Kelly spirit rides again as sympathisers gang up on Beechworth jail developer
WHEN authorities installed iron gates outside the old Beechworth prison in the late 1800s, they intended to thwart attempts to free Ned Kelly sympathisers.
As town residents peer in through the imposing white bars today, they cannot help but feel locked out of decisions about the historic site's future.
Opposition is mounting to plans to redevelop the prison and surrounding grounds, where a young Ned Kelly served sentences spanning two years in the early 1870s and was held during his committal hearing for murder in 1880.
The 147-year-old jail, listed on the Victorian Heritage Register, was shut in December 2004 when a minimum-security, 120-bed prison was built just out of town. Salmore Developments secured the site, including buildings, from the State Government for more than $1 million through a tender process.
Heritage Victoria is considering an application by the Melbourne-based developer to subdivide the land behind the main prison buildings into 23 allotments, including 18 residential blocks where some two-storey townhouses may be built.
The developer also intends to convert the former jail's interior, transforming it into a hotel, restaurant and retail precinct.
Mal Wilson, who lives opposite the site, says the community has had virtually no contact with developers about their plans and has been denied access to the site. The grounds have shown signs of neglect, including overgrown gardens.
"We're frustrated and we're trying to frustrate the developer," Mr Wilson said. "It's undeniable that we have very little power in the decision. The only thing we can do is bond, and create a barricade to the process."
A hastily convened public meeting this month to oppose the plans attracted 100 residents, and more than 1000 signatures have been collected in a petition.
Among those against the plans is well-known Kelly historian and local resident Ian Jones.
He says the iron gates symbolise the bushranger's influence. In 1879, about 20 suspected Kelly sympathisers were held in an attempt to limit support for the Kelly gang, but prison officials feared the original wooden gates would do little to stop a break-out.
Mr Jones says a more "holistic" approach that pays respect to the site's history is needed for the development.
"When you drive into Beechworth from Wodonga, the first sight of the jail will be a miniature suburb and concrete walls," he said.
"And meanwhile the jail's rotting. I can't be convinced that there was ever a serious plan for the use of the main jail complex."
Heritage Victoria has received 40 submissions about the developer's application. Executive director Ray Tonkin says a decision is expected within a month.
He stresses that the application relates only to the subdivision of the land, and the developer will also need a planning permit from Indigo Shire Council.
Any further development or building at the site would require a separate heritage permit. "The owners haven't come forward with any specific proposals for the old building," Mr Tonkin said. "We would weigh those up."
Salmore managing director Sam Lawson says the furore is disappointing and fuelled by misinformation. He believes the company has always been clear about its intentions.
"What we've said from the outset is that it's stated in the Heritage Act that all of the historic elements of the building can't be touched, have to be looked after and maintained," Mr Lawson said.
"That's set in stone. I have to do that, and will do that. That's why I bought the place — its historical significance."
The council met the developer late last year for a briefing, and is not totally opposed to Mr Lawson's plans. However, councillors recently rejected the application before Heritage Victoria, citing several concerns including that "the proposal fails to provide a whole-of-site approach to development and reuse".
The council's chief executive, John Costello, says any plans considered by Heritage Victoria should include details of what is on the cards for all buildings and areas inside the jail walls.
The council also wants Heritage Victoria to ensure safeguards are in place so the developer properly maintains the place.
"The whole place has to be maintained and not left to rot. (The developer) bought the place and has just left it to sit there," Mr Costello said. "In the end the council has to do grounds maintenance, looking after the gardens, walls, buildings."
Cr Andrew Banks wants the council to go a step further and ask the state and federal governments to buy back the jail, returning it to public hands.
He says the jail, the nearby old courthouse where Kelly was tried, telegraph station and police lock-up form the most "intact gold-rush governance precinct" and must be preserved.
"Just because it's tucked away 300 kilometres from Melbourne doesn't mean it's any less significant than, say, Pentridge or the Old Melbourne Gaol," Cr Banks said.
"I just think we as a community, state and federal governments, Australia as a nation, have made a mistake by selling this, and we have to be big enough to admit that."

Few can argue that computers have changed people's lives for the better, connecting the entire world via a convenient communication platform as well as providing a boundless source of both information and entertainment.

Those who use computers regularly should be especially vigilant about what they share online in order to avoid potential fraudulent use.
New Body Cameras Bring Yet Undetermined Consequences
In the wake of numerous publicized police shootings of civilian suspects, the public outcry has resulted in police officers in many cities being required to wear body cameras. These cameras record the actions of police officers as they respond to calls and conduct traffic stops. The Chicago police department began using body cameras at the beginning of 2015 in the Northwest Side Shakespeare District. There are now 2,000 body cameras spread across about a third of the city's police sectors. It was recently announced that the police department would expand their use.
When prosecutors hide evidence during a trial
When a defendant in Illinois is first handed charges, the investigation into their case is usually not complete. In fact, a lot of evidence may be discovered up to the date of the final ruling. If prosecutors find evidence that may point to the defendant's innocence, they are obligated to reveal it to the criminal defense attorney.

