A couple of days ago, Dave Silverman, President of American Atheists, wrote this guest post on why atheists should go door-to-door trying to convert people to atheism. Here’s his thesis:
I’ve said before that atheism is perfect (as it contains no exceptions, fallacies, or lies), and we all know countless people who have recovered from their religion and now live freer and happier lives. Indeed, I can’t think of anyone who is not better off (in their own opinion) after leaving religion.
So why aren’t we converting theists? Why aren’t we preaching? If we are to accept that religion is a poison, and if we look at the anecdotal evidence of everyone we know being better off after dumping mythology, and we have a literally flawless philosophy, why aren’t atheists preaching atheism, actively and emphatically?
So I actually disagree with literally everything in this piece, mostly because it’s completely absurd. Fortunately, most of the people in the comments seem to think so too, and in most of the discussion elsewhere, this article is being thoroughly and deservedly mocked. So I thought I’d join in.
First, I take issue with Silverman describing atheism as “perfect” and “a literally flawless philosophy.” Silverman seems to think that the only criterion for a “flawless” philosophy is that it contains no “exceptions, fallacies, or lies.” Which is pretty easy to do when your entire philosophy consists of three words (“God doesn’t exist.”) I also think that Silverman should aim a bit higher than “does not refute itself” when shopping for philosophies. Ideally, there should be some sort of meaning, or purpose, or a moral code that he can adhere to. Instead, he seems to be saying that as long as a philosophy is self-consistent, it’s “literally flawless.” That’s a pretty low standard for flawlessness.
Next is Silverman’s assertion that atheism directly improves people’s lives. He defends this point by saying that he doesn’t know anyone who is worse off after deconverting. Color me surprised that the president of a national atheist organization would surround himself with people who are enthusiastic about their atheism. Let’s say there’s a bit of a sampling bias going on here. Just because everyone in Silverman’s circle of friends is happier as an atheist doesn’t mean that everyone is happier as an atheist. In fact, the people who are unhappy as atheists are probably less likely to go to atheist conferences, read atheist blogs, or be involved in the atheist movement where Silverman is getting all his anecdotes.
And I would like to point out that there is also a large group of people who used to be atheists, and have since converted to a religion. Many of these people will say that their lives have improved since their conversion; are we supposed to completely dismiss their testimony? Maybe people switching from one religious belief to another aren’t very good judges of what makes them happier. Or maybe religions are like ice cream, and different people prefer different flavors. Regardless, I’m entirely unconvinced by Silverman’s anecdotal evidence.
In the second paragraph, Silverman states, as a premise, that religion is a poison. He doesn’t provide any arguments to back up this assertion, likely because he sees it as self-evident. I disagree. Religious people do bad things sometimes, and religious people do good things sometimes, just as atheists sometimes do good things or bad things. Arguing that the atheists who do bad things are just bad people who happen to be atheists, while the religious people who do bad things are motivated by their religion, is an unfair double standard.
Also, as many people point out in the comments to the piece, door-to-door proselytizing is really annoying, and of questionable effectiveness. Silverman ignores both of these points (or maybe hasn’t even considered them), and does nothing to assuage my fears that this strategy will accomplish little more than to make a bunch of religious people hate atheists even more than they already do.
Unfortunately, this isn’t just some silly piece that people will laugh about and then ignore. This was written by the president of perhaps
the largest one of the most prominent atheist organizations in the United States, and the thinking (or lack thereof) that inspired it also guides the policy decisions of American Atheists. And this is hardly a new direction for Silverman. I’ve written about his skewed priorities before, here and here. It’s very obvious that Silverman seems to prioritize making more atheists over nearly anything else, including improving the public perception of atheists and challenging diversity issues within the movement. This is also consistent with the actions his organization has taken over the years, including funding needlessly antagonizing billboards and wildly unpopular lawsuits.
And it’s very clear now that my goals and Silverman’s goals are opposed. My stated goals are not to make more atheists, but rather to improve the world in such a way as to minimize suffering. I’m a part of the atheist movement because discrimination against atheists causes suffering, and the best way to end that discrimination is to fight for equal rights and representation of atheists in all walks of life. Perhaps one of the best ways to end atheist discrimination is to improve the public perception of atheists, by showing religious people that atheists are nice people that they can get along with and be friends with.
All of that is undermined by Silverman’s efforts to antagonize and irritate religious believers in the hopes that they will become atheists. Instead of seeing atheists as decent, ordinary people, Silverman’s actions will cause people to feel even worse about us. Silverman’s post isn’t just silly, or absurd, but (if his advice is followed) directly harmful to the cause. But I suspect that Silverman himself will never realize this.
One thing that I noticed after having written most of this post is that, throughout Silverman’s piece, he frames religious believers as “victims” who are “trapped in their own mythos” and who need help to “live freer and happier lives.” While dissecting this mindset would take a completely separate post, I’m going to say that treating adults who have different religious beliefs as though they need our help to escape from the unspecified horrors of believing in a god is really weird and kinda creepy. I’m just picturing Silverman riding into a church on a white horse shouting, “I’ll save you!”

I painted these large ceramic ornaments for Mum and Dad many years ago. They are similar in size and sit together at opposite ends of the dining room buffet. They were painted several years apart so it was interesting to see them together as an example of one with 'antiquing' effect and one without.
Santa was the first one I did - as was my norm it has opaque paints, metallic paints, opalescent paints and a little glitter glaze.
The second one, Good King Wenceslas - or another old world Santa if you prefer - was the first and I think only time I tried the 'antiquing' technique. I don't mind telling you, after the amount of time I'd spent painting various things like the annoying - I mean detailed - cape lining, it took a lot of courage to cover it all up with brown paint. It was a scary moment indeed!
After sealing first with glaze, I applied some brown paint that I had watered down to be quite runny. You want to work in small areas so it doesn't dry too quickly, and just sponge off the excess as you go. When it's all dry, it's sealed again. Depending on the subject matter you're painting - I think this is a great finish.

Watch this BrainPOP video to learn more about insects. Look at these pictures of different arthropods; based on what you learned, decide if each one is an insect or not an insect; then see if you can label the parts of an insect.
Think about the body parts of an insect. What type of mouth part would best help an insect that sips nectar from flowers? Or, that sucks blood from another animal? What body design would help an insect to hide and then pounce on its prey? Keep these types of questions in mind as you choose one of these habitats and design an insect that is well suited to that environment using these worksheets. If you cannot print the worksheets, use your own paper.
Engineers use ideas that they steal from nature in many of their designs. Learn more about this process, called biomimicry, in this video. Can you think of a body structure of an insect that might be a good design for human technology? Draw and label a diagram of a design that uses biomimicry; if you can, make a physical model using clay and whatever you can find around the home and take a picture when you finish sharing with your teacher.
Science, Technology and Engineering often use Mathematics. That is why it is called STEM! Sharpen your math skills with these problems, and be sure to share your thinking with someone.
Leveled learning extension 1: Reinforce your math skills with these pages which offer more basic math problems!
Leveled learning extension 2: Tease your brain with these worksheets to target foundational math skills!
Use some of your “insect skills” to get some physical activity to keep your body healthy. What can you climb? What can you jump onto and off of? What can you crawl under? Set up an obstacle course and time yourself and others moving through it. Can you beat the record?

Uber 'truly sorry' for price rise during Sydney siege
- 24 December 2014
- From the section Technology
Taxi booking firm Uber has apologised for raising fare prices during a deadly cafe siege in Sydney last week.
The firm raised fares by as much as four times its normal rate when demand shot up during the siege that left three people dead.
Its "surge pricing" algorithm increased fares during the peak period as people rushed to leave the area.
Meanwhile in South Korea, prosecutors have charged the firm with running an illegal taxi service.
They have accused Uber's chief executive Travis Kalanick, along with the firm's South Korean business partner, a local car rental firm.
Car rental firms in the country are banned from running taxi services with their own vehicles.
It is the latest in a string of legal challenges around the world to the rapid expansion of Uber, whose smartphone app lets a passenger hail a taxi while simultaneously letting the driver calculate the fare.
On the day of the Martin Place siege in Sydney, Uber came under heavy criticism on social media for raising its fares, so it started offering free rides out of the city.
It also said it would refund the cost of the rides that had been affected by the higher fares.
"The events of last week in Sydney were upsetting for the whole community and we are truly sorry for any concern that our process may have added," Uber said in a blog post on Tuesday.
"We didn't stop surge pricing immediately. This was the wrong decision."
The 16-hour siege ended with three people dying, including the gunman Man Haron Monis.
The company said that its priority was to help as many people get out of the central business area safely, but that was "poorly" communicated, and led to a lot of misunderstanding about its motives.
"This [surge pricing] encourages more drivers to the area where people are requesting rides," when demand outstrips the supply of cars on the road, Uber said.
Uber has defended its surge pricing strategy in other cities, but reached an agreement with regulators in the US to restrict the policy during national emergencies.
Analysis: Dave Lee, technology reporter
The way Uber works is simple.
Drivers - who need a private hire licence - use their own cars. Once signed up, they use the Uber drivers' app to receive bookings, a process which replaces the traditional minicab office.
Riders, meanwhile, are able to use the riders' app to virtually hail an Uber car, and can track its location as it weaves and bobs through city streets.
After the ride, Uber calculates a fee based on distance and time, and it is paid directly through the app - no money changes hands in the car.
So far, so good. But Uber has faced a lot of criticism.
First, there is "surge pricing". Designed to get more drivers on the roads during busy periods, surge pricing means the fare is jacked up by two, three, sometimes four times the normal fare.
The app has also suffered at the hands of both traditional taxi firms and regulators in cities the world over.
In London, black cab drivers strongly argue that the Uber app is essentially a meter and is therefore breaking strict rules.
To become a black cab driver with a meter, a long, expensive and notoriously difficult test must be passed.
Uber drivers do not need to do this, giving an unfair advantage, cabbies say.
In other countries, there are disagreements about how Uber vets its drivers.
In Delhi, the firm has suspended operations while it improves the recruitment process after a driver was arrested in relation to the rape of a passenger.
Regulators in Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Francisco have all raised concerns over the vetting process in their respective cities.
The company's regulatory woes are supplemented by several serious PR mishaps in recent months, including the revelation it was tracking journalists' journeys and that a senior executive had suggested it should consider paying investigators to "dig up dirt" on journalists who had written negative stories about the firm. Uber later apologised and said the executive's views had "no relation" to its official "views or approach".
Despite all this, however, the company recently secured $1.2bn in funding, valuing the firm at $40bn (£25.6bn) as it heads into 2015.

Three leading supermarkets have cut the cost of diesel and petrol due to a drop in the price of oil.
Asda has already reduced its prices by 2p per litre, with Morrisons and Sainsbury's set to follow suit, reports Cornwall Live.
Asda is now charging 118.7p per litre for unleaded and 119.7p for diesel in response to a 5% fall in oil prices.
Morrisons revealed plans to match Asda's 2p reduction - at all 333 filling stations across the UK.
From tomorrow, Sainsbury’s is cutting the price of both unleaded petrol and diesel by up to 2p per litre across its 311 forecourts.
Tesco has not made an announcement of cuts but motorists have seen prices reduced in recent days.
However, the supermarkets should go further with their price reductions according to the RAC, who say a 7% drop in oil prices in the past fortnight should have been seen at the pumps sooner.
Speaking before today's cuts were revealed, RAC fuel spokesman Simon Williams said: “We urge the supermarkets to do the right thing and pass on savings in the wholesale cost of fuel they are currently benefitting from to motorists at the pumps just before half-term.
"The sharp drop in the price of oil gives them a perfect opportunity to reduce their pump prices by 3p.
"There is often talk of sudden supermarket price wars over fuel, but in reality we all know they constantly use petrol and diesel prices to drive customers into their stores.
"Saying that, the fall in the wholesale fuel price gives them a great opportunity to turn up the heat in what has become something of a ‘cold pump price war’ in recent weeks. The question is which supermarket will make the first move.
"We know there is plenty of scope for the supermarkets to cut as we are aware of several money-off promotions tied to certain levels of spend in store as well as some big regional anomalies in price.
"In Taunton in Somerset, for example, supermarkets are selling petrol for around 112p a litre which is 10p lower than the UK average and 7p lower than the supermarket average.”

Initially founded by Austrian-Italian Peter Pilotto, Belgian-Peruvian Christopher De Vos joined the label in 2007. The duo met studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and now base their label in London.
De Vos and Pilotto combine their skills in silhouette, drapery, textiles and print to create innovative and contemporary designs. Complex graphics juxtapose soft, sculptural shapes and combinations of textures and bold colours form the ever evolving style of the design duo.
Peter Pilotto was awarded NewGen sponsorship by the British Fashion Council, won the Swarovski Emerging Talent award in 2010, won the Fashion Forward prize in 2011, and was awarded the 2014 BFC/VOGUE fashion fund and The Swarovski Collective Award in 2015.
The label is frequently worn by high profile celebrities such as Naomie Harris, Kate Bosworth, Lupiya Nyong’o and Emma Roberts. Pilotto and De Vos have undertaken a number of collaborations with brands including Target, Ancient Greek Sandals, Kipling, Lisa Marie Fernandez and Nicholas Kirkwood. Currently sold in over 50 countries Peter Pilotto is stocked by luxury retailers such as Net-a-Porter, Selfridges, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman.
Christopher De Vos said;
“The Victoria and Albert Museum has played host to a number of talented designers and we are honoured to be holding a show there”.
Peter Pilotto said;
“Art and artefacts are such a source of inspiration to us that it seems fitting to be showcasing a retrospective of the brand amidst such incredible history”. Cassie Davies-Strodder, Fashion in Motion curator, said; “We are really pleased to be showing the dramatic layering, texture and print power of the Peter Pilotto label as part of the Fashion in Motion series.”

