Welcome to ENBIS
Welcome to the website of the European Network for Business and Industrial Statistics (ENBIS), a platform connecting individuals and organisations, interested in theoretical developments and practical applications in the field of business and industrial statistics.
Please note that individual membership in our network has always been free while there is an annual membership fee for our corporate members.
Although our network aims to be a virtual platform, we also believe in face-to-face networking. That is why we organize an annual Spring Meeting and, traditionally every September, our Annual Conference.
In 2013 the Annual Conference of ENBIS (ENBIS-13) took place in Ankara (Turkey). The event at which we celebrated the International Year of Statistics was as formidable as all our past annual conferences; for example ENBIS-12 in Ljubljana (Slovenia) - you should view the ENBIS-12 Video! For the 2014 Annual Conference, ENBIS-14, the participants travelled to Linz (Austria). The 15th Annual Conference (ENBIS-15) took place in Prague (Czech Republic) - you can see the group photo of participants above.
In 2015 and 2016, the Spring Meeting took place in Barcelona (Spain). The 2017 Spring Meeting is scheduled to take place from May 28 (arrival in the late afternoon) to May 30 (departure in the afternoon) at the Schlaegl Monastery in Austria. The topic will be Predictive reliability and maintenance with big and complex data.
ENBIS-16 took place from 11th to 15th September, 2016, in Sheffield (United Kingdom). ENBIS-17 is scheduled to take place from 10th to 14th September, 2017, in Naples (Italy).

Ball of Foot Pain, otherwise known as Metatarsalgia, is a condition typically caused by overuse. Pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot are common among athletes or anyone who engages in high-impact sports. Others can experience ball of foot pain due to high heels or ill-fitting shoes.
Increased pressure on the ball of the foot can be caused by constricting or high-heeled footwear. Usually this pain comes on gradually over time. Using a shoe with a wide toe box and good support can be helpful, as well as using inserts to relieve the pressure on the ball of the foot.
Another condition known as "spread foot" can occur in the metatarsal area, and that is caused by weakened metatarsal bones, which cause the toes to spread. Again, properly-fitting footwear, low heels, and a wide toe box can alleviate these symptoms.
Shoes with good support, a wide toe box, and low heels are best if you want to lessen the symptoms of Metatarsalgia or avoid them entirely. Other products that can help include:

Excellent 4.4 /5 from 69 reviews
The motel was clean and well equipped. Our room had a lovely deck facing the beach, but it was further from the open ocean than I expected. The motel is within walking distance of Hokitika. Hokitika itself is a lovely interesting town and well worth the stay. We were very pleased with this accommodation.

For example, the method has been used to show that general buy viagra winnipeg intelligence, or g, is highly heritable (Plomin & Crabbe, 1998).

Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin) is a new drug for acute myeloid leukemia that causes SOS. To date only a limited number of studies have reported on the liver toxicity from Mylotarg. The incidence and overall mortality vary in the few published studies, but the case-fatality rate appears to be high.
Among 132 patients treated with Mylotarg, 23% had bilirubin elevations, mainly 1.5–3 times the upper limit of normal (68). It was not stated in this study whether patients with hyperbilirubinemia had other criteria for a diagnosis of SOS.
1. They are produced in large part by 240 Laskin and Gardner macrophages in response to inflammatory stimuli and are thought to play a prominent role in initiating the inflammatory response. The overall outcome of the inflammatory response depends on the balance between levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines that are generated in the liver. Proinflammatory Cytokines IL-1 and TNFα are low-molecular-weight multifunctional proteins that induce a number of both distinct and overlapping functions. Both IL-1 and TNFα stimulate the production of chemotactic factors and upregulate expression of cell adhesion molecules, thus promoting phagocyte margination and emigration to sites of injury.
Whereas some of these promote the inflammatory response (e.g., IL-1, IL-4, TNFα, interferon-γ, TGFβ, chemokines), others exert antiinflammatory activity (e.g., IL-3, IL-10, IL-13).

Hello Shadilami, and welcome to Seven Forums.
Without the recovery key, you're pretty much out of luck on being able to access the HDD without taking the HDD to a expert data recovery shop.
If you did step 6, you could use it to regain access to the HDD.

I'm sorry to hear that. Without the recovery key or password to access or unlock the removable drive, you're out of luck. You might be able to recover them by having a professional data recovery service attempt to, but it most likely will not be cheap if they are able to.
The HDD could be formatted to be able to use it again, but you will lose what is on it.

