VINSE visits Pleasant View Elementary
On October 16 2012, TN-Score student Toshia Wrenn lead an outreach to teach 20 fourth grade students about cells and their organelles at Pleasant View Elementary in Cheatham County. The students discussed the differences between plant and animal cells and described the organelles that each of these cells contain. To reinforce what they had learned, students made edible "cells" by selecting the food items that had similar properties as the organelles and affixing them to their cookie cell using frosting as the cytoplasm.

By default, each worker in a cluster working on the same job has a unique random number stream. This example uses two workers in a parallel pool to show they generate unique random number sequences.
p = parpool(2); spmd R = rand(1,4); % Different on each worker end R{1},R{2}
0.3246 0.6618 0.6349 0.6497 0.2646 0.0968 0.5052 0.4866
If you need all workers to generate the same sequence of numbers, you can seed their generators all the same.
p = parpool(2); spmd s = RandStream('twister'); % Default seed 0. RandStream.setGlobalStream(s); R = rand(1,4); % Same on all workers end R{1},R{2}
0.8147 0.9058 0.1270 0.9134 0.8147 0.9058 0.1270 0.9134
Note Because rng('shuffle') seeds the random number generator based on the current time, you should not use this command to set the random number stream on different workers if you want to assure independent streams. This is especially true when the command is sent to multiple workers simultaneously, such as inside a parfor, spmd, or a communicating job. For independent streams on the workers, use the default behavior; or if that is not sufficient for your needs, consider using a unique substream on each worker.
By default, the MATLAB® client and MATLAB workers use different random number generators, even if the workers are part of a local cluster on the same machine with the client. For the client, the default is the Mersenne Twister generator ('twister'), and for the workers the default is the Combined Multiple Recursive generator ('CombRecursive' or 'mrg32k3a'). If it is necessary to generate the same stream of numbers in the client and workers, you can set one to match the other.
For example, you might run a script as a batch job on a worker, and need the same generator or sequence as the client. Suppose you start with a script file named randScript1.m that contains the line:
R = rand(1,4);
You can run this script in the client, and then as a batch job on a worker. Notice that the default generated random number sequences in the results are different.
randScript1; % In client
parallel.defaultClusterProfile('local') c = parcluster(); j = batch(c,'randScript1'); % On worker wait(j);load(j); R
For identical results, you can set the client and worker to use the same generator and seed. Here the file randScript2.m contains the following code:
s = RandStream('CombRecursive','Seed',1); RandStream.setGlobalStream(s); R = rand(1,4);
Now, run the new script in the client and on a worker:
randScript2; % In client
j = batch(c,'randScript2'); % On worker wait(j); load(j); R
By default MATLAB clients use different random generators than code running on a GPU. GPUs are more like workers in this regard, and use the Combined Multiple Recursive generator ('CombRecursive' or 'mrg32k3a') unless otherwise specified.
This example shows a default generation of random numbers comparing CPU and GPU in a fresh session.
Rc = rand(1,4)
Rc = 0.8147 0.9058 0.1270 0.9134
Rg = rand(1,4,'gpuArray')
Rg = 0.7270 0.4522 0.9387 0.2360
Be aware that the GPU supports only three generators ('CombRecursive', 'Philox4x32-10', and 'Threefry4x64-20'). The following table lists the algorithms for these generators and their properties.
|Multiple Stream and Substream Support
|Approximate Period In Full Precision
|'CombRecursive' or 'mrg32k3a'
|Combined multiple recursive generator
|Philox 4x32 generator with 10 rounds
|Threefry 4x64 generator with 20 rounds
None of these is the default client generator for the CPU. To generate the same sequence on CPU and GPU, you must use the only generator supported by both: 'CombRecursive'.
sc = RandStream('CombRecursive','Seed',1); RandStream.setGlobalStream(sc); Rc = rand(1,4)
Rc = 0.4957 0.2243 0.2073 0.6823
sg = parallel.gpu.RandStream('CombRecursive','Seed',1); parallel.gpu.RandStream.setGlobalStream(sg); Rg = rand(1,4,'gpuArray')
Rg = 0.4957 0.2243 0.2073 0.6823
For normally distributed random numbers created by randn, CPU code by default uses a random stream with a NormalTransform setting of Ziggurat, while GPU code uses a setting of Inversion. You can set CPU and GPU generators the same to get the same randn sequence. The GPU supports only Inversion, so set the CPU to match:
sc = RandStream('CombRecursive','NormalTransform','Inversion','Seed',1); RandStream.setGlobalStream(sc) sg = parallel.gpu.RandStream('CombRecursive','NormalTransform','Inversion','Seed',1); parallel.gpu.RandStream.setGlobalStream(sg); Rc = randn(1,4)
Rc = -0.0108 -0.7577 -0.8159 0.4742
Rg = randn(1,4,'gpuArray')
Rg = -0.0108 -0.7577 -0.8159 0.4742
Code running on a worker's CPU uses the same generator to create random numbers as code running on a worker's GPU, but they do not share the same stream. You can use a common seed to generate the same sequence of numbers, as shown in this example, where each worker creates the same sequence on GPU and CPU, but different from the sequence on the other worker.
p = parpool(2); spmd sc = RandStream('CombRecursive','Seed',labindex); RandStream.setGlobalStream(sc); Rc = rand(1,4) sg = parallel.gpu.RandStream('CombRecursive','Seed',labindex); parallel.gpu.RandStream.setGlobalStream(sg); Rg = rand(1,4,'gpuArray') end delete(p)
For normally distributed random numbers from randn, by default a worker CPU uses a NormalTransform setting of Ziggurat while a worker GPU uses a setting of Inversion. You can set them both to use Inversion if you need the same sequence from CPU and GPU.

