I now own a Playstation 4, which is a good thing because PC gaming is too much of an effort to keep up with. One of the games which tempted me toward the Playstation platform was "Horizon: Zero Dawn", which is an exclusive release. The game looks good, features a diverse cast, and throughout the very early stages of the game it appears that the narrative conflict resolution is designed by people who aren't sociopaths.
This game is an open world action RPG set a thousand years in the future after contemporary Western civilisation has collapsed into a pre-industrial state. Robot dinosaurs roam the land and the people of Aloy's tribe are warned away from the ruined cities and underground vaults which contain pre-fall technology. Accordingly there is a main thread of story punctuated with dozens of optional side-quests.
The side-quests are always the best part of an RPG.
Recently I finished one called "Insult to Injury". The mechanics of it are dull. The resolution of the story though the options I chose lead to decent, not murdering, behaviour being displayed. Insult to Injury starts with Aloy arriving in a village not long after a vicious battle with the game's primary antagonists. There she finds a healer tending to a dying warrior. The warrior is in pain and will die from their injuries. You are tasked with finding Dreamwillow, an analgesic so that palliative care can be given. Searching the map happens, but eventually you end up at the home of a recluse who has been locked in their home by outcasts[1], exiled members of Aloy's tribe.
I have never attended a computing convention, but thanks to YouTube I have watched a lot of the talks which take place at them. Sometimes I watch them because I've required precise technical information about a subject for my day job and sometimes I watch them out of curiosity. !!Con (Bang Bang Con) is a curiosity. Very little of what is discussed has any immediate relevance to my profession, which is great.
I'm going to preface the three talks I'm sharing as talks which I learned a lot *and* enjoyed the hell out of the weird enthusiasm for fringe topics. !!Con is literally the best at combining an energetic sense of wonder at finding the cool shit computers can and also give you a sense of understanding at the reveal mystery.
You can watch the first day of !!Con and the second day. Confreaks have also split out the talks into their own ten minute videos with a helpful play list here.
There are thirty-one videos to choose from. I haven't watched them all, yet, but here are three of my favourites so far.
(And I'm not sure what the selection criteria for favourite is.)
"What Alien Invaders, Birds, and Computer Simulations have in Common: Flocking!!
Real flocks aren't what they're like in the movies. You've probably seen flocking behavior in The Avengers, the latest Star Trek movie, or even in the Ender's Game books. Flocks are groups of individuals, usually birds (or invading aliens when it comes to Sci-Fi), that are collectively moving together. The flocks in movies show individuals forming complex patterns, but they're all easily taken down by targeting a centralized point of command. In reality, flocking behavior is a lot simpler and there doesn't need to be any coordination between individuals–that means your favorite protagonists probably wouldn't have won when they came up against flocks!"
So this is a great talk because there's an interesting behavior being explored here. It's also a lovely demonstration of a person exploring a question with a tool they know well, but I have literally no concept of using. Jan takes the flocking behavior we've seen in films and peels back the underlying processes behind shoals of fish and flocks of birds in a neat way which allows for exploration.
DHCP: IT'S MOSTLY YELLING!! by Mindy Preston
"The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP to its friends) is the magic by which your laptop knows how to get to Twitter on a brand new network about which it knows nothing. DHCP can tell your computer what its address should be, and where it should go to connect out to other networks. It can also tell your laptop weird stuff, like that it should run all the traffic through a proxy you've never heard of!! IT ALSO WORKS MOSTLY BY YELLING!"
One facet of !!Con which I love is the short topics on the hidden things which are everywhere. DHCP is one of those ubiquitous things that having an understanding of (however limited in my case) makes living in the contemporary world a little bit less scary. Are you having problems with a WiFi router in a crowded place? Well there's a chance that it has ran out of IP addresses to assign you via DHCP. This talk involves performative yelling and a little bit of malicious activity.
HDR Photography in Microsoft Excel?! by Kevin Chen
"Have you ever taken a photo with areas that are too bright or too dark? As any photographer will tell you, high dynamic range photography is the right way to solve your problem. And, as any businessperson will tell you, Microsoft Excel is the right platform to implement your solution.
"In this talk, I'll explain the algorithm from one of the foundational papers about HDR imaging ― no prior image processing knowledge required. Turns out, it's just a system of linear equations! So, obviously, the next step is to implement HDR in a spreadsheet. Because we can. The end result reveals how this complicated-sounding algorithm boils down to a few simple ideas."
At seven minutes fifty seconds when Kevin says, "So that's the first step to turning Excel into an image editor," your head will probably explode.
When I first saw the title for this I was initially dismissive of how interesting I'd find it. I don't really do Excel or spreadsheets. However, I watched the talk this morning with my coffee and am very much prepared to admit I was wrong. This is both a very clever and super cool way of demonstrating how high dynamic range imaging. 10/10 would recommend.
I'd like to make a small observation regarding the reactions to the Shadow Clarke
Award that I've seen on social media. More time on Reddit and Twitter has been
spent voicing opposition to the shadow jury for viewing some of the Clarke Award
novels through the lens of commercial vs non-commercial. Many bytes have been
expended telling the shadow jury that this is a bad distinction to draw, with the
possible subtext that they shouldn't think this way.
My opinion on if commercial vs non-commercial is a good (read: interesting) lens
to review the shortlist with is that it's simply a device to filter preconceived
notions. I don't presume that any of the jury take it to be the only critical
sieve available to them. There are surely other dialectic opposites they will
have considered using or will use in future reviews. As critical knives go, it's
sharp, but also clumsy. A meat clever rather than a scalpel. Good for getting
the joints off the beast and dividing the parts into neat piles before proper
inspection begins.
But I haven't read all of the shadow panel's reviews yet and they haven't yet
published anything apart from a heavily edited conversation, so I may be proved
to be wrong.
And of course, audience participation is to be encouraged, but we should let
the project run its course before starting our dissections, least we vivisect
the subject to death.
I will end by saying that it is right that we consider it crass to send author's
unsolicited negative reviews of their work. It should also be considered equally
crass to tell a critic what to write, to think, in their reviews while they are
still writing them. I say this not to close down conversation or opinion.
Everyone is free to disagree with everyone else. However, the words we write can
change the reader of those words. If we accept that, then it's worth considering
in these discussions why we are attempting to drive that change. Is it to add
another opinion or is it an attempt to make someone else think the same as you?
It is the middle of a Saturday afternoon in February. Jenny and I have done the week's food shopping, and now that I've made us both a coffee, we are settling into an afternoon of reading and writing.
Last month I attended the first Hello Worlds event at the National Video Game Arcade in Nottingham. It was a writing/reading group for interactive fiction. The next event is scheduled for this coming Thursday (9th) and will feature a demonstration of Viktor Ojuel's game Ariadne in Aeaea and a group discussion about it. Ahead of attending, I have also been writing a short game using Twine called "Nazi Punching Simulator 2017." More on that later.
Jonathan McCalamont may not want your award nominations and we should honour those wishes, but he deserves our critical attention. His essay on the New Weird, Nothing Beside Remains, was one of the best pieces of long form writing I read last year and something that I'm still trying to engage with critically. Not only does Jonathan write good essays and reviews, but he also occasionally curates a series of link posts called Thought Projectors. They are all good. Read the latest one here.
Coffee is the drink which I obsess over. Not only do I enjoy its varied flavors, but I associate it with being comfortable and relaxed. At home I put a lot of effort into brewing coffee and own a plethora of specialist equipment to make better, more interesting variations on black coffee. Recently I have started watching Chris Baca's YouTube channel and listening to the podcast, Cat and Cloud, which he co-hosts and is associated with his roasting business and cafe in Santa Cruz. It's all very boisterous and enthusiastic, which was initially off putting, but there's genuine thought and attention put into those videos, which finally won me around.
As an aside, I work as a System Administrator/DevOps type person and the discussions about customer service, customer experience, and training staff all resonate strongly with me, because these are things which my industry is only within the last five years or so are starting to learn. Chis Baca's insistence that the aim of his cafe is for people to leave feeling happier than when they entered, regardless of the reasons they went in, is a smart goal to work towards in most professional situations.
Coffee as a pleasure is something which came up recently in my life. At work things do go wrong. In the past I have almost self-medicated my way through disasters by drinking more coffee. After some pretty serious incidents which left me both physically and mentally drained I made the decision to not drink coffee while actively stressed. Coffee is for good times. Dr Pepper is for the bad. A recent event showed this to be a wise decision. Removing a consumable from my life during a specific, short period of doom meant that I could return properly to it as a comforter in the days after while recovering.
Dan North has become one of the people I follow for good practice in software engineering/operations management/project delivery. Again, like with the Cat and Cloud people, he's often promoting a sense of empathy and understanding of the people we deal with. Unlike the Cat and Cloud peeps, he also gives presentations on subjects which I can directly implement in my professional life. The slides for his talk at PubConf (which I sadly missed) were recently posted onto the internets and have the provocative title of "Why Every Single Element of SOLID is Wrong!" I'm convinced by his conclusions and entertained by the reduction.
I said that I'm making a Twine game, but I hate the interface for Twine. It's a point-and-click GUI, which is basically just awful and doesn't fit into my workflow. So I've been using a project called twee2 to generate the Twine files. This works better for me as my process for writing prose at the moment generally follows these steps:
Write bullet points on paper. [PROTOTYPE]
Expand bullet points into rough paragraphs. [PROTOTYPE]
Shuffle bullet points and rough paragraphs around and rewrite until the shape feels right. [PROTOTYPE]
Type up the mess into a text document of some description. [MINIMUM VIABLE PRODUCT]
Expand and revise the mess until complete. [ITERATE]
Having to work through Twine's GUI gets in the way of the prototype and iteration stages. Twine as a tool seems designed to get people to produce a minimum viable product quickly, but by sacrificing having a decent interface to work with producing text.
The primary purpose of Nazi Punching Simulator 2017 is to learn how to write a choose your own adventure game, so the content of the game is almost secondary (although I do of course condone punching Nazis) and there to provide a simple narrative to hang the questions and tools and process off. The next steps after I've written this game will be to actually play more IF games.
