Cinematography: V Manikandan
Producer: Suryadevara Radhakrishna
Story, Screenplay, Dialogues & Direction: Trivikram
Release Date: 10th of January 2018
Expectations were humongous on 'Agnyaathavaasi' as its the third film in the deadly combination of Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram. This star-studded flick released Today amidst so much hype. Let's see if it met the expectations or not…
Govinda Bhargav (Boman Irani), who built a business empire in the name of AB, and his Younger Son gets brutally killed. When his Second Wife Indrani (Kushboo) had no clue what to do, Abhishikth Bhargav (Pawan Kalyan) who happens to be the son of his First Wife enters the scene. He joins as an Employee in the company owned by his Family to know who is behind the conspiracy. Rest of the story is about how he finds the Killers & take over the Business Empire!
'Agnyaathavaasi' is Pawan Kalyan's One Man Show. He could be seen in almost every scene & appears in the manner in which Fans enjoy watching him. Be it PK's performance, mannerisms & fights, Everything seems to be designed keeping the fan base in mind. So, This movie is gonna be a feast for the fans of Powerstar.
Neither Keerthy Suresh nor Anu Emmanuel are able to impress. Their roles weren't etched out well. Screen Presence of Aadi Pinisetty in the villain's role is good but his character looks weak. Even Khusboo's role is no different. Boman Irani does a fine job. Rao Ramesh and Murali Sharma tickles the funny bone. Vennela Kishore is superb. Tanikella Bharani does a fine job.
Pawan Kalyan
Interval Bang
Lack of Trivikram-mark
Run Time
Music composed by Anirudh Ravichander isn't up to the expectations. Though 'Gaali Vaaluga', 'Baitikochi Chusthe' & 'Kodakaa Koteswar Rao' were good enough, There is a feeling that something is missing in his music. Even the picturization of Songs isn't up to Trivikram's reputation. Whereas, Background Score of Anirudh is awesome. Manikandan's Camera Work is a huge asset to the movie. Every frame looks so lavish and colorful. Production Values are grand. Director Trivikram took inspiration from the French film 'Largo Winch' for the basic storyline. Unfortunately, This style of writing didn't suit this subject much. Even the Dialogues weren't as good as his previous projects. No doubt, 'Agnyaathavaasi' is the weakest film in his career.
Audience don't think about logic as long as they find the proceedings engaging or entertaining. The actual problem begins when they were unable to connect with the emotions and that's what happened in the case of 'Agnyaathavaasi'. Throughout the course of the movie, One could find many logic less scenes as the story doesn't engage much and even the entertainment is below par.
The Protagonist joins his Family-owned Company as an employee to find the people behind his Father's Murder. Instead of being on the mission, He indulges in romance with Heroines and behaves funnily with other staff. He hardly presents the grief which anybody who lost his/her Father would experience. What is the logic behind making the Hero do all funny stuff in such a serious subject? At least, Viewers would have given it thumbs up if the humour has entertained them but that didn't happen. Even 'Khaleja' which was the weakest film in Trivikram's career have some hilarious moments. Though the story is weak, Trivikram have the reputation of making it work with his terrific writing skills and sense of humour. Whereas, You find that magic missing in 'Agnyaathavaasi'.
All the roles including that of Heroines and Villains haven't been etched properly. The complete focus of Trivikram is only on Pawan Kalyan. He made a conscious attempt to highlight PK in every scene. Though Pawan Kalyan thrilled the fans with his mark mannerisms and feats, Hero elevation scenes work big time only if Villain's role is strong enough.
There are many Twists n Turns in 'Agnyaathavaasi' but Trivikram failed to keep it crisp and engaging. Lack of Trivikram-mark comedy is the biggest drawback. Multiple layers in story create some interest but the story loses track after a point. Action Block in the interval & the sequence establishing the relationship between Pawan Kalyan & Khushbu are worth praising. 'Kodakaa Koteswar Rao' song & few funny scenes in the office have been nice. Climax isn't so exciting but Trivikram-mark is visible here to some extent. Overall, Fans may enjoy watching Pawan Kalyan in almost every frame but neutral audience might fight it disappointing.
Bottom Line: Trivikram-mark Goes Missing!

It's difficult for me to write about Jack these days. As his wife of almost thirty years and as an author who's written three books about this scarred and glorious warrior, that's an odd statement, an unsettling realization, a bit of a shock. Nonetheless, to write without hitting as close to the truth as I am able, is a waste of time – both mine and the readers – so today, with this post, I expose to you a difficult personal truth.
I have moved on from Jack emotionally, begun the journey of reinventing, or perhaps rediscovering, myself as an individual rather than as half of a partnership.
Over three months ago, Jack was transported by ambulance from our local hospital, three hundred miles down the coast, to the San Francisco VA medical center. Progressive Supranuclear Palsy is a bitch of disease, one that attacks the body, mind, and personality of the afflicted. For Jack's safety and for mine, it was time for him to be provided more care than I could give in our home. Because of the level of care he needed, and due to the cruel way that skilled nursing placements are accomplished, a bed could not be found for him while he was in the home. The VA social worker and I tried this route for over six months, as Jack fell more and more frequently, as both his health and mine declined, as our relationship split apart with the demands being made upon it – no facility would accept him. We went further and further afield. Again and again his application was denied because the nursing home could not provide the level of care he needed.
