The outing you have planned sounds nice, but maybe it would also be a good idea to suggest that your son invite a friend over for the afternoon sometime?

I don't have twins, but if I were you I would think hard about starting to institute special treats for when one gets invited out and the other doesn't- it could be the beginning of a beast. It is only normal that siblings don't always keep the same friends, and do the same things at the same time, especially opposite sex siblings.
. For the record, I LOVE having twins and I treasure their relationship with one another, I just find that they're growing up way too fast!
but everything has pros and cons
Treasure the one-on-one time with the other one! I agree with the poster about buying treats for the one not invited (because then keeping things even can get tricky). But doing something simple together with the focus on how nice it is just to have time together is the perfect solution.
We so seldom get one-on-one time with our kids.
but everything has pros and cons
Have you read Hold onto Your Kids by Dr Gordon Neufeld?
In this particular situation I think he would recommend that your DD see you socializing with her friend's mother. Maybe even create a ritual where you go inside with her, when you drop her off, to help orient her.

text: Drivers in Hancock and Ellsworth can expect some normally quiet railroad crossings to come back to life soon – which means approaching the crossings with caution. Officials with The Downeast Scenic Railroad say two crossings in Hancock and seven in Ellsworth will be fully active, starting Saturday. In Hancock, the crossings at Wyman and Washington Junction Roads will be affected. In Ellsworth, it'll be crossings at Beal Avenue: Main, Lincoln, Park, Birch and Davis Streets and the Ellsworth High School Crossing. Officials say to be safe, drivers should always approach an active crossing expecting a train.

