Why even call the Sherlock Holmes if it's so radically changed? Just do a new show with new characters.
I've heard people ask the same thing about Moffat's Sherlock, but it worked pretty well for that.
Christopher Nolan's and Christian Bale's Batman is radically different from William Dozier's and Adam West's Batman, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't have both been called Batman, because there are certain core elements to the character that are shared by both. Sam Raimi's Hercules had very little to do with the ancient Greeks' Herakles, but if they'd given him an unfamiliar name and been unable to draw on the myths (however piecemeal and revisionist their approach was), it wouldn't have had the same resonance. Human creativity has always worked this way, blending familiar ideas with novel approaches, exploring variations on familiar themes.
One could just as easily argue that there are a ton of shows about new characters already, so what would be special about just churning out another one? Blending the characters of Holmes and Watson with a modern and/or American setting is something new. All creativity is about blending existing elements in new ways, and taking an old story or character and putting it in a new context has always been a common and perfectly valid way of doing that. Creativity is a dialogue with the ideas of the past, a response to them, an expansion upon them -- not an avoidance of them.
Think of it like evolution. Every new species contains most of the DNA of its ancestors, just with a few key changes in content or expression. It's not a wholesale start from scratch, since that would be inefficient and get nowhere in the long run. It's building on the strengths of what came before and adding something new that takes it further. Related species can share a lot of DNA yet be adapted for widely different niches. So why can't a given character like Batman or Hercules or Holmes be allowed to evolve and speciate, to become a whole family of stories branching out in new directions, rather than being stuck in a single fossilized form forever while culture and creativity evolve ever outward around it?

} | 358 | Easy guitar theory: non-diatonic chords
Give your chord progressions colour and flair by introducing a handful of ‘out of key’ notes.
We’ve previously looked at diatonic chords, ie, chords belonging to a scale or key. As their name suggests, non-diatonic chords contain at least one note from outside of the key, and they perform a range of musical functions.
They can provide moments of colour - especially useful when using the major scale, which, after all, is used heavily in cheesy nursery rhyme melodies, so it needs a bit of flair.
They can also be used in sophisticated progressions that hint at other keys within a single piece and to make chord changes sound more striking than they might when using only diatonic chords.
Diatonic ‘in key’ chords
Before you get into non-diatonic chords, it’s worth taking a look at chords that do use notes from a key signature. Whatever the starting note, chords in a major scale follow this pattern: major, minor, minor, major, major, minor, diminished.
This simple progression uses four chords from the key of G major. As we’re only using notes from the scale, the chords sound safe and as if they naturally belong together.
Passing chords
Non-diatonic chords are often used as passing chords. In its most basic form this may simply be a chord that is one fret above or below a diatonic chord. This gives a temporary ‘wrong’ sound with an unexpected twist that’s quickly resolved when the next diatonic chord is heard.
We’ve added a non-diatonic C# chord to the previous example to connect the C and D chords. Switch between the audio tracks to hear how the C# changes the character of the music.
Other non-diatonic chord changes
Our final example shows some other ways to use non-diatonic chords. First, the C chord is followed by Cm (which contains a non-diatonic Eb note) for a Beatles-y vibe. Next we’ve used E (instead of the diatonic Em) to ‘pull’ more strongly towards the Am chord. The Ab7 is a jazzy substitution for a D7 chord (D7 would be diatonic: D F# A C).

The reason? As reported by Adweek's Tim Peterson, "Facebook has been internally allowing a select number of marketers to see their fans’ other affinities, such as their favorite brands, bands or TV shows." According to Peterson's sources, "the company has only been using [the tool] on a one-off basis with big-budget brands" and that representatives of preferred brand were only given access to the tool in a Facebook office.
Why the secrecy and security? It's quite obvious: in theory, Facebook's tool could allow these brands to gain key insights unavailable to their competitors, giving them an overall leg up on the social network. Additionally, the data provided could be combined with other data to enable favored brands the ability target their competitors and their fans on the social network.
Obviously, the operative phrase is in theory, but there's a much bigger issue here: Facebook is increasingly weaving a tangled web as it looks to grow revenue. Previously, the company had refused to give into marketer demands for bigger, bolder ads, sending GM packing in a highly-publicized huff. But following a disastrous public debut and growing skepticism over the company's financial prospects, Facebook's willingness to let favored brands into its offices so that they can peek at data not publicly made available suggest that Facebook may be buckling under marketer pressure.
A favor for a favor
Good news, right? Unfortunately, in playing favorites, Facebook is sending a clear message to marketers of all sizes: the world's largest social network is willing to trade favors. Not entirely satisfied with the data and metrics Facebook provides? If you're important enough (read: spend enough money, or look like you might spend a lot), Facebook might give you what you want. A reasonable deal, perhaps, if you can get it. But just remember: Facebook could be giving others, including your competitors, a better deal.
And therein lies the problem: if Facebook is to build a platform for reaching consumers that companies can trust, there's little to no room for the type of special access it's apparently giving.

Great article. It makes a good point about the ownership of Facebook pages. Pages are always going to be susceptible to marketers especially as Facebook are continuing to try an increase their monetization of the site.

At an early newspaper internship, I worked with a photographer who'd occasionally let me ride with him as he looked for feature art. On a slow news day, a photo of a someone painting a picket fence, or kids playing in a sprinkler could make the front page. Whenever he saw someone doing something - anything, really - he'd turn the car around and say, "What the Hell was that guy doing?," in this excited, amazed tone. The funny part was, it was usually some very small visual happening, but he was both surprised and excited at the possibility.
Yesterday morning, while sitting at my desk in the usual Adobe-inspired haze, I saw this photo, above, and said, "What the Hell is that?" It's also a very small visual happening - shadows on my office wall, but for as many days as I've sat at my desk, shadows have never appeared that way. It's a combination of a sun through trees, a window shade, old plastic window insulation (the lines), and who knows what else. Anyway, very long story short, I love how much depth there is in the image, and it reminds me of some kind of Japanese print.
Mostly, I'm happy at the thought of being unexpectedly surprised.

30: Diabetes Depression
October 7, 2014 at 5:00PM • 1 hour 9 minutes • Wiki Entry
This week we're talking about rectal mucus, a blotchy vagina, erotic fiction. If you've got an awkward Halloween story or a story about accidentally walking in on someone having sex, tell us in a voicemail at 323-456-3345 or send it to!
Show Notes & Links Presented by CacheFly
Awkward Situation of the Week: Darren encounters an old man in a restaurant who thinks he's the touching police.
This Week's Questions:
• Andrew asks, "I don't have an awkward situation but I do have an awkward question, specifically for Adam. Is there any way to boost my body's production of rectal mucus? I drink a lot of water and eat plenty of fiber, but sometimes those poops don't slide out as easily as they could. Is there an easy body hack for this?"
• Ronald (Voicemail) asks, "It sounds like you have a guy on your podcast who did the honey badger video on YouTube. Who was it?"
• Elise asks, "My boyfriend asks too many questions. It's not because he doesn't trust me or he's controlling, but he's naturally inquisitive or something. Like if I have a phone call he'll ask who it was and what we talked about. If I went to the grocery store he wants to know what I bought there. If I go to a movie he likes me to tell him about the movie. Not like just what I thought of it but like what happened. Sometimes he does this even if he's seen the movie before, because he likes hearing the story again. It's stuff like this and all the time. I feel like I should be flattered because he's *so* interested in me and what I do, but it feels like I'm dating a toddler sometimes. You know, "why why why why?" I don't even know what I want to happen. Like if I ask him to stop what if he doesn't ask me about anything ever again? But I think I'll lose it if he keeps doing it. I am a straight female, 22. My boyfriend is two years older than me."
• Thom asks, "I was about to go down on my girlfriend and I found a red blotch on her vagina so I just started fingering her instead, like it's what I meant to do. I thought she didn't notice but then she asked why I wasn't eating her out. First I said I wasn't in the mood but we've been together for a couple of years and she knows I love eating pussy so she didn't believe me. She starts asking me if something smells weird and coming up with all this stuff and so I just tell her I saw the blotch and I was worried if it might be an STD. She says that just happens sometimes when she's shaving down there. But she's still got a bush and the blotch is to the right of it. She's told me it's not an STD for sure. I don't know if I believe her and I want to get tested, but I'm afraid if I push for that she's going to think I don't trust her. Is there a way I can find out without her knowing?"
• Gerry asks, "How can I find a girl that's interested in writing erotic short fiction stories for me? I want to fall in love with a girl who would do that, but I don't know how to find her."

Sample Test Questions For CNA Exam
It’s worth finding and doing as much sample test questions as you can get your hands on before taking a CNA Exam, as they will help to give you a sense of what is involved in the exam and whether or not you are read for the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program (NNAAP) certification exam. The exam is administered by the American Red Cross.
Whether you are considering becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), or have already enrolled in CNA Training Classes, doing some sample test questions is a great way to help you prepare for whats to come.
CNA Certification Exam comprises of 2 parts, a written exam and a practical exam. The practical exam is an assesment of your skills, where the examiner will test your ability to perform specific tasks. The examiner will also be looking to see how confident you are, and how much attention to detail you pay to each situation you are presented with.
Doing a ‘mock test’ and some sample test questions can make a lot of difference to the outcome of the actual CNA exam, and the best way to pass an exam is to first know what you are doing, and secondly know why you are doing it. The more prepared you are, the more confident you will be in your understanding of the required practises. Having studied and learned the written material, you’ll be far more capable of passing the practical section.
Doing as much mock tests and sample questions as possible is highly recommended, as its one of the best ways to improve your chances of passing the test of the first attempt.
The first section of the CNA exam is the written examination, which comprises of 70 miltiple choice questions. 10 of these questions are what is called ‘pre-test’ questions, they are not scored and are only there to gain statistical information.
This is then followed by the oral exam, which comprises of 60 multiple choice questions, and 10 reading comprehension questions.
The second part of the exam is the Skills Evaluation test. You will be asked to perform 5 nurse’s aide skills (selected at random) which is rated by a nurse evaluator, in order to acheive NNAAP Certification you’ll need to successfully perform all 5 skills to the required level.

