Poem by: Dequarius
Look in the mirror and tell me what you see,
Maybe, the next doctor, lawyer or president to be,
Look in the mirror and tell me what you want to achieve,
When you look in the mirror it is important that you always believe,
Look in the mirror and see that you have the ability,
Any other excuse that you have, is just so silly to me,
When you look in the mirror, you see a reflection of yourself,
Depend on what you have and do not depend on anyone else,
There is nothing on this earth that is too good for you,
Whatever you put your mind to, know that you can do,
When you go to bed, add those dreams to your collection,
And when you wake, tell it all to your reflection.

Hi, Dequarius!
I really liked this piece. You really "hit the nail on the head", so to speak.I especially liked the very last line....one I think I will call upon every morning when I get up. It is a great self- encourager.
It is really sad to know that there are many of us with such low self-esteem. We CAN be who we wish to be, if we just believe! And NOT LET GO!! Thanks for your insight into us humans....looking for more of your work.

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - PGGM, the Dutch pension fund manager overseeing assets of nearly 200 billion euros ($248 billion), is looking to increase its allocation to insurance-linked securities (ILS), or disaster reinsurance, despite a difficult year in 2017.
Evelien Takken, PGGM's senior investment manager for ILS, told Reuters in an interview she would like to bump up exposure from a little less than 2 percent of assets under management to 2.5 percent, an increase of around 1.2 billion euros.
PFZW, the Dutch healthcare industry pension fund that is PGGM's main client, reported a loss of around 2 percent on its ILS investments, ending the year with 3.84 billion [euros?] in assets. The fund said the heavy hurricane season was the main reason for the annual loss.
But Takken said that the asset class has returned 7 percent annually for PGGM, including last year's figures, and now is a reasonable time to increase allocations.
After a year with more than usual natural disasters, such as 2017, insurers' capital positions are somewhat weakened. They need to guard against another poor year, and they are willing to offer better premiums for reinsurance. Pension funds, which have capital and are on the hunt for good returns, are well-placed to fill the gap.
"For next year there's no increased hurricane activity expected, (but)...you're rewarded with a better premium for similar risks," she said.
In various categories of the ILS market, yields have increased in a range from less than 5 percent to almost 20 percent.
She said the company does not have a specific target date to reach 2.5 percent of assets allocated to ILS.
However, the "year after an event [such as a major hurricane] is a good moment to start."

Carbon Nanofibers Have IgE Adjuvant Capacity but Are Less Potent Than Nanotubes in Promoting Allergic Airway Responses

There is a growing concern for the possible health impact of nanoparticles. The main objective of this study was to investigate the allergy-promoting capacity of four different carbon nanofiber (CNF) samples in an injection and an airway mouse model of allergy. Secondly, the potency of the CNF was compared to the previously reported allergy-promoting capacity of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in the airway model. Ultrafine carbon black particles (ufCBP) were used as a positive control. Particles were given together with the allergen ovalbumin (OVA) either by subcutaneous injection into the footpad or intranasally to BALB/cA mice. After allergen booster, OVA-specific IgE, IgG1, and IgG2a in serum were measured. In the airway model, inflammation was determined as influx of inflammatory cells (eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages) and by mediators (MCP-1 and TNF- present in bronchoalveolar fluid (BALF)). CNF and CNT both increased OVA-specific IgE levels in the two models, but in the airway model, the CNT gave a significantly stronger IgE response than the CNF. Furthermore, the CNT and not the CNF promoted eosinophil lung inflammation. Our data therefore suggest that nanotube-associated properties are particularly potent in promoting allergic responses.

Nursing at the Horton. The Way it Was - When Care to the Local People Really Mattered
Paperback, 128 Pages
Price: $11.00
Prints in 3-5 business days
'Nursing at the Horton' - 1956 to 1962; when hospitals were run by nurses. Matron was all powerful, demanding considerable respect from all. We were taught patients came first, second and last, everything else had to fit in between. The relationship between them, and the local people was; 'They are our patients, and we were their nurses'. During this time student nurses were responsible for cleanliness in the hospital. We knew that if a patient developed a hospital born infection – heads would roll! Our heads remained safe. Antibiotics had just become available, in limited supply. The nurses worked long hard hours - 60 to 72 hours a week; but played hard too. Some parts are very sad, others happy or funny. If you have ever been a patient or nurse in a hospital, especially the Horton, you will recognise the love that was generated. The book is a sequel to 'Aynhoe Village Life. The Way it Was', but can be read as a stand alone. Look for... More > 'Nursing and Living in America. The Way it Was'.< Less

Stay continues in Bengaluru and Mysore as HC pushes hearing to 8 April
NEW DELHI/BENGALURU: Status quo remains in Bengaluru and Mysore as the hearing on extension of government mandated Digital Addressable System (DAS) has been pushed to 8 April by the Karnataka High Court.
The HC was expected to hear petitions filed by Karnataka Cable TV Operators Association (KCTVOA) and Mysore Cable TV Operators Association (MCTVOA) seeking extension of digitisation in Bengaluru and Mysore respectively.
However, the HC could not take up the case for hearing as an election related petition came up for hearing.
KCTVOA counsel S Subramanya confirmed that both the cases will come up for hearing on 8 April.
Both KCTVOA and MCTVOA had filed a petition in the HC for extending digitisation due to non-availibility of set-top boxes (STBs). One newly licensed MSO had stated in the last hearing on 1 April that he did not have enough time to acquire STBs and install them in subscriber homes.
However, the MSOs who have been made party to the case are opposed to any extension of deadline. The MSOs comprising Hathway Cable & Datacom, InCable, Den Networks, Siti Cable and Atria Convergence Technologies will request the HC to dismiss the writ petition filed by KCTVOA when the case comes up for hearing.
The sunset date for phase II of digitisation covering 38 cities including Bengaluru and Mysore was 31 March however the Information & Broadcasting ministry on 2 April allowed a 15 day grace period to the industry to allow smooth transition from analogue to digital cable.

