This week we scoured the VMworld show for the most salient news for Softchoice clients, some of which we released over the past few days.
Visibility of the physical and virtual layers of the data center is a thorn in the side of administrators. With a new release of vRealize Suite, VMware's focus is aimed squarely at helping overcome that challenge. | {

Q: Can't stop the particles from overshooting I am trying to create a simple particle simulation. There are two types of particles static and moving. Static particles attract moving particles towards their centre. Static particles have a strength attribute which dictates how hard they are pulling the moving particles
var angle:Number = Math.atan2(moving.y - static.y , moving.x - static.x);
var dist = Point.distance(new Point(moving.x,moving.y) , new Point(static.x,static.y));
moving.velX += Math.cos(angle + Math.PI) * static.strength / dist;
moving.velY += Math.sin(angle + Math.PI) * static.strength / dist;
The problem is a when a particle is just passing through the centre the distance is very small that results in very large velocity values.
I added an extra check for distance before calculating velocity.
if (dist < 1)
dist = 1;
But the problem still persists. I cant figure out the problem.
Here is a snapshot of an overshoot happening.
A: You are probably declaring that dist value before running the dist calculation or after running the vel calculation. Instead, make sure that the dist check you are doing is between the dist calculation and the vel calculation. Vesper is correct as well, in that to get the correct force effect, it should use the distance squared. But even doing that, you can still get undesirable (although completely accurate, mathematically) results.
var angle:Number = Math.atan2(moving.y - static.y , moving.x - static.x);
var dist = Point.distance(new Point(moving.x,moving.y) , new Point(static.x,static.y));
if (dist < 1) dist = 1; // just make sure your constraint goes here.
moving.velX += Math.cos(angle + Math.PI) * static.strength / dist / dist; // this uses dist squared
moving.velY += Math.sin(angle + Math.PI) * static.strength / dist / dist; // but don't use this method in addition to Vesper's or you'll have dist to the power of 4.
A: Normal force fields use square of distance as modifier, you here use single power of distance, of course the force field performs differently. You should change the var dist line to the following:
var dist:Number = (moving.x-static.x)*(moving.x-static.x) + (moving.y-static.y)*(moving.y-static.y);
This way dist will hold square of actual distance, so dividing by dist would give you the proper force field configuration.
And, please rename static, as it's a reserved word in AS3.

This chapter addresses the role of new customers in developing innovation spaces, focusing upon base-of-the-pyramid (BOP) customers in India and the response of domestic and foreign enterprises and institutions to this group. Foreign direct investment (FDI) in research and development (R & D) from US and European companies in emerging economies are drawing an increasing amount of attention in the literature. Historically, multinational corporation's (MNC) R & D operations with a focus on innovation were located in their home country. However, in recent years, open innovation has pushed MNCs to have global innovation networks. China and India with their large markets and success stories of their homegrown emerging multinationals in certain industries, especially information technology (IT) and pharmaceuticals, have become major destinations of FDI in R & D. | {

Heat 4-5 tablespoons of olive oil in a deep pan or shallow casserole and sauté the pork slices until brown on all sides. Then transfer the pork on a platter using a perforated spatula. Stick the cloves to the onions and place them into the casserole / pan with the olive oil.
Replace the pork into the casserole / pan and add the wine. Add the cinnamon and the salt. Cook over moderate heat for 5 minutes and then add one cup of water. Simmer the meal and onions for 30-40 min. with the casserole/pan covered, until the meat is half done. If you establish that the sauce is not enough, add a little water.
Wash, clean, cub and deseed the quinces. Also, remove hard fiber from their core. Sauté the quinces in olive oil until golden brown on all sides.
Heat the oven at 180oC. Transfer the meat, quinces and onion into a pyrex dish or clay pot. Sprinkle the quinces with half the sugar quantity. Pour the sauce over the meal and sprinkle with the rest of sugar.
Cover the pyrex dish or clay pot with lid or aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes. Occasionally, baste the meat and quinces with the sauce to keep them moist. Serve warm. | {

An incredibly romantic and luxurious tailor-made safari for newlyweds on their honeymoon. Madagascar is the ideal location for this memorable holiday combining private lodges within reserves and beaches throughout the country.
A truly romantic 14 day tailor-made safari exploring some of the most breath-taking areas Madagascar has to offer- from £4,395 per person sharing excluding international flights.
A stunning, luxury honeymoon safari which begins taking in the sights and sounds of the boutique beach retreat of Princesse Bora Lodge, which is also the best spot for whale watching excursions between July and September. Then you can witness the morning calls of the Indri through the mist shrouded forests of Andasibe and the pristine beach relaxation and private nature reserve of Relais and Chateaux, Anjajavy.
Luxurious and romantic accommodation in wildlife-rich areas.
Watch for magnificent humpback whales at Ile Sainte Marie.
Meet a huge range of Madagascar's endemic wildlife, from lemurs to chameleons.
Beach relaxation in the private nature reserve of Anjajavy.
Enjoy both sumptuous lodges and incredible wildlife encounters on your honeymoon.
On arrival into Antananarivo airport you will be met and welcomed to Madagascar by your personal driver and guide who will show you to your private vehicle. You will then transfer to your hotel to relax after your flight.
You will fly from Tana to Ile Sainte Marie and Princesse Bora Lodge. This is a fantastic location for some beach relaxation and exploration. Located in a palm grove along a white sandy beach this is the perfect place to relax and reminisce after the excitement of your wedding!
Relax for the next few days in this idyllic setting. A variety of activities are possible including diving (PADI lessons are available), snorkelling and simply relaxing by the pool. A highlight of your stay here is the opportunity to go whale watching; during the months of June – September hundreds of humpback whales come to this area for breeding. Up to 15m in length this is a spectacular opportunity to experiences these mammals up close and personal as you visit them with the research team and help them to collect vital research data.
Today you have a return flight to Tana where you will be met by your driver and private vehicle and transfer to your hotel. A chance to relax upon arrival or alternatively explore the atmospheric city of Tana and enjoy a romantic meal while you're here.
This morning you travel east to the beautiful reserve of Andasibe. Depending on your time of arrival you can explore the park or alternatively relax back at the lodge. In the evening a chance to go on a night walk to see what nocturnal fauna and flora you can spot!
Enjoy exploring Andasibe/Perinet National Park with your local wildlife guide. A montane forest park offering the chance to spot a variety of lemurs, reptiles and birds. One of its most famous inhabitants is the Indri; this is the largest of all lemurs with a teddy bear like appearance. You hear the Indri before you see them and it is best to leave early morning to be near the Indri when they make their distinctive morning group communication calls. Other lemurs which can be seen here are the red-bellied lemur, brown lemur, lesser bamboo lemur, with nocturnal lemurs - brown mouse lemur, greater dwarf lemur, Eastern woolly lemur, sportive lemur, aye-aye.
A relaxing morning and maybe a last chance to explore Andasibe prior to a leisurely drive back to Tana in time for your onward flight in the morning.
In the morning transfer to the airport for the private flight to Anjajavy resort. This unique hotel cannot be accessed by road so you are flown directly to the private airstrip. Located approximately 120km north of Majunga and on the Mozambique Channel.
The next couple of days are at your disposal to relax and explore this unique area. Optional excursions include: water skiing, snorkelling, windsurfing, catamarans, fishing, boat excursions, visits to the local villages and a variety of walks to admire the local fauna and flora (chameleons, Sifaka lemur (Verreaux's propithecus), the bird of paradise and Cuvier's oplure (a type of iguana) and the fish eagle). The hotel also has a freshwater pool, a boutique and benefits from some excellent cuisine which is a mix of both western and Malagasy flavours.
A relaxing morning prior to your flight back to Tana, where you will be met upon arrival and transferred to the airport in time for your onward flight.
This is a luxurious tailor-made honeymoon safari that can be adjusted and redesigned around your wants, needs and budget. Not exclusively for honeymooners, it also makes a wonderfully romantic holiday for any couple. Accommodation has been selected for proximity to wildlife first, and luxurious attributes second. | {

– USA, NY – Andela, the company that builds high-performing engineering teams with Africa's most talented software developers, today announced that the company has secured $40M in Series C funding. The investment was led by pan-African venture firm CRE Venture Capital with participation from DBL Partners, Amplo, Salesforce Ventures, and Africa-focused TLcom Capital. Existing investors, including Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, GV, and Spark Capital, also participated. The round, which marks one of the largest investments ever led by an African venture firm into an Africa-based company, brings Andela's total venture funding to just over $80M.
With offices in Lagos, Nigeria, Nairobi, Kenya, and Kampala, Uganda, Andela has hired 500 developers to date — the top 0.7% of more than 70,000 applicants from across the continent. Selected developers spend six months in a rigorous on boarding program before being matched with one of Andela's partner companies as full-time engineering team members. Beyond recruiting elite development talent, Andela is catalyzing the growth of tech ecosystems across the continent by open-sourcing its content and partnering with organizations including Google and Pluralsight to provide resources and mentorship to developers.
Andela will use the capital to fuel its aggressive expansion plans. The company aims to launch offices in two additional African countries over the next year, doubling its developer base from 500 to 1,000 to meet growing demand. Alongside this round, Pule Taukobong of CRE, Julia Gillard, former Australian Prime Minister and Amplo Board Partner, and Omobola Johnson, Senior Partner at TLcom and former Minister of Communication Technology in Nigeria, will be joining Andela's board.
Andela is a network of technology leaders dedicated to advancing human potential. We help companies build high-performing engineering teams by investing in Africa's most talented software developers. Backed by CRE Venture Capital, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and Spark Capital, Andela is catalyzing the growth of tech ecosystems across the African continent while solving the global technical talent shortage.
CRE Venture Capital partners with and invests in visionary entrepreneurs building category-defining tech companies in Africa. Founded by Pule Taukobong and Pardon Makumbe, CRE taps into its relationships and experience to help founders build African tech companies with global relevance and impact. Current investments include Andela, Flutterwave, Rensource, Yoco and Oradian. | {

California estimates it would lose $24 billion by decade's end under GOP health plan
California would lose $24.3 billion annually in federal funding by 2027 for low-income health coverage under the current Republican plan to replace the Affordable Care Act, according to a state analysis released Wednesday.
The bill, up for a vote in the House on Thursday, represents a "massive and significant fiscal shift" from the federal to state governments by setting caps on Medicaid spending, reducing the amount of money available for new enrollees and eliminating other funding for hospitals and Planned Parenthood, the analysis said.
"It's really devastating," said Mari Cantwell, state Medicaid director with the California Department of Health Care Services, who co-wrote the analysis. "It raises some serious questions about whether we can continue to operate the program the way we do today."
Her boss, department director Jennifer Kent, went further: "It's challenging to see how it would not … jeopardize the entire program."
The analysis, based on internal cost, utilization and enrollment data, was done by the health care services department and the Department of Finance and was shared with California's congressional delegation.
In 2020 alone, the analysis estimated, the state would lose $6 billion; by 2027, the annual loss would reach $24.3 billion.
Kent said that when faced with shortfalls in the past, the state has made cuts to optional benefits such as adult dental care. The state also could set lower provider rates, or restrict who is eligible. "These are all decisions that California and other states would have to grapple with in the future if this were to be adopted as it is proposed today," she said.
The impact would vary, of course, depending on the state's fiscal health.
The Republican bill, called the American Health Care Act, would dramatically change funding for the Medicaid program, known as Medi-Cal in California. Since its inception, Medicaid funding has been open-ended, based on need. Under the new bill, federal money would be capped either through block grants or fixed per-capita amounts.
Sally Pipes, president of the San Francisco-based Pacific Research Institute, said the Medicaid expansion was too costly and should have never been included in the Affordable Care Act. "These programs are not sustainable, unless you are going to tremendously increase taxes on the middle class," she said.
Pipes said Medicaid funding should be converted from entitlements into block grants and states should be left to decide how to structure their programs. "More and more people are thinking they are entitled to this and entitled to that and these programs are expensive and not efficient," she said.
Pipes said the cuts to Medi-Cal and the restructuring of the program will be better for the California economy.
California was among the most aggressive states in the nation in implementing the Affordable Care Act, and the majority of new enrollees came through Medi-Cal.
Medi-Cal now provides coverage to 13.5 million low-income residents, about half of California's children and a third of the adults. About 3.7 million people of those became newly eligible for the publicly funded health coverage through the Affordable Care Act. That helped reduce the state's uninsurance rate from 17 percent in 2013 to about 7 percent in 2016, according to the UC Berkeley Labor Center for Education and Research.
The public insurance program is funded jointly by California and the federal government and provides health, dental, mental health, long-term care and other services. The Affordable Care Act allowed states to expand their Medicaid programs in 2014 to low-income childless adults, and the federal government is paying nearly all the costs for those new beneficiaries.
The bill could put hospitals, clinics and other providers in a tenuous financial position by forcing them to live within the cost limits while at the same time seeing more uninsured patients, the analysis said.
The California Hospital Association did its own analysis and concluded that at least three million people would lose coverage under the GOP plan, and hospitals could see their bad debt and charity care increase by $3 billion per year.
"As more people lose coverage, they are still going to have health issues, and the hospital is the only place in the health care system required under federal law to provide care," said Jan Emerson-Shea, vice president of external affairs for the association.
Health officials estimated that Medi-Cal costs would exceed per-capita caps by nearly $680 million in 2020, with the gap growing to $5.28 billion by 2027. That spending limit could have a "devastating and chilling effect" on any increases in provider payments or plan rates, according to the analysis.
The state also expects an additional $3.3 billion in costs in 2020, growing to $13 billion by 2027, because of a change that reduces federal funds for new enrollees and for people who have a break in coverage. The bill would require certain beneficiaries to renew coverage every six months rather than once a year, which state officials say will cause many to lose their coverage.
According to the analysis, the state would face additional losses from other federal cuts, including to a program that pays for in-home care for elderly and disabled residents. In addition, the proposed freeze on federal funding to organizations that provide abortions would make the state responsible for $400 million in payments to Planned Parenthood, which serves more than 600,000 people in Medi-Cal and a state family planning program.
A new study by UC Berkeley's Labor Center released Wednesday also warned of dramatic cuts in federal Medi-Cal funding that would threaten coverage for low-income adults. The center estimated that the state would have to increase spending by $10 billion each year to maintain coverage for those who became eligible for coverage under the Affordable Care Act. Without that funding, the researchers wrote, 3.7 million people could lose coverage by 2027.
Ken Jacobs, chair of the center, said the Republican plan would also result in job losses because of reduced federal funding. Jacobs said both the center's and the state's calculations point to a significant financial impact on California if the GOP bill becomes law.
"It's hard to see where else in the state budget this could be pulled from," he said. "This would be a very big hit on the budget, the health system and the economy of California. … And the implications for people's health are serious."

I quit my job to be a stay at home mom!
Simply put, it is equal parts exciting and terrifying…but more than anything it was the right choice for myself and my family. I never in a million years pictured myself as a stay at home mom. Then I had Oliver and all my priorities in life shifted. My job is great, but nothing can replace being a good mom to my son.
I do not know exactly what this transition is going to look like. But next week will be my last week going to work. I can't say I will miss the commute, but I will miss my work friends. And I will miss having an income. But I am really really looking forward to spending time with Oliver and Charlie!
Telling people you are quitting your job to be a stay at home mom is such a weird thing. I was asked so many times if I found a new job closer to home or if I was going to keep looking for jobs near home. I think my biggest fear in giving my two weeks notice was the fear of fielding the questions that would inevitably follow. Nobody actually had anything negative to say, but I would be lying if I said I didn't go into the whole thing feeling super defensive.
A stay at home mom schedule is a huge priority for me! So comment below if you have one because I need so advice and input. I'll be sharing what I come up with soon so stay tuned for that!
I am really excited to make this blog and my other creative pursuits a priority. Obviously Oliver is my number one priority, but I have been brainstorming my time management to help me be a good mom while also making time for the other things I am passionate about.
That about wraps up my feelings on this transition. At least for these five minutes. I am sure my brain will overthink a few more aspects in an hour or so. But the important part is that I am going to have the opportunity to be home with my son and to watch him grow. And that is pretty dang awesome.
Are you a stay at home mom? What made you decide to take the plunge? And what is your #1 piece of advice for me? | {

FATAL FEMMES: Tiffany Valentine-Ray; A Modern Day Mary Shelley

My mother always said love was supposed set you free. But that's not true, Chucky. I've been a prisoner of my love for you for a very long time. Now it's payback time.
–Tiffany, Bride of Chucky
She's a lover, a bride, a mother, a serial killer (with great instincts I might add!), a homemaker, and an improv artist. She traditional, she's trendy, she's stylistic, she's sadistic, she's sweet…until you cross her. Then you're dead.
Tiffany Valentine-Ray is portrayed by no other than the lovely human being, actress, & world famous poker player, Ms. Jennifer Tilly, and created by the talented and wonderful writer, director, producer, Don Mancini. She is one of the few female serial killer/slashers in existence in the horror genre. She may be the *Bride* of Chucky; but this fatal femme stands pretty grounded on her own two feet.
From gathering Chucky's dollish remains, to channeling Martha Stewart, to helping her hot headed husband with his homicidal/human poaching shenanigans, Tiffany has proven to be both a boon and a kindred spirit to Chucky.
It's no doubt Tiffany is a catalyst for Chucky's evolution spanning all six films; pieces of his background and personality we didn't know existed about human Charles Lee Ray were revealed to us through his interactions with her throughout Bride of Chucky, and it's sequel, Seed of Chucky.
But this dame isn't to be underestimated, nor tampered with.
….Seriously, don't tamper with her or you'll die.
Just ask this guy…..
He was a collaborated kill, but that's not the point! Don't. Tamper. With. Tiffany.
She seems sweet on the outside, but inside, a darker core takes shape.
She takes pleasure in murdering people; just like Chucky. It's one commonality they both share, and one that binds them together: The joy they take in killing people gives the both of them an energetic rush. …And more. Just watch Seed of Chucky; specifically this scene where they're murdering Tony Gardner's character and you'll know exactly what I mean.
…I mean…come on…they're serial killers…so that's pretty much a given.
Tiffany herself is like a modern day Mary Shelley.
When Tiffany wants something she goes after it; full force with a vision and a plan…and God help the person that gets in her way and lives to tell the tale. …Because I'm guessing not many have.
But I'm pretty sure that if someone did live through an attempt by her on their life what a fascinating story that would be.
We see this Mary Shelleyesque aspect of Tiffany in Bride of Chucky with her pulling strings in order to recover Chucky's doll remains, left over by the events of Child's Play 3 at the beginning of Bride of Chucky. We see it even more prominent in Seed of Chucky with Tiffany basically running the show; coming up with the idea of Chucky impregnating Jennifer Tilly, and then Tiffany transferring her soul into Jennifer after the birth, as well as assigning bodies for Chucky and Glen(da).
Starting with piecing together her beloved Chucky; she tries (in what she thinks is in vain) to resurrect her deadly boyfriend. She succeeds; but not without consequences. Her beloved monster takes her and brings her down to his level. Literally. Since becoming a doll–and later succeeding at becoming human again in the form of Jennifer Tilly– she's been very clever in pulling together her resources.
Tiffany's all "You son of a bitch! You made me a brunette!" But not before flailing her head dramatically. 😉
These things don't come with warning labels, ya know?
In a way, she's served as both a version of Dr. Frankenstein and the Bride of the monster, Frankenstein
Tiffany takes great care in making sure things are taken care of.
There is no doubt in my mind that Tiffany worked very heavily behind the scenes in Curse of Chucky to help him achieve the goal of taking out the Pierce family. I'm sure the fictional Jennifer Tilly's fortune has helped speed that process along as well. We know she had a hand in shipping him to various locations; yet I'm sure she also had a hand in putting on his 'freshly non-stitched' face.
Since coming into the picture in Bride of Chucky, Tiffany's brought structure to her and Chucky's lives; and murderous escapades. She makes sure Chucky's not all over the place or 'out of it,' as he states in Bride of Chucky. We find that he works quite well with Tiffany as a team.
In turn, Chucky has become more humanized over the course of the series. He's still the monster we're intrigued by, but with more layers revealed and added to his persona. Chucky has become invested in the lives of his family; being wife/lover, Tiffany, and children, Glen & Glenda over the course and evolution of the last three films. I have no doubt in my mind that his relationship with Tiffany ignited these feelings, starting in Bride of Chucky.
Like Paul Dini & Bruce Timm introduced a new side of the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series by putting him in a relationship with Harley Quinn; the same can be said for introducing Tiffany into Chucky's life.
Romantic relationships, no matter what form they take, have a way of revealing layers of a characters core personality. It's even more interesting when we take a character we know to be evil, cruel, & monstrous and put them in a relationship. We get to see how they navigate the waters of dealing with relating to another person they may care about on some level; even if it appears they don't.
When I was taking screenwriting classes in NYC with the Gotham Writers Group, I had an instructor lecture us about character relationships and how they move a story forward. My instructor, Doug Katz mentioned to us that–just like in life–every character relationship is a give and take, give and take, etc. "I do for you. You do for me. I do for you. You do for me," he would tell us, like a mantra to always keep in mind when writing characters in relationships.
In Bride of Chucky, what does Tiffany desire out of Chucky, having invested herself in their relationship? She wants him to ask her to marry him, of course. Over the course of the film, he eventually gives her what she wants: He marries her. She does her best to be the best wife she can be in the brief amount of time they have together. Does he reciprocate much throughout the film? Not really…When Chucky tells Tiffany to do the dishes; instead of offering to do them himself Tiffany's temper is triggered in a huge way, resulting in her throwing dishes at him. Besides marrying Tiffany in Bride of Chucky, one could argue that Chucky does something for Tiffany by taking care of the details of how they were going to attempt to achieve the goal of attaining human bodies to live semi-normal lives. In a way, Chucky served as a compass for Tiffany, who was a first time doll in Bride; unlike Chucky, who's had more experience as a plastic fiend throughout the ten years they were apart from one another. He knows this ain't his first rodeo, and has built the confidence to navigate and adapt to the art of doll life.
Not much of a house husband; that Chucky…is he?
On the other hand; in Seed of Chucky, while Tiffany smooths out the details of how they're going to become human and live their lives, one can argue that Chucky steps up to the plate and does something for Tiffany, and that's help raise their gender confused son/daughter, Glen(da).
Chucky and Tiffany give and take in their own way. Even after they fell out of marriage in Seed of Chucky, Tiffany still helps Chucky out of her love for him throughout Curse of Chucky. Whether Chucky gives her credit or not…well…that remains to be further explored as the series continues.
Tiffany is more than capable of standing on her own; stepping up and acting as care taker with raising her and Chucky's twin offspring, Glen and Glenda and helping Chucky achieve his horrible acts in various ways behind the scenes and in front.
It's their love and connection for one another (in their own twisted way) that potentially keeps them in each others orbits.
One of Tiffany's best qualities is her ability to take initiative.
She's learned not to wait around for others to tell her what to do, but to get things done on her own terms. What form this quality of hers takes in future films will be interesting to see as each film unravels.

Waste management has turned out to be an ongoing challenge for both new and existing companies. Besides accumulating the cost of disposing waste, companies are also running a risk of bad publicity and negative environmental impact. The issue of handling waste materials becomes complicated, especially for companies located within a city that takes the matter seriously.
This article will look at the best and the most straightforward ways a company can handle and reduce waste. It will also highlight the benefits of reducing waste materials, which you will learn if you read on.
How to Minimize Waste in the Workplace
Let's face it; it's hard to ignore that a good percentage of waste materials in urban centers come from businesses and companies. No matter how careful the company is, there will always be waste materials at the end of the day. However, the difference in the output is determined by the size of the company and its line of business. Digital companies produce less waste compared to manufacturing companies. Nonetheless, they each have a responsibility to keep the waste output to a minimum.
Although not all waste management guidelines can work with every company, there are basic but very effective waste management ideas that any company can adapt. They include:
Companies around the country are making an effort to eliminate the use of paper in their workplace. While some, like Google, have succeeded, many are still struggling to integrate paperless ideas into their everyday business.
Paper contributes to nearly a third of everyday trash, and by eliminating its use, companies will manage to bring down a significant amount of waste they produce daily. The best ways to achieve this would include:
Introducing whiteboards around the company offices
Encouraging people to communicate electronically
Upgrading to an electronic filing system
Introducing paperless transactions, including invoices and receipts
Not only will going paperless help the company save some money, but it will also promote neatness, proper data security that you can backup, and real-time information sharing.
Manage the Food Waste
We all like to indulge in treats and tasty meals occasionally. However, have you ever accidentally knocked down a trash can in your office and saw all the food waste in there? Although the amount of food waste in an office is half that in our homes, it's still a lot of waste to deal with every day. Most of the food waste comes from the kitchen, with people who carry their food and snacks contributing as well.
Installing a fridge and coolers in the office kitchen could help reduce the amount of food waste in the workplace. Another option is to encourage employees to reduce their waste contribution and only serve food they can finish. Also, it would help a lot to encourage the kitchen department to give out edible leftover food instead of throwing it away when no one in the office wants it. Such food can be packed and given to shelters, for instance.
Introduce Reusables in the Cafeteria
Apart from food waste, cafeterias and break rooms are a source of non-reusable waste such as plastic coffee cups and water bottles. They are also places with a lot of trash in a business workplace, and a lack of proper waste control would lead to more waste accumulating and turning the place into a mess.
One way of eliminating this waste is by introducing reusables such as coffee mugs and glasses that can be washed and reused by different people. If it's impossible to have an entire supply of such items, try encouraging workers to carry similar items from home for their daily use.
By doing this, businesses have managed to cut down their waste products by half and turned the cafeterias and break rooms into clean areas where people can hang out.
Have a Central Area for Storing Office Supplies
Office supplies such as paper clips, scissors, pens, and pins are crucial for everyday use. However, they tend to spread around the office since everyone is using them, with a majority of them ending up in a trash can. While it's not normal to come across a trash can filled with paper clips and scissors, it's widespread for these items to be used in bulk, especially at a large company.
The best way to ensure such supplies are not misused or end up in a trash can more often is to have a central area where they can all be stored. There should also be a notice to workers that, whenever someone is done using any office item, they should return them to this common area, where someone else might use them.
The solution helps to reduce the total cost while also helping to control the amount of waste in a workplace.
Get Rid of Bottled Water
Plastic bottles are an environmental concern, given the impact they have on it. There have been several campaigns to have them reduced, and this includes in the workplace. Instead of giving your workers bottled water, try and supply them with drinking glasses that can be reused. Try installing filters in the kitchen and break rooms since there is no difference between tap water and bottled water.
Getting rid of plastic waste also includes yogurt and ice cream cups that are often found in cafeterias. Besides clustering the dust bins, plastic waste is also costly to recycle, and the world would be a better place without them.
Challenge the Departments to Reduce Waste
Nothing works better than having a friendly competition between co workers, and this could be extended to waste management. You can set up a simple but very effective friendly challenge between departments, where a department that produces the least amount of waste gets rewarded. The prize doesn't have to be sophisticated, but it could be something as simple as recognition or an afternoon treat.
Nothing motivates workers more than a few hours enjoying their spoils after a week of keeping their workplace clean. You can also set up a bonus point system, where the department that accumulates a lot of bonus points can redeem them for whatever reward they need.
When in place, a challenge promotes a sense of responsibility where every worker in their department contributes toward the course, which helps to decrease the amount of waste produced. It also helps if workers are educated on the importance of proper waste management and how negligence contributes to environmental effects and the company's public image.
Take Account of E-Waste Every Day
They might not be in large quantities, but e-waste products in the workplace are still a significant concern since there are no proper guidelines to deal with them. It's common for computer components such as keyboards, mice, and charging cables to break down more often. Such components might seem harmless since we interact with them every day, but they're still hazardous to our environment when they're in large quantities.
Having a system in place to take account of the number of e-waste products coming from the workplace every day could be a key to reducing this type of waste. Such a system should check the extent of damage on these products and whether there is a way to salvage anything. Doing so will help the company save money it would use on waste disposal and purchasing new equipment, since the cost of repair is lower than purchasing new electronic components.
Audit the Waste Management System in Place
Have you been trying to control waste management in your workplace, but nothing seems to work? It's probably because your existing waste management system is not effective enough to handle the problem. Place different composting containers that have clear labels to show what goes where. Also, encourage your workers to exercise caution when throwing away waste and other unusable items.
Another solution would be to double the number of trash containers in your facility. If it helps, have these containers set at every corridor junction where they're visible to everyone. Not only will this promote cleanliness within the workplace, but it also puts off careless workers who throw away reusable junk.
Keep note of how full the containers get before pick-up and how often this happens within a week. Challenge the workers to only dump what cannot be recycled, but keep what can be reused.
What are the Benefits of Reducing Waste in a Company?
While the world is struggling to contain waste products and the effects they bring, it's our responsibility to make sure we play our role in the fight. Even the slightest efforts could go a long way to turn around the damage we have already done.
The benefits of waste reduction by companies include:
The core purpose of a business is to generate revenue that can be reinvested somewhere else. By reducing waste production, a company can then cut down trash hauling costs which ends up saving it money.
Recycling also helps to bring down the cost of production compared to manufacturing products that can only be used once. Although it might not seem as much initially, such an exercise can save hundreds of thousands of dollars that can be reinvested in other income-generating projects.
A manufacturing company gains the most from recycled raw materials as they tend to be cheaper compared to extracting the same materials from natural spaces. As a result, a proper waste management system can have economic benefits to a company in the long run.
Our consumption rate has proven to be unsustainable, which has created a demand for more resources to curb our needs. Extracting and processing such resources require an abundant supply of energy, and the only source of such energy is fossil fuels. Although we may end up getting the resources we need to survive, fossil fuels result in greenhouse gas emissions, which end up eating into our ozone layer and affecting the climate.
However, the energy required to recycle waste products and make them usable once again is a third of that required to extract and process new resources. As a result, we get lesser greenhouse gas emissions, which in return helps to keep our climate intact.
Energy is one finite resource that we have, and the demand for it is growing every day. As the human population and urban centers grow, the energy demand to sustain them is also growing. Much of this energy is used to deal with waste products such as incinerators and ferrying them to dump sites.
By reducing the number of waste products, all this wasted energy could be redirected to other profitable use or making peoples' lives better. It also opens doors to alternative energy sources such as:
Solar and wind energy
Electric energy used in vehicles as an alternative to petroleum products
Build a Better Public Image
The best way for a company to attract more clients and sell its products is by building a solid public image. By having robust waste management systems in place, a company prides itself as a pioneer in environment conservation, making more people trust its products.
Living in a world where people are becoming aware of our effect on the climate, it helps to be among the people who are taking the necessary steps to correct the damage we have already caused.
Waste management is no longer a luxury for the few, but a necessity for the collective. The world is growing faster, and so are the waste products. Going paperless, eliminating plastic products, and introducing reusables in a workplace are companies' first steps to reduce waste. Reducing food waste and auditing a waste management system in place are other steps that have proven to cut down waste products. Companies are also using centralized areas to keep office supplies and challenging departments to adhere to minimal waste production. Apart from saving money, proper waste management also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, saves energy, and builds an excellent public image for them.

Q: Host mail server and website on different machines under one domain Is there a way to host mail server for certain domain on different machine.
For example:
If I own website.com and it is hosted on PC1 what are the requirements to make mail.website.com and host it on PC2.
I am planning to use Linux Ubuntu-postfix-squirrel mail...
A: This is fairly normal.
In your DNS config you'll specify one or more MX record types - these are the hosts responsible for handling mail for your domain. Note that they do not need to be hosts in your domain - ie, you can pay MS or Google for mail service, and you'd set your MX records to point to the MS or Google server.
Then for the website portion, normal A or CNAME records are used to point to a host.

Dr Luca Mirimin
Lecturer in Aquatic Ecology
[email protected]
Dr Luca Mirimin, Lecturer in Aquatic Ecology at GMIT and Researcher in Conservation Genetics and Applied Molecular Ecology at MFRC.
I hold an honours degree in Natural Sciences from University of Ferrara, Italy (2002) and a PhD in Zoology from University College Cork, Ireland (2007). Prior to my current academic position, I had been a researcher in several projects in UK, South Africa and Ireland. My research interests are in the development and application of molecular tools to aid aquatic ecosystems health and sustainable seafood production.

Q: Usage for global.jelly and config.jelly in Jenkins plugin I am working on a Jenkins plugin using Maven 3 see two default .jelly files: global.jelly and config.jelly. What is the difference between the two, and can you give me examples of what goes in each file?
This is a result of a project created by:
mvn hpi:create
Thanks in advance for any help!
A: *
*global.jelly is for global configuration (i.e per Jenkins instance - the values you can configure at http://<your_jenkins_server>/configure )
examples can be - SMTP server address if this is a mailer plugin, or some tool location if your plugin calls that tool
*config.jelly is for the job configuration - defining plugin parameters for a specific job.
examples: mail recipients for that job reports, specific execution parameters, output file locations, etc.

