Kids Are Not the Best Thing in the Real World
Will Wilkinson, Reihan, PEG, and Noah are in the midst of an interesting policy debate about government subsidizing people's decision to have children. I'm happy to stand back and watch that one, but in the meantime I want to co-opt it for my own purposes, namely to pick on PEG's unqualified enthusiasm for having more people on the planet. Here's his summary of his position:
But even more broadly, and this is something I should have written up sooner, my defense of moar kids from a freedom and human welfare perspective is this: stuff is people. Not just Soylent Green. Everything. Corporations are people, my friend. Not in the sense that they have human rights. But in the sense that they are a framework through which people collaborate. Likewise, cities are not a geographical location and building, they're people. Even stuff is people. Your iPhone is people. It's Steve Jobs, it's Jony Ive and it's plenty of Foxconn workers. An iPhone is not a thing, it is a few moments of thousands of people's time. Culture is people. Books is people. Everything we cherish, everything that makes life worth living, is people. More people means more of everything.
More kids boosts freedom, because each person is an infinite amount of new choices to be made, and it obviously boosts welfare, because the world is people and more people makes the world richer.
I don't dispute most of what he says above: most of the things we consider good as human beings—law, science, consumer products—are the result of human bodies at work, and, all things being equal, more people means more minds and more bodies to make more of this good stuff. PEG would say that there is no problem with a lack of space or resources on the planet, so there's no reason why we should be pessimistic about having more people, even a lot more people. They build good things, so why the hell not?
On an extremely superficial level, I agree. But the problem is that this is not an argument—it's just an abstract statement of fact from a particularly sanguine perspective. Apply it to almost any real-world context and it becomes absurd. Even if the planet has the resources to sustain an unlimited human population—a question I don't know the answer to—it doesn't automatically follow that more people will be an unqualified good. The world currently has enough resources to feed its starving population many times over, but that has consistently proved politically impossible. I am skeptical that it will ever be politically possible, no matter how advanced our civilizations and economies become—never mind that such advancement could not be taking place without a corresponding increase in barbarism.
Adding more people to the situation does not obviously improve it; in fact, it seems very likely to aggravate it. I won't say it will in fact make things worse, because I'm not God. But it seems intuitive that in a situation of global political dysfunction—from the crumbling U.S. constitution to the unsolvable European debt crisis to the utter lack of governance in somewhere like Afghanistan to tribal war in Somalia—that increasing the population is at least as likely to make things worse as to improve them. Those extra bodies will not become lawyers, scientists and doctors if they cannot be fed, protected and educated—something already impossible for a huge number of the people currently alive. Just because a human life has the possibility of becoming "a good thing" in a geopolitical utilitarian sense does not mean that it is likely to do so. In fact, I would argue that the more people that are added to a global system already groaning under the strain of political dysfunction and violence, the less likely those new bodies will be able to escape poverty, oppression, or misery.
It's in that context that I find PEG's claim that more kids equals more freedom to be baffling. True, perhaps, in a world where they were all able to participate in "making the world richer," and were magically saved from all the available opportunities to become miserable in, exploited by, or destructive to the human world. As none of us needs to be told, that world will not exist anytime soon. I may be presuming, but I have not yet encountered a single instance where PEG will not claim that more children equals more insert-good-thing-here. But to put it lightly, I find this a cruel insistence. How does having an eighth child for a starving Somalian woman increase anyone's freedom—her own, that of her other children, that of the other mothers and children in her village who are also struggling to stay alive in the midst of tribal warfare and famine?
In light of that, continually asserting the "goodness" of limitless population seems at worst crazy and pernicious, and at best beside the point. I'm not against utopian thinking aimed at expanding the horizon of possibility, and this may be all PEG up to. But calling for more people—literally, right here right now—strikes me as another in a long line of religious arguments that are driven by their metaphysical commitments to ignore—or invent bizarre, convoluted reasoning to explain away—the practical misery for which they are responsible.

Hello! Welp… I'm not going to lie to you, last week was a bit of a bust. I was incredibly exhausted last week and the weather was cool and gloomy and windy and rainy. Generally I'd log some miles on my bike on non-running days, but the weather was not really conducive for a bike ride. BUT! It was Fargo Marathon week last week and that always infuses a lot of excitement into the running community. I was feeling a little bummed that I wasn't running the half marathon this year, but was happy to be out there to participate in the 10k (notice how I didn't say RACE). There were over 10,000 runners between the 5k, 10k, half, and full marathons, and more who participated in the youth runs and other events. My daughter ran her first 1 mile race and it was SO adorable and so fun to share that with her. The look on her face when she got her medal was pure joy, and it reminded me that I need to be grateful that I'm able to run, even though I'm not where I'd like to be right now.
Thyroid update! I got the results back from my thyroid labs and the numbers were BAD. I'll spare the medical jargon, but suffice to say this is probably the explanation behind how terribly running has been for me. My HR and my difficulty with breathing and overall just feeling like I have zero endurance are all likely a result of my thyroid being out of whack. My new medication sent my generally sluggish thyroid into HYPERthyroid and it's been all crazy up in my body. Whoops. Abandoning that medication asap and returning to the old mediation and hope to get things regulated. Fingers crossed it doesn't take too long to get things back to normal because Fall marathon training is quickly approaching!
As for that tiny race recap? Truly my only plan for that 10k was to participate by run/walking it, as I have been doing with all of my runs over the past few weeks. The weather on race morning was absolute PERFECTION. It was 44 degrees, overcast, and not windy. It made me feel sort of resentful that this is the year I only have to run a short race. Last year when I ran the full marathon it was 60 degrees at the start and 80 degrees at the end, with full sunshine. Spring marathons, right? Anyway, as always the crowd support was phenomenal and it was fun to just be out there, enjoying myself and being a part of the experience. I ended up doing a little more running than I thought I'd be able to run, and didn't stop for a walk break until mile 2.5. Most of my runs as of late have been running 3-5 min, with a 2 min walk. I just did my thing and had fun and I purposely did not look at my Garmin for the entire race. If I looked, it would cause all sorts of shame spiraling. It was great practice at staying in the moment and listening to my body. The race was about mental training more than anything else, really. Oh, last week I mentioned that I was going to ditch the music…. I caved. But I left my phone behind and went low-tech with my trusty old iPod Shuffle that has not likely been used since last year's Fargo Marathon. I kept the volume down low and had it paused for quite a bit of the race. What can I say, I just like having a soundtrack to my life experiences! My finishing time was 1:10:27, which translates to 11:21 pace. I didn't even look at my Garmin stats until an hour after the race, because it felt so freeing to care so little about a race time. In the end, I was actually pleased that my pace was 11:21, because I did quite a bit of walking and expected it to be much slower.
Below are the few runs I actually DID do last week:
Monday 5.15: I was feeling sluggish and unmotivated and really sick of my neighborhood routes, so I decided to go run the trails at a park that is just a mile from my house. It's a fantastic little park and I never run there because I guess I just focus on road running. I figured my run/walk strategy actually works really well with trail running. It was SO FUN and just great to spend time with the trees and the trail and the river. I really need to do more trail running. 5 miles, 11:42 pace
Tuesday 5.16: Off
Wednesday 5.17: run/ walk on the treadmill. 4 miles, 11:46 pace.
Thursday 5.18: Went for an hour walk after work and ran the 1 mile youth race with Bea.
Friday 5.19: What is wrong with me? No running. Went for a 45 minute walk, though.
Saturday 5.20: Fargo Marathon 10k. 11:21 pace.
Sunday 5.21: Not much. Did a couple of 5 minute Jasyoga reset videos. Got my period and suddenly the fatigue and week of being a sloth made sense.
Total miles: 15.2

