The Bad Tourist: 2011
The new Ericksons
Hey guys! I've been so busy lately, haven't had much time to blog but it's because I've been doing so many awesome things ;)
Last weekend I had the special honor of being a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding back in Omaha. I had such a great time seeing old friends and making new ones.
I've known Kait since Freshman year of high school and back in the day we would have sleepovers and recite Zoolander all day long. Let's just say that she's grown up a lot more than me. I still quote Zoolander regularly and Kait is in her first year of teaching third grade.
From the moment I met Kait, she always knew what she wanted. It was like she could describe Jake years before she met him. The way he looked, the kind of car he drove, his hobbies and his demeanor. When I finally got to meet Jake it was like meeting someone I already knew. He was exactly as she had imagined him and she finally found him. I am so happy for the two of them, they deserve all the happiness in the world.
I'd like to share a few pictures with you from their beautiful wedding:
The night before the big day we had a sleepover!!! No Zoolander but it was still good!
Talking to her groom the night before the wedding. So sweet. The lovely Amanda, always helping me with my photos! Check out her awesome blog here.
Putting on the dress. It all came together so beautifully.
Stacie, Maid of Honor. I love your mind. I love the way it works. blog.
Not to end on a tacky note but I had to throw this one in here--- on the way out of Nebraska we saw this. Pool. HBO. Beer. 'Nuff said

SCORPIO'S GARAGE: MINI Coupe and Roadster Reach End of the Line
A number of years ago, MINI began diversifying its portfolio with the larger Clubman, Countryman, Paceman, as well as the sporty Coupe and Roadster. Now it appears that aggressive expansion will be curtailed, as the latter duo cease to exist in the immediate future. “The Coupe and the Roadster will actually go out of production next year,” confirms Patrick McKenna, MINI USA’s product planning manager, said to AutoGuide at the recent LA Auto Show. “They’ve run their life cycle.”

cc.complexity theory - Lower bound on alternations needed in $BQP$ versus $PH$ result? - Theoretical Computer Science Stack Exchange
What is the fastest $f(n)$ the relatively new result of oracle separation of $\mathsf{BQP}$ from $\mathsf{PH}$ provides such that ${\#\mathsf{SAT}}\not\subseteq\mathsf{FP}^{\mathsf{PH}[O(f(n))]}$ holds where $n$ is number of inputs to $\mathsf{SAT}$ formula (note $\mathsf{BQP}\subseteq\mathsf{PP}$) (here $\mathsf{FP}^{\mathsf{PH}[O(f(n))]}$ refers to $\mathsf{FP}$ with oracle access to ${\mathsf{PH}[O(f(n))]}$)? Is $f(n)=O\Big(\frac{n}{\log n}\Big)$ (comments in https://blog.computationalcomplexity.org/2018/06/bqp-not-in-polynomial-time-hierarchy-in.html seems to indicate such a bound on $f(n)$ however was not sure)?
What would be the consequence if indeed $\mathsf{PP}$ and/or $\#\mathsf{SAT}$ are/is in $\mathsf{PH}[O(\log n)]$ and $\mathsf{FP}^{\mathsf{PH[O(\log n)]}}$ respectively? Would it nullify the $\mathsf{BQP}$ versus $\mathsf{PH}$ result of Raz and Tal (it could still be $\mathsf{BQP}\not\subseteq\mathsf{PH}$ is true but the evidence achieved will be falsified) and the result Robin Kothari is quoting? Would it have other consequences?
edited May 19 at 5:14
$\begingroup$ The oracle notation is conflicting with the PH notation here. Typically $A^{B[f(n)]}$ means A with a B oracle, making at most f(n) queries. But I think you still want it to be number of alternation of quantifiers (right?). Not sure of a better notation, but it'd help to clarify it in the text. $\endgroup$ – Joshua Grochow May 19 at 2:17
$\begingroup$ @JoshuaGrochow Yes number of quantifiers. Perhaps $[[]]$ or leave it that way since if we are calling $\mathsf{PH}$ generically is meaningless and if we call $f(n)$ queries we may say $\mathsf{FP}^{\mathsf{PH}[O(\log n)][f(n)]}$? $\endgroup$ – T.... May 19 at 2:24
If you just want oracle separations with $\#P$, you don't need to use the new result of Raz and Tal. You can use the classic Parity/Majority not in $AC^0$ results from the 1980s.
For example, the strongest quantitative version of Parity not in $AC^0$ says that the $n$-bit Parity function cannot be computed by a quasi-polynomial size $AC^0$ circuit of depth $o(\log n/ \log\log n)$. So scaling this up, we get an oracle separation between $\oplus P$, which is in $\# P$, and $PH$ with $o(n/\log n)$ quantifiers.
$\begingroup$ Would you know 2. as well? $\endgroup$ – T.... May 18 at 7:06

