If you're anything like me, you may have thought that 1979's, 'Video Killed the Radio Star', was the beginning and the end of all you needed to know about London's late 70's electro duo dweebs, The Buggles. But you (and I) would be wrong. What I thought (and, admittedly, hoped) would be a cut and dry case of a one hit wonder, turned into two musicians/producers who shed their nerdy skins and went on to influence the sound of the entire decade of the 80's, and well beyond.

On Friday, CNS News reported that Chicago Public Schools have announced that all students and teachers will have access to whichever locker rooms and other spaces that were formerly reserved for one sex. This means that any teenage boy who wants to undress in the girls' locker room is free to do so. It also means that girls only health classes dealing with feminine issues are a thing of the past in Chicago.
The article reports:
In a weak acknowledgement of the uproar this will cause, the Chicago Public Schools says students that are not gender confused "should" be allowed access to alternative facilities. So, for example, if there are fifty girls who object to a boy undressing in front of them, it is the fifty girls, not the boy, who must go change in "single stall restrooms" elsewhere. Of course, the odds are high that school officials on the lookout for any sign of "bullying" will take careful note of which students leave the locker rooms, presuming they are allowed to leave at all.
To add to the confusion, the definition of gender identity changes about every three months, so the rules we are supposed to live by are constantly moving. But the latest definition, according to the Chicago Public Schools, is that sex is merely "a label a person is assigned at birth" and that the reality lies in one's internal "psychological knowledge" of their own gender "regardless of the[ir] biological sex."
At what point does common sense make an appearance?
The article concludes:
And therein lies the biggest affront from these new policies. Not only must government employees play along with a gender confused child's every subjective wish, so must every other student. In fact, the Chicago Public Schools specify that students must address a gender confused child by whatever pronoun they wish, be it "they, their, ze, he and she." Failure to do so "will result in appropriate consequences for offending staff and students," in other words, discipline up to and including expulsion from school.
But many people of good will and faith conviction will simply refuse to put aside their legitimate privacy, modesty, and safety concerns. Many children of good will resist being forced to say "she" when speaking of a boy they have known for years just as they would resist being forced to say "5" when asked "what does 2+2 equal?
The left for years claimed that all they wanted was for LGBT persons to be left alone but this was a lie. It is now clear that liberals and their enablers will not leave anyone alone and will use the full force of courts, lawsuits, and government to ensure any resistance to their new gender ideology "will result in appropriate consequences."
I think I would continue my school day sweaty and smelly rather than take a chance and dress in the locker room under the new rules. What are we doing to our children?

Twins sign infielder Ehire Adrianza to 1-year deal
MINNEAPOLIS — Backup infielder Ehire Adrianza and the Minnesota Twins agreed Monday to a $1.6 million, one-year contract, avoiding salary arbitration.
The deal was reached ahead of the deadline for major league teams to offer 2020 contracts to unsigned players on their 40-man rosters.
Adrianza played seven positions this year, everywhere but catcher and center field, taking the majority of his turns at third base, shortstop and first base. The 30-year-old batted .272 with a .765 on-base-plus-slugging percentage, both career bests. He had five homers and 22 RBIs in 202 at-bats.
Adrianza has hit .260 with a .711 OPS in 267 games with the Twins since being claimed off waivers in 2017, playing at least five positions in all three years. He's eligible for free agency after next season.

National Assessment of Title I: Interim Report
Volume II: Closing the Reading Gap
This study is a large-scale, longitudinal evaluation comprising two main elements. The first element of the evaluation is an impact study of the four interventions. This evaluation report is addressing three broad types of questions related to intervention impacts:
- What is the impact of being in any of the four remedial reading interventions, considered as a group, relative to the instruction provided by the schools? What is the impact of being in one of the remedial reading programs that focuses primarily on developing word-level skills, considered as a group, relative to the instruction provided by the schools? What is the impact of being in each of the four particular remedial reading interventions, considered individually, relative to the instruction provided by the schools?
- Do the impacts of programs vary across students with different baseline characteristics?
- To what extent can the instruction provided in this study close the reading gap and bring struggling readers within the normal range, relative to the instruction provided by their schools?
To answer these questions, the impact study was based on a scientifically rigorous design—an experimental design that uses random assignment at two levels: (1) 50 schools from 27 school districts were randomly assigned to one of the four interventions, and (2) within each school, eligible children in grades 3 and 5 were randomly assigned to a treatment group or to a control group. Students assigned to the intervention group (treatment group) were placed by the program providers and local coordinators into instructional groups of three students. Students in the control groups received the same instruction
in reading that they would have ordinarily received. Children were defined as eligible if they were identified by their teachers as struggling readers and if they scored at or below the 30th percentile on a word-level reading test and at or above the 5th percentile on a vocabulary test. From an original pool of 1,576 3rd and 5th grade students identified as struggling readers, 1,042 also met the test-score criteria. Of these eligible students, 772 were given permission by their parents to participate in the evaluation.
The second element of the evaluation is an implementation study that has two components: (1) an exploration of the similarities and differences in reading instruction offered in the four interventions and (2) a description of the regular instruction that students in the control group received in the absence of the interventions and the regular instruction received by the treatment group beyond the interventions.
Test data and other information on students, parents, teachers, classrooms, and schools is being collected several times over a three-year period. Key data collection points pertinent to this summary report include the period just before the interventions began, when baseline information was collected, and the period immediately after the interventions ended, when follow-up data were collected. Additional follow-up data for students and teachers are being collected in 2005 and again in 2006.

