LLike the on-shore breeze blowing from the Purbeck coast, Marion Field is a force to be reckoned with; she knows what she wants and goes out to get it. Five years ago, as a full-time mother, she set herself the challenge of learning to make cheese from scratch, with just a textbook to help her. Now with an impressive number of awards under her belt, Marion is the power behind The Windswept Cow Cheese Company, and the only commercial cheesemaker on the Isle of Purbeck.
I arrange to meet Marion at the 600-acre farm in Worth Matravers, where she lives with husband Robert and teenage daughter. As I drive across the county the reason for the company name becomes clear. The wide-open spaces and dramatic knife-edge cliffs offer no shelter from the elements. The cows here are indeed windswept!
Marions enthusiasm is infectious. Within minutes of meeting her I am already considering making cheese myself, though it would be hard to match Marions incredible talent. She is the producer of the superb Windswept Cow Original fresh cheese, and the much-lauded St Aldhelm Blue, named after the clifftop Norman chapel where Marion and Roberts daughter was christened.
Marion is German by birth and grew up in the wine-producing region of Pfalz. I have always lived in the countryside, and always wanted to be a farmer, she says. Marion embarked on a four-year agricultural degree in Germany, during which she came to England primarily to look at alpacas. Cirencester Agricultural College helped her find a job on a large dairy farm in Buckinghamshire. I had to milk over 100 cows by myself! The upshot of the job was that she met and married Robert, who was training to be a farm manager.
With her characteristic drive, Marion returned to Germany to complete her studies, before coming back to the UK to do a masters degree in Animal and Forage Science at Reading University. The couple moved to the Dorset farm in 1993, when Robert was offered a job as dairy herdsman. Four years later he was promoted to farm manager and is now responsible for a herd of 120-140 Holsteins and Scandinavian Reds.
It was really hard to find work round here, especially with my qualifications. So I started to look for something challenging that I could do from home. More importantly, she was keen to make something special from the cows on the farm. Their milk goes into an 8,000-litre tank but we dont know where it goes or who drinks it, she says. I wanted to give the milk an identity.
Armed with a German textbook, Marion began by making Weisskse, small semi-soft cheeses without a rind. Offering me a taste, Marion tells me how she took the first batch of 30 to Wimborne farmers market, and by noon she had sold the lot. I was over the moon! she laughs. I can well understand her success. The cheese has a clean, fresh citrus flavour and a deliciously moist creamy texture. Encouraged, Marion upped her output and started to supply local shops and more farmers markets.
Her next step was to take a professional cheesemaking course at the School of Artisan Food in Nottingham. Here she learned to make blue cheese and subsequently went on to create her next winning cheese St Aldhelm Blue. I wanted to make a cheese with some blue in it, rather than an actual blue cheese, she explains, cutting open a truckle to check on progress. This is still a bit chalky in places, she says. To me it looks and smells irresistible. The aroma is enticingly yeasty, redolent of grass and mushrooms, and there is just enough blue to give the flavour some zing. Its hard to stop nibbling the morsels that are offered.
At first Marion made cheese in her farmhouse kitchen: I could only make eight or nine at a time, she explains. I had to go flat-out all week just to make 30. After two years the operation moved across the yard to a barn, part of which was converted to the spotless dairy in which Marion now works.
Pride of place goes to the gleaming stainless steel vat in which the milk is heated and stirred until it coagulates. Marion does not do things by halves; the vat was custom-made to suit her particular requirements, as was the super-sharp multi-bladed cheese cutter, the draining tables and the 500-litre collection tank parked in the yard. Its just as expensive to buy ready-made equipment, she explains, so I thought I might as well have things made exactly as I want them.
Marion also gets exactly what she wants when it comes to milking the herd. The milk for her cheese comes directly from 20-30 selected cows rather than from the bulk collection tank. That way I know the milk is coming from the best of the herd, she explains. Their milk is high-fat, high-protein, and their udder health is excellent.
The milk goes straight from the milking parlour to the dairy, so cheese can be made while the milk is still warm. The farm is completely TB-free so there is no need for pasteurisation. That would add another nightmare two hours to the day, says Marion. And in any case, cheese made with non-pasteurised milk has a much better flavour. Another feature is that she uses only vegetarian rennet, enabling her to expand her market to include vegetarians.
I ask her if there are other cheeses in the pipeline. In my head, she laughs. Im struggling to keep up with demand as it is. She goes on to stress the importance of keeping a balance between her work, family and other commitments. That said, she still manages to find time to host an annual visit from 40 London-based A-level geography students, and give the occasional after-dinner speech at a local business club. It remains to be seen whether or not she takes the next step of increasing her output and taking on staff. Meanwhile, her enjoyment of what she does is obvious. My cheeses are all loved! she says.
Marions cheeses can be bought direct from the farm:

Marions cheeses deserve pride of place on the cheeseboard, and are equally delicious in cooked dishes. St Aldhelm Blue can be crumbled into a bchamel sauce, while the lemony, semi-soft Windswept Cow Original is perfect for cheesecake or heart-shaped coeur la crme. Alternatively, combine both cheeses in this pt recipe.
Windswept Cheese Pt with Celery and Walnuts
This richly flavoured creamy pt will hit the spot with cheese lovers. Portions are small a little goes a long way. The pt can also be used to anoint grilled steaks; it melts into a rich and tangy sauce. Its good with pasta, too, or swirled into soup.
Serves 4-6 as a starter
200g St Aldhelm Blue cheese, diced
175g Windswept Cow Original fresh cheese
2 tbsp single cream, preferably organic
2 tbsp full-bodied white wine or dry sherry
40g freshly shelled walnuts, coarsely chopped
4 tbsp finely diced tender celery stalks (from the centre of the head)
2 tbsp chopped celery leaves (from the centre of the head)
2 tbsp snipped chives
2 large pinches freshly grated nutmeg
Freshly ground white pepper
Sea salt flakes
To garnish:
Walnut quarters
Tiny sprigs of celery leaves
Put the two cheeses in a food processor with the cream and wine, and pulse a few times until smooth. Tip the mixture into a bowl and mix in the walnuts, celery, celery leaves, chives and nutmeg. Season with a generous grinding of white pepper and some crumbled sea salt flakes. Spoon the mixture into small ramekins, cover and chill for 2 hours or more. Garnish each ramekin with a walnut quarter, a tiny sprig of celery leaf, and serve with hot toasted sourdough or ciabatta.

