en | N/A | N/A | The start of a new school year is always busy. Setting up a classroom, writing lesson plans, getting used to a new schedule, learning new names, establishing routines with new students; it all takes time. When I first heard about ExitTicket in September, I didn’t think I had the time to learn how to use a new tool. Turns out, ExitTicket is really easy to set up and use!
In just a few minutes, I was able to create classes and compose a few tickets for each class. The next day, I had my students sign up using a class code and then complete a Lauch ticket before I taught that day’s lesson. Before the end of the period, I assigned an Exit ticket to check for understanding. Using the Teacher View I was able to watch (in real time) how my students were doing. I could easily identify which students were struggling and also which questions seemed to stump my students. Earlier this week, I assigned a Practice ticket before a quiz. Then, I looked at the Intervention Hot List to see which students might need extra support during the quiz.
ExitTicket does it all! Pre-assessment, check for understanding during and at the end of class, compare class and student performance week to week, identify your class superstars and those in need of help. I am so glad I took the time to learn about ExitTicket, it is proving to be an invaluable tool!
It's been quite a while since my last blog post - a whole summer, in fact. I'm a typical teacher...I check my school bag and computer at the door on June 22nd and don't crack it open again until late August (or if the weather is REALLY nice, early September!).
Just because I haven't blogged doesn't mean I haven't been learning about new technology. I spent two amazing weeks in Göttingen, Germany with 15 other German teachers from 14 different countries. During this time, I was collecting some web resources for German teachers and also learning about new technology used around the globe. I even met a teacher from Brazil who is interested in setting up a Skype relationship with some of our classes! We will be able to learn a little bit about Brazil which communicating in German! I'm very excited to get that started!
It's also time for me to start thinking about what tools and resources I can show other teachers in my district. I've already scheduled myself for 9 hours of teaching and 2 hours of learning in the first 2 months of school.
Here's to the start of another new, exciting, and technology filled school year!

I have done two Prezi assignments with my students and I have to say, I wasn't 100% sold on using Prezi instead of Powerpoint or Google Presentation. Sure, it's fun to be able to zoom in and out, spin around and jump all over the page, but sometimes all of those bells and whistles can take away from the presentation...especially if 7th graders are creating the presentation!
The main problem I had with Prezi were the preset templates. The options seemed very limited and didn't fit with the theme of my projects. The students would normally adjust the templates to work with their project or create their own template from scratch. I have never been that fond of how those self created projects looked. They always seemed to be missing that certain something.
I do have to say, I have to give credit where credit is due...I did have one student that always created a really interesting Prezi by hiding the texts and pictures in a word.
I just signed into my Prezi account to create one for my FDU summer class and I am really impressed with the options for pre-created templates. I think I may be warming up to this Prezi thing...
Stay tuned for my Prezi about Screencasting and Blogs...

She says she's not a photographer...
...but rather that she just likes to take pictures. I really struggle to believe that she is not a photographer. Look at the picture below - it is one that she took of herself, on her own camera, by herself!!
She set up the shot, figured out where to place the camera and where she needed to be in the picture, set the timer, and then posed for this magnificent picture.
There are so many things that a right about this picture. First, the black and white coloring of this shot makes it so mysterious. Is she happy, sad, lonesome, or pensive? Would you know that this girl has just received her confirmation? Second, look at the rule of thirds happening. Not only horizontally, but vertically, too!! Third, she breaks up the lines of the grass, side walk, street, and tree branches with a parasol! Stunning! Forth, even though she is not walking fast, she still managed to capture the action coming into the frame. It's as if the photographer just happened to stumble upon a young girl out for a walk. I don't think you would ever guess that the subject of this picture was also the photographer.
Oh, and did I mention this "lover of taking pictures" (photographer, if you ask me) is only 13 years old!
Thank you, young photographer, for sharing your beautiful pictures with me!

Steven from SmartTech software support is my favorite person!! As soon as I learned how to make fun and interactive activities using the Smartboard software, I was hooked! But, as you know from my previous post, my Epson Interactive Whiteboard was not playing nice with my Smartboard software. I called software support to see what could be done and Steven gave me 2 great options.
1. I can use the web version of the Smartboard software by going here.
2. I can download version 2.0 of the Notebook Interactive Viewer and run that program to open my already created Notebook files.
Awesome!! I can create activities using the full version of the software, and then when I'm ready to present them the class, I can open the Interactive Viewer and view my presentation sans watermark!
I can't wait to surprise my students with the missing water mark when I use Smartnote software to present a fun and engaging 3 day unit on farm animals!!

I have 2 more credits to complete before I can apply for a certificate from FDU to be an Instructional Technology Specialist and I'm really excited to do both of these credits virtually! I hope to learn a few things, no only about Wikis, Blogs, Podcasts, Google Apps, and Cloud Computing, but also about teaching and learning virtually. Flipping the classroom is still something that interests me greatly and something I'd like to spend more time learning about.
I'm ready for this new adventure as a virtual student!

My Not So Smart Interactive White Board
I had such high hopes - I thought with my FDU issued SmartBoard license, I could make my interactive white board smart. Not so much.
I created attendance sheets for my periods 1-3 classes and the kids are having SO MUCH FUN moving their suns or ice cream cones or popping their balloons. The problem is, I have this HUGE error message in the middle of the screen:
I'm trying to find a solution to this problem! I have designed a really cool 3 day interactive lesson to do with my 8th graders before we head to Hershey on the 13th...so that gives me 8 school days to figure this out...the race is on! |

en | N/A | N/A | Fairy Tail RP » West Fiore » ● OAK » Who am I and who are You? / Nastasya
Who am I and who are You? / Nastasya
There were moments that Alice had to go outside and become familiar with the city of Oak. Especially if there was something going on in your mind and you might needed to be able to run away as soon as possible or anything like that. It was not a great day, it was raining and thus Alice was holding on to an umbrella to make sure she wouldn't get more soaked to the bone than she already was, thank god she was wearing closed boots instead of open heels or even worse peeptoes.
With a sigh she continued to walk and get to know the city. She had started with the guild, walked into the centre of the town and stared at the Church for a moment, maybe she could hide in there. Maybe she shouldn't be such a coward and just write a letter to Selena, to ask where she was and run or simply run to Era. Was she getting some sort of brain wash and stuck into Oak forever? Stuck inside Phantom Lord? She shivered and pulled her leather jacket a bit closer before she would continue to walk.
Her right hand was holding the umbrella while her left was holding on to her purse, she bumped into someone with her left shoulder and dropped her purse, same as the woman she bumped into, "Sorry," she said before she grabbed hers and continued to walk around the town again. Damn today was gloomy.
Heavenly Body Magic
She was so tired of a lot of things and well it wasn't working that it was day. Of course, it was also mainly because it was during the day and the weather wasn't really nice, it was raining. Not thick drops no the sort of rain that made you soak through the bone in a matter of seconds. She didn't have an umbrella and thus was cloaked up and hid her face with a hoodie and hunched her shoulders upright. Victoire was running around for cover but it wasn't really working well. A white fox with mud, she was more like a brown fox at this point. At least from the bottom.
She couldn't really see where she was going and felt someone bump into her shoulder. She dropped the purse she was holding and grabbed it quickly, the other woman (apparently that's who it was) said sorry and Nasty muttered something the same and hurried along to take cover. She found cover near a stall on the market that would sell her some good food, so she grabbed the pursed opened it and stared at an empty content.. "What?" a flash went through her mind, that chick.
Off she went to find her and that wasn't difficult, in the dark streets because of the rain with one chick that had red hair. She grabbed her right wrist and pulled her into an ally and pushed her against the wall with her hand for her mouth, "I don't like people that steal my belongings." She hissed.
Before Alice knew it her normal: getting to see the town was disturb by someone that pulled her right wrist, out of surprise she even dropped the umbrella and hobbled along after the person that pulled her along. Since she was covered from head to toes into black clothing including hood, she had no idea what was going to happen, but she let it pass, sure that she wouldn't just let herself be robbed.
That's when she was slammed into a wall and got a hand in front of her mouth. The woman opposite her said something about stealing, well for once Alice hadn't done any stealing at this moment so it was a bit weird that this woman accused her. That's when she saw the same purse in her right hand as Alice was holding into her left. She tried to speak but the hand was too close on her mouth to really speak and that's when there was only one option that she didn't like, she simply kicked in front of her and tried to hit the other woman her shin. If that did work and her hand would sweep away from her mouth, Alice would first take a few steps to whatever side was the smartest, she took the left and tried to catch her breath, she was sure the other woman wouldn't be very happy with this.
"Wait, wait. Let me explain." She pointed at the purse that she was holding and showed the own in her left hand, "We have the same, we bumped into each other. We can just switch." She held out the purse that she was holding on to. She didn't even have to switch.. hers was for show. All the money was hidden in her bra.
Nastasya her eyes were dark, she was hungry but she didn't feel like drinking in the rain, so that was a good thing for this red head. She was carrying an umbrella, but she was now soaked because the umbrella must be dropped when Nasty caught her and pulled her in the ally. She felt a pang in her shin, it didn't hurt as much as when she was alive but it surprised her and she let go and looked at Victoire, or well the now almost brown mud fox.. That's when the red head took a few steps away from her and explained what was happening or more what had happened. She even lifted the purse she was holding and Nasty could see it was indeed the same. Maybe for some small details it could be different but she simply stretched both her hands to take it. Right at that moment, too fast for her to notice both things at the same time. She heard Victoire make a high noise, that's where her eyes turned to, someone was behind them. She felt the purse leave her hand but not in the way she was expecting, so she quickly turned her eyes back on it, it didn't go to the red head, it went up and she tried to look at the roof, protecting her eyes from the rain but only saw a silhoutte, "Dammit." She turned to look how she could reach the roof and remembered to look back at Victoire and lift up the muddy fox in her arms, this time, she didn't care. She would find a cleaner, she looked at the red head, whose purse was gone too, "Let's work together and get them back."
Also Alice her purse was stolen and she couldn't really care less, it would be too much trouble to go after it and it was empty. But the girl opposite her, cloaked in complete black, showed her face as she held on to her brown fox, it was probably suppose to be white. The woman opposite her, although she couldn't be much older, asked her to work together and get their stuff back. It might be a good thing to do but again: why? "Yes, let's go." the words were out of her mouth before she knew.
Alice followed the woman, whom seemed to know the streets a lot better than she did and tried to find the person, the silhoutte that caught their belongings and from which one of them had hurt the fox. Alice wasn't sure why she didn't see the person as her eyes had been on the woman and the fox had been behind her. It was probably just too dark and the rain was obviously annoying too. Alice didn't even know the name of the woman. She simply followed and tried to get quick glances at the person on the roof. He or she jumped off and the woman in front of her took a dash into that street but the street was empty, "What's going on?" Alice said not entirely sure. The hood of the woman was dropped off and she looked at a pale person with long dark coloured hair.
Nastasya could smell something, she thought it was blood. She looked left and right, her hood had fallen off and she stared at the red head that came into the alley. "I think I know where the person is. My name is Lilja by the way. Lilja Oswald." She waited for the other girl to introduce herself too. She looked at Victoire and muttered to watch her, "Wait here." She climbed on the wall and pulled herself up on the roof and followed the scent of the blood, the person must have hurt himself or herself during the drop. She found the person, killed him and took the purses back in the rain. It was a nice way to feed when no one was looking and well it would have been nicer if it wasn't raining. You couldn't have everything.
She made her way back to the red head and handed the right purse to her. The empty one. Why actually do such difficulty for an empty one. It didn't matter now. "It was nice meeting you." and with that she and the white fox left.
The whole situation was weird and she didn't know what to say until Lilja got their purses back and introduced herself as well, "Oh, my name is Alice Baskerville." She was waiting patiently although that thing was empty, she looked at the white fox and wasn't entirely sure what to do but Lilja got back and left her soon after that, "Yes goodbye." she muttered before running away to try and find her umbrella and heading back to the guild. |