} | 1,054 | Nerello Mascalese of Mt. Etna
“[Nerello Mascalese] is to Marcello Mastroianni as John Wayne is to Cabernet.” Alberto Graci, Graci Winery, Passopisciaro, Sicily
The beating of the windshield wipers fought to keep up with the pummeling rain, and I could hardly see through the glass as I slowly inched my rented car along the deserted road at dusk. I saw a small arrow-shaped sign on the right side of the road and came to a complete stop a foot in front of it, trying to read between wiper strokes. I was almost sure that it said “Firriato,” and so I followed the arrow’s direction and turned on a long narrow road, drove through an open gate, and eventually climbed a steep natural stone drive up to a small village.
Etna DOC
My mission here is to explore the Etna DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) wine region and find out what was percolating on Mt. Etna, other than the still-active volcano.
I could see a courtyard and a ground-lit path on the other side, leading through vineyards to an elevated structure, glass walls proudly displaying the inside of a stream-lined tasting room begging for my approach. Comfortable in the warmth of the tasting room, I ordered a flight of their wines: Firriato’s Etna Bianco DOC, Etna Rosato DOC, and Etna Rosso DOC. It was my first tasting of the local wines, and I had waited to try them until I was actually on Mt. Etna.
I’ll skip right to my favorite part of the tasting: Etna Rosso DOC. The Etna DOC correlates to a region in the northeast of Sicily, a crescent-shaped area that wraps itself halfway around Mt. Etna. Etna Rosso consists of Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grapes indigenous to the area and often grown on vines 100-plus years old, vines miraculously saved from the Italian phylloxera of the late 1800s to which so many Italian vineyards fell victim.
Alberto Graci in the Vineyard
The small, round grapes with thick, almost black skins make unmistakable Burgundian-style wines often compared to Pinot Noir. On Etna, they are grown at high altitudes and cultivated with the albarello (“small tree”) training system to keep each vine’s grape yield minimal for maximum flavor expression.
One might assume that these vines’ roots would be exceptionally hearty to grow in the hardened lava of Mt. Etna, but the opposite is the case. The porous lava rock and soil make it easy for vines to penetrate. And vines grown in this lava earth give their grapes a definitive mineral flavor unique to volcanic regions.
Minerals, climate, and the Nerello grapes culminate in wine that has wine critics cheering. Three of the winemakers best utilizing the ancient vines and indigenous grapes of Etna DOC are Graci, Cantina Benanti, and Tenuta Delle Terre Nere.
Nerello Mascalese
At the Graci Winery in Passopisciaro, Sicily, I spent some time with the owner, Alberto Graci, walking his Contrada Arcuria vineyards and touring the old wine-making apparatus still on display but unused, at his newly modernized winery.
Graci is so enthusiastic about Mt. Etna indigenous grapes’ potential that he became the vice president of the Consorzio di Tutela dei Vini Etna that covers 300 hectares of Etna DOC. He shares challenges and new ideas with his fellow Consorzio members so that they can — as a group — produce higher-quality wines. He tends and nourishes this local association of Etna winemakers with the same sort of care that he heaps upon his grapes. And that care should bear fruit; Graci’s wines have won acclaim from the world’s top wine connoisseurs (93 points, The Wine Enthusiast, 2014).
The Nerellos growing together in the Graci vineyards
The Nerellos growing together in the Graci vineyards
During my visit, Graci described the Nerello Mascalese aptly when he laughingly quoted Piedmont winemaker Angelo Gaja, replacing Gaja’s “Nebbiolo” reference with “Nerello Mascalese”:
“Cabernet is to John Wayne as [Nerello Mascalese] is to Marcello Mastroianni. Cabernet has a strong personality, open, easily understood, and dominating. If Cabernet were a man, he would do his duty every night in the bedroom, but always in the same way. [Nerello Mascalese] would be the brooding, quiet man in the corner, harder to understand but infinitely more complex.”
While the Etna DOC fan focuses on the Marcello Mastroianni grape, most winemakers combine it with its cousin, the Nerello Cappuccio. Nerello Mascalese is the wine’s dominant partner since it must be at least 80 percent of the blend to qualify as Etna DOC. Wines made with Nerello Mascalese have a dark red fruit character with herbal and mineral notes. Full-bodied and sweet, Nerello Cappuccio adds a bright ruby color to the blend. The combination produces wine with structure and elegance, the hallmark of Etna DOC wines.
Nerello Cappuccio
But if Nerello Mascalese is the Marcello Mastroianni, the Nerello Cappuccio is his oft-overlooked understudy. Cantina Benanti owns most of the roughly 20 hectares of Nerello Capuccio in Sicily and is one of the wineries producing straight-up Nerello Cappuccio as well as straight-up Nerello Mascalese. Because Etna Rosso DOC requires a minimum of 80 percent Nerello Mascalese, Nerello Cappuccio is not Etna Rosso DOC, but Sicilia Rosso IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica).
Benanti Tasting in the Vineyard
Benanti Vineyard Tasting
If you visit the Benanti vineyards in Viagrande, Sicily, the first part of the wine tasting occurs at a wooden table set in the middle of the vineyards. The final tasting was presented inside the main house at a dining table filled with cheese, olives, honey, and charcuterie as a fantastic backdrop to the highly acclaimed wines.
And, let’s not forget about the vineyards. Throughout the Etna region, Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio grapes grow interspersed together in non-linear vineyards. This growing structure makes for breathtakingly beautiful terrain, like Benanti’s vineyard on an old Roman cemetery and Tenuta Delle Terre Nere’s untamed hillsides. Now when I think of Etna vineyards, what comes to mind is the Nerellos, with their little black grapes hanging like jewels from ancient, gnarled vines, growing in the shadow of a percolating volcano.
Tenuta Delle Terre Nere’s Etna Rosso DOC 2014 “Santo Spirito” $58 available at Backroom Wines, 1000 Main St., Napa, (707) 226-1378.
Benanti Il Monovitigno Nerello Cappuccio Sicilia IGT 2013, $33.99, available at Flatiron San Francisco, 2 New Montgomery St., San Francisco, (415) 780-1405.

} | 605 | Windows Performance Rating for Vista examined
Windows Vista will come with a benchmarking tool and a similar app will tell …
The latest Community Technology Preview version of Windows Vista contains a new feature aimed at helping the average Joe and his friendly Best Buy shopping assistant figure out what kind of horsepower is needed to run the new OS. The rating consists of an aggregate total rating on a scale from 1 to 5 and a number of sub-ratings on a scale yet to be specified, broken out by hardware categories like processor, memory, video card, and hard drive. reports, for instance, that they snagged sample ratings off a Pentium D 940 with 2GB of RAM at the IDF show floor, and got an overall rating of 3. The processor score was 5.6, and the memory rating 5.5. A Sony Vaio laptop found at the same trade show managed to score exactly those numbers, category by category, with an "unspecified" Intel chip and half the amount of memory. Hmm.
"The idea behind the Windows Performance Rating is to help average consumers easily understand their Windows Vista PC's overall performance, and to simplify the process of determining whether certain software applications will run smoothly based on their system components," said Microsoft in a statement.
I suppose you can't expect the average computer shopper to run relevant benchmarks on their own, and there is certainly something to be said for a standard benchie that could allow us to compare apples to apples every time. But don't expect numbers lifted off of showroom floors today to be comparable to those gleaned from final release versions of the software. Microsoft says that the rating system is still under development, and changes are to be expected.
Now, some people have concerns about the tool. Another article, for example, says that Microsoft can't win: either the ratings system will be static and all machines will score 5s or 10s across the board in a couple of years, or the evaluation process is continually updated, making your machine seem slower and slower over time. That's an easy one. According to Microsoft statements, the WPR tool is only meant to ensure that your box is good enough to run Vista, and as a way to show you what—if anything—needs to be upgraded. I certainly hope that a new computer in five years is good enough to run the OS of toda- ahem, of tomorrow, and that it blows the lid off every rating category by then. It seems like WPR comes with another feature: planned obsolescence.
That brings me to the companion tool for WPF: the Windows Upgrade Advisor. That's an app that will run under Windows XP, and presumably using a system akin to WPF, will tell you what parts of your current system need a kick in the pants before Vista can be expected to run well. A Microsoft spokesperson says that this tool is most likely to recommend upgrades to your graphics card or memory subsystem, because those are the most important and easiest parts to upgrade.
The notion that lots of recent machines will need new graphics doesn't meet with approval around the Orbiting HQ. Ken has pointed out that the minimum specs are likely to hover around 64MB of video memory and DX9 compatibility, and even below that level, you should be able to chug along comfortably, just with some of the eye candy turned off. That's how the fancy graphics in games have managed to degrade fairly gracefully for years, and we should expect nothing less from our operating systems.

} | 963 | The Mutual Communication Society
Notions of Identity in Decentralized Systems
In the early 1800’s in London, there was a group of shopkeepers — tailors, haberdashers, cobblers — who periodically convened at the British Coffee House in Charing Cross. Over their pints and their cups of tea, they would discuss their customers.
London at the time, as the capital of the British Empire, was exploding with activity. This dynamic was leading to unprecedented prosperity for some of London’s residents, but it was posing a new challenge for the tradesmen who came together in that damp coffee house.
A few decades prior, all business had been local. The tailor over in Mayfair, for example, would have been serving the same customers for years. He would have known and trusted his customers, meaning he could do advance work for them and extend them credit — core pieces of how his business operated. His customers, for their part, knew they would damage their reputations if they did not hold up their side of the deal.
As London grew to be the capital of global commerce, however, the tailor’s customer base expanded. Gradually he found he didn’t know all, or even many, of the people walking through his door. Knowing who to trust was becoming an issue.
And so this group of shopkeepers was not assembled just to gossip about their customers… they came together to share names and details and, in particular, tell each other who to watch out for. Who were the fraudsters, the sharpers, the swindlers? This group called themselves the Mutual Communication Society.
Credit: A Different Type of Double-Spend Problem
Merchants’ concerns around fraud will sound familiar to anyone who has read the Bitcoin whitepaper.
— Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin Whitepaper
Satoshi, in his design of bitcoin, is addressing a problem of credit. Prior to bitcoin, merchants transacting with customers over the internet had to extend credit, trusting that their customers were good for the money and would follow through in paying. Generally, merchants relied on a series of expensive and time-consuming hops through banks and intermediaries to manage their risk. “These costs and payment uncertainties can be avoided in person by using physical currency,” Satoshi says, “but no mechanism exists to make payments over a communications channel without a trusted party.”
The solution? Peer-to-peer electronic cash. This breakthrough represents perhaps the most important development in economics since cowry shells andrai stonesBitcoin enables us to make digital transactions without having to rely on credit. But, like cowry shells and rai stones, the system runs into some problems when we want to rely on credit.
Remember our friend the tailor. He was dealing with customers in person, but his ability to work on advance was central to his business. The merchants of the Mutual Communication Society speak to this reality: most economic and commercial activities rely on some notion credit.
Leverage, the borrowing that credit enables, is its own form of double-spending. Leverage is what exacerbated the 2008 financial crisis. But it is also what allows governments to borrow and fund their deficits, fueling economic growth. It lets us take out mortgages to buy our dream homes. It enables students to attend universities they otherwise couldn’t afford.
Credit is an integral part of any mature and functional economic system. So if cryptocurrency is digital cash, what does digital credit look like?
Pricing Risk
It’s important to remember that even outside the realm of cryptocurrency, our concepts of credit are always very messy.
Credit systems usually rely on attestations from a single authority, an oligopoly, or a web of trust.
If you want to extend a loan to me, you might check with my bank to see how much money I have and to learn about my historical patterns of earning and spending. In this case you would be relying on data attested by a single authority.
If you perform a formal credit check (in the United States), you will get a three digit number back from a small set of actors — namely Experian, Equifax, and Transunion. This oligopoly will use their data on me, aggregated across my various financial accounts, to score my creditworthiness. A similar system exists for corporations and countries which are rated by S&P, Fitch, and Moody’s.
Finally, you could take a web-of-trust approach. This would be akin to a Mutual Communication Society. You could ask friends of yours who have dealt with me in the past what they think. Have they loaned me money? Have I repaid them? Am I reliable?
No matter which of these approaches you take, however, you will still be taking on some risk when you make me that loan. To make the risk worth your while, you can ask me to pay interest. In other words, you can price the risk accordingly.
Credit is even more complicated in cryptocurrency systems. Because actors on most cryptocurrency networks can remain pseudonymous, information asymmetry is even higher than in conventional markets. In particular, this means that it is not so costly for bad actors to commit fraud. An exit scam occurs when a party takes out a loan and then takes the money and runs. In a pseudonymous system there are few reputational consequences, no deteriorating credit score. And for the lender there is no bankruptcy court, no recourse.
Does this make it impossible to price the risk of extending credit in a pseudonymous system? I would argue no. But in order to understand how there can reasonably be credit markets *~*on the blockchain*~* we will first need to dive into the topic of identity…

