Post Season Stress

More stress drawing as I watched a heartbreaking extra inning affair into the wee hours of the morning. I'm slowly getting the hang of this brush pen thing!
Monday, October 10, 2016
Dealt with a lot of tech issues at work today, and got a few PC vs Mac jabs from our tech guru. I was reminded of that Wall-E vs Eve meme that made the rounds way back when.
I used a brush pen on this, and the juxtaposition of drawing something so inorganic with a medium designed to be organic was quite the learning curve.

Technicolor Figure Drawings
We had a figure drawing session today at work, and I attempted using markers for the first time. It was a bit strange, but fun! Felt my approach change up a bit versus using ballpoint pen as per usual -- felt myself working a lot looser and being more observant before making a mark -- so stepping outside my comfort zone paid off. Already looking forward to next time, and possibly investing in some fun new colors.

Willy Wonka Show
Today we set up for our annual art show at work, with this year's theme being Willy Wonka. It's one of our most successful licenses, and as such we dedicated our gallery space to pieces inspired by the film. It's a bit of a shocker that Gene Wilder passed away recently, so that makes the show all the more endearing.
I'm not the biggest Willy Wonka fan, so it took me a long while to get started. As in, the days leading up to the turn-in date. But in the end I did managed to complete a few pieces, one of which being pencil sketches of the main characters. It was a bit of a kamikaze endeavor, as I had no game plan and did one character at a time while watching the film. Thankfully they all lined up and nothing ended up too wonky!
I'm still not the biggest Wonka fan, but I do enjoy Wilder's take on the character. I also despise Grandpa Joe immensely. Oye.

My mother, Caroline Layte, who has died aged 55, turned her hand to many things. She worked as an upholsterer and furniture restorer, but it was in her capacity as a flute teacher that she ultimately proved her great worth, albeit not musically. Having suffered for most of her life with crippling self-doubt, eating disorders and a highly addictive personality, she became beyond anything else a great listener, and spent much tuition time counselling troubled teenagers - often girls who suffered as she had done - in boarding school environments where there were few places of refuge.
She was born in Minchinhampton, Gloucestershire, a few minutes after her identical twin sister. They grew up a rebellious duo, being asked to leave various schools before finally settling at the high school in Norwich after their father got a teaching post in the city. Tall, blonde, beautiful young women, they turned heads.
Caroline excelled academically and in the arts, being offered a place at the Royal College of Music, which she turned down in favour of reading art history at the University of East Anglia, where she was to meet her future husband, James, in 1974.
She taught flute, principally at Gresham's school and West Runton girls' school, both in north Norfolk, and, even after she finally lost the confidence to teach or play, she maintained contact with several ex-pupils and continued to offer a listening ear. She became well known for her ability to give counsel without ever speaking of her own demons and helped many people through hardships, making the world a better place for those around her. She was also a volatile and fiery drinker who caused no end of grief with her legendary tirades. Caroline developed throat cancer, which was treated but returned last year. She is survived by James, myself and my brother Sam.


text: MARIETTA, Ga., July 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- MiMedx Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDXG), an integrated developer, manufacturer and marketer of patent protected regenerative biomaterials and bioimplants processed from human amniotic membrane, announced today that it has filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The registration statement is intended to provide the Company with flexibility to access the public capital markets in order to respond to business opportunities. Although the registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the SEC, it has not yet become effective and, at the present time, MiMedx does not have any commitments to sell securities under the shelf registration statement. If and when the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC, MiMedx will be able to offer and sell to the public from time to time in one or more offerings up to $100,500,000 of common and preferred stock, warrants, units or any combination thereof. In addition, under the shelf registration, if and when declared effective by the SEC, certain MiMedx shareholders may offer for resale to the public from time to time in one or more offerings up to 7,500,000 shares of MiMedx common stock owned by them. The terms of any securities offered under the registration statement, and the intended use of the net proceeds resulting therefrom, will be established at the times of the offerings and will be described in prospectus supplements filed with the SEC at the times of the offerings. These securities may not be sold, nor may offers to buy be accepted, prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. This press release is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Outlook Leave it to the Office for Budgetary Responsibility (OBR) to throw a black cloud over the end of a soggy week.
It says the Government will need to find £17bn in tax rises or spending cuts by the 2017/2018 financial year if public debt is to return to pre-financial crisis levels by, erm, 2061.
The OBR concedes that the Coalition's reforms to public-sector pensions cut the UK's liabilities by £175bn between 2010 and 2011.
But we're all still getting older so it's not nearly enough.
The Coalition loves this sort of thing: see, we told you so. The weakness in their thinking, however, has been made rather clear by recent economic data.
By aiming a battleaxe at the head of an economy still on monetary life support from the Bank of England, they are arguably exacerbating the country's fiscal problems rather than making them better; short-term pain for long-term agony.
The cuts aren't even being handled sensibly: ministers are willing to stare down public-sector workers and yet appear to have no compunction about kicking £15bn across the Atlantic for a Trident replacement we don't need and can't ever use.
As for the OBR's forecasts, Georgie, Danno and their chums in the Treasury will point to them as justification for sticking mulishly to their plan A regardless of whether it is economically literate to do so, and regardless of whether they should be taken with anything other than a big pinch of salt. They do, after all, stretch out nearly 50 years into the future.
A forecaster from 50 years ago assessing the fiscal position today would have been using a typewriter and an abacus before sensibly realising that his job was pointless and returning home to watch his black and white telly while the kids listened to the latest single from The Beatles.

