American philosopher-poet George Santayana said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." The United States is repeating history today with desperate people huddled at our southern border hoping to get in.
They're being held at bay — but for different reasons than in 1914, when European Jews were escaping from the Germans at the outbreak of World War I, and denied entry to the U.S. because they were Jewish. It happened again in 1939, just before the start of World War II.
That action followed the same pattern of discrimination against Asians that tarnished American history throughout most of the 1800s.
The Canadians did the same thing in 1914 against Sikhs fleeing persecution in India and seeking safety in British Columbia.
Because of those policies by both nations, Jews and Sikhs died.
On May 13, 1939, the MS St. Louis with 937 passengers aboard — mostly Jews escaping the Nazis — sailed from Hamburg, Germany and headed for Havana, Cuba where they expected to wait until receiving clearance to travel to the United States.
They never made it.
The trip across the Atlantic was pleasant enough. Children played on the deck and swam in the pool. Friday prayers were permitted — even allowing Hitler's portrait to be covered during services. They enjoyed the dance band, watched movies and had better meals than they remembered having back home.
A boy named Lothar Molton travelling with his parents called the trip, "a vacation cruise to freedom."
Once the ship anchored in Havana Harbor, everything changed. Cuban President Federico Laredo Brú had cancelled their authorization papers a week before the ship left Germany. Hamburg-Amerika officials knew it, but the passengers didn't.
The right-wing Cuban press supported Brú by demanding that no Jews be admitted to the country. Adding fuel to the fire, Manuel Benitez Gonzalez, director-general of immigration was exposed as having illegally sold landing certificates to the refugees for $150 or more, amassing a personal fortune of $500,000 to a million dollars.
The Great Depression was making jobs hard to find, so Cubans resented bringing in refugees to compete for employment — including the 2500 Jews already admitted.
Five days before the St. Louis sailed, Cubans knew about the pending arrival, and 40,000 took to the streets to protest. It was the largest anti-Semitic demonstration in Cuban history.
Former Cuban President Grau San Martin rallied crowds to "fight the Jews until the last one is driven out."
The St. Louis arrived in Havana on May 27, and the government allowed 28 passengers to stay because they had proper documents. Twenty-two of them were Jewish.
One passenger attempted suicide and was taken ashore to hospital.
Lawrence Berenson, an attorney from the U.S.-based Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) arrived to negotiate on behalf of the passengers, but failed.
On June 2, President Brú ordered the St. Louis to leave. Slowly, the ship sailed for Miami, hoping for the best.
When they arrived off Miami, U.S. Coast Guard ships patrolled to make sure no one jumped overboard to swim to shore and freedom.
Passengers sadly watched the lights of Miami twinkling in the distance.
Some passengers sent cables to President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor asking for help. "We never received a reply from FDR or Eleanor Roosevelt, whom we asked to save the children on the ship," said passenger Herb Karliner.
The State Department however sent a telegram telling the passengers. to "await their turns on the waiting list and qualify for and obtain immigration visas before they may be admissible into the United States," though at the same time American diplomats in Havana "informally" joined Berenson in continued negotiations — all to no avail.
Two smaller French and British ships with Jewish refugees on board were also blocked by the Cubans.
While the American press generally deplored the St. Louis refugee troubles, there was little enthusiasm in the U.S. to do anything about it.
Canada also refused to accept the refugees, Frederick Blair, director of the Immigration Branch stating that "No country could open its doors wide enough to take in the hundreds of thousands of Jewish people who want to leave Europe. The line must be drawn somewhere."
The ship sailed back to Europe, with the Nazi invasion of Poland just ahead — its odyssey called "The Voyage of the Damned."
All of this delighted the German Foreign Office and the Propaganda Ministry that hoped to show the world that nobody wanted the Jews, helping justify the Nazi regime's anti-Jewish goals and policies.
The Canadians created a similar incident in 1914, but their target was Sikh refugees from India.
In Hong Kong, Sikh Baba Gurdit Singh chartered a dilapidated ship called the Komagata Maru and filled it with 376 passengers that included 340 Sikhs mostly from the Punjab, 24 Muslims and 12 Hindus — all British subjects.
They were escaping difficult times in British-ruled India.
Their destination was Vancouver, and they were purposely challenging Canada's exclusionary laws.
It happened during a time when Canadian culture was characterized by xenophobia, racism and government policies to keep certain foreigners out.
Canadian exclusionary laws in 1908 required that immigrants must come from their native countries to Canada "by a continuous journey and or through tickets purchased before leaving the country of their birth or nationality," later adding that "No immigrant of Asiatic origin shall be permitted to enter Canada unless in actual and personal possession in his or her own right of two hundred dollars," followed by some fine print.
The law effectively stopped immigrants from India because it was virtually impossible for ships to sail the long distance to Canada without stopping to refuel and resupply.
A Global News report from Canada stated, "more than 350 people were denied entry to Canada and sent back across the Pacific Ocean — some of them to their deaths — because they weren't the right colour or religion."
The Canadian government wouldn't let the ship land, so it sat in the harbor for two months.
The passengers tried to force the government's hand by going on a hunger strike. When it appeared that the ship might sail to Japan, the passengers hijacked it.
Finally, the Canadian Government had enough and sent the cruiser HMCS Rainbow to force the ship to leave.
With thousands lining the shore of Coal Harbour expecting a battle, the Komagata Maru headed back to India without further incident.
Arriving in Calcutta on Sept. 27, 1914, the ship was stopped by a British gunboat, and the passengers placed under guard. When they tried to arrest Baba Gurdit Singh and about 20 others, a riot broke out and 19 passengers were killed.
It was a dark chapter in Canada and India's history.
While the Canadians were keeping the Sikhs out, the U.S. was similarly hostile towards Jews. In 1917, when America entered the war, Jews were called "slackers' and "war profiteers." Even the U.S. Army manual told recruits, "The foreign born, and especially Jews, are more apt to malinger than the native-born."
President Woodrow Wilson to his credit ordered the manual recalled after complaints from the Anti-Defamation League.
The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum reports that of the 907 passengers aboard the St. Louis that were forced to return, 288 who went to Britain survived the war, except one who died in a German air raid. Of those who went to continental Europe, 365 survived, while 254 were murdered during the Holocaust — most of them at Auschwitz and Sobibór.
After the war, some of the St. Louis voyage survivors were admitted to the U.S.
In May 2016 before the House of Commons, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau formally apologized on behalf of the government for the Komagata Maru incident; and today, Sikh Harjit Singh Sajjan is Canada's minister of defense, formerly serving in The British Columbia Regiment (Duke of Connaught's Own) in Vancouver — the same regiment that enforced keeping the Sikhs out in 1914.
In 2012, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William J. Burns told 14 surviving passengers of the St. Louis, "To the survivors of the MS St. Louis, on behalf of the president and secretary of state, I am honored to say what we should've said so long ago — Welcome.
"Our government did not live up to its ideals. We were wrong."
Today's "right" American ideal is "border security."