How can a team that's so disciplined, be so undisciplined?
They're colder than my ex-wife.
The Kings lead the league in penalties… and stupidity.
They're Lara Flynn Boyle anemic on the power play.
The Kings have won just 4 times in their last 12 games and are now 1-8-1 on the road.
There needs to be change, and I'm not talking about shitty deals involving AHL players or the shuttle to Manchester.
Let's see what Schultz can do because Willie Mitchell thinks he's Denis Gauthier and because I want to make Colonel Klink jokes.
Where the fuck was Toffoli tonight? The press Box? While Clifford was skating for a whopping 7 minutes?
Enough of Frattin already. Seriously. Enough. I mean it. Stop. Please. No More. I'll give away secrets.
Lewis is dreadfully useless. Kind of like Barnes & Nobles.
Can't blame this one on Matt Greene
The Kings were beaten by a COLOR tonight.
The suddenly "I don't want to be traded" Trevor Lewis had a semi-breakaway, but because he's Trevor Lewis, he didn't score, but the rebound from Dwight King to Anze Kopitar and the Kings shut those asshole fans up early.
Oh look! A Muzzin penalty! Let's add it to the now updated #MuzzKill (thanks Mr. Half) graphic, shall we? SEVEN STRAIGHT GAMES!!!!
It was nice to see the Kings back to not letting anyone score in the 1st period.
Penalty, penalty, penalty, penalty, penalty. Of COURSE the Kings have to have Dustin "I couldn't score for the Kings in 3 years" Penner tie the game.
I've come to the conclusion that Kyle Clifford is awful.
Mike Richards was reunited with his boyfriend Unfortunately they had "The Cooler" on their line.
Over/Under on Ducks fans being stabbed at Dodger Stadium Saturday – 2.5
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the only trade between the Kings and Ducks involve Sean O'Donnell?
If Vancouver is inviting Vinny Prospal for a tryout, why not bring Simon Gagne back? At least he can do what Kyle Clifford and Trevor Lewis CAN'T do… SCORE!
Lou Lamoriello would have fired Sutter games ago.
If I hear Lombardi say, "These guys haven't dealt with adversity. Let's see how they deal with it now that they're…" Oh, shut the fuck up and make a fucking trade already. WE CAN'T SCORE YOU IDIOT!
Crazy Bitch UPDATE
Matt you bitched about Gagne dissing us and now you want him BACK???
Fuck that. And fuck him too. And fuck the Ducks while I'm at it!
There was another Kings/Ducks trade. In 2008, the Kings traded surplus goaltender J.S. Aubin to the Ducks for a seventh round pic.
Although the Kings looked great in the first, they simply gave away the game and couldn't get anything going. I agree, SOMETHING needs to change, and NOW! The Ducks looked just OK, but the Kings, well…
You can't score when you have 2 guys below the goal line, one the half wall, and your 2 d at the point, no net presence
The ducks are trash, they will fizzle out in the playoffs. The team to beat is CHI.
I dont mind the dump and chase style of hockey but the Kings arent recoverimg all the pucks they dump in. Im sure the majority of our shots are coming from the blueline which is really frustrating because they arent high % shots.. FUUUUUUCK
Fire Sutter
I believe the first trade they ever made involved Lonnie Loach…could be wrong.
Where was Dustin Brown tonight? No hits was almost unnoticeable. Mike Richards hasn't thrown hit in 2014. Those 2 are playing like a bunch of pussies…we're back to square one with no left wing again.
Voynov has been a typical Russian hockey player, got his big contract and goes back to mediocrity, and even that's a stretch.
I could go on and on, but being I went up stairs and the first thing I told my wife is, they fucking suck suck again
I agree that you need to trade for scoring, but who do give up? I'm tired of hearing about the "right fit" type of players. You need scoring, plain and simple. Go get Moulson, Gaborik, Briere, or any other offensive player rumored to be available out there. If you feel the need for a stay at home defenseman, go get someone yourger than 30.
Fire Sutter
Briere is done. Moulson would be nice. Who knows??? Still, in Dean I trust.
The Kings have ZERO killer instinct. They were up 1-0 and had 2 power play chances to extend their lead and instead of scoring and putting some distance between them and the Ducks, they completely shit the bed and allow the ducks to stay in the game. This has been the Kings problem all season long. Instead of stepping on a teams throats they let other teams hang around and end up losing games that they should have won.
The best example from tonight of them not having a killer instinct is when there was about 3 or 4 minutes left in the game Trevor Lewis had the puck in the corner and a clear line to the front of the net for a jam play, but instead he skates the puck behind the net where he procedes to do jack shit with the puck. If he takes it to the front and nothing happens at least he took it to the front and tried to make something happen! Until this team grows some fucking balls and plays real fucking hockey they will continue to lose.
How you blast Muzzin game after game but not Stoll for taking untimely and stupid stupid stupid penalties is puzzling.
Once again he cost us tonight.
And please, no one tell me how great he is at face offs because clearly that doesn't win games. He is a whiney bitch who is always talking and never backs his shit up.
Do it again! Oh and spill the secrets!
I didn't understand the King/Kopitar/Lewis line, it made absolutely no sense to me. And why is Muzzin being rewarded with PP minutes when he's been taking the dumbest penalties for 7 straight games? Sutter needs to put Voynov out there with the top PP instead of the last 30 seconds with the second unit who can't even get out of the NZ.
Fire Payne, the Kings were better off with Kompmon.
Secrets? Stop holding out.
As GC mentioned in the last blog it doesn't matter even if we had Stamkos or Crosby. We cant score in the Sutter system…..period.
It feels like the old days, hope for this team wanes. There is an obvious issue with coaching and management. Watching the Duck's and Blue Jackets power plays, now that's the way the PP should be played. We continue to look lost on the PP with no real improvement shown. How do you call up two promising players, then send them back for two other players who don't play. WTF, knowlegeable fans can see that this team needs an infusion of better coaching decisions, get some help for scoring, quit playing players that just can't bring it, Muzzin.
I said it before but Sutter cost DL his job in San Jose because he wouldn't fire his friend. The team has tuned him out, Richards hates him, his coaching style rubs the team the wrong way & kills the offense. Sutter needs to go or ownership needs to fire DL. Kopi & Carter are carrying the offense on their shoulders. Williams & Brown on the 3rd line while Lewis & Frattin are taking up top 6 minutes? Are you fucking kidding me? Not only should they never be in the top six but I would've traded or waived a long time ago. Toffoli & Vey have been far more effective & should be playing. Clifford needs to be part of a deal to bring in a scorer. He & Frattin are two pieces that rebuilding teams can use as bridge/filler players along with picks. Also is I'm DL I'm on the phone offering up Muzzin + for Daley or another veteran dman. Hell the Blackhawks & Pittsburgh are looking help at center trade Lewis for a pick or prospect so Toffoli & Vey can play. They've earned their spot on the team, more so ice time over Clifford, Frattin, & Lewis.
Dave you make some great points that I have been thinking of as well. The only thing I would do differently is not trade Muzzin as I feel he can be a great all round D man some day, BUT he shouldn't be on the top pairing right now. He needs to earn that spot by cutting back on the penalties by better positioning and also cut back on his blocked shots. He needs to be insulated a bit on the third pairing with Mitchell.
How do we see all this and our management doesn't?
TSN saying that Rene Bourque is available, oh please god don't tell me this is going to be DL's cure for our scoring problems? This is something I could see him doing with the past experience with Sutter.
send Muzzin and Cifford and a pick to the oilers for David Perron
This was a great game to showcase some of the players we are looking at moving which probably explains the lineup oddities. Losing the way we did to Boston and then Lumbus whipping us, probably got some trade momentum moving and I imagine some deals are in the works after last night. If we are going to beat Chicago to get back to the Finals, we need to find some depth scoring AT LEAST.
The coaching (line choices) seems a bit too spastic right now. I don't like our power play, move the puck more and setup carter for a 1 timer just like they feed Ovi in Washington.
First time commenting and long time reader (every day). Thanks Matt! You crack me up My question is if the NHL is a "3-2 league" shouldn't our goal be to score 3 goals every game? How often does this team get 3 goals in a game? I'll leave it at that
Many comments on here are right on. Especially the Darren comment on how we all see things and Sutter and DL do not. This losing will be contagious soon. Stop it before its to late. The mastery of Sutter has hit rock bottom since the playoff loss to The Hawks last year. Then I was surprised the Kings were no.1 for 1 day on the TSN power rankings only to go into a shit hole a day later and eat it.
Sutter is slowly ruining the teams chemistry. The evaluation of play by the veterans is being tested as we speak. Which means, if you suck shit, you get less minutes or sent down or traded. How many more games does DL watch that he cant figure out what to do? Sutters lines are horrific, Richards hates his ass and doesn't give a shit no more. The Kings system needs to change. What I saw from Columbus the other night was awesome.
The Kings record doesn't represent the real Kings that play. Clifford, Muzzin, Lewis, Stoll, Green, Mitchell and even Brown have seen there days…. Frattin was a loser waste on the Bernier deal. King I can barely stand. We need new speed and puck control talent to play with the best players we have, and let the rest go on waivers or trade.
Sutter out. Paul Maurice woulda been good for the Kings.
DL get your fukn slow ass shit together, how much do you need to study??
Have a good day, cya at the Stadium series, where we all sold our souls for the tickets we got. Barry you there?
How can players develop chemistry when they play with different fucking guys every damn fucking game? Sutter says because they are supposed to play the system. Fine they can play the system but together on the same lines so they develop chemistry you dumb fuck Sutter!
Forget Dean trading for anyone. If Sutter just quit fucking around with the lines and just had them like this then…….
Martinez-Greene (or whoever is healthy besides Muzz) Schultz?
…..arguably one of the top lines in the NHL is back together. That line has chemistry. Richards is back with his boyfriend so that line should be potent as well. The third pairing of Pearson, Vey and Toffoli would excite me the most. That line could be lethal.
Muzzin should sit. Period. Put DD back with Mitchell to free Doughty up to be the offensive juggernaut we know he can be.
Problem solved.
The thing that we are not privy too is the economic side of deals. We can look at cap costs and see what matches up, but there is much more to all of this than just saying….phone the Sabres. tell them to send Moulson this way for what we are willing to give them.
I am sure that DL would be more than happy to make a deal, but he has to balance out what to give up from our current line up and the future line up for a return that is not guaranteed.
It would be easier if there was a couple of weeks of games against teams that absolutely suck that we could work on our game and get every line rolling. Even as brutal as the Flames, Oilers or Sabres are in the standings, they are still NHL teams with players that can compete.
Anyway, as much as I am impatient and don't want to wait for deals to be made. If we were to start a best of 7 series against almost all teams, I still think we would prevail. We may not get a jump on everyone, but we play such a heavy game that the Sharks, Ducks , Blues or Hawks would still be wary to play us.
For some reason I think we'll get Andrew Ladd. He would fit perfect with the Kings. We could use a D man too to pair with Doughty, not sure how we pull that off. You know DL is working the phones. Hope something happens soon.

