METAMORPHOSIS By Charles V. de Vet [Transcriber's Note: This etext was produced from Galaxy Magazine December 1960. Extensive research did not uncover any evidence that the U.S. copyright on this publication was renewed.] The man I searched for could be anybody at all. If I didn't find him, there'd be nobody at all. One more city. The pattern went on. One more city to search for a man I did not know, whose face I would not recognize. I had no copy of either his fingerprints or encephalograph, or any other clue to his identity. Yet he had to be found. At one time he had been my best friend. His name was Howard Zealley then. He wouldn't be using the same name now. And the "bug" in his brain would by this time have made him a stranger. There was only one way the job could be done: I had to make contact--even though I might not be aware of it at the time--reveal who I was, and hope he'd come out after me. I rented a room in a cheap hotel. But not so cheap that it wouldn't have a grid connection with information service. I wrote my name big on the register: MAX CALOF. There was always the chance that he would see it. He would remember the name. The room was small, a standard "living-in" cubicle. Which was all right. I didn't intend to sleep here. I hadn't slept in nine years now--a year before the chase began. I kicked off my saddle shoes and walked on stockinged feet to the vid coin slot and dropped in a half dollar. The screen flickered once and the face of a beautiful, smiling woman came into focus. "May I help you, sir?" she asked in a pleasant, very friendly voice. I realized that the woman was not actually speaking, as she appeared to be doing. She was merely a woman image, with her voice and facial expressions synchronized in some way with the word impulses coming from information central. * * * * * I stretched out on the bed, folding the pillow under my head to have an unobstructed view of the screen. "Give me the names of the city's two hundred most prominent male citizens," I said. There was no sign of surprise on the woman face, but I got the usual expressive long pause from central. The request was unusual. Central relays always had trouble with the proper definition of "prominent." "Any particular category?" the woman image finally asked. "All categories," I answered. Another pause. Even a mechanical brain would take a bit of time to assemble that information, but get it I would. After a while the woman began. "Edward Anderson. Russell Baker. Joseph Dillon. Francis...." As her gently modulated voice went on, I closed my eyes, keeping my mind blank, letting each name pass without resistance through my consciousness. Sometimes a hunch came that way. There was no need to make a written list. I had total recall. I became aware that I had opened my shirt collar and that I was perspiring. I hadn't noticed how hot the day was or that the room had no air conditioning. I took a minute to concentrate. The perspiration dried and my body adjusted itself to the room's temperature and humidity. When I was comfortable again, I returned my attention to the woman's voice. At the end of the reading, no name had stayed with me. I opened my eyes. "Eliminate all except those within the age range of twenty to forty," I said. Zealley would be thirty-seven by now--but probably appear younger. "Got that?" "Yes sir." "How many left?" I asked. "Sixty-four." It was always a temptation to cut the list further. I was weary of the seemingly endless repetition of the same routine and the frustrating lack of any results. Eight years is a long time to search for a man. Yet I could not afford to be careless. I was gambling everything on my having figured out the way Zealley's mind operated, how he would act, where he would hide. When the woman finished speaking, I walked to the vid and switched it off. I noted by the wall clock that it was almost noon. I hadn't had breakfast yet. In the back of my mind, as I ordered a meal, was the certainty that someday this appetite too would grow sated and dull. There were so few satisfactions left.... * * * * * The first name on my list was Edward Anderson. The city's mayor. It took me two hours to get into his office, and two minutes to be on my way out again. I had asked my questions and met the usual blank response. On the street I spent another hour strolling through the shopping district. No shadower picked me up. Which pretty well eliminated Anderson--or anyone in close contact with him. Second name, Russell Baker. Industrialist. Minneapolis Mining & Allied Products. I got as far as his secretary, John Roesler. "What can I do for you?" Roesler asked. He was a big-boned, handsome man, with an air of sleepy indolence. He cleaned and trimmed his fingernails with a small gold penknife. "I'd like to see Mr. Baker," I said. "What about?" "Confidential business." "No one gets in to see a man like Mr. Baker that easy. If they could, he'd be pestered by every crackpot in town." This was as far as I was going to get. I had to make the best of it. "Will you give him a message then?" I asked. Roesler shrugged. "If I think he should have it." "I would advise you to deliver it," I said making my tone as impressive as possible. "If he doesn't get it, you may be out of a job." His eyebrows raised slightly. "Tell him," I said, "that Max Calof wants to see him," and spelled my last name for him. "And what should I say you want to see him about?" I had caught a slight break in Roesler's composure. "About a mutual friend--Howard Zealley," I replied. "I think he'll be interested." Roesler hid a yawn behind a well-manicured hand. "We'll see," he said, and I went back out. Twice within ten minutes I observed the same pale-faced youth trailing me, and my pulse gave a great racing bound. This could be it. I stopped and studied the men's hats in a shop window. From the side of my eye I saw the youth stop also. He leaned against a traffic light stanchion and kicked idly at a scrap of paper on the sidewalk. I wandered through a department store, stopping to purchase a toothbrush and a handkerchief, and he followed, keeping always a discreet distance behind. My last doubt was removed. I returned to my hotel. With luck, the hunter would now become the hunted. In my room I pulled a grip from under the bed and took out a rubber-handled screwdriver and a pair of pliers, a pocket knife, several lengths of copper wire, and a small instrument in a black case about the size of my fist. Climbing on a straight-back chair, I removed the frosted globe from the room's center light. I bared the wires, carefully spliced on two pieces of wire, connected the black box, and replaced the globe. I had a little more trouble with the electrical clock's wiring, but at the end I was satisfied. The time was two-fifteen. I made my setting for three o'clock. Zealley should be here before then. If not, I could always set the timing back. There was nothing to do now except wait. * * * * * Nearly a half hour passed from the time I finished my preparations, and I was beginning to think Zealley would be late, when the door of my compartment was kicked savagely open. The man who followed the kick was lean and dark, with wavy brown hair combed meticulously into place. A bent nose dispelled any illusion of softness. I was disappointed. If this was Zealley, it was not at all the way I had expected him to look. I had thought he would be more polished perhaps, more intelligent, with more of the outward signs of success. This weighing I did with a fleeting glance, and passed to the two men who followed my first visitor: Roesler and the pale-faced youth. Roesler was wearing a yellow hat. I swung my legs over the side of the bed where I had been lying and sat up. "Come in," I said. The sarcasm was not wasted on Roesler. He kept his gaze on me, but spoke to the two men with him. "Stay by the door, George," he ordered the boy. "You, Steve," he addressed the lean man, "get on the other side of him. Stay close." He let himself ease into the lounge chair behind him. I decided to stir things up a bit. "I see you brought a boy," I said, nodding at the one by the door. "This might turn out to be a man's job." Roesler glanced aside at the youth, whose lips pulled away from his teeth and eyes filled with quick hate. He pulled a switch-blade knife from his pocket and snapped it open. I found myself making a swift reappraisal. The lad was not the simple hood type I had first judged him to be. There was a flat look about the wide whites of his eyes that warned of something apart from courage. "Not yet, George," Roesler said, and his voice, though almost gentle, stopped the boy before he took a step. Roesler pulled his penknife from a coat pocket and began trimming his nails. "Someday you're going to run out of fingernails," I said. Roesler laughed soundlessly, amused. I glanced unobtrusively at the clock. Ten minutes to three. Time passed slowly in a situation like this. Roesler regarded me speculatively. "You don't seem very nervous," he said. "Should I be?" "I would think so," he said. "If I were in your position, I think I'd be nervous." "Would you?" "Take off your clothes," he said, with no change of tone. I took in a long breath and began opening my shirt. Another glance at the clock told me I needed at least eight more minutes. I had to stall. * * * * * Roesler made no attempt to hurry me. He was a man certain of his control of the situation. I kicked off my shorts, the last of my clothes, and for the first time felt ill at ease. Standing stripped to the raw before these men put me at a mental disadvantage. I feared them only to the point of discretion, but I had lost a bit of my poise. I sat back on the edge of the bed and lit a cigarette, doing my best to appear unconcerned. Roesler turned to the dark man. "The shade, Steve," he directed. "Pull it down a minute." Steve did as he was told. The fact that my skin glowed with a faint phosphorescent sheen in the semidarkness was no surprise to me. Roesler leaned forward and the penknife, which he had set on one knee, slipped off. Without attention he caught it before it touched the floor. Which confirmed my original suspicion. No one had reflexes that fast--except Zealley--and myself. I had estimated him correctly then. He had been too clever to expose himself to any searcher; he had disdained the prestige he might have acquired, staying in the background, but in a position where he could observe any pursuer if and when he appeared. Roesler-Zealley had noted the brief play of understanding on my face and he nodded. "I had to be certain, Max," he said. "You've changed too, you know." Which was true. The mites in our veins had altered us both considerably through the years. We had developed some small empathy with them and they often performed as we wished. It was not that they could read our thoughts. Their activities were probably only reactions to our emotional and glandular functions. Moreover, they acted as often in ways that suited their own designs, changing our body structures, and regulating our metabolisms, seemingly at random. "What did you want with me, Max?" Zealley asked, still being very pleasant. "Did you come to join me in conquering the world?" He was being facetious and I did not answer him. He knew why I was here. Overhead a faint click came from the light globe, a sound that probably only I noticed, and I knew that my alarm had gone off. I judged it would take the police only a few minutes to reach here. "Or are you going to pretend that the medics have found a way to boil the bugs out of us?" Zealley asked. Did I detect a concealed pleading for just that assurance? I shook my head. "No, they haven't found any way, Howard," I obliterated the hope. "Good old Max." Bitterness crept into his voice. "Faithful, selfless old Max. Going to save the world. Going to save the whole of humanity," he amended expansively. He hadn't changed too much. Sarcasm had always come natural with him, which made it no more likable. * * * * * He might have said dull, stupid, cloddish old Max. The words would have better matched the tone of his voice. At that, he might be right. The authorities back on our home world of New Nebraska had said pretty much the same thing, only more diplomatically. "You and Zealley are different," I'd been told. "That was one of the reasons we made you a team, originally. Zealley is clever and imaginative, but basically an egotist. A to-hell-with-the-other-fellow character. Fortunately, you're not like him. You're a man who accepts his responsibilities, a man with a strong sense of duty. We know we can trust you." Whether it was actually trust or only that they had little choice, I had not let myself decide. "We had such high hopes." Zealley was reminiscing, speaking more to himself than to me. We had. We'd been a two-man survey crew, mapping out new territory for the future expansion of the human race. On a world listed only as TR768-L-14 on the star maps, we had run into disaster. We found the planet unfit for human habitation, but not before