On June 11, 2018, my oldest daughters attended their first “real” concert. Harry Styles, formerly of One Direction, was a near sold out show and we sat in section 107, Row K (pretty awesome seats). Harry Styles is the equivalent of my generations New Kids on The Block or New Edition and Jordan Knight or Bobby Brown going on a solo tour.
With an average age of 14.75, the pre-concert sing along to Bohemian Rhapsody led me to believe this would be a great show….and Mr. Styles did not disappoint this 45-year-old dad nor his squealing, high pitched fans, especially the two that came with me. They will remember this show the rest of their lives and talk, but more importantly, the memories with Dad will live forever and most likely be discussed long after I am gone.

Yesterday, I was playing around with my Zune HD when it suddenly just shut down itself. Blank Screen. No response on the buttons. In other words, it seemed like I have a bricked Zune HD in my hand. Without me doing anything really that strenuous and stupid to brick it.
So I tried unplugging and plugging it again on my usb port, the computer detected it basing from the notify sound when you plug in a device. But still no response from the device. It was not a battery issue as I had it full and plugged-in when it died on me. I then tried plugging it on a direct AC socket using the Zune Adapter I got from the Zune AV Dock thinking it may have more kick to it coming directly from a power brick. Still nothing.
I was beginning to feel frustrated that I will have to send this back to the US for warranty. But how? The Zune website does not have any email address to contact support. They only provide telephone numbers that was meant to be called by US residents. I know the Zune HD isn’t supported right now, but I was crossing my fingers and thinking maybe..maybe they will honor the warranty and stuff because of the recently Zune-like Windows Phone 7 Series launching international.
I then decided to leave it plugged in the usb port overnight and maybe tomorrow it would work. But before really going to bed (or before closing my eyes) I decided to try one more time and held the dead zune on my hand as I pressed all the buttons frantically. I concentrated on pushing the top ON/OFF button repeatedly and whispered a small prayer hoping it would turn on.
I really don’t know why it died but it did. If I hadn’t tried pushing the buttons wildly maybe I would have never known that it still would work. Maybe some Zune HD owners out there had the same issue and never did do anything and just sent it in for repairs or even sold it as a defective product.
Prayers even whispered are heard.
Before selling and returning a seemingly dead item. Try doing something wild and weird to it. (bordering to the blowing of old nes cartridges) You won’t lose anything anyway and besides it just might work.

Jury selection is underway in the trial that pitting server maker HP against its formerly strong software partner Oracle as they argue about the future of a technology that neither one of them controls: Intel's Itanium processor.
Well, given that HP has been making payments to Intel to continue to develop the Itanium chips, at least according to documents that Oracle obtained during the discovery phase of the trial and released to the public two weeks ago, then we can say that HP had at least some say in the future of the Itanium. If HP had stopped paying Intel, Itanium would almost certainly be in mothball mode like Compaq's Digital's Alpha and HP's PA-RISC processors.
There's inherently nothing wrong with paying a fab to make a chip. Advanced Micro Devices does it with Opterons, for instance, and so do zillions of other chip designers that are too poor to afford a fab and too smart to try to buy one.
The difference, of course, is that Intel has been shepherding the development of Itanium since the initial "Merced" Itaniums from 2001 were co-developed with HP, using its EPIC explicit parallelism ideas; and really took over in earnest with the "Madison" Itanium 2s launched in 2003.
The exact relationship between HP and Intel with respect to Itanium development was never divulged, of course, but the documents released by Oracle show that big-time sums, as high as $88m per quarter, were sent from Palo Alto to Santa Clara to keep Itanium afloat.
This was only necessary, of course, because Itanium, which started out in the late 1990s with every major server vendor and every major operating system promising to make boxes and port their code to it, did not take over the world right alongside InfiniBand in networks and interface cards.
By the time the current quad-core "Tukwila" Itanium 9300 processors were in development and suffering delays in the late 2000s, all but a handful of machines using Itanium that did not have an HP Integrity or Superdome brand on it had disappeared from the market. There have been a few entries, like Super Micro and Huawei Technologies, to be sure. But IBM, Dell, Sun, and Fujitsu all abandoned Itanium years ago.
When Oracle bought Sun Microsystems in April 2009 and closed the deal in January 2010, Oracle and HP were suddenly in contention when they had been allies for the most part for 25 years. That HP chose former SAP co-CEO Leo Apotheker as its CEO when it fired Mark Hurd didn't help smooth over issues with Oracle, and that Oracle hired Hurd to be its co-president didn't help either.
Oracle might well have been perfectly happy with the Plan A scenario above had it not bought Sun Microsystems and become a Unix and Linux system competitor to HP. Since Oracle said it was going to stop development on its software for Itanium chips in March 2011 – and HP-UX is the only operating system that is basically left on the processor, with Red Hat Linux 6 not available on current or future Itanium chips and Windows Server 8 not going to be ported to them, either – what looked like Plan A for HP, to push forward with the "Poulson" and "Kittson" Itaniums and extend the life of the Integrity and Superdome lines to at least 2016 and beyond, has turned into something more like Plan B.
Oracle's actions have had a dramatic and swift effect on HP's Itanium sales, perhaps almost as steep as the decline that HP would have predicted if Intel and HP had come out and said Itanium was being mothballed.
Oracle and HP have already said in public the arguments they will make in court.
Oracle will contend that HP knew Intel didn't want to continue Itanium development and that its long-term plan was for Xeons to dominate the server base and that Oracle, as a key ISV, and its customers should have been privy to such information. But all server processor roadmaps are thin, at least the ones the outside world sees, and customers are almost never in the loop on what is going on - the documents leaked by Oracle make this all too clear.
The Oracle Sparc roadmap goes no further than Sparc M6 at the moment in 2015, and IBM's Power8, due perhaps in 2014, is not exactly fleshed out. Intel is only talking very generally about its own Xeon chips in the future, and AMD is saying very little about future Opterons, too.
HP will argue that Intel stands behind the current Itanium roadmap out to Kittson and that its settlement agreement with Oracle regarding the hiring of Hurd committed Oracle to continue to provide support of its software on future Itanium products. It would not be surprising if HP's lawyers try to argue that Oracle's moves to stop development of database, middleware, and application software on the Itanium chip actually caused HP economic damage.
That's the thing about lawyers and trials. You can argue anything, just like you can sue for anything. But going before a judge and a jury is a bit like gambling with the future, perhaps even more than IT giants like HP, Oracle, and Intel are doing behind our backs all the time. It is hard to say what Judge James Kleinberg will do in the first phase of the trial, when he will decide whether or not HP and Oracle had an Itanium development contract, or what a jury in Santa Clara County Superior Court will decide in awarding damages if the judge says there was a contract.

Muferiat Kamil (left), a newly appointed head of the newly established Ministry of Peace with Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD), on Thursday, October 18, 2018.
Muferiat Kamil (left), a newly appointed head of the newly established Ministry of Peace, which will oversee the Information Network Security Agency and the National Intelligence & Security Service among six other federal agencies, left her position as speaker of parliament to assume her new post last Tuesday, October 16, 2018.
Tagesse Chafo, former minister of Public Service & Human Resources, replaced her as Speaker last Thursday. He is only the third speaker to be elected in the current term; Muferiat only held the position for six months. Before her, Abadula Gemeda served in the post of speaker from 2010 until his retirement last April. Parliament, which returned from a three-month recess in October, also approved the motion presented by President Mulatu Teshome (PhD) following a parliamentary address by the Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed (PhD), on Thursday, October 18, 2018.
The President’s address to the joint session of the legislative bodies stressed the alarming breakdown of law and order in various regions. He also underscored the need to address the negatively skewed balance of accounts and amending anti-terrorism, media and charities and societies laws. The Prime Minister answered questions from MPs on the motions presented, which ranged from the use of social media, adjustment of pay scales for civil servants to conflicts and displacements of people. The highlight was his explanation of the event a couple of weeks ago when soldiers marched to the Prime Minister’s Office, which he said was carried out with ill-intent to abort current reforms. The motion was passed by parliament, as were the appointments of Abiy’s reshuffled cabinet, half of which is now made up of women, and restructured federal institutions.

BREAKING NEWS: Court Grants Cert in Phoebe Putney; What Will Happen in North Carolina Dentists?
This morning the Court granted certiorari in Federal Trade Commission v. Phoebe Putney Health, No. 11-1160, on appeal from an execrable pair of opinions in the Eleventh Circuit and the Middle District of Georgia.
At issue is a local hospital merger that would give the acquiror 100% in its county and upwards of 90% in a larger multi-county area of rural southern Georgia. The Commission’s otherwise slam-dunk 13(b) action was stymied, however, because the merger received an extremely cursory, purely formal and after-the-fact rubber-stamp from a largely inactive county hospital commission created under a 1941 Georgia statute. Primarily at issue was whether the state of Georgia had “clearly articulated” its intention that the local commission would act in some way to restrain trade. Prior Eleventh Circuit authority found the local hospital commissions to be “political subdivisions” and, as such, to enjoy state action immunity under Town of Hallie so long as there was “clear articulation.” Clear articulation in turn depends on whether a restraint of trade is a “foreseeable” consequence of action taken by the state as sovereign. The courts below said such a restraint is foreseeable, but for no more reason that the 1941 state statute gave these local commissions general corporate powers, including the power to acquire hospitals.
I personally find this all utterly absurd.
● The opinion will offer the Court’s first thoughts on the state action immunity in just over twenty years. Will the new opinion bear the upbeat, pro-enforcement optimism of Ticor, or the rather defeatist, what-good-would-enforcement-do cynicism of City of Columbia?
● The parties’ two opening briefs — a brief for the Commission by the Solicitor General, and the defense reply written by former SG Seth Waxman — are both really, really good, and they pose the issues in fairly starkly different terms. The SG’s brief predictably sets out a workmanlike (and, to me, persuasive) demonstration of a circuit split. But the brief in opposition takes a surprisingly different approach. Instead of simply taking issue with the purported circuit split demonstration, Mr. Waxman argues that the Commission simply misperceives the issue. The brief begins by saying that if the Eleventh Circuit held, as the Commission argues, that a mere grant of “general corporate powers” is sufficient to establish “clear articulation,” then the Eleventh Circuit was wrong and should be reversed. Rather, says Mr. Waxman, the Eleventh Circuit found there to be more here than just “general corporate powers.” That seemed a rather striking gambit to me, as the grant of powers, in my mind, contains very little except the power to make contracts and buy things and so on.
● The technical issue of state action immunity before the Court goes to the deepest, theoretical foundations in political philosophy or political economy on which the state action doctrine depends. Whether it is enough for a state to create a local commission with the power to acquire private businesses goes to the most basic questions in the ordering of our economic society. We have a commitment to competition as a policy to which we once expressed deep fealty; the question here is how much we still care about it.
● And what will happen in In re North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners? That case, currently on appeal to the Fourth Circuit from the Commission’s finding of liability, raises different technical issues, but goes to the same broader problems of political economy. Should a state really be allowed to just give a bunch of essentially private persons license to constrain their markets? If the Court is interested in Phoebe Putney, maybe it will take an interest in North Carolina Dental as well.

This is the debut album from new U.S. progressive rock outfit Potter’s Daughter, and I have to says it’s a truly delightful album too. It’s also very different to the normal fare that passes for Prog nowadays, this album has melodies – memorable, hummable ones at that – along with a degree of jazz and it has a swing to it that makes The Blind Side different and helps it to stand out from the rest.
Opening with a gentle piano motif and some softly strummed acoustic guitar this instantly takes you off into a dreamy soft and enticing piece of music with some fine electric guitar floating over the top, sounding not unlike Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays at their finest. Yes indeed, this is very classy stuff and this Memento sets things up in a very chilled yet pleasurable manner.
Next up is It’s Summer Night which has vocals that sound very unusual as they are double tracked and somewhat sinister, but they still compel one to listen to them. I can’t think of any artist to whom this song sounds similar, but it has a soaring guitar line that takes the song somewhere else. Despite being a short piece it’s very good, bookended by the vocals and subtle piano motifs. Movement IV follows, rippling piano coursing through it alongside some gentle drumming in support. This again has more jazz stylings to it before another fine guitar break is introduced. As the guitarist shreds away the strength of the piece is clearly shown, another winner. To My Love features more sweet vocals and a gentle lilt, almost folksy in style but very accomplished with some more fine guitar work throughout from Amit Chatterjee. It’s an arrangement of the 4th movement of the 1st piano sonata by Alberta Ginastera (whose Toccata was covered by ELP). Again its lovely melodies are well suited to the band and it is a well crafted arrangement indeed.
I think it is fair to say that this album certainly impresses with its delicate understated playing and its fine epic and fiery guitar work from the Amit Chatterjee (surely a name to watch for in coming years), it’s a sheer joy to listen to his fine fluid playing throughout. The album continues with another excellent track Silver Moon, the longest here, which opens with another soaring lead guitar line and some sweet piano playing in harmony and in tandem with the guitar, giving more echoes of Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays. Delicate percussion and the ever subtle bass work holds it all together. Having a liking for jazz certainly helps define this albums stature as it is a truly wonderful album to behold, in an age when most prog discussions merely hark back to the 1970s it’s great to hear something a little different that takes the genre forward in another route, a road less travelled even. This piece has more supporting piano and sympathetic percussion and sensitive, unobtrusive bass playing too. It’s wonderful to hear such creativity and understatement in this elegant music, which deserves a huge audience.
I’m finding lots of new progressively influenced music outside of the mainstream nowadays, in fact there is so much new stuff coming out that it is impossible to keep up with it all. Bandcamp is an excellent forum in which to seek and discover new music such as this, and also with the likes of Bad Elephant Music now using Bandcamp to offer their wares I certainly recommend that prog fans look at these places as it’s where new stuff is emerging, waiting to be found.
Sure On This Shining Night has a festive tone to it, although it’s not a Christmas song as such, but it has that vibe to it somehow. It also has more superb guitar work woven throughout. The rest of the album follows a similar tone to what I’ve already mentioned and one thing is for sure, Potter’s Daughter have crafted an album of real grace and beauty here, an album that all prog fans should give a listen to as it’s an album that benefits from frequent playing.
A fine contender for an album of the year list, The Blind Side is an album that I heartily endorse, and I think that most folks will enjoy, especially if you like light jazz type music too. Immaculately produced and sounding beautiful, exemplary in fact. Very highly recommended.

