What makes some startups thrive while others fail? The Startup Genome Project went looking for the answer, studying more than 3,200 startups over an extended period to figure out what behaviors lead to success or failure. In The Startup Genome Report, they found that there is one big reason most new businesses fail. They try to grow too big, too fast.
Technically, it's called "premature scaling." How can it kill your business? Well…
- You might waste lots of money on marketing, without taking the time to find out if your target customers really want what you're selling, or how you might modify it to make them want it even more.
- You might add features that are "nice to have," but not essential to your product or service, without taking the time to really understand your customers and find out if they actually need these features.
- You might hire too many employees too soon, ramping up costs beyond what you can support.
- You might get stuck in tunnel vision, focusing solely on scaling your business and not noticing other opportunities that could prove more profitable in the long run.
So what's the opposite of scaling too soon? Taking your time to "discover" was an essential characteristic of successful companies studied by The Startup Genome Report. The authors note that successful startups spent most of their time "discovering who their customers are, whereas … startups [that were unsuccessful] focused on validating that customers want their product."
"Don't underestimate how long things take," the report's authors warn. The study found that most startup entrepreneurs dramatically underestimated the time it would take to validate their market (that is, to get the product into customers' hands to confirm whether they actually wanted it). On average, this step took two to three times longer than startup founders expected.
Time is something that few startups feel they have enough of. But in this case, it seems, taking a little more time to get it right before you try to grow your company can make all the difference between success and failure.

Integrating academic foundations
An interview with
Eriko Ishida Kawai
Shishu-Kan Graduate School
Hearing, Thinking, Practicing
Launched in 2012, Kyoto University's Shishu-Kan is a one-of-a-kind graduate school, providing students the freedom to explore a broad spectrum of fields ranging from medical science, engineering, and information science to economics, law, and the humanities, and to think deeply and widely about contemporary issues facing societies around the world.
Eriko Ishida Kawai, Professor at Shishu-Kan, is part of a multidisciplinary faculty dedicated to fostering the next generation of global thinkers and doers. With her background in finance and experience at international organizations, Kawai now specializes in teaching communication skills essential for top-level negotiation, debate, and presentation. Here she talks about the advantages of studying and working in Kyoto, the opening of Shishu-Kan's new premises, and what it takes to succeed on the global stage.
First of all, could you please describe your current role at Shishu-Kan?
Kawai: My work at Shishu-Kan primarily involves advising graduate students about their future career paths and options. This year, I'm teaching communication skills to first-year to third-year students. I think there is a gap between Japanese students and overseas students in terms of their focus on developing leadership skills. I aim to help bridge this gap and encourage students who are prepared to take up new challenges.
In your view, what makes Shishu-Kan different to other graduate schools?
Kawai: One of the main goals of Shishu-Kan is to enable students to learn from a truly wide range of fields and faculties spanning the humanities, law, economics, science, agriculture, engineering, informatics, and medical and life science. To this end, Shishu-Kan offers unique modes of study, such as Jukugi (熟議, industry-government cooperation special seminars) and Hasshi (八思, lectures on integrated academic foundations). These classes are designed to promote multidisciplinary thinking and students can benefit from learning directly from industry, government, finance, and education leaders.
The name Shishu-Kan derives from mon-shi-shu, which literally means "hearing, thinking, practicing". All of the programs at Shishu-Kan place emphasis on gaining practical experience and understanding real-world issues. First-year students undertake domestic internships, for example, at welfare facilities in cooperation with local governmental bodies in and around Kyoto. Second-year students can conduct internships overseas, for example, by joining various Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) projects. In their third and fourth year, students deepen their understanding of cultures and perspectives in diverse settings and learn how to formulate policies, implement their ideas, and develop their negotiation skills. Fifth-year students focus on conducting project-based research and are expected to complete a doctoral thesis. In this way, Shishu-Kan offers one of only a few doctoral programs in Japan to cover such a comprehensive five-year program based on tailor-made curricula.
I understand that you obtained a Bachelor of Arts at Harvard University and a Master of Business Administration at INSEAD in France. Could you please describe your experiences at these institutes?
Kawai: At Harvard, I was actually the first student to attend from a public high school in Japan. In those days, I think I was always studying to catch up, without spending much time on extracurricular activities. Other students did drama and sports, but I spent nearly all of my time on study. On reflection, I can see that balancing academic and non-academic activities is important. At INSEAD, I recall there were many assignments and group study sessions held in the evenings. These study groups were made up of people with very different backgrounds, in engineering, law, accounting, and so forth. I think this format encouraged everybody to communicate and develop a "can do" approach.
What have been the biggest challenges in your career?
Kawai: One of the biggest challenges has been learning how to manage transitions. In my experience, changing career has involved living in different countries and learning new languages. During my time as a consultant at McKinsey in Paris, I learned not to be afraid. Beginning is always difficult -- the first three to six months is always hard. Perhaps now I have learned how to adapt myself to different environments. My thoughts on globalization and the need to communicate effectively in English were published in Harvard Business Review. I also wrote a book about the need to break out of a "birdcage" mentality. The book encourages readers to think about all possibilities rather than limiting themselves, and to have the courage to explore new horizons.
What would be your advice to those currently facing new transitions and career challenges?
Kawai: It's important never to give up. Focus on success, not on failure or shortcomings. Accept the fact that no one is perfect, learn from everyone, and be open-minded. In Japan, sometimes negotiation is viewed as a bad thing, in the sense that persuading somebody can create a lose-or-win situation. However, good negotiation can create win-win situations.
I also think that learning from theory is not enough. That's why I advise my students to learn from practice; collect as much information as possible and, most importantly, know what you want. That's the real art of negotiation -- understanding the minimum and the maximum, and finding something in between. I'm planning new classes that involve discussing real-life cases where negotiation is critical.
In your view, what are some of the key characteristics needed to succeed on the global stage?
Kawai: Communication skills and being able to adapt to change are essential. Also, I would advise my students that having curiosity, networking with diverse people, and engaging in teamwork projects are all equally important. Transferable skills, for example at UK universities, are also currently a hot topic. I would advise students to consider many different options and develop core professional skills.
I understand that you served as moderator for The Third Global Collaboration Symposium on Human Survivability: An Initiative of Global Leaders. Could you please tell us more about it?
Kawai: Yes, the symposium was held at Kyoto University Shiran-Kaikan on 21 November 2014. It came about as a way to stimulate discussion about global issues such as the environment, global warming, water, food, poverty, and education. We invited speakers from international organizations including the OECD, UNEP, FAO, and UNESCO. We also invited panelists from NGOs including BRAC and the NPO International Institute of Global Resilience. We discussed current activities, common issues of concern, and possible areas of collaboration between different sectors. The event provided excellent opportunities for students to engage in discussions about current issues and to develop new perspectives. We are planning to host another symposium in 2015.
What would be your advice to students based overseas who are interested in applying for graduate studies at Kyoto University?
Kawai: It's worth bearing in mind that the University is now actively focusing on efforts to promote internationalization. I understand that there are good scholarship opportunities for students overseas. There are an increasing number of English-taught degree programs and various workshops and classes conducted in English at Kyoto University.
In your view, what are the advantages of being based in Kyoto?
Kawai: From a cultural perspective, Kyoto offers unparalleled opportunities to explore temples and gardens and observe traditional arts. Unlike larger cities such as Tokyo or New York, you can virtually go anywhere in Kyoto if you have a bicycle. It's very eco-friendly. I would encourage anyone who visits Kyoto to explore the culture, history, and architecture by bike and on foot.
And finally, could you please comment on Shishu-Kan's brand new premises on Higashi-ichijo dori?
Kawai: This is a new beginning for our graduate school. We are so excited about moving to this beautiful new building, Higashi-ichijo-Kan, which officially opened on 24 February 2015. It was formerly the site of Kyoto city's Sakyo Ward Office. We will be sharing these premises with Kyoto University's Design School and other graduate programs related to sustainable development, medical science, and primatology and wildlife studies. There's a new seminar room, a library, a discussion area on the ground floor, teaching rooms, offices for faculty, and bright, open spaces designed to promote interaction. I think the building provides an excellent new foundation for both teaching and research.
Published: 17 March 2015
Eriko Ishida Kawai has over 30 years of experience working and studying in Europe and the United States. After obtaining a Bachelor of Arts from Harvard University and a Master of Business Administration from INSEAD, Prof Kawai worked for international organizations including the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in Paris, France, and the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) in Basel, Switzerland.