In many ways, Williamsburg’s newest venue couldn’t be more different from the (mostly) defunct DIY show spaces (bar/art-galleries and dingy old warehouses) that once lined the waterfront area. (Cameo, at least, is still here — for another month and a half, anyway). That’s because National Sawdust is a refined concert hall, a serious non-profit institution with powerful and moneyed supporters plus a leadership of established talent tapped directly from the music and art worlds.
But like the small, indie venues of yore, National Sawdust’s focus is lesser-known artists– though these are not the punk bands or even indie rock acts of their predecessors. Instead, these fabulous acoustics are reserved for a certain caliber of performer, one that attracts patrons as opposed to fans. By the look of things, when National Sawdust opens tonight, it will bring to Williamsburg an undeniably uptown approach to music.
Paola Prestini, a successful composer and curator who now serves as the artistic and executive director at National Sawdust, showed us around the brand new venue and arts institution earlier this week. The place was filled with workers doing sound checks and putting the finishing touches on the building. Now National Sawdust is finally ready, backed by $16 million and perfected after seven years of polishing.
Last month, founder Kevin Dolan, 63, a successful tax attorney and amateur composer, was profiled by New York magazine along with his plans for the space. Through fundraising and curator recruitment, National Sawdust (the non-profit was first known as Original Music Project) became much bigger than what he’d originally imagined for what was supposed to be his “post-retirement project.” Now, he told the mag, he envisions an institution that could be around “100 years from now.”
National Sawdust is the opposite of a traditional for-profit venue staying afloat by way of ticket sales and booze income, or the barely breathing DIY spaces that could shutter at any minute. The non-profit goes above and beyond simply providing a stage and sound system for musicians and relying on a booker to do the legwork. Instead, they’ve selected a massive team of 24 curators to draw up the calendar. “We have way too many curators this year,” Prestini admitted. “I thought it was going to be difficult to fill up the space, but we basically filled it in a second.”
The curators, Prestini said, are people she “really, really admires.” Their ranks include successful musicians (Jeffrey Zeigler of Kronos Quartet), artists working in other mediums (Reggie “Regg Rock” Gray, a dancer), and as a nod to the Brooklyn music scene and the music bizz side of things, Billy Jones, co-owner of Baby’s All Right and Elvis Guesthouse.
They’re all here to help carry out National Sawdust’s mission by selecting artists, some emerging and some established, for a full year of shows. “That’s how we’ll discover new talent, and our own discoveries can then feed into other channels of curation,” Prestini explained of the in-house curation process, which will work hand-in-hand with the individual curators.
In addition to providing a performance venue, NS is dedicated to providing advanced services for musicians hoping to move into the professional realm, including career development workshops and an artist in residency program. “When I think about what we’re doing here as an institution, the thing I’m most excited about is what we can offer young artists to help them bridge into professional life,” Prestini explained. “I think about when I was in my 20s living in New York, and that’s how we’re designing our program.”
For 2015, NS has already selected 12 groups and individuals as artists in residence from all different backgrounds. “They come from all around the world,” Prestini said, and then started listing them off. “We have Netsayi from Zimbabe, who I’m really excited about, she’s a really fresh voice and a tremendous artist; Brooklyn Rider, a great young string quartet; Hessismore, a fun Danish band.” East Village Radio fixtures Chances With Wolves are listed on the website as another resident.
The residents will have access to the cutting-edge space, the opportunity to curate concerts, and record their music. “Commissions range from $2,500 to $15,000,” Prestini said proudly.
All these resources and fancy digs might sound scary if you’re used to paying DIY Williamsburg prices ($5, $8, maybe $10) for a show. But Prestini assured me tickets for most shows will cost between $15 and $25. “I wish we could be less than $25, but the reality is we’re non-profit, and ticket sales are one of the ways we can pay artists. Some of the bigger shows are more expensive, maybe $60, but we’ll never do more than one or two shows like that.”
A non-profit that treats musicians and audiences well? What’s not to love? The more I learned, the more I realized Dolan’s 100-year projection might not be that far-fetched. And in a neighborhood where nothing seems permanent anymore (not even the artists who made Williamsburg worthy of commodifying or the bored trust-fund kids who tried to buy what the artists had lived), that’s saying a lot. Kevin Dolan, the tax master that he is, was able to come up with a clever incentive for the five property owners (the deed indicates they are Dan Kyle Realty V, LLC), to hand the building over to National Sawdust, eventually.
“The founder had the genius idea of doing something called ‘philanthropic investment,’ where essentially the group of building owners agree to donate the property after five years,” Prestini explained as we were walking down the stairs, toward the extensive basement filled with a recording studio, video editing room, offices, and space for the artists in residence. “They’ll see an appreciation on the donation along with the property value’s increase, so essentially they’ll triple their [tax deductible] donation with the worth of the property. It’s a pretty interesting and clever plan, and it also serves as an insurance policy– if I fail miserably, they own a great piece of property forever.”
But, Prestini clarified, “I don’t intend to fail.”
National Sawdust seems to be striking a careful balance between super-duper ambitious and realistic. Capacity at the venue is 350 standing, 200 sitting– much smaller than nearby behemoth, the Music Hall of Williamsburg (550). Even Aviv can hold about 300 people, if Stuart Solomon guessed right when he gave me that number last year, days before the Greenpoint DIY venue opened.
“When they first designed the space they knew they wanted it to be able to fit a 70-piece orchestra so we could do, for example, film scores,” Prestini said. “But they wanted to make sure it always feels intimate, and now even the upstairs balcony still has tremendously beautiful sound.”
Guests will have to wait a couple more months for a restaurant run by James Beard Award-winning chef Patrick Connolly (“his first restaurant in New York City”) but come this evening “everyone will be dancing,” Prestini told us. That’s because James Murphy won’t be at his wine bar down the way, he’ll be noodling around the DJ booth at National Sawdust performing with a lineup of other musicians “exploring the acoustics” on opening night.
On the more contemporary side, Stephen Gosling, a “virtuositic piano player,” will present a piece composed by Prestini, while Jeffrey Ziegler (one of the curators) will play another Prestini piece for the cello. And an acoustic mandolinist will try out the venue’s capacity for classical sounds.
The first performances are pretty indicative of what’s to come from the venue: contemporary classical, international, sophisticated, copacetic experimentalism, public radio-ready sounds created by virtuosos and bright, burning talents. The first regular performance happening on Friday, for example, is fronted by Tanya Tagaq, an Inuit throat singer. “It has that variety of more institutional-type things but it can also be that club where you can come and see what’s really fresh,” Prestini said.
This blend of classical, international, and bright young things brings to mind the programming at Le Poisson Rouge, which National Sawdust has already drawn many comparisons to. “I often get people asking, ‘How is this going to be better than LPR?'” Prestini told us. “In a city like New York, the health of the industry exists in options and we’re just one other option. What makes us different is that we are a non-profit so we do have that base of funding we can support artists with, as well as our recording opportunities.”
James Murphy isn’t a total flash in the pan; Prestini said there will be more DJ set and electronic acts. The big concern, however, “is making something that’s not about famous artists,” she said emphatically. “It’s not like, ‘Oh you’re going to come and hear Yo-Yo Ma’– no, you’re going to come and you’re going to hear someone who may not be the next Yo-Yo Ma, but who we think is killer.”
The space itself is nothing short of impressive. The director pointed to the boundary between the performance area and the bar. “The space is isolated acoustically,” she explained. “We have a two-ton door from London, it’s the only kind we could find that would provide the isolation we need.”
That massive door is just one example of all the custom fittings, fine tunings, and exceptional pieces of engineering and planning that went into National Sawdust’s physical space, but also how things are run. Acoustics were top priority in the remodeling process, so the organization hired an “acoustic consulting firm” to ensure sound quality would be nothing less than perfect.
Whether you can believe such a ridiculous thing or not, it’s true that the entire performance space is suspended on giant springs. “It’s so sound doesn’t travel through the air or the ground,” Prestini clarified. Oh, right.
The venue is named for the building’s original occupant, National Sawdust, which was exactly what it sounds like– a sawdust manufacturer. (The company’s name remains on the brick facade.) So clearly some major revamping had to be done to prevent the hollow din of an open warehouse, but the lengths to which the organization went are truly mind boggling. “Acoustic curtains that are hidden behind these acoustically transparent panels give musicians the opportunity to tune the room in a very facile way,” Prestini explained. “It could even be between sets.”
The stage is also malleable. It can disappear into the floor and rise up to a height of the performers’ choosing. “The idea was to create a space that would sonically be able to house the piano, that was the point of departure,” Prestini said. “They based the whole thing off the model of European chamber halls.” But National Sawdust has blown the old ways out of the water.
We continued to stream through the various rooms of the building, while Prestini soothingly presented to me the variety of amenities, luxuries, and technological feats that could very well define a new standard for concert halls. Somehow, I started to feel like I was a billionaire playboy gone yacht shopping. All these gadgets and fixtures are amazing, for sure, but does one really, really, truly need all of this? Does music really sound that much better in a place that’s this acoustically sensitive? (So sensitive, I noticed Prestini flinching as the workers banged and stomped, and blared “test-test-test-test” through the speakers, as if they would break the sense of stiff perfection that hung in the air.)
But National Sawdust is trying to do something that no one else in the music venue business has done in New York City, and that’s provide emerging classical and professional musicians with a hip spot to perform, play, practice, and record but also a mega-endowed set of resources and support, all inside Williamsburg.
And actually this emphasis on newness extends throughout the organization. Prestini– a composer, curator, and music bizz entrepreneur though she might be– has never run an institution this ambitious. When they were recruited, the architects had never worked on a building before. “It goes along with the whole ethos of the space,” Prestini said.
Save for the original painted signage on the brick facade out front, and a corner of the building with the old, un-muraled bricks encased in glass, everything has been remodeled, torn out, rethought and, above all– tightly, tightly curated to be just so. There’s no room for looseness or intuition. This is restricted airspace.
A requisite colorful street-art mural covers a large chunk of the building outside, seemingly there to bring the alien institution up to North Brooklyn Code. Other than the indecipherable mural, there’s little else here that looks like anything at all the music scene around these parts has ever seen. “What’s so exciting and nerve wracking, in a city where there’s so much for artists, there’s also so little,” Prestini said. “In a way, I feel a huge amount of responsibility, and hopefully I’m leading this the right way, because we’ve been given this dream space.”

How do you know if the results of your mailing are statistically significant?
One of the great benefits of Direct Mail is that it's results are very measurable. However what isn't always clear is whether a trial's results are statistically significant or not.
For example if you mail 1000 items as a trial and get 32 responses, can you conclude that you have beaten your previous mailing which achieved 250 responses from 10,000 mailings? This handy Mailing Significance Calculator will tell you whether the difference is significant or not.
By significant we mean can we draw a conclusion that something has worked or not worked from the results we have got to date? This is not just an academic exercise, if we adopt or reject a mailing piece, promotional offer or data list without ensuring the decision is based on fact we stand the very real risk of rejecting profitable strategies or adopting unprofitable ones, based purely on 'gut feel'.
How readable is your copy?
Generally the less readable your copy, the lower your response rate. This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. If readers have to concentrate or struggle to understand your copy then your response rate will be compromised. The difficulty is that all too often we are very close to the copy we write, and don't realise that we may be making big assumptions about what the reader understands.
The Flesch Kincaid Grade Level calculator (external site) measures how readable you text is. You can simply copy and paste your text into this site and it will tell you the average reading age required to understand the piece.
Try tweaking a few paragraphs and see how the results change.
A really useful tool for anyone who needs to write copy for a mailshot (or anything else for that matter)

Pallet Flow Rack is an ideal solution if you need to increase the number of pallet positions and keep the ability to rotate stock; a first in, first out high-density storage system.
Pallet flow works like a conveyor system within the rack. Pallets are loaded at the charge or input end and then flow down inclined rollers to the pick faces. Available up to twenty-plus pallet positions deep, a pallet flow system dramatically increases your storage capacity.
Pallet flow racking is also good for holding warehouses and dispatch areas where pallets need to be removed quickly. Additionally, the system helps to keep employees at a safe distance from the forklifts that are replenishing the racks at the input end. Pallet Flow rack can provide an excellent return on investment, as it improves warehouse productivity, storage capacity, and efficiency.

|The University Record, September 11, 2000|
As part of VideoCulture: Three Decades of Video Art, the Museum of Art and Media Union are sponsoring a residency by New York-based video artist Chris Doyle. Trained as an architect at Harvard University, Doyle has emerged as a talent in video art, know for projects that focus on the objects of ordinary life, and his ability to transform our perceptions of them. He will present two new video art works while on campus:
The Jean Paul Slusser Gallery at the School of Art and Design is exhibiting a video installation of Dutch artist Aernout Mik through Oct. 22, shown here in preparation (photo of Slusser by Paul Jaronski, U-M Photo Services). Mik is known for combining architectural constructions and spatial interventions with live actors and/or silent video projects of people involved in a variety of motion and emotions. This solo exhibition is his first in the United States.
The Slusser Gallery is open noon8 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday, 11 a.m.4 p.m. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
The exhibitions are a contribution to a collaboration that joins the forces of 11 museums, galleries and arts education organizations in metropolitan Detroit to examine video art and its impact on contemporary culture. For more information on the collaboration, visit the Web at www.videoculture.org. To find out more about Doyle, visit the Web at www.umich.edu/~umma/chrisdoyle.

Cornelius Gurlitt's collection of artworks was discovered by chance in his Munich apartment in 2012. Pieces had been piled from floor to ceiling, behind discarded food wrappings and empty tins.
The collection includes paintings, sketches and prints, all handed down to Gurlitt from his art dealer father. It is valued at an estimated CHF1.23 billion ($1.4 billion). More than 200 of the paintings of inestimable value were the object of international search warrants issued long ago.

The Prime Minister of Poland, Ms. Beata Szydło, opened the International Mining Fair with a positive message on coal. In her address, she stated that Poland wants a power sector based on a secure energy mix, with special places for hard coal and lignite. By 2050, Poland plans to diminish its coal dependency to 50% on the assumption that a new nuclear power plant will be built. Vice Minister for Energy, Mr. Grzegorz Tobiszowski, said that with the investments now being made in new equipment, the coal mining sector will be able to make a real contribution to the Polish economy.
EURACOAL President, Dr. Cieslik, spoke at the fair’s press conference on why the modernisation of coal-fired power plants was a more secure and efficient way to meet climate targets than switching to imported gas. Relying on renewables alone was not yet an option, he said. In Germany, after the nuclear phase out and a reduction in coal/lignite generation, there would be a 200 TWh annual shortfall that must be filled.
At a related conference on coal, organised by the Polish Mining Chamber of Commerce and Industry in co-operation with EURACOAL, the main message was on building a COALition of perhaps ten EU Member States that see a role for secure and affordable coal in the “energy transition”. At its core would be those Member States that voted against adoption of the revised LCP BREF conclusions: Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia. Greece and Slovenia were also seen as possible allies.
Prof. Prusek of the Central Mining Institute (GIG) declared a new focus on mining and combustion technologies in order to reduce the environmental impacts of coal use. Alternative uses of coal are also the subject of active research with ongoing projects around Europe in the fields of coal gasification and hydrogenation. EURACOAL itself is working to establish a new network for European clean coal technologists engaged in globally competitive coal research (CoalTech2051).

I come from a family of cigarette smokers. Both my paternal and maternal grandparents smoked throughout my childhood, and a couple of them held onto the habit well into my early adult life. My parents have been cigarette smokers since they were teens. I couldn’t blame them, having myself learned how pervasive and effective the tobacco industry’s marketing efforts had been, and how much of a stronghold the industry had (read: has) over lobbying efforts attempting restrictive legislation.
Even in media, smoking was commonplace for my parents’ generation. I remember watching The X-Files with them when I was younger, and being drawn to the mystique and aloof-cool of the “Smoking Man” character. Cigarettes were normal. They were everywhere. It wasn’t even until I was already into my twenties before real smoking bans took hold across businesses, colleges, and other public spaces around the country.
The subliminal, covert manner in which smoking as an acceptable activity seeped into my own life took longer than did my parents’ (I was 24 when I started), but held tight as addictive tendencies are wont to do. My decision to become a smoker came from a different place than pop culture influence and mass marketing campaigns, but it was still born of a sense of cool and belonging – something that the idea of smoking seems to cling to. Word of mouth really is the best advertising. But, then the word changed.
Just like the cool of cigarette smoking in the past, eventually the crowds and scenes with which I ran adapted to the cool of vaping. By the time I discovered vaping, however, I was already well aware of the health problems and risks of smoking – and thus was leery of vaping as a reasonable alternative – until I tried it myself.
After some research (of which there is a slow, but steadily-growing body), and hearing countless testimonials from friends and colleagues alike, I finally kicked my habit – so to speak. A few missteps and cessation/cold-turkey attempts, and I eventually listened to those around me who were shifting their own habits to curb nicotine intake, and altogether stop smoking paper cigarettes and leaf tobacco. I started vaping.
I’m old enough not to care if vaping is “cool” (it is, apparently), and wise enough to know that it’s not “healthy” per se, but that’s not my point. My point is that vaping helps people quit smoking cigarettes. And, if we’re running the numbers, cigarettes are one of the worst health offenders, and deserve a run for their money. On a relative scale, vaping is not going to cause the laundry list of physical and mental health problems that are so obvious to us now in other nicotine products. With that information in mind, I have recently taken the conversation to my parents.
A couple of times over the years, I’d hear my parents discuss the need to quit, themselves – and it even “took” once or twice for some months. But, something always drew them back to the habit. Their techniques for quitting were old-school. Cold turkey and other oral fixation replacements were all they knew (my mom even tried to quit smoking with just Jolly Ranchers). My folks are from a different time. I needed to bring them up to speed.
It’s been a multi-part conversation, and is still ongoing. I often tell my parents that without vaping, I’d still have a terrible smokers cough (which I was horrified to have developed after having only smoked cigarettes for a few years). I’d be well on my way to a stroke (having had a TIA at only 30 years old). I tell them how different my lungs and my head feel by keeping the disgusting list of other carcinogens and chemicals found in paper cigarettes out of my body.
They know they need the same treatment. Having been smokers for most of their lives, the effects cigarettes have had on them are more pronounced and more dire. Whenever I can, though, I join my mom and dad for a “smoke.” I let them experience first-hand the ways that vaping can simultaneously fulfill the need for nicotine in their bloodstreams, and how it feels to have capable lungs for the rest of the day.
I think it’s working. My mom and I are going vape shopping for her next weekend. My dad’s a little tougher of a nut to crack, but he’s not nay-saying the tech. Maybe I just need to convince him it’ll help him look cool.