And, no, the irony of that was not lost on me – the person attempting to care for him.
In the end, he fell eight times in seven days. The final fall was a dozy. His lower back and ankle both battered and bruised to match his previously injured side, shoulders, right thigh, and the back of his head. When the EMTs came to get him up, I insisted they take him to the hospital. At the hospital, I refused to bring him home.
That felt like a betrayal of unfathomable proportions. And yet, it was necessary for his safety, and for mine. Love is tough, as is the will to survive. I stuck to my decision. That placed Jack in an entirely new category for the VA. Suddenly, he was their problem. Fifteen days later, the community living center attached to the San Francisco VA agreed to accept him as a resident. It's where I had been trying to get him for six months, it's the only place he will get the continuing care that he needs.
I was relieved.
Jack was angry.
He screamed down the halls, "Help, I'm being held naked against my will. Call the police."
The mere sound of my voice sent him into a rage that required he be medicated. He wanted to come home. He threw whatever he could lay his hands on at the nurses, ranted at friends, instructed every visitor to go to our house and retrieve his passport. His plan was to fly to Danang where he still believes he can lead a life of luxury cared for by a half-dozen young Vietnamese women. The hospital handled this by overmedicating him, which made the situation worse.
I continued to refuse to bring to him home. I learned to visit when his combat vet buddies were also visiting. These guys provided him the grounding he needed to allow me into the room with him without screaming. Still, his fifteen days in the hospital were rough, on both of us. On the day he left he asked the discharge nurse for a kiss.
She said, "Now Mr. Jones, your wife is right here, she'll give you a kiss."
"Fuck her. Don't let her touch me."
And that was our goodbye.
Once at the San Francisco VA hospital for evaluation before being moved next door to the skilled nursing facility, he refused to speak with me on the phone. Screamed obscenities when I left the message that I loved him. I comforted myself with humor. At least he remembered who I was.
A week later he was transferred to the Community Living Center. He promptly escaped. Three times. Police were called. Mental health professionals were alerted. He was returned to the CLC. The third time the doctor told me if he escaped again, he would be sent back to the hospital for further evaluation and sent to a locked ward.
I asked the social worker to explain to Jack the consequences of his next attempted escape. I insisted on talking to him and explained to him how the system would handle him if he continued to sneak out the door in an attempt to get to Danang and his harem of young caregivers.
He settled down. Settled into life at the CLC.
He called and hung up several times. I called him.
He said, "Why are you calling me. I don't want to talk to you. I'm mad."
"So am I,"I said. "But I love you."
He hung up.
But, over the next few weeks, he called more often. At first, he just barked orders. Send me this, or box up that and get it to me today. But slowly he began to tell me about his days. What he was eating. That he won at bocce ball, or balloon volley ball, or black jack. Or that he lost because the other guy cheated. He called the afternoon he got back from AT&T park and a Giants game, the day he made pies in occupational therapy, the morning he had grits with his eggs.
He asked for me to come and visit. The social worker and psychiatrist agreed that I could come down. I made reservations and told him the date. He called every hour with a list of places I was going to take him. Each time I explained that I was coming to spend time with him, to visit him, that we were not going to be going into the city. He called and asked if we were going to have sex when I came down. I said no, we would not be having sex. He hung up. Called back.
"There's no reason for you to come. It's too much money. Don't waste your time." Hung up.
I waited, figured I'd see how things went between then and the time I was schedule to visit. The social worker called to say he demanded to see an attorney so he could file for a divorce. Of course, I knew he could not go through with the threat, and that he was truly not in his right mind. Nonetheless, I canceled the reservations.
That was several weeks ago.
He has given up the idea of divorce, or at least has topped mentioning it to me or the social worker. He calls six to ten times a day, says he is looking forward to seeing me the first week in September when I am now scheduled to drive down and spend the day with him. He still thinks he is going to Danang, everyone involved in his care is wary that he is playing all of us, biding his time, and waiting for his chance to make his big escape. In his situation, I think a plan B of escape is not a terrible coping tool, as long as he doesn't follow through and end up harming himself or getting himself moved to a locked ward.
As for me, I make whatever arrangements I can to give him the highest quality of life available– set up a laundry service, get him a new phone and have his contact list transferred, speak with doctors and social workers and other care providers. But, I have moved on. And by that I mean I have accepted that I am no longer responsible for his every need, the tone of my day is no longer dictated by his mood, I am beginning to see what the remainder of my life might look like.
At the time of Jack's death I will need to find a fulltime job if I am to keep my house. While I have both a bachelor's degree and a two year high school teaching credential, it has been twenty years since I held a job. At sixty-seven I need training if I am to remain in pricey Humboldt County. So, I am taking a summer-long class in medical billing and coding. The class is horrendously complex, tedious, and demanding, but I am doing well in it, learning what I need to know to find a full time job at its conclusion. I hope. I am also turning my en suite bedroom and bath into a privately accessed AirB&B room.
I am cultivating friendships with individuals who are not combat veterans or their significant others. That sounds peculiar, I know, but for thirty years, every friend I've had, other than my writing buddies, has fit that narrow description. Of course, I still love combat vets, but, honestly, I am so done with the challenges PTSD. I need a break. I want some friends whose challenges are not related to something that happened in a steamy jungle fifty years ago.