} | 226 | Oi Polloi Terra-ist Lyrics
Made a cess pit of the paradise that was ours by birth
They've raped and they've burned and they've plundered our world
Our banner of resistance will now be unfurled
We're nailing our colours right up to the mast
The sands of time are running out fast
To stop the nutters destroying our home
Kidnapped from our children from whom it's on loan
Enough is enough is enough of their greed
Mass eco-defence is what the earth needs
Terra-ist action all over the land
To stop the lunacy the rich have got planned
E.L.F. strike in the dead of night
See the bulldozers are burning bright
Construction area totally trashed
Earth-rape machinery utterly smashed
Some might say that we're too "extreme"
But all we want is air and water that's clean
And a green earth not a desert is what we need
Don't let them sacrifice it on their altar of greed
Rise up and conquer your fear
They can be stopped like Jose-Maria
Our world a toxic slag-heap they will make
So take whatever action you feel it's right to take
It's up to you it's up to me to make a stand
Our generation holds it's future in it's hands
Time to fight back let them do their worst
Green anarchy in action - put the earth first!

Understand and Treat Hypertension Before Too Late
Although cases of hypertension in the community is very high, many people do not realize he was this common killer diseases. Currently, an estimated 76% of all cases of hypertension in people who have not been diagnosed. This means that sufferers do not know that he was suffering from hypertension. Meanwhile, approximately 31.7% of hypertensive patients, only 0.4% of cases were adherent take medication regularly.
This was revealed in the annual scientific meeting of hypertension held Hypertension Association of Indonesia (Perhi) or The Indonesian Society of Hypertension (InasSH), in Jakarta, recently. The meeting was attended by more than 1,500 participants, consisting of general practitioners and specialists, which discussed issues surrounding hypertension, particularly on ways to control it. A number of international experts in the Asia Pacific region as a speaker.
Professor of Medicine in the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia (Faculty of medicine), Prof Jose Roesma said many residents are not aware of hypertension awareness due to low health check. Moreover, this disease does not show symptoms early, so it is ignored.
Compared to developed countries, although cases of hypertension is also high, the awareness of the health check and control of the disease is high. Of the 100 cases of hypertension, for example, according to Jose, nearly 40% of them did well control. While in Indonesia is still below 10%.
Ironically, medication non-compliance is generally determine the impact of hypertension, such as heart attacks. As a result, the death rate from hypertension in developed countries was far lower than developed countries with minimal conscious control.
“There are people with hypertension take medication only when symptoms appear or needs. Fact, hypertension is cause damage to other organs, such as chronic renal too, sufferers often do not obey any medicines,” he said.
Jose added that the factors that lead to non-compliance with hypertension medication, partly because of the many drugs that must be taken. In addition to blood pressure, other factors that cause local damage are diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity, and more. In addition to a lifetime of taking medication to control hypertension, patients also need to take medication to cure the local damage.
“In addition to the type, number of drugs taken was increased. Growing number taking the drug, the possibility of medication non-compliance is greater.’s Not simple. So, people should really know the impact of hypertension and noncompliance taking medication, and what to do . medicine for hypertension should be given according to need, the type of drug, and the time, “said Jose.
Can be controlled.
Specialist Internal Medicine, Kidney and Hypertension of the Faculty of Medicine, Prof. Suhardjono said, nearly 90% of hypertension due to genetic factors, or a family history of hypertension. However, this can be controlled by avoiding risk factors or triggers of hypertension.
In addition, the high prevalence of hypertension is closely related to lifestyle, stress levels, diet, especially the consumption of too much salt. Salt intake Indonesian society is still relatively high at 15 grams per day, exceeding the recommended limits, which is 6 grams, or about 1 teaspoon per day.
In this case, Suhardjono said, there is no necessity of the government to include the amount of salt in packaged foods that should be consumed by the public. In addition, the Indonesian cigarette consumption is also quite high, which is based on the Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) 2007 showed 23.7% of people aged 10 years and over spent an average of 12 cigarettes per day. While only 48.2% of population physical activity, and 93.6% less of fruits and vegetables. The third behavior is a risk factor for hypertension.
“Hypertension is one of the most common causes of death in the world. Hypertension is associated with various health problems, such as cognitive impairment, heart disease, and stroke. Disease is like the tip of the iceberg, because most people do not find the symptoms, but may also present symptoms very weight, especially if there has been organ involvement, “said Suhardjono.
He said the Global Mortality data, the death rate from hypertension to reach 7 million of the total 55.861 million deaths. In Indonesia alone, the prevalence of hypertension as a whole reached 31.7% (over 55 million), or 1 out of 3 people according to the 2007 National Riskesdas. Obtained from the survey data, especially in the population over the age of 55 years, more than 50% or 1 of 2 people suffering from hypertension.
Hypertension is not adequately treated, can lead to many complications, namely stroke, cardiovascular disorders, retinopathy, vascular disease, and cause kidney damage and death. Decline in renal function associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular complications and death. As is known, a trip cardiovascular disease and kidney disease in hypertensive runs parallel, and can be prevented with adequate blood pressure control, because if organ damage has occurred the death rate will increase.
Such Hypertension is not only associated with increased blood pressure, but there are many other factors that must be treated and controlled simultaneously. These factors include obesity, abnormal lipid metabolism, atherogenesis, left ventricular dysfunction, impaired insulin metabolism, blood clotting disorders, changes in renal function, neurohormonal dysfunction, and endothelial dysfunction.
“A patient with early-stage chronic kidney disease has the possibility of death from cardiovascular events 5-10 times compared to the final stages of kidney failure,” said Suhardjono anyway.
Therefore, according to Suhardjono, necessary precautions and specific strategies to address and prevent it. This strategy includes examination of risk factors in an individual filter normal, filter examination in individuals with risk factors and assessment of progression.
For those who have had kidney abnormalities, complications and treatment done at an advanced stage of renal replacement therapy preparations done. In general, for the prevention of kidney disease required renoprotektif strategy, which consists of lifestyle changes, tight control of blood pressure, control of genetic and nongenetic risk factors, as well as a healthy lifestyle.
Suhardjono explained, actually hypertensive blood pressure resulting from the organs, such as heart pumps and mechanisms of the kidneys remove water. Thus, tension is a measure of blood pressure also describe organ performance.
According to him, there are two types of hypertension;
1. Crisis hypertension, namely, the condition in which sudden weight thereby disrupting the target organs, including bleeding due to rupture of cerebral blood vessels and can cause heart failure.
2. Chronic hypertension, where blood pressure slowly higher, which causes the target organs such as the heart begins to thicken and swell, causing shortness of breath and heart failure, or blood vessels become narrow.

My Temperament
You would never guess that I attended two church services yesterday if you judged my evening behavior.
I was helping the kids clean up their room before bedtime and when I was putting one of Caleb's toys away in his closet, I noticed his shelf was falling apart. It is one of those cube wire type shelves that hold together with little clips-one can build them in various shapes to fit one's needs. This particular shelf has stayed together for quite sometime, which is why it surprised me to see it falling apart on the inside.
Thinking it would be a quick fix, I did not bother to remove the toys, but simply attempted to push it back together. After the fifth toy fell and crashed into lower shelves, I gave in and removed all of the items.
Each attempt at fixing it led to the same result-90% finished and then one piece would push together too hard and make the entire structure crumble to the floor. Of course, being made of metal, the sound of the shelves crashing together did nothing to help my spirit.
To know my temperament, you must know my dad. The big things might not stress him out, but the little, nitty-gritty things will drive him crazy. I have fond (yes, fond) memories of my dad losing his temper over a piece of machinery not working, over an escaped cow who was determined not to return to the barn but rather would wander down the road, or over a small project that would just not come together. I completely and totally get this from him.
Sure, I worry about the future for our kids and fret over financial dilemmas. But, the events that really make me lose my cool are situations such as this. Why would the shelf not stay together?
As I stubbornly kept rebuilding it, my surroundings became more annoying. It felt as though the pleasant breeze coming through the window stopped right before the closet, causing it to be quite hot. Caleb insisted on "helping," but considering his diaper was fresh with poop, it was difficult to appreciate his intentions. Abby decided right then to ask to go outside and get ice cream from the ice cream truck (those drivers always have the worst timing) and my response probably scared her from ever asking such a question. And, of course, my dear husband...who every now and then would check on me and ask what the heck I was doing.
It is a miracle he is still alive today.
I finally gave up, threw (yes, threw) the pieces back into the closet, along with Caleb's toys. It felt kind of good to fling each item in there with a flourish, but like any temper tantrum, I still had to clean it up the next day.
So, first thing this morning, I cleared everything out and bit by bit, it came back together. It is amazing how easily it came together when my head was clear and I had a fresh attitude.
I come back to the fact that I attended two church services just hours before my breakdown. How does that happen? I am such a sinner that my words of praise to my Savior turn to quite the opposite within moments. Why on earth does He love me and forgive me?

Ugh--I'm the same way! Being a mom is so hard. Pre-baby, you're totally cool with you are, and post-baby every little thing you do wrong weighs like a ton of bricks. The thing that gets me through is remembering some of the worst (yes, worst) things my parents did when I was a kid and thinking about how much they still loved me and I love them. Love will get you through the most difficult, humiliating, and shameful situations. And your children will someday understand that Mommy is only human, just like them--which will make you even more relatable and loveable. :-) | http://tjrosenfeldt.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-temperament.html | robots: classic

The Advantages Of Online Language Learning
It is always amazing how people learned to communicate through language differences.
My good friend told me a story of his parents who learned to love each other even not being able to communicate! Well, I only mean they could not communicate through a speaking language. His father could speak English, knew ancient Greek and Latin, and my friend’s mother spoke German, French, Hungarian, Farsi, Turkish and modern Greek, which is very different from the ancient Greek. But they learned to use the language of heart!
And all that took place during World War II, the hard war time. What an amazing example of understanding each other without words.
But I always wondered and tried to imagine the first people who created the first dictionaries. How they would understand the meaning of the words they had to put into another language, how they would find the explanations etc.
Since ancient times, the man has been studying languages. In fact, he had to, so that he was able to trade with foreign cities – the issues of economy and trade have always created the basis for all kinds of connections between states.
Today, we expand our looks on the world via communication in international communities online, where we get to know new people every day. Online chats and forums give many opportunities to find new friends and to socialize without having to leave our homes or offices. Learning online is becoming more and more popular, as well.
In our world today, we tend to communicate despite of any cultural and language differences. Thus, we learn about other countries, we travel a lot, and, between travel, if you have some free time (say, 1 or 2 hours a week), you can spend it on learning of a foreign language. Today, it’s becoming more and more convenient to communicate and learn with the help of high technologies, such as online communication chat rooms, web conference rooms or so-called virtual classrooms.
While studying a language in a virtual room with a foreign teacher, you can find it comfortable to connect to Internet and “jump” into a virtual classroom right from your own computer. No need to travel to the meeting – just a couple of clicks, and you are talking with your distant teacher, or rather an instructor – the expert who can assist you about any piece of knowledge,
Your online instructor can advise you about what to do and how during the lesson. Your teacher is usually the one who will do more than just telling about the grammar rules of the language, but also the one who will take your hand through the cultural peculiarities of the country which language you are studying. Sounds interesting? - then, contact Discover School team to ask what are available today.
Do not hesitate to ask questions about the language which you would like to study, and about the culture of the country which you are going to visit. Your online instructor will do everything possible to provide you complete information to answer your question.
And then you don't need to do anything but just a few clicks again – and your distant community of friends will welcome you on a different site in Internet. Online communication has almost replaced the real life communication to most of us, and is continuing to take more and more of our time every day.
Your online community of language learners is already waiting for you at Discover school of virtual education. Read about our and try it, if you are interested. Also, please check this website for more educational and communication events frequently - we update the information every week.

