many, many christmases ago, i received a cassette tape from my nana called "it's christmas time, again." it featured four stories (two to a side); the first story starred talking squirrels discussing the meaning of christmas, the second one is about the origins of the hymn "o little town of bethlehem." i don't know the two stories on side b as well as the ones on side a, because, to listen to them, i would have to get out of bed and flip the tape and usually i was asleep by the time the squirrels were done discussing jesus' birthday. i don't know how old i was when i received this tape, but — cassettes were the popular audio medium and talking squirrels seemed plausible, so probably pretty young.
i still have the tape — in my tiniest ikea storage box of "sentimental items" — though i don't have any type of cassette player. not like that matters — i know all the squirrel dialogue by heart. the main thrust of the squirrel story is this: grandson squirrel is in his first winter in the forest and comes across a house with a christmas tree inside ("a tree inside the human's tree") and wants to know… "those lights and those shiny things… gramps, what is all this?" gramps explains that the people are celebrating a birthday and that, even though the person whose birthday it is is not there, that "they give gifts to each other to help keep the christmas spirit alive."
despite listening to this tape oh, one thousand times, christmas has always been too much about the gifts for me and not enough about the christmas spirit. when i was younger, naturally, it was about how many gifts, calling my best friend as soon as all the presents were unwrapped to compare gifts and finding homes in my bedroom for all my new things (always the curator, making sure my old things were set aside for donation). in the past decade, as i've become an adult in my own space and embraced minimalism as a lifestyle, christmas has still been about the gifts — that is, about not getting gifts and, when we inevitably got gifts anyways, the stress of it all in a small home.
over the years, i have tried all the tactics that fellow minimalists recommend — communicating with friends and family well in advance, asking for experiences over things, asking for consumables over things, asking for one big thing that many people can contribute to, gifting like you would like to be gifted, writing a blog about living in a small space — i mean, you can't get more to-the-point than that. last year, after spending all of november and december playing the minsgame and purging our home of over 650 excess things, we still received over 100 new things for christmas and our december birthdays. in my minsgame wrap-up post, i cited stockings as the biggest offender and swore off stockings for 2017, should our west coast move not pan out. first world problems, but it really was so frustrating to spend boxing day combing through new things and sorting them into garbage/donate/keep piles or holding up something you already owned and liked and knowing that, in order to keep something new and have your space still function, you would have to get rid of it. our space really was that small and, at the time, it felt like no one respected our wishes for no gifts. i got stomach cramps on christmas day and it wasn't from too much turkey.
well, here we are on the west coast and i don't know if it's the 4,000 km between us and the gift-givers or if it's the extra 377 square feet of living space or if it's just age/perspective, but i feel much more at peace with christmas this year — gifts or no gifts. meditating on the message of the squirrel story — that people give gifts to help keep the christmas spirit alive — i feel good about a couple of gifts this year, should they happen to be under the tree, but i also won't miss a beat if they're not. gifts aren't really what we do to help keep the christmas spirit alive (i'm looking forward to the light displays at the butchart gardens and watching a charlie brown christmas with frankie for the first time way more than i'm looking forward to opening presents), but i've accepted that gifts are the epitome of the christmas spirit for others and that to be a big grinch about gifts ruins christmas for them, just as much as getting a bunch of gifts ruins christmas for me.
i feel like i have spent nearly ten years struggling to arrive at this place, where the first christmas carols on the radio or the first gift guides arriving in the mail don't coincide with the beginnings of something that feels faintly like heartburn. if you're new to minimalism or in a mental space where christmas gifts stress you out, i'd encourage you to do all the things that are recommended widely — communicate with your family, value experiences over things, stress quality over quantity — and then get over it if you get a bunch of gifts anyways. focus on what keeps the meaning of christmas alive for you — chances are it's not gifts — and let others do as they will. if all else fails, you can always move to an opposite coast; that'll help manage the number of stocking stuffers, at least.