For most of my life, I have considered myself a Jew. But the degree to which I have been proud of this has changed depending on where I was living at the time. I will start at the beginning. Arguably the least controversial place to be Jewish is Israel, which is where I was born and had the privilege to spend the first nine years of my life, in Jerusalem to be exact. Ironically, Jerusalem is the place where I have always felt the least Jewish. In comparison to the herds of black-wearing men I saw daily on the way to school or to my friends' houses or to the park, I didn't even want to be Jewish. I contrasted myself with the 'dossim'. It was just my perception as a child. They were the people that wanted to close down my school because they were against the education of autistic and non-autistic children together. They were the people that put down boards with nails through them on the road on Saturdays, which caused me to be late to my best friend's birthday party. To my understanding at the time, they were the Jews. I was no Jew. So much, in fact, that after moving to the Netherlands at age nine, I remember telling another girl with the same migration history as me that I wasn't Jewish, just Israeli.
In the Netherlands, where I moved to with my family because of my Dutch father, my sense of identity changed radically. All of a sudden I was a foreigner, and I never fitted in because of different customs and ideas. I was always the one that was asked about 'other cultures'. As a teenager, the last thing you want is to be the person known for their 'difference', especially in the context of the classroom where you are trying to make new friends. After a period of trying to fight against any possible reputation that differed from the standard, I started realising that the difference was actually a part of my identity. I was part Israeli, part Dutch. Nationality-wise, I was settled, although due to the major anti-Israel movement in Europe I wasn't always comfortable telling people both parts. At least I knew what I was.
There were no hareidim around in this little city in the upper corner of the country, so there was no need to disassociate myself from them, and in my teens I started identifying as a non-practicing Jew, a Chiloni. But that is a difficult concept to explain to the non Jews in the Netherlands. There was no Jewish community around, but if there was I am sure I wouldn't have been ready to immerse myself in it. I merely felt Jewish by heritage.
At the same time as my sense of cultural Jewish identity started gaining more ground in my sense of self, I started noticing a growing anti-Semitism in the Netherlands. 'Jew' was used derogatorily in scolding. During classes and in the media, teachers used Israel as an example of a terrible country with terrible people. Can you imagine what comments like these can do to a young, insecure girl? I remembered Israel as the place where I always had a lot of friends, where I always had fun wherever I went, and where I didn't feel attacked all the time for being foreign or having different ideas and traditions. I started believing that those people were right, and I must have had the wrong idea of Israel all along. At that crucial period when we are all trying to figure out who we are, the main characteristics of my identity were constantly under attack. As a true teenager, however, I started to rebel. I began to accentuate my Israeli identity, and later also my Jewish identity.
After high school, I decided I didn't want to stay in that country. It was too small for me, and I had plans to explore the world. Right after my 19th birthday, after having lived in Israel for 9 and in the Netherlands for 10 years, I moved to Aberdeen, Scotland, to get my undergraduate degree in Linguistics and Comparative Literature. I still wasn't comfortable telling people I was half Israeli, so I was a Dutchie. To people who I felt comfortable with, I told the rest. At the so-called fresher's '"fayre'', where all the societies present themselves to the new students, I found out there was a J-soc, a Jewish society. Because I was new and wanted to meet other people, I decided to join. At the first meeting, however, about five people showed up, and none of them was actually Scottish. Apparently, there are hardly any Jews in Scotland, or at least in that part of the country. Though the group didn't meet very often, I enjoyed celebrating Hanukah and Purim with fellow students. My Jewish identity went from non-practicing to culturally practicing. I still couldn't do without bacon, though.
Half way through the year I got into an exchange program, and I was to go to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for my second year. At first I was mostly excited because it is close to Chicago, the city of Home Alone, The Untouchables, and, of course, Chicago. When I arrived, however, I found out about Chambana's humongous Jewish community. Through movies and TV shows I learnt about Jewish Americans. In almost any rom-com, there is a Jewish character, and they are mostly portrayed as perfectly normal people. That was very new to me, because to my knowledge, Jews outside of Israel were always portrayed as ultra-orthodox, odd, annoying. But the Jews in these American movies were normal people with normal jobs with normal families, who just happened to celebrate Hanukah instead of Christmas, just like me.
Fairly quick into my first semester abroad I got introduced to Hillel. I hadn't heard of them before, but it is a worldwide Jewish campus organization, that actually started at the exact university I am studying at. This particular chapter is called Illini Hillel. There, I went to a Friday-night dinner, and my whole world was changed. More than a hundred people showed up to this dinner, and to every dinner, every week. It was a full buffet style dinner, and it was completely free. I didn't know that was even possible. And the very first moment there I realised that the people there were my kind of people.
Besides the Shabbat dinners, I slowly learnt there were more opportunities to eat. There is a weekly Lunch & Learn, where we discuss topics of Judaism while noshing on amazing kosher pizza. There are Israel discussion groups, with pizza again. On Saturdays there is both Lunch and Seuda Shlishit, on Sundays there is a bagel brunch. Basically, it's a fantastic place for the student who is short on money and doesn't have a lot of time to cook but still wants to get some nutrition. I have to say, the food was initially what drew me to Hillel, but it's not what eventually made me stay. What made me stay was the atmosphere, the friendliness, the teachers.
I realized that people can be both Orthodox and progressive, which made me a lot more willing to explore Judaism in a religious way. I learnt more about what it means to be Jewish in one semester in the US, than I did living in Israel for nine years. To me, to be Jewish is to learn, and to want to learn further. What else is the Talmud for? The root of the word even means 'learning'. We should never be satisfied by what we know, but should always want to supplement it with more. Curiosity is the key.
Since I was at Hillel every Saturday anyway, I decided I might as well keep Shabbat, which I have now proudly done for a few weeks, and I love it. On Friday afternoon, I know that for the next 24 hours, I won't have to study, because Saturday is my day of rest and I can go to Hillel and spend a relaxing day with friends while observing my religion; and food, of course. I hope that the friends I have made at Hillel will stay my friends for a very long time, because they are wonderful people and they were there during this defining time in my life when I figured out I really am Jewish; culturally, by heritage, and religiously.
American Judaism is a thing unto itself. The idea of a so-called "Jewish American Princess" fascinates me. Stereotypes are often negative, but in this case I'm happy there even is a stereotype for a Jewish girl. There are no Jewish stereotypes in Scotland or in the Netherlands. People have only been exposed to the same stereotypes that were regarded as reasons for killing six million people less than a hundred years ago. What I mean to say, is that in the US Jews have managed to establish a different identity than the old one. They have moved on, and people know about their existence. Most people have "that one Jewish friend", or "that nice Jewish family around the corner". Kipas can be worn to classes without fear. In Europe, those identities are masked. Sure, some people are Jewish. But only in the comfort of their own home. Outside of it they try to blend in with the crowd, not to cause too much attention. It's like we're back in the 1940s, isn't it?
What I am trying to say is that although I am not fully there yet, I am very close to establishing my own identity, but it has been a tough road so far. I have learnt that there is nothing about being a Jew to be ashamed and I have Illini Hillel to thank for that.
So wherever you live, cherish your heritage; especially if you are living in one of many countries who are showing increasing signs of everyday anti-Semitism. Don't escape it by denying your identity because you come from a long line of thinkers, learners and criticizers, and you have a damn good reason to be proud of it!

Two years after forming at the end of 2004, Phantom Limb's progress was derailed when singer Yolanda Quartey fell ill.
When she regained her voice six months later, the band eased her back in with a series of low-key acoustic rehearsals which completely changed their approach, as they accessed a more intimate, emotionally potent style of country-soul music. Quartey is a phenomenal talent, drawing on gospel, soul and country inflections to produce a range of effects: on "Withering Bones", her flatted blue notes combined with the country-blues backing creates a sound akin to Mick Jagger on Let It Bleed, while elsewhere, the dark strings and vocal elisions of "Spring Flowers" bring to mind Jeff Buckley. She can lay it on thick – both "Playing With Death" and "I'll Never Be The Same Again" are too overwrought – but for most of the time she's confidently between downcast and distraught, sketching emotional turmoil in sharply observed details, like the acknowledgement of maturity in "Good Fortune": "The arch of a shoulder, the touch of a hand/You got older, and learned to be a man". The band, meanwhile, display sensitivity, illuminating the blue shadows cast by organ and piano with subtle glints of acoustic and pedal steel guitar, building up a mantra-like power on "The Hard Way".

