Every once in a while, a curious email floating through cyberspace will land unexpectedly in your inbox, like a message in a bottle.
Such an email arrived this week. This one actually contained a message in a bottle—one that had floated through the Atlantic and back in time to the year before I was born.
Joyce sent photos of the bottle (1), the note inside (2) and the postcard (3).
His quick Internet detective work was spot-on: The bottle could indeed be traced back to Dean Bumpus (right), one of the first year-round employees of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. Affectionately known as Bump, his 40-year career at WHOI began in 1937.
From 1939 to 1941, aboard the WHOI research vessel Atlantis, Bump helped conduct what many consider the first comprehensive surveys of the marine life of Georges Bank; biologists still find them valuable today.
During World War II Bump, Allyn Vine (after whom the submersible Alvin is named), and other WHOI scientists worked closely with the U.S. submarine fleet to instruct submariners on how to use the bathythermograph, an instrument designed by WHOI researchers that measured temperature and density gradients in the ocean. Using bathythermographs, submariners could avoid acoustic detection by enemy surface vessels. That’s Bump, below right, leading a class to train Navy submariners. The WHOI group was commended by the U.S. Navy for the many lives it helped to save.
But Bump is perhaps best known for orchestrating a program from 1956 to 1972 to track surface and bottom currents in the western North Atlantic. Back then, not much was known about the ocean’s currents, and research methods to learn more about them hadn’t advanced much since the 19th century. It wasn’t until the 1970s that sophisticated current meters, subsurface moorings, acoustic listening systems, surface drifters tracked via radio signals and satellites, and other technology began to come online to help reveal the hidden fluid dynamics within the vast ocean.
Bump used information from surface drift bottles and yellow seabed drifters shaped like mushrooms (above). More than 300,000 drift bottles with return-to-sender notes (right) were released by ships and planes along the U.S. East Coast at various “Point A’s.” About 10 percent were returned, providing Point B’s. Bump also deployed more than 75,000 seabed drifters, with a 19 percent return rate.
WHOI archivist Dave Sherman tracked down the bottle that Joyce found on Sable Island: No. 21588. It was one of 12 released from the research vessel Albatross III on April 26, 1956, at 8:30 p.m. at 42°18’6″N, 65°30’6″W, not far off Nova Scotia. Three bottles from this batch were recovered later the same year—two in Nova Scotia and one in Eastham on Cape Cod.
Given its sandblasted appearance, perhaps No. 21588 came ashore on Sable Island also in 1956, some 300 miles away from its release point, and remained buried and buffeted by dunes until now.
Sable Island is a crescent-shaped sandbar about 25 miles long and less than a mile wide about 185 miles southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Joyce wrote in a subsequent email. Besides bottles, the island also seems to catch bigger things, such as ships.
Sable Island also makes an ideal hangout for grey seals. Almost every year since 2005, Joyce has assisted on a research project on their population dynamics, going to the island for a month in January when the seals mate and give birth.
“We had been conducting a census of tagged seals on the island and while looking for marked animals, I stopped in a little sand gully by a small pond just in from the beach,” Joyce wrote. “I looked down at some garbage that had collected in this little gully and there were about 4-5 bottles sitting there.” The still-plugged one with the note saying “BREAK THIS BOTTLE” caught his eye and launched the search that led to Bumpus.
Meanwhile, I did some Internet detective work of my own to find Joyce’s address. I just sent him this JFK half-dollar (even if postage costs to Canada now exceed that!). WHOI must keep its word, and that’s a bargain price for a good story. Besides, what goes around should come around. | 2019-04-18T20:18:29 | https://www.whoi.edu/oceanus/feature/bumpus/ |
If you weren’t aware, yesterday was Jaden Smith’s birthday. He turned 15, which is a surprise seeing as how it feels like he should be like 17 by now, as many years as he’s been exposed in the entertainment industry. Anywho, there has been talk for a while that the After Earth star and Kylie Jenner (the youngest sister to Kim Kardashian and crew) have been dating, as they’ve been seen holding hands in public, and hanging out overseas. For his birthday, she called him her “best friend” on Instagram, posting a picture of herself and Smith. And while that was kind of cute in a puppy love way, Kris Jenner decided to outdo her daughter since she doesn’t know how to sit down somewhere, and professed her own form of love for Will and Jada’s son.
Interesting indeed. So how would you caption this very “cozy” picture? | 2019-04-25T09:49:35 | https://madamenoire.com/285366/what-chu-say-boo-caption-this-pic-of-a-very-clingy-kris-jenner-showing-love-to-an-uncomfortable-jaden-smith/ |
Hello everyone!! I meant to post on Monday but it was so cold (7 degrees) and my schedule was cut short. The photo above was taken on Monday and today it’s 53 degrees and the snow is almost gone. We have some strange weather here in New England. Monday was also a very special day at our home. I know it’s on everybody’s calendar I know it’s on your calendar and I’m just telling you old news but it’s my husband’s birthday today. Yes, it was my man’s birthday. Unfortunately had to go to work but we celebrated when he came home. We have a tradition of stretching it out so he will be treated extra special for the week.
I’ve been reading some really cool books lately. One I received for Christmas and really am enjoying them. There will be some reviews coming up very soon I actually have a review of a book for Belinda’s Book Nook, that I just finished at the beginning of this year. I will be posting that one probably later today or tomorrow.
So I told you for Christmas I got my new Cameo 3 for Christmas and I’m so excited to play with it. I set it up this weekend. It has many new features but one I am so thrilled about is that it is Bluetooth ready which is great because I have more than one machine. So I don’t need to worry about where I place it. I will be purchasing a Business license soon so that I can run them both simultaneously. I currently own the Designer Edition software but there will also be more functionality by purchasing the business edition. Lot’s more on that soon.
I have also been brainstorming some new features for this website and will be retiring some old ones for some new fresh content this year. I hope you like the new series.
Happy Birthday Leao! Yah.. we had a foot of snow, playing in it with Rosie on Tuesday, so fluffy I can actually walk thru it. Gone Wednesday!
I saw the pictures of Rosie in the snow. She looked so happy! | 2019-04-21T16:52:46 | http://www.belindascrafts.com/catch-up/ |

Q: I called BellSouth yesterday to question a minor charge on my bill. I have had BellSouth DSL for a couple of years and have been paying $42.95 for it.
The rep noticed that monthly charge and said that I qualify for the lower rate of $32.95. I was happy about it of course, but I probably “qualified” some time ago.
BellSouth could have notified me and a lot of other customers about this savings. Do you know why aren’t they required to do that?
A: Sure, BellSouth could have notified you, but then they would have been making less money. Companies aren’t required to tell you when competition has forced prices to go down. It’s up to you to stay on top of pricing so that you can figure out how to get the best deal.
I find that it’s best to check every year to make sure you’re getting the best deal for your telephone, cell phone, wireless hand-held, and Internet access.
To find out if you qualify for a better deal on phone service, I like to use www.myrateplan.com. | 2019-04-19T00:18:43 | https://www.thinkglink.com/2009/03/20/up-to-consumer-to-find-best-deal/ |
A brotherhood of Korean War veterans lifted the memory of a fallen but not forgotten soldier Saturday.
Lt. Colonel F.W. McAbee of Yarmouth served his country from 1942 to 1961, seeing combat in World War II and the Korean War. On Saturday, the the Cape and Islands chapter of the Korean War Veterans Association added McAbee's name to a memorial located at the rest area between exits 6 and 7 off Route 6.
As an audience of 50 stood listening, Commander Al Makkay spoke of McAbee's service record. During World II, he said, McAbee earned eight medals including a Purple Heart, and 11 more during the Korean War, including two Purple Hearts. "He once led a column of tanks through a mine field," Makkay said with quiet admiration.
McAbee also had to endure three years as a prisoner of war in Korea, from 1950 to 1953. Makkay said McAbee supported his fellow soldiers and was a source of hope for them. "He was the one who kept them alive," he said.
Makkay said McAbee combined his courage and bravery in wartime with solid values at home. "Mac lived for and respected his family," he said.
Bishop Francis X. Roque, also a Korean War veteran, conducted a prayer service honoring past and present members of the armed forces. The bishop finished the prayer service by blessing the memorial site with holy water. | 2019-04-25T22:13:19 | https://www.barnstablepatriot.com/home2/index.php/option=com_content/task=view/id=12491/Itemid=30 |

The Plaça de Sant Felip Neri is a small, shaded square in the Barri Gòtic or Gothic Quarter of Barcelona. The Baroque church from which it takes its name stands at one end, the walls deeply pockmarked.
Tour guides tell the story of how, during the Spanish Civil War, General Franco laid siege to the city of Barcelona. Children from the church school and refugees from Madrid had been sheltering in the church, which was functioning as a makeshift orphanage. On 30 January 1938, the Italian air force - fighting in support of the Nationalist faction in the civil war - dropped two bombs on the square, killing 42 people, most of them children, in the city’s second worst bombing raid of the war.
Subsequently the Franco regime spread a myth that the pockmarks in the stone were from the bullets of an anarchist firing squad who had supposedly executed Catholic priests in the church square. Spain took a long time to reckon with its Fascist past, and even in the late 1990s, this was the story visitors might get told. Only in 2007, Barcelona City Council installed a bronze plaque with a simple inscription, putting the story to rights.
That isn’t the only fabrication in this square, however. The entire concept of the Barri Gòtic is a fiction too, first proposed by mayor Ramon Rucabado and architect Jeroni Martorell in 1911, but based on earlier ideas of “medievalizing enhancements to the Barcelona cityscape” by Lluís Domènech i Montaner in 1879. There was a desire to “give identity” to that part of the city: the 1929 International Exhibition was coming, and they wanted to transform this neighbourhood into a tourist attraction.
As such, “some of what tourists see in the Barri Gòtic is very old - but some of what visitors encounter only looks old, or is a composite of new and old parts," writes Michael A. Palgrave in Constructing Catalan Identity (2018) Dozens of major buildings in this neighbourhood were altered or rebuilt, in a process that continued as late as 1970. Much of the Plaça de Sant Felip Neri, too, is a composite of other gothic buildings, moved from elsewhere in the city to make way for new developments.
These walls you see here are a hologram, the octagonal fountain in the centre of the square only fifty years old. | 2019-04-23T05:52:07 | http://www.jayowens.me/instablog/february-11th-2019 |

On 28 August 1967, J.R.R. Tolkien wrote a letter to Mr S.E.O. Joukes (apparently a native of the Netherlands).
Contents: Mr. Joukes wants to name his daughter Ioreth, but Tolkien writes that it means 'old woman' in Elvish (Tolkien also notes that the name probably does not occur outside The Lord of the Rings). Furthermore, Tolkien writes about the translation of the name Arwen.
Publication: Hobbits in Holland: Leven en werk van JRR Tolkien (1892-1973). An excerpt was also published in The Lord of the Rings: A Reader's Companion (p. 68).
"[Arwen] means in Elvish 'noble maiden', but ... it is also a word in Welsh meaning 'greatly blessed'"

A private retreat of wood, glass, and concrete that glows like a jewelbox on the lake. The owners envisioned a family oasis that could be restful and serene yet open and welcoming, and capable of entertaining large gatherings. They envisioned an environment that blended interior and exterior, seamlessly integrated into its stunning surroundings.
With only 40 days to design and submit for permit, construction and lead-times were expedited and material selection was limited. Exercising restraint to allow true materials to express elegant, simple, and unobstructed beauty was the predominant challenge.
This streamlined and elegant single-family residence features outdoor environments and a large living space that are perfect for entertaining. The envelope allows for dynamic customization: with user-friendly smart technology, the home can easily transition from an open beachfront hangout to a cozy, blacked out theater. The interior and exterior are connected by operable glass hangar doors which frame vistas of the lake, landscaping, beach, and distant architecture. The house’s east/west orientation and south-facing 12 ft. overhangs mitigate excess sun exposure and solar heat gain while maintaining expansive views. Finally, the materials link the landscape and building while creating a calm and comfortable home.
The lake house is open and welcoming, but also uniquely private — a blank canvas customizable to suit any occasion.
The design focused on simplicity and the expression of true materials. Concrete was selected for shear, massing, and visual weight, glass for transparency and operability, and wood for warmth and screening. The streamlined aesthetic of the house was guided by the raw beauty of these base materials and features their innate qualities over anything else. The central motif of board-formed concrete, 10 ft. tall pivot door, near-panoramic windows, and exposed steel beams are all inspired by the natural properties of their materials and will stand the test of time because of it.
The home is designed to be flexible and customizable. The operable hangar doors can enclose the living space or expose it to become part of the outdoors. Discreet, smart-panel-operated roller shades can disappear into the ceiling to frame a symmetrical view of the world-class vista. All the while, fully-integrated systems function out of sight to maintain user comfort.
This project was a truly integrated effort between design team, contractor, and owner. Multiple weekly onsite meetings, an unrelenting and rigorous eye for detail, ordering materials before the design was complete, and a constant focus on purity and simplicity guided the design and construction process. Tight communication and deep trust allowed the team to think outside the box and finish the home from day one of design to completion in less than a year. | 2019-04-19T14:20:22 | http://www.cushingterrell.com/portfolio/thompson-lake-house/ |

