{"text": "18.02.2019\nKolloq. Leonardo Linguaglossa, topic: High-speed NFV: performance evaluation and modeling\n18 Feb 2019 17:00, FMI 03.07.023 (MI-Building, Campus Garching)\nAbstract\nNetwork Functions Virtualization (NFV) is among the latest network revolutions, bringing flexibility and avoiding network ossification. While NFV provides a flexible way of implementing network functions on commodity hardware, an all-software NFV implementation may present a performance gap with respect to hardware-based solutions. In the last decade numerous software acceleration techniques have appeared to bring high-speed capabilities to software network frameworks, thus trying to reduce the distance w.r.t. pure hardware solutions. Batching is one example of such techniques, consisting in processing packets in groups as opposed to individually, which is required at high-speed to minimize the framework overhead, reduce interrupt pressure, and leverage instruction-level cache hits. Whereas several system implementations have been proposed and experimentally benchmarked, the scientific community has so far only to a limited extent attempted to model the system dynamics of modern NFV routers exploiting batching acceleration. We fill this gap by proposing a simple generic model for such batching-based mechanisms, which allows a very detailed prediction of highly relevant performance indicators. These include the distribution of the processed batch size as well as queue size, which can be used to identify loss-less operational regimes or quantify the packet loss probability in high-load scenarios. In this talk I will present our experimental campaign for performance evaluation using a state-of-the-art NFV router, namely VPP. Then I will introduce our model for a generic NFV router. We contrast the model prediction with experimental results gathered in our testbed, showing that the model not only correctly captures system performance under simple conditions, but also in more realistic scenarios in which traffic is processed by a mixture of functions. rials will be discussed.\nBio\nLeonardo Linguaglossa is currently a post-doctoral researcher at Telecom PairsTech (France) working in a collaboration with Cisco named \"NewNet@Paris\". In 2018/2019 he is working in a joint collaboration between TPT and TUM with a project named \"AI4P\" (Artificial Intelligence for Performance). Leonardo's main research interests include high-speed networking, future network architectures (NFV, SDN), performance evaluation and modeling.\nProf. Dr.-Ing.

One of the...\nIn the recent days, some senators think that there is a possible c0rruption happened during the purchase of anti-covid vaccine. One of them was Senator Ping Lacson. In his speech, Senator Lacson said that there was an attempt to raise the price of Sinovac Vaccine.\n“Easily, I am reminded of an old story of how c0rruption is committed in three Southeast Asian countries – under the table; on the table; including the table… True to their tactic, ‘If you cannot convince them, confuse them,’ our vaccine program officials brought more confusion and bewilderment in their rush to procure Sinovac. Unluckily for them, we do not get confused easily… That being said, I am not prepared to accu*se anyone in particular of c0rruption. Rather, it defies logic to susp3ct at least an attempt to overprice the vaccine. Again, when there is an attempt at overpricing, isn’t it also logical to think somebody will profit from this with so much cash?” said Lacson.\nPresident Rodrigo Roa Duterte did not missed the senators' sweeping remarks. The President said that c0rruption may be in the yard of lawmakers.\n“So about time na you just — a little bit — i-ano ninyo ‘yang utak sa c0rruption-c0rruption. I don’t know why are you so occupied sa mga c0rruption. Now, maghanap kayo hindi dito, baka sa inyo. Baka sa departamento ninyo, hindi dito sa akin,” according to the Chief Executive.\nThe President also explained how the vaccine purchase process works. “So ang gawain natin until the last minute. Ito sabihin ulit ni (Vaccine Czar) General Galvez sa inyo ‘yan. Hindi iyan mabayaran hanggang hindi dumaan kay (Finance Secretary) Dominguez pati sa akin. Naintindihan ninyo? Walang pakialam diyan… All that Galvez can do is just to come to an agreement as representative or agent of the Republic of the Philippines. He has no say sa bayaran kung saan because it is purely pap. Kung maintindihan ninyo,” said the president.\nRead the reaction from the netizens on President Rodrigo Roa Duterte's remark to Senator Lacson's statement:"}

{"text": "Hi there. Hey, watch your step, we’re on the edge. A friend of mine recently equated that concept with “dancing on the rim of a cup.” She said that the key to successful Christian living is “finding the balance” in each aspect of life. That phrase, however, could lead one to think of standing still, when, in reality, life is actually balancing while moving, like walking on a tightrope.\nShe said that we “stand still” when we repeat personal tradition—not past mistakes, but something we did that was successful, which we then mindlessly repeat in completely different circumstances or context simply because it worked before. That is being lazy rather than alert to what God might have in mind for us now. It is relying on past success rather than being fearlessly alive in Christ in the moment. To her, that is what it means to dance on the rim of a cup, and it is a beautiful thing.\nLet’s stay in this metaphor a bit longer. For each of us as Christians, the moment of our New Birth went something like this: There you were, sitting alone in the darkness just off the dance floor, a drooping wallflower, watching others enjoying themselves and each other. The bandleader announced, “Last dance!” and as they played, you wondered if you would ever get to dance before the music stopped and the lights went out. Just then you looked up, and smiling into your eyes was The Man of your dreams, the Lord Jesus Christ, whose loving invitation pierced the walls around your heart: “May I have this dance for the rest of your life?”\nYou took his hand, and since that moment your Christian life has been a “dance” that is, a reciprocal relationship with the Lord. He not only leads, he also teaches us our part, and helps us follow, when we choose to do so. There is no question that he will do his part, and when we do our part, it looks like the winning Olympic ice dancing team (and we won’t get cheated out of our medal by crooked judges!).\nIn 2001 I learned some “new steps,” if you will. Being away from ministry, I needed to earn money by doing some other kind of work than what I had done for 32 years, i.e., studying and teaching the Bible, traveling, writing, counseling (in person, by phone, email, and letter), and administrating the work of the ministry. At this point, please grant me a brief digression, which I am launching into for the benefit of others who I hope will come after me in this ministry as full time ministers to God’s people.\nIsn’t being a minister of the Gospel just as valid an occupation as any other legitimate form of work? Biblically, yes. The fact that some “ministers” are virtually extorting money from their congregations while providing little service to them does not negate what Scripture says about this subject. My audio teaching titled The Joy of Giving lays out what the Bible says about personal giving, and also addresses the issue of one who genuinely ministers the Word being supported by those who give in response to a blessing, the blessing of his life and ministry to them. If you are at all hazy on this, please listen to it and let us know what you think.\nThe truth is that if we in this ministry are ever going to come anywhere near spreading the true Gospel around the world, we will need many more people working “full time” and being paid to do the work so that they can get groceries, etc. Some will be teachers, some administrators, some writers and editors, some translators, some data entry, some secretaries, etc., etc., etc. Might that be you? How else will the work get done? What else will we need? Some people committed to the mission and vision of our ministry making lots of money and exercising their ministry of giving, as per Romans 12:8. Might that be you?\nEnd of digression—thank you for your patience. Back to my job search. So, last year a dear pal hooked me up with a once-upon-a-previous-lifetime friend who for the past 14 years in South Carolina has pioneered an SAT prep course called Strategies for Success. He was most gracious in encouraging me and training me to teach the course, which, as of 2010, I am still doing. It has turned out to be one of the greatest blessings from God in my entire life. I can earn money doing comedy for deranged yutes.\nIn light of our focus in this ministry on the importance of using words precisely, teaching the Verbal section of the course was much easier and more interesting than teaching the Math section. A vocabulary-building strategy we teach is called “Latin for Dummies—The Rule of Four or Five Letters.” It helps kids exponentially increase their vocabularies without having to spend a lot of time memorizing words, although that’s great too.\nTake the word “surreptitious,” if you don’t know what that means. What four or five letters do you see in the word you don’t know that are used in any other words you do know? If you can find them, you then have at least some idea of what the word means. Usually they are not the prefix or suffix, so start by looking in the middle somewhere. See ‘em? R-E-P-T-I. Oh yeah, like in “reptile.” Like a snake that slithers up next to you. Right. “Surreptitious” means “done by stealth,” or “sneaky.”\nThis is a Christian publication, so let’s take the (KJV) biblical word “circumspectly.” Most high school kids do not know what it means. Hey, no problem, if you know Latin for Dummies and use The Rule of Four or Five Letters. At least you can get some idea of the meaning. OK, go for it—what do you see? C-I-R-C? Right on. What “circ” words do you know? Circle, circus, circuit, circuitous, circular, circulation, and lots of words that begin, like “circumspect,” with “circum” as a prefix. What is the basic connotation? Around.\nOK, “circumspectly” has something to do with “around,” but hold it—isn’t there another group of four or five letters that can help us? Do you think it’s E-C-T-L-Y? No. You can probably see S-P-E-C-T, and you no doubt can think of spectator, spectacle, spectacular, and spectrum. And the connotation is? Looking. So “circumspectly” has something to do with looking around.\nActually, S-P-E-C is more precise than S-P-E-C-T, because if we start with S-P-E-C, we won’t miss words like species, special, specific, and speculate? Think about it. In Genesis, on the sixth day, how did Adam name the animals? With his eyes closed? No, he LOOKED at them, and determined their “species” by what he saw. That made each species “special,” that is, it LOOKED different from the others. Cool, huh?\nWhat is on my heart to share with you is a brief Bible teaching based upon some S-P-E-C words. I thought of this some time ago when I was asking myself, “What do you expect, John?” Have you ever asked yourself that question? Sometimes you ask it after you have done something stupid (or someone else asks it to you). But when asked looking forward, it can open a door to profitable self-introspection as to the degree of your faith.\nWhat do I expect—from God? The prefix “ex” means “out from,” and the “s” is dropped from S-P-E-C-T to form the word “expect.” Therefore it has something to do with “looking out from.” Sure, and we are to be looking out from ourselves at the promises of God, with faith that they are going to come to pass. Used only in Romans 8:19 and Philippians 1:20, the Greek word translated “waits” and “eagerly expect” literally means “anxious looking with outstretched head.” I want that to be the posture of my faith in my heavenly Father.\nI want to be like the lame man at the Temple gate in Acts 3, who was “expecting to receive something” from Peter and John. I want to be like Paul when he was on the ship in a storm in Acts 27:25 and he was expecting that things would turn out “just as God told him.” OK, so I had best see God as big as I can, right? How can I do that? Maybe by “MAGNIFYING” Him. That is, making Him look bigger to me. The bigger He looks, the smaller the obstacles look in comparison.\nPerhaps you have heard it said that the Israelites looked at Goliath and compared him to themselves. They then ran away from him. But David looked at the same giant and compared him to GOD. He then ran toward the pipsqueak (comparatively) to take him out. Sounds like it was pretty much all about vision, that is, their perSPECTive of the situation, and what each ex-SPECTed. The Israelites figured Goliath was too big to hit. David figured he was too big to miss!\nThe bigger I see God, the more I will enter in like David did to do his part, knowing that God will make up the difference. The smaller I see God, the more I am a SPECTator in life, which I do not want to be! I want to get in the action, but I know it is a spiritual battle. I don’t want to make a SPECTacle of myself, so I must walk circumSPECTly, looking around and paying diligent attention to what is going on inside of me and outside of me, and I must be SPECific about it. I can’t afford to SPECulate when I can know for sure from God’s Word.\nThe more I build a relationship of trust with God and the Lord Jesus, the better my relationships with other people will be. One of my goals is to reSPECT each person who enters my world. Obviously, “reSPECT” has something to do with “looking again.” I’m usually pretty good about esteeming someone to the end of being kind to him, but I need to improve at looking again (and again) to see the gift that he or she can be to my life.\nThe more I MAGNIFY God, the more He magnifies me, and the more SPECial I look to those around me, that is, they see the fruit of the spirit in my life. Some might even call it SPECTacular, that is, worth looking at—and having in their own lives. When I trust God and act on His Word, the more SPECial I realize that I am to God and the Lord Jesus Christ. Being of the SPECies called “Christian” takes on greater meaning for me and inspires me to want to glorify my Father. And the result? When I stand at the judgment seat of Christ, he will look back on the SPECTrum of my life and reward me richly.\nI’ll be looking forward to seeing you there, too."}
{"text": "U.K. electronic duo Darkstar’s debut LP, North, displays an astonishing level of growth and maturity when compared to their earlier hyperkinetic dubstep material. Grime and dubstep are touchstones, especially on the title track, but songs like “Under One Roof” and “Deadness” hearken back to David Bowie and Brian Eno’s collaborations from the late ‘70s. Carefully subdued drum sounds and synths slowly push the songs forward, overwhelming the listener at a glacier’s pace rather than with a tidal wave. When electronic music switches off the drum machines and slows down the incessant beeps and swirls, there’s a tendency for it to be written off as “intelligent dance music,” a term that has been derided by many electronic music pioneers, including Aphex Twin, but slow doesn’t mean dull, and each of James Young and Aiden Whalley’s tracks has its own style and pace, which prevents monotony from sinking in.\nThe glitchy “Aidy’s Girl Is a Computer” was released as a single two years ago to critical acclaim and is wisely included on North, but “When It’s Gone” is the strongest track on the album, and would make an excellent follow-up single. The song’s double-tracked vocals make a somber pledge to distant love, treated enough to have a slightly alien feel, but a welcomed bit of human touch comes courtesy of a hypnotic keyboard groove. This balance between the electronic and the organic is essential to North‘s success, as electronica’s reliance on computer-created sounds is typically cited as the reason it can feel cold and lifeless.\nWhile the first of these musical qualities is readily apparent on North, the album is also full of emotion—sometimes brooding, sometimes thoughtful and reflective. Call it baroque electronica. If Sufjan Stevens and Fleet Foxes are able to give credibility and respect to pop music today the way the Beatles, the Kinks, and others did before them, then Darkstar has the potential to join the ranks of other seminal artists who have given electronic music a deeper dimension."}