Short animated GIF-based video sequences seem to be spreading like wildfire around the web.
Media and news sites display short video segments, social apps allow their users to share animated GIFs with their friends, and while the dated animated GIF format is very useful for this purpose, it has one significant disadvantage - its huge file size.
Animated GIFs are not optimized for captured videos, resulting in large files, heavy bandwidth utilization, slow loading times, and sub-optimal user experience. Also, resizing and manipulating animated GIFs to match the graphic design of your site or app might be a lengthy, cpu-intensive process, as it consists of dozens or even hundreds of frames being manipulated individually.
Given that animated GIFs are now used mainly for short videos, why not reduce the size of animated GIFs by using modern video formats instead? All modern browsers support the HTML5 video tag and embedding short videos as MP4 or WebM would allow you to display the same animated content, while consuming less bandwidth, improving page load times and saving computing resources on your servers.
However, before you can embed animated GIFs as a modern video formats, you'll first need to convert all uploaded GIF files to video file formats. Not all browsers support all video formats - some support only the MP4 container format while others support the WebM container format instead. You'll need to selectively convert the animated GIFs to the appropriate format for the user's browser.
Cloudinary's cloud-based image management service takes care of these challenges - it performs automatic conversion from animated GIF to the MP4 and WebM formats to reduce size of animated GIFs, while supporting all modern browsers. Cloudinary also helps with dynamic resizing, cropping and manipulating these short videos to match your graphic design.
Conversion from animated GIF to MP4 and WebM videos
Cloudinary is a cloud-based image management service, which allows you to upload images to the cloud directly from the browser or mobile app. After a file is uploaded, you can access it using a dynamic URL, and Cloudinary can perform image manipulations on-the-fly, based on parameters you define in the URL (you can easily construct these dynamic URLs using our client libraries for all popular development frameworks).
Your users or staff can upload animated GIFs to Cloudinary, and then in the dynamic URL, you can set the
format to either
webm or
mp4 to automatically convert the original animated image to a modern video format.
For example, the following animated GIF was uploaded to Cloudinary and assigned the
kitten_fighting identifier.
This high quality GIF weighs 6.3MB, which is quite a lot, and takes time to download. If your site has many such large animated files, it will load slowly, which negatively affects user experience.
Setting the format to
mp4 dynamically converts the original GIF to the MP4 video format. The generated image is cached persistently and delivered via a CDN:
The automatically-generated MP4 video weighs 311KB, which is only 5% of the original GIF. This means that you save 95% of bandwidth and load time, while showing the same animation to your users.
Converting to the WebM video format can also be done by setting the format to
webm. The automatically-generated video shown below weighs only 467KB.
If you decide to display animation using video files, you might prefer to display a single frame with a play button; clicking the play button starts the actual video. Cloudinary can do this dynamically - the following image is a 150x100 thumbnail, with a semi-transparent overlay of a previously uploaded play button image. The thumbnail is converted to the JPG format and weighs only 5.6KB.
imageView.cldSetImage(cloudinary.createUrl().setTransformation(CLDTransformation() .setWidth(150).setHeight(100).setGravity("north").setCrop("fill").chain() .setOverlay("play_button").setWidth(0.4).setFlags("relative").setOpacity(60)).generate("kitten_fighting.jpg")!, cloudinary: cloudinary)
Resizing and cropping animated GIFs and converting to videos
Your users might upload photos and animations of various dimensions and aspect ratios. Most websites and mobile applications need to resize and crop user-uploaded content to match their graphic design. For example, you might want to create a uniform square thumbnail for all uploaded animations.
Cloudinary can resize and crop animated GIFs in the cloud using dynamic manipulation and delivery URLs. The following example creates a 150x150 centered cropped and resized thumbnail of the original animated GIF:
While this high quality animated GIF is optimized, it still weighs 2.5MB, which seems like an overkill for such a small animation.
Converting to WebM or MP4 videos creates much smaller files while maintaining the same visual quality of the animation. The following dynamic URL dynamically creates the same 150x150 cropped version of the animation, while converting to the MP4 video format, by setting the file extension to
mp4. The generated MP4 looks great, and weighs only 106KB, which means we reduced the file size by 96%.
HTML5 video tag with multiple MP4 and WebM sources
Not all browsers support all video formats, but most modern browsers support the HTML5 video tag, which allows you to specify multiple source types for the same video. This means that you can specify both the dynamic Cloudinary URL which converts the animation to MP4, and the alternative URL which converts it to WebM, so each browser can find a supported video format. Chrome supports both MP4 and WebM; Firefox fully supports only WebM, and Internet Explorer supports only MP4.
The following HTML snippet creates a 320x180 auto-play video tag. Both MP4 and WebM URLs are specified. In addition, the still-frame JPG poster is specified and an alternative HTML content linking to the original GIF is included.
<video width="320" height="180" autoplay loop muted="muted" poster="https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/kitten_fighting.jpg"> <source type="video/mp4" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/kitten_fighting.mp4"> <source type="video/webm" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/kitten_fighting.webm"> Your browser does not support HTML5 video tag. Click here to view original GIF </video>
Animated GIFs recently became a significant part of the media we see on the web. While it appears innocent to the regular user, the bandwidth involved in delivering these animations is significant, and major server resources are needed to resize and crop the animated files.
Converting uploaded animated GIF files to video files offers the same visual results, for considerably less bandwidth, making your site or app load faster, and your users happier. Cloudinary takes care of this process for you, in three steps: Cloudinary performs automatic cloud-based conversion to MP4 and WebM using dynamic URLs. Then it performs simple and fast resizing, cropping and other manipulations as needed, which are handled by our cloud service and do not consume your server resources. Finally, Cloudinary optimizes delivery of the resulting videos via fast CDN.
Another alternative to animated GIF is the Animated WebP format, which is supported by recent versions of the Chrome browser. In addition to MP4 and WebM, Cloudinary also supports automatic conversion to the WebP format, and can do this selectively for browsers that support WebP, while serving other formats to other browsers. For more details see our blog post about our support for Animated WebP.
Conversion of animated GIF to MP4 and WebM, as well as all further manipulations, are available in all Cloudinary plans, including the free plan. Please let us know if you have any feedback on this new feature or the rest of Cloudinary's animation and video conversion capabilities.

Our new assistant editors, Sarena Ulibarri and Laura Harvey, are -- dare I say -- frolicking in the slush. And I completely understand. I love reading query letter slush. I open the inbox and see not a coming storm, but a tidal wave of possibilities. What will catch my interest today? What will tick all of my boxes? What project will be just the thing I was hoping for? What project will intrigue me that I didn't even know I wanted?
Of course, the majority of what arrives in our submission inbox can't be kept. Either it's not right for us, the writing's not yet at a publishable point, the construction's almost-but-not-quite, or we just don't have space for it. All those projects that we have to decline do wear me down over time, which is why I'm quite happy that our open submission periods are only a month at a time. And three of the four shortest months of the year, as it turns out. (No, that wasn't the original reason for choosing those months, but it works nonetheless.)
Our rate of request to consider the manuscript is up from last year. Understandably so, as our assistant editors are seeking out what will be the base of their editorial lists. For them, possibilities are wide open. I am reading queries, but I'm not requesting pages this month as my own list is pretty full. Not requesting is furthering my sense of hibernation: I'm not venturing new paths through the snow, I'm curled up, snug and happy in my editorial nest . . . den . . . whatever.
It'll be intriguing, once the weather turns, to see what blooms from our collective efforts.