Hell, I want challenges that don't originate in a freaking war zone.
I'm moving on.

The History of Osprey Backpacks.
Since Osprey was founded in 1974, every single product design bearing the Osprey name has passed through the hands of owner and founder Mike Pfotenhauer, undergoing relentless scrutiny. From stitching the first lines of custom-fitted packs, to meticulously designing innovative products with intuitive features, to forging personal relationships with the sewing operators who construct the packs, Mike has been the unbreakable thread that makes Osprey a company like no other.
Mike remembers backpacking as a young boy in his home state of Oregon with his brothers and father, wearing a backpack with an awful fit. With the help of his mother, he learned to sew, and created his first backpack at age 16.
As a young entrepreneur in Santa Cruz, California, Mike opened a retail shop in the front of his rented house where backpackers and travelers – drawn by word of mouth – came to get measured for the custom-fitted, made-to-order packs. Each was constructed by Mike himself over the course of several days. To these avid travelers, the legendary packs were worth the wait. The original name of Osprey Packs was Santa Cruz Recreational Packs.
By 1987, Osprey started selling wholesale and Mike delegated much of the sewing to seven or eight employees while he focused on design.
As the demand for the great-fitting packs increased, Mike and business partner/wife Diane Wren found themselves in Dolores, Colorado, population 864, the exact day a local Gore-Tex factory was closing down. Soon after, they rented the 8,000-square-foot building – originally built in the 1920s as Ford Model-T factory.
They recruited a team of women sewers from the nearby Navajo reservation, many of whom had built upon their traditional sand painting and blanket weaving skills to sew at area factories. Mike trained these experienced sewers in the art and science of constructing Osprey Packs. In 1994, they expanded sewing operations to Cortez, Colorado, and five years later, Osprey moved all operations to this facility in preparation for more expansion.
By 2000, manufacturing in the U.S. became increasingly challenging. As domestic fabric mills closed, sourcing quality materials became more difficult. Moreover, Osprey's competitors had moved manufacturing overseas to reduce product costs and prices. There were issues with capacity. As Osprey signed on with distributors around the globe, the company was missing deadlines and business opportunities. Moving manufacturing overseas was crucial to the company's survival.
Osprey began working with Korean manufacturers that owned and managed facilities in Vietnam. Distance didn't dilute Mike's incessant desire to ensure that his packs were built with the utmost quality and according to his design specs, which meant he was spending months traveling between Cortez and Vietnam. The trip alone took two days.
In 2003, Mike and Diane relocated their family to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and set up a design center where Mike could more closely manage production. Intending to live there for two years, they stayed for four. Mike recalls, "We visited the factories almost daily to make sure production was running smoothly and that our designs were produced accurately and faithfully." Mike hired a Vietnamese designer to create the prototypes and samples. Then he hired another local to manage quality assurance. Now, Osprey's fully-staffed product development office continues to ensure face-to-face relationships with the factory technicians as well as transparency with the company's suppliers.
To celebrate its 35th anniversary in 2009, Osprey launched the All Mighty Guarantee, an enhancement of a lifetime warranty that was already one of the most robust in the industry. Free of charge, the company will repair any damage or defect in its product – whether it was purchased in 1974 or yesterday. If Osprey is unable to repair the item, it will happily replace it. The All Mighty Guarantee: any product, any reason, any era.
Mike isn't the only one ensuring that every product meets the exacting standards worthy of this lifetime guarantee. Hired in 1990 as one of the original Navajo sewers, Marilyn Jones has had a hand in creating Osprey packs for 20 years. She is now responsible for all pack repairs. "Sometimes a pack comes in and I'll recognize it," Marilyn says. "I see how it's held up over the years, and what adventures it's been through. Then, I make sure it goes even further."
Mike says his innovative designs and commitment to top-notch manufacturing shows in every product, even, or especially, decades later. "Osprey is, in large part, about exceptional relationships," says Mike. "Between the pack and its wearer. The pack and its makers. The company and its staff." He continues, "So many of our staff have been with the company for decades. It shows how fervently we believe in our process and products. The All Mighty Guarantee proves it." No wonder there's such a close relationship between the words "Osprey" and "quality". You could say it's a lifetime commitment.

Retro Dear Michele: Always Just Friends
Dear Michele:
I had my marriage annulled 15 years ago. I am trying to find a suitable boyfriend in the hope that it will lead to marriage but no one replies or writes to me except people outside of my posted age range.
I had in the past dated one Catholic boy on the net, but after being friendly to me and going out with me he suddenly got engaged to another woman. Now similar events keep happening to me.
Men who seem to show interest in me treat me as a friend and in front of me they seek other girls. It is as if I am someone who must be there to find someone else.
I am going in circles as again and again this is happening to me. I don't know what to do. I just want to find a guy around my age whom I can marry. Please advise me.
Always Just Friends
The Dreaded "Friendzone"
Dear Always Just Friends,
In terms of being contacted by members, I would suggest keeping your profile as flexible and open as possible. This may mean re-thinking your "must haves." Could you be open to dating men just a few years older than you have considered so far? Is there anything in your profile that is so specific that it might turn away interested men that don't fit the criteria you are describing? Having a trusted and honest friend look at your profile might help.