Occupied Palestinian Territories: Oral Intervention at 46th Session UN HRC
Hana Efendić February 26, 2021 March 25, 2021 Human Rights Council, MEPP, Palestine, Peace, United Nations
What follows is an oral intervention on the Occupied Palestinian Territories delivered by Hana Efendić, NCF's Research Officer to the 46th session of the UN Human Rights Council for the General Debate under Item 7: Human rights situation in Palestine and other occupied Arab territories.
Madame President.
The first general elections of 15 years will be held in the Palestinian Authority this year. The Next Century Foundation hopes that the governments of the State of Israel, the Egyptian Arab Republic, and the United States of America, will support this opportunity for the Palestinian people to express their democratic right. When democracy is being encouraged all over the world, so should be the same in Palestine. All citizens wishing to cast a vote, whether in East Jerusalem, the West Bank, or Gaza, should be able to do so.
Furthermore, we are greatly encouraged by Israel's approval of the meeting between Hussein al-Sheikh, on behalf of the Palestinian Authority and the Palestinian politician Marwan Bargouti, who is serving a life term sentence in Hadarim prison. We respectfully urge the Government of Israel to release Marwan Barghouti from prison. Having earned much respect for his efforts to promote peace, he could be a victorious candidate in Palestine's presidential elections. If successful, he would further the political unity between Palestinians which is crucial for the advancement of peace between Israel and Palestine. As an opponent of rocket attacks between Gaza and Israel, he also has the potential to settle Israel's security concerns and thus initiate steps that might lead to an end to the Gaza closures.
Allowing Marwan Barghouti to stand in this year's Palestinian elections could further long-held aspirations of peace and security in the Middle East. It is now the responsibility of the international community to foster this vision. Thank you.
For further information on our written statement submitted to the 46th session of the UN Human Rights Council on Palestine, please click here.

Is it true there are now three registries issuing certificates for Karakul sheep in the US? Unfortunately yes.
The Alliance came together to find the Karakul flocks since the subsequent AKSR Registrar closed the flock book, soon after the Registry was purchased from Julia DeVlieg in 2000. In 2005 three passionate Karakul breeders, Deborah Hunter, Washington, Joe Schukar, Nebraska, and Julia DeVlieg, Washington, started brainstorming about a solution for the 'left out flocks'. After one start in 2007 (domain names but no work completed) we launched the Karakul Shepherds Alliance blog/website in 2014, along with Letty Klein, Michigan. We knew we would need to offer registry services. Janie Cheers wanted to be a Registrar, so she joined our project. Soon after we got our whole Registry picture finalized in summer 2015, Ms. Cheers disconnected from us, not understanding what we were trying to accomplish. The registry documents we had drafted were re-purposed by her for the third registry, Karakul Sheep Association.
After forms were re-designed and uploaded in August 2016 Deborah Hunter has been issuing registration certificates for the Karakul Shepherds Alliance. The state of Washington has licensed Karakul Shepherds Alliance as a sole proprietorship business. The Alliance will always have a team of specialized Advisors to assist with registration evaluations, drafting and editing of printed materials, research, and advice on all things related to Karakul sheep.
Three registries cannot be good for US Karakul sheep. Are there any plans to bring everyone together? Possibly. We are hopeful. We will continue to advance the coming together of US Karakul registries under one umbrella, while working with the Livestock Conservancy for guidance.
What makes The Alliance different from the other two Karakul registries? We are interested in ALL Karakul flocks in North America. We have an Open flock book because we have a special concern for landrace flocks, those which have been isolated for several years without additional bloodlines. We have the experience, knowledge, and sensitivities to evaluate Karakul sheep for entry into our Registry. At the same time we would like to get in touch with shepherds of Karakul flocks who have not registered their sheep for a number of years—to reconnect, get a Karakul count, exchange information, and offer a Registry service, should they have a need or desire for certificates.
Why is The Alliance interested in these isolated flocks? Isolated flocks are especially interesting because of the possibilities of finding 'new blood', but also because it brings these breeders into the fold. That's how it was with the AKSR before 2000. When Julia DeVlieg started the AKSR in 1985 it seemed many breeders had an isolated flock and very few of them knew more than two other breeders who had Karakuls. Most of these isolated landrace flocks were beautiful Karakul sheep, line-bred for generations.
Why is The Alliance conducting an annual Karakul census? We are working with the Livestock Conservancy to get a more accurate Karakul population count. We do not believe annual lamb registrations are an accurate summary of Karakul sheep numbers in this country. Many of us know at least one breeder, usually more, who has not registered lamb crops in several years, for a variety of reasons. We would like to count these flocks, small and large, registered and unregistered. This would give us a closer approximation of the total American Karakul sheep population.
The Livestock Conservancy recommends an annual history including flock additions in order to register sheep from landrace flocks.
Tell me more about The Alliance's registrations. Let's face it; the registration process can be arduous for Karakuls. Each individual sheep can be so unique with numerous characteristics to identify—lamb pelt, ear length, tail size, color, horns, etc. We have tried to simplify the process while still cataloging the characteristics that make an individual Karakul distinctive. We no longer ask for lamb pelt identifiers unless the breeder would like to have them recorded in the text portion of the certificate.
Why do you ask about other sheep breeds and crossbreeding on the Farm & Flock form and the Karakul Census? Because The Alliance has an Open Registry and we are evaluating non-registered Karakuls for entry into our flock book, we need to do the best job we can to make sure they are as pure-blooded as possible. Karakuls are a very distinctive sheep breed and many of their characteristics dominate genetically. However, when outcrossed with another breed the Central Asian fat-tail and lamb pelt disappear for a generation or two. This is part of the evaluation process that Alliance Advisors will undertake when evaluating new sheep from unregistered or landrace flocks for possible entry into The Alliance flock book. We took the advice from the Livestock Conservancy – We would like to know if there is another breed of sheep on the farm.
Is there a membership fee to join The Alliance? No. We do not see the need for a fee to join us. In lieu of a membership fee we are asking for a little information on your flock and farm. If you would like to be part of the Karakul Shepherds Alliance, we ask that you provide this information annually via the Farm & Flock Form or online at the Karakul Census. At the bottom a question asks if you would like your farm contact information listed on the Alliance Breeders page. Answering Yes will give your farm or ranch free advertising on our Website. You do not need to register individual sheep to have your flock listed. We will appreciate any donations, which will be put towards website costs and advertising in sheep and agriculture publications.
Please spread the word, telling every Karakul breeder you know about The Alliance and ask them to join us at the Karakul Census for the count of American Karakul sheep. Thank you.
We are interested in your comments, suggestions, ideas, requests that you might have regarding this project. Please connect with us via a Blog post or email in private: [email protected] Thank you. | {

Kane relishing new responsibilities under Tottenham boss Mourinho
by Ansser Sadiq 2020-11-25 16:25:27.000000
Tottenham and England star Harry Kane is thriving under the responsibility given to him by manager Jose Mourinho.
Kane has been in scintillating form this season, both as a goalscorer and provider of goals to his teammates.
His new found creativity is something Mourinho has honed, and Kane is adamant he is a better player thanks to his Portuguese manager.
"It's one of those where when things are going well, people obviously like to praise you, and maybe that has been heightened this season because we've been a bit more clinical and there has been a bit more emphasis on me dropping deeper, but it's just part of my game," Kane told the Tottenham website.
"I've always wanted to defend, always wanted to drop deep and get on the ball. At times, as a number nine, you can get a little lost in games, you can get isolated up front, so I guess it's my game evolving a little as well, learning how to get involved when you are up against teams that drop deep, things like that.
"I remember when I was in the youth team and playing in central defence, defensive midfield, number eight, number 10, striker, left wing. It's good, especially when you are younger, to learn different positions and understand those roles, because in a game you are going to find yourself in situations where you might be at left-back, left midfield, and you have that knowledge.
"The biggest thing for me is that I've always had a football brain, I understand the game really well and that's what people are starting to see. I'm just at that age of my career where I'm reaching my peak and I feel good."

Thinking of Swamiji's lectures, learning of the raps he could give ministers and matrons alike, considering the majesty with which he strode through America undaunted by hardship and malicious opposition, reading his letters of fiery leadership to India, and again, remembering the silent and fathomless depths of contemplation into which he often fell, one sometimes forgets how youpg he was, how ready to take duckings in the sea and to JLaugh heartily with those whom he loved. This was, of course, pot only because he was barely in his thirties, but also because, living as he did on the very edge of the Infinite, where the great festival of the Divine Mother is continuously taking place* Swamiji was profoundly, eternally young.
In the last chapter we dwelt upon the trials Swamiji underwent during the summer of 1894, and the reader may have been left with an impression that this was a time of despondency for him. But such was not the case. Despite the fact that the outward circumstances of his life had been dark indeed and were to remain unsettled until the end of August, inwardly he was filled with spiritual joy, and from this inward and most important point of view, this summer can be looked upon aa immensely fruitful. If there is a contradiction here, it is of the kind that has characterized the lives of all great prophets, who necessarily live on two levels – the human and the divine.
Nor is it altogether strange that Swamiji's spirits rose during the summer. Ever since his arrival in America in July of 1893 he had known little but cities and towns, trains and hotels. He had been under the constant strain of lecturing, making engagements, rushing here and there in accordance with a time schedule and, on the whole, living a life almost diametrically opposite to that of his years of wandering through the lofty Himalayas and vast plains of India. For a year he had kept his mind as much as possible in the relative world, restraining it from its natural state of spiritual absorption, lest, as was the case when he first arrived in America, he should become entirely oblivious of his surroundings, missing his engagements and perhaps even becoming lost in the maze of a foreign city. In this connection Sister Nivedita gives a picture of Swamiji during his first days in America. "There are still some amongst those who entertained him in Chicago in 1893 she writes in "The Master As I Saw Him," "who tell of the difficulty with which, on his first arrival in the West, he broke through the habit of falling constantly into absorption. He would enter a tram, and have to pay the fare for the whole length of the line, more than once in a single journey, perhaps, being too deeply engrossed in thought to know when he had reached his destination." As if it were not enough for Swamiji to become, as it were, a "man of action,", attending to all the details that encumber the life of a lecturer and celebrity, he was forced to meet the nagging persecution of his enemies which, like the dregs of world thought, was inflicted upon him at every turn. Although that persecution had continued during the summer of 1894, he was at least afforded a respite from lecturing, and it is little wonder, therefore, that his mind at once soared upward like a spring suddenly released.
beautiful place somewhere in N.Y. State" he wrote, "mountains, lake, river, forest altogether – what more? I am going to make a Himalayas there and start a monastery as sure as I am living – I am not going to leave this country without throwing one more apple of discord into this already roaring, fighting, kicking, mad whirlpool of American religion." Although this was written half in jest, it nonetheless shows that Swamiji was thinking in terms of an American ashrama. Another desire he had at this time was to write a book, a fact which indicates that new ideas were arising within his mind and seeking outward expression.
But Swamiji's work of lecturing about India and of trying to earn money for her had been the two ostensive objects of his life in America. If he was not to continue along these lines, then what pattern was his work to take? Surely, a change was taking place in his mind, and, on the whole, one cannot view this summer of 1894 as merely a period of relaxation for him, a sort of hiatus between seasons; it was rather a period of transition in which his mind, freed from daily pressure, tended toward its natural state of creative quiet, a state from which would eventually arise new modes of thought and activity. As though by some cosmic intention, the outward circumstances of his life at this time seem to have been ready-made for him. It was toward the end of July, when he was in a mood of spiritual creativity and when, consciously or unconsciously, he was seeking a new form of approach to the American people, that he went to Greenacre.
The community of Greenacre, newly founded by Miss Sarah J. Farmer, was, in a sense, one of the outcomes of the Parliament of Religions. It was a summer colony or retreat on the bank of the Piscataqua River, near Eliot, in Maine, the purpose of which was to put into practice the ideal of the harmony of all religions. The Greenacre Religious Conferences went considerably further than the Parliament of Religions in this respect, for they represented the overthrow of orthodox views and brought together the seething new religious thought of the age. Inevitably there were in the assemblage a number of cranks and followers of freakish, lly-by-night sects, and, at least during the first summer of the Conferences, a kind of wild exaltation pervaded the group. But for all that, the men and women of Greenacre had kicked over the traces of a narrow, stereotyped religion and were directing all their energies toward evolving a new pattern of faith. They were earnest, vital and unafraid. Among them, moreover, were thinkers, scholars and people who, in one way or another, were awake to the neecTof a spiritual renascence and who were earnestly struggling to bring it into being. Nowhere else could Swamiji have found in one place a group more receptive to his ideas and more ready to benefit from his influence. These circumstances, together with the fact that Greenacre offered to Swamiji the wide, unpaved vistas of open country and days in which his mind was free to plunge into profound contemplation or to lift in ecstasy, make it seem that, like other events in his life, the founding of the Greenacre Religious Conferences in 1894 was part of the same divine plan that had brought him to America.
There is a mass of thought which is at the present time struggling to get expression. It teaches us that higher direction and not destruction is the law. It teaches us that it is not a world of bad and good, but good and better – and still better. It stops short of nothing but acceptance. It teaches that no situation is hopeless, and as such accepts every form of mental, moral or spiritual thought where it already stands, and without a word of condemnation tells it that so far it has done good, now it is time to do better. … It above all teaches that the kingdom of heaven is already in existence if we will have it, that perfection is already in man if he will see it.
The Greenacre meetings last summer were so wonderful, simply because you opened yourself fully to that thought which has found in you so competent a medium of expression, and because you took your stand on the highest teaching of this thought that the kingdom of heaven already exists.
You have been consecrated and chosen by the Lord as a channel for converting this thought into life, and every one that helps you in this wonderful work is serving the Lord.
Our Gita teaches that he who serves the servants of the Lord is His highest worshipper. You are a servant of the Lord, and as a disciple of Krishna I will always consider it a privilege and worship to render you any service in the carrying out of your inspired mission wherever I be.
at a little distance can scarcely sec that there are people beneath the tree so lowly do the branches swing. A more delicious spot than one of these trees affords to listen I cannot conceive. The scene is far retired from all that can disturb. It is so far from the highway that there is no rumble of wheels. The only sound is the chirp of the birds and the voice of the speaker coming in mellowed tones from under the great tree.
The listeners loll about on the ground as suits them best. A few of the elderly people have chairs. The middle-aged and young are entirely unconventional. Some lie on their backs listening and looking up into the blue arch of the heavens. Others lie resting on one elbow and meditatively pluck in pieces the leaves of the shrubs that surround, as they listen.
Under one of the tall Lysekloster pines. Swami ji held classes every morning, and thus it became known for years to come as "The Swami's Pine." There Swami Saradananda spoke and, later, Swami Abhedananda. Of Swamiji's classes we know unfortunately little at the present time, but from that little it is clear that in his exalted mood, surrounded by receptive and eager seekers of truth, he spoke more of philosophy than of the manners and customs of India. One gathers this from excerpts of the Greenacre Voice, a magazine published by the colony.
"I am neither body nor changes of the body; nor am I senses nor object of the senses. I am Existence Absolute. Bliss Absolute. Knowledge Absolute. I am It. I am It.
"I am neither death nor fear of death ; nor was I ever born, nor had I parents. I am Existence Absolute. Knowledge Absolute. Bliss Absolute. I am it. I am It.
"I am not misery nor have I misery. I am not enemy nor have I enemies. I am Existence Absolute.
Bliss Absolute. Knowledge Absolute. I am It. I am It.
"I am without form, without limit, beyond space, beyond time ; I am in everything, I am the basis of the universe – everywhere am I. I am Existence Absolute.
As far as can be learned at the present, and to judge from the little we know of Swamiji's Greenacre classes, it was there that he taught for the first time in America the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, as such, to a group of eager listeners. "I teach them all Shivoham, Shivoham," he wrote to Mary Hale, "and they all repeat it – innocent and pure as they are and brave beyond all bounds and so I am happy and 'glorified." Although it cannot be supposed that at Greenacre Swamiji formulated his later method of teaching in the West, this period can be thought of as a foreshadowing of what was to come – the beginnings of a new method of work.
Yet, although Swamiji was living in that state in which all things were fraught with glory, he was not by any means deceived by what was going on around him. While his vision penetrated to the spiritual reality behind people and events he never overlooked anything; indeed, he perceived the surface reality with a clearness and accuracy not given to others. In the same letter in which he told of his great joy at witnessing the valor of the Greenacre campers, he wrote: "One thing – they are a dry sort of people here – and as to that very few in the whole world are there that are not. They do not understand 'Madhava,' the Sweet One. They are either intellectual or go after faith cure, table turning, witchcraft, etc., etc!. Nowhere have I heard so much about 'love, life and liberty' as in this country, but nowhere is it less understood. Here God is either a terror or a healing power, vibration, and so forth. Lord bless their souls! And these parrots talk day and night of love and love and love!
But despite the Greenacre mystics by whom Swamiji was surrounded he was living in a state of high spiritual ecstasy. "Instead of materializing the spirit, i.c. dragging the spiritual to the material plane as these fellers do," he wrote to the Hale sisters, "convert the matter into spirit – catch a glimpse at least every day of that world of infinite beauty and peace and purity, the spiritual, and try to live in it day and night – Seek not – touch not with youftoes anything which is uncanny – Let your souls ascend day and night like an unbroken string unto the feet of the beloved, whose throne is in your own heart, and let the rest take care of themselves – i.e. the body and everything else. . . .
We have found two pictures of Swamiji taken at Greenacre under his pine. One of these, which was among Isabelle McKindley's treasures, shows him standing with folded arms, his eyes looking as eyes look when the whole world is seen as permeated by Divinity. The other, in which he is sitting on the ground with his class about him, may well be the photograph he spoke of in his letter to the Hale sisters: "Herewith I send a photograph Cora Stockham took of the group under the tree. It is only a proof and will fade away under exposure, but I cannot get anything better at present." Very likely a more durable print was made; for both pictures reproduced in this book have been taken from finished photographs.
a "singular thing" that for many years afterwards hundreds were attracted to the "little town up in Maine." During the two weeks of Swamiji's visit to Greenacre, he not only enlightened scores of earnest seekers of truth but left behind him an atmosphere of intense spirituality. And during those same weeks he himself perhaps began to see in a new light his mission to America.
of Religions" ; "it takes all of them together to represent the . . . Religion of the Ages, Natural Religion." This was, of course, heresy. But Higginson, long famous for his liberalism, influenced thousands of thinking Americans newly emerged from the orthodox cocoon. It is not to be wondered at that he greatly admired Swamiji and subsequently invited him to speak at a meeting of the Free Religious Association, of which lie was president and which had been founded by Emerson and others for the purpose of widening contemporary religious thought into an all-embracing sympathy.
Regrettably, Swamiji's lecture of August 13 before the Free Religious Association at Plymouth, Massachusetts, is not at present available, but the very fact that he had been invited to lecture before that body is a sound indication that the circles of liberal religious thought allied themselves with him.
Leaving Plymouth, Swamiji again visited his New York friends, Dr. and Mrs. Guernsey, who were spending the summer at the small town of Fishkill Landing, on the bank of the Hudson River. Here he stayed only a few days and then, on the invitation of Mrs. John Bagley, traveled to her summer home in Annisquam, Massachusetts.
It was almost a year to the day since Swamiji had first visited Annisquam as a guest of Professor John Henry Wright and had there given his first lecture in an American church. He had then been unknown ; he had had no credentials and little money, indeed nothing but a few newly made friends and some ochre robes. He had written at that time, "I am trying my best to find out any plank I can float upon . . Now, a year later, he was famous, recognized by thousands as a great exponent of Hinduism and loved and revered as a prophet by innumerable loyal and influential friends. In the fitness of things, it was while Swamiji was in Annisquam that news of the Madras Address, a document that put the seal of official approval upon his year of labor in the West, was published in the American newspapers.
wrote of him, "a strong, noble human being who walks with God … as simple and trustful as a child.' He was still and always the very embodiment of purity, whom the world could not harm either by vicious criticism or by fervid admiration – and of both he had had a lion's share.
Mechanic Hall was well filled on Tuesday evening to hear the lecture given by our visiting friend, the Hindoo monk. He was introduced to the audience by Prof. Wright, who also made some preliminary remarks befitting the occasion. The Lecturer alluded to the visit he made to this village last year, and stated that the address he gave here at that time in the church was the first public discourse that he ever gave in English or in his native language; and kindly thanked his friends present who induced him to attempt the same.
The religion of India was explained at some length by the speaker from a metaphysical standpoint, showing the working of his mind and the thought following, yet his ideas were broad and liberal, when practically applied.
From here I think I will go Backto New York. Or I may go to Boston to Mrs. Ole Bull. Perhaps you have heard of Mr. Ole Bull the great violinist of this country. She is his widow. She is a very spiritual lady. She lives in Cambridge and has a fine big parlour made of woodwork brought all the way from India. She wants me to come over to her any time and use her parlour to lecture. Boston of course is the great field for everything but the Boston people as quickly take hold of anything as give it up. While the New Yorkers are slow but when they get hold of anything they do it with a mortal grip.
I believe you are enjoying your summer retreat. Kindly convey my best regards and love to Miss Howe and Mr. Frank Howe.
Perhaps I did not tell you in my last how I slept and lived and preached under the trees and for a few days at least found myself once more in the atmosphere of heaven.
The summer was ovejr. Schools and colleges were opening and people were returning from mountain and seaside resorts to the cities. Swamiji's second year of lecturing in America began in Boston, where he spent nearly the entire month of September. The little that is known of this Boston visit must at present be pieced together from his published letters, for the Boston papers were curiously silent regarding his lectures. We can only surmise that for the most part they were delivered before private or semiprivate gatherings.
Your letter with the India mail just to hand. A quantity of Newspaper clippings were sent over to me from India. I send them Backfor your perusal and safekeeping.
I am busy writing letters to India last few days. I will remain a few days more in Boston.
Melrose is a town a few miles north of Boston, where Swamiji evidently lectured at least twice – the second time on Sunday, September 30. This lecture was probably his last in the vicinity of Boston in the fall of 1894, for on October 2 he went to Mrs. Ole Bull's home in Cambridge, where his desire for a quiet place to write was at last fulfilled.
That Swamiji addressed Mrs. Bull as "Mother" was by no means a matter of Hindu rhetoric. He undoubtedly had at once felt a profound trust in her judgment and in her large heart – an intuitive trust which was not misplaced and which led him to write later, "Not only from the help you have given me but from jny instinct (or as I call it, inspiration of my Master) I regard you as my mother, and will always abide by any advice you may have for me…It may be noted again that in the large cities of America – Chicago, Boston and New York – Swamiji had special friends who were not only influential but who loved him as a son or brother and revered him as a prophet. It is perhaps safe to say that such people were there by divine providence, for in the life of one so very close to God as Swamiji, there seems to be an almost cosmic design, both broad and detailed. Be that as it may, Mrs. Ole Bull played an important part in Swamiji's life and from the very first was extremely helpful to his work.
When Swamiji first met Mrs. Bull she was in her early forties and had been a widow for fourteen years. Aside from the fact that she was by nature warm-hearted, courageous, independent and, as Swamiji said, "very spiritual," her wide travels with her famous violinist husband, her experience with managers, audiences, and all that goes with public life, to say nothing of her close association with an artist, had well equipped her to help Swamiji, to give him not only good advice regarding his work in America but personal sympathy and understanding.
seventeen she attended with her mother one of Ole Bull's concerts and then and there made up her mind that she would one day become his wife. She was of the same mind when, three years later, she met him socially.
As for Ole Bull his meeting with Sara was evidently a case of love at first sight. "But," says his biographer, "this romantic attachment between age and youth might well have come to nothing had it not been for a very remarkable woman, Sara's mother." Brushing aside the protests of her husband, Mrs. Thorp encouraged the romance until, in September of 1870, it culminated in marriage. It was a strange alliance; not only was there a forty years difference between husband and wife, but a wide difference in background and temperament. Sara Bull belonged to a highly conventional Midwestern family ; Ole Bull to the unconventional, free society of artists. Yet the couple were in love, and all might have gone well had not Mrs. Thorp, Mr. Thorp, Joseph Thorp, their son, a Mrs. Abbie Shapleigh (Mrs. Thorp's companion) and her two children kept almost constant tab on the couple both in America and Europe. For several years this entourage lived with them, traveled with them, argued with them and incessantly gave them advice. Explosion continuously threatened until finally, after numerous and unsuccessful attempts to transform the impulsive and extravagant Ole Bull into a docile and respectable son-in-law, Mrs. Thorp came to the conclusion that he was not, after all, a suitable husband for her daughter. She forthwith engineered a separation and bundled Sara and her small daughter, Sara Olca, who had been born in 1871, home to Madison.
But as Sara Bull grew older she became a match for her mother. After two years of pining at home, she one day rebelled against parental authority, left Madison and rejoined her husband in Norway. After this, the Bulls lived a private and quiet life – if the life of a concert violinist may be said to be private and quiet. It was, at least, a life in which the Thorp family no longer interfered, but with which they finally came to terms. Henceforth peace reigned between Sara's family and Ole Bull. Mrs. Bull took charge of her impractical husband's affairs, virtually managed his concert tours, borrowed money from her father when necessary, and became, all in all, a mature and efficient wife to this aging, somewhat erratic man, whom she adored, indeed, whom she worshiped.
But Mrs. Bull could provide a sanctuary in her Cambridge home as well as a lively salon, and it was here that in October of 1894 she offered Swamiji a place where he could write undisturbed. It is, of course, not unlikely that she persuaded him to give one or two informal talks in her large living room, and very possibly it was during this stay with Mrs. Bull that Swamiji became so intimately acquainted with Dr. William James. (It was perhaps at this time that he demonstrated, as we have been told, the mystery of divine communion for the noted philosopher by plunging, in his presence, into samadhi.) But although Mrs. Bull may have introduced others of her friends to Swamiji she no doubt for the most part gave him an opportunity to rest and to write down his thoughts, for perceptive and sensitive as she was, she must have seen that he was in need of a few days of peace.
Yet despite Swamiji's fatigue he continued, in the last part of 1894, to lecture wherever opportunity presented itself. It would appear, as has been pointed out before, that he was destined, before settling down in one place, to spread his influence throughout America, to scatter his blessing and the potent seeds of spirituality over wide areas, to meet thousands upon thousands of people and to stir not only their minds but the deep recesses of their souls – those depths which none but a prophet of his stature could reach and awaken. Therefore he did not remain long at Mrs. Bull's home in Cambridge.
Swami Vivekananda, a Brahmin high priest of India, arrived in Baltimore last night, and is the guest of Rev. Waller Vrooman. He came to America over a year ago, to attend the Congress of Religions, at the World's Fair, in Chicago, and his address before that body made him one of the most popular representatives in the congress. In personal appearance Swami Viveka-nanda is a picturesque character. He is about five and a half feet tall and heavily built, weighing probably 225 pounds. His skin is dark, but it is the shade peculiar to the Asiatic races. His face is round and plump, and his head is crowned with a wealth of jet black, wavy hair, that falls on his forehead and reaches down nearly to his eyebrows. His eyes are as black as his hair, and they are bright and sparkling, and when he smiles he displays a set of almosL perfect pearly teeth. His countenance is both handsome and striking, and in addition to this, he is as good-natured and jolly as it is possible for a man to be. The garb he wore last night was rather of a clerical cut; but he carries with him a costume such as he wears among his people, in India, and it is bright with scarlet and yellow. Though but thirty-three years of age, he is a profound scholar, and can fluently speak seven languages, and can read as many more. His English is beyond criticism.
India they have too much. I think the world would be better if some of India's surplus of religion could be sent over here, while it would be to India's profit if its people could have some of America's industrial advancement and civilization. I am a believer in all religions.
The word "Swami" means high priest or cardinal, and indicates Vivekananda's rank, while the latter is his family name. His family record reaches Back2,000 years. He is a member of the highest caste in India, and is counted an equal of the gods of his people, to whom he is an object of worship. His religion is Hinduism. His address at the Congress of Religions at Chicago last year was a profound production, and made a great impression on all who heard or read it.
Swami Vivekananda, during his stay in America, has been studying American institutions, particularly the American mode of government. He favors the establishment in this country of an international university, where all the religions of the world can be taught, for, he thinks there is no more need of American missionaries going to India than there is of Indian missionaries coming to America.
Swami Vivekananda is a charming conversationalist. He is familiar with the works of all the great writers in a dozen different tongues, and he quotes long selections from Spencer, Darwin, Mill or others of the great philosophers with a fluency that is surprising. Tomorrow evening he will appear on the stage of the Lyceum Theater in conjunction with the three Vrooman brothers, and will deliver an address. He will wear the costume of his native country.
Swamiji himself. Yet the career of each was already varied. The three – Walter, Hiram and Carl – belonged to a family of five energetic boys, all of whom were, among other things, ministers. Three were Congregationalists, one a Baptist and another, Hiram, first a Congregationalist and later a Sweden-borgian.
A story is told of the boyhood of Hiram and an older brother, perhaps Walter, which is illustrative of the Vrooman gift for enterprise. When a boy of twelve, Hiram and his fourteen-year-old brother, being in delicate health, were sent by their parents from their home in Kansas to one of the Western springs, so popular in those days as panaceas for all ills. It appears, however, that Hiram and his brother had small use for the springs, for shortly, having met a pedlar of a remarkable soap guaranteed to remove all stains, the boys, who evidently had money for their cure, bought out his stock, bought also the secret of manufacture, and forthwith proceeded to peddle soap. Starting on an itinerant enterprise, manufacturing the "Lightning Cleaner" and selling it along the road, they worked their way to Denver, Colorado. There, tired of peddling, and finding the Denver Exposition in progress, they invested their earnings in peanuts and opened a peanut stand. The peanut business flourished; Hiram and his brother cleared enough not only to pay all their expenses from the time they had left home, but to send two hundred dollars, a sizable amount in those days, to their parents, who by this time must surely have been at their wits' end. But the Vrooman boys were not through adventuring. They left Denver and embarked upon a lecture tour, the elder, who was now fifteen, lecturing on phrenology and Hiram, thirteen, acting as advance agent.
The story reads like the true American adventure story, and it could happen, of course, only in nineteenth-century America, when the country was a vast playground and where opportunity was waiting even for small boys. But adventure never seemed to come to an end for the Vrooman brothers. It is true that, after their lecture tour, the two boys returned to Kansas and soberly went to school. Hiram later took a special course at Harvard and then became a newspaper man, working as editor and reporter on-a New York daily. He soon aban* doned this course of action, however, in favor of theological studies and shortly entered the Congregational Church in Worcester, Massachusetts, as a minister. This was not to last long. He began to study the doctrine of the Swedenborgians and in 1893, when he visited Baltimore to officiate temporarily at the Associate Reformed Congregational Church, was invited to occupy the pulpit of the New Jerusalem, or Swedenborgian, Church. He accepted this post and was still holding it when the Vrooman brothers invited Swamiji to Baltimore as their guest. It should be mentioned, however, that in the first part of 1895, at the age of twenty-three, Hiram Vrooman resigned his pastorate at the New Jerusalem Church in order, as he said, to devote his entire time to literary work.
Unless Walter Vrooman was the elder of the pair of adventuresome boys who peddled soap, we know little of his career prior to Swamiji's visit to Baltimore. It is said, however, that in 1886, when he must have been still in his teens, he made his reputation as a political speaker in Henry George's campaign for mayor of New York. In 1894 he was on the staff of the Arena Magazine and was also pastor of the people's Congregation in Baltimore, which held weekly meetings at the Lyceum theater.
Carl Vrooman, the youngest of the brothers, was probably barely in his twenties at the time of Swamiji's visit and was still studying for the ministry. A bright, boy, he was president of the Intercollegiate Debating Union.
Vroomans contacted him. Possibly they had managed to meet him in Boston and there lured him to Baltimore with talk of plans for an international university – a project which was dear to Swamiji's heart. The Vrooman vitality and forthrightness may also have appealed to him, for despite their obsession with political reform, the brothers were, to say the least, spirited.
He is a Guest of the Vrooman Brothers and Is Interested in the Establishment of an International University of Religions – His Gorgeous Garb.
Seated in the main lobby of the Hotel Rennert yesterday afternoon was a personage clad in maroon dressing-gown, bound with a red sash. His face was dark, and mystically dignified, its lineaments expressive at once of both intellectuality and sentiment. His complexion was a deep olive, his eyes large, black and luminous, his hair black as midnight, his brow a study for the physiognomist. Taken all in all, his head was such a one as would delight the believer in phrenology.
The man was Swani Vivecananda, the Brahmin high priest, whose arrival has created such a furore in local religious circles. He was the observed of all observers. In his hand he held a copy of a leading magazine, which he was perusing with interest. Mr. Vivecananda conversed with a SUNDAY HERALD reporter, speaking English with ease and with an accent similar to that of an educated Italian. He displayed the greatest familiarity with the institutions of this country, religious, political and social.
Mr. Vivecananda came to Baltimore at the invitation of the Vrooman brothers, Hiram, Carl and Walter, and while in this city will be their guest. Rev. Hiram Vrooman was seen at his residence, 1122 North Calvert Street, yesterday, and talked freely in reference to the visit of the distinguished guest.
"Mr. Vivecananda," he said, "is one of the most intelligent men I have ever met. He came to this city at our invitation, and while here will confer with us in reference to the founding of the international university, which it is proposed to establish as an outcome of the World's Congress of Religions, which was such an interesting feature of the World's Fair. This university is one of Mr. Vivecananda's pet ideas, and has the full sympathy of myself and my brothers, and also a number of gentlemen of wealth and position, including several religions. Among its promoters are members of the Roman Catholic and Hebrew religions. The idea of the university is education in general religion.
"When founded its head will be one of the most distinguished educators in Lhis country, and its faculty will include professors selected from all religions. Mr. Vivecananda was sent to this country by the ecclesiastics of the Buddhist religion in India to study our religious and political systems. His expenses are paid by the ecclesiastical authorities of the Buddhist faith. He was its representative at the World's Congress. One of Mr. Vivecananda's ideas in the establishing of the university is that it may serve to educate a superior kind of missionary for work in India. While he is steadfast to his own religious belief, he wishes that the present system of sending ignorant men as missionaries to India may be discontinued and men sent there who can teach the Christian religion from an elevated standpoint. In this wish he is animated only by a desire for the good of general religion.
"He is one of the widest-informed men on religious topics I ever knew. It may be of interest to Roman Catholics to know that he was the first man to translate the works of Thomas a'Kempis, the great theologian of their faith, the favorite philosopher of Pope Leo, into the Sanscrit tongue. He carries a volume of the works of St. 'Thomas about with him constantly.
address at our meeting at the Lyceum, and on Sunday week will speak at length at our second meeting on the university plan.
The Lyceum Theater was crowded last night at the first of a series of meetings by the Vrooman Brothers. The subject discussed was "Dynamic Religion." The story of David and Goliath was discussed by Rev. Hiram Vrooman, Mr. Carl Vrooman and Rev. Walter Vrooman. In the course of his remarks, Rev. Hiram Vrooman said the most popular preachers today were generally those who manifest the greatest ingenuity in arranging the lights in the heavens without disturbing the darkness that is gathered over the church pews and over the city. "We are," said he, "in a crisis of the world's history.
Swami Vivekananda, the high priest from India, was the last speaker. He spoke briefly, and was listened to with marked attention. His English and his mode of delivery were excellent. There is a foreign accent to his syllables, but not enough to prevent him from being plainly understood. He was dressed in the costume of his native country, which was decidedly picturesque. He said he could speak but briefly after the oratory that had preceded him*, but he could add his endorsement to all that had been said. He had traveled a great deal,, and preached to all kinds of people. He had found that the particular kind of doctrine preached made little difference. What is wanted is practical sort of work. If such ideas could not be carried out, he would lose his faith in humanity. The cry all over the world is "less doctrine and more bread." He thought the sending' of missionaries to India all right; he had no objections to offer, but he thought it would be better to send fewer men and more money. So far as India was concerned, she had religious doctrine to spare. Living up to the doctrines was needed more than more doctrines. The people of India, as well as the people all over the world, had been taught to pray, but prayer with the lips was not enough ; people should pray with their hearts. "A few people in the world," he said, "really try to do good. Others look on and applaud, and think that they themselves have done great good. Life is love, and when a man ceases to do good to others, he is dead spiritually." On Sunday evening next Swami Vivekananda will make the address of the evening at the Lyceum.
They Expound Religion of Action at the Lvceum Theatre.
The Last Mentioned is a Hindoo High Priest Who Is Traveling through the United States – Commending The Action of Dr. Parkhurst in New York.
Dynamic religion, or religion of action, was expounded in addresses last night at the Lyceum Theatre by Rev. Hiram Vrooman, Rev. Walter Vrooman and Mr. Carl Vrooman.
The three are brothers. Rev. Hiram Vrooman is pastor of New Jerusalem Church, Baltimore. Rev. Walter Vrooman is a member of the Arena Magazine staff. Mr. Carl Vrooman is president of the Intercollegiate Debating Union, and was last year winner in the debate for the championship between Harvard and Yale .Universities.
Swami Vivekananda, a Hindoo high priest, added his testimony to that of the other speakers in urging the necessity of more practice and less preaching in overcoming evil.
The theatre was crowded with an audience which showed appreciation of the address and evident sympathy with their object by earnest attention and frequent applause.
Vivekananda was one of the delegates to the World's Congress of Religions last year at Chicago. He has since been traveling about the United States, studying American customs and institutions. He wears a costume of a bright red cloak and yellow turban, with a long streamer hanging down his back. He speaks fluently in English.
On account of his bronze skin Vivekananda had a little difficulty securing hotel accommodations when he arrived in Baltimore on Saturday. Rev. Walter Vrooman took him to four hotels before he was accepted as a guest at the Rennert.
"We have doctrines enough," he continued. "What we want now is practical work as presented in these speeches. When asked about the missionaries sent to India I reply all right. But we want money more and men less. India has bushels full of doctrines and to spare. What is wanted is the means to carry them out.
"Prayer may be done in different ways. Prayer with the hands is yet higher than prayer with the lips and is more saving.
"All religions teach us to do good for our brothers. Doing good is nothing extraordinary – it is the only way to live. Everything in nature tends to expansion for life and contraction for death. It is the same in religion.
Do good by helping others without ulterior motives.The moment this ceases contraction and death follow.
Rev. Hiram Vrooman opened the meeting by reading the story of David and Goliath.
The Reverend Hiram Vrooman, and, later, Walter and Carl Vrooman, went on in this vein at some length. And although Swamiji listened with "imperturbable stolidity," I do not think the present readers need be burdened with the Vrooman orations regarding the corruption in Baltimore politics in 1894.
The second meeting of the Vrooman brothers was held on Sunday, October 21, at which time Swamiji was the main speaker. It was natural, in view of the brothers' preoccupation with "Goliath," that he should speak of Buddha, who discovered the very root of all evil, all suffering. In the following report from the Morning Herald of October 22, I have omitted the talks of the Vroomans. Suffice it to say that they were long, verbose, and again concerned with political immorality.

