In any event, there's a history book written by a Frenchman in 1843 about the third century and he has a lot of interesting facts to toss out on the subject of Baal; because Baal was practically a rainbow of living light back then, except much more popular.
Like Christianity, Baal had many sects, and these sects had far greater diversity of beliefs than Christians today. Because Baal's focus was on the feminine, the goddess of earth, harvest and fertility, it had more forms expression could go through. Like Christianity, it had a region it originated from, and was semi-headquartered at, Syria; Imagine if CHRISTIANS IN ACTION could replace Syria's state religion with the far less authoritarian cultural structures of Baal.
Baal's popularity and respect was such that The Black Stone they worshiped which fell from space and was housed in Syria, could be rented out by other countries, and would travel about like a King Tut exhibit. However it was an evil black stone, and while that proved the meritorious nature of worshiping it, it frequently led to very bad luck and hasty return to Syria.
Like the old testament famous bans on incense in high places, (which some liken to our ban on pot) and depictions of graven images (the forerunner of modern art)—so there are two specific things we know about Baal, (In assertion to our claims Baal was about the Goddess, in special ways; and that Baal involved the relation of sun and moon over earth.) Once a year, over a few days; women would prostitute themselves, and a few men had to cut off their dicks. The latter became a priestly caste called the Galli.
This term must be construed as an irreverent style, teasing the Galls, much as the couch to jupiter may be construed as teasing Jupiter, who you know enjoys visiting.
These castrated then took on religious rank; And this prostitution emblematic of a thematic of this religion including passionate, orgiastic, disgusting and sexual behaviors. It was women were worshiped, but not the wimpy stately weeping side of women referenced by Livy; though at times maybe, but the wild, super sad, emotional, controlled, mystical, witchy potential of women; manifested in several forms, to these overtones. This historian references altars on islands worshipers had to swim to, and altars amid tame lions and tigers worshipers had to trust. And huge straggling parades against and mocking war.
And Venus was a big if not huge part of this. While Jupiter was not a part of this; Jupiter was not of Baal. Venus was. The sun and the moon were, yet Venus, flitting in the background behind the worship of the relationship between Moon and Sun is the female influence of annoyance and dissatisfaction, yet power and to be somehow satiated into kindness and blessing upon earth. And the belief of uniting people in contrast to make a statement upon a planet, prevalent: The fascinating element to Venus, that while she is quite hotter and colder than earth, with vaporous clouds, still she has not reproduced, and witnessing earth, who would?
The old testament refers to The Queen of Heaven as being an irresponsible and corrupting sect upon the old testament domain; without being identified as linked to Baal. This both shows how different denominations of Baal could be different enough to not include the general affiliation; and how the old testament limited what could be known about Baal. I am certain the Queen of Heaven is Venus. I am not sure how the worship of moon and sun, particularly their relation, of tides and settings, can be wild enough incorporating women's weird witchiness; and yet there is something unique to earth in that relation, subsequently, a wildness, and lack of uniformity compared to other earth like planets in the universe, where undoubtedly metaphysic must be encompassed.
So it is this matriarchal worship, and of a planet, and of using women on this planet to capture the spell of earth's uniqueness and difference, that is replaced by the patriarchy Christ came to dominate. There are several reasons for the chronic disappointment of the papacy. One is how when the Western Roman Empire collapsed, only Christianity was left to lead the remnants politically, and hence the papal state shows how unsuited Christianity is for being the sole heir to government; whereas out of Constantinople, orthodoxy, as Christianity was called in its political correctness, stood alongside a political structure.
Likewise the greed of power being associated with Christianity, because Constantine promoted Christianity, sullied and reduced the integrity of Christianity, and to deal fully with the difference between Catholicism and The Orthodox, greed must be gotten rid of, because greed inhibits the apprehension of truth. And Catholicism's lingering self-perception as a government of its own onto the people; it is wrong for a religion to cast itself as a polity; far more suited as a contrast to government, and a service positing government as in error, the orthodox pointed gave way to government and existed along side the state in an advisory and respected capacity, and at times in these troubled centuries of mid first millennium, rising to save her.
And yet the greatest error afflicts both the orthodoxy and Catholicism; which is that while women may be unsuited for political and military generalships; if they really think life is a beauty contest, or getting married is important, or that there really are potentially dangerous culture clashes, and society at a political level really takes on a very serious edge; women are thus especially suited for spiritual leadership, especially the liturgy of the orthodox, and the guidance back to the spiritual from the inherited role of political, I say Catholicism suffers from. For the life of me, the rejection of women leaders in these churches is a real hole in the foot. I don't see anyone not acknowledging that flaw, and thus God is ready to change this in a day.
For whatever reason a statement against the study of women, a rejection of the significance of Venus, perhaps a lack of intellectual expansion, Hinduism and Baal project; marks Christianity as rejecting and an authorative statement against an existing order of understanding, to a point of keeping knowledge of Baal secret.
Within the nuance of Baal, an analysis of prostitution and castration day, illuminates the idea of whether the sex had to be paid for or if it was free. Is there a difference between free sex day, and prostitution day; because while both are equally gross, and actually suggestive of the sexual schism between the sexes marriage imposes; identical to the ultimately unsensual effect of pornography upon our society and behavior; it is one thing if it is free and another if costing. I have trouble paying for sex. I would have trouble being paid for sex. Sex is far more important than money; especially since money isn't really used in the kingdom of god, and society does a good part in covering up the kingdom of god. Therefore even though sex is often evasive and removed, ideally, it is realer than money, which though in the forefront, is limited in its true nature by the market actuality of the kingdom of god, money's actual lack of relevance.
