Goldenglove (Maxie Costello) was a moderately successful "black mask" criminal from the Kiefer Square district.
Maxie Costello, a former boxer with a knack for tinkering. He turned criminal after discovering a pair of hi-tech golden gloves, the property of a now dead alien found inside a crashed spaceship.
Like several other residents in the Kiefer Square area, every time he accumulated a decent sum of money, it soon was gone. In his case, almost all of it went back into his criminal endeavors, whether it was enhancing his lab or acquiring more sophisticated equipment. He once bought a blimp, that he converted into a submarine, only to have to destroy it and fake his death when being pursued by the Street Angel.
A fatality of the Black Mask Killer in 1998, his daughter took his gloves and became the new Goldenglove.
The gloves augment some of the skills of the wearer, like super-strength. It also provides a multitude of other powers, some yet to be discovered.

This week, I'll be teaching in Springfield, Ohio for the Remembrance Quilt Guild. It's a Set-In Piecing Simplified workshop using a scrappy tumbling blocks quilt as the project. As I was packing my workshop samples, I got to thinking about how much easier making a spontaneous, scrappy quilt is for me since teaching the spontaneity and value workshops based on Gai Perry's classic book, Color From the Heart.
Earlier this year, Joanne over at Everyone Deserves a Quilt asked how I organize that exercise and this is what I shared with her. I'm sharing it with you today because I think it would be a good warm up for your fall quilt making activities. Invite a few quilting friends, a minimum of 5 to 6 people is best -- more is fine, to join you. Here's how I set it up.
Everyone cuts 4" squares into triangles -- usually two squares each from 50 fabrics so there are 200 triangles. When the group gets together, everyone trades 50 triangles -- easiest, fastest way to do that is to count out 5 stacks of 10 triangles then trade each stack with a different person.
The amount of time for the session determines whether or not the group does any sewing.
For a half-day session, there is no sewing. After the trading, put all the triangles into a brown paper bag. Have a piece of flannel or cotton batting set up for a "work wall". Pull two triangles out of the bag, decide which is the darker of the two and then position them on the flannel depending on the overall layout being used.
For an all-day session, after the trading is done everyone sits down with their bags, pulls out two triangles out of the bag lottery style and stitches them together -- no cheating -- chain piecing should get most quilters through this step in a hour to an hour and a half.
Press the seams towards the darker triangle. Then back into the bags they go again. Now begin to draw out the HST's, one at a time, and place them onto the "work wall" in the correct position for the design. Expect to whine a lot at this point but just keep pushing through!!
Everyone starts at the upper left corner and works across the top row until there are 10 HST's in place. Then begin the second row at the left end and just keep going until the piece is 10 across by 10 down. Once everything is laid up on the work wall, it's best to take a break.
After about 5 minutes, participants should then come back to their work and they can make minor adjustments. First though it's important to identify what they like about the spontaneous layout. An important part of the exercise is to experience the spontaneity and see that when you are working with fabric you enjoy, it works well. An example of a minor adjustments might be something like there are only 5 aqua triangles in the entire piece and they are all clustered in the same area -- then it's good to scatter them around so they don't draw the eye to that area but rather serve as a "bit of sparkle" here and there.
It's helpful to the group to make part of the exercise walking around and looking at each participants work wall, talking about each piece, identifying things that work, and paying attention to how they feel about each other's pieces. Doing this quadruples the effectiveness of the exercise.
It's easy to overwork these pieces by switching so much around that the piece loses it's spontaneity and becomes too controlled to be interesting. The unexpected is what makes a quilt interesting!! The two fabrics in each HST don't have to be coordinated or match -- the light vs. dark positioning carries the design.
There are lots of options for the overall layout. Usually I have everyone do the same simple arrangement but it might be fun to have several arrangements and randomly assign different ones to each participant? I've never tried that.
This is the last one I did. They are fun to make and the final border really brings them to life.
And they make cheerful charity quilts as well.
My charity group just had some books donated to us to sell off to raise money for our batting. There is a copy of Color From the Heart available if you are interested!! $10 plus shipping -- just leave me a comment!!
Hope your week is off to a good start!!
Mary Huey
'
What a fun exercise and a great way to learn about value. This would be a fun activity for a Guild bee day!
Color From the Heart class (Austinburg...a gazillion years ago) was my favorite class ever!

*******************************************************
Deja Vu Again by Cj
"Abbey? Are you ready?" Jed asks, his voice floating in from the bedroom to where I stand in the bathroom.
"Coming," I answer after giving my appearance the once over. He whistles wolfishly when I step into his line of sight.
"Wow. You look beautiful." There's a knock on the door interrupting any further comments and a second later, Leo emerges to announce it's time to go.
"We don't want to be late, sir."
"No, we wouldn't want that," my husband retorts before offering me his arm and leading me to the ballroom. As we enter, the music stops and applause erupts. Jed begins his speech and I listen half-heartedly. Instead, I search the room looking for a familiar form. Spotting C.J., I allow my eyes to wander down her body for a second before reluctantly turning my attention back to the crowd surrounding us.
After I glance in her direction for the hundredth time tonight, I know I must get away before my lack of attention to our guests is noticed. I make my excuses and head out the double French doors onto the balcony. I need to put my thoughts in order and for the world to stop turning for just a moment. The cool air is refreshing as I step out onto the terrace. I tell my Secret Service escort to stay inside, promising to remain in his line of sight. I lean against the railing and look out over the sleeping flowers. The clear night sky and the full moon offer plenty of light to see the garden. Before I get any further with my silent musings, I hear someone slip quietly through the doors and I know it's her. I can't stop the smile that seems to materialize whenever she's near, so I don't turn to look at her. I'm afraid the urges I'm fighting to contain will reappear at the sight of her. She hesitates before taking a few steps forward.
"Penny," she says conversationally.
"They're not worth much, are they?" I ask in the same, light tone.
"Don't tell Sam that. He fought very hard to save that particular variety of currency." She moves to stand beside me, yet I still don't look at her. "I didn't think you were supposed to be here tonight." It's not a question and she's not requesting an explanation, so I don't offer one.
"Sorry you had to find out through the channels. It was a last minute decision."
"Anything to do with why we're standing out in the cold?" I shake my head automatically but then turn to face her, intending to tell her the truth. As soon as I look at her, I lose my nerve.
"I just needed air," I say instead as I turn away from her. "That's all." We allow the silence to descend. Suddenly the memories of our recent conversations hit me and I laugh softly at the repetitiveness of them all. "Deja Vu," I whisper.
"Excuse me?" she asks, her voice barely masking her surprise.
"We seem to only have conversations under the cover of night." The thoughts that have been occupying my mind recently start to swirl to the surface and I speak before my control can take over. Without permitting her to respond, I face her and continue with my rant. "Do you realize we haven't had a decent talk during daylight hours in almost a year? Before then we talked every day."
"Things are different. We're different. Time is..." She doesn't finish her explanation. I didn't expect her to. Neither of us seems to understand what really happened to force the change in our relationship, so we offer excuses in way of truth. I accept her words with no argument, knowing there's nothing I can really say right now.
"Yeah."
"Why are you bringing this up now?" she asks but I can't answer her.
"No reason." I study her for a long moment before turning away from her again. I decide a change of subject is in order.
"I enjoy stargazing. I used to stand on the roof of whatever hospital I was on call at and watch the sky. It was peaceful and soothing, the opposite of what was usually going on inside."
"They're stable. That's what I've always loved about them." I feel her gaze shift from the sky to me and I wonder briefly what she's thinking. But her fingers are suddenly touching my skin and I can't stop the gasp that escapes my lips. Coherent thought disappears as I place my hand over hers then interlace our fingers. I allow myself to enjoy the contact. It seems like a simple gesture but I've come to realize that whatever C.J. and I have is anything but simple. After a long moment, I release her hand then turn to face her knowing that, once again, our time together must be cut short.
"We should go in before they come looking for us." She nods then meets my eyes.
"I know it's part of the problem," she says softly as she motions around us, "but I'm always here." Her words hit me much harder than they should and all I can do is smile slightly and offer the only truth we'll have tonight.
"I know and you're right. It is a part of the problem." I shake my head sadly. "I wish it weren't but, for now, there's not much either of us can do about it." I smile gently then walk away from her toward the light inside. "C'mon. We don't want you to get sick. You're not an easy person to deal with when you're sick. Almost as bad as Josh," I tease, hoping to gain my equilibrium back before entering the ballroom. The Secret Service agent waiting just inside opens the French doors and I wave her in. She stops and looks at me for a moment before making her second appearance to the party for the night. I follow her but quickly disappear into the crowd before I can convince myself to finish the conversation we started outside. Deja vu again, I think, as I take my place next to my husband and allow the world to turn once more.

“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” –Winnie the Pooh
What a wonderful year it’s been! For me, this past year has been perfect. We take the mick out of Chalon, but we really love it. When we all first arrived in the booming metropolis of Chalon-sur-Saône, I think it made us nervous. Who knew that this would turn out to be an amazing year? I mean, ok, maybe we didn’t make/do party as much as we wanted, but we saw Moses’ staff! And the Prince of Monaco! Despite being a princess-stealing, child neglecting bastard, he’s royalty!
Can you believe it all began with a picnic at my school and Shrek in French? It pretty much became the template of our year: we eat bread and cheese, drink wine, and watch something. And the rain. You can’t forget the rain. It was bad this year, the year the Saône flooded a lot. I really wanted to run along it too, explore it. I guess I can’t say that I follow rivers… It didn’t hinder us from exploring other towns though! Starting with a tour of Tours and ending with a nice time in Nice, we definitely had an adventurous year and got to know each other better! (sorry, guys, I had to…)
Doug and I got to introduce you guys, Alex and Kate, to Thanksgiving. Particularly, pumpkin pie, which is delicious. I’m glad we also got to teach you what REAL pancakes, lemonade, and biscuits are. We were close enough by the Fête des Lumières in December that Doug and Alex, you didn’t ditch Kate and I when we got stuck in a wall of people, even with a train to catch. And the next week was our big adventure: renting a car to Germany! Isn’t it funny how it was the highlight of our year, yet Kate slept most of the way there and we spent less than 15 hours in actual Germany? Still totes worth it. We even committed crimes together: stealing disco balls, flowers, and menus; Riding trains sans composter; Sitting on the grass in Monaco; Wandering into someone’s yard, which we thought was a chateau; Stalking Kevin (though we never got to the illegal side with this. Just Facebook). Oh Kev… We have our own vocabulary and understandings too, such as totes awks, porq’s pas, the sitch (or is it sit?) [No, Doug, you still can’t get away with saying that]. We also each know the significance behind the number 126. And despite failing at a Morocco diet, we all stuck together and stayed strong throughout the year. We were always pretty good about catching the train, although Kate caused quite a scare at times, and we always got from point A to point B, despite our dismal map reading skills. I don’t know if we would quite make it as Germans.
I learned so much from you all over this past year too, such as the difference between chips and fries (even though today, Kate, you called Alex’s fries chips!) and words like “fit,” “uni,” “cash point,” etc. If I hadn’t met you, the phrase “touch wood” would have an entirely different meaning . I picked up some British vocab, though I still have to say that “I went to hospital and watched the football” would be wrong. I went to THE hospital to watch football. Still weird. I can’t completely tell the difference between a Yorkshire, Darbyshire, and London accent, but I can tell the difference between a posh and not posh accent, so that’s improvement, right? I also no longer imitate any British person I hear (or only a few words), so that’s improvement. I think Doug and I bonded over that at the beginning… though Doug may have picked up too much slang after watching the In Betweeners. Remember, Doug, ‘Murica! And Alex, thanks for attempting to teach me Finnish, though the only thing I really remember is Moi, and I’m not even sure that’s how you spell it…
I think we all learned a lot this year, both from our schools and our traveling. Although our English may have suffered, our knowledge of other languages has been broadened. We’re practically French/German/Italian/Czech/Hungarian/Moroccan/Turkish! And we learned life lessons too. Remember what the Senegalese man on the train to Lyon taught us: true beauty comes from the heart, and Alex, you are not more beautiful than his wife! As much as he might really think you are. We met a number of the strange men, such as Alex’s brown-skinned friend, the racist who likes foreign women, or the Nice bartender. And I didn’t even mention our favorite Frenchie, though he worried us over his expulsion. Oh what a portrait of French guys!
It’s been a great year. And here come the waterworks (worse than Alex watching Titanic): I truly feel lucky to have been with you guys. You guys pointed out and brought out the incredibly cheesy side of myself, and for that I thank you. Not only did it help me to discover myself and accept who I really am, we also got some great pictures out of it! (Doug, I swear you won’t regret this in 20 years!). You’ve all been so supportive of me through everything this year. If you guys weren’t here, I would have felt so alone. I would have watched HIMYM and would never have seen the day of light. While Steve Jobs is not my personal hero, I definitely will be appreciating my iPhone and Mac to keep in touch. Guys…. I’m going to miss you. A lot. Just remember two things: We survived Morocco: we can do anything! And also remember: If I have to blackmail you, I have incriminating photos of each and every one of you! Muahahaha! But really, Vous me manquerez immensely and I can’t wait until we meet again! May Dexter never find us and may the ghosts in the apartment above Kate’s allow us a safe journey home!
Cheers love! Thanks babe! Hats of to an awesome year, et a bientot!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (lots of love, English style)
Sam

