Banks Report Fraud Spurred By TJX BreachBy Matt Hines Print
The Massachusetts Bankers Association reports that regional companies are already experiencing fraud based on the massive data reach reported by retail chain TJX.
BOSTONBanking industry officials in Massachusetts are reporting that a string of local companies have already observed fraudulent activity related to the massive data breach reported by retail chain TJX Companies on Jan. 17.
Unlike many other highly publicized data losses reported by organizations such as the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, which have not yet been traced to any criminal activity, the information stolen from TJX during two specific incidents in 2003 and 2006 has already been put to use by fraudsters, according to the MBA (Massachusetts Bankers Association).
The MBA reported on Jan. 24 that several banks in the state, which is also home to the TJX corporate headquarters in Framingham, have reported incidents of fraud specifically related to the information that was lifted from the retailers' IT systems by unidentified outsiders.
The banking industry group said that it has received reports of fraud carried out on debit and credit card accounts exposed in the data heist in locations including Florida, Georgia, and Louisiana in the United States, and Hong Kong and Sweden overseas. The widespread nature of the criminal activity could indicate that the data has already been passed from the hackers who stole it to people around the globe intent on using it to carry out fraud, a common scenario for the use of stolen personal information.
Several banks doing business in Massachusetts have already reissued credit and debit cards to customers, including Fitchburg Savings Bank, which reported that more than 1,300 of its customers may have been exposed by the TJX incident. Bank of America, the country's largest retail bank, based in Charlotte, N.C., also confirmed that it is reissuing cards to account holders, although it did not indicate how many of its customers had been affected.

Knowledge to Grow – The Ruby Reds of Winter
I am a big fan of shrubs with red berries for brightening the winter landscape. They also provide a food source for wildlife and come in quite handy for using in holiday décor.
One of my favorites is Winterberry (Ilex verticillata). It is a native, deciduous shrub that is related to the evergreen hollies but is much hardier. Reaching heights of 6 to 8 feet, its bright, shiny red berries are easily spotted alongside roadways. It prefers to grow in moist, acidic soil, a sunny or partially shaded area and is hardy in zones 4-9.
Like hollies, the sexes are on separate plants. The berries are produced on the female plant and the male plant (no berries) is used only for pollination purposes. The birds love to feast on these berries so you need to be quick about gathering cuttings if you want some for your holiday décor.
Tolerating many soil types and it's easy to grow is the Red Chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia). These berries are quite tart and therefore not as palatable for the birds and will last for most of the winter. It does make a good jam though for us humans. This bush has a mature height of 6 to 10 feet, width of 3 to 5 feet and is hardy in zones 4-9. Plant this bush in sun to partial shade and in wet or dry, acidic soil. The foliage will turn a gorgeous red/purple in the fall.
The American Highbush Cranberry sports flat clusters of white flowers in the spring and the berries appear in late summer. This bush can be grown in average to wet soil, in sun or partial shade and is hardy in zones 2-7. A deciduous shrub that will grow 8 to 12 feet tall and just as wide, it will turn a red/purple color in the fall. The berries are not only for the birds as they also make a fine jam or jelly.
Cranberry Cotoneaster has a low arching to mounding habit, small, glossy leaves, pink flower buds in the spring red fruit in the fall. It will tolerate poor soil, drought and soil pHs. The branches may root as they touch the ground. This shrub does like to be planted in full sun and is very easy to grow. Cotoneasters come in varying heights and widths and are hardy to zone 5.
The fruit of many berried trees and shrubs are important sources of food for robins, cedar waxwings, juncos, chickadees and many other birds. Keep these small feathered friends in mind when choosing woody ornamentals for the home landscape in the spring.