But either way, it is hard for me to imagine having or wanting to have sex this way. I can see myself sitting out this vast party, which apparently spread to all sorts of considerately pornographic acts. With the ascendancy of Christianity, Baal became forgotten. And maybe this form was a corruption of baal purity with the sensual instead of the chivalrous.
Roman emperors would steal treasures of what was called the celestial goddess, from Carthage. One perverted roman emperor married her, with her image, at a ceremony. The ancient sacred ever burning fire of Vesta, was brought to the festival and everyone was forced to drink—as alcohol was considered a requirement to participate in frenzied moods; the emphasis on mood and mood creation, an interesting tenet; and potential stepping stone and departure from the suggestive, to the applicable and manifesting.
Apparently fear causing and devoid of moral attributes, yet consistent with human sacrifice, as well as animal sacrifice, and lots of drinking, but probably the stupid kind of drinking, the kind that gives alcohol a bad name, this "goddess with many names… was Nature herself" yet extended to heaven through the moon, to the tune of joyous shouts, or mournful wails or heavy flute, and sensual self-castration. She is parallel to Isis. And yet as the religion must involve the old difference between sex and reproduction; so it may have pierced the conservative factions of that day, who couldn't step over the horrible institution of marriage. Is it love, or a spell? Could one live off money for sex, without realizing money doesn't seem used. Our society is so thin compared to the width of what really is all around. And does anyone want to go through sex with another person without the dance of time and with pay? As if there is something vital and urgent, for sex truly can not be forced. A forced arousal can be construed as forced and therefore, not counting; That domain has lots of thoughts; a separate room, is it just to relax, or is there a boomerang everywhere, and sex is more not to be had, by the grand illusion, the dilutement of consciousness to a lack of projection of brain, being deemed and actually, inimical to going all the way. Might not venus not allow sex? Is marriage the worship of venus? Does the kingdom of god change stoicism? This was why future generations of her worship associated her with the mermaid. Their were other deities, but in Cypress and Carthage she was the chief one; I do not know what the other deities were. Thus the southern are more heir to her. And explains a christian clumsiness.
Her shrines were generally roofless, with freestanding pillars through, and in the courtyard, she could be marked as a simple conic stone, and halls that housed doves kept nearby. There is also a reference to "Baal-Zeus" combining venus and zeus in a sect. One image of her is on a chariot harnessed to lions, she kept a scepter and a spindle. In courtyards near her, could be appropriated, images of lesser gods like Appollo and Hercules, Atlas and famous kinds from antiquity. The Galli, and Full Time Prostitutes, and stragglers, lived there, and the castrated would cause the women to rave madly resulting in weird parades, and sacrifices not just of animals, but wealth.
When this Syrian religion came to the Rome, it came as legions of musicians, drunks, eunichs, nudists, and show girls, and while allowed in Rome, they were not allowed to convert people: An original hippy cult, whose aura early Christianity adventures to assume, but may be imitative and even jealous, as the stately transformation offered by the gospel was incapable of that kind of craziness. Indeed Christians were favored by the Constantine for their reasonableness in these troubling later Roman centuries. Whereas the Baal people would parade with donkeys mocking Pegasus, and midgets pretending to be mars, setting up maypoles in the way of everything. Subtle symbolism seems to be a big part of this spread religion. That was the service, our mocking of mars, now get with what?
The men of Baal thoughts would go get drunk in Rome and sleep in the corners of bars, while the women would practice healing arts for the upper class women, and thus be admitted into powerful households. From here the flagrant superstitious quality of roman women enabled the spread of this cult all over Italy with the priests being of the lowest possible class, dressing as women and begging while putting down females, and if that didn't work, begging to their tambourine dance, and if that didn't work, whipping each other till blood stopped the whipping, which drove them to greater excess and theft. Crazy hippies if there ever were.
Likewise there would be week long parties in the woods teasing the Galli, such as a tree cutting ceremony, the castrated priests, where each day, a particular mood was to be struck. Locals would stop by and gape out of amusement, a respite from a more conservative world. "The Maypole (placed in audacious protest in front of churches)may be the final echo of the festival of the great mother. And perhaps we can say, the castrated stand for and are symbolic of the kingdom of god unacknowledged in society.
Further evidence of the dying last dance of Baal; huge pillars, phallic worship of the goddess in general. A guy each year would climb to the top and live there for a week. No easy feat. People could then come round, or psychically, pray to him, to answer their prayers. Then the guy climbed down. Well, as time went on, the guy would try to stay there a month, and there'd be a guy a few pillars over trying to spend a year, so then down in the ground near the basement someone dug a cage in the ground, small, where he'd try to stay a year, and then someone tried to stay a few years, and then a few devout started spending their entire lives in these cage pits, hoping to be prayed to. Meanwhile, this just made christianity more and more popular. Baal was getting too ridiculous.
Those huge cathedrals seem to protect us from the universe; as my religion, deeming bad things on earth due to an unhappy universe, and by understanding this, so understand; Yet Christianity is too humble and example like, and simple, for huge basilicas. But what about those open air shrines in Baal thought, the pillars into air, the stone, of the woman?
While I have said many times our country's federalist structure belies the republic of Rome, there was one politico-religious difference: Which is that roman government embraced and encouraged any religion that worked, or was seen so. There were frequent inscriptions to all the gods, so none felt left out. The state was an opportunity to worship a belief system, and any belief system, fair game for worship; to a divinity of foreign cultures finding new places sophisticated.