Tea leaves and crystal balls
In these fast-moving and turbulent times, the Bar Council's safeguarding of our profession is a surety – for now
Where does time go? So many things are moving so fast now that by the time this column is published, whatever I have written about is likely to be out of date.
When I wrote my last column, the Criminal Bar Association ballot on action had not been announced. By the time my column published the ballot had almost closed. As I write this column, the second ballot on acceptance of the Ministry of Justice and Crown Prosecution Service proposal has not yet been launched but will, I anticipate, have been concluded by the time of publication.
On the international front, news has just broken that the controversial Hong Kong Fugitive Offenders and Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Legislation (Amendment) Bill 2019 had been suspended, but not dropped. The Bar and Law Society Human Rights Committees issued a joint document criticising it and the Bar Council is monitoring the position. Whether the Bill will be dropped completely or re-introduced is anybody's guess. The Bar Council maintains links with the Hong Kong Bar as it does with many Bar associations across the world. The International Committee and the Human Rights Committee remain vigilant and supportive of both lawyers across the globe who find themselves the subject of harassment or worse and jurisdictions which face obvious problems regarding the rule of law.
Closer to home, the first round of the Tory Leadership contest has just concluded. History suggests that the favourite rarely wins a Tory leadership election, but in these turbulent times, what is the point of me speculating on that topic? What is of most concern to me, though, and not just because I may have to be making welcoming speeches, is the thought that, once again, we might see new Secretaries of State, Ministers or Law Officers. Whatever happens, I hope that these posts are considered very carefully when appointments are made. Whether you like their politics and policies or not, the current Attorney General, Lord Chancellor and Home Secretary do seem to have realised that our justice system must be looked at more holistically. It would be regrettable if they were to be swept away and their more enlightened approach with them.
Of course, the political turmoil arises from Brexit. I had thought I might be the first Chair of the Bar who had to deal with a post-Brexit landscape. Whether that comes to pass remains to be seen. It may be that my December column will not be a round-up of my year but deals instead with the post-Brexit position. But then again it may not. The Bar Council's International and EU Law Committees, together with the Brexit Working Group, are working hard to ensure that justice is not a second-class citizen in a post-Brexit world.
In Parliament two Bills have taken up much Bar Council time. The Courts and Tribunals (Online Procedure) Bill was considered in committee by the House of Lords, when no fewer than three former Lords Chief Justice and one former Lord Chancellor spoke. Lord Keen, on behalf of the government, said he would consider several matters that were raised but made no promises. The Sentencing (Pre-Consolidation) Amendments Bill was also considered by the Lords and received cross-party welcome. This relates to the Law Commission's proposal for a Sentencing Code which should make sentencing in the criminal courts far less of a minefield than hitherto. Whether sufficient parliamentary time is given to get it onto the statute book remains to be seen. The Bar Council will do all it can to try to ensure that it does.
With regard to regulation, the Bar Council has submitted a further response to the Legal Services Board's (LSB) consultation on Internal Governance Rules. You might not think that this matter is guaranteed to quicken pulses but if the LSB's proposals are implemented in their current form, the sustainability of the Bar Council, based on the so-called B+ model of regulation approved by Parliament in 2007, will be placed in doubt. Under current arrangements the Bar Council shares services with the Bar's independent regulator (the Bar Standards Board). If the BSB and the Bar Council have to disaggregate these services and instead separately commission them, the additional costs and burdens on the profession will be heavy. We had previously made the point that the LSB's proposals were ultra vires. The LSB reassessed its position and changed its approach in relation to some, but not all the proposed rules. We have reiterated our position that their proposals are still ultra vires and we must now await the LSB's final decision.
It will not surprise any of you that I do not have a crystal ball and I do not use leaf tea, so whatever I try to write on any of the above issues will be largely speculation. What I can assure you is that the dedicated team at the Bar Council, assisted tirelessly by many members of the Bar who give their time for free, will do all we can to ensure that these issues have outcomes which are to the benefit of the Bar and in the public interest.
Much of what is being done on all these fronts (and more) is funded by the voluntary Bar Representation Fee (BRF). I am saddened to see that the uptake across the Bar is still only 52%. May I encourage those of you who are not paying to reconsider your decision? If more members of the Bar paid, we could do more to support the Bar and do more internationally. It is a small price to pay to safeguard our profession for the future.

