Networking structure
In my running to understand the structure of Debian GNU/kFreeBSD some doubts appeared to me, like the networking proccess. I mean, FreeBSD networking is managed in a completly different way than in Debian GNU/Linux. How network system works on kfreebsd? How the /etc/network/interfaces works under kfreebsd? The rc.conf exist in kfreebsd?

Classroom alphabet 2
Parts of the Bajoran alphabet (lower right)
The Bajoran language family was a group of both extinct and existing languages and dialects used on Bajor.
Written language Edit
Bajoran script
Bajoran script
Bajoran script, Reckoning text
Example of written Bajoran, both ancient and modern, translation provided
The Bajoran written language consisted of square symbols which were composed of thick lines. There were a large number of different symbols which could be used in any of eight rotations (flipped and rotated each and every way). Bajoran tended to be written in horizontal lines, although it could be written vertically. (DS9: "Shadows and Symbols")
Bajoran writing was said to be ideographic, that was, each character represented a single thought or word pictured. Most forms of written Bajoran shared some root ideograms, as evidenced by the Reckoning Tablet. Each ancient Bajoran symbol translated into a pair of nearly identical modern Bajoran symbols. (DS9: "The Reckoning") Bajoran books are opened from left to right, though it is not clear that this is related to the direction of writing. (DS9: "The Changing Face of Evil").
Established words and phrases Edit
Religious terms Edit
Measurements Edit
Prayers Edit
• Tesra Peldor impatri bren. Bentel vetan ullon sten..
Orb blessing prayer. (DS9: "Resurrection")
Appendices Edit
Background information Edit
The Bajoran script was designed by Doug Drexler, who was senior scenic artist for the Deep Space Nine series. [1](X)
In ultimately unused dialogue from the first draft script of DS9: "The Changing Face of Evil", while Dukat (disguised as Bajoran farmer Anjohl Tennan) was trying to help Winn Adami in her attempt to understand the Book of the Kosst Amojan, Adami skeptically commented, "Since when does a simple farmer know how to read ancient Bajoran?" In reply, Dukat claimed, "I can pick out a few words," though he was thereafter dismissed by Winn.

The issue is one that various courts have addressed over the years: what recourse does a corporation have when a relator steals confidential information and discloses it to his or her attorney and to the government? The answer is . . . it depends. It depends on the scope of the materials taken, their relationship to the relator’s claim, and the breadth of the disclosure.
On May 13, 2016, the Northern District of Illinois added another to the list of cases on this issue when it dismissed a counterclaim filed by LifeWatch Services, Inc. (LifeWatch). In its counterclaim, LifeWatch alleged that the relator stole confidential information and then disclosed it to the government and his lawyer. United States ex. Rel. Cieszyski v. LifeWatch Services Inc., No. 13-CV-4052 (N.D. Ill. May 13, 2016). In a brief, 11-page, opinion, the court dismissed LifeWatch’s counterclaim, holding that public policy protects whistleblowers from retaliation when they investigate and report allegations of fraud to the government. Id. at 6-10.
At issue in the case were two agreements signed by the relator. In April 2003, when he started working at the company, the relator signed a “Confidentiality Agreement.” Id. at 3. That agreement prohibited the relator from taking and disclosing to another “Confidential Information” of the company, such as financial data, pricing information and customer data. A few years later, in September 2006, the relator received the Company’s “Privacy Policy,” a document that stressed “the need to secure PHI [Protected Health Information]” and that further set forth the relator’s obligation to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Id. at 4. The relator signed that he had read and understood his obligations under the Privacy Policy. Id.
Within a few years of signing these agreements, however, the relator took certain information from the company that he then provided to his lawyer and the government. These materials were the basis of the relator’s complaint that the company violated the False Claims Act (FCA) when it submitted certain claims to Medicare.
In response to this complaint, LifeWatch filed a counterclaim that the relator had breached the Confidentiality Agreement and the Privacy Policy. Without question, the materials taken fell within the scope of the Confidentiality Agreement. Even the relator conceded as much. Id. at 3 n.3. And, at least one spreadsheet taken contained PHI regarding 52,000 patients, some of whom were not insured by the government and had no bearing on the relator’s claims that LifeWatch violated the FCA. Id. at 5.
Nonetheless, the relator moved to dismiss, and the court granted that motion.
The court began with what it called the broad “public policy that protects whistleblowers from retaliation for actions taken in investigating and reporting fraud to the government.” Id. at 6 (collecting cases). While this public policy is broad enough to prevent counterclaims against relators, there are rare instances when such claims can proceed, such as when the plaintiff takes and discloses materials well beyond the scope of what is needed to pursue a qui tam claim. Id. at 6; United States ex rel Wildhirt v. AARS Forever, Inc., 2013 WL 5304092 (N.D. Ill. September 19, 2013).
In this case, however, the court held that the relator did not engage in such a broad and untethered disclosure of confidential materials. Instead, the relator only took those documents reasonably needed for his claim against LifeWatch. LifeWatch, No. 13-CV-4052, at 8-9. The court put it this way:
Relator did not disclose the information to anyone other than the government and his attorney, did not disclose attorney-client information, and did not disclose trade secret information to LifeWatch’s competitors. . . . To allow a counterclaim based on the barest allegation that a relator took more documents than absolutely necessary would gut the strength and purpose of the public policy exception[.]
Id. at 9. For this reason, the court held that the relator did not breach the Confidentiality Agreement. Id.
So, too, the court held that LifeWatch failed to state a claim that the relator breached its Privacy Policy. According to the court, the Privacy Policy was not a contract at all. But, even if it was, the court held that handing over HIPAA-related information to the government and his lawyer was proper because the HIPAA regulations themselves contain a safe harbor for employees who disclose PHI to a government agency or attorney, if the employee has a good faith belief that the employer has engaged in wrongdoing. Id. at 10-11.
LifeWatch is not an unusual case. Relators often troll corporate files for materials that they then pass on to the government or to their lawyer. Sometimes, courts intervene and allow the harmed companies to sue for breach of contract for the unauthorized disclosure. See, e.g., United States ex rel. Cafasso v. Gen. Dynamics C4 Sys., Inc., 637 F.3d 1047, 1062 (9th Cir.2011); Wildhirt, 2013 WL 5304092, at *6. Nonetheless, as the LifeWatch case shows, it is often difficult for companies to win such cases, even when the material taken is clearly confidential or affects patient privacy.

Allegro Non Troppo
From Wikiquote
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Allegro Non Troppo is a 1976 Italian animated film directed by Bruno Bozzetto. Featuring six pieces of classical music, the film is a parody of Walt Disney's Fantasia, two of its episodes being derived from the earlier film. The classical pieces are set to color animation, ranging from comedy to deep tragedy.
At the beginning, in between the animation, and at the end, there are black and white live-action sequences, displaying the fictional animator, orchestra, conductor and filmmaker, with many humorous scenes about the fictional production of the film. Some of these sections mix animation and live action.
The film was released in two versions. The first includes live action sequences in between the classical pieces; the second version of the film omits these, replacing them with animated plasticine letters spelling out the title of the next piece of music.
Directed and produced by Bruno Bozzetto. Written by Bruno Bozzetto and Guido Manuli.
The Presenter[edit]
• [first lines] Ladies and gentlemen, you are about to see an unforgettable show, a film destined to become immortal, as immortal as the music which will follow, and which will be interpreted through animation. Beginning with his childhood fantasies, the greatest ambition that burns and swells in the soul of every creative animator is to illustrate music, to give visual form and color to its notes. With this film, we have finally succeeded in achieving this union of animation and classical music, a union we are sure is destined to live on throughout the history of film. A new and original film that has even astonished us, the men responsible, the men who, quite modestly speaking, can be called its creators. A film in which - in which - [consults a cue card] A film in which you will see the music and listen to the drawings. You might call it a film of magic, a fantasia. [phone rings. The Presenter answers; the caller is not heard] Hello. Yes. Who's speaking? Who is this? What do you mean, who am I? Who is it you wish to speak to? Eh? California? [to camera] It's Hollywood. [to phone] Hello! Yes! What? You've already - [to phone] Hello! Yes! What? You've already - Look, if this is some joke, I'm in no mood -- No, but- No, but- there must be some misunderstanding. You're very ill-mannered... That's right, ill-mannered and a liar! Yes, I said you're a liar! A liar from California [hangs up and speaks to camera] It's nothing. They're mad. Mad as hatters. They insist that our film - this is all so ridiculous - was already made by a certain fellow years ago. A certain someone by the name of Prisney or Grisney. Some American. [picks up phone again] In any case, before you go around opening your big mouth, see the film first!
[last lines]
The Orchestra Master: We're unemployed, then.
The Presenter: Unemployed... until the next movie. I've already got an idea. A brand-new idea. We could do a love story.
The Orchestra Master: A love story?
The Presenter: But not the usual kind about men and women. Lots of men and lots of women.
The Orchestra Master: Wife-swapping?
The Presenter: No, not that same old stuff. Something different. I like asymmetry. Seven men and one woman.
The Orchestra Master: That'll cost a lot.
The Presenter: No, not at all. We'll get little tiny men and make the woman real tall. It'll be fantastic!
The Orchestra Master: Sounds scary.
The Presenter: What do you mean scary? Seven little workers, so you get the social context, too. A mine! They'll work in a min! I can see them now, singing happily.
The Orchestra Master: Have you thought of a title?
The Presenter: That'll be easy. Let's see... "Sleeping Beauty". Now keep it under your hat or some screenwriter hack might steal the idea. You can't trust anyone these days. He'll change the title, play up the sex. And give it some crazy name like "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. And then we'll be screwed.

You Do Not Want To Be In Jan Huokko's Fave FiveYesterday we told you about The Night of a Thousand Dildos, in which Swedish hockey fans showered the ice with plastic sex devices at a second-tier, Pro Hockey League match between Leksand and AIK in Stockholm. The fusillade was unleashed in honor of former AIK and current Leksand player Jan Huokko, who was involved in a sex scandal a few weeks back. Initial reports said that Huokko's cell phone was stolen, and a recording of himself and his girlfriend having sex that was on the phone was distributed over the Internet. But why then, if it was a run-of-the-mill sex romp with his girlfriend, were the fans making such a big deal out of it? This IS Sweden after all; they have sex there while waiting for traffic lights, right? The answer is grosser than you think. The truth is that Huokko's "girlfriend" wasn't even involved. The video featured only Huokko, pleasuring, well, himself. With a dildo. And doing something else which you sometimes see in the primate section at the zoo but that's all I'm going to say. How do I know these things? Well because it's pretty much common knowledge on the Swedish hockey message board scene by now. Still photos of the "event" are everywhere. Here are some of them, kiind of blurry but still I caution you, do not click on this link if you are at work, or if you value your eyes. It's just a wrong thing to have this on your cell phone in any culture or time zone. You've been warned. Here's a crude translation of the accompanying article from the original Swedish, as fed through an online translation program. I actually found it quite funny.
A question in the title have been raised at several forums this week. The sex have as many anomalies as there are color combinations are quite obvious. But when abandon a sex act to sick permission? Are some animals eat their own faeces at the moment, but that it would be accepted as part of sex act is difficult to understand. Then concerns itself in the outer edges of even the most strange. The debate now in force a certain 'elite star' in ishockeyn which has been updated recently Having lost sexfilmer. In a new film which allegedly turned up the same 'hockey star' lie and masturbate, and eat his own excrement. If it is true or not can not determine at the photos now appeared, then they are a bit blurred. The scenario around match but with today's technology where photos and videos are easy to manipulate may simply leave it all to the imagination.
Yes, who among us has not explored the outer edges of even the most strange? Sean Salisbury nods knowingly. Äta Bajs — En Sexualitet? [Blackwater]

The professor comparison
A Meditation on Trees
The meditation below came up in my morning devotions today (19Nov12). There’s not much to add, but it led me to consider that all of us and each of us are like these trees in our limitless interdependence, in our pure purpose unknown to those who try to bend us to their limited, independent purpose.
“The way we stand, you can see we have grown up this way together, out of the same soil, with the same rains, leaning in the same way toward the sun. See how we lean together in the same direction. How the dead limbs of one of us rest in the branches of another. How those branches have grown around the limbs. How the two are inseparable. And if you look you can see the different ways we have taken this place into us. Magnolia, loblolly bay, sweet gum, Southern bayberry, Pacific bayberry, wherever we grow there are many of us, Monterey pine, sugar pine, white-bark pine, four-leaf pine, single-leaf pine, bristle-cone pine, foxtail pine, Torrey pine, Western red pine, Jeffrey pine, bishop pine.
“And we are various, and amazing in our variety, and our differences multiply, so that edge after edge of the endlessness of possibility is exposed. You know we have grown this way for years. And to no purpose you can understand. Yet what you fail to know we know, and the knowing is in us, how we have grown this way, why these years were not one of them heedless, why we are shaped the way we are, not all straight to your purpose, but to ours. And how we are each purpose, how each cell, how light and soil are in us, how we are in the soil, how we are in the air, how we are both infinitesimal and great and how we are infinitely without any purpose you can see, in the way we stand, each alone, yet none of us separable, none of us beautiful when separate but all exquisite as we stand, each moment heeded in this cycle, no detail unlovely.”
Susan Griffin (reprinted in Earth Prayers from Around the World, edited by Elizabeth Roberts and Elias Amidon, 1991, page 55)
Jane comparison
Dr. Jane Goodall has famously said that she thought she would make a better Jane for Tarzan than would the character ERB created. Presumably, she was referring to Jane Porter as portrayed in the first two novels. My impression of that character has long been that she only screams and faints. There’s no accounting for taste, of course, but that just doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would interest a character like Tarzan.
For whatever else ERB intended for the character of Jane Porter, it’s clear that he was writing for an Edwardian audience who had grown up as he had in the Victorian period. Everyone has their biases, and those were ERB’s. Our biases are different, even if we happen to admire ERB and Edwardian or Victorian sensibilities. In Tarzan of the Apes, Jane is stranded for a full month on the edge of the African jungle, and so far as ERB reports it, her only dress remains immaculate. In Return of Tarzan, when she is stranded again just a few miles away from the same spot, the men with her are reduced to improvised garments made from rodent skins while her single change of clothes remains modest and clean. My copy of P.J. Farmer’s Tarzan Alive is not where I can lay my hands on it, but my memory is that he suggests that Jane and Esmeralda were bathing in a jungle stream when she was abducted by an ape. Unadorned physical attractiveness clearly is powerful, but without other character traits, it will not generally sustain interest.
ERB apparently became aware of the same issue. In his story of Jane in Pal-ul-don (whose title seems constantly to slip my mind. Is it Tarzan the Terrible?), she develops hunting and survival skills while stranded alone in a jungle or forest. By this time in the long saga, she and Tarzan have been married for many years, and she has observed his skills. Being an intelligent woman, she figures out how to do it herself. By the time of Tarzan’s Quest, she is not only a pilot, but she has developed considerable ability to hunt and, more interestingly, to move about in the branches of the trees while wearing leather boots. I don’t recall that ERB gives us any indication that she might have learned to move through the branches as Tarzan does using his hands and arms. Swinging on vines (or conveniently placed trapezes) is left for the Tarzan of the movies.
Robin Maxwell’s Jane: The Woman Who Loved Tarzan is a much different character than ERB’s Jane, just as her Tarzan is much different than ERB’s Tarzan. Her Jane is British with an American father who has emigrated to England. Her Jane is a medical student taking classes from her father and helping him with his research. Her Jane also has serious psychological insecurities along with a very active libido. Though Maxwell’s Tarzan and Jane are together for a long time before engaging in sexual activity, the delay seems unrealistic and contrived, and the explanation of her temporary infertility seems pedantic and unsuited to a jungle romance. Actually, a great deal of the book seems similarly unsuited. Curiously, though there is discussion of movement through the branches, it is all on foot while Tarzan once or twice swings from tree to tree on a vine, and most of Tarzan and Jane’s travel through the jungle is on the ground or through the waters of a swamp.
The Diary of Miss Jane Porter (available at began before I was aware of Jane Goodall’s interest in and influence by ERB’s Tarzan. However, I set out to create a character who would be a worthy mate for Tarzan, a strong (emotionally and psychologically), intelligent, resourceful, agile woman. In other words, she needed to be like many of the women I have known. She also needed to remain as much as possible a woman of the time in which ERB set the story. My literary device was an imagined diary which would give an insider’s view of the events while remaining close enough to ERB’s plot and setting that one could easily imagine the official, public version of the same events to be the one ERB tells. In terms of writing technicalities, Jane is the point-of-view character throughout the novel. The attire I gave Jane, and particularly the camisole and drawers, came from a reprint of a Sears & Roebuck catalog from the period. However, the garments do not remain in like-new, fresh-from-the-laundry condition, and Esmeralda expends considerable energy keeping everyone decently clothed. When Jane goes up into the trees, Tarzan at first carries her, but her independent streak leads her to try it on her own, mostly going by foot atop the branches but occasionally using hands and arms.
Though I was much happier with my portrayal of Jane Porter than ERB’s, I remained troubled by several aspects of the novel. Thus, I began a complete reworking which eventually grew into Diana’s Diary (for sale at For a variety of reasons not all having to do with legal considerations, the names have almost all been changed along with changes in plot, setting, characterization, and style; in other words, it is a different novel entirely. Diana Howard corresponds remotely to Jane Porter. She is a strong-willed, intelligent young woman who has always felt an affinity for trees and likes to read (or write in her diary) up in the branches of a tree, much like a young Jane Goodall. Rather than simply tagging along with her father on his journey to Africa (a treasure hunt in ERB and a search for the Missing Link in Maxwell), Diana is hired to go on the expedition as official chronicler. There will be more to say about the setting later, but for now suffice it to say that the expedition is deep in the Congo Free State in central Africa when the novel opens, and Diana is deeply regretting her promise to her father to refrain from climbing any trees. Soon after he frees her from the promise, she climbs and meets a wildman (who corresponds to Tarzan). Eventually, he teaches her how to travel through the branches, at first on foot and eventually fairly flying from branch to branch much as gibbons do. Though the man she meets has much to teach her (and she to teach him), both are well equipped for learning the lessons and neither starts from zero.
Speaking of movies, as I did above, leads us to one other character created by ERB, Balza, who appears in the seventeenth book of the Tarzan saga, Tarzan and the Lion Man. Balza makes only a short appearance near the end of the book. When she shows up, she is beautiful, naked, and blonde-haired, speaks the language of the great apes as well as English, and can move like and live with the great apes. As strange as that may seem, it does fit within the logic of that story. By the end of the book, she has been civilized by representatives of Hollywood, is clothed, and smokes cigarettes, a transformation as radical and much more sudden than Tarzan’s in Tarzan of the Apes. In my work with the character of Jane, I did not want to maintain ERB’s focus on blonde hair as a necessary sign of beauty, so in The Diary of Miss Jane Porter, the apes name her Kabeh for a pair of body parts which she possesses and they lack. Not much of an improvement. Early in the work on Diana’s Diary, the replacement for the apes name her Balza; in revision (and moving away from ERB’s invented ape language) the name was changed but would translate into English in much the same way. More importantly, ERB’s Balza before she is civilized is much like my Jane/Diana after she has become comfortable in the trees.
Where does this leave us? If you like ERB’s Tarzan (and perhaps his Jane), I urge you to read any of the three more modern approaches to the story. If you have developed your own understanding of Jane to the point where she is a suitable mate for Tarzan, you may not like any of these others. That’s not the point. The point is that each of them is interesting for the fresh ways that you will be led to consider the characters and the story. Of course, I feel that my latest version is the best of the three, but I urge you to read the novels before deciding they are unworthy.

(Continued from here.)
The next day, or maybe it was the day after, I started sifting through all the dog emails from CAACQ which were in the trash folder, still undeleted. Why? I don't know. Maybe because I didn't have enough nails lying around to jab into my eyes.
After looking through all the dog profiles, I decided to find out more about the SPCA de Val d'Or so I went online but couldn't find much information on them. They didn't have a website and most Google hits pointed to nondescript address listings.
There was this, though, from the Forum Canin Abitibi Temiscamingue:
The dog in the lower left corner, Rossy, Lab mix, looked like one of the dogs mentioned in one of the e-mails. I checked the date of the forum post. May 3, 2009. It couldn't be the same dog. What kind of a high kill shelter would keep an unadoptable dog around for two years?
I dug through my e-mails from CAACQ until I found the one I was looking for and this was the attachment:
Same photo. Same name. Same dog? Couldn't be. Maybe there was a mix-up. Maybe someone was just re-using old photos. When I brought this up with CAACQ, the intermediaries, they thought the same as I did. Probably a mix-up. It was highly unlikely that a place like SPCA de Val d'Or would keep a dog for that long. How could they have the resources?
Well, I guess we'll see, I thought. Rossy, or whoever it was, was one of the dogs picked to come to Toronto.
Later on that day, I got an e-mail from James telling me the dogs would arrive on Saturday.
I called him to confirm the time. Around 4:30.
And then he said, "Yeah, they're going to be driving that big truck for ten hours."
"Why a big truck?" I asked.
"Sixteen dogs," he said.
"You're bringing down all sixteen?"
Between all the TAS locations and various rescues, including Speaking of Dogs and Happy Tails, they managed to find placements for all the dogs.
5:30, Saturday afternoon, the truck arrived. The dogs inside started barking with excitement even before the trailer doors were opened. I'm not sure if there were exactly sixteen dogs - there may have been some confusion with the e-mail numbering - but the cargo area was packed. Eyes peered out of the shadows, nervous, curious, happy. Lots of panting, whimpering, barking and scratching at cage doors. Lots of tail wags. People, spilling out of the Marlies game, gathered around, wondered what was going on and came to their own conclusions.
Rossy was right up near the front and it was indeed Rossy, the same dog in the photos. His pale blue eyes incongruous with the reddish, shaggy coat, looked at me and then looked away as I took his picture. If he was nervous, he didn't show it. He sat there, patiently waiting for his turn to be taken out of his cage.
I didn't see the Berger Anglais so I got into the trailer and started looking into the crates. I was surprised by how many large dogs there were. The photos in the e-mails made them look smaller.
She was near the back. She was pacing her cage, excited. Much bigger than I had thought. Ninety pounds maybe? Certainly well fed. Clean. When I took her out to relieve herself, she ambled along, pulling a little but not bad. She definitely wasn't an Old English or a Beardie, more like a Doodle of some sort. Labradoodle, Golden Doodle, maybe even a Beardie Doodle. Who knows?
Over the next couple of days, the dogs were transferred to their respective locations. TAS South was keeping Rossy so I got to see her again. I was told the women who transported the dogs from SPCA de Val d'Or cried when they said goodbye to him. It must have been difficult to have to say goodbye to the dog who was saved out of the dozens or hundreds who were killed over the years. This was the dog they pinned their hopes on in a place of too much suffering and they finally succeeded in getting him out.
Here's a video from Carol at Happy Tails Rescue who took in Cheryl and Bosco, renamed Lana and Harley:
The Doodle has gone to Speaking of Dogs:
They asked me if I'd be willing to foster her but, after thinking about it for a night, I declined . Seriously not enough time and mostly I'm not ready yet.
But in a few weeks, who knows?

Yay! So happy they're all safe.
Rossy is beautiful, too.
2. Joanne says:
James..there are very few people in this world like you...you are one of a kind man.....I think you are the bomb.....
3. Definitely a doodle. Looks like a giant version of my dog.
Thanks for the good news!

Whew.... It's almost 1 AM here, but I had to know....
5. Monica says:
How wonderful that they are all safe. Great work!
6. So i just got an email from Open Arms about this weekend's transport, and sure enough, TAS is on there. I can't believe how much of a rescue you guys are. Why does the rest of Toronto not know this?? TAS needs better PR.
7. Anonymous says:
I agree Mel! I try to talk up TAS South to anyone who is interested in adopting.

My question is somewhat similar to Whole Bicycle Rack Easily Removed! Is the provider liable?, however, in this case, it was from my apartment's bike rack, which is managed.
I live in an apartment building that is managed by Meriton. We have access to a secure underground carpark, that is normally only accessible by swipe card. My road bike was locked up in one of the bike racks that are provided in this carpark.
This morning, I discovered that thieves have apparently unbolted the entire rack, and taken my bike (but left two other bikes on the rack there):
unbolted bike rack
I reported it to building management immediately, and apparently they're aware the racks are removable, and nothing was done to secure the bolts. My question is, is there anything I can do to hold the building management liable, based on their installation of the rack?
• I'm guessing from the Meriton mention that you're in Australia? If so, good luck with Meriton, you'll need it. A quick search will show they're well used to lawsuits from dissatisfied residents.

Essentially this is a legal question "Someone stole something of mine is someone else responsible". The only thing that makes this cycle related is the something was a bike.

• I feel bad for you - I had a bike stolen that was locked-up outside my gym. It's a sickening feeling :( Depends where you are but if you are going to pursue then I'd video the area and make sure there are no "contents left at owner's risk" type signs as that could be a get-out for them.
– adey_888

• At my gym my bike was ticketed for locking to the railing and not the bike rack. I told them the rack could be disassembled. Took them a year but they finally put in a valid rack.
– paparazzo
Sep 4 '14 at 11:46
• @mattnz I raised a similar objection to another question once before. The consensus at the time was that bike thefts are a unique type of question and are on topic. In fact, much of the logic in that Meta thread applies to this question more than the one I initially asked about. However, I personally wouldn't object to revisiting the issue of legal questions in Meta.

If you are insured make an insurance claim and they will follow up on any legal liability someone else might have, but you get a replacement bike quickly.
If you are not insured, you are in a lose/lose and maybe lose some more situation. You can accept that your bike got stolen and get on with life. Or you could sue a large property investment company and spend the next few years in a legal battle you cannot afford to lose digging a deep hole that is only getting deeper. Regardless of legal liability, the cost means they will laugh at you with the response "My pockets for legal fees are deeper than yours, see you in court and raise you costs". Given the risk they will win, and seek costs against you, they don't really care about how much they spend winning because you pull out - and when you do, they will seek costs anyway.
The only realistic option is ask nicely, or if your country has the concept of a small claims tribunal where you can bring a claim without paying lawyers.
As far as answering your question - apart from the fact that would be providing legal advise, its not answerable without seeing your contract and knowing what part of the world you live in.
• Also check with the manufacturer of your bike lock. Some locks come with theft insurance policies, and they may be willing to pay off even if the lock wasn't the failure point.
– keshlam
Sep 4 '14 at 2:49
• @keshlam - The bike was locked with a Kryptonite lock that I bought directly from Kryptonite in the US. However, I believe their theft insurance only covers incidents in the US - that, and the bike lock didn't actually fail, so it'd be a bit slack to go after them. Still a good thought though, thanks.
– victorhooi
Sep 4 '14 at 3:09
• Yeah, check your contract and whether this was advertised as "secure bike lock area" or similar. They might argue that it was just a metal bar you've chosen to lock your bike to; or that it was only provided as a convenient object to rest your bike against and not intended to be secure. Get close-up pictures of how the design is flawed and how the thieves got your bike from it.
– adey_888
Sep 4 '14 at 3:09
• @mattnz Thanks for your thoughts. I'm in Australia. The bike wasn't insured for theft (I normally only insure it for crashes during races/events) - it's normally locked either at work, or at my house. In this case, I had assumed a underground carpark at a managed building would be secure. I'm quite annoyed that the bike rack wasn't properly installed. I suppose it could be pursued via Small Claims. Unfortunately, we have a limit of $10,000 for Small Claims, the bike is just a touch over that, but I can still pursue but forfeit the difference. I was hoping to avoid legal action though.
– victorhooi
Sep 4 '14 at 3:13
• The value of your bike, and the fact some (looking to be of reasonable value) were left behind will make it difficult to show the management was negligent - they can argue your bike was targeted due to its high value, and therefore there was nothing reasonable they could have done to prevent it. I suggest use the Small Claims (I have had good experience of Kiwi SC courts which I imagine is similar to yours) - but my guess is if you do not loose, you will get something like a 50/50 decision.