- SWEET SORROW Imogen (Stella Heath) bids farewell to husband, Posthumus (Thomas Gorrebeeck.)
There's an unwritten law in theater that says if you're going to mess with the text of a Shakespeare play, you'll get less blowback if you pick a play few people know.
Cymbeline, one of the playwright's last works, is rarely performed, despite the fact that it's one of his most complexly plotted, surprise-packed and satisfying plays, all of which made it very popular, once upon a time.
Modern critics tend to turn their noses up at it, as they do anything Shakespeare wrote for the sheer hell of it—which is exactly what Cymbeline feels like. As the Latin critique goes, Prolixior est unum rabidus fabula. Roughly translated: "This is one crazy play!"
Cymbeline, running outdoors through July at Marin Shakespeare Company, carries so many plot ideas reminiscent of Shakespeare's other plays that it often seems like a cross between self-parody and a career retrospective. There's a woman disguised as a boy, an aging ruler losing his kingdom and his sanity, a soldier convincing a married man his wife is unfaithful and a magic potion that makes the living appear dead.
Though the play is named for the recently remarried English king Cymbeline (Paul Abbott, in a performance as over-the-top as a circus tent), the true heroine is his daughter, Imogen, played with brilliant simplicity and sweetness by Stella Heath. Imogen has angered her father by refusing to marry the obnoxiously self-loving prince Cloten (a hilarious Thomas Gorrebeeck), marrying instead the lowly Roman orphan Leonatus Posthumus (also Gorrebeeck, apparently a quick-change artist).
Imogen becomes the target of her duplicitous stepmother, the queen (Lee Fitzpatrick) and also the subject of an egregious test of fidelity on the part of Posthumus. She ends up on the run, with Cloten in pursuit.
A pair of kidnapped princes raised as mountain men figure into the storyline, which packs enough twists, turns, mistaken identities and hairs-breadth reversals for three Shakespeare plays. Director Robert Currier makes the dangerous choice of rewriting certain bits of exposition, either introducing the info in original songs (yep, it's kind of a musical) or adding enough comical commentary to make the sometimes-dense prose crystal clear.
While I'd have preferred Currier to have solved these problems the way most directors do—by directing the play so that it makes sense—in this case, it kind of works. And, hey, since very few audience members will have seen Cymbeline before, it's likely no one will know the difference.
Rating (out of 5): ★★★★

There are several questions I get asked often. So, I thought as many other websites do, I would add a F.A.Q. page. The Frequently Asked Questions page will address many of the things that are often asked when starting out in screen printing.
I am currently working on putting it together and I expect to have it live in a few days. I will probably add to it too. I'm sure there will be more questions in the future that I will realize are being asked more than a few times. Please feel free to suggest questions for the F.A.Q. page.
I think this will help people find some quick and useful information on the website. I am always thinking about ways to make it easier to find the information you want quickly and that also may mean some restructuring as the site develops. I learn as I go as we do with many things.
Thanks for reading!

Hi everyone,
how to I script a recursive function to a sum column that uses itself and a neighboring column. I attached an example... Col 2 in this example would be the one that needs a recursive-type formula. Thank you for your help. Christa
You can get close, like this. The if statement in the formula deals with the lag(formulaCol) getting started without a cascade of missing values.

By TODD RICHMOND
Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. (AP) – A Wisconsin newspaper has the right to complete copies of a county's legal bills stemming from an investigation into a former sheriff deputy's conduct, a divided state Supreme Court ruled Tuesday in a victory for open record advocates.
The 4-3 decision reaffirms a provision in Wisconsin's open records law that makes government contractors' records public. The majority rejected arguments the bills were private because the law firm was technically working for the county's insurance company rather than the county itself.
"It's a huge win for the open records law," said April Rockstead Barker, an attorney representing the Wisconsin Freedom of Information Council, the Wisconsin Newspaper Association and the Wisconsin Broadcasters Association. The groups filed a brief with the Supreme Court supporting the newspaper. "Overall, it basically reaffirms the Wisconsin Supreme Court's commitment to transparency."
According to court documents, the case stems from the firing of Juneau County Sheriff's Lt. Jeremy Haske for having sex with a 17-year-old girl, mishandling what Haske thought was a sexual harassment case and failure to report an employee disabling her department phone. Haske fought the termination but lost.
The county's insurance company, Wisconsin County Mutual Insurance Corp., hired the Crivello Carlson law firm to defend the county against Haske's lawsuit. According to the Supreme Court opinion, county representatives consulted directly with the law firm.
The Star-Times filed an open records request in 2010 seeking copies of the law firm's bills. The insurance company, which paid all the bills, released copies to the newspaper through the county, but some information was blacked out.
The newspaper eventually sued to get the missing information. A circuit court judge found the open records law didn't apply to the bills because the county hadn't hired the insurance company to collect and maintain the invoices and the bills were confidential under attorney-client privilege.
The 4th District Court of Appeals, however, later concluded the bills were fair game under a provision of the open records law that states government contractor records are public. The county failed to prove the missing material qualified as privileged attorney-client information, that court added.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court agreed. Writing for the majority, Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson said the Legislature wanted the public to have as much information as possible about government affairs and finding for the county would set up situations where government bodies could evade the open records law by subcontracting out record creation and custody.
The county, insurance company and law firm all were connected contractually, she said. Since the invoices resulted from the county's insurance policy they're subject to the open records law, she said.
"To characterize the invoices as solely private records … is to turn a blind eye to the realities of the relationship between the County, the insurance company and the law firm in the present case," Abrahamson wrote.
The majority opinion stressed that nothing in the decision should be read as weakening attorney-client privilege. But Justice David Prosser warned in a stinging dissent that could very well happen.
"The majority appears to be sending a message that the confidentiality of legal invoices may be in jeopardy under the public reocrds law," Prosser wrote. "In the future, legal invoices related to an authority may be sanitized so that they provide insurers and public entity clients with no information except the hours worked and the amount owed as well as an invitation to discuss the details orally."
The newspaper's lead attorney, Christa Westerberg, praised the majority ruling.
"The fact you had an insurance firm in the mix doesn't make any difference. It's still the public's information," Westerberg said. "You have a triangle rather than a straight line between two parties, (but) it doesn't may any difference under the contractor provision."
The county's attorney, Bryan Kleinmaier, said an email he would be in meetings all day and wouldn't be available to comment.
Dana Brueck, spokeswoman for the Justice Department, which backed the county in the case, said only the agency would consider whether to offer guidance to the public on the decision's ramifications.

