The Judge makes me want to be a better dad. Like a sequence out of the Old Testament (the feud between Jacob and Esau, the favoritism toward Joseph and its consequences), the screenplay by Nick Schenk (Gran Turino) digs into the family dynamics of the Palmer family in Carlinsville, Indiana, upon the death of the matriarch. Successful trial attorney Hank Palmer (Robert Downey, Jr.) returns home to pay his respects, but ends up embroiled in a small-town murder trial when his father, the Honorable Judge Joseph Palmer (Robert Duvall), is tried for the hit-and-run of a convicted murderer. While the story follows a John Grisham-like process through the investigation and trial (thanks to a solid delivery by Billy Bob Thornton as the state’s prosecutor), it ultimately comes down to family and what it means to reconcile. I’m rarely offended by vocabulary in a film, but The Judge seemed intent to beat us with the bombastic way that the Palmers interact with each other, as well as with the judge’s other sons (Vincent D’Onofrio and Jeremy Strong). These men have made a living and a life out of their use of words, but when it comes to each other, they are mean spirited, stubborn, and vicious. It’s clear in their ability to ignore each other and to scream at each other, and it stems from several situations in their past that are gradually drawn out through the course of the movie. But love? Love appears to have nothing to do with this! Love does have something to do with the side story about Hank and his high school sweetheart, Samantha (Vera Farmiga), and the way that each of them has seen love and lost it through the time since they parted. Samantha tells Hank that there are stories (lies, really) we tell ourselves to feel better, and he asks her what lies she would tell him– it’s a moment when we can recognize that, for all the words spoken by a Palmer, there is so much left unsaid and unanswered in the course of their lives. There’s a divisiveness to their family because of what they don’t talk about even as they seem to talk, yell, and argue so much. The film itself blends humor (it’s a terribly funny movie at times) and some of our most serious experiences (the death of a parent, care for the aging, divorce, parenthood, etc.) into a story that touches on it all. Unfortunately, it’s a little choppy; it may actually try to do too much in the course of its two-hour-plus run time. But it’s ultimately a deeply effective movie in getting us to think about our own relationships with parents, spouses, and children. (Moments after the film was over, the group I went with stood speechless in a circle, unsure where to begin!) The truth is that everything would have been different if one of the two Palmers at the center of our story would’ve been willing to budge, but both of them believe that the other has committed great offense to them, that anger is the appropriate response to what holds them apart. The reality is that we are often too proud to be the first one to admit we made a mistake. Walking away from the theater, I wanted to hug my kids tighter, and be less critical; I wanted to tell my wife I love her, and that we’re in it for the long haul. To me, that’s a successful film, if it can make you think, and process, and forgive. That’s story, scriptural or cinematic, and it’s the lifeblood of the lessons we learn and the hope we have for change.

It was a slow start to today with the Squad having the day off, so besides fielding calls all morning from Jared [Waearea-Hargreaves] on whether or not our Dally M outfits were going to clash, I took it pretty easy. Obviously it's extremely important as an athlete to look after yourself, making rest days just as vital as any, and we all have our own routines. As I've got older and played more and more, I've learnt the importance of really taking care of your body. I obviously had my back problems for a couple of seasons and so these days for me are hugely imperative in terms of getting through my stretches, resting up and going through that cycle throughout the day. We're also very fortunate to have massage available these days and so I jumped in the car mid-morning and headed into Roosters HQ for one. You can't argue when the only thing you're heading into work is a massage, can you?! After massage I did the rounds upstairs at HQ and checked in with how the staff are going this week. It's a huge week for not only the players of an NRL Club, when you feature in a Grand Final, and I must say that we're very fortunate to have as hard a working group as we do here at Moore Park. They were all in the office on Sunday morning last week and I don't think I've seen any of them anywhere else other than their desks so far this week, so if they're reading then a huge thank you must go to Brian Canavan and his side of the building and Ted Helliar and his team. We really are a Club at the Roosters, it's so far from just the 17 guys that take to the field each weekend, and that's something that in 2013 that has really helped us turn this place around. Brian, Ted and most important Robbo are huge on us being one big family here at the Roosters and it's showed throughout 2013 that this is a place people really want to be. So, to those working just as hard as the boys are, thank you for your efforts throughout this season as well! And then for the glitz and glamour... the Dally M Awards! It's a great night and always has been. I do enjoy chucking the suit on and getting together with players from all over the game, past and present, and their partners and celebrating the season. Terry, my beautiful wife, as always escorted me down the red carpet and outshone me in front of all the cameras - accompanied also by our unborn baby. The night was highly enjoyable as well and it was fantastic to see a few of our boys walk away with well deserved prizes. Jimmy took out the 2013 Top Point-Scorer, which he's worked hard on this season. It sometimes goes un-noticed as to what it takes a goal kicker to be as good as Jimmy and it was great to see him awarded the prize after a stellar season with the boot. Roger and Boyd both claimed positional awards last night and I couldn't think of two more deserving blokes. For Roger to be named the games best wing is a huge deal for him and fantastic prize for all his effort, but for us this is something he just deserves. I think he's showed this season just how dangerous he can be, just how good a footballer he will be and just how much of alley he is to us at the Roosters. As for Boyd, well he'll be a leader at the Roosters for years to come and for a 21-year-old kid to out-score Sonny Bill Williams and the numerous other super stars that play in the backrow throughout the NRL, well I think people are now starting to see what we at the Roosters have been fortunate enough to witness for a couple of years now. Just watch this kid go, Roosters Fans. And, finally, Robbo claiming the Coach of the Year Award is something that I truly enjoyed watching. He's a humble guy, his sole purpose is to build a successful group, Club and to see his players become the best they can be. He's one of the best coaches I've worked with, without a doubt, and after just one season he's managed to turn a team into a Grand Final side after finishing 14th the year before and now to claim this award as well, what can you say. We all know Robbo, fans and players alike, and he is - above and beyond all the stars - the best signing we made for the 2013 season. Congrats to Jimmy, Roger, Boyd and Robbo - it's been brilliant working with all four of them all season, plus everyone else in this squad, but let's remember we've still got one award that matters more than them all.

A tiger is hungry, he is looking for food. He sees a frog in front of him. “Ha ha! A frog! My dinner!” so he rushes at the frog. Behind the tiger, there is a tortoise. The little tortoise sees it; he bites the tiger’s tail.“Ouch!” cries the tiger and he looks back. The frog hears the voice and jumps into water. “Thank you, little tortoise.” says the frog.But the tiger is very angry. “Bother it! I’ll throw you to the sky!”“Thank you, I like flying in the sky,” says the tortoise. “Oh,no! I can’t swim; I will die if you throw me into the water.” The tiger threw the tortoise into the water quickly. “Thank you, Mr. Tiger. Bye-bye.” The tortoise and the frog swim away together.

It’s the end of a grueling workday and you’re still on edge, not yet recovered from the sting of a colleague’s tongue lashing. And it’s not the first time. Is this just another “bad day” on the job, or are you experiencing a form of workplace violence, aka bullying? Forty-five percent of nurses have been verbally harassed or bullied by other nurses, while 41% have been verbally harassed or bullied by managers or administrators, according to a 2017 survey by RNnetwork. Thompson, an author and speaker on workplace bullying, said most bullying is nurse to nurse, but other healthcare staff can also be bullies: the nursing assistant who’s been on the unit for 40 years and targets the new RN, or unit secretaries who victimize a particular nurse. Cole Edmondson, DNP, RN, FACHE, NEA-BC, FAAN, CNO at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, agreed most nurses are bullied by other nurses, and most often through verbal abuse. He cited a December 2016 Texas Department of State Health Services study on workplace violence against nurses that revealed 82% of Texas nurses surveyed had experienced workplace violence, ranging from verbal abuse to physical acts. Edmonson added bullying can target groups as well as individuals and is really a group phenomenon: one unit taking out their aggressions on another unit, or nurses on a unit bullying new hires or new graduates. Nurses in some areas or specialties may perceive or believe they are superior or “better than” another unit or specialty and degrade them, their care, their education or specialty. Edmondson said in the literature and in practice “it’s known that nurse bullying ultimately impacts the quality and safety of patient care being provided, as 75% of nurses state they are aware of errors in patient care or issues created when nurse bullying occurs.” Many organizations have chosen to take the journey to Magnet designation to work on improving work environments, empowering nurses and creating excellent outcomes. Some healthcare institutions are facing bullying head on, while others are reducing the incidence through cultivating a certain culture, said Lynda Olender, PhD, RN, MA, NEA-BC, associate dean, Hunter-Bellvue School of Nursing (New York) Graduate Programs, and a Distinguished Lecturer in Nursing. Olender said organizations with caring cultures that follow the code of ethics and practice shared governance have a lower incidence of perceived bullying. Such organizations would experience fewer grievances overall because staff feel more valued, she said. Edmonson asserted leadership should handle bullying by empowering workers through policies and procedures, making them aware bullying is not okay. One reason bullying continues is that often those who witness or suspect the adverse behavior look the other way or decline to become involved. Nurses can and should stop that malicious pattern. Rather than turn away, reach out to a colleague who is the target of a bully. “We can all be ‘upstanders’ by intervening in situations or reaching out to a colleague who is the target of a bully,” said Edmonson. “These situations don’t just stop when the bullying behavior is over. They have long lasting effects on mental health and one’s feelings of safety and security.” As nurses learn to identify and confront harmful behaviors toward themselves and coworkers, workplace violence, including bullying of nurses, will not be allowed to persist. Nurses — and patients — will be safer and secure. Practice self awareness, observing how the situation is provoking an emotional response, recommended Olender. Edmonson said if a nurse is comfortable doing so, he or she can address it directly with the person. If that’s not possible, Olender recommended practicing a response using role play on his or her own or with a friend. If the nurse is not comfortable with the direct approach or if a direct discussion does not work, report it to a manager, supervisor or preceptor. If the manager is the problem, said Olender, seek the support of someone else, an educator or someone in human resources. The nurse should find out the organization’s policy that addresses behaviors that undermine a culture of safety, and make sure he or she is clear on how the person has violated that policy. Then document the experiences with that person, stated Thompson. Always document the situation: What happened, who said what and who witnessed the incident. Edmondson stresses that documenting needs to happen immediately since one’s impressions and memories are often less precise over time. New nurses are an easy target for bullies, just because they’re new, noted Thompson. Preventing this starts with the job hunt, so new nurses should do their homework about the healthcare organization to which they are applying, said Olender. “Do they have a caring culture, a code of ethics, policies and procedure in place? Do they have shared governance?” If they do, the likelihood of bullying is probably lower, she said. Some units can be toxic, Olender said. Ask the right questions in the interview process, such as how scheduling conflicts are handled. She said it’s a positive sign if unit nursing staff are part of the interviewing process, as it shows the organization is empowering the staff to make decisions about colleagues. Ask if there are policies and procedures for workplace violence. Look at their orientation — what do they do to insure a healthy work environment? Practice prevention personally as well. “Know what bullies look for in a target,” said Renee Thompson. Bullies look for “nurses who they don’t think will confront or challenge them, who seem insecure or nervous, who are passive communicators — anything that makes them different,” she said. For example, a BSN new hire might find him or herself as a target because most of the other nurses on the unit have associate’s degrees. A nurse should act confident when starting a new position, Thompson said. Hold your head high. Shake hands of new people with confidence. Look up the free online resource, the Civility Tool-kit, which addresses bullying behavior across the continuum. I was a victim of bullying vpby nurses at a facility when the 2008 housing crash happened. The nurse would verbally tell her colleagues behingpd my back within earshot what a horrible RN I was. I was almost at a point of getting fired and went before the nurse manager. I attempted to get my old position back if I was that inept at this one. I ended up going on stress leave and had a conference call with them including professionals who were on my side. The end result? The nurse manager was laid off, as well as some some old timers ( they make too much money), and I got my dignity back. I have a position now where I have boundaries and am respected by families and nurses alike???! Every person you encounter within your profession can truly make a difference with how they perceive the value of their contributions and efforts by vesting time, and sharing knowledge and experience. It’s easy to turn a blind eye and allow a fellow colluege to struggle, after all, why should they be worthy of not enduring the struggles and lessons earned like a right of passage. I”ll share my beliefs on this. How are we preserving our profession as nurses, when we judge our own without any regard to how we may potentially impact someone’s dream to make an difference guiding a patient towards restoring their health? The journey and struggles one makes to become a nurse may bring hard life lessons, but the very few who stand out and realize vesting in our professions future are the very few that keep hope..hope for passing knowledge and wisdom, along with passing the torch to the future generations of our nursing profession. Ironic how Edmunson talks about bullying when it is his own nursing units that are the biggest bullies in the DFW metroplex. 1. Directly communicating with my preceptor result. Made me a bigger target. She even said to my face that she, “Hated people” among other horrible things to me. 2. Went to my supervisor who spoke to her but I became an even bigger target by the other nurses who were close friends with my previous preceptor. My new preceptor berated me so badly that I went into a room to cry. I was followed in by two co-workers who saw what she did and offered comfort, advice and even tips on my charting error, But no one spoke out. 3. I spoke to a Nurse educator as part of the new grad program, but that just made things worse. I was targeted as a problem nurse and all my mistakes were blown out of proportion and I was being “spoken to” during my shifts pulled away from care for the most mundane issues. It got ridiculous. I could see that the writing on the wall was just to get rid of me. I am not a pushover or a whiner. I am an older new grad. A former professional in law enforcement and a veteran. I cannot believe the change these women had on me. I became a shadow of my former confident self. I was a nervous and terrified version of myself. I am afraid to speak up for myself. I fear repercussions, loss of my job and more. The current system of “follow the chain of command” “go to HR” does not work. IMHO I wish a separate entity like an Internal Affairs in law enforcement would be set up by nurses for nurses from outside the established groups within an organization. In the end I left before they found fired me. And now I fear applying anywhere. I’d rather face ISIS then a pack of nurses. I totally agree!! Everything you said has been true for me at every job I’ve had. So tired of the bullying among nurses!!! In my opinion bullying in healthcare is very prolific because many nurses are great advocates for their patients, but very poor advocates for themselves. While nurse to nurse bullying is bad, what is worst is when the bullying is coming from a nurse manager to a staff nurse. The staff nurse is at a great disadvantage, however, a nurse should persist that any form of bullying in the workplace be from a nurse to nurse bullying or from a nurse manager to a staff nurse, be stopped!! Some of the nurses came from different country and they have different accent. Locals understand the english and it will not depend on the english. However, nurses do their best to carefully communicate to their patients to assist them right also. How amazing to see my own story mirrored by others. I also am being targeted and bullied by management. And while nurses may advocate for pts, they are often reluctant to advocate for a nurse being bullied by management. I imagine the power of at least a handful of our 60 RNs speaking up, but how many actually do!? One.. and that is myself . Stepford wives of nursing who pride themselves on their efficiency, yet when it comes to having the integrity to standing up for other nurses , or to management….. good luck! I’m going through this as an OT with another OT colleague..horrific sociopath of a bully and sleeps in her car instead of seeing patients. I am being bullied by management and by the staff. Other nurses do not stick up for you they just stand by and watch. Some participate in bullying. There is no support from management, human resources or anyone. When you report it you get labeled and you are treated as if you are not credible and they attack your character. Wish there was somewhere you can go to get help. The problem is the “insubordination” accusation. You learn in high school how to talk back to bullies, but if there is a shouting match on the unit, it’s the crime of the century. Instead, I think hospitals should not retaliate when nurses hit back at bullies or if staff argues with the supervisor. Insubordination on an employee’s record should be liable to slander/ libel lawsuit. I am a 59 year old RN who has worked my entire nursing career without experiencing bullying until recently. I was employed by a health care system as a supervisor of a psychiatric facility in central PA. I worked there for 6 months on a 12 hour weekend option. During that time I began to be harassed, bullied and reported multiple times by three older new RN’s from the Child Adolescent Unit. All three have had other careers and when they finished orientation the DON felt they should be cross trained to cover the hospital as supervisor. Administration paid them ten dollars an hour on top of their regular salary when they covered the facility. This was enough financial incentive as well as them wanting my weekend option position. All three were all on a 5 day per week schedule rotating shifts. I reported the bullying and it was dismissed by nursing administration and so I took it to Hospital Administration. After that I was assaulted by a teenager and was on workman’s comp for a week and when I returned I was treated even worse by Nursing Administration. The bullying went as far as me having my car tire slashed while at work. I realize now that not every nurse who works at a psychiatric facility has good mental health and administration does not like anyone shining a bright light on situations where experienced supervisors are bullied by staff. Eventually I wrote a letter to the CEO of the health system. I did receive a meeting at corporate headquarters and a sincere apology from the corporate level administrators, however the real issue still remains that I have PTSD from such a traumatic work experience and the psychiatric hospital now has one of the three young inexperienced nurses as the supervisor in my old position and they continue to bully older professional employees. Sometimes we must realize that bullying is a corporate culture and it was not only allowed it was fostered and those who engaged it in at every level realized this too. The entire staff at this hospital now know that it will be tolerated and maybe even applauded.

