At the end of March 2014, 39-year old Steph Jeavons will set off on a Honda CRF250L, not to her office or to the shops but on an epic 15-month long, 50,000 miles trip across all 7 continents. If successful Steph will become the first British woman to do achieve this incredible feat and only the 5th person in the world to hit all 7 continents solo on a motorbike.
Steph's solo overland motorcycle journey around the world will visit 42 countries yet to make things even harder, as if they weren't difficult enough already, she will avoid main roads and motorways! No support vehicles are involved and Steph will simply carry whatever she can on her bike, including a two-man tent.
30 years ago Elspeth Beard managed all of the above except South America on her BMW R60/6 and it has never been completed since.
The route she plans to take winds through Europe then over to Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and then down through Malaysia and Indonesia to Australia and then over to South America. Then the big challenge: Antarctica, before returning to S. America and heading up to Canada then over to Africa and then ride back through Spain.
Her aim is to raise money for Rally4Life and Steph will live on a food budget of just £5 per day whilst relying on "the kindness of strangers seeing me through. I am using social media to invite people to offer me the odd sofa for the night where I can scrub up and move on. This is proving very popular and I already have at least one person in each country." said Steph.
She continued, "I will be avoiding all major roads and motorways and using back roads and dirt tracks wherever possible. This trip really is about living, learning and enjoying. I am certainly not attempting to break the speed record!"
Honda have supplied the CRF250L which Steph describes as "light and manageable on and off road so it's particularly perfect for women and vertically challenged adventures like myself!"
You can follow Steph's progress via her blog.
It's the world riding launch of the new Yamaha Tracer 700, and Bike Social's Michael Mann is in Italy at the world press launch of the new twin-cylinder 689cc sports tourer based on the MT-07. Here are his first riding impressions.

Wintery Saturday morning
It's a new year and the weather outside is still frightful and rather chilly. But the holidays are done and gone, so you might ask yourself, "What is there to do on a cold Saturday morning?"
Well, you can put your winter coat and hat on and head to the Indoor Winter Market at Shaker Square. Their winter market opens for business this Saturday, January 8 and will continue every Saturday until March 26. The hours for this delightful market are 9 a.m. until noon.
They have several returning vendors from their summer market, which was located outside in Shaker Square. The market will feature fresh produce available, meats, fresh baked goods, local honey and cheese as well. Oh, and there will also be some handmade soaps and delicate treasures for everyone.
The forecast for Saturday morning in Shaker Heights is possible snow showers and 21 degrees, but what better way to spend your morning? You could stay home shovel the driveway or watch some cartoons.
Come on down to the Indoor Winter Market at Shaker Square. After your shopping trip, stop by Dewey's Coffee on the north side of the square. Treat yourself to a nice cup of coffee after you shop the market!
Now, doesn't that sound like a recipe for a warm Saturday morning?
Until next time…

Hillary and Bill turn their backs on Danny Williams, a child
Danny Williams is probably the only child Bill has ever had. Both wild Bill and the 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary have denied and rejected this child from the day he was born back in the mid 1980's. Chelsea is probably the seed of Webb Hubbell, NOT Bill Clinton. Also, Bill paid Gennifer Flowers $200 to have an abortion in January, 1978. Bill's only child, Danny Williams, is the one he and 1984 Arkansas Mother of The Year Hillary have denied and rejected from the day the boy was born. Of all the things that Bill and the 1984 Arkansas Mother of The Year Hillary have done, this is one of the very worst: denying the child, something Jesse Jackson said he would never do when he had a child outside of his marriage. Hillary and Bill have done NOTHING for Danny Williams (now about age 22), Bill's (probable and only) child with former drug-addicted prostitute Bobbie Ann Williams:
From Robert Morrow Clinton expert Austin, TX 512-306-1510
Recently in the news there has been the story of Hillary's brother Tony Rodham who is a deadbeat dad who has not paid $158,000 owed to his former wife Nicole Boxer: http://www.nypost.com/seven/12202007/news/nationalnews/hills_brother_a_deadbeat_514395.htm Being a deadbeat parent is nothing new to 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary and Bill who have done NOTHING for Bill's (probable) son Danny Williams - the product of wild Bill's cocaine-fueled sex orgies with crack whore Bobbie Ann Williams and her girl friends back in the 1980's in Arkansas. Cokehead Bill was a good match for a ghetto crack whore. Danny Williams was born in 1985 so he would be about 22 years old today (2007).
Wild Bill was definitely having affairs with crack whores from the projects. The projects were only 5 blocks away from the governor's Mansion in Little Rock and Bill met Bobbie Ann when he was out jogging one day. He came back the next day and got a blow job in the bushes. Then his state trooper aide Buddy Young used to pick up Bill and the ghetto girls and take them out to the cabin of Virginia Kelley, Bill's mom. Larry Patterson, another state trooper, says that after Danny was born, Bill had him take some of Chelsea's extra Christmas gifts over to the home of Bobbie Ann Williams around Christmas time on one or two occasions. One time Lucille Bolton, the boy's aunt, brought Danny to the Arkansas Governor's mansion, but 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary refused to let them in. 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary and Bill were denying the child. 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary sure does give a lot of speeches about women and children and how to raise children ... but 1984 Arkansas Mother of the year Hillary has shown herself to be a fraud in the way she denies and rejects Bill's only kid, Danny Williams.
Say McIntosh was bribed by the Clintons to keep quiet about Bill's (probable) son Danny Williams in the 1992 campaign. In return for Say McIntosh not making an issue of this in the 1992 campaign, Bill made sure that Tommy McIntosh, the son of Say McIntosh was pardoned in early 1993, 18 years before he was even eligible for parole on drug charges. Typical Clinton corruption: selling pardons for political favors.
Although neither DNA or paternity blood tests have been done on Bill or Danny Williams we can assume that the child is Bill's because Bill sure acts like it is his - although he has done nothing for his only child. We know that Bill is not sterile because he got Gennifer Flowers pregnant in Dec., 1977 and paid her $200 to get an abortion in Jan., 1978. Chelsea is probably the seed of Webb Hubbell, NOT Bill Clinton; so Chelsea proves nothing about Bill's fertility. Many of Bill's girlfriends say he does not use condoms; Bobbie Ann says he told her he does not to use "scumbags." Ironically, because Bill and 1984 Arkansas Mother of the Year Hillary ARE scumbags. A Drudge Report from 1999 on this:
Hillary denies the Child;
Politics more important than taking care of Bill's child with Bobbie Ann Williams
When Jesse Jackson had his child with his mistress, the one thing Jesse said he would never do was "deny the child." That is exactly what Hillary and Bill have done with Danny Williams: deny the child. It is one of the most evil things that a parent can do.