This answer largely duplicates my answer to a similar question:
The short answer is "No, it's likely that there is nothing you can do to hold building management liable for the theft of your bike."
I am neither a lawyer nor a resident of Australia where it seems this happened, so this longer answer is to the best of my layman's understanding and you should do some more research to make sure it applies.
The key legal issue is the lack of "Bailment". For a bailment to be created the property in question has to be delivered to the bailee (a representative of Building Management) by you (the bailor), and the bailee must have both possession and control of the property. Once a bailment has been created the bailee must take reasonable steps to care for the property that has been delivered but does not normally insure the bailor against all loss of or to the property while it is in the bailee's possession unless he expressly undertakes that obligation.
What this means is that the bailee is not liable for any and all damages or loss of the property while the property is in his care; he is only liable if the bailee can be proved negligent in caring for the property. Negligence can be proved if you can show that a reasonable person in possession and control of your property would not have taken whatever action led to the loss.
So, you rode up to a rack, chained up your bike and went your way. There was no transfer of possession or control from you to Building Management. The Building Management couldn't move your bike (at least not under normal situations) and no individual implied in any way that they would look after or protect it. Even if it was obvious to a reasonable individual that the rack was poorly installed or easily circumvented, the bailment was not created in the first place, so Building Management has no duty whatsoever to protect your bike from theft or loss.
• Unlike the other question, there are other statues to consider. If the contract with management committed to provide a secure car park, and it is not secure, they have breached a contractual obligation. If you suffer a loss because of the contract breach, you have a claim or Tort.
– mattnz
Sep 4 '14 at 20:52
• I recognize that, and the link on Bailment in the answer touches on identifying whether there is a bailment or a contract in AU. Here in the US I store my bike in a "secure" garage, in a locked bike cage both of which are provided by my employer. That is still not enough to establish liability outside the existence of a contract because no representative of my employer has legal possession and control of my bike.

Your Periodic Reminder: Don’t Work For Free
Everyone is at a different point in their careers and hopefully wherever they are involves getting an amount of money for their labor and putting it in their pocket. Sometimes you run across someone who has a long, rambling statement about how they are burnt out on free work. they often appear semi-apologetic about it, as if working in a creative field requires you waste your life giving people things for zero dollars. A graphic designer writes to Salon:
Over these many years I have always donated my time and talents when asked by various nonprofits, schools, communities and churches. I enjoy seeing something succeed because of my efforts and having that going to the greater good (posters, fliers, logos, ad campaigns, banners, T-shirts, teaching, promotional efforts of all kinds, you name it and they’ve asked for it).
As of January I decided to put a moratorium on my professional services for anything that does not involve pay.
Why? Short story is people are dicks and will abuse you for all you're worth. Or not worth. There's a full response (this is an advice column or something) that you can read through if you like. It comes down to this: Don't work for free.

Papers should be no less than 10 pages (not including title page or bibliography) and include at least five scholarly sources. A peer-reviewed scholarly source is either published in a journal or book. Papers should be double-spaced, in Times New Roman, using 12 pt. font (except for footnotes, in 10 pt). Chicago Style Formatting (w/footnotes and bibliography).
Topic: discuss how 9/11 affected different religions (which religions and why), how some believed that religion led to disasters because of this disaster, but also the negative contention it had on the islam culture after what had happened, tainting their religion and how society viewed them after this horrible event.
Things to use: I will provide sources, a text from lecture, but also you may use outside PRIMARY SOURCES (PLEASE MAKE SURE TO CITE EVERYTHING THROUGHOUT THE ESSAY)
I will tip if done very well and work with you in the fututre.

Ban cockfighting in the Canary Islands, Spain
Esta petición ha conseguido 17.464 firmas
The Animal Shelter SARA, which has spent 30 years fighting against the abandonment and abuse of animals, asks His Excellency, Mayor of Teguise Don Oswaldo Betancort, to abolish the cruel and barbaric “festival” of “The Cock Fights”
The law 8/1991, 30th April, for the Protection of Animals in the Canaries, states the following in Article 5:
Art 5: The use of animals for fighting, or any other activities including festivals and shows, which cause mistreatment, cruelty and suffering is prohibited.
However, and much to everybody’s astonishment, as a “traditional festival” Cock Fighting is allowed to continue. The case with Bullfighting was the same, but eventually this was banned.
Cock fighting, the “tradition” which exists for the cruel amusement of some, is clearly an ABUSE OF ANIMALS, a fact which constitutes a CRIME under the new Penal Code.
So that everybody is informed: These por animals, the cocks, are reared and trained to fight. Many of them are only used to spar with the strongest. For sparring, their beaks are tied and their spurs are cut off so that they cannot defend themselves. They die in a most barbaric way.The strongest birds are destined for the fights, in which articficial spurs, such as blades are attached, so that the fight is as savage and as bloody as posible. This causes great suffering to the animals and meanwhile the public enjoy themselves watching the running blood of an innocent being.
The Law for Animal Protection, exempts these shows as they are considered traditional. It does, however, also acknowledge that these shows cause cruelty and abuse to animals. Thus the exception comes with certain conditions, which state: “For this reason, traditions which are rooted in some areas of the island and which involve shows such as cock fighting, and can be defended for their traditional and even cultural aspects, it is evident that these traditions are bloody and improper for a modern and evolved society. Therefore, this law encourages their natural demise through regulatory mechanisms which will impede its growth, such as PROHIBITING THE DEVELOPMENT of these shows by the Public Administration, not giving authorisation for new facilities, and especially not encouraging the transmission of these hobbies to future generations.
In accordance with the law which PROHIBITS THE DEVELOPMENT, we would like to know why, in the Budget for Subsidies of 2015, the Cock Pit of Teguise, which is responsible for these fights, was given, through the Department for Sports, 2.000€, allowing Cock Fighting to continue to exist, instead of encouraging its natural demise as indicated by the law.
Another paradox is that Teguise has an area for the protection for animals and yet still allows the abuse of cocks. Are they not also animals which should be protected from abuse?
We have seen the publicity for the season of cock fighting which starts 13th February 2016. We ask that it is cancelled and that this practice will not take place anywhere.

Question: What Happens If You Pawn Something And Don’T Pick It Up?
What happens if you don’t pay the pawn shop?
You can redeem the pawn at any time, by paying what you owe and getting the item back.
If you don’t repay the loan during the redemption period, the pawnbroker can sell it to recover the cash..
When you pawn something Is it gone forever?
Why are pawn shops bad?
Here’s why using a pawn shop is almost always a bad idea: Exorbitant interest and fees. Although you borrow money for only a few months, paying an average of 10% a month interest means that you’re paying an annual interest rate of 120%.
How long do pawn shops give you to pay back?
“A typical pawn loan may have a term length of 30 days plus a one-month grace period.” If you can’t pay back your pawn loan in full, even after an extension, you can surrender your collateral as payment in full, according to Bakke.
Can you extend a pawn loan?
If you’re unable to pay back your pawn loan in full on its due date, you can get an extension. With an extension, you are required to pay a portion of the interest owed. Then you may extend the length of your pawn loan for as many days as allowed by state law, usually 30.
Is it better to pawn or sell?
A pawn loan is less of a risk for the pawnbroker, because they aren’t as concerned about reselling the piece. If you have a valuable you don’t mind parting with and you don’t want to have to worry about paying back a loan, then it may be easier for you to just sell. You will have the extra cash you need on the spot.
Do pawn shops affect credit?
Pawn loans don’t affect credit score: Pawn loans will never, ever impact your credit. If you fail to pay back your loan, then the pawn shop will simply reclaim your item. … Even if you can’t repay the entirety of the loan, they still control the collateral you left.
What can I pawn for quick cash?
Will a pawn shop buy anything?
What are good items to pawn?
What happens if you pawn something and don’t pick it up?
The borrower may repay the pawn loan to retrieve the item on or before the due date. If you are unable to repay the loan in full when it’s due, you may pay at least the interest on the payment due date to keep the account active and renew the loan for another 30 days.
How long do you have to get something out of pawn?
Can you get your money back from a pawn shop?
Keep in mind that most pawn shops have a “no cash back” policy. If you do have to return something, you’ll probably only get back the money you spent in the form of a credit that can be used at that store only. Most pawn shops also have very limited return policies.
What will pawn shops not buy?
How much do pawn shops mark up items?
How much markup do pawn shops make? General merchandise that comes in on a daily basis (video games,guitars,sports equipment, etc) your goal is to buy it for 35–40% of its value. Knowing you are not going to get 100% of its worth when you try to resell it, you can normally expect to get 75~80%.

10 Minutes With … Karen King
c. 2007 Religion News Service (UNDATED) The Gospel of Judas caused quite a splash when it was published last year: Would it explain why he betrayed Jesus? Was this the “other side” of the story people had waited for? Would Judas be vindicated? As it turns out, not quite. Now, just in time for Easter, […]
c. 2007 Religion News Service
As it turns out, not quite.
Now, just in time for Easter, Princeton’s Elaine Pagels and Karen King of Harvard Divinity School are trying to put the fourth-century manuscript in perspective in their new book, “Reading Judas: The Gospel of Judas and the Shaping of Christianity.”
King talked about the Gospel of Judas _ written in Greek, translated into Coptic and hidden in Egypt until it was found in the 1970s _ and why it tells us more about early Christianity than about history’s most infamous turncoat.
(Soon after he betrayed Jesus, Judas died, although accounts differ on the nature of his death. He was replaced as the 12th apostle by Matthias, according to the Book of Acts.)
Q: This was written probably a century after Judas would have died. So if he didn’t write it, who did?
A: We don’t know. We just know it was a Christian writer who was very angry with other Christians who were encouraging their fellow believers to die as martyrs … and bringing sacrifice (of martyrs) to the center of Christian life and worship.
Q: So how did Judas’ name get attached to it?
A: The author wants to make the point that the bishops in the second century, who claimed their authority from the 12 apostles, are wrong (in their support of martyrdom). So if they all got it wrong, who’s left? Maybe Judas got it right.
Q: You write that this book teaches us more about debates within the early Christian community than about Judas himself. What do we learn?
A: We learn nothing new about Judas. We learn a lot new about the debates in the community over martyrdom.
Q: This is not a warm and fuzzy gospel. You describe its “strident, mocking tone and slanderous accusations.” Where does that come from?
A: The Roman persecution was tearing the early Christian community apart, and this (author) was very, very angry. Whenever Jesus laughs in the Gospel of Judas, the reader should ask what are the wrong views that he’s correcting.
Q: And what are those wrong views?
A: Several things. The author is arguing that the 12 disciples are worshipping fallen angels who desired the death and suffering of Jesus and his followers. This gospel says the true God and father of Jesus doesn’t desire blood and sacrifice.
It also argues there is no physical resurrection of the dead. The argument is the physical body dies, but the spirit-filled soul goes to live with God forever. By promising martyrs that they’ll have a physical resurrection, the Gospel of Judas is saying, that’s a lie.
Q: All this talk about dying for God sounds a lot like the debate going on within Islam about holy martrydom.
A: The most important lesson there is the way in which … people who are arguing against giving yourself over to violence, who were arguing against martyrdom, were silenced.
The great history of the church called the blood of the martyrs the seeds of the church. The voices who said no to that, who said this is not what God wants, they were silenced until we found the Gospel of Judas.
What we’re seeing now is those Muslims who want to criticize the suicide bombings are much in the same way being silenced, being told they’re not real Muslims. We need to make space to hear the voices who are arguing against violence.
Q: Let’s go back to the Judas we all know, and the most obvious question you ask in the book, which is, “Why would a troubled disciple betray his master, Jesus?”
A: This text is saying that he did hand Jesus over, but the handing him over was not a betrayal, but a revelation that death cannot kill the soul, that the Resurrection of Jesus is a spiritual resurrection.
Q: What do we know about the relationship between Jesus and Judas?
A: All we know is the very bare-bones picture, that someone inside the Jesus movement _ someone close to Jesus _ betrayed him. As the gospel got told over and over again, they were trying to answer this question, how could anyone betray him? They kept coming up with different answers _ greed, disappointment, and finally they came up with this notion that he was following God in doing the right thing. But it’s all speculation.
Q: Matthew’s Gospel says Judas hanged himself out of guilt; Acts said he was disemboweled in a field. Does it make a difference why or how Judas died?
A: The Gospel of Judas says the 12 disciples stoned Judas to death, so they make him a victim of the disciples, the first Christian martyr.
Q: Many people have called these “other” Gospels _ the ones that didn’t make it into the Bible _ full of heresy. Is the Gospel of Judas heretical?
A: If you’re asking as a historian, we’d say the gospel gives us a better, broader picture, of the history of Christianity.
If you’re asking if this should have authority (as Scripture), or if it’s heretical, you have to judge it against the tenets of orthodox Christianity. In that case, it’s clearly heretical because it denies a physical resurrection.
Q: There are several parts in this gospel where the text is either missing or unintelligible. Do you ever wonder if maybe the really important stuff somehow got left out?
A: We’re dying to know what that is. When it was found, the gospel was in almost perfect condition. They couldn’t find a buyer so they put it in a safety deposit box for 17 years, where it literally fell into thousands of pieces. The pity is that if it had been immediately put into the hands of professional conservators, then we would have it all.

A penny is an American coin. It is worth one cent. They are minted in Denver, Philadelphia, and formerly San Francisco. The Philly, and Mile High mints make pennies every year. San Francisco still makes money, but it's illegal to spend. [?] Every 50 years during a year of 9 (most recently 2009), they make the back of the penny honor Abe Lincoln.
Should you wish to request a citation please leave a [?] after the subject you wish confirmed.

In this lesson we will explain how to install and use VNC on your raspberry Pi. This will allow you to see your Raspberry Pi's desktop remotely in a graphical way, using the mouse as if you were sitting in front of your Pi.
Connecting to a Pi like this can save on desktop clutter, and the problem of having multiple keyboards and mice all over the place. It also means you can put your Pi somewhere else on the network, but still control it.
Installing VNC
SSH (see http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-6-using-ssh/overview) is often all you need to control your Raspberry Pi, however sometimes it is useful to be able to remote control your Raspberry Pi using the mouse and seeing just what you would see on the screen of the Raspberry Pi.
VNC (Virtual Network Connection) is a standard for doing just this. To use it, you have to install some software on your Pi. There are a number of VNC server applications, and the one we are going to use is called “tightvnc”.
We can install the VNC server software using the SSH connection that we established earlier.
Enter the following command into your SSH terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tightvncserver
You will be prompted to confirm installation by typing “Y' and finally when installation is complete, you should see the following:
We now need to run the VNC Server, so enter the following command into your SSH window:
vncserver :1
You will be prompted to enter and confirm a password. It would make sense to use “raspberry” for this, but passwords are limited to 8 characters, so I use “raspberr”. Note that this is the password that you will need to use to connect to the Raspberry Pi remotely.
You will also be asked if you want to create a separate “read-only” password – say no.
From now on, the only command that you need to type within your SSH to start the VNC server will be:
vncserver :1
The VNC server is now running and so we can attempt to connect to it, but first we must switch to the computer from which we want to control the Pi and setup a VNC client to connect to the Pi.
Using a VNC Client
Again, there are many VNC clients, of which “VNCViewer” (http://www.realvnc.com) is available for most platforms and I have found it to work well with TightVNC.
When you first run VNCViewer, you will see the following:
Enter the IP address of your Raspberry Pi, append :1 (to indicate the port) and click on “Connect”. You will then get a warning message. Just click 'Continue'.
The following window will then popup for you to enter your password (“raspberr”).
Finally, the VNC window itself should appear. You will be able to use the mouse and do everything as if you were using the Pi's keyboard mouse and monitor, except through your other computer.
As with SSH, since this is working over your network, your Pi could be situated anywhere, as long as it is connected to your network.
Built in Screen Sharing
There's also a built in VNC app for the Mac OS X that you may be able to use without installing any software
From the Finder, select Go -> Connect to Server… and type vnc:// (or whatever the IP is) to connect.
Running VNCServer at Startup
This method will only work if you have set your Pi to automatically log into the desktop environment. See Lesson 2.
Connecting to your Raspberry Pi remotely with VNC is fine as long as your Pi does not reboot. If it does, then you either have to connect with SSH and restart the VNC Server or arrange for the VNC Server to run automatically after the Raspberry Pi reboots.
There are several different methods of arranging for some code to be run as the Pi starts. The method described below is probably the easiest to use. You can adapt it to run other commands instead of starting the VNC server.
Step 1.
Open a Terminal session on the Pi, or connect using SSH. A new terminal or SSH session will automatically start you off in your home directory of /home/pi. If you are not in this directory, change to it by typing:
$ cd /home/pi
Then cd to the .config directory by typing:
$ cd .config
Note the '.' at the start of the folder name. This makes it a hidden folder that will not show up when you type 'ls'.
Step 2.
Issue the command below to create a new directory inside .config called 'autostart'.
$ mkdir autostart
cd into that new directory by typing:
$ cd autostart
Step 3.
All that remains is to edit a new configuration file. So type the following command to open the nano editor on the new file:
$ nano tightvnc.desktop
Edit the contents of the file with the following text.
[Desktop Entry]
Exec=vncserver :1
Type ctrl-X and then Y to save the changes to the file.
Thats all there is to it. The next time you reboot the VNC server will restart automatically.
Mac Screen and File Sharing
If you are a Mac user and have a few Macs on your network, then you will probably be used to seeing other Macs in the network automatically show up in the Finder, so that you can log on to them and browse the file system or even remote control them.
The screen sharing feature of Macs uses VNC, so if you already have TightVNC server installed (as we do) then with a bit of configuration, we can get it to be recognized by other Macs on the network.
The tutorial here: http://4dc5.com/2012/06/12/setting-up-vnc-on-raspberry-pi-for-mac-access/ explains how to do this. It also includes the installation of TightVNC server, which you do not need to repeat as we already have that.
Once its all set up, you will be able to connect to the file system of your raspberry Pi.
Remember to change the user field to pi and as usual the default password is 'raspberry'.
This makes it super-easy to copy files back and forth between your Mac and Pi.
If you click on the Share Screen button, you will get another login prompt.
This time, the password is the password you set up for the VNC server – I suggested 'raspberr'. That is with the 'y' missing from the end.
You should then get a VNC window using the Mac's built-in VNC viewer.
Test & Configure
Being able to connect to your Pi remotely like this can be really useful. However, as with SSH, you need to know its IP address to be able to connect. It is a good idea to set the lease time to be as long as possible on your home router.
To do this, log into your home router, find the DHCP settings page and set the DHCP lease time to as long as possible or select a Permanent Lease option if it is available.
This will help to ensure that your Pi always gets the same IP address.
If you are experienced at network configuration, you can change your raspberry Pi to have a static IP address, but this can lead to problems if you move your Pi between different networks.
If you require a different screen size for your VNC screen, then you can configure VNC by adding the following options to the end of the command to start the VNC server. This applies to both starting the VNC server manually or setting it to start automatically.
vncserver :1 -geometry 1440x900
The figures after -geometry are the screen width and height in pixels.

MARCUS POP FOOD: Old Harlem Meets New Harlem
Old Harlem Meets New Harlem
Opening weeks. It's been hectic, but the overwhelming response we've gotten so far has been humbling. We just started up lunch service today and have already hosted our first Gospel Brunch.
I love watching the progression of this place. It's exciting and motivates me and the team.
I also enjoy connecting with our customers, especially Harlemites who know the original Red Rooster well. Their stories about late nights and legendary performances are fascinating, and it's exciting when they bring in photos to show me.
I'm encouraging people to bring in their own photos, and share their stories, so we can post them around Red Rooster.
I know there's been a lot of talk lately about old Harlem against new Harlem, like I saw in New York Times' recent article, but I embrace Harlem as a whole.
With all the back and forth, it seems everyone has forgotten that Harlem is beautiful because of it's rich history and diversity. But history comes with time and change.
The same thing is happening in Smogen, where my dad is from and I spent a lot of my childhood. It's an old fishing town that is drawing attention from a young, hip and wealthy crowd of Swedes.
The conversation there is the same as it is here in Harlem - should the fisherman sell their homes to the wealthy and move elsewhere or should they stand their ground?
It's important to remember that Harlem didn't always appear as it did during its Renaissance and it won't look this 50 years from now.
By then, I hope to be a part of "old Harlem", embracing the new.
It feels good to have created a space that not only brings people together for a good time and delicious food, but also created 80 jobs, most of which went to people within the community.
One of our line cooks, Richard, is C-CAP grad I met through the organization. He's a graduate of Johnston & Wales, one of the most prestigious culinary universities in the US and was born and raised up the block from where I live now.
Richard has seen Harlem change over the years, and I'm happy to have him on the team.
Our progression is steady. With lunch and brunch now in place, we're planning our first cooking classes to help encourage kids in the neighborhood to be more empowered through food and cooking.
My goal of being inclusive to the public are slowly being realized every day.

Fine win for the Wolfpack as they take the points at Worthing

National League Division 2 Worthing Raiders 22 Bury St Edmunds 24
Bury survived a nervous last few minutes to claim victory on the South Coas, writes Simon Lord
Neither side played with the fluency they are often associated with, so the game therefore, never really developed as a spectacle until the closing moments when the tension levels rose.
It had been hoped that the two mid-table teams would throw of the shackles and produce an entertaining game, but the error count from both sides resulted in numerous stoppages, not aided by an official who seemed intent in getting his messages across, rather than letting the game flow.
The match started in disastrous fashion for Bury as they shipped a try within 45 seconds of the start. Jack Harvey’s box kick was a little too deep, but that didn’t account for some woeful defending as Matt Mclean ran almost 50m without a hand being placed on him for a try!
You may also want to watch:
Stung into action Bury began to put pressure on the hosts but a mis-firing line-out twice allowed Worthing to escape.
The game was fast, but far too loose for Bury’s liking and silly mistakes were costing them. What was good was Bury’s kick chase, one of which forced Worthing into conceding a 5m scrum. Sam Bixby drove well off the back of the scrum to create the space for Jaid Wiltshire to go over for the first of his two tries.
Most Read
Anton Limlei converted and then five minutes later scored himself to stretch Bury out to a 14-5 lead. A solid line-out just inside the Worthing half was sped out to Ben Leng who timed his perfectly to send Mark Kohler racing away. The winger was dragged down 10 metres short but the Wolfpack support players were up quickly and Limlei strolled over.
The second period again got off to a scrappy start before Bury scored a glorious try.
Tui Uru did really well to deflect a line-out Bury’s way before Pat Robinson then made good yards down the middle of the field. The ball was then sent left and once again Ben Leng timed his pass superbly to create the space for Wiltshire to run into. The speedster then had enough pace to just get over the line before the cover tacklers arrived.
With Limlei once again adding the extras, things looked rosy for Bury at 24-8 up.
However, the resulting re start saw Bury penalised for offside and Worthing took advantage to kick to the 22m line.
The ball was then worked in field before weak tackling once again allowed Curtis Barnes in for a soft try.
An unseemly squabble involving several players resulted in a yellow card being shown to Worthing’s Forrest, but quite why it took the officials so long to come to that decision was a mystery.
It appeared the game was drifting to an uneventful conclusion until with eight minutes to go Worthing rounded of a penalty advantage with some deft handling to create the space for Barnes to squeeze over by the corner flag.
Mclean’s tremendous conversion into the strong cross wind suddenly made it a two-point game.
Worthing smelt blood but Bury remained calm to see the victory through.

“I was trying to figure out why people give their lives for their beliefs and country”
— Interview with Arif Shamim, author The Ameer is Dead
The News on Sunday: The English fiction coming out of Pakistan is mostly political, forming part of a large post 9/11 corpus. Did you feel constrained about “writing for a Western audience”?
Arif Shamim: No, that was not my intention. My focus was Waziristan. Why people from all over the world come to the wild west of Pakistan? Did I get my answer or did I succeed in highlighting the real issue, it is for the readers to decide. When I started writing it, I was more concerned about bombings and drone attacks in Pakistan. Yes, there is the imperative sense of anger, loss and empathy that you might have seen throughout the story.
TNS: We see the angst in ordinary urban characters against the West’s double standards etc. in different works of fiction but I don’t think anybody has attempted to look at the terrorists’ own lives so closely or humanised them in this way before. Did you deliberately decide to focus on the complexity of the problem?
AS: Yes, exactly. No matter what we do, we are human and will remain so — in our love, anxiety, rage and even in our helplessness. Ameer Nusrat remained so till his death when he tried to touch his imaginary tale. How many murders does it take to turn one into a beast, I ask.
As journalists, we are bombarded daily with news of death and destruction, of bombs and suicide bombings. We can’t be indifferent to the happenings around us and, unfortunately, at least in the last two decades we have only seen death and destruction.
Read also: Review of ‘The Ameer is Dead
For me, there is no such thing as a planned life. Life is never planned. We make decisions based on our impulses and circumstances. But at the same time we all know that what is right for somebody could be wrong for others. Even the concept of beauty varies from culture to culture. During the course of my research, I found out that we always write one side of the story. One needs to find out what goes on in the mind of someone who is going to end his own life and with him the lives of many others.
I let the characters develop. Since I was their creator, I knew that they all have to die in the end. What came in between just came with the flow as the story developed.
Once I wrote a small play in the form of a column for BBC Urdu. It was about the last night of a Palestinian suicide bomber and the conflicts in his mind.
But in The Ameer is Dead all other characters were born with the death of Ameer Nusrat. I mean, initially I only had Ameer’s death in mind. But then, like the transoceanic nature of the conflict, other characters emerged from different parts of the world.
So when I started writing, I was trying to figure out why people sacrifice their lives for their beliefs, for their religion, and even for their country. In the case of soldiers what makes them kill others, and in the case of suicide bombers what make them sacrifice their lives in order to kill others. It is all very complex. But I have tried to explain it using the liberty of fiction or by hiding behind it.
TNS: Tell us something about the form. Did you have the story in your mind for a long time before you could figure out the form?
AS: There have been many drones killing high-profile al-Qaeda and Taliban leaders. My fictional lead character is born out of these drone deaths. Actually, once I was with some senior army officers who were reading transcripts of conversations amongst the Taliban after the death of one of their leaders. I requested to read some of them and I was shocked to see the scale of the problem — in those conversations, everybody was talking about killing others or how to plan more deaths. It all seemed surreal but it was as real as death itself. I wrote four profiles and then purposely merged them together to show one life.
TNS: What about the four characters of Ameer Nusrat, Asim, Yashar and Abdul that you have developed. How much of these are drawn from reality and how much of it is fiction? Did you think through these characters till the end or did you let them develop and assume a life of their own?
The characters are fictional and real at the same time. Ameer Nusrat is as real as any other ameer who died in a drone attack. Asim is the depiction of all young men who knowingly or unknowingly get caught in the quagmire of death for whatever they believe in. Yashar is in fact what Uzbekistan is today: a nation suppressed first by communist Soviets and then by a dictator. And Abdul shows the character of an ordinary person in southern Punjab and how the mushrooming growth of madrassas has affected society over there.
TNS: How easy or difficult it was to research on areas like Uzbekistan and Afghanistan or even Waziristan. How did you do it?
AS: This is very interesting. I have never been to Afghanistan and Uzbekistan. I read many books, scanned many libraries and flew over both countries with the help of Google Map. Believe me, using Google Map to scale the areas and distances between different parts of Afghanistan and Uzbekistan was a very exciting experience. It took me more than a month to find a route which is not very common, but from where Yashar, my Uzbek character, can cross the border. Uzbekistan was the toughest part of the book.
To get in the mind of Yashar, I needed to know the country, its people, politics and history. I tried to read everything I could lay my hands on, even their culinary books.
TNS: How was the experience of publishing online, which may be the first for a Pakistani author? Do you think it will exclude a certain kind of readership and at the same time attract an even bigger and younger readership?
AS: I am not the first Pakistani author to get published online. There are a few others too. Juggernaut Books, my publisher, has also published Umera Ahmed, Ali Akbar Natiq and even Husain Haqqani. I am not sure but I could be the only fiction writer who wrote a novel on Waziristan; at least that was the case when I started writing my novel.
TNS: You are at your next novel already, we believe. What is it about?
AS: I don’t know. There are a couple of ideas but my lazy self is sleeping over them. Let’s see what the future holds.

