text: Flogging Molly's "Float" was their best work to date and will go down as the best album they'll ever make. I don't think it can be topped for them. It was the perfect record for this particular band. The new album, "Speed of Darkness" is more in line with everything the band had released up to "Float." It might not be as good as the band's last album but it's still pretty good. There's a ton of variety here. No song on this album sounds like another song and everything is placed very well as far as a track list goes. To me, Flogging Molly has always been at it's best when the band is in all-out punk-irish mode. The foot-stomping/aggressive songs have always been the tracks that I come back to more than previous ones- songs like "Don't Shut 'Em Down", "The Power's Out" and the title track are my favorites o this one and they'll be the songs that I come back to off of this album. Flogging Molly's "Speed of Darkness" doesn't come off as it's best work to date, but it comes across as another good release. That's really all you could want.

The White House is unveiling a new report aimed at supporting more community-based broadband. As Amy Schatz reports for Re/code, "in reality, the White House isn't offering much new" beyond reiterating what the FCC has been saying about the topic. Still, with President Obama going to Cedar Rapids today to highlight the issue and the White House planning a June summit on local broadband access, the issue has never gotten more attention in Washington.
Sophisticated software aimed at reading the emotion behind human facial expression was good enough to predict someone's voting preference with 73% accuracy, based on watching their reactions to clips of the Obama-Romney debates, Raffa Khatchadourian reports for The New Yorker in the course of a long piece on the emerging industry of facial recognition.
Blockchainiacs, arise! Scott Rosenberg has long been one of the few journalists who writes about code and the Internet with complete technical fluency while making his work understandable to non-techies. That's why his long and detailed discussion on Medium's Backchannel of the potential of the blockchain, the technical innovation underlying BitCoin, to revolutionize not just commerce but all human interaction, and fix some underlying design problems that plague the web, is worth your attention.
Rosenberg tops off his piece with a brilliant counterpoint quote from writer-developer Maciej Ceglowski, who challenges the romanticism powering the blockchainiacs, saying:
There is a tendency in computer-land to seek technical solutions to political problems. In my opinion, the focus on the blockchain (and related ideas) falls into that misguided category. The idea that we should look to algorithms and technology to reclaim our freedoms is fundamentally undemocratic. It presupposes a technical elite who would 'fix the Internet' for everyone else. While I can see how this appeals to romantic ideas of hacking the system, I see it as a dangerous trend at worst, and a distraction at best.

in ancient Greece, originally a clan tribal association; subsequently a territorial division.
The ancient kinship phylae were the center of Greek political, military, and religious life during the clan period. Each phyle was divided into phratryes. Power in the phyle was shared by the following: an elected phylarch, who had religious, judicial, and military authority; a popular assembly; and a council of elders.
As slaveholding states evolved, territory replaced kinship as the basis of the phyle. In Attica, Cleisthenes introduced a reform in 510 and 509 B.C. that substituted ten territorial phylae for four kinship phylae. Each of the ten territorial phylae consisted of three parts, with one part, or trittys, from each of the three regions of Attica: the mountain, the coastal, and the interior. Attic democracy was based on the territorial phylae.

Along with Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster and the Wolfman, the mummy is one of the great figures of the classic horror-movie genre. And it's easy to see why: In a sense, mummies are real-life, tangible ghosts. They are bodies that stick around long after death.
The most familiar mummies, of course, are the carefully wrapped bodies of ancient Egypt. These figures are only one subsection of the world's mummy population, however. In the past 200 years, scientists, adventurers and capitalists have discovered ancient mummies in diverse locales all around the world.
In this article, we'll meet some of these mummies to see how and why they were so carefully preserved. We'll also look at some natural mummies and examine how the world's mummies help us understand human history.
What is a mummy?
A mummy is simply a human being whose soft tissue has been preserved long after death. Ordinarily, when a person dies, the decomposition process reduces the body to a bare skeleton in a matter of months. The rate of decomposition is dependent on a number of factors, chiefly the nature of the surrounding environment.
In most environments, the first stages of decomposition begin within a few hours. In this initial stage, called autolysis, organs that contain digestive enzymes (the intestines, for example) begin to digest themselves.
Autolysis is followed by putrefaction, the breakdown of organic matter by bacteria. In normal, temperate circumstances, putrefaction gets going about three days after death. Within a few months, the body is reduced to a skeleton. In hotter, more humid environments, this process is accelerated, because bacteria reproduce rapidly in such conditions. In colder, drier conditions, the process is slowed, because bacteria need heat and water to thrive (this is why we use refrigerators to preserve food). If the conditions are cold or dry enough, or if there isn't enough oxygen, the environment is so harsh that few bacteria can survive. In this case, the body will not fully decompose, possibly for thousands of years.
