It’s all happening! Tomorrow I depart on a bus from an undisclosed downtown NYC location at 5am with approx. 30 other peeps I don’t really know to co-create what could be the next big start up, app, world changing product, you name it – the possibilities are endless! Over the next couple days we’ll cruise to Nashville, hacking along the way to develop our dream companies and products all for a chance to win big at the pitch competition on Monday. Oh, and did I mention there’s 6 other buses leaving from different cities across the US (even Mexico City!)?Plus NYC is on a winning streak for two years in a row, so no pressure or anything.
How did I even find out about this? Pretty serendipitously. It all started with a chance meeting at the WIRED Business conference in May. A cool chic I met referred me to her company site, which led me down a rabbit hole of other similarly cool sites focused on entrepreneurship and innovation. I stumbled upon the StartUp Bus and thought, why not apply, not knowing much about it except that it looks like the adventure of a lifetime. Soon after applying, the WIRED #girlboss replied to my bus application saying she’s not only a bus alumni but also happens to be conducting this years NYC trip! Meant to be? Surely.
The more I learned about the bus and story behind it all the more I realized there’s nothing more perfect for me to be doing RIGHT NOW. Lately I’ve felt such a strong influx of creative energy, almost restless at times, pushing me to create and strategize everywhere I can – I’ve got to channel this energy somewhere! And how perfect is this – the bus is divided into entrepreneurial types: hipsters (designers), hustlers (business savvy magic makers) and hackers (developers, programmer gurus)….Guess what I am?
Por favor, stalk me all you want + follow our adventures via the Bus’ live stream!

My Friday the 13th started out in Williamsburg’s McCarren Park where Northside Fest set up its home base for a week-long South By Southwest-style conference on innovation, film and music. Complete with after parties and concerts galore over the entire week, the festival is in its fourth year running much to the delight of musicians, innovators, digital media nerds, start up gurus, marketers and entrepreneurs alike.
This year it literally felt like the East Coast hipster cousin of Austin’s SXSW had officially landed in Williamsburg. My friends over at Small Girls PR hooked me up with a badge to attend the Innovation portion of the program, where I hung out all day Friday. The panels were creatively situated nearby one another with main attractions at the Wythe Hotel, Brooklyn Brewery, Kinfolk Studios and the trade show at McCarren Park. Lucky for all attendees Mable’s Smokehouse served up a delicious complimentary BBQ lunch midday Friday. The BBQ never tasted so good but in hindsight might have been a precarious choice for conference-goers expected to pay attention and not immediately need a power nap.
The panel “Preparing to Pivot” showcased inspiring entrepreneurs talking about their experiences with changing directions and sometimes starting over along their start-up quests. Many spoke to the fact that failure and making mistakes are just part of the start up game. If you really believe in something and are willing to put the effort into it, you don’t ever give up. On the flip side, they also spoke to the importance of knowing when its time to give up on a particular direction and change your strategy to stay afloat. Did you know AirBnB used Craigslist at one point as an early customer acquisition strategy?
Zappos’ presentation on “Throwing Out the Organizational Chart” provided an overview of holocracy. To better foster innovation, Zappos suggests that corporations will do well to model the information-sharing and communication styles offered by cities’ infrastructure. I almost understood the idea, but must admit I might never truly get it until I experience holacracy first-hand. Talk about new age-y organizational style. We’ll see what Zappos rolls out with results-wise this year following a more full implementation of holacracy. Perhaps their case study will prove fruitful for pushing other companies to adopt new communication mechanisms and management (or lack there of) structures. What about hashtags in employee titles (i.e. #title) to symbolize the fluid-nature of each position’s description? Sign me up.
My favorite panel of the day was a fireside chat (without a fire) with TechCrunch’s Anthony Ha and GE’s Executive Director of Global Brand Marketing, Linda Boff–“GE’s Secrets Revealed: Their Top 5 Marketing Innovations.” Did you know GE was the first brand on Vine? I appreciated Linda’s candid honesty about how she likes to be promiscuous with advertising and marketing agencies in search of the best storytellers. She made a nod to agencies focused on doing what they do really well, and not getting lost in the crowd of big agencies trying to do many things just-okay.
GE’s secrets turned out to not be so secret after all, but they did provoke some great insights. Be first, be human as a brand, tell a GREAT story, be helpful, and measure success by engagement. All good tips, especially the encouragement throughout to be uniquely useful and stay true to the brand’s integrity. I’m already excited for next year–expect the tech, entrepreneurship and innovation elements to be bigger than ever and attract tech stars from all over the map!

Why All The #Hashtags?
I can’t remember the first time I used a hash tag but I think at that moment I sensed my life would never be the same. Suddenly I felt like I was speaking the language I was always meant to speak. The world finally made sense, talking back to me one abbreviated thought at a time. Immediately, I was in love.
I was super late to the Twitter party because, quite frankly, I wanted to stick with what I felt good at (who ever thought you could be “good at” social media?). When Facebook enabled hashtagging, it was game over. I was off to the races. Armed with a penchant for penning all-too-lengthy mantras, I even started taking them out of posts and using them straight up in my text messages. Friends beware: a new era is upon us.
Somethings are just better communicated in short code. Like Twitter’s 140 characters, hashtags command a certain simplicity and straightforwardness that might otherwise get lost in, I don’t know, a complete sentence or narrative. Try tagging old vintage photos of people’s families or friends as little kids with things like #newswag, #thuglife, #stuntin, #hyphy and don’t even get me started on where that could really lead. At times it can get pretty #treal.
For all you late bloomers out there, don’t fret, there is help for optimizing your hashtagging! To become more seasoned in what will most certainly continue dominating social, get out there and practice. It’s meant to be fun. Get creative and try communicating with people in new ways. That’s what this is all about. Find new things that interest you using images and posts you’ve hashtagged in the past and see what other people are tagging similarly. You might be surprised at what you find and what new connections arise. What is your mantra? What are you known for? Claim your brand. At the end of the day, social is all about building connections between the people and ideas that inspire us. Welcome to the party.

My first social media experience happened with my 6th grade introduction to AIM. My screen names were so ahead of the times! There’s no doubt that my super fast typing skills developed over late night group chat sessions with all my middle school friends, typing fast while also using alternating capital and lower case letters for style. Using names like “LiToLePrAkHaN” and “SsHoMeSlIcEsS” was my m.o. and it soon led me to get into web design–although I didn’t know it at the time. What prompted me to get so invested in a personal site at that age? I’m not so sure, but my first site http://www.shupz.cjb.net was really a feat to behold. I took it down around hight school because it just wasn’t the cool thing to do anymore. I either outgrew my interest or became a slave to what I thought was the cooler thing to do. I think the latter is true.
I reached some point in my adolescence where I was embarrassed by my nerdy history of making sites and learning to code. I wish I remembered how to get it back. I’d give anything to reminisce about the hilarious history of middle school, my site’s “shout-outs,” the “trademarks” page and the funky layouts borrowed from the endless Expage forums. I don’t know why I was embarrassed. Website building and coding late at night while snacking and typing lightening speed messages on AIM suddenly didn’t fit in with the party girl persona I tried to cultivate, in fact is really cramped my style altogether.
I wish I felt more encouraged to follow that passion and listen to the inner drive I felt to create things using this tech format I’ve always felt so comfortable with. I jokingly say I could’ve created Facebook had I stuck with it and maybe took steps to learn more advanced skills in the arena. For whatever reason that just wasn’t my path. I am grateful to feel a return full-circle to that time when I didn’t care so much about what others thought and just followed my instinct to create. Putting content out there without a brand or company backing me is a new feeling, but for now I’m just going with it. And for now it feels like the right thing, so I’m listening up.
Are there others who had an early introduction to coding or website design but didn’t pursue it because it doesn’t seem cool enough? Luckily I think that paradigm is shifting to one in which coding and creating and having your own start-up is becoming a highly desirable path, and not just one you can easily teach in college. Learning the tools and skills needed to succeed in the new tech economy is also becoming more accessible, but those who can’t afford multi-thousand dollar degree program or coding intensives are still facing barriers to entry. New technology and the internet of things have helped democratize so much opportunity across all industries, namely education. So far I’m proud of my generation for helping push things forward, but I still wonder if there is more we can do to help bring everyone into the fold. Are coding and web design becoming cool again? Are kids showing an interest earlier on and sticking with it because they feel supported? I want to be a part of the movement towards greater inclusion and opportunity for all. Maybe I am a part of it just by putting myself out there like this.

What’s in a Klout Score?
The Klout Score is a number between 1-100 that represents your influence. The more influential you are, the higher your Klout Score.
First off, did you know Barack Obama has a 99?
What is Influence?
Influence is the ability to drive action. When you share something on social media or in real life and people respond, that’s influence. The more influential you are, the higher your Klout Score.
When Klout first came on the scene I was skeptical as to whether it was actually going to be helpful or effective at measuring status/impact/reach. The longer it’s been on the market I’ve seen how it actually addresses a need felt across all social channels that isn’t clearly addressed by other mediums.
Let’s be honest, everyone is dying to know where they stand, especially in comparison to all their friends and everyone else. There’s something satisfying about knowing where you fit in, how you’re ranked and how much of an impact you’re having. Is it simply explained as a human desire or evolutionary dependency? Social media has definitely set into motion new social norms and even vocabulary built into our everyday life–but has it also reinforced more wide scale dependency on affirmation and recognition?
I think we all know the answer to that question. It relates to recent discussion about selfies and the obsession with getting positive feedback on photo and content posts. There’s even a new song about it. I can see where the argument arises but I for one am a huge proponent of the positive opportunity offered by social media to help empower consumers and businesses alike by bridging the gap between the buyers and decision makers. The same goes for politics. Consider how digital and social media impacted Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.
The millennial generation is digital and social, and there’s no going back. The challenge remains for brands and political governance in how to best interact and engage with the new constituency defined by everything-social.

That’s what comes to mind when I think of the impact I want to create. I want to work with clients to make their visions and passions a reality. I want to leverage what I’ve learned in corporate advertising to help entrepreneurs and start ups effectively share their message and value with the people they want to reach. I want to live in a world where everyone wins, where everyone can benefit from lifting one another up towards success and fulfillment.
I want to help bridge the resource gap while working for people I believe in and whose energy and drive I feed off of. Nothing fills me more than sharing in the excitement of launching a new idea and innovative strategy for something that could fundamentally change the way the world works. I’ve always been an optimist, sometimes to a painful degree. I believe in people’s absolutely limitless capacity to create a better world, and I clearly see how social media and digital strategy can play a central role in making that world a reality.

It is customary practice among many employers to perform searches online when vetting job applicants. The information pulled up by search engines such as Google can be seen not only by you, but future bosses -- and so if there is anything unprofessional, this has the potential to scupper your career prospects. Run a search on your name and see what appears, and don't forget to also pull up image searches, as they can link to websites or accounts you've forgotten about. Understanding your basic digital footprint is the first step in taking control of it.
2. Deactivate old social media accounts and check privacy settings.
MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google+ are social media websites that can be mined by potential employers for personal information. If privacy settings are not at their highest, this could mean viewers can access pictures, posts and status updates best kept within your private life.
One thing to remember is that the Web often forgets about context -- and so Tweets can be misconstrued, events from years ago can end up hampering your prospects, and your profile may not show you to be the type of person a company would want to hire.
In relation to accounts you actively use, check your privacy settings. For Facebook, head over to account settings through the top-right button, and then select 'privacy' from the menu on the left. You can then decide who can see what information is posted -- and whether you can be looked up based on your email address, phone number or search engines. You can also use another handy tool from your profile page to see what others view, by selecting the '...' button and choosing 'View as..'.
Twitter users, click your profile avatar in the top right of the Twitter.com screen, and select 'Settings.' From this menu, you can make your profile private or change a range of basic account options.
If you want to be completely hidden on social media, consider using a different surname.
Honesty may not be the best policy if old social media accounts hold information you'd prefer to keep quiet. In addition, some services do not allow you to delete accounts -- instead, permit only for accounts to be "deactivated." In these cases, consider changing your name, email address and uploading an innocuous profile picture -- as well as deleting as much information as possible -- before deactivation.
If you've conducted a Google search and found pictures linked to old accounts you'd rather not have displayed, hiding your accounts may help in eventual refreshes. It will take time for search engines to stop pulling up these images, but the sooner you tweak old accounts, the better.
If websites have posted public information about you, contacting webmasters may be the only option to remove this information. Send them an email or give them a call, and explain what, and why, you need something removed.
Mailing lists are part of a digital trail leading back to you, and unsubscribing can help break these connections -- as well as decluttering your inbox.
There are services online which require you to register and submit an email address before use. Creating a secondary email account for these websites -- which may insist upon sending you marketing emails and sales pitches on occasion -- can help keep your footprint clean.
The 'right to be forgotten' ruling recently enforced in Europe means that search engines can be made to remove links to publicly available news items from their search results. While Google has appealed the ruling, many links have been removed -- although this has resulted in the creation of lists to de-indexed pages in its stead -- due to the belief that irrelevant and inaccurate information gives a data subject the right to request removal from a search engine data controller.
Do you still use eBay, Amazon and other retail accounts? If not, consider deleting your accounts -- and financial data with them. We hear often of cyberattacks on major retailers and services, and if you no longer use your account, there's no need to keep sensitive data stored on company servers.
Since the NSA revelations and Edward Snowden's disclosures on the surveillance activities of the United States, there has been an explosion in interest based around private browsing and ways to curb spying. While both Apple and Google recently revealed they would boost basic levels of encryption in their services, a number of simple ways to become less trackable have been on the market for some time.
It needs to be kept in mind that despite some start-up claims and businesses jumping on the anti-NSA bandwagon, no solution is going to be 100 percent surveillance-proof. However, for the average home user, Microsoft's Internet Explorer InPrivate Browsing, Chrome's Incognito mode, and Firefox's Private Window can limit trackable data -- such as cookies -- being scraped by services as you browse.
Although extreme, if you have the need, wiping all of the aforementioned services and deleting your email inbox can be the best way to remove your footprint. Very little is ever truly forgotten, but falsifying social media account names, locking up security settings tightly, deleting email inboxes and e-commerce accounts will help wipe your presence from the Web.

All throughout the month of September you can earn big bonuses at Swagbucks, the rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you're probably doing online already, like searching, watching videos, discovering deals, and taking surveys.
Then you take those points and exchange them for gift cards to places like Amazon, Starbucks, Walmart, Target, or PayPal cash.
When you sign up through me this month, you can earn a $5 bonus!
2. Earn 300 SB total before 10/1/17. You'll get a $3 (300 SB) bonus for it!
3. If you spend at least $25 through Swagbucks Shop* you'll get another $2 (200 SB) bonus on top of the cash back you'll get from shopping.
If you have some shopping to do online, just go to Swagbucks first and visit the store through them. It doesn't cost you anything extra, but you'll get SB points for every dollar you spend (on top of the bonus)!
That's it. It's super easy, and yes, Swagbucks is for real.
I use it myself, and I've earned a grand total of 33,7925 SB so far (That's $3,379.25!) - and bought myself all sorts of electronics, including a big screen TV, a gazebo for my back yard, a 2nd hand truck, and so much more!