You. Mirror appearing in front of me.
Reflection questioning my thoughts; indulging my desires.
You, my fears. You, my hopes.
You have a beautiful voice. Inspiring to read.

Mallory Palmer was born in Chagrin Falls, OH. This small town, near Cleveland, was a picturesque place to grow up, and on balance her early childhood was both uneventful and reasonably stable. Her parents, William and Samantha Palmer, raised her as an only child in a humble home set against the woods where she would often spend her days. There was very little indication that there was anything peculiar about her at all until she was much older.
Not long after she had received her driver's license Mallory, now almost always going by "Mal", was involved in a fairly horrific accident. Or at least she would have been. When he car was forced off the road by a drunk driver it went careening down into a small ravine below. She remembered being absolutely certain the impact would take her life, closing her eyes and bracing for it, and counting what seemed like an eternity of instants as the ground fell out from under her. Only, this was not to be. In the next moment she was at home, and had fallen into her own bed. Terrified, and convinced she was losing her mind, it was not until she returned to the scene of the crash that the reality of what transpired really sunk in for her.
In the following months, this primary incident seemed to stem others. She was having more and more trouble keeping track of herself. This experience was beyond bewildering, and the consistency of our surroundings is something most humans take for granted. She would travel without warning from one place to the next, instantaneously. For a while this was manageable. People have a tendency to believe their eyes are playing tricks on them far more often than the believe they witnessed the incredible. With some effort she could do this at will, but more often it seemed she was at this new power's mercy.
The breaking point finally came in the last days of her junior year of high school. She was working a part time job at gas station just off the main road. It was a good fit for her because often no one was around. It made concealing any "incidents", as she had come to think of them, easier to manage. One evening, just before her night shift replacement arrived the store was robbed. A man in a mask held a gun across the counter and threatened her. She was panicked, and even more so that in this one moment where she, more than anything, wanted to disappear, she could not. Frozen and unable to speak the man started shouting and waving the gun. She couldn't muster the presence of mind to even make out his words.
That was the most of the first "event", as PRIMUS officials would later refer to it. Mal's memory of this is too fragmented to sort out the details in any sensible pattern but in a few fractions of a second the gas station and everything in it ceased to be. The Fire Department and Chagrin Falls Police arrived on the scene and were simply beside themselves. What had once been the corner Quick Stop Station was now a crater in the broken pavement. There was nothing left. PRIMUS agents were immediately alerted and an investigation team was dispatched via protocol. They later found Mallory hiding in the nearby woods in a state of shock.
Later investigation would show what actually happened. In her panic, Mallory had produced a violent singularity. It was chalked up to a latent self defense instinct. Thankfully it was too unstable to remain open for long, but even for it's duration, estimated at nine tenths of a second, it had absorbed and atomized every object on the premises, including her unfortunate assailant. Official reports in Chagrin Falls describe a safety failure that led to a explosion that cost the lives of Mallory Palmer and an unidentified customer. There was a school wide memorial service the following weekend for Mal. She would later watch the video from her room in PRIMUS custody.
This incident caused many logistical problems. The initial cover-up was bad enough, and if it weren't for the extenuating circumstances the amount of force used to dispatch Mallory's attacker might have landed her with criminal charges. But this was not the most pressing matter at hand. Mal's abilities were both obscenely dangerous and resided in the hands of a young, not yet mature girl who was both terrified and unreliable at controlling them. Several backroom conversations involved the use of drugs to keep the girl in a medical coma merely to avert the risk that this happen again. If she could not be contained she was literally a threat to well being of every man, woman, and child on the planet. These debates went on for sometime while Mallory was kept sedated.
Eventually it was decided that despite the danger, there was no means to justify that draconian a method of containment. PRIMUS scientists spent nearly six months pouring over her with every test they could devise. Isolating her mutation came early, finding a solution to inhibiting it was a much more strenuous process. Eventually on site engineers developed a series of dampening devices to inhibit the signals in her nervous system that activated her abilities. These devices remain the primary function of her power armor to this day. It houses no weapon systems and diverts almost all of its systems to the purpose of keeping Mallory from losing control. The consequences of its failure could be catastrophic. There were talks to install fail safe systems that were quite controversial. If the control devices failed, one administrator argued, it might be regrettably necessary to have a means to remotely terminate the subject. The results of this argument are undisclosed, as are much of the proceedings that followed her discovery.
With the prototype control systems in place, Mallory was revived. Furious and confused she demanded to be allowed to speak to her parents. After nearly a week's hunger strike she was allowed to do so. The Palmers, having believed their child dead for over four months, were both relieved and outraged beyond the point the words can be used to describe. They threatened every form of legal avenue available to them to get their daughter back. What followed were a series of meetings explaining the situation all parties now found themselves in. In the end, it was Mallory herself that finally brought the two sides together. She admitted she understood the danger and agreed to remain under PRIMUS supervision. The department of Risk Management assigned her a case worker and she was made an official PRIMUS asset.
This was exceedingly boring at first. Mostly her life was isolating and uneventful. However, through the contacts she made with other heroes and the side by side work she came to do with PRIMUS researchers, over time she came to both understand and find some mastery over her abilities. When she came of age she applied for registry as a proper hero, wishing to work alongside those people who had inspired. Though she is indeed a special case, and there remains persons of interest watching over her activities on a nearly constant basis her progression over the years has won her some autonomy. She is still required to report her movements to PRIMUS agents and maintain close contact with them on her condition, including weekly reports and any, even the most insignificant "incidents" to the RM department, but her life is slowly starting to feel like her own again.
Her most recent assignment has been Millennium City. It was by her own request. She wished to be involved where she felt she could be most useful. Compared to where she grew up, the the limiting confines of PRIMUS labs and personnel facilities, the expansive and vibrant environment of its streets and gargantuan buildings is overwhelming. These are the first days of her career but she's not out to make a name for herself. Officially speaking, Mallory Palmer is dead, she's identified only by her PRIMUS codename, and now her registered hero moniker, Amateria.
Amateria's powers seems to stem from an ability to manipulate the still rather mysterious Higgs field. Though it's been arduously studied, PRIMUS researchers have yet to isolate how she manages to effect the field at all, but through it, as a conduit of sorts, she can alter how much mass is imbued in an object via the field, altering it's physical properties, especially gravity, immensely. What is known is that the cells in her body contain an extra organelle that appears to facilitate this process. Appearing much like mitochondria, these mysteries organic constructs come alive with each use of her abilities.
It is by this method that she is able to push the boundaries of particles mass to extreme quantities and fold the space around them in upon themselves to generate singularities. Doing so in the presence of others requires a lot of concentration as it's not enough to manipulate the singularity itself, she must maintain the gravitational integrity of the environment surrounding it or risk unwanted objects or persons crossing the event horizon and escalating the strength of the black hole. With proper control these singularities will evaporate when the principle mass that fuels them subsides. This too is a function of the Higgs field. In theory, it may be possible for Amateria to use this power to destabilize a naturally occurring black hole but research suggests that the parameters for such a test are untenable.
There can be no understating the danger of a black hole, despite the relative size of Amateria's singularities, the principle physics remains the same. Once an object crosses the event horizon there is no coming out. The molecular structure of the object will be broken down into an increasingly smaller stream of particles approaching the singularity where the mass is infinitely dense. Beyond this point space-time becomes so warped that attempting to evade this is futile because the singularity is already in the objects future. There is no escape.
Using the tendency of extreme gravity to alter the curvature of space time to bend or fold the space around her to move objects, often herself, instaneously. She doesn't ever accelerate and to the observer this appears much like teleportation or an extreme burst of speed. Joining two very distant points of space is very difficult to achieve as its less intuitive to the human brain than a jump to a space one can see. This is likely a mental limitation rather than a true lack of ability. One very complicated problem that diminishes the practicality of long distance wormhole travel is that the relative speed of her movement compared to her surroundings would often mean that an instantaneous journey for Amateria would be an exceedingly long time for everyone else. In theory if it were possible to create a bridge to the nearest star system, when she returned it would likely be a different decade than the one she left. Studies in PRIMUS labs have shown that her experience of time is often much less than those around her while exercising her abilities. Much like time passes a scant few microseconds slower at the top floor of a skyscraper compared to the ground floor. Calculations suggest that due to frequent use of this power she may be four full months younger than her age as calculated by her birth date.
One major consequence of her abilities is that when she deploys a defensive singularity in close proximity to her person, the effect this has on the space around her is warping to such a degree that the time experienced on her end compared to that of the outside observer is incredibly distinct. Even objects travelling at incredibly high speeds appear to slow to a crawl at they approach the singularity, giving her the appearance of incredible reaction speed and natural reflexes. In reality her reflexes are entirely human but she literally makes more time for herself in which to have them.
Physics Education - In an effort to better understand herself and her abilities on an intellectual level, Mallory has undergone an extensive amount of schooling while working with PRIMUS. She has received a bachelor's degree of science with a concentration on Astrophysics.
Acrobatics - Despite the potency of her abilities, without the natural invulnerability some heroes are blessed with, her remarkable frail human frame requires a good deal of both cunning and agility to protect. She spends a good deal of time training to remain fit enough to keep up with the rigors of her work.
Musical Talent - Due to an enormous period of time in her life when she was isolated from socializing, Mallory took up the violin as a hobby. Her early days of screeching mistakes had no one to bother. Now after a few years of practice, she's not a master but an impressive amateur.
PRIMUS Bio-Dampening Armor - Amateria's attire while engaged in her duties appears very much like a supportive power armor of some type, the like that can supply the bearer with shields or extra ablative protection. And while, to a limited extent this is true it's primary function is actually debilitating. Due to the nature of Mallory's powers and the risk she poses to both herself and others around her, the nearly constant need to wear some kind of dampening device is central to her life. She can never go without it. At times she's considered looking into invasive surgery to see if such devices could be subdermally implanted just to give her the feeling of some normalcy while doing the most routine tasks like bathing. Thankfully there are compact forms of these devices she often uses while not on duty it is still a constant worry that her powers will take hold of her and not the other way around. The sensors throughout her armor try to monitor signals within her nervous system to allow for her to use her powers within a certain acceptable range.
PRIMUS RM Tracking Device - PRIMUS agents in the Risk Management department have mandated that for her authorization to work in the United States be permitted she must agree to remain under some extensive supervision. Both her armor and her miniature dampening devices are fitted with quantum entanglement tracking systems. These advanced pieces of hardware are necessary to maintain a read on where and when she is at all times.
PRIMUS Communicator - Functioning on a similar level as the tracking system, this advanced bit of hardware helps her maintain contact with PRIMUS even while under the most intense gravitational and spatial distortions.
Having spent much time in seclusion, and being somewhat awkward when it comes to socializing in general, Mallory doesn't leave much of a lasting impression. She actively tries not to. Most of her records are sealed, but those individuals with high level clearance within PRIMUS may very well have heard of her due to the high level of concern she's caused so many officials. She's an unfortunate case in this respect because she gives off the impression of someone who would have chosen a different life otherwise. Maybe she would have been a concert violinist in another life, but it was not in the cards. Though she occasionally receives some credit from individuals whom she's helped in her career she often does her best to avoid cameras and duck publicity.

I made this cute piece for my sister for Christmas. It’s “Sisters + Friends” from The Drawn Thread. It was a fast and easy stitch, and I got to try some nice finishing for it. It’s finished with a ladder stitch to a fabric backing.
I have done some sort of needlework since I was 10 years old, with the most prolific period for me being in my twenties. It was B.C. (before children), and I was early in my marriage and career. I belonged to the Monticello Needlearts Chapter of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America (even President for a year or two), and I enjoyed many different techniques. But once I had two children, my pace of stitching slowed substantially. Between working full time and raising two kids, there just wasn’t the time or energy at the end of the day.
Now, however, I have two teenagers who are pretty independent. With our move to Florida in autumn of 2017, one earning her driver’s license, and one having school and activities a short bike ride away, I suddenly had unexpected time on my hands. Around this same time, the National EGA began their EGA Stitch-a-long Facebook group. I joined and lurked that group for a time, but the bug hit me again, and soon I found myself rejoining EGA as a member-at-large. It was time to get stitching again!!!
After a few months as member-at-large, I started looking at the local EGA group. I found their Facebook group, went to one meeting, found the group super friendly and welcoming, and I soon transferred my membership to DuClay Chapter of the EGA. Between the national stitch-a-long group and stitching with my local chapter at least twice a month, I have refound my love of all things needlework.
With that, I am going to try to re-start this blog, focusing mainly on needlework and maybe other crafts here and there. I have *many* past pieces that I have not yet posted, so I will go back and post those in the coming months.
I love the annual Santa designs from Prairie Schooler. This piece was stitched as a round robin with a group of friends in real life and online, probably at least 15 years ago. This piece brings back a funny little memory . . . . When my youngest child was a baby & I was home on maternity leave, one of our cats brought a baby bird into the house and let it go still alive. When our dog Buddy spied the bird, he launched himself across the room at full speed and slammed into the wall. The force of him knocked this framed needlework and a glass lantern off of the wall, sending both crashing to the floor into a mass of broken glass. Meanwhile I was simultaneously trying to deal with a crying baby, a bird on the loose, and a frantic dog. It was a scene worthy of I Love Lucy. Eventually I caught the bird, calmed the dog, and cleaned up the glass. But 13 years later, I still haven’t replaced the glass in this frame. I really should replace it to protect the needlework. But it is a funny memory in hindsight.