we'd been bitten several times by things we never did see. No infection had resulted and we thought little about it, until we were a good part of the way home. Gradually then we noticed a quickening of our sensory processes, a well-being of body too pronounced to be normal. During the next several weeks of flight, Zealley wrote a historical novel that I was certain would turn out to be a classic. I found myself mastering, without difficulty, higher math, which had always been beyond me before. At the end of the third month we stopped needing sleep. During the days and nights that followed we conversed brilliantly on subjects that had not interested us before, and the depth of which we couldn't have fathomed if they had interested us. We were at a loss to explain the reason for the change, though we knew it tied in somehow with our stay on TR768-L-14, and probably with the things that had bitten us. The cause was of secondary importance; the marvel of the reality was what intrigued us. We looked forward with poorly restrained excitement to displaying our new mental and physical dexterity. * * * * * The Space Bureau authorities were every bit as impressed as we had anticipated. The medics readily found that we had been infested by a germ, but by a benevolent germ, a true symbiote. That discovery was followed by months of tests and examinations. Between sessions with our own medics and laboratory men and various visiting specialists, we amused ourselves by showing our new abilities. At least a dozen times a day I had to put someone down in an arm wrestle. Even when they devised a way to pit two against me at a time, I had little difficulty besting them. Zealley's displays tended toward the more flamboyant. One of the tricks he delighted in was taking a razor blade, and, while his audience watched with repelled fascination, cut a long gash in his forearm. For an instant the blood would ebb out, then quickly clot and cease to flow. The next day he would show them the arm, where a thin red line at the most would remain to mark where the wound had been. Apparently Zealley's reminiscing had kept pace with my own. "It seems such a shame, doesn't it, Max?" he asked. He was genuinely sad. So was I. Test results and theories developed fast in those early days. The findings showed that the symbiotes repaired damage and faults in our systems and protected us against disease. It was even hazarded that they would prolong our lives indefinitely. Yet we were warned against complacency. The bug--we always spoke of it in the singular, even though we knew the original mites had spawned in our blood streams--could not act quickly enough to save our lives in the event of major damage to essential organs or the brain. Also, we could drown. Or we could die in a fall from a great height. Or starve to death. The first intimation we had that all was not well had started as a rumor. Two of the staff biochemists had been experimenting with transplants of the bugs in fruit flies. They had turned up something sensational. Zealley was not present when I received the disastrous news. At the end of what would normally be a twenty- or thirty-year cycle--the chemists were not able to estimate it any closer--the symbiotes evolved into tiny winged insects. At that stage they acquired size and flying strength by devouring the tissues of their hosts. In twenty or thirty years, then, our benign cohabitants would kill us--and spread out by the millions to infest other available animal life. Unless they were destroyed, not only would Zealley and I die, but all humanity on all the worlds would face the prospect of becoming infested. Zealley must have surmised what was coming. He had disappeared a week earlier. Before he left, I had noticed considerable change in our body and facial features. He would very soon be impossible to identify. The only lead the authorities ever got on him was that he had fled to Earth. At that particular time Earth and New Nebraska were involved in one of the more serious interworld bickerings. Citizens of each were denied admittance to the other, which was probably the reason Zealley had chosen Earth as a haven. New Nebraska's authorities called me in and briefed me on what I was to do. They were able to smuggle me to Earth with forged papers that identified me as a citizen of another planet. Zealley had to be found--and I was their one hope. * * * * * "You have some interest in that clock?" Zealley's words jarred me out of my retrospection. Silently I cursed myself for letting my thoughts and eyes stray. I was dismayed, too, to find that only a few minutes had passed since I'd last looked. Even so, the police were taking longer than I had calculated. Zealley abandoned all pretense of joviality. "Now, George," he said to the pale-faced youth, who still stood by the door with his knife in his hand. The boy started toward me and I tensed, shifting my feet to face him. Something crashed against my right temple and only then did I remember Steve, the man behind me. The force of the blow knocked me sideways but not unconscious. I started to turn and a second glancing blow split the skin across my forehead. I slid off the bed on the side away from him. I retained just enough control of my faculties to get to my feet as the youth reached me and to grab him in a bear hug, but not fast enough to keep the long blade of his knife from ripping into my stomach. The symbiote, though able to repair damage, was not able to block pain. The bite of the knife clenched my muscles in a spasm of agony, and dimly I heard the youth give a grunt of distress as my arms squeezed and bent him back at the waist. Something landed on my foot--his knife. With blackness closing in, my arms lost their strength and I slid down his body. I blanked out, but only for an instant. The kid had fallen with me and my hands clutched his ankles as I fought to stay conscious. I stood up, still holding his ankles. Putting everything I had into the effort, I swung him around and sent him crashing into Steve, who was just rounding the foot of the bed. They went down together. I gasped in air, clutching the gash in my stomach with hands that were sticky and wet with blood. I turned toward Zealley. He was still seated in his chair, still smiling. One hand, resting negligently in his lap, held a snub-nosed pistol. He could have killed me any time before this, but he had wanted the fun of watching me fight for my life. He opened his mouth to say something but closed it abruptly as someone pounded at the door. "Come in!" I shouted through the froth in my mouth. "Damn you," Zealley said softly. He wiped the pistol on his trousers and slid it across the floor away from him. The door burst inward. "These men tried to kill me," I told the two police officers. * * * * * Zealley's bland features simulated surprise. "I?" he asked. "I heard noise in here as I was passing in the hall. I came in to see what the trouble was." "He's lying," I said as the policemen turned inquiringly toward me. "He's with them." Zealley shook his head sadly. "He must be delirious--" he began, but the evidence was all on my side. "Shut up!" one of the officers said, grabbing him by the shirt front and jerking him to his feet. I had started dressing immediately. I wanted to hide the wound in my stomach. It burned, but I kept my face blank. Zealley was silent now. If I had been just superficially wounded, his bluff would have worked--I'd have healed right there and then. I hadn't, so he had to wait for developments. I hoped I could give him some. While one of the officers worked to revive the youth--the thug named Steve was already on his feet--I went to the bowl in the alcove and washed the blood off my hands and stomach. They had the kid upright when I turned around: "Are you hurt bad?" the policeman holding Zealley asked me. "Not too bad." I managed to keep my voice steady. "I'll be all right until you can send an ambulance." He stood uncertainly for a moment. "I don't like to leave you alone, but I can put in a call from our cruiser. The ambulance should get here within ten minutes." "I'll be OK," I said. The sound of the closing door was the only way I had to know they were gone. For the past half minute, my tight grip on the bed headboard was all that held me erect. Now the starch went out of my body and I crumpled to the floor. This time I did not blank out, but lay twisted and tight, waiting for the pain to stop--or to kill me. A small easing of the torment came and I forced myself to relax. I was able now to steel my mind against the racking spasms and pull myself to my feet. I was not at all safe yet; even if I was not mortally wounded, it would take the symbiote hours to repair the damage. I managed to pull on my clothes with numbed, awkward fingers and get out of the room before the ambulance arrived. I took with me only my grip. I would still need that. There was small chance that the police could hold Zealley. He would probably be free on bail this same afternoon. The odds were against me. I was fighting in Zealley's own back yard, wounded and entirely alone, while he must have been prepared for this contingency for years. But I had succeeded in the first part of my plan. I had found out who he was, and I had put him in a position where he could not use his superior resources, for a time at least. Now I had to get to him before he was able to mobilize those resources. * * * * * In the street, I had a violent attack of cramps in my upper diaphragm, and I got down on one knee and made a pretense of adjusting a shoe strap as I fought the torment. Perspiration gathered in clammy globules all over my body. When the pain left, I rose and pushed grimly on. Opposite Minneapolis Mining's main offices, and a quarter of a block down, I found the type of commercial building I was looking for, and went in and sought out the building superintendent. "Do you have an office for rent on one of the lower floors?" I asked him. "One that faces the front street?" "We have several," he answered with professional courtesy. He thumbed through a row of cards and pulled out one with a small brown envelope attached. "Here's a fine office on the sixth floor. It's only one room, but--" "I'll take a look at it," I interrupted him. "Of course." He tore open the small envelope and took out a brass key. "I'll take you up." "I'd rather go alone." As he hesitated, I took out my billfold and separated a hundred-dollar bill from two others of its kind and laid it on his desk. "I'll leave a deposit--in case I should like it," I said, taking the key from his hand. "I suppose it will be all right," he murmured doubtfully. "Thank you," I called back over my shoulder. "I may be a while. I want to look it over carefully." I ignored the fact that he seemed to have more he wanted to say. The office was small, but that made little difference to me. There was a clear view of the street from the window. That was all I cared about. In one corner was a small packing case, left by the former tenant. I dragged it over by the window and sat down. From my grip I took a rifle barrel and stock and assembled them, and filled the magazine with ammunition. I kept part of my attention on the building down the street while I worked. I hoped I had guessed right--that Zealley would get free of the police, and that he would return to his office. The day-shift workers had begun to pour from the Mining building before a taxi drew up to the curb and a man in a yellow hat alighted. Zealley had come. He was alone. I aligned the sights of my rifle on his head, waited until I had a clear shot, and squeezed the trigger. The yellow hat sprang upward and Zealley sank from sight among the hurrying workers. The job was done. * * * * * Finding a way back to New Nebraska took me a year, for I no longer fitted my passport picture and description at all. "Except for the danger to others," I said when I reported in, "I wouldn't have bothered coming back." "A good thing for you that you did bother to come back here," I was told. The biochemists had gone on with their work through the years I'd searched for Zealley. They had learned that the symbiotes' life cycle developed in three distinct stages: five years of propagation, fifteen years in the dormant aging process, an undetermined number of years in the final form. If the blood of a carrier was replaced any time during the first five years, the bugs in the residual blood in the body began to propagate again, delaying the aging process another five years. "In other words," I was told, "we can control the symbiote. Mankind can reap the benefits--with not a single one of the dangers." Except poor Zealley, I thought pityingly, but wonderingly. The hogs, the smart boys who have every angle figured in getting the jump on everybody else--how is it they never figure the last angle? He should have waited instead of grabbing. *** End of this Doctrine Publishing Corporation Digital Book "Metamorphosis" *** Doctrine Publishing Corporation provides digitized public domain materials.