Mortgage Professionals are standing by!
A graduated payment mortgage is a loan where the payment increases each year for a predetermined amount of time (such as 5 or 10 years), then becomes fixed for the remaining duration of the loan.
When interest rates are high, borrowers can use a graduated payment mortgage to increase their chances of qualifying for the loan because the initial payment is less. The downside of opting for an smaller initial payment is that the interest owed increases and the payment shortfall from the initial years of the loan is then added on to the loan, potentially leading to a situation called "negative amortization." Negative amortization occurs when the loan payment for any period is less than the interest charged over that period, resulting in an increase in the outstanding balance of the loan.

Don’t Fear The Reaper: Panda Bear faces death on his...
He tells me this over a pint in an east London pub, where the soundsystem around us is blasting safe indie rock song after safe indie rock song; their formulaic thud is a hilarious backdrop to a conversation that meanders and lurches almost as much as Lennox’s songs. The Animal Collective percussionist is on a whole other plane.
Among those elements are death, fatherhood, disease, human nature, animal nature, and riddles. All of these seeds began as concrete moments in Lennox’s life – the day he learned his father was ill, the night he worked on an impossible riddle with his daughter, the days he spent making music in a garage by a Portuguese beach – but branched out to become something as impossibly intricate and yet totally familiar as an old knotted tree.
What things did you feel like you were working through when making these songs?
I feel like the usage of the drum breaks was kind of a gamble for me. Even though it’s a type of music I really like – hip-hop, r’n’b – I don’t think I ever felt like I had figured out a way of entering into that room where I wasn’t just making some kind of lame copy of something else, something that felt like a costume or felt artificial. So after I started making a couple of these tracks and utilising these breaks, I feel like I found a way of dealing with them that still felt genuine.
Lyrically speaking, too, it was a mission of mine to feel like I was talking about something bigger than myself, or having a perspective that was more global or universal. In the past it was sort of my MO to use introspection as a tool to express something that hopefully somebody else could find useful. I guess having children had something to do with this change. I feel like introspection is good in general, it can be a fruitful exercise, but there’s a threshold past which introspection seems to transform into self-obsession or narcissism or a self-centred enterprise. So I felt like I was kind of done with that.
In death, you basically chose the most universal theme you could possibly have chosen to be the crux of the record. But it’s not totally serious, there’s lightness and humour to the way you deal with it. How did that idea become central to this project?
It was more a theme of change, particularly in the context of an identity, and how often when something in life happens to us that’s really intense or dramatic, the image we have of ourselves before and after that event can often be quite different. In my experience, after having gone through something like this – whether it’s a close family member dying, or an intense relationship that’s over – there’s something about the way we see ourselves; there’s something about us that either goes away or dies when something like that happens.
There’s actually no song [on the album] that’s about death in any literal sense. But I like that the title was presenting something dark and intense, something that we might normally shy away from, we don’t really want to think about it or talk about it. But when it’s put with the “Panda Bear” and presented in a way where the two are working together, it felt kind of funny. It kind of felt like taking something serious and intense and putting it in a package that was much easier to deal with.
I felt like the death theme really only presents itself explicitly on ‘Davy Jones’ Locker’. just with the title and that sense of submersion. That felt to me like the one place on the album where it’s explicit.
It kind of is, yeah.
But it still feels removed – there’s no words, no narrative.
Before we had inserted that piece of music into the sequence, I felt like on maybe one or two songs – certainly on ‘Acid Wash’ [the album closer], there’s kind of a weird seafaring vibe. It wasn’t intentional, but it felt like there was a strident, seafaring, sea shanty kind of vibe to it. So once I knew I wanted that little piece of music in the album and we needed a title for it, since I’m kind of an obsessive about symmetry I wanted to bring the seafaring towards to the beginning of the record to kind of balance it out. And I just like that the title immediately suggests being deep at the bottom of the ocean, totally pitch dark. I liked where it put my brain at the beginning of the album.
And it’s another euphemistic way of referring to death.
Right. There’s a lot of symbology all over the album. I was really into riddles and illusions and tricks of phrase, and I wanted to put little clues to various things throughout the album. So there’s a lot of dogs, there’s the seafaring thing, there’s obviously death (but it’s not really death), animals and human beings – there’s a lot of reference to those two, as being diametrically opposed. There’s a bunch of crap in there.
What do you mean you were really interested in riddles and illusions?
Well, originally I wanted all the songs to be riddles. Literal riddles, with the words. But once I’d set up all the songs, and the singing parts had to specifically fit into the music, I found it too difficult in the end to really craft riddles out of the words.
What you were saying about wanting to make something that’s universal and not too inward-looking, that’s kind of a principle of riddles.
I would liken it to an image on a computer that’s made out of pixels; if you took out 80% of the pixels, that’s kind of what the lyrics are. There’s a picture of what it means in my brain, but say I put it here, then I took out 80% of the pixels and gave it to you, your mind would interpolate it and fill in the gaps, and probably create a kind of similar picture, but also it would be pretty different. I like that.
One of the themes I felt like I picked up on was determinism versus choices.
Uh huh, choices is big.
What was the thinking behind that?
I think it comes, again, from looking inward, noticing all the impulses that I have that are not super helpful for other people. The nasty impulses, the darker side of my identity and my being, and how I assume that’s probably in pretty much everybody – these ways of acting selfishly or our tendency to do things that benefit us, whether we’re aware of that happening or not. And the sort of tempering of those impulses and the way we sort of guide that process, and the decisions we make in order to do that.
There’s also this sonic theme of kind of animalistic or more “natural” sounds battling against more digital, sci-fi sounds.
I think there is a kind of wrestling of a more animal, aggressive element and a more slick, tech vibe, which I would describe as a more human element, in a way. I wanted it to feel really raw, in a sense, but also polished.
You wrote and recorded the album in a lot of different places, were there any that were particularly influential?
It’s a little bit hard to say. I feel like as a creative person, you can’t help but have your environment. You sort of act as a filter for all this stuff. You might have a vision of what you want to make, but whether you try to or not, all this stuff, the environment, stuff you think about, your relationships, you leave little crumbs of it in stuff that you make. So I’m sure that all the places that I made these songs in somehow leaked into the songs, but it’s really difficult for me to trace the lines exactly of how that influence happened. But I made the stuff in so many different places – I had a garage that I made a lot of the stuff in, near the beach across the river in Lisbon where we lived for a while. I think we moved house like four times while I was making this album. I started making this stuff in Texas, when we were recording the last Animal Collective album. So the diversity of environments I was in I would assume had something to do with the diversity of the sounds – certainly more than Tomboy, I’d argue more than Person Pitch, it’s a more dynamic sounding thing. It’s more quilty and hodge-podge.
Sounds like there was so much going on for you during the making of this record, you’ve already mentioned having children and moving house four times. Are those the kind of life changes you were talking about trying to tackle earlier?
Yeah, I mean again there wasn’t a whole lot of, ‘this happened to me so I’m gonna write about that.’ There’s a kind of fictional element to this stuff that wasn’t really present for me before. Songs would be inspired by stuff that didn’t necessarily happen to me. Having said that, I feel like having children was a big one for me, in terms of shifting perspectives, not only on music but on a lot of things. You spend your whole life as the focus of survival for yourself; you go to school to get a job, to make money, to put food on your table; and then if you have kids, the same system exists, but suddenly the focus shifts from you to this other thing. That change was very influential.
Because as you were saying before, total introspection can spill over into narcissism, and I guess when you have kids you’re just not narcissistic any more.
You can’t be, right? It’s a humbling moment when you realise that the purpose of your life isn’t what you thought it was. That sounds bad, but you’re just not the centre of the universe for yourself any more. That’s a tough bridge to cross, in a way. But ultimately, it was a very good thing for me. But any transformation, in my experience, any sort of dramatic transformation is often kinda painful. This one was no different.
I really love ‘Tropic of Cancer’. What does that song mean to you?
I feel like that’s the most obvious example where it starts in a very personal place and then just expands to a new perspective. The song’s really about disease. It starts with an anecdote about a conversation I had with my parents when they first told me my father was sick. He had a brain tumour. They were really weird about it. It was an effect of being in shock for them, I guess – they were really casual, not like jokey, but really strange. I remember thinking, this is really a big deal, why are you guys being so weird with me about it? So the song starts with me telling that story, but by the end of the song, it just really becomes about disease in a general sense, and trying to be sympathetic towards disease as far as it being something that’s just trying to propagate and continue its own existence, just like any other living being is doing. Animals, people, we’re all just trying to keep our genes going, keep ourselves surviving. A disease is doing the same thing. So it’s kind of trying to forgive disease in that context, I guess.
I guess you never know how people are going to react under extreme circumstances like those, and it can be really strange or surprising.
It’s really true. As much as we like to be like, ‘I would punch that guy in the face!’ or whatever, we get to that moment and we just freeze.
Is the process of making this music quite instinctive for you; do you try not to over-think it?
I’d say the first third of the whole songwriting process for me is strictly mental. At the beginning of it, I’ll just daydream about stuff, think about what I want to do, think about what kind of equipment I want to use, how I’m gonna use the equipment, how I’m gonna perform it live, what i means to me in the context of the music in that moment, how it relates to the wave of popular music. And then, after the plan is in place, I try to remove the mental side as much as I can. Just because I feel like it doesn’t do much good after that.
I was listening to a podcast with Lorne Michaels recently, who’s the longtime producer of Saturday Night Live. It’s kind of famous for the writers pulling all-nighters and working like crazy, apparently it’s a really intense schedule – and he was saying that he liked that the work was so intense that people didn’t really have time to consider whether it was good or not, they didn’t have a whole lot of extra time to deliberate on decisions that they made. It was more like an instinctual spitting out of stuff. He argued that the critical faculty can overwhelm the creative faculty, and I think that’s absolutely true. You can think so hard about if something is good or not that you’ll kind of just kill it completely.
Do you throw yourself into the same kind of full-on routine?
Oh, no. I wish I could say that I did. I used to prefer to work from midnight til about five in the morning, and probably because at that time I was the most exhausted and not sharp enough to really consider if the thing was valuable or not, I would just do it. I think that’s also why smoking weed is a thing I enjoy. It’s like, if I’m stoned I don’t really think like that. I feel like I’m better at being objective in that state of mind. More purely objective. Things either work for me on a very base level or they don’t.
How do you know when to step away from something?
Again, it’s a feeling thing more than a mental thing. When I listen to it, if you think of a river going down a hill, if there’s no obstructions to that river, that’s when it feels like it’s done to me. If there’s a hitch in the way, if that energy wave has an interruption for me, then it’s not quite done.
Can you tell me a riddle?
And that’s kind of what you’re hoping people will do with the Grim Reaper?
Yeah. Exactly.

Finding the best voice system to support your business phone needs can be difficult. There are multiple options available, each with pros and cons. How do you decide? It starts with understanding what types of systems are out there.
Each voice system is a little different from the next. From a simple voice solution to an advanced, customizable systems, it’s important to understand what your options are. At Midco, we support voice systems for any size business – from one line to several. I’m going to walk you through the three main voice solutions that can help you run your business.
Digital phone lines are great for small businesses with one to four lines that require a simple, low-cost solution. With this solution, businesses will have access to Midco’s network and would source their preferred equipment independently.
We typically match this solution with small restaurants, who want a simple voice solution for one location with one or two lines.
Hosted VoIP is an ideal solution for small and medium-size businesses (five to 60 employees) that require more functionality and mobility – with no ownership or responsibility. With Hosted VoIP, businesses not only have access to Midco’s wholly owned, private network, but also receive all required desk phone equipment and enhanced features such as call park and forwarding.
Hosted VoIP is a full-service solution available for multiple types of businesses, but we’ve seen great success with automotive dealers and mechanics – such as Northtown Auto in Yankton, SD. They wanted something easy-to-use, yet with customizable call routing so their reps could be available anytime.
Trunk lines provide access to Midco’s voice network through session initiation protocol (SIP) or T1 technology. This is a great solution for large businesses (61+ lines). Businesses that use trunk lines would work with another vendor to provide the private branch exchange (PBX) and other phone equipment. All functionality would originate from the third-party PBX and will vary depending upon model and cost.
SIP lines are an ideal solution for our banking and financial customers with multiple lines and multiple locations, that already have purchased their own equipment, but want to connect with a reliable, trusted network – like ours.
Now that you know what systems are available, it’s time to evaluate your business needs to determine the right fit. Here are a few questions you should ask during your own needs analysis – with a few helpful answers describing which voice solution solves each need.
Do we want to own the equipment?
Digital phone and trunk lines require equipment purchase and PBX (for trunk lines) from a third party. Hosted VoIP solution offers all necessary equipment without the burden of ownership.
Do we have mobile or remote employees?
If yes, Hosted VoIP’s Softphone ensures calls can be answered wherever your employees are via cellphone.
What functionality is critical to run our business – and what would be a nice to have?
If minimal functionality is needed and you simply need to answer single calls, digital lines are probably the best solution for you. If you require specific routing options, auto attendant or other sophisticated functions, Hosted VoIP or trunk lines with a third-party PBX will be more beneficial.
How many lines will we need?
The more lines you have, the more likely you’ll need sophisticated functionality options – if not for now, but for the future as your business grows. Digital lines are beneficial for businesses that require very few phones, trunk lines may be ideal for businesses that have a lot of phones, and Hosted VoIP is a good solution for the in between.
How much do we want to manage our voice system?
Businesses that have a dedicated IT staff may find trunk lines beneficial, because you can control all aspects of the configurations. Businesses that desire little to no management of their phone system should choose Hosted VoIP, as users can manage as much or as little of the voice solution as they desire – allowing you to focus on revenue generating efforts.
How many vendors do we prefer to work with?
Hosted VoIP is the only one-vendor, comprehensive voice solution. Digital and trunk lines require a third party to supply the equipment, as well as provide support outside of the networking equipment.
What can we afford?
While each solution has its benefits, price is always an important factor in making any business decision, which is why we multiple pricing options to fit your needs. Our team is here to discuss how we can make the most of your voice system, without compromising your bottom line.
Are you ready to discuss which voice system is right for your organization? Whether you’re ready to make a decision or you’re looking for professional advice, we’d like to talk with you.