I'll never forget the first words I spoke. I looked out into the congregation from that baptistery, and I said, "You know, standing here this morning in waist deep water is the last place I wanted to be this morning."
But I then said, "But it may also be first place I need to be this morning!"

en | N/A | N/A | For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a pleaser. When things got shitty in my family, I was the peace maker. When things were good, I was easy-going. I was whatever anybody needed me to be at any given time. I followed directions, I tried to do well in school, and for the most part, I stayed the straight and narrow. I wanted to be liked. I wanted to conform. I wanted to make everyone happy. I would stop at nothing to make sure that happened. All at the expense of myself.
When you’re a pleaser, people reward you for that. They tell you you’re the nicest person they’ve ever met. They tell you you’re so giving and so thoughtful. And because pleasers just want to be liked, they begin to believe that they have to portray this part, and only this part, or else people might jump ship’ve pretended to be happy when I wasn’t. I’ve pretended my feelings weren’t hurt when they were shattered. I’ve put on a smile when all I wanted to do was scream. I’ve agreed with someone’s ridiculous opinion instead of challenging it. All because I knew I could handle my uncomfortable emotions and wanted to save somebody else from their’s.
It doesn’t mean that I’m not still super nice. It doesn’t mean that I’m not still incredibly thoughtful and giving. I am all of those things. I’m just not those things all the time like people want me to be. In fact, like most humans, I have a wide range of emotions. I even have a temper (gasp!), and it can come out pretty easily if I’m comfortable around you.
Say you’ve been looking forward to some down time all week. The moment has finally come when you’re going to do whatever you do during that down time. But the minute you get to that moment, your phone rings. It’s that person. The person who wears you out every time you talk to them. The person who takes and takes and rarely gives anything in return. You know they’ve been struggling lately, so you feel guilty for not answering. So what do you do? Well say you don’t answer right away. You let it ring. But then they call back, and this time they leave a voicemail. Okay, fine. You’ll just listen to the voicemail just to make sure everything is okay. They sound so sad. They just need to talk. They need you. So what do you do? Your down time has just flown out the window and any energy you had left goes right along with it.
People pleasers who are also moms have to stop doing this. We have to get off the train. Put our foot down. Stop trying to serve everybody else besides our little people who need us. Why?
1. It Sucks.
I mean, what else do I need to say about it? And you know that no one takes care of you the way you take care of other people, so you get the absolute short end of the stick. Every time.
Our well-being depends on us taking a break and taking care of ourselves.
2. It’s Draining.
Aren’t we tired enough? We’re exhaustedwe spread ourselves so thin to the point of resentment and exhaustion, it’s for one reason and one reason only: because we think we should. It’s rarely (if ever) because we want to.
As moms we already do too much. We must stop doing too much.
3. Losing Your Mind Isn’t Fun.
4. Boundaries are Good!
Boundaries are super duper hard to establish. They take work and self-awareness and those don’t always come easy. No one likes when you start taking away pieces of yourself that were beneficial to them. You may hate it at first too, because you’re gonna start feeling all guilty for saying “no,” or “I can’t help you,” or “stop sucking the life out of me.” But once the boundaries are established, your life will get sooooo much easier.
5. You’re Already Fabulous.
Look, I get it. As pleasers we try to please because we want to keep the peace. Wes mad or hurt or inconvenienced. And we want people to like us because our self-worth may be wrapped up in that. But let me tell you this (which is also something I’m telling myself on this people pleasing recovery process): YOU’RE FABULOUS! And you don’t need anyone’s approval or appreciation except the people who already approve of and appreciate you. The people who don’t?
One last thing. If this thought has ever come up, “But if I don’t do XYZ, nobody else will, and everything will fall apart,” well, then you especially need to find a new way. It’s not easy, and it takes work (sometimes a looooot of work). But when you shift, it forces other people to shift too. So I don’t know. It might be worth giving a try. |
en | N/A | N/A | version is closer to that of the silky Cuban cooked corn pudding, which is also made with freshly grated corn and coconut milk, both often being served with cinnamon and vanilla.
The Spanish influence on sweet treats appears universally in the Spanish Caribbean in one version of flan custard or another. The custard-type dessert made with eggs, condensed milk, sugar, and vanilla is a favorite dessert throughout Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico and appears in as many flavors as local fruits and special regional products allow: coconut, rum, coconut rum, rum and coconut, banana, pumpkin, breadfruit, milk flan, vanilla flan, cream cheese and pineapple flan, caramel, orange, chocolate, guava, lemony, strawberry, cinnamon, honeymango, coffee, and so on—the list seems to have no end.
The lingering Spanish influence on Cuban desserts is also seen in their flan look-a-like dessert tocinillo de cielo ("little bacon from heaven"), a sweet treat of the region since the arrival of Columbus. It is simply made with egg yolks, sugar, citrus, and water—rather than the flan's whole eggs, milk, or cream (but usually both). It is lighter and sweeter than the classic Spanish flan. Tocinillo de cielo originated in the sherry-producing capital of Jerez de La Fronteta, in the southern Spanish province of Cádiz of the Andalusia region, where vintners used egg whites to clarify their world-famous Jerez wine, which is generally known to the world as sherry. The inventive Cádiz natives used the leftover yolks for tocinillo de cielo, thus creating their now well-known dessert. Citrus, itself a characteristic feature prominent in and of the early Andalusia region and brought to the Spanish Caribbean at the end of the near 800-year occupation of the Andalusia region of the Iberian Peninsula by Muslim peoples, punctuates the hallmark sweet. Modernday tocinillo de cielo can be almond-flavored, rather than citrus, another flavor favorite of Muslim Andalusia. No one really knows where or how the name "little bacon from heaven" originated, but the dessert itself dates back at least to 1324 when it was a noted sweet treat created by the nuns of the Convent of the Holy Spirit of Jerez de La Frontera. Columbus set sail from the city of Cádiz on his second and fourth voyages, suggesting a long presence of tocinillo de cielo in the Spanish Caribbean. Today, the Jerez de La Frontera region is still famous for the dessert, and its transplanted version in Cuba remains popular, although in recent years Cuban austerity programs have made it a less frequently enjoyed sweet treat than in pre-Revolutionary days.
Cubans today more often enjoy a sweet potato paste quite unlike most North American desserts. It is a very sweet, smooth, custardy cream pudding made from boniato (batata), the "Cuban white sweet potato." Less mysteriously named than the "bacon from heaven," the Cuban treat is simply called boniatillo, "white sweet potato paste pudding." It is made using the delicately flavored boniato tubers, which were in Cuba when Columbus arrived, having been domesticated with other potatoes originating in South America some 10,000 years ago. Boniatillo is a favorite holiday sweet treat, uniquely Cuban, made with the cream-colored flesh of the Cuban white sweet potatoes, dark sugar, water, heavy cream, cinnamon, citrus, and—in typical 16th-century Andalusian fashion—egg yolks and sherry.
Sweet potatoes are a main ingredient in desserts in the Spanish Caribbean, and for most sweet potato sweets-loving natives, there is simply no substitute for the boniato. It remains the favored ingredient for sweet potato pudding, sweet potato rum cake, and other similar desserts. In the Puerto Rican cocina criolla cuisine, a favorite version appears as nisperos de batata, sweet potato balls with coconut, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon. Cubans make a well-loved sweet potato cake. They likewise make a special typically Cuban sweet treat called cafiroleta, a sweet dessert of boniatillo covered with coquimol, a coconut milk custard sauce. Cubans especially enjoy coquimol on their cake. Coquimol is a sweet custard-like coconut cream sauce, also typically Cuban, made with coconut milk or coconut cream, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla, a touch of nutmeg, and light rum.
Cubans enjoy rum in things such as banana rum custard tarts, Cuban coconut rum flan (flan de coco y ron), rum and banana donuts, rum and raisin bread pudding, their version of tres leche cake, and, of course, their famous Cuban rum cake. Puerto Ricans, of course, also join in on the sponge rum cake, bizcocho de ron, with much of their attention often focused on the type of rum one chooses rather than the cake itself. Rum cakes are popular throughout the Caribbean, especially for the Christmas holidays, although, some suggest, these are a descendent of the English holiday puddings brought to the islands by mid-17th-century English settlers.
With the Cuban Revolution of 1959, Fidel Castro promoted the slogan "everyone eats the same" and, as embargos resulted in de facto compulsory locavorism, the bountiful tropical fruits and sugarcane became a renewed core of sweet treats in Cuba. However, in tropical locations throughout the world fruits fresh and dried have always been a major part of sweet treat traditions. And as many have suggested, sometimes the best sweet treat is a fresh fruit cocktail. Today folks in the Spanish Caribbean continue to enjoy the fruits Columbus came to know for the first time in his early voyages, as well as those he and subsequent explorers brought with them from Europe and neighboring Latin American countries. Today, the Spanish Caribbean fruits and the other sweet treats reflect the history of the islands. Today one readily finds coconut, pineapple, mango, papaya, passion fruit, breadfruit, guava, bananas, plantains, grapefruit, citron, and guanabanas (soursops). And, of course, one finds important ingredients and flavorings like vanilla, sesame seeds, cinnamon, pumpkin sweet potatoes, sugarcane, molasses, rice, and coffee. These fruits and other bounties combine in Spanish Caribbean unique desserts and traditional preserves, jellies, desserts, and cakes. Guava, pineapple, or strawberry jam, for example, often delightfully fills little thumb-print dimples in classical treats like Puerto Rican mantecaditos, shortbread sugar cookies popular at Christmas time.
And, of course, nowadays in the tropics of the Spanish Caribbean, these fruits and other signature flavors all sooner or later merge in one way or another in the ever- and universally-popular-anytime ice cream and ice cream treats.