DI-SAS-TER - Review of Rosa Mexicano - Chevy Chase, Washington DC, DC - TripAdvisor
DI-SAS-TER - Rosa Mexicano - Chevy Chase
“DI-SAS-TER”
Review of Rosa Mexicano - Chevy Chase - CLOSED
Transit: Red Line - Friendship Heights.
Description: Chevy Chase is our third Washington, DC area location. Launched in February 2012, this 150-seat restaurant includes spacious indoor, outdoor, and private dining seating. Blending traditional and modern elements of Mexican craft and architecture, the warm and vibrant decor features Rosa Mexicano’s signature hues of pinks and purples. Multi-dimensional art work complements rich fabrics and textures, as well as a floor-to-ceiling display of tequila bottles. Directly over the bar and extending into the dining lounge area, the ceiling glows with pink haze lighting that is set against an electric blue tiled cascading water wall, inspired by those at sister Rosa Mexicano locations. The enclosed patio area features a wall of vertical colored glass bands, creating a focal point from the street and exhibiting arrival for the Rosa Mexicano experience that awaits.The restaurant’s location is just steps away from Chevy Chase Pavilion and stores such as Neiman Marcus, Tiffany, Louis Vuitton, Barneys, Gucci and more, among a variety of restaurants and hotels.
DI-SAS-TER
we had a reservation for a group of 8 for lunch. About 1/2h after getting there we got the guacamole to share we asked for; then a while later we called our waiter to take the order. After 1h30 in the restaurant we started getting nervous because we had work calling us back to the office. The waiter dismissed our concerns saying he could check but the food would come out before he gets to the kitchen. After 1h45 at the table they brought the food: I had a garden salad instead of the elaborated salad I ordered; another order was missing, and everybody else's was barely warm and looked barely ok. After 2h I got my salad (mango & tuna) and it was tasteless... by that time, like the other table behind us, we complained to the lady who might have been the manager. We asked to get the deserts to go and called them a few times to get our check. ok, they didn't charge for the 2 dish that were missing when they finally served, but it was still quite expensive. We had been there a few weks ago, and although the exerience had been better, the service was a bit slow. We work close by and take out clients often for meals; I will NEVER bring any customer to this restaurant, at least not until they get their act somewhat together. I must say my colleagues had a better experience at the Rosa Mexicano down town, and alsso on the positive sidee their guacamole is quite good. In short, service was the worst I ever experienced, and food was not worth the money.
Thank Philippe_DC
New branch of well-run Mexican restaurant chain
Newest DC restaurant of New York's Rosa Mexicano (that's their Spanish!) chain (3rd in DC area). Handsome place 2 blocks from the Chevy Chase-DC border, on Wisconsin Ave. Diners can expect the usual very good, table-side guacamole, along with good drinks and exceptional flautas. The parent outfit knows what it is doing with the food, atmosphere, and bar services. This location has a 3-sided front room pushed onto the sidewalk that might be very pleasant in summer (though sunny!). The bar & dining rooms inside were clean, cleverly decorated, and easy to use. Handsome all around -- with very good food. Not inexpensive. Usually, there is easy parking around neighborhood (you might have to pay). Mazza Gallery and many shops a block away for shopping.
Thank Phillylad

lutz family blog: 'round here this week
Look at these two snugglebugs on the couch...awww.
Today at Storytime the boys made "binoculars." (Walker's are MIA, I thought about putting the house on lockdown until they were located, but it was almost bathtime...)
Wilson told me later "I never knew you could make binoculars out of 'these'". Dirty Dog...and a newly expanded Little People Land in the background
(Don't worry those of you that know about Muskoka's recent bout of feces-eating. These pics are a result of a day of rain, and a small stream advisory in our backyard. The powder I put on her food really did make her poop taste like crap, I guess, because she is no longer snacking on it. Sorry, Dad, I know you hate the "C" word.)
When I edit my pictures in Picasa, there is a feature called "I'm Feeling Lucky" that fixes all the color at once, and seriously, I don't believe in luck, but when I am editing pics of my wonderful family, I cannot help but get a dorky grin whenever I click on "I'm Feeling Lucky" --because seriously, as I look at these little faces I just cannot help but think I really am "feeling lucky"
Do you think if I write to Picasa they would consider changing that feature to "I'm Feeling Blessed"???
Posted by amanda at 19:56
Yaya 10 April, 2008 07:53
Since I have written to them about a few things, go ahead and see what they might do with it...they may just add a button "I'm feeling Blessed" after all most the people who are working on their pics would have to feel that way...I know I do!
Yaya 10 April, 2008 07:54
Hopefully poor Muskoka didn't have to experience the lightning again....last time that happened I think she held it all in for a week!

