A few weeks ago I received a secret invitation to a secret event… by Ben and Jerry's. Now, me being me, I made sure to ask whether there would be vegan food available, since, you know, I write a vegan blog! I was assured that yes, there would be, and from then on I had to keep my mouth shut while my tummy rumbled, and my brain tried to figure out which flavours would be launched.
Roll on Wednesday 6th September 2017. The d-date…9am, and the news dropped via Ben and Jerry's Twitter account. The Twittersphere went nuts! And likely so. I then spent the whole day at work dreaming of the event coming up that evening – I knew the flavours now, but what would they taste like, and where could I get them from?!
A wonderful lady from Ben and Jerry's flavour team explained to us what the past 4 years working on the project had meant to her. Yes, it took them 4 years to perfect this! This wasn't some knee-jerk, throw it on the market cause vegan is trendy kind of thing. Nope. 4 years of planning, flavour and recipe development to make sure that a quality product was going to be hitting the shelves. If something didn't taste just right and didn't meet the brand identity and customer perception, it was re-developed or scrapped.
Then it was time to give the non-dairy ice cream a try!
So which flavours were able to be developed well enough to be released as vegan friendly, non-dairy options for the UK market? There are 3 flavours released initially, but a little birdie has told me that there may be a few new flavours in the future.
Now, I wasn't really into Chunky Monkey when I was not vegan. I wasn't too into nuts, but this, this I loved. I love walnuts, and bananas, and more importantly, chocolate, so I was excited to give this a try.
The vegan chunky monkey is a combo of banana ice cream, walnuts, and dark chocolate chunks. This ice cream contains banana puree instead of banana flavouring, which makes me happy – the banana flavour tastes more like actual, ripe bananas, and not banana antibiotics!!
I've never been keen on peanut butter, or peanut flavoured things, so I was a little wary of this one, I must say!
However, I enjoyed Ben & Jerry's Non-Dairy peanut butter cookie ice cream. It's a great combo of cookies and cream ice cream (think, Oreos), combined with swirls of crunchy peanut butter. These two elements really work together. And for those of you who are mad keen on peanut butter, meet your new favourite ice cream!
This was my favourite, it must be said!
I used to absolutely love Ben & Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream when I wasn't vegan, and this brings it all back. Really delicious, fudgy, vegan brownie from Ben & Jerry's brownie supplier Greyston Bakery, combined with chocolate ice cream. Heck yes.
THIS (Ben & Jerry's non dairy chocolate fudge brownie) MAKES ME HAPPY!
And did you know that Greyston Bakery, who supply the brownies, is a leading social enterprise? It's founded by Bernie Glassman, a zen buddhist, and he set the company up to help individuals in the South Yonkers area of New York to give them the experience, resources, and skills to lift them out of poverty. They offer an olive branch to those who need help, regardless of background or work history, including those who have served in prison.
Ben and Jerry's non-dairy, vegan ice cream is made with almonds, rather than soy.
It's certified as vegan by Vegan Action in the US, but not currently by The Vegan Society here in the UK.
Non-dairy Ben and Jerry's is currently available to buy in Tesco stores, with the range rolling out to other supermarkets from September 2017 onwards.
Have you tried Ben & Jerry's vegan ice cream range yet?
Which vegan friendly flavours would you like to see released next?
Can you imagine a vegan Phish food? That would be amazing. It was one of my absolute faves before I went vegan!
I read about this on Twitter and got really excited too! I'm not vegan but my sister is allergic to dairy and I try not to eat too much of it either. I really want to try that chocolate brownie one! The event sounds amazing – who wouldn't love an evening filled with ice cream?!
Awwww I am SO insanely excited to try vegan ben & jerrys!! although I would absolutely love a vegan version of phishfood, because that was always my ultimate favourite!
You're so lucky you were invited to this, that's amazing!
Dairy free Phish Food would be the dream. I am so excited to get my hands on these.

Q: Find max value and Drop row based on time python I am trying to find the maximum value of precip based on the station column and the hour of the valid column. I have no workable code as I've been trying this forever and have found no even close to working solution.
Here is the dataframe I am working with
station
valid
precip

A: You need to group by station and hour and get the idxmax, then slice:
df['valid'] = pd.to_datetime(df['valid'])
df.loc[df.groupby(['station', df['valid'].dt.hour])['precip'].idxmax()]
output:
station valid precip
2 1V4 2022-02-23 07:58:00 0.4
4 1V4 2022-02-23 08:51:00 0.6
7 BTV 2022-02-23 07:59:00 0.3
10 BTV 2022-02-23 08:29:00 0.3
A: This will allow you to group by the hour and the station
df1['Hour'] = pd.to_datetime(df['valid'], infer_datetime_format=True).dt.hour
df1['precip_max'] = df1.groupby(['station', 'Hour'])['precip'].transform('max')
df1.loc[df['precip'] == df['precip_max']]

keelanelli in Tamil (Phyllanthus niruri) is a small herbal tropical plant commonly found in South India which is most preferred herbal medicine for curing jaundice.
The common names of this herb are Amla, Chanca Piedra, Kidney Stone Tree, Phyllanthus and Quebra Pedra. It belongs to the family Euphorbiaceae, well known for its medicinal properties.
Keelanelli is used in Indian medicine for curing various problems in the stomach, liver, kidney. The whole plant is used as medicine, including its roots, leaves, and fruits. The fruits are useful for the treatment of tubercular ulcers, wounds, sores, scabies and ringworm.
The fresh leaf believed to be an excellent remedy for jaundice.
Add some cardamom to keelanelli leaves, along with a spoon of turmeric powder. Add an onion to it and grind the mixture. Mix this with a glass of milk or buttermilk and consume it twice a day – morning (on empty stomach) and night.
Grind keelanelli root with 2 teaspoons of gingelly (sesame) oil, along with cumin and milk. This paste can be applied to the head to gradually reduce fever.
Add pepper to 30 grams of keelanelli leaves. Boil it with 3 cups of water until the liquid is reduced to 1 cup. Consumption of this juice will help to heal burns of the skin.
Keelanelli has gained worldwide popularity due to its effect against Hepatitis-B. It is an important plant in Indian medicine, and it has also been used in Brazil and Peru as a herbal remedy for kidney stones.
One of the herbal plants in pharmacology is meniran. Stimuno for toddlers/children and adults there are contraindications, do not expect to be drunk by pregnant women, breastfeeding women, patients with hypersensitivity against meniran plants (Phyllanthus niruri) and patients suffering from autoimmune diseases. | {

Golden State's DeMarcus Cousins unlikely to return this postseason
Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus Cousins reacts after falling to the floor during the first half of Game 2 of a first-round NBA basketball playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers in Oakland, Calif., on Monday.
OAKLAND, Calif. >> Center DeMarcus Cousins is unlikely to return this postseason for the Golden State Warriors yet won't require surgery on his torn left quadriceps muscle.
Coach Steve Kerr has named Andrew Bogut as his starter in place of Cousins for Game 3 Thursday night of the team's first-round playoff series against the Clippers in Los Angeles.
Playing in just his second career postseason game after a nine-year wait, the 28-year-old Cousins went down in the first quarter of a 135-131 Game 2 loss Monday night. He fell in front of the Golden State bench after swiping a ball from Patrick Beverley in the back court. Cousins immediately grabbed at his left quad then hobbled to the locker room at the 8:09 mark.
The tear was revealed by an MRI exam Tuesday.

TAJIKISTAN: Conscientious objection "a major crime"?
Jehovah's Witness conscientious objector Jovidon Bobojonov has been held since October 2019 by the military despite offering to do alternative civilian service, even though the government claimed in March 2019 to the UN Human Rights Committee that an alternative service law is being prepared.

Prosecutors are seeking 18 years' jail for Sadriddin Mulloyev at his Dushanbe trial for membership of Muslim movement Tabligh Jamaat. Jehovah's Witness Shamil Khakimov, who is 68, failed to overturn his seven and a half-year strict regime jail term. Prison authorities still deny him a Bible. Protestant Pastor Bakhrom Kholmatov was freed on 17 December months before the end of his three-year jail term. However, an associated church in Konibodom remains closed after the regime forcibly closed it in 2017 after raiding and torturing church members, as well as firing them from their jobs.
TAJIKISTAN: Pensioner jailed until August 2026
In a closed hearing in prison, a judge in Khujand on 10 September jailed 68-year-old Jehovah's Witness Shamil Khakimov for seven years, six months in strict regime custody for "inciting religious hatred". On release in August 2026, aged 74, Khakimov would be banned from religious activity until August 2029. "I am guilty of nothing," he told the court and is expected to appeal.
TAJIKISTAN: Pensioner faces up to 10 years' imprisonment
The criminal trial of 68-year-old Jehovah's Witness Shamil Khakimov in Khujand resumes on 19 August. He faces up to 10 years' imprisonment for "inciting religious hatred", charges he denies. Prosecutors claim materials confiscated from him and others contained "features of extremist activity". The investigation revealed a 2016 state "expert analysis" by three Imams claiming the distribution of a Tajik Bible translation causes "confrontation".
TAJIKISTAN: Detention extended, no Bible reading allowed
A Khujand court has extended Jehovah's Witness pensioner Shamil Khakimov's pre-trial detention for another month. His "crime", for which he was arrested in February, seems to be that he is thought to lead Khujand's Jehovah's Witness community. Against international human rights standards, he is not allowed to read his Bible.
TAJIKISTAN: Jailed, awaiting trial on "incitement" charges
Despite recent surgery, retired widower, Jehovah's Witness Shamil Khakimov, is in pre-trial detention in Khujand under criminal investigation for "inciting religious hatred". If tried and convicted he faces five to ten years' imprisonment. His arrest followed widespread raids, interrogations and torture of local Jehovah's Witnesses.
TAJIKISTAN: Raid, torture, interrogations, fines, calendars destroyed
Religious communities including Jehovah's Witnesses meeting for worship continue to be raided, with interrogations lasting between 20 minutes and 14 hours and in some cases involving torture. Other religious communities also face renewed questioning, especially on finances, and whether children under the age of 10 attend meetings.
TAJIKISTAN: Killed prisoners denied Muslim funerals
Around 50 prisoners killed in suppressing a Khujand Labour Camp riot were denied religious funerals. Officials banned washing of bodies or any Islamic prayers. Sugd Police Deputy Head claimed statements that families were not allowed to bury their dead according to Muslim rites were untrue. "Whoever says that is lying!"
TAJIKISTAN: Arrest not pardon follows "repentance"
Secret police arrested Mukhtadi Abdulkodyrov for being a Salafi Muslim, two days after his return to Tajikistan from Saudi Arabia. He had written a letter of "repentance". Police opened a criminal case against Jehovah's Witness Mujibahon Isanova for complaining about a teacher's bullying of her eight-year-old son.
TAJIKISTAN: Hijab-wearing and beards ban continues
Tajikistan continues beard and hijab-wearing bans, and has forced one couple to divorce. Police set up a roadblock to enforce the bans, which are also been enforced in schools and universities. Officials have refused to give Forum 18 a legal reason for the bans. | {

A: You should use NestedScrollView while working with CoordinatorLayout.. and you are utilising layout behaviour of CoordinatorLayout. Like below..
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
....
...>
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
....>
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<NestedScrollView
android:id="@+id/al_svMainScroll"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
<!-- Your scrollring layout will go here -->
</NestedScrollView>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

Osnat Malka completed her Ph.D studies in the Department of Zoology at Tel Aviv University and obtained a M.Sc. in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Ben Gurion University after graduating from the Department of Chemistry at Ben Gurion University. Using functional and evolutionary genomics, she studies insect-plant interactions and more specifically how plant secondary metabolites affect the herbivores resistance mechanisms. One of her objectives is to develop genomic, metabolomic and behavioral experimental approaches to understand how B. tabaci overcomes the plant's defense system. She is also exploring the evolution of social behaviors of honeybees using an integrative approach encompassing genomics and analytical chemistry. She collaborates with researchers from various disciplines with an emphasis on plant insect interactions. | {

NOTE: The Internet isn't very good this year so I've been relying on sporadic texts from Doug to get updates on the work of the team. (We've even had trouble on our end turning that content into posts on the missions trip blog.) Thank you for your prayers for the team. The week has gone really well and they have accomplished a lot! | {

BOOST REVENUE WITH VIRTUAL CURRENCY
A widely used video game monetization strategy is virtual currency. Virtual currencies are digital-only currencies gamers use to make transactions online.
With virtual currency, developers can create a virtual economy in their game, allowing players to purchase and sell digital goods. Players can acquire virtual currency in one of two ways — by purchasing it with real money, or by earning it through the game.
Virtual currency is an effective and creative way to deepen player engagement and grow a game's revenue, no matter if the game is premium or free-to-play. How it is implemented and sold depends on audience preferences, game design, backend functionality, and regional limitations.
THE LORD OF THE RINGS ONLINE TURNAROUND
When Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) launched, it was a typical subscription-based MMORPG. Gamers paid $15 a month to explore Middle-Earth or bought a full year subscription at discount price.
But, as subscription fees began to dwindle, Turbine (the owner of LOTRO prior to current owners Standing Stone Games), needed to find a new way to boost revenue.
They made the decision to shift their business model, letting gamers download and play the game for free while introducing in-game goods that could be purchased with virtual currency. Gamers could earn the virtual currency through game rewards, or purchase it directly with cash.
The new model resulted in a substantial increase in active players, and overall game revenue through the built-in game store. LOTRO then introduced a premium subscription, which added revenue and removed restrictions on the amount of virtual currency, creating even more opportunities for gamers and further boosting game revenue.
SMITE KEEPS PLAYERS HOOKED WITH COMPLEX VIRTUAL ECONOMY
Smite, Hi-Rez Studios third-person multiplayer online battle arena, is a free-to-play game that offers multiple types of virtual currency.
Smite's Favor, Gems and Fantasy points can be earned in a variety of ways. For example, completing the basic tutorial earns 100 Favor, while Fantasy points can be earned by participating in special events. Gems can also be earned in the game, or purchased in an online store. Each of these currencies offers different levels of access to the gods and Cosmetic items.
Another Smite currency, Gems, is used to purchase and upgrade items (objects and artifacts that give players special abilities) for SMITE matches. Players start with a certain amount of Gems and, as in the case of the other currencies, can acquire more through the game.
With multiple currencies and a complex economy for earning and selling and making purchases, Smite offers players a challenging and addictive game experience.
ONE VIRTUAL CURRENCY FOR MULTIPLE GAMES
Virtual currencies are often developed for a specific game but, in recent years, publishers have introduced a single virtual currency that can be used across multiple games.
One example is NCoin, a virtual currency from publisher NCSoft. NCoin can be purchased directly at the company's website, through the gamer's account. The gamer can then use NCoin to purchase virtual items in many NCSoft games, including Aion, Lineage II, and Blade & Soul — there's even a separate store where gamers can purchase virtual goods with NCoin.
By using a single currency for multiple games, game creators can expand the value and reach of virtual currency and make it easier to attract and retain players across titles.
IMPLEMENTING VIRTUAL CURRENCY
Developers can explore virtual currency as an additional revenue stream. It's a well-known model, one most gamers trust and are comfortable participating in.
The good news is that creating virtual currency — and the goods that are bought and sold with it — is an enriching process; it adds another dimension by introducing an in-game economy. Yet, developing the backend system to support an in-game economy is time-consuming and requires significant resources.

The New York fashion week It just started and it is already giving us wonderful things, Givenchy parade has marked an apotheosis home with a sublime collection and more than one anecdote. The model Candice Swanepoel had a small accident in the middle of the catwalk and you It passed Bill on his knees, with included blood.
The catwalk was nothing simple, with a steps from wood in the middle and a concrete floor it was together with maxi-long shoelaces shoes a very complex terrain for the models and pretty bad became Victoria's Secret angel. Several attendees to the parade had to get up to help at the Nice model but she rose and transmitted to all that was phenomenal.
But she wasn't the only one who fell in this parade, the model POOJA Mor It fell by those wooden steps that were placed in the Center. All this does more than humanizing the models and to show that they are not as perfect as many people think, and that the beautiful girls can also make mistakes. | {

It's 4600. You can register for it on their official website. In India ISTQB comes under ITB (Indian Testing Board). And yes if you have knowledge and also have this certificate it will be an added advantage for you.
can you please post the exception details? without details it is hard to say.
Hi Joseph, Put break points in the places where you are getting exceptions and try to debug each one of the attribute level . | {

Quvdlugiarsuaq
Variations: Auseq
Tales from Greenland, notably Aasiaat, tell of a gigantic maggot called Quvdlugiarsuaq. It is so big that the legend of Aqigsiaq tells of a dwelling place that survived an entire winter on the blubber of one quvdlugiarsuaq.
The Auseq is a similar creature described as a giant caterpillar. It is dangerous to humans.

Variations: Qinyuan-bird, Yuanyuan, Zhiyuan
Mount Kunlun is the Pillar of Heaven, a place of great energy and endowed of a fiery brilliant aura. Four rivers – Black, Red, Yellow, and Oceanic – flow from Mount Kunlun, and the mountain is administered by the god Luwu, or the Queen Mother of the West Xi-Wangmu in later texts.
Many wonderful birds and beasts dwell on Mount Kunlun, including the Qinyuan or Qinyuan-bird. It looks like a bee, but is the size of a mandarin duck. Its sting is venomous enough to kill other animals and to wither trees.
Despite the classification as a "bird", Mathieu believes it to be simply a large stinging insect.

Qasoǵonaǵa
Variations: Gasogonaga, Kasogonagá, Kasogongá, QasoGonaGa; Lightning; Owner of Storms/Lightning
For the Toba of Argentina, lighning takes the form of a small, hairy creature called Qasoǵonaǵa, the Owner of Storms. It is an anteater, or perhaps an elephant, with a long snout, long rainbow-colored hair, and four tiny feet. Qasoǵonaǵa can also appear in human form, retaining a small head and shaggy body. As Qasoǵonaǵa has been referred to by both male and female pronouns, there are probably more than one of these beings.
Qasoǵonaǵa, as the Owner of Storms, lives in the skies and is responsible for storms and other meteorological conditions. Lightning comes out of its mouth, while its angry roars become thunder. It is responsible for rain, or lack thereof.
While Qasoǵonaǵa may be a mighty force of nature, it can be quite friendly and grateful for help granted it by the Toba. Often a Qasoǵonaǵa falls to the earth, and has to be returned there by human intervention, as it is too small to return there on its own. In such cases a bonfire must be built, and Qasoǵonaǵa placed on top before it is ignited. The rising smoke will carry Qasoǵonaǵa back into the sky, and the happy anteater will reward its benefactor with powerful shamanic powers. Qasoǵonaǵa will also cause or stop torrential rain if its helper requests it.

Qiongqi
Variations: Thoroughly-Odd, Divine Dog
Two versions of the Qiongqi, or "Thoroughly-Odd", are described in the Guideways. The first variant of this Chinese creature is from Mount Gui, and resembles an ox with the quills of a hedgehog, and it howls like a dog. The second lives in the Land of the Demon People, and is a winged tiger. A third variety, referred to as a "divine dog", is human with a dog's head.
Qiongqi are carnivorous, and devour their prey head or feet first. They feed on people who wear their hair long, making them a particular threat to shamans and demons. They are evil creatures who devour the loyal and feed the rebellious, but they also eat insect poison.
Qiongqi has also appeared as the son of the thearch Lesser-Brilliance in Zuo's Narratives, as the offspring of the Northern Desert Wind in Master of Huainan, and one of twelve divinities invoked in the Grand Exorcism.
China, Forest and Mountain, Mammals, Q
Chinese mythology, Mammalian folklore
Variations: Quiquern
The Qiqirn is a huge dog of Inuit folklore. It is hairless except for its mouth, feet, and ear and tail tips. The mere presence of a qiqirn around men or dogs causes them to suffer fits, a state which ends only when the qiqirn leaves. However, the qiqirn is also extremely scared of humans, and will run away if an angakoq sees it.
Merkur suggests that the "fits" induced by the qiqirn's presence may be a symbolic reference to shamanic initiation. It shares this feature with the initiatory bear spirit of Baffin Island.
In the Second Jungle Book, the qiqirn – as Quiquern – appears in a snowstorm as an enormous, toothless, and hairless dog, with two heads and eight pairs of legs. He leads two Inuit hunters towards more fruitful lands, and proves to be two sled dogs tied together.

This mint, custom bungalow was built thinking of everything including wheel chair accessibility. It is an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings in the kitchen, dining, and living room area with hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen is enormous with an island and tons of extra cabinets/counter space. Having a main floor laundry room with a sink and more cabinet space is great for convenience and ease. All the bedrooms in the home are very big and functional. In the basement, there is another full kitchen, dining, and laundry area for the option of having adult children or parents living at home with their own self contained amenities. The rumpus room is huge with a wet bar. There is a separate entrance from the basement to the garage. This unique, triple garage (24×32) was very well thought out and is fully insulated, finished, and heated with an extra workshop/toy storage area (8×9). There is no yard for this property so low maintenance with tons of parking as well as RV parking. | {

Hollins Grundy is a very popular school within the local community. Information on this page will be useful if you would like a place at the school for your child.
Admissions to Reception class are dealt with by Bury Local Authority Children's Services Admissions team. For all other year groups please contact the school directly.
Children with Statements of Special Educational Needs will be given a place at the school named on their statement.
Children in public care (Looked After Children) and previously looked after children. Previously looked after children are children who were looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a residence order or special guardianship order.
Children who will have an older brother or sister in the school in September 2013. For this purpose, a brother or sister may be a full or step-brother or a full or step-sister, living at the same address, at the time of admission.
If there is over-subscription in any category, places will be offered using a straight line distance measurement from home to school. The distance will be measured using the Local Authority's computerised mapping system, which measures from the address point of the home property to the address point of the school as defined by Bury Council's LLPG (Local Land and Property Gazetteer).
Where the final place in a year group can be taken by two or more children living an equal distance from the school, (for example two children living in the same block of flats) the Local Authority will then use random allocation to decide which of the children can be offered a place.
Where a child has parents with shared responsibility and lives with each parent for part of the week, the home address will be decided by using the name & address of the parent/carer to whom the Child Benefit payment is paid.
If there is a situation where only one place is available and the next children to be offered are twins or triplets, both twins or the three triplets will be offered places as a permitted exception to class size regulations.
1st, 2nd and 3rd preferences for all primary schools in Bury will be considered equally.
If you wish to give reasons for your preferences you may do so. However, parents should note that the criteria given above are the criteria which will be used to offer places.
Parents of children who are admitted to the school before they are of compulsory school age can defer their child's entry until later in the school year. Where entry is deferred, the school will hold a place for that child and not offer it to another child. A parent cannot defer entry beyond the beginning of the term after the child's fifth birthday, nor beyond the academic year for which the original application was accepted. Parents can also request that their child attends on a part time basis until the child reaches compulsory school age.
Parents are only entitled to one appeal for an individual school each year. A re-appeal would only be considered if new evidence became available which could not have been made available at the original appeal hearing. | {

Just on the tails of the last mystery KAL from Rowan came the announcement that another one was starting imminently. Ack, already?! And the crazy thing was that it was another afghan! Holy moly, that's a lot of epic knitting. Despite my aching hands, I was game -- but I still wanted to play my OWN way.
My version of the Martin Storey KAL afghan was somewhat rogue, in that I used only one color instead of 17 and made a different border. It was a lot of work, but the result was very worth it. The pattern is still available for free on the Rowan website.
Both KAL afghans use Rowan's Pure Wool Worsted. An update on the Martin Storey afghan -- my husband uses it as a top blanket every night and it looks pristine. In fact, it still looks blocked, too! I haven't washed it yet, I suppose that will be the big test. I'll let you know.
The new KAL is designed by Kaffe Fassett (download the free patterns here), and is very very popular. We have ~1500 people signed up on Ravelry, which I estimate is around half the participation. Check out the interactive KAL map, too. I'm a map fiend -- give me a map and I'll pore over it respectably.
You'll never believe it, but this pattern is free, too.
Read my Earth Stripe Wrap blog post here.
So, how am I going rogue this time? Well, almost all the way. The pattern is designed so that each square is the same stripe pattern with different colorways. First, I didn't feel like following the colorways, because I wanted my own style. So I looked at the square and used Adobe Illustrator to make up a placement diagram.
I decided to keep the original stripe sequence, and that is probably the only thing similar to the pattern. I might even make a different number of squares, because the afghan isn't quite symmetric like I would prefer (see that left edge versus the right in my placement diagram?).
Mustard is my very favorite color, so I started with it.
Then I went through all my available shades and made one square. I'm not sure if I like all of them, but since the colors are added at the end of the square, it's no big deal to change them.
Just missing the shade Apple here. See all my shades on Ravelry.
I am making 4 of each color and sewing modules together using mattress stitch. This turns out to be very simple, unlike in the Martin Storey KAL, because every stitch matches and is easily 'read' by the stripe changes. Quite fun, actually!
BUT BEWARE of the points where squares meet. I am using one long piece to stitch 2 sides of each module. I found it was hard to do this without leaving a hole at the center point.
I highly recommend you DO NOT weave in the corner ends so that you can tidy up this hole if necessary. Of course, I personally never darn in ends until I have a seam. If you darn ends before mattress stitch, it will be harder to see where you are supposed to sew, and of course, ends always hide better in seams.
1. Long tail cast-on in purl so that the first row is the true RS. Do a Google search for "long tail cast-on in purl" for more info.
2. For the second inc f&b, add a yarn-over between the increases so it's easier to do the M1 on Row 3.
3. Always yarn-over in the row before any M1 -- this will loosen the edge so that it looks more like the decrease side. You have some choices on how to do this. Easiest: Drop the yarnover and pick it up to do the right orientation of M1. Moderate: Yarn-over the same way, then flip the direction to do the right orientation of M1. Experienced: Yarn-over in two different directions, knitting into the front or back of the stitch as appropriate for the right orientation of M1. Moderate to Experienced: backwards loop cast-on the yarn-over in two different directions as per my blog post here.
4. End the square with k3tog, K1 then simply slip the right st over the left st to fasten off. This gives a good pointy finish that allows sewing on either side without messing with the direction of the point.
5. Block those tacos out after a good soak. I usually pin dry and block, but I found I really wanted the ultimate control over the shape of these guys.
WAIT, what am I doing? I don't have time to blog -- I have to knit another square!! One a day is my mantra -- I have 26 done, past the 1/3 mark, yippee.
Would you like to follow my posts?
Dayana, Love your beautiful blog! I'm interested in your roguish thoughts on Kaffe's Jubilee Throw. Colors? Patterns?
Ah! The afghan is looking spectacular, as I knew it would. Tile patterns are so much fun to play with!
Your version is extremely cool, Dayana! I love it! Hear hear for going rogue!!!
It's going to be beautiful Dayana!
I love the way you make these patterns your own! I will watch the outcome with interest. | {

Is there a specific plan and purpose of God for each believer? What can we do to discover God's specific call for each one of us? Is there any distinction between to be called by God and to be chosen by God? What must we do to be chosen by God?
In this book, the author Rogerio L. Clavello, awswers these and other questions about this subject, analysing the different types of responses to the call of God by four distinct individuals, namely, Haran, Nahor, Terah, and Abram, according to the narrative of Genesis 11 and 12.
We will discover that these four men could have reached the fulness of God's call, but the distinct circunstances in their lives and their distinct individual responses concerning the call of God determined different spiritual destinies for each one of them.
We will also learn about some spiritual tests we will have to face and overcome, if we want to move forward in our spiritual journeys towards our destinies in God. | {

In lieu of a demonstration this month we will be having our annual Wood Auction. This once a year event is a great chance to procure wood for a fun Summer of turning. Members donate wood that they would otherwise hate to part with and tools that they no longer use and the items are auctioned off by our esteemed auctioneer Joe McCann. Members and Guests can bid on the items.
Our raffle will not be held this month to give us more time for the Wood Auction.

NICOLE Scherzinger joined some of fashion's biggest names for a glamorous party in Cannes this evening.
The former Pussycat Doll singer attended the de Grisogono bash at Villa des Oliviers in the French town, held during the 71st annual film festival.
Nicole, 39, wore a knee-length black dress with gathered panelling at the skirt and lace inserts showing her tanned skin through the fabric.
With a slick of red lipstick and her hair in a wavy ponytail except for a piece hanging by her face, Nicole looked pretty as she headed into the venue.
She was joined by Paris Hilton, who wore a beaded purple dress and duck egg blue fur shawl as she arrived with fiance Chris Zylka.
The couple - who became engaged in January this year - put on a loved up display on the red carpet, with Chris planting a kiss on his future wife's cheek and lips.
They were joined by a whole host of supermodels including Alessandra Ambrosio and Winnie Harlow.
Alessandra, 37, wore a black plunging gown which featured long, sheer sleeves and cut out diamond detailing at her hip bones.
The dress then fell into a long skirt with train and an obligatory thigh high split.
Winnie also got the split memo, flashing her pins in a red dress which featured a peplum waist detail and off the shoulder neckline.
Victoria Silvstedt, 43, looked angelic in white, with her dress featuring an intricate lace bodice and a column skirt with a slit up the front.
Meanwhile Kimberley Garner wore a black and white lace dress with thin straps.
Doing his bit for men's style, Cheryl's ex husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini wore a black velvet tuxedo jacket with a black shirt and bow tie. | {

Last weekend I introduced a browser extension to ease aircraft registration lookups in FlightMemory. This weekend it gets a couple updates plus a new version which works on Flight Diary, too.
Both versions now will show on the Add Flight page of the respective site. This will only be useful if you're behind in adding flights to your logs (the DoT data is typically 7-10 weeks delayed; January 2015 just came out this week) but the option is there. Click on the icon to populate the field. It will either put the registration number directly into the form for you or pop up an error message box.
And both work on the Edit Flight page, too. For Flight Diary the links are just below the Aircraft Registration field on the page. In this view you must click the registration number to have it populate the form.
Just like before, the data is limited to domestic US operations and carriers required to report to the DoT. It isn't 100% of domestic flights but it is darn close.
The Flight Diary version can be found in the Chrome Store or directly downloaded here.
The FlightMemory version can be found in the Chrome Store or directly downloaded here. Note that the integration on the Add Flight page uses jQuery and I'm not sure how to integrate that into the download for the non-Chrome Store users so that part probably won't work in other browsers.
Still no love for an OpenFlights version, but I keep tinkering in hopes of making it work eventually. | {

Today we're listening to Grouper, the solo project from American musician Liz Harris. She grew up in the Bay Area in a commune, whose younger members called each other "groupers."
Since 2005 Harris has released 11 LPs as Grouper. She uses the trappings of grunge/folk/indie rock and the sound design of ambient music. The product sounds like a distant shoegaze broadcast picked up faintly on a radio. We're playing her 2011 two-part album, A I A, whose parts are called Dream Loss and Alien Observer. We generally try to avoid vocals, but Grouper's are so subtle that we find they don't disrupt focus.
A I A: Dream Loss - Grouper (40m, muted vocals)
Spotify / Apple Music / YouTube Music / Amazon Music
/ Bandcamp / Tidal
A I A: Alien Observer - Grouper (40m, muted vocals)
Have a really nice Thursday. | {

Best for Britain is a civil society campaign, launched on 26 April 2017, to stop Brexit and continue the UK's membership of the European Union (EU). Since 2021, the organisation's aim has changed to encourage greater internationalism rather than an immediate push to rejoin the EU.
Aims
Prior to the finalisation of Brexit, Best for Britain's goal was a democratic way to stop Brexit. Since 2021, Best for Britain aims to keep the UK open to EU membership in the future, but in the short term aims at re-engagement with Europe, internationalist policies, and cooperation with business. As part of the organisation's relaunch in April 2021, chief executive Naomi Smith wrote in The Times that the organisation had shifted from a "reactive campaign in response to an emergent threat to Britain's place in the world" to a "proactive organisation that will stand up against a decline in internationalist values happening again".
Establishment
Best for Britain was set up in April 2017 to work alongside other organisations in the campaign to maintain Britain's membership of the EU. At the end of 2017, the former UN diplomat Lord Malloch-Brown became Best for Britain's Chair. The CEO is Naomi Smith.
In September 2021, Kim Darroch became Best for Britain's Chair.
Campaign activities
Tell the Remain parties to work together
Following the 2019 European elections Best for Britain launched a campaign and petition that called for the leaders of political parties that supported remaining in the EU to work together to achieve that goal.
Voter registration campaign for European elections
On 8 May 2019, Best for Britain launched a national campaign urging the 7.9 million unregistered eligible voters to sign up before the European elections. Best for Britain CEO, Naomi Smith called the figures "staggering" and said: "These people have a big part to play in the future direction of our country, and we will do everything in our power to ensure their voice is heard on polling day with everyone else's." Best for Britain also created a tool to help voters register and/or obtain a postal vote.
Letters campaign
In the first part of 2019, Best for Britain provided support for a nationwide 'Letters to the Editors' campaign. This drew upon industry professionals from different sectors, such as midwives and doctors, who signed open letters for local and national publications. These highlighted their concerns about what they saw as the damage being done by Brexit to their fields in particular to the NHS.
People's Vote collaboration
Best for Britain has partnered with the People's Vote campaign on marches and rallies. On 23 June 2018 Best for Britain supported and participated in the People's Vote march in London to mark the second anniversary of the referendum to leave the European Union. and also supported and participated in the marches in October 2018 and in March and October 2019. The two organisations also held join rallies for supporters in Westminster Central Hall on 23 November 2018 and the Excel Centre on 9 December 2018.
Bringing Britain Back Together Again
In June 2018, Best for Britain launched its manifesto "Bringing Britain Back Together" to improve public understanding of the process to another referendum, emphasising the "it's still possible to stay" message and drawing attention to what it says was the government's delay and confusion over Brexit. It included an open letter to the country and a road map to stopping Brexit, calling for both sides of the Brexit debate to embrace the idea of another vote to settle the question of the UK's membership of the EU and to avoid the risk that "the entire establishment sleepwalks the country over the Brexit finish line in March 2019".
Best for Britain coupled this manifesto launch with the stated intention to campaign in around 70 key marginal seats, trying to persuade both Labour and Conservative MPs to support a second referendum.
When will we know what we voted for? advertising campaign
Between March and June 2018, Best for Britain ran an advertising campaign across the UK. It featured citizens asking: "When will we know what we voted for?" The campaign slogan, displayed on billboards and in newspaper ads in Birmingham, Carlisle, Manchester, Liverpool, London and Stoke was: "We all deserve a final say on the Brexit deal." Best for Britain was reported to have spent £500,000 on this campaign.
Tactical voting campaign
On 19 April 2017 it launched a crowdfunding appeal in an immediate response to Theresa May's announcement of a snap election to be held on 8 June 2017. In April and May, Best for Britain ran what it hoped would be the UK's largest ever tactical voting campaign.
The crowdfunding campaign received donations from more than 10,000 people and raised over £350,000. The tactical vote campaign was launched at a press conference on 26 April by co-founder Gina Miller and then CEO Eloise Todd. Miller said: "We need to prevent MPs and the people being forced into an extreme Brexit that is not in Britain's best interests. ... We will support candidates who campaign for a real final vote on Brexit, including rejecting any deal that leaves Britain worse off." Miller was the chief spokesperson for this campaign.
Miller left Best for Britain after the 2017 election, expressing concern that the group had become more anti-Tory than Brexit-focused and described it as "a room full of white males deciding what's going to happen to the country" and as "undemocratic".
In 2019, the campaign launched a tactical voting tool for the 2019 general election. The tool attracted immediate controversy after claims that its source data lacked transparency, and recommended that voters vote for the Liberal Democrats in seats that that party had never won and where it had polled well behind the main opposition Labour Party in the previous election. However, the recommendations were updated in line with new polling and by late November 83 constituency recommendations had been changed to support Labour candidates instead.
APPG Gaps in Support
In November 2020, Best for Britain took on the secretariat role of the APPG Gaps in Support, calling for the UK government to ensure nobody was left out from the Covid-19 support packages available for workers and businesses.
A letter was sent to Chancellor Rishi Sunak in February 2021 by a group of 60 MPs calling on the government to consider support proposals drawn up by tax expert Rebecca Seely Harris. Harris was formerly policy adviser at the Office of Tax Simplification, an independent body of HM Treasury.
UK Trade and Business Commission
In April 2021, Best for Britain launched the UK Trade and Business Commission to scrutinise the UK's trade deals with Europe and the rest of the world. The commission is co-chaired by Peter Norris of the Virgin Group and Hilary Benn. When asked if this would be a replacement for the select committee on the Future Relationship with the European Union previously led by Hilary Benn he said that it would have an "intensely practical focus" on the problems being faced by business.
Funding
In February 2018, it was reported in The Daily Telegraph, and confirmed by Best for Britain, that George Soros, through his foundations, had contributed £400,000 to the campaign. The Telegraphs report was described as an "antisemitic dogwhistle" and also criticised for calling Best for Britain's public aim to stop Brexit a "secret plot". In response, Best for Britain launched a crowdfunder, which raised over £200,000 and led to Soros donating a further £100,000.
Best for Britain says it raises much of its funding through smaller individual donations and crowdfunding exercises.