To play more IF games I may start playing games on the train to and from work. That time has usually been spent reading, but for some of the last week I've replayed Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which has been a pleasant piece of nostalgia. Also slightly worrying how much I remember from nearly twenty years ago.
Todo This Weekend
Finish the first playable version of Nazi Punching Simulator 2017.
Type up a short fiction prototype and start expanding.
Start drafting a new prototype.
Watch a David Cronenberg film.
My evenings are short now that I am working elsewhere. The chores and tasks of existing do not vanish because you arrive home an hour and a half later in the evening, etc. There is the precious reading time to consider though. The first month of my commute has taken me through Kim Stanley Robinson's 2312, a Martin Beck novel, and I'm currently nearing the final quarter of The Breaks of the Game. Anyway, this post is a placeholder for something I want to write about later and do not want to forget about.
Jonathan McCalmont, of Ruthless Culture and Interzone, has been reviewing the films of Andrei Tarkovsky as part of the current reissuing of his films, so that mortals can actually see them. I managed to see three of them at the cinema: Stalker, The Sacrafice, and Solaris. It is Stalker which I wish to write about, since Jonathan has added a fine piece of the genre of criticism about and around the film Stalker in the form of his review for FilmJuice. It's a good piece with plenty to think about. It's shorter than Geoff Dyer's Zona too. His post around it can be found here.
The placeholder of an idea is a question. Why do certain films (Stalker being a prime example) invite rewatching, reinterpreting, and replaying to a degree of intensity more fervent than written fiction, especially the shorter forms?
I have unverifiable theories. And I will probably end up citing my own reading and rereading of the stories found near the back of M. John Harrison's Things that Never Happen.
Time to clean up cat litter and apply flea treatment to the mangy moggies.
Recently I have been thinking about the kinds of games I enjoy playing. It is fashionable among my circles to enjoy grand strategy games which pit you as the mind behind a civilization. These games have my attention because they're so intricate and clever, but they do not have my playtime. My ability to focus on them and understand their systems is too short.
It was through the Idle Thumbs podcast that I found my comfort zone.
The podcast has been going for a number of years now, although I only started to listen to it about nine months ago. In that time the panel have made numerous references to Far Cry 2's shared experience of the live grenade rolling back down the hill towards you. Interested I took the opportunity one Steam sale and bought a copy. I'm seventeen hours into my first play though and thoroughly enjoying myself. My standard mode of play is to take a rifle and to calmly snipe my way through encounters. No check point of mercenaries is safe from me if they are in my line of sight.
This style of play: a deliberate and thoughtful adventure but without all of the mechanical trappings or heavy narrative of role-playing games. It works for me. And now that I have gotten my head around how the game works, I'm starting to find that experience in survival simulator The Long Dark.
The comparison which I'd make to this experience is from one of the opening scenes of No Country for Old Men. I attempted to find a suitable clip on YouTube and found that someone has made the comparison between it and Far Cry 2 for me already.
The prose from Cormac McCarthy's novel better captures the stillness I'm searching for.
MOSS SAT WITH THE HEELS of his boots dug into the volcanic gravel of the ridge and glassed the desert below him with a pair of twelve power German binoculars. His hat pushed back on his head. Elbows propped on his knees. The rifle strapped over his shoulder with a harness-leather sling was a heavy barrelled .270 on a '98 Mauser action with a laminated stock of maple and walnut. It carried a Unertl telescopic sight of the same power as the binoculars. The antelope were a little under a mile away. The sun was up less than an hour and the shadow of the ridge and the datilla and the rocks fell far out across the floodplain below him. Somewhere out there was the shadow of Moss himself. He lowered the binoculars and sat studying the land. Far to the south the raw mountains of Mexico. The breaks of the river. To the west the baked terracotta terrain of the running borderlands. He spat dryly and wiped his mouth on the shoulder of his cotton work shirt.
The rifle would shoot half minute of angle groups. Five inch groups at one thousand yards. The spot he'd picked to shoot from lay just below a long talus of lava scree and it would put him well within that distance. Except that it would take the better part of an hour to get there and the antelope were grazing away from him. The best he could say about any of it was that there was no wind. When he got to the foot of the talus he raised himself slowly and looked for the antelope. They'd not moved far from where he last saw them but the shot was still a good seven hundred yards. He studied the animals through the binoculars. In the compressed air motes and heat distortion. A low haze of shimmering dust and pollen. There was no other cover and there wasn't going to be any other shot.
All the cool kids are doing link posts now and because I've had such weird days working for the past few weeks I've collected a bunch of things that I think are worth making some notes on.
First off there's this talk by Harry Schwartz at the Boston Emacs Meetup called Getting Started with Org-mode. Fantastically nerdy stuff. In my experience there are several categories of tools for manipulating text. There is Microsoft's Word, obviously, which is good enough for most people's purposes. And then there are the more minimal text editors from the default notepad application which appears on every computer's operating system and has a greater or lesser set of features depending on the system's target audience. (Notepad on Windows is shit. Gedit provided with some Linux desktops is pretty good.) Then we have your integrated development environments. Scrivener, a tool for writers, is equivalent to the tools available from Jetbrains, who produce specialist IDEs for various programming languages. These provide tooling and automation for common tasks in the problem domain. They are often very good, but have a tendency to force you into a work flow.
And then there are the two sleeping giants: Vim and Emacs.
Vim could be said to be a minimalist environment, but it's customisable and has plug-ins available. I use it for work because it's installed on pretty much every server in existence. It's good, but not for me.
But I'm an Emacs user. And I'm an Emacs user for two reasons: firstly it's inherently programmable and you can change it to adapt to your work flow. It is an old joke that Emacs is a fantastic operating system in need of a good text editor. And while that's got a genuine core of truth in it that's slightly unfair. Mostly though I use Emacs because of Org-mode. The talk linked to above is an hour long outline of some parts of Org-mode, but is in no way an extensive tour. Like Harry, I use Org for todo list management and also for writing technical documents. At various times I have tried to use it for writing prose in, but find my optimal process often involves paper & pen then typing up, so text generally goes straight into Scrivener.
Anyway, look at that talk. Emacs and Vim are fascinating as they will likely be around for as long as we have computers and have parallel solutions for many tasks.
My evangelism caught the better of me there.
The next thing which has caught my interest has been the ongoing discussion around the Clarke Awards. It started with Nina Allan and continued with Martin Petto and Jonathan McCalmont. I suspect that my contribution to the discussion has been minor and betraying how junior I am within those circles. Broadly I'm less interested in literary awards than having a robust & boisterous culture of debate around literature. I nominally write SF, but only one example of it has been published anywhere of note. I've ruled out submitting material anywhere this year, as I just want to get good enough to my own standards and I'm not quite comfortable with what I'm attempting to articulate yet. To have spaces for lively arguments which are conversational is something that would help me get there.
The genre (whatever that is) has gotten better over the last fifty years, but everyone seems happy for us to be in situation where writing at a Hard Difficult level is the accepted norm. Personally I want to see myself pushing into the high E numbers along with my friends. It's the critics who'll get us there.
Related to the above I've been reading Lavie Tidhar's HebrewPunk. It's good and definitely of a high standard than is usual. Will have thoughts later.
I start work in an hour and a half, so best make another coffee. Tonight is the night that I resort to chemistry to power me through to 6AM.
See below for a selfie.
Last day of the holiday.
I've been good by not checking my work email since Thursday 28th It's been good to have the time off. I did no project work at the weekend as I was mostly reading and taking some time to play Far Cry 2. I'm still enjoying that. Still struggling with the politics and have just reached a difficulty spike, which isn't that fun.
The big success of the weekend was finding an iced coffee recipe which used the Aeropress. I took the recipe from Serious Eats and added a dash of soy milk to it. I was using the Foxtrot blend from St. Martins and will have to try the recipe with their house blend, Intrepid, as that's what I tend to buy for week-to-week drinking. The Intrepid blend or their single origin Old Brown Java taste good/the same after being left in a vacuum flask for ten hours. Some of their other delicate roasts change flavor in ways which aren't necessarily unpleasant, but make the other coffees I drink during the day taste sour. (I make coffee the night before work and put it in a Zojirushi flask to keep it warm because what I value most when I get to my desk in the morning is a cup of really good coffee.)
As usual the scrum notes for today are below. These are the last I intend to do for the duration of this project. The retrospective should be up later this week.
Scrum notes:
MUSIC NOW: THE SOCIAL NETWORK ORIGINAL SCORE (Not seen the film)
My holiday is now in its final phrase. I'm back to the millstone on Tuesday and I already expect it will be a mildly unpleasant day. Part of doing these scrums has kept me honest although I've dropped the sprint planning and retrospective phases of the process, which has caused discipline to drop. The game will get a public alpha release on Sunday for people to take a look at. Once that's done I'm going to look towards doing a full retrospective and post-mortem on this project.
Do I want to add to this work of IF? Yeah, I think I do. I'd like to keep it around as an experimental sandbox for ideas. Do I want to write other IF? Sort of. Yes. I've got a vague note scribbled on Wednesday to write a work based on my reading of The Buried Giant which uses gameplay mechanics to explore memory. Is this something that I have the time and expertise to do? Not really, but writing IF works is more enjoyable than writing short science fiction. Both are niches within niches. However IF is a niche which hasn't yet been monetized by MFA programs.
I suspect also that my narrative tics fit better into contemporary IF than they do into short SF. As Jen frequently says, I'm aiming for most of my writing to have a quality similar to Scandinavian light — diffuse but just in the right, golden way. Also it's hard to escape the process differences between prose and working in the Inform 7 language. Prose is not computer programming and while Inform 7 is roughly analogous to a natural language, it is still possible to write with agile, incremental, and rapid prototyping processes.
Oh that's food for thought.
Scrum notes:
MUSIC NOW: Pig Destroyer's Mass & Volume, a CD I bought years ago, ripped, and never listened to until now. Very nice.
I had too much fun yesterday evening reading The Buried Giant in a beautiful garden and then in a bar drinking beer & rum. Today I am paying for one of these things with a headache and lethargy.
The new J. Grimwood novel, Moskva, came out today. It was delivered to my Kindle at midnight in the moments before I slipped into strange anesthetized dreams. I'm two chapters in and it's great.
Notes today will be kept short. I'm not sure if I'm due a sprint planning session or a retrospective. They've not been too important for this project as the momentum of writing the scrums has kept me on a pace.