en | N/A | N/A | The ATA is again calling for a type of apprenticeship for truck drivers in a bid to both gain better trained drivers and to meet the growing demand for driers in the industry.
The chair of the ATA, David Smith says that school students and recent school leavers should be able to take up truck driving apprenticeships from early 2023 at the same time releasing the peak industry body’s response to an Australian Industry Standards proposal to introduce a two year truck driver apprenticeship.
“A truck driver apprenticeship would enable apprentices to move around to different types of driving, as well as providing supervision, coaching and mentoring to help them through their training.
“The apprenticeship should be targeted at current school students (through school based training) and recent school leavers. The apprenticeship should be amended to include a forklift licence as a core unit, so apprentices can do meaningful work as soon as possible.
“The units in the apprenticeship should be subject to regular reviews as technology changes, and the qualification you get at the end should be renamed as a Certificate III in commercial heavy vehicle operations.
Mr Smith said AIS should develop a project timeline that would see the first apprentices start their training within 18 months, from early 2023. |

en | N/A | N/A | I hear all of the time how people want to "live" their lives first before giving their lives to God, but they are not truly living. They are dead in sin. but they would rather live their lives the way they want, so they ignore Him. There is no way these people are truly happy because they are dead in their sin. Thankfully though, Jesus died on the cross and took away our sins so that we can live forever with Him and find true happiness!
Many people think that if they are good people they will go to heaven, but this is not the case. I have been to many funerals where they say, "He no longer has to suffer. He is with Jesus today because he was a good man" (or something along those lines). Good works happen AFTER salvation as a way to show others that you have Christ!
If you are going through a loss right now, realize that God loves you. He even loves you so much that He sent His beloved Son to die for you. He loves you even though you are a sinner"
So don't wait until tomorrow to ask God to forgive you of your sins. You may not be here tomorrow!Give your life to God and truly live today! |

en | N/A | N/A | It's Historical? (C'mon Oprah!)
In the promotional spots for the shows Oprah will be hosting from Washington DC in honor of the Inauguration of Barack Obama, she has been shouting "It's historical!" Now, she is not the only person who has made this mistake. I heard DC mayor Adrian Fenty say it, as well as too many local newscasters to count.
It's historic. That's what you mean, people.
I suppose I might understand the confusion, if you were reading the words, or even writing them, perhaps. Historic and historical are both adjectives and they both have to do with history. But I don't quite understand how, once you've said it out loud, you don't hear the error. Doesn't it sound wrong to your ear? Would you go visit an historical home? Or an historic home?
An historical event, when you get right down to it, is anything that has happened in the past. The typing of this sentence now qualifies as a historical event, because it was an event, and it happened in the past. The typing of that sentence, however, is not destined to be remembered by history. It was not an historic event. An historic event is when the tide of history changes, when something dramatic, lasting, and important happenhistoric event. The bombing of Pearl HarborOr September 11, 2001.
An historic event is one we look back on, as the marker, the turning point, the beginning of a new era, a new So, the Inauguration of Barack Obama will be a historical event, in the sense that it will take place in a certain moment in time, and that moment will pass into history. It will be an historic event because it will be the first time an African-American man has taken the Presidential Oath of Office, and it will be remembered in history for that. But maybe, just maybe, it will become an historic moment because it will mark a turning point in our country's history, as we turn away from the course we have been on the last eight years and embark on a new way of looking at, and being in, the world.

Did you know there are such things as Ethereum and Ethereum Classic? And can you see
In today’s world, a place where digital currencies are set to continue growing their market share, this is precisely the sort of knowledge that you should know, so we have helpfully provided you with a complete lowdown. Let’s read on to find out more.
To explain what Ethereum is, could get somewhat complicated- after all this is new technology, the likes of which has not been seen before. At its most straightforward concept, Ethereum is a
If you are not sure what blockchain technology is, allow us to explain in brief. The blockchain is a revolutionary and ingenious invention – the brainchild of the brilliant and utterly anonymous Satoshi Nakamoto – the pseudonym behind Bitcoin itself. Since its design, it has grown and evolved into something even more amazing and its implications for the way we work and the way we will work in the future, are astounding.
Imagine a vast spreadsheet full of records of transactions and other data. Imagine that this worksheet is not stored on one computer and shared as a file between millions of people, instead imagine that the spreadsheets are on Google Sheets (in the cloud) and it exists on an infinite number of devices, and each time it is updated, it automatically updates on every other version.
Basically, the blockchain database and all of the information contained on it is not stored in any single, centralised location and this means that the records are entirely public and verifiable meaning it cannot be hacked, corrupted, stolen, or destroyed. As it is hosted by literally millions of computers all at the same time, the information it contains is accessible to anyone at anytime from anywhere. The great thing about blockchain is that it cannot be changed, edited, tampered with or disrupted in any way.
Now, back to Ethereum. It is similar to Bitcoin in some ways that it is a part of the purpose and what they are both capable of.
With Ethereum, miners work to earn something called Ether which is a type of crypto-token which makes the network work. Apart from being a form of useable and tradeable cryptocurrency, Ether can also be used by developers of applications to fund transaction fees and various services on the Ethereum network.
In a nutshell, “”. But what is a smart contract? A smart contract is a bit of computer script which works to facilitate, enforce, and verify negotiations or the performance of a contract. They were created by Nick Szabo way back in 1996 before the blockchain or cryptocurrencies were a “thing”.
The idea is that a smart contract contains one, or some contractual clauses that can be entirely self-executing, partially self-executing, self-enforcing, or a combination of them all. The aim is that a smart contract provides an unparalleled level of security that is entirely superior to traditional arrangements and can also reduce the costs that are associated with other forms of contracting.
An example of this would be in a property transaction where several parties have to complete several actions for the money to be released and settled- the smart contract would only fulfil the obligation of paying the money, once other parties have completed their clauses of the deal. Smart contracts are used with different cryptocurrencies, but they are most prevalent with the Ethereum blockchain where they are referred to as a decentralised application, or DApp.
The most famous of these smart contracts was The DAO, a decentralised autonomous organisation for venture capital funding. It ran on Ethereum and was launched with US$250 million in crowdfunding in 2016. However, it was hacked and then drained of over 3.6 million ETH just three weeks later.
The DAO was a digital decentralised autonomous organisation which was a crowdfunding venture capital fund. Its objective was to provide a new business model, decentralised in nature, to facilitate commercial and non-profit enterprises. It was started on the Ethereum blockchain and had no traditional management, structure, or any authority overseeing it such as a board of directors, as you would find with a conventional structure.
Created from open-source code,country, and as a result, it raised many issues regarding how government regulators may go about attempting to regulate a stateless fund.
The code behind the system was written by a programmer called Christoph Jentzsch and was promptly released on GitHub. Then on 30th of April 2016, a website was launched with a 28-day crowd sale to raise money to fund the concept. The sale of tokens raised a whopping US$34 million in just ten days along with more than US$50 million of Ether just two days later. By the 21st of May, the fund’s Ether value was an impressive US$150 million from only 11,000 investors. By the end of the month, the DAO held around 14% of all the Ether tokens that had been issued to that date.
The DAO Attack and The Consequences of It
The DAO raised significantly more money than its creators expected and this, of course, brought it a lot of attention. Some people had already highlighte because there were concerns that the code had specific vulnerabilities, leaving it open for attack.
Once the crowd sale was over, there was much talk around the vulnerabilities and how they should be addressed. One of the creators of the DAO, Stephan Tual announced that a bug had been found but that it posed no risk to the funds in the DAO. While the Ethereum network doesnt’t, and didn’t, have any bugs in it, all networked systems are vulnerable in varying degrees to some attacks.
While DAO programmers were working on fixing the bug, and some other identified issues, an unknown hacker began to start draining the DAO of Ether currency that was collected through the sale of tokens.
By the 18th of June, the hacker had managed to syphon off over 3.6 million Ether into a subsidiary account, otherwise known as a child DAO which had the same structure as the original DAO (which saw the value of Ether drop from just over $20 to under $13).
Several attempts were made to split the DAO to stop more Ether from being stolen, but these efforts failed due to the individuals not being able to get the necessary votes in such a short period.
Due to the popularity of the project and the enormous amounts of money invested in it, the Ether were all stored on one single address which is not preferable for a project of this size and was generally a bad idea. It is believed that the volunteer stopped the attack voluntarily due to the action which was later taken known as the fork. However, another attack was possible at any time.
While over $50 million worth of Ether had been stolen, it was just sat in a child-DAO meaning that it wouldn’t be taken out or accessed due to the DAO smart contract stating explicitly that any funds in a DAO structure, must remain there for 28 days. With this considered, the Ethereum community came up with a wonderful idea.
Creation of Ethereum Classic
There were three options available to the team – do nothing, a soft-fork or a hard-fork. It was argued that making any changes to the system went against the very principles of blockchain and Ethereum, considering the adage that “code is law”. This, however, was voted on and the majority of the community voted on the hard fork option.
oncept of a hard-fork when referring to Ethereum is that it is a branch which separates from the main blockchain at a specified point, in this instance, it would stop at the point right before the hacker gained access to the system.
Until that end (block 1920000), the old and new chain would be entirely the same, however, after the hard fork, the two chains become entirely mutually exclusive entities. The new chain was given the name Ethereum, and the old chain was named Ethereum Classic.
The purpose of the hard fork option was to completely refund all of the money that had been syphoned from the DAO and put into the child DAO which was under the control of the hacker. It was done through a refund smart contract which had the only function of “withdraw”.
Therefore, every 100DAO, 1 Ether would be given back to the DAO token holders. It goes without saying that this idea caused a fair bit of controversy and the once united community was divided. Some were anti-hard fork and decided to remain with the old blockchain and refer to it as Ethereum Classic, and others moved to the new blockchain and referred to it merely as Ethereum.
This battle and divide are still raging within the community to this day- centred around both ethics and ideology, it has been dubbed as ”.
How Is Ethereum Classic Different to Ethereum
The answer is something of a philosophical one and has its roots in the battle against financial corruption. Users of ETC place a lot of importance on the fact that blockchain was supposed to be unchangeable and resilient against the wishes of humans.
There are, however, some issues with ETC and these centre around the fact that it is incompatible with the Ethereum Hard Fork. Anyone that is part of the ETC is unable to access any of the future updates that were and are offered by ETH. Another failing is that many believe that ETC is a negative force that serves to attack the concept of Ethereum in the way that it is nothing more than an orphan chain that should be considered illegal.
The good point of ETC is that it honours and sticks to the original concept of Ethereum – something that cannot be changed at the will of a human, or anything else.
Of course, there are problems when it comes to ETH- we have already mentioned the issues around immutability and the philosophy and adage of “code being law”. The other significant point that was pinpointed was that, how can one be sure? What happens if, on a human whim, one decides to make multiple hard forks and therefore creates various versions of Ethereum?
Such a move would massively devalue and destabilise the cryptocurrency, and the concept of cryptocurrency in general. With hundreds or evenit would be a total disaster.
ETH is now growing at an impressive rate and has the backing of all the key players that were involved in the original creation of Ethereum. The initial hack was reversed, and everyone that lost money in the DAO hack has been refunded. Due to fears over security, a great deal of care is now taken to keep it regularly updated, and it is now backed by a large and very powerful group of over 2000 corporations known as the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, which desires to use the blockchain to implement smart contracts at Fortune 500 companies. Esteemed members include JP Morgan, Microsoft, Toyota and ING.