Your paid and organic marketing efforts are doing the business — click through rates, or CTRs, have never been higher and record numbers of visitors are finding their way to your website. Time to put your feet up and stick the kettle on? Not so fast. If that traffic isn’t converting, all of your hard work has been for nothing. Whether you are just starting up and running the show solo or if you are a seasoned marketing director who has signed up to some pretty ambitious KPIs, optimizing your webpages to increase conversions is plainly a must.
Naturally, every online marketer will measure successful conversions differently based upon their business model and specific goals. Across all verticals, conversions are expressed simply as visitors who perform a desired action: for an online publisher this would be the submission of a form on a subscription page; for a digital retailer this would be the addition of products to a cart. However, whatever industry you’re working in, a 2% conversion rate should be the baseline goal for your website: reaching this number and beyond is the very foundation of high sales volume. In this article, we outline four tried and tested tactics that, if put into practice effectively, will be sure to get you the conversion percentages you covet.
On search engine real estate it’s all about gaining prime location for your ads. When it comes to optimizing conversions, it’s all about continuous testing. The nature of experimentation by definition dictates that some tests will succeed and some will fail: either way, both outcomes represent great learning opportunities. It is the best way to mitigate the risks that come with decision making while simultaneously affording your creative teams room to do what they do best – design, discover, innovate, explore.
The headline. Are you getting your message across instantly? Is it providing immediate and easily digestible value?
Page design. Are you packing a visual punch? Are your images streamlined, easy on the eye, and independently adding value?
The offer. Take a step back and consider what the customer is getting for their money. How is it presented? Is the information on the page still relevant? Is the message conveyed clearly?
Call to Action, or CTA. Does it guide your visitor to the metaphorical finish line? Is it concise and synthetic?
Testing should be a never-ending process. As soon as you’ve optimized one aspect of your webpage, shift attention and build out variations of something else. The more you integrate A/B and multivariate testing into your core marketing strategy, the more your decisions can be influenced by real-time data rather than ideas and opinions. If you’re leaving things to chance, you’re leaving precious dollars on the table.
A common mistake among digital marketing practitioners today is that they do not provide a distinct and compelling value proposition up front. If your homepage or landing pages are simply dominated by your logo or ineffective “welcome” messages, you are missing out. The importance of nailing your core messaging cannot be overstated in the environment of saturated online marketplaces — while you are likely to match your competitors in a number of ways, you need to outperform them in certain key areas and sell that to your prospective customers.
Of course, crafting and refining your value proposition is a facet of your business that goes far beyond the pages of your website — it is the very essence of what you stand for and what you do. It requires reflection and a constantly open dialogue both internally and externally. But once it has been defined, it must be communicated efficaciously in order to achieve optimal results across your entire organization — from marketing to sales and everything in between. Ideally, your value proposition should be articulated in a single, credible sentence that leaves no space for ambiguity. However well-defined and eloquently expressed you think it may be, though, to understand it’s true resonance, you must be repeatedly measuring how it performs (scroll back to point number 1). While many marketers first look to things like font size, button shapes, and other elements to tackle lagging conversions, the first step has to be analyzing the value you are communicating.
For anyone to part ways with their sensitive data by filling out a form, or their money through a purchase of a product or service, they need to feel confident in your brand and secure in the transaction. One of the most straightforward ways to boost conversions is to make it easy for the visitor to verify the accuracy of your content through articles in renowned publications, citations, reviews and case studies. We’ve all seen the traditional before-and-after type testimonials — when done well they are an extremely effective marketing tool, triggering emotional responses in viewers and providing tangible examples of just how consumers can benefit from your offering. The effects of such endorsements have been the source of great industry debate, with some reports suggesting that the inclusion of videos on landing pages will increase conversions by a massive 80%. That is a compelling number and certainly justifies giving it a go if you’re not already.
While the above would undoubtedly be part of your long-term strategy — video testimonials are not cheap or easy — there are some quick fixes around your website that you can implement to build credibility. Start by listing a physical address, showcasing photographs of your offices, listing your affiliations with respected organizations, displaying biographies of your leadership team, and making it easy to get in touch. Then take into consideration the navigation and ease-of-use — nothing kills trust quicker than an outdated, amateur-looking website. When constructing your webpages, be sure to update all of your visible content, remove any peripheral distractions (pop-ups, blinking banners, etc), stay consistent, and avoid errors of any kind. You’d be surprised just how many seemingly minor things can hurt your credibility.
Now this sounds like a given, right? But again, you’d be amazed at the number of companies who make doing business difficult. In short, your visitors should not have to figure out how to sign up, buy, or where to click — the desired action should be apparent. On every page that contains a CTA, everything should be geared around guiding the user toward the action you want them to take. If it’s a sign-up, ask them to fill in as few fields as possible — don’t ask for any information that you don’t need to know to complete the process. If it’s a product order, don’t bombard them with similar offerings that can detract attention and do not force guests to sign-up before checking out.
You should also keep in mind that regardless of the quality of your offering or your webpage, there are always going to be visitors who are not quite ready to make that all-important click. To keep these visitors engaged, consider providing a second CTA. In addition to saving those potentially lost conversions, they’re great for progressing leads through the funnel and supporting other company goals that could involve social sharing or signing up for company updates.
Every visitor comes to your website for a reason — most likely because they clicked on an ad or an organic search result that they liked or was appealing. Each of them arrives with wants, needs and expectations. Displaying value out of the gate, building up trust and encouraging conversions through simple navigation are the basic strategies you can employ that will ultimately compel your audience to take action. Getting traffic to your website is one thing, but getting that traffic to convert is another thing entirely. And understanding the difference is the key.

As the capital city of Chiapas State, Tuxtla Gutierrez is the urban, political and economic center with many tourism options. This city witnessed the birth of the most internationally famous poet of Mexico, Jaime Sabines, who has his own cultural enclosure literary contests of great importance nationwide.
The city name comes from the Nahuatl Tochtlan tongue which means “place where bunnies abound”. This name was granted after they took over this region populated by the zoques natives, who adapted their tongue, to eventually remaining in the modern vocabulary, as for Gutierrez, it was in honor to the renowned soldier and politician Joaquin Miguel Gutierrez, thus founded as Tuxtla Gutierrez since 1848.
Its weather is fresh almost during all year round, especially in the sierra’s southern region due to the abundant vegetation, height and environment humidity. The rivers Grijalva, El Sabinla, Suchiapa, Yatipal, Tera, San Agustin and Guadalupe stretch across Tuxtla Gutierrez. Within its gastronomy it is worth pointing out the pepita with tasajo, chipilin soup and other.

These dilly carrots are my new favourite. They are simple to make, crunchy, tangy and delicious. You can eat them straight out of the jar, dip them into your favourite spread or chop them up and add to salads. They make a great lunchbox snack too!
Once you've eaten all the carrots you can save the leftover brine and use it in salad dressings, marinades or as a starter culture for ferments like this Cultured Cashew Cheese or Basil Pesto.
Cut the carrots into thick evenly sized sticks, peel and crush the garlic and place together in a wide mouth mouth mason jar.
Combine the water, salt and dill in a bowl then pour over the carrots and garlic.
Top up with extra water if needed to cover the carrots leaving about an inch of space at the top of the jar.
Weigh the carrots down with a fermentation weight, shot glass or saucer small enough to fit inside the jar.
Cover with a lid and leave to ferment for 4-7 days or until taste is to your liking.
When the carrots are ready the brine will be cloudy and the carrots slightly tangy and crunchy. Sediment on the bottom of the jar is normal.
Store in the refrigerator where they will keep for about a month.
Temperature and size of carrots will affect fermentation time.
It's good practice to taste your ferments as they go to get the right amount of tang and crunch you like.
Our goal is to make fermentation simple and to give you the confidence to feed your family fermented foods READ MORE...

The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, USA, aboard an Atlas V-401 launch vehicle on August 12, 2005. The MRO spacecraft carries a very sophisticated scientific payload. Its primary science mission is to to provide global, regional survey, and targeted observations from a low altitude orbit for one Martian year (687 Earth days). After a seven month interplanetary transit, the spacecraft fired its six main engines and established a highly elliptical capture orbit at Mars. During the post-MOI early check-out period, four instruments acquired engineering-quality data. This was followed by five months of aerobraking operations. After aerobraking was terminated, a series of propulsive maneuvers were used to establish the desired low altitude science orbit. As the spacecraft is readied for its primary science mission, spacecraft and instrument checkout and deployment activities have continued.

This hymn about God as source of safety was written by Australian Roman Catholic priest and liturgist Fr Frank Andersen MSC.
It was originally published in the Eagles Wings collection, and so is now included in Scripture in Song - The Music of Frank Andersen MSC, which is still available. Both of these publications include lead-sheet style sheet music.
The words are based on Psalm 61.
The tune was written by Fr Andersen: it has a 4/4 time signature, and in the key of A the first few notes are CDE F_EFG FE C_.
The hymn is quite different from one with the same title written by Bernadette Farrell, which is based on Revelations.
My help shall come from God alone.
My lasting peace.
1 In God is my safety ...
2 Take refuge in God ...
3 Our Yahweh is Power ...

The objective of this study was to improve the level of social interaction of girls with intellectual disability in Bahraini public school through applying a training program to develop a social skill which is the skill of making friends and generalize it in different social situations. The study attempted to examine these two hypotheses: 1. The application of the used training program leads to the development of the making friends Skill within the experimental group members of girls with intellectual disability. 2. The training on the skills of making friends lead to improve the level of social interaction within the experimental group members of girls with intellectual disability. The study participants were (10) girls with intellectual disability integrated into a regular classroom at Somaiah Primary School for girls in the kingdom of Bahrain. Their ages were between (9-12). The study confirmed the fact that applying the program led to developing the skills of making friends as well as improving the level of social interaction to the intellectual disabled girls. It also revealed that there were significant differences between the pre-and post-tests of making friends skills in favor of the post-test results.

The price of any item (including residential real estate) is determined by the theory of ‘supply and demand.’ If many people are looking to buy an item and the supply of that item is limited, the price of that item increases.
Putting your home on the market now, rather than waiting for increased competition in the spring, might make a lot of sense.

Selling Your Home? Make Sure the Price is Right!
Thursday, January 17th, 2019 at 12:00pm.
If you’ve ever watched “The Price is Right,” you know that the only way to win is to be the one to correctly guess the price of the item you want without going over! That means your guess must be just slightly under the retail price.
In today’s shifting real estate market, where more inventory is coming to market and home values are projected to appreciate at lower rates, homeowners will not be able to price their homes as aggressively as they were able to just last year.
They will have to employ the same strategy: be the closest without going over!
As we have explained before, pricing your home at or slightly below market value actually increases the number of buyers who will see your home in their search!

Should these phrases be banned from the delivery room?
What month are you due?
What do you think?
Should these phrases be banned from the delivery room?
Maternity care professionals should avoid saying "good girl", during labour, and steer clear of language suggesting women are simply "baby producing containers", according to new advice published in the British Medical Journal.
"Positive communication and interactions throughout the birthing process significantly affect the woman's experience, which in turn can affect both her mental and physical health, as well as her relationship with her baby post-natally," write authors Natalie Mobbs, Catherine Williams and Andrew Weeks.
Why does Australia fear home births?
In their paper, Ms Williams and Mr Weeks argue that as some women may not be aware of their human rights during childbirth, "rights for respectful care, privacy, and freedom of choice concerning their birth", it is the duty of caregivers to use language that will help empower all women.
"This requires careful use of language, reflection on our own practice as caregivers, listening to women, and communicating appropriately, plainly, and respectfully to guide her through the complexities of maternity care," they write.
The article further outlines several examples of "poor language" commonly used in birth communication.
Rather than seeing women as simply a "container or mechanism for producing a baby", women should be respected as individuals. As such, "gave birth" is more appropriate than "delivered", the advice states.
And it's time to bin codes and acronyms, too. That means it's "your waters have broken" not "SROM" and "vaginal birth after caesarean birth" rather than VBAC.
The authors also want to rid discouraging or insensitive language from birthing suites. "Poor maternal effort" should be substituted for "not finding it easy", while "high risk" should be "medically complex." And, in cases where there is a terminal diagnosis, "compassionate induction" should be used, instead of "terminate pregnancy".
While the authors concede that eyes may roll at the thought of "political correctness gone mad," they believe the change is necessary - and well-founded.
"Good communication during the birthing process is critical to good maternity care; but achieving a shift in deeply ingrained language, and the thinking it reflects, is difficult," the authors write. There are some caveats, however. "There is a fine line between changing terminology to integrate language which is more respectful, inclusive, and less intimidating for the mother, and substituting vague, verbose language which hinders the original message," the authors explain.
For example, it's unlikely "crash section" will ever be changed to "a caesarean section that we will recommend to the woman is done as rapidly as possible", they note, if such a change prevents rapid understanding of the gravity of the situation among medical professionals.
Sarah Stewart, Midwifery Adviser, Policy & Professional Practice Unit at Australian College of Midwives (ACM) told Fairfax Media that the ACM is supportive of clear communication that is woman-focused, relevant and appropriate. "Use of language, what is said, and how it is said is a fluid thing, from woman to woman, and even from context to context," Stewart explains, adding that she would expect a midwife to constantly be evaluating how they communicate so they provide effective, empathetic, and appropriate language at all times.
But while she may not be advocating a complete ban of certain phrases, Stewart has her own pet hates.
"I hate 'she's 5 cm dilated'" she says. "No one is 5 cm dilated ... a cervix is 5 cm dilated!" And "failure to progress", is another bug bear. "This has terrible communication about a woman's ability to be a mother," she says. "Imagine you are a woman and have been told that you haven't birthed your baby because you have 'failed'. That can compound a woman's feeling of failure and guilt that she is already feeling.
And last, but most definitely not least, "people talking about 'vaginas' when they really mean labia," Stewart says.

LONDON -- Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) on Wednesday dodged a question about whether he believes in evolution.
The governor also repeatedly dodged questions about United States foreign policy, citing respect for President Barack Obama. He said American politicians should not criticize a sitting president while abroad.
"Being old fashioned, and having respect for the president, I just don't think you talk about foreign policy when you are on foreign soil," he said.
Walker also alluded to the expectation back in the United States that he would run for president, noting the media had described him as "bland" as a prospective candidate. "I'd rather be bland than stupid, or ignorant, or moronic," he said.
Walker isn't the only would-be White House hopeful to dodge the issue. Last year, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) declined three times to answer the same question. "The reality is I'm not an evolutionary biologist," he explained.
In response to Walker's comments, a spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee said: "Let’s recap - today in London, Scott Walker traveled to a foreign policy think tank to refuse to discuss foreign policy, dodged a straightforward question on evolution, and failed to explain away the budget fiasco he left behind in Wisconsin.
During his visit to London, Walker met David Cameron and watched him debate Labour leader Ed Miliband in the raucous weekly prime minister's question time session in parliament. He also visited the grave of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
In recent weeks Chris Christie and Bobby Jindal, both potential Republican presidential candidates, have also passed through the British capital. And like Mitt Romney before them, both got themselves into hot water.
Christie caused controversy with comments about vaccinations. And Jindal was criticised over claims there were "no-go zones" in London where non-Muslims were not welcome.
UPDATE: Walker addressed the matter on Twitter.
Both science & my faith dictate my belief that we are created by God. I believe faith & science are compatible, & go hand in hand.