As the nation continues it’s descent into the quagmire caused by the ruling All Progressives Congress, human capital development remains an integral if not important means of arresting the slide.
The People’s Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom state has been at the forefront of encouraging and developing the next generation of leaders in areas of empowerment and self sustenance. Sadly,the same can’t be said of the opposition APC in the state.
Recently, another youth in the state was empowered and encouraged by the state governor with the provision of state of the art photography equipment to aid his dreams. This is one of very many cases of human development by the PDP in the state.
The Umbrella Business Quest, also sponsored by the PDP through its Publicity Secretary Comr. Ini Ememobong, has set out to encourage youths with starter packs and financial incentives aimed at accelerating their independence thereby creating job opportunities by extension.
Sadly, the same can’t be said of the APC who’s only interest is sponsoring media attacks on the Governor and demarketing the state on every available tabloid.
I’m inclined to ask, can a party whose officials syphoned the Niger Delta Development Commission Christmas largesse for Akwa Ibom youths, a party that has shown such disdain for youths be trusted with running the affairs of Akwa Ibom state? A party who only see youths as good enough for political rallies, hatchet jobs and agents of lies, mischief, propaganda cannot and should not be entrusted with managing the affairs of this state. If they can’t impact the lives of youths in the state now, there’s certainly no guarantee that will happen if they manage to gain power in 2019.
I thought the management of NDDC would set up a committee for proper implementation of such funds, better still a committee to enquire about the money. But it is obvious he is ready to sacrifice the interest of Akwa Ibom youths to please his political allies.
Governor Udom Emmanuel has always been at the forefront of youth empowerment in the state as seen in his appointment of youths into sensitive positions in the state and other positions of leadership. He clearly has the interest of youths at heart and as such, deserves our support.
Our eyes are open now and we certainly won’t make the mistake made by 15million Nigerians in 2015 which the whole country is still reeling from effects.
I challenge anybody to show proof of any youth empowered or developed by any member of the opposition party in the state. I stand to be corrected.
Akwa Ibom Youths, the choice is ours to make. 2019 is upon us. One wrong turn and we could find ourselves starting from the bottom again and we really can’t afford that right now.
The future is ours to take!!!

CB300F great entry level street bike choice.
... the only better place to learn how to ride motorcycles is off-road and on an even smaller/lighter bike.
CB300F or even the CBR300R. Both brilliant entry level machines!
And Ninja 300. Very comfortable.
"The better you're prepared, the luckier you get".
I prefer the sport bike style, though I don't dislike cruisers. The issues I have with sport bikes though are the aggressive riding stance and the gas mileage.
You might also look into the sibling 300 Rebel that utilizes the same motor.
Echoing what's already been said, that's an awesome selection as a beginner bike. Similar to the other entry-level bikes (CB300R, Ninja 250/300/400, R3), you're going to have plenty of power... I have ridden a LOT of bikes, and my Ninja 250 puts perma-grin on my face every time I ride it.
An advantage at your weight, is that Honda tends to under-spring their smaller bikes, which is a problem for my 220-lb self, but not at all for you. I remember reading somewhere that the spring rates on many Hondas run in the range that would work for 150-lb race jockeys... but not so much for bigger folks. I know my superhawk was pretty squishy up front before I re-sprung it, and have been on some others which are similarly soft for someone my size. Again, this is actually an advantage for you.
What exactly is "very limited experience?"
Have you taken a class to learn to ride a motorcycle? Recently?
If yes, then continue your search.
If no, then let's get that out of the way before you go motorcycle shopping.
It will be a lot less expensive to take the course twice than to buy a bike and then find out you want a different bike. Of course that will probably happen anyway, but if you take the course first, you will at least have a better chance of getting a bike you will be happy with for a while.
And if you take the course first, you will be less likely to drop your own bike. It does not take much of a drop to do more damage than the cost of taking the course a second time.
And taking the course multiple times will accelerate your learning.
I took BRC 1 almost 20 years ago but did not get a bike at the time. I re-took the course when I got a bike about three years ago and I took BRC 2. And I want to take the advanced rider course. I could go back and re-take BRC 1 a third time and I would benefit from the experience.

Hassall believes that the growth in the use of PPIs occurred because extensive direct-to-consumer advertising for PPIs and similar medications for adults popularized the term “acid reflux.” So it made sense to parents that these drugs would provide a solution for a seemingly intractable problem. And for doctors, calling the problem GERD and prescribing a PPI to the infant was a way to at least soothe the parents.
The problem with that is that randomized controlled trialsprovide no evidence that PPIs are better than placebos for difficult infants without objective evidence of GERD. PPIs cost money, and provide no benefit when prescribed beyond a severely ill population. So what should a parent do if their child has the symptoms of acid reflux?
During the birth process a misalignment can occur in the upper neck that will change the communication between the brain and the body leading to a variety of different problems, including acid reflux. Several medical doctors from Europe have done extensive research into upper neck problems in newborns and how that relates to the health of children. For instance, Dr. Godfrey Gutmann, a German medical researcher was looking into the connection all the way back to the 1960's... in 1987 Dr. Gutmann published his research linking the upper neck to problems ranging from acid reflux to scoliosis, ear infections, torticollis, colic and many other common childhood conditions. Gutmann found over 80% of the over 1000 infants in his study had problems in the upper neck that needed to be addressed! Birth trauma was the most common cause. Forceps delivery, vacuum extraction and even just normal birthing methods with a woman flat on her back rather than in the standing position where gravity can work, can be an extremely traumatic experience for the head and neck of a newborn. Upper neck misalignments can be corrected in babies safely, gently and effectively with an upper cervical chiropractic approach such as NUCCA. If you have a child that’s been diagnosed with acid reflux, before considering giving medication to your baby have their upper neck evaluated for a traumatic birth injury. You can look for the cause of the problem rather than just covering up the symptoms.

Video Games have become a huge part of our culture. You can’t take two steps in a shopping mall or department store without seeing something related to video games. The video game market is full of different kinds of games such as the first person shooter. However, one genre that is probably more responsible for the success of video games than any other is the RPG. Video game RPG’s (Role Playing Games) are among the best-selling titles across every platform, and in some cases have become a cultural phenomenon. Without further ado, we present the top ten video game RPG’s.
There were RPG video games before Ultima, but not many, and the Ultima franchise is still widely considered one of the greatest video game franchises in history. Ultima creator Lord British managed to take the table top role playing game and put it on computer providing players with and surprisingly immersive game play experience considering the technology of the time.
Where Ultima provided table top rpg players with a computer game, what Final Fantasy I did was bring the video game RPG to the masses. This title brought the RPG out of the shadows and into the lime light spawning a series of sequels, two MMORPG’s and a vast amount of copycat titles. The one reason why it is not higher on this list is that since its release the video game RPG has evolved and grown beyond the simple graphic and game play of this beloved title.
Might and Magic is not on this list because of a singular game or amazing breakthrough because for the most part the Might and Magic series was above average in all aspects. The reason Might and Magic shows up on this list is because of how many games this franchise spawned. Ranging from the standard rpg to games based on strategy and tactics Might and Magic was a massive franchise that sold well and provided solid game play. No single title deserves much credit for revolutionizing video games or rpg’s but as a whole the franchise deserves to be recognized.
You can’t discuss video game RPG’s without discussing the MMORPG as well. While MMORPG’s probably deserve their own top ten list, Everquest belongs here for being the first MMORPG to become so widely spread. At one time Everquest was so popular that you could order pizza from Pizza hut while in the game. As with all things Everquest eventually fell from the top spot, but it deserves a place on this list for being one of the first big MMORPG’s.
Of all the games that made this list, Fable was the hardest one to place. Fable had a massive amount of hype surrounding it as the next big thing in the RPG genre. In fact some people were claiming that it would replace Final Fantasy VII as the greatest RPG of all time, but upon its release it was a big disappointment and failed to live up to the expectations. The reason it deserves a place on this list however, is that it was the first game that gave you complete freedom of choice. You could be a good guy, a bad guy, or both. You could take on quests in full gear or completely naked, and perhaps best of all you could kick chickens!

The Generation IV gas-cooled fast reactor (GCFR) is intended to have a closed fuel cycle: During irradiation enough fissile material is produced to allow refueling of the same reactor, adding only fertile material. This is the well-known "zero breeding gain" objective. In this paper a theoretical framework is derived to track compositional changes of the fuel during irradiation, cooldown, and reprocessing, in order to calculate the reactivity of the new fuel compared to the original fuel material. Using first-order perturbation theory, the effect of variations of the initial fuel composition on the reprocessed material and breeding gain can be calculated. The theory is applied to the fuel cycle of a 600 MW(thermal) GCFR. The result is that the change of material composition during cooldown has a nonnegligible effect on the breeding gain. A truly closed fuel cycle can be obtained if the reprocessing efficiency is high enough (<1% loss). If this high efficiency cannot be obtained, adding a small amount of minor actinides (Np, Am, Cm) to the new fuel results in a zero breeding gain. Perturbation theory provides a powerful tool to estimate the effects of changing fuel cycle parameters.

Fathom Events is bringing Diamond and Silk to the big screen for a one-night screening of their new documentary Dummycrats on October 15. The film chronicles the duo as they go on a journey for truth, confronting the political antics of the left to get answers the American people deserve – as only Diamond and Silk can.
Dummycrats documents Diamond and Silk’s journey across America to reveal the hypocrisy of big government-loving politicians on the left. With their boots on the ground, Diamond and Silk scour California in search of Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi. Unable to find the answers the American people need, the ladies travel to D.C. They send Kyle Olson of The American Mirror (often featured on Drudge) to El Paso to uncover the dangers that come with open borders to reveal how the Democrats put the interests of lawbreakers above those of American citizens.
ABOUT Diamond and Silk: Diamond and Silk are biological sisters from North Carolina standing with the silent majority. They are voicing their opinions about media bias, political babble, and repetitive political tactics that they feel the average American is tired of being subjected to. Diamond and Silk are public figures and speakers, Internet sensations, radio and TV personalities… and President Trump’s most outspoken and loyal supporters.

This method is applicable to Volume One of the BCA, which is for Class 2 to 9 buildings not houses and sheds. This is fortunate because Volume One can often seem to be a very complex document as there is so much information and it does not appear to be in any logical sequence to facilitate design or construction. Most of us are process orientated and when something lacks logical structure, it becomes more complicated. This is why the “ABC of the BCA” helps. It structures the application of the BCA into a logical process that we can all remember and apply.
Firstly, you need to know that the BCA is broken up into 10 Sections, and listed from A to J. Do you know the title of each of these Sections? No, don’t look in the book. Do you know what they are from memory?
If you can’t answer that, then this is your first bit of homework: learn these titles, and know them by heart. If I ask you to name ‘Section E’ of the BCA, you should be able to say: ‘Services and Equipment’. Now I didn’t look. I know it by heart.
I have prepared this simple A to J list for you to make it easier.
Once you have done your homework, you should now know about a quarter of the “ABC to the BCA”.
This is on the job training. Next time you have a BCA question, think back to the section titles starting from A, and find the heading that best relates to the subject at hand. And do this without the book. Now, go to that Section and learn the Parts of that Section. There is only a maximum of five parts to each Section so they are not hard to remember. If you keep doing this every time you need to apply the BCA, you will soon find you are going straight to the relevant Part not just the Section.
I have by no means perfected this ability, but whenever I am asked a question related to the BCA, I come very close to the right clause most the time. Stage 3 is when you start to learn the actual clause numbers and headings of the clauses, and you may even begin to remember what the clauses actually say. This is also a time when you seriously consider whether you might need to start seeing a psychologist.
Seriously though, it is amazing how much time you can save by applying this simple technique. Even by just doing Stages 1 and 2, you will actually find that over time, you will move naturally through Stage 3 with little effort. It is really that simple. You just have to stay aware every time you need to apply the BCA.
For example, you might have a question about fire rated doors. Your mind should immediately start working through the method. Like this: “Section C Fire Resistance, Part C3 Protection of Openings”. There are only 17 clauses in Part C3 so you should be well on your way to finding the answer you need. What I am trying to show is that if you have a structure in your mind that you can quickly follow, it will point you in the right direction.
Now I understand you have not done all the homework or training just yet, but I want you to imagine you are standing outside your workplace, or any another building, and you are about to walk through it. Take a look at the structure and the features of the building, and think about how you would apply the BCA.
Now if I were you, this is the process that would be going through my mind. Please note, this will not be perfect, as I am not using the book but simply my memory and the “ABC of the BCA” method.
What is the Classification or Classifications of the building?
I will come back to this when I need it, but I know it is here.
What is the rise in stories?
Is the type of construction controlled by floor area or volume?
Is the building large isolated?
What parts of the building should have fire rating?
Is the travel distance to the exits okay?
Do I need fire isolated exits?
Are the exits constructed correctly?
Is there equitable access to and within, from the street and the carpark?
Is the building more than 500 m2?
Where are the hydrants and hose reels?
Smoke hazard management, is it required? How is it achieved?
Do I need a lift in this building?
Emergency lighting: Is this required?
Waterproofing: Basements, floors, walls, roofs, and wet areas.
Sanitary facilities: Is there enough? Don’t forget assessable and ambulant facilities.
Shower, baths and other facilities in special buildings like hospitals.
Room heights: Have they been achieved?
Natural light and ventilation: How is that achieved?
Are there cold rooms or safes in this building?
Does the building have an atrium?
Are we in a bushfire area?
Is this a theatre or public hall?
Does it have a stage?
Is this a public transport building?
I – It’s blank so forget it.
If you get the book out, it will be obvious that I have not thought of everything. However, you can see that by simply going through the alphabet from A to J, knowing what they all mean, and knowing their parts as well as the sections, I have been able to start to get a clear understanding of the building and where it sits with respect to compliance with the BCA.
Once you learn these ABC stages, you will start to naturally apply this method when you come across building questions while you do your job. You will also find you are automatically building these resources up in your own mind, allowing you to either apply or be able to quickly reference the BCA as needed.
So there you have it. Just remember the “ABC to the BCA” and apply it every day. In no time, you will be surprised what you know and how quickly you can apply it.