Viva La Karma!
While domestic terrorists are destroying Mizzou and other college campuses, foreign terrorists are setting the rest of the world ablaze. Radical Islamists launched a series of terrorist attacks in Paris, France that left scores dead. This is the foreign policy terrorism report.
Why do Islamists murder people?
Because they can. Because they feel like it.
“There will be consequences.”
No. There will not.
“ISIS will not get away with this.”
They already have.
The choice is clear.
We can embrace politically correct claptrap about diversity and multiculturalism. Or, we can admit that we cannot all coexist. We can admit that radical Islam is incompatible with civilized society.
We must halt all immigration from Muslim countries until we know who these people are. This is not xenophobia. It is survival.
The politically correct approach to foreign policy has completely collapsed in failure. Terrorist acts will keep happening until the world returns to leaders willing to use hard military power. Anything short of overwhelming military force is surrender. The Neocons are right. Their critics are wrong.
France is done. Europe is finished. It is not too late to save America.
Every Islamist attack is another reminder that American college protesters have nothing to say. Nothing they want matters.
Radical Islam is a life and death struggle between civilization and barbarism. Everything else from climate change to elitist social causes is complete and total nonsense. Time and resources are finite. Every moment spent focusing on drivel is a victory for Radical Islam.
On November 30, the world’s imbeciles meet in France to discuss climate change.
That’s right. While Islamists murder people across the globe, overprivileged leftist elitists will be navel gazing about the least important issue in our lives.
This is not a policy conference. It is a taxpayer funded vacation. The real world is on fire now while faculty lounge children worry about what might happen long after their insignificant bodies leave this earth. Their minds left long ago.
It is time to engage in climate change shaming. If you still believe this climate change summit matters, and that Paris needs this right now, then you do not give a damn about people.
World leaders must make themselves useful for the first time since 2009. It is time to wage all out war on Islamists with as much military force as possible.
After the terrorists are defeated and major economies are fixed, then and only then can leftists have their silly little Paris junkets where they navel gaze, do nothing, and vow to conquer something no normal person cares about.
To truly defeat ISIS, put President Obama, John Kerry and Hillary Clinton in charge of it. ISIS would promptly apologize and disengage
France harasses Jews and coddles Islamists. What could possibly go wrong?
Hollywood and global leftists are in tears. The ISIS attack on France broke six wine bottles and may have damaged a Brie cheese factory.
Maybe if ISIS beheaded a few climate change activists, liberals would learn what matters. No, they would remain imbeciles with no grasp on reality.
Can’t somebody think climate change is the greatest world threat without being an imbecile?
No.
All Syrian refugees in USA should be put in San Francisco, Mizzou dorms, or the White House with their kindred spirits.
The same liberals saying the USA should not be the world’s policeman want us to be the world’s homeless shelter. Let Muslim nations house their Syrian brothers.
Give me your tired, your poor, your terrorist masses yearning to break the free.
Syrian refugees are citing the Geneva Convention as they beg not to be relocated to Chicago’s South Side.
President Obama knows Syrian refugees jeopardize American security. He needs more Democrat voters for 2016. His entire existence puts politics over policy. So what if innocent Americans die? He’ll blame others. As Hillary Clinton says, What difference at this point does it make?
Of course we don’t want Middle Eastern refugees. The last time we let one in he became President.
No, not really. The selfie-taking Pajamaboy metrosexual Vulcan in the White House is not foreign born. He was born in New York in an IBM laboratory. He is a computer. That is why he lacks human emotion and empathy.
President Obama is like a student trying to convince the teacher that he actually did read the book. The teacher says he is in the wrong class on the wrong day. Obama keeps talking in the hopes everyone else will think they are all in the wrong class on the wrong day and that he is right to be there.
Forget the emperor having no clothes. Obama is naked in winter trying to convince the world it’s Summer in South Florida and his are not short, shriveled, and a little to the far left.
Now Obama thinks he is Billy Crystal. Forget Paris. In two weeks other men will be buttering his buns (croissants) as France basks in the glow of climate change.
The Paris Climate Change Conference is redundant. We already have the Special Olympics.
At least participants in the Special Olympics can learn stuff and process information.
To perpetually outraged liberal activists and their fake umbrage, let me apologize for the comparison. Comparing special needs individuals to climate change activists is wrong and unfair. Special needs individuals have value.
Now Syria is rejecting refugee applications from Baltimore, Washington, DC, and Detroit. Bashar Assad is telling telling the liberal leaders of those cities to stop trying to export their worst and just fix their own messes.
All Syrian refugees in America must live in white liberal areas. This is a serious chance to test a policy
Liberals and conservatives have a fundamental disagreement about how to improve the world. This is not a claim that liberals are unpatriotic, or that they want to destroy America. Their policy prescriptions are just bad. Liberal lawmakers who pass laws never live under those laws. Wealthy white liberals are exempt from the laws they inflict on the rest of us.
Gun control? Rich white liberals have private security. Obamacare? Rich white liberals can afford it. Illegal immigration? Rich white liberals do not have to worry about how it drives down wages. Crime? Again, rich white liberals have private security.
So if liberals want Syrian refugees in their areas to show their tolerance and compassion, and conservatives do not, then give everyone what they want. It is high time that both sides are given a fair chance to see the results of their policies.
If liberals are right, so be it. There is a first time for everything. It is not like this is a life and death issue like climate change or uncaring words on a college campus.
This was the Foreign Policy Terror Report. At this very moment Islamists are preparing to blow up every corner of the world as leftists worry about America’s failure to increase diversity and multicultural.

It’s impossible to not feel old when you watch Dave Grohl give into nostalgia with projects like Sound City and the upcoming Sonic Highways HBO docu-series where he’s re-visiting his old stomping grounds and paying respect to the history of music. Wasn’t Grohl Nirvana’s 8-armed drummer a few years ago?
The same thing goes for Rick Rubin, the co-founder of Def Jam records and the iconic record producer who helped establish The Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, and Run DMC. What business does Rick Rubin have being 51 years old, touring the halls of his old stomping grounds at the Weinstein dormitory on the campus of NYU where Def Jam began for a new video for Rolling Stone?
The fact is, while the music still resonates and feels like the anthems of our youth (even if we found them a few years after they dropped), the people behind those separate revolutions are now greyhaired and maybe a little wistful for days gone by. Like I said, it’s a weird thing because the last thing I’m about to do is start feeling old while grooving to Cookie Puss, but I suppose I could and maybe I should.
That brewing existential crisis aside, though, it’s kinda cool to hear Rubin and some of his compatriots talk about the start of Def Jam and it’s amazing to realize how humble their beginnings were and how close knit and casual the whole thing was at that time. It’s also astonishing to me that that dorm room hasn’t been roped off and put on display. I can’t deal with the possibility that there have been kids sitting in Rick Rubin’s old dorm room rocking out to Kelly Clarkson or Ke$ha over the last few years. Has a Baha Men album ever bounced off of those historic walls? Honestly, I can’t even.

“The fact is, while the music still resonates and feels like the anthems of our youth (even if we found them a few years after they dropped)”
Ha. “We” means white people. Thank you, Christopher Columbus
I was actually referring to people who found the Beastie Boys and DMC in the 90s or later. I was like 2 or 3 when Licensed to Ill came out, so while I was ONE. DOPE. TODDLER. I didn’t get into hip hop until I was a little older. Prior to that it was all Sharon, Lois, and Bram and a little bit of Sabbath.
I wish this was a full length documentary. The closest we’ll come is the Hip Hop Family Tree books that have come out. I wish there was a definitive, full length documentary about the early days of Def Jam that wasn’t called “Krush Groove”…
Rubin’s an amazing producer. Probably one of, if not THE best one out there.

Well, I wasn't planning on having a blog, because I didn't want to use English. But then I decided I'd be using it less with a blog than if I was telling individual people what I was up to. So, I finally gave in and made this blog for everyone to follow my year in Finland. Hopefully I'm on here enough to keep everyone satisfied... But probably not. I apologize ahead of time.
It's down to twenty one days now until I leave, and I couldn't be more excited! I had been really stressed about packing... until last night. Packing EVERYTHING I think I'm going to need for an entire year seemed impossible. But, Mom helped me to narrow down the clothes I will take, and when I was freaking out than it wouldn't fit in my suitcase, and if it did, it would be over the 50 pound weight limit, she packed everything up in my suitcase. To my surprise, everything fit, and it was only 35 pounds! So, of course, I added a few things to the pile. Now, I'm really not worried or stressed about anything, just anxious to receive my visa and flight information to make everything official! :)

Wow! I haven't written one of these posts in quite a while but I really felt like doing a chatty post so here we are :) I have all these thoughts running around my head and instead of doing little blog posts on them separately I though it would good to just get them all out.
My Rabbits
On my birthday weekend when my husband & I were away my two rabbits got in together (they are male & female) which means I am pretty sure they are pregnant and I am SO EXCITED! They should be due from this weekend onwards and she usually has her bubs 4 weeks from the date. I can't wait and I'll be sure to put pics up if she does have them :)
This month I subscribed to +bellabox Australia and received my box on Monday! I have decided that I will stay subscribed for at least 3 months and then decide whether I want to continue. I thought every month I might do 2 posts for each month's box. I want to do a post that shows all the items I got in the box and then another one with swatches and reviews. This way I should be able to get the open box post up quite quickly and then have time to test the products and do review post after I have had time to trial the items properly.
Sorry I haven't had time yet to get the Open Box post up for February's box yet but I should have it up this week and then hopefully the review post next week. It was so exciting to get the box at my door and I can't wait to bring it to you!
Healthy Eating
Ew! I hate those words :) It sounds so "fad" like but for me at the moment it isn't. I've started having breakfast daily, not snacking all day and sticking to a meal plan that works. And I am so so proud of myself! It's been nearly 2 weeks and still going strong. In fact it's getting easier. I'm not getting as hungry during the day which is a massive plus because it means I don't get as many cravings anymore. What I want to work on is going for a walk/run at night after tea and also not eating a snack with my coffee at night.
My Skin
My face is so dry at the moment and I know why. I will do a seperate post on it but a while ago I was using 2 sample Neutrogena products together I got terribly dry skin. I had thought it was due to using the 2 products at once but now I realise it was just one of them. So I have stopped using it and am slathering my face with cream every night trying to make it better. I hate dry skin!
Holiday Plans
A few months ago I wrote a post titled "America" about my plans to go to America at the end of the year and this is still in the works. It's the first overseas holiday my husband and I are planning entirely on our own and it is stressing me out! I have no idea where to start when it comes to getting decent accomodation for a reasonable price in a good location. I have no idea about anything really apart from the fact I want to do flights through an agent and I want to go to Disneyland/world :)
If you have planned your own overseas trip I would love any tips you might have as I am so lost!
Future Posts
I am planning to try and post at least twice a week with the occasional bonus post. I have finally got myself a box where I have put products I need to review for you guys so those posts are coming. Not only that but I also want to continue with my makeup collection series. I was also thinking of doing a few receipe/cooking posts and maybe even organisation/home posts. 2014 is looking exciting for me & my blog so I hope you enjoy it!
Let me know if you have any ideas on posts you'd like to see. I love tags and life posts but also I am keen to review new beauty/body products for you!
Hope you are all having a good week!!

