|Joystick Sensitivity
We built an arm type device and i have the joysticks set to control the arms and the other joysticks set to control the wheels, but the joysticks for the arms are too strong. They flail all over and flip over the robot. I want the joysticks to be less sensitive so the motors run at half power. I tried using buttons for it in my code, but it doesn't seem to work. My code is really simple because when I try to change the threshold or anything like that then the whole robot begins being all spastic and shaking. It's not the motors or anything. Can anyone give me some advice? Thank You. Here is my code:

|Re: Joystick Sensitivity
I would suggest to only set the joystick values to the motors if they reach a certain point, the joysticks can come to a rest at like 1 or -1, thus making the motor move a bit, this is similar to what I do:
And then for your buttons, I have never used the joy2Btn(5) as a boolean, so I'm not sure what effect that has, I have always done:
So hopefully that may fix some of your issues

|Re: Joystick Sensitivity
This is correct, and is called a threshold or deadband value (although 40 is usually a little bit high for these values, and a value of ~10 may work better). This doesn't help with the speed issues, but rather with the joystick not returning to a dead center positional value of 0. To cut the applied power being sent to the motor(s) in half, simply divide the joystick values in half before assigning them to the motors (I've made some other tweaks to the code as well, such as checking each joystick's value individually):
Since the buttons only return a 0 or a 1, you can use them directly as a boolean condition in control statements without having to compare them to a 0 or a 1; this is one of the nice features of buttons and switches (and, if you research it enough, is why things like DIP switches and jumpers were so popular on earlier computers). However, writing out the comparison doesn't hurt, and can actually form a good coding habit as well as making it easier to see what the code is doing.

|Re: Joystick Sensitivity
Which motor(s) is the arm? What is your arm design? Would it be able to hold position if the motor power is cut? If it can't, what if you push the joystick up to raise the arm and then release the joystick? The motor power becomes zero and the arm will drop like a dead bird? These are important questions to answer in order to determine how to write code to control it.

Detecting a drag
To detect a drag is performed Dragme is listening to all mousedown and mouseup events. If the mouse stays down longer than 100ms Dragme starts to poll the mouse position. By polling the mouse position it's possible to detect if the mouse pointer is draged to the border of the screen.
Should Dragme become active?
Sometimes the mouse is draged for another reason than a drag and drop action and it isn't desired that Dragme becomes active. The most applications make use of the public drag and drop pasteboard to copy the dragged data from one application to another. Dragme checks for changes on the drag and drop pasteboard to determine that a drag is performed that should be detected by Dragme. If no change happend on this pasteboard during the drag, Dragme won't get active.
Some applications use their own private pasteboard for drag and drop operations. In this case a drag won't be detected by Dragme because it can only check the public pasteboard. If you notice that a drag from one application isn't detected by Dragme, you can deactivate the pasteboard check for this application. You do this by choosing "deactivate PB-count check for this applcation" in the menu.
If the "PB-count check" is deactivated Dragme will use another method to figure out if Dragme should become active. This is called the "Accessibility check". It uses the accessibility functions to check the object below the mouse pointer when the drag starts. If it isn't a item that normal can be dragged, Dragme won't become active. You can deactivate this check too by choosing "deactivate Accessibility-Check for this application". If both checks are deactivated Dragme will become active for every drag to the border of the screen.

Last week Kastle Skis and Griffin Post stopped by Skiershop.com in Stowe, VT. Griffin was on the East Coast swing for TGR?s ?One For The Road,? movie tour and I was lucky enough to sit down with him for a few minutes. For those of you who haven?t seen TGR?s newest flick, it?s awesome, and within one year Griffin has gone from crushing the FWT to slaying impressive lines for the big screen.
So how was the transition from competing to filming?
I was competing for about 5 years and it has always been my goal to film. I initially got a shot to film with TGR for some B-Roll in Jackson, and then had the opportunity to head to Alaska ? it was a dream come true! The biggest different is the conditions, competitions aren?t always in soft snow and you only have one shot at your run. While I thought filming would give me more chances for a line, it ends up being the same – because often times things sluff, sun disappears, etc.
You are also a contributor for ESPN Freeskiing, and I read your blog that stated, ?If in ten years all I?ve done is win some competitions and film some segments, I?ll be pretty disappointed in myself.? I think that?s great, care to elaborate?
I think that as a professional skiers, we are lucky and it is my obligation to affect the ski world and beyond in a positive way. I really like programs like Protect Our Winters, and I?d like to do more with organizations such as theirs.
You and Todd Ligare were both given ESPN Freeskiing?s Breakthrough Performance Award, how does that feel?
I?ve known Todd since I was 12 years old, and he was already established with TGR; it was great to ski and film with him, we feed off each other, have similar style, and the trust is there. Getting the award ? it?s great to have the recognition, my first year with TGR went far better than I could have ever imagined.
The Kastle big mountain team is pretty stacked – If you were to play a big mountain version of H.O.R.S.E, who would win: Hugo Harrison, Chris Davenport, or you?
Laughs? Well I think it would go down like this – Chris and I would think we?re pretty good, then Hugo would come and mop the floor with us, more laughs…
Thanks for the chat Griffin!

