l'alçada en el joc és un gran avantatge.
En el cas dels vehicles terrestres, la munició és finita. Quan dispares, et surt una creu blanca, i quan apuntes a un tanc enemic la creueta es pot tornar verd o vermell. Si està de color verd, vol dir que el projectil pot penetrar el blindatge enemic, i si surt vermella, vol dir que no ho pot fer, per tant, si dispares, el tanc enemic no sofrirà cap mal. Quan el teu tanc està danyat et poden passar dues coses. La primera és que el tanc se't pari i s'arregli automàticament, i l'altre és que et doni l'opció d'arreglar-lo quan vulguis amb la tecla F (tecla predeterminada en PC). Si has investigat el vehicle que estàs utilitzant prou, quan aconsegueixin uns certs punts, et deixarà controlar un avió durant un minut.
En el cas dels vaixells, la principal diferència és que et surt on has de disparar el torpede per impactar en el vaixell enemic sempre que el vaixell segueix la trajectòria i velocitat constantment. Tampoc hi ha munició infinita.
Realista
El mode realista és el mode de joc que combina l'arcade i el simulador. Per exemple, en aquest mode veus amb blau el nom de cada jugador aliat sobre el seu tanc/vaixell, però el nom dels enemics no el veus, és a dir, que només el pots identificar a ull nu, tampoc surten en el mapa, això només passa quan un aliat detecta a l'enemic amb els prismàtics. En el cas dels avions, sí que pots veure els enemics gràcies a la icona vermella que els hi surt a sobre amb el seu nom, model de l'avió i distància a la qual està de tu.
En el cas dels avions, com he dit abans, sí que els veus amb la icona vermella a sobre, però Guiu, el joc no et diu on has de disparar per impactar en l'avió enemic. Si llences les bombes o els coets força arran del terra, és possible que l'ona expansiva en danyi l'avió, per això et pots modificar el temps que triguen a detonar per poder escapar de la seva ona expansiva. L'aigua i l'oli del motor se sobreescalfa ràpidament, sobretot si utilitzes la potència d'emergència (PDE). La resistència del pilot respecte a les forces G és molt realista, igual que la de l'avió, ja que segons el model, com per exemple el spitfire te les pots partir molt fàcilment.
En el cas dels tancs, una característica del mode realista és que en apuntar amb la mira telescòpica, no et surt quina és la possibilitat de penetració. A més a més, no indica quina és la caiguda de bala i, per tant, has de prémer la tecla que et calcula a quina distància estàs de l'objectiu i després has de posar la mira a una alçada determinada. A part que el moviment del tanc i la seva potència és molt més reduïda que a arcade, ja que allà s'ha disminuït molt la realitat per fer-ho més divertit (en arcade).
En el cas dels vaixells, no indica a on has de disparar els torpedes per impactar en el vaixell enemic, i la velocitat també està reduïda.
Simulador
El mode de joc Simulador és el més realista, tot i que no arriba al 100%. És a dir, que hi ha aspectes molt reals, i hi ha d'altres que no ho són tant. Per exemple: els avions es controlen des de la cabina, però en el cas dels tancs es fa amb la càmera en tercera persona. La mobilitat dels vehicles també està molt redu | [

ïda. En cap moment et surt la icona vermella sobre els enemics, ni tampoc la verda sobre els aliats. És a dir que hauràs de reconèixer els enemics segons el model del tanc, els símbols de les ales dels avions, o la bandera dels vaixells. La resta és molt similar al mode de joc realista.