Hypnotherapy, Life coaching Introduction Video
Are you thinking about giving hypnotherapy a try? Maybe you’ve considered it in the past, but want to learn more about it before you try this method for change. That’s completely understandable.
In truth, finding the right hypnotist in Auckland might seem like a difficult thing to accomplish. There are many masters at hypnosis, so choosing the best to meet your needs may seem like a chore.
Pauline Young is a master hypnotist. She has helped many people through hypnosis over the years, and she’d like to help you too. If you have a problem and need her help, please call the number on the site or fill out the form for more information.
The Many Uses of Hypnosis
We’ve already determined that hypnosis has many different uses. We will share some of the most popular ways to use this technique today, so you have a much better idea of how it can help you.
Overcoming Phobias – Do you have an unexplainable fear of flying? Do you have a fear of heights? Are you afraid to drive over bridges? Are you afraid of being stuck in traffic? Do you struggle with heights? Is it difficult – or even impossible – to ride on an elevator?
Everything mentioned above is a phobia. If you have an issue in any of these areas, you need help. Hypnosis is a great way to overcome these phobias, and it really works wonders. So many people have achieved excellent results through the help of a qualified hypnotist.
Stop Smoking – Are you a smoker? If so, odds are you’ve tried to quit at some point in your life. Maybe you felt that it was just too difficult. Maybe you thought the withdrawal symptoms were just too hard to handle. Maybe you felt like a fish out of water without your cigarettes.
Like many others, you feel that quitting smoking is impossible. You might feel that it’s just not the right time. Or maybe you feel that it’s easier to smoke than not. With hypnosis, you have a chance to stop smoking without all of the drama that typically goes along with it. You’ll have less withdrawal, feel less uncomfortable and have an easier time quitting with the help of a qualified hypnotist. It’s possible if you open your mind and give this a try.
Weight Loss – We live in a world filled with temptation. It’s so hard to pass up a delectable treat. But if you ever intend to lose the excess weight, you’ll have to learn how to control your appetite. You’ll have to learn how to say no to junk food and other mouth-watering dishes that have their hooks in you.
With hip gnosis, all things are possible. You can lose weight with the help of a qualified hypnotist. We’ve helped countless people solve their weight problems after just a few sessions.
For help with anxiety, stress, weight loss, smoking cessation and more, please call the number on this website. Or fill out the contact form to receive further information.

I want to block some sites in my office sites such as facebook and also downloading from anysites
Don't let them anywhere near a PC then, or disconnect there internet connection. I can't see any other way to stop them downloading. is quicker than waiting for an answer....
Googling is quicker than waiting for an answer....
windows>system32>driver>etc>host file open in notepadat the bottom edit in new line127.0.0.1
127.0.0.1
Blocking downloads is a bit more difficult than just blocking specific websites. You may need to install parental control software ( for example ) on each computer.
To block websites, I believe the simplest way is to block certain domains in your router.However, blocking downloading is not so easy. You need a network web filtering program which supports web content-type filtering. Programs you can try:WFilteruntanglewebsense

TJ's Health Bites
As canine athletes, my dogs need to be in tiptop shape, so I feed them high-quality food and let them have their TJ 'treat' every day. If I shake the jar, they come running!

PM2 Dog Agility Team Trainer Deborah Davidson Harpur says, "As canine athletes, my dogs need to be in tiptop shape, so I feed them high-quality food and let them have their TJ 'treat' every day. If I shake the jar, they come running!"

Irish student Tara McGrath has pioneered the development of a fuel efficient stove which she wants to field test in southern Ethiopia with ngo Self Help Africa. Chronic respiratory infections are caused by breathing in wood smoke from indoor cooking fires and Tara’s stove could help reduce this problem as well as the burden on the environment.

I love the idea of adventure.
Traveling to remote places. Meeting people with entirely different backgrounds, languages and customs.
I want to learn, and hear people’s stories. I want to discover new things about myself in the process. I want to go places – about everywhere, actually – and see how different places around the globe are alike and different, and help people. But definitely places non-polar.
So last week when I picked up Ice Bound off my small-town library’s shelf, I surprised myself when I put it at the top of the pile of three books I selected for check-out. The story of a doctor looking for something new, a challenge where she could contribute intrigued me – and still intrigues me. Ice Bound, published in 2001, relays Ohio native Dr. Jerri Nielsen’s experience practicing medicine under a dome on the South Pole.
The pages share much more than that, though. In it, the doctor paints a picture of the mental and sociological aspects of living in a closed community of 41. Poetry jam sessions, theme parties, terse e-mails, and the brutality, beauty and isolation of the South Pole and Antarctica.
Stories of snowmobile rides and an outing exploring the previous South Pole station with her friends showed me how what I read wasn’t a story. These weren’t characters. They are people.
Nielsen tells of her love for her little hospital and the hands-on community medicine she practiced, and I found I loved it, too. She made medicines. She trained others for backup, and for emergencies requiring more than one set of hands.
She revealed how she looked forward to, and experienced, the dark night that stretched for months. Nielsen somehow coaxed me into sharing her mixed feelings when the sun rose again, bringing days with no night at all. Another surprise, considering I am confident I would suffer from seasonal affect disorder if I lived in Seattle, let alone on the South Pole.
But she also expressed her fear and questions and explained her limited medical options when a lump she found in her breast turned out to be cancerous. The discovery came after the dome station was closed to outside flights for the winter. Her courage, her friends’ and co-workers’ ability to help her, and the way the Polies teamed up and took advantage of 1999 technology to help her impressed me, and touched my heart.
What a remarkable group of people. To get through such an experience, I’d have to be like King Hezekiah. Shoot, to get through day-to-day, I need to cling to my Maker.. 2 Kings 18:5, The Message
Even as summer invites us from around the corner, this true story set on the South Pole, promises to be a great beach read. The 90 degree F temperatures outside might not seem so oppressive, when you read about a setting of -90 degree F. Enjoy.

Reblogged this on ETC., ETC., & ETC..
Petrodollars baby.
The House of Saud is spreading this insanity while also spreading money, power, and “extras” to the All Powerful Elite. Bill’s 12 yro girlfriends are easy to supply when you are the overlord in their community. Wining and dining Senators and Representatives is simple, when these same fornicators are more than willing to sell their country to you. Especially land and companies that Congress does not own. Send the US Military to do your bidding? A very easy task when you know whose palm to grease. Need a way around troublesome laws? Just hire the correct lobbyist firm, invoke antidiscrimination laws on your behalf, and voila! Instant access to US Taxpayer paid for arms and military equipment.
The New World Order is more than willing to play for pay. It is all so sordid that the coming Festivities will be a relief in some ways.
“more than willing to sell their country to you.”
It’s not a question of selling out countries to them. They don’t think in terms of countries. They believe that they are part of the group that owns the world – and they’ve got a fair bit of evidence to support that contention. They may well be part of the lowest rung of the global elite, but they are part of it. Many of them, at least.
Stealth hit the bullseye 10 ring.
When you can digitize currency masquerading as ‘wealth,” and in a heartbeat wire funds into an offshore account and make someone an instant multi-millionaire for doing some political “favor,” you’ve lost all moral, spiritual, and honorable moorings.
Cleaning up this mess will either proceed quickly or slowly, but each has its own special hazards. Viz. a good puke or enema or a long protracted illness resulting in death.
Jury is still out.
I wonder where I will be headed this Memorial Day.
Ended up with fifth generation families of pioneer stock .Extended family in one area. Smart move many generations ago. Family,tribe and clan are essential. If you don’t have a common bond…invent and nurture one.
If you do happen to come out the other side of the impending cluster-fuck of biblical proportions, it would be comforting to have some familiar faces to share your sorry ass with.
It is only a matter of perception. Lethal injection is so much kinder and gentler. Except when it is not.
My Pop had proposed that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts buy a Cessna aircraft and remove a rear door. Fly the condemned out over the ocean and push them out. Sounds pretty sound to me. Recycling and all. Amateurs. The reigning sharp edge champs are the Huti who butchered one million Tutsi in a three month period utilizing machetes.
Fucking pussy Saudis are half-stepping this shit. Human head Whack A Mole. More Brothers execute each other daily in Chicago. I don’t give a rats fuck. The sand niggars have been butchering each other for centuries. Anyone who thinks they are going to change these reprobates is clinically delusional.
Know that you did everything possible to protect and cherish your true family. Freedom and liberty from tyranny and oppression is worth standing up for.
“I wonder where I will be headed”
ISWYDT
Somebody got it.
Reblogged this on Starvin Larry.
these are cherished local customs that by no means should be interfered with. I fear Bracken is one of those Imperial Stormtroopers that Buppert just warned us about

The American mainline news organizations have been the main source of legitimizing, covering, and hiding the greatest threat to America and to Americanism: American Islamist. The American media has been hiding and covering for terrorist Muslims, which is an exceeding large majority of young Muslims in this Country.
The mainline news organizations are afraid of political correctness and therefore turn their eyes and ears away when Muslim terrorism happens, even to one of their own.
This is the case of the Oakland, California newspaper editor, Chauncey Bailey, who was gunned down my Muslim terrorist on the street. There is no question of who did it or why. It was certified home grown Muslims and he was gunned down broad daylight for investigating the terrorist activity of these Muslims. He leaves behind a wife and two children.
This is very reminiscent, almost a repeat, of the assassination of the Dutch filmmaker for daring to make a documentary critical of Islam, although it was accurate.
Assassination of newspaper reporters is rare in the United States. It is crossing a line that make America by definition uncivilized, a third-world banana republic. Nonetheless, the news organizations of America would not report the story.
It was finally broken an made public by newspapers in England. Nonetheless it was still ignored until conservative talk shows and bloggers came out and told America the truth. The truth that this was a Muslim terrorist attack that assassinated a newspaper reporter.
The first timid reports in the American press began to appear; but, they would not mention that the assassination was by Muslim terrorists. It would seem like an unrelated death, even possibly a day-to-day murder that happens in Oakland. No this one was different. It was the day to day killing by Muslim terrorist that happen all the time all over the world.
Finally the Chicago Tribune newspaper wrote about the story in today's paper. A front page story, a story about the gunning down of an American newspaper man for the story he was investigating. An event so rare and in the interest of the newspaper people because it was one of their own. But it was Muslim terrorism so all civilized norms go out the window. The Chicago Tribune took over three weeks to report the story that was readily available in England two weeks ago. The newsroom staff of the Chicago Tribune should be ashamed of themselves; but they were finally embarrassed and shamed enough by the conservative press and radio to print the following story:
Chicago Tribune story on Oakland newspaper editor gunned down by Muslims
Remember it has been over thirty years since a black newspaper reporter has been killed investigating a story, this is rare. We all should be scared, worried, and on watch for all Muslim activities. They need to prove their legitimacy and their willingness to live in a civilized society; it is not the duty of the rest of us to "presume" their tolerance until proved otherwise.
That is how the courts work and will work for the Muslim assassin; it is not how a civilized society works.

Researchers are investigating whether a simple eye test could be used to identify the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
A three-year £1.1 million project will look at whether warning signs can be detected using special computer software to analyse high-definition images of the eye.
Evidence suggests that changes in the patterns of ocular veins and arteries can be linked to other disease such as stroke and cardiovascular disease.
A team at the University of Dundee’s school of computing have developed the software – known as Vampire – with colleagues at the University of Edinburgh.
Project co-ordinator Emanuele Trucco, professor of computational vision at the University of Dundee,.”
Researchers will compare measurements of thousands of images with medical histories stored at Dundee’s Ninewells Hospital to see if a relationship can be established.
Mr Trucco said: “When changes occur in some parts of the body, you can see differences in the retinal vessels, e.g. in width, some vessels become thinner; some become larger; differences in the tortuosity, or how wriggly the vessels become; there are also differences in the angles when vessels split in two.
“These measurements can indicate a huge amount but to take them by hand is an extremely time-consuming, tedious process.
“The Vampire software interface allows researchers to take these measures repeatedly, reliably, and efficiently even when working with a large number of images.”
The Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC) has funded the project as part an £8 million investment in research at 11 UK universities..”