The growing need for Kubernetes Configuration Management
It's been over a year since my last blog post, and since then I've been working on Kubernetes almost exclusively for $employer. During that time, I've noticed a growing need for something that many people in the DevOps/SRE/Sysadmin world take for granted. I wanted to come out of my blog post hiatus to discuss that need, and try and create a call to arms around this particular problem.
The Problem
Configuration Management
Back in the "old days" - way before I even got started in this game, a bunch of sysadmins decided that manually configuring their hosts was silly. Sysadmins at the time would configure their fleet of machines, whether it be large or small, using either a set of custom and hand crafted processes and runbooks, or maybe if they were very talented, a set of perl/bash or PHP scripts which would take weeks to figure out for anyone new to the org.
People got pretty tired of this, and a new suite of tools was born - configuration management. From CFEngine, to Puppet, to Chef, to Ansible, these tools came along and revolutionized our industry.
The driving forces behind this tooling was the need to know that machines looked the way you want them to, and also be able to describe that state with code. The Infrastructure as Code movement started with configuration management, and has evolved even further since then, to bring us tools like Terraform, Habitat and Vagrant.
What about Kubernetes?
So how does configuration management fit in with Kubernetes? The first thing you might be thinking is that deploying things to Kubernetes already solves the two problems above. Kubernetes is a declarative system, and you can simply define a deployment with a yaml config and Kubernetes takes care of the rest. You have the "code" there (although yaml is a poor imitation of code!) and then Kubernetes takes care of the rest. It will manage your process, ensure it converges and looks the way it should, and continue from there.
So what's the problem?
The Kubernetes Abstraction Layer
When you think about what Kubernetes does for an organization, it's worth thinking about what Kubernetes does for an engineering organization.
Before Kubernetes, the management layer generally existed above the Operating System. You would generally operate with individual machines when managing applications, and linking them together involved putting services on top of other operating systems which would allow to link those applications together. You probably automated this process with configuration management, but ultimately the operators worked at the operating system layer.
With Kubernetes hitting the marketplace, that abstraction layer has changed. To deploy an application, operators no longer need to install software on the OS. Kubernetes takes care of all that for you.
So scaling applications at the machine layer was managed by configuration management and automated. You had many machines, and you needed to make sure they all looked the same. However, with Kubernetes coming along, how do you do the same there?
Kubernetes Components
So now we get to the meat of the problem. At $employer, we run multiple Kubernetes clusters across various "tiers" of infrastructure. Our Development environment currently has 3 clusters, for example.
Generally, we manage the installation of the components for the Kubernetes cluster (the kubelet, api server, controller manager, kube-proxy, scheduler) etc with Puppet. All of these components live at the operating system layer, so using a configuration management tool for the installation makes perfect sense.
But there are components of a Kubernetes cluster that need to be the same across all the clusters that are being managed. Some examples:
- Ingress Controllers. All clusters generally need an ingress controller of some kind, and you generally want it be the same across all your clusters so there are no surprises.
- Monitoring. Installing prometheus usually makes sense, and monitoring at the hardware layer is taken care of by DaemonSets. However, how do you make sure the prometheus config works the same across all clusters? Prometheus installations are designed to be small and modular, so you want to repeat this process over and over again.
- Kubernetes Dashboard. Generally there will be some users who want to see a picture, and the dashboard helps with that.
These are just some examples, but there are more. So, how do you do this?
We adopted Helm charts at $employer for a few reasons:
- The helm charts for bigger projects are generally well maintained, and have sane defaults out of the box.
- Helm allows you to do reasonable upgrades of things using helm releases.
- Helm's templating system allows you to manipulate configuration values for cluster level naming etc.
The problem is that syncing helm releases across clusters isn't really very easy. Therein lies the problem: how do I sync resources across Kubernetes cluster. Specifically, how do I sync helm releases across clusters? I want the same configuration but some slight changes in Helm values.
I believe this problem is unsolved. Here's a few of the things I've tried.
The (unsatisfactory) solutions
Because my mind initially goes towards Puppet as configuration management, my first attempted solution used Puppet alongside Helm. I found the Puppetlabs Helm Module and got to work. I even refactored it and sent some pull requests to improve its functionality.
Unfortunately, I ran across a few issues, and these mainly related to Puppet's lack of awareness of concepts higher than the OS, Puppet's less than ideal management of staged upgrades, as well as some missing features in the module:
- Declaring helmcharts as Puppet defined types means they get initialized on all masters. This can cause issues and race conditions. The way Puppet determines if it should install a helm chart is by running a
helm lson the machine its operating on and finding the release. This isn't ideal, because if a master gets out of sync with the cluster, you come across problems.
- The module itself has different defined types for helm chart installations and upgrades. You can't just change the helm module version, or different values for the
values.yaml. This requires custom workflows for helm upgrades and makes it really difficult to manage across multiple installations.
- Sometimes when updating a helm release, you might want to do certain actions before updating the release, like switch a load balancer config. You can't do this with Puppet, it's a manual process and requires some knowledge of multi-stage deployments. Puppet isn't great at this, so there has to be something else involved.
This is originally when my thoughts around this issue began to form. After coming to the conclusion that Puppet wouldn't quite cut it, I began to look at alternatives..
My initial thought was to use ansible. Ansible has a native helm module and is (by their own admission) designed for multi-stage deployments from the get-go. Great!
Unfortunately, the reality was quite different.
- The module has at least two different issues open stating that the module is broken, and not ready: here and here. There is even a comment stating a user switch to the k8s_raw ansible module.
- Setting up and installing pyhelm, the module's dependency, caused us a lot of issues on OS X. We had to run it in a docker container
- The ansible module relies on you configuring manual access to Tiller (helm's orchestrator inside the k8s cluster) manually, which is not easy to do.
Once it was realised that the ansible helm module isn't really ready for prime time, we reluctantly let Ansible go as an option. I'm hoping for this option to potentially improve in future, as I think personally this is the best approach
Terraform, by Hashicorp, was also considered as a potential option. It epitomizes the ideals of Infrastructure as Code by being both idempotent, as well as declarative. It interacts directly with the APIs of major cloud providers, and has a relatively short ramp-up/learning curve. Hashicorp also provides a well-written provider specifically for Kubernetes as well as a community written Helm provider and I was keen to give it a try. Unfortunately, we encountered issues that echoed the problems faced with Puppet:
- Terraform simply defines an endstate, and makes it so, similar to Puppet but at a different level. The multi stage deployments (ie do X, then do Y) aren't really supported in Terraform which causes us problems when switching config.
- We have several clusters in AWS, but some outside AWS. Having to store state for non AWS resources in an S3 bucket or such like was annoying. Obviously it's possible to store state elsewhere, but it's not a simple process.
- By default, Terraform destroys and recreates resources you change. You can modify this behaviour using lifecycle but it's mentality is very different than the Kubernetes/Helm concepts.
I was very excited by Ksonnet at one point. Ksonnet is a Heptio project that is designed to streamline deployments to Kubernetes. It has a bunch of really useful concepts, such as environments which allow you to tailor components to a unique cluster. This would have been perfect to run from a CI pipeline, unfortunately the issues were:
- Doesn't support helm (yet). This means anything you install, you need to take all of the helm configuration that is figured out for you and write it again. A lot of overhead
- Has a steep learning curve. Jsonnet (which ksonnet uses under the hood) is a language itself, which takes some learning and isn't well documented.
- Ksonnet's multi cluster support still hasn't really been figured out, so you need to manage the credentials manually and switch between them across clusters.
Other Contenders
There were a few other concepts which looked ideal, but we didn't try as they were missing key components.
kubed can sync configmaps across namespaces and even clusters. If only it could do the same with other resources, it would have been perfect!
helmfile allows you to create a list of helm charts to install, but at the time of looking at it, it didn't really support templating for cluster differences, so it wasn't considered. It now seems to support that, so maybe it's time to reconsider it.
Ansible k8s_raw
We briefly considered rewriting all the helm charts into standard ansible k8s_raw tasks, and putting the templating into the ansible variables. The amount of work to do that isn't trivial, but we may have to go down that route.
Wrap up
So, as you can see here, this problem isn't solved. In summary, the requirements seem to be a tool that is:
- Aware of multiple Kubernetes Clusters
- Supports templating
- Can perform operations in stages
- Understands helm charts and releases
- Is declarative
Unfortunately, I don't believe this tool exists right now, so the search continues!