Our journey up the west coast of the Malay peninsula was different than expected, but we made good memories with good friends. We’ve now got experience and opinions about the string of marinas. All the dock time was a little surreal after a year of mostly anchoring. It was good. Our watermaker hasn’t worked in a few months, and with five bodies on board, we use a fair amount even in stringent conservation mode. The new membrane and end caps were arriving with my parents (barely, after a vendor forgot to ship until we followed up a couple of weeks after we paid…whoops) but meanwhile, it was really nice to be able to tank up at the dock. Lugging jerry cans is not fun. Ask Jamie. Having access to water makes laundry on board a snap, but having access to a good washer and dryer is even better! It’s just over $1/load to wash a pile of laundry at Puteri Harbour. I had some excellent helpers. Up the road in Port Dickson, the kids had a wealth of playmates at the Admiral Marina. They made fast friends with the two girls on M/V Kristina II, and found old friends to reconnect with on S/V Pickles. The cruising kid posse on the dock hit 10 at first count! Good times at a beautiful facility. When we headed north for a stint at the Pangkor Marina, the girls got fired up to have a bake sale. Can you feel the excitement through this picture? Unfortunately, they were shut down with a simple “No” from the first grumpy boat they visited, which also turned out to be the only one with people aboard. We’re still out of sync with the seasonal fleet, so many boats are sitting empty in these marinas while the cruisers fly home or do land travel in the region. It somewhat squelched their enthusiasm, until reminded that meant there was more for us to eat! Penang’s Straits Quay marina was our last stop on the way to Langkawi. We only had time for a couple of days, but that was enough to get our Thai visas at the consulate, eat some incredible food, and catch up with our friends Gary and Bev on Muscat. We went out to watch the resident monitor lizards (mid-sized beasties: I think this guy was about 4 or 5 feet) on the breakwall in the morning. It was talking to the guard there that I realized the security staff everywhere we have stayed are not Malaysian, but Nepalese, usually just here for a year or two. Why is that? Food for thought. Most of the time, Jamie was flat out with the project on Tahina, so the kids and I tried to make the rest of life easy: keeping up with routines on the boat, hiding from the heat at midday, reading, learning, exploring. Regarding the question of Nepalese security staff. They are ubiquitous across India and the Middle East too ! These jobs are tough, low paying, and thus you have poor , unqualified Nepalese men from the interiors of Nepal ready to take these on for a living. Usually entails leaving family behind for long periods of time and sharing tiny rooms with other guys. Another thing you would have noticed in Malaysia, almost all the menial/low paying jobs are taken up by men from poor countries neighbouring relatively prosperous Malaysia. Taxi drivers, construction, restaurant servers, etc. Maids for household work / babysitting are almost exclusively Indonesian women.

The city of Kathmandu in Nepal is an absolutely perfect March vacation spot for those who want to experience life to the fullest. The best time to visit is during the colorful festival of Holi. Throughout the world, Holi is a festival focused on love, happiness, summer, and human connection. The festival occurs on the 1st full moon of March each year, so plan your vacation time accordingly! Holi has become a worldwide festival. So, you might be asking yourself why you’d hop on a plane to Nepal to revel in the street covered in colored powder. The answer is simple: the Himalayas! Kathmandu, the capital and largest city of Nepal, is a metropolis gateway into the Himalayas which are home to famous Mount Everest. With the city and surrounding hills at an elevation of at least 4,600 feet and up to 8,340 feet you’ll be able to find stunning views of the legendary mountain. For dedicated adventurers, Kathmandu is a great spot to start the hike to the Everest Base Camp. You can travel with a tour group, or even fly to the Base Camp. Just imagine starting your trekking adventure up Mount Everest by participating in the festival meant to bring happiness, love, and summer! But don’t forget all the instagram opportunities. March is a lovely time to be traveling Nepal, and you’ll be able to pack for warm weather with averages around 80 Fahrenheit during the day. It’s wise to bring a few layers to ward off the brisk nights. Of course pack much more to keep you warm if you decide to trek through any of the Himalayas. For the Holi festival days, be sure to pack clothes that you don’t mind getting very dirty. During the morning and early afternoon hours, it’s a generally accepted rule that anyone out on the street is fair game for being doused with color. So, keep your clothes simple and keep an eye out for color powder, colored water squirt guns, and even water balloons that may come flying through the air. Outside of experiencing Holi in Nepal or trekking the Himalayas, you’ll be able to keep yourself busy wandering around the historic sights of Kathmandu. Three such sights are found at the various Durbar squares which are house many of the historic temples and palaces of Nepal. Kathmandu Durbar Square, in old city Kathmandu, is one of the most striking locations. Home to the Golden temple and next to the Kumari Ghar palace, you’ll have plenty of historic places to visit, and lots of shops and markets to see on your way around the square! Visiting any of the Durbar squares is also a great way to continue the giving spirit of Holi. In 2015, many of the buildings were damaged by a large earthquake. Tourists are able to assist in the renovations of the damages by paying the square’s entry fee and participating in tourist attractions! For one of the best views of Everest and the Himalayas, head up to Chandragiri Hill. On the south-west side of the Kathmandu valley, this spot has one of the highest elevations in the city limits. Allowing you to get the best glimpses of the even taller Himalayas. You can hop on the local cable car to help traverse the area. Or my suggestion is to take one of the hiking trails that have opened in the valley. By traveling Nepal and participating in a cultural festival such as Holi, it’s easy to completely embrace the spirit of learning about the culture you’re being immersed in. One great way to learn more about a group of people is to look at their art. Kathmandu is a city rich in art of all mediums. From sculptures on the streets, to beautifully adorned temples, to three different art galleries in the city. You won’t find yourself missing any visual stimulation after the initial color throwing of Holi has passed. If you’re thinking about creating an unforgettable adventure during the month of March. Traveling Nepal and enjoy the festival of Holi. With unending colors, spontaneity, and some views of the earth’s most stunning natural wonders. Trust me you’ll be transported to a new world of wonder and happiness.

1. Volume: Think about what your production capabilities will be over the next year, and how they could change. Are there factors related to procurement or your own manufacturing process that could change your ability to meet your expected volume? Are there new products that might shift resources away from current product lines? 2. Prices: Understand where your prices currently stand. Where are you in relation to your competitors? Do you have pricing power? How might that affect your volume? Understanding the supply and demand curve for your products will provide keen insight to these questions and put you ahead of your competition. 3. Raw materials costs: To accurately predict your margin structure – and, therefore, how much profit your company will make – you need to be aware of how the costs of raw materials might fluctuate. Are there any disruptions to your supply chain on the horizon? Can you count on your suppliers to continue to supply raw materials so you can sell your product at the current price? If customers are very price conscious how can you hedge raw materials to maintain your margin? 4. Transportation and manufacturing costs: Similarly, if there is potential for significant fluctuation in your transportation or manufacturing costs, consider other options. Could you transport goods in a more efficient way? Manufacture in a different location? Lean out your operations? If not, and the risk is large, does it still make sense to continue offering that product. 5. Selling, general and administrative costs: Linking SG&A expenses to revenue generation can be difficult but is an important exercise. All departments should be able to define how they bring value to the organization. Until then, their role within the company is, and should be, at risk. 6. Product Mix: Finally, when looking at revenue you can’t look at each of your product lines as independent entities. How are they working together? If the cost of one is rising, you might have to shift your focus to another, or even phase out that product line altogether. The sale of one product may depend upon another product. Aligning objectives to promote the best product mix is an important budgeting goal. At the end of the day, all of the above factors interact in different ways to shape your profitability. Changes in your product mix may inspire you to toy with changes in price; likewise, transportation costs may cause you to rethink your assumptions about volume. It is only by taking all these factors into consideration that you can have a good picture of the profitability you can expect, and it’s only then that you can start to plan for the future.

On Friday, October 21st, a series of large-scale DDoS attacks were launched against Dyn, a managed DNS provider. Over the course of 18 hours, these attacks disrupted many critical services–including Spotify, Amazon and HBO Now–all of whom are customers of Dyn. At the height of the attack, approximately 75% of our global vantage points sent queries that went unanswered by Dyn’s servers. In addition, the critical nature of many of these affected services led to collateral damage, in terms of outages and performance impacts on sites that are only tangentially related to Dyn (including this blog). As we currently know, the Mirai botnet of hacked and poorly protected consumer devices was one of the sources of the DDoS attack on Dyn. Dyn reported that tens of millions of IP addresses were involved; this implicates a smaller number of devices, given that many devices likely had dynamic IPs on consumer Internet connections. We still do not know the specific target; Level 3 has reported that much of the attack traffic was a TCP SYN flood. While this topic has already been extensively covered, we’re adding our view of the attack to help straighten out the facts and broaden the conversation. For reference, we’ve covered previous DNS DDoS attacks on NS1, UltraDNS and the DNS root. First, a quick reminder of what the DNS is and why an attack on the DNS can be so devastating. The Domain Name System (DNS) translates domain names (like www.hbonow.com) to IP addresses and vice versa. This translation, or mapping, is not static over time. DNS is critical to the ability of large-scale Internet services to send user traffic to their nearest data center or to switch traffic to a different server on a whim. Dyn is popular especially because of its Traffic Director features which shape traffic flows for geographic load balancing. The DNS is the first step in the process when a user accesses a website or API. If a fresh DNS record is not located in the user’s cache, the OS will set off a recursive search to find the IP address for the domain in question. The search ends at an authoritative server that provides the ‘authoritative’ answer to the user’s query. Dyn is a service that runs authoritative servers on behalf of its customers. Therefore, when Dyn is inaccessible, the DNS records of its customers are also inaccessible, and their sites will become progressively unavailable as the time to live (TTL) of their DNS records expire. Phase 1: Initial impacts centered on the U.S. A large majority of DNS queries to Dyn were unavailable from the U.S. East Coast, expanding to portions of the U.S. West Coast and Western Europe over the time period. Between 25-75% of queries to Dyn went unanswered, affecting users in all geographies sending queries to all Dyn data centers outside China (we did not find that the domains in our tests were served from China). Figure 1 shows the global network layer impact. Figure 1: Packet loss from global locations to one of Dyn’s DNS servers at 1:10pm PDT. Most services were no longer impacted due to effective mitigation, though the attack continued on Dyn data centers across Western Europe and the U.S. Figure 2 shows the packet loss that continued to varying extents. and lingering attacks and/or blackholing of traffic until the following morning. As noted earlier, Dyn is a popular and well-respected managed DNS provider with many high-profile customers. Dyn customers impacted included SaaS companies (AthenaHealth), social networks (Twitter), music (Spotify), media (CNN), gaming (Sony PSN), advertising (BlueKai) and consumer products (Red Bull). During a one-hour period we found over 1200 impacted domains among the services our customers were monitoring. This is certainly an underestimate of the scope of the impact, but does reflect the scale of critical services involved. Figure 3 shows an example from AthenaHealth; note that DNS is the first critical phase of a web connection. Figure 3: AthenaHealth, a SaaS application, shows widespread loss of availability during the height of the outage. The following links show data from several of these services. In each, you’ll notice a similar timing of DNS failures. Because Dyn is popular for supporting geographic load balancing (providing DNS answers that vary depending on the user’s location), many of Dyn’s customers use it exclusively to host their DNS. When you register your domain name with a registrar, you have the ability to specify the authoritative name servers you want to use. Often you have 4-6 name servers you can list. Most of Dyn’s customers were only using Dyn’s name servers, rather than diversifying across multiple providers. Because they didn’t have a backup DNS provider to fall back on during the DDoS attacks, these customers were the most vulnerable to complete service unavailability. In contrast, Amazon.com has multiple DNS providers: UltraDNS and Dyn. While Amazon was affected by slow load times, it did not suffer the same unavailability issues as many of Dyn’s other customers. Figure 4 shows what name server (NS) records look like when there are multiple providers. Figure 4: Amazon.com has multiple DNS providers. Dyn runs 20 data centers around the world for a combination of both free and paid managed DNS services. We saw impacts in 17 of them, all but Warsaw, Beijing and Shanghai. Within these data centers, Dyn maintains two ‘constellations’ of name servers (NS1, NS3 in one group; NS2, NS4 in another) that are intended to be isolated to failure. Dyn’s DNS service uses anycast, where a single IP address is simultaneously announced from multiple data centers and servers. Each of the constellations shares IP addresses and routing prefixes, meaning that they share peering connections and routes across the Internet. It also means they share congestion during a DDoS attack. In the examples above, the name servers (e.g. ns1.p37.dynect.net) reveal the constellation as the name server ‘groups’ specific to a domain (p37). We saw highly correlated performance for name servers in the same constellation and group. In addition, while performance was not perfectly correlated between name servers in different constellations, in this DDoS attack we did not see enough failure independence to ensure the availability of at least one of the name servers. In most cases, DNS queries couldn’t make it through Dyn’s ISPs (primarily Level 3, Telia, NTT, Cogent and Telstra) or through the edge of Dyn’s network. In Figure 5, we can see how some traffic made it through to the DNS servers on the right (note that the anycast IP is actually multiple servers) while other traffic fails to reach the destination. Figure 5: Vantage points on the left send DNS queries to Dyn’s DNS servers in Seattle (in green on the right). At this time periodic traffic destined for Dyn’s San Jose, Chicago and Dallas data centers terminates in the Telia network (red circles on right). This lack of network connectivity, in combination with the high load on the DNS servers, contributed to very low rates of DNS server availability. Figure 6 shows the DNS server availability of a major web service. Figure 6: Availability of the 4 name servers for a given record from over 120 locations around the world. Of those that were available, average minimum resolution time was 1 second (30x normal). You can monitor your own DNS infrastructure and records using standard command line tools like dig. You can also use a product like ThousandEyes to use dig at large scale, across time and with alerts. In addition, check out our CISO’s take on Secure DNS Management Best Practices and an introduction on how you can effectively alert on DNS performance. Over the coming days, we will also post several more times on lessons to be learned from this event.

Simon Cowell is reported to have demanded huge changes to the forthcoming series of The X Factor, telling friends he had ‘had enough’ of the show in its current format. According to the Mirror the shake-up will see choreographer Brian Friedman return to the show, while the judges will be personally tutored by Cowell amid concerns they ‘under-performed’ on last year’s series. And plans for the revamp are reportedly being put in place ahead of the boot camp stage of the show which will begin filming shortly – in a bid to once again win the Saturday night ratings war over Strictly Come Dancing when both shows return in the autumn. “Simon has made it clear that things have got to change and The X Factor must be the number one show on TV without question,” a source told the paper. “Last year it was embarrassing being beaten in the ratings some weeks by Strictly Come Dancing, with all the buzz being about the BBC show instead of his. Simon won’t allow that to happen again and he wants Brian back on board to help the show look outrageous and unbelievable,” the insider added. Other changes will reportedly include the appointment of his personal make-up artist Julia Carta, as well as different stylists working with the finalists.

