Gleeson Exhibit Opens in Pasadena
I took some very bad photos of some very nice artwork, some of which you might recognize. He’s done covers for books by Richard Matheson, Arthur C. Clarke, and many pulps; Fantastic Stories, Science Fiction Book Club (Eye of the Cat, in the poster above) Galaxy Magazine, (Jabberwock 3000), and Amazing (Looking Glass).
Tony Gleeson. Jabberwock 3000. (Galaxy)
Tony Gleeson. I Am Legend, cover
If you happen to find yourself in Pasadena, visit the bookshop gallery. The exhibit is on now thru October 3 during the bookshop’s normal operating hours.

See Gleeson’s “Fantastic!!!” Art Exhibit
As Gleeson says in the poster, “Many of these pieces haven’t been seen in years and there may not be another opportunity to see them again!”
Gleesonpro art sale in September, an illustration that was published in the December 1974 issue of Amazing Stories. Coincidentally, two readers of this blog had work in that issue, author Gregory Benford and artist Dan Steffan. (George R.R. Martin also had a novelette, which he probably wrote between chess tournaments…)

Q: Database fuzzy search concept I thought about this, and have been trying to come up with solutions on how to fuzzy search a database, if for say example a user types a spelling mistake. Any glaring problems with the logic behind this? Will it work and has it been done before?
Our table we wish to search:
**tblArticles**
Body - Soundex_Body - CharacterCoded_Body
So we store the raw text body for physical display. The other 2 columns are used for searches which are precomputed the following way:
So someone might enter 'dinosore', and the article body reads 'dinosaur' these both evaluate to B26. We then run a LIKE on the soundex value of search term.
Given a character mapping that maps chars to prime numbers, IE:
hello = 2*3*5*5*7 = 1050
hell = 2*3*5*5 = 150
cello = 13*3*5*5*7 = 6825
If a user meant to type 'hello' but they switched two or more characters around for example 'hlelo', they would evaluate to the same number. Split raw body into words, prime encode every word and store in database giving you a field that looks like:
330 6825 330 1050... etc
*Typos protected against
*Phonetic incorrect spellings protected against
*More non native english speaking friendly
Comments and thoughts? A sort of multilayered search. You can of course weight return values to make it even better (IE a literal text body match is worth more), but is this a good solution for spelling errors and non native english speakers doing searches?
A: There are a number of other search algorithms. Smith-Waterman is one of the better ones for human text, while BLAST is (so far) the best for searching DNA sequences. When you are presented text with various spelling errors such as hlep instead of help, then you are looking for the minimum edit distance.
http://staffwww.dcs.shef.ac.uk/people/S.Chapman/simmetrics.html
Soundex was developed because the primary differences between regional speech variations was almost exclusively in the vowels - which is why it tosses vowels out. It isn't good at coping with transposed letters.
... but projects such as Xapian and Solr handle much of this for you.
If you do want to build your own word search term parsing / searching engine I would suggest putting the tokens or terms you generate into an existing database that is designed to perform language search.
A: I did something like that a while back for addresses that would check how many change string, and return a numeric value between 0 and 1 as to how closely the two matched.
Soundex will not match "Dick==Richard" "Kit==Christopher" or "Ms.==Mrs."

FX Options or Forex Options are derivative financial instruments. With an FX Option, one party (the option holder) gains the contractual right to buy or sell a fixed amount of currency at a specific rate on a predetermined future date. Upon contract formation, the holder (buyer) has to pay a fee to the seller for acquiring the option. This fee is called the Premium.
The calculation of the time value is far more complex. The reason is that many parameters influence the time value. The most important parameters are the volatility of the underlying currencies and the time left until the expiration. A higher FX market volatility increases the price of the Forex Option because there is an increased chance for profitable movements. Even the difference in the interest rates between the two currencies has to be addressed when calculating the time value. Such interest rate differentials which are embedded in currency trades are called FX swap rates.
The most common statistical method for European FX Option pricing follows the Garman-Kohlhagen Model which calculates a log-normal process. It is a modification of the well-known Black-Scholes Model for standard option pricing and takes the two risk free interest rates of a currency pair into account.
The FX Options market is the option market with the highest depth and liquidity in the World. Market participants can use different strategies for limiting risks and increasing profits.
If the FX rate moves against our own position in the FX spot market, we will have a loss. By acquiring a Forex Option, we can remove the risks of unpredictable losses; our loss will always be limited to the Premium then.
There are different option styles which you can classify. Forex Options may differ in the dates on which they may be exercised. European FX Options may only be exercised on the expiration date and not earlier. American FX Options are more flexible. They may be exercised at any time until their expiry dates. Both American and European options belong to the class of Vanilla Options. Vanilla Options include all options for which the payoff is calculated similarly. The second class is called Exotic Options. Their price calculation is often very challenging and less transparent because they are traded OTC. An example are Binary FX Options. To protect consumers, they are forbidden in many countries.
You need a broker which offers FX Option trading. Some brokers offer direct market access to the future and options exchanges such as the CBOE or EUREX. Others offer their own OTC contracts. Additionally, the minimum deposit and fees can be different.

It turns out, and this is no surprise to anyone with an above-room-temperature IQ, that Mitt Romney is insincere in his repudiation of Missouri Republican Todd Akin. Moreover, it turns out that the Republican Party as a whole, which has largely banded together to oust the man who says “legitimate” rape victims don’t get pregnant, isn’t sincere in its repudiation, either.
There is the matter of legislation, which as Sarah Jones pointed out here yesterday, tends to argue against their sincerity.But that’s not all. Yesterday developed into a sort of ” perfect storm” for Republican denials as several factors coalesced to clearly reveal them for the liars and hypocrites they are.
And they didn’t even have to think about it: “The party’s official stance on abortion was approved after just a few minutes of discussion. The language in the platform must be voted on before the full Republican Convention next week, though Republicans say it is all but certain to pass.” It is a platform this morning’s New York Times editorial in an understatement calls “extremist” and “mean-spirited and intolerant” so you can be sure it will pass.
What was that Mitt Romney was saying about Todd Akin’s anti-abortion stance where rape is concerned?
Even if there was a constitutional ban on abortion for any reason whatsoever?
Romney’s campaign can claim that “It’s not at all uncommon to have slight differences between the platform and the nominee” but it turns out, reports the LA Times, that the “Doctor behind Todd Akin’s rape theory was a Romney surrogate in 2007,” leading to questions as to just how much Romney does disagree with Akin, if at all.
[A]rchives from Romney’s previous presidential bid show that the Massachusetts Republican has historically supported the person who is the source of Akin’s theory, Dr. Jack C. Willke, the father of the antiabortion movement.
Wilke himself is a physician and as the Times goes on to say, “” He has written a book on the subject and maintains a website, abortionfacts.com, dedicated to propagating his lies.
Romney knew all this when he bragged about Wllke’s endorsement in 2007.
So the GOP as a whole feels pretty much the way Akin feels and has for some time, as their legislation proves, but Akin went and opened his mouth at a sensitive time and got busted for it despite Fox News’ best efforts to hush it up, at which point they all piled onto Akin, condemning him for advertising the fact that they are all insensitive louts; Romney, already on shaky ground with voters, is not least among them and even the Akin-loving Ryan joins in. But then the GOP, unable to stop the tidal wave of hatred they set in motion and broiling up now from below, shoots itself in the foot with its platform and Romney gets busted for lying about how he really feels about rape victims.
It’s as if they all collectively shook their Etch A Sketches and hoped for the best (clicking heels together is so New Deal-ish, after all).
But the best isn’t going to happen.
Is it any wonder then that Tropical Storm Isaac is “on track to hit Florida next week, when Republicans gather in Tampa”?
But if it did, if a category 1 hurricane put the convention center under 20 feet of water, would the Republican Party then admit to the possibility that God is just an teensy weensy bit pissed at them?
and that she and her son deserve better. So who will she vote for? The people who will take away HER rights as a female, and start another war, and tax her more. There is no reasoning with these people.
Goes to show you where my head is. Thanx for the tiip on Tropical Storm Isaac.
The GOP convention in Tampa could be hit by a hurricane.
Congressman Todd Akin’s GOP fan club broke up today. The guy died.
Hurricane Akin may hit Tampa during the RNC next week; or it could change course.
The GOP elite, the Tampa fathers, and the commercial vendors ae all praying to be saved from Akin’s wrath.
Unfortunately, the dominant GOP evangelicals are praying to the Old Testament God, a vengeful diety that brooks no opposition; a diety that makes Seinfeld’s soup nazi resemble Mother Theresa.
For God’s sake, don’t pray for such a storm!!! We don’t live very far from Tampa, and such a storm would likely make us homeless and destroy any chance of having a future!
Also, they will just say “The DEVIL is trying to prevent us from obeying God!!!” and they would become more vicious and militant. That’s the way these people think. Hardship doesn’t deter them… you have to stop them in their tracks.
The only thing I know that comes close to doing that is embarrassment, and as long as the media refuses to be truthful, that’s not going to happen. Oh, and the courts have been successful so far at stopping them, as long as the judges obey the law and aren’t driven by religious or conservative ideology.
.. and the taj mahal he has built for his hoped for Senate majority caucus.
Mike Huckabee, Hannity and Coulter have traveled directly into the eye of the hurricane, which originally formed in Missouri. Only Huck can explain how a hurricane could take off in Missouri. Huck can explain almost everything.
Only the delicate flower, the knowledgeable ABC meteorologist Ginger Zee really knows.
This feeble attempt at humor is not as good as Andy Borowitz’s blog yesterday, which has Akin’s letter of apology.
God speaks, but they don’t hear her.
Romney/Ryan and repubs are batshit mad.
They want – no controls on banks.
No controls on corporate greed.
As i read these articles concerning the extremist viewpoints i am so hopefull, that this is what it will take for all women to wake up and vote the ‘american taliban’ out of office and into obscurity, Go women and show what what happens when you mess with the ‘voters’ that outnumber the male voters.
Just read on DU, people are still talking about Mitt’s aborted fetus company, they seem to think that he is still making big money on it and that it is one reason for his fear of showing his tax returns.

the tens of thousands of dollars in terms of value, and I think that’s way more than what she could have gotten them to pay out in cash for a product placement at that time. So bartering gets a bad rap. Bartering is smart and shouldn’t be looked down upon, IMO.
I mean, sometimes I get these PR invites and I do get a little confused because I don’t really understand why I’m supposed to be excited about going, because I’m not being paid and they’re giving me a flip camera. Now I understand THAT. Because I would much rather just get paid. Like if they want me to write about something or whatever then I’d need to be paid for my time and even then I don’t know if I would do it, but that’s a whole separate issue. I’ve never understood looking down on bartering. That is a part of legitimate businesses everywhere.
Okay I just saw your tweet about no comments on your rant and I have to apologize cause I was going to comment but I had a three year old with constipation, which is actually a perfect segue to your post.
Did you know Elvis dies of extreme constipation? So even “The Greats” can fall hard if they don’t keep up with the hard work.
It does fit, given you help give the poop on mommyblogging. And we do like to talk poop.
Thanks for telling the truth, Anna.
Sounds like basic brand marketing to me. Know as much as you can about your 300,000 monthly viewers and then tell advertisers about them. Aggregated information, of course. Then negotiate your butt off and expect it to take awhile. Thanks for sharing this information Anna!
Bravo. You hit the nail on the head here.

I discovered that I needed to become excited about a few things to model the modern truth:
So far I have taught myself (and a few sons) how to knit and now how to style long hair.
Model Learning:
Find something to be excited about, something challenging… and then go find some YouTube videos, books, magazines, or a tutor and learn.
- Learn a new skill for the challenge and joy of it.
- Share your enthusiasm with your kids.
- Don’t be afraid to fail, but never quit!
What are you excited to learn about? Start today! </s> Reflection
I enjoyed learning about the sizes of the Angles
I found it interesting because I didn't know much about it but after the lesson I had with the teacher I know much more.

emary's Baby, AKA POTUS Mysterious, is the Antichrist.
There is only one person that fits the prophetic bill, to sign the false peace and also be in charge of the kind of force described in the Bible, and only one country that also represents a global monitary system of debt that marks the entire global market that has a leader that is declaring and claiming power over the people through their own criminal order. Rosemary's Baby is the one in office, in such a State, when the new age for the occult masonic meatheads begins in 2012, and the goal of their pathetic new world order has it's call in Rome, Israel and ultimately with the Muslims in reguard to Jerusalem, which has been on the U.N. agenda. This is all part of the contrived effort for peace, timed with the globalized market effort we see at hand. This fits exectly with what is defined in prophecy. We have all the conditions in the Middle East, all the chatter, the market, and certainly the Earth and the environment have been speaking as loud as the signs in space. When you throw mans new technical ability to establish a new order of intelligence above human ablity the picture is crytal clear. Time is shorter than people not paying attention would imagine.
The chance that this nutball (any American President now in office) is not the host described in prophecy, and also described by the occult masons and pagan prophecies, with everything coming together all at the same time, well, it can't be just ironic coincidence. The chance factor is about Fed Zero. Lol. This multi trillion black hole Rosemary's Baby Care represents is just another confirmation of the prophetic strong delusion given to the leaders of nations, because they do not love the truth. They prove that point by not reading the laws they pass in the U.S. and EU etc... The leaders are corrupt and in contempt of life, freedom, liberty and justice for all, and the shadow bankers and corporations paid to Greece (lol) the political system to the point of no return for labor.
Time is about up, the number of the beat is in, and we are right now counting it every day, while dipshits watch Dancing With The Stars after they get done working for a system that continues to count against them. Lol.
Obama is not, repeat NOT, the Anti-Christ.
The AntiChrist would at least APPEAR to be competent.
...do not be deceived by the Host of the Fallen, the Host is but the unsealed and corrupted temple for contempt.
Is not temple for contemp a contretemps?
With all the hopey changey stuff more likely the false prophet.
Time is about up, the number of the beat is in

Fascist... from a long line of fascist US presidents. He may project something else, but what he does speaks so loudly...

Absolutely. Greenie from me.
Still, factoring in reality, Barry is worth a vote, no?
yOU ARE OF SOUND MIND vIC! ! OOPS Cap lock! Silly me?