So today when she got into the car after school and told me her throat hurt, my motherly instincts told me right away that she had strep throat. I drove directly to urgent care, because I knew if I waited an extra day to get her into the regular pediatrician, I was looking at at least 48 hours of Disney Channel sitcoms, and I was not going to let that happen.
We got to urgent care and sat in the waiting room watching, of course, "A Bunch of Smart-Mouthed Kids." Well, it didn't matter. I was an excellent mother! A proactive mother! A vigilant mother! I had seen this bout of strep coming a mile away! The doctors would be all, "Ooooooh! We've never seen a mother spot strep throat so early! Let's all gather in the waiting room and give her a standing ovation! Let's climb up on the chairs and call her, 'O Captain! My Captain!'"
Except it wasn't strep.
And that's good. It's "Hallelujah!"-type good. It is good that she doesn't have a bad disease, and also very, very good that she gets to go to school instead of watching the Disney Channel. I'm just wondering when my motherly instincts will ever be correct. All of the moms on "A Bunch of Smart-Mouthed Kids" make it look so easy. Then again, most of them have talking dogs and nannies to help them.

Ordinary Medicines That May Fight Cancer
Every week a new cancer diagnosis hits a headlines. Immunotherapy drugs, that partisan a body's possess defence complement to quarrel disease, are a latest rage. Although they urge presence rates, they come during a high price. The yearly cost of some a many new drugs can tip $250,000 a year.
Surprisingly, successful treatments might already be in your medicine cabinet, and they might cost customarily pennies a day. Some are common over-the-counter medications, and new investigate shows that all quarrel cancer. They include:
• Aspirin. An essay published in a Journal of a American Medical Association found that patients who used aspirin after being diagnosed with colon cancer had a 29 percent revoke risk of failing from cancer than aspirin nonusers. In addition, those who used aspirin for a initial time after a diagnosis of colon cancer reduced their risk of colorectal genocide by 47 percent.
University of Oxford researchers found that a daily aspirin reduced a risk of building cancer of any kind by about 25 percent when compared to controls who didn't take aspirin. After 5 years, a risk of failing in a organisation holding aspirin was reduced by 37 percent.
A Chinese investigate found that women who took aspirin lowered their risk of building lung cancer by 50 percent if they'd never smoked — and a whopping 62 percent if they smoked.
Researchers from Oregon Health and Science University found that aspirin kept colon cancer from spreading. They knew that platelets, a blood cells concerned with clotting, recover chemicals that boost a expansion of carcenogenic cells, and a expansion of tumors. But when they total platelets with nonmetastatic colon cancer (cells flourishing customarily within a colon) and nonmetastatic pancreatic cancer cells with aspirin, they found that a platelets were no longer means to kindle a cancer cells to grow and spread.
• Antihistamines. Antihistamines, that are customarily used to control a flowing eyes and runny noses of allergies, seem to retreat a effects of a form of dungeon (myeloid subsequent suppressor cells) that reduces a body's ability to quarrel tumors. Researchers during Virginia Commonwealth University found that expansion expansion was topsy-turvy when they injected mice with antihistamines.
"Antihistamines might be one of a many ordinarily used over-the-counter drugs, though this news shows that we still have most to learn about their intensity benefits," pronounced John Wherry, Ph.D., Deputy Editor of a Journal of Leukocyte Biology.
• NSAIDs. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are inexpensive, over-the-counter painkillers. Non-prescription NSAIDs embody Advil (ibuprofen), Aleve (naproxen), and Motrin (ibuprofen). Prescription strength NSAIDs embody Celebrex and extra-strength (800 mg) Motrin. A Danish investigate published in a Annals of Internal Medicine found that a unchanging use of NSAIDs offering long-term insurance opposite colon cancer. Taking NSAIDs for 5 years lowered colon cancer risk by adult to 45 percent. The investigate showed that aspirin was also effective, nonetheless to a obtuse degree. NSAIDs, like aspirin, might assistance quarrel cancer by tamping down inflammation.
• Acid reflux drugs. Ranitidine and famotidine, dual drugs that are found in both Zantac and Pepcid AC that provide poison reflux and peptic ulcers, boost a body's defence complement and revoke a expansion of tumors, according to a investigate from Dalhousie Medical School in Halifax, N.S. Researchers found that regulating a drugs on a daily basement slowed a expansion and widespread of cancer in mice genetically automatic to rise breast cancer.
"Our experiments have shown earnest results; we found that daily diagnosis of ranitidine or famotidine indifferent a expansion and widespread of breast tumors in mice," pronounced a study's categorical instructor Dr. Jean Marshall.
• Mebendazole (MBZ). Mebendazole is an inexpensive, OTC remedy used to quarrel parasites and is mostly used to provide pinworms, tapeworms, and roundworms. Although a drug has been dropped in a U.S., it has been authorized by a FDA to provide parasitic infections, and it can be systematic online underneath a names Antiox, Combantrin, Ovex, Pripsen, and Vermox.