Thailand has become the first country in Asia to eliminate mother-to-child transmission of HIV and syphilis, the World Health Organisation (WHO) announced on Tuesday.
The milestone is another step in Thailand's aggressive campaign to reduce new cases of the Aids virus, but experts warn many other problems still exist - including a rising rate of new HIV infections among gay men and transgender people.
The number of babies contracting HIV dropped from more than 3,000 in the late 1990s to 86 in 2015, a figure that was validated to meet WHO's criteria for elimination - mother-to-child transmission rates of less than two per cent and fewer than 50 new infections in 100,000 births.
Cuba became the first country to reach the goal last year. Along with Thailand, Belarus eliminated the mother-to-child spread of HIV and syphilis, Armenia did for HIV and Moldova did for syphilis, the WHO announced on Tuesday.
Globally, 220,000 new cases of HIV were recorded in babies in 2014, and syphilis caused some 200,000 stillbirths and neonatal deaths in 2012.
"I do think that once Thailand has been able to do it, it's a motivation for other countries around the world and also for the public health community because one does see now that, yes, the world can be free of HIV," Poonam Khetrapal Singh, WHO's south-east Asia director, said, noting Thailand's HIV rate was once among the region's highest.

Thailand's success comes from strong prenatal care from large cities all the way to the poorest villages. Nearly all pregnant Thai women are screened for HIV, 95 per cent of those who test positive are treated to prevent transmission to their babies and almost 100 per cent of babies born to HIV-positive mothers are given antiretroviral drugs.
However, hundreds of thousands of migrant women, many of them working or seeking menial jobs in Thailand, are not included in the data. Many poor women from neighbouring Burma and Cambodia do not receive any prenatal care or HIV screening while in Thailand.
A 2010 Thai government report found that two to three times more migrant women were infected with HIV in certain areas of the country.
There are an estimated 2.7 million registered and undocumented male and female migrant workers in Thailand. They have limited access to the country's health care system, and many are reluctant to get tested or treated for HIV due to language barriers or out of fear they will lose their jobs or have negative interactions with police or other authority figures, according to UNAids.
Steve Mills, technical director at nonprofit FHI360's Asia-Pacific office in Bangkok, said this is an area Thailand needs to improve, along with focusing more on at-risk populations such as intravenous drug users and sex workers operating outside of brothels. Gay men and transgender people are of particular concern.
"With the evolution of the epidemic and people being on HIV treatment, it's meant that condom use is harder to get to a satisfactory level," he said, adding that gay men and transgender people are often harder to reach today because couples often meet through social networks instead of in bars, saunas or other public places where outreach workers once targeted them.
"We need to encourage people to get tested."
Last year, the World Bank published a study calling for more free anonymous testing and treatment among gay men. It said the rate of infection within Bangkok alone had jumped from an estimated 21 per cent in 2000 to 28 per cent in 2012.
Only one-fifth of those infected were receiving antiretroviral drugs, even though it's provided by the government without cost.
Thailand was hailed by the international community as a model for other countries after promoting 100 per cent condom use among sex workers in brothels in the 1990s, drastically reducing infection rates.
But Aids continues to kill. In 2014, an estimated 20,000 people died from the disease in Thailand, a rate that has remained steady for the past five years. An estimated 450,000 people are living with the virus in the country of 60 million. | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/07/thailand-becomes-first-country-in-asia-to-eliminate-mother-child/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-35

A city firefighter refused to respond to the Jan. 8 shooting spree that left six people dead and 13 wounded, the Arizona Daily Star reported, citing city memos.
The firefighter, Mark Ekstrum, quit the force two days later as management was considering possible disciplinary action against him, the Daily Star reported.

Fire Capt. Ben Williams wrote in a memo that when Ekstrum told him he would not go on the call, "he mentioned something about 'political bantering' and he did not want to be part of it," the newspaper reported.
After he was contacted by the Daily Star about the incident, Ekstrum said in a statement he was distraught about the shootings and had no disagreement with Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in the head and is recovering at a Houston medical facility. Ekstrum said he was "distracted" and doubted his ability to focus on an emergency call.
Ekstrum was part of a team trained to handle major medical emergencies. The unit was not part of the first group of emergency responders and was only dispatched to the scene about 90 minutes after the gunfire broke out, the newspaper reported.
The Daily Star obtained the city memos that detailed the incident via a public records request.
The newspaper reported that Williams wrote that Ekstrum "started to say something about how he had a much different political viewpoint than the rest of the crew and he was concerned."

Florida firefighters win coverage for cancer claims
On Behalf of | May 8, 2019 | Uncategorized |
For several years now, it’s been well-known that firefighters suffer from cancer at a much higher rate than the general population.
In fact, the 2016 release of a comprehensive study of over 30,000 firefighters who served in several large cities between 1950 and 2010 confirmed what many firefighters already knew from anecdotal evidence: Chemical exposure to toxic fumes released by burning materials could cause cancer.
The study, which was undertaken by the National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (NIOSH), found that firefighters are 9% more likely than other people to receive a cancer diagnosis and 14% more likely to die from that cancer. It even showed a direct correlation between the number of fire runs a firefighter made during his or her career and the greater likelihood of developing certain types of cancer, like leukemia. Yet, many firefighters around the nation have had to struggle to get their cancer treated as an on-the-job injury, which would entitle them to workers’ compensation benefits and medical care that’s desperately needed.
Finally, firefighters in Florida will see some relief. Governor Ron DeSantis signed a new law on May 3 that now allows firefighters to claim cancer as a work-related injury and get treatment without having to struggle to prove “by a preponderance of the evidence” that exposure to something specific led to their illness. The bill was signed despite heavy objections from the Florida League of Cities. The League said that the bill could place an unfair burden on residents by increasing property taxes.
Among other things, the new legislation provides firefighters with a $25,000 payment for out-of-pocket expenses, like travel for treatment and hotel accommodations for their caregivers when they’re in the hospital.
If you’ve been sickened due to your on-the-job exposure to chemicals or other toxic materials, it’s important to find out everything you can about your right to compensation. There may be more available than you realize. Get legal guidance today.

Talent Recommendations: Diffuse Magic, Energizing Elixir, Leg Sweep, Serenity (or Whirling Dragon Punch)
Focus on boss, kill spiders when called. Windwalker’s mobility will let you fly back and forth without much loss.
Make sure you get proper positioning for Necrotic Venom/Twisting Shadows positioning. You can use Diffuse Magic to stack Necrotic Venom on top of each other if you’re healthy enough and in range of healers.
Talent Recommendations: Basically the same
Although Wretched Ambush‘s damage can be reduced drastically with Dampen Harm, this is raid wide damage and usually AoE healing cooldowns are used on it. Therefore, you probably will get more out of Diffuse Magic, since that one allows you to cheese more of the player specific stuff.
You can put Transcendence up on the bridge before pull; this will make the transition that much smoother. A Windwalker using Transcendence into warlock portal gets to the platform way faster than someone who used a feather!
Talent Recommendations: Basically the same
Not much changes for you here; with Windwalker’s insane mobility, it won’t be hard to respect very strict Wretched Ambush timings; links are not that big of a burden either usually, although Windwalker hates downtime.
Cannot stress enough how much Transcendence helps in mythic. This is a very powerful spell, make the most out of it!
Talent Recommendations: Basically the same
Use Touch of Death instantly on pull, otherwise you won’t be able to cast it a second time phase one: she flies at 2:00.
Make sure you have Fists of Fury up for Skittering Spiderling spawns, but don’t use it before they are in position. It is indeed better to delay Fists of Fury by 10 seconds to get that big Fists of Fury on 4-5 targets, however this must be done properly. You can maximize Transfer the Power stacks for that.
If things go bad and some tanks are dying, feel free to use Provoke to peel a Skittering Spiderling away from the boss, stun it, use your defensives well and get it off the boss to kill it. Be careful if doing so, but Provoke is probably more useful here than on a boss swap mechanic. | http://www.walkingthewind.com/encounters/emerald-nightmare/elrenthe-renferal/ | robots: classic

} | 418 | Responding to your Partner’s Charged Feedback: A Compassionate Conversation Response Process
Your partner just shared something with you that felt charged. What next?
(This process is not an ‘always’ and for ‘everyone’. It was one I developed with a a few clients who were intentionally exploring how to listen empathically with each other. Forever grateful for the courageous couples who never stop inspiring me.)
Step #1 — Look: Shift Your Attention to Gratitude & to the way they are being with you.
1. Put your connection first. Let them know you see them first. Appreciate that your partner shared and name how you see them in this moment.
Example: Thank you. I appreciate that you shared so vulnerably. I appreciate how loving and courageous you are.
2. Share the Impact of hearing it.
That is really meaningful to hear from you. I want to keep learning from you. (apology may go here if supportive-).
Step #2 — Be curious about what is there (your own Monkey Mind might be chattering at you at this stage. Notice it and return to being willing.
3. Notice You: breath and also notice your own sensations and thoughts.
Notice your Partner: If they have more to add here let them do so.
-check for body language
-do they have more to share?
Step #3 — Tell the Truth: What did or did not actually happen in physical reality
Communicate the content you heard from them and Clarify what needs more understanding.
4. Share what you heard your partner say.
5. Check whether you acknowledged all the important parts.
Did I get it? Is there something important that I missed?
6. Partner has time to clarify or add (if needed)
(Possibly repeat step 4 and 5 if new information.)
Step #4— Share your Takeaways & Make a Clear Promise of Your Next Meaningful Step
7. What I’m learning/ getting from this is…
8. What is mine to do with this information Now and/or Next Time.. ?
What I’ll do now is… I’ll complete it by _____date.
OR: Here’s what I’m willing to try out if this kind of thing happens again. I’ll know I did it because _____
9. Check with your Partner: How would that be? How does that sound?
A few more optional questions here to consider:
10. Ask for Support: (from partner, from other resource, set alarm reminder… )
11. Is there a kind of celebration that could take place when it occurs well?
12. Is there anything else needed now? Later? Check with them.
Step #5 Close with Gratitude
13. Thank your partner for being in this process together. | https://alyssalynes.com/2021/02/13/responding-to-your-partners-charged-feedback-a-compassionate-conversation-response-process/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2021-49