My super power
I see things other people don't…
and sometimes,
I capture the moment.
The Unicorn Trophy
Are you looking for new ways to brighten up your child's bedroom? Flowers, pictures and balloons just won't do it anymore? Well, how about adding the severed head of a unicorn? It's a guaranteed child pleaser!
Comes especially handy when you can't afford a pony.
I have been pumping that weight since before you were born
Does this qualify as fake advertisement? 😀
There is not much else I can add here. I wonder how long it would take to get that ripped with a weight like that.
(find product here)
The Double Sinner
The first sin is more conceptual. There is nothing wrong with the doll itself, my issue is with how little thought was put into it. According to packaging, the doll's name is Apple White and she is Snow White's daughter.
Riddle me this: How likely it is that Snow White would name her daughter after the very thing that almost killed her? That's the equivalent of naming your daughter Cyanide. Also, what kind of moron would name their child "Apple"?
from nameberry
Oh. Well, anyway…
Snow White was named SNOW WHITE because her skin was white as snow. APPLES ARE RED.
Well, the one that almost killed her was red. They are certainly not white.
There is also a typo on the back of the package, making "Apple White" into "Apple Whited". It's not an improvement.
This could happen
While most marketing materials regarding fire safety are satisfied with urging you to be cautious about throwing away burning cigarettes, this calendar goes the extra mile. Hell, maybe this happened after someone threw away a burning cigarette. Or perhaps the picture depicts a new super hero who just discovered his power. He is swatting at the camera to keep the eyewitness from filming. He has to safeguard his secret identity after all.
Conclusion: please be careful, never, ever to get incinerated, wherever you go.
What kind of bread is it?
If you are looking at this and have no idea what is wrong with it, don't worry! Think about the fact that major brands with a group of designers didn't get it right either. I'm saying "brands" because this is a common mistake. It's true! Keep an eye on it in the future, it will be worth it. Let me give you a hint!
Get it now? No? It's actually part of a game that I call "What does the Italian flag look like?"
Now, to their credit, they got the colors right. So there is that. Unfortunately, when it comes to flags, you can't just flip them around in whatever direction you want, in this case, upside-down. The first color should be green. If the first color is red, well, that's actually the Hungarian flag. Now, the bread on the second picture has the green on the left side. That's ok, because traditionally, the flag is a vertical tricolor. That's how it should look. Problem arises when it's depicted in a horizontal position, often mixing the red and green. I wrote a short poem in order to help people remember.
The Italian flag:
If the first color is red,
You fucked up.
I propose that they change "Italian" to "Hungarian", for the sole purpose of it being hilarious. Thank you!
My personal favorite
Ah, the legendary twenty-cent quarter. I wonder how many of these were printed before someone realized it was wrong. I thought that maybe it wasn't meant to represent actual currency, making it a more symbolic representation of money… except that they got the scale right. The dime is smaller than the nickle, just like logic dictates.
This concludes my short list of errors in the fabric of the Matrix. If I find new ones, you will be the first to know!
May your bacons remain crispy!

Biting my Tongue
Work today was hard. It's been hard for weeks. Months. But today I tried really hard to be an observer instead of sharing. And as hard as it is, it helps. It helped keep my blood pressure down. It helped me walk away less invested.
Moon Circle
Blessing. Nerve-wracking because it's new. But I can see the blessing coming.
Climbed into bed with a kitty on each side. Their warmth and my warmth made me relax from a difficult day and smile. They are simple.

