text: by Grace Knight on 19th November 2016 Little Shop of Horrors, the cult classic that brought us endlessly popular tunes such as "Suddenly Seymour" and "Somewhere that's Green" tells the story of Seymour and Audrey, two low-paid shop assistants who work in a failing florists in downtown New York. Their fortunes change when Seymour persuades his boss to put a very unusual plant he's found in the shop window. It attracts a lot of custom. Unfortunately, Seymour learns that the only food the plant will eat is human blood. Initially he gives it some of his own blood, but eventually the plant's appetite increases with its size, and things take a darker turn.In all, this is a fun piece of theatre with great songs and a giant singing plant.This is a fun romp of a musical with all the popular appeal you would expect from the writing partnership that later went on to write Disney's Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid. Its dark themes of domestic abuse, poverty traps and the limits of ethical behaviour are dealt with with such a light touch that you're never really expected to engage with them on a deep level. There are lots of songs, and they're all energetically performed by the talented, lively cast.There are a few slightly morally dicey moments. Audrey's domestic abuse story is played largely for laughs in a way that manages to not be offensive—but only just. And there's something slightly off-colour about taking a character who is a domestic abuser, writing him as essentially a pantomime villain, and then having him played by the most famous and beloved performer in the cast (Rhydian). In general though, the show manages to stay on the right side of being irreverent without being upsetting.The cast is very strong. Sasha Latoya, Vanessa Fisher and Cassie Clare light up the stage with the energy and fun they bring to their numbers, and each of them does something special with their solo moments. The two leads also give really great performances. Sam Lupton (Seymour) has a simply beautiful voice—pure and strong. His performance is sweet and convincing. Stephanie Clift is fantastic as Audrey. She has arguably the most difficult role, as she has to juggle a very upsetting story in a way that does it justice, while also remaining fundamentally a comedy character, and she pulls it off. She's charming and goofy but makes sure we're also able to feel the pathos of her story.In all, this is a fun piece of theatre with great songs and a giant singing plant. Well worth the price of a ticket. 14th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom15th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom16th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom17th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom18th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom19th Nov 20167:30pmTheatre Royal Glasgow282 Hope Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom The Blurb Seymour Krelborn, the assistant at Mushnik's Flower Shop in downtrodden Skid Row, becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers a strange and exotic plant. He names it Audrey Two in order to impress glamorous Audrey, the colleague he's secretly in love with. Audrey Two quickly starts to wilt, putting Seymour's job and dream future with Audrey at risk. Accidentally pricking his finger, Seymour discovers Audrey Two needs a little more than plant food to thrive. The plant grows into a bad-tempered, foul-mouthed carnivore whose voracious appetite becomes increasingly difficult to satisfy. How far will Seymour go for the woman of his dreams? Rhydian will play sadistic dentist Orin Scrivello. Rhydian rose to fame as a runaway success on ITV's The X Factor. Since then he has sold in excess of a million albums worldwide, released six albums and duetted and performed with some of the biggest names in the music industry. His many theatre credits include Grease, We Will Rock You, The War Of The Worlds, Jesus Christ Superstar and the 40th Anniversary Tour of The Rocky Horror Show. Rhydian has just completed his third solo UK tour and is a Classical Brit Award nominee. With music by the legendary Alan Menken, best known for his numerous Walt Disney film scores, Little Shop of Horrors is a cult film and one of the longest running off-Broadway shows of all time. Sell a Door Theatre Company have previously toured critically acclaimed productions of Avenue Q, The History Boys, American Idiot and Seussical the Musical.

If they could get "hand > waved" through NM we could abstain from a special group of "members w/o > upload rights but w/ vote rights", couldn't we? In my response, I was purely on about upload rights, but you address a good point. The whole voting rights thing. In ubuntu, Membership is gained by showing contribution to the project. This gains the person voting rights (though I've only ever seen a member vote once, and this was for members of the CC) In debian, Membership implies upload rights, which is another thing that I think that Ubuntu do well. Membership shouldn't be just for those that are DDs. I think that membership (which implies voting rights) should be available to those who provide a sustained contribution to the debian project. Whether it be through Translations, artwork, advocacy, sponsorship, package maintenace, etc etc. In my opinion, there should be a distinct divide between being a Debian Member, and a Debian Developer. I'm pretty sure that there are numerous people out there who contribute to Debian in a significant manner, without actually doing any package maintenance. Along with this divide, I think that being a Debian Developer (hereby shortened to the "defacto" DD) should imply Debian Membership. This meaning that someone can apply to become a Debian Member (DM)) without having to become a DD, but anyone who applies to be a DD should either be automatically granted DM status, or have to apply for that first. I think that for Membership, a suitable board should be setup (or multiple boards, in the case of an overwhelming amount of applicants) that, if a concensus is met between them, would be allowed to grant DM status to a person. Either that, or a prospective member would have to get a certain amount of DMs to advocate their becoming a member, which could then become an automated process. DMs would also have the opportunity to raise an objection to someone becoming a member, at which point, it would then either goto the "board " for a decision, or require the applicant to find more advocates. I don't think however, that this should be the case for becoming a DD. In the case of someone aplying for a DD, I believe that they should either have to go through NM as it stands, or have a "board" of people qualified to distinguish the applicant's ability (say for example, FD + DAM, or similar) "hand wave" the person through. I also think that the current "Debian Maintainer" should stay as it is (though possiby be renamed to something like "Debain Code Contributor" (DCC), or work in a similar manner to the DM process suggested above. -- Regards, Martin "Mez" Meredith

Even though it's still August and extremely humid this week, I was in the mood for something that tasted like fall. Enter these yummy pumpkin muffins. They are grain and sugar free. My four kids gobbled these up as a snack, and they made for a satisfying breakfast for me. I warmed it up and put some butter on it, and oh my word it was delicious! The photos don't do them justice.
Pin it for later.
Pumpkin Muffins Makes 18-20 muffins
- 4 eggs
- 15 oz. can of pumpkin, NOT pumpkin pie mix
- 3/4 - 1 c. coconut oil, melted
- 2/3 c. THM Sweet Blend OR 2/3 c. + 3 T. of Truvia (this is equivalent to 48 packets)
- 2 c. almond flour
- 2 t. baking powder
- 2 t. baking soda
- 1-1 1/4 t. cinnamon
- 1 t. salt
- 1/4 c. chopped walnuts or pecans, optional
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a muffin tin with olive oil. In a large mixing bowl beat eggs, pumpkin, oil and sweetener until it is smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the nuts if using them.
- Fill each muffin tin until they are 2/3 of the way full. Bake for 17-19 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