The End of an Age: Remembering September 11, 2001
- President Gordon B. Hinckley (October 2001 General Conference).
On Sept. 11, 2001 I was at work cleaning and polishing the bowling alleys at Brigham Young University when my manager arrived and reported that a plane had just crashed into a building in New York. Before long a crowd had gathered in the common's area outside the recreation room to watch the news reports. The crowd was getting larger, and the commotion was considerable enough that we stopped what we were doing for a moment. We watched the horrific scenes, and soon the university president had called for students to gather in several different places on campus for a moment of silence and prayer.
At the same time, my dad was composing a letter from his office in Indiana to one of my little brothers who was serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in San Diego:
"I'm writing this as I listen to the horrible news of terrorist
attacks in NY and DC. Needless to say, this changes everything, the end
of an age, I have a feeling. Everything will be seen in a new light- or
darkness. The illusion that we mortals have perfect control of our fate
and are entitled to ease, comfort, and every right we can invent, is
presumably shattered...
...It is natural and healthy to hope to live out our lives in
peace, comfort, normalcy - but this is not the Peace we are promised.
I'm just listening to the report that one of the towers
collapsed completely. Massive casualties; panic on the streets.
Now there is a report of car bomb outside the State Dept in DC.
Now the second tower of the Trade Center has collapsed. This is war; a
new kind of war, or something in a way worse than war.
God bless us. --Dad"
Eleven years later, a lot has changed. Counter-terrorism efforts have increased, Osama Bin Laden has been killed and his body disposed of into the ocean, and new buildings are being erected where the World Trade Center Towers once stood.
But in some ways, things remain the same. Many Americans are as complacent as ever, if not more so. On one extreme, there are those who are forgetful or remain indifferent to the tragedy because it didn't directly affect them or their families. On another extreme, there are those who recall the events of 9/11 in order to justify violence or a distorted sense of retribution in the name of a narrowly defined form of patriotism. In the wake of such a tragedy, and during a politically charged presidential election season, media pundits call for more unity, but there seems to be little, if any, discussion of what unity means or how it is created. Real unity cannot be created ex-nihilo, but necessarily a depends upon shared principles and common beliefs, such as those expressed so eloquently in The Declaration of Independence.
September 11, 2001 is a day in history to be remembered.

10 Steps to Onboarding Success
New hires perform best when they feel integrated into a company and are relaxed, stimulated and having fun. Onboarding success occurs when new arrivals are in a supportive but structured background. All research indicates that employees who are successfully onboarded are likely to be more highly engaged and stay with an organization for longer periods. Effective onboarding saves companies as much as 3 x the annual employee salary as well as hiring costs.
Read “Why onboarding is vital”
The first 90 days are critical to your success in a new role. Here are some exercise to complete to help you or your employees succeed.
1. Attentive listening
The number one tip from any HR professional or coach for the first 90 days is to listen and observe and ask the right questions.
2. Create solid relationships
Building new relationships is also key to success in a new organization. While there are various relationships that are important to build, the priority focus should be on:
• Bosses
• PeersAttentive listening
• Direct Reports
• Colleagues
These relationships are critical to anchoring the foundations for success especially for anyone joining a new organisation in a leadership role. It is particularly important to establish the preferred communication style of the people around you in today’s working environment of complex and multiple communication channels. Do they like F2F, text, intranet, IM, phone, weekly report?
3.Learn about the existing culture
You might have been hired as a disruptor but before you can make any changes you have to understand the existing culture. Showing respect for existing systems will be important to getting everyone on side. Talk to people to see what they think works and what they would tweak and what they would throw away all together. Lose the words “in my old company….” from your vocabulary. Use the traffic light exercise to structure your questions. traffic lights
4. Be open and approachable
It’s important to be open and accessible from the outset. In the early days introductions communicate how excited you are to be joining the company and suggest meeting people for coffee. If you inherit a team you will want to meet them individually as well as together as a group. Prepare your introduction in advance so you keep it short and to the point.
5. Manage expectations
From the beginning it’s important to set and receive clear ideas, both for your team and your boss. See the previous questions so you know what questions to ask.
• What is your day-to-day role?
• What are your objectives short, medium and long-term.
• How will they measure success? Who will do that and when?signpost
This is especially important if it is linked to your compensation.
7. Be relaxed and yourself
Starting a new job is always stressful and you can be nervous. It’s always best to be your best confident self. If you don’t feel that and can’t fake it ‘til you make it (within reason) invest in a coach. There is a difference between feeling the fear and doing it anyway and coming over as false and inauthentic. Creating an atmosphere of trust is important and being true to yourself will play a key role.
8. Create alliances
Creating strategic alliances is key to any onboarding process. Finding your way around the sub text of any new organisational culture is important. Very often there are back door ways of doing things that as a newbie you won’t know. So whether it’s how to get a jump on office supplies, IT issues solved quickly, or key decisions made, then forming alliances with others will be useful. This can be from knowing who the janitor is to accepting help and support from Businessman-introducing-t-007reports and colleagues.
Additionally cultivate a mentor either officially or unofficially, someone who can show you the ropes. Maybe invest in a coach which can be privately supported or by your company. This will depend on your seniority. Some new hires have strong support networks in their sector or general friendship groups or networks. Others rely on family members.
8. Go for small early wins
In the movies new hires come up with dramatic solutions early on. My experience suggests that this rarely happens in the real world. When you are in onboarding mode the listening element is vital. If you can address some minor but highly visible niggles to give you some early wins, that would be a good place to start. At this stage building trust is more important than dramatic show boating which may carry risk.
9. Build or strengthen your team
Building your team or strengthening it will be important. Here are some questions you can ask your reports to cement those relationships.
• What does success look like to them?
• What do they expect from a manager?
• What do they expect from team members?
• What do they want their colleagues to think about them? Name 3 qualities or characteristics.
• What are their key 5 strengths with a story to illustrate and an object that show cases each team leaderone?
• Who is their Chief Doubting Officer – the little voice in your head that holds them back? Who does he or she look like? When is he or she present?
• What do they need to work on for their personal development?
• What value do people get from working with them?
• What are the top 5 experiences they feel when working with them?
• What makes them special?
• How do they prefer to handle conflict?
10. Create a mission statement
Many new hires they need to arrive at a company with a vision already in mind or compelled to make a big announcement quickly following their arrival. Generally new hires who indicate their first role will be to listen make the greatest progress. You can’t always promise to implement what the people around you want, but you can guarantee to give thoughtful consideration to their input. At that point you can make a collaborative mission statement in line with departmental objectives against which you will all be measured.
To produce a mission statement that truly motivates and excites all stakeholders take time to get full buy-in.

SF vs BAL in the Harbowl
Some random thoughts about yesterday's Conference Championship games.
1) One person tweeted back to us after the (AFC) game: "I wasn't totally believing the Pats are cursed- I was 75% with you. INT made me 100%." I believe there is a certain psychological element to all of this. Belichick looked like he was stoned on some of those decisions for punts. Call it guilt or whatever you want. He did not coach to win the game.
I have watched the replay of the Tyree helmet catch so many times and I have to believe it is evidence of divine intervention. I really thought that the Pats would win vs BAL and maximize their pain the following game in an ever larger loss to the NFC (Niners) in XLVII. NE lost Gronkowski last year in the AFC Championship, and his high ankle sprain in XLVI was a HUGE difference in the Gmen winning. So Gronk goes down again last week with a broken forearm… poof… the Patriots have just lost a huge part of their offense. And then Talib goes down, and the dominance of NE in the early part of the game seemingly vaporized as fast as it did for Dallas in the 2007 Divisional playoffs when Flozell Adams went down.
2) I think I may need to rename this blog the TE blog. TIGHT ENDS RULE! How many times have mentioned how important they are in the red zone? To the regular audience here, way too many times. Well, yesterday's display of GREAT Tight End play was a clinic in seeing how vital they are in today's NFL. Tony Gonzalez. Vernon Davis. Dennis Pitta. And see above (1) for the ABSENCE of Gronk. Aaron Hernandez is not too shabby either. These guys gash opposing defenses. And the biggest thing I saw was how they broke offensive logjams for their QBs and Offensive Coordinators. In the first game, SF couldn't buy a yard on offense in Q1. Literally. In Q2, it ignited off of ONE single pass to Vernon Davis. The rest was like an avalanche. It was like the floodgates opened. Whatever imagery you want to use, from that point on, the Niners scored 28 points. And let's remember that Akers missed an easy FG AND Crabtree fumbled at the 1 yd line, or else it could have been 38 points. TEs are huge. They stress Safeties. They can't be guarded well by LBers after the line of scrimmage. And then when you get these freaks like (a healthy) Gronk, Vernon Davis and Jimmy Graham, they can run wild on you.
In the BAL game, the same thing happened. The BAL offense was having all kinds of trouble. It was my opinion that Belichick had decided to take away the Flacco love affair with the long ball w 2 deep safeties, so you had to go underneath with crossing routes. Well, the WR crossing routes did not get used until later in the game, and that was big. But before that, the thing that got BAL's offense lubed was big passing plays to Dennis Pitta. Pitta is no TE rockstar. He is workmanlike in everything he does. He does not have the speed that guys like Davis and Graham have. But he can carve you up quietly. 5 receptions. 55 yards. 1 TD. Not bad for a guy who was taken in R4 right behind .. Aaron Hernandez.
Of course we did not even mention the swan song for the Legend, Tony Gonzalez. Everyone knows that Tony is going straight to Canton. What an exit he made. If he could have carried the team on his back singlehandedly, he would have. At the end of the game the 49ers were bracketing Gonzalez because they KNEW he was money. It forced Ryan to go away from him, and the result was a mess- no points in the second half.
Let's look at the totals for these players:
Tight End Targeted Receptions Yards TDs
Gonzalez 8 8 78 1
Davis 6 5 106 1
Pitta 7 5 55 1
Hernandez 14 9 83 0
Now is this a statement for the importance of getting the ball to this position? These guys AVERAGED ~9 targets per player. And they had a 77% reception rate. Add in the double teams, and how valuable are these guys? Target them often.
3) Not sure why, but it was surprising how Kaepernick was not used on the Read Option. Nearly every time, they went to the RB. I remember Kaepernick running once all game. (The very effective check down scramble does not count.) You need balance and a big part of the way the Niners will beat BAL is with stressing of the Ravens Defense with the Read Option. You need to mix it up, so let's see some CP QB runs.
3a) Speaking of Kaepernick, where did this guy come from? Well, he was no surprise to our two draft analysts, who both loved him two springs ago. Pete had him in green, one of his 5 undervalued picks ranked 38th in the Draft: "Terrific Leader, big QB, good arm, does have it between the ears. Quality pick in R2. The QBs in R2 will be as good as the QBs taken in R1." Wonder also had him in green, one of his 5 undervalued players in the Draft, ranked at 41st in the Draft: "I like him more than most. Fast, strong, leader, good arm, good runner, worthy of attention in R2 (Colts, Pats, develop him!) or early R3. Could be a good pro." Every QB gets taken high, so when the 49ers took him in R2 at #36 in the Draft, that was a pretty respectable endorsement of his prospects.

Facts about Seneca
Born: c. 5
Died: 65 (suicide)
Birthplace: Cordoba, Spain
Best known as: Stoic philospher and playwright of the first century
Buy from Books by Seneca
Seneca Biography
Name at birth: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, sometimes referred to as Seneca the Younger, was a Stoic philosopher and writer in imperial Rome during the first century AD.
Born in Cordoba, Spain into nobility, little is known about his early life. Given the position of his father, Seneca the Elder, it is assumed he had early training for a public life.
Seneca published frequently and his rhetorical skills made him popular and wealthy, but he ran afoul of emperors from time to time during his political career.
Caligula nearly had him executed and Claudius exiled him to Corsica, but when he returned to Rome he continued to gain wealth and influence. A tutor of young Nero, Seneca later became one of his imperial advisors.
As a philosopher, Seneca’s primary focus was on morals. His advocacy of the simple life and claims that money isn’t everything have drawn criticism over the centuries, given that Seneca was not only rich, he was often drawn into political intrigue.
Widely read during his lifetime, Seneca was also revisited by Renaissance thinkers, and his tragedies are said to have influenced Elizabethan England.
Accused of participating in a plot against Nero, Seneca was compelled to commit suicide in 65 A.D.
Some of his more famous works include Letters to Lucillius and Letters of a Stoic, and his plays Thyestes, Medea and Oedipus.
Extra credit
It has been suggested that one reason for Seneca’s popularity is that her wrote in Latin instead of the Greek usually preferred by philosophers.

Paterson has a secret plan to fund the MTA
Categories : Asides, Doomsday Budget
5 Responses to “Paterson has a secret plan to fund the MTA”
1. Josh K says:
A secret plan to fund the MTA? How about just appropriating realistic levels of funding from the state and city general funds, like they should have been doing for the past 50 years?
Or how about just wiping out the debt to bondholders? If the MTA weren’t paying out so much in interest, it would be a lot more financially sound.
Or even just doing what the Ravitch Commission suggested. Or congestion pricing. Anyone of these things would have gotten the MTA out of the hole it is in now.
Most likely Patterson has some hair brained scheme that is based on faulty math, that is un-passable, as well as just being down right annoying to ALL parties involved. Can we just skip ahead to the 2010 gubernatorial elections and get Cuomo in already? I’m no fan of the duopoly system of politics in Albany, but at least Cuomo is sane.
P.S. on an semi-unrelated note, one of the auto-generated google ads on this page is for “Support Joe Bruno”/ http://www.justiceforbruno.com . I don’t think Bruno ever lifted a finger to help the MTA unless he could wrangle some copious amounts of pork for his district out of it. Hilarious irony in so many ways.
2. Fairness says:
I have zero faith in Paterson being able to do anything significant on any matter that faces this state. He has proven to be just as horrible a governor as GWB was a president.
3. herenthere says:
Uh-oh…he’s sleeping with the senate…
4. Ariel says:
This reminds me of when Paterson kept his U.S. Senate selection a secret just to attract media attention. We all know how annoying that got, and this is along the same lines.
If you have a secret plan to purse in the back room, why announce it? We really need a new governor.
1. […] Paterson has a secret plan for the MTA. After debuting this fact on Wednesday, Paterson spent all day on Thursday talking […]

Garage (residential)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Garage (house))
Jump to: navigation, search
For other uses, see Garage (disambiguation).
A residential garage (/ˈɡærɪ/ or /ˈɡærɑːʒ/; Latin meaning: [gōː-raːgɛ]) is a walled, roofed structure for storing a vehicle or vehicles that is part of or attached to a home, or which is an associated outbuilding or shed. Residential garages typically have space for one or two cars, although three-car garages are used. When a garage is attached to a house, the garage typically has an entry door into the house. Garages normally have a wide door which can be raised to permit the entry and exit of a vehicle, and then closed to secure the vehicle. A garage protects a vehicle from precipitation, and, if it is equipped with a locking garage door, it also protects the vehicle(s) from theft and vandalism.
Some garages have an electrical mechanism to automatically open or close the garage door when the homeowner presses a button on a small remote control. Some garages have enough space, even with cars inside, for the storage of items such as bicycles or a lawnmower; in some cases, there may even be enough space for a workshop or a man cave. Garages that are attached to a house may be built with the same external materials and roofing as the house. Garages that are not connected to the home may use a different style of construction from the house. In some places, the term is used synonymously with "carport", though that term normally describes a structure that, while roofed, is not completely enclosed. A carport protects the vehicle to some degree from inclement weather, but it does not protect the vehicle from theft or vandalism.
Residential garage insulation[edit]
In northern climates, temperatures inside in uninsulated attached residential garages can drop to freezing levels in the winter. Temperatures inside uninsulated attached garages in temperate climates can reach uncomfortable levels during summer months. Extreme temperatures can be a source of energy waste and discomfort in adjoining living areas, due to heat transfer between the garage and those areas. Homes with attached garages often have this "interface" problem. Insulating just the outside of the building against the elements without extending the insulation to the garage walls and roof is a costly mistake.[1]
In Australia[edit]
A garage in Belo Horizonte, Brazil
Australian homes typically have a two, one and a half or double car garage, with some newer houses having a triple garage, with one double door and one single door. Prior to the 1970s most of them were detached from the house, usually set further back with the driveway leading up past the side of the house, common with old fibreboard houses, but not uncommon with earlier brick houses. The most common doors on these garages were either 2 wooden barn style doors with a standard sized access door on the side of the garage, or the B&D Rolla Door, which is described below.
The most common garage door to date in Australia is the B&D Rolla Door, having been around since 1956 and still in heavy use today. They are a corrugated flexible but strong sheet steel door, sliding up tracks and rolling around a drum mounted above the door opening on the inside of the garage. These come in manual and remote controlled electric (known as the Control-a-Door), with conversion kits available. Locking is provided by a key lock in the centre of the door moving two square sliding lock bars in and out of holes in the door tracks, locking and unlocking it, or by the solenoid lock in the automatic motor.
Newer homes feature more American styled tilting panel lift doors which slide up onto a track on the ceiling via a motor and chain drive. Since the late 1970s most if not all garages are attached, and throughout the 80's it became more common to have an access door into the home from the garage where design permitted, whereas it is commonplace now. Most older unit (apartment) blocks in Australia have garages on the ground floor accessible through a common hallway and access doors, all leading into a common driveway. Newer ones now have underground parking.
In the United Kingdom[edit]
Up-and-over garage door
Insulation of Sectional garage door
British homes featuring a garage typically have a single or double garage either built into the main building, detached within the grounds (often in the back garden), or in a communal area.
The common term for these structures in the first decades of the 20th century was motor house. Traditionally, garage doors were wooden, opening either as two leaves or sliding horizontally. Newer garages are fitted with metal up-and-over doors. Increasingly, in new homes, such doors are electrically operated.
Typically, a small British single garage is 8 by 16 feet (2.4 m × 4.9 m), a medium single garage is 9 by 18 feet (2.7 m × 5.5 m), and a large single garage is 10 by 20 feet (3.0 m × 6.1 m). Family sedans have become bigger than they were in the past, so the larger size has become a preferred option. A typical large family car like the Ford Mondeo is about 15 by 6 feet (4.6 m × 1.8 m), meaning that even with the larger size garage, it is necessary to park to one side to be able to open the driver's door wide enough to enter or exit the vehicle.
In the early days of the motor car, a garage played in important role in protecting the vehicle from the weather (particularly so as to reduce rust). It was also the case that early motor cars started more easily when they were warm,[2] so that keeping them in a garage rather than outside made it easier to get the engine going in the morning. Modern motor cars, however, are very well protected against rust, and modern engines start with no difficulty even in very cold conditions.
In North America[edit]
A modern one-car garage, in the USA
Many garage doors open upward using an electric chain drive, which can often be remotely controlled from the resident's vehicle with a small radio transmitter.[3] Garages are connected to the nearest road with a driveway. Interior space for one or two cars is typical, and garages built since the 1950s typically have a door directly connecting the garage to the interior of the house (an "attached garage"). Earlier garages were often detached and located in the back yard of the house, accessed either via a long driveway or from an alley.
In the past, garages were often separate buildings from the house ("detached garage"). On occasion, a garage would be built with an apartment above it, which could be rented out. As automobiles became more popular, the idea of attaching the garage directly to the home grew into a common practice. While a person with a separate garage must walk outdoors in every type of weather, a person with an attached garage has a much shorter walk inside a building.
Garages are often found where the attic entrance is located. Also used to store tools, bicycles and lawn equipment most garages have unfinished concrete floors. Some garages include a separate storage room to partially alleviate this problem.
Around the start of the 21st century, companies began offering "portable garages" in the United States. Mostly, these garages are made of metal and do not attach to the house or other structure, much like the garages built prior to the 1960s. Many homeowner's associations frown upon the installation of these nonconforming buildings, but still, their popularity is growing.
Garage flooring companies can install flooring products that are not generally available to the homeowner, providing a coating system that will last may years. These include epoxies, stained concrete and modular garage tiles (PVC vinyl, polypropylene or other polymers) to name a few.
Notable garages[edit]
The first planned private garages appeared long before 1900. Early examples of planned public garages appeared at the same time. The first recorded public parking garage in the US (Electric Vehicle Company Garage,[4] Chicago) was build in 1898, in the UK (Christal Palace Garage,[5] London) in 1900 and in Germany (Großgarage der Automüller G.m.b.H.,[6] Berlin-Wilmersdorf) in 1901.
One of the oldest surviving private garage in Germany today is the 1903 finished Automobil-Remise (automobile carriage house) of Villa Esche by Henry van de Velde. Carl Benz, the inventor of the automobile, had a tower built for himself in 1910, on the first floor a room for studying, on the ground floor car parking space. It still exists in Ladenburg, Germany.
Hewlett-Packard of the Silicon Valley started its business in a garage. That garage, the HP Garage, is now a museum.[7]
Gallery of special garages[edit]
Garages in the United States and Canada used to store streetcars and buses are often referred to as carhouse or car barn. These storage facilities are either metal or brick structures used to store streetcars or buses away from the elements. In Britain they are referred to as bus depot or depot.

Helping to Organize the Disorganized Student
Helping to Organize the Disorganized Student
By Dr. Kenneth Shore
Elementary school teachers often find that they are spending too little time teaching their students because they are spending too much time helping them get organized. Organizational problems may take various forms, including forgetting to bring the necessary materials to class, losing papers, having problems getting started with a project or report, using time inefficiently, not completing seatwork and forgetting his school schedule. Even such simple tasks as bringing a pencil to class may elude the disorganized student.
It is important that elementary teachers, particularly those in the upper grades, focus on these skills since they will be essential in middle school when students will be expected to keep track of their assignments and school responsibilities with little teacher assistance. Fortunately, organizational skills can be taught.
What Can You Do
1. Encourage responsibility for bringing materials to class. Review with your students the materials you expect them to bring to school every day. Do spot checks periodically. If a student forgets to bring the proper materials, loan him what he needs, but consider having him to give you some “collateral” to be returned when he gives back the borrowed materials. You might keep a “pencil stubs” box on your desk or near the pencil sharpener so students who forget a pencil do not need to disrupt the class.
2. Designate a place for students to turn in their seatwork. Having them turn in their work as soon as they complete it will lessen their chance of misplacing it. You might designate a box, file divider or file drawer for this purpose, with individual student folders arranged alphabetically. Or you might have folders for each assignment that are color-coded to decrease the chance of misfiling. You might also have students check off on a sheet that they have turned in the assignment.
3. Have students organize their papers in folders. They might have a folder for completed work, a folder for work to be done, and a folder for parent information. Or they might have different folders for each subject. By keeping these folders in their desks and color-coding them, they can access their work quickly. You can help students avoid being overwhelmed by loose papers by having them bring completed work home on a specific day of the week. Let parents know of this procedure so they can help their child sort through the papers.
4. Give the student a container for small items. Items such as pencils, pens, erasers and scissors can be easily lost in a desk or backpack. You can help him solve this problem by having him place them in a plastic zippered pouch kept in his binder or a box or re-sealable plastic bag kept in his desk.
5. Require older elementary students to use a three-ring binder. Students as early as third grade can use a three-ring binder with subject dividers and a pouch for pens and pencils. Suggest they get a binder with pockets or three-hole punched folders and then have them label one pocket or folder “To Bring Home” for homework to be done and notes for parents and another “To bring to school” for completed homework and notes from parents. You might also have them place a monthly calendar in their binders on which they can indicate tests, projects and important school activities. Punch holes in the handouts you give to students so they can put them in their binder easily.
6. Provide the disorganized student with a classroom buddy. Select a mature, responsible classmate who can help the student with classroom tasks when you are unavailable. Another way of doing this is to group students at tables, with students expected to help each other when questions arise.
7. Teach the student memory aides. Teach him the acronym PANTS to remind him what he needs to bring to and from school every day (P = Parent information, A = Assignments, N = Notebook, T = Textbooks and S = Student, namely himself). Show him how to make a checklist of school tasks and his schedule that he can tape to his desk or binder.
8. Meet briefly with the student before he goes home. Check to make sure he has the proper materials and has written down his homework correctly.

I have a vague memory of a Star Trek TOS book I read when I was a child. This was around 1995.
The Enterprise visits a planet. They're unable to beam down, so a landing party goes down in a shuttlecraft. I believe the initial landing party was Kirk / Spock / McCoy, and possibly some redshirts.
The moment that their shuttle touches down, it loses all power. Communicators, phasers, and tricorders also fail to power on.
Eventually a rescue party (possibly more than one shuttle) comes. It too loses power immediately upon touching down. The rescue crew has come prepared and has some relative low-tech equipment to help them survive.
My fuzzy recollection of the ending is that it ends up being a prison planet, and Kirk has to use a hot air balloon to get enough altitude that his communicator starts to work again.
Does that ring any bells for anyone?
• If anyone is reading this looking for the same book, I recently found "Planet of Judgement" by Joe Haldeman which is the book I was looking for originally. In it, five shuttles are stranded on a planet where technology selectively works. Phasers can stun, but can't kill. Tricorders, communicators, and shuttle engines won't power on. The rescue crews carry low-tech pioneering gear. They do not escape via hot air balloon. It looks like I confused the start of Planet of Judgement and the end of Sanctuary into one story. – Bob Warwick Mar 21 '18 at 18:51
This is Star Trek: Sanctuary (1992) by John Vornholt.
When the crew of the USS Enterprise is assigned to capture a dangerous criminal named Auk Rex, their pursuit takes them to an unexplored sector of space. Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy continue the pursuit in a shuttlecraft, following Auk Rex to the surface of the planet, Sanctuary. Soon, Kirk and his crew are locked in a life and death struggle on the mysterious planet, which harbors deadly secrets and never releases its visitors.
Having crash-landed, eventually they use a crude hydrogen balloon (to get above a Senite dampening field that is rendering their equipment useless) having rejected the idea of using a hot-air balloon.
"By my calculations, yes," Spock replied. "At about 238 fifty kilometers, it will probably start to lose altitude, but it is past the Senite shield." "Wait a minute," said Kirk, reaching into his back pocket and pulling out his beat-up communicator. "If we ride a balloon thirty-five kilometers into the stratosphere, will we be able to contact the Enterprise? Will they be able to beam us off?"
• Hm, the balloon part sounds familiar, but I don't see the tech that won't power on. Maybe I'm mixing two plots - I've read too many Trek novels. I'll leave it open for a while and see if anyone can match the 'other half' of what I remember. – Bob Warwick Dec 9 '17 at 22:38

Nothing would work. They had to use the balloon to get above the "dampening field" or some such. It did work as an allegory to the difficulties of initial spaceflight. There were creepy enforcers who were sexless as I recall. – Emsley Wyatt Dec 9 '17 at 22:41

@BobWarwick - The fact that certain tech wasn't working (instruments, phasers, communicators) was a key reason that the planet was a successful prison and/or bolt-hole for fugitives. – Valorum Dec 9 '17 at 22:48
• Just downloaded the ebook, giving the first couple chapters a read to confirm. – Bob Warwick Dec 9 '17 at 23:00
• This is reading as very familiar, so I think we've got a winner. Thanks! – Bob Warwick Dec 9 '17 at 23:25

A structural carbohydrate that forms the exoskeleton of many insects and crustaceans. What makes bugs crunchy. Yum.
Chitin can be compared to cellulose in plants and glycogen in animals in that they are all carbohydrates that are used for structural purposes.
And what Webster said. It's white and, um....horny. (tee hee!)

Left Populism Is a Dead End
Marina Prentoulis's new book is intended to show left populism in a favorable light. Her examples, however, actually serve as a warning of what awaits the working class when parties influenced by left populism come to power.
Corbyn’s Suspension Shows the Limits of Reformism
As soon as Jeremy Corbyn was elected leader of the British Labour Party, the bureaucracy waged war against him. But the term “war” suggests that there are two sides engaged in the fighting. Here there was no fightback.

Senator Vitter Reacts to Aide's Resignation
On Furer's rap sheet an arrest after police said he attacked his ex girlfriend with a knife and held her hostage for 90 minutes.
Also, an open warrant for his arrest.
When questioned about the scandal this is what Senator Vitter had to say--
Vitter said, "Well actually I have responded and I've answered every detailed question. I just think it's really desperate of Charlie Melancon to base so much of his campaign on something that was dealt with two years ago in terms of this incident."
Furer remained on Senator Vitter's payroll for the past two years, until he resigned two weeks ago.
When KATC pushed to find out why, he walked away in the middle of a question.
Democratic opponent, Charlie Melancon, also weighed in on the issue today as well.
Melancon said, "Here's a guy that attacked a woman. Figure it out-it's not that complicated and you don't just give a person four months paid vacation."
Melacon says his opinion doesn't matter---constitutes opinions are what matters.
"The decisions he made in his office-that will be up to people to make that judgment, but I think it's just part of a pattern out there," he explained.