Dirk could buy a new steel rim for $50. Have the one bent rim replaced using the existing tire & sensors. Slap on new hubcaps and be done. It would be about $75 tops. He could keep the bent rim as a spare. If he ever had a tire issue with either Mirage in the future, it could be used while a replacement is ordered. Given how rare these tire sizes are, I see some wisdom in doing this.
Can you show Dirk where he can find a set of Imola rims for $50? That would be a great deal!
A set (of 4) 175/55-15 Quatrac 5 tires are $347.92 with free shipping @ tirerack.com. I don't see this being a $400 job, unless you can point out a great deal on a set of rims for him?
He can mount 165/65-14 Vredestein Quatrac 5 on his existing rims, or he can go with countless other 175/65-14 tire options some day.

Celebrating the Anniversary of Lord Shakyamuni Buddha's fifteen days of the display of miracles.The Western year 2019 corresponds with the Tibetan year 2146, Female Earth Pig. From the first day of the Tibetan first month until the fifteenth is the great special time of Buddha showing miraculous powers in order to subdue the Six Founders and to inspire faith in his followers. Losar (Tib 1) is the most important yearly celebration in Tibetan Buddhism and the next 14 days that follow are special times for practice, culminating on Tib 15, Chotrul Duchen (the Day of Miracles). Any actions done during that period of time are multiplied in their power. Karmic results are multiplied by one hundred million, as cited by Lama Zopa Rinpoche in the Vinaya text, Treasure of Quotations and Logic. It is a very powerful time to practice and increase one's commitment to both practice and study." We usually have a strong showing by the local Tibetan community who attend wearing their traditional costumes. The altar will be set up with traditional fried pastries (kap-se), butter sculptures, and other things representing prosperity. Recitations (in Tibetan) this morning will include:
- Lama Chöpa with Tsog
- Palden Lhamo Tea Offering
- and maybe some other prayers in Tibetan

