Scott Joplin & the acquisition of skills
— 3rd September 2014
I grew up in a house where the children were forced to have piano lessons (call me middle class if you will, it would be an accurate and wholly justified thing to do). I didn't really take to the lessons mainly because I never practised. I passed the Grade 1 exam but before long the whole thing fell away.
A little later though we acquired a book with the sheet music to a number of Scott Jopin's tunes. If you don't know Joplin he wrote "ragtime" which is a kind of mild piano-based early form of jazz. More importantly though it was a Scott Joplin tune that was used as the theme music for the Pot Black TV Snooker show and it was both a fun tune and quite impressive.
So with those two things in mind I set out attempting to teach myself to play the tune (UPDATE: actually it wasn't the Pot Black theme but another tune called The Entertainer which was also used on TV quite a lot at the time). My Dad did too if I remember rightly and so we both kind of helped and encouraged each other. It took a long long time and there was a lot of the music which we simply missed out (i.e. we found we could get a good approximation of the sound without playing full chords in the accompanying left hand) but eventually we got to the point where we could both bash out a fairly recognisable version of the tune. And this we did over and over and over.
In some ways this was a bit of a peculiar situation. My Dad I remember could play a few things on the piano but apart from the dross I'd be encouraged to play in lessons I couldn't really play anything else. Certainly nothing that was a fun to play or gave me anything like the sense of achievement and satisfaction I got from clumping my way through this. What was so satisfying I think was the memory of how impossible the thing had seemed at the beginning. Just looking up to the snow-capped peaks of it and thinking "I'll never get there". I mean, I hadn't totally got there but getting even close was a great feeling.
Unfortunately, it having taken so long and been such a slog to get there, I never really fancied starting at the bottom and learning another, and so apart from a bit of dabbling and then concentrating on understanding music instead of gaining playing skill, I ended up not really being a piano player. What I did come away with was the general impression that if I wanted to, and gave it enough time, I could probably learn to play a lot of things on a piano and more than likely the same could be said of similar skills-based activities.
I think that it was the first time I'd really internalised the importance (the primacy) of hard work in any kind of achievement and the possibility that time and effort (and not innate skill) was all that was needed. There had been things before this I'd found myself to be good at (football predominantly) but hadn't really thought about how that had happened. It now struck me that possibly those endless hours in the back garden kicking a ball against a wall might have had something to do with it. I wondered what my friends might have been doing whilst I'd been doing that. It gave me a different perspective.
I think about all this now because it's these kind of lessons I want my kids to learn. It's hard because the only way to learn it is through experience and it's almost impossible to engineer. But thinking about how I came to understand stuff like this is sometimes useful. Maybe just to keep it in mind when opportunities to give my kids opportunities arise.
The American TV Show Yo Gabba Gabba included a song in which the lyrics went "keep on trying, keep on trying, never give up, never give up". It has become a kind of tradition in our house that if someone is obviously throwing up their hands and walking away from a thing we sing it to them. It's an incredibly annoying song, and incredibly annoying to have it sung to you in those situations. Still every little helps.