{"text": "Sometime a garage door doesn’t just break or stop working, worn rollers can cause the entire garage door to fall out of its tracks. This happens to Newport News, VA homeowners at very inappropriate times. This urgency may tempt you to attempt a garage door repair yourself, but this can be a bad idea for many reasons. Here are some important reasons you should always trust a professional for roller garage door repairs in Newport News, VA.\nSafety\nThe number one reason to trust a professional to repair your garage door is for your safety. Garage doors contain some very dangerous components that can seriously injure someone attempting to repair the door specially without experience. The torsion springs and roller brackets hold tremendous amounts of tension and could result in major injury or damage to the door if repaired improperly. In addition, thousands of people sustain injuries every year when attempting to maneuver the heavy door during repairs.\nMoney Savings\nYou’ll save money in the long run when hiring a professional to repair your damage door rollers. Improper repairs can cause other areas of the door to fail, resulting in more costly repairs or premature door replacement. A faulty garage door due to improper repairs could also result in liability costs in the future if someone else is injured by the door.\nWarranty\nA warranty that a garage door company will likely offer will provide you with not just money savings. You’ll also have peace of mind that your garage door was repaired properly and won’t be experiencing further problems due to the same issue. Make sure that company is replacing with high quality parts. With J&S garage door parts your really do get what you pay for. One-year warranty vs a lifetime warranty makes all the difference.\nTime Savings\nFinally, you’ll save a lot of valuable time when hiring a professional garage door company. They have the experience, expertise, tools, and knowledge necessary to address whatever problems your garage door is having. You won’t have to spend hours looking for DIY videos and the repair will be done in a fraction of the time so that you can once again enjoy the convenience of a functional garage door. J&S overhead garage door service even offers same day garage door roller repairs."}

{"text": "A couple of months ago, Marco tried a few battles in the newest entry in Creative Assembly's long-running strategy series, Total War Saga: Troy. Then, more recently, I tried the first few hours of the campaign. After that, I had the chance to talk with two devs from CA Sofia, Milcho Vasilev (Senior Game Designer) and Victor Dosev (Lead Game Designer), and you can read the full transcription of that interview below. During our conversation, we discussed the new systems added to the game, in particular, the divine will mechanic that has you worshipping gods for certain bonuses, as well as how the studio is going to explore the iconic siege and all the mythology that comes with it, and how the studio has balanced mythology and realism on the battlefield. Check it out, and keep scrolling down for our earlier interview with game director Maya Georgieva.\nGamereactor: So I have a few questions, but many of them are because this felt very Total War at the beginning, but I can also see that there are so many new systems in there - the resources and the divine will, for example - and I'm interested in hearing more about them because I just didn't get a sense of how they're going to feel at the end of the game when you've played a lot more than 30-odd turns, which is all I got to see. Can you please give me a couple of examples of how prayers and worshipping the gods can have a big impact on a late-game scenario?\nVictor Dosev: You probably already saw some of the benefits that worshipping the gods can provide you with, and what you can get from the different tiers of favour that you get from the gods. And as the game progresses the system will remain pretty much the same but you will be able to get the favour of more than just one or two gods. At the beginning of the campaign, you can try to specialise with one or two gods, where you are trying to get their favour because of the benefits you get, but as the campaign progresses you're going to be trying to get as much favour from all the gods as you can. I'm not sure how much you interacted with the system but as you can see it can be a little bit hard, but the benefits that you can get from it are really strong. Of course, the 'divine will' system itself is more a side-system to the resource system where you don't really need to be favouring the gods in order to win the game because you can still manage to defeat your opponents even without using all the benefits of the gods, even if you are getting incidents from the gods being neglected sometimes, Zeus destroying your structures and so on, but it's going to be harder for you and so it's in your best interests to try and keep interacting with it to an extent that you feel comfortable with.\nMilcho Vasilev: I just want to add that maintaining many gods at once is really, really costly so it's not really suitable most of the time. The gods have been designed to provide strong but situational bonuses, so throughout your campaign, you'd rather switch the gods you favour; it has not been designed to get Zeus to a high level and then keep Zeus all the way through the campaign, it's rather more like you start neglecting one god to starting favouring another more because you have limited resources and you probably won't be able to get all the gods to like you all the time. So it's more like you try to figure out in what part of the campaign you need which god, for example, if you plan to have a lot of sea movement, if you plan to cross the sea to get to the other lands to start or join the war if it's already ongoing between the alliances, between the two great forces, you might want the favour of Poseiden to get that extra boost on the sea and get those bonuses."}

However, we have now discovered that testosterone is responsible for far more than a man’s libido.\nDiabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, and high blood pressure have all been linked to testosterone deficiency. Low testosterone isn’t known to cause these health problems, and replacing testosterone isn’t the cure. Still, the associations between low testosterone and other medical conditions are interesting and worth a look.\nDoes Low Testosterone Indicate Poor Health?\nIn recent years, researchers have noticed general links between low testosterone and other medical conditions including obesity, diabetes, and hypertension.\nDiabetes and Low Testosterone\nA link between diabetes and low testosterone is well established. Men with diabetes are more likely to have low testosterone. And men with low testosterone are more likely to later develop diabetes. Short-term studies show testosterone replacement may improve blood sugar levels and obesity in men with low testosterone.\nObesity and Low Testosterone\nObesity and low testosterone are tightly linked. Obese men are more likely to have low testosterone. Men with very low testosterone are also more likely to become obese.\nLosing weight through exercise can increase testosterone levels. Testosterone supplements in men with low testosterone can also reduce obesity slightly.\nTestosterone and Heart Disease\nTestosterone has mixed effects on the arteries. Many experts believe testosterone contributes to the higher rates of heart disease and high blood pressure that tend to affect men at younger ages. Testosterone deficiency is connected to insulin resistance, obesity, and diabetes. Each of these problems increases cardiovascular risk. Men with diabetes and low testosterone also have higher rates of atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries.\nTestosterone and Other Conditions\nLow testosterone often exists with other medical conditions including depression and erectile dysfunction.\nFor men with low testosterone levels as measured by a blood test who also have symptoms of low testosterone, such as decreased libido, loss of muscle mass, lethargy, and falling asleep after meals, the decision to take testosterone replacement is one to make with your doctor.\nBottom Line: Testosterone is the male hormone produced in the testicles and is responsible for a man’s overall health. Deficiency can lead to many life threatening disorders that can be treated with hormone replacement therapy."}

{"text": "A Yorkshire police force has seen a fall in satisfaction rates among victims of vehicle crime since the launch of a new system where officers are not automatically sent out to all reports from the public.\nUnder North Yorkshire Police’s new ‘THRIVE’ approach for responding to reports of a crime, launched last April, the county force is no longer sending officers to virtually every incident as it did previously.\nMike Stubbs of North Yorkshire's Police Federation\nInstead, call-handlers assess incidents based on the criteria of ‘threat, harm, risk, investigative opportunity’ before deciding on the most appropriate approach. It means in many cases officers will not be sent to reports of low-level crime if bosses do not believe this will serve a purpose.\nBut according to a recent report issued by the force, the fall in the number of officers sent out to reports of crime has led to a drop in the number of victims satisfied with North Yorkshire Police’s performance.\nOverall satisfaction rates have fallen by 4.7 per cent this year, to 82.4 per cent, while the rate among victims of vehicle crime has dropped by six per cent to 78 per cent.\nThe force says satisfaction rates remain high and the fall is due to a failure to “manage the expectations” of crime victims by telling them from the outset whether an officer will be sent out to them.\n“If sending an officer will not serve any useful purpose, then we don’t do it, because we can use that officer’s time more productively to support other victims. “Chief Superintendent Amanda Oliver, North Yorkshire Police\nNorth Yorkshire Police says it no longer has the “luxury” of sending an officer to nearly every incident as part of a “triple gold-plated service” because of dramatic cuts to its budget. It says more than 2,000 officer hours have been saved due to the changes since April 2014.\nBut the county’s Police Federation, representing rank and file officers, said the satisfaction rates showed “that North Yorkshire Police still has a long way to go in explaining to the public the reality of what policing in austerity really means”.\nOn Friday, it emerged that police officers in neighbouring West Yorkshire could be sent to just one in three incidents in future in a bid to cope with huge budget cuts.\nPlans being considered by the force would see two thirds of reports dealt with remotely or by appointment at police stations.\nTemporary Chief Constable Dee Collins said the force was having to distinguish between what “we could do and what we must do” in the face of drastic funding reductions.\nNorth Yorkshire Police’s Chief Superintendent Amanda Oliver said the overall picture for victim satisfaction at her force was “very positive”, adding: “The issue that is being highlighted in the performance report is really one of expectation”.\nShe said: “In the past, the police could afford to give a triple gold-plated service, and send an officer to virtually every incident – even if there was not a good policing reason for doing so. In the current financial climate we do not have that luxury.\n“We have to think a lot harder about where and how we deploy our resources, and how we can focus our officers’ time where it is most needed – that is where the THRIVE model comes in.\n“Under THRIVE, we assess the threat, harm, risk, investigative opportunity, vulnerability of the victim and level of engagement required for every single incident – then we tailor the policing approach according to that assessment.\n“If we need to send an officer, then we do. But if sending an officer will not serve any useful purpose, then we don’t do it, because we can use that officer’s time more productively to support other victims.\n“As a result of adopting this approach, we’ve been able to reduce the time it takes us to get an officer to incidents that really require our attendance by about 20 per cent, so we can give a better service to those who are most vulnerable and at risk.”\nThough North Yorkshire Police has not been hit as badly as other neighbouring forces by Government cuts, it has had to cut its spending by £16 million between 2011 and this year.\nMike Stubbs, of North Yorkshire’s Police Federation, said: “Within the organisation, we understand all too well that government cuts mean that there are some things which we can no longer do.\n“This shows that North Yorkshire Police still has a long way to go in explaining to the public the reality of what policing in austerity really means.\n“You cannot cut millions and millions of pounds and expect the same service.