Batalles
Com és d'esperar, al joc hi ha diferents tipus de batalles, que són els següents:
Batalles aèries arcade/realistes
Batalles terrestres arcade/realistes
Batalles de vaixells arcade/realistes
Batalles Simulador
Assalt arcade aèri/tancs
Guerra mundial
Lliga War Thunder
Esdeveniments i tornejos
Batalles personalitzades
Esquadró arcade esdeveniments
Esquadrilla realista esdeveniments
Tipus de tancs
Al War Thunder hi ha tota mena de vehicles, per fer de les batalles, un espai variat. Aquests tipus són: Tanc Lleuger, Tanc Mitjà, Tanc Pesat, Antiaeri Autopropulsat, Destructor de Tancs i Portador de Míssils Antitancs. Cada un d'ells és diferent de l'altre. Els tancs lleugers són més ràpids, però manquen de blindatge i no acostumen a tenyir un canó molt potent. Els tancs pesats són aquells que estan molt blindats, tenen un canó força potent, però no són gaire àgils. Els antiaeris, com el seu nom indica, són molt efectius contra avions i helicòpters, però no tenen ni molta perforació, ni molt blindatge, per tant, són quasi inútils contra tancs. I per últim, els destructors de tancs i portadors de míssils antitancs guiats, hi ha dues maneres de controllar el missil una es amb les tecles i l'altra es amb el ratolí.
Tipus d'avions
En el cas dels avions hi ha molta varietat. Aquests són els tipus d'avions que hi ha en el joc: Caça, caça de reacció, avió d'atac, bombarder de gran autonomia, avió torpeder, bombarder en picat, bombarder de primera línia, bombader lleuger bombarder de reacció i interceptor.
Tipus de vaixells
Com que els vaixells es van introduir en el joc fa relativament poc temps, la varietat de vaixells és molt pobre, però aquests són els tipus: Llanxa torpedinera, llanxa canonera, canonera blindada, llanxa canonera torpedinera, caça submarins, barcassa Antiaèria, barcassa naval, destructor, fragata, creuer lleuger, creuer pesat i Cuirassat.
Nacions
Hi ha diferents nacions: els Estats Units, Alemanya dintre seu podems trobar vehicles del Tercer Reich, Alemanya occidental i de la Republica Democràtica Alemana, U.R.S.S. on podem distingir de l'epoca Sovietica i Russa, Gran Bretanya, Japó on podem distingir de l'época imperial i moderna, Xina on podem distingir de la República Popular de la Xina i República de la Xina, Itàlia on podem disntigir de la monarquia i república, França on podem distingir de les repúbliques i del Govern de Vichy, Suècia i Israel. Les primeres nacions que es van afegir al joc van ser les 5 primeres de la llista, i després es van anar afegint consecutivament.
Arbres Tecnològics
Els arbres tecnològics serveixen per anar investigant els diferents vehicles de tal manera que començaràs amb els més antics i l'objectiu és aconseguir els més moderns i innovadors. L'arbre està partit en rangs (tier). L'avia | [

ció té fins a 6 rangs, els vehicles terrestres fins a 7, els helicòpters també fins a 7, i els vaixells fins a 5. I els diferents vehicles tenen un BR, que serveix per identificar el nivell de cada un.Com funciona? (Exemple avions) Quan comences a jugar amb una nació, els primers avions amb els quals pots jugarà s'anomenen reserva, és a dir, que seran amb els que comencem a jugar. Hauràs d'escollir un avió que estigui un nivell per sota i així, una part dels punts que aconsegueixis jugant, aniran a parar a l'avió, i quan hagis aconseguit tots els punts necessaris, hauràs de pagar amb lleons (la moneda bàsica del joc) una certa quantitat que anirà augmentant respectivament amb el nivell de cada avió. Un cop fet això, ja hauràs aconseguit l'avió.
Gaijin ha dissenyat un sistema que fa que no puguis avançar només amb una línia d'avions. És a dir, que hauràs d'aconseguir 6 avions de cada tier abans d'investigar els avions del següent tier (el nombre d'avions que has d'investigar varia segons la nació). Això ho fa perquè si no tothom tindria jets (el nivell més alt d'avions) i no tindria nivell suficient d'experiència i els veterans no padrina jugar bé amb tires altes on se suposa que allà és on hi ha els millors jugadors.

