Former New York Governor George Pataki (R), who ran for president as a Republican in 2015 for over 6 months, warned in an interview published this week that the radical elements of the Democratic Party seem to hold influence over presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden.
“I’ve been disappointed by the ability of the leftist activists in the party like Bernie Sanders and [Alexandria] Ocasio-Cortez to apparently influence him in real and significant ways,” Pataki told The New York Post.
“The Biden who was the moderate Democrat for a long time serving in Congress might not be the Biden who we would see as president,” said Pataki.
As The Daily Wire reported back in May, “a source with direct knowledge” told CNN that the Biden campaign had retained Ocasio-Cortez as a climate change task-force co-chair, an apparent move to bolster his credibility with the far Left.
Biden has also teamed up with Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) to create a “Unity” task-force that will push the official Democratic platform even further to the Left.
The platform involves creating a federally funded “civilian corps of unarmed first responders” to handle 911 calls deemed nonviolent, making public colleges free for 80% of American families, forgiving federal student loan debt after 20 years, and promising to never “cut, privatize, or weaken” social security, among over 100 other pages of recommendations.
In response to the “Unity” platform, Vice President Mike Pence recently warned that Biden was adopting an agenda that made it look more like Sanders won the Democratic nomination than the former vice president.
“When you consider Joe Biden’s agenda and his embrace of the radical Left, it’s clear: Joe Biden would be nothing more than an autopen president,” said Pence. “A Trojan horse for a radical agenda; so radical, so all-encompassing, that it would transform this country into something utterly unrecognizable.”
“The Biden-Sanders agenda would set America on the path of socialism and decline,” said Pence. “And as our nation endures this time of testing, we’d do well to tell our neighbors and friends that it’s also a time for choosing.”
The Biden campaign also recently hired a video producer who tweeted a meme calling police officers worse than pigs, and has used the “Defund The Police” hashtag, according to Fox News. The staffer has since deleted the tweets, reports the news agency.
While Biden doesn’t explicitly endorse the “Defund The Police” movement, he recently told CBS News he does support “conditioning federal aid to police, based on whether or not they meet certain basic standards of decency and honorableness. And, in fact, are able to demonstrate they can protect the community and everybody in the community.”
During the same interview, the former vice president also said, “we have to, in my way, change the way that the entire criminal justice system functions and the prison system. It should turn into a rehabilitation system, not just punishment.”

Thesis Proposal in China
Today I had to officially submit my masters thesis proposal to a panel of professors at East China Normal University. In Chinese, the verb for going through this process is 开题. When you propose your thesis topic, you have to give each professor on the panel a copy of your proposal, or 开题报告. Then you summarize what you’d like to do in your thesis, and ask the professors any questions, if you’d like. The professors ask you questions about the scope of your thesis, controlling certain variables, theoretical basis, how your thesis will differ from existing research, etc. If all goes well, they will give you a few recommendations, approve the topic, then sign some paperwork and it’s all over. (I wish I could compare the process to an American version, but I’ve only ever been a graduate student in China, so I can’t.)
My thesis proposal was approved. I still have to revise the scope of my experiment somewhat, but I’m going to be studying some of the problems that North Americans have with the tones of Mandarin Chinese as upper elementary level exchange students in China.
In preliminary research on my topic, the most relevant and interesting paper I came across was a research paper by Dr. Qinghai Chen, who is currently a professor at the University of Michigan. Dr. Chen’s doctoral dissertation was done at Brigham Young University in 2000, entitled “Analysis of Mandarin Tonal Errors in Connected Speech by English-Speaking American Adult Learners: A Study at and Above the Word Level.”
The part of the abstract that intrigues me most:
> Findings at and above the word level jointly led to a summary of tonal error patterns, a discussion of relevant learner factors, an acquisition order of tonal contrasts, a set of criteria for better tones, and pertinent pedagogical suggestions.
So far I have been unable to get a full copy of the dissertation. I have contacted Dr. Chen and am awaiting his reply, but I’m afraid he might be on vacation or something. If anyone has an electronic copy of this paper, I would greatly appreciate the help!
Update: I got several e-mails offering help in acquiring Dr. Chen’s doctoral dissertation, including one with a PDF copy of exactly what I’m looking for (and within 12 hours of publishing this post). You readers are awesome! Thank you.
Wouldn’t it be easier just to buy a master’s degree? One guy I know paid about 10,000 RMB for his, I think. There’s a thesis topic right there: an analysis of the fake master’s degree market in China.
Hmmm, definitely easier. I always thought it would be hilarious to buy in China various fake degrees from American ivy league schools and frame and hang them on my walls.
TONED OUT – I think a lot of tonal problems come from our typical study of second language by words mostly in isolation. My tones are usually pretty good in words that I have learned within phrases, but when I insert a ‘new’ word in a sentence, invariably I mumble thru the tone.
It’s one of the ‘problems’ I see growing with Cpod’s pedagogy. There to me is too much growing focus on ‘words’ throughout. There seems to me less and less emphasis on lexis and other chunks. I think the proper tones come thru hearing and use of them within the proper prior/post tones of high-frequency associated words.
IMO it’s impossible to ‘remember’ all those tones/words, there must be some natural generator that eventually generates them properly…if we study right.
I went to the U of M! I will see if I can help you out. Hang tight!
I was able to google Dr. Chen’s contact info at U of M. You could ask him yourself!
You should also be able to google BYU’s Asian Studies Dept, they should keep a copy of dissertations on file. Your university’s librarian might be able to request a copy, as well.
If those two options don’t work for you, please contact me; I know a prof in developmental psych who might be able to pull some strings.
I did a lot of Second Language Acquisition work when I was in Ann Arbor! I would love to hear your conclusions… both out of academic curiosity, and because in 10 days I’m going to Hangzhou for a summer immersion program… so as a learner!
Do you think your thesis will just be the data and analysis, or are you going to offer recommendations to teachers and learners? I don’t remember much myself about error analysis/error correction, except that as a teaching strategy, overt grammatical error correction is sometimes totally ignored by learners.
Of course I was doing romance languages, so error correction in terms of tone was not a question. In terms of error correction in pronunciation, or just pronunciation instruction in general, my coordinator had it on very low priority. For her class, I wrote a little paper on learner attitudes re their own accents….
Anyway, let me know if contacting Dr. Chen or the AS dept at BYU doesn’t work…..
Wow, I took a class from Prof. Chen (陈青海) a couple of semesters ago (it was Business and Professional Chinese). Small world huh? He’s a good teacher, I think he did his Ph.D in education and linguistics? He’s a nice guy, I’m sure he will reply. If you really need it, I probably could get it from him for you. Anyway, well I’m not a linguistic student (I’m an engineer), but a grad student none-the-less, in the states essentially what you do is write a proposal which first gives some background information on why you want to do this, then what you have done to prove what you want to do is possible, and then what you proposal you will do for the next few years of your research. There’s a paper copy you hand to your committee a couple of weeks before the presentation and then you make a 15 minute long presentation and present it in front of your committee. They could either ask you questions during the presentation, or wait till afterwards. Then they make you leave the room so they can deliberate over whether if you should continue, and then if they agree that you should, they would let you in and sign the sheet. If they are not satisfied with your current progress, they could make you do some more work and submit another written paper.
Well, if you have a library account with a university in the States (or know someone that will let you use their account) you can access Proquest through the school library which will allow you to pull up the abstract and purchase the pdf for $32.00.
I know it’s $32.00 because I just looked it up for you. If you’re really in a hurry I can give you the info and you can go download it yourself, you just need ＵＳ credit card.
I did contact Dr. Chen, and I have yet to hear back from him. It’s the summer, and I’m afraid he may be on vacation or something, so I figured while I’m waiting I’d try another angle.
Ha, small world indeed! Good to know he’s a good guy. I’m sure he’s on vacation or something and not just jealously guarding his research.
Thanks also for filling me in on the American version of the 开题 process!
I’d rather not have to pay $32, since I only want a copy of it for legitimate research purposes. It’s entirely in the spirit of academia, but the problem is that Chinese schools are shut out of the “free access to research papers” network that encompasses pretty much all universities in the States.
I asked my developmental psych friend if she knew Dr. Chen, she didn’t. Maybe I was the only linguist she knew (roll eyes). Keep me posted… I will ask a librarian friend of mine what she can do. I will be in Shanghai in July, I might be able to hand you a copy in person….
When I was in grad school, I REALLY needed to read what Rochement was saying about focus constructions, but I just could not get a copy of the book before my deadline… so I dropped out and became a high school Spanish teacher, a tragedy that has affected too many people (mainly my students!).
Actually, another reader already came through for me! (See the update to the original post above.) Thanks a lot for your help… I really appreciate the reader support.
Sweet! Where the hell was the blogosphere when I needed a copy of Rochement?
Actually，have you checked the library of your school? They claim to have full text access to ProQuest thesis database.
（Look for ProQuest学位论文全文数据库 — as far as I understand, CALIS is one of the “free paper” networks in China）
I can confirm that Dr. Chen is a super nice guy, I took several classes of his, and I remember he went out of his way to help me with non-class related things.
Good luck with the project, hopefully you won’t run into any of the problems my wife has told me about that happen at her university when people try to get arguing faculty members to approve their MA papers. It seems some people have their approval pushed back a year, and can do nothing but sit on their hands and wait.
I’ve contacted with Dr. Qinghai Chen several years ago, asked him how can I get his dissertation. He told me that he finished his diss. on an old Mac, so electronic version is unavailable (even for himself).
I finally got the scanned version from ProQuest till several weeks ago. You’re very lucky, you have lots of blog fans. ^_^
And by the way, Sun (1998) is worth reading for your study. Good luck!

Maya had expected to hate the snow.
Sure, she liked snow before she got her powers, but it wasn’t the delightful, magical thing to her that it always seemed like it was to kids on TV when she was growing up. Unlike those kids (invariably from California, or California pretending to be somewhere else, or Vancouver pretending to be California), snow was just a fact of her life. Winter came and it was there, usually until mid-spring. It was a pleasant, but mundane thing, like milk or cars.
Because of that, she thought gaining a biological affinity for fire would give an equal and opposite antipathy for the snow and the cold.
And it was true that she had to bundle up so much that with all her layers of hoodies, coats and scarves, she was as wide as she was tall, but she found herself delighted. The secret was a simple fact she’d overlooked: snow was water, water didn’t burn, and so the blanket of snow covering Walking Bear Mountain made it so that for the first time in months, she sensed next to nothing that would readily burn in her extra senses.
She’d never be able to adequately explain it, but this was a glorious, freeing experience that made her want to start a blog just so she could write down all the good feelings she got that just stemmed from the fact that for once, she didn’t feel like she was on the brink of disaster.
Not everyone agreed. Soot was terrified and didn’t hesitate to let her know it. The moment they left the cabin, he wriggled and fussed until Olivia handed him back to Maya, at which point, he zipped right back into his globe, and to Maya’s shock, managed to close it up behind him.
The terrified fireling was now, thanks to the magic of Kura, Tammy and craft wire, dangling from Maya’s cap, his globe replacing the pompom. He was alternating between joyous excitement as the globe whipped around in the wind, and mortal terror whenever he remembered that The Enemy (in this case, dihydrogen monoxide in its solid, crystalline form) was literally everywhere.
The only thing that calmed him down, even for a little bit, was reassurance from Maya, and after a full day of it, she was starting to feel silly for having been afraid of him.
“Remember, pizza slices and fries!” Kura called out. She was dressed in an outlandish ensemble in red and green and purple topped off by a jester’s cap with little silver bells. As the only one of the group with much experience skiing, she’d decided that she was their ski instructor, the insane food based mantra being her way to remind them how to position their skis to slow down or speed up.
It mostly made Maya wish she had a pizza and some fries. For her, the only bad thing about the bunny slope was a lack of concession stands. She forced down a squeak of panic as a bump in the snow briefly sent her airborne, but managed to keep her balance and correct, sliding to a stop not far from where Tammy was taking a break to flick through a digital brochure of the resort.
“Hi Maya.” She waved, “That was pretty good.”
Maya smiled at her, then back up the slope where Kura was pestering Steampunk and Olivia with conflicting advice on how to properly turn. “Thanks. This is actually a lot of fun.”
“Tell me about it.” said Tammy. “Last time my family was at a place like this, it was my Grandma’s wedding and I was too little even for the bunny slope.”
“Wanna head back over to the rope tow and go again then?”
Still focused on what she was looking for, Tammy nodded absently. “In a minute. I’m looking for Bigfoot.”
Maya’s eyebrow shot up. “Bigfoot?”
“Bigfoot.” Tammy confirmed.
“You don’t…” Maya started carefully. Bigfoot didn’t exist, obviously, but some people believed he did and Maya wasn’t willing to accidentally insult her friend over something as stupid as the existence of skunk apes.
“It’s a promotion they’re running for the Spring break crowd.” said Tammy. “There’s a marker somewhere on the mountain that links to a program on your computer that makes Bigfoot appear in your camera view when you point it in the right direction. If you find him and get to within ten feet of him first, you get a free week, all expenses paid.”
She flashed Maya a confident grin. “I’m going to win it and bring my mom, dad and Brother here for Christmas.”
As weird as Tammy and Kura could be, Maya had to admit that sometimes, they could be really sweet in their own ways. She’d heard about the Tree party for Christmas and Steampunk’s personalized glasses, and it was things like that that explained why she liked being friends with them.
“That sounds great. Is there something I can do to help?”
“Download the app and help me keep my Sasquatch watch?” Tammy asked.
“Deal.” Maya agreed. “Can we go back up now? They wouldn’t set it up in places everyone goes anyway, would they?”
From her expression, it was clear that Tammy had been so intent on her goal that such a simple fact had gone right by her. She let out a nervous chuckle at her obliviousness. “Yeah… good idea. Let’s go.” They half slid, half waddled toward the line for the tow rope.
They weren’t the only vacationers at walking bear, and the line proved it. There were families with kids and college students, beginners all, waiting ahead of them. All day, it had been at least a five minute wait to get back up the hill, and it was even worse on some of the chair lifts.
“So did you know that you can order a s’more kit right out of the room service catalog?” Tammy asked while they waited.
Maya pondered this a moment and asked, “Wait… but the fireplace is just a program built into the TV. How do you cook them?” She’d been extremely happy to learn that. Fireplaces, for obvious reasons, weren’t her favorite room feature.
Tammy grinned excitedly. “It’s a full kit: marshmallows, graham crackers, chocolate, roasting sticks—and a portable fire pit. For fifteen dollars more, you get hotdogs too.”
“I don’t think that would be a good idea with me there.” Maya said with disappointment in her voice. She hated being a limiting factor on her friends. Also, why was everything coming back to food? She was so very hungry and her usual store of horded toaster pastries and jerky were lost in the thick cocoon or warm clothes she was nestled in.
“Maya?” a voice cut in, interrupting her angst.
The girls froze. That wasn’t the voice of one of their friends. It was an older voice. A male voice.
Tammy swallowed and stuffed her hands in her pockets, fumbling for something there. “Mai? Don’t turn around, but we’ve got some stranger danger coming toward us. Old guy, wearing one of those big, pillowy coats. He’s got some kind of briefcase thing with him. Probably one of those bogus FBI guys again.”
Despite her best efforts, Maya whimpered. “But… how did they find me?”
“How did they find you the first time?” Tammy asked. Her hands came out of her pockets wrapped with paper clips chained together. A childish use of office supplies—unless you were Tammy Kaine.
Maya frowned. It’d been in the back of her mind for months and she still had no idea.
“Maya!” The man called, increasing his stride now that his goal was in sight.
Behind him, two of the resort’s security guards rounded the corner. “Hey!” one bellowed, “You! Get back here!”
That was all the extra confirmation Tammy needed. “Run, Maya, run! Ski for your life!” She gave the smaller girl a mighty shove that sent her sliding back a few yards and forced her to pinwheel her arms furiously to keep her balance.
That exchange made the man pause mentally, but not in his rush toward the pair. How stupid could he have been? The girl have been on the run, from Ambrose, from Generations, and if what he knew about America’s own descendant problem, from Project Tome. She was probably still jumping at shadows and wouldn’t think to try telling friend from foe before running.
It was up to him to prove himself. He gripped the case in his hand and had a flash of inspiration. Drawing in a deep breath, he called out one more time. “I got a present for Beacon’s little Fly Monkey!”
On a certain level, it worked. Maya stopped what she was doing upon hearing the nickname, if not the phrase. She knew both well, had heard it all her life.
Before she took of gymnastics in school, her original jungle gym had been that plane her father owned with his service buddies. Even when she was very little, whenever they were out at the airstrip, she’d make a beeline for that plane and climb all over it—like a monkey, according to her father’s friends. And so among those five, she’d become known as the ‘little Fly Monkey’, well past the age where it became embarrassing. It wasn’t any less so in front of a crowd of strangers and Tammy.
It was enough to give her pause, which was unfortunate, because what she paused in doing was trying to keep from tipping over, which she promptly did.
For a moment, she had a wonderful view of a clear blue sky, and her mind screamed with Soot’s panic. His globe had landed in, and partially sank into the snow, which for a fireling was something like going down in a shark cage.
She sat up and took off her hat in order to cuddle Soot through the glass, offering him promises that she wouldn’t let the snow get him and that everything was okay now. As she did, she finally looked up, finding the man closing the last few feet between them. He looked familiar now that she got a good look at him.
At that moment, Tammy came skidding into his path. Having abandoned her ski poles, the redhead weaved crazily on her feet, but still managed to brandish the paper clip chains wrapped around her hands, which she caused to spit sparks.
“Far enough, old man.” She said in a confident voice. “Nobody’s taking my friend.”
The old man drew up short, almost falling himself. “I’m not trying to take her. I’m here to…” he blustered a bit, trying to decide which of his goals took priority. “I came to give her this. And to talk.” he leaned around Tammy to look at Maya. “I have some very important things to tell you, Maya.”
“Hey!” Tammy threatened, presenting a sparking fist. “Don’t try anything.”
By then, Maya had scrambled to her feet and put her hands on Tammy’s shoulders. “I-it’s okay. I know him.”
Caught up in her tough act, Tammy forgot who she was supposed to be giving a hard time to. “Yeah? Then what’s his name?”
“Captain Gordon.” Maya said quickly. “He worked with my…” She couldn’t bring herself to finish that. A tear started to form in her eye and a wisp of smoke escaped her.
Looking stricken at seeing Maya upset, he nodded. “Captain Marshall Gordon,” He said carefully, “Royal Canadian Air Force.”
By then, the security guards caught up to him. “Alright sir, I’m going to have to ask you to leave.” Said the first to arrive, a young man with a shaved head under his security cap. He had the look of someone who wanted really liked the authority.
When he grabbed Captain Gordon’s arm to lead him away, the older man shook him off with ease. “I’ll go on my own in just a minute.”
The guard didn’t like that one bit, especially since his partner had caught up too. “Sir, we can do this the easy way, or the police can be involved.” He was unsnapping the holster holding his pepper spray.
Captain Gordon ignored him and proffered the case, it was larger and thicker than a briefcase and was made of aluminum. “Maya, I brought you this. It was your father’s and I’ve been holding on to it for you ever since his personal effects were declassified.”
“Declassified…?” Maya asked.
Annoyed at the lack of what he felt was the respect due to him, the guard grabbed the captain’s arm again, more forcefully. “That’s it sir. We could have been friendly about this but now you’re officially trespassing.”
“Wait!” Maya slipped past Tammy to try and stop them, but Captain Gordon stopped her by thrusting the case into her arms.
“It’s okay, Maya. I did break the law after all. I just want to make sure that you know the truth.” He let the pushy guard pull him away, but it was clear he was controlling the pace. “I don’t know what they’ve told you, but the fire wasn’t you fault—You need to know it wasn’t your fault.”
So everyone told her. Maya hung her head. But even if she was totally sure, that didn’t change how the fire had felt to her that night. It made her stomach churn.
“It was the Project’s!” Captain Gordon said. He was about to elaborate when he suddenly remembered something much more urgent. “Wait. One more thing!” He had to shout now, they were so far apart. “When I got here, I saw Ambrose in town!”
And then he was gone. Pulled around the corner by the two guards.
Maya was rooted to the ground staring after him, arms wrapped around the aluminum case.
Before she could do it herself, Tammy gave voice to her thoughts for her. “What just happened here?”
A chill ran blew down off Walking Bear Mountain and Maya shivered. “Uncle Gordy.” She said softly, having meant to call him that earlier. “One of my dad’s friends. They were pilots together. He…” The words caught in her throat. “he always bought me astronaut food whenever he came to visit, and… and…”
It was really too much. She’d pushed the crushing weight of reality away for so long. Her parents were gone, but that wasn’t all she’d lost. With them she’d lost her home and every connection she’d made in her young life, including her gang of honorary Uncle Flyboys.
“Tammy?” she hadn’t noticed the girl had come closer, looking concerned at her expression until just then. “I need you to call Kura. We need to bail him out.”
Thirty minutes later, before the girls could even fully rally, Captain Gordon left the Constance Police Department following a man in a chauffeur’s uniform and a flat cap down the side ramp to a waiting limousine.
“Not that I’m not grateful, but I’ve never even heard of this man you say is your boss.” He said, eying the limo with caution. “Why would he bail me out? How would he even know I’d been arrested?”
The chauffeur shrugged, an unprofessional, but honest gesture. “Sorry, sir, but I just got the directions from the service and a script to read to the police.” he opened the back door for Captain Gordon to get in, which he did after leaning in and making a quick inspection for men with guns.
“Afternoon, Cap’n.” A smooth, southern drawl said as soon as Captain Gordon was seated and the door was closed. It took a moment for him to realize that the voice was simply coming from the speakers.
“Who am I talking to?” Captain Gordon wasn’t feeling beholden to the voice for anything until he knew what it wanted.
There was a soft, genial laugh. “Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m Vincent Liedecker. That’s Liedecker as in the John T Liedecker Institute for Descendants—as in I own it. And ever sense this little girl, Blumberg showed up things have gotten complicated with fake FBI, called from detectives and legal threats from companies that don’t exist. And every time I turn around, there’s a Canadian crawlin’ out of the woodwork—including you.”
Liedecker paused, letting the discontent melt away from his voice to take on friendly terms. “And like the fella my people found bribed his way into the same holding cell as you. Cap’n, I do believe we was tryin’ to kill you… And I want to know why.”