Emotions are a healthy response to the events in our lives, but there are times that emotions become overwhelming and dominate our moods. Acupuncture is used to balance the flow of life energy in the body, and during this process, it has been documented, that as wellness increases, the emotions are also brought into a healthy balance. Many complaints have been linked to emotional disorder, ranging from insomnia, panic attacks, overeating and addictions. Using acupuncture to restore the flow of chi is a gentle, non-invasive therapy, which can have profound impact on emotional health.
If you are a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, do you sometimes push your body to the extreme? In honing your skills, to become more proficient, do you sometimes overreach the comfort zone? Injury may occur as we push beyond our limits, We may overdo it, and over time create problems now and in the future.
In today's hectic lifestyle, we often don't allow adequate time to heal completely. We use painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications to dull the aches, pains and reduce inflammation. It's a quick and easy approach, but only a temporary fix.
By covering up pain, stiffness, swelling or aches, you may be masking a deeper problem. These are the signals from your body, telling you that something is weakened, out of balance, or blocked, and needs to be taken care of. These warning signals are telling you to stop, rest and heal.
Acupuncture, along with other adjunct therapies such as therapeutic herbs and massage can provide a competitive edge in your athletic performance by reducing inflammation, and increasing joint mobility. This ancient and effective form of health care can help create a more agile you.
The treatment of infertility with acupuncture and Chinese medicine dates back 2000 years. These ancient time-tested techniques improve fertility rates and support a woman's whole body, unlocking unlimited potential for health, healing and childbearing.
The British Medical Journal reports on a study where over 400 people who suffered from severe headaches and migraines received acupuncture treatments. These were compared to a group that received regular medications.
Those receiving acupuncture care had an average of 22-30 fewer days without headaches, they used 15% less medication, 25% fewer visits to the doctor and had 15% fewer sick days off from work.
Two billion people worldwide and 18,000,000 Americans use acupuncture to solve their health problems. Acupuncture might be able to help you. | {

Wow. Really, just Wow! I got my own page!!!!
Now that I have it... I guess that's it. Nintendo in general, and I like zeldainformer.com. I really don't have much more to say. I really thought I'd have a lot to say.

Q: Looking for ideas on how to improve groovy performance in the specific test I've encountered some rather significant performance issues while converting an existing batch process from Java to Groovy. The existing batch process written in Java runs periodically reading the data from different data sources and performing some data transformation. What has been discovered is a significant performance degradation with unexpectedly high gap of 10+ times after converting Java code to Groovy.
The code at https://github.com/nicolas-martinez/grava-speed-test is a simplified example that shows one of the problems discovered with a simple loop and filtering using collection closures. It's setup as Maven project which can be easily cloned locally and executed.
Below is the highlight of the Groovy code:
List items = (0..length).collect()
List even = items.findAll { item -> item > 0 && item.longValue() % 2 == 0 }
and the Java code:
List<Long> items = new ArrayList(length);
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
items.add(Long.valueOf(i + 1));
}
List<Long> even = new ArrayList<Long>();
for(Long item : items){
if (item > 0 && item % 2 == 0) {
even.add(item);
}
}
The results of the test are 342ms for Groovy and under 30ms for Java:
-------------------------------------------------------

Please let me know if you have a suggestion on how to improve Groovy performance. Our team is considering moving to Groovy because of some advanced features it offers but it's hard to justify it because of such a high gap in performance we have encountered so far.
Below is my hardware profile as reported by system_profiler SPHardwareDataType:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro11,3
Processor Name: Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.5 GHz
Number of Processors: 1
Total Number of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 16 GB
Boot ROM Version: MBP112.0138.B11
SMC Version (system): 2.19f12
And here is the Java version:
java version "1.7.0_72"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_72-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.72-b04, mixed mode)
The Groovy version is 2.3.7 as defined in pom.xml.
UPDATE.
*
*Made suggested modifications to Groovy code:
List items = (0..length)
List even = items.findAll { int item -> item > 0 && item % 2 == 0 }
*Added repeat of the test method call to warm up the test
I ran ./speed-test.sh which runs groovy and java tests separately. The startup of the jvm was never included in the tests.
Below are the best results that I was able to see running the same method 10 times within the same jvm process allowing for the warm up:
/speed-test.sh

As @blackdrag indicated, Groovy takes longer to warm up. After the warm up cycle, it still takes ~5 times longer to execute (even if the initial warm up cycle is excluded). The updated code is on the branch feature/option-1 if anyone wants to review it.
A: I have roughly those guide lines for performance tests in general:
*
*Ensure you measure more than 1s, to avoid timing errors from the computer clock.
*Always give the Groovy and Java versions as well as the computer specs to be able to compare things
*Always have a long enough warm-up phase
*Don't run multiple micro-benchmarks together
*Measuring multiple iterations to get an average is to be preferred over measuring a single iteration.
Since performance testing is a really really wide field, and with micro-benchmarks especially (since you may not test what you think you test). I am also giving some hints for your case, but going into all details is probably just too much for this platform.
First of all, you should think about what you want to test. Is it peak performance, average performance or initial performance? With or without startup cost? As you may know the JVM uses partially interpreted and partially runtime compiled code. When and how the interpreted code is transformed into compiled code depends for example on the number of iterations the method containing the code has been called (and the types used, code size and a lot of other things)
If you go by peak performance, then junit is not the right tool. JMH for example would be better here, since it handles not only warm-up times, but also stops in a stabilization phase.
There is for example a lot of class loading done the first time the groovy runtime is used, in which the default groovy methods are loaded. This alone can easily take half of the time you observed, and effectively no code had been executed yet at that point.
@CompileStatic can help, but we can not yet always prevent the loading of the groovy meta class system. So even with that, there might be this warm-up cost. Not to mention the JVM itself has a warm-up cost.
The original code needs on my computer for the original code about 752ms. Adding a warm-up of only one single iteration this goes down to 14-20ms.
And there are some logical disconnects as well... List items = (0..length).collect() the range is already a list, so there is no need to call collect here. This will only produce a new list by copying over every element. And collect() is not going to transform the elements into longs. Since we are dealing with Integer objects, there is really no need to convert to long, by calling longValue(). Correcting those two things alone would already reduce the execution time to half (on my computer at least, and without a warm-up phase). But the warm-up phase is really doing a difference here. So with warm-up and those corrections I get to 10ms already (50k elements). To compare it, the Java version needs here 5ms. Which I find already to short to test it. So if I redo the test with 1 million elements I see 73ms (Java) vs. 200ms (Groovy). Of course I changed the Java version to use Integer as well.
Adding a type hint to enable primitive optimizations List even = items.findAll {int item -> item > 0 && item % 2 == 0 } will improve performance to about 120ms.
In other case @CompileStatic or running using invokedynamic (performance of the invokedynamic version depends extremely on the JVM version!) may also help improving performance. They are not going to do much in this test I assume.

January 6, 2023 by S.P. Staff in fiction, stories and tagged evil, fiction, marriage, marry, stories, story
And so there grew great tracks of wilderness,
Wherein the beast was ever more and more,
But man was less and less...
-Alfred, Lord Tennyson
After tipping the cab driver, dabbing some lipstick onto her mouth, and taking a firm grip on her Samsonite boarding bag, Molly Groot waddled towards the Hoosier Park Casino. As she approached the casino, she saw her cab reflected in the glass doorway. It hadn't moved. Had she tipped the driver enough?. Five dollars seemed plenty. Or had she made a mistake in mentioning the name of Jeb Judson, the man who had answered her online matrimonial ad? The man who had bought her plane ticket from Iowa to this modest community of Anderson, Indiana. The man she soon might marry. He had told her to meet him in the casino where he liked to place bets on the horses. He had promised to be there by noon.
Molly did not know that much about Jeb—only that he was a Yale graduate, ruggedly handsome, and had once been a member of Skull and Bones, a very elite fraternity. He also had a PhD in organic chemistry and grew experimental crops for the government on his farm outside of Anderson. But at the mention of his name, the cab driver, a mealy-mouthed little man, had turned into a positive brute. "Jeb Judson," he had sneered. "We don't mention that person in these parts, ma'am. Nobody does."
Surely, that cab driver was nothing but a crank. Jeb Judson seemed the perfect gentleman, having courted her for three months by e-mail before sending her the plane ticket. And he was better looking than Clint Eastwood if his photo could be believed. But it was the last of his e-mails that had made her swoon: he had promised her a fancy luncheon on his homestead veranda then a tour of his twenty- thousand acre farm. And, should they tie the matrimonial knot, a life befitting a manor queen. And what a wicked sense of humor he had. Yesterday, she had asked him the title of his favorite book—a question she posed to all her online acquaintances. His answer, Frankenstein, had made her laugh out loud. But there was nothing droll about their rendezvous: he was clearly a very lonely man, tiring of bachelorhood and wanting a wife. And he was interested in her, Molly Groot, an overweight librarian pushing forty—a spinster with nothing to fuel her passion but picketing her local Wal-Mart. It was truly ironic that they were meeting in a casino. With a roll of the proverbial dice, her future could well be decided for the better.
Molly paused at the casino door. Looking over her shoulder, she heaved a sigh of relief. The cab had vanished. She was no longer being watched by that ill-tempered man.
What a depressed little town she had come to. On the cab ride from the airport, she had seen weedy sidewalks, barren storefronts, and gangs of hoodlums lurking on almost every corner. But the saddest sight of all was the abandoned General Motors plant and the boarded-up headquarters of the United Auto Workers. The town seemed to exist as a relic—a ghost to better times. But wasn't she a bit of a wreck herself? Her push-up bra and wobbly pumps made her feel like a truck driver in drag. Thank God for Jeb Judson. He would carry her off like a bandit on a steed and bring out the real woman in her. A woman she was frantic to release.
Molly looked at her wristwatch and felt her face flush. Her heart began hammering like a rent collector at the door. It was fifteen minutes to noon.
Entering the casino, Molly suppressed a gasp. The glitter of wall-to-wall slot machines was truly a symphony of color and light—an utter contrast to the decaying town. And yet the casino was no less depressing: the hypnotic stares with which patrons watched the tumblers, as though the single pull of a lever might rescue them from food stamps and unemployment checks, hit a little too close to home. Holding her breath, Molly stood near the doorway and watched nervously for Jeb.
He strode through the door at 12:00 o'clock sharp. And her heart nearly stopped when she saw him. He looked exactly like his picture: a lean handsome man in his sixties with a shock of silver white hair. And his tight squint was positively presidential—in a George Bush sort of way.
How easy was his stride as he ambled towards her—how snug the fit of his Wrangler jeans. His sun-browned face and sharp-blue eyes— his aura of rugged individualism—all suggested a marshal in a spaghetti western. And the political button on his shirt—Keep our troops in Afghanistan—only added to his gunfighter image. There were so many horrible bombings these days. Whatever was the world coming to?
He spotted her immediately. "Molly," he drawled. "Molly Groot." When his hand squeezed her fingers, she felt her knees tremble. His palm was warm, dry, and surprisingly smooth for a farmer. His smile was broad but measured, as though he had been saving it only for her. As he patted her hand, she felt a stab of long dormant sexuality.
"J-Jeb," she stammered. "How funny you were. Of all books—Frankenstein."
His laugh was deep but controlled, as though it were something he had borrowed. He did not strike her as a man who laughed often, and yet he was laughing for her. "You came anyhow, darlin'," he murmured. "I must have done something right."
"Against my better judgment," she teased. "Really, Jeb. Frankenstein?! That book is positively baroque."
He swallowed then looked at his boots. "I shouldn't have tried to impress a librarian. Not with the trash I read."
She folded her arms as though cross with him. But she was trying hard not to smile. How long had it been since she had flirted with a man? "Well, you have impressed me, Jeb Judson," she chirped. "But not with your choice of books. And not," she looked critically around the casino, "with your choice of pastimes."
He chuckled deeply and gazed across the room. On a giant television screen above the bar, a cluster of harness racers were jockeying for position along the backside of a track. "Suppose I let you reform me," he said. "Suppose I don't bet on the nags today?" He hooked his thumbs in his pockets and smirked. "There's nothing but losers in this place anyhow."
She looked at him coyly then laughed. "I'm not sure I want you reformed, Jeb Judson."
He arched his eyebrows. "You sure of that? Give a woman long enough, she's bound to find fault with a man."
"Oh really?" she teased. "It seems the whole town has found fault with you, Jeb. Just what are you up to on that farm of yours? A second campaign for Mitt Romney?"
He grinned and shook his head. "Let's just say it's a much bigger hustle. Let's just say it'll make me a rich man."
"And me a manor queen," she joked. "Or will you make me Frankenstein's bride instead?"
Was he blushing beneath that deep tan? she wondered. How easy it was to flirt with him. And how delicious that they now had their own private joke. But why were his eyes avoiding hers? And why did his smile seem so out of place? He must not be used to courtship, she thought. He must want me to put him at ease.
She rolled her eyes coquettishly and planted her hands on her hips. "Just why are you stalling, Jeb Judson?" she asked. "Didn't you invite me to lunch?"
He smiled and held out an elbow. "A lunch befitting a queen," he drawled. "Let's take a little drive, honey. Whaddya say?"
She hooked her hand on the crook of his arm. "I'd say you're a mighty big talker, Jeb. But I am rather famished—it's been a long trip. I hope you've prepared a big meal."
An hour later, she was sitting on the veranda of a rustic Italian-style farmhouse. Looking out on Jeb's estate, Molly felt deeply content. But her surroundings did not seem to merit her mood. Just how lonely was she to be moved by a place like this?
The estate, if one could call it that, consisted of half a dozen enormous silver barns—the kind that existed on factory farms where swine were force-fed in tight crowded pens, never to see the light of day. Close to the barns were several massive waste lagoons, gulches so discolored and septic that they looked like huge open wounds. And what was that smell that tugged at her lungs like an infant demanding attention? It smelled like a ripe diaper.
But at least they were sitting upwind from the scent. And the lunch, a thick stew that tasted like veal, was positively delicious. She was starting to feel tipsy from her third glass of wine and Jeb, dear dear Jeb, was gazing at her with his clear blue eyes—eyes the color of robin eggs. What a magnificent hunk he was. And didn't he say he was going to be rich? But how?
"Jeb," she whispered, her voice thick with wine. "What is going on out here?"
Slowly, as though performing surgery, Jeb topped off her glass. "If I told you," he joked, "I could never let you leave. But that might be best for us both."
A man with a mystery, Molly thought. What more could a woman ask for? She took a deep sip of wine. "Jeb, you're such a tease," she said. "I feel like a heroine in a Charlotte Bronte novel."
Jeb shrugged and burped. "I don't read that women's stuff much," he said. "Brave New World—that's more to my liking. And 1984."
"Oh really?" she scoffed. "Such political tastes. No wonder you're working for the government."
He frowned and topped off his own glass of wine. "A lot of folks work for the government, darlin'. Gardeners, chemists, animal trainers. Some of 'em work right here." He gestured towards the barns where a handful of Mexican laborers were ambling around, toting shovels and hoes. To Molly, they looked as charming as Snow White's seven dwarves.
"Let me guess," Molly teased. "You're growing an army of mutants. You'll use them to take over the country next year. Is that what you're up to, Jeb Judson?"
"No, darlin'," Jeb murmured, his voice rich with mirth. "Next month."
Is he serious? Molly wondered, a thought she could not totally dismiss. She remembered the words of the cab driver: "We don't mention that person in these parts, ma'am," and a tremor invaded her spine. Had she come to the home of an eccentric? Had she thrown too much caution to the wind? Was the internet really the best of places to seek the love of her life? But what did she have waiting for her back in Iowa? A studio apartment, a couple of cats, and a job that barely paid her rent. And how she ached for the touch of a man—her nipples were harder than bullets.
As she looked at Jeb's strong handsome face, a warmth crept into her heart. He needs me to nurture him, she thought. He needs me to take his hand.
But what was that curious sound she now heard? It was coming from one of the barns—a series of shrieks that sounded like a woman making love.
"J-Jeb," she stammered. "What's happening in there? Is somebody butchering a pig for our dinner?"
Jeb answered her firmly. "We don't kill creatures here," he said. "Not if we can help it. We think of them like family."
Creatures? Family? Her foolish panic awoke once again. Was he cloning animals? Was he tinkering about with genetics? Was he working with a hunchback named Igor who dug up graves at night? She put down her wine glass and drew a deep breath. What nonsense I'm thinking. What crazy thoughts. Thank God I can blame them on the wine.
Jeb smiled at her and her palms began to sweat. His eyes were so clear—so wise and embracing. How boorish of her to have doubted him.
"Darlin'," he said, "You came out here for a reason. Let's not lose sight of that."
"What reason might that be, Jeb Judson?"
"I'm guessing you came for an adventure—maybe the first adventure of your life."
"Do I really seem so desperate?" she snapped. She pretended to frown, but the effort was useless. Her eyes were now glittery with tears.
Jeb looked at her reassuringly then cupped her chin with his fingers and thumb. "Yes, darlin', you do," he said matter-of-factly. "Why do you think I sent for you? Desperate women don't judge their men."
"Oh, really?" she said. She turned her head away from him. "With you one might make an exception, Jeb Judson. Did you bring me all this way because you thought I might be desperate?"
"Times are tough—folks are upset. A man needs to take comfort where he can find it."
"Even from desperate librarians?" she muttered. "You must have a rather dark side to you, Jeb, if frumps are the best you can do."
He shook his head sadly and patted her cheek. "Do I scare you that much, honey?"
"You scare me a little bit, Jeb. But you intrigue me even more." She placed the palm of her hand on his wrist. "And I have been alone such a very long time."
Jeb laughed and rose slowly from his chair. "Come on then," he said. "It's time you met the family."
As she followed Jeb to the nearest barn, Molly felt as though she were crossing an ocean. She remembered a line from Julius Caesar, her favorite Shakespearian play. And we must take the current where it serves… But how would this current serve her? Would it lead her to love and good fortune or to something she'd rather not see? Even Jeb seemed to sense the pregnancy of the moment. His face had lost its ironic smirk and had hardened into a soldierly resolve.
When they reached the barn, Jeb nodded to a Mexican laborer. Slowly, as though cracking a safe, the man unlocked the door. Molly smelled the interior of the barn before she saw it—a smell so strong that it made her nose itch. Her eyes began to water, her head began to swim, and she felt as though she were walking in quicksand. And so it seemed strange, when she entered the barn, that she saw little reason to panic. Inside the barn was a large shallow field beneath rows of low-hanging grow lights. And peeking through the ruts in the soil were a few dozen orange balls the size of cantaloupes. Men in white lab coats were ducking beneath the grow lights, adjusting sprinklers and carefully inspecting the balls. Is this what had me so worried? she wondered. A silly pumpkin patch? She was not at all impressed.
"Jeb," she said when she was able to draw a breath. "You call this an adventure?"
"We call it our nursery," Jeb replied. "Here is where we plant the mutants. Where we let 'em ripen like fruit on the vine."
He took her by the elbow and guided her onto the field. The damp earth pulled stubbornly at her pumps, and it was all she could do not to trip. Releasing her elbow, Jeb paused for a moment then knelt beside one of the larger balls. He squeezed it tenderly, as though fondling a breast, then began to dig gently with his fingers. "Prepare yourself, darlin'," he said. "This is all the adventure you're ever gonna need."
Jeb's fingers blackened from the soil and the ball began to loosen. As he started to pull it from the ground, Molly suppressed a gasp. It was not a pumpkin—it was a little head, complete with bulging eyes, a scrunched-up nose, and a wide rather slobbery-looking mouth. A pear-shaped body followed the head as Jeb continued to tug—a body with a ropey umbilical cord and tiny hands and feet. It was the size of a newborn baby.
"This one's ready for harvesting," Jeb announced. He pulled a box cutter from his pants pocket, pushing out the blade as he did so, then he cut the umbilical cord in two. A substance that looked like green custard dribbled onto the ground. After rinsing the creature under a sprinkler, Jeb mopped it dry with a handkerchief and handed it to Molly.
"The smell will soon go away," he said. "But don't be holdin' it too long. We don't want it thinking you're its mother."
Molly clutched the thing with shaking hands, too startled to let it drop. The creature was cute, in a French Bulldog sort of way, but how ridiculous to think she might pose as its mother. Its body was cold, its skin was rough, its fingers were wiggling like worms. And its wide gaping mouth was emitting a sound that set her teeth on edge. "Eeek, eeek, eeeek," it went, a noise just like chalk being scraped along a blackboard. And it smelled so strongly of fertilizer that it was all she could do not to sneeze.
Molly held the creature away from her. "Take it!" she said. "Take it away! It needs a cage, not a mother, Jeb."
As Jeb took the thing back, tucking it beneath his elbow, she remembered a Biblical quote. Ye shall know them by their fruits. She was not at all religious—she rarely went to church—and so she now realized the full impact of her shock. If runts like that thing were the fruits of Jeb's labor—cold little cretins that smelled like an outhouse, he might not be the nicest of men.
She started to sob. "J-Jeb, how could you? It looks like a freak. It smells like a toilet."
Jeb grinned sheepishly then shrugged. "The whole country's in the crapper, darlin'. That's why we need desperate measures. And desperate women too."
"You sound like you just made a deal with the devil."
Jeb flushed like a scolded schoolboy, a sight so touching that she knew she was going to forgive him. He seemed so lonely, so in need of companionship, that she wanted to pull him tightly to her breast. But when he spoke to her again, her stomach knotted.
"You sound like an exorcist, darlin'," he said. "Don't turn away the devil until you've heard his offer."
"W-what do you even feed it?" she asked; it was all she could think of to say.
Holding the podling under his arm, Jeb began stroking its head. "We raise 'em on dog food," he said with a smirk. "It'll reach its full growth in six short weeks. That's when we start training them."
"Training them?" Molly muttered. "Training them to do what?"
As she watched the thing squirm in Jeb's hands, her mind began to rebel. Was he actually fond of that little gremlin? Did he think she would find it endearing as well? But her heart was starting to bleed for him, and she knew she was falling in love. What a sad and lonely man he must be to regard such a thing as a pet. How badly he needed a good woman's love to save him from himself.
"Darlin'," he said, "let's get on with our tour. I've told you the answer already."
Smiling thinly, Jeb scratched the creatures belly. "Eeek, eeeek, EEEEK," it went like a mouse caught in a trap.
As he walked her to another barn, Jeb took her hand in his. A chorus of squawks was coming from the barn, as though circular saws were biting into timber. The squawks were so raw, so primitive and sharp, that they stung the fillings in her teeth.
Jeb unlocked the door to the barn. "We're breaking these in for the auto plant," he said. "They get a bit feisty at first, but they go with the program soon enough."
Jeb's voice had lost its gentleness and now sounded smug and pedantic. Has he actually bested the devil? thought Molly. How could that possibly be? He's so clearly a man cut off from the world—a broken, discarded soul. As Jeb pushed open the door to the barn, generous tears filled her eyes.
Her tenderness for Jeb vanished the moment she stepped into the barn. Never had she seen anything remotely like this. A mob of the freaks, each six and a half feet tall, was standing alongside a long conveyer belt. Their eyes were glassy, their shoulders were sagging, their bodies were pitted with large crusty sores. Behind them stood more men in lab coats—men clutching hypodermic syringes and cattle prods. The men watched closely as the creatures lifted chassis, engine blocks, and tires from the conveyor belt and lugged them to nearby tables. When one of them deposited its load on a table, it was rewarded with an injection. Miracle-Gro, Molly guessed, or maybe some kind of sedative. If one dropped its burden, a cattle prod stung it. "Rawk, rawk, RAWK," cried the things when given electrical shocks. They sounded like angry crows.
Jeb squeezed her hand and beamed. "Next month," he said, "the GM plant will reopen. We'll be fitting these fellas with memory chips—they'll be working the robot arms. If things work out as planned, the entire auto industry will return to America."
Molly felt as though someone had punched her and run away with her purse. How alarming to know she'd been charmed by a man who merited only contempt. What an elitist. What a swine. I must have been crazy to want him. I must have been out of my mind. "Those poor, poor creatures…" she mumbled, her tongue so dry she could barely form the words. It was only a perverse fascination that kept her from leaving Jeb's side.
Oblivious to her heartbreak, Jeb continued to lecture. "Low maintenance would better describe them," he said. "No more health care to pay, no more strikes to settle, no more pensions to drain away the budget. These go-getters work eighteen hours a day and make good fertilizer when they die. The stockholders will be overjoyed."
"No more jobs for the people in town," Molly blurted, a remark so reflexive that she instantly regretted it. Jeb's attitude had grown so superior, his manner so professorial, that she felt like a child who had scattered her toys and neglected to put them away. She wanted to cry on his chest, but she felt too stunned to move.
Jeb sucked a tooth and shrugged. "The people," he muttered, "are cattle as well. This isn't that big a transition."
Before Molly could reply, a commotion arose at the other end of the barn. A few of the freaks—all blazing with sores—were standing in a row. They were bound to one another with waist chains and watching a cluster of tackling dummies. They were squawking excitedly among themselves.
"Watch this," Jeb instructed. He removed a whistle from his back pocket, put it to his lips, and blew. At the chirp of the whistle, the things lowered their heads and assembled into a flying wedge. Jeb blew the whistle a second time and they lumbered towards the dummies. The sound of their skulls bashing foam thudded throughout the barn.
"There's bound to be demonstrators," Jeb said. "Those UAW shirkers who drove the industry abroad. This'll send them packing."
"And so you're a strike breaker too?!" Molly cried. Her mind was reeling, her senses were numb, but she could not tear her eyes from the sight.
Jeb grinned. "There will be no more strikes—no one's getting his job back. Scab labor is going to take over."
Molly held her face between her hands. What a revolting man he was. What a self-entitled boar. If he had been born in the eighteenth century, he'd have surely been a slave owner. "Jeb, take me from here," she sobbed—it was all she could manage to utter.
Jeb smiled kindly and cleared his throat. His face had lost all self-consciousness now and he seemed to be looking at her from a very great distance. What a child you still are, his eyes seemed to say. How much you still have to learn. "Let's go back to the house, my darlin'," he said. "You haven't had dessert."
"Devils food cake!" Molly cried. "You're serving me devil's food cake?!"
Jeb finished cutting the rich chocolate cake and handed her a piece. There was not a trace of irony in his face.
They were sitting at a coffee table inside an enormous study. The walls were lined with dozens of bookcases, all of them crammed full of books. There were science logs, history books, manuals on animal husbandry. There were texts on organic farming, molecular biology, and plant pathology. There were rows and rows of philosophy books: Spinoza, Kant, Spencer, Nietzsche filled up two whole shelves. There were endless volumes of literature: Shakespeare, Homer, Chaucer, Goethe—the titles went on and on. There was even a sagging bookcase devoted entirely to erotica. Molly's head began to ache.
Jeb smiled at her reassuringly and took a bite of cake. "Yes, darlin'," he said. "I've read every one of them. Some I've read several times." He looked at her thoughtfully, took a slow breath, then he spoke as though reading out loud. "'Football, films, and beer filled the horizons of their minds.' That's from George Orwell, 1984. I think it describes the goddamn people you feel such sympathy for."
Molly shook her head and tried to scowl, but could not hide the shock in her face. "So what does that make you, Jeb?" she snapped. "An educated monster?"
"Maybe," Jeb chuckled, his mouth full of cake. "But at least I've impressed a librarian."
"Have you?" she spat. "Have you really?" She did not wish to make that concession to him, and yet she was deeply in awe. Clearly this man, this very strange man, was far better read than she would ever be. Perhaps, he was even smarter. Perhaps, he was a genius.
Determined to puncture his maddening pride, she sniped at him again. "What good have all these books done you, Jeb, if you treat those poor things like slaves?"
"Darlin'," Jeb said, "there's a far bigger picture." He burped, rose from his chair, and wandered over to one of the bookcases. He fingered the books as though tuning a piano then recited some titles out loud. "Commodore: The Life of Cornelius Vanderbilt. Last Man Standing: The Ascent of J.P. Morgan. Today and Tomorrow: The Autobiography of Henry Ford." He looked at her kindly and folded his arms; his eyes were twinkling like stars. "These men were monsters—all of them. But they rose above the horde. And they took the country to places nobody could have imagined."
My God, Molly thought. What an ego he has. How could I ever have though of reforming this dreadful, impossible man? "Jeb, there's cake on your chin," she murmured. "Besides that, you sound like Satan."
"Devils are all around us," Jeb shrugged—he rubbed the cake from his chin. "Not all of them can be bargained with. Not all will bother to court you. Better we should out-monster them than allow them to eat us alive."
Oh no! Molly thought. He's a Nietzsche nut too. She had always hated that little German prude. His rants about apes, man, and the superman to come were so pompous, so smug, so utterly contemptuous. Why—out of all the books in his study—did Jeb have to quote from Nietzsche?!
"So you're the ascender of man," she joked. "I always wondered what he would look like."
Jeb laughed and shook his head. "I'm not that ambitious, darlin'," he said. "I wish only to be a monster."
Molly felt her skin crawl. The man was insane, totally insane—no wonder he was alone. And yet his eyes, his clear blue eyes, were as tranquil as a lake. It was the accommodation in his eyes—the gentleness with which he now looked at her—that gave her the courage to lecture him. "The townspeople are all against you, Jeb. They think you're a monster already."
He chuckled proudly and smirked. "I would only be worried if they were my friends."
More Nietzsche, she thought; her fists tightened into balls. "Must you keep quoting that crass, little German? What are your thoughts, Jeb. What is inside that head of yours?"
He returned to his chair, slowly sat down, and picked up the remainder of his cake. He poked at the cake as though touching up a sculpture then put it back on the coffee table. It was a minute before he spoke. "I'm a jaded man, darlin'," he said. "I am drunk with power, poisoned with knowledge, callous to all that I touch. But the people, without even trying, are far greater monsters than me."
Look into the abyss, Molly remembered, and the abyss will look into you. Was that vain little Kraut actually right about something? Was the nihilism in Jeb Judson's eyes about to seep into her soul? The thought only made her angrier. "Oh really?" she muttered. "Just what is their sin?"
"Ignorance," replied Jeb—the word struck her like a hammer. "Willful, church-bred ignorance. They breed, they doze, they die—that is all. Like cattle on a plain."
Molly could hardly believe her own thoughts. Did this arrogant man, this self-centered pig, believe he was some kind of savior? "You tether innocent creatures," she stammered. "You bury their babies in dirt."
Jeb looked at her sharply and glared. How quickly his moods changed. "Knowledge can kill you," he said with a shrug. "Nietzsche probably died of it. But it also can make you a brute."
"Just what do you mean by that?" Molly snapped.
"I plan to tether the people as well. Lead 'em around by the nose. Their kind of monster we cannot empower—the world is too dangerous a place."
He rose from his chair, cracked his knuckles, then turned on a small television. "Nietzsche had it wrong," he said. "Mankind will never ascend. Not…" An NFL playoff game was on—a contest between the Titans and the Patriots. The stadium was packed with fifty thousand people, all of them on their feet screaming. He looked at the game disgustedly then turned the television off. "Not," he repeated, "'til they can get that excited over things that really matter."
Despite the condescension in Jeb Judson's face, Molly felt a stirring in her heart. Was she, an unstable female, being swayed by this alpha brute? Your damn bitch is having puppies in my brain. This line from East of Eden, a novel she adored, flashed like a warning sign through her head. Utterly ashamed of herself, she buried her face in her hands.
She felt Jeb's hand on her shoulder, a gentle protective touch. "Finish your cake, my darlin," he said. "There's much I still have to show you."
He led her to a third barn. The door was sealed shut by a heavy, iron bar and a padlock the size of her fist. Jeb opened the lock with a thick key and they entered a small sally port. Beyond the inner door, Molly heard ravenous sounds: chomping, gulping, slurping noises that chilled her to the marrow. Her fear only increased when Jeb unlocked a gun cabinet and removed a semiautomatic pistol. He slapped a magazine into the grip.
"Stay close beside me," he ordered. "Whatever happens."
He tucked the handgun behind his belt then unlocked the inner door. As they walked into the barn, Molly clutched his elbow and gasped. In front of them was a deeply-ploughed field—a field fitted with grow lights and harmless-looking sprinklers. But poking through the topsoil were hundreds and hundreds of fierce-looking orange heads. The heads were aligned in rows, like troops awaiting inspection, and some of them were devouring the craniums in front of them.
Jeb shook his head; he seemed to be embarrassed. "A crop of adolescents," he said. "Guess we planted 'em too closely together."
Molly could only shudder and stare. What on earth had possessed her to follow Jeb into this barn?
"We've injected these with steroids," Jeb went on. "They're going to fight our wars. Once they've reached their full growth, that is, and we've put memory chips in their heads."
"Are they really?" Molly asked. She wanted to cover her eyes. She wanted to vomit her cake. "I find the very sight of them revolting."
"Soldiers should be revolting," Jeb said. "One look at these chaps and our enemies will be sweating in their turbans. It'll make 'em think twice about taking back their oilfields."
Molly released Jeb's elbow and gasped. She was ready to bolt from the barn, but her legs felt rubbery and spent. "And so you're a warmonger too," she stammered. "Or is that a war profiteer?"
Jeb shrugged and winked. "I'm more of a war economist," he said. "There's not much profit in war anymore, but at least we can trim the tab. These suckers will fight for nothing, and they like to get down in the dirt." He chuckled at his own joke and gazed serenely at the heads. "No more hospital expenses for the wounded," he said. "No more military pensions. No more lawsuits from veterans who have outlived their usefulness."
Molly could feel her nails stabbing her palms. She wanted to claw out Jeb's eyes. "So you're going to replace them with cannibals," she cried. "Jeb, I find you disgusting."
"Do you, darlin'?" Jeb buried a chuckle. "We're already fighting our wars by proxy—this isn't that big a step. And once we lower the goddamn cost, we can fight our wars to win."
Molly clenched her teeth. He's a murderer, she thought. A cold-blooded calculating murderer. "Those beastly, beastly wars!" she cried. "I never ever believed in them!"
"No one believes in our wars," Jeb shrugged. "Not enough to fight 'em anyhow. But our enemies are growing stronger—they want their oilfields back." He cleared his throat and spat contemptuously. "If you don't want us killing off Arabs, darlin', give up your goddamn car. You can't have it both ways."
"You're disgusting," cried Molly. "You're evil and cold. Somebody needs to stop you, Jeb Judson."
"And who is going to stop me?" Jeb laughed. "Your spoiled and precious people?"
"Somebody has to stop you. This is a crime against God!"
"God's not as proactive as me," Jeb shrugged. "And the people won't give a hoot. If we give 'em their gas-guzzling cars, if we give 'em their baseball and beer, if we give 'em their sitcoms and TiVo, they'll stay happy as pigs in shit. Hell," Jeb blew his nose and laughed, "once we've lowered the price of gas, we won't even have to beat up demonstrators…"
A predatory squawk interrupted Jeb's speech. He yanked the gun from his pants.
"Get behind me!" he ordered. He quickly racked the slide then went into a shooter's crouch. "Behind me!" he repeated. "Plug up your ears!"
Only then did Molly realize that one of those vile, little gluttons was loose. Somehow, while she was scolding Jeb, it had managed to uproot itself from the ground. It's eyes were blazing, its jaws were snapping, and it was tottering towards them on newly discovered legs. "Raaawk!" it cried, a soulless sound like a nail being ripped from a coffin.
The podling kept lumbering towards them.
The beastly thing barely flinched.
POW POW.
Molly jammed her fingers into her ears. "Kill it," she screamed. "Kill it, Jeb." The little brute seemed unstoppable.
Pow Pow… Pow.
As the seventh shot echoed, the thing stopped walking. Its legs began to liquefy, then it thudded to the ground. Even so, its jaws, pasty with pulp, continued to gnaw and snap.
Molly removed her fingers from her ears. She felt stunned, as though she had just walked away from a car crash. But her blood still boiled when she looked at Jeb. "For a war economist," she accused, "you're really not much of a shot."
Jeb grinned. "They have seven nerve centers," he said. "Two are in their ankles, two are in their knees, three more are in their head. You gotta hit each one if you want to take them out." Setting the safety catch, he tucked the pistol back into his pants. "Once we've programmed them properly, they'll attack only towel heads. They'll blow 'em to bits with grenades then gobble up their brains. Put the fear of Allah in 'em."
Please God, make him stop talking, Molly thought. Can't he see I'm about to be sick?
With morbid pride, Jeb kept lecturing. "They make great suicide bombers too. We'll wire them up with TNT then detonate 'em by remote control."
"J-Jeb," Molly stammered, her knees were shaking. "If you care for me at all, you will stop this conversation."
Jeb's eyes began to soften and he took her by the arm. "Very well, darlin'. I'll say nothing more. But the tour's not over yet."
Slowly, as though walking through smoke, Molly followed Jeb to yet another barn. Her horror had morphed into an eerie enthrallment—the same captivation she'd felt when she'd first read Dante's Inferno. What else did this man have to show her—what new and unprecedented horrors? She felt as though she were hypnotized.
Jeb unlocked a fourth barn and they walked inside. There were fifty or so creatures in the barn, all of them full-grown, and they looked like a failed experiment. Their craniums were uncommonly small and long drooling tongues were hanging from their mouths. "Quack," they kept crying. "Quack, quack, quack." They looked as though they were trying to utter words.
"These will be our politicians," Jeb said. "They're on a break now, but speech therapists are working with them ten hours a day. That's why their tongues are so big."
"Politicians?!" Molly cried. She could not believe her ears. "Jeb, is this some kind of joke?"
"Mayors, congressmen, senators, you name it. The politicians in office now pretty much stay in line, but one of 'em gets a wild hair now and then. Obama's a perfect example—what with his blocking the Keystone pipeline. And his goddamn socialized medicine. He's forgotten he's bought and paid for."
Molly felt laughter welling up inside her—sunless, hysterical mirth. The creatures looked so comical, she could hardly hold it in. "Jeb, do you hear what you're saying?" she giggled. "Who would ever vote for these clownish things?"
"As long as they're preaching the politics of fear, it won't matter a damn what they look like." Jeb placed his whistle between his lips. "Listen," he said.
At the blast of the whistle, the mob began to babble. "You are under attack," they cried out in unison. "Quack, quack, quack. You are under attack."
One of them, apparently better schooled than the rest, parroted several sentences. "The government will protect you. The government will make things right. Just give it all your money. And give it all your rights."
Jeb put away the whistle and smirked. "Not a wayward thought among 'em," he said. "How about that?"
Molly covered her ears with her hands. The Pavlovian clamor—the horrid quack quack quacks—were making her head buzz. But her palms were unable to shut out the sounds—she could hear yet another voice: a monotonous riveting croak that reminded her of a frog. "Stop all handouts," it droned. "Don't control businesses." One of the freaks, a yard shorter than the rest, was speaking directly to her. It's eyes were wide, its nostrils were flaring, its face was a mask of self-righteous composure.
"What on earth is that?" she screamed.
Jeb stuck out his chest and grinned. "That is a special project," he said. "A Clarence Thomas replica." He pushed the dwarf away from her then patted it on the head. "Clarence Thomas—think of it. The most conservative, program averse, pull-yourself-up by your bootstraps jurist ever to pass the bar. If we get eight more like him on the bench, the people—as a class—will be completely disenfranchised."
Oh judgment, Molly thought, you have fled to brutish beasts! Was there no limit to this man's madness—no bounds to his swinish ambitions? And would the people—the stupid, lotus eating people—really allow him to succeed? As she looked at Jeb's face, his crafty intelligent face, she feared that the answer was yes. The people are cattle, his eyes reminded her. And cattle should stay in herds.
"Jeb," she cried. "Jeb, this is total insanity."
"Well and good," Jeb replied. "That'll push things along. You can't stop a madness whose hour has come."
He put his whistle to his lips and blew it once again. The voices grew even louder.
"YOU ARE UNDER ATTACK!"
"WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK!"
"THERE'S NOTHING YOU'LL LACK!"
"QUACK, QUACK, QUACK!"
As she started to faint, Molly heard random laughter—laughter that seemed to arise from a void. And so, she did not recognize it as her own.
She recovered on a bench outside of the barn. Jeb Judson was patting her cheek. "Darlin'," he said, "the tour is almost done. But maybe you've reached your limit."
As she stared at his hawkish, attractive face, her eyes hardened with resolve. "Show me the rest!" she commanded. Why she said that she did not know. Perhaps it was the fastidiousness in her soul, her librarian's need to delimit and define. Or maybe she needed a complete inventory of the man to totally cast him out of her life. After all, he was still one hell of a hunk.
"Show me the rest!" she repeated. Just one more outrage ought to do it. Just one more horror ought to kill her affection for him entirely.
"Very well," Jeb replied. He helped her to her feet. Taking her by the hand, he guided her to a fifth barn. She waited impatiently while he unlocked the door.
As they entered the barn, Molly felt her jaw drop. The freaks in this barn were hourglass-shaped and their skin was pale and smooth. With their heroic busts and swelling hips, with their hair tumbling down to their tiny waists, they looked like lewd parodies of women. They were watching Jeb as he closed the barn door, appraising him like dogs smelling meat.
"These," Jeb explained, "are our sex toys."
This has to be the final straw, Molly thought. He's obviously a pervert, to boot.
Reading her thoughts, Jeb stifled a chuckle. "They're for the goddamn people—not me," he said. "A gift to make sure they keep out of our hair."
"A gift for pigs just like you," Molly said. "What will the wives say?"
"They'll be too busy competing for their men. Watch."
Jeb put the whistle to his lips and blew. Immediately, the things fell onto their backs and began thrusting their hips into the air. "Baby, baby, baby!" they shrieked. "Nobody does it like you!!"
Molly could stand it no more. The vulgarity of the display—it's utter depravity—blew away the last of her reserve. "You sexist!" she cried. "You Stepford pig. Is that what you think of women?! Is that what you want me to do?!"
"No, darlin'," said Jeb. He took her hand gently in his. "You I will treat like a queen."
Snatching her hand from Jeb's grasp, Molly slapped him across the face. The creatures, aroused by the sound of the blow, began thrusting their hips even harder. "SPANK ME, SPANK ME, DADDY!" they cried. "NOBODY DOES IT LIKE YOU!"
"Why?!" Molly sputtered, her eyes bright with tears. "Why this, Jeb?!"
Jeb shrugged. "A little insurance to keep folks distracted. Beer, films, and sports may not always be enough. But sex," he rubbed his cheek and winked conspiratorially. "Nothing'll make people dumber than sex."
"But this is so insulting…"
Jeb laughed. "The country's already obsessed with sex. Films, clothes, commercials—you name it, it's there. This will help us secure our power and save our beloved land."
He clapped his hands twice. "That'll do!" he instructed. The creatures shuddered orgastically then collapsed in exhausted heaps. But they continued to plead and babble as he walked Molly out of the barn. "Daddy, daddy, daddy," they piped. "Nobody does it like you."
She sat silently on Jeb's veranda, clutching another glass of wine. The sun had set but an afterglow lingered, and the horizon looked like a bruise. Molly stared hypnotically at the barns, ignoring the bowl of mangos and pears that Jeb had set beside her.
"Don't think the worst of me, darlin'," Jeb said. "Have a piece of fruit."
Molly put down her wine glass and dabbed her eyes with a Kleenex. "Just what do you want with me, Jeb?"
Jeb cupped her hand lovingly in his. "I want you to be my wife," he said. "I want you to give me a son."
"Those loathsome, loathsome creatures you're raising."
He squeezed her hand gently and smiled. "A towering, godless, unblinking son who will one day manage all this." Releasing her hand as though freeing a bird, he pointed towards the barns. "A son to make Nietzsche proud."
Jeb fumbled in his pocket, retrieving a small leather case. He opened it slowly and showed her the ring. The diamond was as big as her knuckle and it winked in the cold evening light. "Marry me, dear, and I'll make you my queen."
As she looked at his face, his strong paternal face, her anger melted like snow. His gaze was so warm and protective, his eyes so clear and blue.
She slipped the ring onto her finger and sighed.
"Shall we set a date?" she said.