Second of the Vrooman Brothers' Meetings in the Interest Of "Dynamic Religion" – The Judiciary and How It Should be Maintained.
An audience which filled the Lyceum Theatre from pit to dome assembled last night at the second of the series of meetings held by the Vrooman Brothers in the interest of "Dynamic Religion." Fully 3,000 persons were present.
discussions upon' the nature of the human soul. There was no remedy according to the ideas then prevailing for the cure of religious ills but sacrifices of animals, sacrificial altars and similar methods.
is the cause of this evil ?' This he ascribed to the desires of men to be superior to others, an evil that could be cured by unselfishness. "Third, 'This evil is curable by becoming unselfish.Force, he concluded, could not cure it; dirt cannot wash dirt; hate cannot cure hate.
"This was the basis of his religion. So long as society tries to cure human selfishness by laws and institutions whose aim is to force others to do good to their neighbors, nothing can be done. The remedy is not to place trick against (rick and force against force. The only remedy is in making unselfish men and women. You may enact laws to cure present evils, but they will be of no avail.
"Buddha found in India too much talking about God and His essence and too little work. lie always insisted upon this fundamental truth, that we are to be pure and holy, and that we are to help others to be holy also. He believed that man must go to work and help others ; find his soul in others ; find his life in others. He believed that in the conjunction [sic] of doing good to others is the only good we do ourselves. He believed that there was always in the world too much theory and too little practice. A dozen Buddhas in India at the present time would do good, and one Buddha in this country would also be beneficial.
At the conclusion of Mr. Vivekananda's address there was a hearty burst of applause.
Swami Vivekananda's Address at the Lyceum Theater.
Revs. Hiram and Walter Vrooman also spoke.
Excuse my long silence but I have been regularly writing to mother church. I am sure you are all enjoying this nice cool weather. I am enjoying Baltimore and Washington very much. I will go hence to Philadelphia. I thought Miss Mary was in Philadelphia and so I wanted her address. But as she is in some other place near Philadelphia I do not want to give her the trouble to come up to see me as mother church says.
The lady with whom I am staying is Mrs. Totten a niece o£ Miss Howe. I will be her guest more than a week yet so you may write to me to her care.
I intend going over to England this winter somewhere in January or February. A lady from London with whom one of my friends is staying has sent an invitation to me to go over as her guest and from India they are urging me every day to come back.
How did you like Pi too in the cartoon? Do not show it to anybody. It is too bad of our people to caricature Pitoo that way.
I long ever so much to hear from you but take a little more care to make your letter just a bit more distinct. Do not be angry for the suggestion.
might have been a little cold at the beginning but we hope that it is all for good ; but we believe Baltimore will appreciate you better.
Your last letter seemed to us not to have been written in your usual mood. There is more of exhaustion visible in it. So far as we are concerned we do not very much complain about your long stay in America for we sincerely feel that that land has afforded you a large and suitable field for the message of the Lord. It was there that all the priests of different religions heard first the message of the Lord, it was there the message was appreciated and reverenced.
see the Lord? I am afraid I am growing stupid and troublesome.
I already alluded in our last letters to you that everything that you do there rebounds to India with a greater force. Everybody here now feels Religion in the air. Some of the missionaries here the friends of the degraded Heathen just now seem to have risen from their dream, and feel the atmosphere insalubrious and after wisely tracing everything home to you, have begun to hurl their lances at you from here across the seas. Alasinga sent you by the last a review of an article by a missionary one Hudson in the Xian College magazine.
The same votary of Christ has launched another letter in the Calcutta "Statesman," which purports to say that the appreciation of Vivekananda by the Americans was chielly due to his flowing robe and orange turban. The Editor of the "Madras Times," a European, has reviewed it in an editorial which is herewith sent.
The sashtanga pranamas of all our Madras friends to Swamiji.
appeared in a European Daily here reviewing a missionary's criticism on your exposition of Hinduism referred to by G. G. Please don't fail to inform us before you leave America for England, and give directions to our letters being directed to you in England. Time forbids me from writing more. Dr., Kidi and all other friends send their pranams to you.
I am sorry to inform you that there is a rumour here that Bhattacharji has been transferred to Calcutta.
The gap in Madras society cannot at all be filled up. Perhaps he has done his work in Madras – that of introducing you to Madras.
Accept my adoration of your love.
ONLY A HINDOO MONK Vivekananda Believes Not in the Tricks of the Yogis.
announces himself as a religious student and a teacher to rhc world at large, is certainly something of a rarity.
This Hindoo monk, or "swami," is Mr. Vivekananda, now the guest of Col. Enoch Totten, of this city. Mr. Kananda is booked to lecture twice in Washington within the next week and a half, but he spoke twice yesterday without special announcement, before the congregation of the People's Church in the Typographical Temple. He attended the parliament of religions in Chicago during the World's Fair, and is now touring the country, lecturing and preaching in various cities. Though a member of the parliament of religions, Mr. Kananda claims no sect, calling himself simply a Hindoo, which term he uses to indicate both race and religion. His position regarding the religion of his country would be about that of a Unitarian in this country but for the fact that the Brama Sumage [Brahmo Samaj] claim the title of Hindoo Unitarians, leaving Mr. Kananda a free lance, outside the very outer wall.
Mr. Kananda spoke yesterday at the People's Church on the invitation of Dr. Kent, pastor of the church. His talk in the morning was a regular sermon, dealing entirely with the spiritual side of religion, and presenting the, to orthodox sects, rather original proposition that there is good in the foundation of every religion, that all«4E£ligions, like languages, are descended from a common stock, and that each is good in its corporal and spiritual aspects so long as it is kept free from dogma and fossilism. The address in the afternoon was more in the form of a lecture on the Aryan race, and traced the descent of the various allied nationalities by their language, religion and customs from the common Sanskrit stock.
After the meeting, to a Post reporter Mr. Kananda -said: "I claim no affiliation with any religious sect, but occupy the position of an observer, and so far as I may, of a teacher to mankind. All religion to me is good. About the higher mysteries of life and existence I can -do no more than speculate, as others do. Reincarnation seems to me to be the nearest to a logical explanation for many things with which we are confronted in the realm of religion. But I do not advance it as a doctrine. It is no more than a theory at best, and is not susceptible of proof except by personal experience, and that proof is good only for the man who has it. Your experience is nothing to me, nor mine to you. I am not a believer in miracles – they are repugnant to me in matters of religion. You might bring the world tumbling down about my ears, but that would be no proof to me that there was a God, or that you worked by his agency, if there was one.
Mr. Kananda is a native of Calcutta, and a graduate of the government university there. He speaks English like a native, having received his university training in that tongue. He has had good opportunity to observe the contact between the natives and the English, and it would disappoint a foreign missionary worker to hear him speak in very unconcerned style of the attempts to convert the natives. In this connection he was asked what effect the Western teaching was having on the thought of the Orient.
Mr. Kananda will remain in Washington till Thursday, when he lectures at Metzerott Hall on "Reincarnation" and after a short visit to New York will return to speak on "Gods of all nations" on the following Tuesday.
The first of these lectures Swamiji gave ; but it was his last in Baltimore. Suddenly, and for reasons that are at present unknown, his plans changed, and he returned to New York. This we learn from the Vroornan brothers. "It was announced," a sentence reads in a report of their meeting of November 4 at the Lyceum Theatre, "that Rev. Swami Vivekananda, the India High Priest, had been called suddenly to New York, and would not lecture in the Concert Hall, Academy of Music, tonight." Thus, two or three days before planned, Swamiji's visit to Baltimore and Washington came to an end.
It can be mentioned, however, that while he was lecturing in those cities, Christian missionary societies throughout the country were holding their annual meetings. "The reports of most of the conferences thus far heard from," writes the Methodist Protestant of October 10, "show a decided falling off in receipts for Foreign Missions." In view of this disconcerting fact and in view of Swamiji's presence, it is not surprising that in both Baltimore and Washington much stress was laid by the missionaries upon their achievement in India. As reported in the papers, their meetings seemed concerned with little else. In one news item the sacred city of Muttra and its surrounding towns were said to have been entirely converted to Christianity. Another stated: "18 Brahmins, or high caste Indians [have] accepted Christianity, [which fact] effectively contradicts the statement published on Brahministic authority, that no Brahmin had ever been converted to Christianity." The Baltimore Sun of October 17 ran an article which was headlined: "The Christian Religion – President Bonney Says That The Parliament of Religions Will Make it Supreme." Was Bonney, the president of the Parliament, whom Swamiji had so admired, now regretting his dream of religious fraternity ? It would appear so. At any rate, it is certain that the outcome of the Parliament was, to say the least, an unexpected one, and it is'equally certain that the cause of the upset was clear to everyone. Indeed, wherever Swamiji went there was a background of muttering, audible behind the applause and punctuated from time to time by shrill cries – as in Detroit, and again, as will be seen later, in Brooklyn.
"I shall be in Philadelphia a few days only to see Prof-Wright," Swamiji wrote to Mary Hale from Washington, "and then I go to New York and run for a little while between New York and Boston, and then go to Chicago via Detroit; and then 'whist' – as Senator Palmer says to England." Since Swamiji was called suddenly to New York, it is not likely that he stopped by in Philadelphia to visit Professor Wright. Nor do we know of his whereabouts during most of November. We can only assume that, as he says, he ran for a little while between New York and Boston and also visited Chicago via Detroit.
It is probable, however, that he spent a good part of November in New York City, and it was, in any case, during this month that he organized a society there. On November 30 he wrote to Alasinga: "I have already established a society in New York. The vice-president of the society will soon write to you. Please start correspondence with them as soon as you can. I hope I shall be able to start such societies in several other places." Although we do not know at present either the name or the nature of this society, it was very likely formed with a mixed purpose. As early as July 11 Swamiji had written to Alasinga, "When the cold weather comes and people return to their homes, I shall begin lecturing again, and at the same time organize societies." The purpose of the societies Swamiji had in mind at that time was no doubt as much financial as philosophical and religious, for we find him writing on August 31 to the same disciple: "I have friends here who take care of all my monetary concerns. … It will be a wonderful relief to me to get rid of horrid money affairs. So the sooner you organize yourselves and you be ready as secretary and treasurer to enter into direct communication with my friends and sympathizers here, the better for you and me." The New York society which Swamiji formed in November was no doubt organized partly in pursuance of this plan. But, as will be seen in a later chapter, toward the erd of 1894 he was also becoming keenly aware of America's need for the religion of India; thus the society was undoubtedly concerned also with the religious and philosophical aspects of his work.
The Cambridge Classes were, in a sense, a prelude to what were, perhaps, the greatest intellectual honors paid to Swamiji in America – that of being invited to speak before the Graduate Philosophical Society of Harvard University on March 25, 1896, and, after his talk there on "T he Vedanta Philosophy," of being offered the chair in Eastern Philosophy – a position which he declined.
But although Mrs. Bull personally sent Mary Hale an invitation to visit her, Mary Hale remained aloof. It was not until March of 1895 that these two close friends of Swamiji met.
One of Swamiji's lectures in Cambridge particularly impressed the women to whom he spoke. As it is told in "The Life" Swamiji delivered at the request of Mrs. Bull a lecture on "The Ideals of Indian Women" He dwelt on the nobility and beauty of the Hindu women and on the high regard in which they, as mothers, were held. At the end he saluted his own mother to whose unselfish love and purity he owed, he said, all that he had been able to accomplish in this world. This picture of Hindu women – so different from that painted by the missionaries and others – deeply stirred the women of Cambridge and Boston. Unknown to Swamiji they sent to his mother a picture of the Virgin Mary and Child accompanied by a letter of profound salutations and respect. Remembering how keenly Swamiji felt for his mother, this tribute, of all his triumphs, perhaps gave him, when he heard of it, the deepest personal joy.
In a letter to Mary Hale written on Friday, December 21, Swamiji says, "I am going away next Tuesday [Christmas Day] to New York." It is possible that he meant "Thursday" but if he had indeed planned to travel on Christmas Day, he was probably persuaded to postpone his trip until the twenty-eighth, for it was on that date that he arrived in New York to keep an appointment with the officers of the Brooklyn Ethical Association. | {

Q: Why it's more difficult to walk in an inclined plane than in a causal road my question is about something very casual , but when i tried to solve that , it was not easy at all . My question is : "Why when we walk in an inclined plane we get tired more than when we walk in casual road, when angle = 0 . This question came to me when i was climbed up. I know that is something about angle and friction force but i cant solve this . I need your help .
A: For each step in walking;
On a horizontal road: $F=ma$
And on an inclined road: $F-mg\sin\theta=ma$
So you need more power (greater $F$) when you are walking up a hill. It may be useful that we know maximum force $F$ we can use when we are walking is the limiting friction force.
Figure below shows free body diagram for walking on a horizontal road.

KMI should publish an assessment of the long-term portfolio impacts of scenarios consistent with the internationally recognized goal of limiting the global increase in temperature to 2 degrees Celsius.
As long-term shareholders in Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI), we would like to understand how our company is planning for the risks and opportunities presented by global efforts to keep temperatures within the below-2-degrees Celsius goals of the Paris Agreement. KMI acknowledged in its 2016 10-K filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that "greenhouse gas regulations could have material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows." A brief statement paper on climate change was also issued, but the disclosure did not provide investors with any analysis regarding how KMI's portfolio of assets or planned capital expenditures perform under potential regulations and other carbon constraints inherent in a 2-degree scenario. KMI, as one of the largest energy infrastructure companies in North America, has extensive and expanding interests in the transport of energy sources including coal, oil, and natural gas. KMI intends to make significant infrastructure investments in the highest carbon fuels, including oil sands.
KMI intends to invest over $5 billion to expand its Canadian oil sands export capacity to the West Coast and Asia. This investment is of concern due to strong community and First Nations opposition, particularly in British Columbia. In addition, persistently low prices challenge the breakeven price of new oil sands production that would feed this pipeline, raising questions about the project's long-term viability. Canada has already begun to implement policies and develop new regulations, including a price on carbon, geared towards meeting its obligations under the Paris Agreement.
Investors are increasingly focused on the need for robust climate disclosure, including scenario analysis. In June 2017, the Financial Stability Board's Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures finalized its guidelines for reporting on climate risk, recommending that companies in the energy sector evaluate the potential impact of different scenarios, including a 2-degree scenario, on the organization's businesses, strategy, and financial planning. Investors representing over $25 trillion in assets publicly endorsed the Task Force recommendations.
A 2-degree scenario analysis of KMI's future plans will generate a more complete picture of present and future risks and opportunities. Currently, our company only provides business-as-usual planning and risk analysis, which is not sufficient to prepare for a set of risks as large and complex as climate change. The requested report will reassure investors that KMI is poised to manage and take advantage of future regulatory, technological, and market changes. | {

Y Ddraig Goch – Another Different Tale
Posted by Shawn MacKENZIE in Dragon Keeper's Handbook, Dragon Tales, Fairy Tales, Month of the Dragon, Tell-A-Dragon-Tale Week, WAFDE, Y Draig Goch
Dragon Keeper's Handbook, Dragons, Fairy Tales, Month of the Dragon, Philip Pullman, Tell-a-Dragon-Tale, WAFDE, Wales, Y Ddraig Goch
In his delighful Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm, Philip Pullman says that, unlike "literary" works where the author's text – the words as set down upon the page – are the heart of the thing, "a fairy tale is not a text of that sort." A fairy tale is shaped with each telling by each teller.
It's a transcription made on one or more occasions of the words spoken by one of many people who have told this tale….The fairy tale is in a perpetual state of becoming and alteration. To keep to one version or one translation alone is to put a robin redbreast in a cage. (Which 'puts all Heaven in a Rage' [Wm. Blake])
Being a storyteller, I wholeheartedly agree, especially when it comes to Dragon tales.
Yesterday, I presented the 'traditional' lore surrounding Cymu's Y Ddraig Goch. Today, I offer a more whimsical version I cobbled together a few years back. I hope you enjoy.
A Lost Dragon Found:
The Red Dragon of Wales
As everyone knows, Dragons come in a rainbow of colours: green, gold, black, and blue. Their scales sparkle like emeralds and shimmer like embers on the hearth. And when they wish to hide, they can blend into the background like nobody's business. Get a bunch of Dragonkeepers together and they will each have their own opinion about which shade is the most common or handsome or prized. One thing most people agree on is that one of the rarest—and most famous—Dragons in the world is the Red Dragon of Wales. Or, as the Welsh call him, Y Draig Goch. This noble creature is so famous he even has his profile on the flag of his homeland.
But how did this wonderful creature come into being? Where was he born and how was he tended?
There are many stories about the Red Dragon, about his origins and what he means to the people of Wales. Some include wizards and great kings and fierce battles between nations. Proper Dragon stuff, for sure. However, the tale I like best I heard from an elegant green Dragon from the Enchantments of Anglesey in northern Wales. Her name was Cymcaille, and this is what she told me:
Long, long ago, when Stonehenge still had that new temple smell and London was barely a pit stop for invading Romans, there was a village in Wales in the lush, green valley of the Glaslyn River, a village so small it didn't have a name. The people who lived there were strong and wise. They fished the river and hunted the woods; they tended their sheep and cattle and fields. They feasted when there was plenty and shared when there was little. And like one big family, everyone, from young child to grey-haired elder, worked hard and played hard when their chores were done.
Glaslyn River, Cymru
Now, the clan chief had two children, a daughter, Efa, who was ten, and her eight-year-old brother, Brychan. Every morning these two woke up just looking for trouble. They would hurry through their daily tasks, eager to run off to the woods or down to the river. One day in late summer, with chores done and lessons learned, Efa and Brychan headed out to pick blackberries. The berries were so big and juicy that more went into their stomachs than their basket, and, by late afternoon, they were purple-fingered and full, with nothing to show for their labours. Not wanting to go home empty handed, they walked along the river, hoping to find a fish or two tangled in the nets stretched across the shallows. But the fish were too clever and refused to get caught that day. Just about ready to give up, Efa and Brychan rounded the bend in the river and there, in the last net, saw the strangest thing they'd ever seen: a great round egg, all midnight blue with specks of silver.
"Let's smash it," Brychan said grabbing a stick thick as his arm. "I want to see what's inside!"
"No!" Efa said. She stood between her brother and their find. "No, I have a better idea: we'll hatch it."
Brychan thought about it for a moment, then smiled. What a great idea! Besides, his sister was older than him and would squash him in a second if he crossed her. With his big stick, they dug a hole in the sunny side of the bank. Then, working together, they freed the egg from the net, rolled it to the hole, and buried it where it would stay warm and out of harm's way.
"This is our secret," Efa warned her brother. "Don't breathe a word to anyone."
"Not even Mother and Father?"
"Especially them. Come on, it's getting late!" And they ran back to the village, arriving just in time for supper.
Now, Efa didn't know it then, but she was about to become a Dragon Keeper. Led by common sense and good instincts, she returned to the egg every couple of days—more often when she could. Sometimes Brychan even tagged along. She dug up the egg, tapped it, talked to it, then returned it to its warm, sandy nest.
So the summer passed, day upon day, week upon week, until the sun travelled lower in the sky and a whiff of coming autumn lingered in the air.
"Is it going to hatch soon?" Brychan asked impatiently as they pulled turnips and greens from the garden.
"I don't know," Efa said, unable to lie even to her pest of a brother.
"Well, I should have cracked it open—Whack!—long ago. Then we'd know—"
"Absolutely nothing. We'd just have a broken egg. Too big to even scramble!" Brychan laughed then shrugged, returning to a particularly stubborn turnip that wanted to spend another day or two underground.
Though she wouldn't say so out loud, Efa was as eager as her brother to know what grew inside the star-lit-shell. Something amazing was about to happen, she knew it in her bones. And as soon as she could, she gave her brother the slip and ran off to the check on her treasure. When she neared the river, her heart sank. Through the brambles and honeysuckle, she saw waters churned up and muddy, a great mass of paw prints ripped deep into the bank. My egg! Someone's after my egg! And without a thought to her own safety, Efa followed the tracks down the river bed, until, under a wind-bent tree, she found a lustrous silver Dragon—a mountain of a Dragon!—sobbing into her paws.
"What's wrong?" the brave child asked.
"Who are you to ask, tender morsel?" moaned the Dragon.
"I'm Efa. A—a girl. I only want to help."
"Help? Oh, how can an insignificant scaleless thing like you help me?! I am a wretched Dragon—a Dragon bereft and bewailed. A Dragon beyond help. I am a Dragon who has lost her egg."
"Was it all blue with specks as silver as your scales?"
The Mother Dragon pricked up her ears and wiped her eyes, drenching Efa in the tears she flicked from her paws. "Yes, that's it. Where is my egg, what have you done with it? Answer quick or I'll eat you where you stand!"
"Oh, I'd much rather you didn't. Really. The thing is, my brother and I found your egg caught in one of our nets. He wanted to—well, that's not important. I—we—buried it in the sun, not far from here. I've taken good care of it, I promise. I've turned it and talked to it. Come, I'll show you where." And she led the Dragon down around the bend to the sunny side of the river. There, with tears of joy, the Silver Dragon unearthed her egg, wrapped it in the curl of her tail and blew a hot-hot breath upon it.
Then they waited, Dragon and child. And when the sun tipped over the hills, and dusk was fast approaching, the egg began to tremble, to rock, to roll. Then, with a loud crack, it split open, spilling forth a baby, yolk-soaked red Dragon.
"Oh, he is perfect!" the Dragon said with proper mother's pride. "You saved him, girl, and I and all the Dragons of Cymru are eternally grateful." She plucked a scale from near her heart and placed it in the child's hands. "Keep this until our return," she said, "a sign of our thanks." And with that, she scooped the little red Dragon up in her paws and flew off into the western hills.
With a Wow! in her heart and a lump in her throat, Efa watched them disappear over the horizon. Then she plopped down on the bank and stared at the token heavy in her hand. Oh dear, she thought, how ever will I explain this to my brother?
Many years later, when Efa and Brychan had families and children of their own, a great Red Dragon swooped down into the village—the same Red Dragon they'd helped hatch so long ago that it all seemed like a dream.
"I am Y Ddraig Goch," he roared. Then recognizing the Dragon scale which hung around Efa's neck, he bowed low. "I am here to thank you for helping me come into this world. I owe you a great debt. You and your people. The Dragons of my Enchantment—my clan—owe you, too. We shall teach you and guard you, till the end of time."
Y Ddraig Goch hovering near Dinas Emrys
And so they did and so they do, to the end of time.
The Dragon & His Grandmother – Part II

Picking up where we left of…..
"Did someone say 'Dragon'?" It was a voice, rumbling low as the grave.
The brothers jumped – as much as they could in their soggy condition. Behind them stood a great, black, craggy Dragon. His eyes burned, his wings furled like wind-lashed sails.
"And what, my puny threesome, are you doing out here, cowering like mice midst a herd of cats?"
"We do not cower!" declared Osip, making himself as small as possible.
"Well, actually, yes," Luka muttered, "we do."
Only Lev stood tall before the fierce creature. "We are soldiers," he explained, "not mice."
The Dragon snorted. "And why are you not over there, with the others of your kind?"
"We have left the King's army."
"Aha! Cowards!" His fangs flashed as he rubbed his paws together. "I thought so."
"We may be deserters but it is not from cowardice," Lev continued. "The King feeds us little, pays us less, and has kept us from our families, year upon year."
"Royals are all the same," the Dragon sneered. "You expected better, I suppose. You are nothing to your King and got what you deserved."
"We could not even see our Grandmother before she died. She was a good woman and our only kin in all the world. Did we deserve that?"
A wistful sigh escaped the Dragon's maw. He, too, had a Grandmother – though whether or not he would grieve her passing was a question for another day. Playing with the mud between his claws, he ruminated aloud, "So…perish from hunger or get hung for the deserters you are. A bit of a dilemma, eh?"
The brothers hated to admit it, but the Dragon was right.
"Perhaps I will just eat you where you stand," the beast growled, relishing the smell of fear in the air. "But I'm not really hungry right now. No…. Perhaps I will help you, beyond your wildest dreams. Take you to safety. I could do that. For a price." The Dragon grinned, his warm breath singeing their hair. "Oh, I won't ask too very much," he said. "Seven years' service, that's all."
Looking one to the other, the brothers knew they were out of options. They'd given the King seven years for nothing. At least the Dragon was offering them their lives. "Whatever you ask," they replied, "it is yours."
And he scooped them up in his paws and flew east, far from battle and storm, setting them down in a sunny patch by the side of a well-travelled road. Just being on dry ground was such a delight, they almost forgot their parched throats and empty bellies.
"Where are we?" Osip asked.
"In a land where no one knows you," the Dragon said. "There is a town not more than a league to the south, down this road."
"Much good a town will do us when we're no better than beggars," complained Luka.
The Dragon scowled. These humans were never satisfied. Then, from thin air, he pulled a small whip and handed it to Lev.
"Flick this whip, and as much money as you desire will appear before you. You can live as great lords, keep manors and horses, and drive about in carriages. Or give it all to the poor, whatever you wish. For seven years, this is your boon. At the end of that time, you're mine." Then he placed a great book before them. With due solemnity, all three of them inscribed their names.
"Oh, one more thing," said the Dragon, spreading his wings and rising into the air. "The rules say I have to give you a way out of our bargain. So, when next we meet, I will set you a riddle. Guess it, if you can, and you shall be free, out of my power forever." A stream of Dragon fire lit up the sky, and he was gone.
Say what one will, the Dragon was as good as his word. With the help of the magical lash, the brothers had riches to spare. They travelled where they pleased, and when they pleased. They lived in grand houses, wore fine clothes, and rode magnificent horses. But their lives were not all prodigal merrymaking. In honor of their Grandmother, they also used their good fortune to build schools and libraries, hospitals and museums. They even kept track of the war they'd abandoned, as it ground on ad nauseam, creating victims on all sides. They helped those they could, regardless of nation or allegiance. In short, they found their way in the world and did little wrong.
"I wonder what the Dragon would say about all we've done," Luka mused, glancing over his shoulder, just in case.
Lev laughed. "Can't speak for the Dragon," he said, "but I think Gran would be pleased we're not total scoundrels."
Unlike their stint in the military, the years full of joy and good works passed very quickly for the brothers. So it was, with hardly expectation or warning, they found themselves in the glade where their adventures had begun with only a fortnight left to call their own.
Osip and Luka paced up and down, up and down, until they wore the sod bare. They had grown accustomed to the easy life, and the thought of being in a Dragon's service for even one day did not appeal at all.
Lev, on the other hand, remained sanguine and carefree. He lay down on the grass and stared into the clear blue sky. "Oh, sit down, you two," he said. "You worry like old hens. We just have to guess the riddle, remember? I've always been good at riddles."
"Not Dragon riddles," moaned Osip.
"Oh, God, we're doomed!" Luka cried, head in his hands. "There's no help for it, none at all."
But Lev shrugged off their gloom. "Well, no matter what," he declared, "we've had good innings. No one can take that from us, not even the Dragon."
This last thought did not cheer his brothers one bit.
As they sat by the side of the road, all long looks and creased brows, an old woman passed by. She was calico covered, head to foot, her grey straw hair spiking out from under her feathered hat.
"Sad faces on such fine gentlemen," she said. "Whatever is the matter?"
"What is it to you," snapped Osip.
"Brother, is that any way to speak to a stranger?" Lev chided. "Forgive my brother, madam. He has more on his mind than it can hold."
"Perhaps I can help," the old woman offered, "if you tell me what your trouble is."
And, because the woman reminded them not a little of their Grandmother, they told her the story of their bargain with the Dragon, and how the time was fast approaching for them to pay their due. "If only we could guess the riddle," they said.
The old woman thought for a long time. "A Dragon, hmmm, yes," she said at last. "They are tricky ones. I can tell you this: if you would help yourselves, one of you must follow that path into the woods. At the end of the path you'll find a ramshackle building all tumbled rocks and thatch, rather like a little house, perched upon two pillars, rather like giant chicken legs. Don't worry, you'll know it when you see it. There you will find the help you need." With that she bade them farewell and continued on her way.
"Well that was damn peculiar," Osip said.
"And not much help, either," added Luka.
"You two are hopeless," laughed their little brother. "Just wait here and fret – pull your hair out for good measure. I won't be long." And with that, Lev vanished into the woods.
It was almost dusk when he came upon the mound of rocks atop two pillars. It didn't look much like what you or I would call a house – though the pillars were remarkably like chicken legs – but Lev knew it when he saw it.
Inside sat a very, very old woman, her wild white hair cascading round her, down to the floor. She sniffed the air and glared at the intruder.
"Are you a fool, young man? Or just ill-mannered, barging into a stranger's house like that."
"Begging your pardon, ma'am. I try to be neither. Truth is, I was sent here by an elderly woman I met on the post road. She said you might be able to help us – my brothers and me" And Lev told the old woman their story, beginning to end.
When he finished, she patted him fondly on the knee, her head nodding up and down. "Goodness," she said, "you three have gotten into the thick of it. And I should know. The Dragon is my grandson."
"Oh, I am sorry," said Lev.
"Yes, me, too." She sniffed him again. "Well, you seem a sincere man – and I am never wrong about these things. But is it enough? These brothers of yours, they couldn't be bothered to come, I suppose? Why should I help them?"