Automate Your OS X App Installations
"To install, drag this icon..." no more!
I refined my original cask script for installing the software needed on multiple Mac workstations. The new version now allows you to configure parameters of the installation such as install path and which category of applications you wish to install.
The point of this tool is to help me configure (or reconfigure) workstations as needed by removing the manual work of finding the applications I always use online, unpacking, and copying to applications folder. That process becomes a tedious task when working with dozens of pieces of software.
Fork it for your own use on Github!
Why a sudden update?
A new version of OS X El Capitan is to be released very soon. I've always felt installing a fresh OS ran smoother than doing an upgrade. Maybe the scars are that deep from the days of going Windows 95 to 98? Idk.
Anyways, I'll be doing a fresh install of El Capitan and I wanted to make sure my apps were in order since I've last used my cask script. The process of manually installing each app takes longer than the actual OS install. Furthermore, I don't need all apps installed in one shot so I broke them up into installable category groups… Something I have been itching to do since the original mockup.
How it works
You'll notice a file called
install.rb in the project root. This is the
script you will interface with for installing (or uninstalling) applications.
Applications are grouped by categories located in the
./category folder
where you can add more or less.
You can get a list of configurable options by running the
-h help option.
ruby install.rb -h
The default location cask uses for Application shortcuts is
~/Applications. I
change this setting in my install command to point to
ruby install.rb --appdir=/Applications
Name of the application category group to install (or uninstall). The category
name should reference a file in the
./category/ directory, excluding the file
extension. If no category group is specified then all will be installed.
ruby install.rb --category=browsers
ruby install.rb -c browsers
This changes the default
install option to
uninstall. With this flag on you
can uninstall a category group or uninstall everything. This option requires no additional arguments.
ruby install.rb -c browsers --uninstall
ruby install.rb -c browsers -u
Follow the GitHub repository for updates and please add any feature requests to the project issues. I welcome pull requests :)
Known issues
Unfortunately there is no way to specify the specific version of an app that you need. This hasn't been much of an issue for me yet but I know it would be nice to have.

What makes a scone a lazy morning scone? How about a desire to sleep in but still have a freshly baked pumpkin packed glazed treat without the fuss of kneading, rolling, and cutting. Short of driving to Starbuck's to pick up a pumpkin scone, these scones are as easy as it gets. A food processor makes quick work of cutting butter into the dough before mixing in some pumpkin puree and buttermilk. Then the dough gets scooped out, smoothed over, and sprinkled with some raw sugar before being popped in the oven. Brew a pot of your favorite coffee or tea to go with the warm scones and you've got a good start to your lazy morning.
These scones almost didn't come to be. I had actually been trying out a more typical scone recipe but I felt the dough was too dry so I added more of all the wet ingredients. Of course, the dough then became too wet and had absolutely no chance of being rolled and cut. Not wanting to throw away the whole batch, I decided to scoop the dough out and bake it anyway. I was pleasantly surprised that the scones held their shape. Although the texture needed some work (it was too close to being a muffin), the flavor of the scones and the ability to just scoop out the dough made it worth working out the right balance of wet and dry ingredients. I think I hit it with this batch. It has all the pumpkin and spice flavor of a traditional pumpkin scone with only half the work.
We actually saw temperatures in the 70's this week so it's kinda, sort of starting to feel like fall here. Maybe if I bake enough of these pumpkin scones I can fool myself into thinking it really is fall.
Lazy Morning Pumpkin Scones with Vanilla Glaze
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 25 minutes
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 8 large scones 1x
For the scones
- 1 cup canned pure pumpkin
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¾ cup (1½ sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1–2 tablespoons raw sugar, for sprinkling
For the glaze
- 1 cup confectioner's sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 vanilla bean, scraped
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the scones
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin and buttermilk until combined. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt; pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles pea-size crumbs. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add the pumpkin mixture. Stir together until no more flour is visible. Mixture will look dry at first but keep mixing – it will come together.
- With a large ice-cream scoop (I used a 1/2 cup scoop), scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches between each scone. Using a small offset spatula or knife, flatten the tops of each scone then sprinkle scones with raw sugar.
- Bake scones for 20-25 minutes or until they are lightly browned with slightly dry exteriors and cake tester inserted into center of scones comes out clean. Allow the scones to cool slightly before spreading with glaze.
For the glaze
- Whisk together confectioner's sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, vanilla bean seeds, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Glaze should be runny but still thick enough to cling to the scone. Add more milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Drizzle (or spread) glaze on cooled scones.