Can anyone tell me why the LG3 3.8 in my 86 Century always runs smooth when it's cold outside and rough in warm weather? Today it's -12 F and the engine is running as smooth as can be, but in warm weather it always runs rough.
Can anyone tell me why the LG3 3.8 in my 86 Century always runs smooth when it's cold outside and rough in warm weather? Today it's -12 F and the engine is running as smooth as can be, but in warm weather it always runs rough.
Sensors that have cooper winding inside . Such as ignition coils , Iac , throttle position sensor , ignition control module , sometimes a coolant temp sensor could be off on temp readings of the actual engine dumping more or less fuel as it?s thinking cold or warm soon as it starts start up . That also affects open and closed loop . As the winding get hot they can malfunction and cause havoc on the engine idle . I?m sure I forgot a few sensors that have them as well . If yours has the magnavox ignition coil system I?d start there on ohm testing them.
If cold/hot starts are fine, and no fuel rich exhaust going out the exhaust pipe, this would rule out ECT replacement.
Difference between cold and hot weather is air density, with higher density via coldness. I don't remember LG3 3.8 electronic setup...but MAF and MAP sensors would be prime suspects. MAPs are cheap to replace...I'm not current on MAF pricing. Make sure intake hose from MAF to intake is not sucking outside air.
Does the engine fully warm up and TCC lock when cold? Because if it doesn?t fully warm up and stays unlocked when cold it could disguise a roughness problem that might really be there all the time. And staying unlocked when cold could simply be a bad thermostat.
Either coils can't take the heat (ignition issue) or something is affecting air/fuel ratio. What is needed is a OBD-1 real time reader, like dealerships used.
I'm not aware of O2 sensors causing this issue, but if its a single wire O2, these are cheap to replace.
Older vehicles I buy get O2 replaced, ECT replaced, FPR replaced, injector o-rings replaced, sparks/wires....normally, this eradicates potential issues.
BTW...error code exist? If running in open-loop, this could explain issue. Does TCC lockup?
Dont forget to check the Fuel Injectors themselves. They also have copper windings, and can have some de-lamination going on internally.

I sprayed the injector bases with throttle body cleaner last summer and there was no change in RPMs. Fuel pressure test was normal. I tried to see if I could replace the O2 sensor but even with the engine warmed up I could not budge it. I think I may have to bite the bullet and buy a new MAF.
Here's how one Bosch AMM (MAF) works:
"The sensor inside the air mass meter consists of a wire which is maintained at 250?F (120?C), above the ambient air temperature of the air entering the engine. As the air mass passing over the wire increases, more current is required to maintain the correct temperature. The amount of current required is used to calculate the air mass taken in."
Key Words - " above the ambient air temperature of the air entering the engine."
On this engine setup, there is a thermostat that mixes hot exhaust manifold air with outside air to maintain a set air temperature going into intake manifold.
Translation - If your incoming intake air temperature is off spec from OEM, then fix it. Since more current would be required with pure cold air, extra fuel would be added during open loop, and if O2 was not up to spec, there might be extra fuel in closed loop. Note - It depends upon how ECM was programmed to act.

Hopping Morgan (Statue of Liberty) by Oliver Magic
The five gimmicked coins in the Hopping Morgan set have always represented one of the biggest values in coin magic. This version includes a Morgan coin, a Statue of Liberty antique coin and three expanded shells. Dozens of tricks can be performed by using these coins separately or you can put them all together and do the mind-boggling Hopping routine.
Two coins are shown, a Morgan coin and a Statue of Liberty antique coin. One of the coins is dropped into your pocket and it immediately reappears back in your hand. The other coin is placed in your pocket and it also hops back. The effect is repeated again and finally, when the poor spectator is about to give up, you open your hand and to his astonishment, everything has vanished!
If you want to perform the whole routine in the demo (The initial two coins were taken out from a coin purse. Then the same routine as the above. Finally the vanishing coins reappear in the coin purse and can be handed over for examination.), you need to get additional

Even when you think that you are learning to live with the loss of your child, dates of special family-oriented events, birthdays, holidays, death dates, Mother's Day, Father's Day, school beginnings and endings may cause you additional pain and grief. It is a normal response to experience the recurrence of grief related feelings with the loss of a child. Such a loss is ongoing and significant. A trigger event might be something that is completely unexpected: hearing a child's laughter. When chronic loss is triggered, getting support is very important.
As you have probably already observed, the death of a child is a very uncomfortable subject for most people. It is unsettling when death is so out-of-order. It is also very frightening to provide empathy. After all, who would want to imagine the death of their own child? Friends and family often don't know what to say. Therefore, looking to those who have had the same experience may be useful and comforting. It is comforting to know that parents can again find meaning and purpose in life after the death of a child.

A content and citation analysis of accounting education manuscripts published in the Asian Review of Accounting: 1992 - 2007
Faux, Jeffrey (2008) A content and citation analysis of accounting education manuscripts published in the Asian Review of Accounting: 1992 - 2007. Asian Review of Accounting, 16 (3). pp. 263-279. ISSN 1321-7348Full text for this resource is not available from the Research Repository.
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse the accounting education manuscripts published in the Asian Review of Accounting from 1992 to 2007. Design/methodology/approach – Content and citation analyse techniques have been used to examine authorship, affiliation, educational themes and citation arrangements of manuscripts. Findings – Results indicate that whilst there is a predominance of authors and institutional affiliation to Australia, educational themes tend to focus on Asian issues. Originality/value – The regional nature of the Asian Review of Accounting and the lack of a dedicated accounting education journal in the region over the period provides valuable insight into the publishing patterns in accounting education and the regional interests of academics