Hmm, I'm not sure why you don't see the BitLocker context menus.
You might run a sfc /scannow command to see if you may have any corrupted system files responsible.

Developers looking for a Drupal-native shopping carts now have two choices for e-commerce: Long-time leader Ubercart (now ported to Drupal 7); and Drupal Commerce, a new system written from the ground up by some of the former members of the Ubercart team. With two options to choose from, which project gets it right?
When I first started working on e-commerce sites, choices for Drupal-native carts were limited to two packages: the e-Commerce project and Ubercart. Based on the development activity and large number of supporting modules, I became an enthusiastic supporter of Ubercart. In fact, it's was my first choice for ecommerce systems in general, since it brought so much to the table: Here's a scalable e-commerce solution using Drupal's same node-based architecture, theming system, and user management routines while offering a cart with a barrel full of sophisticated customization options. If you needed both a CMS and an ecommerce solution, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better combination than Drupal 6 and Ubercart.
Over the years, though, I've tempered my enthusiasm for Ubercart: While it's still good at handling the most common ecommerce demands, the project is not without its flaws. Its documentation can be thin, responses from the community sometimes slow, and chunks of more advanced features are sometimes left frustratingly unaddressed. None of this is helped by the project's home site which can be difficult to navigate if you're looking for quick answers to common questions.
But Ubercart is still the best game in town for Drupal 6, and it continues marching on — Ubercart 3 is a port of the project to Drupal 7, and there is a committed developer base currently at work. Lately though, the choices for Drupal 7-native shopping carts has gotten bigger, with the introduction of Drupal Commerce.
Commerce is an exciting entry to the Drupal shopping cart category written by some of the same developers who previously managed Ubercart. (It's lead developer, Ryan Szrama, was the former Ubercart lead.) Unlike Ubercart, Commerce is a Drupal-7 only module. While it's technically been in development since 2009, it wasn't entirely ready for production and it's only been wIthin the last few months that package downloads have gained momentum. Meanwhile additional support modules are rounding out the project's offerings, making it a serious option for new installations. So how do the two compare?
First, keep in mind that few carts satisfy everyone. Carts are tricky pieces of software to develop since they're expected to do so much — from customer management to shipping calculations to inventory control. At the same time, carts are often maintained by non-technical users who demand that systems are both easy to maintain, but endlessly configurable. While one might have a great interface, it may be horrible at calculating shipping. Another might handle thousands of SKUs, but be completely inscrutable to the inexperienced user. And don't forget, they have to be bullet-proof: There's real money riding on every page of a shopping cart so mistakes can be costly.
These wide ranging requirements would appear to give any Drupal-based cart a leg up on competing systems since flexibility is Drupal's bread and butter: Its modular architecture makes it flexible enough to handle almost any situation, and you'd expect a native cart would offer the same advantages.
Core Differences Between Ubercart and Drupal Commerce
Like Drupal core, both Ubercart and Drupal Commerce attack complexity through user-contributed modules. In fact, when you download either cart, you're actually downloading a suite of modules that work together to provide basic functionality. Exactly what's included in the core, though, is the biggest difference between the two packages.
While Ubercart delivers a lot of power in its out-of-the-box installation, Commerce aggressively strips its features down to the barest of bare bones. For example, new Commerce users might be surprised to find that it doesn't include a shipping module in its core, or even a basic payment gateway. To do either, you'll need to download additional modules.
(Lullabot posted an interesting podcast with lead developer Ryan Szrama (Sept. 9, 2011) where he explains this minimalistic approach: Create a stable core for the big functions, then let site builders add and configure as needed. It's the divide and conquer mentality applied to shopping cart development, and Drupal Commerce takes this much further than Ubercart.) Szrama writes more about this approach at the project's home site.
But this is just the start of the differences: While Commerce may be developed by members of the former Ubercart team, if you're expecting Ubercart, you might find the transition to Drupal Commerce jarring. While Commerce offers many of same structural elements as Ubercart (the store administration navigation structure looks familiar), Commerce changes the whole product data structure, creating huge differences in how products are both entered and displayed.
Products as Entities
Users who have already use Ubercart understand that it follows a more typical Drupal 6 data structure. Basically, products are nodes. That means entering a products in Ubercart is a little like entering a story, only there are more fields for product-related values like price and weight. Meanwhile, product variations (ie color, size, etc.) are treated as "attributes" of the main product, so if a product is green or blue, large or small, any option added to the product still references a single product node.
For end users this architecture is easy to understand: A product is entered once, and any additional options refer to the main product node. When you publish a product, it shows up on your website.
Commerce, though, uses Drupal 7's entity system and treats any options as a new, distinct products. So, if a merchant is selling a T-shirt in red or blue, these exist as two separate products even though they might be exactly the same in every other respect. This approach is a lot closer to how retailers who use traditional unique SKUs — Stock Keeping Units — operate. (It also better fits a database developer's perspective too, since technically this is a more abstracted approach to data structures.)
In fact, this single change might solve one of Ubercart's biggest weaknesses.
In that system, product variations (like color or size) were added as an "attributes" of the main product's node. Under that architecture, no matter how many variations a product had, these always referred to one single node in the system.
Unfortunately, this meant that many operations relating to custom options (like special tax or shipping calculations) were sometimes prone to errors. For example, inventory control was always an Ubercart weakness. You'd expect that preventing customers from adding items to their carts when there isn't enough inventory would be a core feature, but that issue was addressed through a patchwork of competing modules. (Can it be done? Yes. But most of the contributed modules addressing this issue were either limited or buggy, since they usually used client-side javascript that was inconsistent throughout the checkout process.) The point is, the architecture was far from perfect for merchants who have a lot of SKUs and need a rock-solid cart.