College gender gap stabilizing
The gender gap in higher education may be stabilizing, according to a new report from the American Council on Education.
It also appears that a 57-43 female majority may be here to stay.
The report, "Gender Equity in Higher Education: 2010," finds that the share of men in undergraduate education nationwide has leveled off around 43 percent after decades of steady decline. The share of men slipped slightly from 44 percent in the 1995-96 academic year to 42 percent in 2003-04, then inched back up to 43 percent in 2007-08, the most recent year studied. And there, perhaps, it will stay.
The share of bachelor's degrees attained by men, too, has stabilized at 43 percent.
Men once dominated higher education, mostly because of artificial barriers that barred many women from collegiate study. Those barriers gradually fell away; women caught and then surpassed men as a share of the collegiate population.
Men, by contrast, face very real barriers -- and alternatives -- to college entry and completion, being overrepresented in the military, special education, manual labor and prison populations.
Now, gender balance is becoming a concern at some schools. Vassar College, Wesleyan University, the College of William and Mary and others receive many more applications from women than from men. Admit rates are lower for women than for men at some schools, prompting talk of possible gender bias in admissions.
Federal civil rights investigators this winter initiated an investigation into admission practices at more than a dozen Washington-area colleges, looking for evidence of potential gender discrimination.
Nationally, the only gender group still declining as a share of the college population is Hispanic males: the share of Hispanic undergraduates 24 or younger who were male declined from 45 percent in 1990-2000 to 42 percent in 2007-08. Hispanic young men also had the lowest bachelor's degree rate of any demographic group studied, 10 percent.
"Raising the attainment rate of Hispanic men -- and women -- looms as one of the most significant challenges facing American education," said Jacqueline King, assistant vice president of ACE's Center for Policy Analysis and author of the study.

The Fiendish Mexican Bug Retold
I told Osprey the story of the Fiendish Mexican Bug, but it fell flat, so here is the story for your pleasure or disgust.
Long ago in a far-off land, Nancy Elliott left for vacation in Monterrey, Mexico. When she returned she had gifts for her friends. My gift was a small carved horse (the dog above approximates the level of craft). I cherished my gift, painted pink, purple and red, and put it in a place of honor beside my computer monitor.
The next day there was a tiny pile of sawdust under the carved animal. I could not imagine where it had come from, as there did not appear to be a hole in the animal. However, the next day there was an even larger pile of sawdust. I hoped it was some sort of packing that was seeping out of the horse's belly, and tried to ignore it.
Finally, on the third day, when the pile was larger yet, I approached Nancy with the problem. "I think there is something inside that is drilling, drilling drilling," I said.
Not one to hesitate, Nancy said, "We will get to the bottom of this. Fetch me a glass of water!"
I brought the water back and she dunked the little carving into it. The color came off and into the pink water swam a little black bug, paddling for his very life.
"It's a Fiendish Mexican Bug!" Nancy shouted. "We have to kill it!"
We managed to end that bug's life there in the art department, but I wish I still had that little pink wooden horse. Between the drilling and the water, sadly, he was utterly ruined.

According to Christian, who is but one of approximately five million Danes in Denmark but a very comfortable majority of Danish types at the excellent Reynolds Yarraman vineyard in the wild sandstone country of the Upper Hunter,"dees arnimarles are dicking holes in de vinyard and causing de tracator to overflip ven hitting at speed... oh yeas, and dees arnimarles are vombats wit dicking claws actif in de vinyard arose after sundown". How can you Australians tolerate such arnimarles and der dicking holes all over de place and zo on.
Apparently, back in the land of the mink the viking and the feral cat, "vombats" wouldn't get a viticultural look in if they carried on like those nasty bastards up Wybong way. Christian says they should be farmed for their fur. It would be a matter of tenderly locking them up for the duration, and after a quick wack on the back of the nut,. hey presto, one high quality, fully impounded vombat stole, vit for a kink.
And the leftovers? Well we offered him an authentic full-cream recipe for genuine vombat bisque au gratin as handed down through generations of airborne Aussie vineyard tractor drivers.. a method which I suspect he dutifully transcribed into Danish on the flap of his well-travelled backpack. I can see it all now. A stole of Crepe Vombat au gratin... the genuine, environmentally sound fully imported gourmet delight niche-marketed to the unsuspecting diners of Double Pay as the taste sensation you can eat or wear. Go for it Christian, those hairy bastards deserve it!
And yet he raises a serious problem for isolated vineyards. Often I am approached to assess a prospective site which would gladden the heart of a lonely wombat one scratch short of a dicking stick, and cause the local kangaroo population to pogo stick about the countryside in anticipation. Picture, if you will, a recently cleared block of land with newly burnt windrows of first growth timber playing naughts and crosses up and down the slope. Now there's nothing wrong with the northern facing slope, and the soils are free draining, moderately fertile and friable: in short a site and soil type perfectly suited to vineyards, "hole dicking vombats", and pogo sticking kangaroos.
However, the very isolation of the site, completely surrounded as it usually is by bush makes it an ideal holiday home for our furry tourist friends in need of a spot of rest and recreation. Now all the viticultural textbooks make prominent mention of the problems posed by frost and poor soil drainage. They even spend a fair amount of time discussing the potential losses major weed or fungal infections can cause. But check out "vombat damage", or "kangaroo shenanigans" or even "arnimarles" in the index of your expensive viticultural textbook, and see what you come up with.
You may as well be growing vines in Denmark.

Sedimentology and Sequence Stratigraphic Response of Paralic Deposits to Changes in Accommodation: Predicting Reservoir Architecture, Book Cliffs, Utah
Take a seven day journey across east-central Utah through the Upper Cretaceous strata in the Book Cliffs to explore outcrops that demonstrate the 3D reservoir architecture of marginal marine strata. These strata were deposited by a variety of depositional settings ranging from fluvial to incised valley to shoreface and deltaic. This field seminar will help demonstrate how well log data can be used to predict reservoir geometries at both the exploration and production scales. Lead by, Keith W. Shanley a consulting geologist with The Discovery Group and Mike Boyles a Geologist with Shell Global Solutions, will share their many years of experience and expertise to help participants learn and discover more on marine reservoir systems and the aspects involved with the settings of exploration and production. Join us September 4-11 | in Grand Junction, CO. For more information: Sedimentology and Sequence Stratigraphic Response
*Space for this field trip is limited and spots are filling fast. Register before August 6th and take advantage of Early Bird pricing.
Who Should Attend
Geologists, geophysicists and reservoir engineers working marginal marine reservoir systems in exploration and production settings. Lectures cover all the concepts necessary for non-geologists to benefit greatly from the course. Geologists often wish that their reservoir engineer had also attended.
Upon completion of this workshop, participants will:
- Be able to understand detailed facies analysis within fluvial, estuarine, shoreface, and shallow marine deposits.
- Be able to use parasequence stacking patterns to predict reservoir sand body occurrences.
- Be exposed to a consistent subsurface methodology to recognize sequence boundary unconformities, marine flooding surfaces, parasequence stacking patterns, and reservoir distribution within a sequence stratigraphic framework, resulting in a more robust subsurface stratigraphy.
- Be familiar with sequence stratigraphic concepts and be able to apply those concepts to their exploration and production assignments.
We illustrate through the use of spectacular outcrops, subsurface datasets, and stratigraphic modeling how these systems tracts and key surfaces (flooding surfaces and sequence boundaries) may be recognized. The outcrops have almost complete exposure of over 500 m of strata in both depositional strike and dip sections that extend for over 200 km. Well logs and cores from the nearby oil and gas wells provide the opportunity to learn how to recognize outcrop relationships in more traditional subsurface datasets. This field seminar demonstrates how well log and core data can be used to predict reservoir geometries at both the exploration and production scales.
During the seminar, a practical approach of using sequence stratigraphic concepts is developed through the use of lectures, computer modeling, outcrop exposures and is reinforced through subsurface exercises. Field observations and data sets drawn from a variety of subsurface examples are used to develop understanding of vertical facies relationships that can be used to predict subsurface reservoir architecture in a variety of basin settings. At the end of the course, participants will have an understanding of deltaic and fluvial facies and the nature of larger scale stratigraphic variations within these deposits. Participants will be able to use these facies relationships to understand stratal stacking patterns that can be used to estimate lateral extent of reservoir facies. Participants will learn a process of how to use subsurface data to gain an understanding of depositional systems and key sequence stratigraphic surfaces to assist in either exploration or production.

Today, Professor Kelly has extended the hotspot for all Victorian Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Greater Melbourne for the purpose of Commonwealth support until 11:59 pm on 21 October 2021.
The continued occurrence of cases in the community and movement of active cases poses an exposure risk across these areas.
Professor Kelly reminds people in Victoria to continue to follow their local Health Department directions and to book their vaccinations.
About hotspots for Commonwealth support
Declaring a hotspot for Commonwealth support enables the Commonwealth to:
- provide personal protective equipment (PPE) from the National Medical Stockpile
- support aged care facilities, including by providing PPE and the single site workforce supplement, and integrating an aged care response centre into the Public Health Emergency Operations Centre
- provide help with contact tracing
- offer testing to those with no symptoms via GP-led respiratory clinics
- reprioritise vaccine supplies, if required
- offer the COVID-19 Disaster Payment* to eligible workers
- offer access to two telehealth consultation items through the Medicare Benefits Schedule.
- provide support for childcare services, including additional allowable absences, gap fee waivers and support payments, if other eligibility criteria are met.
*The COVID-19 Disaster Payment will continue to be available in Commonwealth Declared Hotspots. When the state reaches 70% full vaccination of the adult population (16+), recipients will need to reapply weekly. When an 80% vaccination rate is reached, the temporary payment will step down over a period of two weeks. For more information please visit the Services Australia website.

The heat is always on in the Ultimate Recipe Showdown kitchens, but it got even hotter this week with the Hot & Spicy competition. The contestants’ fiery flavors spanned the globe, from Thai chicken soup to Indonesian salad to Mexican tacos.
Once again, we sat down with Katherine Alford, VP of Food Network Test Kitchen and veteran URS judge, to get her tips on cooking (and eating) spicy foods.
FN Dish: Is a dish ever “too spicy” for you? Were you worried at all that one of the contestants might overdo the heat in this round?
Katherine Alford: Yes, a dish can be too spicy, if it’s hot just for the sake of being hot and taking your head off. The best spicy food has more than just incendiary heat. Even dishes that use habaneros, the hottest chile, should be balanced to play up its fruity quality. A good hot and spicy dish should have enough going on so that the heat is part of a larger taste.
FN Dish: The dishes in this round represented many diverse cuisines. What are some of the best international cuisines for spicy food lovers to experiment with?
KA: Of course the first that comes to mind is Mexican, as well as a wide range of Asian cuisines such as Szechuan, Vietnamese and Thai, Indian…or Indonesian like our runner-up. But what is interesting is that spices and chiles can be found in many cuisines…one of my favorite peppers is the Aleppo pepper that is used in Turkish and Lebanese food. It’s smoky, almost meaty, and it packs a punch.

There is a clue in this statement of yours:
However, it does work with Chromium
The problem is not due to Ubuntu 11.10 but the other web browser that you want to use to listen to this Internet radio station.
When I try to access the same station using Chromium iheartradio.com blocks me because I do not live in the USA.
When I try using Firefox the program freezes (window greys out) due to using all available system memory and some more of swap memory. (I used System Monitor to check this). Future updates of Firefox might rectify this.
I use Radio Tray. It is in the Ubuntu Software Centre. I works well with Unit. It puts an icon in the top panel (an app-indicator). You can use it change stations. Right now I am listening to Heartland Public Radio (playing Roger Miller - Dang me). I am listening to an American Internet Radio Station without needing a web browser. It must be better.
You need the Internet address of the station's radio stream. You create a new station using that address in the Radio Tray Preferences>Configure Radios option.
The address for Heartland Public Radio is http://hpr1.hpr.org. The address for Country108 is http://tuner.country108.com:80.
I give you these as an example of what to look for. I cannot give the address of the stream for KNRS because I cannot play that station. If you find out the internet address of the KNRS radio stream then you might be able to use Radio Tray to play it. Either that or use Chromium.

Earlier today it was revealed that highly ranked UK middleweight Scott Askham (15-4) signed a three-fight contract with KSW.
The 29-year-old fought six times for the UFC where he registered two first round KO finishes, one of which earned him ‘Performance of the Night’ bonus. Following two back to back decision losses he was released from the promotion earlier this year. The former BAMMA champ then bounced back with decision win over fellow UK fighter and UFC vet Luke Barnatt this past September.
Now Askham and his loyal fans, known as the ‘Askham Army’, will come to the KSW arena. He is expected to make his promotional debut in early 2018 and no doubt he will have his eye on working towards the KSW middleweight title currently held by MMA legend Mamed Khalidov.
KSW co-owner Martin Lewandowski spoke of his excitement at the addition of Askham to the KSW roster: “I have been a fan of Scott for a long time now. He has so many memorable finishes throughout his career, his striking is just so dangerous. Over the years in KSW we have had some legendary fights at middleweight and I am sure Scott will create more exciting moments in this middleweight division.”
The KSW middleweight division also received an injection after former champ Michal Materla (25-5) returned after a lengthy layoff and finished UFC vet Paulo Thiago with punches at KSW 40 this past October in Dublin, Ireland.
KSW’s next event – KSW 41 – will take place December 23rd from Katowice, Poland and will feature welterweight champ Borys Mankowski (19-6-1) vs. top P4P South African fighter and two-weight EFC champ Dricus du Plessis (11-1) in the main event and an exciting heavyweight co-main event between infamous rapper Popek Monster (3-2) and famous Polish actor Tomasz Oswiecinski (0-0).
Also on the card Kleber Koike Erbst (22-4-1) will defend his featherweight title against the popular Artur Sowinski (18-8), Olympic medalist Damian Janikowski (1-0) faces former KSW champion Antoni Chmielewski (32-16), and a whole host of top talent.
KSW 41 will be available to view live around the world via online PPV at www.KSWTV.com.

Happiest Minds Leveraging Cloud to Help Firms Modernise Content
First things first. Before you conjure up irrelevant perceptions around the name, Happiest Minds is no charity or a medical company. It is a Bengaluru-based IT services firm founded by former Mindtree Chairman Ashok Soota.
Started about eight years ago with the aim of putting "people" at the centre of everything and creating happy atmosphere for its clients, Happiest Minds reported record profitability in the 2019 financial year with organic growth of 16 per cent and the company gives some of the credit for its rise to IBM Cloud.
In its digital business services, IBM Cloud has powered the company's Digital mCaaS (managed content as a service) Platform through which it launched a new software-as-a-service (SaaS) business product for its clients globally.
This platform is used to modernise and digitise content of its clients -- most of which are research firms -- and create new revenue streams for them using digital engagement capabilities.
"For example, if you read a report -- whether on a website or in a PDF format -- the content is likely to be static in nature. To change that we work with the clients and help them make their content modernised and bring in a lot of digital features that can help them engage better with their clients," Shiva Vittal, Director, Digital Business Platforms, Happiest Minds, told IANS.
"Our clients are mostly interested in learning how their content is being consumed. They would like to engage users through a lot of interactivity. With PDF, it is not possible. So we provide a lot of interactive capabilities and good security," Vittal said, adding that its clients using the mCaaS platform are spread across the world.
Happiest Minds employs around 2,000 people and has offices in several countries, including the US.
Vittal said there is hardly any competition to its content modernisation services, although two boutique companies offering similar services have sprang up in the US.
"While the margin of profit in traditional IT services is around 30 per cent, in the managed Content as a Service, the profit margin could be much greater," he said.
Happiest Minds is fully powered by IBM Cloud.
"Amazon is very strong in infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) but I don't think anybody in the world (as of 2019) is as strong as IBM when it comes to platform-as-a-service (PaaS).
"The Cloud Foundry capabilities help us to very easily amalgamate all our activities. Everything we do is on Cloud, not on premise," Vittal added.
IBM Cloud helps the platform scale, manage traffic during peak consumption time, offer secure services and access to various applications.
According to Vikas Arora, IBM Cloud and Cognitive Software Leader, IBM India/South Asia, with the help of IBM Cloud, Happiest Minds has been able to develop a SaaS-based digital content brokering platform, "helping customers effectively solve the challenge of content consumption by digitizing modernizing and creating newer revenue streams".
Besides its digital business services, Happiest Minds also offers infrastructure management and security services and product engineering services.