Giangiacomo Zaffini, it is fantastic you figured out how to compile winflexbison from source.
But I think it is easier to to install winflexbison on Windows using Chocolatey.
Once you installed chocolatey package manager, you can install winflexbison with the following command:
choco install winflexbison

I have used asMSX for years, and I was a great defender of that cross-assembler. But at the end of last year, as I developed a new and bigger game, I finally gave up and switched to sjasm.
Metalion, sorry asMSX didn't work out for you. I am glad you found sjasm to work well. Between fubu and I, we quashed a large number of bugs. Probably introduced some new as well Hopefully it's more stable now. Robsy did amazing work with asMSX, it has many cool unique features. But it was written in C by an assembler programmer, and as a result, almost all variables are global, most code modifies global state directly. There are no unit tests at all. Code is large enough that following through on what is going on is difficult.
What I did is use available static code analyzers (cpptest and vs2017 analyzer) and compiler warnings (gcc, clang, vs2017) and fixed the code until most of those warnings were addressed.
What fubu did is use valgrind on debug build to find potential memory leaks and address those.
What we want to do is to stabilize the code further, by moving all the logic to small, stand-alone, pure functions. Those functions would be composable and testable. And they would never touch any global state. All input and all output would be done via parameters and return. This would allow us to add test coverage for most of the code. Once the code is covered, we can start debugging lexers and parser, add new features like externded macros, inline sprite definitions, built-in data cruncher and so on, confident we won't break the functionality that's already working.
I understand there are better assemblers, but I don't want to see asMSX languish behind. For me it is an interesting challenge in refactoring. If we manage to make the code modular, testable and easy to understand and follow, I'll be very happy.
By the way, my most recent PR fixed broken wav writing code that didn't work since the original GPLv3 release by cjv99. To do this, I first wrote a python prototype, got it working, and then wrote equivalent C code.

And I respect the work on it and the vision that you have ...
But that 'NOP' bug is really annoying and still not solved with asMSX v.0.18.4
I think the team should address that specific problem as a #1 priority.
PS : Now I remember that, actually, the event that made me switch to another cross-assembler was that asMSX just stopped compiling my code. It refused to compile it. Even after restart of my computer, or changing some minor détails in the code. It just refused. Just a single line on screen saying "unable to compile" or something like that. That was the last straw.

Thanks for the feedback Metalion.
I hace still no clue about why the NOP bug happens, but I believe it is relates to the global state and the code tags from what I have seen. If we manage to refactor the code, as dhau says, into manageable modules it will be easier to trace that bug .

Are you using Windows or Linux version? Does it happen on a specific asm file or on any asm file? If you have a specific asm file, would you be willing to share it with one of us either privately through an email or better yet through a github issue?
I'd really appreciate your help.

As spring takes over campus, so too does a flowering of students' academic and intellectual pursuits, many of which will be showcased and celebrated at this year's RICE symposium.
RICE stands for Research, Internships and Creative Endeavors and is a campus-wide event that gives students an opportunity to show off what they have been working on for the past academic year.
Students do so in one of three ways: giving a presentation during a paper session, designing a poster to be displayed in the Norton Center for the Arts foyer, or by displaying creative work in a gallery, exhibition or live performance in a studio setting.
All students featured in RICE must complete registration and submit an abstract to be considered, giving them valuable experience with symposia, public speaking and presenting creative and academic work.
This is the symposium's seventh year, marking its growth from an innovative idea to a treasured campus tradition and hallmark in the life of the College.
The symposium is sponsored by the dean of the College, associate dean of the College and a grant from Dr. John Barton '79, a Centre trustee. The 2014 RICE symposium will be held April 10 – 11 on Centre's campus; posters and presentations will occur on Thursday, April 10 and an art exhibition will be held in the AEGON gallery inside the Jones Visual Arts Center on Friday, April 11.

Urinary and fecal discharge is controlled by kaegle muscles and sphincter muscles that create valves in the body to control the flow of fluids and materials. Among several applications, sphincter muscles control the discharge of food from the stomach to the small intestine, also the discharge of feces. Kegel muscles control the flow of urine from the bladder.
Up to 35% of women over the age of 60 experience urinary incontinence. Younger women whom have had several pregnancies can also experience frequent incontinence.
Healthy and strong sphincter and kegel muscles provide the pressure needed to control continence. As pressure is increased from coughing, sneezing, jumping, etc and is transmitted to kegel and sphincter muscles, the pressure differential is changed, resulting in incontinence.
Whole Body Vibration is shown to be an effective way to strengthen the sphincter and kegel muscles that prevent leakage. Muscles are strengthen involuntarily as the vibration elicits an automatic response.

Bitcoin ETFs: How Do They Work?
Understanding what is a Bitcoin ETF is not that difficult.
These funds are operated in a similar way to public equities and are traded on exchanges.
How Do They Work?
Let's suppose that you are buying Bitcoin; you need to face all the process that it takes. That includes buying as well as choosing a wallet, learning to use it, and set it up.
Now, let's use another context where you use ETFs;
Just buy an ETF - which takes care of tracking BTC - and that's it!
In this way, we can get the same returns from our investment as if we were in the actual possession of the coins we are tracking.
Another advantage of using an ETF is that we are able to earn dividends or interest.
Why Are ETFs Good
We can note that ETFs are highly valuable when it comes to mitigating risks while you are exploring hot markets. Recognized as an essential tool for wary investors, ETFs are the new perfect beginning for new investors.
The Bitcoin ETFs take Bitcoin as their sightless asset.
ETFs will help the investors; when you buy ETFs you do not have to worry about its challenges like how to maintain a Bitcoin wallet or keeping it safe from hackers.
People who invest in ETFs are able to explore and to get exposure to certain assets even without actually physically buying them.
Bitcoin ETFs are passive investment instruments; this means we don't have to be managing or supervising them, and we don't even need to pay fees to investment professionals.
When you buy bitcoin ETFs, you automatically acquire shares in a portfolio, which is linked to a market index which replicates its performance.
Another benefit about Bitcoin ETFs is that they allow all the investors to short sell shares or any other asset. For example, if they believe that the Bitcoin price will go down, they can enter a short position on Bitcoin - something we can't do with the traditional cryptocurrency market without actually owning the asset first.
Are these Bitcoin ETFs affecting the price of Bitcoin?
Many investors and analysts think ETFs will help increase the cryptocurrency's adoption and lead their prices upwards. With Bitcoin ETFs, investors are able to trade Bitcoin in a more convenient way.
So, if you are an investor who is looking to get involved in this world of digital cryptocurrencies, but you don't have the time to learn all the benefits and risks of the crypto investment space, you can invest in ETFs as an alternative.