This spring has seen a rise in sales compared to the same period last year and there have also been an encouraging number of 1st time buyer property sales. This may be attributable to the slight easing of mortgage lending criteria and to lenders such as Nationwide Building Society beginning to re-engage with the 95% mortgage market
Viewings in April and May have presented sellers with a mixed picture. Some properties have attracted good numbers of viewers despite the interruptions of the holiday weekends, whilst others have remained steady
A great presentation and attractive selling price remain paramount factors in achieving a successful sale, but the lenders' constraints on mortgage lending remains the dominant factor
Our outlook is that prices are likely to remain at current levels for the time being until the demand - supply equation begins to return to positive territory

Kisan Credit card (KCC) is a type of credit card specially designed for farmers as a form of credit for their cultivation and other needs. Banks may choose to issue EMV (Europay, MasterCard and VISA) chip, and RUPAY compliant chip cards with magnetic stripe and pin with ISO IIN. The farmers can use their KCC to purchase agriculture inputs such as seeds, fertilizers, pesticides etc. and draw cash for their production needs.
The usage of Kisan credit card has many advantages. The borrower need not worry about timings of his bank or bank holidays to withdraw the cash. The ATMs in the neighborhood provide round the clock payment services. This helps card holders to draw money, at any time convenient to them. The cash can also be withdrawn through BC (banking correspondent). The Payment to the input dealers can be made by swiping the card on POS machine held by the dealer. Payment of Utility bills electric bill, water bill etc. can be made through online card payment which saves time and money to visit bill collection offices for cash payment.
The other advantage of payment made through KCC is that it is error free. In cash payments, there is a possibility of short payment or excess payment or difficulties in tendering exact changes at payment counters. The Kisan card holders do not face the danger of inadvertently accepting counterfeit notes as it happens in cash transactions. Carrying Kisan credit cards while traveling is much safer compared to carrying cash. The cash if stolen, the chance of getting back is difficult, whereas if the card is stolen the thief cannot utilize the card unless he knows the numeric password (PIN). The Cardholder can also immediately report to the card issuing bank to stop the transactions of the lost card.
All farmers other than marginal farmers are eligible to apply for KCC
Fixation of credit limit / Loan amount:
For cultivating single crop (short term crop) in a year, the credit limit under the Kisan Credit Card is fixed on the following assessment. The Scale of finance for the crop (as decided by District Level Technical Committee) x Extent of area cultivated + 10% of limit towards post-harvest/household/ consumption requirements + 20% of limit towards repairs and maintenance expenses of farm assets + crop insurance and/or accident insurance including PAIS, health insurance & asset insurance. For subsequent years, first year limit for crop cultivation purpose arrived at as above plus 10% of the limit towards cost escalation / increase in scale of finance for every successive year (2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th year).
For long term loan limit, the following method is adopted.
The short term loan limit arrived for the 5th year plus the estimated long term loan requirement will be the Maximum Permissible Limit (MPL) and is to be treated as the Kisan Credit Card limit. The credit limit of the card will vary according to repayment schedule drawn as per the economic life of the proposed investments. However, the total liability at any point of time should be within the drawing limit of the concerned year.
The bank may ask for suitable collateral security if warranted as per their policy.

It rains a lot in Seattle in the spring ... and the winter ... and the fall ... and disappointingly, sometimes even in the summer. Needless to say, we have ample opportunities to play in the rain. S and I wanted to give rain painting a go. Unsure of which process would give us the most beautiful rain paintings, we decided to try three different methods and compare them. Since S knows it's best to keep as many things the same as possible in an experiment, she decided to the same three colors (red, yellow, and green) in each method.
First, using a Ziploc baggie and a kitchen mallet, we broke up several colors of inexpensive watercolors (the kind with the little oval cakes of paint). S sprinkled them all over one sheet of watercolor paper.
Next, in a tray, I gave her food coloring to drip on a new sheet of watercolor paper.
And finally, for the third method she added liquid watercolors to another sheet of watercolor paper.
Then, with S in her trusty pink rain boots, we took each painting outside and observed.
After a few minutes, here's what the hammered watercolor cakes looked like:
Here's what the food coloring looked like:
And here's what the liquid watercolors looked like:
Both S and I thought that the most beautiful rain painting was made with food coloring. We were both surprised to see how very different the results of each method were. And now when we want to make a rain painting, we always use food coloring.