To begin practicing Baal; consistently over time, think of the sun and moon, overhead, or around. They will come to your mind, your mind, need not find where they are. At some point, this evolves to thinking and feeling the planets on regular basis, their harmonious and stately dance in rotation. It is possible to feel the influence of each these celestial bodies upon you. Sometimes they work together. Clearly, they have been friends and know each other a long time. You belong to them, not vice versa; they are not writing, the death of the universe is writing, they are more sympathetic and ironic, and caught in the middle as they are.
The moon has a quality of being to the left of the mind, and aware of the issue of activating the kingdom of god into society. Likewise the sun burns with this energy within the body. Mars is sympathetic and bleeds a sadness upon us; a sympathy against the perjuration of women. The sun takes care of the young, and jupiter the old. Jupiter is like the camera we speak into. Outerspace requires the misery of our media, but somehow jupiter is active in sucking it up and spitting it out for dissemination in the stars, Meanwhile outerspace is doing nothing but sitting in misery, many pieces of it. Observing how outerspace is translated by my eye, is what I sometimes seek to do.
Powerful crystal tiny around all my brain…what we examine now, is why the religion of Baal has been lost from history. It's certainly meritorious. Even though the corruption of Paul extends to an implication of the jews, for good friday, and afterwards to early christians; this makes no sense as the jews are a fairly easy going, mellow, nonviolent, and reasonable people. The real charge against the jews is why we haven't heard of Baal, and when Baal is cited in the old testament as an enemy, and the basic fairly accurate tenets of Baal slandered. So Baal is no longer known, and the last trace of it is in the old testament; it looks suspicious.
As Paul be exposed as the evil one; so must we compare our ignorance of Baal to our ignorance of local decision making in peaceful assembly. What force is repressive enough to repress such instinct and nature? I do not think the basically mellow easy going reasonable and thinking for themselves descendants of the hebrew speaking, consciously wish for there to be no memory of the reckless yet lovable remnants of pure Baal. I am reminded of how the state in NJ has no interest in the benefit of peaceful assembly; which is ridiculous; probably cowtowed to the national media having no interest to local decision making in peaceful assembly as per New England, which is the patriots' karma; it's the same thing; repression comes from government, and it's overlord, the media, in its not wanting risky human displays; likewise writing itself, as being removed, may or may not have desires regarding the repression of humanity. Being removed, it may like the dry; but seeking to be entertaining; it may like the wild chill of baalic satirical commentary. A writer naturally wants to write about the people who put a maypole up on the church front steps as the christians are aworship.
There is a difficulty in the weakness of the human being; that may not tolerate this lurching tilt. There is a difficulty in outerspace getting into the truly ridiculous extensions of reason. There are the planets that don't want to be mocked. And there is christianity, whose stately patriarchy seems to be compensation to God, consistent with the reduction of Baal; and the wild stupid women of earth.
There is something similiar I encounter in my attempts to ressurect local decisions being made in peaceful assembly, and what happened to Baal. That many towns in New England require a quorum of 236 for local decisions to be made is not known, but it should be. Likewise, the reality of Baal, the common sense of the sun and moon being in the mind, and jupiter somehow being a part of you, amid an evil outer space, is as obvious as knowing local decisions should be made by all. But as the state employees I enlist to help protect peaceful assembly, are all not helpful in a machine-like way; so what happened to Baal seems it was victim of some machine erasing knowledge of it, to no apparent end but to decrease the fun and good of earth: some communion of the stern and patriarchal to not being fun; or even real.
Paganism, on the other hand, as we seek to define it in its absence, I believe courts, seeks and presents the extraordinary experience: that which shows the truth as truth and lies as lies. To some degrees this includes ancient practices of following around men considered wise. It was common for a respected person to be literally followed around in his day by several or a score of people, in a useful and even festive fashion. Can we construe that as extraordinary? Likewise an example of the extraordinary can be when a whole neighborhood shares and eats together, or one neighborhood places food and drinks on my front porches and stoops and invites another neighborhood over to enjoy it. Livy recounts early rome as courting neighboring towns that way.
Yet Paganisn involved animal and even human sacrifices; whereas Christianity seems to symbolize the last necessary sacrifice. Whereby even if you agree Jesus being seen on Easter, and his terminology and language makes his sacrifice as played by Paul and the Gospel of John contradicts that symbolism, so this value, that there should be no need to sacrifice people, seems to prevail through Christianity.
I can imagine, human, animal sacrifice, and in context of the prevelance of war as well, suppressing people, with that fear of imminent death, knock on wood, and then that suppression, lifted off, give rise to the extradordinary.
Yet the sacrifices of modern day; demanded or feeding the universe, we may speculate; while not overt, exist even more, than in ancient times; through the institution of daily newspapers. What I am trying to say, that in classical times, there weren't daily papers; and there doesn't seem to be anywhere near the crime and violence and tragedy that we have in today's newspapers. The judiciary, in the Roman Republic, which was the model for many ancient governments, was a vehicle of the people, aimed at the Roman legislature and executive, being a genesis of evil and corruption; for foolish and corrupt policies are far more to aimed at, the imperfections of our society. Even the advent of publishing did not include crime statistics till recently.
As the kingdom of God is an adequate and verifiable definition of a phenonoma on earth, the newspapers are a vehicle for the demands that make up these violent slanders upon the kingdom of god. Catholicism and its ilk, must recognize the lies coming from the papers, and work their psychic magic to decrease if not end these unmerciful slanders upon the kingdom of god and human race and beings.