Culture Trip stands with
Black Lives Matter
Watch these seven films that can re-condition our mainstream cinema male gaze to understand how women of Satyajit Ray films cannot be reduced to a cliché. A masterstroke!
Based on a short story by Narendranath Mitra, the film depicted the beginning of the middle-class working wife in a Bengali family of Kolkata. A realistic depiction of socio-economic changes in urban life is shown through Arati (essayed by Madhabi Mukherjee), who transforms from a stay-at-home housewife to a working wife to share the burden of her extended family. The in-laws and husband are struggling to come to terms with this cultural shock. The film depicts beautifully the sense of achievement, independence, camaraderie and conflict that comes with the work-life scenario. It is also Jaya Bachchan's debut film.
Based on a short story by Provatkumar Mukhopadhyay, the film is based in 19th-century rural Bengal, where a 17-year-old Dayamoyee is hailed and proclaimed as a goddess by her father-in-law. The story is a gripping tale of superstitions and the victimization of women at the whims of mysticism and blind faith. Daya, who is unable and later unwilling to break out of this goddess-like avatar imposed on her, is essayed heart-wrenchingly by Sharmila Tagore.
A set of three short films based on Rabindranath Tagore's stories depicts three different female protagonists and the complex psychology of young adolescent women. The Postmaster is about a young orphan girl, Ratan (Chandana Banerjee), eight to ten years of age, who works as a maid in the village postmaster's house and how the kindness of the new postmaster helps her in learning to read and write. The second story is Monihara (The Lost Jewels), a psychological thriller about a bored married woman, Manimalika (Kanika Majumdar), in a large lonesome mansion and how she finds companionship in the twinkling pieces of her jewelry. The third film is Samapti (The Conclusion), the story of a carefree girl, Mrinmoyee (Aparna Sen), who spends time on swings and chasing squirrels and her transition from a rebellious teenager to a woman in love.
Based on the novella Nastanirh (The Broken Nest) by Bengali author Rabindranath Tagore, the film narrates the story of a lonely housewife, Charu (played brilliantly by Madhabi Mukherjee), who lives a wealthy idle life and is ignored by a workaholic husband. It also shows how the arrival of her husband's young cousin awakens her sexuality and ambitions. The film deftly depicts the dilemma of Charulata and the grey areas of her strong emotional feelings of dissatisfaction in marriage and the confusions of relationships.
Ghare-Baire is adapted from a Rabindranath Tagore novel by the same title. Shot in the backdrop of the Swadeshi movement, it is a love triangle between a Swadeshi leader, a liberal and a wife named Bimala (Swatilekha Chatterjee), who is encouraged towards discovering the world outside her domestic life.
This film marks the directorial debut of Satyajit Ray and is based on a Bengali novel by Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay. It revolves around the life of Apu and his elder sister, Durga. Even though The Apu Trilogy, comprising of three feature-length films (Pather Panchali 1955, Aparajito 1956 and Apur Sansar 1959), is about the life of Apu, the female characters are crafted with utmost care. The elder sister, Durga (Uma Dasgupta), is portrayed as inquisitive, caring and a soul close to nature. The mother, Sarbojaya (Karuna Banerjee), is seen in the first two films as a complete character who maintains her dignity through the ordeals of poverty-stricken village life and is later reduced to grief by the loss of a child. The wife, Aparna (Sharmila Tagore), brings conjugal bliss to Apu's life in Apur Sansar and is seen scribbling a message on her husband's cigarette packet, reminding him to smoke less! All these women affect Apu's life and learnings in various ways.
Ray's films were way ahead of his time. His male characters undergo transformations as they spend some time away from the city and come in contact with the beautifully juxtaposed urban and tribal realities and with women who aren't afraid of their own sexuality and are open to experiment.
His nuanced portrayal of women issues did not pitch women aggressively as a tool to present hatred towards men or undermine their position. He carves out characters and their settings to uphold women's rights but not at the expense of men.

The Ford Transit is a lot of things: powerful, efficient, safe. Yet where the Transit excels more than any other commercial van is its versatility. All in all, there are 58 different configurations. This is certainly part of what makes the Ford Transit America's best-selling commercial van.
Ford recently spotlighted some of the coolest Transit vans out on the road today…
# 1 – Surfer's Healing's Woody Van – This mod makes you think of The Beach Boys and "Surfin' USA." But as cool as it looks, this van has a serious mission. It is designed to transport life jackets and surfboards to beaches so that surf instructors can teach autistic children how to surf.
# 2 – Schultz's Guest House's Dog Rescue Van – This is another Ford Transit designed for a noble mission. Lined with secure cages for transporting dogs, the Schultz Guest House van rescues dogs scheduled for euthanization and takes them to a rescue farm.
# 3 – The Grateful Grail Coffeeshop – In a way, this is just another rescue van…rescuing folks suffering from immobility and a caffeine craving. Brian and David Seward designed the rolling coffeeshop themselves.
See lots of other cool Ford Transit mods here!