Racist Cover-Up in Story of Clinton's 'Illegitimate Son'?
Carl Limbacher
December 15, 1998NewsMax.com
Why won't the same media that chased the story of Rep. Dan Burton's love child and made national headlines out of House Judiciary Committee Chairman Henry Hyde's ancient affair report the Danny Williams story? "Cause they're racist," says Robert "Say" McIntosh, the Little Rock community activist who first called attention to the story of Bill Clinton's alleged son in 1988. Like Danny's family, McIntosh is convinced that the child is Clinton's: "If you see Danny, you can tell it's definitely his kid. I've met him, talked to him. Danny isn't black." Both Danny's mom, Bobbie Ann Williams, and her husband, Danny Sr. are African-American. McIntosh told NewsMax.com that when he first found out that Danny's mom was claiming that her son was conceived during a sexual encounter with the then-Arkansas governor, he went straight to the press. "I took it to the news media," he said, "because this was about the same time Gary Hart got in trouble." Hart was 1988's odds-on favorite to snag the Democratic presidential nomination until he challenged the press to look into his private life. The Miami Herald did and reported an apparent Hart affair with then-party girl Donna Rice. When pictures of Rice snuggled on Hart's lap aboard the good ship "Monkey Business" appeared in a supermarket tabloid just days later, Hart's hopes for high office were toast. But McIntosh got a distinctly indifferent reaction from reporters who had swarmed all over the Gary Hart story when he broached the topic of then-3-year-old Danny Williams. "They told me: 'That's not news. If you find out that Clinton has been messing with some white women, that's news. Let us know,'" McIntosh recounted. He said he was offended by that response, explaining, "You know, my mother is black, my wife is black and I've got eight black sisters." McIntosh says that the media's nonchalance about his bombshell information wasn't universal: "The press in London was interested," he said. "They've always been interested in this story." Danny's aunt Lucille Bolton confirmed McIntosh's claim that the British press had been chasing this story, telling NewsMax.com that a London reporter had called her the same day she spoke to us. Ten years ago, after Little Rock's media thumbed its nose at the story, McIntosh took the news to the streets, printing up handbills with Danny's photo under the salacious headline: "The Hottest Thing Going: Bill Clinton's D**k [penis] Will Keep Him From Running for President of the United States of America." The flier's text read: "Please help me raise money to take care of [this] black baby, the 'black sheep of the family.' This baby is by a black woman. This picture is furnished by the Righteous Rev. Tommy Knots. Rev. Knots is an aide to Hillary Clinton at the Rose Law Firm. After he did a six-month investigation, God told him to bring it to me. All Clinton is willing to do for the mother is keep her out of jail and prison." The last sentence refers to the prostitution charge Little Rock authorities could have brought against Danny's mother, who was working the streets when she hooked up with the person she claims is Danny's biological father. Rev. Knots became involved, according to McIntosh, after Danny's mom contacted him at the Rose Law Firm about her son. She gave Knots the photo and told him that the governor wouldn't take care of the child. Bobbie Ann Williams had sought out Knots undoubtedly hoping that the news would reach one of Rose's leading lawyers, Hillary Clinton. But it did no good. As happened with her sister Lucille Bolton in her one-on-one conversation with Hillary herself (see News on the President's Secret Son), Bobbie Ann's efforts to get the Clintons to acknowledge the child came up empty. But it was McIntosh who was most vocal about the case. After Clinton announced his candidacy for president, McIntosh says he publicly called for the governor to take a paternity test. What was the reaction? "They begged me not to do it," McIntosh says now. "Susie Whitacre [Clinton's then-press secretary] begged me to stop putting those fliers out. They never denied the story. They just begged me to stop." McIntosh says he last spoke to Bobbie Ann in April, when she asked for his advice about the offer by "A Current Affair" to do her story. He told her she should be paid for her explosive account – at least $100,000. For whatever reason, Bobbie Ann's story has yet to hit the TV airwaves. (Internet bloodhound Matt Drudge has reported that "Hard Copy," a competitor of "A Current Affair," had a piece on Danny's mom in the works but backed out after Paramount executives nixed the idea.) Some consider Robert "Say" McIntosh something of a loose cannon. Danny's aunt, Lucille Bolton, told NewsMax.com that he was merely out for his own publicity. When questioned by NewsMax.com at a recent pro-impeachment rally in Washington, D.C., former Clinton bodyguard L.D. Brown described McIntosh as "a nut." Still, Brown and McIntosh offer amazingly similar accounts regarding the Clinton marriage. Brown regaled the rally with his eyewitness perspective on evidence that Hillary Clinton and the late Vincent Foster were involved in a love affair. He added that the failure to examine this aspect of Foster's life seriously compromised investigations into his suspicious death. On the same subject, McIntosh told NewsMax.com: "Hillary and Bill don't have a real marriage. It's just a front. That's why Foster killed himself -- over Hillary." Loose cannon or not, without Robert McIntosh, the Danny Williams story would have never seen the light of day. And with Little Rock still buzzing about the news he broke, it's a story with many chapters yet to be written.
Bill sold pardon of Say McIntosh's son Tommy (1-20-93) in return for Say shutting up about Bill's only child:
Danny Williams
Saturday Feb. 24, 2001; 2:51 a.m. EST NewsMax
Clinton Bio: President Traded Clemency for Silence on 'Love Child' Charge
Bill Clinton began abusing his executive pardon power on the very first day he entered the White House; arranging to commute a drug dealer's prison sentence to silence critics who charged he was a deadbeat dad, a biography of Hillary Clinton claims.
The case involved the son of Little Rock civil rights leader Robert "Say" McIntosh, who alleged during the 1980's that then-Governor Clinton had fathered an illegitimate child by local black prostitute Bobbie Ann Williams.
In her 1999 Hillary Clinton biography "The First Partner," author Joyce Milton reports that McIntosh publicly claimed Bill Clinton had promised to grant his then-imprisoned son an early release two years before becoming president.
At the time young Tommy McIntosh was serving a 50 year jail sentence on a cocaine rap.
The demand languished until Jan. 20, 1993, when the wheels of justice suddenly became unstuck.
With Clinton's successor Arkansas Governor Jim Guy Tucker in D.C. for the inauguration, the job of fullfilling the clemency pledge fell to president pro tempore of the Arkansas State Senate, Dr. Jerry Jewell.
The order to spring Tommy McIntosh was signed as the new president was sworn in, releasing him years before he would have normally gotten anywhere near a parole board.
In January 1999 STAR Magazine claimed that a comparison of genetic information showed young Danny Williams' DNA did not match Clinton's, though an actual paternity test was never performed.
But before the news came out, Clinton's behavior suggested he believed the results could go either way.
"Right up to the day STAR revealed the test results, the White House failed to issue a flat denial of the allegations," Milton reported.
"Either Clinton did have relations with Bobbie Ann Williams at some point or, perhaps more likely, even his closest aides were never entirely sure that they could trust his protestations of innocence."
Tommy McIntosh's extraordinary early parole, says Milton, suggests that the Clinton camp "struck a deal with 'Say' McIntosh in exchange for his silence."
Weeks after his son's release, McIntosh said that his bargain with Clinton was sealed right after the election, telling the Washington Times:
"Those who question my credibility should ask themselves, 'If there was no deal, how did this happen?' How did my son get out of prison 18 years before he was eligible for parole?"
Tommy McIntosh later died in 2005, shot by his wife
http://sinsofmyfather.com/ You can read about in this web link and also about Bill Clinton's pardon of him in 1993.
Here is all about Say McIntosh, the "Al Sharpton" of Little Rock: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_%22Say%22_McIntosh
Clinton's son is named Danny Williams and was conceived of a
black prostitute, 21-year old Bobbie Ann Williams, in 1983.
Clinton paid Williams and tow other whores $400 each for a sex
orgy when Danny was conceived. He liked it so well that he paid
each of them a bonus of $50.
The orgy was held in his mother's house, about an hour from
Little Rock out the John Barrow Road. the three street walkers
and the governor of Arkansas were driven in a state limousine,
apparently by state trooper Buddy Young, who waited until it was
over, then drove them back to town.
The story is confirmed by Lucille Bolton, sister of Williams and
aunt of Danny. "There's no ifs, there's no supposes about it,"
says Bolton. Moreover, "Danny wants to get this story out into
the open," she says. Danny is now 14.
Both Danny and his mother, who, says Lucille, has kicked her
drug habit, still live in Little Rock. Apparently to throw news
reporters off the trail, a rumor recently surfaced that both
were in Australia. However, says Bolton, that's not true.
The story first saw the light of day in a small paper in
Georgia, "The Truth At Last", on September 15, 1992, when Danny
was 8.
Clinton's degenerate lifestyle is well-known to everyone around
him. "The Wanderer", a Catholic paper published in Wisconsin,
says that Clinton forced Gennifer Flowers to abort his baby in
1978. She has the evidence but the liberal press does not want
to print the story.
Gov. Bill was screwing and doing cocaine with street hookers. Probably has a son
by one. Also – does not use condoms
Bobbie Ann Williams, a Little Rock Arkansas street hooker, says she and Bill did cocaine together as well as having a foursome orgy with 2 other street hookers in the country cabin of Bill Clinton's mother back in the 1983-1984 – while he was governor. Clinton met her on the street while he was jogging.
Also, street hooker Bobbie Ann Williams, says that Bill screwed her without a condom – telling her he did not like "scumbags." Until I read that, I never knew "scumbag" was a word with multiple definitions: a) condom b) Bill Clinton c) Hillary Clinton. Bobbie Ann says she and Bill had sex on 13 occasions.
Recently, I saw Bill on TV touting his Clinton Global Initiatives, one of which is to end HIV/AIDS in the world. Bill remarked that abstinence was not enough, that young kids need access to and education about condoms. Juanita Broaddrick who Bill raped without a condom, Gennifer Flowers who Bill had a 12 year affair with, and street hooker Bobbie Ann Williams all say Bill hated condoms and absolutely refused to use them. Bill got Gennifer pregnant in late 1977 and he paid $200 for an abortion for her (performed in late January, 1978). He told Juanita after he raped her that he had had the mumps as a kid and was infertile so don't worry about getting pregnant. Bobbie Ann Williams says Bill sired her son Danny or "Danno," born in 1985 – which deadbeat dad Bill has never claimed or supported. Lucille Bolton, Danny's aunt, says the now young man, age 21, is definitely Bill's rejected son "There's no buts, there's no ifs, there's no supposes about it."
Street hooker Bobbie Ann also says that Bill screwed her when she was 4 months pregnant (!) with his alleged future son. Bobbie Ann said in 1992:
"I was still working the street into the fourth month I was carrying Bill's baby. And Bill got a special kick out of having sex with pregnant women. He said that pregnancy makes gals hotter.
When I told him that he was the father of my baby, he just laughed. He rubbed my big belly and said, 'Girl, that can't be my baby.'
But I knew it was. I just had this kind of woman's feeling that this was his child." – Bobbie Ann Williams
[Clinton Confidential, p. 179, originally in the Globe (2/17/92)]
Larry Patterson says that at on one Christmas – maybe two- Bill had the state troopers take Christmas presents to the home of Bobbie Ann and her child Danny (or Danno) Williams. Clinton has never submitted to a DNA paternity test to prove or disprove his alleged siring of Danno. Question, who do you think has more credibility: Hillary and Bill Clinton or a drug-addicted, street hooker?
Clinton's refusal of condoms and refusal to raise his alleged son is just another example of the incredible selfishness and irresponsibility of the Clintons. Hillary was, of course, covering for Bill at all times and using criminal secret police tactics to do it.
[Bobbie Ann Williams is not the only pregnant woman that Bill has screwed. On the night Martin Luther King was assassinated, April 4th, 1968, Bill's high school girlfriend – Dolly Kyle Browning was visiting Bill at college in Georgetown, Washington, D.C.. Dolly was already married to another man, a young mother of one child, and was at that moment 8 MONTHS PREGNANT with her 2nd child ! Sex freak Bill's reaction, according to Dolly? … he screwed her!! (Bill and Hillary: the Marriage, p. 75) Repeat: Bill screwed his married, 8-month-pregnant former girlfriend, Dolly. Also, player Bill was dating two other girls at that time at Georgetown.]
Link on Bobbie Ann Williams and wild Bill: http://www.comedyontap.com/presgirls/williams.html
When it comes to screwing women, Bill Clinton does not discriminate based on age, race, national origin, religion, marital status, condition of pregnancy, consent or availability of plastic protection. Bill is a narcissist who has no problem using or violating people. Hillary and Bill have no problem destroying people to keep the truth from coming out.