"Everyone in the world needs to know about this. This can change the world," a 12th grade student named Mohammad told his social studies teacher at the time, Deb Fowler.
Mohammad shared these thoughts after Fowler's LGBTQ-inclusive history lesson during the 2014-2015 school year, but she learned later that the class continued to shape his perspective on the LGBTQ community. She said a couple years after he went to college, she caught up with Mohammad and he shared a story with her. He told her that he had two close male friends and that one of the men came out as gay.
"The third young man completely disassociated from the friend who came out as gay," Fowler said. "Mohammad said to me that because of what he had learned in our class, he could understand his friend better and that they became even closer. That is the point of this. It's to create better connections between friends and safer schools and communities."
History teachers, advocates, and academics agree that very few students are exposed to historical events about LGBTQ people and the struggle for LGBTQ rights beyond Harvey Milk, one of the first openly gay elected officials in the country, and the Stonewall riots. Nicholas Ferroni, a 10th grade social studies teacher at Union High School in Union, New Jersey, said he sees evidence of this in his classes all the time.
"I had a student literally say to me, 'I thought gay people just showed up in the '70s.' Because our history books kind of dictate that," Ferroni said.
But teachers, state governments, and nonprofits are trying to expand that knowledge. Teachers want to expand their history lessons to earlier periods in U.S. history, sometimes as early as when European settlers first arrived and brought their very specific ideas about gender roles with them, and ensure that English, art, and music classes acknowledge the accomplishments of LGBTQ people.
When students in the LGBTQ community learn about their history, they feel more included and accepted at their school and the world at large. But straight students also benefit by learning about the accomplishments and struggles of the LGBTQ community and often become better allies as a result.
Some of these lesser known figures include Baron Von Steuben, a gay man who served in the Prussian army and left Europe after he was dogged with accusations about his relationships with men. He played a pivotal role in the American revolution by teaching soldiers how to fight, such as how to attack in formation and use bayonets. An evangelist known as Publick Universal Friend, once known as Jemima Wilkinson, claimed to be a prophet. After becoming ill with Typhoid in 1775 and recovering, the person said they were neither male or female and refused to go by their birth name or use he or she pronouns. And of course, there are famous historical figures such as Eleanor Roosevelt and George Washington, whose sexualities are often surrounded with speculation.
How teachers and LGBTQ education advocates are paving the way for an inclusive history
One major step forward for LGBTQ history has been California's FAIR Education Act, which requires teacher to include the political, social, and economic contributions of LGBTQ people and people with disabilities into social studies curricula in the state's public schools. The bill passed in 2011, but the California State Board of Education only voted to implement the law and adopt a framework that would be inclusive last year. It was implemented this year. That slow and frustrating pace is partly responsible for inspiring Deb Fowler and Miriam Morgenstern to leave their teaching jobs and start their nonprofit organization, History UnErased, to give teachers the resources and professional development to teach an LGBTQ-inclusive class.
"Looking at what is happening in California in response to the FAIR Education Act, we knew that we had to extricate ourselves from the glacial pace of bureaucracy and put ourselves in a position to allow for a real grassroots movement to do this work," Fowler said. "… We were in contact with many educators from across the country, who want to do this but did not have access to the resources or the training."
Their organization provides "academic inquiry units" that include interactive games and independent project ideas. One of their units includes access points for LGBTQ-inclusive history such as background information, primary sources to use, and suggested topics to explore further. The group focuses on education from kindergarten all the way to community college. The founders say that community colleges are particularly hungry for this content. But beyond the actual historical content and ideas for projects, teachers need to know how to present that information and start discussions, Morgenstern said.
"Even when teachers know something, they don't always know how to present it to their students, because this is a complicated topic," she said. "I think teachers and sometimes communities are concerned about the right way to introduce this. For us, good pedagogy is as important as the content."
History UnErased suggests teachers present an inquiry, facilitate students' exploration of the topic, challenge students by looking at students' assumptions, and ask questions that require them to support their ideas with evidence and research.
It doesn't serve teachers to put LGBTQ rights in a silo, either, scholars and teachers say. Michael Bronski, professor of practice in media and activism at Harvard University, made sure his 2011 book, A Queer History of the United States, addressed the ways in which the institution of slavery, colonialism, and the beginnings of what was considered American culture and the idea of the all-American man and woman affected LGBTQ history.
"What are the paradigms of how we think about oppression and how do they function for better or for worse in American society? Clearly slavery had the most profound effect on our culture in terms of how we think about groups and assimilation and access and citizenship," Bronski said. "Everything is connected somehow, and the intriguing and important and, I think, vital task is to find out how those connections work and why those connections matter."
Bronski added that it's about more than simply pointing out that figures such as Wilkinson and Charlotte Cushman, a famous 19th century actor whose relationships with women were not a secret, existed and accomplished things. He also wants to point out how the person's being queer or trans affected their lives and sometimes allowed them to do things other people couldn't. Bronski gave the example of wealthy women who did social work and participated in many same-sex relationships.
"The point for me is not that they may have been lesbians, and I mean they were, but the point for me is what about that relationship allowed them to do this good work," he said. "If in fact, lesbians were not married to men who expected them to stay at home and cook for them, they could actually go out into the world and do things."
Ferroni said he often has to remind straight students that LGBTQ history is relevant to everyone and that resistance to these stories reflects the fact that dominant social groups control the people and stories about which students are accustomed to learning.
"I used to joke with my students, but in a very serious way, that I teach white history to minority students and I teach male history to girls and I teach straight history to LGBTQ kids," Ferroni said. "Because those are the people who decide what goes into most school textbooks. And I always believed and I believe it more now that we indirectly teach sexism, racism, and discrimination because we give the impression that one group did everything and that the other groups were basically side notes and contributed very little."
Ferroni said he looks to organizations such as the Gay Straight Lesbian Education Network and Gay Straight Alliance for resources on LGBTQ history, as well as Bronski's book. Ferroni said his students have been appreciative of his inclusion of LGBTQ history.
"I have students who come out to me every year and students who thank me every year [thanks to LGBTQ-inclusive lessons]," Ferroni said. "I have adults who thank me because they wish their teachers would have been more outspoken in the classroom."
The challenges to teaching LGBTQ history
Parents are still very sensitive to the idea of bringing LGBTQ subjects into the classroom. In 2015, a North Carolina elementary teacher, Omar Currie, resigned after parents protested his decision to read children a fairy tale about a prince who falls in love with another prince. Last year, parents and conservative media outlets expressed their ire after Washington state released learning standards for health and physical education, which included gender expression and identity. Conservatives have even railed against pro-LGBTQ messages outside of the classroom. In Winchester, Tennessee, parents and community members protested a high school's new Gay Straight Alliance, a student organization that encourages LGBTQ students and straight, cisgender allies to improve school climates for LGBTQ people.
Fowler and Morgenstern said they haven't received many complaints from parents, and which they say has something to do with the methods they advocate for. They make sure everything teachers present is well-documented and that students are challenged but not dictated to.
"What we do is ground our work in primary sources and because of that we think we avoid some of that controversy or what people determine is controversial," Morgenstern said. "We're not telling students what to think. We're allowing them to look at history, to look at events, and then make decisions for themselves."
Ferroni said he has listened to Christian parents complain that the inclusion of LGBTQ people in history goes against their religious beliefs. He always points out that parents can't pick and choose whose lives their children learn about.
"A lot of people use their religion to cover up their bigotry and their prejudice," Ferroni said. "You can't say we can't talk about LGBTQ historical figures for religious reasons and then accept that the [textbook] is made up of murderers, adulterers, and brutes. So to me, you can't be selectively religious. Either it's all OK or none of it is OK."
Another challenge to teaching queer history is the predominant idea that all same-sex relationships must be proven but that relationships between men and women are assumed to be real. There is often a higher bar for scholars and teachers to prove that historical figures were indeed queer. Bronski opposes what he calls a double-standard for proving relationships between historical figures were real. If the language for a love letter is similar to the love letters of the period, why not call it a love letter?
"I would argue you just get rid of the double standard. If it works for straight people, it works for gay people," Bronski said.
He gave the example of the different ways people interpret letters between people of the different genders and people of the same gender.
"We have these incredible letters between Dwight Eisenhower and Kate Summersby, who he had an affair with," Bronski said. "And they never say [anything about] sex, but they are clearly love letters between them, and no one has ever contested that they were just good friends. So I would say if we have similar letters between Eleanor Roosevelt and Renee Hickok, why not presume that they are lovers?"
It's vital for LGBTQ students to see these representations of themselves in the classroom, educators say, whether it's someone who challenges the gender binary or an influential military leader who had relationships with men. But straight students benefit too, Ferroni said.
"I'm not only doing it for LGBTQ students but for straight students, to let them know that it's OK to support these causes," Ferroni said. "I've had more straight students open their mind and talk to me after school and say, 'I never realized it was like that,' or 'I never realized LGBTQ people contributed that much.'"