There's one person that automatically knows what that means when she sees it and is already laughing. This refers to a friend's list of all the reasons why she does not have children. She has threatened to actually start writing these reasons down.
My own first reason is that I haven't had a date in ## years, but... My second reason is that I don't want the full time responsibility. My third is that I wouldn't want my children to be like me. Children climbing light poles like monkeys comes up on the list somewhere as well.
This is one thing I do know. I would NOT make a good stay-at-home-working-mom. At least during the summer.
I love, love, love, love, love my nieces to death. I'm just not a very effective 8 hour a day worker while they are in my house. That's all on me, not on them.
There are times I get distracted at home alone in trying to focus. Oh yeah, I need to dry those clothes. I really need to take that trash out. Etc., etc., etc. Then, there comes the, "what can I do's?"
I am really trying to hone in my focus. Today, I feel scattered. Even as I'm trying to figure out what to write so that I can call it a day and turn off the computer. I have great admiration for the moms out there with full time jobs taking care of their kids plus working a job from home (our outside the home) for that matter. I got in the habit of the mucho, mucho, mucho hours at the office and no life for so long that I'm still adjusting to a different approach of my time, making time to routinely schedule time to walk with Rachel every day and have a decent quitting time among other things.
Maybe I should go back to getting up at 7 in the mornings instead of 8. I've been giving myself the hour after wearing myself out for way too long. Then, I can quit waffling on Rachel about what time we go walk.
I had to go to the grocery store at lunch to stock my freezer of each of their favorite Toaster Strudels since this summer there may be a lot of popping in and out. The house and the toaster. At least I have the grocery store trip that I've been putting off taken care of!
Welcome to the online home of Audra Jennings, a book publicist and crafter. Here I share about both. I hope you'll find books you'll want to read and crafts you will want to order. I live a rather boring, single life. At times I would like to think I am humorous. The kids I teach in Bible class tend to think so. I also blog about current seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. I don't know why, I just do.

This wassail makes all of my childhood (and who am I kidding, present day) holiday memories come right back. My grandmother always makes it and not only does smell amazing but its so delicious. Everyone in our family loves it and its always a staple. She always serves it in huge batches and I'm constantly refilling my mug. If you aren't familiar with it, its basically an enhanced apple cider with German origins.
The recipe is so simple. I'll be serving this up here for us while we hand out candy to trick or treaters but made it ahead of time on the stove and bottled it in mason jars to have some to easily reheat and freeze since its just the two of us.
3 parts apple cider
2 parts cranberry cocktail (if you use cranberry juice, use more sugar to sweeten)
1 part OJ or pineapple juice, or both)
Sugar to taste (approx 1-1.5 cups in a gallon)
7-8 cinnamon sticks, 5-6 whole cloves in cheesecloth
Bring to a boil and let simmer
I used:
6 cups cider
4 cups cranberry juice
2 cups orange juice
1 1/4 cups sugar
Do you have any family favorite holiday drinks?

IncrementGilles Chanteau
The GILE_INCR command opens the Increment dialog.
In its left part, the dialog provides common controls for all tools.
- The 'Value Type' frame is used to specify the incrementable value type (numeric, alphabetic, alphanumeric, hexadecimal or roman numerals).
- The 'Parameters' frame provides text boxes to set the initial value, the increment value and some optional settings: a separator character, a prefix, a suffix.
- The OK button launches an action according to the selected tab. The action repeats incrementing the value until the user do not Esc, Enter or Space to get out of control.
In its right part, the dialog provides four tabs to specify the settings of each different actions.
- The 'Attribute' tab is used to increment an attribute value at each block insertion. The user selects the block to insert and the attribute to increment, he also can set some block properties (global scale and rotation).
- The 'Text' tab is used to create a text object which value is incremented at each insertion. The user can set some text properties (text style, justification, height and rotation).
- The 'Selection' tab is used to edit existing Text, Mtext or Attribute objects by prefixing, suffixing or replacing them with an incremented value. The user chooses one or more entity type and selects the action to perform.
- The 'Auto' tab allows to automatically increment a selection set of texts, mtexts or block attributes according to ascending or descending X and Y coordinates.

A1 A2 etc then when you reach say A48 the A changes to B and the number goes back to 1. Should be able to choose the count before the change in leters.