Philips is soon set to launch a fantastic line of Android Powered Smart Televisions. The Android Televisions will be joining the ranks of other Smart TVs that are revolutionizing the home entertainment scene.
The Smart Televisions will come with some key Google Services pre-installed, all in an attempt to bring a touch of the Smartphone experience to your living room. The Smart TVs will have access to the Google Play Store and Google voice search.
This comes just after the internet went crazy about the Phillips Smartphone with a standby time of over two months. In addition to the access to Google Play, the Smart TV will come with a number of optimized Android Apps out of the box.
An access to Google Play is a big deal as you can turn your Television into the ultimate entertainment hub with just a couple of app installs. The Smart TV’s will also come with native gaming capabilities. This will be in terms of a powerful Quad-core CPU and a remote control that can double up as a wireless game controller.
Philips will pre-load Android games such as Real Racing 3 & Badland on the Smart TV. More optimized Games and Applications will be made available for the Smart TVs soon after its launch. The best part of it all is that some of the Smart TVs will come with a 4K resolution.
There is no info on the pricing of the Smart TVs, but if we could speculate a figure, we could be looking something of well above half a million Kenyan shillings [Yeah, that’s what Kenyan ballers are paying for those babes].

It has been unseasonably warm here and I am loving it. The dogs are enjoying it also, although they don't seem to mind the cold as long as they aren't left out in it for to long. We have an area fenced just out the back door that runs across the whole length of the back of the house. When the weather is warm we leave the door open and the guys can go in and out as they please. The flies haven't discovered just how warm it is yet but I am sure we will be putting up a screen door with a doggie door on the bottom when they do. I miss our friends in Tularosa and Alamogordo and have been making more trips down there ( 4 hour drive ) lately. My husband just came back today from a visit and brought two wooden bookcases that one of our friends made for us. He was a carpenter before he retired and does super work. My husband brings the furniture back au naturel and stains and varnishes it at our house. We are gradually replacing some of our old second hand tables and bookcases with nice wooden ones that will be going back to Florida with us. We still have a balloon closing date of Sept. '09 and hopefully everything will go according to plan. I really miss the green plants and grass and especially the water. I guess when you grow up on the East coast and spend your summers at the beach it is difficult to adjust to mountains and brown dust all the time. At least it is for me. Everyone keep those fingers crossed...................

In addition to the places mentioned here, the restaurant at The Inn at Robert's Grove is consistently top notch. On the other end of the spectrum, Wendy's (tel. 523-3335) is a popular, low-key spot serving excellent Belizean, Mexican, and international fare, located on the main road, at the southern end of town, almost by the pier.
Finally, as you wander around town in the heat of the day, be sure to stop in at Tutti Frutti Ice Cream Shop for some fresh, homemade ice cream or gelato. Tutti Frutti is in the on the main road in the Placencia Village Square shopping center, across from the soccer field. Daisy's, located on the main road near the center of town, also serves up fresh, homemade ice cream, as well as breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.
There are also several grocery stores in the village, in case you want to put together a picnic lunch.

In addition to concerts, games, and sidewalk booths hawking all sorts of goods and treats, you'll be able to sample everything from lobster fritters to lobster quiche to lobster bisque and beyond. If it can be made with lobster, you'll probably find it here. The Placencia Lobster Festival is held in late June each year; for more information and exact dates, contact the Placencia Information Center (tel. 523-4045;).

One of those nights where you're second best in every pot at showdown, and every decision you make is wrong. You play pot control and they spike a winner. Play it fast into a monster. Three bet light and watch them 4 bet shove. Two pair vs. a donk holding a set. Miss every fucking pocket pair, or hit a couple and watch everyone fold. Lose money with AKs, with AKo, witih QQ (dealt QQ eight times, saw a flop 5 times, lost all 5). JJ (saw flop 3 times, lost 2). KQ hits top pair vs. AQ, half a stack gone.
3 buy-ins gone in 850 hands.
I really want to get better, but I'm not sure how at this point. I signed up for a PokerTracker database analysis, but the guy looks like he's either swamped with work or lost interest - I can't get on his schedule. I thought about signing up for CardRunners or Deuces Cracked - but I have like 1-2 hours per night to dedicate to poker. If I spend every night watching training videos, when will I play? If I try to play and watch at the same time, won't I just donk off more money as I watch the video, or miss half the video as I get into postflop hands?
I'm running just over 1 BB/100 now after 27,000 hands. That SUCKS. And that's after moving down in stakes, too. I'm not happy with it, I'm not happy with the way I'm playing. I know I can get better, because I have no ego. I know I'm making a million mistakes, I know it's not just runbad. I need help, I want help, so HEEEEELP!!!

Didn't you mention that you were getting coaching from Split Suit as well?
Are you posting hands anywhere for discussion, like at 2+2 or back at the Academy? (I know the answer for PA.)
One of my favourite quotes is from BarryG when he said that many internet poker players log many, many thousands of hands....but in essence they're practicing a bad golf swing. I'd suggest DC - I believe TheDeuce is a member there and he highly recommends it. When i have time for poker again, i plan to sign up.

Granulators
Granulators – the ideal technology for the concept of several machines in a line or for use as a single machine – especially for plants for effective recovery of reusable waste. The efficient gate shears principle guarantees the defined size reduction of various materials in a single pass. Tires, cables or electronic scrap (WEEE), aluminium, shredder light fraction (SLF), oil filters, etc.
Rotor and stator are equipped with high quality solid knives. The material is cleanly sheared off between rotor and stator – a defined granulate is formed by the perforated sieves mounted below the rotor. The highly efficient gate shears principle works with very small cutting gaps – a precondition for optimal performances and best separation of materials.
Different variants of the equipment for the gate shears principle allow the preparation of a variety of different granulates, depending on the material. Owing to their solid construction, the granulators from ERDWICH have extremely long service lives.Quality makes the point.
Proven granulator technology which pays off:
- Knives made of high-quality shears steel
- Highest precision due to smallest cutting gaps up to <0,1 mm
- Ideal disposition of rotor and stator for optimal separation results with varying materials
- Knives fourfold reversible on rotor and stator, easy to replace
- Supplement for wear within the cutting system
- Patented protection system relating to the cutting gear being blocked by foreign materials
- Quickly replaceable perforated sieve/grid system
- Very heavy duty, torsion resistant housing construction
- Throughput rates of up to 10 to/h
- Electric or hydraulic drives with rotation speed control

Boston police arrested two men and recovered an illegal firearm and drugs from a vehicle in South Boston on Tuesday afternoon.
Christian Baez, 26, of Dorchester and Wilden D. Suazo, 29, of Mattapan were arrested and charged with unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, unlawfully carrying a loaded firearm, unlawful possession of a large capacity feeding device, and possession with intent to distribute a Class D drug (marijuana), according to a press release on bpdnews.com.
Police said Baez and Suazo were seen driving around in a red vehicle that appeared to be circling around the vicinity of D Street over the course of 2½ hours.
After pulling the vehicle over, officers noticed that one of them had a rolled-up ski mask in his pocket and there were vodka nips in the glove box of the vehicle, police said.
Police reported that they “continued to nervously glance” at a backpack in the backseat of the car, and when the officers patted the backpack, they felt what they believed to be a firearm inside.
Police said they recovered a loaded black semi-automatic firearm from the backpack as well as two clear plastic bags what they believed to be marijuana, along with a digital scale, a box of clear plastic sandwich bags, a pair of scissors, a ledger, and over $2,200.Emily Sweeney can be reached at esweeney@globe.com.

How To Find Great Examples Of Compare And Contrast Essays
Writing a compare and contrast essay is quite an interesting and easy task. If you think this is not true, then take a moment to think about research papers, term papers, literature analysis, dissertation proposals, and thesis projects. These assignments are much more complicated and tough to attempt relative to a comparison essay. It is the kind of assignment where you need to think of two objects, places, ideas, theories or personalities and then write down their similarities and differences. You can also pick a same subject and discuss its pros and cons with your audience.
The example for the former style will be a comparison between urban and rural life. This is where you need to represent both lifestyles and define them to the reader. After that, you should be able to list down what they have in common and what are the differences between the two. Use concrete examples, strong logic and supporting evidence to help the reader understand your point
The example for latter style would be the benefits and drawbacks of technological advancements. You can also pick any one of the latest technological innovation and discuss its impacts. Introduce your topic in the first paragraph and focus the body of your essay to talk about advantages and disadvantages respectively. Make sure to keep each body paragraph unique in content and idea both
To have a clear understanding of a comparison essay, it is better that you find a complete example and read it thoroughly to use as a guideline for your paper. If you are already on the hunt for good examples for your comparison essay then you landed to the right place.
The first thing you need to have is the set of instructions or requirements by your teacher and your own ideas for the paper.

Well, as we begin a new week (and a step closer to the Christmas holidays) I am happy to report that the Q is much, much better! Husband and I, however, are not so fortunate. We have all fallen like dominoes, and so forgive me if this post is a bit scatterbrained!
First, a lost set of photos from the fall which I just happen to like, because they are so typical of Q's unique style (and also because it is very nearly this warm now here on the Front Range of the Rockies, so it's not so very different! We continue to have a very mild winter, and could definitely use any excess snow that anyone cares to send us for the Holidays! winkwink Even a flake or two will do!)
We have been hearing about these murals second-hand for years now, and honestly weren't sure whether to believe in their existence or not. So it was a bit of a delight to finally see them in person.
They were in a difficult spot to photograph - at least in overcast winter light - but oh, was it a thrill to see my father's early style so eloquently wrought, and so close at hand!
These small murals were made a very, very long time ago, when my late father was very, very young. He was early in his career as an artist, and working side by side with his first wife-to-be (I think that they were so young as to not be married yet) when they made these paintings. I'm guessing that they were made in the early to mid 1940s, either under the WPA initiative or the lesser-known "Section of Fine Arts".
On the opposite wall from these shown are two panels by his soon-to-be first wife, Jennie Magafan, who died tragically of a stroke in her early 20s.
I think that they probably painted these murals at a very young age, before they were married, in their late teens or early 20s, while still apprenticed to famed Colorado artist Frank Mechau, so it's kind of amazing to have seen these paintings in person.
There are very few of these "new deal" murals still in evidence, and it's hard to know how long they will last before some of these buildings are scraped or refurbished, so we made sure to photograph them in detail, along with the signatures. Here is my dad's signature as a very, very young man, back when he still called himself "Ed Chavez". Later in his career, when he became a Fulbright scholar, and was shown in many major museums in the US and Europe, he signed his paintings as "Edward Chavez". How strange it is to see this handwriting of his as a very young man, just at the outset of his illustrious career.
And finally...what's going on in my own studio, where the latest art doll - my Little Mermaid - has been completed, along with her hand-illustrated pen and ink background of stormy seas.
4 comments:
Glad Q is well again, sorry you and your husband are sick now.
I love your father's WPA artwork. It's such a rich slice of the time it was created in.
San Francisco has WPA murals in Coit Tower and in a bar/restaurant on the Great Highway, across from Sutro's. I haven't been there in over 30 years, but I did read that the bar was completely remodeled several years ago murals intact.
So happy Q is feeling better, I hope you will too soon.
The paintings are beautiful...
And your latest creations Maia are incredible! Congratulations!
I had no idea your father was such a famous artist. What an amazing legacy.
Maia I hope you and Mike feel better soon. I love your father's work, everytime you expose us to it, I am in awe all over again. You have two very talented parents it is evident you inherited their talents. Your dolls, along with your other artwork will become a collector's item through the years. Exquisite.