Exhibiting her paintings across the UK for many years, she has honed her process and technique to give voice to her expression, a personal style seeking to connect with the world around her. She loves to write as part of her expression and her written pieces like to exist nearby her paintings, gently trailing from their coat-tails. In walking the space between figuration and abstraction Toni finds a freedom which allows her to go deeper into the intangible substance of the psyche and human condition without restricting or enforcing definitive ideas. Pulling recognisable truths into the work while giving reign to the unknown and ensuing contradiction to hold its own space, her paintings are looking for a balance, a kind of peace. In every journey travelled there is darkness as well as light, with more questions than answers. And these are the places Toni looks to find beauty.

A fire at a Warwick pub which started yesterday afternoon (Thursday August 24) had to be battled by fire crews overnight. Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service received 19 emergency calls reporting the Great Western Pub in Coventry Road on fire at just before 4.25pm. Two crews from Leamington and Kenilworth were sent intially, but backup from Southam and Henley-in-Arden was requested when they arrived. The fire had to be fought from the outside as part of the building had collapsed inside. The landlord at the Railway Inn on Guy Street, said: “We could see smoke coming out of the window and we walked down the road and inside there were flames everywhere. Police came and it has just gone up. Warwickshire Police shut the road in both directions between Lakin Road and Coten End, and it remain closed throughout the night. They were also directing traffic near Lakin Road. Warwick Station’s car park was also closed, and remains so this morning (Friday August 25). No ambulances were sent and no injuries were reported.

It looks like Ezekiel Elliott isn’t the only former Ohio State Buckeye to be appearing in a television segment in the near future. Elliott announced earlier this week that he will be featured in an episode of ESPN’s “Sport Science” and Braxton Miller is going to follow his lead. Miller announced on Twitter that he would be heading out to Los Angeles to film NFL Network’s “Game Changers.” He said he would be joined by Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin and that fans could follow him through his journey throughout the day. The former Dallas Cowboys superstar seems pretty excited to work with Miller on the show. It’s pretty ironic that Irvin and Miller will be working together soon, especially since there are rumors that the Cowboys would be willing to select him in the second round if he were available. This should be a fun episode to watch in the coming weeks.

Although we still haven’t found the perfect office yet, we are mostly operational now. We’re actively looking for a cool space in Singapore so let us know if you know of anything cheap, cool and near Arab Street. James is in Singapore holding down the fort as the investment manager and Sean is running around the world supporting the mentoring and organizing meetings and conferences. We completed the initial fund raising close on May 28, 2010 at US$5,000,000. Our investors include Omidyar Network, Digital Garage, Netprice, Outblaze, Emitac, Fred Wilson, Brad Burnham, Toivo Annus, Michael Levinthal, Owen Van Natta, Jeff Jonas, Mohamed Nanabhay, Dhananjaya Dvivedi, Balall Yaqub, Jayesh Parekh, Mamoru Taniya, Oki Matsumoto, Teruhide Sato and Jun Makihara. We’ve completed 5 investments so far: path.com, CreationMix, Foound, Game Ventures and one more that we can’t talk about yet. I’m in Singapore every month or so as I circumnavigate the world every month stopping in Tokyo, Silicon Valley, Dubai and Singapore plus whatever other city makes sense that month. I’m splitting my time between Creative Commons, looking for new opportunities and supporting the network of companies in my portfolio. I’m really happy with the quality of entrepreneurs and companies that we’ve found so far, but we’re still actively looking for more early stage consumer Internet companies in Asia and the Middle East, which is our focus. Special bonus points if they are in Singapore or willing to relocate to Singapore. We’re all in Singapore right now for SingTel’s Accelerate 2010 which we helped organized with many of our companies and partners. Next week the Neoteny Labs team will be in Tokyo for Digital Garage’s New Context Conference 2010. The week after that I’ll be back in Singapore for Techventure 2010. I look forward to catching up with you at one of these events! I think it was exactly a year ago that the dream of Neoteny Labs was forming around big conference tables in Singapore. Congrats, guys!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from A Great Find I'm a 47 year old woman and live in Colorado. I have combination skin, and find the dry Colorado climate really drags moisture out of my face. I received this as a freebie and loved it. It makes. Visible difference to my skin, and replaces moisture the climate takes out. I've read complaints about the strong smell, and while it certainly does have a scent, I find it very pleasant. My family often remark on how nice I smell when I've just used it. The smell fades quickly, even if you don't like it. Rated 5 out of 5 by Suyen from A Wonderful Must-Have!!! Used this product for the first time and I totally fell in love with Clarins Face Treatment Oil - it has become a staple in my morning and evening rituals for skin care. Blue Orchid is my favourite because I just love how it smells - it has a clean scent that has a soothing effect on me. I use this oil during the day as a moisturiser - before I put on my foundation primer. Just apply a few drops then massage it onto your skin. Give your skin a few minutes to absorb the treatment oil before you put on your foundation primer. Rated 5 out of 5 by JoanU from Amazing product I always thought that I shouldn't use oils on my face because I'll get acne. My skin was mostly normal with oily T-zone. At the age of 25 I moved to a dry hot climate and got a lot of skin issues. I got acne all over my face and my skin was dry and wrinkly at the same time. I tried tons of stuff and was so happy to finally find this oil. It absolutely changed my skin condition. I don't have acne anymore, my wrinkles are smaller now and the skin looks hydrated and youthful. Rated 4 out of 5 by Curlysue from Wonderful treat! I wanted to try a facial oil to see if it improved my skin tone. I tried the sample of the Blue Orchid oil for a week. It has a nice soothing scent and a little goes a long way. My skin is m ore porous since I've turned 50 and I found that after using the oil, I found my pores to be clogged more than normal. However!! I have been using the oil on my neck and decollete area the results are pretty impressive. Sagging has diminished and the fine lines are less noticeable, plus the scent is nice to catch a whiff of during a hectic day. Rated 5 out of 5 by RedCopperLocks from Blue Orchid Face Treatment Oil (So Soothing)! The Blue Orchid Face Treatment Oil is one of my Favorites in the Clarins line. It is so Soothing for my Dry Eczema facial skin. I use it after cleansing & toning on my face & neck while my skin is still damp from the toner. The Patchouli and Blue Orchid extracts add a light aromatherapy! My face & neck feels so much softer - smoother - hydrated. I also noticed another anti-age benefit...face & neck look firmer! If you have an oily T-Zone & dry everywhere else...use the Lotus for the t-zone & the Blue Orchid for the dry areas. Rated 5 out of 5 by Shaka from Blue orchid face treatment oil Absolutely love this oil. The appearance of my skin has changed after using this. It's more transparent and my fine lines are less visible and there's just a nice glow which I never had before. Even my husband noticed that my skin looked better in the morning than what it did before. I would go to bed with my makeup on, although I don't wear much, but since I have been doing this facial routine consistently I can really see a big difference.

11.3.2018 EPISCOPAL ORDINATION OF DERMOT FARRELL. Last Sunday the Episcopal Ordination of Dermot Farrell took place in St Mary's Cathedral Kilkenny. The principal consecrator was Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, Archbishop of Dublin. Pic shows Archbishop Diarmuid Martin (Principal Consecrator) laying his hands upon the head of the candidate at the cermony on Sunday. Pic John Mc Elroy. NO REPRO FEE. The new Bishop of Ossory, Dr Dermot Farrell, has issued a strong pro-life message warning that to “extinguish the right to life of the innocent child” in the name of personal and civil rights is the “ultimate delusion”. He said there was “no such thing as a human life that has no value” and he prayed people’s eyes would be opened “to see the image of God in every child, at every stage of their lives”. Speaking to the media after the ceremony, which was presided over by Archbishop of Dublin Dr Diarmuid Martin and the papal nuncio Archbishop Jude Okolo, Dr Farrell described the right to life as the fundamental right on which all other rights are based. “If we don’t cherish that right you can’t talk about any other rights: personal rights or civil rights or political rights, because without life you don’t have any other rights,” he said. Bishop Farrell also challenged the Government on the homeless crisis, saying it should not be “an impossible dream to hope that no person, particularly no child, in this country would be left homeless or go to bed hungry”. He said he was not just referring to those in hotel rooms, but the country’s immigrants in direct provision. “With more than 3,000 children in this country who have no place they can call their home, with families who do not have a front door to call their own, who have no family table – do we not have an obligation to call those in political leadership, who hold power and carry responsibility, to act with urgency, for the well-being of our sisters and brothers?” he said. Asked to respond to former president Mary McAleese’s comments on misogyny in the Catholic Church, Bishop Farrell said her “questions come out of a conviction and a deep faith”. “I am reminded of a quip by Cardinal Newman who once said that the Church would be a very strange place without the laity – it would probably be an even stranger place without women,” he told the Irish Independent. On International Women’s Day, Dr Martin acknowledged that one of the most significant factors in alienating people from Church structures today is the place of women in the Church. He said Dr McAleese’s challenge to the internal culture of the Church “was brutally stark”.

I recently got the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform. It is a stamp positioner with a gridded base, and a hinged gridded clear lid. You put your cardstock on the base, arrange stamps on it, close the lid and raise it. Now you can ink the stamp, close the lid to stamp, raise it, change out cardstock and repeat. If you don't get a good impression you can ink and stamp again and it always goes back to the same place! The difference on this positioner is that the lid is removable so you can use one side for clear stamps and the other for the thicker red rubber stamps. So, for this card, I had a swath of snowfalkes plus several individual ones, the sentiment and the bear. All could be stamped in one go. Then I turned the card around, removed everything but the swath and repositioned that to fill the opposite corner. Just like that, I had a dozen card fronts ready to color. I used Distress Markers for all the coloring. Then I got out the bulb spritzer and used it with two colors of marker to create the mist over the surface. I do believe I am going to like this new tool. The last couple of days I told you about a technique I found at http://stamptv.ning.com/video/embossing-over-watercolor called embossing over watercolor. By scribbling on watercolor paper with three values of a color and of green where you want flowers and leaves then spritzing with water and using a heat gun to dry the piece, you set up for a floral background. Versamark is used to stamp solid flower heads over the colored areas and solid leaves over the green areas then they are embossed with clear powder and a heat gun. Sponging over the surface with dark ink lets the flowers and leaves shine through and then any extra ink is buffed off with a paper towel. The second piece I did had better composition and more even results so I decided to use it as a whole background. I tied twine in three strands and added a pre-stamped sentiment with a border popped up on foam tape. Each flower got a pink rhinestone center and the whole piece was added to a green base card. I started yesterday telling you about a technique I found at http://stamptv.ning.com/video/embossing-over-watercolor called embossing over watercolor. On watercolor paper you scribble three values of a color where you want flowers, then three values of green where you will stamp the leaves. You spritz with water and use a heat gun to dry the piece. Stamp solid flower heads with Versamark over the colored areas and solid leaves over the green areas then emboss with clear powder a heat gun. Sponge over the surface with dark ink and buff any extra off with a paper towel. I mounted this on foam tape over a chevron paper and a text strip. Then I tied with twine and added a text tag. The base card is burgundy cardstock. I was watching some video tutorials on my favorite blogs the other day and ran across a technique I had not used before. If you want to see the original, visit Gina K Designs at http://stamptv.ning.com/video/embossing-over-watercolor for a technique she calls embossing over watercolor. Start with watercolor paper and scribble three values of a color where you want flowers, then three values of green where you will stamp the leaves. Spritz the surface with water and let the colors bleed. When it gets where you want it to be, use a heat gun to dry the piece. Ink a solid flower head with Versamark embossing ink and stamp over the colored areas, Ink solid leaf with Versamark ink and stamp over the green areas. Cover with clear embossing powder and set with heat gun. Use a foam tool and dark ink to sponge over the surface. The embossing will resist the ink but you can buff any extra off with a soft cloth or paper towel. With the first one I made, I cut the piece in two and made separate cards out of them. I used walnut ink for the dark background. I made a base card with a green floral and strips of coordinating papers. I added twine and a little tag before popping the focal up on foam tape. Time to make art for the County Fair! We'll start with the assignment for a Christmas card with rubber stamping. I began the process by inking a pine tree stamp with Distress Markers and stamping it on white cardstock. I masked the tree and inked an old-fashioned car with black Distress Marker and stamped that. I added brown Distress marker to color the car. I masked the car and tore some post-it paper. This was used to mask a line below the car and blue Distress ink was brushed upward to create a snow bank. The torn paper was moved higher and blue inked again. Then a layer of brown was inked under the car followed by two higher snow banks. At last, I moved the mask higher and stamped bare trees. I removed all the masks and then used foam with Blue Distress ink to color the sky. I used a Distress Marker to sketch in a shadow underneath the car to ground it. I stamped the greeting in the lower corner with black archival ink. Stickles glitter was used sparingly across the tops of the snow banks and then dotted in the bare trees. I used a brown bordering paper and then mounted it all on a green card base. I had so much fun wandering around the SplitCoastStampers tutorials. I ran across a technique I haven't done for a long time - blue delft tile. I decided to use 1-inch increments for the tiles, scored them on my ScorPal and stamped with dark blue Distress Ink. After the ink was dry I used an aqua-brush to blend the ink. I used a heat gun to dry it and then used a lighter blue Distress Ink and a sponge to tint the edges of the 'tiles' for dimension. I went over the lines with a white gel pen (not effective) and then a white Distress Marker (much better). I ended up with two panels to use and treated them only slightly differently. First was by adding a sentiment stamped onwhite. I used some of the blue ink to tint the edges and popped it up on foam tape. For the second card I added a blue stamped sentiment which I banded in white. This was also popped up on foam tape. I'm going to have to go do more cruising around the SplitCoastStampers site for techniques and tutorials. These experiments have been a blast. I think this is the last of the images I colored on the day with no power a couple of months back. I guess I might have missed one somewhere, but this is it for the time being. I trimmed the image with a thin border and combined it with table scraps that picked out hues from the coloring. I chose a solid yellow background for the same reason. Again, with the gold Thank You sentiment sticker. I wanted to have a card that had a more masculine feel to it. I chose table scraps with dark hues and low contrast. I decided to enliven this with a strip of shiny gold the exact width of the stamped image. Three strips of scraps pick up colors from the image and balance the right side of the card. The shiny gold Thank You sticker on top of the shiny gold strip resembles embossing. Some of the table scraps I pulled out were just meant to be together like these pink chevron and teal dot papers. I added the yellow crosspieces because of the yellow roof on the birdhouse. I cut the image in a circle instead of the usual square. I wanted something to pull out the orange from the image and chose these puffy hearts. Since the birdhouse was so colorful in this version I wanted to keep the background fairly neutral, thus keeping the focus on the image. I used table scraps with low contrast and soft hues but cut and arranged them in a casual style. The addition of a pink border on the image separates it from the background. I made use of those gold Thank You stickers again. I had a lot of left over of this birdhouse. I had colored this in many different ways during the session with no power. I trimmed this version down to nearly square and combined table scraps in a variety of coral patterns. The border on the feature is popped up on foam tape to separate it from the similar colored background. The sentiment is a gold peel-off sticker. OK, I am officially addicted to this technique. Once I showed it to the granddaughters they were addicted and now I am, too. I amde this card larger than the usual ones I make so it will not go off to Operation Write Home. I might finally have some cards on hand to send to friends and relatives! I used a different watercolor paper that I found when we ran out of the little pad I had been using. This was a bunch of loose sheets I had cut out of a letter-sized pad and of a higher quality. Not only were the pages thicker but there was less tooth and the surface could be manipulated when wet without pilling. I worked on a half sheet filling the whole area. The top background was inked with tumbled glass and the bottom with sage green. Then I did the spot coloring with a green, pink and yellow. When this was dry I over-stamped with the flowers and the script. I tore the top and bottom edges and placed on wide black borders. I trimmed the whole block and mounted it on a pink background that matches the flowers. I added a sentiment block, bordered in the same pink and popped up on foam tape. At the last minute I decided to use little dots of yellow pearl pen on the flower centers. I liked that watercolor background card I made the first day so much that I decided to do it again - note to self: buy more watercolor paper. This time I selected the stamp with the bottles with flowers standing in them. What a great technique this was to use with this stamp. I decided to start with a two-toned purple background. To this I added the blue and green for the bottles and an orange and red for the flowers. After the last dry I used an unreadable text stamp to add some background in espresso ink and then stamped the image with black. I mounted it on a purple card base with a very fine black border and hand drawn pen doodles around the stamped panel. I attached a stamped sentiment block at the upper left. I had three granddaughters here a while back and, as with all my grandkids, we needed to have some crafty time. Having just finished up the stretching stamps class I wanted to show one of them a technique I had learned. I chose to demonstrate the spot watercoloring that we learned on the bonus day. In this you tape watercolor paper to the table, apply Distress Ink to a large acrylic block, spritz it with water and press it to the paper, hold for a bit for the color to soak in the paper some, and lift it off. Then you use a heat gun to day it. It is swiped with water on a brush and you hold an image stamped on acrylic over it and drop ink onto the damp paper underneath. You then let the color bleed out into the background some. It is dried once again and then you stamp over it with black ink and make it into a card. I chose to border the panel with gold paint pen, added some of this gold to the image and gave it a border of patterned paper. Then I added a sentiment strip cut as a banner, popped up on foam tape. The granddaughter made hers with a purple background and an over-all butterfly background stamp enhanced with peacock blue. My next category to participate in at the County Fair was in the area of rubber stamping and other paper crafts. Wow! Only two cards without an award of any kind. Last month I entered a number of items in the County Fair. Over the next few days I will show the entries and awards in the categories I entered. First up is the Agricultural Products class. This is the first year I have entered any garden produce so it was a very good showing. I was truly saddened to need another sympathy card so soon. I had a single one of the watercolor stamping roses left and it was already trimmed. This got bordered by a matching paper and thus began the layout process. I found a nice, subtle paper for the background and wanted to include a border around it also. Unfortunately, I did not have any more of the border used on the feature. So I used a Distress Marker to color the edges of the white base card and trimmed the background paper to let that color peek out. I found a large silver Dazzles sticker for the sentiment and colored it with alcohol marker while it was still on the sheet. I wanted to use more of the watercolor stamping roses but did not have a sketch upcoming that suited the shape or size that I had remaining. So I abandoned the sketch project for a bit and pulled out some paper scraps to make my own layout. I started with a lavender card base to coordinate with the color of the illustration and added a green swirled paper to work with the leaves. The chevron paper in a neutral creates a nice setting for the bordered centerpiece which is bound by strips of silver peel-off sticker. The sentiment is provided by a silver script Dazzles sticker and the feature panel is popped up on foam tape. Grandmas tend to be rather accomodating with their grandkids and this Grammie is no exception. When some of the grands came to visit one made a special request that I do some crafts with him. Oh yeah! That's a big "Yes". He was working on stamping a scene using some of my hand carved stamps and wanted to know about the process I used to make them. I got out the carving toolbox to show him and he asked if I would carve a stamp just for him. Actual size is about 3 1/2 inches. A challenge over at the OWH blog was to make a card with a penguin - and to use your most original image so everyone wouldn't make near duplicates. No problem there - the only penguin stamp I have is the one I carved several years ago. I started with plain white cardstock and used masking to stamp the penguin three times. The only bit of coloring is the little bit of blue in the snow underfoot. I trimmed the panel so I could give it a red border and made a matching bowtie for one of the birds using 1/8" ribbon. I used some little peg stamps to make the sentiment and added lines with black pen to turn the squares into cubes. This got bordered in red and popped up on foam tape.