Oscar Peterson: Night Train
Happy-Go-Lucky Local (a.k.a. Night Train)
Oscar Peterson (piano)
Night Train (Verve 314 521 440)
Oscar Peterson (piano), Ray Brown (bass), Ed Thigpen (drums).
Composed by Duke Ellington (as "Happy-Go-Lucky Local").
Recorded: Los Angeles, December 16, 1962
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
In a recent interview, Diana Krall said that Oscar Peterson's Night Train was the album that made her want to be a jazz pianist and specifically made her want to play with Ray Brown. That Ms. Krall achieved those goals and much more only adds to this album's merits. Peterson seemed to hit commercial and artistic peaks at the same time, and the early sixties was one of those periods. The trio got tighter and more musical as the pressure for larger album sales increased from Verve, and sometimes the results were of the best trio in jazz playing dumbed-down songs to attract more listeners. While the worst offender was We Get Requests, Night Train has received its share of critical brickbats. However, the performance of the tune "Night Train" may be evidence that Peterson could balance the two factions without compromising either side.
Since "Night Train" is a blues, it would have been simple enough to just blow through a few choruses and call it done. But Peterson devised a marvelous arrangement instead, one so subtle that it's easily missed by casual listeners. After the opening theme choruses, Peterson slips into a 2-chorus solo. Then the theme returns, and we realize that all the while, the band has gotten softer and softer. This leads into Brown's solo, which is unaccompanied to start, and then adds, in turn, Peterson and Thigpen. When Peterson comes in for another chorus of solo, everything starts to build again. Peterson plays a boogie figure in the bass to build the intensity, and then the trio plays a simple but effective shout chorus and then goes back to the theme with a strong crescendo to nearly the end, with a traditional Count Basie tag to close the track. By using the basic elements of crescendo and diminuendo, and arranged sections to set off the parts, Peterson turns what could have been a throwaway into a minor masterpiece.