White Hot Charcoal
chimney. get one. love one
This charcoal chimney thing is really simple and nothing to fear. I’ve photographed two gals who have never done the chimney before. On their first try, the charcoal came out perfect. It’s really the only way to light charcoal. The chimney works without fail.
Quick steps:
1. Remove the top grill of the barbeque
2. Put the charcoal in the top bin in the chimney
3. Put some wadded up newspaper in the bottom part of the chimney
bottom bit
4. Stick the thing in the grill
5. Light the paper and wait
6. When it starts flaming and the charcoal appears white, it’s ready
7. Grab some tongs and a pot holder to avoid burning your hands
8. Grab the handle with the pot holder and the little metal flippy bit with the tongs and carefully pour into the grill
9. You now have white, hot charcoal for you to play with
remove grill need newspaper
light the bottom bit nice and hot
careful with that hot stuff pouring
White Hot Charcoal
white charcoal is good charcoal

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of CRC pathogenesis is crucial to identify new therapeutic targets and facilitate treatment decisions. The recent work from our laboratory found that BATF2 deficiency promotes progression in CRC via activation of HGF/MET signaling, which potentially provides a promising therapeutic strategy: IFNs in combination with MET inhibitors [1].
Decreased BATF2 expression predicts poor prognosis in CRC. It is well known that many oncogenes are hyperactivated and suppressor genes are inactivated when non-tumor tissue progressed to invasive carcinoma. BATF2, a novel tumor suppressor and type I IFN-inducible early response gene, has a broader expression profile that includes hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic tissues [2]. Recent evidence suggests that decreased BATF2 expression is associated with an inferior outcome in hepatocellular carcinoma and oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma [3,4]. Our findings that decreased BATF2 correlates with tumor progression and poor CRC patient prognosis strongly support the notion that BATF2 plays a critical role in controlling tumor initiation and subsequent progression and could be used as a candidate marker for CRC diagnosis as well as prognosis [1].
BATF2 inactivates HGF/MET signaling in CRC. HGF/MET signaling is frequently activated in diverse human malignancies; yet the underlying mechanism of HGF/MET activation is not fully elucidated. We first identified BATF2 as an independent factor in cell proliferation inhibition in vitro and xenograft formation blockage in vivo in CRC. Our findings are consistent with the results of Su et al., showing that BATF2 is a potent inhibitory factor that arrests cell growth in prostate cancer, glioma, and melanoma cells [2]. Mechanistically, BATF2 overexpression dramatically impairs activator protein (AP)-1 function via the direct binding with c-Jun (a critical component of AP-1). Coincidently, another report documented that overexpression of AP-1 (c-Jun plus c-Fos) dramatically increased MET promoter activity [5], which was also confirmed in our study. Therefore, a novel pathway comprising BATF2 and c-Jun/AP-1 that inhibits canonical HGF/MET signaling is established. Several studies have shown that activation of HGF/MET signaling promotes the progression of many tumors via PI3K/Akt and/or MAPK/ERK. Our data showed that BATF2 overexpression downregulates MET expression by inhibiting transcription and thereby dephosphorylates Akt in CRC cells. Additionally, the results from immunohistochemistry (IHC) further confirmed our previous findings. MET protein expression detected by IHC was gradually enhanced in tissues from non-tumors that progressed to invasive carcinomas. Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between BATF2 and MET protein expression in CRC [1].
BATF2 is an IFN-stimulated gene. Interferons (IFNs), apart from their function as anti-viral infection agents, exert a variety of inhibitory effects on cell growth, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. IFNs exert potent anti-tumor effects and are used clinically either as a mono-therapy or as an adjuvant to chemotherapy for a variety of human cancers. For example, in hairy cell leukaemia and chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), IFN-α2 reduced marrow infiltration with malignant cells and normalized peripheral haematological parameters. In addition to hairy cell leukaemia and CML, therapeutic efficacy of IFN-α2 in causing at least partial disease regression has been identified in other diverse human malignancies including melanoma, renal cell and bladder cancer, lymphoma, myeloma, and Kaposi's sarcoma [6]. IFNs induce growth inhibition by a variety of pathways that involve many IFN-stimulated genes. BATF2 is one of these genes and can be induced by IFNβ, which indicates that BATF2 may be a key component involved in IFN signaling. Both Su et al. and we confirmed that BATF2 expression is induced after IFNβ treatment in melanoma cells and CRC cells. Inhibition of BATF2 by an antisense approach in HeLa cells significantly abrogated IFNβ-induced growth inhibition, thus establishing the role of BATF2 in mediating IFN anti-proliferative action [1,2].
MET inhibitors and IFNs in CRC therapeutic strategy. Currently, many targeted approaches to cancer therapy have focused on the reliance of cancer cells on HGF/MET signaling for cell proliferation. Although approaches targeting MET, for instance diverse specific MET inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies and siMET, were developed, and have yielded promising results in preclinical studies, few clinical trials of MET inhibitors have demonstrated the expected therapeutic benefits [7]. This inconsistency raises the possibilities that there are different regulatory mechanisms of HGF/MET signaling in different cancers. Based on our findings that BATF2 can dramatically suppress MET expression and an earlier report that MET inhibitor PF-04217903 only partially inhibited HGF-mediated cell proliferation in CRC cells, we evaluated whether the BATF2 inducer IFN-β in combination with the MET inhibitor PF-04217903 would produce a synergistic effect on cell apoptosis and proliferation in CRC cells. Then, our work validated the efficacy of the combination in inhibiting proliferation in vitro and blocking xenograft formation in vivo in CRC [1].
Taken together, these findings indicate that BATF2 status could be served as a potential biomarker to predict prognosis and IFNs in combination with MET inhibitors may serve as a novel therapeutic strategy for CRC patients.

Come race with us in Alabama
Special events. And places to book them.
Creative spelling. Not "all ways" on purpose.
1. Well thank good golly Pete the biscuits are finally back!
p.s. those sure are some pretty hills!
2. Hello from your friend Mrs. Alabama! Im much lower Alabama where the biscuits are on hand 24/7 but I have to stay away from them! Erica
1. I'm not sure they can consider it Alabama if they were out of biscuits! I need to put staying away from biscuits on my to-do list too!
3. Another reason to live in AL: your gas is under $4!!!
I paid $4.35/gal on the way home from work this evening and thought it was cheap.
1. Crikey! Just when I thought our gas was getting expensive enough to match California's prices. We pay in the $3.50s lately.
4. I've never spent a lot of time in Alabama, but I do remember Birmingham fondly. Great town!
Yo Momma loves comments.

Korean Air Flight Delayed Over Nuts
Well this story is just nuts! A Korean Air flight on Friday from New York to Seoul returned to the gate after an angry executive seated in first class wasn’t pleased with how she was served her nuts.
Korean Air A380
Via Yahoo News:
Heather Cho, 40, was in a first class seat on a flight bound from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport for Incheon, near Seoul, on Friday when she took issue with a flight attendant who handed her macadamia nuts in a bag and not on a dish, according to local media reports and an industry source.
Cho, a vice president at the airline, summoned the cabin crew chief to ask whether the flight attendant was following the in-flight service manual, said the industry official, who was briefed on the matter but declined to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter.
When the crew chief could not answer the question promptly, Cho ordered the crew chief to disembark, prompting the pilot to return the plane to the gate, the industry official said, confirming media reports.
Korean Air first class macadamia nuts
So I have two thoughts about this. First of all, it’s unbelievable this is how a situation like this is dealt with. It is worth noting that she’s actually the senior vice president of onboard service, so it wasn’t wrong of her to notice the mistake and even to bring it up to the flight attendant. But is the way to deal with it really to kick the flight attendant off over this? How about dealing with it after the flight instead? This is just terrible for the airline’s employee morale and corporate culture, I imagine.
The Korean transport ministry is apparently also investigating, though I’m not sure what role they could even play here. This wasn’t a safety issue but rather just a service issue coupled with an over-the-top executive.
I guess this is what happens when the chairman of a company gives all three of his kids executive positions…
(Tip of the hat to Min Soo)
1. I read that daddy’s little girl, Ms. Cho was flying as a passenger. Can we then assume that her broom was out of service that day?
2. First thing I would do if I was a head flight attendant or purser would be to Google the names of my first class passengers.
3. elteetrav is making reference to the fact that Ms. Cho is the daughter of YH Cho, the chairman of the airline. I’ve had my own run ins with Mr. Cho and if he is not happy, you hear about it quickly. I doubt the daughter is much different.
4. Although it was terrible the way she handled the situation I like that Korean Air will do something about this that will benefit passengers. Take the example of your bad experience when flying China Southern when they served cheap champagne.
5. I assume that “returned to the gate” delayed 300 or 400 (A380?) passengers at least 30 minutes if not 1 hour. I appreciate the attention to detail, but Ms. Cho should have waited until the flight was over to address the issue.
6. @MK83, the article stated the flight arrived 11 mins late in ICN.
If the Qatar CEO Akbar al Baker experienced this on his QR A380 First flight, I wouldn’t be surprised if he did the same thing (or worse!)
7. I’m not saying what she did was right. That said, if you’re working in First, do you really need the instruction manual to know that you’re meant to use the stack of tiny dishes and not fling bags of nuts at the pax in F?
8. Maybe she assumed that if the cabin crew didn’t care about presenting properly to the daughter of the chairman, they were going to provide &%$@$#! service to everyone for the entire flight. She has to assume that the treatment she’s getting, as a first class pax, senior employee, AND daughter of top man, is their very best. And if that’s their idea of very best, then maybe she feels a need to send a message. I’m just speculating here, but you know? Most pax who get bad service aren’t in a position to do anything about it, and if they so much as whimper a complaint, THEY can get kicked off or even arrested. So who else, other than a top employee, is going to send a message that employees need to do a premium job if they’re selling a premium product? I’m asking not telling but there could be two sides here.
9. By American standards, it was a ridiculous overreaction, but we can’t judge another culture on their organizational behavior. KE’s culture has produced a couple flights and service that you tremendously enjoyed, if memory serves?
10. Dayum! Korean corporate executives don’t play, do they? Sounds like a bad Korean drama. Well, they all pretty much suck anyway, but you know what I mean.
11. @Justin
By human being standards, it’s an overreaction. Banish the wench to the crew quarters for the duration of the flight, then chew her out in front of the crew upon arrival (after all the passengers disembark, of course).
12. I think there are a couple of interesting things here:
1) she didn’t de-plane the FA who served her nuts but rather the crew chief;
2) the aforementioned crew chief couldn’t answer a simple question on whether the FA followed the protocol by service nuts in a bag. I find that very puzzling because even an infrequent follower of OMAAT knows that nuts are served in a separate dish in F on most any airline.
While this sounds like a tough punishment, since the delay was only 11 minutes, it doesn’t sound like a huge deal to me assuming KE made sure no one missed their connections.
13. I thought in civil aviation, the captain is ultimately in command of the aircraft.
It sounds like KE is an exception, where the CEO’s daughter (and who knows how many others?) is in command.
Here’s a simplified org. breakdown – Korean Air, feel free to share this with your employees!
1. Top Dog: Who knows?
2. Captain: When there’s not a different Top Dog
3. FO
4. Lead FA
5. Senior FA
6. Junior FA
I certainly feel better knowing this. And it must make all the crews feel great knowing the reporting authority changes depending on who is on the flight. And how awesome is it that the cabin crew chief was humiliated in front of many people? How awesome? VERY AWESOME! VERY PROFESSIONAL! Well played, KE, well played indeed! You showed your little people just how little they are!
14. Assuming Ms. Cho was on Flight 82, her flight on Friday actually arrived earlier than the flights on the proceeding five days. In other words, her corrective actions had zero impact on the on-time performance average.
I’m certain Ms. Cho’s corrective actions did, indeed, impact the level of service passengers received on the flight (very much for the better). To be clear, this story has nothing to do with nuts. It’s about having service standards and making sure that they are consistently maintained. Frankly, it’s the least that someone should EXPECT when purchasing a $9,000 one way first class ticket on the route.
I say bravo to Ms. Cho. I also say bravo to Korean Air for demonstrating just how important customer service is to them.
15. This was all a setup. There was probably something wrong with the plane. So instead of the story being “Korean air plane forced to turn back due to maintenance issue”, they made some BS about Korean Air executive not happy with the level of customer service.
Give their PR team a raise. Saving face at its finest.
16. Ivan Y’s comment is the best I’ve seen in a while: “Even an infrequent follower of OMAAT knows that nuts are served in a separate dish in F on most any airline.” Now that’s even funnier than it is true. The variable, if my memory as a faithful reader serves, is whether the nuts are warmed or not . . . .
17. @ Pu — Not sure how humiliating the daughter of the chairman and making the family look good would be saving face? Over an 11 minute delay?
18. The issue was about the crew not following procedures which was first asking the passengers before serving. I agree with this decision completely given how serious some of the allergies can be. What if she suffered from nut allergy? Whilst her actions may seem to be rather harsh, I think it is ensuring that service levels are maintained – particularly when flying F
I also do think that the crew chief by not knowing the answer demonstrated to her that the crew may be a bit weak on their procedures. She may have thought that, god forbid, if the crew had to deal with any emergency procedures then she is indeed taking her chances. I think she did well here
19. Hmmm… There are numerous stories of Steve Jobs holding his employees to high standards regardless of how it impacted their happiness / stress levels. His high standards and attention to detail are part of what led him to be considered a visionary genius. Ms. Cho follows the same model, but it leads to her being considered an irrational “B”. Sounds like a double standard to me. Especially when people suggest she only has the job through nepotism without knowing anything about her. Disembarking the crew chief may have been an inconvenience, but if he/she didn’t know basic service standards what else was his/her level of knowledge deficient on? This also could be a respect issue if the crew chief blew her off at first. An executive that let’s that happen will have credibility problems. I think she is doing her job. Lower standards are what lead to crew like Ms. Peggy.
20. Have to agree with wwk5d about it being an over reaction even if it was her area of responsibility, while service is the whole reason for First to exist the possibility of delaying the flight and risking passengers missing their connections is not worth it.
This should have been dealt with on the ground in S.Korea,if needed take the crew members in question off flight status and have them report directly to her office and stand at attention while she chewed them out.
If load on flight was low enough swap around crew and send the offending crew members to the crew area to reflect on their sins.
Do now risk delaying the flight (JFK and delays in take off?) and do not create a scene in front the passengers, especially First.
Assuming the Captain flew faster to make up lost time I wonder how much this stunt cost in extra fuel costs for Korean?
21. Remember, this is a country where everyone believes electric fans cause “fan death” by various means including my favorite: They chop up the oxygen molecules.
The should have offered her an electric fan.
Don’t believe it? Ask a Korean.
22. i am a loyal KAL customer because i find their customer care impeccable most of the time. so i can understand the executive’s freak reaction.
having said that, i don’t think the passengers should have been inconvenienced for an act of disciplining an employee. that is a company internal matter and should not have eat up customers’ precious time whether it be 5 minutes or 5 hours.
23. I find that serving nuts in a bag in first class to a company executive is unacceptable. It’s not really about Ms. Cho being a spolied bratty person, but think about it. The retail price of F class is in tens of thousands, and service is everything in premium travel. The mishap of the FA I think is tremendously worrisome. Also, considering this is an Korean airliner, where respect and service is paramount I am not prone to pounce KE’s handling of the situation. (Honestly, public servants in Korea in post offices serves people better than first class flight attendants on a domestic flight in the states).
Maybe the issue should have been addressed after landing in ICN sure, but I can understand from the management’s point of view of how disturbing for such dismal show of repsect and service by the FA.
24. 11 mins late doesnt sound like a lot but that flight is generally always early — sometimes as much as 45 mins because it’s always “#1 for take off” and always “#1 for landing” given the departure and flight times.
but even if was on time, that doesn’t change the fact that only the pilot has the authority to return the plane back to the gate and this clearly was not an emergency. moreover i would think even if the plane was at the gate, only the pilot has the authority to kick one of his/her crew off the plane.
25. Ms Cho threw a temper tantrum, that is all. That is what spoilt brats tend to do. It can sometimes be kind of cute when they are 2 or 3 years old, but definitely not when they are 40 years old and supposedly “executives”. More serious when hundreds of people are affected by that temper tantrum. Ms Cho had no way of knowing how long a delay would be because of throwing the person off the plane. Just looks like an “executive” out of control. A professional executive would have addressed this on the ground in Korea. Shame on Ms Cho.
26. It was an incident sometime back whereby a 4 year old passenger almost died due to a severe case of nut. While the KE Chief Flight Attendant’s mistake may seem trivial, it could have led to severe consequences if the circumstances were similar. It would have been a long 13 hour flight, so necessary precautions are important against any incompetence that may result in health hazard or even death, especially if the incompetence came from the Chief Flight Attendant, someone whose job carries high responsibilities. But of course, the VP’s actions can only be justified from a medical/safety standpoint. If it was just about not serving what she wanted, then she’s just being petty and power-abusive.
27. Firing the employee for providing substandard service (that can also potentially cause a huge liability issue for the company, if the customer has nut allergies) isn’t wrong, but she definitely could have handled it better. Like many have said, if she absolutely needed to fire anyone, that can always wait after the flight, when they’ve landed in S.Korea.
However, I find it odd how people consistently referred to the official policy of the captain being the ultimate authority. On technicality, sure the captain has authority while the plane’s doors are closed, but does he want to have authority for just this one last flight? If Cho merely “suggested” to the captain that he should return to the gate, do you seriously think the captain would refuse?
28. @Bob: “Ms. Cho follows the same model, but it leads to her being considered an irrational “B”. Sounds like a double standard to me.”
Actually, there are plenty of stories about Steve Jobs that show how he could be a complete asshole. Maybe if you were in the US you’d have heard some of them by now.
“Disembarking the crew chief may have been an inconvenience”
It wasn’t merely an “inconvenience”; it was also against regulations.
29. To Ivan Y,
That’s what I wonder, too. That crew chief’s issue, although not directly causing any problem this time, might cause serious issues in emergency such as a customer’s having medical emergency. Wondering why most people are only criticizing Cho. Hope it’s not simply for fun…
30. I believe the matter should have been delt in a professional way than they way its been delt with. there should be always a way to satisfy the customer, or make show that the customer is serviced in a way she or he is happy with.

Geology : Introduction
Pin It tellafriend
Geology (Geo means earth and logos means Science). Geology is the branch of science that deals with the study of the earth, its environment, history, minerals etc. Different branches of Geology are structural geology, mineralogy, planetology, geomorphology, geological engineering etc. A person who studies the composition of the earth is known as the geologist. Geologists are scientists who study the earth's crust to obtain an accurate picture of its structure, history, and composition. Geologists play a vital role in exploring the mineral wealth and natural resources. Now a day, career in Geology is gaining lot more popularity.
Main function of the geologists is to assess the natural disasters and its effects on environment, to explore areas rich in under-water resources, oil, natural gas and minerals. They can assess whether the conditions in particular areas are suitable for laying railway lines, construction of roads, bridges, buildings etc. The geologists can also explore the natural resources deep in the sea. Their services are also important for oil explorations.They determine the quality of soil by conducting geo-chemical and geo-physical tests. Construction of reservoirs, roads, bridges, underground tunnels etc. is based on the report of the geologist about the density of the earth. Geologists work for private industries, the federal government, museums, colleges and universities.
The need for geologists will increase about as fast as the average through the year 2012. Most jobs will result from the growing number of environmental laws and regulations. There will also be a need to replace geologists who retire.

cannot be affected or bypassed by such means as physical or magical probing, though they can be dispelled.Mislead,polymorph, andnon-detection (and similar magical effects) can fool a glyph, though non-magical disguises and the like can’t.
Read magic allows you to identify a glyph of warding with a DC 13 Spell-craft check. Identifying the glyph does not discharge it and allows you to know the basic nature of the glyph (version, type of damage caused, what spell is stored).
The DM may decide that the exact glyphs available to you depend on your deity. He or she might also make new glyphs available according to the magical research rules in the Dungeon Master’s Guide.
Magic traps such as glyph of warding are hard to detect and disable. A rogue (only) can use theSearch skill to find the glyph andDisable Device to thwart it. The DC in each case is 25 + spell level, or 28 for glyph of warding.

Chirimoya - Custard Apple
Custard Apple
Chirimoya or Cherimoya, in English also known as Custard Apples, are native to the Andean highlands of Peru. The Chirimoya looks like no other fruit; it is heart-shaped with rough-textured but thin skin which varies from a yellow-green to a dark green.
The inside is white, juicy and fleshy with a creamy custard like texture and dark seeds that look like beans. Chirimoya are sweet and taste like a combination of banana, pineapple, peach and strawberry.
Chirimoya can be peeled and eaten raw or used instead of an apple sauce or cooked apples for crumbles and pies.

BRIT PICK: Oliver Twist (1948)
Oliver Twist (UK, 1948)
Directed by David Lean
Starring John Howard Davies, Alec Guinness, Robert Newton, Kay Walsh
BFI Top 100: #46 (1999)
Charles Dickens as a storyteller is inherently episodic. Having cut his teeth as a journalist and shorthand writer, he carried over this approach into his works of fiction, which was itself consolidated by their serialisation in newspapers. Throughout his novels Dickens tells his stories like a journalist, having a great eye for human behaviour and social injustice. He paints a vivid introductory picture of a character, including the elaborately grotesque name, and then introduces other aspects in small episodes or bites of information until the story has run its course.
This means that while there are many fine TV adaptations of Dickens (including the brilliant version of Bleak House from 2005), there are very few big-screen Dickens adaptations that can truly be considered cinematic. Carol Reed's Oscar-winning musical features in this happy few, as do several versions of A Christmas Carol, but perhaps no director has come closer to making Dickens cinematic than David Lean. 65 years on, his version of Oliver Twist remains both interesting and impressive, particularly in its narrative and visual decisions.
Having already enjoyed success with Great Expectations, it makes sense that Lean retained much of the same cast and crew for this adaptation. Ronald Neame returns as producer, having worked with Lean previously on Brief Encounter, as does cinematographer Guy Green following his Oscar win for Great Expectations. But more than that, the opening of Oliver Twist is a very conscious attempt on Lean's part to recapture that success. The very first shot, of Oliver's mother stumbling down the long desolate road, has the same cruel, intimidating atmosphere that characterised its predecessor.
The visuals of Oliver Twist are an intriguing mix of naturalism and expressionism. The more affluent parts of London, such as Oliver's eventual home, are rendered naturalistically with fine period details such as chess boards, book cases and marble columns. The poorer parts, however, look like one of Franz Kafka's nightmares, with the East End skyline made up of buildings which lean and reach in strange directions.
Lean uses this juxtaposition to convey with great subtlety the big ideas and images of the book. There is a recurring image in the film of hands reaching out towards something better: Oliver holding his bowl, the pickpockets looking for wallets, Nancy's lifeless hand after Sikes beats her, and so on. Even the slums, particularly on the scenes on the rooftop bridge, seem to lean and reach in vain towards the wealth and opulence of St. Paul's Cathedral. Through these images Lean paints a picture of a city founded on a desperate desire to escape, telling the story through architecture in a manner that would have made Fritz Lang proud.
The film also brilliantly utilises different ratios of darkness and light - or chiaroscuro, to use the artistic term. Shadows are a common device in horror and thrillers to indicate the darkness of a character or a threat that faces them, but Lean uses them slightly differently: rather than the darkness encroaching on the characters, he conceives of a world where the characters have painted themselves into a corner and shut the light out. Sikes' room has curtains which selectively let light through after he has murdered Nancy, and the shadow that Nancy's hand casts on the floor is foreshadowed by the lone leaf on the tree in one of the opening shots.
The film is also notable for its approach to violence. The beating of Nancy is a deeply traumatic moment in the novel, with Dickens often struggling to get through it during his public readings. Much like Carol Reed's version from the 1960s, most of the violence in Lean's film is suggested, with the audience being asked to fill in the blanks from Nancy's screams, her limp hand and Robert Newton's facial expressions. It's a very effective decision, reflective of social attitudes at the time but also in keeping with the overall tone of Lean's story, where pain and hardship are suggested so strongly that candid depiction is unnecessary.
As a visual piece of storytelling, Oliver Twist comes through with flying colours (or lack thereof). But despite Lean's best efforts, he does not entirely overcome the episodic quality of the narrative, in which characters disappear for long periods, often without explanation. Rather than fill in the blanks with supplementary material, as Peter Jackson has attempted with The Hobbit, Lean is using as a reference an abridged version of the text created by Alec Guinness for the stage. One of the biggest problems he has is that his title character is not always his main protagonist: sometimes the story is more interested in Fagin, or Sikes, or Nancy, or the two rich gentlemen.
To get around this, the film is ruthlessly edited by Lean and Jack Harris. Lean first made his name as an editor, creating the famous elocution montage in Pygmalion, and he always held the art in the highest regard - so much so that on his final film, A Passage to India, he was credited as "Directed and Edited by David Lean". While he allows his actors room to explore and perform in a manner which is occasionally theatrical, he reins them in through frequent cuts. His coverage is exemplary for the period and he succeeds in trimming a lot of the fat from Dickens' story.
Lean's editing is so ruthless, indeed, that he occasionally goes too far, partially undermining emotional developments in the novel and making certain sections feel a little too contrived. Nancy's involvement in the discovery of Oliver's identity is shoved to the centre for a large part of the story, so that the film threatens to drift into a half-cocked mystery when grim drama is its biggest strength. Choices like this don't entirely derail the film, but they do detract from the atmosphere that Lean has created, by exposing how the individual threads in Dickens' stories don't always stand up so well on their own.
There are a number of other issues with the film, many of which relate to the context in which it was created. The first and biggest of these is the anti-Semitic depiction of Fagin, as portrayed by Guinness. Dickens was surprised by the outrage that greeted the character, writing that he had no personal ill will towards Jews and removing many references to Fagin as "the Jew" from later editions of the novel. He gave a rather poor defence of the characterisation, however, saying that that he was merely depicting an unfortunate real-world prejudice rather than taking a moral stance on it - a defence which does not gel with the biting criticism of poverty and social ills throughout his novels.
It is therefore somewhat inevitable that any depiction of Fagin could be branded anti-Semitic even before the actor in question has opened his mouth. But Guinness doesn't do himself any favours here, wearing a large prosthetic nose (with Lean's approval) to more closely resemble George Cruikshank's original illustrations. It's an outrageous and cartoonish depiction even for the day, and while Guinness is still capable in the role there is too much to distract us from the character to make it work. Certainly it's no surprise that the film caused outrage in Berlin, and that it was severely cut for screenings in the USA.
Neither does the film do itself any favours with its gender politics. I spoke in my review of Cinderella of the regression in attitudes to women following World War II, with the women whose defiance of gender roles helped to win the war being expected to go back to the kitchen and bedroom as if nothing had ever happened. In this case, women are depicted in one of two massively limiting ways: either as the comedy battleaxe, in the case of Mrs. Bumble, or the hysterical, vulnerable mother figure, such as Nancy.
Even with its problems, however, Oliver Twist is worth watching for the performances (disregarding Guinness). John Howard Davies, who went on to commission Fawlty Towers, does a very good job in the lead role, resisting the urge to over-egg the angelic aspects of the character. Robert Newton's performance isn't quite as purely intimidating as Oliver Reed's (indeed much of it feels like Dudley Moore was in the role) but he still comes through in the moments that matter. Watch out also for brief appearances in the pub scenes by Carry On's Hattie Jacques and Peter Bull, best known as the Russian ambassador in Dr. Strangelove.
Oliver Twist remains a very good and admirable cinematic achievement in spite of all its flaws. While it fails to solve the problems relating to Fagin and has a number of unfortunate shortcomings in its storytelling, it remains a visually striking piece which succeeds by and large in putting Dickens on the big screen. For people both familiar with the musical and those coming to the story for the first time, it remains highly recommended.
Oliver Twist features in my recent article for WhatCulture! on Dickens adaptations, which you can read in full here.

[Outro] Look....if you had...one shot....or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted...in one moment Would you capture it...or just let it slip, yo.. [Verse 1] His palms are sweety, knees weak, arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out He's choking how, everybody's choking now The clock's run out, time's up, over BLAOW ! Snap back to reality, ohh, there goes gravity Ohh there goes Rabbit, he choked He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy, nope He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to this rope It don't matter, he's dope He knows that, but he's broke He's so sad that he knows When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's back to the lab again, yo this whole rap shit He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him [Chorus] You better-lose yourself in the music, the moment You own it, you better never let it go You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo...