CINCINNATI (AP) — An opera based on Pink Floyd's album "The Wall" has made its U.S. debut in Cincinnati.
"Another Brick in the Wall" opened Friday at Music Hall. It premiered in Montreal last year. Pierre Dufour's production follows a rock singer named Pink, who relives pivotal moments in his life during a stay at a mental health clinic.
"Another Brick" star Nathan Keoughan has the task of diving into Pink's "tortured" life. He says he believes many rock fans are attracted to the opera because of its creativity. | {

Q: Function composition dynamically Let' s say I have a function move.
Now, depending on some inputs (let' s say the input says "Move by 3"), I have to move 3 times.
I would do this like :
move compose move compose move
Is it possible to do function composition dynamically? So that I can build my new function depending on the number of times I have to move.
Thank you
A: Just use a fold:
def move(x: Int): Int = x + 1
def moveBy(n: Int) =
(1 to n).foldLeft[Int => Int](identity _) { (f, _) => f compose move }
moveBy(5)(0) // > 5
A: You could use the Function.chain method :
scala> val move1 = (x:Int) => x+1
move1: Int => Int = <function1>
scala> val move5 = Function.chain(List.fill(5)(move1))
move5: Int => Int = <function1>
scala> move5(5)
res1: Int = 10

Pakistani Politician Praises Pilot for Narrow Escape...in GTA V
"Narrow escape of an aircraft which could have ended in a great disaster. Miraculous save by the pilot's presence of mind."
Pakistan's Secretary General recently tweeted a video of an airplane supposedly avoiding a narrow collision with an oil tanker in Los Angeles, USA.
However, despite it being described as a "miraculous save", it turns out that this incident was actually a computer simulation on Grand Theft Auto 5.
Before being trolled by the Twitter community for his apparent stupidity of not knowing the video was animated, the Secretary General tweeted:
"Narrow escape of an aircraft which could have ended in a great disaster. Miraculous save by the pilot's presence of mind,"
Here's the video if you want to check it out:
Although computer graphics are now incredibly detailed, I still find it hard to see how the video could have been mistaken for real-life.

This post has been updated since the original version of the video has been removed from its streaming service.
It's been three years since Jay Z recorded "Glory" to celebrate the birth of his daughter Blue Ivy. Now she has a music video to go with her lullaby.
"I think some songs shouldn't be rehearsed," he raps; the video, though, features rehearsal footage from a charity concert he gave in 2012 at Carnegie Hall, so maybe the best way to get there is still practice after all.
The "Glory" video was released exclusively on Jay Z's new music streaming service, Tidal, which already has a star-studded celebrity roster: Madonna, Rihanna and—of course—Jay's wife Beyoncé have all premiered songs on the service in recent weeks. | {

« 360 Vision Technology tell us how IP CCTV will develop in the future.
Arecont are an American company and pride themselves on their innovative range of ip megapixel cameras. At IFSEC this year they were able to demonstrate their first H.264 dual mode 10megapixel 1080 p camera. The Av 10005 series is a colour, day night camera with auto iris and it is its performance at night that sets it apart from other megapixel cameras on show this year.
Combined with clever CCTV software the camera can be panned digitally and has multiple zoom windows. This can all be done while still recording the full field of view in 10 megapixel mode. The camera also has the ability to detect motion using 64 motion zones, all this in real time. Programmable shutter speeds control motion blur.
This camera is being marketed as a very cost effective solution for night time megapixel images but has many other flexible features built in. The most important thing though having viewed the images was the quality we were able to see. At the end of the day this is ultimately what the customer will be most concerned about and the AV10005 will certainly meet the end users needs.

Robert Covington, who hasn't played since Dec. 31 because of a right knee bone bruise, suffered a recent setback and is expected to miss the rest of the season, the Wolves announced Thursday.
And he'll have extended company in street clothes. Guards Jeff Teague (left foot) and Derrick Rose (elbow) are also expected to miss the rest of the season.
An MRI on Rose's elbow revealed a chip fracture, while Teague is slated to be in a walking boot before being re-evaluated in three weeks, the Wolves announced. The group announcement Thursday morning came with the Wolves all but mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. They have 10 games remaining in the season after playing Thursday night in Charlotte.
The long-term impact of all three injuries remains to be seen. Covington, a key piece in the November trade for Jimmy Butler, helped the Wolves to a 9-3 stretch during which they played their best basketball of the year after the deal. He is under contract for three more seasons after this. Teague can opt in for one more season with the Wolves, while Rose will be a free agent.
All three finish with seasons that were at times fantastic but frustratingly incomplete.
Covington averaged 14.5 points and 2.3 steals in 22 games, Rose had a 50-point game that riveted the league and was nearly voted an All-Star, while Teague averaged 8.2 assists per game. | {

Press release: 80,000 work placements delivered
Alok Sharma, Minister of State for Employment, pays tribute to Movement to Work and its partner employers for delivering skills and prospects to young people who need extra support to get on the career ladder
UK work-placement charity, Movement to Work (MtW), will announce at its annual
CEO Summit and Awards on 4 February 2019 that its employer members, including FTSE 100 companies and SMEs, have delivered 80,000 work placements over the last five years, for young people who are not in education, employment or training (NEET).
MtW is a collaboration of UK employers committed to tackling youth unemployment through the provision of high-quality work experience and other work opportunities. The 80,000 work placements have been made possible by employers, charities and Government working together through MtW. Collectively they have provided young people with diverse and empowering experiences ranging from hospitality to engineering.
The placement programmes lead to tangible results for young people with more than 50 per cent of those finishing placements going back to education or into employment.
The programmes delivered by the collaboration equate to an economic value to the UK of over £1bn[1] over the five-year period, with young people moving into employment no longer claiming benefits, paying tax and spending their pay.
Alok Sharma, Minister of State for Employment, said: "The overall UK employment rate is at an all-time high, with more people in work than ever before, and youth unemployment has almost halved since 2010. But we cannot be complacent and I am determined to ensure that we make further progress to ensure that every young person has the opportunity to benefit from a stable job.
"The really positive news is that these 80,000 placements have led to tens of thousands of young people getting that opportunity in the work place and I pay tribute to Movement to Work and all the employers involved, who are joining together to deliver the skills set and work prospects which young people want."
Ivan Menezes, chairman of Movement to Work and chief executive of Diageo, said: "We believe in the potential of all young people and know that by providing placements and other opportunities that lead to meaningful work, we can support young people to fulfil their potential. Meaningful employment is key to their wellbeing, enables them to contribute to their communities and brings prosperity to so many.
"This is not just the right thing to do for young people, it is the right thing to do for business. We are unlocking a pool of talent for our organisations, uncovering a loyal and motivated workforce and increasing current workforce engagement as they mentor these young people to succeed. We know that supporting young people works for them, for employers and broader society. Thankfully our employer members believe this too and have contributed to this incredible figure of 80,000 placements."
Employers working with MtW have recognised that recruiting in this way makes both ethical and financial sense through lower recruitment costs, the enhanced loyalty of placement graduates, improved morale of existing staff and the ability to build in-house talent through training.
Employer members include Accenture, BAE Systems, Barclays, BT, BUPA, Centrica, the Department for Work and Pensions, Diageo, HSBC, IBM, Marks and Spencer, Marriott International, NHS, Tesco, Unilever and Wates, amongst others.

Nirbhaya documentary
Meryl Streep, Frieda Pinto to attend US premiere of documentary
March 07, 2015 12:21 pm | Updated November 16, 2021 05:15 pm IST - New York

The BBC documentary, depicting the aftermath of the brutal gangrape and murder of Nirbhaya in 2012, will have its US premier next week and will be attended by Oscar winning actress Meryl Streep and Frieda Pinto in a show of support for the film banned in India.
The US premier of the documentary 'Storyville: India's daughter' on March 9 at the Baruch College of the City University of New York here will be presented by NGO Vital Voices Global Partnership and children's development organisation Plan International.
Streep and Pinto, who is Plan's 'Because I am a Girl' global ambassador, will be joined by the documentary's director Leslee Udwin at the screening. Udwin, a Plan ambassador, said the December 2012 rape and the protests that followed was an "Arab spring for gender equality."
"What impelled me to leave my husband and 2 children for 2 years while I made the film in India was not so much the horror of the rape as the inspiring and extraordinary eruption on the streets. A cry of 'enough is enough'. Unprecedented numbers of ordinary men and women, day after day, faced a ferocious government crackdown that included tear gas, baton charges and water cannon. They were protesting for my rights and the rights of all women. That gives me optimism. I can't recall another country having done that in my lifetime," Ms.Udwin said.
Vital Voices' Vice President of Human Rights Cindy Dyer implored everyone to watch the documentary and to "speak out and demand non-violence."
Dyer said the "provocative" documentary is a powerful platform for cultural change on a global scale and exposes the attitudes and beliefs that result in violence against women.
"The entire world must heed this wise and brave call. It's not just India - it's everywhere. Each of us must summon the moral courage to expose the appalling attitudes and beliefs which lie at the core of horrific offenses like the one that claimed the 23-year-old paramedical student's life," Dyer said.
"We must have the fortitude and perseverance to extinguish this mindset from our communities and to support leaders who use their voice and agency to advocate for change. So I implore everyone to watch this documentary. Speak out. Demand non-violence," Dyer said.
The documentary, which was premiered in the UK on March 4, will be screened in countries across the globe - including Switzerland, Norway and Canada - to mark International Women's Day.

Low temperatures, sleet and freezing rain caused the program organizers to cancel the opening ceremony for the event, but the conditions did not stop the volunteers who placed the more than 400 truckloads of wreaths that were transported from across the country by volunteer drivers using donated trucking and diesel.
2016 marked the 25th year that wreaths have been placed by volunteers at Arlington National Cemetery. The program grew to be a nationwide event to honor and remember fallen veterans and their service. In 1992, Morrill Worcester, a wreath maker from Maine, had 5,000 extra wreaths, and decided to bring them to Arlington National Cemetery to honor fallen veterans. Worcester brought 5,000 wreaths to Arlington without any fanfare for 13 years, but in 2007 the not-for-profit organization, Wreaths Across America was formed. This year, according to Wreaths Across America, volunteers conducted wreath-laying ceremonies and placed 1.2 million remembrance wreaths at 1,228 veterans cemeteries and various other locations in all 50 states. | {

While many players spent the day preparing to finally return to play, some for the first time in close to a year, while some awaited the final cuts of training camp and assignments to the minors or taxi squad, others still were involved in different transactions. The NHL season getting started is the dominant headline, but other pro and junior leagues are already underway and there were plenty of moves to be made involving former and current NHL players and prospects alike:
While oldest brother Jamie has seemingly called it a career after more than 600 NHL games and youngest brother Brock was a lock to make the Carolina Hurricanes roster for a sixth consecutive year, middle child Tye McGinn is of course the odd man out. While the 30-year-old forward has not played on an NHL contract since 2017-18, he has remained a force in the minors on AHL contracts. However, whether he was unable to find another minor league deal or simply unsatisfied with doing so yet again, McGinn is on the move overseas. McGinn has signed a one-year deal with the Fischtown Pinguins of Germany's DEL, the team announced. Fischtown was a playoff team last year and is off to a good start through six games, but the roster is largely devoid of North American experience and McGinn should step into a core role right away.
Fellow former NHL forward Landon Ferraro is also on the move in Germany. After suiting up for the DEL's Eisbaren Berlin last year, Ferraro has been playing for the second-tier Lowen Frankfurt so far this season. However, with the top level back in action, Ferraro has secured a new contract with Kolner Haie, the club announced. The Cologne-based team includes a number of NHL veterans and should be a top contender in the DEL this year.
Back across the Atlantic, the AHL's Binghamton Devils have signed AHL veteran Cameron Darcy to a one-year deal. The former Tampa Bay Lightning prospect spent last season with the San Antonio Rampage, recording 18 points in 45 games. The two-way center is entering his sixth pro campaign and will play in his 250th AHL game in his season debut.
Jack and Nick Poehling, the twin brothers of Montreal Canadiens top prospect Ryan Poehling, are on their way to AHL training camp after being recalled by the Ontario Reign. The duo left St. Cloud State University last spring after four seasons, one year after Ryan's early departure, and signed a one-year deal with the Reign, AHL affiliate of the Los Angeles Kings. However, given the AHL's delayed start, they got their pro careers started on loan to the ECHL's Greenville Swamp Rabbits. While the Poehling brothers are no Sedin twins, they were top scorers for a strong St. Cloud program in their senior year and could make an impact for Ontario this season.

Several Players Claimed Off Waivers
January 12, 2021 at 11:06 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 9 Comments
With the sheer number of players on waivers yesterday, you could bet at least a couple would be claimed by teams in need of added depth. Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports that the Carolina Hurricanes have claimed Anton Forsberg (EDM), the San Jose Sharks have claimed Rudolfs Balcers (OTT), the New Jersey Devils have claimed Eric Comrie (WPG) and the Nashville Predators have claimed Luca Sbisa (WPG). The rest of the 100+ players have all cleared.
Forsberg, 28, returns to the organization he played for last season, an interesting move given the Hurricanes did not re-sign him in the offseason. The veteran goaltender has spent time with the Columbus Blue Jackets and Chicago Blackhawks as well but has been limited to minor league duty for most of the past two years. In 2019-20 he played three games for the Hurricanes, posting an .897 save percentage. In the minor leagues, he had a .905. Forsberg will likely serve as the team's third goaltender this season but would have to clear waivers in order to go to the taxi squad. Perhaps the team believes they can slip him through in a few days after carrying three goaltenders for the first part of the season.
The Oilers now must find another option for their own taxi squad, though Dylan Wells or Stuart Skinner could fill that role for the time being. Both goaltenders are waiver-exempt, though they were destined to fill the net in the minor leagues this season. The Hurricanes did put Alex Nedeljkovic on waivers today, though with the complicated salary cap dance the Oilers are performing they may not be able to fit him in on the NHL roster at this point.
Balcers, 23, is also rejoining a familiar organization, heading back to the team that drafted him in 2015. The young Latvian forward was part of the Erik Karlsson deal in 2018 and has played 51 games for the Senators over the last two seasons. His name was a surprising one on waivers yesterday, given how well he has played in the minor leagues so far in his short career. Balcers has 115 points in 143 career AHL games, including 56 goals. For a team still just barely turning the corner on a rebuild, it's hard to watch a young prospect disappear for nothing.
Where he fits into the San Jose lineup isn't clear at all, but Balcers is worth a claim if you believe that he can still become a regular in the NHL. The Sharks need young talent as badly as anyone.
Comrie becomes the answer in New Jersey, where the Devils suddenly lost Corey Crawford to retirement and needed some depth at the goaltending position. Whether he can actually help them at the NHL level is still to be determined, given the 25-year-old goaltender has just an .868 save percentage in eight career games. Comrie has been an excellent option for the Manitoba Moose however, including posting a .918 save percentage last season after returning to the Jets organization (he was claimed by Arizona, traded to Detroit, and then claimed back by the Jets all in the span of a few months during the 2019-20 season).
Sbisa is an interesting one, given his long history at the NHL level. The 30-year-old defenseman has played in 548 games over a long career, including 44 last season with the Jets. As we wrote last month, the Predators were in dire need of another depth defenseman if only to provide some injury insurance this season and they've now found just the player. Sbisa can come in and out for them whenever needed but costs very little with an $800K contract. Still, Jarred Tinordi may end up the casualty here, though it seems likely he would clear waivers if necessary.

San Jose Sharks Sign Fredrik Claesson To One-Year Deal
January 11, 2021 at 3:05 pm CDT | by Holger Stolzenberg Leave a Comment
Jan 11: The Sharks have officially announced the Claesson contract, while also placing him on waivers earlier today. GM Doug Wilson released a short statement:
Fredrik is a strong defensive player who has the ability to shut down the opposition quickly. His NHL experience provides value to our organization's defensive depth. We are happy to have him.
Jan 10: The San Jose Sharks have added some depth on their defense, signing free agent Fredrik Claesson to a one-year, two-way contract, according to CapFriendly. The deal includes a $700K NHL salary as well as $200K in the AHL, although $300K is guaranteed.
The 28-year-old Claesson has spent quite a bit of time in the NHL, having appeared already in 155 contests, but will be joining his fifth franchise already, including four teams in the last two years. A talented player, known for his hard slapshot, Claesson played 113 games with the Ottawa Senators, the team who drafted him, but due to defensive concerns, the team opted not to offer him a qualifying offer. He signed with the New York Rangers in July 2018 and played 37 games for them, but also wasn't given a qualifying offer. He then signed with the Carolina Hurricanes last season, but never played for the NHL squad. He was traded at the trade deadline to the New Jersey Devils in the Sami Vatanen deal and played five games for New Jersey before play was suspended. The Devils did not bring him back.
Claesson's addition could suggest that the team needs depth in their system. Top-four defenseman Radim Simek said several days ago that his knee continues to hurt from last season. The addition of Claesson would suggest the Sharks are worried about Simek and hope that Claesson can fill a void in their system. If Simek goes down for any time, it's likely that second-year defenseman Mario Ferraro would move up into the top-four, opening a spot on the third pairing, where Claesson would at least get a shot.

New Jersey Devils Sign Jesper Bratt To Two-Year Deal
January 10, 2021 at 5:05 pm CDT | by Holger Stolzenberg 2 Comments
It took a bit longer than everyone hoped for the two sides to find common ground, but the New Jersey Devils announced they have signed restricted free agent Jesper Bratt to a two-year, $5.5MM deal, with a $2.75 AAV. With the start of the season days away, Bratt will miss at least the first three games of the season as he now must apply for a work visa, travel from Sweden to New Jersey and then quarantine for seven days before he can join the team.
The breakdown of the deal is as follows (via Fourth Period's David Pagnotta):
Bratt, 22, will still be a restricted free agent when this two-year deal expires, but the forward will then have arbitration rights, something he didn't have here, which is what forced the holdout.
It's a big signing for the Devils, who are putting together quite a bit of talent on their top-six. Bratt is a key piece to their youth movement. He put up solid numbers last year, scoring a career-high 16 goals and 32 points in 60 games and could be ready to take that next step. He led the team with 15 even-strength goals last season and didn't spend much time on the power play, something that could change this year. Bratt was a sixth-round pick in 2016, but needed just one year before surprising many when he made the Devils' roster for the 2017-18 season as a 19 year old, scoring 13 goals in his rookie campaign. His numbers dipped a bit in his sophomore year, but now is beginning to look like a key piece to the Devils' rebuild.
With Bratt signed, there are only four remaining RFA's unsigned, including Winnipeg's Jack Roslovic, New York Islanders' Dmytro Timashov and Florida's duo of Henrik Borgstrom and Aleksi Saarela. The deadline for RFA's to sign for this year is Feb. 11.
NHL beat writer Brennan Klak was the first to report the signing.

East Notes: Zibanejad, Islanders, Devils, Voracek, Marchand
The New York Rangers have been trending upwards as they look forward to the upcoming season. However, one troubling aspect of training camp is the fact that their team leader and MVP Mika Zibanejad has missed the entirety of training camp with no explanation for his absence (standard league policy).
However, The Athletic's Rick Carpiniello (subscription required) writes that Zibanejad did skate Saturday before the team's practice, suggesting he might be close to returning to the team. Head coach David Quinn said that Zibanejad has "had a couple of good days."
The 27-year-old center had a breakout season last year, scoring 41 goals in 57 games and will be looked upon to lead the team once again.
The New York Islanders and general manager Lou Lamoriello signed Mathew Barzal to a three-year deal early Saturday, but there was hope that the two sides could agree to a six-year pact instead, according to The Athletic's Arthur Staple (subscription required). The two sides were discussing a deal similar to the six-year, $9.25MM contract that Colorado's Mikko Rantanen signed last year, but the Islanders could not make that work. The hope was the team could unload the contracts of Leo Komarov and/or Thomas Hickey to free up the necessary cap room, but no team was willing to take either contract.
The New Jersey Devils could be looking the trade route to fill its backup goaltending spot on the roster after veteran Corey Crawford announced his retirement. The Athletic's Corey Masisak (subscription required) writes that they might be looking towards the Arizona Coyotes, who have quite a bit of goaltending depth, including Adin Hill, who Arizona would have to pass through waivers to get on the taxi squad. That could give New Jersey a chance to trade for Antti Raanta, who is in the last year of his contract and is earning $4.25MM.
Philadelphia Flyers head coach Alain Vigneault is completely focused on a long playoff run this season and has sent a message to veteran Jakub Voracek, who was moved off the first-team power play in practice and was told to step up, according to Philadelphia Enquirer's Marcus Hayes. Voracek scored just 12 goals during the regular season, but especially struggled during the Flyers' seven-game playoff series against the New York Islanders in which he had just one point. "I talked to Jake about this. I challenged him about this season. There's a man who's been in the league for a long time," Vigneault said. "Basically, he's won two playoff rounds." Other young players are ready to take bigger roles on the team, including Oskar Lindblom, Nolan Patrick and Joel Farabee, which could put even more pressure on Voracek.
Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand, who is coming off sports hernia surgery, left practice early Sunday, according to Boston Globe's Matt Porter. The 32-year-old was given a four-month recovery window in September, but Marchand returned early from that prognosis. While there is no word on why he left practice early, head coach Bruce Cassidy said he was getting treatment and doesn't believe the injury is serious. He is a game-time decision for Monday's scrimmage.

Minor Transactions: 1/9/21
January 9, 2021 at 6:49 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose Leave a Comment
With NHL training camps nearing their completion, unsigned players are now facing a crunch to find a place to play for the rest of the year, whether it's in North America or overseas. We'll keep track of any players who find a new home here.
New Jersey's farm team in Binghamton announced the signings of wingers Danick Martel and Travis St. Denis plus goaltender Jeremy Brodeur to one-year, AHL contracts. Martel split last season between Tampa Bay and Florida's farms, notching 20 goals and 19 assists in 60 games. He has 13 career games of NHL experience under his belt. Denis spent the last four years in the Islanders' system, tallying 136 points in 259 games in that span. As for Brodeur, who is the son of Hall of Famer Martin, he split last year between the SPHL and Bulgaria and at this point, probably won't play any higher than the ECHL level this coming season.
Winger Ryan Gropp has joined Vasterviks of the Allsvenskan in Sweden, per a team release. The 24-year-old played in 36 games last season with AHL Hartford, affiliate of the Rangers but it wasn't enough to secure a qualifying offer as he was non-tendered by New York back in October.