en | N/A | N/A | “Miss Laurie Ann is straight up old school and has the chops to prove it. If your thing is American Music you must have this record”
Vincent Bator – The Springfield Indie Music Examiner
One doesn’t typically think of Irvington New Jersey as a source for Roots song-writers. But when your Daddy raised you on a steady diet of Hank Williams records along with various swing and blues artists of the time, and your Mama played steel guitar, it’s gets in your blood fast. Miss Laurie Ann started writing songs at an early age and has developed an extensive collection of tight, well crafted songs that tell stories of love, come and gone. Much in the tradition of The Blasters and The Paladins, her musical style is “American Music”, combining elements of 50’s rhythm & blues, rockabilly, traditional country and swing.
The second album from Miss Laurie Ann & The SaddleTones, entitled Ease My Mind, showcases her American Music influences. Produced by legendary guitarist and songwriter Dave Gonzalez of The Paladins and The Hacienda Brothers, the album covers a wide range of roots styles including country, swing, rockabilly and the blues. The album was recorded and mixed all analog utilizing vintage recording equipment and techniques such as a RCA 44BX ribbon microphone, Otari MX70 8-track recorder, EMT model 140 plate reverb, and tape-to-tape slapback echo. It was recorded live in a “big room” setting to capture that vibe so prevalent in the recordings of the 50’s, 60’s, and early 70’s.
Miss Laurie Ann has been performing with her band, The SaddleTones, for almost ten years now. The SaddleTones include Joe Brensinger on guitar, Ira Spinrad on guitar, Jimmy Beckerman on keys, Howard Girao on upright bass and Davie Lee Ross on drums.They continue to perform at honky-tonks, theaters, festivals and many other events along the east coast. Along the way they have shared the stage with artists such as Wanda Jackson, The Blasters, Reckless Kelly, Dale Watson, Wayne Hancock, Dave Gonzalez, Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys, Nikki Hill, Jittery Jack and others.
“Miss Laurie Ann & The SaddleTones really are rock-boppin country, walking that fine line between 40’s honk-tonk and 50’s rockabilly. ” Mark Gamsjager – The Lustre Kings
” Good music made by good people. Ease My Mind will ease yours” Jerome Clark – Rambles. Net
“Miss Laurie Ann & The SaddleTones are proud purveyors of a Rock-Boppin Country sound that is nothing short of infectious. Lead vocalist, and song-writer, Miss Laurie Ann, has a voice that is pure classic country in the vein of Kitty Wells meets Wanda Jackson.”
“Take a good amount of country, add a touch of western swing, and just enough rock n roll and you have Miss Laurie Ann & The SaddleTones.”
Sam Pierre – Le Cri du Coyote
“Every song on this album could be in steady rotation on a truck stop diner jukebox when my Uncle Gene drove his big rig and cb radios weren’t around yet.” |

Added by Dennis NicklausOAC envisioned would have three parameters that drive combinations of the circuits for the desired effect: horizontal correction, vertical correction, or skew quadrupole. Each of these circuits can be driven at +/-2 Amps, so if one coil of the magnet is already at its limit, it will be up to the OAC to prevent tuning that would require it to regulate at any greater magnitude. The circuits are being laid out in a clockwise configuration so that the the upper left coil from the beam's perspective is coil 1, the upper right is coil 2, the lower right is coil 3, and the lower left is coil 4:
A vertical adjustment requires adjusting coils 1 & 2 opposite 3 & 4
A skew quad adjustment requires adjusting coils 1 & 3 opposite 2 & 4
Does this sound reasonable? If so I can get you a complete list of the combined function circuits that we'll need to control. If you have any other questions or legwork I can certainly try to help. The individual circuits aren't in the database yet, but I'd expect them to be going in in the next few weeks.
#1 Updated by Richard Neswold almost 2 years ago
Are these magnets being controlled by the networked power supplies I'm working on for Mike Kucera? If so, I would think high-level logic could be in my front-end rather than an OAC. |
en | N/A | N/A | Brief Psychotherapy Research Program Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders Center
Zirinsky Mood Disorders Center Anxiety and Trauma Center
This dedicated to clinical research because we recognize it’s importancand behavioral disorders. Our innovative research encompasses a wide range of psychiatric disorders—from persistent and more widespread behavioral disorders such as social phobia, anxiety, and psychological trauma. Equally diverse is our research into different treatment modalities, including trials of novel psychopharmacological treatments and innovative non-pharmacological psychotherapeutic modalities such as brief psychotherapy.
All research in the department is approved by the Institutional Review Board. Funding sources include federal granting agencies ), pharmaceutical companies, and private granting agencies. The Department has six dedicated Research Divisions: The Division of Biological Psychiatry, the Clinical Research Center (CRC), the Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders Center, Zirinsky Mood Disorders Center, Anxiety and Trauma Center and the Brief Psychotherapy Research Program, all of which are described below. Division of Biological Psychiatry
The Division of Biological Psychiatry, located withiBeth Israel, is dedicated to high quality research into the critical questions of contemporary psychiatry. One of it’s major areas is broadly defined addictive behaviors—including traditionally defined chemical addictions (i.e. opiate dependence) and behavioral addictions such as excessive and deviant sexual behaviors. Other areas of research have included schizophrenia, mood and anxiety disorders, impact of education on cognitive functioning, negative symptoms and apathy, and research integrity. The chemical addiction research focuses primarily on opiate abuse, while addictive behavior studies focus on pedophilia. Past opiate addiction research included a NIDA-funded PET investigation of negative mood and attention in methadone-maintained and abstinent opiate addicted individuals. Associated studies included extensive descriptive studies on neuropsychological, personality, and neurosensory abnormities in opiate abuse. Current research studies focus on mood disorders in opiate abusers in protracted abstinence. These include fMRI studifMRI Imaging Center, of negative mood induction, as well as treatment studies of opiate abuse associated dysphoria. Past pedophilia studies have investigated the personality, neuropsychology, childhood abuse history, phallometric response, and brain function (as measured by FDG PET) of male pedophilia. At present we are continuing our investigation of personality and cognitive profiles of pedophiles with the goal of eventually identifying those with the highest risk of recidivism. As part of this study we are also investigating recently compiled public databases of sex offendersy funding and outcomes in clinical research and the analysis of the effects of education on the fuctional neuroanatomy of attentional processes. In addition the division is conducting a joint research program with the Brief Psychotherapy Program to study attachment behavior. The division is using fMRI to study brain function in attachment and investigating central nervous system changes during the process of psychotherapy.
Division personnel include Igor Galynker, M.D., Ph.D., Director, Lisa Cohen, Ph.D., Associate Director, James Prosser, MD, Instructor, and 15 additional staff members, five of whom are full-time. In its eight-year history, the Division has obtained more than 20 grants, totaling about 2 million dollars, from outside funding agencies, including NIHIn addition, the Division has produced approximately 30 published papers and 100 presentations.
From its inception, the Division of Biological Psychiatry has been centrally involved in training. Trainees from Beth Israel’s psychiatric residency, university psychology departments, and medical schools, as well as foreign-trained doctors applying for American residency programs, have all participated in research. Many have had, whether it involves obtaining a prestigious research fellowship or entering a psychiatric residency or a psychology doctoral program.
For more information on the Division of Biological Psychiatry, please call (212) 844-1598.
The Clinical Research Center (CRC), in collaboration with clinical divisions, conducts pharmaceutical trials w ithin the Department. Both multi-center and investigator-initiated drug trials have been sponsored by numerous pharmaceutical companies. The investigational drugs studied targeted symptoms of schizophrenia, depression, anxiety and panic, dysthymia, dementias, and other disorders. The center is staffed with clinical research coordinators and raters, who are trained in the administration of psychometric scales and data management, and are inter-rater reliable. A single centralized database is maintained for all studies. The CRC is integrated with the teaching programs in the Department. Trainees from the Beth Israel psychiatry residency training program, foreign and graduate and undergraduate students have all participated in research. Most have used their training experience to progress to the next level in their clinical and research careers.
For more information on the Clinical Research Center, please call (212) 844-2204.
Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders Center This Centerassesses the use of novel treatments (medications, psychotherapies, rehabilitation) for the schizophrenia spectrum disorders. We are investigating factor influencing adherence to treatment and designing new methods to improve treatment adherence. Other research projects address capacity to consent to research and to understand the informed consent process.
Zirinsky Mood Disorders Center The Zirinsky Center specializes in research of bipolar illness and individuals with these conditions. The center also conducts state-of-the-art, clinical trials. Recent research projects include studies of treatment adherence and health behaviors, and development of new methods to improve both of these issues. Other projects address the relationship between anxiety, panic, and suicidality. Plans are underway to develop a family centered research and treatment program for bipolar patients and their families. top
Center for Anxiety and Trauma Disorders The Center for Anxiety and Trauma Disorders engages in treatment and research into new medicationfor patients with anxiety and trauma disorders. The main focus of the Center is on the relationship between panic, dissociation, PTSD, and suicidal and dangerous behaviors. The Center also conducts a number of treatment groups for trauma and anxiety disorder patients. top Brief Psychotherapy Research Program
The Brief Psychotherapy Research Program conducts innovative studiesigned to shorten the therapy process, brief psychotherapy focuses on very specific problem areas and involves high levels of therapist activity. A major focus of our brief psychotherapy research is the patient/therapist relationship. These studies investigate the process of forming a therapeutic alliance, maintaining it, and repairing ruptures in the alliance. The Brief Psychotherapy Research program offers specialized treatment for adults who suffer from and/or interpersonal problems. If thorough evaluation indicates that short-term treatment is appropriate, a therapist is assigned to the patient. Treatment consists of 30 psychotherapy sessions and involves a number of different psychotherapy models. An NIMH funded study is investigating the training of therapists in an integrated brief psychotherapy, cl/relational approaches.
In addition, the Brief Psychotherapy Research Program is engaged in collaborative research with the Division of Biological Psychiatry studying the process of attachment (see section on Research in the Division of Biological Psychiatry).
For more information on the Brief Psychotherapy Research Program, please call (212) 420-3819.
Research in Addiction Psychiatry:
The Addiction Psychiatry Division conducts research in 3 areas -- in collaboration with the large, multimodal substance abuse treatment facilities of the Chemical Dependency programs of Mount Sinai Beth Israel. First, we conduct descriptive studies to characterize the prevalence and nature of dual diagnoses and secondary substance use in patients with identified primary substance use disorders. Second, we conduct treatment studies to develop new approaches to improve retention and outcome among patients entering Chemical Dependency programs, who are readily prone to early drop-out. These approaches include psychopharmacologic and behavioral treatments. Third, we conduct services research studies to identify patterns, as well as barriers to and promoters of, adherence to treatment. top
ResearchClinical research in this field of psychiatry looks at the different psychological and psychiatric manifestations of and reactions to medical-surgical illness. Past research efforts have looked at "Psychiatric Diagnosis Among Women with HIV/AIDS", "Psychological Outcomes of Ambulatory Mastectomy", "Drug-drug Interactions Between Protease Inhibitors and Psychotropic Medications", and "Personality Styles Among People Attending a Diabetes Clinic" to name a few. The Division's interests remain strongly influenced by issues connected to HIV/AIDS, Oncology, and Delirium. New research projects are currently being developed in these areas. Examples include studying the psychological implications of lipodystrophy among women with AIDS, and identifying potential risk factors or vulnerabilities for the development of delirium.