Do you want your tax dollars to go to the caravan of 7,000 ?
I don’t. Let me tell you where I want my tax dollars to go. There is a delightful Hawaiian girl who works full time, left college to raise her siblings and her 2-year-old son, gives back to the community by working to keep the Hawaiian traditions alive. She applied for assistance for child care. Applied twice and turned down twice. Needless to say, we don’t have the money because we are going to give it to people forcing themselves into our country.
Now for transparency, I am not Hawaiian but Irish Catholic. I would be proud to be Hawaiian, though. I am not a raging conservative. In fact, I am a Dem now. My Irish background taught that you take care of your own first. If we have extra tax dollars, put it into our schools. Create safe havens for abused women to go with their children and of course their dogs. Give it to the Humane Society. So many good causes can use our tax dollar. | 2019-04-22T22:31:39 | http://www.mauinews.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/2018/11/use-tax-dollars-to-take-care-of-our-citizens-first/ |

For other uses, see Bant (disambiguation).
Bant is one of the so-called green villages (Dutch: groendorpen) in the Dutch province of Flevoland. It is a part of the municipality of Noordoostpolder, and lies about 7 km north of Emmeloord.
The name Bant is derived from the estates of Bant or Bantega, which at one point existed in what is now the municipality of Lemsterland, and extended into the area that is now the Noordoostpolder.
After World War II, before the founding of Bant, the site was used as a prisoner camp for Nazi-collaborators under the name Kamp Westvaart. The camp was accommodated with watchtowers and armed guards. Several prominent collaborators served sentences in the camp. Jan Gunnink, former head of the KP-Meppel, a prominent resistance movement during the war, served as camp commander.
The camp was subject of a social experiment, in which prisoners were offered a contract in which they declared they would not resist and fight in exchange for free movement within the camp. Every prisoner signed the contract. The experiment was later cancelled, but because every prisoner kept to their promises, they were set free. Remaining sentences were instead served out as regular labourer.
Modern Bant was designed by the board of the Wieringermmer, one of whom's jobs was to design and oversee the construction of ten settlements in the Noordoostpolder around the town of Emmeloord. Bant was thus founded in 1951 to the north of Emmeloord, which was founded in 1943, in land reclaimed from the IJsselmeer.
In 1998, part of the children's' movie The Flying Liftboy, known in Dutch as Abeltje was shot in the town. The town's formerly reformed church, not the Bantsiliek, served as an important piece of decor behind the department store in which the protagonist worked as an elevator boy. In an important scene, the elevator is sent flying out of the elevator shaft, and the church features prominently. The church building has since been sold to a private owner.
Bant celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2011.
In 1955, a Catholic church was built in Bant, and was given the name Bantsiliek, a portmanteau of Bant and basiliek, the Dutch word for basilica. The church was dedicated to Ludger. At first the church was part of to the Diocese of Utrecht, but was later transferred to the Diocese of Groningen. As the population growth in Bant fell behind expectations, the parish was merged with the parishes in Creil, decicated to Nicholas, and Rutten, dedicated to Servatius in 1991. The new parish was named "The Good Shepherd" (Dutch: De Goede Herder). In 2001 the churches in Bant and Creil were shut down due to falling numbers of churchgoers. Their inventories were largely incorporated in the church in Rutten.
After 2001, the church building was re-purposed as the new location of the municipal initiative Samen op Weg, which aimed to unite the various Dutch protestant churches and house them together in the same church building. The other church buildings were sold and the main hall of the Bantsiliek was divided in two, a church hall and a reception area. The chapel dedicated to Maria remained as a place of silence. Large parts of the church have been modified and the church was ready for use on Saturday November 27, 2004, and was officially commissioned on Sunday January 23, 2005.
In 2009, the church, designed by Antonius Vosman Junior, took part in the finals round of "The Most Beautiful Church of the Netherlands" (Dutch: De Mooiste Kerk van Nederland) of the NCRV radio-programme Plaza. The church received the most votes, but the jury elected the Sint-Willibrordusbasiliek in Hulst as winner instead.
Bant is also home to two elementary schools, a sporting club, a holiday park, a small industrial area, a driving school and a supermarket, as well as several bars and restaurants. Every five year, Bant is the scene of a major town feast.
Bant lays on the crossroads of the provincial roads N715 and N718, the latter of which ends in Bant and extends north beyond Bant as the Lemsterweg. The N715 leads to Creil in the west, and an on-ramp onto the nearby A6 motorway, beyond which it connects to Kuinre via the N351, and Luttelgeest. The N718 due south runs parallel to the A6 and leads to Emmeloord. Taking the Lemsterweg north leads to Lemmer, and also provides access to Rutten.
Bant has no railway station. The nearest stations are Kampen railway station in Kampen, Steenwijk railway station in Steenwijk and Lelystad Centrum railway station in Lelystad.

"Our disciplined execution in 2018 resulted in record fiscal year revenue, the achievement of our 2018 gross margin improvement plans that we committed to at our 2017 Analyst Day event, and EPS that grew significantly faster than revenue demonstrating the powerful leverage in our business model," said Hassane El-Khoury, Cypress' president and chief executive officer. "While the current demand environment remains somewhat uncertain, we are focused on what we can control and we will continue disciplined investments that will drive many of today's megatrends in the automotive, industrial and IoT markets."

Measures" tables ("Non-GAAP Results" tables) included below.
+ Cypress addressed the growing need for IoT edge processing with the addition of a new microcontroller (MCU) product to its ultra-low-power and secure PSoC(R) 6 family. The new PSoC 6 MCU includes expanded embedded memory to support compute-intensive algorithms, connectivity stacks and data logging.
+ Cypress expanded its industry-leading wireless connectivity portfolio for automotive infotainment with a trio of new products, including its first Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth(R) combo solution. Wi-Fi 6 enables gigabit-level throughput and improves reliability for content streaming to multiple devices at once. The Wi-Fi 6 combo solution allows multiple users to connect and seamlessly stream unique content to as many as 10 mobile devices simultaneously via Cypress' Real Simultaneous Dual Band (RSDB) architecture. Cypress also introduced two Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Bluetooth combo solutions, empowering car makers and automotive system suppliers with a scalable platform solution to address a wide range of vehicles with a uniform software architecture that minimizes development and system integration costs.
+ Cypress strengthened its IoT portfolio with the launch of our Cirrent software and cloud services platform for consumer Wi-Fi(R) products, which allows IoT products to easily connect to a customer's home network and stay connected, providing an outstanding user experience and significant return on investment to OEMs by reducing support costs and product returns. Cirrent's ZipKey(R) Wi-Fi Onboarding and IoT Network Intelligence software lets users set up products without typing in passwords and ensures products stay connected even when network names and passwords are changed.
+ Cypress introduced an automotive-qualified USB-C controller with USB Power Delivery (PD) that enables fast charging of portable electronics in vehicles. The Automotive EZ-PD(TM) CCG3PA controller delivers a plug-and-play user experience to automotive charging ports by providing support for current and legacy charging standards. As the standards continue to evolve, compliance and interoperability pose an ongoing challenge, but the programmable controller overcomes these issues with its firmware upgradeability. Additionally, the controller offers a high level of integration that minimizes bill-of-material cost and simplifies designs, replacing multiple discrete components.
+ Cypress introduced the Excelon(TM) LP Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (F-RAM(TM)), the industry's most energy-efficient nonvolatile RAM, which delivers instant-write capabilities with virtually unlimited endurance. This solution is ideal for the latest-generation of portable medical and wearable devices and other IoT applications that demand nonvolatile memories to continuously log an increasing amount of user and sensor data while using as little power as possible. The Excelon LP F-RAM enables these applications to perform mission-critical data logging requirements while maximizing battery life.
+ Cypress paid a cash dividend of $39.7 million, or $0.11 per share, to holders of record of the Company's common stock as of the close of business on December 27, 2018. The dividend was equivalent to a 3.5% annualized yield as of December 28, 2018. This dividend was paid on January 17, 2019.
Products Division ("MPD") includes RAM, Flash and AgigA Tech products.
which is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2019.
The timing and amount of certain material items, including restructuring charges, asset impairments, changes in value of deferred compensation assets and liabilities, impact of stock-based compensation from modification of equity awards, and the tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments, which are needed to estimate forward-looking GAAP financial measures, are either inherently unpredictable or outside the control of the Company, and may have a significant impact on the Company's financial results.
Cypress will host its quarterly conference call on January 31, 2019 at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Standard Time to discuss its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2018 results and outlook for the first quarter of 2019.
All interested parties may dial 517-308-9119 and provide the passcode "Cypress" to listen to the call. The event will be broadcast over the Internet and may be accessed through Cypress' website at www.cypress.com/investors. The archived presentation will be available for two weeks immediately following the event.

There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures, including those discussed below. Moreover, the Company's non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently than the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures supplement and should be viewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures.
with integration activities; and legal and accounting costs.
Stock-based compensation expense: Stock-based compensation expense relates primarily to employee stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and the employee stock purchase plan. Stock-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense that is affected by changes in market factors including the price of Cypress' common shares, which are not within the control of management. In addition, the valuation of stock-based compensation is subjective, and the expense recognized by Cypress may be significantly different than the expense recognized by other companies for similar equity awards, which makes it difficult to assess Cypress' results compared to its competitors. Accordingly, management excludes this item from its internal operating forecasts and models. However, a limitation of non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation expense is that they do not reflect the full costs of compensating employees.