Lincoln is going to be the base of operations for a new company that is selling electric bicycles.
Steve Glenn and his son, Paul, who own Executive Travel and a number of other businesses, announced Wednesday that Lincoln will be the headquarters for their new company, Tailwind E-Bikes. The company's office will be located in the same building as Executive Travel, at 1212 O St.
"We have seen rapid growth of e-bikes around the world," Paul Glenn said in a news release. "They are big in Europe and on the east and west coasts."
Electric bikes use a motor and battery to offer a pedal-assist mode, full-electric mode or both.
According to the most recent market data available from eCycleElectric, there were about 34 million e-bikes sold worldwide in 2017, most of them in Europe and China. In some European countries, including the Netherlands and Austria, e-bike sales make up one-third or more of all bicycle sales.
You have free articles remaining.
The market in the U.S. is small, but it is growing rapidly. According to eCycleElectric data, there were about 263,000 e-bike sales in the U.S. in 2017, but that was a 25% increase over the previous year.
The Glenns are hoping to tap into that market by offering models that are affordable. While some models can cost several thousand dollars, Tailwind E-Bikes offers three models ranging in price from $1,199 to $1,599. The bikes look like regular mountain bikes and offer manual, pedal-assist and full-electric mode, with speeds up to 20 mph.
The company plans to do most of its sales online, at Tailwindebikes.com as well as on sites such as Amazon and eBay, and will offer free shipping. It also is selling the bikes at its Glenn's True Value hardware stores and hopes to expand to other retail outlets.
The bikes are manufactured near Hong Kong and shipped to Nebraska mostly assembled, Steve Glenn said. They are stored and distributed from another company the Glenns own, Headwind Consumer Products in Syracuse.
Steve Glenn said response so far has been great, both from buyers and from potential investors who he said have made unsolicited pitches to the company.
"We have been amazed how much buzz there is in this space," he said.