{"text": "Eye Blinking Symptoms Revisited\nArticle Tags: Eye Blinking, Eyeglasses, maintain eyeglasses would blink more frequently than expected, which is worthy of your concern and timely intervention before it gets worse.\nIn order to have a full picture of eye blinking symptoms, its causes shall be identified in the first place. Increased rate of eye blinking (which is quite abnormal) might stem from eye irritation caused by bright light, dust, smoke-exposure, or a foreign body. So, let’s have a look at its symptoms. Odds are that children might suffer more from the excessive eye blinking. There are some often spotted causes, such as tics, (known as muscle), nearsightedness, blepharitis and eye strain.\nI. Causes\n1. Tics\nKnown as repeated muscle spasms, tics would more often than not subject children to excessive blinking. Facial tics mainly occur in childhood, caused by stress, side effects from certain medications or a chronic motortic disorder. In most cases, excessive blinking caused by tics would go away as one ages to adulthood without treatment.\n2. Nearsightedness\nNearsighted as your children might be, they often wind up having great trouble descrying faraway objects, thus eliciting a series of inappropriate actions, such as excessive squinting, and eyes rubbing. At times, watering eyes can occur to result in excessive blinking.\n3. Ophthalmologic causes\nThere are some inducing factors caused by some eye disorders or injuries, such as allergies, blepharitis (inflammation of the eyelid margin), conjunctivitis (inflamed eye surface), corneal abrasion or ulcer, and dry eye symptoms. Also, the exposure to some irritants in the form of smoke, smog or fine articles can lead to eye blinking symptoms.\n4. Neurological causes\nSuch neurological causes by the name of blepharospasm, dystonia, tardive dyskinesia, or Tourette’s syndrome can also bring about the symptoms of excessive eye blinking.\nII. Symptoms\n1. Ophthalmologic symptoms\nEye blinking symptom caused by ophthalmologic causes would produce the following symptoms, to name just a few, dry eyes, watery eyes, itchy eyes, and red, sore eyes. Complicating the symptoms are some blurred vision, drooping eyelids, painful feeling in the eye, squinting and increased sensitivity to light.\n2. Neurological symptoms\nThe symptoms caused by neurological symptoms take on a more serious look. Facial paralysis, facial tics, lack of facial expression, seizures and slowed muscle movements are all going to happen if it is getting worse.\nIII. Treatment\nHerein offers a series of steps you might want to take to countermeasure the eye blinking symptoms. First of all, you need to consult with an ophthalmologist to have him determine what causes your excessive blinking. After the exact cause being determined, you can ask your eye doctor to give a specific treatment to your blinking problem. If your eye blinking symptom is caused by emotional stress, you need to try to ventilate your stress and manage your emotion. If your myopia causes it, you might want a pair of prescription eyeglasses. Other concrete treatment should be left to doctor’s specification.\nRalated Q&A\n- Why do my new glasses hurt my nose?\n- Why does one of my eyes blink frequently when I talk to people?\n- Does anti-glare coatings on glasses collect dust?\n- Welcome to a staring contest.

{"text": "TOUGH WITHOUT A GUN: The Life and Extraordinary Afterlife of Humphrey Bogart, by Stefan Kanfer. Knopf, 288 pp., $26.95\nHumphrey Bogart's career was, as his screen alter ego Sam Spade would say of a certain black bird, the stuff that dreams are made of.\nMost popular\nSeven decades after carving out his image as the definitive movie tough guy in \"High Sierra\" and \"The Maltese Falcon\" and unlikely romantic hero in \"Casablanca,\" the Bogart mystique lives on. Offering an analysis of Bogart's enduring appeal is Stefan Kanfer in his colorful new bio, \"Tough Without a Gun: The Life and Extraordinary Afterlife of Humphrey Bogart.\"\n\"His outstanding characteristics - integrity, stoicism, a sexual charisma accompanied by a cool indifference to women - are never out of style when he's on-screen, and he is still on-screen all the time,\" Kanfer writes.\nNever out of style, either, is the rebel spirit that can be traced back to Bogart's youth, when he locked horns with his father, a prominent Manhattan surgeon, and was treated with indifference by his artist mother. Flunking out of prep school and enlisting in the Navy didn't bring them any closer, nor did opting for an acting career over medicine. Bogart's fighting spirit would come in handy at Warner Bros., which signed him in 1936 to repeat his stage role as gangster Duke Mantee in the film version of \"The Petrified Forest.\" Despite the movie's success, Bogart toiled in second-rate flicks (usually rubbed out by James Cagney or Edward G. Robinson) until his breakout role as aging gangster \"Mad Dog\" Roy Earle in \"High Sierra\" (1941).\nKanfer, who has written bios of Marlon Brando and Groucho Marx, does a thorough job of taking us on a journey through the making of Bogart's other films, from \"Casablanca\" to \"Key Largo,\" aboard the African Queen and the Caine.\nThe troubled waters those cinematic vessels encountered weren't half as tempestuous as some of Bogart's marriages, especially to third wife Mayo Methot, whose jealous nature turned volatile when mixed with alcohol (she once stabbed Bogie in the back). Even after finding domesticity with Lauren Bacall (wife No. 4), Bogie continued to drink heavily, smoke continually and dally with former starlet Verita Thompson.\nWhile all of this is exciting and well detailed, Kanfer doesn't dish out anything truly revelatory. That's probably because he mainly relies on previously published works for his material. Kanfer is at his best when framing Bogie's career against the social and cultural mood of each era, and exploring Bogie's flourishing cult status since his death in 1957.\nSam Spade, however, would probably give Kanfer a good sock in the kisser for the many criminal errors throughout the book. There are botched movie titles (he calls the Bette Davis weeper \"The Big Lie\" instead of \"The Great Lie\"), incorrect release dates (\"Double Indemnity\" came out in 1944, not 1949), studio mix-ups (\"Scarface\" was released by United Artists, not Warner Bros.) and Oscar gaffes (good as she was in 1940's \"They Drive by Night,\" Ida Lupino did not get an Oscar nomination).\nPerhaps the saddest point Kanfer makes in \"Tough Without a Gun\" is that there aren't any actors at present or on the horizon who have the same blend of masculinity and integrity that defined this movie tough guy.\nHere's looking at you, Bogie.\nNewsday.com now uses Facebook for our comment boards.

{"text": "'Save the Old' aims to bring awareness and appreciation to Lodi's historic vineyards\nLODI – The saying “out with the old and in with the new” has its place when cleaning out a closet.\nBut in Lodi, the old are worth keeping.\nLodi boasts California’s highest concentration of own-rooted, old-vine vineyards – an undisputed source of pride in the region’s wine community. (Note: Vines 50 years and older generally are considered “old,” though there is no legal definition for the term).\nEasy to spot with their bushy, gnarly appearance, old vines make delicious wines but are low-yielding, expensive to grow and fetch scant returns per ton, especially zinfandel, the primary old-vine variety planted in Lodi. That rough reality helps explain why some growers have replaced their old vines with other wine grape varieties or crops that are less costly and generate higher revenue. Lodi’s urban development also has taken a toll.\nThe amount of old-vine acreage pulled recently is difficult to quantify, but enough to draw some concern. Thus a campaign is afoot to raise awareness about Lodi’s prized senior citizens in the hope they don’t disappear. The Lodi Winegrape Commission has launched “Save the Old,” an effort to preserve Lodi’s historical vineyards for generations to come.\nAt, folks can discover what makes Lodi’s old vines special, why Lodi’s soils and climate promote vine longevity and links to a variety of Lodi old-vine wines, including a specially curated six-pack available for purchase in limited quantity. On Nov. 10, the Lodi Wines Facebook Live Virtual Tasting & Discussion will feature a panel of old-vine proponents: Kevin Phillips of Phillips Farms and Michael David Winery, Tegan Passalacqua of Turley Wine Cellars and Sandlands Wines, and Jeff Perlegos, Lodi grower and co-owner of the Stampede Vineyard, an Historic Vineyard Society site in Clements. For more information, visit.\nMore:Stampede Vineyard is a gem in the Lodi American Viticultural Area\nPreserving Lodi’s heritage plantings has been an issue for some time.\n“We’ve been discussing this internally for quite some time and the challenges these older vineyards face in light of decreasing yields and increasing farming costs. We feel they are symbolic and truly unique to Lodi,” said Stuart Spencer, executive director of the Lodi Winegrape Commission. “They are worth trying to preserve.”\nSpencer said connecting these treasured vines with vintners who appreciate their value is important. Passalacqua is one of many such vintners. The winemaker for Turley Wine Cellars, which sources from some 50 vineyards in the state, including many old vineyard sites, and owner and winemaker of Sandlands Wines based in Acampo, admires the history, quality and potential of Lodi’s venerable vines so much, he sources from five different old growths in Lodi and owns and farms the Kirschenmann Vineyard planted in 1915 in the silica-rich sandy soils on the east side of the Mokelumne River micro-AVA. Kirschenmann and several more prime old-vine vineyard sites are in an area dubbed the “Victor Triangle,” where the river’s cool waters and San Joaquin Delta breezes protect the head-trained, dry-farmed vines from the heat.\nThis year, From the Vine has followed the growing season in the Lizzy James Vineyard, planted in 1904 on the east side of Lodi and farmed by Kyle Lerner of Mettler & Son for his family’s winery, Harney Lane. Lerner and his late father-in-law George Mettler rescued the vineyard in the early 2000s and built Harney Lane Winery because of the remarkable Lizzy James Old Vine Zinfandel produced from the unique and truly irreplaceable vines. Lizzy James is registered by the Historic Vineyard Society, as is the Rous Vineyard, also in the \"Victor Triangle.\"\nMore:Lizzy James Vineyard Series Part IV: harvest time brings reflection to a strange year\nMore:From The Vine: Craig Rous’ historic Zinfandel vineyards have stood the test of time\nIn 1990, Craig Rous restored and has continued farming the vineyard that bears his last name, planted to zinfandel in 1909 on St. George rootstock in fine, powdery, sandy soil. Zinfandel from Rous Vineyard has a floral, crushed violet character, approachable structure and elegance. The fruit goes to Ironstone Vineyards, Milliaire Winery, Macchia Wines and McCay Cellars.\nLodi is home to what is believed the world’s oldest planting of the red variety cinsault, the organically grown Bechthold Vineyard, a 25-acre parcel on Lodi’s west side planted in 1886 by Joseph Spenker and farmed by Phillips Farms. Jessie’s Grove Winery, led by winemaker Greg Burns, a fifth-generation Spenker descendent; as well as Turley Wine Cellars; Michael David Winery; McCay Cellars; Fields Family Wines; Estate Crush; Onesta Wines and the Scholium Project source from Bechthold and create red, blush and even white wines with qualities ranging from generous and rich to lovely and floral. Nearby, the five-acre Royal Tee Vineyard, the fifth-oldest in California, planted by Spenker in 1889, goes into Jessie’s Grove’s Ancient Vine Lodi Carignane and Royal Tee Zinfandel, and not far on Turner Road stands the Bishofberger Vineyard planted in 1936 to carignane (also spelled carignan). Bechthold and Royal Tee are registered by the Historic Vineyard Society.\nThere are many more old-vine vineyards among Lodi’s 100,000 acres of wine grapes. They are a living piece of Lodi’s history that generations of farming families have kept going. There is an obligation that some feel towards telling the stories of the old vineyards, so they don’t go away.\n“They have the potential to make incredibly delicious wines,” Spencer said. “It’s often a matter of connecting the grower with the winemaker that is willing to work in partnership to bring that to life.”\nMany Lodi wineries offer old-vine zinfandel and more varieties from old plantings. To find them, visit your favorite winery's web site or browse the selection of wines from throughout the Lodi appellation at the Lodi Wine & Visitor Center at 2545 W. Turner Rd.