My grandma passed this morning. Lots of emotions and thoughts run through you when someone you love so much passes away. After trying to go through my day like normal, the big dark sunglasses just weren't cutting it because, well, I am quite a loud crier and after certain things were done with my grandma I could go be with my mom.
I remember when my grandfather passed away (this grandmother's husband). My first reaction was anger and hate. I missed him so and could not understand why we or he or I deserved it. I was so very angry.
10 years later, with a knowledge of how beautiful the gospel is, this time around, my first reaction was one of love and joy.
She gets to be with him. She missed him. Boy, were they a sassy couple, but full of love.
She gets to be with her baby that passed on at the age of two. He was a beautiful baby, reminds me of my baby girl.
They get to be together, because Families are Forever.
I don't think this, I don't hope for this, I believe this and I KNOW this.
And one day (hopefully after a long full life), I will be with them too.
Love you Grandma.

Friday - Streetstyle Day
As you already read in my last few blogs, I went to visit the i<3fashionbloggers event in the Nhow Hotel in Rotterdam last Saturday. There gathered a lot of bloggers. Some of them were blogging for years, but most of the girls were starters, like me. I was really looking for these girls, just to talk and argue about all kind of things. I want to learn from different startups and get the possibility to help each other.

Miley Cyrus in Artistique VIDEO
We know that Miley seizes every opportunity to pull her clothes off, but this time I thought it was still pretty cool! In the short artistic film "Tongue Tied" you see Miley (as she is) but in a cool and artistique way. It's pretty 'heavy' but still worth watching. Unlike her own Instagram art projects, this a project by artist Quentin Jones and we see Miley as we know; with few clothes on the body.

Mitchell's Corn Palace 'rocks' with its music theme
The "King" lives on in Mitchell, South Dakota. Elvis Presley and Willie Nelson are the headliners for the Corn Palace's murals. Their likenesses have been created with thousands of corn husks and corn cobs. The Corn Palace annually creates a new design using husks and cobs. "Rock of Ages" will actually be the attraction's theme for two years, extending its stay from 2015.
Budget concerns about the Corn Palace led to the decision to extend the murals, according to the Mitchell Republic newspaper. The Palace is actually a sports and events arena. A drop in revenue drove the decision, the newspaper reported.
Regardless of the reason, more than 500,000 visitors will have the opportunity to view the beautiful art this year. Nelson's mural is located along the main street running in front of the Corn Palace. Presley's is right around the corner.
In addition to the stars, other murals feature generic performers including country and rock musicians. John Travolta's "Saturday Night Fever" pose is featured among the murals.
The original Corn Palace was built in 1892, as a way to show off the state's corn harvest. The current building was opened in 1921.
The most prominent mural designer was a South Dakotan. Oscar Howe, a member of the Yankton Sioux tribe, designed the Corn Palace murals for 24 years, beginning with his Indian theme in 1948. He featured South Dakota with several of his murals. His final mural design in 1971 was Mother Goose Rhymes.
During our visit, the Corn Palace's arena floor was turned into a large gift shop. It was busy. The gift shop has some nice items for sale, including authentic Native American art.
The arena also has some interesting murals dotting the wall. From Native American and white hands shaking to scenes of birds flying and farm houses standing on the prairies, the murals are attractive.
Art isn't restricted to the exterior and the arena floor. The concourse's columns look like corn cobs. There is even a tractor on display for photo ops.
Quirkiness abounds in the area around the Corn Palace. A corn in its husk statue smiles as it looks at the attraction.
A tribute to Oscar Howe was designed by Native American artists. "Reconcile with Them" features a bird on the head of a person. It represents the co-existence of humans, animals and societal/physical environments. Marilyn Wounded Head – a Pine Ridge artist – created the sculpture as a tribute to Howe. South Dakotan Randy Higgins assisted with the project.
We enjoyed our visit to the Mitchell Corn Palace, which – as everyone who visits is reminded – is the world's only Corn Palace.
If you'd like additional information about the Corn Palace, please visit www.cornpalace.com.

Sliding Window Lock Replacement
A quick learner from Hainesport NJ says:
January 8, 2015
Hello, looking for this window lock. Could you identify what the part number is for me. I would like to order a few. Thanks, Bob
Tom from SWISCO responded:
January 9, 2015
Hello again, Bob! I would be happy to help. Before I can offer a replacement, though, can you confirm the distance between the installation holes, center-to-center? Thanks!
A quick learner says:
January 12, 2015
Distance between installation holes center to center is 2 inches exactly. Thanks, Bob
Dave Sr. from SWISCO responded:
January 13, 2015
Hey, Bob. We don't have anything in this style with a 2" hole center spacing. Can you double check? This looks a lot like our 90-161, which has a 2-1/16" spacing. Let me know what you think.


text: So, I've taken the Basic Rider Course from MSF. I was wondering if anyone in here has taken the Experienced/Advanced Rider Course. I'd like to be as educated as possible, but from the looks of the course here in Washington it's just like the BRC, but with your own bike. It's only 6 hours long compared to the BRC's 15-20. Plus, I don't want to wreck my own bike doing slow-ass U-turns that I'll never do in real life. What is everyone's opinion on the ERC and if you've taken it was it helpful?

Straight JackSM is an exciting blackjack side bet that wins if a player's first two cards make a Straight--but it doesn't end there. When a player hits his or her hand, the longer the straight the bigger the win!
How to Play
Players make the Straight Jack bet by placing a wager in the marked area in addition to their regular blackjack wager.
Players win if their first two cards are of consecutive rank, (i.e. a Straight). The order of the cards does not matter--a 3 followed by a 4 or a 4 followed by a 3, both are winners. Every time a player hits his or her hand, if it makes the Straight longer, the player's payout increases.