A Simple Trick for Styling Roses~
There's nothing like fresh flowers to bring a dose of sunshine into a space.
And as much as I love having fresh flowers, we all know they can be expensive. Especially roses.
But I'm gonna let you in on my little secret for how to have expensive-looking roses on a shoestring.
Are you ready?
It's called the grocery store!
No, seriously.
You can usually find small bouquets of roses at the grocery store for very little money. (My local Walmart usually sells small bouquets for $5).
The key word here is SMALL bouquets.
So how can a small, grocery store bouquet of roses look full and lush?
I'm going to share my little trick with you today.
Okay, I actually learned this trick from Matthew Mead a few years ago when I helped him with a photo shoot. And you're not going to believe how easy it is!
Most of the time, when you purchase roses...the buds are closed tight. The key to making an arrangement look full is to help the buds open a bit.
To help them open, start with the outer layer of petals, and gently lift them away from the next layer. Do not pull them, but rather push them out from inside. Make sure not to use too much pressure because you don't want to accidentally rip petals off. Then repeat this between each row of petals all the way to the center of the bud. That's it! Your roses will look fuller and more lush.
|Here I am working on some roses. Photo courtesy of Matthew Mead.
The next trick is to cut the stems fairly short and place them in a shorter vase. In the photos above, I used silver julep cups. They are perfect for holding a small bouquet which averages about five blooms.
Next time you're at the grocery store, grab yourself a little bouquet! It'll brighten your day.

Lugano/Amsterdam, 28 February 2013 -- A range of new and promising targeted drugs currently under development for improved cancer therapy will be presented during the 11th International Congress on Targeted Anticancer Therapies, Paris, 4-6 March 2013 (TAT 2013). The event, which is organised by NDDO Education Foundation, is an ESMO Partnership Meeting, co-sponsored by the U.S. National Cancer Institute.
Over 500 oncologists and scientists from all over the world will review and discuss cancer therapies of the future. Among them, many top academic experts involved in the early-phase clinical development of new targeted therapeutics and molecular cancer diagnostics, the cornerstones of personalised cancer therapy .
Personalised cancer medicine: targets and therapeutics
The development of new targeted cancer therapies is one of the main drivers for the further evolution of personalized cancer medicine. The concept of personalized medicine is based upon the notion that cancer development and progression are driven by genomic abnormalities and that these abnormalities are different not only between different types of cancer, but also between individual patients. Such findings have opened the door to the development of targeted cancer therapeutics, directed against tumour-specific molecular abnormalities.
At TAT 2013, over 50 plenary lectures and 70 posters will address dozens of emerging targeted agents and new drug targets under development for cancer therapy. In particular targets and experimental therapeutics in the early stages of clinical and the late stages of preclinical development will be addressed.

YouTube sensation Michael Kittrell has a new reality show premiering on the Reelz Channel in January 2014 and his family is already stirring the pot slamming "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star Alana Thompson. The show titled "Hollywood Hillbillies" follows Kittrell and his family as they make the move out of Georgia to Hollywood, has already been compared to the TLC program.
RELATED: 'Hollywood Hillbillies': 'Gingers Have Souls' YouTube Kid Michael Kittrell Gets Reality Show That Takes His Georgia Family To LA [PHOTOS AND VIDEO]
The cast was presented at the TCA panel in Hollywood and Dee Dee Peters, Michael's sister, took a jab at Honey Boo Boo saying she should be 'spanked' for her bad behavior and adding, "She's terrible. If I would be acting like that, we would have been buried in the backyard."
Michael found fame after his "Gingers Do Have Souls" video became a viral sensation. It has since racked up over 34 million views since it was uploaded on the video sharing site back in January 2010. The inevitable similarities between both shows following a Southern family are going to be there, but will the public respond well to the new show?
"Honey Boo Boo" already has captivated the public on television and her show is broadcasted on the TLC channel that has an established audience. On the contrary, the show starring "Angry Ginger" will be aired on Reelz, which doesn't have the same reach. It will be interesting to see if his subscribers from his YouTube channel migrated to watch his antics on television now.
Do you think "Hollywood Hillbillies" will be a hit on television?

Close your eyes for a second (and yet, continue reading!)
Take a few deep breaths and centre yourself
Get back in touch with the very heart of you
Do you feel the strings that bind you?
Do you feel the heavy loads you carry around?
All the things you do only because you think you have to
All the people you stick around with because of duty
All the demands
All the rules
Can you feel the weight of it all?
IS it any wonder that life feels stuck?
What if you started cutting the strings?
Considering each one and deciding whether it supported and empowered you
Or whether it just tied you down?
And then breaking free of all that shackle you
Refusing to care any longer what anyone thought
But instead, making your happiness a priority…
What could happen to you then?
You long for freedom
Are you actually willing to take it?
Or do you immediately shut down and tell yourself that you cannot be that selfish, greedy, weak…
But whose conditioning are you responding to, my honey?
Because you surely agree that freedom is your divine right
So why then do you agree to stay in bondage?
Without really paying attention to who or what you are in bondage to?
Snap, snap, snap…
Snap the chains that bind you…
Snap, snap, SNAP
Be your own person again…
Dare to trust your intuition…
Dare to trust that any discomfort you have been feeling is leading you to the pathway of freedom
Forget the rules
Start afresh
Forget what a static book said
Go for the living, dynamic connection
I know it is scary to consider that you do not need some words to tell you how to live but seriously, would your connection cease without the static book?
And if yes, is it real?
Consider what you are believing
Question what you are believing
Dare to trust yourself again
Everything about life in this current day and age, seems to want you to leave behind your own internal knowing…
Will you return to that knowing?
Will you trust that Source can communicate directly with you?
Will you dare to be free enough to listen in and act upon what you hear?
I see you free, feeling so light as you snap off the chains that bind you…
Flying forward free of the burdens of the past
Sprinting from glory to glory as you realise that you always knew there was a freer way to live
Come on!
It is time to be ALL OF YOU!
To break the chains that shackle you to a life you do not wake up happy to…
It is time to bask in freedom, love, happiness, abundance…
It is time to seek true fulfilment as you dare to leave behind things that promised to fulfil you but actually left you hungry for the real deal.
No more trying to tame yourself
No more trying to fit into the lines that others have defined for you
No more lying to yourself about being happy in a life that stifles and keeps you down
Allow yourself to thrive
Allow yourself to admit that you are not happy with the status quo and in admitting it, you can then start to find a new way…
There is always a way
And it probably is less scary than you think
Snap. Snap. SNAP
Break those chains, honey!
Affirm it with me
I am free
I AM free
I am FREE
Imagine it
See it
Feel it
Choose it!
Now, before you go, pop over to watch THE ABUNDANT LIFE: 3 Key Steps To Handle Limiting Beliefs, Clear Past Trauma & Create A Free, Fulfilled, Financially Abundant & Love-Drenched Life.