Partner Event
Institution: OECD
Location: Paris, France
Date: 15-16 January 2018
Enhancing international cooperation in the field of migration
Migration has moved to the top of the policy agenda in many countries around the world, and as a result there are renewed calls for States to invest in improving data on migration. There is an urgent need to improve the availability, international comparability, timeliness and quality of migration data. Statistical projects and initiatives on migration and migrants are currently underway in many countries in national statistical institutes, relevant ministries and institutions, research centres, as well as in several international organisations. However, these initiatives often remain fragmented, confined to each discipline and are not usually brought together and disseminated in a comprehensive and integrated manner.
In this context, the OECD, IOM and UNDESA jointly organised the first International Forum on Migration Statistics. This is aimed at becoming a regular event that will contribute to intensify the exchange of information, to promote mutual learning and to facilitate cooperation among relevant stakeholders. It brought together all producers, analysts and users of migration statistics in a community of interest centred on migration measurement issues. It mobilised expertise from a wide range of disciplines - such as political science, economics, demography, development, geospatial science, sociology, statistics, and information technology - that can contribute to improve global understanding of the migration phenomenon.

Daylight Nuisance time
"A day is as long as it is going to be. No moving of the clocks can make a difference in the length of our days… I know of a farmer in the state of New Hampshire who does not observe this ritual. The cows know milking time, he says, in spite of what the clock may say. He calls this Daylight Nuisance Time and lives half the year out of sync with the rest of the country."

Aaaaah, the memories...
Me and Mel...so glad you were there!
There he is...A-Rod himself, Oh wait it's Travis...hard to tell the difference!
My new friend Nicole...Love her!
So last Tuesday our softball season ended. I made it! I, Margie Virginia Peterson was on an athletic team. I have to say, there were a few times that my bat actually connected with the ball! However, there are also a few times that my bat did not connect with the ball. I don't think I ever caught the ball at any time all season, but I did have some fun moments. I met a new friend (Nicole!), and got to hang out with my old friend (Melanie!). I don't think I will be playing on a team again due to my uncoordination, lack of throwing ability, lack of catching ability and unfailing need to pee everytime I run (thank you Lincoln!). That about covers it. I'm pretty sure nobody will be disapointed by that. However, I do think the right field at Barnes park just might miss me. The unfortunate thing is that occasionally a ball does come flying into right field. Luckily, I will no longer be there to miss it. Thanks for the memories! Maybe I will talk Travis into taking ballroom dancing lessons or something......maybe not.

From NPR:
Officials are trying to reassure Flint residents that they will still have access to free bottled water, filters and cartridges, as Michigan Radio reported.
"We have heard from many residents … that's there's a deep concern that the federal government and state are going to pack up and pull out of Flint after August 14," State Police Captain Chris Kelenske said Wednesday, according to Michigan Radio. "I'm here to tell you that that assumption is completely false. I want to be extremely clear: August 14 is just a date on the calendar."
Since President Obama issued an emergency declaration in January, the federal government has paid for 75% of the costs of the bottled water, filters and cartridges. Now, the state will pick up the entire bill. That's estimated to cost about $3.5 million every month, as Michigan Radio reported.
We've gone into depth about the roots of this crisis in a timeline that you can find here. As we have reported, the problem began when Flint switched to a new water source in 2014 in order to save money but failed to implement corrosion controls. Here's more:
Lead is especially dangerous for children, and can cause "learning disabilities, behavioral problems and mental retardation," the World Health Organization said.
An independent task force determined that primary responsibility for the crisis lies with a state environmental agency called the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality — though others are also to blame.
And while Flint is still in the slow process of treating its water system, the city received good news yesterday from Virginia Tech researchers who were among the first to expose the lead problem. They found "no detectable levels of the toxin in nearly half of 162 homes tested in July," as The Associated Press reported.
"This is nearing the end of the …