Model Number: 00458713
The lightest and most efficient way to carry a bottle in-hand, Ultimate Direction Jurek Grip Handheld 20 oz is the result of collaboration with Scott Jurek. This ultralight handheld features a sweat-resistant adjustable handstrap and silicone stretch bands to hold the 20 oz Kicker Valve bottle in-place. When taking a sip, the Kicker Valve opens quickly with a simple bite and sip on the soft medical grade silicone valve that's easy on your teeth; when finished 'Kick' the valve to the side easily with your teeth and it automatically returns to the leakproof closed position.
Comments: I used this bottle during my most recent 100 Mile race, and I was very happy with how comfortable it was during the entire 15+ hours that I carried it. I do need to mention that I changed the bottle to one of my older Nathan 20 oz bottles, because I like the feel of the softer material, and I'm not a big fan of the indents in the UD bottles. I also prefer a traditional valve. The strap on this bottle is surprisingly comfortable given that it looks pretty narrow. It's great for use in races, and I've never really felt the need for a pouch in my water bottle carrier, so this was just perfect.
From: Tommy, Flushing, NY, USA. August 13th 2014
Comments: I have used Nathan, Amphipod, and now the UD Jurek Grip. The Grip is by far the best handheld I have used. Very minimal, as it is described, and carries easily in the hand. I never feel like I am squeezing the bottle while running. Drinking from the Kicker Valve takes some getting used to but it's not as bad as some make it out to be.
From: Nathan, Greenville, NC