This is part three of a series about encrypted file storage/archive systems. My plan is to try out duplicity, git using transparent encryption, s3-based storage systems, git-annex and encfs+sshfs as alternatives to Dropbox/Wuala/Spideroak. The conclusion will be a blog post containing a comparison a.k.a. "executive summary" of my findings. Stay tuned.
git was originally written by Linus Torvalds as SCM tool for the Linux Kernel. It's decentralized approach fits well into online OSS projects, it slowly got the decentralized OSS of choice for many. Various dedicated hosted storage services as github or bitbucket arose. In this post I'll look into using git as replacement for Dropbox for data sharing. As Dropbox has a devastating security history (link needed) I'll look into ways of transparently encrypting remote git repositories.
Unencrypted Git
If you're a software developer you might already know git's basic operations. If not look at this introduction. Git is a decentralized version control system: this makes it inherently multi-user. In addition remote servers are mostly treaded as dumb storage dumps without active logic which would fit perfectly our needs.
But what for non tech-savvy users? Fortunately there's SparkleShare. This user interface works like Dropbox but with a git back-end. I really like that it is using a git repository, through that it doesn't matter if you trust SparkleShare's quality: in the end all data is stored within a trusted (safety-wise) git repository. SparkleShare uses an external notification server for notifying the different clients about changed files, really paranoid should create their own notification servers.
Server-wise there are plenty of hosed storage providers like github or bitbucket. Self-hosted solutions range from basic setups over SSH to full-blown github clones like gitlab (including access control, etc.). An advanced feature that I've come to love is server-side editing through a HTML editor (similar functionality is provided by githab/bitbucket/gitlab).
Data transfer can be utilized through various protocols, most commonly SSH or HTTPS are used. This provides for secure transport but alas server-side storage is unencrypted.
Adding encryption through SparkleShare
SparkleShare provides easy server-side encryption by just adding "-crypto" to a repository's name. To create a new repository and access it through SSH do the following on the server (I assume that you've copied you SSH public keys to the storage server):
and check it out through SparkleShare:
After entering the repository data Sparkleshare asks for an encryption password. To test it, we're gonna check out the repository through 'normal' git and output one of the stored files:
Encryption looks good (but see that the filename was not encrypted). But how was it done?
Data is passed to the
clean filter before check-ins/check-outs (this is achieved through the filter statement in
.git/info/attributes). This filter in turn use the Password from .git/password to encrypt the user data. What's bad about it? First of all there's no key change mechanism: you cannot easily change the encryption password for the repository. Second the password is saved on each SparkleShare client as plain-text and can easily be read by everyone. At least this uses CBC as block cipher, this is a secure default. Fourth and biggest problem is that the filename is not encrypted at all. This means that an attacker can easily see what files you have stored.
on the command line: git-encrypt / git-crypt
There are various projects that use git's filter in a similar fashion to SparkleShare. The two that I found most frequently were git-encrypt and git-crypt.
Let's start with git-encrypt: this tool has all the problems of SparkleShare. In addition it uses ECB as cipher mode. This means that the resulting encrypted files are not as useless (without the secret key) as you might hope you would be. Especially for bitmap images this might mean that the encryption is mostly meaningless. You can change the default through the configuration file but I prefer tools with better defaults.
In steps git-crypt. This uses CTR mode as block cipher (with an IV derived from the SHA1 mac of the source file). This produces secure encrypted files (as well as works with git) and should also be parallelizeable on a multi-core/CPU system. The filename is still unencrypted through, also the password can be found in plain-text on the Client's computer. You cannot easily exchange the encryption password.
on the command line: encrypting with GPG
I also found an article that utilized public-key encryption through gpg for encryption.
This means that the
.git/config entries would look like:
With this the secret password (to the gpg key) is not stored in plain text. Encryption does not depend upon knowledge of the password, for decryption it must be passed on to gpg (through gpg-agent for example). Alas this should be slower than using plain symmetric encryption (as with openSSL) and the filenames are still stored unencrypted.

Christian Manuscripts of the Mingana Collection
As well as the Arabic Islamic and Persian manuscripts, the Mingana Collection contains Christian Arabic and Syriac manuscripts. Other languages include Karshuni (Arabic writing in the Syriac characters), Ethiopic, Georgian, Hebrew, Samaritan, Sanskrit and Armenian.
The value of the collection to scholarship is enormous: the Syriac section with its 662 manuscripts rates third in the West after the British Library and the Vatican Library; the Christian Arabic section is surpassed in the West only by the Vatican Library and the Bibliotheque Nationale of Paris.
The Syriac and Karshuni Christian manuscripts include church documents, gospels, works on liturgy, and lives of saints and homilies. Amongst the earliest items in this part of the Mingana Collection are a number of important fragments originating from St Catherine's Monastery, Sinai.
The 270 Arabic Christian manuscripts include a fragment of the oldest known text of the Acta Thomae, and a very early copy of the Arabic translation of some works by St Ephrem.

The History department engages students in expeditions and case studies that support students developing an in-depth knowledge of history while also applying their knowledge to current events. Students act as historians and researchers, writing PBATs and presenting their work to an authentic audience.
The English Department stresses reading, writing, and listening. Students read texts for meaning, make connections between texts, and explore how texts relate to their lives and the world around them. The English Department supports all students in becoming lifelong readers, and teaches students not only how to write analytical essays, but to write across multiple genres and speak confidently about literature.
English Department Highlight
Last year, as part of EL Education selected 18 exceptional Better World Projects from 50 submissions by student-teacher teams across the country. From documenting the lives of immigrants in their communities, to initiating courageous conversations with city council members about police violence, these projects became shining examples of what can happen when student learning serves a larger purpose. See our students' incredible project here.
Instead of having students simply memorize procedures, the Math Department challenges students to grapple with non-routine problems and creatively apply the mathematics they have learned to complete interesting projects. Through collaboration and dialogue, students construct an understanding of mathematics and recognize that it is a powerful tool. Our challenging curriculum moves from algebra through calculus.
The science department engages students in hands-on laboratory work and fieldwork where students can learn the techniques and approaches that real scientists use through experimentation. Course offering reflect that diversity of disciplines in the natural, biological, and physical sciences.
Students will have the opportunity to choose from several elective courses of their choice, many of which will offer credits towards their high school graduation. We also offer AP Human Geography, AP Environmental Science, AP US History, and AP Calculus.
Fall 2018 electives include:
- Photography
- Dance
- Robotics
- Weight Training
- Poetry
- Screen Printing
- Computer Science
- Theater

|The Effect of Interference Cancellation on Spectrum-Sharing Transmission Capacity
|Authors :
|Jemin Lee, Jeffrey G. Andrews, and Daesik Hong
|Conference :
|Abstract :
|The efficiency of spectrum sharing can be improved by interference suppression and/or cancellation. This paper analyzes the performance of spectrum sharing networks with interference cancellation (IC) based on the spectrum-sharing transmission capacity (S-TC), defined as the number of successful transmissions per unit area while guaranteeing all target outage probabilities of spectrum-sharing systems. The effectiveness of IC can be characterized by the coefficient of cancellation (CoC) and a specific CoC for strong interferer cancellation (S-IC) method is derived. It is verified that the performance of S-IC is affected solely by system parameters of its own system and the S-TC region can increase in various forms depending on CoCs, which should be considered in analysis of spectrum-sharing efficiency.