Egypt's ruling military reassured its international allies Shabbos that there would be no break in its peace deal with Israel following the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak, and it lay out the first tentative steps to keep Egypt's economy and state functioning while it figures out how to overhaul the country for greater democracy.
The military statement, aired on state TV, was its first, cautious attempt to define the next steps after Mubarak handed over power to a council of his top generals and resigned on Friday in the face of an 18-day wave of popular protests.
Israel was pleased with the statement. "The long-term peace agreement between Israel and Egypt has contributed much to the two countries and is a cornerstone of peace and stability for the entire Middle East," Prime Minister Netanyahu said Shabbos in a first official comment on the matter.
In addition, Defense Minister Ehud Barak spoke with the head of Egypt's military council, Mohamed Tantawi, in an apparent preservation of ties between Egypt's interim leaders and the Israeli government.
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman also spoke of the occurrences in Egypt, during a ministry meeting called to discuss the matter. "Israel will not get involved in Egypt's internal affairs, and our only concern is that regional stability is maintained and the peace treaty honored," he said.
The preserving of Mubarak's last government was likely to disappoint protesters, thousands of whom remain in their camp in Cairo's central Tahrir Square. Many of them have demanded more dramatic steps like the dissolving of parliament and the scrapping of the current government to form a broader-based transitional body to oversee reforms until elections can be held.
The military's statement did not rule out these steps might still be carried out.
A spokesman for the Armed Forces Supreme Council underlined the military's "commitment to all Egypt's international treaties."
Israel has been deeply concerned that Egypt's turmoil could threaten the 1979 peace accord signed between the two countries. The United States, Egypt's top ally, is also eager to ensure the accord remains in place. The military strongly supports the accord, not in small part because it guarantees US aid for the armed forces, currently running at $1.3 billion a year.
Anti-Israeli feeling is strong in Egypt, and many of the hundreds of thousands of protesters expressed anger at Mubarak's close cooperation with Israel on a range of issues. Still, few seriously call for the abrogation of the treaty, realizing the international impact.
Muslim Brotherhood 'not seeking power'
Israel's fears may be further allayed by the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group viewed with suspicion by the United States as well, which said on Saturday that it was not seeking power and praised the efforts of the new army rulers to transfer power to civilians.
"The Muslim Brotherhood … are not seeking personal gains, so they announce they will not run for the presidency and will not seek to get a majority in the parliament and that they consider themselves servants of these decent people," it said, adding that they were not "seekers of power".
"We support and value the sound direction that the Higher Military Council is taking on the way to transfer power peacefully to create a civilian government in line with the will of the people," it said.
Military spokesman Gen. Yahya el-Fangari asked the public, particularly the millions in the government sector, to "work to push the economy forward," a call for the economy to keep running after the disturbances of the past three weeks.
The military also called on the "current government and provincial governors to continue their activities until a new government is formed," el-Fangari said.
The military is "looking forward to a peaceful transition, for a free democratic system, to permit an elected civil authority to be in charge of the country, to build a democratic free nation," he said.
The statement left unanswered the key question of how long the current government would stay in place: Whether it would continue on a longer term until a new one is elected, or whether the military intended it only as a stop-gap to keep the state functioning until it appoints a transitional leadership.

Case Studies
|Arthritis Research Campaign
|Audit of needs for information on arthritis
Arthritis Research Campaign (arc) is the fourth largest medical research charity in the UK. It funds research into arthritis and other musculoskeletal diseases and educates doctors, medical students, allied health professionals and people with arthritis on these subjects. arc currently publishes over 90 booklets and leaflets on specific conditions, drug treatments and the challenges of living with arthritis. These are distributed via clinical settings and practitioners and can also be downloaded from the internet. Given that nearly two and half million such leaflets are distributed each year, there is clearly a requirement for this information. However, arc lacked feedback from users as to whether it was answering their questions effectively and needed to find out whether it could improve the content and mechanisms it uses to reach people and thereby meet their information needs better.
Eleven group discussions were conducted with people with different groups of conditions at different stages of a journey from first symptoms, to diagnosis, through to living with a condition for many years. They included two groups of people who suspected they might develop arthritis in the future and a group of people caring for someone with arthritis. Six depth interviews were conducted with people with rarer conditions such as lupus and juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Some of the groups were with people who actively used the internet to seek out information while others were made up of people who either did not use the internet or preferred other methods for finding information. The groups were pre-tasked to look for information about their condition and according to their preferences, either via the internet or by looking at booklets they were sent. Some of these booklets were published by arc, some by other charities.
The research showed that much of what arc is doing is along the right lines; it uses the main channels that people favour in looking for information and what it tells them addresses many of the issues that people want help with in a pretty accessible way. The key obstacle was the difficulty of ensuring that the people who wanted the information could find it or were given it. The research provided interesting insights and valuable information to help arc in planning the development of their information provision including how people varied in their desire for information (a working typology was provided), the potential for providing information to help prevent conditions arising, a catalogue of questions that people would like answered, the relative roles of booklets and the internet in addressing them, and guidance on the tone and design of the information.