Poll: How Should New Jersey Replace Corey Crawford?
January 8, 2021 at 9:30 pm CDT | by Zach Leach 13 Comments
There has been no shortage of praise for young New Jersey Devils netminder Mackenzie Blackwood over the past two years. The 24-year-old goalie has already posted back-to-back seasons with a save percentage of .915 or better over a combined 70 appearances. Last year, he got the results to boot, recording a 2214-8 record – a .591 points percentage versus the Devils' .493 points percentage on the year. Yet, New Jersey still went out and signed veteran keeper Corey Crawford to a substantial two-year deal this off-season. The move signaled that the Devils do not believe that Blackwood is ready to be a workhorse solo act just yet. So, now that Crawford has taken an indefinite leave of absence from the team, what comes next for the Devils in net? New Jersey trusts Blackwood to carry the load in an emergency, but the club does not want to start off a fresh season already short-handed.
How should the Devils replace Crawford?
Although Crawford is currently gone, there is still no word as to the reasoning nor any projected timeline for his return. Rather than make a move, the Devils could simply look at their internal options to pair with Blackwood for the time being and hope that Crawford's absence is not too lengthy. Veteran Scott Wedgewood made his return to New Jersey as a free agent this off-season and could be the top option to back up Blackwood as things currently stand. Wedgewood, 28, has 24 games of NHL experience with middling results. He also has considerable AHL experience, but after years as a top workhorse in the league, his numbers have tailed off of late. Wedgewood would be a safe choice given his familiarity with the NHL game, but lacks upside. On the flip side, there is Gilles Senn. Senn, 24, is only in his second season in North America, but already played two games with New Jersey last season. The Swiss wunderkind has been playing games at a top pro level as a teen as well. While he is not yet a polished product and is still adjusting to the competition level of the NHL and AHL, Senn is certainly not afraid of the pressure and is arguably the superior talent to Wedgewood. Evan Cormier, 23, struggled in the AHL and ECHL last year and is not a realistic candidate for an NHL job. So are Wedgewood and/or Senn enough? Or do the Devils need to look elsewhere?
The simplest way to add a goaltender to the mix would simply be to sign one. However, there are not many options to choose from. The top possibility maybe long-time Detroit Red Wing Jimmy Howard, simply because he is an established NHL goaltender and is not currently tied up in a PTO. Yet, there is a genuine question as to whether the sun has set on Howard's career. Of the 57 NHL goalies who made at least 20 appearances last year, Howard finished dead last in both save percentage and goals against average. At 35, he may be done and not worth another look. However, 2019-20 did mark a steep drop-off in performance for Howard, who had remained a sold starter prior and was an elite keeper for Detroit as recently as 2016-17. So perhaps there is hope for another go-round for Howard.
A similar option to Howard, an aging vet whose play fell off considerably last season but has a long track record of success is Craig Anderson. The former Ottawa Senators starter is currently on a PTO with the Washington Capitals, though. Are the Devils willing to wait for the Capitals' decision? And if so, is Anderson really much better than Howard, especially given his greater age and injury history?
Another option on a PTO, though expected to be released, is Scott Darling. Darling spent last season overseas, but is back in North America looking for an opportunity. When last he played in the NHL, Darling struggled greatly in two seasons with the Carolina Hurricanes. However, he was playing in the starter's role at that time. Prior to Carolina, Darling was an incredibly effective backup – arguably the league's best – in three seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks. Could the possibility that he returns to form in a fallback role behind Blackwood combined with his familiarity with Crawford make him the top candidate?
Ex-Devil Cory Schneider is also awaiting the results of a PTO with the New York Islanders, but either way a reunion seems unlikely. Mike Condon is another option and while he has shown promise in the past, two straight horrendous seasons make it difficult to trust him. Zane McIntyre and Richard Bachman round out the list of uninspiring free agent options.
Trade/Waivers
Of course, the Devils have the best chance to find a more suitable backup in the much deeper pool of already-signed players. While they could go the direct route and pursue a trade, there are also going to be numerous strong options available on waivers in the coming days, including the Anaheim Ducks' Anthony Stolarz who already hit the wire today. Here are some other trade and waivers possibilities:
Adin Hill, Arizona Coyotes
Dustin Tokarski, Buffalo Sabres
Louis Domingue, Calgary Flames
Alex Nedeljkovic, Carolina Hurricanes
Calvin Pickard, Detroit Red Wings
Anton Forsberg, Edmonton Oilers
Andrew Hammond, Minnesota Wild
Charlie Lindgren, Montreal Canadiens
Keith Kinkaid, New York Rangers
Alex Lyon, Philadelphia Flyers
Jon Gillies, St. Louis Blues
Aaron Dell, Toronto Maple Leafs
Michael Hutchinson, Toronto Maple Leafs
Oscar Dansk, Vegas Golden Knights
Pheonix Copley, Washington Capitals
Eric Comrie, Winnipeg Jets
With some established NHL backups, plenty of intriguing young options, and even soma familiar faces like Kinkaid and Domingue, the Devils certainly have plenty to choose from. Do they feel the need to make a trade and give up assets? Or can they hold out for waivers? Or is all the uncertainty just too much for a situation that needs an immediate and clear solution?
Stand pat, scour the remnants of the open market, or make a move for a signed player? What do you think the Devils should do in light of the news of Crawford's indefinite leave?

The New Jersey Devils have announced that goaltender Corey Crawford, who had already been absent from the last several days of training camp, will take an indefinite leave of absence from the club due to personal reasons.
Crawford, 36, signed a two-year, $7.8MM deal with the Devils in the offseason to become the partner and mentor for young Mackenzie Blackwood, who has shown starter-level promise in his short NHL career. The veteran netminder has spent his entire career to this point with the Chicago Blackhawks and actually had a nice bounce-back campaign in 2019-20. After dealing with lingering concussion issues, Crawford returned to post a .917 save percentage in 40 appearances last season.
There's no information on why he is taking the leave or how long Crawford is expected to be away from the team. About as beloved of a teammate as you can find in the NHL, the entire hockey world is wishing him well.
The Devils will need to find a replacement goaltender for the time being and their depth chart isn't exactly bursting with NHL options. Scott Wedgewood holds the most experience of the group with 24 NHL games, but hasn't seen any time at that level since 2017-18. One suggestion from David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period is Scott Darling, who is expected to be released from his professional tryout with the Florida Panthers and would be an unrestricted free agent.

RFA Deadline Approaching Quickly
January 7, 2021 at 5:26 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 1 Comment
In a normal season, even restricted free agents that miss all of training camp have plenty of time to sign. To be eligible to play, they must have a contract signed and filed with the league by December 1, nearly two months after a normal NHL season begins. Two years ago we saw a negotiation go down to the witching hour between the Toronto Maple Leafs and William Nylander, with the young forward eventually signing a six-year, $45MM deal just before the deadline. Nylander was in the lineup by December 6, though he never seemed to get comfortable and ended up having arguably his worst season as a professional.
With a few notable restricted free agents still unsigned, now less than a week before the season begins, it's important to note that they don't have that two-month in-season window anymore. In fact, it's less than a month between the start of the regular season and the RFA signing deadline of February 11 in this unique, shortened campaign.
That means for Jack Roslovic, Jesper Bratt, and, most importantly, Mathew Barzal, the clock is ticking. If they are not signed by that date, they cannot play this season at all.
In Roslovic's case, the negotiations have led to a formal trade request. That doesn't mean the only way he plays this season is with another team, but it certainly should inspire confidence that he'll be inking a deal with the Winnipeg Jets anytime soon. The 23-year-old forward hasn't gotten a ton of playing time in Winnipeg's deep forward group but did generate 12 goals and 29 points last season in 71 games. Selected 25th overall in 2015 he obviously believes a change of scenery would be beneficial to his career, and it's hard to argue that at this point given where he'll still slot in on the Jets depth chart. If Winnipeg doesn't give in or doesn't receive an acceptable offer though, that signing deadline will put a lot of pressure on Roslovic to take whatever deal he can get just so he doesn't spend an entire year away from NHL ice.
For Bratt, it doesn't seem as contentious, but Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reported recently that the New Jersey Devils forward is still in Sweden and there is a "bit of a gap" between the two sides. New Jersey just spent another $2MM on Sami Vatanen in free agency and, like in all of these situations, every day that passes gives another player a chance to show what they can do at camp. Perhaps playing in the SHL would be an option for the 22-year-old Bratt, but after a 32-point season in 2019-20 you would think he'd want to be part of what they're building in New Jersey. He has just over a month to get something done if he wants to be there this season.
There are technically some other restricted free agents, including names like Henrik Borgstrom and Aleksi Saarela of the Florida Panthers, but they are already playing overseas and don't have the kind of track record of the three mentioned.
That brings us to Barzal, who is one of the most fascinating stories of training camp so far. He was listed on the New York Islanders camp roster, but hasn't appeared on the ice as the negotiations continue. Like any other situation that includes GM Lou Lamoriello, there is little information coming out, but Friedman discussed it today on the radio, explaining that this situation is not like some of the other high profile RFAs that have been in the news lately:
I don't look at this situation here and see—like we know obviously there is a issue with [Pierre-Luc] Dubois in Columbus and we know there is an issue with [Patrik] Laine in Winnipeg, I don't get any sense there is an issue with Barzal and the Islanders.
That doesn't mean they have forever though, as not only has Barzal now missed a chunk of the already-shortened training camp, he'll need a new deal before that February 11 deadline if he wants to play at all. For the Islanders, who have their eyes fixed squarely on a playoff spot in the tough East Division, missing Barzal even for a single game would have grave repercussions. The heartbeat of their offensive attack, the 23-year-old has 207 points through his first 234 NHL games and is expecting quite the salary bump on any contract.
The deadline isn't two months into the season anymore. It's just about a dozen games.

New Jersey Devils Sign Sami Vatanen
January 7, 2021 at 1:06 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 4 Comments
The New Jersey Devils have brought back a familiar face, signing free agent defenseman Sami Vatanen to a one-year deal. The contract is worth $2MM this season and leaves him an unrestricted free agent once again next offseason.
Vatanen, 29, spent parts of three seasons with the Devils before a midseason trade took him to the Carolina Hurricanes last year. As he was dealing with an injury at the time, he failed to play in a single regular season game with the Hurricanes before the season was shut down. He did suit up seven times in the postseason, but that's all the Hurricanes have to show for a package that included Janne Kuokkanen and a 2020 third-round pick. Now the Devils have their cake and are eating it too as Vatanen returns on a very reasonable deal.
The Devils had already added some new faces to the back end this offseason, acquiring Ryan Murray from the Columbus Blue Jackets and signing Dmitry Kulikov to a one-year deal. With Vatanen's new short-term deal, it means only Damon Severson is signed through the 2022-23 season among Devils (one-way) defensemen. That could lead to some pretty impressive turnover in the coming months, especially when considering the organization has several top defensive prospects like Ty Smith, Reilly Walsh, and Kevin Bahl waiting in the wings.
Of course, even though Vatanen is coming in late to the party, that doesn't mean he's a player to overlook. The veteran defenseman has been a do-it-all option throughout his entire career, lining up in all situations and logging huge minutes. In 434 games he has recorded 194 points, a nice 82-game average of 36. It's hard to find that kind of offensive production on the free agent defensive market at any time, let alone a few days before the season begins. Vatanen, who is right-handed, also has experience playing both sides and could end up on the left regularly in New Jersey.

DevOps, another software development approach, is closely tied to Agile. DevOps relies on strong communication between the development team (the people building the technology) and the operations team (the people who will use it).

News From Our Churches Other
Trivia question
How many churches are included in Classis East of the PRCA? And how many in Classis West? Answer later in this column.
Minister activities
Prof. R. Dykstra (PRCA Seminary) accepted the call from Byron Center PRC. He was installed on June 27 with Prof. B. Gritters leading the service. The inaugural sermon was preached in the evening, with a short program and refreshments following.
Hudsonville PRC called Rev. W. Bruinsma (Pittsburgh PRC). Rev. Bruinsma was led to decline this call.
Rev. R. Barnhill (Peace PRC-Dyer, IN) declined the call from Wingham PRC.
Kalamazoo PRC also called Rev. R Barnhill. God led Rev. Barnhill to decline this call.
Crete PRC formed a trio of Rev. J. Engelsma (Doon PRC), Rev. N. Decker (Grandville PRC), and Rev. C. Spronk (Faith PRC). From this trio a call was extended to Rev. Engelsma, who accepted it on July 11.
The PRC Synod extended a call to Rev. C. Griess as replacement for Prof. B. Gritters in the PR Seminary as Professor of Practical Theology and New Testament Studies. On July 11, Rev. Griess accepted this call.
The final worship services of Bethel PRC (Roselle, IL) were held on June 27. May the Lord continue to be with the congregation and her former pastor, Rev. D. Lee, as they experience the disbanding of this dear congregation.
We remember in prayer Rev. Dennis Lee, Rev. John Marcus, and their families as they are presently without a charge and wait upon the Lord's will. We also remember in prayer Rev. Martyn McGeown and his wife as they await final approval from the government so he may come and take up his labors in Providence PRC (Hudsonville, MI). Rev. McGeown preached his farewell sermon in Limerick June 27 and spent the month of July organizing many important matters in preparation for traveling to the USA to take up his work in Providence PRC. Please keep Rev. McGeown, Larisa, and the saints in Limerick and Ballymena in your prayers during this time of transition.
Seminary activities
The seminary is now in her summer break. Continue to pray for the seminary in all her needs. The faculty keeps busy with preparation for the next term as well as with other activities, and many of the students return to their summer jobs. The staff is present to assist with any needs you may have. The seminary, including the library and bookstore, are open daily (M-F, 8-5) during the summer months, except for holidays.
Senior seminary student Josiah Tan (Covenant ERC, Singapore) was examined at the PRC Synod (June 8-10), with Synod informing Covenant ERC that they judged the brother worthy to be declared eligible for a call to the ministry. We rejoice with the brother and his wife in God's goodness and pray that he will soon find a place to serve in Christ's church. He plans to leave the U.S. on July 13.
The internship of Seminarian Marcus Wee (Covenant ERC, Singapore) started July 1 and will run through the end of the year. He has been assigned to Faith PRC (Jenison, MI) with Rev. C. Spronk serving as his mentor.
Seminarian Matt Koerner (entering his junior year) has been licensed to speak a word of edification in the churches. As of May 30 he has begun preaching in various PRCs, including out west this summer.
Work continues on the Spring 2021 issue of the PRTS Journal. If you wish to be added to the mailing list, please call or email the seminary. (The Journal is free.)
Seminary Conference: What is preaching? What does it mean to preach the gospel? How does one preach the commands of Scripture? What is application in preaching? Make plans now to hear four speeches by the seminary professors, under the conference theme "The Lord Gave the Word: Preaching the Gospel." The conference will be hosted by Trinity PRC, on the late afternoon and evening of October 28 and 29. More details will follow.
Evangelism activities
The Young Calvinists hosted a speech on "Personal Evangelism," given by Seminarian Josiah Tan at Hudsonville PRC on June 30. Refreshments followed. All were encouraged to bring a friend, and enjoy this important message!
Congregational activities
The congregation in Lynden, WA changed the times of their worship service on June 27 to 9:00 and 11:00 a.m. This was due to the forecast for record high temperatures there. While average temps for that date are in the upper 70's…all forecasts indicated God would warm up the area to about 105 degrees. Lynden PRC is not air-conditioned. So Lynden could do as missionary pastor Rev. Daniel Kleyn has often done—issue a warm welcome to those in attendance! A taste of Redlands, perhaps!
Young People's activities
The Western Young People's Retreat took place June 28-July 2 at Camp Sanders in Idaho. The theme of the retreat was "Restraining My Feet from Evil," from Psalm 119:101. Rev. R. Hanko and Rev. M. De Boer from Edgerton PRC (MN) were scheduled to speak. We pray that God might have used this retreat for the spiritual growth of all who attended and also as a time of fellowship to build up and strengthen one another in the Lord. Oh yes, it was warm!
Senior retreat!
Save the date for the 2022 Senior Retreat to be hosted by Grace PRC. The dates for the retreat will be September 20-23, 2022. It will be held at the Blue Gate Garden Inn and Conference Center in Shipshewana, Indiana. More information and details to follow.
Trivia answer
There are 19 churches in Classis East of the PRC, and with the loss of Bethel PRC in Roselle, IL there are now 14 churches in Classis West. Membership totals continue to be about twice as many persons in Classis East than there are in Classis West. More trivia next time.

There`s nothing better than really colossal mistakes to help teach you valuable lessons in your business and your life. I`m particularly interested in your marketing missteps - what was the goof and did you learn your lesson?I can recall the heady days of the early 2000`s, when I first set foot into Google AdWords. It was all so simple, right - choose some keywords, set a budget and cost per click, and start getting traffic - sweet! A bunch of wasted budget later, it became obvious that while it wasn`t rocket science, it takes careful strategy, monitoring and analysis to be successful in that system.So how about you, help us all learn from your screw ups!
I`ve made too many mistakes to even bother talking about them. I`d need an entire web site. The worst marketing mistake I made was being company-centered or product-centered instead of customer-centered.
But seriously, that is the point right - would you even trust someone who said they`ve never been part of something that`s tanked? My reaction to that would be that that person has never taken a risk.
I can relate to Google AdWords, after my experience with Yahoo`s Sponored Search. I saw 30 days of advertising budget disappear in one week and nothing to show, except a non-productive campaign.
Live and learn, right. Who knows, that campaign is currently paused, I might give it another try.
Well, that`s life in the bay area in the early 2000s. Get hired, get laid off. Get hired, get laid off.
Yep, I was in Seattle, same story - everyone I knew seemed to be getting laid off (including me), it was kinda surreal. I know that at least some of us learned some lessons about customer value, business models, priorities, etc. from that experience.
Yep, the money isn`t endless, and only those who have built a solid foundation with some real competitive advantage are going to survive the inevitable downturn.So come on, there have to be some more clear cut gaffes from a marketing perspective out there - don`t be shy, we`ve all been there, give us the nitty gritty!
My marketing goofs revolve around poor spelling and lack of proofing. I was preparing for a major seminar/show and had new business cards and handouts printed. i received them the day before I left and didn`t notice the error in my website URL until I was heading to the show floor. The printing was only a couple $100 but the cost of the trip and missed business potential was substantially more.
I now plan further in advance and have everything proofed by 2 other people in my firm before I commit.
One mistake I made was to get in involved with small time directory book publishers. The books are often ignored by the customers who tend to just use the main local telco or Yellowbook directory.
I also joined a business association thinking it would boost my visability. The reallity is that it did not.
My advice is to spend money for advertizing where customers are looking. Google ads (yahoo and msn as well), Yellowbook, local telco book, and direct mail to those businesses who will need your goods or services.
Thanks Mark - definitely reinforces the need to set up a thoughtful strategy about how you allocate those precious marketing dollars. Understanding your audience and the where/when/how of reaching them is a must.
As I was reading, I had one thought in mind. Then this horribly embarrassing moment popped into my head. Thought I had forgotten it, but, no, it`s still buried in there.
This one was embarrassing. I was reading about different marketing ideas, and I read somewhere that you could have fun with your job title, make yourself more approachable. So, I (an accountant, not a birthday clown) had business cards made up with my job title being Head Honcho. I got a job with a really major contact in the county. The main guy and two of his office workers came to my office for a meeting. When we were finished, I handed him my card. (I know, you`re cringing already aren`t you?) He looked at it, and raised his eyebrows. I lost the account about three weeks later. There were many reasons, certainly not because I was the Head Honcho. But, I realized that if it appeared that I wasn`t taking myself seriously, how could I expect the manager of a large organization to take me seriously? Those cards went in the trash.
I guess I have to add mine, after reading everyone else`s. I bought and sent out some really pretty pens, imprinted with my business, to prospects nationwide. A couple of the envelopes came back as "no such number", or some such, and the pens inside the envelopes were in pieces! I was mortified, wondering how many people received my beautiful, imprinted, BROKEN pens.My lesson? I don`t send out pens anymore. Sticky pads don`t break.
I love it, now we`re getting at some advice - I totally concur with Nikole that people should be more open about discussing these "learning experiences". As I said before, it lends a huge amount of credibility if you can point to these types of incidents - as Michael perfectly points out, there`s a real skill to taking a lump and effectively learning from it and building on it.Pat, such a great post, thanks for sharing those experiences - I`m sure anyone who has ever done a print piece in their life has had an experience like that - what a feeling when you see it printed on a thousand pieces of collateral!
I had quite an instructive experience, recently. I was chatting with a nice gent who`s based in London and who works in business technology. I sent him a copy of a recent piece of mine, an invited paper for a series on "Men Who Made a New Science," having to do with my work on the quantum basis of mind & brain. He was puzzled as to why I sent it, which perplexed me in turn.I replied that, since he had an interest in technology, that perhaps this new realm of inquiry might also interest him. He then wanted to know whether I thought the work had technological implications. I was floored. My work has directly to do with quantum mechanics, which has given us lasers, microchips and nuclear energy. I wrote back, explaining how all of science rests on physics and all of technology, too. So that, when the foundations of physics shift, so too with all the rest of the structure built upon it -- i.e., all of science and technology. He answered by way of a stunned silence. But since then, all sorts of high powered financial and tech interests have been dropping by to visit my web site, including the biggest names in the biz.Quanta & ConsciousnessWell... I`ve been a tech geek since infancy. I have always known that science and technology are joined at the hip. But it got me to thinking how, when they first put GPS satellites into orbit, they had to convince the engineers to correct for relativistic changes in the satellites` clocks. Engineers! Apparently, they thought relativity was just some fancy nonsense having no bearing on the real world! My mistake was a basic one. I assumed that what was obvious to me was likewise plain as day to everyone else. (Doh!)Of course, this is all so new, and so "out there," that many people understandably wonder whether there`s anything in it. Happily, the AAAI & Stanford U are hosting a symposium on this stuff later this month, so it seems we`ve gone mainstream. | {

Zappa's appearing on the show as 'a man who plays the bicycle' which he proceeds to do with both drumstick and violin bow. So far so normal – anyone left in a room alone with a bike, drumsticks and bow would do the same (or is that just me?) – and Zappa plays along with the joshing tone of the host. The radical part comes when he leads an improvised piece for the house band, pre-recorded tape and two bicycles around 12 minutes into the clip. It's played for laughs so prefigures much of Zappa's later work which would combine broad comedy with serious musicianship. The use of atonality, improvisation and non-musical sounds were already part and parcel of the avant-garde in 1962 but I think – and at the age of 5 I admit my scope would have been limited – not widely present on mainstream TV. | {

If you wanted to get an amateur radio license but never had the time, now is your opportunity! The FCC has changed the rules so that no Morse Code proficiency is required. To obtain the entry-level Technician license, all one has to do is pass a multiple-choice exam. With a Technician Class License, one may participate in Amateur Radio and enjoy privileges for operation on some of the HF amateur bands, use of VHF&UHF repeaters, participation in local Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES), the annual American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Field Day, and many other activities. We will be holding "HAMCRAM 101″in ED-103 from 9:00 am thru approximately 1:30 or 2pm. We will have a short morning break, as well as a break for lunch. Following the HAMCRAM, we will run through a few practice exams and Q&A in preparation for the testing session which will begin at 3:30PM. The course will provide participants with an overview of the requirements needed to pass the FCC Technician License exam.
Pre-study using the materials linked below is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED, since it is not possible to teach all of the material in one cram session as this. At 3:30 pm the FCC examination will be given by ARRL-certified Volunteer Examiners (VEs). One does not have to attend the HAM CRAM 101 or pay for admission to TCF to attend the exam session. An exam fee ($15.00) must be paid by each examinee. Two forms of identification (at least one must have your photograph) will be required to take the exam. All license exams will be offered (Technician, General and Extra) at this testing session. If upgrading, bring an original and a photocopy of your current license. Results of your test will be provided after the exam session is completed.
The slides and material for the ham cram can be found here. A truly wonderful and free study guide can be found at http://www.kb6nu.com/tech-manual/. Online practice exams are also of great benefit, http://qrz.com/hamtest/. Students are urged to take advantage of these resources. | {

Most small businesses in developing countries transact only with local or regional buyers, in part because they don't have inexpensive, safe, fast ways to send or receive long-distance payments. This can be a major challenge to growth—a study sponsored by eBay showed that merchants who earn at least 25% of their revenues through cross-border trade grow faster than those with less or no cross-border activity. Given that small businesses success earns eBay more income, the online marketplace is working to facilitate cross-border trade, in part by making electronic payments more accessible and convenient through its e-payments service Paypal.
Today, Paypal is available in 203 countries, and in 23 different currencies. It offers reduced fee programs to small businesses that quality, and it has partnerships with banks like First National Bank of South Africa and Interbank in Peru, both of which allow small business customers to easily move money between their bank and Paypal accounts to allow for more efficient and cheaper sending, receiving, and reconciling of international payments. The Interbank partnership has allowed businesses like Alpaca Expeditions, a Peruvian adventure tours company with an international clientele, to grow its business to include $500,000 in online transactions processed through Paypal. | {

Hotel Combermere , Opp. Tourism Lift, The Mall, Shimla, H.P. Phone: +91-177-2651246. Website.
Location of Hotel Combermere on Shimla Mall Road is an absolute winner.
The Ridge and Scandal point are the two main attractions at Shimla. It is most ideal choice, if you want to spend your evenings on the Mall Road or The Ridge, staying at Hotel Combermere is most convenient.
The hotel has a strategic location and a private lift that takes you straight to the most happening part of the Mall. For many, that in itself is the reason to book at Hotel Combermere.
On the flip side, as with most hotels located near to the Mall Road, Hotel Combermere has inadequate parking area.
This is the hotel of choice for those who are little obsessive about staying at the best location on the Shimla Mall Road. Hotel Combermere is located right next to the HTDPC Lift, the most central location in all of Shimla. From the hotel, access to Mall and taxi stand is easy. Hotel has its own private lift to take you to the Mall.
Spacious,clean and adequately furnished rooms with central heating and wall to wall carpet. Rooms on the top floors with higher tariffs offer the best views. Avoid rooms opening to the public lift as it compromises on one's privacy.
In house multi cuisine restaurant, Seventh Heaven, serves Indian, Chinese, Thai and Continental Cuisine. Roof top Cafe Sol is a great place to enjoy pizzas, pastas and a wide selection of pastries. | {

FIVE members of the Staff left at the end of the Summer Term. Mr. G. H. Effron retires after a lifetime of teaching, most of which has been spent in the service of K.E.S. He was first appointed in 1917, on being invalided out of military service ; in 1920 he took up an appointment in St. George's College, the English Public School at Buenos Aires, and in January, 1922, returned to Sheffield. His teaching of Classics, Modern Languages, and Geography, or indeed of any other subject that fell to his lot, was enriched by a lively and discursive interest in the whole life of man, and a shrewd insight into the character of the boy. Outside his official ` subjects ', he has shared with boys his interest in nature-study and experience of foreign travel, and revealed, in the carefree 'thirties, a histrionic talent which became an indispensable feature in that famous old stock company known as the Staff Dramatic Society. With gratitude and affection, we all wish him a long and comfortable retirement.
Others, of more recent vintage, who are now leaving, are : Mr. D. W. Collins, who has been appointed lecturer in Economics at Westminster College, London ; Mr. R. A. Summers, who is going to Sheldon Heath Comprehensive School, Birmingham ; Mr. B. G. H. Gibbs, to Lowestoft Grammar School ; and Mr. S. W. Shaw, to Sowerby Bridge Grammar School. It remains to be seen whether we can acquire another economist with a gift for inspiring cross-country runners, a teacher, of religious knowledge with an inexhaustible store of cricketing information, an English teacher so indefatigable on the School Close, or a handicraft-scoutmaster of such resourceful and willing adaptability. Thanks and good wishes to all of them.
We welcome to the Staff Mr. J. A. Bray, from the Sheffield Training College ; Mr. D. Burke, from the London School of Economics ; Mr. F. D. A. Burns, from Hertford College, Oxford ; Mr. E. J. Green, from the County Technical School, Romford ; Mr. L. J. Slattery, from Eckington Grammar School ; and Mr. V. A. Vout, from Hull University.
A large congregation attended the jubilee Commemoration Service in the Cathedral on May 16th. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Canon E. A. Berrisford, M.A., M.C. (K.E.S. 1906-10), and lessons were read by Dr. J. T. Burdekin, President of the Old Edwardians Association and A. J. Pinion (deputising for the Head Prefect). A collection taken as a thank-offering to the Cathedral Extension Fund amounted to £38 7s. 2d.
The meetings of the British Association in Sheffield (which will be over by the time this Magazine appears) will no doubt attract the attention of many of our senior boys; a particular honour has fallen to one of them, A. E. Hanwell, in being selected to give a twenty-minute paper on " The value of the history of science in the sixth form course."
Speech Day will be held on Thursday, October 18th, in the Victoria Hall, at 7.15 p.m. The guest of honour is a distinguished Old Boy of the School, Sir John Sterndale Bennett, formerly of the Diplomatic Service.
We received a visit in June from Mr. J. B. Clegg (K.E.S. 1919-27), who gave an interesting and helpful talk to senior boys on the Colonial Service. Mr. Clegg is secretary of the Ministry of Commerce in Singapore, and has served in the West Indian administration in Jamaica.
We deeply regret to record that ROGER LEWIS (K.E.S. 1943-52) lost his life in a motor-cycle accident in July of this year.
JAMES MICHAEL BOWER (K.E.S. 1941-48), Officer in the P. and O. Shipping Company, who lost his life in the rescue of the Greek ship Iason in March, 1955, received the posthumous award of the Greek Nautical Medal (1st Class) and the Lloyd's Silver Medal. In commemoration of his name, the P. and O. Company have established, in association With the Royal Lifeboat Institution, a fund for the provision of a " James Michael Bower Award " for future recipients of the Institution's gold and silver medals.