Reworking Milena Agus' novel Mal di pietre for the big screen was always going to be a daunting task. The setting of 1950s rural France demanded all the period trappings; the narrative unfolds as an extended flashback; the troubled heroine, Gabrielle, spends much of the film in a mental health sanatorium, where her free will and passion faces prejudice and ignorance. Yet in the hands of director Nicole Garcia and her leading lady, Marion Cotillard, the adaptation Mal de Pierres (From the Land of the Moon) becomes a soaring, moving melodrama; the film screened in Official Selection at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, where Screen International lauded it as "an old-fashioned romantic weepie given class and conviction."
Nicole Garcia is one of the grand doyennes of European cinema. A beloved actress (she has 13 César nominations to her name), Garcia turned to directing with the acclaimed 1986 short, 15 août, a personal slice-of-life drama that featured her husband Jean-Louis Tritignant. It has led to collaborations with Nathalie Baye (Un week-end sur deux, 1990), Jean-Marc Barr (Le fils préféré, 1994), Catherine Deneuve (Place Vendôme, 1998), Daniel Auteuil (The Adversary, 2002), Jean Dujardin (Un balcon sur lamer, 2010) and her son, Pierre Rochfort (Un beau dimanche, 2013). Following the Cannes Premiere of From the Land of the Moon at the Grand Théâtre Lumière, Garcia (pictured, above) sat with SCREEN-SPACE in the Alliance Française tents to talk about her latest film….
SCREEN-SPACE: How did you become aware of the novel? What aspects of Gabrielle most enthused you?
NICOLE GARCIA: A friend of mine told me, "You have to read this book." So I read most of it travelling between Paris and Marseilles, and when I arrived I rang my producer and told him, "You have to find out if the rights are available." Maybe I was waiting for this sort of character. Maybe she represents a part of me, or a maybe because she represents a fascinating part of all women. Maybe because the character foreshadows what is happening with the women of today. What I like is that she dared to express the desire that she has. It is not a dark desire; she is not a nymphomaniac or a sex addict, but it is live, real sexual drive. It is also something that is very mystical. But hers is a life in two parts and she doesn't want to give up on either part. It is her dream to have both elements. (Pictured, above: Marion Cotillard and co-star Alex Brendemuhl).
SCREEN-SPACE: The setting provides an historical framework, but it is in many regards a very contemporary work…
NICOLE GARCIA: (Cannes artistic director) Thierry Frémaux believes that if you set a film in the past, you are foreshadowing what contemporary women will become. Gabrielle is in this very restrictive 1950s society, yet she has this wilful yearning for freedom, which was scandalous at the time. She was accused of being mad. But she represents movement towards the freedom and independence that women have today, sort of the 'first step on the ladder,' if you will. But above and beyond the modern interpretation of the text, is that there is something universal in the story, in Gabrielle, and that is the universal strength of feminine desire, which can be frightening. It is something that can overflow, can take over, that can wash away the very person from whom it generates. To this day, it is still viewed as very suspicious.
SCREEN-SPACE: I sensed that the soulfulness of her character comes from a yearning for a truthful connection, whether that is physically or intellectually…
NICOLE GARCIA: Gabrielle says something that is very important. At one point, she says, "I want somebody to talk to me, I want somebody to talk to." She wants somebody that she can express herself to in meaningful words, which is what she most often wanted to do with this very taciturn, rough Spanish builder. The modern woman has so many outlets, so many opportunities to express and validate and explore her many desires. But Gabrielle does not.
SCREEN-SPACE: Did you immediately share an understanding and common goal with Marion about how Gabrielle should be played?
NICOLE GARCIA: During the shoot, there was very little need to explain things. She saw things in the script and in my discussions about the character and just pulled them out, when required. It was two communicating vessels. We didn't rehearse; the only things we did before hand were costume and hair. So when we got to the set, I'd show her the scene and she'd say, "Ok, got it." It was just she and I and, with very little need to speak, we formed this character. For me, Marion creates a Gabrielle who is the geography of the film. She is the lavender fields, the Mediterranean, the Alps. In my vision, she emerges from the backdrop of the film. I wrote the role, so it was always within me. She was always the first choice for the role. She is the best actress in Europe at the moment. (Pictured, above; l-r, Louis Garrel, Cotillard and Garcia at the Cannes press conference).
SCREEN-SPACE: The sex between Marion and Louis Garrel, as Andre, is physically raw but also one of the most deeply emotional depictions of lovemaking I can recall…
NICOLE GARCIA: Thank you, yes. I was very worried about this scene. We shot it just before we left The Swiss Alps, so I had to count on the actors just letting themselves go. In the script, it's very easy; the actors lay down together and their bodies…engage (laughs). Marion knew (the passion) had to shown, had to be externalised. Personally, I find sex scenes in films rather boring, so I watched sex scenes in films from directors I admire, like Ang Lee. Then it dawned on me that the way into this scene is through her eyes. When you realise that she is seeing what she has always been looking for, and that she's achieved it, is deeply moving. And when you realise it is a dream…well, the force, the power of the imagination is beautiful.
From the Land of the Moon will be screening at the 28th annual Alliance Française French Film Festival. Session and ticket information can be found at the official event website.