According to blackenterprise.com, Jahvaris Fulton, the older brother of slain Sanford, Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, recently graduated from Florida International University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology.
Fulton, 22, has made the best of his opportunities since losing his little brother to violence. Prior to graduating, Jahvaris served as a congressional intern for Florida Representative Frederica Wilson.
Wilson, a founder of 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project, also counts Fulton as a member who helped to encourage at-risk in Miami-Dade schools to stay in school.
This week, however, was all about celebrating Jahvaris’ success in higher academia. The exciting news was confirmed via Twitter, with many attendees tweeting their congrats.
God bless and keep him and the entire family.
He has a promising future ahead. I wish him well.
So do all of us here at GBN! Thank you for commenting!

It is time for Common Man to take an UnCommon stand!!!
We are the ones who make America great!!! Not "Washington DC"!!!
With the critical nature of a looming Congressional decision, a broad coalition of Tea Party organizations and leadership is launching the final push before a possible vote by the House. These events are being coordinated across the US and are aimed at communicating the frustration of the people while demanding the termination of this health bill legislation. While the DNC and the administration continue to obfuscate and confuse, this coalition is focused on getting activists involved prior to Pelosi's maneuvering.

This fascinating article from down under caught my eye. It’s not just people from North America and Europe who are discovering Panama and especially now that Panama has put the welcome mat out for folks from “friendly countries” with Panama, folks who’d like to begin new adventures in Panama.
This article by Trey Morrison appeared in BUSINESS INSIDER AUSTRALIA.
In 2008 my wife and I packed up our family, with two children under 6 and moved to Panama.
When we arrived we found out we were not the only ones. In fact, in the last five years our small expat community in Panama has transformed from a rural beach community to a populous expat haven with three new and thriving elementary schools teaming with expat children.
I’ve lived in boomtowns before, Atlanta, Key West, Waikiki, but I’d never seen anything like this. Naturally I wondered, “Why are all these families with young children leaving the U.S.?
Personally, I was tired of the rat race and wanted to slow down and enjoy life. I was sick of the bill of goods that was sold to me about needing to be a consumer to be happy. In addition I was concerned with the future of the U.S. economy and wanted to move some of my savings into foreign real estate. I also wanted to prepare my children for a globalized world.
Well, I discovered I was not the only one with these same desires.
In fact, if you poll your friends you will likely find some who are actively planning to leave the U.S. as well. Not just daydreaming but actually planning the move.
They are not alone. According to Bob Adams, CEO of New Global Initiatives, millions of households are planning to leave the U.S. Bob has been surveying Americans since 2005, and what he finds is enlightening.
He asked this question, “Are you planning to relocate to another nation for more than two years for reasons other than the requirements of the military, the government, or your job?” The number who answered yes topped 5% for those aged 25-34. That is one in 20 people and represents over 2 million people.
I have seen tremendous variety in the types of people relocating. Some are wealthy but most are middle class. Some are highly educated and some less so. The common thread that unites them is a search for opportunity and freedom.
That’s exactly what he did. In 2007, he sold his New York mansion and moved to Singapore with his young children because he believes the greatest opportunities in the future will be found outside of the U.S.
Gallup found the numbers responding that they would move permanently were down in all regions except North America and Europe. Perhaps not coincidentally, these two regions of the world have stalled economically while simultaneously their public debt levels have soared.
Many seeking opportunities are finding their options are greater outside the U.S.
A rising tide lifts all ships, and with U.S. economic growth anemic at best, countries with better economies suddenly look appealing.
Take Panama and Singapore for example: In Singapore the GDP growth for 2010 & 2011 was 9.8 per cent, and in Panama it was 9.1%. Compare that with 2.3% in the U.S. and you begin to get the picture.
In addition to seeking economic opportunities abroad, many of these new immigrants believe protecting their wealth from confiscatory governments by “offshoring” some portion of their assets just makes sense.
With Cyprus seizing assets directly from their citizens’ bank accounts, many fear more developed first world nations may not be far behind.
One way to protect their wealth is through direct ownership of foreign real estate. Whether it is farmland in Chile or beachfront property in Ecuador, where new beachfront condos sell for under $79,000, many believe that cheap foreign real estate in rapidly growing economies is an excellent “hedge” against sovereign risk back home.
The U.S. has long been considered the land of the free and it remains the number one destination for those who want to leave their countries, according to Gallup.
But according to the 2013 Heritage Index the U.S. is slipping in the freedom department. It is now considered less free than Chile, Hong Kong and even Singapore. Whether it’s perception or reality, many considering moving abroad believe their economic and personal freedoms are eroding.
I always laugh when guests ask if they can bring beer or build a fire on the beach. Of course they can. Their kids can also run around the pool and do flips and dives. It is these small everyday freedoms that make living abroad so pleasant.
While the numbers are small, they have been increasing steadily since 2005.
Why this trend will increase.
Besides opportunity and freedom people move abroad for dozens of other reasons. They may simply wish to learn a foreign language or have some adventure in their lives. They may move because they are tired of the rat race, or maybe they just want better weather and a lower cost of living.
Americans are moving abroad simply because they can. With a good internet connection it has never been easier for families to be mobile and make a living remotely. If people can make a living anywhere, why not live where the weather is good, the economy is growing and the government stays out of you hair?
One caveat for US citizens: you will never, ever get the US “out of your hair.” Like a bad case of crab lice, they aren’t going to go away. US? You owe wherever you go: there is no escape. But even so, the lifestyle in Panama is good, very good.

In the late 1800’s, Dana Buxton had built a small successful company distributing small notions. He was always trying out new business ideas and his most profitable one actually began with a small invention his wife designed. Dana lost his keys one day through a hole in his pants pocket. Julia decided that to prevent such a loss again she would make him a small leather pouch that would hold his keys. Family and friends showed an interest in acquiring one of these leather pouches for themselves. Due to the popularity of that small leather item a new business was born. Buxton Company was formally organized in 1898.
It became clear that the venture had quickly outgrown its space in the family home. A space was acquired, a factory equipped, and workers were hired to produce the families’ new leather personal necessaries. Over the years Buxton expanded their line to include wallets, billfolds and coin purses.
In the early 1900’s Buxton became a highly respected leather goods manufacturer recognized for their quality leather goods. Top rated leathers and skilled craftsmanship were synonymous with the Buxton name.
The company has always been quick to respond to the needs of the consumer. When the dollar bill was resized in 1929, Buxton became the first company to resize the men’s wallet to accommodate the change. Womens wallets got an upgrade in 1938 when they were offered in bright colors and took the design and style of a woman’s wallet in a whole new direction.
The Dopp brand was purchased in 1979. This gave the company another outlet for their personal leather goods line. Dopp was also known for their fine quality leathers and durable constructions and had been successful with it’s Dopp kits. A standard issue to US soldiers during WWI. This was a great match and allowed the company to serve the consumer with choice accessories for their personal needs.
The success of the first 100 years has led to even more innovative designs. In the past few years, Buxton has launched a handbag line as well as a new line of wallets that solves the issue of cyber-theft. Who knows what the next 100 years will bring?
Buxton’s commitment to fine craftsmanship continues today and will continue for the next one hundred and ten years.

Back from Southsea, Off to Italy & Beware of the Facebook Hackers!
Paul and I in Southsea!
Shopping for Vintage in The One Legged Jockey!
Hello every-one I’ve just got back from spending the weekend in Southsea with Paul. I’ve been on the hunt for a 1940s Fordora hat to go with my grey 40s suit and this weekend was a wonderful opportunity to spend some time together looking around the vintage fashion shops in and around Portsmouth. This Sunday was Hammersmith’s Vintage Fashion and Accessories Fair at the town hall and what with everything else I didn’t quite make it into London but rather unexpectedly I came across a black Fordora in Laura Ashley for the bargain sale price of £10. With a bit of a re-trim and some 1940s grey petersham I think we might be there! So keep watching and just for all you fashion followers out there I shall keep you posted with how I get on with re-trimming the Fordora!
When I last wrote I spoke in my blog about the year starting to take shape and I’m thrilled to report that I’ve been invited to return to Italy in October and to the town of Graffignana out side Milan for the towns 1940s commemorations. Last year Graffignana had guests from The Brazilian Embassy and this year it will be a representative from the Embassy of the United States. So there is much to look forward to when Paul and I meet up with all our Italian friends in Normandy this coming June for D-Day.
Rather concerning and it is important that I mention it I’ve just had my Facebook pages hacked so at the moment you wont be able to follow me on facebook. I know many off you over seas like to message me and do business that way but if you need to make contact please e-mail me. You can find my e-mail address at the bottom of my Home page and also by clicking onto the contact Fiona tab on the right hand side of this screen along with my phone number on this web-site. Sometimes just doing it the old fashioned way by picking up the telephone can be quicker than anything. Also you can speak to me direct. Facebook are currently investigating so I hope it wont be too long before we are back up and running!
I’ve got a very busy week this week with meetings, shows, a photo shoot scheduled for Tuesday in Winchmore Hill and I’m going to be back on Big Als Radio show on Friday for L&D radio. I’m also going to be performing in Shefford on Saturday for the Bedfordshire WI. So lot’s to do and plan for. With that in mind I will leave it hear tonight.

25 Crew Member Posts! Let's Celebrate - Challenge With Prizes To Win!
Hi everyone and welcome to this very special edition of Crew Member Wednesday!
Today is the 25ft post of my fabulous Art Crew (can't believe how fast that went) and that together with the fact that I just recently had some new products released with Carabelle Studio I thought would be a pretty good reason to celebrate!
Therefor I decided to do a fun little challenge for our lovely group members on the BMMAC Facebook page and give them the possibility to win some lovely prizes. Not a member yet? No worries, just go to the page and join the fun!
For this special blog post I have asked my Crew Members to create something in a size or shape that they would normally not use. We challenge you to do the same! How can you play along and have a chance of winning some great prizes?
Create something in an for you unusual shape or size using any of my products with Carabelle Studio. If you are not sure which products are mine then check them out here! Other than that you can use whatever you like as long as you don't use any stamps, stencils, embossing folders or dies from another brand.
Create a photo album with your name on the BMMAC Facebook page here (click on the "+ create album" button at the top right corner) and add your pictures.
Add a comment to your picture(s) telling us why this is different than usual for you.
You have until November 1, midnight CEST (Amsterdam time) to upload your pictures.
My crew and I will vote and pick 3 winners who can each choose one of my new stamp sets and 1 of my new stencils shown below.
Linda created a fun little bookmark. Linda works on all sizes but she not often uses different shapes to work on, she mostly works on square or rectangle backgrounds, so this shape was out of the box for her.
Hermien usually makes cards and decided to create a scrapbooking page with is quite a big bigger than the size she normally uses and she really had to step ut of her comfort zone here.
Marsha decided to go beyond the page and made an oval wall hanging which is definitely not an everyday shape to create on.
Karin also decided to go off the page and created on all sides of a wooden block.
Femke, who is a scrapbooker and usually creates on 12x12" or in a traveler note book went for a little square shaped mini album.
I just recently started to create smaller. And with smaller I mean tiny. I created a tiny little finger painted journal.
We hope you got inspired by our creations to do something out of the box yourself and play along!
It would be wonderful if you share and invite your friends to come and play with us too!
We are all very much looking forward to seeing what you create!
Thank you for stopping by and hopefully we will see you soon on BMMAC - Play Along With The Crew Members!!

I hope everything turns out well with the colhouse grown plants :) I too repotted some of my peyotes since the last soil mix I used wasn't working the way I'd hoped, so they started discoloring. 2 weeks after repotting the first plants started drying out completely. They were probably too young to have stressing situations like these, since they were only 9 months old, and repotted twice. Once from their breeding greenhouse, and this time to compensate for the wrong soil mix. Will not do that again soon..
Regarding the insecticide effect of moler, it would be very interesting to see how it affects the most infamous mealybugs that often reside in the soil.
I forgot to mention another interesting aspect of moler, the fossil layers. If you are lucky you'll find several million year old fossils captured in the moler deposits. I once found the imprint of a leaf looking exactly like a present time Ginkgo biloba leaf - it was quite fascinating to compare this relic with the "living fossil" Ginkgo trees growing in nearby gardens.
In addition to fossils, there are plenty of dark volcanic ash layers in the moler which can be seen as dark bands in the photo above.
Can you put some small plants together to create a cluster or will the roots get in each other way ?
Sure, you can cluster the plants (many Lophophora varieties are growing in clusters in the wild). And actually I recently planted clusters of peyote in a flower box on my balcony.