September 7, 2019
Robert Mueller – pitched as an incorruptible beacon of justice when he was tasked with (unsuccessfully) hunting down ties between Donald Trump and Russia – was nothing more than a hatchet man for the deep state, who participated in a coverup of Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11 according to a new report by the New York Post's Paul Sperry – citing former FBI investigators and a new lawsuit by 9/11 victims.
According to Sperry, Mueller stonewalled after FBI agents discovered evidence of "multiple, systemic efforts by the Saudi government to assist the hijackers in the lead-up to the 9/11 attacks," while the former FBI director allegedly "covered up evidence pointing back to the Saudi Embassy and Riyadh — and may have even misled Congress about what he knew."
"He was the master when it came to covering up the kingdom's role in 9/11," said Sharon Premoli, a September 11th survivor who was pulled out of the rubble of the World Trade Center, and is now suing Saudi Arabia as a plaintiff in a new lawsuit.
"In October of 2001, Mueller shut down the government's investigation after only three weeks, and then took part in the Bush [administration's] campaign to block, obfuscate and generally stop anything about Saudi Arabia from being released," she added.
"Any letting the Saudis off the hook came from the White House," said former Agent Mark Rossini, adding "I can still see that photo of Bandar and Bush enjoying cigars on the balcony of the White House two days after 9/11."
Speaking with multiple FBI case agents, Sperry lists a series of incidents describing Mueller 'throwing up roadblocks' in front of his own investigators – "making it easier for Saudi suspects to escape questioning." And according to the lawsuit, Mueller "deep-sixed what evidence his agents did manage to uncover."

Alphabe-Thursday: The Letter X
"X" marks the particular spot
Where Cupid's arrows aimed, then shot,
Piercing the lovers' hardened hearts.
Her eyes eXamined his face anew.
EXcited, delighted, his ardor grew.
EXpectations eXpose a fresh new start.
In love's embrace their dreams become bold,
EXalting in one another's hold.
Two souls...eXorcised when demons depart.

The Celebration of Senegal is the end of semester performance by the students in the sabar dance class (BLKST 263/THETR 263). This provides the students the opportunity to share what they have learned with friends and the university community. It is a great way to end the semester and celebrate the sabar tradition that the Sing Sing family shared with Suffolk University.

A natural gas blast hit on Monday one of the blocks of a 10-storey building in Magnitogorsk, Chelyabinsk Region, damaging 48 apartments. The fate of dozens of people remains unknown.
Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived on Monday in Magnitogorsk at the operational headquarters of the Ministry of Emergencies created at the site of the incident and personally inspected the collapsed building.
The governor of Chelyabinsk region, Boris Dubrovsky, provided explanations to Putin regarding the building collapse.
The president also instructed to create a government commission for the elimination of the consequences of the gas explosion in the residential building in Magnitogorsk.
The body of an 14th victim was recovered from the rubble of a residential building that collapsed in the Russian city of Magnitogorsk, the press service for the regional office of the Russian Emergencies Ministry told Sputnik on Wednesday.
On New Year's Eve, a natural gas blast hit one of the sections of a 10-storey block of flats in Magnitogorsk, a city in Russia's Chelyabinsk Region, fully destroying 35 apartments and damaging 10 others.
The fate of dozens of people remains unknown. Rescue works are hindered by the risk of debris collapsing.
Russian President Vladimir Putin cut his New Year's holiday plans short to visit the accident site on the day of the disaster; 2 January was declared a day of mourning in Chelyabinsk Region for those killed.