Medical alarm can promote safe, independent living
Lisa Wurth
October 25, 2010
New York City is considering massive cuts to in-home workers in order to combat a budget deficit, and the austerity measures may slash the services by 40 percent, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The reduction would heavily affect employees who assist seniors with day-to-day tasks, such as those who aid seniors in organizing food delivery and finances, and provide companionship to older adults who would otherwise feel isolated.
Other senior services have already been slashed due to concerns about the city's budget. The news source reports that 29 senior centers, a healthy aging initiative and elder-abuse prevention program have all been closed.
"We know these are difficult financial times," Jacqueline Huneidi, director of case management for Services Now for Adult Persons, told the news provider. "But there has to be a better way where we keep these homebound seniors safe in their homes."
Those who are looking for a safe way to age at home may want to invest in a medical alarm system for their home. This device can allow older adults to send a personal emergency response message to doctors in the case of an emergency.

SICK has introduced the new M4000 family of multiple light beam safety devices, which offer category 4 safety in compliance with IEC 61496 and SIL 3 according to IEC 61508.
The Advanced, Standard and Area versions are modular, expandable with supplementary options and offer a variety of beam numbers, separations and ranges.
The M4000 recently won the IF Design Award and was nominated for the German Design Prize.
The M4000 series replaces the MSL multibeam photoelectric safety switch. Depending on the device version, there are numerous new functions and status indicators available, allowing rapid commissioning and ensuring a high level of availability.
Economical safety solutions are guaranteed because users can select exactly the right mix of M4000 functions for each application.
The basic function of all M4000 devices is to protect access. The M4000 Advanced version features an RS-232 configuration interface on the device, beam coding, restart interlock, external device monitoring and Safety Data Link (SDL) interface for safe network or fieldbus integration.
Together with the UE403 muting switching device the two- to four-beam system provides innovative, decentralised muting solutions for access protection during automated material transport.
The UE403 can be mounted directly on the non-distorting profile of the M4000 Advanced and the LED muting indicator lamp is already integrated in the receiver housing.
These features permit decentralised muting solutions with an enclosure rating of IP 65 and with wiring costs reduced to a minimum compared to conventional central muting solutions in IP 20 control cabinet versions.
The potential muting solutions of the devices are advanced. Up to four muting sensors (such as optical, inductive, capacitive sensors or mechanical switches) can be connected.
Configurable inputs for Reset and Override control devices are available, as is a configurable output for the external muting indicator.
Both the multiple light beam safety device and the UE403 switching unit offer configuration and diagnostic opportunities via their RS232 interfaces. This allows numerous functions and settings to be implemented application-specifically and individually.
The system can operate with conventional muting, with partial blanking of defined beams, or a mixture of the two depending, for example, on a material classification.
A variety of time and process monitoring definitions can be configured to check whether essential muting conditions are maintained - reliably detecting tampering or misalignment.
The integrated Override function resets the muting function to the last valid muting status (such as after a muting sequence error) and thus permits free passage through the muting station.
Access protection from one or more sides is achieved with the M4000 Standard. The basic function of the M4000 Standard is the protection of access. The system is available in two- to four-beam variants. Differing beam separations can also be selected, as well as a variety of ranges of up to 70m.
The M4000 Standard offers features that are not always really "standard". Configuration buttons on the device, an integrated laser alignment aid for each individual beam, LED indicators on the receiver housing, separate connection on the receiver for direct wiring of the reset button and an integrated AS-i Safety-at-Work interface are features that make all the difference to installation and operation.
Both the M4000 Standard and the M4000 Advanced are available as active/passive variants, whereby only one side requires electrical connection. This significantly reduces wiring costs and makes A/P systems the optimum solution for ranges of up to 7.5m.
The M4000 family is rounded off by the Area version. Hazardous areas of up to 70m can be monitored with two different resolutions (60mm or 80mm) and hazardous points-of operation is effectively safeguarded against stepping behind the safety device.
An RS-232 interface for configuration and diagnosis and an SDL interface for connection to safe networks are also part of the performance specification.

In accordance with regulations of the Commissioner of Education, the district has developed an Emergency Management Plan to safeguard the safety and health of students and staff, as well as district property, in the event of a true emergency.
Each year, the school will stage a "test" or drill of the Emergency Plan, including practice in sheltering students and staff, or an early dismissal at a time not more than 15 minutes earlier than the normal dismissal time. Parents/guardians will be informed of any such "test" at least one week prior to the drill.
The Superintendent of Schools may close the schools or dismiss students/staff early when hazardous weather or other emergencies threaten health or safety.
General Information: On those days when weather or some other condition requires a change in the regular school day, such information will be broadcast over:
- WFAS White Plains
- WFAS White Plains FM 103.9
- WHUD Peekskill FM 100.7
- WOR New York AM 770
- WGCH Greenwich AM 1490
- WQXR New York FM 96.7
- TV Channels 77, 12 and 5
- District Website www.blindbrook.org
- Electronic Phone/e-mail messaging service
When weather conditions force a change, the Superintendent of Schools will make the final decision.
School Closing: Announcements will be made over the radio and cable TV as soon as the decision has been made. Shortly thereafter a message will be posted on the District's website.
Delayed Opening: Announcements will follow as soon as a decision has been made and will include the length of the delay. The delay will pertain to all bus runs scheduled throughout the school district, for both public and private school students. For instance, a two-hour delay will mean that all buses will run two hours late.
When inclement weather forces a change in the normal schedule, decisions concerning the operation of schools may go through two stages; two-hour delay and closing. It is essential to listen to the radio, watch Channel 12 on cable or visit the District's website for accurate information on bad weather days. When delays are announced, parents should continue to listen to determine whether further adjustments are made. On a given day it may be necessary to change to an additional delay or closing.
As we cannot provide proper supervision for your children in the schools on delayed opening days, please do not drop your children off at school before the designated delayed opening time. Dismissals on days of delayed opening will be at the regular time, unless otherwise announced.
Early Dismissal: Announcement of such dismissal will be made as early as possible via the media and by existing telephone chains. The early dismissal sequence will begin with all BMPRSS students in grades K-5 being dismissed along with BBMS/HS student walkers and drivers. BBMS/HS students in grades 6-12 who are bus riders will be dismissed approximately 30 minutes after the first sequence. To avoid any confusion about early dismissal times the District will adhere to this two-sequence system.
Please remember the importance of having a back-up designee to whom children can go when you are not home and an early dismissal takes place. Students who are not dropped off by the bus because no one is home to receive them will be returned to their respective school. Parents will then be contacted to affect their pick up from there.
All non-public schools will be requested to dismiss their Blind Brook students at the announced early dismissal time if bus runs are timed to coincide with the public school runs. If this request is not or cannot be met, the Blind Brook-Rye UFSD cannot be responsible for the transportation of such nonpublic school students.
It is expected that all non-public and/or other out-of-district school will have an effective notification system in place regarding the delays, early dismissals or school closings.