There are many circumstances that can lead to such a mummy. In nature, bodies have been preserved in the frozen ice of glaciers, the oxygen-depleted depths of peat bogs and the arid ground of the desert. The "Iceman" discovered in 1991 by tourists in the Italian Alps is one of the most amazing natural mummies. The 5,300-year-old corpse, found with perfectly preserved tools, died in a rocky hollow that quickly filled up with snow. Essentially, this created a natural freezer that preserved the body's tissues. This mummy has provided historians with a great deal of information about Europe's Copper Age, including representative technology, human health and tattooing practices.
In some cases, natural mummies have significantly altered our conception of history. Mummies found in China's Taklimakan Desert have provided several clues to the lineage of modern natives of this region. The structure of the mummies' faces shows they were of Indo-European descent. One man, who lived around 1000 B.C., has a distinctive sunray tattoo on his temple, similar to an ancient symbol for an Indo-Iranian god. This, along with other evidence preserved with the mummies, indicates that the region was settled by Indo-European traders, centuries before the Han Chinese arrived in the area. These mummies were created by the hot sand surrounding them in their graves. When bodies are buried in hot sand, without any protective structure, the sand can absorb the body's fluids, completely desiccating it. This natural mummification process also occurred in the oldest Egyptian graves. When a body was buried in the Egyptian desert, the internal organs were preserved and the skin was crisped to a dark, hard shell. This phenomenon had a profound effect on the ancient Egyptians: The idea that the human body could survive long past death indicated to them that the human spirit could too. In the next section, we'll see how these early natural mummies led to the Egyptians' infamous artificial mummification process.
Egyptian Mummification
In the course of its 3,000-year run, Egyptian embalming (artificial mummification) passed through many stages. As we learned in the last section, the practice began with the natural preservation qualities of the arid desert ground. For many generations, the Egyptians buried their dead this way -- in the hot sand, with a few belongings but no casket or housing. As their concept of the afterlife evolved, the Egyptians became concerned about the comfort of their departed family members. They began covering the bodies with long wicker baskets and later with sturdy wooden boxes. Eventually, this led to fully enclosed coffins and tomblike housings.
Of course, with the body fully enclosed, it was not exposed to the drying properties of the sand. The fluids remained in the body; the bacteria thrived, and the flesh naturally decomposed. This left the Egyptians with a real quandary -- they didn't want to leave their loved ones completely covered in sand, but they also didn't want the bodies reduced to skeletons. To ensure survival and comfort in the afterlife, the Egyptian scientists had to figure out a way to replicate the preservative qualities of the desert.
In the early days of mummification, the embalmers concentrated mostly on keeping the body away from the elements. They wrapped it up tightly in strips of linen soaked with resin. With careful application of these bandages, the embalmers were able to create shapely forms, giving bodies the filled-out appearance of the living. These wrapped corpses were impressive to be sure, but in most cases the bandages did little to stop decomposition. Bacteria survived inside, and the body was eventually reduced to a skeleton.
Through experimentation, the Egyptians discovered that decomposition worked largely from the inside out. Bacteria collected first in the body's internal organs and moved on from there. To stop the putrefaction process, the embalmers realized, they would have to remove the internal organs. This, combined with the discovery of the natural drying agent natron, led to the famous Egyptian mummies we know today.
The science and theology of embalming continued to evolve over the years, so there is no single Egyptian ritual. But the standard practices of the New Kingdom's 18th through 20th dynasties (1570 to 1075 B.C.), an era that produced some of the best preserved mummies, are fairly representative.
Egyptologists have determined that the mummification rituals were performed in the Red Land, a desert region removed from heavily populated areas, with easy access to the Nile River. Reason suggests that the embalmers may have worked in open tents, rather than solid structures, in order to allow proper ventilation.
Before beginning the embalming process, the Egyptians took the body to the Ibu, the "Place of Purification." In this house, they washed the body in water gathered from the Nile. This represented a sort of rebirth, as the person passed from one world into the next. Once the body was cleaned, the embalmers carried it to the Per-Nefer, the "House of Mummification," where they began the embalming process.
Egyptian Mummification: Embalming
At the Per-Nefer, they laid the body out on a wooden table and prepared to remove the brain. To get into the cranium, the embalmers had to hammer a chisel through the bone of the nose. Then they inserted a long, iron hook into the skull and slowly pulled out the brain matter. Once they had removed most of the brain with the hook, they used a long spoon to scoop out any remaining bits. Finally, they rinsed the skull with water. Surprisingly, the brain was one of the few organs the Egyptians did not try to preserve. They weren't sure what it was for, but they assumed you wouldn't need it in the next world.