Objects May Be Closer than They Appear
Now in terms of always just being friends, you do have a dilemma. Being on a date with someone when they are openly pursuing others is just simply disrespectful. You have to ask yourself why you would want to continue to see someone who is giving clear signals that he is looking elsewhere? One point to consider is the possibility that these men do not consider your relationship to be romantic, but as you said, just friends. If that is the case, friends do talk about who they are interested in.
It may be that the men you are with don't share your perspective on the relationship. If that is the case, how did that occur? Are you misreading signals? Have the two of you actually ever discussed the relationship, or if you are on a "date?" It may seem uncomfortable at first, but I would approach the topic with authenticity before assuming they are simply being rude.
You Might Think You Don't Have to Let Go…
Finding a nice guy to marry is a godly desire, placed in all of our hearts. I believe that if He placed it there, He wants you to find the right one. It may mean spending some time alone in prayer, along with together in counsel with another trusted person or clergy to explore if there is any part of you that may be attracted to unavailable men.
We seem to attract what is inside of us, even if we are not aware of it. If this seems to be your history, you may find yourself just not interested in guys that pursue or appear to be ready for a relationship. That is a good way to remain single for a very long time. But the other good news is that the issue can be addressed, either in professional counseling, personal development, or spiritual direction. It's all about feels right for you.
Hope this helps,
Michele Fleming, M.A.

King Tuff (Kyle Thomas) will be bringing his bodacious baseball hat collection to High Noon Saloon on January 30th with support: Stonefield and Madison punk quartet Fire Heads. King Tuff combines elements of psychedelic/garage rock, folk, and country that transports the listener to an endless desert highway.
Kyle Thomas is touring in support of his album "The Other", released in April 2018 under Sub Pop records. The album is Thomas' fourth full-length release under the name King Tuff, and the title in his words is "about hitting rock bottom". This is his first release since 2014, and it almost wasn't made. King Tuff is very much a touring band, and after years on the road, Thomas was exhausted from the fast-paced lifestyle. He had created a persona that he describes as "A crazy party monster", when it was not in fact how he saw himself. This album represents the artistic journey of Thomas finding the voice of his true self. It begins with the atypical somber title track, but jumps right into the next track with his signature upbeat rock n' roll roots with a fresh twist.
Thomas has toured with a variety of bands, but really got his start in Ty Segall's backing band, The Muggers. After years of non-stop touring across the US, Europe, and Australia, every member of King Tuff's band are veterans of the road. Looking forward to seeing how the wild rocker's performance has evolved with his new authentic identity.

With the recent news about data breaches from Amazon S3 buckets, largely resulting from customer mis-configuring their environment, we thought it would be a good time to talk about S3 security and data encryption. S3 offers many security features and Amazon is getting better at explaining how these features work, but there is much unstated. If you've spent any time rummaging around AWS documents, you already know answers to many simple questions are not there. So here we'll take a look at the basics around S3 bucket encryption and how best to use it.
Amazon offers what is called 'Server Side Encryption' for S3, or if you are looking at an S3 bucket in the AWS console, it will be called 'Default encryption' under the properties sheet. You can enable encryption simply by toggling a button in the UI and telling AWS how you would like the key to be managed. One option is AES-256 keys managed per bucket, and the other option is allow KMS -- the AWS Key Management Service -- handle key management for you. Or you can enable these settings via an API call as well.
Server side encryption works much like Transparent Disk Encryption your already familiar with. If S3 receives a valid request to write a file, and the user is authorized to access that bucket, then as the file is written into S3 the data is encrypted. Conversely, if S3 receives a valid read request, and the user is allowed read access to that bucket, the requested object is decrypted and passed to the user. The key will either be provided by the S3 service or the KMS service. Keep in mind that with TDE style encryption, any user who has specific access rights to a file will be provided unencrypted objects upon request.
So, what threats does this help you address?
For most AWS users, this is incredibly compelling as there is no charge for default encryption, does not create a lot of latency and provides some basic protections. That said, there are very good reasons to supplement what AWS -- or any cloud vendor -- provides for storage encryption. For example:
All said, AWS security in general -- and S3 security specifically -- is really good out of the box. Recently reported S3 'breaches' arise either from a simple mistake in access settings or a misunderstanding of how S3 security works, NOT security deficiencies in the Amazon infrastructure. If you couple the proper type of data encryption with IAM policies for user access, and bucket policies to tie network access to only known locations, your data is secure. For additional protection for scenarios like secure data movement between clouds and GDPR compliance, the AWS ecosystem has third party capabilities to supplement this security.

Guardianship of a Sibling
by Stefanie Mastbeth
Every parent of a child with special needs has thought of—and worried—about the idea of who will take care of their child when they cannot. This is an overwhelming thought that crosses many, if not all, parents' minds. Planning for the future is something a parent of a child with special needs learns as second nature. This is something my own parents were very good at since having my sister Amelia.
Amelia's Story
Amelia is currently 19 years old and is diagnosed with cerebral palsy due to medical malpractice at birth. Amelia is fully dependent on the care of others and is unable to walk, talk, feed herself, or perform any daily tasks for herself.
From a very early age, I knew I would be Amelia's caretaker if something were to happen to my parents. Being the older sister, I proudly took on that role. I was very involved in Amelia's therapies, doctor's appointments, and even her schooling. At a very young age, I knew what to do when and if my sister had a seizure or if she was choking on food due to her poor swallow. I understood what a VP shunt was and what it did. I knew the differences between occupational therapy and physical therapy. I was truly an involved sibling in my younger sibling's life.
