|Best way to extract mysql bin logs?
|Tue, 09 Aug 2011 18:42:37 GMT
Hi :) ! I have a use case where I want to keep a historical record of all the changes (insert/update/delete) happening on a MySQL DB. I am able to tail the bin logs and record them in HDFS, but they are not easy to parse because one operation is split on many lines. There are some comments that include the timestamp, the total time it took to execute the query and other stuff. A lot of this extra info is not relevant, but the timestamp is important for me, and I thought I might as well keep the rest of the info as well since the raw data gives me the option of going back to look for these other fields if I determine later on that I need them. Now, the fact that it's split over many lines makes it harder to use with Map/Reduce. I have thought of using a custom M/R RecordReader but I still have the problem that some of the lines related to one operation will be at the end of one HDFS file and the rest will be at the beginning of the next HDFS file, since I am opening and closing those files at an arbitrary roll time. I think the easiest way would be to do some minimal ETL at the source. I think I could use a custom decorator for this. Basically, that decorator would group together on a single line all the bin log lines that relate to a single DB operation. The original lines would be separated by semi-colons or some other character in the final output. I wanted to check with you guys to see if that approach made sense. If you have better suggestions, then I'm all ears, of course. Also, if you think there is an easier way than reading the bin logs to accomplish my original goal, then I'd like to hear about it as well :) Thanks :) ! -- Felix

Temperature Effects on Sea Turtle Sex Ratios and the Potential Impact of Climate Change
Admittedly, I know very little about sea turtles. After starting my internship at the National Marine Life Center I decided to order a book specifically dedicated to the biology and behavior of these mysterious oceanic reptiles. One interesting fact I came across while reading was that the temperature at which the eggs are incubated determines whether or not the turtle will be male or female.Most vertebrates have sex chromosomes (XX for female and XY for male), however, sea turtles lack these chromosomes.
Females need warmer temperatures in order to develop. For example, in green turtles, temperatures need to be 88 F or above for the eggs to become females. For males to develop the temperature is around 82 F. If the temperature of incubation falls somewhere between 82 and 88 F, a mixture of the sexes develop. Heat produced by the eggs themselves can also contribute to the incubation temperature – eggs in the center of the nest become females and the eggs along the periphery become males (Spotila 2004).
If temperature affects the sex ratio of sea turtles, how might climate change impact populations in the future? Currently, sea turtle populations that nest in the southern portion of the United States are predominately female biased. It has been suggested (Hawkes 2007) that if there is even a 1 C warming of average temperatures, an even more significant bias could occur. If average warming exceeds 3 C, mortality rates of the eggs may also occur.
Climate change may also affect the nesting grounds of turtles if sea levels rise. Beaches currently being used by turtles may vanish under the sea. Ocean acidification (caused by increased CO2 levels) could potentially alter the sediment of the beaches, which may lead to inadequate conditions for incubation (Fuentes et al 2011). Sea turtles select their nesting sites based on several factors, such as low salinity, sufficient space above the hide tide line, adequate vegetation (for some species), high humidity, etc (Hawkes 2007). All of these may be affected by an increase in average global temperatures.
Future studies need to be conducted to better estimate the current sex ratios of the various sea turtle species in order to better predict how these will be affected by changes in nesting/incubation environments. Some possible ways that sea turtles may prevent extremely biased female sex ratios are by nesting earlier (cooler periods), nesting at higher latitudes (more north), changing the depth at which they bury their eggs, or changing the type of substrate they bury their eggs in (i.e. type of sand). That way more eggs will develop into males that might have otherwise been females (Fuentes 2011).
Just recently (August 18 2011), the first sea turtle nest was discovered in Delaware. Sea turtles are not known to nest that far north as well as that late in the season. They typically lay their nests on the coasts on South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Alex Hoar, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's Northeast Endangered Species Coordinator said that, "And with global warming, events such as this may be a sign of what is to come" (Delaware Online).

My name is Meg and I am researching the effect of temperature changes in the ocean on sea turtles and was wondering if I could ask a couple questions?
What can people at my school do to help?
What are the most important things to know about the sea turtles being effected by the temperature change?
What is your favorite fact about the sea turtles?
Thank you,
Sea turtles are very weird.
Wow! Thanks for writing this up. This is a topic I've been wanting to do research on myself! I've known about temperature dependent sex determination for a while – but the additional detail on how it works makes it so much clearer!
Thank you for the information. It is frightening to thing about the impact of climate change on endangered species such as sea turtles.

