releases have grossed 9.1 billion rubles, topping the previous record of 8.9 billion rubles for any distributor's gross in Russia in a single year, set by Universal in 2015.

If you've missed the transformation of the oncology therapeutic landscape over the past five years, you've had your head in the sand. While many recent advancements are hugely beneficial, one result of this tidal wave of investment is that some new drugs offer only marginal improvements yet command outrageous price tags. This is a controversial issue and should give everyone in oncology pause.Read More

Do you play music in your store? As it turns out, research shows it does more than provide a little ambiance. The University of Windsor find music increases employees' moods and enhances their perception at work, while the Journal of Music Therapy find music can lower tension. RetailMinded explored how this works in a store setting. Be sure to read their full post.
Productivity studies
Beyond improving your employees' moods and lowering tension at work, research published in the journal Applied Ergonomics shows that people who listen to music while conducting repetitive work tasks are more efficient. In addition, an article published by the Institute of Leadership and Management states that managers can cut the number of sick days by seven million and increase worker productivity just by playing music in the background at work.
Playlist services
Professional playlist makers like Spencer Manio are behind what you hear coming from the speakers at the mall. Manio has worked for retailers including Nordstrom, Converse, Under Armour and BlackBerry via PlayNetwork, an agency that reaches 75 million people per day. Additional music services such as Custom Channels, Mood Mixes and Sound Reef provide background music for a wide range of retail stores. From art galleries to clothing retailers, these providers help reinforce brand identity by creating a specific mood suitable for both customers and employees. And in many cases, it's affordable. Mood Mixes, for example, charges just $15 each month for services.
Sound systems
Before outfitting your retail establishment with a music-playing system, consider the pros and cons of using surround sound versus sound bars. According to The Dig, retail spaces that are larger than 15 by 20 are best suited for surround sound systems. But for smaller spaces, like boutiques, a sound bar is a good option.
The bottom line
Mark Faithfull, writing for Retail Week, states that music played in a retail space reflects the brand message and enhances the customer experience. And if this is done correctly, it results in a higher volume of sales. So, which music is right for retail? Music experts like Vanessa Walmsley of Mood Media say a mix of ambient playlists and recognizable artists is best for drawing in customers and keeping employees engaged.

Remember my Mount Tsuru quilt from the last post? I used Janice's (Better Off Thread) Moda bake shop tutorial called Sunnyside diamond zig-zag. The tutorial is easy to follow. But, hypothetically, if you do not follow the directions correctly (maybe because you did not read ALL of the directions before you started cutting) you get to turn the mistake into a beautiful bonus pillow:
I turned my oops block into this pillow and used some Essex linen in flax for the back.
Want to learn how I quilted this baby??
1. I cut out a petal shape from a piece of paper and traced it onto the pillow top four times (black lines below). Then I stitched over the line following the arrows.
2. Then I quilted inside each of the petals (pink lines below) echoing the first quilting line until I filled the petal.
3. Last I echo quilted outside the black lines until I filled up the rest of the pillow top (blue lines).
I'll address any questions you have about the quilting how to in the comments and please let me know if you try it out!

Ancient history isn't a keen interest of mine, but I'd like to know who invented beer and give them a shout/props. Also like to read "Sweetness and Power: The Place of Sugar in Modern History." It examines how refined cane sugar went from no part of our diet to an almost a third within a short space of time. Finally I'd like to read about the development of coffee in A History of the World in Six Glasses.
Been reading random snippets of Joyce; the good thing about Ulysses is it doesn't have to be read in any particular order since it's equally opaque whether read forward or backward. But the sentences are a stream of precious trout.
Growing up watching television shows like Little House on the Prairie and The Waltons led me to believe that neighbors were present only in cases of emergency, like to help rebuild your barn if it burns down. In real life I learned it was more the opposite - they are omnipresent in times of non-emergency and scarce when you could really use them. I jest! Though I am blessed/cursed with very visible neighbors. 'Tain't no Betty Duffy-type acreage at our house.
A four-day work week it 'twas but it felt longer as is paradoxically typical in the case of 4-day weeks. A single day off, as opposed to a week off, just makes me lazy. Did mow down a few sniping errands, like doing the city taxes and paying the bills and cutting the grass. Sometimes mowing down errands is literal.
So what else? Confession with the good Dominican priest. He came to the parish so inspired and fresh and full of inspiration that I try to stiff-arm cynical thoughts that he'll burn out on the parish. These folks are high maintenance what with the omnipresent Confession lines (Lord, St. Pat's must be the sinning-est church since Corinth) plus many tend to bog down in the typical traditionalist minutiae, like scruples over mantilla-wearing and the proper fulfillment of the Fatima revelations. I confessed the lameness of my motivations given that even now, this Confession, was prompted by the promises of Mercy Sunday. He called my confession a good diagnosis and said that all of our motives are mixed and even if only 5% is for God then we're on the right side.