When my Symbols are done in sketch, I can build a mockup very quickly. Have you considered building a plugin for Sketch?
I meet with the InVisionApp sales team few months ago. Their phylosophie is to work and augment the current tools (Sketch 3...) instead of replacing them. I thought that it was a good approach.
I'd be worried that the designers will be scared by a command line based tool. This will be hard to convince people to move away from Sketch 3.
Thanks for trying to improve the designer tools, it's much needed.
This is so desperately needed it isn't even funny. Is there somewhere I can sign up for updates on your progress, try out alpha builds, etc?
If you're not on twitter and want to contact; I'll post a different way to do that in a tweet on the same account, and in this topic later.
What does everyone currently use for wireframing? I find it easiest to just draw it out with a pen and paper.
1) Initial sketches in pen & paper.
2) Move into Sketch.app for refinement.
3) Move into Invision for clickthrough interactivity.
4) Move into Principle for animations & transitions.
5) Throughout, use Craft.io to keep track of personas, user stories, etc.
6) Realize that, despite my best efforts, documentation is scattered everywhere. Things are out of sync. UI is in eighteen different states of visual done-ness, and nobody knows who made what decision when.
2) Something exactly like this "True UX" tool for rapidly stringing together layouts and flows in a testable, iterative, documentable way.
3) Drink heavily. Wait. Maybe this is a personal problem.
Have you used craft sync? There’s another tool to sync but forgot the name.
Looks pretty cool. One thing though... Windows?..
It's a prototype I'm making in Python. You can run it on a Mac. For a web-app prototype I can re-use much of the code.
First I want to gather feedback and get a feel for the potential. If there is enough potential, I'd like to get one or more developers involved so we can build a robust product for the platforms (desktop, mobile, web) that make sense for the product. | 2019-04-20T17:05:09 | https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15346366 |
“Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenants and went to another country.When the harvest time had come, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his produce. But the tenants seized his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. Again he sent other slaves, more than the first; and they treated them in the same way. Finally he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.” So they seized him, threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?” They said to him, “He will put those wretches to a miserable death, and lease the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the produce at the harvest time.” Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the scriptures: ‘The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord’s doing, and it is amazing in our eyes’? Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that produces the fruits of the kingdom.The one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.” When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking about them. They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a prophet.
There is something in this encounter between the Chief Priests, the Pharisees and Jesus which reflects just how the truth which Jesus had proclaimed to them in the metaphor of the rebellious tenants, made them very angry.
Matthew however, throws out another important detail that hints at the cause of their anger, namely their fear.
The Priests and Pharisees want to destroy Jesus, but he has the adulation of the people who think he is a prophet.
So the Priests and Pharisees, who are threatened by Jesus, are also afraid of the crowds. The fear is palpable, don’t you think?
I know what it is to get angry. I can literally seethe and seize up with rage! If I consider my anger rationally though, most times I am not angry for the reason I think.
I am enraged because a subconscious fear or insecurity is surfacing and my anger is a way to avoid dealing with my fear.
I have spent my life in South Africa, dealing with racism. By the way, not only white people can be racist. But having lived with racism in this milieux I recognise that the angry violence of racism is fuelled by the fear of those distinctively different from ourselves.
Witness if you will the Islamophobia sweeping the church at present and you will see what fear can do.
So let’s not deny our anger for politeness sake. But let us be clear from whence our anger is fuelled. | 2019-04-19T02:47:26 | https://thelisteninghermit.com/2014/10/03/the-freeing-truth-about-anger-mt-2133-46/ |
Fort McMurray, Alberta: On June 23rd 2018, Wood Buffalo RCMP started using the Alberta First Responders Radio Communications System (AFRRCS), a two-way encrypted radio network for first responders across the province. This radio system is completely secure and communications can not be captured via use of radio scanners.
AFRRCS offers integrated communication for all officers within the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo (RMWB). Police officers of Wood Buffalo RCMP are now sending and receiving clear communication without distortion. Communications are all on a single channel, which increases officer awareness and information sharing.
AFRRCS system is contributing to officer safety and enhances police response. | 2019-04-23T18:54:18 | http://www.woodbuffalorcmp.ca/wood-buffalo-rcmp-is-using-a-two-way-encrypted-radio-network/ |
We love our customer feedback. Thanks to our valued clients who have taken the time to let Mortgage Choice in North Lakes and Sandgate how great our service is.
Service was great beginning to end from James and his team - super thankful we found Mortgage choice NorthLakes. will definitely use them again as well as recommend them highly to friends and family.
James and Bec, both Gav and I are so profoundly grateful for all your help. No question was ever too hard and you were always available when ever we needed your opinion or answers to our questions. Your service is exceptional and it has been an absolute pleasure to have you as our broker once again. Thank you!
10 out of 10.....great communication - the entire team Bec, Tammy and James were fantastic. we especially loved the excitement generated when we reached our goal and bought our house. The process initially felt very overwhelming but James put our anxiety to rest and we put our faith in him.
For our 3rd home loan we initially applied directly through ANZ bank for finance, after three weeks of lies, chaos and no action our application was declined. Luckily we found James who had pre-approval finalized within 48 hours, even through ANZ! I wouldn't go anywhere else.
James literally changed our lives, he made possible a dream that for so long we didn't believe was achievable.
He was professional, genuine, calming and showed empathy to our needs. He understood how important this was to us and shared our happiness. Can't thank him enough and will continue to recommend him to all.
James was very professional and efficient with helping us with our loan reconsolidation, he took all the stress out of the process and kept us informed through out. We could not recommended highly enough.
James Florance has helped Paula & I on several occasions from Buying our first home, car loans, refinancing our mortgage to a more flexible option and now building our pool.. He is friendly and very professional in his approach He simply makes the stress of Finance hassle free. A true asset to the Mortgage choice team.
James and Tammy had helped us through the process of getting our first home built. They had provided prompt and professional service. James had presented us with the best option available and offered the most practical advise that suited our needs. The interface between builder and bank was well facilitated and communicated by Tammy. Updates were regularly provided to us. Would highly recommend TEAM Mortgage Choice North Lakes.
Mike and I really appreciate all of your assistance with settling the 3 property purchases we undertook at the same time and made it so much easier especially due to the complication's with mortgaging through our super fund. You made a stressful few months much easier to deal with and were always easy to contact with any questions we had.
Very professional James and Tammy. We had a very short time frame to procure the loan and when we were stressing as to whether it would come through on time you were both very calming and positive, James I have used you several times before and you always deliver on what you say and are very honest and straightforward, Once again I have to say Thank you for making the purchase of the unit a breeze.
I am a repeat customer & can't praise James & his Team highly enough and I certainly wouldn't go anywhere else. James takes the time to understand your goals, explains concepts so they are easily understood & communicates at every step of the finance process. Without their expert knowledge & guidance I could not have switched lenders, purchased a new vehicle & a second investment property. So I put it to everyone out there who feel they are just a number in their bank's system, to go to Mortgage Choice @ North Lakes for all your financing needs - you have nothing to lose & a lot to gain. Thanks again James, Tina & Tammy for all your help.
It was a pleasure to discuss in 'plain english' such an important part of our lives - the home loan. I asked a lot of questions which I'm sure was annoying but I was made to feel that it was totally fine. Hassle Free!
Thanks James for everything you have done, you have made our dreams of owing an investment property come true! I would never go into a bank to apply for a loan James makes everything so easy!!!!
Excellent service from the first phone call. Everything you had control of happened quicker than I expected. I now have loans with more flexibility than I expected & ticked all my requirements. The perseverance by Tammy with issues created by my old bank not paying attention to detail ensured everything progressed a lot quicker than I could have ever achieved. You have done a great job. Thank you.
I've used mortgage brokers previously and found them to be diligent and effective in sorting through the various products and corresponding with the banks. James at Mortgage Choice North Lakes is one step ahead of the rest. We found him not only responsive and knowledgeable about the various products, but also accessible at all times and willing to go the extra mile for complex arrangements. Thank you for your efforts and we will be referring to you in the future.
From the first meet and greet and pre-approval through to settlement, the service we have received has been second to none. We would encourage and recommend any first home buyer to enlist the services you offer. Our requirements were met, great financial advice was provided and we received thorough communication along the way. Thank you for your patience, your honesty and guidance which resulted in us achieving our dream of home ownership.
Your service was fantastic. The whole process was made so much easier by having you as our Mortgage Broker. Your very approachable, and you clearly explain everything in easy to understand terms. We would certainly come back to you and highly recommend you to others.
Hi James, your professionalism in our first telephone conversation and advice given over the phone at that point in time provided us with a high level of confidence and comfort to continue the conversation and action with yourself 6 months later. Your assistance with both the home mortgage and car finance enabled us to review our financial situation and set ourselves up for meeting our goals in the future. We look forward to a long association with yourself and your team. Thanks again!
We found James & Tam to be the most efficient & helpful professionals in relation to our financial requirements that we have ever dealt with & we certainly had faith after our initial visit (& then emails) that all would go smoothly. We have already been recommending you to our friends & family. Thank you for such a smooth process in the changes you helped us make with our home loan.
James - Thank you, and thanks to Tammy. Both of you are a great team. You are beyond patient, displayed by taking many phone calls and helping us find the finance to secure our latest property. We will not use anybody else. James even though the lending was harder because of the changes to the banking requirements and the fact that we had only just finished building a investment property, you found a lender for us so that we were able to by our home to live in. A lender that suited our requirements right now. We seem to test you regularly. While others tell scary stories of settlement dates going wrong, we tell our story of settlement date being stress free. You proved your loyalty and professionalism again when the other side tried to find out who our finance was being done by. You told him that what he was asking you was against policy, giving no information showing again your ability to handle any situation. We wouldn't use anybody else and we appreciate the way you have looked after us over the years. We will be calling on you again; we hope in the not so distant future. As the market changes, so do you, being up to date on all the latest information. You truly are a working Google James for home loans. We will always be a loyal customer and recommend your service to anybody.
James Florance's service is extremely professional, courteous and prompt. He always returns calls in a timely fashion and was in regular contact via email. The home loan offered was a great flexible product and the loan application process was straight-forward and efficient. Thanks James!
We were very happy with James Florance from Mortgage Choice North Lakes. His service was exceptional. He was easy to get in touch with and always returned calls very promptly. Between James and Tammy we were always kept up to date with everything and they were also lovely to deal with not to mention the great mortgage products they offer. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend James at Mortgage Choice.
James & Tammy provided exceptional service throughout the whole engagement and made the financial aspect a very smooth process in what is normally a very stressful time, I would highly recommend James to anyone I know, confident in the fact that they will receive the same high level of service.
I couldn't be more happy and impressed with the service I received from both James and Tammy. From start to finish they were very informative and both went out of their way the entire journey. Knowing you are in good hands during a very stressful time is very comforting. James's local knowledge of the property market was also a big bonus for me. I have already recommended James to both family and friends and will continue to spread the word. Thank you for everything.
I would be pleased to recommend James and his team from Mortgage Choice North Lakes to anyone considering their first home through to experienced real estate investors. James explained important processes in clear, simple language, took interest in my objectives and worked hard to ensure I received the product that was right for my situation. His support team went above and beyond in their role, which was certainly much appreciated and ensured a smooth, stress-free real estate experience.
Hi James and Tammy, thank you for all your help and advice in the process of choosing a mortgage for our first home. We really appreciated the great communication throughout and would definitely recommend your services to anyone. | 2019-04-25T08:21:53 | https://www.mortgagechoice.com.au/james.florance/testimonials/ |
How Would Local Schools Look If They Added Football?
Every once in awhile, our minds start to wonder. Sometimes that’s great! Other times, not so much. But we wanted to know…what would it look like if the schools in our area, that don’t already have football, added it? We’ve created helmets for all the local schools that don’t currently have a team, and we want to know which ones are your favorites! What we came up with is below! Let us know which helmet you think is the best. We’ll discuss the results on Koza in the Morning later this week!

The Turtle Bay Caribbean chain wants to open in Pepper Street, Chester.
A new Caribbean restaurant wants to open in Chester city centre .
Turtle Bay aims to locate within Grosvenor Shopping Centre in Pepper Street, opposite the first phase of Chester Dining Quarter.
With a focus on Caribbean cuisine and cocktails, the chain describes itself as ‘All about capturing the heart and soul of The Caribbean. Relax with friends, share food and conversation’.
Mouth-watering dishes include jerk chicken, Guyanese curry duck and halloumi and mushroom burger, with a Little Turtles menu for children.
Lip-smacking rum-based cocktails are on offer such as Passion Rum Punch, Jamaican Mule and Bahama Mama.
This is where the new Turtle Bay restaurant would be based.
The Turtle Bay name surfaced after the company lodged a planning application to change the previously agreed opening hours at the empty unit.
This would mean it could open until 1.30am on Fridays and Saturdays, an hour later than already approved.
A supporting document states: “At the time of the previous application, there was no end user. The current applicants, Turtle Bay, are currently in legal discussion for the lease of this unit. Turtle Bay are a high quality restaurant operator with 42 existing restaurants.
An offering from the Turtle Bay menu.
Turtle Bay says the new opening hours would be in line with those agreed for its other restaurants ‘located in similar mixed use areas’.
The Bristol-based Turtle Bay chain was launched in 2011 by Ajith Jayawickrema who previously founded Las Iguanas, which has a restaurant in phase one of the Chester Dining Quarter on the other side of the road.
Chimichanga in Pepper Street, Chester, has now closed.
Turtle Bay Chester would be in unit five, within what had originally been envisaged as the second phase of the dining quarter. Those ambitions were reined in due to a ‘challenging trading environment’ which last week saw the closure of Chimichanga in a radical restructure at Prezzo restaurants.
The space that would have been occupied by the second phase of the dining quarter will now be reconfigured. Two ground floor units will merge to create a larger space for Turtle Bay.
And shopping centre owners HIG Chester Property Sarl aim to transform the remainder of the vacant retail and office space into a 94-bed hotel, with bar and restaurant, to be operated by Premier Inn. A planning application has been submitted with a decision awaited. | 2019-04-23T05:02:54 | https://www.cheshire-live.co.uk/news/chester-cheshire-news/caribbean-restaurant-hoping-open-chester-14487203 |

Surprisingly, many of the problems associated with sobriety do not stem directly from drugs and alcohol. Instead, they are associated with physical and psychosocial changes that occur after the chemicals have left our bodies.
These alterations in our nervous systems, physical condition, and psychosocial adjustments are known as post acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS).
Post acute withdrawal results from: (1) the combination of damage to our bodies and nervous systems as a result of using addictive chemicals, and (2) from the psychosocial stresses of coping with lives without alcohol and drugs. PAWS is the cause of most relapse.
Recovery causes a great deal of stress. Many addicts and alcoholics never learn to manage stress without alcohol or drug use, or do so only after many attempts at sobriety.
All addicts and alcoholics suffer from damage to our bodies and nervous systems resulting from drug/alcohol use, accidents and malnutrition. We may also suffer from various chronic diseases, such as diabetes and hepatitis. We usually bring to early recovery a broad array of other problems. As one alcoholic put it, When I got sober, things didn't get any easier, but they got real clear!
Our ability to deal with these problems depends on our willingness to take care of ourselves, manage our stress, and maintain a healthy physical, emotional and spiritual lifestyle.
The symptoms of PAWS reach a peak from three to six months after we get clean. Recovery from damage to our nervous systems usually requires from six months to two years with a healthy program of recovery. Any use of drugs or alcohol, even in small quantities or for a short time, will effectively eliminate any gains. | 2019-04-22T10:46:49 | https://www.hawaiivet2vet.com/post_acute_withdrawal_syndrome_paws |

I’ve received several inquiries about how to handle specific situations involving someone with a dementia illness, so this column is all about helpful strategies/tips for living with a loved one who has some form of dementia/Alzheimer’s. How we communicate is vastly different from what we are used to doing and no two cases are exactly the same. Being reasonable, rational and logical doesn’t work with these illnesses. A long explanation in any situation will just confuse and upset your loved one; using simple sentences about what is happening works best. The brain no longer has the ability to respond to logical arguments/statements and arguing will only cause distress for both of you. I’ve assembled helpful information from several sources and come up with this list of suggestions to guide you through some common situations.
•Therapeutic lying (fiblets) can reduce stress and anxiety. People tend to be meticulously honest about most everything pertaining to caring for a loved one. This approach when used with someone who has dementia will lead to distress for both of you.
•Someone with dementia doesn’t need to be grounded in reality. Reminding someone of important events such as the passing of loved ones will only cause pain so try redirecting the conversation. Instead try asking about the person he/she asked about.
•Making agreements with your loved one won’t work. In the early stages of dementia, leaving reminder notes, etc. can sometimes help but as the disease progresses you will need to change your methods.
•Limit the number of choices your loved one has to make. If your loved one can’t decide what to wear, lessen the choices to one or two outfits and hang them on the closet door or lay them on the dresser. Instead of asking someone if they’re hungry or ready for dinner, simply tell them when dinner is ready and walk with them to the table.
•Often it’s easier/quicker for us to do something for a loved one that will allow them to do it themselves and there are pros and cons to this.
I hope you’ll find these few scenarios helpful as you navigate these always changing times in your role of caregiving. There are numerous other situations you will find yourself working through and resources available to help you through them. If you’re someone who uses the internet, there are many sites that offer information and support; listed below are a couple of sites I found to be very informative: www.helpguide.org or www.alz.org/vermont. You can also get support from your physician, Central Vermont Council on Aging (CVCOA) and Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice (CVHH&H).