Are you overwhelmed often? Do you not have enough hours in your day? Are you envious of others who seem to get everything done on time? If you do, then you can certainly make better use of your time by choosing to learn about time management. Read on as the tips below can help.
Do as much work as you can in advance. If you can, be sure you start working on what you need done tomorrow before the day arrives. A great way to finish your day is to create tomorrow's to-do list. This ensures you can get up and get moving.
Do not procrastinate or else you will not meet deadlines. An impending deadline means you have to put other tasks on the back burner. When on track, you will reduce tension during your tasks.
Wisely allocate time. Consider the amount of time required to complete each task, and provide yourself with a certain amount of time to handle each task. Organization is key to time management. When you have free time, use it to play catch up.
Set a schedule for the tasks you want to complete in the morning. By planning your day at the beginning of the day, you will know what you need to get accomplished during the day and can plan effectively. Spend some time looking over your day's plan to make sure that you will be able to accomplish it all.
When scheduling a day, don't forget to include time for interruptions. Things happen. If you don't allocate time for little things that crop up during the day, you will get off schedule very quickly. Plan for interruptions so you can manage to stay on track.
Analyze just what you have been doing wrong if you struggle with time management. Are you focusing on one task at a time until it is done? If not, why? You must figure out where you are going wrong so that you can correct it.
Take time to make a priority list. Unimportant or less urgent tasks may take up too much time. Task prioritization allows you to use your time and energy efficiently on the most important tasks. List the things you want to accomplish, starting with the most important things first.
Say no. Undue stress often occurs just because people can't tell when to say no. Evaluate your schedule if you find that you are often overbooked. Is there any work there that could be delegated to others? Turn to your loved ones for help.
Get up fifteen minutes earlier so that you can review your day before you jump into it. Get paper and a pen, and jot down everything you need to accomplish and how long it will take. This will ensure you stay on track all day.
Keep your office door closed so others don't disturb you. An open door invites people in to discuss work related issues and any other problems they might have. Just by closing the door, you get instant privacy. People know that you are looking for quiet, so you'll be able to complete things on time.
Consult your schedule. Can you eliminate one or more daily tasks? Could any work be delegated to others, allowing free time for yourself? Learning how to delegate is important for real time management. Let things go and you'll have more time for your own tasks.
Stay organized and on task at all times. Don't get distracted by other things that pop up during a single task. Sometimes people try to prioritize your time by giving you tasks while you are still working on one. Never allow this to happen. Before accepting a task, finish the one you're working on.
List everything you have to do every day, and make sure you list them in the order that they are important. Slowly make your way down the list. If you cannot remember all the tasks on your list, make a copy and carry it with you.
Keep a diary of your time management. For a week, write down what you do every day and the time it takes to do it. After a few days, check the diary to figure out which areas need improvement.
As you build your daily schedule, focus on importance of tasks. This helps you to prioritize your organizing. Think about which things are most important. List the important things first, then the rest of your tasks. Then, work on the things that are less important.
Think about how much work is needed for every task to help you manage your time more effectively. Don't put too much time and effort into the more menial tasks. Devote just enough effort to doing each task on the schedule to reach those immediate goals so you can move to the next item. You use your time more wisely when you expend the most effort on jobs that are critical.
Prepare yourself mentally for your projects. It is not always easy to get yourself in the correct state of mind, but practice will do you good. Give yourself a time limit to work and do it.
When an accomplishment is met, reward yourself. For instance, don't run out for coffee if you haven't finished your first task yet. Don't forget to reward yourself, but don't do so prematurely.
Group errands together. Do not make separate trips to the supermarket, dry cleaner and post office. Try to schedule several stops into one trip to improve your efficiency. When getting your child from a game or something of the sort, leave a bit early to run other errands.
Try using the Pomdoro method. This method uses the rule of 25/5. You work for 25 minutes, then rest for 5 minutes. This helps you to feel more relaxed. This helps you get high quality work done quickly, but also leaves room for other things in your life.
Learning to manage your time better allows you to feel less enslaved by your schedule. Simply review the tips listed here, and you are certain to feel some instant improvements in your life. Use proper time management and watch the stress in your life decrease.

When you're deciding on new vinyl siding vs painting your house, it can be stressful and overwhelming. Questions like, 'What are the different types of siding for a house?', 'What is the most expensive siding?', 'What is the most durable siding?', and 'What type of siding lasts the longest?' swirl in your mind while you scramble to find the best price on the best material to protect your home. Luckily, most siding options last at least 15 years with minimal maintenance as opposed to painting, which only lasts 1-2 years before needing reapplication.
What is the Best House Siding Material?
The ideal house siding material for your home will depend on your specific needs. Wood siding offers unbeatable aesthetics but requires more maintenance than most. Vinyl siding is inexpensive and easy to maintain but can crack and warp over the years. Metal siding is durable and long-lasting but can rust and bend, causing separation through time. A siding professional can help you find the perfect siding for your home.
Vinyl siding is by far the most popular type of house siding today and offers affordable protection for your home. This siding can protect your home from weather and wind without rusting and resists peeling, denting, and separating. Vinyl siding is also available in multiple styles and colors so you are sure to find the perfect look for you.
The most traditional option available, wood siding is available in multiple looks and styles, and offers unbeatable energy savings. The natural ability of this material to protect against weather, wind, and impacts make wood a great choice for siding. However, moist environments can lead to warping, mold, and other types of early degeneration.
Metal siding provides lasting protection with minimal maintenance requirements. This material protects against water, wind, and UV rays and can lower your energy costs substantially. In fact, when paired with an energy saving system like a Lennox heater, you could save up to 30 percent on annual energy costs. Metal siding, however, is susceptible to rust and denting that can lead to further issues like leaks and heating and cooling loss.
Concrete and Brick
Concrete and Brick
Quickly gaining popularity, concrete and brick siding offers unbeatable protection from weather, wind, impacts, and just about any other type of hazard your home can experience. These materials are heavier than others, though, and may require reinforcement before installation. These materials are also the priciest house siding materials available.
When to Replace House Siding
No matter what type of siding you choose, eventually, it will need to be replaced. But, how do you know when your siding needs to be repaired and when to replace it? Small siding damage can typically be repaired by a professional. These damages can include problems like:
Peeling or Cracking: If your siding has cracked or peeling panels, these sections can usually be replaced to restore the look and protection of your siding.
Warping: Warped siding panels will begin to bend, causing separation that can lead to leaks, animal intrusion, and other problems. Prompt repair of the warped section is crucial to prevent more costly problems.
Dents: Metal siding can become dented or bent over the years which can cause holes and gaps in your siding. An expert can easily replace your bent or dented panels to reinforce your siding's strength and restore its appeal.
Fading: Many homeowners ask, "Can house siding be painted when it begins to fade?"
Metal and wood siding can definitely be painted to suit. However, materials like vinyl cannot be painted. It's important to decide whether you may want to change the color of your siding in the future when selecting a material option.
As time goes by, even the most durable material wears out and needs to be replaced. Although some signs that your siding should be replaced are difficult to see, most are easily detectable. When you see indicators that your Dallas, TX house siding needs to be replaced, call the Mullins General Construction team to help.
Severe Fading: While siding can be known to fade slightly, severe fading and discoloration can be an indicator that it's time for a replacement.
Widespread Warping: Warped siding material is a sign of moisture damage. It can also be an indicator that the house wrap, which is what goes under house siding, is damaged which can quickly lead to leaks, infestations, and lost energy.
Mold, Mildew, and Rot: Small areas of mold and mildew can typically be treated when caught early. However, extensive mildew or mold can be a sign of rot which means that your siding needs to be replaced. Rot can spread from your siding to your structure, so elimination is imperative.
Whether you are considering new siding for your Dallas, TX home or your current siding needs to be replaced, the Mullins General Construction experts are here to help. We provide advice and guidance every step of the way to ensure your complete satisfaction and home siding that lasts for years. Call us today at (972) 535-8065 to learn more about your siding options and which style is best for your home.