MBF Leasing LLc Demanding Payment on Expired/Voidable Contract New York New York
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
MBF Leasing has sent a Final Demand letter to my significant other for a lease dated originally 11/2006. Her company closed and the equipment was returned , at the beginning of 2007. The bank account was debited a total of $322.00, without authorization after closure. When I call Louis Cucinota at MBF, to get the details, he first said there had only been two payments and tried to say that equipment was not returned. I advised him that we have copies of the return and he suddenly found the confirmation.
The statue of Limitations in New York is six years thus, this is expired! Louis did not want to admit to that and said this would only go away with a payment or settlement. I advised no service was provided after equipment was returned and that they had taken monies out of the account. He tried to convince me they did not. But admited that the above total was debited!
In conclusion, they will try to get you to pay for whatever they want by threatening legal action even though contract has expired. Stay clear of this company as they have a long record of similar actions listed in Ripoff Report. We are going to use all legal means to file Official Complaints with both the State of New York and the Federal Agency governing this company.

Select Australian agents and their clients are expected to gain a better understanding of Chinese property purchasers, following the launch of a new initiative by a major real estate network.
LJ Hooker has established a designated concierge in mainland China, who will field enquiries from Chinese buyers about its listings in Australia and New Zealand, and help local agents respond to them.
Speaking to Real Estate Business, LJ Hooker CEO Georg Chmiel said being able to screen buyers in China was a key difference to the standard model of having a Chinese-speaking salesperson in an office.
"It's someone sitting in China, who is able to screen buyers, who's able to support offices in Australia and New Zealand if they want to sell properties which suit the Chinese market, someone who's able to help with the organisation around property expos," he said.
"It's adding to the skill that our salespeople have, which is understanding what the vendor wants and knowing about the property and how to deal with the buyer.
"By adding this element, there's someone on the ground who's able to look at the buyers if required because there are a lot of enquiries coming in but it's absolutely important that there's some form of screening mechanism, so it helps the buyer find a property that's perfect for them."
The new service has been provided through LJ Hooker's partnership with leading Chinese international property portal Juwai.com.
Appointed in the new role is marketing and real estate expert Jessie Zhong, a Chinese native who is fluent in English.
Mr Chmiel said the announcement of a China-based concierge has already been positively received by LJ Hooker franchisees.
"One minute after the announcement, I had nine offices saying, 'Wow, this is amazing' and since then it hasn't stopped, so the leads have been flowing already," he said.
"It's a great outcome for our network, it's a great extension to the partnership with Juwai, and it's been extremely well received by our group in Australia and New Zealand."
Juwai.com co-CEO Andrew Taylor said LJ Hooker's concierge service would help Chinese buyers, but its biggest impact would be in helping Australian vendors find new sources of buyers.
"The property concierge will make Australian and New Zealand LJ Hooker agents more effective at selling and give them a boost when pitching to vendors for their listings," said Mr Taylor.
"LJ Hooker is solving the practical obstacles that can sometimes stop a transaction. They are making sure every enquiry gets followed up, no matter what language it is in."
Australia is the second most popular country for Chinese property hunters. According to Juwai.com, Chinese nationals have invested an estimated $5.4 billion in Australian real estate in the 2012/2013 financial year.
The Foreign Investment Review Board has reported that Chinese investment in Australian property has climbed 75 per cent over the recent two years.