ARH (99) Chicago, Illinois | January 16, 2015
It definitely takes a certain personality and mindset to enter this establishment, but if you fit the bill, its well worth it. This place is the picture of tacky dive bar, but its warm and welcoming instead of dark and depressing. During Christmas season the walls and ceilings were covered, almost haphazardly, with cheesy decorations, but in a goody and charming sort of way. Theyve got an average tap selection (dozen taps mixed macro and craft), and with rotating $5 pint specials, its not a bad deal. The atmosphere and beer selection is a welcome reprieve from the "bro" vortex that this block of the city always threatens to fall into. Its tough to say how knowledgeable the bartenders were, but they were definitely enthusiastic, high energy, entertaining, and could at least give an idea as to the taste of a given beer. I wouldnt necessarily say its a destination for beer, but if youre caught in this area ...

Crap. After getting a couple of comments saying they tried the same thing, and it didn't work for them, I went back and tried it myself. And it turns out it doesn't work. I think I had tried it with some media that I had already transcoded to WMV without realizing it. The reason it doesn't work is actually quite simple: The managed assemblies aren't pure IL – they're IJW images (lame-speak for "they contain some native code") so they're hard-tied to the platform they're shipped on. I also tried copying the 32 bit version and running them, to no avail. Ugh. Perhaps this will inspire folks to port some of their codecs? Heck, all I really want is FFDShow for x64, and I'd be happy…
UPDATE: FFDSHOW is available for x64 🙂 Still waiting for CoreAVC for x64… Scratch that: I really do prefer VC-1 and WMV. Transcoding takes a long time (at high quality) but the results are great…
Let me paint a scenario for you:
- Because the DVD was just sitting there in your Vista Ultimate box, you installed x64 Vista instead of x86 Vista.
- One of the only reasons you installed Vista to begin with is because the Vista Media Center product is much better than the old XP based Media Center.
- You'll even tolerate the fact that the XBox Media Center Extender doesn't work with Vista (Options: buy an XBox 360, or have an XP MC running somewhere in the house [cuz XP MCE doesn't run on Virtual PC, even just to serve to an extender] – grrrr….)
- You have a number of home movies taken before you paid attention to the fact that WMV is a great container & codec, so there's 3 years worth of home movies in DivX form.
- You open up Vista Media Center and start watching recent home movies – they look great!
- 2 weeks later, your wife opens up Vista Media Center, and calls you at work to tell you that all the home movies of your oldest daughter don't play!
- You go home, launch each of the 70+ home movies from the command line (cuz you're a command line junkie) and they play just fine
- You assume your wife must have had network problems or something, so you tell her they seem fine
- 3 days later, your wife calls you at work, tells you that she CHECKED the network (while she is no longer an employee of MSFT, and has spent the past decade interacting with children more than lead developers (which have a large amount in common), she is astonishingly technically savvy because she is forced to endure your own techno-centricity, bless her soul), and that you're either smoking crack, lying, or magic, because she still can't watch any videos of your oldest daughter from the media center.
Here's the problem: That cool 10 foot media center user interface? C#. UI code in general, because of the whole 'when am I actually done with this resource' aspect of UI code, seems to like garbage collection. I don't know if they use WPF (which looks pretty impressive – I've been messing with it a little, lately), but it's 99% C# code. C# code, by default, is processor agnostic – binaries produced by the C# compiler are flagged to run on ANY cpu. You can take identical binaries and run them on AMD64, x86, and yes, even IA64. And they work fine, in all 3 situations. However, if this managed code tries to use any native binaries on the machine (say, some DirectShow filters, for example), it can only use native binaries for the CPU type it is running on. Which means Media Center is running as a 64 bit app, and can only access the 64 bit codecs available on the machine. No ffdshow, no XviD, no DivX, no, not even any IV32. No problem, right? That's what corflags is for! "corflags.exe <assembly> /32bit+" – bzzzt – wrong answer. Windows Media Center, as part of the OS installation, is covered by a whole host of things to prevent people from screwing it up. In summary: You can't flag the Media Center binaries as 32bit because they won't even load (curse you, code signing and system file protection!).
There is a way to make it work, but it has the unfortunate side effect of making ALL managed code run as 32 bit. ldr64 is a utility that is included as part of the 64 bit CLR that does a single scary, system wide thing: it makes the managed loader think it's running on a 32 bit system, even when it's not. That's right: ldr64 setwow makes your entire computer think, for managed code, it's a 32 bit system. And it works pretty well. Don't do this on your SQL Server or anything, but my Media Center likes it much better when ffdshow is available to be used to show movies of my daughter back before she was losing molars, reading Harry Potter, having sleep overs, and generally being independent enough to make me feel far older than I actually am.
But wait, you say, weren't you smoking crack, lying, or perform some magic that made it work when you tried those media files from the command line? Nope – I was using WIndows Media Player, which, even on Vista x64, is a 32 bit native application. So it was loading 32 bit ffdshow and happily displaying my home movies to my heart's content.
One other minor note: I do find it slightly disconcerting that there's a flag to say IL is 32 bit only, but nothing to indicate that it's 64 bit only. There are plenty of things you can do in managed code (I've been told even verifiable managed code) that can force your code to be 64 bit only, or 32 bit only. The fact that you can only tie it one direction seems slightly sad to me. Oh well – unless you need the address space, the 64 bit managed platform isn't a really compelling platform, currently (okay, the extra registers are nice, but managed code uses pointers like they're char's, so the working set of most managed apps is tremendously higher when running as a 64 bit app, than as a 32 bit one)