“I tend to think of poetry as a technology, as an ancient, durable data storage solution. Humans invented poetic devices to save and transmit information: behaviors, stories, and memories that we had no other way of storing before written language. For many people, poetry and technology don’t go together. They regard poetry as the essence of what it means to be human, and technology as soulless, unemotional, nonhuman. But technology is what has made us human over time.”
Artist Sasha Stiles creates in a unique space amongst art and science, poetry and technology,And while these fields are often posed as opposites, Stiles isn’t so limiting. Her creative process explores the possibility of a post-human world and results in traditional verse, collaborative AI poetry, and artwork based in binary code. Her Cursive Binary series consists of words and phrases in binary code but written in her own handwriting, while Analog Binary Code represents digital language as tactile objects. Technelegy (technology + elegy) is the “transhuman alter ego” for Stiles and the AI with which she collaborates in eir collaborative poems as well as her own poetry explore age-old themes with a forward-looking twist: what it means to give birth, to be alive, to die, to live forever AI researcher, and co-founder of theVERSEverse, an NFT poetry gallery. As poetry mentor to BINA48 since 2018, she Stiles’s cross-media work has been honored in the Future Art Awards, nominated f, exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Digital Art, Miami Art Week, SXSW, New York Fashion Week and Virtual Times Square, published as NFTs, and auctioned at Christie’s.

A downtown businessman and developer has questioned whether the city violated its own bylaws with disposal of the parking garage at One Riverside Drive West without putting it out for tender or for sale on the open market.35 PM EST
The parking garage at One Riverside Drive West is seen on Nov. 7, 2017. Dax Melmer / Windsor Starby selling“In disposing of anything over $25,000, it should be made available to the public,” said Joe Mikhail of Mikhail Holdings which owns the downtown CIBC and Starbucks buildings. “They have to go through the procedure and put it out there. (The parking garage) does not belong to council, it belongs to taxpayers.”
“Everything has to be transparent. I am not going to get into the deal and whether they got too much or too little — just follow all the rules.”
But Windsor’s city solicitor Shelby Askin Hager said the city’s original 1999 agreement for the riverfront building allowed council to avoid putting the parking garage up for sale.
“That agreement prescribes on how all things are dealt with,” she said. “With the parking garage, the owner has the right of first refusal. If we wanted to sell the garage, we had to go to them first any way. We could have went to public tender if we were not happy with the offer and try to maximize the return.
“But to dispose of the asset it was in the agreement that binds us to go to them first, so there was no violation of the bylaw.”
Council voted unanimously Monday One Riverside Drive West for $6 million to the building’s owner, Europro Real Estate, which bought the office building just over a year ago for $32 million.
The 521 parking spots in the garage are primarily filled each weekday by employees who work in the building.
Mayor Drew Dilkens first hinted in August the city was looking at selling the garage which he described as a money loser over the past five years. Since 2012, the garage has been losing between $47,000 and $110,000 a year, he told the Star.
A Europro spokeswoman indicated Tuesday gaining control of the garage works nicely with contractual obligations the company has with the building’s tenants.
“One Riverside is a cornerstone downtown building and we continue to believe that a successful downtown is vital to the vibrancy of the city as a whole,” said Nelly Horovitz.
She noted the retail corner of the building currently occupied by National Bank “will soon become available and offers potential tenants a marquee corner.”
It had been on the city’s wish list for years to remove itself from all connections to the former Canderel building, but there were no opportunities under previous ownership, said CAO Onorio Colucci.
Europro felt it was critical to securing future tenants to have “full control over the parking operation” and was willing to end all lease arrangements in order to achieve that, he said. Discussions began a year ago, soon after the company purchased the building, Colucci said.
The city’s parking garage commitment otherwise would have stretched until 2101.
Colucci disputed the opinion the city would have done better than $6 million putting the garage up for sale.
“If there was even a small chance, that’s the route we would have gone,” he said. “All the spaces are tied up in long-term leases that are below market value for tenants in the building (predominantly FCA Canada).
“There is not a business case for another user buying the garage by charging higher fees, because of those long-term leases. That’s why this was the only sale that made sense.”
Windsor Family Credit Union holds the mortgage on the building for Europro. A separate agreement includes 25 per cent ownership of the building. Former Mayor Eddie Francis is now WFCU president.
WFCU is “a silent investor” and has no say in the building’s direction, said Francis on Tuesday.
“The building’s owners have full control,” he said. “We are a limited investor and they do everything to manage and operate the building.”
The credit union got involved as part owner in the “belief” that Europro’s vision for the building fits “with what we want to see in the community,” Francis said.
He had no comment on the city’s ability to finally rid itself of costly agreements and obligations to the riverfront tower.
His brother, Fred Francis, sits on city council, but city clerk Valerie Critchley confirmed he declared a conflict on Monday’s council vote to sell the parking garage and other agreements on the riverfront building with Europro.
In regards to his brother on council, Eddie Francis indicated rules and procedures ensured “he had nothing to do with the decisions” that were made.

I used to travel a lot for last 5 years and now working on my projects more but host rarely with the lack of free time. If it happens, I can guide you through local community of activists, creative and social enterpreneurs.
When I'm traveling I'm interested in politics, arts, activism and grassroots initiatives, also cities' routine, daily life of people. The best thing is to make something good for a place: go clean the beaches from trash, cook and feed people outdoors, organize a party for random people in the park. Now I go somewhere more for study or exchange.
[ Sorry, I won't be able to host you for the World Cup cause with the flatmates we'v rented out all space:( But please let me know if you wanna joing the campaign.]

en | N/A | N/A | last week i fell.
it was a tornado of several things. . .but it all boiled down to me feeling like a failure.
even as a hobbyiest.
but it brought me down low and made me come face to face with some pretty deep issues about myself. . .
which meant then i could try to work on them.
and yesterday afternoon i felt a huge shift. followed by moment after moment of light and kairos.
there were two things i finally did this week that i have been advised to do for four years. sometimes i am slow at learning. but, sometimes i think that's okay. things take awhile to process. it all works out. a good reminder to be patient with ourselves, or others.
so i kinda hit a rock bottom, and was able to bounce back up. and it reminded me of this post i wrote several years ago about failure.
last night tim and i watched mom's night out. for the first thirty minutes we laughed so hard, i had to lean forward and clutch my stomach to breathe. at one point (while the mom is in the closet having a melt-down) tim asked looking around, "are there cameras in our house?" if you want to know what i'm really like, when i'm not with you, this movie might give you a pretty good idea:). and there is tim (like the husband in the movie), bringing home flowers again and trying to talk me down again.
but, i show up.
and sometimes, just sometimes, i am rewarded with a flood of kairos in one night to give me a glimpse of what the bagpipes might sound like.
skyler made an impromptu "cooking show" during dinner prep. i filmed him making salad and quinoa salad and it was pretty much adorbs.
how can you go wrong when raw chocolate and coconut oil are involved? these are the cookies (made by 'raw melissa') i am willing to buy for $1 a piece at good earth when i am too lazy to make them.
these moment of kairos were followed by some awesome bonding time with davis and his new hedgehog. while we were cleaning out his cage. seriously.
and then tim came home late and skyler was DYING to read mo willems elephant and piggie book with him (skyler is SO excited about these books).
then we had family prayer all on my bed. all five of us, with roxy (our dog) and hedgie (the hedgehog). skyler laughed his head off all through the prayer, but for once i didn't feel like giving up. i felt like this was just as it should be.
highs and lows and try agains. |

The resort features Islands and plenty of overwater and beach villas that allow their guests to admire the blissful coral reef around.
Hurawalhi Maldives is situated in the Lhaviyani Atoll, home to a wide variety of marine life including the largest population of turtles and manta rays.

Dining in the Hurawalhi Maldives’ incredible undersea glass restaurant is all you have to do.
The adults-only resort is known for its determination in preserving the coral reef ecosystem surrounding the atoll. For that, it even worked together with the Hurawalhi Marine Biology Center. The coral reef isuch as the black reef tip shark and the eagle ray, and over 200 species of coral.
There are several resident marine biologist workshops and trips available for sharing the knowledge about all this marine environment and fragile ecosystem.
When it comes to accommodation, guests are offered Ocean Pool Villas boasting 25 square meter infinity pools and sundecks with staircase access to the lagoon, and Beach Pool Villas with their own private beaches.

en | N/A | N/A | A leading transportation research organization wants to know what you think about the availability of truck parking.
Researchers want to know what you think
The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) collected over 800 driver surveys on the topic of truck parking at last week’s Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS) in Louisville.
Drivers who did not attend MATS can still provide input on truck parking. ATRI’s survey is now available to drivers online through its website at www.atri-online.org. ATRI will collect driver responses on the truck parking survey through the end of April.
ATRI’s latest survey cross-references driver perceptions of truck parking availability with the viability of truck parking reservation systems and exactly how truck drivers put a “value” on truck parking availability.
This latest ATRI data collection initiative was driven by the selection of truck parking as one of the top priority research topics for 2015 by ATRI’s Research Advisory Committee (RAC). Additionally, truck parking continues to rank high in ATRI’s annual Top Industry Issues Survey; in the 2014 survey Truck Parking ranked sixth overall but among truck drivers in the survey it ranked second, eclipsed only by the challenges associated with the hours-of-service regulations.

en | N/A | N/A | I've never heard of "halti" before, but the gentle leader is a leash that goes over the nose and hooks under their chin. Basically it has the same principle as a horse's bit, where it leads them by the nose. I have a friend who also swears by them, but she gets lots of funny looks because people think it's a muzzle.
We now use a prong collar to train. He no longer pulls when we walk and doesn't need the collar. When we practice obedience training or teach him new commands, we use a prong collar. However, unless you are taught the correct way to use a prong collar, never use it.
I have a halti which is like a gentle leader for Presley.. I personaly don't like it! If you'd like i will send it to you!!!!
I do not like them but i guess they do work for some.
we have lupis for our dogs, they are like a sled harnes but smaller. They have worked wonders with our lab Chester. Chester was never walked properly with my parents, they took him for runs, so his walk manners were horrible. When we got them after my parents separated (long story) we got lupis for the both of them and now Chester is learing manners. It tugs on their chest without hurting them and teaches them not to pull, we love them. Bobbie who is a terrier does not like hers so much but has gotten used to it and it is so nice to walk her with it.

I tried a harness and she still pulled horribly. After almost a year of many attempts with differnt techniques and methods, We started her in her third training class last week and at that time decided to try a prong collar. I was sure I was against it, but gave it a shot and she is doing much better. As Doggies said, DO NOT use this unless you have been taught the proper way. I only decided to go to this becuase we have tried everything else and because we were shown how to use and actually allowed to borrow it and try it for a week before we buy it. Cincy has class tonight and I think we are going to go ahead with it. We only sue it when training and if we are walking by other dogs, we put her in a sit stay and change to her regular collar until we get by. I don't want to take any chnces with it.

I forgot to add that most dogs will try to get it off and that is the biggest problem. You must NEVER let your dog get it off then it know it can come off and will continue doing so & try harder harder each time.