Hummingbird, Google's latest change to how it handles search queries
Here's what this change means to you and your business. 'Google Hummingbird' is a good analogy for how this new search change actually works. If you have seen a Hummingbird while feeding it darts with hyper speed precision from flower to flower; much the same way – Google grabs relevant snippets of information from online digital assets (web pages, graphics, video and PDF files) and compares in real-time against the search query. Also see: Optimizing You Tube videos, Optimizing PDF files.
We wanted to see if there were any differences between voice search and typed searches.
1) First we did a voice to text entry comparison over Google to compare. Using 'speech search' over my phone I asked the following question. How do I determine the best phone system for my small business?
Over mobile (adverts excluded) we found the following top 10 results:
– The programming butler
– Cisco
– Ask.com (reviews)
– Amazon.com (products)
– Amazon.com (reviews)
– Verizon (products)
– You Tube ( a posting from St. Louis 2013)
– You Tube ( a posting from Private Owner 2011)
– You Tube ( a posting from Local Business 2011)
– Operationstech.about (advice)
2) Next we tried the same phrase in Google using a desktop and got the 'exact same results'.
The common thread between both these search tests were the following words in no particular order:

This means that Google has found 'all words" or 'combinations of the search words' used in the top most level of displayed web pages, then secondary pages are examined for similar or same information; then internal and external links are examined for the same relevancy.
Hummingbird's Impact
Businesses who depend on well placed search results to drive growth and profit can breathe a sigh of relief if they have followed the 'quality content model' in managing their website(s). From the bird's eye view this means; 'Do what you say, say who you are and say it well'. Business owners who followed the 'linking model' a.k.a. back-linking, will experience a drop-off in their search results. There is nothing wrong with growing your links if you have quality content to share. Content must come first… then the links will come naturally.
Google has made many search changes over the past 8 years. Since 2005 there have been huge changes in the Google search engine algorithms; each one given colorful names; Florida update, Jagger update, Penguin update, Panda update and now 'Hummingbird. And sandwiched in between these updates were other Google product releases for online search to include; Google Places, Google Business, Google+ and Google pages.
The Google Constant
In spite of all the algorithm changes since 2005 the one constant that has not changed and will never change is quality content. Quality content are the words we use, how we express our ideas and concepts, how we communicate our thoughts, services and expertise. While most of us regret not paying closer attention in English 101, it's still not to late to SEO your website. Find a reputable web design company with the resources to help you develop compelling content.
If you already have a great website, then look for local writing resources by searching; Web content writers, public relations or search engine content developers. Soon your business will be moving as fast as a Hummingbird too!

Wednesday afternoon New York Yankees starting catcher Gary Sanchez threw from 60 feet for the first time since sustaining a Grade 1 biceps strain against the Baltimore Orioles 10 days ago.
Assuming there are no setbacks, Sanchez is hoping to return to action early-to-mid May. If his throwing sessions go according to plan, Sanchez will be cleared to hit and then eventually begin a minor league rehabilitation assignment.