Some may disagree with the amount of involvement I had in Amelia's life; however, I believe it has allowed me to willingly and easily accept the role as her guardian. Last year I was granted co-guardianship alongside my parents as Amelia's guardian. This is a role I took on at 24 years old.
On that day, I became responsible for another life. I also relieved my parents' anxiety over who would take care of Amelia when they no longer could. Although taking care of someone with special needs can be challenging and sometimes terrifying, it is a role I knew I wanted to take on from a young age.
I would encourage families of multiple children who have a child with special needs to follow in my parents' footsteps. Allow your children to be as involved in their siblings' life as they desire to be. Start discussions young and have them often. Allow for your children to understand the complexities of their sibling and answer the many questions they may have.
My involvement in Amelia's life and caretaking during childhood prepared me to have an easy transition to become her co-guardian. I am honored my parents trust me to continue to take care of Amelia when they no longer can, and believe I will continue to take care of her in the careful way they have.

Unique Installation Challenge Category
It starts as you come into the city of Grand Rapids via the highways crossing over the Grand River – waves and circles. Commercial manufacturers have called Grand Rapids home for generations, and in this mecca of design and innovation, Spectrum Health went beyond expectations with this project at Helen DeVos Children's Hospital to incorporate a city-wide concept.
The concept of waves, circles, and specific colors that calm and inspire - is on billboards, city street light signs, print media, electronic media, and social media. Century was asked by the Spectrum Hospital design team if they could plan, coordinate, install and deliver on time this huge project that covers 25,000 square feet. This wave pattern flatters a walkway over Michigan Avenue and continues around the high-rise hospital using reflective materials and tinted glass.
As a unique installation challenge category entry, this project demanded special attention to detail. Hospital work can be tricky at best, especially in a children's emergency department. Aligning the proper degree of the wave in floor patterns to match outdoor structures and signage along freeways, performing exacting work with colors to create floors that coordinate with the top of blankets, cubicle curtains, directional signage, and furniture was not an easy feat. Century was tasked with the challenge of careful cuts of varying circles in carpet, vinyl, and walk off mats – and we accepted with a resounding yes!
All Starnet flooring professionals face challenges: getting the right color material, aligning installers with "the plan", and making sure staging and acclimation considerations are under control, etc. However, in hospitals you face even more installation challenges: working with children and families, a 24-hour environment, partial hallway blockages, turning off the right sections of sprinklers at the right time, coordinating technical support for computer shutdowns and moves, temporary signage to move patients, families, and employees to safe areas. All these things while still protecting access and privacy to children and their families in times of struggle. At a moment's notice, all things can come to a stop as a child is being carried into emergency for help. Our workers constantly strived to stay on schedule, follow the rules, and occasionally re-open elevators and stop work simply because a child comes first.
As you enter from the street, you first notice the walk-off carpet tiles with intricately cut circles of varying colors, and then the Children's Emergency through sliding double doors to stand at the charge desk on a beautifully designed entrance mat from Mats Inc. The entrance mat also features the same colors and shapes welcoming everyone to the Helen DeVos Children's Hospital. One notices the curvature of the office desks that emulate the waves on the building outside, and circle cut-outs in the desk fronts that match the spacious waiting room filled with colorful furniture, along with more waves and circles. You can see the children wanting to play on the floor, use the toys and wait their turn to be seen.
Once you enter the hallways, the theme continues atop of bed items, cubicle curtains and more. The waves on the floor disappear into a corner room and then emerge again somewhere else to keep the pattern going throughout the room. Spectrum employees have told us that people stop them in the halls to compliment the thought and effort put into the project. It is inspiring, eclectic, and completes the entire process that began outside nearly two years ago by aligning our wonderful Starnet vendors, our talented installation team and a lot of commitment from our two key employees, Steve Frozley, Account Manager, and Jeremy Cook, Project Manager.
The team at Spectrum was dedicated and helpful in making this project a complete success. Century would like to recognize Spectrum's on-staff design team for creating this masterpiece, as well as our Starnet vendors. As you can see in the photographs, the final project delivered is beautiful, contemporary, and blends all aspects that incorporate a city, a hospital, architecture, and most importantly colors were chosen to keep kids calm, happy and engaged in their healing. The entry mat combines all aspects of design, beauty, waves, circles, and completes this project that is truly one for the children.
See above summary.

Christmas Maths: Twelve Days
While we're in the Christmas season, here's a Christmas-themed maths problem.
The Christmas season is the 12 days from Christmas Day (25th December) until the day before Epiphany (which is 6th January, so the day before is 5th). From that 12 day period comes the song, The Twelve Days of Christmas. Many of you will know it, but for those who don't:

EDITORIAL NOTE: What follows are the remarks of John Witherspoon to the Giles Sutherland Rich American Inn of Court meeting from January 18, 2017. Published here with permission.
One summer night in 1926, while staying at the Willard Hotel, Giles Sutherland Rich made a decision that set in motion a chain of events that account for our being here tonight. As a young man, he wanted to be a pilot, because, he later said, he thought commercial aviation "might have a future. But he failed his eye exam. And so he had to look for a different career.