Left Behind is an exceedingly poorly made motion picture that alleges to offer a Biblically influenced approximation of what the so-called "End Times" might be like. The Left Behind novels, by Tim LaHaye & Jerry B. Jenkins, are only slightly better than the movie versions. Left Behind is less interested in telling a compelling story than it is in preaching a heretical denomination of Christianity. Yes, there are different ways of interpreting the Book of Revelation (i.e. preterism, amillennialism, premillennialism, postmillennial, futurism, dispensationalism). As propaganda, Left Behind probably works but as a feature film, it is a complete failure.
As mapped out by Bible scholars who use the Book of Revelation as their primary source material, the End Times are supposed to go something like this: First comes the Rapture, the event during which all of the true believers in Jesus Christ will be bodily assumed into heaven, leaving Earth to the unsaved. Next comes the Tribulation, in which mankind will be forced to endure a kind of purification by fire: the grueling and torturous seven-year reign of the Anti-Christ. Finally, Christ will return to judge the world, and life on Earth as we know it will cease to exist. (People have been predicting the end of the world since the dawn of mankind; so why should it be any different in the twenty-first century?)
Left Behind concentrates on the beginning of the End Times, detailing the Rapture and the rise of the Anti-Christ. Then, running out of time, it abruptly ends, stopping right in the middle with no sense of closure. Investigative reporter Buck Williams (Kirk Cameron), pilot Rayford Steele (Brad Johnson), and his daughter, Chloe (Janaya Stephens), are among those left behind when their friends and family members mysteriously disappear one night. As they try to discover what happened to their loved ones, the world's political system is thrown into chaos. Eventually, one figure–U.N. Secretary General Nicolae Carpathia (Gordon Currie)–emerges to offer peace and unity to the troubled planet. In addition to possessing a seemingly limitless wellspring of charisma, he can manipulate people's minds. Despite seeing through Nicolae, however, Buck unwittingly helps him in his quest for domination.
Left Behind's problems are almost too numerous to catalog, and they have nothing to do with its religious propaganda. No degree of suspension of disbelief will make the most outlandish events seem remotely plausible (such as the U.S. ceding control to the U.N. because the President and other government bureaucrats died or disappeared, or people accepting "radiation" as the official explanation for all of the disappearances). The public reaction to the Rapture, which could represent fascinating material, is sketched out in broad, unimaginative terms: mass hysteria with no psychological depth. The protagonists are almost cartoonish. Not only are they weakly written, but the actors portraying them are ill equipped to give compelling performances. Why was top billing given to Kirk Cameron? Cameron wasn't that good as the smart-alecky Mike Seaver in TV's Growing Pains–his past baggage combined with a limited wellspring of talent effectively sinks any chance we have of accepting Buck as an interesting or believable character.
"Left Behind makes no bones about having been produced by Christian filmmakers for a Christian audience. That is its only hook. No profanity. No sex. Virtually no violence. And to fill the vacuum left by the extraction of those motion picture staples, we have lots of running around and bad dialogue. (Someone actually says, 'Never wait for opportunity to knock. Yank open the door and drag it inside screaming and kicking.') Not to mention people who act like they know they are pawns in a screenwriter's predictable script. And there are the shoddy production values that make the movie seem like it was originally designed to premiere on television," said critic James Berardinelli.
Left Behind is nothing more than an unintentional comedy. Left Behind is a good title, in more ways than one, because that is exactly what happens to Kirk Cameron's propaganda films at the box office. Film critics James Berardinelli and Scott Weinberg inspired this great article. THE END

Members of a secretive subculture are invading the sleepy seaside resort
of Whitby every halloween in
increasing numbers. Among the happy-go-lucky hordes of perfectly innocent
goths clad in bright
pinks and
yellows lurks a minority of stern-faced "indiviuals", invariably wearing
black. The only other distinguishing features these homogenised masses posses
are their video cameras.
I observed a small clan of camera men hanging around Whitby's premiere
art gallery. Distracted
by the presence of the Mayoress, whom these n'er do wells were attempting to
interview, the goths were allowed to
enjoy their
exhibition in peace. In an open gesture of tolerance, her ladyship
was heard to comment that she had no objection to the weekend's activities, so
long as none of them were of a "cabalistic" nature.
Taking heart from such a warm and welcoming gesture, I resolved to
engage some of these perhaps misunderstood people in conversation. I
didn't have long to wait, I soon spied an isolated pair of them in the
Elsinore. Although looking lost and cut-off from their fellows, the
relaxing gothic atmosphere put them at
their ease, and made them quite approachable. The larger of two wore a dark
sweater and combat trousers and was brandishing a camera. Just why did
they wear so much black ? Slightly defensive at first, he merely muttered
something about the "pockets being usefull". Determined to break the ice, I
persevered. Did they worry about being associated with arcane and satantic
influences such as
John Birt ? At this the
smaller one nodded vigorously;
"yes, definately, and Blue Peter presenters too".I was made somewhat uneasy by their morbid fascination with nocturnal events at the abbey, they seemed eager to learn of any dark goings on, perhaps secretly hoping for an invitation. I was happy to set the record straight and disapoint them. Still, both claimed emphatically to have enjoyed the weekend, even though their predatory habits had prevented them from drinking. One even toyed with the idea of returning next year to get a "goth's eye view". Sadly, they then started to take an unhealthy interest in the photographer's digital camera. I made my excuses and left, still hopeful that this marginalised fragment of society may one day gain the acceptance of the good people of Whitby.

10.19.2009 / Drake Storms in to Omaha, Posting by Seth, FNBO Employee
What is there to do on a cold and rainy night in Omaha? How about heading outdoors to watch a soccer game? You would probably say that the other 750 fans in attendance at the Creighton vs. Drake game and I have taken a few too many headers in our day. The men of the Bluejay soccer team will most likely be looking forward to sunnier days as well, as they came up on the losing end of the 1-0 match Wednesday night at Morrison Stadium on the Creighton University campus.
The Bluejays have dominated Drake up to this point, going 20-1-6 all-time. But this Drake team made the trek west on I-80 carrying a No. 19 national ranking and the momentum of a four-game unbeaten streak. Though, having never won in Omaha, a victory was by no means a given for the Bulldogs.
Both teams were unable to produce any goals in the first half. The ball skipped around on the slick field and made getting decent shots off extremely difficult. Conservative play was the rule, as the squads took their time adjusting to the wet conditions.
Drake struck quickly in the second half, only two minutes in, with Thomas Ostrander heading in a ball off of a Creighton defender. That goal was all Drake would need. The Bulldogs were content letting Creighton do the attacking the rest of the half and bunkered down in their defensive third. The Jays pressed and had a golden chance in the closing minutes, but came up empty when defender Chris Schuler came crashing into the box and put a header just over the crossbar.
Creighton will need to rebound quickly. They're on the road for the next four games, starting with a stop at Evansville on the 17th. And, take note Bluejay fans! Your final chance to see the team play at home is one to look forward to – No. 4 UCLA comes to town on Saturday, October 31st at 3 p.m. So grab your costume and help put a little fright into the Bruins.
Did you brave the elements on Wednesday night? Post your thoughts on the game.