After they had removed the brain, the embalmers took a special blade made from obsidian (a sacred stone) and made a small incision along the left side of the body. They carefully removed the abdominal organs through this slit, setting each one aside (with the exception of the kidneys, which the Egyptians did not hold as important). After removing these organs, the embalmers cut open the diaphragm to remove the lungs. The Egyptians believed that the heart was the core of a person, the seat of emotion and the mind, so they almost always left it in the body. The other organs were washed, coated with resin, wrapped in linen strips and stored in decorative pottery. These vessels, which Egyptologists dubbed canopic jars, protected the organs for passage to the next world.
Once they removed the organs, the embalmers rinsed the empty chest cavity with palm wine, in order to purify it. Then, to maintain the body's lifelike form, they filled the cavity with incense and other material. This kept the skin from shrinking down inside the cavity when the body was dried out. In the next section, we'll look at this drying procedure and see how the body was finally prepared for the next world.
Egyptian Mummification: Drying and Wrapping
After the embalmers removed the organs and re-stuffed the body, they laid the body down on a sloped board and covered it completely with natron powder. The Egyptians collected this powder, a mixture of sodium compounds, from the shores of Egyptian lakes in the desert west of the Nile Delta. Unlike the hot sand that dried the earliest Egyptian mummies, the salty natron absorbed moisture without severely darkening and hardening the skin.
The embalmers left the body in the powder for 35 to 40 days to allow enough time for the body to dry completely. During this waiting period, somebody had to stand guard, as the body's strong odor attracted desert scavengers. After the 40 days were finished, the body was brought to the Wabet, the "House of Purification." The embalmers removed the incense and other stuffing from the body cavity and refilled it with natron, resin-soaked linen and various other materials. In some eras, to make the desiccated body more lifelike, the embalmers also stuffed material under the skin in the arms, legs and head. When the body was fully stuffed, the embalmers sewed up the incisions and covered the skin with a resin layer in order to keep moisture out. The body was then ready for the wrapping, or bandaging, procedure.
Bandaging was a very involved process, and it typically took a week or two to complete. While the deceased was drying in the desert, his or her family gathered roughly 4,000 square feet (372 sq. meters) of linen and brought it in to the embalmers. The wealthy sometimes used material that had clothed sacred statues, while the lower classes collected old clothing and other household linen. When the linen was delivered, the embalmers selected the highest-quality material and stripped it into long "bandages" measuring 3 to 8 inches across.
The embalmers then wrapped the body in a shroud and began methodically winding the bandages around the different parts of the body. Typically, they started with the hands and feet, wrapping all of the fingers and toes individually, and then moved on to the head, arms, legs and torso. Once all the parts of the body were wrapped, the embalmers began wrapping the body as a whole. As they applied new layers, the embalmers coated the linen with hot resin material to glue the bandages in place. During this entire process, the embalmers uttered spells and laid protective amulets on the body (for protection in the next world), wrapping them up at different layers.
The Egyptians may have bandaged their mummies for a number of different reasons:
- First, the bandages kept moisture away from the body so it would not decompose.
- Second, the wrappings let the embalmers build up the shape of the mummy, to give it a more lifelike form.
- Third, the wrappings kept everything together. Without this binding system, the fragile, desiccated mummies would likely burst or fall apart. In order for the bandages to contain the mummy effectively, they had to be wound tightly and meticulously.
After the mummy was fully wrapped, the embalmers attached a rigid cartonnage cage to the body and affixed a funerary mask to the head. This new face, which was either a likeness of the deceased or a representation of an Egyptian god, played an important role in the passage to the afterlife. It helped the spirit of the deceased find the correct body among the many Egyptian tombs.
When the mummy was completed, it was housed in a suhet, a coffin decorated to look like a person. The suhet was brought to the tomb in a procession of mourners. At the tomb, the priest, dressed as the jackal god Anubis, performed the "ceremony of the mouth," a ritual in which sacred objects were touched to the suhet's face, giving the deceased the powers of speech, sight, touch, hearing and taste in the next world. The suhet was then leaned against the wall inside the tomb, where it was sealed up with all the food, furniture and supplies that the deceased would need in the next world.
Other Ancient Mummies
The ancient Egyptians are the most famous mummy-makers, but they were not the only ancient civilization, or even the first, to preserve their dead. The Chinchorro people of northern Chile developed a mummification process around 5000 B.C., some 2,000 years before the Egyptians. These mummies, the oldest in the world, are nothing like the famous Egyptian figures. The Chinchorros dismembered and disemboweled the body completely, then attached the pieces back together using straw, plant fibers and stick. They then covered this frame with black mud, which they sculpted into a human form with a face and other ornamentation.