But the extraordinary paganism searches for; how encompassed it it within the practices, of prostitution and castration; negative extraordinary behavior as they are; the traveling men drinking with the locals, the traveling women demonstrating healing arts; while those are socially worthy behaviors, and offer the opportunities for truth to be seen and manifested; on their face they are not the kick extraordinary as great paganism my seek. The strategic and subversive maypoles blocking traffic, the parties in the woods, remind us of the positive and incredible, but not necessarily extraordinary; which can also extend into celestial visions and afterlife relations. The extraordinary may not be subtle.
Christianity seeks the rule of faith and love through the kingdom of god, certainly a speculated form; that we imagine as the more excellent way Aquinas called it. The Roman edict allowing Baal in Rome, but not allowing them to convert anyone, this as they drew money from wealthy women impressed with their healing arts, and the men bummed drinks off the roman soldiers, up for anything spiritual: because castration and prostitution was just to be flat out frowned upon. And so why is it associated with the sun and the moon? Because the sun puts out for nothing, through a miserable, and the moon shines on nothing; both symbolize worthless loves. Is this the wry statement of Baal?
The romans, though a culture of tribes, took arms against the other pagan tribes, mythologizing themselves as the best, and while having no problem with pagan practices, being militarily minded, started the practice of homogenizing and codifying the land, thus limiting and reducing cultures. The jewish people, with their old testament spreading vicious allegations about the other tribes in the area, culturally thus also took on a mono component.
So when Christianity became favored by the empire, the old testament anti-tribal propoganda began to spread as well, and thus both the old and new testament subtley worked against paganism, through an ignoring of the universe by christianity, and a subtle discounting of tribal consciousness through the implication the jews are the only tribe. Yet in reality, as tribes were all that lived in europe some time ago, our nationalities in America have some obligation to rejoin in tribal efficiency and create a secret society, independent and unknown to the media, where the kingdom of god is known, and acted upon in a more rational organization of society than history and the media presents.

Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, LARFB, was started by the late Tony Collier, a cook who saw food going to waste and began collecting it to distribute to people in need. After a motorcycle trip to visit the nation's only food bank (at the time) in Phoenix, he launched the local program with an old pick-up truck, storing food in the garage of his Pasadena home.
Today, the Food Bank – the second oldest in the nation – distributes 1 million pounds of food every week, enough for 830,000 meals. It serves all of L.A. County, 4,000 square miles with the largest population of any county in the nation. One out of every six people in L.A. County experiences hunger and, to date, the Food Bank has served more than 1 billion pounds of food through 653 agencies & 1,078 distribution sites. But another 600 agencies are on a waiting list … and they conservatively estimate another 700,000 people are food challenged and not receiving help.
The face of hunger in L.A. has changed and is not predominantly the homeless … It's people who thought they would never stand in a food line (Some have even donated their time and money to the cause in the past). While people focus on the issue of hunger during the holidays, it's important to realize it's a year 'round issue and focus on the "Power of One" in effecting change. And it's not just concentrated in the most obvious neighborhoods if you look at our map of distribution centers. We challenge L.A. residents to just do one thing and have come up with 40 things individuals can do to help (attached).

A change needs to be made to AD so that games are more balanced and the outcome is based on skill more so than luck.
The biggest problem with the mode is the randomness factor of being assigned a hero and a position in the drafting phase. The position itself is just the RNG and that's just part of the mode, but the hero shouldn't also be arbitrarily assigned. So often games are imbalanced with teams of Pugna, Axe, TB, CK and Silencer versus a lineup of Alch, Weaver, Riki, Visage and Timbersaw. The game's over before the the picks and it's a waste of time for both teams.
A simple fix for this would be to have the hero selection from the available pool as the first phase of the draft. The person in the first position gets the first choice of hero but last pick of their skill - essentially as it is now, just starting with hero selection. This change would make the games more balanced and consistently more fun. It also adds a level of skill by giving teams the ability to coordinate their lineups based on heroes and skill trees. And like the two extra ultimate skills available in AD, the change should include two extra heroes so the person with the last pick can make the decision to choose between Riki, Slark, or Weaver (or whatever trash is left).
tl;dr - Make AD better by adding a hero selection as the first phase of the draft.

Fiscalini's aged cheeses are made by hand from the finest milk in California - produced from their very own contented cows, and aged in a special aging rooms, then watched over by master cheesemaker Marino Gonzalez. All their cheeses are made as they would be in Europe. Each wheel is a labor of love, delicately made by hand in open vats, where the talented cheesemakers' dedication and experience determine the outcome of the final product. All Fiscalini cheeses are produced on the almost 100 year-old family-owned dairy farm. Amazingly, they produce the electricity to run the entire farm with an anaerobic digester that produces methane as a fuel, from cow manure and other waste products.

More On The Saudi Prince
Frank Gaffney, Jr., has made a few more points about Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, recent investor in Fox News:
"Al-Waleed is said be the world's fifth richest man and now NewsCorp's fourth largest voting shareholder (behind the Murdoch family, Liberty Media and fund giant Fidelity Management & Research Co)....
"[After his check was rejected by Mayor Giuliani] the prince released a statement that blamed the United States and its support for Israel for the devastating 9/11 attacks....
"Shortly after the check fiasco, he permitted the CBS program 60 Minutes to profile him and his hyper-rich, internationally jet-setting lifestyle....[H]e told his incredulous interviewer, Ed Bradley, that that Saudi Arabia is a country with 'no problems.' When pressed, he insisted, 'What I'm telling you is Saudi Arabia has no civil unrest, no civil disobedience. Sorry. Saudi Arabia is a very stable country. Sure…we had these bombs here and there, but they were all related to a certain subject.'