This is torture
At it's finest state
My blankets are warm
And there's too much on my plate
I feel happy
I feel dull
The fireplace is glowing
My wineglass is always full
Fix your hair
I think I will sleep under the stars tonight
I've got everything I need
Right here
Take a walk take a trip take a stand
With me the air's much better
When you can breathe
The sky's more blue when you can see
I feel happy
I feel content lying on a rock
Sleeping in a tent
One thing I regret is not bringing me TV set
Not to watch or admire
But to throw in my dying fire
I think this spot will do
This is omnipresence in its priest form I've got everything I need right here
This is omnipresence in its priest form
I've got everything I need right here
I thought I had it all

An Open Compiler for OpenACC
- Details
- Written by Douglas Eadline
- Hits: 2015
From the Spinal Tap "-011" option working group.
Creating code for GPU accelerators is often not a simple task. In particular if one wants to convert an application to run on GPUs, the resultant code will often look very different than the original. If the application were a typical HPC code it would probably be written in Fortran, C, or C++ and use OpenMP or MPI (or both) to express parallelism. A GPU version must be rewritten to use either NVidia CUDA or OpenCL. For the average HPC user, this process can be rather daunting and present a fairly high barrier to GPU use. Fortunately, many of the popular applications (e.g. Amber) have been ported to use NVidia GPUs with great results, although they will only run on NVidia hardware. What about other open applications or user generated codes?

Duration: 1hr 31min
When a fierce storm strikes Malio Island, the islanders ask their gods for a miracle. What they receive is an ornate canoe complete with a little baby boy. All that accompanies the child is a beautiful carved hair comb. The Malio chief decides that the baby boy is a gift from the gods and declares that the baby will be raised as his son. He names the boy Tama and pronounces him the future chief of Malio Island. The chief's wife is extremely jealous of the boy, who has taken the place of their son, Pua, and she begins to spread her resentful poison. As she gossips with the other women, the chief's wife claims that the child came from the god of mischief and blames Tama for all the misfortunes that befall the island. Soon the islanders follow her lead, and the boy is blamed for illnesses, failed crops, and no fish. The chief denounces the boy, and soon Tama is passed from family to family, finally ending up in the poorest house on the island. It is here that Tama comes to know Mahana and her father. Mahana is despised by her father and the islanders-they all see her as troublesome and undesirable. Tama, however, finds that she is a true gem and the two outcasts form a strong bond. When Tama finally has the means to escape the island, he leaves with a promise to one day return for Mahana. That promise is where is adventure begins...

You see, everyone has a story to tell, everyone has reason to there being, and every one has a purpose.
Because in this world full of life and opportunity, everyone is important and amazing in their own way.
And with that people tend to feed off each other, giving one another ideas, meaning, hope, inspiration and all sorts of other positive qualities.
In the long run, everyone story is precious no matter what the value.
so with that, allow me to tell you my story...
I like to draw stuff, it so yapple dapple.
and that is my story.
I hope you found it inspiring and gave you a new out look on life.

During a period involving four business days during which most private businesses will be open, the courts in Los Angeles will be closed for three of those days, adding further frustration to those already concerned about the court closures and layoffs that are certain to make justice harder to come by in Southern California.
The Los Angeles courts will be closed this Friday, February 12, 2010 for Lincoln's birthday. Most private businesses, for better or worse, do not observe the Lincoln holiday and will be open. The courts will also be closed for President's Day on Monday, February 15, 2010. Although President's Day is observed to a greater degree than Lincoln's birthday, and most schools, post-offices, and banks will be closed, most private businesses are open on President's Day. Then, the court employees will come on back to work on Tuesday, February 16, 2010, but not for long. They will close down the courts in Los Angeles, again, on Wednesday, February 17, 2010, for the monthly court closure.
Hence, during a period covering four days when most private businesses are open, the courts will be closed during three of those days. When the monthly court closures were established, it most likely made sense to those who created the program to select a closure date such as the third Wednesday of each month. It likely made sense to have a uniform time for the closure so that everyone would be able to ascertain with great ease when the next closure was going to be in a certain month.
It must now be clear, however, to everyone that it is not in the best interest of Los Angeles for its courts to be closed three out of four business days during a court closure week. Therefore, the time has come to alter the court closure schedule such that it can occur during the third Wednesday of each month except in weeks where there are already court holidays. As a result of such a modification, the courts will almost always be open at least four days a week instead of having too many two or three day weeks which simply is not conducive to there being a judicial system that is open and available to the public.

College Hockey:Niagara Dominates Wayne State For Sweep
LEWISTON, N.Y. — Niagara shouldered the burden of high expectations this weekend in convincing fashion, defeating Wayne State by a 3-0 margin and earning its first four-game sweep of the Warriors in school history.
Saturday's stat sheet did not reveal the entire story of Niagara's dominance. Missing from the numbers was the Purple Eagles' ability to come out on top in the battle for loose pucks that sprang offensive opportunities and, just as importantly, nullified the Warriors' attack.
"That's when you know Niagara is playing well," Purple Eagles coach Dave Burkholder said. "We won the faceoff battle and when we are finishing our checks, winning the puck, we are a very hard team to play against."
Niagara centerman Barret Ehgoetz, who pushed his team-leading goal total to 21, concurred.
"That was the best collective effort by our defense tonight" Ehgoetz said. "As forwards, we made a conscious effort to backcheck more, rather than look forward and try and to get on the rush."
Perhaps sensing a few ghosts in the Niagara machine, Burkholder tweaked his lineup from the night before, inserting more experienced upperclassmen, and reshuffling his second line.
The changes paid immediate dividends when senior Nick Kormanyos scored only 31 seconds into the contest after he put back a rebound from an Andrew Lackner slapshot.
Ehgoetz scored shorthanded a few moments later. The stat sheet reads "unassisted" on that goal, but credit Joe Tallari's dogged pursuit of the Wayne State defender for setting the stage for Ehgoetz as he pounced on the Warrior defender in front of the net and roofed the puck past Marc Carlson.
Carlson would surrender one more goal in the second period to Niagara forward Justin Cross, but then became the game's most dominant player as he stonewalled the Niagara attack.
During a difficult second period, in which the Warriors seemed to lose their composure, Carlson was tested on four consecutive power plays. The Wayne State netminder turned away a total 32 shots and his gutsy performance drew praise from Warrior head coach Bill Wilkenson.
"The bright spot in tonight's game was the performance of Marc Carlson," Wilkenson said. "The penalties killed us tonight, and wore us down We're young, beat up, and it takes its toll when you don't score goals."
Jeff VanNynatten earned the shutout for Niagara. Burkholder put his goaltender's effort into perspective: "I thought Jeff played a mistake-free weekend Maybe he wasn't tested as much but timing is everything and he made some huge saves tonight
With the wins, the Purple Eagles narrowed their gap with CHA-leading Bemidji State and gained momentum heading into next week's crucial series against Alabama-Huntsville, which trails them by two points in an increasingly tight conference race.

Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Game Design
His primary research interests are in educational games, best practices in game design and development, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
He is the CEO of Fay Games, a game development studio primarily focused on games for educational impact. He previously co-founded the undergraduate game design and development program at Quinnipiac University, where he was an assistant professor of game design and development. Before beginning his academic career, Ira was a senior game designer at Electronic Arts (Pogo.com), where he led Pogo iPhone game development and released several top web games. Prior to Pogo, Ira worked at Z-Axis (Activision) on X-Men 3, at Maxis on The Sims 2, and at Walt Disney Imagineering on ToonTown Online. He is also a published board game designer.
This course is designed to give students a strong introduction to computer programming, with an emphasis on programming games. No prior programming experience is necessary. As the title reveals, this course particularly invites self-identified women, though all interested students are of course welcome! We will consider (and hopefully impact) the current gender imbalances in the professional world of game development. The course will include guest interviews with notable women in game programming. By the end of the course, successful students will be able to write programs of moderate difficulty and use C# and Unity to implement computer games. As a course that can provide a solid foundation for further computer science courses, this class will expose students to variables, conditionals, loops, functions, comments, and object oriented programming concepts. For more information, see irafay.com/classes.
Students will work in interdisciplinary teams to create four digital games during the course. Each team member will serve in one of several possible roles: Programmer, 3D artist, 2D artist, Game designer, Audio designer, or Project manager. The course will use Unity 3D as the game engine, which is used in many professional game development projects. Students who have taken this course previously are welcome to take it again, since each game development experience is unique. For more information, see irafay.com/classes. Prerequisite: An evaluation/passing grade from at least two courses in your chosen game development discipline (programming, art, game design, audio design, project management).
In this course, students will play, analyze, and design many non-digital games to deepen their understanding of game design. We will make good use of the Hampshire Game Library! Assignments will be project-based and are intended to provide both crucial practice of skills and useful additions to a portfolio. The course will include several smaller assignments to analyze existing games and design new games, as well as a semester-long project to contribute to an existing, ongoing, real-world game development project (such as the D&D miniatures game with 1500+ existing cards and stats). Frequent critiques and playtests will increase students' ability to give and receive thoughtful feedback, which is a key skill for game designers. To facilitate the substantial game playing and analysis that will be required outside of class hours, there is a reserved lab time from 7pm - 10pm on Mondays. Students are strongly encouraged to keep this time free in their schedules. Prerequisite: At least one semester of game design.
In this course, students will improve their digital game development skills and portfolios by working as a specialized member of a small team. As a prerequisite, students must have expertise in one or more game development disciplines, including 3D modeling, 3D animation, 2D animation, painting, programming, audio design, game design, or project management. The professor will provide game direction, but students will be responsible for developing all aspects of the games themselves. Students will pitch ideas for games and will work on games of their choice. Students will be encouraged to develop games using Unity and make the games available for free. All assets and code generated in the class will be released to the public domain. Prerequisite: At least two completed courses in a discipline or disciplines related to game development(programming, art, design, audio, management, etc.).
Students will design, develop, and publish a digital game in a single semester under the leadership and guidance of Professors Fay and Perry. Though the professors will provide team leadership and game direction, the students will be the ones creating the game, including game design, concept art, storyboards, modeling, rigging, animation, shading, lighting, compositing, game programming, tool programming, project management, audio design, marketing, and publishing. We will likely develop the game using Unity and ideally publish to the Apple App store, the Android Marketplace, and possibly more platforms as well. We will make a free game, and release all assets and code generated in the class to the public domain. Students are expected to be skilled in at least one discipline relevant to game development, listed above. Prerequisite: At least two semesters of course work in a discipline or disciplines related to game development (programming, art, design, audio, management, etc.).
In this course, students will learn the fundamental concepts of game design and how they apply to games, any designed experience, and our daily lives. Students will be exposed to many different types of games and explore game design themes across genres. Students will also develop and hone personal game design skills through practice and more practice. Frequent critiques will increase students' ability to give and receive thoughtful feedback, which is a key skill for game designers (and for life). Assignments are project-based and intended to provide both crucial practice of skills and useful additions to a portfolio.

Parents learn lessons on bullying
- From: Herald Sun
- November 15, 2012
BULLYING at school often involves parents, with teachers as the victims.
But, as reported in today's Herald Sun, school principals may soon be fighting back, with unruly parents asked to meet codes of conduct.
Principals will be given the right to set rules for parents under new State Government guidelines.
Parents have been abusive, violent, disruptive and threatening.
Others have used foul language in front of students or harassed staff with constant emails or text messages.
In one case of parent aggression, a school was put into lockdown.
A code of conduct for some parents is a lesson they need to pass.