"I thought that Kajol was the best actress suited for the role. She fitted the bill perfectly to the T", he states.
Ajay insists that it was a conscious decision on his part to go in for talented actors instead of stars for his film. "I was clear of what I wanted, the day my script was ready. I wanted to cast Kajol, Karan, Sumeet Raghavan etc in my film. Isn't every director supposed to take a conscious decision to cast good actors so that he can mould them according to the way the script demands", exclaims Ajay.
Ajay confesses that he did experience a high as a director. "As a director, I find very hard pressed for time. Lot of work still needs to be done and the post production work is draining me off. All said and done, I do not think my life or for that matter my life style has changed in any way ever since I turned a director. I am the same family man even now, and long to spend more time with my daughter Nysa and wife Kajol", chirps Ajay.
Ajay concedes that it was not at all tough for him to act as well as direct himself in his maiden venture U, Me & Hum. "I had the entire vision of my film very clear in my mind right from Day One when I set out to launch my film and hence I found that it was quite easy for me to act as well as direct at the same time".
The major lesson that he says he had learnt after producing Raju Chacha was not to go mad and overspend. "The film did wel,l but it did not enable me to recover my cost of production. As far as U, Me & Hum is concerned, I saw to it that I did not go over board as a producer. Yet, at the same time I did not cut down on the costs either. I managed to strike a neat balance as a producer as far as U, Me & Hum is concerned".
Ajay does not want to divulge details about his role in Shree Asthtavinayak's film Golmaal Returns; because he thinks it is too early now. "All that I would say is that I play Kareena Kapoor's husband in the film. The film has a lot of situational humor embedded to it. Rohit Shetty who had directed Golmaal is directing this one too, though it is not a sequel. Golmaal Returns is part of the Golmaal series and does not necessarily have the same characters of Golmaal, except for one or two".
Ajay has no regrets that Sunday with Rohit Shetty as the director had flopped, though he had put in his best foot forward as an actor, because according to him there is no way you can guarantee success or failure of a film before it is released. "We never frankly thought that his Golmaal would turn out to be so funny and be a big hit at the box office. While Sunday had a restrained comedy, Golmaal Returns is an out and out over the top comedy. We had a ball working on the sets".
Ajay admits that he is very choosy as far as his films are concerned. "As an actor, I go by the script first and the director and the producer afterwards. Besides a good script and a good director, you need a sound producer to see through the completion of your film. I like good work because I enjoy doing good work. Though it may sound very clichéd, I feel that as an actor, it is good to do different roles because it keeps you going as an actor instead of letting you stagnate in your path".
Ajay says that he is quite amused by the rumors that Rajji and he have fallen out after the dismal fate of Halla Bol at the box office. "I do not judge a filmmaker by the performance of his last film at the box office. I am committed to Rajji for his Ashoka as well as Ramayan"
Besides Golmaal Returns, Ajay has a couple of releases like One Two Three, U, Me & Hum and Kirit Khurana's Toonpur Ka Super Hero with him and Kajol as live characters along with animated cartoon characters.

It was the end of last month when Daft Punk popped out a rather lacklustre video clip for their new single 'Lose Yourself To Dance'. At just one minute in length, we weren't sure what it was supposed to be.
Turns out, it was just the precursor for this altogether longer edition of the official video clip.
But before you get too excited… it's pretty much the same just longer, as we circumnavigate the band (with Pharrell & Nile, no less) in the confines of what looks like a futuristic space craft.
We're not entirely sure that it's enough to get their audience excited enough to make this single as big a global hit as its predecessor, but they've given it a crack, bless 'em.

Can Autism Be Detected In Babies? Researchers Get $9.5M To Find Out
RALEIGH, N.C. — The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is leading a research team looking to see if autism can be detected sooner.
The research team, co-led by Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, was given a $9.5 million grant from the National Institute of Mental Health to see if brain imaging can be used to detect a "high risk of autism" in infants, according to UNC Health Care.
Researchers want to eventually be able to detect autism before symptoms show.

They believe that being able to do so will allow treatment to begin at a younger age, which would help children with the disorder, UNC Health Care said.
Researchers will use MRI scans to look at the brains of 250 babies between the ages of 6 and 12 months who have siblings with autism. They will also examine their language development and behaviors that could predict a diagnosis.
"Our goal is to identify differences in the brain in infancy that accurately predict which children are most likely to later develop autism so that we can begin to eventually explore the effects of pre-symptomatic treatment in those infants at highest risk," Dr. Joseph Piven, a leader of the research team and professor at UNC-Chapel Hill, indicated.
Dr. John R. Pruett, another leader on the team and professor at Washington University School of Medicine, told UNC Health Care that the first phase of the study identified "brain imaging predictors of a later autism diagnosis" in 6-month-olds that were at a high risk for autism.
In the next phase, the researchers are working with different babies to see if they get the same findings, Pruett said.
"In the future, we hope to test behavioral interventions earlier in high-risk infants who, currently, are still too young to receive an autism diagnosis," he said.