Strictly Come Dancing star Catherine Tyldesley has given fans their first glimpse at her latest look as the stars prepare to take to the dancefloor for the fifth live show.
The Coronation Street star, 36, looked stunning in an aqua blue gown with a dramatic feathered skirt as she prepared to take on the Tango with pro Johannes Radebe.
In the snap Catherine posed alongside fellow contestant Emma Barton, who oozed gothic glamour in a black gown ahead of her Paso Doble with Anton Du Beke.
Dancefloor-ready: Strictly Come Dancing star Catherine Tyldesley shared a first look at her latest dancefloor look as she posed with Emma Barton before the fifth live show
Catherine proudly showed off her latest ballgown which boasted a beautiful sequinned bodice and a dramatic feathered skirt.
The actress beamed as she posed alongside fellow soap star Emma, who wore a sultry black gown with a red and purple feathered front.
She captioned the post: 'My beautiful #strictly sister @theemmabarton love this lady.'
Alex Scott and Neil Jones: Charleston, 'Pump Up The Jam' by Swingrowers
Catherine Tyldesley and Johannes Radebe: Tango, 'Little Bird' by Annie Lennox
Emma Barton and Anton du Beke: Paso Doble, 'Nothing Breaks Like A Heart' by Mark Ronson and Miley Cyrus
Emma Weymouth and Aljaz Skorjanec: Viennese Waltz, 'Saving All My Love For You' by Whitney Houston
Michelle Visage and Giovanni Pernice: Rumba, 'Too Good At Goodbyes' by Sam SmitH
Saffron Barker and AJ Pritchard: Foxtrot, 'Theme from New York, New York' by Frank Sinatra
Chris Ramsey and Karen Hauer: Quickstep, 'Let's Go Crazy' by Prince
David James and Nadiya Bychkova: Jive, 'Such A Night' by Michael Buble
Karim Zeroual and Amy Dowden: Salsa, 'Who Let The Dogs Out' by Baha Men
Kelvin Fletcher and Oti Mabuse: Cha Cha, 'Get Stupid' by Aston Merrygold
Mike Bushell and Katya Jones: Samba – 'Jump On It' by The Sugarhill Gang
Will Bayley and Janette Manrara: Couples' Choice (Contemporary), '7 Years' by Lukas Graham
Sensational: Catherine will take to the floor on Saturday to dance a Tango with pro Johannes Radebe (pictured last week performing the Charleston)
Stunning: Emma will perform a Paso Doble with pro Anton Du Beke, after scoring highly with her Viennese Waltz last week (pictured)
Both Catherine and Emma will take to the floor for their next performance on Saturday night, which will also see Alfonso Ribeiro replace Bruno Tonioli as a guest judge.
Last week the duo both impressed with their performance, with Catherine's Charleston scoring 32 points out of 40, and Emma's Viennese Waltz an impressive 35.
After Karim Zeroual stormed the leaderboard last week with pro Amy Dowden, it remains to be seen who will wow the judges this week.
Embattled: Shirley Ballas is also expected to appear on the panel, after revealing on Friday that had put herself on a drip following a 'tough week'
Shirley Ballas is also expected to appear on the panel, after revealing on Friday that had put herself on a drip following a 'tough week.'
The star posted an Instagram snap showing her relaxing in an armchair with a drip connected to her left arm, as she admitted recent days had taken their toll.
In the caption Shirley wrote: 'Very happy to receive this drip today to help me get well. Full of all sorts of things vitamin c magnesium b12 and the list goes on.
'Feeling under the weather today as a result of a tough week. So @revivuk will have me up and running by Saturday.'
Shocking: This live show will be the first after viewers were outraged to see DJ Dev Griffin and pro Dianne Buswell eliminated from the show last week
The latest live show comes after last week's elimination sparked outrage and threats of a boycott by die-hard fans.
DJ Dev Griffin was booted off the show after losing the dance-off to Viscountess Emma Weymouth, despite consistently scoring high with the judges.
After their exit angry viewers took to social media to claim that they were unable to vote for Dev and Dianne as their designated 'phone line wouldn't accept calls.'
Fans have also blamed judges Craig, Motsi Mabuse, Bruno Tonioli and Shirley Ballas for their departure as they landed in the bottom two against Emma and pro Aljaž Škorjanec, with Shirley even receiving death threats as a result of their verdict.
Candid: Strictly judge Craig Revel-Horwood (pictured on Wednesday) meanwhile has slammed 'know-nothing' fans who were left disappointed by his scoring for axed Dev
On their exit, Craig told The Mirror: 'They can kick off as much as they like. How much do they know about the cha cha cha? Nothing darling.'
'Dev was the worst dancer on the night but if he had done his other routines then he may have been successful going through.'
Australian beauty Dianne recently admitted she was 'upset' on Dev's behalf, particularly because she was so 'proud' of his efforts in the ballroom, which placed him among the favourites.
Speaking to host Rylan Clark-Neal on It Takes Two earlier this week, she said: 'I was in a lot of shock. I didn't think that Dev would be in the bottom two for a while, if at all.
'I think he did an amazing job on Saturday night… I'm really proud of him but I'm really upset that he was in the bottom two and that he ended up leaving.'
Dev appeared to have already made peace with his departure from the show as he said: 'Every single week is so different, I don't think you can ever take your position from the previous week for granted…
'When I woke up that day, I didn't think I'd be in the bottom two, but I was,' adding that one of the things he's 'going to miss the most' is rehearsing new routines.