Why "Going Off Petroleum" is Difficult
Agriculture is one, because of the dependence on fossil fuels for fertilizers. Without fertilizers, food can still be produced, but not at the same rate. The world population doubles every 40 years, and the agricultural industry plans on feeding everyone. Practically speaking, this can only be done by using petrochemical fertilizers and mechanization in planting, gathering, processing and distributing food. "Getting off of petroleum" sounds great but makes no sense in terms of global agriculture.
Petrochemicals now account for 50 billion tons per year of petroleum.
The steel industry requires metallurgical grade coke in order tow produce steel from iron ore. In round terms, this comes from some 400 million tons of metcoke per year or 500 million tons of metallurgical grade coal. Theglobal production of steel is around 1.2 billion tons.
Similarly, aluminum and many other metalscannot be made without consuming carbon, obtained from a combination of oil and coal. Some 60 million tons of carbon are consumed to make 140 million tons of aluminum. Aluminum is also an energy hog, requiring 3% of the global electricity consumed in order to produce it. Recycling requires much less energy, by the way.
Road building is usually done with asphalt, a petroleum product. If we switch to concrete, the best material is made with a certain percentage of fly ash from coal. In addition, you need energy to produce cement, some 500 million terrajoules per year, from burning some 10 million tons of carbon annually.
Glass also is energy intensive, and relies upon a combination of natural gas, coke and other products.
Look around you, and you will probably find that you are surrounded by fossil fuel products (either direct products or indirect ones), from the plastic in your computer, to the paint on the walls, to the vinyl siding on your house, the synthetics used in the carpet on the floor and the clothes you are wearing, the shingles on your roof, not to mention the cars in your garage.
At least 60% of oil isn't used for gasoline at all, but instead is used for chemicals, plastics, cokes, pitches, heating oil, etc.
Some folks think that if we can only shut down coal, oil and natural gas, some new cleaner energy sources will naturally emerge due to market forces! Oh boy! To me when I listen to our politicians (including the President) explain how this will work, I am reminded of Linus explaining the story of the Great Pumpkin. It just doesn't hang together for me. Still, shouldn't we actually bring these new sources of energy (whatever they are) to market first, and then kill our old technologies second?
Many folks are disgusted that the US consumes some 25% of all the energy in the world! How horrible! Wasteful! Well, we also consume, on the average, some 25% of everything else in the world! To make it simple, just take the US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and divide it by the world GDP, and darn if it doesn't come out to be the same number as our energy consumption, give or take. The "problem" isn't just our energy consumption, but our standard of living is much higher than the global average. So if you want to feel guilty about consuming too much energy, please feel free to feel guilty about everything else that Americans consume.
That starts to sink in for me when we turn to industries such as manufacturing. Auto and manufacturing, for example, would be a bit problematic without steel, rubber or plastic. Same with the transportation industry, and so on.
But what about the medical care industry? That doesn't seem to require much energy, does it? Much of that is simply labor. The problem is, when the people get their paychecks, they want to have houses and cars and all the rest. So it winds up getting reinvested in more fossil fuel and more carbon.
I'm having trouble rationalizing how we are going to get off fossil fuels. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the background information and expanding my thinking about petroleum products. Yes, we can reduce the 40 percent of petroleum that is consumed as gasoline, but a drop in demand will create an increase in price for all other petroleum products, especially the ones you mentioned: food, steel, aluminium, plastics, etc. It is much more complex than waiting for new technologies to emerge. Thanks Elliot.ReplyDelete

As someone who's been around too many hospitals and doctors' offices, I might comment that there are plenty of plastics in use in medicine - syringes, gloves (due to latex allergies), bedpans, pitchers, IV tubes, catheter tubes, etc. Also, as our medical community continues to expand the use of technology, energy consumption rises as well. Even blood pressure cuffs, these days, are being run on electricity rather than being pumped by hand. Great food for thought, Elliot!ReplyDelete
It's a question of resource substitution. The reason we use processes involving fossil fuels is that fossil fuels are just incredibly cheap-- coal is literally as cheap as rocks (and, actually, quite a bit cheaper than most rocks). There are plenty of alternative processes, but right now the most economic processes are not terribly sensitive to energy costs. If fossil fuel costs rise, different processes become economically favored.ReplyDelete

BRITISH taxpayers have been sending £2million to Zimbabwe every week to "promote democracy", it emerged on Thursday, November 16, 2017
British taxpayers have been sending £2million to Zimbabwe every week.
The country's £99.7million aid package formed part of the £13.4billion gifted by the UK in Official Development Assistance.
Mugabe, 93, who has led Zimbabwe since independence in 1980, has been accused of election rigging and brutally stifling opposition.
It is understood the Department for International Development does not give money directly to the government of Zimbabwe, instead of working with non-profit organisations.
Meanwhile, Britain boosted the financial handouts to Pakistan from £374million in 2015 to £463million last year.
The country is now the biggest recipient of UK foreign aid, despite developing its own space and nuclear weapons programmes.
The spending scandals are just two highlighted by the Daily Express as part of our Stop The Foreign Aid Madness crusade which demands the Government slashes the ODA budget and diverts cash into services here in the UK.
Public mood changes following scandals over how the money is allocated. This is where the UK Foreign Aid was being spent in 2015.
Bangladesh = £157.5m
Afghanistan = £199.6m
Tanzania = £199.7m
Syria = £201.6m
South Sudan = £205.5m
Sierra Leone = £213.8m
Nigeria = £253.50m
Ethiopia = £334.1m
Pakistan = £351.4m
Ukip deputy leader Margot Parker said: "Figures show the UK sent £13.4billion worth of ODA money in 2016. We are sending £2million a week to Zimbabwe to promote democracy and almost half a billion pounds a year to Pakistan – a state armed with nuclear weapons and its own space programme. This is simply ridiculous – this money would be better spent on our health service and social care provisions."
The Daily Express crusade has been backed by 75,000 readers and a host of cross-party politicians.

In 2009 the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) updated it's guide to bloggers regarding endorsments, opinions and reviews in the light of brand relationships. That all sound like legal speak, but to put it simply, it has been put in place to ensure that the reader of any blog or similar site is aware of any relationships the site may have with brands in the light of editorial comments and reviews. We think it is important to be as transparent as possible so we have written this guide in an effort to make our readers aware of this.
From time to time we are supplied (normally for a limited time) product to review. If you were unaware this is standard policy and practise for all magazines and web sites who review products; the term is often called NFR (Not For Resale) product.
This industry is very small (there is more turnover per annum in the fresh tomato industry) and much of what takes place is based upon relationships. In a further effort to be transparent to the community we want to disclose that we have relationships (this can be anything from the fact that we've had a few drinks with them, to being Facebook friends) in some cases we have been engaged by them in a professional capacity;
We'll update this list as and when it is necessary.
We are also BETA testers for several brands, but our NDA forbids us from speaking about this.
Other magazines and web sites may have similar policies so check with them about their exact arrangements and industry connections if you have any concerns.