Can I change the column color on specific columns in a Matrix Dynamique?Asked by rpaul99 on June 30, 2016 at 10:38 AM
I want to change the color of every other column in my Matrix Dynamique. Is there a way to stylize the matrix?
JotForm Support
Yes, by injecting a custom CSS codes in the widget. Here's an example: https://form.jotform.com/61814804896971.
The actual CSS which you can use to your form are the following:
For the headers. I have 4 headers so notice the line th.c0 and so on. You have 11 headers so you need to add up to 10 of this selector with the background color.
th.c0 {
background: #ff3200;
th.c1 {
background: #fc9e32;
th.c2 {
background: #0064f0;
th.c3 {
background: #fcc932;
For the answers. I have four answer columns so notice the line td:nth-child(1) and so on. You need to do the same for the rest, just replace 1 with the column number.
tbody > tr > td:nth-child(1) {
background: #ff3200;
tbody > tr > td:nth-child(2) {
background: #fc9e32;
tbody > tr > td:nth-child(3) {
background: #0064f0;
tbody > tr > td:nth-child(4) {
background: #fcc932;
Let us know if you need any further assistance.
JotForm Support
I forgot to add the background of the input boxes, you can add the following:
td.c0 {
background: #ff3200;
td.c1 {
background: #fc9e32;
background: #0064f0;
td.c3 {
background: #fcc932;
Just change the colors to your preferred ones.