At an in-person demo with The Den, we couldn't help but think that it looked like a much sleeker version of a computer tower. On the front, are two doors that fold in when it's unlocked and on the top is TechDen's signature bear logo in red. But it's also not an eye-sore, and we actually wouldn't mind keeping it on our kitchen counter or tucked away on the entertainment center.
Perhaps one of the most ideal parts of the hardware is that it simultaneously charges devices as well — with lightning and micro-USB cables available. When a session is over, kids can plug their devices back in and place them back into The Den which will then lock again until the next session.
As promised, AMD now provides a new batch of Ryzen Threadripper desktop processors for enthusiasts based on its refreshed Zen design. Leading this second wave is the 32-core chip AMD teased in June during Computex that uses the same TR4 motherboard socket seating as the first-generation Threadripper chips but consumes a bit more power than the former flagship model.
"With the second-gen AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX and 2970WX processors, AMD adds the new Ryzen Threadripper WX Series above the existing Ryzen Threadripper X Series processors, meeting creators' demands for the ultimate desktop computing power for the most intense workloads," the company states.
AMD's newest flagship chip for enthusiasts, the 2990WX, packs 32 cores with a base speed of 3.0GHz and a maximum speed of 4.2GHz. It also packs 64 threads, 64MB of L3 cache and supports 64 PCI Express 3.0 lanes. It's the first chip in AMD's new Threadripper 2 quartet to hit the market, costing a hefty $1,800 when it rips onto shelves August 13.
Following the 2990WX will be the 2950X 16-core desktop processor on August 31. At half the price ($900), this chip will have a base speed of 3.5GHz and a maximum speed of 4.4GHz. It will have 32 threads, 32MB of L3 cache, support 64 PCI Express 3.0 lanes and consume a lower 180 watts of power.
AMD won't release its remaining set of Threadripper 2 processors until sometime in October. The 2970WX will be a 24-core chip costing $1,300 with a base speed of 3.0GHz and a maximum speed of 4.2GHz. Drawing 250 watts of power, the chip will pack 48 lanes, 64MB of L3 cache and support 64 PCI Express 3.0 lanes.
Rounding out the foursome will be the 2920X 12-core chip costing $650. Packing 24 threads and 32MB of L3 cache, it will have a base speed of 3.5GHz and a maximum speed of 4.3GHz. Like the 2950X arriving August 31, this chip will only consume 180 watts of power when it arrives this October.
The new 2950X and 2920X processors essentially replace AMD's first-generation 1950X and 1920X Ryzen Threadripper chips released in 2017. By comparison, the 2950X increases the base speed by 100MHz and the maximum speed by 400MHz. Meanwhile, the 2920X doesn't increase the base speed over its predecessor but provides a 300MHz boost in its maximum speed.
According to AMD, the second-generation Ryzen Threadripper processors can be air-cooled by the new Wraith Ripper now available from CoolerMaster. The new Threadrippers work on all existing and new TR4-based motherboards with the X399 chipset manufactured by ASRock, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, and more.

2018's tech release schedule has seen some of the world's most advanced smart devices ever, with brand-new processing power, gorgeous screens, and utterly sublime cameras. But the year isn't over yet, and Samsung still has some big announcements to make at its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in Brooklyn, New York.
The whole tech world will be watching as Samsung takes the wraps off its surprises, but what about you? If you're eagerly awaiting a device you're sure Samsung will be showing off, you might want to watch the reveal first-hand. But what's the best way to watch the event? Finding livestreams at the last moment can be tricky and exhausting — but don't worry, we've done the hard work and found the sites you'll need to keep an eye on to watch this year's biggest tech event. Here's how to watch Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2018.
There's no sense rushing off to watch a livestream if you don't have an idea of what might be announced, so what can you expect at Samsung's August 2018 Galaxy Unpacked event?