LaTeX should be used for manuscripts of publications, for which PDFs must be rendered, uploaded, and linked into other documentation to make them available online.
All documentation is under Version Control with Mercurial and stored in either the docs repo, or in the docs directory of another appropriate project repo (see Organization of Mercurial Repositories). Most notably, the tools repo includes a large public documentation tree. When changes that have been committed to the docs and tools repos are pushed to Bitbucket a signal is sent to readthedocs.org to automatically rebuild and render the docs at https://salishsea-meopar-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ and https://salishsea-meopar-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/, respectively.
Sphinx uses reStructuredText (reST), a simple, unobtrusive markup language. The Sphinx documentation provides a brief introduction to reST concepts and syntax. Sphinx extends reST with a collection of directives and interpreted text roles for cross-referencing, tables of contents, code examples, and specially formatted paragraphs like notes, alerts, warnings, etc.
Sphinx and the packages that it depends on are included in the Anaconda Python Distribution that you should already have installed.
As you are writing and editing Sphinx documentation you can build the HTML rendered docs locally and preview them in your browser to ensure that there are no reST syntax errors and that the docs look the way you want them to.
to build the docs. You will be notified of any syntax or consistency errors. The HTML pages produced by the make html command are stored in the _build/html/ subdirectory and you can use your browser to open the index.html file in that directory to preview them. You can keep a browser tab open to the rendered docs and refresh after each build to see updates.
The top level docs/ directory contains (at minimum) the files conf.py, Makefile, and index.rst, and the directory _static/. After the docs have been built it will also contain the _build/ directory.
build succeeded.
Build finished. The HTML pages are in _build/html.
Consider using semantic line breaks in your Sphinx files.
This is a paragraph that contains `a link`_.
If the link text should be the web address, you don’t need special markup at all, the parser finds links and mail addresses in ordinary text.
This is the text of the section.
It refers to the section itself, see :ref:`my-reference-label`.
The :ref: role would then generate a link to the section, with the link title being “Section to cross-reference”. This works just as well when section and reference are in different source files.
a reference :ref:`my-figure` would insert a reference to the figure with link text “Figure caption”.
The same works for tables that are given an explicit caption using the table directive.
Labels that aren’t placed before a section title can still be referenced to, but you must give the link an explicit title, using this syntax: :ref:`Link title <label-name>`.
Inter-Sphinx links are enabled between the tools docs and the docs repo; i.e. whenever Sphinx encounters a cross-reference that has no matching target in the tools docs, it looks for targets in the docs, and vice-versa.
Using ref is advised over standard reStructuredText links to sections (like `Section title`_) because it works across files, when section headings are changed, and for all builders that support cross-references.
* `SalishSeaBathy.ipynb`_: Documents the full domain bathymetry used for the Salish Sea NEMO runs.
In most cases your should just let Sphinx take care of inserting line breaks in the rendered docs; it will almost always do the right thing by putting breaks between paragraphs, between list items, around block quotations and code examples, etc.
The |br| substitution needs to be defined once (but only once) per file.

Wyllie Street runs from Alewa Drive to Nuuanu Avenue. The area the road passes through is mostly residential, though the road does have Maemae Elementary School and a fire station on it. The road has two lanes and a number of small, local roads running off of it. There are currently no bikeways on Wyllie Street.
The Oahu Bike Plan calls for Wyllie Street to receive a bike lane. The lane would connect to a planned lane on Liliha Street and a proposed bike route along Pali Highway. The route would allow students at Maemae Elementary to cycle to school and provide a quieter segment for cyclists headed into Nuuanu.
The city’s Department of Design and Construction is repaving Wyllie Street but has elected not to include the planned infrastructure. No other government agency involved in road work on Oahu currently has plans to implement the bike lanes.

These artworks are influenced by the Impressionist movement. Diluted images and an imposing nature guide the first impression. Like the Impressionists’ oeuvre, there is in these photographs loose layers of colors, a characteristic pattern of the movement, where the contours and details are no more important than the work as a whole; where the harmony of the colors are more valued; where a perfect balance is always sought, and shadows are reduced; in short, the harmony of the work as a whole. The pictorial style of the artwork was obtained through interventions in the camera.

Need help getting old account back... Please help!
Discussion in 'Xbox 360 Support Archive' started by sSoLaR, Jun 20, 2009 with 1 replies and 294 views.
Not open for further replies.
Basically in November of '08 my then main-account (sSoLaR) got hacked, I attempted to get it back by calling Xbox customer support, but it didn't help -- it seems all the information had been changed. So, I gave up and tried to forget about that account and just created a new one.
Anyway, I really liked the Gamertag I had on that account, which was "sSoLaR". So I'd like to get that acc. back, just to change the name on it -- so that I can then change my current main to it.
I don't really have much to offer in return besides a redeemable Three-month XbL membership code (and a huge thanks ?). I know that's not much, but yeah... So basically I'll give the code to whoever can get the account back as soon as they send me a message from it to prove they're in "possession" of it. Also, the sSoLaR is a 50 General Grade 2 in Halo 3, so whoever gets the my account back can keep/sell or give it away if they want to, once I change the name.
That's it really... so yeah, I hope it posting this isn't against the rules. All I need is one person to help me. Thanks!

jeff and maya bohnhoff – Yeah, Filk!
Yeah, Filk!
For space is wide and good friends are too few.
What is filk?
Now he’s riding the railway to Hogwarts.
Lyrics available on Bandcamp.
“Filk in the Lobby” by Jeff and Maya Bohnhoff, which I can only assume is based on a true story. The songs referenced in the lyrics are Fire in the Sky by Jordin Kare and March of Cambreadth by Heather Alexander.
Lyrics available on Bandcamp.
This song made it onto the “Best Adapted Song” Pegasus brainstorming poll for 2016, and I urge you to check out the lists, whether you plan on voting (and every single one of you is eligible to vote, yes, looking at you) or are just looking for some good song recs.

Sign up for email updates from Sioux Empire Fair Association, Inc.
The Sioux Empire Fair is proud to welcome country artists NITTY GRITTY DIRT BAND with Ned LeDoux to the Campbell’s Main Stage on Wednesday, August 7. The show is FREE with paid fair admission! Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 6 - 12, and free for children ages 5 and under.
With a refreshed lineup and newfound energy, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band remains one of the most accomplished bands in American roots music. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band played their first gig in 1966 in Southern California as a jug band and by 1969 had become a cornerstone of the burgeoning country-rock community. Their career breakthrough came in 1970 with the release of the record Uncle Charlie & His Dog Teddy and the single “Mr. Bojangles,” a folksy Top 10 pop hit that remains a staple of their live show. The band secured 16 Top 10 country hits between 1983 and 1990, including three No. 1 singles: “Long Hard Road (The Sharecropper’s Dream),” “Modern Day Romance,” and “Fishin’ in the Dark.” The group now includes Jeff Hanna, Jimmie Fadden, Bob Carpenter, Jim Photoglo, Ross Holmes, and Jaime Hanna. When all six members voices merge, the harmonies add a powerful new component for the legendary band.
Joining Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is Ned LeDoux. In country music, a last name like LeDoux casts a big, storied and bittersweet shadow, but it’s one Ned LeDoux doesn’t mind standing in one bit. Keeping the cowboy in country is important to Ned as you can hear in the song “Forever A Cowboy” also co-written with his dad. Ned puts his own spin on his endless touring with “Brother Highway” about all the time he has spent on the road with various bands since his days in high school.

Spider-Man is an unlockable character in the Facebook game Marvel: Avengers Alliance. As an Infiltrator, he gains the Combat Awareness buff after attacking Tacticians. He has tremendous agility and an appropriate repertoire of powers, including: web-based attacks and his Spider Sense. He starts with his traditional red & blue costume, but players can purchase the black costume to fight as an ebony Infiltrator or a nefarious Bruiser. By unlocking Spider-Man players also gain access to the bonus missions in Chapter 3 of the single-player campaign.
Bruce Banner--the Incredible Hulk--and his wife, Betty, travel to New York to meet an old friend. There, they discover that their friend is a target for assassination by the notorious Super-Skrull, an alien possessing all the powers of the Fantastic Four. Teaming-up with the amazing Spider-Man, the Hulk must stop the shapeshifting villain from carrying out his mission.
Run Forrest, run! So, you might not be ready to run across the country (and then back again) but that's no reason you can't rock the shaggy bearded look of Forrest Gump when he "just felt like running." With gym shorts and a shirt styled directly from the movie, this costume also includes an ever-popular Bubba Gump hat, along with the signature long beard and wig set. This officially licensed set is perfect for any movie buff.
In the animated show The Batman (2004–2008), the Batsuit resembles the Batman: The Animated Series suit, but has shorter ears on the cowl, has claws on the fingertips of the gloves, a slightly redesigned bat symbol with the yellow ellipse on his chest, a more high-tech computerized utility belt linking to the Batcave's computer system called the "Batwave," and a longer cape that, just like the Batman: TAS costume, sometimes behaves like a cloak, draped over the Batman's body. In the episode "Fleurs Du Mal," shown that the suit is linked to the Batwave, to monitor his physical and mental activities. Despite this regular default Batsuit, Batman uses some other variations of the Batsuit as well in the series to tackle certain situations and villains.
A martial art garb designed around the totem of the bat. While retraining his body after having his back restored by a mutant with healing powers and then going through physical therapy Bruce Wayne was given the Mask of Tengu by Lady Shiva as a substitute Bat-Uniform during the final stages of his retraining, before this, he wore a standard ninja outfit with a hood.
A teen outcast Andy Maguire went on a trip from his school to Horizon Labs, where Peter Parker was holding an experiment. Tiberius Stone, not liking Peter, sabotages the experiment, and Andy is hit with a ray of Peter Particles. Soon after he discovers he has super-powers. When he is examined by top greatest superhuman specialists, Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Henry Pym and Hank McCoy, they discover that he has energy projection, flight, super speed, super strength and force field, but his limitation is he can control only one power at a time. Reed tells Peter that he had discovered these particles, but didn't publish his work, because he considered the particles too powerful and dangerous. He then assigns Alpha as Spider-Man's sidekick. Alpha is however very careless and eventually quits working with Spider-Man and goes solo. Spider-Man decides then that there should be Alpha no more! Soon when earth is under attack from Terminus, Alpha is called from Captain America to fight him. During the fight Alpha behaves most irresponsible and almost destroys planes flying in the air. Though Alpha defeats Terminus, Peter observes that Terminus' staff can redirect Alpha energy. Then Spider-Man calls Alpha for another "analysis" and uses the tech acquired from the Terminus to strip Andy of his Alpha power, leaving him as nobody again.
The Marvel Comics teams of the early 1960s typically included at least one (and often the only) female member, much like DC's flagship superhero team the Justice League of America (whose initial roster included Wonder Woman as the token female); examples include the Fantastic Four's Invisible Girl, the X-Men's Jean Grey (originally known as Marvel Girl), the Avengers' Wasp, and the Brotherhood of Mutants' Scarlet Witch (who later joined the Avengers).
If you're a guy, you probably spend most nights quoting your favorite movies, telling the latest jokes or mimicking superheroes, whether or not your properly dressed for the occasion. That's why Halloween is the perfect night for men. Is there another holiday where you can dress up like Bender and talk about your shiny metal posterior? And what other night can you dress up like a pirate captain and swing a sword around? What other night can you wear a cape, a Batman costume, all while pretending to fight crime, without the police getting involved. That's right, Halloween might be the best thing that's ever happened to men across the world, so you'd better make the best of it in one of our men's costumes.

With every bit of order in Spider-Man's life came a fair amount of disorder, and in this [Gerry] Conway/[Ross] Andru issue, that chaos came in the form of another new Spider-Man villain, the Grizzly.
Upon approaching the Spider-Island arc, Peter felt vulnerable with the lack of his spider sense. He began training under Shang Chi to create his own unique martial arts style to make up for his lack of spider sense called the "Way of the Spider". It was then revealed that Shang Chi was instructed by the new Madam Web (Julia Carpenter the former Arachne and Spider-Woman) to secretly prepare Peter for a future threat (Spider-Island). This style consists of among other things, hitting pressure points with Spider Strength, and striking with Spider Speed. This new martial art has considerably improved Spider-Man's H2H capabilities, and so far he has stalemated Julia Carpenter and effortlessly defeated 3 spider-powered individuals in a few seconds during Spider-Island. When he regained his Spider-Sense, he defeated a mutated Kaine who was considerably stronger and quicker than him, and effortlessly trumped a mind controlled Spider-Woman, in handful of blows and kicks.
The film was a hit at the box office, and as a result, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was released in 2014. The film featured the return of most of the original cast, as well as new faces like Jamie Foxx as Max Dillon/Electro, Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn/Green Goblin and Paul Giamatti as Aleksei Sytsevich/The Rhino. While the movie was a modest financial success, it was heavily panned by critics and made less at the box office than its predecessor. Despite plans for a third movie and a host of spin-offs (including a solo Venom movie, a female-led team movie featuring characters like Silver Sable, Black Cat, Spider-Gwen, Stunner and Lightbrght, and a Sinister Six movie) , the decision was made to discontinue the franchise.
What do we mean by signature? Well, the officially licensed green Halo Master Chief costume, perfect for any gamer, has a full helmet with lights and a jumpsuit shell. The Midnight Count costume is dashing and spooky, especially when he pairs it with a villainous accent. If he wants to look like he just escaped from the zoo, he can wear our plush gorilla costume, with furry bodysuit, mask and gloves. Add a banana and get ready to hear him scream and beat his hands against his chest. These costumes are so exquisite he may not want to take them off when the night of trick or treating is done.
At the end of the Silver Age, Norman Osborn's memories began to flood back. He decided to hurt Peter as much as possible as the Green Goblin. He kidnapped Gwen Stacy and held her hostage at the Brooklyn Bridge. Spider-Man went to save Gwen and, despite being ill at the time, managed to defeat the Goblin. The Goblin threw Gwen off the bridge and, although Peter caught her by attaching a web line to her leg as she fell, the drop caused her neck to snap. As Spider-Man held Gwen's dead body, he vowed to kill the Goblin. He tracked him down to one of his warehouses. He brutally pummeled the Goblin in a fit of rage but managed to stop himself from committing murder. In one last attempt to achieve victory, Norman sent his Goblin Glider to impale Spider-Man from behind. Peter ducks and the Goblin is apparently killed from being impaled by his own glider. Mary Jane consoled Peter on the death of Gwen and the two started to date. Peter eventually proposed to her, but she refused and ended up breaking up with him. At this time Miles Warren, a college professor obsessed with Gwen became the deranged villain known as the Jackal. He hired the Punisher to kill Spider-Man and he also made copies of both Gwen and Peter. The Peter copy escaped and Gwen's copy eventually went back to Miles. Harry Osborn followed in the footsteps of his father and became the next Green Goblin. He blamed Peter for his father's death. Harry later lost his memory after a fight with Spider-Man. Harry's psychologist, Bart Hamilton attempted to take up the mantle of the Goblin himself but was killed by his own bomb while fighting Peter.
Jump up ^ "BBC – Religions – Christianity: All Hallows' Eve". British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). 2010. Archived from the original on 3 November 2011. Retrieved 1 November 2011. All Hallows' Eve falls on 31st October each year, and is the day before All Hallows' Day, also known as All Saints' Day in the Christian calendar. The Church traditionally held a vigil on All Hallows' Eve when worshippers would prepare themselves with prayers and fasting prior to the feast day itself.
The Memory cloth is a piece of equipment that Bruce is shown by Lucius Fox at Applied Sciences. The item itself is normally soft and light, but when an electric current is passed through it the cape takes a rigid shape. Bruce took it, and the gloves then customized the skeleton and cut into bat wing shape scalloped cape and somehow made it a functional paraglider contraption.
The dark Skull Man manga would later get a television adaptation and underwent drastic changes. The character was redesigned to resemble a grasshopper, becoming the renowned first masked hero of the Kamen Rider series. Kamen Rider is a motorcycle riding hero in an insect-like costume, who shouts Henshin (Transform) to don his costume and gain superhuman powers.