Give xMOOCs a Chance !
Connectivists are inclined to turn up their noses at xMOOCs. I've done this myself, (Why can't an xMOOC be more like a cMOOC ?), pointing at the instructivist pedagogy that xMOOCs inherit from traditional courses. Now, one way or another, I've participated in several xMOOCs and I've even completed 'Introduction to Philosophy' and 'Quantum Mechanics for Scientists and Engineers. I'm under no illusions about becoming expert in either of these topics but I did learn something worthwhile and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience – rather more than some traditional courses I've known!
So what's there to like about xMOOCs ?
Videoed Lectures – minutely planned and rehearsed in advance, these are but distant cousins of any lecture in any traditional course. View whenever you like or wherever you are. Pause, rewind, fast forward or repeat segments, even speed up the presentation if you think you know it all or slow it down if you don't – what luxury! If you have language difficulties or want to construct your own notes there's probably lecture transcripts available too.
What a contrast with traditional lectures! When I was a student (years before the Internet) a certain mathematics lecturer would enter the lecture room and start writing notes from the top of the left blackboard. When all the boards were full he wiped out everything and started again. He rarely spoke and we spent the entire hour just copying notes that were essential for the examination. Little else was studied and we only followed up by some question spotting shortly before the exam. Of course not all traditional lectures are like that but as vehicles for learning, xMOOC videos seem to be head and shoulders above what many traditional lectures can offer in practice.
Expert Tuition – xMOOC video professors who participate in the forums can progress learning by swiftly clearing up ambiguities, developing points of interest and, by their example, set high standards for communication between students. A large number of participants who are not active in the forums probably benefit too.
Experts with the necessary skills to intervene at the right time or place and in the right way are greatly appreciated in xMOOC forums. Quantum Mechanics may be an extreme example but where understanding rests on theoretical concepts with little intuitive appeal effective learning can become very difficult without someone having expert knowledge of the unfamiliar facts and methods that are the accepted nuts and bolts of the subject. This can also apply in xMOOCs dealing with humanities topics, even when there's greater scope for participants to interact and learn from each other other. I did learn something reading 101 different participant accounts of 'The Meaning of Life' in the Philosophy MOOC but rather more from one or two succinct comments by the professors!
|Catalytic Learning – xMOOCs can motivate and consolidate learning by spilling over into open networks in ways that may be unexpected and serendipitous. xMOOCs influence learning outside themselves or inside other MOOCs. For example, Jenny Mackness in a MOOC on 'Modern and Contemporary American Poetry' is surprised to find "so many connections with my research into online teaching and learning". Karen Carlson's excellent video, 'When MOOCs Collide' illustrates how several 'cross-breeding' MOOCs have influenced her learning while Louise Taylor's open notes on various MOOCs are so detailed they become an education in themselves.
Community – 'Massive' and 'Open' almost guarantees a diversity of MOOC participants with different backgrounds and levels of prior knowledge. Only a small fraction may be active in xMOOC forums at any time but many do provide mutual help and encouragement. Perhaps surprisingly, this can include expert tuition by altruistic participants with no formal connection to the MOOC. Community in an xMOOC may not bear comparison with the cMOOC ideal where knowledge is created and shared in a distributed network but who knows? Perhaps inside every xMOOC there's a cMOOC trying to get out!.
Quizzes, Assignments and Deadlines – Rightly or wrongly, many xMOOC participants place great importance on gaining certificates. 'Passing' a series of multiple choice questions or assignments marked by other learners is hardly a decent measure of competence but it does help to reinforce basic concepts and the challenge can be motivating. I doubt if I would have kept up the pace without the spur of weekly deadlines, particularly in Quantum Mechanics where the assignments involved considerable number crunching work.
Now I may have been very lucky in my choice of xMOOCs and I know that xMOOCs are not all of the same standard but whatever their pedagogical and other failings they evidently benefit large numbers of people across the globe. (Eg 'Studying Learning in the Worldwide Classroom Research into edX's First MOOC', reports that of about 155,000 registrants only about 26,000 were US based.) People without the resources or even the motivation to join a traditional course benefit from xMOOCs in ways that are often overlooked. The mostly silent majority also benefit – the so-called 'lurkers', 'toe-dippers' and 'drop-outs' who, for a miscellany of reasons 'milk the MOOC' but do not qualify for a certificate.
xMOOCs are bound to improve with the technology and with a bit of push and shove may be capable of developing towards more open communities that put students at the center of learning. Some connectivists seem to avoid joining xMOOCs on principle whereas their presence might help shake off some of the baggage that xMOOCs inherit from traditional courses. If you can't beat them, be pragmatic and join them – give xMOOCs a chance!