We're preparing to migrate our current two-server architecture to two new servers, and I would like to make the wisest possible decision in how we utilize these machines.
Our current setup has evolved piecemeal, without much planning for the future, and IMO has inefficient deployment of server-side resources–i.e. two systems, each running Postgres, Geoserver, and Drupal. One of them has a MySQL instance feeding its Drupal site, and the other has a Tilestache/Mapnik render stack in addition to a running, but unused Geoserver instance. Since both systems render the same underlying GIS data, all of our ETL tasks are duplicated, with the only difference between them being the geometry's coordinate system ..I know. 🙂
Some notes on the I/O demands. Both of the Drupal sites are low-pressure homepages with very little write/insert activity. I would characterize the overall demand on both databases as read-intensive. (In fact, two tables are so read-intensive I would like to cache them in RAM if it's possible.) We do have one insert API, though, that collects data on app usage patterns–for example, a session id is created when our single page app initially loads, then some subsequent interaction is logged, like layers being turned on/off, the measuring of an in-map feature, the type and location of features "clicked" by the user, etc. It makes about 15k inserts on a typical day but needs to handle up to 50k inserts/day based on some of the max counts when grouped by day. However these tables are only used in-house and are infrequently queried. Finally, I expect the tile-rendering itself is probably disk write-intensive.
For obvious reasons I don't want to duplicate our current architecture. My primary goal is to have a single spatial database using geometry types of the same coordinate system in order to simplify our ETL.
So my main question is whether it is better to have all the data served from one machine configured and tuned as a stand-alone database? And whether the tile rendering software will perform better on the same system as that database, or if the renderers should be installed to the other system, which will run the web server (Apache). Worth mentioning: Geoserver and Tilestache have to be configured to handle web requests forwarded through Apache, Geoserver being on Tomcat::8080, and Tilestache using mod_python.
If we use a distributed database architecture, my concern is that THE WIRE between the two servers will be the chokepoint, especially considering that the tile renderers will be making very frequent requests for geometry collections, which are a heavy data type. Of course I would also appreciate any other insights into the best architecture.

The following is satirical.
Empire Actor Jussie Smollett's story about being the victim of a hate crime seems to be unraveling. At first, Smollett told Chicago police that he was attacked on the street by Donald Trump, who shouted racial and anti-gay slurs in a language believed to be ancient Babylonian spoken backwards while his head rotated 360 degrees.
Mainstream news agencies immediately ran with the story, and Congressman Adam Schiff called for the appointment of a special prosecutor to imprison the president, telling CNN he had personally seen evidence that the attack was real but couldn't reveal what it was because then everyone would know he was lying.
After police began to investigate, Smollett changed his story, saying his attacker wasn't Trump but just someone who shouted "This is MAGA country," narrowing the suspect list down to people who didn't realize they were in Chicago. Smollett said the attacker hadn't used a racial slur exactly but had harshly criticized the season one finale of Empire as implausible, then demanded Smollett put the accent of his name on the first syllable like a normal person and stop trying to be such a fancypants.
Police identified two amorphous shapes of interest on a blurry security video and Smollett said he was sure they were the attackers because they looked exactly like two guys no one would ever be able to find. Then the Chicago Police, who said they had nothing else to do since most of the city's other residents were dead of gunshot wounds for some reason, actually found the shapes, who turned out to be two African dudes who say Smollett hired them to attack him.
In the aftermath, Don Lemon went on a show he apparently has and denounced President Trump for being so evil that people have to make up stories about him just to describe how evil he is.
So basically it's been a typical news day.

More details have begun to trickle out about Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's run on the new series Batman & Robin, finally confirmed yesterday by DC Comics.
In a brief interview with IGN.com, Morrison describes the title "as the next book in what will be a five-volume series beginning [with] 'Batman & Son'," the 2006 Batman story arc that introduced Damian Wayne as the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul.
Compared to "Batman & Son" and "Batman RIP," Morrison says Batman & Robin is "maybe more poppy, and more colourful, but it's also creepier."
"It's like David Lynch doing the Batman TV show," he says.
There are more details at the link, of course.
The interview was conducted by email, so there aren't any follow-up questions. That leaves at least one of Morrison's statements -- "Frank Quitely's coming back to the book to wrap up our year-long storyline ..." -- open to interpretation.
I take it to mean, somewhat disappointingly, that Quitely will draw the first and fourth arcs, with other artists handling the middle two. Given the speed at which Quitely works, that's certainly understandable -- expected, even -- but disappointing nonetheless.
Hopefully, more information will be revealed in the coming days.
Batman & Robin will debut in June.

With Congress poised to begin work on a final rewrite of a major telecommunications bill, consumer groups and long-distance carriers complained Thursday that a major cable company is stifling public debate by refusing to air a TV advertisement criticizing the legislation.
The commercial, sponsored by a coalition of long-distance companies such as AT&T; Corp., MCI Communications Corp., as well as the Media Access Project and other consumer groups, was supposed to start airing this week on Cable News Network and run for three weeks, according to MCI spokesman Robert Stewart.
But Turner Broadcasting System Inc., which owns CNN and other cable programs, said it will not air the 30-second ad showing an elderly woman shooing away a group of Washington telephone lobbyists from her doorstep.
"TBS has an interest in the telecommunications bills pending," the company said, "and CNN has been reporting on the bills."
Unlike the four major television networks, which generally do not accept so-called advocacy advertisements on controversial issues, Turner has accepted such ads in the past.
CNN spokesman Steve Haworth said that under a new policy, the all-news cable channel will not air any advocacy ads on the telecommunications bills. Haworth acknowledged that CNN ran advocacy ads in 1992 during the congressional debate over re-regulating the cable industry.
"We took so much heat for that one [1992], we decided not to run advocacy ads this time," Haworth said.
"I think it's a bad policy," said news media critic Ben H. Bagdikian, former dean of the journalism department at UC Berkeley. "While the courts have upheld broadcasters for rejecting an ad for any reason, ethically there is a very fuzzy line over what they call advocacy ads."
The coalition and other consumer groups immediately seized on the refusal to air the ad as evidence of the kind of abuse of power by media giants they believe the bill will encourage.
"This is precisely the kind of stifling of debate by media giants that the telecommunications bill would allow and it is precisely the reason this legislation must be defeated," said Gene Kimmelman, co-director of the Washington office of Consumers Union.
Telecommunications bills passed by the House and Senate last summer would free long-distance carriers, local phone companies and cable TV operators to enter each other's markets. The measures would also loosen restrictions on the number of stations a broadcaster could own and would require the television industry to equip sets with a computer chip that would enable parents to block out programs they find objectionable.
A House-Senate conference committee is expected to meet for the first time next week to reconcile the two measures before Congress takes a final vote on the legislation.