Meet The Bates Flags & Flagpoles LLC Crew.
We Just Celebrated 5 Years In Business!
Bates Flags & Flagpoles LLC, is a small, woman owned, residential business. Meet the crew!
Offer Only The Highest Quality, American Made Flag & Flagpole Products & Offer Full, Personalized Service.
Veteran & First Responder Discount!
Our way of saying "Thank You" for your services to our country and communities!
Bates Flags & Flagpoles LLC, is a small, woman owned and operated, residential-based business. Owner-Manager, Diana, is responsible for all inside operations of the business, including sales and quotes. Our Service Manager, Mario, sees to all services; repairs, installations and any flagpole service needs. We use the assistance of our subcontracted laborer's, Rob and Anthony, when needed for larger or more difficult projects.
The business was acquired in October 2013, when the previous owner decided to retire. It was decided to keep the name and make the business into a Limited Liability Company; dedicated to offering old fashioned, personal service and only the highest quality in flag and flagpole products. Our BATES Signature Flagpole was a staple part of the original Bates Flags; we upgraded the flagpole to include a flash collar and base; later, creating our own BATES II flagpole.
In the beginning, we operated the business part-time, servicing Charlotte County. Diana worked outside the home; Mario had his own small business.
In December 2014, Diana became ill, no longer able to work outside the home. Out of necessity, this part-time business now became a full-time business.
Calls began coming from other regions; jobs became more frequent through word-of-mouth, so the business began to grow. Bates Flags & Flagpoles LLC, though small, has been said to be the ONLY business, in the area, that performs flagpole repair services. From this, we have grown from a localized business, to servicing customers throughout the Sun Coast of Florida, to Naples.
Because we take pride in what we do, we added our own Limited Warranty on ALL of our Products & Services, in addition to any manufacturer warranties.
Our own "BATES" Brand of Commercial Grade Residential Flagpoles; our BATES Signature 20', and our BATES II 18' flagpole are Made By, and Exclusively Available through Bates Flags & Flagpoles, LLC., have become very popular for our residential customers' for their quality and elegant appearance.
All of our flag & flagpole products are Commercial Grade and made in the USA.
We recently added solar lights to our products list that are 'Assembled' in the USA, Keeping with our standards of 'American Made Products'.
We want the name "Bates Flags & Flagpoles, LLC" to be a name you can trust for our commitment to quality and service.

This is a quick drawing that took around 15 minutes to do.

It’s not bad. It is AMAZING!

I totally agree with your assessment of fun and intellectual events. I wish I hadn't wasted so much time in nightclubs when I was younger. I mean, they weren't even good nightclubs (Nashvilles, The Joint, Rum Jungle, repeat lol.) I was always a reader, but I never even thought to seek out events, or look for other readers to talk to. Like Rick said in his recap, reading was always insular for me. It's so cool that it's becoming something else.
What a great event! Wish we could have an evening like that around here... thanks for sharing.
You're welcome, JoAnn :) It was a wonderful event and hopefully encourages other bookish-peeps to seek out bookish events that they might otherwise miss.

Janet asked about fish and castor oil for stiff joints.
I have no information which says that castor oil is useful in that regard.
Omega 3 oils as found in fish and flax, on the other hand, are known to reduce inflammation by virtue of modulating production of the prostaglandins that are responsible for those effects.
Flax oil from either capsules or ground flax seed is effective. One ultra runner who has used flax for a number of years is Roy Pirrung of Sheboygan Wisconsin. Roy is a long distance specialist who has done the 155 mile Spartathlon run in Greece a number of times. Roy will run 140 mile weeks for months to prepare for such a major event. It is his experience that flax helps him avoid the inflammation which would otherwise come with such a heavy schedule.
Roy didn't discover this on his own, but was advised by Dr. Paul Stitt, President of Natural Ovens of Manitowoc, a company which makes breads, muffins, rolls, etc with an emphasis on healthy properties. Dr Stitt has studied the effects of flax in great detail and thought that Roy would benefit from it.

Macfarlane Gregory Anthony Mackey, who recorded as Exuma (18 February 1942 – 15 January 1997), was a Bahamian musician, known for his almost unclassifiable music: a strong mixture of carnival, junkanoo, calypso and ballad. In his early days in New York's Greenwich Village, Tony McKay (his self-given name) performed in small clubs and bars. Later, along with his then-partner and lifelong friend, Sally O'Brien, and several musician friends, he launched EXUMA - a seven-person group that toured and recorded albums, starting with Exuma: The Obeah Man in 1970 and ending with Rude Boy in 1986. His songs invoke influences from calypso, junkanoo, reggae, African music and folk music with his lyrics dealing heavily with Obeah. His backing band known only as the Junk Band has included names such as Sally O'Brien, Bogie, Lord Wellington, Villy, Mildred Vaney, Frankie Gearing, Diana Claudia Bunea, and his good friend Peppy Castro.

After creating an android studio project and add any widgets a warning show up "Warning: Hardcoded string "TestButton" , should use '@string' resource" . this is not error it's just warning many of platforms use string resource to separate between code and resource as string , images ... so let's see how to fix this .
android string resource is a simple xml file you can call it also a library , in this library you define all your string text and then in your android widget you just call a name to that text .
To add string resource , just add a new string inside your strings.xml file and write <string name="name">Value</string> , the name you can change it whatever you want it's the name you will call inside your android project and the Value is the display value , so let me make it easy for you if you call Name Mybutton and Value submit and you want change the Value of your button you only change Value and don't change Name .
click inside your widget button or whatever , then click proprieties next go to text delete default text and double click inside input text a suggestion list will show up and show you all the defined string source just click in your preferred string and that is it we are done .

I apologize for the long delay in updating you about Frank's recovery process. This has been a busy and stressful last few months for Frank and Erica, and also for me.
Frank's progress has continued to be, in the words of the medical team at Casa Colina, "variable." This means he has some good days and some bad. Some days he has extended periods of focus and lucidity (up to two hours on occasion) and seems very present to others, especially Erica and the kids. Other days are less so, and he has difficulty with nearly everything.
Frank still needs help with many daily tasks of living, such as dressing, grooming, eating, etc. He needs constant cues for many tasks and body movements. However, just yesterday Erica called to say he had eaten his whole lunch by himself, with a spoon. These small steps are encouraging and indicate that progress, however slow, can be made.
It has become quite apparent that Frank will need long-term, full-time care, although we have not ruled out the possibility of recovery beyond that stage. This also does not mean he cannot live at home. In fact, Erica is currently exploring possibilities to bring him home with live-in care. She has found, with great consistency, that Frank is much more responsive and cooperative when he is with his family.
Frank loves to hold 9-month-old Morgan in his arms. He loves to play with 3-year-old Diana, who crawls up on his lap and tickles him. They sing songs together and cuddle. He also enjoys the dogs very much, when he is able to be outside with them. These family times seem to have a very positive effect on Frank, and certainly on the family as well.
The transition from Casa Colina to a home setting also faces some considerable challenges. Frank will need a home that can accommodate his currently disabled needs. The living quarters need enough space to allow for those times when Frank needs quiet time away. Erica also hopes the home could be in a location and setting that would allow her to make a new life for their family under these circumstances.
Hopefully the right situation can be secured, and the Mullers can become a family again very soon. I will provide another update, hopefully in a shorter interval, as soon as there is significant news to share.

The filly is on track to take after her father, Uncaptured, who won six out of seven starts and four stakes.
In 2012, Mark Casse trained Uncaptured, a 2-year-old colt who won six of seven starts and four stakes.
This year, he trains Catherinethegreat, a 2-year-old daughter of Uncaptured who Friday won her second start and first stakes, rolling to a 4 1/4-length victory in the Grade 3, $150,000 Schuylerville on opening day at Saratoga.
Breaking on top from the rail under Jose Ortiz, Catherinethegreat opened up a one-length lead after running an opening half-mile in 44.64 seconds and kept on going, beating a slow-starting Nonna Madeline by 4 3/4 lengths. It was three-quarters of a length back to Congrats Gal in third.
While Uncaptured won his first start, Catherinethegreat finished second in her debut. She came back to win a maiden race at Gulfstream Park by 10 1/4 lengths, after ducking in at the break.
Catherinethegreat, under Jose Ortiz, broke straight on Friday while Nonna Madeline, the 3-2 favorite, broke slow. After running a quarter in 21.78 seconds and a half-mile in 44.64, Catherinethegreat had a length lead turning for home. Though Nonna Madeline had recovered to get in second at the top of the lane, she was no match for Catherinethegreat in the stretch.
Catherinethegreat, whom Oxley bought for $170,000 at the OBS spring sale, covered the six furlongs in 1:09.98 and returned $8.40 to win as the second choice.
Ortiz said he didn’t ask Catherinethegreat to be on the lead, but he wasn’t going to concede it.
Nonna Madeline, the 2-1 favorite, broke slowly out of the gate and was last early on. Velazquez advanced her into contention along the inside and was in striking position turning for home. But he said his filly got tired in the stretch.
“Not breaking, I had to use her a little bit the first part to get her where I wanted, then I sat and she sat well, but it was too much to make up,” Velazquez said.
Nonna Madeline held second by three-quarters of a length over Congrats Gal. It was 4 1/2 lengths back to Serengeti Empress who was followed, in order, by Lady Apple, Eyeinthesky, Fightress, Lonely Road, Trapping Pearl, and Blame the Frog.
Casse said he would probably point Catherinethegreat to the Grade 1 Spinaway here on Sept. 1.

Cen Mustafa is an editor at Nottingham Trent University who made the most of her opportunities at the University – both at her desk, and away from it.
Cen from an agency background and wanted to start making a positive impact on people instead of just selling things, which is she was attracted to higher education. Cen explains that the higher education sector has changed a lot in the past ten years and from a marketing standpoint it's exciting to be part of those changes.
"It’s such a tough market," adds Cen, "Everyone wants students’ attention, and everyone’s shouting, so we need to keep thinking of smarter ways to reach people. Marketing used to be a bit of an afterthought in universities: nowadays, it’s at the absolute forefront of things."
As editor, Cen feels she's here to drive innovation at Nottingham Trent University. "We’ve just delivered the Creative Room, which is a new bespoke thinking and planning space for our marketing teams," says Cen. "It was influenced by my time in the private sector, and I played a really key role in bringing together different stakeholders to make it happen. And that’s another example of what I love about NTU – collaborating across the community, and moving things forwards together. We work together to get results."
According to Cen, Nottingham Trent University supports an all-important work-life balance, which is everything from facilitating her professional development to giving her the flexibility and support when she needs it most.
"Working here is so much more than just a paycheque – you’ve got access to opportunities that can genuinely change your life," says Cen. "This year I’m taking part in the Aurora programme, which develops women leaders in higher education, and I recently helped to establish the Race, Equality and Cultural Heritage – or REACH – network, which embraces the rich cultural diversity of NTU’s colleague community. It helps to influence NTU’s policies and plans. The University listens to its experts, and there has been great buy-in at a senior level."
Cen's favourite part of Nottingham Trent University is the number of things she can take part in outside of the office. Cen runs the colleague and students’ basketball team; she's been involved with the Nottingham Trent University knitting club in support of Help the Aged; and she's always having bake-offs. "My banoffee pie is legendary!" says Cen.
"This is genuinely the nicest place I have ever worked," adds Cen. "I’ve done so much here, and met so many people – it really has been a fantastic journey."

Since 9/11, nearly 7,000 U.S. service members have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. More than 50,000 have been wounded - many have debilitating injuries and mental challenges that have changed their lives forever.
We may debate the rightness or wrongness of various engagements, but we know that freedom comes at a steep price - and we honor those who have secured it for us.
"There are many small things people can do that can make a world of difference," said Jerry Newberry, assistant adjutant general at the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW).
"Family members go through a long period of wondering, worrying and waiting," said Newberry. "But they still need to deal with the car breaking down, a child getting sick, a death in the family. If you know of such families, reach out to them."
Or write an e-mail or letter. The troops - particularly those recuperating in military hospitals - love receiving e-mails, letters and care packages. You can do so at amillionthanks.org.
Donate money. You can give to a variety of needed services for military members - or support the Red Cross to provide basic necessities to service members in military hospitals. Go to vfw.org and click on "Donate" or "Troop Support."
Or do something kind for a wounded vet. The Walter Reed National Military Center has a Facebook page that provides inspiration and ideas for brightening a wounded vet's day.
CNN offers some great suggestions.
Some disabled veterans are unable to drive. You can volunteer to give them a ride to their medical appointments at Disabled American Veterans (dav.org).
You can donate your frequent flyer miles so that family members can travel to the bedside of a hospitalized service member. That can be done through the Fisher House Foundation's Hero Miles Program (fisherhouse.org).
CNN reports that more than a third of the men and women who served in Iraq and Afghanistan "have or will experience post-traumatic stress disorder." The Puppies Behind Bars program trains companion dogs for veterans with PTSD. You can sponsor a dog at puppiesbehindbars.com.