Ozzy Osbourne and Zakk Wylde Reuniting for Tour
Ozzy Osbourne will reunite with his old guitarist Zakk Wylde for a tour this summer.
Ozzy Osbourne will reunite with his old guitarist Zakk Wylde for a tour this summer.
If things had worked out differently, Zakk Wylde could have ended up joining Guns N' Roses in the '90s.
Metallica's Robert Trujillo reveals in a new interview his key for dealing with bandmates and says he was careful not to cross Zakk Wylde and others.
Never one to hold back a good story, Zakk Wylde recently dished the dirt about his former boss Ozzy Osbourne having performance issues. And we're not talking about onstage.
Anchoring the band, as always, is former Jimi Hendrix bassist Billy Cox.
The singer would like to reunite Pantera, with Zakk Wylde filling in for the late Dimebag Darrell.
A custom-made guitar belonging to Zakk Wylde has been found less than two months after it was stolen.
Zakk Wylde had a guitar and vest stolen in Chicago last night (March 14).
Several rock stars discuss their favorite scenes from 'This Is Spinal Tap.'
Next month, Black Label Society founder Zakk Wylde will add radio host to his resume. 'Wylde on Sports' begins Sept. 4 on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio, channel 87 on XM and channel 210 on Sirius Premiere. The weekly talk show will find the longtime Ozzy Osbourne guitarist answering phone calls from fantasy football players nationwide.
Axl Rose and Guns N' Roses continue to surprise fans with unexpected additions to the set lists of their American tour. Last week in Indianapolis, Black Label Society's Zakk Wylde joined the band to perform a pretty heavy version of AC/DC's 'Whole Lotta Rosie.'
Ozzy Osbourne will lead a parade of peers roasting his long-time former guitarist Zakk Wylde at Guitar World's first ever rock 'n' roll roast taking place on Jan. 19, at the Grove in Anaheim, Calif.

SOCPROG is a set of programs which analyses data on animal associations. Data usually come from observations of the social behaviour of individually identifiable animals. Associations among animals, sampling periods, restrictions on the data and association indices can be defined very flexibly. SOCPROG can analyse data sets including 1,000 or more individuals. Association matrices are displayed using sociograms, principal coordinates analysis, multidimensional scaling and cluster analyses. Permutation tests, Mantel and related tests and matrix correlation methods examine hypotheses about preferred associations among individuals and classes of individual. Weighted network statistics are calculated and can be tested against null hypotheses. Temporal analyses include displays of lagged association rates (rates of reassociation following an association). Models can be fitted to lagged association rates. Multiple association measures, including measures produced by other programs such as genetic or range use data, may be analysed using Mantel tests and principal components analysis. SOCPROG also performs mark-recapture population analyses and movement analyses. SOCPROG is written in the programming language MATLAB and may be downloaded free from the World Wide Web.

A circus
Poem by: Aaron Crowley
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
I step into a circus
First time in my life
Though I am forty two, too old for this
Yet I find the gate has closed behind me
So I play along
Thinking it can't be that bad
Sooner or later the gate will open
So I first walk
My steps making no noise
Even though there is clearly
A hard marble floor under me
But I push away the thought
Just a trick on my mind
I walk
And I see nothing in front of me
Just darkness surrounding me
I'm probably lost
I'm probably dreaming
Though a voice in my head
Tells me that
That's what everyone says
I sit and wait hoping someone will come help
I wait for years and no one comes
I start weeping
And with no idea where I want to be going
I stumble forward
Step by step
Not caring what happens
I'm probably going to be trapped forever
And just as I finish that thought
There in front of me
Flashing lights and upbeat music
I smell warmth
I taste music
Yet it's all blurry
I can't make out where I am
It's probably just an illusion
So I turn and leave
And I hear a scream
Right in front of me
A high whining shrieking
God horrible screaming
And I find myself walking back
And when I find the blurry vision
The screaming stops
And it isn't so blurry anymore
Ive been starving and thirsty for years
And shadows hand me food on a silver platter
I am grateful and greedy
I take more than my share
And I find no more food
No more lights
No more music
Just the darkness again
Will I never be rid of this pain
I deserve more than this
I am better than this
I won't just weep here
I won't walk anymore
With my newfound strength I run
And the screaming starts again
But I take no notice
I will get where I want
Though painful it won't hinder
My speed my progress
Im nearly there I feel it
I find myself by a big tent
The famous big tent
Theres always a big tent at a circus
I run toward the open flap
And the tent collapses
It crumbles
And it falls
And I fall with it
I find myself in darkness
Walking through a noiseless
Marble floor
Back at the beginning
I sigh and continue
On my tiresome journey
To nowhere
For no reason
All because I got trapped in the circus
I guess I just wasn't ready.