At a meeting of the South Orange Board of Trustees on Monday, it was announced that the Irvington Avenue Corridor Advisory Committee would brand the area as Seton Village. Acorner of Irvington Avenue and West Fairview Avenue in the business district tomorrow afternoonhe little town of Paradise, Kentucky was the site of McLean Drift Bank, the first commercial coal operation in Kentucky. Coal mining and coal users such as iron furnaces and, later, power plants, quickly grew around the little town. Paradise was eventually partly strip mined, becoming the topic of the famous John Prine song “Paradise.” When the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) enlarged the enormous Paradise Fossil Plant, air pollution became so dangerous that the whole town was bought and bulldozed. Today, the land around the Paradise Steam Plant is a blasted landscape, thousands of acres of pothole lakes and ridges of mine spoil. The TVA is preparing to convert the Paradise Fossil Plant to natural gas and the coal era will come to an end for Paradise.
You might not know this from the local news. Our politicians are busy fighting over who is the best “Friend of Coal” and are trying to convince Kentuckians that coal is the only thing keeping us alive. The “war on coal” exists only in the fevered imaginations of Mitch McConnell and other pols. If there is a war on coal, it is simply market forces at work. Fighting the end of coal is a losing proposition. Legal and political challenges to the new EPA regulations will fail because our very conservative Supreme Court has already instructed the EPA to treat greenhouse gases as a threat to our health and welfare under the Clean Air Act. It would have been better for Congress to pass implementing legislation, but we all know that Congress is presently incapable of accomplishing anything important.
Kentucky has something much more valuable than coal: water. In the Bluegrass, where I have made my home for more than 30 years, water creates our verdant hills, productive farms, sparkling lakes and gentle rivers. It is water that will create our future prosperity.
Global warming will dry out the West and drown the coasts. Businesses, farmers, industries and families will have to seek more suitable climates. This has already begun: I know two farmers who have given up on raising cattle in Texas and moved to more productive land in Kentucky.

en | N/A | N/A | WUmbrella Movement, many people’s thoughts have been turning to the current state of Hong Kong politics. The Umbrella Movement ended in a stalemate: on the one hand the government refused to make the slightest concession to the protesters, but the movement was successful in ensuring that the political reform package proposed by Beijing (but with a strict vetting of candidates by Beijing loyalists) was voted down in June 2015. While then-Chief Executive CY Leung continued to refer to the movement as illegal and to threaten the democrats with an electoral backlash at the 2016 LegCo elections, his strategy at first stalled on both counts. Courts were initially reluctant to follow the government in freedom of assembly cases. The 2016 LegCo elections were a resounding victory for the pro-democracy camp, and a number of post-Umbrella groups were able to send representatives to LegCo.
However, the post-election sequence was disastrous for the pro-democracy camp. The ill-advised idea of several lawmakers to take their oaths accompanied by various theatrics and verbal slurs finally provided the Beijing government with an opening to intervene directly. When the NPC standing committee, in an unprecedented move, adopted an interpretation of the Basic Law, unsolicited by the Hong Kong government or courts, which intervened directly into an ongoing court case, it not only eliminated Yau Wai-ching and Baggio Leung, but also profoundly transformed the nature of LegCo elections. Subsequently, the interpretation served as a basis first to disqualify four other duly elected lawmakers, and then to preemptively eliminate candidates from standing for by-elections. In both cases, the curbing of basic political rights was actively abetted by the Hong Kong Department of Justice, which aggressively prosecuted lawmakers and produced legal arguments to support administrative disqualifications. After six pro-democracy lawmakers had been eliminated in this manner (removing the camp’s veto power), the rules of procedure in LegCo were changed to end filibusters. This sequence has, for all practical purposes, put an end to the chamber’s role as a counter-balance to the government. While the first years after the handover continued to see incremental progress towards more democratic institutions as foreseen in the Basic Law, since Beijing’s White Paper on One Country Two Systems was published in 2014, the movement has been reversed, and the dynamics now point towards an ongoing reduction of the degree of democracy in Hong Kong’s institutions. Political reform is likely to be permanently shelved.
In parallel, the DoJ’s aggressive strategy of appealing judgments seen as too lenient, including by reportedly overruling the Director of Prosecutions (making use of a power that the pro-democracy camp had fought hard to eliminate at the time the Basic Law was adopted), has gradually eroded the judiciary’s resistance to the new legal mindset. Although the Court of Final Appeals ended up overturning the prison sentences in the Civic Square case, it reaffirmed the colonial-era Public Order ordinance and adopted a new standard which tends to place the onus on demonstrators to take preemptive steps to avoid the slightest injury to police during rallies. These were precisely the colonial laws that triggered large-scale protests in the 1970s and 1980s before Chris Patten amended the ordinance, a decision that was reversed by the pro-Beijing provisional LegCo after the handover.
These steps are all in keeping with the re-interpretation ow.
Posters extolling the Greater Bay Area in HK’s MTR
Finally, while many Umbrella Movement participants tend to stress their achievement of bringing about deeper changes in the mindsets of the Hong Kong public, this too has been met by a counter-strategy on behalf of the Hong Kong government and pro-Beijing forces. The extravagant and far-over-budget infrastructure projects (High Speed Rail and HK-Macao Bridge) have been accompanied by a new discourse about integrating Hong Kong into a fuzzy “Greater Bay Area,” in which the city’s problems of lack of space, expensive housing and lack of care for the elderly can finally be solved. In this case too, CY Leung has played a pioneering role, proudly proclaiming his new-found identity as a “Greater Bay Area Person.” Beijing has provided increased administrative convenience for Hong Kong passport-holders in the mainland. While this effort is more subtle than previous attempts to promote national identity, it shares the goal of diluting Hong Kong’s political specificities and further blurring the border between “river water” and “well water” (as Deng Xiaoping once put it). Many legal experts believe the decision to place part of Hong Kong territory under mainland jurisdiction for the increased convenience of a short train ride has no basis in the Basic Law. But it certainly contributes to affirming and making visible Beijing’s “comprehensive jurisdiction.”
Ultimately, these developments raise the question of Hong Kong’s historical trajectory. Today, there is a strong feeling of a return to the political and public order restrictions of the colonial era. Politically critical groups will probably retreat to marginal spaces, as they did under British rule in the 1960s and 1970s. It is surely no coincidence that 2017 saw a rash of critical engagements with the 1967 riots and their aftermath. The growing exclusion of the pro-democracy camp from LegCo may push the opposition to regroup in a dangwai configuration like in Taiwan. Consequently, the momentum that Hong Kong’s civil society built up in the 1980s and 1990s, may be reconfigured as a simple historical parenthesis of 30 years, lasting roughly from the first elected LegCo seats in 1985 until the White Paper of 2014. On the other hand, it is undeniable that Hong Kong society has begun to shake off some of its colonial apathy. Is there then still a chance that the dynamics of decolonization, as claimed by the Umbrella and post-Umbrella movements, can quietly work towards a deeper transformation of society? Can these transformations counteract the powerful dynamics of integration promoted with unlimited resources by the government? This slow race between competing social dynamics is likely to shape the political situation of Hong Kong in the coming years.

Yellowing: Memo for a Generation |
en | N/A | N/A | On Wednesday, we learned that new home sales in January hit a historic low, dating back nearly half a century. As if that wasn't bad enough, things got worse today with the news that existing January home sales also slumped unexpectedby 7.2% last month from December levels.
Though year-over-year sales improved by 11.4%, the January slide surprised many analysts, who were expecting a slight increase. Why anyone would be surprised is a mystery. With U-6 the unemployment rate at 17%, And everyone else is afraid they're going to join those ranks.
The most worrisome element is this; if government tax credits (scheduled to expire on April 30) and artificially suppressed
interest rates aren't boosting home sales, what will?
Is it realistic to expect that Americans – who are desperately trying to reduce or get out of debt – will be inspired to buy a home due a tax credit ranging from $6.500 to $8,000? The median home price nationally is $164,700 for existing homes, and $203,500 for new homes. This means that the government tax credit ranges from 4%-5% of the sales price. That's hardly motivational, especially for people worried about their employment prospects.
Reports indicate that many existing homes are being bought by investors who plan to rent or flip them, particularly in the case of foreclosed homes. Distressed or foreclosed homes made up 38% of all sales nationally in January.
All of the government intervention may simply be expediting sales that would have occurred anyway, as in the case of the Cash for Clunkers program. And despite that intervention, the government cannot thwart what is a plainly organic and natural reaction to economic trends.
The issues in both housing and unemployment are equally deep and structural. Neither will rebound any time soon. It is very likely that these problems with will linger, remaining with us for years to come.
Apparently, government intervention cannot overcome the will of the markets, or the rational anxieties of millions of Americans.

en | N/A | N/A | UKAS celebrates World Quality Day 2020, featuring Rob Bettinson’s views on this important event.
As the UK’s sole National Accreditation Body, UKAS is proud of the role we play in enabling all our accredited organisations to maintain excellent quality and ensure the quest for continuous improvement delivers even greater value to their customers and end-users of their services.
One of the aims of accreditation is to support and encourage continual improvement, with UKAS helping accredited organisations ensure high quality is maintained through our rigorous and impartial assessment programme. These assessments provide a valuable opportunity for participating organisations to examine and re-examine products, processes and competencieossible.
Innovation is an important aspect of this process as it is vitally important to ensure the best tools and processes are adopted as they are developed and proven.
The constant mission for improvement is embedded at the core of UKAS’ own operation. One of the primary catalysts for improvement is the continuous feedback loop that we maintain with our accredited organisations. By regularly seeking feedback and listening to our customers we can be clear on our strengths, as well as being vigilant to where improvements can be made. We also pay attention to the innovations or additional services that may add value
Agility is something that all accredited bodies need to demonstrate, and the additional challenges of 2020 have proved this point beyond all doubt. This year UKAS had to demonstrate this agility ourselves by rapidly implementing a remote assessment programme that allowed our customers to maintain their accredited status whilst ensuring the marketplace could continue to have confidence in UKAS accredited services. As a result of this, 90% of assessments carried out in 2020 have been done remotely.
Onl ‘Are we doing the best we can?’; ‘Is this still the best process to use?’ and ‘What improvements can we make?’ can an organisation achieve and maintain exceptional quality.
These are questions that UKAS asks of itself on a daily basis, which is the guiding principal for delivering and enhancing customer value in a continuously evolving world.
Rob Bettinson has also shared his views on World Quality Day, reflecting on how UKAS’ own practices create customer value and facilitate the same in others in this short video. |

The disease, called "Vitamin-D-dependent rickets" in the accompanying article, was first segregated from the array of "Vitamin-D-resistant rickets" by Fraser and Salter2 (Type III, A, ii, in their classification), and by Prader and colleagues3 (hereditary pseudo-vitamin-D-deficiency rickets, in their terminology). The condition is characterized by signs and symptoms which appear in the first year of life, and which are easily mistaken for those of severe (Stage III) vitamin D deficiency4. As revealed in typical case reports of the condition3,5, manifestations include muscular weakness, convulsions, severe rickets, growth failure, hypophosphatemia, low or normal total serum calcium, mild renal tubular acidosis, and hyperaminoaciduria. |

Known for his haze-induced lyrics like fellow cohort Curren$y, DZA recognizes this stigma on his letter to the industry, “To Whom It May Concern,” where he pens, “Give ‘em dope lines, they say I only give them smoke rhymes.” Later, he trades bars with Compton prodigy Kendrick Lamar over the soulful backdrop of Surf Club’s Hit Boy on “How Far We Go (Uptown 81),” and sons posers on the menacing “Fuck Is You Talking About,” spitting, “Hijackers, so sad/Call me Father MC, ghost dad.”