10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

I find it very hard answering questions like describe yourself in 50 words or less
and what is your best quality?
there are other personal questions but I needed a break when I came to those 2. will give those a go tomoz.
I find it very hard to answer such direct personal questions believe it or not. I can talk about myself freely on here cos its my personal thoughts but have always found those kind of questions in real life situations difficult to answer.
its like the quintessential "so tell me about yourself?" I hate them. 15 months ago
happy for you! wishing you all the best! :) 15 months ago
this on fb earlier today:
"shes the girl that believes what comes around goes around. the one that hopes for a better day. the one that wont give up on you. shes the girl that's unlike the rest. the one that spent her days smiling, and her nights crying. she's the girl that would love to be loved. the one that looks so damn strong but feels so weak. shes the girl that picks herself up every time she falls…"
it certainly resonated with me. 15 months ago
decided I don't want to obsess bout anyone right now, esp as it all seems to be in my head.
I was walking home today and thinking I don't want to care aobut crushes and the like, I want to care aobut me, I need to put myself first cos I feel like im in a rough patch at the moment. so I cant love me let alone anyone else.
so im not gonna care. im gonna have a word with polish dude in a calm nice way and tell him that all the flirting and nonsense must stop we are gonna be friends in a nice way and im gonna forget about my obsession about Portuguese dude who maybe wrong for me anyay and anyone else that may come along. I will be friendly and chatty but I dotn want to obsess bout nothing and overthink anything anymore. there is nothing there and I need to get back to the happy me before I can let other people in. I want to enjoy life again and let the universe do its thing when it is ready and when im ready.
I also seem to fall for all the wrong guys anyway, wrong for me, I want someone to fall for me for a change in the right circumstances and it feels natural and right, it just happens by surprise.
surprise that seems to be my word lately. I want good suprises. happy suprises. a bit of serendipity. it all starts in me. and I have been neglecting me so much and putting others first. if I look after me, everything will fall into place when the time is right and im ready for it.
I walked home today thinking along these lines, and I remember thinking it felt so good to think like this. felt freeing. like I have a clean slate. the thought even put a smile on my face.
if I ever fall in love again, I want it to be with a kindred spirit and I don't think anyone I crush over has been that. I kind of want a good guy, a nice guy, some morals and respect, and not someone who only thinks of themselves.im not very good at dating it seems. even my long term relationships in the past were questionable. they weren't bad people but not right for me. but first I need to get myself better again. I deserve a good guy.
so yeah its time to sit back relax and rediscover me and look after me and forget aobut this stuff.
if someone comes along and is kind and friendly and interested I will get to know them and come what may but until then its time for me to work on me. its very much needed. 15 months ago
for sharing this information with me. I will check out the site. I might consider trying it. I have had food issues over the last 5 years or so going from binge addiction to health freak this year and I seem to have come full circle again. so now I am ready to be healthy again. so I will definitely look at this. I don't know that it is something I will do permanently but I like the idea of clean wholesome foods and cooking from scratch. I also have a dependency on sweetners etc so I definatley want to eliminate that. I don't know that I could elimate dairy and grains permanently but I may try to the challenge to detox and see how I get on. and then re-introduce them. it does seem hard tho, without being able to eat grains and dairy I will admit. I know I am happy when I eat healthier but I don't want to be obsessive either. I will definitely be doing some research. maybe even buy the book.
I want it to be natural and easy not a diet, not a strict regime where I feel deprived. thanks again. nothing tastes as good as healthy unprocessed good food. I will allow for the occasional treat probably as I am human but it will be just that. a treat.
ty for sharing. 15 months ago
u have to hit rock bottom before you have to claw yourself back again.
I feel like I have been rockbottom with this goal for this past month. its still been difficult. im not where I want to be, im where I used to be. a place I thought I left for ever. but today. tonight, ive finally had enough, and getting all my demons out my system. I don't like how not being healthy looks and feels. how it takes a toll on me physically, mentally emotionally. laziness, bad eating and I even started smoking again but on a very small scale in that regard. regarding smoking, I do not enjoy it and I don't want that. its like I felt like I had a free pass to just go nuts on these thigns cos im alone, folks are on holiday, no one will know but I know, and I feel, and it hurts me. and I hate it. I hate these feelings. that old me cant come back I wont let it.
it is shocking how much weight I put on this month, I looked in the mirror and I can see my face is fuller I feel bloated and I look like im pregnant (im not) I don't like what I see at all. all that in a month.
its like something snapped and I just said I don't care I want to just be and not obsess over health and fitness. but I could never find balance. ive always been for extremes. all or nothing. so I went from binge addiction bordering obese for last 3/4 years on and off, then this year I become a health nut and enjoyed it but I became too extreme, and then this month I couldn't keep up with it and all the prepping and I let go. and I just made excuses not to go to the gym.
but nothing can beat how I feel after a good workout, and when I eat well and healthy consistenly. and I want that feeling back, and I don't want to be a smoker again. I been playing with fire regarding smoking. but even tonight when I smoked, I hated it, it does not give me anything besides a headache.
so im ready to claw back. im ready to eat better again, but I don't want to be extreme. I definitely want to stop smoking and I know I can, because I haven't let myself get fully hooked as I don't enjoy it when I smoke. and I will return to gym next week. a week I might add that is pretty hardgoing with 5 double shifts and I intend to go to the gym before work. but I just cant do it this week. I need to kind of detox my body from the crap I been eating before I can go run on a treadmill. that's how bad I feel.
I want to eat healthier and better but not obsessive. no processed junk, home made food, clean, raw etc. it just tastes and makes me feel better. I feel like today when I ate, I couldn't even enjoy or finish the pizza or the desert cos it tasted awful and made me feel awful. I am ready to return to better eating. quit the smoking. and return to the gym
just try to find balance. that's what I need. I don't want to throw away all my hard work of this year. and it feels like I have but I am not someone who gives up. I beat these demons twice in the last 5 years and I wll do it again.
I know I can. everytime I fall I get back up stronger and wiser and I learn with every mistake.
the toll it has taken on me emotionally is like no other, I believe there is something in me that is unhappy, im unfulfilled or lonely or something, and its why I just stopped caring. well I know when I start to care again I go back to happy me, and I want her back. I want to love me again.
I still cant believe I let it happen. I was doing really well and so happy with my progress. I want that feeling again. I felt so powerful and strong and happy and unstoppable. I can get there again. I had to hit rock bottom to know its time to get up again. ive done it before I can do it again.
I will get there. 15 months ago
wanted to do this for years with a particular artwork, piccassos "the lovers" "los amantes" but sadly the puzzle of it isn't made anymore I believe. ive looked all over online Europe and the US a few years ago.
the annoying thing is I had that puzzle once and its still in my garage at home in SA except a lot of the pieces are missing. boo. but there are lots of other artwork puzzles out there so I will see if there are any other ones I fancy and buy one to complete.
think I will try one last time to look for the Picasso painting puzzle in the online world and hopefully one comes up but the chances are slim 15 months ago
does this goal mean to me?
well I want people to look at me and think, oh shes just a "normal"(lol I laughed when I reread this – I don't think im normal – but hopefully its a good thing) average plain jane but apon getting to know me they find out that I am passionate about/take part/get involved in different interesting things.
so for example
I want to become fluent in Portuguese
I want to be able to write in shorthand easily
I want to excel in strength training and powerlifting
I want to transform my body into a finely tuned machine (aesthetics)
indulge in wanderlust (travel more locally/internationally)
move to another country and start all over again (im thinking Portugal)
live on a boat (at least for a week – my dream holiday in turkey)
a trained opera singer (no not really, its an example)
meditate properly (finding inner peace, haven't tried this yet, need to research)
be a queen of sales if I can get a sales career. (I like selling I think its a good fit for me. esp retail and hospitality)
road trip one day in the good ol U S of A
learn to play poker and chess well
be able to do bar work in terms of fitness (pretty impossible – but can dream big here)
do 100 consecutive pushups
master pullups
own some rental property
get on the Deal or No Deal tv game show. I am currently filling in the application form online. its 12 pages.
work for myself
try speed dating
run a half marathon
spend more time outdoors in nature maybe with a group like hiking or similar
get creative – make something with my hands (don't know what yet)
master the art of dressing stylishly for work (future work). people are used to me in jeans and tshirts which I like but I do like to dress up when I have a reason to.
just try new experiences in life short term or long term.
anyway those are some examples. some serious some fluffy.
life is for living gotta remember that. and I like the idea of being interesting cos I feel so uninteresting and I want that to change.
I want to live an interesting and happy life. and do things that make me happy. just basically try new interesting things or follow my bliss.
I will add to this list in terms of goals I want to aspire to do, but also will create them as proper goals on here when I figure out how to make them happen or as it happens. some in progress, others just thoughts in my head still processing :) 15 months ago
apply for team secretary role email jan re referees
look for car insurance paperwork & send off – pending, in progress
look at recruitment sites see what jobs have eg Chiltern, platinum, bucks&berks, gumtree shorthand study finish book, start flashcards Portuguese study15 months ago
"There is one way to understand another culture. Living it. Move into it, ask to be tolerated as a guest, learn the language. At some point understanding may come. It will always be wordless. The moment you grasp what is foreign, you will lose the urge to explain it. To explain a phenomenon is to distance yourself from it."
― Peter Høeg, from Smilla's Sense of Snow 15 months ago
a book together. take turns reading or one can just read and the other listens.
reading a favourite book together. a chapter each night, or something like that.
its soppy but i think its nice. i cant see many guys liking this idea lol.
but its my list. so if this person ever comes along, will see if i could persuade them lol. 15 months ago
a midnight/night picnic, in a park or a backyard with food and wine, blanket on the ground. once enjoyed our picnic, layback and stargaze, slighty drunk but happy and content and relaxed.
always wanted to do this. ive done it on my own, where i had a half a bottle of wine, and i lay on the ground star gazing and listening to music.
ive also sat on a beautiful big balcony overlooking some land with lots of trees and plants and fields nearby a enjoying the night sky and the night sounds and smoking (when i used to be a proper smoker) and thinking bout life. there is something so wonderful about stargazing late at night. being outside at night. hearing the night sounds. its always been a peaceful experience. makes you realise how small you really are in this world.
so now to share that with someone would be nice. 15 months ago
my sacrifice – creed15 months ago
is to trust people to be who they are. instead we trust people to be who we want them to be and when they aren't we cry. – david duchovny
reminds me of yesterday with 20somthing kid. (no i didn't cry) made me realise i idealise him/others, and then come back to earth. i do this a lot actually! that he is far from perfect and a moody one too. so now i am seeing who he is with eyes wide open and pink glasses off.
still like him but no more overthinking all this stuff. i don't want to care anymore. im so tired of it all. 15 months ago
duolingo, memrise is another website I highly recommend for learning a new language (they also do learning for other things besides languages) and its free. like duolingo its a fun website.
and both duolingo and memrise have apps so you can work on your language studying on your phone when your on the go.
honestly I never thought I would enjoy this goal but I am really enjoying it. these 2 sites are like games and its addictive. I find this more fun than language cds and downloads cos its more interactive and its great that I can do them on my phone too.
there are also various language phrase apps you can download. so for example I downloaded some Portuguese, so whenever im bored and sitting on a train for example I listen to those and practice in my head when im not on these 2 sites that is.
im gonna be brave and try and watch a movie in Portuguese sometime.
I feel so motivated with this goal lately. im gonna practice my skills with my Portuguese colleagues. i wanna surprise them with how much i have improved :)
will take time tho but its fun trying 15 months ago
the eve
right here – staind15 months ago
yes, that is true. didn't think of it like that.
its been a loooonnngg time since I went to an interview for anything! 15 months ago