I picked up this little kit ages ago now, but such is the state of my “products still to try” drawer, that I didn’t get round to trying it until this weekend. I don’t know about anyone else, but for me, face masks and the like fall into that category of “things that are fabulous, but which I never seem to find time for”, hence the delay in reviewing this one.
Anyway, Saturday rolled around, and I found myself with a bit of extra time, so I got out the kit and marvelled at the little mini versions of some of Burt’s Bees popular products, namely: the Pore-Refining Mask, Citrus Facial Scrub, and Orange Essence Facial Cleanser.
The pore refining mask was the product I was most interested in, but I decided to do this properly, so I washed my face with the facial cleanser (orangey: very orangey. In a good way, though.) and then applied the Citrus Facial Scrub. Both products met with my approval: as you probably know, Burt’s Bees pride themselves on their all-natural products, and both of these use orange oil as their main ingredient. The cleanser in particular was lovely to use, and the scent is definitely of REAL oranges, as opposed to that “fake orange” scent found in so many things these days. Both products were also very gentle: I’d somehow expected something based around orange oil to feel slightly astringent, but nope, not a bit of it.
On to the pore-refining mask, then, and I must confess that I was slightly perplexed by this. As part of this particular kit, you get one small sachet of powder, which you have to mix with water in the little ceramic bowl that’s also provided until it turns into a paste. (The instructions state that you can also mix it with various other liquids to help with particular skin conditions, but naturally I didn’t have any of those other liquids in stock at the time, so I stuck to good ol’ water) Me being me, I found it a little tricky to gauge the right amount of water to use – I’m pretty sure my “paste” was a whole lot runnier than it was supposed to be – and it seemed a bit of a waste of packaging to have a ceramic bowl just for one sachet of powder, but I guess if you decided to purchase the full-sized version of this, the bowl would come in handy. (Mine is currently sitting all forlorn in the bathroom, gathering dust). It’s just a minor point, but I think I’d rather be able to just buy the product already mixed, so rather than having to faff around with the mixing bowl and powder (and, er, making a bit of a mess of the bathroom in the process, to be honest), I could just apply it direct from a tub, or tube, or something. I am very lazy, though, so that could just be me.
Once the mask was applied, however, all of this was forgotten. Even although my paste was very runny, it dried in quickly, and I don’t think my slapdash mixing skills made much of a difference. This is made from French green clay, so, as you would expect, while you’re wearing it, you’ll look a bit like a clay statue. (I always live in fear of someone arriving at the door during this stage of face-mask use. They almost always do, too.) I could feel it starting to get to work right away, with that familiar, skin-tightening, “Oh my God, I think my face just cracked” feeling you get from clay-based masks. I actually quite enjoy this sensation: it makes me feel like the mask is definitely doing something, which is always reassuring.
As per the instructions, I left it on for about 15 minutes before washing it off with warm water. My skin was left feeling smooth and slightly tingly: I don’t really see a huge difference in pore size, but I think that kind of thing is pretty hard to gauge, to be honest, unless the difference is dramatic.(And if you know of a product that makes a truly dramatic difference to the size of your pores in just 15 minutes, tell me and I will buy it.), but I was left with a fresh faced, wholesome kind of glow, and the feeling that my skin had definitely had a good old clean. Four days on, I haven’t suffered any of the outbreaks which can be the result of this kind of treatment either, so that’s another point in its favour.

"But their eyes were holden that they should not know Him."—Luke 24:16
The disciples ought to have known Jesus, they had heard His voice so often, and gazed upon that marred face so frequently, that it is wonderful they did not discover Him. Yet is it not so with you also? You have not seen Jesus lately. You have been to His table, and you have not met Him there. You are in a dark trouble this evening, and though He plainly says, "It is I, be not afraid," yet you cannot discern Him.
Alas! our eyes are holden. We know His voice; we have looked into His face; we have leaned our head upon His bosom, and yet, though Christ is very near us, we are saying "O that I knew where I might find Him!" We should know Jesus, for we have the Scriptures to reflect His image, and yet how possible it is for us to open that precious book and have no glimpse of the Wellbeloved!
Dear child of God, are you in that state? Jesus feedeth among the lilies of the word, and you walk among those lilies, and yet you behold Him not. He is accustomed to walk through the glades of Scripture, and to commune with His people, as the Father did with Adam in the cool of the day, and yet you are in the garden of Scripture, but cannot see Him, though He is always there. And why do we not see Him? It must be ascribed in our case, as in the disciples', to unbelief. They evidently did not expect to see Jesus, and therefore they did not know Him.
To a great extent in spiritual things we get what we expect of the Lord. Faith alone can bring us to see Jesus. Make it your prayer, "Lord, open Thou mine eyes, that I may see my Saviour present with me." It is a blessed thing to want to see Him; but oh! it is better far to gaze upon Him. To those who seek Him He is kind; but to those who find Him, beyond expression is He dear!

I am a big fan of the show “Dirty Jobs.” As the owner of a drain-cleaning franchise, I know the trades offer tremendous opportunities for the men and women who do the work that others don’t want to or can’t do.
So, I was intrigued when I was approached by a young man named Gil during a recent seminar. He said, “Plumbing has taken me around the world, and helped me create a life I never imagined.”
Wow. Of course, after the show, I called Gil to find out more about him and what got him interested in plumbing.
Gil said, “My mom and dad were from Puerto Rico. We lived in a Spanish-speaking community, and I didn’t speak English until I started school. It was a tough part of town and my career prospects weren’t great. My dad suggested that I get into plumbing because I could get a solid, high-paying job.
“That’s where I met Kevin Kelly, the vo-tech teacher. Mr. Kelly was very strict – ‘old school’ in his approach. He was also kind and fair. He saw that I had mechanical talent and gave me a lot of encouragement. He believed in me, and at age 14, I decided to become a plumber.
“My friends gave me a lot of grief. There was this stigma about plumbing. I carried that around like a chip on my shoulder. Only it was much bigger than that. It fueled my decision to not only become a great plumber, but also to use plumbing to create an incredible life. I made a commitment to take my career, and the trade, to the highest level.
“I got married, to the love of my life, Nikki. I embraced learning and becoming a skilled tradesman. Life was good.
“Then another experience impacted me in a powerful way. In 2005, I went on a mission trip with my church to Thailand. We helped deliver medicine to people in areas that were hard to get to. The people we met, they had little access to potable water, and no sewer system. I thought, ‘I can help a lot of people with the skills I have.’”
Gil started Googling for opportunities. He searched “plumbing in Australia” and found an ad for a company called Raytheon, which was doing a plumbing project in Antarctica. You know how it goes … you start searching for Australia and end up in Antarctica!
The ad made the job sound really hard, in nearly impossible working conditions, and only the brightest and toughest plumbers would be considered. Of course, Gil was interested, and with Nikki’s enthusiastic support, he applied.
Gil was one of only seven plumbers from hundreds of applicants who made the cut and reported for work at the McMurdo Station on the south tip of Ross Island. After the five-month project, Gil had the travel adventure bug.
He searched the internet for more adventures. He found Hydromissions.org. Hydromissions is a Christian organization that provides access to safe drinking water around the world. With this group, Gil has traveled to all seven continents and delivered potable water to thousands of people in dozens of countries.
“I always love a challenge. I want to go to the moon. Nikki likes it when I say I make pipe dreams come true. She is right there with me. We have a son, Jaden, who is 10 years old, and loves baseball. I just got back from Botswana. I tell Jaden, ‘There is this whole world that I am seeing all because of my ability to run and fix pipes.’”
How nice to meet Gil and hear his story. Here’s to dirty job adventures.

Lakeridge track teams shouldnt miss a step
Just how much a host of newcomers improve will hold the key to Lakeridge High School's boys track team's fortunes in 2008.
'One of our team strengths is that we have a preponderance of athletes new to track and field this year,' said Coach Joseph Schloetter. 'While this will make coaching more difficult on the experience side of things, it does give our team a chance to really improve over the course of the season.'
With so much youth on the squad, a couple of returning standouts will be especially counted on this season.
Dave Marks, a senior, should be a standout in the 3,000 meters. He is a hungry athlete, because illness caused him to miss the 2007 Three Rivers League championship meet.
Sprinter Billy Mitchell, a junior, is definitely among the TRL's best.
He was second in the league in both the 100 and 200 meter sprints last year.
The newcomer brigade is led by Alex Anderson, a junior cross-country runner who is in his first year of running track. Anderson is a talent, having placed seventh in the league cross country meet.
Jimmy Trumbull, a junior, has the potential to be an explosive high jumper. He has shown plenty of hops as a basketball player.
Sophomores Max Heninger and Robbie Magill should have much impact on team fortunes in '08. Heninger will run the 400 and 800 meters, while Magill will be a fixture in the sprint relays and long jump.
Now in his fourth season as coach, Schloetter hopes his tracksters will find their strongest events as they progress throughout this season.
'Most of our early season meets will be spent learning what works for the newcomers to compete at the highest level,' Schloetter said. 'For our returnees, we will spend the first part of the season training, as the district meet and state meets are our ultimate goals.'
Meanwhile the girls team is coming off a season in which it finished third in state. The team graduated state champion sprinter Mandy White but, surprisingly, is expected to be nearly as good this year.
Most notably, Samantha Berryman returns for her senior campaign. Berryman is one of the most gifted and versatile athletes in the school's history and can almost literally do well in every event.
Berryman will specialize in the jumps but is also a very fast hurdler and can be used in the sprints as well. She will be attending the University of Arizona next year but has her sights set on winning her first individual state chamiponship this spring.
'She's pretty focused this year. She knows it's her last chance,' Pacer coach Ken James said.
Another versatile athlete for Lakeridge is Lexi Ross who took fourth in state in the high jump last season. Ross is also expected to be one of the best shot-putters in the league and, while recovering from a back injury, she will be used in the sprints early in the season.
'That's a pretty unique combination but that just goes to show how great of an athlete she is,' James said.
The Pacers also boast two of the best javelin throwers in the state but the trick is advancing both of them to state in such a competitive league.
'We could have two of the three best girls in the state but we just have to get them through districts,' James said.
Andrea Hopkins took second in state last year as a sophomore and senior Kai Schmidt could also earn a spot in Eugene in the javelin this year.
Michaela McNairy will be the team's top runner in the 400 and junior Jenna Horton, who was a strong 400 runner last year, will move up to the 800.
Lakeridge is also strong in the distance events with Zoe Newman giving the Pacers some depth in the 1500 and the 3000.
'She's improved tremendously and that's been huge for the team,' James said.
Running along with Berryman in the hurdles will be Stacy Sawin who James believes has a chance to qualify for state in each of those events.
Filling in at the sprint events for White will be Sara Hursey who is a strong competitor in the 100, 200 and on the short relay.
And, along with Lakeridge's other talented throwers, Christina Bogdan could be among the league's best in the discus.
This year there are 60 girls on the team's roster, one of the best turnouts in the program's history and James believes that the Pacers should be near the top of the league again.
And, if the team stays healthy, it could make some noise at state once again.
'I think once we get into it, we're going to be in good shape. We should stack up pretty well and it's pretty exciting,' James said.

Happy New Year MMM readers! 2014 has been a great year so far!
Here’s what we expect in the year ahead.
Senator Cory Booker will narrowly defeat Assembly Minority Leader Jon Bramnick in the U.S. Senate election. Bramnick will be the instant front runner for the GOP gubernatorial nomination in the 2016 special election.
Marlboro Mayor Jonathan Hornik will be a speaker at numerous Democratic Clubs throughout New Jersey and will establish himself as a major fundraiser for Democratic candidates on the municipal and county levels. Hornik will proclaim that the only thing he is running for is reelection as Marlboro’s mayor in 2015.
The 11 incumbent New Jersey Congressmen running for reelection will win. The Republican nominee in the third congressional district seat currently held by Congressman Jon Runyon, who is not seeking a third term, will be elected. Tommy DeSeno will write a column complaining about gerrymandered districts.
Senate President Steve Sweeney will keep picking on Senate Minority Leader Tom Kean, Jr.
Governor Chris Christie will have more public appearances in Iowa, South Carolina, Texas and Florida, combined, than he will have Town Hall Meetings in New Jersey.
Anna Little will seek the Republican nomination for Congress in the 6th district, hoping for a third shot at Congressman Frank Pallone. Little will lose at the Monmouth and Middlesex nominating conventions and wage a primary. The Bayshore Tea Party Group will sit out the 6th district primary, citing their commitment to Dr. Alieta Eck’s campaign in the 12th district. Eck will be unopposed for the 12th district nomination to take on Congressman Rush Holt.
Howell Councilman Bob Walsh will campaign for a Monmouth County Freeholder nomination, but withdraw his candidacy prior to the Republican nominating convention. Freeholders Lillian Burry and Gary Rich will be nominated for reelection by acclamation.
Larry Luttrell and Giuseppe “Joe” Grillo will be the Democratic nominees for Monmouth County Freeholder. The Democrats will once again attempt to make the Andrew Lucas farm deal and “Club Monmouth” the major issue of the campaign. Luttrell and Grillo will find that Burry and Rich are not as reticent about counter-punching against negative attacks as the 2013 Republican team, Sheriff Shaun Golden and Freeholders Tom Arnone and Serena DiMaso were last year.
Belmar Mayor Matt Doherty will shave his beard and be reelected.
Red Bank Councilman Ed Zipprich, who came in last in the 11th Legislative District Assembly race last year, will challenge Mayor Pat Menna rather than seek reelection to the council. Menna will avoid a primary and run for reelection either as an Republican or as an Independent supported by both Democrats and Republicans.
John Moor will be elected Mayor of Asbury Park. triCityNews publisher Dan Jacobson will take credit for Moor’s victory.
Long Branch Mayor Adam Schneider will be reelected for a seventh term.
The Asbury Park Press will endorse Booker for U.S. Senate and Democrats Luttrell and Grillo for Monmouth County Freeholders.
What do you think will happen?

Usage of Hydrogels for Cardiac Software Polymers such alginate, fibrin, or combinations of both have been the most commonly used materials, owing to their gelation properties for percutaneous delivery. Hydrogels by itself can offer mechanised support for the infarcted center, and more oddly enough, have the ability to bring cells towards the broken myocardium. A substantial improvement purchase SYN-115 in MSC retention and viability when they are injected in conjunction with hydrogels continues to be widely noted (evaluated in ). Appropriately, within a rat MI model, intramyocardially shipped BM-MSC survived much longer when implemented using a fibrin glue hydrogel purchase SYN-115 than when implemented by itself. As a result, cardiac function improved, and recovery correlated with a decrease in the scar tissue size . Oddly enough, collagen hydrogels have already been assayed to take care of MI also. Actually, collagen was discovered to be more advanced than fibrin being a cell carrier in another rat model. Though both polymers elevated cardiac ADSC retention Also, cell success was higher with collagen . Within a different strategy somewhat, Yu et al. customized alginate microspheres to be able to allow purchase SYN-115 MSC encapsulation. The next injection in to the broken myocardium of immunocompetent rats rendered excellent results about the cell survival price . Corroborating the efficiency of the strategy, better retention and healing aftereffect of BM-MSC was proven when subcutaneously injected within a rat model also, after their prior encapsulation in alginate . The promising experimental findings observed with this biomaterial prompted researchers to test their clinical reliability. For this reason, acellular alginate was tested in the phase-I PRESERVATION-I (Prevention of Remodelling of the Ventricle and Congestive Heart Failure After Acute Myocardial Infarction) trial with encouraging results, since these confirmed the safety and feasibility associated with its use. A clinical trial combining alginate with stem cells is currently ongoing . 8. Cardiac Patches and Cellularized Scaffolds In the case of scaffolds, collagen has Rat monoclonal to CD4.The 4AM15 monoclonal reacts with the mouse CD4 molecule, a 55 kDa cell surface receptor. It is a member of the lg superfamily,primarily expressed on most thymocytes, a subset of T cells, and weakly on macrophages and dendritic cells. It acts as a coreceptor with the TCR during T cell activation and thymic differentiation by binding MHC classII and associating with the protein tyrosine kinase, lck been extensively used, due to its high biocompatibility, effective cell adhesion, and low immunogenicity, although other natural or synthetic polymers such alginate, gelatin, decellularized bovine pericardium, fibrin, or polycaprolactone (PCL), have already been examined to create cardiac areas [35 also,42]. In another of the initial experiments completed with cardiac scaffolds, a noticable difference in cardiac function was proven after implantation of the combinational patch of collagen type I, Matrigel?, and rat skeletal muscle tissue cells on rat infarcted hearts . Carrying out a equivalent strategy in another rat model, MSCs had been embedded right into a collagen-I matrix to create a cardiac patch, that was sutured towards the infarcted heart subsequently. Greater engraftment from the cells in the infarct area could be noticed at seven days. Interestingly, a substantial improvement in cardiac function and anterior wall structure thickening was also noted later than four weeks after matrix implantation, in spite of the fact that cells had not been detected at 4 weeks, thus suggesting that long-term cell engraftment or survival is not required for MSC to exert therapeutic effects . On the other hand, an designed ultra-thin collagen type-1 scaffold was seeded with autologous ADSC and subsequently used in a MI porcine model with interesting results. ADSC engraftment was much greater when they were injected in combination with the scaffold support. Furthermore, the animals treated with the cellularized patch showed a significant, correlated increase in LVEF in comparison with the control groupings, i.e., pets administered either the acellularized patch or the ADSC alone intramyocardially. Finally, positive remodeling from the myocardium and improved vascularization were confirmed also. A different strategy contains creating areas with decellularized rabbit pericardium, that have been seeded with ADSC and lastly found in a rat afterwards.

Mars begins his 'out of bound' trip through the Sign of Gemini(until June4) and then takes his wildness into Cancer.
Waaay back in 1976, the movie,'Network,'gave us the line," I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it any longer.' This, my friends is a rather perfect line for this unusual Mars cycle. Lots of folks will simply leave, walk away. It may be a work situation, toxic friendship, family or relationships.
Yes, we will see anger rise. In the Sign of Gemini, road rage, sharper words and more unfortunate, neurotic ways of expressing Mars energy but we will see lots of innovation.
This Mars will embolden and empower those who may have been stuck or felt dis-empowered. People, who usually would not take or initiate bold actions/ changes will do so.
Aries, Gemini and Cancer are the headliners in this cycle.

The path to entrepreneurship can make you wealthy in a short time. However, most people assume that business people only earn money by selling things or services. The reality is that businesses also build another form of passive income in the form of their assets. As you build the business, you also grow its brand as well as its other assets. You can sell the business as well as sell the products made by the business. If you want to unlock the full wealth potential or move on to make another deal, then you will find yourself getting to a selling arrangement. Here are the tips for selling your medium-sized company.
Put the Paperwork in Order
Businesses have to file tax returns and meet certification requirements for different regulations. Consider selling your business after you take care of these documentation processes and make sure you are current with any due payments. You will end up providing more value to buyers, which makes them likely to purchase your firm at the right price.
List Your Business for Sale
It would be insane trying to sell a business and not advertising it or listing it at directories where people go to find a business. Get on flipping sites for business in your area or on the internet and provide descriptive content about your business location, service or products, and the money it makes. If you do this part, then you are most likely to land more than one offer, and that gives you the potential to earn more money on the same deal than you would if you dealt only with one prospect.
Get Options on Valuation
You should be working with more than one valuation service for your Unternehmensverkauf. The reason for this recommendation is to increase your chances of getting a fair value. Above all, you want to have the facts right regarding the worth of your business so that you can negotiate appropriate based on what the potential buyers will find in the market and the unique value proposition from you. At the same time, the valuation must tie both to the future business income and its current income status.
If it seems hard selling the entire business, you can convert it into an equity sale, where you bring in some active or non-active shareholders to the business. You will need legal arrangements with your attorney to make sure the transfer of equity is valid. Laws provide for such transactions. This option is good given that it leaves you with the potential to sell more of the business in the future when the business grows. At the same time, the equity you dispose at present will be sufficient for meeting your existing money needs.
Selling a business will take time and is not recommended when you are tight on cash. Good business for selling is one that continues to run effectively and address its daily challenges as though it is not up for sale. Every buyer is looking for a good deal and a bargain. The bargain might be in the form of a guaranteed smooth operation and income potential, or an outright low price with easy to fix problems in a business.