Big picture
The chances of the BPL final being a one-sided affair are fairly high. If even one of Dhaka Dynamites' departments - either the top-order batsmen or the spin bowlers - fire full throttle, then Rangpur Riders will struggle in the finale. At the same time, if Chris Gayle, Brendon McCullum or Johnson Charles repeat what they did earlier in the playoffs, Dhaka could very well be out of the contest quite early.
Evin Lewis, Joe Denly, Shahid Afridi and Sunil Narine have struck 56 sixes among them, and have batted at a strike-rate of 144.61. Every time they have fired with the bat, Dhaka have cruised to victory. Afridi and Narine also form part of Dhaka's three-man spin attack including the captain Shakib Al Hasan, and the trio has been relentless through the season. Shakib is the tournament's leading wicket-taker while Afridi already has two four-wicket hauls. Narine, meanwhile, has been the tournament's most frugal bowler after Rashid Khan, conceding at five per over in 11 matches.
Gayle, Charles and McCullum have come late to the party, but they have peaked at the right time for Rangpur. Gayle and Charles have both scored hundreds in the qualifiers while McCullum hammered nine sixes in his whirlwind 78 in the second of those matches. Gayle has a bit of an ankle injury concern but according to Mashrafe Mortaza, it is nothing he can't shake off.
All in all, it promises to be an intriguing battle between the two teams' spin bowlers and their top orders. Dhaka are the clear favourites, but momentum can act in funny ways.
Form guide
(last five completed matches, most recent first)
Dhaka Dynamites WWWLW
Rangpur Riders WWLWL
In the spotlight
Abu Hider, the left-arm pace bowler, has won Shakib's praise for doing a good job in their spin-heavy attack. Hider has taken 15 wickets at an average of 18.20.
Nazmul Islam is an uncapped left-arm spinner who has a unique celebration style, but apart from that, he has been Rangpur's most effective bowler in the middle overs. He may play a crucial role when Dhaka bat.
Team news
Dhaka is likely to stick to their XI that crushed Comilla Victorians in the first Qualifier. There is no merit in meddling with a successful bowling attack although they might try to make room for Mohammad Amir.
Dhaka Dynamites (probable): 1 Mehedi Maruf, 2 Evin Lewis, 3 Joe Denly, 4 Kieron Pollard, 5 Shakib Al Hasan (capt), 6 Shahid Afridi, 7 Mosaddek Hossain, 8 Sunil Narine, 9 Jahurul Islam (wk), 10 Abu Hider, 11 Mohammad Saddam
After the win in the second Qualifier, Rangpur are unlikely to make any changes for the final.
Rangpur Riders (probable): 1 Chris Gayle, 2 Johnson Charles, 3 Brendon McCullum, 4 Mohammad Mithun (wk), 5 Ravi Bopara, 6 Nahidul Islam, 7 Mashrafe Mortaza (capt), 8 Sohag Gazi, 9 Isuru Udana, 10 Nazmul Islam, 11 Rubel Hossain
Pitch and conditions
The Mirpur pitches have been mostly under covers due to the steady drizzle of the last few days. There has been some improvement in the bounce of the pitches, according to some players. Rain is likely to stay away on the evening of the final.
Stats and trivia
Sunil Narine's economy rate of 5.00 runs per over this season is the lowest among bowlers to have bowled at least 40 overs in a single T20 tournament.
Brendon McCullum and Johnson Charles added 151 runs for the second wicket in their last game - now a new BPL record for that wicket - breaking the 150-run stand between Shahriar Nafees and Dawid Malan in 2016.
"We have a good bowling attack, and apart from the three spinners, [Abu Hider] Rony and Mosaddek [Hossain] has also bowled well this season. Our batting too has found consistency now. I think we have the overall consistency and momentum, and we will try to win the final."
Dhaka captain Shakib Al Hasan on how his spin attack is shaping up
"Among the four teams in the playoffs, we were the least favourite."
Mashrafe Mortaza, the Rangpur Riders captain, about their progress into the final

Ithink this is an American Clipper.
Watch ticks away nicely most of the time but is missing the seconds hand! Unfortunately, someone has damaged the case back so badly that only the first digit of the case serial is visible - an 8.
Any comments on how to restore or enhance the watch are most welcome.
Ha! You outbid me on this one! Still you got a bargain, bob.
Try warm, soapy water and cotton buds on the dial, and if that doesn't do anything, you could try varying degrees of diluted spirit vinegar, and then after fresh water is used to remove the vinegar mix and it is still dirty, try a little bi-carbonate of soda diluted in water, still using buds. Only use these things if you are confident, and rub the dial lightly, as too harsh a cleaning action will remove any painted areas, minute track, sub dial etc.
American Clipper "F"
The dial on these are tough to clean up, as bobbee stated, soapy water with vinegar will work, but rather than using Q-tips, try these... http://www.microbrush.com/automotive/products/ultrabrush/
You can apply better pressure, and the fibers don't hang up on the applied numbers like a cotton swab. Don't get the dial too wet, or the printed stuff will come right off.
You will have to pull the dial for the best results.
I vote for "F". We see a "white dial unengraved on leather" as a "B" (top image below). IMO there's probably a "white dialed engraved on leather" as a yet-unknown variant (like the "B"), but we don't have the ad showing us this (yet). The "F" gives more info than the generic, the case/dial can't be "confused" with any other ad we have to date, and I can always assign two ticks to note this possibility.
1939 ad shows the plain bezel 'American Clipper' on a link bracelet.
In the descriptive text please note the Watch was also available on a "tan pigskin strap".
The Watch on a Tan pigskin strap was sold through this vendor as # 4 K 1164 which has been positively ID'd by a second ad as the 'B' variant.
The Watch on a Safety link bracelet was sold through this vendor as # 4 K 1165 - an unidetified variant.
There is no reason to believe the engraved Case versions do not follow this trend.
"F" in this instace is a guess at best and based on all the evidence incorrect - It's better to enter a generic model record into the database than an incorrectly ID'd variant.
Best to put the nearest model, which is the American Clipper "F". TheAC on leather band probably has another variant letter, but we don't have an ad for it as yet. This watch has what looks like pigskin band, but may not be original.
All those numbers are probably the Vendor's catalogue numbers, and nothing to do with the watch ID.
I agree with both Bobbee and Fifth. :) The Subject watch on leather will turn out to be a different variant, but we don't know what letter yet. By calling this one the "F" and I tick as tentative, folks get a little more info about this watch today. It's not going to turn out to be the "F", but the "F" ad shows the watch/case regardless what that unknown "on leather" letter variant turns out to be.
The numbers in the ad above are vendors numbers which internally are cross-referenced to the unique Bulova product ID/model number. That's how the vendor ordered the specific watch from Bulova. So we don't get to "see" their cross-reference. However we do get to "see" what those numbers represent in the instances where we have ads showing us the specific model- as in the "B" variant example give above. So by proxy, they do help with the ID.

As time passes, our facial skin and especially our eyelids, often make us look older or more tired than we really feel. Cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) by Grene Vision Group ophthalmologists Samuel W. Amstutz, MD, fellowship-trained oculoplastic surgeon, and Brian H. Strange, MD can restore a more youthful appearance to your eyelids. They have performed thousands of procedures.
Blepharoplasty is a frequently performed procedure to remove fullness from the upper and/or lower eyelids. In this relatively minor surgery, Dr. Amstutz and Dr. Strange design and personalize each procedure to restore a more natural, youthful appearance. Eyelid surgery is done through carefully placed incisions along the natural lines or folds of your eyelids, allowing the incisions to remain hidden from normal view. Lower eyelid surgery can be done through the inside of the lid thereby eliminating a skin incision altogether. Most procedures can be performed in our minor surgery suite in the office..
The two Grene Vision Group board-certified ophthalmologists have performed thousands of eyelid surgeries.