We've broken down the possibilities in our what to expect at Galaxy Unpacked post in detail, but as a brief overview, we're expecting that the long-awaited Galaxy Note 9 will be in attendance for sure, with the Note 8's successor taking up a large portion of the show. A new Samsung wearable, tentatively named the Galaxy Watch, is also rumored, as is a lower-powered smartphone powered by Google's Android Go operating system. Finally, updates to both the Gear IconX earbuds and the Gear Fit 2 Pro may also be on the cards, as both of those devices are long overdue for an update.
We had previously thought that the Galaxy Tab S4 would make its debut at this event, only for Samsung to prove us wrong by introducing it weeks earlier. Does that mean Samsung is leaving room for other, less expected devices? You'll have to tune into find out first-hand.
Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event kicks off on August 9 at 11 a.m. ET, and it's best to expect the event to take a few hours at the very least. Samsung likes to show off, and with a device as big as the Note 9 likely being revealed, you can be sure they're going to take their sweet time showing it off.
You'll be able to watch the event live from Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked website, as well as a livestream on Samsung's official YouTube account. If you miss the action, or just want to replay a certain part, we'll have the official replay posted up here and in our play-by-play article, too.
If you're not able to watch it live for whatever reason, you can still keep an eye on the action and get regular updates by having some Twitter feeds open. Samsung's official Twitter account will be a good source, and you can keep an eye on our Digital Trends account for regular updates on the announcements.
We'll also have people on the ground at Galaxy Unpacked 2018, and they'll be the absolute best sources for reveal reactions and hands-on experience. If you want to see our latest reactions to the best new devices from Samsung, make sure to follow Jeremy Kaplan, Julian Chokkattu, Brenda Stolyar, Steven Winkelman, and DT Mobile for the low-down on the latest Samsung devices.
Everyone loves new features, and Android gets new ones every year when it's time for a new version.
In 2018, that means Android Pie and there are a handful of new great things to check out on top of the changes that make Android more efficient and easier for developers to build applications. We've picked out the best of these new features that you can look forward to having once your phone gets updated or you buy a new model running Android Pie.
The first thing you'll notice is that the clock is now on the left side so things can be symmetrical around a notch. Developers will also be able to change the status bar height automatically based on how far the notch protrudes into the display area. this should eliminate | [

the letterbox effect. If an app is designed for full-screen display the developers can define an area where a notch would be so that nothing important is placed there.
For developers who don't have phones with notches for testing purposes, they can simulate one on their display using Android's developer tools.
These changes are more important than they sound. HDR VP9 and HEIF are becoming popular and without support, your phone wouldn't be able to display anything using either. More importantly, you wouldn't know why nothing was being displayed and need to troubleshoot on your own. That's not a good experience, so we're really glad to see them supported.
Adaptive Battery learns how and when you use the apps you use and can make adjustments that keep them from eating away at your battery when you aren't looking at them. Android apps have multiple components that often run in the background and doing things that way can cause the processor and network to be active when you don't need it to be.
When the system notices it can step in and manage an app for you it will prompt you, and if you say yes that app won't do anything you don't absolutely need it to do until you open it again. Added with the Adaptive Brightness feature, this means a substantial stretching of the time between charges.
API stands for Application Programming Interface and what this means is that devices with two cameras will now have both be supported by the standard Android camera tools developers use. That means any camera app can support all two-camera setups and you aren't forced to use the included camera app with your phone.
These APIs include features like zoom, portrait/bokeh, and 3D stereo vision as well as the current Android camera functions. This will help developers get their apps working well on devices with multiple cameras, and allow them to build one version that works with every phone. That means you'll see your favorite app get updated to support your two-camera phone much, much faster.
Android Pie introduces support for "more informative" notifications.
We see improvements to notifications with every new Android release. That's understandable, as Android's notifications are one of its strong points and we see their influence in other operating systems, both mobile and on the desktop. That happens when you build something great.