In our reading group, we discussed a landmark paper of Paul Meehl’s, “Why summaries of research on psychological theories are often unintepretable” (1990). The paper ends with a very strong statement (p. 242), written by Meehl in italics for extra emphasis:
We should maturely and sophisticatedly accept the fact that some perfectly legitimate “empirical” scientific theories may not be strongly testable at a given time, and that it is neither good scientific strategy nor a legitimate use of the taxpayer’s dollar to pretend otherwise.
This statement should bring up all kinds of stages of grief in psychological researchers, including anger, denial, guilt, and depression. Are we really just wasting taxpayers’ money on studying things that are not studyable (yet)?
We sometimes have ideas, theories, or models, which cannot be tested given our current measurement devices. However, research is a process of incremental progress, and in order to make progress, we need to first understand if something works or not, and if not, why it doesn’t work. If we close our eyes towards all of the things that don’t work, we cannot progress. Even worse, if we find out that something doesn’t work, and don’t make any effort to publicise our results, other researchers are likely to get the same idea, at some point in time, and start using their resources in order to also find out that it doesn’t work.
To illustrate with a short example: For some reason or another, I decided to look at individual differences in the size of psycholinguistic marker effects. With the help of half a dozen colleagues, we have collected data from approximately 100 participants, tested individually in 1-hour sessions. The results so far suggest that this approach doesn’t work: there are no individual differences in psycholinguistic marker effects.
Was I the first one to find this out? Apparently not. When sharing my conclusion with some older colleagues, they said: “Well, I could have told you that. I have tried to use this approach for many years with the same results.” Could I have known this? Did I waste the time of my colleagues and the participants in pursuing something that everyone already knows? I think not. At least myself and my colleagues were unaware of any potential problems with this approach. And finding out that it doesn’t work opens interesting new questions: Why doesn’t it work? Does it work in some other populations? Can we make it work?
All of these questions are important, even if the answer is that there is no hope to make this approach work. However, in the current academic reward system, studying things that may never work is not a good strategy. If one wants publications, a better strategy is to drop a study like a hot potato once you realise that it will not give a significant result: throw it into your file drawer and move on to something else, something that will be more likely to give you a significant p-value somewhere. This is waste of taxpayer’s money.

Paul Brazill writes unflichingly realistic gritty hardboiled fiction that mixes the laconic with astute cultural observation. Always entertaining, you can count on a great read. He has a new one out, and he describes it as a rampage across London. Paul met me at The Slaughterhouse where we talked about Cold London Blues and his experience writing as an exile.
Here’s the blurb: A killer priest is on the rampage across London and an egotistical Hollywood action movie star is out for revenge when his precious comic book collection is stolen. Meanwhile, gangster Marty Cook’s dreams of going legit swiftly turn pear shaped when one of his bouncers accidentally kills one of his salsa club’s regular customers. Razor sharp wisecracks, gaudy characters and even gaudier situations abound in Cold London Blues, a violent and pitch-black Brit Grit comedy of errors.
Tell us about your memories of London and how has Poland changed them?
There’s been a lot of booze under the bridge since I lived in London. However …
Flashbacks: walking down Abbey Road, across the famous Beatles zebra crossing, and seeing Dave Vanian – vampire- esque singer with The Damned – driving a hearse. Shortly after, I was in a warehouse which had a room full of sump oil and a shark floating in formaldehyde. … a drunken Bert Kwok playing air-piano in a Soho club … a tall man carrying a massive white cross down Kensington High Street … The Buena Vista Social Club in Hyde Park, the beer tent only sold Pimms or champagne … eating a chocolate covered scorpion … Astrid Gilberto at The Jazz Café and Ennio Morricone at the Barbican … a woman that was born in an orphanage and whose name on her birth certificate was just a number … Tracey Emin dancing to Stuck In The Middle with you at my friend’s memorial … and lots and lots of time travelling on the tube or on the bus … All seen through a shot glass darkly, of course.
How important is local culture and music to your writing?
The stuff I’ve written in the mythical Seatown- Kill Me Quick!, The Postman Cometh, Route 66 And All That, Who Killed Skippy? et al – are all very much based on growing up and living in the north east of England. There are lots of real people and situations in those yarns although they are viewed askew and through the haze of booze and a faulty memory.
What else is on the cards for you this year?
I’ve recently finished a follow up to Cold London Blues and Guns Of Brixton. It’s called A Rainy Night In Soho and hopefully it will see the light of day at some time.
I have a few books that I’d previously self-published are coming out via Renato Bratkovic’s Artizan publishing. The first – Exiles: An Outsider Anthology – is out now and includes a story from your good self. Here’s the blurb:
A powerful Noir short story collection edited by the Bukowski of Noir, Paul D. Brazill. Exiles features 26 outsiders-themed stories by some of the greatest crime and noir writers, K. A. Laity, Chris Rhatigan, Steven Porter, Patti Abbott, Ryan Sayles, Gareth Spark, Pamila Payne, Paul D. Brazill, Jason Michel, Carrie Clevenger, David Malcolm, Nick Sweeney, Sonia Kilvington, Rob Brunet, James A. Newman, Tess Makovesky, Chris Leek, McDroll, Renato Bratkovič, Walter Conley, Marietta Miles, Aidan Thorn, Benjamin Sobieck, Graham Wynd, Richard Godwin, Colin Graham, and an introduction by Heath Lowrance.
Thank you Paul for an informative interview.
Paul D. Brazill is the author of The Last Laugh, Guns of Brixton, Cold London Blues, and Kill Me Quick! He was born in England and lives in Poland. His writing has been translated into Italian, Polish, German and Slovene. He has been published in various magazines and anthologies, including The Mammoth Books of Best British Crime. His blog is here.

Lena Dunham secretly dyed her hair red after “Girls” ended, and here’s what she learned
This year has held some big changes for Lena Dunham, and it seems like she wanted to make some big style changes to reflect that. To mark the ending of her show Girls, Lena dyed her hair red.
But wait, you say. Didn’t Girls end in April? Lena managed to keep her hair change private, which is kind of a miracle in the age where anyone with social media can become the makeshift paparazzi. Hair changes can be an emotional journey, as we all know. Lena chose to reflect on that journey with an essay published in Vogue.
The essay covers a wide range of topics and references many different stylish redheads.
But the main reason Lena wanted the change is because she’s had a hard year of health issues and work.
She went on to elaborate even more.
The final look at her redhead transformation is stunning.
So, did going red give Lena the gumption she was sure it would?
It seems like the answer is a solid yes. Because she decided to cut all her hair off shortly after the transformation.
It’s nice to know we’re not the only ones who have deep emotional connections to our hair. Thanks for sharing, Lena!

Not nearly enough time or energy in one day to properly thank the men and women whom this day honors. Our Veterans. Among them I count my father, both of my grandfathers, my soon to be father-in-law, and many more. My father fought in Vietnam when he was still practically a kid. My grandfathers fought in WW2, one in the Pacific, the other in Europe. It’s hard to imagine what they had to face and to witness.
To all those who face and have faced atrocity and danger every day for the good of our country, we simply can’t thank you enough. Maybe some of you knew why you were fighting, maybe others simply fought because that’s what soldiers do. Whatever the reason, I hope you feel honored not just today, but every day. We have miles to go in regards to how we take care of our veterans, but hopefully at least today, today you feel the unending and unmitigated gratitude.
There is one particular veterans ceremony that I simply must mention here. Have you ever seen the Flag Retreat Ceremony at Disneyland? I know, you hear Disneyland and you might think of silly childish fun. I tell you what, it’s one of the most patriotic, reverent, and lovely experiences I have ever seen in regards to our men and women in service. Every time we are in the park during the day I try and catch it. I mention it here in case any of you have a trip planned in the near future; don’t miss it. It happens every day in the late afternoon. Bring tissues because I get teary-eyed Every. Single. Time.
To our Veterans. We salute you with endless love and gratitude. Today all of my thanks go to you.
See ya tomorrow.

Poland: “Islamic Rape of Europe” Magazine Cover Signals Rising Awareness of Racial Threat
And, although the articles do not mention them, Jews are very worried. If the rally described by the Independent below is any indication — they should be.
A POPULAR RIGHT-WING Polish newsweekly, wSieci or “The Network,” published a deeply provocative magazine cover this week. It shows a young blonde women, garbed loosely in the flag of the European Union, being groped by three men. Only the six swarthy arms and hands of the assailants are in view, but the message is clear and barely needs the brutal cover line: “The Islamic rape of Europe.”
According to the Daily Mail, the Polish magazine said it was focusing on “what the media and the Brussels elite are hiding from the citizens of Europe.” An editorial in its pages, entitled “Hell Europe,” inveighed against a culture of “tolerance and political correctness” that supposedly led to the grim scenes on New Year’s Eve in the German city of Cologne and other northern European town centers.
Groups of men, many apparently of Arab or North African descent, went on a shocking criminal rampage that led to hundreds of complaints to the police of rape, sexual harassment and other abuse. The incidents fed into an already growing backlash against European policies welcoming migrants and refugees, particularly an influx from war-torn Syria.
Sure, it’s just freedom of speech, I guess: “Islamic rape of Europe”, says a Polish magazine. pic.twitter.com/FGNJPzhIHk

It didn’t take Twitter users very long to spot the parallels. The Polish magazine’s rendition of a young white woman, violated by hairy, dark-skinned men, suggests especially to Jews, echoes of nationalist imagery of the mid-20th century.
See, for example, the poster in the tweet above of a World War II-era Italian fascist call to arms, showing a dark foreign soldier seizing a European woman. Or see the National-Socialist-era imagery in the tweet below of a scheming Jewish spider eyeing a blonde fräulein or a French colonial soldier groping another girl.
Apologies for the imagery. Final pic is of a current magazine cover in Poland, which reads “Islamic rape of Europe”. pic.twitter.com/OpV9cvf3c3

These are not isolated images. Following World War I, there was great consternation about the presence of French African troops occupying a defeated Germany.That occupation brought with it the sexual threat of rape and miscegenation by the African soldiers, and fanned white outrage on both sides of the Atlantic.
On a visit to Germany in 1920, the well-known British writer E.D. Morel lamented the presence of “thrusting barbarians — barbarians belonging to a race inspired by Nature…with tremendous sexual instincts — into the heart of Europe.” In 1921, 12,000 people rallied around Madison Square Garden in New York City and submitted a petition to Congress declaring “the Moral sense of the American people demands the immediate withdrawal of the uncivilized French Colored troops.”
Adolf Hitler, writing in Mein Kampf, raged at “the Jews who bring the Negro into the Rhineland, always with the same secret thought and clear aim of ruining the hated white race by the necessarily resulting bastardization, throwing it down from its cultural and political height, and himself rising to be its master.” …
In the past year, Poland has taken a dramatic turn, and its leading politicians have made loud and conspicuous statements on the threat posed by Syrian refugees.
An anti-refugee rally in the city of Wroclaw in November seemed to best capture the sort of populism on display. Thousands of protesters marched, denouncing an E.U. proposal that would see the country admit some 7,000 refugees. They chanted against Islam and migrants and for “God, Honor and Fatherland.”
And then they burnt an effigy — not of a Muslim or a refugee, but a Hasidic Jew wrapped in the flag of the European Union.

anyone interested in a mod that makes lockpicks, and top tier bags more durable? also vehicles.
i hated the thought of loosing my bag or vechicle more than the thought of being over burdoned.
DevKit is an upgraded BBC mod.
Improve your mods.
actually i could make it so that having the mechanic skill makes your vechicles wear out slower, because you know how to take care of them.

When restaurants closed and concerts were canceled last year, many people turned to outdoor activities to keep busy.
“2020 was record year for us out at the golf course as it was for probably every golf course in the country,” said Pinewood Country Club Owner Chip Bromann.
Bromann said golf was one of the activities people could stay busy with and safely social distance while still seeing people during the COVID-19 pandemic.
His Hazelhurst golf course saw a lot of people who had stepped away from golf pick it back up again.
“They pulled the clubs out of their garages, dusted them off and wanted to get back into it to get outside and keep active,” he said.
Bromann said he’s seen a big increase in memberships have been with younger generations.
“I think something with stimulus checks have to do with that too a little bit. Gave them an opportunity to get into golf and stay in it,” said Bromann.
Round of Golf & Related Sales Up
Golf Datatech is a company that tracks golf and sales surrounding it.
It found that rounds of golf played last year were up nearly 14-percent, the largest increase since the 1990s.
Equipment sales were also up about 10-percent.
Bromann said he’s feeling the impact of that. Orders of things like golf balls and socks are being delayed weeks or even months.
“We plan ahead each year. We order things in October/November for the following spring which we do quite a bit of, but once we sell out, then we try to reorder again. It’s been difficult to get those things. I’m hearing big shortages from golf clubs that people are buying online and all those types of materials. I can’t even find beer coolers right now,” he said.
Overall golf equipment sales surpassed 2-point-8 billion dollars in 2020.
That’s the third highest annual total of all-time, according to Golf Datatech.
Golfing Beyond the Pandemic
Now the big question for businesses that benefitted from that boom is ‘will people stick with it?’
This spring, businesses is up compared to most years. An early snow melt meant Pinewood could open a month earlier than last year.
Bromann said he thinks business will still be better than average this year, but not quite on par with last year as more things are opening back up.
“Now they’re a bit freer to go out and go to a restaurant, go to their bar, go to the neighborhood place,” said Bromann. “But they’re still getting out there for sure. But we’ll still have a pretty good year. I’m pretty positive of that.”
If people who have discovered or re-discovered their love of the game will keep at it years down the road is still an unknown.
But Bromann says getting to stick around starts when they walk in the door.
“You take care of them when they walk in the door and hopefully that carries over and that they have a good experience out on the golf course. That’s really where it is. They’re coming out here on their own free will. I just have to make sure they’re having a good time and that the golf course is in as good of shape as it can be at this point so they enjoy themselves,” said Bromann.

A change in one's breakfast routine may provide benefits for the management of type 2 diabetes, according to a new study published in the Journal of Dairy Science. Dr. H. Douglas Goff and the team of scientists from the Human Nutraceutical Research Unit at the University of Guelph, in collaboration with the University of Toronto, examined the effects of consuming high-protein milk at breakfast on blood glucose levels and satiety after breakfast and after a second meal.
They found that milk consumed with breakfast cereal reduced the postprandial blood glucose concentration compared with water, and a high dairy protein concentration reduced the postprandial blood glucose concentration compared with a normal dairy protein concentration. The high-protein treatment also reduced appetite after the second meal compared with the low-protein equivalent.
“Metabolic diseases are on the rise globally, with type 2 diabetes and obesity as leading concerns in human health,” Goff and the research team said. “Thus, there is impetus to develop dietary strategies for the risk reduction and management of obesity and diabetes to empower consumers to improve their personal health.”
In this randomized, controlled, double-blinded study, the team examined the effects of increasing the protein concentration and increasing the proportion of whey protein in milk consumed with a high-carbohydrate breakfast cereal on blood glucose, feelings of satiety and food consumption later in the day. Digestion of the whey and casein proteins naturally present in milk releases gastric hormones that slow digestion, hence increasing feelings of fullness. Digestion of whey proteins achieves this effect more quickly, whereas casein proteins provide a longer-lasting effect.
Although the team found only a modest difference in food consumption at the lunch meal when increasing whey protein at breakfast, they did find that milk consumed with a high-carbohydrate breakfast reduced blood glucose even after lunch, and high-protein milk had a greater effect. Milk with an increased proportion of whey protein had a modest effect on pre-lunch blood glucose, achieving a greater decrease than that provided by regular milk.
According to Goff and his colleagues, “This study confirms the importance of milk at breakfast time to aid in the slower digestion of carbohydrate and to help maintain lower blood sugar levels. Nutritionists have always stressed the importance of a healthy breakfast, and this study should encourage consumers to include milk.”
The study is available online at https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2018-14419.

IS FLORIDA’S DEATH PENALTY UNCONSTITUTIONAL?
All Florida executions are currently on hold because the Florida Supreme Court must fully evaluate how the United States Supreme Court’s recent decision in Ring v. Arizona impacts upon Florida’s statute. The question remains: Should a judge be the final decision-maker in deciding whether to sentence a convicted murderer to death, or should a jury make that final decision? In Florida, a jury issues an advisory verdict, but the final decision lies with a judge. This case will be argued before the Florida Supreme Court on August 21 and decided shortly thereafter. Until then, TIME-OUT ON EXECUTIONS IN FLORIDA!

May 17, 2013 by Charlie Eisenhood in Analysis, Rankings with 1 comments
After a revenge win over the Madison Radicals, the Windy City Wildfire move back to the top of the Midwest rankings at #2 overall. Even more impressive was that the Wildfire got the win despite playing without Brodie Smith, their primary handler and the league’s leading assister (with 62, he has 29 more than the next closest player!).
They may need to get used to the new Brodie-free system, as Smith has to get an MRI to check on what could be a serious injury.
Despite the Wildfire’s success, the Toronto Rush remain as the #1 team in the league after they fought through ugly weather to secure a comfortable win over New York this week.
Here are the full AUDL Power Rankings — see below for discussion.
1. Toronto Rush (6-0) — Another easy win for the Rush this week as they continue their quest for a perfect season. They hit the road this week to take on the streaking Rochester Dragons; the Rush are still a heavy favorite.
2. Windy City Wildfire (6-1) — The Wildfire avenged their only loss of the season with a 16-15 win over the Radicals in Madison. It was their fifth straight win and, assuming Smith gets healthy, they are once again the team to beat in the Midwest.
3. Madison Radicals (3-2) — The Radicals are just half a game ahead of the Revolution for second place in the Midwest, and they need to get a win over Detroit this weekend to stay there. Detroit won their first meeting 25-24.
4. Cincinnati Revolution (3-3) — With back to back wins over the Mechanix, Cincinnati now finds themselves in the thick of the playoff picture and moving up the Power Rankings. This weekend, they face the Alleycats for the first time this season.
5. Detroit Mechanix (3-3) — The Mechanix will look to avoid a three game skid with another upset of Madison this weekend. That is the first game of a tough back-to-back; they face Minnesota on Sunday.
6. Philadelphia Phoenix (2-1) — After a surprise week off due to weather, the Phoenix rematch the Breeze this weekend on the road. The Breeze have been improving and this game will be a bellwether for the Eastern Division. If the Phoenix win this weekend, they will solidify themselves as the second team in the East.
7. New York Empire (2-3) — On their first road trip of the season, the Empire did not keep their composure and dropped both games, including one they were supposed to win against Rochester. They were missing a handful of starters, however. They face the Hammerheads in New Jersey in an important test this weekend.
8. Minnesota Wind Chill (1-5) — The Wind Chill have now lost five straight and are freefalling through the Power Rankings. The relative strength of the Midwest is the only thing keeping them out of the basement. They have now faced every Midwest Conference team — their only win came in week one against the Alleycats.
9. Indianapolis Alleycats (1-3) — The Alleycats have to be relieved to have their biggest star, Cameron Brock, back after missing just one game with a brain hemorrhage. This — their first matchup against Cincinnati this season — is an important game for them as they look to end their three-game losing streak.
10. DC Breeze (2-3) — The Breeze got a comfortable win against the New Jersey Hammerheads this weekend to vault themselves out of last place in the league. A win against the Phoenix this weekend would show the East their slow start didn’t mean much.
11. Rochester Dragons (2-4) — With back-to-back home wins, Rochester is on the rise. They still at home this weekend to face the Rush, and simply putting up a good game would be impressive.
12. New Jersey Hammerheads (1-4) — The road has not been kind to New Jersey, where they are now 0-3 after losing to the Breeze last weekend. The Hammerheads were missing some talent in that game, but they didn’t show up to play, falling behind 7-1 in the first quarter. They have a chance to redeem themselves against New York at home this weekend.