This Cereal Cafe By Bong Qiu Qiu Looks To Succeed Where Others Failed - By Being IG-Friendly
I still remember being filled with jealousy when I first heard about Cereal Killer cafe in London.
A simple yet ingenious idea, it was opened by a pair of identical twins, Alan and Gary Keery, who had cravings for "a sugary cereal fix" while hungover and out for lunch.
"I wish there was somewhere we could go to buy a bowl of cereal."
From that, the birth of Cereal Killer, a cafe selling over 120 different types of cereal, was set in motion.
3 years on, the cafe has not just thrived, but expanded overseas to Kuwait, Dubai, and Jordan as well.
That isn't to say that the concept wasn't tried out in Singapore before.
Back in 2012, there was a similarly named Cereal Killer bar, based at Singapore Management University. However, there seems to be no news about them since their last post in October 2012.
In 2014, contender The Cereal Pantry popped up at Telok Blangah, but if social media postings are an indication, also closed down in the same year.
So perhaps while opening a cereal cafe in Singapore sounds great in theory, the reality isn't as sweet.
However, 2 local Instagram personalities/influencers have gotten together with a lawyer friend to rekindle that spark with their cereal cafe (yes, another punny name) Cereal Citizen.
Cereal Citizen – An Idea 2 Years In The Making
View this post on Instagram
Finally ready to announce this.. @pxdkitty @carolynlimz and myself will be opening our very own cozy cafe after 2 years of planning, huge disruption and finally getting back on track again.. Our cafe is opening in a weeks time. Big big big thank you to the competent, reliable and efficient team at Cr8ate (www.facebook.com/cr8ate), thank you Michelle, Brandon and the team of professionals who understand what we need, inform us of what we don't know we might need and for being so quick on what you do. You guys are basically lifesavers for all cafe-startups and young couple trying to build a beautiful cozy nest becox they know how to give us what we need within a budget we gave them. Which honestly, was quite an impossible budget 🙈🙊😂 2 weeks ago, we went for final site-check and kicked off renovation. And we even stole a "Congrats" balloon from our neighbour who just opened for business 🌚 #CheapskateUntillll 😂 Rachell especially has been working like a bull, relentless and never-say-die despite how tired and busy she is. We are very very very blessed to have her 😌 Hopefully we three won't kill each other or hurt each other's feelings with insults at work next time 🙂 So far it's not looking very good. But hey.. We're FINALLY getting very very close to opening!!! It's gonna be a happy place, for happy people, serving happy food 😁 And it's gonna be kids-friendly so bring all your babies and kids to play with me pleaseee 😍😍😍 Promise i am a nice boss 🙂👹😂 C'mon guys, i use emoji, i'm easy-going, cool and fun. LOL. Congratulations to @carolynlimz @pxdkitty and myself ☺ We finally almost did it, soon. Haha 🤪 Update: Removed the hiring part cox less than 1 hour we got like 100 people dm-ing us 😱 Thank you guys so much!!! ❤❤❤
Founded by social media personalities Qiu Ting (@bongqiuqiu) and Rachell (@pxdkitty), alongside their friend Carolyn, who is a lawyer, starting a cereal cafe was actually an idea 2 years in the making.
"[We] had this idea over 2 years ago and went looking around at place to rent, [however], some disruption happened in between."
While she declined to comment on it, one can guess that the disruption was Qiu Ting's messy lawsuit with her former agency ChurpChurp in September 2016.
In July 2017, it was announced that both sides decided to amicably settle the court case, putting an end to an emotionally draining period for Qiu Ting.
However, the dream of opening a cereal cafe still persisted.
"Carolyn asked Qiu for ideas [on what cafe to open] and Qiu suggested for her to talk to Rach about it. And that's how we decided to do it together!"
And if 'Cereal Citizen' sounds like 'senior citizen' – that's actually the point.
"The name came about as a joke. Carolyn said 'Cereal Citizen' sounded like 'senior citizen' but Rach and Qiu really liked it so..'Cereal Citizen' it was!"
But why a cereal cafe?
Qiu has a dream to start a cafe, but no talent in cooking!
On a more serious note, it was also because the trio related to the struggles of the adventurous cereal eater – the one who wants to try new flavours, but is afraid of the commitment that comes with purchasing a box.
"We always want to try so many different [types of] cereal, but don't want commit to one big pack as it would be boring. [There is also uncertainty about whether] it'd be nice or not, and if we can't finish the pack in time."
Noticing that there wasn't any cereal cafe in Singapore, they decided that the time was ripe to start up, and each pumped in a 4-digit figure into the venture.
On 10 Jan, they officially opened for business at a humble space in Hougang Midtown mall.
As a Hougang resident myself, I wondered why they chose Hougang Midtown, a relatively quiet location as compared to nearby malls like Heartland Mall or Hougang Mall.
Other than the fact that the team all live near Hougang, and that rental is cheaper than larger malls, they also know that "good things spread fast" due to the estate's "strong and powerful community [spirit]".
Midtown's tenants also include enrichment centres for kids, "and we can't think of any other customers who love cereal more than kids!"
View this post on Instagram
Thank you @toddleythoughts for the very cute Chinese zodiac family matchy tees 😍👨👩👧👧 Papa is mouse, i'm rabbit, Meredith is goat and Amelia rooster ☺ This is so cute for CNY home-visits right!!! They have many other customised designs! You may enjoy 10% off when you quote Meredith10 and their CNY orders closes on 22 Jan 😍
A doting mother of 2 adorable daughters herself, Qiu definitely had her own kids in mind when crafting the menu and decorating the shop.
"Maybe adults who are young at heart [too] but yeah, Midtown is also surrounded by schools so [the location is] quite awesome!"
"Business Has Been Surprisingly Good"
While essentially a cereal cafe where you can customise their own bowls of crunch, they also serve milkshakes and 'Crododo' (their version of a cronut).
I've witnessed Qiu consuming copious amounts of Crododos on her personal Instagram account, and her love for them isn't just because she's biased towards her own product – it has also proved to be a hit among customers, having sold out their stocks on several days.
As a special promotion, customers also get a 10% discount off their total bill if they do a special 'Crododo' dance.
Since opening, they revealed that "business has been surprisingly good", and even had 40 people waiting in line for their order on one night – no simple feat for a new cafe.
While the shop has a stable of full-timers to helm the ship during most of its opening hours, the founders still pop into the store every day to oversee operations, albeit still holding their regular jobs.
It's really like taking care of a new baby. You have to carry it in a cradle initially, then slowly it'd learn how to walk but you still gotta hold its hands…then when it's more stable, that's when you can learn to let go a little more – just a tiny weeny bit, I mean!
Future Plans: Promoting Cereal Citizen As An Event Space
But more than just another cafe, there are also plans to diversify the business and promote Cereal Citizen as an event venue.
Currently they've already clinched a number of bookings so far, and they've observed that most of them are for kids' birthdays, sweet 16 celebrations, or 21st birthday parties.
"I can understand (the trend), [because] who doesn't love a Cereal Bar with a huge selection of toppings right? It's like a candy shop for everyone!"
Cereal cafes are practically non-existent in Singapore currently, so I asked if they've spotted any direct competitors, and how they're going to differentiate themselves lest any pops up.
"So far [we've not seen any] yet!"
"But if any pops up we'd just keep doing what we intend to do – to stay fresh, stay cool, and keep the brand growing in the direction we intend for it to grow into."