"All of a sudden the smoke detector is going off, so I jump out of the shower and half open the curtain because I'm naked and have children on the bus that aren't mine, and the whole bus is full of smoke and not one kid noticed! They were playing a video game... So I'm pouring water, in the nude, running around like crazy, my son's yelling, I'm yelling... it's a mess."
Rapid Fire Questions and Answers:
How do you stay clean on the road?
You don’t... Or you put a bathtub on your bus like I did so that you can rise yourself, and the dogs, and the kids off in a pinch.
What do you consider bus life essentials?
For me, I put in a full-sized fridge instead of one of those stupid ‘fits six cans of soda’ fridges that I see a lot of. I put in a full fridge. I eat a lot, number one, my kid eats a lot, and also you have the ability to dip out into nature and not have to go to the grocery store every day. So a large fridge is pretty important to us. Animals. I mean animals always make things on the road a lot better. And then also everything has to be multipurpose and everybody has to be comfortable so everybody has to have a spot or a seat or something like that. For me, I had to have the ability to have whatever kind of art supplies and storage space.
What is your favorite place you have visited?
Obviously, Yellowstone because that’s where the bison are. Also the California Coast. We drove from San Diego up to Vancouver on the 1. Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz and Santa Monica and that whole strip of California was just unbelievable. You see it in pictures and you drive here and there on parts of it but driving the entire thing was just life-changing.
What should everyone know before living out of a van?
You will get very quickly a custom to baby wipe baths.
What would you tell someone who doesn’t understand the appeal of bus life?
Then they shouldn’t do it if they don’t think it’s awesome. I think the biggest thing that I can relate to is when I was traveling around the country I was meeting up with Marines that I was stationed with and they would be like, you know, I was that disgruntled, pissed off, angry Sergeant Marine and they would be like “yo Rambo what happened to you” and I would just say I got happy. You know like it’s that simple. It’s that your whole life and your mental mentality your physical mentality all of those things just drastically change when you get into this lifestyle.
What's your favorite book you either read on the road or that inspired you to try it?
For adults: American Buffalo by Steven Rinella. And for kids: The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart.
A Clean Escape is presented by Jack Frost, a company on a mission to make life on the road more comfortable, inspiring people to see the world and remember that it’s worth saving along the way. Jack Frost is a minimal, use-everywhere body powder that’s so effective you’ll convince your mom you showered. Are you ready to be a cleaner dirtbag?

What is a vet referral and do I need this?
Each time that you use a therapist such as a physiotherapist, a chiropractor (which may include McTimoney), or an osteopath, they are actually required by law to ask the treating veterinary surgeon (your vet) for their permission to treat the animal.
When it comes to other complementary therapies carried out by a massage therapist, Bowen practitioner, body works practitioner, TTouch practitioner etc, they are encouraged to inform the vet as it is considered good practice.
Basically, if you ask someone to come and look at your horse, dog or cat, that person should always tell your vet. If they are only visiting to carry out a basic assessment or basic massage it is not obligatory, but still considered good practice.
There are two Acts that must be considered by a physiotherapist or in fact any person that is going to carry out any kind of work on your animal. These are The Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 and Veterinary Surgery (Exemptions) Order 2015.
These two Acts explain who may diagnose and treat animals.
There are two pieces of law which are relevant to veterinary physiotherapy and your chosen therapist should abide by them.
With all cases of general massage, it is considered ‘good practice’ to inform the client’s usual vet as well as obtaining consent. This also gives the opportunity to discuss the animal, and may even highlight a previous injury that has been previously forgotten from the animal’s treatment history. This could be important when it comes to the therapist putting together a bespoke treatment plan.
Simple questions that you could ask your therapist are:
What qualifications do you have?
Are you insured and what does your insurance cover?
Do you work under the Veterinary Surgeons Act? How does this work?
Are you a member of a professional body?
How do I know if my horse needs physiotherapy?
There might be a change in your horses behaviour, or perhaps a reduction in their performance. This could be as simple as becoming upset when you tack up to becoming reluctant to go forward when ridden.
Many clients simply ask for physiotherapy treatment purely to maximise their horses athletic potential and make sure they are ready for competition.
How long will my treatment last?
This will vary dependent on the animal, the problem and the treatment required. A typical equine appointment will last approximately 90 minutes, but this can vary depending on the facilities available and how the horse is reacting.
How many treatments will my horse need?
This will depend on the problem identified during the initial assessment. At the first appointment I will assess the animal and discuss a treatment strategy with you. Most commonly straight forward body work can all be treated and resolved in one session or the animal may require a course of physiotherapy or a planned exercise programme. Many clients, especially those who are competing or who have older horses will book regular sessions to maintain health and performance.
If my horse is insured, is it possible to claim for the cost of physiotherapy?
Many insurers cover physiotherapy costs. However, do consult with your insurance company and policy documentation to ensure the correct procedure is followed. Referral from a veterinary surgeon is always required for insurance claims.
How do I pay for treatment?
You will be invoiced on the day of treatment and payment is required on the day unless previously arranged. Payment options include Cash, Cheque and Bank Transfer.
If you need to change your appointment it is asked that 24hrs notice be given, missed appointments will be charged unless circumstances are exceptional. I reserve the right to refuse treatment if it is judged that the animal requires veterinary attention prior to any physiotherapy treatment, the client will still be liable to pay a call out fee.
Many insurance companies will reimburse veterinary physiotherapy fees, however these will need to be paid in full and the costs recovered from your insurance. This is usually done by sending the invoice to the claim department handling your claim once your vet has authorised physiotherapy. It is advisable to check your policy before booking if you are requiring treatment as part of an insurance claim.
Will my horse need time off after treatment?
This depends on the individual and whether or not the appointment is for maintenance or a diagnosed condition. It is possible that your horse may need a couple of days off work so it is advisable to arrange your appointment for a quieter time in your horse's schedule if possible!

Watery Public Transit in Venice
About a million years ago I had a college class about water–water in New Orleans and Venice, specifically. Both had issues with water. Both had their critics who questioned whether these cities should be saved, given inherent water issues and the inevitability of climate change. And I wrote a final paper comparing and contrasting the way marketing professionals and fiction have shaped these cities’ reputations as sinking, doomed places that are romantic and mysterious.
I visited New Orleans for the first time a few years ago, and now having had the chance (finally) to visit Venice, it’s interesting to see what’s true and what’s not in terms of public perception. Both cities really are tied up in water, but for slightly different reasons. I don’t necessarily connect water and New Orleans (except for the flooding that occurred due to Hurricane Katrina) on the regular, but it’s impossible to picture Venice without also picturing its canals and lagoon. I mean, I knew there were no motorized vehicles in Venice. I knew it. But knowing and seeing it are two different things. It’s kind of nuts.
Venice is very walkable (navigation issues aside, which is a post for another day), but it’s difficult to rely on your feet entirely. The Grand Canal is 2 miles long, which doesn’t seem that bad, but you can’t actually walk along the Grand Canal for the entire length because there’s no direct route. By the time you walked the full length, you’d probably end up walking more like 10 miles, what with how much you have to out of your way to find the right bridges, etc. To save your feet, there are the vaporettos, which are essentially like city buses. They sail up and down the Grand Canal to various points, as well as around the perimeter of Venice.
I ended up with a two day vaporetto pass, which is unlimited and costs 30 euros. That was perfect, though, because I used the vaporettos CONSTANTLY. Maybe 30 euros for two days sounds expensive, but considering a one-way ticket is 7.50 euros, it’s a total steal.
Beyond that, there are traghetti. These are gondola-esque, but they’re not aimed at tourists, and there are two oarsman instead of one. Rather, they’re used to cross the Grand Canal at various points where there isn’t a canal-spanning bridge in the vicinity. Passengers typically stand rather than sit, like you would in a gondola. The cost? Two euros per trip if you’re not a Venetian (unless you purchased the VeneziaUnica Pass for Frequent Users, which means you can pay 70 cents per trip, like residents).
You can also catch a water taxi, but they’re way expensive. A cheaper (but slower) way to get back and forth to the airport is the Aliluguna water bus.
Obviously, there are gondolas, but as someone who has lived and worked in an historic city–and I worked for a while very close to the Liberty Bell–I associate gondolas with horse drawn carriages and duck boats. In other words, cheeseball tourist stuff. It’s also pricey: 80 euros for about 40 minutes.

How To Use Market Sentiment To Improve Your Trading/Investing (Part 2)
Elliot Wave Technical Analyst & author @ Elliott Wave Trader
April 6, 2015
Last week, I began with the premise that tracking sentiment is a much more accurate way to determine the direction, or change in direction of a market, relative to fundamental analysis. This week, I will outline the shortcomings of fundamental analysis, and follow up next week with how we track sentiment to identify potential changes in direction within a market.
Fundamental analysis is generally defined as a method of evaluation that attempts to measure “value” by examining related “current” economic, financial and other qualitative and quantitative factors. Fundamental analysts will utilize “current” macroeconomic factors (like the overall economy and industry conditions) and company-specific factors (like financial condition and management).
The common perception in the market is that the news causes changes in market psychology and fundamentals, which then causes changes in stock prices. But I believe that the correct, more consistently applicable premise is that market psychology and sentiment are the causes of news events and changes in stock prices, whereas fundamentals are purely lagging indicators, and the result of psychology and sentiment changes.
During a negative sentiment trend, the stock market declines, and the news seems to get worse and worse. Once the negative sentiment has run its course, however, and it’s time for sentiment to change direction, the general public then becomes subconsciously more positive.
This lag is a much more plausible reason as to why the stock market is a leading indicator, as opposed to some form of investor omniscience. This also provides a plausible reason as to why earnings lag stock prices, as earnings are the last segment in the chain of positive mood effects on a business growth cycle. It is also why those analysts who attempt to predict stock prices based on earnings fail so miserably. By the time earnings are affected by a change in social mood, the social mood trend has already been negative for some time. And this is why economists fail as well — the social mood has shifted well before they see evidence of it in their “indicators.”
“Experts’ earnings predictions exhibit positive bias and disappointing accuracy. These shortcomings are usually attributed to some combination of incomplete knowledge, incompetence, and/or misrepresentation.”
Mr. Olson’s article suggests that “the human desire for consensus leads to herding behavior among earnings forecasters,” with the herd always looking for the current trend to continue unabated and indefinitely. But, those that have experience in the non-linear work of the stock market understand that the most bullish calls by these “expert fundamentalists” almost always come at the top of a market or stock.
Next week, I will provide you with an overview of Elliott Wave analysis, and how we use it to identify changes in market direction before markets turn.

Simple answer is: In your display view add disable-output-escaping="yes" to your XSL statement like so:
xsl:value-of select="@CMImplPlan" disable-output-escaping="yes"
This will remove character output escaping for HTML characters.

Issue is you are using RichHTMLField to get the input from your end users for this field. So sharepoint adds some HTML tag. but when you are displaying you are using FormField, which is text based, so it shows all the HTML tags also.
So solution is : 1. Use RichHTMLField for both input and display 2. Use FormField/ Simple textbox for both input and display 3. Write a custom control / control extender to clean all the HTML before outputting it 4. Also a less recommended solution will be to search this tags on page via jQuery and remove them.

Are King Shepherds Expensive?
Are King Shepherds Expensive?
King Shepherds are very intelligent and can be trained to do tricks. These dogs are excellent guard dogs, so they are quite expensive, and most of them will have a high cost.
However, the price of adoption for these dogs is low and could be good for you if you have decided that a pet is not for you. King Shepherds can cost between $1500 and $2500, depending on the line and selection of dog.
King Shepherds are very popular among purebred owners, so they will be in high demand. This means that you may have a more difficult time finding a suitable home for your King Shepherd than if you were looking for a purebred of another breed.
Are King Shepherds The Same As German Shepherds?
German Shepherds are purebred dogs while King Shepherds are crossbred. There is a lot of debate on whether these two types should be classified as separate dog breeds or not, but they do have different personalities. King Shepherds are larger in size than German Shepherds, and a bit more aggressive.
This is significant since German shepherds have existed since the year 1900, but king shepherds were only produced in 1991. The King Shepherd has a smaller head, which is squarer than the German shepherd.
King Shepherds also have a tail almost double in length compared to the German Shepherds. Studies also show that these dogs have a bigger skull and cranium, which can make them more susceptible to skull diseases.
Does AKC recognize King Shepherds?
The King Shepherd is not yet recognized by the American Kennel Club, but the breed standard for this hybrid dog has been formulated. The founder of this hybrid breed wants to get the King Shepherd recognized, but there are no formal standards yet.
The AKC does recognize another small dog that is part German shepherd and part Dalmatian and comes from a similar crossbreeding process as the King Shepherd (the Vizsla).
Are King Shepherds Affectionate?
King shepherds are very affectionate, which can make them a great addition to the family. They do not require as much exercise as German Shepherds because their breeds are very different from each other.
This can be a potential problem if they are not socialized enough or if they have never met another animal or person before.
These dogs love being close to their owners, and will let you know exactly when they need something or are bored. They like to take walks, and will be very happy when they know that you are nearby. King Shepherds keep their owners close and do not like being left alone for too long.
Are There White King Shepherds?
King Shepherds can be white or black. They can also be tan with brown and black markings or grayish silver with black spots. It has been shown that, when kept in a cold environment for a long time, the color of their fur may change. This is not normal though.
The white color can help you in picking the right puppy if you are looking for a white colored King Shepherd. It is important that you learn more about this dog before making a decision.
Can King Shepherds Be Female?
Most King Shepherds are male, but there are some exceptions. It is possible to have a female King Shepherd that has been genetically modified. You can have a female dog with 50% male genes or a male dog with 50% female genes.
There are some ways to keep the hormones in check and make sure that your King Shepherd is healthy. This requires paying attention to the puppy’s diet, keeping it away from people, and making sure that the dog receives proper exercise.
Are There Black King Shepherds?
The primary colors of King Shepherds are fawn, red, black, brown and sable. You should make sure that the dog you are purchasing has some of these colors, especially if it is to be a guard dog.
The dogs generally have long hair and a coat that is similar to German Shepherds. This can help keep them warm when they are outside during the winter.
Are King Shepherds As Smart As German Shepherds?
King Shepherds are not as smart as German Shepherds. They do have an intelligence that is a bit lower than German Shepherds, but the main reason for this is that their breed was developed for a specific purpose.
These dogs focus on guarding, which makes them think less about other things. This can be a good thing since they will be more focused on protecting your home than they will be thinking of other things.
Are King Shepherds Better Than German Shepherds?
King Shepherds are a lot gentler, and larger than German Shepherds with few health issues, and they are more aggressive. Because they are bigger than most German Shepherds, they can be more comfortable as guard dogs.
However, King shepherds are not as smart as German Shepherds. King shepherds do great with guarding and training in order to develop their capabilities to the same level that German Shepherds have, but this takes much more time and training.
Are King Shepherds As Protective As German Shepherds?
King shepherds, when compared to German shepherds, are more docile and loving, making them an excellent choice for families with small children. However, King shepherds have an aggressive nature that makes them excellent guard dogs.
These dogs will do well with a family that is considerate of their temperament and care enough to train them properly from an early age. The best way to find out if a King Shepherd is ready for their training is to bring them to an obedience class.
Are King Shepherds Easy To Train?
King Shepherds are highly trainable, and thrive on positive reinforcement. They’re also very intelligent, often responding to simple commands; that’s because their intelligence is focused on one behavior at a time instead of multi-tasks.
Because of their protective nature, these dogs are known to be a bit aggressive. This can be turned into an advantage if they are trained on how to control their instincts.
These dogs respond well to positive reinforcement, and unless you don’t have the time or patience for training, you will have no problem with your King Shepherd.
Are King Shepherds Mean?
King Shepherds can be mean, and they are known to bite. A King Shepherd’s biting depends on the owner and how they were raised.
This means that if you raise your dog in a loving environment with the right training and enough exercise, the dog will not be aggressive or more prone to biting a person or another animal.
The best way to prevent this is to make sure that you spend enough time with your dog, and make sure that they are socialized around other animals or people.
The King Shepherd needs a lot of exercise, especially when it is young. This can be a problem if they are not walked enough. Some owners spend an entire day in the park and let their dog run free while they go shopping.
However, this is not enough to give your dog the exercise that they need. King Shepherds need a lot of room to run, and they need to be taken on long walks or jogs. If you cannot provide them with this, then you should not even consider getting a King Shepherd.
Are King Shepherds Territorial?
King Shepherds will occasionally show a territorial nature, especially when they are younger. This can be a problem if the dog is left alone for too long.
The best way to prevent this is to socialize the King Shepherd with other animals or people from the get-go. If you do not give them enough exercise, and that you do not socialize them, then having a King Shepherd as a pet will become harder and harder to keep sane.
Are King Shepherds Friendly?
King Shepherds are friendly and loving when they are raised from early age, and when they are socialized with other animals or people.
The best way to make sure that your dog will grow up to be a friendly pet is by spending enough time with them, as well as making sure that you socialize them from an early age.
They can be a little aggressive, but if you socialize them properly, they will become very friendly and loyal. Also, make sure that they get plenty of exercise.
Are King Shepherds Strong?
King shepherds have a lot of strength and power because they are larger than most and they also have stronger jaws. This is intended to help them bite, and to rip the flesh from their prey instead of nibbling at it like other dogs will do.
This makes them excellent guard dogs and hunters, but this come with more prey aggression that people may not want. They should be taken out on a leash, and you should make sure that they are not treated roughly when they are outside while they are being trained.
At What Age Do King Shepherds Stop Growing?
King shepherds will grow at the same rate as other dogs their size, and they will have full maturity by the time that they are 3 years old.
The best way to find out how long your dog will live is to get a health checkup done on them every year, and this can be done by taking them to your veterinarian.

Hi all
I've been trying to have a little feel of my cervix for the first time.
I've found it but it was so high my middle finger only just touched it.
It really aches now I've prodded it lol.
I think it was hard but again as I've never touched it before I can't be too sure?
How are you supposed to know if it's open/closed etc?
haveacupoftea Tue 25-Apr-17 01:53:41
Tbh I wouldn't go poking around in there, it isn't a reliable indicator of anything and you might end up scratching your cervix or giving yourself thrush or something.

On our last trip to the boat, we opened the sliding glass door and were greeted with the acrid odor of rotten eggs. A frantic search for the source revealed that we had an overcharged lead acid battery that was boiling and putting off hydrogen gas, a very dangerous situation (think Hindenberg). We quickly disconnected the bad battery, let it cool down and vented the cabin. Fortunately, since the house battery bank is hooked up in parallel, we were still able to get 12 volts for the rest of the trip, but it did prompt us to replace our lead acid batteries with sealed maintenance-free batteries. We had been planning to do this for a long time but had never gotten around to it. Now that the old batteries had gone bad, the time had come.
Acid Spill
Leaking Battery
Cindy researched our new batteries and we settled on Lifeline GPL-8DA 255 Amp-Hour Absorbed Glass Matrix (AGM) batteries for the boat’s house bank. AGM batteries use fiberglass mats to hold the electrolyte in contact with the lead plates.
The first step was to remove the old batteries and battery boxes from under the bunk in the guest cabin. One issue was that the old batteries did not have any handles on them and each of the three large house batteries weighed around 90 lbs. Add to that the fact that the batteries were a tight fit in their boxes, leaving you with no room to get a grip on the battery and the boxes were screwed to the floorboard. We solved this dilemma by getting a pair of shears and cutting away the sides of the plastic battery boxes so I could get a better grip on the batteries.
Cindy Cutting
Cutting Up Old Battery Boxes
Getting the batteries out just required brute force. I grabbed them by the sides and lifted them out of the compartment underneath the bunk (trying to use my legs as much as possible), then we wrapped straps around them and carried them in tandem out of the boat and onto the dock in stages…out of the compartment, up each individual step on the stairway into the salon, out into the cockpit, up onto the deck and out onto the dock.
Manhandling the Batteries
Manhandling The Batteries
With the old batteries out, Cindy pulled out the remains of the old battery boxes and installed the new ones while I recruited a helper from the marina (the folks who run Jekyll Harbor Marina are fantastic!) to get our 600 lbs of new batteries from the office (where we had them drop-shipped) down to the boat. Fortunately the tide was in so the gangway from shore to the dock was nearly level (at low tide the gangway is at almost a 45 degree angle…a steep angle when trying to control a cart with 600 lbs on it). The new AGM house batteries came equipped with rope handles on the sides since each battery weight 160 lbs, which made moving the batteries from the dock down into guest cabin a lot easier (well, less than impossible). After we manhandled all three house batteries onto the boat and down into the bunk compartment we toasted our success by drinking an ice cold Landshark.
The new batteries fit like a glove into the new boxes and we’re looking forward to many years of clean-smelling, maintenance-free performance out of them.

National Endowment of the Arts - The Big Read
A Lesson Before Dying
A Lesson Before Dying
by Ernest J. Gaines
The discussion activities and writing exercises in this guide provide you with possible essay topics, as do the Discussion Questions in the Reader’s Guide. Advanced students can come up with their own essay topics, provided they are interesting and specific. Other ideas for essays are provided here.
Students should organize their essays around a stated thesis, argument, or idea about the novel. This statement should be focused, with clear reasons supporting its conclusion. The thesis and supporting reasons should rely on references to the text.
2. Education is very important in this novel, both its attainment and the lack of it. Tante Lou continually refers to Grant as “the teacher.” The other men call him “Professor.” Yet Grant hates teaching, echoing the feelings of his own teacher, Matthew Antoine. Contrast the opinions of education presented in this novel. Why do some seek it and others consider it a burden? What role does it play in the characters’ lives and the life of the community?
3. Reread the description of Vivian from Chapter 4 and the passage in Chapter 15 about Vivian’s marriage. What was the cause of conflict between Vivian and her family over her marriage? What causes the conflict between Vivian and Tante Lou over her relationship with Grant? Why does Grant say that the conflicts are not the same, as Vivian believes?
4. Find specific examples of how Gaines uses different levels of language and non-verbal communication to make his characters realistic. How does the manner in which they speak or don’t speak enhance the story? How would the novel change if everyone spoke as Grant does, or as the older people in the quarter do? Or as Jefferson writes?
5. Grant’s fight with the mulatto sharecroppers demonstrates his anger and frustration. Why are the sharecroppers’ comments about Jefferson particularly hurtful? Would Grant have reacted in the same way if a black man had made similar comments? A white man? What might this scene teach us about the racial tensions in Louisiana in the 1940s?
6. On the morning of Jefferson’s execution, Grant leaves his classroom to stand outside, alone, to wait for news. He asks himself, “Why wasn’t I there? Why wasn’t I standing beside him? Why wasn’t my arm around him? Why?” Attempt to answer these questions, referring to the text of the novel for examples of Grant’s strengths or weaknesses.
7. Paul earns Grant’s respect through his treatment of Jefferson and his visitors. How is Paul different from the other jail keepers? How do his actions at the end of Jefferson’s life demonstrate Paul’s goodness? Why might he have chosen to attend the execution even though it was not part of his job? Why did he choose to drive out to the quarter to tell Grant the news personally?

Bailey Hall 108C
Department/Program: Mathematics
Areas of interest
Much of my early research was in the area of regression analysis, especially shrinkage estimators. In the private sector I developed a greater appreciation for, and interest in, experimental design methods. I have recently investigated Big Data analytics, particularly how and why things can go wrong when analyzing massive data sets. This ties to the discipline of statistical engineering, which emphasizes effective integration of multiple statistical and non-statistical methods in an overall approach to scientific inquiry. I am currently conducting research into how statistical engineering can provide effective strategies for attacking Big Data problems.

Trier, the oldest city in Germany
Trier is a city located on the banks of the Moselle river in Germany. It is found near the Luxembourg border to the west of Germany. The city, which is also known as Treves, was founded 4 centuries BCE, making it the oldest city in Germany. As you can expect, Trier is home to various landmarks, which are a testimony to its rich past.
There are so many sights and landmarks in Trier, that is it hard to list all of them in this page. The ones not to be missed are the Porta Nigra, which was built by the Romans 180 CE, the Trier Cathedral, the Roman Imperial Throne room, the Imperial Baths, the Main Market (Hauptmarkt), and the Palace Garden.

LE Error Code - Front Load Washer
Troubleshooting Washers Last Updated 08/25/2015
An LE error code on the washer's display indicates that the motor is locked, possibly due to a heavy wash load.
Large and heavy sized loads will put a strain on the motor, causing the LE code to occur. Performing a reset on the washer will normally resolve this error.
To reset the washing machine:
1. Press POWER to turn the washer off
2. Unplug the washer from the power outlet. If the outlet cannot be reached, turn the circuit breaker to the unit off.
3. With the power disabled to the washer, press and hold the START/PAUSE button for 5 seconds.
4. Plug the washer back in, or turn the circuit breaker back on.
The washer should now be reset and the LE code cleared. If washing a heavy or large load, reduce the load size and attempt to restart the cycle.
If the LE code appears again or if it is appearing on every cycle, the unit may require repair service.

Boxercise is based on the training concepts boxers use to keep fit. Sessions can take a variety of formats but a typical one may involve pad work, shadow-boxing, skipping, bag work, press-ups & sit-ups. Boxercise is aimed at men and women of all ages and fitness standard as it is a fun, challenging and a safe workout.
Boxing training is for everyone: Whatever your size, shape or sex. Remember, every boxer will have started from ground level, so anyone and everyone can work their way up to a good level of fitness!
Release your aggression: Boxing training is a great way to do that, making you feel calm because all the aggression is very channelled and controlled. Even though there is no physical contact, it enables you to feel in control of your body and more confident about protecting yourself if you are required to.
Focus energy and concentration: Training stimulates your mind and boosts your self-belief. What are you waiting for?
As you perform cardio routines and exercises, you are moving your arms and legs with a rhythmic movement that allows your body to pump blood and oxygen to all parts of your body. This strengthens your heart, burns calories and burns fat. There are also many different types of cardiovascular exercises so your workout routine will never get boring and as well as being used for body fat loss cardiovascular is essential for keeping your heart healthy and increasing your fitness level.
Cardiovascular exercise is a vital part of any fat loss programme but it does not strengthen your muscles or increase muscle tone. To lose body fat you MUST have strength training in your exercise routine. The more you work the muscles, the better and more defined your overall muscle tone looks. A lot of people don't use weight training for fear of bulking up. This is a myth-you need to combine both forms of exercise to reach your goals and I can help you achieve this.
The TRX Suspension Trainer is a workout system that leverages gravity and your bodyweight to perform hundreds of exercises. You're in control of how much you want to challenge yourself on each exercise because you can simply adjust your body position to add or decrease resistance so is an ideal piece of kit for beginners to advanced people and I will show how and what to do depending again on your goals.
The TRX delivers a fast, effective total-body workout; helps build a rock-solid core, increases muscular endurance and is a fun part of any training session.
You need to see progression in any training programme so fitness testing and body composition tests are an excellent way of recording your progress. I can do various static tests such as body measurements, body fat readings, and height, weight and BMI. There are also various dynamic tests such as the cooper 1.5 mile run, full sit up and press up tests for you to progress onto. Don’t worry I won’t do any tests on the first consultation (apart from checking your blood pressure) so I promise not to turn up with the skin fold callipers unless you want me to of course!
Circuit training tends to be intense, but it’s completely adaptable to the individual. Beginners use less weight and perform simpler moves than more-experienced exercisers, but everyone gets a good workout and its loads of fun!

Another Brutal Attack on Masjid-ul- Aqsa From the Forces of Israel Why Palestine Is Not Free?
Palestine also known as the state of Palestine is considered as the sovereign state with the designated capital Jerusalem. From a long time ago and in past decades there is a conflict between Palestine and Israel. The Palestine have a very huge important due to Masjid-e-Aqsa or Baitul Muqadas. For, Muslims this is a very holy place, and every year the people of Gaza and Palestine face a lot of difficulties. Muslims throughout the world have huge respect for Masjid-Aqsa in their hearts. However, it is sad to see that the Muslims of Palestine are not free there are under the brutality and cruelty of the Israeli forces. Palestine covers the Gaza Strip and Syria.
Israel Forces Attack on Masjid-Aqsa:
The Israeli forces attacked the worshippers who were busy in their prayers in Masjid-Aqsa. Many of the people were killed and injured in this brutal attack. This heartbreaking incident took place when the Muslims were busy offering their prayers and were worshipping on the 27th night of Ramadan. When the Israel forces were attacking Muslims, the people were still busy offering prayers. And they were not afraid of the guns.
More than a hundred people were injured during the attack and they were hospitalized. The Israeli forces also attack the people, beat them, and arrest them. People started protesting after the attack the police of Israel also attacked the protestors.
More Air Strikes from Israel Forces in Jerusalem:
According to recent reports, the Israeli forces have done airstrikes in Gaza and use rockets to kill people. As a result of this many, people are killed and injured. Almost nine children are killed in these Israeli airstrikes. This caused a massive explosion in Gaza.
What is the Main Conflict Between Israel and Palestine?
The issue and conflict between Palestine and Israel started a long time ago. This conflict started when the people of Israel who are also known as Jewish came to Palestine. The people of Israel called Palestine their land while they are also using force against the oppressed Muslims. This matter is based on a long discussion and till the matter is unresolved. So, the Israeli forces start using force against Muslims and this all has been happening since 1948. Many of the other issues are also attached to this conflict.
Many people think that this all is happening because there is hypocrisy which is on its top level. Some people think that the conflict arises because there are some gaps in western democracy. However, I think that this is not only hypocrisy, this is terrorism, this is racial discrimination, this is bigotry, this is religious intolerance and especially this is hatred. All these aspects and the hatred that is against the oppressed Muslims. This is the reason that the whole nation is suffering today. Because everyone thinks that this is not something new and this will keep on happening.
However, the question why this is happening? The Muslims of Palestine are suffering for centuries why no one is taking action on this oppression and brutality?
What is the Aim of the Free Palestine Movement?
A movement has been started for the justice of the people of Palestine in which people demanded that Palestine should be free. The Free Palestine movement was founded by the business of Syria in which he demanded that all the Syrian rebels must be eradicated from the country. He said that Palestine must be free.
In my point of view, what is meant by free Palestine? The free Palestine in which Muslims should not suffer, a country in which people can simply worship in their mosques freely. A free Palestine in which there will be no killing of men, women, and children. A free Palestine will be free from all the rockets and air missile strikes. Because the protection of the holy place and justice for the oppressed Muslims is the topmost priority.
Why World Is Silent on this Brutality?
This all has been happening since 1948 and the circumstances are so sensitive in Palestine. These issues should be addressed quickly by the international jurisdictions. However, it is very sad to see that the international communities and allied powers on silent on it. Where the United Nations charter always talk about human rights? Where is a human right constitution?
Why these issues are not addressed internationally? Why the world is silent on Israel’s continuous brutality in Palestine. Moreover, justice should be done with the people of Palestine and for the protection of the holy place Bait-Al-Muqaddas. It’s time to say no to Israel’s continuous oppression and brutality in Palestine.