A Dragon Tale Retold – The Dragon & His Grandmother: Part I.

As Philip Pullman explains in the Intro to his delightful, Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm, fairy tales are not, strictly speaking "texts." They are pieces of folk lore that transform with each new telling and teller. And as tellers, we change them, shade them and turn them. We pick our battles, our heroes and villains. Ultimately, with a unique voice, we make these tales our own.
The Dragon and His Grandmother is (very) loosely based on an old Russian fairy tale, told in my croaky October voice and spun through the Dragon's Nest. '
I have been told it is a tad long for one sitting, so I am breaking it up over the next couple of days. For anyone who wants to read ithe tale in its entirity, it can be found here on my sister site, Off the Rails: Track 451.
The Dragon & His Grandmother
via Shawn MacKENZIE
Once, not long ago in the cosmic scheme of things, in a kingdom by the Emerald Sea, there lived an impatient prince. He had always been this way, since the day he pushed into the world three weeks early. When he crawled he was impatient to toddle; when he walked he was impatient to ride. And as prince, he was most impatient to be king.
And while he waited (impatiently) for that day, he spent hour upon hour in the royal observatory looking through his big brass telescope. He turned his eye seaward, and dreamt of travelling the waves. When he grew up he would be an explorer prince, discovering new lands no one had ever imagined.
As he got older, the sea seemed too vast and exploration too leisurely an activity for his eager nature. No immediate gratification there. So he turned his glass landward, to the nations bordering his father's kingdom. Most people would marvel at the towns and farms, forests and streams. But the young prince saw only rich, green lands begging for the conquest of a warrior king.
Now, his father, the Old King, was a fair ruler, but he was no longer a warrior. And more germane to our story, like all of us, he was mortal. In time – some say sooner than he ought, but that is another tale – he died, and his impatient son became an even more impatient king.
The moment he claimed crown and scepter, he summoned his ministers and tax collectors, armorers and generals. He was the king and he was going to expand the realm as his father never had. And he was going to do it now.
The impatient young King needed an army as fodder for this land grab. An easy prospect, being king. He simply gave the command. Every man in the kingdom over 16 and under 50 was ordered to fight under his banner. And they did. This gave him a great many soldiers in the field, but few farmers or guildsmen, smithies or tanners at home. Not that he worried about that. The war would be over in a couple of weeks. Impatient kings accept nothing less.
Of course, the people in the neighboring kingdom had other ideas. They quite liked their benevolent leader, paying fair taxes, living in peace, and had no intention of turning their lives over to some upstart despot. So, it was that they were drawn into a very long and very bloody war that could do no one any good.
As the war dragged on, year after year, the fields lay fallow, the shop shelves bare. Still the King would not quit. There was nothing with which to pay taxes, and without taxes, he had nothing with which to pay his army. Draconian threats and promises of empty glory were hardly enough to live on. Hardly enough to die for.
Among the conscripts' mud-encrusted ranks were three brothers, Osip, Luka, and Lev, grandsons and only kin of a widowed school teacher. For seven long years they'd followed their King's standard and watched their friends die. Their boots were holey, their tunics tattered; they hadn't had a warm meal in weeks. As for getting leave, they'd given up on that dream long ago. But still they stuck it out. In times of war, desertion was a capital offense, and as long as they had their heads they could hope to eventually get home, to see their Gran once more.
One day, a company of new recruits arrived in camp, clean-scrubbed innocents half of whom would be worms' meat by the end of the month. While his comrades were settling in, a lanky tow-headed lad approached the brothers.
"Friendly faces, at last!" he exclaimed. "You probably don't remember me. It's been so long. I'm Grisha. We lived next door to you. I was only eight when you went away, so…"
A flash of recognition and Osip clapped the lad on the shoulder. "Grisha, of course! My, you're quite the young man, now."
"How are things at home?" Lev asked.
"It's like a ghost town. Women, little children. A few old men. They're the only ones left. Holding things together as best they can. The kids are running wild without your Gran keeping them in line, giving them lessons."
"What do you mean?" they asked in unison.
The lad shifted on his feet. "Oh, I am so sorry," he said. "I thought – surely you must have heard."
"We've had no letters, no news, for ages."
"She died at mid-summer. The whole town came out for her funeral; she was much loved, you know."
The brothers fell silent, their grief doming round them. Grisha muttered a good-bye, then, fading back into the slog and clash of the camp, gave privacy to their loss.
Osip, the eldest was the first to speak. "We should have been there," he said, wiping his eyes. "With Gran. I've had enough of this. Enough of the cold, enough of the blood, enough of this war we've no business fighting."
"Not much we can do about it, though," Luka shrugged, as cautious as his middle-brother standing made him.
Lev tightened his belt. "Well, there's something I can do. I'm leaving. Tonight."
"That's crazy," his brothers whispered, looking over their shoulders to be sure no one was eavesdropping on their counsel. "You're talking desertion. Get caught, and it's the gallows for sure."
"I'm not planning on getting caught, am I? Just slip off now, under the new moon, and no one will notice until I'm long gone."
"What about Grisha. He's seen us, knows us; he's going to wonder."
"And if he does? Remember our first month in ranks? The captains kept us so busy we couldn't remember our own names, let alone worry about some casual acquaintance from years back. The word on the line is the whole camp's moving out tomorrow. That's less than 24 hours. I hide in that big cornfield over there and when their gone, I go the other way. Simple. Listen, I'd rather we stick together, but I will go alone if I must."
Now Lev was their little brother and Osip and Luka couldn't very well let him take off on his own. They were all the family in the world to each other, now, and family kept together. Besides, he'd always been the smart one of the three. Perhaps his plan would work. Perhaps they could get away, reinvent themselves, maybe even make their fortunes.
That night, when fires were banked and the dark face of the moon turned upon them, the brothers crept out of camp. Screened by stalk and straw, they pulled their cloaks tight and waited.
But the army did not march on. Instead, beneath a threatening sky, it remained encamped, all around them. Then the rain began, moderate at first, but by evening the air crackled with lightning and a tempest raged. Four days and four nights it rained, sometimes a torrent, sometimes a drizzle. In rising mud and misery, Osip, Luka, and Lev sat out in the field, without food, shelter, or options. Return and they'd be hung; stay and the elements would get them.
"So much for your plan, Lev," groaned Luka through chattering teeth. "We're all going to die here like drowned rats."
"You didn't have to come," Lev snapped back. "We've been the King's chattel for years. What's a little weather compared to that?"
In a futile stab at their circumstance, Osip wrung the rain from his hat then pulled it onto his head. "I'd rather face a fiery Dragon than stay here doing nothing," he said. "At least we'd be warm."

Dragons – Faerie-tale Monsters, Faerie-tale Heroes…

Confabulation of Dragons
Dragons and faërie tales have gone hand in paw since time immemorial. They anneal the mettle of would-be heroes, or, if a Dragon-by-spell, teach some haplessly ensorcelled prince or princess a valuable lesson. Western storytellers usually cast our friends as the heavies – either monsters in their own right or the minions of even darker forces. Dragons in the East are often treated with a gentler hand, more in keeping with the reverence bestowed upon their Cosmic ancestors.
Today, I offer my slightly truncated rendition of an old faërie tale from Anatolia which I first discovered when researching Dragons for Beginners. Like its land of origin, it falls somewhere between the attitudes of East and West. Enjoy.
The Black Dragon and the Red Dragon.[1]
Long, long ago, we are told, there was a Turkish king, a Padishah, who was surely the most ill-fated man in all Anatolia. He had forty children, all beautiful and loved, and all stolen from him when they reached their seventh birthdays. No one in the whole world knew such grief! How could they? He was the king, and his children were the best and the brightest! One night his royal loss became more than he could bear; pulling his despair tight about him, he walked out into the desert. J.R.R. Tolkien wrote, "Not all those who wander are lost." Sometimes we are just seeking. And sometimes, when the night of the soul is as starless as a black hole, wandering is the Universe's way of shaking us up, opening our eyes, and returning us to the light.
For many days he wandered until, one day he saw in the distance what seemed like a great army standing ready for battle. As he drew nearer he was surprised to find the army was composed of Dragons of all sizes, the smallest being as large as a camel. "Woe is me!"he groaned. "What shall I do now? If I go forward I shall certainly be cut to pieces, and I cannot go back without being seen." He prayed to Allah for deliverance from this danger.
It happened, however, that these were only newly-born Dragons, the oldest being only a few days old. Their eyes were still closed (poetic license, here, as Dragons are born with their eyes open), so they stumbled blindly around the desert, unable to find their way home. With a quick prayer of thanks, the Padishah gave the Dragons a wide berth and continued on his way.
Black Dragon – Art Fiction
That night, a terrible howling woke his uneasy sleep. It was the grief-stricken Dragon-mother calling her lost children. On seeing the man, she stood tall and thundered: "Human, what have you done to my little ones? Tell me quick or it will be the worse for you!"
Touched by her anguish – and not a little fearful – the Padishah showed respect in the face of power and related how he'd crossed paths with a veritable army of infant Dragons. Cautiously optimistic, the Black Dragon flew off and discovers that, lo, the king was right! There her children were, huddled together in the desert, frightened and forlorn. She herded them home and then, as was only fair, listened to the Padishah's own grief that she might help him as he'd helped her.
Sand Dragon – Calavera
When she heard of his stolen brood, she said, "Not to worry! Your children are in the Hyacinth Kiosk. Across this mountain is a desert where my brother lives; his children are bigger than mine and know the place well. Go to him, present my compliments, and ask him to escort you on your journey."
The King did as she advised, travelling until he reached the desert where stood a Dragon twice as large as the other, a lick of flame emerging from his eyes strong enough to scorch any being who came within reach of it. The Padishah was convinced he was doomed for sure. Still, the love of his children drove him on, and at the top of his voice he shouted to the Dragon his sister's greeting. Hearing the words the great beast opened his eyes and as he did so, it seemed as though the whole region was enveloped in flames. Too terrified to stand, the Padishah ran back the way he'd come and told the Black Dragon what had happened.
Said she: "I forgot to tell you that I am called the Black Dragon, my brother, the Red Dragon. Go back and say that the Black Dragon sends greeting. As my name is known to no one, my brother will recognize that I have sent you. Then he will turn his back towards you, and you can approach him without danger; but beware of getting in front of him, or you will become a victim of the fiery glances of his eyes."
The Shah did as he was told and the Red Dragon, with his back turned, said, "My son, if thou wouldst enter the Hyacinth Kiosk, cry aloud at the gate, 'The Red Dragon has sent me!' At this an Arab will appear: this is the very peri who has stolen your children. When he asks what you want, tell him that the great Dragon demands the largest of the stolen children. If he refuses, ask for the smallest. If again he refuses, tell him the Red Dragon demands himself. Say no more than that. Then return to me."
Mounted on the back of the Red Dragon's eldest son, the Padishah flew off to the Hyacinth Kiosk. At the top of his lungs, he shouted: "Greeting from the Red Dragon!" So mighty was the shout that earth and sky seemed to be shaken. Just as the Dragon said, an Arab appeared, holding an enormous club in his hand.
"What is the fuss?" he asked.
"The Red Dragon," said the Padishah, "demands the largest of the stolen children." "The largest is ill," answered the peri.
"Then send the smallest to him," rejoined the Padishah.
"He has gone to fetch water," replied the Arab.
"If that is so," continued the Padishah, "the Red Dragon demands thyself."
"I am going into the kiosk," said the Arab, and disappeared.
The Padishah returned to the Red Dragon. On hearing how the king's mission fared, the Dragon went to see the peri himself.
"So-ho! my dear Hyacinther," the Red Dragon yawped. "You have the children of this Padishah. Hand them over."
"I have a request," replied the peri, "and if the Padishah will grant it I will gladly return his children. Ten years ago I stole the son of a certain Padishah, and when he was twelve years old he was stolen away from me by a Dew-woman named Porsuk. This Porsuk has a son who loves me, and evil has been done me because I will not adopt him in place of the stolen boy. I am aware that the children of this Padishah are brave and handsome, and I stole them to mitigate my sufferings. If he gets me my love, I will return his."
With the help of the Red Dragon and his sons, the Padishah retrieved the peri's lost changling. As soon as he caught sight of the boy, the Hyacinth Arab embraced and kissed him, gratitude pouring from his lips to the friends who had restored him.
Keeping his word, he clapped his hands and stamped his feet on the ground and immediately forty birds flew up, singing merrily. With a sprinkling from the peri's magic flask, the birds were transformed into forty lovely maidens and handsome youths. "Behold your children, my good Shah! Take them and be happy, and pardon me the suffering I have caused thee."
A pardon was the least the Padishah could give, so joyful was he at having his children back. So they head home, a family once more. And along the way, the Padishah entertained his children with tales of his adventures, of the power of Dragons.
Black Dragon Tempest – Peter Prime
For in the course of the Padishah's trek, he went from pitiful to strong, shattered to whole, thanks in no small part to the wisdom of two remarkable beings, the Black Dragon and her brother, the Red Dragon. They not only helped him find his children but made him a better king in the process. In details as intricate as a Topkapi arabesque, he learned about families, about love and loss and setting things right. The self-absorbed Padishah at the beginning of our story would never have thought it possible for creatures, let alone Dragons, to love their children as much as he. Yet, in the company of the Black Dragon and her brother,[2] he discovered that family is family, grief is grief as anyone with more than a passing acquaintance with Dragons knows. He learned to treasure the similarities between us—even Dragons and humans—rather than fear the differences.
In the end, the Padishah returns to his palace wiser and more compassionate for his adventures. The lost are found, justice is done; there is dancing and laughter, even forgiveness where it is due. In the happily-ever-after way of these things, one likes to believe the Shah issued an edict banning Dragon hunting in perpetuity. It would have been the right thing to do.

Dragons, Fairy Tales, Fiction, Japan, Month of the Dragon
Dragons are the heart of once-upon-a time and, as such, go hand in hand with faerie tales around the world. On the last day of Tell a Dragon Tale Week, we're turning to the East and a story of a beleaguered Dragon King from the Isles of Japan.
Note: Today is the last day of Tell a Dragon Tale Week (10/21-27). That means it's your last chance to leave a comment here and have the possibility of winning a signed limited-edition copy of Shawn MacKENZIE's short story: "Because the Pleasure-Dragon Whistles." The lucky winner will be announced on October 28th.
MY LORD BAG of RICE
Once upon a time, when things in the world still made you go "Wow!" there lived in Japan a brave samurai warrior, named Hidesato. He had a wife and three children, and should have been happy, but hanging around the house just wasn't for him. He wanted adventures! So one day he took up his sword and bow, kissed his family good-bye, and headed out into the world.
He walked and walked until he came to a bridge by a beautiful lake. Coiled around the bridge, right in his path, was a great sleeping dragon. His body was as thick as a giant pine tree, his claws sharp as sabers, and when he snored the ground shook, and smoke poured out of his nostrils.
Now, Hidesato was not about to let a dragon stop him, oh no! He also knew it was very bad luck to hurt a dragon—especially one who wasn't hurting you—so, one foot after another, he stepped lightly between the dragons toes, across the dragon's scales, until he'd made it to the other side of the bridge. Then, without looking back, he went on his way.
He hadn't taken a dozen steps when a voice called out to him: "Noble knight, please wait!" He turned around and there stood not a dragon, but a curious looking man with long red, red hair, wearing a crown shaped like a Dragon's head and robes of sea-green silk. The man bowed to the warrior and Hidesato knew at once that this was no ordinary human being. Then he wondered, where had the dragon gone? Had it changed into this man? What did it all mean? While these thoughts raced through his mind he walked back across the bridge. "Did you call to me just now?" he asked.
"Yes, yes, I did," answered the man. "I am the Dragon King of the Lake, and I have a favor to ask of you. Will you grant it?"
"If I can, I will," answered Hidesato, honored that a Dragon King would think him worthy of such a request. "What can I do for you?"
"Kill my mortal enemy, the Great Centipede, who lives on that mountain," the King said, pointing to a high peak on the opposite shore of the lake.
"The monster has discovered my home beneath the bridge and, night after night, he comes down with his hundred grasping legs and carries off my children and grandchildren. My heart is broken! I know what you're thinking: I'm a Dragon—what is a Centipede to me? But I am only a lake Dragon and this beast is far more powerful than I. I thought, a human, one who can face a Dragon without fear, would be able to help me. Many men came this way, but you are the only one who did not shake and quake and run for the hills. You must be very brave. Will you kill my enemy, the Centipede, before it's too late?"
Hidesato felt very sorry for the Dragon King. Gripping his sword in one hand, his bow in the other, he said, "Where does this monster live? I will attack him at once!"
"Oh, no," the Dragon King replied. "He lives far up in the mountain. By the time you found him, you'd be too tired to fight. But every night, he comes down to the lake. Wait for him here, in my palace."
At the Dragon King's word, the waters parted and he led the warrior down to his home under the lake. Never had Hidesato seen such a beautiful palace, all white marble and crystal. Schools of goldfish, red carp, and silvery trout waited upon the Dragon King and his guest. A great feast was spread before them and there was music and dancing and the warrior quite forgot about the terrible Centipede. But at the stroke of midnight, just as the Dragon King was about to toast his guest's good health, the palace walls shook with a tramp, tramp, tramp! It sounded like an army of thousands marching their way.
Hidesato and the King rushed to the balcony. From there, the warrior saw two great balls of glowing fire coming 'round the mountain, nearer and nearer.
"The Centipede! The Centipede!" the Dragon King yelled. "Those two balls of fire are its eyes. It is coming this way. Now is the time to kill it."
The samurai peered through the night and, behind the two balls of fire, he saw the long body of an enormous Centipede winding from the top of the mountain down to the valley. The light in its hundred feet glowed like lanterns parading towards the lake.
Without a hint of fear, Hidesato called for his bow and arrows. "Don't worry, good Dragon. I shall kill the monster." Then he noticed he had only three arrows in his quiver and knew he had to make them count. He took careful aim and shot the first arrow. It hit the beast right in the middle of the forehead! But the Centipede's shell was thick as armor and the arrow bounced off. Hidesato tried again, and again his arrow fell to the ground.
The Dragon king was beginning to worry. Things were not going as planned. The huge creepy-crawler had wound its horrid body seven times round the mountain. Nearer and nearer came the fireballs of eyes, and the light of its feet began to throw reflections in the lake.
The warrior had only one arrow left. If that one failed they'd be the Centipede's dinner, for sure. Then he remembered something his father told him: human spit is deadly to centipedes. Hmmmm, he wondered. Could it work on such a giant creature? No guts, no glory: he had to try. So, taking his last arrow, he spit upon the tip, then, fitting the notch to his bow, took aim and let fly.
This time the arrow hit the Centipede right between the eyes, and he crumpled in a heap. The fire in his eyes and hundred feet faded to black, and, with a shudder the hulking body breathed its last. Darkness spread across the heavens, followed by a terrible storm with thunder and lightning and wild winds. Then the sun rose, shining off the lake like a diamond. The centipede was gone from the mountain and it was a beautiful day.
The Dragon King and his family danced with joy! (Dragon love to dance!) They bowed in thanks before Hidesato, and the King proclaimed he was the bravest man in all Japan! There was another feast, more delicious than the first. And when they were finished and very, very full, the King presented the knight with four rare and curious gifts: A large bronze bell was the first; the second was a roll of silk; the third a cooking pot; and the last a bag of rice.
"This is much too much," the man said. But the Dragon King insisted and you don't say no to a Dragon. And so, with the gifts bundled neatly in his pack, Hidesato said farewell to the King and his many children and grandchildren and made his way home.
His family came running out to meet him. "Where have you been?" they asked. "What have you done?" He told his story of dragons and centipedes and underwater palaces, and they listened with eyes wide and mouths open.
"And these are the treasures the Dragon King gave me," he beamed, unloading his pack. And it turned out that the Dragon's gifts were not in the least common; they were magical. The roll of silk never grew shorter no matter how much was cut from it or how many robes were made. The pot was a cook's dream: no matter what was put into it, it turned into the most delicious food, exactly what was wanted. And the bag of rice was bottomless! Day after day, scoop after scoop, it fed family and friends and remained always full.
Word of knight's bravery and good fortune soon spread across the land, and since he did not need to spend money on rice or silk, he grew very rich, indeed, and became known as My Lord Bag of Rice.
As for the bronze bell, it was beautiful but turned out to be quite ordinary, so Hidesato gave it to the local temple. And there it rings out the hours, to this very day.

The recent election and being accountable
"Okay, Fahrquar, say the words!"
Before I write anything else, I have to say one thing: I was wrong.
When I wrote after the Indiana primary, where Donald Trump de facto secured the Republican nomination:
When Trump gets swamped in November; when Obamacare becomes irreversible; when the Senate flips back to the Democrats; when even the House is lost; when Hillary gets away with her felonies; when all the gains we made in state legislatures and governorships are pissed away; when the economy still stinks; when the IRS goes back to abusing people whose opinions it doesn't like; when the state grows and grows and grows and our rights shrink ever further and the world becomes ever more dangerous, well, that's the choice you made.
I, along with so many others, got it all wrong. In fact, about the only people to forecast the election correctly were the Trump team itself, and a few perceptive journalists who saw the growing populist wave for what it was. My friend Salena Zito was one of the latter. You should really read her articles — she knows her stuff.
So, too, did Donald Trump, who spotted and gambled on a popular discontent with the governing class that most everyone else underestimated, and won.
So, just as I demand accountability in others, I expect it of myself. I freely admit I was wrong about Trump's chances and the outcome of the election.
Does this mean I've become a Trump fan or supporter? No. I stand by my criticisms of him, whom I consider unqualified for the job, and his supporters, who've made an extremely risky bet with the nation's future at stake. Were the election to be replayed, I would still oppose him and I would still vote for almost anyone but.
But, the election is over, and Trump has won in a legitimate, fair election. In a constitutional republic, that means we accept the results and give Trump and his team their chance to prove themselves. That's what I intend to do: skeptical as I am, I will give President Trump the benefit of the doubt and a chance to prove me wrong, just as I did with President Obama.
And I hope he does just that. The passions of politics aside, the responsibilities of he presidency are so great, and the state of the world so parlous, only a fool would do otherwise.
I may have been wrong, but I am no fool. I hope President Trump succeeds and turns out to be a fine Chief Executive.
One thing has struck me in the days since the election: just how calm and accepting I and other "Never Trumpers" have been about the results. (Unlike the juvenile, thuggish Left.) I think it's due to a couple of things:
First, relief that the Republicans retained the Senate and House with minimal losses, while expanding their hold over governorships and state legislatures. This bodes well for getting needed reforms done, and spares the nation of the horror of New York Senator Chuck Schumer as Majority Leader. It also gives me hope that the Supreme Court won't swing in a more progressive, anti-Constitutional direction. Fingers crossed.
But, what gave me joy the day after was not Trump's election, but the crushing defeat of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton crime family. To see "Lady Macbeth" denied that prize for which she'd sacrificed almost everything, including her professed feminist principles… Well, I'll admit something else: I laughed out loud. Literally. That her and her clan of grifters and corruptionists and all their progressive hangers-on were left crying through the egg on their faces was a joy I'll savor for a long time.
Whatever else comes of the election of Donald Trump, the banishment of Hillary and Bill Clinton from our political life can only be a good thing.
So, what comes in the future? Watching and waiting. I'll support Trump when I think he's right and I'll oppose him when I think he's wrong. I won't rush to rejoin the Republican Party, because I don't like the populist direction it's gone in. But I will be willing to ally with them for the right causes. And I hope Congress will take this opportunity to reassert its role as a co-equal branch of government, checking the Executive when needed. Passing the REINS act to check the out of control regulatory state would be a great start.
But, for now, congratulations President-elect Trump, and best of luck to you in your administration.
The nation needs it.

Assessing Trump's Acceptance Speech at the GOP Convention: Fact-Checking the Fact-Checkers
I'm not a fan of Trump (to say the least), but the sloppy work, bias, and outright dishonesty of "fact checkers" is something we shouldn't tolerate.
Since I'm not a fan of either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, I think that puts me in a good position to fairly assess whether the candidates are being dishonest.
And since several media outlets just produced their "fact-checks" on Donald Trump's acceptance speech to the Republican convention, this is a perfect opportunity to see not only whether Trump was being dishonest but also whether media fact-checking is honest.
Here's some of the "fact-checking" from NBC., with each indented example being followed by my two cents.
TRUMP CLAIM: Nearly four in 10 African-American children are living in poverty, while 58 percent of African-American youth are now not employed. Two million more Latinos are in poverty today than when the President took his oath of office less than eight years ago.
THE FACTS: Yes, 38 percent of African American children are living in poverty, according to Census data. But…

Did Aliens' "Private Hudson" foreshadow the Republican Party of 2016?
"We're gonna nominate Trump? What are we gonna do now, huh?"
Bill Paxton's "Private Hudson" is a fan-favorite character in 1986's "Aliens," an overall great movie. But was he also an omen for the Republican Party's fate thirty years later?
Don't look at me like that, I think I'm on to something here. Consider:
The Republicans started the presidential cycle full of confidence and hope. They had many good, respected candidates. The current administration was unpopular, its policies moreso, and the Democrats' leading candidate to succeed the president was awful. The Republicans had every reason to be confident. To act like "badasses", even. Just like Hudson:
But things went downhill from there. An alien monster invaded the primary, and one promising candidate after another failed and dropped out until, on the night of the Indiana primary, Ted Cruz and John Kasich ended their campaigns, leaving the field to Trump. The race was seemingly over. Amidst the flaming wreckage of the party's once-soaring hopes, it was "game over."
Just as Private Hudson foretold:
I wonder if Trumpkins "mostly come out at night"?
Still, some fight on against Trumpery under the banner of "Never Trump," refusing to give in and promising a fight to the death at the convention.
Did Private Hudson prophesy their fate, too?
Who needs the Oracle of Delphi when we have Private Hudson?
PS: Yeah, I'm "never Trump," but the thought of this comparison got me laughing so hard last night, I had to share.

California Primary: my last ballot as a Republican, and the cowardice of state Democrats
Thrilled to vote against Trump
Well, that's that. I've just filled in my mail-in ballot and cast my last vote as a Republican, the party I've identified with for 45 years. Like I said before, I refuse to be part of a party that nominates an anti-constitutional authoritarian populist demagogue. (1)
Instead I cast my vote for president for… (drumroll) …John Kasich. Not that I would ever vote for him normally (I still think he's a sanctimonious ass), but what little polling there was for California showed he had the best chance of beating Trump in my congressional district. So, strategic voting it was. Go, Kasich.
"This is my happy face"
That aside, there were a few other elections of note. In the race to be among the top two finishers and thus earn a spot in the general election for the federal Senate, we had 34 (!) candidates to choose from. (2) Since there was no way I was voting for Attorney General Kamala Harris or bigoted dimwit Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez, and most of the other candidates I'd never heard of, I cast my ballot for Thomas Del Beccaro, a former state chair of (what's left of) the Republican Party in California. Who knows, with so many Democrats splitting the vote, he just might sneak into the top two.
For the House and State Assembly races, I voted for the Republican as the only other choice besides the (statist, progressive) Democrat incumbents. Not that the Rs have any chance: there are so few in these districts, I think they can be counted on two hands with fingers left over.
Judicial races are always frustrating: few candidates even have web sites, and I never see them campaigning, so I know next to nothing about them when election day rolls around. My default is to vote for the incumbent or, if there is none, to prefer a prosecutor.
There was only one proposition on the ballot: a constitutional amendment to allow the legislature to suspend members without pay. I voted for it. However, this is also where the "cowardice of state Democrats" part comes in.
This proposition should have been named the "Senator Leland Yee" bill in honor of the Democrat state senator indicted for arms-trafficking. In addition, that same year, another Democrat state senator was convicted of voter fraud and perjury, while a third Democrat was indicted for bribery. 2014 was a banner year for California Democrats.
Funny thing, though. They weren't expelled from the Senate, even though that body had plenary power and every reason to do so. Why, you may ask? Because expulsion meant special elections to fill those seats and, with all the negative publicity for Democrats these scandals and the expulsions would bring, there would have been a decent chance of Republicans capturing one or more. This, in turn, would have made it harder for Democrats to regain the filibuster-proof two-thirds majority in the state senate (they have that easily in the Assembly) that would enable them to tax-and-spend even more wildly than they do now. So, no expulsions, and the corrupt Democrat senators kept their seats until one finally resigned. (3)
However, to make themselves look good, Senate Democrats under then-Senate President Steinberg proposed this amendment to allow suspension without pay. That'll show those crooks! This proves California Democrats are tough on political corruption!
Even though they refused to expel three corrupt Democrat senators…
Cowards.
Still, the bill is worthwhile on its own merits, so I voted for it. Ballot marked, envelope signed and sealed, ready to mail.
And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to change my registration to "decline to state."
(1) And those are Trump's good points.
(2) And you thought the Republican presidential primary was overcrowded…
(3) Senator Calderon (D), indicted for bribery, took a "leave of absence" and was term-limited out at the next election. Senator Yee was suspended with pay until replaced in the next election. Only Senator Wright had the decency to resign.

I did not leave the Republican Party. The Republican Party left me.
First, a video I think fitting to the occasion:
Such is my mood.
Tonight, Donald Trump won convincingly in the Indiana primary, and Ted Cruz ended his race shortly thereafter. Thus, the last conservative candidate and potentially competent president left the field. All we're left with is a choice between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, between an incompetent leftist who should be in prison and an incompetent would-be caudillo who is America's answer to Hugo Chavez. And the latter is now the face and voice of the ostensibly *conservative* party.
With that, I am no longer a Republican, for I cannot be part of any organization or faction lead by a corrupt, emotionally unstable statist and narcissist who makes Barack Obama look like Solon.
To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, I did not leave the Republican Party. The Republican Party left me.
You know what amazes me? This election season. It began with such hope: an administration with unpopular policies; a corrupt, unlikable, and incompetent probable Democratic nominee; and a large Republican field offering many excellent choices. If any election was a shoo-in for Republicans and conservatives, it was this one.
And it all crashed and burned like the Hindenburg.
And you know who is responsible for this? No, not Donald Trump. He had every right to run and make his case to the public. Nor is the Republican Party ultimately to blame, though they helped create the conditions that drove alienated voters to Trump. The large field of candidates wasn't responsible, because people could still have made a choice to coalesce around someone other than Trump. But, they didn't. The media? Please. They whored themselves for Trump, certainly, but, again, the media doesn't have mind-control rays to make voters vote a certain way. The final choice still stays with the true sovereign in the country: the voter.
And that is who is truly responsible and to blame for the rise of Donald J. Trump and the likely electoral disaster the Republican Party and conservative movement face in November, as well as the harm the nation will suffer under a Clinton presidency: the Republican primary voter.
Yeah, it's your fault.
It's all on you, the voter.
You maniacs. You blew it up.
On the verge of the easiest win we've ever had and a chance to make historic improvements in this country and undo the damage of the last 16 years, you decided that now was the perfect time to have a tantrum and break it all. Consider these six names:
Jindal
All of them were there for your choosing. Any one of them would likely have made a good president, maybe even great, and certainly better than Barack Obama has been, Hillary Clinton will be, and Donald Trump could be only in his dreams.
But, instead, you chose the guy who pandered to your justified anger. The con-artist who told you he knew how to make you great again, even though his policy prescriptions were so incoherent that even a resident of Wonderland would be confused.
The duty of a citizen is more than the act of voting and chanting "USA! USA! USA!" at sporting events.
The duty of a citizen is to use his or her vote wisely, with reason and thought toward what is best for the Republic, with sound judgment of the candidate's character, and not to give it to a sideshow barker selling "Dr. Feelgood's Miracle Cure." There is no way a reasonable, sober, intellectually honest and responsible citizen could look at Donald Trump and think him in any way qualified to be president.
But then there's you.
You had a duty, Trump voters, and you failed in it. You tossed away the heritage the Founders left us to swoon over a new Juan Peron.
You blew it up.