BAYOU CORNE — The 24-acre Assumption Parish sinkhole underwent a periodic burp early Friday, the second in two days and the fourth in the past 2 1/2 weeks, parish officials said.
The most recent burp was accompanied by an increase in tremors early Friday, along with other effects often connected with burps, including water movement and so-called "rain drop" bubbles on the lake-like hole's surface indicating a gas release.
John Boudreaux, director of the parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness, said the tremors began to ease by Friday afternoon as they typically do once a burp event has eased.

Tomorrow we are heading for the, dare I say, world's biggest flea market. The Braderie de Lille in the little town of Lille welcomes over a million visitors every year to 48 hours of Moules Fritt (mussels and french fries) and treasure hunting on the streets of Lille. So far it looks like the weather should be dry with moderate temperatures.
Which is good news because the tradition is to dump the mussel shells on the road during the Braderie to see which restaurant can get the biggest pile. The thought of walking around the streets in high temperatures past piles of steaming stinky mussels shells makes even a hard-core thrifter like me wonder if H&M wouldn't be a better choice.
The market opens at 2pm on Saturday and runs (non-stop?) until 11pm Sunday night. Because the vendors are on the street they recommend that you bring a flashlight for night shopping – because I suspect that is when you get the best deals and hopefully a little less competition.
So the headlamps are packed, tote bags tucked and small bills made ready for some advanced negotiating. Let's hope that my school french is up to the task Combien? and Quel prix? are the only words I can muster now and with my luck the little German I have learned will hop out at the worst possible moment. Or I could use the phrase that has proved useful at the German flea markets Cuánto cuesta?

The next fifty years in this country (the UK), and the U.S. — the West in general especially really — is going to be very interesting for society; for the Church. Mainly for the Church. Society is going through a major shift, almost on a global scale. A great divide is coming and will hit the Church over issues of sexuality and marriage. More so than it might already seem.
Only one side will come out of it as the dominant "winner". The other, to reside in obscurity in the annals of embarrassing history. Everything is being done under the guise of "love" — almost as if to try and shame the Church into looking as though it's not being or preaching "LOVE" as it's meant to. But it's not love, not truly, it's hedonism with a 'love-mask'.
It is lust and desire renamed as "love". The only way the world will be put right is if the Church truly lives out and demonstrates TRUE LOVE. Not fairytale Disney "true love" but real, actual, LOVE.
No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends. John 15:13
The Church needs to step up, stop squabbling, and demonstrate true love.
By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. John 13:35
Stop worrying about how The World acts and lives, and manage your own house.
For what have I to do with judging those outside? Is it not those who are inside that you are to judge? 1 Cor 5:12
Act in love towards one another and let that bleed out INTO the World. Let them know us by our love and watch them come.
God's house will stand in spite of us.

They're simple, they're classic, and they go with everything. These guilt-free chicken dunkers are kind of like a really great pair of shoes... that you can eat. Mmmmm!
The quintessential Chinese takeout swap. Why snarf down a ginormous container of oily, carby noodles when you could fill up on our tasty and WAY trimmed down version? We see no reason.
You may never look at breaded foods the same way again after you try our fiber-fried, cheese-smothered, saucy Chicken Parm swap. Serve it with a side of creamy Fettuccine Hungry Girlfredo and a salad, and you won't even miss your local Italian eatery.
That's right, people. We took Cap'n Crunch cereal, crushed it up, and rolled chicken in it. Thanks for the bright idea, Planet Hollywood. This swap is SWEET!
In another installment of "Rolling Chicken in Crazy Stuff," we made an extremely delicious hot wing replacement using lean chicken breast, hot sauce, and... barbeque-flavored potato chips! BTW, Popchips ROCK in this recipe!
Long day at work? Here's your dinner recipe. It has only three ingredients and is insanely easy to make, AND you get to take out your aggression by pounding a piece of chicken flat. Food + stress relief = HOORAY!
We won't lie... We were a little skeptical about canned chicken before we tried it out in this recipe. Now we're obsessed with the stuff and it has to battle the tuna pouches for shelf space in our pantry. Food fight!
Ignore all those fatty pre-made chicken salads out there! Not only is this one INSANELY low in fat and calories, it's also AMAZINGLY delicious. And, might we add, it's BEAUTIFUL. Chopped cucumbers, sliced grapes, and little apple bits? GORGEOUS!

On Tuesday morning, witnesses to a ceremony at the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine were encouraged to wear long sleeves, long pants and socks. The subjects of this holy event were about 15,000 honeybees that live on the church's campus in Morningside Heights.
This year's unusually busy swarm season in New York City has attracted some unwanted attention to the hardworking insect, but Tuesday's event provided it with some good publicity.
Moments before the Right Rev. Mark S. Sisk, the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New York, began the brief ceremony, puffs of pine smoke wafted through the air to sedate the bees.
The bishop opened his red leather Bible and recited a prayer he had written for the occasion:
As we gather to bless these bees, your own well-blest creatures, may the intensity of their self-offering lives awaken in us a reminder of the fruitfulness that such self-offering promises to yield in our own human community. May their vulnerability remind us both of our duty to them and of the vulnerability that touches all things. May the sweetness of their honey remind us of the sweetness of your love for them, for us, for all people, and of the bending infinity of Creation itself.
And with a wave of some freshly picked leaves dipped in holy water and a sign of the cross, Bishop Sisk blessed the hive that took up residence on the grounds last month.
Holding forward a tray of the bees during the ritual was a beekeeper named Nicole Toutounji, who, with the assistance of the group NYCBeekeeping.org, will tend to the bees she hopes will pollinate the plants and trees in Morningside Park and the biblical garden.
"It's the perfect exchange of the bees and the divine," Ms. Toutounji said.