I can't do better 'cuz you have the sweetest name already.
Think about what ZH means when you and I team up.
I'll discuss " anything" with you VIC,
You're smarter than that krid.
Is he? 'Cuz I think intelligence is a bit overrated.
For sure, Harbanger, you and krid are smart. But what did that get you? Seeing this?
Nice Vid. It explains our modern culture and the marketeers that forged it. Intelligence is often overrated, all it ever did for me was hang some shingles on my wall. Ultimately, it was wisdom that made me happy and wealthy. I thank my grandfather for that. While living with him on his farm, he showed me the nature of life through example. He also had me read a new chapter of proverbs every day for 2 years when I was 15. I thought he was nuts. What he was teaching didn't click till I was 35. Wisdom is timeless.
Because you commented on ZH tonight, I see you as being in 1% in terms of intelligence.
But since you commented, you probably aren't in the 1% in terms of income.
So do we try and save these people or fuk them over? That is the great question as I see it.
""
All "these people" will get fkd over soon, trust me. It's a universal law. Every so often I remind my chick that she's just a victim of circumstance. She has no idea wtf I'm talking about. All that matters to her is she feels happy, loved and safe.
up voted because it warms my heart to see someone take such good care of their egg layers.
Indeed Harbanger you're Granpappy was wise. Reading a chapter of Proverbs a day is sound advice whatever ones religious denomination.
It's not lying if the president does it.
....and Central Bankers...
Seems like a little bit more than a rounding error.
Gods of darkness, did no one actually bother to put this together before? Obamacare, the unwrapped dung that keeps on taking...... SCOTUS had better strike this nonsense down, or who will pay their salaries? The US taxpayer? (falls on floor, collapsing in laughter) OHHH, ouch, that hurt! But not as bad as Obamacare will.
I'm surprised Obama hasn't named a czar to oversee the actions of the supreme court by now. You know, for national security purposes.
Could Ruth Bader Ginsberg be a terrorist? Anything is possible.
I was under the impression that one had to be human in order to be a terrorist.
She is living proof of the alien lizard theory.
Another fucking conspiracy theory confirmed.
[quote]] </s> This is a fun question! I have no idea about the San Fran area but in New England we had just dug ourselves out of the savings and loan problems and things were really ramping up. The average home today is selling at aprox. 25% less than it was at it's highest value in 05. So the value of this home would have been about 840,000 in 05. Then from 96-05 we experienced about a 8-9% appreciation rate on average per year. So in the Northeast I would say that home would have sold for about $275,000 -$325,000. This is only a fun guess. If you need to be more accurate your city tax records should show you your assesment at that time.
Good question, Zillow only goes back ten years. Dated sales data is available from appraisers, you can look for one here...

Horror stories abound of what can happen to both small and larger estate holdings when their owners fail to take the time to make a will, plan for the succession of their business holdings, or take advantage of the protection offered by insurance and other financial products.
People who fail to take these steps may have their assets distributed in ways they do not want, to people they would not have wanted to have receive them.
Larger portions of the estate than necessary may be paid in taxes.
Wills that have not been updated in recent years may include beneficiaries who are no longer living, executors who no longer reside in Alberta, or are otherwise unavailable to administer your estate. They may not take recent changes to the law into consideration.
If you die without any surviving relatives however remotely related, your assets will go to the government.
Outdated insurance policies can be less effective in taking care of families after death than newer products.

Follow along with the small community of South Point as they struggle to survive against the seemingly endless waves of disasters and setbacks. The Faithful are besieged by evil on all sides. The ongoing mysterious disapperances of their youth and the prosecution of their prominent pastor for unbelievable crimes are simply too much to bear. The community collapses in the face of such horrendous events and yet evil doesn't rest and is never satisfied, never.
A few years. A few months. A few weeks. Simple multiple choice answers to a complicated question. How long would it take to ruin a man, his family, his church, and his community? Well if you ask Sheriff Marcus Wheeler he would tell you he holds the world record of accomplishing all four objectives in just a few days. In reality, most of it was accomplished in under eighteen hours.
Was he proud of that record? Absolutely. Bo refused to do what he was told so the sheriff made good on his promise and he did it all on the same day as Bo failed him.
It was a slam dunk case. He sent that little preacher man away for eight long years and also made him the town hero in the process. It also destroyed the preacher's church and those irritating followers of his too. Icing on the cake. Devils food no doubt. Marcus couldn't help himself, he just had to laugh.
The Dark Rose was an evil being of immense power. She had controlled her territory unchallenged for decades. Her latest problem, she was bored. Gressil, her favorite servant recognized her need and after providing her with his detailed report he suggested a distraction for his Mistress.
"MIstress, it seems there was an insignificant group of survivors left over from a decade old war between rival drug lords. The young women and older girls to be delivered into slavery of one kind or another. The children and the old women were spared, left behind in the burning rubble to wallow in their misery."
"The small group of survivors, five older women, five now teenage boys, and a feeble priest have carved out a meager existence in the remains of the abandoned Spanish monastery."
The Dark Rose's curiosity was piqued at the mention of the five teenage boys. It had been a long time since she had recruited and trained human warriors for her own amusement.
The continuing story of evil's conquest of the small community of South Point and the local church. The revenge of La Piqueta (The Pick) and La Rosa Oscura (The Dark Rose) and their evil seed. The sinister organization known as Copper Canyon Casino redoubles their efforts to secure much needed land for their expansion plans. They desire a south Texas spread, The Big Bea's ranch, and will stop at nothing to obtain it.
The Wanderer, along with The Faithful, The Twelve, Rescue Teams Alpha and Beta, desperately need time to heal and recover from their physical, emotional, and spiritual encounters with Levanto and La Piqueta's cartels. Evil never rests or sleeps and therefore time is a luxury they do not have. Evil lurks everywhere they look and unimaginable setbacks along with life threatening situations are constantly testing the strength of their faith up to and beyond the breaking point.

’ld let you know some advantages and disadvantages of each. Although it’s certainly not a comprehensive list it does include some of the more popular flooring choices in Ann Arbor Michigan that your flooring contractor can install for you.
Most laminate flooring is not water proof and can’t be used in bathroom, kitchens, or rooms that have high humidity or likely to have water on the flooring.
This type of flooring can be extremely heavy and you may need to add structural support for the flooring in the home.

Surely, these are rectangular pieces of thin cardboard or plastic used for playing card games. Even kids are familiar with the suits, the pictures and the “pips” on the cards’ faces. But not everybody seem to know that playing cards have a very long and exciting history, that together with the other games the card games came to Europe from the East, nearly this way : China -> India -> Persia -> Europe. The cards were gradually spreading throughout many cultures and were gaining different forms and configurations. The Chinese and the Japanese used to have flat tablets made of wood, bamboo or ivory; the Indians used to have round cards; and in the Middle Aged Japan, there was a card game where the players used mussel shells with the various pictures on them instead of cards.
The most popular decks include 36 or 54 cards, four suits, and each suit ranks six or two through the

End of the miniLegends?

I can't believe that Al has had to take his site down!What a loss for education!
To be honest, I think most of the hysteria in the debate actually comes from those who haven't done any investigation or research into how things such as blogs and wikis work — let alone work in education. This really places them in a difficult position, because they aren'ttopic. With a little education I'm sure that parents and administrators would see the value in teaching our kids about good online citizenship and safe internet behaviour, rather than disabling (and there's a lot to that word …) ICT use in education, as has happened to Al. Perhaps to get around it, Al could make his blog private?
Regarding your child's photo, name and school being published – do you also prevent this in media outlets such as newspapers?

The Andrew Marr show discusses my research piece for Whotargets.me
We are being used a lab rats on Facebook, see my work for Whotargets.me that led to an Observer/Guardian piece on the Marr show. Read the full story here or below.
The three main political parties in England and Wales are using Facebook audiences “as lab rats in a giant experiment”, according to the first detailed analysis of online advertising during a UK election.
Campaign group Who Targets Me?, which was established to monitor online political ads, has been examining how parties used Facebook before the election was called and in the first week of the campaign. It has found all three parties trialling subtly different messages, images and even colours as they seek to learn what resonates with voters.
“‘untransparent’, highly targeted Facebook ads,” said Sam Jeffers, the co-founder of Who Targets Me? “.”
From 27 October to 2 November, the Liberal Democrats spent £25,502 on Facebook ads. Of this, £2,985 went on sending 15 different Jo Swinson ads to a total of 128,000 people. They showed the Lib Dem leader in a number of poses, from smiley and determined to thoughtful. All the posts featured the same message – “Liberal Democrats have led the fight to stop Brexit for over 3 years. We’re not giving up and neither should you” – with a link to the party’s website. Analysis shows the 15 ads were whittled down to five based on user response.
Similar analysis of Labour’s campaign shows the party experimenting with a number of messages. One set used pictures of Swinson and Johnson accompanied by variations of the message that “neither will protect our NHS from Donald Trump”.
The party also prepared and briefly sent out a “Let the people decide” message, referring to a second referendum, and has run several versions of ads attacking tuition fees and universal credit.
The Tory party has used a number of messages claiming that politicians like Jeremy Corbyn are not respecting the result of the Brexit vote” in a bid to present the election as “people versus parliament”. It has trialled a series of ads depicting Corbyn stuffing Remain votes into a ballot box while discarded Leave votes lie all around.
Parties will get better at using these tools, so we need regulation nowSam Jeffers, co-founder, Who Targets Me?
Who Targets Me?, which is fundons and has partnerships with universities across Europe and the US, said the ads mainly targeted “Workington man” – the archetypal voter parties must attract. Its analysis shows that four of the images of Corbyn and the ballot box generated more money, which suggests the party has been honing its campaign in response to online feedback.
The researcher, Tristan Hotham, said that political parties had until now lagged behind marketing agencies in their use of ‘“A/B” testing – comparing two or more versions of an ad to determine which one performs better.
The process might appear benign, he warned, but it can have negative consequences. “This allows you to find the most effective negative message about a politician and then send it explicitly to whomever it will reverberate with the most,” he said. “It is hypercharging negative politics.”
The Tory party has been investing the most in this. In August it spent £28,000, compared with Labour’s £19,000. It spent £67,000 last month and £48,000 in November so far.

The words "clean" and "green" are often used to describe alternative energy. What are the main sources of alternative energy and how "green" are they?JR: Typically, official uses of the term - such as qualification for governmental incentives - exclude fossil fuels and nuclear energy, whose undesired consequences are climate change and difficulties of radioactive waste disposal. Gg, such as geothermal, wind and solar power. have lower carbon emissions and create less pollution, which also describes clean-burning natural gas. Which of these alternative energy sources holds the most potential for Oklahoma?JR: Oklahoma's wind power is legendary, and its deep reserves of abundant natural gas also provides Oklahoma a great combined opportunity. National wind studies suggest that Oklahoma is home to some of the most consistent, reliable wind power of anywhere in the country and that our state may ultimately provide as much as 9% of all of America's wind power. Our similar blessings in natural gas give us a great advantage because natural gas is a necessary partner to wind power generation, for those days and times when the wind doesn't blow enough. How likely is it that gas will overtake oil as the world's top fuel choice by 2025; and what does that mean for Oklahoma?JR: Most of Oklahoma's energy leaders recognize that "peak oil" has occurred in America - around the 1970s - and perhaps has also occurred in the world, as a whole. "Peak oil"at reality, coupled with recent amazing discoveries of abundant, American natural gas, has Oklahoma well-positioned for a future involving greater use of natural gas. Further, since natural gas is a low-carbon fuel, it is also more attractive in a world where carbon costs add expense to coal and oil as a fuel source. gaining popularity, especially in Western Europe. Why is the United States slow to embrace it?JR: Americans have provided the world with the greatest in innovations and industry throughout our history. Only recently have commodity prices and world threats risen to the level to capture our country's attention (and political will) to solve this "energy crisis." Europe has led the way with energy diversification - like wind, solar and biomass - out of need, as they confronted high energy prices decades before America. Even countries like Brazil have been pioneers to seek new energy opportunities like compressed natural gas to fuel their cars and trucks. America is now engaged and will soon lead the world in these issues. What can our state do to encourage its energy companies to lead the nation in developing these new, environmentally friendly energy sources?JR: Bold action and big thinkers have built Oklahoma's energy sector into a leader for America. Today, it is estimated that Oklahoma provides significant amounts of America's domestic energy production: 4% for oil and 10% for natural gas. We can be that leader in all new forms as well: wind, solar, biomass, cellulosic technologies, CNG mass transportation and beyond, if we dare to prepare our state. That will involve a Legislature that incentives investments for exploration, production, transmission, smart building codes for commercial and home construction, as well as a genuine openness and intellectual curiosity for what potentials lay ahead. We can't look back; we must look forward and dare to prepare for the next Oklahoma energy century. What effect will the economic crisis have on emerging alternative energy companies?

I was just thinking about how much money we spend with acne products and how much time and effort we devote to clearing our faces (or in most cases, keeping them clear). My face has been clear for a month, I guess, but I spend so much time on my regimen that it just isn't worth it. But most important is the time I spend thinking about my acne. Thinking about treatments, regimens, products, etc....
I have started the regimen for a week now and since the beginning I have been using a lot of benzoyl peroxide. Because of that, my skin is worse than it should be: very red, very itchy, very sensitive, and peeling. I was wondering if I could stop doing the Regimen for a few days until my sking goes back to normal, and then start doing it again but with a lot less benzoyl peroxide. Or is all that normal and I should continue?Wel, I don't think it's normal...