News: Teachers banned from using red ink to grade tests because it "upsets kids"
Teachers told they must not use red ink for marking homework in case it upsets pupils
22 April 2013
Teachers at a secondary school in London have been told they must not use red ink when marking homework in case it upsets pupils.
The move was condemned as "political correctness gone wild" and ministers were forced to deny the Government issues guidelines on the colour of teachers' pens.
Tory MP Bob Blackman took his concerns to parliament after a teacher in his Harrow East constituency informed him the secondary school had banned staff from using red ink.
He told MailOnline: "A teacher contacted me and said I cannot believe I have been instructed by my head to mark children's homework in particular colours and not to use certain colours.
"It is all about not wanting to discourage youngsters if their work is marked wrong.
"It sounds to me like some petty edict which is nonsense. It is absolutely political correctness gone wild.

Oh, fer fuck's sake...ReplyDelete
Poor little pussies, um I mean, darlings.ReplyDelete
Oh my word! Such lunacy! I wonder what color of ink is acceptable. Next they will say they can't give any grade lower than an A because it would upset the kids! Hahaha!ReplyDelete
What's going to become of these precious over-protected darlings when something really upsetting happens in their world? Just madness run amuck! OMG!ReplyDelete
It's on the red ink that's the problem, folks. It's the fact that all these precious little snowflakes are told they are less than fabulous and capable of achieving their dreams. Their little self-esteems, so fragile and the product of severe helicopter parenting, just can't take the notion that they need some form of correction.ReplyDelete
I'm willing to bet that most of the parents in this school are going, "Oh, for fuck's sake...use whatever fucking colour you want for the swotty little bastards. It's why I bloody send them to school and not to some fucking prep school! Gordon Bennett..."
I really should get a Master's in British Swearing...
It's not just for kids. The last editorial job I did (a couple of months ago) I was asked NOT to highlight corrections and changes in red -- blue was "more kind." M'kay. Weenies.ReplyDelete

City analysts believe the most likely option is that the company puts itself up for sale. More than £500m was wiped off the company's stock market value after BT revealed that Marconi was not one of the firms it would be using for its network renewal project. Marconi had invested huge amounts of money and effort in the project and described the decision as 'devastating'.
Weekend reports claim that the company is looking for prospective buyers in Europe, the US and the Far East and has hired Morgan Stanley to find a partner.
About 25% of Marconi's UK business comes from BT, including a £90m a year deal that has three years to run. But the company's long-term prospects hinged on winning a major share of the BT infrastructure project. Even if Marconi now finds a new owner, it said it would need to review the numbers of people it employs.
Marconi currently employs 4,500 people in the UK and 5,500 overseas. Today it said that it would consider what level of staffing it needed. In a statement to the Stock Exchange, Marconi said the details of this review would be released in due course.
'The company clearly recognises the need to refocus its business in the light of BT's decision and recent trends in the global telecoms equipment market. In addition to this, management is reviewing the resource and headcount in each of its activities, particularly in the UK and will announce shortly the result of this review together with the associated cost savings and level of headcount reduction.'
Union leaders fear as many as 2,000 jobs could be lost as a result of BT's decision to award eight of Marconi's rivals work to equip a £10bn overhaul of its network. Marconi, which has worked to restructure its businesses after near collapse in 2001, has operations around the country, including Livepool, Basildon, Coventry and Beeston in Nottinghamshire. The company's research and development activities are thought to be at most risk of closure.
Marconi is due to report full-year results in two weeks' time. It said the figures will be in line with forecasts. The company still has net cash of about £300m but its share price remains a cause for concern ? it lost almost half its value to close at 261.5p.
Trade and Industry Secretary Patricia Hewitt, meanwhile, is understood to have told the company that there is 'no prospect' of a Government bailout to help Marconi through its current difficulties.

The Color of Equality
What if the world was a place of total peace?
*Note* This is just a first draft and a novel I *absolutely will finish so please, please critique. The harsher the better, but please be constructive. For every problem that you spot please offer ways you think it could be fixed or improved.
In my house, all is quiet. For it not to be quiet would be a sin.
"Alexandra, you should go to school. You're late," my mother whispers.
I stare down at my plain white sneakers, the same color as the rest of my clothing. The same color as my world, I realize, as I look around our living room. Everybody's house is part of this pale regime - the color of equality.
"What's the point?" I whisper back. It sounds more like a hiss. "All they teach about is our utter equality and peace. It's so boring and we just learn the same thing over and over again."
My mom's eyes narrow. I've crossed a line.
"You will go to school. To not do so is to not be fair to others, whom have to go to school every day. We should not even be having this conversation. It isn't peaceful."
Frowning, I know she's right. I should not disrupt the peace, even in our own house.
"Your father will drive you."
"Why?" I can't help but ask. "Not everyone has their father to drive them."
There aren't any buslines. Everyone has a standard four seater car. No car is better than the other. And they're all white, of course. No car is bigger than another because all families are almost exactly alike- At least one parent and always two children.
"Death cannot be helped. Now go."
I grab my white backpack and walk out to the car, where my father is already sitting. Though almost everything is constricted, our looks can't be helped, and I think my father is quite regal looking- a straight, flat nose, dark green eyes, and orange hair. I love his hair, and as I get into the car I can't help but brush it with my fingers. It's the only thing with color in my home.
Unlike his, my own hair is a pale blonde, inherited from my mother. However, I have his eyes, which seem striking with my equally as pale skin and lips. The only other noticeable feature I have is a smattering of dark freckles across my nose.
"This is your stop," he says, smiling. "As your chaffeur I shall escort you to your door, if you wish?"
I can't help but smile as I open the door.
"No, I'm fine. You have to go to work."
"I'll pick you up at three, then."
I shut the door and he drives away. I turn and face the huge previously white, but now gray with grime, building in front of me.