" THE Lord created man of the earth ... counsel, and tongue, and eyes, ears and heart gave He them to understand withal. He filled them with the knowledge of wisdom." Eccl. xvii.
We have gathered in our Cathedral Church to celebrate the jubilee of King Edward VII School -for most of us here present, more naturally " the School "-in which and by which, to use a phrase already well known in the reign of the first Queen Elizabeth, " we were brought up to godliness and the studies of good learning."
Success came to the School indeed in its early years. While some years had yet to run before the School, under its present style and title, had come of age, the Headmaster of a famous public school said to me in Oxford, " Oh, you come from that remarkable King Edward School in Sheffield? " -so rapidly had the fame of the School spread and established itself among the members of the Headmasters' Conference . . . Our purpose this evening is not to recall splendours and successes in detail. In the sonorous language of Ecclesiasticus we have paid our tribute to those who have gained renown by their counsels and by their knowledge ; we have remembered the good-hearted who have and will have no entry on any formal scroll of fame; and, I doubt not, we have saluted in admiration and homage the members of our Society who graduated into the immortal host of death ere, for most of them, the sun of their short day had reached its meridian. In the estimation of character and achievement there is but one abiding test. For, as the voice from ancient Athens proclaims, "the story of famous men is not graven only on stone over their native earth, but lives on far away, without visible symbol, woven into the stuff of other men's lives."
English schoolboys are not given to expressing their inmost feelings ;- yet gratitude there was, deep gratitude, even if it never found expression, not even in later years. Looking back over my own schooldays I am always moved as I realise with a start that masters took as much trouble about us—we must often have been very tiresome and exasperating-as if we had been their own sons. And I have wondered why they should have done so. There is but one explanation-sheer goodness of heart. To them we are debtors all the days of our life.
How much, then, is there for the giving of thanks at our Jubilee Service ! Man's gifts derive from God, and in Him and by Him alone they find their fulfilment, as in Him they found their creation. It was at school that such gifts as we had were evoked, enriched, developed ; for it was there that we were brought up to godliness and the studies of sound learning.
To conclude our year of jubilee celebration, two Open Days of entertainment and display were arranged for June 7th and 8th. On the first the School was open to visitors from 6.30 to 9.30 p.m. and exhibitions were on view in twenty-eight rooms illustrating the work of the various departments. The large number of visitors showed that the idea attracted at least a satisfactory curiosity, and the many appreciative comments suggested that most of the parents went away impressed by the variety of the activities that occupy us daily within these walls.
The treatment of subjects was suitably varied according to their scope and nature. Posters, diagrams, charts and photographs appeared in profusion, and boys were on hand to explain anything from abaci to zygospores, or to perform experiments, or just to carry on work as usual. In some rooms, for instance Geography, a good attempt had been made to indicate the progression of the syllabus as actually operated. From the simpler maps and weather charts we proceeded to more complicated regional studies, and there was a good example of practical fieldwork in the plane table survey of the School Close by D. J. Rolfe and J. C. Heath. Modern Languages were represented chiefly by displays of pictures, maps and books-the spoken language had its turn on the following night. Room 44 became almost a rival to the Art Department with a show of fine reproductions of European art, and contained also a series of poster-biographies of famous Germans (not forgetting Adolf Hitler). Room 46 was a good place for a quiet sit down and a browse on specimens of Form Magazines, those delightful anthologies of hobbies, humours, and horrors.
In Classics some excellent models had been assembled, notably a Roman Amphitheatre by Form 1(4) complete with gladiators, wild beasts and spectators ; a study of the Roman Wall by 1(2) and a Circus by 2(I). The History room showed a collection of items illustrating the history of the School arranged by R. F. Laughton and M. J. Lodge, with a model of the first Grammar School by D. Swift, P. Gurney and J. D. Perry. The Junior History Society contributed records of their visits to historical sites; 1(i) and t (3) produced models of castle and monastery ; and a note of distinguished authenticity was added by " a cloak actually worn by Florence Nightingale."
An Economic Survey of Sheffield in Room 25 dealt with population, occupations, industries and services mainly by means of charts prepared by 6th and 5th Forms, among which J. B. Swift's diagram of the composition of the City Council and contributions by P. K. Maxfield and G. Whitlock were conspicuous. D. M. J. Allen presented a comprehensive selection of press cuttings and opinions on the issue of capital punishment.
The scientific and technical departments naturally lent themselves to attractive visual display, and drew crowded houses. In the Biology laboratory you could have your blood-pressure or lung-capacity tested, study the processes of the heart and stomach in artificial form, or observe more static exhibits of physiological and ecological phenomena (including the Mendelian mice). Some excellent collections of flowers, birds' eggs, and insects, had been organised by 3rd Forms. The senior Chemistry department was devoted mainly to an exciting variety of flames and explosions, and a junior section, mainly in the hands of 3rd Forms, had some instructive practical demonstrations concerned with such things as soap, dyes, invisible inks and non-inflammable fabrics. The Physics laboratories and lecture-room contained many ingenious and picturesque devices, being, with the exception of a cathode ray oscilloscope kindly lent by R. Clarke, things normally seen and done by boys in their physics courses. Mathematics, of course, was able to demonstrate at least its lighter side by means of models, patterns and puzzles ; while Astronomy had an interesting exhibit organised by the flourishing Junior Astronomical Society.
The Art Room, with two adjacent classrooms, housed an extensive display, of which the quantity and anonymity rather diverted attention from individual talent, but one got a broad impression of many-sided work, from the First Form primitives to our talented senior draughtsmen, Rolfe, Wright, Roebuck and Whitlock. On the ground floor, the Woodwork and Metal shops looked much as usual, with boys busily engaged in their own various crafts.
We have still to mention the Gymnasium, where Games, in all their variety, were represented by a very handsome set-out of apparatus, photographs and trophies ; the Large Lecture Room, which became an audition room for recorded musical programmes from Mr. Barnes's tapes ; a room exhibiting photography ; and finally the Library, left in its natural state as a place of retreat or quiet conversation.
For the second evening a programme of entertainment in the Assembly Hall had been arranged, part of it to be simultaneous with an outdoor exhibition of P.T. and games. The state of the weather reduced the latter to a more restricted demonstration in the Gymnasium, which was watched by as many people as could be accommodated, and gave a brief impression of the various athletic activities.
Meanwhile in the Assembly Hall a gradually expanding audience witnessed in succession the Finals of the Spoken English competition, German folksongs, Arthur Hallam (a Morality Play for 1956, written by Mr. D. V. Henry and produced by Mr. R. B. Chalmers), an excerpt in French from M. Pagnol's play Topaze, and incidental musical items. The Spoken English competitors had to contend at first with an unwarmed-up and sometimes transitory audience, but gradually the idea caught on and by the third round (the `original speech') the art of audience-control was being practised with some success. Mr. Claypole's award of first place to J. Buchan was carried unanimously.
The dramatic items had a full house and enthusiastic reception. A few points were lost through under-rehearsal and the generally informal conditions of the show; but inspired improvisation, as always on these occasions, carried the day. In Arthur Hallam, the balloon of complacent jubilation was neatly floated onto the needle-point of Mr. Henry's acute but humane wit. The 'morality' showed an Edwardian of average age, aptitude and ability (typified with appropriate sangfroid by F. A. Smith), wrestling with his ambitions and his choice of special subjects (" There is nothing at all to be said for Technical Drawing ") and its bearing on his problematical career (" I hear I.C.I. are looking for ancient historians "); exorcising in turn the Demon of Sheffield, the Touchstone of Utility, and the Spirit of Enervated Melancholy ; and being interviewed by (or indeed interviewing) the selection board of St. Matilda's College, Oxford. The cast sustained with evident enjoyment the note of satirical self-criticism, and many artful touches showed the hand of a producer from whom more may be expected under more favourable conditions.
The French performance had the dual advantage of T. Williams's linguistic perfection and Mr. Bramhall's brilliant, bold and altogether breath-taking assumption of the role of La Baronne. This made up for any minor deficiencies ; the scene as a whole was rather lacking in climax, but its points were well taken by the obviously intelligent audience.
The Laver-Johnston German choir appeared to have come direct from the Black Forest, but we are assured that they were mainly members of 3rd and 4th Forms. Their excellent programme was highly commended by experts and was universally enjoyed. Madrigals, Catchpole, and a Spanish recital by A. D. P. Briggs, completed an altogether happy evening, none the worse for its spontaneous and informal atmosphere. The big School Plays and Concerts are all very well ; we could do with more of these minor occasions of domestic fun.
Music has naturally, and appropriately, had a big part to play in the celebrations of Jubilee Year, and the School's singers and players have without doubt risen nobly to the occasion.
The term opened with the Jubilee Concert only two weeks away, and gratitude is due to all those who helped to produce it. It proved a grand evening enjoyed by an audience of well over a thousand. The Choir performed outstandingly well as a body, while the excellence of the treble arias, beautifully managed and exactly tuned, and the basses' secure top F's, will be long remembered. The alto line was strong and securely led, and our too few tenors wrought miracles. The Orchestra ranged widely and with credit over greatly differing styles, firmly and vigorously led by Buchan. Polished performances by the Madrigal Group and by Catchpole and Bomber added to the variety of the programme, which is printed in full below.
Exactly a fortnight later there followed the Commemoration Service in the Cathedral, which gave the Choir the opportunity to sing again Stanford's B flat Te Deum, Handel's Ye Boundless Realms of Joy, and the Coronation version of the Old Hundredth. Meanwhile the Madrigal Group prepared further items for the Open Evening, to which Catchpole also contributed a viola solo. On the same occasion, during the Morality Play, the school organ was induced to produce some of its less ecclesiastical noises in incidental variations on (though we are afraid few people noticed it) the old School Song, and C. J. Barnes and P. J. Quarrell mused canonically on the merits of Technical Drawing, with charming effect.
We had hardly mopped our brow when a larger entry than usual for the various music prizes had to receive attention. We were again indebted to Mr. Bullivant for adjudicating the extensive preliminary rounds, and to Mr. Edward Davis of the Training College for undertaking to decide between very closely matched finalists. The standard of performance was higher than usual, except perhaps in the Junior Singing contest, where not all the best people entered. Most performances had obviously received careful preparation, and the importance of this must be stressed. Prizewinners were : Senior Singing-J. R. Williams. Junior Singing-P. J. Quarrell and P. Wileman. Senior Keyboard-R. A. Bomber. Junior Piano-C. J. Barnes. Senior Instrumental-J. P. Catchpole (viola). Junior Instrumental-J. G. McNaught. Senior Composition - R. A. Bomber (String Quartet Movement). Junior Composition-C. J. Barnes (Organ Chorals-Prelude on Adeste fideles).
Jubilee is a time for looking forward as well as backward ; the immediate future is darkened by the inevitable departure of many who have helped to make this and previous years so musically fruitful. Space precludes mention of all by name, but those who follow will perhaps benefit by reading of some typical contributions of great value. A. J. Pinion, after mastering that most difficult of instruments, the French Horn, leaves behind him a flourishing and most promising school of horn-playing which is his own unaided and unprompted creation. J. P. Catchpole has achieved a standard of playing which should provide an aim and inspiration to all instrumentalists who have heard him. Representative of the six violinists who leave is J. L. Madden who, with them, has put in long and enthusiastic service. Among singers we recall that, as a treble soloist in Judas Maccabaeus, Alan Beckett, with an exquisite crescendo on a top G, caused a lady in the gallery to faint with ecstasy, and we are sorry that he and his fellows must leave just as their adult voices are coming to maturity.
Looking further ahead, however, we can see that there are worthy men who will make contributions comparable to theirs. The Orchestra has already welcomed to its ranks J. D. Harris, M. J. Wilson, D. G. Young (violins), and M. R. Edwards and P. Wileman (horns), and there are more to come. If, however, the Orchestra is to maintain its standard of playing, each player must continually strive by regular lessons and practice to improve his technique. A number of instrumentalists are again going to the School Orchestral Summer Course ; this is an aid highly to be recommended, quite apart from its being an enjoyable holiday.
The Music Clubs have as usual not found lunch-hour concerts very practicable in the Summer Term, but we have been most indebted to Mr. Hersee for a series of introductory asks to the Mozart operas broadcast from Glyndebourne.
Wednesday, May 2nd, in the Victoria Hall.
4. UNISON SONG : "Let us now praise famous men "
I am not, reader, by nature a romantic. I do not have nightmares and I do not experience emotions which carry me beyond the bounds of sanity. Indeed, I always read with a certain embarrassment the narrations of the " sensational " school of writers : their vivid dreams and visions often appearing improper rather than celestial to my-possibly Philistine-sensibility. I prefer to sit quietly in the shade and, sipping the waters of life gently, to ignore those more violent emotions which besiege the hearts of men.
" But truly," says Mantuanus, meeting an elderly Stoic in the gardens outside Rome, " we have all been mad once-semel insanivimus omnes—even you." The unemotional man is no man : he is a flower 'able to realise its own beauty : a cynic unwilling t respond even to the scent of a rose. " The life of man is only a day," yet there is time -in the morning or after the mid-day meal-to lie beside the stream and paint one's own reflection.
" Four things are good for the life of man in this world," says Simonides : health, beauty, riches and friendship, and all these are united in a golden book. There was in the dawn of youth a book which we thought truly golden : a strange mixture of fantasy and realism-vulgar even, but always beautiful. It became my custom, during the summer months, to take this book as my companion for the long sunny afternoons. Then, perched on the rocks or lying relaxed on a small patch of green, I would gaze into the valley below.
" Weep not, gentle daughter, for Cupid will return, to bring you to our home."
Then Psyche, bowing near the waters, whispered her thanks to the Great Father of Life.
The thoughts of Youth are strange, and wild fancies will weave themselves in the imaginations of a young man. I have dreamed beautiful dreams. I remember many years ago meeting an old tramp at the roadside. Like some Indian guru he taught simply his philosophy of life : the experiences of youth are not repeated in later life. To dream dreams in the imagination and then to pretend that they are dreamed again in their original freshness is the secret of happiness. Life can be made beautiful if the mind will pretend that it is so. For the world is not a plaything : it is a heaven-sent stimulant to the imagination. " Let us pretend that there is a woman so perfect in her womanhood that man would never tire of her," says Shakespeare and paints his picture of Cleopatra. "Let us pretend that it is possible to establish an ideal state," says Plato and describes his Utopia. It is good to pretend and to dream during the morning, and, in the evening, to cast away the crumpled cloak of the day, with its reality and pretence, its fantasy and truth, and to resign oneself to sleep.
EVERY summer, at the beginning of July, the school tumbles headlong down a rabbit-hole, to emerge in the wonderland of examinations; for three weeks it closely resembles the Mad Hatter's tea party. The culprit is that awesome body, the Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examination Board, which submerges the school in a flood of exam. papers ranging from the obscure " Economics and Politics IV (English Economic History) A.S.", to the common or garden " English Language 1.0."
This being the second time that one has sat for these exams (though not, I hasten to add, in the same subjects) one tends to adopt a paternal attitude to the 4th Form, uninitiated in the rites of external examinations. The first definite sign of the proximity of the exam. is the arrival of the time-table (better late than never), together with a little red card on which one is requested to put one's name and number. On turning the card over it appears that last year it was used by one Julius Caesar, No. 59 ; he, however, forgot to prefix his number by the cipher 217/.
The next piece of information is the announcement of a list of days on which one is not to attend school ; not that this means anything because one invariably finds that all one's exams. occur on the days prescribed for non-attendance. The German exam is on the Saturday morning when Surrey are at Bramall Lane.
Then the crisis. The Lords rejected the bill to abolish the death penalty. This was only the second bill they had rejected since 1911 and it had to be just before the Constitution exam. Desperate revision began of relations between the two Houses and continued until we were assured by the eminent economist in Room 25 that the paper would already have been set and so there could not be a question on the rejection.
The whole school is in a state of chaos, growing, like Alice's dream, stranger all the time. A crowd of boys is to be seen outside the Gym. door, peering curiously in. The stairs by the Library are out of use and so the " private staircase " is thronged with small boys. One can sit comfortably in Assembly, and second sitting dinner rarely contains more than 60 boys, both courses being served and eaten in ten minutes. Everything is out of order and the Office staff can never find anyone when he is wanted.
The only thing that remains undisturbed by the Board's invasion is the school cat, who as he purrs his way round the school seems to say, as he did to Alice, " We are all mad here."
SATURDAY, June 30th saw a coachload of boys of assorted shapes and sizes, but mostly of the smaller variety, leave Sheffield bound for a-or rather the -ship at Liverpool. Outward bound, apart from the most unseamanlike reactions of one member to the motions of the vehicle, interest was held by the changing scenery and occasional halts.
Chester was briefly explored, the Manchester Ship Canal was sighted, and lastly we passed through that triumph of engineering skill, the Mersey Tunnel. In Liverpool, after a procession past innumerable quays, we at last reached our destination, the Gladstone Dock and S.S. Hector.
She fully justified our journey and our expectations. Not least of the attractions was the tea, which was, perhaps for strategical reasons, the first item on the agenda. The exploration of the ship, after the delights of the dining room had been fully exhausted and the painting of " Hector," complete with moustache, had been explained, was divided into two main sections : the engine room and the bridge. Throughout, efficiency and modernity were the keynotes. Among the equipment were teleprinters, a gyro-compass and, in case of emergency, the more familiar magnetic type, meteorological instruments, including a " screen ", slung on the starboard side of the ship, an exhaustive flag locker and an elaborate system of fire-detection. It consequently seemed logical and inevitable that radar equipment should also be possessed.
Below, in the engine room, the same impression of clean efficiency was created by the all-metal construction, although footholds were occasionally precarious owing to the inevitable film of oil. We were impressed by the huge propeller shaft, over 100 feet long ; the instructions in English and Chinese for the benefit of the orientals who form a large part of the crew ; and the high temperatures and humidity. At the time 85'F. was being recorded, but 120°F. is the rule when the vessel is under way.
Curious eyes peered into the lifeboat, hold. cabin and crews' quarters, which seemed strangely luxurious to imaginations reared on Nelson's Victory and Bligh's Bounty. Above all we realised that a ship is more than a metal box ferrying goods across the oceans. She is a complete community, the running of which is as complicated as any city. We all felt deeply grateful to Captain Cheetham for the opportunity to bind a little closer the links with " our " ship, and to the officers who willingly gave their time to conduct us on this most interesting tour of inspection.
The long summer term enabled us to hold five meetings before the examinations began. C. R. Jennings, in an illustrated talk on Switzerland, made a broad, admiring survey of this small and highly civilised country. G. Nuttall reviewed the life and evolution of the strongly individual style of the painter El Greco, whose works, after long obscurity, are now enjoying almost a popular vogue. We are indebted to Mr. Henry for a clear, thoughtful address on " Poetic Imagination " and the nature of imagery. Mr. Chalmers made an admirably concise review of the treatment of the " Phaedra theme " by Euripides, Seneca and Racine, tracing the shift of emphasis and moral viewpoint. For those of us with little Latin and no Greek, this was invaluable. In the first talk of what promises to be an interesting series entitled " Strange as it may seem," Mr. Bramhall traced the peculiar origins of the Spoelberch de Lovenjoul Library, a rich collection of personal documents and manuscripts of many nineteenth century French writers, particularly Balzac.
Our thanks are due to Mr. Sinclair, our vice-chairman, and to A. A. Greaves, our unobtrusively efficient secretary. E. V. B.
Senior : Only one meeting was held in the summer term, when Mr. Henry gave us a lively and fascinating account of the life and works of J. M. Synge. The lecture was well attended, and thus the year's activities ended on a pleasing note. Several interesting projects are planned for the autumn and we hope to join again with the I.D.G. for at least one meeting ; we also hope to increase our membership further, with boys from all forms in the Upper School. I would like to thank Higginbottom for his diligent assistance as secretary of the Society.
Middle School: This term saw the Society's three most successful meetings of the year. The opening event-the long-awaited Mock Trial-was excellently performed and enthusiastically witnessed by a large audience. The speeches, repartee, cross-questioning and Cartwright's wig were all most convincing, and we were all delighted with the whole show. The second meeting found us once more discussing in lively fashion a number of varied topics, upon which everyone present had something pertinent to say. And finally, another large audience attended the most interesting lecture on " The Literature of Escape," given by Mr. Summers, who not only added extensively to our book-lists but gave us some stimulating conclusions on which to reflect afterwards. Thus we have had a most successful year which has fully justified the revival of the Society ; it has now, we hope, been given a sound permanent foundation. Especial thanks are due to the committee in general, and to D. J. H. Sheasby, the energetic and most helpful secretary, in particular.
P. R. M., P. S. H.
Our term started with a show of really beautiful coloured 35 mm. slides by an Old Boy, C. M. Goddard, Officer in the Cunard Line. Most of the slides were taken on his travels abroad, those on Kodachrome seeming to give the truest colour rendering.
There has been much activity in taking photographs of teams, leavers, school plays, etc., and for the Open Day we made four 35 mm. film-strips which will serve as a permanent record of an exciting evening.
We say goodbye to D. J. Stocks, who has been the Society's secretary for two years. We owe him a tremendous lot : he wired all the equipment in the new darkroom ; he spent many hours in testing cameras sent on approval ; he has been the first user of the new home-made copying stand ; he has exposed, developed and enlarged dozens of negatives for the school ; the first two film-strips were made by him, the second two by younger boys under his guidance. He and his camera have been a familiar sight about the school. In addition he won the first prize in the photographic competition. We wish him well in the future.
At the beginning of May a group was formed for the playing of chamber music. Since a high proportion of those involved had attended the Sherborne Orchestral Course, it was decided to select Schubert's Octet for the first reading, this being traditionally performed at Sherborne. While this remained the piece de resistance, a gallant but short-lived onslaught was also made on the Beethoven Septet. A pleasing feature of these entirely voluntary lunch-hour rehearsals was the number of junior boys who attended. Musicianship steadily improved ; the violins soon developed amazing dexterity in wrapping themselves around the unshakable bass provided by Mr. Mace and Fairest and the confidence of Bomber's clarinet.
The last rehearsal saw a mild departure from classical music. The violin and wind departments were reinforced and three pieces popular during last term on Radio Luxembourg were read, one cannot say played. As always, however, ` a good time was had by all,' and we can look back on time well spent and to a type of playing which should become a regular feature of music in the school.
The group has met regularly once a fortnight for most of the term and we have enjoyed much stimulating reading and discussion of a large number of poems by modern writers. We are particularly grateful to Mr. Claypole, who, at our final meeting of the term, read a selection of the poems of Walter de la Mare and awakened in us a new interest in this poet's work.
I should like to thank Jennings for acting as group secretary, and to add that I hope that, from the Upper School, we shall be able to form a similar group next year.
Summer activities started on April 28th with a visit to Castleton and Chatsworth. At Castleton the Blue John Cavern and the Church were visited, and the party ascended the steep slopes to Peak Castle, appreciating the difficulties that faced anyone who lived in such a place, as well as those of possible attackers. At Chatsworth we saw, amongst other things, vases made of the Blue John stone, and were impressed by the magnificent house set in its formal gardens among the Derbyshire hills.
Our second visit took us to Lincoln, where an enjoyable day was spent in spite of the rain. At the Guildhall the Mayor's officer proudly showed us the very fine civic insignia. At the Castle we saw the medieval keep and battlements and more modern buildings including the 18th century gaol. We were also able to see the treasured copy of Magna Carta at the Cathedral and the very interesting collections at the City Museum.
The last visit of the term was to the Queen's Road Depot of the Sheffield Transport Department. This was made by way of introduction to a lecture on the history of Sheffield Transport which will be given at the first meeting of the Autumn Term. A number of our members are carrying out, during the summer holidays, various interesting pieces of research on local history.
The Society's thanks are due to the retiring officials, Worswick, the Secretary, and Needham, the Treasurer, who have served us well. We have 95 members at the close of the year and I hope that most of these will maintain their interest next year. We say goodbye with regret to Mr. Collins who has shown great interest in our activities.
Much against normal practice, the Chess Club carried its activities into the Summer Term. We had an invitation to play Hymers College, Hull. Owing to illness one boy was unable to play and Milner, twelfth man for the 2nd team, stepped into the breach. He did very well to win his game. Out of the six games played the School suffered only one defeat, and with one game drawn we won the match by four games to one.
The School year has been a very successful one for the team, which has won six of the nine matches played and lost none. In general the team has been B. S. Beevers, M. Roebuck, E. M. Spir (Captain), P. W. Cave, J. G. Crookes, R. Clarke. Allen, Bates, Milner and Schofield have also played.
v. Nether Edge (Home), drawn 2-2.
v. De La Salle (Away), won 4-1.
v. Firth Park (Home), drawn 3-3.
v. University (Away), won 4-2.
v. Dronfield (Home), won 6-0.
v. De La Salle (Home), won 4-2.
v. Nether Edge (Away), won 4-1.
v. Hymers College (Away), won 4-1.
LAST term, books borrowed totalled 1,750, the highest figure so far for a Summer term. Room 39 has been opened as a junior Reading Room for Forms 1-3 and a supply of periodicals is being made available from the main Library. The following are thanked for their gifts : D. Barron, G. P. J. Beynon, R. Biggs, G. H. Bradshaw, A. D. P. Briggs, A. G. Bruster, J. P. Catchpole, Capt. G. K. Cheetham, A. A. Greaves, J. D. Hemingway, R. G. Lawler, D. G. Milne, Mrs. M. Sackin, J. Sewell, I. W. Strachan, N. S. Waite, P. Wright, L. J. Youle.
The Long Walk. By Slavomir Rawicz.
This is the story of a young Polish officer imprisoned in Northern Siberia by the Russians in 1940 and of his incredible escape with seven others. The author tells how, after completing a forced march during the winter, he began life in the slave-labour camp. He and his comrades made their escape through Siberia and then across the Gobi Desert, only to be confronted by the Himalayas. With the help of mountain herdsmen they reached India and the British army there. The account is full of gripping detail and an outstanding testimony to human endurance.
The Planet Venus. By Patrick Moore.
Venus is our nearest neighbour. It is comparable in size, has a dense atmosphere, and is well warmed by the sun. Yet the Evening Star remains a mystery. A pearly cloud envelopes this planet, and only vague shadows can be glimpsed of what lies beneath. Against this science strives, her subtlest resources yielding but meagre fruit. Does jungle or desert lie below? Here observation and theory are traced in lucid and human terms, and the scientific method truly illustrated. The fact that this book contains all that is known is a blow to complacency, but an encouragement to the amateur astronomer. Perhaps the only final answer is to go there and see.
Animal Farm. By George Orwell.
Satirising the Communist revolution in Russia, this pleasant little book preceded Orwell's famous " 1984 " by four years, and displays none of the latter's vitriolic attack or starkness of presentation. The animals of a farm drive out the farmer and administer it for themselves ; the pigs, more intelligent than the rest, take over in time the leadership of the community. The story shows the increasing corruption of the pigs and the failure of their schemes-one of which is a cunning satire on the Five Year Plans. In originality and apparent simplicity the tale has something of the quality of " Gulliver's Travels " and, ridicule being the chief aim and method of satire, the book succeeds in a mild fashion. It is not likely to move any mountains, but makes entertaining reading.
As the Summer Camp at Guernsey this year was to be much more expensive than usual, it was derided that the Whit. Camp should be shortened to four days and that the Troop should not go far afield. The camp was held at Nitticarhill, near Barlborough, and was favoured by quite good weather. Unfortunately, the field was the home of a herd of cows, who wandered through the camp site three or four times a day on their way to and from their drinking place. As they always seemed to be thirsty at about 3 a.m. it was not an uncommon sight, at this hour, to see four sleepy scouts, in pyjamas, rounding up obstinate cattle. Reveille was consequently a little late on some mornings. Activities were rather restricted by the shortage of time, but several tests were passed. We congratulate J. Daglish and I Wiggett on gaining their First Class badges.
At the end of the term Mr. Shaw, our Scoutmaster, is leaving us. We all thank him very much for all that he has done for us and wish him every success in his new appointment. Our thanks for his good work as Q.M. go to J. Sewell, who will also be leaving us.
WE have had a busy but quiet term. Our numbers are 40 Scouts and 11 Seniors, making by far the largest of the three Troops. Troop meetings have been rather disorganised by other School functions, but steady training has continued.
Once again the Troop sent a representative, G. Birtwistle, to the St. George's Day parade. Whit Camp was held in glorious weather at Newstead Abbey. We also camped at the County Rally, where we had a thoroughly enjoyable week-end. Summer Camp was fixed some months ago for Kingswear, in Devon, but the site was cancelled at very short notice because of the water shortage there ! However, letters and a telephone call to the Isle of Arran have secured us a site there and we look forward to a successful camp.
The Seniors are sending a party to France this summer to hike in the Loire Valley. Next term we should have once again a large Senior Section and we hope that recruits will be forthcoming to fill the vacancies in the Troop. We say goodbye to C. J. Belk, who has been a most efficient and helpful Q.M., and to G. Birtwistle, our large and reliable T.L., and wish them all success in the future.
DURING the Summer term, we are proud to say, we have only used the Scout Hut three times, and have been out of doors every other Saturday. We began the term with " Chatanurga "- a game of living chess in the Rivelin and Wyming Brook area. In spite of the failure of one side to locate the opposing King and base, the atmosphere was as matey as could be desired. Later in the term a " Crock of Gold " was discovered hidden near Ringinglow, but only after it had taken most Scouts far too long to decide in which direction the west lay. Perhaps the most successful activity of the term was "The Long Walk" which began at Beauchief and finished up at the Toad's Mouth, the winning pair being Ian Taylor and John Topley, who successfully reached the end of the course and stood up to the various hazards and surprise tests on the way with commendable initiative. We shall not speak of the P.L's performance on this occasion ... Our ancestors in " C " Troop would turn in their graves, offices, professorial chairs, etc., if they were told of the Troop's performance in Stumps matches against the other School Troops ; we only regained our self-respect by decisively defeating Fulwood.
Whit camp was held in glorious weather at Harwood Dale, and a high standard of camping, and especially cooking, was reached. Many of this year's recruits have now gained Second Class, and we hope the others will not be far behind those who received their badges at Whit Camp. A visit from a Brigadier and a small group of National Servicemen brightened the end of the week, and gave us something more serious to think about too.
We look forward to Summer Camp on the shores of Loch Torridon, though we are sorry that one patrol is to be depleted by three Scouts who cannot come. The Tiger Patrol's week's trek promises to be an interesting experience.
Our Seniors, a small but unutterably select band, have hiked, helped as stewards at the Middlewood Garden Party and the Soap Box Derby, and cooked a meal with great success, using all the resources of a modern kitchen. We were grateful for their help on the staff at Whit Camp.
Finally we have regretfully said farewell to A.S.M. Michael Gagan, whose resourcefulness and imaginative organisation have done so much to brighten our programmes and relieve the harassed S.M. The fact that so many of our Scouts are willing to give time and energy to help in running the Troop when they reach their late teens is perhaps the fairest and most encouraging comment on the value and lasting effect of Scout training in all its aspects. Our latest A.S.M. has been the most recent proof of this, and has been by no means unworthy of this line of willing helpers, whose history reaches back-as the Troop Log shows—to the inception of the Troop twelve years ago.
FOR several years two of our troops have enjoyed the use of Scout Dens underneath the Rover Den for Saturday meetings and Patrol meetings, but in February this year they were evicted to make room for building extensions. The dens have undoubtedly been of great value to troop training and their loss is keenly felt.
If any ex-scout, parent or friend, who reads this, knows of suitable buildings not too far from the School, which might be loaned or rented to us for dens, the Group Scoutmaster would be very grateful to hear of them at the School.
THIS year we had hoped for more success in the Northern Schools Sports at Manchester. G. P. Avison only managed to putt the shot 37 feet, although he holds the School record at 44 feet. He obtained a point, however, for gaining a standard in the Discus event. Shillito, the other favourite for a place, was feeling off form and could only finish 7th in the Mile final, although he gained 1 point for beating the standard time.
In the Yorkshire Schools Sports we had a large entry representing Sheffield. Our boys won many heats but lacked the power to finish in the final events. Davidson, however, won the junior Shot and we congratulate him on gaining a Yorkshire Championship. Shillito, who had had a few weeks off training, ran much better to finish 3rd in the Senior Mile. Grist shows promise in the junior 440 Yards and Darwin in the Intermediate 880 Yards.
A VERY large number of entries was received, as usual ; unhappily it was again the case that many entrants for those events which are held on the School Close after afternoon school did not trouble themselves to attend. We would much prefer not to receive such entries.
The weather during the preliminary rounds was reasonably fair and the early stages were carried through quickly and efficiently. The Sports Day itself was fine (a welcome contrast with 1955) and the programme was completed without any hitches. The high-jumping and hurdling were of fairly modest standard only (despite a 2nd-year record jump), though some boys show promise of better things, if they would only take the thing seriously and put in some time on it. Rowbotham's performances in the junior category were outstanding and he broke four records. Goddard, in the Senior under-16 group, set up two records : a very dark horse, this.
In future we would like to see more members of the School among the spectators. The Sports are organised for the School and it is only fair and reasonable to expect good support of these school functions by boys of all forms.
We are very grateful to the Mistress Cutler (Mrs. R. P. Phillips) for presenting the cups, medals and trophies, and our thanks are due to all to those masters and boys who helped in the running of the Sports, both in the early rounds and on the final day.

ACTIVITY early in the term was centred around the individual championships. There was an encouraging increase in the number of competitors but they failed, as usual, to play their games within a reasonable time. The Senior Singles Cup was won by C. J. W. Powell, but in the Doubles Championship he and Nicholls were surprisingly defeated by Horsefield and Lee. The junior competitions were foregone conclusions ; Lord captured the Singles Cup with his customary ease, and he and Findlay found no opponents to extend them in the Doubles contest.
Only one school match was played, against the Old Edwardians. The standard of play was high, considering the heat of the evening. The School failed by only a few points and the match was lost by 5 games to 7. Nicholls, in his last appearance for the School, played extremely well. Powell, in partnership with Lord, was the essence of reliability. Lord, although lacking stamina, played a cheerful and thoughtful game and proved a useful deputy for Horsefield.
Success in the first year of inter-school fixtures is bound to be limited. Such stalwarts as E. C. Wragg and Nicholls did much to foster enthusiasm for the game and they will be missed. The development of young players such as Lord, Findlay, Manterfield and E. W. Powell, augurs well for the future.
R. A. Avis is to be commended for his efficient captaincy. There has been a considerable advance in his own play, though in spite of this he again failed to win the Senior Singles, after reaching the final for the second year running.
Senior Doubles : Horsefield and Lee beat Nicholls and Powell, 15-6, 13-15, 15-12.
Junior Singles : Lord beat Manterfield, 15-4, 15-4.
Junior Doubles : Findlay and Lord beat Manterfield and Powell, 15-12, 15-12.
TENNIS is becoming more popular than ever and the number of boys wishing to play is so great in the Upper School that play by the 5th Forms has had to be drastically restricted. It is heartening to see the growing number of keen aspirants for inclusion in the teams, and standards will inevitably be raised. The tournaments attracted a large entry; I. W. Roxburgh and B. J. Horsefield won the Senior Doubles ; L. J. Youle the Senior Singles ; S. Walker and P. A. Manterfield the Junior Doubles ; I. W. Newsom the Junior Singles.
The school teams have had quite a successful season, despite the lack of courts of our own, which would provide obvious advantages for practice and home matches. Although numerous changes had to be made in the teams, the players adapted themselves and played very well their new partners. In the 1st VI, Roxburgh and Ferguson played particularly well, with stylish accurate ground-strokes ; Andrews and Twigg, a stubborn third couple, have had inspired spells, often clinching the match. Three 1st VI matches were unfortunately cancelled owing to rain. Nine matches were played ; 5 won, I drawn, 3 lost. Two 2nd VI matches were won. Colours were awarded to M. K. Murray and J. K. Ferguson.
M. K. Murray has proved a most competent Captain. He had a difficult task, for practically all of last year's team had left. The results are a sufficient testimony to his patient building of a 1st VI, achieved quite unobtrusively. We shall miss him. Our warmest thanks are also due to A. J. Pinion for his second year's services as a most energetic secretary.
Finally the teams wish to thank Mr. Bramhall, Mr. Gibbs, Mr. Sinclair and Mr. Shaw for their unfailing help and encouragement.

THE season, sadly affected by inclement weather, has been one of transition with a young and relatively inexperienced side gradually accustoming itself to the more intensive cricket at this level and ending the season with a record which bears fair comparison with that of last season, when the team, at least on paper, was much stronger. The main credit must go to Beynon, whose captaincy has been most resolute and commanding. He has utilised his varied bowling resources very well and set a high personal standard in fielding, which has probably been the consistently strongest feature of the season. Unfortunately his own batting has not lived up to its high promise of last season ; this may, in part, have been due to the responsibilities of captaincy, but it is also the result of a rather impetuous tendency to try to score rapidly from the moment of arrival at the crease without first settling in and testing the strength of the bowling.
Beynon's relative failure with the bat has thrust responsibility on the shoulders of Bradshaw and Ratcliffe ; each has responded well, though in different ways. Bradshaw's technique is still ungainly and there is too much right hand in his shots, so that he has difficulty in driving on the off-side ; this restricts his range of scoring strokes, but his defence is sound and his phlegmatic temperament has often served us well in moments of crisis. Ratcliffe has not been so consistent, but he is undoubtedly the best technically equipped batsman in the side ; his series of excellent innings at the end of the season should give him encouragement for next year when he is to captain the XI. The younger batsmen fall into two categories—those like Newsom and Pike, who have good technique and have played some useful defensive innings but lack the power to establish a definite supremacy over the bowling ; and those like Evison and, to a lesser extent, Ollerenshaw, who can be most punishing on their day but lack the patience and style to deal with a really hostile attack. Yet all these have played their part and with more experience next year the batting should be strong.
possible three years ago, we shall miss his cheerful persistence and excellent fielding next year. Hawley, introduced into the side midway through the season, has bowled very steadily and accurately and if he acquires extra strength and stamina should become a most useful member of the team, for he is a safe fielder and his batting is not to be despised. Searle opened the bowling in the early games and returned some good analyses with subtle variations of pace and flight, but he has not bowled fast enough in his initial spell to make the best use of his natural in-swing. Bailey returned after injury for the final games but, though faster and more hostile than Searle, he is still not sufficiently consistent ; these two could still be rivals for a regular place in the team next season.
It remains to comment on the competent wicket-keeping of Powell and, as his deputy at the end of the season, Challenger ; and to thank Walker and Brown for their useful contributions in bowling and batting when they have been called upon. Since only three members will not be available next year, there should be an encouraging improvement in results, but it must be remembered that these will only be gained by careful practice and sustained application of basic principles in matches. This year's side has been keen and it has been most pleasing to note their improvement during the season ; greater maturity and character in their play should follow. 195'7 will certainly be a most interesting season.