Retirement never seems to last very long in the Dota 2 world as players are often still filled with a passion for the game. One such player is Avery 'SVG' Silverman.
SVG was a very well-known name in Dota 2, having coached Evil Geniuses on two separate short occasions. He played at Team NP with the likes of Kurtis 'Aui_2000' Ling and Theban '1437' Silva and more recently with VGJ.Storm – before leaving and joining Forward Gaming with the squad. However, without any success in the first three Majors of the 2018/2019 Dota 2 Pro Circuit season, SVG would announce his retirement from professional play back in March of this year.
But as we know, retirement never lasts too long for Dota 2 players and it seems that SVG has returned, reviving an old team name with some of the ex-Forward Gaming roster. Quincy Crew was the name used by the team in the interim between VGJ.Storm and Forward Gaming and now they return with at least two players from that line-up. Registered just this morning on the Minor and Major registration page were three players who would be playing under the Quincy Crew banner.
- Arif 'MSS' Anwar
- Quinn 'CCnC/Quinn' Callahan
- Avery 'SVG' Silverman
There is currently no other information available about which other two players will be joining this team but with the registration deadline only a couple of days away, it should surely be announced soon. It will be interesting to see if Quincy Crew can find the right players to play as well as the likes of VGJ.Storm but we will continue to watch the registrations and bring you any new information that comes up.

Mystery of the Rose Bouquet
By the time you walk out of the Intar theater, you may want to grab the bouquet of roses and toss it in the air as a tribute to this lovely bouquet of a play, the last to be completed by Manuel Puig. It features only two actors -- Virginia Rambal as a wealthy patient in an exclusive Buenos Aires clinic and Doris DiFarnecio as her nurse -- and a single set by Van Santvoord. But those two actors bring us a whole spectrum of Latin American society and its economic and gender prescribed boundaries, and that single set on the small Intar stage magically expands to accommodate the two women's real and fantasy world.
If you read Puig's novel Kiss of the Spiderwoman or saw the novel or musical adapted from it, you'll recognize several of the hallmarks of that work: The bringing together of two characters from totally different walks of life in an institutional setting, each struggling for psychological dominance and finding escape from the harsh realities of existence into a make believe world.
Unlike the characters in Kiss of the Spider Woman, the women in Mystery of the Rose Bouquet, have arrived voluntarily at the clinic which will become their emotional battlefield . The patient, (both women remain nameless), is a wealthy, bossy widow who's had a nervous breakdown as a result of her beloved twenty-two year old grandson's death in a car accident. She is depressed enough to have checked herself into this clinic but hardly helpless; on the contrary, her need for control is evident in every action and word and her tongue retains its razor edge. The diminutive nurse's subservient manner seems a perfect foil for the imposing, tougher and older woman.
As the play moves forward the layers beneath the women's personas are shed like the petals in the rose bouquet in the vase on a side table. (The symbolism of this always visible prop is clarified in a second act dream sequence). The older woman isn't quite as tough as she seems and the nurse is not quite the poverty-stricken simple woman she claims to be.
It's difficult to synopsize this beguiling story of two women, worlds apart socially but each trapped in the confining mind set represented by the hospital room where they meet and with their only possibility for escape depending on understanding each other and thereby themselves. You see, the real charm and strength of Rose Bouquet is not so much its plot, as the multi-layered characterizations which take the two actors beyond their primary roles, metamorphosing into the characters within the magical terrain of their memories. Doris DiFarnecio especially is a wonder of versatility. The way she devours the food on her patient's untouched tray and the pastries she's sent out to buy speaks volumes of the hunger of a woman starved for love and a different life. She is equally adept at portraying such dream characters, as the older woman's sister and daughter, and confronting her own mother.
Mere praise is insufficient for the already mentioned Van Santvoord set design with its scrim-doored armoire that opens into the world of the two women's inner landscape and a "magical" blanket chest a world outside the clinic. It is a major third player . Also worth mentioning is the evocative background music inspired by Manuel de Falla's "Nights in the Garden of Spain".
It would be nice if Mystery of the Rose Bouquet got enough critical attention to extend beyond its limited run. Since virtue is not always rewarded, catch it now. At $20 a ticket it's very much a "best buy."

text: 1outlaw 10 Report post Posted November 21, 2013 Billy made an important observation- the static compression is always published but what is truly of importance is the dynamic compression. The static is basically the amount the air would be "squished" if the intake and exhaust valves were closed for the compression stroke. Dynamic takes in account the bleed off of air from late closing of intake valves and is determined by static compression and valve timing- this explains it better than I; http://cochise.uia.net/pkelley2/DynamicCR.html Too much dynamic compression will certainly cause detonation far sooner with any pump grade type gas than E85 which loves compression. Also true for cylinder pressure or crank pressures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many books have been published or reprinted following the death of former prime minister Lee Kuan Yew.
However, one aspect of Mr Lee cannot be captured in all that has been written about him: How he talked to the people.
The late Dr Goh Keng Swee noted that Mr Lee spent a lot of time talking to the people, especially on television and radio.
Mr Lee was a great orator. He was a charismatic speaker and never failed to enthuse the people as he explained why certain things had to be done in a certain way.
Many, like myself, would rush home to listen to him on TV.
No other leader in our country can come close to him in his speeches.
If he suddenly switched from a prepared speech to speaking off the cuff, people would be mesmerised by what he said.
As we come close to celebrating 50 years of independence, perhaps a CD or DVD of Mr Lee's speeches can be compiled, as an alternative to books.

This honey dipping pot has a minimalist design that adds to the decor of home kitchens.
One of the issues with packaging that honey comes in -- whether in jar or bottle format -- is that it inevitably gets sticky and ends up being difficult to open. The Honey Jar was designed to prevent that from happening. Designed by 'Theetes,' the dipping pot features a small glass jar with a dark wooden lid that comes attached with a dipper. Rather than having to pour, squeeze or spoon out honey, the dipping pot allows for it to be drizzled onto foods easily and without any mess.
The sophisticated design of the Honey Jar, coupled with the fact that it prevents messes, makes it an excellent kitchen item to store this popular food item.
This Pot Was Designed to Contain the Mess That Honey Can Cause in Kitchens