His father was a patent lawyer in New York. When he was growing up, Giles often visited his father's office and was intrigued by what he saw. In the summer of 1926, he drove his father to Washington to interview some examiners. On the trip, he learned more about what his father did and why he liked it.
They stayed at the Willard Hotel, which was just across the street from the Patent Office in those days. It was there, he told a dinner audience celebrating his 90th birthday one evening in that very same hotel, that he decided to become a patent lawyer himself. And so he got his law degree and embarked on what turned out to be a 27-year career in private practice. During that time, he came to greatly admire the work of Judge Learned Hand, and he sometimes visited his courtroom just to observe.
Then, in the summer of 1956, thirty years after that trip to Washington with his father, and three and a half years after passage of a new Patent Act that he helped write, this technology-loving, photographer-extraordinaire, Harvard College and Columbia Law School educated, 52-year old New York patent lawyer moved to Washington, took the oath as an Associate Judge of the United States Court of Customs and Patent Appeals, began deciding cases and writing landmark opinions, and continued doing so until shortly before he died from lymphoma at age 95.
Early in the morning of June 10, 1999, Judge Raymond Clevenger sent this message to his law clerks: "Judge Rich slipped away peacefully and quickly around 8 p.m. last night. We have lost one of the truly great jurists, and a genuinely wonderful man, but his time had come, which he knew and accepted with the grace that typified his every move."
Judge Rich never took senior status, and at the time of his death he was the oldest active federal judge in our nation's history. He never missed a day of hearings, which included 26 years of attending oral arguments at the CCPA, a five-judge Court that heard all of its cases sitting en banc. For decades, Judge Rich was widely regarded as the foremost authority on United States patent law.
Without question, he and Judge Learned Hand wrote more influential opinions in patent cases than any other judges in the 20th century. He was the first patent lawyer appointed to the CCPA and, according to one writer, he was the first patent lawyer appointed to any court in the federal judiciary. He authored 892 published opinions. They are all listed at the end of Volume 9, Number 1 (1999) of The Federal Circuit Bar Journal (subtitled "Tribute to the Life and Work of the Honorable Giles Sutherland Rich").
Also in that volume is an interview conducted by Professor Janice Mueller, one of his former law clerks. In the interview, Judge Rich explained why the "patent exhaustion doctrine" based on a "first sale" of a patented article by a patentee is "nonsensical." His reasoning is very straight forward. The patent grant does not include a right to sell. A sale, then, cannot exhaust a patent right. There is no right to exhaust. The results in the so-called "exhaustion" cases may be correct, he says, but the reasoning is wrong.
The rights of the buyer are governed by principles of property law, or the law of sales, or both, and perhaps the antitrust law, but the patent law has nothing to do with those rights. He concludes: "Let's clean up the thinking about this law." I hope one of you will accept that challenge. Now is a very good time.
During his 43 years on the bench, Judge Rich had one secretary and 39 law clerks. I was the sixth and served during the years 1964-1966. In February of 1966, the famous Graham v. John Deere case was decided by the Supreme Court. Graham was the first case in which the Supreme Court considered section 103 of the 1952 Patent Act. Judge Rich was a principal author of section 103. He and a few others, including a highly respected member of the Patent Office Board of Appeals named Pat Federico, worked for years to get it enacted. It was intended to put an end to the old case law "requirement for invention" that had grown up over the years.
According to those cases, to be patentable, an invention had to "amount to invention." I'm not making this up! It was a vague and subjective standard. Judge Rich called it a judge's "plaything." So, section 103 was enacted. And in 1964, Judge Rich titled his famous Kettering Award acceptance speech: "The Vague Concept of 'Invention' as Replaced by Section 103 of the 1952 Patent Act."
In 1972, he titled another important speech: "Laying the Ghost of the 'Invention' Requirement." Both of these papers are found in Volume 14, Number 1 (2004) of The Federal Circuit Bar Journal (subtitled "Judge Rich Commemorative Issue"). But were the "vague concept of invention" and the "invention requirement" really laid to rest? For 60 years they were. But not now, that judge's "plaything" is back. The Supreme Court has injected the notion of an "inventive concept" into section 101 jurisprudence. That phrase is just as vague, just as subjective, and just as mischievous today as it was in 1952. Judge Rich must be turning in his grave!
Around the middle of the 20th century, there was another troubling development in the patent law. The patent misuse doctrine had been expanded to the point of essentially eviscerating the law of contributory infringement. Judge Rich once compared what was left of it to the smile that remained on the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland. And so, when he came into prominence, the patent system was very sick. Patent owners couldn't tell whether their patents were valid. And patents that were valid could only be asserted against direct infringers, lest their owners be held to have engaged in misuse. Both of these developments were the result of Supreme Court decisions.
Though not widely known, Judge Rich was the principal author of section 271 of the '52 Act, which addressed the contributory infringement/patent misuse problem in its subsections (c) and (d). This subject was of great interest to him early in his career. In 1942, at the age of 38, he published a series of articles, entitled "The Relation between Patent Practices and the Anti-Monopoly Laws." They comprise the first five chapters of Volume 14 of The Federal Circuit Bar Journal that I just mentioned. After the '52 Patent Act came to be, Judge Rich labored for more than a decade — writing opinions, writing articles, and giving speeches — painstakingly trying to educate the courts, including his own, patent examiners, and the bar of section 103's very existence, first of all, and, secondly, of its significance.