By CLIFFORD D. MAY, Special to the New York Times
Published: December 15, 1988
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14— The Foreign Service is uniquely American. Career diplomats with no experience in the private sector are sent abroad to defend free enterprise; they promote freedom of expression while suppressing their own opinions and, no matter how fast they rise, they cannot expect to reach the top. No career diplomat has ever been appointed Secretary of State.
Many key ambassadorships also tend to go to outsiders. Thus there has been jubiliation in the State Department in recent days over President-elect Bush's choice of Thomas R. Pickering for the very visible post of United States Representative to the United Nations.
If Mr. Pickering receives Senate confirmation, he will be only the second career officer ever to serve as chief United States delegate to the U.N. The other was Charles W. Yost, from 1969 to 1971.
''I don't know a single person in this building who wasn't absolutely delighted,'' said George S. Vest, the Foreign Service's Director General.
Mr. Bush said that his selection of Mr. Pickering ''symbolizes the importance I place on the United Nations, as well as the Foreign Service.'' One Precedent Disregarded
Skeptics, however, detected a ring of ambiguity in Mr. Bush's remark. They note that the current United Nations Ambassador, Vernon Walters, holds Cabinet rank, as have virtually all his predecessors for the last quarter-century. Among them have been Henry Cabot Lodge, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Andrew Young, Jeane Kirkpatrick and Mr. Bush himself.
Mr. Pickering will not be in the Bush cabinet.
''Power-wise, that's a very big difference,'' said one career officer who asked not to be identified. ''If you're not a member of the Cabinet, you don't talk to the President.'' Instead, Mr. Pickering will report to the Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs.
For Mr. Bush and Secretary of State-designate James A. Baker 3d, the upshot of this giving and taking away appears to be twofold. It insures that the policy made in the White House and in Foggy Bottom will be the policy espoused in Turtle Bay. But it also sends a message that the United Nations is henceforth to be viewed as a diplomatic post not so very different from other diplomatic posts.
Mr. Moynihan, now the senior Senator from New York, said, ''I think that is a very good thing if it finally brings multilateral diplomacy, kicking and screaming, into the State Department.'' Some Compensations
Another aspect of the absence of cabinet rank is that Mr. Pickering will receive less compensation than Mr. Walters. His annual salary will be $82,500 instead of $89,500. However, Mr. Pickering will not need to worry about stretching paychecks to cover the rent. Mr. Walters will turn over to his successor a four-bedroom official residence at the Waldorf, for which the Government pays $235,000 a year.
The new ambassador will also be entitled to security protection, cars and drivers as needed, and a ''representational allowance,'' the bureaucratic term for cash to throw cocktail parties.
At the age of 58, Mr. Pickering is one of only five Foreign Service officers who hold the rank of Career Ambassador, the diplomatic equivalent of a five-star general. Born in Orange, N.J., he graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Bowdoin College and received an M.A. from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. He served three years in the Navy, reaching the rank of lieutenant commander before joining the Foreign Service in 1959.
Mr. Pickering has served in an unusually wide range of posts and under very different political figures. He was, for instance, an Assistant Secretary of State in the Carter Administration and head of the Executive Secretariat under Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger. One Blemish on Record
His career has not been free of controversy. Most recently, attention has focused on the brief role Mr. Pickering played in the Iran-contra affair. According to his own testimony before the joint Congressional committee investigating the matter, he assisted in arranging a secret donation of more than $1 million in military equipment to the Nicaraguan rebels at a time when a Congressional prohibition on contra aid was in effect.
''I'm sure people will ask some questions about that,'' said Representative Stephen J. Solarz, a Brooklyn Democrat. ''But on the basis of what I know, it doesn't strike me that he's done anything that would disqualify him. Nobody's judgment is impeccable.''
Mr. Solarz praised Mr. Pickering as ''one of the superstars of the Foreign Service, someone who masters his brief very well and can make a powerful case for whatever point of view he is representing.''
When Mr. Pickering served as envoy to Jordan in the early 1970's, King Hussein also lauded him as ''the best American ambassador I've ever dealt with.'' But in Israel over the last three years he has received less favorable reviews. One prominent Israeli parliamentarian, Uzi Landau of the Likud, described Mr. Pickering earlier this year as ''a hostile ambassador of a friendly state.''
Nevertheless, American Jewish leaders and supporters of Israel express confidence in Mr. Pickering. ''I know Tom pretty well,'' said Morris B. Abram, chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations. ''He's entirely a professional, among the very best in the Foreign Service. He can be depended on to articulate the foreign policy that comes from the President and Secretary of State in a nearly flawless way.''
Mr. Pickering, who is still in Israel, declined through a State Department spokesman to discuss the United Nations job, explaining that he thought it inappropriate to comment until he has completed his confirmation hearings. Ran Afoul of Helms
Within that body, Mr. Pickering's harshest critic has been Senator Jesse Helms of North Carolina, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee. In 1984, when Mr. Pickering was Ambassador to El Salvador, Senator Helms accused him of interfering in local elections to the detriment of right-wing candidates, and he demanded that Mr. Pickering be dismissed.
Mr. Helms did not respond to requests for an interview about Mr. Pickering. But other conservatives said they found the Ambassador's designation to the United Nations job a disappointment.
''He's an establishmentarian,'' said Richard A. Viguerie, a conservative political consultant. ''It would have been so much better to give the job to somebody who could use the U.N. effectively as a bully pulpit.'' Other conservatives said they are concerned that Mr. Pickering may bring a ''Foreign Service mentality,'' to the job.
''Career officers have a tendency to say, 'Oh, it doesn't matter what anybody says at the U.N. or what resolutions are passed there because that's just posturing, letting off steam,' '' said Roger Brooks, a former State Department official and currently a senior scholar at the Heritage Foundation.
Still, even those with the strongest misgivings about Mr. Pickering do not expect a concerted challenge to his confirmation, especially since he will not carry Cabinet rank.
''I interpret this appointment as a clear decision to downgrade the post and reduce our emphasis on the United Nations,'' said Howard Phillips, chairman of the Conservative Caucus Inc. ''And I'm not at all opposed to that.''