Commerce's system of unique products for every variation handles this scenario with much more sophistication. Using this structure, it's possible to create complex pricing changes, shipping conditions and inventory control for every product variation. But here's the catch: It also introduces a new level of complexity to the system that many users may find baffling.
Products in Commerce aren't traditional nodes. Instead, they're really just data units that store the unique information about each SKU. By default, these units aren't displayed on the site on their own. Instead, users have to create separate display nodes tying product variations together for display on the site. (A product display node handles the Title and Body text. It also collects information about product variations and displays them to the visitor.)
What all this means is that creating a product is actually a three-part process. Imagine a retailer selling t-shirts. The sizes are small, medium and large and the colors are blue and red. To achieve this in Drupal Commerce, a user follow theses steps: First, the retailer creates a 'tshirt' product type. (Fields for any variation are created at this step, so size and color options are added here.). Next, individual SKUs are entered for each possible combination of size and color. Finally, a new product "display" is created, which includes the title and body text. The separate SKUs you entered earlier are added here through an auto-complete field, much as you'd add taxonomy terms to a Drupal node. (Ryan Szmara writes about the process in the Drupal Watchdog.)
This is not going to be easy for non-technical users to grasp, at least not at first. Imagine a scenario where a retailer just wants to add a new color to one of their existing Tshirt offerings. To do this, they'll add a new option in the Tshirt product type color field. Then they'll add new SKUs for each additional size variant. (That's more work than they'd probably expect, but OK so far.) But consider this: If they then return to the public side of the site expecting to see the new option show up, they'll be disappointed. That's because before a product option can be displayed, it has to be manually added to the product display node. So before the product shows up, the user will have to return to the product display node and add the new SKUs through the auto-complete field in the node edit form.
Yikes, that's complicated.
In fairness, Ubercart's attribute system isn't especially easy either. In fact, while evaluating the newly posted Ubercart 3, I had to jog my memory while going through the steps of entering product options. This includes creating global attributes, then adding options to each global attribute, then adding the global attribute to the product. There are also extra steps needed to manage SKUs and stock levels, and if you're a merchant and forget to enter a new SKU number or inventory amount, you've traded complexity for the very real possibility that you'll be selling products you don't have in stock.
End-user Documentation
Both of these carts are big, complex projects that demand solid documentation for end users. To meet this demand, each maintains its own website for user forums, support and documentation. This isn't unique: A lot of projects have their own home pages. But shopping carts are special cases. There's real money on the line here, so its extremely important that when questions arise, both developers — and end users — are able to find the most current documentation, modules and patches as quickly and easily as possible.
That's why both of these sites need more work.
As a developer who's sometimes called to help maintain several Ubercart 2 stores, I dread visiting Ubercart.org, because it's just too difficult to find what I need. Technical documentation can be fragmented across multiple forums, support topics sometimes abruptly switch between versions, and the contributed module listings are poorly organized. At the moment, there isn't even the stub of a user guide for Ubercart 3. (As I write this, the "demo" link goes to White Screen.)
Unfortunately, it appears the Drupal Commerce team is using some of the same tactics. Forums still play too big a role in technical support, and the user manual needs to be re-engineered before it spins out of control. (Here's a great example: If you install Commerce through the recommended Commerce Kickstart profile, you'll be able to add test products to your shopping cart from the home page, but you won't be able to adjust the quantity until checkout. Why? Because no quantity field is displayed in teasers by default. This is easily done, but searching the Commerce site for an explanation for the exact steps to take is excruciating. Do we really need to scroll through user-contributed comments to understand basic configuration?)
All that said, Commerce does get a few things right: Team member Randy Fay has produced a library of instructional videos clarifying use for the ordinary user which is a very welcome addition.
Two suggestions would help each one right away: First, they both need to install a facetted search engine like Solr, or even Lucene as quickly as possible. While Drupal has a reputation for delivering decent search results compared to other open source projects, it simply isn't as good. In my book this isn't something for the "would be nice to have" column. It's an absolute requirement for these projects.
Next, they both need to completely re-architect the way they display documentation: When it comes to configuration, the last thing I want to see is a discussion. Instead, I want specific answers presented as concisely as possible. In short, what's needed is a user manual that's as easy to understand as an airplane emergency card.
I should point out that as I was writting this post, I exchanged emails with Ryan Szrama, and he mentioned that efforts are underway to redesign and update the Commerce home site. Ultimately, he said, the revisions may provide a documentation model looking more like StackExchange's for the most common support issues. This would be a very welcomed addition.
And the Winner Is...
So which solution is best? Drupal Commerce's advanced architecture and forward-looking integration with Drupal 7 make it a strong candidate for new merchants and more technically sophisticated users. It's core design offers an amazing amount of power for handling tax, shipping and inventory control, and it's backed by a strong team of developers who have years of experience writing Drupal carts.
But keep in mind that Commerce is a new package. So while it offers real promise, there's still a lot of work to be done. Payment gateways and shipping options are still very limited (At the moment there's is no integration of FedEx and USPS, although it's hard to imagine that these additions wont be offered soon.) Keep in mind, too that system management is currently far more complicated than Ubercart's, although the trade off in overall capabilities may be worth it. Finally, multiple modules are in development that aim to streamline the usability issues that may bother some users.
Meanwhile, for merchants with successful Ubercart stores who just want to migrate up to Drupal 7, Ubercart 3 may offer the path of least resistance, especially for those who don't want to learn a new product system, or cant spend the time (or development money) on a major cart migration. It's important to point out though that while Ubercart 3 does work with Drupal 7, some of the support modules available in earlier versions may not be ported to Drupal 7 yet. And while the overall system is somewhat easier to understand for casual users, merchants who've struggled with SKUs and inventory control may not find a solution in Ubercart 3.