'Breaking Bad' took home the top honor at Sunday's (September 22) Primetime Emmy Awards, winning the best drama series prize for the first time, as AMC's gritty tale of a schoolteacher turned meth kingpin heads into the homestretch of its final season. Jeff Daniels, who plays a jaded anchorman in HBO's 'The Newsroom,' scored an upset win for the best actor in a drama, beating out front-runner Bryan Cranston, of the aforementioned drama 'Breaking Bad.'

In a game originally slated for Wed., Feb. 2 but postponed a day due to weather, Emmanuel hit a basket with :46.6 remaining to break a 68-68 tie and added a pair of critical free throws with :04.9 to go to help the visiting Saints defeat Wesleyan Thurs., Feb. 3, 72-69. Wesleyan, which led 39-34 at halftime, trailed only briefly in the second period, recovering from a 52-48 deficit to secure the game's largest advantage at 63-54 behind a 15-2 run with 8:56 to play. Six players scored for the Cardinals during the run with Kendra Harris '13 getting four of her 13 points at that time.
But the Saints patiently whittled the lead down over the next seven minutes, eventually tying the score for the 13th time in the contest, 68-68, with 1:51 to go. Wesleyan had two possessions, turning the ball over once and missing a three-pointer, sandwiching a Saint missed field goal, the Saints went ahead for good. Amber Wessells '14 hit one of two free throws for the Cardinals with :42.3 left to make it 70-69. While the Saints turned the ball over on their next two possessions, the Cardinals failed to convert on a pair of shots during one possession and then committed a costly turnover with :05 to go, leading to the last two Emmanual free throws. Wesleyan managed just a desperate 35-foot try at the end but the toss was swatted aside by the Emmanuel defense.
For Wesleyan, Sam LaCroce ' 12 (#20, photo by SteveMcLaughlinPhotography.com) posted a double-double with 16 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Erin Gold '11 added 11 for the home squad.
The first half featured a tight opening five minutes before a 7-0 Wesleyan run spotted the host a 20-13 edge. Emmanual came right back to tie the game at 24-24 with an 11-4 burst and held a 29-26 lead before the Cardinals ended the half on a 13-5 run for a five-point halftime lead. Emmanuel now leads the overall series vs. Wesleyan, 6-3.
Wesleyan was looking for its first conference win and a chance to break a 10-game losing streak when it traveled to NESCAC rival Conn. College Sat., Feb. 5 for its next start. The Camels broke a 13-game losing skid vs. Wesleyan, dating back to 1997, with a 49-42 victory. The loss eliminated the Cardinals from NESCAC tournament contention, the first time since 2001 that Wesleyan will be sitting out the post-season.
At Conn, Wesleyan led much of the first half but trailed, 25-24, at intermission. The Camels never relinquished the lead in the second half, pulling ahead by as many as 11 (41-30) with 5:08 to go. The Cardinals got no closer than seven the rest of the way, hurt by their collective 26.7 shooting percentage and 4-for-24 effort from three-point range. Wesleyan did force 20 Camel turnovers while making just 11 of its own and limited the host to 28.9 percent shooting, but Conn had a 48-36 edge on the boards and outscored its visitor by 13 at the free-throw line.
Wesleyan moves out-of-conference for its next outing, hosting Suffolk Tues., Feb. 8.

The last ten years of information security are barely a hint to what comes next. This special report will explore the major tectonic forces at play that will change how business use of technology will be dramatically changed by rapid escalations in threat, defense and societal demands.