There are a number of Physical Therapy treatments that can help with pain, stiffness, and other issues. Dr. Robert Moses, a chiropractor at Capital Chiropractic & Wellness Center in Rockville, MD, is experienced with these treatments and is ready to help.
Physical therapy is a treatment path for injury or physical issues that involves only natural solutions rather than medication or surgical intervention. Like chiropractic, physical therapy focuses on helping the body to heal itself using its innate healing abilities. Physical therapy has two main goals: Relieving the pain and helping the patient regain full use of the affected body part again. Physical therapy and chiropractic care combine particularly well because they have similar goals and can be done at the same time. By combining physical therapy treatments and chiropractic care, the patient can get the fastest pain relief and the quickest return to full function.
The physical therapy treatments used will depend on the patient and their specific condition. Most people benefit from a combination of treatments, including options like ultrasound therapy, moist heat therapy, cryotherapy (cold therapy,) and electrical muscle stimulation therapy. Many patients will have several of these treatments during the course of an appointment at the chiropractic provider's office. The physical therapy treatments are not painful in any way. In fact, many people look forward to their physical therapy treatments and find them to be extremely relaxing. The chiropractic caregiver may also teach the patient some specific exercises as part of their physical therapy treatments. These exercises are targeted for the specific condition and are focused on making the injured area stronger and less susceptible to injury in the future. Patients can do these exercises in a few minutes a day at home, making it an easy part of their regular routine.
Physical therapy treatments are commonly done for the same period of time that chiropractic care is prescribed. Every patient is different, so the chiropractic care provider will discuss the length of care needed with each patient following their initial evaluation.
At Capital Chiropractic & Wellness Center, we accept the majority of health insurance plans. We also accept all workers' compensation as well as all auto insurances. Please call our office if you do not see yours listed.
"He shows that he really cares about the patients and goes out of his way to do whatever he can to help. Most importantly, he is really good at what he does."
"Dr. Moses has been my chiropractor for several years. He is simply excellent; he addresses my ailments in a straightforward way and does so in a personable manner."
"Dr. Moses has done wonders for me. He is very attentive and skilled. I have had chronic pain for over two years now. Finally, I have gotten some relief."
"Dr Moses is an excellent chiropractor. He provides a holistic approach to patient care focusing on more than just the injured body part that I was seeking care for."

Chances are you've seen more than a couple of very little people sporting casts on their chubby arms or legs — after all, broken bones in children under six is one of the most common kid injuries, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). The good news: Because a baby's or toddler's bones are more flexible than an adult's, they actually don't break as easily (they tend to bend or buckle instead). Small-fries also heal much more quickly than grown-ups, which means they'll be up and running (or crawling or cruising) before you know it. Read on to learn what else you should know about broken bones in children.
How babies and toddlers fracture bones
Let's say you're a curious cutie who's just getting used to getting around on those little legs, or perhaps you're the type of tyke who can't resist clambering onto counters or jumping on the bed. Guess what? You're probably going to fall — a lot. So it's no surprise, then, that accidents are the most common reason for toddler fractures. Even babies who aren't so mobile can break bones when they fall off a high spot, like a changing table or your bed. If your tot ends up with a fracture, try not to give in to the guilts. It's impossible to be everywhere at once (though that won't stop you from trying, Mama), and most broken bones in children aren't serious.
Signs and symptoms of broken bones in children
Sometimes it can be hard to tell if your baby or toddler has a fracture, particularly if you didn't hear a snap or there's no obvious bend in the limb. There are some pretty reliable signs to watch for, though:
- Swelling and bruising
- Severe pain, particularly in one spot
- Tenderness to the touch
- An inability — or unwillingness — to move the limb (Important note: A child may still have a fracture even if he can move the area.)
When to call the doctor
If you notice any of the above signs, call your pediatrician immediately. The doc will either ask you to bring your child in or send you straight to the emergency room. If you suspect your little one's head, neck, or back may be injured, or if the fracture is so severe that it's punctured the skin, don't attempt to move him. Call 911 instead.
More About Toddler Safety
How fractures in kids are treated
To help keep your little one's limb steady until you can get to the doctor's office or ER, make a homemade splint with rolled-up newspaper or magazine to protect the injury from unnecessary movement.
Don't give the child anything by mouth to drink or to relieve pain without first consulting the doctor. With older kids, though, you can use an cold pack or a cold towel, placed on the injury site, to decrease pain. Extreme cold can cause injury to the delicate skin of babies and toddlers, so do not use ice with children this young.
Once you reach the emergency room or doctor's office, the ER doctor or pediatrician will take an X-ray to confirm the type and location of the fracture. Because their bones are softer than adults, children tend to suffer different kinds of breaks:
- Greenstick fractures occur when the bone breaks only on one side, literally like a green twig on a tree.
- Torus fractures occur when the bone is buckled, twisted, and weakened, but not completely fractured.
- Bend fractures are a common injury in which the bone is bent but not broken.
- Growth-plate fractures affect the special plates at the ends of bones that regulate growth. These breaks are considered more serious — if they don't heal properly, future development could be affected. For this reason, tots are closely followed for up to 18 months after this kind of break.
- Toddler's fractures are a specific type of break in the shin bone, and they usually have a spiral pattern. They can be difficult to detect (there's no separation in the bone); so if your doctor suspects this, it will be treated anyway.
For minor fractures, children usually require a plaster or fiberglass cast until the bone has healed. If the break is more severe, the doctor may first need to realign the break, which is usually done under anesthesia. Only rarely do broken bones in children require surgery before the doctor applies a cast.
How to prevent broken bones in children
- Let your munchkin run and jump — both stimulate bone growth and make bones stronger. But do try to remove obstacles ahead of time and be vigilant about stunts or climbing equipment that might be beyond your critter's coordination level.
- Make sure your tot's getting plenty of calcium (found in dairy foods, of course, and also in leafy greens) and vitamin D (it's the D that gets the calcium into the bones). The AAP recommends that pediatricians assess children's calcium consumption at age 2 or 3. Most children can get the recommended amount of calcium by eating three servings a day of low-fat dairy products. The AAP also recommends all infants under one year of age have a minimum intake of 400 IU of vitamin D per day beginning soon after birth and 600 IU after age 1.If you're nursing an infant exclusively, or giving a combination of formula and breast milk, ask your doctor about a vitamin D supplement.
- Take time to childproof your home — put gates at the top and bottom of stairs and secure heavy, climbable pieces of furniture, like bookcases and dressers, to the wall so they don't topple over.
- Never use walkers — stationary exersaucers are much safer.
- Skip crib bumpers. Not only can they be a crib-safety risk, but as your baby grows, she might use them as a step to climb (and maybe fall) out of the crib.