Survivor who made it to U.S….
"In terms of the St. Louis, we who have come to the U.S. had to come to terms with what it would be like to enter a country that began by rejecting us. And I have accepted the fact that the government of 1939 was not the government of 1946 when I arrived here. Thank goodness eyes were opened — not completely, but somewhat — and I was then allowed to come to the United States and establish my life and pursue my dreams."
— Eva Wiener, passenger on St. Louis at age 2
Canadian apology…
"As a nation, we should never forget the prejudice suffered by the Sikh community at the hands of the Canadian government of the day," he said. "We should not and we will not."
— Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (2016)
FDR's decision…
"FDR and his administration turned their backs on a series of desperate Jewish pleas for asylum. Bureaucrats were instructed to obfuscate and delay all Jewish applicants in every way; they certainly did so. According to Krakow, the Virgin Islands stood ready to accept the passengers. Secretary of State Cordell Hull and his minions threw up every conceivable roadblock. The law only allowed them to accept tourists; what was the return address of these refugees? Dachau?"
— The Jewish Voice
Fate of the ship…
After the failed voyage to freedom, the MS St. Louis became a German naval accommodation ship from 1940 to 1944. At Kiel, Germany she was heavily damaged by the Allied bombings, then repaired and used as a hotel ship in Hamburg. She was sold for scrap in Bremerhaven in 1952.
The heroic captain…
Gustav Schröder, captain of the St. Louis was a hero. On the return voyage to Europe he refused to return 907 passengers to Nazi Germany, and instead arranged for the passengers to be accepted in Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Britain. After the war, he was honored by both Germany and Israel. He died in 1959 in Hamburg at age 73.

didigo's USB Flash Drive with Bi-Stable Cholesteric LCD
Talking about USB flash memory sticks, I already mentioned HAL 9000 usb memory unit.
Scanning blog sites I came across this neat looking memory stick. Definitely warrants a mention. This sports a Bi-Stable - Cholesteric LC display (translated: A liquid crystal display capable of holding on to the image without power and without refresh for a long time - no batteries required). I'll say this appears to be the neatest memory stick I have seen so far (if you are not too finicky like me about the size i.e.). Do check this out.

Daughter dating a felon
Could he be a lying and manipulative individual who always has criminal intent on his mind? Does the fact that he was a felon have ANYTHING to do with it? In fact, I know more people who *should* have gone to jail but have managed to stay out, that are far worse than some people I know who went to jail and did their time. Do you even realize that in the different examples I just gave you, the guilty person would be radically different from the next? Did he go out to buy an ounce or two of grass, and got busted in the wrong sting? Was he a mule and transporting several kilos of cocaine across international borders? He deserves someone who can see the past he is actively leaving behind.But reality TV wasn't for her, and she left after one series.Why do people always ask advice about situations like this, as if they should be allowed to keep their eyes and ears closed, and just follow the advice blindly? Was he a dealer living in a pimped out apartment selling whatever drugs people wanted? Your asking this question shows that you can't see past the past he is leaving behind. Either you need to become a better person, someone worthy of the second chance he has earned, or you need to find someone with a past you can live with.The former NFL running back-turned-actor is a convicted armed robber and kidnapper.TOPSHOP heiress and former Made In Chelsea star Chloe Green has hit the headlines for dating the man once known as 'the world's hottest felon'.
The football star will also have a sizable nest egg waiting for him, having made over 0,000 from his NFL pension in the time since he has been in prison.
The controversial tycoon, who recently suffered a £135m profit crash, is the owner of a string of retailers including Topshop and Topman, and is the chairman of retail company the Arcadia Group.
Chloe, meanwhile, is a socialite and keen Instagrammer, although she recently deleted her Instagram account.
He has addressed that his romantic connection may sway some voters, saying: 'If that's the will of the people, that's the will of the people...
I hope to keep [the campaign] to the issues.'One of his campaign signs is planted in front of her house but he admitted he 'probably should not be talking about the Simpsons without their permission'.

Five days ago a Xiaomi device, codenamed M1804C3DE appeared on TENAA and from the looks of it, it was the upcoming Redmi 6. Today a new entry appeared on the Chinese regulator's website, revealing a slightly bigger phone, that is most likely the Plus version, similar to the Redmi 5 and Redmi 5 Plus duo.
Since it sports a 12 MP + 5 MP dual camera setup, it might also be named Redmi Note 6 or Redmi 6 Pro.
Xiaomi Redmi 6 Plus/Pro on TENAA
The addition to the Redmi 6 series will have 5.84 screen with Full HD+ resolution. The ratio is 19:9, meaning it will have a notch. This will be the first Redmi phone with a cutout on its screen, following in the footsteps of the Mi 8 flagship.
The Redmi 6 Plus, or whatever it ends up being called, is coming with an octa-core CPU clocked at 2 GHz. This means it will be either the Snapdragon 625 or the newer Helio P60, both of them already seen in other Xiaomi phones. Memory options will be – 2/16 GB, 3/32 GB, and 4/64 GB and a microSD slot is available for more storage.
Is this the Xiaomi Redmi 6?
TENAA lists the phone with Android Oreo 8.1. In all likeliness it will run the new MIUI 10 that will become official in three days
Dimensions of the Redmi 6 Plus/Pro are 149.33 x 71.68 x 8.75 mm and weight is 178 g. The body packs a 4,000 mAh battery and will arrive in a rainbow of colors – Black, Rose Gold, Champagne Gold, White, Blue, Red, Pink, Gray, and Silver.
We are yet to see if Xiaomi will give us a glance of it at its event on May 31 or if it will debut at a later point.

seems the "powers-that-be" preferred Adi Granov's designwork (far left) done for the Marvel Comics' Iron Man Extremis mini-series (written by Warren Ellis) instead.
What to Consider When Designing the Iron Man Suit:
01. HEADSPACE = either the actor's head's not too big or the helmet has to be a tighter (and uncomfortable) fit. if not, based on human proportions, it'll be a "bobble-head" instead of a "shell-head" (Iron Man's nick in da comics :p)
03. DO YA LIKE MY BODY = a buffed-up actor's body is just gonna be a tighter-fit (and less of a "surprise") for Iron Man. remember, he's not Batman, whose trained his own body to be a deadly weapon ... Tony Stark's suit of armor is the weapon. (unless of coz tis all "thought-activated", then tis Tony's alcoholic-mind lah)
04. THESE BOOTS ARE MADE FOR FLYING = gotta give that man a pair'o chunky-boots. why? becoz he doesn't want to burn his feets with his rocket-blasts ... and becoz it could add height to the man.
which means Tom Cruise is out. he's gonna end up looking like the Bicentannial-Man, innit?
05. DON'T SWEAT DA DETAILS = loadsa details are good i reckon, altho might be tad too distracting ... mayhap working with similar tonal colors, with detailing captured as textures via the lights? or mayhap, "less is more"
and here's my (token) proposed design [click to view larger image], with the joints and metal-skin surfaces being an organic metal substance that oozes out of the main-armour joints to connect to each other. ya gotta lurve da chunky-boots, eh? well, i do anyways ... *heh*
and then i read this:
"On July 22, 2006 at the San Diego Comic-Con, Favreau confirmed that the villain for the upcoming film would be the Mandarin. He also announced that, "The suit will be more like a weapons platform than a flying suit – more of a War Machine-feel to it." [via] - so it still might be "chunkier" than we thought, huh?
what's your proposed Iron Man armour-design? email me wif pix or links to your design please, thanks :)