A pulse pounding, take no prisoners descent into neo southern gothic horror. When traveling through Resurrection County, watch your step and mind the signs. One false move could be your last. When two suburban couples roll into the backwoods southern town of Enoch for a weekend of all-terrain riding, their camping trip turns deadly at the hands of bloodthirsty locals who don't take kindly to outsiders.

Hi my name is Alex Eliades and this is my personal blog. I spent most of my life in various parts of the UK but currently I live in Cyprus (now back in London). Im not ashamed to admit that Im a bit of a geek and probably spend far too much time in front of my laptops. I help to run an online Forex and CFD brokerage and own a few websites that I run in my spare time. If Im not working Im generally with the wife, doing DIY or riding my bike in the countryside. Ive had a passion for the Internet ever since it helped radically change my life in the early naughties (2000s) but thats a long story. For some reason I often find myself tinkering around with Linux, web applications, cars or crypto-currencies in my spare time. I believe in setting goals, openness, sharing ideas, efficiency, education, honesty, equality, statistics and a long list of other stuff that define who I am. I am an advocate of the paperless office, promoting young people, environmental and social responsibility, giving credit where its due and helping people when I can. In my eyes the most successful people are the ones that can identify strengths in others, then encourage and inspire them to do work they are good at. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Business IT from Portsmouth University in the UK, then went on to start a career in software solution sales but after some years realised that it wasn’t my calling in life. The fact that I was a closet techie and developed websites in my spare time was probably a sign that my future didn’t lie in sales. Anyway it was an awesome ride, I travelled all over the UK and met loads of interesting people on the way. The turning point came during my time working at a cool web agency in Tech City, East London with some really inspirational people, not to mention my just as inspirational friends that were close to me back then. During my time there I discovered affiliate marketing, learned a bit about SEO and was surrounded by techies, usability gurus and digital strategists. It was at this point I knew that my future was with the web and I created my first website that produced me a regular income after leaving. I moved to Cyprus, worked for the family business and built up my affiliate business. In 2013 I landed a job doing marketing for an online FX & CFD business. I have worked alongside some industry veterans and learned all I could about this fascinating business. I now work in this field on an outsourced basis while also handling a few personal web projects and I thoroughly enjoy my work. My favourite music includes modern jazz, chill-out, lounge, dance and rock type genres depending on my mood. I used to love watching films but now prefer streaming TV series and my recent favourites include Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Prison Break, The BlackList, The Mentalist, Narcos and Person of Interest. I love being under the sun, outdoors and in a natural environment, especially by (or in) the sea on a hot summers day. My favourite quote is “There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self” by Ernest Hemingway. The reason I like it is because I agree we should always look to improve ourselves and not be compelled with comparing ourselves to others. London is one of the most impressionable places I have lived because the place is alive, full of people at the top of their game and I was lucky enough to have met a load of forward thinking people, which I hope rubbed off on me a bit. Limassol is another massively impressionable City where I lived as my years there helped me understand myself, others and what is really important in life (somethings you just dont learn in London!). Hanoi is another city I visited on numerous occasions and it really woke me up when I saw how people live on the other side of the world. I produced this blog so I could keep a journal and share my interests, ideas and experience with the world or at least anyone that is interested enough to read it!

Say hello to easy apple pie! This classic homemade apple pie is packed full of juicy apples inside of the best pie crust you’ll ever make. There’s nothing fancy in the prep work, which makes it a perfect fall baking project. Ahh, nothing quite says fall like apple pie, am I right? Fresh apples from the local orchard and warm spices that make the house smell so amazing you just want to wrap yourself up in a blanket. I’ve tried dozens upon dozens of apple pie recipes over the years and I have to say, this one here is by far the absolute best. This pie has such a tender, flaky crust and a mile-high dome of apples; it’s a pie that you could imagine seeing in the dessert case of a 1950’s diner. Perfectly golden crust packed full with a mountain of apples. THIS is the ultimate apple pie. I love the ooh’s and ahh’s when you pull such a tall and gorgeous pie out of the oven. So pretty! First off, we start with a homemade pie crust. I have a very favorite version that uses a special ingredient to keep it crazy flaky and tender, and it’s the only pie crust recipe I’ve used for years now. However, if you need something super, super fast you can use store-bought (if you MUST). The pie filling is wonderfully simple, which I think is best with fruit pies. Some sugar to sweeten it up, a few spices to enhance the natural flavor of the apples, and a little bit of instant tapioca to thicken the juices. The texture and flavor of the apples shine through, which makes for the best apple pie. This recipe calls for Granny Smith and McIntosh apples, the combination of which provides a wonderful tart flavor (thank you Grannies!) and juicy texture (thank you McIntosh!). However, the beauty of apples and fall is that you can substitute in your favorite varieties, or head to the local orchard and pick whatever they have growing there. I would recommend mixing and matching the tart and not-so-tart varieties to give the filling a good balance, but other than that, go for your favorites! Apples – We discussed these above, look for a combination of a little tart and a little sweet and soft. Sweetener – Sugar is obviously the sweetener of choice, and you can adjust the amount based on your personal preference and how sweet/tart your particular apples are. Thickener – A lot of fruit pie recipes call for flour as a thickener, but I’ve found it inadequate. In most cases, the pies still turned out runny, which is so disappointing when you spend time making a homemade pie! When I made blueberry pie a few years ago, I used instant tapioca and the filling thickened like a dream. That’s all I use now and it works phenomenally well! Spices – A very modest amount of cinnamon and allspice is used to impart warmth a little extra flavor the pie, along with lemon juice to keep it bright. Can Apple Pie Be Frozen? Freezing Unbaked Pies – Assemble the entire pie and stop before baking. Wrap the pie tightly in two layers of plastic wrap, then a layer of foil and freeze for up to 3 months. You can bake straight from the freezer, but will need to add anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes to the baking time. You can also thaw in the refrigerator overnight and bake as directed. Freezing Baked Pies – Allow the pie to cool completely, then wrap tightly in two layers of plastic wrap, then a layer of foil and freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in a 350-degree oven until warmed through, approximately 30 minutes. My recommendation is to freeze the pie unbaked – it will bake up better and taste fresher than freezing an already-baked pie. It’s my personal opinion that apple pie should only be served a la mode, i.e. with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top (make homemade if you’re up to it!). When the melting ice cream mixes with the syrup from the apple pie, it’s pure heaven. Happy fall baking to you! What are your favorite recipes of the season? This classic homemade apple pie is packed full of juicy apples inside of the best pie crust you'll ever make. Make the Crust: Process 1½ cups of the flour, the sugar and salt together in a food processor until combined, about 2 one-second pulses. Add the butter and shortening and process until a homogenous dough just starts to collect in uneven clumps, about 7 to 10 seconds (the dough will resemble cottage cheese curds with some very small pieces of butter remaining, but there should be no uncoated flour). Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula and redistribute the dough evenly around the bowl. Add the remaining 1 cup flour and pulse until the mixture is evenly distributed around the bowl and the mass of dough has been broken up, 4 to 6 quick pulses. Empty the mixture into a medium bowl. Sprinkle the vodka and water over the mixture. With a rubber spatula, use a folding motion to mix, pressing down on the dough until it is slightly tacky and sticks together. Squeeze dough gently until cohesive and divide into two equal balls. Flatten each into a 4-inch disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes, or up to 2 days. Remove one disk of dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a generously floured (up to ¼ cup) work surface to a 12-inch circle. Roll the dough loosely around a rolling pin and unroll into a 9-inch pie plate, leaving at least a 1-inch overhang on each side. Working around the circumference, ease the dough into the plate by gently lifting edge of the dough with one hand while pressing into the plate bottom with other hand. Leave any dough that overhangs plate in place. Wrap dough-lined pie plate loosely in plastic wrap and refrigerate until dough is firm, about 30 minutes. Roll other disk of dough into 12-inch circle on lightly floured counter, then transfer to parchment paper–lined baking sheet; cover with plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Prepare and Bake the Pie: Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and preheat oven to 500 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, tapioca, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice. Add the apples and lemon juice and toss until combined. Spread apples with their juices into dough-lined pie plate, mounding them slightly in middle. Loosely roll remaining dough round around rolling pin and gently unroll it onto filling. Trim overhang to ½-inch beyond lip of pie plate. Pinch edges of top and bottom crusts firmly together. Tuck overhang under itself; folded edge should be flush with edge of pie plate. Crimp dough evenly around edge of pie using your fingers. Cut four 2-inch slits in top of dough. Brush surface with beaten egg white and sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Place pie on heated baking sheet, lower oven temperature to 425 degrees F, and bake until crust is light golden brown, about 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees, rotate baking sheet, and continue to bake until juices are bubbling and crust is deep golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes longer. Let pie cool on wire rack to room temperature before serving, about 4 hours. You can substitute Empire or Cortland apples for the Granny Smith apples. Freeze the unbaked pie for two to three hours, then cover it with a double layer of plastic wrap, and return it to the freezer for no more than two weeks. To bake, remove the pie from the freezer, brush it with the egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, and place directly into a preheated 425 degree oven. After baking it for the usual fifty-five minutes, reduce the oven to 325 degrees, cover the pie with foil so as not to overcook the crust, and bake for an additional twenty to twenty-five minutes. Update Notes: This recipe was originally published in September 2011. Updated in September 2018 with new photos, a slightly revised recipe, and extensive recipe tips. I have never tried Apple Pie recipe before and this looks very easy to make. Thanks. Hello! Does anyone have the original copy of this recipe before the rewrite? I’ve made this pie two thanksgivings in a row and want to replicate, but I don’t have a food processor, so I always used her “by hand” recipe! Help! Hi Stephanie, Here you go! 2. Sprinkle 6 tablespoons ice water over mixture. With a rubber spatula, use a folding motion to mix. Press down on dough with broad side of spatula until dough sticks together, adding up to 2 tablespoons more ice water if dough will not hold together. Squeeze dough gently until cohesive and divide into two equal balls. Flatten each into a 4-inch-wide disk. Dust lightly with flour, wrap separately in plastic, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 days, before rolling. 3. Remove dough from refrigerator. If stiff and very cold, let stand until dough is cool but malleable. Adjust oven rack to center position and heat oven to 425 degrees F. 4. Roll one dough disk on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie pan. 5. Gently press dough into sides of pan leaving portion that overhangs lip of pie plate in place. Refrigerate while preparing fruit. 6. Peel, core, and cut apples into ½-to-¾-inch slices and toss with ¾ cup granulated sugar, lemon juice and zest, salt, cinnamon, and allspice. Turn the fruit mixture, including juices, into the chilled pie shell and mound slightly in center. Roll out the other dough round and place over filling. Trim top and bottom edges to 1/2 inch beyond pan lip. Tuck this rim of dough underneath itself so that folded edge is flush with pan lip. Flute edging or press with fork tines to seal. Cut four slits at right angles on dough top. Brush egg white onto top of crust and sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar (omit if freezing unbaked pie, see below). 7. Bake until top crust is golden, about 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees; continue baking until juices bubble and crust is deep golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes longer. Transfer pie to wire rack; cool to almost room temperature, at least 4 hours. *Note: Do-Ahead – Freeze the unbaked pie for two to three hours, then cover it with a double layer of plastic wrap, and return it to the freezer for no more than two weeks. To bake, remove the pie from the freezer, brush it with the egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, and place directly into a preheated 425 degree oven. After baking it for the usual fifty-five minutes, reduce the oven to 325 degrees, cover the pie with foil so as not to overcook the crust, and bake for an additional twenty to twenty-five minutes. After years of making mediocre pie crust I have finally made a flaky, tender, flavorful crust with this recipe. This is the best apple pie I have ever made. I used apples from our tree which are sort of sweet/tart. Not sure what kind they are but they were delish!

A tidy adjustable Amber Beaded Bracelet is pop of amber to suit all ages. Beads: Alternating sizes with one centre bead highlighted. This is a lovely tidy bracelet. The mix of colours and shapes and the inclusion of tiny silver spacers between the beads make it a fashion bracelet that would suit all but especially a younger wrist. Each one is different.