Thanks again Olav for the awesome dare minild!
As every Jam i’ve done, and often heard said: I didn’t get to finish it as much as I had wanted, but I learned alot.
Spent 6-8 hours over the course of two days, puttin things here and there, had a blast with designing something as simple as possible, with self imposed dares.
I DARED to :
-Compose a simple platformer where you only run and jump
-Use a very minmal pallete of 4-5 colors.
-used only 2 different platform objects.
-implement a secret cheat code. (“SREBMUN”)
-disregard deadlines, and make the game a day late, and
release it two days late.
-Collaborate with good friend @KhyleDean
-Use Music I didn’t make myself for a change.
Had a Blast with it, and learned lots of new stuff, and more importantly, got an idea of what I need to learn, and what I want to learn.
Thanks again for runnin the comp,and thanks for all the people participating,
always lookin to the next one.

Do Kindle Unlimited downloads affect sales rank? Definitely.
Do customers need to reach 10% of the Kindle e-book in order for sales rank to be affected? No.
All Kindle Unlimited downloads affect Amazon sales rank, even if the book isn’t read to 10%.
How do I know? I have Kindle Unlimited and recently tried this out. I downloaded two books with sales ranks above 1,000,000; these books hadn’t sold in recent months (poor books).
Although I didn’t even open the books on my Kindle, the sales ranks jumped down to the low 100,000’s. (Don’t worry. I’ll read them now.)
However, the effect wasn’t immediate; it took several hours for this to happen. (This lengthy delay is why I have now gone in and revised the finding that I posted on this yesterday.)
Authors only receive royalties when the book is read to 10%.
Kindle Unlimited customers: If you download a book through Kindle Unlimited, PLEASE read 10% of that book. Otherwise, the poor author doesn’t get paid. You could even scroll to the 10% mark. (Obviously, if the book turns out to be horrible when you open it and you feel that it doesn’t deserve a royalty, that’s different.)
This is good news: All Kindle Unlimited downloads help in some way. Even if it doesn’t get read to 10%, it still helps sales rank.
(Some books in Kindle Unlimited are losing ground with sales rank, though, simply because many other Kindle Unlimited books are being downloaded more frequently. Sales ranks have been somewhat wild ever since the inception of Kindle Unlimited.)
Imagine a Black Friday type of event just for book lovers.
You don’t have to imagine it. It’s called Read Tuesday, and it’s free: www.readtuesday.com.
Please support the Read Tuesday Thunderclap. This will help spread awareness on the morning of Read Tuesday (December 9, 2014). It’s easy to help:
- Visit http://thndr.it/1CkO2Bg.
- Click Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr and sign in.
- Customize the message. (Optional.)
- Agree to the terms. All that will happen is that the Thunderclap post about Read Tuesday will go out the morning of December 9.
- (The warning message simply means that Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr need your permission to post the Thunderclap message on December 9. This is the only post that Thunderclap will make.)

It’s no secret that this city boasts a heck of a lot of fine restaurants and exciting food options. These are some of the dishes that everyone is talking about. From dinner to dessert, here are a few foodie highlights to try this weekend. By Siobhan Wallace.
The Hot Mess, Fort Reno BBQ
New York’s ‘cue scene is improving all the time. With plates like Fort Reno’s Hot Mess popping up, it’s only bound to get better. The dish is a mason jar filled with layers of Fort Reno’s sides — one spoonful can yield macaroni and cheese, corn bread, and chunks of tender pulled pork. Topped with hot pickles, it’s a meat-y take on a yogurt parfait. No barbecue fan will want to miss this.
Salt Cod Fried Rice, Mission Chinese Food
The opening of San Francisco’s Mission Chinese on our Lower East Side was a big moment in 2012. With that opening came their Salt Cod Fried Rice, a huge plate of fried rice filled with Chinese sausage, egg, and lettuce, and salt cod, of course.
Roasted Chicken, The NoMad Restaurant
It seems nearly all the good restaurants are in hotels now — like NoMad. The hotel restaurant, of the same name, whips up a stand-out dish in their Roasted Chicken: a bird for two, slightly filled with foie gras, and roasted to a golden crisp. The dish goes for $84, but it’s being billed as one of the best in the city.
Korean Fried Chicken, Talde
The other chicken dish being raved about is Talde’s Korean Fried Chicken. The twice-fried crispiness leaves a juicy interior that will make you forget all other fried chicken. The bonus points come from the spicy sauce and cherries it’s served with.
Foie Gras Doughnut, Do or Dine
More: NYC’s 5 Best Doughnuts
Do or Dine has been churning out crazy dishes for over a year now, with one of their highlights being the star of May’s Googa Mooga: the foie gras doughnut. The fluffy beauties where pumped full of foie gras and raspberry jelly making it more of a savory meal than a sweet treat.
Earthquake In A Fishbowl, Sugar & Plumm
Sugar & Plumm has recently brought over-the-top sweet treats to the kid-friendly Upper West Side, and one dish adults will love as well is called “Earthquake In A Fishbowl.” It’s only ice creams, sauces, and slices of cake mixed into one huge fishbowl of sweetness, and it’s like nothing around town. Ingredients include heaven/hell cake, cheesecake, key lime pie, brooklyn blackout cake, butterscotch pudding, vanilla, chocolate and salted caramel ice cream and whipped cream.

- 2013 Updated Guidelines for the Motor Vehicle Rental Taxes and Fee (opens in the Laws, Rules and Decisions)
The Motor Vehicle Rental Tax ("Rental Tax") is a tax levied on the rental of motor vehicles in Virginia, whether from a rental business or from an automobile dealership or other establishment, for a period of less than 12 months. The Rental Tax has been in force for many years, and has been administered by the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) since its inception. Legislation enacted by the 2011 Session of the General Assembly transferred the administration and collection of the Rental Tax) from DMV to the Virginia Department of Taxation effective July 1, 2012.
The rentor of the vehicle collects the tax from the customer to whom the vehicle is rented at a single rate that contains three separate components:
- 4 Percent Rental Tax: This tax is imposed on the cost for rental of motor vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating or gross combined weight rating of 26,000 pounds or less.
- 4 Percent Local Tax: This component, also called "Additional Rental Tax," is levied on the rental cost for motor vehicles, regardless of weight, but does not apply to motorcycles and mobile homes.
- 2 Percent Rental Fee: This component of the Rental Tax is also imposed without regard to vehicle weight, and does not apply to motorcycles or mobile homes.
Rentors are required to file monthly returns to report taxable proceeds from vehicle rentals and pay the tax collected from their customers. Beginning with the return for the month of July 2012, which is due to be filed by August 20, 2012, these returns will be filed with the Department of Taxation.
Effective for rentals of motor vehicles occurring on and after July 1, 2013, i) charges for violations, citations, or fines and related penalties and fees; ii) delivery charges, pickup charges, recovery charges, or drop charges; iii) pass-through charges; iv) transportation charges; v) third-party service charges; and vi) refueling surcharges are excluded from "gross proceeds" for the purposes of the Motor Vehicle Rental Taxes and Fee. More information can be found in the updated Guidelines for the Motor Vehicle Rental Taxes and Fee.
The change in administration from DMV to the Department of Taxation does not affect the collection of the Rental Tax or the rate of the tax. However, rentors will use new forms for filing their Rental Tax returns. Localities will receive monthly revenue distributions for periods beginning July 1, 2012.
The following transactions are not subject to the Rental Tax, and no exemption certificates are required:
- Fee arrangements between the holder of a permit issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles for taxicab services and the driver or drivers of such taxicabs. (Source: Va. Code § 58.1-1735)
- Fee arrangements between a licensed driver training school and a student in that school, whereby the student may use a vehicle owned or leased by the school to perform a road skills test administered by the Department of Motor Vehicles. (Source: Va. Code § 58.1-1735)
- Rentals of self-contained mobile computerized axial tomography scanners to a nonprofit hospital or a cooperative hospital service organization as described in § 501(e) of the Internal Revenue Code. (Source: Va. Code § 58.1-1737)
- Rentals of self-contained mobile units designed exclusively for human diagnostic or therapeutic service to a nonprofit hospital or a cooperative hospital service organization established for research in, diagnosis of, or therapy for human ailments as described in § 501(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a nonprofit corporation as defined in § 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, established for research in, diagnosis of, or therapy for human ailments. (Source: Va. Code § 58.1-1737)
- Rentals to private nonprofit institutions of learning for the sole purpose of use in driver education instruction that is a part of such institution's curriculum for full-time students. (Source: 24 VAC 20-100-210)
- Rentals to the United States, the Commonwealth or political subdivisions of the Commonwealth for their exclusive use if the purchases are pursuant to required official purchase orders to be paid for out of public funds. A United States government credit card or a Commonwealth of Virginia credit card may also be used if the credit of the federal or state government is bound and billings are sent directly to and paid by the government. (Source: Va. Code § 58.1-1737)
- Rentals to any person for the purpose of re-rental. The person who will be re-renting the vehicle must have a valid rental certificate of registration in order for a transaction to qualify for this exemption and the rentor must keep adequate documentation of such certificate of registration.
No other transactions are specifically exempt from the Rental Tax.

2K's UK Twitter account has tweeted out a very mysterious BioShock-related image.
The image is an in-game advertisement for Eve's Garden, an "exotic dancing venue" (ha) from Fort Frolic in the original BioShock. It was tweeted out twice by the account, accompanied by the teases "discuss" and "Oooo, what COULD this mean?!"
Oooo, what COULD this mean?! pic.twitter.com/P93Nl643SU
— 2K United Kingdom (@2KInternational) July 24, 2014
Interestingly, nothing of the sort has been tweeted out from 2K's general account, suggesting that whatever is in the works could be a regional promotion.
Otherwise, we don't really have any other big theories here. BioShock Vita is basically a lost cause at this point, and while we know that 2K is still exploring the BioShock universe since Irrational disbanded, we've heard no rumblings since the publisher assured us the franchise wasn't dead back in February.
Sound out on your hopes and dreams for the future of BioShock below.

A productive outdoor herb garden is not only possible but is a great addition to any survival garden! Not only are herbs a tasty additive to the meals you prepare for yourself and your family, they also possess many medicinal properties that I have found are beneficial for many ailments such as stomach upset, skin conditions such as psoriasis, muscle aches, joint inflammation – and MUCH MORE!
Beginner’s Guide To Growing Herbs Outdoors
Last gardening season I wrote 5 Herbs for Your Survival Garden. In this article, I shared detailed information on 5 of the most popular herbs that grace almost every survival garden you’ll ever come across. If you love basil, cilantro, lemon balm, oregano, and/or parsley – then check out my previous article on these 5 extremely versatile herbs!
If you are new to survival gardening and aren’t quite sure where to start with your outdoor herb garden, not to worry. We can help!
First, let’s go over some basic herb care and other information to better understand the process of an outdoor herb garden a little better. Did you know?
- Herbs are extremely easy to care for! Most herbs only require just a few hours of sunshine per day, well draining soil, and a little compost.
- Herbs love to grow in the ground. Some herbs have been known to reach heights and/or widths of 4-6 feet when planted in the ground! However, if you are limited on space, then check out my article Tips for Growing Food in Small Spaces. Indoor Herb Gardening is also another great option as well.
- As I said before, herbs are extremely easy to care for but, proper location is key. Most herbs like full sun. However, if the regular summer temperatures in your location exceed 90 degrees fahrenheit on a regular basis Click to see the original article