All of New York is buzzing about the Mets' impressive waltz into the World Series -- their first appearance in the championship since 2000 (their last World Series win was in 1986). If you're anything like us, your glee at their success is mediated by the pangs of loss still felt from when Brooklyn's beloved Dodgers decamped for Los Angeles. As it happens, October 4th was the 60th anniversary of the Dodger's World Series win against the Yankees in Game 7 -- the only championship the team won during its tenure in Brooklyn.
If that paragraph got your heart beating a bit faster, you're in luck, because we're offering two programs on the history of our Dodgers next week! Note that the Monday, October 26th program will be held in Central Library's first floor Info Commons Lab, and the second event on Wednesday, October 28th will be held in the Brooklyn Collection.
Monday, October 26thAuthor Talk with Andy McCueTwo out of three ain't bad: Branch Rickey, Walter O'Malley and the Man in the Middle of the Dodger Owners' Partnership. Join author Andy McCue (author of Mover and Shaker: Walter O'Malley, the Dodgers, and Baseball's Westward Expansion) as he discusses the fascinating life of Brooklyn Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley. One of the most influential and controversial team owners in professional sports history, O'Malley (1903–1979) is best remembered—and still reviled by many—for moving the Dodgers from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Yet much of the O'Malley story leading up to the Dodgers' move is unknown or created from myth, and there is substantially more to the man.7:00pm in the Info Commons Lab
Wednesday, October 28th Author Talk with Andy MeleTearin' Up the Pea Patch; the 1953 Dodgers. What made the '53 Brooklyn Dodger's so good? What issues on and off the field did they need to address on their way to the World Series against the Yankees? Mele takes us back to that extraordinary baseball season, and shares his insight into relationships between teammates, managers, and fans. 7:00pm in the Brooklyn CollectionReception precedes this talk at 6:30pm
Copies of the authors' books will be available for purchase and signing at both events.

GR8 cookbook!
In addtion to the recipes and photos that are great, the additional information is an extra treat. Ina shares cooking tips, shares where items from her studio and favorite cooking utensils come from, and even where you can purchase the same type of decor as in her show.The price was much less on Overstock than I saw at cooking stores and bookstores.

SYN Flood / Server Resource Exhaustion
Bogus requests consume CPU and memory at the server
If the cookies presented by attacker is not valid, the data in the SYN packets is not accepted.
Fallback to regular TCP
Amplified Reflection Attack
Bogus requests consume CPU and memory at the server
Threshold pending TCP Fast Open connections at server
Fallback to regular TCP if threshold is exceeded
Security Consideration
A new TCP mechanism that enables data to be exchanged safely during TCP's initial handshake.
* Number of round trips required to transfer application data.
* RTT between the client and the server
HTTP Persistent Connections
Reuses TCP connections for multiple transactions
Widely deployed (92% connections support it)
> 33% of requests still use new connections (cold requests)
[Chrome, Yahoo CDN] statistics
SYN + TFO cookie request
SYN-ACK + TFO cookie
Generates cookie by encrypting client IP
Client caches cookie
for this server IP
SYN + TFO cookie + data
Validates client TFO cookie +
accepts connection + data is
made available to application
Data in the SYN packet
also ACKed by server
More data packets sent
to client while handshake is in progress
2. Amplified Reflection Attack
Kernel – Linux 2.6.34
2000 lines of modifications to TCP stack
Congestion control not directly affected, only connection setup is changed
Client – Chrome browser
sentTo() and sendMsg system calls with new MSG_TFO flag
Chrome supports TCP Fast Open since mid 2010
Server – Apache
Socket option to enable TCP Fast Open on listen socket
Server Performance
TCP Fast Open Cookie
* 8 – 16 byte token
* Granted and validated by servers
* Permission to send request in SYN packet to the server
* Validates IP ownership of client
* Encrypts IP address of client using a server secret key
* Expires after a timeout set by server

A 53–year-old man underwent right nephrectomy for a locally advanced renal cell carcinoma with concomitant resection of a solitary metastasis in the right lung. Ten years later, he presented with haematochezia caused by a tumour in the tail of pancreas, invading the transverse colon and the greater curvature of the stomach. The tumour was radically resected, and histological examination revealed a solitary metastasis of the previous renal cell carcinoma. This case illustrates a rare indication for pancreatic resection because of pancreatic metastasis.