I lived in Glyn-Llan (Penny McKay) 1 of 6 girls. I loved spending my summer days down the Dimbath, building dams so we could swim and build forts. We would take a picnic and off we'd go all day and our parents never worried about us and they knew we'd return when we were hungry. I also loved picking blackberries and going to the bluebell woods. I went to school in Nantymoel and took the Stanton buses. I also loved going to the dance hall in Pant-y-awel. Since then, my sisters and I have all scattered around the world (Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, New Jersey and Canada) but I still try and go home every year as I still miss the green mountains and the smell of the ocean and still love to take the occasional walk down the Dimbath.
How many times did I walk from Glyn-Llan to Blackmill - but that's where we did all our shopping and went to Chapel (Paran) and in the spring the banks at the side of the road were covered with yellow primroses which was great, so there was always a wonderful distraction. The Humpback bridge has gone now, but as kids, we loved our dad to go fast (truck) over it so we could see how high we'd go (no seatbealts in those days).
As kids we'd also walk up the big mountain across from Glyn-Llan and drink from the mountain stream and go and see if we could find any old artifacts (bald spot on the mountain was from tales that there had been a battle where lots of blood had been spilled and no grass ever grew....of course, we believed it).
Brilliant days of my youth were spent in Blackmill and Glyn-Llan.

Yen at a 7 Month high versus the Dollar
The Yen registered sharp gains Friday, breaching the significant Y90.00 barrier against the Dollar and reaching the highest levels versus the greenback in over 7 months. Japan's currency benefited from supportive comments from Japan's finance minister Hirohisa Fujii who said that he opposes intentional devaluation of the Yen.
The JPY advanced 1.8% this week to 89.64 per Dollar from 91.29 on Sept. 18, briefly touching 89.51 Friday, the strongest level since Feb. 5. The currency also gained 2% to 131.70 per ERU, from 134.33.

text: GARDENA, Calif., Nov. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GrowLife Inc. (formerly known as Phototron Holdings, Inc.) (OTCBB: PHOT), an innovative leader in high end horticultural supply, today announced the signing of their first North American distribution deal with at-home gardening brand, Urban Cultivator earlier this week. Urban Cultivator offers a distinct line of products for at-home gardeners that focus on bringing fresh micro greens, herbs and leafy produce to families around the globe. Offered in both residential and commercial capacities, the company's automated and user-friendly machines are designed to promote year-round agricultural sustainability for users of all types. Finally, the firm also provides extremely helpful and informative customer service base as well, for all users who have questions or would like to be taught how to "grow their own." The Urban Cultivator line of products is now available on all GrowLife websites, and at all retail locations in California. Individuals can also order directly over the phone by calling 1-866-632-3111. "The availability of fresh produce and its travel time from the farm to your table are ever growing concerns of 21st century families around the world," says Urban Cultivator owner and CEO Tarren Wolfe. "But, with the right equipment, proper direction and forward thinking attitude, you can healthily feed your family pesticide free produce and all year round. Urban Cultivator had an exciting start, being pitched on Canada's "Shark Tank" (Dragon's Den) and receiving a $400,000 deal. They have expanded rapidly, landing large-scale deals with The Four Seasons Restaurants, celebrity chef endorsements, and several condo developments where a Residential Cultivator will be outfitted in each unit. Additional information on about the company's recent initiatives can be seen here: http://www.urbancultivator.net/press/ GrowLife Inc and Urban Cultivator are strong advocates of a "grow your own" mentality, urging all people to begin living a more healthy and sustainable lifestyle by growing their own veggies, greens, herbs and micro greens in their own homes. Recently, GrowLife announced that it voted "yes" on California Prop 37, which would label foods that are genetically engineered or contain genetically modified organisms, GMOs. Several polls have shown that more than 90% of Americans would like to know that their food is genetically engineered, including a survey conducted by The Mellman Group.