The resulting mummies are a strange hybrid of a corpse and a statue. It's unclear what the motivation behind this practice was, but many researchers believe it did not have to do with any concept of an afterlife. The mummies show signs of wear, and even repainting, indicating they were kept in households as statues for some time before being buried. This practice indicates that the mummies were created more for the sake of the deceased's family and friends, rather than for the good of the deceased. The Chinchorro people probably kept the mummies around as a way to honor and remember the dead, to help them mourn the loss.
Some later South American cultures also produced mummies, both by artificial and natural means. In the mountains of Peru, scientists have uncovered many Incan bodies preserved by the dry atmosphere and extremely cold temperatures. Even though the mummifying agent is completely natural, these mummies are, in a sense, man-made -- they were deliberately brought to the remote location with the understanding that the bodies would be preserved there. The Incans sacrificed children and took the bodies to these high points as an offering to their gods.
Some of the most amazing mummies have been found in China. Lady Cheng, a Chinese aristocrat who lived over 2,000 years ago, is the best-preserved ancient mummy in the world. She was laid to rest immersed in a special embalming fluid that kept her tissue relatively soft. Her body and some of her possessions were protected by a series of nested coffins housed in an airtight tomb. Chinese scientists have not studied her in detail, so they still don't know exactly how she was preserved. The embalming fluids seem to have a mercury component to them, which may have been one of the keys to her preservation.
When we think of mummies, we typically imagine bodies preserved from ancient times. But as we'll see in the next section, the practice of mummification continues today. Some of the most amazing mummies have been produced in the past hundred years.
Modern Mummies
In the 19th and 20th centuries, there was a surge of interest in the mummies of ancient Egypt. "Unravelings" were a popular form of entertainment, and people from all classes were fascinated by the beliefs and practices of the Egyptian age. One effect of this phenomenon was that some people began revisiting the idea of mummification -- with the addition of some new technology.
The most famous modern mummies are Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, the Russian revolutionist, and Eva Peron, the revered wife of Argentinean president Juan Peron. Lenin died in 1924, soon after the discovery of King Tutankhamen's tomb, which influenced the decision to preserve Lenin's body and display it at the Kremlin. The exact chemicals and procedure that keep his body perfectly preserved are a Russian secret, but we do know that the mummification is an ongoing process. The Russians periodically immerse him in a preservative bath and then dress him in a waterproof suit to hold the fluids inside.
Like Lenin, Eva Peron's body was so perfectly preserved that she appears to be alive. This was accomplished with a revolutionary embalming treatment that essentially replaced all the fluid in her body with wax. Peron and similar mummies are really a lot like the wax dummies you see in a wax museum, except, of course, that they are the actual remains of a person.
In the 1970s, a group of scientists expanded on this idea to create a process called plastination. In the complicated plastination process, all of the water and lipids in the body's cells are replaced with polymers. The body takes on the properties of plastic: It is durable, flexible, doesn't have a strong odor and, most importantly, doesn't decompose. Plastination is used to preserve body parts for anatomical research and education, but it is also used artistically. In a controversial exhibit that traveled through Europe and Asia, stripped-down, plastinated human bodies were sculpted into wild shapes and positioned in active poses. The exhibit showed all of the inner workings of the human body, in both healthy and diseased bodies.
Dr. Bob Brier, a renowned Egyptologist, used a very different approach with his modern mummy. Instead of advancing the mummification process with new technology, Dr. Brier endeavored to replicate the Egyptian technique exactly. In 1994, he pulled off this feat at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, with fascinating results. Among other things, his experiment demonstrated that it was the Egyptian mummification process itself, not the thousands of years sealed up in a coffin, that gave Egyptian mummies their distinctive withered appearance.
In the future, mummification technology will surely continue to evolve. It's a good bet that a lot of this development will be in technologies designed to preserve dead bodies so they may someday be brought back to life (cryogenics, for example). Like the ancient Egyptians, many people today are shelling out a fortune for these services, in the hopes that science may someday be able to reverse whatever killed them. Remarkably, in the thousands of years since the time of the Egyptians, people are still drawn to mummification as a means of insuring immortality.