Browsing through my favourite magazine (Bon Appetit of course!) I came across this simple and delicious looking recipe for Citrus Marinated Chicken. Taking some chicken out of the fridge, I went about assembling the marinade when it took a bit of a left turn! Cutting into what I thought was an orange, but was actually a small, very orange-esque grapefruit, I had to make a little change of plans! Undeterred, I went with it, using grapefruit as my main citrus and making a few changes here and there to the recipe.
In the end, it all worked out and I had myself some tasty chicken. It had some great teriyaki flavour with hints of citrus and a really nice caramelization from the sugars in the marinade. Served with some rice and fresh veggies, it made an easy and delicious meal!
Asian inspired grilled chicken with hints of citrus!
Combine all of the ingredients into a Ziploc bag, mixing around chicken, and allow to marinate for at least an hour.
Once chicken has finished marinating, allow to sit at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes.
Preheat your barbecue to medium heat for about 10-15 minutes.
Once your grill has preheated, cook your chicken for about 15-20 minutes (or until its internal temperature reaches 165F).
Rotate chicken approximately every five minutes, allowing it to cook evenly on all sides and give you delicious skin!
Halfway through the cooking process, brush the leftover marinade on the chicken whenever you rotate it.
Once chicken has finished cooking, remove from heat and allow it to rest for 10-15 minutes.
Serve with rice and a sprinkle of chopped green onion!
My family makes something very similar, you have my stomach growling! | 2019-04-26T15:04:44 | https://bsinthekitchen.com/citrus-marinated-chicken/ |

Looks like I’m posting about once a month these days. Not exactly the stellar writing performance I was going for. At least I’m still going.
attended a party without knowing anyone.
accepted an invitation to spend Christmas with an acquaintance and her friends/family (again, without knowing anyone).
went to church – three times, including Christmas Eve.
signed up for new yoga class – again canceled (trying again tomorrow).
committed to a second art gathering in Charlottesville, but backed out because it was in the single-digits (I’m committed, not stupid).
risked losing friends by being open and honest so I can move on with my life. Results still pending.
committed to going out tonight to an event occurring past 8pm!!!!
committed myself to go to a movie this weekend. In an actual theater, not Netflix.
I may have forgotten an thing or two, but I think this was a pretty good start. I’m paying close attention to happenings around town and will continue to attempt one new thing a week. It’s a small town, but surely there’s enough going on to help get me through the winter. | 2019-04-22T14:59:19 | https://thistleandivy.blog/2017/01/13/resolve/ |

Before we discuss the impact of paying interest on reserves, it might be beneficial to talk about how this impacts the market for reserves using a straightforward supply and demand analysis, as Ireland does. Consider a simple supply and demand graph with the interest rate on the vertical axis and the quantity of reserves on the horizontal axis. Typically, in the market for reserves, the demand for reserves is a standard downward sloping demand curve. This is because a higher federal funds rate means that there is a higher opportunity cost of holding reserves rather than lending them to banks. If the Federal Reserve sets a target for the federal funds rate, the supply curve is horizontal at that interest rate. Where the supply curve intersects the demand curve is where one gets the unique quantity of reserves necessary to clear the market. One can therefore think of the Fed as providing the quantity of reserves necessary to maintain its interest rate target.
Now let’s suppose that the Fed starts paying interest on reserves. In this case, the supply curve remains the same (horizontal at the federal funds rate), but the demand curve changes. In particular, with demand curve for reserves is now downward-sloping for all rates above the interest rate on reserves. At the interest rate on reserves, the demand curve is horizontal. Why? Suppose that the federal funds rate is above the interest rate on reserves. In this case, an increase in the federal funds rate, holding the interest rate on reserves constant, causes a reduction in the demand for reserves. In other words, when the federal funds rate is above the interest rate on reserves, the opportunity cost of holding reserves is now the spread between the federal funds rate and the interest rate paid on reserves.
So why do people think that money doesn’t matter in this context? They think that money doesn’t matter because when the federal funds rate target is equal to the interest rate on reserves, the supply curve is horizontal at the same interest rate at which the demand curve is horizontal. This implies that there is a continuum of values for reserves that can be an equilibrium.
[The preceding analysis ignores] the effects that changes in output, including those brought about in the short run by monetary policy actions themselves, may have on the demand for reserves. And to the extent that changes in the interest rate paid on reserves get passed along to consumers through changes in retail deposit rates, and to the extent that those changes in deposit rates then set off portfolio rebalancing by households, additional effects that feed back into banks’ demand for reserves get ignored as well. One cannot tell from these graphs whether changes in the federal funds rate, holding the interest rate on reserves fixed either at zero or some positive rate, have different effects on output and inflation than changes in the federal funds rate that occur when the interest rate on reserves is moved in lockstep to maintain a constant spread between the two; if that spread between the federal funds rate and the interest rate on reserves acts as a tax on banking activity, those differences may be important too.
The point of developing a corresponding macroeconomic model is to fundamentally assess whether or not these hypothesized effects are of any significance. To do so, Ireland extends a New Keynesian model to have a banking system and a shopping time specification to motivate the use of a medium of exchange. Since this is a large scale model and this is a blog post, I will spare further details of the model and refer interested readers to the paper. However, I would like to discuss what Ireland finds as it relates to the discussion among econobloggers (there are more results that are of interest as well).
First, and perhaps most importantly for the blogosphere discussion, Ireland’s model demonstrates that even if they pay interest on reserves, the Fed still has to use open market operations to adjust the supply of bank reserves in order to change the price level. In other words, not only does the monetary base remain important, it is still necessary to pin down the price level. Second, there are important implications for how the Fed conducts open market operations. Specifically, in a world without interest on reserves, when the Fed raises its target for the federal funds rate it correspondingly reduces the supply of reserves. However, in Ireland’s model, the impulse response function for reserves following a change in monetary policy is just the opposite. In his model the central bank would have to increase bank reserves in response to a tightening of monetary policy as a result of an increase in the demand for reserves from banks, which in turn are caused by the portfolio reallocations of households. This is because a contractionary monetary policy causes a reduction in the user cost of deposits, which raises the demand for deposits and thereby the demand for reserves.
As noted above, there are other results of interest and I would encourage anyone who wants to have a serious discussion about interest on reserves to read the paper in its entirety. Nevertheless, just to summarize, the importance of Ireland’s paper is to present an explicit macroeconomic model that allows us to talk about the short-run and long-run behavior of the monetary base when the Fed pays interest on reserves. The implications of his model is that the monetary base is important in both the long- and short-run. In the short run, the Fed has to adjust the supply of bank reserves in accordance with their desired interest rate target. This response differs depending on whether interest is paid on reserves, but in either case, this behavior is necessary. In addition, and most importantly, the nominal stock of reserves is essential for influencing the price level in the long run. In other words, the monetary base is not irrelevant.
Yesterday I argued that the platinum coin is a bad idea. In doing so I received a substantial amount of pushback. Some have argued that while the platinum coin might be a dumb idea, it is preferable to being held hostage by recalcitrant Republicans. Others argued that my claims about the potential inflationary effect of the platinum coin were overblown. With regards to the first claim, I have very little to add other than the fact that I don’t subscribe to the “two wrongs make a right” theory of public policy. The second claim, however, is more substantive. It is also something about which economic theory has something to say.
In many contemporary models, money is either excluded completely or is introduced using a reduced form approach, such as including real money balances in the utility function. These models are ill-equipped to tackle the effects of the introduction of the platinum coin because they either assume that money always has value (it generates utility) or that it has no value whatsoever. An analysis of the effects of the platinum coin should be backed by an understanding of what gives money value in a world of fiat money and the conditions necessary to insure a unique equilibrium in which money has value. In doing so, one can show that having the Fed conduct open market sales to offset the increase in the monetary base from the minting of the platinum coin (i.e. holding the money supply constant) might not be sufficient to prevent a significant inflation.
To illustrate the properties of money, I am going to employ the monetary search model of Lagos and Wright. (If you’re allergic to math, scroll down a bit.) The reason that I am employing this approach is because it is built on first principles, its explicit about the conditions under which a monetary equilibrium exists, and can be used to derive a dynamic equilibrium condition that can shed light on the value of money.
where is the discount factor, is the quantity of goods purchased in the DM, and is the quantity of goods produced by the buyer in the CM. Consumption of the DM good provides utility to the buyer and production of the CM good generates disutility of production. Here, the utility function satisfies .
where denotes the price of money in terms of goods, denotes money balances, and the apostrophe denotes an end of period value. Now let's denote the value function for buyers in the DM as and the value function for buyers entering the CM as .
From this last expression, we can now place conditions on whether anyone will actually hold fiat money. It follows from the maximization problem above that the necessary condition for a monetary equilibrium is that . Intuitively, this means that the value of holding fiat money today is greater than or equal to the discounted value of holding money tomorrow. If this condition is violated, everyone would be better off holding their money until tomorrow indefinitely. No monetary equilibrium could exist.
This difference equation now governs the dynamics of the price of money. We can now use this assess claims that the platinum coin would not have any inflationary effect.
Suppose that and have standard functional forms. Specifically, assume that and . [I should note that the conclusions here are robust to more general functional forms as well.] If this is the case, then the difference equation is a convex function up to a certain point at which the difference equation becomes linear. The convex portion is what is important for our purposes. The fact that the difference equation is convex implies that the difference equation intersects the 45-degree line used to plot the steady-state equilibrium in two different places. This means that there are multiple equilibria. One equilibrium, which we will call is the equilibrium that is assumed to be the case by advocates of the platinum coin. They assume that if we begin in this equilibrium, the Federal Reserve can simply hold the money supply constant through open market operations and in so doing prevent the price of money (i.e. the inverse of the price level) from fluctuating.
However, what this suggestion ignores is that the difference equation also intersects the 45-degree line at the origin. Coupled with the range of convexity of the difference equation, this implies that there are multiple equilibria that converge to an equilibrium in which money does not have value (i.e. ). Put in economic terms, there are multiple equilibria that are decreasing in , which means that they increasing in the price level. It is therefore possible to have inflation even with a constant money supply. The beliefs of economic agents are self-fulfilling.
In terms of the platinum coin, this implies that the explicit monetization of the debt by minting the platinum coin can potentially have disastrous effects even if the president states that the infusion is temporary and even if the Federal Reserve conducts open market operations to offset the increase in the monetary base caused by the deposit of the coin by the Treasury. In short, if the debt monetization were to have a significant impact on inflation expectations, it is possible that the United States could experience significant inflation even if the Federal Reserve tried to hold the money supply constant. The very idea that this represents a possible outcome should render the platinum coin to be a bad idea.
Nonetheless, a growing subset of individuals who believe that the Congressional Republicans are recalcitrant have suggested that the president authorize the Treasury department to mint a $1 trillion platinum coin (because this is within constitutional authority) and deposit it with the Federal Reserve to enable the payment of the federal government debt. The argument is that in doing so the president can circumvent the debt ceiling within constitutional limits. In addition, advocates argue that, since the coin will never circulate, the minting of the coin will not be inflationary.
If this idea sounds ludicrous, that is because it is.
Minting a platinum coin sufficient to pay off the deficit is what is traditionally known as monetizing the debt. To put it bluntly, large-scale debt monetization is bad. This is traditionally how hyperinflations start. Nonetheless, we are told that we needn’t be concerned because the coin won’t circulate. This would seem to ignore two factors: (1) the point of the coin is to pay for the debt, and (2) money is fungible. Thus, if the Treasury minted a $1 trillion platinum coin and deposited it at the Federal Reserve, the entire point of doing so would be to allow the Federal Reserve to make payments on behalf of the Treasury for government spending that exceeds tax revenue. Even if the coin itself doesn’t circulate (how could it?), the money supply can still increase substantially as the Treasury writes checks out of its account at the Federal Reserve.
[Inflation] is a more serious objection, and it gets at what the platinum coin strategy really is — financing the federal government’s operations by printing money instead of borrowing it. The trillion- dollar coin will never circulate, but it will be used to back cash payments coming from the Treasury that would have otherwise been financed by bond purchases.
If the government financed itself this way in general, that would absolutely be inflationary. But the president can hold inflation expectations steady by making absolutely clear that the policy will not lead to a net change in the money supply over the long term. Obama should pledge that once Congress authorizes additional borrowing, he will direct the Treasury to issue bonds to cover the government’s coin-backed spending and then to melt the coin.
I similarly believe that expectations are important. However, Barro seems to fall into the growing category of folks who think that expectations are all that matters and that policymakers can perfectly affect expectations. An announcement from the president that the increase in the money supply isn’t permanent does not guarantee that the minting of the coin is seen as such. In order to believe that the money supply would not increase, we would not only have to believe that the Treasury would commit to borrowing money in the future once the debt ceiling was lifted, but also that the Treasury would borrow enough money to finance the previously financed cash payments necessary to enable them to withdraw the $1 trillion coin. In other words, we would have to believe that the Treasury could perfectly commit itself to actions it would prefer not to take. Or we would have to assume that the Federal Reserve would conduct large scale asset sales to prevent increases in the money supply. Put differently, in the midst of conducting large scale asset purchases, the Fed must commit to large scale asset sales to prevent the money supply from growing by more than they wish as a result of the minting of the coin. The policy would not only tie the hands of monetary policymakers, but forcing the Federal Reserve to conduct such policy is a threat to its independence. And if inflation expectations became unanchored, this could exasperate the effects of the increased money supply and the coin could be particularly harmful.
Advocates think that it gives the president an upper hand in debt ceiling negotiations. However, all it does is increase the stakes of the chicken game. The platinum coin is a bad idea. | 2019-04-24T16:28:42 | https://everydayecon.wordpress.com/2013/01/ |