The Daily Register - Harrisburg, IL
• Senate Democrats on track to pass budget
• Democrats controlling the Senate moved on Friday toward approving their first budget in four years, promising another, almost $1 trillion round of tax increases on top of more than $600 billion in higher taxes on the wealthy enacted in January.
• email print
The nonbinding but politically symbolic measure would protect safety-net programs for the poor and popular domestic priorities like education, health research and federal law enforcement agencies from cuts sought by House Republicans, who adopted a far more austere plan on Thursday.
The Democratic plan caters to party stalwarts on the liberal edge of the spectrum just as the House GOP measure was crafted to appeal to more recent tea party arrivals. The $1 trillion in new revenue would accrue over the coming decade and would be coupled with a net $875 billion in spending cuts, generated by modest cuts to federal health care programs, domestic agencies and the Pentagon and reduced government borrowing costs.
Ryan's plan passed the House on a mostly party-line, 221-207 vote, with 10 Republicans joining Democrats against it.
Senators braced for dozens of votes during a marathon session expected on Friday, with pessimists in the Capitol predicting a final vote on the Democratic plan in the pre-dawn hours of Saturday. In early voting Friday morning, Democrats rejected yet another attempt to repeal Obama's landmark health care law by a strictly party-line vote.
That tall stack of votes follows up a quintet of politically freighted Senate tallies Thursday night, including a move by Democrats to force a vote on the controversial Ryan budget, which was rejected by a 59-40 vote, with five Republicans joining every Democrat in opposition.
Republicans countered with a move by Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., putting Democrats on record in opposition to balancing the budget by the end of the decade. It failed on a near party-line vote.
Indeed, Thursday's votes demonstrated the raw politics driving the budget debate, which is more a display of party positions and priorities than an attempt to move the combatants closer together.
Page 2 of 2 - What the Ryan and Murray budgets both fail to do is reach out to the political middle, where any possible bargain would have to be forged. President Barack Obama has been reaching out to lawmakers in hopes of sparking a budget compromise that has proved so elusive.
But Murray's plan would actually increase government spending — on top of a baseline that already assumes automatic budget increases averaging more than 5 percent a year — after accounting for the $1.2 trillion cost of repealing the automatic cuts, known as sequestration. That means the net cuts to the deficit would amount to just a few hundred billion dollars in a federal budget estimated at $46 trillion or so over the coming decade.
Murray's position is that the automatic cuts were designed to prod Washington into action on the debt and were never intended to take effect. By that math, her budget promises $1.85 trillion in lower deficits after 10 years. She points out that Republicans on a 2011 deficit "supercommittee" used the same math when describing their proposals.
"Sequestration was not deficit reduction," Murray said. "It was there to trigger deficit reduction that would come from replacing it."

What an amazing specimen~ You must be taking care of it perfectly. This looks like Bishop's Cap Cactus, Astrophytum myriostigma
Do a Google search and you will find a lot of them that look exactly like yours.

Meat vs Greens
What’s better—a vegetarian diet or a non-vegetarian one?
A high-meat diet could increase the risk of cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes.
About a year ago, I asked myself a question: ‘Knowing what I know, why am I not a vegetarian?’ I knew that eating a mere hamburger a day can increase my risk of dying by a third.... Environmentally, meat causes more emissions than all of transportation combined: cars, trains, planes, buses, boats, all of it.” Graham Hill, the New York-based founder of Treehugger.com, a one-stop shop for green news, covered all the major findings—give or take some research—when he talked about why being a non-vegetarian is not the world’s best idea, at a 2010 TED conference. TED is a non-profit devoted to ideas worth spreading.
That’s just one side of the coin though. There is a section of research—albeit a tad less—that suggests otherwise: Meat in the diet ensures optimal nutrition. The studies keep coming, leaving the health world divided over what provides wholesome nutrition: meat or greens. For the time being, it seems to be tilted a little towards the latter.
Let’s take stock
The one question that is often raised in a meat-versus-green debate is, “How will I get my protein if I don’t eat meat?” That’s a myth, says Shikha Sharma, founder of health management centre Nutri-Health Systems in Delhi. “We don’t really need meat to complete our dietary requirements—30g of chicken/fish/egg will give you 6g proteins, almost what 30g of pulses will provide. Many of our pehelwans are vegetarians. And the hygiene conditions of our slaughterhouses are nothing to boast about.”
But then, what about studies that suggest a vegetarian diet—comprising fruits, vegetables, nuts and wholegrain products—could increase the risk of cancer, allergies, even depression? “Most studies are conducted in a controlled environment, so it’s difficult to say that they apply to all. It’s not like vegetarians don’t die of high cholesterol or heart disease. It depends on the person, the kind of lifestyle he/she leads and genetics,” says Peeyush Jain, head, preventive cardiology, at the Fortis Escorts Heart Institute and Research Centre in New Delhi. “Also, we are genetically different from people in the US or Europe,” reasons Sheela Krishnaswamy, national president of the Indian Dietetic Association.
Dr Jain says it’s true that a high-meat diet could increase the risk of cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes (experts say an average person should not have more than 100g of meat, irrespective of whether it is red or poultry, in a day). “But it’s also true that people might miss out on vitamin B12 and calcium if they only stick to vegetables and fruits. So, an average person leading a sedentary lifestyle has to be really careful about where those 1,900 or so calories that one’s supposed to consume every day are coming from,” says Krishnaswamy.
Ideally, 20% of what we eat should be good unsaturated fats (coconut oil, dairy products, avocado, nuts), 25% proteins (either from plants or animals) and the remaining divided between carbohydrates and fibre.
“Even our fruits and vegetables are laden with pesticides, so the risk of falling sick can’t be negated in a vegetarian diet,” says Sharma, adding, “The same risk increases in the meat-eating diet too beabecauseb there’s a possibility that the animal you are eating might have eaten those chemical-laden plants.”
What’s for dinner?
“Meat is not a staple for us as it is for countries like China or the US, where eating non-vegetarian food is part of the daily diet,” says Krishnaswamy. According to a survey released in June by the Registrar of India, seven out of 10 Indians are non-vegetarians, but the average meat consumption of a person in a year is a mere 4.4kg. A 2013 report by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization says the US alone consumes 120.2kg meat per person in a year, while the UK consumes 84.2kg—the world average is 41.9kg. For China, the figure is 58.2kg.
Concerned about the increasing meat consumption, the Chinese government issued new dietary guidelines a few months ago, asking citizens to reduce their meat intake to 40-75g per person per day, down 50% (China consumes 28% of the world’s meat, according to the OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2015-2024 publication). This, the government believes, would help control the country’s rising obesity problems and “reduce planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions by 1 billion tonnes by 2030”. Over 14% of greenhouse gas emissions emanate from livestock.
Even our fruits and vegetables are laden with pesticides.
Even our fruits and vegetables are laden with pesticides.
Keep it balanced
When there is so much information about the harmful effects of meat on the body as well as the environment, why do people still eat it? “Our earliest ancestors were vegans, living on plants, nuts and seeds—and not flesh-eating carnivores, as many people believe. It was only two million years ago, when the tools and bodies were ready, that they became meat eaters,” says science writer Marta Zaraska, author of Meathooked: The History And Science Of Our 2.5-Million Year Obsession With Meat. This “meat hunger” is actually a hunger for protein, which can be satiated by eating pulses and grains, says Zaraska.
But expecting a non-vegetarian to give up meat is difficult, just as it is tough to ask a vegetarian to eat meat. “No matter how much we debate, it’s really a matter of personal choice and priorities. If you care about the environment and can make healthy choices, there’s nothing wrong with going green. If you can’t give up on meat, consider moderation,” suggests Dr Jain.
Or become a “weekday veg” like Graham Hill. “Nothing with a face, Monday through Friday. On the weekend, your choice. Simple,” he said during his TED talk.
What research says
A timeline of findings over the years
‘The American Journal Of Clinical Nutrition’ published a study of 6,000 vegetarians and 5,000 non-vegetarians in the UK, conducted from 1980-84. It found that vegetarians had lower cholesterol levels.
‘PLoS One’ published an Austrian study of 1,320 individuals which found that a vegetarian diet carried with it an elevated risk of cancer, allergies and mental health problems such as anxiety.
The ‘American Journal Of Epidemiology’ published an Australian study of 6,700 people, in the 58-69 age group, which found that red-meat eaters are almost 50% more likely to suffer age-
related macular degeneration.
The ‘Climate Change’ journal published a study that showed meat-eaters’ contribution to greenhouse gas emissions was twice as high as that of vegans (including vegans who do not consume animal by-products like eggs and dairy).
The ‘Environment Systems And Decisions’ journal published a study that found many common vegetables, including eggplant, celery and cucumbers, required more resources for cultivation, and produced higher greenhouse gas emissions than some types of meat.
A study in the ‘Molecular Biology And Evolution’ journal said people whose families had stuck to a primarily vegetarian diet for generations were likely to be at an increased risk of heart disease and cancer.
A study of 170,000 people in the ‘JAMA Internal Medicine’ journal said too much animal protein intake, particularly red and processed meat, may increase the risk of early death.

Natalie Wheen
Hovering between fact and fantasy
Natalie Wheen is thrilled by the sights and sounds of a largely reconstructed Dresden
Text settings
I had the strangest experience at the ballet in Dresden: all perfectly pretty onstage, the company well schooled but I couldn't believe the orchestra. I've never heard a ballet orchestra playing with such love for the music - beautiful phrasing, elegantly balanced winds, seamless ensemble, the right notes all the time, in tune...I had to pinch myself.
Of course, this was no ordinary ballet band; at the Semper Oper in Dresden, the Staatskapelle, with a 455-year-old reputation to guard, has the longest record of continuous work of any bunch of musicians. The orchestra did first performances for Wagner and Weber, nine premieres for Richard Strauss, his dream team. It was Beethoven's super band. No wonder it has this rich sound, the depth to it from years of fine polishing the ensemble - and not least from working every day with singers for something like 300 years. Heinrich Schutz, who arrived in Dresden in 1612, made the court music the most famous in Germany by bringing in the rich sounds of Monteverdi and writing the first German opera. And Gottfried Semper's late 19th-century building for the Saxon State Opera is the eighth theatre on the site.
Being in Dresden brings an unnerving sensation that the city is hovering in some middle ground between fact and fantasy. Come out of the Semper opera building and you step into a painting, one of those 1750s cityscapes by Bellotto: the Zwinger to the right, once pleasure gardens designed as a Baroque setting for sensational parties for Elector Augustus the Strong, and now home to his and his son's art collections, the cultural heartbeat of Dresden today. Across the square is the Catholic Hofkirche, with the Residenzschloss just behind, with its famous tiled frieze showing the stately progress of the Saxon rulers over 800 years. You know that further on is Br

NASCAR ricket prices were one thing...
but NASCAR got away from their formula. It used to be points driven, now they have the Chase. It used to be an American legacy, now they have Toyota. It used to be a Southern sport along with some Northeast redneck boys, but now it's overrun with Californian kids with no charisma. The cars used to look different with Ford, Mercury, Dodge, Chevy and Pontiac. Now you can't tell the difference between any of the NextGen cars no matter what the make. NASCAR now has more races in California (4 per year) than in the Carolinas (3). No more Rockingham, only one race in Darlington... where the real race fans live. And for close to a decade, NASCAR made the mistake of being on ESPN where the coverage was vanilla and getting politically correct. And it used to be the WINSTON Cup where men celebrated with beer, not Coca Cola.
So yeah, tickets hurt the sport, but there's so much more.
And I've never been a Dale Jr fan. But once he retires, the sport will lose even more fans next year.
So to your point, greed kills a lot of sports. I hope college football and basketball learns some lessons. Already, rivalries are going to the wayside in trade for large 14-team conferences in the name of "media markets." Athletic scholarships are no longer enough and the kids "need" stippends. Recruiting seasons are all fuzzy and run all year long. Recruiting starts as early as Middle School now. Over-the-top concerns on safety are trickling down to the high school level and we're seeing the death of some HS football programs because they can't afford the equipment. Social media turns the sport into a carnival akin to WWF.

The Beauty Of Minimalism In Art
Art Prints
I'm unsure as to why I like minimalism although I think it tends to be the feeling of air, freedom and space that attracts my eye and my thoughts. I can't really explain it and perhaps it isn't even necessary to explain.

I had a lot of these works partly finished, but as a great deal of my art is combining digital with traditional mediums, it does take me a lot of time to arrive at a complete artwork. Scanning, painting with watercolor, acrylic and pastels takes a lot of time and thought, plus a lot of mess.

Can Lexapro dosage be modified to combat side effects like nausea, jitteriness and is there any alternative?

Hi, I am currently on Lexapro 15mg per day for Anxiety Disorder. I have been for about 3 months. Previously was on Paxil. I started on 10mg of Lexapro and had a good week or so and then it seemed to not work. When I increased to 15mg of Lexapro I had horrible side effects for a few weeks (nausea was the main side effect and not being able to fall asleep and waking up early). Eventually the side effects decreased (other then the waking up early) and I felt better. However, I feel very good for a couple weeks and then feel awful again (feel down and jittery and very nauseated) and then feel better again for week or more. Should I supplement my Lexapro with other medicines or lower the dosage or raise the dosage ?
Posted Tue, 24 Dec 2013 in Mental Health
Answered by Dr. Preeti Parakh 1 hour later
Brief Answer: Hike up the dose of Lexapro. Detailed Answer: Hi, Welcome to Healthcare Magic! In my opinion, the present symptoms of jitteriness, low mood and nausea indicate that the disease is still not under control. So there is no point in lowering the dose of Lexapro. Before adding other medicines which may or may not work, I feel that you should hike up the dose of Lexapro to 20 mg per day and wait for around six to eight weeks to see the response. Whenever a new antidepressant is added or the dose of an existing one is hiked, there may be the worsening of anxiety for a few days. In addition, the antidepressant usually takes around six weeks to show its response. To ensure that this is not troublesome, most of the psychiatrists prefer to add a benzodiazepine with the antidepressant for the initial few weeks to control the anxiety till the antidepressant starts working. If your doctor would agree to prescribe one for you, I feel you will do much better. I do not know if you are taking Lexapro in the morning or the evening. But if you are taking it in the evening/night, shift it to the morning (after breakfast) and you will notice an improvement in your sleep problem. Hope this helps you. Please feel free to ask if you need any clarifications. Best wishes. Dr Preeti Parakh MD Psychiatry

Is it common that I do feel well for a number of days or even weeks and then feel the low mood , anxiety and nausea for days or weeks at a time and then feel better for days or weeks...without altering the dosage ? Also, I did have terrible side effects moving from 10-15mg for a number of weeks. The move to 20mg is less of a percentage increase and I have been on the drug for longer so should I expect less side effects ? If so, how long would be normal to experience them? I should note I had the DNA test and I am a normal metaboliser for the enzyme associated with Lexapro.

Brief Answer: Explained below. Detailed Answer: Hi, No, this episodic worsening is not common except in people who lead very stressful lives. Every stressful event acts as a setback and is associated with a worsening of symptoms, which gradually improve when the stressor is gone. The other possibility is that in addition to Anxiety Disorder, you also suffer from depressive episodes which has a tendency to recur. Depressive episodes are characterized by persistent low mood for at least a couple of weeks, loss of interest, fatigue, poor concentration, decreased sleep, hopelessness etc. I expect that you will have lesser side effects this time, which in my experience are usually gone within two weeks. But this varies from person to person and you seem to be prone to develop side effects. If possible, please try to do some relaxation exercises to help control the anxiety and lower the stress. Progressive muscular relaxation exercise and autogenic relaxation are both very effective and the detailed instructions are easily available online. I know of one patient who was unable to tolerate any medicine for anxiety but improved significantly with only relaxation exercises. Take care. Best wishes. Dr Preeti Parakh MD Psychiatry

Hi, Thanks again for your reply. I don't lead a very stressful life but don't handle stress well. Anyway, I seem to know what events cause the stress and anxiety and yet these times of feeling bad don't always seem to link back to these trigger events. Also, how would taking the medicine in the morning help sleep if the medicine will be in a steady state in my body by now anyway ?
Answered by Dr. Preeti Parakh 50 minutes later
Brief Answer: As below. Detailed Answer: Hi, All SSRIs including Lexapro can cause either sedation or insomnia, but insomnia is more common as SSRIs are activating. For people who perceive sedation with SSRIs, it is recommended that the drug be taken in the night. For all others, it is advised that SSRIs be taken in the morning after breakfast. This is something that is well known and mentioned in all basic text books. Even after steady state levels are achieved, when any medicine is taken, the levels are more for a few hours after the dose as compared to later. The steady state level is when the amount of drug in the plasma has built up to a concentration level that is therapeutically effective and as long as regular doses are administered to balance the amount of drug being cleared the drug will continue to be active. It means that the amount of drug that is being excreted is similar to the amount that is being taken in. It does not mean that there is no fluctuation in the drug level all through the day. Try taking the SSRI in the morning and see if it makes a difference. If your periods of exacerbation are not associated with stressors, then it is certainly an uncommon phenomenon. Though I still feel that relaxation exercises will help you. Best wishes. Dr Preeti Parakh MD Psychiatry

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Is it possible to take half the dose of Lexapro at night and half in the morning ? Also , I was previously on Paxil and it worked well for about 10 years until it 'pooped out'. Is there anything that is similar to Paxil or if I switch back to Paxil might that work now that I have been off it for 4 months ?
Answered by Dr. Preeti Parakh 30 minutes later
Brief Answer: Yes and maybe yes. Detailed Answer: Hi, There is no need to divide the dose of Lexapro into two as it has a fairly long half life to allow for a once-a-day dosing. But it certainly can be done if you would like to try shifting just half the dose to the morning before deciding whether to shift the entire dose to morning or not. Try shifting half the dose to morning for a few days, and then if you are comfortable, you can take the entire dose in the morning. If you feel that dividing the dose into two reduces the nausea, then you can continue on it. The bottom line is that you can do it if it suits you. Regarding Paxil, I do not know what dose you were on, but if there is any exacerbation while on a SSRI that has been effective for long, then the usual strategy is to increase the dosage to provide extra cover. If the dose is already maximum, then we add a second medicine to augment the effects of the first one. Changing a drug which has helped you for so long is done only as the last resort. Although there has been some research to show that in some people the SSRI loses its efficacy over time, the exact mechanism is not known. So one cannot predict whether Paxil would work for you now or not. Moreover, Paxil and Lexapro are both SSRIs and so, have similar mechanisms of action but there also are some differences in receptor binding capacity. In my opinion, if you were much better on Paxil and did not have any significant side effects, then you should certainly give it a try again. Regarding other similar medicines, Zoloft and Prozac are possible alternatives to Paxil and Lexapro. I hope that you have got your thyroid hormone levels tested recently. If not, please get it done as a thyroid hormone abnormality can cause break-through episodes of anxiety or depression. Best wishes. Dr Preeti Parakh MD Psychiatry

It depends what you mean by "spiritual." Eliot also said that at the
time of TWL he considered becoming a Buddhist, though he rejected that.
And my previous point was that there is a dry cistern in
"Introspection": dry cisterns can exist also apart from the Biblical
ones, and that one did.
No one denies there are allusions to the Bible in TWL. There are also
allusions to Buddha's "Fire Sermon" and to many other things. The three
themes in V include the image of the half of Europe on the way to chaos,
singing drunkenly like Dmitri Karamasoff.
So if your point is that there are Biblical allusions, that is not at
issue. But there is no necessary connection to Jeremiah in the surreal
scene of a destroyed landscape just because there is a cistern there.
We do not "establish" anything by showing that there are cisterns in
both places and that the poem also is about water. The poem is not a
puzzle, and the landscape is individual and nightmarish. Eliot said his
writing of this was like the illumination that a long illness could
produce in literature as well as religion.
I'm trying to note that the poem is not explained or experienced or
understood by making every individual word part of something else, even
if he did use allusions. Many critics, in any case, have read it
differently. Kenner made a great point of dismissing source
hunting---as did Eliot.
>>> cr mittal <[log in to unmask]> 07/07/07 9:58 PM >>>
It's not just a matter of "cisterns", Nancy.
Let me add to Jeremiah ii, 13 Solomon's exhortation in
Proverbs v, 15 :
'Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters
out of thine own well'.
Eliot could easily have these biblical sources in mind
vis-a-vis "empty cisterns and exhausted wells".
Mark also in this context the preceding 29-line quest for water
beginning "Here is no water..."
And all this in the context of the opening lines
"He who was living is now dead" etc.
as well as the context of the journey to Emmaus and to Chapel
What more context do we need to establish that Eliot's quest for
water here is a spiritual quest? Incidentally, Eliot thought that
quest-for-water lines to be the only 'good lines in The Waste Land',
the rest being ephemeral (Letter of 14 August 1923 to Ford Madox
Ford, WL Drafts, p. 129). [Manju Jain, Notes, p. 184]
Nancy Gish <[log in to unmask]> wrote:
Yes, it is now placed in a new context that can, if you want, be read
religious, but that is not its first appearance. That is what I said.
There are cisterns in the Old Testament and plenty other cisterns.
What is significant here is that TWL has been read in very different
ways since 1922; the religious reading is mainly a look back from later
work and was not what readers first thought. That there are religious
images is not, in itself, reason to see it as longing for religion. In
any case, the cistern does not need to be read through the Old Testament
unless one places it in a larger context that is only one way of reading
the poem.
>>> cr mittal 07/07/07 8:13 PM >>>
And voices singing out of empty cisterns and exhausted wells.
The context of this line from 'What the Thunder Said' is already
there in the opening lines of the section:
// He who was living is now dead //
We who were living are now dying
With a little patience
And this elaboration of what Peter Montgomery wrote :
In the Old Testament the empty cisterns and wells signified the loss
of faith and worship of false gods. God tells the prophet Jeremiah:
'For my people have committed two evils; //they have forsaken me
cisterns, that can hold no water'// (Jeremiah ii, 13).
~ Notes on T.S. Eliot's Selected Poems by Manju Jain
(Delhi: OUP, 1998, p.188):
Nancy Gish wrote: The image of the cistern
appears in a loose leaf of Eliot's notebook,
INVENTIONS OF THE MARCH HARE. It is undated but part of material well
before TWL and in the context of "introspection," which he was thinking
about in relation to Bradley and wrote about to his mother in 1917.
//Eliot used images over and over, but this one does not seem to
have begun in religious or in Waste Land sources.//

Kids would lay around, evaporating.
Stages of internet fame
1: popular among the people quickest to start liking a new celebrity/fad (trend setters), otherwise unheard of
2: the popularity of this celebrity/fad among trend setters really annoys some people and those people criticize them/it and their/it’s fan’s.
3: it becomes so popular to criticize the trend/celebrity that more people dislike it than like it. It’s basically universally hated.
4: the criticism gets too unrelenting and intense, so much so that the critics become more unlikable than the die hard fans
5: some people start to give some sort of argument as to why ‘x’ isn’t so bad.
6: the trend or celebrity starts to pick up in popularity again. People who liked them/it the whole time admit their true feelings and people who dislike it either calm down or double down in their hatred.
7: something happens and the trend/celebrity is revealed to be problematic. Everyone abandons it again besides die hard fans.
I know I’ve said it before, but the people going “Ew, Fortnite, this generation is garbage. Kids are so stupid these days,” are the same people who were kids that loved DDR, Power Rangers, Gangnam Style, and all that. They were people who promised never to be like those that were condensing to them. Yet here many of them are… criticizing kids just like the generation before them. It’s just a weird cycle. Especially because Fortnite and all the other current fads are honestly harmless.
More Ugly Truths
· Chemically and nutritionwise, there is no difference between syrup from sugar beets, cane sugar and corn. It’s just marketing. You cannot tell the difference between the three in a blind taste test, nor in a randomized sight test. The only way to tell the difference is with specialized equipment.
· Bisphenol A, or BPA, is safe. No reputable studies have shown otherwise.
· Vaccines are safe. The only reason anyone thinks otherwise is because Andrew Wakefield wanted to sell his own vaccine.
· Vani Hari (aka the Food Babe), David Wolf, Mike Adams, Joe Mercola, Jim Humble, Morgan Spurlock, Al Gore, Gwyneth Paltrow, et al, are frauds. None are doctors, or scientists. In fact, most of what they sell on their websites is either harmless bullshit (due to being sugar pills), or dangerous as fuck (MMS – aka Miracle Mineral Solution – is an industrial bleach).
· Organic simply means that it was once alive. The label slapped on food is for marketing, typically to get you to pay more for an inferior product.
· Non-GMO on a label is the same thing, except also a lie. All foods have been genetically modified. Since the dawn of agriculture. About 200,000 years ago.
· Gene editing crops is harmless. It is merely a faster, more efficient way of cross-breeding. Before you use the uneducated whine of “cross breeding can’t put fish genes in tomatoes,” look at your hands. See that bit of skin between your thumb and index fingers? That’s a genetic remnant of when our ancestors were aquatic. Yes, you have the genes of a fish. Going down to the building blocks of life – DNA & RNA – all life on earth is related.
· Those humans held up as paragons of humanity (ex Nelson Mandela; Gandhi; Agnese Gonxhe Bojaxhiu, aka Mother Theresa) were not. They were deeply flawed humans, sometimes cruelly so. Marketing again.
· Marketing is not only ubiquitous, but extremely powerful. Don’t believe me? The term “alt-right” when popularized by Milo Yianoppolis, meant “separate from the Republicans In Name Only.” He used it to describe those who were more conservative than guys like John McCain. Thanks to marketing, it means white supremacists. Further example? Nazis, Feminists, Communists, and Socialists are – at root – the same thing. Thanks to marketing, college age Americans think Socialism, Communism and Feminism are all good things.
· Unless you have Celiac’s Disease, you need gluten in your diet.
· Carbohydrates are fine.
· Dose is what makes the poison. Too much water & too much oxygen can both kill you.
· You breathe in more aluminum everyday than what is in a vaccine.
· One pear has more formaldehyde in it than what is in all the vaccines you get combined.
· Your kids will get more vaccines than what you did because we can now prevent more things with them than when you were a kid. For example, it’s possible if you were a kid in the 1980’s (or before), you got the chicken pox. The vaccine finally passed all trials and was added to the schedule in 1995.
· People are getting fatter due to an increasingly sedentary life, not “processed foods,” HFCS, or anything else that fad diets & woo peddlers like to blame. It literally does not matter how “healthy” foods are, you’re gonna become fat if you eat more than you burn off. If this were not true, then people would not have been able to lose weight just by eating donuts and Twinkies, or McDonald’s.
· All food is processed. “Processed” merely means “changed.” When applied to food items, it’s changed from a living thing, into food. Pulling an ear of corn off the stalk, and cooking it, is processing it.
· Everything in the entire universe is chemicals. It is impossible to escape them.
· Vegetarian/Vegan/Pescetarian/Carnivorous diets, and their various off-shoots are inherently unhealthy for people. Humans are omnivorous. To be healthy, we need meat (including fish), plants, and fruits. If you’re missing any of that in your diet, you’re missing some form of nutrients.
My chiropractor recommended that I start taking collagen every day for joint support. She said “it’s great! You can’t even taste it when you mix it with water or almond milk.” After she said this, I started seeing collagen supplements every where and I got curious. Translation: I fell for the hype of collagen supplements. I could not find any vegetarian collagen at the health food store. The marine based collage (from fish) was super expensive. So, I ended up with straight up collagen made from cows. Every morning, Monday through Friday, I dump a scoop and half of bovine collagen in to my almond milk.
And I hate it.
It makes my almond milk taste weird and if it’s not stirred well enough you end up swallowing goopy clumps of collagen. I have been drinking it for a month and I do not feel a difference in my old lady achy joints. I feel guilty for drinking crushed up cow cartilage. I feel guilty for buying crushed up cow cartilage. You are probably wondering why I don’t just stop drinking the collagen and throw it out. Well, bovine collagen is only slight less expensive than marine collagen. Since both of my parents taught me to value a dollar, I cannot just throw out a $40 tub of bovine collagen powder. So I will continue to drink my collagen laced almond milk every morning while grimacing and crying on the inside as I think about the process of grinding up cows. Then I will never buy another container of it again, so help me God.
Sometimes I fall for the next big health craze. I’ve done lemon water first thing in the morning and have mixed apple cider vinegar with honey in water. I didn’t really see or feel any different after a few weeks of either of those routines. I did the Cleansing Diet once. That’s the one where you give up sugar, gluten, animal products, alcohol and caffeine. I did this for a week and it ultimately lead to me becoming mostly vegetarian. It turned me into a label reader and it’s why most of the food on our grocery list is fresh produce. There might be one or two canned items on the list, but mostly everything goes in the fridge. Chris and I did a juice diet once. I lost five pounds which I quickly gained back and had a roller coaster mood. I could hug you and then turn right around and punch you in the throat. The only thing gained from that health craze was the thrill I got from pulverizing stuff in the juicer. I’ve been drinking kombucha with my lunch for months now. I have seen a slight reduction in my belly, but that could also be from the forearm plank challenge I’ve corralled half the guys in my office into doing everyday. Sometimes I end up doing the challenge twice, once on my own and again with the group. That means this week, I’ve done two minute forearm planks twice a day.
I can become so neurotic about my food.
I’m trying to be less neurotic and more obsessive about really good ingredients. I am going to the Asian Market this weekend to buy miso that has been aged no less than three years and smoked bonito. I am trying to find a way to purchase fresh (not frozen or canned) snails. I am in the early stages of trying to convince Michael to buy me an Italian Red Cow so that I can start making my own parmesan cheese. We were talking about turnip greens at work the other day and my boss said “I can get you turnips. My Dad plants them as a cover crop.” I told him to bring me all of the turnips and greens he could shove into a bag. I’ve had visions of steaming bowls of seasoned turnip greens ever since. I put smoked oysters on my half of the pizza I made on Sunday and marveled at the smokey rich flavor the oysters added to the pizza. I want to make hearty rich sauces that requires quality butter and wine.
I am not in search of exotic flavors, but true authentic flavors. This country is a melting pot of cultures, yet I find that so often the flavors of those cultures are diluted in order to not overwhelm someone not used to those flavors. I’ve been to Chinese restaurants that have an ‘American’ menu and a ‘Chinese’ menu. The items between those two menus differ greatly. My favorite Vietnamese restaurant is the one that is crowded and a little dirty. We always end up sharing our table with another couple. The egg rolls remind me of the ones Chris’s mom makes. The best Mexican place is the taquiera that has there menu written out daily on a chalkboard. The taco fillings are determined by what ever the butcher or fishmonger had available that day.
I want to fall for the fad of undiluted.
Let’s leave to the women in their thirties–and in fact encourage them–the pleasure of following every new fashion trend. …. But those fortunate women who have already established their own style and intend to preserve it should concentrate on the lass startling models, which will not be dated like a bottle of wine by some current faddish detail.
— Genevieve Antoine Dariaux, Elegance: A Complete Guide for Every Woman Who Wants To Be Well and Properly Dressed on All Occasions, 1964. I do like the idea of women in their thirties as those crazy kids who should can enjoy all the new wacky fads. This is one of my favorite vintage fashion advice books.