(Video) I'm angry, so I'm voting for Donald Trump!
No, not me, silly. The great Andrew Klavan:
It's parody, of course (1), but Andrew captures well the irrational spirit of most arguments I hear from Trump supporters about why their guy is great: they're angry, they want to stick it to the GOP "establishment" (2), he'll make America "great" again (whatever that vague expression means), and they're angry. Point out the truth about Trump's record, how it clearly shows he's unfit to be president, and you're greeted with non sequiturs, irrelevancies, and anger.
Anger is not a winning voting strategy. Don't vote angry. Use your reason and vote for the best and only conservative left in the race.
(1) In fact, I think he was as Cruz supporter from the start, but don't quote me on that.
(2) A word that's been so widely and sloppily applied it almost lacks meaning these days.

I hope @JimGeraghty will forgive me, but you need to read this. #NeverTrump
Anyone but.
As penance, I suggest –nay, I implore you!– to subscribe to his Morning Jolt newsletter.
And it's from this morning's edition that I copiously excerpt the following, which anyone who seriously thinks Trump is a reasonable choice or that he has a chance of beating Hillary in November needs to read:
All the polling indicates Rubio would have crushed Hillary Clinton in a general election. Cruz looks like he's got a shot — not a great shot, but a shot. Donald Trump's general-election numbers are sinking like a stone. (If you can stand him, John Kasich matches up quite well.)
Trump's fans walk around with great confidence about his general election strengths for which there is no real evidence. They're convinced he will win over traditional blue-collar Democrats. So far, he doesn't. They're convinced he will win over African Americans. Polling in February puts his support among African Americans between 4 and 10 percent. (Romney won 6 percent.) They're convinced he'll win a lot more Latinos than everyone thinks. (He's currently at less than half Mitt Romney's level of support.) They're convinced he'll win Democratic states like New York, New Jersey, and Michigan. (He trails by 18 to 23 points in those states in the most recent polls.)
Trump fans gleefully point to his 7.5 million votes in the primary so far, and forget that the universe of voters in the general election will be on a completely different scale — probably 130 million voters. (Mitt Romney won 10 million primary votes.)
When you mention Trump's awful head-to-head polling with Hillary Clinton, you hear a lot of references to Ronald Reagan's trailing Jimmy Carter in March 1980. Ronald Reagan never had the unfavorable numbers Trump has now.
When everybody says, "Oh, the pundits and the elected officials and the other campaigns didn't see the GOP grassroots embrace of Trump coming . . ." well, yeah; the pundits and the elected officials and the other campaigns thought better of the GOP grassroots.
People who support Trump like to say that not backing him guarantees a Hillary Clinton presidency. To the contrary, nominating The Donald almost certainly guarantees a crushing Republican defeat.
But there is still time to derail the "Trump train."
Trump plays to fear, resentment, and anger. Instead of channeling it in a positive direction, he brings out the worst in people. He is a con artist who poisons everything he touches.
Ask yourselves, what evidence, what smidgen of a hint of proof, is there that Donald Trump would make a good president, or even a mediocre one? You think Trump will "hire good people" and take their advice? When has he in his colossal egotism ever shown that he listens to anyone but yes-men?
Electing Hillary Clinton would be a disaster, but choosing Donald Trump would be a catastrophe — first for conservatism, then for the nation if he's elected.
We have a good choice. Take a deep breath, let go of your anger, and make it.

Shein to open more distribution centers to meet U.S. demand
The Wall Street Journal 09/15/2022
Shein is planning to build three large distribution centers in the U.S. to help speed deliveries to customers in three to four days. The privately-held fast-fashion site currently ships orders from China to more than 150 countries where it operates. Shein opened its first distribution center in Whitestown, IN, earlier this year. | {

The Prince of Wales Trophy, also known as the Wales Trophy, is a team award presented by the National Hockey League (NHL). Named for Prince Edward, Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII and then Duke of Windsor), it has been awarded for different accomplishments throughout its history.
The trophy was first presented during the 1925–26 NHL season to the champion of the first game in Madison Square Garden on December 15, 1925. It was subsequently presented to the champion of the NHL playoffs (including the previous two seasons). The Wales Trophy was then awarded to the champion of the American Division (1927–1938) and later the NHL regular season champions (1938–1967). Since the 1967 NHL expansion, it has served as a counterpart to the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl by using the same criteria in the opposite competitive grouping. The Wales Trophy has been awarded to the East Division regular season champions (1967–1974), the Wales Conference regular season champions (1974–1981), the Wales Conference playoff champions (1981–1993), and the Eastern Conference playoff champions (1993–2020, 2021–present).
Due to a modified playoff format held in 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Wales Trophy was awarded to the Tampa Bay Lightning after defeating the New York Islanders in the Stanley Cup Semifinals.
History
The Prince of Wales Trophy was first announced in December 1925. It was sponsored by the then Prince of Wales, Prince Edward, and thus bore the Prince of Wales' feathers and the shield of the Royal Coat of Arms of Canada. Costing $2,500, the trophy was said to be in the possession of the league champion. It was originally awarded to the winner of the first game played in Madison Square Garden, held on December 15, 1925 (Montreal Canadiens 3 at New York Americans 1). The award was then held by the Canadiens until the end of the season. The Canadiens engraved their name on the trophy twice, for the 1924–25 season, and the preceding 1923–24 season, for which the team was league champions.
It was then awarded to the NHL playoff champion in 1925–26 and 1926–27, (along with the O'Brien Cup) before that team would go on to face the Western Hockey League (WHL) champion for the Stanley Cup at the end of those seasons. From the 1927–28 season on, the trophy was awarded to the champion of the American Division of the NHL, while the O'Brien Cup was presented to the Canadian Division champion, until 1938, when, after the NHL reverted to a single division, the Wales Trophy was made the award for the overall regular season champion.
With the expansion of the NHL in 1967, and the creation of the West Division, the Wales Trophy was given to the team that finished in first place in the East Division, during the regular season. When the league formed two conferences in 1974, the trophy transferred to the team that finished with the best regular season record in the Wales Conference, until 1981. The NHL changed its playoff format so that the two conference playoff champions would meet for the Stanley Cup. The Prince of Wales Trophy was presented to the Wales Conference playoff champions. In the summer of 1993 Wales Conference was renamed the Eastern Conference. Prince of Wales trophy has been awarded to the Eastern Conference playoff champions since the 1993–94 season.
A superstition that is prevalent among many of today's NHL players is that no player should either touch or hoist the Wales (Eastern Conference champion) or Clarence S. Campbell (Western Conference champion) Trophies after they have won the conference playoffs; these players feel that the Stanley Cup is the true championship trophy and thus it should be the only trophy that they should be hoisting. Instead of touching the conference trophy, the captain of the winning team merely poses (usually looking solemn) with the trophy, and sometimes, the entire team poses as well. However, there have been other teams who have ignored the superstition and hoisted the conference trophies, sometimes going on to win the Cup anyway. Most notably, the Pittsburgh Penguins who were considered the most successful team to touch the trophy, winning the Stanley Cup five times after touching it.
The NHL abolished the conferences and re-aligned the league into four new divisions for the 2020–21 NHL season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the semifinal round of the 2021 Stanley Cup playoffs was contested between the winners of the divisional playoffs and they were seeded according to their regular season record. Initially the trophy was not going to be awarded, but it was later decided that the trophy would be awarded to the winner of the Stanley Cup Semifinals series between the New York Islanders and the Tampa Bay Lightning.

The Seventh Victim is a movie that sort of walks a tightrope between multiple genres while being completely its own thing. It is a mixture of noir, horror, mystery and could mostly be considered a very dramatic thriller. It is also quite short at 71 minutes but it packs a solid punch despite its dainty running time. Tiny and meaty, it is like the filet mignon of early film-noir.
The cool twist of this picture, is that the story revolves around the existence of a Satanic cult in Manhattan. That's some pretty dark and mysterious stuff for a film from the early 1940s but the movie doesn't get quite as dark as you might hope, which is really the one thing that worked against it in my opinion. I was hoping for a sort of hybrid between early noir and something in the style of Universal's horror franchises, at the time. RKO still made a dark and interesting thriller, regardless.
In this film, we meet a young female student who comes to discover that her older sister has been missing. She sets off, leaving her education behind, in an effort to find her missing sister. As the film rolls on, we learn that the older sister has some sort of involvement with a cult that worships the Devil. She exhibits strange behavior and is actually suicidal and wants to die. After betraying her cult, the punishment is death. However, she doesn't want to die because someone else wills it, she wants to die when she is damned good and ready.
The Satanic sister is played by Jean Brooks and she puts in an enchanting performance. She is like a statuesque phantom in the night, exuding beauty and mystery. The younger sister, played by Kim Hunter, is a perfect contrast to the darkness and brings a bright beacon of light and hope into the story. Tom Conway is the top billed star but this film really stars the two sisters.
Ultimately, the picture is a bit disjointed and lacking the gravitas I had hoped it would have but it is interesting and entertaining. Plus, the performances of the two main actresses is really good. Additionally, few women have been able to exhibit a haunting allure in the way that Jean Brooks does in this picture. | {

Many are cannonballing right into the dark pools.
An entire generation has grown up during this streak of hot weather, which Philip Bump, who now writes for the Atlantic Wire, pointed out in the online environmental magazine Grist last year. The last time the global average of land and ocean temperatures was below long-term levels was in February 1985. The United Nations reported earlier in July that more countries have seen record-breaking temperatures in the first decade of this century than ever before. This month, northern Canada, northwestern Russia, southern Japan, the Philippines, southwestern China, and central-southern Africa all saw unprecedented temperatures for the month, according to NOAA.
Red indicates the warmest temperatures on record. Pink signifies temperatures "much warmer than average" and light pink means "warmer than average," according to NOAA.
The United Nations has warned that the average temperature could increase by 4 degrees celsius above pre-industrial levels by 2100, which some researchers say will wreak further havoc, causing extreme temperatures, lower crop yields, damage to ocean ecosystems and human health risks. | {

Imagine you buy your child a brand new bike for his birthday. He immediately hops right onto the bike and starts peddling down the street when it breaks and he falls to the street, breaking his arm. A few questions pop into your mind: Did the bike cause your child's injuries? Was there something wrong with the bike? How much are medical bills for his injury going to cost?
In these situations, you may be able to bring a claim under two main theories: negligence and product liability. In the instance of product liability, courts will focus on the nature of the product defect itself rather than the conduct of the manufacturer or designer. If you are hoping to file a products liability claim, you should hire an experienced local lawyer to help you understand the different types of defects and possibilities for recovery.
There are two primary types of defects in products liability cases: design defects and manufacturing defects. Design defects occur when there is an inherent and fundamental problem with the product's design. This means every product that comes through the pipeline has this same design defect, which is reflected in the product's design plan.
Manufacturing defects are defects that arise from a mistake in the manufacturing process. Unlike design defects, there should only be a relatively small percentage of products that contain the defect. An example of a manufacturing defect in a bike may occur if a batch of bikes did not have their pedals screwed on properly. The burden of proof and evidence needed to prevail on a products liability claim depends on the classification of the defect.
In the 2015 case of Aubin v. Union Carbide, the Florida Supreme Court set a precedent providing that Florida courts should employ the consumer expectation test when making determinations regarding design defects. The consumer expectation test outlines that courts should examine whether a product is unreasonably dangerous because it failed to perform as safely as a reasonable consumer would expect it to. The test requires that a plaintiff was using the product in its intended or reasonably foreseeable way. Compared to tests employed by courts in other jurisdictions, the burden on the plaintiff is lower as Florida Plantiffs/claimants are not required to prove a reasonable alternative design existed.
The test for proving a manufacturing defect is similar to that of a design defect in that the burden is on the plaintiff to prove the product had a manufacturing defect that rendered it unreasonably dangerous and that defect led directly to the plaintiff's injury. Additionally, the plaintiff must prove the product left the manufacturer's possession with the defect that caused it to be dangerous.
If you are injured from a hoverboard or other defective product in Boca Raton, Stuart or West Palm Beach, contact the experienced personal injury lawyers at Lesser, Lesser, Landy & Smith, PLLC to discuss your potential options for recovering from the product manufacturer, distributor, and/or retailer. | {

Habitats Directive (1992/43)
Title: Habitats Directive
Category: EU Directive
Reference: 92/43/EEC [Full text] (implemented in the UK by the Conservation (Natural Habitats etc.) Regulations: SI 1994/2716)
It has been estimated that there are around 3,300 plant species in the core 12 EU countries. Around 10% of these are thought to be under threat of survival. This Directive, which was been implemented in stages, aims to protect them by setting up special areas of conservation and special protection areas for endangered species of wild birds.
The directive requires member states to identify natural habitats and species of community interest, which may occur in their territories. States must maintain or achieve a 'favourable conservation status for these species and habitats through designation of protected 'Special Areas for Conservation' (SACs), and also through special measures to protect individual species. In the UK this has been / will be implemented through the maintenance and extension of the ~8% of land area covered by SSSIs (Sites of Special Scientific Interest). SSSIs were set up under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Particularly threatened species and habitats enjoy stronger protection; in the UK these include:
Yew woods
Active raised and blanket bogs
Dune heaths
Caledonian forests
Limestone pavements
Proposed SACs must be agreed with Brussels by 1998, and the final list designated by 2004. The SACs join the Special Protection areas (SPAs) designated under the 1979 Wildbirds Directive, in a new EU protected network referred to as Natura 2000.

A New Algorithm Will Soon Speed Up Your Internet Browser
When it comes to the Internet, there is a lot that the average user does not understand. The promise of a faster browsing experience, however, is self-explanatory. Google has announced that it will soon publish a new compression algorithm called Brotli, which promises to decrease the time it takes to load web pages.
Building off of the successes of its now 2-year-old Zopfli algorithm, Brotli—named after Brötli, the Swiss German word for 'small bread'—will incorporate a new data format that comes with a higher compression ratio (20 to 26 percent). In other words, the algorithm will squeeze down the content on web pages, making it less bulky and easier to download.
"The smaller compressed size allows for better space utilization and faster page loads," writes Software Engineer Zoltan Szabadka of Google's Compression Team. Szabadka adds that the smaller compression size would give "additional benefits to mobile users, such as lower data transfer fees and reduced battery use."
That faster browsing is on the way, Engadget reports, with the algorithm "likely to appear in the next version of Chrome." | {

This was probably my favorite track in Skrillex's Essential Mix. Together with Boys Noize, the pairing took one of the biggest tracks from last year and completely overhauled it while keeping the vocal lines intact. The remix is the type of record that sends any dance floor into a frenzy. Can't wait to hear this at Hard Summer. | {

Ape-Man
TIME to Stay Current on Human Origins
by Dr. David A. DeWitt on October 2, 2006
It seems like evolution is always in the news. Whether it is a new dinosaur skeleton, a new fossil hominid or alleged genetic links between different species, evolution is frequently in the media. As I write this, evolution and humans' alleged ape ancestry is on the cover of TIME—again!
This time the cover boasts, "How we became human." This is an interesting contrast to a TIME cover from July 23, 2001, which said "How Apes Became Human." In spite of the attention grabbing headline, neither issue actually explains how we (or apes) became human.
It seems like evolution is in the news now more than ever. In part, this is probably because of the strides that creationists have been making. More people than ever are becoming informed about the evidence that supports the creation account in Genesis and calls into question evolutionary theory. Perhaps because of that, there is even more of an effort to "educate" the public on the evidence for evolution.
If you stay informed on these issues from a creation standpoint, they can provide excellent talking points with friends and relatives. These can serve as conversation starters that can open the door to sharing about your belief in creation and your relationship with Christ.
As a case in point, many of the evidences that were used in this TIME article1 have been discussed in a series of articles that are already on the Answers in Genesis website. These articles provide additional information about the topic and reveal the evolutionary assumptions that are involved in analyzing the data.
Similarity does not provide evidence of a common ancestor—it only provides evidence that the two organisms are similar.
For example, the TIME article begins by discussing how similar humans and the great apes are. However, similarity does not provide evidence of a common ancestor—it only provides evidence that the two organisms are similar. Common ancestry is assumed. To reinforce the claim, TIME says that humans and chimps have 98–99% identical DNA. This is in part based on the completed draft sequence of the chimpanzee genome.
However, this is misleading because it ignores many important differences. These differences were discussed in "Chimp Genome Sequence Very Different from Man." Although chimpanzees have 24 pairs of chromosomes and humans have 23, there are many significant differences. In fact, when the chimpanzee sequence was reported in Nature, they said that the percent similarity was 96%. Although 1.23% of the differences were single DNA base pair changes, more than twice that number were extra DNA bases that were found either in chimpanzees or humans. TIME conveniently left the percentages of the extra DNA out so that they could keep the difference at 98–99% based on only the single base pair changes. The use of a percentage also obscures the fact that it is at least roughly 125 million DNA base pairs that are different between the two species. To put the number into perspective, I am currently finishing writing a book. With 190 pages there are only ~300,000 letters in the book. It would take 400 such books just to equal the differences between chimps and humans.
Another misleading claim in the article is about FOXP2, a protein that appears to play a role in language. This protein has been shown to be required for normal development of neurons that are involved in controlling the process of vocalization. TIME reports:
By comparing the protein coded by the human FOXP2 gene with the same protein in various great apes and in mice, they discovered that the amino-acid sequence that makes up the human variant differs from that of the chimp in just two locations out of a total of 715—an extraordinarily small change that may nevertheless explain the emergence of all aspects of human speech, from a baby's first words to a Robin Williams monologue.
Thus it would seem that if those two differences were changed in chimpanzees, we would be able to have a nice conversation with them. But even one of the authors of the original work on FOXP2 has been careful to say that this should not be considered "the language gene." Nonetheless, this is how it is portrayed by TIME. In "FOXP2 and the Non-Evolution of Human Language" I cut through some of the media hype to put the results into perspective. Also not mentioned in the TIME article is the fact that the FOXP2 protein has only one difference between chimpanzees and mice.
Yet another misleading evidence in the TIME article is the idea that a mutation in a jaw muscle protein allowed the brain to increase in size. The mutation causes bundles of muscle fibers to be smaller and indeed humans have smaller relative jaw muscles than the apes. This shrinking of the jaw muscle is supposed to have provided the space for the brain to increase. The claim has been somewhat in dispute among evolutionists.
In an article in TJ, "Did a Jaw Muscle Protein Mutation Lead to Increased Cranial Capacity in Man?" numerous problems with this hypothesis were discussed, not the least of which is that the brain size is not limited by the skull but instead it is the size of the brain that makes a difference in the skull.2 This is demonstrated by microcephaly, where a mutation in a brain protein causes the brain to be abnormally small, and the skull shrinks accordingly. Also, with hydrocephalus, brain volume is abnormally increased and the skull can be correspondingly larger.
TIME magazine also mentioned the exotic claim that chimpanzees and humans may have interbred. Under the heading "Sex with chimps?" TIME discusses the controversial claim that humans and chimpanzees split and then later interbred for a time. This example was critiqued in "Chimp-Human Hybridization: Two of a Kind or Two Different Kinds?"
On the fossil hominid front, the article mentions Sahelanthropus and Ardipithicus. Sahelanthropus is supposed to be the oldest human ancestor, dated at 6–7 million years. One of the problems with this fossil is that even other evolutionists consider it to be a type of ape. In "The Toumaï Skull: Ape or Human Ancestor?" Marvin Lubenow discussed the problems in identifying this specimen as a human ancestor. Several other articles have discussed the claims, including the fact that the features that are supposed to make the specimen more human-like are sexually dimorphic in apes. Thus, it appears to be similar to a female gorilla.
Ardipithicus ramidus kadabba was featured on the cover of the July 23, 2001, issue of TIME. Inside was a picture of a fossil toe with the caption, "This toe bone proves that the creature walked on two legs." The evidence in favor of this is the joint surface. However, the bone is long and curved like that of a chimpanzee. This has led David Begun of the University of Toronto to say, "To me, it looks for all the world like a chimpanzee foot phalanx [toe bone]."3
The article also discusses the Neandertals. Currently, scientists are working very hard to try to obtain the DNA sequence of the entire Neandertal genome. I am very eager to see this data, as I expect it to vindicate the human status of Neandertals. Neandertals played musical instruments, used jewelry and buried their dead with ceremonies—decisively human characteristics. Numerous articles on Neandertals are available on the Answers in Genesis website. There is also the video Did Neanderthals and Modern Humans Share a Recent Common Gene Pool? from the 2003 creation conference.
Noticeably absent from the TIME magazine article was mention of Lucy, the famous australopithecine. Just over a week ago, a new specimen of Lucy's kind was making headlines. This mostly complete, well-preserved fossil was that of a ~3-year-old and has been named Selam. However, essentially all of the new features that were discerned from this specimen aligned it more closely with apes and chimpanzees. "Lucy and Her 'Child' Look Like Extinct Apes After All" discussed the significance of this find to creationists. Perhaps the reason that Selam was not mentioned in the TIME article is precisely because it now shows how ape-like the australopithecines were.
As you can see, with evolution-refuting resources available on the internet, it is no wonder that evolutionists are frantic to push evolution through the mainstream media. There is a battle going on and it is over the hearts and minds of people. One side is pushing the idea that humans are just animals—the product of millions of years of random mutations. The other side affirms what the Bible holds—that man was uniquely created in the image of God.

U.S. Department of Commerce Invests $400,000 in CARES Act Funding to Boost Economic Development Programs Critical to Helping 3-County Oregon Region Respond to Coronavirus
WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration (EDA) is awarding a $400,000 CARES Act Recovery Assistance grant to the CCD Business Development Corporation, Roseburg, Oregon, to update economic development plans and fortify programs to assist communities in responding to the coronavirus pandemic.
"The Trump Administration is eager to allocate these essential CARES Act funds and deliver on our promise to help American communities recover from the impact of COVID-19," said Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross. "I am proud of the perseverance and strength shown by our communities coast to coast throughout this pandemic, and these funds will help provide Oregon with the necessary resources to make a swift and lasting economic comeback."
"This investment comes at a crucial time to help Oregon's and our nation's economy come roaring back and provide hard-working Americans with new opportunities," said Dana Gartzke, Performing the Delegated Duties of the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development. "We are pleased to make this investment in the CCD Business Development Corporation to respond to the coronavirus pandemic by providing technical assistance to small businesses in the region and developing a disaster recovery and resiliency economic development plan focused on pandemic recovery and resiliency."
CCD Business Development Corporation, an EDA-designated Economic Development District (EDD), is one of the more than 850 existing, high-performing EDA EDD, University Center, Tribal, and Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) grant recipients invited to apply for supplemental funding under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. | {

Q: Using Interfaces in Kohana 3.1.3 I'm trying to build a form wizard in Kohana and am learning a bit as I go. One of the things that I've learn might work best is utilizing a state pattern in my class structure to manage the different steps a user can be in during the form process.
After doing some research, I've been thinking that the best approach may be to use an interface and have all of the steps act as states that implement the interface. After a state validates, it will change a session variable to the next step, which can be read upon the initial load of the interface and call the correct state to use.
Does this approach make sense? If so, how the heck do I make it happen (how do I best structure the filesystem?)
Here is the rough start I've been working on:
<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');
/**
* Project_Builder @state
* Step_One @state
* Step_Two @state
**/
interface Project_Builder
{
public function do_this_first();
public function validate();
public function do_this_after();
}
class Step_One implements Project_Builder {
public function __construct
{
parent::__construct();
// Do validation and set a partial variable if valid
}
public function do_this_first()
{
echo 'First thing done';
// This should be used to set the session step variable, validate and add project data, and return the new view body.
$session->set('step', '2');
}
public function do_this_after()
{
throw new LogicException('Have to do the other thing first!');
}
}
class Step_Two implements Project_Builder {
public function do_this_first()
{
throw new LogicException('Already did this first!');
}
public function do_this_after()
{
echo 'Did this after the first!';
return $this;
}
}
class Project implements Project_Builder {
protected $state;
protected $user_step;
protected $project_data
public function __construct()
{
// Check the SESSION for a "step" entry. If it does not find one, it creates it, and sets it to "1".
$session = Session::instance('database');
if ( ! $session->get('step'))
{
$session->set('step', '1');
}
// Get the step that was requested by the client.
$this->user_step = $this->request->param('param1');
// Validate that the step is authorized by the session.
if ($session->get('step') !== $this->user_step)
{
throw new HTTP_Exception_404('You cannot skip a step!');
}
// Check if there is user data posted, and if so, clean it.
if (HTTP_Request::POST == $this->request->method())
{
foreach ($this->request->post() as $name => $value)
{
$this->project_data["$name"] = HTML::chars($value);
}
}
// Trigger the proper state to use based on the authorized session step (should I do this?)
$this->state = new Step_One;
}
public function doThisFirst()
{
$this->state = $this->state->do_this_first();
}
public function doThisAfter()
{
$this->state = $this->state->do_this_after();
}
}
$project = new Project;
try
{
$project->do_this_after(); //throws exception
}
catch(LogicException $e)
{
echo $e->getMessage();
}
$project = new Project;
$project->do_this_first();
$project->validate();
$project->do_this_after();
//$project->update();
A: Your way certainly looks possible, however I would be tempted to keep it simpler and use some of Kohanas build in features to take care of what you want. For example, I would use Kostache (mustache) and have separate View classes (and potentially templates) for each step. Then the controller becomes quite simple. See the example below (missing session stuff and validation of the step_number). All of the validation is handled in the model. If there is a validation error, an exception can be thrown which can then pass error messages back to the View.
<?php
class Wizard_Controller {
function action_step($step_number = 1)
{
$view = new View_Step('step_' + $step_number);
if ($_POST)
{
try
{
$model = new Model_Steps;
$model->step_number = $step_number;
if ($model->save($_POST))
{
// Go to the next step
$step_number++;
Request::current()->redirect('wizard/step/'.$step_number);
}
}
catch (Some_Kind_Of_Exception $e)
{
$view->post = $_POST;
$view->errors = $e->errors();
}
}
$view->render();
}
}
?>
Hope this makes sense.

Kashmiri Doctor Leads UK Team To Develop Accurate Test To Diagnose Prostate Cancer
Scientists have announced the development of a highly accurate and reliable technique for diagnosing prostate cancer. The Dundee University-based team say they have used an ultrasound process called shear wave elastography (SWE) to detect prostate tumours. The method is non-invasive and cheaper than current detection techniques.
Prostate cancer has become the most common cancer in men in the UK. One in eight men will develop the condition at some point in their lives with more than 47,000 new cases being diagnosed every year. Men aged 50 or over, men with a family history of prostate cancer, and black men are at greatest risk of developing the condition.
"Current diagnosis of prostate cancer is extremely inefficient, leading to unnecessary treatments for many patients," said the Dundee University team's leader, Professor Ghulam Nabi. "Our new method is far more accurate and also allows us to identify the difference between cancerous and benign tissue in the prostate without the need for invasive surgery."
The prostate is a small gland in the male reproductive system and is normally about the shape and size of a walnut. Current methods for determining if a prostate has become cancerous include a physical examination of the prostate (known as a digital rectal examination or DRE), MRI scans, a biopsy or tests to determine levels of the chemical prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the blood.
Each carries problems. PSA results can be unreliable; a DRE is not good at identifying which cancers are benign and which need treatment; MRI scans cannot always give a definitive answer; while a biopsy carries a risk of infection and is expensive.
The new method aims to get round the problems by targeting the prostate with ultrasound. Cancerous tissue is stiffer than normal tissue so shear waves are slowed as they pass through a tumour.
"We have been able to show a stark difference in results between our technology and existing techniques such as MRI," added Nabi. "The technique has picked up cancers which MRI did not reveal. We can now see with much greater accuracy what tissue is cancerous, where it is and what level of treatment it needs. This is a significant step forward."
The trial tests involved around 200 patients. "Now we need to use this on a wider scale to build more data but there is clearly the potential to really change the way we manage prostate cancer," Nabi said.
SWE technology is already used in diagnosing breast cancer and liver diseases. However, to make it applicable to prostate cancer a special probe had to be developed by the team.
"The technique now needs to be tested in a much larger number of men to confirm just how well it can detect the aggressive cancers, while also ruling out those who do not have prostate cancer," said Simon Grieveson, head of research funding at Prostate Cancer UK, which funded the Dundee project (with support from the Movember Foundation).
"With an average of one man dying every 45 minutes from prostate cancer in the UK, the need for a more reliable test that can identify dangerous forms of the disease earlier is greater than ever."