It was a long, uphill fight. The Patent Office was especially resistant. Examiners continued their old ways of rejecting claims for "lack of invention." I personally received such rejections ten years after the statute was enacted. But the CCPA, led by Judge Rich, kept insisting that rejections be based on the statute. This was new for examiners, and required a different way of thinking.
One career examiner and member of the Board of Appeals went so far as to say that Judge Rich was the "most hated man" in the Patent Office, and that I, as one of his former clerks, should not be on the Board. My coming to the Board directly from the private sector was also disqualifying in the minds of some. It had not been done before. Over time, attitudes changed and new thinking evolved. Twenty years later, Judge Rich had become one of the most admired and most respected men in the Patent Office.
Watching that transition unfold over the years was truly a thing of beauty. Watching his reaction to the Supreme Court's decision in Graham on the day it was handed down was also a thing of beauty.
To digress briefly, Judge Rich was fond of chocolate covered raisins. He kept a box of them in the top drawer of a file cabinet that sat in the room where I worked. From time to time, he would come in and take one, or perhaps two, little clusters of raisins, and then go back to work. On the morning that Graham came down, George Hutchinson, the then Clerk of the Court, brought him a copy of the opinion. He took it into his chambers and closed the door. He had reason to be concerned. The Court could have done a number of things not to his liking, such as finding the statute unconstitutional, or finding it to be a mere codification of the existing law. After about an hour, he came out of his chambers and with a little smile on his face said: "Well, John, I think we've turned the corner." He then strolled over to the file cabinet and took not one, not two, but what appeared to be a handful of chocolate covered raisins.
Five months after his death, in November 1999, this Inn devoted its entire meeting to Judge Rich's life. I was invited to speak. But rather than deliver a speech, I read a hypothetical letter that I had composed to Judge Rich's mother, Sara Sutherland Rich. It went like this:
Washington, D.C.
November 16, 1999
Dear Mrs. Rich:
Tonight I will be talking to some fellow members of the Giles Sutherland Rich American Inn of Court about our namesake—your son—and I am writing to tell you what I plan to say.
He was a Master teacher—by which I mean he didn't teach at all. Those around him simply learned—as though by osmosis and by observation.
Working in his chambers was the lawyer's equivalent to a young engineer working in Edison's lab. We observed a slow, deliberate reader—no speed reading courses for him—and always with a writing instrument in hand to make numerous marginal notations—including some with a bite! We saw how he wrote—with utmost precision, conciseness and punch. He talked about making one's writing "march". We observed a very analytical mind—one leery of so-called "doctrines" in the law, and one ever alert to "embroidering", a term used by him to describe the process of a first court paraphrasing a case holding—or worse yet a statute—followed by a second court paraphrasing the paraphrase, and so on, until the original holding becomes completely lost.
He fit the textbook description of a judge—intelligent, well-educated, possessing an in-depth working knowledge of the law, extremely dedicated and hard-working. He looked like a judge. I shall always picture in my mind that tallish, erect, white-haired, stately figure, in his early '60s, walking down the marble corridor outside his then chambers. He displayed a wonderful blend of the theoretical and the pragmatic—but with a strong tilt toward the latter.
He had a remarkable ability to clear his mind once a case had been decided, and to move on to the next with no lingering afterthoughts. But there was much more to this man than his work. He loved science and he loved the law. But his greatest love of all, by far, was his love of his fellow man.
Through his example and encouragement, many of us were inspired to participate in bar associations, to teach, and to otherwise give back to the profession. He especially enjoyed young people, and to learn about their lives. As was the case with his nearly 40 other clerks, our family became part of his.
When asked about the things she remembers, my wife said she will never forget "that photographer", who showed up at Sibley Hospital, and took about a dozen pictures of our only child when he was just a few days old.
I interviewed for my clerkship in June 1964—35 years almost to the day before his death. He asked me a number of questions about my wife, which I found rather puzzling. The puzzle was ultimately solved, but not until years later—in 1991. On October 1st of that year, our Inn held its inaugural meeting. He had been asked to speak about his life. It was a beautiful speech. He spoke about many things. One—"an important subject" he called it—was about the three women in his life. He said you were the first, and that you were a very strong influence on him. He described you as a calm, collected person who subtly influenced her "little boy" (his words) to be a thoughtful person.
One thing he said you taught him early in the game (as he put it) was this little verse, which he recited from memory:
The wise old owl, lived in an oak
The more he saw, the less he spoke;
The less he spoke, the more he heard.
Why can't we be like that old bird?
Well, Mother Rich, your "little boy" turned out to be exactly like that "old bird."
The other two women in his life, he said, were the two he had been married to—the first for 22 years before she died—and the second for 38 years at the time of his talk. He said they both "filled gaps in my education, making me into whatever I now am." This, from a graduate of two of our finest schools? I thought it spoke volumes about the character of the man. It also solved my puzzle.
I must stop now to allow others to speak. I don't know quite what they will say. But I do know this: After all have spoken, everyone tonight will agree that the likes of your son bring to mind these words from Romeo and Juliet:
When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
Thank you, Mrs. Rich, for sharing him with us.
John Witherspoon
So what is his legacy?