UPDATE: (Wednesday, 12:53 p.m.) It appears that the Mayor Alan Andreani administration tried some "surprise" maneuvering at last night's meeting as evidenced in the administration's move to introduce a replacement ordinance near the very end of council session last night to lock in a $8,500 "temporary" appropriation of outside legal counsel funding.
In summary, there is nothing new as of this update as to whether or not there will be a veto override attempt by council to undo what Alliance law director Jennifer Arnold says is the status of the original administration proposal of a $10,000 appropriation of the "temporary" funding of outside legal counsel.
Councilwoman-at-Large Julie Jakmides is standing by her current assessment that the mayor's veto of council's action on December 28, 2017 to reduce the $10,000 appropriation to $0 was an illegal act of the mayor in that it is a violation of the U.S./Ohio "separations of powers" provisions which have the effect of making the executive, legislative and judicial branches of U.S. and Ohio government "co-equal branches of government.
There are political analysts who say that sooner rather than later America is heading for a constitutional crisis in the battle between Donald Trump, some in Congress (all of the Democrats, and, perhaps a few Republicans) and Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller over Mueller's investigation into criminal conduct (two guilty pleas already [Flynn and Papadopulous] on the part of Trump administration/transition team/campaign team officials, if not the president himself.
While nobody is alleging any criminal conduct in the Alliance council/administration standoff over the mayor's veto of council's December 28th resolution paring down the amount for outside legal counsel in 2018, it appears to The Stark County Political Report that a simmering dispute on the level of administration expenditures for outside-legal-counsel between Councilwoman-at-Large Julie Jakmides and Mayor Alan Adreani is escalating rapidly towards a "separation-of-powers" constitutional crisis that has the potential to create legal precedent for Ohio's political subdivision on the proper dividing line for the legislative and executive branches of government on
government finance.
In a nutshell, Councilwoman Jakmides (chairperson of council's Finance Committee) has led a effort to challenge the Andreani administration in its 2018 budgeting for the funding and hiring of outside legal counsel from an asked for $10,000 by reducing the number to $0 in a temporary budget (likely running until mid-March, 2018 before a permanent budget is passed) that council passed on December 28, 2017, to wit:
(Note: see Temporary Budget in Appendix, Item 3)
On January 1 (a legal holiday, mind you), Andreani fired off a veto of Ordinance 80-17 to council. (See letter as Item 1 in the appendix at the end of this blog)
It seems likely that an attempt to override the mayor's veto will take place at a special meeting of council scheduled for tonight at 6:00 p.m.
Adding fuel to the fire in Alliance is the fact that Law Director Jennifer Arnold appears to be solidly in the Andreani camp evidenced by her legal opinion on the matter (see letter as Item 2 in the Appendix at the end of this blog) even though she as the Alliance law director has the responsibility to provide legal advice to all of Alliance government.
Here is what Jakmides says about the prospects for an override:
First and foremost, I am not entirely confident there are enough votes for the required supermajority we would need to override the Mayor's veto. While I can say with substantial certainty that there will be at least four votes to override, I'm just not sure if the necessary fifth vote is there. There is an effort underway to earn that fifth vote.
Here is how the SCPR thinks the vote will turn out:
The key person as to whether or not there will be an override seems to be Ward 2 councilwoman Cindy King.
Newly elected councilperson Brian Simeone (a Democrat) says that he would not be surprised if King were to vote to override. But, he emphasized, he does not know that she will.
Sheila Cherry is said to be a definite "no" vote as is Roger Rhome.
So WHAT IF council fails to override Andreani's veto?
Again, Councilwoman Jakmides:
If the votes are not there to override the veto, I can guarantee there will be litigation. (emphasis added)
. . .
I would hate to see it come to that, but I am certainly willing to do so in order to establish the difference between right and wrong, and the proper separation of powers.
Jakmides "guarantee" may indicate that a constitutional crisis is looming in Alliance government that might end up be decided the Ohio Supreme Court perhaps even the U.S. Supreme Court.
Want to talk about legal expense to the city of Alliance in that taxpayers would be funding both sides' legal expenses: Wow!
While Ward 3 councilman Larry Dordea's focus in on his effort to separate the safety/service responsibilities now under the directorship of Michael Dreger, he does not disagree with Councilwoman Jakmides that Law Director Jennifer Arnold's (she was last elected to the position in 2015 and is up again for election next year having been opposed by Jakmides support Democrat Mark Whitaker) management of the law department is inadequate especially on the matter of hiring of outside counsel on matters that ought to be handled by Arnold and her staff.
In her campaign for re-election to council in November, 2017, Jakmides made, as a focus of her appearance in a University of Mount Union sponsored candidates forum of October 31, 2017, the reining-in of outside legal expenditures by Alliance's administration through 2017 (thought to be about $75,000).
Here is the core of the her differences with Andreani administration and as expressed by Jakmides on her Facebook page:
Councilwoman Jakmides describes Clemans-Nelson thusly:
The "consulting" firm Clemans Nelson which specifically self-identifies as NOT being a law firm has undoubtedly received a lions share of the $75,000, but they do so through creative means.
Despite having been retained through a one-year contract that expired in 2013 or 2014 for a narrow purpose, they have remained a constant suck on the city's coffers by providing a vast array of Human Resources-esque work, including a number of tasks I personally find unnecessary, redundant, and/or the job of the Law Director and her office.
Furthermore, Clemans Nelson has associates who conveniently offer their legal services when the work Clemans Nelson has generated ends up in more formal proceedings. One individual who has billed the City substantially is Attorney Matt Baker, an employee of Clemans Nelson who happens to have a law practice based at the same address. (emphasis added)
Democrat Brian Simeone (elected councilman at large) is all in with Jakmides on the need for Alliance to shed itself of a relationship with Clemans-Nelson
As is Councilman Larry Dordea.
It will be interesting to see if tonight's council meeting results in success for Dordea in his quest to have council split up the safety/service functions of Dreger's current job.
Tonight's meeting is a critical one as providing a clue which path that the two co-equal branches of Alliance government is going down.
- One of working out differences and going forward as a mutual check and balance on one another. or
- One of discord and disharmony which might possibly lead to the legislative branch taking the executive branch to court to establish its co-equalness.
Item 1 - Andreani letter
Item 2 - Arnold legal opinion
Item 3 - Temporary Budget