Congrats on the Firelands win too!\nNot so much close to it as on it. The “Taupo” volcano is effectively an active rift in the crust extending from south of the current lake well out into the ocean to the northeast, encompassing one of the world’s largest and most dangerous volcanoes (uh…yay?…) The quakes Wellington’s had of late are symptomatic of the same thing – it depends where you are along the fracture lines as to whether you get lava poured over you or are merely shaken to pieces.. 🙂\nHi MJ. Thank you for the insight. I knew that NZ was volcanic but I had no idea of the scale and magnitude of the activity.\nIt’s colossal. Similar scale to Yellowstone but more active. Auckland is built right on top of a huge volcanic lava bubble, quite apart from the line of active vents running from Ruapehu through Taupo to White Island. Tarawera exploded in 1886, with loss of life and huge devastation. White Island’s pretty much constantly erupting. And there are extinct volcanoes like Akaroa which make clear it’s been a moving and rather persistent issue here.\nIncredibly fascinating!!\nHi – many thanks for the shout-out…I hope I don’t seem TOO self-serving by clicking Like… 🙂\nWow, this is actually very scary!

At this stage families will not be able to access childcare subsidy (CCS) for the CHILDCARE@HOME service and must pay the educator an agreed rate directly.\nIn terms of how the CHILDCARE@HOME service may support Approved Providers, Ms Fewster explained that ECEC services have the opportunity to connect their families with casual educators who may already be known to the children from their time in the service, providing continuity of care, familiarity and comfort at this challenging time.\n\"The business model adopted by organisations may vary according to their need, however MiStaffng provides the capability and support required to ensure the best outcome for the educators, families and organisation,\" Ms Fewster said.\n\"We have a large database of early childhood professionals currently looking to be employed and see CHILDCARE@HOME as a solution to a range of potential issues soon to impact,\" she explained.\nFamilies are able to register for free and connect with professionals to meet their childcare needs.\n\"We have watched some of our friends and families worry about the impact of school and early learning services closures on their vital work as doctors, nurses and paramedics and we want them to know that we have their backs,\" Ms Fewster said in closing.\nTo learn more about how the CHILDCARE@HOME model works, or to pre- register please visit\nPhoto by Charlein Gracia on Unsplash"}

{"text": "Ground Flaxseed\nGround flaxseed is also referred to as ‘flaxseed meal’ or ‘milled flaxseed’. Don’t be confused by the different terminology as there is no difference between the phrases. They are products resulting from flaxseed being ground-down or milled, to produce a fine powder.\nWhy Do We Have Ground Flaxseed?\nIf flaxseed is consumed as ‘whole seeds’ i.e. pre-milled. The seeds will generally pass straight through the intestinal tract and out of the body without any of the healthy compounds being absorbed.\nThis is because the hard outer shell that protects the delicate seed and its valuable nutrients are very hard to break.\nThe shell needs to be split for the body to benefit from these nutrients and oils. The easiest way to do this is through grinding or milling.\nThe Growing Popularity of Ground Flaxseed\nWith the increased interest and demand for natural health products, flaxseed is becoming more and more popular, with all kinds of foods now containing ground flaxseed.\nHow Much Ground Flaxseed Should I Eat?\nThere is no recommended daily allowance for consuming flaxseed. An original pioneer in the study of flaxseed and its health benefits.\nStates that “One tablespoon of ground flaxseed a day may provide some health benefits in some cases and is most likely safe”.\nFor the average adult consuming 1 to 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed a day will not incur any ill effects and yet could potentially have a very significant impact, including many health benefits such as:\n“Preventing and treating cancerous tumor growth including colon, prostate, and breast cancer.”\nImproved intestinal health. Flaxseed has shown to prevent constipation and better regulate bowel functions.\n- It helps to lower total and LDL cholesterol levels.\n- Anti-inflammatory properties can help prevent and treat joint problems such as rheumatoid arthritis.\n- Cardiovascular benefits. Flaxseed can help prevent heart disease including strokes and blood clots.\n- Omega-3 fatty acids found in flaxseed is good for bone health.\n- May help lower high blood pressure.\nAnd that’s just what we do know of. More research is uncovering further health advantages, and make this little seed an incredibly important food source we should all be eating more of.\nFor centuries flaxseed has been used as a health food. It is only now, through scientific tests we can prove its worth.\nIf you have a specific condition such as high cholesterol then you might want to increase this amount to 2 or 3 tablespoons a day. Bear in mind this is a lot of ground flaxseed to consume, but it is a natural food source and certainly beats taking potentially dangerous statin drugs with their horrendous side effects!\n“Studies have shown that a diet containing flaxseed had the same cholesterol lowering effect on patients as did taking statin drugs.”\nTo Grind or Not to Grind\nSo flaxseed can be purchased as ground flaxseed (flaxseed meal) or as whole flaxseed. Ground flaxseed gives you the convenience of simply spooning. It straight from the bag onto your food.\nThe only draw-back with ground flaxseed is its shelf life and the cost. Once the flaxseed is exposed to air it will turn rancid unless stored in a dark, airtight container. Preferably in the refrigerator or the freezer. Doing so will keep it fresh for around 3 months. So still quite a long shelf life if you use it daily.\nGround flaxseed is also more expensive than whole flaxseed due to the cold milled processing and storing.\nI prefer to buy my flaxseed whole and grind it up myself. Whole flaxseed is very cheap, can be stored easily and will last around 12 months or more.\nBuy a good quality coffee/spice grinder and you’ll have fresh, ground flaxseed within seconds!\nI bought a great coffee/spice grinder from Amazon for less than $25 and it has been used every day for well over a year now. Here’s the link to the grinder I use – Krups 203-42 Electric Coffee and Spice Grinder.\nAnother advantage of grinding flaxseed yourself is that you can decide how crunchy or fine you want it. Some people prefer a more crunchy taste, whereas others like a finely ground powder.\nWhere Can I Buy Ground Flaxseed?\nIf you still prefer to buy the convenience of flaxseed already ground for you, then I recommend Bob’s Red Mill Organic Flaxseed Meal – also available from Amazon.com\nHow to Use Ground Flaxseed\nSo much more appealing than tasteless and gritty fiber supplements, ground flaxseed needs no special preparation – just sprinkle on your favorite foods or stir into juice or another beverage.\nThe taste is subtle and the crunchy nutty flavor can be added to baked goods, cereals, yogurt, smoothies, soups, salads, and banana slices to boost their nutritive value.\nYou could even coat fish or homemade chicken nuggets in ground flaxseed and oven-bake for a delicious family treat."}
{"text": "European Union endorses New Zealand Privacy Act\nMedia release\n20 December 2012\nPrivacy Commissioner Marie Shroff today welcomed the announcement that the European Commission had formally decided that New Zealand’s Privacy Act offers an adequate standard of data protection for the purposes of European law.\n“The\nEuropean decision is a vote of confidence in our privacy law\nand regulatory arrangements. This decision establishes New\nZealand, in the eyes of our trading partners, as a safe\nplace to process personal data.”\nThe Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) has been working for a number of years towards this outcome. It has assisted successive governments in amending the Privacy Act to meet EU requirements and has worked with European institutions to gather the information they need to make an assessment.\nAssistant Commissioner Blair Stewart, who has led more than 10 years of OPC work on EU adequacy said, “Europe and New Zealand share a common commitment to upholding human rights. As part of this, all European countries have data protection laws much like New Zealand’s Privacy Act 1993. However, since 1995 European businesses have been prohibited by law from transferring personal data to countries outside Europe for processing unless special safeguards prescribed in law are in place.\n“Providing the special safeguards in the manner required by EU law can be expensive and difficult even where companies are already operating with comprehensive privacy laws like New Zealand’s. This is why it has been so important for New Zealand to obtain an official decision that our law is adequate to meet EU standards. The European Commission decision establishes that all New Zealand companies in all circumstances can meet those European requirements. Few countries outside Europe have achieved this status.\n“The decision should be helpful to New Zealand businesses that trade with Europe or hope to do so as it substantially simplifies compliance with data protection requirements.\n“The decision to\nrecognise New Zealand law for the purposes of EU data\nprotection requirements is a small step in making privacy\nlaws around the world work together to protect people\nbetter. Substantial variations in legal standards and\nincompatible regulation are also a problem for businesses\nthat operate across national borders. Global\ninteroperability of privacy regulation has the twin\nunderlying goals of creating a trustworthy environment and\navoiding unnecessary barriers to cross-border information\nflows.”\nNotes\nThe Office of the Privacy Commissioner has released a ‘Backgrounder and Questions & Answers’ which provides more information about the European Commission decision and aspects of EU law and process.\nThe EU media release is at\nJustice and Trade Ministers’ media release:\nENDS"}