I don’t know whether I should be amused or be rolling on the floor laughing. You know why? It’s this “you need to be in the Philippines to be able to do something that counts”. You see, if I were to take this twisted logic at face value – this would mean that sa dinami dami ng Pinoys who are in the Pinas – you would have thought – they have the solution because they are already there. If we have to go by results of the solutions of the people who are already in the Philippines – Asia’s Laggard, Most Corrupt Country in the ASEAN, Most Dangerous Country for Journalists, Nation of Servants – I’d say the solutions of da pinoys in da pinas aren’t solutions – not when you are doing the same thing and expecting different results. In Cebuano this is referred to as Tabang (help) as in, Tabang Duot (help push.. over the cliff). So much so, that when you come face to face with another “solution” – it makes you wonder, what will they screw up next?
Take for example this piece, by a bright guy:
But the 21st century version fails to give the solution. The AntiPinoy falls on its heels as your usual AntiPinoy that needs to be AntiPinoyed!
Dr Rizal himself gives us the true AntiPinoy solution. Go back home!
Dr Rizal also gives us the sterling example of how to really succeed. Get shot at the Luneta!
Of course no one can get shot in the Luneta while overseas. You can get virtually executed, but that doesn’t count.
Sipping coffee on a terrace in Sydney, New York, London or wherever also while nice, doesn’t count. The best place to be as an AntiPinoy is in the Philippines and nowhere else. The best place to be an AntiPinoy is in a coffee shop in Manila or Baguio or Tuguegararao or Cebu or Iloilo….
In other places you will be a second class AntiPinoy citizen with an adopted country passport and trying to make it in the “mainstream”.
BTW. There is another AntiPinoy I admire. His was the one who gave us that soundbite on “running a government like hell by AntiPinoys”!
What can be gleamed from Rizal – is this – he was the first Antipinoy -and La Solidaridad might as well have been Antipinoy.com 😛 His works were mis-understood, and even the local elite connived to have Jose Rizal shot! Much like the Biblical story of the Jews. Let’s get a few things straightened out.
Our college teachers portrayed Rizal as a rebel against Spain – when in fact, he wasn’t.
Rizal wanted the Philppines to become a province of Spain like Andalusia, Catalonia, Cordova, etc. Originally, Filipino nationalism did not even seek independence for the Philippines but rather its complete cultural assimilation and total political integration into Spain. The goal was equal representation with “the other parts of Spain” in the Cortes at Madrid. To these Filipino nationalists, Filipinos were just eastern Spaniards, as Majorcans were western” Spaniards, as Andalusians were southern” Spaniards.
Only when this aspiration failed to be realized did the objective of Filipino nationalists shift to political independence – but not to decolonize. If they could not be an integral part of Spain, then the Philippines would constitute a second Spain – one which would complete the hispanization of the islands.
Essentially, Noli and Fili were novels that were making the case for assimilation. And as you mentioned – painted the consequences if the assimilation did not take place.
However, the most articulate deconstruction of the Noli and Fili that I have seen is a comment from a clear thinking street Philosopher – I’ll quote from my email exchanges with JR2, he says:
Most people think of Rizal’s novels as being “anti-Spanish” or “revolutionary and subversive”, etc…
Noli Me Tangere was Rizal’s “GET REAL, Philippines! “ NOVEL.
Those of us who read it in High School as part of Filipino class, ended up getting indoctrinated in it being a revolutionary book that exposed the Spaniards as being evil, etc… (and sometimes, teachers even presented El Filibusterismo’ s revolutionary movements described in the story as showing “the only way to remedy the situation that the Spaniards caused.”)
But the fact is that Noli Me Tangere (it’s Latin, not Spanish, so pronounce it as “TAN-jere, not TANG-he-re” taken from John Chapter 20 – when Mary Magdalene wanted to touch the resurrected Jesus and he said “Touch me not…”) was an exposé on the dysfunctionality of Pinoy culture at the time (nothing different from what’s going on now) and showed partly how it was that certain “ultra-dogmatic” sectors of society (the friars, being one such group) being partly responsible for maintaining such a status quo.
If we read the English and the Spanish (original) versions in their entirety, and not the textbook Tagalog version, we end up reading all the descriptive narratives in the original text that talk about how ordinary Pinoys did the whole “bahala na routine” with respect to tending their homes and maintaining structures and roads. In many of the Chapter intros, Rizal goes into details as far as painting a picture of what the Philippines looked like at the time and he puts A WHOLE LOT OF THE BLAME on the Pinoys themselves. In other words, when reading the details in “Noli”, we find Rizal actually saying that a whole lot of the lousiness, mediocrity, and “puede na yan”-ism going on was a fault of the local Filipinos themselves.
(The full unabriged text even says that the only way one gets to see that there’s something wrong is only when one travels abroad – something that resonates with many of us Get Realists who are based abroad)
In fact, his own character wasn’t necessarily meant to reflect him (Rizal’s “non-Indio” ancestry was largely Chinese), but in the opening chapters, he describes Juan Crisóstomo Ibarra as being of Basque Spanish ancestry (Ibarra being taken from “Eibarramendi” – a very Euskadi [Basque] name), his Great-grandfather being a Peninsular.
He also made sure to somehow exonerate the culpability of the SECULAR Spanish colonial officials, one of the good guys being the Guardia Civil lieutenant Guevara.
The main idea was to show that most Pinoys back then (as they are now) were TONTOWS who didn’t seek knowledge on their own. And that’s why one of the main ideas in the novel was the improved EDUCATION of the natives – something we have in our current struggle: Enlightening the Elites.
All throughout “Noli Me Tangere” – found especially in the detailed introductions of many chapters, however, Rizal paints a picture of almost contagious, highly prevalent and pervasive TONTOWNESS of the locals – both RICH and POOR, Indio and Mestizo, in terms of easily being manipulated into doing the wrong thing, as well as the numerous cases of unfair FALSE WITNESS borne against innocent people (among whom was his father who died unfairly imprisoned, and later in the story, against him)
In many ways, the idea seems to reverberate with our group today… “Noli” somehow presented SECULAR Spaniards/Europeans based in the Philippines, Filipinos who’ve had the chance to live ABROAD, as well as local Filipinos eager to learn more about and from the world outside of the Archipelago, AS BEING THE ENLIGHTENED PEOPLE (or at least “wanting to become enlightened people”) in the novel, and made sure to present them as being the reason for hope.
In many ways, the Novel appears to have been meant to APPEAL to secular and liberal Spanish government officials to try to do what they could to better integrate the Philippines into the Spanish government’s structure to give it the proper attention it needed in order to combat the pervasive DYSFUNCTIONALITY of Pinoy society. It also showed the factions among the elites in the small town of San Diego, which is not too different from the elite factions fighting amongst themselves today.
And some of the “subversive characters” in the Novel were meant to suggest that if Spain failed to help EDUCATE (or rather “Enlighten”) the key players in the Philippines, these people would end up “taking matters into their own hands and revolting against Spain.”
In short, in contrast to how most of our Filipino teachers in High School misrepresented the contents of Noli Me Tangere as being anti-Spain, reading the full, unabridged version (esp. in Spanish or English) reveals that the novel’s main target of indictment WERE THE NATIVE and LOCAL FILIPINOS THEMSELVES!
The Sequel to Noli, “El Filibusterismo” was meant to be a “what if” doomsday scenario, attempting to tell the local Spanish authorities “that if you fail to help in enlightening the local elites, fail in educating the locals, and continue to tolerate the mediocrity of the local Filipinos, and allow the dogmatic religious authorities to just keep on brainwashing the masses with medievalist ideas, then it will cause some people to turn rogue and go against you, and worse, it may even turn good “pro-Spanish” people into violent “anti-Spanish” ones.”
The story of Simoun was actually to show that this man who had formerly been the Enlightened Educator Juan Crisóstomo Ibarra turned into a violent ROGUE who was bent on revenge and pure unscrupulous self-interest, at the expense of other people.
(Simoun epitomizes the people who become NPA’s/ABU SAYYAFS and other troublemakers in the Philippines, starting off with supposedly very noble intentions, but then ending up having very violent and even somewhat selfish activities)
The subliminal message was “If Spain doesn’t help in fixing the Philippines, even good people with good intentions of integrating the Philippines within the Spanish State, would end up going rogue.”
Towards the end of the novel, when Simoun lies dying, he converses with Padre Florentino and in the end, Simoun is told that while he may have thought he had good intentions for the “Greater Good” in mounting his revolution, Padre Florentino says that he ended up doing things that were more for personal gain, revenge, and basically interests that had nothing to do with the Greater Good, to which Simoun finally agrees just before he dies.
In essence, I do not think that “El Filibusterismo” was meant by Rizal to be a “LET’S DO THIS FOR REAL” kind of Novel, one that would say “follow my lead” or “follow the examples depicted in this story”, but rather it was a wake up call to everyone in Philippine Society, including the Spanish Authorities that:
For the Locals (Insulares, Indios, and Mestizos): If we don’t improve ourselves, things will be chaotic and difficult for everyone
For the Spanish Authorities: If you don’t integrate the Philippines into Spain and educate the natives properly, many people will wrongly advocate violent revolution, and even some of the people who would ideally be on the Spanish side will end up joining the violent side, resulting in loss of life and a lot of unscrupulous scheming and behavior.
El Filibusterismo, the title, roughly translates into “ROGUE BEHAVIOR” or “Turning Rogue” (“Roguism”) and looking at the story from that perspective, it’s very clear that Rizal was a GET REALIST whose works were unfortunately misinterpreted by far too many tontows. Seen from that perspective, “NOLI” talked about what’s wrong with the Philippines, what’s wrong with the Pinoy natives who form the majority and what’s wrong with the different elite factions that end up keeping the Phils rotten, while “FILI” talked about what WOULD HAPPEN if the Philippines was allowed to just continue getting more rotten without any efforts to remedy the situation whatsoever.
(In a way, El Filibusterismo’ s subliminal message was “we should never allow the dysfunctionalities and mediocrity in Pinoy Society to get so bad as to allow things to come to such a chaotic and explosively violent result where absolutely no one emerges as the winner and everyone loses)
Incidentally, the old English version of the title “NOLI ME TANGERE” was “The Social Cancer” and that’s exactly how I would describe what TONTOWISM and all the dysfunctionalities that comprises it is all about.
Unfortunately, Jose Rizal had not seen “The Matrix” yet, and he would have realized that he has to remain in the wilderness as a precaution against the ability of the unplugged people he wants to save from turning on him. Mi Ultimo Adios, is a swan song of this strategic blunder on Rizal’s part.For short – why in the world will you go home when certain death awaits you? Why will you allow the forces of tyranny to swindle you into shutting your voice? You are a bigger idiot if you fall for that line. As my old folks used to say back then in the 80s say “there is no need for dead heroes. sure thing, they will rally for what – a week or two – then what next? all your are is a tombstone.”
Exactly, a living body that can talk, walk, deliver the message, articulate a message, get to live and implement the change you have been aspiring for – that’s the call of the times. We’ve had enough of dead “heroes” – lots of them are lying around – “heroes” all of them – they are dead, they are silenced. We need live thinking bodies – not zombies who just say… noy noy noy noy… di nag-iisip. Napaka abnoy, naman nyan.
False bravado will have you going home in a bullet proof vest armed with a coterie of media. You get shot – and even today, no one can IDENTIFY who shot you? Your dead! You can’t “fiscalize” anymore. Sure it stirred millions… to do what? To be free to act as idiots. All that life so that millions can act like idiots. Looking back into history – Aguinaldo ordering the execution of Bonifacio – I dunno – seems like a waste to me – these idiots weren’t really that worth dying for – I figured that out since, I was 19 years old. I have never turned to look back since then. Until, now.
The Diaspora as Witnessing Life Outside the Box
Geographically, there are types of Pinoys – Living In the Philippines, Lived Outside the Philippines and Living In the Philippines Again AFTER Living Outside the Philippines – and the variations in between.
It is kinda silly to have Pinoys who are working and living overseas and who have quite personally fulfilling careers, who keep the local economy afloat, to come back to a dysfunctional environment, when they can advocate for the same changes – without the risk of physical harm.
Consider it as a smarter alternative to staying in the Philippines and surrounding oneself with a private army – for one I find it – KSP, Kulang sa Pansin; two – I find it too primitive; three – I love my privacy and independence too much to surround myself with gun-toting guards who can snitch on my latest kinkiest boinking escapade – ika nga Live to fight (and f*ck) another day! 🙂
Pinoys in da pinas complain that, hey you are not here, therefore you have no right to speak.
Hello, I still carry a Filipino passport – I have the right to speak just like anyone else.You have not done anything.
Really, you are living off on my remittances, I am keepying you afloat, and I put up not just with your shit but other people’s shit – you have something to shit when you wake up in the morning – with the shit that I fed you last night and I have not done anything, right. My lordie lordie looorrrddd – Lotsa shit.
Consider this, what my remittances do for you, kabayan – I am giving you, kabayan, the means to address Maslow’s lower needs heirarchy – food, clothing, shelter – so that you may able to address the higher heirarchy – self fulfillment, legacy. In case you missed that, no worries, I know you would! But next time you try that again – I’ll make it as real as it gets – sasampalin kita ng perang pinaghirapan ko, na nilustay mo, sa mga katarantaduhan mo – sabong, sugal, alak, popkpok, party, gimik, palabas, kayabangan.
Having attended to your basic needs, all we can muster is to choose a lazy oaf to become president? WTF? Are we out of our minds? We deserve better! Someone who can reshape the economy so we don’t have to haul our ass overseas! And if we don’t put a fox in the chicken coop – we’ll reinstate a thieving bozo? WTF??? Did someone just let loose a retrovirus that dumbs Filipinos down – from diploma mill to ivory tower – HELLO…. Snap… as in snap out of the idiocy.
Guess what, that’s the beauty of being able to step outside the box – not just the logical box, but the physical box called the Philippines, see what everyone else is doing “RIGHT” – for instance, e-governance. Where I live, I can pay my taxes, renew my business license, renew my drivers license, in 30 min tops – online. In contrast, The Philippines has been trumpetting its students who win programming contests, as an ideal BPO site, pinoy programmers are the best – and yet, getting to e-file in the Philippines is like pulling teeth. Getting a drivers license means arming yourself with lagay, filing your taxes means more lagay, traffic penalties are assessed based on what you drive and the clothes you wear. So, when a Filipino who has seen life outside the box sees it, he will naturally state that there is a better way of doing things.
Da Pinoy in the box reaction will be typical, who are you to tell us how to live a better life – then he goes to say.. hirap na nga ng buhay, dadagdagan mo pa ng angal mo, tulungan mo akong maghugas ng plato dito.
Yun nga eh, bibigyan na sana kita ng automatic dishwasher, kaso gusto mo pa ring maghugas – eh di maghugas ka at manigas ka dyan, tang’na mo, bobo. Talagang walang gamot ang katangahan.
So, for all those who wanna engage in false bravado – pakamatay mo ug solo, go ahead, that’s good mababawasan ang istupido sa mundo.
I’d rather live to ensure a sustained campaign and nurture it to success – Ilara ta tits, butiti kang dako, Pildi ang maglagot – Live to fight and die another day. My name is Bong… James Bong… LOL
Solutions.. solutions… solutions.
Any one knows the proverbial “wheezing over the head” – yup, it’s the blind spot. So, I will make this as idiot-proof as I can.
Problem: Lack of Awareness on Pinoy Dysfunction
Solution: Launch Campaign to Bring Awareness to Pinoy Dysfunction
Budget: $4.95/month – hosting; $10-domain registration; $7
Other resources required:
* Webmaster (prevailing rate – $25/hr): Expense: pro-bono
* Authors (prevailing rate – $25/hr): Expense: pro-bono
Objectively Verifiable Indicator: Page Views, Audience Reached, Alexa rankings, sitemeter
Expected Output: More Filipinos aware of self-limiting behavior. More Filipinos aware of behavior that needs to be re-examined, and if needed, reject the behavior. More Filipinos not opting for Noynoy Aquino.
Note that there is still Stages 2,3, and 4 – all of which have counterparts in the A-I-D-A model – Awareness-Interest-Desire-Action. But as to the details – as my colleague benign0 would quip – keep on guessing, tough luck.
Other solutions: Thus far, I’ve been experimenting with a business model that has shown a viable process. It is a lean supply chain that starts from coffee beans in cat poo found in conflict-ridden Cotabato to the swankiest coffee shoppes in Miami to the tune of $35-$50 PER CUP! Nope this ain’t your Starbucks $5 per cup. Grassroots community organizing and micro-entrepreneurship mainstreaming into global trade as a means of bypassing the local oligarchs! And it all started with.. a crazy idea. Before you know it, I’ll have more products (fruits, oils, moringa capsules, bayabas capsules, mangosteen caplets, bee pollen) from more grassroots communities, bypassing the oligarch middlemen, and going straight into the global market. But, I can’t get to Stage 4, unless I pass Stage 1.
Strategic thinking – try it, nang di tayo nagmumukhang LUKARET!
Generating awareness is a solution in itself. Awareness serves to “prep”, to pump-prime, to get everyone on the same page, to have a shared understanding. And like in any truly democratic society composed of free and thinking individuals – you are free to pitch in or withhold your participation. Simple as that. No rocket science.
You can do this – but only if you want to. As for me, with or without you, am doing it.

n. gar·goyle [gär-"goil] Middle English gargoyl,
from Middle French gargouille; akin to Middle French gargouiller
and from the same root word from which we derive gurgle, gullet,
gully, gulp, gurgitation. Date: 13th century.
A spout usually carved in the shape of a human, animal or demon,
and connected to a gutter for throwing rain water from the roof
of a building; although later examples - particularly in the Gothic
Revival of the 19th century - served as merely decoration and
served no earthly function. Today, they are associated with close
cousins the grotesques, and Green
gargoyle often makes his perch
On a cathedral or a church
Where, mid eclesiastic style
He smiles an early Gothic smile.
As early as the sixth century, Pope Gregory was instructing missionaries
to respect the rituals of pagan worship. Wisely, the Church accepted
these 'heathen' practices by incorporating them into the rituals
of the Church (and not for nothing did Christmas later quietly
replace the pagan Winter Solstice celebration.)
the 12th century, however, the venerable St. Bernard of Clairvaux
was ranting against the origins of the weird and irreverent carvings
in his cloister. This was at a moment of time when The
Catholic Church was now entrenched throughout the known world:
are these fantastic monsters doing in the cloisters under the
very eyes of the brothers as they read? What is the meaning
of these unclean monkeys, strange savage lions and monsters?
To what purpose are here placed these creatures, half beast,
Bernard, the grand master of organization who established the
austere Cisterian order, was a stickler for dogma : What did monsters
have to do with Christ dying for our sins? Why did stonecarvers
continue to insist on this bizarre decoration? In his diatribe
he finally posed the eternal question of administers everywhere:
...and what are they costing me?
century later, gargoyles finally became the natural progeny of
the grotesques St. Bernard railed against.
only did they not go away, but those pagan grotesques were now
serving as a primitive form of machinery: hollowed out then lined
with lead, they were dubbed 'gargoyles' for the noise made as
they violently spit rain water away from ledges and outcroppings.
Where is it? No one knows for sure, but an architectural historian
might find it sculking on a relatively recent Neo-Gothic building.
During the Victorian era, the Gothic
Revival was a phenomenon in England that saw the reemergence
of gables, parapets and - yes, real working gargoyles - that graced
commercial stone buildings of the 19th century. It truly was the
gargoyle's last hurrah, but the mania for the little beasties
never really disappeared.
National Cathedral, completed in the late 20th century,
have featured them; and the Cathedral
of St. John the Divine in New York which has yet to
be completed. There's hope for yet another revival.
then, gargoyles and grotesques (wherever they have managed to
survive) continue to fire our imaginations as they watch over
us in cities throughout the world.
it turns out, it may be our turn to watch over them.

Is It Wise for an Athlete to Test the Free-Agent Market? — Sports Survey of the Day
As a professional athlete approaches free agency, he has two choices: sign a contract with his current team, or wait to offer his services to the highest bidder. Most choose the latter. Is this smart?
In the eyes of the athlete, of course this is a good move. He only has so many chances to ink a big deal, so whoever makes the best offer usually wins out, regardless of whether that offer comes from the player’s original (or long-term) team. Wes Welker, for example, has been a big part of the New England Patriots since 2007; he says he will test the free agent market.
To fans, it hurts to see a player they’ve rooted for for years suddenly depart for another team. And sometimes, the process turns ugly. Dwight Howard left a sour taste in many NBA fans’ mouths after his public battle with Orlando ended with his being traded to the Lakers. And how can we forget about LeBron James and “The Decision”?

Six months after four of its members broke away to form a new company, The Ingram Group is trying to regain steam. The 23-year-old Nashville public affairs firm has expanded its leadership ranks and service scope, moves it hopes will "restore" the firm to prominence.
Within the firm's established staff, Jeff Diamond, the former Tennessee Titans President who most recently served as senior consultant, is now chairman and CEO; and Marcille Durham, formerly senior consultant and government relations coordinator, is now chief operating officer and senior vice president for government relations.
The group was formerly led by David Jarrard, who was president when he left the company in January with Ingram employees Kevin Phillips, Molly Cate and Anne Hancock to form the health care public relations firm Jarrard Phillips Cate & Hancock Inc.
Diamond and Durham have been leading the firm since the split.
Additionally, the group has hired Thad Huguley, chief of staff to U.S. Rep. Marion Berry of Arkansas. Huguley been brought on as senior manager for federal relations, charged with developing a full-service federal lobbying program and building a regional consulting and lobbying network.
"Thad brings that unique perspective of having worked in D.C. and having a chance to really create a national presence for our group," says Diamond. "We wanted to take advantage of that and expand. We've always been very active on the local and state level, and we're expanding to do more federal work now."
Overall, Diamond says these changes will re-establish the role of the public affairs firm as a "go-to" company in Nashville and beyond.
"We're getting back to our roots ... a strategic consulting group that is the go-to firm in terms of problem solving and those types of things," says Diamond. "We're getting back to the core foundation that Tom Ingram founded the firm on."
The group, started in 1982 by Ingram, current chief of staff to U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander, specializes in public affairs campaigns in the governmental, environmental and sports industries.
Staffers Jack Diller, Tommy Burnett and Greer Tidwell continue in their current positions, and Lindsay Craig, former campaign director for Tennessee Sen. Jamie Woodson, has been named an affiliate for campaign strategies.