I've been engaged to my fiance for almost 3 1/2 years. I told him I wanted to wait until I finished grad school to get married. Long story short my parents are not accepting of me marrying him because he is of a different ethnicity. I'm trying to give my parents time to accept it as I just introdced my fiance almost a year ago. I don't want to plan behind my parents back.
my fiance's mother has been trying to get involved. She wants to throw me a shower because thats what she does with her friends (so the shower will be all of her friends). She keeps asking when the wedding date will be and where to have it. I told her I would let her know when i set the date but i did say sometime in late September.
Yesterday she pushed again and told me she really thinks I need to set a date and book a place to give people time to get their schedule set (my fiances grandmother wants to go to england in september).
My family has been going through a lot the past couple months- my cousin has been having problems, my grandfather is being treated for cancer and my brother had brain surgery and had complications and almost died last week. So I don't want to push anything with my family now cause they are stressed. I told my fiances mother this and she said something to the effect of "well there is always going to be something you can't put ypur life on hold"
I don't want my fiances parents to pay because I feel like this will gove them automatic say in the wedding. I politely declined and told them I have all the money I need saved. They insisted and won't take no for an answer.
correct me if i'm wrong but i thought the brode got to be in charge of planning.

In fact it is the bride that does the plans. If you want this wedding to be your wedding and not everyone else's party stay away from the grooms side until you have all your planning done or this will end up a cluster feck. It's all nice that they want to contribute and all but it could very easily go just as you fear , they helped financially so now they feel they have the say so regardless as to how you feel. Mention your fear of this happening to your fiancée so he can help you watch for it coming11|00|0
Thanks. The problem is my future mother in law will text me too. Today she texted me and wrote "maybe it is better to postpone the wedding until things calm down at home" My fiance and I have been engaged for over 3 years but we haven't been telling people we are engaged since this past year. His mom has a lot of friends and they keep asking her when the wedding is and about the plans so she feels pressure from that I guess. I have made no plans and don't want things like a dj, pictures, etc. i don't want a bridal shower at all but told my fiances mom she could throw one b/c she said it's a tradition with all of her friends. So it's basically going to be a room full of her friends and me.
- Show AllShow Less
You're right. The problem is I never had a vision for my wedding. Because of the situation and now being pushed by my fiances mother I'm starting to think it's not worth it. It's not going to be how I want it anyways because my parents will not budge on what they want, which is "a small Lebanese wedding." But the topic of the wedding or my fiance hasn't been brought up for over 2 months and I'm afraid to bring it up because it's a very stressful topic... they get angry and I just don't want to deal with it. Like I can't have American music, there will not be alcohol (my fiance and I don't drink anyways so no big deal I guess), the ceremony will be a Muslim one (my fiance pretends to be Muslim so my parents are somewhat accepting and I pretend because my father said he will disown me if I'm not a Muslim). So the wedding to me is just a formality so I can get my life started with my fiance. But what my fiances mom has in mind is conflicting with what my parents will want.
This may indeed be better postponed until you can maybe figure out a way to somehow appease everyone.
Most Helpful Girl
No offense but your parents sound straight from hell. I really feel for you. You're a grown up and can make your own decisions. They either have to suck it up or possibly lose their relationship with their daughter and for what? Because they don't approve of something so small? What are they honestly getting out of disliking him? You need to sit down and really talk to them because they aren't being rational.
You also need to talk to your in-laws. They need to relax. They're doing nothing but adding unnecessary pressure on you. Tell them that you NEED more time.
Your wedding is YOUR wedding. Don't let either sides dictake you. This is supposed to be your day! Don't try to please either side. Good luck. I hope that everything works out.00|00|0
No offense taken. To my parents it is a big deal because my fiance was not born into the same religion they are (Islam). He was born to a Jewish mother and that is why they are having a hard time. My fiance fake converted to Islam (we are both atheist in the closet). Even so they don't believe he really converted. He eve went to the mosque with my dad for Friday prayer and my dad still wants him to go covert in front of a Muslim religious leader.
I've learned in therapy that my parents are covert narcissists. For the longest time I couldn't understand why it's so hard for me to just put on my big girl panties and stand up for myself. There is a reason according to what I've learned so I don't feel helpless (I usually get a lot of flack from other people and they tell me I just need to step up).
I know it's supposed to be my day but isn't it also my fiances day? He is telling me he wants whatever I want so he isn't really giving any input.
I guess I need to tell my fiances parents that they need to back off in a nice way. I just thought it was pretty inappropriate that his mom texted me "maybe it is just better to postpone the wedding till things calm down at home" as though she has a say in it all. Like why do I have to pick a date just because other people need to make plans? She already told me it has to be after Sept 15th because my fiances dad has a tax deadline. So that leaves a possibility of two weekends. I really don't think that is so unreasonable for people to plan around that time. It's not like I'm saying well the wedding could be anytime from September to November. I'm giving a two week possibility... so if I don't have the exact day set I don't get what the big deal is. It's not like it is vacation time... it's the fall not summer when most people go on vacation.