{"text": "Buying a home is always a major undertaking, but many believe that the process could be simplified in significant, important ways. In particular, quite a few home buyers find that arranging for financing turns out to be more complex and difficult than might be strictly necessary.\nAs those who learn more about Dustin Dimisa here will see, there is some real progress being made, however. While it can still seem as if acquiring a residential loan were more challenging than it needs to be, things are starting to improve.\nA Career in the Residential Lending Industry Produces Insights and Inspiration\nDimisa got his start as a professional with CountryWide, a company that became a titan of the residential lending industry beginning around the year 2000. Tasked with leading one of the lender’s fastest growing divisions, he began looking for ways to improve the experience for borrowers.\nBy the time Dimisa left CountryWide to co-found his own firm with a partner, he had become convinced that borrowing could be much easier. With his InterContinental Capital Group now having more than ten years of its own successes behind it, it has recently launched an important new initiative.\nSimpler, Easier Loan Applications Online\nOne commonly noted pain point among borrowers has been the need to work with outdated tools and processes. Even while other companies in the broader financial industry have long since moved on, many residential lenders have remain wedded to an overly labor-intensive application flow.\nWith its “Lending Made Easy” system, InterContinental aims to shake things up. Instead of being forced to fill out applications in painstaking fashion by hand or with the help of a professional, borrowers can do so from the comfort of their own homes.\nThat helps to cut down on mistakes and the time it takes to complete and support even the most complex of applications. As a result, borrowers are more likely to move forward with the process, instead of getting hung up on the various hurdles that otherwise so often crop up in the way. With InterContinental enjoying significantly improved levels of business as a result, it has become clear that plenty of rewards await those who find out how to serve applicants and borrowers better."}