yl-BSA (MBSA) was prepared as stated by Butler et al. (56). Protein and cholesterol content as well as electrophoretic mobility of nLDL and modified LDL preparations were measured. Endotoxin levels were determined using the gel-clot method (Charles River Endosafe) and were detected to be <0.2 ng/mg for all (lipo)protein preparations used. Anti-SR-A mAb was prepared according to Fraser et al. (57). SM4g extraction from rat testes was done as indicated by Fujimoto et al. (1).
For the ex vivo assay, murine peritoneal macrophagesseeded (1 x 106 per well) in 24-well tissue culture plates before coincubation with 5 x 106 apoptotic or viable cells at 37°C. In experiments with different apoptotic cell ratios, 5 x 106 and 10 x 106 of late apoptotic C26 cells were incubated with the indicated number of macrophages. After 60 min, noningested C26 or Renca cells were washed off, macrophages were detached using Accutase and were resuspended in cold PBS for further analysis. In receptor-blocking experiments, before incubation with apoptotic C26 cells, macrophages were incubated with OxLDL, AcLDL, nLDL, BSA, MBSA, soluble PS (all 100 µg/ml), anti-SR-A mAb (2F8; 1 µg/1 x 106 cells/100 µl), or vehicle for 30 min at the standard cell culture conditions (58, 59, 60). For the in vivo assay, apoptotic C26 cells were resuspended at a concentration of 5 x 106 per ml in serum-containing RPMI 1640 (37°C) and injected i.p. in a volume of 3 ml. Macrophages were harvested 1 h after injection, as described above. In both assays, macrophage Fc receptors were blocked with specific mAb, washed, incubated with anti-mouse CD11b PE acD11b positive cells were considered as macrophages, gated, and analyzed for the intensity of DiO fluorescence as a parameter of phagocytosis (47, 48, 49, 50, 51). The FACS phagocytosis index was calculated by dividing mean relative DiO fluorescence intensities of macrophages and apoptotic bodies from the same experiment.
Confocal, electron, and video microscopy phagocytosis assays
Macrophages were incubated on cover slips in 6-well culture plates overnight. For confocal and video microscopy experiments, DiO or SYTOX green-labeled apoptotic C26 cells were added, respectively. In the confocal microscopy assay, macrophages were washed and subjected to fluorescent staining to actin (Alexa 546 phalloidin) and nucleus (DRAQ5) after 1 h of coincubation. Image acquisition and analysis was done using a Leica TCS-SL microscope and Leica confocal software (v. 2.61). For the video microscopy experiment, cover slips with macrophages and apoptotic C26 cells were positioned in an imaging chamber with standard medium and cell culture conditions (serum-containing RPMI 1640, 37°C, 5% CO2) for 2 h. Movies were acquired on a Zeiss Axiovert 200M microscope by AxioCam camera using AxioVision Rel4.5 software (Zeiss). For the electron microscopy experiment, macrophages were fixed in Karnovsky solution and embedded in araldite (61). In total, 80 macrophages were analyzed.
To induce a homogeneous and defined stage of apoptosis,cycloheximide (a protein translation inhibitor) were used at concentrations of 1 µM and 10 µg/ml, respectively, for different time periods. Late apoptosis in C26 and Renca cells was verified by Annexin V/PI flow cytometry assay and confirmed by quantitative ultrastructural analysis of apoptotic cells by electron microscopy. Consistent results were obtained at time points of 24 h (staurosporine) and 16 h (cycloheximide) after the start of induction, as demonstrated by both PS exposure on the outer layer of plasma membrane and complete membrane permeability in nearly all collected cells (Fig. 2A) along with nuclear condensation and/or fragmentation (Fig. 2B). Early apoptosis of C26 cells was achieved by staurosporine induction (10 µM) for 4 h and confirmed by exposure of PS on the cell surface without increase in membrane permeability.
As analyzed by flow cytometry, incubation of fluorescently labeled apoptotic cells with macrophages resulted in formation of a double-positive (CD11b

65 percent of Dutch organizations regard information security as the biggest challenge in cloud computing. This is shown by research by Computable and Jaarbeurs. 502 people took part in the research, mainly working for end users. Slightly less than half of the respondents (48 percent) cited privacy as the biggest challenge within cloud computing after information security. It is clear that concerns about security and privacy stand in the way of the application of cloud computing. That’s a pity, because these challenges can be solved easily.
To embed cloud computing safely and securely in the ICT landscape, a well thought-out ABC (Application & Business Architecture) architecture is crucial. With at its heart a so-called point of control, the central place where people, systems and information come together. This point of control regulates the secure access to and handling ofwhether they are somewhere in the cloud or in their own environment. Such a point of control can also be in the cloud itself.

‘ime? Or ‘is this user the person he claims to be? These are questions that can be answered from the point of control. And from where the security policies are automatically imposed.

Morocco plans to achieve 5 and 100% of its electricity demand by 2050.
According to 2019 data, renewable energy accounts for approximately 35% of the country's electricity demand. As of the end of 2019, Morocco's solar power generation capacity was 736 megawatts. The entire renewable energy production capacity is 3,264 MW.
Looking to the future, as solar energy becomes more cost-competitive, solar energy will assume greater responsibility in the growth of renewable energy.
Since Morocco supported and signed the Paris Agreement, Morocco’s efforts to formulate green policies have increased rapidly. The country is committed to implementing a renewable energy strategy. Although COVID19 has brought some uncertainty, it is expected to achieve the 2020 goal and its ultimate goal of producing 52% of electricity from renewable energy.
In addition, like other countries, the rapid growth of additional power from renewable energy sources has also caused problems with grid integration, and Morocco is increasingly seeking smart digital solutions. In general, Morocco is taking more reasonable steps 0.

Mejia nets Peña endorsement in mayoral race
Mayoral candidate James Mejia, left, and former Mayor Federico Peña arrive at their news conference inDenver’s Sun Valley neighborhood Wednesday.
PUBLISHED: March 16, 2011 at 3:07 pm | UPDATED: May 4, 2016 at 6:14 pm
Calling it a crucial time for the city, former Denver Mayor Federico Peña on Wednesday endorsed James Mejia in the upcoming mayoral election.
“No disrespect to the other candidates, but they just don’t have his résumé,” Peña said after a news conference. “We don’t have to guess whether he can make tough budget decisions. We don’t have to guess whether he understands how the city functions from Day One. We don’t have to guess whether he understands international trade. We don’t have to guess whether he’ll know how to cut the budget.”He’s got the whole package in a way that no other candidate has—they all have pieces of it, but they don’t have the whole package.”
Mejia, one of 10 candidates for mayor, said the endorsement was especially meaningful for him because he grew up admiring Peña.
“To have the confidence of an individual who, in my opinion, laid the path for decades of development in Denver, is significant in itself,” Mejia said. “But when you also talk about the values with which he’s operated and how he’s spent his political career, there can’t be a better model to emulate.”
Although he Peña has been reluctant to engage in local mayoral elections since leaving office. He made no endorsement in the 2003 race won by Hickenlooper.
“If I think there’s an exceptional leader, I’m not afraid to jump in early,” Peña said.
Peña said that before making his endorsement, he reached out to candidates Chris Romer and Carol Boigon, who had previously sought his support, as well as Michael Hancock. The conversation with Hancock, a one-time protégé of Peña’s, was especially tough, the former mayor said.
“He was a gentleman about it,” Pena said. “He and I are very close — but I am so concerned about the future of the city that I wanted to help insure that the very best, most talented person will become mayor,” Peña said.
Hancock’ with the city councilman calling Pena, “A great mayor.” He served Denver with distinction and inspired us to imagine a great city. I’m honored he considered my candidacy so carefully and thoughtfully.
“No one promised this was going to be easy for me. Like everything I have accomplished in my life, I will earn this election with hard work and determination,” Hancock said.
Wednesday’s announcement led some to wonder whether Webb, Peña’s successor as mayor, would also be making his preference known in the near future.
“Stay tuned,” Webb said.
But if the endorsement process was tough for Peña, it may be four times as hard for Webb, who says he has “two sons (Hancock and Mejia) a sister (Boigon) and a nephew (Romer)” in the race.
“They’re all members of my political family who have been supportive of me through the years,” Webb said.
The election will be May 3. If one candidate doesn’t win une.

🇩🇰 Xtra Insider 2020: We Review DenmarkDenmarkDanish entry, Yes by Ben & Tan, from Dominik, Luke, Matt, Sean, Simon and Tom R. Let’s get started!
Denmark has won the contest three times, most recently in 2013. Overall, Denmark is generally performing pretty well, with only failing to qualify twice over the past ten years. Their best result recently came in 2018, when Rasmussen finished 9th in the final. The Danish vikings were particularly popular with the televoters, who placed them fifth in the final.
For this year’s Dansk Melodi Grand Prix, five finalists were selected through the P4 radio selection, while the other five entries were selected as direct qualifiers by the broadcaster. The winners Ben & Tan competed in the radio selection and qualified to the final from the Eastern Denmark group. Due the exceptional situation, there wasn’t any live audience in the final. The duo Ben & Tan met during the Danish X Factor, where they both competed in 2019. The entry “YES” is their first released song.
Denmark is quite well known of their positive, easy to sing-along songs. “YES” is very radio-friendly, extremely catchy song, but it also might be seen as disposable pop. It’s probably easiest to compare the song to some other Danish entries such as “Cliché Love Song” and even “Love Is Forever”. Both of those songs did slightly better with the professional juries, but both got respectable results.
Oh this is very catchy and radio friendly. Great chorus. I feel like the verses could be a bit stronger, but overall a solid entry. It’s certainly an entry that is coming even more alive with a crowd belting out the chorus. I can see myself listening to it when it comes on during shuffle play.
YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! …sorry, was just giving Ben & Tan what they wanted. I am utterly obsessed with this; how can you NOT listen and be absolutely in love?!? Denmark is now my favourite entry for the second year running, and “think my heart is beating me to death” is one of my favourite lyrics of this year!
DMGP this year was, as it is every year, painfully weak. Every year there’s only one or two quality entries and it’s just a matter of Denmark actually getting it right. Luckily, they did this year. In the long run, Neither this nor Human were winners, but they’re both good. However, if Denmark ever wants a shot at a top ten, “good” isn’t good enough.
Cheerfulness by numbers. Not unpleasant but after 20 seconds you know exactly what’s coming until the saccharine sweet end.
Say YES! Social distancing came early with Ben & Tan’s national final performance but the dynamic on stage was there! This song is so ‘Eurovision’ which isn’t always the best approach anymore but I think it demonstrates that sometimes a quality, feel-good song would still do well in Eurovision. I’m saying YES to keeping this on my 2020 playlist. Good job Denmark!
Therefore, Denmark scores 136 points in total!
Denmark ties with Ireland both have a score of 136! Using the standard Eurovision tiebreaker rules, both entries have the same number of 12 points (two each)…but Denmark has three sets of 10 points whereas Ireland only has two. Therefore, Denmark beats Ireland and gets 7th place!
Tomorrow, it will be the turn of Latvia t Danish entry below!
Do you agree with our reviews of Denmark? What are your thoughts on Yes?

We’re glad to hear Lando is doing better. We’re still sending mega purrs. Maybe Mini should come over and remind Lando how to eat all the food in sight. She eats veggies too.

What's these people's problem with word clouds?
What are some of the common critiques of word clouds?
So how can we address these shortcomings of word clouds, given that they can sometimes be a nice method for summarizing text data in a visually engaging way?
've forgotten to do this many times!? "fabric."
With smaller groupings of related words, the viewer can focus on the key takeaways in each of those themes instead of having to study all the words and figure out an overarching message. As one research study says, "It is better to organize those words into zones of meaning, and display those zones in visually distinct groups, via spatial or color grouping."ere'For example, maybe you want to dive into the opinions of your customers ages 18-34, especially their positive reviews of your tops, so you can see which characteristics they really like. The bar chart below shows one way to see a ranking of the most common words they used (with a few obvious stop words — shirt, top, love, and great — added to the default list). Size and fit appear to be popular criteria that happy customers discuss; it's also easy to see in this format that size and fit were mentioned more often than "comfortable."
W's ?Post your question below!
For more on data visualization of all kinds, check out our Data Science Mixer podcast episodes with data viz author and expert Alberto Cairo; we have a short episode from our Virtual Global Inspire conference and a full-length episode for your enjoyment!
Thanks for the useful and inciteful article!
Hey @Ken_Black!Thanks for the comment —I enjoyed checking out your article, too!
One aspect of the Word Cloud tool in Intelligence Suite that I didn't mention here — and that you might enjoy using — is the ability to use an image mask for the word cloud. That can make for some pretty intriguing designs!

I have been kind of unmotivated to blog this week. Well, actually just yesterday and today. Granted, I was SOOO busy yesterday that even if I had wanted to blog, I wouldn't have had time. It was a very frustrating day.
So yes, it's snowing again. It looks like it's snowing pretty hard out there right now, and I've heard that we're expecting anywhere from 4-6 inches.
For what it's worth: I'm ready for the warm weather to return!!!
As you ALL know, my birthday is quickly approaching. I really hope I get a scanner for my new computer. I have so many fun pictures that I want to share with people!! Now that I have a super-duper, fast computer, I'm hoping that it won't be a chore to upload them all to various locations around the world wide web.
I'd also like a police scanner. If you didn't already know it, I'm kind of nosy. :-) I would TOTALLY be 'that guy' sitting in his rocking chair listening to all the activities going on around town. My grandfather had a police scanner and when I'd visit him and my Nana, I would sit there for hours and just listen to it. I loved it!!
I'd also like some new socks and underwear. I know they aren't typically considered gifts, but to be honest - I NEVER buy myself new socks and underwear so when I get them as gifts, I'm always very happy. I need black/blue (cotton) dress socks, white athletic socks (both crew and those little ankle-height ones), and some boxer briefs. (shoe size: 10 / undies: large)
There...now you know what I want.
Do I expect my blog readers to shower me with gifts?
Absolutely. :-) :-) :-)
I'm going to be turning 37 (2 weeks from today), which is a fairly uneventful birthday.
Although, when I think about being 37 it's kind of crazy. Not because it's 'old'...it's certainly not.
It's just that....being over 35 was SOOO old. It's funny to think back to those days...being 37 felt so far away.
Hey, at least I'm not 40. :-)
That's enough of that. If you're dealing with the snow, as I am, please stay warm and be safe.
If you're dealing with warm weather....enjoy it, and know that there are a whole lot of envious people up north.
Here are some cute men, for your Wednesday enjoyment....

The Pain of Online School Remains, Even When Kids Are in Classrooms
Back to school in-person has brought joy to parents and students alike, who are sick of dealing with Zoom calls, educational games, online homework, and all the tech bugs that came with education jamming in web browser tabs.
Even when the students are together face-to-face, the teacher can start a lesson in Google Classroom or Canvas, which is then divided into half a dozen other websites for math quizzes, science videos, or reading. For middle and high school students, different teachers may have different curricula, adding to the confusion.
A weekly look at our most unique, colorful, thought-provoking and original stories about business in life.
Sometimes students forget to submit their work or leave the site before completing an educational game, parents and teachers say. Other times systems don't communicate with each other, causing tasks to be flagged as missing. Many students no longer submit paper assignments at all, and are instead expected to make digital copies. Online teacher grade books don't always sync up with digital classes, leaving students and parents anxious about failing grades and unsure of work received.
With some districts returning to remote education due to an increase in Covid-19 cases, and with many other students in quarantine, digital classrooms have proven to be an ongoing necessity. Education experts say that digital classrooms are here to stay and that we all need to get used to it. I have some tips on how to manage this, below.
Bethany Dasco's ninth-grade daughter struggled shooting art projects with her Chromebook camera. Sometimes, she either handed them over late, for partial credit, or didn't give them at all.
Reliance on technology has prompted some parents to buy their children's phones sooner than they would like. The difficulty of taking pictures of schoolwork on a Chromebook is one reason Ms. Dasco, a graphic designer in Northeast Washington, recently bought a phone for her daughter.
"Teachers cite the same challenges — it's not just parents and students," said Heather Dodd, a former teacher turned educational training consultant and co-author of Classroom Management in the Digital Age.
She said she expects digital classrooms to become more streamlined and easier to use. Until then, many parents complain that technical issues get in the way of learning and wonder: What's so bad about paper and pencil, anyway?
Michelle McNally was an eighth grader who struggled to keep track of each teacher's way of showing that work was done. Some of his professors request snapshots of physical labor; Others check students' computers to see that work is complete.
"Is the goal of learning the system or the goal of learning the content?" said Ms. McNally, executive director of digital marketing for Indianapolis.
Jessica Ortiz, of Vermillion, Ohio, said one of her sixth-graders' teachers sends an email to parents each week letting them know what students should be working on, while sending out the latest updates through an app. Some do not communicate with parents at all.
Isabella Ortiz, eleven, with sisters Bridget, 15, and Eliana, 4; Her mother said it was easier to keep track of Isabella's progress in school when she brought home the tasks listed on paper.
Ms Ortiz said she has little knowledge of how her sixth grader, Isabella, is performing in school now that she has done all of her work in class with a laptop. Ms. Ortiz said that when she used to bring graded papers home, she could see what kinds of math problems were causing her problems and would print out the worksheets to help reinforce those skills.
Some of her daughter's scores aren't updated online often, so it's not clear to her if a zero on an assignment means her daughter has missed answers, or she hasn't submitted them, or she hasn't been graded yet.
"She's kind of alone now," Ms. Ortiz said.
Parents can help manage children's digital tasks by following some organizational tips.
Develop a work tracking system. Ask your children how they like to organize their tasks. If they don't know, try experimenting. Do they prefer note-taking apps and timers instead of paper notes? Some schools offer students a calendar to note down their homework assignments each day. If your school doesn't, create your own. You can also sit down with your child and make a paper or electronic list of sites where each teacher posts assignments. See my previous column on digital to-do lists, reminders, and calendar apps.
The science of self-advocacy. Parents say kids often don't speak up when they have a technical problem. They can use some encouragement to ask for help or email the teacher. "Instead of assuming your child knows how to ask their teacher for something, play a few scenarios with your child," said Ms. Dodd.
You have backup plans. Ms Dodd said it was helpful to remind children why they shouldn't wait until the last minute to turn in work, and to prepare them for this scenario. What if the internet in your home is down on the night the assignment is due? Is there another place they can go to access the Internet? What happens if they leave their laptop at school? Do they know how to log in from another device?
For tips on saving passwords, bookmarking your students' most frequently used websites and using virtual assistants, see my column on making remote school easier. If a lack of motivation is a factor, you've written about ways to motivate your teen.