Reliability is a key concern for many growing semiconductor markets, including automotive, medical, and industrial IoT. Consumer electronics markets have traditionally had low reliability requirements due to the high turnover of products. Chips built for these emerging markets must operate at high levels of confidence and must provide long lifetimes. This tutorial will give a holistic view of reliability, including physical effects, system-level models, and applications. The speakers will discuss reliability models and their influence on system design; DRAM and wireless communication systems; and statistical modeling of thermal behavior.
|Reliability of On-chip Systems in the Nano-CMOS Era
Reliability, power (or, more precisely: power density) and on-chip temperatures are interdependent. These optimization goals/constraints have traditionally been treated in an orthogonal way. However, with the advent of nano-CMOS on-chip systems, it has become apparent that such treatment would lead to wrong power/thermal/reliability models. The goal of this talk is therefore to provide the basics behind and explain the interdependencies within the triangle of reliability (with focus on aging effects), power and temperature. The talk starts with discussing the discontinuation of Dennard Scaling leading to high power densities and high on-chip temperatures (and spatial and temporal thermal gradients) that in turn accelerate some aging effects like electro migration, NBTI etc. Our research results show in which way some key reliability metrics are affected. The second part of the talk introduces some representative system-level and architectural-level mitigation techniques.
|Dependability Issues in Memories: DRAM Subsystems and Wireless Communication Systems
Many applications show an inherent error resilience due to its probabilistic behavior. This inherent error resilience can be exploited to reduce the design margin for advanced technology nodes resulting in more energy and area efficient implementation. We will present a cross layer approach for efficient reliability management in wireless baseband processing with special emphasis on memories since memories are most susceptible to dependability problems. A MIMO system will be used as design example.
In the second part we will focus on DRAM memories. All today's computing systems rely on dependable Dynamic Random Access Memories (DRAMs). However, in the future memories such as DRAMs will become undependable due to further scaling. This has to be counterbalanced with higher refresh rates, which leads to a higher DRAM power consumption. Moreover, due to the increasing device capacities more DRAM cells have to be refreshed regularly, which results in further increase in refresh frequency and power. Recent research activities resulted in the concept of "approximate DRAM" to save power and improve performance by lowering the refresh rate or disabling refresh completely. Hence, fast and accurate models (power, thermal and retention errors) are required for a thoroughly exploration of approximate DRAM for error resilient applications. In this talk we present a holistic simulation environment for investigations on approximate DRAM and show the impact on error resilient applications.
|System-Level Thermal Modeling and Optimization
Thermal behavior is critical for reliability. Thermal behavior is also critical for real-time systems - thermal sensors may slow down clocks, causing processors to miss deadlines. Accurately assessing thermal behavior for chips requires both compact models of the chip's thermal behavior as well as models of use cases. We will describe thermal RC models that relate power consumption to thermal behavior in both time and space. We will use these to consider statistical models of chip-level thermal behavior. We will also discuss work from a variety of groups on thermal-aware scheduling.

Well everybody at the Vogue festival was like, srsly, the whole body image thing is getting insane, please talk to Dave about this damaging obsession with looks & hair & freakish diets as in non-dairy & intermittent fasting & that new paleo one where you only eat horsemeat? But when I go, babes, we have to think about children's self-esteem Dave's like, excuse me, what can I do when Govey keeps snapchatting his thigh gap & Oik's hair extensions fooled everyone & when I asked him how he lost four stone he said he had this picture of me in my towel on his fridge, plus how can I call Miliband weird if I don't hit my target weight for the Queen's speech, everyone will laugh? I'm like, wear spanx? Dave's like, did you not see Emma Watson's, it is never worth the risk, Danny tell the palace we have to move it back until I can get into my trying-on trousers.
So now everyone is like God poor queen & God how pathetic they have not got any ideas which is ridic when you think Alexa has about a million ideas a DAY eg when that Saharan sand arrived she was like, well if the met office texts me next time I will tweet my followers & if we all like go outside and point our hairdryers at the sky it will blow the sand back to Arabia and so people will not have to wash their cars so it will save all this energy so they will not have to do any fracking, you're welcome, even Vivienne Westwood was like *eco face* respect.
So I'm like no offence babes but if you need any ideas the Vogue festival was SO inspirational, eg I have not even told you about Africa, as in Franca Sozzani says there is this awesome continent that got left totes alone for centuries and now literally everyone is talking about it #buildawarenessofAfrica :) Dave is like, hmm, liking, but would you not need extension leads for the hairdryers, I'm like, do not be so negative, that could be a fabulous new law, he's like, OK I will run it past Lynton but be honest babes, if I turn round, don't you think I really have lost some weight off my bum?

The Original Classic Rock
A new theory surrounding Stonehenge, which in the past has been suspected to be some sort of temple or sundial, has surfaced regarding the noise it makes when you hit it with a rock. The rocks make a loud clanging noise when hit which leads to the theory that the ancient monument is actually an instrument used to make music. It certainly would explain why the rocks were hauled 200 miles which is a huge feat for 4,000 years ago. While it is still just a theory it would explain a lot of the mystery behind the monument. Read more about the theory here.

Atletico Madrid star Tiago AGREES shock Chelsea return
TIAGO has agreed a shock return to Chelsea, according to Spanish newspaper Marca.
Jose Mourinho spent £12m on Tiago during his first spell at Stamford Bridge TEN years ago.
He spent just a year as a Blues player but is now set to rejoin Mourinho in London.
The midfielder, now 33, is out of contract on June 30 and Marca claim he has agreed to swap Atletico for Chelsea.
Tiago admitted after Atletico's Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid that he had already made his mind up about his future.
However, he refused to reveal what that was and was adamant he would communicate his decision to the club first.
Tiago is understood to see a move to Chelsea as his last chance to net himself a bumper contract.