Apple seems to be serious about offering products that benefit users on a real-time basis. In May 2018, SouthChinaMorningPost reported that Apple watch saved an old man from having a heart attack by alerting him of his heart rate. So, apart from tracking your health and pushing you to stay fit, a new report now suggests that future iPhone and Apple Watch models might protect you from harmful gases.
First spotted by PatentlyApple, the company has been granted a patent for sensors that can reportedly detect poisonous gasses, including carbon monoxide (CO). Apple could incorporate these type of sensors in its future iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch models. The sensors can also be leveraged in smart home and Internet of Things devices.
The cited source stated that Apple's patent claim #9 points to a "target gas consisting of at least one of ozone (O.sub.3), nitrogen dioxide (NO.sub.2), nitrogen monoxide (NO), sulfur dioxide (SO.sub.2), carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH.sub.4), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and wherein the components of a gas mixture other than the target gas comprises poisoning species including siloxanes, sulfates, phosphates and chlorides, and/or interfering species such as water vapor."
Watch: Apple Watch Series 4 First Look
Additionally, Apple filed for this patent in the year 2018, and as always, this is a just patent and there is no guaranty that this could be true. However, if by any chance this patent turns into a reality, this would probably be Apple's "greatest contribution to mankind" and great life-saving tech. Besides, carbon monoxide (CO) is a deadly gas, which can kill you in minutes due to its tasteless yet toxic state.

Perth - Australian paceman Ryan Harris is battling a sore knee, with reports on Thursday saying he was in doubt for the third Ashes Test against England.
The 34-year-old has been a crucial part of the attack that has fired Australia to a 2-0 lead over their arch-rivals, but he reported stiffness during the second Adelaide Test.
Channel Ten television said he was a doubt for the Perth Test starting on Friday, in which Australia can take an unbeatable 3-0 lead in the five-match series.
"Ryan Harris has had an ongoing knee issue throughout his career which we manage after each Test he plays," a Cricket Australia spokesman said.
He added that the Queensland quick, who has bowled 67.4 overs in this Ashes series, with eight wickets at 20.25, would train on Thursday.
If he does not recover, James Faulkner, who was 12th man in Brisbane and Adelaide, is a contender to come into the side, while Doug Bollinger and Nathan Coulter-Nile are on standby.

High-Dose Robotic SBRT in the Treatment of Localized Prostate Cancer
In a recent study titled "High-Dose Robotic Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Patients With Prostate Cancer, Preliminary Results in 26 Patients", published in the Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment journal, a team of researchers from the University of Messina, Italy, evaluated whether stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) could mimic high dose rate brachytherapy (HDR-BRT) dose fractionation in localized prostate cancer patients. Radiotherapy is an important treatment choice for patients who are diagnosed with localized prostate cancer, however an ideal treatment regimen for these subset of patients is yet to be determined. Patients with histologic diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma with Stage I-III disease, without previous radiation therapy treatment, prostate surgery, or chemotherapy and a prostate volume smaller than 90 cm3, enrolled in this trial. Patients were treated either with SBRT in monotherapy (CyberKnife System and fiducial tracking system) or in combination with a pre-external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) boost. The trial's primary

Today I have an article at Christianity Today and I'm kinda scared about it. Which is interesting because the working title was: Why I Am Afraid of American Christians.
To find out why, you'll have to read the article. But I'll give you a hint. I'm scared of some American Christians and it isn't because they wear funky kids' science toys on their heads.
The article looks at the current trends of using intentional purchases (fair trade coffee, etc) to fight injustice worldwide, from the perspective of someone (me) who has spent more than a decade living overseas, working toward development and human dignity in the Horn of Africa. It quotes my fantastic brother-in-law, who has worked to fight sex trafficking in Portland. And it challenges people to think deeper about our choices, to move beyond using our purchasing power and toward using our lives and getting involved with people in relationship, taking risks.
I'm afraid people will be offended or get mad. I am a people-pleaser and would like for everyone I ever interact with to be happy and to like what I do/say/give/whatever. But…well…there it is. I have a lot to learn, which I hope comes across in the essay and I look forward to learning from you because overwhelmingly, you challenge me to think better, to not be complacent, and you handle my messy process with grace.
I'd love for you to head over to the newly titled: "You Can't Buy Your Way to Social Justice: Why the activism of some fellow Americans scares me."and join the conversation.