Wilson, can you see me through your binoculars?? Love Meme
Destini 11 April, 2008 04:13
Very cute pictures! It is amazing how a simple set of moon floss tubes can become binoculars. A little transformation and some wax paper and they will have a kazoo!
TP tubes...the gift that keeps on giving! They are truly underrated! :)
Hope you are doing well! Have a blessed day!
Jenn 11 April, 2008 13:23
I love your comments. You should write a book. Or maybe be a comedian. Not enough of those are Christian! I just keep chuckling about you putting powder (???) in her food so she won't eat her poo. Poor dog. You guys always have such great adventures! Can't wait for our play date!

Shortly, a day or two tops, after you died I thumbed through the yellow pages and found a grief counselor. The fact that I just randomly picked her name is astounding when I think of how much she helped me and what I owe her, though she’d never ask for anything.
When I first sat down with her I think I was probably still in shock, though by then I was no longer under the impression that what had happened was some sort of mistake. The first day I couldn’t fathom that you weren’t in this world anymore. Of all the billions walking around, you had to be one of them: you just weren’t in Ohio.
By then, my mind had switched to the bigger task of figuring out if you still loved me. Though J., my counselor, understood my uncontrollable and habitual need to figure this out, she knew the search itself was fruitless, that I would end up exhausting myself. She was kind enough to humor me for just a little while, and then she made me get down to doing the serious work of repair, of creating a whole person from the pieces that were left.
I won’t lie; I didn’t think that task was possible. But, as she did for me, I humored J. and myself and eventually I began to see that though different, I could still recognize bits of myself when I looked in the mirror. And the parts I didn’t recognize, I looked for their place, for the similar edges that would let me slide the unknown straight against the familiar.
Some of what helped was having a better understanding of what you may have experienced. From the early part of losing you I had this idea of you being able to be wherever you wanted to go. Sitting with your family as they had dinner; visiting places you had wanted to go while alive; and laughing with your friends. From where I sat, having that kind of freedom was a gift.
Then J. said to me: “Imagine sitting with your family, hearing them laugh and tell jokes and say ‘I love you’ and not being able to participate yourself.” The isolation of your position had never occurred to me, perhaps because I was feeling so isolated myself. A stranger to even myself. And that is where we once again gained common ground, in the effort each of us was having to make to adjust to a completely new normal.
I don’t know where you are or how you experienced death. I can make a guess; I can have my theories. But those might be to tame my own demons. I might need an idea of where you are to take the edge off you not existing here, and I know thinking of you as gone just won’t do. So I work to find the delicate balance of letting the past inform the present, of finding you in this place without binding myself to memory alone.

Where do you usually pick up your knives? I've been looking around sportsman's guide. They have a great Knife page. I was interested to know if you order online or if you have a dealer you go through or a local store you support or what?
Sword Store December 3, 2011 at 1:45 AM
The survival knife is the one tool that you should never forget to bring on any trek into the wilderness. With a myriad of options available in survival knives including different brands, styles, materials and price ranges, finding the right survival knife for your needs could be vital to your survival. Thanks a lot.....
Regarding fixed blade knives, I stick with carbon steel blades with a full tang. The carbon steel can be sharpened easily and require a little oiling to avoid rust. The full tang adds overall strength to the blade.
That said, I always recommend the traditional Kabar fighting knife carried by U.S. forces. It comes in two sizes and has straight or serrated edges.
They are available for less that $100 a copy and are as sturdy and durable as any 'high-dollar' blade out there. That spells more bang for the buck to me!

I love opinels I have always had them and I love the fact that the design has hardly changed in over 100 years. truely timeless. My wife bought me this Opinel Knife as a gift and I always carry it when going for picnics etc. It just makes bread and cheese taste so much better.

If not the most important, then one of the most important items of your outdoors gear should always be a survival knife! It is a standard item on my list for outdoors adventures. But, not all knives are perfect for everybody. There are a few features you have to consider before buying the knife. Here is a great article that actually helped me in finding the ideal survival knife for me. It also includes the reviews of some of the best models available on the market. You can check it out here: http://hikingmastery.com/top-pick/best-survival-knife.html

Survival Knives are intended for survival situations. Survival knives are carried by Military Troops, Hunters, Backpackers and Campers.