Early Flu Symptoms: Common Warning Signs—and How to React
What is the first sign of the flu? Can you quickly pick out early flu symptoms — those first signs that crop up?
© Yulia Tarasova | Dreamstime.com
Every year, between 5 percent and 20 percent of the U.S. population contracts the influenza virus, tens of thousands are hospitalized, and thousands die from flu-related illness, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Therefore, it's critically important to recognize the first symptoms of flu—and seek medical attention quickly. Waiting for the flu "to pass" can be dangerous, especially in children, older adults, or adults with respiratory or immune-compromised conditions.
3 Early Flu Symptoms
So what is the first sign of the flu? While there are various symptoms that plague anyone with flu, three in particular strike early in adults:
- Fatigue. A sudden feeling of overwhelming fatigue may appear before other symptoms. While fatigue is also a symptom of the common cold, it is usually more severe with the flu.
- Scratchy or sore throat. In the earliest stages of the flu, your throat may feel irritated, scratchy, or sore. You'll notice this sensation more when trying to swallow foods or drinks.
- Muscle aches and joint pain. Body aches are also an early warning sign of the flu. Many flu sufferers describe the aches similar to the pain experienced following an intense workout.
Other Common Early Flu Symptoms
Aside from the three symptoms noted above, other early flu symptoms in both children and adults include:
- Fever
- Chills
- Headache
- Eye pain and/or watery eyes
- Warm, flushed, or red skin
- Coughing or chest discomfort (chest has a "full" feeling)
- Stuffy nose and/or sneezing
Uncommon Flu Symptoms
Stomach woes usually aren't part of a flu illness. But some people with flu symptoms do experience nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Such gastrointestinal issues are more common in children than adults (see sidebar).
Flu Symptoms in Children
The flu virus causes many of the same symptoms in children as it does in adults. However, children can have other flu symptoms that require immediate medical attention. Remember, children are more susceptible to suffer severe complications from flu. Seek emergency care immediately if your child has any of the following symptoms:
- Not drinking enough fluids
- Not eating
- Crying with no tears
- Unresponsive; not waking up
- Having a fever over 101 degrees or having a fever with a rash
- Difficulty urinating (or, in babies, having diapers that are less wet)
Serious Symptoms of the Flu
Progressing beyond early and common flu symptoms, let's consider those that should raise a red flag. If you're suffering from the flu and experience any of the following serious symptoms, seek immediate medical attention:
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath (could signal pneumonia or other flu complication)
- Pain or pressure in your chest or stomach
- Dizziness
- Confusion
- Severe vomiting
- Dehydration symptoms. Dehydration is a dangerous complication of the flu. To avoid dehydration, drink water, herbal teas, or broth. Children can drink water or Pedialyte.
Flu Treatment
If you or a loved one have one or more flu symptoms, contact your doctor as soon as possible. Tamiflu is the preferred treatment for the flu; however, Tamiflu is effective only within the first 48 hours of contracting the influenza virus. If you wait to go to the doctor, Tamiflu may no longer be an option for you.
Also note that extreme weakness and fatigue will likely interfere with normal activities. Anyone with influenza should limit activity and allow the body to rest. It's best to stay home, as venturing out to work or school causes the flu to spread to other people quickly. Plus, staying home and resting will strengthen your immune system, allowing your body to better fight the flu virus. (See also "How Long Does the Flu Last?")
Aside from taking Tamiflu, the best way to mitigate the effects of flu symptoms is to take measures to decrease the symptoms. For example, you can take over-the-counter pain medication such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) to fight fever as well as body aches and pains. You also can gargle with a mixture of warm water, salt, and baking soda to alleviate sore throat, or try drinking warm herbal teas.
For coughing, stuffy nose, or sneezing, over-the-counter medications and natural remedies such as Mullein supplements are available. (See also our post Acute Bronchitis: 7 Hacks for Relieving a Chest Cold.)
Lastly, try utilizing one or more natural flu remedies listed here. You can also try a product called Boiron Oscillococcinum, a homeopathic remedy that has been found to help alleviate flu-like symptoms. Another product, Sambucol Black Elderberry Cold & Flu Relief, has been found beneficial in naturally relieving both cold and flu symptoms.
Remember, the flu is nothing to take lightly! If you or a loved one is suffering from influenza, take actions immediately to reduce the intensity and duration of your symptoms.

First of all, if you flip that around, I doubt anybody wants to play the Hurricanes right now. The Canes are playing like a team, and their chemistry is counting in the W department. This is indeed a week facing 3 tough teams in Boston, Winnipeg, and Nashville, and I agree with one poster who said he would be happy coming out of that with 3 points. That said, the mindset should be 1 game at a time, 1 period at a time, 1 shift at a time. The two main differences the Canes have right now is their willingness to hit and their goaltending. Against Boston and Nashville, there should be two physical games, the type we would not have prevailed in over the past few seasons. I think Columbus may have the toughest go of it for 2 reasons: 1) A few new players to integrate into the locker room 2) 5 more road games than home to play. Pittsburgh is a little beat up. I like the Canes chances. I like our chances to stay in the 3 or move up to the 2 positions in the Metro. The Isles have faltered lately 2-4-1in their last 7.

Cops: Mom finds daughter bound to chair after burglary
Detectives are investigating an apparent home-invasion burglary in Islip after a woman called 911 Monday night to report she'd just returned home -- and found her 28-year-old daughter duct-taped to a chair, Suffolk County police said.
Police said the 28-year-old suffered minor injuries. It was not immediately clear if she was hospitalized.
Police said the home invasion occurred on North Ocean Avenue and said it was reported in a 911 call at 9:05 p.m., the caller reporting that on arrival at the home she "found her daughter bound with duct tape." Police said the woman told them her daughter had been bound to a chair about two hours earlier.
Police, citing the continuing investigation, declined to elaborate on the circumstances or say how many suspects were being sought.
Police also declined to say what, if anything, had been stolen.
Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to call Crime Stoppers at 800-220-TIPS or Third Squad detectives at 631-854-8352. All calls will remain confidential, police said.