Here are seven Bible verses that refer to trying to tame the tongue.
James 3:8 “But no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.”
What is ironic in the human tongue, mine naturally included, is that “With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God” (James 3:9). That’s like expecting to find poisonous water and fresh water coming out of the same fountain. It is contrary to the Spirit of God and the will of God. Sadly, no human can tame this wild tongue of ours so we must rely on God’s strength in trying to bridle it because it’s just about as hard as bridling a wild stallion.
Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.”
Words have meaning. They can bring great joy and admonishment but they can also leave deep wounds where scars cannot be seen or easily be healed. One small word can do so much good but it can also do so much bad. The power of the human tongue is that it can make a child believe they’ll never amount to anything or they’ll feel encouraged by their parents and feel like they can amount to anything. The rudder on a great ship is so tiny compared to the vessel but that same tiny rudder can cause the whole vessel to sink.
1 Peter 3:10 “Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit.”
Peter writes about the tongue as something we must do; keep it from evil and the “lips from speaking deceit.” It takes a cooperative work with the Spirit and Jesus strengthening us to keep this rebel member of the body. The tongue likes to move before the brain told it what to say. Peter puts it like this; if we love life and desire to see a good day then keep the tongue from evil (words) and lips from lying because “a lying tongue” is an abomination to God (Prov 6:17).
James 1:26 “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.”
Is there someone you know who seems to be religious but just can’t keep his tongue under control? James has a word for them; if someone really thinks he’s a religious person but lies and deceives, then that person’s religion is totally worthless. It’s one thing to say you’re a Christian but sometimes our words betray us; they reveal what’s in our heart. Jesus clarifies this point by saying “the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man” (Matt 15:18) because it is “out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander” (Matt 15:19).
Proverbs 12:18 “There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.”
One second of restraint can mean avoiding a thousand days of regret. What I mean is that spontaneous anger never ends well and the person who spoke the angry words nearly always ends up with regrets for what they said. The use of imagery is very vivid and compares to the deadliness of a quick thrusting of rash words with that of actual sword thrusts. This naturally injures the person on the receiving end however the tongue of the wise can often heal what the rash person has inflicted. The rash one is constantly cutting a path by mowing down everyone in their way on the way to what they want, however the wise person’s words can act as a balm that promotes inner healing.
James 3:5 “So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire.”
It takes one tiny bit of gossip, one slip of someone’s confidential files, or some flash of anger in a moment to set a whole forest on fire. Smallness does not mean insignificant. Dynamite does come in small packages and nothing in the human body packs a punch like the human tongue. It can do so many great things but it can also do so many destructive things. Like the old Navy saying “loose lips sink ships” so a tongue can sink a marriage, a church, a relationship, a job, and just about anything else you can imagine. The tongue’s like a loose cannon on a wave-tossed ship. It can help but it can also quickly turn on you.
Proverbs 15:4 “A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit.”
In this final Bible verse about taming the tongue, Solomon sees a gentle tongue as one that gives life but when used in a perverse or evil manner, it breaks the person’s spirit. At least it breaks their resistance to perversion. The tongue and the words used can be profanity-laced or grace-filled. The choice is purely up to the one which the tongue belongs too. It is a matter of personal choice so it is always best to remember that “The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools pour out folly” (Prov 15:2).
What was on the tongue of the psalmist should be on ours too as he wrote, “I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on my tongue” (Psalm 66:17) so “my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long” (Psalm 71:24). There is no greater use for the tongue “because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Rom 10:9).

Up-and-down shooting and the lack of a consistent third scorer hurt the Whitnall girls basketball team this past season.
"When we lost, we shot less than 25 percent (from the field)," coach Keith Larson said. "That's not going to win you many games. Because of that, we had a tendency that when we fell behind, it was an uphill battle to come back. It was tough to get back on track."
The Falcons finished 12-11 for the season, including 7-9 in the Woodland Conference. They won seven straight at one point but then followed with a 1-6 stretch.
"We had an up-and-down, streaky season," Larson continued. "For the most part, we played fairly well, and the girls remained upbeat through the whole season."
Inconsistency hampered all three area girls teams this season, with West Allis Hale finishing 11-13, Greenfield coming in at 8-14 and West Allis Central posting a 4-20 mark.
Here is a look back at their seasons.
Despite the team's struggles at times, senior forward Sierra Grubor enjoyed a fine season, averaging 18.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and three steals in earning Woodland East Division Player of the Year honors.
She set school records for career points (1,185) and season points (431).
"You always look at her scoring," Larson said, "but the other parts of her game are strong as well."
Senior post Jaden Kelley averaged 12.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.1 steals and 2.3 assists in making the all-division second team.
"Jaden improved each season to become our only true inside scoring threat," Larson said, "and she was a team leader and helped mentor our six sophomores."
The problem for Whitnall was that no one else approached that level for scoring, although senior guard Jessica Knackert did earn honorable mention all-division because of her all-around game. She was always among the team leaders in assists and steals.
The Falcons will lose seniors Knackert, Grubor, Kelley, Alexis Navarette, Abby Franckowiak and Sam Benzinger, so some rebuilding will be in order next season.
West Allis Hale
Coach George Sotiros found many positives for the Huskies' season.
"We had our most victories since the 2002-03 season, our first home playoff game since 2005-06 and our first home playoff victory since 2002-03," he said. "We beat one of the top four (Greater Metro) Conference programs (Brookfield East) for the first time in many years. We were 7-1 in nonconference, and we posted more victories than the previous year for the fifth consecutive season."
Hale also scored more points than it allowed for the first time since 2002-03, reducing points allowed from 60.2 per game to 51. The Huskies improved in shooting percentage, assists (305 this season) and steals (252), and they reduced their turnovers.
Hale had a balanced attack featuring junior guard Alyssa Cruz (8.8 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game) and junior forward KellyAnn Sotiros (8.4 points, nine rebounds and two assists per contest). Sotiros earned second-team all-GMC honors and Cruz honorable mention.
The offensive player of the year was Zoe Burczyk, the defensive player of the year was Sotiros, the most improved player was Cruz and the top newcomer Abi Stevens. The coaches' award went to Lexi Sevedge, the hustle award to Julie Palesse and the captains were Palesse, Sevedge and Sotiros.
The Huskies lose seniors Palesse, Sevedge, Linda Hensel and Ashley Levack but will return all five starters.
The Hustlin' Hawks were paced by a pair of sophomores, Ratka Karac at 12.2 points per game and Emma Graetz at 10.8 per contest. Graetz missed part of the season with an injury.
Junior Sophia Valero averaged 10 points and led the team with 20 3-point field goals, and sophomore Morgan Lesieur put in 6.1 points per game.
The lone seniors are Morgan Fularczyk and Olivia Faleta, so coach Rob Graetz will have plenty to work with next season.
West Allis Central
The Bulldogs were led by one of the better scorers in the area in Nikita Conroy at 22 points per game, with 42 3-point field goals.
Antoinette Powell added 13.2 points per game to give the Bulldogs a strong one-two punch, but the next-highest scorer was only at 6.1 points per outing.
Central did play more competitively for the most part in the rugged Greater Metro Conference but could not pull out any victories.

The latest releases from Simplicity patterns are here, and we’ve got some stuff to discuss! Most obviously, Simplicity has completely changed their packaging. While it retains elements of the former Simplicity presentation it also has a more minimalistic, modern, and sleek aesthetic. I think we’ve all noted how Simplicity has been chasing the “indie” look for a while with some of their recent releases, but I think this new packaging really underscores that as well. I’m not sure if I like it, but I do like the addition of the line drawings to the front of the package, so that is nice. Anyway, let’s get to looking at the actual pattern designs:
S9040 – I feel like I should have something to say here, but I’m just not that excited by this dress, to be honest. It has an oddly retro vibe, but it doesn’t quite have the crispness I associate with styles from the 1950s. It’s like it’s trying to be this odd mashup of retro styles and the more modern relaxed aesthetic? I don’t know… something about it just seems… off to me.
S9041 – This dress, however, I really like. I think Simplicity has offered styles with similar necklines, and sleeve options, and the waist tie, yet for some reason I really like the way all of these elements go together here. When I first saw this release I had totally convinced myself I didn’t need this pattern, but, alas, I think I’ve talked myself into it. For some reason all of the elements add up to a style I really, really enjoy.
S9042 – This dress I don’t like quite as much as the previous style, but I do still really like it, and I think it looks amazing on the model. I like the sleeve and hem length options, but I really like the belt tie – I think it looks super elegant.
S9043 – Mimi G Style. I really like these mens trousers too! Of course, Norris looks great in everything, but I think these have some really lovely classic details that make a great pair of trousers.
S9044 – This tunic top has a lot of pintuck detailing. There’s nothing wrong with a good pintucked tunic, but I just don’t really feel like there is anything special about it one. Maybe it’s the model photo as well; the white on blue on this new pale background really just washes out all of the detail and the overall effect is somewhat underwhelming.
S9045 – This simple top is nice, but, well, simple. If I didn’t have as large of a stash as I do, I’d definitely be more intrigued by this top, because it has some interesting neckline treatments, but as is I don’t really feel like I need it in my collection.
S9046 – This is another top pattern that is fine, but not overly exciting. It looks comfortable, but it’s not really unique enough to get overly excited about.
S9047 – This jacket pattern is another pattern that is fine, but somehow not overly exciting. I think this could perhaps be one of those styles that might get made up in some fabulous fabric and catch everyones attention, but its a style I will be passing on.
S9048 – I think this wrap skirt is cute, but I’ve got similar styles from Burda that I prefer to this version.
S9049 – I can see this being a popular pattern, but I’m going to pass on this extra long wrap/apron-ish style. I do think the pocket details are nice, but I don’t need this pattern just for the pocket details.
S9050 – Another pattern where I feel like “Burda did it better.” This is one unfortunate side effect of having a large stash… it takes a lot to impress you!
S9051 – This wardrobe pattern is cute, but, again, both the top and pants feel very similar to styles that I already own.
S9052 – Mimi G Style. I do really like this jacket pattern from Mimi G, and I really appreciate a unisex style that looks super cool on everyone. The removable hood is an awesome detail, and I really like the back shoulder details as well. There are a lot of awesome details hidden in this pattern, and I think I really do want to add this one to the stash.
S9053 – I don’t usually have much commentary on kids clothes, but this is actually kind of cute in a weird way.
S9054 – The line drawings make the shirts in this pattern look a little bit crazy, but photo makes them seem pretty normal. And leggings always seem to be a great options for kids, since it gives them a lot of mobility.
S9055 – I actually really appreciate this for the fashionista kid (that I never was) who is totally rocking blazers in middle school. (Yeah, I’m definitely still not that kid… I’m struggling to rock a blazer for the day job. Or, well, rock anything at my day job come to that. Yeah, I need to get on it.)
S9056 – Yay, a pattern for boys! It’s nice that it has several fit options as well.
S9057 – I’m super not excited about this mommy and me sort of dress pattern. It makes me think of all the things in the 80s that I really hated as a kid…
S9058 – This top pattern falls somewhere between intriguing and just sort of weird? The plain top is kind of dull, and the drapey top is kind of voluminous, but the half and half top just seems sort of discordant? Like, it is definitely the most interesting view, but also seems like you are wearing two half tops? I don’t know. It’s like, I like the idea of it. I just don’t know how much I enjoy it in actual practice?
S9059 – Finally, we have this sweater/cardigan/jacket pattern. I do like the close fit of this, but I think it is another pattern that suffers from have similar styles already on the market. It’s cute, and I think it will look really good on a lot of people, but it is not something that I feel the need to add to my personal stash.
And that’s it! I’m curious to know what you all think – are there any patterns here that you have to add to the stash? Or is it a pretty dull release? What do you think of Simplicity’s new branding? Are you in any way ready to be thinking about “early spring” sewing or are you still scrambling to sew anything for the holidays? Feel free to discuss it all in the comments!

Nominated Member of Parliament Janice Koh's recent call for the authorities to set a broadcast quota for airtime play of Singapore music on local radio is not new. Proponents of the home-grown music industry have called for similar initiatives in the past few years.
Neither is it new to hear critics of the quota idea say there is not enough good local content to fill airtime.
A listen of the recent acclaimed releases by home-grown acts Monster Cat, Pleasantry, Atlas, The Observatory and The Pinholes will lay to rest that argument.
Monster Cat's debut album, for instance, has generated both critical and fan acclaim. The first single off the release, Take Me To Love, shot to the top spot in iTunes' Singapore sales charts in February, beating international heavyweights such as Pharrell Williams and Christina Aguilera.
Mr Shahid Isahak, vice-president of The Music Society, Singapore, says the non-profit organisation has seen "a sizeable number of Singapore-made recordings that meets broadcast standards".
The 31-year-old adds: "We attribute it largely to upgrades our music community has undertaken, with access to studios and engineers in and outside of Singapore. And I find this to be only improving."
Veteran music producer Leonard Soosay - who has worked with Monster Cat, Pleasantry, Atlas as well as other local acts such as The Great Spy Experiment - has seen a vast improvement in the quality of songwriting and song arrangements in recent releases by home-grown bands. "The younger bands these days are more well-versed not just in songwriting but also in the use of their equipment."
Soosay, who runs recording studio Snakeweed Studios and is a mentor to budding bands in the Esplanade's Baybeats music festival this year, adds: "We've seen more youth picking up instruments and taking their music more seriously rather than just as hobbyists."

Anyways, I haven't gotten much done this week, but I'll show you what I have gotten done.
So a little more done on the White Lions. The first wash on the golds, the blacks, and the rest of the blues since last time (I think). I have since dropped the Dragon Princes from my list, so I'm not going to finish painting them at this time. Instead I added 2 chariots to my list, which I just finished the banner for the Lion Chariot last post, so there's some good news.
Sadly, this is all I've gotten done for my High Elves, but I have bombed around on a few other minis. Join me after the break to see what I've been up to...
Vampires! My interest in them has perked up a little again, so I thought I'd focus on a character model I really liked to see if I could get into them. So far so good. This is very much a work in progress, but it's actually a pretty good start, if I do say so myself.
And Tyranids! I went back to my old Tyranids, only with a whole new paint scheme. And that paint scheme is the old classic Space Hulk scheme. I've always been a fan of the purple and blue, and I'm thinknig now is the time to try it out. Now the Lictor below I had actually painted quite a while back. But I went back into him, lightened up the purples, and changed the claws from black to bone. I only did half of the model, for comparisons. This is the old, unaltered side:
And this is the touched-up side:
Then, to test out how hard it would be to re-paint my existing Tyranids, I tried painting over the existing scheme. It didn't turn out too bad actually. I haven't done much to it, but I haven't really lost any detail. Which is good, because I don't really want to strip these minis for the fourth time (yes, I've repainted them twice already...)
The worst part in all of this? I keep thinking about my old Orcs. Will I never learn?