Arguably one of the most important rooms in anyones home, the kitchen needs careful consideration, planning and thought. Storage needs, safety, look and budget are all important factors in ensuring your kitchen works for you. We caught up with some of Ireland’s expert interior designers to give their top tips on how you can plan the perfect kitchen.
The most important tip I can give to anyone remodelling their kitchen is to keep or introduce the Golden Work Triangle to the layout, says Roisin Lafferty of Kingston Lafferty Design.The triangle is a clearway in the heart of the kitchen that connects the three main elements in that space; The fridge, stove/hob and the sink. This method will dramatically improve your kitchen’s efficiency for a hassle free work space.
Make the kitchen reflect you and/or your family. One of the best ways to so this is by using colours. A splash of colour doesn’t necessarily need to be a bright colour. Play around with colour samples on the wall and let them hang for a couple of days to get your eye used to them before making a decision.
Making your kitchen multifunctional! Kitchens have stepped away from being a hidden room within the home and they are a great place for social gatherings. By including a kitchen island in your design it can be the perfect place for entertaining as well as cooking.
Consider spending a bit more on Ironmongery! An easy way to change and elevate your kitchen design is to contribute a higher spec cabinet fixtures. A brass finished knob or handle mixed with a darker coloured kitchen is a timeless design. Our favourite on budget ironmongery are from Zara Home and Etsy.
Go Bold with the backsplash as it is usually the focal point in a kitchen. Don’t be afraid of using stone, tiles, bricks or mirror! Roisin Lafferty, Kingston Lafferty Design.
Whether you’re extending, converting or renovating, including roof lights in your kitchen is a fantastic way of introducing more daylight into your design. The higher the light source, the brighter the room will be, says Denise O’Connor of Optimise Design.
If you’re planning a major renovation, installing a roof window is a relatively easy job and can bring in up to 40% more light than a traditional window.
Open shelving is a fast-growing kitchen trend, following on from the idea of kitchens spilling into living spaces. Creating more areas for display will help to make your kitchen feel more integrated. However, bear in mind you’ll need to be a relatively tidy person to make this feature work in your own home.
Using darker colours in the kitchen is a growing trend and one that’s likely to continue. However, before committing to the latest moody hue, consider the light available in your kitchen, as you could find a dark design too oppressive.
A clever way to give a nod to this style if you think the whole look could be too much is to go for a dark-painted island and keep the rest of the kitchen light.
Marble and marble-style quartz worktops are becoming increasingly popular. They can add real design oomph, particularly when the rest of the kitchen is kept very plain. You could also consider the addition of a splashback, but bear in mind that stone and quartz are pricey, so work out your budget in advance. Denise O’Connor, Optimise Design.
How you use the space.
Think about how you use the space. Do you like entertaining, cooking, having dinner parties? Is the kitchen the hub of your home and do other other activities happen in the space such as homework? All of these factors ultimately have an impact on layout, aesthetic and appliance specification.
Possibly not the most exciting part of planning a new kitchen but definitely one of the most important. Thinking and measuring existing appliances that need to be stored, down to how much glassware and food storage you need. The devil is in the detail and a well planned storage system with ensure your kitchen functions just as you intended. Claire Price & Elaine Regan, House Edit.

I don’t know why I haven’t thought of using a shirt to create a dress bodice before. It’s so easy! You can basically pick any knit top you have, crop it into a bodice, then attach a skirt, and BOOM! You have a new dress. I recommend doing this with black or white knit tops since the fabric will be easy to match.
I got this top at Tag’s Thrift and immediately thought of making it into a dress. Here’s how the process went.
First, use a shirt to create a dress bodice by cropping it with scissors.
Then, to create the skirt, I measured the width of the bodice so I could make sure to cut the waist wide enough. I used another dress to help create the pattern. If your knit is stretchier in one direction, make sure that’s the direction going across the waist.
I only sewed one side seam of the new skirt before attaching it to the bodice.
I did this so that I could create the second side seam to line up exactly with the other side seam of the bodice.
Because I was working with knits, I used a ball point needle and a zig zag stitch. This will almost always guarantee success when working with knit fabric. Once the skirt was attached to the waistline, and the second side seam closed, I simply hemmed the dress and was done.
Don’t want to make your own dress? Check out these cute finds instead. | 2019-04-23T02:44:09 | https://karametta.com/2014/11/using-a-shirt-to-create-a-dress-bodice.html |
Pain is the nervous system’s response to potential or occurring injury, and is meant as an alert, triggering the body’s natural self-preservation responses. Chronic pain is different. Chronic pain persists even when the initial cause of pain has been removed or healed, and it can be ongoing — with pain signals firing in the nervous system continuously or intermittently over an extended period of time. For some patients, pain can last for years, and chronic pain may induce debilitating side effects that can include depression, anger, anxiety, and fear.
Chronic pain can be difficult to diagnose and treat, and when pain becomes a patient’s daily companion, his or her quality of life can be greatly diminished. If you suffer from chronic pain, you are not alone. An Institute of Medicine report estimated that in 2011, more than 100 million Americans suffered with chronic pain conditions.
Chronic pain can be the result of a trauma — an injury, a surgery, or a serious infection — or pain may be the result of ongoing disease. However, pain may also occur in the absence of any of these triggers.
A wide range of treatment options is available to treat chronic pain. In most cases, patients find that a combination of treatments is most effective. Medical personnel that are experienced with pain management are prepared to offer effective help not just for the physical component of pain, but also for the stressful emotional aspects of living with chronic pain.
Because any treatment carries the potential for side effects or complications, it is important that you discuss with your physician any pre-existing conditions or injuries as well as current medications before undergoing any new treatment. | 2019-04-22T14:51:49 | https://www.resolutemd.com/conditions/chronic-pain |
1. firstly I don't know how to use JBPM server with eclipse IDE, if is important to have jbpm pluggin integrate in eclipse. my eclipse ide is helios and my jbpm is vesion 5.
2. secondly I would like to know how we can deploy jpm projet design in eclipse ide in te workflow motor JBPM 5.
so I read user guide but I don't understand very well.
there is no such thing as a "jBPM server". The jBPM engine works without any server. Only if you want to use the grovnor-tools (for editing process definitions) or the jbpm-console (for executing human task processes) you need to run an application server (i.e. JBoss) and deploy the components.
Have you tried out the demo? There is an eclipse helios installation inculded and configured by the ant script. | 2019-04-25T06:30:33 | https://developer.jboss.org/thread/170076 |

Stevan Downey was a 26-year veteran of the Lynn Police Department as well as a Marine Corps veteran of the Vietnam War. He was well known, liked and admired by just about everyone in the City of Lynn. All those he encountered through his work had tremendous respect for how he did his job - with toughness, fairness, and compassion. His impact on the City of Lynn was significant.
He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather who is survived by his wife, Carolyn, as well as four children and nine grandchildren (four posthumously). Outside of work, it was rare to find him when he wasn't spending valuable time with his family. When not with his family, you were likely to see him enjoying a ride on his Harley-Davidson, occasionally with an American flag flying from the back.
Unfortunately, Steve was lost too soon and too quickly to mesothelioma cancer. | 2019-04-25T22:42:44 | http://stevedowneygolf.com/pages/stevan/stevan.php |
Our trip to London for Thanksgiving week provided two opportunities to visit the British Airways London Heathrow Terminal 5 Galleries First Lounge. My September and October trips around Europe included several visits to the British Airways T5 North Galleries Club lounge.
Just like when flying, there are several different lounge classes at London Heathrow and you need the proper status or ticket type to access these lounges. British Airways LHR lounges.
Concorde Room is for passengers holding First Class tickets. Not mentioned on this chart (info is on webpage linked above) is the Terminal 5 Arrivals lounge. Arrivals Lounge is not accessible unless flying First Class or Club World ticket on international long-haul or hold British Airways Gold membership. Arrivals lounge is not open to Oneworld Alliance Emerald members, unless you hold a Club World or First ticket.
British Airways Galleries First Lounge is located in Terminal 5A South. Our flight from LHR to Stockholm departed from a gate directly below the BA Galleries First Lounge. Access is limited to passengers holding a First Class ticket or Oneworld Emerald members, which is the status I have as an American Airlines AAdvantage Executive Platinum member.
The food items were the same as in both lounges. The drink looked the same to me. At least there was no difference in canned beers.
Galleries First lounge had less than half the seating occupied compared to the heavily crowded Galleries Club lounge.
This trip we were in the Galleries First lounge on two different mornings for breakfast. Finding a breakfast table was a challenge both times. We ended up sharing a table with a solo diner on our second trip when we had only about 20 minutes to eat before boarding our flight to San Francisco.
Galleries First lounge offers a menu selection for cooked to order dining, in addition to the buffet. Ordered meals include items like boiled eggs with toasted soldiers. I had to do a web search to learn toasted soldiers are pieces of sliced toast. Also on the breakfast menu were porridge, eggs benedict, eggs and Scottish kippers (fish), a breakfast sandwich and fried eggs.
There are several areas in the lounge with alcohol. Procuring alcohol is much easier than accessing food during the times we were in the lounge. Like most of the lounge guests, we were not drinking alcohol before 7am in the morning and spent our time in lines for breakfast foods, coffee, juice and water.
My main complaint about the BA lounges is there are no bottled beers offered and no beer taps. All beer is in cans and minimal selection with Heineken and London Pride being the premier beers available.
Plenty of cookies and potato chips around the lounge.
There is a kids room with TV, computers and games near the food tables.
Overall, British Airways Terminal 5A Galleries First lounge is a comfortable place to hang out while waiting for a flight. The space is far less crowded than the Galleries Club lounges. I find their beer selection lacking and the absence of any bottles of beer a disappointment. Wine and spirits drinkers will probably find the selection adequate for most desires.
Uh, both alcohol and food are far far better in First than Galleries–two champagne options in F, no sparkling in Galleries, Premium spirits (including Johnnie Walker Blue if you like that sort of thing), much better wines… Food options are also much more varied, not only including the made to order.
Josh UK – all I know about the alcohol is the beer selection is the same in both lounges. I did not compare wine and spirits between lounges. My evaluation of the food options was based on walking from British Airways Club lounge where I ate lunch to the First lounge where I saw the exact same selections at lunch one day. I did not see the lunch menu that visit.
Wembleygal – menu options at breakfast were the ones I listed. I never saw a dining menu in First Class outside of breakfast hours. | 2019-04-19T11:23:49 | https://loyaltytraveler.boardingarea.com/2015/12/09/review-british-airways-lhr-t5-galleries-first-lounge/ |