SkyWalker Property, TSW Alliance Partner on East Texas Investment
ARLINGTON, Texas – SkyWalker Property Partners and TSW Alliance LLC have acquired the majority of ready-to-build lots in a 300-acre golf course community on the shores of Lake Bellwood in East Texas.
The 18-acre acquisition in Tyler’s Cascades of Texas consists of 87 residential lots situated within walking distance of the development’s well-appointed clubhouse, full-service spa and fitness club, swimming pool, tennis courts, marina and boat house. The Cascades Country Club features several dining venues, both fine dining and casual, and event spaces that can accommodate large banquets to intimate gatherings.
To kick off the investment, the partners will begin construction immediately on several spec houses in partnership with a local homebuilder. Finished homes will be tailored to today’s marketplace, featuring designs from 2,100 sf to 3,000 sf with price points from $300,000 to $650,000. The oversized lots will be sold for $55,000 to $150,000 in the retail market.
The Cascades’ five-star amenity package has thrived in recent years despite lagging lot sales – an opportunity that caught the eye of Arlington, Texas-based SkyWalker Property, a recognized investor in value-add and distressed deals. Its partner, TSW principal Todd White, is well-versed in destination resorts and communities, having once overseen a multibillion-dollar portfolio of exclusive developments coast to coast. The 87 lots were acquired from Cascades of Tyler Homes JV.
White has family living in Tyler so he’s quite familiar with the market, so much so that he’s been scouting for commercial investments in the city for the past year. He sourced the deal and then took it to his longtime friend, Gary Walker, principal of SkyWalker Property and managing partner of Hangover Opportunity Fund, which has invested in 13 commercial properties with a total capitalization of $24.4 million in the past three years in its bid to build a $100 million portfolio of commercial properties in Texas and surrounding states.
“I’ve always had a desire to invest in multifamily and single-family properties. This is a business I know really well although this is a one-off venture for TSW Alliance,” White says. “There is a supply-demand imbalance in Tyler, which has just a handful of available lots and only a few with amenities.”
As the seat of Smith County, Tyler is the manufacturing, health care, educational and retail center of East Texas. The 49.4-square mile city gained close to 2,000 residents from 2010 to 2011, with the population currently hovering 99,000 and steadily climbing.
Located off Loop 323 just minutes from the downtown, the Cascades of Texas is bookended by two lakes and features majestic stands of oaks and pines. Its 7,142-yard, par 71 championship course, which underwent a multimillion-dollar restoration in 2002, is considered the finest golf club in East Texas. The property is managed by Austin-based Touchstone Golf Services.

This months theme was Myths and Monsters and I had made a prediction on the book; I was correct! The box wasn't inspired by any specific YA novels, but they did suggest it for anyone who liked magic, fantasy, unicorns, Phoenixs and dragons, etc. This is most definitely a box intended me. I couldn't miss out on the anniversary edition either!
Once again there are purple curls all over the floor and I got things out in a hurry. The first item I got out was a set of fairylights! They're in the shape of unicorns and rainbows and are absolutely beautiful! They're battery powered which is brilliant, because I already have a set of electric ones wrapped around my bed. These, I plan on attaching to my book case somehow when I move house. I now have three sets of fairylights but these were so so different and interesting. They feature in quite a few pictures I've taken of the box today.
The next item was inspired by another mythical creature. It was a candle by a company called Geeky Clean and it was called Nephilm. It smells really sweet and I loved it. I'm now building up a collection of unused bookish candles, and against I am saving these for the new flat! Alongside the candle was a small pocket mirror, with a mermaid on (I know the picture of this is awful, but I was relying on my phone camera, I am sorry!)!
I came across another myth inspired item; a set of book marks! First of all I absolutely love this style of bookmark! There was a little dragon and a phoenix. This was easily one of my favourite items in this months box. I almost don't want to use them as I have a habit of carrying paperbacks around in my very full tote bags, even though I don't have time to read them that day.
My absolute favourite item? The scarf! It is grey and is patterned with dragon scales, and has the words 'Fairy Loot printed at the bottom! I've included it in the photos of the box as a whole, It is so light and absolutely beautiful. I think it looks like mermaid scales. But whether it be dragon scales, or mermaid scales it sure is gorgeous.
Okay, this months book was a little predictable but I am still absolutely thrilled. Fairy Loot provided me with a copy of Laini Taylor's Strange The Dreamer. Having just started her other series, beginning with A Daughter of Smoke and Bone I am very excited. I am twenty percent into A Daughter of Smoke and Bone and it is captivating. I am struggling to put it down at the moment! Strange The Dreamer will be the one I read after this, and I cannot wait. Expect full reviews of both books, guys! Oh and this editon of Strange The Dreamer is limited edition in the UK; with the edges of the pages being sprayed blue. It really is beautiful.
It has been a long day and I have just got home from a second trip to the cinema to see Beauty and the Beast. I have so much to do but really need to catch up on sleep so I can stop complaining about it here! Sorry guys!
Oh! On a side note; I now have a twitter! I have no idea what I'm doing with it yet but I'm sure I will sort it out soon. Feel free to head over there and follow me! I attempted to be funny and sound clever at the same time. Turns out I am neither, and am still clueless with regard to Twitter. Tips are welcome!
I'm working on a post about self love/care at the moment, too. So you can look forward to that in the next few days. For now, I am returning to my forum post assignment before bed.
Good night guys, have a good week!

This is a guest post by our dear friend, Robin Koerner, Founder of the “Art of Political Persuasion“. Learn more about Robin Koerner by going to. He also runs WatchingAmerica.com and he is a British permanent resident of the United States.
***Editor’s Note: Those of you who are long time Liberty First students will recognize the Glorious Revolution as a very important part of the foundation of our Constitution. If you missed that part of our Liberty First training, you can learn more through my book, Not A Living Breathing Document or by scheduling me to teach your group, no speaking fees charged, by contacting me here: . Now Let’s Get Educated!
When the United States began, the tradition in which it was founded was already 762 years old.
As I wrote recently in celebration of this magnificent anniversary, those who would protect freedom in our country badly scupper themselves by their ignorance of history, and there is perhaps no greater obstacle to our understanding of the history that matters than our founding myth.
America was born as a liberty-protecting Republic in opposition to a tyrannical monarchy, so the story goes. While more and more Americans are (thankfully) beginning to see the myriad travesties against our liberty that are being performed by our governing elite as threatening our very identity as a nation that exists to defend natural, unalienable and individual rights, we are all doing very much less well at seeing quite how deeply the founding purpose of our country has been subverted.
Because we “know” that not only are we not a monarchy Constitutionally, but also that our very existence is owed to its denial as a morally decadent institution, we cannot possibly admit the truth about what we have let our country become: America is now a monarchy.
Monarchy has a simple meaning – the “rule of one”. As Alexander Hamilton correctly said, “‘monarch’ is an indefinite term. It marks not either the degree or duration of power”. The fact that our king is elected for four years, then, does not change his status as a monarch.
In America today, the President can sign executive orders such as E.O.. Power only ever drives in one direction.) The Executive has also claimed the authority to strike militarily countries that do not threaten our own, without a supporting vote in the House, and even to kill American citizens without any independent legal process. It also works with its agents, again without the express approval of the people’s representatives or, certainly, the knowledge of the people themselves, to receive by covert means the most private details of our lives..
This year marks the 1,000th anniversary of political liberty..
Im with you. the right of revolution was designed for this purpose and the time is now

NL’s royal treatment led ‘King’ to throne
At Sunday night’s Academy Awards, when the opened envelop revealed that “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King” had just won adapted screenplay — its ninth award of the evening — New Line Cinema’s Rolf Mittweg, president and chief operating officer of worldwide marketing and distribution, and Russell Schwartz, president of domestic theatrical marketing, knew that was the defining moment. “We just looked at each other incredulously,” Schwartz says.

I dyed my hair last night. It's hard to say what I think of it just yet. I had been thinking of dying my hair to get rid of some of the gray, then the thoughts went to "well, I could just punch up the colour a bit", and the results are definitely punched. Or just punch. The colour came out a lot more red than I expected it and it's just very different altogether. One good thing about my hair is that I can abuse it, and it will be fine -- so if I find in the next couple of days that this colour just does not suit, I'll dye it again.
At this moment I'm not really concerned about the cost. $13 is cheap, cheap, cheap for a woman's hair.

“?”
If you respond by mentioning films like the operatic period drama The Immigrant or the cerebral, abstracted sci-fi of Under The Skin or the warm teenage Swedish punk-rock coming-of-age story We Are the Best! you are met by pretty quizzical stares, as if you somehow misheard the question. Because the underlying subject of these questions is which of the year-end prestige releases, with all their signifiers of quality and waves of hype pulled along by the tides of awards season, should be “in the conversation” right now.
Among the many anomalies that make the 12-years-in-the-making Boyhood such a genuinely unique object is that it is a movie released in July that many people still seem interested in talking about now that it’s November.
Maybe it’s obvious to say so, but the movie year is, just like a regular one, 12 months long. There’s no need to truncate what gets remembered and celebrated and just plain seen because of the sometimes-arbitrary realities of release dates.
Would James Gray’s The Immigrant — with powerful performances by Marion Cotillard, Joaquin Phoenix and Jeremy Renner, set in New York City in 1920s — be more in the conversation (or have done better business) if it were released in the second half of the year and not the first? The movie is the movie regardless — and it’s great.
And all of this is not even to make the case that any of these films from earlier this year are necessarily the best of 2014 — seriously, I for one cannot get my brain around year-end best-of lists just yet. But they certainly deserve to be remembered or at the very least not forgotten. Anyone who says this has been a weak year or that there isn’t anything exciting happening in cinema right now has simply been watching the wrong movies.
The dynamic performances by Tessa Thompson and Teyonah Parris in Dear White People will likely send one rushing to look up their credits online, only to discover they each have a long list of previous credits. You have likely seen them both before but never taken notice of them in quite this way. Both Jenny Slate in Obvious Child and Gugu Mbatha-Raw in Belle turned in exhilarating performances that jumped off the screen in roles they were seemingly born to play.
Emily Blunt similarly grabbed a movie with both hands and made it all her own with her performance in Edge of Tomorrow, apparently retitled with its advertising tagline “Live Die Repeat” for post-theatrical platforms. It seems odd to talk about a big-budget sci-fi Tom Cruise movie as underseen, but that’s apparently the world we live in now.
Listen Up Philip is an examination of ego and ambition in a young male writer played by Jason Schwartzman, yet the story also pays close attention to the emotional life of his girlfriend, played by Elisabeth Moss. (Who was also great this year in the inside-out relationship comedy The One I Love, a subset of the subset of underappreciated movies.) In what is simply one of the year’s finest moments of screen acting, the camera in “Philip” holds on Moss after a breakup and the cascading series of emotions silently moving across her face, from wounded defeat to hopeful elation, is a marvel to witness and not to be missed.
Perhaps not surprisingly, the grand dame/patron saint of the overlooked/not-to-be-missed movie this year is Tilda Swinton, who appeared in Snowpiercer, The Grand Budapest Hotel and Only Lovers Left Alive. All three roles, respectively as a dystopian political functionary, a willful, bawdy dowager, and a bohemian vampire, are playful and witty and reveal themselves to have emotional depths that might not be apparent on first glance.
For myself, my mind often turns back to Philippe Garrel’s Jealousy, an intimate drama about a couple starring Anna Mouglalis and the filmmaker’s son, Louis Garrel. The film is haunting, a spare black-and-white elegy for the naivete of early romance and the difficult realities of making it work. Like the works of Antonioni, I find that Philippe Garrel is a filmmaker I am maturing into, his films revealing their layers to me over time.
And then of course there is the year’s most inspiring film, the documentary Jodorowsky’s Dune, about how the failure of cult filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky to realize his Hollywood adaptation of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi novel Dune in the 1970s was in fact no failure at all but rather another a path to a different kind of success. While interviewing the 85-year-old Jodorowsky this year, he gave me a Tarot reading over the phone from Paris, a personal and professional highlight. Do I remember the movie more fondly because of that? Perhaps? Does it really matter? Perhaps not.
Once you start looking, the overlooked start revealing themselves, like woodland creatures emerging from their natural camouflage. There’s the wild Indonesian action film-slash-crime-drama The Raid 2, or the pair of performances by Jesse Eisenberg in Night Moves and The Double, each unnerving in a different way. Then there is the quiet, crystalline beauty and dry humor of Pawel Palikowski’s Ida.
Cold In July is a crime thriller so unassuming in its low-key pleasures that I keep needing to remind myself about it and then wonder how I could forget a movie smart enough to pair Sam Shepard and Don Johnson. And, of course, leering in the corner like some creepy random at a party is Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac in all its various volumes. It’s a movie that’s either brilliant or dumb, most likely thrillingly both.
Many of these forget-me-not films are already available on home video and video-on-demand platforms, so it’s possible to see them now even if you missed them earlier in the year. It’s a frequent saying — or at least something I find myself saying to myself a lot — that there are too many movies. But the unspoken modifier is that there are too many good movies, and so it is always easy to feel that you’ve fallen behind.
I’m sure I’m overlooking something myself here too, but don’t you make the same mistake.
So, yes, let this be a plea and a reminder to fellow critics, journalists, compilers of lists, awards voters of all stripes and just anyone who watches movies to look past the current corridor of prestige releases and remember one simple idea: The year is 12 months long.