I am delivering my first wedding cake in a couple of weeks. 3 tier stacked, lots of gumpaste flowers. I have delivered assembled and doweled many cakes this size, but my concern is I am nervous to assemble at the venue as it would be my first time. Should I attempt to pre-assemble and deliver or am I better off doing it at the venue? Also, any tips/tricks to help make it go smoothly? Thanks in advance for any help.
Why change what has worked for you in the past and add extra stress?
Well, that does make sense doesn't it? Thanks!
If you can carry it and are confident in your support system then go with what works for you.
I think my concern is the numerous flowers on the cake. I do alot of fondant cakes and haven't transported a cake with so many fragile flowers. I guess it is lack of experience that has me worried. I read tons of posts on how to's and try to learn from the experts here, and it seems that most cakes are assembled on site. I think I would be more worried if I had an audience watching me!
Oh that makes sense. I have only done cakes with a few flowers and I did attach them on site. I was there early enough that the only people to watch me were the people setting up and they were pretty busy on their own. How are you attaching the flowers? Wires? Chocolate?
Probably a combination of both. Wires for the larger flowers and melted choc for the fillers, small roses etc. I have been reading alot about wires in cakes and that you should use straws etc. What is your opinion on that? Thanks again.
Probably a combination of both. Wires for the larger flowers and melted choc for the fillers, small roses etc. I have been reading alot about wires in cakes and that you should use straws etc. What is your opinion on that? Thanks again.
For the flowers with wires and chocolate I think they should be sturdy. Also was thinking you could wire groupings together and then apply them quickly at the reception site. THe cake would be stacked but you could travel the flowers in a padded box.
Ahh the wire in cake debate. I am probably not the right person to ask. I'm crazy paranoid about things not being food safe and everything I read you're not supposed to put wires in cakes. You don't have to use drinking straws though. You can use coffee stirs that are very narrow and slide the wires into those. If you have a large grouping then you could cut a section of a regular drinking straw. One thing about the straws is it will give extra support to holding the flowers onto the cakes, especially if you put a bit of fondant or chocolate into the straws before you insert the wires.
Honestly I don't do that many florals so I really hope other people will pop in and give you some advice.
Thank you sooo much! The groupings was exactly what I was thinking. The coffee stirrers is a fab idea. Now if I can get all the flowers done I should be in good shape! How time consuming!