MSP Alex Fergusson has pledged his support to help Breast Cancer Now stop women in Galloway and West Dumfries dying from breast cancer.
At a Scottish Parliamentary event hosted by Breast Cancer Now, to mark the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October), Mr Fergusson joined fellow parliamentarians from across Scotland to meet with scientists, campaigners and people affected by breast cancer in a bid to tackle the disease which takes the lives of 1,000 Scots every year.
Mr Fergusson said: "Survival rates for breast cancer have increased dramatically, but that doesn't mean it is under control.
"More people are being diagnosed with the disease and almost 1,000 women lose their lives to breast cancer in Scotland each year, action is required now.
"Breast Cancer Now is currently investing £1.6 million in Scottish research to find ways to treat, prevent and stop breast cancer and I'm delighted to give my backing to such important work.
"I will do my best to raise awareness of breast cancer, promoting the signs and symptoms of the disease and encouraging others across Galloway and West Dumfries to get involved too.
"Everyone has a part to play to ensure that one day every woman who develops breast cancer will live."
Pledges like this from parliamentarians form part of Breast Cancer Now's broad portfolio of work around a central aim of stopping women dying from breast cancer by 2050.
Launched in June 2015, Breast Cancer Now believes that research holds the key to developing new ways to prevent, detect and ultimately stop breast cancer.
The charity currently invests £1.6 million in cutting-edge Scottish research, funding nine research projects across the country.
Mary Allison, Director for Scotland at Breast Cancer Now said, "It's great to have Alex Fergusson MSP backing our ambition to stop women dying from breast cancer.
"Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and, this year, more than 4,600 women in Scotland will be told that they have the disease. It's a growing problem that needs our attention and commitment, so we're going to ask the big questions, and work tirelessly to answer them.
"By standing together with politicians, scientists, fundraisers and campaigners we will find new ways to prevent, detect and treat breast cancer so that by 2050 this disease will no longer take the lives of those we love."
Edinburgh mum of four, Lesley Brown, is living with secondary breast cancer. She gave a speech at the Scottish Parliamentary event to tell her story.
She said, "One day while out jogging I noticed I was breathless, and a week or so later I developed a dry cough. I went to my GP and he sent me for a chest X-ray.
"A CT scan quickly followed, and it was after that that my life fell apart – I was told I had primary breast cancer that had spread not only to my lungs, but also to my liver and bones.
"The shock at being told, out of the blue, that you have incurable cancer is indescribable.
I was devastated again, when I heard in April that the cancer was active again in my lungs, and that it had also spread to my brain.
"I know that breast cancer will beat me one day but I want to help to ensure that other women, and their families, will not have to face what I'm going through."

United By the Spirit
With Rev. Bill Comfort (6/26/16)
Listen to an audio recording of today's reflection:
Galatians 5: 1,13-15
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself." If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Luke 9: 51-62
As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan village to get things ready for him; but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem.
When the disciples James and John saw this, they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them?" But Jesus turned and rebuked them. Then he and his disciples went to another village.
As they were walking along the road, a man said to him, "I will follow you wherever you go."
Jesus replied, "Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."
He said to another man, "Follow me."
But he replied, "Lord, first let me go and bury my father."
Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God."
Still another said, "I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family."
Jesus replied, "No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God."

I'm basically famous now
I promise I won't let fame go to my head, I will stay grounded and never forget all of you. What the piss am I talking about? I'll tell you! But that will have to wait until later. We're exactly 3 weeks from classes starting and I'm starting to freak out slightly (just kidding I'm freaking out a shit load, is shit load one word or two? shitload. Yea, that's better). I received and email with my summer reading and I already feel like a teenager again. I live at home, I'll be a college student ummm wow that was depressing. Fuck. Let's move past the school stuff because if I talk about it too much I'll freak out and move to California for 3 weeks again. Don't make me do it! What's the next order of business? Ah yes the comedic recapping of my life since we last spoke. Grab a seat...not that one...that one is better...a little closer please...look me in the eye...ok, now we can begin. An event rolled into town last week, a unique one. This event is certainly outside of the box so when Shane saw it was coming to Boston he scooped tickets as fast as he could. That event was Point Break Live!
Now we all know the 90's classic Point Break starring one Keanu Reeves and the unforgettable Patrick Swayze (rest in power Bodhi). Think of Point Break Live as a community theater production of the movie with more improvised comedy. The best part of the show is they use an audience member to play the mighty Johnny Utah. Before the movie Shane, Keegan and myself procured ourselves some meatball subs from Pinocchio Pizza. According to Shane this is Ben Affleck's favorite pizza spot and if Batman is eating there then I need to as well. The acquisition of meatballs subs is a tradition that Ethan and myself started before watching Point Break due to the famous line delivered by the insane/charming Gary Busey "Utah! get me two!" referring to the amount of meatball subs he needs during a morning stake out. Sadly Ethan couldn't make it to this performance so I ate my sandwich in his honor. After the delicious subs we walked to the theater and were met by a Good Humor truck giving away free ice cream! It was amazing and we clearly indulged. With that I must mention I'm slightly lactose intolerant. After waiting in line to get in and grabbing a beer the culmination of the cheese-covered meatball sub and brick of ice cream I ate, my bowels wanted to have a word with me. So while casting the lucky crowd member as Johnny Utah I made my way to the bathroom and proceeded to spill half my drink while cleaning the toilet seat, but I saved the other half.
(I saved this half, yes I'm on the toilet)
The Show was hilarious and a fun time, they shot the crowd with water guns and had me doubled over in laughter the whole time.
(This dude playing Gary Busy's charter Pappas was a madman)
When Point Break Live was done I decided to head to a poker game and try to make a little money. This turned out to be a good decision, half the players in the game were either high or drunk. I took full advantage of the situation and went home with a few hundred extra dollars. Oh and I didn't go to bed until 4am, which isn't ideal for real humans but alas I am not one of those. I played a few more poker sessions with mixed results but ultimately I'm up some money this week. I played at my favorite home game in Boston, up in New Hampshire with the dumpster people and Foxwoods (my old office). The trip to Foxwoods was a rough one, winning seemed impossible until 2am when I won a big pot and won back all the money I was down (roughly $300).