That isn’t to dismiss all complaints by Yale students. If contested claims that black students were turned away from a party due to their skin color are true, for example, that is outrageous. If any discrete group of students is ever discriminated against, or disproportionately victimized by campus crime, or graded more harshly by professors, then of course students should protest and remedies should be implemented.
Peter Benjamin Parker is a photographer for the Daily Bugle newspaper under Editor-in-Chief Joe Robertson. Parker is also the friendly costumed hero Spider-Man. Spider-Man possesses the abilities of Earth arachnids, allowing him to fire thread-like projectiles from his wrists. These threads may be used to spin webs of near-limitless size, as well as to capture thieves and other assorted rogues in the selfsame manner as a spider entraps traditional insects. Those who wonder about his boundless strength would be advised to listen closely, as his spectacular might is the result of radioactive energy flowing through his very veins. The aforementioned web-like materials fired from his wrists can also be used as a means of swinging to and fro, meaning that those who wish to observe the Spider-Man in action can best do so by simply looking overhead. In addition, he is known to be primarily a nocturnal adventurer, appearing in the deep of night wherever evil is afoot. His alacrity is so great, his timing so amazing, he has been compared to a flash of light. Despite his best efforts and good intentions, it seems that his attempts at justice are often overlooked, and while other heroes may find celebrity and fortune, poor Parker is constantly in one hang-up or another. Regardless, the Spider-Man soldiers on; wherever there is a fight or ruckus or tussle, the Spider-Man can be found!

Long before Bruce Wayne became Batman, Thomas Wayne wore a "batsuit" to a costume ball. The costume consisted of a domino mask and a cape cut in a manner suggesting wings. According to some stories, Thomas foiled a crime while wearing the suit. Batman kept it in a glass case similar to the suits of his fallen partners. Dr. Hurt has since taken it and worn it as his own, as he claims to be Bruce's father. It was assumed lost when Dr. Hurt plunged into the Gotham Bay, but he has since resurfaced wearing it.
Following this, Holland reprised his role in Spider-Man: Homecoming, a 2017 co-production between Marvel Studios and Sony. The film also starred Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes/Vulture, Marissa Tomei as Aunt May, Jacob Batalon as Ned Lee, Zendaya as MJ, Laura Harrier as Liz Allan, Bokeem Woodbine as Herman Schultz/Shocker, Michael Chernus as Phineas Mason/Tinkerer, Tony Revolori as Flash Thompson, Jon Favreau as Harold "Happy" Hogan and Robert Downey, Jr. as Tony Stark.

Sunbathers on the rocks at the end of the peninsula were diving in crystal clear waters and the clouds cast a bright reflection in the sea - a nice memory from last summer.
New painting is added to section "Available pictures", canvas named "Touched By The Sun". In the begining of the autumn I present a bouquet of field flowers, caressed by a sunbeam. By the light reflecting in the bouquet the whole room glowed in warm hues - a nice memory from the Balkan near Elena. Wishing you a nice weekend!
New painting is added to section "Available pictures", canvas named "Late Afternoon In Bojenci". I like that Bojenci manages to preserve it's authentic look in which I remember the village from my childhood. Gladly I've noticed that the new houses in the village were built in the style of old buildings and does not irritate the eye. Perhaps this is the reason to return to Bojenci again and again over the years. Successful week everyone!
New painting is added to section "Available pictures", canvas named "Land of The Winds". After a short summer break, today I'm presenting a canvas from Kaliakra. Strong winds on the cape especially in the beginning of autumn make visitor raise his arms as wings, ready to fly - a symbol of human longing for freedom. I wish you all an emotional weekend.

Threads or Cores: Which Do You Need?
Anyone contemplating a new computer purchase (for personal use or business) is confronted with new (and confusing) hardware choices. Intel and AMD have done their best to differentiate the x86 architecture as much as possible while retaining compatibility between the two CPUs, but the differences between the two are growing. One key differentiator is hyperthreading; Intel does it, AMD does not. This article explains what that really means, with particular attention to the way different server OSes take advantage (or don’t). Plenty of meaty tech stuff.
This article explains what that really means, with particular attention to the way different server OSs take advantage (or don’t).
Since this site’s name is OSnews, I consider it a massive blow to fail to spell the plural of ‘OS’ correctly. It is ‘OSes’ and it follows the same rules as every other word ending in letter ‘s’.
It is ‘OSes’ and it follows the same rules as every other word ending in letter ‘s’.
Erm, hate to tell you this but OS isn’t a word, it’s an acronym.
By writing “OSes” you are in effect writing “Operating Systemes”.
Then again, an acronym is a <a href=http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=acronym>word</a&….
Then again it is actually an initialism.
No, really. It’s a word. Hence the -onym.
It is syntactically a word. And in any case, when an acronym is inflected, the inflections apply to the form of the acronym, not the underlying words that make it up. It is not a macro that ought to expand, it is its own lexical item.
you, good sir, have been whored! LMAO!!!
Then there’s application hyperthreading, wherein an application is written to perform tasks in parallel.
In my youth, we called this just “multithreading”.
Then there’s application hyperthreading, wherein an application is written to perform tasks in parallel.
In my youth, we called this just “multithreading”.
“Multi-threading” or “threads” in software is a completely different concept that doesn’t really have much to do with hyper-threading (in the same way that “process” isn’t the same as “processor”).
“Hyper-threading” is a marketing term Intel use. It’s usually called SMT or Symmetrical Multi-Threading by hardware people (in the same way as SMP or Symmetrical Multi-Processing is used).
To avoid confusion it’s best to use “logical CPU” instead of “thread” if you’re talking about SMT/hyper-threading. For example, “a physical CPU contains one or more cores, which contain one or more logical CPUs”.
Just realised “Then there’s application hyperthreading, wherein an application is written to perform tasks in parallel.” (and the confusing use of “threads”) isn’t the only mistake in the article.
There’s “Intel dropped the technology when it introduced the Core architecture in 2004 and brought it back with the Nehalem generation in 2008”. This isn’t quite right – Atom (released in June 2008) had hyper-threading before Nehalem (which was released in March 2009, not in 2008).
Then “The CPU executes one instruction at a time, according to its clock speed.” which is just plain wrong. A modern CPU’s pipeline actually has multiple execution units (e.g. Nehalem’s pipeline has 9 execution units – some for integer instructions, some for SSE, etc), and it’s possible to complete several instructions per cycle.
The article also says “Multithreading does not add genuine parallelism to the processing structure because it’s not executing two threads at once.”. This is wrong because hyper-threading can give genuine parallelism (e.g. one logical CPU executing integer instructions while another logical CPU executes SSE instructions; where they both use different execution units in the same core at the same time).
I should probably add that while AMD’s marketing department probably doesn’t like “hyper-threading” (Intel’s marketing), AMD’s “Bulldozer” CPUs are planned to have something where 2 cores share some execution units to improve utilisation of those execution units. This will confuse things even more – the end result would be that a pair of AMD cores will behave a little bit like separate cores and a little bit like a single core with hyper-threading.
I am looking forward to Bulldozer.

From what I understand of Bulldozer it only shares the floating point units. This would mean that the cores will perform like full cores until they are fpu constrained.
it all depends on the programming of the app. most apps only recently are starting to really take advantage of mutli threading and multi core (even though the have been out for a lonnnnng time now).
We need to find ways to more easily program more efficient applications, most programs are written the way they are because it was easiest to write it that way and not because it was the most resource efficient or optimized. Though, in the last few years, there have been some pretty big big releases in the compilers I use (including Intel’s) that have made things much easier to code to take advantage of the hardware in a way that it should be.
Now, according to the article, Hyperthreading is an invention for dumb OSes who are not able to put blocked processes into a ‘Blocked list’ out of the CPU or what?
I don’t get a clear picture of this added to what they told me about OS scheduling at college.
That’s because the article uses confusing terminology (I’m seriously wondering if the article’s author knows the difference between hyper-threading in hardware and multi-threading in software). It’s also a little misleading (“a few milliseconds while data is fetched from RAM” only makes sense if your RAM is *insanely* slow).
But from what I read, and I am probably very wrong, it sounds like the virtualization going on uses two parts of the physical CPU for differing instruction sets, but wouldn’t they both need to be utilized in a clock cycle?
:/ This is why I didn’t to EE and did CS instead.

I’m not sure I exactly understand what you’re saying, but you are probably right in that you are probably very wrong.
A logical CPU (which could be an entire CPU, a core, or a “hyper-thread”, depending on the setup) executes instructions from RAM. Mostly all these instructions can do is access RAM and manipulate CPU registers. So the only state that a logical CPU needs to run is the registers (since RAM is shared). So, a hyper-threading core (which is a physical section of the chip that has one set of the things that execute instructions) has two copies of all the registers, one for each “hyper-thread”. When it is executing a “hyper-thread”, and it has to wait for something slow (such as access to RAM), it can switch to the other set of registers. This, in effect, causes the other “hyper-thread” to run. It constantly switches back and forth so that the core is rarely waiting for something, and thus, performance is improved without adding an entire new core.
That’s where I was confused. I couldn’t understand how it could manage the switch.

I don’t know about the other virtualization technologies, but with VMware you can have two cores, each with two execution units (hyperthreading). This scenario often looks like 4 CPUs to an OS, even though there’s only 2 cores. VMware is smart enough to pick two execution units that are on separate processors when giving CPU time to a virtual machine granted two processors (vCPUs).
They are talking about the processor pipeline. On a very high level, in RISC machines lets say each operation takes five cycles to complete. However one part of the cycle needs something from memory, in this case the operation cannot continue because it does not have any data. This causes a delay in the execution of the instruction. This is a level below the operating systems thread scheduler, as its the actual cpu(s) making choices on what operations are to be done.
is that chip manufacturers are selling us products that are over engineered for most our needs. Most OS’s, and applications aren’t written to “really” take advantage of multiple processors, let alone identify and adjust performance for the number of cores present. I chuckle when i hear some guy at a client site talking about buying the newest Core i7 chip running at 3GHz blah blah, so I ask, what are you doing with it, and he says, “gaming man, gaming.” All the power in the world, and we game. Gotta love it.
Thing is most games struggle to use more then 2 cores, the extra performance gained is from the larger pools of L2 and L3 cache on the higher cored CPUs.
The major dev houses need to step up to the plate, but are unlikely to as it require more then the bare minimum to get their devs to hammer out barely working code on a nigh impossible deadline.
OSS has fared better, but there is still a long way to go before everything divides up the workload as much as possible.
there are already 12 core CPUs out from AMD for servers, by next year they will be in the desktop. The software just isn’t keeping up.
Hardware leads Software, not the other way around.
With hyperthreading, when the core’s execution pipeline stalls, the core begins to execute another program that’s waiting to run. Mind you, the first thread is not stopped. If it gets the data it wants, it resumes execution as well.
This is not HT, this is describing SoE (Switch on Event) Multi-Threading where you switch thread of execution when you hit a stall (like a cache miss).
HT, or SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading), is about having more than one active thread in the pipeline doing work: in some implementations you do issue instructions from more than one thread (in Pentium 4’s SMT instructions in the Trace cache [instructions already decoded] were tagged with the Thread ID).
say you have a CPU which can execute 4 instructions at a time and your main thread has only 1 instruction for your to issue at that time… is it better to just run 3 other NOP’s (nothing is executed) or to seek work from another thread and issue instructions from it?
6 cores with 6 threads CPU will beat 4 cores with 8 threads CPU.
Unless if 4c/8t processor has much better design. If the performance per core is in same ballpark, cores win over logical threads.
6 cores with 6 threads CPU will beat 4 cores with 8 threads CPU.
Unless if 4c/8t processor has much better design. If the performance per core is in same ballpark, cores win over logical threads.
True, but I think the point is that a 4 core CPU with 8 threads will beat a 4 core CPU with 4 threads. I think HT gives you both better performance per $ and per watt.
Exactly. Hyper-Threading does give a performance boost if the application is designed to take advantage of it.
On an Atom-330 (Dual Core 1.6GHz), Hyper-Threading gives a 20% performance boost from our testing.
The kicker comes when the OS scheduler doesn’t differentiate between “logical CPU” and “physical CPU” and treats them both as “physical CPUs” with the same number of integer/fpu/execution units. Then it tries to schedule two threads that use the same physical resources, thus causing them to interfere with each other and actually slow things down.
FreeBSD had this issue in 5.x and 6.x. SCHED_BSD (the default scheduler) had no concept of “logical CPUs” and treated each HT “core” as a complete physical CPU. Enabling HT in the BIOS would actually slow things down when more than one app was running. The recommendation at the time was to disable HT in the BIOS and to run a non-SMP kernel (unless there were multiple physical CPUs in the system, of course).
SCHED_ULE in 7.x gained support for scheduling HT cores.
And SCHED_ULE in 8.x has gained more knowledge about NUMA, SMP, SMT, and all the other fun stuff, allowing it to better schedule threads according to what’s actually available, where it’s running, where the RAM is connected, etc.
Not sure about Linux scheduling, other than it went through the same process, but a lot quicker.
Similarly for Windows XP, which has (I believe) no concept of SMT, and treats an HT core as a full physical CPU. I believe Vista gained support for SMT scheduling, and 7 improved upon it. But don’t know for sure.
If all you want is speed, wallet be damned, then sure go with the top end 6 core i7 or Xeon setup, 24Gb of ram, a GTX480 and a Fusion I/O Octal PCIe SSD. But your box will cost more then most cars and will heat your house as if you have the exhaust pipe from a chevy big block dumping into your room.
But if cost is a factor then DAAMIT is your best bet, an 870 or an 890GX paired with an Athlon II X4 620 or a Phenom II X6 1055T if you need the extra grunt gets you plenty of speed and cores for pretty much any typical day to day usage with room to spare.
On the workstation/server side the same applies, start with something like a Supermicro MBD-H8SGL series as your base and use either a cheap 8 core Opteron 6128 or if you need the cores, the 12 core Opteron 6168. If I remember correctly you can use standard DDR3 with these single socket boards to further increase your cost savings, though I wouldn’t not use ECC ram if the machine is running something mission critical for your business, just to be on the cautious side.
Though you with any dual socket G34 board and just get 2x 6128’s for a 16 core monster.
As for overclocking, AMD machines OC nicely, but 99% of people don’t even care about it, which means likely half of the readership here wont bother with an OC as this isn’t a hardware centric site.
x86 is CISC (complex instruction set computer), so they break the CISC instructions down into a series of RISC (reduced instruction set computer) instructions and then reorder them for execution. On each clock one or more RISC instructions may be issued to an available execution path.
The problems arise when data needs to be fetched before the next set of instructions can issues (this causes a bubble/hole in the execution path). The other place where problems happen is when doing a conditional branch (the compare can take up to 7 clocks to get a result before the processor knows what instruction is going to be ran next). The data fetch holes can mostly be fixed by intelligent pre-fetching and is not an issue with modern CPUs. The conditional branch is normally handled by making a best guess and being ready to roll back to the guess point once it’s determined that the guess was wrong.
Intel created HT as a way to solve the conditional branch and bubble problems. Basically all HT does as add a 2nd set of registers to the set of execution units. When a bubble is found, the core issues an instructions from the 2nd thread. When you find a conditional branch, just switch to the 2nd thread until we know what the correct path is.
The main problem is good compiler optimization will reduce the number of bubbles. Thus, the only time the threads switch state is when doing conditional branching; however, this is also something that good compilers try to avoid. This is why HT only gives a 20-30% speed boost; a 2nd core would give you something closer to 95% boost (you lose some speed due to memory bandwidth).
HT is cheaper; but it’s main drawback is that you get primary threads and secondary threads. The primary will run at full speed and the secondary one will at about 25% of the primary’s speed. Any application that has been optimized for multi-threading will have issues since they are internally breaking the task at hand up into small units and it expects each unit to run at the same speed.
I need to process 400 transactions and I have 2HT cores (4 threads) so I create 4 threads and have each thread process 100 transactions. I can’t report the task as finished until all 4 threads end; thus, once the threads are started I have to wait for them all to end before continuing. My actual run time would be the time to process 100 records (the 2 main threads) + the time to process 75 records (25% of the records where processed during the 1st time period and I’m assuming that the secondary threads become primary threads once the 2 primary threads end). On a 4 core machine the actual run time would be the time to process 100 records.
If the software assumes that each virtual thread is a core and schedules task accordingly, then HT can slow things down instead of speed them up.
If the software is single threaded, then HT will speed things up because a program getting some time is better then getting no time.
AMD bulldozer is HT but designed more like IBM’s style instead of Intel’s. IBM’s design is: create 2 instruction decode and issue engines and attach them to the same set of execution paths. If the decode engine can only issue 4 RISC instructions per clock and you have 6 execution paths (2 complex integer, 1 logical integer, 2 simple floating point, 1 complex floating point), why not just have the 2nd decode issue as many instructions into the unused paths as possible (it can issue to to 4 but in most cases they should be able to issue at lease 2). IBM did this with some of the PPC chips and the secondary thread was running at about 60% of the primary’s speed.
I can’t find the simplified version of IBM’s documentation.