Jesse respected dedication and hard work. That is probably why I didn't get to know him as well as I would have liked. It is also why we worked well together. While working with Jesse, I developed an appreciation for the theory behind the science. This is sometimes a hard thing to sell in some computer science circles; however, it is the correct approach and it is what Jesse practiced.
He was a private person, but he loved to sit and talk about a broad range of topics; and, he knew a lot about a lot of things. It was never all about computer science. Jesse enjoyed small gatherings where ideas flowed freely and the environment was comfortable. My wife and I really enjoyed the receptions he held from time to time at his home. He was comfortable in the kitchen and I remember him wandering around talking with his guests in his socks — we were all probably in socks.
Jesse was a leader — that is obvious. I see his leadership more in how he related to and supported people; how he listened to their ideas and integrated that into his decision making. He was kind; he made time to talk with you if you came by to discuss something; he was respectful of everyone. He also made things happened.
Although Jesse would probably think it a little thing, he always was available to help my wife while I was deployed for a year after graduation. That meant the world to her and I am grateful to him for that support.
Jesse respected the position of professor; he looked the part. I will always remember the bow tie and his sharp wardrobe. In a world where casual is the norm, Jesse made looking good cool looking.
I am most grateful that Jesse Poore gave me a chance; he provided an opportunity when I was making a huge life direction change; he was instrumental in getting me back into the field of computer science, a field I love. I credit and will remember him for doing that.
I first met Jesse Poore in 1971 when I was an undergraduate at Florida State University; he had just joined the math faculty and become Director of the Computer Center. FSU did not have a computer science department at that time, but a few computer science courses at the senior or graduate level were taught in the math department. Jesse taught several seminar-style courses on CS theory (inspired, I think, by the strong theoretical orientation of GaTech), for example, in algebraic automata theory. I took all of his courses, which gave me several valuable skills.
First, all his courses were built on the research literature (no predigested material from textbooks), so we had to learn to cope with that. In a typical class, one or two students would be expected to present a theoretical topic that they had studied in depth for a couple weeks. (I remember that I had to do Tarski's cylindric algebras and Halmos' polyadic algebras.) Presenting your topic was something like an oral exam. Jesse might stop you at any point and say, "I don't believe that, why don't you prove it?" So you would have to come up with a proof on the spot. Or he might say, "Do you think that result could be generalized?" If you said Yes, he would say, "Go ahead and show us," and expect a proof of the more general result. If you said No, then he would expect you to exhibit a counter example. So we got very good at reading critically, exploring proofs to understand every detail, and anticipating his open-ended questions by thinking beyond the published results. On the other hand, he didn't worry too much about grades. I remember that at the end of one quarter he said, "I haven't thought about grades, so unless you object I will just give you the same grade I gave you last quarter."
At some point Jesse began to ask me from time to time to cover his class, which was a very valuable experience for me. So on a Wednesday or Thursday he might say, "I am going to be out of town Friday and I would like you to teach my class. Here is what I was going to cover." And he would hand me a couple of research papers or a book with a bookmark. Then I would have a day or two to learn the subject well enough to be able to present it and answer questions about it. In this way he taught me to quickly dive into a new subject and find my way in it, which has been a valuable skill throughout my career.
Thanks to Jesse, I applied to GaTech for grad school, but although I was accepted I decided to go to Purdue instead. I lost touch with Jesse over the years, although I ran into him at GaTech in 1984 at a software engineering conference, where I was presenting a paper. In 1986 Jesse contacted me, informing me that he was the new head of the computer science department at UTK. He told me about his plans to build the department and invited me out to see what he was doing. After my visit, I was so impressed with his plans that I decided to leave my tenured position and come here.
Many of us shared Jesse's belief in and passion for theory-based methods as the path to quality software, as well as his frustration with the software industry's failure to adopt those methods. My favorite quote is the first line of an article he wrote a few years ago: "There is a silver bullet. Bite the bullet!" (This one may only be appreciated by software engineering insiders, who know about Fred Brooks' paper, "No Silver Bullet – Essence and Accidents of Software Engineering.")
The next one is a good example of his generosity, diverse interests, and Kentucky heritage. For the past few years Jesse organized "SQRL Week," where current and former students and collaborators from UT and the Fraunhofer institute in Germany got together to discuss research activities during the preceding year. In 2010, Jesse announced that Thursday would be dedicated to a "Statistics Field Trip". This turned out to be a trip to Keeneland race track – Jesse's treat. This was clearly not Jesse's first visit to Keeneland. We had lunch at the track cafeteria where jockeys, trainers, etc. eat; and he provided an impromptu seminar on how to read the racing form. Surprisingly he did not have (or at least reveal) a mathematically sophisticated betting system. His advice to me: "Bet on the jockeys, not the horses."
I wouldn't be working on my PhD if not for Dr. Poore. I'll never forget how he dropped in on me at work one day and said, "You shouldn't be here - you should be getting your PhD!" His advice changed my career and my life. Thank you, Dr. Poore!
I am an international student in EECS, in PhD program of Computer Science. My name is Shuang (Susan) Gao. What I wish to share is the my experience in the spring semester of 2010. At that time I took Dr. Poore's class, cs525.
I was the only one international student in that class. Almost all of the assignments of that class are writing and presenting. It was my second semester in U.S., I was still not good at English writing and speaking. This class became a really difficult one for me..... I knew that my writing is much worse than other students whose native language is English, but I found Dr. Poore kept encourage me by spending time on my awkward writings. On every of my weekly paper writing, I always found many kind and helpful comments on margin of papers. Through these writings, I made a obvious progress. At the time when we were going to start final project of that class, I felt I am overwhelmed and I thought about giving up the hard one and return to pickup a simpler topic. When he got to know it, he spent time to talk with me, gave me great encourage and helpful advices on the project.
Dr. Poore let me know what a great supervisor is. I wish I could take this chance to show my deep respect for him.
When Jesse Poore served as CS Department Head, he liked to hold big parties at his home. These were grand affairs, open to faculty, staff, students and their children. There was food, drink, games, and even a campfire. I remember that on one occasion Jesse stood out front, in costume, greeting each visitor as they arrived. He was all decked out in white coat, white shirt, white pants and black string tie. He was quick to point out that the general idea was to play the true Southern Gentleman. Anyone who told him he looked like Colonel Sanders was given a stern lecture.
Personally I think Dr. Poore is the best advisor, mentor, and boss you could ever work for. He always makes sure that graduation is a student's first priority; is extremely supportive, encouraging, helpful, and generous as you go through this path.
He treats everyone that works for him with kindness and respect, and values his relationship with students. When I graduated, he paid to produce two hardbound copies of my dissertation, one for myself, the other with my signature for him. He keeps one signed copy for every student that did PhD with him.
At the time of my graduation, he was not able to attend my graduation ceremony, but years later when he knew that it had been my regret, he specifically arranged to hood me on the stage at another time.
He values theory and bases the software engineering research here on a solid mathematical foundation, which I think is perfectly right. He nurtures his students while giving them enough freedom to explore and to grow up intellectually.
My seven years working for him has been a very pleasant experience. There are many unforgettable and happy memories. He has influenced me in many profound ways. Even in his last days he still thought for me and did all he could to help me start my new career. The place he has in my heart and in my life is incomparable.
I owe my thanks to him. In my heart he forever has a very special place. I cherish our relationship, and cherish every moment we have spent together for the rest of my life.
I had the upmost respect and admiration for Dr. Poore. While acting head of the computer science department in the late 1980's, he also taught a CS course or two. I was a student in one of them. In that class we covered the "black box" methodology of software design. Each and every time that I have designed a software module since that time, I remember that class.
I knew Dr. Poore for 26 years, dating back to his first days at the University of Tennessee. I was a beginning professional in the early years so he was Doctor Poore to me for many years; later he told me a great deal about his time in Europe and I referred to him as Herr Doktor; only in the last few years have I finally been able to make myself call him Jesse.
There are countless stories and conversations I could relate from those many years. He remained in academe the entire time but there were many changes in his life and academic duties; I switched through teaching, research, corporations and self employment, multiple times. Since the shock of his passing I have gone over our conversations in my memory. What I think remarkable about my recollection is that I do, in fact, remember so much. Except for my family, I doubt I remember nearly as much from any other acquaintance as I do from speaking with Jesse. There was almost no small talk.
I have to say that there is no one I admire as much for persisting in the academy and for reaching out into the community--and giving true value back to both the entire time. I especially remember a conversation about passion. He couldn't understand how I could live on almost nothing while volunteering huge amounts of time and effort to causes I believed in and I couldn't understand why he did not retire earlier and leave behind the many obdurate problems of academic and political bureaucracies. His work ethic and his dedication to the institutional environments that had sustained his professional life were exceptional.
He was certainly a private person, but I also know he was very proud of the large part he played in the lives and relationships of many people--his mentor, Harlan Mills; his students, his colleagues and his staff. Most recently, he sponsored a comprehensive online collection of Dr. Mills's publications that has attracted substantial world wide attention and made that intellectual content much more accessible.
Jesse was a genuine advocate in both the academy and the community for opportunities he thought should be pursued. At the same time, he was a shrewd judge of capacity and the political realities on the ground; he expected a great deal from the people and groups he supported and he did not suffer fools at all. In accomplishing his work, he was focused and thoughtful; he could also be, as his editor Laura Buenning terms it, irascible when confronted by needless or mindless obstacles. Now, being buttoned-down--in meticulous attire and bow-tie-- and irascible is actually quite a trick, but it was uniquely Jesse's style to be so.
Dr. Poore, Herr Doktor, Jesse--I think there is no greater good than to be a good person while accomplishing a great deal. In my book this is the highest compliment I can give to anyone. Jesse was not a simple man--and the problems he attempted to solve were certainly not simple--but he was, simply, a good man. I am proud and grateful to have known this good man in a small slice of his life.
Jesse was my teacher in grad school, my thesis advisor, the person who launched my career, a mentor, a longtime colleague, an advocate, and a loyal friend who would help me anytime, with anything. I met him when he came to UT in the late 80s, and we had 25 years of adventures.
He believed in me more than I believed in myself. He thought I could do anything. Sometimes I didn't have the slightest idea how to approach the projects he asked me to take on, but he had complete faith that I would figure it out and do something great. He trusted me with all kinds of high-profile jobs, and as a consequence, my professional growth curve was practically vertical.
Jesse was one of the most hard-working people I've ever known. His work-related emails were sent day and night, weekday and weekend, on holidays or anytime. You really had to draw the line with him or you'd end up working just as hard as he did! His hard work has resulted in a legacy of tremendous accomplishment, both personally and through the work of the many students he developed into productive professionals.
Jesse was bold. He took risks. He didn't really regard his bold initiatives as risky, though. He just set his sights high, and went for it. He worked at the level of tide-turning strategy, and more often than not, he succeeded. He thought perfection was possible, and he thought we should all strive for it. He didn't have much time or patience for people who were not going to do something important and strive for excellence. You would never find Jesse Poore watching a mindless TV show or window-shopping in a mall. He believed in spending his time on things that mattered.
In Jesse's later years, he began to pursue some new interests. Personal fitness, art, reading for pleasure, nutrition – he began to relax a little, and make new friends. I was so happy about that. I tried to interest him in my passion for animals, but that wasn't his thing. He had enjoyed his dogs in the past, but he didn't want the everyday responsibility anymore. I admired him for taking that responsibility seriously. Too many people think you can just leave a dog in the back yard.
Jesse was truly a good person. He was not critical. He did not seek revenge. He did not harbor negative thoughts and feelings about people. He respected individual differences. He respected other people's choices and didn't feel that he had the right to impose his own views on others. As time went by, our interests diverged somewhat, and I wasn't as willing to spend my time on technical work. He completely accepted my choice, and never acted disappointed.
If I had to pick one quality about Jesse that, to me, describes him best, it was his generosity. He was generous with credit, with opportunity, with trust, with respect, with time, with money, with things, and with friendship. Jesse did not view life as a "zero sum game." He did not make things about "us vs. them." He thought there was plenty for everyone. All you had to do was earn it. And he would help you.
I will miss him every day. But I will also try to go forward with all I learned from him. I hope he is "up there" or "out there" somewhere, watching all of us who loved him try to live up to the inspiring example he was. I am very, very grateful to have known him.
I remember fondly the day that I, unscheduled, came into his office, bow tie in hand and said "Can you show me how to tie one of these?" Without hesitation he stopped working and took the time to show me the way to tie one perfectly.