{"text": "drawing by Akil Jahi, reproduced here with his permission\nTwo days ago I had the honor of spending time with two men who have spent many many years in Unit Two, known in the parlance of the outside as Death Row, of Riverbend Maximum Security Institution in Nashville, Tennessee. I knew not to fear them by what I had been told by my daughter, who visits Akil Jahi regularly and enjoys his dear friend Abu's company whenever Abu has a visitor at the same time. But I was not prepared for what I felt when I was with them: elevated, open, honest and joyful.\nWe began our gathering as Akil and Abu always begin gatherings, with a poem about forgiveness, a moment of reflection, and Abu's beautiful voice singing Amazing Grace. What then followed was a remarkable conversation that I hoped to share with all of you here on Steem, so I asked their permission to write about them. They both readily agreed. What man who knows he has a valuable message would say no? And what Steemian would not give writing a blog post about them a shot?\nBut I found I was unable to write a thing that did justice to these fine men. No words of mine could capture the joy and love I felt in that cement block room, sharing a meal of vending machine selections on a makeshift table, six of us (two from the inside and four from the outside) discussing poetry, art, music, cooking, trauma, choices, family, justice, truth and love.\nAkil Jahi and Abu-Ali Abdur'Rahman are leaders among both prisoners and guards in Unit Two. I could see the respect and love in the smiles of all who exchanged a word or even a glance with them. But more than that, I could see the same in the other prisoners from the unit and their visitors, whether they were in shackles or handcuffs and meeting behind glass, or allowed the freedom of movement that Akil and Abu have earned in their decades at the prison. This surprised me at first, all the joy evident in the visiting room for the inmates on death row, which was very different from what I saw as we passed through the visiting room for the general population. But after three hours with Akil and Abu holding forth on finding strength, goodness, and joy in what could be one of the bleakest of places, I understood. This is a special place in large part because of the two of them, a place of honor, opportunity, worship and freedom.\nI have decided to let Akil tell you himself of the rewards of his incarceration. Here are four of his many poems. The images are my photos of poems he has sent to my daughter.\nThere is some bittersweet news to tell of Abu, news that is cause for both celebration and sorrow. His death sentence was vacated a few days ago after many years of fighting the injustice of this sentence, and he will be leaving Unit Two, thankfully not to be executed, but to take up residence in Unit Six for the rest of his life.\nI have no doubt Abu will be a force for positive change among the prisoners and guards of the general population as well, and that is truly wonderful for many many people. Akil will likewise continue the good work in Unit Two. But Akil and Abu, friends of a very special sort, may never see each other again. They will be able to send verbal messages through their visitors, they will be able to send each other letters, but they may not ever again be in each others presence. Akil too is trying to vacate his death sentence which would result in their being again housed in the same unit.\nI leave you with a few powerful words of Abu's, and he too has many more of these:\nShed the past of unwanted suffering and become the healer, others await you.\n🎁 Hi @owasco! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!\n@dswigle wrote lately about: Sunday, Sunday... Feels Good To Be You Feel free to follow @dswigle if you like it :)\nSending tips with @tipU - how to guide :)\nOh this is so heartbreaking and beautiful. The poetry is lovely - simple, heartfelt, morsels of divine truth. I have been talking to my students about compassion and forgiveness this week, and how it is the anecdote to holding onto the hurts and pains of the past. Thanks for sharing this with us! @artemislives, one for the Freedom Tribe? xx\nThat seems to be the key for them, to move past the prior pains. They are both very wonderful men. I watched the report on Abu's death sentence being vacated, and there was no mention of how kind he is now, none. It was a terrible omission.\nOh for goodness sake I forgot to tag @freedomtribe. I thought I did though! erg. That's the kind of thing I have no head for.\nI am so glad you called me over her @owasco. A very moving post and which again confirms my instinctive rejection of the death penalty. And humanity.\nAnd I am glad you came to my call. These guys deserve the love! Love, not war. Peace!\nWhat a really, truly, fascinating read. One generally visualises the inner workings of any prison system as a 24x7 rough and tumble affair. Without knowing anything about their crimes it's nice to know that they've been able to achieve a bit of inner peace. I would like to think that the victims have as well, because living with negativity just breeds further contempt and negativity.\nThe prison system is designed to be 'rehabilitation'. Very often that isn't the case, but it's nice when we can get at least part of the way there.\nThank you for your comment. I know that in Abu's case, the surviving victim has forgiven him and did so in court last week.\nThese two men have been more than rehabilitated, they have gained what many of us dream of, a freedom of their souls and unending love and compassion for their fellow men. Happiness. Remarkable.\nthere's no doubt that the poem is meaningful. It stated that how life might be cruel there are still goodness of it. It's up to you to have patience and just don't focus on bad thing in life.\nNice content, as if I'm reading a fiction story even though it's true to life story.\nPosted using Partiko Android\nI am staying as true to this story as I can, I'm just recounting what they tell me, what I know from the Tennessee news, and my feelings about it all.\nyeah that's what I meant, when I said it's like a fiction but actually a true story. Sorry if I didn't state it well, I wasn't criticising but complementing. I just didn't say it understandable, sorry\nPosted using Partiko Android\nno no I understood, you said it beautifully! I was just agreeing. Thanks so much for you comments.\nman, what a story! thanks for sharing; it breaks my heart knowing that people are locked up in such places... and then of course there are their brutal (but sometimes even innocent) crimes.. is this form of punishment the best way to deal with this problem? I have to think of the open prison in Norway on an island. Although I think they are kept there only if they haven't done major crimes\nI think I have read about that prison. Sounds very rehabilitative. I have no doubt these two men, and several of the others I saw in that visiting room, would be excellent neighbors and friends. I oppose the death penalty in all cases now. Before this visit, I was not so certain, but men like these must be allowed to live and love. And yes, there are many in prison and even on death row who are innocent! If you are interested I just read a good book \"The Sun Does Shine\" by Anthony Ray Hinton who was an innocent man on death row for more than 20 years. He, like these two, had horrible representation, criminal representation if you ask me. Thanks for you comment.\nWhat a profound, beautiful and glorious post, @owasco They are separated so that each of them can spread that light further, because there are so many who need. Thank you for sharing their poems, and for bring such humanity and joy for what others would imagine is a dark place.\nLeading the curation trail for both @ecotrain & @eco-alex.\nTogether We’re Making This World A Better Place.\nClick Here To Join the manually curated trail \"@artemislives\" to support quality eco-green content.\n@ecoTrain\nI thought of you as I wrote it. Thank you so much for your comment.\nYes, I agree. In some ways their wrongful sentences have done a tremendous amount of good both for them and those who come into contact with them. Akil proudly told me that when a female guard becomes pregnant, she is sent to their unit to work, because it is the safest and most loving unit in that prison. It's no longer hard for me to imagine that, I have seen it. Redemption in unlikely places. Or maybe it's the most likely place. xo\nWow. I stopped by to deliver your reward for the recommend your favorite Freewrite and I am so glad that I got to read your post.\nThanks for the reward and for reading!\nHowdy owasco! Great post, you did a wonderful job of sharing your experience with these men, very powerful!\nThank you. They are worthy of so much more than I can give.\nWell I understand what you mean but you did a great job with that post! And perhaps you can write more about them sometime. Like about their story because you said the one man especially was wrongfully convicted.\nThey were both wrongfully sentenced. Neither should have received the death penalty, both were black and poor and got terrible representation. I do hope to write more about them. I hope to visit them again too. I'll never have the pleasure of being with both of them at the same time again, a very special something. Thanks so much for your appreciation!\nHowdy today owasco! Yes, the court appointed attorneys generall don't do a thing for people except fill out paperwork, very tragic indeed that they couldn't get a fair trial.\nLooking forward to the next posting about their story though.\nWhat a powerful post! Thank you for this!\nPowerful people these two. I can't say it was easy to write about them though. It took my many hours to leave my own ego far enough behind to write about them. Thank you for reading!\nOh thank you for sharing so I could come absorb this post! I trained a fantastic lady for quite a number of years who visited death row in the jail here regularly. I was always fascinated, and often heartbroken, by her stories and those she shared from the men she visited. It wasn't all positive, as there were many very bad men she came across, along with her \"buddies\" as she called them. She and her husband helped get an innocent man released after way too many years in prison. Our prison system here is quite broken, but this is a true breath of fresh air to read about these men and the positive energy they continue to share.\nOh thank you for your comment! There are days I think they deserve so much better, and then I realize they DO have it better than I do in one critical way. I get annoyed by my smoke alarm going off, my landscapers making a racket, my chickens needing clean water everyday, finding a tick on my dog, my vacuum cleaner acting up, my gutters needing cleaning, my money not quite lasting the month. I am imprisoned by my things. They cherish and find freedom in what little they have, and they are far more wealthy than I am in love and spirit.\nReally a touching reading for its content. Without having any idea of the lives of the characters in his writing, the value they have in achieving inner peace, despite finding themselves in a place that they might not be able to imagine, that I perceive to be impassable.\nThank you for your comment. They have altered my perception of right and wrong, freedom and imprisonment. It's amazing. You might be interested to know they are both guilty, but not guilty as charged, which means the difference between life and death in prison.\nEvery day, in our minds, there is an internal confrontation in everything that surrounds us and the implementation in our senses, we are constantly involved in a duality towards the truth of the world, Good and Evil, We close our eyes, and we look inside where everything lies, since it is only the way we perceive this duality, in some way, or for some reason.\nPerhaps this helps to explain how men who stand to be executed in the name of justice, who have so little to look at outside of themselves, can see so clearly what lies within.\nSurely you pay a high price to realize.\n🔥🔥🔥💖🙏💖🔥🔥🔥\nPosted using Partiko Android\nI am speechless. It make me feel sad in a way and yet inspiring. Thanks for sharing.\nYes, it's oddly bittersweet for me to have met them both. I will visit Akil again soon I hope. By then Abu will be living in another unit, and the visiting rules are so strict I doubt I will be able to see Abu too. Thank you so much for your comment.\nHello!\nThis post has been manually curated, resteemed\nand gifted with some virtually delicious cake\nfrom the @helpiecake curation team!\nMuch love to you from all of us at @helpie!\nKeep up the great work!\nManually curated by @free-reign.\n@helpie is a Community Witness.\nFor more information about our project,\nplease visit this month’s UPDATE post.\nThis is really beautiful to read. It's really good that these men are at peace with their situations, especially Abu, now getting off death row. It must be pretty tough to take losing a friend forever though, in a place where a true friend would be the best thing a person could hope to have.\nThank you so much for the comment and the cake. I wish I could take a slice of cake to the two of them, but the best I can bring is the stuff from the vending machines at the prison. When I think of Abu's leaving, I cry. Every single time. Such a mixed blessing! But he would have been leaving anyway, at least this way he will leave and still be alive. I'm sure Akil has many friends there, it's just that the two of them together....\nThank you for this wonderful article.\nI've also shared your post in the Steem Malaysia Community Page on Facebook, hoping to give you the extra exposure because of its good content. Feel free to join this community page is you wish!\nI hope by doing this, more content creators/bloggers/vloggers will get to know this wonderful platform we both thrive in. :)\nKeep creating awesome content!\nThank you kind sir! There is so much good in the world, I am happy to be a part of spreading it.\nThis is so moving and powerful, thank you for sharing this with us all, the poetry is amazing and their strength is so inspiring xx\nYou can find the community announcement on Discord :) and it has also been shared on our FB Page and Twitter feed.\nOh thank you! I am so grateful. Thanks from Akil and Abu too, who can't see this, but my daughter has printed out what she can and sent it to them. They are not allowed to receive images, so she had to just list which of Akil's poems I chose from the great many he had sent to her.\nI don't know why but reading their letters make me tear, they are touching, every single line. I could feel the love and the presence of God in their letters. My prayers for them are that they continue to radiate that kind of freedom and love to people around them, as always and more and more people will experience God's unconditional love.\nYour prayer for them is their prayer for others I am sure. We spoke very little about god though, but I do I remember that Abu referred to both Gods and Goddesses before he sang. They have so much beauty in their lives I was astounded, surrounded by cement and barbed wire and their shoes never ever touching grass. Far more beauty than I do in my \"freedom\". Thank you for your comment, and for allowing my words and theirs to move you.\nShed the past of unwanted suffering and become the healer, others await you.\nWow that’s a heavy line but i love it\nI chose that line from a book Abu had a part in publishing, a book about indigenous cultures in Guatemala (I think). My daughter does not know Abu as well as Akil, so he got short shrift in this post. I was so happy to find that line to end with. Thank you for seeing its power.\nI don't know anything about those you talk to, I understand that they are being unfairly imprisoned.\nTo me this is a big mess ... can American justice be considered incompetent?\nI like your writing and style, no matter the theme.\nThank you, @owasco!\nAnd my thanks to you @bluemoon.\nYes American justice is incompetent, especially when it comes to convicting and sentencing people of color. Unfortunately, the judicial branch in our government is the branch that is still functioning in any way.\nWith pleasure! I remember a great movie about such a mistake ... \"Joe Hill\"\nThese words are genuinely from the heart. Can actually feel the emotions coming from every letter\nTrue. I shed a LOT of tears writing it. And a lot of hours! It was hard to capture their purity of heart.\nA very touching piece and I can honestly say I have no words for it. Well done, @owascco.\nI pray for continued peace in their souls.\n!tip\nThank you Denise. It means a lot to me. When I went to the prison I had no idea what I was in for. My first look at Akil, standing somberly on the far side of a white and grey cement block room before two garbage cans that had been covered with paper cloths to serve as tables for our feast. I left a new person, with more patience and gratitude.\nA powerful post, @owasco. Amazing these two men who are imprisoned have such beautiful souls. May they continue to spread their messages of light and love throughout the prison. Upped and resteemed.\nThank you for helping spread their words!\nAkil has called my daughter twice now, at great expense to him, to say how much our visiting him means to him. I hope I can get back there soon. I did not expect to feel that way, so they have touched me deeply too.\nThis is an incredible piece of writing, @owasco. I cannot imagine what such a life must be like. Compassion truly does heal the heart and mind. I believe this so fundamentally, and feel it is a key missing ingredient in the challenges our global society is experiencing today, but I never expected to hear that message from an inmate on death row.\nIt is sad that the two friends will be separated. But it’s certainly great for Abu that he is moving off of death row and has received some vindication and a lighter sentence.\nThis is one of the most moving and powerful pieces I have read on Steem for some time. Thank you for sharing it, along with the poems.\nThank you @jayna. I pimped this one, my first to pimp! I know you know what I'm about to say - when the words (finally - it took me at least ten hours of starts and stops) come out as if from above, I know I've written something good. This one still makes me cry.\nAkil was slated to lose Abu to execution this coming April. He will lose Abu instead to life in a different part of the prison. It's good, very good!\nGreat message to share to those living beyond the cell block @owasca, death is no punishment and should never be treated as such.\nAs long as a person breathes they are able to grow, change and manifest into helpful, kind and generous people, even if behind bars for life, finding strength to carry on assisting others.\nThe poetry really speaks volumes!\nAkil is an amazing man. Now we have to get his death sentence vacated. I would like to see the death penalty prohibited everywhere. Tennessee has executed five men this year.\nThank you for knowing this.\nWhile I don't know them, I think your post most certainly did justice to them. Beautiful, if bittersweet, testament to them both.\nAlso,\nThank you! I am so glad I went to meet them. It was very important to my daughter so I didn't hesitate when she suggested it, but I also did not expect the visit to be transformative.\n@owasco - you keep saying you didn't do the story justice, but I think that you did a great job. Any time you can move people to tears from writing a post, you have done a great job. It's so sad that those two great friends must now be separated.\nI have pages and pages of starts and stops in Word documents for this post. And I used NONE of those pages and pages. I felt like I had given up, had decided to write very little, put the images straight into Steempeak's publishing tool and let their words speak for them. My giving up my own ego is what it took to let them speak through me. Thank you for letting them move you.\n@owasco,\nIt's strange where one finds wisdom and insight. Seldom is it where you'd expect.\nQuill\nI expected wisdom and insight to be there, because I had been told by my daughter that it would be. I'd recently read The Sun Does Shine by Anthony Ray Hinton, an innocent man on death row, so I expected compassion and love to be there too. What I did not expect was how often those words and feelings come back to me here on the outside, usually after I've been annoyed by something smoke-alarm-ish, and I feel foolish for letting the traps of my \"freedom\" get to me.\nYou feel sad to read this kind of story, thank you for sharing this adventure!\nReminds me of the story of Papillon who was also innocently incarcerated, but he struggled for freedom. These men in your post found freedom in their own souls my friend. A remarkable transformation of forgiveness and love.\nNow they have become light sowers and we hope that many seeds will grow from their efforts.\nThis is indeed a remarkable post my friend.\nBlessings!\nI am honored to be a part of the force getting their message outside the prison. Heading over to your blog to find out more about papillon.\nThank you and you will have to search a bit to find the occasional post about our work my friend.\nI think I posted last week about one of our projects, the \"Trauma training\" for child workers one.\nWe run several projects over the past 18 years to help and empower poor communities.\nBlessings!\nThank you for that information. I did go to your blog but found nothing about papillon. will look again today.\nLook at 10 Days ago. \"A great Papillon Project\"\nThank you for your interest.\nYou can also visit us here.\nWebsite; and our names are mentioned on the website as Stephen and Marian Smith in South Africa.\nThank you for the post I'm lost for words\nI was too when I first started to write. Or rather I had many words, but they did not capture the import. Thank you for your emotion. And your comment.\nThank you for bringing their words to us @owasco. You are fortunate to meet them. 👍\nPosted using Partiko Android\nTruth! Today Akil sent me a present. I hope to write about that soon.\n🙏\nPosted using Partiko Android\nThey are free in a sense, they have the freedom they have created themselves. It is something only you can do for yourself. It sounds like the have more than made the best of the situation.\nVery powerful. I do hope they end up in the same unit again--somehow, I imagine that they will. Thanks for sharing :)\nWell. Abu is still in unit 2 because Tennessee's AG is challenging the decision! I do not understand the reason for that. What on earth would it accomplish? What kind of person takes up a cause like that? In trying to make a name for himself, he traumatizes and harms a great many people, at least one of whom is a very fine man. xo\nPeople are strange and many who have power/control issues wind up working in those kinds of positions...Not all, of course, but certain types are drawn to positions in which they have ultimate power--especially if they're coming from a place of having felt no personal power in their lives.\nThis post was curated by @theluvbug\nand has received an upvote and a delayed resteem to hopefully generate some ❤ extra love ❤ for your post!\nIn Proud Collaboration with The Power House Creatives\nand their founder @jaynie\nThank you!!!!!!!!"}
{"text": "Located in \"Poletown,\" the premises of Polonia began as a Workmen's Cooperative in 1927 to offer home cooking to Polish immigrants who had just arrived in this country. With that in mind, the tradition of familiar Polish dishes has continued as Polonia offers a wide range of Polish dishes at cheap prices.\nYou cannot eat at Polonia without trying the dill pickle soup as a first course. I hadn't tasted it before, but after getting a recommendation from a friend, I had my first experience. The soup was extremely tasty. I believe it has a chicken broth base which is thickened with either ketchup or sour cream. There are little specks of dill throughout, which adds the perfect touch. I didn't need to add anything to it, and I finished it in about a minute and a half as I voraciously ate it as if someone was chasing me.\nFor my meal, I ordered the Polish Combination plate so I could get a taste of everything. At $8.50, the combination plate is delicious and cheap. It came with stuffed cabbage and tomato sauce, sausage, two pierogies, and mashed potatoes with brown gravy and kraut. Everything was outstanding. It's hard to go wrong with mashed potatoes, but these were better than usual as they were covered with brown gravy and kraut. The stuffed cabbage was just as I would imagine it to be, stuffed with beef and covered in a perfectly concocted tomato sauce.\nIf you eat sausage, Hamtramck, and Polonia in particular, is the place to get it. In its natural casing, the sausage hit the spot. I could've eaten more of the sausage if I had chosen to go that route, but I thought better of it. I'll have to get my fill on my next visit.\nNext it was on to the pierogies. There are multiple choices available including potato, cheese, kraut, or beef. I went for the traditional potato. I'm not a pierogi expert, but if I never ate a pierogi from anywhere else, I wouldn't mind. The potato pierogies came out hot and the filling was made just right. On a future visit I will no doubt try a different variation, but the potato pierogi was more than sufficient.\nEverything on my plate was delicious. By the end of the meal I was eating everything on my plate at the same time. I was scooping up parts of pierogi with kraut and then variations of stuffed cabbage or sausage with mashed potatoes.\nI have a feeling that there is more traditional Polish fare that I have yet to try, but next time I might just get a plate of only pierogies and sausage. Both are favorites of mine and Polonia does them more than justice.\nI've heard rumors that Polonia may move locations or even be sold in opposition to a proposed Aldi which will take up much of Polonia's parking spaces. I don't know how much truth there is to this, but I wouldn't take any chances. Although Polish Village Restaurant is right down the street, Polonia is too good to miss.\nBelow are some photos from my meal at Polonia. To see the entire flickr set click here.\nWebsite: Polonia\nPolonia Restaurant\n2934 Yemans Street\nHamtramck, MI 48212\n2934 Yemans Street\nHamtramck, MI 48212\nTel: (313) 873-8432\nDetroit Army\n1 comment:\nI would venture to guess that the soup was probably not thickened with ketchup. Just a hunch."}