Catholic Mom Moments Blog: Did you have a great weekend?
I did! Here are a few "stream of consciousness" thoughts about the past few days to let you know how truly crazy/wonderful life is in our home these days:
My Christmas tree is up, but only has about one quarter of the ornaments hanging. I purchased, wrapped and gave away a few gifts this weekend, most to our "Project Santa" program at church - I still need to shop for family gifts, which may arrive a bit late this year. We took Christmas photos of the boys to use for our card, but I can't decide which one to pick... they are all good of one kid or the other, but none of them are good of both boys. We went to the Right to Life banquet Friday night and I beamed with pride watching my Eric work as a waiter and spotter for the live auction. It was one of those "I'm so proud" moments when you truly feel like your kid is turning out ok!! Speaking of proud, Adam won his first fencing medal this weekend, placing 8th at a tournament in the Bay Area. Given that this is only his second tournament, we're so happy for him - his hard work at training is paying off. Speaking of training, we had the Football banquet yesterday and Eric was awarded "Lineman of the Year" for his JV team...what a stud. And guess what, football practice started again this morning after a three week break with weightlifting at 6:45 AM! Yikes! The weekend passed by in a total blur, but it was a fun blur! The best part: three masses in a twenty four hour period (the Feast Day, Saturday vigil with Adam and Sunday mass with Eric) - no wonder I'm in a good mood!
Posted by Lisa Hendey at 11:59 AM
Wow, you must be so proud of Adam and Eric! What great accomplishments! What a whirlwind of a week end!
Happy Asdvent!

The Roosevelt Hotel | Groupon
237264
The Roosevelt Hotel - Seattle, WA
1531 7th Ave
+12066211200
Hotel at a Glance: The Roosevelt Hotel
The antique neon sign at the top of The Roosevelt Hotel has been a part of the Seattle skyline since the red-brick high-rise hotel was constructed in 1929, where it was the second tallest building in Seattle. A sense of Gilded Age grandeur prevails in the lobby, where you’ll find elegant furnishings that include a fireplace and Victorian armchairs. In the deluxe double and deluxe queen rooms, modern amenities mingle with antique-style accents—in some units, you might see a leaf-patterned bench at the foot of the bed. Unwind in your room and slip into a bathrobe and slippers and switch on the HDTV. Complimentary tea and coffee are served in lobby daily on the weekdays from 5 a.m. - 9 a.m., and from 5 a.m. - 10 a.m. on weekends.
Downtown Seattle: Art, Architecture, and Famous Coffee in Coastal Urban Center
Street performances, flowers, and fresh-caught fish find a common home at Seattle’s Pike Place Market. Founded in 1907, this market is where both sightseers and locals shop for fresh seafood, meat, and produce. Drop into the Fish Market to watch the staff tossing salmon, halibut, cod—a famous tradition. There are plenty of nonperishable goods as well, including jewelry and other crafts. And you might want to take a picture in front of the market’s iconic sign, which now rivals Space Needle as the city’s most-recognizable symbol.
The original Starbucks coffeehouse has operated out of Pike Place since the 1970s. You can stop here for a pick-me-up before taking the half-mile walk to Seattle Central Library. Whether you love books or architecture or both, this futuristic-looking library is worth a visit. The 11-story glass-and-steel structure consists almost entirely of diamond-shaped windows arranged to look like a geometric net. The otherworldly interior is a playground for book lovers. Be sure to check out the library’s “living room” in the morning, when sunlight creates a kaleidoscopic shadow on the floor.
Like the library, the nearby Seattle Art Museum is full of spectacles, starting with its collection of “exploding” white Ford Tauruses suspended from the lobby ceiling. Exhibits range from Renaissance-era European art to Korean and Japanese panels.
Other nearby attractions include the Pike Place market, and the property is only ten minutes away from Seattle’s Waterfront and Washington State Ferry. Guests are centered in the heart of downtown, near theaters and Pacific Place Shopping Center, and are only one block away from the Washington State Convention Center.