St. Louis Blues vs. Columbus Blue JacketsNHL.com @NHLdotcom
GAME: St. Louis Blues (16-6-2-1) at Columbus Blue Jackets (8-14-4-1).TIME: Friday, 7 p.m. EST.
The St. Louis Blues look to keep pace in the battle for the Central Division lead when they take on the Columbus Blue Jackets for the first time this season.
The Blues are playing well, posting a 5-1-2 mark in their last eight games, but have fallen into second place behind Detroit in the Central. The Red Wings beat the Blues on Nov. 29 and tied them Dec. 4, giving them three of a possible four points from their closest competition in a six-day span.
Detroit has gone 6-1-1 in its last eight to take the division lead.
St. Louis won its second in a row Tuesday, as Chris Pronger scored 30 seconds into overtime to give the Blues a 3-2 victory over the red-hot Toronto Maple Leafs at the Air Canada Centre.
"It's a huge win," Pronger said. "It's a great feeling to stop a team that's playing with that kind of confidence. It shows us how well we can play against some of the top teams in the league."
Penalty killing has been a major factor in the Blues' recent strong play. St. Louis held Toronto scoreless on seven power-play opportunities, and has killed 41 of its opponents' 43 power-play chances in the last 11 games.
"The penalty kill has been a huge part of our success," center Doug Weight said. "I loved the way we played. Unfortunately, they got a goal with 17 seconds left, but we bailed ourselves out in overtime."
The Blues will be completing a two-game road trip Friday before opening a four-game homestand Saturday against Los Angeles. St. Louis is 9-2-1 at the Savvis Center this season.
The Blue Jackets managed a 1-1 tie with the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night, earning a point against the team with the NHL's best record. Columbus, though, is just 1-4-1 in its last six.
Columbus nearly pulled out the victory, but Sami Kapanen scored with 1:08 left in regulation to give the Flyers the tie.
The goal somewhat spoiled an outstanding performance by Blue Jackets backup goaltender Fred Brathwaite, who stopped 40 shots.
"I got a chance to get in there and we got a point," Brathwaite said. "But we should have had two."
Following the outstanding effort, Brathwaite could get the start Friday against the Blues, with whom he played last season.

As we get closer to the end of the first official day of publication for "DRAWING BLOOD" (at least on the East Coast), I had to mention how unbelievable sales (on amazon.com) have been. I could not be more thrilled with the response the book has gotten from readers!
Specifically the paperback is ranked #14,408 as I write this post!
The digital version of the book on amazon.com has actually been on sale for a week now, and it continues to be strong! As I write, its ranking is #140,291! And on the first day it was listed we placed #40,000 something for the first 24 hours!
For a book with no reviews, and no ratings... this is quite remarkable!
Hey, want to thank all of you readers who made a purchase! I know you'll enjoy the book! And thank you for the support!!
And thanks to everyone at Lono Publishing... clearly they got the word out!
Not everything went right today... my publisher still has not been able to get the book up on Barnes & Noble (so for all you Nook people out there... just hang in there... or go to Smashwords, where it is listed and can be bought for your Nook) or on Apple and Kobo. This is despite the fact that the book was submitted days and days ago!
Advice to writers out there… don't believe for a second that readers have gotten sick of vampires!
And to think "DRAWING BLOOD – Book #1 of the RELICT Series" is just the beginning. The books that follow will blow readers away!!!

Nate Piven's affairs are convoluted, to say the least, and some of his relationships seem to come right out of Seinfeld episodes.
Where to begin...well, there's Juliet, who meets Nate after a hiatus and castigates him for his insensitivity, for he'd gotten her pregnant, paid for an abortion and then effectively dumped her. We also meet Elisa, a former girlfriend who renews her interest in Nate now that he's about to have a book published. At a dinner party, Nate briefly meets Hannah, whom he finds attractive and who later becomes his "serious" girlfriend. They get along great, and Hannah even goes toe-to-toe with Jason, Nate's overly intellectual best friend. Nate and Hannah settle into a comfortable relationship, both sexual and social, but then (inevitably?) become moody and begin to drift apart. Nate knows the relationship's over when Hannah sends him a long email detailing the depth and complexity of her feelings, and he fails to respond with a similar email, so he then receives a much shorter and angrier one dismissing him as a jerk. On the rebound, Nate hooks up with Greer, another friend of Hannah's, and the novel ends with Nate and Greer moving in together. While on the surface things are fine, the relationship is fraught with the usual vulnerabilities and anxieties that characterize all of Nate's relationships. Throughout the narrative, Waldman also flashes us back to Nate's earlier girlfriends, pals and hookups.
The characters that populate Waldman's world are artistic, creative, funny and intelligent—except when it comes to matters of the heart, for they are constitutionally incapable of making long-term commitments. It would be refreshing to find one mature adult.