Sip wine while you paint a masterpiece!
Kimberly Godinho is the proud founder, owner and operator of The Painted Cork Art Studios! Kimberly founded and opened The Painted Cork Art Studio at 801 Sutter St in Historic "Old Town" Folsom in December of 2010. In June 2013 she opened The Painted Cork's second location at 1624 J Street in Midtown Sacramento and in the Fall of 2017, The Painted Cork's 3rd location was opened in at 1129 Soquel Ave in Eastside Santa Cruz!!
In 2016 the original Painted Cork art studio in Historic "Old Town" Folsom moved to the Street level address of 726 Sutter St and now contains a 21 and up studio as well as a separate alcohol free "Family Room" studio. Kimberly has painted the entire swirled interior of all 3 studio locations along with a 30 foot exterior mural on the building of the Sacramento location.
Kimberly Godinho is local California artist and an accomplished art instructor with a Bachelor Degree in Fine Art which she obtained with honors from Ringling School of Art and Design in 1999. She has also won numerous grants and scholarships while attending RSAD including the New York Studio Residency Program where she got to live and work in NYC as a professional artist during her Junior year. Kimberly is skilled in the art of oil painting, acrylic painting, watercolor painting, pastel, colored pencil, stone carving, wood and plaster sculpture, and printmaking. She has sold her artwork and had showings of her work across the country including the states of CA, NJ, PE, NY, FL and MD. She's also accomplished dozens of commissioned pieces as a portrait artist, muralist and children's book illustrator and has been teaching art to children and adults for almost 25 years. Her favorite class to teach is the Paint Your Pet class which she developed in 2011 and she currently still teaches this class today at the Santa Cruz location.
The Painted Cork "paint and sip" Art Studio is a comfortable, fun and hip Art Studio with an exciting social flair. Guests get their creative juices flowing as a professional Art instructor guides them through a 2 to 3 hour acrylic on canvas painting class while they enjoy their favorite wine, beer or non-alcoholic beverage and snacks. All Art supplies are included with the class such as brushes, paints, canvases, easels and aprons, and every class is taught step by step so there is NO EXPERIENCE necessary!
We also have a "FAMILY ROOM" studio in our Folsom and Santa Cruz locations for the Kiddos and family events! This studio is non-alcoholic and for ages 7 and up.
Get ready to channel your inner Picasso!
One of our professional Artists will instruct the entire class through step by step painting instruction and show them how to paint the selected painting of the day or night. There are no rules on how our guests would like to paint their masterpiece! Let your creativity run wild! Change color, add elements or even change the entire painting if you like! We take breaks throughout the class so that the guests can have some social time with their friends, food, wine and music. The classes range from 2-4 hours long with a price range of $35-$50 a class, depending on the painting at hand.
When you arrive to your class 20-30 minutes early, you will then check in at our administrative assistant desk where we will ask for your name and ID to check you in. You can then pick out your seat and get comfortable! We try to reserve seats for parties of 6 or more ahead of time so please let us know when you register for the class by adding into the "comment's box" that you are a large group and exactly how many guests will be in your party. Please call the studio ahead of time to make sure your guests are all signed up. Once you are comfortable, feel free to pop open your wine or drinks or get out your snacks to enjoy throughout the class. Our food and wine options are a perk and not mandatory! You may share your treats or keep them to yourself! We have tall TV style trays at each table and three designated 8 foot "food tables". We also supply complimentary paper plates, cups, napkins, plastic cutlery, plastic wine glasses, bottle openers and a refrigerator for your use. Sit back and relax while the artist gets you your paint and gets ready to start the class.
Upon taking your seat, you will notice that we have taken the time and effort to draw a preliminary sketch onto your canvas prior to the class. This drawing is what many artists use to place elements appropriately into the canvas prior to the painting process so that they don't have to aimlessly draw with their paint brush. We take the time to add this drawing to our process because our classes are more about the painting process of mixing colors, blending techniques and brush strokes and not a drawing class. We have our professional artists come in 2 hours prior to every class so to ensure the drawings can be done in time and to help build your painting for success. If you do not want the drawing, you are more than welcome to request a blank canvas!! Our artist will begin the class by going over what to expect from the process and then begin to show the class a step by step process of building the painting. We do take breaks during the classes to allow paint to dry and give our guests a chance to step away from their paintings and fill their cups. We play music throughout our classes and we do take requests! When the painting process is complete, our artist will show you how to sign your masterpiece and you are finished! The acrylic paint dries very quickly and within minutes, your painting will be dry and ready to take home.
The Painted Cork has three locations, one in the heart of Historic Folsom on Sutter St, the second is in Midtown Sacramento and the third location is now open in the Eastside "Midtown" area of Santa Cruz! All three studios are conveniently located near fantastic restaurants, bars, boutiques, coffee shops etc. So when your class is over feel free to continue the fun in Historic Folsom, Midtown Sacramento or Eastide "Midtown" Santa Cruz!!
What makes The Painted Cork the best paint and sip experience in the area?
The Painted Cork has 2 fantastic and brightly painted studios, one in the heart of the Historic shopping district of Folsom and the other in fabulous Midtown Sacramento. Both locations are surrounded by shops, amazing restaurants and nightlife. Perfect locations to continue your event out on the town after your paint and sip experience.
Both of our studios are fully licensed to allow our guests to bring in their favorite wines and beers to enjoy throughout the classes! This allows our guests to bring in their own flavors without paying for overpriced bar drinks. We also allow food in our studios and our guests commonly bring in food from our fabulous surrounding restaurants or they like to pack picnic baskets full of their favorite treats to bring and enjoy throughout the classes. We also supply paper plates, cups, napkins, plastic cutlery, plastic wine glasses, bottle openers, designated food tables and a full refrigerator for your use. All of these items are complimentary and there are no other hidden fees such as cork fees.
Lastly and most importantly, there are three undeniable elements that make us a favorite among our guests…Experience, Education and Passion. ALL of the talented artists who teach at The Painted Cork including the owner are all practicing fine artists with tons of education and a passion for creating art and teaching you how to create your paintings. We also train each artist how to paint each and every painting prior to the classes so that they are comfortable with the paintings and you as the guest get the best instruction possible. The Painted Cork owner Kimberly has been painting for 35 years and has been teaching for almost 20. Her biggest joy is seeing the finished pieces of the guests who didn't know that they could paint!
Is The Painted Cork affiliated with any other paint and sip venues in Folsom or Sacramento?
No – For the last 6 years that we have been in business, there have been many paint and sip venues that have popped up locally and a couple who have chosen names that are very similar to The Painted Cork, but we only have one studio in Folsom and one studio in Sacramento. We are "The Painted Cork" and we go by no other name.
Aprons are supplied before the class begins, however it is a good idea to wear something that you wouldn't mind getting some paint on. Please remember that The Painted Cork is a "painting" studio and paint can end up anywhere! Feel free to bring a smock of your own or different shirt to change into if your continuing your night out on the town. Please note that The Painted Cork is not responsible for paint getting on personal items.
Yes! Because seating is limited and we often sell out, it is recommended that you sign up in advance in order to reserve your seat. You can register and pay online by clicking onto the "Calendar" tab from our website. From the visual calendar you can click onto the class which will bring you to the registration form (scroll down…located under painting) or giving us a call at 916-442-2675.
EARLY is great! We highly recommend coming into the studio 25-30 minutes before the class since we try to start painting at the designated time AND seating is first come first serve! This also allows you some extra social time and allows you to get comfortable before the class.
Of course! Feel free to bring in any snacks you wish or purchase some appetizers from the many restaurants in Historic Folsom or Midtown Sacramento to bring with you. We can also recommend and coordinate local catering for private parties!
What are the prices of a class and what does it include?
The classes range from only $35 for a 2 hour class, $45 for a 3 hour class and $50 for a 4 hour class. See the calendar which has all times and prices listed for each class. The price includes a 2-4 hour class with professional instruction, all supplies (aprons, brushes, easels, canvases, palettes and paint), complete set up and clean up…Oh, and a masterpiece created by you :)…Also we are BYOB and we allow you to bring in any beer, wine, beverages and your own snacks which makes the experience even more affordable!
Can I tip the Artist for doing a great job?
What kind of alcoholic beverages can I bring?
You may bring any wine, wine based products, beer or non-alcoholic beverages. Sorry, but our licensing does not cover hard alcohol.
If you are attending a class in our Historic Folsom location, there is a parking garage which is highly recommended, one block away on the corner of Reading Ave and Leidsdorf St. There is no time restraints or cost for this structure. You can also park off street and in the many lots surrounding the studio, but check for 2 and 3 hour timed parking. In Sacramento there is plenty of off street parking that surrounds the studio, there is also a lot on J and 16th (in front of Mikunis) and there is a lot on J Street just past 17th. Our neighbor owns the lot that our studio sits in and have been known to tow vehicles, so we do not recommend parking there.
Do I have to be 21 to join a class?
Our FOLSOM studio has 2 studios in one location at 726 Sutter St. One of these studios is for ages 21 and up only and is licensed and zoned for the consumption of alcohol so that guests can bring in their own wine and beer to enjoy throughout the class. The second studio at this location is called our "Family Room Studio" and is a non-alcoholic and family friendly studio. Kids, teens and adults are welcome to take classes in this studio and can bring any non-alcoholic beverages and food to enjoy throughout the class. Our Family Room and 21 and up classes are color coded on our Folsom calendar. Please be sure that you are signing up for the appropriate studio. Our SACRAMENTO studio has only one studio and is strictly a "21 and up" facility due to the licensing that we needed to obtain in order to allow our guests to bring wine or beer into our studio. This license does not allow us to have minors in our classes in the SACRAMENTO studio. This is a California state law, and it is not our law.
No! PayPal is our credit card carrier, however, you do not need a PayPal account to use your card. When paying for a class PayPal will ask you if you have an account. For those who are not familiar with PayPal, it is one of the top secure payment companies.
I don't drink...can I still attend a class?
I can't even draw a stick figure! Are you sure I can do this?
OF COURSE! You need NO experience or art background necessary to attend. Every step is taught by an educated and talented art instructor with many breaks throughout the class. You can follow along with the instructor or branch off from the instruction and create your own individualized masterpiece! Our intention is to take the fear out of painting through guided and simple steps. Painting is fun and that's exactly what the point of these classes are.
Does The Painted Cork provide alcohol?
We do not provide alcohol, however you may bring in your favorite bottle of wine or beer to enjoy throughout the class! We are a BYOB Art Studio! You may also bring any non-alcoholic beverages and snacks of your choice.
What do I do if I'm late to a class?
Is there a refrigerator available to keep beverages cold?
YES! Both of our studios in Historic Folsom and Midtown Sacramento have a medium standard fridge for our guests to use. We do have a freezer for your use in both, but unfortunately we do not have an ice machine.
We provide plastic cups and plastic wine glasses, however if you wish, you may also bring in your own glassware! We also supply complimentary paper plates, napkins, bottle openers, designated food tables and a refrigerator for your use.
Can I reschedule if I don't show up to the class?
Is there a place that we can purchase wine in Historic Folsom or near the Sacramento studio?
YES! We recommend "Unwined" at 915 Sutter St and "The Cellar" at 727 Sutter St right down the street from us in Historic Folsom. If you are coming to our Sacramento studio, BEVMO is two doors down from us! Talk about convenient!
My friends are in a class. Can I hang out with them and not paint?
Unfortunately no. We have allowed guests to hang out in the past and we have come to realize that this can be a disturbance to the other guests in the class. Sorry, if you come to the class, you will be expected to pay for your seat. If we are sold out, there unfortunately won't be a seat left to sit in anyway.
Is there a wine opener on the premises and is there a cork fee?
What's The Painted Cork's policy on Lost and Found?
Can I leave my painting at the studio to pick up later?
No. Unfortunately The Painted Cork is not responsible for any paintings left behind. We paint with acrylic paints in our classes and the paintings should be dry in approximately 10 minutes and capable of transport. | {

This week we are in Cameroon, in the capital.
So welcome, all participants to Yaoundé.
Briefly, in this video we'll discuss what is urban sprawl.
as a form of urban dysfunction.
It is when the city outgrows its own administrative borders.
should establish the limits beyond which it is no longer possible to build.
in all the gaps and spaces, even those most dangerous.
is that it destroys natural resources.
for land virgin of all urbanization.
in places were one simply should not build.
which are zones where one absolutely should not build.
a certain type of forest where there are protected species.
it poses problems in terms of infrastructure.
the more difficult it is to set up the necessary networks.
or the greater the number of pipes or networks per capita.
that it does not allow us to service and sustain the entire area.
the fewer the networks available for all these surfaces.
but its exactly the same with transportation systems.
or the farther I must go to bring them to the center.
is exactly and strictly the same.
So what are the causes of this urban sprawl?
a legal case which, ultimately, doesn't exist, for it is allowed.
And if it exists, it is not applied.
It's not enough to just say, "This is the regulation, this is the law."
that what is put in the law is truly applied on the ground.
with or without the law's approval.
which are, in principle, extremely outdated.
These are rarely updated, and even when they are, they are rarely utilized.
and how to overcome these limits, in the videos which follow.
and the perimeter beyond which one cannot.
is clearly that demand exceeds supply.
This is why people will go farther and farther out.
but in principle as a function of supply and demand.
because the prices, in the center of the city, are beyond my reach.
Because of this people go farther and farther out.
and the farther away the poorest must go to find affordable land.
This is one of the phenomena, one of the causes of urban sprawl.
let's look at how we might reduce its effects.
yet operational, and one must provide it with means of control.
because of sandstorms, or on dunes which can shift.
it must clearly be able to control this framework.
this is authorized, this is prohibited.
There must be a series of measures which accompany this.
if one does not propose aids in supply, and demand, when it comes to housing.
and at the same time on public policy, most notably housing and development.
urban sprawl will continue now, and forever. | {

Hit Series 'Yellowstone,' Popular Among Conservatives, Set to Shockingly End: Report
This Is the Screen Hawaii Officials Said Was Used to Set Off the Fake Ballistic Missile Alert
By Joe Setyon January 17, 2018 at 12:11pm
Several days after people in Hawaii scrambled to find safety when a false alert warned them that a ballistic missile was heading straight for the island, state officials have revealed more details regarding how the error was made.
In some respects, however, it appears that officials are having a hard time keeping their story straight.
First, officials said someone had pushed the "wrong button," but in reality, an employee of the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency chose the wrong option from a drop-down menu on a computer program, according to The Washington Post.
On Monday, the office of Hawaii governor David Ige shared with the Honolulu Civil Beat what was supposedly the screen that set off the missile alert.
This is the screen that set off the ballistic missile alert on Saturday. The operator clicked the PACOM (CDW) State Only link. The drill link is the one that was supposed to be clicked. #Hawaii pic.twitter.com/lDVnqUmyHa

The employee responsible for the error apparently clicked on the "PACOM (CDW) – State Only" link rather than the "drill" link, thus triggering the false warning.
Moreover, the "BMD False Alarm" link at the top of the screenshot had been added later on to ensure that similar incidents like this don't happen again.
But after that image was released, many on Twitter criticized HEMA for the set-up of an interface that has the potential to affect so many people.
This is not the kind of interface you would expect to see for something this important. https://t.co/0mUWXt33OG

Should Hawaii state officials lose their jobs for how they responded to the false missile alert?
Yes: 100% (4 Votes)
I was pretty sure terrible UI/UX was the cause of that missile alert, but sweet beard of zeus, it's so much more terrible than I had imagined. https://t.co/19Mz2pIcli
— Josh Pigford (@Shpigford) January 16, 2018
OMFG. This appears to be the interface that was at fault for the ballistic missile alarm on Hawaii. It is way way worse than I possibly could have conjured up in my wildest dreams.https://t.co/4zErizigPZ
— Per Axbom (@axbom) January 16, 2018
It didn't take long for officials in Hawaii to backtrack and say that the picture provided was more of an example, rather than an identical image of what the employee would have seen on the screen.
According to HEMA, providing an actual screenshot would make the system vulnerable to hackers, the Civil Beat reported.
A representative from the governor's office, though, said that when they released the image, they did not know at the time it was not a real screenshot.

"We asked (Hawaii Emergency Management Agency) for a screenshot and that's what they gave us," Ige spokeswoman Jodi Leong said Tuesday. "At no time did anybody tell me it wasn't a screenshot."
Leong received the image in a text from HEMA Administrator Vern Miyagi, then shared it with the media.
But HEMA public information officer Richard Rapoza said he was not aware Miyagi was going to provide the governor's office with the image.
"It was not handled officially through our office," Rapoza said. "That's on us. That's on our office, that an error was made in the way we handled the governor's request."
"The governor's office wanted to know what did this look like and it should have been more fully explained to them. I personally apologize," he added.
HEMA also released a new image, which they said was more similar to what the employee would have seen.
"This is a close facsimile. The operator should have selected the 'DRILL-PACOM (DEMO)' option, but instead clicked on the 'PACOM (CDW)' option," Rapoza told Hawaii News Now.
Here's what @Hawaii_EMA now says is a closer representation of what its emergency alert computer system looks like. (Although they say they won't provide an actual screen shot for security reasons.) pic.twitter.com/ZtGNhNlWrJ
— Nick Grube (@nickgrube) January 17, 2018
HEMA has also suggested that the employee responsible for the error would have had one final chance to correct his mistake.
A screen would have come up asking, "Are you sure you want to do this?" according to Miyagi. But the employee confirmed he wanted to send out the alert, thus sparking panic throughout the island.
"BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND TO HAWAII. SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL," read the resulting alert that residents and tourists received on their phones.
On TV screens, people were warned to find shelter indoors and remain away from windows.
It took 38 minutes after the warning first went out for the error to be rectified by an additional text message alert, though HEMA soon clarified on Twitter that there was "no missile threat."
Following the false alert, Ige pledged that something similar "won't happen again." He also apologized for the incident.
The worker who initiated the drill will not be fired, but instead will be temporarily reassigned.

Jun 3rd, 2021
This time last year, protests broke out across the world with people outraged by the injustice and violence that led to the deaths of George Floyd and far too many other Black lives.
The renewed focus on racial justice presented Starlight Children's Foundation with the opportunity to reflect on our organizational efforts in support of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We recognized we could do more and committed to the following:
Work with our hospital partners to identify how we could better design and distribute our programs to underserved and vulnerable communities
Prioritize our efforts to serve more Black and underserved families with seriously ill kids.
Look internally at how we could be more inclusive and diverse.
Last year, Starlight launched Commitment for Change—an equity, diversity, and inclusion initiative to deliver Starlight programs to more medically underserved and vulnerable populations.
We've made strides in the last year to better understand the patient population of hospital partners and help direct programs to those facilities with a large percentage of patients living in poverty.
We've also started prioritizing hospital partners with small child life teams and smaller budgets by granting them early access to Starlight programs with limited quantities.
In 2020...
47.2% of the patient population positively impacted by Starlight programs identify as non-white
62% of the medical facilities receiving Starlight programs are serving high poverty populations
38.2% of the patients Starlight serves benefit from Medicare/Medicaid services
This year, we will continue to expand our reach by increasing efforts to engage hospital partners serving pediatric patients in medically underserved and vulnerable areas.
We are also working with our corporate partnerships team to support new opportunities that will allow our Starlight Deliveries program to feature more inclusive items like dolls and toys in various ethnicities and foreign language books and activity kits.
Internally, we created a staff committee to discuss topics focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion. The group offers a comfortable environment for team members to come together and review a specific topic and provide ideas on how Starlight can be more inclusive and diverse in our external communications.
Starlight has diversified our Board and staff by gender and ethnicity and changed our recruiting process to ensure it is equitable across applicants and colleagues.
But there's still more we can do as an organization.
This is our commitment to you, our Starlight family, that we will continue to strive for equal access to our programs and ensure diversity at all levels of our organization.

The internet goes crazy when Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber pose for their first photo together. Justin Bieber's new desktop picture
Selena Gomez's ex-husband, musician Justin Bieber, and Hailey Bieber posed for a couple cute pictures together at the 2022 Academy Museum Gala only a few weeks after Hailey Bieber talked about the criticism she received when she started dating him. The annual celebration took place in Los Angeles on October 15. Continue reading about Justin Bieber's recovery following the diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt syndrome from Hailey Bieber.
At the star-studded event on Sunday, photographer Tyrell Hampton published a photo of Selena Gomez and Hailey together, writing in the Instagram caption, "Plot twist." The singer and the model seemed at ease with one another. In the photo, Selena can be seen placing her hand on Hailey's leg. In further pictures posted on numerous paparazzi and fan pages on social media, Hailey and Selena could be seen cuddling and grinning for the camera. Selena was wearing a black suit, while Hailey was dressed in brown.
In response to Tyrell's sharing of their photo, an Instagram user commented, "World peace has been found." Others commented in the manner, "This post will go down in history," etc. The internet is about to crash, read another comment. It was referred to be Justin Bieber's new wallpaper. Selena recently made a veiled protest against Hailey Bieber's criticism and abuse because of the timing of her relationship with Justin.
Shortly after Hailey revealed her past experience during an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, Selena reportedly made a video on TikTok pleading with people not to spread hate in her name. "Some of the things I don't even need to know about are just filthy and disgusting, in my opinion… And it's unfair because nobody should ever be addressed in the way that I've witnessed, Selena said in a video message to her fans, according to People.
Even while it could have seemed that Hailey's relationship with Justin and Selena's had some similarities, Hailey revealed in the podcast that Justin was single when their romance started. Hailey reportedly said, "I can say, period, point blank, I was never with him when he was in a relationship with anybody — that's the end of it," according to a report in People. She went on to say, "The misconception that "Oh, you stole him" is what causes the repetition. It results from their desire for him to have married someone else, and that's okay. Despite your best efforts, it is simply not the case. Why can't you, if we can, go on?"
A year after getting married in a US court, Hailey and Justin exchanged vows in an extravagant wedding ceremony in 2019 at a chic South Carolina hotel. For several years, Selena and Justin had an on-again, off-again relationship. After their breakup, the two apparently didn't speak for a year. Following The Weeknd's separation with model Bella Hadid, Selena dated him for a short while. According to reports, the couple split in 2017. Andrea Lervolino, an Italian film producer, is said to be Selena's boyfriend.

You'll have to go to the link to read #5 - it's the most important.
I like to give it a bit of the ol' "How's your Father? to start the day of chipper.
By the time I roll out of bed, the coffee has already brewed and retains the right temperature in the pot. That is what makes me happy. All that other stuff I *might* give lip service to at bedtime typically around 3am.
Hmmmm. How about pulling the covers over your head and trying to go back to sleep?

This is a strategy that I am quite familiar with. | {

A Casa Vitorino Nemésio localiza-se na freguesia de Santa Cruz, concelho da Praia da Vitória, na ilha Terceira, nos Açores.
A casa de Vitorino Nemésio é um edifício histórico do século XVII, situado na rua de São Paulo (Antiga rua da Cadeia), onde o escritor nasceu em 19 de Dezembro de 1901.
Durante o século XIX o imóvel sofreu diversas intervenções de manutenção e restauro que, no entanto, não lhe alteraram o aspecto exterior. Apresenta molduras de cantaria e alvenarias rebocadas e caiadas.
Na casa, requalificada, instalou-se a partir de 2007 um espaço museológico interpretativo e de estudo da vida e obra do autor. Nele pode ser observada apresentação multimédia, além de fotografias e objectos ligados à vida e à obra do autor, assim como uma cozinha tradicional dos Açores, testemunhos de uma época e de uma arte. No quintal, requalificado como um pequeno espaço para apresentações e recitais, observam-se ainda antigos equipamentos e trabalhos em cantaria.

The 123ROLLSROYCE-8-R-V (TUNE) replaces most Lucas-distributors used in Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and Bentley T-series.
!! PLEASE NOTE - THIS UNIT IS NOW SUPPLIED AS A TUNE VERSION !! You will therefore need to programme it via a computor.
The 'factory-setting' for this unit is position '0'. This will give you the original advance- and vacuum- curve as specified for Rolls Royce and Bentley.
The 123ROLLSROYCE-8-R-V should statically be installed at TDC ( end of the compression-stroke ) for cylinder number 1.
The 123ROLLSROYCE-8-R-V not only exactly balances the amount of energy for each cylinder, it also calculates the optimum timing for each spark, in order to run the engine as smooth as possible!
The 123ROLLSROYCE-8-R-V comes inclusive a specially designed drive-dog, that connects 'free of play' to the camshaft. | {

Q: Remove top 2 elements along with namespace using XSLT I have an input XML as shown below
<ns9:Messages xmlns:ns9="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns9:Message1>
<ZCOD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION02>
<IDOC BEGIN="1">
<EDI_DC40 SEGMENT="1">
<DIRECT>2</DIRECT>
<MESTYP>COD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION</MESTYP>
</EDI_DC40>
<E101COD_S_SRV_CONF SEGMENT="1">
<REFOBJKEY>0000122425</REFOBJKEY>
<REFDOCTYPE>L2</REFDOCTYPE>
</E101COD_S_SRV_CONF>
</IDOC>
</ZCOD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION02>
</ns9:Message1>
</ns9:Messages>
I need the output to be as below, essentially removing the top 2 elements and the namespace. I am able to do it by applying 2 XSLT one after another, but how can I do it using one XSLT.
Please note I can not use template match on the 3rd level node (ZCOD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION02) as this name can be anything in runtime.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ZCOD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION02>
<IDOC BEGIN="1">
<EDI_DC40 SEGMENT="1">
<DIRECT>2</DIRECT>
<MESTYP>COD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION</MESTYP>
</EDI_DC40>
<E101COD_S_SRV_CONF SEGMENT="1">
<REFOBJKEY>0000122425</REFOBJKEY>
<REFDOCTYPE>L2</REFDOCTYPE>
</E101COD_S_SRV_CONF>
</IDOC>
</ZCOD_SERVICE_CONFIRMATION02>
Best regards, Abinash
A: Assuming that the name and namespace of your 2nd level node is fixed (ns9:Message1), you could apply the following XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns9="http://sap.com" version="2.0">
<xsl:output exclude-result-prefixes="ns9" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of copy-namespaces="no" select="//*[parent::ns9:Message1]"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Blu-ray Review: SUPER MARIO BROS: THE MOTION PICTURE Isn't As Bad As You've Been Led To Believe
Posted on November 4, 2014 by Niall Browne in Reviews
It's hard to imagine how big a failure Super Marion Bros: The motion Picture was on it's release in 1993. Directed by Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel, the film was supposed to be the film that brought video games and movies together, a lucrative union that was to last for decades to come. It wasn't and the film essentially became the byword for why these two art forms should never converge.
Looking back on it over 20 years later and it's hard to see what's wrong with it. We live in a time when nearly all summer blockbusters are terrible and we know that going in. However, think back in a rose tinted way to 1993 when dinosaurs ruled the word in Jurassic Park and Super Mario Bros was never going to cut the mustard. The film follows Mario and Luigi Mario (Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo) as they delve deep into the bowls of Brooklyn to rescue Princess Daisy (Samantha Mathis) from the clutches of the evil lizard King Koopa (Dennis Hooper). The plot doesn't make a lot of sense, but at least the film's practical effects still impress in the 21st Century.
Behind the scenes shenanigans meant that nobody ever had a handle on the tone for Super Mario Bros and it shows. The game is light and breezy, while the film's dark visuals are betrayed by a script that never seems to know if it wants to be a hard edged science fiction drama or a children's film. As it turns out, the film is both, meaning that nobody was ever going to be satisfied by what's on the screen (unless you've always wanted to see Lance Henriksen emerge from a giant fungus).
Super Mario Bros: The Motion Picture isn't a very good film, but it's much better than history would lead you to believe. However, you could argue that this, along with The Last Action Hero, was when the rot first set-in on the summer blockbuster.
A wonderful 50 minute retrospective documentary where everyone (save the late Bob Hoskins) chips in on what the film was and what it could have been. The film also comes with an image gallery and an EPK from back in the day. Good stuff.

College Football Betting - Trends and Rivalry Games
In college they have trends and in the pros they have trends. There is one difference between the two though: NCAA teams stay truer to trends than the pros. If a team is1-11 against the spread (ATS) on the first Saturday in October, most of the time that trend holds true. It's funny sometimes because it's like both teams know that trend and it turns out to be a massacre on a Saturday morning. The scary part is that there are trends on anything and everything! First Saturdays, last Saturdays, morning games, night games, afternoon games, temperature trends, color trends, if the quarterback or running back had so many yards the game before trends, you name it, they have a trend for it? and the real scary part is a lot of times they hold true. In the college ranks, studying the trends is a great way to bet.
Rivalry games play a huge part in a point spread. A lot of times the teams are of equal talent and other times one team is really good and the other is rather crappy. But if it's a rivalry game, the point spreads are usually pretty low no matter how good or bad the teams are. A quick example: In 1996, when Jake "The Snake" Plummer was playing for Arizona State and had that great team, they played their rival Arizona at Arizona. At the time, Arizona State was ranked in the top 3 while Arizona was struggling to win 5 games.
I was figuring the point spread to be in the minus 20's for Arizona State. My mouth dropped when I saw the opening line: Arizona State -7. I said to myself that can't be right but in fact it was. I thought to myself, even being alumni of the University of Arizona, this was a no brainer bet, Arizona State all the way. Arizona State had a chance to be National Champs and even though Arizona was their rival it should be a blowout. For the first half, it was a close game; I actually believe it was tied at halftime. But in the end Arizona St. did blow them out 56-14.
A minus 7-point spread just shows how big a rivalry game is to a point spread. If you look at the rest of the games in that series since that 1996 game, not one game is decided by more than 10 points! Rivalry games usually stay rather close. Look at Florida/Tennessee, those games are usually real close and those point spreads are just as close. Be careful with rivalry games, even though a team is much better than the other, doesn't mean a for sure victory. | {

Kane strikes as Spurs continue Champions League quest

The top four in the Premier League are assured of a place in the 2021/22 Champions League
LONDON: Harry Kane scored his 22nd Premier League goal of the season as Tottenham Hotspur beat Wolves 2-0 on Sunday to maintain their hopes of a top-four finish.
England captain Kane fired Spurs ahead on the stroke of half-time before Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg doubled their lead in the 62nd minute.
Victory left Spurs in sixth place, five points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, with a maximum of six points available to them from their final two league games.
The top four in the Premier League are assured of a place in the 2021/22 Champions League.
Already crowned Premier League title-winners Manchester City and Chelsea will contest this season's Champions League final in Porto on May 29.
But if the Blues — beaten in Saturday's FA Cup final by Leicester — remain in the top four there won't be an additional Champions League place given to the fifth-placed side in the Premier League.
Deposed English champions Liverpool, currently fifth, will move to within a point of Chelsea if they win away to already-relegated West Bromwich Albion later Sunday.
Eighth-placed Everton, Liverpool's local rivals, are at home to bottom of the table Sheffield United in the day's concluding Premier League match.
Kane gave Spurs the lead running onto Hojberg's through ball behind center backs Conor Coady and Romain Saiss.
The Spurs star side-stepped Coady's challenge and rounded goalkeeper Rui Patricio, before curling the ball into the corner of the net.
Hojberg made it 2-0 just after the hour when he followed up Gareth Bale's shot and tapped the ball in after Patricio could only parry.
Earlier, Crystal Palace twice came from behind to beat Aston Villa 3-2, with Tyrick Mitchell's first goal for the club sealing victory six minutes from time.
John McGinn's third goal of the season put Villa ahead in the 17th minute at Selhurst Park before Christian Benteke equalized against his former club with a 32nd-minute header.
But Palace fell behind again two minutes later when Anwar El Ghazi scored from close range.
The Eagles equalized for a second time in the 76th minute when Wilfried Zaha grabbed his 11th goal of the season with low shot deflected in off Ahmed Elmohamady.
The comeback was complete in the 84th minute when the 21-year-old Mitchell followed up from close range after teammate Eberechi Eze had miscued.
Victory lifted south London club Palace to 13th.

We are becoming reckless. And careless. Gifts. Morning kisses. Missed punctuations. What are we doing? How are we going to explain this? We knew this should've been us from the beginning. Why are we always so scared to ask for all that we want? This is no longer about just chemistry, no, this is about the recklessness in our actions. How terrible can two lovers be when nobody wants to leave?
I think we are reaching our limit. | {

Airwar
Author: Brian Philpott
Illustrator: Terry Hadler
Users in the USA and Canada please select your location at the top of this page to see prices in your currency. Users in the UK and the Rest of the World will be billed in GBP.
This book traces the combat history of the RAF Bomber Units that operated between July 1942 and 1945. The major aircraft types deployed by the RAF during this period are all covered, and their missions detailed. Aircraft markings and aircrew uniforms are shown in full colour illustrations.
Terry Hadler has illustrated a number of Osprey titles over the years, and has a special interest in armoured vehicles. Richard Hook was born in 1938 and trained at Reigate College of Art. After national service with 1st Bn, Queen's Royal Regiment, he became art editor of the much-praised magazine Finding Out during the 1960s. He has worked as a freelance illustrator ever since, earning an international reputation particularly for his deep knowledge of Native American material culture; and has illustrated more than 30 Osprey titles. Richard is married and lives in Sussex; his three children Adam, Jason, and Christa are all professionally active in various artistic disciplines.