It's a small world after all...: System, Being and Consciousness
System, Being and Consciousness
One of the current hot topics among researchers of artificial intelligence (AI) is about consciousness. Consciousness has been an object of interest for philosophers from several centuries. It is only in recent times that scientific curiosity into consciousness is gathering momentum.
The reason for this new found interest is rapid advances in "autonomous" machines, which can be programmed to act rationally and take decisions "on their own". Rationality is fundamentally driven by two elements: self-interest and utility maximization. All living beings are rational. But there are several nuances as well.
Utility maximization is an optimization problem at its core, and depends on how much information the autonomous agent has about the situation, how much it can afford to compute, and so on.
And autonomy is not all about rationality. Humans and other animals which are known to behave autonomously, exhibit several other characteristics in addition to being driven (just) by self-interest. At the very least, several animals acknowledge the presence of others and their self-interests in their own processes of utility maximization.
Including others' interests into one's own calculations opens up a vast area of ethics and morality. Such questions are now becoming mainstream in AI research, as we make advances in autonomous behaviour.
A commonly cited moral dilemma in AI is a variant of the trolley problem. Suppose you are sitting in an autonomous, self-driving car which is taking you to work. The car suddenly encounters a pregnant lady crossing the street right in front of a bridge. The car has two choices: hit the lady (which would be fatal) and save the occupant of the car, or swerve to avoid the lady, but fall into the ditch, almost definitely killing the occupant. What choice should it (be programmed to) favour?
Similarly there was this incident in the US recently when an autonomous robot was sent to kill a gunman who was shooting down cops. While there was justification about not risking the lives of officers in this operation, there were also other camps which noted that a human entering the house would have carried some hope to have convinced the gunman to surrender, while the robot was only optimizing to kill.
The human could have made a "conscious connection" with the assailant and may potentially have computed an optimal solution at a completely different epistemological level, that was not even accessible to the robot.
The debate about consciousness had begun along with initial advances in AI back in the 1970s. In response to the debates then, Roger Penrose had written this book called The Emperor's New Mind where he asserted that consciousness was beyond the capabilities of what a computer can do -- even theoretically.
AI research hit a plateau around that time, due to the fact that much of its logic and reasoning were modeled as closed-world operations (ignorance as falsity), which limited their expressive abilities. However, by the 1990s, AI came back with a new lease of life with advances in the theory of agency -- or autonomous agents working in an open-world environment.
The expressiveness of intelligent agents was so much richer than the previous form of AI, that many researchers refuse to believe Penrose's claim and contend that computation can indeed create behaviours that may be termed consciousness. This claim is also called the "strong AI" claim.
Another skeptical attack against computational consciousness and strong AI is John Searle's Chinese Room Argument. Imagine a person sitting in a room which has a single window through which others ask questions in Chinese. The person in the room cannot speak or read Chinese. But the person has access to a vast library and a set of rules that define how to manipulate any given sequence of symbols written in Chinese. The person can hence provide answers to all questions that are asked. Would we call this person "conscious" in terms of being able to converse in Chinese?
Searle's argument basically says that a computer, no matter how "intelligently" it may appear to behave, is only manipulating symbols according to rules. It is not really "aware" of the meaning of what it is doing.
Despite the above skepticism, computational consciousness is a hot area of research. Penrose for example, received a number of criticisms for his first book -- especially criticisms that alleged that he has left the path of science and was speaking like the "Eastern mystics". In response to such criticisms, Penrose came back with another book called Shadows of the mind, where he distanced himself from the "Eastern mystics" and basically asserted that mind is a result of quantum mechanical effects, whose mathematical expressiveness is richer than the set of computable numbers (basically, everything that computers can do)
In this post, I'd like to shift focus on the much maligned "Eastern mystics" and their view of consciousness and why speaking to Eastern mystics does not automatically make one unscientific.
I've argued in earlier posts that Eastern hermeneutics are based on the "system" as a fundamental building block of the universe -- in contrast to the "particle" that forms the basis of Western thought.
Conventionally (in Western thought) a "system" is seen as a composite entity, comprising of several parts and interactions between them. Hence, the assertion that a "system" is a foundational element seems to make no sense, at first glance. It seems to simply beg the question -- if everything is made of systems, what are systems themselves made of?
This is where it is important to understand Eastern hermeneutics.
The building block of the universe in Eastern thought is obviously not called a "system" -- but is called a "being" (in Sanskrit, Asthita -- or that which has dynamics). A "being" is something that can exist in different states. The dynamics of a being is an integral, autonomous, inseparable characteristic of being..
Hence, a "system" is not built from particles and interactions, but by beings autonomously coming together (driven by their dynamics) to form bigger beings.
The dynamics of a being, gives it certain characteristics, which enable it to combine with other beings to form bigger and richer beings -- or even annihilate and subdue one another. Viruses (which are basically protein molecules) for instance, have certain dynamics which make them combine with elements in another being's body to form either an infection or a routine metabolism of the larger being. Drugs for instance are beings (proteins) which can dock to viruses, thus subduing their dynamics. Different atoms in a chemical soup for instance, are beings that have different affinities and disaffinities towards one another, which makes them eventually coagulate into one or more complex compounds.
In the theory of beings, structure and dynamics are inseparable. They are encapsulated as a single abstraction, collectively forming the being.
In such a theory, "consciousness" is basically a graded function of the "awareness" possessed by the being. The more aware a being is, the more conscious it is. And of course, the limit to awareness is the universal consciousness or the universal self. The universe itself is a being -- the largest possible and most expressive being that can ever be.
Note that the theory of beings does not directly answer whether consciousness is computationally tractable. This is because computable numbers are not "beings" per se. They do not possess innate dynamics. But when computation is "embodied" in a machine, it is a "being" in the sense of possessing dynamics. However, such a being is not built from the algebra of being composition -- that is, bigger beings being formed by the autonomous composition of smaller beings.
When a larger being is composed by the autonomous composition of smaller beings, the autonomy displayed by the larger being is a function of the autonomy possessed by its constituent beings. As humans, our autonomous behaviour for instance, is a (very complex) function of the autonomy possessed by the billions of cells that we are made of.
This property is not true for a robot that is designed with a top-down teleological objective and is embodied with a software that encodes behaviours for rational choice.
In the "Eastern mystics" view, there are no "machines" in nature -- only "societies". Machines are top-down constructs, built by a creator for a teleological objective. In contrast, societies are bottom-up phenomena, where several autonomous beings come together to result in a complex and rich ensemble.
To come back to the original question of whether machines can be made truly conscious or whether consciousness is tractable -- maybe we should first start by defining a mathematics of beings and autonomous composition of beings. And build machines (which would be more like societies) based on such mathematics.
Maybe then, we might be able to build truly conscious machines someday..