For Media
Listed below are answers to common background questions that reporters have about legionellosis. Contact CDC's Media Relations office with additional questions.
Questions and Answers
Q: Is legionellosis (Legionnaires' disease and Pontiac fever) reportable?
A: Yes, legionellosis is a nationally notifiable disease. Lab-confirmed cases of legionellosis should be reported to state health departments, who are to notify CDC. The local or state health department where a patient lives or an outbreak is occurring is the best source of information about specific cases or situations. However, health departments usually release very limited information about cases in order to protect the privacy of those affected.
Q: Can CDC confirm if there are legionellosis cases in my state?
A: Your local or state health department has the most up-to-date information about legionellosis cases in your state. Unless CDC has been contacted by the health department, we are unlikely to be immediately aware of local cases. However, we can answer questions about legionellosis in general.
The Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Reports contain available data by state of all notifiable diseases. Preliminary data from 2015, which includes data about legionellosis, can be found here. Each week, cases of legionellosis are reported to CDC and published here.
Q: When does CDC get involved in responding to outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease or Pontiac fever?
During 2000–2014, passive surveillance for legionellosis in the US demonstrated a 286% increase in reported cases per 100,000 population.
It is unclear whether this increase represents artifact (due to increased awareness and testing), increased susceptibility of the population, increased Legionella in the environment, or some combination of factors.
A: State public health officials typically invite CDC to assist with an investigation when additional expertise, capacity, or resources are needed. For information about a current outbreak, contact the state or local health department where the outbreak is occurring. For cruise ship outbreaks involving U.S. citizens and ports of call in the United States, CDC has jurisdiction over the response. Visit CDC's Vessel Sanitation Program website for more information.
Q: How common is Legionnaires' disease?
A: About 5,000 cases of Legionnaires' disease are now reported each year in the United States.
For additional information about legionellosis, see CDC's About the Disease website.
Q: Is Legionnaires' disease on the rise?
A: In general, the number of cases reported to CDC has been on the rise over the past decade. This may reflect a true increase in the frequency of disease due to a number of factors (e.g., older U.S. population, more at-risk individuals, aging plumbing infrastructure, climate). It may also be in part a result of increased use of diagnostic testing.
Q: Where does Legionnaires' disease occur most often in the United States?
A: Legionnaires' disease appears to be more common in the northeastern United States. Researchers are not certain why that is, but it is likely related to a combination of factors.Top of Page

22nd day - Cambridge
... it was not much of a walk to get there. It took us an hour to get to the Cambridge bus depot & since we were the first stop after the bus depot in Huntingdon we got to ride on the top in the front of the bus. The kids enjoyed the view which made the time pass faster. We stopped in St Ives which is part of the nursery rhyme "As I was going to St Ives I met a man with 7 wives" We even passed a pub called Seven wives which I thought was cute. After St Ives the ...
Of Slow Cards, Green Trees and Academic Things
... probably. Cambridge was named after the first iron bridge built around 11th century across the River Cam… hence Cam..Bridge or Cambridge.
An incredible number of famous scholars went to Cambridge; Issac Newton, Christopher Wren (wrote Winnie the Poo, the original copy of which is still in the library of Kings College (I think it is Kings anyway), Hugh Laurie (Dr House), James Mason (failed Cambridge), Stephen Fry, John Cleese, Charles ...
In Memory
... Air Force involvement and war-time procedures. We then surrounded the memorial to do a Bible reading, sing, and prayer in memory of the American soldiers. It was definitely a humbling experience, especially to be on another continent and still be reminded of how blessed we are with our country's ...
Day 3: Wrong Side of the Road to Cambridge
... and intertwining roads. Also in hopes of looking more like a local I tried really hard to walk on the left side of the sidewalk, but it's so strange to not pass on the right, ran into a few people. With all the rain I also learned my "rain boots" are not as waterproof as I thought. So I'm rocking the wet socks in a Starbucks right now. Yes of all the cafés to choose from I went into the Starbucks, which is ...
The last post...210 memories & thank yous
... br> And finally, some very very grateful thank yous.....
My sister Toni for taking care of simply everything and my brother Glyn for car-sitting
My friends for your support when I needed it most
Our Aussie family for being so welcoming and incredibly hospitable
Sally and Jane for giving me the time off!
To my friends and colleagues in travel who helped me piece the trip together, answering my never-ending questions, making suggestions ...

Party Time
After the funeral, I went straight home, and collapsed in front of my computer. I logged on to Twitter. Up came my username, "Chris". I didn't like flouncy usernames, like, "Awesome Chris" or "Rockstar" or "I love my baby boo soooooooooo much". I was JUST Chris.
My page loaded up and I slowly started to type.
"Hi guys. I'm having a party on the 10th. Anyone interested? It's in memory of Sam Beechen, who died last week. He loved his bevvy, so there'll be loads there! Twit me if you're up for it!"
I stopped for a moment, looking up at the screen. I could just see my reflection in the computer screen. My greasy hair. Green eyes. My eyes were still a little bloodshot from the tears. I'd cried a bit at the funeral.
Not that I'd done much else there. I'd just sat at the back, saying nothing. It was Nicola who'd seen Sam's body and given him the necklace and stuff.
She looked so sexy when she was sad....
"Did I just think that?" I thought. She was my best friend's girlfriend. My DEAD best friend's girlfriend! I couldn't think stuff like that!
But then again, it might be a good thing, this party. She would be on her own anyway, not with Sam. It had... hurt me so much when they'd started dating, they'd been all over each other. The whole point of the party was to tell her how I still felt.
And now he was gone, maybe... just maybe... we might go somewhere.
I clicked the little "Post" symbol, and my comment was up.
"Roll on the 10th" I thought, a tiny smile on my face.