Australia's 'Stoner Sloth' Anti-Marijuana Campaign Is an Instant and Classic Fail
Young people love ads meant to shame them
There's a long and not-very-proud tradition of anti-drug advertising that gets ridiculed for missing the mark with young audiences. Australia's New South Wales government just added a classic new entry to that hall of shame with #StonerSloth, a campaign designed to shame teens who get high—but who are finding the ads hilariously delightful instead.
In three short videos, marijuana has turned teens into giant sloths—and the metaphor is made literal, as the kids are actually depicted as giant hairy beasts with long, curved claws. Socially, they're utterly useless. All they can do is moan, since they're so high. And they can't take tests at school, make small talk at parties, or—most comically, if unintentionally so—even pass the salt at dinner.
"You're worse on weed," claims the tagline.
The campaign is so cartoony and weird that teens, rather than learning any lessons from it, are embracing it as one big joke. There are already parody videos, endless Twitter jokes—and even a "Pass the salt" sloth T-shirt for sale.
The New South Wales Department of Premier and Cabinet is standing by the campaign, at least for now. "The 'Stoner Sloth' public awareness campaign has been designed to encourage positive behaviors in young people before bad habits start, and motivate discontinued use of cannabis before they become dependent," a rep said in a statement. "The campaign is designed to appeal to, and be 'shareable' among, teenagers, who are some of the most vulnerable to cannabis use. We know that younger audiences respond more to campaigns highlighting the short-term consequences of their actions."
Well, it certainly is shareable, which is more than you can say for many such campaigns. Of course, that came at the price of becoming a laughingstock. Indeed, even Australia's National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre has disowned the work.
Check out the best of the Twitter reaction below, including a couple of tweets from New South Wales premier Mike Baird.
Just saw the #StonerSloth ads. Not sure where NSW Gov's ad guys found Chewbaccas siblings, but those videos are… Quite something.

I've been assured no sloths were harmed in the making of those #StonerSloth ads.

Recommended Anatomy Books:
Anatomy Coloring Book
The Anatomy Coloring Book is one of the best study and reference books for beginning anatomy students. The diagrams are clearly labeled and allow you to see the relationship and placement of the various structures of the body. You will also be surprised how the act of coloring will help with recall. But this is not just a beginners book, it is also great for practitioners and therapists to have on hand to use with clients and patients to use as a visual reference.
Human Muscle Anatomy
The Trail Guide To The Body is another excellent book to help you learn the musculature of the human body. Though the book is geared toward massage therapists and physical therapist assistants, the book with its illustrations and text helps anyone gain a thorough understanding of the human musculoskeletal system and movement. I highly recommend this book for anyone studying anatomy and believe that MTs, PTAs, and teachers of body movements should have this book in their possession. I also highly recommend this book for the lay person who wants to gain understanding of the muscle, skeletal system and how our bodies move. This book will not disappoint!
Basic Clinical Massage Therapy
Out of the scores of books in my office Basic Clinical Massage Therapy is by far the most referenced book in my library. The musculoskeletal system is overlaid on human models allowing you to learn the precise location, origin and insertions of each muscle. The models are pictured in various poses throughout the book which also helps you visualize muscles in motion and their actions relationship with the skeletal structure and other muscles. Though it is written for massage therapists, it is an excellent book for anyone who wants to learn about the muscular system. MT's will benefit from recommended treatments for each muscle.
Muscle Anatomy Flashcards
Musculoskeletal Anatomy Flashcards Are you a student or professional therapist who needs to brush up on the musculoskeletal system? Dr. Joseph E. Muscolino DC has developed a comprehensive set of flashcards that will help develop a mind's picture of exactly where the muscles lie under the skin. A highly recommended study aid for students. Great for non students who want an easy comprehensive anatomy guide.Advertisement

Most of you have probably seen HDR photography before - even if you didn't realize it at the time. HDR stands for high dynamic range and is a technique used to combine photographs taken under various exposures to produce an effect that is often quite beautiful. In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to shoot and edit HDR photographs in Photoshop. We will discuss what bracketing means and how to shoot multiple exposures and then merge them together into one HDR image with the HDR Pro option in Photoshop CS5. We will also talk about the faux HDR effect called HDR toning for which you only need a single exposure but it still creates a very believable HDR effect. Let's get started!