"Chat" with the iOS in Business Program with Clare.ai
If you have visited applemobility.hk lately, you might have noticed a bright blue dot with a conversation bubble on the bottom right of the page. This is the Clare.AI chatbot built specifically for the iOS in Business Program. The iOS in Business chatbot was built to help partners, customers, and those just searching for information to get all their frequently asked questions in a human, organic way – via conversation.
This is called conversational commerce.
Conversational commerce refers to the trend toward interacting with businesses through messaging and chat bots like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Talk, and WeChat.
What are Chatbots?
Chatbots are computer programs designed to simulate a conversation with humans. A user typically interacts with a chatbot via a mobile messenger (such as Facebook Messenger, Skype or Whatsapp), SMS or website. This is made possible through the application of natural language processing (NLP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The former allows us to understand the intent of the user, while the latter allows us to deliver answers that are consistent and useful based on the data and other specific needs of businesses.
Why Are Chatbots Relevant?
Rise of Messaging Apps
Mobile messaging apps such as Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger and WeChat have overtaken social networking apps as the dominant communication tools on mobile devices. Facebook Messenger has 900 million users and WeChat has almost 700 million.
Technology Advancement
The Chatbot was first created fifty years ago, but early versions lacked support and required lots of development cost. With companies like Facebook pledging to include chatbot in its long term road map, it has greatly reduce the cost and provide greater access to cutting edge technology for companies to implement a chatbot.
Chatbots offer companies of virtually any size a huge opportunity to reduce costs, improve customer satisfaction and increase sales.
App Fatigue
App fatigue refers to consumers who are tired of installing, updating and learning how to use mobile apps. With the average number of apps used per person per month continuing to decline, people are showing signs of app fatigue. Indeed, most people won't even use an app more than once after they downloaded it.
Improving Customer Satisfaction
- 85% used online channel for support
- 40% expect response time within the hour
Pain Point
Increasing volumes of support tickets require more manpower. It is unscalable and unsustainable for even the biggest organizations. Uber removed live support after it went live for only one month.
How Can Chatbots Help?
While chatbots will not completely replace live agents, they can handle mundane and repetitive queries and requests and leave the more important matters to human live agents.
Streamlining Operations
- 20% customer service turnover rate
- USD 3000 one-off cost to hire a new employee
Pain Point
High customer service turnover rate and additional cost to re-hire a new employee makes maintaining an efficient customer support team exceptionally hard.
How Can Chatbots Help?
Implementing chatbots can allow an organization with a team of 100 customer support agents to save up to 40% costs.
Increasing Sales
4 Trillion USD worth of merchandise is abandoned in online shopping carts every year
Pain Point
63% of this abandoned merchandise is recoverable sales based on Business Insider reports.
How Can Chatbots Help?
It is foreseeable that in the future this number will only increase. Chatbots can be used to proactively reach out when you detect a likely abandoning cart. The chatbot can also offer alternatives to increase these convertible sales.
Start with Clare.AI

We specialize in self-service across platforms. Our mission is to provide a personalized customer experience for everyone.

FLUSHING, Queens — A group of felines stuck behind a wall in Queens were able to find a way out — but now their whereabouts are a mystery.
The cats were stuck behind the 15 foot wall for three days, likely thirsty and hungry when PIX11 arrived on the scene last Thursday. After the story aired, city officials, and those with Animal Care Centers of NYC and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals tried to help the cats.
They put up a ladder to look over the wall, but were surprised to see no kittens. It seems the felines had escaped through a small hole at the back part of the ally.
One of the kittens was found roaming around where the ally once was, and was captured and treated, Carol Yao, a trained animal rescuer who works with organizations Kitty Kind and Angelico, said on Sunday.
Hopes are high they will locate the rest of the kittens on the building property.
For months, the cats had been living in a narrow alley-like area between an apartment building and garage on Northern Boulevard. They won the hearts of people in this neighborhood who stopped by to feed them before someone erected a wall trapping the cats inside.
"There are so many inside," Yao said. "How can people just build this brick wall and starve these kittens to death?"
For weeks, she has been feeding the group of about 10 cats to gain their trust with the ultimate goal of catching them. She was shocked when she arrived to see the wall.
"I came in, there's a new brick wall, absolutely closes the opening. All the cats were trapped in there," Yao said. "They have adult cats in there and lots of kittens 3 to 4 months old at most."
With the cats out of sight, nobody knew the condition of the felines.
One cat that did escape before the wall went up would wander on the other side and gaze up, apparently trying to find a way to get back with its family.

The vast majority of Britain's office workers would rather spend their lunch hour alone rather than socialise with co-workers, new research has revealed.
As many as 80 per cent of office workers would choose to read a book, exercise or even have a sleep in their lunch hour rather than spend time with their colleagues, with just 20 per cent claiming they'd choose to socialise.
In a survey of 1,500 UK office workers, conducted by office supply company Viking, more than half admitted they wanted to be left to eat in peace during their lunch hour most days, whereas 28 per cent said they preferred to read. Some 17 per cent said they like the idea of having a lunch hour siesta.
The survey asked respondents how fulfilled they were by their lunch hour activities, and although 65 per cent stated they wished they were able to relax more during the break, another 63 per cent claimed they found the time either "very" or "quite" fulfilling.
Part of the reason office workers may feel the need to relax more during their lunch hour is because many often work through their allocated break time, or at least through some of it.
The research revealed that 67 per cent of office workers continue working through their lunch hour at least once a week, with a third of people doing so three or more times a week.
Commenting on the research findings, Viking's European SEO marketing manager, Chris Evans, said: "The lunch break is a great time for employees to recharge and it seems like in the UK, most people would prefer to do so alone.
"While some well-earned 'me-time' is great, what that often means is employees aren't leaving their desks as often as they should be. Although lunch culture isn't as huge in the UK as it is in Mediterranean countries (for example), that isn't to say employees shouldn't be encouraged to get up and about over lunch so they stay motivated."
Five favourite lunch hour activities
(1) Exercising – 19 per cent
(2) Using a phone – 18 per cent
(3) Shopping – 17 per cent
(4) Using social media – 15 per cent
(5) Playing with pets – 11 per cent