Considering mentoring software? Well, pull up a seat—you’ve come to the right place. We’re here to walk you through the top points to consider as you perform your mentoring software comparison.
Organizations love mentoring because it fulfills multiple purposes. Depending upon your ultimate goals, there are several different formats that might fit your goals best.
Furthermore, mentoring is dynamic and the right model you have now may not be the best model down the road. Be sure your software can handle what your needs currently are, but also what you’ll need in the future as your program expands and grows.
The software you choose should support a wide variety of mentoring program formats, be able to change formats midstream, and run multiple formats at the same time for a blended mentoring format that can accomplish multiple goals.
Traditional mentoring: a mentee and mentor form a 1:1 relationship that typically lasts several months.
Flash mentoring: a mentee schedules individual sessions with a mentor, advisor, or coach, which is perfect for topical mentoring. Flash mentoring is also known as session-based mentoring.
Mentoring circles: this format focuses on specific topics or areas of learning. Mentoring circles have members that may come and go over time, but the circle lives on. It’s often used for knowledge sharing or providing a supportive environment for specific subsets of people.
Group mentoring: a mentor can provide expert information to a group of mentees, and the mentees can also provide knowledge and learning to each other.
Making it easy to connect mentees to mentors is a common reason organizations purchase mentoring software. Most mentoring software solutions will provide some level of participant matching using algorithms to determine great matches. But you’ll want to look below the surface and ask for more details.
The quality of the algorithm determines the quality of matches as well as the ability to control matches via rules. In this respect, software offerings vary widely and many offer a “one-size-fits-all” algorithm with little to no configurability.
You’ll also want to think about the kinds of matching you’ll require if you’re planning to use mentoring in multiple ways. The most common are self-matching and admin-matching. A leadership development program will require hand matching. But bulk matching (where the software helps the admin match hundreds of participants simultaneously) or mentor/mentee self-matching is best for programs with a large influx of participants.
Once mentees and mentors are connected, now what? Left completely unguided, mentoring relationships can start out strong but then falter. Providing some guidance throughout the mentorship is often needed. The level of structure and resources will vary program to program. Some programs thrive best with little structure. Others do best with structure that’s detailed enough to include weekly tasks and progress tracking. Don’t be afraid to experiment to determine the right level.
Do the plans provide goal-setting?
Can admins view progress along the way?
Can mentoring plans be changed at any time?
Reporting needs vary and evolve over time. Most organizations track overall program activity and outcomes. Assessing participation of particular demographics (such as a business unit or location) and connection progress is also common.
A good way to evaluate vendor reporting capability is to develop a list of program, connection, and participant questions you would like to have answers for. Undoubtedly, you’ll need to collect and assess different cuts of data over time. Make sure you assess the flexibility of your software’s underlying reporting engine, what data is collected, and how. An embedded survey tool will make your life much easier if you want participant feedback.
Look beyond your immediate needs and consider the future. There are two aspects of scalability to consider. The first is within a program. Many programs grow over time and you’ll need to adjust your program’s structure and format. Ensure the software solutions you’re considering have the built-in flexibility you need to make changes as you go.
The second aspect of scalability is the growth of mentoring across the organization. Many organizations run multiple tracks of mentoring for various groups or business objectives, such as general career development and reverse mentoring. Think about how many more participants or program tracks you may want in the future, and how easy and cost effective it’ll be to scale as you make your decision about your mentoring software provider.
Because mentoring programs vary so much, you’ll likely need help to effectively implement software, configure it to your needs, and tune your program over time. Ask what implementation services are offered and what each vendor’s support model is during and post implementation. Look for a software company that can provide excellent ongoing support such as trainings, advice, and best practices. You’ll also want a company that can serve as your partner and ongoing coach as you make your program the best it can be.
The way people use technology evolves over time. For many people, especially millennials, it’s simply more convenient to complete online tasks on a mobile device or tablet than to sit down at a desktop computer. There are two layers of mobile accessibility: making sure your software is mobile optimized and making sure your software is available via an app.
Mobile optimized content is designed to be consumed on a mobile device or tablet. The pages are easily navigable and digestible. The one downside is participants will still need to log in to your program anytime they access it via a browser.
That’s where mobile apps come in—participants only have to log in once, which increases convenience. Even better is the ability to enable push notifications. With an app, participants can be notified as soon as they receive a message, an invite, or when it’s time to complete a survey. The push notifications nudge participants into action, which increases productivity.
This list of mentoring software comparison features should give you a strong starting point when it comes to choosing your new partner. But most importantly, take careful account of what your own program requires and what will suit your organization as you’re deciding what you need. Best of luck with your search, and we hope you’ll consider contacting us to see whether Chronus is a good fit for you.

Sticking with getting around… Edmonton has some broken sidewalks and it takes too long to get them fixed. There currently aren’t any standards when it comes to permanent fixes.
We mentioned schools disappearing a couple of paragraphs back, and here’s the latest. As the Edmonton Public School Board contends with dwindling attendance at too many schools it still has in mature neighbourhoods, consolidation looks like the best bet to keep schools in our older neighbourhoods. Yes, that means larger student populations, but since the City, school boards and provincial government will very rarely be on the same page when it comes to planning our neighbourhoods and better balancing where people could live, it’s probably the best plan.
One thing everyone tends to agree on is spending money on hospitals (except if you’re Ralph Klein). Edmonton’s Misericordia Hospital is going to be using increased money from the recent provincial budget to build a new emergency room for west Edmonton.
Meanwhile… we still don’t know what the provincial government is going to do with Edmonton’s old remand centre. It’s sitting empty four years after our new one opened. One of the pressures here might be the arena district’s handful of new office towers creating a vacuum on downtown properties, which is leaving buildings like the remand centre searching for a potential new lease on life.
We wax sarcastically (a lot) about how our city’s heritage is often torn down or shipped to Fort Edmonton Park, but it’s good to have a reminder every now and again that we aren’t the only place facing the challenge of preserving the past while time marches on.
If you speak a language(s) other than English, you might be able to help out interpreting at the World Indigenous Games, hosted at the Enoch Cree Nation (to Edmonton’s west) this summer. The Games are looking for volunteers fluent in a number of languages, since participants will be coming from around the globe.
Thinking about running for city council or one of Edmonton’s school boards? All the information you need about how to file to run is now online. There’s also information on the new Edmonton Elections page about what you need to know as a voter, including maps of the ward you live in.
Candidates don’t have to have their official nominations in until September, but Dave Cournoyer’s got a good running tally of who’s already declared their intention to run for city council.
It doesn’t get anywhere near the attention our main school boards do, but the elections at Francophone schools will have some changes this year too.
Executive committee meets today, at 9:30 a.m. See the agenda online. Watch or listen live through the City’s streaming service.

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday that is celebrated in the United States, Canada, Liberia, and some of the Caribbean islands. It got its start as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and the preceding year. Similarly named festival holidays occur in other countries as well. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States, the second Monday of October in Canada, and around the same part of the year in other places. Thanksgiving has historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, but it has long been celebrated as a secular holiday as well.
Products in this category are inspired by the many aspects of the holiday and can take the form of suncatchers, standing figures, glass panels, or hot glass blown items.

Waterway's Cluster Storm and Typhoon 200 Jets are the same size and are interchangeable.
Waterway has redesigned the Cluster Storm Jet. You will notice the clips were enlarged to stop these jets from "popping" out. They were designed to fit in the existing body, however, they require a firm push to install them.
Snap-in Cluster Storm jet internals have been discontinued except a single directional model in a sterling silver color.

Impressions of Coltrane — Khan Jamal (SteepleChase) — 2 stars — Vibes master Jamal has the rhythm and lyricism to do justice to Coltrane’s beautiful, indelible melodies — “Naima,” “Afro-Blue” and “Impressions” among them. His fellow rarely-heard Philadelphian outcats, saxophonists Odean Pope and Byard Lancaster, each get guest tracks, and it’s good to hear them, but otherwise it’s all vibes-piano-bass-drums, a format I’m usually a sucker for, but I can’t get with this rhythm section. Pianist Farid Barron is capable and creative, but bassist Curtis Lundy has a very elastic sense of time and veteran drummer Edgar Bateman, 78 when this session was cut in January ’08, is to my ear always half a beat behind where I want to hear it, and I’m not syncing up with where it is. Jamal forebears, best on “One Up One Down.
), uninformed and inconclusive (not much like Webern played by anyone who *can* play Webern), but appreciate some of Braida’s unexpected and inexplicable moments, gestures, touches. . .
Sound Check — Jack Cortner Big Band featuring Marvin Stamm (JazzedMedia) — 3 stars — Thoroughly professional, polished, poised and brassy orchestral treatments of repertoire ranging from the Gershwin’s “Strike Up The Band” to Herbie Hancock’s “Cantaloupe Island.” Except for that one classic Blue Note boogaloo, the mood is polished-mellow. Stamm on trumpet and flugelhorn soars with confident flourishes, never far from the tunes. Cortner’s charts have unshakable Broadway-Hollywood studio DNA.
Judgement Day, Vol. 2 — Rashied Ali Quintet (Survival) — 4 stars — Urgency and the accomplishment to make it convincing leap off this cd by Coltrane’s most time-diffusing drummer. Here Ali’s in a relatively more conventional post-bop mode but he’s still plenty quick and cliché-free, with younger, all muscular true-believers (pianist Greg Murphy, particularly impressive bassist Joris Teepe, raging trumpeter Jumaane Smith and tenor saxophonist Lawrence Clark). Bright and refreshing, riding the edge, blessedly free of cliches. I haven’t heard Vol. 1.
It’s a gadget world — Ron Horton featuring Antonio Zambrini (abeat) — 4 stars — Horton has a very generous trumpet sound: ripe, rich, easy, with resources always in reserve to equal any occasion on original tunes which don’t restrict anyone’s interpretive freedom, plus the late Andrew Hill’s rarity “Laverne,” and drummer Paul Motian’s composition “9×9). Horton blows several shades of bluesiness — from a wail to abstraction to sober-sidedness; Italian pianist Zambir complements him nicely, bassist Ben Allison and drummer Tony Moreno hold a firm, detailed yet unintrusive beat. It”s all deceptively low key, and actually high involving.
Nice to hear that there is a new Ron Horton album, I have always loved his playing with Andrew Hill and on his own projects. Is the Jazz Composers Collective still a viable organization? I haven’t heard anything about them lately, but with formidable talent like Horton and Ben Allison, members made excellent music.
HM: According to its website, http://www.benallison.com/collective, the Jazz Composers Collective dissolved in 2005. No only Allison and Horton but also Frank Kimbrough, Michael Blake and Ted Nash, the other “composers in residence” have been very productive on their own projects, performances and recordings.
I like this feature, always interested in impressions of new releases. I was disappointed about the Braida CD (the label is nuscope, BTW), as I was thinking of getting it. nuscope generally does a nice job.
HM: I corrected that typo on NuScope — and urge you and all readers to check out music that you’re attracted to yourselves, not depend on my pronouncements to hold you off from making your own judgements.

It was his 3rd birthday party and he loved dinosaurs! He ate dinosaur cookies, played dinosaur games, wore a dinosaur shirt, slept on dinosaur sheets with his dinosaur stuffed companions. And he had totally nailed a young dinosaur’s roar! The party was dinosaur dynamite!
As we sipped on dinosaur swamp water (lime punch) and munched on dinosaur bones (cookies), his older brother turned to me to ask a question. I could tell he was hoping for a real answer, and was a little worried there might not be one.
“When did God make the dinosaurs?” he ventured.
Others have asked dinosaur questions, too, just in different ways. It was time for some answers. This boy was serious.
He goes on to say that perhaps children’s imaginations are captured by dinosaurs because they are “big, fierce, and extinct” and therefore thrilling, but safe. Kids don’t have to worry about one getting into their house because, after all, there aren’t any scary ones still alive.
Sometimes I wonder if the multitudinous emphasis on dinosaurs serves to highlight the void of information about them in the Bible school classroom, leading to a lethal seed of doubt in the minds of our young. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but I still believe in Satan’s ploys…and God’s truths.

Helio airplanes are proven workhorses that have been operating around the globe in the harshest environments for over 30 years. The new breed of Helio Courier and Helio Stallion aircraft will feature modern glass panels and interiors commensurate with today’s high end SUV’s. Put the reliability, performance and safety of a Helio to work for you.
Who says bush planes have to be slow?
The Helio Stallion is a 10-place single-engine turboprop bush/utility aircraft. The Stallion features a 750 shaft horsepower Pratt & Whitney PT6A turbo-prop engine. The plane is designed to be fully maneuverable and controllable at 37 knots and has a cruise speed of 175 knots. The turbine engine allows the aircraft to be operated around the globe without worries of avgas availability or cost. The new Helio Stallion has an estimated useful load of 3,000 pounds and a range of over 1,000 nautical miles with standard fuel capacity. The Stallion is designed for takeoff and landing distances under 350 feet while carrying 1,700 pounds of payload.
Significant, additional safety qualities of the Helio Stallion aircraft are derived from the design of its basic structure. The Helio Stallion fuselage is part welded steel tube structure and part semi-monocoque (stressed aluminum skin) structure. Loading cargo into the aircraft is made easy with the 5 foot 4 inch wide cargo door, and the absence of wing struts (that would inhibit cargo and passenger loading). The cockpit features individual doors for both the pilot and co-pilot. Huge doors literally open up both sides of the aircraft, and the aft portions can be opened in flight. A hatch in the floor of the cabin is ideal for aerial drops or installation of special equipment such as cameras, infrared systems, winch systems, etc.
For military uses, the Helio Stallion has been outfitted with a wide range of [add AU24 picture] armament carried on four hard points under the wings and a centerline hard point. The hard points, which support 300 pounds each, can also be used for external fuel tanks or as mounting points for imaging devices. A centerline hardpoint on the belly can support 600 pounds. The Company will offer the Stallion in various landing gear configurations, including tricycle landing gear, conventional landing gear, straight floats, amphibious floats, or skis.