IN a somewhat disappointing season, more games have actually been lost to the weather than to any other form of opposition. Five fixtures were cancelled. Whether or not the team would have given a better account of itself under more favourable conditions, it is certain that the high hopes entertained at the beginning of the season, both of batting and bowling, were not realised. Perhaps the principal reason was that, while some five or six of the team deservedly earned their places, the complement had to be made up of players who promised little and achieved less.
The batting depended almost entirely upon the sound opening partnership of Loversidge (125 runs in 8 innings) and Brown (109 in 7 innings, one n.o.) who together scored more than half the total runs. There was a lack of solidity in the middle of the order, for Longden had little success, and Bridge and Baxter, though occasionally making valuable runs in a refreshingly aggressive way, could not consistently be relied upon, principally because they have not learned the importance of footwork in playing with a straight bat along the line of the ball. In the Nottingham match, where the side was dismissed for 59 runs (in 125 minutes), Bates, holding one end closed for an hour and a half, showed himself an extremely sound defensive player ; but purely defensive batting, though invaluable in a crisis, rarely wins matches. The batting generally was without character and the opposing bowlers were too often allowed to dictate the course of a game with bowling so indifferent that the batsmen could have wrested the initiative by adopting more forceful methods. The winning of matches is largely a matter of developing the right mental approach to the game ; attack and aggression are not the prerogative of the fielding side.
The main burden of the bowling was again borne by Walton (15 for 184), splendidly supported early in the season by Hawley (15 for 69), who consequently graduated to the 1st XI, and thereafter by Walker (10 for 104), Bailey (10 for 40 in two games) and Searle (2 for 22). Walker, by enthusiasm and determined practice, developed into a really menacing bowler as the season progressed ; his 6 wickets for 6 runs in 11 overs was the decisive factor in the team's most convincing victory at Doncaster. The loss of Wragg after only two games left the team without a genuinely slow bowler ; Meredith (3 for 43) bowled off-spin in the later matches, but his length and direction were altogether too uncertain. Other bowlers were Shipton (3 for 28) and Baxter (0 for 61).
The out-cricket deserves nothing but praise. The whole side responded splendidly to the fine captaincy of Longden, who based his field settings upon relentless attack and himself intimidated the opposing batsmen by fielding with great verve in the " silly " positions. Some of the younger members, notably Bridge and Greaves, were frequently outstanding, and Walker specialised in the taking of spectacular slip catches. Challenger was alert, if occasionally unorthodox, behind the stumps ; though he lacked opportunity for practice in standing up to the wicket, his taking of the quicker bowling was generally neat and efficient.
It was good to see the lively and happy spirit of the team, for which much of the credit must go to Longden for showing that every minute of the game can be enjoyed, not least those long periods in the field which too many so-called cricketers seem to look upon as drudgery. It was a great pity that some members of the side were such regular absentees from team-practices, the value of which cannot be over-estimated. Thanks are due to the various people who cheerfully undertook the dual role of twelfth-man and scorer, and to members of the Staff who helped with umpiring and net-practice.
Regular members of the team were : Longden, Loversidge, Brown, Avis, Baxter, Brudge, Walton, Walker, Hawley, Meredith, Challenger. Bailey and Searle (1st XI), Wragg, Bates, Shipton, G. H. Bradshaw, M. J. Smith, Greaves, Buchan, Kent, played occasionally.

THE team has had a satisfactory season, but the promise shown at the beginning of the term was not maintained. This may have been partly due to the weather which reduced the number of practice sessions and broke the continuity of fixtures.
The strength of the team has been its batting. Lord (112, av. 37.3) and Sheasby (9o, av. 12.9) proved to be the most prolific batsmen, although individual performances take second place to a soundness in batting throughout the team. Even the regular "tail-enders " showed a technique that, at times, set problems as to future batting orders. Amongst the " acknowledged " batsmen Wagstaff and Powell in particular had a style that was never reflected adequately in their scores. Board, Findlay and Beckett showed promise, but all three must learn to mix defence with more aggressive strokes.
The bowling was sound, but lacked guile. The faster bowlers, with the exception of Lord, often lost strength and direction by bowling too fast. They should realise that thought is as important as the physical effort required. Board (55 overs, 10 for 70), Lord (39 overs, 12 for 76), and Powell (35 overs, 15 for 78) were the most successful bowlers, the latter obtaining most of his wickets by just keeping a good length (an example that might have been profitably followed by others). Gilbert and Manterfield met with varying success, but they were often erratic. Andrew bowled well in the first game, but was seldom called upon for the rest of the season.
The fielding was of a high standard; twenty-four catches were held. The placing improved as the capabilities and weaknesses of each bowler became more evident. Findlay kept wicket very well, although he is prone to appeal too loudly and with unwarranted assurance much too frequently.
The captaincy was shared between Sheasby and Walker. Both acquitted themselves well, handling the bowling sensibly and setting a good example in the field. Worswick kindly acted as scorer for the whole of the season ; he carried out his duties efficiently, and even carried his bat for 5 not out when one member of the team failed to arrive.

THE weather played havoc with the fixture list ; four matches had to be cancelled. The season, however, has been fairly successful ; only two matches were lost and these by narrow margins.
In the opening game against Barnsley, the team were uncertain in the field, but by the Rotherham match a considerable improvement had been achieved in certain positions. Real excellence became apparent in the close fielding of Dixon, Needham, Ellis and Pike ; Ellis, fielding at old-fashioned suicidal point, took five difficult catches against Mt. St. Mary's, and gained further " distinction " at Oakwood by heading a catch into the safe hands of Pike at slip. The outfielding was never impressive and frequently deplorable ; a lack of anticipation and of general alertness was most marked. In the last match Pike, owing to a painful hand, was forced to field at cover and square leg but acquitted himself with agile ground fielding and accurate returns to bring about two run-out dismissals. This was a display of outfielding the high standard of which had not been seen before.
The batting depended almost entirely on Ellis, Bradshaw and Pike, who between them scored two-thirds of the total runs. The outstanding performance was an unbroken century opening by Bradshaw and Ellis against Mt. St. Mary's. Ellis and Pike made 68 runs for the second wicket versus Hymers College. Bradshaw showed admirable consistency, particularly early in the season, determination and care in stroke-play. Ellis was the most prolific scorer ; strength on the off-side and a sound judgment, which enabled him to adjust his technique to suit every situation, brought him over 200 runs. Great promise was seen in Pike, who outshone his older colleagues ; his every innings was a lesson in studied concentration. Bows and Needham made useful contributions at Nottingham; Laughton and Cottingham, by application of commonsense if not of batsmanship, scored 29 runs in a valuable last wicket stand against Hymers College.
Of the bowlers only Cottingham and Perry attempted to discern and take advantage of the faults of their opponents. Their constant variations of length, speed and direction was always likely to bring about a collapse and frequently did so. Elliott will be remembered for two astonishing spells, but he has never been so successful at other times. In support Needham, Guite and Sharpe bowled at a medium pace. Laughton was the only really slow bowler but he was sadly neglected except in the first and last games when he bowled with much skill.
The initial choice of wicket-keeper presented difficulty, but Bradshaw justified his selection, improving with every game. His taking of the ball wide of the stumps was very safe and he completed a good season with a most able performance at Nottingham. Dixon as Captain set a fine example in the field, although as a batsman he showed signs of unaccountable nervousness. His leadership was admirable when the side was in command of a situation but somewhat hesitant in times of stress. Quarrell proved an efficient and voluble scorer. It was a most enjoyable season for all concerned.

BAD weather, and inefficient secretaryship on the part of some of our opponents, meant that only two matches were played by this new school team. In both games, we proved to have the edge, particularly in bowling, and the side comported itself soundly, although the fielding should have been tighter, and the running between wickets truer. Wileman and Newton showed promise as batsmen, and Aldridge and Nell bowled very well. Tranmer led the team effectively and bowled with intelligence. The experience gained by all who played and who attended the net practices should prove valuable for the future.

The season has been a spasmodic one-short bursts of Athletic heats, Cricket Knock-out, Cricket League, and finally examinations. As a whole it seems to have been unexciting and lacked much of the sparkle of last year's games. This must have been due to poor weather, cold afternoons, dull skies, and in no way to the activities pursued, for once again close finishes have been seen, and only one drawn game resulted.
The House Knock-out went as was expected to Haddon. They indeed have dominated the sporting world this year. Only once during the Final was there any suggestion that drama was developing, for their score stood at 25 for 5, before two of their members, emulating Australian tactics, hammered their way out of a critical situation. A mammoth total of 167 proved too much for Wentworth who were beaten by nearly 6o runs.
The House League went, very unexpectedly, to Lynwood. Arundel, easy champions of one section, stood clear favourites to beat Lynwood, who had to play Haddon twice before the final, but on the all-important day Arundel could only score 58 runs. And so Cricket gave way to Examinations, and only small groups of cricketers tried to notch their names in the score books at Whiteley Woods.
All this time Tennis had been played by 6o of our members every afternoon. Even odd members of Staff were later in the term to be seen giving examples of delightful stroke play and it is to be hoped that good notice was taken of how, and how not, to play.
To complete the term, the 1st XI again attacked the Staff at Cricket and proved successful. A splendid game, with scores of 147 v. 147 for 3 gave School a well deserved victory, whilst the Staff sink into retirement for yet another year.

The term has been mainly occupied by the seven rounds of the League Championship. There has been very keen competition with no house outstanding and the destination of the trophy was only decided on the results of the last round. The standard of performance has been quite good in all matches. Some fifty boys have elected to play tennis and very satisfactory reports of their progress have been received.

We have not had the best of luck with the weather this term; as the tables show, the League competition had to end with one match unplayed. But Chatsworth and Wentworth have provided the outstanding teams and they had a most exciting match, Chatsworth winning by two runs.
In general, the standard of cricket is quite satisfactory; batting and fielding being good and, in a few cases, very good indeed. The standard of bowling is below average; too many young bowlers take far too long a run and hurl the ball wildly, instead of concentrating on the more useful control of length and direction. They should realise that, to get the greatest fun out of bowling, the main thing is to be able to hit the stumps and not merely to see how far one can make the bails fly.

swimming and this deserves to be maintained. There is at present good Under 14 material but a want of training in the Middle School makes the Under 16 team patchy in performance.
There was a gratifyingly large entry for the Sheffield Schools Championships this year and the School had many finalists, winning for the first time the Bolton Cup for a Junior Breast Stroke team of record time. Five boys represented Sheffield in the Yorkshire Schools Gala at Hull. Good wishes for the future are extended to N. R. Brookes who has proved a loyal and enthusiastic Captain and whose Breast Stroke distinction will long be remembered.

The audience was surprisingly and disappointingly small. The resulting want of House keenness was reflected in the generally slow times, although the standard of swimming maintained its usual high level. It is unsatisfactory that when so much time and energy are put into the programme school support should be so scanty. It is now likely that next year the School will revert to a single Senior and Junior Gala. Our thanks are meanwhile due to the Chairman of the Governors, Alderman A. Ballard, C.B.E., for distributing the trophies and cups, and to the O.E's. and Sheffield University for a Water Polo team.

This year has been one of increasing and unforeseen success. For the first time for many years we have in no branch of school activities finished bottom, or dangerously near it, and several remarkable achievements have been recorded at the other end of the scale-notably our dual success in Athletics (where we won both the Standard and Athletic Sports), in Swimming (when the Seniors were placed 3rd and Juniors 1st in the Sports and the Seniors a close 3rd in the Water Polo league), and in Rugby (when the 7-a-side cup was won without conceding a point). There has been a general concerted effort from the whole House, yet we have pleasure in noting several outstanding individual achievements-particularly those of Morgan and Cox in Swimming, and of Rowbotham and Broad in Athletics.
The Cricket season has been. successful, with the Juniors and Middle School maintaining a steady average performance, and the Seniors excelling themselves in taking Lynwood to a play-off for the League. This was unfortunately lost.
We are saying goodbye to many of our seniors, some of whom have a long history of service to the House. From these we single out Pinion, and thank him for his untiring leadership and drive which have extracted something from the most phlegmatic of the House members. We are not downcast by the exodus of such stalwarts, for we look to our juniors, who have shown such remarkable ability, to carry on their tradition.
The outstanding success of the term was achieved by the Juniors. Dench and his team, hitting back at the criticism levelled at them in the last report, must be congratulated or, winning the Junior Cricket League with maximum points. At one time, the Middle School team also looked to be heading for victory, but they finished the season badly, and were finally placed 2nd, a point behind the winners. The Seniors could only finish third in their section, but with the addition of Newsom, Ollerenshaw, and Hawley from the School 1st XI, beat Clumber in the first round of the Knock-out before going down after a keenly contested match to Wentworth.
The final positions in the Standard Sports saw the House placed 3rd with an average of 2.97 per boy, and in the Athletic Sports we finished 7th with 157 points.
The Senior Swimming Sports proved as nearly pointless for the House as did the Junior Sports.
Tennis, however, concluded the term's activities on a brighter note. Although there is as yet no House competition, Chatsworth members have acquitted themselves well both in the School teams and in the tournaments. Murray was the School Tennis captain : he and Ferguson have been awarded their full colours for the season. In the School tournaments we must congratulate Newsom on completing his hat-trick of victories in the junior Singles, and also Manterfield on winning the Junior Doubles with Walker of Wentworth.
Finally we bid farewell to our Captain, Ferguson, and all other members who are leaving, thank them for their services and offer them our best wishes for the future. Meanwhile we hope for more successes next year with Saunders as House Captain, whom we congratulate on his appointment.
The end of the School year sees Clumber once more with a larger share of honours than the law of averages would warrant. It has proved necessary to commandeer a portion of the cupboard of another House (which shall remain nameless) to accommodate our trophies.
During the Summer Term we signally failed to win many Cricket matches, but the Swimming Sports, and to a lesser extent the Athletic Sports, fully redeemed these lapses. In the swimming baths we achieved a customary victory, thanks to the efforts of many in the Middle and Upper school, but in particular to Green, the Senior Champion Swimmer, and Brookes.
In the Standard Sports the performances of the younger members of the House were particularly disappointing. However, the Athletic Sports brought more encouraging results, especially the sprinting of Goddard, who set up a new record in the Under 16 100 Yards and beating any time previously recorded in the open event. The Senior Relay team retained the trophy won last year.
The congratulations of the House go to J. D. Hemingway on his award at Durham University, and our good wishes are extended to J. G. Ratcliffe on being appointed House Captain for next year. In saying goodbye to many faithful members, we wish to record our sincere thanks to P. Jackson for his leadership throughout the year, and to the captains of the various teams for their sustained interest and untiring efforts.
Finally, an exhortation to the junior and Middle sections for a determined effort by every member next year, without which we cannot expect to retain our present position.
The House finished the year on a successful note by winning the Cricket Knock-out by 63 runs. Good batting by C. J. W. Powell enabled us to reach a total of 168, and, despite a fine innings by their captain, Wentworth could only score 105 in reply. Evison bowled consistently well throughout the competition.
The Middle School cricket team lapsed rather, despite the vigorous examples set by Crowson and E. W. Powell. On the whole the Junior elevens were satisfactory ; Pike and Powell in particular show promise.
In the Senior Swimming Sports we were placed second. Hollingworth did well and our younger performers were satisfactory. In the Athletic Sports our position was creditable and Nicholls won distinction by an excellent performance, to become Champion Athlete. We congratulate Pike, Evison, and Brown on their award of School Half-colours for Cricket.
All in all this has been an excellent year for the House. Much individual talent has combined with good House spirit to make Haddon a formidable combination at any sport.
The Summer Term has been attended by moderate success. The standard of Cricket has not been high, but fair performances were shown in the Swimming and Athletic Sports. In the latter, nine firsts were gained and the House was placed second. This represents a good all round effort ; Gilbert must be especially congratulated on becoming Junior Champion Athlete with 65 points.
In the Swimming Sports the Juniors won the Relay cup, Davison broke the Two Lengths Back Stroke record and Findlay won his Two Lengths Free Style race by a comfortable margin. Although the House was only placed fifth, the number of junior boys who are swimming well is encouraging for the future.
At Cricket the House possesses no outstanding talent. The Juniors put up some weak perform-ances, while the Middle School team were placed fifth in the league. The Seniors, who left the Knock-out in the first round, retrieved their honour in a surprise victory over Arundel which left them at the head of the league. Lee and Findlay must be congratulated on gaining half shares in the Senior and Junior Doubles Fives cups, while Avis was beaten in the final of the Senior Singles for the second year running.
Finally the present members of the House extend their best wishes to all who are leaving and thank them for their services and loyalty.
Although the term was not altogether a successful one, there is no doubt that the results obtained are an improvement. In the Swimming Sports, after the Juniors had begun gallantly, the Seniors only just managed to keep our heads above the water ; had it not been for Wood winning the Open Plunge, we might have suffered last year's fate.
The Cricket teams climbed a little higher ; the Seniors, after losing to Welbeck in the Knock-out and to Arundel in the first league fixture, did not lose another game all the season, in fact in one match, although but a " friendly," the handsome total of 147 was scored. Both junior teams and the Middle School team finished in the middle of their respective leagues. Among the House members Laughton played for the Under 14 XI, Wileman for the Under 13, and Searle bowled regularly for the 1st XI.
Finally we must say thank you and farewell to all who are leaving, especially Mr. Collins, whose ever-willing support for House activities will certainly be missed ; we wish him every success in the future.
The term has been one of moderate achievement ; on occasions there have been signs of brilliance both in individual displays and in the displays of teams, but of solid success there has been little indication.
In the Swimming Sports we had no success except for one or two individual flashes, but the Water Polo team managed, for the first time in many years, to reach the semi-final of the Knock-out. Daglish has been a tireless captain and it seems that he will shortly have a very good team.
In the Cricket Knock-out no one was more surprised than the captain to find that he had a more than useful side. Our opponents in the semi-final were Haddon, who were famed to be invincible ; which unfortunately proved to be the case. The opposition, aided by negligent fielding on the Welbeck side, amassed 13o runs, leaving Welbeck, with limited batting resources, to score the runs in an hour and a half. Welbeck quickly lost 4 wickets and our eminent captain was sorely worried. However, for the first time in the season, some say for the first time in his life, he managed to take the bowling by the scruff of the neck and rattled up 57 in short time-the score soon reached 1 1 1 with 7 wickets down and the said batsman was now really hitting the ball with the correct side (or edge) of the bat, but he ran himself out and the remaining wickets quickly fell owing to an inspired spell of bowling by Evison. One thing was quite obvious from this game ; in Andrew and Lord we have two very capable batsmen who will be a force to reckon with next year.
In the Cross Country final the Middle School team won by a very convincing margin ; the Juniors finished second, but unfortunately the Seniors gave a very poor performance. Of the Athletic Sports no mention will be made, for all members of the House were very disappointed.
Finally, we thank all leavers for their services to the House and hope that they will be successful in their new walks of life.
This year has been one of sound achievement rather than brilliant performance ; though our stock looks smaller as assessed by the fullness of our show-case, our higher all-round standing gives cause for satisfaction.
In the Cricket Knock-out our team, for the third year in succession, battled its way to the final. Walton and J. D. Walker, bowling with superb hostility and accuracy, shattered all forecasts by wrecking five Haddon wickets before a splendid stand lifted their score to the respectable. Then it was the Captain's turn to shine ; slowly the score mounted, and deservedly Bradshaw hit up a grand half-century. The team deserves congratulations on such a fine performance, losing eventually by 6o runs. The Senior League team has unaccountably failed to do well this season, and has plumbed the depths with amazing swiftness. The Middle School team finished 6th in the league, but it must be pointed out that one tie, and a game lost by one run, could have brought them very near to the top. The junior teams maintain their youth and virility and saw the 1st XI trophy slip from their grasp by 2 runs. The 2nd XI played soundly and finished 3rd ; a fine cricket season indeed !
The Swimming Sports brought Wentworth to fourth place, thanks mainly to the sterling efforts of Horsefield, Platts and S. Walker. Athletic Sports were rather unsuccessful ; the highest position we could attain was sixth-in spite of a gallant 100 Yards sprint by a somewhat corpulent gentleman of the Upper School. Harrison won the Under 16 Weight, and Dixon the Middle School High Jump.
Among our leavers to whom we must now say farewell, our thanks go to Bradshaw for his splendid work as House Captain, Spalding for his painstaking notes as Secretary, and Timperley for his stoic runs as Cross Country and Athletics Captain. To Peat, Beardshall, Houghton, Saxton, Wood, Greaves, Fitzakerley and Jones, go our regrets at their leaving and best wishes for the future. Each boy has played his part well both for House and School. Finally, to Mr. Shaw our best wishes for his happiness in his new post. 'The Juniors will miss his eager interest on their games afternoons.

Masters of Sciences
Do you have an interest in the world economy and in how economics can help us understand the world around us? Well trained economists are highly sought after in the labour market and are employed by consultancy firms, the government economic service, financial institutions, and other international organisations and businesses (even the tech giants). Do you want to combine an advanced understanding of core economics and the latest developments in economics with the opportunity to specialise in economic theory, applied economics, or economic history?
Economics is about how people make choices in conditions of resource scarcity and the results of these choices for society. It's about understanding the world around us and our place in it.
If you are interested in advanced study in economics that is 'post-crisis' in both structure and content, delivered at one of the UK's leading universities, then this degree is for you. The core modules develop your understanding of key economic concepts, ideas, tools and techniques, including the latest developments in micro, macro, applied econometric's, behavioural economics, the economics of labour markets and social policy and economic history. You can then specialise further in economic theory, applied economics (policy and institutions), or economic history. You will spend the summer combining your knowledge and skills to write a dissertation on a topic of your choice under personal supervision of a member of the Queen's faculty. On successful completion of this Masters you will have a deep understanding of the world economy past and present and the advanced analytical and quantitative skills that are so highly sought after by employers.
Evidence of an IELTS* score of 6.5, with not less than 5.5 in any component, or an equivalent qualification acceptable to the University is required.
The application procedure varies for undergraduate and postgraduate students, so we publish separate information for each. You'll also need to be able to provide evidence of a specified level of ability in the English language.
Entry to graduate diploma or taught masters programmes at Queen's University Belfast usually requires either a UK upper second-class (2:1) or a lower second-class (2:2) undergraduate degree. For most courses, your major subject or content of your Bachelor degree may also be considered. Please check our for exact entry requirements.
The comparable Indian qualifications are as follows:
UK Upper Second-Class Honours (2:1)
Successful completion of Bachelor degree with:
First Division Pass and a minimum final average of 60% (in the traditional system), or
CGPA 7.5 out of 10 on the 10 point scale; or 7.0 out of 10 if this equates to 'Good' in the institutional grading system, or
4.0 out of 6.0/B/Good in the 6-point system
UK Lower Second-Class Honours (2:2)
Second Division Pass and a minimum final average of 55% (in the traditional system), or
CGPA 7.0 out of 10 on the 10 point scale; or 6.0 - 6.5 out of 10 if this equates to 'Above Average' in the institutional grading system, or
3.5 out of 6.0/C+/Average+ in the 6-point system
Please note that other important factors considered in the assessment of applications are performance in relevant modules at undergraduate level, and the number of attempts taken to achieve the final grade.Where a CGPA system is used, the scoring system used by each institution will be taken into account and applications considered on an individual basis.
For admission to most postgraduate degree programmes, the University will normally accept 70% in English Language in Standard XII in lieu of an IELTS Academic test, if awarded by one of the following Indian examination boards:
Applicants will normally need to demonstrate a level of English equivalent to 6.5 IELTS or 90 TOEFL IBT (Internet based test). However, some degree programmes have higher or lower requirements (please check individual courses for programme requirements).
English Fluency Exams Accepted by university:
City & Guilds International ESOL (IESOL) Diploma
IGCSE in English (as a first language)
DuoLingo English Test
Trinity ISE III
Trinity ISE IV
International Baccalaureate Diploma English A Syllabus

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Psychiatry
Praharaj, Samir Kumar (2011) Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Psychiatry. Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology , 14 (4). pp. 245-251.
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Psychiatry_AIAN_2011.pdf - Published Version
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive and relatively painless tool that has been used to study various cognitive functions as well as to understand the brain-behavior relationship in normal individuals as well as in those with various neuropsychiatric disorders. It has also been used as a therapeutic tool in various neuropsychiatric disorders because of its ability to specifically modulate distinct brain areas. Studies have shown that repeated stimulation at low frequency produces long-lasting inhibition, which is called as long-term depression, whereas repeated high-frequency stimulation can produce excitation through long-term potentiation. This paper reviews the current status of rTMS as an investigative and therapeutic modality in various neuropsychiatric disorders. It has been used to study the cortical and subcortical functions, neural plasticity and brain mapping in normal individuals and in various neuropsychiatric disorders. rTMS has been most promising in the treatment of depression, with an overall milder adverse effect profile compared with electroconvulsive therapy. In other neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, mania, epilepsy and substance abuse, it has been found to be useful, although further studies are required to establish therapeutic efficacy. It appears to be ineffective in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder. There is a paucity of studies of efficacy and safety of rTMS in pediatric and geriatric population. Although it appears safe, further research is required to optimize its efficacy and reduce the side-effects. Magnetic seizure therapy, which involves producing seizures akin to electroconvulsive therapy, appears to be of comparable efficacy in the treatment of depression with less cognitive adverse effects.

Tom Carnegie, 1919-2011
Like everyone else, I was very stunned by the news of the passing of Tom Carnegie today at the age of 91. It's a sad day for the Indy 500, as yet another one of the Speedway's greats has left us.
Though I never met Tom, like everyone else I always felt like he was my friend. His way of announcing what was happening on the track had that style. It was like he was talking to each of us individually, not as part of a mass that on race day numbered into the hundreds of thousands.
http://www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com/
Tom had once dreamed of becoming an actor, and it was with that sort of flair that he called the action. Helio Castroneves referred to Tom on his Twitter account today as a "narrator". I think that is a perfect word to describe Tom's role, as he was the soundtrack to 61 years of racing history.
When I went to the Speedway for the first time in 1979, there were no video boards or electronics anywhere around the track other than the scoring pylon. And like today you couldn't see the cars go all away around.
So it was up to Tom to provide the information and the color to what was going on, and that was what made him special. His use of words to draw a picture of what was happening was a pure joy to listen to. His booming voice and his dramatic timing was always a perfect compliment to what was going on in front of him, and took some of the greatest moments racing has ever seen to an even higher level. What made it even better was that he had a love for the 500 and what he was doing, and that came through loud and clear through the public address system.
I bet I spent at least 50 days at the Speedway during Tom's time there and the man never seemed to have an off day. Even as he got up in age he seemed to draw an energy from the place and time and again deliver a wonderful performance. I don't say "performance" in an ESPN, drop catchphrases and draw attention to yourself sort of way, because it was never like that. Despite his booming voice and recognizable phrases, Tom never tried to be bigger than whatever it was that he was calling. It's probably because we shared in his enthusiasm and passion, so his calls just made those memorable moments better. I'm sure that's the way he wanted it, because I don't think the man had a single drop of ego.
Though he never drove a lap in actual competition, Tom is a Speedway icon. His called his first race in 1946, so he was part of the rebirth of the 500 as a worldwide event, and his work continued until he retired after the 2006 race, going out having called the finish of the only last-lap pass for the win in the race's history. His voice is a part of the tradition of the Speedway and always will be.
Zachary Houghton February 12, 2011 at 8:30 AM
Absolutely. Tom was of a classic style; he knew the events of the day didn't need to be overhyped. He let the story tell itself through him.
RIP, Tom. We love you and miss you. | {

Just a few short years ago, there wasn't much reason for cheering or optimism about the Nicholls State football team.
From 2011 through 2014, the team won a total of six games. The Colonels when 0-12 in 2014, a season that saw the departure of then-head coach Charlie Stubbs.
Beginning the following season, though, the Colonels have enjoyed a renaissance and an unprecedented amount of success.
Current head coach Tim Rebowe remade the team, and the Colonels have done better and better each year under his leadership. They just finished their second-straight winning season (a team first) and their second-straight Football Championship Subdivision playoff appearance (also a team first).
On Saturday, Nicholls State traveled to the Pacific Northwest to take on Eastern Washington, a team that was a massive favorite. The Colonels, though, were tough throughout the game. They even took a lead into halftime and seemed to be giving the Eagles more of a challenge than they were expecting.
The win wasn't to be. As Eastern Washington responded in the second half, the Colonels battled strongly but came up short.
None of that should lessen the fact that the Colonels are team on the rise. They have shown a steady and consistent improvement over four years now, and there is every reason to think that trend will continue next year.
It has been an exciting journey for the team's fans, who have enjoyed seeing the hometown team meet with more success year after year. More of those fans are finding their way to the games and giving the Colonels much-needed moral support from the stands.
They have come a long way, and Rebowe surely wants to make sure it continues. The great thing about college programs is that success tends to build success. As the Colonels get more attention for their big wins and inspiring play, more student-athletes will be drawn to Nicholls. In other words, don't look for this success story to change anytime in the near future.
Good job, Colonels. You had a great season and thrilled your many local fans with your excellent teamwork. Although you have a bitter taste in your mouths now, the coming months will give you time to turn that disappointment into fuel for the rest of the journey.
The fans already can't wait until next year. | {

Nancy DeGennaro, Murfreesboro Daily News Journal Published 11:36 a.m. CT Feb. 4, 2019 | Updated 2:25 p.m. CT Feb. 4, 2019
Yoki Buffet took over the former Chef Wang's and revamped the menu Nancy De Gennaro, USA TODAY NETWORK – Tennessee
Longtime fans of Chef Wang's were disappointed to see it close in 2018 after a decade in business. But there's a new buffet in its place.
Yoki Buffet took over the space at 1145 N.W. Broad St. and opened in January.
Crystal Dong told The Daily News Journal last fall that her father-in-law got word the restaurant location was available and purchased the business. The family owns another Yoki Buffet location in Louisville, Kentucky.
"We're trying to expand (the business)," said Cindy Dong, one of the many family members helping run the restaurant in Murfreesboro.
The remodeling job was extensive. The family gutted the interior and renovated the kitchen and dining room. New furnishings are highlighted by images from the Dong family's history, which dates back to second-century China, Cindy Dong said.
"Dong has a long history," Cindy Dong explained.