Topic of the Week: NDA Aversion
Non-Disclosure Agreements ("NDAs") are common practice in private equity. No NDA, no info. It's simple.
The majority of the venture capital industry doesn't buy into this practice. In fact, most prominent VCs publically state they won't sign an NDA. By asking for one, you look like an amateur who doesn't understand how to raise capital. Their words, not mine.
Here are a few examples of what I'm talking about here and here.
Maybe I'm an old-school curmudgeon, but I take issue with this stance. Regardless of stage, entrepreneurs work incredibly hard to build their businesses and deserve basic legal protections when opening up the kimono to investors.
Today, I thought I would dissect several of the top reasons why an investor won't sign an NDA and provide perspective for why I disagree.
Opinion #1: They are a hassle
NDAs are a hassle. Having to go back and forth over tiny details and get sign off from lawyers is a pain. It takes time. Doing this for the hundreds or thousands of investments each year is an expensive nightmare.
However, there is this handy tool called a template NDA. It is great. Your legal counsel blesses it, and you insist on adhering to it. We have one, and I bust it out every time I see an NDA that won't fly. It's reasonable, protects us, and rarely does anyone insist on changes.
Opinion #2: NDAs open investors up to legal issues
Most of this concern is due to the fact that investors evaluate multiple competing businesses at the same time. It's an important step in due diligence to ensure you make the best possible investment.
By signing an NDA and then investing in a competitive business, an entrepreneur may try to sue you for sharing information to benefit your new investment.
First, this can happen regardless of whether or not you sign an NDA. An overly litigious person is going to be a pain in your side regardless.
Second, see response to #1. Your template NDA should account for this. In clear terms, it should state that you are in the business of making investments. You could be evaluating similar businesses and nothing in the NDA prohibits you from doing it as long as your not sharing confidential information.
Here's a brief excerpt in legal language to give you a flavor for what I'm talking about:
The terms of confidential information under this Agreement shall not be construed to limit any party's rights to make investments or develop independently or acquire products without use of the other Party's Confidential Information. The Disclosing Party acknowledges that the Receiving Party may currently or in the future be developing information internally, or receiving information from other parties, that is similar to the Confidential Information. [this section goes on for another five sentences, covering every legal angle, but you get the hint]
Opinion #3: NDAs are just a piece of paper and rarely enforceable
This one is my favorite. In theory, this is correct. An NDA is just a piece of paper or digital blip, and it is difficult to prove someone violated an NDA.
However, if NDAs don't matter, why do most VCs have confidentiality provisions within their fund documents? If the VC firms business model, results, investments, etc. warrant legal protection, so does an entrepreneur.
Second, you could make this argument for a host of common legal provisions. Why do VCs insist key management members sign non-competes when they are unenforceable in many cases?
It's because legal documents are there to protect you in the worst case scenario and to inhibit bad actors. Just because something isn't easy to enforce, doesn't mean it can't protect you.
Opinion #4: Confidentiality is an investor's business.
As an investor, your reputation is what helps you win deals. If you have a reputation for being an open book with trade secrets, entrepreneurs will find out, and they won't like it.
However, anyone who has even dipped a toe into the deal industry knows that there are leaks. It could be you, a junior employee, your dog, an advisor. Information has this weird way of getting out.
Not having an NDA makes it perfectly legal for someone to send whatever information they please to your closest competitors.
Concluding Thoughts:
Always get an NDA in place, when possible. However, please do not start with an incredibly restrictive NDA. No one worth talking to will sign it.
If someone is unwilling to sign an NDA, you have to decide whether or not it's worth taking the risk to work with that person. The reality is most prominent VCs won't sign an NDA. It's a fact.
As a general rule, don't ever share your secret sauce or highly sensitive information in preliminary stages of a discussion.
PS – It took all my willpower not to make a few lawyer jokes while talking about NDAs.
Have a great weekend everyone!

How many of the composers' names below do you recognize?
Probably very few, if you are like The Ear.
But here is your chance to explore new musical territory.
Over many years, the adventurous Oakwood Chamber Players (OCP) have built a reputation for first-rate performances of rarely heard repertoire, both old and new.
This year is no different.
The group will begin its new season — entitled Panorama— with performances on this coming Saturday night, Sept. 14, at 7 p.m. and Sunday afternoon, Sept. 15, at 2 p.m.
Both concerts will be held at the Oakwood Village Center for Arts and Education, 6209 Mineral Point Road, on Madison's far west side near West Towne Mall.
Tickets can be purchased with cash or personal checks — no credit cards — at the door: $25 for general admission, $20 for seniors and $5 for students. Visit www.oakwoodchamberplayers.com for more information.
Members of the Oakwood Chamber Players (below) are: flutist Marilyn Chohaney; clarinetist Nancy Mackenzie; bassoonist Amanda Szczys; hornist Anne Aley; violinist Elspeth Stalter-Clouse; and cellist Maggie Darby Townsend.
Guest artists are: pianist Eric Tran; flutist Dawn Lawler; oboist Valree Casey; bassoonist Midori Samson; and trumpeter John Aley.
The ensemble is pleased to feature a new member at its opening concert. Violinist Elspeth Stalter-Clouse's talents will be heard in two works: a fiery piano trio by Spanish composer Gaspar Cassado (below top); and as a soloist on the sweetly expressive Canzonetta for violin and piano by Italian-American composer Rosa Alba Vietor (below bottom). You can hear the Recitative movement, which takes about 10 seconds to start, from the Piano Trio by Gaspar Casado in the YouTube video at the bottom.
The program will include two larger wind works by French composers: Pastoral Variations in the Old Style by Gabriel Pierne (below top); and Octet for Winds by Claude Pascal (below bottom).
The ensemble will round out the program with two short contrasting works for winds and piano: the flute trio La Bergere des Brise de Vallee (The Shepherdess of the Valley Breezes) by American composer Margaret Griebling-Haigh (b. 1960, below top); and Suite for flute, oboe, clarinet and piano by Danish composer Johan Amberg (below bottom).
The Oakwood Chamber Players is a group of Madison-area professional musicians who rehearse and perform at Oakwood Village University Woods. Members also play in other area ensembles, including the Madison Symphony Orchestra and the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, and have ties to the University of Wisconsin-Madison Mead Witter School of Music.
The Oakwood Chamber Players are a professional music ensemble proudly supported by Oakwood Lutheran Senior Ministries and the Oakwood Foundation.