Chapter 1 – Through the Fringe of Madness
Alice Kingsley had always been considered a bit odd. She had quite a magnificent imagination and would often voice her more interesting thoughts, not noticing or caring that others thought her strange for it. On occasion, her imagination seemed to take on a life of its own, and on those occasions Alice would often be found holding a conversation with herself, or scribbling poetry at lightening speed onto any scrap of paper she could find.
One rainy day as Alice was taking a quiet stroll outside Bravil, she just so happened to look out into Niben Bay. And it just so happened that when she looked, Alice saw a glowing blue light shining through the fog over the water. Seeing as she was already drenched from the rain, she decided to investigate. She waded out into the murky water and began to swim towards the light.
As she drew nearer to the light source, she discovered that it was in fact coming from an island in the center of the bay. The light looked to be a doorway centered in the open mouth of a giant statue. Well, that definitely needed to be investigated further, so she made her way onto the island and wrung out her dress and hair as best she could. Closer to the doorway stood a Bravil guard and a petite Khajiit woman. On closer inspection, Alice suspected that the woman was more than a bit mad, and so approached the guard.
As she opened her mouth to speak, a Dunmer man burst through the glowing doorway and began shouting curses and threats. This one was obviously more than a bit mad, and drew a dagger and attacked the guard. He met his end quickly and the frazzled guard turned to Alice and told her bluntly that if she chose to go through the door, she would end up the same as the others here. Alice thought for a moment and decided that as she was half mad already, she didn't mind the risk.
As she opened her mouth to speak, a Dunmer man burst through the glowing doorway and began shouting curses and threats. This one was obviously more than a bit mad, and drew a dagger and attacked the guard. He met his end quickly and the frazzled guard turned to Alice and told her bluntly that if she chose to go through the door, she would end up the same as the others here. Alice thought for a moment and decided that as she was half mad already, she didn't mind the risk.
She stepped into the shining portal and found herself in a small room looking into the eyes of a very taciturn gentleman, who quickly told her to sit down. He introduced himself as Haskill, the chamberlain to the Prince of Madness: Sheogorath. This certainly peaked Alice's interest, and after a few more words, Haskill told her to make her way through the Gates of Madness. He left through the door on the far wall. As Alice stood up to do the same, the walls suddenly melted away into hundreds of butterflies, which was alarming but extremely beautiful at the same time. Alice decided that she liked the Shivering Isles already.
Alice made her way down a winding path that seemed to lead towards the village she had seen from the top of the hill. The plant life here was like nothing she had ever seen so it took her quite a while to reach the village, as she had to stop to stoop down to see every mushroom, and there were a lot of mushrooms.
She reached the village just before dusk. She determined that the settlement was called Passwall from listening to the villagers talk. Two of them ran up towards the Gates of Madness, so Alice followed behind them. That's when she saw what stood between her and the rest of the Isles: the Gatekeeper.
At that moment the Gatekeeper was battling what appeared to be a party of adventurers, and it was definitely winning. In a few moments all that remained of the group was the captain, and once alone, he quickly ran back towards the door to Cyrodiil. Alice knew she needed to plan carefully if she was to defeat the enormous creature guarding the Gates.
She made her way back to the village and headed to the inn for information. The innkeeper directed her upstairs to a very unpleasant woman named Relmyna. After enduring several insults and general unpleasantness from Remyna, Alice decided to snoop around her room once she left, a lucky decision as she found a letter Relmyna had penned to Sheogorath detailing exactly how she would defeat the Gatekeeper: Relmyna's tears were toxic to it. Fortunately, Relmyna was on her way up to see the Gatekeeper at that very moment, and if the letter was to be believed, she would be crying.
Alice managed to sneak up behind the Dunmer woman and watch from the shadows. She was in luck as Relmyna dropped a tear soaked tissue on the ground before she walked away, still crying. Alice crept over, picked it up, and squeezed as many tears as she could onto her sword. Still sneaking, she struck from the shadows. The Gatekeeper let out an ungodly wail as the tear-coated blade pierced its flesh. The battle was over surprisingly quickly and Alice retrieved the keys to the Gates of Madness from its corpse. Walking over to the Dementia entrance, she pressed the key into the lock and finally left the Fringe behind.

The Immigrants' Rights Clinic (IRC) of the Mills Legal Clinic at Stanford Law School has an immediate opening for a Program Fellow. The purpose of this new Fellowship is to support the expansion of the IRC's capacity to respond to the urgent needs of the immigrant community— including members of the Stanford community—in light of recent developments, including the executive actions undertaken by the Trump administration. A successful candidate will need to have significant legal training, either as a J.D. or as a professional paralegal. This is a one-year, fixed term position, with the possibility of a second year, dependent on need and budget.
The Program Fellow will divide his/her time between programmatic and administrative support for the work of the IRC. It is anticipated that approximately 50% of the role involves substantive immigrants' rights research and programming, such as legal research and tracking nationwide litigation developments. The other half of the Fellow's time will be spent providing administrative support to IRC operations. This support will range from preparing court and federal agency filings, maintaining and updating the IRC website, and processing financial transactions in the university's system. The Program Fellow will work in collaboration with two Clinical Supervising Attorneys and report to Professor Jayashri Srikantiah, director of the IRC with appropriate reporting to the clinic's Associate Director.
Mills Legal Clinic fellowship attorneys are part of the intellectual community within the clinical program, Stanford Law School, and Stanford University at large. The Program Fellow will be invited to attend, time and workload permitting, weekly faculty workshops at which scholars from Stanford and throughout the world present research and works in progress. The Law School also provides resources for its lawyers to participate in continuing education and other professional development activities.
The IRC is one of ten clinics comprising the Mills Legal Clinic, which occupies an entire floor in an award-winning central campus building opened in summer 2011. The Stanford clinical program is distinctive in that students participate in a clinic on a full-time basis; the clinic is the only course a student takes during the term of enrollment. The IRC engages in litigation and other advocacy strategies to advance the rights and interests of immigrant individuals and communities.
Applicants must have:
The salary is based on a formula that is competitive with similar positions.
Applicants should submit resumes through http://stanfordcareers.stanford.edu, referencing job number 74193. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Direct link to apply: https://stanfordcareers.stanford.edu/job-search?jobId=74193.
In addition, applicants should send the following materials to the addresses below:
Applicants should send the materials electronically to Judy Gielniak, Associate Director of the Mills Legal Clinic, at email@example.com.