Watch Out for Signs of Dehydration this Summer
We've all heard that it's important to drink plenty of water, but it's more important than ever to do so in the summer when it's hot. That's because your body loses fluids when it perspires to cool you off. And if you don't drink enough water to replace those fluids, you can become dehydrated.
Some signs that you may be dehydrated include:
- Thirst
- Dry, sticky mouth
- Dry, sunken eyes
- Dry skin
- Headache
- Lethargy
- Less frequent urination
- Dark yellow urine
Besides maintaining a normal body temperature, your body needs water for many other important functions such as lubricating joints, protecting the spinal cord and sensitive tissues, and to help get rid of waste.
That's why, according to the Mayo Clinic, you should seek immediate medical attention if you develop signs of severe hydration such as extreme thirst, a lack of urination, shriveled skin, and dizziness or confusion. Also, keep in mind that older adults and children are more susceptible to dehydration than others so it's important to pay closer attention for signs that they may be dehydrated.
Drinking plenty of water and other fluids can help you stay hydrated this summer. But if you don't like the way the water in your home tastes or smells, you may not drink as much as you should.
If you'd like to improve your home's water quality, we can test it for you. If we find any issues, we will recommend the right solution, whether you need a small reverse-osmosis unit to filter contaminants out of tap water or a whole-house water softening system. Contact us today to learn more.