17 October 2013
To preserve trust in the Internet, strong enterprise coalitions should form and aim to serve the needs of their members. In Gartner's "coalition rule" scenario, CISOs and strategic planners need to protect their enterprise's Web presence, starting with participation in like-minded groups.
9 October 2013
In Gartner's "neighborhood watch" scenario, individuals are attackers' primary targets and governments have a limited ability to mitigate threats to citizens. Security and risk management strategists should expand and augment their customer support and outreach efforts to build communities of trust.
10 October 2013
In Gartner's "regulated risk" scenario, enterprises are the primary target for attackers, and governments enforce strong regulations to mitigate threats. Security and risk management strategists should move aggressively toward compliance, and minimize technological and behavioral vulnerabilities.
16 October 2013
In Gartner's "Controlling Parent" scenario, individuals are the focus of malicious actors and of regulation. Strategic planning leaders — including CIOs and CISOs — should plan and budget for deeper technology and service protections for customers, citizens, executives and employees.
3 October 2013
A sea change in the security space (the scope and depth of surveillance) requires a recalibration of what can be observed and by whom, and where the data ends up. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking and may not agree with Gartner's official positions.)
23 September 2013
IT is often seen as amoral, but we challenge this view. Through the Nexus of Forces, corporate computing has expanded its footprint on society. CIOs should embrace the ethics of IT. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking and may not agree with Gartner's official positions.)
22 August 2013
Dynamic, risk-based authentication and authorization decisions have been important in financial services for quite some time. These techniques are now expanding to mobile and enterprise, and they are using broader sources of user context that affect both security and user experience.
5 October 2012
Enterprise IT supply chains will be targeted and compromised, forcing changes in the structure of the IT marketplace and how IT will be managed moving forward. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking, and may not agree with Gartner's official positions.)
5 December 2012
Traditional management of operational risk is delivering diminishing returns as the pace of business accelerates. Crowdsourcing can change how risk is managed and decisions are made. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking and may not agree with Gartner's official positions.)
12 September 2012
Traditional security controls are increasingly ineffective and obstructive in a world where rapid technology change is driving business strategy. We need a radically new approach. (Maverick research deliberately exposes unconventional thinking and may not agree with Gartner's official positions.)
12 November 2012
By 2023, the CRO role will be an executive position with an operational reporting connection to the board, separate from internal audit. Operational risk will be equally important to credit and market risks, requiring new skills and driving the information needs of the role.
30 April 2013
The Nexus of Forces of cloud, social, mobile and big data erodes the effectiveness of traditional technological security controls. To mitigate risk, security teams must invest in behavioral controls that align with security objectives.
31 May 2013
Macro changes in targets and threats outside the enterprise are shaping the risk and security landscape over the next decade. Visibility into these anticipated changes will help strategic planning leaders dissect future security and risk practices and uncover new opportunities.
30 May 2013
Advanced targeted attacks make prevention-centric strategies obsolete. Securing enterprises in 2020 will require a shift to information- and people-centric security strategies, combined with pervasive internal monitoring and sharing of security intelligence.
31 May 2013
Processing personal data is rarely a central driver of business. It has real costs and always carries risks. As organizations cease processing personal data due to forces in mobile and cloud computing, they should address this loss of control in their business strategies.
31 May 2013
Future threat environments will force security and risk leaders to create new, adaptive control environments. A structured approach — one that defines, regularly surveys and improves control effectiveness — will help teams plan and adapt to the changing landscape.
31 May 2013
In Gartner's "coalition rule" scenario, the future of security is a world where barriers to entry for malicious actors are low, and government intervention is absent or ineffective. Strategic planning leaders should expand and augment BCM efforts in alignment with explicit IT risk leadership.

By his standards, Leo Santa Cruz had a slow beginning to his title defense against Alberto Guevara in the main event of the afternoon session.
However, Santa Cruz certainly warmed to the occasion.
Santa Cruz (23-0-1) eventually wore down an extremely game Guevara, winning by unanimous decision, 116-112, 118-110 and 119-109 to retain his IBF bantamweight title.
The fight wasnât as easy as the wide margin on the scorecard. Guevaraâs last fight was at lightweight, when he lost to Raul Hidalgo in August. That strength caused some trouble for Santa Cruz.
âI couldnât breathe right since the third round and I messed up my right hand during sparring, thatâs why I turned to southpaw.â
This was the fifth fight of the year for Santa Cruz and his third title defense. He won the title in June when he defeated Vusi Malinga.
âIâve been fighting a lot lately and I donât think Iâve given myself enough time to rest,â Santa Cruz said.
Guevara, who fights for Erik Moralesâ promotional company, has now lost two consecutive fights.

Hi there,
Huge fan of Arsenal Blogger! Keep up the good work.
My name is Ollie and I run a YouTube channel where I track down football legends. Last week I found former Arsenal player Chris Wreh. I was hoping that you might be able to please tweet out the video if you like it or even feature it on Arsenal Blogger?
Wreh is the first Gunner I've found and I'd really appreciate the shout out!
Thank you,

Alisa Fleming ~ At times (okay, not a lot of times, but occasionally) I think the economic downturn was a blessing in disguise. For years it seemed the gifts were getting bigger, more expensive, and difficult to select. But now, as people cutback, the creativity and heart is truly emerging. Over the holidays I was overwhelmed to see all of the wonderful gifts that people made for their loved ones and friends, whether a hand-knitted scarf or a delicious gift from the kitchen.
But who says homemade gifts should only be given in the last month of the year? What about that precious holiday known as Valentine's Day? You know, the one where giving gifts from the heart means even more.
Of course, some of you, like me, may have been skipped when the crafty gene was passed on. So, I thought some simple but delicious dairy-free and vegan valentine recipes might be just the kind of thing you have been looking for. Here are links to some of our favorites:
Vegan Chocolate Cherry "Cheesecake"
You will be amazed by both the decadence and the simplicity of this luxurious dessert.
A heart shaped muffin pan really sends this baked treat over the top.
Peanut Butter Pretzel Chocolate Hearts
A fun one to make with kids! Of course, you can skip the pretzels and go with the original peanut butter truffle recipe for an equally delicious treat.
Miniature Chocolate-Covered Cheesecake Bites of Love
Another dairy-free cheesecake-inspired indulgence, but this one is soy-free and downright healthy, to boot!
Overnight Vegan Double-the-Cinnamon Rolls
Okay, so it isn't heart shaped, nor chocolate, but who wouldn't love to wake up to one (or three) of these?
Four simple ingredients for one scrumptious little treat.
Quadruple Chocolate Vegan Muffin-Cakes
For loved ones who prefer your chocolate in cake form. Yes, there is frosting too.
Red Hot Dark Chocolate Pudding made with Coconut MIlk
Spiked with chipotle pepper, this rich and creamy pudding is sure to spice up your Valentine's day.
Who says only sweets must be given at Valentine's Day? Enjoy this savory dish during a romantic candlelight dinner for two!
Red Velvet Cake with Velvet Frosting
Okay, this one requires a little more effort than most of the others on this list, but talk about an impressive "Be My Valentine" recipe.
Chocolate Cashew Vegan Valentine Truffles
Simple, luxurious vegan truffles dressed in red sprinkles for the occasion.
This heart-healthy pudding is easy to make and has a luxurious taste and texture, even though it is surprisingly low in fat.
More Lovely Recipes …
Gluten-Free Chocolate Cherry Drop Scones
Roasted Red Pepper Soup with Dreamy Hearts
Strawberry Chocolate "Heart-Cakes"
Chocolate Mousse Cups (pictured below)
Idea: Heart-Shaped Cheese-Free Pizza
Idea: Heart-Shaped Sugar Cookies (Frosted if you wish) – Gluten-Free or Vegan
Do you have any favorite dairy-free and/or vegan valentine recipes? Feel free to share them in the comments – links are welcome!
Great round-up, Alisa!
My two favorite nondairy V-Day treat recipes are these Raw Raspberry Cream Filled Chocolate Candies and these no-bake/sugar-free Berry-Pomegranate Cookie Bites!
I haven't yet decided what kind of chocolate treat we'll be enjoying tomorrow but I'm sure there will be one! These cupcakes were a hit last year: http://www.carascravings.com/2012/02/chocolate-raspberry-cupcakes-for-love-your-heart.html
What a great roundup of V-Day treats! Thanks so much for including mine. And since you asked. . . one of my all-time faves are these Spiked Sweet Potato Truffles: http://bit.ly/12MXJv3 Hope you have a very Happy V-Day!
All of a sudden I am craving MORE chocolate. This is a great resource. Pinning for future reference!