Mosh: Shell for Users on the Move
Productivity Sauce
The ability to connect and control remote machines via SSH is a boon for users on the move, but an unreliable and slow Internet connection can turn an SSH session into an exercise in frustration. Enter Mosh, a mobile shell that works wonders even on a shaky and anemic Internet connection. This tool offers several features designed to deal with challenges posed by unreliable Internet connections. For starters, Mosh provides a mechanism for handling dropped connections. This means, among other things, that when you put your machine to sleep and wake it up later, Mosh resumes the connection. In addition to that, the tool supports connection roaming, which can come in handy when you hop from one type of connection (e.g., Wi-Fi) to another (e.g., Ethernet).
Deploying Mosh isn't particularly difficult. The tool is available in the software repositories of many popular Linux distributions, so you can install it using your distro's package manager. Alternatively, you can compile the software from source. You have to install Mosh on both a remote host and a client. Mosh uses SSH to log in a user to the remote host. Once the user is logged in, Mosh uses a UDP connection on a port between 60000 and 61000. In practical terms, this means that the remote host must have an SSH server up and running, and you have to configure SSH and UDP port forwarding on your router.
Using Mosh is as easy as it gets. On the client machine, run the mosh user@remotehost command (replace user and remotehost with the actual user name and IP address or domain name of the remote host). If you are using an Android device to connect and control remote hosts, you'll be pleased to learn that the tweaked version of the IRSSI ConnectBot app provides support for Mosh.comments powered by Disqus

'ID and lawn mower were the only things I could save' – Durban shack dwellers count cost of blaze
Tuckshop owner Tusokwakhe Mthethwa lost everything in a devastating fire which razed about 10 shacks at the Springfield Industrial Park area in Durban on Wednesday morning.
Mthethwa' 39' was left with just the clothes he was wearing' an African National Congress T-shirt and a tracksuit after the fire completely destroyed his home and tuckshop. He also lost R1000 in cash.
It is unclear what started the fire which took more than an hour to extinguish. The eThekwini Metro Fire Brigade responded immediately after the alarm was raised.
Looking exhausted and dejected' Mthethwa said he was bathing and preparing to go to town to buy stock for his tuckshop when he heard people screaming that there was a fire.
"I couldn't do anything because the fire was already too close. I just ran outside without saving any of my belongings. I lost everything' including my two cellphones and R1000 cash'" he said.
He has operated a tuckshop in the informal settlement since 2010 and it was his only source of income.
Some shack owners were at work when the fire started and had to come back to the sight of their gutted homes. Others were able to salvage a few items such as blankets' TVs' radios and clothes.
Some devastated residents were heard lamenting the fact that they would struggle through Christmas and the New Year.
Unemployed Khanyisani Ngcobo' 32' who ekes out a living by mowing people's lawns' was only able to salvage his ID and his lawn mower.
"I had just left to look for some piecemeal jobs when somebody called me to say there was a fire. I ran back as quickly as possible and my ID and lawn mower were the only things I could save'" said Ngcobo.

A smoke alarm probably saved a Whangarei woman's life after the device alerted her to a fire in her bedroom believed to have been caused by an electrical fault in a dehumidifier.
Ruakaka Fire Brigade Station Officer Jeff D'Ath said the rented house could not be saved and almost all the woman's belongings were destroyed - but he credits the smoke alarm with saving her life.
The brigade was called to the home in Key West Dr, One Tree Point, about 9.30pm on Saturday after the woman had discovered the fire.
Mr D'Ath said the woman was watching television in the lounge and had closed all the doors to the lounge, bedroom and kitchen.
She heard what she thought was a smoke alarm, but at first thought it was on the TV programme.
However, once she realised it was not on the TV she went to investigate and found smoke in the hallway, which was getting thicker as she neared the bedroom.
Realising the home was on fire she went to a neighbouring home and rang 111.
"She had a dehumidifier going in the bedroom and it appears a possible electrical fault in it caused the fire," he said.
It took the volunteer brigade about 15 minutes to reach the home, but by that time flames were coming from the roof, windows and guttering, but despite the best efforts of fire fighters from Ruakaka and Waipu, the brick home could not be saved.
"It's a write off," Mr D'Ath said.
However, the situation could have been much worse had it not been for the working smoke alarm, he said.
"That smoke alarm probably saved her life. If she had fallen asleep while watching TV and not had that smoke alarm she would have been overcome by smoke and she would be gone.
"But it alerted her and she got out and did all the right things by getting out straight away and not going back in and ringing 111 as quickly as possible."
Mr D'Ath said the woman returned to her home with firefighters early yesterday morning, and while she initially thought everything had been lost, she managed to recover precious photographs of her grandchildren and a few other personal belongings.
But she had been left with only the clothes she was wearing and one cardigan she managed to recover.