Byron Nelson Quotes
Where's the first tee and what's the course record?
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
Do you know why Venturi said Nelson used to ask that question?
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
I'm intrigued, Eagle... what's the answer?
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
In the interest of journalism, let me say I can't put my hand on the book or interview where I read or saw this, to site the source. But I am not making this up.
Venturi had shifted from talking about what a great golfer Nelson was, to what a great person he was. Nelson's character. He and Nelson were playing exhibition matches. Sure, Nelson was great enough, he could probably set a new course record everywhere he played. That might feed HIS ego.
But apparently there was something more important to him. Nelson knew the local pro probably had the course record, and what that meant to him. Nelson did not want to shatter the record and offend him in his own backyard. Nelson was sensitive enough and cared more about someone else's feelings than his own ego. As Lag says...he showed good intentions,, this time not in his swing, but by checking things out, and showing respect for someone else. It says a lot about Nelson, and is a good example to me of why golf is such a great sport, with a rich heritage of people like that.....famous , not famous, and in between. I'm sure we have all seen it, been inspired by it, and tried to copy it. Only this is easier to copy than a great swing.
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
Eagle...that's a great story and a great example of the regard Byron was held in and his deep thinking and respect for everyone he came across in his travels-
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
I don't want to get all soppy, but that's just a beautiful story.... it actually made me choke up a little.. what an incredible gesture and sense of awareness..
Thanks for sharing that
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
me too...
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
I was looking for a Byron Nelson quote about legs but I couldn't find it. In my searching I came across this one that just cracked me up....
"Putting affects the nerves more than anything. I would actually get nauseated over three-footers."
-Byron Nelson
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
Hogan would just show up, shoot the course record, and make sure the pro was carrying his equipment and copies of 5 Lessons. Then he would ask the pro what time he gets to the golf course and suggest he could arrive an hour and a half earlier and have hit 300 balls before the starter arrived.
Re: Byron Nelson Quotes
Excerpt from The Hershey Hurricane:
"The tournament came and went, and Pic's putter cooperated
properly with his eyes. He struggled mightily off the tee,
though, and wound up finishing in a disappointing twelfth place.
Lloyd Mangrum, known as "Mr. Icicle," won his only U.S. Open
in brilliant fashion, beating Byron Nelson and Vic Ghezzi in a
thirty-six-hole Monday playoff. Nelson actually had a chance to
win the tournament, but three bogies on the final holes forced
him into a tie with Ghezzi and Mangrum. Too, Nelson's caddie
accidentally kicked his ball in the third round of this National
Open, and his player was assessed a one-stroke penalty for the
mishap. Nelson told the looper after the fact that "It's all
right, son. I was a caddie once myself. It could have happened
to me." Byron Nelson had a lot of class. "
Yours in golf,

Zentangle Twinchie
The background was cut from a piece of leftover watercolour using Tombow markers, water & salt . I can't part with any of the leftovers. I doodled a flower and then drew some Zentangle to fill it in and doodled the sentiment. I used a 005 pigment pen as the image is quite small. I layered the watercolour paper onto the black mat to give it a frame.
Below I show the measurement in Metric. Twinchies are a 2 inch or 5 centimetre square. It's SMALL ! One of my blogger friends tells me there are Inchies...oh my, that would be even more challenging.
I still intend to get back to creating cards and will be back soon. Thanks for your visits and kind comments, they are appreciated.

- Darnell said...
Well, now, talk about inspiring. I don't think I dare try the Zentangle because it feels intuitively like something that would suck me in, mentally, like literally. (Which probably makes no sense to anyone but me!) But this little twinchie/inchie thing does look intriguing. On the other hand, it must be really hard to hold it down and do such intricate work. And I do have that tremor ... In any case, yours is really, really beautiful!
P.S. Thanks for your birthday wishes!!

Indigestion pills, known as antacids or proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), are killing 4 per cent of people who regularly take them.
PPIsŚwhich include Prilosec (omeprazole) and Prevacid (lansoprazole)Ścause health problems such as circulation disorders and infectious and parasitic diseases that can eventually kill. PPIs are causing 45.20 'excess deaths' from every 1,000 people who take them, researchers estimate.
Earlier research has found that PPIs also cause cardiovascular disease, acute kidney injury, dementia, gastric cancer, C. difficile infections and osteoporosis.

It's safe to say that we're now living in the 3D era. From printers, televisions, and even pens, three-dimensional objects are being created in greater detail and efficiency, and are being utilized in more innovative ways than ever before. For commercial interiors, creating a design with a three-dimensional
look has never been easier, thanks to the flexibility and character of laminates.
The trend toward textures and geometries that can not only be perceived
by the eye but also experienced by the hand continues to grow as designers
seek to create spaces that complement interior architecture with greater visual
impact. With ever-increasing realism, vacuum-formed 3D panel products, in

The soldiers, belonging to the Givati infantry brigade, returned to their posts after their battalion commander spoke to them about the gravity of their actions.
The Givati soldiers "returned to carry out their assignments," an IDF statement said late Saturday.

Absolutely disgusting story from NZ Herald – giving that sexual pervert a voice!!!!! Those women who weren't believed will be devastated FOREVER, I know what its like to have your rapist found not guilty – our juries are full of people obsessed with powerful people and who hate abused women and children.
Its interesting I am 55 yrs old and never ever been called up for Jury Duty yet I don't work and am intelligent. Yet juries I have seen are mostly BOOMERS and people who look low IQ. I think the behaviour of juries towards abuse victims in New Zealand proves just how disturbed this country is – this culture is. From the jury to ACC care – I would imagine the people defending rapists and sexual perverts have either done it themselves in the past or have someone they care about who has done it.

"So do I" and "neither do I" are a form of response not easily understood by learners of English and they are usually replaced with a shorter, more common, and more informal answer "me too".
Use "so do I" or "neither do I" (or their alternatives) to say that you have something in common with somebody. (I am a teacher. So am I. Don't say: "So I am.")
So/neither + Auxiliary + Subject
So/neither + Auxiliary (from the start-up sentence; if there's no auxiliary, just a normal, lexical verb, use "do/did") + Person (can be any, not only "I")
"So" is used in a positive sentence and "neither" is used in a negative sentence (take a look at the examples below).
The auxiliary verb needs to agree with the verb tens in the original statement. The auxiliary you use in your response depends on the tense used in the sentence you are responding to. Take a look at the second example; "I went to the cinema last Sunday." – Past Tense. The auxiliary in your response has to be in Past Tense as well ("So did I").
I love English.
So do I.
I love English too.
I went to the cinema last Sunday.
So did I.
I went to the cinema too.
I am not American.
Neither am I. ("Not me either"/"Me neither" is more informal and much more common)
I can't fly.
Neither can I. ("Not me either"/"Me neither" is more informal and much more common)
I have been to Vietnam.
So have I. (or "Me, too" is used very often in this situation)
I wouldn't like to go to there.
Neither would I. ("Not me either/Me neither" is more informal and much more common)