Empty a bag of silica sand into a small rental mortar mixer (about $45 per day). Add the two-part EcoSystems grout, then add the recommended amount of water. Mix for three minutes. Wet the stones with a light hand sprayer. Empty the mixed grout onto the stones and squeegee the sand and epoxy grout mixture around to cover the joints between the stones.
Builder's Tip: On a hot day, the stones will warm up and the water spray will evaporate. Keep spraying as needed prior to application of grout.
The sanded grout joints will set up by themselves. No pressure is needed to compress the sanded joints.
Use a push broom to sweep the excess grout from atop the stones. Sweep the stone-covered area clean. Allow the grout to set for 48 hours prior to placing heavy objects on the stones.

A Syrian helicopter shot down by rebels, says the opposition. Reuters cannot independently verify the video, but footage posted online Monday purports to show rebels downing the aircraft over Menagh airport, near Aleppo. And this is what they may have used to bring it down. A rebel fighter from Aleppo's air defense battalion, which claimed responsibility for the attack, says it's a thermal rocket captured from Assad forces.

Vienna, Austria
Vienna, considered by many to be the cultural capital of Europe, is a city with unique flair, liveliness and charm. Generations of artists, students and connoisseurs of life have sought out Vienna for its inspirational art and architecture, parks and palaces, music and opera, and of course, the famous Viennese coffee houses. Vienna was selected "World's best place to live" in Mercer's annual Quality of Living Survey for five years in a row! (2009-2014). Like Geneva, Vienna is the home of many multinational headquarters for the CEE region and international organizations such as the United Nations, OSCE, OPEC, just to name a few. Vienna is located in the heart of Europe with easy access to many major European cities and historical sites.
For over 30 years now, Webster's Vienna campus has been providing a high standard of education in Austria, giving students from all over the world the opportunity to experience the benefits of an American education. Today, Webster Vienna is a truly international community with over 500 students representing 70 different nationalities and faculty from over 20 countries.
Webster Vienna is situated in a classic Palais, known as Palais Wenkheim. Located at Praterstrasse 23 in the 2nd district near the Danube Canal, our campus is just a few steps away from the center of Vienna. Built in 1826, Palais Wenkheim features tremendous architectural detailing, both interior and exterior. Palais Wenkheim is able to support as many as 1,000 students.

In shrimping towns such as Thunderbolt, Georgia, McClellanville, South Carolina, and Morehead City, North Carolina, you can find shrimp burgers, but every place that serves them has a different "secret" recipe. Some shrimp burgers are chunky with diced shrimp and herbs, loosely bound, and pan-fried. Others are like an enormous shrimp dumpling, with a smooth, shrimpy paste enrobed by a crunchy, deep-fried crust. We tested six shrimp burger recipes for a story and found the one Robert Stehling makes at Charleston's Hominy Grill to be the finest, to our tastes. It's the chunkier style of burger, and its genius is its use of lemon zest. When we developed our own shrimp burger recipe, we added corn for texture and a sweetness that draws out the shrimp flavor, and added fresh ginger to give it complexity.
1. In a 3-quart saucepan, bring the water and shrimp boil to a boil over high heat. Turn off the heat. Add the shrimp and let stand until they are just pink, about 2 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking. Peel the shrimp (and devein them if you wish; see Notes: Deveining Shrimp," ) and chop coarsely. You should have 1¾ cups chopped shrimp.
2. In a large bowl, mix the shrimp with the scallions, corn, parsley, ginger, and lemon zest. Stir in the mayonnaise and bread crumbs and season with salt, black pepper, and pepper vinegar. Add the egg and gently fold with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
3. Form the shrimp mixture into 4 patties, each 3½ inches in diameter. Wrap the patties in plastic wrap and let stand in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
4. Remove the burgers from the refrigerator and unwrap. Place the oil in a ½-inch skillet and heat over high heat. When it shimmers, add the burgers and sauté until both sides are gently browned, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on a dinner plate lined with a paper towel.
5. Serve on toasted hamburger buns with lettuce, tomato.
Use a gentle hand when flipping the burgers in the skillet.
What to Drink: A cold, hoppy American ale like a Dogfish Head I.P.A. or a white wine with a little oak are great sips with shrimp burgers.
Buying Fresh Shrimp
In this book, shrimp always appear in the ingredients list as "headless shrimp, shells on," That's for two reasons. First, fish markets and supermarkets most commonly sell fresh shrimp as such, so finding them is easy. Second, keeping the shells on until you're ready to use the shrimp keeps them from losing their natural moisture, which not only carries a great deal of flavor but retains texture by keeping them from drying out. The shrimp shells themselves bear a bounty of flavor, so we often use them.
During shrimp season along the South Carolina coast, people sell shrimp from trucks parked along coastal highway 17. Short of being on the dock when the shrimp boats come in, this may be the most direct route to the freshest shrimp available. You don't have to be intimidated if they're sold with the heads on (they often are). Shrimp heads are easy to remove, requiring just a simple pinch between thumb and forefinger, and they give wonderful flavor to broth. When buying shrimp with heads, note that they spoil quicker and that the heads constitute about 35 percent of the shrimp's weight. So if a recipe calls for 2 pounds of headless shrimp, shells on, buy almost 2¾ pounds whole shrimp with shells to compensate.
Purchase shrimp only according to the count per pound and never by descriptions such as "large" or "medium." We've found these descriptions to fluctuate wildly from shop to shop (and even within the same shop!). A good fish market will always know the count per pound of each variety of shrimp it offers. These are average numbers, of course, which is why they are always expressed as a range. If the market does not know the piece count per pound, ask the fishmonger to place a dozen or so on a scale to see how much they weigh. The size we favor for most recipes is 26 to 30 shrimp per pound, generally considered large. Smaller ones tend to look measly on the plate and to require too much shelling labor. Jumbo shrimp, we find, become tough when cooked, and their texture flattens the flavor.
In some markets you can buy shrimp that are already peeled and deveined. These cost more, and often have been roughly handled. But having someone else peel your shrimp saves a great deal of time, so if that is a deciding factor in whether or not you make a recipe, by all means buy peeled shrimp. But keep in mind that a shrimp's shell and legs make up about 12 percent of its weight, so if you're using peeled shrimp in a recipe that calls for 2 pounds headless shrimp, shells on, you'll require only 88 percent of that weight, or about 1¾ pounds.
Deveining Shrimp
The "vein" of a shrimp is its digestive tract. It is flavorless, harmless to eat, and such a small proportion of a shrimp's weight that it doesn't pronouncedly affect its flavor or its texture; still, some eaters detect a certain grittiness when it hasn't been removed. Whether or not you devein shrimp is a matter of personal preference. We do it only when presentation is paramount. If you have the time and you want to do it, go for it.
You can devein raw shrimp with the shell on or off. Either way, the technique is the same: hold the shrimp between your thumb and forefinger one third of an inch behind where the head was cut off. Place the tip of a sharp paring knife with the blade facing up in the slight indentation at the top of the shrimp's body (which may or may not have a dark spot of vein marking it), and push the blade toward the tail, making a shallow incision the length of the shrimp's back. This cut will expose the dark vein, which you can then remove with the tip of the paring knife.