Adirondack is the nickname for Mars Exploration Rover Spirit's first target rock. Scientists chose Adirondack to be Spirit's first target rock after considering another, called Sashimi, that would have been a shorter, straight-ahead drive. Spirit traversed the sandy martian terrain at Gusev Crater to arrive in front of this football-sized rock on January 18, 2004, just three days after it successfully rolled off the lander.

Women's Empowerment in Africa: Access to Land, Credit, and MarketsJul 2, 2010
Introductory remarks by Helen Clark, UNDP Administrator, at the Ministerial Breakfast on Economic Opportunities for the Empowerment of Women in Africa and the Least Developed Countries: Access to Land, Credit, and Markets
United Nations, New York

Check Against Delivery
United Nations, New York

Check Against Delivery
Thank you for inviting me to take part in this ministerial discussion on issues related to women's economic empowerment in Africa and the Least Developed Countries.
Women's economic empowerment, accompanied by women's political empowerment and access to equal legal rights and status, is a critical driver of progress on the MDGs and other internationally agreed development goals.
In the lead up to the MDG +Ten Summit in September, UNDP has a clear message - the Goals can be met.
There is a range of tried and tested policies which ensure MDG progress. If they are backed by strong global partnerships, the world can achieve the MDGs. In that range of policies are many which support women's economic empowerment.
Just over two weeks ago, UNDP released an International Assessment of what it will take to achieve the MDGs by 2015. That assessment also affirms how important it will be to invest in opportunities for women and girls, and to advance their economic, legal, and political empowerment.
The focus of our discussion today is on women's economic empowerment through access to credit, land, and markets.
Land is the most important asset for many households in developing countries, and that is particularly so for poor households. Land ownership confers direct economic benefits as a source of production and income, and as collateral for financial and credit services – and this in return has multiplier effects across all the MDGs.
The right of women to own property, including land, is recognized under international human rights law. Yet, in many countries, women's property rights are limited by social norms and customs, and at times by legislation. As a result, women do not enjoy equal opportunity and status in their families and communities.
Therefore, ensuring that women do enjoy full legal rights to own property and to inherit is critical for economic empowerment.
UNDP works with programme countries to strengthen women's legal rights, with a view to making them consistent with international norms and standards. In Liberia, Mozambique, and Uganda, for example, UNDP is supporting community land titling initiatives with special measures to protect the land claims of vulnerable populations and women.
Where women cannot inherit land, they and their children may be evicted upon the death of their husbands and fathers. The HIV/Aids epidemic has contributed to an increase in such evictions, and further dis-empowers women.
Access to credit - and to financial services more generally – needs to accompany the right to own and to inherit property in order for women to have economic opportunity.
In Africa, women comprise a majority of those working in agriculture, but it is estimated that they receive under ten per cent of all the credit going to small farmers - and only one per cent of the total credit for the agricultural sector.
Issues of land ownership and access to credit for women are issues of equality and opportunity. Reforms in these areas help women move out of poverty and strengthen their position generally in their homes, communities, and countries.
It is important overall to unleash the tremendous potential women have as entrepreneurs, and to address the obstacles they face to establishing their businesses. Microcredit has a role to play - and women are known as very reliable borrowers who will repay their loans.
Improving women's ability to be in the formal labour market is also critical to their economic empowerment. Apart from the real benefits of earning income, decent work offers the prospect of dignity and self respect. It enables people to realize their potential and live fulfilling lives, reducing their susceptibility to poverty, hunger, and disease.
Societies which narrow the gender gap in employment will also boost their economic development and their rate of poverty reduction.
Employment guarantee programmes can be geared to supporting women's entry into the formal labour market, and are indentified in UNDP's International Assessment as important for MDG progress. The world's largest job creation scheme in India benefits 46 million households, and a mininum of thirty per cent of those employed must be women. The results have far exceeded that quota – around 51 per cent of those accessing the 100 days work a year are women.
A significant constraint on women being in paid work is the disproportionate burden of unpaid care work they carry. UNDP is working with partners to have this addressed in national policy making. Until that happens, women will continue to have limited choices and opportunities in the labour market.
In summary, efforts to support women's economic empowerment in Africa, and across the LDCs, must help overcome the legal and other barriers which women face. Those barriers include lack of access to credit, land, and markets, and the many other forms of exclusion and discrimination which women often experience in their daily lives. Ultimately, these solutions need to be reflected in gender-responsive national development strategies, policies, and budgets.
Today's meeting is a good opportunity for sharing experiences of what has worked, and what hasn't, in overcoming these obstacles, and I look forward to hearing about the national experiences of all those present.