Here we have the unique example of a TV Special being a sequel to two different other Christmas TV franchises at the same time. I guess the folks at Rankin & Bass felt they couldn't lose by combining two iconic Christmas characters… in a somewhat non-Christmas special. Here, Frosty makes the jump from traditional cell animation into Rudolph's world of stop-motion animation. We also learn that Frosty and his wife Crystal now have 2 kids, Millie and Chilly. Oh, and they now apparently consider their reindeer friend as "Uncle Rudolph." The villain from Frosty's Winter Wonderland, Jack Frost, makes an appearance, as does the whale Big Ben, who helped Rudolph in Rudolph's Shiny New Year. This is the crossover sequel to top all crossover sequels! Today's song — Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July (Overture) — is the introduction to the special, where you will hear some dialogue between Frosty and Rudolph, as well as a variety of musical themes. Originally designed to be a theatrical film, it debuted in the United States on ABC instead, on July 1, 1979. Talk about attempting to extend a Christmas franchise into the summer months!

Jill McGown, who has died aged 59 from cancer, was one of the generation of crime writers who shifted the genre firmly into the contemporary world. Although she held fast to the traditional skill of well-crafted plots, she brought a modern perspective to characters and situations, creating a series of thoughtful and engaging police procedurals. She will be best remembered for the 13 novels featuring Chief Inspector Danny Lloyd and Sergeant Judy Hill. Theirs was a relationship that encompassed the personal as well as the professional, and Jill's deft handling of its development was one of the keynote elements of the books. Interestingly, it was not until Carlton's adaptation of A Shred of Evidence in 2001 that Lloyd acquired a first name. In the books, he was always plain Lloyd. Her work was critically acclaimed, and many of her peers believe she never achieved the level of commercial success she deserved. The TV adaptation, Lloyd and Hill, was never developed beyond its pilot, despite strong performances from Philip Glenister and Michelle Collins. Jill was born in Campbeltown on the Mull of Kintyre, the daughter of a fisherman and a secretary. When she was 10, the failure of Scottish herring fishing forced the family to move to Corby, a Northamptonshire village then being transformed by the development of the huge iron and steelworks. Much of the workforce consisted of displaced Scots. Jill said of her adopted home: "[It] has Celtic and Rangers supporters' clubs, an annual highland gathering and an accent which has undeniable Scottish overtones, regardless of the forebears of the speaker, who might be Londoners or Lithuanians." Certainly, Jill never lost her own accent even though she would never again live anywhere but the house her family moved to in 1957. After junior school, she attended Corby grammar school, where her Latin teacher was Colin Dexter, later creator of the Inspector Morse novels. Jill went on to Kettering technical college, leaving with few formal qualifications. She worked as a secretary for Corby development corporation, a firm of solicitors and finally British Steel, where she ended up as a counsellor in their voluntary redundancy programme. Eventually, she was made redundant herself. She later said: "So there I was with my redundancy pay and a choice. I could look for another job in a town that had 25% unemployment, or I could take the opportunity to write a novel. I am not adventurous, but this adventure had been thrust upon me and I chose to write the novel." Jill was always happy to mix with other writers and meet her fans. Invariably accompanied by her sister Una, she was a familiar face at conventions and festivals. In a world not short of overweening egos, Jill was an unassuming and amusing conversationalist, with the gift of a sharp but never cruel wit. She is survived by her two sisters, Una and Patti, her niece Katy and great-niece Georgia.

So, we've finally landed here. I know that we've moved around quite a bit over the past few years. That's more because of my continuing discomfort with the various platforms on which I've hosted the site. I don't think that's going to be a problem anymore. I want to take a bigger picture view of my web presence. I have a bifurcated web-life. There's school, and there's me. For a few reasons, I don't want to join these two spheres entirely. At the same time, I do want to present a web presence that's a bit more unified. This place is going to let me do that. Planning for the future. I don't imagine that my toddler is going to start wanting a website anytime soon, but when he does (an inevitability), I'd like to provide him with a space that we have total control over. I also would love to have the ability to provide my other family members with a friendly webspace to showcase their thoughts, creations, and all the rest of it. I want a site that is clean and responsive. This is a major one for me. I spend more time than is healthy thinking about the aesthetics of this space. Squarespace has a great design ethic, and it makes my life considerably easier as a result. As for how this will affect anyone who comes here to read what I write, it basically won't. I've set this week as the cutoff week for moving to this new site, and I have archived the past five years of blogging at this archival space. It's all just thrown in there, so various platform-specific features of wordpress, and tumblr, will not work in the posts at that site. Still, it's super-nice to have a total record of what I've written about, and shared with folks for the last long time. Who knows, I may even pull out the best gems and do something nice with them (once I find the extra time in my life that I have misplaced). So that's it. I hope you enjoy this new space, and I look forward to seeing what it becomes. Feb 20 Listening Interests: "Hello Internet"

The song is about friendship and those woozy middle-of-the-night chats that drunkenly seem so important at the time.

Friday night at Common Ground, Halsey took the stage and treated the crowd to an amazing performance! And it got personal. Real personal. During her performance of "Sorry" she appeared to have gotten overwhelmed and caught up in the moment. Speculation has led folks to believe she was in her feelings about her "ex" G-Eazy, fresh off the break up that she took to social media about on July 3rd. On Tuesday, she confirmed the pair were on a break. And in a story and performance (caught on video by several fans) that has gone viral, you can see that the breakup is still fresh and affecting the singer.

Who needs letters when you have Google? “Hey Google, call Santa.” If you have a Google Assistant, that’s all your kid has to say phone, Mr. Claus, this Christmas. The new feature, added by Google on Thursday, lets you talk to Santa, along with a quirky elf named Gumdrop, while you listen to holiday tunes. Here’s how it works: After giving the voice command, your kid’s call will be answered by Gumdrop, who will put you on hold because Santa, busy man that he is at this time of year, is busy recording a new song in the studio. Once you’re connected to Mr. Claus, he’ll ask you a series of fun questions to help him plan his annual Christmas concert, aptly named Elfstock. Your answers will determine which song the elf band will play for you at the end of the call. For a more visual interactive experience, check out the Santa Tracker (also run by Google), which lets kids follow his journey around the world on Christmas Eve. Or try the NORAD Santa Tracker, which goes live on December 1 and features a cookie meter that tracks how many sweet treats Santa has eaten so far as he delivers his presents.

A simple error made by an employee sending an email to a contracted provider resulted in the unintentional disclosure of the medical records of 3,000 clients of the Community Care Services Program based in Georgia. The Community Care Services Program is responsible for helping people at risk of nursing home placement to remain in their communities and is managed by the Department of Human Services Division of Aging Services. In this instance, it was fortunate that the email was sent to a contracted provider and that the issue was identified and dealt with quickly. The information disclosed included names and certain diagnoses, but no addresses or other personal details such as Social Security Numbers were divulged. Despite the breach being identified almost immediately with patients being informed of the error soon after, this demonstrates how easy it is for a data breach to occur when using email as the primary method of communication within a healthcare organization. The fact that a breach of this nature occurred suggests that there were limited safeguards in place to prevent emails from being sent to the wrong parties. Human error is cited as the biggest concern for healthcare providers [link to white paper once published] when it comes to data breaches, and yet using emails to send and receive electronic protected health information, or ePHI, is routine. While the HIPAA Security Rule does not prohibit the use of email for sending ePHI, the standards for access control, integrity and transmission security require organizations to implement policies and procedures to restrict access to, protect the integrity of, and guard against the unauthorized access to ePHI sent and received via email. Encrypting emails is just one of these requirements, yet a great number of healthcare organizations incorrectly assume that this is sufficient to make their organization HIPAA compliant. However, provisions such as access control, integrity, authentication, transmission security and auditing all need to be taken into consideration to ensure HIPAA compliance. Access controls, such as usernames and passwords, should be strong and changed frequently. For email logins, passwords should be generated specifically for this purpose and there should be no shared login for any email accounts with access to ePHI. One issue with access control is that staff may be tempted to use the same login information across multiple accounts and devices to make it easy for them to remember login details. In addition to this, access control extends to the servers that emails are being stored on and being transmitted through. Emails may not be stored on a mail server that has implemented technical and physical safeguards as outlined under the HIPAA rules to restrict anyone from accessing stored email messages and ePHI. Authentication is one of the biggest stumbling blocks with email, as sending to the wrong person can happen so easily. Another prerequisite of authentication is that healthcare organizations must strictly govern and control which employees are granted access to ePHI and at what level. ePHI must be both secured and encrypted in transit and then in storage to ensure only the intended recipients are allowed to access the data. Again, a small error in an email’s recipient field can result in ePHI being shared with employees that do not have the correct access rights to that information. When receiving an email that contains ePHI, it is unlikely that a user has to go through multi-factor authentication before being able to access the data. Integrity refers to ePHI being protected from being altered or destroyed. It is possible to accidentally delete an email without realizing it and mail servers should be HIPAA compliant to ensure that malicious outsiders are unable to access ePHI at rest or in transit. Transmission security is another sticking point with email, especially when sending and receiving emails on a mobile device that may be using unsecured networks. Finally, auditing is a HIPAA requirement and while emails will provide a log of who sent and received them, discovering who accessed the emails and when, presents more of an issue. At a minimum, organizations need to be able to produce detailed login audit trails that include date, time and IP address of each login, as well as all trails of all sent and received messages. There are more secure ways of transmitting and storing data than email – limiting the risk of a breach occurring. The Sfax cloud faxing platform restricts access to ePHI using multi-factor authentication, with military grade encryption protecting electronic messages both at rest and during transmission. All documents that are transmitted using Sfax come with full reporting to ensure that detailed audit trails can be provided, so you can be sure of the integrity of your patients’ ePHI. Find out more about the Sfax cloud faxing today.

For the past 22 years, I have been the executive director of the Reuse Center at Boston Building Resources. We accept donations of used building materials—such as kitchen cabinet sets, windows, doors, and hardware—that may be left over from a renovation or surplus stock. We make these materials available to low- and moderate-income homeowners at affordable prices. An international reuse conference called ReuseConex was just held earlier this month in the Boston area, and my participation in the conference as a planning committee member and a panelist led me to reflect on some of the lessons I’ve learned about the reuse business over the years. Materials from a dismantled movie set were donated to the Reuse Center at BBR. Homeowners and business donors bring contractors to the party. When seeking donations, we quickly learned that individual homeowners and business owners were eager to give us their used and surplus materials. They were very enthusiastic about the possibility of their unneeded materials being useful to someone else. Contractors were somewhat reluctant at first, due to a perceived added cost of taking the time to carefully dismantle materials (like a cabinet set, for example) rather than continue with the traditional “crunch and dump.” The federal tax credit for donations to a charity helped offset any added expense, and contractors quickly learned that becoming part of the reuse movement is good for business. Potential customers are impressed with the idea of finding a second life for their materials, especially when these materials would help someone in need. The quality of donated materials is impressively high. In 1994, when the Reuse Center was started in two storage trailers, two of our earliest donations were a brand new birch cabinet set with a wholesale value of $15,000 and an amazing variety of new hardware from a distributor that was closing their doors—a victim of the early big-box era. These donations set the standard and demonstrated to our fledgling customer base that we could provide great materials at steeply discounted prices. To this day, I am amazed at the quality of the materials donated to us. Operating a reuse center is a challenging business. It takes a lot of effort to bring tons of used materials through our doors each year, process them, and find them new homes. We need able-bodied people to drive our truck and collect materials, which are often heavy and cumbersome; people to clean, assemble, disassemble, and research prices; salespeople to serve customers; and supporting functions like scheduling, communications, and human resources. The Reuse Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, but we operate like a small business, and, like any business, we experience our share of turnover and headaches. However, we enjoy a diverse staff and customer base, so we have engendered a community spirit that is rare to experience these days. Customers may try to keep our organization their little secret. Word of mouth is the most effective means of outreach for any organization, and ours is no exception. But I have been told on more than one occasion by customers that they choose not to share the secret of our program with others for fear that there will be fewer great products available to them! Reuse Center customers suffer from, and thrive upon, the thrill of hunting for one-of-a-kind items, which can lead to euphoria or frustration. Customers’ ingenuity and initiative are truly admirable. The ReuseConex conference was sponsored by the Reuse Institute and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection. See also "ReuseConex Recap" on the Trash to Treasure blog by Charlie Pioli.

The sounds in "fed" and "vittles" The consonant sounds in "fed" and "vittles" are both made by putting your top teeth on your lower lip and blowing air through your teeth. When we make a /f/ sound, we do not use our voice; the sound is quiet. Put your hand on your throat and make the sound /f/. You should not feel any movement in your throat. However, when we make a /v/ sound, we do use our voice. Put your hand on your throat and make the /v/ sound. Can you feel the vibrations?

Hossen, Md Zakir and Chik, David and Chakraborty, Ashim and Hossain, M. A. (2015) Real-time Mobile Enabled Scheme for Virtual Spectacle Frame Selection. In: 9th International Conference on Software, Knowledge, Information Management and Applications (SKIMA), 15-17 December 2015, Kathmandu, Nepal. Selection of physical appearance related personal item in online shopping is extremely difficult. This research presents a mobile enabled scheme that provides an advanced online shopping experience of spectacle frames selection. The application is developed to automatically detect the face shape of the user from an image, give suggestions of frames based on the shape, and provide a virtual try-on for the user. Active Shape Model has been used to identify the facial landmark points. Mathematical equations have been designed to analyze and map the landmark points to a face shape. Expert knowledge has been used to recommend frames for each face shape. Haar feature based face and eye detector provided by OpenCV has been used to detect the face and identify the position of eyes for virtual try-on. So far this is the best mobile enabled application for real-time frame selection.

Test cricket great Shane Warne says Australia’s new buzz words are nothing more than “verbal diarrhoea”, saying the team should be focused on action rather than talk. Fans were quick to poke fun of the “elite honesty” phrase plastered earlier this week in Australia’s change rooms, while the new players’ pact was also criticised for being too fluffy and cringe worthy. Warne let his frustrations flow while watching Australia’s horrible display against South Africa in Sunday’s ODI in Perth. “Forget all the words, forget the verbal diarrhoea and all that sort of stuff,” Warne said during his Foxtel commentary. “That’s just rubbish, that sort of stuff. Seriously, it makes you want to vomit. Warne said it was important for new ODI captain Aaron Finch and vice-captain Alex Carey to inspire the team. “JL [coach Justin Langer] is there to help prepare the players. The captain and vice-captain get out and say this is the way we’re going to play,” Warne said. “But if the leaders of the team aren’t performing and they’re not setting a good example, that won’t create inspiration from within. It’s as simple as that.

Freehold’s curriculum is planned to enable our pupils to be excited about their learning experiences and become resilient, respectful, honest, empathetic learners who show integrity. To achieve this we start every creative learning challenge question with a WOW event. We then link these to quality texts which allows us to provide cross curricular learning experiences which really broaden our pupil’s experiences and raise their aspirations. We ensure our curriculum provides opportunities to explore, investigate, create and problem solve. We also empower our pupils to develop their own self-awareness as learners with a growth mindset. Although each year group has their own Long term planner detailing all of the subjects in the curriculum here you will find separate long term overviews for each subject.

Blog More Foreclosure Document Problems: Are Cram Downs the Answer? More Foreclosure Document Problems: Are Cram Downs the Answer? From Daily Finance by Abigail Field. Despite the deposition of Wells Fargo (WFC) employee Herman John Kennerty, in which he admits to signing off on foreclosure documents without verifying anything but their dates, Wells Fargo continues to insist it doesn’t have a documentation problem of the sort admitted to by its competitors, GMAC (GMA), JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC) and OneWest Bank. Consumer bankruptcy attorney Thad Bartholow defended the Guevaras in U.S. Bankruptcy Court against Wells Fargo’s claims that they owed $18,600 in mortgage arrears and fees. To prove that claim, Wells Fargo offered a sworn statement signed by employee Tamara Savery that Wells Fargo owned the Guevaras’ mortgage. After Bartholow pointed out that Freddie Mac claimed to own the mortgage, Savery signed a second sworn statement swearing that Freddie Mac owned the loan and Wells Fargo serviced it for Freddie. When Bartholow deposed Savery and asked her how she could swear to two contradictory things, Savery admitted she neither prepared the documents nor verified their contents before signing them. Thad is a Bankruptcy Boot Camp graduate and let me tell you it is no coincidence that many of the stories coming out about the problems in the foreclosure industry include Max’s graduates. Max has been teaching attorneys for several years about these practices that are only know starting to get the mainstream media’s attention.