Do you live in the challenging climate of the UAE? Do you find it difficult to keep your villa green and clean? Does you water bill cost you too much because you water your natural grass? Do you want to have a green natural-looking space without all the difficulties of natural grass maintenance?
ZK Artificial Grass is the answer. ZK Artificial Grass provides high quality artificial grass with environmentally friendly materials that are also UV protected from the sun’s rays.
Why ZK Artificial Grass?
Artificial grass/artificial turf will will do away with many problems that people living in the Gulf (United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman…) face when they try to increase greenery in their environments. These challenges include the need to use a lot of water, which can be expensive, the need to constantly maintain grass if you opt for natural grass, weeds growing in your lawn, a big growth in bugs and insects, etc.
Benefits of Artificial Grass:
A Note of Health
According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG) toxic pesticides and fertilizers chemicals rampant in the society are extremely harmful to the human body and mind. When using typical natural grass in the UAE, one is bound to end up using some of these fertilizers and chemical pesticides in order for the natural grass to grow well in the UAE’s challenging environment. On the other hand, using artificial grass/artificial turf from ZK Artificial Grass Dubai completely eliminates any need for such chemicals. You will end up with better greenery without chemicals, maintenance, bugs, and it will all end up costing lesser in the end.

An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the title of Dolin’s book. The book is called “A Guide to Private Schools: The Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland Edition.” The story has been updated to reflect the correct title.
Ann Dolin, the president and founder of Educational Connections, a tutoring service in Northern Virginia, is turning her more than 20 years of experience in education into a guide to private schools in the Washington area. Dolin’s book, “A Guide to Private Schools: The Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland Edition,” will be published later this fall.
Dolin has two sons, ages 15 and 11. One attends private school and the other goes to public school. She taught in Fairfax County for six years and has been in the private tutoring business since 1998.
I recently spoke with Ann by phone about the book and what parents should look for when choosing a school for their child. Here are edited excerpts of that conversation.
Tell me more about the book.
The book is divided into three main sections. The first section is all about picking a school that might work for your child and applying. It goes from step one, starting in September when you are visiting a lot of different schools, and goes over what to look for that might match your student’s learning style, the application process, tours, shadow visits and making the decision. The next part of the book, which is my favorite part, is advice from admissions directors, parents who have gone through the process and students. The last part is profiles of about 100 schools in the area, everything from elementary schools to high schools. The profiles include information about curriculum, student life, sports, after-school clubs, the type of teaching methodology and tuition. The beginning of the book has a whole section on financial aid and a section on private vs. public schools, because many families in our area want to consider the public option.
Why is this process overwhelming for parents?
Oftentimes they are not sure where to start. They’ve heard the names of schools but they don’t know if a school is a good match for their child. They go by reputation, by what other people have told them, they read blogs. That’s not a good way of getting information. Many times parents are very emotional with the decision. They often have schools on their list that aren’t necessarily appropriate for the child. Or there are schools with very lofty admission standards that are hard to get into, so parents will say ‘That must be the best school.’ But it’s not necessarily the case for their child.
What should parents be looking at to find the best fit?
You can read a lot on school Web sites and get mailers. But you have to get a feel for the school’s culture by going on tours and to open houses. A parent’s intuition is a very good guide. You also need to look at teaching style. Some schools are very traditional, very lecture-based, where it’s teacher-centered. If your student is bored easily and needs something more hands-on, a more student-centered style of instruction, that student may not fit in the box for a more traditional school.
I also have parents look at the chance of being accepted. If the school is looking for high standardized test scores and a report card with all A’s, if your child has mediocre test scores and A’s and B’s, it’s going to be tough. A lot of parents only have highly competitive schools on their list because they are going on reputation. You want to have options.
Does the book offer rankings or opinions on the schools?
No. It’s all objective information. It’s pretty fact-based in terms of the schools’ teaching methods and focus.
What do you want parents to take away from your book?
I’m hoping that parents cast a wider net in that they look at lots of different schools they may not have thought about before. Often the school they’re thinking about for their child may not be the best fit, so it’s always a good idea to explore lots of options. Parents come in with preconceived notions about their child and when they’re willing to explore other options and think about what’s best for the child and not about where they would want to go, it’s easier to make a better match.

Although a small country, Moldova has been of interest to U.S. policymakers due to its position between NATO and EU member Romania and strategic Ukraine. In addition, some experts have expressed concern about Russian efforts to extend its hegemony over Moldova through various methods, including a troop presence, manipulation of Moldova's relationship with its breakaway Transnistria region, and energy supplies and other economic links. Moldova's political and economic weakness has made it a source of organized criminal activity of concern to U.S. policymakers, including trafficking in persons.
From 2009 until March 2013, Moldova was governed by the Alliance for European Integration, a coalition of center-right parties. The government claimed to be focused on dismantling the country's Communist legacy and building a state ruled by law. However, conflicts with the Communist opposition and tensions within the coalition have slowed reform efforts. The accidental killing of a businessman in December 2012 and an attempted cover-up by the Prosecutor General touched off open conflict among the AEI parties, and the government collapsed in March. A new government comprising most of the members of the old AEI was approved by parliament at the end of May.
Moldova is Europe's poorest country, according to the World Bank. Remittances from Moldovans working abroad amounted to 22% of the country's Gross Domestic Product in 2010. The global financial crisis has had a negative impact on Moldova. Moldova's currency weakened and remittances dropped, as Moldovan emigrants lost jobs in other hard-hit countries. Moldova's GDP dropped by 7.3% in 2009, rebounded by 6.9% in 2010 and 6.5% in 2011, only to drop by 0.8% in 2012, due to the Eurozone crisis.

SIERRA MADRE (AP) — A black bear has attacked and injured a 53-year-old man in the San Gabriel Mountains east of Los Angeles.
California Department of Fish and Wildlife spokesman Andrew Hughan says the man encountered a bear on a trail at 10:45 a.m. Monday and as they eyed each other a second bear came out of nowhere and attacked him.
Hughan says the man walked out of the wilderness on his own and was taken to Methodist Hospital in Arcadia for treatment of non-life-threatening cuts, scratches and possible puncture wounds.
The attack occurred in the Angeles National Forest, 2 miles north of the city of Sierra Madre's Bailey Canyon Wilderness Park.
Fish and Wildlife will try to locate the bear, and if it's captured it will be destroyed under department policy.

Pfizer, Moderna testing COVID-19 vaccines against new UK strain
Here’s how many Americans say they will get COVID vaccine
Vatican: OK to get virus vaccines using abortion cell lines
New tool tells you when you may be able to get COVID-19 vaccine
Ilhan Omar slams lawmakers like AOC for ‘shameful’ COVID vaccination
Pfizer and Moderna, the two companies whose COVID-19 vaccines have been rolled out in the US, are testing their jabs to see if they are effective against the new strain spreading across the UK and other countries, according to a report.
“Based on the data to date, we expect that the Moderna vaccine-induced immunity would be protective against the variants recently described in the UK,” Moderna said in a statement, CNN reported.
“We will be performing additional tests in the coming weeks to confirm this expectation,” it added.
Pfizer said it is “generating data” on how well blood samples from people immunized with its shot “may be able to neutralize the new strain from the UK,” according to the network.
Both companies said they’ve found that their vaccines worked against other variations of the novel coronavirus.
Some researchers who are studying the genome of the UK strain told CNN they have concerns that this variant’s mutations could possibly reduce the effectiveness of the vaccines.
“You could imagine some modest hit in vaccine efficacy, which wouldn’t be good, but I don’t think it would break the vaccine,” Trevor Bedford, an associate professor in the vaccine and infectious disease division of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, told the outlet.

Travelling alone for the first time can be daunting. There’s so many fears about safety, getting lost, and not being able to speak the language. And with so many places to go, it can become overwhelming trying to choose the best place to go it alone.
Having just finished a wonderful trip to Liechtenstein it struck me as the perfect place to travel solo if you’ve never done it before. Here’s some reasons why:
It’s really safe
Not only does it feel safe, it actually is safe. With one of the lowest crime rates in the world, you can completely relax whilst walking around, chatting to locals and asking for help with directions. This is a place that still has honesty boxes everywhere, you can jump on and off the buses without anyone checking your ticket, and there’s a tiny public library where you can help yourself to books and just promise you’ll return them later. It’s literally just a little cupboard full of books that opens into the street.
Liechtenstein is a teenie-tiny country with only a handful of towns. In fact, it’s so small that when I popped into the bathroom on the train I missed my stop and accidentally ended up in Austria! Even the capital city Vaduz is really just a big village. So you can cover the entire country in just a few days. It’s perfect for a bite size travel experience and a good way to dip your toes into solo travel before taking the plunge for a longer time.
It’s easy to travel around
There are regular and easy to use buses that connect all the towns and run pretty regularly. And there’s a train service that crosses the whole country from Switzerland to Austria, although that constitutes only three stops so buses are much more practical. If you buy a multi-day tourist card you can just hop on and off the buses as you please. As an added bonus, you get to pass through a village called ‘Pinnochio’ and wait at some of the prettiest bus stops in the world!
You can get by with English
Although the official language is German there are plenty of people who speak enough English to make you feel comfortable. It’s a good place to try out a foreign language without ever panicking that you’re completely out of your depth. All the signs, museum information and menus are in German but there’s usually someone around who speaks enough English to help.
Everywhere you go there’s the gorgeous backdrop of the Alps. And when the sun sets you can swoon over the dramatic silhouette of tall peaks against a burning sky. In Malbun a highlight is taking the chairlift up into the mountains for stunning views, while in every village pretty little churches dot the landscape. It makes for lovely photos and you can easily while away the time just taking in the country’s scenery.
There’s hardly any tourists
Lichtenstein is not only the 6th smallest country in the world, but it’s also one of the least visited. So you can get a feel for local life without having to compete with hundreds of other people. You can really get a sense of being somewhere authentic and unspoiled without feeling overwhelmed. Most of the time I was the only one in the museums. And sometimes I would stumble upon a quaint church and just let myself in. There was no one anywhere. I had the place completely to myself.
There’s something for everyone
For outdoors enthusiasts, Liechtenstein is a paradise. There’s hiking and cycling galore plus a cross-country archery course. And theres a public swimming pool in every village. If you like art, there’s sculptures all around the capital Vaduz and a surprisingly good quality modern art gallery. If you like cute houses & churches there’s plenty scattered around. If you like quirky stuff you can go llama trekking or stay in a teepee. And if you like wine, there’s a vineyard owned by the Prince himself where you can do wine tasting and wander through the vineyards.
Know before you go
The only downside is that Lichtenstein is expensive. But you can save money by doing a little planning and preparation before you go. You can also visit as a day trip from Austria or Switzerland so keep that in mind if you’re on a budget.

Our Artisanal Hand-Stitched Tea Bags
In ancient traditions around the world, a freshly brewed pot filled with whole tea leaves is revered as the richest in character. Inspired by this legacy, Mighty Leaf specially created the silken Tea Pouch filled with the world’s finest whole tea leaves, herbs, fruits and flavor. No longer was it necessary to brew a pot of tea and use a strainer or an infuser to experience whole leaf tea the way it's enjoyed in tea gardens around the world!
Each portion of whole leaf tea is precisely measured and carefully wrapped in one of our signature, hand-stitched tea pouches. These large, silken tea bags showcase the distinctive beauty and unique character of our bestselling blends. They give the tea leaves room to unfurl as they steep, allowing the nuanced flavors to fully infuse for the ideal tea experience.
Besides the beautiful leaves you’ll notice that our sachets have a lot of tea inside. Typically our pouches contain about two and a half grams of tea, which allows you to brew a large cup of tea (between 12oz to 14oz).
Each tea bag is hand stitched with 100% unbleached cotton. The silken material is made from polylactic acid (PLA), which is derived from corn starch. The pouches are biodegradable and can be composted in an industrial composter.
UNBLEACHED COTTON - Each tea bag is stitched with 100% unbleached cotton using a proprietary process
SPACE TO UNFURL – Adequate space is given for the tea leaves to unfurl, culminating in a richer, more full-bodied cup..
NO GLUE OR STAPLES – Unlike other brands, we do not use staples or glue to seal our pouches.
WHOLE LEAVES, HERBS & SPICES - We use the highest quality whole leaf tea, not “tea dust” or C-T-C found in paper bag teas.
COMMERCIALLY COMPOSTABLE1 – Tea pouches™ are crafted of 100% polyactic corn based commercially compostable material and 100% biodegradable. In 2006, we were awarded “Best New Product Packaging” for our pouches from SCAA.
BREW TIME – Our labels indicate brew time for each blend.
1For more information on what commercial compostability means, see our FAQs.

Plea Hearing for Man Accused of Threatening to Kill Neighbor With Knife Continued
The hearing for 58-year-old Douglas Eugene Dunkle, of Dunmore, Pa., scheduled for Wednesday, November 4, was continued and is scheduled to resume at 2:00 p.m. on November 18.
Dunkle faces the following charges:
– Burglary – Overnight Accommodations; Person Present, Felony 1
– Terroristic Threats With Intent To Terrorize Another, Misdemeanor 1
– Simple Assault, Misdemeanor 2 (two counts)
– Harassment – Subject Other to Physical Contact, Summary
He is currently free on $10,000.00 monetary bail.
The charges stem from an incident that occurred in Clarion Borough on May 24.
Details of the case:
According to a criminal complaint, around 11:23 p.m. on Sunday, May 24, Clarion Borough Police were dispatched to a report of an assault at an apartment on Leatherwood Drive. The victim reported a balding white male wearing dark pants with no shirt had come into his residence with a knife and had assaulted him. The victim also told police that he was in his back bedroom and had grabbed a machete for his own protection.
At the scene, police made contact with a man, later identified as Douglas Eugene Dunkle, who matched the description provided by the victim. Dunkle was found outside the victim’s apartment.
According to the complaint, when questioned, Dunkle said he was involved in an incident with the victim, who is his upstairs neighbor. He told police the victim had been making a lot of noise, so he went upstairs to speak to him. He reported the victim said he was sleeping and could not have been making noise.
Dunkle told police the victim was upset and started a physical altercation by pulling him into the apartment, and then threw a chair at him when he attempted to leave.
Police then spoke with the victim, who reported he was sleeping when someone began pounding on his door and yelling for help. At the door, he found Dunkle, who he reported was “irate.”
The victim told police that Dunkle “burst into his apartment, striking him in the face, pushing him, causing him to lurch backward,” and then began yelling at him about being too loud and having a noisy dog. The victim told Dunkle he was sleeping, not making noise, and didn’t own a dog, and Dunkle then pushed him into his stove and pulled a knife on him, the complaint states.
According to the complaint, the victim said Dunkle threatened to kill him and “his dog,” which put the victim in fear for his safety. The victim then got a machete he had in his living room and was able to back Dunkle out of the apartment. He then backed his way into his hallway and called the police.
Police observed some redness and a scratch with some blood on the victim’s right cheek, where he indicated Dunkle had struck him. Police also noted a wooden chair on the ground below the victim’s apartment landing. When asked where the chair came from, the victim said it was his chair, and Dunkle must have grabbed it and pulled it outside. The victim then stated when he went back the hall to call the police, he heard noises at his door and thought Dunkle was coming back inside, according to the complaint.
Police also found a light blue shirt on the floor in front of the victim’s stove. When asked about the shirt, the victim stated it was not his, and police noted it was larger than something that would have fit the victim. When asked, the victim said it was possibly Dunkle’s shirt.
Police then asked Dunkle about the shirt, and he stated it was his. When asked how it got to be in the victim’s apartment, Dunkle told police the victim “ripped the shirt off of him” when he pulled him inside the apartment. Dunkle reiterated that he did not enter the apartment of his own free will, but was pulled inside and said again that the victim had thrown the chair that was found outside at him, the complaint indicates.
Dunkle showed police a small bruise, which appeared to be older, on the back of his right arm, where he reported the chair hit him. He also told police something struck him on the head, but police were unable to find any visible mark, the complaint continues.
Dunkle also denied having a knife and was not found in possession of a knife when police arrived at the scene. However, when asked by police for permission to look in his apartment for the knife described, Dunkle refused and stated he wanted a lawyer present and a warrant, according to the complaint.
Dunkle was then placed under arrest.
He was arraigned in front of Magisterial District Judge Jeffrey C. Miller at 2:30 a.m. on Monday, May 25.