Rock sagas have arrived thick and fast – often, very thick – in the past three or four years. None, however, has extended to two volumes since Peter Guralnick's exhaustive biography of Elvis Presley. While it may be fitting that Metallica – the undisputed titans of a genre dedicated to excess – should be the first to break that record in 15 years, some might feel that such detailed scrutiny is unwarranted.
Metallica have sold more than 100million albums worldwide since 1981. But are the band once hailed as the "Led Zeppelin of their generation" – or, for that matter, any band of their generation – really a match for vintage groups in the rock yarn stakes?
Though not officially sanctioned, Birth † School † Metallica † Death was written by two former editors of Britain's talismanic heavy-metal weekly, Kerrang! They have used their many interviews with the band over the years to create a chronicle of rare authority with exclusive access. Any suspicion that the authors may have tiptoed around the subject for fear of offending their rock-star mates is dispelled at the outset. They get stuck into the conflicting personalities at the band's core.
James Hetfield, Metallica's snarling frontman, is introduced as a brooding adolescent, scarred both by acne and by his absent father – an abusive truck driver and fervent Christian Scientist, who settled his dependants in a small town south of Los Angeles. After the divorce, Hetfield's mother contracted cancer, but on religious grounds "refused to countenance diagnosis or treatment". She died, just shy of 50, when Hetfield was 16 years old. The troubled youngster purged his anger by playing fearsome riffs in a succession of local bands, whose daft song titles (Hades Ladies) provided welcome light relief.
When drummer Lars Ulrich found Hetfield via a newspaper ad there were no musical fireworks. Ulrich's technical ability was dwarfed by Hetfield's. They were very different people: the drummer's father was Torben Ulrich, Denmark's tennis number one. As such, the much-travelled Ulrich had wider horizons, and an innate belief that he would succeed. He is the permanently self-promoting yin to Hetfield's introverted yang.
Fuelled by this combustible combination, Metallica sold themselves locally as an antidote to the prevailing "hair metal" bands such as Mötley Crüe.
Their unsteady early progress picks up after they relocate to San Francisco. A further destabilising influence, Dave Mustaine, their arrogant lead guitarist, is ousted after almost killing them by drink-driving on the way to record their debut album in New York. With characteristic coldbloodedness, they pack Mustaine off on a Greyhound bus (he later formed Megadeth), and fly in his replacement Kirk Hammett the same week. They even replace Mustaine's lyrics to one song. In their haste they manage to misname one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
Spinal Tap moments are never knowingly underplayed in these pages. Though substantially better written than most metal music biographies, the language is as overstated as the music. The reader cannot help but feel a fan's excitement, however, as Metallica come to define the intense new sound of "thrash-metal", via a sequence of bone-crushing albums such as 1986's game-changing Master of Puppets.
Metallica - Master Of Puppets on MUZU.TV.
As in the Crüe's legendary exposé, The Dirt, there are tales of depravity along the way: after an early arena show in Wisconsin, the band are ushered into a shower room staffed by 10 naked models. Later on, Ulrich habitually refuses to "leave the venue until he has received oral sex from a stranger in the audience".
Metallica's ascent is almost halted when their tour bus skids off the road in Sweden, killing bassist Cliff Burton. A rumour that Hetfield and Burton had been planning to sack Ulrich for his questionable drumming and non-stop "yap-yap-yapping" is declared probably true. Hetfield and Ulrich reconcile in grief and within a month of the accident, they've hired a new bassist.
The new recruit is made to feel uncomfortable from the start, as Metallica's leading pair effectively inaugurate a two-tier membership. Thus far, they traded as outsiders, refusing to release singles, or make videos for MTV. By 1990, Ulrich notes with Faustian relish, their brief is "to cram Metallica down everybody's throat all over the f------ world".
To that end, when Hammett hands over a tape containing a momentous riff, Hetfield duly grafts on his own brand of musical menace, and Ulrich structures the whole thing into their five-minute-long breakthrough, Enter Sandman. We leave the story on the cusp of the release of The Black Album, which went on to sell 30million copies.
With a self-assurance befitting of Ulrich himself, the following page of the book announces that its sequel, Birth † School † Metallica † Death: Volume 2, will be published in autumn 2014. The superstar years will doubtless make even more entertaining reading.

Watch Sony PlayStation Meeting 2013 Live Stream
Peter Donnell / 5 years ago
The live stream is about to begin and Sony are about to make what could be the either the biggest moment in modern gaming history or the biggest PR disaster in decades, I am of course betting that this is going to be something truly awesome and the world is watching for what we think will be the first official unveiling of the Sony PlayStation 4, the worlds first true next-gen console in the last 7 years!
We have the live stream for your viewing pleasure below
What can you expect from the event?
Well the first thing that we know, or should that be "don't know" is how long this event will be, so get a drink, find some snacks and get your self comfortable as this could be anything from 30mins to 2 hours long, no one knows! One thing I am certain of is that Sony wouldn't go through all this trouble for a 20min performance. 1200 members of the gaming press and Sony investors are in New York and Sony isn't about to waste their time and effort for attending.
When Sony launched the Vita at a similar event we were treated to gameplay of the stunning Uncharted demo and its likely that we will see something similar today.
Brace yourself for a lot of Sony blowing their own trumpet, talking at great length about their brand history, success stories and generally showing off, but this is there moment, so I'll allow it.
Game trailers, announcements, keynote speeches and presentations from first party developers and more are more than likely, we may even get our first glimpse of the new controller.
What not to expect?
It's highly unlikely that we will see that actual PS4 hardware unit today, Sony are not about to play all their cards at once and there are many more major gaming events between now an the possible launch window of November – March for them to let people get hands on, see the hardware etc.
It's not likely that they will speak about price, official launch date, too many game or much else either as again, they will want to keep the hype going to with slow released details over the next few months.
What now?
Time to kick back and relax, the action is about to begin! If your lucky, we might even get a new edition of the PlayStation Ducks demo that was used for the PS2 and PS3 launches.

This book is an adaptation of the authors classic 5th edition Mathematical Methods for Physicists (published in 2001). The authors have written this book in response to a need for a version of their original work that more appropriately meets the needs of today s students while still preparing them for the level of mathematics expected in advanced courses in physics and engineering.
It is approximately 200 pages shorter than the authors other book, but uses a larger page size and a two-color format to visually present the material in a more attractive manner. Another new feature is the addition of brief biographies of famous mathematicians. There are also dozens of more drawings as well as new chapter introductions and summaries.
One of the aims of the Arfken and Weber books has always been an emphasis on problem-solving skills, and this hallmark has been even further developed by the use of more worked out examples. Most of the examples are real problems from various fields of physics A key objective is to train the student to formulate physical phenomena in mathematical language, starting from intuitive and qualitative ideas. Concepts are introduced, mathematical solutions are introduced, many examples are presented, and finally problem sets at the end of sections offer a variety of difficulty.
Some more advanced topics have been deleted, but new material on partial differential equations, and a new chapter on probability have been added. Finally, the last chapter on nonlinear methods and chaos has been substantially augmented.
In summary, this book is the most modern collection of mathematical principles for solving physics problems now available. Students will find it a fine text and practicing scientists will find it an invaluable reference.
In summary this book is
While the book will be ideal for university courses, practicing scientists will find it an ideal reference.