I found this nice antique Windsor Writing Chair on the blog The Antique Chair Guide, a blog that describes the various periods in antique chair design. In my opinion it should be updated a bit more frequently. But it is worth wile a visit.
Update: The site seems having disappeared since.

Those familiar with Lewis Carroll's literary menagerie of colorful characters will enjoy the clarity with which Christopher Wheeldon portrays them in dance. The whole Company is drawn into the fun, dancing a myriad of quirky characters: a twitchy White Rabbit, a tap dancing Mad Hatter, a sinuous caterpillar and so many more. Alice and the Knave of Hearts, deftly danced by Lauren Cuthbertson and Federico Bonelli, are at the centre of the story, and in the role of The Queen of Hearts, Zenaida Yanowsky, is wittily captured with hilarious results. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a brilliantly imagined show and, with a magical score, ingeniously inventive designs and a wealth of theatrical effects, has something for everyone to treasure. Don't miss what the Telegraph called "a dazzling affair.…intoxicating and exceptional…[Wheeldon] - along with everyone else involved in this mind-boggling production - should also take a bow."
Christopher Wheeldon's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland arrived on the stage in 2011 with a burst of color, theatrical magic and inventive choreography. It was The Royal Ballet's first full-length work since 1995 and was instantly acclaimed as a classic. Joby Talbot's score combines sweeping melodies, which gesture to ballet scores of the 19th century, with contemporary effects. Bob Crowley's wildly imaginative sets and costumes draw on puppetry, projections and masks to bring Wonderland to life. Alice encounters a cast of extraordinary characters down the rabbit hole: from the highly-strung Queen of Hearts, who performs a hilarious rendition of the famous Rose Adagio from The Sleeping Beauty; to dancing playing cards; a sinuous caterpillar and a tap-dancing Mad Hatter. There is a love narrative for Alice and the Knave of Hearts, and they dance a tender pas de deux at the close of Act II. But the ballet does not avoid the darker undercurrents of Lewis Carroll's story – a nightmarish kitchen, an eerily disembodied Cheshire Cat and an unhinged tea party are all created in vivid detail.

Perfect competition
This tutorial looks at markets that are deemed to have "perfect competition." This means that there are many players with identical products, no barriers to entry, no advantage for existing players and good pricing information. Few to no real market completely matches this theoretical ideal, but many are close. Even the example we use in this tutorial (the airline industry) isn't quite perfect (you should think about why).
No, we aren't talking about the board game although the game does try to approximate what this tutorial is about--notice that you can charge more rent at either Boardwalk or Park Place if you own both (you have a "monopoly" in the navy blue market). The opposite of perfect competition is when you have only one firm operating. This tutorial explores what this firm would do to maximize economic profit.
Between perfect competition and monopoly
Most markets sit somewhere in-between perfect competition and monopolies. This tutorial explores some of those scenarios--from monopolistic competition to oligopolies and duopolies.

Most of us don't pay a lot of attention to our tires unless they go flat or blow out. Now that most new vehicles have low pressure sensors that display a light when one or more tires needs air, even fewer people check their tire pressure regularly.
Some new technology may eliminate the need to check it ever, or to put more air in from time to time.
Goodyear is doing research to produce tires that maintain their own optimum air pressure level. Called Air Maintenance Technology, the tire employs an internal sensor and a pump mechanism that runs around the circumference of the tire, underneath the tread.
When the sensor detects that the internal pressure has fallen below the preset limit, a valve opens to allow air from outside the tire to be drawn into a pumping tube. The air is compressed by the rolling motion and deformation of the tire and released into the tire interior.
The entire mechanism is contained within the tire, so there is no need for any connection to the vehicle's electronics.
Where the Rubber Meets the Road
The technology was rolled out at an international commercial vehicle show in Germany in September. There is still no product for sale that incorporates the mechanism. When it does become available, it will be marketed primarily to commercial vehicle owners.
The American Trucking Association says that half of all on-the-road breakdowns involve the tires of the tractor or trailer, and that tires are the single largest maintenance cost for commercial fleet operators.
Underinflated tires aren't just more prone to break down. Goodyear's estimates are that a 10 percent drop in tire pressure results in a one percent loss in gas mileage. Tires that are underinflated by 10 percent also experience a drop in tread life between nine and 16 percent.
When I was an editor in another life, EVOC instructor Sgt. Dave Storton of the San Jose Police Department produced an excellent article for me on the importance of having optimal pressure in your patrol car's tires. It's no longer available on that website, but it is reproduced here.
This is the sort of information that could stand repeating during roll call training.
Another approach to avoiding tire pressure problems is to do away with the inflated torus (for folks not up on your topological nomenclature, that's the shape otherwise called a "donut") model, replacing it with a flexible framework between the tread and the wheel.
We wrote about these last year, but they haven't been available for any high-speed applications.
Britek Tire and Rubber has patented a bicycle tire design based on this principle and is trying to find a manufacturer to help them market it. Their brainchild is called the Energy Return Wheel (ERW), and uses elastic cushions, similar to spokes, between the tread and wheel. Britek claims that energy from bumps against road obstacles is converted into forward momentum, instead of to the rider and frame.
I'm not enough of a physicist to say whether this is possible, but it's an interesting idea.
The cushions of the ERW are adjustable, so the rider can get a softer or harder ride, as they prefer. Britek has a video available on their website that shows the tires in use on a mountain bike. Whether this can be extended to a road bike or motor vehicle model remains to be seen.
Previous internal frame tires have had trouble with durability at high speeds. Having your tires disintegrate during a vehicle pursuit can ruin your day.
Until these technologies become available — if they ever do — make it part of your vehicle check-out procedure to verify the tires on your car are inflated to spec.
As Storton's article referenced above explains much better than I can, proper tire inflation contributes heavily to the handling characteristics and safety of your car. We're still losing about half the cops killed in any given year to vehicle incidents.
Take every precaution to ensure your car is as serviceable and dependable as you can make it.