VHF DAS Antenna Contract for National Capitol Region
NORTH RIDGEVILLE, OH: June 27, 2011 – MP Antenna, the exclusive developer and manufacturer of advanced multi-polarized antenna technology, has been awarded a US government contract to supply 1,400 multi-polarized antennas to the Special Communications Requirements Division of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division.
The antennas will be used to distribute VHF radio signals in buildings, garages, and tunnels within the highly obstructed environment of the National Capitol Region. Given the historical significance of the buildings, the application required the antennas be unobtrusive and smaller than usual to be acceptable to building curators. Despite the small size constraints the antennas had to provide coverage normally only achievable with much larger high gain antennas.
“We are always encouraged when the numerous benefits of MP Antenna’s multi-polarized antenna technology are demonstrated in real world scenarios, but this contract win is special because of the high profile nature of the application,” said Joe Bliss, President of MP Antenna, Ltd.

It’s been quite a challenging week for me, as many of you know. And to be honest I have not completely recovered from my fever/cold/cough/any other thing that kids have passed on me this time. It’s very rare for me to get really sick, and even more rare are the times I get high fever. But when I do, I become unbearable. It really bothers me not to be able to function normally, to go around constantly with a tissue in my hand to blow my nose, to not feel like or have the strength to do things as usual. When I’m sick I’m miserable (and a big pain in the butt!).
I’m glad, sooo glad, the weekend is here. I will finally have a real chance to completely recover. My recovery process started this morning, with some good baking (and subsequent snack hehe ). Veneziane are a simple Italian pastry I had on my to-bake-soon list for a long time. Don’t be fooled by the appearance. They are not beignets. They are more like little brioche. But still, the dough does not taste like brioche at all! The recipe is adapted from the one I found at a great Italian blog (dolci a go go). I did not want to use my usual pastry cream recipe, though, so I went for a slightly different cream. I found the recipe a long time ago in a little booklet of my mom. There it was called crema paradiso, which translates to paradise cream. I tasted like heaven indeed. I’m quite happy for having tried this new cream recipe. It’s a keeper. And my recovery…well it sure started with the right foot!
Veneziane alla crema paradiso
For the veneziane
Yields 9-10 small veneziane
125 gr (4.5 oz or 1 cup) all-purpose flour
125 g (4.5 oz or a little less than one cup) bread flour
7 gr (1 ½ tsp) instant dry yeast
25 gr (2 tbsp) sugar
1 pinch salt
25 ml (0.85 fl oz) olive oil
125 ml (4.22 fl oz) warm milk
5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract
For the cream
Yields enough cream to fill all the veneziane
150 ml (5.07 fl oz) milk
90 ml (3 fl oz) cream
60 ml (2 fl oz) honey
3 egg yolks
50 gr (1.78 oz or ¼ cup) sugar
For the dough:
In a big bowl or on a floured surface, make a well with the flour, the yeast, the sugar, and the salt. Pour in the center the egg, the oil and the vanilla and lightly mix with a fork or the fingertips.
Slowly add the milk and keep mixing until the milk is well incorporated in the dough. The dough will be pretty sticky but don’t get discouraged and don’t add too much flour. Keep kneading for a few minutes, until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the dough becomes smooth (and yes, it will still be pretty sticky).
Put the dough in a lightly greased bowl and let it rest in a warm place for about an hour and a half or until the dough is double in bulk.
In the meantime, prepare the cream, so that you have enough time to let it cool down before using it.
In a small pot, pour the milk, the cream, and the honey and warm up the mixture on low flame until it lightly boils.
In the meantime, in a medium bowl, mix the egg yolks and the sugar until you obtain a smooth cream. Pour on top of it a few tablespoons of the boiled milk mixture and stir. Then, pour the rest of the milk mixture.
Put the whole cream back into a pot and let cook on a very low flame, stirring continuously, for a few minutes, this time without letting it boil.
The cream will be ready when it will have thickened just a little bit, enough to leave a light veil on the spoon.
At that point, take the cream off the stove, cover it with plastic wrap and let it cool down completely before using it (by the way, this cream can be served as a dessert in itself, served in small cups with a cookie or two!)
When the dough is double in bulk, divide it into 9-10 small balls and put them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Cover them and let them rest again in a warm place until double in bulk.
Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
When the little balls have doubled in bulk, cut a little cross on the top with the scissors and spread a tiny little bit of cream on it.
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until they start to get gold. Let them cool on a cooling rack.
Fill a pastry bag with the cream and fill the veneziane with it (I used a pretty small tip, #2 because I had previously strained the cream. If you do not strain the cream I suggest you use a bigger tip otherwise the cream will get stuck. However, be careful because the cream is still pretty liquid and with a big tip you risk it will be running all out the little brioches and you will make a mess. I did so once and I spilled cream everywhere, but after all….I’m very clumsy with the pastry bag!)
Sprinkle the veneziane with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
Have a sweet day!

In case you somehow missed it, this past Sunday was Super Bowl Sunday. For the past seven years my friend Holden hosts a dip party – “Dip-A-Palooza.” Everyone who attends is required to bring a homemade dip, and a lot of these guys go all out. Last year a jalapeno popper dip won DAP, it was also my first year so I found out what standards the dip had to be up to. I asked around and looked at some dips online, got a couple recommendations, and my mom even faxed me some recipes for fancy dips. I decided on a buffalo chicken dip my friend had made for the Seahawks playoff game a couple of weeks ago.
The dip recipe I based mine on came from allrecipes.com. I definitely spiced it up a bit. Here is my recipe:
- Two chicken breasts
- Hot sauce
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 2 packages cream cheese
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- Cayenne chili
- Chili Powder
- Srirachi sauce
I first preheated the oven to 350, then cut up and cubed the chicken into pieces and put it in a large sauce pan. I poured ¾ cups of hot sauce over the chicken, and cooked the sauce into the chicken. After the chicken cooked, I took two forks and started to pull apart the chicken in the pan to create smaller pieces. I added in the cream cheese and ranch dressing and waited for the mixture to melt down. All throughout this process, I was shaking in the various cayenne and chili sauces, trying to make the dip as spicy as I could. When the dressing and cream cheese started to melt, I began to have issues. The dip was turning really oily, and the ranch looked like it was curdling. It was a kitchen nightmare. I continued to stir it in hopes of mixing in the oil, but more appeared! I finally gave up, threw on half the cheese, mixed it around, put it in a Pyrex bowl, topped it with the rest of the cheddar cheese and put it in the oven. When I took out the dip 10 minutes later, the oil was still there, but it rose to the top so I tried to blot it out. This continued to be a process, dip in the oven, take dip out, blot with paper towel, repeat. My friend Erick had the genius idea to mix in sriracha, not only did it make the dip spicy, it soaked up most of the oil!
I chopped up some celery and took it to the party. It turned out to be a huge hit! Everyone loved it. The spice kicked in at the end, so people were in for a treat. Cooking the chicken in the hot sauce was a great idea, as the chicken was juicy and really spicy. I ended up coming in 6th of 20, a title I was happy to take! The winner was a pecan chocolate cheesecake dip, which was argued to be a spread and ineligible, but the votes called it the winner!
There were a couple things I learned from this experiment:
- Fred Meyer’s brand ranch dressing is disgusting
- Chili pepper gives a kick at the, unlike other peppers which are spicy at first taste
- Sriracha soaks up oils
- Don’t wait until last minute for Super Bowl supplies, everyone else is at the grocery store for the same reason
- Frank’s hot sauce will run out the morning of any major sporting event
I apologize for no pictures, but the way the dip turned out looking, I don’t think you’d want to see any if I did take them!

For the last seven years the Florida Department of Law Enforcement has compiled an annual report that measures how much money the state spends on protective services for the governor - as well as how much the state spent on security guarding other important visitors.
And it turns out that during the first full year where Rick Scott was governor the cost increased to nearly $2.5 million. That was an increase of nearly $264,000 from the previous fiscal year which covered six months when Charlie Crist was still governor.
It was also the highest total in the seven years FDLE has been keeping track of the expenses in this format.
Here's the AP story on the annual report which includes a statement from FDLE regarding the increased expenses under Scott.
Here's a copy of this year's annual FDLE report: Download Transportation and Protective Services Report 2011-2012 FINAL
One of the interesting highlights of the report is the transportation/expenditures costs for guarding Scott climbed nearly $100,000 from the previous year.
Scott, as you may recall, got rid of the state airplane and now uses his own private jet for many of his travels across the state.
A spokeswoman for FDLE pointed out that Scott does not charge the state when an agent accompanies him on the plane but did not provide details on why the transportation costs went up so much. It is also worth noting that during the 2011-12 fiscal year Scott did take three trips abroad to Brazil, Israel and Spain where he was accompanied by FDLE agents.
The report also shows that the overall cost for security increased this past year even though the cost of guarding governors and other visitors declined by $63,000.
Still the state spent nearly $295,000 providing security for 79 security details including ones for Gov. Bobby Jindal, Gov. Nikki Haley, Gov. Jack Martell, First Lady Michelle Obama and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
That cost also includes more than $55,000 FDLE spent on costs associated with the Republican Governors Association conference held last winter in Orlando.
Bondi got a security detail when she attended the oral arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court back in March. The cost to Florida taxpayers was $15,539.
Florida taxpayers also spent nearly $18,000 for five visits by Jindal to Florida - and more than $2,200 for a visit by members of his family.
The cost for two visits by the First Lady were just under $1,000.
Visits by Markell and his family cost more than $5,800, while the expenses of providing security for three visits by Haley and her family cost $13,460.
The report does not provide a copious amount of details about the expenses - other than breaking them up into salary costs, transportation and expenses and listing the trip as either "official" or "personal."

Started at (K)nighted Men-Part 1
It was probably close to three a.m when she heard the news. She had been staring at the the ceiling contemplating her exit options. Ends seem so funny though. Just when they come true.
She had a soft hint of smile on her face when she received the call. It was a distress call. His mother had probably decided to quietly tell her the news before it got down to courtroom dramas.
“It’s a loss to you in many ways than one,” the expression may sound innocent to one’s ears. But she knew it was far far from it.
He had left no will.
“You should be able to realise that better for yourself, Mala,” she replied with interceding sniffs but nevertheless having the desired effect, a soft murmur on the other side.
Inspector Salim had set his alarm to a healthy five am but alas his line of duty often called for subtle two hour changes to it. With half shut eyes and a cigarette in his hand to awaken the other senses, he reached the crime scene.
“Saheb, its a suicide. There is absolutely nothing one can read more into it,” the constable on duty, operating on high dosages of sleep deprivation stuttered into the night’s cold.
“Chai lekar aao,” but the inspector’s sharp command left all his conclusions out in the cold.
It was a long night, Salim mused. What with this case becoming another point in question for a long list of events.
By the time it was four, Mala had wiped her tears and settled her saree to a more befitting look. Men from all walks of life had been coming in. Did they question her for what had happened? Sadly yes. Her only son lost at his prime. If not looks or age but surely money.
“For the last time I was sleeping in the room next door. And before I knew it I heard the gunshot,” she finally started to lose her patience at the meandering maze of questions.
“What was the last thing you remember about him?” but the dark skinned, cigarette smelling inspector was persistent with his interrogation.
It was probably why he did it. Mala quietly sat in the corner and thought. There was that phone call, rather the argument on the phone call, just when she had gone to get the custard from the kitchen.
She had deliberately held herself back to overhear whatever she could pick.
There was a long silence on this side and then suddenly he burst out saying, “Then go. I cannot take it anymore. Everyday you have something to add to my misery.”
Inspector Salim was diligently taking notes. He was scribbling his name over and over again in a little red notebook. He was looking grim and nodding his head a lot.
There was something about the setup that it looked created. Somewhere someone was hiding. Or something was being hidden.
“Barkhudar woh chai ayee,” he suddenly shouted out.
contd at He dies a natural death-Part 3
I hope you enjoy this ongoing short story (again in parts). Looking forward to hear from you!

Ah, the New York City Wine & Food Festival. For some, an idyllic weekend of slurping down oysters or rubbing elbows with Guy Fieri and eating his prize-winning Bacon Mac ‘n’ Cheese Burger. But at least one attendee — who wishes to remain anonymous because they don’t want the Internet associating them with their awful-sounding symptoms — got in touch with Grub Street to say they were made very sick after going to Friday’s Burger Bash, and staffers at the ER let the attendee know it wasn’t an isolated incident.
You got food poisoning over the weekend.
And you were at the New York Wine & Food Festival?
Do you think that caused it?
Probably. I want to blame Guy Fieri, though I didn’t eat his burger at the Burger Bash. But I’m guessing something I ate wasn’t cooked properly.
So why do you think you got it at the NYCWFF?
At the ER, they said I was the fourth person that day to come in for the same symptoms, and others mentioned to the doctor they had been to NYCWFF.
What prompted you to go to the ER?
Obviously, when you’re throwing up blood, it’s time to go to the ER.
What did the doctors prescribe?
I’m still on the bizarre meds they gave me. Three pill bottles for almost two weeks! Ondansetron, Dicyclomine, and Famotidine. No clue what they actually do, but their prescription names are forcing me to believe they’re working.
What can you eat now?
All I can eat is broth, toast, and crackers. Then introduce things like bananas. I’ve lost five pounds … I may have to do this diet biweekly. Dairy is the biggest no-no, and cheese is at the bottom of my food pyramid.
Any other fallout?
I had to cancel two dates! When they didn’t believe my excuse, I sent them a photo of all my prescribed pill bottles.

On April 26th 2017 we are going to see a New Moon in Taurus, the sign of the Bull. For many of us, this is going to come as a welcome relief, as it’s fair to say that this year has not been easy so far.
To start with, 2017 kicked off with watery Pisces energy dragging us down to the depths and making us sluggish and introspective. Then we got a kickstart with the Aries New Moon, but despite this jolt of fiery energy thanks to the sign of Ram, you may have felt like you have been spinning your wheels for much of March and April. One of the big reasons for this is that April in particular sees not just one but five planets going retrograde, and this has led to a stop-start kind of energy where it may have seemed like you just couldn’t make any progress. The good news? Finally with the New Moon in Taurus on the 26th we will all be getting the astrological break that we deserve.
New Moons take from the sign that they fall in and this one comes courtesy of earthy Taurus. The Bull is one of the most grounded signs of the zodiac and its diligent and practical energy will help us to start making changes that are well thought through and stable. New Moons usually mean fresh starts, but with Mercury still retrograde on April 26th we would do well to harness the cautious nature of Taurus and double check that we have everything in place before Mercury goes direct on May 3rd and we can finally start making some moves, like signing contracts and buying electronics.
Taurus is also the sign that rules finances and material security, so this New Moon is the perfect opportunity to get our finances in shape and look at our bottom lines. Money matters may have felt a little stuck with the planetary pile up of retrograde energy, and the New Moon will give us the boost we need to get back on track and start making and saving some cash.
One thing to look out for with this New Moon is the fact that Taurus is known for being the slowest moving signs of all the zodiac. Whereas other New Moons like Aries often give us a boost right away, Taurus is more of a slow burn and it may take a few weeks for things to come together and for real progress to start being made. Still, Taurus is also known for being patient, so unlike the skittish and volatile nature of Aries that has been hanging over us, we will now feel calmer and more centered. This will see us happy to put one foot in front of the other and take slow but significant steps towards our future.
It’s true that Taurus is slow, plodding, and methodical, but there is a reason that its symbol is a Bull, an animal that has a habit of charging when provoked. This sign is also a go-getter, especially when it is related to something like a promotion or a financial reward, so after the New Moon will be the time to forge ahead in your career and really start pushing in the fields of business, finance, and commerce.
This may mean that many of us get a promotion or a new job that pays far better than our previous one. If you work for yourself you may land a big new client after the New Moon, or you may start to look at ways to boost your earning potential though launching your own website or business. Again it probably won’t be until after Mercury goes direct on May 3rd that you will start to see big changes, but anything that happens around the New Moon will be the start of something that will be long lasting and ultimately very profitable.
And now, for a look at how the New Moon will impact the lives of some of our favorite Taurus celebrities…
Born on May 6th, George Clooney is perhaps one of the most famous Taurus celebrities out there. As the New Moon approaches on April 26th, George and his wife Amal are preparing for the arrival of their twin babies. Reports say that the couple is going to move to Amal’s hometown of London for the birth, and this New Moon may finally give them the boost to start working towards the move in a practical way, as well as buying all the baby equipment they need. Taurus is all about security and building on solid foundations so now is the time when they might start thinking about decorating the nursery and baby-proofing the house. Astrochicks horoscope prediction for George Clooney is an emotionally fulfilling New Year, and we think he will be an excellent Daddy.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is just coming off releasing his new film, the 8th in the Fast and Furious franchise. It has already grossed $685 million at the box office, but things are set to get even better according to The Rock’s horoscope. The New Moon in Taurus signals a step up in Dwayne Johnson’s career and he may see a new and very lucrative offer coming his way soon. Apparently Universal executives are mulling the idea of a Fast and Furious spin off featuring The Rock, and if so this is likely to come together around the 26th with firm plans being made in the weeks that follow. Thanks to the power of the Taurus New Moon Dwayne Johnson can expect to do very well financially from any projects that he takes on now. At home, he’s found love and we astrologically predict a new baby in 2018.
It’s no secret that Janet Jackson has been going through a difficult time of it lately. Not only did she have a baby just a few short months ago, but now she has announced that she is divorcing the baby’s father Wissam Al Mana. With all the planetary hold up caused by the recent retrogrades however, it would be no surprise if little headway had been made on the divorce settlement and with fiery Aries energy floating around there have probably been some harsh words said behind closed doors. The New Moon won’t fix any of this immediately but it will be the time for this couple to start working towards hashing out an agreement in a calmer and more focused environment. If anyone wants to settle, then the time after the New Moon when Mercury goes direct is the best moment to do it. Our Astrology prediction is this is going to be a VERY expensive divorce for Wissam Al Mana but we think Janet Jackson will be relieved it’s finally over.