Women in Hospitality United, or WiHU, is a female founded organization that's revolutionizing the hospitality industry. Created by Elizabeth Meltz, Erin Fairbanks and Liz Murray, they strive to challenge industry norms and provide women throughout the country with solutions to combat harassment and sexism. They've built a community where women are empowered to talk about the issues that they've faced and learn from each another so that they can find ways to make sure future generations of women don't fall victim to the same cycle of inequality that has plagued this industry.
We were lucky enough to chat with Erin Fairbanks about the mission behind WiHU and what their organization is doing to create change in an industry that's largely male-dominated. Not only were we impressed by the growth of their organization in such a short period of time but also by Erin's passion for the work that she does and her commitment to reinventing how both men and women see the workplace.
How did you and your co-founders get into the hospitality industry? Elizabeth, Liz and myself have all made our way through a variety of positions in the industry. Elizabeth and I started as line cooks, her at Aureole and then Del Posto, myself at Savoy and then Gramercy Tavern. I went on to launch Farm Camp at Flying Pigs Farm and then joined Heritage Radio Network as its first Executive Director. Elizabeth created a department of food safety and sustainability for B&B Hospitality and now leads that program for Dig Inn. Liz got her start bartending in Mexico and as an expeditor at Dover and then managed people operations for Gramercy Tavern. She is now the Director of HR and Communications for the Marlow Collective.
How did WiHU start? In the fall of 2017, frustrated and outraged by the rash of #MeToo allegations across the restaurant industry, Elizabeth sent out an email to 100+ women in hospitality. She and I organized a meeting and committed to hosting this group of industry stakeholders who could advance women-lead solutions. WiHU is an opt-in organization. To really be a part of what we're creating, individuals need to show up and put in the work. We connected with our third co-founder, Liz Murray, at the second WiHU meeting. It was Liz's strong encouragement that lead to the formalizing of WiHU as a stand-alone entity.
What is the mission behind WiHU? Our mission is multifaceted. We work to build community by creating safer spaces to gather. We look for opportunities to foster leadership and champion the equitable advancement of all people through connection, mentorship, and resource sharing. We empower our members by providing tools, training, advocacy, and support. Collectively our goal is to develop solutions and provide policies that set new standards for equity, accountability, and transparency in the industry.
Why did you feel there was a need for change in the hospitality industry? The #MeToo movement succeeded in shining a light on a long-accepted culture of harassment in the hospitality industry. We learned at the Solution Sprint (our signature event) that the challenge for our industry moving forward would be recognizing that you cannot effectively solve for harassment issues in a vacuum. To achieve true cultural change, the conversations around solutions must include a substantive look at the system's shortcoming as related to: race, income distribution, access to resources, and power dynamics. We truly feel harassment is a symptom of the greater power imbalances that exist. We are working to dismantle and rebuild a a safer and more equitable industry.
What actions does your organization currently take to create that change? As a new non-profit we are working toward a vision of the future where WiHU training and consulting modules will be recognized as "must haves" for enlightened operators. We see WiHubs operating across the country, in partnership with other local or national groups, providing mentorship resources, creating region-specific best practice solutions, and acting as checks and balances for local hospitality communities.
We see the Solution Sprint happening across geographies, industry verticals, and being used as a mechanism for businesses to advance change. We anticipate a multitude of cross-sector and cross-industry partnerships designed to advance women of all races and orientations as we work toward achieving equity across all aspects of the hospitality industry. We see WiHU as the rocket fuel accelerating this change.
Our aim is to be a fiscally sound, thriving organization operating at a national level to serve the hospitality industry by developing solutions and providing policies that set new standards for equity, accountability, and transparency in the industry.
Our focus areas for 2019 include:
- The launch of a dynamic membership model that provides our community with an online network of supporters and access to tools, trainings and events while growing our national footprint.
- Bringing our signature offering, the Solution Sprint, to conferences across the country to drive community-led solutions.
- Building out our board of directors and advisors and working to lay the strategic and financial framework to ensure the long term success of our work.
Why did this desire for change speak to you personally? I have long been dedicated to equity building through convening and experiential education. My work with WiHU is a natural extension of these efforts and a reflection of my personal north star–a vision of a future where all individuals, regardless of race or gender are able to thrive and bring their whole selves to work. You can learn more about my personal work history here.
What is the most challenging part of your work with WiHU? It's important to remember that the change we are building toward is something that will happen on a generational timeline. We are in a marathon, not a sprint. And it's tough because the work feels incredibly urgent. We want to move toward change as quickly as possible but ultimately, to build a truly inclusive organization, we need to focus on listening, moving slowly and trusting the wisdom and insights of our members. I truly believe our industry has the the talent and desire to create the change that we envision.
What is the most rewarding part of your work with WiHU? I love hearing directly from our members about how our work has impacted them. Notes like this one from Chef Meika Johnson in Houston, Texas really keep me going. " You guys and the connections I've made through you guys have been such an inspiration to me. From the bottom of my heart thank you!!❤"

DAMASCUS, Syria, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- Syria's attorney general announced in a video statement posted on the Internet he was resigning after witnessing a mass execution of 72 prisoners.
In the video posted Wednesday, the man presumed to be Adnan Bakkour, Syria's top legal official, said he was resigning because of President Bashar Assad's regime "and his gangs," the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported.
The state-run news agency reported Monday rebel gunmen kidnapped Bakkour as he was traveling to Hama for work.
However, the government-backed Syrian Arab News Agency quoted a government official as saying Bakkour's statements broadcast by the al-Jazeera satellite channel and elsewhere were false.
The official accused al-Jazeera of spreading lies perpetrated by the terrorists who kidnapped the attorney general and forced him to make the false statements at gunpoint.
SANA reported the official as saying al-Jazeera "started to adopt this style with the aim of undermining the sovereignty of Syria and its people."
In the video, Bakkour said he witnessed 72 prisoners at Hama's central prison executed July 31, the Telegraph said.
He also said 420 bodies were buried in mass graves in public parks,10,000 peaceful protesters are being held in prisons and 320 prisoners died after being tortured.
Bakkour charged Assad forces buried people alive by destroying homes in Hama with people inside.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights Wednesday said 473 Syrians were killed in anti-government protests during the just-ended Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Human rights groups said more than 2,200 Syrians have been killed since Assad began his brutal crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators in March.
Meanwhile, government troops raided homes in Homs, Hama and Houla, making arrests as they surged for protesters seeking Assad's ouster, the Telegraph reported. Government troops were reportedly threatening to arrest relatives of activists unless they surrendered.

After the Expressionz in Tun Razak , Exsim another project in Bukit Ceylon near the KLCC area. The site previously is by St John Woods Residence for big size unit. After take over by Exsim, it will be like studio unit. As we can see bukit Ceylon studio unit is more easy to rent out and for sales. Like verticas with very big unit actually very difficult to rent out and also hard for sale in the future.
I am die hard fan of Exsim hope the price still maintain reasonable in the area. The market in bukit Ceylon the most expensive is One Bukit Ceylon RM 1500 psf, the rest condo all around RM 800 – RM 1100 psf. So I hope the selling price can be range in between RM 1300 – RM 1400 psf.

Is it still raining out? I don't know. It was raining when I came home about an hour ago. I had plans. I was to read what happened to Muhammad Tughlaq. I was to plan for a tentative visit to a monument on Sunday.
I did nothing. I started computer, played Mannipaaya, browsed through Facebook, etc., and again played Mannipaaya.
It seems like the rain has stopped now. Shall I get up and go out instead of just sitting here and missing you?