The Oakwood Chamber Players (below) officially begin their 2017-2018 season series with the theme "Journey" this coming weekend with a concert titled Departure on Saturday, Sept. 9, at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 10, at 2 p.m.
However, the Oakwood Chamber Players will also present a special performance at Bos Meadery (below), 849 E. Washington Ave., on this Friday night, Sept. 8, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in a range of music choices that will include excerpts from the Departure concert along with a breadth of other styles of music. Donations will be accepted.
The two full-length concerts will both be held at the Oakwood Center for Arts and Education, 6209 Mineral Point Road, on the far west side of Madison near the West Towne Mall.
Guest artists pianist Joseph Ross, violist Sharon Tenhundfeld (below top) and violinist Maureen McCarty (below bottom) will join members of the Oakwood Chamber Players to launch their season.
Tickets can be purchased with cash or personal checks (no credit cards) at the door: $25 general admission, $20 seniors and $5 students.
For tickets and more information, go to www.oakwoodchamberplayers.com or call (608) 230-4316.
According to a press release, "Departure will explore composers' musical journeys as influenced by shifts in their artistic lives.
"Just two years after the start of his huge success in the expanding world of jazz-fusion, with renowned hits such as "Spain," American composer and pianist Chick Corea (below) wrote his Trio for flute, bassoon and piano in 1973.
"He created a fascinating blend — a classical style that both reflects his personal jazz-like fluidity at the keyboard but also transfers the sense of conversational-like interactions that occurs between players. (You can hear Chick Corea's Trio in the YouTube video at the bottom.)
"This succinct piece is infused with the composer's essential and recognizable artistic voice. Corea bridges the boundary between genres in an artful and engaging way, creating a brief snapshot of two artistic worlds joined through the piece's synergy.
"Academy Award-winning and Emmy award-winning film composer Bruce Broughton (below) has consistently contributed to the world of chamber music literature. Broughton's successes in the film industry include Young Sherlock Holmes, Silverado and The Rescuers Down Under.
"His Primer for Malachi, for flute, clarinet, cello and piano, was written in anticipation of the birth of a grandchild in 1997. Through its five short movements the piece creates a programmatic feel. It begins with quiet introspection, progressing through each movement with increasing rhythmic and melodic intensity, peaking with an action-packed instrumental musical tag, and concluding by musically catching its breath, slowing in the final movement to calm and flowing lines, mirroring the opening effect.
"Known for his emotive melodies Armenian-Soviet pianist and composer Alexander Arutiunian wrote prolifically for orchestra, chamber music and film.
"Written in Armenia after spending several years in Moscow, the Concert Waltz for winds and piano is taken from his 1958 film score for the movie "About My Friend." It is a wry waltz set in a minor key, and the composer infuses the familiar waltz dance form with a tongue-in-cheek sense of being on a slightly careening carousel. The piece sparkles with Armenian folk flavor and the energy is captivating.
"The Kaiserwaltz by Viennese composer Johann Strauss musically conjures up the grandeur of the ballroom. The piece was intended to symbolize 'a toast of friendship' between Germany and Austria. The waltz is full of upbeat musical declarations and graceful melodies.
"The Oakwood Chamber Players were pleased to discover that the piece had been reimagined from its full orchestral orchestration, written in 1889, to this delightful version, arranged in 1925 for chamber ensemble by Arnold Schoenberg (below). The grace of this music is refined and enduring.
"German composer and organist Max Reger's perspective on compositional artistry was informed by the masters who came before him.
"However, perpetually fascinated by fugues, Reger (below) often wrote pieces that were very abstract. He worried about the lasting reputation of penning these kinds of ultra-academic compositions. He was an ardent admirer of Bach, Brahms and Beethoven and was very capable of writing a range of styles that were both accessible and rooted in the historic perspectives.
"In his Serenade for flute, violin, and viola, written just a year before his death, he sought to show the range of his compositional capabilities and to silence critics by leaving more approachable music for posterity. At this pivotal time he reached his goal ably, giving the performers an outstanding piece with nimble rhythms, memorable melodies, and the bright voicing of an upbeat sound palette."
This is the first of five concerts in the Oakwood Chamber Players' 2017-2018 season series entitled Journey. Remaining concerts will take place on Nov. 26; Jan. 13 and 14; March 10 and 11; and May 19 and 20.

Over many years, the Oakwood Chamber Players (below) have built a solid reputation for programming unusual composers and neglected works, all performed with first-rate playing.
(You can sample their recording for Naxos Records of a work by UW-Madison graduate Daron Hagen in the YouTube video at the bottom.)
The new 2017-018 season, based on aspects of a JOURNEY is no exception.
Except where noted, performances are on Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. at Oakwood University Woods Center for Arts and Education, 6201 Mineral Point Road, on Madison's far west side, not far from West Towne Mall.
The group writes:
"Join the Oakwood Chamber Players on our 2017-2018 season journey with composers whose music encompasses the animation and anticipation at departure and beyond. We'll have something for adventure seekers as they consider the view over the ever-expanding horizon.
"We'll stop over to stay a while with friends and see the future with those who forever influence the musical landscape. We will welcome both familiar and new faces as guest artists this season. Come along with us on the JOURNEY!"