} | 995 | Concrete Minerals Eyeshadow Swatches and Review
A while ago, I won a giveaway from Sparklecrack Central and between life getting ahead of her and us not being able to meet up at IMATS LA (there's always IMATS 2013 in 5 months!), it took a little while for her to send things my way. She was super generous with the prize and it happened to include these Concrete Minerals eyeshadows.
I've never tried Concrete Minerals before though I've heard great things about their products, especially their Electric Eye Primer. They have expanded their product line beyond mineral eyeshadows to matte eyeshadows and lip tints. I always like to see indie companies do more than just loose eyeshadows because I think it makes it feel like it means that they're always constantly innovating and expanding their business beyond eyeshadows. They're also a local company, located in Riverside about an hour away from me.
I got full size eyeshadows in Infinity and Wicked and supposedly a sample of Zealous. I say supposedly because I feel like my Zealous doesn't look and swatch like other peoples' swatches of Zealous. I'll explain more below
Product Info: The eyeshadows contain 1.5 grams and retail for $7.00.
Packaging: Unlike other indie companies, these eyeshadows are packed in 10 gram jars as opposed to 5 gram jars. Each had a sifter and seal though I'm not sure if they're shrink wrapped or not (I didn't receive them that way so I'm assuming they weren't).
Infinity: Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Chromium Oxide Green, Iron Oxide, Tin Oxide, Ultramarines, Boron Nitride
Wicked: Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxide, Tin Oxide, Ultramarines, Boron Nitride
Zealous: Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Chromium Oxide Green, Iron Oxide, Tin Oxide, Boron Nitride
In the first picture, the eyeshadows were swatched dry over Too Faced Shadow Insurance and in the second, swatched over Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. The pictures were taken in natural daylight.
Infinity: "Smooth aqua blue" When I saw the shade I did think of the Tiffany blue and they actually make a note of it in the listing that it's reminiscent of that shade. It's much more blue and less green and was a dream to apply.
Wicked: "Medium purple with aquamarine shift" The listing makes the color look quite red toned whereas I think it's more of a blue-toned purple, more of a smoky grape. I had some application problems with this because it seemed to want to fade as I was applying it more than the other shades. In order to get it to look that lavender in my swatch, I had to really pack it whereas when swept on like in the second picture, the darker base shines through so it looks more like a smoky grape. There is a slight aquamarine shift when applied dry but it needed a glitter fixative like Darling Girl Glitter Glue or Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy to show off the shift best.
Zealous: "Vibrant turquoise" I'll admit I'm a little confused whether I actually got Zealous or not. Other swatches seem to show a bright turquoise blue and while I see the turquoise shift, it's on top of a darker green base. Over Pixie Epoxy, the turquoise shift takes over so the green base is less prevalent but I still don't get that vibrant blue/turquoise I've been seeing all over the place. Considering that all the other swatches look the same and mine is the odd one out, I must conclude that everyone else is right and mine is a weird one. Ambiguity about the color aside, this applied really well without fading on me.
Formula-wise: I don't think I've used many indie eyeshadows before with Boron Nitride as a base and I was pleasantly surprised to see that I did like how it helped with the adhesion. While I did like Infinity and Zealous (?), Wicked was just okay to me. I have been eyeing Lolita for ages though and might just have to pick it up.
Website-wise: I think it's a very professional looking website with the categories and search bar on the left along with pictures on the front page directing you to the specific listings. If I did have to nitpick on something, I don't like that you have to hover over each category in the sidebar to see the different product listings because I instinctively click on the category which just causes it to refresh the page.
Overall thoughts: I like them enough to consider trying out a few of their other eyeshadows. I especially am thinking about their Electric Eye Primer. I think they used to have samples of the primer along with a Blogger Sample Pack but unfortunately it looks like they stopped offering that. I think it's especially intriguing that they have "Pro Matte" eyeshadows since loose matte eyeshadows can be difficult to work with.
Have you tried Concrete Minerals before? If so, what did you think of them and if not, what would you get?
Disclaimer: I won these eyeshadows through a giveaway. None of the links in this post are affiliate links and all opinions are honest and my own.
1. I have pretty much the entire CM line outside of 6 of the Pro Matte shadows and I really like them all. The Pro Mattes go on like soft butter! I agree that your Zealous looks different than mine and thought that was odd.
2. I love concrete minerals. I recently made my first purchase and swatched and tried the products. I like how vibrant their pigments are and I am also very intrigued by their pro matte line. Will definitely be buying more from them in the future.

} | 302 | more useless pinhole images.
so on my 4th day of pinhole working 11-5 in the dark room, i still have no decent images, me and Genea Bailey tried everything… got help from 3rd years to work out our F stops then use a light meter, but still no good results. My camera produces such contrasting, out of focus images, so we went to speak to Matt and came to the conclusion to start again, using cans. So as we ran to Wilkinsons and tried to drink a lot of fizzy, we made our cameras just in time for the dark room to shut. So lets hope tomorrow is the day…
But for now here are the rest of the failed images i have taken.
This was a 10 second exposure which has picked up bits but they are unclear and blurred.
No idea what this is meant to be… kind of cool though
You can kind of see the garden chairs in this image and tables, but not the people so it’s not relevant to the task at all.
Probably not even worth showing, but learn from your mistakes.
This image is defined at least, but because of the distance between the film and hole the contrast is insane. and you cannot see any detail of the building or the people on the streets
Bit of a failure of a day really, again, lets just hope tomorrow brings better things that i can actually hand in.

Crypto Currencies - a market with a golden future?
Why crypto currencies are a good possibility to make money.
October 13, 2019 - Reading time: 5 minutes
Crypto Currencies - a market with a golden future?
Legendary are the reports about the riches that some investors have accumulated with the help of crypto currencies. They started in the first hour and have now accumulated a yield in the four-digit range. In addition one hears again and again that in some countries gigantic server farms developed, in which Bitcoins are gained. What is it about these currencies and how can you earn money with them?
How do crypto currencies work?
The first crypto currency known worldwide was the Bitcoin. To this day, nobody knows who came up with the logic behind digital money.
What was new about Bitcoin was that it enabled payment transactions to be made anonymous using blockchain technology. This means that people can move gigantic amounts of money from A to B outside the banking system and nobody knows who is behind it.
The first users of Bitcoin were accordingly many criminals. But also many curious people and tech pioneers, as well as risk investors, who have now made incomprehensibly large profits.
Other crypto currencies function according to a similar principle, offering only the one or other characteristic which makes them special.
How can one earn money with crypto currencies?
Crypto currencies are now considered to be almost like any other currency. As a result, they can also be traded on the stock markets. There are platforms and trading places for this.
There are also lots of blogs and news sites that provide investors with crypto currency news.
As with any other economic good, prices are determined by supply and demand. The volatility of this market is relatively high. One reason for this is that the initial profits have attracted many imitators. This means that the money boosts are reaching the stock markets in waves. While in the beginning there were only a few gamblers, now regular funds are already investing in digital money.
Private investors can participate in trading by looking for an appropriate broker where trading in crypto currencies works. You can act as a day trader or invest long-term. Some also use automated trading software, such as Bitcoin Superstar. This tool should be suitable for automatically interpreting trends and signals and making the transactions on its own.
What opportunities does the market still offer today?
Some people say that the great days of crypto currencies are over. Supposedly it is saturated or overheated. Others say that Bitcoin and the others are only just beginning.
One cannot make completely clear statements here. Anonymous payments are an absolute nightmare for many governments around the world. Terrorists, drug cartels and other criminal elements can easily launder money and move millions with their help. It could therefore well be that one day countries such as the USA, China or the members of the EU will decide together to ban all crypto currencies.
On the other hand, there are also opinions that this is exactly what will not happen. Instead, governments are letting these things go and secretly trying to hack into the system. They secretly get a good overview of illegal payments and can then grab the criminals even more easily than ever before.
Whether the market is saturated or overheated, no one knows the exact answer. Many non-professionals also trade on the stock markets. With the crypto currencies it is rather humans, who have certain knowledge of stock exchange transactions. If, however, the press releases about massive price increases increase, then all those panic get, which are afraid to miss a trend. So it could be that a small boom will lead to small investors wanting to enter the market in droves at a stroke. Then funds are founded immediately and money is collected and then a big wave of capital comes into the markets. That would result in further price jumps to the top.
What is not yet completely foreseeable is the future of Libra. Facebook has announced that it wants to launch its own crypto currency. This will facilitate worldwide payment transactions and prevent currency fluctuations. However, the anonymity of Libra vis-à-vis the secret services should no longer be guaranteed. So it is not yet known what effects this will have, or whether Libra will even be realized.
As in any other market, there are opportunities and risks with crypto currencies. This must evaluate everyone for itself subjectively, information collect and then the decision make whether it is worthwhile itself to enter.
The latest news at the moment is, that China has forbidden to trade with Bitcoin within the country. But the large server farms will continue their work to generate the virtual money and to get a lot of it to the peopel´s republic.
All information without guarantee. This is not financial advice or other advice. I only give my subjective opinion on the subject.