Recommendations for a bag for passport.
Hi so I'm going to portaventura in October and I'm wondering if you know of any small bags that I can keep belongings (passport, money) in so it won't get stolen. is my best bet something like a fanny pack? Something around the neck? Or just using my zippered pockets in my shorts? I would appreciate some direction. Thanks a bunch.
Re: Recommendations for a bag for passport.
Just noticed this now. Just Google "money belt". You'll find plenty of options. Here is one on Amazon. I used one just like this when I backpacked Europe after graduating college. Hope this helps, and enjoy your trip.

Good Family Crest
The English and Irish surname Good is a nickname from the Middle English term gode meaning "good." The name may also derive from a medieval personal name, a survival of the Old English personal name Goda, which was in part a byname and in part a short form of various compound names with the first element god. When found in Ireland the name is most frequently found in the southern province of Munster, particularly in county Cork where it was brought by 16th Century settlers from England. The name is first found in the New World in 1638 when Thomas Good arrived in Virginia. Today there are 35,000 bearers of the name Good living in the US.

Why Physical Culture Fails
In spite of the vastly increased attention given nowadays to physical culture, the modem civilized man often exhibits marked signs of physical deterioration, Here is a very interesting explanation by a member of the Jb acuity, of the apparent paradox.
THE immense value of physical culture is to-day not disputed; its beneficial results are utilized to the full by the medical profession in the treatment of consumption, obesity, heart diesase, dyspepia, deformities, and many other departures from the healthy state. Such a craze, indeed, f ; exercise has arisen that its devotees are now more in danger from ovei-exertion than the reverse. In Norway tuberculosis is rife; in Sweden—the foremost gymnastic country in the world—onethird of the population dies before the age of twenty-one, and of the males who are left one-quarter are rejected for military service. In Germany only fiftj-four per cent, of the males are accepted for the Army, while England, the land of sport and open-air exercise, with a voluntary military service, is some degrees worse.
Now, the object of physical culture is to fit a man for the duties of daily life, so that he will be a better workman, a better citizen, a healthy man in the highest sense of that term. During exercise, seven times more air passes through the lungs than when at rest, and this has an enormous reflex influence on the whole body, stimulating the vital functions, burning up the waste matter, and expelling the poisons manufactured by the living tissues. The seeds of insomnia, nervous disease, and Bright's disease are sown by inaction, and ■ sooner or later a sedentary man must become dyspeptic. Old age is kept at bay by rational exer-
cise. All centenarians have been active men.
What can possibly account, then, in the presenec of such a wave of enthusiasm for physical exercise, for the existence of so much physical deterioration °!
The first reason is the absence of system. Haphazard exercise is of very little use. Physical culture is exercise, but exercise with a systematized purpose to guide it good results are not likely to be obtained without the recognition of this fact. To be positively useful a system of physical culture must be comprehensive, easy of application, and must not absorb much time. There can, however, be no universal system— none applicable to the needs of everybody. The nearest approach to such a system is that originally introduced by Ling, and now much extended and developed under the name of '1 The Swedish System of Physical Education." Its design is to train, not to strain, the body, to teach us how to make the best use of each muscle, and how to develop each organ to its full physiological limit.
The objection is often advanced that a man gets a sufficient amount ' of exercise in his daily occupation, and has neither time, inclination, nor energy for any more. But, it cannot be sufficiently emphasized, work is not exercise. In work a man does all he can to save exertion, and is seldom called upon to contract to the full any one of his muscles. His aim, indeed, is to save this contractile effort and to depend on the auto-
matic action of the muscle, his brain being in the object of his work, not in the conscious use of the muscles themselves. To effectively exercise a muscle, all the attention of the brain is required to contract it to the full.
Even where a man is engaged in an open-air occupation, such as gardening, it is wise to practice some form of physical culture to obviate the tendency to deformity which in these days of specialism is peculiar to each occupation, and to give gracefulness to the movements and agility and quickness to the body. Of all occupations gardening is the most healthful, yet it is very rare to see a well-formed, agile, perfectly healthy gardener. Most suffer from rheumatic pains, and there is an unnatural hardness in many of the muscles of the back—due to a development of connective tissue—a condition termed "muscle-bound," defects which could easily be prevented by appropriate exercises. A modified form of compulsory military service is, in my opinion, a most admirable means of counteracting the tendency to physical deterioration in youth.
The second reason for the existence of physical deterioration is the adoption of a wrong system. This is very much worse than having no system at all, as much actual damage may easily be done to the internal organs. A wrong system often leads to a complete breakdown!
Broadly speaking, a community may be divided into two classes, the weak and the strong, and it is absolutely certain that not every weak man can become a strong man, no matter how much exercise he may indulge in. Strong men are born, not made. Physical culture may make a weak man strong, but only if he belongs to the strong type. Strength is a gift which increases
with use, and the legitimate object of physical culture is to develop the bodily powrers to their full physiological limit, beyond which it is dangerous to proceed.
On the other hand, a weak man may nearly always become a healthy man, though it is folly to attempt to emulate the professional strong man and expect, by even the most diligent use of certain exercises and apparatus, to approach him in strength. This, unfortunately, frequently does not become patent, however, until much damage has been wrought to the physical powers, and especially to the heart and nervous system.
The man whom I have designated the weak man may, like the racehorse, perform in his particular sphere as much, and possibly even more work, than the so-called strong man, who in turn is only useful as a beast of burden, and comparable to the cart-horse. The principle adopted in training is that of Milo and the calf—the addition of a little each day but, however true in theory, such a system is most difficult in practice, on account of the impossibility of knowing precisely how much should be added each day, or of recognizing when the proper limit has been reached. Violent exertion can never be useful, and almost always ends in irreparable strains, such as the rupture of a blood-vessel, or stretching the heart, examples of which are constantly coming before medical men. We must not for a single moment confuse physical culture for health with such systems, or even with needless and injurious forms of athleticism. Far more nervous systems are wrecked and exhausted by ill-directed over-exertion than can be' cured by intelligent culture of the physique.
A third reason is the adoption of a wrong diet. A great deal of erroneous teaching, which, because it is anunciated with impertinent emphasis, passes for gospel, has been lately promulgated on this subject. I have never subscribed to the doctrine that we are all given to over-eating, and yet this is the text which lately has occasioned more sermons than any other. My observation has convinced me, as it has many another man in my profession, that a very large proportion of people eat too little, and are much under-nourished. If there be any fault at all, it lies in taking too much proteid—i.e., the part of the food usually considered to contain the nourishment. If the well-to-do are in the habit of eating too much animal food, the same indictment can certainly not be made against the ordinary working-man.
It has been clearly shown by Professor Chittenden, working under the auspices of the United States Agricultural Bureau, that perfect health may be maintained on one ounce of animal food per day. But no amount of experimentation will ever carry conviction, because in this, as in most other things, every man is a law unto himself, and serious objection must always be taken to the theory of the ardent apostle that what suits him must of necessity suit every other man.
The old-fashioned method of training on great quantities of lean meat was based on a fallacy, was eminently risky, and was responsible for many cases of staleness and actual breakdown. Animal food is stimulating, and its strength-giving properties are more rapidly transferred to the tissues of the body but it fails to give the same amount of endurance as vegetable proteid, so that, in a contest where staying power is