Campus Health
Occupational Health
Common Injuries
Unintentional injury is the fifth leading cause of death in Indiana and in the United States. Fatal occupational injury statistics between 2011-2015 are available.
Eight hundred workers lost their lives in 2015 due to a fall. Occupational activities and home maintenance provide ample opportunities to experience falls. Fall protection information can be found at the OSHA site.
How can falls be prevented?
- Place ladders on a firm, level surface. Never place a ladder on ground or flooring that is uneven, soft, or wet.
- Don't over-reach or lean too far to one side when you're working on a ladder�you could lose your balance and fall. When you're on a ladder, your bellybutton should not go beyond the sides of the ladder.
- Wear appropriate, properly-fitting shoes when doing activities that require you to climb. Keep shoelaces tied.
- Keep in mind that falls can occur from surfaces other than ladders. Watch where you are walking and pay attention to curbs, cracks in the sidewalk, and other items in your way.
- Use the railing and pay attention while walking down stairs.
- Eliminate tripping hazards in your home. Remove boxes, electrical cords, and other barriers from walkways.
- Place a slip-resistant mat or stickies on the floor of your shower, and place a rubber-backed rug outside of the shower to step on when you exit the shower.
- Immediately clean up spills.
- Fix loose areas of carpet or loose flooring that can lead to trips and falls.
- Avoid excessive alcohol intake, which can lead to falls.
- Increase lighting in dark areas to improve visibility of hazards.
What should be done after a fall?
- First-aid should be used to treat any minor injuries, such as abrasions or sprains. The Self-Care section of this web site provides guidance.
- If you think you might have a broken bone, visit a healthcare provider or the emergency room.
- Determine if emergency care is needed.
When should emergency services be utilized (calling 911 or visiting an emergency room)?
If the fall victim experiences the following signs of head trauma:
- Has a loss consciousness for any amount of time, experiences confusion, or is drowsy.
- Has a low breathing rate or drop in blood pressure.
- Has convulsions.
- Has a fracture in the skull or face, facial bruising, or scalp wound.
- Has fluid drainage from the nose, mouth, or ears (may be clear or bloody).
- Has a severe headache.
- Has initial improvement followed by worsening symptoms.
- Becomes irritable (especially children), demonstrates personality change, or behaves unusually.
- Is restless, clumsy, or shows a lack of coordination.
- Has slurred speech or blurred vision.
- Is unable to move one or more limbs.
- Has a stiff neck.
- Vomits.
Work-Related Injuries
Occupational injuries must be reported within 24 hours of their occurrence or on the next business day if they occur on a weekend or holiday. An IU Injury Form must be obtained from and signed by your supervisor and brought to the clinic. Simple falls at home or school that are not work-related often can be treated at home. See a healthcare provider if musculoskeletal injuries do not improve after one week.

MTR Corp. has recently come under fire a 10-hour delay of train services on the Kwun Tong line last Saturday. According to media reports, the MTR could be fined at least HK$20 million by the government for the service disruption.
Nevertheless, while politicians from across the political spectrum and some members of the public are all jumping on the "gotcha" bandwagon against the MTR, perhaps we should also bear in mind the fact that commuters in Hong Kong aren't alone in having to suffer from train service delays.
True, there is plenty of room for improvement as far as the MTR service is concerned. However, to be fair, we are actually a lot more fortunate and better-off than we realize when it comes to train service because the MTR has been performing much better than many railway operators in other major cities in the world in terms of punctuality and safety.
And you can tell that just by looking at the numbers because numbers don't lie. In 2016, the overall punctuality rate of the MTR was 99.9 percent. In comparison, the train punctuality rate of the New York subway was only 63 percent, while that of the London underground was 85.2 percent.
In fact train service in Hong Kong not only outperformed those in New York and London, but also that of Tokyo as well. In 2015, every train in the Tokyo subway network suffered an average 12-second delay. And in July alone this year, there were over 20 days in which train service along the busiest Ginza line in downtown Tokyo suffered substantial delays during peak hours.
In particular, on July 26, almost every train along that line suffered an average of 10-minute delay throughout the day.
As far as safety is concerned, the MTR also outperformed Japan Railways (JR) by a significant margin. For example, last year alone, there were seven incidents of train derailment, and several hundreds of train collisions with obstacles on rail tracks, other vehicles and humans.
In comparison, just a few minor train collisions as a result of railway suicide attempts were recorded in Hong Kong last year with no cases of derailment whatsoever. In other words, commuters in our city are perhaps among the luckiest few, if not the luckiest, in the world compared with our counterparts in other major cities.
Neither the MTR nor the government should feel complacent about the 99.9 percent train punctuality rate, because I believe our fellow citizens deserve the best possible quality of service.
However, in the meantime, shouldn't we also be a bit less harsh on the MTR and start to appreciate the high-quality train service we are already enjoying right now?

first the entire thing was to be a foreign built entity.
the dots renigged and said they would do site prep.
then they renigged once more and said their labor would also do the common tasks, like cement pour and conduit runs.
then they decided theyd do it all and seized the blueprints, and for the Russians to do the high tech, or did it themselves, and whalla? A fertilizer complex.
What could go wrong?
Indian government led by PM Mr. Narendra Modi taking steps for making India as Modern India the programs like Literate India Neat Clean India the central government Eco friendly schemes to save Earth save Water quite appreciable, the vision of Mr. Modi towards betterment of nation has widely accepted world wide.

As far as I'm concerned those statements could have applied months before Trump was elected.
But the all-out, undisguised campaign to DESTROY Trump is different than anything we ever saw before.

AVR Machine Organization¶
Our simulation is at a point where we can move data (which we call "signals" from component to component and generate some output to display what is happening. That much is great, but we need to get a better feel for how the various pieces that will make up our computer system tie together, and hat each component needs ot do.
Since we are building our simulator based on a real part, let's take a peek at how that system is organized internally.
Initially, we will focus on just the processing unit itself, leaving out other features of the real system for the time being.
Here is a PDF file containing a slide show we will usein class:

The boys are back!
The size of Team PA Pestilience again DOUBLED in 2016. From two people in 2011, to four people in 2015, to eight team members in 2016. It seems like the word is getting out about RAGBRAI in the northeast, and people want to be part of it.
Because we were an all male team this year, the trip had a decidedly male flavor to it. Here is what I mean by that comment:
- More beer drinking than in past years.
- Less "getting off the beaten path". This group was fairly direct.
- Not as many words. I'll leave that comment right there.
This is not to say that we weren't diverse as a team. We had the following dynamics:
- Members from all over Pennsylvania
- Ages from 13 years to 63 years.
- Occupations from I.T. to school teachers, to students, to sales, to construction.
Some notable phrases (that may become inside jokes over the years):
"All good looking hookers are police."
"It's all about the money."
"KYBO backsplash is an epidemic that must be addressed"
"Where's Larry?"
"Hairball is the best band ever"
"Shake It Off, is the best song ever"
"Rick Springfield is the angriest man ever."
I really enjoyed the ride this year. Yes, it was different, but they are all different. That's what is great about RAGBRAI: it's never the same trip twice.
Take a look at the video and photos below. If this seems like a trip that might appeal to you, you can push the button at the bottom of the page to get the next upcoming trip details, costs, and to reserve your spot.