} | 1,711 | A flash of fiction…
A couple of years ago I used to write regularly, a lot of it was fiction; some of it flash, most of it probably rubbish, but that didn’t matter. It was a daily habit, and I really enjoyed it. These days, I do still write every day, but it’s either my phd, or personal journalling… I’d like to get back into some occasional flash fiction writing, and creating some interactive fiction pieces… why not, eh?
Anyway, in the very few hours sleep that I got last night, I was reminded of a short story that I once wrote for a blog that no longer exists. I thought I would post it again here, to prompt myself that writing this little story felt good, and that I should do more of it. Here tis…
The Glass Changeroom
“It’s freezing Jane, why are you just wearing a t-shirt?”
I looked down, not realising until Mum mentioned it, that I was wearing only one layer of clothing. Certainly not enough for this cold winters day in Paris. The snow was falling softly, and collecting on our hair and in our eyelashes. Apart from the brittle, frozen cold, it was magical. The sun was trying hard to make an impact on the young day, but the cloud and smog cover dominated the atmosphere, allowing only minute beams of light through in an attempt to warm the air with it’s soft pastel glow.
As we walked on, I began to notice glimmers of illumination where the sun managed to find any object at all and make it sparkle momentarily; on the corner of the “M” on a Metropolitain sign, on the rusty handle of old weathered door leading into the unknown, on the lift-tab of crumpled drink can lying forlornly in the gutter, in a drop of water trembling on a chain-link fence pre-drip… Glimmers were abound, and it was pure beauty.
“Here’s a clothing shop Jane, c’mon, you need a jacket”
Awoken from my glimmer trance, and suddenly feeling the cold keenly, I walked in and surveyed the scene. White walls. A ceiling so high you could barely see it. Large, bright-white shiny floor tiles. Cold, hard, smooth and clinical. I felt as though I were in some sort of dream, but no, this was Paris, and I needed a jacket.
There were racks with clothing as far as the eye could see. The store seemed busy, but when I looked around, I couldn’t pinpoint anyone specific. People seemed to disappear whenever I focussed on them. It felt busy, but appeared empty.
I glanced over to the nearest rack and the clothing morphed from what you would normally expect, with a variety of colours, textures and styles, into a kind of clothing I have never seen before. It was a wrap of some kind with fasteners and strings for securing the fabric close to the body. It appeared to be some kind of all-in-one garment. The fabric was all colours, and yet when I looked at it more closely, it appeared transparent, with the subtlely and sparkle of gossamer. And in the middle of the garment, right at the centre of where the breastplate would be, appeared a large glassy window surrounded with a circular border of what seemed like liquid silver, swirling and gliding around the glass like a funnel of water spiralling down the drain.
I was enchanted.
I had never seen anything like this before. I immediately wanted to try it on. I took the garment instinctively towards the changerooms, despite their lack of signpost.
Up ahead were several small glass rooms. They were tiny, each with their own glass door, complete with glimmering translucent door handles. I tentatively opened the door and walked in, unsure of how I was to try this garment on in such a setting in front of everyone/no-one. I looked behind me, and couldn’t see anyone around, so I proceeded into my little glass changeroom, and latched the door behind me.
And that’s when the door and walls seemed to seal up and frost over, leaving a honey-glazed view of the shop beyond the glass. I knew that the busy people milling about could not see me, yet I could once again see them and their reactions to these unique garments.
I slipped off my boots, socks and jeans with haste. I wasn’t feeling cold anymore, and took the opportunity to slowly remove my t-shirt and underwear while I watched the show outside the changeroom. I felt so empowered standing there in my glass house, silently still and watching.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when I re-focussed on my garment, I noticed that the centre glass had become dilated, and darker, as if it was a pupil searching out the light. I removed it from the hanger, and searched for a way to wear it. No sooner than I held it up against me, the wraps and strings animated and wrapped around my body whippingly fast. The glass heart-eye fused with the entire surface area of my skin and radiated an incredible warmth right through to my bones. The feeling was so powerful that I felt as if I could fly, yet so overwhelming that I might spontaneously combust at any moment.
I remembered my family, and attempted to open the translucent door handle, but it disappeared, leaving only a honey-glazed glass wall that stretched out to my left and right as far as I could see. The warm swirling glass heart-eye seemed to pulse communicatively, indicating that I needed to find an alternative way of exit.
When I turned around, I saw that the back wall of the changeroom had disappeared. In it’s place was another entire clothing store, just for me. There were hundreds of racks, filled with what seemed to be add-ons to my bodysuit. I walked through, looking at some, touching others, all with great interest. But something kept pulling me forward through the store.
Despite seeing new and amazing apparatus for my bodysuit, I kept walking. The light was growing dimmer, and yet I could not see the back wall of my own private upgrade centre. I pressed on, knowing that I was looking for something, but I didn’t know what.
Cracks began to appear in the perfect shiny floor, and I noticed that some of them even had small seedlings sprouting out from below. The racks of mods became sparse, and were instead replaced with shrubbery, and then small trees. Underfoot became softer, and I realised I was walking on uneven gravelly soil.
I looked behind me, and way off in the distance was a tiny spot of bright white light. I kept pressing forward. There was something out there for me. Something I needed to see.
Squirrels darted off and in between the mossy trunks of enormous trees, and I sensed shadows out there, moving in the dark.
Suddenly my glass heart-eye stopped cold, and my heart, almost went with it.
I knew something was behind me. Very close.
I turned slowly.
And there he was. Standing there with eyes so familiar but somehow strange at the same time.
His left iris was brown, with dazzling flecks of hazel, but submerged in a pool of bloodshot. His right eye was a deep glossy black. His hair was dark, but with more grey than I remembered, and only covering half of his head. The other half was a molten lava coated skull. Swirling slowly like Jupiters 200-year storm. A gash on the side of his mouth led almost to his left ear and exposed most of his still white teeth. Blood dripped from his tear ducts and slid down the length of his nose before quivering on the tip as he took a step towards me. His outstretched hands, faced upwards. This was a new state for him.
I began to feel the cold wind rush around me, and realised that I was no longer clothed. I was alone, helpless, and naked in this dark forest. There was nothing I could do.
I froze. I was terrified and hypnotised by this fearsome creature and his steady gaze.
Our eyes connected, and for a split second, I saw his terror, reflecting back as my own. I saw his fear, mostly of himself. I saw his hunger, for me, for my flesh. His cold heart was beating so powerfully with the prospect of a meal, that I could hear it. I felt his hesitancy, as the feelings of his previous human condition lingered on the periphery of his mind. He wanted to think rationally, but he could only delay the inevitable for so long. He knew that he was going to kill me. It was just a matter of time.
We stood there in mutual trance for what seemed like hours, but was only seconds. His tattered and torn body and clothing trembling against the forces of his form.
A low rumbling growl behind me indicated another presence. Big feet padded gently towards me on the mossy ground as the grumbling grew more insistent. I wasn’t going to turn around this time. I didn’t want to know. I knew that I needed to get away. Fast.
Knowing that his time was up, in a blinding flash, his one remaining pupil constricted as he lunged forward for the imminent feast… while the beast behind leaped into the battlescene with beauty so raw and powerful. I shuddered at my awe knowing the beasts intention was to rip every living thing into the smallest of shreds.
But I was already gone, flying higher and higher through the trees in search of the light. I flew so fast and so long that I began to forget where I was. Where I had been.
And then I reached the light…
“C’mon Jane, it’s time to get up and get ready, we’re going to Disneyland. Don’t forget your jacket, it’s freezing today!”

} | 248 | Plagiarism Scandal Reveals: ESPN People Actually Write Down That Stuff They Say
In your glacial Thursday media column: ESPN plagiarism mini-scandal, proves that bloggers are not so smart about economics, Wired vs. Glenn Greenwald, and Judith Miller schadenfreude alert.
• ESPN anchor Will Selva has been suspended for plagiarizing a sports column from the OC Register and using it for his game highlights, which he said on the teevee. Don't they just make that stuff up as they go? No? Huh.
• has an interesting business model: publish the work of thousands of unpaid bloggers, and then own that work in full, and sell the rights to it as sees fit. Well, bloggers have never been accused of being astute businesspersons.
• This big new feud between Wired and Glenn Greenwald is a trivial internet catfight, featuring lots of screeching, and I haven't read all the stuff, but Wired is probably wrong. Or, as Greenwald writes: "That's how these disputes often work by design: the party whose conduct is in question (here, Wired) attacks the critic in order to create the impression that it's all just some sort of screeching personality feud devoid of substance. That, in turn, causes some bystanders to cheer for whichever side they already like and boo the side they already dislike, as though it's some sort of entertaining wrestling match, while everyone else dismisses it all as some sort of trivial Internet catfight not worth sorting out."
• Judith Miller is now writing for NewsMax. Haha. That is all. | http://gawker.com/5721413/plagiarism-scandal-reveals-espn-people-actually-write-down-that-stuff-they-say?rel=author | robots: classic

} | 185 | The PirateBay Hacks your CPU to mine Bitcoin
Torrent websites cannot really rely on legitimate ad networks in order to generate revenue. This is due to the fact that torrent websites are flooded with pirated content. Either way, The Piratebay have to pay for their expenses such as server costs, website design etc. Even more so due to the fact that they are a “file hosting” website they will definitely have more expenses than the average website. Let alone the most popular torrenting site.
Apparently, they are hijacking user’s CPUs in order to mine a digital cryptocurrency. Visitors have discovered Javascript coding on the website which revealed that a cryptocurrency miner was embedded within the website. Visitors were able to confirm this when noticing spiked CPU usage when on certain pages within the website.
The Pirate Bay confirmed to Torrentfreak that it was testing a feature for a short while as a new method of generating income.
Is this okay?
This is essentially hijacking user’s computer resources due to the fact that users are not aware of this happening. | https://gadgetsmalta.com/news/the-piratebay-hacks-your-cpu-to-mine-bitcoin/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-40

} | 233 | Title: How well can TCP infer network state? Authors: Dhiman Barman and Ibrahim Matta Date: May 16, 2003 Abstract: The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) has been the protocol of choice for many Internet applications requiring reliable connections. The design of TCP has been challenged by the extension of connections over wireless links. We ask a fundamental question: {\em What is the basic predictive power of TCP of network state, including wireless error conditions?} The goal is to improve or readily exploit this predictive power to enable TCP (or variants) to perform well in generalized network settings. To that end, we use Maximum Likelihood Ratio tests to evaluate TCP as a detector/estimator. We quantify how well network state can be estimated, given network response such as distributions of packet delays or TCP throughput that are conditioned on the type of packet loss. Using our model-based approach and extensive simulations, we demonstrate that congestion-induced losses and losses due to wireless transmission errors produce sufficiently different statistics upon which an efficient detector can be built; distributions of network loads can provide effective means for estimating packet loss type; and packet delay is a better signal of network state than short-term throughput. We demonstrate how estimation accuracy is influenced by different proportions of congestion versus wireless losses and penalties on incorrect estimation. Keywords: TCP; Congestion Control; Error Control; Binary Hypothesis Testing; Maximum Likelihood Ratio Test; Gaussian Distribution; Wireless Links; Simulation. | http://www.cs.bu.edu/techreports/abstracts/2003-011 | robots: classic

Review Text Andrew Sandoval is a well-documented sunshine pop addict, and there's no arguing he's learned a lot from all those pretty-on-the-surface, sad-on-the-inside songs he's been doting on throughout his career in music. Sandoval has learned to write songs that mimic the style of his heroes with impressive accuracy, and his fifth album, From Me to You, is a modest marvel of 21st century pop. Recorded mostly utilizing acoustic instruments and without trap drums, From Me to You's 11 songs are full of beautifully layered harmonies, chiming guitars, subtle keyboard lines, and drop-dead-beautiful melodies that would do Michael Brown or Emitt Rhodes proud. The liner notes state that this material was all recorded live in the studio, which would make the seamless perfection of these performances all the more remarkable. However, while Sandoval's music is impressive indeed, as a lyricist he leaves a bit to be desired, and if From Me to You has a flaw, it's that listeners have heard most of these tales of love gone problematic told with greater eloquence from other writers, and while none of them are thuddingly awful, they're also not nearly as memorable as his melodies (which are also derivative, but with enough skill and craft to make them compelling despite their familiarity). Sandoval is able to blend form and content with equal skill on the gently melancholy "No One Else," and the playful venom of "I Hate Your Guts" is a welcome diversion, but too much of From Me to You suggests he ought to collaborate with a wordsmith who can bring the same strength of craft that Sandoval brings to his music. ~ Mark Deming

} | 200 | Extra efficient cooling
The new AdiaVent indirect adiabatic comfort cooling unit from Hoval features a patented pre-cooling, twin heat exchanger design that increases cooling efficiency by 20%, compared to conventional systems, while retaining the environmental benefits of adiabatic cooling. Using an indirect design provides sensible cooling to the space and ensures that no moisture is added to the supply air, so moisture levels within the space are unaffected.
AdiaVent can be used as a stand-alone cooling unit – or it can be easily retrofitted to existing air conditioning systems to boost installed cooling capacity very cost-effectively. For a power input of just 3kW, it offers a cooling capacity of up to 21kW with an air flow of 6000m3/h and the ability to add up to 20% fresh air to the supply air before cooling.
AdiaVent is distinguished from other adiabatic coolers by its exclusive, patented two stage adiabatic cooling process, using a primary and secondary heat exchanger to achieve a ‘double pass’ for additional cooling. The secondary heat exchanger is used to pre-cool outside air, which then passes to the primary heat exchanger where it augments the adiabatic cooling of the supply air to achieve high efficiencies.