required, a well-fed vegetarian is likely to lower the colors of the meateater. The athlete, however, should carefully study the pros and cons of the dietetic problem so far as they refer to his own case.
Whatever may be said of the merits of the two-meal-a-day and even the one-meal-a-day plan, three meals a day have stood the test of experience, and are much more likely to be generally useful to the average man. The additional afternoon-tea, with its two or three cups of stewed tea and unlimited supplies of cake and bread and butter, is certainly the cause of more indigestion and other maladies than all the others together. Were this meal alone omitted, many persons afflicted with obesity would soon lose their excess of adipose tissue. The hot saccharine fluid, with starch and fatty accompaniments, is replete with fat-producing elements, and if only half an ounce per day be added to the weight in this way, it means almost a stone by the end of the year! The Japanese drinks a great deal of tea; but, besides preparing it in such a way as to extract the volatile oil, which gives the flavor, without disolving out the theine, the active principle to which are due the intoxicating properties of tea, he adds neither milk nor sugar. His tea-drinking, therefore, is simply a means of imbibing agreeably flavored, sterilised water.
A fourth reason for physical deterioration is to be found in the many erroneous ideas still extant regarding bathing. The remedial agencies supplied by nature are by no means to be despised but it appears to me that we have misunderstood the true function of the bath, which is, after all, primarily to cleanse. No, doubt a morning plunge in cold water has
a bracing or tonic effect on most strong young men; but, in principle, a tonic is quite wrong, especially in the morning—the time when, on account of our long night's rest, we stand least in need of it. A tonic is in the nature of a stimulant, and he who indulges in this luxury must be prepared to pay the penalty, which, sooner or later, is demanded of all. We are everlastingly hearing of the reaction which it is necessary to obtain after a cold bath, and the explanation is given that we must have a healthy glow all over our skin just after the plunge. But this is a most fallacious test. There are very few who do not experience this feeling of delight and pleasurable glow as a sequence of a cold plunge bath. The true test of the suitability of the bath is to feel this healthy glow' all through the day. Now, for one wdio fails 'to get this so-called reaction immediately after the bath there are dozens who do, and yet feel tired, depressed, cold, and irritable three or four hours after. They never associate these m pleasant feelings with their morning cold bath, though they are decided indications for dispensing with such a dangerous stimulant. It is no uncommon experience to find many w'ho, relying on the pleasurable after-glow and ignoring the subsequent drowsiness and discomfort, continue to bath when it has begun to do their bodies serious damage. As in many other things, the Japanese is here again in the right. The well-trained athlete of Japan would scout the notion of taking a cold bath, whereas he absolutely revels in the excessively hot bath, taking, one at least every day, and staying in for one or more hours on each occasion. For the great majority of people, especially in the morning and
after exercise, a tepid soap-and-water bath, followed by friction with a good Turkish towel, is the best form of introduction to the duties of the day.
A fifth reason is to be found in the tendency to adopt a wrong position in standing, sitting, and walking. We stand chiefly on one foot, and one shoulder becomes higher than die other; we sit in the same position as the "scorcher" on his bicycle, often with our legs crossed, and thus the spine gets twisted, the pelvis distorted, and the sciatic nerves damaged by pressure. We pursue our occupations with one hand or one arm, and so become lop-sided and unequally developed. We walk with protruding abdomen, and head shot forward between the shoulders, instead of being thoroughly braced up with the back of the neck touching the upper edge of the collar. Many deformities are produced, and even much indigestion brought on, by the slovenly position adopted at table ; indolence is not the only reason for reclining on a couch at meal-times, as is the general custom in the East. Eupepsia is encouraged, and the most lively sense of bien-etre induced, by half an hour's rest after meals flat on the back, with the hips elevated on a cushion, the neck supported by the same means.
A sixth reason is the lack of openair life, the common lot of all citydwellers. The greatest surgical discovery of the nineteenth century was dirt, matter in the wrong place which attacks every solution of continuity of the human skin; the greatest medical discovery that will be made in this century will be dust. It takes at least two hours in fresh open-air each day to counteract the effects of the dust we inhale in dining-room,
drawing-room, bedroom, workshop, city street, and country road alike, without estimating the wear and tear of the tissues due to nature's excretory effort to intercept this terrible enemy. If we would evade this death-dealing dust, the cause alike of consumption, sore throat, cold in the head, and pneumonia, it is essential to betake ourselves to parks and open-air spaces, green fields, and country lanes.
Many diseases of the alimentary canal, especially acute diarrhoea, are directly brought about by the contamination of food which has been exposed in a dust-polluted atmosphere, and, in these days of motorcars, far more elaborate precautions ought to be taken to protect milk, meat, fruit and vegetables, from dust and flies, which, after feeding on garbage of all kinds, bestow their attention on milk and other foods displayed at shop-doors and in other equally unprotected places.
An important factor in this connexion is the length of ladies' dresses. When the wearers enter and leave public conveyances, cross streets, and even sometimes wThile walking, skirts are allowed to trail in the dust, from which they catch up innumerable colonies of microbes, and transfer them alike to public meeting-places and private dwellinghouses.
A seventh reason is closely bound up with the last—viz., the question of recreation. "Recreation" and exercise for physical culture are not by any means the same thing. The former term should be applied only to such exercises or sports as do not require any close application of the mind, and, indeed, are usually undertaken more as a relief to the mind than as a development of the body.
For the latter purpose, the most careful concentration of the mind on the movements performed is necessary, and, without in any way exhausting or overstraining the organs of the body, fifteen or twenty minutes daily will keep the body in the highest state of physical perfection, though the too ardent pursuit of such exercise is apt to degenerate into mere muscle-culture, far in excess of the requirements of the body, and making great demands on the organs of circulation and respiration. It is often associated with ready exhaustion and a feeling of listlessness or staleness overtaking both body and mind, caused by the muscular and nervous system being filled with the acid waste products of fatigue. In such a condition the body demands rest and the return to that normal amount of exercise which experience has taught to be sufficient.
When, however, on account of a sedentary occupation, or of the too limited use of the muscles in the daily occupation, a feeling of exhaustion is brought about, then it is an indication to indulge in some form of exertion which demands no waste of nervous energy by mental concentration. Games such as golf, billiards, and bowls are excellent examples of exercise for recreative purposes. It is even conceivable that in such circumstances justification may be found for occasionally watching a football or cricket match, though this is no vindication for those who thus spend all their leisure time indulging in no form of exercise whatever, and deluding themselves with the belief that they are athletes.
The last reason worthy of mention is an inordinate love of pleasure and ease which seems to be the special
peculiarity of people in our days. It has been said that it is better to wear out than to rust out; but pleasure is far more exhausting than work. Sensations of pleasure and pain are both conveyed by the same nerves, and a too frequent repetition of the pleasureable sensation is speedily followed by a diminution of the power to please and the substitution of pain.
"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy ; '1 but our pleasures should be sought for in the ordinary course of our everyday occupation, or in the recreations we indulge in as a relief to our minds and bodies. The pursuit of pleasure as an end in itself is always to be depreciated, and usually ends in an exhausted mind and an exhausted body.