One revealing fact was a marriage of his sister Margaret to a William John FRIEND. I am already investigating family links involve FRIEND, CHURCH, KEMP and FAGG. First thoughts suggest illegitimacies and other inter-family connections. Use of FRIEND as a middle name for KEMP family, similar use of CHURCH as a middle name, suggest possible maiden names and/or fathers of illegitimacies.
I’m getting into a right tangle!

Is it possible to see RAW as part of the editing programme but shown on top of the editor.
I have been using Elements 11 in conjunction with Camera RAW 7.1, however,when I need to edit any photographs (I shoot in RAW exclusively) The RAW window does not appear, is it part of and embedded in the Lightroom editor so that it is not possible or necessary to see?
I'm not sure what you are asking for, but the way Lightroom works is the way it works. You can turn toolbars on and off, or panels on and off, but the location of the photo cannot be changed.
Thanks for your reply.
I have only just started using Lightroom 5 but in an older version of
Lightroom using Camera RAW 4.1 it was possible to see the image.
I saw the idea in 'The Creative Digital Darkroom' this was published
several years ago.
Having looked closer at the programme I see everything is more or less
Many thanks for your help

Objectives To determine whether occupational exposure to gasoline engine emissions (GEE) increased the risk of lung cancer and more specifically whether leaded or unleaded GEE increased the risk.
Methods Two population-based case–control studies were conducted in Montreal, Canada. The first was conducted in the early 1980s and included many types of cancer including lung cancer. The second was conducted in the late 1990s and focused on lung cancer. Population controls were used in both studies. Altogether, there were 1595 cases and 1432 population controls. A comprehensive expert-based exposure assessment procedure was implemented and exposure was assessed for 294 agents, including unleaded GEE, leaded GEE and diesel engine emissions (DEE). Logistic regression analyses were conducted to estimate ORs between various metrics of GEE exposure and lung cancer, adjusting for smoking, DEE and other potential confounders.
Results About half of all controls were occupationally exposed to GEE. Irrespective of the metrics of exposure (any exposure, duration of exposure and cumulative exposure) and the type of lung cancer, and the covariates included in models, none of the point estimates of the ORs between occupational exposure to leaded or unleaded GEE and lung cancer were above 1.0. Pooling two studies, the OR for any exposure to leaded GEE was 0.82 (0.68–1.00).
Conclusions Our results do not support the hypothesis that occupational exposure to GEE increases the risk of lung cancer.
- gasoline engine emissions
- lung neoplasms
- occupational exposure
- diesel engine emissions
- case–control studies

Woman hit by vehicle in downtown Scranton
Scranton Fire Chief Tom Davis was behind the wheel of a truck that struck a pedestrian crossing Linden Street in downtown Scranton just before 2 p.m. Friday.
Debra Major, 60, of Jessup, was hit head-on by the truck turning east on Linden Street from North Washington Avenue, police said.
Ms. Major was transported to Geisinger Community Medical Center's intensive care unit, where she was in critical condition Friday night, according to a hospital spokeswoman.
Acting Scranton Police Chief Carl Graziano said a review of a video surveillance camera showed the woman outside of the crosswalk, stepping into the path of the truck, which had a green arrow, he said.
The camera is used by the Lackawanna County Courthouse.
Charges don't appear likely, Chief Graziano said.
"This investigation is by no means closed," he said. "At this point, it appears the driver had a green light and she stepped into the path of (the) vehicle."
Lynn Rice, a staff member at Gabby's Luncheonette, thought the truck hit a utility pole when she heard the collision and saw the woman's twisted body on the pavement. The collision left a dent on the hood of the truck, she said.
Mark Colarossi, a Times-Shamrock employee, was nearby when the crash happened. His sister held the woman's hand until first responders arrived.
The intersection was closed and cordoned off with police tape after the incident, leaving the truck idling for more than a half hour.
Although the matter involved a city official, Chief Graziano said Scranton police decided not to turn the investigation over to another agency, such as the state police.
"They took the first look, had the video of the incident," he said. "If anything conflicted, perhaps they would have considered that."

Although the Ministry of Defence has signed a number of major tactical and support vehicle contracts over the past decade, the overall rate and level of tactical vehicle procurement across the British armed services has declined since 1990.
With this shift, British tactical vehicle manufacturers and those across Europe have increasingly shifted focus to the export market as the primary outlet for their military products.
Analyst D. Lockwood at Forecast International said in a report:
“The lingering effects of economic austerity measures will continue to restrain the scale of domestic tactical vehicle procurement by the U.K. Ministry of Defence. However, the MoD may make some modest modernization and procurement efforts in the coming years, extending the service life of existing vehicle stocks and bringing vehicles purchased for combat operations in Afghanistan into the Army’s peacetime force structure.
Further, the British Army’s Future Support Vehicle requirement remains a top priority for the U.K. MoD.
In the medium-vehicle market segment, the U.K. Defence Procurement Agency selected MAN ERF UK Ltd to fulfill the British Army’s FSV requirement. The British Army intends to replace its stocks of 4-, 8- and 14-tonne support inventories with the new vehicles from the FSV family. The initial contract called for the procurement of 5,165 new-build vehicles, at a cost of $1.98 billion. In 2006, the DPA exercised an option for a supplementary order of 2,000 vehicles, worth $461.3 million.”
The FSV family of vehicles consists of eight variants, in 4×4, 6×6, and 8×8 configurations. According to MAN, over half of the production work on the series occurs domestically in the U.K.
However, a significant portion of the chassis production for the series takes place at MAN facilities in Vienna, Austria.
“The cornerstone of the British light tactical vehicle market remains the renowned and ubiquitous Land Rover. Although Land Rover vehicles have faced operational challenges and criticism over their performance in the IED-laden battlefields of the 21st century, the family currently remains the backbone of the British Army’s light tactical transport inventory, with Supacat contributing a smaller, but increasingly important secondary share.”

- Stops federal universities from collecting tuition fees Lifts emergency on Lassa fever
Omololu Ogunmade in Abuja
The Federal Executive Council (FEC) rose from its weekly meeting in Abuja wednesday with a resolution mandating the Ministry of Health to beef up surveillance and screening of passengers at the country’s land borders and airports with a view to averting the return of Ebola into the country.
Briefing journalists at the end of the meeting presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, the Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole, said blood samples taken from five patients in DR Congo confirmed that two of the five patients had been infected with Ebola.
According to him, the council resolved to set up Emergency Operation Centre to be chaired by one Babasanya whom he said led the Nigerian efforts in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone against the outbreak of the disease in 2014.
The minister also said not only would the government ensure the screening of passengers coming into the country especially those from DR Congo, Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) would also consider sending a team to DR Congo in its quest for capacity building with a view to ensuring effective management of the situation.
He promised that the government would also ensure that the country was well protected from the outbreak.
The minister also said following the content of the report presented to the council by the Ministry of Health on Lassa Fever, the council had resolved to lift the emergency earlier declared on Lassa Fever in the country.
He also said negotiations on the strike embarked upon by the Joint Health Staff Union (JOHESU) would be concluded soon.
“We presented an update on the state of public health in Nigeria at the FEC meeting. We reported on the situation with Lassa Fever and resolved that we are declaring the emergency phase of Lassa Fever outbreak over. Essentially, that implies that the emergency operating centres would be stood down but that instead of meeting everyday throughout the country, they will now meet once a week. They will still continue surveillance so that if there are cases anywhere in the country, we can quickly dictate it and treat it appropriately.
“Of course, of great concern to the Federal Exceutive Council is the outbreak of Ebola in DR Congo. As you might be aware, over the last one month, DRC recorded 19 suspected cases of viral hemorrhagic fever and lost 16 of the cases. But what is also particularly important was that last Monday, blood samples from five patients in the DRC, particularly in a particular district in DRC, in two of the five cases, Ebola was actually confirmed. And, FEC has now directed the Federal Ministry of Health to step up emergency surveillance activities at all land and airport borders, so that we can actually keep Nigerians safe.
“What we will do is to set up an emergency operation centre which will be chaired by Dr. Babasanya, who actually led our efforts in Liberia and Sierra Leone and Guinea during the outbreak in 2014. Not only that, we will also be screening incoming passengers, particularly passengers from DRC and neigbouring countries. We will also ensure we step up all activities screening people coming in so that we will not be caught unawares.
“Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) will also consider sending some team to DRC as part of building capacity for managing the outbreak. We want to assure Nigerians that the federal government is concerned about the outbreak and will do everything possible to keep the country safe.
“Negotiations are still on with JOHESU and the Minister of Labour is leading the negotiation as we expect that we will conclude on all issues very soon,†he stated.
In his briefing, the Minister of State for Education, Prof. Anthony Anwuka, said FEC resolved yesterday to investigate the discovery that federal universities collect tuition fees contrary to the laws setting them up.
According to him, the council would ensure that such practice is brought to a close, pointing out that whereas the federal government does not determine tuition fees for state and private universities, the federal universities have no right to impose tuition on students, adding that FEC approved the advent of Skyline University, Kano.
“FEC approved the insurance of provisional licence for the establishment of Skyline
University in Kano. The application for the establishment of the Skyline University has been on for the last years and the National University Commission (NUC) after going through the rigorous verification of the claims as to the application, sent a recommendation to the Ministry of Education, which in turn presented the request to FEC and it was approved.
“While making the approval, FEC noted the following issues: ‘They wanted the NUC through the ministry to provide a status report to FEC on all the country’s universities in terms of their performance, be they private, state or federal. We stressed on quality of staff on various universities.
“And then, FEC discussed the issue of school fees in various universities, and noted that as of law, no federal university should charge tuition fees. We understand some universities now charge fees per course unit and we are going to make sure that we investigate that properly and make it stop. But students can pay other auxiliary fees but not in excess.
“Various university councils and management should be able to fix what fees students should pay that is affordable and acceptable to the students. That is the position. The federal government does not determine fees for private and state universities, they only take responsibility for fees paid in the federal universities,†Anwuka stated.
Also briefing, the Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, said FEC approved the purchase of equipment for the completion of control towers in some airports including Maiduguri, Akure, Benin, Illorin, Kaduna and Ibadan at the cost of N1.36billion.
“FEC approved procurement of equipment for the completion of control towers in some airports that included Maiduguri, Akure, Benin, Illorin, Kaduna and Ibadan. These particular procurement was done in 2011. From 2011, the government stopped funding a particular procurement with all its importance. So, we provided for it in 2017 in order to complete it, and the council has graciously approved to complete those control towers which will enhance communications and security of our airspace. The total value is N1,365, 364, 458.75,†he said.
In the same vein, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geofrey Onyeama, described President Muhammadu Buhari as the strongest brand in Nigeria today.
“One of the strongest brands that this country has is the president. By the level of invitation he has been receiving, all the major heads of states want to meet with him. I think this is a recognition of the weight of his persona, his integrity and the leadership qualities. And, this is something we as a country have to be extremely proud of, and we saw that when he went to the United States and the respect Donald Trump has for him.
“He was extremely focused during that visit on Nigeria’s interest. He wanted the US to help him and this country achieve those priority areas – security, corruption and revamping the economy. The US is on our side on the fight against insecurity, training and sharing of information. We secure the commitment of the US to repatriate large sums of looted money in the country,†he stated.