Connecting state and local government leaders
The bureau plans to send out thousands of workers to verify addresses in the weeks ahead.
The first sizable field operation of the 2020 census is getting underway, with the U.S. Census Bureau planning to dispatch about 40,000 workers to help verify and update a master list of addresses the agency will use when it begins to actually conduct the population count.
This "address canvassing" process began earlier this month. It will continue to ramp up through the end of August and is set to conclude in October, according to the Census Bureau.
"We're still doing some hiring and we're still training in order to put the 40,000 on the ground," Marilyn Sanders, director of the bureau's Chicago regional office, said on Monday.
For this decennial census, the bureau says it's been able to verify about 65% of the 150 million addresses in its files using aerial imagery and information from the U.S. Postal Service and state, local and tribal governments, leaving about 50 million addresses to be checked.
That's in contrast to 2010 when the agency hired about 150,000 people to help validate all of the addresses on its list. "They walked around every city block, every country area," said Deirdre Dalpiaz Bishop, chief of the Census Bureau's Geography Division.
Census Bureau workers taking part in the address canvassing operation, known as listers, will carry government identification badges, as well as laptops and bags marked with census logos. They'll be knocking on doors and speaking to residents in targeted areas.
Listers' laptops will have software with maps and addresses they'll be working to confirm.
New construction can present a bit of a curveball for the address verification process.
But state and local governments can provide the Census Bureau with updated address information about new residential construction in progress between March of last year and next April through what's known as the New Construction Program.
City University of New York's Center for Urban Research noted last week that in some states and localities there are requests for proposals out, seeking organizations to assist with census outreach efforts, especially in communities that have historically been difficult to count.
The center has published an interactive map online that identifies areas that are expected to be hard to count. Those maps now show areas where address canvassing will take place. The Census Bureau also has a map highlighting where canvassing will occur.
Last month, the U.S. Government Accountability Office said innovations like allowing people to respond to the census survey online and using aerial imagery to check addresses could help to control costs, but are also relatively untested and could pose new risks.
Costs for the 2010 census totaled about $12.3 billion, according to GAO's report, while estimates for the upcoming count are in the $14.1 billion to $15.6 billion range.
The Trump administration sparked controversy and a raft of litigation related to the census when it moved last year to include a question about respondents' citizenship status on the survey.
But the U.S. Supreme Court in June rejected the administration's rationale for adding the question and Trump later backed down from his push to include it.
The once-a-decade headcount is important because it helps guide the distribution of billions of dollars in federal funding to communities around the country, as well as the congressional representation and Electoral College votes afforded to each state.

Former Reagan Administration White House Budget Director David Stockman says financial pain is a mathematical certainty. Stockman explains, "I think we are likely to have more of a fiscal bloodbath rather than fiscal stimulus. Unfortunately for Donald Trump, not only did the public vote the establishment out, they left on his doorstep the inheritance of 30 years of debt build-up and a fiscal policy that's been really reckless in the extreme. People would like to think he's the second coming of Ronald Reagan and we are going to have morning in America. Unfortunately, I don't think it looks that promising because Trump is inheriting a mess that pales into insignificance what we had to deal with in January of 1981 when I joined the Reagan White House as Budget Director."

February 22, 2017 - Deep State Isolating Trump from We the People -
Former CIA operative and military Intel officer, Robert David Steele, says there is no doubt President Trump is dealing with "treason in his own house." Steele explains, "Donald Trump's biggest worry right this minute is they are stripping away every single one of his loyal staff members and planting spies in the White House. Reince Priebus' highest mission in life is to keep Donald Trump from unrigging the system, while helping the neo-conservative and the extreme left two party establishment strip away all of Trump's options to the point that they drive Trump out of office, and Mike Pence is the go along, get along President that keeps the two-party tyranny in place."

February 15, 2017 - Definite Movement to Take Trump Out
- Trends forecaster Gerald Celente says the resignation of top security advisor Michael Flynn is further proof there is an ongoing "destabilization campaign" and a "definite movement to take out Trump." Celente explains, "When Trump came in, one of the first things he said in his campaign is let's stop this fighting with Russia, they're not the threat that everyone says they are. Since he's been saying that, he's been attacked. Let's go back to Michael Flynn. Trump and Flynn say the CIA has become too politicized. A lot of these agencies have been wasting money and giving us bad information. That was what a lot of Flynn was about. Let's not forget that Obama dumped Flynn because those were the things that Flynn was saying that Obama didn't want to hear."

February 12, 2017 - Trump Taking On Corruption & Lawlessness -
Investment advisor Catherine Austin Fitts says the oligarch, or establishment class, is on the attack. She calls this latest chapter in the Trump Administration "The Empire Strikes Back." Fitts explains, "Number one, Trump came into Washington with an agenda that would really make America great again: tax reform, regulatory relief, infrastructure and Obama Care. Immediately, he got bogged down in those for a variety of reasons. If you look at Congress's constituents, they can't make money solving those things, particularly if it helps regular people. So, immediately you bog down on those issues. He's trying to get his cabinet in place. In the meantime, you have the Empire worried about a variety of things. If you want to slow Donald Trump down or make sure the only thing he can get through Congress are things that are good for what I call the "piggies,". the first thing you do is take out their loyal lieutenants. You take them out and try to put space between him and his lieutenants."