CONNECTING HUMANS AND NATURE. I interviewed the eminent Japanese architect Tadao Ando at Château La Coste, the beautiful hotel and vineyard located near Aix-en-Provence, where Ando was opening a show of his drawings in the art centre that he built in 2011. Afterwards Ando was going on to Paris, as he is restoring and rebuilding the Bourse de Commerce building to become a museum that houses the Pinault Collection.
THIS INTERVIEW IS ALSO AVAILABLE TO LISTEN TO AS A PODCAST.
You started your career as a boxer, and you never went to architecture school. How did you learn to be an architect?
My family was poor, so I was not able to go to school to learn. The house I grew up in was a one storey building. When I was a teenager and the house was being expanded, a carpenter came every day, to build the second floor. The carpenter was working so hard, and I was struck by his passion, forgetting even to eat his lunch, and he was working with such joy that this gave me an interest in architecture and building.
Why were you a boxer? Is there a connection with architecture?
Near my home there was a boxing gym, and I didn’t think it looked that hard; and when you fight you get paid. I turned out to be relatively good, so I started boxing. The connection is that once you are in the ring you are alone, on your own, and I learnt that mentality in boxing; and the same is true for architecture. Once you start a project you don’t rely on anyone else.
Why did you stop boxing?
To be a great boxer you need talent, and for architecture you also need talent. When I was practicing boxing at the gym I met this young man called Harada, and when I saw him fighting hard and practicing against people I realised I would never have his talent as a boxer.
Who told you that you would have talent as an architect?
I was interested in architecture, and luckily Ōsaka is close to Kyōto, whose historical structures I visited frequently when I was 17. I spent hours and hours there in temples. The monks saw me there every day and started showing interest in me and showing me around areas that you can’t visit. I talked to other people who said you have to read this book and visit these buildings. I went to the used bookstore nearby my home to find Le Corbusier’s book, and because I couldn’t afford to buy it I hid under the shelf and traced over the buildings and projects in the book, and I went back to study it every day.
What was you first architecture project and how did you manage to do it?
When I was 28 the brother of my friend asked me to design a house for three family members in Ōsaka. That is actually where my office is today. It’s a corner lot, a house for a wife, a husband and one child. You go up the stairs to the living spaces. After realising this first project in 1976 another client asked me to build a house that turned out to be the Row House of Sumiyoshi.
Can you please tell me about the relationships that you have with your clients?
I create a building together with a client, so it is most important that the client has a vision for the project. I don’t work with a client who doesn’t have any passion and a strong will towards his own project.
“Creating something that sticks to your heart is more important than anything else.”
How do you find your clients and how do they find you?
Every client I have is from their end. I never approach anyone. For instance, over 25 years ago Giorgio Armani called me over the phone. There have always been very weird and fraudulent phone calls wanting to talk to me, so I didn’t believe it was him and hung up. A week later the person called again, again claiming he was Giorgio Armani, and I realised this was real.
How is working with Giorgio Armani?
After that second phone call I met him right away, and when I went to visit him in Milan I saw him working on fabrics and clothes in his own workplace with a decisiveness and a speed which struck me. He is very committed to every piece he works on, and I was inspired that he cares so much for every piece he produces and works with such passion.
Was Giorgio Armani your first client in Europe?
No, that was Luciano Benetton. I had designed the Seville Expo ’92 Japan pavilion, and when Luciano visited the Expo he was very inspired by it. Through that structure he understood Japanese sensitivity and saw the possibility of cultural collaboration between Europe and Japan.
What did Luciano Benetton want to build?
Fabrica, a school at the Villa Pastega Manera, near Venice. His programme was to collect 100 students from all over the world to stay at the facility, to study and to learn. This was also a renovation of an existing 19th century classical building, so almost everything I created was underground. I talked with him about how we cherished the past and cherish the present and aim for the future. That was our main goal.
In 1965 I visited Marseille when traveling by boat back to Japan. The ship didn’t arrive in time, I waited for days, and so I went back and forth visiting the Le Corbusier structure, a multi-family residential housing project. I feel that it his greatest work. I also had time to visit the Romanesque Church of St. Laurent, a treasure of the world. After visiting these structures I felt it important to minimise the design, and that creating something that sticks to your heart is more important than anything else. There is always this moment when something new is being erected. It is not just buildings, but when Picasso started a new style, or when Cézanne was a founding father of the impressionist movement, or when Monet’s sensitivity towards the light captured it in a new, revolutionary way. Initially Paddy McKillen and Bono from U2 visited me in Japan. When I have a new client I want to understand their personality and mind-set, so I took them to the Church of the Light outside of Ōsaka. Bono asked if it was OK that he sang at the Church of the Light, and he sang Amazing Grace.
Did you come to La Coste because Bono sang Amazing Grace in the Church of the Light?
I had never visited this exact site, but, as I said earlier, I was already familiar with Marseille and was intrigued by the proximity of La Coste to my youth. The Romanesque people died at a young age and didn’t last long physically, but their mind strength has endured. I wanted to build something very quiet, in a place where people could re-energize their mental strength. After visiting here I felt that I could create something one of a kind and special and only possible here. This is where Cézanne painted, and there is a vineyard, and wine is the livelihood of this whole area. With such a strong base I felt I could capture the identity of the community and its culture.
When was the Church of the Light built?
In 1989. It is a world where there is no differentiation between nature and light and human physical form; everything comes together.
There is this open cross of light?
Because I wanted the human physical form and nature to come together, I didn’t want any glass in there, as the wind coming in is very important. In modern times and with contemporary technology it has become very convenient to have large pieces of glass, but this developed technology actually disengages us from the true essence of architecture and goes in the opposite direction. For the Benetton school there is not a single window. For the Church of the Light I wanted to take the glass out. In another project, the Church on the Water, the glass window slides to the side, so that the whole space becomes open.
Why do you build many places of worship?
You see, when the project is offered to me, first I think deeply about the site and the project, and if I can create something that’s great, but it is more important that physical forms and mentality work together. Mental mind allows humans to live for ever. People in the world tend to think that physical health and strength allows you to live long, but I believe that mental strength allows you to live long, and I want to build structures that express mental strength.
Does Zen culture inspire you?
There is a gentleman called Nishida Kitarō of about a hundred years ago, one of the founders of the Zen philosophy, and also Watsuji Tetsurō. When I read their Zen writings I really did not understand them, but I took bits and pieces from each and started to understand, slowly. When I was teaching myself architecture I studied how to build a structure, but I also studied the mind-set of human beings.
How do you express this today?
Years ago the Japanese lived in their own world, and everybody in Europe lived in their own comfort zone. Everybody lived in their own comfort zone, but now everybody travels around the world. In my ‘Four Cubes to Contemplate our Environment’ at Château La Coste, my four cubes represent garbage. For example, one cube has CO2 writings on it, expressing that the entire world will be covered with garbage and CO2. That’s the way I express it, through a piece of work.
“The hardest part is not the project, but translating my mental image into a physical form.”
What is your link to François Pinault, in Paris and in Venice?
Karl Lagerfeld was my long-time friend who I trusted and respected, and when he said he wanted to introduce someone very interesting I was intrigued as to who the person was. Initially François Pinault asked me to design Château Latour in Bordeaux, but the site is very difficult so I was not able to realise it. After that Mr Pinault approached me for a museum project on an island on the Seine, to renovate a factory, but again that didn’t go through, even after we had developed a lot of drawings and designs for it. The construction was actually begun, but the project stopped and fell apart. In my experience there are so many things that have been started but didn’t go well. I recall reading a book by Nishida Kitarō on the philosophy of mu, nothingness, and the feeling I had when I read the book was that things don’t always go well but eventually something happens and one can surpass these moments. I let it go for a couple of years, and François Pinault came with a new project, Palazzo Grassi in Venice, followed by Punta della Dogana in Venice, and the Bourse de Commerce in Paris.
How does a contemporary architect approach work in a city like Venice, an architectural masterpiece in itself?
It is not just about a building sticking out of the ground, there are many structures surrounding it, and around the site there are histories and a future. Punta della Dogana is very rich in history, so first I decided we could not touch the existing building out of respect for history. Instead of expressing myself, I wanted to keep the existing building and produce something new inside the structure. I used the same approach for the Bourse de Commerce. In Punta della Dogana I decided to put a square shaped structure in the triangular 14th century building. An important philosophy from the past is that the core shapes are the circle, the square and the triangle, so in Punto della Dogana I decided on a square, and in the Bourse in Paris a circular structure. François Pinault wanted a permanent home for his collection and I have done it in a circle, an everlasting shape. Visually and with feeling, through my design I like to connect the ancient Greek structure and the contemporary structure, the mental image and the physical feeling in one building.
You started with small houses for poor people in your hometown Ōsaka, and from that beginning you have worked all over the world. Is yours a journey where there is something in common between all the projects?
I am not doing architecture as a business. From the very beginning my core approach to design and architecture is us humans living together with nature. From the very beginning with the Row House at Sumiyoshi, when you look up at the sky from the courtyard and that sky belongs to you. This allows you to connect with planet earth and makes you feel that this is your own world. Contemporary architecture and art need to create similar feelings, the connections between humans and nature. Little art gets to me, but when it does I am deeply affected by it.
An artist like Giacometti for example makes every sculpture in his own particular way, and a Van Gogh has his colour. What does Ando have, so that one looks at a place and says this is Ando? Is it like that for you?
I hope so. I have tried my best to create something that people can tell is Tadao Ando in spirit. When you enter the space or the building, it is very important that you connect with nature one way or another, and I want to create something that is very sharp in that sense, the emotional connection that you feel through the building, and I hope everything will have that strength.
Is it more difficult to build a museum, a temple, or a private house?
The hardest part is not the project, but translating my mental image into a physical form. I like to create something that is on the edge, not comfortable, disturbing, that creates a certain ‘nervousness’ whenever people visit, that has this butterfly feeling in your mind when you visit.
I don’t understand. What do you want to create?
It is not a specific nervousness of feeling you get through a building, it is this butterfly feeling on entering the building; it’s not a style or a materiality. It’s a feeling.
Do you care about the comfort and security in a house, or for you is it just a shape?
For residences of course I think about the livelihood of the client and what they are like, and I spend a lot of time thinking about it and being with the client. I like to add this nervousness through a structure with a comfort. Today the new structures are getting larger and larger to accommodate more and more people, and it is very difficult to convey these feelings to so many people.
You don’t like big buildings?
For certain larger projects of course, but my preference is smaller projects that allow you to connect with the heart. I am doing a very small hotel project of only ten rooms for Paddy McKillen in Gion, in Kyōto. Gion has a very traditional lifestyle that you see day and night. The hotel is located on a small site next to a river, and I felt that there I could make something that captured the traditional culture of Kyōto, which is becoming modernised today.
Do you like horizontal or vertical buildings?
Horizontal. I haven’t done skyscrapers, and I prefer something that is closer to the ground, because if you go higher it becomes business. For example, when you spend time in Kyōto in a small traditional house hotel, when you have nothingness in your mind you realise how well made the space is, and you can start feeling the culture and tradition without even knowing too much about it. Forty years ago I visited the Pantheon in Rome, alone. No one else was in there, and I was just standing there and looking up; and I realised it was a nothingness of forever, and that the eight metre wide diameter circular hole in the top moves along with the sun, and it gives us the relationship between the light and shadow, and the fact that it moves around expresses the earth.
Is life in Japan very much determined by the seasons?
The very beautiful and great part about Japan is its four seasons, for each of which we change how we dress and the design elements we have placed in the house. For example, the warmer paintings of winter are replaced to give a breezy feeling of spring; traditionally, even the food dishes you eat change every season. The rich culture of Japan expresses the four seasons very well.

“We forget who we are as a human, an animal living in nature.”
What do you teach young architects at Harvard and other schools around the world?
This is not only for architects, but there is only one earth and the population is increasing. People don’t appreciate the physical form, food, energy, nature, as much as we used to. Education is the most important part. Compared to Europe, in Asia as a whole there are a lot of parts that are really uneducated.
How do you educate yourself if you want to become an architect?
I would like people to read more physical books and magazines, and use smartphones less. It is very convenient to have a smartphone, and we humans are all attracted to and lean towards every single convenience. But Château La Coste is not convenient, and the island of Naoshima is even worse, it is on a small island in the ocean, so very inconvenient. When you are somewhere inconvenient you are disconnected to the rest of the world, so you start connecting internally with nature and the surroundings, and this enriches your creativity and mind. There is a district in Tokyo consisting of an artificial island made of compacted garbage, about the size of a golf course. From around 2005 I collected 70,000 people and created a movement to start planting trees on this garbage island, which over a decade later has become green and full of trees, and will be used for Olympic events in 2020.
What is your working day?
I arrive at the office at 10am, and now, after my cancer, I rest for about an hour after lunch and then work until 6pm when I go to the gym. That’s six days a week. I am missing five organs from my body, including my pancreas, gall bladder and spleen, but mental ambition allows you to live long. Having a goal in life and going to museums and being exposed to different cultures enriches your sensitivity and allows you to live long.
What are your new projects?
I will design two or three more structures in Naoshima. In the Netherlands we are doing an extension and renovation of the Kröller-Müller museum in Gelderland, a museum with a very large collection of Van Goghs. The world has a passion for big buildings and I focus on connection with your feelings and heart through a building, and I believe it is easier for people to feel through a small structure.
Is this why only 27 people work for you and you only have a single office?
Yes. I don’t want to expand to the outside world, and I like to control and take responsibility for every project on my own.
Which do you consider to be the most important achievements for your legacy?
The Row House of Sumiyoshi, where you have an interior courtyard and you have your own sky; and the Church of the Light, where you engage constantly with the light but are not flooded by it; and the Bourse de Commerce in Paris, and Punta della Dogana in Venice, both will leave a very big mark.
What about in America?
If I had to choose, it would be the Pulitzer Arts Foundation Museum in St. Louis, Missouri.
How do you perceive the role of Japan in the world of today?
Until World War II Japan was great. Japanese people were very cultured, but not there yet economically. After World War II the economy grew rapidly, and we started losing the culture and tradition of Japan, and now today the young generations have no interest in the tradition of the country and are not even trying to understand its cultural foundations. I believe that once you start losing the identity of the country from your soul, it will destroy itself. For a time Japan was strong globally economically, but it is already weaker than China and Indonesia.
Are Japan’s relations with China difficult?
It’s not about a good relationship or not, the population is so significantly different that you cannot compare. In the past decade the Chinese economy grew rapidly and that’s when population size comes into play. But China only has the economy, it is their biggest strength, and America only cares about the economy. With globalisation we all have to think about this earth as one, and try to resolve the issues.
What would you like to say in conclusion?
When you are old, in your nineties before you pass, in the past people went to church, or to their monk, or to meditate to bring themselves back, but today no one does that – so, when one passes away, there is no good memory or connection to the earth. We forget who we are as a human, an animal living in nature. We forget that core component of us humans, so, when it passes, what is there to remember? I want to create a space you can remember, something that sticks to your heart, that sticks to your body. That is the main philosophy behind my design.
Provence, April 2019

It looks like no matter who wins this year’s US presidential election, they’ll be an iPad right by our next president’s side. We’ve known for some time that President Obama uses an iPad – for everything from the Presidential Daily Briefing to keeping up with the NBA.
Now we know that Obama’s Republican rival Mitt Romney also uses an iPad, as noted in a recent report by Peggy Noonan in The Wall Street Journal:
He keeps a campaign journal on his iPad: “Now this is going to make my iPad a subject of potential theft!” He used to speak his entries, but now he types them on an attached keyboard. “I’ve kept up pretty well, actually.” He writes every two or three days, so that 10 years from now he can “remember what it was like,” but also to capture “the feelings—the ups the downs, the people I meet and the sense I have about what’s going to happen. It’s kind of fun to go back and read, as Ann and I do from time to time.”
It’s great to see that both of the leading candidates for president are getting good use out of their iPads. Oh, and I do believe that Mr. Romney is using it for creation, not just consumption – based on Noonan’s article.
Thanks very much to reader Braden for sending in the photo shown above.

Slade, Hangar34, Liverpool - 22nd December 2017
Excellent night out in a brilliant venue, small and intimate with a great atmosphere and great performance. The support act were fine and a good party warm up with no pretentions of being discovered, just banging out good tunes to get the crowd going. Slade were as good as always and we go every year but this was an excellent venue, "up close and personal".
Long may they continue and keep them in Liverpool so we don't have to travel to Wrexham etc. to see them.

Safety, security convenience and productivity are key reasons why individuals and companies choose on-demand air travel for personal and business travel. Air charter flights operate on the passenger’s schedule, allowing considerable flexibility. With the ability to fly in and out of more than 5,000 public use airports in the United States – more than 100 times that of the airlines – air charter provides convenient access to your destination. And air charter is a safe mode of transportation.
Even with all the benefits air charter provides, it is also true that not all air charter operators will meet your specific wants and needs. You must become an educated air charter consumer. A general understanding of what questions to ask and what answers to expect will assist you in your effort to choose a safe and reputable charter operator – one that will provide the aircraft and service level you require and deserve.
The resources on this web site provide you with information to become an educated consumer and tools you can use to pre-screen charter operators and to obtain competitive quotes for charter flights.
Guide to Selling Charter By The Seat
This resource is intended to provide an overview of (a) the types of per-seat and planeload charter operations using aircraft operated under Part 135 – scheduled, charter and on-demand operations, and (b) certain regulatory considerations that govern such operations. It contains information on what operations are permitted under Part 135, the differences between FAA and Department of Transportation (DOT) enforcement policies, and specific regulatory considerations for scheduled, on-demand and public charter air transportation.

The valuable information for charter users provided in the guide includes: procedures for finding charter operators and charter brokers; information for locating contractors who audit charter companies for safety; a list of sample pre-screening questions consumers may use to vet charter operators; and an RFP template consumers can use to obtain and evaluate quotes for specific charter flights.

FAA Regulations Governing Charter Operations
Title 14 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations governs Transportation and Space. Volume II of this Title contains numerous regulations affecting aircraft operations. Of particular interest to charter consumers would be Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) Part 119 which defines commercial aircraft operations and the certification requirements for operators and FAR Part 135 which prescribes the rules generally governing on-demand passenger charter operations for aircraft with fewer than 30 seats and less than 7,500 lbs payload capacity.

Homemade Beauty Products: How To Make Your Own
Are you curious about all the beauty products out there claiming
to be natural or organic, and wondering what you might be able to create at home?
Or have you seen ideas online or in magazines for homemade beauty products and you’re
intrigued to start mixing things up? Making your own beauty treatments in the kitchen
may sound fun and adventurous, but there are a few things you need to know before
you get out the mixing bowl.
Be sure to ask your parents for permission before you go
about making any sort of concoction. Although there are recipes at the bottom of
this article, get mom and/or dad’s approval and ask them for help. They may want
to join you!
Be Aware of Allergies
Just because an ingredient grows out of the ground or is
found in nature doesn't automatically mean it is safe to use on your body. It's
important to know that many common kitchen ingredients can cause allergies, irritation
and skin sensitivities. Do some research and test new items on your hands or wrists
before you toss in a pinch of this and a cup of that — you may be allergic to something
you had no idea you were!
Once you've whipped up a batch, it is critical that you store
your homemade product in a sterilized container with a tight-fitting (preferably
airtight) lid. Most store-bought products are made with ingredients called preservatives
that help to keep bacteria and other nasty things from growing in them. Most likely
you don’t have access to use them in your homemade products, so they won’t be safe
for a long period of time.
When it comes to natural, homemade beauty products, only
make small batches at a time and discard if the smell or color changes.
Now that you know what to do to get started, we've compiled
a few recipes you can try:
Makeup remover: Use a small amount of plain olive oil
on a cloth or cotton ball.
Facial mask: For normal skin, use a tablespoon of sour
cream, or plain yogurt. For dry skin, mash up half an avocado or a banana. For oily
skin, mash up some strawberries, blueberries or egg whites. Then, spread the mixture
on your clean skin. Keep it on for 15 minutes, and then rinse it off with warm water.
Follow up immediately by applying your favorite cream or moisturizer.
Face moisturizer: Use a small amount of good-quality
coconut oil and add one drop of jasmine oil. Mix it up and apply a small amount
over your whole face.
Face exfoliator: Mix a tablespoon of cornmeal with a
tablespoon of olive oil and one drop of lavender. Apply a small amount on your face
and use a circular motion to exfoliate. Then wash away clean with warm water and
dry with a clean cloth.
Hair treatment: To treat dry, damaged hair, use pure
honey as a hair conditioning pack. Massage a tablespoon or two into your damp hair
and let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes. It might feel sticky at first, but don't worry.
Just rinse warm water and dry as you normally do.
Egg hair conditioner: Beat one egg yolk until its color
is light, but its consistency is thick. Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil slowly
into the egg and beat well. Pour 3/4 cup of lukewarm water into the mixture, and
then beat the mixture together well. Place the conditioner into a container. The
next time you wash your hair, shampoo, rinse, then rub the conditioner into your
hair and leave it in for a few minutes before rinsing completely with warm water.
Body scrubs: Mix together 1/2 cup of kosher salt with
1/4 cup light oil or liquid cleanser. When in the bathtub or shower, massage into
your skin before bathing. You can also add a drop of lavender and/or a drop of rose
oil to add some scent. Finish by washing away with warm water.

Should you deny permission for the release of information, any future requests for such information from news media and other individuals will be refused for the duration of the school year.
To request that the school not disclose directory information, please notify your child’s school in writing within 14 days of the start of the school year or within 14 days of enrolling your child. Otherwise, your student’s directory information may be released without further permission.