Right On Gordon! cMOOCs are such a heady learning experience that we tend to forget that xMOOCs are well worth exploring.
My experience in Coursera's "Aboriginal Worldviews and Education" by University of Toronto professor Jean Paul Restoule was similarly positive. It so impressed our College President who also participated that she got a guest lecturer from the course as our keynote speaker this fall.
I'm also finding Adobe Education Exchange's collaborative courses (they refuse to acknowledge them as MOOCs) very well done. When I first enrolled, I was a bit skeptical, wondering if this might just be a high pressure marketing tool for Adobe, but I was pleasantly surprised. Of course it is assumed that Adobe product users are the main learner body, but the courses focus on technique AND pedagogy – especially on how to translate what we learn into learning experiences for our own students. They have closed forums just like other xMOOCs but do encourage open sharing via Twitter and personal or professional blogs.

Tangerine juice plays two roles here: It stops the cooking of the sugar, and its bright perfume brings complexity to the sauce.
- Yield
- Makes about 1 1/2 cups
- Active Time
- 25 min
- Total Time
- 35 min
- 6 tight-skinned tangerines
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Turkish bay leaves or 1 California
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Remove 3 (2- by 1-inch) strips zest from 1 tangerine with a sharp vegetable peeler (preferably Y-shaped), then scrape off any white pith. Juice tangerines. (You will need 1 1/4 cups juice.)
- Bring sugar, water, bay leaves, and zest to a boil in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved, then wash down any sugar crystals from side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water. Boil, without stirring, until sugar is deep amber. Remove from heat, then carefully add tangerine juice (mixture will bubble and steam vigorously) and simmer, stirring, until caramel has dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and a pinch of salt, then remove from heat and cool. Chill, covered, until ready to serve (sauce will thicken slightly). Discard bay leaf and zest.

Rosenstein may need to recuse himself from Russia probe: ABC News
U.S. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has privately acknowledged he may need to recuse himself from matters relating to the Russia probe, given that he could become a potential witness in the investigation, ABC News reported on Friday, citing unnamed sources.
ABC said Rosenstein told Associate Attorney General Rachel Brand she would have authority over the probe if he were to step aside. Rosenstein appointed special counsel Robert Mueller to investigate alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election, and has told lawmakers he would only fire him with good cause.