"This is a breakthrough book-commentary and discussion ahead of relevant, complete articles/essays- profound!"
I really like the text/reader format. Students can see the raw material from which textbooks are constructed. The format also forces the authors to be more concise and relevant in their summaries of the various topics.
Whilst it proved an interesting read - and may have been useful in a longer course - it provided only an American perspective.
I liked the supplemental readings but found that the course I am teaching is an intro level juvenile justice course. I felt like the readings would be appropriate for more advanced students.
A useful and informative resource which is ideal for those students who want to explore this area in greater details.
Fulfills need for basic information plus teaching critical thinking and comprehension skills. Provides multiple points of view and jumping-off places for discussion and inquiry.

Carbon finance includes the exchange of contracts for the sale and purchase of securities to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) in markets established by the Kyoto Protocol. This is done in order to help developing countries significantly reduce such gases with the support of developed countries, in an equitable and transparent manner. Globally, it is trying to transform the current economic model, towards a non-renewable energy model that takes into account climate change and is more environmentally responsible. It also seeks to promote energy efficiency, efficient use of nonrenewable resources and sustainable consumption.
This model is not about taxing GHG emissions, since taxation depends on each country, what this model strives to develop is an efficient market exchange of emission allowances to offset such emissions. A carbon credit system provides economic incentives for businesses that contribute to improving the quality of the environment, considering the right to emit GHG as interchangeable and following a price dictated by the market. This system benefits companies that do not emit, or emit very little, and charges those that emit more than permitted. These securities are primarily emission permits, allocated by countries to companies to produce GHG when a set limit is exceeded, emission reduction certificates issued for specific projects and voluntary reduction certificates. This market also seeks to channel financial resources to enable the implementation of technologies that mitigate the impact on the environment and that the credits, created by emission reduction, are marketed and allow those who buy them to achieve reduction obligations.
Following the new carbon tax, which came into effect this year in Mexico, companies can pay this obligation through carbon credits or by emission reduction certificates. The current tax reform provides the option to choose how to pay for this tax. Clear rules are not yet established that would facilitate this process, as well as regulations to promote and drive the carbon market in our country; the basis has been established but secondary legislation is required to be issued shortly. It is estimated that just fewer than 40% of companies in Mexico is aware of this tax.
It is worth nothing that this stimulus is not only aimed at companies listed on the Stock Market, public officials and civil organizations can benefit from it as well. For this reason, the Mexican Stock Exchange established a platform dubbed MexiCo2 market for the sole purpose of trading carbon credits, in which titles will be exchanged on a voluntary basis. This platform allows those companies that issue pollutants to acquire tradable certificates through an electronic program. At the same time, it allows investors to promote environmental projects that help reduce climate change in relation to renewable energy, forestry, public and private transport, methane creation and energy efficiency.
Furthermore, it is important to recognize that carbon certificates will diversify in the future, which will set the tone to be an affordable option for a greater number of companies. Our country is the first in Latin America with a carbon market incorporated into a stock exchange, which is a great advantage, since it has the technical and institutional support of the subsidiaries of the Mexican Stock Market. The aforementioned comes as a great opportunity for Mexico to take the lead over other Latin America countries when in comes to transfer technology and new production processes.
In addition to a carbon market in Mexico, I believe that it is necessary to promote a more integrative initiative, both at government and private level, which encourages businesses and consumers to adopt more energy efficient practices. It requires many more initiatives and investment, as well as a social and cultural change that encourages energy responsibility in the economic affairs of our country, lead by our financial institutions, businesses, government, and educational institutions who ought to stimulate new ways of meeting the challenges of climate change and its socio-economic consequences.

The idea of evaluating customers for the monetary risk they pose to a business is not a new concept. The idea of trying to understand customers´ future monetary values - and the probability of their future risk - is perhaps rather new.
This paper focuses on how to evaluate the likelihood of contuinued customers patronage versus the risk of losing it.

Well actually, that’s exactly what 4/6 of our whānau look like. My partner and I both brought two beautiful children each into our relationship, so, together, we have four children in what we call our ‘whānau kōpere’ or ‘rainbow family’ though most would refer to it as a ‘blended family’. We trick ourselves into thinking that a rainbow whānau will be more beautiful and colourful than any other and mostly it is.
They are so completely different, which makes life colourful! I would say, the one thing that we all share is our passion and hunger for all facets of language — you know, the good, the bad, the ugly, and the incomprehensible also! From our children we learn that words like ‘anu’, a Māori term for ‘cold’, has been coined from the full word ‘anuanu’ to mean ‘ugly’. And, when we ask them to pick their bags up, or piles of clean clothes, and take them to their rooms, that ‘Mē?’ is, to them, an acceptable response. Forget that translated, it means,‘Must’, and they are missing the ‘I’ to form the complete defiance, ‘Must I?’ According to them, we should ‘get the gist’.
Recently, Aotearoa celebrated ‘Te Wiki o te Reo Māori’, Māori Language Week, and I was quite encouraged and excited by the effort made in public sectors and media alike, along with personal efforts made by friends and whānau.
We are a Māori-speaking household; we have chosen to speak only Māori to our children, so when our second daughter was asked what she would be doing to celebrate Māori Language Week, I wasn’t surprised by her response, “He māori noa te kōrero Māori nē Māmā? Ka puta rānei ki tētahi wharekai whakanuia ai?” Meaning, “Isn’t speaking Māori the norm Mum? Should we go out and eat to celebrate?” Now there are two things that are very distinctly ‘our daughter’ about this. Number one is her belief that Māori is the norm, and English is her ‘other’ language, and number two, her love for food!
The kids view Māori Language Week as a time when there are lots of stickers sent to kura that are in Māori that they can stick anywhere, and when the supermarkets add Māori labels to their shelves. Simple, yet effective nonetheless, because they definitely notice the difference.
I must acknowledge Radio New Zealand, who for years now has had their news presenters lead the news in te reo Māori all year round, and they are doing a sterling job keeping te reo Māori out there. Countdown supermarkets are on board, too, and it’s really awesome to hear our emergent reader children in these spaces having success when reading the labels.
So, while Aotearoa has done a beautiful job dedicating the past week to te reo Māori in many diverse ways, I’m always left a bit deflated when things go back to our ‘norm’. We, as second language learners know, that there are no more news reports in te reo, no more greetings and farewells by airline staff in te reo, no daring posts in social media circles challenging people to Give it a go! The hype dissipates, and it’s left to the steadfast few to maintain.
We are so proud of the efforts made by our children in keeping our language alive. And even more so because it’s not that they think that it’s disappearing, or that they feel obligated to do so — it’s because it’s their norm. We are even more impressed with their efforts in learning their second language, English, and the value that they give it. They are always experimenting and wanting to get it right without being instructed to.
I think this means that they have a high regard for the English language, and this shows in their need to get it right. I would love for this to be the way that we all think about te reo Māori. I would love to hear people making an effort until they get it right, and it becomes their norm. I’m not talking about making te reo Māori compulsory in schools or workplaces, I’m just talking about something as simple as a person seeing a Māori word, making an effort to learn how to say it and what it means, and making that your ‘normal practice’.
It’s simple in our children’s minds, He māori noa!
Wawaro Te Whaiti is a Måori Medium Facilitator for CORE Education, in the Manawatu-Whanganui regions. Wawaro's focus over the last ten or so years has been on the Māori language and it’s suvival, Māori medium, developing of pedgagies and resources to support children’s learning. Ko ahau te poutakawaenga ā-ipurangi mō ngā hōtaka reo Māori. He poutakawaenga ā-kanohi hoki. Kei Manawatū e noho ana.
Tēnā koe e te toka tū. Nāu i mau tonu ki te reo rangatira ahakoa te karekare o te moana. Ka nui tāku miharo mōu me tōu whānau e hoa ā ka whakaohooho ōu kupu i āku hiahia ki te ako tonu, ki te körero tonu i ā tatou Reo rangatira. Ko te tumanako, kei te tiki tēnei Reo! Nā reira, he mihi aroha ki a koe.

Getting connected in Malaysia again | Another dot in the blogosphere?
No more white elephant boards!
This is the latest addition to my “Getting connected in…” series on overseas prepaid SIMs.
In my previous Getting connected in Malaysia, I recommended the prepaid Digi SIM.
This week I tried Maxis Hotlink while I was there for a conference. I had done my research online beforehand and targetted the 1GB for RM10 plan (less than SGD3.50 at the current exchange rate).
My flight took me to KLIA Terminal 2 and there were prepaid SIM kiosks right before the immigration counters. I found out that it would actually cost RM30 for the plan because I did not already have a Maxis SIM.
Most folk would recommend buying the SIM outside the airport, but here are some reasons I ignored that advice.
I avoided the hassle of trying to find a SIM kiosk outside the airport. I have found that convenience stores often offer only top-ups or have a poor stock of prepaid SIM packs.
RM30 is about SGD10 and this is less than what I would pay for a rented travel router from Changi Recommends (CR). CR charges SGD12 a day and has a daily data cap of 400MB.
I wanted to be connected as soon as possible. How much faster could be even before I cleared immigration?
Unlike the tedious setups I experienced the previous times I went with Digi, the setup for Maxis Hotlink was even quicker than UK’s Three prepaid SIM. After quickly registering with my passport, the salesperson at the counter popped the new SIM into my iPhone and it was ready even without restarting it.
Note: In the screenshots, my iPhone has Digi in the top left because that was the roaming network my Singapore SIM was on. I was using wifi via my travel router which housed the Maxis Hotlink SIM.
I had expected only what my plan offered. However, there were three bonuses.
I received data bonuses by virtue of arriving on a weekend. The plan also came with RM15 credit that allowed me to get even more data (500-750MB depending on what I chose).
Maxis has an excellent mobile app that allowed me to monitor my data quota and purchase more data without fiddling with an SMS menu system.
The prepaid SIM worked flawlessly in my travel router. The SIM also did not have to be in my phone for the mobile app to work.
I did not get to test a fourth benefit. Apparently Maxis allows throttled access after your data quota runs out. This is a boon if you rely on text-heavy social media apps like WhatsApp, Twitter, or Facebook.
Here is some general advice that bears repeating.
Use a travel router if you have one. This way you can share the connection with more than one device. A travel router is likely to have a battery that lasts the whole day or come with interchangeable batteries.
Bring a spare or dual SIM phone if you do not have a travel router. The spare can be a cheap device for sharing bandwidth, is less tempting to would-be robbers, and allows you to receive calls at your normal number.
Keep your home country SIM in your original phone. Sometimes the foreign telco carrier will force setting changes or downloads that can make your phone misbehave when you return home.
Most of your contacts already have your phone number, not your new SIM number. While you save them some money if you get a local SIM, you have to remember to update all of them. This might be furthest from your mind as you travel.
Disclaimer: I was not asked or paid to promote Maxis. The information I provide is meant to help travellers and is accurate at the point of sharing. I also provide opinion along with facts that could change over time. Caveat emptor.

After our last camping trip to Nolin River Lake, we booked two more camping trips almost immediately. What can I say, we are hooked! We had a few days in October with nothing scheduled, so we were looking for a place to camp for those days. Casey found a brochure for Cumberland Falls State Park and it was talking about something called a "Moonbow". We were intrigued. So if you didn't know, a moonbow is a rainbow that happens at night time. You can see one at Cumberland Falls when there is a full moon and no clouds. Turns out, the moonbow was happening on the exact dates we were wanting to book something for, so it was settled. And, this is the only place a moon bow happens in the western hemisphere! Pretty cool.
They call Cumberland Falls the Niagra of the South, which cracks me up! But let me tell you, it really is spectacular. It is bigger in person that I thought it was going to be- you really can't tell in photos how grand and magnificent it is.
And of course, the dogs were with us again!
If you look behind me in this photo you will see some tiny little people- that is where the waterfall is. We first saw the waterfall at night right after we set up camp, but we went back the next day to see the waterfall in the daylight.
This is a view of the sun rising over the river from the Lodge. If you aren't into camping in a tent, you could always check out the rooms there!
We explored a lot around the park. It's in the middle of the Daniel Boone National Forest, so there is no lack of beauty.
Okay this is my second favorite part of our trip. We randomly found this abandoned parking lot on the other side of the river. It was huge! We were so intrigued and ended up taking photos here for a while. We couldn't make sense of what it was because the parking lot was pristine in places and grown over intensely around the edges- like it had been abandoned for years. But it was so big, it seemed like a theme park parking lot of a massive walmart parking lot.
We asked the people who worked at our campsite and no one knew what it was. On our way home we stopped at a gas station and they knew what it was and good thing, because curiosity was killing us! It was apparently something called Tombstone Junction. Look it up and read the Wikipedia page- it's a bizarre thing. What is crazy is that we couldn't see any evidence of what used to be there at all.
This wildflower bush was just growing in the middle of the parking lot. How resistant does a plant have to be to burst through asphalt or concrete?
Here is a view of one part of the parking lot.
The road to the park was beautiful so we stopped and snapped a few photos here and there.
This is actually a picnic area in Cumberland Falls State Park. It's up on a hill overlooking the river, so could be a great place to stop and eat after checking out the waterfall!
In case you were wondering, the dogs were always with us. In all the photos, the dogs were just off to the side rolling their eyes.
Our campsite (TG20) was really spacious and it had electric and water- what a dream! If you decide to camp here, I would recommend booking TG19 or TG20. TG19 is bigger and perfect for large groups, but both are pretty private and level and beautiful. They have many other spots but these were the most spacious- some spots have your tent right on the road, which is no bueno for us with dogs (or children).
Our last night camping we played through a whole game of Phase 10. Have y'all ever played this? I used to play this in high school and it would get really tense. We were always playing with a bigger group of people and it was cut-throat! Sometimes we didn't even make it through all 10 phases because we were tired of playing. But Casey and I made it through and it was less stressful than with a huge group!
I'm happy to say that after this trip we decided to upgrade our tent. This four person tent just isn't cutting it for two air mattresses and three dogs. I mean it has worked just fine for our last 3 trips, but we are ready to be able to stand up and have a tiny bit of room. Anybody have any recommendations?
Okay, here is one more photo of the moon bow. When you see the moonbow in person, the colors are so faint, it's like a rainbow made of pastel colors. It almost seemed white at times when you just glanced quickly. I know that doesn't sound as cool, and that the photos look really pretty, but nothing compares to seeing this in person. It happens once a month, so maybe look into a trip there?
What a privilege it is to be able to see things like this with our own eyes. I know this word is overused, but what an epic moment it was. Things your brain hasn't even thought of exist in this world. And sometimes you get to see those things and be in awe of the phenomenal creation we live in. Finding these kind of things is so rewarding and enjoyable. The opportunity to experience extraordinary things is not lost on us and we hope you find time to make your own adventure!