I would be grateful if photographs of memorials could be large enough so that we can see what’s written on them. Each memorial is an attempt to capture or represent key issues surrounding the institution or policy. I’m sure that a lot of thought and effort is devoted to the idea and the implementation. So it’s a great pity that others can’t share this work by a more detailed image. Indeed, why can’t we have a full page image?

According to The Hill:
Since Saturday, nearly a dozen entries into the group’s Twitter feed mention Gingrich, the general chairman of American Solutions, and Anuzis, who heads American Solutions’ anti-EFCA campaign.
Twitter has become a popular platform for groups on both sides of EFCA — also called card-check —Communications Workers of America are all using the site to send brief messages to supporters, while those opposed to the bill are rallying their troops as well.
A final interesting political tidbit via The Hill, but apparently reported initially via Twitter:
SEIU chief Andy Stern on Sunday used his Twitter account to call Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) "impressive" and to reveal that he would meet with Sestak on Monday.
- provide for mandatory arbitration following a 120-day mediation period, if after an initial 120 days of bargaining failed to result in an agreement;
- require an employer to provide equal access to the employees to union organizers once an election is ordered.
So, it would seem both these men have at times supported EFCA, and also recognized the potential for some alternative labor law reform proposals.

Kienholz: The Ozymandias Parade / Concept Tableaux Nov 08, 2012 – Dec 22, 2012
A presentation of the monumental installationThe Ozymandias Parade(1985), a scathing commentary on the abuse of political power, on view in New York for the first time since the Whitney Museum's retrospective in 1996. The exhibition also features ten Concept Tableaux, Edward Kienholz's instructions for unrealized installations.
Pace is honored to present an exhibition of work 1972The Ozymandias Parade was originally created for the exhibition No! Contemporary American Dada at the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle. It has since been shown in a half-dozen countries and now’s retrospective of Kienholz in 1996. This summer’s presentation of the work at the Museum Tinguely in Basel, Switzerland, was the first time that the answer to the poll has been YES.
“Besides the underlying anger, with or without physical material, it is a profound skepticism that defines and distinguishes Kienholz’s essentially highly moral oeuvre,” Dr. Weinhart writes of the The Ozymandias Parade / Concept Tableaux. “There is skepticism about institutionalized faith, which, depending on the work, is sometimes expressed in sneering irony, sometimes in open outrage. Skepticism about sexual power relationships; skepticism about excessive trust in politicians; skepticism about power structures in general.”
Edward Kienholz (1927–1994) moved from Washington State to Los Angeles in 1953, where he quickly became a central figure in the Southern California art scene, showing at the influential Ferus Gallery. By the early 60s, he abandoned the abstract paintings and wall reliefs his early career and dedicated himself to installation. Considered one of the pioneers of assemblage and installation art for his groundbreaking mixed-media tableaux, Kienholz has a profound impact o onwards, 1943), who continues to create and oversee the installation and presentation of her and her late husband’s work worldwide. The Kienholzes’ work has been the subject of dozens of museum exhibitions worldwide, including at the Louisiana Museum of Art Musèe Nationale d'art modern, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (1977); and the Moderna Museet, Stockholm (1971).

Ha, ha! Yeah, probably most of us are not the ones to be doling out advice! Do as I say, not as I do should be our mantra!

I don't think this is stupid at all. Seems to me you might have a chronic thing going on that you are trying to manage while doing something you love (running). Your approach to it all seems v reasonable to me. Good luck!!!

4 months is a still a long time for your groin injury to heal. My knee tendonitis started in March after the Little Rock Marathon and lasted until August. I had some weeks that I took off completely and some I ran just a few times a week. I could not imagine a time when I could run and not feel that annoying knee pain. It just slowly went away but it really just needed time. I hope your injury fades away quickly so you can enjoy some pain-free running again!
Happy Feet 26.2October 3, 2012 at 7:29 AM
may I suggest some yoga ? it heals all......
hopefully with the stretching/rehab, the injury will fade away.....
do you have plans to run the Mandeville half as a training run, maybe?
I signed up last year when it was cheap. I'm just running base miles after TOU, but thinking I may go and run it as a training run (undecided)
lindsayOctober 3, 2012 at 8:46 PM
I sure hope people are smart enough to not take advice from us... I'd be in trouble for promoting my "how to run a marathon without any long runs" method.
I hope this mysterious pain can be figured out / managed / disappears altogether. Good that you're able to take a level-headed approach to the new round of training!

You may think that it's a waste of time and that repeating a few sentences won't change how you feel. But it's been scientifically proven that affirmations can rewire our way of thinking. This is because our brains have a unique ability to adapt to different circumstances, called "neuroplasticity." As a result, they can be tricked into confusing imagination with reality, and affirmations take advantage of this "loophole."e?Do you care too much about other people's opinions?

Is anyone else having trouble getting the video to work?
darolew October 1, 2008 at 17:10
It says I need a Windows Media Player 11 plugin.
Windows Media Player has been giving me a lot of trouble lately. Damnit.
Here’s a press release from Murhpy:
READING, PA – On Tuesday, September 30 independent candidate John Murphy who had been barred from two out of three of the 16th District Congressional debates in 2006 appeared in a second televised debate this year. The debate took place in the studios of BCTV in Reading Pennsylvania. Incumbent Republican Mr. Pitts who refused to debate Murphy and the other candidates in front of the entire district on WGAL-TV last week, decided to make an appearance in Reading. Only a small percentage of the 16th District voters would see this program.
When asked to identify the major problem facing the United States Mr. Pitts incorrectly maintained that it was the current bailout crisis. The independent congressional candidate John Murphy pointed out that it was not this immediate crisis that was the major problem facing the United States. Murphy said “this is merely a symptom of a much deeper problem that is endemic to our economy”. Murphy went on to say that it is indeed “the economy which is the major problem and it is a problem which can be laid at the feet of Ronald Reagan as well as the Democrats and Republicans who embraced the neo-liberal economics of Milton Freedman under which Ronald Reagan decided to destroy what was at least a functional form of capitalism by throwing out all the rules”.
Murphy added that Ronald Reagan “allowed our economic system to become a free-for-all whereby even the word free would be redefined as meaning license for corporations to do anything they wished in order to increase short-term profitability while ignoring the long-term wealth of the nation”. Murphy was also careful to place blame on Bill Clinton initiation of the so-called free trade agreements like NAFTA.
Mr. Pitts also those free trade agreements. He maintained that NAFTA had created jobs while it was pointed out by both Murphy and the Constitutional Party candidate Dan Frank that the United States has in fact lost over 3 million manufacturing jobs. John Murphy also indicated that “corporate criminals like Archer Daniels Midland, ConAgra and Monsanto, the very companies who want to wipe out family farms in the United States, were permitted under NAFTA to ship billions and billions of tons of cheap corn into Mexico which wiped out Mexican family farms ultimately resulting in influx of 13 million economic refugees into the US which both the Democrats and Republicans demonize as illegal immigrants who now constitute a slave labor force for US corporations”.
Incumbent Pitts also engaged in a misguided criticism of Constitutional Party candidate Dan Frank who correctly estimated the National Debt at $10 trillion. Incumbent Republican Pitts told the audience that it was the trade deficit that was $10 trillion. Of course the trade deficit year-to-date is approximately $68 billion and was $708 billion for 2007. Pitts continued in this Sarah Palin-like blunder by suggesting that the national debt was in fact $54 trillion. He would have been somewhere in the neighbor of a correct answer had he said that the national debt along with what are often called “unfunded obligations” total approximately $59.1 trillion dollars. But that figure is not operational from a management point of view. While it is a measurement of government liability it is entirely different from the national debt and vastly different from the trade deficit.
Nowhere did Mr. Pitts show his lack of understanding of the issues more blatantly than the issue of universal single-payer healthcare. While it is the HMOs that force people to choose from a limited list of doctors, universal single-payer healthcare allows any patient to choose his or her doctor and gives the doctor control over the health care system and not the insurance company. Mr. Pitts was 180° off in his answer. Mr. Pitts said that it was important to keep health care in the hands of the free market even as we witness what the free market has done to the banking industry. The so-called free market has long-ago destroyed healthcare in the United States which is now ranked 37th in the world in terms of quality of healthcare. Murphy pointed out that “1care — that’s six 9/11s– that’s real terrorism. We must end this pay or die system. Universal single-payer healthcare does not mean government ownership of healthcare it simply means Medicare for all and government acts as the insurance company”.
But Pitts’ failure to understand the economy, trade and health care were only eclipsed by his lack of knowledge about energy independence. Mr. Pitts insisted that we engage in offshore drilling and tearing up the Alaskan National Wildlife Preserve to make the oil industry even more money. Scientists have shown that new offshore drilling would take 12 years to deliver the first gallon of gasoline to the American consumer while hurricanes would blow away a hundred thousand gallons every time they hit. Murphy pointed out that “investment inwave, wind and other non-combustibles would not only end our dependence on fossil fuel and foreign energy sources but would create millions of new jobs”. Murphy concluded his remarks on energy by insisting “no drilling, no nukes”.
In his concluding statement John Murphy said “the Corporate Palence. I have a different visl”.

Kicking off Day 2. See the Day 1 post here.
My day 2 began with Alex running through a cavalcade of improvements in Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET 4. These have been covered in great detail all over the place, but it is still nice to have them presented and demonstrated live allowing for feedback and questions.
I won't cover off all the tips and tricks that Alex covered here, I'll just link off to a good resource which is Scott Gu's series on this.
This was a great session, I hadn't thought about the possibilities of geolocation to improve application experience. Tatham introduced the concepts and then demonstrated a simple pizza delivery application that tapped into the users current location (with their consent) to pre-seed a location aware list of options. The good news is that Windows 7 has geolocation support built in. We've already been using services on devices such as iPhone that use the assisted-gps (A-GPS) to tag things such as tweets with your location, drop a marker on Google maps with your current location and offer directions.
For resources and more information see Tatham's blog post here.
The future of exposing, visualising and interacting with data on the web.
In this session OData was introduced in more detail to the REMIX audience. I'm covering off the basics of OData in a series myself so go check that out here.
The most audience pleasing concept demonstrated was the use of the awesome Microsoft Labs – Pivot available at GetPivot.com. It is a visual data interaction tool. To save me from failing to do it justice in a few lines of text, check out this 5 minute TED 2010 video presented by Gary Flake on Pivot.
Michael Kordahi, Andrew Coates and guests.
The REMIX audience during lunch got to be the live studio audience for a taping of Frankly Speaking. I'll post a link to the episode here when it's up.
Note the donkey is a reference to "taking the donkey work out of installation" – promoting the Web Platform Installer for Windows. It's very handy check it out.
I didn't end up going to any of the session in the slots 4 & 5. I joined a few colleagues in the labs.
There was a fair bit of discussion, analysis and reasoning provided by Shane, so I'll just list out the conclusion slides.
Space and size components evenly.
All-in-all REMIX was a great 2 day event, and for the early bird price of < $200 was a bargain, when you factored in all you can drink coffee, buffet lunches and after party. Having already published my brief summary, all I can say here is that if you have the opportunity to attend REMIX, take it.

How Voice Conferencing Powers OCS 2007 R2
Multimodal conferences
Basic Conferencing Architecture
Inviting Others to the Conference
Escalating a Two-Party Call to a Conference
Invite options in Office Communicator 2007 R2
Office Communicator clients provide the ability to escalate an audio or audio/video call, an instant message session, or a multimodal call and instant message session to a conference, by seamlessly escalating all modes together. Users can add additional attendees to two-party audio calls by dragging and dropping other users from the Contact list in Office Communicator or by using the Invite menu (see
Before I delve into the details of how conferencing works, I should discuss the types of conferences OCS supports. Conferences can be created in Office Communications Server 2007 R2 with the following types:
Users authenticated against OCS 2007 can join the conference and invite other authenticated users. The word "open" signifies that membership is open. Ad hoc conferences created by Office Communicator 2007 R2 are open authenticated by default.
Authenticated users can join the conference, but the membership to the conference is restricted and controlled by the organizer.
shows the logical architecture for a conference that has three Office Communicator clients for three users. The dotted lines represent the SIP-based signaling channel that is established between the clients and the focus, which in turn establishes the channel with the various MCUs. The solid lines show the audio/video stream that is terminated on the Audio/Video MCU. Other media streams, such as IM and data, are intentionally omitted from this diagram for the purpose of simplicity.
For instance, AddConference is a C3P command that is used to add a conference to the focus factory. The focus factory responds with a unique conference SIP URI, which is based off the user's own SIP URI. For example, say my SIP URI is sip:[email protected]. When the client issues an AddConference command, the focus factory would return a unique key to the conference that looks something like this: sip:[email protected];gruu;opaque=app:conf:focus:id:A0DB798E3EDA984FACAD30D1A8DCD35A. This SIP URI key uniquely identifies the OCS conference. It can be shared with other participants to give them access to the conference. This is the same URI that is sent in the message generated by using the Invite by E-mail option.
As I mentioned before, C3P rides on top of the SIP, and the SIP allows sessions to be created between any two user agents (or, to be syntactically correct, ). The payload of a SIP session need not always be an audio or video SDP (Session Description Protocol); it can be a way to establish a pure signaling channel. This concept is used by clients to establish a SIP-based signaling channel with the focus factory to a particular conference session.
The first step is to create a conference and establish a SIP signaling session with the focus factory. The first command a client uses is to create a conference session in the focus factory so that the client can begin interacting with the conference focus. This is done using a special SIP request called SERVICE. The SERVICE request/200 OK pair carry the AddConference command and the AddConference response, respectively. Once the SERVICE/200 OK step is completed, the client has obtained a unique conference ID that it can use to talk to the focus to obtain information related to the MCUs, add other users, and manage the conference membership.