Reading and math scores rise in Georgia
Reading and math scores are up in Georgia and are near U.S. averages, 2013 data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress show, but there's still room for improvement in student understanding of subject material.
NAEP, frequently referred to as the "nation's report card," tests what it calls a representative sample of 4th- and 8th-graders across the country every other year. The reading and math scores of Georgia's 4th- and 8th-graders were all higher in 2013 than they were in 2011.
Far more Georgia students take the SAT than the 18,000 who participated in NAEP testing earlier this year. But NAEP is viewed by many as a credible national measure of academic progress. NAEP test-takers are randomly selected and — unlike with the SAT — parents don't pay for expensive prep courses or multiple tests to improve the scores of their children.
Georgia's 4th-graders got a 2013 math score of 240 on a 0 to 500 scale. The national average score was 241. Georgia's 4th-grade reading score was 222, one point better than the U.S. score of 221.
The scores of Georgia's 8th-graders in reading and math were below national averages, but not by much. Eighth-graders in Georgia got a math score of 279 on a scale of 0 to 500, five points below the U.S. score of 284. And the 8th-grade reading score was 265, one point below the U.S. score of 266.
The NAEP scores run counter to the notion that Georgia's public schools are abysmal and produce students who test near the bottom of national averages.

Nicky Henderson endured another frustrating morning as he again had to abandon plans to work Simonsig and Grandouet at Newbury due to a sharp frost.
Instead, they headed back to Lambourn where the trainer was thrilled by what he saw from Simonsig who is unbeaten in both his starts over fences.
The trainer said: "Simonsig is always a flashy worker here; he's breathtaking. By the look of things, Grandouet probably needed this work more than the others. I'll probably do a little bit more with him and a few others here on Friday. It's too late by then to be having away-days to a racecourse."
The bonny grey is a best-priced 4-6 chance for the Arkle while Champion Hurdle hope Grandouet is a solid 6-1 shot.
David Pipe has still not decided whether to run his unbeaten novice Dynaste in the RSA Chase or the Jewson.
He has been ante-post favourite for the three-mile RSA for most of the season and proved his stamina with a devastating display in the Feltham at Kempton.
He has been absent since and there have been rumours that Pipe is leaning towards the three-furlong shorter Jewson.
However, the trainer tweeted: "Despite speculation to the contrary, there has still been no decision made about Dynaste's target @CheltenhamRaces."
? Frankel proved he really is the daddy when he had his first mare scanned in foal at Juddmonte Farms' Stud in Newmarket.
The mare in question is the former David Wachman-trained Chrysanthemum, a dual Group Three winner and third in the Group One Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh in 2011.
? The two best bets today are at Southwell where smart mare and course winner GOLDMADCHEN (3.10) will take all the beating in the hands of Joe Fanning.
CALEDONIA PRINCE (4.40) is another who loves it round here and can win again for good claimer Philip Prince.

France international Antoine Griezmann has reiterated his desire to remain at Atletico Madrid.
The 25-year-old is said to be Manchester United's number one summer transfer target, and it is believed that the Red Devils are prepared to smash the £80m-mark to bring the attacker to Old Trafford.
Griezmann, however, has insisted that he is "happy" in the Spanish capital and will only depart the Vicente Calderon if Atletico decide to sanction a sale.
"As I have said so many times in the past, I have a contract with Atletico, I am happy here and so is my family. And besides, to leave, first the club has to want to sell me, right?" Griezmann told beIN Sports.
"I try to be happy out on the pitch and give my best for the fans. Everything's going well. Here we have sun all the year round and that is also a big help."
The former Real Sociedad forward has scored 21 times in 39 appearances for Atletico during the 2016-17 campaign.

Low fodmap recipes | Chocolate peanut butter and banana loaf
Guest Blog: Carly Trigg from MyWellBeingJournal
This is one of a number of low fodmap recipes that I use all the time!! It's a breeze to whip up in the kitchen, and helps you to stick to a low fodmap diet and still indulge in a sweet treat from time to time. It does need a little while to bake; the bonus – you hardly need to clean up anything afterwards!! Good luck waiting for it to cool down though 😉
150g oats, 140g oat flour, 80g raw cocoa powder, 3 tsp, baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. ground ginger, 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract, 2 handfuls of dark chocolate chip, 3 ripe bananas, 2 tbsp. peanut butter (100% nut butter), 2 eggs, 100g sweetener e.g. stevia, 100ml almond milk
- preheat an oven to 180
- In a large bowl, mix the oats, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, ginger, and chocolate chips
- In a separate bowl, mash together the bananas, vanilla, and the peanut butter (which you'll probably need to melt slightly in advance, to ensure it mixes well). When these are mixed, add in the eggs that you've just whisked
- Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, and then add the sweetener and almond milk. The mixture should be easy enough to stir, but thick enough to resemble a pudding
- Give a loaf tin a rub with a little oil/butter, and add the mixture to it. Sprinkle any remaining chocolate chips over the top
- Bake for 60 – 70 minutes
- Leave to cool 'completely' once baked. Slice only when cool – it may break otherwise!
- If you're not a huge chocolate fan, take out the chocolate chips and cocoa powder, and you've got a hearty banana loaf instead
Ever since Carly was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in 2012, she has been blogging relentlessly about all things low fodmap. [If you're not sure what the low fodmap diet is, read these articles HERE and HERE. In short, foods low in fodmaps are most suitable for individuals with IBS. The low fodmap diet produces far less IBS related symptoms e.g. bloating, constipation, gas etc.]
Low fodmap recipes
Carly has produced a number of low fodmap diet recipes, which all help you to better stick to the low fodmap diet. She also has some great information over at her site too, so you can familiarise yourself with fodmaps and constructing a low fodmap diet.

Dennis Sorensen received a 'LifeHand 2' to give him the chance to feel again. Ten years ago he was setting off fireworks on New Year's Eve in Denmark when the terrible accident happened.
Doctors had no choice but to amputate what was left of his hand. Dennis has been using a prosthetic hand since. At the moment, Dennis has no feelings in his hand, but the hope is strong for the LifeHand 2 to provide him the chance to feel again.
Silvestro Micera is the director of the Translational Neural Engineering Laboratory at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne in Switzerland, he says the project aims "to give back as much as possible natural sensory information." Sensors have been added to each finger and tiny electrodes in the arm connect to the sensors to nerves. There is still a lot of time before we will know for sure, but so far so good for Dennis.