The aim is for the skies on the Hi-Tek-produced “The Early Days Of George,” before DZA rides shotgun with Big K.R.I.T. on the bouncy “Gotta Get Paid.”
Unfortunately his vision gets a little blurred with the anemic “Loaded,” where Lex Luger’s signature sound does little for DZA’s anemic raps, while “Profit” suffers from simple raps about money and Mary Jane, and the simple beat of “White Papers” does nothing for Devin The Dude’s signature crooning. T.H.C. (The Hustler’s Catalog) is meant to be Smoke DZA’s brochure on higher learning, and though he’s able to score high on some tracks, perhaps his next course will have a more comprehensive lesson plan. —Meka Udoh </s> Rockies 7, Giants 0
Jamie Moyer had another strong outing in his bid to earn a spot in the Colorado Rockies' rotation. The 49-year-old left-hander struck out four in four perfect innings Thursday night to help the Rockies beat a split squad of San Francisco 7-0. Moyer, a 24-year veteran who has won 267 major league games with seven teams, went to a three-ball count only twice and 30 of his 45 pitchers were strikes. ''Was I quick enough for you tonight,'' Ml. '''' Angel Pagan was the only Giants player to make solid contact against him, lining out to center field to start the game. Moyer spent last season as an analyst for ESPNw. He signed with Colorado as a minor-league free agent in January. With his strong spring, which includes giving up just one earned run in nine innings against full squads, Moyer is in the mix for what looks to be three open spots in the Rockies' rotation. A''You ow.'' Overall, it was a good day for the Rockies' uncertain starting pitching. Jerry Guthrie, acquired in a trade with Baltimore during the offseason, worked six innings in a minor league game, giving up one run and striking out six. Guthrie could be the Rockies' opening-day starter, a role he had three times during his five seasons in Baltimore. ''I felt good out there tonight, I kept the ball down in the zone. An overall good outing, 87 pitches and 57 strikes, I'll take that,'' Guthrie said. Former Twins outfielder Michael Cuddyer, who signed a three-year deal with Colorado, hit his first spring homer,. N. ... The Giants and Padres lead NL teams with 12 victories. Coming in, the Giants were tops among NL squads in batting (.295) and ERA (3.11). were hoping to get back to winning against the New Jersey Devils Thursday night. But as the game progressed, hope faded quickly and the Bolts struggled offensively once again losing 4-2. With New Jersey leading 1-0 in the second period, Nate Thompson tied it up for the Lightning when Martin St. Louis found him alone in front of then net. However, New Jersey went on to score three unanswered goals including two in the third period after an odd sequence of penalties against Tampa Bay were called. Lightning defenseman Matt Carle would score with 2:15 left in regulation but obviously proved to not be enough. The Lightning managed just 19 shots on goal for the game. Devils’ goaltender Martin Brodeur stopped 17 of those 19 shots. The Tampa Bay Lightning power play has gone sour the past couple games. They were 0-for-4 against Devils. The Lightning are now 6-4-0 with 12 points on the season. Fortunately, they still lead the Southeast division by two points over the Carolina Hurricanes.

en | N/A | N/A | Fika involves taking time out to enjoy cake and coffee with friends or family or even alone. It's about slowing down and enjoying a moment in the day, which we think can only be a good thing.
Our favourite baked good to enjoy during fika is the classic cardamom bun. You'll see them everywhere in coffee shops windows from Stockholm to Gothenburg and are enjoyed by Swedes regularly with their daily cup (or three) of filter coffee. We have been so inspired by the Cardamom Bun during our travels to the Scandinavian motherland that we decided to make a flavoured coffee that tastes just like it! We are taking you back to its roots with this awesome Cardamom Bun recipe so you can enjoy the full Scandi experience. It requires a bit of time and love, but it's definitely worth the effort.
Next put the flour, 75g of the sugar, the yeast, cinnamon and 1/2 tsp salt into a large bowl. Mix until all of the ingredients are combined. When the milk mixture has cooled, strain it through a sieve into the flour mixture.
Grab a wooden spoon and mix to create a soft dough. Now for the hard work. Role up your sleeves and tip the dough onto a floured work surface. Knead for 10 mins or until until the dough is smooth and stretchy. Clean the bowl and grease with oil. Pop your dough back in the bowl and give it a roll around until it's well covered in oil.
While you're waiting for your dough to rise, crack the remaining cardamom pods. Prise the pods open and collect the seeds. Crush the seeds into a powder and combine with 150g of sugar. In a bowl mix the remaining butter with all but 2 tbsp of the cardamom and sugar mix. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
Punch the dough down (you can take out any anger from the day on the poor dough) and roll into a large rectangle roughly 35 x 45cm. Have the longer edge facing you. Spread the cardamom butter over the top making sure it gets right to the edges.
Now for the complicated part. Fold the top third of the rectangle down to the middle and the bottom third up, like an envelope, so you have three layers of dough. Cut into 12 equal strips – these don't have to be super accurate but as close as you can get them. Take a strip and cut down the centre but leave it attached at the top. Repeat this step with all of the strips.
Now for the signature cardamom bun shape. Twist each strip away from the centre two or three times, then tie the dough in a knot and tuck the ends underneath the bun. Pop them on the tray when they're done.
When you have finished this part cover both trays w rise for 30 mins – 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Finally tip the remaining cardamom sugar into a pan and add 50ml of water. Bto cool swirling to dissolve the sugar. Brush the syrup over the buns a couple of times as they cool. This will make them extra yummy! |

the world after I finished college with, “Good-bye, good luck, write to us a
lot and don’t get into trouble.”
One day Miss Richfamily didn’t show up after school. I waited until it was obvious that she wasn’t
just held up. She wasn’t coming at all. She could have sent a message to me by
calling the school, but she didn’t think that making me wait for her and
stranding me at school (when I could have taken the school bus home) was worth
bothering about. I was pissed off enough
to confront her with this the next day. She didn’t apologize; she gave me some lame excuse. Nowadays, I would zing her between the eyes
with well-placed retorts designed to drive my point of view into her
brain. Back then, though, I was just a
timid, shy kid who couldn’t deal with confrontations. I gave in. I hated myself for it, but I gave in. That didn’t change anything. Sheme, she
decided she was hungry. To her credit,
food. Of course, I said it was okay with
me. What was I supposed to say, “Yes, I
y?” My mother would not have approved. We stopped at the drive-in restaurant, where
she ordered a hamburger and ate it in front of me. She didn’t even offer me a pickle. I either didn’t have any money with me or I
didn’t want to eat before dinner, so I sat and watched her eat. If I had treated her with such rudeness, and my mother had found out, I would have
been chastised up and down for having no class and embarrassing my parents, who
didn’t raise any slobs.
My father was a lively, boisterous Italian-American who had
been born in Italy and raised on Long Island, New York. He met my Mom when he was in the Army Air
Corps during World War II. He had been
sent to Washington State for some training. He and Mom met on a blind date. She took one look at him and didn’t like him. Fortunately for me and my siblings, she
changed her opinion. She quit high
school to marry him, and went to live with his family on Long Island while he
went overseas. Despite her background,
Mom took to Italian family life like a real paesana,
and Dad’s family loved her. After Dad returned
from the war, they moved into their own home, ande
surrounded by a gaggle of Italian aunts, an uncle, cousins, grandparents, family
friends and neighbors. Then my Dad
fought with his Dad and decided to
move himself, my Mom and me back to Mom’s home town, Union Gap, Washington.
Dad was gregarious, friendly, generous, tender hearted and
loud. He had a lot of friends, many of
them drinking buddies. Unfortunately, he
became an alcoholic. When he was sober,
he was a good father. When he was
drinking, he was verbally abusive. That’s
a whole other story for another time.
When we first moved back west, we lived in a tiny
one-bedroom apartment behind my grandfather’s gas station. Mom and Dad had to put me to bed in the
bedroom, so they slept in the living room. There was a kitchen, with room for a small table. Living behind a gas station had its
points. I got to hang out in the gas
station, play with the almost life-sized cardboard cutout of the Philip Morris
bellboy (until I was told to stop doing that because it was there to help Grandpa
sell cigarettes) and watch all the people who came in. They were ordinary people, but I was just a
little kid and I didn’t know that. Sometimes, too, a drunk would come out of the tavern across the street. This was always exciting, especially if the town
cops came by and the drunk was arrested. One time the drunk was a woman. She managed to cross the street and stagger along our side of it until
the cop car pulled up.
Our Police Department consisted of two cops and one
car. Our cops were more like Andy Taylor
and Barney Fife than Briscoe and Logan. Arresting drunks and giving out traffic tickets were the highlights of
their week. Of course, there was the
time a couple of strangers tried to rob Snyder’s Market and Mr. Snyder took
after them with a gun. That was so
exciting that it gave the town something to talk about for weeks afterward. I think our two cops had to get help for that
one from the Police Department in the nearest decent-sized city, Yakima. An attempted robbery where the potential
victim fought back with a firearm was a lot more complicated than giving out
Grandpa’s gas station and our apartment were located across
the main highway, isolated from most of the town. This was hard for me, since I had been used
to being surrounded by relatives, friends and neighbors. I never quite adjusted. Instead, I developed a terminal case of
shyness that lasted all through my childhood and into some of my adult
years. I never had a social life when I
was growing up. Most kids don’t make it
into the most popular clique, but I didn’t make it into ANY clique. Instead, I made friends and had fun with a
couple of the other outcasts, and was happy whenever any other kid would talk
to me. Most of the time they ignored me.
My younger sister was born after the big move, in 1950. Suddenly, I wasn’t getting the attention I was
accustomed to as an only child. I
developed a habit of acting out, which didn’t turn out to be as useful as I
One day, I decided that I was sick because I had a mosquito
bite. I refused to get out of bed,
insisting that I was dying. This went on
until Dad decided to teach me a lesson. He pulled the mattress off the bed and hung it from the clothesline
outside. He must have been pissed off as
hell, because getting a mattress out the back door of a tiny apartment, then
getting it to hang on a clothesline, isn’t easy. He managed to do it, though. I spent the rest of the day sitting in a
chair, staring at the mosquito bite. It
My family wasn’t the Cleavers or the Andersons. The Bundys and the Conners wouldn’t be
introduced to television until much, much later, so we didn’t have any
dysfunctional family role models to compare ourselves with.
My little brother was born in 1953. By this time, I was in First Grade at St.
Joseph’s Elementary School in Yakima. I
was too busy dealing with school bus rides, nuns, other kids and school
subjects to act out over a new addition to the family. I had become resigned to not being the center
of my parents’ universe, anyway.
In First Grade, I was introduced to the 1950s Catholic