Roasted Root Vegetable Salad
From "Portland Chefs on a fly fishing weekend: Recipes for food, drink, and cheer", By JEN STEVENSON, October 2012
Makes 4 servings
This hearty salad makes delicious use of autumnal vegetables like delicata squash, turnips and chanterelles.
- 1 medium turnip
- 1 small delicata squash
- 1 pound chanterelles
- 1 large bunch mizuna or spring lettuce
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh thyme
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 3 tablespoons wholegrain mustard
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- Pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon minced shallots
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Peel turnip and slice into thin wedges. Peel squash, remove seeds and cut into small cubes. Clean chanterelles with a soft brush and split by hand. Wash and dry the mizuna.
To make marinade: In a bowl or glass measuring cup, mix together the olive oil, chili flakes, salt, pepper, thyme and lemon juice.
To cook the vegetables: In a large bowl, toss turnips with 1/3 of the marinade. Place a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add turnips and saute until lightly browned. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Repeat with the squash. Place the sheet of turnips and squash in the oven and roast until tender.
To make the dressing: In a bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Add the shallots and allow to macerate for 15 minutes. Whisk in the olive oil until emulsified.
To serve: Just before serving, in a large bowl, lightly toss mizuna in just enough dressing to make it shine, not drip. Taste and add more dressing and salt and pepper if desired. Place mizuna on a platter. Toss the warm vegetables together and place on top; serve.