extra () on the last line of EventManager.js

There appears to be an extra () on the last line of EventManager.js
12 Nov 2006, 7:05 PM
That's on purpose. It executes it immediately to make it a single instance object.
27 Nov 2006, 10:28 PM
I thought you could do
YAHOO.ext.EventManager = new function(){..};
YAHOO.ext.EventManager = function(){..}();
to get a new singleton instance, but the code has the 'new' operator and (). Just curious if both are required here ..
28 Nov 2006, 5:14 AM
They are synonymous. It's the same as:
function Foo(){
var f = new Foo;
var f2 = new Foo();
Both work, but I always use parenthesis.
I could be wrong though.
28 Nov 2006, 5:02 PM
You presently have
YAHOO.ext.EventManager = new function(){..} ();
My question was do you need both, new and the trailing ();?
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the intent. Are you creating a singleton instance 'YAHOO.ext.EventManager' ?
If so, then then wouldnt using either "new" or the trailing (); suffice to result in instantiating the function?
ie :
YAHOO.ext.EventManager = new function(){..};
YAHOO.ext.EventManager = function(){..}();
I stumbled upon this article http://yuiblog.com/blog/2006/11/13/javascript-we-hardly-new-ya/
which states
It is never a good idea to put new directly in front of function. For example, new function provides no advantage in constructing new objects.
myObj = new function () {
this.type = 'core';
If we are making an object containing methods that are bound to private variables and functions, it is still better to leave off the new prefix.
var foo = new function() {
function processMessages(message) {
alert("Message: " + message.content);
this.init = function() {
subscribe("/mytopic", this, processMessages);
By using new to invoke the function, the object holds onto a worthless prototype object. That wastes memory with no offsetting advantage. If we do not use the new, we don?t keep the wasted prototype object in the chain. So instead we will invoke the factory function the right way, using ().
var foo = function () {
function processMessages(message) {
alert("Message: " + message.content);
return {
init: function () {
subscribe("/mytopic", this, processMessages);
So it apprears that using a trailing (); is prefered over using the new operator when creating singletons.. but back to my question regarding the yui-ext YAHOO.ext.EventManager code, do we need both, the new operator and the trailing (); for function instantation?
28 Nov 2006, 5:07 PM
its actually on YAHOO.ext.EventObject and not YAHOO.ext.EventManager.
28 Nov 2006, 5:30 PM
Did you look at the code I posted? Here I will edit it:
function EventManager(){
var f = new EventManager;
var f2 = new EventManager();
Both have the same result. Replacing the named function with an anonymous (as it is defined now) doesn't change anything. Is the () required? no. What happens if you don't include it? It gets called implicitly. I prefer to include the extra 2 characters so it's obvious what's going on.
There is a difference between that code in that article and the EventManager code. You can't just remove the () and all is well. It would have to be reworked into a return {} statement. Is that better for singletons? That is debatable IMO. He is comparing a built in JS feature (new+function) (EventManager way) vs return {} (function call + new object). Which is better for a singleton? I think that depends on the structure of the class. If you have alot of private vars, and your private functions do not access public functions, return {} is the way to go. I'm sure you see me using it plenty. But for EventManager which has back and forth calls, it makes sense to use the standard construct.
28 Nov 2006, 5:36 PM
BTW, if you suggesting removing the "new" and just using (), "this" would point to the window object.
28 Nov 2006, 8:33 PM
Okay, I finally got it in my head. Thanks for your patience.

A number of the stars that are visible in the night sky are not in fact single stars, but rather what is known as double stars. When these stars are viewed through a telescope or even a pair of binoculars, a second companion star is found to be right next to it. Some cases resolve three stars in the grouping. Most stars are part of a system of stars of some sort. Binarys are stars that are very close to one another.
Binary stars have unique evolutionary properties. When one dies, the other is typically close behind. The remanat of the first will often feed off of the other shortening its lifespan. In the case of the star Sirius, it has a dark companion, often known as the pup, which is a remnant of a former partner.
For the most part, this should be self explanitory. A write up should include disscussion of the evolution of binary systems and of the different types of binaries.

Troutdale resident John Wilson gave me permission to share the public comment he gave at the February 28, 2017 Troutdale city council meeting:
"I would like to talk about cronyism. For those who do not know what this means, I will give you the definition:
Cronyism is the practice of partiality in awarding jobs and other advantages to friends or trusted colleagues, especially in politics and between politicians and supportive organizations. For instance, this includes appointing "cronies" to positions of authority, regardless of their qualifications.
Mayor and the council, you may be wondering why I would like to talk about this. The reason is what took place at the Committee Interview and selection meeting a few weeks back.
First, let me say I am not hurt, upset or angry that I was not selected, and if Glenn White and Zach Hudson want to keep the Citizens Advisory Committee from having a knowledgeable member on that committee, it was their call.
I attended the entire meeting and I am here tonight for the other citizens of Troutdale that gave up their evening in hopes they could give back to the community. I had told Rob Canfield who was also there, that after Corey Brooks interviewed he would be selected for the Budget and Planning Committee, no matter who else interviewed.
There were many better qualified candidates to be on the budget committee, more qualified than all of the City Council and myself. You have one candidate who had a Masters degree and works for the county preparing budgets. They have done this for many years. Glenn (city councilor Glenn White) is on record as saying he thought there may be a conflict since he did budgets for the county. Glenn, you have had the applications since January, you had plenty of time to check, you didn't because you already knew who was going in this seat. This was a very empty gesture on your part.
Almost everyone that applied for the Budget committee had a bachelors degree and worked in accounting. Glenn do you remember last year when you were insistent that the person selected should have a degree in accounting? You are on the record as saying this. What happened to the same philosophy this year? (City councilors) Glenn, Rich, Zach and David you could hear crickets around the room when Tanney announced Corey as his selection for the voting seat and alternate.
The best qualified are supposed to be picked, but instead the friend of Glenn, Rich, Zach, David and got picked. This person campaigned with Zach, Rich and Glenn and was supported by Tanney. For qualifications, the other candidates had college degrees and experience with budgets and planning. The only qualification Corey Brooks could offer was his association with (city councilors) Glenn, Rich, Zach, and David.
The people who came in applying for the Planning Commission had college degrees. One had a Masters degree in planning and land use laws. Did he get picked? No. The same person that was picked for the budget committee was also picked for the planning commission-- Corey Brooks.
I do believe that Corey Brooks is a good husband, Father, honest and a good member of the community but he did not rise above the others, others raised well above him.
My belief is that he was picked for the budget committee and planning commission so he will have some city experience under his belt in two years to run for office. Because he is friends of Glenn, Rich, Zach and Tanney, all the other applicants had no chance of being selected .
In other words--- cronyism.
Mayor, I believe that as long as these three councilors and the chair of the budget and planning commission are around, the application to be on one of the committees should include " Unless you are friends with Councilors Glenn White, Rich Allen, Zach Hudson or Committee Chair Tanney Staffensen ,don't apply for the Budget Committee, Planning Commission or Citizen's Advisory Committee because cronyism is key to getting on them".
Mayor, I believe that a committee person should only be chair of one committee and should only be chair once in their 2 , 3 or 4 year tenure. I believe that I have proved my point tonight with what has taken place in the Budget and Planning Committees by the current chair and certain members of the City Council. I would like you to look into this and hopefully make it happen.
While the council and the selection committee are free to choose whomever they want, certain council members have demonstrated that they have no ethics when it comes to selecting the right people for certain committees. I do believe that the middle schools teach ethics, and would suggest that these city councilors go back to middle school and take those ethics classes.
I do not hold you Mayor Ryan or Councilor Lauer responsible for this, as this is the first rodeo of this type you have been at. I also do not hold Councilor Morgan responsible as he was not at this meeting.
I do hold Councilors Glenn White, Rich Allen, Zach Hudson, David Rimpa as well as Tanney Staffenson, the Chair for the Budget Committee and Planning Commission responsible for the cronyism that took place at this meeting."