What Intel mentions in that PDF at page 22 is basically a software version of the Scout Threads feature mentioned for Niagara and Rock processors (which they meant to implement in HW and trigger dynamically).
The idea is to help single threaded programs, or programs with low thread level parallelism, by spawning additional threads whose only purpose is to trigger cache misses and pre-fetch data as well as run down both paths of a branch to pre-calculate the target address of both and do work in advance for the main thread.
This does not change the fact that the SMT hardware in Intel’s CPU’s is able to issue instructions to its execution units from more than one thread at once.

When a bubble is found, the core issues an instructions from the 2nd thread. When you find a conditional branch, just switch to the 2nd thread until we know what the correct path is.
Again, this seems more like SoE MT and not SMT which are two different kinds of MT implementations altogether. Switching when a branch is encountered seems odd to me unless you employ something similar to HW scout threads like Niagara does (more on this later) or you are doing predication like Itanium/EPIC does and work on both paths of the conditional branch and resolve it at the end.
What you described kind of sounds like a good ol’ branch delay slot technique in a way, you defer the computation of the branch condition until you are sure that the operands are ready (not to stall when the branch needs to be processed, but it is mostly used in in order CPU’s that lack a high 90’s %success rate branch predictor Intel CPU’s have now.
Still, switching on a bubble (say a data dependency bubble, or a cache miss) is a way to do MT, but it is not the SMT way… SMT seems designed to allow the CPU to exploit parallelism in threads where the current thread does not have enough work to do.
The main problem is good compiler optimization will reduce the number of bubbles. Thus, the only time the threads switch state is when doing conditional branching; however, this is also something that good compilers try to avoid.

IBM did this with some of the PPC chips and the secondary thread was running at about 60% of the primary’s speed.
I do not think its primary purpose was HW support for scouting threads (see Niagara), but primarily a way not to leave execution units unfed if the current thread of execution does not contain a high degree of parallelism at the instruction level (ILP) but there are other threads with work that can start at that moment and run in parallel to what the CPU is doing at the moment (TLP or Thread Level Parallelism).
Its not that simple anymore, because AMD would release their ‘Buldozer’ CPU next year with two threads per core, but it should be a lot MORE efficent then Intel HT because AMD will put TWO integer units instead of just ONE in Intel sollution, which means not 5-20% increase but 100% for integer operations.
Intel implements SMT with its support of HyperThreading while the implementation mentioned in the article, as well as mentioned when we talk about switching threads on bubbles, is SoE MT (Switch on Event MultiThreading).
B) one quad core cpu?
B) one quad core cpu?
Which CPUs? How much heat do they generate? Which caches are shared between cores? Would “two dual core CPUs” be ccNUMA (e.g. Opteron)? If it is ccNUMA does that mean you get 2 memory controllers and twice as much RAM bandwidth? What software would it run – is the software effected by caching and/or memory bandwidth (or just raw processing speed)? Does the software optimise memory allocation for ccNUMA?
What about prices (dual-socket motherboards are typically more expensive)?
Latency, with 2 CPU sockets sharing info from socket to socket the data must be transmitted over the FSB. The same thing happens with the Intel Core 2 Quads as there are 2 dual core CPUs set in the same CPU die, giving you a dual socket solution in a single socket.
Now all AMD quads and the Intel i series quads are real quads, the cores are able to talk to one another directly without having to transmit the data over the FSB.
Sun SPARC Niagara can switch to another thread in one clock cycle, so in effect Niagara does not idle when waiting for data from RAM. It works with another thread.
When common cpus switches thread it takes 100s of clock cycles. That is one of the reasons a normal x86 server waits for data from RAM, 50% of the time – under full load. Under max load, an x86 idles 50% of the time, waiting for data from RAM. According to studies from Intel.
So, a Niagara at 1.4GHz (with 64 threads) can easily beat a POWER6 at 5GHz on multithreaded workloads. Because Niagara does not idle, it just works with another thread.
Todays CPUs are very fast, but RAM is slow. If you have 10GHz cpu, then it will wait 90% of the time for data from RAM. The higher clocked cpus, the more it waits when the pipeline stalls.
There is no such thing as “one cycle” anymore. If you wanted to switch context instantaneously, you’d have to implement something equivalent to HT. And what HT does is not really a context switch – it’s a hardware level emulation of two CPU’s. From the system perspective, it looks like two CPU’s concurrently executing two threads. Except that it is really a single core, executing a single thread, and maybe another thread will have a chance to proceed if the first one happens not to be optimized enough. True in case of “regular” processes, very likely false in case of codecs, numerical procedures etc.
This mechanism interferes with the system scheduler by pretending to do something else than it really does. In certain scenarios (high load with number crunching apps) this may compromise stability of the whole system.
Normally I would take anything on a Dell website with a grain of salt but this time I’m not going to take it at all.
OEMs have been known to make deals with Intel before getting huge rebates and discounts for selling Intel exclusively.
Dell had a site helping you choose between Linux and Windows.
It basically said if you have used a computer before, choose Windows and if you have new to computers, choose Windows. It said choose Linux if you are a computer programmer.
Why would Dell be any better at helping you choose between Intel and AMD? They don’t have an interest in helping you the comsumer… they want to make money.
Would you trust a company that has knowingly sold faulty hardware?
Its really a shame because I would like to read an article about threads vs cores. I’ll just have to wait until Phoronix or Toms Hardware writes one.
Article author has a hard time keeping things straight, and often crosses terminology between HT and multi-cores. Please bring better quality articles to the table.
It was an interesting read. Thumbs up for the article.
Stage 1. CPU. Ages ago, code execution speed was directly related to the CPU clock frequency and to the number of clock cycles per instruction. Memory access was either not a concern at all, or it could be easily alleviated by adding a simple cache. At the same time Moore’s law enabled us to scale clock frequencies and transistor densities exponentially. So far so good. Speeding up the CPU was the solution.
Stage 2. Going super-scalar. So we scaled the operating frequencies up, added some system level techniques like pipelining and additional caches to boost the CPU performance even more and then we hit a problem – a huge difference between a clock cycle duration and memory latency. When executing a typical application code the performance is no longer defined by CPU performance but by memory access delay. CPU works in bursts – 10 clock cycles of program execution – 100 cycles of waiting for data. Many more or less speculative techniques (super-scalar architecture) were developed to predict the data so that the CPU can continue to run with hope it will not have to discard these data all to often. This mechanism, although quite effective, is of course far from being perfect. This is the place where HT fits in by allowing another thread to execute when the original is waiting for memory (at the hardware level).
Stage 3. Copy-paste (multi-cores). All these techniques, combined with pipelining made it increasingly difficult to increase the clock frequency of the CPU. Design complexity, size, power consumption, all scale much worse than linearly with frequency. This is the primary reason why mutli-cores were proposed (and why Pentium 4 was a dead end). Except for IO’s, memory access circuits etc., it’s just like taking a CPU and copy-pasting it a few times. If supported by OS and applications they give a close to linear improvement of performance vs. circuit complexity and power consumption increase.
The cost of multi-threading and HT is the software interface. Most applications are still written as a sequential code and many of algorithms can’t be implemented in parallel. However, where multi-threading actually gives measurable and predictable speedup, HT complicates already over complicated bottleneck part of the CPU and its overall speedup can be as low as 0 if the code executed by the CPU happens to be well optimized (so that it doesn’t stall between memory accesses).
Also, elaborate caching schemes generally don’t play well with multiple CPU’s. It’s less a problem with multi-cores than it used to be with multiple standalone CPU’s but nevertheless, every time we write something to the memory we must make sure that all shadow copies of this memory cell are updated before they make their way into the CPU pipeline.
Stage 4. Performance/watt. System performance is now defined not by frequency, not by memory latency but by power consumption (and sadly enough that’s a physical, not design limitation). As fabrication process scales down single transistors become less power hungry (~linearly) but work at slightly higher frequency and there are much more of them (~quadratically). So the power consumptions is bound to deteriorate unless we start using most of the chip area for a cache (which beyond some point doesn’t improve performance significantly).
Although single-threaded performance of the super-scalar architecture is still the best, it’s slowly becoming a niche application. Many highly parallel applications simply don’t care about it at all. They just want to get maximum data throughput without frying the CPU. Similarly, in the embedded space, battery life is everything + these platforms usually come with some specialized hardware anyway. In these applications, the best way to built a CPU is to use a basic (and thus small and low power) core without any super-scalar extensions (or with just basic ones like static branch prediction etc.) and put many of them on the same chip with some extensive power and clock gating. That’s more in line of what modern GPU’s are nowadays, and this pattern is likely to spread even further as performance/watt becomes important.
Personally I believe OSes is more succinct that OSs. WTF? Who cares?

My existential crisis over turning 30 ended on Amazon.
Welcome to Stress Purchase of the Week: The weekly column where our editors share the items that they’ve bought because Monday Monday-ed, because our inbox can’t to get down to 0, because our dog barfed all over the passenger seat, because that fender bender was totally not my fault, because the Republic is crumbling — because there is nothing the instant gratification of retail therapy won’t fix.
I found turning 30 to be very stressful in a gross, privileged millennial sort of way. But rather than spend some time unpacking why, I took to Amazon and ordered a 1:1 scale replica of Iron Man’s helmet instead.
"WEARABLE!" the advertisement copy boasted.
"I, a fully grown adult woman, need to own this to feel better about myself," I responded, before handing Hasbro $97.88.
Some assembly was required; three AAA batteries needed to be installed which, in turn, needed a Phillips head screwdriver. For the five minutes it took me — sitting cross-legged on our living room floor while my boyfriend watched very patiently — to put everything together, I was basically Tony Stark. And I guess, in some ways, that’s kind of the point.
The author with her very responsible adult purchase.
I’m part of the 82 percent of people more likely to impulse shop when in a bad mood, who don’t regret their purchases, and who experience a mood boost in the act. My purchases aren’t always practical (I own a bayonet for a .58 caliber Civil War era musket; I do not own the musket), but they do always have the intended effect. For what it’s worth, I do feel better after I click that checkout button. Each new superficial purchase means the consideration of an alternate reality that I can lose myself, even if it’s just temporary. There’s a moment of make believe we all engage in when we’re shopping for something that we want vs. something we need, as we visualize what our lives will be like with our new thing. How will I use it? How will I look using it? Where am I going to put it? Will it match my home, align with my current lifestyle? Will I still like it in a month? Does that even matter to me? Even considering these questions, alone, for less than two minutes in a store or in front of your computer is an escape from reality.
When purchasing an Iron Man helmet in lieu of, say, an expensive kitchen gadget or a splurge of a dress, the answers to these questions become odd. How will I use it? Several Amazon reviewers were careful to remind possible buyers that not only will this helmet not help you fight crime, it also won’t protect you if you fall off a motorcycle. It is, at best, an excellent cosplay accessory. At its most practical, it’s a great paperweight, and it does at least fit in well with the TARDIS USB, Star Trek mug, and assorted Funkopops littering my work desk. Otherwise? Well, no one looks good wearing a hundred dollar Iron Man mask. And since I scammed my way through high school and higher-ed without ever taking a physics class, I will never actually be Tony Stark — the superhero or the scientific genius who, at 30, was already 14 years out of college and running a billion dollar company. But he is a fictional character who exists in a universe in which I would probably be dead anyway (The Hulk destroys the entire vicinity of my first Harlem apartment in the first "Avengers" movie), and so maybe I, simply being alive at age 30, am doing just fine.
The helmet came with a brief escape, and perspective. Also, it lights up and makes noises, and two months later, I still think that’s cool, too.
Along with using a screw driver like Tony Stark, I drank like him too.