Federated States of Micronesia
Micronesia consists of 607 islands containing both mountains and low-lying coral atolls in the Pacific. It lies 1,800 miles east of the Philippines. This 270-square-mile nation holds a population of roughly 107,000. "The threat is to our existence, survival, not only as a people — as a culture. ... We now have just flat beaches — the wash comes in and hits the roots of coconut trees," Masao Nakayama, permanent representative of the Federated States of Micronesia to the United Nations, said in 2009. Experts say sea levels will rise more than 3 feet in the next 90 years, and Nakayama contends that "even a small rise of 1 meter" will be devastating to the nation.

Most of us plan our diets during the weekdays but we wish to keep the weekends as cheat days. That is in fact a good idea because you will get some time to binge eat your favourite foods and again get back to your healthy diet during the weekdays.
Also Read: Health Benefits Of A Dosa
But what if its not helping you? Cheat days don't work for food addicts as they again discontinue their diets once they taste their favourite stuff.
So, what to eat on weekends? Well, it totally depends upon you. If you have the discipline to handle cheat days gracefully, eat whatever you wish to on a Sunday and again get back to normal dieting on Monday.
Also Read: Healthy Things To Do Before Breakfast
But if controlling yourself is tough then here are some tips to manage the situation. Dieting is first about self-control and then about food choices. Also, remember that helathy foods help your mind stay disciplined.
Drink Hot Water
After waking up, start your day with a glass of warm water. Add a few drops of lemon to your water to boost your digestive system.
Don't eat Outside
Be determined to eat at home instead of going to a restaurant. During weekends, we generally prefer to eat out. But cooking at home can offer healthier meals and you will also be burning some calories while you sweat out in the kitchen.
Keep White Stuff Away
White rice, white bread and refined flours are the problem. Keep them away and embrace brown bread and whole grains, even during the weekend.
Drink Water Before Meals
Drink a glass of water 30 minutes before a major meal. This will help you eat less. Also, if you are going out to attend a dinner party, drink lots of water and go; you may eat less.
Eat More Salads; Not Biriyani
Even if you prepare Biriyani or any other food, try to eat more of salads and less of your Biriyani. The Biriyani will satisfy your cravings and the salad will anyway provide nutrients and make you eat less of Biriyani.
Say No To Sweets, Sugar And Coffee
At least on a Sunday stay away form coffee as you don't need to work. Also, keep sweets and sugary drinks at a distance.
No Ketchup On Weekends
Ketchup, dressings, toppings and other processed foods are a 'no' at least on weekends as you have time to cook and time to care for your health.

I had approached Udyan Care for adoption of a Kid. But was told that they do not give kids for adoption but we can help the kids by funding for their education and food. They are providing a very healthy environment for the ophaned kids who are in different age groups.Our experience in Udyan Care was very enriching the staff was very caring towards the children which satisfied us and many other like us who thought that the organisation was working hard to make the lives of these children very fulfilling.
I have been associated with Udayan Care UC since its inception. In last 15 years the way UC has evolved is truely amazing!There was a time when UC had choose between more no. of children to be taken care of , or, have less children but provide them good education and better standard of life, it chose the latter. Today UC can cerainly take credit of making the beneficiaries better and productive citizens of the country.
i got to know Udayan Care through a friend of mine. what struck me most about Udayan Care was the passion and commitment of its, relatively small staff, who were able to move mountains for the women and children who found a home with them. personally, love, guidance and time the staff and the volunteers shower on the children was an eye-opener. at udayan care it isn't about a hand out but a hand up from the earliest stages...these children are taught the righ value systems and are given the resources that will make them independent, self reliant and contributing members of society. i was glad that my daughter had the opportunity to volunteer at and spend time in udayan care meeting and interacting with the kids. it's nonprofit organization with a big heart!
Having worked for almost 10 years in developmental sector, I sincerely hope that Udyan Care has actually set the ethics of developmental work by adopting disadvantaged children and doing some concrete work. The most satisfying aspect is the high quality of care which a child gets in these adoption homes. ( I have visited one of the homes) My only concern is that as the number of disadvantaged children are increasing day by day and quality adoption homes are very few, it has to be seen that in the coming days what strategy Udyan Care adopts to reach the vast population of disadvantaged children and bring smile on their faces.
Udayan Care - is an organisation with a true difference. It doesnot run orphanages but homes for disadvantaged children. There is no doubt that any person can take the place or let alone claim to take the place/ duties/ love of a parent, but in my opinion UC is very near to it. The amount of love, personal attention, care..... is given to all the children by each and every member of this family is amazing. I have seen UC grown over so many years to its present level, which has been possible because of the continuous support and confidence given by our society. It brings joy to my heart seeing all these kids shape up so well, you got to see them to believe it. The amount of confidence that is bestowed in each child is amazing, the kind of skills they are able to show on stage, i am myself get jittery.
I have been a beneficiary of the Udayan Sahlini Fellowship (USF). I was inducted in the third batch of the USF when I was in higher secondary( class 11th CBSE Delhi) since then Udayan Care family has been a sourse of constant support and motivation for me. This year only i have graduated from the program after successfully completing my five year with them and graduating from MIRANDA HOUSE university of Delhi. Now i have joined at India's one of the premier research institute for my higher studies.the five years that i have spent with udayan care has been great in all dimensions. its all their support and motivation. Udayan shalini fellowship changed my life completely. from a government school girl to being a part of India's most prestigious research institution. its all coz of udayan shalini fellowship. i couldn't have moved a step forward without their help. the constant motivation in form of regular three monthly workshops boosted up my self confidence and gave me the vision to dream high and work hard in order to achieve my goals. towards the last two years of my stay with them they appointed me as mentor didi. it helped me to look towards world in a different way by mentoring school girls younger to me. our programme coordinator Mr Sajan Mathew and Mr Faheem Khan has always been a good listeners and a ray of hope and great counsellors in our blue moments. being fellows we were encouraged to be involved in social work, which was a necessary part of the programme. this helped us to understand our social responsibilities and work for a better tomorrow with greater hope. social campaigns were really fun that increased our knowledge about certain social problems and issues and gave us a better insight into the lives of those less privileged then us. in all i have learnt a lot being with them and evolved as a better and more confident human being in all spheres of life.I am really thankful to Mr Vikram Dutt, Mr Sajan and Udayan Shalini fellowships for the wonderful opportunity that they brought in for me through this beautiful programme. I am blessed to have been a beneficiary of this programme as this has shaped many of my thoughts and shaped my future. I am always thankful to them for being a guide and a friend.
It is a treat to meet members,volunteers and specially mentor mothers of UC.They are such a committed bunch who are ready to compromise even their mental peace to raise the girls of Udayan Ghars.
Previous Stories
This is a unique organisation which has become very strong because of their volunteers and members. The transparency in Udayan Care is TOTAL. UC is becoming instrumental in making its beneficiaries productive and positive citizens of our country.