Day 97
Hardly breaking news, the Wall Street Journal ran two articles on the benefits of exercise in yesterday's Health & Wellness section.
"The Hidden Benefits of Exercise," and "Why You Should Step Up Your Workout"
If you don't have a subscription to the WSJ you can't read the articles online (although you can see the image from their website, above), so I'll sum them up for you:
The first article cites research from the CDC, Harvard Medical School, JAMA and elsewhere that tells us exercising 30 minutes, 5 times a week, even in moderation, can lower the risk of breast cancer death by up to 50%, lower risk of colon cancer by 60%, and can decrease depression as effectively as Prozac or behavioral therapy. Women who exercise regularly have been proven to have a 20-30% less chance of developing breast cancer than those who do not.
Perhaps most relevant to the cold and flu season, regular moderate exercise is now known (aka statistically indicated) to boost the immune system and reduce the number of colds, flu, and sick days people experience by up to half.
"'No pill or nutritional supplement has the power of near-daily moderate activity in lowering the number of sick days people take,' says David Nieman, director of Appalachian State University's Human Performance Lab…" and further, "So while reducing obesity is an important goal, 'the better message would be to get everyone to walk 30 minutes a day,' says Robert Saliss, co-director of sports medicine at Fontana Medical Center…"
Walk 30 minutes a day, and live longer. Great message, I love it. It sets a target goal that's reasonable, and one that just about anyone can carry out with very little change in lifestyle, work hours, or leisure activity. If you absolutely do not have 30 minutes a day to walk around your block or on the treadmill or from the train to your office, I want to know who you are!
But back to the WSJ.
No doubt realizing such an article was likely preaching to the converted, the Journal ran a piece below that one citing Berkeley exercise scientist Dr. Paul Williams' 20-year studies that show increasing the amount, duration, and intensity of exercise even for long distance runners has dramatic health benefits. Advocating runners push themselves to regularly do more than 40 miles a week, Williams also advises middle-aged runners increase mileage by about 1.4 miles a week each year to avoid weight gain. He's been shunned by many in the public health field, though, because experts fear the message of more more more can discourage people and lead them to do less, little, or nothing at all.
Balance, my friends. And routine. More or less, but stick to it.
Like my friend Jenny, who's made a simple vow to go to the gym every single day. She has a full-time job, two children, and a nice apartment in NYC to maintain.
"I say to myself I'm going to get on the elliptical for 20 minutes a day. That's it. If I do more, fine. But if I only do 20 minutes, that's fine, too."
And friends, let me say, Jenny's looking mighty fine since she made that resolution.
Now why don't they write about that in the Wall Street Journal?

Nothing major, just pouting.
With our income taxes I was really hoping for a new camera and some new clothes and shoes for me. Considering how pathetic my clothes and shoes are (which I am too embarrassed to admit on the internet) I was just really looking forward to it.
Of course bills come first.
It's just that everyone always comes first. The girls, Howard…which I don't mind but to have a few items of clothing without holes or stains would be super. I always put my family first and that will never change. Just the possibility of having some things for me got me very excited and now I am totally bummed out.
1 comment so far
I know that feeling all too well. Seems like there is always something else that is more important.

Twitter, Facebook meet Big Brother
Uncle Sam wants to read your tweets and Facebook updates — and, in some cases, already scours your feeds.
Federal agencies have realized they can mine social media for intel to help thwart potential terrorist strikes, keep tabs on domestic protests and better help citizens after a natural disaster. But privacy groups are clamoring for Congress to intervene, likening it to Big Brother.
Story Continued Below
"That's a gray area we're all trying to define," Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-Pa.), chairman of the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, told POLITICO. "The concept that the government would somehow be monitoring and storing inquiries of individual Web activities — many would find that disconcerting."
It's a reality in the social-media generation, however. The federal government informally has been combing Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other social networks for publicly available citizen tidbits for years. Now, several agencies — the FBI and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency included — are seeking custom tracking technologies to help them scrape social-media sites by computer for certain keywords or trending topics that could help provide them with real-time intelligence.
Privacy advocates have taken to the courts to fight federal agencies to comply with Freedom of Information Act requests on these programs, which they are concerned have the potential to not only invade privacy but silence peaceful dissent.
"I think the government itself is a little schizophrenic on this," said Jim Dempsey, vice president of public policy at the Center for Democracy & Technology, a cyberliberties group.
"On the one hand, there's clearly the appropriate desire to say, 'When a hurricane hits, we want to get information on the ground.' Then there are others that say, 'We also want to hear about protests and demonstrations,'" Dempsey added.
The Department of Homeland Security has drawn quite possibly the most public scrutiny for its online tracking efforts. The agency now mines Twitter and Facebook for a list of hundreds of keywords, ranging from "snow" to "cyberattack." DHS contends the monitoring program is limited in scope and focuses only on events, not people.
Still, two privacy groups — the Electronic Privacy Information Center and the Electronic Frontier Foundation — have filed separate lawsuits against DHS over the release of documents about policies and contracts governing its social media monitoring program. EPIC is also calling for DHS to suspend its program in light of recent disclosures.
Lawmakers aren't sitting on the sidelines either. DHS's top privacy officials were grilled in front of Meehan's subcommittee in February and could have to answer more questions in the future.
"We're still concerned about who actually was directing the investigators to make specific inquiries," Meehan said of the DHS social media monitoring program. "We do intend to follow up on this, on this issue."

When taken as a pre-workout supplement, AMRAP Nutrition Beta-Alanine helps to improve endurance, decrease muscle fatigue, and aid in recovery. Each scoop of AMRAP Nutrition Beta-Alanine delivers 2,000mg of the all-natural amino acid to power you through your workouts.
Beta-alanine works by raising carnosine levels in the muscles and preventing a drop in pH, which is a major factor in muscle fatigue. Studies have shown that beta-alanine is especially effective for short-to-medium duration, high-intensity training.

Established in 1935, the Kiwanis Club, and projects like the Christmas baskets, have grown annually. In recent years, the Kiwanis Christmas Basket Program has become a community event. With help from other organizations, such as the Retired Senior and Volunteer Program, Gaylord Community Schools, the Volunteer Center and many other organizations, volunteers support the Kiwanis in their endeavors. Most importantly, say Kiwanians, those in need are helped and reminded that there are people who care and who give.
In recognition of its Christmas basket program, in 2002, the Kiwanis Club of Gaylord was chosen as one of five state finalists for the Michigan Governor's Service Award in the category of service clubs.
The members of the Gaylord Kiwanis Club embody the purpose and spirit of the Governor's Service Award, noted those who nominated the club. They give their time selflessly to help less fortunate members of the community. They offer to others the opportunity to participate. Also, they have chosen to serve their community by becoming involved and making the holiday season a little brighter for families struggling to make ends meet.

The Raiders franchise is getting ready for a move to the city of Las Vegas. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Oakland Raiders are expected to have enough votes from NFL owners to approve their move to Las Vegas.
NFL owners are expected to vote on the Raiders' proposed relocation to the 'Sin City' Monday at around 2 p.m. ET.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that he expects the voting outcome to be "positive".
"I think we will have a vote, and I think we will have a positive vote. I think we are in pretty good shape," Goodell told ESPN's Sal Paolantonio.
Las Vegas city, county and state officials have pledged $750 million in public funding toward a new stadium in Las Vegas and Raiders owner Mark Davis needs at least 24 "yes" votes from the 32 owners to approve the move.
All signs indicate that the Raiders will be Las Vegas bound.