Two factors causing environmental change are increased demand for natural resources and institutional arrangements. This view is criticized as it states that only centralized government and private property could sustain the resources. Effective governance can be achieved through multileveled institutions to create rule compliance in users.

Governing these resources is a struggle because it involves balancing between human interests and earth's sustainability. Such needs an effective governance mechanism achieved when resources and uses can be monitored and the information understood, here is moderate change in the use and users of the resources, frequent communication among users, exclusion of outside users and users supporting monitoring and rule enforcement.
Pressure on resource governance institutions are widely influenced thus need to link governance from the global to local level. Adaptive governance relies on factual information as well as information on values and uncertainty. Conflict needs to be dealt with because of different power and values while participatory process can be used to test alternative strategies in conflict resolution.
Rule compliance can bee enhanced through imposing sanctions for offenders formally and informally which should be accepted by users. Resources should be allocated for monitoring and enforcement as lack would negate the efforts. Financial incentives can also be used. Infrastructure; physical, technological and institutional should be provided.
Strategies that meet the requirements of adaptive governance are analytical deliberation among stakeholders to agree on rules. Nesting involves structuring the institutions in many levels hence avoiding centralization and finally having a variety of governance institutions.

Informal description of the client deanonymization attack on the Bitcoin P2P network.
The attack can reveal the public IP address of the user who generated a transaction as well as the entry nodes which connect the user's node to the rest of the Bitcoin network. In the case of users behind NAT (the most common case in the current Bitcoin network) the IP address is an address of the user's ISP which in some cases may correctly point to the user's street or even home*.
- See this paper, section 2 for a Survey of IP Geolocation Techniques. Some accuracy tests of a GeoIP2 City database can be found here.
One may argue however that a large ISP may serve as a good anonymizer, moreover a more careful user may go through multiple VPNs, or through anonymity network like Tor, and thus IP geolocation would be irrelevant in his case. This is true, but the less obvious bit is that the set of entry nodes would still serve as a unique user ID in all these seemingly anonymous cases. Knowing even only three of these nodes (out of total eight in most cases) serves as a unique user ID for the duration of a session (until Bitcoin client software is closed or until the computer is switched off). The crucial idea is that when a user generates a transaction the entry nodes are very likely to be among the first to forward the transaction. We show that the set of entry nodes can be learned at the time of connection and then used to identify the origin of a transaction and link transactions made during one session even if they belong to new or unrelated public keys in the transaction graph.
The attack targets the anonymity of Bitcoin users on the network level and is complementary to what can be found via transaction graph analysis. We also show that the attacker can ban all Tor exit nodes (or public proxies) by exploiting Bitcoin's anti-DoS protection.
The attack may consist of the following steps:
- (Optional) Ban connections to Bitcoin network from Tor (or target public proxy service) by sending malformed messages through each Tor exit node to each Bitcoin peer server (i.e. Bitcoin peer accepting incoming connections).
- Establish many connections to each Bitcon server (about 50). All connections can be established from a few machines, the number depends on how stealthy the attacker wants to be.
- Listen to the clients advertising their address on the connections established during step 2 and for each client's IP address save the peers from which the advertised address is received; we call these nodes entry nodes, even 3 of them uniquely identify the client.
- Listen for transactions. If a transaction is first relayed by a subset of entry nodes of some client, mark the transaction as belonging to this client.
The attack requires only a few machines that establish a certain number of connections by Bitcoin protocol and log the incoming traffic. In a concrete example, an attacker with a few GB of storage and no more than 50 connections to each Bitcoin server can disclose the sender's IP address in 11% of all transactions generated in the Bitcoin network. If the attacker allows a slight DoS of the network, he may achieve deanonymization rates up to 60%, which has been confirmed by the experiments in the Bitcoin test network. We estimate the cost of the attack on the full Bitcoin network to be under 1500 EUR per month.
You can find to some common questions in related FAQ.
- Q. Will attack find my wallet if I run multiple nodes, and the one node that talks to the outside world would have an empty wallet?
- A. Yes, it will. The attack will determine the public IP address of the node which talks to the outside world. Since an octet of entry nodes can serve as your personal identifier if you make several transactions during one session all these transactions from all your wallets can be linked, even if they use different new public keys. The same thing holds if a user is behind multiple VPNs and even if the user goes through the Tor network.
- Q. Dan Kaminsky demonstrated that it is relatively easy to tie bitcoin addresses to IP addresses by watching the network, so what's new here?
- A. This analysis will work only for peers who are not behind NATs (we call them servers) or users who were unlucky to connect to one of the attacker's nodes (note that most of the peers (about 100000 vs 8000) are behind NATs and cannot not be connected to). Our analysis handles users behind NATs. Moreover it will distinguish two users from the same ISP since their octet IDs would be different. Our attack has a very low false positive rate.
- Q. Even if Tor Exit servers are banned by the attacker, Tor hidden services should still work?
- A. Not necessarily. Individual hidden services can be black-holed, this requires only a bit of sophistication on the part of the attacker and is very cheap to mount. Moreover It might be possible to ban guard nodes and thus make Bitcoin hidden services unusable.
- Q. How noticeable is this attack and what kind of resources it requires?
- A. The Tor disconnection part is easy to mount from a single computer but is fairly noticeable, since all bitcoin transactions made via Tor would fail. The octet identifier sniffing requires to make 30-50 connections to each bitcoin "server" peer to be more reliable. This would be less noticeable if done from a distributed set of IP addresses in a gradual manner. It requires some dedication and patience from the attacker, but it is quite cheap (about 50 IP addresses would be enough).
- Q. Are altcoins affected as well?
- A. We did not check it on other alt-currencies, but those that share Bitcoin's P2P network code should have similar problems.
- Q. What could be the countermeasures?
- A. Refreshing the entry nodes after every transaction (assuming that a new connections are chosen at random) should prevent the attack. The attack would also not work if many users share a proxy. However if such proxy is publicly known the attacker can force Bitcoin servers to ban its address.
- Q. Are mobile clients affected?
- A. Yes, this is similar to the clients of an ISP case.
- Q. Is this attack related to the de-anonymization attacks by Shamir et al., Meiklejohn et. al. and some others?
- A. No, what we do is complementary to the Bitcoin transaction graph analysis. Those attacks analyze the transaction graph in the offline mode and try to correlate the Bitcoin pseudonym(s) and glue pseudonyms together. Our attack works on the network level and can link transactions in real time even if the pseudonyms are new or totally unrelated in the transaction graph.