Aviation Safety:
FAA Needs to Update Curriculum and Certification Requirements for Aviation Mechanics
GAO-03-317: Published: Mar 6, 2003. Publicly Released: Mar 18, 2003.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4803
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The safety of millions of airline passengers depends in part on aviation mechanics--known as A&P mechanics--that are certified to inspect, service, and repair the aircraft's body (airframe) and/or engine (powerplant). The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) establishes the requirements to become certified as an A&P mechanic. Concerns have been raised in the aviation industry about having a sufficient number of A&P mechanics over the long term. GAO was asked to determine how many aircraft mechanics and service technicians the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects will be employed in 2010, and the reasonableness of that projection; the sources that supply and train A&P mechanics and the likelihood that they will provide a sufficient number through 2010; and what is being done by FAA and the aviation industry to ensure that the skills of A&P mechanics are sufficient to work on technologically advanced aircraft?
BLS projects that there will be about 184,000 aircraft mechanics and service technicians employed in the United States in 2010, an increase of 17 percent from the number employed in 2000. We reviewed the methodology and assumptions used by BLS to make the employment projections and found the resulting projection to be reasonable. A&P mechanics will continue to be supplied and trained by the civilian workforce, the military, and the 175 FAA-approved aviation maintenance technician schools. About 58 percent of the 47,500 A&P mechanics that were certified by FAA between 1996 and 2001 were trained in aviation maintenance in the military or on-the-job, and the remaining 42 percent attended FAA-approved schools. Officials of the major commercial air carriers anticipate a sufficient supply of A&P mechanics from these same sources through 2010, citing their ability to contract out work to repair stations and to adjust wages and benefits to attract the employees that they need. This latter approach is consistent with economic literature on labor markets, which indicates that most employers take such actions to attract and retain needed workers. Eleven of 15 participants on an industry/government panel we convened believe that employers may have difficulty hiring A&P mechanics in 2010. According to officials at major airlines, when such a situation has occurred in the past, their companies responded by raising salaries and improving benefits to attract the mechanics that they needed. FAA develops the minimum curriculum requirements for A&P mechanics attending aviation maintenance technician schools. However, the curriculum has not changed significantly in over 50 years. Industry officials believe that the curriculum is obsolete geared toward smaller less complex aircraft, and does not provide enough instruction on the materials and technology used on modern aircraft that transports the majority of the flying public.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In January 2005, FAA issued a revised Advisory Circular with new technology and curriculum changes for use by FAA-approved schools.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Transportation should direct the FAA Administrator to review the minimum A&P curriculum required for FAA-approved aviation maintenance technician schools and identify courses that do not reflect widely used aircraft technology and materials on commonly flown major commercial aircraft. These courses should be de-emphasized or replaced with courses that address current conditions.
Agency Affected: Department of Transportation
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In March, 2003, we reported that the required aviation mechanic curriculum at FAA-approved aviation maintenance technician schools was outdated and primarily geared to smaller, less complex aircraft that do not transport significant numbers of passengers and, according to many in the aviation industry, not relevant to most of the aircraft flown today. In particular, the stakeholders we surveyed indicated that computer-related subjects should receive greater emphasis within the current curriculum. Other courses and technologies suggested by some officials with the commercial air carriers that we interviewed include composites and repair of turbine engines. We recommended that FAA make changes to the curriculum, and in 2005, FAA issued an Advisory Circular with new technology and curriculum changes for use by FAA-approved schools. FAA is also responsible for ensuring that changes to the mechanics' curriculum are incorporated into FAA's certification exam. We therefore also recommended that FAA take steps to ensure that any changes to the curriculum are reflected in the certification exam to ensure that all candidates for the certificate meet the same standards. In response, FAA has made several changes to its publications in 2014 and 2015, and in October 2015 initiated a rulemaking to amend the regulations governing the curriculum and operations of FAA-certificated Aviation Maintenance Technician Schools to ensure that changes to curriculum can be made readily when needed and reflected in the certification exam. These actions will ensure that aviation maintenance technician students receive up-to-date foundational training to meet the demanding and consistently changing needs of the aviation industry.
Recommendation: The Secretary of Transportation should direct the FAA Administrator to ensure that changes to the A&P school curriculum are reflected on the mechanic's certification examination, thus ensuring that all candidates for the A&P certificate meet the same standards.

H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival & CthulhuCon, October 2016
Stuart Gordon at a Q & A session following a screening of the unrated director's cut of From Beyond. One observation Gordon made was: Republican administrations are golden eras for horror (but don't get any ideas). Saturday's events also included a dynamic live radio show presentation by the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society: Dagon: War of Worlds, with splices from The Temple, Dagon, and The Shadow over Innsmouth. And I caught some other movies and short films.