February 8, 2017 - Fed Will Sacrifice Dollar to Prop Up Bonds
- Money manager Peter Schiff says the economy is not near as good as you have been told. A year ago, former Federal Reserve President Richard Fisher said the Fed "injected cocaine and heroin into the system" to basically prop it up. Is that kind of easy money policy going to continue? Schiff says, "Why would you expect a junkie to do anything else, especially when they haven't acknowledged the problem that they have. The fact that the Dow is at 20,000, that doesn't reflect a healthy economy. That reflects a bubble. The U.S. economy was not healthy in the late 1990's during the Tech Bubble. It didn't reflect economic health in 2007 when the financial crisis was right around the corner. It just reflects financial engineering and bubble blowing. U.S. stocks are very expensive. Either the U.S. stock market is going to crash or the dollar is going to crash. Either way, the real value of U.S. stocks is coming way down, and people shouldn't own them."

February 5, 2017 - -March Chaotic for Dollar & Bonds & 2017 Truth Bombs -
Internet data mining expert Clif High predicts 2017 will be a "deeply disturbing year." High explains, "2017 will be a deeply disturbing year because the faction that won in placing Trump in power also defeated the other faction, which has been on a roll ever since the McCarthy era. There has been push for centralization and a push for the control mechanism basically from Nazi infiltration into the United States at the end of WWII. Tens of thousands came in and infiltrated the infrastructure of the United States. So, we saw a push with the centralization of government, and if the Clinton faction had won, we would have seen a Hitler type of nexus where banking, political and military power would have been centrally joined. I think that everyone in the United States, at a core level, will be faced with an examination of what we think is true.

Bix Weir
February 1, 2017 - Trump Will Crash System then Rebuild
- According to precious metals and financial expert Bix Weir, what's going on in Washington now is simply a struggle for control between good and evil. Weir explains, "The left is going nuts. They say they are not violent, but they are causing all these riots and protests everywhere. I am convinced that this takedown of the bad guys is going to get a lot uglier. It will get uglier because the left leaning Obama people have been given so many rights that are not in the Constitution and are not anywhere in a capitalistic society. It's more towards socialism, and when you try to take away the rights given to socialists, they get armed. They go into the streets."

What's in store for RC aircraft in 2018? What trends do you think will be hot? Which will fade? Time to look into your crystal ball and tell us what you think!
16 CommentsAdd a Comment
I sincerely hope multi rotors fade into oblivion. They are a scourge on the hobby..
70mm & 80mm EDF jets powered by 6s batteries are striking a balance of performance, scale details, and affordability that are hard to resist! We will see a lot more of them.
Also, hoping for plug-n-play HD head-tracking FPV setup for fixed wing like DJI Mavic/Goggles. It's too good to be restricted to quad-rotors only.
It will either be killed by regulation, or because it is too small a market and manufacturers pull out.
Well, I'm hoping for more micro-scale type helos & fixed-wings. Call me a geek, but FPV & 3-D just don't do it for me.
B1 bomber with 4x 64mm ducted fans powered by 2x 6s batteries with functional sweep wings and bomb bay. Servoless retracts of course.
C17 with 4x 70mm fans would also be awesome.
I love everything Extreme flight RC and there new brands are building!! Legacy aviation is the scale company of the future! There turbo duster, bush master, and muscle coup are all big reliable electric 4s-6s planes that are float ready! Watch aces high for there new scale warbirds! All with EF's original quality and flight standards.
I'd like to see more larger-sized SAFE-type aircraft at reasonable prices. Planes like the Carbon-Z Cessna 150 from Horizon is a good start, but with more options in the level of completeness. Most of us have servos, motors, ESCs, receivers, etc. lying around from previous projects. The Cessna 150 price, at $400, is good, but still a major stretch for those of us on a limited/fixed budget.
Hopefully kits will make a come-back as will glow power
I hope JR will get back into the hobby business like the old days
cause Japan made products are by far the bes available.
Regrettably, the "Heavy" airliners and civil airplanes (i.e. Cessna 421) are fading in part due to lackluster interest, pricing and especially, cost for shipping; even used ones. But I enjoy them enough that I've invested in scratch build techniques, such as vacuum forming parts to preserve my current fleet and to create new ones. The latest Model Airplane News edition provided some very noteworthy tips! Thanks
RC aeromodeling's decline will continue. Why?
Because of the current "promotion" system. Clubs are non profit oriented as opposed to profit oriented industry members, who depend on clubs for hands-on promotion duties. Connect the dots.
In case anyone is interested, I do indeed have a proven means to a solution.
All I ask is for anyone in the industry to come to my area so that I can teach them how to easily attract and keep new customers, club and AMA members.
All I need or want is just ONE person to learn this proven promotion/training technique then she or he can pass this on to others and so on. What would anyone have to lose? No charge what-so-ever.
My guess is that no one is interested. Bought a MAN and found that it had very few pages. RC aeromodeling is hanging on by a thin tread and no one has any idea on how to save it.
I was a scratch builder for more than 30 years. Moving into a new home with less hobbyspace made me by ARF's for the first time… They are great models and are superior to my scratchbuilds due to using jigs. Fly IMAC and F3a mainly. So much less models in the .40 .50 e-class. Also far too many outdoor 'foamies'. They just do not fly like a balsa plane. Balsa planes are the best