Will Rudy Gay Emerge as a "Healthy" Tracy McGrady Next Season?June 15, 2009
When you take a look at Rudy Gay, he reminds any typical NBA fan of a Tracy McGrady-type of player.
He can shoot the ball, attack the basket, slam it down with the best of them, play above average defense, and, of course, knock down the clutch shot in tight situations.
Standing the exact same height and weight of T-Mac, does Rudy Gay really have it in him to become a superstar (minus McGrady's career injuries for a second) and form into a Tracy McGrady-type of athlete?
Before I give my response to the question, let's just say that we all admit that IF, and only IF, T-Mac was able to remain healthy for the majority of his 12-year career thus far, he would certainly be up there with the LeBron James' and Dwyane Wades' as one of the best overall players in the game today.
Since injuries are a part of every sport, you cannot really use it as an excuse for poor, old Knee-mac.
Now, on to Mr. Gay.
When viewing McGrady's career, he really did not emerge as the T-Mac we all know during his first three seasons in the league.
Teaming up with his cousin Vince Carter, McGrady averaged a career high 15.4 PPG and 6.3 RPG in his third year, but the next season would change whatever anybody knew about the young McGrady.
In T-Mac's fourth season in the NBA, he sky-rocketed for 26.8 PPG, 7.5 RPG, 4.6 APG, 1.5 SPG, and 1.5 BPG in 77 games played.
After that, Tracy McGrady captured the nick-name T-Mac and literally took lift-off into NBA stardom.
In Gay's first three seasons in the NBA, he had already averaged a career-high 20.1 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 2.0 APG, 1.4 SPG, and 1.0 BPG during his sophomore campaign.
Since Gay will be going into his fourth season in the league, I expect him to jump to new heights in regards to the NBA world.
Gay's talent is virtually unlimited, and along with his caliber and leadership, he makes himself stand out as one of the biggest targets in the league to breakout into NBA stardom (just like T-Mac did).
So, to answer the impudent question, it is definite that Rudy Gay has the arsenal to blow up onto the superstar scene and become one of the most dangerous players in the game today.
With a young and upcoming Memphis Grizzlies squad, Gay will gain the experience and realization of what it is like;y to form into an NBA superstar.
Watch out for Gay next season, for all I know, you will be wearing his No. 22 jersey in no time.

Henry McKelvey Blodget (born 1966) is an American businessman, investor and journalist. Blodget currently lives in Brooklyn.
He is a former equity research analyst who was senior Internet analyst for CIBC Oppenheimer and the head of the global Internet research team at Merrill Lynch during the dot-com era.[1] Due to his violations of securities laws and subsequent civil trial conviction, Blodget is permanently banned from involvement in the securities industry.[2] Blodget is the CEO of Business Insider.[3]
Early life
Blodget was born and raised on Manhattan's Upper East Side, the son of a commercial banker. He attended Phillips Exeter Academy and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in History from Yale University, where he was a member of The Society of Orpheus and Bacchus. After college, he taught English in Japan, then moved to San Francisco to try to be a writer while supporting himself by giving tennis lessons. He was also a freelance journalist and a proofreader for Harper's Magazine.[1]
In 1994, Blodget joined the corporate finance training program at Prudential Securities, and, two years later, moved to Oppenheimer & Co. in equity research. In October 1998 he predicted that Amazon, then trading at $240, would trade for $400 within a year. This was thought highly unlikely by many traders at the time; however, just three weeks later Amazon's stock passed that mark (a gain of 128%).[4]
This call received significant media attention. Two months later, he accepted a position at Merrill Lynch,[4][5] and frequently appeared on CNBC and other similar shows. In early 2000, days before the dot-com bubble burst, Blodget personally invested $700,000 in tech stocks, only to lose most of it in the years that followed.[6] In 2001, he accepted a buyout offer from Merrill Lynch and left the firm.[1]
Fraud allegation and settlement
In 2002, then New York State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer published Merrill Lynch e-mails in which Blodget gave assessments about stocks which conflicted with what was publicly published.[7] In 2003, he was charged with civil securities fraud by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.[8] He agreed to a permanent ban from the securities industry and paid a $2 million fine plus a $2 million disgorgement.[2]
He became the CEO, co-Founder, and editor-in-chief of Silicon Alley Insider, where he was a frequent contributor to the Seeking Alpha website.[9] Prior to co-founding Silicon Alley Insider, Blodget served as CEO of Cherry Hill Research, a research and consulting firm, and contributed to Slate, Newsweek International, The New York Times, Fortune, Forbes Online, Business 2.0, Euromoney, New York, The Financial Times, and other publications. As of 2017, he is the CEO and editor-in-chief of Business Insider, a news website. He is a frequent contributor to the magazines Slate, Newsweek, and New York magazine.
Blodget's later articles for the magazine have focused on the return-limiting actions of individual investors, including listening to analysts and the financial media, and relying on active management such as mutual and hedge funds. His Slate articles about investing carry a seven-paragraph disclosure of potential conflicts of interest.[6]
He published The Wall Street Self-Defense Manual: A Consumer's Guide to Intelligent Investing in January 2007.[10]
Internet broadcaster
Blodget used to co-host the Daily-Ticker[11] broadcast with Aaron Task weekdays at Yahoo! Finance.