The Rangers must manage the innings of their valuable young pitchers: must take all precautions to protect their health. A 22 year old arm is far more vulnerable than a 25 year old arm.
Innings must be built up gradually. As a loose rule, you don't want a young pitcher to increase his season's workload by more than 50 innings above his previous year's output.
Therefore, in 2010, the Rangers ought open the season with Hunter, Holland, Feliz, and Harrison in a 4 man bullpen rotation. When Hunter, Holland, Feliz, or Harrison came into a game, they would typically pitch 2 or 3 innings. If they were pitching well, and thus keeping their pitch count under 50 or so, then Hunter, Holland, Feliz, or Harrison would go ahead and close out the game. Such would be invaluable training. If Hunter, Holland, Feliz, or Harrison had pitched effectively in the 7th and/or 8th innings, there would be every chance that they could close out the 9th inning as effectively as Wilson or Francisco could. Hunter, Holland, Feliz, and Harrison have a full complement of pitches at their disposal. They are trained to go through line-ups more than once.
Francisco, Wilson, and O'Day could fill in when the 4 man Relief Rotation was unable to close out a game with excellence. Each of the 4 man Relief Rotation would typically pitch 2 or 3 innings, then not pitch again for 4 or 5 days (depending on off days). This would protect health while providing valuable pitching experience. Here's how it would look on Opening Day 2010:
5 Man Starting Rotation (pitches 5-8 innings per game):
Feldman
Millwood
McCarthy
Nippert
Mathis
4 Man Bullpen Rotation (pitches 1-4 innings per game):
Hunter
Holland
Feliz
Harrison
As a bonus: Hunter, Holland, Feliz, Harrison would be competing with each other to earn mid season slots in the 5 man Starting Rotation. Competition sharpens.
Down the stretch and into the playoffs, the Rangers would have hard throwing young pitchers both rested and firing away in a 5 man Starting Rotation which might look like this:
Feldman
Millwood
Holland
Feliz
Hunter
3 comments:
That really makes sense and as an "all time" Ranger fan, I'd love to see something like that put into effect.
Whatever is going to work, I am for. I hope the Rangers get out of a "Cubs" mentality and change things where they can take a legitimate run for the big dance.
emjay,
great minds think alike.
dusty,
"Cubs mentality"? Do you mean settling for not making the playoffs? Or overspending for Soriano and Milton Bradley, et al?
I might write, maybe Fri or Sat, about whether the Rangers ought empty some minor league talent and go for it now, or whether they ought hold tight with what they have for ooone mooore seeaason.

Keith Oberman sues Al Gore's Current TV for Wrongful Termination -- Olbermann Broadcasting Empire v. Current TV, LLC
Political commentator Keith Olbermann was recently terminated from Current TV, a start-up political network backed by Al Gore. The well-publicized termination involved allegations of not showing up for work and being generally insufferable.
Olbermann has now filed his own wrongful termination complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court, alleging that Current TV breached the contract first due to its incompetent production of his show. The gist of his theory is captured in the opening paragragh: industry executives.
Oddly, while the Complaint is supposedly premised on Current TV's breach of contract, it fails to allege any specific facts establishing the formation of a valid contract, the terms of the contract, or how the alleged conduct (if true) would have been a breach of any particular contract term.
Olbermann's attorneys undoubtedly realize this makes the lawsuit legally defective on its face. So the omissions probably stem from one of two reasons, either: (a) the Parties have struck an agreement to keep the contract out of the public record to avoid embarrassment; or (b) the Complaint is not really intended not as a serious legal pleading but more of a lengthy press release (which is immune from defamation liability as a public filing).

Why being a change leader in BioPharma is different
Our industry is in the midst of disruptive renewal. BioPharma executives and managers need to be Change Leaders. But leading change in BioPharma involves some additional challenges. Robert Thong highlights these challenges and suggests some key pointers for Change Leaders in pharmaphorum’s leadership and talent management themed month.
BioPharma industry in midst of renewal – change leaders to the fore
The BioPharma industry is at a critical juncture in its evolution. “Innovating” a patent-protected molecule is no longer enough, we must demonstrate sustainable added value to the healthcare system i.e. real innovation that takes customer benefit to the next level. The Payer is now king and the Patient has an increasingly louder voice. At the same time, R&D productivity has been declining for many years despite huge investments by the industry.
But opportunities also abound! The Baby Boomer generation has become the well-informed chronic illness generation. Rapid growth in emerging economies is driving spending power and chronic disease incidence. Continuing technological advances provide better diagnostic and treatment possibilities. Open Innovation is no longer a buzzword but a rapidly-evolving reality.
BioPharma companies are renewing their business models for this new world. Being a Change Leader is now a critical and in-demand skill in BioPharma. As a starting point, BioPharma Change Leaders can draw many lessons from the classic change management literature (for example Kotter’s frequently-quoted Harvard Business Review article). Increasingly however, the classic approach on its own is not enough for BioPharma today, especially bearing in mind the “new paradigm” nature of the opportunities and problems that our industry now needs to address. So why is this the case?
“Open Innovation is no longer a buzzword but a rapidly-evolving reality.”
What’s different today
Many of our industry’s historically successful change initiatives took place within established business models – ideal for leveraging benchmarking, best practices, gap analysis, metrics, process re-engineering and many other classic tools for change. However we have now entered an age where we have to re-invent our traditional paradigms in R&D, Commercial and Supply Chain. Such opportunities and challenges have no “standard” solutions; more than likely, each organization will have to derive its own bespoke solutions based on its unique combination of capabilities, assets, market situation and culture.
In the new BioPharma world, the greatest performance improvements are often needed where teams of scientists and professionals from multiple disciplines collaborate to solve complex problems with no pre-defined solutions. To develop and implement the new business models needed, these “knowledge workers” have to synthesize their expertise across disciplines, engage external constituencies (partner companies, suppliers, payers, patient advocacy groups) and apply judgment in their teams to create integrated solutions. Superior performance and eventually improved business outcomes are thus the direct result of creative thinking, internal cross-disciplinary teamwork and insightful interactions with external constituencies. Hence the key to making sustainable high impact change in BioPharma is to lead change effectively with knowledge workers, bearing in mind their unique characteristics.
Leading change with biopharma knowledge workers
Change Leaders need to bear five key principles in mind when designing and leading strategic change efforts with BioPharma knowledge workers:
(1) Communicate an inspiring purpose and change rationale
Knowledge workers need to know the broader significance and implications of their work. They perform best when they feel a sense of ownership for their organization’s mission and strategy, and how their work contributes to it. They often need a higher purpose than just conventional business goals. “Increasing shareholder value” will often not cut ice with them as the key underlying aim. Nor will typical “burning platform” threats like an impending patent cliff. Such messages might trigger short-term cost savings, but they will not motivate knowledge workers in the medium-to-long term to change how they invent new products, secure market access and increase product uptake after launch.
“…the key to making sustainable high impact change in BioPharma is to lead change effectively with knowledge workers…”
(2) Frame the right challenges
Most major change efforts are broken down into several manageable initiatives, each with a clearly defined strategic challenge. Change leaders should beware of some classic pitfalls when defining these challenges and setting up their corresponding initiatives e.g. separating initiatives by department or scientific function, or by type of financial impact (grow revenue, reduce cost, increase asset value), or by business discipline (“strategy”, “operations”, “HR”). The real world’s problems and opportunities do not come nicely packaged like this. The best solutions often arise from creativity at the intersections of how people normally see things. Change leaders should focus on those cross-functional processes where most value is generated. They should emphasize effectiveness and new value creation, not just efficiency. And each initiative should combine “strategy”, “people” and “process” aspects. Knowledge workers thrive on challenge and mastery – we need not be afraid to set them a tough problem!
(3) Empower the organization to find its own solutions
Knowledge workers value their autonomy and need to have a significant say in what they do and especially how they do it. They are demotivated by seeing their work reduced to a series of checklists, boxes and arrows. And attempts to micro-manage or re-engineer the details of how they work are often counter-productive. They need to be genuinely and heavily involved in defining the solutions. Beware of a top-down process which prescribes solutions for them!
(4) Form the right diverse teams, leveraging the middle of the organization
Tackling each specific strategic challenge requires a carefully-selected team with the appropriate diversity of ingredients (perspectives, skills, knowledge, external networks) that combined, will lead to a superior outcome. Change leaders should beware of assembling a team just around the obvious senior problem owners, experts and representative political constituencies. It is also important to engage especially the middle managers and the mid-career scientists who have energy and fresh ideas.
“This means that team members not only contribute what they know and can do individually, but also push each other’s thinking…”
(5) Manage co-creative collaboration in the teams
To maximize the potential from the teams, it is necessary to engender and manage synergetic interactions between the team members that lead to solutions which are “more than the sum of the parts”. This means that team members not only contribute what they know and can do individually, but also push each other’s thinking, working at the intersections of each other’s know-how, to “co-create” superior solutions together. This approach is more likely to generate innovative differentiated solutions that enable sustainable competitive advantage.
Leading change with knowledge workers is tricky. Their motivation, engagement and commitment matter immensely for superior performance – value is generated from their creativity, energy and teamwork. Much thought thus needs to be given to how to involve them and keep them energized and engaged throughout the change process.