Ghosts & Ashes (Broken Moon #2) by F.T. Lukens
Interlude Press
Cover art
Available for Sale at
Other Purchase Links: Google | Book Depository | Indiebound
Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words is happy to have F.T. Lukens here today to talk about her latest novel, Ghost & Ashes. Welcome, F.T., thank you for stopping by on your tour today. Hi FT, thank you for agreeing to this interview. Tell us a little about yourself, your background, and your current book.
- Do you buy a book because of the cover, the blurb, or something else?
I'm such a sucker for a pretty cover. It's not the sole reason I buy a book, but I do love a nice cover. I'm very lucky to have the beautiful covers I've had for my Broken Moon Series.
It also helps if the book is in my genre of choice. A good blurb that's interesting can get me too.
Probably needless to say but I do end up purchasing a lot of books.
- What does 'romance' mean to you?
This is a tricky question. I think romance can mean the whole sweep- someone-off-their-feet thing. But I tend to think of it as person meeting another person where they are and going from there. I think that's romantic. But I love slow-burn romances and pining and those kinds of tropes.
- What are your current projects?
I'm happily working on several different projects right now. This current book, Ghosts & Ashes, is the second of a trilogy. I'm busy plotting out the third and final installment. I also just finished another YA book about myths and cryptids. I'm also hoping to write a steampunk fantasy novel this year as well. It's a lot to squeeze in.
- What is the most difficult part of writing for you?
It's the motivation. I'm a driven person. I recently had to take a strengths finding test for my day job and my top was called "Achiever." Which basically means I'm here to get things done. But sometimes, after working a full day, and tending to three kids, and putting everyone to bed and I'm sitting at the keyboard and I'm drained… Those nights are difficult. But I surround myself with people who will push me. I have friends who will send me emails asking me if I've made my goals. And I have a goal tracking spreadsheet that keeps me on track.
- Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people.
I don't know if this is 'surprising' but it's funny/sweet. My penname is of course, not my real name. But it is a combination of an inside joke plus the name of the person who nicknamed me FT. The name 'Lukens' is the last name of a friend of mine who passed away. She loved nicknaming people and she loved to joke around. The FT part is the joke that I share with her and a few others and the Lukens in her last name. When I was coming up with the penname, I thought of her, and I knew she would've loved it. I'm sure where she is that she's smiling and probably laughing at me. 😉
GHOSTS & ASHES ~ Summary
Three months have passed since the events of The Star Host, and Ren is living aboard the Star Stream under the watchful eyes of the Phoenix Corps. Plagued by vivid nightmares that ravage the ship in his sleep, he struggles to prove he isn't a threat and fears he has traded one captor for another. His relationship with Asher, whose efforts to balance his personal loyalty to Ren with his professional duties to the Corps are failing, fractures.
Adrift without an anchor, Ren must return to his home planet of Erden if he has any chance of reversing his dangerous descent into madness. There, he hopes search for his missing brother and salvage his relationship with Asher. What he nds is knowledge that puts everyone's allegiance to the test.
"There you are!" Asher said, striding toward him, wrapping him in an embrace. "Stars, you're freezing." Asher rubbed Ren's arms; his palms swept over the chilled skin. "Where have you been? You left and never came back. Jakob and I have been looking all over for you."
Ren pitched forward, planted his face in Asher's chest, and shook. The terror at being taken again mixed with the crushing truths from his parents overwhelmed him.
"Hey, hey, you're okay." Asher pulled Ren close. "What happened? Was it a dream? Sleepwalking?"
Ren stilled. Pressed close to Asher's body, it would be easy to give into the urge to tell him everything, to spill the truth about what his parents had said about the Corps and the star hosts and the history his life was mired in. But his mother's words lingered in the back of his mind, and Ren remembered how Asher had sided with VanMeerten so many times since the debacle on the drift. Asher was Phoenix Corps, through and through. His allegiance was split, torn between Ren and his duty as a soldier. And how much did he know? Was Asher aware that the first mission of the Corps was to hunt down the scattered remnants of the star hosts? Or did he only know what he had been told, like the rest of them?
* * *
Ren poured his power outward. The force field created a partial wall between the captives and the Corps. The comms shrieked. The pulse guns spat electricity, came alive in the hands of those who wielded them, and sparked and sputtered, shocking the Corpsmen with forks and tangles of electricity. They fell, writhing on the ground, even Zag. Ren vibrated with their screams, tasted the burn of skin and hair, but it wasn't enough.
They had destroyed his home. They had made it so Ren could never return to what he was before. They had scared Ezzy, who was only a girl with a crush, who wanted to prove herself capable in a warzone when she should've been learning at school, playing in the woods, swimming in the lake, or blushing around boys. They had threatened them, frightened them, and they would burn, as Ren did, blaze in misery and despair, and thrash in pain until their veins blackened and peeled like wires, until their bones glowed like circuits.
The power flowed from him in a torrent, and he pushed it, and pushed it. He ensured those responsible were filled until they burst, until their souls were scorched out of them, until their humanity had crumbled to dust as his had.
* * *
Ren sighed. Asher wanted to talk, and Ren's insides ached with a fierce loneliness he hadn't experienced since the first night in the cell of the Baron's citadel. He didn't want Asher's words or his pity. And he didn't want to relive the details of the nightmare, which had sent him twisting in his sheets and crawling across the floor. The sense memories clung to him, like cobwebs whose phantom threads, fluttery and strange and stubborn, brushed against his skin. The strands were infinite; they touched the deep places of Ren's consciousness and burrowed down to his marrow to pull out the things that terrified him most.
He didn't want to share the nightmare, but Asher's flat countenance and sure gaze couldn't hide his worry. It flashed in his eyes and ran in shaky tremors down the length of his crossed arms, as if he hugged himself to keep in his concerns and not as a defense to reflect whatever Ren had to throw at him.
Ren bent his knees, propped his arm up, and allowed his fingertips to dangle. Sweat flattened his hair against his temples. He regarded Asher coolly as Asher sat on the edge of Ren's bunk.
"Do you remember when we went dancing?"
Asher blinked at the non-sequitur. "On Mykonos?"
Rowan had taken them dancing in a place with loud music and rotating lights. The beat had vibrated through Ren's boots. "I had never been dancing like that before."
Asher raised an eyebrow. "You weren't bad. Well, not as bad as Jakob."
"I liked the slow dance." Asher had grabbed Ren in his arms and pulled him to the dance floor. They'd laughed and moved and all Ren's worries had dissolved in happiness and the rhythm of the music. "I liked being with you. With the crew. I miss that."
"We're here now, Ren."
He shook his head. "No. You're not. It's different now."
"It doesn't have to be."
Ren looked away.
"Ren, you're not okay," he said flatly.
"No. I'm not, but I didn't feel like broadcasting it."
"It's a little late for that," Asher said softly. Ren's stomach twisted. Asher had all but confirmed his latest nightmare had played on the vid screens. The crew had seen what Ren couldn't remember, didn't want to remember. "You're getting worse. And they know it."
Ren twisted his lips. "I'm aware the crew already knows. Pen can't lie for anything."
"Not them. The Corps."
Ren rested his head on his knees. "You told her. You threw me to the wolves."
"I had to."
"Why? Do you want me to leave? Be locked away?"
"Stars, Ren. You know I don't want that."
"I don't know what you want, to be honest. I don't understand why you hold allegiance to them at all."
"Because I have to. I promised five years."
"You and your promises," Ren said bitterly. That was loyalty Ren couldn't understand, not after what the Corps had done to Asher, not after having left him for a year to rot in a cell on what they called a backwater planet. But Ren was beginning to realize there were things he would never understand and maybe wasn't meant to.
"And I promised I'd keep you safe. Any way I could. This is the only way. Don't you understand that?"
Ren felt the slight touch of Asher's fingertips across the back of his hand. His star sparked and sought out the mechanism in Asher's shoulder instinctually.
Asher shivered.
"There's a fine line between safety and captivity."