Bishop Auckland College, located in County Durham, offers a range of disciplines from Computing & IT, Music to Beauty Therapy. These courses are offered on a part-time or full-time basis to open up courses to adult learners. Rated 'Good' by Ofsted, Bishop Auckland College promotes safeguarding and equality of opportunities in all aspects of their work and Impero Education Pro is helping to achieve that.
Before Impero Education Pro, Bishop Auckland College was utilising NetSupport, a remote connection tool to control their PCs. However, this product failed to meet the requirements of the college as a whole. Bishop Auckland College required a monitoring solution to keep track of, and control, student usage on their college network. Therefore, the need for an alternative solution was identified.
When it came to looking for a solution, Bishop Auckland College did not have to look far. Using Impero Education Pro in a previous role, the current Head of IT Services at the college suggested Impero Education Pro and no other alternatives were considered. As a consolidated solution for classroom management, network management and online safety, the Head of IT Services spoke highly of the software's range of features and described Impero Education Pro as "immediately above the competition".
Bishop Auckland College have used Impero Education Pro for the last 4 years, where it has worked brilliantly. The initial implementation process proved straightforward; once the Impero server was set up, all Bishop Auckland College had to do was set permissions for those who needed to access the Impero console. Upgrades since initial implementation have been very straightforward, with settings and policies migrated over to save the team time. The IT team has even noticed several changes over the four years of using Impero Education Pro, including interface changes, better policies, and enhancements to make their lives easier.
Since installing Impero Education Pro, Bishop Auckland College has realised a variety of benefits:
focused independent learning: Using groups and applying settings to these particular groups, the library staff are able to keep students focused and on task. As part of the "quiet zone", students are not permitted to listen to music – those who do are moved into a 'muted sound group' where websites like YouTube and SoundCloud are restricted.
saves money: Using the power management features included in Impero Education Pro, Bishop Auckland College can shut down and power up PCs in the learning zone each day without user intervention. After running a power report, Bishop Auckland College identified that they have saved £46.00 over the last week using these features.
saves time: Using the capture log, combined with the ability to pull a report based on these captures, Bishop Auckland College have visibility of everything a student has accessed from the time they log on to the time they log off. With real-time email notifications, the IT team can investigate a capture further. Prior to Impero Education Pro, Bishop Auckland College would have to troll through log files which was a long and tedious task.
Q&A with Wayne Longton-Worley, Head of IT Services
how does Impero Education Pro help focus learning in the e-zone?
Like a lot of colleges across the UK, we're advised to promote independent learning. Each week students are timetabled to the learning zone, an area in the library with 160 devices. From here students can log onto the virtual learning environment, where their teachers have set them tasks or they can finish reports – or any other independent learning. Using Impero Education Pro, we can centralise the monitoring of student usage on these computers. We can monitor attendance and, at a glance, we can see if a student is on track or not. Locking down certain websites like YouTube helps to create a controlled environment and keep students on task, which is a challenge for 16-18 year olds. The library staff have the console open all day every day and can see all the devices from one screen. The notifications help show who is trying to access gaming sites, and they can go over to that student and swiftly put them back on track. It's like having an extra member of staff – it's so easy to use, they'd be lost without it.
how does Impero Education Pro help keep your students safe online?
The policy management included in Impero Education Pro really helps, and we're able to capture the obvious things like gambling sites. Beyond that, Impero Education Pro also helps us to comply with the Prevent Duty by capturing activity and terms related to radicalisation. Impero Education Pro is genuinely a really good safeguarding tool. Terms regarding terrorist organisations are generated all the time and there's all sort of methods to spread the word, and it was previously tricky to capture this. Now, using Impero Education Pro's keyword detection libraries, we're helping to ensure we're keeping students safe in our school environment. Impero is also really good for reporting these online dangers, unlike filtering systems, which only provide you with raw data that's difficult to understand, Impero Education Pro gives you the "who, what, where, why". It's very clear and that's a very important feature for us. The granular control helps get information more quickly and pinpoint an issue, we can escalate it much more efficiently.
what are your next steps?
We've got various other locations with PCs across our campuses that don't currently have Impero Education Pro installed. In order to utilise the features included in Impero Education Pro college-wide, we've decided to purchase additional licences so we can monitor and control all 500 of our machines.
how would you describe our support team?
I spoke directly with the support team over the summer holidays. I phoned through and got remotely connected with the team almost immediately. They send over a set of instructions to follow and the issue was solved.
how would you summarise Impero Education Pro?
Gives you complete control while being really easy to use.

Hello Readers!
So, you may have notice that I didn't get out a Fancy Friday post yesterday. I was a bad scheduler and didn't work on it early enough to get it up for yesterday. Whoops! Either way, I might not continue with it, i'm really not sure yet. The reason I wasn't home until late last night (9:45, I know guys, really not that late) was because I was at Paint Nite!
Really disappointed with the photo quality on my front facing camera. :-[
Paint Nite is one of those paint as you drink events that seem to be super popular everywhere. There are a bunch of different companies that do this but this one is one of the few closest to me. They are all over the US so check out their website to see if there are any in your area!
The idea is really simple. You pick a painting (or a date or an artist) and sign up for that event. Show up, buy a drink, and paint! It's that simple! The drinks are not included but all of your paint supplies are! Bonus: a lot of these events are held at a bar and right after normal working hours. Helloooo Happy Hour.
Our instructor, Elizabeth, was fantastic. She was very upbeat and bubbly and she really kept the night fun for everyone. The artist has a completed painting on display for reference and they paint right along with you so you can get some instruction. They'll tell you what colors to use and which brushes.
We did all of this with the "big daddy" brush.
The mood is light, and fun, and you're encouraged to be as creative as you want. You don't have to do exactly what the artist tells you and by the end of the night everyone's paintings look slightly different. Some choose to use completely different colors than the suggestions.
Mine is on the left and my friend, Jessica's is on the right. I went with more squiggly grass and she went with more realistic looking grass haha. During the event you get a break in the middle to let your painting dry and kinda wander around to see what everyone else's looks like or to refill your drink. At the two Paint Nites I've done the waitresses or bartenders come around and take orders so you don't have to get up in the middle of painting, which is fantastic.
This type of thing is perfect for a group of friends or relatives and they even have private events! It's also great for just 2 people to go and hang out. In fact, most of the people last night were groups of two. Yes, there are even guys there. Last night there were 3, I believe (all with their respective wives/girlfriends) and they all seemed to be having a blast. Even the gentleman next to me had fun even though he would have rather been watching hockey.
Once everyone's all done you can get group pictures taken and really check out all of the other paintings. If drinking while painting isn't enough of an enticement, the second best part is that there is absolutely no setup or cleanup! Your wonderful artist sets everything up before you arrive. Easel, canvas, paint, brushes, water cup, paper towels. It's all done for you. And when you're done painting, you just leave everything and it all gets cleaned up after you're gone. Sorry if we made a mess Elizabeth!
Did I mention the sweet smocks (aprons?) you get to wear?
Please excuse the work pants tucked into the boots. It's currently -20something outside.
Have you ever done a Paint Nite or a Pant n' Sip? Let me know what you thought!