Good golly miss Molly,
I thought I was in snow bird country! There were maybe 35 or more picklers at the Plantation Country Club courts last Monday evening. I can't believe it! And it was almost 98 degrees out! What is the matter with these folks? What? Are they losing their minds? Does this man Dennis Forbes have a hypnotic hold on them? Here he is, perspiration beads on his forehead, patiently instructing, correcting, cajoling, and even whistling to get the players attention so he can show them how to do the skill thing. And their loving it! Smiles, grins, chuckles and even an expletive every now and then! Gosh, think I'll join them! Welcome to the game you who reside at the Plantation. I heard the enthusiast who started all this action is Tony Binder, the country club pro. I think he deserves the enthusiastic shout out for his efforts! Dennis Forbes told me that 28 of those enthusiastic newbies signed that they were interested in our pickle club when it is fully organized. Wow! Think of the fun we are going to have playing with all these different players!

I'm not saying I personally won't ever get married, but I see so many posts on here and on other online places always going on about marriage I get don't get it. I mean marriage doesn't mean love and you can unconditionally love someone without getting married. And when ultimatums are given saying if you love me then you'll marry me, cus I've heard of that before making someone 'prove' their love. Other cases I don't understand people's opinions is babies being born before marriage making a 'basterd' child, in more old fashioned areas I understand this concept but I'm directing this to modern societies. And before someone mentions this I fully accept marriage I just don't understand why some people make it their goal in life or gets really upset/think a relationship isn't 'going' anywhere cus there's no proposal or wedding in the near future.

You can blame culture and religion.. I had my own reasons for getting married like the fact that I didn't want to be alone.21|10|0
Most Helpful Girl
I personally want to get married because I would like to be able to share my life and create a family with the man I love one day. Sure, you can do that without marriage, but seeing how many young people today have children with multiple fathers or aren't with the person they had their child with in the first place. In my opinion marriage is a more solid form of commitment. Because divorce is expensive. You don't just marry someone to marry someone and if things don't work out then you just break up and that's that, you should be serious about it and the person you're marrying.41|30|0
exactly my thoughts.
lovely answer. :)

Gold Coast forward Luke Douglas is urging his young teammates not to take the chance to play NRL final lightly and seize the Titans' NRL top-eight spot.
The eighth-placed Titans can lock in their first finals place since 2010 with a win over seventh-placed Penrith on Saturday.
In an 11-year first-grade career, Douglas has played just two finals clashes, which were with former club Cronulla in 2008.
The 30-year-old says he'll make sure those in the team yet to experience a finals campaign realise the opportunity might not come around again for a long time.
"It's a really big opportunity and I know I'll be stressing that to all the young guys that haven't been in this situation before," he said.
"I'm hanging out for it and hopefully we can get there."
Superstar recruit Jarryd Hayne was at the Titans' recovery on Monday, and showed few signs of the concussion that forced him from the field in the round-23 win over Newcastle.
Hayne played in the halves alongside Tyrone Roberts, who made his return from a knee injury in place of the rested Ash Taylor.
With Taylor almost certain to start against the Panthers, and coach Neil Henry saying Roberts and the 21-year-old are his preferred halves pairing, Hayne is poised to move to fullback.
The dual Dally M medallist's likely shift means current No.1 David Mead will either have to be dropped or move to the wing in place of Anthony Don.
Douglas said Henry had given no indication of what his selection will be.
"He keeps his cards close to his chest, Neil," Douglas said.
"He'll come up with a plan. It's a good thing to have when you've got all guys fighting for positions. Jarryd's going to be there in the 17 or 13 and it's only going to benefit us."

Effect of Preservatives on Digestion in the Stomach
By: Katrina Songco,
Sylvia Titus, & Stephanie Rodrigues
Hypothesis: Preserved food is more difficult for the stomach to digest than fresh food. The canned beans will be the hardest to digest, followed by frozen beans, and fresh beans will be the easiest to digest.
Experimental Design: To test the pH of fresh, frozen, and canned beans after being in stomach acid.
Materials: Canned green beans, Fresh green beans, Frozen green beans, Electronic scale, Hydrochloric acid, GogglesBeaker, ph test strips, pH probe, Agitator, Mallet, and Ziplock bags
Conclusion: Our hypothesis was proven right; the higher the amount of preservative(salt) in the beans, the higher the pH reading was. The higher the pH reading is after the digestion, the more digested the food is. This shows that it is harder for the acid to chemically digest preserved food. Of course our investigation has flaws in that we only ran the stirring machine for 5 minutes whereas in real life food is mechanically digested by the stomach for 45 minutes to 4 hours.