When a user selects a specific phone number for a contact, or when the user selects Invite by Phone, Office Communicator instead issues an AddUserDialout command to the A/V MCU. A dial-out INVITE is a simple VoIP INVITE originating from the A/V MCU that allows downlevel clients and PSTN endpoints to join an Audio/Video conference.
shows that Alice's Office Communicator client first creates the conference and joins it using the constructs I have discussed.
Escalating a two-party conference is a bit more involved than simply starting a conference. This is because the two-party call must be maintained until both parties switch over to the conference. Office Communicator clients conduct a synchronized escalation process where each client joins the conference before terminating the peer to peer call.
Alice's Office Communicator client creates a conference session based on the focus factory.
Once the conference join is successful, Alice's Office Communicator sends an App-INVITE to Bob's client specifying the conference URI.
Once Bob's Office Communicator joins the A/V MCU successfully, it sends a BYE to the peer session .
Both Alice's client and Bob's client activate the RTP stream to the A/V MCU at the same time to maintain continuity of the call.
Note that this sequence of steps is very carefully executed. If Bob's Office Communicator client is unable to join the conferencing server, then the conference escalation fails and the peer to peer calls continue.
Escalating PSTN calls to a conference is also supported, but instead of sending the App-INVITE in step 3, Office Communicator would issue an AddUserDialOut to the A/V MCU and add a Replaces header so that the call from the A/V MCU can replace the peer to peer call between the two Office Communicator endpoints. This is illustrated in

Acute Care trained physical therapists also covered for nurses by stepping in to monitor vital signs and oxygen saturation in trauma ICUs and other floors such as critical care where patients are unstable.
Jim Smith, PT, DPT, president of the APTA’s Acute Care Section brought the point of acute care being a physiological state rather than a physical location where the patient is being treated. “Things that were ‘acute’ when I was a new PT and had to be handled in the hospital, we’re now routinely managing in home care, in rehab centers and even in outpatient clinics” he noted. (1)
The Boston Marathon Bombing called attention to the role of this specialty in both the lay press and in several of our physical therapy magazines. Based on the latest research, The Acute Care specialty stresses early mobilization for complex medical patients now under circumstances of physiological instability, where years ago they would be left in bed or at best, in a chair. It became clear that the benefits of mobilization outweighed the risks so long as the physiological responses were monitored for safety, and to push the patients little by little to achieve optimal outcomes. In the case of the Boston Marathon Bombing victims, many of them were receiving physical therapy within a day or two to get them up, and for the amputees to start to teach them desensitization techniques to handle their pain.
Since many of us are seeing acutely ill patients in many different practice settings (SNF, home care, rehab, OPD), let us know how you have adapted to early hospital discharges and if you have issues that are unresolved about this process. How do you facilitate communication across the continuum between settings and facilities with these quick transitions of care?

Permitted dependants under Agricultural Occupancy Condition need not be financially
“”
The whole case turned on the meaning of the word “dependant”. The Planning Court could not find any meaning for that word here. Each case would depend upon its own facts.
Consequently, as there had been no ten plus years’ transgression of the Planning Condition, enforcement action could not and could not have been taken against Mr and Mrs Shortt.
Warners Retail (Moreton) Ltd v Cotswold District Council [2014] tried to establish that Moreton-in-Marsh could only accommodate one food store (i.e. the claimant’s extended Budgens already granted planning permission) and not also the one proposed by Mintons.
The claimant said the sequential test had been interpreted and/or applied by the Council incorrectly. It claimed that the sites to which the sequential test had been applied had not included the Budgens site because the officers were of the view that “Land at Budgens already benefit[ed] from planning permission for retail development in the form of an extension to the existing store”, and so that land did not need to be considered when undertaking the sequential assessment. The claimant said the Council’s Planning Committee Members would not have appreciated that paragraph 6.41 of the Planning for Town Centres – Practice Guidance on Need, Impact and the Sequential Approach (DCLG, 2009) (“the Guidance”) required the Budgens site to be taken into account.
The Guidance on the sequential approach says:
“6.37 These terms [for the sequential approach] are defined as:
Availability – whether sites are available now or area reasonable period of time (determined on the merits of a particular case, having regard to inter alia, the urgency of the need)…
Suitability – with due regard to the requirements to demonstrate flexibility, whether sites are suitable to accommodate .
6.41 When promoting a proposal on a less sequentially preferable site, it will not be appropriate for a developer or retailer to dismiss a more central location on the basis that it is not available to the developer/retailer in question
ii) Suitability
6.42 When judging the suitability of a sitescale and form of development needed, and w., either individually or collectively, to meeting the same requirements.”
The Planning Court was satisfied that the Budgens site was taken into account by the Council when applying the sequential test.
It’s Planning Officer had reported:
“The Retail Impact Assessment (‘RIA’) indicated that the town could accommodate a further food store of the size proposed in addition to the extant Budgens scheme without havingMoreton-in-Marsh commercial centre. The RIA was independently assessed. The Budgens site was not available for further development over and above their approved scheme. Consequently, it could not accommodate the proposed Minton development”.
The Council had been entitled to conclude that the town could accommodate a food store of the size proposed in the Minton application in addition to the approved extension of Budgens.
The Guidance should not be interpreted in a rigid, mechanistic way. It laid down guidelines not tram lines.
Indeed it had not been suggested on the claimant’s behalf that the Budgens site was a suitable alternative site for the Minton proposal.
Adopting the application centric approach in an earlier Supreme Court judgment in the Scottish case of Tesco Stores Ltd v Dundee City Council [2012] the court said “suitability” had to be read in the context of ‘suitable for the development proposed by the applicant’ rather than ‘’. “The whole exercise” in respect of the issue of suitability “is directed to what the developer is proposing, not some other proposal which the planning authority might seek to substitute for it which is for something less than that sought by the developer.”
However as the Officer’s report had noted the RIA demonstrated that the town could accommodate one additional,town centre.
The claimant had failed to establish that the sequential test had been erroneously interpreted and/or applied.
In 2016 tjudgement said:
“On a fair reading of the two committee reports as a whole, the sequential test was, in my view, properly understood and lawfully applied.”

The bank tried to argue that the trustees were estopped from denying that it had been properly executed.
It pointed to a letter the bank had received from a Mr Gray who was solicitor for the trustees, solicitor acting for the bank and one of the trustees.
The bank said this was a clear representation that the legal mortgage had been validly executed.
However the court said this case was indistinguishable from the unfavourable High Court case of Briggs v Gleeds (2014) which I blogged here a short while ago (See Category “Pension Schemes”). That case had given six powerful reasons for not allowing an estoppel where it is clear on the face of the “deed” that it had not been executed in accordance with the 1989 Act”).
So tfact that the legal mortgage was not validly executed as a deed.
Section 2 of the 1989 Act provides:
“ are exchanged, in each.
These principles operated to grant the bank’s mortgage some salvation. It was not executed as a deed and thus did not take effect as a legal mortga. So it took effect as an equitable mortgage.

For a misrepresentation claim to succeed the claimant must show both that a material misrepresentation was made and that he relied on it.
The case that follows illustrates that a sophisticated professional who invests may face higher hurdles here.
In Roberts v Egan [2014] the issues were whether any representation was made and, if so, the extent of the representation. The claimant was an experienced solicitor who had made two investments, each of £204,000, in a scheme involving acquisition and development work on various new shopping centres. The claimant had lost the whole of his investment and now sued the respondent to get it back.
The claimant based much of his claim upon the statements in the three-page report, he alleged to have been attached to an email, and a one-page summary attached to the same email.
The three-page report said “the debt for undertaking the developments would be organised by [the developer, Henry Davidson Developments Limited] via their own bank, RBS in Nottingham, and we will just continue to own the sites but have no responsibility for the development funding throughout the building period”; and the one-page summary of the investment proposal, also prepared by the respondent, contained a further statement that “… the developers will arrange their own bank finance with the LLP making balancing profit payments on completion”.
In any event any qualified solicitor and experienced and astute commercial investor such as the claimant, objectively reading those documents would have appreciated that these were no more than outline proposals, and that matters of detail would have to be addressed in the detailed funding documentation and long-form security documentation that would have to be drawn up and settled before the investment scheme could go ahead. The court found that these had been emailed to the claimant in draft and held that, on the claimant reading them, they would have operated to cancel any misrepresentation or, false impression there may have been earlier.
In compulsory purchase the Pointe Gourde principle states that the level cannot be increased by a change in the value of land which was entirely due to the scheme that the compulsory purchase was needed for. The purpose of the principle was “to prevent the acquisition of the.”
Section 5 of the Land Compensation Act 1961 (“the 1961 Act”) requires compensation for compulsory acquisition to be assessed in accordance with 6 rules. Rule (3) says:
The reference to special suitability is of the land itself and not the nature of an interest giving rise to marriage value e.g. the fact that a sitting tenant would pay more than an investor for the freehold to avoid being turned out of the property, would not clothe the land with a special suitability whose value would fall to be ignored under rule (3).
But neither of the licences gave NRIL any right to use, maintain or gain access to the shaft and NRIL had had to acquire the shaft land under the compulsory purchase order to be able to use it.
So an enhanced value due to NRIL’s special interest in purchasing the land could not be given to plot 11a over and above the amount the land would have fetched if sold in the open market.
Artificial SPVs were qualifying leasehold enfranchisement tenantwas intended to allow long term residential tenants of apartments in a building (“participating tenants”) to club together to purchase their landlord’s interest at a price determined in accordance with the 1993 Act (“collective enfranchisement”). However the 1993 Act says no “participating tenant” can hold more than 2 flats.
1. The corporate structure.
Had the SPVs and LLC been “associated companies” within the meaning of the 1993 Act, all the SPV tenancies would have had to be ignored as qualifying tenancies. However the court accepted that the SPVs were not associated companies. Though they had a similar shareholding, no person held a majority of the voting rights, no person had the right to appoint directors and no person had control by agreement with others. All the voting and control rights were split equally between LLC and Holdings, because each had 50% of the voting rights. There was no agreement (or other arrangement) which gave either LLC or Holdings control. Nor was Holdings under the control of LLC because its shares were held by the trustees of a discretionary trust. Those trustees were independent and those trustees were not the nominees of anyone.
No superior corporate entity was allowed control of the SPVs but the arrangement preserved the economic benefits of the leaseholdings for the benefit of the group (in substance for LLC).
3. Non – residential use
The reality was that the construction project was never going to be completed by the vendor – particularly during the recession. There wa i.e. the purchaser who was prepared to wait or who could not be bothered to do anything about the failure to complete the work and the purchaser who felt that he or she could not wait, possibly, for a very long time.
A purchaser in the latter category could only try to secure the recovery of his or her deposit by accepting any repudiation on the part of the developer vendor.
In practice the latter case would only arise where the flat construction had been substantially completed. So the parties to the policy the deposits being recoverable by the purchasers from the vendor if the latter had repudiated the agreements for lease by being unable or unwilling to proceed with construction of the flats.
In Bank Leumi (UK) Plc v Akrill [2014] the respondent (“the bank”) sought summary judgment against the appellant (“Mr Akrill”) on two personal guarantee claims totalling £3,840,493.83 including interest and costs to be assessed, if not agreed.
Mr Akrill later signed a further guarantee of an overdraft facility and, again, said he did so in reliance on another assurance from the regional manager by phone while he was travelling home with his wife. Mr Akrill said he was told the bank would not call it in and that that persuaded him to sign the guarantee.
The bank placed particular reliance on Clause 18 of the personal guarantees and the cases on similar provisions:
Finally, the signature pages of the guarantees warned Mr Akrill as follows:
Despite this wording, Mr Akrill said that in each case he signed the personal guarantee at his home and then sent it to the solicitor. He also maintained that the solicitor did not advise him on the contents of either document. There was no evidence before the court from the solicitor confirming or denying this testimony.
Refusing the bank summary judgment the Court of Appeal said the sharp conflict between the evidence or Mr Akrill and the regional manager could not be resolved without cross examination. The circumstances of the guarantees’ execution and witnessing also needed looking into further. Additionally the evidence of Mr Akrill’s wife that she overheard the conversation between Mr Akrill and the regional manager, needed to be taken into account. Mr Akrill’s case, though unlikely to succeed, was not wholly implausible.
Rates valuation officer not bound by Valuation Tribunal’s wrong facts
Once the Valuation Tribunal has decided a rateable value, that is the rateable value of the hereditament. The Valuation Officer (“VO”) cannot proceed on the basis that the rateable value is wrong, because that rateable value has been fix).
The way it can be established that such a rateable value is wrong is to make an appeal to the Upper Tribunal (or possibly by asking the Valuation Tribunal to review its own decision on the basis that it was reached on an erroneous understanding of the facts).
Unless a material change of circumstances provides a basis for a reconsideration of the entry in the list, the VO is bound to accept the entry whatever doubts he entertains about it, because his duty to maintain an accurate list exists inside a hierarchical framework of adjudication and appeal which he must respect.
It would undermine the whole system of appeals if the VO was entitled to impose his own view of the “correct” rateable value whenever he was satisfied that a Valuation Tribunal decision was wrong for whatever reason.
Even if out of time for an appeal a VO can appeal against the the Valuation Tribunal’s decision out of time. Such an appeal is not available, as of right, but first needs an application to the Upper Tribunal for an extension of the time for giving notice of appeal under rule 24(5) of .
That application will trigger a judicial determination which may or may not allow an appeal to proceed, but that process will take account both of the VO’s desire to maintain the accuracy of the list and of the public interest in finality, and respect the statutory adjudication scheme.
No such application was made in the Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber) Case of Mrics (Valuation Officer) Re: White Waltham Aerodrome [2014] which follows.
In 2005 the Berkshire Valuation Tribunal based the rates assessment of some aircraft hangars on an erroneous square meterage resulting in a low charge. The aircraft hangars each had an area of 910m2. But the Berkshire Tribunal decided that the area of each of the hangars was 217.9m2.
Then the ratepayer applied to the VO to add some offices to the hereditament. That resulted in a modest agreed increase.
When it came to preparing the draft 2010 revaluation the VO took the opportunity to correct the square meterage error resulting in a much higher assessment. The ratepayer tried to argue that the VO had not been entitled to reopen the low square meterage figure established by the 2005 Berkshire Valuation Tribunal. It also pointed out that some portacabins present in 2005 had left the site.
The Upper Tribunal (Lands Chamber) ruled that when the VO becomes aware of a material change of circumstances he is under a duty to alter the rating list to represent the new rateable value to reflect that change.
That gave effect to the VO’s duty to maintain an accurate list. The VO must value the hereditaSchedule 6 to the 1988 Act.
Contrary to the contentions of the ratepayer here,e VO is not restricted to adjusting the Valuation Tribunal’s determination by assessing the sum which must be added to or taken from the previous rateable value solely to reflect the impact of the material change, but is required to undertake the single valuation exercise of determining the rateable value of the hereditament as it now exists in light of those changed circumstances.
A mistake of fact made by the Valuation Tribunal need not be perpetuated and the VO is entitled to start from scratch, but giving appropriate weight to the Valuation Tribunal’s decision.
In most cases the starting point will be the original entry in the list, and the appropriate way to apply the statutory criteria, given the change of circumstances, would be to adjust the original figure. However, such valuation technique would be the means to implement the valuation criteria in paragraph 2 of Schedule 6, and NOT a substitute for those criteria.
However where it was obvious to the VO that the original entry in the list determined by the Valuation Tribunal was based on a mistaken understanding of the facts that would be an exceptional case entitling the VO to deviate from using the original entry in the list as his starting point.
But even if the Tribunal was wrong on this, the rateable value, which was altered by the VO on 29 October 2009, was not a rateable value determined by the Valuation Tribunal, but was rather the value agreed between the parties in July 2008, following the merger of the office building into the Airfield hereditament.
At that time the VO’s revaluation was a figure agreed by the parties, and represented the rateable value of a hereditament which, by the merger of the offices into the airfield, was itself materially different from the hereditament which had been valued by the Valuation Tribunal in its decision of 19 March 2008.
So in any event the 2010 revaluation, based on the corrected hangar square meterages, was actually an alteration to a rateable value in the rating list, which had resulted from an agreement between the VO and the ratepayer, and not from a Valuation Tribunal decision. So it did not, in any event, involve the constitutional and jurisdictional considerations which might have attended the VO interfering with a decision of the Valuation Tribunal.
So the VO’s appeal was allowed.