After that hand at Foxwoods I was up a few bucks and decided to make a break for it. All in all my game is solid but could use a a lot of work. Most of my poker winnings are going to the laptop fund and frivolous spending fund (but not by choice).

Last summer I made it a point to make many beach trips (my goal was 20 but I came up short with 13) and this summer I'm blowing it big time. Here are the issues with that, I have softball in Boston on Saturdays and that dicks up my day pretty hard. Saturdays are the ideal beach day of course but driving from Beverly to Boston then back to the north shore leaves me at the beach around 4, which blows. That all changes this Saturday, I made a tacit agreement with myself and I'm fucking sipping cocktails while the waves crash in the distance. I have made some late day beach trips though. Me and my homegirl BB packed a cooler and hit the sand in lieu of deck drinks at a local watering hole. I also decided that jumping in the water was necessary, mostly because I needed to pee and it seemed like the best option. Sorry fish.
(BB was just hanging out in the hole for some reason, weird)
(BB took this, that's the ocean I peed in)
Summer and I also made a beach day attempt one faithful Saturday but after about 2 hours were met by rolling thunder storms and a rather comical torrential down-pouring of rain. It was like a scene out of a shitty romantic comedy except it was just annoying and ruined my relaxing day of ogling Summer in a tiny bikini. The rain attempted to ruin our day but we decided to have adult beverages and I had a few too many on an empty tummy and have dialed back my alcohol consumption (*sips glass of whisky*) since that day. I like to enjoy a cocktail or 4 but it doesn't need to be a regular thing so partying will be cut down a bit for old Matty McFly. Don't fret folks, I'm fun sober and tipsy (I think).
(hahaha ok maybe that's a little much)
(stock photo of me drinking...and looking like James fucking Bond)
Since we last sat down and had a heart to heart chat about my life and you listened intently, I have done some serious movie watching. One night I caught a midnight viewing of Drunken Master (1978) this is one of those old Jackie Chan movies that was remade after he became popular in America.
(I feel that Jackie)
We watched the original and it was pretty great, I was coincidentally drunk during the viewing. Shane is a big kung fu fan so I met him and Keegan at the Brattle Theater for the flick. It was a fun kung fu festival of kicking and whatnot but it was WAY too long. Another faithful night Shane and myself kept with the theme of fighting and caught a midnight screening of Fight Club.
The mighty Coolidge Corner theater (my favorite place on earth) was showing a 35mm print. The print was pretty banged up at points but it fit the theme of the movie and drew a really good crowd. I haven't seen that movie on the big screen since its original theatrical release in 1999.
Myself and pile of kids I played hockey with saw the movie back then and foolishly decided to start our own fight club. Just a bunch of kids beating the piss out of each-other in my friend Luke's basement. Very dumb. Next movie! While attempting to see Batman: The Killing Joke, Keegan and myself found ourselves on the wrong side of a sold out theater. We didn't want to call it a wash so we went and saw Star Trek Beyond instead. It was no classic Batman comic realized on the big screen but it sure was a dope movie. I was never a Star Trek fan but these new movies are a fucking blast to watch. I highly recommend this third installment which was directed by Fast and the Furious's Justin Lin. Last Monday I decided to finally go see the new Ghostbusters movie with my big bro Jamie. Jamie and I LOVED Ghostbusters growing up so I was nervous but he had high hopes. This movie is fucking awesome, I was dead wrong (pun) to doubt it.
(Me and big bro)
(get em girrrrlllsssss)
The cast was fantastic, the special effects were captivating and it was god damn hysterical. If you're on the fence about this movie you should hop over and stop being a pansy. Sure it has some goofy parts but it's a movie about catching ghosts, of course it has goofy parts. Well done ladies! I'm even going to see it AGAIN! This time in 3D and possibly while high on wacky tobacky. Also Kate McKinnon is the funniest person on Earth, hands down. While we're on the topic of movies (I'm on this topic a lot) let's discuss the trailers that were released at San Diego Comic Con.
They released a pile of trailers this year at comic con but I really only give a shit about two. First; Wonder Woman, this movie looks insane! Think Captain American: The First Avenger but make it a woman who is basically a god. The trailer had amazing action and Gal Gagot is nothing short of radiant and an utter bad ass. Another point for the ladies, I love it.
(queen bad ass)
The second trailer that I clearly freaked out over was for Justice League and I've watched it over 20 times. First thoughts, it looks incredible but I felt the same way about the Batman V. Superman Dawn of Justice trailer and was slightly disappointed by the movie itself. Justice League appears to have adjusted and added a slight sense of humor, which the DC movies need. This trailer highlights Arthur Curry (Aquaman) played by the ultra hunk Jason Momoa having exchange with Bruce Wayne which leads to a great line of dialogue.
(this one)
(you know)
(get em)
I was bummed I couldn't be at comic con, I'll try again next year to get tickets. I went once a few years back and I had a fucking blast. Lucky for me had a couple friends there who I asked to send me pics of the more choice highlights of the Con. Actually I just wanted pics of them with this Batman statue and they delivered.
(statue of Batman from Frank Miller's epic Dark Knight Returns comic book)
(My homegirl Alex tracked him down VERY quickly while on break from her many many duties with Blizzard)
(look who my lovely friend Reena found!)
Speaking of Batman (I speak of that a lot) while in the process of writing this blog post I watched Batman: The Killing Joke and I wasn't impressed. It was disjointed, the female lead wasn't represented well and the ending was a letdown. Oh well! Bring on Suicide Squad!
(I touched her boob, Joker was PISSED)
Oh! You're probably curious why I said all that jive about being famous when we started off today. Well, my episode of Wahlburgers aired last week! It's called five card studs or something moronic like that. You can see the side of my face while Donnie is presenting a trophy to his uglier brother.
Soooooo me and Donnie are basically best friends now and we're launching our own spin-off called Donnie love's Matt where we plan celebrity vacations then join them and hilarity ensues. Kiddinggggggggggggggggg of course, but it was funny seeing my handsome mug on TV. Well, that should do it for this week, I'm finishing this post on my iPad while at a poker game. I need to focus on making some tuition money! Until next time folks, thanks for reading.
Keep smiling (even when you have to wait more than a year to see Justice League)
(we had slush day at work, I shamefully had 2 and my nails looks gross. sorry)
(Narragansett throwback cans, like from Jaws!)
Here comes from more pics from Justice League because fuck it.