Well, at least we won't be bored. Plenty of news to keep us thinking.
Some of those headlines will likely prelude some dramatic days. No end of Euro problems in sight.
Keep buying gold.
rarely bored here at ZH. always something to stimulate the inquisitive mind.
erin attracts the creepy types like flies, doesn't she?
I think because she looks like she "provides" if you know what I mean, possibly UTR (Under the Radar).
Well she looks like a rental. I can see how he got confused.
france must've pushed the forward-looking guillotine manufacturing statistics back to december.
that's the one to keep a head's up on.
just buy the euro and dont listen to all these negative articles that dont amount to anything.
I'm going to wait for a bit.
It won't burn as well in single denominations. Need to wait for bricks of the stuff before the people of Europe can use it to heat their homes this winter.
Thanks Tyler.
Fine with me, the song remains the same. Buy low, sell high. More ups and downs simply means a better X-mas.
Not Euro specific, but let's also keep in mind that November 18th the SuperCommittee announces that it reached no agreement and the word Sequestration will dominate headlines for a week or so.
Yep, market afternoon ramp up in process. Again.
why bother to go through all this drama to have the markets go higher. heres an idea: automatic increases in the s&p pegged to inflation regardless of what happens. no matter what. every year, automatic stock market increases. this way, we can alleviate the stress of these unnerved global leaders, not worry about subversive manipulation, everybody happy!!!!!
Will there be chaos, anger or hatetred... Who know!
Nov 7th: critical vote in the Italian House of Representatives, the government may miss a couple of votes and fail to get last years accounts approved.
endless caravans of clown cars full of finiMiniz!
i see where they plan to launch the EFSF within two weeks of next monday. now, would that be the original? the revised? next year's? the one to be approved? the one to be determined? the one contingent on the 50% haircut? the 21% haircut? the one germany needs to approve? or, some other one?
What is with the up move
If you want to understand this market, just study the Vancouver stock exchange history. Pump and dump penny stocks....a slimy pyramid scheme with all the trappings of a real equity market.
It will not end because greed is so powerful, but the equity markets will become less and less "real".
so the cannes meeting achieved the square root of fark all, btpbund spreads at all time wides and confirmation that france and italy are in recession with germany on the cusp of recession via pmis and the euro is back to nearly flat on the day
So, G-pap "wins" and resigns?
Is there a "con" in confidence?
I love how the market rallies on bad news these days... When is this shit going to end...
Not to mention the US congressional super commitee doing or NOT its budget cut thingy in Washginton!
The super committe did exactly what it was suppose to do: Get the debt ceiling passed by deferring the decisions until later as well as hang ea few scapegoats out to dry. Boehnr and Reid are patting themselves on the back. They got the debt ceiling raised. They let a subgroup of people make the impossible decisions. If the super committe cuts (which they wont), Boehner and Reid will be the first to say "dont look at me, i didnt cut any thing". If the super committe fails to cut, boehner and reid will say, "it wasnt up to me, the cuts were automtic since the committee didnt do its job. Re-elect me and we will do something about this before it kicks in and hurts real americans..."
You know it's bad when even Krugman is calling Europe on their bullshit: http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/11/04/not-so-super-mario/
I wish Nigel Farage was eligible to run for US President.
OHHHHH...too good to be truth... (may be one of his girlfriends is going to convince him to do it)
All that's happening is predictable, as there are 7 stages that every major economy goes through. Those who know how it works profit & massive wealth is transferred to them. Several months ago I learned this information from a millionaire whose site I found & am sharing it with everyone I know.
His free video
"How To Create Incredible Wealth in Today's Economic Crisis"

Hope this info helps everyone as much as it has me.

good article. I agree that this action packed movie was the best one I seen last year
By Neal Simons
I really did like Thor: The Dark World when I first saw it. I still do in a lot ways. It expands upon the Norse mythos established in the previous film, Thor, and adds more action to the mix as well with some very good performances from Anthony Hopkins, Tom Hiddleston, and Chris Hemsworth. However, Thor: The Dark World is ultimately nothing more than filler until the next Avengers movie.
The major problem with Thor: The Dark World is that it's too simplistic and small in scale, which is very weird considering it's a movie that chronicles the exploits of the Norse god of thunder. Thor must stop the Dark Elf Malekith, played by Christopher Eccleston, from activating a super-weapon that will plunge the nine worlds into eternal darkness. While this sounds like an epic god-like tale, it's whittled down by the fact that most of the action takes place solely in London and the villain is mostly forgettable and uninteresting. Malekith is supposed to be one of Thor's most dangerous foes, second only to Loki, and yet neither is his presence all that imposing, nor his personality all that deep. It is a waste of talent for the man who played the Ninth Doctor on Doctor Who, and a waste of potential to add another truly menacing villain to the Marvel rogues gallery.
Aside from that, it's not that bad. The absolute stand-out performance in the whole movie is Tom Hiddleston as Loki. His character is complex and scheming, and he gets the best lines in the film which he delivers perfectly. Thor also uses his hammer mjolnir more often than he did in the last film, which leads to some more visually stunning action sequences. Nevertheless, Thor: The Dark World just doesn't feel like its own thing. It is a cinematic appetizer to the main course that will be Avengers 2: Age of Ultron, which is even more apparent from the sequel-bait that is thrown into the ending. Thor: The Dark World is a fun, decent movie as long as you can deal with the fact that it is not on par with The Avengers. It is simplistic, forgettable, but nonetheless fun.
good article. I agree that this action packed movie was the best one I seen last year