A writer once said that every time medical science demonstrates that with proper resources and with proper treatment, diseases might be treated if they aren't cured.
One such environmental factor is dust. While dust is a common substance found everywhere, it's especially problematic for those of us who may have a compromised respiratory system. A less than ideal breathing tract is found in people suffering with asthma, many allergies and yes even smokers. What's been ignored in many cases however, is that exposure to chemicals can cause a sensitivity to environmental factors such as dust.
If you're a smoker, it'll be recommended to you to discontinue smoking. Substances inside a cigarette have irritants which may contribute for the severity of the cough.

Exposure to chemical fumes and odors may compromise an otherwise healthy respiratory system. This in turn can lead to sensitivity to other environmental factors like dust, but also both primary and secondary tobacco smoke.

Treatment and Prevention Tips 1. Sleep in a warm bedroom - this may reduce night-time coughing. 2. Try inhalations of steam - this may make it easier to cough up the sputum.
Try getting enough sleep. If you don't sleep due to the inability to breathe normally, try increasing your bed's head. When you do this, the nasal passages and sinuses would have better amount of drainage and it won't induce a "tickle" inside the throat.
A chronic cough, wheezing, breathing difficulties and a tight chest have also been associated with the common smoker's cough. This is unfortunate as there are many environmental factors that can contribute to an infection and caused these types of symptoms.
Healthy Skin Purified water will prevent many skin diseases and skin problems. Exposure to chlorine has been linked to health problems such as skin irritation,
, asthma, and even cancer. Chlorine has been proven as one of the major causes of early aging skin and hair. Removing the chlorine in shower water will result in younger, softer skin and healthy looking softer hair.

chronic bronchitis
will determine the level of action that's needed to limit dust exposure. Someone who is extremely sensitive may need special air cleaning equipment installed in their home. While another who's sensitivity is not as pronounced may be able to live comfortably in a home simply on a regular cleaning schedule.

Air pollution, infections, allergies and chronic
do worse. Chronic bronchitis is often associated with other lung diseases. Chronic
is one form of chronic obstructive pulmonary (lung) disease. Chronic bronchitis, emphysema and asthma as a group, are the leading causes of death in the United States. Approximately 14.2 million people have COPD about 12.5 million cases of chronic bronchitis and 1.7 million have come from emphysema. Specific treatment of chronic bronchitis will be determined by your doctor based. Corticosteroids may occasionally be used during asthma attacks or wheezing in people with severe bronchitis that is not responding to other treatments. Antibiotics may be prescribed for the treatment of infections as needed.
Acid reflux can now be successfully treated with many medications. If you think that someone you know may be suffering from a chronic cough caused by
or possibly asthma, it's important to understand the lifestyle implications this may involve. The primary focus however, should be to get an accurate diagnosis from a qualified respiratory or pulmonary medical professional.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a well regarded medical facility, bronchitis and the resulting cough can also be caused from stomach acid irritating for food pipe or esophagus. This is better known as acid reflux disease.
If it can't be prevented, there are suggested and prescribed medications like the following: 1. betaz- agonists [inhaled] - this kind of medication will be usually prescribed if chronic cough is present. You or a caretaker must be very cautious of the side effects like trembling and tenseness.
1. Acetaminophen - a drug which is commonly used for relieving soreness of our body and fever as well. 2. Ibuprofen - this drug is given for individuals for giving aid to the fever which they possess.
Anything chronic is considered to be a persistent, recurrent and lasting condition. While chronic bronchitis has often been associated with allergies and/or asthma, there are many other causes that can trigger a bronchial infection. Asthma as we know is a lung disease that is characterized by asthmatic events triggered by a variety of factors which cause a constriction of the bronchial tubes and air passages.
Be well-informed about the disorder most especially its handling would give a lot of benefits. Read more about how bronchitis is treated. Most importantly, speak with your doctor and don't fear to ask your queries if there are some vague terms which you couldn't understand.
might be cured if you learn the ways for making yourself better. These information might also be very helpful for your caretaker. Relieve the cough.