The incredibly rocky, rhyolitic soils of this Howell Mountain site provide fruit with structure and depth, yet the cool climate produces a wine of restraint and vibrant acidity. An underlying minerality gives the wine a particularly distinctive character and provides another layer of complexity. The appellation has become a favorite of collectors who value the age-worthy capacity of wines from this elevation. “Their Howell Mountain cuvée, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Hershey Vineyard looks profound. With great ripeness and seamlessness, and a huge core of massive fruit, this wine has sensational purity, full body, and a finish that goes on close to a minute. What is amazing with this degree of ripeness is that consulting oenologist Philippe Melka reported that there was absolutely no raisining of the grapes in 2015 and that the tiny yields provided a level of fruit richness largely unprecedented even in other great vintages. This is a beauty to drink during its first 20 years of life. The wine will spend 25 months in 98% new French oak.” – Robert Parker.

Our world is in flux. Today, more than ever before, the private sector plays a critical role in safeguarding a sustainable future for upcoming generations. In 2015, world leaders from all sectors signed off on three major sustainability mandates: The Addis Ababa Action Agenda, the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. The 2015 Agreements provide a comprehensive, global strategy towards a fair, stable and sustainable society. However, a 'crowding in' of private and institutional SDG investment (SDGI) towards the estimated $5-7 trillion in capital that is needed each year to finance the Agenda, is not happening at the right pace and scale yet. We, the undersigned financial institutions, are committed to contribute to the SDG Agenda an view its underpinning 17 Global Goals as a catalytic driver for positive change. We believe that is is in our nest interest, as well as that of our clients and investees, to consider the largest societal challenges of our time in our work an investments. Efforts to date by the undersigned to maximize the positive impact of the -2,800 billion in Euros in assets we collectively manage, are testament to this. This Dutch SDG Investing (SDGI) Agenda serves to reinforce our commitment and to offer concrete recommendations for 'SDGI action' in context of Dutch investment value chains. It articulates milestone achievements to date, priorities that we will collectively undertake, as well as ways in which individual institutions will seek to make a difference. Most importantly however, it identifies areas where we believe that collaboration with the DNB and the Dutch government will unlock greater SDG investment and increase our net positive contributions to each of the seventeen SDGs - including SDG #17 which calls for greater collaboration between public and private sectors. Our hope is that our attempt at articulating a shared national SDGI Agenda will help lead to greater convergence, collaboration, and coordination between a broad spectrum of actors. We are greatly encouraged by the resonance this Initiative has found already with the Dutch government and by the new connections that were forged as a result of our consultation with them.

This year, we had two panoramic selfie installations at the EU open day. Besides the Council of the European Union installation, we had another one set-up at the European Commission. Located on the top of a building on the Schuman roundabout, our cameras had the perfect view on the famous Berlaymont building. For the second consecutive year, we were part of the EU Open Days for the Council of the European Union. This year, we've beaten the 2017 record with no more than 375 panoramic selfies! The Star Gold Coast has been thrilling guests for over 30 years with luxurious accommodation, a world-class 24-hour casino, sumptuous dining, lively bars, and star-studded entertainment. This is arguably the place-to-be on the Gold Coast in Australia! As an Official Partner of the 2018 Commonwealth Games, The Star Gold Coast is the hub of all the action, with themed nights on the lawn, giant screens, live concerts, award-winning dining and the chance to meet some of the athletes. To get the perfect memory of these once-in-a-lifetime moments, attendees have the opportunity to take their panoramic selfie and share it with their beloved ones. Until Sunday, April 15, join us and take the pose in our giant deck chair installed on the Celebration Lawn. Goodyear fly you from Geneva International Motor Show to Miami Beach! We have been requested by Ketchum Agency to install a panoramic selfie system for Goodyear during the 88th Geneva International Motor Show. For all participants who took a panoramic selfie and shared it on Facebook or Instagram, Goodyear offered the chance to win a week for two in Miami (and even more prizes) to celebrate 120 years of history! The panoramic selfie station was highlighted by a nice classic car, the iconic AC Cobra. Last week-end, we partnered with UP Brand Activation to install a panoramic selfie system for Coca-Cola at Jasná Winter Games Olympic Village. Like in the Olympics Games, skiers could step on a podium. With the Instagram contest, the best Olympic selfie of the day won cheering overalls! Come take your panoramic selfie with BX1 at Brussels Winter Wonders every Saturday and Sunday between 3 and 8pm. In collaboration with Eventattitude.

5 Plants That Make Great Holiday Gifts - Kauai Seascapes Nursery, Inc. With Thanksgiving past and decorations sprouting everywhere, it’s safe to say that the holiday season is upon us. With this come parties, good cheer, and gift giving. If you’re looking to give a special gift this year, then one of the plants below could be the perfect thing (because really, no one wants another fruit cake or pair of candy cane underwear). As a special bonus, they’re all easy to grow and look great in a pot. Come along and learn what each of these special plants has to offer. To ensure it lasts through the whole of the holidays, pick one with little to no yellow pollen visible. Water the plant whenever its soil feels dry. Why It Makes A Great Gift: Beautiful, easy to care for, and fits well into holiday color schemes. With a lovely name and an equally beautiful appearance, the peace lily looks at home in any garden no matter the time of year. Though not technically a true lily of the family Liliaceae, this plant is lovely nonetheless, drawing its name from the fact that its white spathe (the white parts that look like flowers) resembles the flag of surrender. Water it about once a week. Relax and admire it. It’s really that low-maintenance. Why It Makes A Great Gift: Looks lovely indoors or out, and its leaves will also “droop” when it needs to be watered. The poinsettia and peace lily are beautiful, but you wouldn’t want to put either of them anywhere near your mouth. This next plant, however, is attractive and tasty. Thought to be a cross between a “true” lemon and an orange, this plant originated in China and has a sweeter flavor and rounder shape than the lemons most of us are used to. Named for Frank Meyer, the USDA employee who brought them to the United States in 1908, the Meyer lemons you see today (and the ones the nursery sells) are technically “Improved Meyer Lemons.” Unlike their predecessors, they are resistant to the citrus tristeza virus. Trust me, though, they’re just as tasty. In general, you can substitute them for regular lemons, though bear in mind that they are less sour and acidic. Give it plenty of water. These trees are thirsty! Be patient. Trees should fruit within the first four years of growing. Why It Makes A Great Gift: Did I mention the lemon bars and sorbet? Continuing with the pattern of edible plants, the miracle berry is next. Also known as the “miracle fruit,” this berry has the curious effect of making sour and bitter foods taste sweet. Native to West Africa, the term “miracle” makes perfect sense, as does its species name, dulcificum (from the Latin word for “sweet”). According to an article from Scientific American, the miracle berry owes its flavor-shifting powers to a molecule called “miraculin,” which binds to the tongue’s taste buds for around 30 minutes or so. Scientists still aren’t sure exactly how this process works, but it sure is cool! While it’s fun to prank friends and family by eating the berry and then chomping on limes or drinking vinegar, consider hosting a “flavor-tripping” party to really take advantage of this berry’s unique effects. Like the Meyer lemon, the miracle berry does best in a warm, humid climate like Kauai’s. Why It Makes A Great Gift: Watching the shocked expressions on your friends’ faces as you bite into a raw lemon without flinching. We saved the most beautiful for last. Orchids are some of the most varied and ancient plants. In addition to their natural beauty, we can also thank them for giving us the vanilla flavoring we now take for granted, which was first cultivated by the Totonic people of what is now Mexico. Orchids prefer filtered light, so place them near (but not directly in) a window if growing indoors. Water them 2-3 times a week, preferably early in the morning. Consider planting them in one of our Eco-pots, which last 3-5 years and are biodegradable. For a unique presentation, mount them on a tree, which is how they grow in the wild. Why It Makes A Great Gift: Look at them! They’re beautiful, elegant, and they smell amazing. Just ask a bee. We hope this guide has given you some holiday gift ideas that are a little different than the norm. If you have any questions you can always stop by the nursery; we’ll be happy to help you find the perfect plant gift. Be sure to keep your eye out for new tips and deals in 2016, and until then, aloha! We love your monthly newsletters. Thank you .

Do HIPAA Resellers Need Business Associate Agreements with their Clients? The HIPAA Omnibus (and HITECH) rules states that a chain of Business Associate Agreements is required from the Covered Entity though each business partner in the chain of companies that have potential access to the ePHI of that covered entity. So, LuxSci would have a business associate agreement with the Reseller and the Reseller would have separate business associate agreements with each of his/her customers. This is because the LuxSci HIPAA reseller is acting as a VAR (value added reseller) of LuxSci, administering his customers accounts. As such, the HIPAA Reseller provides basic support to his customers, can do password resets, can technically access their ePHI via password reset and support processes, etc. HIPAA Resellers that do not want to establish contracts with customers and/or who want to eliminate liability are advised to be “Affiliates” instead. Affiliates refer customers to LuxSci and get a commission for that referral; however, those referrals become direct customers of LuxSci with the Affiliate essentially “out of the loop”. Hence, Affiliates are not Business Associates of these referred customers and have no HIPAA liability or obligations in this respect. What should Reseller Business Associate Agreements look like? LuxSci always recommends that Resellers engage a lawyer to help them create the most appropriate Business Associate Agreement to use with their customers. Why? Resellers differ in how they use our services and who their customers are. Resellers often provide additional value added services and support to their customers that may need to be reflected in the business associate agreements. Resellers may have specific requirements from their customers in terms of the content of these agreements. Use the LuxSci standard Business Associate Agreement as a basis for theirs. Since the Reseller is signing this, having the Reseller’s customers sign something close to LuxSci’s BAA provides consistency. Review the Sample Business Associate Agreement provided by Health and Human Services. When considering if you should add special terms regarding indemnification to your business associate agreements, you may want to consider: To indemnify or not to indemnify – 10 Considerations. If I become a reseller, what types of risks I do expose myself to? As a Reseller and administrator of your customer accounts, you become responsible for their proper use of services. If there is a HIPAA breach due to your actions or your lack of training your customers, then you have direct liability. As such, being very familiar with LuxSci’s services, what you should and should not do with email and web sites, etc., will be very important for you so that you can properly direct and support your customers and limit your liability be implementing best practices and educating your customers. What tips can LuxSci share to its resellers wishing to minimize HIPAA liability? Have your customers sign a Business Associate Agreement with you. Be vary familiar with LuxSci’s Account Restrictions Agreement and ensure that your have a similar agreement with your customers and/or that you educate them with these best practices. Be sure to train your customers in proper use of secure email. E.g. What is and what is not ePHI? When you can use “Opt Out” to send insecure email messages. Does the fact that I sign a reseller BAA with LuxSci mean that I must now ask other Web-related vendors serving my clients to do the same? HIPAA requires that you have a Business Associate Agreement with every vendor use though which ePHI my pass or be stored. So, you should evaluate every vendor that you use and see which ones fit this criteria and get an agreement from them … or change vendors. HIPAA Business Associate Agreement: Do I Need One? This entry was posted on Thursday, March 27th, 2014 at 11:59 am and is filed under LuxSci Library: HIPAA. You can skip to the end and leave a response. Pinging is currently not allowed.

The Ptolemic Period included several queens in Egypt named Cleopatra, the most famous and influential being Queen Cleopatra VII. Cleopatra was the daughter of Ptolemy XII (Ptolemy Auletes) and Cleopatra V. During her lifetime, Cleopatra served as the last pharaoh of Egypt, spoke nine languages, married two of her own brothers (as was custom in the royal family), won a Civil War against her brother, Ptolemy XIII, was mistress to and fathered a son (Caesarion, Ptolemy XIV) with Julius Caesar, and met and married her love, Mark Antony. Cleopatra’s reign ended with her suicide, at the age of 39, after she and Antony were defeated by Octavian, Caesar’s heir, at the Battle of Actium. It is believed that she chose the bite from a Egyptian cobra snake (asp) as the means of her death to ensure her immortality as a goddess. Cleopatra"s father and mother both were children of the same father, one by a wife, one by a concubine. Therefore, her family tree has fewer branches, some of them unknown. You will see the same names crop up frequently going back six generations. Cleopatra III was the daughter of a brother and sister, so her grandparents and great-grandparents were the same on both sides.

The “big news” for stock markets in the third quarter was… news didn’t seem to matter. Consider the significant events that occurred during the quarter that had little discernible effect on markets’ steady upward march. Attacks on civilians in in Europe and North America, heightened geopolitical tensions, military posturing, and verbal confrontations between the leaders of North Korea and the U.S. barely caused the stock markets to shudder. At the same time, markets hardly paused while a massive earthquake rattled Mexico and a trio of hurricanes devastated the Caribbean and southern U.S. An announcement from the U.S. Federal Reserve that it will start shrinking its swollen balance sheet, heated rhetoric from Washington, and NAFTA renegotiations all failed to get markets excited. So the low volatility of 2017 continued to reign. This year, only 4% of trading days on the S&P 500 have seen moves greater than 1% in either direction, and we’ve yet to see a single day with a move of greater than 2%. Such low volatility is well outside historic norms. Over the past decade, a typical year sees roughly a quarter of its days with moves larger than 1%, and 7% of its days with moves greater than 2%. In September, the intra-day trading range for the S&P 500 narrowed even further, as day-to-day highs and lows averaged only 0.4%, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. We don’t expect the markets to be this tone deaf to global and geopolitical events forever. What did stock markets care about this quarter? Earnings. Specifically, strong Q2 results and a bright outlook for global synchronized growth. North American equities were broadly supported by better-than-expected corporate earnings growth. The result was a slow and steady climb. In the U.S., it was the continuation of a steady march forward (in Q3, the S&P 500 hit its 39th new closing high of 2017). In Canada, the quarter started slowly, as the S&P/TSX Composite waited until September before rebounding from a lackluster spring and summer. After muddling along for much of 2017, the S&P/TSX Composite rallied to post its strongest monthly gain since July 2016, rising 3% percent in September. The large Canadian energy sector was the top performer. Oil prices rose sharply in September on the back of improving fundamentals (tightening supply and strong global demand) and a weaker U.S. dollar. Synchronized global growth should act as a tailwind for Canadian equities and cyclical resource stocks in particular. The Canadian financial sector also enjoyed a strong month of September. Recognizing Canada’s strong economic momentum, the Bank of Canada (BoC) hiked interest rates twice in the quarter. In July, the BoC raised rates for the first time in nearly seven years, hiking by 0.25%. More surprising was the move to raise rates another 0.25% in September, effectively removing the stimulus that was added during the oil price slump. The higher rates boosted Canadian bank and insurance stocks. Conversely, the spike in yields caused a downturn in the Canadian bond market. Rising yields also led to strong Canadian dollar appreciation (up over 7% vs the U.S. dollar on the quarter). Within fixed income markets , the Canadian corporate bond index performed best. The shorter duration of the corporate bond index (relative to the broader Canadian bond index) meant it was less sensitive to rising rates. Globally, central banks continue to lean more hawkish (toward raising rates and/or reducing economic stimulus), putting upward pressure on global interest rates. There is a chance the BoC will raise rates again before the end of the year. Canada’s economic data has been better than expected and oil prices are holding in at levels above US$50. However, BoC Governor Stephen Poloz and other representatives have stated they are carefully monitoring the impact of the rapid rate hikes to see how the economy digests a stronger loonie and higher yields. Additionally, geopolitical risks related to North Korea and other countries could halt the rise in rates faster than expected. In other central bank news, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced its plan for balance sheet reductions starting in October. Fed chair Janet Yellen voiced her concerns about tightening “too gradually,” which put the possibility of a December hike back on the table. Meanwhile, Mario Draghi, president of the European Central Bank (ECB), revised the ECB-forecasted inflation expectation lower and made no changes to the policy rate at this point. Regular readers know we often highlight the benefits of a long-term focus when it comes to capital markets and the economy. We believe this will serve investors particularly well as economic data rolls in over the coming months. Specifically, we anticipate that economic data (particularly from the U.S.) will be skewed to the downside due to the particularly damaging hurricanes. Further on, we may then see a temporary boost to the data as rebuilding takes hold in hurricane-damaged areas. We generally have a positive outlook regarding North American equity markets. Consumers are in a healthy position, we are seeing a rebound in business investment, and heading into hurricane season the U.S. economy had been growing at decent clip. What’s more, the outlook for global growth looks positive and synchronized. Overall, we expect underlying economic trends to remain positive and supportive of equity markets, while fixed income investors may face the headwinds of rising rates.