Rebel Without a Copernicus
In recent weeks, I watched, for the first time in its entirety the deeply accursed film of Nicholas Ray, Rebel Without a Cause. I saw a little of it on a videocassette once, which unraveled while the movie was in progress.
I was pleasantly startled to find an element of cosmicism, conveyed through astronomy, in the planetarium sequence, embedded in the James Dean vehicle.
What visions of Porsche Spyders and wind-up toy monkeys did Jim Backus have on the isle? "You're tearing me apart, Gilligan!"

It Can't Happen Here
Lately I've been absorbing It Can't Happen Here, by Sinclair Lewis. Noteworthy, among other elements, are the excerpts of the fictional, book-within-a book, "Bible" of the fascistic presidential candidate/ candidate- elect/ U.S. president, Buzz Windrip,
The Grasshopper Lies Heavy Zero Hour -- Over the Top, along with a few melancholy tones of landscape poetry, and a remote but resonant time, between the world wars, of fraternal organizations, Father Coughlin, and class conflict.

Transient Wings
Transient Wings, Western Half of the Columbia River Gorge
Loneliness, it's such a scraped affair.
Hawk jewels flowed sightlessly westward.
The reason of the excavation was to reveal deep layers in stony time.
Vast sutures of independence whorl chakra.
At the mountains of energy, float with your mind until lunar provenance enlightenment reached.
The polished immensity of the mountains, twilight ermine fanfare of the argent musk.
Train de Chirico like whistling spiders, grave robber polka spinster yellow ancient grove sad mossy-flamed farmhouse, Edelweiss rocking horse.
Hawk's wings, rotating like spiders,
Kites drumming over slough and grove.
Train rolls austere and limber,
Caboose like a tramp, twilight of gold.
Rubbish eye incantatory,
Snowy fields, untrodden, transient and flashing on the crest of the Cascades.

Away over down the floor, twilight. Brought and immense monument, closed eyes. Hedge, blue gathering, night and quiet.
Shaded edge of inner range, gold and snow. Crow on mead. Thick eyelids, garlands, whiteness, brooding over leagues of grey pines; sun waves across through grain fields, river, black bridge, flooded and stained paddies.
Pitted red stones, gilt and curved December leaves rolling down, massed and overbent rice, thunder, paws of fox, toothed muzzle open, bundled-twig broom, stacked splits beneath the raised house.

Collage: Guiteau/Garfield, by JF, 2016.
This was inspired by my recently watching the Murder of a President documentary on PBS, on the assassination of President James A. Garfield
by Charles Guiteau.
Garfield, Arthur, Harrison, and Hayes, time of my father's time, blood of his blood, life of his life, . . . were the lost Americans: their gravely vacant and bewhiskered faces mixed, melted, swam together in the sea depths of a past intangible, immeasurable, and unknowable as the buried city of Persepolis.
-- Thomas Wolfe (source)
I should re-read some Thomas Wolfe sometime. I always remember his description of his writing practice, using the top of a refrigerator as a desk.

William S. Burroughs Courses in Creative Reading
This web page drew my notice to these outstanding lectures, from 1979, at the Naropa Institute. "Time is everything" -- one hears the writer asking the students if they've seen Apocalypse Now yet, just then a fresh unknown quantity. Roll eyes -- "What do you mean by rotten ectoplasm?" A participant asked Burroughs. Organic material.. I can't hear you, what did you say. Hassan i Sabbah's reach extended all the way to Paris... Korzybski, Jane, and Paul Bowles; Crowley, Conrad, Julian Jaynes... The question is far too general.

Scandal: Essays in Islamic Heresy
I read Scandal: Essays in Islamic Heresy (1988), by Peter Lamborn Wilson, when the work was crisp off the shelf, around 1989. I unearthed my copy recently. A blurb on the back from William S. Burroughs reads: "Fascinating material on the Ismaili sect and on Hassan i Sabbah... the only spiritual leader who has anything significant to say in the Space Age." The work covered, among various topics, Sufism, mystical aspects of select Arabic and Persian poetry (i.e. "Eros and Style in The Interpreter of Desires,") and Javanese shadow puppetry. Wilson included some material about his journeys to such places as Afghanistan (when it was possible to travel there in relative safety), in the chapter titled "A Note on the Use of Wine, Hemp & Opium."
The volume also referenced the Yazidi sect. Such matters have a different resonance now than they did in 1989 or 1990 (although the 1970s and 80s had a number of bombings, hijackings, hostage-takings, indicating the tenor of events that followed). The period when I read the book was around the time of a brief and evocative truce of the world, when the Cold War ebbed, before the Persian Gulf War began.