In this month's news roundup we learn about Wisconsin's E-filing activities, news about Ravel Law and Court Innovations, Google's improved ability in language recognition, and some notes about improving communication understanding.
And last, some CTC 2017 educational program agenda news.
Wisconsin Updates E-Filing System and Rules
Via our friend Kendall Collins Smith, we learned about news from the latest edition of their "Wisconsin eFiling Update: Walking on sunshine. There is so much news we share most of it below:
Criminal eFiling changes
Special prosecutors will have the ability to eFile criminal complaints, amended criminal complaints, and information documents.
When eFiling a jury demand, the following three document types will be available: Jury Demand for 6 Person Trial, Jury Demand for 12 Person Trial, and Jury Demand - Other. No fee will be charged for these documents on criminal case types.
Opt-in changes
Attorneys who paid the eFiling fee to opt in for a party that has since been dismissed or withdrawn from a case will no longer be charged the eFiling fee to opt in for an additional party on that same case.
State Public Defender Request for Court Record will be an available document type for attorneys filing on behalf of the State Public Defender's office. Once the clerk processes the filing, the attorney will have the ability to opt into the case.
Using the non-party filer feature, special prosecutors will now have the ability to select the Notice of Appearance document type to notify the court they are appearing on behalf of the plaintiff on a case.
An eFiler's response to the question, "Are you appointed by the State Public Defender or the court?"
(asked when opting into a case) will correctly default the associated opt-in document type based on the selected answer:
- When "State Public Defender" is selected, filers will be required to upload a Public Defender Order Appointing Counsel document.
- When "Court Appointed" is selected, filers will be required to upload a Notice of Appearance document.
- When "No" is selected, filers will be required to upload a Notice of Retainer document
Attorneys filing on behalf of the State Public Defender's office will no longer be charged the Notice of Appeal fee when electronically filing an appeal.
Non-party filers will only be required to complete CAPTCHA once per visit to the eFiling website.
When the Petition and Waiver of Fees/Costs, Affidavit of Indigency and Order (CV-410) is filed and the petition is granted, the fee waiver will be valid until entry of final judgment. The party/attorney will not be charged fees for any documents filed on the case, with the exception of the Notice of Appeal.
What's on the horizon?
We'll be in touch soon about another release slated for the not-so-distant future. Upcoming changes involve interface improvements to further streamline eFiling and added features, like the ability to eFile amended garnishments. Stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks.
Congratulations to the Wisconsin Judicial Branch. Impressive work!
Court Innovations Closes Funding Round
Via press release on June 6, 2017 – "Court Innovations, the first spin-out from University of Michigan's Law School, recently closed its first major fundraising round at over $1.8 million."
"Court Innovations expands access to the courts for citizens who cannot miss work or family care to attend court, or who fear to come to court because of their race, ethnicity, or immigration status. With its Matterhorn product, anyone can use a mobile phone or computer to resolve and negotiate infractions and lesser misdemeanors. Citizens use Matterhorn to resolve traffic and parking tickets, warrants, family court compliance, plea online, or file a small claims civil case."
The press release continues…
"Almost 40% of citizens who have used the system say they could not have come to court in person. For courts, Matterhorn's online case resolution saves time, resources and money, ultimately leading to increased efficiency. Courts case closure times dropped from 50 days to 17 days, and staff time/case dropped from an average of 2.5 hours to less than 30 minutes with Matterhorn. Learn more about courts' outcomes here: getmatterhorn.com/case-studies/
According to the Honorable Chief Judge Brigette Officer-Hill of the Michigan 30th District Court in Highland Park, "It allows officers to stay on the streets. It allows citizens to stay at home, or at work. It allows the judiciary to deal with cases that demand you come to court."
Matterhorn is in twenty-three courts in Michigan and Ohio, and is expanding to Arkansas this summer. With this funding, Court Innovations will continue to expand nationally. It has hired business development and marketing staff in Michigan and on the West Coast. Additionally, it continues to invest in its technology to make additional services available to courts and citizens."
LexisNexis Acquires Ravel Law
On June 8, 2017 a press release announced that LexisNexis acquired the legal research and analytics company, Ravel Law, that we have written about here and here. Per the press release:
"LexisNexis® Legal & Professional, part of information and analytics provider RELX Group, today announced its acquisition of Ravel Law, a legal research, analytics, and visualization platform that empowers users to contextualize and interpret vast amounts of information to uncover valuable insights. The acquisition will expand the LexisNexis Legal Analytics suite of products through full integration of Ravel Law's judicial analytics, data visualization technology and unique case law PDF content from the Harvard Law Library into Lexis Litigation Profile Suite® and Lexis Advance®. The integration of these tools strengthens LexisNexis' position as a leader in the legal analytics space.
Ravel Law's machine learning, artificial intelligence and natural language processing technologies mine published case opinions, providing a wealth of information that helps litigators quickly uncover new insights and build specific arguments for use in court."
"Google's Ability to Understand Language is Nearly Equivalent to Humans"
Regarding a topic that has been asked for by courts over decades, we learned in an article posted on Recode.net that the famed tech analyst Mary Meeker reported: "Google is now able to understand human language with 95 percent accuracy, thanks to machine learning algorithms that can detect speech and respond with meaningful results.
The improvement has occurred at a rapid pace. Since 2013, accuracy has improved nearly 20 percent…"
"And as Google continues to include voice recognition in more of its products, like Google Translate and its mobile and Home voice-powered assistants, the company is moving toward a future where talking to our machines will one day be as seamless as talking to friend."
Improving Communication and Understanding
Via Margaret Hagen's Open Law Lab blog, we learned about actor Alan Alda's Center for Science Communication. Margaret rightly asks whether courts can learn anything from this work. I agree that it can. For example, this article on "No Jargon" is a good starting point.
Also, I wanted to share an experience I had at a new doctor's office. Following my consultation with the doctor, I met with his scheduling assistant. She was amazing. We, of course, discussed the date and times for the follow-up visits. But then she printed out the scheduling documents. Then she used a yellow highlighter to mark and then review the important sections with me. This one-on-one attention was effective and impressive.
With the addition of all the new court technology, it seems like we could set up similar reviews with the people that interact with our court so that they can understand what is going on? Just a thought.

Deadly Atherosclerosis: How to prevent it
Atherosclerosis is a disease process that can lead to the obstruction of coronary blood flow. As a result, the electrical properties of the heart and its inability to function as a pump may be seriously compromised. Abnormal cardiac rhythms (arrhythmias), can be detected by abnormal electrocardiograms.
Atherosclerosis is the most common form of arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and, through its contribution to heart disease and stroke, is responsible for about 50% of the deaths in the United States [and seems to be increasing].
In atherosclerosis, localized plaques, or atheromas, protrude into the lumen of the artery and thus reduce blood flow. The atheromas additionally serve as sites for thrombus (blood clot) formation, which can further occlude the blood supply to an organ.
It is currently believed that atheromas begin as "fatty streaks," which are gray-white areas that protrude into the lumen of arteries, particularly at arterial branch points. These are universally present in the aorta and coronary arteries by the age of 10, but progress to more advanced at different rates in different people.
As this progression occurs, smooth muscle cells and others fill with lipids [fats] to give a "foamy cell" appearance. Later damage to the endothelial lining of the artery [believed to be a vitamin A and essential fatty acid deficiency by nutritionists] causes blood platelets to adhere to subendothelial tissue. Platelets are believed to release chemicals that cause smooth muscle cells to proliferate and migrate from the tunica media to the intima, resulting in a tumor-like growth.
The intercellular space of the atheroma later becomes filled with lipids and cholesterol crystals, and then is hardened by deposites of calcium. …It is currently believed that an intact and properly functioning endothelium protects against atherosclerosis.*
There is good evidence that high blood cholesterol is associated with an increase risk of atherosclerosis. This high blood cholesterol can be produced by a diet rich in cholesterol and saturated fat, or it may be the result of an inherited condition known as family hypercholesteremia [from a heterozygous dominant gene].*