August 2015 has been a record month for attendance in both worship and Bible Study at First Baptist Church.
This is good news, and we are grateful to see many people interested in the things of God.
Why is this good news? Because "We exist to help people know and accept Jesus Christ and through Him experience life-changing relationships." Our purpose statement demands that we seek to take the message of Christ to our community.
So does Jesus' Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19).
So, an increased number of people seeking the things of God is good news.
In the month of August we have averaged 1540 in our weekend Bible Studies and almost 2250 in total attendance for our worship services. The last two weeks we have had over 1600 people in Bible Study classes with one-half in our preschool, children, and youth classes!
We want to reach this youngest generation for Christ. We give thanks we are having the opportunity to do so.
This is the good news. What about the challenges?
These are the challenges we face when we move to a new level.
First, we need leaders. We need people to teach the youngest generation (Generation Z). We have this one, brief opportunity to share Christ with young, eager minds. Let us take on the challenge.
We need leaders who are servants–people who recognize they have the privilege to lead the next generation and to make a difference in their lives.
Second, we need examples. We all learn better when we see and experience what is being taught. As we see what a life in Christ is like, we are equipped to live our own life in Christ.
As God has blessed us with opportunity as a church, let us give our best for Christ. "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked" (Luke 12:48).

Turning to popular voices, I went through several of the new Mobile Fidelity reissues of classic Sinatra, starting with Sinatra at the Sands. Hardly a great recording qua recording, it nevertheless does capture Sinatra at the peak of the Reprise years in a nightclub setting, the focus on the voice razor-sharp but still very attractive in a flesh-and-blood way, even if far too close up to be "realistic" (as with most live recordings in clubs, the perspectives are weird, with the audience appearing behind the performer). But so beautifully does the Andros reproduce The Voice that it's easy to forget about all that audiophile stuff and just enjoy Sinatra, who is in great form even if the instrument is obviously no longer in the shape it was ten years earlier at Capitol (compare this "Angel Eyes" to the one on Only the Lonely).
A different baritone in Belafonte at Carnegie Hall [Classic Records reissue], that legendary voice at once husky and honeyed, likewise beautifully clean, clear, present, and superbly projected. The same for Julie London in Boxstar's superlative reissue of Julie Is Her Name, reproduced with all the purity of pitch for which she is renowned. Soon I found myself bringing out records I hadn't heard in much too long a time and wondering why I hadn't: Growing Up in Hollywood Town, for example, Amanda McBroom's first outing for Sheffield. I had all but forgotten the fantastic presence and immediacy of these direct-to-discs, to say nothing of their wide dynamic envelope (try the opening of "Amanda"). I was lucky enough once to hear McBroom at or near her prime in a small club in Santa Monica, doing her heart-wrenching "The Portrait," the first cut on this Sheffield. Rarely have I heard a singer lay herself out so openly, with such raw and unflinching emotion. I've replayed that performance—more intense than the one on this Sheffield—in the theatre of my mind many times, but the recorded rendition is certainly intense enough so as not to suffer in the comparison.
Voices to instruments and Ben Webster's glorious "How Long Has This Been Going On?" from the classic Ben and Sweets [Classic Records reissue], the same adjectives keep cropping up: smooth, velvety, yet Webster's tenor sax still big, expansive, and voluptuous. Another sax, Sonny Rollins' on Way Out West [Acoustic Sounds reissue], is vibrantly present. You could argue that the Andros is maybe a little too smooth here, because even when Rollins is relaxed and enjoying himself, as on this album, he's still got a bit of bite to his tone, and so it is through the PS1, if ever so slightly ma non troppo. But turn to the Juilliard's great sixties album of the Bartók quartets and you'll find the Third reproduced with all the severity and acidity of tone for which this thorny piece is either famous or notorious. And despite the closeness of the recording, it nevertheless opens out with a surprising bloom and, perhaps owing to its very closeness, puts the performers in the room rather startlingly (especially if you get the playback levels just right, which doesn't necessarily mean very loud). Regis Pasquier's violin in his Harmonia Mundi set of the Bach Unaccompanied Partitas and Sonatas has the requisite warmth of tone and, where called for, brilliance.
If it seems that I have been talking mostly about the music and relatively little about the component, then you are on to my strategy. I've rarely auditioned a piece of equipment that has from the get-go made it harder for me to stay in reviewer mode as opposed to just plain music lover mode, causing me to scribble fewer (illegible) notes than I have in I can't remember when. And I must confess that no one could be more surprised than myself by this, because, to put it frankly, I do not quite "get" the use of tubes for amplifying very low-level signals such as those from low-output moving coils. I make this admission not to my credit, only to put my bias out there as a context for my enthusiasm.
The Andros is the first product from Zesto Audio, a new firm, based in Southern California, owned by George and Carolyn Counnas. George grew up in Great Britain where as a young man he designed vacuum-tube circuits and worked for DECCA Navigator, one of Britain's largest electronics companies, as part of a research and development team designing airborne navigational systems for the Royal Air Force. But music was an abiding passion and he long wanted to design his own products, electing to begin with a phonostage. Despite what he freely acknowledges as the many advantages of digital, vinyl long ago won and still holds his heart. The same is true for vacuum-tube technology. "I started doing research on past phonostage designs going back to the original RCA circuits of the 1930s," he says.