Excellent read. Just a small doubt - how do we make a distinction between awareness and consciousness?

Thank you. From my understanding, awareness is a characteristic property of consciousness.

NBAF propaganda machine gets tobacco settlement funding | Butner Blogspot
NBAF propaganda machine gets tobacco settlement funding
Filed under: Activism, Blogging, Business, Butner, Civil Rights, Environmental, Government, Government Corruption, Green, Homeland Security, Local, Media, Nature, NBAF News, News, North Carolina, Opinion, Plum Island, Politics, Public Health, Raleigh, Science by butnerblogspot — 1 Comment
Well, well the consortium needs more cash for their NBAF PR campaign? I wondered why Capstrat hadn’t visited me recently. No worries however now they are working with a new firm called French West Vaughan. Wow, they blew through that 3 million DHS gave them awfully quick. What is more amazing however is they are paying themselves to write op-eds, “meet with news editors and reporters, taking out advertisements in local and area newspapers and having speakers available to talk to business and civic groups”.
The News & Observer reported on Tuesday that the Golden Leaf Foundation awarded $262,000 (and some change) to the consortium for a “impartial and factual education campaign”. Ain’t special interest grand, now we have a foundation funded by a settlement from a public health nightmare (smoking) funding a public health nightmare. What is wrong with these people?
If the consortium calls what they have been running in the local Butner-Creedmoor News educational, I am scared the see what they call “factual and impartial”. Besides, the consortium has not spent one red dime being impartial to the residents of Butner. If it wasn’t for GNAT, who hosted a forum in January of this year, the citizens of Butner would know very little if anything factual about the NBAF.
Go to nobio.org, sign their petition, donate money and help GNAT help us, STOP THE NBAF!!!!!!!! God knows the Golden Leaf Foundation ain’t giving them any money, GNAT members are the community.
Here’s the latest from the Herald Sun and the Daily Dispatch in Henderson.
Opponents of bio lab befuddled by grant
The [Henderson] Daily Dispatch /The Herald-Sun
BUTNER — A staunch opponent of the proposed National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility is befuddled by the Golden LEAF Foundation awarding more than $262,000 to the statewide pro-NBAF group seeking to get the germ-fighting laboratory located at Butner.
“I think, unfortunately, Golden LEAF has been a victim of the same snow job that the consortium has been practicing as it went to speak to elected officials at the outset,” Kathryn Spann argued Tuesday.
The consortium maintains the money will be used for an informational campaign, which will include a public relations firm.
Spann, an attorney, is on the steering committee of the Granville Non-Violent Action Team (GNAT), which argues the NBAF would pose environmental and health hazards.
And Spann is disputing state data about the NBAF’s economic impact.
The nonprofit Golden LEAF Foundation is based in Rocky Mount. It was created in 1999 to receive half the funds coming to North Carolina from the tobacco master settlement agreement that resulted from lawsuits against cigarette manufacturers over smoking-related diseases.
The foundation’s purpose is help make the transition from a tobacco-dependent economy through grants and investments that will positively affect the long-term advancement of the Tar Heel State.
Spann said she hopes she and fellow GNAT backers can persuade Golden LEAF to reconsider before dispersing the funds to the pro-NBAF group of private and public experts.
At the same time, Spann said she sees a disconnect between the foundation’s mission and areas of the state adversely impacted by the decline of tobacco farming.
“Why they would seek to bring another public health nightmare to North Carolina with those funds is certainly baffling,” she said.
And Spann, commenting on the consortium’s latest action, added that, “I’m somewhat baffled that it takes them that much money to do what we do with none.”
“Money does not equal merit in the message, which is perhaps why this hasn’t been exactly a slam dunk for them,” she said.
Golden Leaf Foundation President Valeria Lee said in an e-mail that the foundation’s board met via conference call and approved the funding.
Lee attached a copy of the board’s decision, which said $262,248 was approved for the N.C. Biotechnology Center “for the purpose of funding an impartial and factual community education program” relating to the NBAF.
The attachment said the grant is for seven months, but it did not list who made the motion for the grant, who seconded and which way individual board members voted.
Lee was asked in an e-mail if she was aware that the Granville County Commissioners had withdrawn support for the project, that the municipal board majorities in Stem and Creedmoor had declined to provide their support and that Butner’s municipal board is neutral.
The Raleigh City Council has unanimously refused to support having the lab in Granville County.
“Concerns about the project that are raised in your e-mail were discussed on the call,” Lee replied.
Ken Tindall, senior vice president for science and business development at the Biotechnology Center, said later in the day that the money would be used for more of what the consortium had already been doing.
That is, having consortium representatives meet with news editors and reporters, taking out advertisements in local and area newspapers and having speakers available to talk to business and civic groups.
“It’s not about trying to deal with the opposition,” Tindall contended. “It’s about trying to make sure that accurate information and educational information is out there.”
Tindall, when asked whether some may view the latest action as last-gasp and too late in the process, said, “Some may say that.”
Published reports said the majority of the money — more than $107,000 — will go to French West Vaughan, which is based in Raleigh and bills itself the Southeast’s largest independent public relations firm.
Also, according to those reports:
— Just over $70,000 will compensate for time and travel by staff of the non-profit N.C. Association for Biomedical Research.
— At least $48,000 will be spent for newspaper ads, at least $15,000 will be spent for designing the consortium’s Web site and at least $15,000 will be spent on informational postcards.
— At least $4,500 will be paid to a news clipping service, while at least $2,100 will compensate the N.C. Biotechnology Center staff for travel.