Reader reaction to Apple's decision to scrap the British version of its Mac operating system (see "Apple defends UK Mac OS 9 chop") has been vociferous - and generally 'unfavourable', I mean 'unfavorable'.
Despite, Apple's claims that the move would mean faster operating-system and hardware introductions and allow easier software updating, Macworld Online readers are demanding the return of the British-English version of Mac OS 9 and the exile of the hated US-centric "International-English" version.
Even Windows speaks English
Apple UK polled "a large group" of British users and found them more concerned with localized paper sizes and Date-&-Time issues than with "the odd spelling incongruity".
They never asked me! And I sell Macs to home users!
This is suicide. Even Windows is UK localized. This is yet another hurdle to overcome trying to compete against the like of Time and Tiny Computers.
Apple UK is living in dreamland if it thinks it can get away with this, especially after the Apple Expo fiasco.
- Gary
Mind boggling
I am aggravated beyond belief at Apple's constant undermining of its loyal customer base in the British Isles. If Apple wants to cut costs then let it sell the US-phonetic English version to the non-native English speakers and leave the native British-English version alone. Pretending that the US-based, phonetic 'International-English' is another language yet again just boggles the mind!
Apple could save even more money - and aggravation - by not selling to Britain at all. That would mean an excuse to not having "International" English either. Pronounced 'eye-thur'! It need sell only the US-phonetic English. Massive savings all round.
Just a shame that another language bites historic dust due to a personal inability to learn the 'Mother' language. I hope I am being grammatically incorrect enough!
Best wishes to fellow English speaking dinosaurs.
- David W Gameson
My dear, what's on?
I've just read your article about the "non-British" Mac OS 9. I personally don't think it's that big a deal - the issue of spellings is annoying rather than fundamentally disturbing. But, something that wasn't mentioned in the article, and which I think IS a big issue, is what happened to Sherlock.
Mac OS 8.6 is stuffed full of UK search sites for Sherlock; Sherlock 2 in Mac OS 9 has none whatsoever. Bearing in mind that Sherlock is supposed to be the keystone of Apple's approach to the brave new world of hyperspace, I find this omission extremely disturbing.
Apple also seems to be suffering from a form of rampant institutionalized arrogance - why didn't they tell us what they were planning to do? Seems like we've just got to take what we're given regardless of what we think about it.
It all smacks of a hurried, bodged, cost-saving measure.
- Bill Murray, Livingston, Scotland
Bin men
Following recent events (Apple Expo, lack of UK version of OS 9, changes to G4s, etc.) I can only presume that Steve Jobs intends to close the folder named 'UK Mac users', drag it to the newly named Wheelie Bin and dump the lot of us!!!!
- Justin Spain
Canadian garbage
We English-speaking Canadians have been favoured with the unmodified US version of the Mac OS for years now.
Not being the centre (surely you mean 'center'? - ed) of the universe, our American (by the way, America does NOT include Canada!) version does not include Canadian spelling (which is quite similar to the British), and also comes with the wrong date format (US month/day/year, rather than Canadian/British day/month/year).
Finally, Canadians refer to the "alley-way icon" not as a Trash can but as a Garbage can (your Bins, I believe).
- Mark Hume, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Mac education trashed
For nearly 10 years now, I've been trying to tell anyone who'd listen how much better the Mac is than the PC. I know I'm not alone - the same applies to almost every Mac user I've ever met. A remarkable situation, in view of Apple's continual practice of attempting to build a barrier between itself and what must be just about the most evangelical, loyal bunch of customers any corporation could wish for in its wildest dreams.
During that time, and despite the lack of any real customer care - apart from slick PR and corporate affairs exercises - I must have purchased about £350,000 of Mac equipment for myself and my staff.
Well, I have to say that the presentation of OS 9 to the British market is just about the last straw - 'trash' instead of 'wastebasket' (along with a host of other US spellings), an AppleWorks updater that only works on US versions, a StuffIt Expander that doesn't work at all. Presumably, Apple have abandoned the educational market - along with Europe's Apple Expo exhibition - because no English teacher is going to let his kids pick-up transatlantic spelling from this OS.
Whatever you think Windows, Bill Gates does at least provide an alternative. I, for one, am getting tired of paddling upstream - I'd keep doing it, too, if only I wasn't getting punched in the face by Apple at the same time.
I'm sitting typing this on a new G3/450, and I'm astounded and deeply saddened to realize that this latest piece of cost-accounting nonsense (because that's what it is) is making me think quite seriously of binning the whole lot and buying a Windows machine.
However strong your belief, there comes a point where you simply have to vote with your feet and walk quietly away.
- Chris. A Ferne
Opportunity (not) knocks
Apple's scrapping of British-English in favour of International-English is an opportunity as much as it is a problem. I bet that some enterprising programmer will produce an extension or some sort of customization to give users the choice of British or International.
- Spec Bowers