In the absence of evidence to show a different interein the assets is the same as the legal interest. The onus is on the person asserting the separation of legal and beneficial interests to prove it by convincing evidence.
In the High Court case of Thandi v Sands & Ors [2014] a son had become bankrupt in 2011. His father now alleged that the properties he owned were held by that son on bare trust for the father and so did not form part of the assets owned by the son beneficially as well as legally.

Determine the domain, range, and vertical asymptote f(x)=log(5)
CAN SOME ONE PLEASE HELP????????
Is that \[f(x)=log_5{(x+4)}\]?
Okay we know that we can't take the log(0) because it is undefined.
So the value for x where this occurs is our vertical asymptote.
->vertical asymptote occurs at -4
Now since we also can't have a log(-x) . The x values have to be greater that -4.
\[Domain: x \in \mathbb{R}:x > -4\]

Player Analysis: David Carmo
Portugal began their 2018 UEFA U-19 Euros adventure on July 16, taking on Norway in the Hietalahti Stadium in Vaasa, Finland. Despite missing several key players such as Diogo Dalot, João Félix, Diogo Leite, and Rafael Leão, Portugal came out victorious in their opening group stage match, as a Miguel Luís goal at the cusp of halftime was sandwiched between a brace from Braga winger Francisco Trincão, who took advantage of Félix’s decision to forego the tournament in order to train with the Benfica first team.
The following match, however, would deliver a cruel blow to Hélio Sousa’s side, as captain Diogo Queirós was sent off in the ninth minute for a dangerous last-ditch tackle on Moise Kean. Faced with a selection dilemma, Sousa decided to sub off Benfica winger João Filipe and bring on Braga center back Davide Carmo, but it was to little avail as Italy came out as victors by a 3-2 scoreline.
With Romain Correia and Carmo as their new center back pairing, Portugal coasted to victory whilst simultaneously keeping clean sheets against Finland and Ukraine, setting up a rematch with Italy in the Final. This time, however, Portugal prevailed 4-3 in extra time via goals from Trincão and Pedro Martello as well as a brace from João Filipe. Two years after hoisting the U-17 Euros in Azerbaijan, Portugal were once again the champions of Europe.
Carmo would have to wait another 18 months before getting his first senior opportunity at club level, replacing Raul Silva at halftime in an away match with FC Porto. Despite conceding a penalty to Otávio which Tiquinho Soares failed to convert, Braga came away as victors. He returned to action 12after Silva picked up a booking as Braga defeated s.
When Braga faced off against Sporting in their following match on February 2, Carmo was given his full debut on the left side of the back three, and his team picked up a 1-0 victory on the back of a late goal from Trincão and an impressive performance from Carmo, whon as Braga clinched third place and automatic progression to the Europa League group stage on the final matchday of the season after defeating champions Porto at home.
At 21 years old, Carmnter backs in Iberia for Carlos Carvalhal’s Braga, who currently sit third in the league table. It has been far from a straightforward path for Carmo, who began his development at local club Beira-Mar before joining Benfica’s academy in 2011. He would last just two years in Seixal being released due to his lack of height; now 6’5″ tall, Carmo towers over most Liga NOS strikers with a physicality that belies his tender age.
CarmoBraga’s academy at the age of 16. Whilst he received his first call-up to the first team on May 17, 2019,making his professional debut under Rúben Amorim. His performances quickly attracted attention from across Europe, with the likes of Fiorentina, Manchester United and Liverpool reportedly taking an interest in the Portuguese defender.
SC Braga – Building for a Title Challenge and a Brighter Future
After originally struggling to secure a permanent deal for Chris Smalling, Roma turned their attention to Carmo, offering a loan deal with an obligation to buy of €15 million in the summer of 2021. However, Braga rejected the Giallorossi’s offer for the 21-year-old, and just two months later, they renewed his contract until 2025, increasing his release clause to €40 million.
As a left-footed center back, Carmo is capable of breaking the lines and advancing the ball into the second phase of build-up thanks to his various attributes. Typically playing as the central defender in Carvalhal’s back three, Carmo is skilled at progressing possession thanks to his unique vision and ability to dribble forward and progress the ball through the lines with pinpoint passes.
In the above example, Carmo beats the pressure and takes out several lines of Benfica’s midfield and attack to find an attacker by the halfway line and instigate a foul.
Whilst Carmo has reached incredible levels at 21 years of age, there are still a few facets of his game that he must improve if he is to take the next step. Physically, he is a robust defender, but his bulky frame can often see him exposed against agile and quick strikers. He can struggle in terms of timing his tackle, either committing too early or waiting too long to make an intervention, and his aggressive style of defending can leave him vulnerable at times.
We saw an example of this in Braga’s friendly match against Benfica on September 2. Carmo overcommits and gets drawn out to the flank, allowing Pizzi to easily dribble past him and find Carlos Vinícius, who converts the equalizer.
One of the biggest reasons why teams like Liverpool and Roma are already registering interest in the Portuguese defender is his aerial ability. At 6’5″ and 181 lbs, he has what it takes to go up against the bulkiest, meanest strikers in Portugal and win aerial duels.
Whereas in the first example, Carmo positions himself well and nullifies a potential counterattack by beating Vinícius in the air and heading the ball out for a throw-in, we can get a glimpse of his aerial ability on the other side of the pitch in the below example.
Iuri Medeiros fires in a tempting corner kick into the center of the box, and Carmo attacks the space, barging his way past the Benfica defenders, but his header sails well above the post and goes out for a goal kick. Indeed, if he is to score his first goal at the senior level, he will need to improve the placement and timing of his headers on the training ground.
Carmo has been one of the biggest revelations in Portugal this season, providing solidity and impressive vision to a Braga side that is making a strong push for a Champions League spot — currently sitting one point behind second-place Porto. However, as the saying goes: what goes up, must come down.
Sérgio Conceição’s Porto paid a visit to the Estádio Municipal de Braga for the first leg of the Taça de Portugal semifinals. Mehdi Taremi opened the scoring early on against his former manager, capitalizing on an error from Braga goalkeeper Matheus and scoopie. Porto came close to adding a second but were held to a one-goal lead by a defiant Matheus. Then in the 65th minute, the unthinkable happened.
As Porto’s Luis Díaz sprinted down the left flank, Carmo attempted to intervene, but the Colombian winger’s shot was deflected by Matheus for a corner kick. It just so happened that a millisecond after his shot, Díaz’s boot caught Carmo’s ankle, leading to a controversial VAR-aided expulsion. Unable to continue, an ambulance entered the pitch to take him to the hospital, but after getting stuck in the mud, both Porto and Braga’s players were forced to push the ambulance off the field.
The entire ordeal led to 12 minutes of injury time, and Braga took advantage. After a heated scuffle, Mateus Uribe was sent off for headbutting Ricardo Esgaio; both Esgaio and André Horta received yellows for their roles in the altercation. In the 101st minute, Cristian Borja found Nicolás Gaitán at the edge of the box, and the Argentine’s cross made its way to Andraž Šporar, who, like Borja, joined Braga on February 1 as a makeweight in Sporting’s €16 million purchase of Paulinho.
Šporar’s header bounced off the post and rebounded into the path of Fransérgio Barbosa, who smashed home the equalizer. On March 3, the two sides will duel it out for their place in the Taça de Portugal Final, where they will face either Benfica or Estoril (Benfica won the first leg 3-1). Carmo, meanwhilankle.
🗣 @vitor_proeleven: “[David Carmo] can play with the ball, between the lines, he’s very fast and aggressive, so I think he will be a huge talent in the future. He has the mentality, the physicality, he’s got it all.”

David Carmo’s breakthrough season has come to a painful end in February, and he However, if he can dust off the cobwebs and recover his top form, Carmo will have a chance to stake a claim for his spot in the upcoming 2022 FIFA World Cup.
When football’s most hallowed tournament kicks off in Qatar, Pepe will be 39 years old, whilst José Fonte will be 38. After getting back to basics at Braga, Carmo will be looking to beat out the likes of Domingos Duarte and Rúben Semedo and win a spot alongside Rúben Dias in the heart of the Seleção’s defense.

I have a 15 year old daughter. 3 biopsies have been performed since the age of 10 out and a diagnosis of “lymphomatoid papulosis” was made. The papules appeared at different sites on her body: thighs, chest, shoulders, chin and cheeks. They reappear about every 2 or 3 months but in recent years have been appearing more frequently. The treatment consists of local infiltration with cortisone when the nodules are big, followed by 2.5mg tablets of methotrexate 3 times a week for 1 or 2 months. I would like to know if the disease will ever come to an end and where it comes from, how come my daughter has got it?Why can you only treat it when the nodules appear?Why is there no preventative treatment?

During the night and weekend hours, RAM, CPUs, and high-end video cards began disappearing from PCs in my company. The thief would shut down the units, pry open the cases, and remove the components. The next morning, users would discover the disassembled units.
Security guards patrol the facility, but because of its size and the large number of PCs, they can't watch all the computers at once. But the guards did have an idea about how to catch the thief. Users turn off their monitors at night to save energy, but many leave their PCs on to receive software pushes. The guards thought that they could apprehend the culprit if they were notified immediately when PCs were turned off. My team developed a Perl script that pings the running PCs and pages the guards when a PC is shut down.
Requirement 1: Ping a list of target PCs and notify the security guard when a PC fails the ping test.
Considerations: We could have written this code in Windows shell script or one of several other languages, but we chose Perl because it has very low CPU overhead. The script will read from input files, and Perl is efficient for this type of operation.
Solution: Use the Perl modules Net::Ping for the ping test and Mail::Sendmail for the email and pager notifications. Possibly break the code into paging and testing subroutines.
Solution: Create a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file, and use Perl's split function to split the line into PC name and location elements. Verify that this input file exists, and exit with an error message if it doesn't.
Requirement 3: The page-recipient list will change, so it must be easily modified.
Requirement 4: Record ping failures—including time, PC name, and failure-incident details—in a log file.
Solution: Create an output file for logging ping failures. Use the file-creation date and time as part of the log filename. Log ping-failure incidents—including time, PC name, and incident details—to the file.
Considerations: When the script starts, it should ping all the nodes during an initialization run, then use this list for the testing period. The next time the script runs, it should delete this temporary list and create a new one.
Requirement 6: When an online PC goes offline, send a page only once to indicate the offline condition. If the PC comes back online, send an "all clear" page.
Requirement 7: Minimize false alarms while providing quick detection and notification.
Solution: If the first ping of a node fails, ping the node again. Page only after a second ping failure.
Optional Feature 1: Indicate in the page the likelihood of a real incident. A theft is more likely to be in progress if several PCs are offline than if only one PC is offline.
Considerations: We're already tracking whether machines are online or offline. We would just need to count the number of offline machines to assess the risk level.
Solution: Count the number of failed nodes on the Perl list created to meet Requirement 6. If the list has one node, the risk is low; if two nodes, medium; if three or more nodes, high.
Optional Feature 2: When a potential incident is detected, shift detection into a sensitive mode.
After we considered the requirements and optional features and arrived at solutions, we knew what resources we needed to write the script. As determined in Requirement 1, we needed Perl and its Net::Ping and Mail::Sendmail modules.
TheftDetector.pl
To meet the security guards' requirements, we wrote TheftDetector.pl. Listing 2, page 49, shows all of TheftDetector.pl's code lines but omits some comment lines for space reasons. We've developed a template to use in laying out Perl scripts. At the beginning of a script, we put the Use statements that identify the modules that the script uses. We add Title and Color commands to customize the command-shell window if we'll run the script interactively. In header comments, we include author contact information, date written, version, usage syntax, operation, required Perl modules, input and output file information, and examples of any configuration options.
We try to modularize our code into subroutines. Often, we can recycle these subroutines in future scripting projects. For example, now that we've written a subroutine that sends email messages and pages, we can recycle it in future scripts that require email and pager notifications. Code recycling saves time and money and yields a better script. If in the future we identify a better way to accomplish a task, we can write a new subroutine and incorporate it into previously written scripts that perform that task.
The Page subroutine uses the Mail::Sendmail module to send the email message or page to an email-addressable alpha pager or other device. Help for this module is available both in the notes within the sendmail.pm file that PPM installs and at.
We tested TheftDetector.pl on servers and workstations running Win2K and Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 5 (SP5) and SP6 and ActivePerl 5.6.1, build 623. Always test any script carefully in a nonproduction environment before deploying it.^^^^ ^^^

Despite the impact of the heat wave in Turkey, hopes are high for the Turkish pomegranate season, with growth in East Asia continuing to encourage exporters in the country.
Exporter Alanar kicked off the pomegranate season in mid-October with the first harvest of the Wonderful variety in its own orchards in Manisa and Antalya.
The company has been exporting Wonderful pomegranates for many years, in addition to the most popular variety in the country, Hicaz, which it sources from certified growers in Turkey.
A, Turkish pomegranate prices are currently stable, remaining highly competitive vis a vis their Spanish counterparts.
Due to the effect of the extreme weather this year, volumes have been lower in the company's orchards, he said. However, demand has thankfully stayed strong.
For years, Alanar has sent its pomegranates to markets in western Europe, North America and East Asia, but it is the latter that is experiencing the most dynamic growth.