On April 3, 2012, shortly after dinner, a beautiful, curious two-year-old little girl named Chance was playing around in her house. While running back and forth between bedrooms, she yelled to her mom, "I love you, mama." Her mom, Keisha, replied, "I love you too, Chance." Chance continued to play. She went into her 7-year-old brother's bedroom and began pulling out the drawers to the dresser so she could climb up and reach a TV - a TV that was sitting on top of the wobbly dresser. In an instant, both the TV and dresser fell over, killing Chance. Unfortunately, these tragedies happen more often than you would think. Every three weeks a child dies from a television tipping over. And every 45 minutes, a child is sent to the emergency room due to a TV tip-over.
Many TV tip-overs are a result of TVs that aren't secured.
A curious child can easily pull flat panel TVs with narrow bases off an entertainment center or table. Large and heavy old-style TVs placed on dressers or high furniture can also tip over if children climb the drawers to reach a remote control, piece of candy, video game, or anything else that attracts their attention. According to a 2012 report released by Safe Kids Worldwide and SANUS, three out of four parents don't secure their TV to the wall. Most families are unaware that securing a TV is an important safety measure. Others decide not to mount their TVs because of concerns about damaging the wall or installing the TV incorrectly. We want children to have the freedom to explore and play. That's why injury prevention is so important. With a little common sense and a few precautions, we can create an environment where kids can take chances and have fun and still be safe. You wouldn't bring a baby home from the hospital without a car seat or have your child ride a bike without a helmet. Mounting your TV properly is an equally important part of keeping your kids safe.
How Can You Prevent TV Tip-Overs in Your Home?
Mount flat-screen TVs to the wall to prevent them from toppling off stands. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that you have a secure fit. Still unsure if you want to mount your TV? Consider using an anti-tip strap. If you have a large, heavy, old-style cathode ray tube (CRT) TV, place it on a low, stable piece of furniture. If you no longer use your CRT TV, consider recycling it. To find a location to safely and easily recycle unwanted TVs, go to GreenerGadgets.org.

We all think it won't happen to us, but car accidents do happen, and always without warning. As parents we never hop into the car with the intent to "get into an accident", and because of this we need to ensure that our children are ALWAYS strapped properly and safely!
The thought of getting into an accident is certainly sobering; something we don't like to think about, although at the end of the day…we all want to ensure our children are safe.
Moms and Dad's at Baby Basics last week were fortunate to hear all about travelling safe in the car from the expert team at The Children's Furniture Gallery! Certified in car seat safety, they were able to answer our questions, AND let us know what MOST parents are doing wrong!
Did you know that 9 out of 10 carseats are not being installed properly, and/or the child is not being secured in the seat correctly?
This is a shocking statistic, and the scariest part is that parents are unknowingly putting their children at risk.
Jay from the Children's Furniture Gallery explained what mistakes parents are making when they hit the road — and what all parents should be checking to lower this statistic.
1. Turning your child forward facing too soon. Did you know that children should actually remain rear facing until about age 4! In North America it has become the norm to turn our children around as soon as they hit the minimum manufacturers guidelines for forward facing seats. Read your car seat manufacturers guidelines to get more info about when you should be turning your child's car seat. Still think a child should turn forward facing sooner? Read this great article about common practices in Sweden, and why they have the lowest fatality rate for children involved in car accidents.
2. Car seat is not securely installed. Another error often made is when attaching the car seat inside the car. In many cases, the seat is too loosely installed and not tightly secured to the vehicle. Your car seat should not move more than 2.5 cm (or 1 inch) in any direction at the base of the seat, right at the seat belt or UAS path.
3. Harness on the child is too loose. How tight is too tight? A common mistake is leaving the harness too loose and not having your child secured properly. Conduct the "pinch test". You should not be able to pinch any of the harness webbing at the child's shoulder.
4. Placing the chest clip to low or too high. The chest clip should always fall directly overtop of the breast bone. Children grow quickly, so this is always something you want to check to ensure a growth spurt hasn't changed the positioning.
When in doubt, ask the experts! Did you know that if you purchase your car seat at The Children's Furniture Gallery, you can stop by any time to have them double check that it is installed correctly. If it's not, they will educate you on what you need to look out for every time you "re-install" the seat into your vehicle.
Didn't purchase your car seat at The Children's Furniture Gallery? No problem! They will still inspect it for a small fee and put your mind at ease.