So, I've been implementing organizational schemes for my life since last year. I've been reading books, blogs and articles about productivity, minimalism, simplicity, organization, habits and so on. And here are some thoughts about how it all started…
And then I started working. Like, a real job. The first job. And it was good, I could happily use my skills, for it involved quality management standards applied to civil construction, quantitative surveys and cost estimates. And then life goes on, I jumped into a (supposedly) better job, and then there was crisis, and I ended up working to a governmental autarchy. And that's when things started to get weird, I guess. But it took me some time to realize the change. Governments exist with bureaucracy, lots of it, Like Vogons, you know? The galactic government's bureaucrats in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series by Douglas Adams. Same thing in real life.
(Curious fact: illustrations by James Gillray inspired the appearance of the Vogons in the film based on Douglas Adams' series)
Well, five years working with Vogons is kinda scary. If you attempt to change something in the process, a little thing, some minor detail that could get things a little bit better, there are tons of hindrances and obstacles. The attempts become increasingly tiresome. And that's sad, because people eventually stop trying. And get used to chaos. Well, inefficient and unproductive kind of chaos, that is. (There are some few productive chaos…)

Fuel flow rate through an injector is affected by a number of different things. This page focuses on the effects of the ECU's internal driver circuitry. Differences in design can influence how an injector responds. This adds yet another layer of difficulty to getting usable numbers from an injector testing service. If they're not using the same driver circuitry as you're using, then the numbers (primarily deadtime) aren't going to mean much to you.
Unless your injectors are being flow tested using the exact same drivers as are found inside your ECU, you can expect to see different behavior (primarily deadtime) when installed inside your car. One would expect differences in behavior when comparing drivers as different from each other as a 4/1 peak-hold vs. saturation style driver, but even drivers of the same "style" can produce significantly different results just from varying component selections in the circuit design.
We've measured a good 100-200 usec difference in deadtime comparing EVO8 and DSM (pre-98) drivers, for example. The exact difference depends on the combination of injector and ECU driver implementation.

Pillars of Eternity Will Not Release in the Spring; a New Date Has Not Been Announced
Just like life not everything will go according to plan, game release dates included. Obsidian Entertainment's Pillars of Eternity's release date has been delayed due the massive size of the project.
Project Lead Josh Sawyer told Eurogamer, that because of the crowd-funding campaign's massive success, the game had to be extremely expanded after raising $3.9 million in October 2012.
It's understandable that people don't know this, but when you start a Kickstarter, once it goes live, you can't change that [estimated release] date. You're not allowed to change to that date. We got almost four-times as much money and that's a much bigger game, and that doesn't mean that immediately we just dump four-times as many people on it and it also gets done in April. There's a lot more stuff to do.
Currently the game is more than fifty percent finished in the "alpha state" but a new release date will not be announced until the game's completion. When it is completed the game will release Steam Early Access first.

An article in the Woman's World column written by Ethelwyn Wetherald under the pseudonym Bel Thistlethwaite. The article discusses the role of women once married and no longer a wage-earner. She states "Every feminine wage-earner is worthy of honor, but the work of not one is worthy to be compared in importance with the work of that noblest and greatest of all the world's workers - the loving, loyal wife and mother. In her hands is the destiny of her children, and in their hands is the destiny of the nation. All honor be to her! All honor - and a little ready money!"

Your New Assembly Job Starts Right Here!
Assembler jobs and fabricator jobs involve assembling parts to produce components and/or final products. Assembly workers use tools, machines, and their hands to make engines, computers, aircraft, ships, boats, toys, electronic devices, control panels, and many other types of finished product.
Assembler job duties include preparing work to be completed by studying assembly instructions, blueprint specifications, and parts lists. The assembler will gather the required parts, subassemblies, tools, and materials, and position them by using templates or reading measurements. While assembling components, the assembler will examine connections for correct fit and verify that specifications are being met by measuring completed components. The assembler may be required to resolve assembly problems by altering dimensions and/or notifying a supervisor to obtain additional resources. In many cases, the assembler is expected to keep equipment operational by completing preventive maintenance, calling for repairs, and generally maintaining a safe and clean work environment by following procedures, rules, and regulations. The assembler may also maintain supplies and inventory by checking stock, anticipating needed supplies, and placing, expediting, and verifying orders.
Assembly workers are generally expected to have specific expertise in controls and instrumentation, equipment maintenance, manufacturing, quality assurance, mechanical inspection, safety management, and other areas. Sought after traits in this field of endeavor include good judgment, effective decision making, and an overall focus on quality.

Meaning : Combination Of Van And Esther, N/A, Combination of Van and Esther, Used in England and Germany, Vanessa was created by the Irish poet, Jonathon Swift (1667 - 1745) as a nickname for his lover Esther Vanhomrigh.,
Origin : Portuguese, Latin, Italian, German, Dutch, English,
Pronunciation : van ESS er, və-NES-ə (English) , (VahNEHSah),
If you have information about this name, share it in the comments area below!
Numerology information Vanessa:
Name Number: 9 Meaning: Divine, God, Goodness, Truth, Unconditional love, Gift, Free will, Ideal, Whole, Endless
Additional information Vanessa:
Invented by the poet Jonathan Swift for his friend Esther Van Homrigh.
The name Vanessa was invented by an 18th century poet Jonathan Swift. Writing to his friend Esther Vanhomrigh, he coined a pet name by taking parts from both names and creating Vanessa. The name was set free in his poems 'Cadenus and Vanessa' released in 1713. Swift's creation has remained prominent, buoyed by famous bearers that include Vanessa Hudgens (actress/singer), Vanessa Redgrave (actress) and Vanessa Carlton (singer).
Greek Meaning: The name Vanessa is a Greek baby name. In Greek the meaning of the name Vanessa is: Butterfly. Also, from Phanessa, the mystic goddess of an ancient Greek brotherhood.

How can you not love a name that's also a butterfly species? Even though it's very much an '80s artifact, the sheer prettiness of this name keeps it from being a one-decade wonder (or even falling that far from its peak). Interestingly, Vanessa's actually one of the original made-up names. Author Jonathan Swift created it for a poem in 1726 by playing with the letters in his friend Esther Vanhomrigh's name. (No, we're not holding a grudge. It's a lovely name and that's that.)
Invented by author Jonathan Swift for his poem 'Cadenus and Vanessa' (1726). He arrived at it by rearranging the initial syllables of the first name and surname of Esther Vanhomrigh, his close friend. Vanessa was later used as the name of a genus of butterfly. It was a rare given name until the mid-20th century, at which point it became fairly popular.