If there's one thing I hear more than anything else from other instructional coaches, it's the frustration with the multitude of tasks competing for our time and the struggle to find the time to get everything done that we need to. So many coaches, myself included, look back on periods of time (the past week, month, day) and wonder what, exactly, we accomplished for all the energy that we expended.
Despite our district having a clearly defined evaluation tool that outlines the expectations for our job, coaches often end up spreading themselves an inch deep and a mile wide. It's as if the evaluation tool is considered a "minimum bar", similar to the "recommended passenger limit" on a subway car, and the school faculty or administration are the uniformed people on Japanese subways pushing "just one more" passenger in until the doors almost burst from overload. Many coaches around the country are doing tasks that stretch the definition of coach: substituting when subs cannot be found, helping at field day, providing interventions or enrichment activities for students, copying papers for teachers, or creating master schedules.
Somehow, we've got to figure out how to prioritize what's most important for coaches to be doing. It reminds me of a metaphor I once saw for prioritizing the big, important things in life: if you consider your life to be a jar into which all the events in your life must fit, and the most important things are rocks, while the least important things are sand, it becomes obvious which you should fit into the jar of life first. If you allow the little things in life - the sand – to take priority, then there's no room left over for the bigger important "rocks". But if you make space for the rocks first, then all the sand will trickle through and find a way to fit. Only then will you have a balanced life with room for the things most important to you as well as those little things that just come up.
Coaches need to find a way to fit in the big rocks of coaching teachers and let the sand of "little things that come up" trickle through and find their own space. First we must decide: what are those big rocks of coaching? Is it modeling in classrooms? Extended time spent with a teacher gradually releasing instruction? Conversations with teachers exploring professional decision making? Once those big rocks are found, then they must be given priority, and that involves convincing your administration of the importance of the big rocks, and the inconsequence of the sand.
How have you been able to prioritize the important things in your life?

The Rocks and Sand of Coaching

SOOOOOOO true! I have already seen this in my short 4 months of coaching. However, I have learned in my personal life that not having room for the "rocks" ends up causing catastrophe. Thanks for helping me place my coaching rocks in the jar. You're the best!

Help for hard of hearing children has come a long way in the last 50 years. As recently as the 1970s, children who were diagnosed with severe or profound hearing loss had very few options. Today, more than 90% of all newborns are screened for hearing loss. That means that deaf and hard of hearing children are identified earlier, and their parents can begin rehabilitation programs in a more timely way.
"The result is that the younger the children are who begin rehabilitation…the quicker their auditory skills develop and close the gap significantly with children with normal hearing," said Dr. John House, president of the House Ear Institute, and a specialist in the fields of otology and neuro-otology.
For deaf or hard of hearing newborns, early diagnosis and intervention in the first six months is critical. Studies indicate that if children with hearing loss receive treatment before they are 6 months old, they often will develop age-appropriate communication and language skills — as good as those of children with normal hearing — by the time they start kindergarten or first grade.
While many children are born with normal hearing, they may begin to have hearing problems, as they grow older. That's why regular hearing tests are administered until children are 5 years old.
[stextbox id="black" float="true" align="right" width="500″]
Your child will do what he can, but the responsibility for his language development is on you, the parent.
[/stextbox]If the screening test results raise the possibility that your child may have hearing loss, it's important to work with your pediatrician to make an appointment for a complete hearing test with a hearing expert, called an audiologist, as soon as possible.
The reason for the urgency is that deaf, and hard of hearing children, need to learn speech and language differently. Often, early intervention and assistance – also referred to as language habilitation – will allow your child to enroll in a mainstream school.
Since parents and siblings are typically a child's first, and most important, language models, they play a critical role in helping a child learn language. Chris Butchko's severely to profoundly deaf son is now in middle school, sporting a 4.0 GPA. Butchko is certain his son's language acquisition, despite the significant delay of a hearing loss diagnosis, was key to the boy's current academic and social success.
"Your child will do what he can, but the responsibility for his language development is on you, the parent," Butchko said. "You need to teach him how to listen and react for sounds. You must teach him how to make sounds that are real and meaningful to him, and to the people around him."
One key step toward language acquisition is to immerse your child in activities and programs that practice language-facilitating strategies. For families that live too far from a hearing center offering these programs, there are online courses and tools available.
When searching and evaluating programs, just be mindful of outdated child-centered services that minimize parental involvement. Look for a parent-centered approach to teaching language, similar to the one the Butchkos found at the John Tracy Clinic, a diagnostic and educational center for children with hearing loss. Those language acquisition strategies include :
Dr. House admires the emotional and financial investment parents and families put into helping a hard of hearing child, especially when it comes to learning speech. "I would say all the parents that I deal with want to do anything possible to allow their child to have the best advantage," said Dr. House.
But it's not just early language development that your child with hearing loss needs. Advocating, and speaking up for your child, is also vitally important to ongoing language acquisition. Whether it's at school, dealing with your insurance company, or even handling extended family members that may or may not know how to best interact with your child, dispelling prejudices, fighting against discrimination, and banishing isolation are all critical to her success with language.
"One of the problems with hearing loss is that it's kind of an invisible problem," said Dr. House. "If the person is blind and they have a white cane or a seeing-eye dog, everybody can relate to that. But if someone has a severe hearing loss, it doesn't show. And so therefore, people will be impatient with them."
Even with all that you do for your hard of hearing child, communication at times can be strained. Don't worry: that's to be expected. Your child's inability to communicate may occasionally make you feel frustrated, or as if there is a distance between the two of you. Be patient. The more effort you put into your child's learning and habilitation, the greater his language ability will be.
With all that is required of you on this journey, it's easy for other family members to feel overlooked. Experts agree, however: The parents of children with hearing loss should make spending time with their spouse and their hearing children a priority. Even if it's just 10 or 15 minutes a day, taking the time to connect with other family members can help maintain open lines of communication.
Today, more than ever, there is hope for language acquisition for children who are hard of hearing. Chris Butchko, understands that, these days, nearly anything possible for children with severe to profound hearing loss.
"We've always said about deafness that it's the gentlest handicap," said the father of two. "We've been fortunate that Johnny was born when he was born, because now there is so much more available to the deaf community – from hearing aids to digital hearing aids to cochlear implant technology.