We’re back at Donalda Club. This is a prestigious golf and country club located in York Mills/Don Mills. It’s a beautiful and convenient venue for a wedding. They also have a very attentive staff that help make a wedding flow as smooth as possible.
This Donalda Club wedding is for Patricia and Tony. They had a larger guest count so we had to use an adjacent overflow room as the main dance floor.
The wedding ceremony was done in the beautiful garden outside.
A view of the head table here at Donalda Club.
Ample space for guests at reception. A smaller dance floor sits in front of the head table. We would only use it temporarily since the main dance floor is in the other room.
Chinese weddings are not complete without games. We had our evening’s Chinese Wedding MC host the shoe game.
It’s time to dance! We kicked it off with slow jams since there were a lot of couples in the crowd.

Since 2015 the RSC and PYF have been working in partnership to bring quality opportunities and experiences to young people in Coventry.
The RSC are keen to target cohorts of young people who have either never engaged in an RSC experience, or those who have felt it something inaccessible to them.
A series of tours, viewings and workshops have been followed up by detailed consultation which continually asks; ‘How can we improve our service, for you and your peers’.
Our PYT were invited to join the RSC Audience Development Forum, giving insight into a customer experience of an evening at the RSC.
Beneficiaries have also enjoyed drama workshops by leading professionals, and private tours of the theatres inner workings.
In October 2016, three young people have been invited to deliver a short speech at the opening of a new exhibition at the Swan Theatre. ‘The Play’s the Thing’ is a new family-friendly visitor attraction which takes visitors behind the making of the RSC’s productions.
In November 2016, eight young people from PYF took over The RSC's new exhibition as part of the national 11-million TakeOver Day (http://www.childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/).

The Crystal Dibber is now joined by the In-Line Crystal Dibber!
Like its multi-award-winning brother, the In-Line Crystal Dibber boasts a transparent body that sets it apart from every other pole float out there. A clear body is much more difficult for a fish to detect, so carp and other shallow-feeding species are less easily spooked.
The clever in-line design really helps to avoid tangles and is also much more difficult to become snagged should a fish run through reed beds and other underwater obstacles. The float is also ideal for repeatedly 'slapping' on the surface to mimic the sound of loose feed.
The domed tips are also extremely buoyant and a great choice for supporting large pellets, dumbells, worms, corn or cubes of meat. A choice of red, orange or yellow Glow Tips ensures it is easy to see at range or against features such as reeds.
The In-Line Crystal Dibber has taken a considerable amount of time and expertise to perfect and takes our unique blow-moulding technology a stage further. The attention to detail is so high that Drennan even tank tests every single float to ensure optimum performance. Another classic example of Drennan precision micro engineering!
Available in 0.2g, 0.4g and 0.6g sizes.
All 'In Stock' orders placed before 1.00pm GMT are dispatched the same day. Orders received after 1.00pm GMT or during the weekend are dispatched the next working day. Find out more about our delivery options.

I do this with wild duck legs, but the sauce is tasty on any sort of poultry leg or wing you can imagine. You can also use it as a BBQ sauce for pork. One optional step I recommend with wild duck and goose legs and wings is to braise the wings in some broth until they are tender before you roast. Follow this recipe's technique, but use the sauce below if you go that route. No need to pre-braise domestic duck legs. You want the skin on the legs here, as it adds a ton of flavor and fat. If you have only skinless legs, you will absolutely need to pre-braise them.
Salt the duck legs well and arrange them skin side up in one layer in a roasting pan or sheet pan. Put them in the oven and set it to 400°F. Don't preheat the oven. You want the temperature to come up gradually so some fat from the ducks renders and moistens the bottom of the pan, so the legs don't stick to it. Roast until tender, about 90 minutes to 2 hours. You might have a few legs that are still tough, but that's part of working with wild food. If you work with domesticated legs, you should only need about an hour. (Note that my oven will take 30 minutes to get to 400°F, so if you have a quick heating oven, start at 350°F for 30 minutes and then jack the heat up.) NOTE: Pre-braised legs will only need about 20 to 30 minutes to crisp up.
Meanwhile, mix the remaining ingredients together in a small pot and warm just enough to incorporate the honey.
When the duck legs are tender, take them out but keep the oven on. Put them into a large bowl (gently, as the meat will be starting to come off the bone) and pour the sauce over them. Carefully toss to combine and put them back on the baking sheet skin side up and return them to the oven. Keep an eye on the wings, and when you start to see a little bit of char on the sauce, which will caramelize quickly, pull them out. Serve with the remainder of the sauce in the mixing bowl.

It seems like I’m really going wild with the “books to TV/movie” reviews lately. Game of Thrones, The Night Circus, Swamplandia, The Wild Things… This time it’s The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick that has received the movie treatment, a book that I loved the first time I read it. Hugo Cabret is a dynamic and unique book, composed of both Selznick’s words and illustrations.
The story I am about to share with you takes place in 1931, under the roofs of Paris. Here you will meet a boy named Hugo Cabret, who once, long ago, discovered a mysterious drawing that changed his life forever.
But before you turn the page, I want you to picture yourself sitting in the darkness, like the beginning of a movie. On screen, the sun will soon rise, and you will find yourself zooming toward a train station in the middle of the city. You will rush through the doors into a crowded lobby. You will eventually spot a boy amid the crowd, and he will start to move through the train station. Follow him, because this is Hugo Cabret. His head is full of secrets, and he’s waiting for his story to begin.
Hugo’s life revolves around clocks. He lives in a train station in Paris and winds the clocks daily, a skill that he has inherited from both his father and uncle. He watches the toyshop across the street from behind the face of a clock in the train station, frequently stealing small windup toys from the counter in order to remove their springs and mechanical parts to use for his own devices. An older man owns the shop, and Hugo notices a young girl who frequently accompanies him at his work. However, on the day that Hugo tries to steal a windup mouse, the owner catches him. The man doesn’t just take back the toy that has been stolen. He steals Hugo’s notebook, entranced by a drawing that he recognizes and notes that, upon looking at it, he feels like the ghosts of memory have found him again.
The drawing in the notebook is of a mechanical man, windup insides exposed, the replica of the actual figure that Hugo guards inside the train station. Hugo’s father once found the figure at the museum he worked at, noting, “It’s a windup figure, like a music box or toy, except it’s infinitely more complicated. I’ve seen a few before, a singing bird in a cage and a mechanical acrobat on a trapeze. But this one is far more complex and interesting than those.” The secret of this one, this automaton, is that it has the ability to write. It holds a pen, and Hugo believes that one it’s wound up, it will write a message. The mechanical man became an obsession for Hugo’s father, and one night he locked himself in the attic of the museum to work on it, succumbing to a fire that engulfed the museum. Hugo is left to live with his uncle, a clockmaker also, yet, at the beginning of Hugo Cabret Hugo’s Uncle Claude has disappeared, leaving Hugo to tend to the clocks of the train station on his own. Now, living alone, it falls to Hugo to continue the work on the automaton. He believes that before his death, his father may have recorded a new message for Hugo alone.
Repairing the automaton brings him in contact with the young girl, Isabelle, and Georges Melies, the toyshop owner. Both attend to the shop, and Hugo begins working there in order to facilitate the return of his notebook. In this way, Selznick weaves together the areas of clockwork, 1930s film, and pre-WWII Paris. Hugo finds out that Isabelle has the key that is needed to wind the automaton, and his relationship with her and Georges Melies progress until he is able to attain the key from Isabelle and watches the message unfold (with an annoyed Isabelle by his side).
But, rather than a message, the automaton draws a picture, one that Hugo discovers is from a Georges Melies movie. The book breaks in half at this point, because, as Alcofrisbas notes, “stories lead to other stories, and this one leads all the way to the moon.” The second half of the story revolves around Melies, and one of the most beautiful sections of the book includes a collection of his illustrations. Melies, haunted by his works in the film industry, does not want the “ghosts” of his past creativity coming back. He tears his pictures apart and shouts, “How could this be mine? I am not an artist! I am nothing! I’m a penniless merchant, a prisoner! A shell! A windup toy!” The two children endeavor to bring Melies back to appreciating his own art. This includes the beautiful chapter, “The Invention of Dreams,” where Hugo takes the subway to the Academie du Cinema Francais and is given an introduction to Melies by Etienne, a friend of Isabelle’s.
The novel ultimately draws Etienne (who loves Melies’ films and thought that the filmmaker was dead), Isabelle, and Hugo together to help Melies return to his art. The mysterious origins of the automaton are revealed. The intricacies of heartbreak, loss, and shutting the door on the past are threaded throughout the separate experiences of Hugo, Isabelle, and Melies. The visual images capture character while the story fills in other details. Watching the images zoom in on Melies the first time that he is introduced to the story show a hopelessness and loss in his eyes that is not explained or explored until much later in the novel. The fact that both Isabelle and Hugo have lost their parents is lessened when they find each other. Art and looking towards creativity (and reading! Isabelle frequents a small Parisian bookstore that Hugo begins to visit, and the spine by spine illustrations of close space and too many books are magnificent) seem to be Selznick’s answers, both of which are carefully laid out in a series of artistic forms in the book. Not only does Selznick use words and images, but he also calls upon the crafts of clockwork and filmmaking that round out other options for expressing creativity. This creativity brings respite to the characters in the story and allows them to push their pain into something tangible, meaningful, and beautiful.
Again, Selnick’s Wonderstruck just came out a few months ago, but I still prefer Hugo Cabret. Hugo Cabret shows how art can be created out of a painful and isolated place, but that it enacts a sort of connection and beauty that shows a transition from one form to the other. It is a brilliant work of art in itself, using this medium to express something important about creating. I haven’t gone to see the movie yet, but I’m really looking forward to seeing where it takes the book, and if Selznick’s thread of creativity stays in tact.

This incredible story is about an abandoned boy whose father died tragically in a fire. The father of the boy had stayed late working on an extraordinary project called the ¿mechanical man.¿ Everything in the room excluding his father burned to ashes but one thing was left. The ¿mechanical man¿ it was not in good shape after the fire but at least there was something that was saved. Hugo had gotten one of his father¿s notebooks for his birthday which had drawings of the mechanical man and what pieces go where. Hugo had a great idea¿ to try and recreate the mechanical man.

Every 9.62 days, there is an equivalent amount of casualties in Iraq & Afghanistan as September 11th.
There are 9.65 Virginia Tech shootings in Iraq & Afghanistan everyday.
There are 1.61 Madrid bombings in Iraq & Afghanistan everyday.
In 11 days as many Iraqi & Afghani civilians are killed as the entire amount of American military personnel killed since the invasion of Afghanistan in 2002 and the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Note: There is some discrepancy between various sources on the amount of civilian casualties since the US-led invasion in March 2003. A study in October of 2006 listed over 650,000 killed (see Washington Post article below) while other sources vary from 400,000 to just over 60,000 (see British-government funded Iraq Body Count below). I computed 250,000 by averaging several sources, though I personally feel this is a low number.
Update: The differing methodologies among these studies led to these wide variations. For example, the lowest figure from IBC is based solely on media reports of violent deaths, while the Lancet study surveyed random families in Iraq and includes non-violent war related deaths, such as those dead to lawlessness and collapsed infrastructure. I computed 250,000 to use as a useful estimate by averaging these sources, though I personally feel this is a low number when talking about the impact of the US invasion on Iraq.

Count cells within a radius for a single field.
Count the number of from cells having a to cell within radius microns in tissue category category. Compute the average number of to cells within radius of from cells.
A data frame with Cell X Position, Cell Y Position and Phenotype columns, such as the result of calling read_cell_seg_data.
Selection criteria for the rows and columns. Accepts all formats accepted by select_rows.
The radius or radii to search within.
Optional tissue category to restrict both from and to.
Optional distance matrix corresponding to csd, produced by calling distance_matrix.
The value of radius for this row.
The number of from cells found in csd.
The number of to cells found in csd.
The number of from cells with a to cell within radius.
The average number of to cells found within radius microns of each from cell.
For each from cell, count the number of to cells within radius microns. Report the number of from cells containing at least one to cell within radius as from_with. Report the average number of to cells per from cell as within_mean.
count_within counts cells within a single field. It will give an error if run on a merged cell seg data file. To count cells in a merged file, use group_by and do to call count_within for each sample in the merged file. See the Examples.
There are some subtleties to the count calculation.
It is not symmetric in from and to. For example the number of tumor cells with a macrophage within 25 microns is not the same as the number of macrophages with a tumor cell within 25 microns.
from_count*within_mean is not the number of to cells within radius of a from cell, it may count to cells multiple times.
Surprisingly, from_count*within_mean is symmetric in from and to. The double-counting works out.
To aggregate within_mean across multiple samples (e.g. by Slide ID) see the examples below.
If category is specified, all reported values are for cells within the given tissue category. If category is NA, values are reported for the entire data set.
radius may be a vector with multiple values.

Major arms imports in the Middle East rose by 86 percent between the periods of 2007-2011 and 2012-2016 and by 7.7 percent in Asia and Oceania.
Nicaragua held elections Sunday that look certain to hand another term to popular President Daniel Ortega, and make his wife Rosario Murillo vice-president, but which the opposition said was marked by “massive” voter abstention and the US Department has described as “rigged”.
Sudan’s National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS) on Sunday has seized copies of three daily newspapers from the printing house without stating reasons. Press sources in Khartoum said that the newspapers were likely confiscated for publishing news reports criticizing the government decision to raise fuel and electricity price.
Police killings of Kenyans are on the rise, a Kenyan newspaper said on Sunday, as it published the country's first comprehensive database detailing hundreds of such alleged killings in the past two years.
Guatemalan prosecutors began presenting evidence on Tuesday to bring charges against over 50 defendants, including former President Otto Perez Molina and former Vice President Roxana Baldetti, for a massive multi-million dollar government corruption scandal involving a slew of crimes including money laundering, bribery, and illegal campaign financing.