In Ohio, the Social Security Disability Insurance Program (SSDI) was paying benefits to 378,923 individuals in 2012, or about 5.3 percent of the state's population at the time. This is higher than the national average of 4.7 percent, and not surprising, given the significant history of industrial jobs, like heavy manufacturing and coal mining, in the state.
After fatal workplace accident, plant is hit with huge fine
Pilkington, a company that is based out of Toledo, Ohio, had a worker die in one of its glass plants in 2010. The plant in question was in Indiana, and the worker was crushed by machinery, leading to his death. The Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration inspected the plant at that point, found a number of safety violations and asked that they be fixed.
SSDI growth appears to have stabilized
As many of our Ohio clients know, the process to obtain Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) benefits is anything but straightforward. The complicated application requires a great deal of information concerning a worker's disability, with supporting medical documentation and additional information concerning their work experience and educational history.
1 man killed in construction accident, jury finds company liable
If you're hurt at work or have lost a loved one due to a workplace accident, then you may be familiar with the legal process that surrounds the case. In a wrongful death case, you may be able to seek compensation for medical bills, funeral costs, and other things, and workers' compensation should be available to you, like it should have been to this family of a man who was killed when inspecting roadway construction.
SSA has another backlog
Congressional hearings this month again raised the question of how the Social Security Administration (SSA) is conducting its reviews of Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) benefit payments. According to the hearings, the SSA currently has a backlog of 1.3 million reviews that it needs to conduct.
Ohio educator left with injuries after armed-assault drill
No matter how it happens, an injury at work is still the responsibility of your employer. If you fall on unmarked wet floors, hit your head on unmarked low ceilings, or cut yourself on dangerous equipment, you deserve to get the medical treatment you need and the pay you deserve for your on the job injuries. You might not yet have heard about this story of a teacher in Boardman, but you may be able to understand his plight.
Simple errors can stop SSDI payments
When you apply for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits, you have to complete a complex application form to submit to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The application allows you the opportunity to provide evidence to the SSA that will support your award of SSDI benefits.
Woman's legal and deserved Social Security denied
How would you feel if you found out that you couldn't get Social Security Benefits because someone has claimed that you're already receiving workers' compensation in Ohio? The two shouldn't be exclusive, but in this woman's case, she was denied for her Social Security Disability benefits because the office believed she was getting reparations from workers' comp. According to the April 2 report, the woman visited the Social Security Administration office to ask why her Social Security Benefits weren't arriving on the fourth Wednesday of the month as usual.

Sperm is not just a biological material for conceiving a child. In the modern world, it can be used in various ways. Many people are interested in sperm's taste, and some cosmetics manufacturers even add sperm to cosmetic products. In this article, we will tell you about some amazing facts that you might not have known before.
What does semen taste like? Usually, the sperm has a slightly salty taste. However, a diet can affect the taste of this human fluid:
1) Bitter – consumption of alcohol, coffee and caffeine-containing products (this taste can also be caused by various urogenital infections);
2) Sharp – chocolate, dairy products, pork, beef, asparagus, etc.;
3) Mild – consumption of fruits (especially pineapple), vegetarian diet;
4) Sweetish – consumption of naturally fermented drinks (also the sweet taste of sperm can be a sign of diabetes or pre-diabetic condition).
Interestingly, there is a product that is designed to improve the taste of sperm. It's called Semenex. This product ("pure vegetarian powder") has the taste of a pumpkin pie and contains concentrated extracts of pineapple, celery, broccoli, banana, and strawberries, as well as important vitamins and minerals.
Sperm as an antidepressant
Women who suffer from depression know that this condition can be very debilitating. The use of antidepressants does not always help, and in addition, these drugs can cause serious side effects, as well as psychological and physiological addiction. Fortunately, there is an alternative solution to swallowing tablets. According to one study (Gallup GG Jr, Burch RL, Platek SM, 2002), unprotected sex can fight depression.
The study has shown that women who do not use condoms during intercourse experience fewer signs of depression than those who have sex with a condom. The researchers suggest that the vagina absorbs a number of components from the sperm, including mood-altering compounds such as endorphins and oxytocin. The study has shown that these components can be detected in the bloodstream several hours after the end of the sexual intercourse. In addition, the absorption of oxytocin creates a stronger bond between partners and promotes better interpersonal communication, which can significantly reduce stress and depressive tendencies.
However, this does not mean that you do not need to use condoms. Gallup GG Jr, one of the scientists who participated in the study, says that his team of scientists does not advocate refraining from using condoms. Obviously, an unwanted pregnancy or venereal disease will become too much for the favorable psychological effects of sperm. Therefore, being engaged in unprotected sex is desirable only for those who have a regular partner and want to conceive a child.
Sperm as a cosmetic product
In the recently conducted study, it has been found that semen contains a component called spermine, which has powerful antioxidant properties and can delay aging. It also helps to smooth wrinkles. In this regard, some companies have produced face creams, including spermine. Creams are sold for several hundred dollars per jar in expensive spa salons around the world. They have already become popular with some celebrities, such as Heather Locklear. Manufacturers of these creams say that semen is processed before the production of creams and is saturated with aromatic substances. This is done to improve its fragrance and get rid of any unwanted viruses.
The industry of cosmetic products for hair care has not remained on the sidelines of the trend to add sperm to various products. After the use of a hair conditioner made from the broth of bovine testes caused a sensation in a Los Angeles salon, the most fashionable salons in America and the UK hurried to release their own hair cosmetic products based on sperm for customers. Clients claim that the sperm of the bull restores their dry, damaged locks, and also makes them thicker and more elastic. Hairdressers say that the positive effect of bull sperm on the hair is due to the high protein content.
On our site, you can find various information related to men's health and sperm. For example, you can find out how to increase sperm count, how to improve its quality and much more.