en | N/A | N/A | The woody, bitter herb has long been relegated to cookies and brownies to mask the flavor while delivering on the high. You might choke some sweets down to get baked, but often, the methods that helped extract the THC in the edible make the end product pretty inedible.
To incorporate the chemicals that make you feel good from pot into food or drinks, you need to take two steps. The first step is to “decarboxylate,” which means using heat to unlock the drug’s psychoactive effects. Then, you have to infuse that weed into either fat or alcohol (unlike the caffeine in coffee or tea, it isn’t water soluble).
There are a couple ways to do this. Cirino recommends lightly roasting the pot in a 325-degree oven for six to eight minutes, or putting it in a mason jar in a pressure cooker for about 25 minutes at pressure. Using a whipped cream canister, he makes an alcohol infusion with high-proof vodka and the toasted pot, injecting it with nitrogen gas to infuse and letting it sit for about 10 minutes, then straining it after with an AeroPress coffee maker. The end result is a tincture that can be added to cocktails, coffee or applied to food.
Don't ruin your butter.
An infused oil isn’t something you want to sauté with – you’ll waste a lot and the results will be inconsistent. Use it as a last minute addition to sauces and something that you add with precision.
Given that strains vary wildly in intensity and it’s hard to know what you are getting, be sure to do some testing before throwing any parties, and keep in mind the tolerance of the people you are feeding — a regular medicinal user and a dabbler shouldn’t consume the same amounts.
Cirino uses the metaphors of drinking a cup of coffee or a cocktail for consuming cannabis, and his dosages are a whole lot less than you would find with medicinal edibles — think of a little lift to help you through an afternoon of working writing code or to relax a bit rather than full-on couchlock.
For “coffee strength,” he recommends 1 gram of pot for every 30-50 grams of solvent. Stronger “cocktail strength” (about three puffs on a joint) is 1 gram for every 20-25 grams of solvent. A typical dosage per person would be .5 milliliters of oil or tincture.
Remember, you’re going to have to digest the food before you feel an effect, so give it time. For an extended effect, try one dose and then another 90 to 120 minutes later. |

en | N/A | N/A | Now I want to upgrade. I have learnt to ride and have begun to take this unicycle off road - as can be seen in my avatar pic. It is awkward because it doesn’t have a front handle on the seat (I just grip the front), the tyre is not off-road and all-together I expect I am pushing it too far - even though I make progress and don’t fall off to much on slightly uneven ground.
My problem is I dont know what MUni specification I need - i.e. size of wheel, spokes and hub specification, crank length, the best seat for the job etc.
Will I find a really big noticeable difference between riding a more expensive MUni off-road compared to my learner model? Where could the difference show? I appreciate the tyre is a big issue - but what size, what profile, what pressure? What about the seat? I realise the seat handle is an improvement - but can the actual seat itself be designed better to sit on - owing to, say, a better shape?
Any feedback I can get would be appreciated.
Depends on the style of off-road you wish to do. If you want to do technical downhill you will need a 24" but if you intend a more XC style of off-road then a 26" or a 29" will be the way to go.
For 24" the Nimbus Muni is a great uni - reasonably priced and good quality, the Nimbus can be upgraded by ordering the Kris Holm Moment cranks at the time of purchase. Next up is the Kris Holm 24" - more expensive but has a lighter aluminium frame.
Nimbus also make a 26" version of their Muni and the same can be said for their 26" as I said for the 24".
At the 29" spot - the Kris Holm is probably the best bet.
As to crank length - with a 24" get a 150mm a this seems to be the standard and you learned with 152mm cranks. With the 26" it will be a toss up between 150mm and 165 mm.
With the 29" probably dual hole cranks - 125mm/150mm.
I must say I have read your progress links and I am truly impressed at how quickly you have attained the skills you have so far!
+1 on that, this guy know’s his stuff.
I think Scoope has covered it well.
I think the distance you are planning and how extreme you want to go will decide what you should go for as much as price.
The Nimbus Munis are great unicycles to get started on for off road. They all have Magura brake mounts now, and have ISIS cranks, so you can upgrade now or later when you have some spare cash.
I have a Kris Holm 24", and a Kris Holm 29", and they are great. The Kris Holm unicycles are expensive, but they are really nice. The 2007 models are very good value but the 24" ones seem to be finished now.
If you decide to go for a 29" Kris Holm, I would recommend getting the dual hole cranks. I used mine in the summer for a duathlon, riding 18 miles on the road with a road tyre, and the pedals in the 125mm setting, then fitted the off road tyre and put the pedals back to the 150mm setting for going off road again after the event. If I could only have one, I would go for the 29", as it is a bit more versitile.
Thanks guys for the feedback. It’s given me something to work on.
I’m selling my Qu ax 24" MUni if your intersted.
Its a bit heavy but the chances of it breaking are very low.
It costs £223 new on unicycle.com (i think:o) and i want about £140 for it.
One small issue, it doesnt have a seat (i snapped it, lol) but i would recommend getting a Kris holm fusion freeride saddle.
If you just want parts, i know marcus collings, (sparky marky) is intersted in the frame, seatpost and clamp. so if you would just like the wheel i am happy to negotiate with you and Marcus.
The Nimbus’ are a great value. If you get one make sure it’s a '09. According to UDC a 2.3" WTB Stout will fit the 29er, I don’t know about the 2.4" Racing Ralph. There’s some debate as to if the frame can be modified to fit a geared hub (I don’t see why not since some of the earlier '07 KH’s needed it to fit that hub).
A couple of pluses of the KH is it has a 5 mm wider rim, it’s lighter, and can definitely be upgraded to a geared hub. The sizes are: 19, 24, 29 & 36", no 26" (unless you put your rim in a 29" frame).
The wider KH rim is virtually the same weight as the Nimbus’ (a rebranded '05 KH), is a bit less likely to pinch flat, or fold over on large side hops/landings. Also it gives a flatter profile giving slightly more grip straight up/downhill, and a bit more stable loose sand or mud.
On my Muni, 38 mm rim, a 3" Duro has a rounder profile than the stock tire (it’d be flatter w/ a wider rim), 2.6" Kenda Kinnetics. W/ my rim the Duro’s more twitchy in loose dirt/mud, is harder to get it to run straight, not S’s, and turns differently at mod-high speeds (lean instead of pivot). For now I don’t feel the added volume is worth it for me. I very briefly rode a '07 KH w/ a 3" Duro and noticed the same things but way less, so much so that it may be insignificant compared to the issues I have w/ my rim.
I bought the Nimbus 29" Uni and upgraded it with 150mm KH cranks and a WTB Stout tire. Works great for the trails we have here in Northeast Texas. Mostly flat with short ups and downs. With the 150mm cranks I can stand up and muscle my way up some pretty steep inclines.
Point is, Nimus makes really nice affordable unicycles. The basic Nimbus uni’s can be upgraded to make them trail worthy. |

en | N/A | N/A | Abstract: A high-throughput experimental approach is presented to extract the anisotropic interdiffusion coefficient by combining information over the composition profiles obtained by the electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and the grain orientation spectrum by the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) on polycrystalline diffusion couples. Following the forward-simulation scheme, the interdiffusion coefficients in grains with diverse orientation are obtained and subsequently used to determine the anisotropic interdiffusion coefficients perpendicular () and parallel () to the c axis of the hcp Mg lattice in a Mg–Al alloy as a function of the Al solute content at 673 K and 723 K, respectively. It was found that the interdiffusion coefficients generally increased with the Al content and the rotation angle with respect to the c axis with a valley point around at 723 K. And it was noticed that diffusion along the basal plane was always faster than along the c axis. A comprehensive explicit expression of the interdiffusion coefficients was provided as a function of Al content, grain orientation and temperature. The anisotropic impurity diffusion coefficients of Al in hcp Mg derived by the extrapolation of the results in this paper in the literature. |

Daughter's tribute to 'song and dance man' from Garston
A much-loved great grandfather from Garston, who has died aged 80, was a talented “song and dance man” who had a passion for animation.
Ken Clark, from Westlea Avenue, Garston, grew up in Watford and spent most of his career working at Odhams, the printing company.
However,Ken passed away on December 5, 2009, at the Peace Hospice.
Family and friends paid tribute to him at a service at West Herts Crematorium on Monday, December 14.
Ken was born in Watford on December 24, 1924, and grew up in the town with his brother Ron and three sisters, Doreen (who now lives in Australia), Jean and Angela.
He went to Central Primary School but left formal education when he was 14.
Ken was working for an insurance company in London when war broke out, and he was called up to serve in the Royal Air Force. However, he never saw active service.
He would eventually spend his career working at Odhams, after completing an apprenticeship at the printers.
One day in 1951 while out on their motorbikes, Ken and his friends Bob Loader and Derek Sanders visited Welwyn Garden City and bumped into Jean Griffiths and her friends Ann and June.
Not only did Ken and Jean become a couple and celebrate their marriage in 1953, but their friends also paired up and married.
Ann and Derek now live in Canada, while Bob and June moved to Australia.
Ken and Jean were married for 56 years until his death and lived together in Westlea Avenue for the past 52 years.
r four children - Helen, Ian, Tracey and Lee.
They also have six grandchildren – Sarah, Craig, Daisy, James, Joshua and Jonathan – and two great grandchildren, Faith and Brooke.
Ken was well known as a “song and dance man”. He loved tap dancing and for many decades appeared on stage in numerous productions with the Cassio and Watford Operatic Societies.
He also worked voluntary for the Talking Newspaper for the Blind and would write and record stories for the publication.
However, his true “labour of love” was animation. As an animator, Ken was a member of the Grasshopper Group, which met for 35 years up to the mid-1950s. He helped to produce a film called Battle of Wangapore,.
He also spent many years compiling a history of British animation, which he had hoped to publish shortly before his death.
Ken's daughter Tracey described her father as a “the sort of dad everybody would have loved”.
She said: “He was an extremely multi-talented person. He was a writer, researcher and animator. He was heavily involved in the operatic societies in Watford. Whatever was going on he was a part of it.
“For the past 50 years he's been researching the history of British animated film. He was on the verge of finding a publisher when he died. That was his lifelong love.
“He was a fantastic man; a great family man. He loved all his kids. He was the sort of dad everybody would have loved. As children we were so lucky to have him. He was so creative and artistic. He would turn his hand to anything.
“As a researcher he saw the importance of writing things down and we're uncovering all sorts of things he wrote down.
“But we will remember him as a song and dance man. If we can get his book published it would be fantastic because it was his life. If we can finish it for him, it would be the best tribute we can make.
“In his later years it was his book that took up most of his time and being a dad and granddad.
“People I have been contacting about his death have all said what a lovely man he was. How kind and generous and unassuming he was and generous-spirited person.”
A public service to remember Ken will take place at 7.30pm on Thursday, January 28, at the Clarendon Muse, in Rickmansworth Road, Watford.
The evening will be led by One Voice Watford Community Choir, which counted Ken among their members and who will perform a number of songs. |

Yes, it is only fair that the Republican contender for the White House also release his tax returns as President Obama has. Obama has done nothing in office to give the voters of this country any doubts that he is honest, sincere and has nothing to hide. On the other hand, Mitt Romney is becoming more and more suspecious every day. Yes, it is true that Mitt Romney did release his 2010 tax returns, but what about 2011 and why is he filing for a tax extension. More than likely, Romney will eventually submit his 2011 tax returns for everyone to see. just the fact that he refuses to do what President Obama is willing to do and has done, along with a simple request from the President of the United States for Romney to provide his tax returns is very suspeciouse. |