The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a devastating disease. Chronic
is an inflammation or irritation of the airways in the lungs. Chronic
is a long-term inflammation of the airways, which leads to increased production of mucus, as well as other changes. The symptoms of chronic
include a mucus-producing cough (sometimes called sputum), breathing difficulties and a feeling of tightness in the chest. Occasionally, chest pain, fever, fatigue or malaise and may also occur. Mucus is usually green or yellowish green. Smoking is the leading cause of chronic
. The more a person smokes, the more it becomes likely that the person will receive
and will be severe bronchitis. From tobacco smoke can also cause
chronic bronchitis
Since cough might be very annoying, you must find ways to stop coughing. The very effective action is drinking plenty of fluids [non-caffeinated] like water and juices. Studies reveal that water is a best expectorant for easing your cough and it's thin like mucus.
If the chronic bronchitis is to be considered very severe then you'll have to do "oxygen therapy." This is a kind of therapy which administers oxygen as its therapeutic modality where the oxygen supply would be heightened. With the use of a nasal cannula or a mask, oxygen would be supplied to us.
3. Aspirin - a drug which is usually used like an "analgesic" for reducing minor pains, body aches etc. However, aspirins aren't recommended being used by children unless they're advised by their doctor.
Greater vitality You'll have more energy because your body doesn't have to work as hard to filter out chemicals and unwanted substances that may cause stress to the lungs, liver and kidneys. Your immune system will remain healthy. Water filters also reduce the soap scum that builds up on sinks, bathtubs, and dishes so you won't have to spend time scrubbing them clean.

Wedding berry pies
16 comments:
Those pies are beautiful and perfect! I am uber impressed you made your own wedding dessert! You are A-MAZING!!! PS- wedding photos are necessary!ReplyDelete
Congratulations! And I LOVE mixed berry pies. Baking my own dessert for my own wedding is something I would do. Please post pictures from your wedding!ReplyDelete
I love that you did this!! I'm fully planning on making my own cake for my wedding so it's especially awesome to see and read from someone else who made their own wedding dessert. Congratulations!ReplyDelete
Wow, now that's a lot of pie. Gorgeous color!ReplyDelete
There is a lot to be said to baking your own desserts for your wedding. I hope to bring something personal like this to my wedding too!ReplyDelete
I love the thought of pie for a wedding! I was wondering about how the filling chilled. Good to know:)ReplyDelete
They look fantastic... I'm not usually a pie person, but they look simple, fresh, and delicious!ReplyDelete
And how organised to have made so many pies before your wedding!

So it's pretty common knowledge that I recently got married and moved to a new town. I love my husband very much and I'm happy working on settling into his house which is now our house (and yes, it took me forever to actually call it "our" house)
But there's one thing I don't like about moving and getting married.
I miss my friends.
I had (and have) a really cool group of friends in Rochester. We hung out frequently, sometimes just us girls, sometimes the whole crew. We had craft nights, game nights, margaritas nights, Murder Mystery parties, Halloween parties, Superbowl nights, and just regular old hang out times. Its been awesome and I am so thankful to have such a great group of people to hang out with. We always have a great time and tons of laughs are had.
And I miss that now that I've moved. Granted, Rochester isn't that far away, but it's still much harder to plan things and it can be a pain to have to face an hour drive home at the end of the night. And mid-week get togethers are pretty much out when two hours of driving is involved.
So... suggestions. How do you meet people roughly your age in a new town, a small town? I work from home, so I don't have co-workers to get to know, or to introduce me to people. Matt has some great co-workers, but they're all guys. I need some girls to hang out with. And some people that have nothing to do with the sound industry. My one good friend here sometimes freelances for Matt's company, so when he's working a really big event or a long weekend, chances are she is too.
So, bottom line, I've been married for a few weeks, and living here for a little bit and I'm on a mission to meet people!

What's for Dinner?
This story appears in the August 2003 issue of Entrepreneur. Subscribe »
Vital Stats: Tina Kuna and Stephanie Firchau, both 40, co-founders of Dream Dinners Inc.
Company: Home meal-preparation service, with five locations in Washington state
2003 Sales Projections: $1.8 million to $3 million
Noshin' Notion: A stay-at-home mom with a catering background, Firchau had been preparing and freezing meals to save time during busy evenings. But she found her knack when she staged a larger cook-out with girlfriends at a rented commercial kitchen, charging only for the cost of food. "I was getting phone calls and e-mails from [friends of friends] asking if they could come," Firchau says. When eight sessions filled quickly, Firchau realized she had struck gold and asked longtime friend Kuna to be her business partner.
"Our recipes aren't gourmet, but we push the limit to get people to try new things."
Class in Session: Twelve customers, each paying $160, migrate around the refrigerated stations, preparing any 12 of the 14 meals featured monthly. Pre-chopped ingredients, measuring cups and simple instructions for creations like lemon pork chops or herb-crusted flank steak await. Pre-ordering their selections, "all they need to do is follow the recipes, and they're done in two hours," says Kuna.
Teen Dream: Firchau's 17-year-old daughter caught the entrepreneurial bug, too, and began delivering cooked Dream Dinner meals within a 20-mile radius for a small fee. A new kitchen, opened in April, focuses on deliveries for eaters all over Washington state.
Food Fancy: "We've had people e-mail us their FedEx numbers," says Kuna, recounting the intense interest that has them getting ready to franchise. "We even had two women from Sacramento, California, fly up, cook over the weekend, and pack everything to ship on the plane home."