25 sorghum genotypes were evaluated for salinity tolerance using NaCl (sodium chloride) as stress factor. The variables analyzed were height, root length, dry weight of shoot plus leaves and root dry weight. HCN and total chlorophyll contents of 2 tolerant and 2 susceptible genotypes were determined. HCN was very high in tolerant genotypes compared to susceptible ones. Total chlorophyll was lower under salinity stress. | 2019-04-22T14:28:38 | https://eurekamag.com/research/010/611/010611506.php |
A fledgling group of PhD students and researchers from NDRI’s Melbourne office came together for the reading group’s first meeting on a Wednesday evening. Over haloumi fries and beverages at a local pub in Fitzroy, Melbourne, the group discussed a chapter from John Law’s book After Method (2004), alongside Robyn Dwyer and David Moore’s (2013) paper ‘Enacting multiple methamphetamines: The ontological politics of public discourse and consumer accounts of a drug and its effects’.
Over the last decade Law’s After Method (alongside other works from science and technology studies, actor network theory and feminist science studies) has been used widely in Australian sociological qualitative scholarship on alcohol and other drugs. The ideas brought together and explored in After Method – enactment, performativity, multiplicity and ontological politics – have been central to what has been termed the ‘ontological turn’ in the social sciences. In a recent editorial, Fraser describes this as, ‘a turn towards the idea that the ontology of things (the nature of their being) is constituted in practice—in the ways those things are understood, responded to and even researched’ (2017, p. 130). In After Method John Law draws together and synthesises the work of other scholars working in STS and ANT (e.g. Bruno Latour, Steve Woolgar and Annemarie Mol) to draw attention to the performativity of scientific and other knowledge-making practices, and to pose a performative ontology of reality. One feature of STS ethnographic and practice-based analyses of knowledge making is their insistence on the materiality of the world, and the agency of things (other than humans). We discussed how this is in contrast (and response) to social constructionist approaches which interprets all things to be products of discourse and power, their meaning – and agency (i.e. subject positons) – established in language.
We tackled chapter two of After Method entitled ‘Simplification practices’, which offers an account of the laboratory ethnography conducted by Bruno Latour and Steve Woolgar in Laboratory Life (1979). In Laboratory Life (1979), Latour and Woolgar describe how scientific practices, instruments and tools – or what are termed ‘inscription devices’ – isolate, detect and name material substances. For instance, they discuss how extracts are taken and produced from rats, which are subsequently placed in a machine, that are then converted ‘into an array of figures or inscriptions on a sheet of paper’ (Law, 2004: 20). At this juncture, the group had an unexpected conversational detour into the materiality of rats. Although ‘rats’ may precede the reality of their incorporation into diagnostic assays, their existence as real (as ‘rats’) is always dependent on their realisation in other assemblages of practice. Even if a thing’s existence might be settled (such as agreement that a rat is a rat is a rat), Law also helps us to see that such is not a reflection of an external reality accurately captured and represented in language, or scientific knowledge, but an effect of repeated and iterative practice.
Importantly, in this sense, Latour and Woolgar, and subsequently Law, emphasise that inscription is distinct from description. The reality of particular phenomenon (of particular interest to our reading group were phenomena such as drugs, ‘alcohol-related violence’, take-home naloxone, performance and image-enhancing drugs, testosterone, hepatitis C and bodies) are forged and constituted through their inscription and enactment (and re-enactment) in networks of scientific and other knowledge practices. The reality of any given phenomenon is settled once all the traces of its construction have been erased: ‘reality becomes the determining factor’ (Law, 2004: 37). Thus, it is not simply that reality always existed, out there, and has now been agreed upon to be accurately found to exist, but that the controversies and messiness involved in the making of a reality are deleted. Then, according to Law, the statements about the thing and the thing itself become ‘inverted’, so that ‘the object becomes the reason why the statement was made in the first place’ (ibid).
On this view, one of the central thrusts of this chapter is STS’s challenge to Euro-American metaphysics and common-sense realism that the world is independent, anterior (to us), definite in form and singular. With the recognition that ontology is inseparable from practice, we arrive at the notion of ontological multiplicity (the topic of the following chapter explored through Annemarie Mol’s The Body Multiple). That is, across differing and various sites of practices, different and multiple realities are performed. Law is careful to highlight that a recognition of multiplicity is not the same as suggesting that all realities are possible and can get made. Instead, existing ‘hinterlands’ of relations, knowledges, practices, objects and actors hold realities in place, both shaping and constraining how and which realities get made. A talking point for our reading group was the way in which the notion of ontological multiplicity can avoid adopting a relativist stance (i.e. the idea that all differences are equal and should be respected). On this point, we returned to Law’s engagement with the political implications of multiplicity. If reality is multiple, the purpose of critical qualitative sociological work, particularly in a field as politicised as alcohol and other drug use, must surely be to nurture, tend to and compose those realities that do less harm. In this sense, we agreed that ontological multiplicity is unlike relativism in that it offers an explicitly political and ethical stance.
Dwyer and Moore’s article on the ontological multiplicity of methamphetamine takes up these insights and applies them to the study of public discourse on methamphetamine. They note that methamphetamine is routinely enacted a ‘stable, singular and definite object’ that causes psychosis across a range of empirical sites including drug education, health promotion, media, professional training and policy and research texts (2013: 207). Yet turning to consumer accounts they argue that consumers of methamphetamine foreground the variability of its effects – including its pleasures – and its contingency on local, social and cultural contexts and practices, including sleep, work and social relationships. Here, we spoke about how knowledge making practices don’t simply unearth or bring to light a new reality; they’re involved in the contestation of the prevailing reality, and the effects of this reality. Thus, in relation to methamphetamine for instance, it is not simply that the dominant biomedical frameworks fail to account for the diversity or contingency of experience, but that their dominance produces problematic categories, identities, and responses, which themselves reify the realities generated and sustained in biomedicine, neuroscience and psychology and their hinterlands. The determinism in each of these frameworks privileges pharmacological or neuro-chemical, or psychological realities – buttressed by the Euro-American metaphysical assumptions about the singularity of reality. Attending to the ways in which these objects are stabilised in ‘(one) biomedical hinterland’ (Dwyer & Moore, 2013: 210), permits attention to the contemporary ontological politics of drug use, in which reducing drug use rather than reducing harm from drug use is prioritised.
This is conceptually-driven work that expertly explains and uses the central concepts outlined in After Method. In this way it was a helpful and complementary reading for our group, whose different members come at STS from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and with varying levels of experience. Although After Method tends to focus on scientific practices, the implications of its arguments about the nature of reality and the messiness of reality-making is relevant to the study of all knowledge practices, including our own methodological ones. In this way revisiting these ideas, or encountering them for the first time, was a useful departure point for the group as we grapple with STS’s difference from social constructionism and its relationship to post-humanism. These themes emerged in different guises throughout our discussion and we look forward to discussing them next month when we read Cameron Duff’s Deleuzian and ANT-inspired work on drugs and assemblages of health.

Panna cotta is the kind of simple but deluxe dessert that never falls out of season or goes out of style. Infinitely adaptable to your favourite flavours (chocolate! Honey! Prosecco!), and to the whims of seasonality, the barely-set cream dessert (panna cotta translates directly as ‘cooked cream’) is simple, elegant, and the perfect finish to a feast all year round.
This version combines the classic flavour of vanilla (blessedly available year-round) with a fresh stone fruit salad dressed with a splash of white balsamic, taking advantage of the wealth of fruit available in Australia in late Summer and early Autumn, but berries, apples, or tropical fruits would be equally perfect matches.
While we’ve used the seeds from a split vanilla bean, any of our quality vanilla products will flavour this special dessert.
Soak the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water for five minutes, until fully malleable.
Combine sugar, milk, cream, vanilla seeds and vanilla pod in a saucepan over a medium heat and bring to a simmer while stirring constantly. Once boiling, remove from heat and add soaked gelatine, discarding the gelatine water.
Stir until gelatine is completely dissolved, then leave mix to cool for around 40 minutes.
Strain mix into dariole moulds or ramekins, and refrigerate until set (at least two hours).
Prepare the fruit salad just prior to serving by combining cut fruit with vanilla, white balsamic and olive oil in a large bowl. Serve panna cotta by carefully lowering each mould into hot water for a few seconds (taking care not to let any water get in contact with the set panna cotta). Flip each mould onto an individual serving plate, remove mould, then surround the panna cotta with a few spoonfuls of fruit salad. | 2019-04-22T04:10:41 | https://www.essentialingredient.com.au/article/recipe-vanilla-panna-cotta-stone-fruit-salad/?v=3a1ed7090bfa |
What more is there to say? The plumber did it... In a year when it seemed like everyone cared for anything else but quality and excitement in music, it's hard to find some real Norwegian classics at all. Well, by judging the national press there's been L-O-A-D-S released this last year. Hype is all around. All you need is hype. Sure, it's quite ok for pop and rock in Norway to be appricated. But there's a limit, and when the content is missing it doesnt' matter how shiny the gift wrapping is.
For finding some of the 2003 releases check our back issues (I could namedrop Cato Salsa Experience, Magnet, St. Thomas or Øyvind Ryan-Gruppen). Others worth mentioning? Well, the album I liked the best was maybe hip-hop twosome Equicez and their State of Emergency - Generation Equiz. Others into flowing rhythms and words were Jaa9 & OnklP (a.k.a. Dirty Oppland) and their Bondegramatikk - the mixtape.
The pop-heads of the year? As always lots are happening in Bergen or on the western coast. Newcomer-youngster Julian Berntzen released his Waffy Town. Another newcomer-youngster, Sergeant Petter put out his It's a Record, while a third young newcomeresse (ok, she's a Swede in exile) Karin Park presented her Superworldunknow. Then there's this young Norwegian lady Ane Brun (living in Sweden) who also made her debut with the critically acclaimed ode to her best friend (her guitar), Spending time with Morgan. And while being on the Norwegian-Swedish relationship track: another solo artist Frode Fivel (of Hello Goodbye) who's been traveling between our two countries put out his debut Patience Will Win.
And for those about to rock...? bit on the side we've got the noise-experimental trio (bass, drums and viola!) Noxagt, noticed for their album Turning It Down Since 2001. Another more rock solid, hard working trio is El Caco who put out Solid Rest. And, finally, Ricochets came with their follow up The Ghost Of Our Love, showing a more sober edition of the band. | 2019-04-25T21:45:38 | http://lunakafe.com/moon89/no89d.php |
I so totally know how this sounds to write to a service, but I must confess: your little wings have changed the trajectory of my life and – for the most part – I think it’s been for the best.
I’ve been around for over 40 years, have seen many things, met all sorts of people and have – mostly – enjoyed my life. But I think every several hundred years, a tiny and almost insignificant tool comes out of nowhere and changes the world – like the wheel and zero, both of which are truly “nothing” (both are each shaped the same way). And yet the each not only changed the course of civilizations but also created them.
My son was born just before Twitter and in the last several years, my whole world-view has changed. Twitter has helped me to connect with people I *never* would have met without it. Twitter has launched me into totally different career-directions (plural) and I still don’t know where I’ll be next month because there are so many opportunities before us in today’s world. Twitter has rewired my brain, I’m sure of it.
Years ago I tried – hopelessly – to explain to people what Twitter was. I tried to convince doctors and nurses that Twitter could help them professionally by delivering relevant content and by connecting them with colleagues. But it was in vain.
It was not too long ago that it was unimaginable that doctors and nurses would be chatting in 140 characters like they do on @RNchat and @MD_chat.
I feel a bit better now that Twitter has hundreds of millions of users and is growing. I don’t know if Twitter Inc. will last, but the premise of Twitter is here to stay: the tweet is now a fundamental unit of communication in the 21st Century. It’s how we’ll connect (or disconnect) and it’s going to be the way millions of machines will follow each other and communicate and create an almost unimaginable world.
Only five years ago, nobody thought that the world would communicate publicly within 140 characters. Yes, people were text messaging – but that was between two people privately. To do so openly, globally and instantly was not even a thought.
Twitter has revealed a social construct that has been within us for a hundred thousand years which we never even knew existed.
Twitter is now a propellent for technological evolution. It’s a technology-spurring technology shifting the course of the human journey and there’s nothing we can do now to stop its curving of cultural space-time.
Twitter – and her sister-media – are so historic that there will be no history books written about them. For they are displacing the kinds of books you and I grew to know. That’s not even a claim-to-fame Guttenberg’s moveable type can make.
Am I a nut? Yes. Am I a nut to believe that Twitter is as big a deal as I think it is? Yes, perhaps – but I don’t think I’m the only one. All I can say is: Twitter, you’ve changed my life – for good or ill.
@JaeSelle – Jae, ‘cuz you’re digilicious.
@Loren_Feldman Loren deleted his Twitter accounts (@1938media) but Loren is one of the most passionate people about social media – he deeply understands how important it is for us to be smart about these media. I knew about him before Twitter, but it was through the lens of Twitter that I came to appreciate him through his persona as 1938media. Loren – you have one of the most important voices on and about the Internet- and you’re funny as sh*t, which is really all that matters. I wish you the best in whatever you do. Truly.
A couple years ago, my 82-year old Hungarian mother, who survived WWII, asked me: “Phee-lip, vat eez dees Tveety, Tveetar thing I all-vays hear about on zee news?” I demonstrated it to her using TweetDeck. She “got it” within about 5 minutes.
My mom’s no dummy – a woman who witnessed and survived the worst of humanity, who came to this country, started her own business and raised five kids. When someone like that says Twitter is world-changing, you listen.
If you ever land, may it be in a safe and warm place. | 2019-04-20T21:25:17 | https://philbaumann.com/tag/twitter-birthday/ |

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Even the best laid plans to limit the influence of Cristiano Ronaldo might not be enough for Morocco when they come up against Portugal at the World Cup in Moscow, coach Herve Renard said on the eve of the Group B game.
Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in Portugal’s opening 3-3 draw with Spain, while Morocco lost 1-0 to Iran who top the group.
“Even if you conjure up the best plans to halt Ronaldo, he will find a way to break free. He always makes the difference, at the minimum to put his side on the right track and at best to win the game for them,” the French-born coach said on Tuesday.
The Morocco coach might consider taking a leaf out of Iceland’s play book after they had up to three players at times harrying Lionel Messi and restricting his ability to play.
“Obviously he’s a major player and, together with Messi, the biggest star in this tournament. | 2019-04-19T03:23:12 | https://in.reuters.com/article/soccer-worldcup-por-mar-preview/soccer-planning-for-ronaldo-might-prove-futile-says-morocco-coach-idINKBN1JF2O9 |

Earlier, I wrote about how to snag a suite in Vegas without paying full price for it.
Here are my other tips for living large in the Sin City and still having money left in your wallet when you head home.
But the value at Tix4Tonight really is with their reservation system. You can book reservations at restaurants for a modest fee (~$2) and receive a discount off your entire bill. It ranges from restaurant to restaurant, but I managed to get a reservation for 50% off at Mario Batali’s restaurant. I went there with my mom and it was incredible.
This is especially true if you go out for the night slightly early, or right around happy hour time. They are trying to pre-fill places for the dinner crowd and for the night crowd so that the places feel important and full. I’ve got to go on the roof of the Mandalay Bay–and I got my discounted drinks at two-for-one.
Why pay when you can go free? Here’s my guide to getting into Las Vegas clubs for free (yes, men can get in for free too).
If you are talking about the travel agent, I got free room service from them each day.