The Right Glue for the Job
When embarking on any craft project involving sticking two things together choosing the right glue for the job is crucial. One glance at the adhesives aisle in your local craft store and you can see sometimes choosing which glue you should use can be a daunting task. Don't worry, today for I Love to Create I am going to hold your hand through the entire selection process plus throw in a few gluing tips.
Fabric Glue
For those that don't sew a fabric glue like Aleene's Fabric Fusion can be your best friend. Without ever threading a needle you can often times fake a stitch or add an applique like on Customizing Your Kicks with just a dab of glue. One word of warning is to be careful not to get too heavy handed when gluing fabrics together as some things will darken from the glue.
Yup technically it's a glue with a fancy French name. If they sold Collage Pauge Instant Decoupage Medium in Gallon Jugs I'd buy it that way. Unlike most glues that don't show, decoupage can say it loud and proud on your craft project in glossy like I used on my terrarium picture frame, matte or my personal fave glittery!
Temporary Hold
Sometimes as odd as it sounds, you don't want your glue to stick forever. Aleene's Tack It Over and Over is the perfect temporary hold glue for projects like appliques or in my case holding a stencil in place for glass etching.
Fabric Stiffener
Not only does glue adhere things, it also stiffens things. Sometimes you want the stiff without the sticky and that is where Aleene's Fabric Stiffener and Draping Liquid comes in handy. Very handy when making things like say string lamps or doily bowls. Did I mention you can add paint and dye to it to give it color.
All Purpose Glue
No crafty home is complete without a good all purpose go to glue around. Aleene's Original Tacky Glue is one of my favorites. Now that I have a kiddlet using non-toxic glues is important to me. Liquid Fusion Glue is put to use more often than any other glue in jewelry studio. Not just on jewelry I use Liquid Fusion on majority of my craft projects from turning TVs into picture frames to my neighbors trash into a toadstool. Remember when gluing things together like for jewelry lightly sand the surface when you can to give everything tooth.
Acid Free Glue
And you thought gluing paper was the easiest of all gluing tasks, wrong. When embarking on a paper crafting journey like perhaps scrapbooking or anything involving photographs you want to be sure and opt for an acid free glue like Aleene's Acid Free Tacky Glue.
Spray Glue
I must admit I have only recently discovered spray glue and all I can say is Aleene's Tacky Spray, where have you been all my life. Sometimes you have a lot of surface to glue like when attaching a piece of painted black velvet to a canvas and a spray glue can be a life saver.
This is just the tip of the adhesive iceberg. There are metal glues, industrial glues foam glues and more. Just remember there is always a specific type of glue for each project.

Aussie men and women with something to prove in Fiji
Australia's men's sevens are looking to continue a winning run when the Oceania Sevens kicks off on Friday.
The Aussies have won three tournaments in a row, taking the Cup final at the Oktoberfest 7s, the Central Coast Sevens and last weekend's San Jose Sevens.
Matt Hood was part of the Munich success and is in Fiji with the men this week, looking to keep that winning feeling going.
"It's just that environment that you come back to and that's being bred within the team, it is exactly contagious,"he said.
"Hopefully we can build upon a bit more. but it's a good feeling.
"The boys are coming together well.
"I think we're going to show some people something from that second side they mightn't expect."
With the Oceania tournament back-to-back with San Jose, there are eight uncapped players in Australia's men's side but Hood said they didn't mind being under the radar.
"We've definitely got a bit of an underdog tag as that sort of development side, coming up against the national sides from Fiji and New Zealand," he said.
"We're a young squad but we're hungry and we're ready to go.
"Blokes have a point to prove as individuals, as well as as a team."
Australia has gotten the better of host nation Fiji in its recent tournaments and stand-in coach Jarred Hodges said they would need to be ready to wear a target on their backs.
"We know Fiji's world class, they're Olympic champions for a reason.
"We're under no illusion that every time you beat FIji they're going to lift the next time, so it's getting harder and harder.
"We're always excited about playing the best and we like to challenge ourselves against the best and Fiji's definitely one of those teams."
Where a young Aussie men's side is looking to surprise its opponents, the shock was inside the playing squad for the women, with Lauren Brown still reeling from her inclusion in the team.
Brown, who skippered Griffith University in the Uni7s, was took completely aback when Australia coach Tim Walsh called her with the news last week.
"He called me on Saturday morning and it was the best Saturday morning ever, what a call," she said.
"I was not expecting that, so (it was) a quick couple of days' turnaround and here I am."
Her jubilation was quickly grounded with a brutal training session on day one in Suva.
"It was a bit of a reality check this morning, straight into it, a hard session, so can't wait to rip in on the weekend."
The Oceania Sevens kicks off on Friday November 10 in Suva, LIVE streamed across Oceania Rugby's digital channels.