The Things That Dreams Are Made Of
I heard "The Things That Dreams Are Made Of" by The Human League tonight.
Apart from finding it on the net to listen to repeatedly it made me think about what my dreams are made of. In all honesty simple things really. My pipes, decent tobacco. Good wine and a few select friends topped off with fine coffee should do it. Not necessarily in that order you understand. The one thing that I've always dreamed of is driving an articulated truck and last week I got the go ahead to sort out some training in order to achieve that.
I'm also smoking a lot less in order to get fit enough to jog around the park. My e-cigarettes are helping me with that. I haven't given up smoking but I've put it back into an enjoyment category rather than it sitting in the necessity category. What could be better than daydreaming ones way through the nature in the park whilst losing pounds I don't need to be carrying around. I'll get there. Not sure when but I'm making it a reality in small steps.
I decided about a week or so ago that I was going to start taking control of my life and once that decision is made there's no going back. With perseverance I'm making it happen, there's a little luck in there too but that needs controlling also.
Until all of my objectives are complete the above track is my theme tune.
It's all coming together nicely.

for Hornton Apartment
by Beth F, United States
July 2015
"Our Hornton apartment was perfect for our family of six...and as you can imagine, that is a large request! The location was fantastic. We were situated right in between two very accessible Tube stops, Notting Hill and High Street Kensington. We loved all of the delicious food options -- try Ffiona's :) -- and the proximity to Kensington Park We rode bikes there using the rentals from the transit system...so easy and affordable. We could grocery shop easily and often made dinners or breakfasts. We were safe, comfortable and absolutely enjoyed every minute. Thank you for an amazing stay in London."

Union J has announced a special show at Millennium Square Leeds on the 26th July. The show will feature the X Factor hopefuls who came fourth during series 9 of the ITV series in 2012, after three of the current members recruited George Shelley to the band the year before.
Since uniting into one boy band, Josh, JJ, Jaymi and George have released three top 10 singles: Carry You, You Got It All and Tonight (We Live Forever), which have been featured on their two studio albums, both of which have again made an imprint on the UK Top 10 after being signed to Epic records and RCA.
Millennium Square in Leeds is a landmark venue for Union J to be playing in, after so many music legends have played here including Madness and UB40, not to mention a number of modern favourites including You Me At Six and Reel Big Fish. Union J will be joined alongside a selection of promising young artists including Bars And Melody, Sophie May Williams, Only The Young and Luke Friend.

Posted @ January 29, 2016, 11:15 pm under (Fixed Asset Verification, Tagging & Reconciliation)
Indian telecom sector is witnessing a huge growth and Mobile Network Infrastructure Sharing Creating value for the operators, customers and country as a whole.
We at Amitarun help Companies carry out Audit and Verification of their Passive Telecommunication Infrastructure or Passive Assets at shared telecom sites by outsourcing the whole process to our professional team of Engineers, Chartered accountants and team of enthusiastic field staff. A dedicated professional team is seprately involved in compilation of data, reconciliation between fixed Assets Register and Physical Verification Report and supervising the operations. With presence in States like Punjab, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, Assam and Uttar Pradesh we generally finish the verification within given time frame. The association goes beyond completion of verification and we endeavor to help clients in resolving issues emerging even after the sign off.
As per prevailing trend companies are providing cellular operators shared infrastructure, through build own and operate shared passive telecom infrastructure. Passive telecom infrastructure includes the steel tower, BTS shelter, air-conditioning equipment, generator, battery, power supply, fire extinguisher etc. for cellular operators. Operators only need to set up BTS equipments, transceivers, Antennas and other IDU and ODU transmission equipment.
Instead of having own mobile phone transmission towers, it really makes a lot more sense sharing towers (the mobile phone transmission towers) at similar sites as shared infrastructure eventually help operators to reduce tariffs, make services cheaper for consumers and save the reduce cost of infrastructure setup drastically.
Passive Telecommunication Infrastructure constitutes around 65% and active component constitutes around 35% of the total capital cost and with economic growth capital cost of passive infrastructure will go up. Since Telecom infrastructure requires huge investment outlays, such investments may be risky propositions due to the rapid introduction of successive generations of new technology, and even before recovering investments in existing infrastructure there may be a need for further investments in new generation networks. Shared Infrastructure could bring down the passive infrastructure cost of telecom operators by at least 35% to 40%.
Verification of Passive Infrastructure at Shared Telecom site has been challenge over the years with the growth of telecom Industry surpassing all estimates.
India being a vast country, the cost of carrying out physical verification of shared Cell Sites across all regions is very high. Issues such bad weather conditions, low payouts, difficult terrain, inexperienced team have proved to be main deterrents in delivering quality service. There exists a huge gap on the supply of quality service providers for carrying out Verification of Passive assets which we are striving to fill.

WMDs, also known as weapons of mass destruction, are weapons such as nukes, nuclear bombs, atom bombs etc. They are essentially weapons that can kill and bring significant harm to a large number of humans or cause great damage to structures such as buildings.
Kim Jong-il uses the phrase "weapons of mass destruction" numerous times throughout the film. He is using WMDs to cause mass destruction and chaos in countries around the world. His ultimate plan is to use the WMDs to turn every country into a third world country.