Today’s post is by one of our Master’s students, Josh Laird. Josh is a first-year student who is conducting research on taxonomic diversity associated with hydrothermal vents in the Pierre Shale. Josh discusses his work with a significant invertebrate collection. Currently I am in the process of curating the portion Bishop Decapod Collection that is stored in the Museum of Geology. The collection is dominated by crabs and lobsters from the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway, mostly from the Pierre Shale of South Dakota. It is not an exaggeration to state that there are thousands of individual specimens in this collection. All collections have their own unique hurdles to overcome in order to successfully integrate into the main body of collections and the Bishop Collection is no different. Challenges present in two ways: 1. Unpacking and storing thousands of concretions, and 2. Making the specimens and their associated information easily located and utilized. When unpacking specimens it is possible to find everything from individuals that have been displayed on a museum floor, to sample bags of fragmented lobsters with sediment, and even unbroken, ten pound concretions. I remove these specimens from their original containers and place them into acid-free paperboard boxes and/or glass vials. Specimens are then stored by locality and given a catalog number. Assigning a catalog number can surprisingly be much more difficult than I at first expected. Depending on the nature of the specimens they are assigned catalog numbers differently. Many times there are hundreds of specimens from a single locality. As such, many specimens do not have very much, if any, information specific to the individual. These specimens are grouped together as a single “lot” of many specimens and assigned a single catalog number. When specimens are fragmented, or have their own information (such as species identification, photographs, etc.) they are given their own catalog number to keep information together and prevent fragments from becoming lost. A single Linuparus sp. specimen on the left was assigned a single catalog number because it had unique information and fragments that could be lost in a general lot. On the right, thirty-nine crabs in concretion were placed in a lot and assigned a single catalog number. Once a specimen is assigned a catalog number, I input all of the associated information into the Specify Database for the museum. We use this database to digitize information such as where specimens were collected, who collected them, etc., as well as keep track of where specimens and their associated information are stored in the building. Currently I have assigned nearly 350 catalog numbers to this collection and I feel it’s safe to say that the finished project will include at least 1000 numbers. In the next stage of this project, Specify will also be used to store scans of original information for the specimens. A Linuparus sp. abdomen and its associated information which will be scanned and connected to the specimen through the Specify database.

Saint Agapitus, Bishop of Rome, was a zealous adherent of Orthodoxy. By his pious life he won the general esteem and was elevated to the See of Rome in the year 535. The Gothic king Theodoric the Great sent Agapitus to Constantinople for peace negotiations. Along the way, Saint Agapitus encountered a man who was lame and mute. He healed him of his lameness, and after receiving the Holy Mysteries the mute one spoke. After arriving in Constantinople, the saint healed a blind beggar. At that time, a local Council was convened in Constantinople. Saint Agapitus participated in it and zealously defended the Orthodox teaching against the heretic Severus, who taught that the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ was subject to decay similar to every man’s body. Saint Agapitus died at Constantinople in the year 536.

We present an approach to improve simulation results by automatically mapping the network topology of real wireless networks into a simulation environment. We basically target two problem domains: First, simulations are often used with rather arbitrary configurations, i.e., the used settings may strongly deviate from realistic setups. Secondly, and as our key motivation, we aim to use the simulator to experiment with different algorithms and settings in parallel to an existing sensor network installation. That means that we want to exactly rebuild the real network in order to estimate the performance of our new settings before deploying them into the network. In our demo, we show that not only the physical environment influences the propagation of radio waves, but also the hardware. These changes are incorporated in realtime into our simulator. Even though the reasons for the strong variations are out of the scope, the consequences for the sensor network are significant. © 2011 Authors. Strübe, M., Böhm, S., Kapitza, R., & Dressler, F.

Having a house is considered to be 1 of the best accomplishment and investment you’ll have. For sure you want all the best from the construction to the designs and other necessary details. To start off a home is to ensure a high quality made roofing. Since the roof shingles is exposed to extreme climate modifications, they are susceptible to damages. One of the major causes of shingle damages is the freeze and thaw cycle that happens during the winter season period. As the snow melts throughout daytime, the drinking water runs down the roof. The water is then frozen throughout chilly evenings and then melts down once more the next working day. Soldier – whether or not you are at war or not there is the ‘intensive’ training. Up at dawn, with bags full of bricks and operating about the woods. Absolutely nothing like the assault course you may have a go on for a hag or hen do. Once you’ve got all the training under your belt you’re flown off to some of the most harmful corners of the globe to get shot at. All of a sudden the commute to you workplace doesn’t appear so poor. Call a minimum of two references and examine the projects completed. Ensure to notice consistency of their function. Don’t neglect to ask for about harm and other possible problems within the roof.

One of cryoSPARC's staple features is it's job builder, allowing you to quickly create jobs by simply dragging and dropping the outputs of one into the inputs of another one. In cryoSPARC v2.3, we've revamped the job builder to make it more powerful than ever, allowing you to access output data a lot easier and have more control over specific output data. This tutorial builds off of the introductory T20S tutorial, which takes you through the process of running a workflow in cryoSPARC. Please read through it before proceeding. Before we introduce the new job builder updates, let's dive into some details about how data is stored and used within cryoSPARC. CryoSPARC handles bookkeeping and management of all files, inputs and outputs for every job type. The structure of inputs and outputs in cryoSPARC is designed to allow flexibility while removing ambiguities. In cryoSPARC, the basic unit of data/metadata transferred betwen jobs is an item. Every item has a type, for example an exposure, particle, volume, mask, etc. Every item also has properties, with each property having a name (eg. ctf) and sub-properties containing actual metadata values (eg. ctf/defocus, ctf/astigmatism, etc). Collections of items with the same type and same properties, constitute a dataset. A dataset is essentially a table, where each row is a single item, and columns are properties/sub-properties. Every job can only input and output datasets. Therefore every type of data/metadata is stored in a dataset. On disk, datasets are stored in the .cs file format, which is a binary numpy format descibed in a later section. for each type of item, the job defines certain properties that will be outputted. Each property is called a result. For example, a CTF estimation job would output a ctf result, containing sub-properties like defocus, astigmatism, spherical abberation, etc. The results that a job outputs are the basic component of what gets connected to other jobs. the job defines certain result-groups - each one is a set of results that describe the same type of item. Thus a job can output a result-group defining particles, with two results, one ctf and another alignments. the job defines input-groups each allowing a certain type of item like particles, volumes, etc. each input-group also defines the number of different result-groups that can be connected to it. In general all the items from all result-groups that are connected are appended together to make one larger dataset that forms the input to the job. So for example, connecting two particle stacks to a single input-group will cause those stacks to be appended together. The reason for this abstraction of results, result-groups, etc is so that in cryoSPARC, most connections between jobs can be made simply at the group level, without having to specify particular files, paths, columns or rows in tables or text files. Subsets of datasets can be easily defined and passed around, and different subsets can be joined together as inputs to a further job. For advanced uses, however, the lower-level results allow a user to connect only certain metadata about an item from one job to another, or override the metadata for certain properties in a result-group. Examples of how and when to use this capability follow. In order to simplify long chains of processing, each job can input an arbitrary number of extra results that it doesn't actually need, and then output those results as "passthrough" metadata that is not read or modified by the job, but just passed along in its output so that subsetquent jobs can use it without needing to be manually connected to an earlier output in the chain. CryoSPARC uses a simple common tabular format to store metadata about all types of items that are managed by the cryoSPARC system. Items include movies, micrographs, particles, volumes, and masks. Each item can have many different properties that are kept track of as the items progress through processing. Only some job types create items: Imports, particle extraction, ab-initio reconstruction, volume tools, etc. Most job types simply load items, process them to compute new properties of those items, and output the new properties. A collection of items of the same kind is called a dataset and can be represented in a single table of rows and columns. In cryoSPARC, each item that is managed is assigned a unique identifier uid (a 64-bit integer) that is used to maintain correspondences across chains of processing jobs and to ensure that regardless of the order that a job outputs items, the properties of each items are always correctly assigned to the correct item. The tabular format that cryoSPARC uses for this metadata and uid is an array of C structures, implemented using numpy structured arrays. These arrays are stored in memory and on disk in the same format. On disk, we store these arrays in binary format in .cs files. Each .cs file in cryoSPARC contains a single table. Each row corresponds to a single item. A .cs file must contain a column for the uid of each item, and further columns define properties/sub-properties of that item. Multiple .cs files therefore can be used in aggregate to define all the properties of a set of items, since the rows in every table all have a uid that can be used to join the tables. In general, when multiple tables are used to specify a dataset, the dataset contains only the intersection of items included in each table. In cryoSPARC v2.3, there is now an outputs tab in the details view of every job. It contains sections for each output group, and within each section a list of all individual results, including passthroughs. You can easily copy the path of an individual output or download the file directly using the copy and download buttons, respectively. It's also now possible to inspect or select different versions of an individual output by toggling the 'versions' section. When building a job, you can drag and drop the header of the output group section to add the whole group. If you'd like to override a particular input slot, you can drag and drop the header of the individual output to a matching input slot. We'll see examples of how this can be useful later in this tutorial. CryoSPARC v2.3 also includes an update to the job builder's inputs section, allowing for not only removing an existing group, but clearing individual input slots that are not required. You can use the outputs tab to drag and drop output groups and individual outputs into the matching slots. It is possible to override both optional and required input slots by connecting matching individual outputs. There's now a requirements section for each group which specifies the minimum and maximum number of groups accepted, and whether or not repeat groups are accepted. The requirements section will be highlighed in green when you start to drag a matching output group and is highlighed in red when you do not meet that input group's requirements. Building a job from output groups covers most use cases. In cryoSPARC v2.3, this works exactly as in previous versions of cryoSPARC v2; simply drag and drop an output group from the overview or outputs tab in the job details view. The output groups list in the overview tab has been updated to be more user friendly and highlight key data. You can now download the latest version of all individual outputs by selecting from the download dropdown menu. The addition of the outputs tab and the updated job builder inputs section allows for connecting low-level or individual outputs into an input group, overriding specific slots. This functionality alows for advanced users to experiment with their data more, and also makes certain tasks in cryoSPARC possible. In this section, we'll cover two such use cases for fine-tuned control over individual results. When building a local resolution estimation job, it's now possible to use the outputs tab and override the half_map_A and half_map_B inputs from different jobs. The example below outlines the three step process of using one input group in the local resolution estimation job builder to populate volume data from three separate jobs. If you use the downsample particles job to shrink particles to make other jobs such as 2D classification run faster, you will end up with a subset of particles later on but need to reference the original (non-downsampled) particle data when running a refinement to get full particle resolution. In this case, you can use the outputs tab and override the particles.blob input slot with the non-downsampled data that you previously connected as an input group. We're excited to be adding this new functionality into cryoSPARC; it makes accessing data and creating custom jobs easier than ever. If you have any feedback or questions about the new job builder, feel free to consult the cryoSPARC discussion forum.

How Much Does a Stone Countertop Cost? Natural stone countertops can be made from many different types of stone, including marble, slate, limestone, travertine, soapstone, sandstone, and even semiprecious stones such as onyx, agate, and rose quartz. Because no two slabs of natural stone are identical, each stone countertop is unique. Of the natural stone materials, granite countertops are the most popular. For details, see How Much Does a Granite Countertop Cost. Slab stone countertops--pieces of stone custom cut to the size and shape of a countertop -- cost $25-$100 and up per square foot, depending on the type of stone, thickness of the slabs, number of sink cutouts, edging style, and finish used. Natural stone countertop slabs for a typical kitchen with 30 square feet of counter space cost $750-$3,000 or more; professional installation is typically included in the per-square-foot price. Marble slab countertops cost $50-$100 per square foot; $1,500-$3,000 for a typical kitchen. Limestone and travertine slab countertops cost $50-$100 per square foot; $1,500-$3,000 for a typical kitchen. Slate slab countertops cost $60-$70 per square foot; $1,800-$2,100 for a typical kitchen. Natural stone tile countertops cost $6-$20 and per square foot, depending on the type of stone, thickness of the tiles, and finish. (Marble tiles cost $9.50-$20 per square foot. Limestone and travertine tile costs $6-$14 per square foot. Slate costs $7.50-$9 per square foot.) A typical 30 square foot kitchen countertop costs $285-$600. The fabricator should cut sink and faucet holes to specifications provided by the contractor or homeowner. Often there is a choice between types of edges. An industrial grade seal should be applied to the stone by the fabricator. Installation of a natural stone countertop should include a professional pre-installation measurement, preparation of the counters (including leveling and shimming), cleanup, and final inspection. Because natural stone countertops can be susceptible to chips, cracks, and scratches, the countertop may require periodic refurbishment by a stone restorer. Expect to pay $100-$300 or a little more, depending on the type of stone and the size of the countertops. Resealing natural stone countertops can help keep them looking nice and make them less prone to stains and scratches. Sealant costs $15-$20 for one ounce, which treats 50 square feet of countertop. Stone tile can be far less expensive than stone slabs; the material costs less, and a skilled DIYer can install stone tiles rather than hiring a contractor or installer. It takes patience to find reclaimed stone countertops. But by using websites like Freecycle and Craigslist , and by scouting local kitchen counter stores, a dedicated scavenger can reclaim existing stone countertops at a fraction of the cost of new. Getting new sink and faucet cuts in reclaimed stone countertops costs extra. Stone yards sell remnants of stone countertops. These can be found cheap, but getting them cut to size costs extra. Before beginning to price natural stone tiles or slabs, measure the countertop area. Home Depot provides a worksheet to help calculate the measurements. The installer or contractor will do an official measurement later, but a good estimate can give a rough sense of the costs. BobVila.com and ThisOldHouse.com describe the best uses for marble, slate, soapstone, limestone, and other natural stone countertop options. Natural stone tiles can be purchased at Home Depot and at local high end kitchen & bath specialty stores. Decide whether to use custom-fabricated slabs of stone, or if stone tiles will suffice. Slabs have few or no seams, create a perfectly smooth work surface for kitchen counters, and shine elegantly. Tiles can be 2 inches to 12 inches square and require mortaring or fixing to the counter; seams are visible and the surface may not be smooth. Specific types of natural stone countertops are often associated with and named for the region where the stone is quarried; for example, New England slate and Kirkstone. Local stone can be comparatively less expensive due to decreased shipping costs; stone imported from other continents, such as Italian marble or travertine, can be very costly. For semi-precious stone or other high-end natural stone countertops, check the websites of manufacturers like Concetto or Innovative Stone, which include links to local licensed retailers. I am looking for a $25-$30 per SF granite slabs , for APX. 70 SF total Kitchen counter top & island , my budget is very tight . Snow White or Paige.