Or in the words of the immortal John Lynch - the Hall of Fame Roughrider broadcaster from the 1970's and 80's -, "Where do we go from here, caller?"
Your Jolly Green Giants are the CFL's only winless team at 0-3 following their latest defeat, 40-27 at the hands of the B.C. Lions Saturday night at Mosaic Stadium. In the fourth quarter of Saturday's game when Lions punter Richie Leone hit a 69-yard punt single and their point total hit 40, I winced. That's a lot of points to give up.
And the script continued to follow the disturbing narrative from the past two years; without Darian Durant, this team can't win.
The Face of the Franchise went down with a "lower body injury" in the second quarter of Saturday's game, with his Roughriders leading 10-7. And has has been the case with Tino Sunseri, Seth Doege, Kerry Joseph, Kevin Glenn, Brett Smith and now the little-known Mitchell Gale, no back-up has been able to rally this team to victory without the vaunted Riders' #4.
No coaching staff has discovered the magic formula to overcome Durant's absence either. At least, not yet.
Had Durant finished Saturday's game, Saskatchewan wins it. Hands down. But for whatever reason, the roof over Canada's Team habitually falls in without their leader.
Why do defensive backs suddenly have brain farts and blow coverages when Durant's watching on the sidelines in a t-shirt and ball cap? Why can't defenders hang onto a sure interception even when Durant's not even on the field? It's what's called "a phenomena". The unexplained.
The Webster's Dictionary definition of "phenomena": "something (such as an interesting fact or event) that can be observed and studied and that typically is unusual or difficult to understand or explain."
The impact of Darian Durant on this franchise's fortunes is truly inexplicable and definitely underrated. And now the team is, again, looking at making plans for "Life Without Darian" as they prepare to host the Ottawa RedBlacks this Friday night at Mosaic Stadium. Durant's immediate status is uncertain, other than the pivot told reporters on the weekend that the injury is not long-term.
And it's time to face facts. Since Darian Durant went down with a season-ending injury in the 2014 Banjo Bowl in Winnipeg, the club is 5-25.
That is a helluva lot of losing.
Is it any wonder none of the three home games this year have been sellouts?
Now you can't hang much of this on the new Saskatchewan Roughrider braintrust of Chris Jones and John Murphy because they're not responsible for anything that happened prior to 2016. But they understand that losing does not go over well in the 306 and know full well that the natives are getting restless.
"I know this: we've got a lot of character in that room and I saw a lot of bright eyes in there," said a hopeful Chris Jones after Saturday's game. "Hadn't been that long ago (in 2011), B.C. started 0-5 and ended up going to the Grey Cup. It's a long season and we've gotta just continue to scratch and claw and we've got a good solid character group, players and coaches included.
"All we can do is all we can do. We're not gonna throw the baby out with the bathwater."
It's clear Saskatchewan is slowly falling in love with Jones, his southern drawl and folksy sayings but these fans would turn on their own mother if she had a losing record.
31,014 Rider fans nearly filled the stadium on Saturday and they showed up with a chip on their shoulder. It was a perfect summer night and the fans were primed for a victory. They were loud, and had a serious edge. But they left silent and dejected with 2:06 remaining when their team turned it over on downs.
And now, we wait to see how the fanbase deals with an 0-3 start this week. The Roughriders understand if the fans are upset.
"Of course," shrugged Jones' righthand man John Murphy. "I'm not saying that's their role but that's their role. When we're winning you should be supportive, happy and content but if we win one in-a-row, you want to see two. If we win 10 in-a-row, you want to see 11. You never should be satisfied as a fan no matter how well we're doing, and then be okay with the fact if we give our best for four quarters and it doesn't turn out. I'm very fine with you being as hyper-critical as you want to because it's your dollars."
These are football guys who know the score and aren't insecure. In a refreshing change of philosophy around here, they're going to give it to you straight.
Now it's up to YOU whether you want to hang around on the bangwagon to see how it all plays out, beginning this Friday night and in the subsequent weeks leading up to November.
Are you living with this team or are you dying with this team?
I'd truly love to know.
9 MONDAY QUICK HITS
1 - BROOKS AND DONE: There's no question that the low hit by B.C. defensive tackle Micha'el Brooks was a deliberate attempt to injure Darian Durant. The Lions' #90 was falling at Durant's feet but he swooped his legs in a "slewfoot" motion and clipped the Rider quarterback in the back of the legs. However when the CFL head office examines the tape early this week, the worst punishment Brooks will suffer is likely to be a fine.
On play #14 Brooks was flagged for facemasking Durant while play #47 was the one where he took out Durant's legs. There was talk this spring that any player guilty of two major fouls would be ejected from the game but that idea was not included in the list of rule changes that was announced on April 7.
2 - C'MON GUYS: I was appalled to read the media's reaction on Twitter to Friday's eyesore of a game in Montreal, a Hamilton 31-7 victory over the Alouettes. It's fine to point out that the game was a debacle, but one reporter said he was only there because he was being paid while another wondered what CFL Commissioner Jeffrey Orridge would say about the game, since he was in attendance. Like Orridge had any control over what was going on on the field.
Any CFL fan reading these reports certainly wouldn't be scrambling to turn the television on to watch the game. Is that what we want? Dissuading fans from our product? It's not necessarily the media's responsiblity to promote the CFL but what happened Friday night on Twitter was a "snowball effect" of negative coverage with each reporter trying one-up the next guy with snide remarks about the game.
To me, it went far over the line.
3 - WOE IS WINNIPEG: Edmonton receiver Adarius Bowman ate up the Blue Bombers to the tune of 185 yards in the Eskimos' 20-16 victory over the Blue & Gold. TSN panelist Jock Climie observed that things might be different for the Bombers - and quarterback Drew Willy - if they had a game-changing receiver like Bowman in their lineup. I thought that comment was quite a stretch because it would take far more than Bowman to make Winnipeg a contender at this point.
Now the hand-wringing in Winnipeg has resumed with the Bombers' 1-3 start and calls for Head Coach Mike O'Shea's head are being heard far and wide. However it's the play of Drew Willy which should be of utmost concern and while watching the game, I thought to myself maybe we jumped the gun on annointing Willy among the league's elite quarterbacks. TSN 1290 Winnipeg's Troy Westwood feels Willy has never recovered mentally from the severe concussion and knee injuries he's suffered in the past and he may never be the same again.
Really it's up to Drew to prove everybody wrong, and turn this Bomber season around.
4 - TAMPERING: Major League Baseball's investigation into the All Star break comments by Boston's David Ortiz regarding his Red Sox signing pending free agent Edwin Encarnacion of the Blue Jays had rammifications across all pro sports. Vancouver Canucks GM Jim Benning was harshly fined for making similar off-the-cuff remarks about NHL free agents at last month's Draft.
It's easy for the league office to investigate such public remarks but it's far more difficult to nail down the true tampering - that done via text message, email or phone conversations by league Presidents, General Managers or coaches.
The greatest example of this in the CFL is the Riders luring Chris Jones away from the Eskimos and the still-unanswered question of: When exactly did Rider President Craig Reynolds contact Jones for the first time?
We'll never know, and that's why tampering will never be snuffed out entirely.
Commissioner Jeffrey Orridge introduced a splashy new Anti-Tampering Policy this off-season but all it's done is cause management types to go even more "underground" in their recruiting.
I suggest leagues stop the fruitless exercise of eliminating tampering because they never will get rid of it entirely.
5 - GLUEY HUGHIE: I can't remember when I've had as much fun as interviewing all those members of the 1966 Grey Cup champion Riders last week. They included George Reed, Dale West, Wayne Shaw, Hugh Campbell and Alan Ford and the club said it really enhanced ticket sales.
Thursday was our chance to interview Campbell - a 2000 inductee into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame - and I asked him if the "Rider Pride" tradition began in the 1960's when he showed up from Saratoga, CA. However Hughie said it was already alive and well when he showed up in 1963.
When he recounted all of the things Rider fans did back then (staging rallies for the team, decorating their houses in green and white, travelling on the road for games), it was remarkable because they're still doing all the same things.
Where and when did this phenomenon start?
6 - BLACKOUTS: The Riders will likely be scrambling to sell seats for this Friday's home game against the Ottawa RedBlacks. They even introduced a "Flash Special" last week, blowing out endzone seats for about $20.
It's supposed to be a long, hot week and hopefully by Friday fans will be in the mood to come watch the Riders in a night game at home.
However the allure of staying home and watching on television may simply be far too great.
The Riders haven't blacked out a televised home game since 2006 and my guess is they never will again.
However if attendance dips below 90% of capacity, they'll be well within their rights to.
Many of us thought the Farewell Season would be an automatic sellout from pillar to post.
Guess we don't know everything.
7 - OH WHAT A FEELING!: This never gets old -
That's two straight weeks in the money! It didn't take long to figure out the nuances of the Canadian football game and how to best-use them to win at DraftKings.
Would it be worthwhile to stage a Fantasy Football segment in the SportsCage weekly? This enhancement to the CFL has made the games infinitely more enjoyable.
8 - SMASHING MILESTONES: This blog topped 16-million all-time hits over the weekend and I'm proud to say our new policy on Anonymous Commenting has done nothing to hinder readership. Thank you for your continued support and here's to many more years of reporting on the Roughriders and the local sports scene on this blog!
9 - ONE MORE: I'd like to wish long-time Rider Radio analyst Carm Carteri a belated Happy 60th Birthday! We celebrated Carm's birthday in his backyard on Sunday with several Rider alumni and close family and friends of the Carm's. His family truly went above and beyond with this birthday cake commemorating Taylor Field and the old Carteri house where Carm was raised on Garnet Street right in the shadow of the Grand Ol' Lady.
THAT'S IT! SEE YOU ON THE RADIO ..

The louse clinging to hair. Its dark stomach indicates a recent feed of bloodAnyway, despite my dread of live lice, they are fascinating creatures on their own right. Lice are apterous bloodsucking insects (order Phthiraptera) that are adapted to clinging to hair - hence, they are found only in mammals. They lay their eggs gluing them in a shaft to individual hairs, close to the scalp. The newborn lice are nymphs, they are smaller and simpler than adults and metamorphose slowly into adults in three stages. Individuals live for a month or so and females can lay several hundreds of eggs in their lifetime. The study of such species-specific ectoparasites can provide information on the evolution of their hosts. Humans are the host of two species of lice (wingless insects of the order Anoplura), the pubic louse and the hair/body lice complex. In the past hair and body lice were thought to belong to different species, one adapted to lay their eggs on hair, the other on clothing. It was thought that body lice had evolved with the invention of clothing into a separate species. Molecular analysis have revealed, though that the body louse has evolved several times and that they do not form a monophyletic unit separate from head lice. These studies have revealed more intriguingly that there are three old genetic lineages of lice (only one of them includes body lice) and the authors hypothesized that one of such lineages might have evolved in Homo erectus, and been transferred to modern humans when they met. A fascinating hypothesis that has proven to be difficult to test due to the lack of good calibrations for lice DNA.

April the First marks the official arrival of Historic England, the public body that will look after and champion England’s historic environment.
Already the new body has announced the results of new research which shows English people recognise and protect the nationally significant sites in their area. A growing number of people are visiting the National Heritage List for England to find out about them.
Historic England has also revealed that almost everyone in England now lives within a mile of a designated heritage asset – a building, monument, archaeological site, battlefield, park or garden that is listed for protection.
Designation is the act of officially identifying the most important parts of our heritage so they can receive special protection and be added to the National Heritage List for England. We celebrate their significance – and make sure that our history can be enjoyed by present and future generations.
A poll of more than 5,000 adults has revealed that English people care deeply for their heritage. Just under two fifths (38%) have taken action to protect a local building or place from damaging change, or from becoming derelict or disused. The results suggest a higher-than-expected willingness among the public to protect heritage around them.
Awareness is also high from a poll of more than 1,750 people, with almost half (46%) of English people saying they know of a historically significant building or place within a mile of where they live, and almost two thirds (64%) saying they are interested in their local heritage.
Sir Laurie Magnus, Historic England Chairman, said: “These results are fascinating. They show that people care deeply about our heritage and the importance of protecting our spectacular castles, country houses, monuments, memorials and ancient archaeological sites. They are also concerned about the fate of their local heritage and increasingly recognise the importance of places of worship, parks and gardens, historic industrial sites and maritime heritage.”

At the risk of angering the sea of Ron Paul supporters out there, I'm getting really tired of people talking about Ron Paul as the only one who "understands" the Constitution.
I guarantee you that 99.9% of these people developed their opinions about the Constitution based on their person political beliefs, and not the other way around. The Constitution and Constitutional theory are incredibly complex, and it's not as if seas of Constitutional scholars just aren't "understanding" the Constitution because they see it as a living document.

Einstein often said that if you can't explain your theory to a man on the street then you probably have it wrong. The notion that government is too complicated for the average citizen to engage and that a special group of elites should be relied upon to interpret our Constitution for us flies in the face of the words of our founders. The Soviets tried to micromanage their economy and government and failed miserably. What makes you think that we can do the same thing and succeed? Einstein also said that to do the same thing repeatedly and expect a different result is the definition of insanity. Sorry for all of the Einstein quotes. I majored in Physics.

Research Associate: The post holder will co-ordinate the various aspects of the project. They will write up the documentation for the amateur transcribers, run the publicity campaign which will recruit them, act as moderator of the submitted transcripts, and help to draft the qualitative user study and the final report.
Research Associate (IT): The post holder will be working with another Research Associate and the web developer to create an attractive and intuitive interface. They will take responsibility for the mark-up of the existing transcripts from MS Word into TEI compliant XML, link the digital images to the existing database catalogue and the transcription tool, and help draft user documentation and a qualitative user study. Although a post-doc is preferred, applicants with relevant experience but no PhD will be considered if they can demonstrate they have the desired skill set. Please contact us if you are unsure whether to apply, or whether your experience matches our requirements.
Closing date for both applications is 8th March 2010. Please get in touch (email@example.com) if you have any queries, or want further information.
Just to let you know, its now in press. And the joy of camera ready copy (after the pain of pasting lovely, well formed, XML into nasty, petulant, MicroSoft Word templates) is that the turnaround should be pretty quick. Heck, its already up on the Gorgias Press website... expect a "real" book in the next four weeks or so!

We at UCL are all terribly proud of Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832)- whose body, or "Auto-icon" is on display in the South Cloisters. It is widely told that he was the founder of UCL - which isnt true, although he did influence those who did found our University. I dont think I'll ever get bored in saying "Good morning!" to him every day as I walk past. You'll be pleased to know his case gets locked up tight every evening to allow him some rest.
He was a prolific writer, scholar, jurist, philosopher, and social scientist. A.J.P. Taylor described him as `the most formidable reasoner who ever applied his gifts to the practical questions of administration and politics’. Since the 1950s, The Bentham Project has been working towards the production of a new scholarly edition of his works and correspondence, although they've only dented the surface of the 60,000 pages of writing he produced which remain in UCL's special collections.The Bentham Project did receive some AHRC money a few years ago to start digitising the material, although it was time for a rethink. Enter the Arts and Humanities Research Council’s highly competitive Digital Equipment and Database Enhancement for Impact (DEDEFI) scheme.
I've been asked to join the project in an advisory role. It became clear to me very quickly that in a one year project there was never going to be enough time for two (maximum, under the funding) research assistants to digitise and transcribe tens of thousands of pages of manuscript material. So what, I thought, if we change the focus of the transcription initiative?
The Guardian Newspaper had run a very successful investigation into the UK MP's expense scandal in 2009, using an online crowdsourcing application to let their readership help sort though the 450,000 documents that needed closer study. Would it be possible, I thought, to develop a similar tool for cultural heritage documents? Can we persuade the wider historical community to contribute to the transcription effort?
I am pleased to say that UCL Laws, in conjunction with UCL Centre for Digital Humanities, UCL Department of Information Studies, and UCL Library Services, can announce the launch of the Bentham Papers Transcription Initiative, which has secured £260,000 funding from the AHRC DEDEFI scheme.
The Bentham Papers Transcription Initiative is a highly innovative and novel attempt to aid in the transcription of Bentham’s work. A digitisation project will provide high quality scans of the papers, whilst an online transcription tool will be developed which will allow volunteers to contribute to the transcription effort: providing a “crowdsourcing” tool which will be used to manage contributions from the wider audience interested in Bentham’s work, including school students, and amateur historians. It will be the job of the research assistants to manage interaction with the wider historical community, and monitor the quality of the transcriptions which are added to the database.
The use of such a tool for the transcription of cultural and heritage material is novel (although do shout if you know anyone else planning something similar), and UCL’s CIBER group will monitor the use of the online tool, providing an in-depth study of how such a crowdsourcing application was used during the year- long project.
Work on the project begins on March 1st 2010, and the project shall be shortly hiring for two research assistants. The online tool will be launched mid-summer 2010, when you can contribute to transcribing the works of Jeremy Bentham yourself!
Did I mention I was super excited about this? Grin.

The Digital Classicist seminars run on Friday afternoons from June to August in Senate House, London. In previous years collected papers from the DC WiP seminars have been published* in a special issue of an online journal (2006), edited as a printed volume (2007), and released as audio podcasts (2008-9); we anticipate similar publication opportunities for future series. A small budget is available to help with travel costs.
Please send a 300-500 word abstract to
March 31st 2010. We shall announce the full programme in April.

Today is the official, internal launch of the new UCL Centre for Digital Humanities. There will be a small internal launch party - if you are around and at UCL, then more details are here - but a bigger external launch in May (email me if you want to go on the guestlist. There will be much wine and song for all in the DH world then).
We've got a really interesting blog, which may be worth subscribing to - lots of things in the pipeline...
Wish us luck. Posters are printed. Invites are out. Sticky-backed plastic is ordered to hang forementioned posters. And I have my party shoes on, rather than converse trainers, so it must be a special day...

A murder case in India is getting plenty of attention not just because it involves a heinous crime, but because media outlets claim it shows us normal folks that the high-life, well, isn't so sparkly. It surrounds India's first female TV mogul, Indrani Mukerjea, whose 25-year-old daughter, Sheena Bora, vanished in 2012. Mukerjea said Bora disappeared while studying in the US. However, her burnt remains were found in a Raigad forest and Mukerjea is now accused of her murder, per the Times of India; police say two accomplices have confessed; one is reportedly Mukerjea's chauffeur, who allegedly said he was paid $1,500 and bought containers of gas around the time, reports the Indian Express. Police say Mukerjea operated social media and email accounts in Bora's name throughout 2012 to make it look like she was in the US and allege she also tried to kill son Mikhail Bora with poison in 2012, the Indian Express reports; he survived.
Police tell India Today that Sheena Bora was getting "greedy," asking her mother for money, and that Mukerjea finally had enough. Media outlets, now investing in what a former employee calls a "tabloid gold mine," say the case shows the damage done by materialism. Born to a middle-class family, Mukerjea married Mumbai-based media tycoon Peter Mukerjea after her first marriage and together they started a TV network, per the Guardian. They lived in one of the city’s most exclusive areas and by 2008, Mukerjea had landed on the Wall Street Journal's 50 "Women to Watch" list, notes the Guardian. Dilip Bobb, writing in Outlook magazine, calls her "the female equivalent of Jay Gatsby," whose life is "illustrative of the social mores and motivations in the upper reaches of Indian society." (In Georgia, two brothers are accused of trying to kill their parents—for reasons unknown.)