At The Village Gate
01. The Opening ( 6:10 )
02. After Later ( 5:45 )
03. Etardecendo En Saudade ( 7:50 )
04. Can You Follow ( Dance On A Green Hill ) (9:20 )
05. Beyond These Chilling Winds ( 7:50 )
Recorded live at the Village Gate, New York City,
January 21, 22, 23 1971
- Larry Coryell / guitar, vocals
- Mervin Bronson / bass
- Harry Wilkinson / drums
- Julie Coryell / vocals
Although remembered, as a jazz guitarist Larry Coryell is probably the rockiest of them all, since he started and played in rock band from 59 onwards, until by the mid-60's, he was seen in jazz circles. A fan of Hendrix, Cream and more, LC's first album were definitely swaying from jazz to rock, with ex- Coltrane and future Mahavishnu members helping out on his first two real solo albums (Lady Coryell and Spaces), but this album is most definitely in the Hendrix realm, probably very close to what Jimi would've done, had he been given the time to explore jazz. In some ways, this album is John McLaughlin's equivalent of Devotion, with wild rock guitars, hard rocking rythms, but there aren't Larry Young (or anyone else's) organ parts. As usual with many Corryell albums, you'd have a hard time looking at the sober artwork and guess the nature of the music on the disc, but you'll know easily it was recorded live in NY's Village Gate club and released on the standard jazz label Vanguard.
This is mostly a guitar power trio set up like Hendrix's Experience or Cream, with LC singing, and in one track, helped out by his wife Julie. The Opening track (that's its name, look it up ;-) is really a slow Hendrix blues, in the line of Hear That Train Coming, where Bronson's pedestrian bass and Wilkinson's drums take on Cox and Mitchell twists. After Later takes on a much quicker and jazzier tone and pace, but the Hendrix overtones remain. The Chick Corea track Saudade is completely unrecognisable (even the riff), even in the light of the early 70's, but LC shines with delays and echoes and torrid improvs flowing like bubbling lava.
Proof that LC had Cream in mind, the Can You Follow is a Jack Bruce cover, starting on a drum solo that could've easily fitted Ginger's play, but is probably the jazzier track on this album yet. Bronson's role is particularly interesting on this track (courtesy of Bruce himself), but LC's style early on veers McLaughlin-esque without verging on the vertiginous like McL. Later on in the track, LC shows a full range or tricks, treats, twists and licks that should get most guitarists gaping their mouths in awe. The closing Beyond These Chilling Winds is rather different, because penned by Larry and his better half and sung together, sounding even a bit folky, but once the first verses and chorus gone, the song embarks on a wild flurry of improvs taking us directly to paradise without much detours.
The album ends in a wild but direct end, suggesting there was much more to come that night and hopefully one day, this album will get a complete concert treatment, by adding the rest of the concert as a bonus tracks. One could easily file this album between Hendrix and Guru Guru's UFO album on his shelves. Essential to understand LC's origins and where he was heading at the time.

SPOTLIGHT: Micellar Magic Part 3...
18 comments:
I'm loving this series Kat! I'm currently using the Garnier pink one, but I too have oily/normal skin, so I might try the green one. Glad to hear the Simple one is a bit average. So many people on the net rave about it.ReplyDeleteReplies
So glad you're enjoying the reviews Mel - it's been a most interesting exercise for me too, and of course it's all about one's personal experience and preferences, but I guess that's why there's so many to choose from lol ♥Delete
I'm loving reading about all the different ones, too, it's so helpful! I was using the Garnier, but was sent the BioDerma and it's the best, absolutely love it. Can't wait to hear your thoughts!ReplyDeleteReplies
Great news Di - I'm really enjoying it too, I rarely used to read what's in the stuff I buy, but after this, I'm a lot more careful. Mmm yes the Bioderma - well, let's just say that I have a habit of keeping the best till last wink wink... xxxDelete
This series is so interesting! I previously didn't know there was so much difference between all the micellar waters on the market, having only tried two different ones myself.ReplyDeleteReplies
Isn't it just Ingrid - I was amazed when I realised just how many were out there and they sure do vary. I wonder if it will become like champagne, and there'll be some regulations as to what determines whether something is a "real" micellar water? ♥Delete
I haven't tried any of the micellar waters and have wondered how they would do. I have older dry skin.ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi there M&D - I think all of them are very gentle on the skin, and a lot less harsh than toners. The ones that have "sensitive" on the label are probably best for us older gals xxxDelete
I feel like most micellar/toners have alcohol as a major ingredient :( it's so upsetting. When I worked at shiseido many many years ago, they sold me on their "softener" which doesn't contain any alcohol. However, having said that I have heard a lot of great things about garnier's micellar!ReplyDelete
Lily not LouiseReplies
Hi Lily my dear, well from what I've seen so far most of them don't contain alcohol, which is great news hey. The pink Garnier one is definitely minus that nasty drying ingredient ♥♥♥Delete
Great Review Kats! I didn't know that Garnier had different kinds out now! But I'm glad you did the leg work for me. Wont be picking up this one. I too favor the Simple over the Garnier. Personal preference. Cant wait to read your final post next week and see the winner. Tal xoReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you Tal - I too find out a lot of the information I need from my blogging pals (you included!), it's one of reasons I joined the community. With so much stuff in the market, it sure helps a lot before making purchase decisions hey x♥xDelete
Too bad about the Garnier one.. I'll have to steer clear of that one too as I'm oily but get dehydrated easily. Can't wait to find out who is the winner in this series. xoReplyDeleteReplies
Well now Amy, it could just be that it's a bit drying because I use a cleanser first. Some gals use micellar water alone, but I wear SO much makeup, I prefer to give my face a thorough wash with traditional cleansers first ♥♥♥Delete
Loving this series Kat! Pity about the Garnier one. I'm not a fan to be honest. I love Simple products so after all the talk of their micellar water I have to get it. This one is next on this list to try x Louise ~ www.beyoutyfulyou.comReplyDeleteReplies
When you do I'd love to know what you think Louise - everyone's skin varies so much, but it always fascinates me what makes a gal choose one brand over another xxxDelete
I'm not keen on Simple products in general. They might be good for teens or those with sensitivities, but they don't remove the industrial stuff I pile on my face. I'm curious about the Bioderma, will it change my mind about micellar water?ReplyDelete
I've not been a fan of the Simple range - not powerful enough for my heavy duty slap either! I reckon the Bioderma might give you a second thought if you use it alone to clean your face - that's where it shines. I'm content with the Garnier ♥ReplyDelete