We always begin team meetings at Aunt Bertha with our mission statement — “To connect all people in need and the programs that serve them (with dignity and ease).” As part of that mission, we strive to build products that help Community Based Organizations (providers of socials services) streamline their processes, work together, and most importantly, save time so they can better meet the needs of the people they serve.
We consistently hear from Program Administrators that they lack insight into their colleagues’ schedules and consequently double (or triple) book intake appointments. This leaves professionals at these organizations overworked and the people they help, confused. We believe there is a better way.
The Appointment Scheduling tool offers a way for claimed Community Based Organizations (CBOs) listed on Aunt Bertha to easily create, schedule, and manage appointments with people in need of services as a key step in their intake process. Managing appointments can be stressful (on both sides), time consuming, and expensive. Our tool is free and simple to use.
get reminders via email or text message so they never miss an important appointment.
Interested in adding appointment scheduling to your program listings on Aunt Bertha? We’re so glad! Just click below and our team will set you up. Reminder: Appointment Scheduling is a completely free feature — all you have to do is claim your program listing.
As always, we’d love your feedback on our new Appointment Scheduling tool. Please send your thoughts to community@auntbertha.com.

LI Li, WANG Xue-yan, TIAN Yan-fang, WANG Yao-sheng, LI Gui-tong, LIN Qi-mei, ZHAO Xiao-rong. Effects of biochar on soil nutrients, yield and quality of vegetables[J]. Journal of Plant Nutrition and Fertilizers, 2018, 24(5): 1237-1244.
Abstract: 【Objectives】 China is the largest producer of greenhouse vegetables in the world. However, with the continuation of planting years, problems such as soil secondary salinization, decreased vegetable quality and reduced yields, are becoming increasingly prominent. In this study, biochar was used in greenhouse vegetable cultivation as soil amendment to investigate its effect on growth of vegetables and soil nutrient supply, to explore a green and sustainable method for agricultural production in greenhouse and seek a basis for the rational application of biochar in greenhouse vegetable cultivation. 【Methods】 Field experiments were conducted in a greenhouse, celery and eggplant were planted successively as the tested crops. The treatments were comprised of five biochar addition levels: 0 (B0), 20 (B20), 40 (B40), 80 (B80), and 160 t/hm2 (B160) biochar. The effects of biochar on vegetable yields, nitrate content of celery, vitamin C content and catalase activity of eggplant, and soil nutrients were studied. 【Results】 Compared with B0, B20 and B160 treatments increased celery yield by 31.6% and 30.3%, respectively, whereas B40 and B80 treatments had no significant effect on celery yield. B20 treatment had no significant effect on celery nitrate content, but B40, B80 and B160 treatments significantly reduced the celery nitrate content by 37.0%, 37.2% and 49.1%, respectively, the difference among treatments was not significant. On eggplant, the application of biochar had no significant effect on the yields, VC content and catalase activity. When the amount of biochar increased to 160 t/hm2 (B160), the nitrogen and phosphorus accumulation of eggplant fruit was inhibited. Compared with B0, B80 and B160 treatments significantly increased soil available potassium content by 95.8% and 196.2% after harvesting celery, respectively, while B160 treatment increased soil available potassium content by 165.5% after harvesting eggplant. For soil available phosphorus content, the addition of biochar had no significant effect in two cultivation seasons. In contrast, the effect of biochar on soil alkali-hydrolysable nitrogen was complicated, that was, it had no significant effect on soil alkali-hydrolysable nitrogen content after harvesting celery, but B40, B80 and B160 treatments decreased alkali-hydrolysable nitrogen content by 11.7%, 10.0% and 20.3% after harvesting eggplant, respectively. In addition, economic analysis showed that the B20 treatment had the highest benefit among all treatments. Compared with B0, B20 treatment improved net income by 9.4%. With increase of biochar addition, the input cost increased and the benefit of B160 treatment was the lowest among all treatments. 【Conclusions】 At the biochar dose of 20 t/hm2, celery yield was the highest and the benefit of greenhouse was the highest among all treatments, but it had no significant effect on vegetable qualities. However, when the amount of biochar was increased to 40 t/hm2, the nitrate content of celery was significantly decreased. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to study the optimum amount of biochar between 20 and 40 t/hm2 to achieve the goal of improving yields and qualities of vegetables.

Groups let you connect with like-minded people in public, private or secret forums.
A Group is a separate space inside Facebook that allows you to share information with a select group of people. Use them to connect with business contacts from a specific networking organization or a strategic alliance.
One of the easiest ways to start connecting with your best contacts is Groups. Facebook is a big place and it can be hard to stand out in the Feed unless you are posting very regularly. Groups are much easier (and more fun!) to use. It’s like shouting at everyone in a large room vs. sitting down with your friends at a table.
TAKE ACTION: Spend at least 15 minutes this week connecting with your contacts in your Groups. Have conversations by sharing, liking & commenting.
Get started by joining Groups.
You can JOIN Groups created by other people (EASIEST) or you can start your own Group (ADVANCED). I suggest you start by joining Groups to connect with the communities you define in your online brand strategy.
I belong to Facebook groups from other business coaches, local networking groups, special interests and more. Some of these are totally open (needing no approval), others need permission from the owner, and others are a perk as part of a paid product. You can also look to join these types of Groups by looking for Groups that your friends have also joined.
You will be interacting through your PERSONAL PROFILE.
The last few Byte Sized Tips have help you to make sure that your Personal Profile is up-to-date and you are sharing engaging photos. This is very important as you take this next step. As you interact, people will click on your Profile to learn more about you, and you’ll have a Profile that is reflecting who you are, both personally & professionally.
Get to know other Group members by sharing, commenting & liking on a regular basis.
This is a great opportunity to learn about your contacts. See what they are sharing and respond. Avoid a lot of self-promotion. If someone does ask for a recommendation for someone in your field, it’s OK to offer some insight and a link to your website or current promo, but this should only be a small portion of the conversation.
If are also having trouble remembering, then put a reminder on your calendar, like you would for an in-person networking event. Your contacts will be happy to hear from you! This might sound like a no-brainer, but I sometimes get busy and forget to do this. So just take today’s Byte Sized Tip as a reminder to check in.

The U.S. is too vulnerable for this issue to wait. Lame duck congress must act.
Each day brings into sharper focus the depth of America's cyber insecurity. Most recently, news reports on the cyber-attacks on JP Morgan revealed that an estimated 76 million U.S. households and 7 million small businesses have been compromised by criminal syndicates. Chinese hackers abetted by the Beijing government and People's Liberation Army probe U.S. cyber networks every day, seeking not only to steal trade secrets and intellectual property, but also to uncover national security vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, insider threats pose risks to both public and private sector organizations.
A recent project we co-chaired at the Center for the Study of the Presidency & Congress, details the growing threat that cyber-attacks pose to the U.S. electrical grid. This report demonstrates how much-needed technological improvements to the grid, such as networked Smart Grid systems, can actually present new openings for cyber-attack.
The constant drumbeat of headlines makes it clear that perhaps the greatest vulnerability this nation faces lies in cyberspace. Some have warned of a "Cyber Pearl Harbor." But Pearl Harbor was a surprise. No one in business or government today can continue to plead surprise when it comes to the possibility of cyber attack. It is imperative that our political and private sector leaders work together to secure critical infrastructure and other networked systems from cyber-predators.
Some key actions have already been taken to address cybersecurity, including President Obama's executive order on cybersecurity, and the successful creation of entities such as the National Cybersecurity Communications Integration Center (NCCIC). Yet despite growing attacks on an increasingly vulnerable electrical grid, financial sector and other critical infrastructure, political deadlock prevents our government from taking needed action.
Like so much other important business, however, this legislation is a victim of our broken politics. Still, the House passed legislation in one of the most bipartisan votes of this deadlocked Congress, and there is Senate legislation moving towards the floor. For the sake of the nation's security it is imperative that Republicans and Democrats come together and offer bipartisan support for this important legislation.
The upcoming lame duck session offers a vital "window of opportunity" to move on this critical legislation. If not, legislation in the next Congress will be forced to largely start from scratch, wasting the rare bipartisan progress that has been recently made. Key leaders in the area of cybersecurity reform are leaving Congress, or moving to other committees. For instance, in the House key legislation has been shepherded by the bipartisan leadership of Michigan Republican Rep. Mike Rogers and Maryland Democrat Dutch Ruppersberger. Rep. Rogers will be leaving the House after this term and Rep. Ruppersburger's seat on the House Intelligence Committee is term-limited.
In the Senate, Senator Saxby Chambliss will retire, and he has worked closely with Chairman Dianne Feinstein on this legislation, as well as the issues of intelligence-gathering reform. If meaningful progress is not achieved during the lame duck session, a new cast of legislators will have to reset this critically needed legislation. Inaction favors the hackers. It is difficult to imagine anyone in Congress favors such an outcome.
We do not believe the nation has the luxury of more wasted time. Congress and the Obama administration need to pass key cyber reforms now, before it is too late.
Mack McLarty, White House chief of staff for President Bill Clinton, and Tom Ridge, secretary of Homeland Security for President George W. Bush are Trustees of the Center for the Study of the Presidency & Congress.

You simply can't help but notice how 'green' our countryside looks this summer - it appears, everywhere you look, the grass, flowers and other flora seem to growing with almost bionic energy, enthusiasm and vigour! No doubt the persistent and endless rain-soaked weeks we've all been enduring have been the main factors/contributor to this amazing phenomenon.
Among the wealth of plants of waysides and waste places that are now enjoying their prime flowering time is the rather impressive and slightly foreign-looking Aaron's rod or great mullein, Verbascum thapsus. Having overwintered as a large rosette of grey, woolly leaves, it now sends up its tall spike of large yellow flowers, attractive to many hungry local insects.
However, it's worth bearing in mind that there are actually a number of different mulleins, and though this particular species is the most likely one to turn up around here, (usually growing alongside similar-sized, colourful foxgloves), identification can sometimes be a problem - a , rarer, well-branched white type can occasionally crop up too.
By their very nature, invasive 'alien' plant species, which take advantage of broken, impoverished ground, tend to be newcomers from abroad, but according to expert botanists and good field guides, all our exotic-looking mulleins seem to be native.
Sadly though, despite their impressive size and robustness, they are still one of a whole range of beautiful wild flowers that tend to be squeezed out of our modern, tidied-up landscape.
It is really only because our mulleins have tough, persistent seeds, which can wait until the soil is disturbed, that they have not disappeared altogether.
Keeping with my 'flower power' theme this time round, I've also noticed recently how the cow parsley, lining our road verges and other wild areas, is now giving way and being quietly replaced by the similar-looking but taller, bristlier and much more nutritious hogweed, Heracleum sphondylium Nutritious, that is, to insects!
Everything from butterflies, moths, hoverflies, to flying bugs and beetles, all fly in to mop up/feast on nectar from the big, white, 'dinner-plate' sized flower heads - known as umbels.
Since these are about chest or head height for most of us, they're perfectly placed for watching and photographing various fascinating insects.
They are in fact, completely harmless red soldier beetles. Almost invariably seen in coupled pairs and unlike many other species of beetle, they are actually soft-bodied, and their wing cases are not very strong or robust.
At this precise time of year they tend to visit the flower heads to mate, but are certainly not just around for the nectar and fun - they also use these conspicuous flat, white, spaces to catch smaller insect prey feeding on these umbels too. Among the other insects flocking to the hogweed right now are several types of hoverfly, including the honeybee-like drone flies and hairy bumblebee-mimicking hover-flies such as Volucella bombylans, spotted feeding near the mouth of North Esk last week, which is capable of mimicking red-tailed, buff-tailed and white-tailed bumblebees.