Estonia wants to give homosexuals more equal rights. At the moment, a group consisting of representatives of four parties in the Estonian parliament are working on a legal partnership.
It is expected that the bill on civil partnership will be ready before summer, which means that the first couples will enter into a legal commitment with a ceremonial marriage in July. These legal partnerships will not only be open to homosexual couples, but also to straight couples. The bill will pass, as the government is of the opinion that not enough people are getting married in Estonia, and also because more homosexual couples feel the need for equal rights.

Fly Those Flags Proudly!
Tomorrow is the 4th of July.
Just like many other businesses, Great Lakes Energy takes pride in displaying the American flag. In fact, if you noticed our Facebook post on Flag Day (June 14), you saw photos taken by our employees of flags at five of our locations.
We display the American flag as a symbol of unity. Although our membership, scattered over 26 counties in west Michigan, is as diverse as you can find, we stand together under that flag as a reminder of the cooperative difference that’s part of the fabric of America. We’re a business born from a group of Americans who marched to Washington, D.C., 80 years ago and returned with the means of bringing electricity to their rural population when no one else would. If that’s not a show of unified strength and independence, we don’t know what is.
Displaying our nation’s flag is important to us for other reasons, too. First, we have our share of veterans who are either GLE employees or employees of contractors who work for us. We’re proud to employ veterans.
Next, by flying the flag, we mean to honor not only employees and members who are veterans, but also their family members. Visit our Boyne City lobby and you’ll see a photo featuring two U.S. Marines who are children of GLE members. We respect the sacrifices of not only those who serve(d), but the family members who love and support them. We know the cost on both sides. We fly our flag for them all.
So Happy Independence Day to everyone! (Yes, we’re closed July 4.) Celebrate, but please be safe and responsible. Thanks for being our members.

Assamese Book Publishing takes a hit Compared to English, other Languages
Harshita Himatsingka | March 02, 2019 12:58 hrs
GUWAHATI: The publication of Assamese books, mainly fiction and literature, has taken a hit in comparison to the publication of books in other languages such as English or Hindi. This applies to both within the state and in the country.
“Since two-three years, the publication of Assamese books has significantly come down. Earlier, sales were good but now our best-selling book is the Hindi-to-Assamese dictionary,” said a salesman from a bookstore in Pan Bazar that only keeps books (fiction, literature, academic) in Assamese.
Speaking at the Press Club in Guwahati recently, senior journalist DN Chakravarty said that while publication of books in English and Hindi have increased in India, the rate of publication of Assamese books is very low when compared to English, Hindi, Bengali and south Indian languages.
“The market for Assamese writers has diminished and so publication has declined as well. There is lesser margin for them and thus, demand has also decreased,” said the salesman from Pan bazar.
One of the main reasons for this diminishing market is that students in English-medium schools now don’t opt to study Assamese if they are given a choice to study another language, according to a saleswoman who owns a bookshop in Pan Bazar.
“Even if the children are Assamese, born and brought up here (Assam), since they don’t learn Assamese in school, they don’t know how to read and write the language. So the demand is continuously decreasing. If one e page, how will books in that language sustain?” she questioned, saying that it was a rather sad thing to witness.
While Chakravarty said that in terms of comparative contemporary Indian literature, the most number of books in the country are being published in English and Hindi, while south Indian languages have now surpassed Bengali, which used to dominate India’s book market throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, owing to the fact that Bengal produced some of the best writers in the country.
He however added that important monthly magazines such as ‘Awahan’ and ‘Ramdhenu’ have produced a number of Assamese writers, including several women writers who could give even some of the more-literature-rich-languages in the world a run for their money.
“It’s not like Assamese literature and fiction are dying, but the numbers have significantly gone down. Some people still come in and ask for books by popular authors like Anuradha Sharma Pujari, Rita Choudhury etc but it’s difficult to sell books of new writers. I have to push them to people, give the story and hype it up a little bit to make those sales,” said the saleswoman.
Another complaint that publishers and book-sellers in the city had regarding the declining number of Assamese publications is that the online market is ruining the scene. Since people now mostly buy many things online, they are spoilt for choice and an Assamese title is probably their last choice.
“One of the saddest things however is that readers have decreased overall, irrespective of any language they read in.
Earlier, people used to read. Nowadays, people are mostly glued to their phones all the time, especially the younger generation. They don’t have a book in their hand, but a screen,” said the saleswoman.
In contrast to this, Assamese academic books are not faring so badly. Since there are certain books that have to be published in Assamese, such as Assamese grammar and language texts, they are still doing well in the market.
“Since Assam is not a very city-based place, for a lot of the regional schools here, their main language of learning is Assamese. Thus, the academic Assamese books sell. The strength of the language still exists, even though it might be less in some cases because of English or Hindi,” said a leading publisher from the city.
He added that in a lot of the other northeastern states, English has become very popular and they are losing their regional language, but that it is not the case in Assam. At least, not in terms of academic books. “They still sell,” he said.
He also mentioned that since they have more books in English, if a certain title does well with the English crowd, they also try and take out a translated version of the said title in Assamese.

In this section we’ve searched for a mixture of steam train breaks and full holidays. In the listing, they are presented in order of increasing price, with typically the breaks being the cheapest and the full holidays at the top end of the price range.
The shortest train journey breaks are simply weekend ones and the longest holidays are around 7 days, although some of the luxury train holidays also allow you to buy inclusive extras and to arrange your own breaks in the journey, rejoining the train to return on a later date.
Once you start looking at train journeys in the weekend breaks and full holidays category, they start to include a variety of visits to places and events along the way; after all it would be pretty boring to just stay in a train while you were passing interesting areas.
These train holidays take you to all corners of the UK on both main railway lines and in particular for the steam train breaks, on many of the best restored heritage lines, in England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
For example in the north of England you can find steam train breaks that run using the North York Moors Railway and the Settle to Carlisle railway line, while also giving new plenty of time to visit places of interest such as Hadrian's Wall, Lindisfarne, Bamburgh castle, Alnwick Gardens, York and the National Railway Museum.
Further north you can experience rail holidays around the Scottish Highlands, through the Cairngorms on the West Highland Railway, combined with visits to the island of Skye and rides on the Isle of Mull Railway. On one trip you can also enjoy a ride on the Jacobite Steam Train, following some of the route used in Harry Potter over the Glenfinnan viaduct on the route from Fort William to Mallaig.
In Wales there are historic railway lines that have been fully functioning for years using narrow gauge steam trains. Here you can find train journey breaks during which for instance you can travel up Mount Snowdon on its specially designed track, travel on the West Highland Railway and take the Blaenau Ffestiniog line along picturesque valleys. While you are there you can also enjoy trips to places like Portmeirion and Carlisle castle to make up your rail holiday.
Moving across to Ireland there are various rail tours to take you to a selection of some of the best-known tourist areas including Dublin city tour, a visit to Blarney Castle or an event-based holiday visiting the Waterford tall ships event.
Further south in Norfolk you can find several steam railways such as the North Norfolk (Poppy) line and the Bure Valley Railway, which form part of a rail holiday including visits to the seaside, stately homes, cathedrals and even cruise along the Norfolk Broads for a quieter part of your holiday.
Near the south coast there are rail tours around the new Forest in Dorset including visits to Corfe Castle and Bournemouth's seafront, with rides on the steam hauled Swanage Railway.
Going further west towards the English Riviera, you can steam along on the Paignton and Dartmouth railway, stopping for a cruise along the River Dart and a visit to the famous Eden project, while also fitting in various visits to the scenic harbours in that part of the world.

I got the idea for this when I wrote my article "Attack of the Sprocket Monsters" for last years Japanese Giants version of Famous Monsters of Filmland, and a slight conversation with a fboxes and posters. That was all the inspiration I needed!It features many of the greatest monsters of all time, Godzilla, Rodan, the Creature and more!

“14Do all things without grumbling or disputing; 15so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world, 16holding fast the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I will have reason to glory because I did not run in vain nor toil in vain. 17But even if I am being poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and share my joy with you all. 18You too, I urge you, rejoice in the same way and share your joy with me.” Philippians 2:14-18
Ouch. In a world full of trouble, the first emotion which bubbles up is discontent, which sets us to grumbling.
It’s also the very first impulse of the flesh which we must fight against, so as to prove ourselves blameless and innocent, children of God.
To complain is human. To …uhm…uncomplain (?) is divine.
Paul had been stoned, jailed, shipwrecked, been an outcast from his own people, had known sickness and infirmity with that thorn in his side, but he lived to Praise God and share the Gospel. Further on in Philippians we find:

To: The Society of the Double Dagger
Ahoy! Below, you'll find an item for your calendar, a brief report from the road, and this year's gift guide.
Winter Scenery, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, ca. 1599-1614
I've scheduled my annual reading of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight for New Year's Day. As longtime readers/viewers know, this has bounced around the calendar a bit, but last year, we made a discovery: January 1st is perfect. The reading will start at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. GMT.
I'll mention it again in late December, but I invite you to make a note on your calendar now, perhaps including a link to the page.
(Am I going to beat the super-stylish new Green Knight film, now much-delayed, to market? I think I might…)
Here are the things I saw this season, hauling olives for Fat Gold across a respectable fraction of California's length:
Rice paddies, flooded, smooth as glass, dotted with birds: herons, cranes, snow geese, anonymous little dark-feathered dudes.
Walnut orchards and almond orchards, easy to distinguish: the walnut trees are prettier; the almond trees always look a bit surprised.
I saw nut processing facilities overtopped by tawny mountains, easily three or four stories tall—mountains made of almond shells! From a distance, you'd be sure they were sand dunes.
I saw oil fields: a wide zone of extraction straddling a state highway, everything dingy and dead on both sides, Mordor-like. The pumpjacks with their rocking action looked cartoony to me, but I suppose that's just because I've mostly seen them in cartoons.
I saw aqueducts, many of them, all beautiful. Wide ribbons of water cased in concrete; I'd love to paddle along in a kayak. (I suspect this is extremely not allowed.) California is a cornucopia, absolutely overflowing with production, and this plumbing makes that possible.
On these drives, I found my sense of "urban" and "rural" c"rural"? They're as busy as a factory floor. Very often they run 24/7.
The hilltop olive mill north of Nevada City with no cell reception for miles, okay, that was rural. I'm not sure about anywhere else. almost all.) It's difficult—maybe impossible—to really grasp that; you can't hold the world in your head. Better to acknowledge the difficulty, though, than succumb to the abstractions.
I saw so many beautiful scenes on the road. I wanted to take pictures, but I was driving, always in a hurry, ten or twelve tons of olives in the belly of the truck behind me. So, I just looked, and resolved to remember.
ca. 1565'm… they're still great!
Also, I acknowledge that it's mostly books and food.
That's because gifts should be mostly books and food.
Does this guide feel like it's arriving a bit early? Well, shopping for gifts carries an extra sense of urgency in 2020. Maybe you know this already: small retail and retail-adjacent businesses depend on the final months of the year, the holiday surge, to balance their accounts and nudge them into profitability, or even just sustainability. No indie bookstore in the country could survive without November and December; this year, that's especially true. Exponentially true.
The glint of hopethe science fiction novel that makes peace, at least, with the infodump. There are sections of this book that read almost like nonfiction, the author simply explaining something—about ecology or economics, maybe, or the physics of polar ice, always with verve, but still, just explaining. In tone and format, it's really very strange; for me, it totally worked.
I discussed Min my last newsletter and I will recommend it now as a gift. The juxtaposition of Maria's modern cadence with the ancient material works as a kind of chemical reaction, and the book overflows with energy; it's so much fun to read, and to speak aloud. Here's a passage, chosen nearly at random:
Nothing like Modthryth, oh shit, remember her?
Bro, if anyone even looked at her in daylight,
save her own overlord, she'd deal that man death—
order him bound, each shackle tightened to torture,
his sentence resounding from on high: sword-selection,
then the entertainment, a public flaying, arteries spurting,
gore, good riddance. She may have been beautiful,
Why the brutality?!
Toshi Omagari's Arcade Game Typography is a compendium of vintage video game alphabets, every page packed with incredible solutions to totally unreasonable technical and typographical problems. If you know someone who is interested in both video games and graphic design—a not-uncommon overlap—then, this right here: this is the gift. Trust me.
A book with the title Arcade Game Typography did not have to be—was perhaps not likely to be—trenchant, hilarious, and inspiring, but Omagari's book is all those things and more.
Craig Mod's Kissa by Kissa is a dream of a book: carefully composed, lavishly produced, accordingly priced. This is the kind of book so incredibly, unapologetically specific (a "kissa" is a Japanese pizza-toast cafe) that it punches through into something universal and thrilling.
It's an independent production, with Craig himself not only capturing the images and writing the text but laying out the pages, choosing the paper, coordinating the delivery of a print run of (so far) only about 2,000 copies. If you know a Japanophile, or someone who simply loves extremely well-made books, they will appreciate this artifact. They'll feel, like I do, lucky that it reached them in the universe.
The aside; the imperative
Remember: when you buy books this season, you must buy them from indie bookstores. (Craig's book is the exception; you can only buy it from Craig.) Ideally, you already have a favorite, proximate to you; maybe it's open for cautious in-person shopping, or maybe it's offering curbside pickup, even local deliveries.
If you don't have a local favorite, allow me to recommend the Raven Book Store of Lawrence, Kansas. Besides being a terrific shop in its own right, the Raven has become a real banner-bearer for indie bookselling writ large. They'll happily ship you a book or six, and don't miss the merch. I've got one of these stickers on my laptop:
Now, back to the gift guide. Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't show you
Fat Gold is the olive oil company I run with my partner Kathryn Tomajan. We offer a subscription that consists of four tins of California extra virgin olive oil, each different, delivered over the course of a year. Each tin comes with a label that's actually a magnet that you can keep and save. It's fun.
We also offer individual tins, shipped anywhere in the U.S. These 500 ml containers are compact but dense—they weigh about a pound—so they feel satisfyingly substantial inside festive wrapping paper 😎
My friends and neighbors at INNA Jam make the best jam in the country, and it is available in gift packs, so, there you go: your season is sorted. In addition to my most-favored jam flavors, Santa Rosa plum and Blenheim apricot, I also love INNA's shrubs, perfect for mixing with soda or… things that are stronger… than soda…
This year, INNA is also offering super cute hand-knit toys, and, I mean, just look at this octopus. May we all be so serene. May we all sit atop our body weight in jam.
The Daybreak Seaweed Company's nori and wakame flakes improve just about anything, especially eggs. (A fried egg with nori flakes…? Yes, you want that.) Daybreak sources some of its seaweed from a cool aquaculture operation in Alaska; the balance is hand-harvested from the California surf. Seaweed is really really (really really) good for you, and if it's not part of your diet already, it ought to be.
The decolonizers
I think there's something lovely and timeless about giving spices as gifts. That sense comes, in part, from their past preciousness: upon which empires were founded. Those empires were extractive; violent. So, there's like… something to unpack here, and the Oakland spice company Diaspora can help us do it. They are engineering a "decolonized" supply chain,
Diaspora's got turmeric. They've got cumin. Everybody needs cumin, so how about getting it from a company that, bit by bit, is trying to repair the world, rather than the other way around?
One of my favorite quasi-icebreakers goes like this: "If you had a magic faucet in your kitchen and it could dispense anything—so long as that thing is plausibly dispensable by faucet—what would it be?"
It works surprisingly well as a personality test. Some people say "gasoline," so they could bottle it up and sell it off; some people say "wine," so they could enjoy it endlessly; and some people are me, so they say: "hummus."
Maureen Abood Market (based in Michigan!) has an entire section labeled "smooth hummus," the keystone of which is their skinless chickpeas, a product I've never seen anywhere else. These chickpeas really do make a difference; I say that as someone who produces a lot of hummus (but does not have it dispensed from a faucet) (yet).
FYI: the world's best hummus recipe.
Earlier in this email, I talked about California's cornucopia, and nowhere is that presented better than Enzo's Table, a one-stop shop for all the fruits of the San Joaquin Valley.
Their almond butter is my favorite, and this year they have a special autumn spice edition, doped with turmeric and more; it is uncommonly good and apparently in very short supply. There's also Fresno chili olive oil, shocking red, made by tossing bins of whole chilis right into the mill with the olives; this substance improves a slice of pizza in ways you cannot imagine. (Kathryn works at the Enzo mill, and she says last year's batch of chili olive oil, which is what you'll be receiving when you order, is the best they've ever made.)
I also tried Enzo's new biscotti a couple of weeks ago and—I know this sounds hyperbolic, but—it is easily the best biscotti I've ever had. There's really no reason not to just load up your cart here. What a great company. What a great state.
Redfield Cider is one of the many, many small businesses for whom the pandemic has been existential. I've found it impressive and inspiring to watch co-founders Mike and Olivia find a path forward; "cross the river by feeling the stones," etc.
Cider is underappreciated in the U.S.—there's a whole story here, about how Prohibition broke the back of American cider production and it never really recovered, not until the last decade or so—and Redfield has helped me rediscover and re-appreciate it. You can purchase bottles (not only of cider, but wine and beer, too) and have them delivered locally in the East Bay or shipped across California.
Eve's Albee Hill is my favorite American cider.
You cannot go wrong with any of the Bordelet ciders from Normandy; all-around, they are probably my favorites in the world.
I got the South Hill Pommeau once: sweet and tart and strong (but not too strong), perfect for sipping from a tiny glass in a warm room.
If you've never tried a fountain pen, it's really worthwhile. Maybe when you think "fountain pen," you think "fussy" and "precious" and "messy"—but you can get a fountain pen that's sporty and plasticky and practical, too. "Small in the pocket, great in the hand!" I definitely do not write with one of these pens every day, but I love having them around.
Even if I can't talk you into trying a Kaweco, you should still hop over to JetPens and just, like, click wildly. It's truly one of the great online shops: vast but/and specific. For a certain kind of person (you know who you are) JetPens is a version of heaven.
If you're like me, you have a lot of T-shirts, and wearing them over time—choosing one each morning, maybe one more than the rest, maybe much more than the rest—becomes a slow but sure ranking; the way pebbles tumble and sort themselves on a riverbed. That process has made it clear: Claire L. Evans' ENIAC Six tee is my current favorite.six femaley're known to history as the ENIAC Six. I always thought that'd make a killer all-girl punk band name.
As of this writing, the T-shirt is available at a discount with the coupon code CYBORG. Get one for a computer history fan, or for yourself.
The most 2020 gift of all
AirPop masks are the nicest I've encountered this year; they have a clean, neutral look, and they filter smoke as well as aerosols, an important West Coast consideration. Confession: I actually can't wear them—they are slightly too small for my face, so if you are likewise a large person, look elsewhere—but/and Kathryn loves them, and several other friends endorse them, too.
Is is too dystopian to give someone you love a pack of high-end masks as a gift? I don't know… I think it might be nice.
The Adoration of the Magi in the Snow, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, ca. 1563
(Did you know Pieter Bruegel the Younger produced his own version of the painting above? Did you know it's totally not as good?)
I've been grateful for all the Fat Gold production work this past (turbulent) month; it has made the world feel big, rather than small. For as much as we here in the United States have been cooped up; for as much as our attention is focused now on a greasy trickle of malfeasance: the world is out there, waiting. With a vaccine, with a new president, with caution and care—crossing the river by feeling the stones—we'll fill it up again.

The botanical name of curled mustard greens is Brassica juncea.
The botanical name of komatsuma is Brassica campestris.
I have several mustard greens and collard greens that are well beyond the young tender stage. Are they still good to eat?
How can I be sure that what I have in my back yard is really Mustard greens/or Wintercress and that it is safe to eat?
If you are unsure of the plant growing in your garden and want definitive identification, take several full leaves (and flowers if available) to the nearby Cooperative Extension Service. An agronomist will identify it for you.
Red mustard and green mustard are both members of the Brassica or cabbage family. The flavor of red mustard is sometimes described as zesty. The flavor of green mustard is sometimes described as mild.

Why talk of Rashford's Reds departure is wide of the mark Add more fuel to the fire that Mourinho is washed up, outdated and his management style is a thing of the past.
During his United tenure, in its third instalment now, multiple players have been subject to the intense debate: Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial, Eric Bailly, Victor Lindelof, hell all the centre-backs and, most notably, Paul Pogba have all faced questions over how the Portuguese handles them.
Fresh from two goals in as many games on international duty, many were quick to draw conclusions that the Mourinho bully/talent destroyer theories have more than a semblance of truth to them. The arguments have been flooding in – Southgate is maximising the potential yet to be found by Mourinho, Rashford needs to be tried more centrally and, most bizarrely, Rashford has to leave United to realise his potential.
Of course, Rashford's cause has not been helped as he chose to react to Phil Bardsley's wild lash out and confrontation, leading to a three game ban effective from this weekend. This supposedly stemmed from an inauspicious start to the season and lack of game time. I'm sure your answer would be emphatic in the negative.that Rashford is still a mere 20 years old with the world still at his feet, despite already clocking over 100 appearances and 30 goals for United?
Shortened memories are a classic symptom of football living in the here and present, but remember the times Ferguson had to juggle two lots of world-class striker quartets in Cole, Yorke, Sheringham, Solskjaer and Rooney, Ronaldo, Berbatov and Tevez? If those are two of the most painstaking headaches to remedy in possibly footballing history, how much of a hardship is biding your time and learning from the likes of Lukaku and Sanchez and vying with best mate Lingard and equal wunderkind in Martial?
Every squad has a dilemma of this kind year in year out- you don't hear Arsenal creating rumblings because one of Aubameyang or Lacazette play out wide, Gabriel Jesus having to leave City when Aguero starts as the sole striker and the boat isn't exactly rocked at Chelsea, where Olivier Giroud has to be content with a role on the bench.
Top teams require strength in depth and Rashford's time will undoubtedly come this season and in the years to come.
! Notice how no former United players believe Rashford should be agitating for a move anytime soon. That speaks volumes. We are talking Schneiderlin, Memphis to name a couple. The reality is once Mourinho doesn't trust a player they are out of the door.
Gareth Southgate has moved to further extinguish any lingering concern from United's perspective by declaring, in quotes featured on Sky Sports, that Mourinho actually 'thinks the world' of Rashford.
Yes, Mourinho called him 'naïve' after his confrontation with Bardsley. The fact of the matter is that indeed he was. You should know, as a player especially if you make any sort of contact with your head, it should be a red card. No doubt many will have seen the interview and criticised Mourinho for calling him out in public, but the comments were hardly inflammatory and the player should know the gravity of his actions to refrain from any reaction.? After all, he's living the dream we all had as a kid.
Jesse Lingard, his brother in arms, made a worthy point on social media on Rashford's account after his moment of madness, it's all part of the learning process. Rashford will surely learn from the events at Turf Moor and come back stronger for it. It did appear to just be a momentary meltdown from a man so normally mild-mannered.
Don't let that blemish sway your opinions on Rashford…

Dandruff is a skin condition that causes a dry, scaly scalp, and the skin falls off in white flakes. It is similar to seborrheic dermatitis but less severe. fungal infection, scalp oil production, genetics, immune system, stress, and more. The most effective dandruff treatments are anti-dandruff or ketoconazole.
If so, you are not alone. Dandruff is very common, and, despite the old wives’ tale, it is not due to not washing your hair. Here we will discuss the manyose pesky white flakes.
In seborrheic dermatitis, the skin condition affects more than just the scalp—the face, behind the ears, and the upper chest can also be involved. When it occurs on the scalp of infants, it is commonly called a “cradle cap.” In addition, visible skin inflammation, redness, and itching are common in seborrheic dermatitis. Typically, you don’t have skin inflammation with dandruff (Borda, 2015).
The skin fungus Malassezia lives on the skin of people both with and without dandruff. However, people with dandruff seem to be more sensitive to the fungus. Studies found that the Malassezia fungus causes a breakdown in the skin barrier of the scalp and triggers an inflammatory response and the characteristic flaking (Borda, 2015).
As mentioned, dandruff is related to seborrheic dermatitis, and it turns out that both conditions are affected by the oiliness of your skin. You have oil glands (sebaceous glands) in the skin over most of your body, but you produce the most oil (sebum) in the scalp, face, and chest (Borda, 2015).
The amount of sebum that your sebaceous glands produce is also related to hormonal changes. This goes along with the age-related pattern seen in dandruff. Your sebum production increases in puberty and into your 20s and then decreases after age 30–60, mirroring the pattern of dandruff appearance (Borda, 2015).
One theory is that the increased oil in some people with dandruff makes it easier for the Malassezia fungus to grow (Borda, 2015).
The incidence seems to dandruff found in African Americans (81–95%) followed by 66–82% in Caucasians and 30–42% in those of Chinese descent (Borda, 2015).
Dandruff is also seen in higher frequencies in pe/AIDS. P like traumatic brain injury are more likely to have dandruff (Borda, 2015).
Symptoms may get worse in the winter when your skin is drier (Ranganathan, 2010).
Salicylic acid: Salicylic acid decreases scaling and prevents skin cells from clumping together to form flakes, allowing them to wash away.
Sulfur: Sulfur works by preventing skin cell clumping and via its antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Zinc pyrithione (sometimes called pyrithione zinc): Zinc pyrithione helps dandruffmprove sebum production.
Tar: Coal tar shampoos decrease flakes by slowing how quickly your scalp cells die and turnover. By reducing flakes, they may also decrease Malassezia colonization.
If one shampoo doesn’t work for you, try one with a different active ingredient. Sometimes a shampoo will work for a few weeks and then lose its effectiveness. Again, trying a different type of dandruff shampoo may help.
Home remedies have not been studied as extensively as the anti-dandruff shampoos and scalp treatments. Some popular optiond stress reduction (Borda, 2015).
Shampoo regularly—especially if you have oily hair—to decrease the oil build-up. However, if you over-shampoo, you will strip your scalp of the necessary oils, and you can develop dry skin along with an itchy, flaky scalp. According to the AAD, if you have dandruff and are Caucasian or Asian, shampooing daily and using dandruff shampoo twice a week may be beneficial. If you have dandruff and are African-American, limit shampooing to once a week using a dandruff shampoo (AAD, n.d.). Thampooing.
Limit your hair care products, as they can build up in your hair and scalp, increasing skin oiliness.

along with this dish before realising my maw was too small - but couldn't resist this recipe I'd seen in a Malaysian pork belly (yes, it's nothing but pork belly recipes) cook book.
I'm glad I did because it was lovely. There was texture by the bucket load, with slimy shittaki, gelatinous belly and the slight chew of the stomach all battling it out. I'd not noticed the large volume of pepper in the recipe prior to cooking but it ended up sharing a lot of the pepper warmth that the aforementioned soup does. White pepper definitely has an affinity with
the stomach, it probably helps masks some of the offalliness too, something I don't really notice in the taste but something that was apparent in the kitchen odour after two hours of simmering.
Pork Belly with Pig Stomach and Chinese Mushroom, serves 4 with other dishes
300gr pig stomach/maw (cleaned and cooked, see note below)
5 dried Chinese mushrooms, soaked
2 ts light soy
1 ts dark soy
Dice the pork belly and then blanch in boiling water, drain and discard the water.
Slice the mushrooms into big slices - halved will do unless they're really big - and cut the stomach into bite size pieces.
Remove and give a good wash under a running tap.
If there is any visible fat trim it off and then bring to the boil in fresh water. Simmer for 2 hours - 2 hours 15 if you're going to be stir frying and not braising the stomach - and it's ready for the recipe.
Recent Comments </s> She said "Oh, boy!! Sounds yummy".
Since not everyone can eat a whole pan of baklava, when I found this recipe over at the Food Network, I had a recipe she & I could live with.
One box of filo cups consists of 15 shells and the recipe was written for two boxes, I halved the ingredients and got to work.
Because I am a huge cheesecake baker, there is always a minimum of 4 bricks of low fat cream cheese in my fridge. They have a long shelf life so since I make tend to be a bad girl and bake 1 cheesecake a month, I had no excuse but to use the leftover filling on, you guessed it, a cheesecake.
One recipe on the Internet looked promising except for the filo crust. When something has to bake for an hour, tender parts will brown quickly (let's face it I was afraid I would burn the damn thing).
I sent a nice piece to work for my taste tester/single guy who doesn't cook person to let me know what he thought.
If you want to wow someone with a very unique cheesecake, make this version. You will be happy my niece wanted to taste baklava.