Replacement Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Catches Fire on Southwest Flight
by Oct 6, 2016 4:17 am0
Samsung's replacement Note 7 started shipping about two weeks ago to owners but it seems the company's woes are far from over. Yesterday, a Southwest Airlines flight had to be evacuated while still at the gate because of a smoking Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
This is a serious case because it is a replacement unit certified by the company as safe. In an interview with The Verge, the owner of the Note 7, Brian Green said he had picked up the phone at an AT&T store on 21st of September.
Before boarding the plane, Mr. Green says he powered down the phone which was at around 80% battery level as requested by the flight crew and put it in his pocket only for the phone to start smoking. He brought it out, threw it on the floor and thick grey-green smoke was pouring out of it. A colleague of his who went back on the plane to get his belongings said the phone had burned right through the carpet and singed the sub-floor of the plane. Brian Green says he has only charged the phone using a wireless charger since he picked it up.

A replacement Note 7 has a black square to indicate it is a replacement. After running the phone's IMEI through the recall eligibility checker, the message gotten was that the phone isn't affected by the recall program.

Welcome to the August 2016 Constanza Student Service Project!
Tim Gibson from Building Legacies International will lead this trip. Building Legacies International facilitates and leads customized legacy service trips for businesses, organizations, schools, and individuals. These unique trips create an environment where participants meet each other, serve together, and return home to make an impact in their own communities. A legacy experience is fertile ground for life transformation; both for your own and those you encounter during the trip.
Serving the Community of Constanza, Dominican Republic
Constanza is a town of about 90,000 inhabitants, located in a hilly area about 150 km from the capital city of Santo Domingo. Because of the good climatic conditions this is a strong agricultural area, however, there are large groups of people living in poverty. The people earn little and live in shacks without water and proper sanitation. Haitians, brought to the Dominican Republic to work on the sugarcane plantations, have an even more difficult time. They are often discriminated against. There are approximately 1,000 Haitian children who roam the streets alone having been abandoned by their parents.
There are many children in Constanza who are not going to school because education is not available to them. The community leaders in Constanza wanted to address this glaring need and asked Lifetouch to help construct a school for the children in the area.
In 2011, working in partnership with Lifetouch and in conjunction with participants from the NAESP, NASSP, and AASA resulted in the construction of the first floor of the Cecaini School. This team also built many lasting friendships in the community. Pastor Angel Moreta and the Constanza community are excited to welcome back their friends from that mission to come serve alongside them again.
Even more students are attending school with the completion of the second floor of Cecaini School thanks to the efforts and hard work of the first DR Reunion Trip in November/December 2012 and the second Lifetouch Memory Mission team in December 2012.
For those of you who were a part of these past trips, you are aware Pastor Angel and the local church are trying to care for different groups within the community. There are plans to build a kindergarten, vocational training school/center and an experimental farm where people, including drug addicts, can learn and gain vocational experience in agriculture, as well as woodworking, computers and sewing.
In 2013 and 2014, a Constanza DR Reunion team, as well as the third Lifetouch Memory Mission, constructed the first floor of the vocational school to provide the needed training for better jobs and employment opportunities. They were again joined by educators from NASSP, NAESP, ASA, NPTA, and some private schools.
January 2015 a Lifetouch Memory Mission worked on constructing the second floor of the vocational school and the first Student Service Project completed it and built a basketball court.
In 2016 there will be 3 Student Service Trips focused on a new school in Rio Grande which will be started by a Lifetouch Memory Mission in January 2016. The April and June Constanza Student Service Projectswill continue the work on the first floor of the new school.The August Student Service Project will begin the construction of a playground for the children of the school and the community. This school is a part of the CECAINI vision and we will continue to work with Pastor Moreta and his team. This trip is limited to the first 60 participants who send in their deposit.

I write, erase, rewrite, erase, and have finally come to a conclusion that a picture journal is the way to go. At times I may want to hear myself talk, but for now it just sounds redundant to me, considering I've already heard everything I have to say. Here are the happenings of my life, starting with a quick recap of the past couple of weeks which led up to my move across the country. Please enjoy.
To allow for the privacy of my family and friends, I will refrain from posting any pictures unless otherwise notified by those individuals.
This my friends, is an entirely allergy free cheese steak. Behold it's magnificence! Yes, this is the very first cheese steak I have ever had and I'm inclined to believe it is better than one full of allergies. Made from top of the line meats and products, it can only be found at One Dish Cuisine (I have been to the Ellicott City location but I believe there are a few other places to find their food).
I spent my 21st birthday with family and a close friend at the Ellicott Mills Brewing Company. They serve the best old bay wings I have ever tasted (I had them 3 days in a row so that might tell you something). I was back there the next day for my roommate's 21st and now we are pros 🙂
Beautiful roses were waiting in my room when I arrived at my Aunt and Uncles in Los Osos, CA.
While walking with Bumpa, I was given a beautiful tour of the surrounding parks. This here is at Morro Bay and you can see Morro Rock off in the distance. (click the link to read more about Morro Rock)
Morro Rock looks like a climbers paradise but upon further observation it can be concluded that there is a pretty good reason they do not allow climbing any longer. Once used for mining, the rock is now a bird sanctuary and listed as a historical landmark. This is one rock I will not have the privilege of climbing during my stay.
Next, Bumpa took me to Montana de Oro (the Mountain of Gold). The path around the park is about 4.2 miles round trip (if you back track instead of taking the road back) and it runs along the edge of the coastal Bluffs that overlook the ocean. This Bluff Trail (as it is actually called) has breathtaking views of ocean, coves, hills, and foothills and is a perfect place for walking, running, biking, picnicking, and even school field trips. The link I provided has some other great pictures as I am only posting of few of mine here.
Named for it's golden hills, Montana de Oro, like the other parks in California, actually blooms during the winter and is often brown during the summer. This picture, taken in the summer, gives you an idea of why the mountain got it's name but just try to imagine it in the winter.
Another breathtaking view of the cliffs and the ocean. I would take a run along here every day if I could!
The weekend was spent gallivanting around the countryside in search of good wine! We visited Jada Vineyard and Winery, Opolo, Proulx, and finished at Parrish Family Vineyard.
(since I didn't get to posting this beforehand, it is now the 5th day of my trip so these pictures are now from today).
Bumpa and I went back to Montana de Oro to exercise this morning and I couldn't resist stopping to take more pictures. This run took me a little further along the coastline than the first trip so I discovered some pretty neat coves.
That's a pretty good recap of what's been happening and as I explore and learn more about the beautiful central coast, I will be back to share it with you.
Miss you all at home!