Fads In This Life
A great deal of time and effort are put into hobbies, a well rounded hobby may even earn you some cash and hails of compliments on how talented and dedicated you are, but not me. I am someone who cannot focus- my soul, something so dark like a morning pot of coffee, can never be satiated- I make it a hobby to explore new things, and well, forget old things.
Check out cool art works here.
A great deal of interest and uninterest have been laid out across my table. Sometimes, I do think that my soul is a black hole that can never be filled- whatever draws near, just magically disappears. It is in my great interest to learn and absorb things, but a lot of things I discard like a cigarette butt when I no longer care for it. This post is just about the many great fads I’ve had in my life, and some of them are really interesting things that may catch your eye.
1.) Painting
Who has not tried painting? Every aspiring artist has, maybe tried to sought for the mastery in painting. I love painting, or maybe the idea of excelling in it. I loved the hues and textures of colors, the semblance of art into life and what not, but to be really honest, I just used a stencil to paint good. AND I TELL YOU it is a bitch when you try to let it dry out, because some paintings would need weeks just for it to do that. One of the reasons I painted is for therapy, I wanted to express my emotions and turn it into beautiful art, but what it really was, was just a big mess.
2.) Taking care of pets
I did own a wide array of pets in the past. The reason they are gone or were given away is that- when a person who has depression gets into an episode, they lose things they were once interested in- which is what happens every time in my case. I owned 2 hedgehogs, 2 scorpions, 3 turtles, 2 lizards, a snake, and a whole lot of fishes. I was such a bad owner to them. I vow to never get pets til I get my shit straight.
3.) Vaping
Millennials and their vapes. Yes, I went through the vaping stage. It just seemed so cool and very up-to-date at the time. It was later then I realized that caring for a vape was expensive as hell. Not to mention that it was pointless as hell, plus it was really pointless puffing vapor in and out of your mouth.
4.) Nature Friendly
I tried eating healthy, I was very conscious of my water intakes and meat I was consuming. I didn’t feel “great” or stuff like that for eating clean and living clean, I just felt it was very tedious and boring. There was once where I bought succulents and somebody stole them. What is wrong with me and taking care of living things. I also did a whole litter of eco brick, which I did not get to finish.
I know that consistency isn’t one of my fortes, but maybe in the far future, I will get back to these things that once what interested me. I’m still so very much aware of what plastic is doing to our environment, I still love animals and plants, I still want to paint and express myself. It will be there when I want it, I just need to find better outlets to replace them in their stead for the meantime. Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk.
Unpopular Opinion
Artists, if you can contribute to a meme, fad, or other bandwagon within days, if not hours, of it coming into existence via well-made, detailed original pieces such as drawings, 3D models, and even animations, you can finish someone’s commission on time, and in fact should probably give priority to the works for which you’re being paid a lot of money.

Austin bombing suspect dies after detonating explosive as police close in
New York: A suspect in a wave of bombing attacks in Texas capital city of Austin killed himself inside his car with an explosive device on Wednesday as authorities closed in on him, police said.
Since the bombings started on March 2, investigators hunted for clues, calling the attacks the work of a “serial bomber” who kept changing his tactics. The bombings killed two people and left Austin terrorized with fear for 19 days, CNN reported.
The police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) tracked the suspect, a 24-year-old white male to a hotel parking lot in Round Rock, Texas, north of Austin, where they found him inside his vehicle, said Interim Austin Police chief, Brian Manley.
As police waited for tactical units to arrive before engaging the suspect, he left the hotel in the vehicle. SWAT approached the vehicle and the suspect detonated a bomb, killing himself and injuring a SWAT member.
Investigators had broadened their efforts after a package exploded at a FedEx sorting centre near San Antonio on Tuesday and a second unexploded bomb was discovered the same day at another FedEx facility near Austin.
The two packages were connected to previous bombings that left two people dead. FedEx said the person who sent the package that exploded also shipped the second one that was turned over to law enforcement officials.
The first explosion in early March killed Anthony Stephan House, 39, when it detonated at his home. Ten days later, another explosion killed Draylen Mason, a college-bound 17-year-old known for his passion for music.
Hours after Mason was killed, another explosion seriously injured Esperanza Herrera, a 75-year-old woman visiting her elderly mother’s house.
On Sunday, two more men were injured just hours after police made a plea for the bomber to come forward to speak to authorities.
A possible explosion reported on Tuesday night at a Goodwill store in Austin turned out to be unrelated. In that incident, an employee was injured by two “artillery simulators” in a donation box, said Austin’s assistant police chief.
President Donald Trump had said “sick people” carried out the blasts.

E-Cigarettes & Lung Health
Sometimes, I struggle to fathom the motives behind certain organisations. I truly do. Here we have a respectable organisation in the American Lung Association saying that e-cigarettes are a “new” tobacco product that have still largely unknown health effects. Then there’s a link to this page, which I wouldn’t click on if I were you; you’ll probably get asked to donate to them like the American Cancer Society (quick tip, don’t).
So what, according to the ALA are e-cigarettes?
E-cigarettes, including e-pens, e-pipes, e-hookah and e-cigars, are known collectively as electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). According to the FDA, e-cigarettes are devices that allow users to inhale an aerosol (vapor) containing nicotine or other substances.
Unlike traditional cigarettes, e-cigarettes generally are battery-operated and use a heating element to heat e-liquid from a refillable cartridge, releasing a chemical-filled aerosol.
In just two short paragraphs they have completely missed the point. They say “releasing a chemical-filled aerosol” like it is actually a bad thing, deodorant does the same thing albeit without the heating aspect, as does a multitude of other aerosol based products but you don’t hear them kicking up a stink about those now do you?
The main component of e-cigarettes is the e-liquid contained in cartridges. To create an e-liquid, nicotine is extracted from tobacco and mixed with a base (usually propylene glycol), and may also include flavorings, colorings and other chemicals.
The “main component”, unless I missed vaping 101 wouldn’t the atomiser be considered the “main component”? Anyway, moving on. Yes nicotine is extracted from Nicotiana tabacum simply because it has the highest concentration and is (relatively) easy to cultivate. The other constituents of e-liquid are usually a glycerol, most notably vegetable glycerin, propylene glycol and various flavourings. Some do contain colourings, which frankly are not needed. At all. Any liquid that is artificially coloured should be treated with caution as it adds other factors that, frankly we don’t know much about.
As for the number of products, well there’s a lot brands and plenty of flavours but to be honest the majority of juice makers are reasonably responsible, there’s a few outliers of course as there are in pretty much any industry, but again where’s the outcry for those?
It does seem that the ALA are ignoring the fact that e-cigarettes in general have been under investigation for a number of years already and have been subjected to an extensive review of 198 studies. Are these folks completely missing the point of research, or are they simply not bothering to look at anything that could actually prove them wrong?
As anyone with an ounce of sense will tell you: the dose makes the poison. The key factor that is being blatantly ignored by the ALA here is the quantities, each one that has been detected has been at substantially lower levels than tobacco smoking. Despite “other chemicals” being detected there is little to no evidence that, in the quantities detected these chemicals pose a significant biological risk to the user or bystanders. Which makes this next statement from the ALA completely redundant:
As noted by Fergus Mason, the fact that something could cause cancer does not necessarily mean it can cause cancer. You can say that they have similar effects as things that cause cancer – and some things that don’t – but you can not definitively say they cause cancer. That is bad science at best, and at worst thoroughly misleading to the general public.
This is the same “study” that has been thoroughly debunked by respectable scientists that actually knows how e-cigarettes work. Of course, the ALA thinks that these findings are “alarming” and as a result:
Next, they talk about poisonings, but don’t actually provide any context, nor do they provide any statistics on interventions for said poisonings. For an organisation that values evidence you would think that they would provide such context no?
As public spaces increasingly become smokefree, anecdotal reports show some people are using e-cigarettes indoors and in smokefree public spaces, including bars, restaurants and on public transportation.
“Anecdotal reports” – so it’s not OK for us to make claims as actual users, but it’s fine and dandy when they do it.
Many e-cigarette companies market their product as a tool to help smokers quit. However, the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research has not approved any e-cigarette as a safe or effective method to help smokers quit.
Yet the very same FDA that approves varenicline which has some known, very bad side effects.
The U.S. Public Health Service has found that the seven therapies approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in combination with individual, group or phone cessation counseling are the most effective way to help smokers quit. Until and unless the FDA approves a specific electronic nicotine delivery system or e-cigarette as safe and effective for use as a tobacco cessation aid, the Lung Association does not support using them for cessation, nor does it support any direct or implied claims that e-cigarettes help smokers quit.
Brings to mind a recent post about quitting, not to mention the recent e-Voke shenanigans being given a medicines authorisation which means, in the eyes of the UK MHRA there is now a licensed medicalised e-cig (which will likely never see the light of day) which could in theory be provided as a “safe and effective” device “for use as a tobacco cessation aid”. I’m beginning to see a pattern here.
What have we learned today kids?
One thought on “E-Cigarettes & Lung Health
1. I’ve heard them speak in every single city, county, or state legislative hearing I’ve gone it, about 15 of them. Their web site is tame compared to a lot of the lies they spout in person.

The agrarian history of Britain begins not with the earliest written documents but with the archaeological evidence marking the advent of the first agriculturalists from the European continent before 3000BC. The foundations of the farming community, which was encountered by the Romans and the subsequent Germanic settlers, were laid by stone-using peoples growing cereal crops and domesticating animals, and the later development of metal technologies enabled these peasant communities to intensify their exploitation of the natural environment. This volume was originally published in two parts, the first edited by Stuart Piggott and the second by H. P. R. Finberg. Part II was actually published in 1972, with the first following in 1981. The volume surveys, for the whole of Britain, this evolution of the man-made landscape over the period of some three millennia before the Roman conquest, utilising in particular the surviving evidence in the British countryside, unique in Europe, for the agrarian pattern of prehistoric settlement.

Agricultural producers are in trouble in many parts of the world. It is not unusual to see images of dairy producers throwing milk into the drain, or agricultural producers unloading trucks with potatoes or tomatoes on the road, in protest.
Only a few days ago, Spanish agricultural producers demonstrated in Madrid to demand better prices for their products. Some carried banners that said something like “without the countryside, the city does not eat.” The title of this blog was taken from one of these banners.
In Mexico, poultry producers have been struggling because of low live chicken sales prices for several months, due to chicken oversupply, caused by high imports, in addition to high productivity. Merely as speculation, this could, perhaps, lead some companies to close down.
Market forces decide, and that seems good to me, such as the case of the United States, where, by the way, there has also been a decrease in the price of chicken, due to excess production and heavier birds. But the United States produces everything: soybeans, corn, genetics, technology. In countries dependent on input imports, fragility is greater, as well as for those producers that are not enormous. Is that it?
There are excesses by intermediaries, retailers who choke producers, imports to force prices down, restrictions to import what is not produced in the country. And surely there are more things. In these cases, there must be limits, when competition is uneven with those that produce.
What is surprising is that governments focus on controls on the agricultural industry, which greatly affect their efficiency, and do not control what is necessary to feed their people, and incidentally provide jobs. Without production in the countryside, the city does not eat. The citizens do not eat. And they make them more dependent on external fluctuations.
What do you think?

Fastest Route To Influential Mastery
0 replies
Do you want to create more influence and sell more of your own products, coaching, and services?
This post is going to be a straight to the point juicy post created to help you do just that.
So if you currently sell your own products, coaching, masterminds, retreats, and packages...
Then this is exactly for you.
I recommend you take notes, and take action on this post as you read through it.
Let's face it, it's 2016 and most people have become NUMB to the typical marketing pitches - things like "Opt in here for your FREE course" 'FREE X-Day Bootcamp' 'Free Strategy Session Call' and so forth.
Most smart consumers and marketers know they're being sold to.
And because there is so much noise happening in their daily life, most force themselves to just block out the noise...
But how does that leave room for you to step in and make more sales despite the opposition?
People in this day and age are annoyed and frustrated with sales pitch after sales pitch.
They want something that they can relate to, and something that allows them to see the light down the tunnel of what this product or service will do for them.
By focusing your attention on that perspective alone, the rest of this post is not even necessary - but I'll press forward.
So most marketers what they do is put together a 15 - 20 minute webinar, or they use a template based salesletter and then start pushing people to it.
After that, they link directly to a strategy session and hope that people will someday buy from them...
This is a form of "Push" style marketing. It's very aggressive, hard-nosed, and normally ONLY works when you're able to do volumes of mass marketing.
Most people online looking to sell things use this type of marketing and crash and burn quite often.
Funny thing is that most of the guys who use this exact type of marketing are the one's who consider themselves high ticket coaches... yet don't know a thing about what they're doing...
Those people who push their offers and such on you aren't really High Ticket guys... and that's the reason why they don't sell very many spaces in their programs.
And then on the flip side, there are the real guys who know their stuff and practice what they preach...
The deal real guys who sell boatloads of copies of their programs, courses, coaching, and products.
For the purpose of this post - let's call this 'Influential Mastery'
This is the process of making people do something which they did not intend to originally do using their own will power.
This is real power, and masters of influence know that most of the people who buy high ticket offers will typically buy for 5 reasons.
They want access to you directly, or maybe they want access to your network.
Think of this almost like they're paying you for your resources, which could be time, network, personal contacts, and so forth
Most people care about the attention being on them, and being perceived in a certain way.
Because of these beliefs they'll pay any price to be perceived in the best way possible by others.
Think of the "Keeping Up With The Jones's" Mentality
They want to be a part of a community of people where they can network and gain alliances.
Think of Greek Fraternities, or business networking groups.
All of the people are joining something bigger than themselves because they see something in that community that will benefit them long term.
There are some people who associate themselves with being the best, paying the most, eating at the most exclusive restaurants, and so forth.
These are the people who walk into a clothing store, and immediately look to purchase the most expensive pair of shoes.
They identify themselves as luxury, affluent, top tier, and will always pay top dollar without blinking.
This one should have been at the head of the list as it's the most common reason why people buy higher priced products, courses, and coaching.
People want instant results. We live in a microwave society where people will pay you any price you ask if you can provide the sure fire solution for them.
Now let's shift to mastering your influence, and the direct steps to take so you can start selling more of your own products, services, and high ticket offers.
The prospect is never going to pay you because you have a 6 week program, or you'll teach the latest power strategy, or you provide the perfect closing script.
The truth is, they could care less about your 6 weeks, or perfect script...
But when you change the offer to being completely about how their income will transform from 2K/mo - 30K/mo in those 6 weeks, or how they'll be able to close 10 - 20 additional high ticket sales per week.
Does that make sense?
Rethink about the last few lines a few times and it'll start to open bigger thoughts in your mind.
The key is what can the prospect achieve? What is the desired outcome that you can realistically and scientifically help him or her accomplish via your OFFER?
So what you do is make the offer so clear that the prospect can see what their life will look like once they've crossed the finish line and completed your program.
Allow them to taste it, allow them to smell it, allow them to see it, and hear it.
Make the outcome for your client so crystal clear and so exciting that they feel like they are already living in it.
Here's the thing...
You can pitch program after program and run webinar after webinar...
But none of it will work unless you can help your prospect see the exciting transformation clearly.
So how to do this in the simplest way possible?
Here's an example.
Would someone pay $5000 to learn how to set up a Facebook ad campaign?
I would never pay that much to learn something that I can do a basic search on YouTube, or even in Google Search.
And most people in their right minds would think the same.
However if that offer was more specific and transformation based like this...
"How To Book 5 - 10 High Level Strategy Calls Per Day Via Laser Targeted Facebook Advertising"
In regards to the second case, you and most people would whip out their credit card and pay because you know exactly what transformation you're going to get right away.
Yes, both of these offers talked about Facebook ads...
But here's the kicker -
One of the offers was super general and based on the title wouldn't have a chance to sell for more than $2,000...
But the other program was very transformation based, and clearly lets you SEE how your life is going to be different with 5 - 10 high level strategy calls per day.
This thing goes deep, and all you need to do is clearly point out what are those transformational outcomes that your prospect will experience.
I recommend writing them down as they will be the highlights of your program.
An example could be something like - How To Charge $10K - $100K Per Client And Attract 5 New High Level Corporate Clients Per Day.
You get the jist of it.
This is one of the biggest missing pieces that most marketers miss out on.
By implementing this one simple strategy you'll have a much better ability to gain influential mastery in your marketplace and be the one that your clients will literally want to throw money at.
For now this should be enough to get you started with getting more of your products to sell, and even influencing people offline and in your real everyday life.
If you have any questions drop them in the comments below.
Peace for now.
Michael "Overdeliver" Baptiste
P.S. This is just the start, but by shifting the focus of your offer to the outcome and transformation of your offer - you'll be able to gain influential mastery, and sell more of your own products, courses, coaching, and packages with far less effort. I'll share some more awesome strategies in my next post.

What is a Teppy / pocket wifi?
A Teppy – also known as a pocket wifi, MiFi, wireless dongle, global, mobile hotspot – works similarly to your wireless router at home. When turned on, it creates a wireless hotspot which anyone in the vicinity can connect to, assuming they have the password.
But, unlike your wireless router at home, Teppy is small, portable (it fits in your pocket), doesn’t require any setup, cables or installation, and works seamlessly over the world. Simply turn on and connect!
This means you can travel the world with your smartphone, laptop, tablet, game consoles etc., knowing that you can securely and reliably connect all of your devices to the internet, whenever you want.
How does Teppy actually connect worldwide?
Non-technical answer: Imagine a little gnome lived inside your phone, and every time you traveled abroad it would swap your SIM card for you, so that you’re always connect to local networks, at local rates. This is basically what’s going on inside your Teppy.
Technical answer: Teppy uses patented virtual SIM technology to allow seamless connectivity all over the world. When you power Teppy on, it will automatically figure out what country it’s in, and choose the best network operator for you, via a bank of SIM cards it can access in the cloud. It will then connect to the data network of that operator. All this stuff happens discreetly in the background, so you never have to fuss with it.
What devices can connect to my Teppy?
Teppy works with any WiFi-enabled device, such as laptops (e.g. Windows & Mac), smartphones (e.g. iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone) tablets (e.g. iPad, Samsung Galaxy, Kindle) and anything else that can connect to WiFi (e.g. game consoles).
How do I use my Teppy?
To connect to your Teppy, first power it on, then locate your Teppy’s unique network name (SSID) and password. Now find your Teppy’s network name in the WiFi list of your smartphone or other device, and enter the password. That's it, you will now be connected to the internet. The below video shows how easy it really is!
Does Teppy work with carrier-locked devices?
Yes, because Teppy uses wireless internet, it works even with carrier-locked devices!
How many devices can I connect to Teppy?
You can connect up to five different devices to one Teppy. Please note that the connection speed will be shared among each device connected, so having five devices connected at the same time could result in noticeable speed slowdown.
How long does the battery last?
A Teppy with a fully charged battery will lasts at least 6 hours while connected to one device. The device can be charged via a USB or wall outlet (both cables included). You can also get an external battery pack if needed.
What is the download / upload speed?
Non-technical answer: The speed of your Teppy’s connection depends on coverage. Basically, the stronger the coverage, the faster and more reliable the speed. Adverse weather can also inhibit your connection speed. But, unless you’re in an area with really poor coverage, your speed should always be fast enough for ‘normal’ internetting, e.g. browsing the web, sending emails etc. If you want the fastest speeds possible, be sure to opt for the 4G upgrade.
Technical answer: You may have heard operators brag about their data speeds, e.g. 100 megabytes per second (Mbps) or even 1 gigabyte per second (Gbps) on 4G. While it sounds impressive, these are merely theoretic data speeds, i.e. conducted in a perfect environment where there is zero latency (network lag). This means that, unfortunately, when out in the real world, your speeds will never approach that speed (yet). For that reason, below we’ve outlined theoretical and real-world data speeds, so that you can know what to expect:
Theoretic data speeds: 100 Mbps when moving, e.g. in a car, 1 Gbps when standing still.
Real-world data speeds: 18.6 Mbps and upload speeds of 9.0 Mbps
Theoretic data speeds: 7.2 Mbps or 52 Mbps on 3G HSPA+
Real-world data speeds: 4.3 Mbps download and 1.1 Mbps upload
Can I make calls with Teppy?
Teppy only gives you an internet connection, it does not enable regular voice calls via your cellular network, however it does allow VoIP calls such as Skype, Viber, GoogleVoice etc.
You can also download the Tep+ app. With the Tep+ app, you can call and message anyone who has the app for free, and you can call and send SMS text messages to everyone else at the lowest possible rates.
Can I send text messages / multi-media messages with Teppy?
Teppy only gives you an internet connection, it does not enable regular SMS / MMS via your cellular network, however it does allow messaging via WhatsApp, Skype, Viber etc.
Does VoIP (e.g. Skype) work with Teppy?
Yes, VoIP will work. This includes Skype, iChat and Facetime.
Can I rent a Teppy instead of buying?
Absolutely! Head over here to rent a Teppy. You will also be given the option to buy your Teppy after renting.
Why should I buy a Teppy instead of renting it?
If you’re planning on traveling regularly, i.e. more than a couple times a year, then buying a Teppy is probably best for you. By owning your Teppy, you avoid having to deal with the hassle of delivery + return after each rental, while also getting access to cheaper connectivity rates.
Why should I buy with Travelwifi?
Travelwifi was one of the earliest entrants into the travel connectivity market – we recall a time when we only had one direct competitor outside of Asia! Since then, we’ve seen a flood of small, mostly regionally focused competitors, who have done their best to replicate our business model, with little innovation. You may even have noticed similar (or the same) wording or imagery on their websites, because indeed a few bad apples have been rather unabashed in copying from us! But that’s honestly ok, because we know that the most important aspects of our business are very difficult to copy.
The way that we differentiate ourselves is very simple: we are not a technology company, we are a service company. That’s why we offer more than just internet connectivity, and promise to continue innovating on the travel experience. That’s why we deliver worldwide and charge as little as humanly possible for delivery. That’s why we’ll give you $20 for every friend you refer to Tep. That’s why our in-house customer service team can be contacted 24/7 via a ridiculous number of channels. That’s why we created an app which allows you to call us for free. That’s why we live by our genuinely no-BS Satisfaction Guarantee. And that’s why we receive real positive reviews from real travelers every single day.
Thanks for putting your trust in us!

North America: Canada, Mexico, and United States.
Africa: Algeria, Angola, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritius, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Tunisia, and Zambia.
Network coverage
What is the coverage like?
How does coverage affect data speed?
In general, the better the signal in your area (indicated by more reception bars), the faster the connection speed should be.
If my cell phone can receive a signal, will Teppy as well?
Not necessarily – cell phones work off of different networks than your Teppy, meaning the two are not connecting to the same signal. This is because Teppy connects to data networks; e.g. 2G, 3G, LTE, 4G. On the other hand, cell phones connect to cellular networks.
Since cellular networks have been around a lot longer than data networks, coverage is better because there’s more infrastructure in place (i.e. cell towers), especially in rural areas. For this reason, you might be able to make calls in a rural area but still won’t be able to access the internet.
What if there is no coverage where I am?
If there is no coverage where you are, meaning your device cannot connect you to the internet, you will not be charged. Please try moving to a new location to see if you can catch a signal.