Handcuffed - short story based on a scene in 'The 39 Steps'; Alex and Gene are handcuffed together.
You're A Bitch But I Love You Anyway - songfic, and a little bit of Galex angst/romance (:
Facebook Official - a parody of what would happen if Gene and Alex made their relationship 'facebook official' ! :P
Thunderstorm - classic 'Gene-protects-Alex' fic. When Alex is scared, she knows who to call.
An Ex in Eighty Two - Alex's ex-husband manages to enter her coma world. Quite a dark story.
The Fight for a Family - sequel to the above. Things can never stay perfect for Galex for long...
Body Swap - this was my first ever fic! Ray and Alex get caught in an explosion and swap bodies :D
Cast Away - my most scenically romantic and possibly favourite story, based on 'Swiss Family Robinson'. The gang are shipwrecked on a desert island.

Keeley Hawes is amazing. She is my acting idol and I actually love her !!
Happy reading :D x

A Late Chat Production
A Late Chat Production
It is two weeks before Christmas. Your mother always sends your two sons, eight year old Mark and eleven year old Luke, money to get a Christmas gift. The money arrived yesterday and the boys plan to combine their funds to buy a video game they have been wanting.
Today your family is volunteering at your church's toy drive. You all will be organizing and wrapping gifts. Your sons enjoy helping to wrap gifts. There is time before the volunteer project for some shopping. You need to buy a toy for the drive and Mark and Luke want to buy their game. You go to four different stores and the video game that the boys want is sold out everywhere. Clerks at all four stores say they do not expect to have any until after Christmas. You encourage the boys to save their money and buy the game when it is back in stock after Christmas. You all head on to the toy drive.
As Mark and Luke are wrapping gifts they see the game they want - the one that is not available anywhere. The boys talk privately and decide to "buy" the game. Luke slips the game in a backpack he was carrying while Mark takes their money and puts it in the donation box. The boys continue to work but are excited to have the new game.
When you all get home the boys start playing the game. You notice it and ask where it came from. The boys explain how they saw the game at the drive and bought it. The game is now opened and in use. You tell the boys they stole the game and that they are in trouble. They protest saying, "But we paid for it."
You send Mark and Luke to wait in their room while you calm down and think about how to handle the matter. Yes, the boys are subject to spanking if needed.
MARK - 8 & LUKE - 11 (Awaiting your decision)

After work I stopped at Walmart to see what ammo was in stock. We all know about the 3 box rule. Well the last that was helping me clearly didn't know of this. I wasn't quit sure until she asked me how many boxes of slugs I wanted. So I tested and said 5. She handed me the 5 and asked air do you want any more. I seen a giant stack of 7.62 and took a couple of those. After she handed them to me I walked straight to check out. The whole time I was expecting someone in a blue polo to jump out and say hey you can't buy all that. But all went well and I walked out with 7 boxes of ammo. Thankyou newbie

Nice. Either the person selling you the ammo knows three boxes are not enough, or just dont know how to read. But either one will work if it helps you out.
Thanks, now there's none for the rest of us.
I stopped at a walmart about a hour from me and I asked to get 3 boxes of tula .223 the guy says anything else I can get ya , I said yeah how about 3 boxes of Tula 7.62 , ok anything else . " What about the 3 box limit, is that per caliber ? " Oh thats just up there for the younger people so they dont go over board . How much you really want he said . Well how about 700 rds of .223 . " All righty anything else I can get ya ? WTF I should have just cleared the shelves I guess :D
He proceeded to tell me khe wasnt going to miss a big sale in his dept for some stupid 3 box limit . I love people that think like me :)
The last ammo crisis a few years ago, I filled a shopping cart with ammo when the clerk said three boxes per type. I loaded up with three of everything. At the checkout, the manager was called, and he made me pick three boxes period. Must have been fun restocking all that ammo. That was at 3am. Now they will not sell ammo at night.
Glad to see Walmart has good people.

With more than 90 million users, LinkedIn, the social network that helps professionals connect, filed for an initial public offering. The site which is mainly used for business networking, didn't reveal the number of shares it plans to offer or price range, but offers insights into its current financials and operations.
The fillings highlight how profitable the business of social networking can be. Currently, LinkedIn's revenues come from three main sources — advertising, hiring solutions and premium subscriptions. According to the filling, it generated revenues of $120 million for 2009 and $161 million for the first 3 quarters of 2010. Its hiring solutions and advertising have become the company's primary growth areas, comprising of 41% and 32% of revenue, respectively. It indicated it doesn't expect profitability in 2011 because of investments in technology and a few other areas. It also disclosed that a "substantial majority" of its members don't visit the site on a regular monthly basis.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A central avenue in the capital of Russia's Chechnya region, Grozny, was named after former president Vladimir Putin Sunday, honoring the man who sent in troops to crush a separatist rebellion there.
Previously called Victory Avenue, a common Soviet-era name, it is now called 'Prospekt Putina', or Putin Avenue, after the former president who since May has been prime minister.
Footage broadcast on Russian television showed bands of teenagers carrying the Chechen green, white and red flag along the avenue, which was lined with large portraits of Putin.
"This act is in recognition of Putin's outstanding contribution to the fight against terrorism, and to the economic and social restoration in the Chechen republic," Grozny mayor Muslim Khuchiyev was quoted as saying by Interfax news agency.
Putin sent Russian soldiers into Chechnya in 1999 to seize control from separatists who had forced out Russia forces in an earlier war. The second Chechen war killed thousands, destroyed swathes of Grozny and created a new wave of refugees.
Rights groups accused Russian troops of using indiscriminate force in Chechnya but the second campaign was popular with voters angered by a series of attacks on civilians that were blamed on Chechen rebels.