The risk directly associates with low levels of vitamin D. That is the conclusion of recent study published in the European Journal of Cancer. The investigators measured the blood vitamin D levels of 137 subjects who had been diagnosed with melanoma. They collected the blood samples at the time of diagnosis of the disease. Another group of 99 healthy subjects served as the control group. The investigators collected the samples of the control group between October and April. The scientists then compared the blood collections of the melanoma group with those of the control group. They then determined whether vitamin D levels had an association with melanoma risk.
The study produced convincing results regarding vitamin D and melanoma risk.
The controls (no melanoma) had vitamin D levels 50% higher than the melanoma group (27.8 ng/ml vs. 18 ng/ml).
66.2% of the melanoma group had vitamin D "deficiency," compared to only 15.2% of the health controls. The scientists defined vitamin D deficiency as being equal to or less than 20 ng/ml. So, the melanoma group had more than four-times the risk of deficiency.
The scientists defined vitamin D "sufficiency" as being equal to or greater than 30 ng/ml. They found that only 7.4% of melanoma patients were sufficient, compared to 37.4% of healthy controls. Hence, the melanoma group had about one-fifth the likelihood of having sufficient D levels.
First of all, the science demonstrated a significant inverse association with vitamin D sufficiency versus deficiency. Those who had sufficient levels had only 4% of the melanoma risk when compared to those who were deficient! Hence, this demonstrates that those with the lowest vitamin D levels (after adjusting for confounding factors) had 25-times the melanoma risk!
And, vitamin D insufficiency vs. deficiency was significantly inversely associated with melanoma. Those who were insufficient had a definite advantage over those who were deficient. They had only 13% of the melanoma risk.
In addition, this research proves conclusively that sun deprivation is a major cause of melanoma. I say this because about 90% of serum vitamin D is produced by sun exposure to the skin. So, the aforementioned research is really research on sun exposure. It shows that regular sun exposure leads to a profound reduction in melanoma risk. Therefore, Vitamin D levels are surrogate measurements for sun exposure in nearly every case.
Could sunlight increase health through photoproducts beyond vitamin D?
In conclusion: My new book, Embrace the Sun (coauthored by Dr. William Grant), notes that sun exposure provides more than vitamin D. It also provides other photoproducts such as nitric oxide, serotonin, endorphin, and brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF). All of these photoproducts are vital to human health. Could these photoproducts have a positive and protective effect against melanoma risk beyond vitamin D? And, vitamin D produced by sunlight may be superior to that given in pill form.
Finally, this research gives us one more reason to embrace the sun safely without burning. And who would have thought that safe sunlight could be one of the best prophylactics against melanoma risk?
Sun Exposure is more important than Vitamin D to stop Cancer Development. | {

Government of India to make access features mandatory for state & inter-state buses
D.N.I.S. News Network- In a landmark move that could revolutionize the passenger bus travel across India, the Union Transport Ministry, in consultation with the State Transport Ministers, has prepared a notification that would require city and inter-state buses, run by private operators and state-owned companies, to meet minimum safety and comfort standards, including providing access to disabled people, before being given a permit to ply on the road.
For millions of disabled people, the notification would mean a deeper penetration of the idea of access and universal design besides allowing dignified travel by the most used mode of transport that has up to now remained relatively untouched. Thus fulfills one of the demands of the disability movement for implementing provisions of the decade-old Disability Act, which calls for non-discrimination by mandating the re-designing of public buildings, rail compartments, buses and aircrafts among other things.
The guidelines, which would be issued under the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, would also create accreditation boards both at the national and regional level that would certify buses that meet the new norms. As many as 50,000 new buses hit the Indian roads each year.
Delhi Transport Minister approves pilot project for disabled-friendly bus terminal
D.N.I.S. News Network – In the continuing dream roll for disabled citizens in the National Capital, so far as announcement of disabled-friendly transport infrastructure is concerned, the Delhi Government has announced a pilot project for constructing an ultra modern and accessible bus terminal at Hauz Khas.
Delhi Transport Minister Haroon Yusuf approved the pilot project at a presentation recently by the Managing Director of Delhi Transport Corporation (D.T.C.), A. Majumdar, and immediately sanctioned the funds needed for the project.
The blueprint for the project that would suit the low-floor buses recently introduced has been prepared by Samarthya, Centre for Promotion of Barrier-Free Environment for Disabled People in association with Sabala ActionAid. The project has also seen involvement of Indian Institute of Technology Professors Dinesh Mohan and Geetam Tiwari, School of Planning and Architecture students Nitin and Sudipto, D.T.C. General Manager V.K. Bhatia and Manager (Civil) Ranga.
Among the disabled-friendly features that the Hauz Khas bus terminal would have is a sound system that would allow a blind person to hear a recorded voice beckoning people towards the location of the bus stop from as far as 30 feet. The path way will have guiding tiles implanted on the sidewalk for direction to blind commuters. It will also have ramps for easy access.
Further the buses will have speakers on board that would issue announcements stating the destination and route number of that particular bus. At present there are about 5,000 bus stands in Delhi of which only about 2,600 have bus shelters.
Why are there no disabled-friendly cars on Indian roads? Asks National Human Rights Commission
D.N.I.S. News Network- In a much needed move to address the brazen neglect of design and production of passenger cars for disabled people, the National Human Rights Commission (N.H.R.C.) has asked the Central Government as to "why there were no disabled-friendly cars on Indian roads?"
The Commission has asked the Ministry of Heavy Industries Secretary to comment on a complaint that car manufacturing companies, even those in the public sector, have stopped making vehicles for disabled people. According to a news report, a wheelchair user had filed a complaint with N.H.R.C., arguing that car manufacturing companies and the government have the social responsibility to manufacture disabled-friendly vehicles. Taking cognizance, the Commission asked the Government to comment on it.
The issue has surfaced at a time when the National Capital is abuzz with the 8th Auto Expo that showcases the best of the automobile industry in India. It can only be termed as unfortunate that the high-profile event highlights the lack of sensitivity on the part of manufacturers catering to one of the world's fastest growing car market, as there are almost no disabled-friendly models either in production or in conception phase.
Maruti Udyog Limited used to make a Maruti 800 automatic and sell it only to certified disabled people. However, since the car was subsidized, its black-marketing became rampant. The state-owned company instead of working with the government in strengthening the system against malpractice, decided to stop production of the car itself. In the ongoing International Automobile Exhibition, Solio, a variant of Maruti Wagon R, with special disabled-friendly features like provision to carry wheelchairs and rotating driver's seats, is on display. But as any disabled driver would tell, space in the boot for wheelchair is not the only requirement of a disabled-friendly car.
According to a media report, Ford officials have said that the company was "looking" at launching disabled-friendly car models in the coming years. The company has about 15 per cent market share in the mid-size segment in India, and sold around 27,000 Ford models here last year. | {

In western North America, snowpack has declined in recent decades, and further losses are projected through the 21st century. Here, we evaluate the uniqueness of recent declines using snowpackreconstructions from 66 tree-ring chronologies in key runoff-generating areas of the Colorado, Columbia, and Missouri River drainages. Over the past millennium, late 20th century snowpack reductions are almost unprecedented in magnitude across the northern Rocky Mountains and in their north-south synchrony acrossthe cordillera. Both the snowpack declines and their synchrony result from unparalleled springtime warming that is due to positive reinforcement of the anthropogenic warming by decadal variability. The increasing roleof warming on large-scale snowpack variability and trends foreshadows fundamental impacts on streamflow and water supplies across the western United States. | {

The Family Welfare Branch of the National Army (JEFAM) and Ecopetrol launched "Plan Padrino". This plan seeks to provide support to soldiers wounded in pipeline areas in the following departments: Santander, Arauca, Magdalena, Nariño y Putumayo.
El Colombiano reports that last October (2012) Ecopetrol's shares were the fourth most widely traded in the Integrated Latin American Market (MILA), which integrates the equity markets of Chile, Colombia and Peru. The total value of Ecopetrol shares traded during October was approximately US$445M. In Toronto, the stock closed the month up over US$1.50 although the day before the initial phase of the 2012 Round of auctions it had been up over US$4.00.
Federico Renjifo was an Ecopetrol board member before he was appointed Minister of Mines and Energy at the beginning of September. He is still a board member as MinMinas but that opened his existing seat to another candidate. Ecopetrol has called a special general assembly for December 6, 2012. So far the only agenda item is election of the missing board member and the company proposes Jorge Pinzón Sánchez of the law firm Opebsa.
Petrodorado filed its 3Q12 financial results and MD&A. The company had no production because its only productive block, Moriche, was shut in pending a sale expected to be completed in 4Q12. Thus the focus is on exploration. The company has provided frequent updates on its activities and most are still at early stages. The most advanced is the Dorado-1X well in the Talora block which is in testing but with nothing to report yet.
Of this amount, CoP$8,668 (US$4.8M) will be invested in the Meta and CoP$3,447 (US$1.9M) will be allocated to many projects in Casanare. | {

VOLUME II. SYSTEMS AND OPERATIONS
VOLUME III. APPLICATIONS
The first volume of Nanomedicine describes the preliminary technical issues involved in medical nanodevice design, along with some details of the required foundational technical competencies. These required competencies include the ability to sort and transport molecules; chemical, acoustic, and other physical sensors; shape, texture, and compositional control of external surfaces; in vivo power storage, generation, and transmission; communication among nanorobots, and between doctors, patients, and in vivo nanorobots; navigation throughout the body and inside individual cells; manipulation and locomotion at the microscopic level; nanocomputation, timers and nanoclocks, cryothermal operations, and defensive cellular armaments.
Chapter 1 defines the field of nanomedicine and its objectives, keyed to the "biological existence proof" of the feasibility of nanotechnology. Several thought experiments are employed to help the reader develop an intuitive appreciation of time, space, and mechanics in the microworld, where nanorobots will be operating. The goals of biotechnology-based "molecular medicine" are carefully distinguished from the goals of nanomedicine. The evolution of the concept of nanomedicine and cell repair machines is described as the natural culmination of millennia of medical history. The limits of nanomedicine are presented, although by 20th century standards these limits appear, for the most part, quite tolerable and modest in scope. The applicability of the Hippocratic Oath in the nanomedical era is explored. The chapter finishes with an overview of the entire three volume series.
Since nanomachines cannot yet be built, it is necessary to credibly establish that such devices are feasible, and that their design, fabrication, and operation violate no laws of physics and will obey sound engineering principles. A number of classical objections to nanotechnology (e.g. quantum mechanics, thermal motions, friction) are considered and resolved. Precursor technologies to nanotechnology and nanomedicine, such as micromachines/MEMS, telemicrosurgery, and tissue engineering, are briefly reviewed. The concept of molecular manufacturing is reviewed, including the differences between top-down and bottom-up manufacturing. Three principal paths to molecular manufacturing — proximal probes, biotechnology, and supramolecular chemistry with self-assembly — are outlined, and a few alternative pathways are suggested. The chapter concludes with discussions and brief descriptions of molecular machine parts, nanocomponents, and nanomaterials, along with the results of molecular computational simulations; nano-assemblers and the Foresight Institute Feynman Prize; desktop manufacturing; and the challenges of molecular engineering and design (nano-CAD).
The human body is comprised of at least 100,000 different molecular species, including perhaps 5,000 different species within each tissue cell (Section 3.1). Transporting and sorting such a broad range of essential molecular species will be an important basic capability of many nanomedical systems.
The three principal methods for distinguishing and conveying molecules that are most useful in nanomedicine are diffusion transport (Section 3.2), membrane filtration (Section 3.3), and receptor-based transport (Section 3.4). The chapter ends with a brief discussion of binding site engineering (Section 3.5).
Chapter 3 detailed outline (try this first) Chapter 3 text and illustrations
Medical nanorobots must be able to acquire information from their environment if they are to properly execute their assigned tasks. Such acquisition is achieved using onboard nanoscale sensors, or nanosensors, of various types. Nanosensors make it possible for medical nanodevices to monitor environmental states at three different operational levels: (1) internal nanorobot states, (2) local and global somatic states (inside the human body), and (3) extrasomatic states (sensory data originating outside the human body).
Specific nanosensor technologies include sensors to detect chemical, displacement and motion, force and mass, acoustic, thermal, and electromagnetic stimuli. Typical sensor device mass, volume, and maximum sensitivity limits are summarized in each Section. The chapter ends with a brief description of in vivo bioscanning and external macrosensing.
It has been asserted that nanomechanical systems fundamentally differ from systems of biological molecular machinery in their basic architecture specifically, that nanomechanical components are supported and constrained by stiff housings, while biological components often can move freely with respect to one another. As regards medical nanodevices, this may be a somewhat artificial distinction. The likelihood that most nanoscale components will be connected in rigid arrays does not imply that the nano machines themselves must be entirely rigid in shape, nor does it rule out the possibility that some major nanomachine components may be designed to allow periodic reconfiguration and repositioning.
A flexible or "metamorphic" surface is a nanodevice exterior surface comprised of independently controllable elements that can translate or rotate their relative positions, thus enlarging or contracting total surface area of the device, or changing its shape, with or without altering the membership of elements in the surface, with or without altering the enclosed volume of the entire nanomachine, while maintaining continuous structural integrity and nonpermeability of the surface. The range of possible designs is enormous.
Chapter 6. Power
Device energetics may represent the most serious limitation in nanorobot design. Almost all medical nanodevices will be actively powered. Mechanical motions, pumping, chemical transformations and the like all require the expenditure of energy. Even a drug molecule interaction with a biological receptor site reduces free energy by ~50 kT. Heat dissipation is also a major consideration in nanomachine design, particularly when large numbers of nanomachines are deployed in cyto or in vivo.
Chapter 6 opens with a review of the various forms of stored energy that may be accessible to working nanodevices. Subsequent sections describe how various forms of energy (likely to be available in vivo) can be converted into many other forms including thermal, mechanical, acoustic, chemical, electromagnetic, and nuclear sources and how such energy may be transmitted from one place to another inside the human body. The chapter closes with an enumeration of issues and techniques useful in assessing energy requirements and performance restrictions in medical nanodevice design.
Communication is an important fundamental capability of medical nanorobots. At the most basic level, nanomachines must pass sensory and control data among internal subsystems to ensure stable and correct device operation. They must also exchange messages with biological cells, communicating with the human body at the molecular level. Nanodevices must be able to communicate with each other in order to: (1) coordinate complex, large-scale cooperative activities, (2) pass along relevant sensory, messaging, navigational, and other operational data, and (3) monitor collective task progress. Finally, nanorobots must be able to receive messages from, and transmit messages to, both the human patient and external entities including antennas and telecommunications links, laboratory or bedside computers, and attending medical personnel.
Chapter 7 opens with an analysis of the most common communication modalities and communication network architectures, followed by a discussion of the many specific communication tasks to be performed. This latter discussion, constituting about half of Chapter 7, concentrates on the following specific situations: Inmessaging from external sources, inmessaging from patient or user, intradevice messaging, interdevice messaging, biocellular messaging, outmessaging to the user, outmessaging to an external receiver, and transvenue outmessaging.
It is difficult to imagine any significant application of medical nanodevices which does not involve navigation, however crude. Devices intended to monitor somatic states, assemble artificial internal structures, remove tumors or foreign matter, combat infections, or perform repairs, must normally be extremely tissue- or cell-specific. Navigation is also required to execute many control protocols, to locate dedicated energy, communication, or navigational helper organs, or to stationkeep and coordinate with other nanodevices. Even bloodborne nanorobots intended to operate solely at the systemic level such as nanobiotics, immunocytes, or respirocytes (artificial red cells) must know if they have been prematurely ejected from the vasculature so that they may cease functioning or at least modify their activities.
Chapter 8 opens with a broad survey of human somatography. This is followed by general discussions of positional navigation including high-resolution navigational networks; functional navigation, ranging from simple demarcation strategies to thermographic, barographic, and chemographic navigation, as well as continuous real-time biotagraphic mapping; and cytonavigation, including cytometrics, molecular cytoidentification, and navigational cytography and nucleography. The chapter concludes with a brief look at the challenges of ex vivo navigation.
Manipulation and mobility will be important basic capabilities in many classes of medical nanodevices. This chapter opens with a discussion of adhesion forces at the molecular level and the performance of nanoscale fluid pumps and fluidic circuits. Several classes of nanomanipulators are described, along with various tool tips and manipulator configurations such as massively parallel manipulator arrays. Techniques of in vivo locomotion are described in the context of bloodstream and nanodevice rheology, including swimming, anchoring, nanodiapedesis, cell penetration, intracellular mobility, and cytocarriage. The chapter concludes with a discussion of ex vivo locomotion.
Chapter 10 describes a number of important additional technical capabilities that may prove useful to some or all medical nanodevices, in various scenarios or theaters of operation. The most important of these capabilities is computation, including nanomechanical, nanoelectronic, and nanoscale data storage technologies. Other capabilities include timers and nanoclocks with long-term nanosecond stability; high-pressure materials storage; limitations and techniques of cryothermal operations; and defensive cellular armaments which will allow pathogenic cells to be efficiently dispatched.
The second volume of Nanomedicine considers the system-level technical requirements in the design and operation of medical nanodevices, and systems of such nanodevices.
Part 1 of Volume II describes aspects of nanomedical operations and configurations including issues of closed-loop sensory feedback and teleoperation, swarm control, centralized vs. distributed control architectures, repair and reliability issues, deployment configurations, medical utility fogs, and replicators.
Part 2 of Volume II deals with a multitude of issues involving clinical safety and performance, including medical nanorobot biocompatibility, immunoreactivity and thrombogenicity, methods of nanorobotic somatic ingress and egress, side effects of nanomedical treatments, nanodevice failure modes and unwanted environmental interactions, potential iatrogenic factors, and other safety issues.
Part 3 of Volume II reviews the various classes of medical nanosystems, including instruments and tools, diagnostic systems, specific medical nanorobot devices, chromatin and protein editors, and various complex nanorobotic systems including cell repair and personal defensive systems.
The third volume of Nanomedicine describes the full range of nanomedical applications using molecular nanotechnology inside the human body. It is written from the perspective of a future nanomedical physician or biomedical practitioner in an era of widely available nanomedicine.
Volume III describes appropriate nanomedical treatments for cardiovascular repair, disease processes, trauma and acute injuries including amputations and thermal/radiation burns, and brain and spinal injuries. Nanomedical issues in nutrition and digestion, sex and reproduction, and cosmetics and recreation are explored, along with proof-of-principle designs for numerous nanoengineered artificial organs and human augmentation systems. Chapter 30 describes the control and elimination of most aging processes and causes of death prevalent in the 20th century, the ultimate limits to human longevity, and current cryonics preservation strategies along with plausible revival protocols. The volume concludes with a discussion of possible social impacts and social acceptance of nanomedicine, nanotechnology implementation timelines, and some speculations on the future of hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, and the medical profession.

Somewhere in the Unknown World
A Collective Refugee Memoir
Kao Kalia Yang
All over this country, there are refugees. But beyond the headlines, few know who they are, how they live, or what they have lost. Although Minnesota is not known for its diversity, the state has welcomed more refugees per capita than any other, from Syria to Bosnia, Thailand to Liberia. Now, with nativism on the rise, Kao Kalia Yang—herself a Hmong refugee—has gathered stories of the stateless who today call the Twin Cities home.
Here are people who found the strength and courage to rebuild after leaving all they hold dear. Awo and her mother, who escaped from Somalia, reunite with her father on the phone every Saturday, across the span of continents and decades. Tommy, born in Minneapolis to refugees from Cambodia, cannot escape the war that his parents carry inside. As Afghani flees the reach of the Taliban, he seeks at every stop what he calls a certificate of his humanity. Mr. Truong brings pho from Vietnam to Frogtown in St. Paul, reviving a crumbling block as well as his own family.
In Yang's exquisite, necessary telling, these fourteen stories of refugee journeys restore history and humanity to America's strangers and redeem its long tradition of welcome.
Praise for Somewhere in the Unknown World
"Exceptional . . . This is an important collection of voices and experiences."—Ms. Magazine
"Affecting . . . Yang offers glimpses of lives before, of escapes, of stopovers, of arrivals, of transformation . . . These voices . . . provide an intimate window into once faraway lives, now intertwined together in a community they call home."—Shelf Awareness
"Kao Kalia Yang has long used her own voice and refugee story to create transcendent literature. With Somewhere in the Unknown World, she brings us many voices whose powerful, individual tales converge in one state to create a prism of humanity. In a time when the term 'refugee' is so often flat and faceless, this is an essential book of poetic beauty and social witness."—Sarah Smarsh, author of Heartland
"Kao Kalia Yang raises a mirror to her home state of Minnesota and a kaleidoscope of refugee stories comes tumbling out. This is a book that burns with personal accounts of survival. But it's also a reminder that we, as a nation, will never know where we're going until we understand where each and every one of us has come from."—Moustafa Bayoumi, author of How Does It Feel to Be a Problem
"As borders are closing against refugees and derogatory stereotypes are promulgated by nativists, Kao Kalia Yang's delicate, respectful book is especially welcome. With masterful concision, Yang presents these refugees' lives with a poignant honesty that puts prejudice to shame and opens doors to the heart."—Helen Benedict, author of Wolf Season
"Somewhere in the Unknown World is an offering from the heart, a memoir of hope. You do not just read the stories in this beautiful work, you belong to them. You fear for the children when the rebels attack. You weep for the sisters left on the other side of the river. You smile at a family reunited after too many years apart. These are the unseen lives of our neighbors, drivers, receptionists, and classmates, and this book should be required reading at a time when refugees are often misunderstood. Yang's is a voice we all need to hear more."—Kirsty Gladfelter, Senior Director, International Rescue Committee
"With grace and empathy, Yang reaches to the heart of each of these fourteen tales of refugees in Minnesota and connects them to her own past and future. Reading this book is like watching an explosion of texture and color as ordinary people place their formative stories in the hands of an artist and fellow refugee who weaves them into a single elegant tapestry."—Dina Nayeri, The Ungrateful Refugee
"A work of technical as well as empathetic mastery . . . The stories are as powerful as they are unique, and Yang makes the wise decision to let her subjects express themselves . . . Yang's delicate touch allows us to see what is right in front of us: luck."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Lyrical . . . This heartfelt and exquisitely written account shines a poignant light on the immigration debate."—Publishers Weekly
From Irina to Irene
ANY PASSERBY CAN tell you that Irina has dark hair and dark eyes, but if you look carefully at her, you'll see that Irina's thick hair is a deep auburn and that her eyes are a blend of brown...
Kao Kalia Yang is the author of The Song Poet, which received the 2017 Minnesota Book Award and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, the Chautauqua Prize, the PEN USA Literary Award, and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize. Her previous book, The Latehomecomer, also received the Minnesota Book Award. Her children's books include A Map into the World, which won the Minnesota Book Award, and The Shared Room. Yang, a regular contributor to NPR's On Being, lives in Saint Paul.

Final yes from NICE for Gilead's Epclusa
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence has now published final guidance endorsing Epclusa as an option for the treatment of adults with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1-6 infection on the NHS in England and Wales.
Epclusa - a once-daily, fixed-dose combination of the nucleotide analog polymerase inhibitor sofosbuvir (SOF/VEL; approved as Sovaldi) and the pan-genotypic NS5A inhibitor velpatasvir - is the first all-oral, single tablet regimen cleared for the treatment of adults with genotype 1-6 chronic HCV.
It is also the first single tablet regimen licensed in Europe for the treatment of patients with HCV genotype 2 and 3, without the need for ribavirin, which can cause side effects, but physicians may consider the addition of RBV for genotype 3 infected patients with compensated cirrhosis.
Epclusa's approval in Europe is based on data from the Phase III ASTRAL trials, which showed that, of the 1,035 patients treated with the combination for 12 weeks - 21 percent of which had compensated cirrhosis and 28 percent of which had failed prior treatments - 98 percent achieved the primary efficacy endpoint of a sustained virologic response.
"The decision by NICE to recommend Epclusa is a positive step for patients who have previously been faced with limited treatment options. Making Epclusa available across England ensures equitable access to effective treatments for all patients with hepatitis C, regardless of genotype," commented William Rosenberg, professor of Hepatology, University College of London and the Royal Free Hospital.
The Hepatitis C Trust also welcomed the decision, which, it stressed, "allows for people with hepatitis C in England to now have another interferon-free treatment available to them, particularly one which is effective across different genotypes".
"This is a huge step forward in ensuring that everyone can access interferon-free treatment and helps take us closer to the elimination of hepatitis C in England as a serious public health concern," noted that charity's chief executive, Charles Gore.
Epclusa's list price is £38,980 for a 12 week course of treatment and, if taken in combination with ribavirin, around £40,000. However, Gilead has agreed a confidential discount to the NHS to improve the drug's cost-effectiveness, and said it is committed to working with NHS England to ensure that all eligible patients get access.
It is estimated that around 214,000 individuals in the UK are chronically infected with hepatitis C, a virus most commonly transmitted through blood-to-blood contact. Without adequate treatment, hepatitis C can cause serious liver damage and potentially life-threatening complications.

SCCM Guru Webcast – 1 Week to Go!
In one week from today – on March 28th – I will be presenting for BDNA's SCCM Guru webcast series on the power of SCCM task sequences. To sign up for the webcast, visit the registration page at http://info.bdna.com/20120328Webcast-SCCMGuru-NickMoseley_RegistrationPage.html. Additionally, this Friday, I am presenting a bulk of my material to our Denver-area Microsoft Enterprise Management User Group. If you're here, please come!
SCCM task sequences are most commonly used for operating system deployment. They have tremendous power and usefulness, which are often unknown, overlooked, and underutilized.
In this presentation, we will explore various aspects of task sequences and demonstrate ways that they can be used in your day-to-day administration of SCCM – including uses outside the realm of deploying an OS! | {

My 2002 Vet has the climate control system for AC and heat; however, the small panel doesn't luminate any longer. On occasion I can see a faint image....I can't tell what mode the AC is in?
I LOVE my new C5!
The lower row of buttons on my module are cracking. I was hoping to find replacement buttons, but am told they don't exist.
I'm on the hunt for a cheap replacement controller to either salvage the buttons off of or to replace the entire unit.
In searching, I'm finding there are various part numbers for what looks like the same part.
Any suggestions or tips on how to approach getting my controller in the condition I want it?
You have the lights in the buttons which is what is listed below and then you have the LCD panel itself...If the LCD is not working you will require a new panel see P/N listed below.
The Corvette Air Conditioning dual zone climate controllers are notorious for this failure! The base HVAC controller is much more reliable. Usually unless you are a DIY type of guy and want to fix dim lights you will end up buying a new, salvage or exchange part. Changing the part is pretty straight forward and requires removing the center console and radio bezel. Unscrewing the controller and disconnecting the wiring is pretty basic. | {

title: "Bug Reopening on Firefox for Android (Before and After the New Process) [DRAFT]"
date: 2013-09-12 16:16
comments: true
categories: phd
---
In early 2011, the Mozilla Foundation [adopted a faster release process](http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2011/03/mozilla-outlines-16-week-firefox-development-cycle/), dubbed *train model*, with new releases every 6 weeks. It wasn't until the following year, though, that Firefox for Android jumped on the bandwagon. Due to the need to rebuild the user interface, they decided to hold the switch to the train model until June, 2012. Before that, they only shipped a new version when it met quality and performance criteria -- even if this meant missing the next train/release date.
How the process change affected Firefox for Android's quality? I've computed some quality metrics (specifically metrics related to bug reopening) on its bug reports before and after the switch to the train model to try to answer this question.
We estimated that the process change occured near June 26th, 2012, when [Firefox for Android 14 was released](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases/Old/2012). We classified bug reports based on whether they were created before or after the date.
<!-- TODO: recompute metrics -->
Here's the computed metrics:
<!--
**Metric** | **Before** | **After**
| |
Number of issues | 2449 | 7192
Days | 1257 | 468
% verifications by test team | 79% | 55%
% of bugs reopened after FIXED | 11% | 5%
% of bugs reopened after VERIFIED | 4% | 1%
Days btw FIXED and REOPENED (avg) | 14 | 11
Days btw VERIFIED and REOPENED (avg) | 28 | 18
% of time fixing bugs | 92% | 94%
% of time bugs are latent | 4.5% | 2.2%
-->
**Metric** | **Before** | **After**
--------------------------------------|------------|----------
Number of issues | 5005 | 4636
% verifications by test team | 56% | 38%
% of bugs reopened after FIXED | 9% | 4%
% of bugs reopened after VERIFIED | 3.5% | 1.5%
Days btw FIXED and REOPENED (avg) | 12 | 14
Days btw VERIFIED and REOPENED (avg) | 24 | 18
% of time fixing bugs | 92% | 94%
% of time bugs are latent | 4.5% | 2.2%
To interpret the results, it is useful to know a little bit about the [Mozilla release process](http://mozilla.github.io/process-releases/) and [how it is reflected in bug reports](/blog/2013/09/08/mozilla-process/). For instance, keep in mind that when a bug is marked `FIXED`, its patch has undergone peer review and automated testing; when it is marked `VERIFIED`, it has additionally undergone manual integration testing.
From the table, we can see that the number of bugs reports that are reopened after being fixed dropped by more than half in the rapid release process (**TODO: why?**). The same can be said about the proportion of bugs that are reopened after being manually tested. <!-- A more dramatic change can be observed within bugs that were manually tested: now they are reopened 4x less often. -->
After a bug is considered fixed, the time it takes for people to notice that it should be reopened is called latent time. With the new process, the average latent time has increased a little, from 12 to 14 days. If we consider the lifetime of all bug reports over the two periods analyzed, 3.5% of the time used to be spent thinking that a bug was fixed when it was actually latent; now, this time was reduced to 2.5%.
A curious fact from the table regards the test team, automatically identified as the group of people whose work is specialized in manual testing (which appears in bug reports as the `VERIFIED` status). The test team used to be responsible for about 56% of the verifications; now the verification effort seems more evenly distributed, as the test team only performs 38% of the verifications. (**TODO: why?**)

Lagoon lifestyle meets high-tech living in Pasco County's connected city
WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla. (FOX 13) - A lagoon lifestyle is a big selling point at the Epperson community in Wesley Chapel, Florida, but the real attraction is below the surface.
Residents in Epperson are watching technology like nowhere else in the United States come online in their backyards.
Epperson is creating a so-called connected city. It's the only community approved by Florida lawmakers to speed-up development.
They foresee an affordable east coast version of Silicon Valley. Epperson is the first US community built on top of a fiber network, allowing homes and business to communicate at blazing-fast gigabit internet speeds.
"I've never had internet speeds the way I do here and its part of my HOA, it's awesome!" says resident Kenneth Shere.
High speed internet is included in the fees, but residents can pay extra to get speeds up to 20 times faster than the average connection.
Community developers call it ultra-fi technology, and they hope it will lure high-tech companies and jobs.
"The goal is to attract the best and brightest to come to Pasco County," says Metro Development Group President Greg Singleton.
Health, wellness, and medical technology will also anchor the connected city. These are very attractive features for retirees like Cheryl and William Murdoch.
"Getting older in age and being retired, medical becomes a very important part of your life and having it all here instead of driving to Tampa is a big plus for us," says Cheryl.
Soon those gigabit speeds will extend throughout the neighborhood on an underground Wi-Fi system.
"It should be like being in my house on Wi-Fi, walk out and my phone will switch off my network and dump onto the Wi-Fi network in the neighborhood," says Shere.
The connected city will have 10,000 home sites when it's finished. If the high-tech design is successful, you could see more communities like it around Florida.

Use of age-altering FaceApp grants Russian company 'perpetual, irrevocable' rights to your content
The Russia-based FaceApp has become a viral trend for its age-altering photo filter, but its terms and conditions have been raising privacy concerns.
The app has gained immense popularity for allowing users to digitally alter their age, from much younger to much older. Even celebrities have joined in, posting pictures of their youthful, current or elder selves. More than a million users have downloaded the app from Google Play , and FaceApp is now the number-one app in the Apple Store's "Photo and Video" apps section.
But the terms and conditions of FaceApp allow it to access to use, modify, adapt and publish any images that a user offers up in exchange for its free artificial intelligence service. | {

Blake and Avon and the early relationship between them
Judith Proctor
I suspect part of the attraction between Blake and Avon was that Blake understood Avon all too well. Remember 'Cygnus Alpha') where Avon finds the guns on the flight deck and promptly pulls one on Blake. Blake carries on talking to Jenna as though nothing had happened.
Although I think trust was the key ingredient in their relationship, I don't cite this scene as part of it. It wasn't trust as so much good reading of character that made Blake ignore the gun. This was early days - indeed, Avon tries to abandon Blake on Cygnus Alpha later in the same episode.
Yet, by 'Time Squad', only the next episode the relationship is clicking into place and by 'The Web' it is fully forged. What factors made that happen?
Here's one obvious one. Avon tried to abandon Blake on Cygnus Alpha - did Blake know? There's a fair chance that Jenna would have told him. He had to know that something delayed the teleport - he'd have asked what happened.
Yet his reaction is not to turn on Avon, but to give him a second chance. In 'Time Squad', he and Jenna teleport over to the alien capsule. He's taken with him the person who stopped Avon abandoning hin on Cygnus Alpha and leaving Avon with Vila and Gan, neither of whom would be able to stop Avon. Vila hasn't the willpower, Gan can't use a gun.
He's given Avon exactly the chance he had before, but with the odds improved and he's staking his own life on the result. What kind of a man does that make Blake? Either a fool, or a man who is prepared to trust to an extrordinary degree.
Avon even challenges him with the danger of the situation. Blake gives Avon a reply that gives no verbal reassurances of faith (which Avon would probabaly have seen as palatitudes in any case), but continues to calmly place his life in Avon's hands. (and that split infinitive is *deliberate*, so there)
Blake was a man of actions, not words. He could use words, but they were never his primary weapon. He lived by what he believed and Avon, who was used to people who promised everything and did nothing, was faced with a man who trusted him and had a cause that he believed in.
Avon was a man of his word, which was why he tried so hard never to give it. Only once (that I can recall) did Blake ask him for an actual promise. The rest of the time, he took the basic sense of honour under the cynicism for granted - which I suspect Avon found very frustrating and also drew him to Blake like nothing else could have done.
The only time Blake asked for a promise was when humanity was at stake. He wasn't asking Avon to protect Blake, but to take them all into danger for the sake of people that Avon cared nothing for.

H&M has committed to only using recycled wool in all of its products
Posted by Editorial Team | Oct 29, 2018 | Global
Textile Exchange has today revealed that Arket, Eileen Fisher and M&S have further committed to its Recycled Wool Standard after the three retailers released their first RWS certified clothes with a stated intention to release more RWS certified apparel. Through its Arket lifestyle stores, RWS certified products first appeared through H&M in September featuring certified wool from Uruguay and Australia. Launched in 2016, the RWS has since been adopted by the Argentinian wool industry and also been backed by a number of other brands including Patagonia, which has also adopted the standard.
Yet although there are RWS certified wool farms in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the United States, Argentina and Uruguay, the standard has also been met with some resistance among woolgrowers – particularly in Australia, which is by far the world's largest producer of merino wool for clothing. Eileen Fisher's recently released RWS certified garments were made of wool from New Zealand and Argentina, while the M&S certified range can trace its roots back to Wools of New Zealand, including Palliser Ridge.
Founder Eileen Fisher said, "I believe that the only way we'll have a more responsible industry is if we help lead the change. That means engaging with partners who share our values – other brands, our suppliers and our customers. And that's how we approached responsible wool: by partnering with Textile Exchange and the right farms."
"This is an important milestone as part of our ongoing Plan A commitment to be more transparent about our suppliers and ensure our raw materials come from more sustainable sources, which respect people, communities, the planet and animal welfare," said Phil Townsend of Marks & Spencer.

SBE vs Plug Power: Which stock is a better buy for 2021
Posted by Sundeep Goyal on November 19, 2020 0 Comments
IPOF, not CCIV to merge with Lucid Motors? What you need to know.