Having some free time, I managed to apply some minor fixed to the TraceHook – I also decided to publish it, by the way. If there will be any bug reports / improvement suggestions, I will be more motivated to return to its development ;)
TraceHook is a tiny application keeping track over processes and dumping them when necessary. It's main objective is to handle various types of malware samples, launched inside a virtual environment (pure malware analysis purposes). Once you choose the executable to run, TraceHook creates the process and adds its PID to the "Controlled Processes' List". Every single child-process created by one of these already present in our list, is also being controlled. After all the manual steps are performed (triggering the malware's core functionality) on the virtual machine, the application dumps the memory context of all the processes inside our controlled list, to separate files inside the hardcoded C:\dump path.
The engine itself is a kernel module (device driver), having a callback routine registered using the documented PspCreateProcessNotifyRoutine API. It works in the context of all processes, thus doesn't need to inject any additional user-mode code anywhere.

Blackberries, Razors, and Droids, OMG! We spend so much time with them, but do we know anything about how cell phones work? How do our voices travel through the air? Why do our cell phone bills work the way they do? Who owns the air?
What the Cell? is a collaboration of CUP, teaching artist Helki Frantzen, and high school students from Crown Heights, Brooklyn. To unscramble the signals, the crew interviewed engineers, utility lawyers, consumer advocates, and electrophysicists; they inspected a Verizon high-security switching station and scoped out cell phone testing labs at Consumers Union. Together with CUP, they created this 30-minute documentary about the switches, wires, airwaves, and policies that affect your cell phone service. Join the crew as they trace how regulation and business models shape what you can and can't do with your cell phone, and get to know your airwaves a little better.
The debut screening was followed by a panel discussion moderated by student Brianna Tyler with electrical engineer Howard Huang and Howard Feld from Public Knowledge.

This post begins the 100 days~100 paintings for 2015
Hard to believe this will be the 7th year doing 100 pieces in 100 days to get ready for fall shows. I have already been accepted into the National Shrimp Festival in October. This year at my request, I am in the Arts & Crafts area. Hopefully on the Street with friends George Kearney and JuJu Bee's. I have also applied for several shows I regularly appear in on the coast. We also have one new show in Florida for which I am awaiting the jury process. This show will be in late October.
This year promises to be a real adventure, with lots on my plate even now. Teaching for the Eastern Shore Art Center, Daphne Art Center, Mobile Museum of Art, and a week at Celebration Church. God has indeed been kind to me, filling my calendar with classes for lots of little ones, as well as adult classes in the fall already lining up! Whew!
On to this, the first of the 100 Days~100 paintings for 2015.
"Breakaway" has been a while in the making, as the background for this piece was leftover paint I was not able to just throw away. It has called the studio home for over a year now, being moved from spot to spot while I ruminated about what to paint on it. The painting presented itself while I was going through photos on my computer and saw this little boy. The afternoon sun was setting and his mother decided to take him to the beach for a walk. He decided otherwise, opting for a run to the waters edge to play. His mother gently pulled him back, telling him he was not dressed for the water and it was too cool to get wet. He walked by his mom for a bit, then the breakaway! In typical toddler fashion, he giggled and starting kicking water everywhere. His mom did not want to get wet, and he took advantage of her hesitancy in catching him. He started running as fast as his little legs could carry him, splashing and laughter filling the air. Finally his mother gave up and started taking photos of his fun instead of "Takeaway" the experience of "Breakaway"
This painting is headed for "The Art of Making Miracles-To Romania with Love", a fundraiser for Romanian children in September at the Venue in Fairhope, Alabama. This is an Artist Invitation only event for artists to showcase their works. I am honored to be asked to participate. I can set a reserve price, and if it does not sell, I can take it home that evening. The advantage of this show is that I get to take home 50% of the selling price. This is a Win/Win benefit show and I am looking forward to participating!
"Breakaway" Day number 1 of the 100 Days~100 Paintings for 2015
Acrylic on canvas, 16 x 40.

The basics of enjoying wine, part I
This is the first of a three-part question and answer series about wine basics. The second part will run June 6 and the third part on June 13.
It's summer. It's warm. You want a glass of wine. But you don't know a chardonnay from a cabernet. What's an aspiring wine drinker to do?
Have no fear. The Wine Curmudgeon is here. In fact, The first question people always ask me about wine is how to get started drinking it. For some reason, Americans are convinced that wine is not something to drink with dinner, but a secret holy society that requires rituals and initiations to understand.
This is silly, and I ?m proof of that. Today, I ?m a wine writer and educator who travels throughout the wine world. But 20 years ago, I was a sportswriter who drank Miller Lite and thought wine was something that only snooty people did. If I can learn about wine, anyone can. My biggest regret is that I didn ?t start sooner. I missed drinking a lot of good wine.