"Even more troubling than having a Saudi spinmeister, even a lousy one, at the decision-making table of America's most successful, and conservative, television network is another aspect of Al-Waleed's deal with Mr. Murdoch. The Australian entrepreneur has reportedly also given the prince the unfiltered ability to broadcast Saudi-produced materials directly into America on Murdoch's satellite....Prince Al-Waleed's Rotana Audio Visual Company, which operates TV channels in the Middle East, has signed a deal with DirecTV, the TV-satellite firm controlled by NewsCorp. As a result, it would seem Rotana will be able to beam its programs into U.S. cable boxes without interference from federal regulators, or anybody else."
More details about the deal between Murdoch and the Saudi prince are available. Not being any kind of expert in media economics, I don't understand all of what Gaffney is saying. But my intuition tells me that these details are ripe for exploitation.
Broadcasting in Saudi is controlled and censored by the Saudi government. When I send certain articles to my American friends in Saudi, I have to copy and paste entire stories if the links I'm using are not approved ones. Can Saudi extend their own information-control policy to the media in the United States by means of financial investment? Or has Saudi already quietly extended their policy and we don't even realize it?
I may be way out of line here, but I have to ask the following question: Who holds large shares of ABC/Disney, which owns WMAL Radio, the station which dismissed Michael Graham for making negative statements about Islam?

If $p: E\to B$ is a fibration, is the map $q:M_p \to B$ from the mapping cylinder of $p$ also a fibration?
I know that it is if $p$ is trivial, or locally trivial; and I know (from Strøm's "The Homotopy Category is a Homotopy Category") that the topology of $M_p$ can be slightly modified to make $q$ a fibration.
I wonder
whether the modification is necessary: does anyone know of a fibration $p$ such that $q$ is not a fibration, and
whether the modification is necessary if we assume the spaces are compactly generated (Strøm works with all spaces).
EDIT: There is a natural injective map from mapping cylinder $M_f$ of the map $f: X\to Y$ to the join $X * Y$; the topology on $M_f$ is modified so that it coincides with the subspace topology.

A Vancouver area teen who told a heart-breaking story in a YouTube video of cyberbullying that led to an all-out schoolyard attack has committed suicide.
In stories and posts flooding Vancouver's social media networks, #RIPAmanda is trending as people post news and condolences for the teen, Amanda Todd. Amanda died in Port Coquitlam last night.
"I think the video should be shared and used as an anti-bullying tool. That is what my daughter would have wanted." Todd's mother wrote in a tweet when I mentioned online that YouTube had removed the video midday today.
However when I contacted Google, the company said the removal was in error and the video was reinstated.
The young teen went to school in Maple Ridge but had changed schools and was attending the Coquitlam Alternate Basic Education (CABE) high school She joined YouTube on September 6 and posted her video September 7. Her last YouTube activity was when she added a Hunter Hayes music video to her favourites on YouTube.
On September 7, she also uploaded a presentation Cyber Bullying on Prezi in which she explains what cyberbullying is and gives advice on dealing with it.
In what could turn out to be her own very sad legacy, Todd urged people to stand up to bullies and to help their victims:
"If you see that someone is being bullied, don't be afraid to tell the bully to stop doing what they are doing. Make sure to tell them that it's wrong and that they shouldn't bully other kids."
To parents, Todd urged them "to always give your child emotional support" and help them if they are being bullied.
Paul McNaughton is the principal at CABE, a school that helps students who are having difficulty in other schools for a variety of reasons.
He said the students and staff at the school are grieving today. He said Todd, who joined the school halfway through the last school year and came back to start Grade 10 in September, had friends at CABE.
"It is a very sad case," he said. "I can tell you we feel we tried everything we could to help her when she came to us.
"She was quite connected here. The staff and the students here are very much impacted. She had some very strong ties in the school and to staff in the school.
"The whole thing has been pretty hard."
In her video, telling her story through phrases she held up on cards for the camera, Todd told of living with her father, who she said rescued her when she was lying in a ditch after being beaten by a number of students. She said then moved to another school and was with her mom.
McNaughton said the family doesn't want to talk to the media.
"We're respecting their wishes," he said.
Dr. Tyler Black, child and adolescent psychiatrist and Clinical Head at the BC Children's Hospital Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Emergency Unit, said the reasons people commit suicide are complex.
"One of my areas of interest is suicide and the more I study it the more I realize how complex it is," he said. "People don't arrive at the end point, dying through suicide in a simplistic way."
As social media networks were flooded with news of Todd's death, Black urged parents, educators and people at risk of suicide to realize there is help and to find it.
"The message is there are professionals there, there are people who out there who can help – it is a message of help and hope," he said.He urged parents, educators and youth at risk of suicide to realize there is help through options such as www.youthinbc.com or 1-800-SUICIDE.
"The message is there are professionals there, there are people who out there who can help," he said.
On a positive note, Black said suicide among youth, those aged 10 to 24, dropped 25 per cent from 2000 to 2009.
Black said 25 to 30 per cent of youth who die by suicide have never seen a health professional in connection with their problems and it is crucial to detect when people are at risk "before a person has an impulse to end their life."
By the end of the day, five Facebook pages dedicated to Amanda had been created with tributes and condolences from friends, strangers and people who wrote about that they too had been bullied.
In a post on its Facebook page, G Force Gym, Home of the Vancouver All Stars cheerleaders, wrote:
"Today we feel the loss of our former VAS family member Amanda… I ask that we all watch her video and share her story so that her loss is not in vain. Allow this to be her legacy… "
In a note accompany her video, Todd wrote:
"I'm struggling to stay in this world, because everything just touches me so deeply. I'm not doing this for attention. I'm doing this to be an inspiration and to show that I can be strong. I did things to myself to make pain go away, because I'd rather hurt myself then someone else. Haters are haters but please don't hate, although im sure I'll get them. I hope I can show you guys that everyone has a story, and everyones future will be bright one day, you just gotta pull through. I'm still here aren't I ?" was the message accompanying the video post."