account. This will be considered the student's official Office 365 account until such time as the student is no longer enrolled in Hamilton Southeastern Schools. The naming convention will be Skyward Name Key (excluding spaces) followed by @hsestudents.org (i.e. [email protected]
). All students will have access to the features within Office 365 including but not limited to, Mail (email), OneDrive (cloud storage), Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.
Students are responsible for appropriate, online behavior just as they are in a traditional school building. Students should inform their teacher of inappropriate use. Any disciplinary actions taken pursuant to the Board Policy shall incorporate the procedural due process rights of the student and/or parent/guardian as provided by law, Board policy, and the Student Rights Handbook. Please refer to Board HSE Procedure: I05.3.1 Technology Usage Guidelines URL: http://www.boarddocs.com/in/hses/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=86X5PF6D71E7
The district maintains the right to immediately withdraw the access and use of the account when there is reason to believe that violations of law or school board policies have occurred. In such cases, the alleged violation will be referred to the principal for further investigation and application of necessary consequences.
Hamilton Southeastern Schools reserves the right to access and review content in the student’s Office 365 account at any time. Hamilton Southeastern Schools complies with all state and federal privacy laws. Parents/Guardians are encouraged to know how to access their student’s Office 365 account.
If a parent wishes for their child(ren) to not have access to Mail (email), please contact the Director of Educational Technologies ([email protected]
) in writing within 14 days of the start of the school year or enrolling your child. However, these students will still retain access to the other features within their Office 365 account.
STUDENT COMPUTING RESOURCES AND INTERNET ACCESS
Hamilton Southeastern Schools desires to fairly and consistently address the issues that arise with student technology usage. While it is recognized that students have freedom of expression, it is not absolute. In the interest of preserving school order and safety, the HSE School Board has established a policy (I05.03) and guidelines (I05.3.1) for technology usage. The goal of these guidelines is to inform students, parents, and educators how the Board of School Trustees and the school corporation will define student conduct with respect to the use of technology that could result in denial, suspension or expulsion. Indiana State statute, Indiana Criminal Code, and U.S. Supreme Court decisions are used in establishing these guidelines.
Computing resources and Internet access is provided to facilitate communications in support of research and education both curricular and extracurricular. To maintain eligibility to this access, students and parents/guardians must be in support of, and consistent with, the educational objectives and policies established by Hamilton Southeastern Schools.
The use of any technology resources in Hamilton Southeastern Schools is subject to regulation and monitoring. Violation of any school rules and corporation policy may result in denial and disciplinary actions. Students and parents will be informed about disciplinary action to be taken in cases of misuse and/or abuse of technology.
Situations which will be considered in determining if an individual has violated the technology usage policy are as follows:
A student shall not create or otherwise access technology content that:
- violates any school rule, including any student discipline rule and any school policy;
- causes or is likely to cause a substantial and material disruption to the school;
- is a “true threat”;
- is considered as lewd, vulgar, indecent or plainly offensive;
- generates a legitimate educational concern; or
- is considered an unlawful activity.
Details and definition to the above situations are found in HSE Technology Usage Policy I05.03 and Guidelines I05.3.1.
Students should not have any expectation of privacy with respect to files stored on school-based computing equipment. Hamilton Southeastern Schools reserves the right to monitor Internet access or other network or computer-related activities, engage in routine computer maintenance and housekeeping, carry out internal investigations, prepare responses to request for public records, or disclose messages, data, or files to law enforcement or other legal authorities.
The Corporation recognizes the need to educate students regarding appropriate behavior on social networking and sites about cyber bullying. The Corporation recognizes the need to education students regarding appropriate behavior on social networking and internet application including cyber bullying awareness and response.
Hamilton Southeastern Schools makes no warranties of any kind, neither expressed nor implied, for the computing resources and Internet access it provides. Hamilton Southeastern Schools will not be responsible for any damages students suffer, including, but not limited to, loss or corruption of data resulting from delays or interruptions in Internet or computing services. Hamilton Southeastern Schools will not be responsible for the accuracy, nature, or quality of information stored on portable media, hard drives, file servers, or other computing resources; nor for the accuracy, nature, or quality of information gathered through corporation provided computing resources and Internet access.
Hamilton Southeastern Schools will not be responsible for personal property used to access corporation computers or networks or for corporation provided computing resources and Internet access. Hamilton Southeastern Schools will not be responsible for unauthorized financial obligations resulting from corporation-provided access to computing resources and the Internet.
Students utilizing corporation-provided computing resources and Internet are responsible for good online behavior similar to the good behavior expected in a classroom or other area of school. Students' use of corporation or personal technology including computing resources, internet access, and communication devices is subject to the conditions as found in Guidelines I05.3.1 and student handbooks. Inappropriate use of such technology may result in disciplinary action.
Families should be aware that some material accessible via the Internet may contain items that are tasteless, illegal, defamatory, inaccurate, or potentially offensive to some people. In addition, it is possible to purchase goods and services via the Internet, which could result in unwanted financial obligations for which a student's parent or guardian would be liable.
While Hamilton Southeastern Schools' intent is to make Internet access available in order to further educational goals and objectives, students may find ways to access other materials as well. Any Hamilton Southeastern Schools device used by students will have an Internet filtering process in place when accessing the Internet through HSE school corporation network. Nevertheless, the HSE School Board recognizes that no current technology will prevent all abuses or improper use.
Ultimately, parents and guardians of minors are responsible for setting and conveying the standards that their children should follow when using media, computing, and information sources. There is a fine balance between encouraging autonomous learning and maintaining adequate supervision. Hamilton Southeastern makes the corporation's complete Technology Usage Policy I05.03 and Guidelines I05.3.1 available online on the HSE's website (https://www.hseschools.org/) for review by all parents, guardians, and other member of the community.
Corporation-provided computing resources and Internet access is designed for educational purposes only, curricular or extracurricular. It is impossible for Hamilton Southeastern Schools to completely restrict access to controversial materials, and HSE will not be held responsible for materials acquired on Hamilton Southeastern School’s computing resources or over the Internet.
Students and parents understand and will abide by the Hamilton Southeastern Schools Technology Usage Policy I05.03 and Guidelines I05.3.1. And further understand that should they commit any violation, their access and /or privileges may be revoked and disciplinary action (up to suspension or expulsion) may be taken as deemed necessary by the Superintendent/designee. This may include legal action. There is no expectation of privacy in respect to the use of electronic information, resources, data files, or other records generated, stored, or maintained on Hamilton Southeastern Schools’ computer resources. This also applies to the use of personal technology.
Parents and guardians may request alternative activities not requiring computing resources and/or Internet use for their minor children by contacting their school principal in writing within 14 days of the start of the school year or enrolling your child.
HAMILTON SOUTHEASTERN RESTRAINT AND SECLUSION OF STUDENTS
Hamilton Southeastern Schools has adopted a plan for the restraint and seclusion of students. The plan is available via the HSE web-site under Board Docs policy J10.00. Here is the link to the board policy J10.00: http://www.boarddocs.com/in/hses/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=8CYJMS4DE57B
Media Interviews and Photographs
Members of the public news media wishing to conduct interviews or take photographs at school during regular school hours in which students would (or could) be individually identified, need the prior permission of the central office administration.
Each year parents/guardians will be given the opportunity to indicate if they do not want public news media to interview or photograph their child at school.
Using Schools or Students for Publicity Purposes
Partisan, sectarian, or denominational doctrines may not be advocated in a public school during the hours the school is in session. This includes filming of campaign advertisements or other spots which advocate a certain position or opinion. This policy is not intended to limit the use of debates for instructional purposes, nor is it intended to limit the use of school facilities for organized debates.
TOBACCO FREE SCHOOLS
The Board of School Trustees declares all school buildings and grounds, including athletic facilities to be smoke-free environments. Staff, students and members of the public are expected to observe this restriction at all times. Notices will be posted indicating that all Hamilton Southeastern School buildings and grounds are smoke-free.
The Board of School Trustees authorizes the use of video cameras on corporation property to assist in protecting the health, welfare, and safety of all staff, students, and visitors and to safeguard corporation facilities and equipment. Video cameras may be used in locations deemed appropriate by the Superintendent or their designee.
Recorded information from these cameras (“security videos”) showing identifiable students will be treated as an “education record” and will not be produced outside of the corporation except pursuant to a subpoena, court order, or release in accordance with the Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act (“FERPA”, 20 United States Code 1233 (g), 34 CFR Part 99.)
For the purpose of these policy restrooms, locker rooms, and areas reserved exclusively for staff use shall be considered a “private area” of the facility and shall not be equipped with video security equipment. The term “non-private area” shall therefore mean any area on school corporation property not meeting the definition of a “private area”.
All speech and conduct in the non-private areas of the school corporation facilities is subject to being observed, recorded, preserved, and examined by means of security video equipment. No person will have a legitimate expectation of privacy with respect to their conduct or speech in the non-private area of a school corporation property.
By this policy, the Board does not mandate or warrant that every non-private location in every school corporation facility will be equipped with security video equipment, nor that the security video equipment will record specific conduct or expression.
LOST OR STOLEN ITEMS
The school is not responsible for any lost or stolen items. Any item on school premises or brought to a school function that is considered inappropriate, misused, or prohibited may be confiscated by school personnel.
DELIVERIES FROM OUTSIDE VENDORS
The school will not accept flowers, balloons, or gift deliveries of any kind for students.
Hamilton Southeastern Schools prohibits criminal organizations and criminal organization activity. "Criminal Organization" means a formal or informal group with at least three members that specifically either:
(1) promotes, sponsors, or assists in; or participates in;
(2) requires as a condition of membership or continued membership; or
(3) has as one of its goals;
the commission of a felony or an act that would be a felony if committed by an adult or the offense of battery.
For more details, HSE’s Criminal Organization Policy is available via the HSE website under Board Docs policy J05.11
Hamilton Southeastern Schools do not insure students for personal injury or for loss or damage to their property. Each family should obtain its own insurance to cover such risks.
Per Board Policy, animals are not permitted in school unless approved either by a teacher in connection with a class assignment, project or demonstration, or by the building principal. Animals can be prohibited from school for various reasons including possible attacks, allergies, and communicable diseases. This includes bringing animals to car rider drop off and pick up. Animals can be unpredictable, even those with the most extensive training.
REPORTING CHILD ABUSE
It is a felony for school officials to fail to report suspected child abuse to the proper authorities. School personnel will report suspected child neglect as well.

Even if I don’t want to I will write about him. There is something to be said for just recording, for making sure that stuff gets remembered. He is gone now and I will never see him again and I only saw him once, just the once, and now that I have blocked his profile on Manhunt and erased his details from my phone I will never see him again. This man, this boy of 25. I could – even if he never did call me daddy – be his daddy. The gap between him and me is bigger than the gap between me and my mother, my mother whom I do not see anymore, who I do not want to see, whose name I have blocked from my phone and from my email address book. And of her, too, I do not want to write. Yes, Proust wrote people out of his life, but at the moment writing seems to be the thing that keeps people alive, that if you write about someone you have to keep having a relationship with them, you conjure them up and you talk to them and you shape them and describe them and it feels like they are here with you and because they are not with you, not really, not in their flesh and their blood, you fill that gap, that nothingness, with guilt and longing and shame and hurt. Nothing good can come of this.
He messaged me on Manhunt a few weeks ago and we exchanged messages. At the time he wanted to come over but I was going out to work or something, maybe to the gym. Last week he messaged me again and I told him to come over. We agreed on 2pm, then closer to the time he texted and said he’d be late. I said come another time, he said but I wanted to see you, I said, fine, you can have an extension.
“And I’m glad I gave you an extension,” I said to him later, in bed, him and I naked and kissing, sitting opposite each other, entwined, my cock in his arse.
“Me, too,” he said. “I’m glad you gave me an extension.”
But on the whole, to be honest, he was interested in a second time. Our exchange over the next few days was cool and reserved. I tried to be lighthearted. I did want to see him again. At the moment, I am not far from being needy. We’d had a nice time, laughed a lot, we seemed to have a similar sense of humour. There was something playful about the way we were with each other. And I liked his tenderness. He was gentle. There was nothing aggressive about him and he didn’t want me to be aggressive. He said that aggression was something he hated, that it turned him off. He didn’t like it when I put my hand around his throat.
“I might forget,” I said, when he asked me not to do that.
“Try to remember,” he said.
Ilario was Italian. A young Italian from somewhere near Venice. He liked older men. His previous boyfriend, who is now a good friend of his mother’s, was fifteen years older than him. I am somewhat more than that. There is that thing when I’m having sex with younger men that I am a bit puzzled why they are having sex with me, with a man much older than them, twenty years, even. I was never attracted to older men when I was their age, and I always felt there was something deeply unequal and coercive, even abusive about those kinds of relationships. Not as a rule; just where I was involved. I always felt when I was having sex with older men – and I did it quite a lot – that I was being forced to do it, that I was having sex against my will, even if I clearly was not. As if there was some kind of unconscious pull to repeat something, compulsively. This was in my early twenties. Later, in my late twenties, I stopped doing this, stopped getting into those kinds of entanglements and situations and started dating men closer to my age. My age or younger. I think when I realised I could attract beautiful men, I went only for them.
Now the beautiful men are in their twenties and I am in my forties and there is a considerable number of men in their twenties who are into men my age. It’s a fact. These men, though, are not very interesting to me, not intellectually, but then, I don’t meet many men of any age who are intellectually interesting to me. Ilario was vaguely interesting. He’d studied psychology at university but gave it up because he thought that being a therapist was “boring”. He didn’t want to listen to other people’s problems all the times. That is a favourite word amongst Italians – “boring” – mainly when they don’t want to go into the details about something, when they don’t want to explore the emotions behind what they’re feeling. Which is what I was doing quite a bit of this evening in my therapy session when the subject of relationships and relating came up, and the subject of my mother, and the subject of the relationship between me and my therapist.
“I’m bored,” I said.
What I really wanted was to close my eyes and go to sleep. I didn’t want to explore or analyse or relate. Though by the end of the session I began to realise that I don’t spend much time relating to myself, that I don’t give myself time to just be with myself, to look at what I really want, what I’m really feeling, or thinking. Like now, taking the time to sit here and just record the details of this encounter with the young Italian man who was gentle and loving but did not want to see me a second time. His last words to me, before I blocked any future communication, were: “Have a nice day.”

The CoverSeal® Difference
Finally an Outdoor Cover that Guarantees All-Weather Protection
Check out the comparison table below to see how CoverSeal® stacks up against conventional outdoor patio furniture covers
|CoverSeal® Patented Outdoor Covers||Competitors|
|Won't Be Removed by Wind|
|Prevents Rodent Entrance|
|Last > 2 Years|
|Protects Against the Elements|
|Easy to Deploy|
|Seals to the Ground|
|No Straps Required to Secure Cover|
|High Temperature Fabric - Withstands up to 300F for BBQ Grills|
Frequently Asked Questions
CoverSeal uses its patented weatherproof/weighted apron to seal the cover to the ground. Rodents, insects and the like are not inclined to lift up the covers edge. They will travel around the cover rather than lift it to go underneath.
The bottom edge apron is completely waterproof it is made of thick >10mil high grade tarp. This material does not degrade sitting on the ground.
The covers are designed to be loose fitting. The main reason is that it allows them to flutter in the wind. Water is trapped in nooks and depressions in most covers, but CoverSeal will billow up in the wind, snapping the excess water off the cover. This feature can be seen on the posted website video.
Silver reflects >90% of the sunlight. It keeps the materials, furniture and barbecues cool. The reflected sunlight also doesnt degrade the color of your cushions and improves the lifetime of the cover, keeping the CoverSeal material in top shape.

Some people will use a 9 inch pie plate or even a square baking dish and make one whole pie, but my favorite way to make them is just like you will find in the grocery store in mini-pie pans. I use my non-stick mini-pie pans over and over again. You can make mini fruit pies and freeze them and I just love to make mini-pumpkin pies too. So before you can start, you must make the dough recipe to cover the pies with. You can use Phyllo dough from the freezer section if you prefer, but nothing spells homemade better than fresh homemade pie crust.
Homemade Flaky Pie Crust
Ingredients - Make 6 Mini Pies or 2 9 inch pie crusts
- 2 cups flour (I use whole wheat for mine, but you can use any flour you prefer)
- 3/4 stick of butter - cold slices
- 1/4 cup vegetable shortening
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup of ice cold water
- Place the flour, shortening and butter in a food processor and pulse slowly until combined. Add in the salt and slowly pour the water in while the processor is mixing on medium.
- When a ball forms, remove from the processor and place in a plastic bag. Place the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour to chill.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and allow to sit on your counter for 15 minutes before rolling out.
Note: If you do not have a food processor, you can cream the flour and butter and shortening by hand or with a fork.
Chicken Pot Pies
- Pie crust dough (recipe above)
- 3 chicken breasts
- Few sprigs of sage or thyme (optional)
- 2 tablespoons of oil
- 2 potatoes
- 1/2 cup of peas
- 2 stalks of celery or I use red peppers
- 2 carrots
- 2 medium size onions (green onions may be substituted)
- 1 small 12 ounce can of evaporated milk
- 2 cups of chicken broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
Place the chicken breast in a medium size saucepan to cook, along with the sage or thyme sprigs. When the chicken is done, place in a food processor and pulse lightly until you have shredded chicken. Remove the chicken from the food processor and set aside.
In the same processor, add in the potatoes, onions, carrots, celery and/or red peppers. Pulse the vegetables lightly to get a rough chop.
Add the oil to a large skillet and heat. Add in the chopped veggies and saute' lightly. Add in the peas and chicken broth. Cook for 10 minutes and then add in the shredded chicken, salt and pepper. Cook another 5 minutes.
Now add in the evaporated milk and reduce the eat to medium and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from the stove to cool. The pie mixture must be cool before topping with the pie crust or the crust will melt.
Spray each mini pay with non-stick spray or grease them liberally with butter. Divide the chicken pie mixture into each pan (6 servings), making sure not to add too much liquid. Take the dough and divide into six pieces and roll out each into a circle and lay the circle on top of the pie pan and seal the edges with a fork or your thumb, pressing down hard against the rim. With a knife, cut off the excess dough.
Place the pot pies in plastic bags and freeze individually until needed or bake now. If you want to bake them now, bake in a preheated hot 400 degree oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until the crust is browned. Make sure to place a few slits in top of each pie to allow the steam to escape.
After the pies are done, allow them to sit for at least 5 to 8 minutes before trying to eat them. Once you have one, you will want one again and again and again.

Plastic Surgery Heidelberg
You are dissatisfied with the results of your surgery?
You are looking for a specialist who can professionally correct the results of your botched “beauty surgery”?
Time and again, patients present in our proaesthetic clinic in Heidelberg who have undergone a failed “beauty surgery” and express the wish for corrective surgery.
Often these are “beauty tourists”, who chose the low-cost option of plastic surgery abroad. Lack of compliance with hygiene regulations, inexperienced doctors, obsolete instruments, etc. are certainly among the most common reasons of such experiences. Not least, these “tourists” lack comprehensive aftercare, which is as important as expert advice in advance.
The list of mistakes is long. Unsightly scars are still the least evil. Selection of cheap or improper implants by no-name manufacturers, poorly operated noses, excessive facelifts – just a few points to be mentioned here.
The more important it is therefore to put one’s trust in a clinic with qualified and experienced physicians. Only an experienced doctor will realize what is possible and feasible, and will not promise the patient unrealistic results.
Our specialists will be pleased to advise you on corrective plastic surgery.

Life at № 42
Remember how the dining room was nearly done? Oops. There’s been a detour.
I wasn’t happy with the balance of the lighting as we sat at the table. The right balance between light and shadow for eating isn’t easy. Especially with new bulbs. We decided indirect light might do the trick – and by coincidence I’d seen a pair of rather spectacular 19th century paintings of North Africa were coming up for auction in Madrid. Very similar in manner to the work of Mariano Fortuny y Marsal (that’s the father of the more famous Fortuny.) They’re done on the scale of a miniature, except incredibly large. Stunning work, very unusual in terms of format. Anyway we decided to go for them and light them as a way to brighten up that wall (which required cutting channels, electrics etc.)
The chairs are back and look just wonderful. Having seen samples of work from various upholsterers, the one I was most impressed with was Christiane Besson just outside Mazamet. She has a good eye and she immediately suggested we do central flowers on each chair, 4 of one kind and 4 of the other for added interest. The result was superb.
Also, I wasn’t terribly happy with the dinner services we brought from Spain in the dining room. They’re in the green family whereas the room is in the blue family. So I found a very attractive Limoges set from the mid 20th century. A very Japanese, Kakiemon style pattern.
And here are some close ups of the paintings:

View Full Version : Ok seroiusly..I need your help, please
Hey there, im a newbie so here is a quick intro, I am a TR fan and love TRII especially, I have clocked TRII in PS a while back, now I have brought a TRII PC game so I could use god mode while in PS you need a gameshark...
So now I have downloaded TR3Cheatwin, the 'very strong' gauge worked at first, then somehow, somthing happened and I wans't able to use that option anymore, here is my problem. (PS I have reinstalled and reloaded the saved game x1000 already)
See? It is blocked out and I can't tick it!
I don't know any God Mode cheats for TR2 on PC. There is a trainer which I never tested (never needed it).
You can check them for yourself Cheats (http://www.cheatscodesguides.com/pc-cheats/tomb-raider-ii/) and Trainer (http://www.megagames.com/cracks/html/t34305_0.htm).
And yes, we can't see the image from the link you posted.
If I'm not mistaken TR3CheatWin is a savegame editor for TR1, 2 and 3. There is another savegames editor for TR1 up to 5. You can find it HERE (http://www.tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/editors.html#programs). Just scroll down untill you see Tomb Raider Savegame Editor (TRSEdit).
Now, you could download savegames for TR2 (and other TR games) from HERE (http://www.tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TR2saves.html) and use TRSEdit instead.
This is a screenshot if the infinite health (very strong) being disabled.
need help plz!^^
I just tested it with a TR2 savegame from Stella's website and it worked just fine.
You can try this:
Remove TR3CheatWin and download it again from HERE (http://macallan.club.fr/index.htm). If it won't work with your save games then download save games from Stella's (http://www.tombraiders.net/stella/savegame/TR2saves.html) site and try it on them. If it works just replace your save games with the ones you downloaded from her site.