Hello! First off, my name is Pizzi and I am a professional scuba diver, nature photographer, blogger and environmental economist. Growing up outside Boston, Massachusetts, I became interested in science and the environment at an early age. I watched and read all things nature, and started creating a bucket list of destinations and animal encounters. My childhood idol was the late great environmentalist/TV personality Stephen Robert Irwin (RIP). He showed me the intricate relationships between wildlife and our planet, and inspired me to interact with and respect wildlife when I was a young kid. Much of the knowledge I have gained up to this point in life started with him.
In 2010, I enrolled in the University of Massachusetts and began getting into environmental policy and economics, as well as scuba diving. I received my basic PADI open water dive certification in the Florida Keys, and then spent an entire summer getting my professional certification in Honduras, where I was able to dive three times a day and assist in the battle against the invasive lionfish species.
After graduating with a B.Sc. in Environmental Economics, I decided to continue my education, and received an M.Sc. in Environmental Economics in 2016. The focus during my graduate education revealed how economics and politics can affect the health of the environment, along with the people and organisms living in it. My research focused on deforestation, carbon emissions, and sustainable palm oil in Southeast Asia. Since graduating, I have been traveling and diving all over North America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania and am now up to 18 countries and over 400 dives! I currently reside in the coastal Californian city of Santa Barbara, where I work as an environmental economist to solve fisheries, land-use, and climate change challenges.
This website will serve to spread awareness of a broad range of environmental issues ranging from climate change to deforestation to overfishing, and explain complex studies and policies in terms that everyone can understand. I will also share the beauty of nature through pictures and video footage in hopes of emphasizing why our environment needs protection. As for travel, I will be sharing some crazy backpacking stories, general travel tips, and destination information including where to eat, where to unwind, and nightlife hotspots etc. I will try to provide detailed posts on the greatest scuba diving spots around the world, the best seasons to visit, what you should expect to see, and of course the costs. In additional to all this, I will be sharing some of my favorite uplifting tunes with you, because traveling and music go hand in hand!

Even in a religious culture that advocates the murder of victims as honorable, fathers and brothers are typically the perpetrators of horrific violence against female family members whose only crime was to be the victim of another, the killing of a child by its mother stands out as particularly unnatural and depraved.
Such a heinous act occurred recently in Sohag, Egypt when a mother of a two-year-old child took the life of her child rather than protect it from violent sexual assault by its own grandfather.
A Muslim mother identified only as "Merfat" was awakened by screams in the middle of the night and found her father, Faraj, in the act of raping her daughter.
Rather than acting out of a natural, protective instinct, the 23-year-old mother chose to shield her father from scandal as taught by Muslim theology and Sharia law.
Merfat told authorities that she took her daughter, little Grace Ahmed, from the grandfather, placed her in a tub and held her head under water until the child drown.
Alik Akhmim, Chief Detective of the police in Sohag told Egyptian reporters that "traces of blood" had been found in the little girl's anus, evidencing the degree of force and injury the child endured at the hands of her mother's father.
This kind of act is referred to as an "honor killing" thought to place the reputation of the family above that of any individual member, and which is used to punish the victim rather than hold the perpetrator accountable.
Murdering rape victims is common in countries and communities that adhere to Sharia law where the crime is rarely reported for fear of exposing the family to shame.
"Honor killing" is no longer limited to predominantly Muslim countries or the Middle East. According to a study commissioned by the United States Department of Justice, honor killings are on the rise in America as Muslim families immigrate and bring the barbaric practice with them.
The practice is now an even more concerning problem in the United Kingdom where 11,000 reported cases in the past five years are said to be merely the tip of the iceberg.
In the case of Grace Ahmed's murder, at least, police have arrested her grandfather, Faraj, for rape and her mother, Merfat, for murder so that justice may, in fact, still be done, although far too late to save the child.