Commenting on Amanda's video, Molly wrote:
"Rest in peace and fly high to Amanda Todd. I was just messaging her about almost a week ago, and I just found out that she has taken her life…
"Bullying is NEVER okay. Rest easy, Amanda. I'm so sorry to her family. :("A spokesperson for YouTube said the online video service partners with safety groups to provide educational resources that are incorporated into the YouTube Safety Center and it displays links to the US National Suicide Prevention hotline on the results page for certain suicide-related search queries in the US.
YouTube said it is exploring the possibility of adding similar resources in Canada.

It seems there is an abundance of Lotus corniculatus (Birdsfoot trefoil) along the edges of the paths in the Cofrin Arboretum right now. The name originates from the seed pods that fan out from the stem like a bird foot. The three-lobed trefoil leaves are found in many species in the pea family (Fabaceae). Unfortunately, like so many other wildflowers it is exotic and can become invasive. This perennial plant is native to parts of Europe, Asia, and North Africa, and was probably introduced from Europe as a forage plant for cattle. It is common throughout the western Great Lakes states where the bright yellow flowers are found in pastures, roadsides, and disturbed riparian areas throughout the summer months.
Birdsfoot trefoil is able to thrive in low nutrient soils because, like other plants in the pea family, its roots contain nodules filled with symbiotic bacteria that can fix nitrogen. The bacteria are able to convert nitrogen in the atmosphere into a chemical form that is easily absorbed by plants. This allows it to easily invade sunny disturbed sites where it will eventually form a deep perennial root mass.
It can form dense low growing mats that shade out native plants and is considered invasive in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, and 5 other states. Because fire increases seed germination it can be a serious threat to our native prairies. Small plants can be dug up, but all of the roots must be removed to prevent it from resprouting. Heavy infestations are usually treated by repeated mowing or with herbicides.

"If any bad comes out of this thing, as far as guys doing bad or saying they are not sharp, I'm going to have to say that's a hoax," Peavy said. "The longer you go without pitching, as long as it's not a couple of weeks, you will do plenty enough in between starts to stay sharp and you should feel outstanding."
"I know some people like to stay in the routine and I certainly do too," Peavy said. "I have no problems staying in a routine of things. But the more time you have off, the better you are going to feel. That's the bottom line. You can throw a couple of sides and throw off of flat ground to stay sharp. I don't think there's any excuse."

World Series Game 1 game story.
It's a microcosm of the playoffs for the Red Sox. In the bottom of the second inning on Wednesday night, the Sox had two men out, no one on and an 0-2 count on the batter. And they scored a run. Improbable? Perhaps, but hardly out of the ordinary. Through 11 games of the playoffs, eight wins, the Sox have done a lot of things right. They've struck for runs quickly, manufactured runs when necessary, piled on when the opportunity arose and all in all made it look like they were a college basketball power taking on a cupcake. Notice to the Colorado Rockies - you're playing the varsity now. The Rockies entered the World Series on a roll that baseball hadn't seen before. They won 21 of their last 22 games and along the way disposed of the Padres in a play-in game, the Phillies in the division series and the Diamondbacks in the championship series. But that was against the National League East, not against the American League champs. To put it in perspective, think of the Red Sox being the Patriots and the National League being the rest of the AFC East. It sure looked that way on Wednesday night. Playing in a steady rain, the Red Sox took Game 1 of the World Series, 13-1, in a game they grabbed the Rockies by the throat early and then strangled the breath out of them. "That's not the way we drew it up," said Rockies manager Clint Hurdle. "I feel real confident we'll get back out there and get after it tomorrow." It's hard to see why he feels confident. The 13 runs are the most ever in Game 1 of a World Series. Eleven of the 13 runs came with two outs. The 12-run victory was the most lopsided ever in a Game 1. The Red Sox established a World Series record with nine doubles and 10 extra-base hits. "It looks easy, but it's not," said shortstop Julio Lugo. "We're facing a good team. Today, things worked out for us. Hopefully, the whole series will go like that. "We're playing at the highest level now. Our defense, our pitching, our hitting - they're at the highest level right now. This is the World Series." You need look no further than the first two innings to relish the Sox's dominance. Josh Beckett struck out the three batters he faced in the top of the first; the Red Sox scored three runs in the bottom of the first. The Rockies touched Beckett for a run in the top of the second; the Sox rallied with a two-out, 0-2 run of their own. For those who have seen the Sox the past two weeks, it was typical. "Obviously, Josh's three strikeouts kind of set the tone for the game," said Pedroia. "He was throwing flat-out gas. A lot of momentum was on our side and we end up getting three runs. That's a nice cushion especially with Josh on the mound." After Beckett struck out the side in the first, Pedroia put Rockies starter Jeff Francis' second pitch over the Green Monster to give the Sox a 1-0 lead. Pedroia became the 18th player to leadoff a World Series game with a home run and just the second to lead off Game 1 of the series with a home run. You have to go back to 1969 to find the other time; Don Buford did it for the Orioles against the Mets. But Pedroia's blast was just the appetizer. Kevin Youkilis followed with a double, moved to third on David Ortiz's grounder to first and scored on Manny Ramirez's single to left. Ramirez eventually scored on J.D. Drew's double to right. One inning down, a 3-0 lead and the Sox had forced the Rockies' ace to throw 30 pitches. They could have mailed it in from there. "It's certainly nice to play with a lead," said Red Sox manager