Article Title
The k-forcing number of a graph is a generalization of the zero forcing number. In this note, we give a greedy algorithm to approximate the k-forcing number of a graph. Using this dynamic approach, we give corollaries which improve upon two theorems from a recent paper of Amos, Caro, Davila and Pepper [2], while also answering an open problem posed by Meyer [9].

ACC at COR
On November 5th and 6th, ACC will be represented at the biannual Catholic Organizations for Renewal (COR) meeting that precedes the CTA conference in Memphis, Tennessee. Janet Hauter and Sheila Peiffer will be participating in two days of discussion and planning, mostly focused on forming a collaborative action approach to the Synod on the Family.
.…is there some awareness, openness, influence of the Spirit that might be helping us, in total continuity with our past practice, to find a new direction today?"
— Cardinal Donald Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington

9007 Spring View Loop
Estero, FL 33928
Greetings to all! I returned from Rome both exhilarated and exhausted. The trip was one of the marker moments in my life. Oh, it's not what you might automatically deduce: It's not because I was where the action was nor being in a unique immersion experience nor the influential players we met. It was something entirely different. It was akin to watching a beloved Church function like a little helpless bird peck away in a desperate act to break out of its shell.
With hope in the Spirit,
Janet Hauter, National Chair, ACC
An on
"This is the time at which we willingly return home to find ourselves at the same table, surrounded by affection, the good we have done and received, the encounters that have warmed the heart or helped it grow, the good wine that offers us a glimpse in our days of the feast without end. It is also the most difficult time for those who find themselves face to face with their own solitude, in the bitter twilight of shattered dreams and unfulfilled plans: how many people pass their days in the blind alley of resignation, neglect, even rancor; in how many homes is there a lack of the good wine of joy and thus of the flavor, the very knowledge, of life." (Prayer vigil for Synod on Family, 10/5/2014)
I had the great and good fortune to be present at this Prayer Vigil held in the Piazza San Pietro, Vatican Square….only it is round….when these sentences were spoken. It was evening, with its soft light, and gentle breeze, an almost perfect backdrop to his opening sentence. The above quote, to me, summarizes what Pope Francis is trying to do for the church. Not only our homes but also our faith communities, need to reflect this statement. Many of us do have homes that are as the first sentence describes. I know I was lucky to grow up in one, even when there were times, as Pope Francis has said, that the plates flew. Many homes are not and that is why the pope called the Extraordinary Synod of Bishops that just finished on October 18. I think the action we need to take from this quote is to really work very hard at making sure our own homes achieve this kind of atmosphere. Nobody is saying they need to be perfect and nobody is saying it will be easy, especially Pope Francis.
Even if the home does not include the Norman Rockwell image of family, with mom, dad, kids and apple pie that is OK. We all need home. We need to make home for ourselves and all those around us and that extends to our faith communities. Ask yourself, does my home and my faith community reflect the first sentence or does it more reflect the second sentence? Ask yourself if you contribute "the good wine of joy and thus of the flavor, the very knowledge of life"? Once you have the answer, then get to work either making sure it is present or making sure if it is, that nobody takes it away, in either your home or your faith community. Pope Francis has worked hard with the recent Extraordinary Synod of Bishops to move them towards building a renewed vision of church, one that really reflects the first sentence of the quote. Next year will be the completion of the process. We are the ones who will bring that vision into our parishes and faith communities, not bishops and not priests. Our own homes will benefit if that vision is realized.

Silver Spring, MD (PressExposure) August 26, 2014 -- Do you ever feel that distractions get in your way? Are you being constantly interrupt or attending to tasks that are unrelated to your ultimate goal? SIMpalm, a leading Mobile App Development Company in USA, helped its client launch a productivity app to manage distractions and help users focus - the This 'r Nothing app.
This 'r Nothing is a simple and effective productivity app based on scientific principles of self-control. It helps users shield their goals from distractions, delay gratification, avoid the cost of mental switching, monitor where and how they are using time and energy, and allows for the chunking of activities into small palatable pieces.
More information about This 'r Nothing can be found at http://www.thisrnothing.com, including instructions on how to use it.
This 'r Nothing is a very easy to use app and it can be used to accomplish goals in at work, at school, or at home. "I decided to create this app after repeated reports from my students that the This 'r Nothing method was by far the most effective self-control technique in eliminating distraction that they learned on my workshops," said Dr. Gui Albieri, the creator of the app. "This method provides real benefits. It has a special way of focusing the mind."
The This 'r Nothing technique is an easy three step process. 1) user writes down what he or she will work on during a This 'r Nothing cycle. (e.g., write a letter, study for Organic Chemistry, finalize a presentation, clean room); 2) user sets the alarm for the period of time dedicated to the task; 3) during the allocated time, user will do this (i.e., the task), or nothing (we mean absolutely nothing, no texting, trips to the restroom, web browsing, social media, trips to the refrigerator... nothing!).
For each This 'r Nothing cycle that the user successfully completes, the user will receive a marshmallow. If user interrupts a cycle, he or she will receive a burnt marshmallow.
Ideas on creative ways to use the This 'r Nothing app to increase personal productivity can be found here: http://www.thisrnothing.com/#!ideas/c1382
User feedback: "I just earned my first marshmallow!! Sixty minutes without blinking! I was tempted to grab a snack; read the incoming mail; check what my daughter was watching on tv; check whose birthday was today; but I successfully stayed on task. Next time I will focus for one hour and 15 minutes!"
Why Marshmallows?
The Stanford Marshmallow study is a seminal study in the science of self-control and delayed gratification conducted by Mischel in the 60s and 70s. In Mischel's experiment, children could choose from a small immediate reward, one cookie (which in subsequent studies was substituted by a marshmallow) or, if they waited for fifteen minutes, they could get a larger reward (two marshmallows). Follow up studies showed that students who chose the larger reward later, that is, who were able to delay gratification, were, in general, more successful in life.
This study initiated a number of subsequent studies in the areas of delayed gratification and self-control.