Member Since:
Jan 27, 1986
Goal Type:
Olympic Trials Qualifier
Running Accomplishments:
Best marathon: 2:23:57 (2007, St. George). Won the Top of Utah Marathon twice (2003,2004). Won the USATF LDR circuit in Utah in 2006.
Draper Days 5 K 15:37 (2004)
Did not know this until June 2012, but it turned out that I've been running with spina bifida occulta in L-4 vertebra my entire life, which explains the odd looking form, struggles with the top end speed, and the poor running economy (cannot break 16:00 in 5 K without pushing the VO2 max past 75).
Short-Term Running Goals:
Qualify for the US Olympic Trials. With the standard of 2:19 on courses with the elevation drop not exceeding 450 feet this is impossible unless I find an uncanny way to compensate for the L-4 defect with my muscles. But I believe in miracles.
Long-Term Running Goals:
2:08 in the marathon. Become a world-class marathoner. This is impossible unless I find a way to fill the hole in L-4 and make it act healthy either by growing the bone or by inserting something artificial that is as good as the bone without breaking anything important around it. Science does not know how to do that yet, so it will take a miracle. But I believe in miracles.
I was born in 1973. Grew up in Moscow, Russia. Started running in 1984 and so far have never missed more than 3 consecutive days. Joined the LDS Church in 1992, and came to Provo, Utah in 1993 to attend BYU. Served an LDS mission from 1994-96 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Got married soon after I got back. My wife Sarah and I are parents of eleven children: Benjamin, Jenny, Julia, Joseph, Jacob, William, Stephen, Matthew, Mary, Bella. and Leigha. We home school our children.
I am a software engineer/computer programmer/hacker whatever you want to call it, and I am currently working for RedX. Aside from the Fast Running Blog, I have another project to create a device that is a good friend for a fast runner. I called it Fast Running Friend.