Pertussis (whooping cough) is a bacterial disease that is particularly severe in infants and newborns. We were all stunned and heartbroken when we heard about little Riley Hughes who lost his life to whooping cough earlier this year.
Since then, Riley's parents Greg & Catherine have done an amazing job raising awareness around the disease with their work thru their Light for Riley organisation and we are so pleased they could partner with us on this #babybumpjab campaign.
Cath wrote to our members to encourage them to join this campaign - read her message here.
Thankfully whooping cough is a preventable disease and we can protect ourselves and our children by getting the third trimester whooping cough booster shot. Recently all Australian states have introduced free whooping cough booster for mothers in their third trimester. Getting your #babybumpjab will help protect mums contracting the disease, but also protect your newborn.
It is also important that not only expecting mums get their #babybumpjab, but anyone who will come in contact with newborns get their booster shoots too (looking at you dads, grandparents, aunts & uncles, etc)!
Please join our campaign and help us raise awareness for the third trimester whooping cough booster. Sign the petition on the right hand side of this page and we'll send you the tools and resources you can use to help educate yourself and your friends.
Finally, below you will also find information about how and where you can get your free #babybumpjab in your state:

This is the part of the gaming post where I establish a little context. Maybe I tell you how a particular genre is doing on Android, or how well this developer's previous games have been received. I could do that, but I won't, because the theme song in the trailer for Combat Monsters is kind of blowing my mind. It's easily worthy of a 1980s cartoon sponsored by Hasbro.
Rubicon is the developer of the extremely solid Great Little War Game series, and Combat Monsters doesn't stray too far out of their wheelhouse. You've still got turn-based, hexagonal tactical gameplay, but this time it's definitely got a bit of an anime slant. The titular Monsters are spawned and modified with collectible cards a la Magic: The Gathering. The combined mechanics means that you'll have to rely on both a well-constructed deck and sound tactics to win, taking advantage of troop placement, environmental hazards, and special abilities.
Combat Monsters is played in full 3D, and while it's not going to take home any prizes for visuals, it's certainly got its own charm. There are over 100 "monsters" that you can summon, though mostly they look like super-deformed fantasy characters. There's a huge focus on multiplayer combat: local and online fights are supported with up to six players, and you can even play cross-platform with opponents on the Kindle Fire, PC, or iOS. Your account is synced via Rubicon's servers, so switching over to a PC or iPad won't mean losing your progress.
It's just too bad that Rubicon switched to a free-to-play model with their latest title. In traditional card game style, cards have to be purchased in randomized packs with in-game currency. You can grind through the main game and save up, or spend real money for (fake) cards. At least there's some element of luck: there's no guarantee that you won't get duplicates from new card packs, so players can't just spend huge amounts of money for the best monsters.
Combat Monsters is a free download for devices running Android 2.3.3 or higher.

Description Working Group for technical discussions". It is my great
pleasure to invite you to submit to our 2014 workshop on Web APIs
and RESTful Design.
In the name of the organizers,
Thomas Steiner, Employee, Google Inc.
http://blog.tomayac.com, http://twitter.com/tomayac
WS-REST 2014 – Fifth International Workshop on Web APIs and RESTful Design
WWW2014 – 7 April 2014 – Seoul, Korea
Who? Web researchers and engineers working on API servers and clients
What? A full-day workshop on current and future challenges for Web
APIs and their interaction
Why? Web APIs are more important than ever, yet many unsolved
problems demand our attention
When? Full-day workshop on 7 April 2014 – paper submissions before 7
January (hard deadline)
Where? At the WWW2014 conference in Seoul, Korea
Thousands of APIs exist and their number is growing tremendously,
while use cases become increasingly complex. In contrast to the
human-oriented part of the Web, Web APIs are designed to be used by
machines. This makes issues surrounding their design and integration
significantly different from those of the traditional Web. However,
this also enables the provisioning of new added-value automated
solutions on the Web.
The discussion surrounding Web APIs and RESTful services is often held
outside of research communities. This workshop brings together
researchers and practitioners by providing an open discussion forum
around the design and use of the programmable Web. It is the principal
venue for discussing latests findings and research and development
results around the issues, practices, and best principles surrounding
Web APIs design and their use.
We especially welcome research and engineering work in the following areas:
- development of intelligent and generic Web API clients
- dynamic combination of and interactions between Web APIs
- novel hypermedia-driven solutions
- tackling the tremendous growth and heterogeneity of APIs
- analysis and understanding of the social and economic factors
surrounding the development, use, and adoption of Web APIs and mashups
- novel solutions for the automated discovery and profiling of Web APIs
- novel technologies for facilitating the development of mashups and
services for the Web of Things
- lessons learnt from the deployment, maintenance and evolution of Web
APIs and mashups
In addition to the topics above, this workshop is also open to:
- applications of the REST architectural style to novel domains
- design patterns and anti-patterns for Web APIs
- automated Web API composition
- inverted REST (REST for push events)
- integration of pub/sub with REST
- REST-compliant transaction models
- frameworks for Web API implementation and consumption
- modeling Web APIs
- resource design and granularity
- evolution, versioning and extension of Web APIs
- REST-protocols beyond HTTP
We welcome full papers (8 pages) and vision papers (4 pages) in the
WS-REST ACM template,
available at http://ws-rest.org/2014/cfp.
Paper submission: Jan 7, 2014 through EasyChair
Notification: Feb 4, 2014
Camera-ready: Feb 12, 2014
Workshop: Apr 7, 2014 at WWW2014 in Seoul, Korea
WS-REST2014 is organized by:

The Rolling Stones Bring Out the Hits -- and the Stars -- at Surprise Club Show (Video)
They came. They rocked. They rolled... in an insanely small venue.
Legendary band The Rolling Stones played a surprise gig at Los Angeles' Echoplex on Saturday night. The club, normally home to hipster acts on coveted weekend slots, has a capacity of 700. Admittance was granted by lottery, held in early afternoon with tickets selling for $20 a pop.
The show comes just five days before Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood, Charlie Watts and friends kick off a North American tour at L.A.'s Staples Center on May 3, and while it was clear they were still working out some kinks, says one lucky concert-goer, "The band was on from the minute they stepped on the stage."
PHOTOS: Stars Celebrate 'Motown: The Musical' on Opening Night
The set list, according to the band's official twitter and reports still coming in, was heavy on older material but also debuted a couple of new songs. The band opened with "You Got Me Rocking" followed by "Respectable," "She's So Cold" and "Live With Me," the latter featuring Bobby Keys on saxophone. Jagger strapped on a guitar himself for a cover of The Temptations' "Just My Imagination" and later whipped out a harmonica solo. Other highlights included "Miss You," covers of Otis Redding's "That's How Strong My Love Is" (Jagger's introduction: "We're gonna do a ballad now, a kinda soul ballad anyway"), Chuck Berry's "Little Queenie" and the late-set appearance of "Midnight Rambler."
The band, which included Chuck Leavell on keys, Darryll Jones on bass and Mick Taylor on guitar, encored with "Brown Sugar" and "Jumpin' Jack Flash" (see the full set list here and watch highlights from the show below). From start to finish, the set clocked in at 90 minutes.
STORY: Can the Concert Industry Survive After Mick Jagger and Madonna Retire?
According to audience members, famous faces and industry bigwigs could be seen throughout the crowd. Among them: Johnny Depp, Bruce Willis, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Skrillex, Brian Grazer, Steve Bing and Jim Gianopulos.
But ultimately, all eyes were transfixed on the main event. Asked what stood out, one concert-goer told THR, "How much fun they were having; how good Mick sounded; how completely engaging and theatrical and funny they are. It was really intimate and special and the whole band was on fire."
Set List:
You Got Me Rocking
She's So Cold
Live with Me
Street Fighting Man
That's How Strong My Love Is
Little Queenie
Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)
Miss You
Love in Vain
Midnight Rambler
Start Me Up
Brown Sugar
Jumpin' Jack Flash

From time-traveling murderbots to nuke-stealing terrorists, there's nothing Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn't punched, kicked or detonated.
The venerable action hero and Hollywood icon owned the '80s and '90s with such action classics as "The Terminator," "Predator" and "Total Recall." Whether armed with a small arsenal or just with his fists, the once and future Governator proved that there's no problem that can't be solved without a generous helping of violence, followed by a good post-death blow quip.
While the action star fell a bit short this summer with his return to the land of Skynet in "Terminator Genisys," we still love seeing the big guy on the big screen. As Arnuld turns 68 (?!) today, let's celebrate his birthday with ten of the greatest gifts he's ever given us -- his action movies.

In the first episode, Jenna hangs out with her first cancer friend and talks about hair issues and other random stuff. Where else can you get hairless cats, testicles, knitting, and the occasional bit of salty language all in one place? (The episode is also Jenna's first go at editing audio so ... be gentle people. She had cancer, you know. Too much cancer card? OK, rescinded.)

Next-generation Apple device management for macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS. Request access.
Theo Valich, VR-Zone:
During our meetings with multiple vendors on the Computex Taipei, we were talking about pricing options for taking the Windows RT route instead of (free) Android from Google. While it was rumored that Microsoft decided to change their ways and offer a price of about 35 dollars – the reality is that Windows RT will cost staggering USD$80-95 dollars, with $85 being the most commonly quoted price.
I find this hard to believe. How could these tablets be price competitive with the iPad if it costs $85 for Windows alone?

WETHERSFIELD — There's a new zoning sheriff in town.
Monica Holloway, the town's new zoning enforcement officer, started work about three weeks ago, said Town Manager Jeff Bridges. Holloway's job is to enforce zoning and property maintenance rules, including anti-blight regulations.
"We're glad to have her," Bridges said. "We're already seeing the benefits of more attention being paid to those issues."
Bridges emphasized that Holloway would focus on education as well as enforcement. A major part of Holloway's job is to assure residents know the rules, he said.
"The goal is compliance, not punishment," Bridges said.
Retirements enabled the town to create the new position without increasing the number of employees, Bridges said. The building inspector had been in charge of zoning compliance, but that office is especially busy because of the high school reconstruction and the building of the new Capital Region Education Council magnet school, he said.
Town officials decided to shift funding to create a new, full-time zoning enforcement officer who also assures compliance with the property maintenance rules, Bridges said.
"It's a quality-of-life type of position," Planning and Economic Development Director Peter Gillespie said. "We've been reactive in terms of zoning enforcement and property maintenance for all these years. We believe there's a need to be a lot more proactive."
Holloway is a certified zoning enforcement officer, Gillespie said. She has served as a zoning enforcement officer in Berlin and Hamden. Most recently, she was employed in the New Haven planning office, he said.
Holloway has "hit the ground the running," Gillespie said.
In addition to her other duties, Holloway will advise and support the zoning board of appeals, he said.
Holloway could not be reached for comment Thursday. She will earn $56,000 a year, Bridges said.

The Tools Palette
The Tools palette is visible by default. To Show / Hide Tools, click the Tools button on the toolbar, or choose 'Window > Tools' from the main menu.
View the Tools Palette
The Tools palette consists of Selection tools (Select, Zoom & Pan), Graphics tools (Shapes, Paths & Curves, Edit Paths and Points, Text Box & Text On Path, Clip Art Stamp, and Style Dropper), and a Preview that displays the active style or clip art.
HINT: Drawing tools work with both fill and line styles. For example, the Irregular Polygon can appear as a filled shape when applying fill styles and a shape with an outline when applying line styles.
Sticky Tools
- By default, tools are "sticky" – the tool will remain active until you choose a different tool (active tool appears highlighted orange).
- Depending on the task at hand, having the tools revert immediately back to the Select [s] tool after each use may be preferred. Double-click on any tool to release tools from the sticky state (active tool will appear blue or graphite depending on your system 'appearance' setting). In the non-sticky state, click a tool to "turn it on" and use it once. Afterward, you'll revert back to the direct Select [s] tool.
To make non-sticky tools sticky again, double-click on the Select tool or any drawing tool.