With every new set of features also comes the wait for developers to update their apps to include them. Sometimes they "just work" and other times some of them will work, but usually to get the full extent an app will need to be updated. Changes in notifications for Android Pie are no different.
Android Pie has a new way to control how the display rotates, and it's great!
There are also some changes to Google's interface on the Pixel line. These changes can be incorporated into the user interface by other companies but aren't required as they aren't part of the core Android system. On the Pixel phones, we'll see things like a new volume slider widget that appears on the side instead of the top when you press a volume key, a more colorful settings menu, and a revised layout for Quick settings.
As we see every year with a new version of Android, most of the new features have one thing in common — they need developers to update their apps to include them. This can be frustrating because it takes so long for most phones to get updated. Developers have to prioritize their time, and when the bulk of phones are running an older version of Android, supporting those phones is the priority. Any changes that introduce new features have to be written with backward compatibility in mind so the user-base doesn't have a poor experience.
Because of this, many of your favorite apps will take a while to get updated with the features you want to see. That's better than breaking an app for billions of other phones, though. Eventually, the most popular apps will receive an update to support what's new and everyone is happy.
Available now for the Pixel, Pixel 2, and Essential Phone.
After months of beta testing, yesterday saw Google officially announce the name of Android 9 (Pie) and roll out the new update to all Pixel and Pixel 2 owners. Essential also managed to push the Pie update to Essential Phone owners on the very same day, and we'll likely hear from other OEMs that were in the Beta Program about their update plans in the near future.
It's still early days for Pie, but looking through the AC forums, it would appear that a lot of our members are already rocking the all-new software.

I'm on Verizon if anyone cares.
Same here. 47MB coming from DP5. Installing now!
Got mine at about noon local time today after mashing the update button 3 or 4 times. Unlocked Pixel 2 XL running on Verizon. It looks a little Samsungy in the UI but I'll get used to it pretty quickly. I'm interested to try the gestures and see if I like them.
What about you? Have you downloaded Android Pie yet?
The cult classic from Double Fine is back! Here's what you need to know about Psychonauts 2.
The Game Awards may celebrate the incredible accomplishments of the industry every year, but its show in 2015 captured the attention of fans for a different reason, and it started with an unexpected trailer.
Because of the enthusiasm of Psychonauts' fans, Double Fine Productions announced a sequel to the cult classic platformer. There was a slight catch though: the studio needed a little help from fans to make Psychonauts 2 a reality.
Following Razputin "Raz" Aquato, Psychonauts was set in a fictional government training facility under the guise of being the Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp. Raz gets caught up with the Psychonauts, a group of characters that are gifted with psychic abilities like telekinesis among several others.
What unfolds is a tale that would make most go, "how do they even come up with this stuff?" Like a few classic cartoons, Psychonauts definitely has the vibe of being created under a drug-induced trip.
After learning of a plot to harvest the brains of other Psychonauts to create a psychic-powered army, Raz delves into his friends' minds to free them of his enemy's clutches. The end of the game sees the Psychonauts—Raz included—rushing off to save the leader of the Psychonauts, who has been kidnapped.
Last year, Double Fine released Psychonauts the Rhombus of Ruin, a virtual reality game developed for PlayStation VR, Oculus Rift, and HTC Vive. Rhombus of Ruin picks up where Psychonauts left off and follows Raz's journey to save Grand Head of the Psychonauts Truman Zanotto.
Psychonauts the Rhombus of Ruin was meant to act as a bridge between the first and second game's narratives, but so far Double Fine has been pretty tight lipped about Psychonauts 2's narrative, aside from a few tidbits of information.
Instead of taking the usual approach and crowdfunding the game through Kickstarter, Double Fine did something slightly different. The studio chose to create its own crowdfunding platform known as Fig, where a fan's investment can earn them exclusive rewards and even shares from a game's sales.
With the goal of raising $3.3 million to fund development, over 24,000 backers pledged towards the campaign to raise over $3.8 million in total a month after it was announced.
But even with this success, the game was far from being a reality.