Chapter 372: Start of Battle!
Gong ha! Gong ha! Gong ha!
As Great Tang's army marched to the foot of the massive mountain, the two hundred shield bearers raised their tower shields high and slammed them on the ground continuously, seemingly provoking the group at the mountain peak.
Through this, the army created an incredible momentum reminiscent of an army of thousands. The domineering clamor echoed resoundingly throughout the mountain range.
The deafening waves of sound whipped up a powerful gale that raged through the mountain forests.
While the four hundred footsoldiers couldn't be considered as elites, they had undergone the Big Dipper Army's rigorous training, and they were carefully picked from the various platoons in Longxi. Some of them were even handpicked by the commandant himself.
This was the reason why the commandant carried absolute trust in his foot soldiers.
"Stick to the formation strictly. Anyone who dares to leave the group of their own accord will be beheaded!" a powerful voice boomed in the air. The Big Dipper Army commandant raised his sword high in the air, and the cold gleam of his blade shimmered in the air.
A distance behind him, a huge group of cavalry were ordered in a neat formation.
This positioning was tactical, as well. The footsoldiers were positioned at the forefront to cushion the enemy's charge, as well as to slow their momentum so that the cavalrymen could cut into the enemy's formation, scattering their troops.
For this purpose, the cavalrymen were intentionally left trailing behind the group to create sufficient space for them to generate momentum for a charge.
This was an example of one of the more popular infantry-cavalry tactics, one that was frequently used by the Big Dipper Army in Longxi to deal with the Tibetans.
Often, warfare is about how meticulous one is.
Regardless of whether it was the massive tower shields or the positioning of the troops, these showed that the Big Dipper Army commandant wasn't an amateur to warfare.
With these measures in place, the Big Dipper Army commandant was confident of winning the battle.
Dong dong!
With the loud beating of war drums, just as the Big Dipper Army commandant was staring at the opposite end, waiting for the Tibetan army on the opposite mountain to appear, he suddenly heard the flurried clopping of hooves.
A military inspector was rushing toward him at full speed.
"Lord, bad news!"
"What's wrong?" The Big Dipper Army commandant frowned in displeasure.
"Reporting to lord, two hundred men are missing from our formation!"
"What?!" The Big Dipper Army command's face turned livid in rage. "You bastard, are you kidding me?"
For two hundred men to be missing from the formation at such a time was no joking affair!
Cold sweat seeped down the military inspector's forehead. He swiftly explained the matter, saying that he had only just noticed the disappearance of the riders.
Considering the strict discipline that the Big Dipper Army imposed on their troops, this was a serious matter.
"Do you know who the ones that fled are?" The Big Dipper Army commandant questioned sternly.
"Yes, we have already confirmed the missing personnel!" The military inspector swiftly reported the names of the missing personnel. The troops who were missing were all under the leadership of the scions of the capital.
The scions of the capital were all spoiled brats who were fearful of death. Clearly, they felt apprehensive about this battle, so they chose to flee before the start of the battle.
This was deserting the army!
"Those bastards!" The Big Dipper Army commandant's face was darker than ever.
Fleeing before battle warranted a death penalty. It was one thing for those scions to flee, but to think those veteran cavalrymen under them would do the same as well. This was unpardonable!
Did they think that their Big Dipper Army dared not execute scions like them?
But at that instant, a powerful aura suddenly swept down from the top of the mountain.
A powerful gale blew in the air. Atop the horseback, the Big Dipper Army commandant felt his heart skip a beat. Lifting his head, he saw many war steeds appearing amidst the dense forests.
Highland steeds!
The Big Dipper Army commandant instantaneously recognized those greenish-black war steeds at the peak of the mountain. The highland steeds were the most outstanding breed of horses in the -Tsang highlands. Despite their shorter limbs and smaller stature compared to the Central Plains steeds, they possessed extraordinary lung capacity and powerful bodies.
This meant that they could sprint at an alarming speed, thus creating great force in their charges.
In the past clashes between Great Tang and -Tsang, these war steeds had displayed tremendous fighting prowess.
Like sculpted statues, the hundreds of highland steeds stood motionlessly in a neat formation as they gazed down at the troops on the foot of the mountain.
The imposing aura from their presence created a heavy pressure on those standing beneath them.
"Return to your position for now. We shall deal with those deserters later on!" The Big Dipper Army commandant immediately dismissed the military inspector as he raised the sword in his right arm high and issued a heavy and authoritative command, "Everyone, prepare yourselves!"
With this, the atmosphere suddenly felt so tense that it felt as if the air was laced with lead. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the mountain before them.
At this moment, no one had the spare attention to care about the deserters anymore.
Even though two hundred deserters would result in a significantly weaker fighting prowess, there were still eight hundred remaining soldiers in the army. With this number, they still outnumbered the Tibetan soldiers by more than twofold!
Hong long!
On the peak of the mountain, three hundred Tibetan soldiers slowly emerged from the forest like demons emerging from the gates of hell, coming into everyone's view.
These cavalrymen, along with their steeds, were equipped with heavy armor from head to toe. They carried a particularly heavy disposition, reminiscent of immovable mountains.
Even from afar, the Great Tang soldiers could clearly perceive the aura, and they couldn't help but feel a heavy pressure weighing down on them. The Big Dipper Army commandant's face warped slightly in astonishment.
Without a doubt, these fellows were elite troops!
"Plant your shields on the ground diagonally!"
"Archers, draw your arrows!"
"Cavalrymen, prepare yourselves. Move at my command!"
Klang! Yiii!
The Big Dipper Army commandant issued a series of commands. Following his orders, the sound of heavy shields being planted in the ground and arrows being drawn on bowstrings echoed.
"It's about to begin!" At the same time, at the top of the mountain, the commander of the Tibetan army glanced at the ant-like formation of the army beneath, and a savage smile surfaced on his face.
Their final fight was just about to begin.
After defeating this final wave of Great Tang soldiers and destroying the resting point, they would have accomplished their mission. They would be able to depart from here and return to -Tsang.
Without a doubt, the current Great Tang was nowhere near comparable to -Tsang.
The Tibetan commander drew the scimitar on his waist and raised it high above his head.
This uniquely forged Tibetan scimitar reflected a bone-chilling gleam from its blade.
"Soldiers, heed my orders. Destroy these fools, and we'll be able to return to our homeland!"
The eyes of the three hundred cavalrymen gleamed excitedly as they cheered loudly. Killing intent began gushing from their bodies like a flood tide.
"Hehehe, good!" Feeling the surge of killing intent behind him, a cruel smile crept onto the lips of the Tibetan commander in the front. The scimitar he had raised up high cut down abruptly as he bellowed, "Charge!"
With a loud rumble, the three hundred Tibetan soldiers charged down the mountain on their highland steeds.
Their initial speed wasn't too fast, but gradually, they became faster and faster, and eventually, even the ground seemed to tremble beneath them.
The heavy mountainlike aura that they emanated swiftly intensified along with their charge, growing several times more powerful.
Their initial formation was also swiftly changing amidst their charge. One echelon, two echelons... Before long, the army of three hundred had been divided to around a dozen echelons as they charged to the bottom of the hill like a tsunami.
Flying Wedge Charging Formation!
This was the most effective and powerful charging formation that the Tibetan had developed and refined over a long period of time.
In this formation, ranks of cavalry would swipe away at the enemy's defense line in wave after wave, swiftly wearing them down.
A powerful group of shield bearers might be able to withstand the first charge, but could they withstand, the second, third, fourth... tenth, twentieth?
After a certain point, they would be able to tear through the opponent's front line and destroy their formation.
As long as they could breach the defense line, chaos would swiftly spread within the army!
This was a fact that the Tibetans had discovered after innumerable clashes in the Central Plains.
The Flying Wedge Charging Formation they adopted allowed for some space between the cavalrymen echelons so that they could adjust their positioning if required. This way, even if the cavalrymen in an earlier echelon were to fail, it wouldn't affect the subsequent charging echelons.
Compared to a compact formation, such a design better ensured the continuity of the charge, thus enhancing the might and lengthening the duration of the attack.
Of the cavalrymen in the world, the only ones who had succeeded in drawing out the full potential of a Flying Wedge Formation were the Tibetans.
Hong long long!
Amid the loud rumbling of horse hooves and furious war cries, the charge of the Tibetan cavalrymen grew faster and faster, reaching an inconceivable speed.
From afar, it looked like greenish-black streaks of destructive lightning were surging down the mountain, heading towards them.
The incredible momentum they harnessed was reminiscent of an avalanche, seemingly unstoppable by human force.
A grim expression appeared on the face of the Big Dipper Army commandant as he watched the sight before him.
He suddenly realized that he might have been underestimating the Tibetan army all along!