{"text": "Books and videos so you can easily learn Node.js programming\nBy:\n+David Herron; Date: 2018-06-14 11:19\nNode.JS Web Development - Fourth Edition\nAn excellent introduction to web application development in Node.js. It takes you from zero knowledge (assuming you have basic skills in programming, HTML and JavaScript), and takes you all the way to a pseudo-real-time chat application running between browsers, and writing unit testing. Along the way you learn about user authentication using Passport, application deployment on real servers using Docker, unit testing and a whole bunch of other stuff. The intent is to show you the full lifecycle of Node.js application development, and to give you a solid grasp of every aspect. The focus is on typical web applications, where there are web pages being displayed in a browser, and on using the Express framework.\nNOTE -- I am the author of this book.\nNode.js 8 the Right Way: Practical, Server-Side JavaScript That Scales\nThis updated book takes a different approach than building a web app with express. Instead it looks at asynchronous programming, file handling, socket programming, creating RESTful web services, messaging with ZeroMQ, using Elasticsearch and REDIS databases. By requiring Node.js 8, this book uses the latest ES6 features.\nNode.js in Action\nAn example-driven tutorial on Node.js software development. It covers not just web application development, but asynchronous programming, data storage, and output templating, and interact with the filesystem to create non-HTTP applications like TCP/IP servers and command-line tools. Some of the authors are core contributors to Node.js.\nWeb Development with Node and Express: Leveraging the JavaScript Stack\nFocusing on Express 4.0 because it \"strikes a balance between a robust framework and no framework at all,\" this book walks you through developing applications with MongoDB, Node and Express. It talks about document databases, debugging techniques, RESTful API's, authentication, authorization, HTTPS, etc.\nUDEMY: The Complete Node JS Developer Course\nTeaching you to build Node.js apps from scratch by walking you through the implementation of four different applications. The course is comprised of over 18 hours of video spread out over 150 videos. You'll explore popular Node JS 3rd party modules like Express, Sequelize, and others. You'll also learn how to host your code on GitHub and deploy it live on Heroku!\nUDEMY: Learn Nodejs by building 10 projects\nTake an hands-on in-depth tour of developing Node.js applications, by building applications. You'll receive over 86 lectures and 18.5 hours of content. The projects are:\n- Project 1 - Simple Web Server\n- Project 2 - Basic Express Website\n- Project 3 - User Login System\n- Project 4 - Node Blog Systems\n- Project 5 - Community Events\n- Project 6 - BookStore\n- Project 7 - Chat IO\n- Project 8 - Doctor Directory\n- Project 9 - Portfolio App\n- Project 10 - Elearning System\nUDEMY: Advanced Node.js Development\nThis course focuses on application developing using the AJAX model. That's an acronym for Asynchronous Javascript and XML, which relies on the browser page sending an asynchronous request to server-side code, and getting responses in XML. However, this course uses JSON rather than XML so shouldn't this be called AJAJ? User authentication is demonstrated with PassportJS.\nUDEMY: All about Node.js | From the Ground Up and More\nThis course takes you from the beginning, showing you how to build a Node.js application and deploy it to the cloud. The applications are -\nChatCAT - A multi-room chat application of a type which would be useful for Chat Servers, Gaming Servers, Collaborative Tools etc. You'll learn about Websockets, Structuring your App in an efficient manner, creating and using development & production configurations, Authentication using Facebook, Setting up an App on Facebook, Managing Sessions, Querying & Using a Hosted MongoDB Database, and more.\nPhotoGRID - This app lets users upload images into a gallery with the ability to vote on images they like. Users upload images, they're resized into thumbnails, and stored in Amazon S3 buckets. You'll learn about managing file uploads using NodeJS & AJAX, Resizing Images on the Server, Accessing & Storing files in an S3 Bucket, Querying & Using a Hosted MongoDB Database, Using Amazon's Elastic IP Service & Cloudfront distribution.\nThe course has been expanded a couple times, and includes a section on ES-2015 features. You'll get a free eBook on ES-2015 features.\nUDEMY: NodeJS in Action\nThis is another advanced course, showing how to integrate a broad range of technology to create a complete application stack.

This book covers the full gamut of using Grunt from configuring the pre-existing tasks, to writing your own tasks.\nGetting Started with Grunt: The JavaScript Task Runner\nGrunt is the equivalent to \"make\" or \"ant\" for the Node.js platform, making it very important to understand its usage. The book first shows you how to install, configure, and run Grunt, then use 3rd party Grunt tools, and finally how to implement your own Grunt tasks fitting your needs. Along the way you experience an excellent walkthrough of the Node.js ecosystem.\nUDEMY: GRUNT js: Automate web development tasks and save your time\nYour time is valuable, and it's best to automate everything you can.

A beautiful place in the mountains...\nSaturdayevening we got some good food and then we went to bed early, tired after the whole day of travelling. Sundaymorning we prepared for the two church services in the afternoon. The group is amazing in singing, so we prepared some songs in swedish, and one of the guys prepared a testimony to share... the pastor really liked it, it is hard to say, what the people thought about it, they left just after the service. we got to experience the romanian culture, they don't have the cars on base at the moment, so we are travelling by maxi taxi...and just to let you know, it was snowing here to, and the buildings are not half as good isolated as in Sweden!!\nToday we started devotion with Psalm 121 while we were standing in the sunny garden, looking at the mountains freshly covered with snow!! To get to know the culture better, we had to eat sunflower seeds and dance the romanian penguin dance the afternoon followed with lots of preparation one for the youth group tonight, where they shared about swedish culture and prepared some games. They get really to experience OM when the should sing more and more songs and spontaneously share something with the young people there.\nthey do really well, the food and hospitality of OM Romania is amazing. The group is motivated and exited.\nPlease pray for us, as we go to a village in the mounatins on Wednesday and do a programm in a Kindergarden on Thursday.\nGreetings from Romania"}

{"text": "[245 U.S. 480, 481] Mr. Joseph W. Sharts, of Dayton, Ohio, for plaintiffs in error.\nMr. Solicitor General Davis, of Washington, D. C., for the United States.\nMr. Chief Justice WHITE delivered the opinion of the Court.\nSchue was indicted for having failed to register as required by the Act of Congress of May 18, 1917 (Public Act No. 12, 65th Congress, c. 15, 40 Stat. 76), known as the Selective Draft Law, and in the same indictment it was charged that Ruthenberg, Wagenknecht and Baker, the plaintiffs in error 'did aid, abet, counsel, command and induce' Schue in failing to register 'and procure him to commit the offense involved in his so doing.' Schue pleaded guilty and the other three defendants were tried, found guilty and sentenced. Because of objections raised to the constitutionality of the act this direct writ of error was prosecuted.\nAs every contention made in this case concerning the unconstitutionality of the Selective Draft Law was urged in Arver v. United States, 245 U.S. 366 , 38 Sup. Ct. 159, 62 L. Ed. --, and held to be without merit, that subject may be put out of view. The remaining assignments of error are to say the least highly technical and require only the briefest notice.\nThe want of merit in the proposition that constitutional [245 U.S. 480, 482] or statutory rights were denied the plaintiffs in error, who were Socialists, because the grand and trial juries were composed exclusively of members of other political parties and of property owners, is demonstrated by previous adverse rulings upon similar contentions urged by negro defendants indicted and tried by juries composed of white men. Martin v. Texas, 200 U.S. 316, 320 , 321 S., 26 Sup. Ct. 338; Thomas v. Texas, 212 U.S. 278, 282 , 29 S. Sup. Ct. 393.\nA further objection that plaintiffs in error were prejudiced by the refusal of the court below to permit them in examining the jurors to inquire whether they distinguished between socialists and anarchists is likewise disposed of by previous decisions. Spies v. Illinois, 123 U.S. 131 , 8 Sup. Ct. 22; Thiede v. Utah Territory, 159 U.S. 510 , 16 Sup. Ct. 62; Holt v. United States, 218 U.S. 245, 248 , 31 S. Sup. Ct. 2, 20 Ann. Cas. 1138\nIt is contended that plaintiffs in error were not tried by a jury of the state and district in which the crime was committed, in violation of the Sixth Amendment, because the jurors were drawn not from the entire district but only from one division thereof. The proposition disregards the plain text of the Sixth Amendment, the contemporary construction placed upon it by the Judiciary Act of 1789 (1 Stat. 73, 88, c. 20, 29) expressly authorizing the drawing of a jury from a part of the district, and the continuous legislative and judicial practice from the beginning. Section 802, Revised Statutes; section 277, Judicial Code (Comp. St. 1916 , 1254); Agnew v. United States, 165 U.S. 36, 43 , 17 S. Sup. Ct. 235; United States v. Wan Lee (D. C.) 44 Fed. 707; United States v. Ayres (D. C.) 46 Fed. 651; United States v. Peuschel (D. C.) 116 Fed. 642, 646; Clement v. United States, 149 Fed. 305, 79 C. C. A. 243; Spencer v. United States, 169 Fed. 562, 565, 566, 95 C. C. A. 60; United States v. Merchants', etc., Co. (C. C.) 187 Fed. 355, 359, 362.\nIt is argued that the court below erred in refusing to quash the indictment on the ground that it had been found 'without a sworn charge previously made.' It is settled [245 U.S. 480, 483] that such a charge is unnecessary. Frisbie v. United States, 157 U.S. 160, 163 , 15 S. Sup. Ct. 586; Hale v. Henkel, 201 U.S. 43, 59 , 60 S., 26 Sup. Ct. 370.\nFurther, it is said, the indictment was insufficient because it did not allege that Schue, who it was charged refused to register, was a citizen of the United States or was a person not an alien enemy who had declared his intention to become such citizen. But this overlooks the fact that although only the persons described were subject to military duty under the terms of the act, by section 5 'all male persons between the ages of 21 and 30 both inclusive' (with certain exceptions not here material) were required to register. It was sufficient to charge, therefore, as the indictment did, that Schue was a male person between the designated ages.\nThe contention that more than one offense was charged in the same indictment is without merit. Section 332 of the Criminal Code provides that:\nThe indictment, therefore, charged but one offense-the refusal of Schue to register-plaintiffs in error being charged as principals in procuring such refusal. And this also disposes of a further contention based upon the same misconception that as at common law there could be no accessory to a misdemeanor, no offense was charged in the indictment.\nOther errors are assigned but we do not expressly notice them, some because they are not urged in argument, others because they are so unsubstantial as not to require even statement, and we content ourselves with saying that after a careful examination of the whole record we find no error and the judgment is\nAffirmed."}

However I long to start with the Sweeper of Dreams, an amazingly gothic bit of steamprog that is based on a Neil Gaiman short story and with Mike in fine form\nHowever the albums main focus is on the Sea, with various tracks across the album, with the title coming from Norse mythology where a man wished for a saltcellar but he got too greedy and it flowed into the sea, which is now why the sea is salty.\nGabriele Baldocci is an amazing find for the band and his astonishing keyboard playing flows through the album. Fluid, seamless and powerful, particularly on the opening track At Sea, which with it’s symphonic sound, and it’s nod to old school prog.\nThe album works so well because everything flows seamlessly and their biggest strengths are their songwriting ability where they focus on the sounds and feel of the album, and because this album is a massive development from their previous album, and as I said earlier Mike Morton has never sounded better, and the band that the Gift have become may have produced one of the strongest albums of last year.\nAn essential purchase."}