Once again controlling Raz, players will use several of his new psi-powers to explore the minds of others and take on its 3D platforming challenges. We don't know what its levels will contain yet, but rest assured they'll likely be just as eccentric as those in the first.
Dubbed the First Playable, the gameplay seen in the video above is an early look at what Psychonauts 2 will end up being. Commonly referred to as a "vertical slice," this is an area created to fully test the game with all of its assets working together. These include art, animation, tech, design, cinematics, and more. This way the team can view a playable chunk of gameplay as intended in the final product, aside from any tweaks that will come along during the development process.
The First Playable isn't meant as an advertisement for fans so much as it is for the development team themselves. Double Fine gets to view everything working harmoniously to see what needs to be adjusted as they continue to develop and iterate towards the end goal. This isn't a polished build by any means.
As for its art style, Psychonauts 2 is more of the same. It's retaining the series' aesthetic while modernizing its visuals for a release on current-gen platforms. You're still getting the carto | [

Currently Psychonauts 2 doesn't have a firm release date other than sometime after this year, which is about as vague as you can get.
The only way to pre-order Psychonauts 2 right now is through Fig. By pledging $39, you can get a digital copy of Psychonauts 2 on Windows, Mac, or Linux via Steam. For an extra $18 on top of that, you can also get a digital download for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. And if you want to shell out some more cash, you can choose higher tiers to receive extra rewards and content.
Double Fine notes that the $39 will be less than retail price when it launches on Steam, so it's likely that it will end up costing a full $60 once it finally releases.
Chromebooks are taking over, and Microsoft's new Surface Go aims to halt that.
When a company makes a computer "for schools" these days, what that really means is that product is positioned to compete with Chromebooks.
Google's lightweight OS and the inexpensive hardware it tends to live in has been largely responsible for the first reals signs of growth the standard PC market has seen over the last two years, due in no small part to the popularity of these products in school settings. Earlier this year we saw Apple try to appeal directly to this market with a less expensive iPad packed with educational software, and now it appears Microsoft is going the same route with its new Surface Go tablet.
Microsoft's Surface line has always been exceptional, but you pay for the privilege of owning something this nice and that makes buying a dozen for a classroom a little complicated. With the base model Surface Go launching at $399, Microsoft is hoping it will appeal to this market. But how does this experience stack up against a Chromebook? Let's take a look!
If you've never used a Surface before, the build quality of a Surface Go will surprise you. In fact, even if you have a used a Surface before the build quality of a Surface Go will surprise you. This is a well-built machine, complete with a sturdy feel and stylishly polished edges.
The back hinge is better than ever, allowing me to prop up on my lap or on a table at just about any angle. The power and volume buttons on the top of the tablet are rigid, with a satisfying click as you press them in. On the right side, you have the magnetic Surface charging port, a USB-C port, and a headphone jack.
Across the bottom, you'll find the magnetic connectors for the keyboard cover, which does not come included in the $399 price tag. Microsoft offers several options for the keyboard cover starting around $100, but I went with the slightly more expensive $130 Alcantara cover in maroon. Because when you are offered an accessory in Alcantara, you buy it. End of discussion.
There are no Chromebooks which look and feel this nice in this price range. Google makes the infamous Pixelbook, but the $1,000 price tag hardly makes sense to compare here. In this price range, Chromebooks tend to be black or white plastic. The $539 HP Chromebook X2 is almost exactly the same price as a Surface Go with a keyboard attached, and you get the benefit of a 13-inch display over the smaller 10-inch Surface Go.
Naturally, that size increase means a weight increase though, which makes the Surface Go a more portable option. Another solid comparison is the Acer Chromebook Tab 10, which is a standalone Chromebook tablet with no keyboard priced at $339. Comparing Acer's design to what Microsoft has created with the Surface Go is mildly akin to comparing a cardboard box with wheels to a Tesla. To say Microsoft's design in this category is unparalleled really feels like I am underselling it.