"400 People and 400,000 Trout" : Doc: Then And Now with a Montana Physician
The description of a book as "high-spirited" is typically a good reason for me to read something else. Nonetheless, I was pleasantly unsettled after reading a few pages of Dr. R.E. Losee's Doc: Then and Now with a Montana Physician (1994). I am still reading the book now, after having first learned of it many years ago. Rather than some heartwarming chicken soup for the soul, the doctor delivered hardboiled, dry, earthy, unflinching prose, such as:
My first ambulance case was that of a man who committed suicide in his garage. The man had killed himself by directing the muzzle of a twelve-gauge shotgun against his umbilicus and then pulling the trigger. The crumpled, warm corpse lay supine, with escaping intestinal gas forming bubbles of blood and stool that exuded from his blown-apart shirt front.
And besides that, the doctor set his memoir in Ennis, Montana, a place with many links to my maternal ancestral line. Dr. Losee depicted several of my relatives, including my great-uncle Oscar Clark. He referenced Oscar's saloon, as well. The book is an excellent read.
Now ol' Doc Losee could smell death... Quien es?

H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival and CthulhuCon, 20th Anniversary
Hollywood Theatre, Portland, Oregon

"Sexuality and Lovecraft" panel
Photos by JF
On 3 and 4 October, 2015, I haunted the 20th anniversary of the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival and CthulhuCon, in Portland, Oregon. The first time I attended the festival, then at the 5th Avenue Cinema in Portland, was for its second annual run (at that time I was sure it would never last more than a few years). I have attended many of the festivals since.
During the weekend of the event, I wished that I had the ability to exist in separate locales. What I took myself to see was remarkable, though. I caught, among others, Scott Nicolay, Richard A. Lupoff (reading in his courtly manner a melancholy time-shifting story), David Barker, Adam Bolivar (wearing a vintage suit and hat), reading fiction and poetry in the small classroom in the Esoteric Order of Dagon hall (otherwise known as the Hollywood Senior Center). The compact space had the aura of a living room.
On Sunday, I witnessed a panel with S.T Joshi, Scott Connors, and Richard A. Lupoff, on "H.P. Lovecraft's editors," a sturdy crash course in the author's relations with editors. Scott Connors also spoke earlier on Clark Ashton Smith's artwork. At the "Sexuality in Lovecraft" panel, I mentioned the Lovecraft revision work (with C.M. Eddy) The Loved Dead. S.T. Joshi responded with something about the story still being disturbing today, and: It was banned in my home state of Indiana.
I marveled at Jeffrey Combs giving a dramatic reading of The Doom That Came to Sarnath. He also held forth on the making of, and impact of, Re-Animator, following a showing of the film. I also saw Cool Air, from 1999, followed by a Q&A from director Bryan Moore, and many other films and panel discussions.

Ice City of the Gorgon
Ice City of the Gorgon, by Richard S. Shaver and Chester S. Geier, in Amazing, June 1948. Cover painting by Robert Gibson Jones. I read the story a couple weeks ago; it was a tolerable sci-fi adventure, which drew on Greek mythology. The piece held the subtlest echoes of both the Shaver Mystery and At the Mountains of Madness.

Let's talk potato salad. Everyone knows it's good — there's a reason it's a summer perennial — but that doesn't mean it's good for you. Here's a crafty version that swaps in sweet potatoes for the more traditional white potatoes and loses the standard recipe's abundant mayonnaise in favor of a dressing high in flavor and low in fat.

Got your breath back yet?
Norwich and Liverpool treated football fans to a modern classic this afternoon. The Reds won the game 5-4 with a last-gasp goal from Adam Lallana deep into stoppage time.
Jurgen Klopp charged down the touchline to meet the midfielder as the Reds wildly celebrated the winner.
Klopp's men had found themselves 3-1 down at one stage, only to battle back and take a 4-3 lead. A goal from Sebastian Bassong looked like denying the Reds the points at Carrow Road before Lallana's intervention.
And Liverpool fans didn't half enjoy the victory. There will be a few sore heads tomorrow morning...