Synthetic biology can be used to make nonpolluting fuel, instant vaccines against new diseases and inexpensive medicines, but it will take time, collaboration and a nurturing regulatory environment, scientists said on Thursday.
The researchers, along with an ethicist and members of Congress, agreed the technology does not pose immediate environmental, security or ethical concerns but said everyone needs to keep an eye on developments.
Most of the hearing before the House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Committee was spent outlining the potential of the technology.
The hearing was scheduled last week after a team at the J. Craig Venter Institute announced that they had used an artificially synthesized genome to bring back to life a bacterium that had its own genetic material scooped out.
"It is not life from scratch," Venter, who founded the institute, told the hearing, calling the work "a baby step" in the field of synthetic biology, with the eventual goal of building organisms directly to order from digital DNA.
As BP Plc battled an enormous oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico, prompting questions about where to look for oil and what threats petroleum products pose to the environment, scientists held out the prospect of microbes that can synthesize clean fuel and gobble up pollutants.
"Our optimistic estimates are that it is going to be at least a decade before there are replacements for gasoline and diesel fuel," said Venter, whose privately held Synthetic Genomics Inc. has a contract with Exxon Mobil Corp to try to make algae that can produce biofuel.
Jay Keasling of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California and the University of California Berkeley Synthetic Biology Engineering Research Center said his team's work had already been used as the foundation for two biofuel companies -- Emeryville-based Amyris Biotechnologies and South San Francisco-based LS9, the Renewable Petroleum Company.
Keasling said vaccine maker Sanofi Aventis has licensed technology to make engineered brewer's yeast that produces the anti-malarial drug artemisinin. He expects production to provide the drug at cost to the developing world within two years.
Venter said microbes engineered to make fuel from carbon dioxide could solve energy needs by pulling excess gases from the atmosphere that contribute to global warming.
The same technology could be used to design new vaccines in the computer, he added. But changes to human biology are far away. "It's a gargantuan leap from what we did to human," Venter said.
He defended moves to patent the technology. "This is clearly the first life form out of a computer and invented by humans," he said.
Some researchers have said they fear Venter or other groups could patent the process and lock them out.
Bioethicist Gregory Kaebnick of the nonpartisan Hastings Center said he saw no immediate ethical challenges.
"I believe concerns about the sacredness of life are not undercut by the science," Kaebnick told the hearing. "We are just talking about microbes at this point."
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, agreed and said there were no special worries about biological attacks using the technology, noting that it took Venter's team years to make their organism.
"We also must keep in mind that nature itself is already an expert at creating microbes that can cause great harm to humans," Fauci said. "Do not overregulate something that needs care, integrity and responsibility," he urged the committee

A couple of months ago I picked up a set of Gingerbread House Cutters from Lakeland, thinking that it would be a good project to make nearer to Christmas. Turns out that was a good decision as the set is now no longer available on their website, but plenty of other companies make them (You can also find templates online to print out and cut around like this one from Delicious magazine). It's a bit of an undertaking but if you've got the time it's a really fun way to spend a rainy December afternoon.
I baked the biscuit shapes one evening using the Simple Gingerbread House recipe on BBC Good Food, which pretty much consists of melted butter, golden syrup and brown sugar mixed with flour and ground ginger. A good tip for cutting out the shapes is to roll the dough out on a sheet of greaseproof or baking paper so that you can transfer it straight to a baking sheet, as the larger pieces can stretch and break if you try to pick them up and move them. My only tweak to the shapes was to cut out some heart shaped windows on each side of the house. They were baked for around 10 minutes until the gingerbread was firm but not too browned, then cooled for 10 minutes on the tray until they're firm enough to move to a cooling rack. I always use Lakeland My Kitchen Baking Sheets for biscuits and cookies - even without the baking paper nothing ever sticks to them and they bake really nice and evenly.
Once all of the pieces are baked and cooled the real fun begins - constructing the house! Royal icing makes the best 'cement' as it dries hard enough to hold the structure together, but the raw egg whites in the traditional recipe freak me out a bit so I used some Royal Icing Sugar I found in Sainsbury's. It has dried egg whites already included so all you have to do is add water and beat for a while with an electric mixer - easy peasy! I stuck the four sides to the cake board first and left them propped up with glasses for about half an hour and while they were drying 'tiled' the roof pieces with white chocolate buttons. I really wanted to use those chocolate buttons that are covered in hundreds and thousands (Are they called Jazzies? Or have I made that up?) but I couldn't find them at the supermarket. The trickiest bit was sticking the roof pieces on, they were sliding around all over the place and I ended up sitting holding them in place until the icing started to dry a bit.
When it comes to decorating a gingerbread house less is NEVER more. I used 3 bags of white chocolate buttons, 4 tubes of Smarties, 1 large bag of midget gems and 2 packets of Jelly Tots... well it is Christmas after all. And this is the finished product after a light dusting of icing sugar snow:

One of the things I love about gingerbread houses is that no two will ever look the same, and you can completely let your imagination run wild. I'm pretty pleased with my creation but Mini candy canes would be a great addition to the garden, and maybe even some Lindt chocolate reindeer on the roof! If I'm being totally honest this gingerbread recipe isn't the best I've tried, it could do with a lot more ginger and maybe some other spices, but it is very crisp when baked which is useful for building houses. Now we just need to decide if we're going to eat it or keep it as a decoration!