As I indicated, when he came on the scene around the middle of the last century, the patent system was on life support. And it had been that way for quite a few years. The system was not respected and had little support from decision-makers in this town. Some would have been pleased to see it die.
A federal judge opined that the patent system had outlived its usefulness when, according to him, large corporations were getting all the patents. Another federal judge called the Patent Office the "sickest institution our Government has ever invented." A Supreme Court justice described patent examiners as "minor bureaucrats" who sit at desks and dole out monopolies in secret proceedings.
Many people did not consider patent lawyers to be lawyers at all. They were considered "nerds" who practiced science, not law. Almost all of them practiced in small boutique firms. Patent law was taught in only one or two of the country's law schools. The few patent law associations that existed had little influence on Capitol Hill.
But today things are quite different.
The patent system is widely considered to be a strong economic engine. It is supported by politicians in this town at the highest levels. Patents are sought in greater and greater numbers, because they have value. Patents are enforced and licensed more than before. Many patent lawyers now practice in general practice law firms. Intellectual property law associations have sprung up all over the country. Patent law is now taught in a great many law schools.
What brought these changes about?
Many things contributed, not the least of which was the creation of the Federal Circuit. But in my mind three things stand out above all else: (1) the enactment of section 103, (2) the enactment of section 271, and (3) the decision of the CCPA in In re Chakrabarty, which was affirmed by the Supreme Court in 1980. These are foundation stones.
They are foundation stones that the Federal Circuit had the good fortune to inherit at its inception. They are foundation stones that, with the aid of sound decisions by the Federal Circuit, enabled the patent system to come back to life and to flourish. And they are foundation stones – all three of them — that are the work product of Giles Sutherland Rich.
So, if you want to find his legacy. Just open your eyes and look around. And don't forget. It all started with a failed eye exam!

You have the digital infrastructure, so what?
It is too easy when talking about technology in schools to become so focused on the kit that the learning outcomes become lost. Drawing on the experience of digital learning in my own setting, I shall be sharing the lessons we have learnt since rolling out iPads across our schools. I shall be challenging colleagues to consider what exactly they are trying to achieve in a digital learning environment and demonstrating how the use of technology can be transformational.
Tricia Kelleher joined the Stephen Perse Foundation in 2001 when it was an all-girls, academic powerhouse. Much has changed, including the introduction of two co-educational Pre-Preps and the merger with a nearby, non-selective preparatory school – Dame Bradbury's. While the academic pride remains, and the results actually are higher than ever, Tricia has moved the emphasis of education towards inter-disciplinary learning with a concern for development of skills or aptitudes which are the building blocks to enable young people to be prepared for a rapidly changing, globally connected future of many unknowns. Introduction of IB, co-education (within a diamond formation structure) and leadership in the digital world are all key to Tricia's and the School's vision for education. Such has been the success of the Foundation it was named Independent School of the Year in 2014.
Prior to moving to Cambridge, Tricia was the first female Deputy Head of Brentwood School, one of the first schools to adopt a diamond formation (a boys and a girls section 11-16). She was previously Head of History and Head of Year 7 at Brighton and Hove High School.

Shun Toxic Toys; Usher in Green Toys for Christmas
This Christmas, the focus is on eco-friendly toys. After several instances of foreign-made toys being proved toxic and then being recalled, several companies are responding to the consumer demand of having greener toys that are safer for children to play with.
Almost 17 million toys were recalled in 2007 because they violated the federal lead paint standards. The Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) recalled 55,000 units of children's costume jewelry in January 2010, since they contained high levels of cadmium.
In June 2010, 12 million promotional drinking glasses which were sold at McDonald's were recalled for having cadmium in the painted coating.
Parents have been increasingly concerned about the safety of the toys and other products that their children are handling, but making a choice is becoming time consuming and stressful, especially with the season for giving upon them.
Several small American businesses are stepping up to the plate to meet this requirement and are trying to figure out how to make the safest, healthiest, greenest toys on a small scale level.
Green Toys, based in San Francisco, uses recycled plastic milk jugs to create a line of classic toys that are packaged in recycled cardboard.
The company now sells its products and toys at 3,000 retail locations and also exports to 12 foreign countries. Green Toys products are sold at stores like Pottery Barn, Barnes & Noble, Whole Foods, Amazon and the Museum of Modern Art.
One of the key points about ensuring eco-friendliness in creating these kinds of products is to make sure that an eco-friendly process is the base. Like Green Toys using recycled plastic rather than making new plastic.
Another green toy company, thirty-five-year-old Hosung NY, based in New York, switched from traditional toy making to create a line of organic plush toys five years ago. The line is called MiYim and is now sold at Target and Babies R Us.
Although organic and green toys can be more expensive than the regular toys, knowing that it is safe for your child and then bringing the concept of recycling and reusing old organic toys can help the industry to grow.
Other small companies that offer green children's products include Jess Brown Rag Dolls, Rich Frog, Haba Beachwood toy, Eco Time Toys, Lana organic toys, PlanToys, Apple Park and Under the Nile plush toys.
The advantage of having small companies focus on children's products is that they are better equipped to deal with change, and can switch over to green practices faster and better than a big company can.
They can work closely with the suppliers and also acquire their materials domestically. Production units located in Asian countries are detached from the creation process and are often unsophisticated.