For users who purchased a device before 9th December 2019: You will automatically be charged for all usage on a weekly basis. Charges will be placed to the credit card used to place your order.
Alternatively, you can choose to be charged on a pre-paid basis. This means that, instead of being charged for all usage on a weekly basis, you can pre-pay for day-passes in advance, and, once you have none left, your device will not let you connect again until you’ve added more day-passes. You can then contact us to add more day-passes.
Data usage
Do I really get unlimited internet?
Yes, you get unlimited internet, which is never cut off.
Does my speed throttle at any point?
If you use more than 1GB in a day, your connection speed will get slowed to 256kbs. The connection speed will return to normal the next day.
What's the difference between a megabyte (MB) and a gigabyte (GB)?
MB and GB stand for megabyte and gigabyte, respectively. To get the GB value from a MB value, you need to divide the MB value by 1024, e.g. 1024MB = 1GB, 512MB = 0.5GB and 3072MB = 3GB.
How can I check my data usage?
The user guide included in your Tep pouch will include instructions on how to do so.
How much data does browsing websites use?
A standard web page is likely to download between 200-500KB of data. However, websites with a lot of media content (pictures or videos) such as Facebook may use substantially more data.
How much data do emails use?
A general rule of thumb is that 50MB is enough for 250 emails. However, any attachments can greatly sway this number. A simple text email will only be a few bytes.
How much data does Skype use?
A simple voice call via Skype will use around 4KB /second, while a video call will be 650KB /minute. However, this will vary according to coverage, as Skype will automatically increase or decrease call and video quality according to your internet speed. As a reference, a 15 minute audio call could use around 5MB, while a 15 minute video call could use around 10MB.
How much data does online gaming use?
Online gaming on a PC will use maximum 100MB /hour - usually around 70-80MB /hour. This is regardless of the type of game, because graphics do not factor into data consumption, meaning games like Minecraft and Call of Duty will use the same amount of data. However, one important aspect to consider is ping time – mobile data connectivity can be a lot slower than your home LAN network. For this reason, players may experience lag while playing simply because the internet speed is insufficient (e.g. when connected to 3G). For games where success depends on reacting quickly (shooters), a 3G connection may be too slow for the game to be playable. If you want to avoid latency issues, opt for the 4G upgrade!
What if I experience rapid data consumption?
There are a variety of factors that could contribute to rapid data usage.
The main way to use a lot of data quickly is by downloading or streaming audio / video (e.g. Spotify, Netflix, P2P); this can easily result in data usage of over 100MB in 15 minutes. For your reference, a standard-definition movie is usually around 700MB.
In addition, certain programs will consume data in the background without giving any indication of doing so. For example, system updates are usually downloaded and installed automatically without prompt. Backup software (such as iCloud, Dropbox and GoogleDrive) will continuously use data throughout the day - in fact most Mac / iOS devices come pre-configured with a backup feature always enabled. Other programs such as Skype and other chat clients will also contribute to data usage if kept on continuously. Finally, you should be wary of email clients such as Outlook and Entourage, which constantly download both emails and attachments.
Remember that any data usage is amplified when sharing the connection between multiple devices or people, meaning even "normal" activities such as web browsing will consume more data when multiple devices are connected at the same time. For that reason, we recommend you share the above information with anyone who will be using Teppy with you!
Satisfaction Guarantee
What is Tep's Satisfaction Guarantee?
We get it; while traveling, internet is crucial to keep up with work remotely, maintain contact with important people and prevent yourself from getting lost. It’s also pretty important to keep up with important sports developments, post on Instagram and stalk your friends online :-)
For that reason, our mission is to ensure that your experience with our service is uncompromising in enhancing your traveling.
If for whatever reason your travel plans change or are cancelled, if you want to amend your order, or you have any concerns about your Teppy - our promise is to address and resolve everything proactively, effectively and for free!

You need to hang the object within its graph, and call save changes. ObjectContext takes care of the rest.
Customer customer = myObjectContext.Single(c => c.Name == "Bob");
//new up an Order instance that has never been in the database.
Order order = GetOrderForCar();
//Add order to the Orders ObjectSet of a Customer
// This connects order to our ObjectContext.

See the current Perl documentation for shift.
shift - remove the first element of an array, and return it
shift ARRAY
Shifts the first value of the array off and returns it, shortening the array by 1 and moving everything down. If there are no elements in the array, returns the undefined value. If ARRAY is omitted, shifts the @_ array within the lexical scope of subroutines and formats, and the @ARGV array at file scopes or within the lexical scopes established by the eval '', BEGIN {}, END {}, and INIT {} constructs. See also unshift(), push(), and pop(). Shift() and unshift() do the same thing to the left end of an array that pop() and push() do to the right end.

By Rabbi David Etengoff
Dedicated to the sacred memories of my mother, Miriam Tovah bat Aharon Hakohen, father-in-law, Levi ben Yitzhak, sister-in-law, Ruchama Rivka Sondra bat Yechiel, sister, Shulamit bat Menachem, Chaim Mordechai Hakohen ben Natan Yitzchak, Yehonatan Binyamin ben Mordechai Meir Halevi, Avraham Yechezkel ben Yaakov Halevy, HaRav Yosef Shemuel ben HaRav Reuven Aharon, David ben Elazar Yehoshua, the refuah shlaimah of Devorah bat Chana and Yitzhak Akiva ben Malka, and the safety of our brothers and sisters in Israel and around the world.
Sefer Bereishit contains the narratives of a number of larger-than-life individuals whose values and behaviors guide us until this very moment. In broad terms, it is the story of Adam and Eve, Noah, the Avot (Patriarchs), the Emaihot (Matriarchs) and the first generation of Jacob’s children. In particular, our parasha portrays the “torch being passed to a new generation,” namely, from the Avot (Jacob) to Joseph. Moreover, from Parashat Vayeshev onward, the Torah relates to us Joseph’s trials and tribulations, and his ultimate ascendancy to the post of Viceroy of Egypt.
Joseph’s story is always read in juxtaposition to Hanukkah. This, of course, is not mere happenstance. Instead, deep connections obtain between Joseph’s challenges and those faced by the Maccabees. My rebbe and mentor, Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik zatzal (1903-1993), known widely as “the Rav,” formulated this thought in the following manner:
There is meaning and symbolism to every detail of the Jewish calendar. The mere fact that Hanukkah always falls on either or both of the two Sabbaths devoted to the reading of the Joseph story, Vayeshev and Miketz, bears witness that there is a link between the events surrounding Joseph’s sale into slavery and the events leading to Hanukkah; the Joseph story contains elements of the Maccabee’s dramatic struggle with the Hellenistic tyrant of Syria. (This, and all quotes, are from Days of Deliverance: Essays on Purim and Hanukkah, Chapter Nine, “Joseph and Hanukkah,” pages 155-166, Eli D. Clark, Joel B. Wolowelsky and Reuven Ziegler editors, underlining my own)
The Rav notes that Joseph’s overall task was similar in kind to that of his father Jacob, since Joseph, like his father, “had to prove that Abraham’s covenant could be practiced outside the Promised Land, that the moral laws are not contingent upon geography and chronology.” According to Rav Soloveitchik, however, there were two essential differences between the tasks that confronted Jacob and Joseph. First, Jacob “had to prove that the Torah is realizable in poverty and oppression,” whereas “Joseph’s mission was to demonstrate that enormous success, unlimited riches, admiration, prominence, and power are not in conflict with a saintly covenantal life.” Second, Jacob lived a life of spiritual and religious heroism in the midst of a backward pastoral society, and under the hegemony of Laban. In contrast, Joseph “demonstrated his heroic action in the most advanced civilization of antiquity, Egypt.”
A careful reading of the Joseph narrative reveals it is replete with high drama that is second to none. As the Rav highlights, it is a story of carrying forth the banner of kedushah (holiness) under the most trying of circumstances and of “sacrificial action, heroic decisions, and courageous plans.” Upon due reflection, these were precisely the tasks undertaken by the Maccabees, as portrayed by our Sages in the Al Hanissim prayer for Hanukkah:
At this juncture, the Rav asks a question that is fundamental to understanding the true role of the Maccabees and their relationship to Joseph as his spiritual heirs:
How did the Almighty use the Hasmoneans in order to save the covenantal community? Did He act as He acted in Egypt, where He just informed Moses what He had in store for them? Or did He require of the Hasmoneans total involvement – sacrificial action, heroic decisions, and courageous plans – as He demanded from Joseph?
Rav Soloveitchik’s powerful response informs our understanding of the Joseph-Hanukkah nexus as never before:
The Hasmoneans seized the initiative; G-d willed them to defend the sanctuary, to guard the honor of the Jewish women, the pride of the people and the grandeur of the Torah. They fought like lions, selflessly and with unqualified devotion. Of course, G-d defeated the enemy after man did his part. The Hasmoneans were confronted by the same destiny as Joseph, the destiny of suffering. It is a great and heroic destiny, but a very difficult one.
In many ways, the stories of Joseph and the Maccabees serve as a blueprint for living in the pre-Messianic era, whether in Medinat Yisrael or the Diaspora, when we, too, are called upon “to guard…the pride of our people and the grandeur of the Torah.” With Hashem’s help and our fervent devotion, may we ever have the strength and vision to do so. V’chane yihi ratzon.
Shabbat Shalom

John Lennon
Imagine - The Ultimate Collection
Dec 05, 2018 Web Exclusive Bookmark and Share
Find It At: AMAZON
Holding a mirror to today's tumult and a way forward, this reissue of John Lennon's 1971 album Imagine arrives at a pertinent time. As stated in the accompanying book: "It's an invitation to political activism in the pursuit of peace, but also to opening our hearts and our lives to one another."
The box set of four CDs, two audio Blu-rays, and a book with interviews and photos is revelatory, reminding us how revolutionary Lennon was. It's all there in Disc One's opening track "Imagine" which chokes you up immediately. "Crippled Inside" follows with a litany of disingenuous ways of being: "You can shine your shoes and wear a suit" or "You can go to church and sing a hymn," all honky tonk-like before the corker: "One thing you can't hide/Is when you're crippled inside."
In the fake news age "Gimme Some Truth"-his swipe at "neurotic psychotic pigheaded politicians"is biting and satisfying. Equally cutting is "How Do You Sleep?" about Paul McCartney. It's followed immediately with "How?" and the lyrics: "How can I go forward/when I don't know which way I'm facing?" Was Lennon already feeling remorse? Answers are in the box.
There are touching ballads to Yoko Ono but more crucialit sheds light on her importance to his evolution as an artist, songwriter, and humanitarian. "Imagine" was inspired by Ono's book Grapefruit. He concedes here: "I know she helped on a lot of the lyrics but I wasn't man enough to let her have credit for it." The song was co-credited to her in 2017.

5 Translation Budgeting Mistakes You Need to Avoid
October 12, 2021
How much should you realistically budget for translation?
There are various common mistakes you can make with translation budgeting. These can lead to you overbudgeting or underbudgeting for your content translation. Neither is advisable.
If you overbudget for translations, you can end up spending more than you need to on specific translation services. By depleting your translation budget unnecessarily, you miss opportunities to create more, higher-quality localized content.
If you underbudget for translations, you will end up searching for the extra budget to pay for it or being forced to select translation services that aren’t fit for purpose.
When you understand the potential mistakes you could make, you can prepare to avoid them.
When you budget correctly, you ensure that you get the most from your translation budget.
An unhelpful question to ask when budgeting for translation
“Where can I find cheap, fixed-cost translations?”
This is a rather common question from global companies. If you’re concerned about spending too much on translations, it’s understandable that you might consider looking for services with fixed, low-cost prices.
All of us prefer clear prices when we are trying to source new services. As humans, we are averse to uncertainty and risk. Going with translation services that blatantly display their “cost per word” on their website or provide simple cost calculators feels like it has less risk…
… but, really, it has more risk.
The problem is that fixed, low-cost translation services hide a multitude of sins.
Managing translations and localizing content is a complicated process. As a result, various factors influence how much you ultimately need to budget to complete a particular localization project. If you want your localized content to truly achieve your global goals, you need to be more strategic about how you budget for translation services.
And that includes avoiding common mistakes.
5 translation budgeting mistakes you need to avoid
The reason companies often make budgeting mistakes is entirely understandable — there is a lot of bad and missing advice out there!
Sometimes, it can seem like a huge portion of the translation industry is set up to mislead companies about the factors that are important when budgeting. However, with a little bit of knowledge, you can ensure you don’t fall into these common traps.
Here are 5 common translation budgeting mistakes you need to avoid…
1. Fixating on cost per word
The most common figure you will see when sourcing translations is the “cost per word” for a particular language pair (a “pair” being to translate from one language to another). Lower-end translation services often quote this figure on their website.
It’s tempting to fixate on the cost per word in your budgeting. You assume that you only need to multiply the cost per word by your total number of words to calculate the total cost of translation.
This is a bad way to budget for translation.
The problem with this approach is that it neglects all of the other factors that will influence the true cost to localize your content.
Sometimes, the quoted cost per word figure will be overinflated, meaning you could achieve much more with your budget than your calculations suggest. Other times, the quoted figure is unrealistically low. You end up being charged much more than you had budgeted for.
Of course, your budget will certainly be influenced by the cost per word for each of your language pairs. But, it is only one factor among several.
2. Using free translation cost calculators
A related mistake is to rely on the simple translation cost calculators provided on the websites of some translation providers.
These oversimplified calculators can be tempting. They appear to promise a clear, no-nonsense figure for the cost of translation services.
In practice, they are usually worse than unhelpful.
The problem with such calculators is that they cannot incorporate all the subtleties of budgeting for translation. They are almost always based on the cost per word and their prices are overinflated to account for this.
There are many more extra savings you can make in your localization that won’t be reflected in such calculators.
Such extra savings include:
• Improving source content consistency so you only need to translate it once.
• Removing expensive human touches from the process by automating.
• Reducing the engineering work need to process translations.
To make these savings, you need a knowledgeable global content strategist to look over your project. They can help you to identify specific savings for your unique situation.
3. Forgetting engineering costs
One factor that many people forget when budgeting for translation is the associated engineering cost.
Who will carry out all the extra engineering required to handle the translations?
Will the translation provider cover the extra engineering? Will you need to hire a third party?
Or will your team do all the extra engineering? If so, how will that impact all the other work they do? And how much will that lost productivity ultimately cost you?
These are the sort of questions that you need to be asking yourself when you are budgeting for translations. There are always associated engineering costs with translation. If you don’t include these in your budget, those costs will likely come back to bite you later on.
4. Not addressing translation as a revenue driver
Are you looking at your translation budget in the wrong way? Many global companies are. A very common budgeting mistake that people make is to view translation as a fixed cost.
This can lead companies into a vicious cycle…
They try to reduce the “fixed cost” of translation ➡ this reduces translation quality and effectiveness ➡ so the translated content works badly in their international markets ➡ so they assume translation isn’t worth the amount they’re spending on it ➡ and so they try to find even more ways to reduce that cost.
It’s much more effective to view translation as a revenue driver.
This leads your company into the virtuous cycle of…
Translation drives your revenue in international markets ➡ so you look for the most efficient way to keep increasing that revenue ➡ which involves choosing strategic, high-quality translation services ➡ so the translated content works well in your international markets ➡ and so your revenue continues to increase.
5. Translating the wrong things
What is the purpose of creating an accurate translation budget?
Surely, we create budgets so we can find out how much we need to spend to grow our business internationally?
Regrettably, companies often waste significant portions of their translation budget because they are not translating the right content in the first place.
It doesn’t matter how much or how little you spend on translation if your translated content doesn’t help you achieve your global growth goals. This is why it’s so important to include global content strategy as part of your translation budget. You can only get a clear picture of your budgeting needs if you know what you are trying to achieve with your content.
How to get the most from your translation budget
How do you avoid these common mistakes?
How can you ensure that you get as much as possible from your translation budget?
When working with our clients, we find that we can make the most savings for them when we don’t focus primarily on translation. Instead, we go further back in their process by looking at tooling, content creation, hand-offs, and other specific factors.
By doing this, we help them to:
• Streamline their processes.
• Increase the efficiency.
• Reduce waste in their content creation.
Improving your upstream processes is where the real cost savings can be made!
You can make similar changes to your own content workflow. But, it can sometimes be hard to get an objective view of your situation when you are so close to it.
It’s often helpful to talk with a knowledgeable partner about your translation project and your available budget. They will help you to identify which translation services you really need to achieve your global goals. They can also help you to budget for your strategic goals, rather than simply budgeting for translation services.
Talk to one of our global content strategists and they’ll be happy to help. To book a call, just enter some details of your project here.

Travel : Korea : Sokcho
by Jacqui
Whatever the sort of journeying you prefer, travel around South Korea is accessible and so rewarding. Every time I take even a day trip beyond Seoul’s city limits, I wonder why I don’t do it more often. If you aren’t the type to plan, travel groups are the way to go. My style of travel involves little research and a lot of flexibility. I like to show up and see what happens.
Midweek before a long weekend at the end of May, we decided to go away for certain. I unearthed an outdated Lonely Planet Guide left behind by a former teacher, pressed for time and eager to escape. I only wanted a quick description of a few spots we could reach by bus. The rest we’d find on our own.
We chose a destination closest to two of Korea’s most famous tourist attractions on slightly false assumptions. I imagined a quaint fishing village on a desolate beach, though nowhere in LP did I read about such a place. Sokcho is a port city with a population close to 90,000, and during the summer, the beaches are packed with tourists. A lot of people visit Sokcho on their way to hike Seoraksan. Not us. We wanted catharsis from a different source. Say, the kind that requires as much exertion as a walk from our room to dinner.
We had 36 hours to spend. This is what we did ate.
We met at the East Seoul Bus Terminal on a cool and hazy morning, thirty minutes early, indifferent to the coastal rainy weather forecast. Something about a gritty, ugly bus station shouts, “Freedom!” with more audacity than an airport ever could. Our driver didn’t waste any time. We left at 9:30 sharp, and as he gunned it down the expressway, he made liberal use of his horn and wove around cars like a desperado in a high-speed chase. I leaned against the seat and swore under my breath, calling up images of foamy water, glassy oysters, weathered fishing boats, an illuminated lighthouse. No one else seemed bothered by our dear driver’s style, of course. What the hell, I thought. I slid out of my seatbelt and began to feel the rush of liberty that only a bus driving straight out of town can deliver.
As promised, we pulled into Sokcho’s bus station four hours later. Hungry, eager, and without a plan, we picked up a map from the station’s tourist office and chose the direction that would lead us to water. Red and blue tents lined the wall of the closest port. Ajumas chopped live squid with agility and served it raw. Men fished standing and cast the starfish aside that they pulled up from the end of their lines. Ecologically harmful, they grumbled when we asked why. People moved slower, used pay phones, and smiled outright. Cars didn’t honk. Cars yielded. To pedestrians, it should be noted. This was no village, but the vibe here was distinctly different.
We were hungry, but raw squid on an empty stomach wasn’t going to cut it, so we walked back in the direction we’d come to a restaurant on the corner of a noisy intersection. A chalkboard menu promised makgeolli and pajeon, classic Korean fare on a rainy day. It wasn’t raining yet, but the clouds looked filled to the brim. Two men were sitting inside, and one of them was wearing an apron. Bingo.
The potato pancakes had crackling edges, tender centers, and a hot pepper dipping sauce red as blood and weighted with pepper flakes. They weren’t heavy like a lot of potato pancakes can be, and we took small bites in a desperate attempt to make them last longer. The makgeolli was cold and smooth and just astringent enough.
Then something happened that’s never happened before. The owner saw me writing, which I do often enough when I’m out, but I never get any attention for it, and this is usually the point. When he found out I was writing about his food, he went straight back to the kitchen without another word. Soon after, he emerged with a plate of cooked snails and vegetables dressed liberally with a cold but incendiary sauce called golbaengi muchim, a popular plate to share while drinking beer or soju. He was proud of his recipe, and for good reason. Canned snails are usually used inland, but he had the luxury and proximity of using fresh. To be sure, fresh snail is the ticket. The sweet, sour, fiery sauce set my mouth aflame, but I wouldn’t stop eating. It was deliciously addictive, and if he was gracious enough to give us a plate of food on the house, the least we could do was to lick it clean. I’ve got a soft spot for independent restaurants like his, especially when it’s evident that the owner cares deeply about the food he or she serves. If it were closer, I’d try to convince Kathryn to make it a part of our ritual. He gave us more than enough, and he probably would have spent the whole afternoon suggesting places to go and things to see had we asked. But we didn’t. We wanted more spontaneous meals, even if they weren’t as good as this.
That night, we ate twice more. Hoedeopbap, or bibimbap with raw fish, came with tiny sharp bones for what, I wondered. Texture? Extra calcium? Bones so tiny you have to feel them to get rid of them, if you’re not going to swallow them, and feel them you will, poking the inside of your cheeks and between your gums like an assault from an amateur dentist. It wasn’t all bad, though. Once home, I flossed diligently for a whole week.
No trip to a new town would be complete without a visit to its market, in my book. Jungang Market is right off the main drag through town, and the impressive array of dried fish and squid was something to see. Sokcho is also famous for its spicy and sweet style of a coveted Korean fried chicken called dakkanjung, and this is where you’ll find it. People travel to three specific cities in Korea best known for this chicken and wait for hours in line for a box of their own. We had to try it, but while we waited, our appetites waned. The line practically snaked its way through the open prep kitchen, and so we watched, intently. First the chickens were chopped to small pieces, bone-in, and battered. A runner carried the chickens to the fry station, his pink rubber gloves and the front of his shirt covered in wet floury paste, and another guy dropped them into the oil. One by one, he cooked the chickens until the batter turned crispy. A man stood below the fry station and waited for a green plastic basket to fill with each individual order of fried chicken, which he then tossed swiftly in a wok with syrupy, ginger-spiked sauce in front of his anticipative customers. A girl stood silently next to him with foil-lined boxes, and when each box was full, she tossed in a half-hearted fistful of sesame seeds over the top, closed the lid, and handed it over in an act of repetition. The people who kept these dakkanjung operations running worked hard and looked tired. When you’re churning out between four and five hundred orders on a weekday, the operation has to run predictably. It was an assembly line of grunt work, and not for the squeamish. As I watched, I kept thinking, “This is way too much chicken under one roof, and we’re going to throw half of ours away.” The whole side of the market was lined with shops selling the same thing in excessive quantities. I was conflicted between walking away out of morality and following through out of curiosity. In the end, we kept waiting until finally, the girl with the boxes slid one into our hands, reluctant as they were.
We sat on a bench and ate with our fingers, licking them clean once we were full. The first piece was delicious, but every piece after was cloyingly sweet. One order could feed four to six people. We were only two. But we’d gotten ourselves into this mess and we were going to get ourselves out of it. Fatefully, a stranger approached us with his friends and wanted to know what was in our box. He took a little convincing, but it wasn’t long before that chicken changed from our hands to his. There we were, attempting to swap our feelings of guilt with benevolence by giving away our leftovers. It was better, this way, though. And why are we so shy to share food with strangers, anyway? It’s the easiest, most grounding, and certainly one of the most appealing ice breakers I’ve ever come to know.
We took a taxi back to the beach, where the temperature was at least ten degrees cooler. Bright lights from squid boats bobbed against a black sky. Couples burrowed under blankets and umbrellas to shield their bodies from the wind. Fireworks lit up the surf and popped to the beat of breaking waves. A drunk girl held a sparkler while she stumbled around, cackling, finally sitting down hard like a clumsy baby learning to walk. Groups of friends sat on the sand and shot soju with samgyeopsal. No matter the circumstances, people in Korea will always find a way to cook meat over a fire. It’s brilliant.
The next day we took a recuperative walk along Haeoreumgil to Daepohang Port. After a quick scan of crab, squid, eel, and fish stalls, we doubled back to the beginning and walked slowly down the first row of tents with grilled shellfish, shrimp, and silver-skinned fish full of pink, glossy eggs named shishamo. When every stall is stocked with identical product, the pressure to make the right choice is big. It isn’t about the product at that point. It’s about the sales pitch and the spirit behind the delivery. We liked the no-bullshit attitude of the lady at the very last stall. She was rough in character but smooth when it counted, the type of personality whose smile you had to work for. When Chris asked her if she might throw in two extra shrimp for the same price of our place, she shot him a look that said, “You’ve got some nerve, pretty boy. But since you asked nicely, I’ll give you what you want.”
She cracked the pen shell we’d chosen in half, snipped up the meat, stirred in chopped onion, peppers, and a smooth, burnt sienna-colored sauce, and set it atop a charcoal fire that was next to our table. When the sauce was bubbling, she added shreds of cheese that melted into the mix. She grilled the scallops away from our table, but I watched her as she worked. After several seconds on the heat, they opened their bivalve shells slightly, clinging to the top shell furthest from the heat. With metal tongs, she pried apart the two shells, stacking the empty ones aside and leaving the meat to grill open-faced. When they were finished, she brought them on a plate beside whole grilled shrimp.
We toasted cold beer to our last meal in Sokcho and de-headed and peeled the shrimp. I took a leery bite of scallop. She’d cooked the entire mollusk, wasting nothing, and I didn’t know what to expect. Most Western restaurants serve only the round, opulent, deliciously wobbly part called the abductor muscle, and so that’s how we’ve come to know and adore scallops. But this was unreal, the way it was cooked wholly to tender perfection, and it reminded me how much there is to learn about food and the people behind everything we eat. Had I told her that elsewhere, people discard most of this generous thing, I’m not sure she would have believed me. Maybe if we’d had a few more days in Sokcho, we would have explored further inland away from the beach. Or maybe not. Maybe we would have spent the next few days at a table in this woman’s stall. We’d caught just a small glimpse of the city’s livelihood in the short span of 36 hours. But for us, it was enough.

Steps to Take following a Pedestrian Accident in Cherry Hill
The first thing that anybody should do if they have been involved in a pedestrian accident is to get appropriate medical care. That is the number one priority whether or not the individual is the operator of the vehicle or a witness or a friend of the person hurt. The first thing a person should do is call 9-1-1.
Following medical treatment and a police report, it is then important that they consult with an experienced pedestrian injury attorney as soon as possible. A knowledgeable lawyer could help you understand the steps to take following a pedestrian accident in Cherry Hill to recover evidence and get the information of any witnesses who may be able to help strengthen an injury claim later on.
Common Fact Patterns
Many times, pedestrian are injured at intersections where there may or may not be a crosswalk and/or there may or may not be a signal for pedestrians to proceed. Based on fact patterns, many of these cases involve intersectional accidents where people are crossing the road on foot.
Perhaps drivers are making right-hand turns and not paying attention when an individual is crossing a road, and unfortunately, the pedestrian is likely to suffer catastrophic injuries due to a collision. Other incidents involve distracted drivers not yielding the right of way to pedestrians who enter a crosswalk.
Contacting the Police
A crucial step people should take after being involved in a Cherry Hill pedestrian accident is calling the police. It is very important for an individual to speak to the police, if possible, so that the police understand exactly what happened. That way, evidence can start being preserved, and witnesses can be located who can provide more information to help show who was responsible for the pedestrian’s injuries.
Following up with a Doctor
After being injured in a pedestrian accident in Cherry Hill, it is also critical to follow up with a medical professional and follow their advice. In many cases, people receive injuries that they did not realize they had until days, weeks, or months after the incident, because they were in shock initially at the accident scene or had other priorities. Other injuries may have taken precedent and sometimes, those minor injuries turned out to be much worse.
The most important step someone can take after being involved in a pedestrian accident is to get the right medical care and follow their doctor’s advice. This is a critical thing that an individual must do after being harmed in a pedestrian accident in our area.
Collecting Information
If somebody has been involved in a pedestrian accident and they are able to collect the driver’s information, they should. If possible, they should take a picture of the person’s driver’s license and the vehicle involved in the accident, as well as the location of where the vehicle landed after the collision.
This information should be collected immediately if the injured person is physically able to do so following a pedestrian accident in Cherry Hill. They should take pictures of the area where the incident occurred and document any physical damage in the area, whether it is a vehicle or other sort of property in the area.
If the driver who caused the pedestrian accident flees the scene, all the pedestrian can do when the police get there is tell them everything they know about what happened and what they observed. They can hope that there are other witnesses and/or cameras in the area to help prove who was responsible for the incident.
An injured pedestrian should also try to obtain the names of any witnesses who may be in the area and make a record at some point of the time of day, the weather conditions, and any other information that may be necessary for the future to help prove responsibility for the incident.

Microsoft’s “intellectual properties”…
less than 1 minute read
Here’s an interesting interview by Duncan McLeod (Financial Mail, 8 June 2007) with Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu founder, (not exclusively) about the recent deal by Microsoft and Linspire. It seams to be basically the same kind of “not-suing-each-other-for-infringement-of-unspecified-patents”-deal Microsoft made with Novell and Xandros. I can’t think of a good reason why any Linux distributor should agree to a deal like this…? Anyway, I’d like to quote a short part of this interview:
This basically sums it up pretty well, I guess.

According to Kepler, the planets follow an elliptical orbit, and the Sun is at the focus of the ellipse.
From the diagram above, the Sun is at one of the Foci, which means that the distance from the farthest point from Sun on the $x$-axis is $a + c = 94.56..... (1)$
By definition, eccentricity $e = \large\frac{c}{a} $$\rightarrow 0.017 = \large\frac{c}{a}$$ \rightarrow c = 0.017a$
Substituting in $(1)$, we get $1.017a = 94.56 \rightarrow a = 92.98$
$\Rightarrow c = 0.017a = 0.017 \times 92.98 = 1.58$.
Therefore the closest approach to the sun must be on the other side, closest to the focus, which is $92.98 - 1.58 = 91.4$ million miles.