Welcome to Cancer be Glammed.
For women who want to stay stylish (dare we say hip?) pampered, and informed during cancer treatment and recovery.
Cancer be Glammed was born from the concept that a cancer diagnosis shouldn't mean you have to sacrifice style, comfort, and, most importantly, your self-esteem.
We could rant about Lisa's breast cancer or Ellen's chemotherapy to fight a rare blood disorder, but we would rather dish about something more uplifting (and we don't mean Lisa's mastectomy bra!)
We don't know about you but we were unprepared for the side effects surgery and treatment would bring nor did we know where to find clothing and products to recover in comfort and style.
We created the Cancer be Glammed e-boutique to provide easy on-line access to post- op apparel, fashion finds, pampering products, unique gifts and more… Here on our blog, we will share our own tips & advice along with recommendations and expert opinions from members of the Cancer be Glammed Crew.
ALSO…We want to hear from you!
Leave a COMMENT (below) to tell us about your "must have" products that kept (or keep you) feeling good and glammed during your ride on the cancer rollercoaster!
Lisa will get the blog rolling.
Lisa: If you are like me and have been put into menopause from your treatment, (chemo-pause as I like to say) it's hot flash central! I constantly cycle between being too hot, breaking sweats, (yuck- not very glam) and being cold. To combat this I recommend dressing in layers.
For starters I prefer all shirts with breathability (like cotton), or ones that are made from a wicking material. Wicking materials draw moisture away from your skin and into the fabric to keep you dry. This material can be found in camisoles and bras, sportswear and now, even in sleepwear.
Hot Flash Nightie & PJ's
For warmth (when the hot flash turns into a "cold" flash) I reach for my pashmina or wrap shawl (very fashionable.) Makes a great alternative to your old beloved cardigan!

Fate of Zinc and Silver Engineered Nanoparticles in Sewerage Networks
Brunetti, G., E. Donner, G. Laera, R. Sekine, K. Scheckel, M. Khaksar, K. Vasilev, G. De Mastro, AND E. Lombi. Fate of Zinc and Silver Engineered Nanoparticles in Sewerage Networks. Mark van Loosdrecht (ed.), WATER RESEARCH. Elsevier Science Ltd, New York, NY, 77:72-84, (2015).
The rapid commercialisation of nanotechnology over the last decade has raised concerns about the potential environmental consequences of engineered nanoparticles used in consumer products. Silver (Ag) and zinc oxide (ZnO) are among the most common engineered nanoparticles used in this manner. For instance, nearly a quarter of the more than 1600 consumer products containing nanomaterials listed by the Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies (2013) claim to contain Ag nanomaterials, and it is reported that up to 500 tons/year of Ag nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are produced and used worldwide (Gottschalk et al., 2009; Sun et al. 2014). Silver nanomaterials are widely used as antibacterial and antifungal agents in a large variety of consumer products, as well as in food technology, textiles/fabrics, and medical products and devices. In the case of nanoscale ZnO, the estimated worldwide production in 2011 was greater than 33,400 tons/year (Future Markets Inc, 2012). Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are mainly used as active ingredients in sunscreens and as industrial coatings to protect plastics, wood and textiles from UV exposure and microbial degradation, and they are also used in photoprinting and as thin conductive films in household appliances and solar cells (Lamb et al. 2004; Mu and Sprando, 2010). The aim of this study was to investigate the transformations that can occur in the sewer before Ag- and ZnO-NPs reach WWTPs. To this end, a lab-scale sewerage system was set up and operated for 3 months (to establish biofilm) prior to spiking with Ag-NPs and ZnO-NPs for 3 consecutive days. A control system was run in parallel using equivalent amounts of Ag and Zn spiked in dissolved forms instead of as NPs.
Engineered zinc oxide (ZnO) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) used in consumer products are largely released into the environment through the wastewater stream. Limited information is available regarding the transformations they undergo during their transit through sewerage systems before reaching wastewater treatment plants. To address this knowledge gap, laboratory-scale systems fed with raw wastewater were used to evaluate the transformation of ZnO- and Ag-NPs within sewerage transfer networks. Two experimental systems were established and spiked with either Ag- and ZnO-NPs or with their dissolved salts, and the wastewater influent and effluent samples from both systems were thoroughly characterised. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was used to assess the extent of the chemical transformation of both forms of Zn and Ag during transport through the model systems. The results indicated that both ZnO- and Ag-NPs underwent significant transformation during their transport through the sewerage network. Reduced sulphur species represented the most important endpoint for these NPs in the sewer with slight differences in terms of speciation; ZnO converted largely to Zn sulfide, while Ag was also sorbed to cysteine and histidine. Importantly, both ionic Ag and Ag-NPs formed secondary Ag sulfide nanoparticles in the sewerage network as revealed by TEM analysis. Ag-cysteine was also shown to be a major species in biofilms. These results were verified in the field using recently developed nanoparticle in situ deployment devices (nIDDs) which were exposed directly to sewerage network conditions by immersing them into a municipal wastewater network trunk sewer and then retrieving them for XAS analysis.