A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial on the Efficacy of Chiropractic Therapy on Premenstrual Syndrome
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of chiropractic therapy on the treatment of symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome.
Design: A prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical trial.
Setting: Multicenter private clinics.
Subjects: Twenty-five subjects with diagnosed premenstrual syndrome (with a Moos premenstrual syndrome questionnaire plus daily symptom monitoring).
Intervention: After randomization, 16 of the subjects received high-velocity, low-amplitude spinal manipulation plus soft tissue therapy 2 to 3 times in the week before menses for at least 3 cycles. The remaining 9 subjects received a placebo treatment with a spring-loaded adjusting instrument wound down for minimum force. After a 1-cycle washout, the 2 groups changed over.
Outcome Measure: Daily rating of symptom level, comparing total scores for premenstrual week with baseline for treatment and placebo phases.
Data Analysis: The data were analyzed with paired Student t tests and Wilcoxon signed rank tests, with the statistical significance set at P < .05.
Results: There was a significant decrease in scores after treatment compared with baseline scores (P = .00001) and a statistically significant decrease in scores for the treatment phase compared with the placebo (P = .006). For group 1 (n = 16), there was a significant decrease in scores after treatment compared with baseline scores (P = .0001) and a statistically significant decrease in scores for the treatment phase compared with the placebo (P = .041). For group 2 (n=9), there was a significant decrease in scores during treatment compared with the baseline (P = .01); however, there was no difference at the P = .05 level between treatment and placebo scores.
Conclusions: Within the limitations of the study, the results support the hypothesis that the symptoms associated with PMS can generally be reduced by chiropractic treatment consisting of adjustments and soft-tissue therapy. However, the role of a placebo effect needs further elucidation, given that the group receiving the placebo first, although improving over the baseline, showed no further improvement when they had actual treatment. (J Manipulative Physiol Ther 1999;22:582-5)
Key Indexing Terms: Premenstrual Syndrome; Chiropractic Manipulation
Premenstrual syndromes (PMS) are a group of menstrually related, chronic, cyclical disorders characterized by emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms in the second half (luteal phase) of the menstrual cycle.( 1) In its more severe form, the syndrome has been referred to by the American Psychiatric Association as premenstrual dysphoric disorder and is categorized as a depressive mood disorder.( 2)
Estimates of prevalence vary from 10% to 90%, depending on the mode of assessment used, with some 10% to 20% of women of reproductive age having premenstrual dysphoric disorder with severe or disabling symptoms.( 3, 4)
Apart from social and work-related problems, suicide and criminal behavior can also occur. PMS has been accepted as a mitigating factor in crimes committed in the United Kingdom, and France has permitted PMS as grounds for a plea of temporary insanity. In 1983, Kramer( 5) estimated that PMS affected 5 million women in the United States and that at least $30 billion in wages had been lost as a result of PMS.
The lack of a uniformly accepted definition or diagnostic criteria has inhibited research and advances in the management of PMS; however, it is generally recognized that a true diagnosis can only be made after a prospective recording of symptom severity on a daily basis for a minimum of 2 cycles.( 6, 7) Most current therapeutic interventions (eg, drugs, vitamin supplements, and psychotherapy) have been found to be ineffective compared with placebo treatments, to have undesirable side effects,( 7, 8) or to have low patient treatment satisfaction.( 1) Recent research( 9, 10) has indicated that drugs such as fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline, which affect serotonin activity and reuptake, may be effective in the treatment of PMS and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. There is only minimal evidence in the literature about the use of chiropractic treatment or spinal manipulation for the care of PMS. Anecdotal evidence of the effectiveness of chiropractic manipulative therapy in reducing the symptoms associated with PMS is abundant, but no clinical trials have been performed. Published case studies( 11-14) offer some support for the anecdotal evidence.
The trial design was a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical trial. The study was approved by the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University Human Ethics Committee. All participating subjects gave written informed consent after reading information about the study. Fifty-four subjects were recruited by media articles and advertising and were of reproductive age with diagnosable PMS (according to DMS-IV-R criteria) and regular menstrual cycles. Subjects were excluded from the study if they had medically diagnosed psychiatric, gynecologic, or hormonal disorders, had undergone chiropractic treatment in the previous 6 months, were taking medication that affected the menstrual cycle, or had contraindications to chiropractic manipulation.
All subjects underwent an initial interview during which they completed a Moos Menstrual Distress Questionnaire to determine a provisional diagnosis of PMS. A full medical history and physical examination was conducted by a qualified medical practitioner to rule out exclusion diagnoses and pathologic conditions. The chiropractic examination was performed by 1 of 2 qualified, registered chiropractors. Fortyfive subjects satisfied the DSM-IV criteria for PMS as indicated by the Moos questionnaire, had no contraindications to chiropractic therapy, and were admitted to the study. These subjects monitored their major PMS symptoms on a daily basis for a minimum of 2 complete cycles before any intervention with a PMS-Cator disc, developed and validated at Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology by Magos and Studd.( 15) This was necessary to confirm a diagnosis of PMS and establish a baseline. On the basis of the baseline daily rating of symptoms, all 45 subjects were confirmed as having PMS and were then randomly assigned to 2 groups. Group 1 (n = 28) initially received chiropractic treatment for 3 cycles, followed by the placebo, consisting of a sham adjustment for an additional 3 cycles after a 1 cycle washout. Group 2 (n = 17) received the placebo first, then the treatment. The flowchart in Figure 1 summarizes the phases of the trial.
Treatment and Placebo Regimens
Treatments and placebos were delivered at 7 separate private clinics by fully qualified, registered chiropractors with a minimum of 10 years clinical experience.
Treatment consisted of standard high-velocity, low-amplitude spinal manipulations delivered either manually or by drop tables and soft-tissue therapy as clinically indicated. Low-force techniques such as adjusting instruments or pelvic blocking were not used. The sham treatment used a Activator Adjusting Instrument (Activator Methods Inc., Phoenix, Ariz) wound fully down to minimize the impulse, which was delivered away from the normal segmental contact point. Both treatment and placebo were given an average of 3 times over a 10-day period before start of menses for each cycle. For group 1, the range of total number of real treatments per subject was 6 to 11 with an average of 7.9, whereas for group 2, the range was 6 to 9 with an average of 6.7 treatments per subject.