David Daniels, RN, knew he wanted to be an emergency department nurse. He went to school and landed his dream job at an academic hospital.
His 32 years and counting as a nurse primarily in hospital EDs has been chaotic — at times brutal, frustrating and demoralizing, with extreme highs and lows. Like many nurses, Daniels has thought about leaving the profession.
David Daniels, RN
But the 61-year-old nurse writer of the new book “Oh, Nurse! One Man’s Journey Through the Nursing Life, a Personal Account of the Highs and Lows,” said despite it all, nursing is a scared profession.
“It’s a very demanding job if you take on the responsibility. You’re there present at a birth. You’re there present at a death,” Daniels said. “You’re dealing with people who really aren’t having the best day in their lives at all. You deal with injury, death and addictions. And it’s really the ER nurse who holds all of that together. It’s challenging, and it can be thankless. You could be working with staff members or physicians who can be very condescending and [you think] why would I do this to myself?”
Even though he regularly deals with tragedies at work, Daniels confirms being a nurse still is the greatest job in the world.
Suited for the ED
The nurse writer said he thrives amid chaos. “It feeds into my mania or something. The busier it is, the faster I’m working, the wider the smile on my face,” he said.
While working in an academic ED, everything flowed like a well-run machine, Daniel said. The physicians were passionate and brilliant, which helped to create an ED culture where physicians and nurses were always learning and worked as a team. “It was just a great place to work,” he said.
His career also has included nursing jobs at hospitals where the culture was very different.
“I really bounced around and got to some places that, to work in that environment, I just couldn’t do it,” Daniels said. “I worked in one emergency room where I had never been around a more dysfunctional group of individuals.”
He said he could never understand some colleagues behavior of allowing charts to stack up and not bringing patient backs. “The truth would be that the one thing they had in common was that they all hated the patients,” the nurse writer added.
Daniels said he doesn’t have a poker face, and when he’d voice his opinion colleagues could see the displeasure with the way patients were being treated. “It didn’t serve me well,” he said.
How nurses can make a difference
The nurse writer shared that one of the saddest stories of his career happened one Christmas Eve. He had finished his 3 to 11 p.m. shift and was leaving to assemble presents for his kids, when Daniels’ manager said they were short-handed and asked if he could work a double.
“It’s Christmas Eve and I wanted to go home but they were stuck — and I have a hard time saying no — so I …read more

Adding images to the

Wrap a navbar in a
.container to center it on a page or add one within to only center the contents of a fixed or static top navbar.
Navbar togglers are left-aligned by default, but should they follow a sibling element like a .navbar-brand, they’ll automatically be aligned to the far right. Reversing your markup will reverse the placement of the toggler.
Sometimes you want to use the collapse plugin to trigger hidden content elsewhere on the page. It works on the id and data-target matching, that’s easily done!

Beautiful house in a great location. Private pebble beach at the end of our garden was just manic. Delighted to find the fridge stocked with the makings of a full Irish brekkie, home made brown bread & cereals. House very clean and comfy too. One small minus is the lack of Wifi in the house. Would definitely recommend Berehaven Lodge for a really relaxing holiday.
Louise - 20/07/2016 18:27:10
Everything was great! We were made most welcome by friendly and helpful staff; the welcome pack was exceptional - far exceeding anything we have had in many other holiday homes; the house was clean, comfortable and equipped to a very high standard; the location, on the shore of the bay was so relaxing. We would really recommend this property and say a big "Thank you" to the staff.
David - 15/11/2015 16:00:29
House was of exceptionally high standard-spotlessly clean and every appliance was high-end. The welcome pack of food was a lovely gesture and saved us heading to the shops until the following morning. The staff were extremely friendly and the restaurant which we used on a couple of occasions was very family friendly. Would definitely return again!
Aine - 29/07/2015 10:37:30
We had an excellent time. We really enjoyed the holiday, everything was of a very high standard at the holiday home. We did not have far to go to visit many many beauty spots. The staff at Berehaven Lodge were very friendly and nice. A memorable holiday. Thanks.Noreen McKeone.

About High Wycombe
The name Wycombe appears to come from the river Wye and the old English word for a wooded valley, “combe”, but according to the Oxford English Dictionary of Place-Names the name, which was first recorded in 799–802 as “Wichama”, is more likely to be Old English “wic” and the plural of Old English “ham”, and probably means “dwellings”; the name of the river was a late back-formation. Wycombe appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 and was noted for having six mills. The town once featured a Roman villa (built 150–170 AD) which has been excavated three times, most recently in 1954. Mosaics and a bathhouse were unearthed at the site on what is now the Rye parkland. High Wycombe was the home of 19th-century Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli.

The Caribbean is an excellent holiday destination all year round, although some hotels close during September and October (see hotel details for exact closing dates). The temperature remains fairly constant at between 75 - 85 degrees fahrenheit, winter and summer, with a high level of humidity.
The most popular time to travel is from the middle of December until the middle of May, allowing visitors to take advantage of the pleasant temperatures and dry conditions. The average amount of sun ranges from 6 to 8 hours a day, while the prevailing wind is the northeasterly tradewind.
The summer months are generally the wettest, with brief yet intense showers occuring from July to November. Some of the islands can be in the path of tropical storms, with hurricanes a possibility particularly for the northern islands.

Rationale Cardiomyocyte cell death plays a causal role in heart failure therefore its inhibition poses a promising therapeutic approach. However, investment is undermined due to poor translation and cardiotoxicity. Here, we describe validation of a potential target; mitogen activated protein 4 kinase kinase kinase kinase (MAP4K4).
Methodology/Results 4 weeks pressure overload (TAC; transverse aortic constriction) in alphaMyHC-MAP4K4 mice (cardiomyocyte-specific over-expression) induced apoptosis (3.60 %+1.01 TUNEL-positive cardiomyocytes, n=5, p<0.05 to wildtype (WT) littermates; 0.53 %+0.19, n=5). Peri-vascular fibrosis and upregulation of autophagy markers Beclin1 and LC3 (associated with heart failure) was evident only in TG-TAC mice (p<0.05 to WT-TAC). Systolic function assessed by pressure-volume loops (shams n=6, TAC-TG n=9, TAC-WT n=10) showed unaffected contractility and compliance in WT-TAC mice although relaxation was impaired (Tau, p<0.05). In contrast, TG-TAC mice had significantly impaired compliance (Emax, p<0.01), contractility (Ees-ESPVR, p<0.01) and relaxation (Tau, p<0.01).
Inhibition of MAP4K4, by siRNA-mediated knockdown or pharmacologically (selective in-house novel compound; 5 out of 141 kinases inhibited) was cardioprotective in rat neonatal and human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes subjected to oxidative stress (H202) or C2-ceramide (measured by loss of membrane integrity, Caspase 3 activity, hypodiploid DNA).
Conclusions MAP4K4 drives cardiomyocyte cell death and dysfunction, thus poses an attractive target in heart failure. Our novel compound, validated in human and mouse models, represents a start-point for further development with improved translational potential.

Marriage equality opponents Bishop Harry Jackson and conservative group Alliance Defense Fund have filed a lawsuit against the D.C. Board of Elections and Ethics who ruled Tuesday that a Prop 8-style initiative called the "Marriage Initiative of 2009", which would have defined marriage as between one man and one women for the District, could not proceed.
“The people of D.C. have a right to vote on the definition of marriage,” said ADF Senior Legal Counsel Austin R. Nimocks in their press release. “The D.C. Charter guarantees the people the right to vote, and the council cannot amend the charter for any reason, much less to deny citizens the right to vote. ADF will defend the right of the residents of our nation’s capitol to participate in a legitimate democratic process in the district.”
They're claiming that they are defending the rights of voters. Hmm . . . defending the rights of some to take away the rights of others. Brilliant logic!
In July, Bishop Jackson attempted to get an initiative started to thwart the District's bill to recognize legal same-sex marriage performed outside its borders. Both the board and DC Superior Court Judge Retchin ruled against them, basing their decision on the District's Human Rights Act which bars discrimination based on sexual orientation.
Today the Washington Post released a profile on Bishop Jackson, in which he admits that he always knew that the battle of the new bill to legalize marriage equality within D.C. itself would head to the Superior Court. "The Lord is in all this," the bishop claims. "All over the country, it's evident that the strategy of the radical gay movement is to work the courts and legislatures. It's gonna be a knock-down, drag-out legal situation."
This should raise some red flags. Back in July, when the bishop and fellow opponents lost their case in D.C.'s Superior Court, they opted out of appealing to the D.C. Court of Appeals. Yet it seems clear that they intend to this time and this could be biggest hurdle facing the District's marriage bill.
Back in 1995, it was this court that ruled in Dean vs. the District of Columbia against granting a gay couple a marriage license. Yet Superior Court Judge Retchin stated in her July ruling, "The Court in Dean did not consider whether the government could refuse to recognize the legal right of persons to remain married solely because of their sexual orientation. In fact, the Court in Dean could not have addressed this issue because when Dean was decided in 1995, no state had legalized same-sex marriage."
Hopefully the D.C. Court of Appeals agrees.
Further into the Washington Post piece, Bishop Jackson reiterates the illogical conclusions that the high crime and divorce rates in the African American community, which he claims undermines traditional family values, is due largely in part by abortions and gay marriages.
"I don't know of anybody black who says, 'I hate gay people.' We're more accepting generally. But you overlap that -- homosexuality and gay marriage -- with broken families, and we don't know how to put it back together."
OK. So my desire to marry my fiance is going to destroy family after family? My desire to have a family of my own is going to rip apart other families in D.C. and other parts of the country because . . . well, he doesn't really say. I understand that many men in the African American community are on the down-low, which sadly has caused many problems, including broken families and the spread of HIV. But this problem is completely separate from out gay couples wanting to make a lifetime, legally recognized commitment to their relationship. The bishop continues with some shoddy spinning by quipping that redefining marriage redefines family, which will send the black culture into a free fall.
But what the bishop ignores is the fact that same-sex couples have existed for thousands of years, and they have had families this entire time. Where's the destruction of society? Just because the LGBT civil rights movement has made the country more aware of their existence, doesn't mean they suddenly appeared out of nowhere and are a new, impending threat to what he calls "traditional values."
And if I remember correctly, we're not the ones that redefined marriage in the law books of 31 states as "between one man and one woman." Before, this distinction wasn't made, which is why same-sex couples demanded marriage certificates and why the courts ordered they be given. It took anti-LGBT forces to redefine the legal, civil definition of marriage, to actively bar LGBT citizens from marrying.

Having commented and activated a link to my twitter account I thought I would post something that came out of a happy meeting from my blog travels and comments yesterday. Siena is a city we love and have visited on two separate occasions. Its history, beauty, art and people make it a very special place indeed. How happy I was to come across Magdalena’s wonderful blog Just Visit Siena ! Everything you could ever want to know about this beautiful city is here. Explore Magdalena’s blog and you will be on the next plane, train or automobile!
Here is my comment to Magdalena:
So happy to have found your blog of one of my favourite cities; so many wonderful memories. I will never forget the remarkable frescoes by Domenico di Bartoli in the Ospedale Santa Maria della Scala. Looking forward to following you and to returning to your beautiful city again one day.
And here are a few of our photo memories to encourage you to go:

Released last week, The Guitar Collection: George Harrison is a new app exclusively for iPad that offers users a fascinating, up-close-and-personal, completely interactive look at Harrison's most historic guitars.
Through unique 360-degree imaging, rare audio and archival photography, the app highlights the sound and look of each classic guitar - instruments that should be familiar to millions of Beatles fans, such as Harrison's Gretsch Duo Jet, his Fender 'Rocky' Stratocaster, the Rickenbacker 360/12 heard on A Hard Day's Night and more.
Created by Bandwidth Publishing in conjunction with Harrison's estate, the app offers in-depth guitar descriptions and song histories, introductory audio from Harrison himself, and video footage of Ben Harper, Mike Campbell, Josh Homme, Gary Moore and Dhani Harrison showing off the guitars' different textures and tones. TV personality (and noted guitar geek) Conan O'Brien appears in the app's video section - he appears positively awestruck holding George's '57 Gretsch Duo Jet (see below).
How to win one of the five apps
UPDATE: the competition is now closed.
It's simple: just head over to MusicRadar's Facebook page and answer a George Harrison-related question. The first five correct answers win. Just be sure that we can contact you via Facebook. Winners will be awarded codes that will allow them to download the apps through iTunes or Apple's App Store.

I'm not the most intimate with computer workings, but isn't the main issue with DF processing speed, not really the memory size? Does this change have any worthwhile effect on speed?
I believe many people are having trouble with worldgen crashing on large worlds or particularly long histories as they RAM usage of the program is exceeding 2GB. This is the default upper limit for a normal windows program I think, hence the crash. The file in the OP flags the EXE so windows "knows"(?) the program can use 4GB of RAM (3GB in XP) and won't crash when the normal upper limit of 2GB is reached. I'm pretty certain it should have practically no impact on the actual speed of worldgen as that is pretty much exclusively tied to your CPU.
Skyrim had a similar problem when people started installing loads of custom high texture packs etc, hence the Skyrim reference in the OP. My knowledge of the specifics is a bit ropey too so take the above explanation with a pinch of salt. I do find it hilarious that the new DF with it's super high fidelity graphics
is having the same problem as Skyrim though. All hail Toady, Bethesda needed mods added to achieve this.
Edit: Kind of missed the point there didn't I. I don't want to contradict the author but I kind of agree that Dwarf Fortress game speed is not very RAM dependent as far as I know. I assume it should help with large embarks/adventure mode area transitions and things though, basically anything where the game is loading lots of information to and from memory rather than simulating tantrums/combat etc.
Edit 2: Hope I haven't made a fool of myself sounding like an expert when I'm not. Anyway, just wanted to say thank you very much for posting this Anticheese, it is just what I was looking for.

Capt Phil Harris recently stopped in at Poppy’s Fish, Poultry, & more in Northern California! Over 500 locals showed up to chat and pose for pics with the Cornelia Marie Skipper!
Capt. Phil Harris, left, visited fellow fisherman Michael Castelan at his fish market in downtown Morgan Hill Friday night. (photo courtesy of Morgan Hill Times)
Marilyn Dubil writes…Piloting the crab boat “Cornelia Marie” through the troubled waters of the Bering Sea may be less hazardous than wading through the waves of fans that showed up Friday night to meet Capt. Phil Harris of the Discovery Channel’s popular reality show “Deadliest Catch” at Poppy’s Fish, Poultry & More.
More than 500 Morgan Hill residents and outsiders visited the downtown market to meet and have their picture taken with the crusty commercial fisherman, known for his easy-going manner…

Game company Square Enix said it did not lose data when its fan member site was hacked last week.
The company took down the server containing almost 2 million records of Japanese and European users after it discovered the unauthorised intrusion.
"Square Enix has now determined that user login credentials were not accessed. Moreover, we have not found evidence that the individual was able to access any personal information at all," the company said in a statement.
"We have reported this incident to the Japanese Government."
The site will be made live over the coming week.
The hack follows an earlier attack in May this year when the CVs of 350 job applicants 25,000 email addresses were stolen from Eidos Interactive, subsidiary of Square Enix.

Brand new direct from maker Randy Doucette this custom Interceptor is a big, bad multi-ground beast of a folder. The hand-ground blade is satin finished and features multiple grinds including an upper swedge and cutouts in the edge. It has aggressive appeal for sure and flies out of the handle on a caged bearings pivot system.
The contoured handle's ergo's are off the chart. There is a strategically placed spot welcoming every finger including your thumb. It's base consists of two thick slabs of purple anodized titanium, jeweled on the inside. One creates back vault-like lockup. Dual carbon fiber bolsters marry perfectly with red C-Tek honeycomb scales. The color combo is quite impressive.
Bringing this custom package together is a carved carbon fiber pocket clip for right hand tip-up carry and carbon fiber backspacer. At over 9 inches overall, the Interceptor is large and in charge. It's well balanced, comfortable and just plain looks killer. It will be a stand out in any collection and definitely a badass blade shape not found in many.
This Interceptor is a "true" custom knife as Randy performs all work by hand without the use of a CNC machine.

Teen Dating Violence
Warning Signs and Prevention
Recent news stories of teen dating violence highlight a common problem which is on the rise in teen relationships across all communities. Teen dating violence is a pattern of physically, sexually, verbally, and/or emotionally abusive behaviors that one person uses to exercise power and control over another person in a dating relationship.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that one out of every ten teenagers has experienced some form of dating violence, either in the form of physical, emotional or sexual abuse. However, according to Vladimir Albin Jr., a youth team coordinator for the Boston-based domestic violence advocacy support group Close To Home, the majority of teenage dating violence goes unreported or under-reported. "Because there are so many different kinds of abuse and because teenagers have less experience in romantic relationships," he says, "a victim may not realize a relationship is abusive or abnormal. " Adolescents are not always aware that what they're experiencing is teen dating violence.
Emily Rothman, a domestic violence researcher at the Boston University School of Public Health stresses that many parents are unaware of the dangers of teen dating violence and how they can help prevent it. "We learned years ago that the right time to start talking to kids is before they're in a relationship," she says. Parents should start teaching about healthy relationships starting in preschool. "Adults need to promote the idea that kids shouldn't be violent or controlling with anyone and that everyone deserves respect in any kind of relationship," she says. The ultimate goal is to stop dating violence before it starts. During the preteen and teen years, young people are learning skills they need to form positive relationships with others. This is an ideal time to promote healthy relationships and communication skills and prevent patterns of dating violence that can last into adulthood.*
Parents also need to make teens aware of warning signs in a relationship. These extend beyond obvious physical abuse such as slaps, pinches, pushes, punches and beatings. Insults and humiliating put-downs can also be a sign of abuse. Control and jealousy can become apparent in a teen relationship in the form of constant texting or phone calls to check up on a partner's whereabouts, or pressure to withdraw from other relationships with friends or loved ones. These are emotionally abusive behaviors, and can be just as damaging and just as restricting as physically abusive behaviors.
With such high incidence of dating violence among young people, it is possible that someone's teen or someone they know could be in an unhealthy relationship. While sudden changes in a teen's attitude or behavior could be a normal, natural part of development, they also may indicate an unhealthy relationship. To help keep teens safe, here are some important dating violence safety tips and facts for parents and teenagers from the Children's Hospital Boston's Center for Young Women's Health.
Parents: Here are possible warning signs that may indicate a teen is involved in an unhealthy dating relationship:

- Your teen is experiencing any of the following: failing grades or dropping out of school activities; difficulty making decisions; sudden changes in mood or personality; depression; being unusually secretive.
- Your teen is avoiding spending time with friends.
- You notice unexplained bruises, scratches, or other injuries.
- Your teen has significant changes in eating or sleeping habits, is avoiding eye contact or family conversation.
Teens: Here are possible warning signs that may indicate an unhealthy dating relationship:
- Unwanted physical contact, in any form (such as hitting, shoving, pinching).
- A boyfriend/girlfriend is jealous or possessive-he or she gets angry when partner talks or hangs out with other friends, or people of the opposite sex.
- Boyfriend/girlfriend is controlling, bossy, makes all the decisions, doesn't ask for input.
- Tells partner what or what not to wear, who they can or can't talk to, where they can or can't go.

- Blames partner for his or her problems, or tells partner that it's their fault that they are violent.
- Insults or tries to embarrass partner in front of other people.
- Calls or texts to check up on partner all the time and always wants to know where partner is going and who partner is with.
Though media attention on this topic tends to focus on young, heterosexual women, dating violence is not specific to gender or sexual orientation. For information on dating violence from a young man's perspective, parents can visit the Center for Young Men's Health website to access information, tips and guidelines to determine the safety of a relationship and evaluate partner behaviors.

Everyone has the right to feel safe and loved, without emotional anguish or the threat of violence. If a teen is concerned that they may be in an unhealthy relationship, ending that relationship in a safe way may take some planning. It is important for teens to speak with a trusted adult who can help them decide the next course of action. Parents should let their adolescents know that they love them and are available to help them make healthier, safer and better-informed decisions about their dating relationships.