Principle 1 (Selfless Service): Focus on the needs of your students and colleagues before considering your own. Commit to respectfully serving others even when your actions are unlikely to be noticed, rewarded, or beneficial to your own professional development.
Principle 2 (Absolute Excellence): Devote yourself and encourage others to commit themselves to uncompromising excellence in all aspects of personal and professional development.
Principle 3 (Relentless Effort): Unless the opportunity cost of further effort is prohibitively high, work hard towards the accomplishment of the goals you set — and help others to do the same.
Principle 4 (Realistic Expectations): Recognize that all people, including yourself, have fundamental strengths and weaknesses. Identify the strengths in your own life and the lives of others and plan activities so as to maximize the positive impact on the community.
Principle 5 (Contagious Joy): Pursue everything with passion and enthusiasm. Take advantage of every opportunity to encourage your students and colleagues. Always end a conversation or a meeting with a positive remark.

The pilots of a jet that crashed in Ethiopia killing all on board used a flight simulator to learn how to fly the Boeing 737 MAX 8 plane, the airline told CNN.
Flight 302 crashed March 10, six minutes after takeoff from Addis Ababa. It was the second disaster involving a new 737 Max 8 plane in less than six months.
Ethiopian Airlines CEO Tewolde GebreMariam said the simulator the pilots trained on can't replicate the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), a new automated feature on the 737 Max 8 planes that crash investigators are scrutinizing.
"As far as the training is concerned ... we've gone according to the Boeing recommendation and FAA-approved one. We are not expected to speculate or to imagine something that doesn't exist at all," GebreMariam said Saturday, rejecting previous media reports that the pilots of the ill-fated flight did not train to fly the new model of jet on a simulator. The airline said the simulator had been up and running since January.
Pilots' union spokesmen for Southwest and American said the self-administered course -- which one pilot told CNN he took on his iPad -- highlighted the differences between the Max 8 and older 737s, but did not explain the MCAS feature.
In response to October's Lion Air crash, Boeing developed a software patch and a pilot training program to address the issues from the fatal flight, the FAA said in an airworthiness directive Wednesday.
"We will have to wait and see the correction that is being worked out by Boeing and we will have to convince ourselves," GebreMariam said. "And I think the entire world has to convince itself before we put this airplane back to air." | 2019-04-21T04:47:02 | https://www.en.telexiran.com/news/cnn/world/ethiopian-airlines-ceo-rejects-criticism-that-pilots-did-not-train-on-737-max-8-simulator |

Data science is the profession of the future, because organizations that are unable to use (big) data in a smart way will not survive. It is not sufficient to focus on data storage and data analysis. The data scientist also needs to relate data to process analysis. Process mining bridges the gap between traditional model-based process analysis (e.g., simulation and other business process management techniques) and data-centric analysis techniques such as machine learning and data mining.
Analyzing treatment processes in hospitals, improving customer service processes in a multinational, understanding the browsing behavior of customers using a booking site, analyzing failures of a baggage handling system, and improving the user interface of an X-ray machine. | 2019-04-19T11:18:49 | https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/trainings/process-mining-data-science-action-eindhoven-university-technology/ |
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps – Gordon never gives up.
Screenplay by Allan Loeb and Stephen Schiff.
Characters by Oliver Stone and Stanley Weiser.
This is the sequel to the 1987 hit “Wall Street”. Oliver Stone revisits the financial world after our real life bank scandals that shook the banking world.
Jake Moore (LaBeouf) is dating Winnie Gekko (Mulligan) the daughter of Gordon Gekko (Douglas). She is estranged from her father and she blames her brothers death on her fathers’ behaviour. She wants nothing to do with him.
Gordon Gekko (Douglas) gets out of prison and the world has left him behind. This is shown poignantly when he is handed his old cellular phone which was used in the first movie on a beach. It is now a relic and we are led to believe that Gekko is as well.
He is an adaptable man and quickly writes a book on the current financial crisis. The book is well received and in a strange way so is Gekko. He is lecturing and his audience is responding well to what he is saying. Jake decides to talk to Gekko and let him know that he is going to marry his daughter.
Winnie warns Jake that her father cannot be trusted but Jake is persistent. His company was run into the ground by another shark named Bretton James (Brolin). Jake gets Bretton James attention by doing some shady stock manipulation that would be hard to prove. Bretton is not bothered he simply hires Jake and we are sent on a journey with Jake where he must try to piece his life together without losing himself. He is swimming in deep waters and he is not sure who he can trust. Winnie has a hundred million dollar trust that he knew nothing about and Jake is beyond tempted.
This is a respectable sequel and Michael Douglas once again delivers a top notch performance. LaBeouf is adequate as Jake and Brolin does a great job with Bretton James. It is fun to watch Eli Wallach still shining on the big screen at the age of 95. This movie is well done and definitely worth a watch.

The church has been facing charges of sexual abuse for decades, more or less unsuccessfully. Victims of abuse, most having endured abuse at the hands of priests as young people, had their claims discounted, filed away, bureaucratically manhandled. Losing patience with the church’s glacial pace, police officials in Belgium raided church offices looking for evidence of official cover-up. The Pope expressed outrage and called for ‘respecting the rights of victims.’ Of course, the ‘victims’ he was referring to weren’t the thousands of victims of sexual abuse at the hands of his church’s priests, but the church itself, which had to endure the unwanted advances of those leather-clad rough boys from the Belgian police.
You see, Bishop Pete is a modern man. Just like most of his flock these days, he uses social media to connect with people and, sometimes, to offend them. In the days following the announcement of the marriage of Price William and Lady Kate Middleton, he used facebook to compare them to sort of a third-rate celebrity couple and predicted the marriage would only last seven years. Now, many people might share Bishop Pete’s sentiments, but few would risk their livelihood to express them publicly, fewer still when the subject is your country’s future sovereign. Hey, Bishop Pete: #fail.

Quilter’s Slidelocks are unlike any of the rulers quilters commonly use. When a quilter positions a Slidelock non-slip quilting ruler on fabric and pushes down on the center of the handle, rotary cutting magic happens; absolutely nothing moves. Not the fabric, not the Slidelock. Every width-of-fabric strip or quilt block piece is perfect.
It’s the most accurate method of non-slip fabric cutting there is.
All it takes is a minimal amount of continuous hand pressure applied to the center of the handle to securely hold both fabric and Slidelock non-slip quilting ruler in place while rotary cutting.
The ¼” inch thick base adds an extra measure of rotary cutting safety. With your hand safely up on the handle and the quarter inch thick base guiding edge, the chance of the rotary cutter going up and across the Slidelock base and into your hand is greatly reduced.
A Quilters Slidelock non-slip quilting ruler is an excellent solution for those quilters who have all but given up quilting due to arthritis, carpal tunnel or other conditions that have made using excessive hand pressure on a flat ruler all but impossible.
Using the Slidelock non-slip quilting ruler is EASY!
Measure the width of the fabric strip or piece that you need.
Position the Slidelock where you need it. Push down on the handle – the locking mechanisms will come down and hold the fabric into place. It takes only minimal hand pressure to hold the Slidelock in place. Hold the handle of the Slidelock while you make your cut.
Cut the fabric. When cutting multiple layers of fabric at one time, we like to use a 60-degree rotary cutter for a smooth, fast and accurate cut.
Safe, easy and accurate cuts every time – with NO slippage! | 2019-04-22T01:03:33 | https://www.quiltersslidelock.com/about-the-quilters-slidelock/ |

These live activities provide the academics involved ready access to Chinese undergraduate students, both allowing the academics to identify potential postgraduate students and at the same time give the students a taste of what study will be like in their institution, thus creating a unique marketing opportunity for you to recruit Chinese students onto your higher degree programmes and PhD’s, who would come to your institution and study in the normal way.
Using a variety of possible forms of online learning, the student undertakes a postgraduate course at your institution, while remaining in China for all or part of the course through blended learning approaches. This also provides you with the opportunity to further develop relationships with the Chinese University by arranging for it to provide space and facilities for the students.
This may involve Chinese academics providing local support to students studying on a postgraduate course at your institution. Conversely, your university may provide more or less significant input into a Chinese postgraduate course. A more elaborated model involves the joint development of postgraduate courses, with the possibility of both institutions offering awards subject to satisfactory examination.
If your institution has already invested in open online resources and MOOCs, this offers a way to capitalise on your investment, using it to actively recruit postgraduate students in China.
By building an initial working relationship with Chinese academics and their students at an early stage in the students’ decision making process about where to study abroad, your university can put itself in a strong position to recruit the best students. | 2019-04-22T02:21:15 | http://www.wolearn.co.uk/?page_id=133 |

The article 5 Gut-Friendly Foods To Help You Lose Weight originally ran on Rodalenews.com.
You eat avocados for your heart and fish for your brain, but are you feeding your gut? Your gut is more than just the food processing plant for your body—it has major implications for your appetite, your immune system, and even your mood.
Renovating your gut can work wonders for your health, especially when it comes to weight loss, says Gerard Mullin, MD, author of The Good Gut Diet (published by Rodale, which also publishes Prevention.). "When I entered college I was morbidly obese. So I decided to create my own diet plan, one that was rich with fiber. I now realize that I'd developed a way of eating that was supporting the growth of friendly bacteria in my gut with prebiotic fiber-rich foods and live yogurt cultures," he says. "I realized that it wasn't my fault that I was so large. I hadn't been eating lots of junk food; I was just unknowingly eating the wrong foods. If you're overweight, it's likely not your fault either."
Don't just dump food into your stomach and call it a day. Feed your gut the right foods to enjoy some major health perks.
Fermented foods are a delicious way to eat healthy bacteria. This includes foods like miso soup, sauerkraut, and pickles (but fresh or homemade pickles, not the kind you'd find in the center aisles of your grocery store).
An all-star fermented food is kefir. "Kefirs have a lot of live bacteria," says Mullin. "The bacteria in yogurt are heat-killed, and then they add some bacteria back, so it's weaker in bacteria content—unless you make it yourself." He also recommends opting for grass-fed, if possible, since it'll be higher in anti-inflammatory fats. Plus, it's super easy to make kefir yourself!
There is so much to love when it comes to leafy greens—from bone-building arugula to attention-boosting mustard greens. Let's add one more super power to these superfoods: They're gut-healthy. "Green leafy vegetables are excellent to grow the microbiome and shift metabolism," says Mullin.
"When you think about foods for the gut, you think about foods that are fibrous," explains Mullin. That makes berries one of his top choices. "They're loaded in fiber, so that helps feed the good bacteria." Plus, he points out, their anti-inflammatory phytonutrients are disease-fighters. Blueberries are heart healthy, blackberries can help you detox, and strawberries may protect against Alzheimer's disease.
Don't let the high fat content scare you away from nuts, says Mullin. "Nuts are loaded with anti-inflammatory fats," he says. The best way to eat nuts is to use them as a swap for unhealthy, saturated fats. Instead of opening a bag of chips, opt for a handful of walnuts, a nut that Mullin says has been associated with lower rates of colon cancer.
While berries get a special shout-out, other fruits are healthy, too. Mullin is a fan of seedless red or black grapes. And if you like apples but can't stomach the fructose, give one a bake. "Some people have intolerances to apples because they're high in fructose, but if you bake it, it's full of pectin and pectin is great for your gut bacteria," he adds.
Unfortunately, the foods that are staples in the standard American diet are doing major damage. The first issue: GMOs. These plants are designed to withstand high levels of herbicide, but that means that more chemicals are showing up in your food. "The studies out there are mostly done on animals, but they're raising concerns on what GMOs do to the microbiome," says Mullin. "There's this area of uncertainty, and it's best to stay away from areas of uncertainty until proven otherwise."
Another problem with the standard American diet is that it's high in pro-inflammatory saturated fats. "A good grass-fed occasional steak, wild bison, or antibiotic-free chicken—those are all good choices for protein," says Mullin. "But the American diet is high in red meat and saturated fats; they are pro-inflammatory in nature." Also, while not a saturated fat, he includes corn oil on that list of fats to stay away from because it's pro-inflammatory, too. | 2019-04-25T19:47:12 | https://www.prevention.com/weight-loss/a20462089/gut-friendly-foods-for-weight-loss/ |

Abstract: A reference book on "the world's resources and how they are being managed." Separate chapters deal with population growth and patterns, urbanization, nuclear power, electrification in the Third World, recycling, sustainable agriculture, and the use of chemicals. An introductory chapter focuses on thresholds of change, while the final two chapters look at "Designing Sustainable Economics" and "Charting a Sustainable Course." A central theme of STATE OF THE WORLD 1987 is that "The scale of human activities threatens the habitability of the earth itself. A sustainable society satisfies its needs without diminishing the prosepects of the next generation. But by meany measures, contemporary society fails to meet this criterion." Over 80 tables and figures are included, as well a comprehensive index. | 2019-04-21T05:11:33 | https://connexions.org/CxLibrary/CX3278.htm |

Artificial intelligence cyberattacks are coming -- but what does that mean?
This doesn’t mean robots will be marching down Main Street. Rather, artificial intelligence will make existing cyberattack efforts -- things like identity theft, denial-of-service attacks and password cracking -- more powerful and more efficient. This is dangerous enough -- this type of hacking can steal money, cause emotional harm and even injure or kill people. Larger attacks can cut power to hundreds of thousands of people, shut down hospitals and even affect national security.
As a scholar who has studied AI decision-making, I can tell you that interpreting human actions is still difficult for AI and that humans don’t really trust AI systems to make major decisions. So, unlike in the movies, the capabilities AI could bring to cyberattacks -- and cyberdefense -- are not likely to immediately involve computers choosing targets and attacking them on their own. People will still have to create attack AI systems and launch them at particular targets. But nevertheless, adding AI to today’s cybercrime and cybersecurity world will escalate what is already a rapidly changing arms race between attackers and defenders.
Beyond computers’ lack of need for food and sleep -- needs that limit human hackers’ efforts, even when they work in teams -- automation can make complex attacks much faster and more effective.
AI, however, could help human cybercriminals customize attacks. Spearphishing attacks, for instance, require attackers to have personal information about prospective targets, details like where they bank or what medical insurance company they use. AI systems can help gather, organize and process large databases to connect identifying information, making this type of attack easier and faster to carry out. That reduced workload may drive thieves to launch lots of smaller attacks that go unnoticed for a long period of time-- if detected at all -- due to their more limited impact.
AI-enabled attackers will also be much faster to react when they encounter resistance, or when cybersecurity experts fix weaknesses that had previously allowed entry by unauthorized users. The AI may be able to exploit another vulnerability or start scanning for new ways into the system – without waiting for human instructions.
This could mean that human responders and defenders find themselves unable to keep up with the speed of incoming attacks. It may result in a programming and technological arms race, with defenders developing AI assistants to identify and protect against attacks -- or perhaps even AI with retaliatory attack capabilities.
Operating autonomously could lead AI systems to attack a system it shouldn’t or cause unexpected damage. For example, software started by an attacker intending only to steal money might decide to target a hospital computer in a way that causes human injury or death. The potential for unmanned aerial vehicles to operate autonomously has raised similar questions of the need for humans to make the decisions about targets.