text: Label Lingo: Making Sense of Probiotic Labels Picture this. You're standing in the supplements aisle looking for just the right probiotic to meet your needs. You pick up a product that looks interesting, take a peek at the label and find yourself inundated with words and ingredients you've never seen or heard. Don't worry. We're here to help you navigate probiotic labels with confidence. Probiotics are identified by a genus, species and strain. (Hello, flashback to seventh grade science class!) Here's a peek at how that classification looks on a label. The two most common words you'll see on a probiotic label are Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria. These two things represent the genus. (Remember, probiotics are good bacteria; they're actual living organisms.) Lactobacillus, Explained Lactobacillus is the name of good bacteria that is predominantly found in your small intestine. Typically, Lactobacillus is a type of probiotic that helps maintain the healthy function of the small intestine and provides benefits of immune health and overall digestive balance.* Names like rhamnosus, acidophilus, or gasseri are usually found after and tell us the specific species of Lactobacillius. The series of numbers or letters after the species tells us the strain. The species and strain will point to the specific health benefits you can expect from that probiotic. Breaking Down Bifidobacteria Bifidobacteria, on the other hand, are good bacteria that are primarily found in the large intestine or colon. They are great at promoting regular, daily bowel habits and are especially important as we age, since most adults typically experience a natural decline of Bifidobacteria as they get older.* On a label, Bifidobacteria are also followed by a series of numbers that represent the species and strain. Remember, the species and strain will help you understand the specific health benefits you can expect from that probiotic. Working Together to Fortify from Within You'll find various combinations of both Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria in our Fortify products. For example, our Fortify 30 Billion Age 50+ Probiotic contains three strains of Bifidobacteria to support colon health and regularity in aging adults.* The product also contains two strains of Lactobacilli to provide overall digestive balance and support immunity. Our Fortify 30 Billion Daily Probiotic contains five strains of Lactobacilli to support overall digestive balance and immunity, and two strains of Bifidobacteria to help support colon health.

|The College of Preachers
The College of Preachers aim to encourage informed, productive debate, and offer practical help to those engaged in preaching around our country week in, week out.
At a time when many questions are being asked about the place of preaching at the beginning of the third millennium, The College of Preachers aims to encourage informed, productive debate, and offer practical help to those engaged in preaching around our country week in, week out.
Their ethos is summed up in five words:
Biblical - seek to be true to our foundations, without evading the hard questions which study of the Scripture poses.
Thoughtful - look to nurture a kind of preaching which depends neither on old formulae nor new gimmicks, but is faithful, living and creative.
Practical - acutely aware of the pressures faced by those in a regular preaching ministry, and of the need for help through workshops, mentoring and the hearing of listeners' responses.
Ecumenical - believe that in preaching as in other areas, our denominations have much they can learn from one another.
Radical - want to probe our traditional forms of preaching, not in order to reject the wisdom and riches of our heritage but to open up new possibilities by a return to roots.

We have some great news! The paperback edition of Chris "SparkGuy" Downie's New York Times best-selling book, The Spark: The 28-Day Breakthrough Plan for Losing Weight, Getting Fit, and Transforming Your Life is now available. (Can I get a WooHoo!?)
We're really excited to share this new and updated version of the book with you--at a new low price (under $11 at some retailers!). In addition to all of the great features found in the original, the paperback contains our Strong Start Guide, written by SparkGuy and Coach Nicole, which shares the proven strategies to lose twice the weight in two weeks--and keep it off! What you do in the first two weeks can make or break your weight-loss program, and we found out what works. (The paperback version is updated and is the only place you'll find the all-new Strong Start Guide!)
Previous SparkPeople research that found that 50 percent of people report losing their momentum within two weeks of starting a diet, and 18 percent within three days. And once the momentum is gone, the diet usually fizzles. To discover the secrets of a strong start that builds momentum, SparkPeople did a new in-depth survey of over 2,000 of its members and found that 'strong starters' lost twice as much weight in the first two weeks and were five times more likely to reach their ultimate goal than 'false starters' because they took certain actions and avoided others in the first two weeks of a weight loss plan.
The survey's most counterintuitive conclusions: focus less on weight loss and you'll lose more of it, and shorter workouts lead to greater weight loss than longer ones. You'll have to buy the book to read the entire Strong Start Guide, but you'll find the key findings below--along with details on free deals and other cool extras (like a free bonus "SparkPeople Issue" of All You magazine with 100 pages of additional healthy living tips, advice & success stories!!) you'll get when you buy the book!
The Most Noteworthy Conclusion: Focus less on your weight – and you'll lose more of it!
About the survey
Having quantified in a previous poll the crucial nature of maintaining momentum in the first two weeks of a weight-loss program, SparkPeople conducted a 45-question survey of more than 2,000 active members to compare the strategies and techniques that members did and did not employ to get off to a "strong start" or a "false start."
"Strong starters" were survey respondents who felt they had a good start, reported meeting their initial expectations, and consistently lost weight for at least eight consecutive weeks. "False starters," in contrast, did not feel good about the start of their programs and failed to meet their expectations for their first two weeks.
Weight Loss Results
When you buy "The Spark" paperback, you'll also get these extras:
FREE GIFTS For a limited time only, get a free bonus "SparkPeople Issue" of All You magazine with 100 pages of additional healthy living tips, advice & success stories from SparkPeople's members and experts! FREE with purchase.
FREE ONLINE MEMBERSHIP TO BOOK BONUS PROGRAM You'll receive free access to EXCLUSIVE Online Bonus Book Program that includes new content, recipes, workouts and downloadable tools from The Spark.
EARN 500 SPARKPOINTS If you buy now, you'll receive 500 SparkPoints when you get your book and login to the FREE Bonus Book site. Go to page 223 of The Spark to get further details.