Terry Francona. "I thought offensively, the whole night we did a good job of taking what he gave us, laying off pitches out of the zone. We took our walks, and when the ball was in the zone we took some pretty good swings." "When you have good at-bats and have a good approach, you're going to score runs," said center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury. "You're going to have a lot of success." Colorado cut the lead to 3-1 in the top of the second, but Youkilis, down 0-2 with two outs in the second, worked a walk and scored on Ortiz's double to gap in left-center. A two-run lead became three runs, and it became five runs two innings later. With two outs in the fourth, Ortiz single, Ramirez doubled and Jason Varitek knocked them both in with a ground-rule double. Then came the seven-run fifth inning against three Rockies' pitchers, all seven runs scoring with two outs. Three runs scored on bases-loaded walks. Seven players knocked in the seven runs. Ten men came to the plate with two outs. Mercy. "We know we can score with two outs," said Pedroia. "When we get two outs, I don't think anyone is going to quit on the inning. It just goes to show we're going to keep fighting. It doesn't matter if there are two outs, one out, no outs. We're going to try to find a way to have a good at-bat and get on base. "Everyone is swinging the bat real well and we're kind of feeding off each other. When everyone's clicking on the same cylinder, it's definitely fun. We're going to score runs in bunches." Meanwhile, Beckett, as he has all postseason, was dealing. The victory raised his record to 4-0 this postseason and the one run allowed lowered his ERA to 1.20. He walked one, just his second in 30 postseason innings, and struck out nine, giving him 35 in four postseason starts. He allowed six hits, the most he's allowed in any of the last four games. The 93 pitches he threw in seven innings were 10 fewer than the number Francis threw in four innings. "He's been effective for a while now," said Rockies manager Clint Hurdle. "His fastball has got good late life. He pitches both sides of the plate when he wants to and he gets ahead. "Working on counts, good rhythm, good pace. As advertised, we've seen it before. We saw more of it tonight." Enterprise

10 ingredients to look out for when choosing natural & organic beauty products
At Neal's Yard Remedies, we follow the Precautionary Principle – you won't find anything in our products we believe could cause you or the planet harm, just lots of ethically sourced, natural and organic herbs, botanicals and essential oils.
We believe what you leave out of a product can be as important as what you put in – you'll never find any of these in our products.
1. MEA/DEA DERIVATIVES - A type of surfactant used to produce a foaming effect, these derivatives are associated with known carcinogens. Look out for Cocamide DEA, Lauramide MEA, Linolemide DEA and Oleamide DEA when buying hand wash, shampoo and shower gel.
2. EDTA - A powerful metal ion chelator that strips impurities from products and balances the formulation to help prevent it from spoiling. As they don't biodegrade readily, we use biodegradable alternatives with a similar effect. Look out for EDTA on ingredient lists.
3. PARABENS - Synthetic preservatives used in cosmetics, many have had concerns raised over their safety and estrogen-like activity. Look out for words ending in 'paraben', such as 'methylparaben' on ingredient lists.
4. PHTHALATES - Used as a plasticiser to create flexibility in hair sprays and nail varnishes or as a solvent to stabilise the fragrance of a product, some phthalates are very toxic and have been banned from EU products. We've decided to 'ban' them all, just in case. Look out for Dimethyl Phthalate and Diethyl Phthalate to avoid phthalates.
5. SILICONES - These synthetically produced emollients are often used in haircare and skincare products to create a smooth texture. To mimic the effect we use vegetable oils, butters and waxes instead. Look out for words ending in '-thicone' and '-oxane', to avoid silicones.
6. GENETICALLY MODIFIED INGREDIENTS - Not enough is known about the long-term implications. Many GM ingredients are designed to withstand high levels of pesticides, but we prefer to support organic farming, avoiding agrochemical traces and protecting wildlife. Look out for GM-free products.
7. SYNTHETIC FRAGRANCES - Often hidden under the term 'Parfum' or 'Fragrance' on ingredients lists, some synthetic fragrances can trigger allergies and asthma. We use 100% pure essential oils to naturally fragrance our beauty products. Instead of listing our essential oils collectively as a 'blend', we choose to list them individually to show they're all natural oils.
8. BHT - This petroleum derived ingredient is used to prevent products from oxidising. There are scientific debates with uncertain conclusions around its safety and possible link as a potential carcinogen. It's also toxic to the aquatic environment. Instead, we use vitamin-rich ingredients to create a similar antioxidant effect. Look out for BHT on ingredient lists.
9. MINERAL OIL - Often found in baby oils and balms, mineral oil is derived from petroleum – a non-renewable resource from a polluting industry. Our baby products contain a nourishing sunflower oil base instead. Look out for Paraffinum Liquidum and Petrolatum to avoid mineral oil.
10. TRICLOSAN - An antimicrobial and antifungal preservative often used in deodorants/antiperspirants, mouthwashes and toothpaste. Some research indicates it may contribute to antibiotic resistance in bacteria. We use vegetable derived ingredients instead, such as cleansing shikimic acid in our roll on deodorants. Look out for Triclosan on ingredient lists.
We create our health and beauty by using the maximum organic, natural and wild-harvested ingredients available, making them kinder to the earth – and kinder to you.
Animal Testing
We have never tested on animals, it is unnecessary and cruel. We're certified by Cruelty Free International.
We Believe in Trading Fairly
Fair prices and decent working conditions in exchange for high quality, sustainably-sourced ingredients.
We use ethically traded ingredients throughout our ranges. Here are some of the fantastic organisations we are proud to support.
The Fairtrade Foundation is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world.