Full Sail had such a genius idea they're probably still wondering why they were the first to come up with it. "Let's make a couple beers, at a much lower alcohol level, put them in cute chubby bottles, and sell them real cheap."
Honest to god, I thought session was it's own brewery for the longest time. Anyways, the lager is the most popular of these sessions. Here's why: it's cheap, it tastes pretty good, it's better than Budweiser. The only downside is the bottle is about 11.2 ounces instead of 12. Pick it up if you're looking for an easy drinker.
3 out of 4 stars.

Remove Need2Find.net virus (Free Instructions)
Need to find something online? Learn why Need2Find.net search results cannot be trusted
Questions about Need2Find.net virus
Need2Find.net virus is a close relative to Myallsearch, a well-known parasite that pretends to be a beneficial search tool. This computer pest likes to hijack inattentive users' computers and make changes in their browsers' settings. It silently alters values added to home page, new tab and default search settings by adding Need2Find.net instead of previous values. As a result, this URL loads each time user wants to search for something online or opens a new tab in the infected web browser. The indicated URL serves web search engine, which does not look harmful at any point when you first look at it. At first, it seems that there is nothing wrong with Need2Find.net search, however, it doesn't take long to realize that this search engine acts suspicious. It is not itself malicious, however, links that it serves within the search results can be untrustworthy. Be aware that search engine presented by that URL is meant to generate revenue for its developers, and it does that by inserting sponsored third-party links as ads into the results delivered for the user.
We urge you to be suspicious about those links because it does not seem that developer if this search engine really cares where these presented links lead to. Unfortunately, they can throw you onto dangerous websites as well as to safe ones, but you can never know whether the Internet site is reliable or not if your computer is not protected with a proper security software. If you do not have a program that blocks malicious websites, it can be dangerous to wander through websites that Need2Find.net search results open paths to. We advise you to quit sites offering you "easy" money or urging you to install of update software. Besides, say no to sites that pressingly demand your personal information. Such sites can pose a threat to your computer system, and it is not recommended to browse through them. If you do not want to end up on such sites, better remove Need2Find.net redirect virus before it is too late. For that, you can use instructions that we have prepared or just delete it with the help of Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego software.
How did aforementioned browser hijacker enter my PC system?
People think that it is extremely easy to install computer software, and that even inexperienced computer users can do it without the hassle. That is not true – it is not enough to click the "Next" button several times and rely on suggested installation settings in order to ensure proper installation. If you choose to install computer programs this way, then chances to be infected with spyware or malware of unknown origin are high. Unwanted programs more than frequently travel alongside freeware and shareware, and users can unwillingly install them if they tend to choose the Default or the Standard installation mode. These modes include the permit to install all "recommended" software, so if the user does not want to install suspicious software on the system without even realizing it, he or she needs to choose Custom or Advanced mode. These modes expand a list of bundled software, which can be rejected with a few mouse clicks.