George Bixby // Professor: Zachary Lieberman
For my final project I concentrated on typography. I combined particle-to-particle interaction and type, and hope to use this as the basis for some interactive type pieces. Below are three version of this code.
(c) Besides evidence to the contrary, particles don't have to be just circles! you can draw them however you want. Can you create an interesting effect with transparency or by using images? Can you use parameters, like velocity to control the way these objects are drawn (like, they get smaller as they slow down, or more transparent, using angle of the velocity to rotate, etc). Think about trying to create a natural phenomenon or make something really nice looking.
(d) Hook up the drawing code (from the lissajous example) to a particle so that the particle draws a trail of where it has been. see if you can make this trail fade out (like a comet) Use alpha or some other method.
(e) Make a funky, expressive drawing tool with particles.
a) make a composition using the animation techniques that is a tribute to john whitney:
c) try to use sin and cos to emulate a natural phenomenon
For this assignement I took the video of the branch I took in week one, and tried to animate one of its key movement. I attempted to capture the way the branch moved in a circlur motion around its base in response to the wind, and how the smaller branches at the tips also did so but at a different rates.
d) extend the xeno / atan2 code, making a creature which follows the mouse.
This is the begining of a creature that breaths when stationary, breaths faster when moving, and has a tail.
Animation Experiment:
a) fastest non-moving speed
b) fastest still perceptible speed
c) click to change pta and ptb
d) shaper controlls something else besides position
e) multiple xenos
Part 1: Create a Flip Book Animation
Part 2: Mapping Movement
For the second part of the assignment, we were asked to video tape a few instances of movement, and create a drawing which of some aspect of the movement.
In this first video, I watched a tree branch being blown around by the wind. I followed the point of the main branch, which moved both in spirals and back in forth around its base.
Here is the drawing I made of the movement:
In the second video, I watched steam escaping from a tea kettle. It was hard to read exactly what it was doing, but it seemed to generally spiral out of the spout.
Here is the drawing I made of the movement:
In the third video, I watched some pigeons as they walked by. I tried to map the point of each of their beaks. When they walk they move their necks back and forth drastically, which accounts for the overall zigzag pattern. They also frequently peck at food on the ground, which is visualized by the sporadic vertical marks.
Part 3: Drawing My Name In openFrameworks
This was the first time I've touched openFrameworks, so it took me some time to get it up and running. Once I finally did, I decided to keep it simple and map out my name using line segments.
Here is a screen shot of the code being run:
Here is a screenshot of the code (I will upload actual code tomorrow):

Together, we can help people find a safe home
As lockdown eases and we all adjust to the new normal, it's more important than ever to have a safe place to call home. But for so many, from the people stuck living in unsafe conditions putting their loved ones at risk to those with no choice but to sleep on the streets, that just isn't reality.
Our staff continue to work tirelessly to answer the increasing number of calls we're receiving from people in need of our help. And they've seen it all – from children forced to live away from their parents due to their poor housing to people sleeping in tents and cars because there's just nowhere else to go.
But it doesn't have to be this way. Join the fight against homelessness and help us be there for everyone who needs our help.
Homelessness can happen to anyone
When Shelter adviser Laura picked up a call from a 20-year-old university student undergoing chemotherapy, she was shocked to hear that the council did not treat him as a priority. His condition meant that his student accommodation was unsafe, and without a stable home, he couldn't get the help he desperately needed.
Even though he had read up on his rights, Laura's support was invaluable. The two worked together, contacting the council until they understood his needs and gave him priority status.
The support Laura and her colleagues are able to give to people facing homelessness is crucial. It can be the difference between having a safe place to call home or sleeping on the streets. Please give what you can to help us continue our vital work and help bring an end to homelessness.
Your donation will be used where it is most needed to help people struggling with bad housing and homelessness. This means it may not just be used to fund our COVID-19 response, but could support any of our important work.
It was sad for me to see someone so young, who has been through so much, have to manoeuvre and struggle through the homelessness process. I was glad to be able to support him.
Our Vision
We strive every day to give people the help they need, and we campaign relentlessly to achieve our vision of a safe, secure, affordable home for everyone.
How we help
No-one needs to face bad housing or homelessness alone. Last year over 5 million people turned to Shelter for advice.
Phone advice
unique callers to our helpline each week
Our free national helpline is available 365 days a year and provides expert housing advice to anyone struggling with problems related to housing and homelessness.
Personal advice
of people who sought help with their financial situation saw an improvement
We have advice centres up and down the country so people can get face-to-face support from one of our housing experts.
Online advice
people sought help through our live chat advice last year
Our website provides over 400 pages of advice on housing, homelessness and related issues - featuring videos, audio guides and other tools to help give straight-forward support. In 2015 we launched a live chat advice service, offering real-time online help from our trained advisers.
How your money is spent
For every £1 you donate, 79p goes towards helping people struggling with bad housing and homelessness.
- 79% spent on helping people through advice, support and campaigning
- 21% spent on fundraising

Those who are familiar with Metro know that each year we hold a toy drive for children in need. Tony's Metro Magicis named in honor of our late editor-in-chief, Tony Metcalf, who passed away from cancer in July. Tony loved the annual Metro Magic toy drive and the positive impact in had on our local children.
We have been receiving amazing letters from these children, and this year we are sharing some of them with our readers.
Several kids have requested toys for people other than themselves, like their mothers — a heartwarming act of selflessness.
Take a look at these letters and see how special these kids are.
You can learn more about Tony's Metro Magichere. If you are interested in making a child's Christmas wishes come true, you can visit our Toys 'R' Us wish list links below.

Sports Team is a British project from Harlesden (west London) with influences of bands as Pavement and The Family Cat. Winter Nets is the debut EP that is out via Nice Swan Records in January 2018. We already shared "Stanton" ; "Beverly Rose" is a new excerpt. Their words about it:
"Beverly Rose came out of commuter-belt England. Britain in Bloom displays on roundabouts. Mock-Tudor semis. Flower beds. The horse-meat scandal. Tired European stereotypes. The red-top trope of talking about how hot it is compared to foreign capitals."

Phase I of the University's much-anticipated redesigned website launches on Monday, August 1, when some 60 of the University's highest-traffic sites will debut a brand new look. The web redesign project includes both a new look for the website as well as a new content management system (CMS). The new CMS, Cascade Server, was installed last spring and will ultimately replace Sherpa for all content management on UP's main website, up.edu. More than 100 superusers have been trained in the new system.
The redesign process included focus groups with representatives from all departments on campus, one-on-one interviews with key stakeholders, and surveys of faculty, staff, students, prospective students, parents, alumni, and donors. The site was designed with a "mobile-first" strategy. Currently about half of the University's web site traffic comes from mobile devices; numbers are even higher for sites that cater to prospective students.
Phase II of the web redesign includes a new look for the online campus directory and improved individual pages for faculty and staff to personalize with information about their professional experience, interests, and activities. The new directory will launch in October.
Phase III includes the transition of the remaining 40 sites to Cascade Server. They will roll over to the new site throughout the fall.