As the humanitarian situation in Yemen continues to deteriorate, the international community is increasingly questioning the involvement of external government actors there. Particularly under the microscope is the U.S. government, whose support to Yemen over the past decade has largely been in the form of military and police aid to fight al-Qaeda.
In Pakistan alone, the U.S. has carried out 391 air strikes since 2008, according to The Long War Journal. In Yemen, U.S. strikes targeting al-Qaida commanders total 145 since 2002. The figures are based on press reports. Human rights groups have long called for hard numbers when it comes to counterterrorism strikes that until recently the administration refused to even confirm. “Saying ‘just trust us, we have high standards, we are doing the best we can’ really isn’t enough and that they need to be disclosing more,” said Rita Siemion of Human Rights First.
The United States is on track to spend more than $600 billion on the military this year -- more, that is, than was spent at the height of President Ronald Reagan’s Cold War military buildup, and more than the military budgets of at least the next seven nations in the world combined.
Since September 11, the U.S. government has overseen a massive expansion in Pentagon-funded aid to foreign security forces, moving from $800 million in FY 2001 to more than $10.8 billion in FY 2015. However, a string of reports and articles over the past year have highlighted serious concerns with these efforts.

Hello, !
Hello, !
How the Demand for Primary Care Is Changing...
Primary care is a hot area in terms of opportunities for job seekers.
Demand for primary care physicians (PCPs) is high, and supply is low, which translates to a new hiring environment for candidates and employers alike. The industry is seeing more innovative offers that involve unique work environments and creative compensation packages, as clinicians are seeking contracts that stand out in terms of incentives, pay and more flexible work schedules.
Whether seeking employment by a health system or a partnership track in a private practice, physicians are looking for career opportunities that fit their lifestyle. They expect to be busy, but not overwhelmed—and of course they want to be well compensated.
It’s like a buyer’s market; with more open positions and fewer primary care physicians to go around, today’s candidates are more likely to get what they want. Thus, employers are having to make some adjustments or face significant consequences. When primary care positions go unfilled, not only do the communities suffer from not having enough providers to deliver care, but the hospitals suffer financially as physicians are significant economic engines for hospitals.
What’s behind the high level of demand in primary care?
Changing priorities. The country’s growing emphasis on disease prevention, chronic care and new health care delivery models rely heavily on primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
Trends toward specialization. A large percentage of new physicians are choosing specialties outside of primary care due to higher average salaries that can more quickly pay off medical school loans, etc.
A growing shortage of physicians in primary care. Statisticians note that the number of physicians hasn’t kept up with the growth in population, and by 2030, the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) has projected a shortfall of between 14,800 and 49,300 primary care physicians.
The aging of America. Older patients need more healthcare services, and approximately 10,000 Americans turn 65 every day, according to Pew Research. Baby boomer physicians are also expected to start retiring in record numbers over the next few years.
We’ve already seen the effects of changing supply and demand in our own job placements at Merritt Hawkins.
For instance, 2018 represented the 12th year in a row that family medicine physicians topped the list of the most requested specialties among thousands of search assignments across the country. Nurse practitioners—the vast majority of which are in primary care—were the third most-requested placement, followed by internists at No. 4; pediatricians ranked a little farther down the list at No. 13. This data was gathered for our annual Review of Physician and Advanced Practitioner Recruiting Incentives.
Richer, more diverse compensation packages. We have seen a steady increase in starting salaries in primary care over the last few years. The 2018 Review found the average starting salary for primary care physicians was $244,000, up from $228,000 in 2016. In addition, employers are offering richer compensation packages in terms of insurance, paid time off, CME allowances and student loan forgiveness.
New sign-on bonuses. Although the concept has been around for some time, we are seeing new models for how sign-on bonuses are being constructed. The average sign-on bonus for primary care physicians was $30,035, according to the 2018 Review, however we are seeing some offers with signing bonuses of $100,000+ with a retention component, where the physician may need to stay five years in order to collect the full bonus.
More flexible schedules. In the 2018 Survey of America’s Physicians, conducted for The Physicians Foundation by Merritt Hawkins, 78% of physicians said they experience burnout on some level. The attention to work–life balance and concern about physician burnout have forced healthcare employers to offer more flexible schedules, like 4-day workweeks, either with full-time hours or for .8 FTE positions with full benefits. Others options involve working slightly longer days and getting an extra day off every other week. A favorite perk for candidates is often the ability to pick the schedule they prefer.
Medical scribes, dedicated staff and other special services. According to The Physicians Foundation survey, 39% of physicians revealed that electronic medical records are the most dissatisfying aspect of practicing medicine. In light of this reality, more groups are offering medical scribes or other staff to relieve physicians of some of these responsibilities. Some practices also offer a dedicated NP or PA to support a physician’s practice. And in some situations, the availability of hospitalists can allow a primary care physician to maintain true “office hours” with no call, or limited call, in an outpatient practice.
Specialized interests within primary care. No two jobs, or two candidates, are exactly alike. For instance, some family practitioners may prefer roles that include obstetrics, or may have an interest in providing telemedicine services. If candidates are seeking a certain type of experience or practice model, our recruiting consultants are finding employers who are more and more willing to accommodate them.
At Merritt Hawkins we have the privilege of placing primary care physicians in opportunities across the nation and it is clear that the market is changing. As the demand for primary care physicians increases, hospital leadership and physician recruiters must continue to evolve their strategies to attract doctors and remain competitive.

Chocolate!
who doesn’t want free recipes??
Chocolate!
Make ahead mashed potatoes are perfect for holiday meals! These Creamy Italian Mashed Potatoes are packed with flavor and so easy to throw together. After whipping the potatoes, you put them in a casserole dish and bake til crispy. It’s so good!
Saturday afternoon, Eric and I piled everyone into the car to head to my niece and nephew’s joint baptism ceremony. We even managed to get the usual Saturday night bath in early, so everyone was looking particularly spiffy. (Well. Except Valentine. She napped through the bath and looked like a baby Einstein.) But never mind that, most of us looked great.
That is, until we were about halfway there, and I looked down and realized that below my long maxi skirt I was wearing fuzzy socks and Eric’s 3-year-old moccasin slippers.
It was too late to go back. We would miss the ceremony. I was panicking. I can’t walk into the church wearing SLIPPERS!!!
Thanks Eric. Thanks a lot.
I suppose this is karma for stealing Eric’s slippers all the time. My house is cold, okay?! Seriously though, it has been raining nonstop this week. It’s like California finally got the memo that it’s supposed to be winter, just in time for spring.
Speaking of spring, did you know that Easter is only in eighteen days?? How did this happen?? Early Easters always throw me off!
I’ve got you covered for mashed potatoes! This recipe is one that I’ve been meaning to try out for years. A reader left a comment on this Mashed Potatoes recipe that her grandma used to make creamy mashed potatoes with cream cheese and dry Italian dressing mix. Then she would bake them til crispy. It sounds amazing, right?? It is. We absolutely loved these potatoes.
I love that they are baked, because you still get super creamy mashed potatoes underneath the crispy topping, but you can make them up to a day in advance. I am slowly learning over the years just how much finesse it takes to pull off a perfect holiday meal where everything is still warm but nothing is dried out. It’s tough! I’m still not there! But dishes like these make ahead mashed potatoes make it a lot easier. At least you don’t have to worry about dried out (or stone cold!) mashed potatoes! Just leave them in a warm oven until it’s time to eat.
Check out my Easter Flavors board on Pinterest for more holiday meal ideas!

Make ahead side dishes are perfect for holiday meals! These Creamy Italian Mashed Potatoes are packed with flavor and so easy to throw together. After whipping the potatoes, you put them in a casserole dish and bake til crispy. It's so good!
Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat while you peel and chop the potatoes. Chop them into 1 or 2 inch chunks.
Chop the onion and the garlic.
Add the potatoes, onion, and garlic to the water, even if it's not boiling yet. Leave the heat on high until the water starts boiling, then reduce to a medium simmer.
Boil for about 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are very tender.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Drain well.
Add the cream cheese, butter, 2 packets of Italian dressing mix, and Chicken Base.
Use a hand mixer to beat the potatoes. This should only take about 2 minutes.
Taste the potatoes and see if you want to add any salt and pepper.
Use your spoon to create wave and divets on the surface of the potatoes.
Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon additional dry Italian dressing mix. If you don't have another packet, or think it's annoying to have an open package in your cupboard, then skip it and just sprinkle on some Italian seasoning. I did both!
Bake at 400 degrees F for about 20-30 minutes, until the top has developed a layer that is as crispy as you like it.
Serve immediately.
Follow instructions through step 12 (put the potatoes in the casserole dish and top with seasoning). Cover tightly and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to bake, remove the cover and bake at 400 for 30-45 minutes, until hot and the top has become crispy.
If you make this recipe, share it on Instagram using the hashtag #TheFoodCharlatan so I can see it!

I absolutely adore you, Karen! I get so excited when I see you have a new blog post, and you never disappoint! Between your stories and wonderful recipes, I know I’m in for a treat, and you didn’t disappoint today! LOL about the slippers! We have been in Santa Cruz for three weeks, and this rain……😫. We are transplanting 25 rose plants from S.C. to Sacramento on Sunday, and I’m really hoping the rain holds off for a few days. These potatoes seem like an excellent idea to eat after the transplanting is completed. I think I’ll be needing warm comfort food! Thanks for another great recipe!
Thank you so much for reading Collette!! I love hearing from you! What are you transplanting roses for?? Sounds like an adventure!
We transplanted 25 roses from my mother-in-law’s garden to my brother-in-law’s garden. My sweet mother-in-law passed away 11 months ago, and her house just sold. Her rose garden was her pride and joy……well, behind her dog and kids, and we jokingly say it was in that order. I’m so thankful the weather cooperated and provided just the right weather during the transplanting. We just finished transplanting the roses so are going to stay in Sacramento tonight, so I’m going to go to the grocery store and look for the Marques Brothers sauce you used in your Cafe Rio recipe and the curry sauce you used in a recipe not too long ago. I looked for the items in the small town we live in, but couldn’t find either, so I’ve been waiting to look while here.
I hope Valentine’s pink eye is better. She is so cute, and oh my goodness is she growing up quickly!
Wow moving 25 rosebushes sounds like quite the task! I’m glad everything went as planned! I’m sorry to hear about your mother in law. They have a really special place in our hearts. And it is so true, the days are long but the years are short! That describes it perfectly. I hope you have/had fun cooking and that everything turned out!!
Isn't eating just so much fun? But listen, I'm no chef. Fake it til you make it, I say!

What is Joomla?
If you have any 'mechanical' forum or Joomla! sites related issues/suggestions with joomla.org, community.joomla.org, forum.joomla.org, vel.joomla.org.
READ ME <-- please read before posting, this means YOU.
Can anyone from the incorporation tell me if the registering of the Joomla trademark (Trade Mark : 1073509) in Australia is being done on behalf of OSM please? If so, what are the plans for allowing any of us to use the word on our sites when we are promoting our work? The trademark ends with, "provision of the aforementioned services over a global computer network or any other communications network of any kind" which seems to imply that Joomla cannot be used anywhere on the Net without running into legal problems.
I'm unaware of this... will find out what I can tomorrow and let you know.

Blast! I was hoping you were NOT going to say that!
The owner is a lawyer and his site uses Joomla, so I was hoping he was doing this on behalf of OSM. The implications are not good otherwise. I am not sure how enforceable this "global computer network" inclusion is as trademarks are on a per country basis, but even so, having a site viewable in Australia and offering services that include Joomla there would be infringing on the trademark. Whether a legal statement that Joomla is a trademark of xyz but does not relate to Joomla the cms would wash, I just dont know. Might pay to check with the lawyers guys.
Edit: I note the trademark comes into effect in July.
I just want to confirm that this trademark application has been taken been taken out of behalf of and as a donation to Joomla (thankyou).
If anyone has any concerns like this I suggest you use the contact us form on the OSM site rather than posting open questions/speculation on the forums.
On matters of trademark rules/enforcement, etc, that is something that is still in the melting pot and is in need of much thoughtful and balanced consideration, and obviously legal advice which I'm sure the SFLC and others are more than adequately capable of providing at the appropriate time.
http://www.kiva.org/team/joomla - Got Joomla for free? Pay it forward and help fight poverty.
Excuse me Andrew - what speculation? I asked two questions only, and received response from two core team members, one of whom is a director of OSM. I would have asked OSM directly but last time I looked there was no contact form on the site. There is now, I can see that, but without any notice on the forum saying that OSM/Joomla matters are to be directed there I was not aware that this is how you prefer to have communication. If I had asked OSM directly, how would that have given me any different response when clearly at least one of the directors was not aware of this donation. I asked my question in the most appropriate forum, I did not put it into a general discussion area, nor did I think that public information needed to be kept off forum. The trademark application and setting up of OSM started last September. The trademark comes into force in July - which only gives business people three months in which to find out how the trademark will be allowed to be used and adjust their business practices accordingly. In a business cycle, this is a very short window of time.
Sorry, I was mixing your first and second post. Indeed, you were only speculating (where my use of speculation does not carry any insidious tone, rather, guess: a message expressing an opinion based on incomplete evidence) about the intent of the applicant in your second posting. He's quite a nice chap - good taste in music.
As for the rest, more information will be available when it becomes available (if that makes sense) because others are more learned as to where this process is up to than I (we don't all know everything about each other at any moment in time - Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle).

I have been a longtime user of Debian and as an IP lawyer was concerned to see that the brand wasn't hijacked while the Open Source Matters, Inc organisation was being finalised. So I raised the issue and took steps to protect the brand while the Core Devs had other issues to deal with and were finalising the OSM structure. (BTW the Debian TM policy is at http://www.debian.org/News/1998/19980306a - but OSM may wish to take a different approach).
Anyway, with the news that OSM has been constituted as a not-for-profit we can now transfer the trade mark as planned. We were pleased to donate the time and pay the $420 in government fees to secure the mark as a small token of our appreciation for all the hard work the Core Devs and other community members have put into creating such a fantastic product!
The assignment of the mark should be finalised in the next few days.

Thanks mixed - I was hoping that this was the case. I first asked about the trademark last September - at the time, if you remember, there were a number of discussions going on about how Joomla could be protected. I've been watching and waiting to see what happened about the mark you registered, but as time is getting close now to it being activated I was getting a little concerned.
Debian's trademark use rules are similar to a number of organisations and prohibits the use of the mark in domain names not owned by them. If this was to be the approach OSM took, there are a lot of people who need to take advice over their prior use rights. There are many people for whom complying with a trademark is not an issue, but for those of us in business, three months will go very quickly and I hope we don't have to live with uncertainty for too long.
It is reassuring that the registration of this mark is for OSM (and a great gesture on your part). Thanks for posting.
Any news on this yet?
[quote="Elpie"]...the trademark comes into force in July...[/quote] which is now, and [quote="mixed"]...The assignment of the mark should be finalised in the next few days....[/quote]is there anything available for reading somewhere about this? what about Europe and the US?