I usually try to post something somewhat web industry related for my Random Friday Post, but this is just too cool to pass up.
This is for anyone that has ever dreamed of flying and by that I mean soaring high above the earth like a jet. Score one for Fusionman, Yves Rossy. Absolutely amazing!
Although I have no idea what the narrator is saying, I love the epic superhero music in the background.

BMW Z2 Roadster Under Consideration, on FWD Platform

Brands like Maserati and Jaguars, luxury brands with limited lineup have higher chance of failing and it's true; look at their history vs BMW.
I don't give a crap about Audi. That's a brand that started in the 90s.
But I respect and like Mercedes and they have FWD, A and B class.
As long as they still make pure-sex fun RWF roadsters, I guess which would be renamed Z3, it's cool.
We won't know for sure, but currently, BMW's plans with roadsters according to Scott26:
Z1: compact FWD, expand buyers and share cost with Mini. Smart business.(?) ~160inches length
Z3: this is the new (unconfirmed) name for the previously rumored Z2. It will be a soft-top. Market competitor to Mercedes SLK and Audi TT. ~165inches.
Z5: up-marketed/successor to current Z4. It will have hardtop and it will be more of a gran turismo than a pure roadster/sportscar (that's the current reputation of the Z4)
I'm not sure who this car would compete against.. I guess the SL? But I doubt it will be as big or as expensive as the SL
Get into serious financial trouble? What in god's name are you talking about? BMW just had record sales this year, and it was certainly not due to the sales of a fwd car. I can't believe how people are able to conceive that BMW is doomed if they don't release a fwd car. And Audi was a brand that "started in the 90s"? I'm not even sure if you're trolling or if you're being serious here.
Objectively speaking, I think it's fair to say that BMW is focused (read: obsessed) on staying on top of the luxury vehicle sales market (ie in front of audi, mercedes-benz isn't worth being brought into the discussion at the moment, sales wise). I love BMW, they still make great cars, so does Audi and Mercedes who is stepping up its game as of lately. They're a business, they need to sell cars, I understand that. Hopefully they can retain segments that still appeal to the enthusiasts while they whore out other parts of the brand for sales, you know the cars who got people into the brand because of the driving experience. FWD Z1 that's cheaper and more accessible to people who just "want to own a BMW"? Fine. But give us a light-weight RWD Z3 to go along with it and don't try to sell us your silly claims that you've found a way to make a FWD behave like RWD. FWD cars have come a long way, but a RWD car is still a RWD car.

Dell became a strategic investor in Graphcore in 2016 (see Dell revealed as Graphcore backer ) and the two companies now have a Dell-Graphcore IPU appliance for data centers.
Toon, speaking at a Dell AI and Analyst event in Chicago, discussed how Graphcore is working with Dell to make use of their product integration and sales channels.
Graphcore refers to its processor as an IPU – for intelligent processing unit – and Toon reported that two 'GC2' IPUs, dubbed Colossus, are included on each 'C2' PCIe card.
"Dell was one of the first to receive hardware and software and we have been working closely with their technical teams to build out a full IPU-based product range from Dell," said Toon in an article on the Graphcore website.
The two companies now have the Dell-Graphcore IPU appliance that contains eight PCIe cards and 16 GC2 Colossus processors. The unit is capable of more than 2 petaflops of machine intelligence compute, spread across over 100,000 independent parallel programs, working on the machine intelligence model held inside the IPUs, and with memory bandwidth of nearly 1 petabyte/s. The unit comes with Graphcore's Poplar software stack.
Toon said Graphcore has sold out its first batch of production silicon and C2 boards.

The definitive and sumptuous biography of the one of the world's most collectible illustrators contains a richly detailed account of his life along with beautifully enchanting pictures
Examining the work of the illustrator Arthur Rackham, this monograph traces his achievements throughout his illustrious career. Rackham's illustrations for such works as Alice in Wonderland, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, and Rip Van Winkle have attained the classic status of the writings themselves—and indeed, in some cases, they have become synonymous with them. His works were also included in numerous exhibitions in his lifetime, including one at the Louvre in Paris in 1914. Rackham himself, however, has previously remained a shadowy figure. As well as featuring exquisite illustrations and sketches, extracts from Rackham's correspondence and insightful commentary shed new light on this much-collected illustrator.