A.M. Ran Heart of Holladay 5 K in 16:38, 9th place. The race was very competitive as expected. The whole family came. It does not happen very often anymore due to the difficulty of bringing everybody at an early hour. But Benjamin and Jenny were racing, and Sarah wanted to go to a special discount grocery store (NPS) in Salt Lake, so we all came.
Warmed up 2 miles. The gun went off, and I really did not like being in a 5 K. I wanted it to be a 10 K. But you cannot place high in the circuit without running 5 Ks, and we were also doing a campaign for Kim to get into St. George, so I was there. Plus a little push and a kick in the pants a hard 5 K gives you is good once in a while. A fairly sizeable pack pulled away. I considered going with them, but then I saw that Nate Hornok and Matt Harmer were going out a little slower, and I fell for the temptation to run with them. The slow start was right for them but wrong for me. They would later be strong on the uphill if they started slow, but I would run it at the same pace regardless of how I started. I knew that, but I erred on the side of laziness anyway. First mile in 5:14 instead of a more appropriate 5:08 on a slight rolling uphill.
The second mile starts with a slight up, then goes down, and flattens out. Matt dropped back a bit, we passed James Moore (Fiddy), Nate pulled me up closer to Steve Ashbaker, John Coles, and Dave Spence. Josh Steffen was a bit ahead of them, then Dennis Simonaitis and Alexander Thomas together, and Teren Jameson ahead of everyone. I caught a 3 K split - 9:41. By that time Nate was starting to press the pace, and I was barely hanging on. The feeling was odd, though previously experienced and expected. I felt like if I eased off by as little as 5 seconds a mile I could race a 15 K or maybe even a half. But I could not find 5 seconds a mile within me to run one more mile 5 seconds faster. In theory you should be able to address that with speed work. In practice, what has happened in the past is that speed work does help me keep the gap between the half and the 5 K pace bigger, but mostly because the half is slower. I gain 10-15 seconds in a 5 K and lose a minute in the half compared to high mileage, and no speed work other than occasional tempos and races.
2 miles in 10:25 (5:11). That is encouraging. Not 10:25, but 5:11 after 5:14. Maybe the momentum would help be get up the hill at a good pace. Well, we hit the uphill. I did not feel too miserable. But I could not go any faster. Nate pulled away like there was no tomorrow. But that time I had passed Steve, but everybody else was still ahead. Matt Harmer went by, and I could not latch on him. I closed the gap on John Cole a bit. Once it flattened out I pulled up to him, he pressed harder and dropped me, I pulled up again, he pressed again and dropped me, I reeled him in, 3 miles in 16:04 (uphill mile in 5:39, unspectacular but not exceptionally horrible). I was about to pass him, and thought for a moment the deal was done and was planning a forward lean at the finish line, but then he found another gear and beat me by a second. My time on the watch was 16:36, officially 16:38. Others:
Teren 15:18, Dennis 15:44, Alexander 15:56, Nate 16:02 (his last 1.1 split was 5:38, same as Teren's), Josh 16:07, Dave 16:19, Matt 16:25, John 16:37, Steve 16:48, James 16:52.
Went back to pace Benjamin (9 years old). His back and muscles all over the body have been hurting lately (growth pains?) so I was not expecting much. He toughed it out and finished in 22:09, 2nd place in his age division (1-11) after Alexander Berry who got 21:23. Jenny goofed off today. I think she is still too little to run well without a pacer. When I found her, she was jogging along (without much effort) with a 6 year old girl at around 8:30 pace. I suppose Jenny was feeling overwhelmed by the adult crowd and decided to just run alongside a little kid. I told her to speed up, which she did, but not enough to drop her. They both started flying by the adult crowd. Jenny's 6 year old competitor was quite a speedy girl. At the end Jenny pulled ahead of her competitor, which gave her third place in her age division (1-11) and 26:19 for the time, which is quite a bit slower than what she was capable of. We'll try again in another race, this time I'll be there start to finish. Nevertheless, it is interesting to note that even with this level of effort Jenny (7 years old) would have gotten an age division award in a number of non-master adult age divisions.
On the positive side, our blogger Kim Lee who we put on the forms got into St. George. This is good not only for Kim but also for the blog. Will make it easier to convince race directors to advertise their races with us.
Passed out the FRB/St. George Running Center cards. Benjamin, Jenny, and especially Julia helped. Then ran a short cool down. Will run more tonight.
T4 Racer - 168.59 miles.
P.M. 1.1 with Julia in 11:14, then 11.5 with Daniel in 1:19:32. We kept it brisker than normal, but still within an acceptable range. The temperatures were in the 80s. The asphalt was warm and soft and I could feel it in Five Fingers. So sub-7:00 happened more naturally than it normally does when it is only 50-60 degrees and the asphalt is hard. Interestingly enough, I was not the only creature that liked warm asphalt today. We saw a short green snake warming itself on the trail and I jumped over it. Ran at 5:30 pm, had no food or drink since about 1:30 pm, but I was not feeling either hungry or thirsty, so I decided to see how well I will do in the heat off blood volume. Did OK, could not feel the heat very much.
Five Fingers - 390.19 miles.
I am just amazed at you all! Really, this blog has been a godsend for me! So much inspiration and encouragement all in one little cyberspace! Thanks so much for making this available to even us polkier new folk. (think fast- be fast- think fast- be fast :) oh yeah, and run, run, run!
Sasha, my cell phone was dead so I didn't call you. I just got back from Lake Powell and had planned on racing, but I have a terrible cold and thought it would be unwise to race. Looks like you did a great job at the race. I still don't have anything from St. George Running Center.
It was nice to see you and your running family. Alexander had fun talking with Benjamin after the race. Great effort and time - thanks for the encouragement
Thank you Sasha for running in my name! What support I feel from friends and family! To have Benjamin and Jenny running for me also made me cry! When cute little Jenny came up to me and said, "Hi Kim" and talked to me about running for me I just wanted to squeeze her! Will you and fast running mommy give her and Benjamin a little squeeze from me?

This recipe really should have been posted for Thanksgiving, but sweet potatoes are not in short supply this season, with my CSA delivering almost 20 pounds each month. So any day is a good day for this rich, moist and comforting cornbread. The sweetness from the potatoes is so subtle, not cloying at all, with a warm undertone from the pumpkin pie spice (I made my own). The buttermilk is the kicker–it adds creamy moisture and a slight tang to accent the sweet flavor of the bread, but with less calories than milk. Serve this with your holiday dinners, with a big bowl of chili or gumbo, or as a hearty late afternoon snack on a cold day with a glass of hot mulled (hard!) cider or a pint of hearty ale or stout.
Sweet Potato Corn Bread
2 cups mashed or grated cooked sweet potatoes
4 whole eggs
1½ cup buttermilk
½ cup honey or maple syrup
2 cups polenta meal
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (see recipe below or buy in spice section of supermarket)
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
3 scallions, chopped (optional)
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees and butter a 10-inch cast iron skillet.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, eggs, buttermilk and honey or maple syrup.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and pumpkin pie spice.
- Add melted butter (and scallions if you are using them) to the sweet potato mixture. Fold the cornmeal mixture into the sweet potato mixture and stir.
- Pour into prepare skillet and bake for 25-35 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick or knife inserted into the center of the pan comes out clean. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Pumpkin Pie Spice
3 tablespoons cinnamon
1 tablespoon nutmeg
2 teaspoons ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons allspice
1 teaspoon ground clove (optional)
Mix spices together in a small bowl. Store in a small jar or other airtight container

text: Gutter guards are a great investment and a huge move towards owning a home that requires less maintenance. But it's not as easy as just slapping in any old gutter guard as most gutter helmets are either cheap and don't work or very expensive and still don't work. There are literally hundreds types of gutter guards on the market today and unfortunately for the unsuspecting homeowner many of them will leave your wallet much lighter and may even make the problem worse.