Hence this Q and A, which is enough to get almost anyone ready to look at their glass, take a sip, and sigh.
I hear people talk about certain grapes all the time, like chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon. What exactly are they?
Chardonnay and cabernet are varieties of grapes, part of the species Vitis vinifera (which concludes today ?s Latin lesson). Most wine grapes grown in California, France, Italy, and other wine regions are vinifera, which generally makes the best wine. Wine in the U.S. is also made from native American grapes like the concord and the catawba, and hybrids, which are crosses between native and vinifera grapes.
Is wine from France better than wine from California? How do I know where to buy it from?
Good wine is good wine, no matter where it comes from. Some Missouri wine can make a French or California bottle taste like it was made in a bathtub. Real estate matters for price and style of the wine. A great wine is a combination of the skill of the wine maker and the quality of the grapes.
That sounds pretty esoteric ? the skill of the wine maker and quality of the grapes. What does it mean when I need to take a bottle to my boss ? house for dinner?
That ?s where the price/value ratio comes in. Today, wine fits into four price/value ranges ? $15 or less, $15 to $20, $20 to $30, and really expensive. There are wonderful wines in the first group, some really terrific wines in the second group, a lot of overpriced wines in the third group, and very little wine in the fourth group that most people would drink if they had to pay for it. After all, is a $100 wine four times better than a $25 wine?
It ?s also where real estate matters. Wine from regions with less expensive land ? the south of France and Alsace, Australia, South America or Spain ? is usually a better value.
On June 6, wine flavors and wine pairings.

Petit (AKA Petite in Whisker Haven) is the good pony that belongs to Belle, who found her at a frozen lake one winter's day while out for a stroll. Usually she can be found prancing around the castle.
A bronze pony with white muzzle and hooves. Her light olive eyes are accented with thin lashes, while her inner-ear's pink. Her gold paw mark's on her shoulder. She has a medium-length, slightly wavy mane of frosted pink with her bangs brushed past her ears. Her thin, wavy tail's held with a glittering gold bow.
She wears a gold harness, earrings, and necklace adorned with a hot pink flower ornament. She has a small pink cape bunched on each side with a button on her back.
An adventurous horse with a strong-will to match. She is full of energy but she lacks an easy-going temperament and can have a little attitude now and then. She respects no one other then Belle; to the point that her favorite thing is to make sure she looks nice for Belle and she will only allow herself to be ridden by her.

It's the most important cancer conversation you can have.
Why we're here
Our Mission
15-40 Connection teaches people how to detect cancer early to save lives.
A New Way to Think and Talk About Cancer
15-40 Connection is different from other cancer organizations and shares two new ways to think and talk about cancer:
15-40 Connection is focused on educating and empowering people about early cancer detection.
This education helps individuals become aware of the early warning signs of cancer. Most cancer organizations focus on research for a cure, treatment or support.
There are also many cancer organizations that focus on prevention. Unfortunately, we still don't know what causes all cancers, so while some preventative measures can reduce risk; it can't remove the risk completely. Research shows that detecting cancer early improves effectiveness of cancer treatment and also improves the chance of survival, which is why 15-40 Connection is empowering individuals to be aware of the early warning signs to give them their best chance at effective treatment and survival.
15-40 Connection aims to educate and empower individuals with the skills to recognize subtle health changes in themselves, rather than rely only on medical professionals.
Through 15-40 Connection's 3 Steps Detect, individuals learn how to become active participants in their own health care so cancer as well as other illnesses can be diagnosed earlier. The result is a quicker return to health and most importantly lives saved.
15-40 Connection wants to empower everyone with the ability to detect cancer early when it is most treatable and curable. Your best chance is you!

Why did SWAT clear the Tropicana on the night of the mass shooting?
LAS VEGAS (INTELLIHUB) — A Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team was captured on video late Sunday night clearing the Tropicana casino floor just moments after the Route 91 music festival massacre.
It appeared to be a six-man team accompanied by three other individuals, two of which were dressed in plain clothes.
The two dressed in plain clothes branched away from the element at one point in the video.
Civilians on the casino floor were told to hold their hands high in the air as the well-armed team passed.

Well like any film buff worth their weight in geldings I am of course a huge fan of the original, best, and eternal Kubrick Spartacus, starring Laurence Olivier, Tony Curtis, Jean Simmons, and an extremely emo Kirk Douglas.
And, like any tired lonely schoolteacher whose husband is in Paris, I am of course a huge fan of randomly putting on Starz shows I've never heard of when I'm home trying to unwind myself enough to fall asleep of an evening. So this explains how I find myself deeply entrenched in the visual and aural quagmire of "SPARTACUS: BLOOD AND SAND." Specifically, I have watched six episodes.