All data analysis was performed by one of the authors (M.J.W.) and an independent statistical consultant. The treating practitioners had no access to or knowledge of the outcomes of treatment at any stage during the trial and were requested not to discuss PMS symptom levels with the subjects they were treating. All subjects were told that they would be receiving spinal manipulation in all visits, but 2 different methods were to be used.
Outcome Measure
Subjects monitored their PMS symptoms on a daily basis with the PMS-Cator disc for the full course of the trial. Up to 7 symptoms were scored as follows: 3 = severe; 2 = moderate; 1 = mild; 0 = none. A global score composed of the total score for all symptoms over a 7-day period before menses was calculated for each cycle as a measure of the symptom severity for the premenstrual week for all phases of the trial. The average global score was calculated for the baseline, treatment, and placebo phases.
Data Analysis
The average global symptom scores for the premenstrual week for the baseline phase were compared with those for the treatment phase, and the treatment phase scores compared with those for the placebo phase. In each case, the data were analyzed with paired Student t tests with the statistical significance set at P < .05. Wilcoxon signed rank tests were performed, verifying that the data fit a normal distribution.
The minimum sample size for statistical significance was 20 for the crossover design used in this study. This figure was calculated by an independent consultant based on data from a previously conducted pilot study.( 14)
A total of 25 subjects completed all phases of the study. There were 20 dropouts from the 45 initially accepted into the study: 5 withdrew after the baseline monitoring; 6 withdrew because of illness or injury; 3 were away for a significant period of time; 3 did not have time to continue participating; and 3 became pregnant during the study.
Table 1 shows the subject characteristics for the initial cohort, the dropouts, the total subjects who completed, and each of the 2 study groups. There were no differences among any of the study groups in terms of initial level of PMS symptom severity, age, cycle length, and number of children. Similarly, there were no statistical differences (chi-square test) for the same characteristics, including initial PMS scores between the dropout group and the study group.
The major symptoms monitored for the study group (Table 2) showed a similar distribution and frequency as reported in the literature about women with PMS.( 4, 5, 16) The distribution was similar in both study groups.
Comparisons of average global scores (as calculated from daily symptom ratings) for the baseline, treatment, and placebo phases of the study are shown in Table 3 and Figure 2. For the total group, there was a significant decrease in the mean global scores in the treatment phase compared with both the baseline and the placebo phases. This result was also seen for the treatment-first group (group 1). For the placebo-first group (group 2), there was a significant decrease in scores during treatment compared with the baseline; however, there was no difference at the P = .05 level between treatment and placebo scores.
Twenty-three of the 25 subjects who completed the trial had a mean score for the treatment phase lower than the mean baseline score. Fourteen subjects had a reduction in treatment scores of 30% or more compared with baseline, which is considered to be clinically significant.( 17)
The results of the study support anecdotal and case study evidence that chiropractic therapy consisting of spinal manipulation and soft-tissue therapy can reduce symptom levels in some women with PMS. Just over half of the subjects who completed the trial showed a significant improvement in symptom levels after treatment.
There are a number of limitations to the study that need to be taken into account in applying the trial results to the general population of women with PMS. The relatively small sample size, although large enough for statistical purposes, makes it difficult to apply the results to the general population, despite the appearance that the study sample was a representative sample. As a result of the long trial period (each subject was required to be in the study for a minimum of 9 months), compliance was difficult; a large number of participants dropped out, with the effect on the results not known. Follow-up effects were not obtained so that the longer-term effects of the treatment are not known. Informal indications from subjects were that the effects were short-lived, with regular treatment needed on a monthly or bimonthly basis. This aspect requires further investigation. The inability to blind the treating practitioners to the type of intervention delivered is a problem associated with all manual therapy trials. Similarly, the development of an appropriate placebo has been a major problem. The placebo in this trial involved the use of a spring-loaded, adjusting instrument that was turned down maximally to minimize the impulse delivered away from the normal point of contact. Haas et al( 18) found that this procedure was satisfactory. However, it can be argued that it is impossible to remove all effects of a placebo used in manual therapy trials; this would account for a part of the apparent placebo effect with group 2. In general, the presence of the Hawthorne effect, in which the construct validity of a study is compromised by the introduction of subjects' and practitioners' expectation bias, would contribute to a possible placebo effect.
There are several theoretical models that could provide a basis for the role of chiropractic treatment in PMS management. Normalizing neurologic activity is a fundamental premise of chiropractic treatment.( 19, 20) In particular, the somatovisceral reflex hypothesis states that somatic sensory input arising from the richly innervated soft-tissue structures of the vertebral motion segments may initiate or modify a visceral activity such as abdominal cramping and vascular headaches.( 21, 22)
A more recent hypothesis involves the role of endogenous opiate peptides. There is evidence that aberrant cyclic changes in circulating endogenous opiate peptide levels may play a role in the pathophysiology of PMS. In particular, an excessive drop of endogenous opiate peptides during the premenstrual weeks in women with PMS has been found, which may account for a number of PMS symptoms.( 23) Chiropractic manipulative therapy may cause a change in á-endorphin (an endogenous opiate peptide) levels. This has been used to explain the pain relief obtained from chiropractic manipulative therapy.( 24, 25)
A further theory implicates prostaglandins in PMS. Abnormal production of prostaglandins has been found in women with PMS. Abnormal prostaglandin levels can give rise to symptoms similar to those found in PMS.( 26) There is some evidence that spinal manipulation may be associated with a reduction in plasma levels of prostaglandins.( 27)
Within the limitations of the study, the results support the hypothesis that the symptoms associated with PMS can generally be reduced by chiropractic treatment consisting of adjustments and soft-tissue therapy. However, the role of a placebo effect needs further elucidation, given that the group receiving the placebo first, although improving over the baseline, showed no further improvement when they had actual treatment.