Dark Mysteries (A Gothic MOD) Review
Platform: PC
Genre: MOD (RPG)
MODs, they are one of the few things (beside fans) that can make a game live longer. Sometimes they give a few extra quests/levels, enhance (or de-enhance) the graphics, optimize the game or they are a total conversion of the game ... changing well... everything. But from to time, from the deepest bowels of creativity, a few people arise
in a golden aura while angels sing lullabyes at their feet. Oh yeah, and roses fall from the sky. THEY, are dudes gathered on the internet or whatever, who share a passion for one game and MODing. Combining theyr forces they will embark on a journey that will ... eat theyr time, nerves, but will make us all happy. These are the people who are able to make a MOD... a long MOD and blend it perfectly with the games story, setting, making you wonder if it's official add-on.
The MOD I'm talking about is Dark Mysteryes. A MOD for Gothic 1 (yeah that old crappy game that gets everyone saying "duuude, really?" when I play it over and over again) which introduces some new camps, a new and interesting secondary-main-plot-which-you-should-play-cuz-it's-absolutely-brilliant-hypen-hypen-hypen.
The setting is the same as Gothic 1, the penal colony, with some new magical caves that appeared out of nowhere... and other parts added, as you go through the story. The new camps added are the Miners Camp (near the Old Mine, you can actually join them), the Fanatic camp, The Smugglers camp, The Bandits Camp (actually it's the Gothic 1 bandit camp, but they don't all attack you on sight and there's actually something to do there) and the Orchunters Camp. The main story (of the MOD of course) consists of you finding out some Dark Misteryes (I'm not gonna spoil it) the only thing I'm gonna say is that you will meet the Primevils.
The zones added are absolutely brilliant, especially the Underground world. Some quests, things from gothic 1 that didn't make any sense got "upgraded". So anything you remember that didn't make sense, like dudes in a cave running away from u on sight... now have a role.
Of course this is just some heaven-descended people's ideas, but I liked them .. and they all fit the Gothic universe/setting, including the steroid-fed-catapult from the mine camp.
There are a lot of new weapons. From normal swords (some with new models) to weird 1 damage special swords and helmets have been included into the game. Besides the scroll and rune magic, now we have crystals (that work just like runes). I can't say much of the new spells, cause, as always, the mage/spelcaster class is the last one I play in a RPG, especially Gothic. Almost forgot, you can learn weapon forging and cooking as well.
Here is a list with all of the extras.
Personally I loved it, and I'm waiting for others.
the bad: some won't play it cause of it has outdated graphics.
the good: (damn it, i should give bad marks to games too) it blends great with the story of Gothic (the first :D )
1. One thing, why the sound of a character ( when he speeks) is kinda disabled or broken or smth, I add it all the patches n add-ons and so on,and stil the new guys are not making the least sound as the subtitles appear!!! Do u know smth about it???
2. I think they don't 'speak' cause the mod is primarily made by and for germans, they seem to understand this game rocks more than the rest of the world and are the biggest fanbase for the game, so they only made an english translation in words later for people like us who aren't germans, they never made one with sound in english, gotta just play it this way.
Anyone may correct me if I'm wrong.
I also play Gothic over and over again by the way, who cares about graphics when you are playing the best game in the world right ?
Along with Gothic 2 of course.
I just finished Velaya, the mod for Gothic 2 which I also highly recommend..that one also doesn't have sound in English, only in german but with english subtitles for the same reason.
I was searching for mods for Gothic 1, after playing the game for about 12 times I embrace this mod with all my heart..I just started playing, found lots of new characters and i wept a little tear of joy..god how I love Gothic.. !! | http://gmzrev.blogspot.com/2009/05/dark-mysteries-gothic-mod.html | robots: classic

Hmmh, my sister has the same philosophy. The only problem is that Peanut has rules to follow at school and if she breaks them, she will also learn that there are consequences for her actions. It's important for peanut to inform the adults that you have entrusted her with to handle the situation. If the situation continues then perhaps I would resort to plan "B" (knock the kid on his docus). It's very difficult in todays society of zero tolerance to have the mind set that allows your child to think they are running things. I've seen it quite often. The kid probably needed a lesson in humility, hence a pop in the head, but there was not one, but two suspensions. Hmmh, something to ponder.
My husband belongs to a boxing club and has started taking our 6 yr old son with him to learn the basics--they're not allowed in the ring until their older though. If he does get into a fight (and I hope he doesn't) we want him to be able to defend himself.
AMEN! and I am not very religious! Well said.
Amen, brother!
What we have communicated with our older (7) daughter, who has been dealing with a similar situation, is that we will stand behind her even if she gets in trouble for standing up for herself, which in a conservative Catholic School, she very well may.
I certainly support trying to work things out with words first, but there is a point where enough is enough.
The quote "fool me once..." was the quote that Bush used when he started his war on terror (he didn't say the "shame on me" part though... he changed the ending to say, "won't fool me again" or something like that). Do we really want to raise the next generation of George W. Bush's? The problem is that some people teach their kids to use violence to handle problems, which forces other kids to have to defend themselves and potentially resort to violence when doing so. So, if everyone was a "pussy" then we wouldn't have to defend ourselves in the first place and there wouldn't be any fighting.
Ghandi rightfully said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." What is your daughter going to do when a bigger kid pushes her and she pushes him back and he doesn't fall down? He will be pissed and will probably push back even harder.
Hey MD, quick story: I was in 10th grade and being bullied like crazy by a bunch of high school stoners. One of them carried a knife and they were seriously tough and I was scared to death of them. They would torture me everyday threatening to kick my ass etc. One day my dad told me that I should continue to try to ignore them but be ready to fight if it came to that. He said that if one of the girls actually started something and I fought back, the others would be so freaked out they'd stay back. That's exactly what happened. One of the girls finally pushed me and I went crazy punching, scratching, screaming...I was fine, she had a huge scratch on her face and a black eye. None of the other girls got invovled and not one of them ever bothered me again.
As I watch the kids in my daughter's daycare, I see a bunch of undisciplined sugar addicts who are complete maniacs. Sometimes I feel like my daughter comes home every day with different scratch marks or bruises. I've spoken to the teachers about all of this. However, they seem completely overwhelmed, helpless, underpaid, and frazzled. Clearly, I can't rely on them.
I've taught my daughter to use her words. I've taught her to go to the teachers for assistance. None of it seems to be working. Finally, against my general pacifist philosophy, I told her to hit or scratch the bullies back. Since then? No problems whatsoever.
Yes, things will change as she gets older. She'll have to learn when and how to act responsibly in a safe manner. And like you, I'll teach her these things so she doesn't suffer from the hands of a violent sociopath.
However, the thing that I appreciate most about this post is your teaching the Peanut the meaning of personal responsibility and that actions have consequences.
That is perhaps the most important lesson of all.
Let me use my words and say that I'm surprised that you would use the word "pussies" in such a misogynistic way. Babe, I know you're better than that. You love me and you love Peanut. Let's leave the dick talk in the locker room. xo.BL.
Wow, BossLady is politically correct. Who would have guessed?
I love this post, I thought we are the only bad parents around who teach our child to fight back. Once again, I gonna show this post to my husband and make him love you so much! ha.
I couldn't agree with you more, MD. This is a great post that should be read by all parents. Whether they agree or disagree, it will make them think about the subject at hand.
A-freaking-men. As I like to say, "If you are going to dish it out, you better be prepared to get it back."
We just had a similar situation here. And a certain would-be bully learned not to mess with my nine year old son.
Yeah, I always thought "use your words" was for annoying whining, tantrum throwing. That's how I use it. As in, speak to me kid because whining is not a language I speak.
That said, my first instinct, being the older sister of two boys who were bullied, then taught to fight back, then became bullies themselves, is...that this freaks me out. I know I'm "scarred" by my own experience, but violence can empower people. Sometimes that's good. Sometimes it empowers them a little too much.
Anyway. I think it makes sense though. It's something for me to think about since Cai tends to be the one bullied by more aggressive kids. I tell him, "Caius, you can tell her that it's not okay to take that toy from you." But he's not even willing to do that at this point.
He's a lot like me.
Certainly though, if someone's hurting him, I want him to stand up for himself, protect himself. Whether that means yelling out his name really loud (I love that - OLIVIA!) or pushing someone hard on the ground, I don't want him to get taken advantage of or pushed around.
This was a tough read MD, largely because I can't bring myself to say the P word. It doesn't help that I'm the hovering, overprotective parent you speak of. My boy runs like Phoebe Buffay, so it seems like the most logical stance. I'm such a P***y!
Even though I agree somewhat with you. We have to teach our kids to stand up for themselves even if it involves being physical. The interesting thing I note about this blog is how many of the comments agree with you. I wonder if it is just the herd mentality.
Someone else who I know also writes a blog.She blogs about her personal life and very often misrepresents what really happens, but amazingly enough the comments are always sympathizing with her. I wonder if people knew the real word truth if they would be so kind.
A blog allows people to live in a fantasy world and to garner support and boost their self esteem from total strangers.
amen! it seems that children and even teens these days dont even know how to so much as use manners to resolve a situation much less use more force than words. it bothers me to see some people believe that words are the only means to resolving conflict and violence will solve nothing. I can name several instances not only in my life but also in america's history where talking simply had no meaning, but only delayed the inevitable. ww2 for instance....before the world went to war with the axis forces they allowed hitler to capture multiple countries, the whole time saying diplomacy will stop him. in the end violence is what it took to bring resolve to the situation. on a lesser note however, in my experience growing up, my father taught me to ask my opponent politely to leave me alone. If my opponent persisted, than i would give him an undeserving second chance which would be his last. the first time i would ask politely, the secong time would still be polite but more stern after that i would physically take them down and continue doing so until they agreed to submit.
i agree with your views and commend you. america needs to go back to when we taught our kids to defend themselves by all means rather than by only one means. talk is fine for some but for others, well they dont get it and have to learn by means of physical demonstration.
Jen @ amazingtrips
My kids carry with them at all times, big cans of whoop ass and they know how to open 'em up, if the need should arise. Several times a week, when one of my three-year-olds shoves another one down, I'll be standing over the fallen child saying "Don't be a victim!! Stand up for yourself!!"
I use the phrase "Use your words" all the time. But, I use it with children and adults alike because I can't stand it when people hem and haw and don't speak their mind. My use of this phrase has absolutely nothing to do with nonviolence and everything to do with getting to the point and not wasting time.
I have a schedule to keep.
Seriously, Jess
My mom raised us with this same philosophy. My brother was another kid's punching bag until, per mom's advice, he knocked the other kid on his ass one day.
Now, for me, it didn't quite work. My brother would hit me and mom would urge me to hit him back harder. But after I would, in true big-brother fashion, he'd slug me harder than that.
I guess knowing your opponent and your limitations are equally important lessons.
I use 'use your words' for the same reason nonlineargirl does...
because my kids aren't prone to hitting but they sure are prone to whining...
I'm a little late on this one, but I agree wholeheartedly with you. I teach my boys to be mindful of others feelings and to be polite, but also to stand up for themselves, it is not ok to bully someone, but it is not ok to allow yourself to be bullied. My 11 year old is 5'3" with his dads linebacker build and the sweetest kid you will ever meet, but he has his dads and my full permission to whip on some ass should any kid not bright enough to know better try to pick on him. You'd be surprised how many kids want to "try him" because they think he's soft for being polite, well mannered and nice to the girls and younger ones.
Way to go!
If we parents are OK with our daughters getting picked on or even hit, what kind of message it that? Girls (and boys too, but I have a girl) need to know its OK to stand up for yourself. Don't take crap off anybody.
When I was working as a manager in a corporation, one of the other managers (a known womanizer and all around creep) made a horrible comment to me. Did I sue? Did I file a complaint to HR? NO. I slapped him right in the face. HARD. He never bothered me again. So, I guess this is an issue we never outgrow.