Fair for Life
Fair for Life aims to ensure fair and positive relations between producers and their cooperatives, workers and employers, sellers and buyers on the world market, while maintaining high standards.
Established in 2008, the FairWild Foundation promotes the sustainable use of wild-collected ingredients, with a fair deal for all those involved throughout the supply chain.
Certified organic
Our pure herb and plant extracts and essential oils are approved by the UK's Soil Association, who are internationally recognized for their high standards, though as we source globally, some ingredients may be certified at source by a number of similar international organizations such as USDA, NOP, Skal, etc. Foreign certification is always checked for compliance with Soil Association standards before being approved for our use.
More about the Soil Association
Formed in 1946 to address concerns over intensive farming practices introduced after WWII, especially the introduction of pesticides such as DDT, the Soil Association has an illustrious history of campaigning for the responsible, sustainable and ethical management of our resources.
With a reputation for upholding the 'gold standard' of certification, and representing 80% of organic goods sold in the UK, the Soil Association's strict criteria applies standards over and above the minimum legal requirements. It is considered one of the most stringent of organic certification bodies anywhere in the world.
Over 60% of the Neal's Yard Remedies product range is certified by the Soil Association. Even where a product cannot be certified, we still use organic ingredients that have been certified by the Soil Association or the USDA, to ensure the highest possible organic percentage.
Positive Luxury
We are delighted to have been awarded 'Positive Brand' status by Positive Luxury, the global award winning membership programme so look out for the butterfly! Positive Luxury's Butterfly mark is the world's first global interactive trust mark developed to communicate the transparency of sustainable practices enabling consumers to make informed choices at the point of sale.

Look for the Zero
We have been running the 'Beat the Microbead' campaign since 2012. The objective of the campaign is to prevent plastic microbeads in personal care products ending up in the sea. We have asked consumers to stop using products containing microbeads. The Beat the Microbead app makes it easy to check whether a product contains plastic.
However, recent research (UNEP report 'Plastic in Cosmetics', 2015) shows that many more types of plastics are added to personal care products than previously thought. It also shows that some plastic microbeads are replaced with bio-based/bio-degradable microbeads which do not break down in water. On top of this, the use of nanoplastics in cosmetics is a worrying development. It makes it very difficult for consumers to choose 'plastic free' products.
This is why we change the burden of proof. Instead of consumers having to check and choose, we are asking producers to declare their care products free of microplastics. Plastic free products will be included in the new Zero category of the Beat the Microbead website and app. The brands that do not use microplastics can carry the 'Zero plastic inside' logo. In one glance, this logo makes it clear for consumers that a product is guaranteed 100% free of microplastics.
Neal's Yard Remedies is 100% free of microplastics:

It looks like the documentation magma_dgeqrf functions is not up-to-date:
It seems that the upper part of the matrix isn't R contrary to what is stated in the documentation.
Code: Select all
A (input/output) DOUBLE_PRECISION array on the GPU, dimension (LDDA,N)
On entry, the M-by-N matrix A.
On exit, the elements on and above the diagonal of the array
contain the min(M,N)-by-N upper trapezoidal matrix R (R is
upper triangular if m >= n); the elements below the diagonal,
with the array TAU, represent the orthogonal matrix Q as a
product of min(m,n) elementary reflectors (see Further
magma_dgeqrf3 documentation has the same kind of issue but it has a correct description:
The issue is of course not major but I prefer to report it if someone else wonders why he doesn't get R as expected.DGEQRF3 computes a QR factorization of a DOUBLE_PRECISION M-by-N matrix A:
A = Q * R. This version stores the triangular matrices T used in
the block QR factorization so that Q can be applied directly (i.e.,
without being recomputed) later. As a result, the application
of Q is much faster. The upper triangular matrices for V have 0s
in them and the corresponding parts of the upper triangular R are
stored separately.

Opening songs
OP 1-Seishoujo ryoujiki (Ali project)
Ending songs
ED 1-Hikari no Rasenritsu (Kukui)
Genre:Adventure, comedy, drama, supernatural
Heres another anime review to speed things up. This time, we conclude the rozen maiden saga, with the review of rozen maiden traumend. Traumend was released before overture, but the events of traumend take place after it, so naturally I watched this last. Concluding the rozen maiden series made me one sad puppy, it was a truly unique series that managed to keep me entertained and remained emotional at times. You can easily see where this is going, traumend is ever bit as good, of maybe even better than the original, and definetely beats out overture.
Song time! The opening song is seishoujo ryoujiki by ali project (I guess they are already staples for the series), and up to date, it is one of my favourite ali project songs. It kicks ass on so many levels, I definetely recommend giving this song a listen. The ending hikari no rasenritsu by kukui, and I'll be honest, I never really listened to the full thing once. The 1st 30 seconds just bore me out and I couldnt give a damn. The openign animations for seishouko ryoujiki were pretty damn amazing, by the way.
Traumend is a great anime that viewers of the original will enjoy alot. It has a slight change in the way the episodes play out, but more or less, its the same good shit from before, with even more characters. Also, this time round, its much more emotional, and I had to hold back tears during one scene (I wont spoil, but I'll leave you all to guess). Theres also much more serious stuff going on this time round, and the concluding episodes sure put the action scale on a whole new level. All in all, its just the first show all over again, trading in some of the comedy parts for more serious parts. For a final product that the original has been building up, traumend is something seriously great to watch as it unfolds.
|Meet barasuishou, the scary 7th doll.
Theres nothing much to say if you did watch the original, just expect things to be more serious. Otherwise, traumend is great, and if you watched the original, theres no reason to miss this one. Im still kind of puzzled and confused about the half assed ending, however.