The health care sector in the western countryside of Deir Ezzor continue to deteriorate. It has totally become devoid of field hospitals and dispensaries after Daesh transported all of them to the area of Maadan, the capital of the organization in the western countryside. Two badly equipped medical points are all what has been left in that area.
Most of those working at the pharmacies in the western countryside are incompetent and have nothing to do with pharmacy. In light of the absence of control, the blacksmith, the carpenter and the shepherd are now the ones in charge of selling medicines at these pharmacies. Civilians are pushed to go to them after all medical staff members left the region due to being burdened by the taxes imposed by the group and also for being forced to work at the Maadan hospital.
The organization is more focused on Sharia issues than the scientific and humanitarian ones. It punishes women who violate its Islamic dress code and the men who keep their beard short and wear long clothes while ignoring more important issues related to the civilian situation.
Two doctors, a pediatrician and a surgeon, are the last remaining medical staff in the western countryside. Moreover, the area is facing an extreme shortage of medicine, mainly after the destruction of the bridges that has increased prices of medicines. Most of the medicines that are being sold in the western countryside have expired. The pharmacies in the western countryside do sell some of the most used medicines, however, they remain unable to provide civilians with medicines for curing diabetes, thyroid, anticoagulants and drug toxins.

Democracy is America's Most Potent Asset
The next American president should get back to celebrating the moral power of democracy. This was standard fare for President Ronald Reagan—in fact it was pretty standard throughout the Cold War. The fact that democracy promotion is little more than a slogan and not a centerpiece of American foreign policy is a mistake. We are leaving our most powerful asset unused in the global competition that will shape the 21st … Read More

Are the United States and China in a New Cold War?
The Texas National Security Review recently gathered a group of Asia-watchers and historically-minded scholars to discuss whether the tensions between the United States and China amount to a 21st century Cold War.

Timor Leste, Australia, and the International Order
Evidence abounds that the international order created by the victors of World War II is under assault. Current leaders seem to believe that might does, in fact, make right. Hard power, it seems, is supreme. In fact, the long-discredited social-Darwinian pursuit of conquest, natural resources, and power again has a following. But occasionally, positive news breaks through the noise to sustain our faith in the system that has preserved great-power … Read More

Richard can play with or without backing music, on a traditional acoustic violin or his Yamaha electric violin - with or without amplification, giving you a variety of options to fit your musical tastes.
Richard is the principal violinist with the highly regarded Exe Valley String Quartet. The String Quartet have been playing at weddings parties, corporate functions and other special occasions for many years.
Richard will bring his Yamaha P 115 Stage Piano which is a lovely sounding portable stage piano with an authentic grand piano tone. The piano is the perfect instrument to set the right ambience for your drinks reception and wedding breakfast.
'We were so lucky to have the wonderful Richard Toomer as our violinist for our elopement wedding on July 30th 2019.
From our very first correspondence with Richard, he was so warm, professional and enthusiastic. We had a good idea of what we were after, and Richard listened and was so accommodating, even learning two new pieces for us for our day. He also had a vast repertoire for us to choose the bulk of our music from.
He played the pieces so beautifully, with his rendition of Steve Earle's Galway Girl bringing me to tears - it was just so perfect! Underlining his versatility, he played a more upbeat version of the same song later on for us all to boogie along to, and it was just fantastic. He learnt Bowie's Magic Dance for us to exit to and he completely picked up on our enthusiasm for this song and everyone, including the registrars, boogied their way down the aisle. It was wonderful!
Richard, thank you for being part of our day and making it so special, you were fantastic! '
'If you need a violinist or pianist who plays everything from Coldplay to Bach then this is your man! Hugely talented but also very easy to work with. Richard already has a huge repertoire (some of which is listed on his website) but if he doesn't know it, is super flexible and will learn any requests. It was really easy to book Richard (we dealt with Richard over email/WhatsApp) and he was quick to respond to queries. Feedback from guests was superb - I will never forget standing in the sunshine listening to Katy Perry's 'Firework'! A huge thank you and couldn't recommend Richard more. '
'Beautiful musician , can play classical to rock . Ideal for any occasion'
'Wow - this man is a legend!!!'
'He is a great musician and very professional - we recommend him highly!'
'Always dedicated and passionate about everything he does'
'Richard Toomer is simply a wonderful musician.'
'Richard is an excellent musician and a great person to work with.'
'Having witnessed with my own eyes and ears the jaw dropping talent of this musician, yes I would highly recommend him..exceptional talent and all round lovely chap.'
'Richard is a talented musician who has the ability to inspire those around him to perform and in doing so, grow as people! A genuine professional with a special gift that he willingly shares.'
'Richard played the Intermezzo from Mascani's Cavalleria Rusticana at our wedding with such passion and skill. It was a highlight of the service, and of the whole day!'
'What a lovely man! Everything was perfect! Great communication, very attentive to detail in what I wanted! Fabulous! Would definitely recommend! So glad we found you!'