Big Data – Big Governance – Olga Larsen
Posted on May 15, 2017 May 18, 2017 by olgalarsen	Posted in Big Data, Data Governance, Governance, IT
In recent years there is an avalanche of data coming into many companies and there is more to come. Big Data is getting bigger. Each individual company might consume raw data from different sources, in different formats, can be streaming or delayed, etc.
In many companies, the “anarchy” works up to some point and then things start hosing.
A lot of companies now realize that there is a real need for proper data governance and outlined processes. But sometimes it is not that easy to sort out what exactly the governance should look like in order for it to work and how to do that.
There are a lot of ambiguous schematic charts, about Data Governance, but there is a little explanation what is the whole point of all this.
To answer in simple terms WHY do you need data governance:
Easily findable
High quality (Accurate, complete and consistent)
Archived when near-active
Properly discarded when obsolete
There should be no operational friction
The trick is that everything should be working like a well-oiled machine: the data should be well mapped, there should be no unplanned systems outage because of mismanaged data and the process should be smooth and well documented.
Now how to achieve it?
Well 🙂 that is another story:
To design the whole process can take a while. Here are some steps to make it happen:
Metrics for measuring DG success should be identified (number of issues opened, closed, in progress, number of data fields standardized, + there is much more)
Data should be classified starting with business glossary (people have to be on the same page)
Data cleaning processes for quality should be outlined and checked for problems (initial system conversion, data consolidation, manual data entry, batch feeds, real time interfaces, others)
Data Connections specified, Master Data Management outlined
How the data is created, used, updated and when disposed – specified (policies for data retention, access, etc.) BI and DW components accounted for, etc.
On the IT side: How and where the data is maintained, stored, archived, disposed of – specified (functional flow diagrams with concept / logical / physical architectures considering all IT and business aspects including policies, IT optimized methods, DB management, Security, etc.)
Who are the accountable parties
Who are data stewards
Communication protocol specified (meetings, emails, etc.)
Create a company Data Governance Workbook. Start small, with something simple (one project or initiative), keep the whole company in perspective. Develop a conceptual design, test it, modify if needed, implement it, monitor the success. Now you have a developed framework, work off the framework with another project.
Can be quite a long process but on the long run is definitely worth the money spent.