A council was held in the Fort with the French commander Sieur de Contrecoeur. He had three captains under him, Beaujeu, Dumas and Ligneris. The commandant came up with a plan. Beaujeu would have command of the force that was to repel the British with Dumas second in command. They would meet them on the road ambushing them at the ford where the road crossed the Monongahela. Langlade and the war chiefs objected. The spot was not to their liking. The terrain was two wide and open to conduct the type of warfare they were best at. They were ignored, the plan was set and the council concluded. Returning to their camps across the Alleghany the Ojibwa and their native allies prepared for war in their usual way. War dances were danced and war songs were sung. These were interspersed with long harangues by war chiefs and seasoned warriors containing previous great deeds done in battle. These speeches always ended with a tremendous strike a the war post with a war club or tomahawk and loud shouts of war whoops. This spectacle never ceased to send a chill through their European allies. On this occasion it was the French who watched from Fort Duquesne’s ramparts along with a young English colonial who had been captured three days before. Three days before the young Pennsylvanian James Smith was captured by three warriors, two Delaware and one Mohawk from Caughnawaga. His companion was killed and scalped but he was brought back to the fort a prisoner. He was only 18 years of age. When they neared the fort they gave the victory cry, a long halloo for each scalp or prisoner taken. Hundreds of warriors responded by pouring out of their wigwams shouting and screeching and firing their guns in the air. The French responded to the celebration likewise by firing off their guns including cannon from inside the fort. Smith was awed by the din and thought they must number in the thousands. What was about to come surprised him even more. A great number of warriors began to form two columns. They were all whooping and yelling and carrying sticks. All were prepared for war with faces and bodies painted in various pigments of red, black, yellow and blue wearing nothing but breechcloths. It was a fearsome sight for the young man to behold. One of the Delaware warriors who captured him spoke a little English and told him he must run between the two columns from one end to the other. He said to run fast, the faster the better as they were going to beat him. A shove from his advisor started him racing receiving blows all the way. As he neared the end one blow knocked him down. He tried to get up but someone threw sand in his eyes so he could not see where he was going. Beaten down again he took the warriors blows until he was rendered unconscious. Young James regained consciousness inside the fort being attended to by the post physician. Smith was interrogated by the war chiefs after receiving medical attention. Then the Delaware warrior who spoke English came to see him. He asked his captor why the warriors treated him so badly thinking he had offended them in some way. But he was told that he did not offend but it was just an old custom they had…like saying, how do you do? Smith then asked if he would be permitted to stay with the French and was told he would not but after he recovered he must live with the Delaware and become one of them. When he could get out of bed he made his way around with the aid of a crutch. Meanwhile, General Braddock and his army had left Williamsburg following the road cut by the Virginians the year before. They were an impressive sight to behold. A long column of British regulars, 1,750 in all, dressed in bright red tunics, white helmets and sashes with steel bayonets flashing in the sun. They were followed by 450 Virgina Militia dressed in blue. Interspersed in the column were cannon and howitzers, 600 pack horses and 175 wagons carrying supplies and tools. All of this to supply the newly conquered fort and more. The colonies were hemmed in by mountain ranges which made expansion impossible. But the British had ambitions to do just that and they had a plan. Braddock was to take Fort Duquesne and quickly move on to Fort Niagara. Sir William Johnson was to take Crown Point. William Shirley Sr., Governor of Massachusetts, was made a Major General and was to take Fort Beausejour. This all on the pretense that the French had invaded British territory. It seemed impossible that the plan should fail. The colonies had yet to see an army the size of Braddock’s and the English had population figures on their side. The total white population of New France, from Quebec to Louisiana, was just under 80,000. The British on the other hand had a population of 1.6 million including 200,000 slaves. So Braddock headed for Fort Duquesne with his superior army and his arrogance intact. He had little respect for the colonial militia and even less for First Nation warriors. Benjamin Franklin, who was the postmaster of Pennsylvania at the time, came to see him at Williamsburg. He spent five days with Braddock and warned him of the forest warfare practiced by the First Nations suggesting that he should consider new battle tactics. Braddock replied “These savages may, indeed, be a formidable enemy to your raw American militia, but upon the King’s regular and disciplined troops, sir, it is impossible that they should make an impression.” Braddock was about to get the shock of his life! By the mid 18th century the Ohio valley was a hotbed of activity. The population was made up of many First Nations villages and towns. They included many Delaware, Shawnee, Miami and Wyandotte communities with a few roaming Ottawa and Iroquois bands. The English called the Iroquois in the area Mingoes. British traders had set up trading houses at the larger First Nations’ towns. But the English had more in mind than just trade with the First Nations. They wanted their land for settlement. They had signed the Treaty of Albany with the Iroquois in 1722 that marked out a line dividing their territory with the colony of Virgina. That line basically followed the Blue Ridge mountains. However, Virginian settlers soon began crossing the Blue Ridge and squatting on First Nations’ territory. Many paid with their lives and by the 1740’s the Iroquois were so frustrated with their allies, the British, that they were ready to declare all out war on Virgina. In 1743 the British paid the Iroquois 100 pounds stirling for any territory claimed by them in the Shenandoah Valley. The following year under the treaty of Lancaster the Iroquois sold the British all of the Shenandoah Valley for 200 pounds of gold. At the Treaty of Logstown in 1752 the Iroquois recognized English trading rights in all of their territory southeast of the Ohio River. The French saw the Ohio River Valley as French territory by way of discovery by La Salle and by way of French presence in the territory for a hundred years previous. They saw all this British activity as a violation of the treaty of Utrecht, which at best gave the British only the right to trade with First Nations in their own territory. The British crown complained to the French court in Paris, but this was a long process. Lieutenant-Governor Dinwiddie of Virgina believed the Ohio Territory belonged to the Colonies under Virgina’s original charter. The boundaries in the charter were more than vague so he extended the northern border to at least include the Ohio River and its tributaries. On top of all the activity around trade the English wanted this territory for settlement. In order to facilitate this settlement the Ohio Company was formed. It was an association given a grant of 500,000 acres in the Ohio Valley by the British crown providing they could establish 100 families, build a fort and maintain a garrison there within seven years. The French were not about to sit idly by and let the British take over the territory. Officially the British Crown complained to the French Court at Paris. Unofficially the French were about to take action to reassert their ownership of the territory that gave them unfettered access from Quebec to Louisiana. Duquesne, governor of New France, ordered a French presence in the territory backed by a series of French forts. The French landed an expedition at P’resqu Isle, today’s Erie, Pennsylvania, on the south shore of Lake Erie. It had a fine natural harbor so they build a fort here then cleared a roadway of only a few leagues to Riviere Aux Boeufs today called French Creek. They built another fort here calling it Fort Le Boeuf. The First Nations of the territory saw an opportunity to play one European nation against the other. Although they had a trading alliance with the British they had always been more fully allied with the French. They all went out of their way to help the French move the large amount of heavy supplies to garrison two forts. The only ally the British had in the area that was fully committed to them were the Mingoes. Shortly after Fort Le Boeuf was built a Mingo chief named the Half King arrived and ordered the French to leave the territory. But the French were arrogant and haughty laughing the Half King out of the fort. He was mortified and full of rage against the French. They had made an enemy that were sure to hear from again. In the fall of 1753 Legardeur de St. Pierre arrived to command Fort Le Boeuf. He had just settled in expecting a long and monotonous winter when a stranger arrived on horseback along with the fall rains mixed with wet snow. He was tall, young and brash a mere youth of 21 years. He was accompanied by a much older man, several others with the pack horses backed by the Half King and several warriors. He carried a letter from Dinwiddie introducing him and containing orders for the French to leave British territory immediately. His name was George Washington. St. Pierre afforded the young Virginian Major every courtesy and after studying the document he had presented he replied by letter to Dinwiddie that he would forward his correspondence to Duquesne for consideration. In the meantime he could only remain at his post and follow the orders of his general. Washington struggled through extreme winter conditions to return to Virgina. He finally arrived at Williamsburg by mid January and gave his report to Dinwiddie. It not only included St. Pierre’s letter of response but the information given him by some French soldiers at a French outpost at the mouth of French Creek that the French had every intention of taking the country by force and nothing would deter them. By 1750 the Saulteax Ojibway living in the St. Clair region had expanded. The Ojibwa from Swan Creek expanded across Lake St. Clair and up the Thames River. They had established a village near present day London and one at the mouth of Kettle Creek on Lake Erie. The Ojibway living at the mouth of the Black River, at the foot of Lake Huron, had expanded both east and west. They had established villages on Bear Creek as well as the mouth of the Au Sable River in Ontario. They also expanded west establishing villages at Nepessing Lake and along the Flint River in Michigan. Animikeence or Little Thunder was their leading war chief at this time. Under the Treaty of Utrecht the English claimed they had gained the right to trade with the First Nation allies of the French from the upper lakes. Although the French contested this point if was a certain fact that it did not give them the right to set up trading posts in Ohio country. However, they did just that. British traders moved into the Ohio Valley setting up posts along it as well as its tributaries. They did this under the pretense that it was Iroquois land and as sovereign over the Iroquois they had the right to expand into this new territory. The French claimed it as part of New France, discovered by La Salle and there had been a French presence there for decades. None of this was really true. Ohio country was First Nations lands belonging to the Miami, Delaware and Shawnee nations. The French didn’t really discover the territory as it was never lost nor were the British ever the Iroquois’ sovereigns. Be this as it may the French forged ahead with a plan to oust the English. Monsieur Celoron, major commandant at Detroit was to take a detachment of French soldiers supported by a large force of First Nation allies and clear the region of English traders. The idea was to arrest the traders, confiscate their goods and make the Miami understand that although they could go to Albany to trade with the English under no certain terms could they allow the English to establish themselves in French territory. The plan failed miserably. The Saulteax refused to endorse it saying that because of the close proximity of the Miami many had intermarried and they would have no part in a war against their relatives. Little Thunder also refused to allow French allies from further north to pass through their territory to support Celoron. Celoron pushed ahead entering Miami territory with a few French regulars and a few First Nation warriors. They had a little success in removing a few English traders and their goods but in the process killed two Miami people. These murders only served to stir up the First Nations who were trading with the English and setting them against the French. Meanwhile, Monsieur de Lajonquiere, Governor of Canada, had instructions from France to encourage the Five Nations to destroy the English post at Oswego. He was to convince them that an English post on their territory was an affront to their sovereignty. To accomplish this he went too far by giving the impression that France accepted the Onondaga’s contention that Ohio belonged to the Iroquois and that the French should not establish themselves there without their permission. He did this at solemn council which also included the Christian Iroquois from Quebec as well as the Abenaki of St. Francis and the Ottawa of Michilimackinac. In 1752 de Lajonquiere was replaced by Ange du Quesne as Governor. The French minister wrote to du Quesne with orders from the king. He was to make sure the territory was cleared of English traders and their goods confiscated without causing a war with any of the First Nations, no easy feat with Little Thunder and the Saulteax standing in the way. He was also ordered to do all in his power to destroy the impression of First Nations sovereignty over land and to prevent any consequences that might arise due to de Lajonquiere’s error in judgement. The Fox came under attack from various enemies over the next three years. In 1729 the Mascoutins and the Kickapoo made several raids on their villages. They were seeking revenge for the killing of their two hunters. The next year they were attacked by a force of 150 Frenchmen, from both Canada and Louisiana, and 900 First Nation warriors. The Fox had constructed a fort on a plain situated between the Wabash and Illinois rivers about 180 miles south of Chicago and southeast of present day Peoria, Illinois. They blockaded them in their fort finally forcing them out by starvation. They chased them down killing 200 warriors and 200 women and children. Another four or five hundred women and children were taken captive and distributed among the various First Nations. The year after their defeat in Illinois the nation of the same name attacked the Fox once again at a Fox village somewhere between le Rocher on the Illinois River and Miami country. When the Kickapoo, Mascoutins and Potawatomi heard this they went there immediately. When they arrived the Illinois withdrew and six Potawatomi were wounded and a seventh one was killed. Two Mascoutin were also killed as well as a few of the Fox warriors. They traded insults with the Fox calling out that they would make their supper off the Potawatomi, Mascoutin and Kickapoo. The great Pottawatomie war chief, Madouche replied it was the Fox that would make food for all the nations. Then the Illinois returned to join the fight and some time later the Fox withdrew. In the summer of 1732 the Wyandotte, Ottawa and Potawatomi from Detroit made a sortie into Fox country. They split into two groups. The first group contained all the Wyandotte and about ten Ottawa warriors. They were the first to arrive on the shores of Lake Marameek where the Fox had constructed a fort on a tongue of land between the shore and an impassable wetland. Lake Marameek is undetermined but there is a Maramee River about 20 miles south of St. Louis, Missouri. They held back until the next day when, at daybreak, they sent a party of five or six to scout near the palisade. A woman came out and they killed her. When the Fox saw this they sortied out of their fort but were ambushed by the larger force. They had four warriors killed and a few more wounded so they retreated back into their fort. The next day the rest of the Ottawa and Potawatomi arrived and they brought the le Rocher Illinois with them. The Fox came out to meet them again and three Wyandotte were killed and a few of their allies were wounded. The Fox retreated again into their fort. The Wyandotte called a council and it was decided to parlay with the Fox. They determined that a Potawatomi chief should go into the fort and propose that the Fox surrender and they would spare their lives. When he delivered this proposal the Fox told him they did not trust them to keep their word. Instead they proposed that the war party from Detroit should withdraw and the Fox would stay quiet in their fort until the following spring at which time they would come to Detroit or the St. Joseph River to settle up for the lives lost. This is how the whole affair ended. However, the Wyandotte sent their greatest chief La Forest to Montreal to ask the Wyandotte of Lorette and the Iroquois of the Lake of Two Mountains to join them in a war on the Fox to settle the matter. The Fox had lost their allies and were being refused asylum by their once friendly neighbors the Sioux and the Winnebago. The French were attacking them as well as all the nations around them. By 1732 they were in poor shape indeed.

Invention Ideas for Students and How Think of New Inventions. Great invention ideas for students, and even adults and how to come up with new invention ideas. Invention ideas for students and ways to come up with new product ideas. They say that the mother of invention is necessity. I've found that to be true over my 40 years or so of being an inventor. Another way of putting it is; find a need and fill it. So the best time to think of an invention might be that moment when you are thinking to yourself “I wish there was an easier way to do this”. At that moment stop and think of all the possible ways the task could be made easier or eliminated. Get creative - Use your imagination! One thing I like to do when I discover a task that I find tiresome or boring or difficult, is to imagine the wackiest crazy ways of solving the problem. This often leads to interesting ways of doing things. It never hurts to use your imagination. Imagination is like a muscle, the more you use it the easier it gets. Imagination is tied to creativity. If you can't imagine something then I can guarantee you that you won't create it. First you have to imagine it, and then you can bring it to reality. I've compiled a list of interesting invention ideas…maybe something on the list will spark you imagination and lead to that one-in-a-million idea that becomes a real invention. New kind of toothbrush Example of wild idea: Develop an ultrasonic transducer to clean your teeth like those ultrasonic cleaners used by jewelers. Pop it in your mouth with some water and hold for 30 seconds…. Stay-Open-Freezer Bags Put wires in the plastc bag about where the zip lock thingy is so you could bend the wires to hold the bag open while filling with soup or whatever. Audio Sneakers Build audio circuitry into kids shoes so when you take a step the shoe makes a sound such as Clip-Klop, or squish squish, and make a few selectable sounds. Diaper Alert: Make diapers change color when they get wet, so you don't have to poke your finger in to see if it is wet and needs changing. Iphone amplifier: Create a case for the iphone that has an amplifier so you can easily hear your Iphone without having to hold it up to your ear. Teflon Tape Dispenser: A dispenser that would make it easy to find the end of the tape and to cut it off where you want it. Teflon tape used in plumbing is a real pain to use. What do I do after my great idea? Once you've had that brilliant idea, then what to do? Well there are several things that need to be done but in what order is difficult to determine ahead of time. In some cases your first step would be to build a prototype. This would tell you if it could be made economically and how well it works. For other inventions you might want to check first to see if it is already patented. I recommend using Google's patent search service. With some ideas you would want to find out first if there was even a market… if no one wants it then why bother? If it's a really good idea, and people want it, and you can't find anything like it by doing a patent search on Google, then the next step would be to have a professional patent search done by a reputable patent attorney. It will cost you about $500, but it's worth every penny.