We've now had a few weeks to think over the recent announcements from ABC,CBS,FOX,NBC, and The CW about their Fall Schedules. One thing that I appear to get asked a bit in emails and in comments is "Why?" in relation to some show being picked up and another show (usually more deserving in their eyes) not being picked up. So I thought I'd wrestle with that subject for an editorial.
First you have to consider the thinking behind every choice. History has shown us that certain things work and will continue to work for likely ever. I hate to break it to THE MENTALIST fans out there but Patrick Jane isn't doing a whole lot different than what Joe Friday used to provide audiences over 50 years ago. In the course of TV history we've learned a few things: Crime Procedurals, Legal Dramas, & Medical Dramas are watched and watched a lot. Formulaic comedies sell well too. It's generally smart thinking for a Network to have at least one strong Crime, Legal and Medical drama a piece.
So in that regard CBS has been riding high with a lot of extremely successful Crime shows but has lacked a serious Medical based show for years. So it was considered smart to gamble on two different medical shows with the hope of one or both becoming a hit. NBC was losing ER and they too put their eggs in more than one basket. ABC and FOX have their medical dramas so they were able to go after some more niche based titles.
NBC, FOX, and CBS seem to be using rather strategic planning for next season. The shows they chose made sense for their strategy and their current "brand." NBC's decisions may look crazy, but I think that is their brand. FOX and CBS however were extremely careful with their show selections. Sure VIRTUALITY isn't getting picked up and it makes more sense for Fridays than their comedy block but besides that one little blip things almost make sense behind their decisions. PARENTHOOD on NBC is a head scratcher. It didn't work in the 90s, and it's been a long time since the movie. Will audiences care?
ABC is using what I call "The Mud On The Wall Strategy." They're throwing as much as they can at a wall and hoping one sticks. This may actually work, but some of these projects are just downright crazy. V was an 80s hit when it was about Fascism in today's society. It became a quick flop when it left that line of thinking (when the creator was kicked from the project) and I really see this not going down the correct path. Still it could work. However EASTWICK to me is another head scratcher. What were they thinking? The movie was ages ago and they don't have one Michelle Pfieffer type on the cast let alone an actor worthy of filling Jack Nicholson's shoes as the Devil. The Devil is the key to this show, and the best Devil lately on film or TV has been Ray Wise on REAPER. Another TV show based on a movie from eons ago and questionable casting. Sounds like a real winner!
When you look at those shows you can also see a list of shows that weren't picked up. You may have read a leaked script or even seen a leaked pilot or at least scenes from that pilot. These make you go "WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING!?!" The shows not picked up seem better in just about every way you say to yourself and you're confused. CBS for instance had an amazing show called HOUSE RULES. It was easily one of their top 2 pilots. Extremely well written and well cast. It looked really good. They even started staffing for the show. It wasn't picked up.
Why? Well you have to understand that a show must be marketable. Good product comes along often and the morons at the networks don't know what they have or how to deal with it. FIREFLY was pitched to viewers as "From the Creator of Buffy," which really wasn't the route to take. They didn't understand it. NBC had no idea how to market SEINFELD. It was a show about nothing, and they didn't know how to pitch that to the consumer. Right now a show about a group of freshmen representatives in Congress is in their mind "hard to pitch," because they believe right now that their audience is A. Too old. and B. Doesn't want politics in their viewing because right now the political world sucks. So remember it's easier to pick up the show you know how to promote and the people have shown historically they like to watch that style. The tough sells that work and become hits are a true wonder of the world.
The CW however is a different type of company. They don't rely on historical evidence to help them program. They use a Ouija Board. The problem is they've been thinking they're talking to Edgar J. Sherick when in fact the person giving them advice is the late great Rodney Dangerfield. Rodney has been secretly getting the network to crash and burn because Dawn turned down his advice (when alive) of spotlighting hot young comedic talent on the Network that would "make a statement, and shock audiences" (much like FOX used in its early years).

Microsoft working with Apple on future of Virtual PC
Just days after renewing its commitment to develop Office for the Mac, Microsoft revealed that it is also working with Apple to bring Virtual PC to its new Intel-architecture.
According to MacNN, Microsoft said any new version of the Windows emulation application would have to be developed from the ground up for Intel-based Macs because the software is not compatible with Apple's Rosetta emulation environment.
Microsoft reportedly plans wait for receipt of the first shipping machines to better evaluate Virtual PC for Intel Macs as well as determine a release date for Office and Messenger for Intel Macs. AppleInsider | Microsoft working with Apple on future of Virtual PC

Pesto has been my daughter's favorite dish since she was a little girl. I would make it quite often and with many variations so she wouldn't get tired, although honestly, her favorite was the classic pesto made with basil. One of my favorite flavors is the taste of arugula, easy to find during spring, and perfect for making a delicious pesto. This time I made it with walnuts but I've also prepared it with pecans, pistachios, pine nuts, sunflower seeds, and cashews. Each of these nuts or seeds add a different and unique taste, unlike any other kind of pesto you can buy at the store. Since this is a raw sauce, I recommend the use of high quality ingredients. Fresh garlic, a good olive oil, freshly grated cheese, and fresh tender herbs. You probably know that pesto can be added to many more dishes. I love to add it to freshly cooked rice. I also like to add it to cherry tomatoes for a nice little snack or on toast in place of butter. A spoonful goes great with minestrone or tomato soup. And it can also be a great way to season steaks or fish. When I have a good amount of herbs that I don't want to go to waste, I make a large batch of pesto and I freeze it in ice cube trays. This way I can use it as I go and I can save time in the kitchen. I add the garlic and cheese right when I'm about to use it. The arugula leaves should be completely dry before making the pesto otherwise the sauce can turn out runny. What are you waiting for? Get cooking! The world of pesto is here to surprise you, and this arugula version will wow you with its delicious flavor.

[social][/social]Another big feature in the backpack is the extra padded cushions on the back side. A lot of times when carrying an overload amount of objects on your back one can literally feel the uncomfortable sensation of the items pressing sharply against their back. Luckily for you The Origin Bag eliminates this concern providing a comfortable voyage.
Analyzing the other compartments of the technical bag it is clear what the intent is designed for. Each segment which is outlined with a brilliant color scheme is designed to handle a primary purpose. For instance Cell phone/MP3 pockets (located on the shoulder straps) stirs away from the time consuming trend of reaching into your pocket during a busy day to answer that important call or listening to your favorite jams.
[bjjad][/bjjad]Speaking of swift action the bag also is equipped with compartments for the I-Pad and camera. A lot of times while on the road people have such a hard time getting to their electronics for usage. Realizing the circumstance the Technical backpack deflects this matter with the pockets located on the outside of the bag which provided easy access while waiting at a terminal for your flight or pulling out your camera to record your matches.
The "Origin Mundial Technical Backpack" also tackles another issue BJJ practitioners face on a daily basis. Ever get tired of coming out of practice with a sticky and wet belt? I know I have. Striking as unique and downright cleaver Technical Backpack's belt pocket is made for keeping your belt dry after it is wet from practice which is built with a vented air system to speed up the drying process.
Still at the early stage with the great presentation showcased in the "Mundial Technical Backpack" Origin BJJ has without question a company ahead of its time. This backpack is perfect for relating to the needs and wants of everyday BJJ practitioners which is a hard strategy for anyone (company) to execute with accurate precision. Pushing to continue the great success with the future release of the "Mundial Light" for everyday use it only leaves us eager to see what Origin BJJ has to offer.

{Sugar Bee} Back to School Cookies
This year my youngest is starting Kindergarten which leaves me without any kids at home during they day (if I so choose to stay home from work)....hmmmm....this could be fun! To celebrate this momentous occasion of both of my babies in school and my daughter starting kindergarten, I had to make some back-to-school themed sugar cookies for my kids teachers. After all, they are going to be with them for many hours of the day, and though I love my kids, I know how huge a task that is and I am so grateful that my kids will be in classes with teachers who are amazing and will not only educate them, but also care for them in my absence. Teachers are simply amazing!
So here is to a happy start of the school year for both the teachers and their students!

edge of prairie the crow perched on a wagon wheel —Cindy Tebo
I live at a crossroads between prairies and glades--a place called Catawissa in Missouri. Many people use wagon wheels as decorations around their porch, near trees and at the ends of their driveway. There happened to be a crow perched on one of these decorations not far from a field of prairie grass.