Formatting Like a Microsoft Word Ninja
December 19, 2017 December 20, 2017 / davethe10r / 10 Comments
"Format guidelines were not instituted to drive you crazy. That's just a perk."
The other day I was reading a blog post by agent-blogger Janet Reid (of Query Shark fame), who had some interesting things to say about the importance of manuscript formatting:
"I'm reading (as are all other agents and editors) a LOT of manuscripts," she said. "When mss follow a consistent format, it helps me assess the pacing. If I get to page twenty and I haven't yet gotten a glimmer of what's at stake for Our Hero/ine, then I know there's a problem. It's essential that page twenty be about the same amount of words across the board."
She went on to note that page 20 comes at about the 6,000-word mark if the text is formatted in Times New Roman. In Verdana, the 20-page point will come at about 5,000 words. With Courier, it's more like 4,400 words.
Simply put, formatting matters. If you follow standard formatting conventions of font size, margin width, and so on, professional readers (including agents, editors and publishers) have an easier time gauging the pacing of your book. Even more importantly, formatting your work correctly can make you look more professional—and more "serious" as a writer.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Microsoft Word is still the number one tool writers use to, well, write. (Yes, I know there are other programs, and I know a lot of writers are migrating to Google Docs.) As I scrolled down the comments on Reid's post, I was amazed at how many writers don't know how to perform the simplest formatting in Word. We're talking basic stuff: auto-indenting paragraphs, inserting chapter breaks, inserting automatic page numbers, and so on. I was flabbergasted to hear some people still indent their paragraphs by hitting the space key five times, or that anyone would manually number the pages of a manuscript. But apparently, Reid sees this all the time.
Since I'm something of a Microsoft Word ninja, I thought I might pass on some important skills to help you get your manuscript submission-ready. The post will be long, but I'm hoping it will be helpful.
First, a quick Q&A:
Q: Is there a standard industry formatting convention?
A: No, there isn't a single, super-secret document that tells you exactly how to format your manuscript for submission. Some publishing pros still want manuscripts formatted in Courier. Others prefer a 1.5″ left margin because they spiral-bind their submissions. Check the agent's or publisher's submission guidelines before doing your final formatting.
Q: What makes you an "expert"?
A: I edit and format documents for a living. In putting together this post, I consulted about a dozen sites on manuscript formatting, most published by authors, editors, and other industry insiders. I'll throw a few of the more helpful links down below.
Q: Can't I just format my manuscript any old way?
A: Absolutely! But if you want to be taken seriously, you should consider using the formatting that agents, editors and publishers prefer.
Q: But isn't Comic Sans more "fun" than Times New Roman?
A: No. Using Comic Sans in any context other than a hastily printed "Restroom Out of Order" sign is a crime against humanity. Stop the madness!
Basic Formatting Guidelines
Most of the sources I consulted agreed on the basics:
Pages: Pages should be letter-sized (8.5″ x 11″), oriented vertically with one-inch margins all around.
Font: Text should be in 12-point Times New Roman. When emphasis is needed, italics (and not underlining or boldface) should be used.
Paragraphs: Paragraphs should be aligned left (not justified) and double-spaced with no extra padding above or below the paragraphs. The first line of each paragraph should be indented by half an inch.
Chapters: Each chapter should begin on a new page. Center "CHAPTER" (in all caps) and then the chapter number at the top of each chapter, then begin the text of the chapter four to six lines below that.
Page Numbers/Headers: Page numbering should begin on the first page of Chapter 1, and should continue unbroken to the end of the book. Manuscripts should have a header that includes the author's name and a shortened title of the work.
CAVEAT: I'm using Microsoft Word 2016, so if you have an older version, some of the controls and menus may show up in different places.
Formatting Pages
To configure your document in Microsoft Word, click on the Layout tab and set the overall document formatting using the first three icons.
Margins: Click the Margins icon and select Normal (1″ on top, bottom, left and right).
Orientation: Click the Orientation icon and make sure the document is configured for Portrait (vertical) instead of Landscape (horizontal) display.
Size: Click the Size icon and make sure your pages are set to Letter 8.5″ x 11″.
That's it. Once you configure these settings, they should apply to your entire document.
Formatting Fonts
The preferred font for most agents and editors is 12-point Times New Roman. To format your manuscript font, first select the Home tab.
Select all of the text in your document by pressing Ctrl-A (⌘-A on a Mac). With all of the text selected, pull down the Font menu and scroll down the alphabetic list of fonts until you find Times New Roman. Click to select it.
Next, with the text still selected, click on the Font Size menu (it's right beside the font menu) and select 12.
Now here's a trick a lot of people don't know about. Select one of your paragraphs, either by clicking in the left margin of the document or by triple-clicking somewhere in the paragraph. If you consult the Styles menu, you'll see that your paragraph is probably defined as "Normal" (default) style. The styles show up as rectangular tiles on the menu, and you know the style of the current selection because it's outlined in gray. To ensure that Word doesn't default back to Calibri (or some other font) at random, right-click on the "Normal" style tile and select "Update Normal to Match Selection."
Formatting Paragraphs
One of the biggest mistakes some writers make with manuscripts is with paragraph indenting. As Reid mentioned in her post, some writers still use the "five spaces" method to create an indent. Others tab over to the 0.5-inch tab stop. If you're doing either of these things, stop now! You'll have no excuse once you know how to indent your paragraphs the right way.
To get started, select one of your "Normal" paragraphs by clicking in the left margin or triple-clicking somewhere in the paragraph. Once you've done this, look for the Ruler (it should literally look like a ruler) above the text, right below the menu ribbon. If you don't see it, click to the View tab and check the box next to "Ruler" in the "Show" section of the ribbon menu. At the zero position on the ruler you'll see a widget that looks like an hourglass with a rectangle at the bottom. Click and drag the top half of the hourglass over to the tick mark at exactly between the left margin and the 1″ mark. The first line of your selected paragraph should now be indented by exactly half an inch.
Of course, that's just one paragraph. You've got lots, right? Make sure the Home tab is selected, then right-click on the "Normal" style tile and select "Update Normal to Match Selection." This will automatically indent all the paragraphs in your document.
"But wait!" you may be thinking. "I don't want my chapter headings or section breaks indented!" Don't worry. We'll fix that.
Now let's make sure the other paragraph settings are correct. With a paragraph selected, click the "Align Left" button on the "Paragraph" menu of the Home Ribbon. You can also press Ctrl-L (⌘-L on a Mac). Please resist the urge to justify your right margin. Though justified text looks nice and polished (published, even), professional readers hate justification because the variable spacing makes the copy hard to edit.
Right beside the "Justified button," though, is the line-spacing icon. Pull down this menu and select "2.0" to double-space your text. If the "Remove Space Before Paragraph" option shows up at the bottom of this menu, pull it down again and click it. Do the same thing is "Remove Space After Paragraph" appears on the menu. You don't want this extra padding.
Once you've aligned your paragraph and fine-tuned the line spacing, right-click on the "Normal" style in the style menu again and select "Update Normal to Match Selection." This will apply the formatting changes to all of your "Normal" paragraphs.
Fixing What You Broke
What if you're reformatting a work in progress that uses tabs (or, deity forbid, spaces) to indent each paragraph?
First of all, AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHH! Second of all, it's easy to fix.
Press Ctrl-H (⌘-H on a Mac) to open the "Find and Replace" dialog box. This box is movable, so you can drag it off to one side if you have enough screen real estate. The window opens in its default configuration, but you'll want the "Word ninja" version. Click the "More>>" button to expand the box to maximum ninja power.
First, click the "Find what" field. Find the "Special" menu at the bottom of the dialog and select "Paragraph Mark." Word will insert "^p" into the "Find what" field.
Second, if you've been using five spaces to indent, click directly after "^p" and type five spaces. (Since they're spaces, you won't see them in the box. But they're there.) If you've been using a manual tab to indent, Select the "Special" menu again and select "Tab character." After you do this, you'll see "^p^t" in the "Find what" field.
Third, click the "Replace with" field. Pull down the "Special" menu (at the bottom of the box) and select "Paragraph Mark." Word will insert "^p" into the "Replace with" field.
What you're telling Word is to look for a tab character (or five spaces), but only at the beginning of a paragraph (right after a paragraph mark). When Word finds this pattern, it will replace it with just a paragraph mark, effectively deleting the stuff you don't want.
If you're feeling cocky, click the "Replace All" button and let 'er rip. If not, click "Find Next" and then "Replace" again and again until you feel brave enough to just click "Replace All."
Now, repent and never use tabs or spaces again to indent your paragraphs.
Formatting Chapters
Now it's time to put some structure into your manuscript. I know a lot of people don't bother using styles, but in my opinion, you can't afford not to use them.
Each chapter in your novel should begin on a new page. You can create a page break two different ways. The clunky way is to click the Insert tab, then click the "Page Break" icon. The easier way is to press Ctrl-Enter (⌘-Enter on a Mac). If you're editing with white space hidden—that is, if the document looks like one continuous strip of white—the page break will show up as a horizontal gray line across the document window. If white space is being displayed, and the text is broken into discrete pages, you'll see an actual new page.
Now let's create a chapter heading. Type "CHAPTER," followed by a space, followed by your chapter number. Right now, the heading is probably formatted like all of your other text: 12-point Times New Roman, indented half an inch. Select the heading, either by clicking in the left margin or by triple-clicking on the heading itself. Then center the heading, either by clicking the "center" icon on the Home ribbon, or by pressing Ctrl-E (⌘-E on a Mac). Then, with the heading still selected, drag the top of the ruler' "hourglass" widget to the zero position so your chapter heading isn't indented.
Now let's style the heading as a heading. Find the "Heading 1" tile on the Styles menu, but don't click it! Instead, right-click on the tile and select "Update Heading 1 to Match Selection." Boom—this updates the style and applies the style to the heading.
Here's the awesome part. When you style chapter headings as "Heading 1," they show up on the "Headings" list on the Navigation Pane. (If you don't see the Navigation Pane on the left side of your document window, click the View tab and check the box next to "Navigation Pane." It also shows up when you press Ctrl-F or ⌘-F to Find text.) Now scroll down through your document, styling each of your chapter headings as "Heading 1." As you do this, they'll appear in the Navigation Pane. This menu of headings is interactive, so when you click on a heading, Word takes you straight to that chapter in your document. As you edit, Word highlights the heading of the chapter you're working on, helping you keep track on where you are in your book.
This is one of the most indispensable features in Microsoft Word. Use it to your advantage!
The text of your chapter should begin four to six lines below your chapter heading. Since both your "Normal" and "Heading 1" styles are double-spaced, this means you should leave either one or two blank paragraphs between the heading and beginning of your chapter. Now go through your manuscript and make sure everything is consistent.
Extra-Special Awesomeness
While you're drafting, you can make your life even easier by adding a brief description to your chapter headings. For example: "CHAPTER 1 – Sally meets Billy at the park," "CHAPTER 2 – Sally goes to school," and "CHAPTER 3 – Billy loses his socks." These descriptions show up on your Navigation Pane, forming a clickable quick-reference outline of your entire story as you go. (If the Navigation Pane truncates the heading, just hover your mouse over it and the entire thing will be displayed.)
Obviously, you'll want to go through and delete these descriptions before you send your manuscript to an agent, editor or publisher. But while you're actively drafting and editing, they're really helpful.
Formatting Scene Breaks
Scene breaks, also known as section breaks or blank-line breaks, are those separators within chapters that usually appear in published novels as an extra space between blocks of paragraphs. When they fall at the bottom or top of a page, they're sometimes indicated by a short line, a row of asterisks, or sometimes an ornamental glyph.
In your manuscript, scene breaks should be set off as a separate, double-spaced paragraph, with either a number sign "#" (or "hashtag" if you're under 20) or a row of three asterisks "***" centered between the margins. You shouldn't include any additional blank lines before or after the scene breaks.
The easiest way to manage scene breaks is to set up a style to handle them. To do this, type your "#" (or "***") and format it correctly by centering the paragraph and eliminating the indent. Then right-click the selected paragraph and find the "Styles" icon on the pop-up menu. (It should be on the top one, at the far right.) Pull this down and click on "Create a style." This will open a dialog box called "Create New Style from Formatting." Name your style "Scene Break" and click "OK."
The "Scene Break" style will appear as a new tile on the "Styles" menu on the Home ribbon. Now, when you want to create a scene break, just type "#" or "***" and click on "Scene Break" and Word will format it for you. Easy peasy.
Title Page and Table of Contents
Do you need a title page? Yes. Do you need a table of contents? Not necessarily, but if you're going to export your manuscript as an e-book for alpha or beta readers, a table of contents can really come in handy.
Title page format is one of the least standardized manuscript elements. Opinions vary, but most everyone agrees that the following elements must be included:
Title of the work
Author's contact information
Some sources suggest that you include the work's genre as well as information about your agent, if you have one.
Here's a good template for a title page, based on an analysis of a number of industry recommendations. Beginning at the top of the page, at the left margin, type your name (on one line), your address (on two lines) and your phone number and email address (on separate lines). Single-space this block of text.
Skip down to roughly the middle of the page and type the title of your work, in all caps, centered on the page. Skip a line and type "by," then skip a line and type your name. Skip two lines and type "### Words," replacing "###" with the word count of your manuscript, rounded to the nearest hundred. (Some guides say to the nearest 1,000.)
You can add your genre if you want, though if an agent or publisher has requested a manuscript they probably already know the genre of the work.
One thing you shouldn't bother putting on your cover page is a copyright notice. But don't take it from me; take it from Janet Reid:
Your work is protected by copyright law as soon as you write it.
Once your work is sold to a publisher, there's a clause in your publishing contract that says the publisher will register the work with the US Copyright office.
You should not register something with the copyright office at the query stage. And you also don't need to put the (c) notice on your manuscript.
Basically, including a copyright notice in your manuscript makes you look like a newb, and you don't want that, do you?
Sure, you can create a manual table of contents, but why would you want to do that when it's so easy to have Word create one for you?
The table of contents should come directly after the title page. First, create a new page by pressing Ctrl-Enter (⌘-Enter on a Mac). Type "Contents" or "Table of Contents" and format as a heading by clicking the "Heading 1" style. Then hit Enter a couple of times.
Now click to the References tab. (In some previous versions of Word, this feature was in the Insert tab under "References.") Click on the "Table of Contents" icon and select "Custom Table of Contents…" In the dialog box that opens, make sure that "Tab leader" is selected to a row of dots, and click the down arrow beside the "Show levels" setting until the number is "1." Then click "OK."
You should now have a table of contents containing the names and page numbers of all of the chapters you've marked using the "Heading 1" style. To make sure the table is formatted correctly, select it by clicking on the table and then un-indent the lines using the top-hourglass slider in the Ruler. Make sure the font, font size, and other settings are consistent with the rest of your document. When you've done this, right-click on one of the lines, pull down the "Styles" menu and click "Create a Style." Call this style "Table of Contents" and click "OK."
The table of contents doesn't track your content in real time, so you'll have to tell Word when you want it to update. To do this, right-click on the table and select "Update Field." An "Update Table of Contents" dialog box will open. Click the radio button beside "Update entire table" and click "OK." Voila! All of your chapters, chapter headings, and page numbers will synch up with what's in your manuscript.
Formatting Headings and Page Numbers
Remember Janet Reid's comment about the crucial page 20? The only way readers will know when they arrive on page 20 is if the pages are numbered. What really blew me away was when Reid said, "Recently I've had several authors who have inserted page numbers by hand…." Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? This actually happens? Yes, and apparently it's not uncommon. This means, of course, that one little change to the text on page one can throw off the pagination for the rest of the manuscript. For the love of Mike, don't do this!
Besides page numbers, another key aspect of manuscript formatting conventions is the inclusion of a header at the top of every page. Imagine a busy agent carrying a stack of five unbound manuscripts. She drops the stack and the pages get mixed up. Without a header on each page, the agent wouldn't be able to sort the identically formatted manuscripts back into proper order.
Here's another tricky part. The cover page should not have a header on it. Any pages before the first content page of your book should use lower-case Roman numerals. The actual numbering should restart at chapter one (or your prologue, if you have one), so that page 20 comes at the actual 20th page of the text of your book. We'll call this point the "story beginning."
Here's how to make that all happen.
To get started, go to the View tab and make sure "Print Layout" is selected under "Views." (The other options are "Read Mode" and "Web Layout." You don't want either.) Now, look at the page breaks in your document. If you see just a gray line (and not actual page boundaries), position your cursor over the gray line. It will change to the "Show white space" cursor, which looks like a capital H with up/down arrows in the pockets. Double-click on the line and you'll expand the continuous page to individual pages.
You can collapse this later in the same way: just point to the break and double-click.
Now we need to convert the page break before your first chapter or prologue to a section break. Click to the Layout tab and click right before your first chapter heading. The insertion point should be right to the left of the word "CHAPTER" (or "PROLOGUE") at the story beginning.
Now find the "Breaks" option in the "Page Setup" section of the Layout tab. Pull down the menu and click on the "Next Page" option under "Section Breaks." Nothing will look different, but this is a crucial change.
Click over to Word's Insert tab. Click the "Header" icon and select "Edit Header." (You can also double-click directly on the header to edit it.) The ribbon will change to include some new options only available when working with headers. ("Header and Footer Tools" under the Design Tab.)
First, find the "Navigation" section of the Design tab. You'll see an option called "Link to Previous" that is probably selected (grayed out). Click on it to deselect it. The "Same as Previous" message at the bottom, left of the header will go away. You should now just see "Header -Section 2-."
Click on the header area and type the following: Your last name, a slash, a shortened title of your book, a slash, then the word "Page." For example, if your name is Smith and your book is called "The Short, Happy Life of Wendell Jones," you might type something like, "Smith/Wendell Jones/Page." If word is indenting the heading, move the top-hourglass widget back to the zero position to make it stop.
With your cursor still at the end of the header line, press Ctrl-R (⌘-R on a Mac) to right-align the text. (You could also click back to Home and click on the Align Right icon in the Paragraph menu, but this is quicker.) Now, with your insertion point to the right of "Page," type a space and then click the "Page Number" icon on the Design ribbon. From the menus, select "Current Position" and then "Plain Number." The number you see will likely be 2 or 3 or even higher.
Click on the "Page Number" icon again and select "Format Page Numbers." The "Page Number Format" dialog box will open. Make sure the number format is set to "1, 2, 3, …" Down where it says "Page numbering," Click the radio button next to "Start at" and make sure the number next to it is "1." When you click "OK," you should see the page number at the story beginning change to "1."
What you do next depends on how much "stuff" you have before the first actual page of your story.
If you just have a title page…
Scroll back to your title page. The label beneath it should say "Header -Section 1-." You'll probably see a duplication of the header you used for your main chapters. Select the whole header by triple-clicking on the text and hit delete. Click "Close Header and Footer" and you're done!
If you have a title page and other stuff…
If you've added a table of contents or other pages before your story beginning (like a dedication page), you'll want to retain the header, except for on the title page, but change the numbering before the story beginning.
Scroll up to the page right after your title page. This is likely where your table of contents or acknowledgments page is. If the header isn't selected for editing, double-click on it to edit.
Click on the "Page Number" icon and select "Format Page Numbers." The "Page Number Format" dialog box will open. Click on the "Number format" menu and set to "i, ii, iii, …" then click "OK." Now click on the checkbox next to "Different First page" under the "Options" section of the ribbon. Then click "Close Header and Footer."
If you did everything correctly, the title page should display no header at all, and the first page after that (but before the story beginning) will have the "Name/Title/Page ii" combination on it. The header at your story beginning should be "Name/Title/Page 1." Mission accomplished! Once you set this up, you shouldn't ever have to mess with the headers again … unless you change your title (or your name).
A Few More Formatting Conventions
Spaces Between Sentences
If you know what a "typewriter" is, you were probably taught at some point to hit the space bar twice after sentence-final punctuation (periods, question marks, exclamation points, close quotes). If this old practice is still fossilized in your mind, it's time to re-train your brain. If you can't get out of the habit, use "Find and Replace" (Ctrl-H or ⌘-H on a Mac) to find all of your double-spaces and replace them with single spaces.
Formatting for Chapter Beginnings
Published novels will oven employ drop caps or a line of words in small caps at the beginning of chapters. Resist the urge to so this in your manuscripts. Agents and editors don't want manuscripts that look frou-frou and professionally typeset—they just want a clean, simple copy they can read quickly.
Italics, Underlining and Boldface
Most formatting guides indicate that you shouldn't use underlining or boldface anywhere in your manuscript. If you need to emphasize a word or phrase, use italics. Back when typewriters were the state of the art, underlining was the norm. Today, italics are standard. To quickly set text into italics, press Ctrl-I (⌘-I on a Mac).

Writing with Emotion: the Objective Correlative
June 5, 2015 September 20, 2016 / rosalynmeves / 6 Comments
In a recent Writer's Unboxed post, agent and writing pro Donald Maass talks about the importance of writing emotion—and the frequency with which authors get it wrong. Three weeks ago, I attended a workshop by Martine Leavitt, who argued that relying on descriptions of a character's internal emotions only serves to bore, or worse, distance the readers. (She said she never wanted to read about a character's stomach or heart again.)
As I listened to her speak, I felt convicted—and made a note to go back through my MS looking for just those words. But beyond feeling guilty, I was frustrated: if emotion was so powerful, but I'm not supposed to tell readers what characters are feeling and I'm not supposed to show it through physical symptoms, what am I supposed to do?
Well, one option, as Maass suggests, is to focus on "third level emotions"—to describe the character's reflections on their own emotions and bring readers into the moment.
Another option, what Leavitt advocates, is the objective correlative.
If, like me a three weeks ago, you've never heard of the concept, let me explain.
I'm not an expert on the topic, but I find it a provocative one; I've been trying to study up on it and thought my research might help someone besides just me. And because I tend to do best with concrete examples, I've tried to include lots of examples to illustrate the concept.
The term "objective correlative" comes from T. S. Eliot who borrowed it from nineteenth-century artist Washington Allston: the "objective correlative" refers to "a set of objects, a situation, a chain of events which shall be the formula of that particular emotion; such that when the external facts, which must terminate in sensory experience, are given, the emotion is immediately evoked." In other words, rather than showing us the physical symptoms of emotion or telling us what the character feels, an author gives us an
object–a physical thing, a landscape, etc.—and endows that with meaning so that we're able to recognize what the character feels, and, more importantly, feel it ourselves.
Eliot argues that Shakespeare uses this masterfully: we discover Lady Macbeth's state of mind through the images that her night waking accumulates; Hamlet's own inability to process his emotions stems from the fact that he lacks a metaphor or objective outlet that can encompass all that he's feeling.
Below, I outline four ways to use the objective correlative:
Through objects
Through metaphors
Through point-of-view description
Through a situation or chain of events.
1. Sometimes the objective correlative uses objects endowed with meaning to underscore a character's emotional arc.
A classic example of the use of objects comes from Tennessee Williams' Glass Menagerie. One of the main characters, a young girl named Laura who limps from a childhood bout with polio, has a collection of glass animals that she treasures. Their fragility is a symbol of her own fragility, and the plays treatment of the animals reflects her emotional state: when she feels well, she spends time polishing and arranging the creatures. But at the height of the drama, one of the animals is broken. Because we already know to associate the animals with Laura, the crushed animal underscores her crushed hopes in a devastating way.
Shannon Hale's Goose Girl also uses a meaningful object to underscore a character's emotional arc. When Princess Ani is sent away to marry the prince of another kingdom, her mother gives her a handkerchief:
It was made from a thin ivory cloth with green, rust, and yellow lace edging.
"The stitching was done by my grandmother." Her voice was soft, as though to convince Ani that the words were for her alone and not a performance for the crowd. She unfastened a horse-head brooch from her breast. "My mother used to carry it, and then she gave it to me before she died. I have always felt it held a part of her. When I wear it, I feel her eyes on me, approving, guiding, protecting. So I send with you my own protection."
The queen winced first, then stabbed her third finger with the brooch pin. She squeezed three drops of blood onto the handkerchief. Her hands were shaking. . . .
She put the stained handkerchief in Ani's hand and held it a moment, sincerity straining her brow. "We are of one blood. I will protect you."
All through the fraught journey to the capitol, readers see Ani draw courage and comfort from the handkerchief. But when her servants turn on her, the handkerchief highlights her despair without Hale having to describe it:
Her cold fingers fumbled at the wet fabric at her breast where the handkerchief had been. Where it should be. Ani felt for it, patted her dress, looked at the ground around her feet. It was gone. She realized that she must have lost it in the stream. It would be far away by now. Who would protect her?
Because readers have been prepped to know how important the handkerchief was, we understand how devastating its loss is–and how vulnerable she is now.
2. Sometimes the objective correlative takes the form of a metaphors that reveal a deeper truth about the character's emotional state.
In Chris Crowe's Death Coming up a Hill, he uses the metaphor of a bridge to tell us how the main character feels pulled between his two parents:
. . . I looped
one arm around Dad's neck and
reached my other armaround Mom's. Feeling
their love for me, I tugged to
pull them closer, to
knit us into a
tight group hug, but Dad leaned right
and Mom leaned left, and
I spanned the distance
between them like a bombed-out
bridge.
A more powerful form of this metaphor might be recurring throughout a book. Martine Leavitt mentioned that in Keturah and Lord Death, she used the forest as a metaphor to reflect Keturah's state of mind:
How thin the air felt at the forest's edge, how ghostly the trees that guarded their realm…. The whole world seemed as delicate as a dandelion seed, and as fleeting…. How sad to know that the figment village of my imagination would not vanish when I ended, to understand that it was not I who had invented the moon the first time I realized how lovely it was. To admit that it was not my breath that made the winds blow…. [M]y heart, my heart knew that when I closed my eyes I invented the night sky and the stars too. Wasn't the whole dome of the sky the same shape as the inside of my skull? Didn't I create the sun and the day when I raised my eyelids every morning?
This evocative passage lets readers feel Keturah's despair at both the transience of her existence and her immateriality: the forest, like herself, is thin and fleeting. The world spins on without her.

3. Sometimes the objective correlative comes from the mood created by descriptions filtered through a particular point of view.
Maggie Stiefvater is a master at this. Here she is, reflecting on her own process of creating emotion:
Man, I was working hard in this little section. In reality, the hallway of the
house is lush and content and established. But inside our two protagonists,
trouble brews — you can see it in the mirror. The side table, on the outside of
the glass, is docile. But the mirror-image of the tidy hallway is crazed
and twisted and rakish. Again, I could've just told you: on
the outside, the boys look foxy and orderly in suits, but on the inside, they
are hot messes. But I don't want you to know. I want you to feel. And our old
friends, those countless literary devices of simile, metaphor, allusion,
figurative language … that's the way in. It's not about fancy literary prizes.
It's not about seeming impenetrable or smart or high fallutin. I'm not trying
to impress anyone. I am trying to make you feel a story, that's all. I guess
what I'm trying to say is that I don't believe in the literary/ commercial
divide. And I don't believe that literary is good or bad. I believe that good
novel makes readers feel, and the more readers I can make feel, the more
successful I will consider that book.
For another great breakdown of a scene from Scorpio Races, see here.
In the opening chapter of Shannon Hale's Goose Girl, the aunt who raised Princess Ani prepares to leave, and we see both the aunt's dissatisfaction and Ani's impending loneliness through the description:
That year, when the trees burned the fire of late summer into their leaves and the ground mist was a ghost of the river, long and wet and cold, the aunt looked from her window to the walls around her and imagined another winter inside them. She began to see the world as a bird sees bars, and she scratched her arms beneath her sleeves.
The aunt took Ani to the shore of the swan pond where the lazy-armed trees dipped themselves into their own reflections and the aspens' hard little leaves shook in the wind with a noise like snapping fingers. The aunt pointed north, where few people lived and trees grew thick and prickly green all year, and where the girl could not follow.
"I'm going home," she said. She kissed Ani's forehead, but her eyes did not leave the purple horizon.
The carefully chosen descriptions do the emotional work in this passage: the haunting "ghost," the confining sense of both "bars" and the aunt's scratching. Even the unfriendly description of the wood–"hard little leaves," "snapping fingers," "prickly green"–cue readers into Ani's emotional state. The final image, of the aunt already focused on a more promising horizon, underscores Ani's isolation.
4. Sometimes the objective correlative takes the form of a "situation, or chain of events" that allow the reader to experience a particular emotion.
Consider this scene from Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods. He opens by describing a campsite on July 5, 1983 in mundane terms: three adults, a group of kids cook dinner, properly secure their food in a tree, and set up camp for the night.
About midnight, a black bear came prowling around the margins of the camp, spied the bag, and brought it down by climbing one of the trees and breaking a branch. He plundered the food and departed, but an hour later he was back, this time entering the camp itself, drawn by the lingering smell of cooked meat in the campers' clothes and hair, in their sleeping bags and tent fabric. It was to be a long night for the Canimia party. Three times between midnight and 3:30 a.m. the bear came to camp.
Imagine, if you will, lying in the dark alone in a little tent, nothing but a few microns of trembling nylon between you and the chill night air, listening to a 400-pound bear moving around your campsite. Imagine its quiet grunts and mysterious snufflings, the clatter of upended cookware and sounds of moist gnawings, the pad of its feet and the heaviness of its breath, the singing brush of its haunch along your tent side. Imagine the hot flood of adrenaline, that unwelcome tingling in the back of your arms, at the sudden rough bump of its snout against the foot of your tent, the alarming wild wobble of your frail shell as it roots through the backpack that you left casually propped by the entrance–with, you suddenly recall, a Snickers in the pouch. Bears adore Snickers, you've heard.
And then the dull thought–oh, God–that perhaps you brought the Snickers in here with you, that it's somewhere in here, down by your feet or underneath you or–oh, shit, here it is. Another bump of grunting head against the tent, this time near hour shoulders. More crazy wobble. Then silence, a very long silence, and–wait, shhh . . . yes!–the unutterable relief of realizing the bear has withdrawn to the other side of the camp or shambled back into the woods. I tell you right now, I couldn't stand it.
So imagine then what it must have been like for poor little David Anderson, aged twelve, when at 3:30 a.m., on the third foray, his tent was abruptly rent with a swipe of claw and the bear, driven to distraction by the rich, unfixable, everywhere aroma of hamburger, bit hard into a flinching limb and dragged him shouting and flailing through the camp and into the woods.
From his description of the situation and the events as they unfold, we experience a very real terror, without him ever having to name it. And though he does refer to some physical sensations, the bulk of the emotion comes from the details he chooses: the events ("mysterious shufflings," "moist gnawings") and the objects ("trembling nylon"). Bryson also uses an assortment of rhetorical devices: a string of parallel sentences in the first paragraph building towards a climax; semi-onomatopoeic words to round out the sensory images ("grunt" "snufflings" "clatter"); and the use of dashes to interrupt his interior monologue, reflecting his increasingly fractured thinking as the terror mounts.
What are your favorite ways for using emotion? What other examples of the objective correlative can you think of?

Today's post is both a teaching tip and a writing tip.
As a teacher, I often find myself commenting on student papers that something "doesn't flow."
As a writer, I also find myself wrestling with flow in my own writing.
And yet, "flow" is one of those infuriatingly vague concepts that can sometimes be hard to teach. But I've stumbled across one trick that's fairly easy to remember and works great to teach students a concrete sense of "flow."
Here's the rule:
Move from "old" to "new" information.
Now some explanation for the rule. Writer's have an unspoken contract with their readers to lead them in an understandable direction–part of this means making sure readers get the connection between one idea and another. In other words, readers don't really expect us to take them over the waterfall with no warning.
To do this, it's often (especially in more essay-style writing) a good idea to start sentences simply, with information that's already been raised in the paper (the old information). There's even some scientific research to back up the fact that readers *expect* familiar information in the "topic position" (the first part of a sentence). At the same time, we've been trained to expect new and/or significant information in the "stress position" of a sentence (the end of a sentence). Hence the rule–start with familiar information, then move to new information. (For a great, if more technical summary of how this rule can improve scientific writing, see Judith Swan and George Gopen's "The Science of Scientific Writing.")
Look at the following examples, from Joseph Williams' Style.Which of the two "flows" best?
Some astonishing questions about the nature of the universe have been raised by scientists studying black holes in space. The collapse of a dead star into a point perhaps no larger than a marble creates a black hole. So much matter compressed into so little volume changes the fabric of space around it in puzzling ways.

A black hole is created by the collapse of a dead star into a point perhaps no larger than a marble. So much matter compressed into so little volume changes the fabric of space around it in puzzling ways.
Most readers will say the second does. And the reason it flows better, is because the second sentence of the second example starts with familiar (old) information–the idea of a black hole raised by the first sentence. In the first example, there's a sentence length gap between connecting ideas, and readers feel that gap (even if they don't notice it consciously) as a lack of flow. (When I use this example with students, I also like to point out that the second example uses passive voice to achieve greater flow–in other words, passive voice isn't always wrong. Like most writing and rhetorical choices, it depends on the situation. If you're using passive voice for a reason, it's okay. Then again, this might be a post for another day).
While I wouldn't claim that this rule has revolutionized my writing or my students', it has given me a more effective tool for smooth writing. I hope it will do the same for you! | {

Kier appointed to deliver state of the art £42m school and leisure development in Ponteland
The c.100,000m2 plot is situated to the immediate south of Ponteland town centre and will include a comprehensive range of community facilities all in one space, including two new schools to support Northumberland's Education and Skills Priorities 2017-20[1] plan.
Kier will build a 420-place primary school with state-of-the-art teaching and learning facilities, open plan breakout areas, a multi-purpose hall and a dedicated dining hall as well as a 1,600-place secondary school with teaching rooms and learning support areas, halls, studios and a lecture theatre.
A leisure centre with a six-lane 25m swimming pool, a gym, climbing wall and soft play zone will all be part of a stunning curved building that it set to be a focal point of the new project. In addition, the Ponteland development will feature a full size 3G pitch, café, library and community fire station.
Construction is set to commence this winter and is due for completion in summer 2020 for the start of the 2020/21 academic year.
Brian McQuade, managing director of Kier Construction Scotland & North-East England, said: "Working collaboratively with Northumberland County Council, we are looking forward to delivering the Ponteland development that will bring huge benefits to the local area.
"We have a strong track record in delivering first-class educational and local community buildings and our aim is to create, with the client team, learning environments in which students can thrive. Throughout the duration of the project, we will work with the local supply chain and look to offer training and job opportunities as well as engage with residents to ensure that they see local benefits."
Peter Jackson, Leader of Northumberland County Council said: "I am delighted the contract has been awarded to Kier Construction who are local to North East and we are confident that we can now guarantee the best possible value for money for our residents and communities as well as growing the local economy through the construction contract.
"We know the community was delighted with the approved design for the development and ensuring top quality learning environments are available for our young people is a key priority for us. This exciting project will provide modern facilities for students for years into the future."
This latest win by Kier reinforces its strength within the educational sector. In the north east alone, the business is currently delivering four new schools under the ESFA framework.