Green Book is a very charming, humorous film that brings to life a wonderful friendship. In the months since the film debuted on the festival circuit, its been criticized in a number of fashions for its somewhat simplistic themes and message, and while there's some truth to that, I think there's value in a film like this. The message is universal and its a film that appeals to all ages with its beautiful story, and the humanity and humor of the story comes from its wonderful characters.
Based on a true story, the film follows Tony Vallelonga (Viggo Mortensen), a working class Italian-American man who's hired as a driver for Dr. Donald Shirley (Mahershala Ali), a black piano player going on tour in the deep south. Yes, the story goes in a direction that may be familiar, but Mortensen and Ali are so goddamn charming that the story is irresistible. Mortensen nails the eccentric, physical comedy required to play the bumbling jokester, and Ali plays the perfect straight man who's also there to deliver the emotional punch.
The structure of the film is effective, as we track the progress of the characters over the course of their tour, and the film sets up a key moment that develops one of the two at each stop along the way. These are either genuinely charming emotional beats or just gags, but either way the film sucks you in. I also love the brief appearances of Tony's wife, played by Linda Cardellini; it may be a fairly straightforward role, but it makes Tony a more personable character other than just being a goofy oaf.
I think Green Book works because of how universal its story is, and while the phrase "crowd pleaser" may be overused, this is the type of film that makes you want to stand up and cheer. Watching these two characters learn from each other is the type of old-fashioned story that we go to the movies for, and I can't deny that I left the theater overjoyed by the charms of its Christmas conclusion. Grade: A

The Nexus Q is the first ever social streaming media player. It was announced at the 2012 Google I/O conference on June 27, 2012. The device is in the form of a black sphere. The top part is able to turn, which controls the volume. A ring circles around the ball, and lights up different colors in time with the music. Google removed the device from the Google Play Store very soon after adding it. It has not yet been added again.
This device allows you to use the Google Play and YouTube apps on your Android device to instantly stream content to the Nexus Q. You can stream movies, songs, YouTube videos and more. The Nexus Q will then play it on the TV. Plus if you turn on the guest mode everyone in your house can choose what to listen to or watch, as long as they have an Android device. If they prefer their own content, however, they are able to simply turn it off.

Hey! I hope all is well 👍😁 Today I'm uploading a pic I drew of Aizawa Shouta a.k.a eraserhead that I drew last night. I drew this because I enjoyed looking at the reference piece so much. It's one of those artworks that just stands out to you and catches your eye. Well, this caught mines and 24 hours later I'm uploading what I drew lol. Aizawa reminds me in many ways of Kakashi from naruto. Their demeanors are strikingly similar and so are their teaching methods. They both push they're students hard and are very talented themselves. Anywho, let me know what you think about the artwork 🙂

Still you face the same problem, Reset Network Settings via Settings ->General ->Reset ->Reset network settings.
Solution 3: Restart iOS device & Router
- Press and hold the Sleep button and Home button together until Apple logo appears.
- Also try to reset your WiFi router.

The Central Government's 2011 National Transport Development Policy Committee (NTDPC) report states that parking is not a right but a privilege. A user must pay the full cost of the parking facility based on the land opportunity cost, capital cost, O&M costs and temporal demand. However, this is something that many car owners in India don't understand.
Rise in income, increase in vehicular demand and the aspirational value attached to owing a car has lead to a shortage of parking spaces. In a country like India, where it took 60 years to acquire 100 million vehicles but added another 100 million in just the next ten years, free parking has become both a serious urban planning and public health issue. Lack of parking spaces and the ever-increasing traffic jams are mainly due to haphazard parkings, which is the result of not putting a price on using up public space. One must realise that just as we pay taxes on fuel and vehicles, the state is not obliged to offer a free parking on public roads, as vehicles are private goods and not public.
According to experts when vehicles are parked on public roads, it is simply an act of privatising public space. When the government provides parking for free, it is actually subsidising the storage of private goods. But since vehicles need to be driven around to be productive, the government may oblige their owners by providing storage spaces at the right price. Gradually, the paid parking policy should be applied to all major roads, for paid parking is the best way to tackle the problem of haphazard parking. In a paid parking regime, people will have to either park at designated spaces or make different commuting choices, experts added.
Kshitij Batra and Rohan Shridhar, Policy Researchers, IDFC Institute, Mumbai further mention, "Many Indian cities require developers to build a car park for each apartment, regardless of whether the occupant can afford a car or if the building is situated near a mass transit system. The current master plan for Delhi (2021) stipulates a minimum of two parking slots per 100 sq m of residential construction for housing across the city and three for commercial areas. The National Building Code, 2016 also recommends two parking spaces per 100 sq m of residential group and the cluster housing constructed across the country. Through such rules, municipalities are essentially pricing out families relying on public transport from cities. Even investments in public transportation cannot fully undo the negative effects of these rules."
In the National Transport Development Policy Committee (NTDPC) report, published by the Union Ministry of Urban Development in 2011, similar suggestions against free or low-cost parking are made. The following are some of the salient points:
1) All parking should be off-street. There should be no conflict between motorised vehicles and those who want to walk or bicycle. Walking and using a bicycle should become the favoured and most common mode of urban transport.
2) The National Urban Transport Policy has advocated the levying of high parking fee that represents the value of land occupied and to allocate parking space to public transport and non-motorised transport on priority.
3) Private vehicles must be parked on a fully-paid, rented or owned space. Proof of the same must be furnished before registering a private vehicle.
4) Parking management is to be used as a demand management tool to decrease theuse of private vehicles and thus, reduce the overall demand for parking, and shift travel to public transport, para-transport and non-motorised modes.
Many studies have proven that reduction in traffic congestion and limiting the dependency on private vehicles will be observed if only charging on street parking on major roads in a transparent manner is implemented and using the generated revenue to better design and manage the roads.