If you follow my blog, you have read my view of Saladbox and my not so good experience. I have long forgiven and forgotten about my not so good experience with them and decided to move on, yet a box on my doorstep is a big surprise. It's like an ex who suddenly pops out of the blue and revives all the feelings you have that were long buried deep in your heart.
A pink box came in on the latter part of January. Let's just say that Saladbox's courier was too busy that they delivered their holiday box too late. Whatever reason they have, the important thing is my 3/4 Saldbox subscription came. And the redeeming factor, which made me giddy and excited all over, was it was a dainty Benefit box.
I was excited when I saw that there was a pass included inside the box. Once I saw it, I immediately booked a seat in the Greenbelt branch, but schedules were changed and slots were easily filled up, I ended up reserving a slot at the BGC branch. I have yet to use the Makeover treat, I'm finding the right occasion to give it a try.
I've incorporated serums in my daily skincare routine. I particularly love the fast absorbing formula which makes it easier for me to move to my next skincare step. There is a difference in my skin quality since I started using this serum.
The POREfessional primer is one of Benefit's bestseller. A lot of beauty enthusiasts swear by it, testifying that it indeed minimizes the appearance of pores and gives your face the perfect blank canvass prior to make-up. I have not tried using any type of primer for my skin. I have a dry-sensitive type of skin which makes it hard for me to use a mattifying primer.
Both Benefit mascaras are superb. They effectively open up my eyes by revealing my sparse lashes. The pigment and fibre is not as hard to remove as the Maybelline mascaras, which was very convenient for me.
Overall, I was over-the-top happy with what I got. I'll share my SaladboxXBenefit Workshop experience on a separate post. I still have one undelivered box from Saladbox, but I'm not getting my hopes up or expecting anything from them. If I didn't get the last box, it's fine for I already have forgiven them and moved on. I'll just charge it to experience. If I DID get something, then great! At least they tried to deliver even though it was a year too late.
What items in the Saladbox Holiday box did you like? | 2019-04-23T00:46:23 | http://www.carolranas.com/2016/04/another-box-came-saladboxs-holiday-box.html |
Bowcock & Pursaill have been involved in bringing the former Spode pottery site at the heart of Stoke-on-Trent back to life.
The development of the factory off Elenora Street marks a new chapter in its history after pottery production ended there in 2008 and is now regarded as a brilliant example of heritage buildings being used for new purposes.
Working alongside entrepreneur Jeff Nash, Bowcock & Pursaill property specialist Joy Hancock has been involved in the legal paperwork required to help Jeff create a popular café, 26-bedroom hotel (the Potbank) complete with bridal suite, and an events space on site which are already proving a hit with visitors and residents alike.
Joy said: “I’ve been working with Jeff for around five years now, helping him with his 999-year lease agreement from Stoke-on-Trent City Council for the site.
“It has involved extensive negotiations between Jeff and the Council as we exchanged on this matter back in November 2016, and subsequently completed the 999-year lease just before Christmas 2018, following completion of major renovation works.
“Jeff is extremely ambitious and is bringing interesting and new ideas and opportunities to The Potteries. Spode is just one of several sites he has already bought and developed in and around the area, but it’s certainly one of the most significant.
“From a legal perspective the volume of work has been quite extensive. I have been involved in a lot of the paperwork including the purchase of the sites, drawing up any leases Jeff subsequently grants, together with funding arrangements as required in order to facilitate the development of the site.
“Sections of the factory have been sub-let on long term leases to third parties, parts then leased back, involving a hierarchy of head, under and sub leases.
Jeff said: “Joy has supported the legal paperwork across all of the sites I now have, but the Spode one was more involved as I acquired Spode from the council and developed the site with a financial partner under an agreement while waiting for planning permission for large parts of it.
“My financial partner took ownership of the upper floors at Spode, which we lease back, and underneath that there have been loans from the banks and quite complex transactions, so I needed someone very experienced in all the financing options.
“The Potbank hotel opened in June 2018 and it’s aimed at providing medium term accommodation. There are kitchen facilities in the rooms and it’s quirky, providing a home from home for itinerant people including contractors, students and employees, who are coming in and out of the area from elsewhere. | 2019-04-21T16:17:38 | https://www.bowcockpursaill.co.uk/news/solicitors-breathe-life-into-historic-site/ |
The emergence of single travel token over the next few years is probably the most exciting development for passengers hoping to fast track through the airport. This could eliminate the need for multiple travel documents without passengers having to share their personal data.
SITA Lab is researching how using virtual or digital passports in the form of a single secure token on mobile and wearable devices could reduce complexity, cost and liability around document checks during the passenger journey.
SITA’s innovative research imagines passengers creating a verifiable ‘token’ on their mobile phone which contains biometric and other personal data. In this vision of future travel, no matter where in the world you go any authority can simply scan your face and scan your device to verify you are an authorized traveler. This can be done without all these agencies ever controlling or storing your biometric details.
In an early demo of these concepts, SITA Lab are using blockchain technology which allows ‘privacy by design’ so that passenger data can be secure, encrypted, tamper-proof and unusable for any other purpose. At the same time, blockchain technology eliminates the need for a single authority to own, process or store the data. The crypto-led computer science of blockchain provides a network of trust, where the source and history of the data is verifiable by everyone. | 2019-04-22T06:34:24 | https://www.sita.aero/innovation/sita-lab/identity-management/the-single-travel-token |

We've really got to thank filmmaker Mark Landsman. Not only did his 2010 documentary Thunder Soul put the story of Houston's legendary Kashmere Stage Band on to the silver screen, but it also helped revive the band itself.
After reforming with a handful of Kashmere High School alumni and students to promote the film at festivals and other events two years ago, the mighty KSB is now having too much fun to quit. You can catch the former teen titans of jazz/funk Saturday night at Fitzgerald's, and you should.
While Landsman has helped greatly to spread the story of Dr. Conrad "Prof" Johnson's musical vision and legacy, the songs that spawned a thousand breaks remain largely unknown to many, even in the Kashmere Gardens 'hood that spawned the soul nearly 40 years ago. Luckily, crate-digging isn't dead yet.
Because the late, great Prof believed so strongly in education, Rocks Off has here assembled a septet of essential Kashmere Stage Band cuts to help educate our readers on the high-schoolers' indelible impact on funk soul and hip-hop.
The quiz begins as soon as the bell rings at Fitz on Saturday.
The term "thunder soul" describes the Kashmere Stage Band just as perfectly as can be. That power blowing out of that big brass section can't be faked. Thirty-eight years later, it's still stunning that these solos are coming from high-school kids.
6. "Super Strut Pt. 1"
The drumming that opens and closes "Super Strut Pt. 1" is the kind of beat that helped make KSB an essential piece of wax in any B-boy's record collection. A funky guitar solo provides the Kangol hat on top of this fat gold rope of brass and snare.
If this song can't get you dancin' in your seat, Kashmere Stage Band probably just ain't for you. In addition to some pretty fantastic horn runs, the students got to put their voices on wax for this track. Three decades later, we're still talkin' 'bout the Zero Point.
4. "$$ Kash Register $$"
Cha-ching! Now this is the sound of top-notch Texas funk. The wah-wah pedal, the slap bass, and the unstoppable hi-hat roll out the perfect strutting pace for the smoothest high-school horns you're ever likely to hear. This track is money, indeed.
As you can hear in the video above, "Super Bad" provides a big, energetic platform for any number of terrific solos. When you're blessed with an embarrassment of talent, it's kind of hard not to show it off. Particularly when you're 16 years old.
"All Praises" is another uptempo showstopper scientifically formulated to move your body. The title might sound like gospel music, but you won't find this tune in any hymnal. Nevertheless, there's no denying that the Kashmere Stage Band has been filled with the spirit on this one.
A nimble bass line and streetwise drum breaks are the hallmarks of the band's namesake tune. It's the perfect blend of funk, soul and big band punctuated by trumpet and trombone blasts. "Kashmere" is the real deal, and there's a good chance we'll hear it again on Saturday. | 2019-04-23T04:31:30 | https://www.houstonpress.com/music/pop-quiz-study-up-on-the-tunes-of-texas-teen-titans-6496229 |
Innovative Ways to Stop Climate Change!
Here at Ben & Jerry’s, we’re constantly inspired by those clever cookies fighting the climate battle each and every day. Yes, climate change can be a pretty gloomy topic, and of course, as with any complex problem, the solution is never going to be simple… but don’t give up! Did you know that switching to renewables and ridding our world of fossil fuels aren’t the only solutions out there? No? Well here are some innovative and inspiring alternatives to get you thinking!
It may be slimier than your average slug, but let’s not underestimate the power of seaweed. Did you know that this green substance has the ability to act as a carbon sink? Think of it as the tree’s underwater cousin. According to Tim Flannery, an Australian scientist, we only need to cover 9% of the world’s oceans with seaweed farms in order to draw out all of the CO2 from our atmosphere! And it doesn’t stop there – in addition to this, this seaweed would produce enough biomethane to write off our reliance on fossil fuels AND attract enough prawns and other shellfish to feed 10 billion people… now that’s pretty awesome!
Did you know that, worldwide, 5% of man-made emissions come from cement production? Finding a replacement to cut these emissions would make a massive impact… and guess what? Carbon negative concretes do just that! Not only are these concretes more durable, flexible, cheaper and stronger, they also absorb CO2! What’s not to like?!
Good news coffee lovers… a group of Korean researchers have found a way a pretty cool way to use up all those leftover grounds. By using the grounds to store atmospheric methane, this could be a highly effective solution in helping to combat the mass of greenhouse gases polluting our world… especially when we think about just how powerful this gas is – over 60 times that of CO2! | 2019-04-19T05:22:46 | https://www.benjerry.co.uk/whats-new/2016/innovative-ways-to-stop-climate-change |

Quote: The name COUME OUARNEDE means a somber & mystic place in the Pyrenees, where we can find one of the deepest caves in Europe. This is the ritualistic archaïc project of Yan Arexis, percussionist & co-founder member of well know French pagan folk band Stille Volk, founder & drummer of Sus Scrofa (first pagan black band in France, one of the first in Europe and in the world) & founder of La Breiche (Archaïc Pyrenean folk) and also co-founder of ritual act Cober Ord.
«Celui qui vide les arbres» (The One Who Empty the Trees) is a natural archaïc & ritualistic music, a soundscape of high frozen mountains, deep & dark Pyrenean forest. And this is more than just music. COUME OUARNEDE was born like the music from the first years of humanity, when music was sacred, dedicated to establish contact with Mother Nature divinity, in a magical function. Like the music 10 000 years ago the album was recorded with stones, wood and traditional percussions.
Quote from label: "The band makes use of several atypical instruments (Theremin, church organ, piano, trumpet, violin…) and blends various musical styles including Black, Symphonic, Death and Doom Metal as well as Ambient music. CRÉATURES’s main influences are King Diamond, Tartaros and Notre Dame.It tells the story of a twelfth-century countryside village getting attacked by terrifying monsters. As in opera, all the characters of the tale are being enacted by different singers who are first person narrators to help the music tell the story. The album comes in a 16-page booklet digipack containing a painting and six medieval-inspired drawings made specifically for this release".

Occult and dissonant ritualistic Black Metal.
- Comes with printed inner lyric sleeve.
Quote from label: "The album is a stepping stone for the band's long and troubled existence, the only other material released so far being the EP "Tales of Eternity", in 2002. This absence of materials from a band formed in 1999 is mainly due to the hiatus that the band was in since 2003 until 2011.
On this album you can expect a healthy dose of old school melodic death metal, colored by influences that range from progressive and doom metal all the way to black metal.
Recorded, produced and mastered by Robert Cotoros (Hteththemeth, The Bipolar Disorder Project), the album features 7 long tracks and can be pre-ordered on the Bandcamp page of the Transylvanian label Loud Rage Music.