Under the hood, the Surface Go is packing a fanless Pentium Gold CPU with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. While most Chromebooks tend to lean on lower powered processors, the specs sheet on your average modern Chromebook is fairly compar | [

able to the Surface Go. The same goes for the display, Microsoft's 1800×1200 resolution display with touch input is pretty close to what you'll find just about everywhere else these days. Where the Surface Go really stands out is the Surface Pen, which you also have to buy separately. Several Chromebooks come with pen input, but none of them offer the accuracy or quality of what Microsoft has built with the Surface Pen.
Battery life on the Surface Go does not hold up to your average Chromebook. Microsoft claims "up to 9 hours" with the Surface Go, where most Chromebooks push 10-12 hours of use with no problem. But again, this is a compromise made to achieve the size this tablet PC currents sets in. If there was a Chromebook made in the shape and size of a Surface Go, it wouldn't likely be capable of the same 10-12 hour push. I'm not sure how much that matters to people buying things for classrooms, but for someone like me who appreciates having an ultraportable machine to take places the size and weight really does matter.
Apps are all that matter.
When you set up a Chromebook for the first time, it takes about three minutes. When you already have a Google account and have already used a Chromebook before, that set up time is cut in half. Google's minimalist approach to Chrome OS makes it so ridiculously easy to set up a Chromebook it makes everything else feel slow and terrible, and the Surface Go is no exception. Setting this computer up the first time took almost 20 minutes, and when that was done what I got was a version of Windows that was almost useless to me.
Windows 10 S doesn't allow you to install anything that isn't in the Microsoft Store, and the contents of the Microsoft Store still isn't great by modern standards. Fortunately, switching from Windows 10 S to Windows 10 Home is much easier than it was when the Surface Laptop was released, but by the time this computer was ready to actually be used a full half hour had passed.
You'll find a lot of reviews for the Surface Go saying very nice things about the performance of the computer throughout daily use, but an important caveat of those reviews is they are all using the higher end and more expensive version of this machine. The base model claims to be faster than the Surface 3, but my testing yielded different results. If I had three or four Chrome tabs open with Slack running in the background, a fairly standard set up for my workflow, the Surface Go would slow down considerably.
In some places, there would even be a lag between my pressing keys on the keyboard and the letters appearing on the screen. Running the same test with Edge instead of Chrome, I was able to have five tabs open before the same problem would occur. This computer is clearly not a workhorse, but I consider the workload I put this machine under to be quite modest. And, to be frank, I can do the exact same thing on a Chromebook or an iPad Pro and never see a moment's problem.
Chrome OS is much closer to a mobile operating system than Windows, and that reflects in how apps look and feel.
Part of the difficulty in comparing a Surface to a Chromebook is the way apps run is so very different. On a Surface, everything is a PC app built for Windows and not necessarily optimized for lesser processors or systems with less RAM. On a Chromebook, everything is either built to exist as a mobile app and optimized for a mobile processor or exist in the highly optimized version of Chrome built for this OS. Chrome OS starts out as a browser and lets you add things on, and the apps simply don't need the kind of processing power you get from a traditional desktop CPU.
Because Windows is trying to fit a legacy experience into a modern hardware profile, these software struggles can be exaggerated based on how modern or optimized the apps you need are. Chrome OS has the opposite problem, the apps are all going to run pretty well, but because most of them are built for phones they don't always look great on a giant tablet screen and in some cases refuse to orient correctly to the angle you are holding your Chromebook.
The benefit to Microsoft's legacy approach is clearer when doing things you simply can't do on a Chromebook. I'm currently running a full version of Adobe Lightroom on the Surface Go, where I have to use the mobile-focused Lightroom CC on my Chromebook. I can use either fairly interchangeably, and Lightroom | [

on the Surface Go is fairly slow when I'm processing multiple images, but having access to every feature is occasionally important to me, and is only possible with the Desktop version of this app.