Would it be better to buy "The Spark" paperback? Or, should I buy the newer book "The Spark Solution"? What is the difference? Are the free perks advertised for "The Spark" still available? I would like to see that All You SparkPeople edition. Report
Saving this to favorites Report
I must be an exception. The first three weeks of my diet and exercise program I didn't lose any weight at all. But -- I'd made a 3 month commitment, and I stuck it out. After 3 months, sure enough, I'd lost enough weight and learned that I could eat right and not deprive myself to want to keep going. And I did. It took me 8 months to lose about 30 pounds, but I've kept it off for nearly 6 years. Healthy habits pay off! Just believe that it will work, and keep on keeping on! Report
Oh Joy, another book to add to our collection of "diet books", along with all the fitness magazines, etc. yelling and telling us "eat less, move more". I'll pass, thanks anyway. Been losing and maintaining without the books. Report
For those of us who bought the Hardcover book when it came out, where do we find the strong start guide? Report
I am tempted to buy this book, but wonder if it would really help anymore this website already does? There is so much useful info on Spark already! Report
i already have the book - bought it last year and i love it . . . however, time and circumstances (excuses, excuses) have set me back and i'm beginning to read my hardcover copy again . . . the only thing is: i would really like to know what's in that "strong start" section . . . will we, who have already purchased the book, be able to read this section online somewhere? i'm gonna go check the bonus book thingy now . . . Report
I just ordered The Spark today! Didnt pay attention to if it was hardbook or paperback, but it was only $10 so I am thinking paperback :o) Report
I have bought the hard cover. First, I got it from the library and read it. I enjoyed it so much and wanted my own copy so I purchased one online from Walmart for 14.50 and no shipping, I had to pick it up at the store. It is a great book with lots of inspiring stuff Report
is it different from the other book ? or is it the same only in smaller version . Report
I already have The Spark in Hardcover and Audio, cant afford to get anymore Report
I just downloaded this book from Amazon's Kindle for MAC! How cool is that! Report
This is interesting to me. It makes sense why my attempts at weight loss have failed in the past. Taking on too much at once and then wondering why I can't stay with it for more than a week or two. This time I am starting with 10-15 minute routines during my lunch break at work. Report
it sounds like a good book to read i would love to get it I am having financial problems right now Report
I already have the hardback, how can I get the strong start guide??? I need help as I have read the book twice and still have not been able to get it. Report
What appeals to me? Knowing that strong starters didn't change everything at once. I'm adding things a bit at a time as I learn new things and enjoying it. Report
Should be getting it today. Pre-ordered from bn.com at the beginning of November. How exciting!! Report
Great reading, I will be buying some of these for gifts at Christmas, for those wanting to have a healthier lifestyle! Affordable too! Report
Makes a great christmas gift for those family members and friends that want to become healthier! Report
Spend less time exercising. Time and again I have sabatoged myself by thinking I can race off to a Biggest Loser level of exercise commitment and then throw in the towel because I can't measure up to my success yardstick. The original Spark book was very clear about the benefit of committing to a 10-minute/day exercise routine, and I am glad to see that will continue to be emphasied. I'm just wrapping my head (and feet) around that one now, and I know it will be key to my long-term success. Report
I'm curious about the "exercise less." I have a daily walking habit of 40 minutes in the morning, and 40 minutes in the evening, and then usually a hike or bike ride on the weekends. Should I cut this way back during the first 2 weeks? What should I do with my time? Sit on the couch and watch TV? Report
Got mine in the post this week. Finished Chapter 1 and on Chapter 2....
Loving it so far!! Report

Part Number: BOOSTXL-DRV8305EVM
I want to get a motor driver from TI. Is there any less expensive high voltage motor drivers other than TMDSHVMTRPFCKIT? I saw that there are boostxl-drv8301 or boostxl-DRV8305 but these are for low voltages, I need a driver with higher input voltage range (less than 150 V).
The maximum VIN we support in the Brushless Motor Drive group is currently 100V.
We are glad that we were able to resolve this issue, and will now proceed to close this thread.

In reply to Adam Sidelsky:
Thank you for the response.
Could you please tell me which one of your drivers supports 100V?
In reply to Ata Khiabani:
Please check the DRV8353 EVM or the DRV8350 EVM. Both of these drivers accept up to 100V. Please note that this 100V must include any headroom for things like back EMF or voltage spikes caused by heavy de-acceleration or braking of the motor. For these mechanisms we recommend 20% headroom so the VIN applied should be ~80V unless you can guarantee the VIN won't exceed 100V.

In a fact sheet released Friday, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation downgraded the land at Clinton West Plaza to a Class 4 site, meaning it "no longer poses a significant threat to public health and/or the environment."
Before the reclassification, the plaza site, listed as 609-625 West Clinton Street was listed as Class 2, having been investigated in 2005 and found to contain chemicals from a laundromat that had previously occupied part of the site. The investigation found vinyl chloride, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene and dichloroethene.
A remediation plan was introduced and improved in mid-2016. It contained the following measures, which according to the state have rehabilitated the site to the point of relative safety.
"Remedial activities completed at the site included in-situ chemical oxidation treatment of groundwater in the southwestern portion of the site," the report states. "This involved injection of a carbon source to further degrade contamination; and the construction of a cover system comprised of building slabs, concrete, pavement, and 2 feet of clean soil. In addition, sub-slab depressurization systems were installed in one on-site building and one off-site building to mitigate the potential for exposures as a result of soil vapor intrusion."
Groundwater at the site is still unusable for the public, and the site's uses are still restricted by DEC-mandated regulations.
Other air quality maintenance practices have made the air around the site safe as well, helped by subterranean filtration systems.
"A sub-slab depressurization system (system that ventilates/removes the air beneath the building) has been installed in the on-site building and one off-site building to prevent the indoor air quality from being affected by the contamination in the soil vapor beneath the building," the report states. "Sampling indicates that soil vapor intrusion is not a concern for other off-site buildings."

Dedicated Candidate
To the Editor:
We endorse our good friend John Imperiale's candidacy for Harvey Cedars commissioner.
We know John has an impressive resume as a former senior vice president at J.P. Morgan Chase and a past candidate for the New York State Legislature. Although we didn't know him during his working career, we have come to know him over the last 10 years as our neighbor and friend.
John is a person who loves Harvey Cedars and is dedicated to whatever he cares about. We have worked with him on the board of the Harvey Cedars Taxpayers Association and followed his work on the Harvey Cedars Open Space Committee and his fundraising efforts at the LBI Foundation of the Arts and Sciences in Loveladies.
As a friend, you see the side of a person you don't always see as a fellow worker, so we see the passion John puts into everything he does, be it playing golf or pickleball or working on a board, borough committee or foundation.