{"text": "Consultants bag £37m from failed e-Borders contract …\nMinor Costs\nAt least the cost's of Deloitte are significantly cheaper than the rest of the project. £37 Million is small change after all. Mind I can't help wondering what this in fact paid for given that the project failed dismally...................\nStupid Project\nIt's a stupid, hopelessly optimistic project that will, in all probability, never really work.\nPlus it's possibly illegal under EU law... So glad we're cutting health and education but continuing with a £1.2b project.\nRe: Stupid Project\nBut... it's in and working, and the money has already been spent on it, so it would be an even bigger waste of money to not continue with it.\nEr, not really\ne-Borders is only working for flights. The UKBA have no idea how to make it work for Eurostar, cross channel ferries or private sailing boats. Nor are there viable solutions for the Eire/NI border. Or for travel to and from the Isle of Man. Deloitte's have nothing to be proud of. The e-Borders system is predicated on having a sealed border, and checking everyone who comes in or out against a central database, before they travel. This will never happen, as the UK's borders are far too porous. EU rules says no-one has to tell the UKBA anything about their travel plans in advance if all they are doing is crossing an internal EU border. Deloittte's should have told the UKBA (run by Lin Homer, paid over £200,000 a year for presiding over this mess) that it would never work. One page report. Fee £20,000. end of story.\n\"Massive contract to be re-tendered\"\nHow about split up into smaller sections non mega-conglomerates have a chance of tendering (and delivering) on ?\nThey *might* see some actual competition this time..\n\"Highly motivated\"\nI bet they were - £37 million for a few days chinwag. Almost beats the Bankers Bonuses!\nNot as bad as the bankers\nIf you think this comes anywhere near the banksters' bonuses, you haven't been paying attention. £37million is less than 0.1% of the annual banking bonuses paid in recent years. It's still a disgrace though.\nThroughout the engagement Deloitte ...\n\"Throughout the engagement Deloitte ... enabled the programme to develop an integrated, multi-disciplinary team who were highly motivated, professional and delivery-focused.\" (Who never finished the job)\nWhat a lot of codswallop - the only success they achieved was extracting unjustified fees from the tax payer.\n@JaitcH\nThat's highly motivated in delivering *profit* to their shareholders, professional in lining their corporate pockets and focused in delivering as much tax payers cash as possible to the company coffers.\nYou just need to understand how to read these sorts of documents.\n\"highly motivated\"\nI spent many months on the project, and I cant think of a less apt phrase to use regarding the consortium. The inter-company contracts were a farce, making delivery of functional code a joke. Would be better to split it up into smaller contracts that could be managed more effectively by the Home Office.\nWait a minute, \"managed more effectively by the Home Office\"; there must be a joke in there somewhere...\n</coat>\n</door>\nNice\nNice work if you can get it.\nIt's ok\nJust cut back on naughty mags for sperm donors, we'll save £37M in no time ...\nUk Borders\nThis is probably the only useful tool against illegal immigration, The problem they had with deporting immigrants is that they would go to another country and get another identity and come back again. The eBorders uses biometrics and they are a little harder to fake\n(Note in China some women were arrested for using fake latex fingerprints, apparently there's a hugh black market for them in China and there fingerprint database is roughly 104million)\nWhats actually happening is that there is a mini arms race with biometrics where every country is tryng to collect as much as possible and the UK has managed to cock it up but still want in so they are deciding to piss away more money but they keep using prehistoric civil servants who are still amazed that PCs no longer come with floppy drives and the only way to run an IT project is through the \"Tradition Life Cycle\""}

{"text": "Today’s Bible Journaling comes from Romans 4:21, “and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.” (NASB) This Scripture is about Abraham and the promise God gave him. To get background on the story we need to read Genesis 15 -18. God promised Abraham (Abram at the time) that he would have a son. Now to most people, that’s not a problem, but Abraham was 100 years old and his wife, Sarah (Sarai), was 90 and barren. But God did the impossible and they had their son of promise, Isaac.\nThere is great comfort in knowing that God does the impossible! It strengthens my faith and reinforces my trust in His ability to carry through on the promises He makes to me. When things look the most dismal, when all I see is impossible situations, God is there. The phrase, “But God” says it all. When logic tells us that nothing good can come out of this thing we’re going through, “But God!” When we are in despair and all we see is a deep, dark pit, “But God!” When we see NO answer in front of us, “But God!”\nHe is the answer and He provides the answers. He makes a way where there seems to be no way. The promises in His Word are for us and we can believe with our whole hearts that He will keep His promises. He proves it over and over again.\nI can’t imagine what Abraham and Sarah must have thought. I mean, they are both well up in years, Sarah was well past the age of giving birth and had been barren her entire life, and yet God says they will have a son! The Bible says that when Sarah heard it, she laughed. (Genesis 18:12) I think I would too. I’d be thinking, “You’ve got to be kidding!” Abraham believed God, and the book of Romans tells us that “it was accounted to him for righteousness.” (Romans 4:3 NASB) God’s promise was a covenant between Abraham and God (Genesis 15) God told Abraham that his descendants would be as the stars in the sky! God made a great nation from Abraham’s seed. As I was reading this passage, I saw that God told Abraham that his descendants would live in a land that was not their own and be enslaved (verse 13). They would have great possessions when their enslavement was over and the country who captured them would be punished by God. Then God gave the land we now know as Israel to Abraham and his descendants. That was a promise made to Abraham, and the fruition of that promise came about in 1948 as Israel became a nation. At the time, Jews had been escaping to the Promised Land, what we now know as Israel, to get out of the reach of the Nazis. Jews have been persecuted since the very beginning, and still are today. Their situation seems hopeless, enemies on all sides, the nations come against them…” But God!” They are His people and He protects them.\nI love “But God” moments! It proves to me that He loves me, it proves that He knows just where I am and just what I’m going through, it proves that He will always have my back! He is the God of the impossible! Are you going through an impossible situation? Does the world seem to be at odds with you? Just remember, “But God!”"}

{"text": ">> photography. Any field of visual art highly values composition. The way color, line, shape, space, value, form, and texture are combined in a picture affects the photo as a whole. Composition is a main element in visual arts. To ignore composition is to forget about becoming a good photographer.\nListed below are 14 effective composition techniques that beginners and advanced photographers can practice over and over again to achieve beautiful photos.\nTip 1: Know the Rules before Breaking Them\nWhile composition techniques are not rocket science, every craft has a set of rules that one should always run to for foundation. The best works of art are produced by bending the rules but if you don’t know the rules, then there are no rules to bend. For example, patterns may be very common in many photographs but they are really striking when highlighted. Beginners can practice on looking for these patterns to practice on composition. Another composition technique that advanced photographers give to beginners is to master symmetry. Many beautiful photographs are asymmetrical but mastering symmetry will make it easier to experiment with asymmetry.\nTip 2: Simplicity is beauty.\nWhen in doubt, leave it out. One of the timeless composition tips involves simplicity. This is very much applicable in photos for photo journalism. In photo journalism, most tips on photo composition technique will tell you not to include any element that does not unify the supposed theme the photo. While wide angle lenses are awesome , they tend to include too many elements in a photo. Get rid of elements that do not support your subject or the entire photo.\nTip 3: Rule of Thirds\nSHOT WITH: Nikon D300S and Tamron 17-50mm lens\nThe rule of thirds is one of the classic composition techniques that both beginners and professionals will find absolutely useful. The rule of thirds involves dividing the whole frame into thirds. What will come is a box of 9 squares, similar to a tic-tac-toe box. You are going to block of parts of the images in the boxes. Meanwhile, the points where the box lines intersect will be where the interesting elements should be. This is considered one of the most basic photography composition techniques because this can be used for landscape and portrait photography .\nTip 4: Balance of Elements\nBalancing elements is considered a huge rule in composition technique. The most well-known rule in photography is to put the subject in the center and make one side symmetrical to the other side. This is otherwise known as formal balance. However, this is not the only way to balance elements in the photo. You can still achieve asymmetrical balance and make a photo look interesting. However, remember to balance the other side with something if you put the main subject off center. It doesn’t have to be symmetrical but you can put a less important subject on the other side.\nTip 5: The Importance of Composition in Landscape\nHad I taken this shot just 15 minutes earlier (or later) the natural light from the sun wouldn’t have given me the shadows or reflections off the rocks I was looking to for.\nComposition techniques are highly effective in landscape shots because these shots are usually dramatic. Aside from the rule of thirds, you have to know what the photo should be about. Is it about the vast expanse? The sparkling blue waters? This you have to know so you have an emphasis. Also, layers in the landscape shots are very important. There’s the foreground, middleground, and the background. Fill these levels harmoniously.\nTip 6: Don’t Underestimate Lines\nSHOT WITH: Nikon D300S and Tamron 17-50mm lens\nThe simplest composition techniques tackle the use of lines because it is the best way to add drama to your photo effortlessly, especially in architecture photography. Straight horizontal and vertical lines have immense strength while curved lines lend a soft touch to the photo. Use lines to lead the eyes to the photos primary subject too.\nTip 7: Use Shapes to Your Advantage\nLearning how to use shape in your photographs is also crucial. Shapeless photos tend to look awkward. composition tips explain that austere shapes like diamonds, squares, and triangles are easier to work with than soft, round shapes. Position your primary subjects in such a way that they form a recognizable shape.\nTip 8: Experiment with Various Viewpoints\nSHOT WITH: Nikon D300S and Tokina 11-16mm lens\nThis is one of the more challenging composition techniques because the ideal viewpoint varies from subject to subject. The best advice for this aspect is to keep experimenting and venture outside shooting from eye level. This explains why many good photographers go as far as lying down on the ground. They walk an extra mile to find the best viewpoint.\nTip 9: Playing with Contrasts\nInteresting photographs don’t always have complementary colors, shapes, or textures. While it’s easy to work with subjects that have a prominent relationship with each other, working with contrasting objects is very rewarding because the proper use of compositional techniques will highlight the contrasts wonderfully.\nTip 10: Learning how to Frame\nFraming is an important element of photography composition. The perceived safe rule of most beginners is to put the focal point in the center but doing this often is dangerous because not all focal points look good when framed in the center. Centering subjects works for portraits but for other photos, experimenting with off-center framing may enhance the photo quality. Combine framing techniques with other composition techniques (e.g. lines, shapes) to find the right fit.\nTip 11: Appreciating Depth of Field\nThe depth of field is the area where focus is the sharpest. The general rule is the depth of field will have a more even distribution if the the camera is closer to the subject. This is one of the more studied composition techniques because it is affected by things like focal length of the lens , size of the image, and the aperture.\nTip 12: Employment of Negative Space\nSHOT WITH: Nikon D300S and Tamron 17-50mm lens\nComposition tips regarding negative space is one of the more in-demand pieces of advice because there is a tendency to fill in objects to fit the frame . However, there are times when the negative space is needed for a dramatic effect.