When it comes to drawing a map of a place, Wake Island is about as easy as it gets. The small Pacific atoll is small, distinctive in shape, and practically begs the casual observer to try his hand at cartography. The familiar outline of Wake atoll has been variously described as a wishbone, horseshoe, or simply V-shaped, with the three islets – Peale, Wake proper, and Wilkes – flanking a shallow lagoon that opens wide to the west. During my research for Building for War I was drawn to the many maps of Wake that I encountered from hand-drawn sketches in letters to professional renderings in archives to modern maps. The subject is the same but each map is unique. They are like snapshots in time, showing Wake in its historical context and the perspective of the mapmaker.
Early in my research I was delighted to find maps drawn in letters sent home during the year before the war. On December 23, 1940, three days before departing for Wake with the pioneer party (and, coincidentally, exactly one year before Wake fell to the Japanese), my grandfather wrote a letter to his daughter Donna, describing the dangerous unloading conditions ahead when they reached Wake and he drew a simple sketch of the atoll. Harry Olson, in charge of the unloading operation, was focused on the one notch on the south shore where they would have to bring in the barges of valuable equipment – waves, wind, and good luck permitting.
Carpenter Peter Hansen arrived on Wake in the spring of 1941 and settled in to the tent camp on the southwest arm of Wake. He wrote frequently to his wife and family in California and often included sketches of his observations. (I am grateful to Mary Anne Collins for sharing her late father's letters and family documents for my book.) Unfortunately, none of his drawings made the cut for the book. I included a couple of his sketches in my earlier post "Draw It, 1941" but his map of Wake is my favorite. Drawn in late March 1941, Hansen's map focuses on Camp 1 and the waterfront where the main activity was at that time. The carpenters had just begun work on the first structures in Camp 2 on northwest Wake, connected by a slender road through thick brush.
When surveyor Joe McDonald took pencil to paper in late August, his map showed a more detailed physical outline of the atoll and surrounding reef. Thanks to his son, Joe, I was able to include excerpts from his many letters from Wake in my book. McDonald's attention to accurate perspective and coordinates on Wake reflects his trade, just as his peripheral comments reflect his dry sense of humor: "McDonald & Co. LTD Map & Chart Makers (Maps for All Occasions)," and "Shark and Eel Territory (STAY OUT)" on the western reef. We can see the layout of Camp 2 on the northwest end of Wake, by now fully occupied by the contractors, and the new bridge linking Wake to Peale as evidence of construction progress.
Several important maps are included in the front matter map section of Building for War. One of these is the 1935 map drawn by U.S. Navy Lt. C. W. Porter during his secret survey in conjunction with the initial Pan American Airways trip to Wake. This map shows Wake prior to any human development (save the ruins of an old Japanese fishing camp) with detailed descriptions of strata and flora. A second map, drawn by CPNAB engineers and dated December 1, 1941, shows the civilian contractors' progress to date on Wake just before war broke out. I vividly remember my first sight of these maps: I found the original 1935 map, several feet square, in the National Archives, Pacific Region in San Bruno California, and pored over it for hours, imagining Wake in its native state. The December 1941 map was a blueprint drawing that I discovered in the Morrison-Knudsen Co. records stored in a cavernous warehouse in Boise Idaho. This box of records had likely not been touched for decades. As I carefully unfolded this original map (the creases are still evident in the shadows on the map copy in my book), the date leaped out at me: this was Wake Island on the very eve of the war for which they were preparing, but no one knew how close it was.
Many postwar Wake accounts use or adapt the excellent map created for the USMC monograph, "The Defense of Wake," by Robert D. Heinl in 1947. With my focus on the civilian contractors and in order to accurately describe their Wake Island, I commissioned outline maps, expertly constructed by Bill Cameron of Portland Oregon, and enjoyed working with him to include the aspects of Wake that I discussed in the book. I have encountered, scanned, photographed, and collected many maps of Wake over the last several years and continue to seek and find pieces of the historical puzzle. Maps provide fascinating windows on a place and time – and often on the mapmaker himself. | {

We'd like to invite everyone to the first Sailing Discovery Day at Tempe Town Lake on Saturday October 13 from 1pm to 5 pm. Stop by before you go to the Tempe Oktoberfest party!
Who should come: Anyone who's interested in learning more about sailing, sailing in Arizona, our club, or fun people in Arizona.
We'll have several types of boats there and with any luck there will be a comfortable breeze to take some rides and get your first sailing experience. We'll also have information regarding classes and other ways to get involved in the sport of sailing! | {

The Shape Generator concept uses individual modules to transform areas into different types of spaces, such as an exhibition hall, dirt bike track or a sitting area for an audience.
Winner of a Red Dot Design Award, the Shape Generator concept would be made up of module cells that can be controlled on command. The system's modules would be powered by pistons, which would raise or lower the modules in seconds to create an array of designs, including furniture, a maze or walls or even a dirt-bike track. According to the designers, the system would be self-cleaning, and could be used outside and well and inside and on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. | {

Staging your home will photograph better and will stand out among the listings to generate more buyer interest.
Simply stated, home staging isn't about concealing flaws but about showing a property in its best possible light. According to a recent survey from the Real Estate Staging Association (RESA), professionally staged homes spent 72% less time on the market. One reason as to why the property typically sells faster is that buyers can almost effortlessly imagine themselves at "home" rather than merely in a cold, empty space. Buyers can see what a room really looks like, how it lives, and for challenging floor plans, as to how furniture can be arranged.
Yet another reason as to why home staging is worth the investment is that fact that 95% of home buyers look online either independently or with a licensed Real Estate agent. Online is where you make your first impression and where buyers make the decision whether to view the property or simply give it a pass. Your home will photograph better and will stand out among the listings to generate more buyer interest.
The stager will inspect your home from top to bottom and detail what needs to be done to get it ready to sell. After discussing the possibilities during an initial consultation, thereafter you will be presented with a proposal outlining these recommendations and associated costs in order to come up with a plan of action.
Once the contract is approved, you will set a date with the stager to get the property ready for the move-in. Generally taking anywhere from approximately 4-6 hours, the staging team will bring in on-trend furniture, artwork, rug(s), greenery, pillows, beds and sumptuous bedding, along with appropriate accessories.
Once the job is completed, your home will have been transformed from merely another empty space into a fashionable, stylish space in which buyers can see themselves living.
Although your home may already be decorated beautifully, note that interior design and home staging are completely different fields. Undoubtedly you love the way your decorating has turned out, it may not be the taste of all buyers. It takes the experience and objectivity of a stager to prepare the property for mass appeal, no matter their personal style, to engage as many buyers as possible.
The ultimate decision is yours, yet when it comes down to helping your home sell faster and, quite often, at a higher price, then what do you have to lose? | {

Is hoarding a problem for you?
The handyman service offering a mobile repair's service for Somerset residents who are either over the age of 60, living with a disability, on a low-income, or who could be considered vulnerable.
Mary Irwin (Dip Counselling, MBACP) offers 1 to 1 counselling which can be helpful in coping with the effects of; anxiety, abuse, bereavemet, depression, loss, low self esteem, relationship problems and trauma.
All sites are open 40 hours per week on 5 days. They open at 8am and shut at 4pm, except Monday when they are open until 7pm and Sunday when they are open until 1pm. All sites close on two days during the week, with half the sites open on Tuesday and Wednesday and half on Thursday and Friday, so there is always a local alternative open.
FurniCare accept donated furniture, electrical items and other household items, if in working order and good condition. They collect good quality unwanted household furniture and goods and sell the items at reasonable prices to those who are in receipt of benefits or on a low income within the South Somerset, West Dorset, North East Dorset and East Devon area.
Furnitrust's objectives are to help those in need in the Taunton Deane area and to reduce waste by recycling furniture and electrical equipment through a non-profit making charity which collects items to sell at low prices to those on a low income or benefits.
Items for recycling must be in good condition as they have no facilities to repair or renewing. Electrical items must be in full working order, and any upholstered items need to have the label attached indicating that they meet fire safety regulations.
You could chose to use Freecycle or Freegle, or place a free ad in your local papers in order to rehome a wide range of items for reuse.
You may no longer want the items you have marked for disposal but they may be of value to someone else. You could consider doing a local car boot sale or having your own garage sale.
Every local newspaper in Somerset carries small ads, as do local editions of free advertising magazines, and some even offer adverts for nothing if you are selling items below a certain value.
Alternatively for the more technologically minded, on the internet there are many sales opportunities, from auction sites like eBay to advert-led sales sites like the Somerset section of Gumtree.
You may want to consider auctioning your possessions if you think that they have any value. A number of auction houses are available in the South Somerset area ranging from those catering for house clearance up to fine art and quality furniture. | {

Updated list of players Eagles scouts spoke with at the Senior Bowl practices, with analysis
By Jimmy Kempski
Eagles NFL
After each practice at the Senior Bowl, players are available on the field to speak both with NFL scouts and media. Teams will speak with hundreds of prospects throughout the draft process, at the Senior Bowl, the NFL Combine, at pro days, individual workouts, and visits to team complexes.
In other words, don't make too much of the following list of players, although it's noteworthy that there isn't a randomness to it. Scouts seek out specific players after practice and zero in on them.
The Eagles initially spoke with five players. And then four more. Here are the final three:
Zach Banner, OT, USC (6'8, 361)
MORE ON THE EAGLES
Eagles more likely to find wide receiver help in free agency than the draft
Senior Bowl practice notes: Day 2
With draft deep at positions of need, will Eagles trade back to acquire more picks later?
Source: Eagles expected to free up significant cap space
Banner is one of the biggest human beings on the planet, and he is athletic for his size (emphasis on "for his size"). As you might expect of a 361-pound tackle, Banner moves defenders off the ball against their will in the run game but can struggle with speedier edge rushers, although he's a wide man to try to run around.
In the pros, Banner's best fit is probably at RT, which could interest the Eagles depending on what they think of Halapoulivaati Vaitai as a future starter.
On the downside (and this is a significant red flag), Banner allowed three sacks in 2016 and was flagged for a whopping 12 penalties.
Ryan Glasgow, DT, Michigan (6'3, 299)
Glasgow isn't flashy, but he was a solid run defender on a Michigan defense that allowed just 3.1 yards per carry in 2016. On the season, Glasgow had 43 tackles, 4 sacks, and 1 forced fumble.
With Bennie Logan slated to become a free agent this upcoming offseason, combined with the fact that two of the Eagles' division rivals – the Cowboys and Redskins – have dominant run blocking offensive lines, adding a run stuffing defensive tackle could make sense for the Eagles.
Carroll Phillips, LB, Illinois (6'3, 237)
In 2016, Phillips had 56 tackles, 9 sacks, 20 tackles for loss, and 1 forced fumble. Where he would fit with the Eagles is unclear. He could potentially be a situational pass rusher early in his career, with the idea of trying to add bulk to his thin frame, or the Eagles could view him as a SAM linebacker in their 4-3.
With two legal cases still to be litigated, Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham could eventually face discipline from the league. Bradham will also be in the final year of his contract in 2017. While Bradham had a good season in 2016, if the team believes that he is likely to miss time in 2017, they could save $3,000,000 under their cap. The addition of Phillips or another linebacker could be a cheaper option.

SM Entertainment Announces New Female Supergroup "Girls On Top"
Ford Carter December 26, 2021
Already being seen as SM's female equivalent to SuperM, Girls On Top will feature some of SM's biggest female artists.
Who are the Girls On Top members?
Girls On Top is set to be a seven-piece girl group that will feature soloist BoA, Girls' Generation's Taeyeon and Hyoyeon, Red Velvet's Seulgi and Wendy, and Aespa's Winter and Karina.
The Hallyu Legends BoA and Girls Generation
Thirty-five year old BoA debuted under SM Entertainment back in August of 2000, and was scouted at her own brother's audition for the company. Having been in the South Korean music industry for more than two decades, she is arguably one of the most recognisable faces in K-pop.
Thirty-two year old Taeyeon debuted in SM Entertainment's girl group Girls' Generation (SNSD) back in 2007. Girls' Generation was arguably one of the biggest names in K-pop back in the late 2000's and early 2010's, helping to spread the Hallyu wave around the world. She made her official debut as a soloist back in 2015.
Thirty-two year old Hyoyeon was also a member of Girls' Generation, making her debut in 2007. Prior to becoming a member of the group, she worked with Janet Jackson's choreographer, and was a silhouette dancer for BoA during a performance at the Mnet KM Music Festival in 2005. She made her official debut as a soloist back in 2016.
Versatile Queens Red Velvet
Twenty-seven year old Seulgi began her career as a trainee at SM in 2007, when she was cast from a public audition. Seulgi has been a member of SM girl group Red Velvet since debut in 2014. She is also a member of Red Velvet sub-unit Irene & Seulgi, which formed in 2020. She will also feature on Bam Bam's upcoming pre-release single "Who are You" set to release December 28, 2021.
Twenty-seven year old Wendy has been a member of Red Velvet since their debut back in 2014. She recently had to take a year-long hiatus following a major accident when she fell off stage during rehearsals for the 2019 SBS Gayo Daejeon, where she suffered fractures in her wrist, pelvis, and received several facial injuries. Wendy debut as a soloist with the mini album "Like Water" earlier this year in April.
Leaders of the New Generation Aespa
Twenty-one year old Karina is a member of SM's monster rookie girl group Aespa, which made their debut late in 2020. She trained for a total of four years prior to her debut, and, apart from appearing in Taemin's music video for "Want", this marks her first project extracurricular to Aespa.
Twenty year old Winter (who is set to turn twenty-one on the day of Girls On Top's first stage performance), is also another member of SM's rookie girl group Aespa. Winter also trained for a total of four year prior to her debut. Many fans of Aespa have compared her looks to that of Girls' Generation's Taeyeon, who is also a member of Girls On Top.
The group is set to make its debut with a special stage on New Year's Day, which is expected to be a part of SM's free online concert SMTOWN LIVE 2022: SMCU EXPRESS@KWANGYA.
The group will also release its first original song at 6:00 p.m. KST on January 3.

I have a EAR that contains two EJB JARs and a WAR. The WAR is dependent on EJBs.
When I deploy the EAR, the deployment of the WAR starts before the EJB deployment is done. When the code inside the WAR looks up a EJB via JNDI, it fails because EJB is not deployed yet.
Is there a way to enforce the order so WAR is always deployed last? | {

Q: Embed a Powerpoint in a Web Page Is there any way to embed a PowerPoint slide show in an HTML page using just the standard tags etc? I tried using a iframe, but that just results in the PowerPoint being downloaded.
<iframe src="Chapter1.pptx">Your browser does not support.</iframe>
I am looking for a way to show the slide show using only standard stuff. I realize I could use google docs or flash or something, but I'd rather have a simple implementation.
Does the web just not know how to process a PowerPoint presentation?
A: Plain and simple...this is the best method to embed any Microsoft or Adobe file into a HTML website.
<iframe src='https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=[https://www.your_website/file_name.pptx]' width='100%' height='600px' frameborder='0'>
A: Web browsers don't understand power point, but there are solutions besides Flash.
You could export it to HTML or a PDF. Or you could also upload to site like slideshare and make use of their players which are built for this problem.
A: I have decided to take a hack route and upload the powerpoint onto YouTube and then just include the youtube video in the iframe.
<iframe height="375" width="600" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/assignedId"></iframe>
I know, it's cheap, but it's also easy.
EDIT
I eventually checked my page as XHTML Strict, which does not support the <iframe> tag. So I used the object tag instead.
<object data="http://www.youtube.com/embed/assignedId">
A: I tried answer posted by Shane, which looks exactly right and how MS used to have PPT viewing online earlier but it didn't worked for me. After doing some research I found out that the link has changed a bit.
So use:
https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/view.aspx instead of https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx
Example:
<iframe src='https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/view.aspx?src=[https://www.your_website/file_name.pptx]' width='100%' height='600px' frameborder='0'>
Note: Link to PPT need to be publicly accessible.
A: Use Microsoft skydrive, upload your power point to this site and use this code
where
http://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=20f065afc1acdb2e&page=view&resid=20F065AFC1ACDB2E!723&parid=20F065AFC1ACDB2E!719 is the URL of the powerpoint file.
You have to replace SD20F065AFC1ACDB2E!723 for your own string of the corresponding URL
A: Just to update this question - as there is a new way to embed Powerpoints in a web page. If you have an account on OneDrive, do the following using Powerpoint Online (accessing Powerpoint via the browser) to embed a Powerpoint:
*
*Click 'File', then 'Share', then 'Embed'
*Click the 'Generate' button to generate HTML code to be embedded
*Copy the 'Embed Code' and paste it in the HTML of a website
A: Upload a PowerPoint document on your Google Drive and then 'Share' it with everyone (make it public):
Sharing your pptx doc
Then, go to File > Publish to the web > hit the publish button.
Go to Embed and copy the embed code and paste it to your web page
Copy embed code
A: Works Best for me.
*
*Goto MS View Office Documents Online Page
*Enter link to PPT file
Note: This link should be publicly Accessible
*Click on Create URL.
*Link to view office documents online will be generated.
*Paste this link to any webpage or as iframe src attribute.
You are all set!! :)
A: If you are using Google slides you could easily publish it on the web and also embed the slide in an iframe.
Go to google slides -> file-> sharing -> embed and copy the code
and then in your HTML file use the below code to show slides in fullscreen mode.
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/journey.css">
</head>
<body>
<!-- show slides in html web page -->
<iframe src="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PAxxxxxCX-xxxxxxxx-_GuZImZqRUxxxxxxxxxx/embed?start=true&loop=false&delayms=3000" frameborder="0" width="1440" height="839" allowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true"></iframe>
</body>
</html>
A: why not use prezi, I just use it in my work, very easy and useful.
A: I was able to do this by saving the PPT as an mp4 (Save As > MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4)) and then using the video tag.
<video controls autoplay preload="none" style="width:1000px;">
<source src="/_dev/power_point/m11983.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<p>Your browser does not support HTML5 Video.</p>

Another beautiful day at Tamieka Smith Photography. Meet baby Emma! She is such a sleeping beauty. She slept virtually the entire portrait session; even when we incorporated Mom, Dad, and big sister.
It was a beautiful warm June Wednesday morning in DC where we gathered outside the National Archives for an Air Force Promotion Ceremony. Although it was warm, there were plenty of smiles in anticipation of the pinning on of the new rank of Major.
Today I received an email stating I was selected as one of the best maternity photographers in Fairfax, Virginia. I am thankful to all the families and moms who have entrusted me with the honor of documenting their timeless memories. I am so blessed to meet and photograph many beautiful expectant mothers.
Anybody alive in 2017 with access to a internet-waffled device knows that it is the ultimate call and duty of their privileged position to "do it for the gram," Instagram that is. Now, "it" could be anything, literally anything. You could be recreating a Michael Jackson move in a parking lot, reciting the Qur'an backwards, body contorting to a poetry podcast, or lifting a fifty-pound object with your eyebrows; any of these events – which have all happened – can be undertaken, so long as you do it for the gram. | {

Keselowski Guides Miller Lite Dodge to Victory
BRISTOL, Tenn. (March 18, 2012) – Brad Keselowski, driver of the Penske Racing No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (NSCS), scored his first win of the 2012 season in the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway (BMS) on Sunday afternoon. Keselowski raced with a dominant car – leading a total of 232 laps – as he scored his second consecutive victory at the "World's Fastest Half-Mile."
Keselowski began the 500-lap event from the fifth position based on his qualifying lap of 15.367 seconds, or 124.865 miles per hour, during the Friday afternoon qualifying session. The Miller Lite Dodge took several laps to come alive and, as a result, Keselowski dropped two spots at the drop of the green flag. When the handling condition on the "Blue Deuce" came around to Keselowski's liking, the Rochester Hills, MI., native began turning some of the fastest laps on the track. Keselowski avoided disaster at lap 24 as two competitors immediately in front of the Miller Lite machine made contact, setting off an incident that collected several contending cars. Keselowski was able to escape with only minor damage to the nose of the car, which was repaired during the caution period. Keselowski restarted the race from the 10th position at lap 47, following a lengthy clean up from the incident.
As the race resumed, Keselowski radioed to crew chief Paul Wolfe that his car had excellent stability on corner entry and great forward drive. His only complaint was that the car handled a touch tight in the center of the corners. Keselowski was able to move up to the middle groove on the track as he set his sights on the front of the field. The second of five caution flags on the day fell at lap 116 with Keselowski running in the seventh position. After bringing his car to the attention of his pit crew for air pressure and track bar adjustments, Keselowski returned to action in fifth place as the Miller Lite team continued their great pit work on the year.
Once again, Keselowski posted some of the fastest lap times on the track as he quickly worked his way into the second position. Once there he began to stalk race leader Brian Vickers like a lion after his prey. Following a great battle with the No. 55 car, Keselowski claimed the top spot at lap 218. The Miller Lite Dodge visited pit lane on lap 255 as green-flag pit stops cycled through.
Following a lap 347 restart, Keselowski began a long, tough fight with the No. 17 car driven by Matt Kenseth. The two drivers raced hard and clean for the lead, giving the fans exactly what they hoped to see at the famed BMS oval. The drivers swapped the top spot several times before Keselowski took control again at lap 391. A late-race caution flag at lap 477 offered Keselowski and Wolfe an opportunity to either stay out to maintain track position, or pit for fresh tires. Wolfe elected to keep his driver on the racing surface as Kenseth followed suit. Keselowski was able to hold off the former Cup Series and current Daytona 500 champion to secure a hard-fought victory.
Penske Racing teammate, AJ Allmendinger, was credited with a 17th-place finish in Sunday's Food City 500.
"This Miller Lite Dodge here (is) a brand new car that Penske Racing built – everybody back in the shop did a phenomenal job," said Keselowski. "The last few races have been really good, and I knew we had a shot at winning one if we ran like we had over the last few weeks. You know Matt (Kenseth) didn't make it easy. He raced me hard and I raced him hard. We rubbed a little bit, but that's good racing. I don't know how anyone can say Bristol racing isn't as good as it's ever been."
Following Sunday's event, Keselowski and the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge team are ranked 13th in the driver point standings and 14th in the owner point rankings.
Keselowski and the No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge team next advance to Auto Club Speedway on Sunday, March 25, for the Auto Club 400. Coverage will be seen live beginning at 2:30 pm EST on FOX. The race will also be heard on the Motor Racing Network and Sirius Satellite Radio Channel 90. | {

This blog is a good place for rants and detailed analysis of specific subjects (but mostly for rants), I always found it a bad place for short textual content or content consisting mostly or exclusively of media.
For instance, if I want to recommend a book here, I feel obligated to describe the book in high detail, talk about what I liked about it, maybe even quote a few paragraphs. However, there are cases where I don't have much interesting to say to fill an article or don't have time to talk about a book in detail.
Similarly, some projects I do will never appear in this blog, because there is no enough stuff for a real article.
The fact that Pelican Design & Development's corporate website is way too outdated, not only because it wasn't changed since 2013, but also because the company simply doesn't exist, pushed me to finally replace it entirely. I should have done it years ago, instead of letting so many persons believe that I'm still a freelancer, but, well, better late than never.
When I started working on the new website, my major issue was to find the content. What do I want to show to people? I was pretty sure two things were essential: a short presentation, explaining who I am and what Pelican Design & Development actually was, and a list of projects that I can extend over time (in my dreams, I would actually be able to index dozens and dozens of projects I worked on). And then, I thought that this could also be an opportunity to include something which is similar to a blog, but for content which is much less textual, and much more media-oriented.
I'm happy to announce that the new version of the website is now online. For now, it has only three "media-centered" articles, but more will arrive progressively, like this blog have seen more and more articles over time. Just like this blog, the website was made responsive to be used comfortably on smartphones and tablets. A print version isn't available yet, but may be released later.
This is just the first step, and new features and content will follow. One interesting thing would be to completely redesign my profile description, since neither the PDF version of my resume, nor the Careers profile are, in my opinion, representative enough of what I did and what I do now. | {

Advocating for sustainable agriculture
The Common Agriculture Policy (CAP) keeps subsidising harmful farming practices and providing only minimal funding to support sustainable farming.

Intensive agriculture is destroying nature
The single, most dramatic cause for the loss of biodiversity, species and natural habitats in Europe is intensive agriculture.
In the past 40 years alone, we have suffered the loss of 57% of our farmland birds.
And public money fuels this destruction. The Common Agricultural Policy, worth almost €60 billion per year (40% of the EU budget); subsidises intensive agriculture indiscriminately.
The majority of CAP spending goes to "income support" for mega-farms: the more farmland they have, the more money they get. A whopping 80% of direct payments goes to only 20% of farmers. It gets worse: one third of direct payments go to only 1.5% of farmers. Much of the rest also funds intensive practices that harm biodiversity, climate, water, air and soils (only 7% goes to protecting the environment). A recent investigation in the New York Times found that there is a direct connection and relationship between where most CAP funds are spent and where most environmental destruction happens.
We are paying for a system which fuels the climate crisis and extinguishes nature and biodiversity rather than enhancing it.
The ecological crisis is actually a serious existential threat to farming: without pollinators, there is no food. Europe's Environment Agency also estimates that under business as usual, climate breakdown will cause droughts that will devastate food production in Europe: by up to 50% in Southern countries such as Spain (EEA, 2019).
The solution: withdraw the CAP, and start anew
In October 2020, a majority of MEPs voted for a disastrous CAP for seven more years. Despite broad calls for a nature-friendly CAP, they voted against science, nature, and sustainable farming. They decided to side with big agri oligarchs over European citizens.
The Parliament's CAP deal is so destructive, it makes the EU Green Deal virtually impossible to achieve. How can we have a real EU Green Deal when one third of the EU's budget is spent on making the biodiversity and climate crisis worse? CAP renders the EU Green Deal an impotent mirage, smoke and mirrors rather than the concrete, urgent action we so desperately need.
The ball is now in the European Commission's court. It has the constitutional right, and the democratic duty, to withdraw the CAP and start anew.
The new CAP that emerges from the previous one's ashes should include the following principles:
#1 Space for nature – Science shows that if at least 10 percent of every farm in Europe was natural habitat – such as hedgerows, flower strips or ponds – then nature could come back. What's more, it has even been shown to improve yields! This should be a basic requirement for receiving CAP subsidies. Find out more with our infographic on the matter.
#2 Money for nature – Until now, the EU and its member states have failed to provide the money that we need to save biodiversity. The Common Agricultural Policy is worth €60 billion. By investing a quarter of that for nature-friendly farming (€15 billion), we can support farmers' incomes and protect nature simultaneously. It's also crucial to stop spending money which destroys nature. Find out more in our infographic.
#3 Transition for nature – Farmers need help to transition out of the intensive agriculture model. The current money for doing nothing, called 'direct payments' do the opposite: maintaining the terribly destructive business as usual. These need to be replaced with funds that deliver on a transition to sustainable agriculture: for instance, conversion to organic farming, agro-ecology, diversification of production and into alternative sources of revenue.
Time is of the essence: The CAP reform, decided this year, will apply for 7 years. Next time around, in 2027, we simply will not have the luxury of reversing 7 more years of nature destruction. Tipping points will have been reached. Ecosystems will have vanished. That's why we so desperately need space for nature, money for nature and a transition for nature, right now.

Open letter: EU Commission President, withdraw the Common Agricultural Policy
Intensive agriculture is fuelling the biodiversity and climate crisis. And European farming has significant worldwide impacts. That's why we are sending an open letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, to call on her to withdraw the destructive Common Agricultural Policy.
The only recovery is a green recovery
As businesses wake from hibernation and the world eases itself into something close to normal, global attention turns to economic recovery – but ignoring nature as part of these plans would be a huge error. Will the EU's response be fit for purpose?
We need money for nature now
The single, most dramatic cause for the loss of biodiversity, species and natural habitats in Europe is intensive agriculture. To reverse this alarming trend, the EU must invest in nature protection. Where should the money come from, you ask? Look at our infographic for the answer.
For real food security, we need nature-friendly farming
Think we need more intensive farming for food security? Think again.
Why we desperately need space for nature on farms
Science isn't negotiable: Environment MEPs break off CAP negotiations with COMAGRI
It's over. The gulf was just too wide. On 10 June, the MEPs from the Environment Committee (COMENVI) broke off negotiations with their counterparts in the Agriculture Committee (COMAGRI) on the upcoming vote on the Common Agricultural Policy.

An extra dose of Christmas cheer
[email protected]
It's the most wonderful time of the year, or so the song goes, but for residents of assisted living centers and care centers it can also be a lonely time.
In order to combat the potential for holiday blues, area facilities charged with caring for the aging population tend to beef up their efforts this time of year, offering more holiday-related activities and outings, with more visitors from a wide range of community groups who pop in with gifts and carols.
"We try to think out of the box," said Trisa Hansen, resident care coordinator for Ridgeview Gardens Assisted Living in St. George.
For example, this year the residents at Ridgeview made ornaments and helped to decorate a tree that was then donated to the Jubilee of Trees. The residents were able to take a field trip to the Jubilee to see their tree.
Last year, Ridgeview residents also put together a memory tree by writing a favorite memory on a Christmas ornament that hung on the tree in the foyer all month. On Christmas Eve they gathered to read through everyone's memories for a special evening.
"We really try to amp it up for Christmas Eve," Hansen said.
Joel Horne, owner of Beehive Homes in Washington County, said he is grateful for the support of the community when it comes to bringing holiday cheer to Beehive Homes residents. For example, Lin's grocery store sponsors an angel tree to provide gifts for each of the residents. In addition students from Dixie State University as well as members of a variety of area churches come to sing Christmas carols and visit with the residents.
"They're not able to get out and see the Christmas spirit around town, so we try to bring it in house," Horne said.
Many of the facilities host a special Christmas dinner prior to the actual holiday wherein residents' families can join them in the facility for a meal and a party.
Brookdale in Cedar City hosts one such party, only they keep the theme in line with an ongoing activity that they host every month.
"We celebrate a different country every month," said Brittani Lunnen, executive director for Brookdale. This month is England, so residents and families will be able to join together for an English-inspired meal and activities associated with traditional English Christmas.
Gena Bixman, activity director for Brookdale, said they also try to feature a variety of Christmas-related crafts throughout the month, such as a snowflake jewelry-making activity and a cooking activity, interspersed with gatherings where the residents can watch holiday movies and exchange white elephant gifts provided by Brookdale.
They will also take a trip to see "A Christmas Story the Musical" in Parowan.
"The residents always love to see young people," Bixman added, encouraging people to come by and visit the residents.
Thanks to support from Orange Peel in St. George, The Meadows residents have a few extra people coming to visit each season, bringing gifts from members of the community who participate in the Santa for Seniors program.
"The idea is to have the residents more involved with the community and the community more involved with The Meadows," said Stacey Maziarz, sales and marketing director for The Meadows.
For some residents, it's simply the additional decorations that make all the difference this time of year.
The other day, one Meadows resident who is usually a little gruff was all grins. When Maziarz asked him why, he said, "I love Christmas trees. I'm like a little kid. I want to get in front of them and clap all day."
This year a few residents of The Meadows will share some of their most cherished Christmas memories via a video on TheSpectrum.com, posting Dec. 22. All the residents will then be invited to a festive gathering to watch the video together with Spectrum Media employees.

Media Release by The Hon Jenny Macklin MP
Cape York Welfare Reform trial reports tabled in Parliament
Joint Media Release with:
Desley Boyle MP, Minister for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships
The Cape York Family Responsibilities Commission Annual Report 2009-10 and its 8thQuarterly Report April-June 2010 have been tabled today in the Queensland Parliament by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships Minister Desley Boyle.
The Family Responsibilities Commission is a key plank of the Cape York Welfare Reform trial, aimed at increasing parental responsibility and restoring social norms in the trial communities of Aurukun, Coen, Hope Vale and Mossman Gorge.
The Annual Report highlights that over the past 12 months, the Commission has held 1542 conferences with community members in the four communities to encourage personal responsibility, including getting children to school and being a good tenant. They also referred 583 people to support services and entered into 216 Family Responsibility Agreements to ensure people take personal responsibility and attend support services.
The Reports show more people are being referred to services and income management, which is placing pressure on services. To tackle this, the Governments are holding monthly workshops with service providers in each community to quickly identify and address service gaps. The Commission has also developed a new case management framework to improve services and reporting. There is still more work to do in this area.
"The Commission is very good at building community partnerships and responding to local issues," Ms Boyle said.
"Importantly regular reporting is identifying issues early and monthly meetings of agencies and service providers are putting solutions in place that are tailored to fit local needs," she said.
"We know there is no silver bullet to closing the gap but developing new and targeted supports and programs through this four-year trial are helping individuals and families make the changes they need to get on and up."
The Federal Minister for Families, Housing, Community Services and Indigenous Affairs, Jenny Macklin, said the Quarterly Report showed that 321 people were on conditional income management at 30 June 2010.
"We are determined to improve parental responsibility, combat welfare dependence and ensure welfare is spent in the best interests of children," Ms Macklin said.
"Commissioners reported that there are increasing numbers of clients requesting conditional income management to ensure bills are paid and children are fed.
"Some clients are asking to be put on conditional income management rather than voluntary income management due to pressures from family."
The Quarterly Report showed a decrease in school attendance, particularly in Aurukun, with some children turning up late for school and being marked as absent on the attendance roll.
As a result, roll calls are being reviewed and school attendance case managers are working with parents to get the children to school on time. The Family Responsibilities Commission has also increased the number of family conferences in Aurukun.
Queensland Corrective Services Minister Neil Roberts said an Ending Family Violence Program was also operating in the four trial communities.
"The program is designed to give people the skills they need to defuse problems and prevent situations escalating into violence," Mr Roberts said.
"The program provides education and self-awareness training to prevent domestic and interpersonal violence, repeat offending and associated triggers and is given to Family Responsibility Commission clients on case plans, probation and parole.
"The program has already assisted 40 people in the trial communities."
The Ministers paid tribute to Family Responsibilities Commissioner David Glasgow and all involved in the trial for their tireless work.
The Cape York Welfare Reform trial is a partnership between the Australian and Queensland Governments, the Cape York Institute for Policy and Leadership and the four communities of Aurukun, Coen, Hope Vale and Mossman Gorge.
The reports are available online at Queensland Government: Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander peoples website.
Personal Stories from Trial Communities
Annika* is a primary school student who was not going to school. Through a Family Responsibilities Commissioner it came to light that she was embarrassed because she was having difficulty reading. The FRC helped by referring Annika to Mult-lit classes and now, with her reading improved, she not only goes to school happily but, unlike in the past, does not like her family to take her away from her studies.
May* is a single mother. There was drinking and violence in the home. Her partner treated her badly in front of her children. She was reported to the FRC for not getting her children to school. Some months have now passed since she was placed on Conditional Income Management and May says that for the first time in her life she is feeling good, there is healthy food in the fridge and her children are going to school.
Albert* is a man in his 50s who has been a drinker most of his life. He came to the attention of the FRC through alcohol. The FRC made sure he had help to deal with his substance abuse. He has not had a drink of alcohol – "not a drop" – for five months, despite social pressure to drink. He now spends his money on food and other essentials. He's even saving up to make over his front yard.

What It's All About…
Letter to the One Percent is exactly what it sounds like: a letter to the richest one percent of American households. It is a call to action, a plea for compassion, and a manifesto for the future. It tells the story of their extraordinary success — and how the other 99 percent of Americans missed out. It explains how this divergence caused household income to stagnate, forced millions of Americans into poverty, and triggered the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. It appeals to the better angels of their nature to bear a higher burden — by paying higher taxes, empowering labor, and cracking down on white-collar crime — in order to reverse the damage done in the past three decades.
No other writer has dared to speak these truths directly to power. Every other mainstream book preaches to the choir. Only Letter to the One Percent is brave enough to challenge the rich to do what the country needs them to do. It is not an attack. It is not class warfare. On the contrary: It is a challenge to end the class war that the One Percent has been winning and the 99 Percent has been losing.
No other political subject is as timely as this one. No other economic trend is as pivotal. From the financial crisis in 2008, to Occupy Wall Street in 2010, to the presidential election in 2012, the divergence between the One Percent and the 99 Percent has been the most talked-about issue in American current events. And yet, no one has synthesized the causes and consequences of it in a succinct, yet comprehensive, book. No one has translated the protests and the politics into the simple pocketbook impact that it has had on the average American household. This is the biggest story of our time, and Letter to the One Percent is the first book to tell it fully, accurately, and unflinchingly.
Reviews for Letter to the One Percent
"In just 85 pages, the brilliant young economist Anthony W. Orlando analyzes the events of the past thirty-five years and thoroughly explores the rise of the One Percent at the expense of the rest of us. It is truly a manifesto for the 99 Percent and should be read by every one of us."
— Reese Schonfeld, founding President and CEO of CNN
"Letter to the One Percent is an excellent primer and refresher course on macroeconomics. It helped me understand why the U.S. is experiencing the current economic state of affairs. It is also a compassionate call to action. At first, one may not agree with the basic thesis, but it makes complete sense. I am now a believer and highly recommend this read."
— Mark Itkin, Co-Head of Worldwide Television at William Morris Endeavor
"Anthony W. Orlando has written a short dossier and critique of America's descent into a very troubled and vulnerable society. He presents it in the original form of a letter chastising the One Percent for these policy failures and urging them to get hold of themselves and opt for decency and long-run survival. But he also provides a small storehouse of ammunition for the 99 Percent to use in their self-defense."
— Edward S. Herman, Professor Emeritus of Finance at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, bestselling co-author of Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media
"Anthony W. Orlando has the unique ability to translate complex economic phenomena into everyday, nuts-and-bolts language. He speaks for a brave new generation with a voice that deserves to be heard."
— Susan M. Wachter, Professor of Real Estate and Finance at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, former Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
"…this well-researched, carefully cited book is a valuable resource for understanding how the country got in such a perilous position and what can be done about it. Using a clear, authoritative writing style,…Orlando…manages to present an impressive number of facts without overwhelming readers. In particular, the statistics he presents are startling, even for those who closely follow the state of the economy."