I think that's the motive people have in general when trying to change norms (graffiti shouldn't be acceptable, sunbathing topless should be acceptable, etc) but in a huge society where a single person's preferences are negligible, the main channel where that has influence is in law. Laws and norms are obviously tightly intertwined and both influence each other, and there are some interesting studies showing that, but my personal interest is in non-legal, spontaneous-order-type mechanisms. But perhaps by limiting my attention to that I'm missing a bigger picture... power structures certainly seem extremely relevant even when they are not formalized.<br /><br />But going back to organizations and smaller societies (which I guess are usually organizations with at least some degree of formality - homeowners associations, churches, clubs) a single person's preferences most definitely aren't negligible anymore, and then as you say influence will matter very much. I do think about norms with fundamentally different transmission mechanisms but I have to agree that thinking about norms as organizational decisions in an extreme case is very interesting...Vera L. te Velde it come to such, the individual involve is le...When it come to such, the individual involve is let to make such decision by themselves.King's interesting you described "don't...It's interesting you described "don't pick up hitchhikers" as a heuristic for dealing with uncertainty and limited information, as that norm has changed. Before around 1960 or 1970 hitchhikers were more common and more likely to be picked up. I'm sure a part of the change has to do with fear, and stories about bad experiences with hitchhiking predominating over stories about good experiences. The change became permanent when any story about good hitchhiking experiences raised the question, why was the protagonist hitchhiking. Other norms change due to fear also. Intense passenger scrutiny at the airport came from fear of murderous hijackers, while earlier in commercial aviation hijacking was considered a rare inconvenience. Some norms change while overcoming fears. Attitudes about homosexuality changed despite the fear based heuristic "don't tell strangers about your homosexual tendencies"Craig Vera, I thought more about this. Forgive me pus...Hi Vera,<br />I thought more about this. Forgive me pushing it further, but I think there is a tendency in some of the above comments to think about norms like memes -- as if they are ideas that spread neutrally from a source based on some transmission mechanism.<br />But if you think about changes to norms within an organisation, they are typically the product of people intentionally trying to enforce their own preferences. A group of graphic designers might think "We need to stop swearing in front of clients" or "We need an affirmative action hiring policy". Others in the firm will think "Don't be so uptight" or "No, we don't". Everyone has the usual 'exit, voice or loyalty' options, and depending on who has influence and who is prepared to use it, things will either change or they won't. If a group of trainees think "Stop swearing" and the CEO thinks "Don't be so uptight", we can guess whose preferences will prevail. If the organisation is a family or a school we can guess that the collective decisions will be resolved in favour of the adults, and resistance by the kids will be costly.<br />Explaining the initial preferences seems difficult (eg the kimonos!) but explaining which preferences prevail seems like it might be more fruitful.<br />So a question for you...<br />You say the big question is "Which cooperative norms are chosen to be enforced and how does this come about?". <br />Someone else might pose it differently. They might say: "How do we make collective decisions within an organisation?" -- and propose that the answer (once we have it!) can be applied to organisational norms as a particular case, and then extended to societies, as very big organisations.<br />What do you feel is the advantage of your phrasing?<br />Re-reading your previous answer, I think it is because you think the mechanism that changes norms between strangers on the street is fundamentally different (and perhaps fundamentally more important?) to the one that changes norms between staff in a café?Nathannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131923932037617792.post-83776860430647793192017-02-05T18:34:37.632-08:002017-02-05T18:34:37.632-08:00Nathan, yeah that interaction between society and ...Nathan, yeah that interaction between society and subsociety norms is an interesting question that I think deserves more attention exactly because it can say so much about how norms form. I suspect the mechanisms of norm transmission/establishment/enforcement/evolution are similar within society and organizations (but obviously different in way those mechanisms manifest, since the group size and structure etc are different) and in that sense understanding organizational culture is really useful for understanding culture overall, as smaller scale and variable testbeds essentially. But organizations also inherit norms from the societies they're embedded in, so I don't think you can make complete sense of a particular organization's norms without understanding the broader culture: There's lots of variability in all of the norms you suggested but they can't get *too* far from some societal mean, and they start off by default at the societal mean. E.g. some U.S. businesses shun ties and some require them but none require kimonos...Vera L. te Velde Vera, When you say 'culture' as the big...Hi Vera,<br />When you say 'culture' as the big unanswered question, how do you see 'organisational culture' within that?<br />I wonder if there is a 'micro versus macro' thing here?<br />If you walk into an organisation (eg start a new job), you always find a specific culture. There will be norms around what time to leave on a Friday, how much (if at all) to dissent in front of the boss, etc. And there will be a lot of things half-way between norms and collective decisions -- 'To what extent do people who work harder get promoted faster?', or 'To what extent do people who come in early tend to get promoted ahead of those who stay late?', 'How open are you with your colleagues?', 'How risk averse with new projects?', etc.<br />And of course every organisation has its take on the wearing of ties.<br />Do you think if we understood organisational culture, we would understand culture generally? <br />Or do you think it goes the other way? Organisational cultures are just tidal pools buffeted by bigger forces, and you have to understand broad 'culture' first to explain them?Nathannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131923932037617792.post-46179133163397163892017-02-02T17:43:25.101-08:002017-02-02T17:43:25.101-08:00Doug, yes absolutely, I also am working on indirec...Doug, yes absolutely, I also am working on indirect reciprocity a bit actually. This is definitely one of the enforcement mechanisms I was referencing when I said that the enforcement of cooperative norms is getting to be well understood :) The repeated game theory is very cool.Vera L. te Velde come to this topic as an anthropologist interest...I come to this topic as an anthropologist interested in kinship. One of the frequently noted things about kinship is that many societies have norms of "generalized reciprocity" which call for sharing with your kin, even when the beneficiaries can't reciprocate. You do this not so much because you care deeply about the person you're helping (the standard evolutionary biology theory of kin section governed by Hamilton's rule), but because you care about your reputation among others of your kin (this lets you beat Hamilton's rule).<br /><br />Here's an article where I do some of the math, including between-group selection of balanced reciprocity versus generalized reciprocity:<br /><br /> <br /><br />And a post from my blog:<br /><br /> Jones availability cascade?Which availability cascade?Vera L. te Velde! Did I just kill off an availability cascad...Whoops! Did I just kill off an availability cascade which could run and run?<br />windwheel'd have thought 'mirror neurons' woul...I'd have thought 'mirror neurons' would be relevant for co-ordination games. Mimetic effects rapidly spread out such that, for example, people appear to spontaneously 'keep left' or 'right' as the case may be. The question is- why have a distinction between norm and action?<br /> Perhaps the answer is that dis-coordination games have such great salience due to gender dimorphism wrt costs of reproduction in our species that 'pooling equilibria' have to be qualified and the system has to have some 'memory' or hysteresis.<br /> 'Identity'is a mix of cheap talk, featuring adherence or violation of norms, and some underlying structure of costly signals which establish a separating equilibrium. This permits a 'bourgeois strategy'- at least some people following the norm will enforce it rather than blink first in a game of chicken. Crucially, for this to occur, there has to be some notion of scarcity or imposed opportunity cost.<br /><br />I think this is what happens when some 'subaltern' agents furiously insist their peers adhere to a norm costly to themselves and not group adaptive at all. Typically, the person violating the norm is accused of reducing the amount of 'Purity' or 'Honour'or some such bogus abstraction during a supposedly cataclysmic time when the commodity is scarce. Perhaps there is a link between this sort of 'highly correlated thinking' and the historical development of complex social choice mechanisms or abstract financial markets.<br />The enforcers of'bourgeois strategy'type norms could gain a rent as 'market makers' bridging coordination and discoordination games or they could prefer to keep a threat point open for themselves for future use. This would make cake cutting even more difficult with the result that cakes become scarce or mythical like 'Purity'.<br />No doubt mine is a jaundiced view of 'traditional' economies or cultural constellations. Still, it seems, young people's mirror neurons light up when they see modernity and they vote with their feet against normative bourgeois strategies and infinitely complex cake cutting problems.<br />The actual historical bourgeoisie was actually quite Coasian thus permitting our liberal conception of norms as flexible and 'ethical' rather than grim and punitive Norns set over us by a remorseless Destiny.<br /><br /><br />windwheel: yes the fractional cultures we live in are...Briant: yes the fractional cultures we live in are really complicated compared to more traditional, isolated, and cohesive cultures - this is how I read Akerlof and Kranton's work on what they call "identity". Very interesting stuff.<br /><br />Frederik: Interesting, I didn't even know about that norm! That sounds like a coordination norm to me (avoiding a collision in return calls in which neither can get through, or a lack of any callback).<br /><br />Starcourse: You're absolutely right, I love the stuff Nowak works on but haven't read nearly enough of it :) Similar for Henrich actually, Roger, and I didn't know Hoffman so thanks for the heads up.<br /><br />Jd: I wish!<br /><br />John/dad: yeah it would be great if we could come up with some kind of universal grammar of norms. I would guess that the analogy with linguistics applies mostly to coordination norms (since language is a coordination problem) but I'd like to hear more detail sometime.Vera L. te Velde might pick up on Briant's mention of the bra...I might pick up on Briant's mention of the brain's role in norm building because it ties in with my own field: language and linguistics. In my research I work on the assumption that the brain is hardwired in certain ways (much of which is not yet well understood), mostly for language acquisition, but also for language use at all ages. Both language and the hard wiring of the brain play a significant role in norm formation: we do and say things in ways that can't be explained, that seem irrational sometimes, except from the standpoint of how the brain has been wired/programmed through evolutionary development. In language there are relations between parts of the sentence that follow language-specific parameters, which are obviously connected to the related culture in certain ways, but also to certain universals of language. So are there universals in the norms of human cultures? And can we state specific parameters of culture x vs. culture y? These probably have something to do with what norms are established in these cultures.JohnRaymond observations about changing negative "nor...Any observations about changing negative "norms" around domestic violence?

The world we now inhabit is no longer mono cultural or even multicultural, it’s fractional cultured.<br /><br />If you go back a few millennia, being part of a group was unquestionably key to your ability to survive long enough to procreate. Maintaining the integrity of the group was also key. An elevated status (authority, prestige, whatever) improved your odds for progeny. Key ways to maintain group cohesiveness would be to maintain fairness and provide clear cues in regard to achievement of status. (behavior, visual) <br />When hominids developed the requisite abilities for cultural evolution to take off, it was generally within the context of a single culture. Since individuals were always imbedded within a culture, many (most) of our cognitive abilities/behaviors are dependent on others for learning (mostly nonconscious) AND daily execution. Simplistically, our brains function under the ‘assumption’ that others will help fill in the blanks and keep us on track.<br /><br />Note that none of these abilities would require much in the way of language nor perhaps even consciousness as we now know it. Individual behavior would be driven by feelings.<br /><br />So to answer the question: some of the selection criteria for cooperative norms;<br /><br />appear to threaten group cohesion if violated, unfair<br />have visible cues<br />easy to take action, e.g. shout<br />threatens the status of some at the expense of others<br />require little or no conscious thought to observe or react to.Briant Wolfe: great example :) Ray: wouldn't tha...Anonymous: great example :)<br /><br />Ray: wouldn't that mean most pareto improving norms would spread very quickly? I think the trouble is that adopting a coordination norm requires coordinated action, so the analogy is with group selection rather than individual selection.Vera L. te Velde.

A large portion of society hated these people, but somehow we never coordinated or arranged to consistently express our preference. Then very quickly after the iPhone came out everyone began messaging and emailing instead of speaking. Very quickly a new norm emerged in which it was agreed to be rude to have a phone conversation in a line at Starbucks. I still don't know how the consensus was formed or communicated. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com

As people from several countries flocked to an international trade fair, Gospel for Asia-supported workers took the opportunity to share the Good News with them.
On October 2, seven GFA-supported Bible college students and three staff members went to the trade fair, carrying thousands of Gospel tracts. They handed these tracts to nearly every shopkeeper. Altogether, they distributed approximately 10,000 Gospel tracts!
Merchants from Bangladesh, Pakistan, Thailand and several states of India took part in the trade fair. Many people from Thailand responded positively when the students and staff shared about Jesus. Although some people from other countries harbored suspicion toward the missionaries at first, they opened up as the students shared the Good News, and they even asked them to pray for their businesses.
The missionaries involved in the event request prayer that the people who heard the Gospel message—especially the shopkeepers who asked for prayer—will choose to follow Jesus.

Although we are leaving in exactly 7 days, we still didn’t decide on our trip itinerary. Of course we thought about some options, like doing an East- to West-coast trip, or driving from South-East Canada along the Western coast of the US. Then again, we also would like to drive to New York and go up North from there on.
Even though we didn’t plan stuff yet, in my head I already imagined these trips like the ultimate road trip experience; just driving around in a car (or maybe even a camper), stopping every now and then in places that seem cool, and stay at camping sites or AirBnB’s. This kind of trip involves a lot of driving, but hey, I passed my license a few weeks ago for a reason.
Now, we don’t have a car here in Holland, so we only took car rides with our daughter Lucie a few times. That is until recently, because moving out of our current place involved borrowing my parents car and doing a few car trips. This is when we made an unpleasant discovery.
On one of our first moving trips, after only 10 minutes in the car, Lucie’s lunch that she had had an hour before came out. The poor thing had been crying those 10 minutes before, and now it was clear why (although we could have guessed by green color her face had turned).
Unfortunately it was not a one-time thing. She vomited 4 out of the 5 car trips we did recently (yes, I kept count), starting on average after 12 minutes of driving. Now just saying to her: “we are going to take the car now”, is enough to make her start crying hysterically.
Motion sickness. Great. Doing on average 2 or 3 hours of driving a day (with sometimes even longer drives) for half a year doesn’t really sound like the best idea now. My envision of driving in our camper on Route 66 while listening to some nice country music doesn’t go very well with the smell of vomit in the background.
Luckily we didn’t book anything yet, and we are staying at our family’s in Montreal the first part of our trip, so we have some time to figure out some alternatives like taking trains or taking some continental flights.
I guess that’s the first lesson for our trip; be flexible and don’t force things if they are not gonna work. Maybe we won’t have the road trip experience as I imagined, but I’m sure we can figure some other way to make this an amazing trip. I will keep you updated on our travel plans.