Misleading caller ID, education focus of last week
In spite of the cold and nasty weather, the legislature met in session every day last week. I continue to commute to the capitol from home most days, but as the years go by I find myself staying overnight more often in order to avoid driving when the roads are treacherous.
The focus now is on continuing to file bills and work them through the subcommittee process in hopes of getting them before the full committee before the March 8 funnel date.
House File 1 – I mentioned this bill in my earlier newsletter. This bill seeks to make it against state law to use false or misleading caller identification information, a constant problem these days. One of the benefits of filing such a bill is that it brings a great deal of information from the various lobbying groups to the forefront. In particular, national telephone companies shared with the subcommittee members what they have been doing to prevent this fraudulent practice. Considerable effort is underway within the Federal Communications Commission and the national telephone companies to develop software applications to block these types of calls. This practice is already illegal at the federal level, with some of the bad actors already being fined tens of millions of dollars. The telephone companies have asked that instead of creating a patchwork of state laws that are redundant with the federal law, we instead lend the legislatures voice to the national effort being undertaken by the FCC. Therefore, I have shelved this bill and am working up a resolution supporting the FCC's efforts at a national level, joining other states that have issued similar resolutions.
One of the major topics for the legislature is education. Our education funding consumes nearly 55 percent of the budget which drives much of the discussion. House Republicans have made it a priority to focus on education issues that give the schools more tools and flexibility to innovate instead of simply focusing on funding. In 2013, the legislature passed the Teacher Leadership Compensation program that created a career ladder for teachers and a mentoring process. This program has been fully implemented and has been embraced by the teachers and administrators, they credit the program for improving the education process.
We've given the schools flexibility in spending funds that are targeted to specific initiatives, recognizing that not every school has the same issues. We've helped our rural schools get more money to the classroom by providing additional transportation funding for those schools that have the highest transportation costs. We gave our school boards and administrators considerably more flexibility in managing their staffs by making significant changes in the Chapter 20 Collective Bargaining laws. The result of these, and many other pieces of legislation has resulted in Iowa increasing the number of teachers by 3,100 since 2011, allowing the student to teacher ratio to drop every year even as enrollment numbers increase. Teacher pay has increased to an average of nearly $59,000 per year. When controlled for cost of living, this puts Iowa eighth in the nation for teacher pay. Iowa now has the highest high school graduation rate in the nation at 91 percent. We will continue to look for innovative ways to improve on that record.
One education bill that I sponsored again this year, House File 6, would eliminate "Diversity Plans" in certain school districts that restrict open enrollment. Statewide, there are five school districts that have implemented these plans, preventing families in those districts from open enrolling into other school districts of their choice. I believe that it is fundamentally unfair to the families in those five districts to be denied the right that families in over 300 other school districts have. I have high hopes that this bill will make it through the legislature this year.
As always, I can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com and at 641-750-3594.

In my corner of the world, the leaves are almost all gone and the temperature has dropped quite a lot. This means more squashes and more soups, right? Well, that's certainly the case in my house. However, squashes are not only good in soups… They also make the best side dishes as you will find out with this "5 ingredients only" recipe.
Autumnal Squash
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
- 1 butternut squash medium size, cut into cubes (about 1/2 inch)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp pumpkin spice or 1/3 tbs cinnamon + 1/3 tbs nutmeg + 1/3 tbs ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp salt
Preheat oven at 425 degrees F.
In a bowl, toss and mix together all the ingredients.
Toss squash onto 2 separate baking trays (or a very large one) layered with parchemin paper and cook for about 30 minutes, until tender.
Once tender, switch to broil for about 2 minutes, until nicely browned.
Remove from oven ans serve.
You can use pretty much any other types of squash but the cooking times may vary

I have been working on a few projects in GEE for the past year. Access to GEE code editor has now been revoked (I've been told that Google wants the US Fish and Wildlife Service to pay to use GEE now). I would like to at least retain the scripts that I've written. In the developers guide it states that "The Scripts manager stores private, shared and example scripts in Git repositories hosted by Google." Is there a way to access personal scripts in the git repository without having to sign into the code editor?
The script repositories that you access from the Earth Engine Code Editor are stored in Google Cloud Source. The can be accessed via a web browser using the following URL pattern:
Script repositories can be cloned locally with Git. For example, to clone your default repository:
git clone https://earthengine.googlesource.com/users/USERNAME/default
Thanks. I tried your suggestion but I'm getting the same message I get when trying to access the code editor "You don't have access to this service. To request access, contact the administrator for your organization's Google services." My colleague has already spoken to IT and they said google now wants $ for government use of GEE. I see you work for GEE, do you know if there is truth to that? – Kevin Barnes Mar 12 '19 at 0:26
1The error message indicates that an administrator within your organization has disabled access to Earth Engine. The Earth Engine Terms of Service (earthengine.google.com/terms) allow for "development, research, or educational purposes" and "evaluation in a production environment", but do not allow for "sustained commercial purposes". The terms have not changed since 2015, so I don't know why Earth Engine has been disabled for your organization at this time. – Tyler Erickson Mar 13 '19 at 21:09
Thanks for the response. I don't think they know either. I've been in touch with IT today. They are trying to figure out what is going on, but said I shouldn't have ever been able to sign in with a fws.gov email address because google cloud source isn't approved for government use, or something like that...but I was granted access back in Dec 2016 and have been using it for two years with a government email address. I guess they just changed something this Monday and now I can't get in. It's my worst nightmare. – Kevin Barnes Mar 14 '19 at 17:50
1Tyler, is it not working anymore? I'm trying to run git clone without success... – Etore Marcari Jr. Jan 14 at 19:45