They ain't got no alibi.
It was ugly. Yeah. Yeah.
It was ugly.
In this cheer, I'm speaking of the Texans' 16-13 pillow-fight victory over the Rams on Sunday in St. Louis. A win is a win, but this one wasn't very entertaining.
I'm usually the one person on Chron.com with a positive outlook, and I might be that person this time next week if the Texans put on a great performance against the Dolphins in Miami. I hate being a Debbie Downer, but I had predicted a blowout. John McClain predicted a 3-point Texans victory, and I hate when he's right.
While you're here, go ahead and point out the positives.
The Texans are still in the playoff-hunt conversation, and I can't imagine how dreadful player interviews would be this week had the Texans blown that game against the Rams.
Are you still optimistic?

Hoodie Allen - Two Lips (Acoustic)
- Artist: Hoodie Allen
- Track: Two Lips (Acoustic)
- Producer: Matt Wentworth and Jared Evan
- Album: Americoustic EP
Damn, Hoodie, slow down! Just last Wednesday, Hoodie Allen dropped an acoustic version of his hit single No Interruption. While we could have basked in that cut's afterglow for weeks, the artist is already back with another song release off his forthcoming EP. The H.A. hit on the menu this week: Two Lips. Proving that his impressive vocal performance on No Interruption was no fluke, the artist again showcases his skills as a crooner. Whereas its predecessor was energetic and vibrant, Two Lips has a much more poignant, heartfelt vibe. Backed by a light guitar arrangement (produced by Matt Wentworth and Jared Evan), Hoodie's vocals shine, and the power in his voice is on full display. If this selection's sparked your interest, be sure to check out the Americoustic EP when it drops digitally next week.

We have been fortunate to represent several First Period home sales (such as the Isaac Goodale House pictured) in Ipswich. Ipswich has a long and storied history and one of the most extensive inventories of historic homes in the country. We have relied on the excellent website " Historic Ipswich Massachusetts" to deepen our appreciation and broaden our knowledge. It is a thorough and informative place to learn about this great town's past and present. If you are interested in knowing what antique homes are on the market, we will be honored to help!
If the Isaac Goodale house EVER comes on the market again will you let me know or if another house of the same age and quality comes on the market would you let me know? I want a First Period house which has been maintained with integrity. And in a beautiful site if possible. I am happy to do restoration work but I do not want a house filled with plastic and a builder's dream kitchen. The wide floors must be intact, the beams original and the fireplaces have maintained their original spirit. I have no preference as to town but would like to be within an easy drive of the water, the ocean not a lake. Thank you.

The following press release comes from the Uniersity of Zurich.
Is there anyone out there who doesn't know Jaws, the film about the great white shark and the devastation it wreaked? But there have been even bigger and more dangerous sharks in the past: The largest shark in the history of the planet, Carcharocles megalodon, lived between 23 million and 2.6 million years ago, reaching body lengths of up to 18 meters and probably feeding on marine mammals. Then it became extinct. In the past, climate changes have generally been blamed for its disappearance. Now, for the first time, researchers from the University of Zurich have examined the geographical distribution of the megalodon over time and arrived at the following conclusion: The giant shark became extinct because the diversity of its prey decreased and new predators appeared as competitors.
200 records from all over the globe
The team surrounding Catalina Pimiento from the Paleontological Institute and Museum of the University of Zurich assessed roughly 200 megalodon records from museum collections and databases, ranging in age for more than 20 million years. Based on these data, the scientists reconstructed the range and the abundance of this prehistoric animal: In the early Miocene, up to approximately 16 million years ago, they were mainly found in the Northern Hemisphere in the warm waters off the coast of America, around Europe and in the Indian Ocean, but they later penetrated further into the Asian, Australian and South American coasts. Abundance of the species peaked in the middle Miocene, while the largest geographical coverage did not take place until the late Miocene. The continuous decline (see charts) followed around 5 million years ago with the gradual emergence of a glacial period during the Pliocene.
Food resources disappear
"We were not able to ascertain any direct link between the extinction of C. megalodon and the global fluctuations in temperatures during this time. Changing climatic conditions do not appear to have had any influence on the population density and range of the giant sharks," explains Pimiento. Their numbers did not decline in colder periods, nor did they increase significantly in rising water temperatures.
Instead, the evolutionary narrative of other species seems to have had an effect on the development of the monster sharks. When Megalodon range shrank, numerous smaller marine mammal species disappeared. The second factor was the appearance of new predators such as the ancestors of the killer whale and the great white shark. The results suggest that these species could have competed for the increasingly scarce food sources.

143 - Mesoamerican Fortified and Defensive Sites by Period
Archaeologists have now identified numerous fortified sites in Mesoamerica. In the early periods, these fortifications consisted of earthen barriers, stone walls with gates, wooden palisades, isolated guard posts, elevated defensive sites, and moats or ditches. The peoples in that land were once thought to be strictly peaceful, but that idea has been proven wrong. Although the numbers in this chart are tentative (dependent as they are on the accidents of archaeological discovery), it is interesting to note that the number of known fortified sites sharply increases in the period when the Nephites also experienced their years of greatest military conflict.