This outfit is actually from last Thursday when I got off work early and stopped by Goodwill Outlet. But Saturday's summery outfit seemed to go before Thursday's fall(y?) one. A long way of saying that I'm posting these outfits out of order!
Anyway, here's what I wore Thursday afternoon:
As you can see, I am slightly obsesssed with my new Target jeans I got on clearance the other day! They have such a great fit and are super comfortable too!
Josh and I had a great time at Busch Gardens yesterday, even though we had to wait in a long line of cars to get in. We also got to go to our favorite Williamsburg antique mall :)
I hope everyone's having a great long weekend, and I'll show you this weekend's finds this week :)
Always,
Amanda
I love the combo of the dark floral print and the 90s-esque sunglasses! Very cool!
Thanks! The rayon dress/shirt is super comfy too!
I want those sunnies!

LANSING, Mich. — A Michigan Senate committee approved bills Tuesday that will allow gun owners to carry concealed weapons in several gun-free zones, the Detroit Free Press reported.
>> Read more trending news
The bill would allow people to carry guns at schools, churches, day care centers, stadiums and bars.
The legislation comes on the heels of a mass shooting at a south Texas church Sunday that left 26 people dead and 20 more injured. That occurred a month after a mass shooting at an outdoor concert outside Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas..”.
"That’s the part that causes the schools to shut down and lose a day of educational experience for students, and that’s problematic," Meekhof said.
Gun-free zones should be called “mass murderer empowerment zones,” said.

The sustainable designs at Tent London, one of the major shows at the London Design Festival, were all about transformation. Designers from around the world took up components discarded by industry or consumers – from denim to plastic bottles – and crafted eco lighting and seating solutions. We could easily imagine living with these objects made from materials given new life.
The products we highlighted in our green designs preview of Tent London didn’t disappoint in person. Bernardita Marambio Design Studio’s stand, The Reliving Room, showcased developments in new manufacturing with vases made from strips of shampoo bottles and chairs made from fabric scraps. The sleek look of Kate Noakes’ furniture, refinished with tin inlaid in layers of gesso and pigment, belied their reclaimed nature.
Nature was another popular source for green materials. Sebastian Cox‘s airy chandeliers were composed of lanterns made of strips of wood shavings from hazel trees. Jess Shaw‘s fairy tale-like hanging light has a shade made of a plant called Old Man’s Beard.
Tent London was full of visitors looking for new ideas and interior products. Hopefully they discovered some new ways of looking at old and discarded materials as well.

in reply to Re: Re: Re: How would you fix Java?in thread How would you fix Java?
I'm not sure what you mean by talking about stuff going into the core with Java as "bloat," unless you're referring to raw download size of the JRE. It's by no means the same situation as with PHP, because Java has packages, while PHP does not. It can be quite maddening for quite a long time to figure out how one accesses one's preferred database in PHP, for example, since mysql_* and pg_* are both in the core (well, if you compile them in, they are).
You can write a reasonably functional (if verbose) program in Java without using anything outside of the java.lang package (although, heh, you can't process a file ...); OTOH, if you need to process XML and you have JDK 1.4 or later, or you want to serialize some expensive-to-construct objects in Java, you can do it without having to download anything new. Yes, the base API documentation is huge, but you can do a heck of a lot with it. It's kinda like shipping a lot of CPAN in the distribution.
It's by no means an official central Java repository of modules, and it's also by no means as comprehensive as CPAN, but the Apache Jakarta project has been developing reusable components, some of which are quite nice. I still prefer CPAN, but my point is that the Java picture is not as bleak as it is sometimes made out to be. Of course, for most textual processing, I still prefer to use Perl, but my view of Java is not as jaundiced as it used to be.
If not P, what? Q maybe? "Sidney Morgenbesser"
CPAN frees me from dependancy on core libs. I don't have to wait for a new release of Perl to get new features and/or bug fixes, I don't have to upgrade to a new release of Perl to use features and/or bug fixes. CPAN makes me free from release schedule for Perl.

One of the things that's seemed to be an everpresent problem in CS is that
designing for the future is hard. You just can't foresee all the problems
that might crop up. YouArentGonnaNeedIt and YouAreGonnaNeedIt are always
ridin up and down that seesaw of long-term planning, and I think it's
unreasonable to expect to that language specifications shouldn't also evolve
with the programmers using those specifications. It'd be great for them to get it right the first time, but how often does that happen? Why do notions like refactoring have books written about them?
I'd argue that writing programs in a 'foolproof' way is hard to do in Perl,
just as it is in Java or any other language. However, the addition of type safety is sometimes a
GoodThing, since it mitigates the risk of client code (code using any given API) screwing up by having arbitrary functions executing arbitrary things. I want to idiot-proof my code, not because I think other people are idiots, but because I know I _am_ an idiot, and I'll screw things up every chance I can get.
Don't get me wrong, I really like perl a lot (and am still learning!), I was raised
on Scheme and C/C++, but I also respect Java's place in the PL hierarchy
(although they should have at least handled recursive tail calls properly...
that's a different story though ;). It's just that having non-static typing
means that you can't make as strong a guarantee of what you can or can't do
with a symbolic name. It means that my subroutine can return an integer half
the time, or another subroutine as a first class value the other half of the
time. It means that if in my program, if I accidentally re-assign my $shared
variable somewhere (even with lexical scoping), $shared might be a hash
reference instead of an array reference. Of course, I can add a check at
runtime using ref(), but sometimes it's nicer to have that check made for me
at compile-time so I don't have to wait and write a unit test to realize that
I'm bungling something. Perl is great for flexibility, brevity,
expressiveness-in-shortest-number-of-lines, and, in general, becoming a very
'natural' and idiomatic language to speak in, but but it also provides a lot of ways for me or the person coding to my framework to screw up by localizing
the wrong symbolic name at the wrong time or whatever.
To me, one of the biggest strengths of Java is its ability to enforce
contract-based programming. You can ensure that implementors and
client-developers follow the contract that you lay down to some stronger degree
than most other languages... for instance, (example shamelessly lifted from the
way JUnit does things, basically an example of the Template Method from the
GoF):
public abstract class Goo implements Gooable {
protected abstract void doSomethingThatRequiresSetup();
public void doSomething() {
setUp();
doSomethingThatRequiresSetup();
tearDown();
}
public void setUp() {
... initialize network connections and blah blah blah
}
public void tearDown() {
... close network connections and any open files
}
}
[download]
Besides, no language holds a candle up to Scheme ;). Where else can you smash
your brains out with the power of hygienic macros and call/cc? Not until
continuations become first class values in Perl 6 at least :).
wow, that's a lotta blathering. apologies for the rambling - flames/corrections/thinly-veiled insults are welcome!

I'm replying here at IlyaM's request (we've had a /msg discussion going for a while). I think the charge of lack of modularity in Java is way off the mark, and he thought I should put my thoughts into a post.
Extending the functionality of Java is as simple as getting the relevant .jar file and putting it on your application's classpath. If you want to make certain functionality available to all your applications (à la default @INC in Perl) you can have that, too, by putting the relevant jars in the system's extension directory, although the mechanism doesn't lay out directories à la @INC. In the most recent versions of the JDK, you can even override some of the packages in the java.* and javax.* hierarchies simply by putting jars in the appropriate directory. And, of course, you can set your classpath and other system properties however you want when you execute java, so all this stuff is flexible.
Combined with Java's (mostly) OO roots (AOL keyword: "code reuse"), in particular the ability to define interface classes and different implementations thereof, this makes for mad modularity and upgradeability, even extending in some cases to classes in the core of the language. I'm not saying that Perl doesn't have these features (you can fake the ones that aren't there by default), but that to say Java doesn't have them is based on a serious misconception.
My earlier comment merely referred to the fact that JDK 1.4 implements the JAXP specification ( standardized API for XML processing ) "out of the box", but you had that with earlier versions of the JDK simply by downloading the relevant jars and placing them on your classpath1. Java is, and has since the introduction of jars, been highly modular and upgradeable, outside of the core classes. There is still no CPAN equivalent.
1 JDK 1.4 also makes regexps available out of the box. Wow, it only took about 6 years after Perl5 =)

I 'm on a french server called : La Croisade écarlate and when i'm uploading my characterprofiler.lua file i get this message:
Invalid realm. You are not playing on an official realm, and your realm setup is incompatible with roster. Good luck fixing it up.
I'm adding this message cause I'm getting annoyed by the occasional person who can't get roster to work on his private server
Can somebody give me the solution to solve this problem efficiently ?

Hi,
For my Pop over, I'd like to set "Visit via specific referrer."
When I drag and drop this option, there is an entry window that
has the word "Array" in it.
What goes here?
- WP conditional tags?
- URL?
Thanks!
P.S.
As a suggestion, when entering a post like this - and using the "Pick a plugin or theme" drop down, it is often hard to find the right plug-in.
For example, when looking for Pop over, it doesn't seem logical to me to search for "The" Pop Over. I invariably end up wasting time when trying to "pick a theme or plug-in."

from 10am Sunday 1st December 2013
at NSW Parliament Macquarie St
Leaving aside the draconian nature of these laws a fundamental question needs to be asked: "Should a society have laws or penalties which apply ONLY to certain sections classes races sexes or ages within that society?" Notions of equality hold that such a situation should not be tolerated. Each person should answer the question for themselves. If your answer is that a society should NOT have separate laws applying to some but not others then it follows that you should oppose the Queensland, and Australia wide Anti bikie laws.
The encroaching undermining of peoples freedoms has happened and can only happen because by doing nothing you consent. "Its not happening to me may be true today...but if you do nothing now, when your turn comes, who will defend your rights.
The Queensland and National Anti Bikie laws are a Government response to Government driven mass hysteria scape-goating Biker Clubs for the alleged involvement of some members in some forms of Crime. If these laws are acceptable should they not apply equally to RSL Clubs or The Catholic Church? Even the Government itself? I can think of past instances where "3 or more members" of an organisation in each of these categories has been convicted of a serious indictable offence, having "acted or colluded together" -the parameters for application of "The Bikie Laws".
In NSW the contentious Anti-Bikie Laws dont just apply to bikies.They apply to all groups including Churches , Social Clubs Trade Unions and even Media organisations. They can be used to silence Workers demands for Fairer conditions and pay or Protest Groups dissemination of information.
If you do not wish to see YOUR RIGHTS ERODED -Stand with Bikers to Ban The Anti Biker Laws.
Protests are called for Australia wide on December 1st.

Falcon RefinedWeb 1B
Dataset Description
This is a 1.01 Billion token subset of the tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb dataset. It was created by streaming the dataset with a large shuffle buffer to ensure a random, representative sample of the web data.
Motivation
RefinedWeb is a high-quality filtered web dataset, but the full version is massive. This 1B token slice provides a perfect testbed for evaluating model architecture changes or for use in curriculum learning experiments.
Dataset Details
- Total Tokens: 1,005,000,041 (~1.01B)
- Source: tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb
- Method: Streamed with shuffle buffer (size=5000).
- Format: Parquet (Snappy compression)
- Producer: Kris Bailey (kris@krisbailey.com)
Usage
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("krisbailey/falcon-refinedweb-1B", split="train")
print(ds[0])
Subsets & Slicing
Since this dataset was randomly shuffled during creation, you can safely slice it to get smaller, representative datasets (e.g., for scaling laws experiments) without needing to download the full dataset.
# 100M Token Subset (approx 10%)
ds_100m = load_dataset("krisbailey/falcon-refinedweb-1B", split="train[:10%]")
# 500M Token Subset (approx 50%)
ds_500m = load_dataset("krisbailey/falcon-refinedweb-1B", split="train[:50%]")