Bye folks!

To be brilliant —
and therefore, be anything else we desire —
We must adopt models.
A model is a particular way of thinking and seeing. Systems in place to act upon.
It can be something you create, or something you adapt from someone else.
In fact, people we look up to are models (role models).
Ideally, you have a model for each area you want to be brilliant at,
and to do that, you find models of excellence to test and make into your own.
A model is something you work towards every day — something you continuously iterate and improve —
but it's worth it because it works for you.
Meaning, you don't have to start from scratch, you have a framework to build upon.
And if (when) I fail miserably some days, that's okay because it's not one and done —
models are daily practices towards brilliance (and success).
Challenge Accepted: Find Models of Excellence
"In order to grow we must be open to new ideas.. new ways of doing things.. new ways of thinking." — George Raveling
"If you can't find a good role model, be one." — Gale Anne Hurd
"Each person must live their life as a model for others." — Rosa Parks

text: As much as I love Reno, the surroundings, and so many dear friends and neighbors, a deep primal craving for more fertile soil, and more green and blue, launched me on my gypsy tour. The theme "follow the love" became interchangeable with "follow my heart" and "follow the beauty", which I found in and through everyone I met and everywhere I went. Setting out in my newly acquired 1995 VW Eurovan camper already named Roy and christened with an above windshield owl Liz, I found many edges to self, and went beyond most. I had the often daily opportunity to choose how I wanted to feel: secure or insecure. Without much of a game plan, I lived much more by intuition and desire. 54 nights in Roy, spending most of my time in state and national parks and forests, living simply in gratitude, appreciation and joy; letting time unfold at its nature-pace, surrendering many conceptions of how things should be. I found my next home in Bellingham, Washington – a teeny "butterfly house" – part of old farm homestead on the edge of town – worn and wild – just like me, just like me.

Disasters—natural ones, such as hurricanes, floods, or earthquakes, and unnatural ones such as terrorist attacks—are part of the American experience in the twenty-first century. The challenges of preparing for these events, withstanding their impact, and rebuilding communities afterward require strategic responses from different levels of government in partnership with the private sector and in accordance with the public will.
Disasters have a disproportionate effect on urban places. Dense by definition, cities and their environs suffer great damage to their complex, interdependent social, environmental, and economic systems. Social and medical services collapse. Long-standing problems in educational access and quality become especially acute. Local economies cease to function. Cultural resources disappear. The plight of New Orleans and several smaller Gulf Coast cities exemplifies this phenomenon.
This volume examines the rebuilding of cities and their environs after a disaster and focuses on four major issues: making cities less vulnerable to disaster, reestablishing economic viability, responding to the permanent needs of the displaced, and recreating a sense of place. Success in these areas requires that priorities be set cooperatively, and this goal poses significant challenges for rebuilding efforts in a democratic, market-based society. Who sets priorities and how? Can participatory decision-making be organized under conditions requiring focused, strategic choices? How do issues of race and class intersect with these priorities? Should the purpose of rebuilding be restoration or reformation? Contributors address these and other questions related to environmental conditions, economic imperatives, social welfare concerns, and issues of planning and design in light of the lessons to be drawn from Hurricane Katrina.
Eugenie L. Birch is Professor and Chair of the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of Pennsylvania School of Design. Susan Wachter is Richard B. Worley Professor of Financial Management and Professor of Real Estate and Finance at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Together, they direct the Penn Institute for Urban Research.