The eponymous fighting fellow is played by this guy Andy Whitfield, which, who is this guy? If I'm honest I will tell you 87% of why I keep watching this show is just the mug on this guy.
I don't get how you even have a face like that. What is that, it's like square yet round, macho yet tender, gentle yet unyielding, funny yet sad, plus a little bit of Asian or something. It is truly an amazing face–pictures can't capture it, it must be seen in all its delightful range of motion to be comprehended. I know you think I am being snide but I am being 100% sincere. It's weird because even though he mostly just stands around looking like that, or alternately the other half of the time he's screaming and getting blood pushed violently out of his face in slow motion, he somehow manages to be expressive and compelling using his face parts. He also does a lot of this:
(During these parts he's doing what his dead wife told him to do before she got naked-captured by those damn dirty Romans, which is to close his eyes and do what the gods tell him to do. Apparently the gods want him to kill an incredible shit-ton of human beings for no reason)
The story is told with lots of really over the top strange CGI effects, like not just the fact that fully half of each episode is just heavy metal music and intensely slow-mo jets of blood and flayed-open faces/internal organs, but also weird sequences where, like, cartoon leaves fall gently down around a person as they stand against a CGI sunset on a soundstage barefoot in the snow picking fake persimmons off a weird fake tree. At times it really looks like Twilight of the Ice Nymphs or something, like what the heck is going on in these crazy ancient times? I approve of this technique in my BLOOD AND SAND. If I'm going to see BLOOD AND SAND, then I want to see it in hypercolor and in slow-mo, and preferably more often than not it turns out somebody was just dreaming the whole time (actual thing I wrote in my notebook: "all anybody does on this show is have sex. Surely if you'd just been raped 100 times you wouldn't immediately start—oh wait he was dreaming: her head just exploded).
I have given it serious thought and I really do think it is the most violent thing I have ever seen on film. The amount of slow-mo gore and screaming and intense viscera-ripping sound effects and dudes getting crucified with their eyes gouged out and various body parts lopped off is pretty non pareil. It almost becomes soothing. There are also more boobs per capita than anything I've ever seen, including porn. So, take that as a recommendation or a warning, as you see fit.
The plot is what you'd expect, and involves something something Romans something something Thrace something something betrayal sold into slavery wife-naked-capture-rape-terror. Spartacus (not his real name–he is nameless and the show reminds us a lot that it has been arty enough to withhold his name from us ("THAT IS NOT MY NAME" etc. "YOU HAVE NO NAME SLAVE")) abandons his oath to help the Romans win their war against some sort of devil people, so in repayment some shitty Roman steals his wife and condemns him to die in the arena, like, buddy, you just made a SERIOUS ENEMY, did I mention the mug on this guy? Don't fuck with a mug like that. But then instead of dying as expected, Spartacus kills the gladiators who were going to execute him, and the crowd loves it! So he gets to live, and this guy who runs a faltering gladiator school buys him and starts training him to become a gladiator. Many training montages ensue, just like Karate Kid but with more forcing people to lie face down in sand you just peed on.
Spartacus then spends five episodes scheming to get his new master (played by the AWESOME John Hannah, why doesn't this guy win every award on the earth? Remember him delivering that Auden poem in "Four Weddings and a Funeral?" Come on!) to buy his wife back from the vindictive rape nightmare thrust upon her by that Roman guy. Then the wife turns up but all bloody and dead, and his reason for living is extinguished, so then he's like "well fuck it I guess I'll be a gladiator after all. And you know what, I'm gonna be THE BEST GLADIATOR I CAN BE." He's basically like "well, life goes on."
I really wanted someone to give him props just for managing to even locate his wife in the first place. Nobody even had last names back then, and anyway, he did it all from this emo basement prison filled with naked men. So she arrived dead–it's still pretty amazing he got her there at all. Nobody pointed this out! Nobody gave him a slap on the back and said "I kind of can't believe your scheme was even this successful."
It's going to be annoying when he immediately gets a new love interest, but I guess that's show biz. Also raise your hand if you think he will end the series crucified like Kirk Douglas did. Also I forgot to tell you there is a part (post wife-death) where he holds up a sword and screams "I….AM…..SPARTACUS" and I completely died laughing. THAT'S NOT HOW THAT LINE'S SUPPOSED TO WORK!