Bad Granny Motorsports 2015
From what I've heard, piecing together an event is kind of like restoring a car- a complete pain in the ass, but Bad Granny did a great job combining classic cars, with motorsport clubs, new car companies, off-roaders, stunt bikes, automotive suppliers, media, drifting, kart racing and just about anything with wheels.
TTKA Kart Racing event #1 2015
The TTKA hosted its first event of the year last Sunday February 8th on a beautiful sunny day up at the Arima Race Club Carpark. Classes started off with the Cadets, followed by Comer (100cc), Briggs and Stratton, Jr Max, Shifters and Rotax International.
TTKA Race Day #1 2014
The Trinidad and Tobago Karting Association held its first championship event for this season on April 27 after several false starts during the first quarter of this year. Track conditions were ideal as the weather was warm and sunny in east Trinidad providing ideal racing conditions for competitors at the ARC. There were two fully subscribed classes competing but the protagonists in attendance had a wonderful day of competitive action.
TTKA Karting #3 2013
While most of you were tucked away under your blankets on Sunday, the Trinidad and Tobago Karting Association hosted its third even of the 2013 season. Despite overcast skies and a wet track, this race meet was the most successful for the year. Karters came out in their numbers and we saw the return of several racers who have been absent from the sport for some time.
TTKA Karting #2 2013
The 2013 Championship series continued on Sunday 10th March as the Trinidad and Tobago Karting Association hosted their second event of the year. Qualifying for pole positions started things off and with times fractions of seconds apart, each class promised an action packed day.
TTKA Kart Racing #1 2013
Karting action kicked off on Sunday 17th February to signal the start of the 2013 Karting Season. In the most exciting set of heats for the day, the Rotax International class started off with newcomers Aaron Ramsey (#43) in his first ever Karting race. Moving up from 100 CC class to a more competitive arena we have the likes of newcomers Che Carrington (#175) and Shane Pinheiro (#29). Marc Gill (#8) also joined the Rotax International class for the 2013 season. Dominating the first race of the season we had Che Carrington blasting off and improving his time with every lap of the 10 lap heat. There was no stopping Che as he continued to show dominance in the race.
TTKA Karting Finals 2012 at Brian Lara Stadium
The final event was held at the Brian Lara Stadium Taruba and the course laid out was a fast flowing sequences of fast left handed corners into even faster right handed corners. Bridgette Singh put in a masterful drive to clinch the 2012 TTKA Rotax International Championship. It was a tough battle for the entire season and she had to fight off her male counter parts, the closest competitor being Kristian Boodoosingh.
TTKA Karting #6
The 6th round of the TTKA championship resumed at its usual arena the ARC carpark . The weather again was up to its mischief , firstly with hot sun then a thunderous downpour and finallly to a cool overcast condition with a rapidly drying track. Qualifying was done with the sun out but the track still wet. Pole positions went to Jonmysay Sant ( MiniMax), Frankie Boodram ( Cadet), Shiva Supersad (Rotax Junior) , Haymant Singh (100cc), Reza Ali (Rotax International), Ryan Peyrau( Rotax Masters). All the competitors gave a great effort in qualifying , but special mention should be given to Haymant Singh who put down a masterful drive in a very slippery and tricky track.

Fifty Shades Of Grey is going to stay under wraps for six months longer than originally planned.
That means we're going to have to wait until February 2015 (Valentine's weekend to be exact) to get a glimpse of Jamie Dornan as the kinky Christian Grey. Why would they do this to us?
The news that the film's release date has been pushed back – it was initally meant to be in cinemas in August 2014 – comes at the same time as the first photos of Jamie and Dakota Johnson as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele were released.
'We've been looking really closely at the August date and becoming more and more convinced that the right thing to do for the movie was to push it', said Universal Picture's Donna Langley in Entertainment Weekly.
Latest Stories
The film hasn't got off to the easiest start, with Charlie Hunnam pulling out of the lead role several months ago. However, we're more than happy with his replacement, the 31-year old Jamie Dornan.
We're just sad we have to wait so long to see the movie. Still, it will make for a nice Valentine's present…