There are quite a few Google Reader apps available for the Android platform. Some are solid and stable, while others never make it out of beta. There is now a new RSS app out called Deer Reader, which shows much promise.
The app comes from the dev duo of XDA Forum Member lz2323 and XDA Senior Member blackbearblanc. If they sound familiar, it's because they released an RSS widget before called Big News. Deer Reader is a more mainstream RSS app that keeps it simple. It still brings the features, though.
They include:
- Google Reader sync
- Two dark/two light themes (shown above)
- Widgets – 4×1 static / 4×4 scrollable, including dark/light and transparent themes.
- News in Jelly Bean notification dropdown.
- Swipeable Feedlist
In addition, newer versions of the app are compatible with their other RSS app, so you can use both if you'd like. The initial betas had some issues, but both developers have been working hard to fix every bug and plug every hole. The latest release is beta 7, which no one has any complaints about so far. So if you're looking for a simple RSS reader with a decent theme and solid performance, this is one to try out.
For downloads, go to the original thread. Please note, later versions of the app hasn't been posted in the OP. You'll need to read through the thread to find them.

A recent flood of ideological intolerance and sensitivity to controversial ideas has been threatening to soil the fields of university campuses. Students have begun protesting speeches on campuses with controversial topics and ideas that they disagree with or that they declare as offensive. Invited lecturers are denied and turned away by universities kneeling to the demands of these students. The speakers, whose determination brings them to podiums regardless of circumstance, are challenged by disruptions and sometimes threats of physical violence from protesters, as well as the most common spectacle: inarticulate chants shouted at speakers by students who fortify their resolve with a self-attached sense of righteousness.
Students argue that they protest hate speech. Their perception of differing and controversial ideas and ideologies as dangerous and hateful is predicated on a sustained cycloptic view that reduces the complexity of issues to them versus the other, and the other is always wrong and often evil. If you don't agree, then you are the enemy.
Uproars have come with such frequency that protests seem more like a casual recreational activity—without real substance or meaning behind them. In a civilized society, if there is truly something wrong with an idea, the problem would be identified and resolved through discourse and consensus, not tongue lashed into the underworld. Dialogue must forego barbarism.
Regardless of the notoriety a public figure or speaker may have, canceling speeches is not only wrong, it would be to the detriment of intellectual diversity and health of universities. Keeping ideas, no matter how radical or subversive to any ideological principles, is harmful. If someone wants to give a speech while touting bad ideas, those bad ideas should be heard publically so they may be critiqued. Protesters are threatening to create an echo-chamber by barring ideas from flowing freely and colliding.
Initially, universities gave in to the demands of protesters, allowing students, in one case, to call for a "Day of Absence" at Evergreen College that asked all white students and faculty stay home for a day (a twist on a tradition of black students voluntarily doing the same.) When one professor objected, students amassed outside of his classroom, surrounded the professor and later demanded that he be fired for his objection. Conversely, the University of Chicago announced a commitment to academic liberty and a campus culture that does not support intellectual safe spaces. Such environments allow for sincere argumentation that promotes individual development of thought.
Historically, universities have served as battlegrounds for ideas and platforms for debate, and now more than ever, they must remain that way.

Health Informatics Laboratory
Director: Dr Jan Stanek
The project is closely related to the Human Variome Project especially to its Australian node. Currently MAWSON is a collaboration between UniSA (ACRC) and SA Pathology; funded by Quality Use of Pathology Project (Commonwealth Dpt. of Health and Aging).
The project is focused on collection clinical data on human variomics (i.e. collecting different variants of certain genes - currently BRCA1 and BRCA2 (breast cancer related genes)) to improve the quality and efficiency of interpretation of a variant found. Such system is needed, because we still know very little about human genome - while we were able to identify genes related to some diseases, it is only some variants of these genes which are pathogenic (i.e. leading to the disease).
Assessment of an unknown variant is a tedious task, and lots of information searching may be needed to get enough solid evidence to make a good and reliable decision. This is further complicated with high stakes involved (e.g. intense prophylactic measures if a high risk pathogenic variant is found in a young woman - even mastectomy..; Now imagine the clinicians got it wrong...; On the other hand - misinterpreting a variant as OK will lead to the person falling off the radar and possibly silently developing early cancer...). Sharing this information is thus important - ideally a nation-wide collaboration should be achieved.
MAWSON project is focusing on collection of *all* variants from participating laboratories, along with local interpretation of these variants (wherever available) in a safe and flexible way. We strictly differ form the laboratory systems (i.e. we do not want to replace local databases holding all the confidential clinical data on individual patients), as well as from research locus-specific databases (we aspire to collect all variants found - wild, benign, pathogenic, unknown... , not only the "interesting" ones). We are also rather unique in our attempt to establish a semi-automatic collection of data and providing high security of the data trail from the laboratory computer up to our dedicated server.