So yeah, slow-mo fountains of blood. There's awhile where he somehow shames himself and then has to go fight in "the Pit," where it's basically Fight Club except you die at the end, and some of your opponents are, like, wearing the cut-off faces of the people they killed just before you, held onto their actual face by a fairly complex-looking series of hooks and chains. It is only here that Spartacus begins losing hope. This man has an iron will. I kept thinking of Julian Jaynes arguing that none of these people were actually conscious.
I consider myself somewhat of a seasoned old salty dog, but even to me there is an astounding amount of full-peen nudity plus bouncing boobs galore, including those of LUCY LAWLESS. There is lots of faux "ancient Roman" dirty talk ("do you know that the sound of your footsteps is enough to moisten my thighs") and gratuitously-un-commented-on homosexuality. BECAUSE OF ROME. I obviously appreciate all these things.
Anyway it basically turns into a soap opera, where John Hannah and Lucy Lawless are trying to become upper class but their damn gladiators keep not being awesome enough. Lucy Lawless is having an affair with one of the gladiators, which is awkward because he's actually in love with the slave girl who has to stand there and watch them do it seventeen thousand times a day. I really like this guy too, he's got a great face, albeit not Whitfield-caliber.
Needless to say, everyone's bod is smoking hot and tight as hell, except all the gross old men who actually run society, but what else is new, amirite ladies
In conclusion there is a lot of pathos, though nothing on the level of Tony Curtis reciting that poem to Kirk Douglas in the meadow.
(Also sidenote: Can you believe there really were gladiators? It's honestly so gnarly. "Now I've seen everything")


text: Survey Says…More Cooking Equipment Reflections From Operators In "Cooked to Perfection" in the March 2016 issue of School Nutrition, author Cecily Walters presents findings on what the school nutrition operators we talked to value most about their cooking equipment, including conventional ovens, ranges, braisers, combi ovens, steamers and the like. Respondents also shared their frustrations and priorities related to these kitchen essentials. We received so many great responses—and pieces of advice—from our respondents that we're including some of them here in Bonus Web Content. Customer Service From Vendors One-third of school nutrition professionals who responded indicated that the quality of customer service from the vendor in the case of a problem is not to be overlooked. If a problem arises, "It's very important to have the support from the vendor and the manufacturer's representative. They need to stand by the warranty and want to know if we're having challenges," reports Sara Gasiorowski, SNS, child nutrition director for Metropolitan School District of Wayne Township in Indianapolis, Ind.Power SourceWhile the operators who provided responses for this article did not identify the power source for their cooking equipment as a top frustration or as an attribute they would prioritize when purchasing new equipment, it does play a role in the successful functioning of some respondents' current kitchens. Lisa Sims, school nutrition director for Daviess County Public Schools in Owensboro, Ky., values that her cooking equipment works with her operation's existing power sources. "We only have so many power sources, and adding additional power can be quite expensive," she explains. Joanne Kinsey, SNS, director of school nutrition services for Chesapeake (Va.) Public Schools, also commented about power sources, citing that her district is working to convert its buildings to gas when feasible. "Our school division is focused on energy conservation and cost reduction for utility usage. New equipment is spec'd for gas connection as buildings are converted. Along with that, ENERGY STAR® equipment is always a must," she emphasizes. Other Responses of NoteIn addition to those already detailed, a variety of other attributes related to school nutrition cooking equipment were valued and prioritized by respondents, though were not as frequently cited as those already mentioned. These less-frequently cited attributes include: ease of cleaning, recommendations or endorsements from colleagues, footprint/size and training provided by the vendor.In some cases, respondents chose to fill in their own answers for the attributes they found valuable or frustrating or considered priorities. For example, when equipping a new kitchen, Brad Trudeau, SNS, director of student nutrition services for Garland (Texas) Independent School District, explains that he would make sure to find equipment that "conforms with other equipment currently in use. We have our own repair technicians and do not need 15 different brands of ovens to repair," he says. Several respondents detailed the funding difficulties many school nutrition programs face in obtaining new cooking equipment. Anji Baumann, CDM, CFPP, child nutrition director for Gooding and Shoshone School Districts in Gooding, Idaho, notes that "the lack of adequate or available funding to secure new equipment [is a challenge] in an already financially struggling program." Likewise, Joanne Kinsey references the fact that "equipment budgets have been reduced due to the need to focus dollars on the increased food and supply costs local operators face." She avers, "Additional funding sources from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for equipment purchases would be extremely beneficial to school foodservice operations." April Laskey, SNS, director of school nutrition for Billerica (Mass.) Public Schools, offers some advice from her own experience with financing equipment purchases that may be useful for other school nutrition operators. "When looking for funding, I often hope that there are grants available. And I work closely with our business manager to include kitchen equipment needs in any capital expense improvements when possible."