GME stock faces 'the mother of all short squeezes' as Citron jumps in to save the shorts.
Switchback Energy Acquisition (NYSE:SBE) stock almost doubled in value since September and Plug Power shares managed to do the same. But which stock will give you a better ROI going forward?
As the world shifts from fossil fuels to sustainable energy, we will need a new kind of infrastructure to support our electricity needs and transportation. ChargePoint and Plug Power are two electric infrastructure companies operating in different segments.
ChargePoint is a California-headquartered EV infrastructure company founded in 2007. ChargePoint is currently the largest independent EV charging infrastructure operator in the world with 150000 charging sites across 14 countries. ChargePoint too has its own cloud-based system allowing customers to find and book any of their stations. In 2020, ChargePoint reverse-merged into Switchback Energy, a SPAC(Special Purpose Acquisition Company) focused on renewable energy. The deal will give ChargePoint $683 million in proceeds to advance its business.
Plug Power is a developer of hydrogen fuel storage and electricity generation systems. However, they also develop storage systems and hydrogen engines for commercial vehicles like forklifts, cargo vehicles, drones, etc. The company went public in the late '90s and was a stock market darling during the dot-com bubble. The stock was moving sideways from then until Amazon inked a deal with a company for its fulfillment centers that included stock-warrants. The company has a market cap of $9.55 billion and is up 600+% this year after outperforming projections for the previous two quarters.
ChargePoint too operates on a host and ChargePoint-owned business model that is both capital-light and high-margin. The company provides complete turn-key solutions to hosts under different arrangements such as host-owned, Chargepoint-owned, and hybrid-ownership. Each arrangement entails different cost-ownership and revenue-sharing structures. ChargePoint also generates recurring revenue from hosts for its cloud platform SaaS. As a first-mover in the space, ChargePoint has a far bigger footprint than any of its competitors.
Plug Power manufacturers complete hydrogen power systems for its customers, who are all commercial ones. The company has a number of verticals including on-site hydrogen storage and electricity and hydrogen powertrains for a variety of commercial applications.
The company has recently revealed its roadmap for the next 4 years, at the end of which it aims to have $1 billion in revenue and $200 million in EBITDA. The company is currently the biggest buyer of liquid hydrogen in the world. PlugPower has plans to generate $200 million in revenue from on-road applications. Their ProGen hydrogen system is based on a modular philosophy and can power electric motors from sub-1k Wh-250kWh, making it applicable to all classes of vehicles, from consumer to freight. The company plans to enter the hydrogen production market and target average daily production of 100 tons by 2024.
Since ChargePoint has just completed its SPAC deal, it is yet to declare any financial results. In 2019, ChargePoint generated a revenue of $147 million and a net loss of $133 million. However, the company stated that it expects hockey-stick growth in revenues. The company aims to grow its network to 2.5 million charging ports by 2025. It expects revenues to grow from $135 million in 2020 to $2.069 billion by 2026, implying a 57% compounded growth rate.
The company is currently trading at a revenue multiple of a little over 9x. ChargePoint has a 51% upfront and 49% recurring revenue ratio. In North America, they have a 73% market share, more than 7x its closest competitor(Blink). The company has given revenue guidance of $198 million and $346 million for FY21 and FY22. The company is currently trading under Switchback Energy and has a market cap of $1.34 billion.
For Q3, PlugPower outperformed all expectations and its own guidance by reporting revenues of $125 million, up 106% YoY, and 74% QoQ. The company has raised its 2020 guidance from $310 million and $330 million. The company deployed a record 4100 fuel cell systems and 13 hydrogen refueling systems. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $24 million, which is very promising as it is already well above the company's target of 20% operating margin by 2024.
While both companies have a very bright future due to a rising demand for EVs and hydrogen systems, Plug Power is definitely the choice with a higher upside, but only for investors with a big risk appetite. Plug Power has positioned itself in very forward-looking verticals and this could pay-off in a very big way for the company.

Protesting against net neutrality in America.
Do you love the internet as much as everyone else in America? Well, hold onto that love because your internet freedom is going to be stolen from you.
Net neutrality is the basic principle that you have the right to access anything on the internet you want without your internet service provider (ISP) slowing down or blocking any content. This is about to change.
In just a couple months, net neutrality will be completely destroyed and ISPs will have complete control over what internet you are allowed to access. Fundamentally, the more money you pay your ISP equals a larger internet range.
In 2015, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) passed net neutrality protection based on Title II of the Communications Act, strengthening internet freedom as much as possible.
However, on May 18, the FCC voted to allow Ajit Pai, Trump's FCC chairman, to pass his plan on destroying net neutrality.
This plan is great for big phone and cable companies. Is it great for the general public as well? Not so much.
The struggle to earn the freedom of speech in America is a well-known one and is dictated in the first amendment. This plan will rid the internet of free speech and ISPs will be able to decide who gets heard and who doesn't.
It's convenient that the amendments America is built on don't apply to President Trump and his chairmen.
How come so many people don't know about net neutrality? It's not a big deal if it's not popular, right?
Wrong. Millions of people around America have made a stand about net neutrality and the only reason there aren't more people protesting is because the FCC is trying to keep this as quiet as possible, predicting the negative reactions the public will have and does have.
The Internet Association, including Google, Twitter, Uber, Netflix and many more, as well as other internet communication sites, like Discord, are speaking out against internet restrictions.
If you think this won't apply to you, you're wrong. This will impact all internet-users.
Lucky for us, the public still maintains the rights the first amendment guarantees us that the FCC would like to ignore and we are able to peacefully assemble and protest, as so many are currently doing.
Spread the word about net neutrality and tell your friends about what is happening. Knowledge is a weapon!
Most importantly, take a stand to maintain net neutrality. Don't say goodbye to open internet; welcome it back to America.
Join the millions of other people protesting against this grotesque coercion and speak your mind! Tell the FFC what net neutrality means to you at https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/search/proceedings?q=name:((17-108)) by clicking +express. Simply fill out the required information and tell FFC what you think in the comment section.
Don't let your open internet be taken away. Tell everyone you know about what's going on and stand up for what you believe in. Good luck, America. | {

Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford 'Kind of Happy' Borderlands 3 Is Epic Games Store Exclusive
By Pranay Parab | Updated: 9 April 2019 22:39 IST
Borderlands 3 PC is an Epic Games Store exclusive at launch
Borderlands 2 was review bombed on Steam
Randy Pitchford wasn't pleased with Steam taking time to fix it
He said he's happy Borderlands 3 is an Epic Games Store exclusive
Randy Pitchford, the outspoken CEO of Gearbox Software, has tweeted that he's "kind of happy" about 2K's decision to make Borderlands 3 a timed exclusive to Epic Games Store. Borderlands 3 is the upcoming instalment from Gearbox's popular loot shooter franchise, which has a massive fan base on PC, like past games in the series, it's being published by 2K. The tweet came after people "review bombed" Borderlands 2 on Steam, which is the world's largest digital store for PC games. Review bombing occurs when a large number of people post negative reviews for a game on Steam, which has been used as a tactic to lodge a protest against game developers or publishers.
Pitchford's tweet reads: "Ironically, that this misuse is possible and that Steam has no interest in correcting this misuse makes me kind of happy about 2k's decision and makes me want to reconsider Gearbox Publishing's current posture on the platform." Most of the people who posted negative reviews on Steam were upset with 2K for making Borderlands 3 an Epic Games Store exclusive for six months. Some of these players appeared to have spent hundreds of hours playing Borderlands 2.
It's important to note that Steam has flagged all the negative reviews that appeared en masse between April 3 and 6, and these don't count towards the game's overall review score on the site anymore. Steam's histogram to show recent reviews can be viewed to see when Borderlands 2 started getting review bombed.
Borderlands 3 Pre-Orders Are Now Up for India on PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Epic Games Store is a digital retail storefront for PC games owned by Epic Games, makers of games such as Infinity Blade and Fortnite. Epic Games Store lacks quite a few of the features you'd take for granted on other PC game stores, but it offers developers a better share of the revenue and it's been able to get multiple games as exclusives on its store. This practice has been controversial, particularly with games such as Metro: Exodus and The Division 2.

Poll: US open to schools for illegal immigrants
Tuesday October 9, 2007
Below is a Poll by Oregon pollster Moore Information. Catch the Full Poll here:
A majority of voters nationwide today believe children of illegal immigrants should be allowed to attend local public schools, but do not necessarily believe these children are also entitled to U.S. citizenship.
Should children of illegal immigrants
be allowed to attend local public schools, or not?
Should 56%
Don't know 6%
Should not 38%
Should children born in the United States
to parents who are in the country illegally
be entitled to U.S. citizenship, or not?
Public Schooling for Children of Illegal Immigrants By a margin of 56-38%, voters nationwide say that children of illegal immigrants should be allowed to attend public schools. The remaining 6% have no opinion. Reactions by subgroup show the leading differences in attitudes are partisan driven. For example, three-in-four Democrats believe children of illegal immigrants should be allowed to attend public schools (75% should/22% should not), as do a majority of Independents (53% should/39% should not). But among Republicans, the majority takes the other viewpoint (56% say these children should not be allowed to attend public schools while 38% say they should). There is consensus agreement among all Democrats that children of illegal immigrants should be allowed to attend public schools, but among Republicans there are differences by philosophy. For example, self-described very Conservative Republicans widely oppose allowing these children to attend public schools (25% should/67% should not), and a majority of somewhat Conservative Republicans also share this view (41/53%), but Moderate Republicans are divided on the issue (49/47%)
Looking at other subgroups, we find women of all ages and men age 18 29 in wide agreement that children of illegal immigrants should be allowed to attend public schools, but men age 30 and older are divided on the issue. Additionally, educating children of illegal immigrants in public schools is more widely supported by postgraduates than by voters with less education, but voters in households with lower annual incomes ($20,000 or less) are more supportive than voters in higher income households. Looking at ethnicity, Hispanic/Latino voters are more likely to support public education for children of illegal National Views on Education for Children of Illegal Immigrants
2 immigrants than are voters of other ethnic backgrounds, though majorities of Caucasians and other minorities also share this sentiment.
Citizenship for Children of Illegal Immigrants When it comes to the question of whether children born in the United States to illegal immigrant parents should be entitled to U.S. citizenship; 49% of voters say these children should be entitled to U.S. citizenship, but 46% disagree and the remaining 5% have no opinion.
Looking at party affiliation, majorities of Democrats say children of illegal immigrants should be entitled to U.S. citizenship, but majorities of Republicans disagree and Independents are divided. Delving deeper into partisanship, we find a majority of Conservative Republicans would not guarantee citizenship to children born in the U.S. to illegal immigrants, but Moderate Republicans are divided. Moderate and Liberal Democrats take the other side of this issue and would guarantee citizenship to these children, but sentiment is divided among self-described Conservative Democrats.
Among other key demographic subgroups, guaranteed citizenship for children born in the U.S. to illegal immigrants is supported by voters age 18-29, postgraduates and minorities (though support is more widespread among Hispanics/Latinos). At the same time, sentiment is divided among voters age 30 and older, voters with a four-year college degree or less education and Caucasians voters.

Having Pond Lighting Issues ? We Can Help !
There are many factors that first need to be addressed when trying to diagnose why your water feature lights are not working. First thing is to obviously check the bulb, if you have halogen style lights it should be easy to tell if the bulb is blown. If the bulb is good, moisture is the next thing to look for when your light suddenly stops working.
With plastic halogen style lights, heat is the main issue that will eventually make your light fail. The plastic heats up when the light is on, and when it cools it draws in moisture. The older the light, the more likely the rubber gasket it worn, allowing the light to ultimately leak.
Can I Fix My Non-Working Lights ?
You Have A 50/50 Chance , In Our Opinion, Refer To "Murphy"
If you start poking around and can't see any physical issues with the light itself, the electrical system is the next thing to diagnose. If all of your lights are out, start at the transformer, moisture will eventually turn to corrosion, and either the internals of the transformer, or the light connections would be the culprit. Check the screws at the bottom of the transformer first. Rusty screw connections will be the issue on cheaper style transformers, that offer little weatherproofing.
If the connections look good, the transformer works, and the bulbs are good, follow the wire from the light to the connection to the main power-line. Make sure rodents didn't chew on the power wire in any spots ( yes this does happen )., and inspect the wire at the connection. Loosen wire nuts and expose the copper wire splice, if the wire looks burnt or black it may need to be replaced. | {

solar system interstellar object
4 sekunder ago
[40] It had an eccentricity of 2.4, an inclination of 10°, and a speed of 43.8 km/s when outside of the Solar System. [50] The validity of any single data point (especially for smaller meteors) remains questionable.

With the first discovery of an interstellar object, the IAU has proposed a new series of small-body designations for interstellar objects, the I numbers, similar to the comet numbering system. The object has since been reclassified as interstellar asteroid 1I/2017 U1 by the International Astronomical Union (IAU), which is responsible for granting official names to bodies in the solar system and beyond. There's been … Meteorite Fragment Points to Missing Dwarf Planet in Early Solar System NASA: Asteroid Could Still Hit Earth in 2068 Interstellar Object 'Oumuamua Might Be a Hydrogen Iceberg "The object will peak in brightness in mid-December and continue to be observable with moderate-size telescopes until April 2020," said Farnocchia. [1] Amir Siraj and Avi Loeb demonstrated that the Oort Cloud could have been formed from ejected planetesimals from other stars in the Sun's birth cluster. In the latter case, the object may be called an interstellar interloper. Recent research suggests that asteroid 514107 Kaʻepaokaʻawela may be a former interstellar object, captured some 4.5 billion years ago, as evidenced by its co-orbital motion with Jupiter and its retrograde orbit around the Sun. Scientists quickly determined that it was the second interstellar object known to have visited our solar system, after the famous 'Oumuamua, and the first comet. Spotted in 2017, the mysterious space traveler 'Oumuamua remains the first and only interstellar object we've seen passing through our solar system. "In this case, the IAU has decided to follow the tradition of naming cometary objects after their discoverers, so the object has been named 2I/Borisov.". [27] Otherwise, measurement errors can transfer near-parabolic orbits over the parabolic limit and create an artificial population of hyperbolic particles, often interpreted as of interstellar origin. The most likely explanation is that the object is outgassing material, like a comet does, creating jets that push it along. This changed its orbit from elliptical to hyperbolic and made it the most eccentric known object at the time, with an eccentricity of 1.057. "The comet's current velocity is high, about 93,000 mph, which is well above the typical velocities of objects orbiting the Sun at that distance," said Davide Farnocchia from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The first, a cigar-shaped object called Oumuamua, took … Interstellar object 1I/2017 U1, named `Oumuamua (pronounced oh-MOO-ah-MOO-ah) received an unexpected boost as it passed through the inner solar system last year, behaving more like an icy comet than a rocky asteroid. The object, dubbed 'Oumuamua, seemed to be long and thin — cigar-shaped — and tumbling end over end. Astronomers at the University of Hawaii estimate it to be between 1.2 and 10 miles across and will be closest to the sun on December 7. Was Oumuamua sent by "alien civilization"? First published on September 24, 2019 / 3:51 PM. But, consider a cylindrical object of mass 3.7x1012kg, length 137 meters and diameter 30 meters. 25 SEPTEMBER 2019 . [22] Here's a remarkable animation of #gb00234, which may be our second known interstellar visitor, taken by astronomer Gennady Borisov - who discovered the object. Astronomers have spotted what they believe is the second object of interstellar origin ever observed in the Solar System. When it was first observed, it was about 33 million km (21 million mi; 0.22 AU) from Earth (about 85 times as far away as the Moon), and already heading away from the Sun. A two-color composite image shows comet 2I/Borisov… The infrared Spitzer was one of many telescopes pointed at 'Oumuamua in the weeks after its discovery that October. Although not involved with the new research, Volk uses simulations to study objects at the outer edges of the solar system. MICHELLE STARR. "The orbit is now sufficiently well known and the object is unambiguously interstellar in origin; it has received its final designation as the second interstellar object, 2I," the IAU said in a press release Tuesday. Discrimination between interstellar and interplanetary populations can be a challenge for intermediate (0.1-1 micrometer) sizes. No object in our solar system does that, and most eccentricities fall between zero and one. The comet C/2019 Q4 (Borisov) was spotted by an amateur astronomer. Amir Siraj and Avi Loeb proposed a search for ʻOumuamua-like objects which are trapped in the Solar System as a result of losing orbital energy through a close encounter with Jupiter. [26] The identification of interstellar meteoroids, observed in the Earth's atmosphere as meteors, is highly challenging and requires high accuracy measurements and appropriate error examinations. Other astronomers doubt the interstellar origin because the meteor catalog used does not report uncertainties on the incoming velocity. The company added that Loeb takes readers inside "the thrilling story" of the first "interstellar visitor" to be spotted in our solar system. [47] On 12 March 2020, astronomers reported observational evidence of "ongoing nucleus fragmentation" from the comet 2I/Borisov.[48]. The first known interstellar object to visit our solar system, 1I/2017 U1 'Oumuamua, was discovered Oct. 19, 2017 by the University of Hawaii's Pan-STARRS1 telescope, funded by NASA's Near-Earth Object Observations (NEOO) Program, which finds and tracks asteroids and comets in Earth's neighborhood. [59] Different mission durations and their velocity requirements were explored with respect to the launch date, assuming direct impulsive transfer to the intercept trajectory. Interstellar object may be headed our way. / CBS News. Amateur and professional astronomers all over the world helped the IAU confirm details about the object. The Initiative for Interstellar Studies (i4is) launched Project Lyra to assess the feasibility of a mission to ʻOumuamua. The Minor Planet Center will assign the numbers. The unique object was discovered on 19 October 2017 by … In November 2018, Harvard astronomers Amir Siraj and Avi Loeb reported that there should be hundreds of 'Oumuamua-size interstellar objects in the Solar System, based on calculated orbital characteristics, and presented several centaur candidates such as 2017 SV13 and 2018 TL6. Astronomers have released the first image of only the second interstellar object we've ever seen passing through the solar system.And it's almost certainly a comet. Formally designated 1I/2017 U1, it was discovered by Robert Weryk using the Pan-STARRS telescope at Haleakalā Observatory, Hawaii, on 19 October 2017, 40 days after it passed its closest point to the Sun on 9 September. Another interstellar object may be passing through our solar system The Minor Planet Center have keyed in on a recently identified comet Object C/2019 Q4 appears to … Interstellar objects entering the solar system are a bit like buses, you wait centuries for one to turn up and then two come (in astronomical terms) more or less at once. Amir Siraj and Avi Loeb have predicted that the Vera C. Rubin Observatory will be capable of detecting an anisotropy in the distribution of interstellar objects due to the Sun's motion relative to the Local Standard of Rest and identify the characteristic ejection speed of interstellar objects from their parent stars. The first, a cigar-shaped object called Oumuamua, took … A visitor from interstellar space has likely been spotted in our solar system for the first time ever. The comet was discovered with a 0.65-meter telescope, built by Borisov himself. These can vary widely in velocity and directionality.

An interstellar object is an astronomical object (such as an asteroid, a comet, or a rogue planet, but not a star) in interstellar space that is not gravitationally bound to a star. That would make it only the second interstellar visitor ever known to have reached the Solar System. "[10], Current models of Oort cloud formation predict that more comets are ejected into interstellar space than are retained in the Oort cloud, with estimates varying from 3 to 100 times as many. Large interstellar visitors like asteroids and comets were detected the first time in the solar system in 2017 (1I/'Oumuamua) and 2019 (2I/Borisov) and are expected to be detected more frequently with new telescopes, e.g. The Interstellar Comet Dust Has The Secret Of The Solar System Posted by Steven Anderson January 15, 2021 A simple trail of the interstellar dust can take us back to the origin of the solar system. [2] A more recent estimate by David C. Jewitt and colleagues, following the detection of 'Oumuamua, predicts that "The steady-state population of similar, ~100 m scale interstellar objects inside the orbit of Neptune is ~1×104, each with a residence time of ~10 years. The first, a cigar-shaped object called Oumuamua, took the … Harvard astronomers suggest that matter—and potentially dormant spores—can be exchanged across vast distances. [4], Astronomers estimate that several interstellar objects of extrasolar origin (like ʻOumuamua) pass inside the orbit of Earth each year,[5] and that 10,000 are passing inside the orbit of Neptune on any given day. 'Oumuamua is the first object ever seen in our solar system that is known to have originated elsewhere. Enter Oumuamua — the 2017 high speed object that could have been an extraterrestrial starship passing through our solar system at outrageous speed (about 196,000 miles per hour): According to one report from Yahoo! [12][13][14]. [51][52][53][54], With current space technology, close visits and orbital missions are challenging due to their high speeds, though not impossible.[55]. Credits: European Southern Observatory / M. Kornmesser In November 2017, scientists pointed NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope toward the object known as 'Oumuamua — the first known interstellar object to visit our solar system. From a galaxy far, far away… Astronomers believe a comet zooming in Earth's direction could be the second interstellar object ever spotted in the solar system, according to reports Thursday. Both objects arrived in our solar system with hyperbolic orbits, but their origins — aside from being interstellar — remained unclear. © 2019 CBS Interactive Inc. All Rights Reserved. This would make it notably faster than ʻOumuamua which was 26.3 km/s when outside the Solar System. The object has a retrograde orbit. But most scientists think the idea that we spotted alien technology in our solar system is a long shot. An eccentricity slightly above 1.0 can be achieved when encountering with planets, and this has happened before with the previous record holder, C/1980 E1. The observations showed that it follows a strongly hyperbolic trajectory around the Sun at a speed greater than the solar escape velocity, in turn meaning that it is not gravitationally bound to the Solar System and likely to be an interstellar object. The discovery of 'Oumuamua marks the first time an interstellar object was confirmed in our solar system. They both possess significant hyperbolic excess velocity, indicating they did not originate in the Solar System. Meet the second confirmed interstellar object to enter our solar system The comet, 2I/Borisov, comes from another planetary system, but bears a … Copyright © 2021 CBS Interactive Inc. All rights reserved. On 8 January 2014, a bolide which has been identified by Loeb and Siraj as a potentially interstellar object originating from an unbound hyperbolic orbit exploded in the atmosphere over northern Papua New Guinea. An image of 2I/Borisov obtained using the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph on the Gemini North Telescope on Hawaii's Maunakea. A rare object entered our solar system last month and now astronomers have confirmed it is the second interstellar comet ever detected. WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The second interstellar object ever spotted passing through the solar system is a comet that appears quite like those formed in our neighborhood of the cosmos, providing fresh evidence that other planetary systems may be very similar to our own. "Oumuamua is a cigar-shaped, 800-meter long asteroid , red in color, with a surface similar to comets and organic-rich asteroids found elsewhere in our solar system, according to the astronomers. At first, astronomers thought the rapidly … ʻOumuamua has an eccentricity of 1.199, which was the highest eccentricity ever observed for any object in the Solar System by a wide margin prior to the discovery of comet 2I/Borisov in August 2019. Detection of these objects along the continuum of sizes is, however, not evident (see Figure). [18][19] They identified centaur candidates, such as 2017 SV13 and 2018 TL6, as captured interstellar objects that could be visited by dedicated missions. Observations from the group revealed it has an extremely hyperbolic orbit — meaning it is moving too fast to orbit the sun — confirming its origin as interstellar. Meteorite Fragment Points to Missing Dwarf Planet in Early Solar System NASA: Asteroid Could Still Hit Earth in 2068 Interstellar Object 'Oumuamua Might Be a Hydrogen Iceberg Using observations from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based observatories, an international team of scientists has confirmed 'Oumuamua (oh-MOO-ah-MOO-ah), the first known interstellar object to travel through our solar system, got an unexpected boost in speed and shift in trajectory as it passed through the inner solar system last year. Oumuamua is a cylinder-shaped interstellar object that travelled through the Solar System in 2017. [7] Until the discovery of 'Oumuamua, the fact that no comet with a speed greater than the Sun's escape velocity[8] had been observed was used to place upper limits to their density in interstellar space. The comet is still headed towards Earth, but we don't need to worry about it colliding — it won't get any closer than 190 million miles, according to NASA's JPL. Discovery. Such a process was initiated in the early 1980s when C/1980 E1, initially gravitationally bound to the Sun, passed near Jupiter and was accelerated sufficiently to reach escape velocity from the Solar System. If So Then 'Planet 9' Could Be One Of Many Hidden Planets In Our Solar System", "Did the Sun have an early binary companion? It's also unlike any other asteroid we've seen before. [25] The smallest interstellar dust particles are filtered out of the solar system by electromagnetic forces, while the largest ones are too sparse to obtain good statistics from in situ spacecraft detectors. [9] Comets Machholz 1 and Hyakutake C/1996 B2 are possible examples of such comets. The lack of cometary activity from ʻOumuamua suggests an origin from the inner regions of whatever stellar system it came from, losing all surface volatiles within the frost line, much like the rocky asteroids, extinct comets and damocloids we know from the Solar System. [33][34] After its interstellar nature was confirmed, it was renamed to 1I/ʻOumuamua – "1" because it is the first such object to be discovered, "I" for interstellar, and "'Oumuamua" is a Hawaiian word meaning "a messenger from afar arriving first".[35]. If confirmed, this would be second interstellar object ever identified, with … A braham 'Avi' Loeb, a Professor of Science at Harvard University, has declared that the discovery of the interstellar object 'Oumuamua' three years ago can confirm that our Solar System … The verdict is in: after a thorough round of observations, the comet suspected of being an interstellar alien has been ratified. It was given the name "2I/Borisov" on Tuesday, but researchers have no idea where it came from. [41][42], The object was discovered on 30 August 2019 at MARGO, Nauchnyy, Crimea by Gennadiy Borisov using his custom-built 0.65-meter telescope. The International Astronomical Union confirmed that the object formally known as C/2019 Q4 (Borisov) is indeed from another solar system, giving it … Interstellar visitors in the Solar System cover the whole range of sizes - from kilometer large objects down to submicron particles. ", "The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) obtains the visible spectrum of C/2019 Q4 (Borisov), the first confirmed interstellar comet", "Visible and near-infrared observations of interstellar comet 2I/Borisov with the 10.4-m GTC and the 3.6-m TNG telescopes", "MPEC 2019-S72 : 2I/Borisov=C/2019 Q4 (Borisov)", "ATel#1349: Multiple Outbursts of Interstellar Comet 2I/Borisov", "Did a Meteor from Another Star Strike Earth in 2014", "Detecting Interstellar Objects through Stellar Occultations", "A real-time search for interstellar impacts on the moon", "Radio Flares from Collisions of Neutron Stars with Interstellar Asteroids", "A Telescope Orbiting the Moon Could Spy 1 Interstellar Visitor Per Year", "European Comet Interceptor Could Visit an Interstellar Object", C/1680 V1 (Great Comet of 1680, Kirsch's Comet, Newton's Comet), C/1743 X1 (Great Comet of 1744, Comet Klinkenberg-Chéseaux), List of interstellar and circumstellar molecules, Exoplanetary Circumstellar Environments and Disk Explorer, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Interstellar_object&oldid=998207390, Short description is different from Wikidata, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, This page was last edited on 4 January 2021, at 08:40. This term can also be applied to an object that is on an interstellar trajectory but is temporarily passing close to a star, such as certain asteroids and comets (including exocomets[1][2]). It is possible for objects orbiting a star to be ejected due to interaction with a third massive body, thereby becoming interstellar objects. The second interstellar object on record has visited our solar system, according to astronomical observations made in recent week. Scientists will spend the next few months studying the comet before it returns to the vastness of space. "After that, it will only be observable with larger professional telescopes through October 2020.". [2] Other simulations suggest that 90–99% of comets are ejected. The first interstellar object to enter the solar system is not an alien spaceship , astronomers said in a new study - but its exact nature remains a mystery (artist's impression pictured) A comet that may be coming from outside our solar system has been discovered. In 2018, our solar system ran into an object lost in interstellar space. The IAU Working Group for Small Body Nomenclature kept the name Borisov, giving the comet the interstellar designation of 2I/Borisov. [21] In addition, comet C/2018 V1 (Machholz-Fujikawa-Iwamoto) has a non-negligible probability (0.726) of having an extrasolar provenance although an origin in the Oort cloud cannot be excluded. [6], If interstellar comets exist, they must occasionally pass through the inner Solar System. Astronomers recently scrambled to observe an intriguing asteroid that zipped through the solar system on a steep trajectory from interstellar space—the first confirmed object from another star. September 24, 2019 / 3:51 PM News, "A Harvard professor believes that we were visited by an alien object … The … The first confirmed object from another star to visit our solar system, this interstellar interloper appears to be a rocky, cigar-shaped object with a somewhat reddish hue. [44][45][46] Also, interstellar dust and meteoroids carry with them valuable information from their parent systems. [23] The detection of ʻOumuamua crossing the inner Solar System confirms the possibility of a material link with exoplanetary systems. The first interstellar object to be discovered in the Solar System was 1I/ʻOumuamua in 2017. Some estimates suggest that at least one interstellar object should be in our Solar System at any given time, while the upcoming Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) plans to … An interstellar object is an astronomical object (such as an asteroid, a comet, or a rogue planet, but not a star) in interstellar space that is not gravitationally bound to a star. The universe can … It appears to be a comet from another star system 'Oumuamua, shown in this artist's illustration, became the first known interstellar object to visit the solar system when it was spotted in 2017. ), An interstellar comet can probably, on rare occasions, be captured into a heliocentric orbit while passing through the Solar System. "The high velocity indicates not only that the object likely originated from outside our solar system, but also that it will leave and head back to interstellar space.". The first asteroid observed visiting our Solar System from elsewhere isn't just unusual in its interstellar origin.. A second candidate interstellar visitor, a comet designated C/2019 Q4 … Computer simulations show that Jupiter is the only planet massive enough to capture one, and that this can be expected to occur once every sixty million years. Astronomers spot another interstellar asteroid in our solar system. Now another may be inbound, but this time it's been spotted ahead of time. The higher the eccentricity, the more elliptical the orbit. Astronomers weren't given that necessary time to study the first-ever interstellar object, 1I/'Oumuamua, when it was discovered leaving our solar system in 2017. [32] It was initially named C/2017 U1 because it was assumed to be a comet, and was renamed to A/2017 U1 after no cometary activity was found on October 25. Due to present observational difficulties, an interstellar object can usually only be detected if it passes through the Solar System, where it can be distinguished by its strongly hyperbolic trajectory and hyperbolic excess velocity of more than a few km/s, proving that it is not gravitationally bound to the Sun. (source: https://t.co/vkYXrK6KBC) pic.twitter.com/WObsGj3HJH. Another interstellar object may be passing through our solar system The Minor Planet Center have keyed in on a recently identified comet Object C/2019 Q4 appears to … As of Thursday, the … [9] Other analyses, of data from LINEAR, set the upper limit at 4.5×10−4/AU3, or 1012 (1 trillion) comets per cubic parsec. [1] They would approach the Solar System with random velocities, mostly from the direction of the constellation Hercules because the Solar System is moving in that direction, called the solar apex. 5. "The solar system acts as a gravitational 'fishing net' that contains thousands of bound interstellar objects of this size at any given time. [2][16] In contrast, gravitationally bound objects follow elliptic orbits around the Sun. The second was 2I/Borisov in 2019. This is only a suggestion, as ʻOumuamua might very well have lost all surface volatiles to eons of cosmic radiation exposure in interstellar space, developing a thick crust layer after it was expelled from its parent system. A paper by Torbett indicated that the density was no more than 1013 (10 trillion) comets per cubic parsec. [49] These are all orbiting the Sun, but may have been captured in the distant past. In 2018, our solar system ran into an object lost in interstellar space. Provisional designations for interstellar objects will be handled using the C/ or A/ prefix (comet or asteroid), as appropriate. Oumuamua was the first known object to visit from beyond the solar system. That means 2015 BZ509 moves around the sun in the opposite direction of most other bodies in the solar system. Enter Oumuamua — the 2017 high speed object that could have been an extraterrestrial starship passing through our solar system at outrageous speed (about 196,000 miles per hour): According to one report from Yahoo! This term can also be applied to an object that is on an interstellar trajectory but is temporarily passing close to a star, such as certain asteroids and comets (including exocomets ). A rare object entered our solar system last month and now astronomers have confirmed it is the second interstellar comet ever detected. That would make it only the second interstellar visitor ever known to have reached the Solar System. On 13 September 2019, the Gran Telescopio Canarias obtained a low-resolution visible spectrum of 2I/Borisov that revealed that this object has a surface composition not too different from that found in typical Oort Cloud comets.

A humble Mexican illegal immigrant, Miguel Chavez, agrees to the task in exchange for his family's safety. As an unexpected friendship develops between Nick and Miguel, and as Nick confronts a secret that has haunted him since childhood, he is forced to contend with a part of himself he'd lost in the rough-and-tumble pursuit of his mission. As their investigation reaches a deadly climax, Nick must reassess what he thought he knew about courage, justice and loyalty. Informed by the author's 26 years as a federal agent, this gripping drama takes a nuanced perspective on illegal immigration. About the Author: Bruce Kading has 26 years of experience as a special agent with the federal government, employed by the FBI, INS, and EPA.