Apple holds preliminary talks with MGM, Journal reports | The Spy Command
Apple holds preliminary talks with MGM, Journal reports
Apple Inc. has held preliminary talks about acquiring Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, the home studio of the James Bond film series, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Most of the story is behind a paywall. However, CET has a summary that can be viewed by CLICKING HERE.
Apple wants is considering “ways to broaden the appeal” of its Apple TV app and $4.99 a month Apple TV + streaming service, the Journal said. In addition to MGM, Apple also had preliminary meetings with the Pac 12 college athletic conference concerning possible programming, the Journal said.
In streaming, Apple is up against various competitors, including Netflix, Disney + and HBO Max. Financial analysts have speculated that Apple needs more programming compared to those competitors.
MGM controls the Bond film franchise, along with Danjaq, parent company of Eon Productions. The company also has a large film library, much of it from the old United Artists, which MGM acquired in 1981. MGM is owned by a group of hedge funds.
MGM has been rebuilding since a bankruptcy in 2010. It has gotten back into film distribution with the formation of the United Artists Releasing joint venture with Annapurna Pictures. MGM also is trying to build other “franchises” such as Creed and the animated Addams Family.
In 2017, The Hollywood Reporter said that Apple and Amazon were looking to get involved with the Bond franchise. At the time, distribution for Bond 25 (now titled No Time to Die) was unsettled. What eventually emerged was United Artists Releasing handling U.S. distribution for No Time to Die, with Universal performing distribution internationally.
The big development since then is the emergence of the streaming competition as studios move to counter Netflix. Walt Disney Co. has been aggressively marketing Disney +, including original programs from its Star Wars and Marvel franchises.

Robinson22Hickory, North CarolinaLevel Contributor4 reviews“Very friendly staff!”Reviewed 1 week ago My sister and I stayed here after leaving The Comfort Inn down the road due to poor customer service. We were excited to sleep after a long day of traveling and the check in process was fast, efficient and the desk clerk was very nice. I feel the rate was a bit high for more of a budget type hotel...More ReportHelpful?Thank Robinson22 LHuffmanCottage Grove, MinnesotaLevel Contributor9 reviews6 hotel reviews3 helpful votes “Nothing too fancy, but great owner”Reviewed 3 weeks ago via mobileThis hotel is pretty basic, but is clean and comfortable. The owner was great in working with our schedule and went out of his way to accommodate us. The only negative is the train and traffic noise if you are a light sleeper. A great deal for the money, will definately stay here again if in the area. ReportHelpful?Thank LHuffman Tim JLevel Contributor3 reviews“Great bed for the night”Reviewed 4 weeks ago Newly renovated, well managed and very clean. I really loved the quite room heater and air conditioner. Big bed very clean, fridge and micro wave. Just every thing I needed for a good nights rest and clean shower after nights under the great Montana Big Sky! I had found one place cheaper, but that place should have been updated decades...More ReportHelpful?Thank Tim J Alboise1Level Contributor82 reviews29 hotel reviews62 helpful votes “A nice surprise!!”Reviewed 1 September 2016 via mobileStayed here once before and had a pleasant stay but was curious to see how it would be....Had several rooms and stayed for several days so we had an assortment of room types.

"Any parent would do anything they could for their child. And we're just doing what we feel is the best thing for Madeleine. Some people say the publicity will be harmful, that she'll be hidden away because of it. But what can you do - sit and do nothing?"Kate McCann, to 'The People', 05.08.2007
keyser soseThursday, February 12, 2009 10:15:00 amthe difference being Miss Mccann is your not and never will be "Any Parent", your a disgrace.ReplyDeleteRosieThursday, February 12, 2009 12:00:00 pmYes, madame Kate, anything BUT having a family holiday with your kids, not dumping them in the créche mornings and afternoons, and most of all, making a self-sacrifice and taking the children with you for the evening meals, or staying in!And listen to their complaints and distress on being left alone at night!ReplyDeleteZodiacThursday, February 12, 2009 2:27:00 pm"what can you do - sit and do nothing?"Well from what I have read from the case file on the net that is exactly what you did do! And still appear to be doing! You did not answer the 48 questions the PJ asked, you did not return to Portugal to take part in a reconstruction and it appears that only 13.3% of monies amassed have been spent on the alleged searches for you missing child. Hardly action, imo, of a mother distraught and looking for her missing child she claims was taken to order by an organised gang of paedophiles! Especially when she and her husband claim that they believe the child can be found alive, well and in good health. Even the uncle of the child if my memory serves me well said he believed she could be recovered with not too much damage done!ReplyDeleteAdd commentLoad more...