Peanut Power!
I reckon you should get that printed on some t-shirts.
I like the basics behind this post, but can't say I would have my son run over to another kid and push him right in front of me.
Would you have been so brazen if the other child's large father was there? If so you could have had a family tag team match.
Glad to read you addressing this issue. I wholeheartedly agree with giving our kids the tools to deal with bullies. I wonder how many pussies grow to be douchebags? seen any research on that?
We have the problem with our kids being assertive/combative at home but roadkill in public, but don't think its a self-confidence thing since they're both TKDers (one a black belt). Maybe they're just not tough enough for the city.
Most posts here are positive, but my experience dealing with parents in these situations (and its been mostly mothers) has been defined by defiance and denial if not militancy. And godforbid if the misbehaving child is a girl (though that is rare).
Props for the use of "Pussies" in your post.
Jeff - So your three-year-old knocks a kid down and then you stand over the poor fallen child and tell him to quit being a victim? I hope I don't run into your family at the playground anytime soon.
And Corey - I don't know how many "pussies" grow up to be douchebags, but about 95 per cent of bullies do.
Let me be one of the few voices of dissent (or at least caution) here. I'm all for my boys standing up for themselves, and if push literally comes to shove then so be it. But there's a tone of "Hell yeah, my kid's gonna kick some ass!" creeping into some of the comments here. We do agree violence is always a last resort, right?
*Sorry, those comments should have been addressed to Jen@amazing trips and R2dad, respectively.
You know, if EVERY parent followed this philosophy, there'd hardly BE any anti-social behaviour in the playground anymore!
Wholeheartedly agree and will start teaching this to my 3yo (who by the way remains stoic when under attack which already makes me very proud)
St Paul Slim
I like it. Not in all circumstances, but at that age, it works most of the time. In some neighborhoods, though, it will get you a drive-by. Be sure you teach the kids that some won't stop at pushing.
Ten Feet
It's important to remember that physical force is not always mindless violence.
I'm really surprised to read comments in which people jump to the conclusion that MetroDad and everyone who agrees with him are terrible parents who are teaching their children to hit or strike out of frustration or anger.
First of all, why are people assuming that physical force is the only method of standing up for oneself and others which MD and other parents who agree with him are going to teach their kids?
Also, in the incident he describes, the Peanut is clearly not being taught to push back out of some kind of blind rage or panic. Instead, she is being taught when to judge that a line has been crossed, and to identify a proper level of force to use to assert and defend herself when other methods are ineffective.
You may disagree on where that line lies. Or you may believe that force is never justified, regardless of the circumstances. Whatever your personal beliefs may be, you should have the courtesy to not assume that the person who believes differently is an idiot, a barbarian, or lacking in judgment.
Our society is increasingly full of people who are incapable of critical judgment and can only think in absolutes. It's a grey world out there, and any parent who teacher his or her child to think only in black and white is doing that kid a huge disservice.
A FREAKIN MEN! holy crap it's true. I have to say I don't have the balls you do, but I'm sure as hell gonna grow em.
Good lesson for both kids, nice job MD
Metro Dad: I concur! Thank you for putting it out there!
M@: Good luck! LOL
Followed a link to get here and all I can say is A-MEN!! I teach my kids just the same way. I constantly remind them that if you don't learn to stand up for themselves to be prepared to be shit on for the rest of their lives. Harsh, maybe. But I never sugarcoat anything to do with reality.
Good for you and the Peanut!
I have taught my daughter the same thing. You rock MD.
While I fully agree with the sentiment of your post, the problem is that you've put the responsibility for taking a violent act onto the shoulders of a three year old, instead of where it belongs - with the adult. I'm not sure I want kids making those decisions, in fact, there are many adults I don't want making that decision either. But still, the problem is with the parent, not the kid. It is the parent that needs to learn; you might have been better off cold-cocking the mother of the kid. That is the message you are trying to get accross, isn't it - that we should drill everyone who does something we don't like?
I do like the bunghole line though.
Strathy in Canada - where we learned to 'drop the gloves' before we learned to skate.
I must admit that this is the first time I have been to your blog...stumbled across it from another blogger I know. But I love this post...I believe I may swing by here a little more often. In fact I may paraphrase this slightly and provide a link to this post in my own blog with your permission.
Leaving aside the merits or demerits of the 'parenting philosophy' which has drawn the attention of many of your 8.5 million commenters I have to say I am bewildered by the resounding chorus of 'amens'. This isn't a pentecostal tent. Why not say "hallelujah" or even "Oh, MD, I want you to slap me on the chin with your balls?'' I imagine there is a handy emoticon for that. With umlauts.
What a bunch of ass kissers (or something in that general neighbourhood). And I'm with Whit. Amen, Whit, AMENNNNN!
Only a guy would write this....
I forgot to add you might feel differently about this if you had more than one child.
Givinya de Elba
I use that phrase all the time. But that's because I'm a speech pathologist.
Love this post! This is what I tell my kids all the time - I have a boy and a girl. They don't have to stand there and take abuse. They have my full blessing to stand up for themselves, and fight if need be.
They shouldn't start fights, but they should know how to end them.
I'm way in the minority - and I'm headed out on the limb. I am disconcerted to see so much agreement here. Hang with me for a minute. I realize this isn't going to be the popular opinion in this group and I am not at all trying to be disagreeable or controversial. I'm talking about something I truly feel I have a solution for in the hope that someone might like something in my idea and adopt it to suit.
I know not everyone can do what my husband and I are doing, but more people could than are. We consider raising our kids and keeping them safe our most important responsibility and we've changed our lives to do it. Anyway, we're homeschooling - in large part because we feel there's just too much violence and too little supervision in schools. There are other options too (co-ops, communal tutoring, flexible work schedules), for people who couldn't do things the way we do if you're willing to think outside the box a little.
Imagine you're at work. In front of all your co-workers, you get big kudos from the boss for the great job you did. As all of you are filing out of the office, your co-worker, the bully, gives you a hard punch in the arm or shoves you down the stairs. Do you beat the crap out of the guy or do you just call the police because, "Hey, man, I don't have to take that kind of stuff." We have laws on our side - if, as a grown up, you're so poorly adjusted that you have to use your fists to express yourself, you're pretty much doomed to spend a lot of time in a very small space. My kid doesn't have those same protections. I'm my kid's protector. That's my job. My kids don't hang out with kids who are bullies. My kids don't watch television (unless you count the very occasional Kipper the Dog dvd) and are not subjected to violence they're not equipped to handle. My kids know they're safe, they're cared for, and they're loved - as all children should. I have a theory. My theory is that kids are rough because that's what they witness - or how they're treated - and because they're left on their own to figure out ways to handle things that they shouldn't have to. I've been in the same situation you described. I've been just as direct with the parent as you were, or, if the parent wasn't handy, with the kid. I don't hesitate to tell someone else's kid to settle down. Plenty loud enough for the parent to hear. And then I move my kid out of harm's way. Really, it's not "use your words" - it's "use your head" - and not as a battering ram. Violence begets violence. Take a good look around.

I'll never forget how empowered I felt as a kid when my dad not only told me it was OK for me to defend myself, but he taught me exactly how to do it.
Good for you for teaching your daughter how to stand up for herself.
I'm pretty sure you've taken some flack for this but I don't have the time to read through all the comments.
However, I'm a realist. Practically speaking, your daughter resorted to the final thing that worked. That's the ultimate goal. As far as not encouraging violence or touching another person's body inappropriately, that child didn't know better. In fact, I was sort of pissed just reading it because I can almost hear the non-committal parent asking the child to stop when it should have been demanded.
What you are talking about here in the very childlike playground sense is what I've been dealing with in the almost grownup high school students and parents I deal with (um, have you read me lately? like, last week?) and I have to say that I'm CONSTANTLY talking about how their actions, when uncorrected, become a problem for others.
This reinforcing goes for the parents, too. That's a much harder lesson to teach adults. Trust me.
Oh, wait. Crap. I didn't mean to hit post yet.
Last week when I got hurt in a fight between students and we had them separated the one who kicked me in my hand was trying to explain herself but was making OOOHHH sounds and crying and blustering her way through incoherent sentences.
Guess what I said to her?
Use your words! How am I supposed to understand you? You're nearly a grownup and you can't even speak to me about what you're feeling!
So, it was the violence first and the words second, but even a 17 year old had to be reminded that she actually has that capacity and that the responsibility here was upon HER.
Bravo, bravo! I hope you can hear me clapping down here in Texas, because this post rocked my world.
I agree with your parenting method 100%. We teach our boys the same thing.
Fabulous post.
Wow, that's spot on.
Extrapolate this concept to grownups. If you allow a friend or a stranger to treat you badly and dont defend yourself or tell them you dont want to be treated like that, they will continue to treat you like crap. Speak up for yourself? Game over.
I largely agree with what you've said here-- there are certain lessons parents can't teach their children, and the world needs to be able to teach them instead.
I want kids to push my kids back when they lose control, and my kids will certainly hear it from me as a followup if I see or find out about what they've done. But nothing I say or do could have the same effect as the person they are trying to intimidate with violence fighting back once they are given no choice.
By the same token, like you describe here, I want them to understand what it means that you only have two cheeks to turn.
How to Party with an Infant
I don't mind when the teachers tell this kid at my daughter's school to use his words when the little fucker is hitting everyone who passes by, including me. If a kid hits back this mo' fo' is off the chain. And words can be verbal shoves. They can push, bitch slap, sucker punch, whatever. I guess I want my daughter to use her words, to know what to say and how to say it.
I loved your story though.
This was an actual convo with my boy in middle school-
A- Mom I'm suspended for 10 days
Me- what?
A- X called me a bitch, I told him to shut up and leave me alone, X spit in my face and bitch slapped me in front of the whole class..
Me- uh-huh, and then
A- I decked him hard and he went down
Me- Don't worry about the suspension honey