A less niche example can be found in gaming. Through the Xbox Play Anywhere system I'm able to install the Xbox One game Cuphead on my Surface Go, pair an Xbox Controller, and play Cuphead literally anywhere and have that game feel exactly the same as it does on my TV at home. That obviously doesn't work for every Xbox Play Anywhere game, but it does work on a significant number of games in the Steam Store, which is not something I can say for Chromebooks. This isn't a great example for a school environment, but it makes me happy knowing I can pack a controller with me places and have a good time.
Overall, I am thrilled with this Surface Go. I think Microsoft has come a long way from the Surface RT, and really made something great for people who want something portable and a little less expensive than a standard Surface. This is a fantastic piece of hardware, and there are things about Windows 10 you straight up can't replicate in Chrome OS.
That having been said, I wouldn't recommend this base model to anyone. The model with 8GB of RAM is clearly the model people should buy, but by the time you add a keyboard you're spending close to $700 and that just doesn't fit the market. You can buy two of the Acer Chromebook Tab 10 units for the same price, and schools are going to notice that sort of thing when it comes to buying for a group. There's also less overhead in setting up and maintaining a Chromebook, which is not a small detail for schools.
If you're looking for a small, lightweight Windows machine there's no doubt the Surface Go is the nicest option available today. But if all you want is an all-day portable workhorse on the cheap, you still can't beat a Chromebook.

Prices range from $255 – $275.
Wear OS has been in a slump for over a year now, but thanks to the new TicWatch Pro and talks of big improvements coming later this year, things are starting to look up for Google's wearable platform.
Amidst all of the Android Pie announcements yesterday, Fossil quietly unveiled two new Wear OS smartwatches — the Fossil Q Venture HR and Fossil Q Explorist HR.
Both watches feature traditional metal designs with round displays, and no matter which one you get, there are a number of colors and watch band styles to choose from.
The Fossil Q Venture HR and Fossil Q Explorist HR are up for pre-order right now on Fossil's website with prices ranging from $255 – $275 based on the color/band you pick.
Steam Link lets you play PC games on your phone, and it works surprisingly well!
The Steam Link mobile app is like a dream concept for anyone who's ever thought how neat it would be to play PC games on your phone. In an age of gamer phones and the Nintendo Switch offering outstanding options for gaming on the go, whatever clear distinction there was between "gaming" and "mobile gaming" is disappearing fast.
Valve's contribution with the Steam Link app to let you stream your favorite Steam games from your PC to your mobile phone over a Wi-Fi connection. It's still very much beta software, but it's functional and available in the Play Store so I had to give it a run.
The first thing I'll say is that I'm really surprised how easy it is to set up. To create a connection you need your PC and phone to be on the same network and you'll also need a controller to pair with your phone. The app recommends a Steam controller, but any Bluetooth controller should work (I use the SteelSeries Stratus XL).
Setting up the connection is dead simple, as the app walks you through the steps each time you load it up. You'll need to pair your phone to your PC using a unique code generated on Steam on your PC, and once the connection is made your PC will start displaying the in-home streaming menu interface. My Steam library is fairly sparse, but I was able to load up Rocket League and Gonner which I figured would be good games to test | [

Hidden in plain sight: Indigenous Australian rock art on Sydney's doorstep
There are more than a thousand significant rock art sites less than hour from central Sydney. A new tour shows you where to find them from land and water

A woman on my rock art tour who works in tourism reels off the usual rushed itinerary for overseas visitors to Sydney: "They put them in a bus, drive them to Bondi and Manly, have a day in the Blue Mountains on the Scenic Railway then it's back in the bus and that's Sydney."
It's all a bit wham bam thank you m'am, with scant attention paid to Sydney's rich Indigenous heritage.
Paul Pickering feels the same way. "Where are all the tourists?" he asks as we walk down an empty track in the Ku-ring-gai Chase national park, home to around 1,500 pieces of Aboriginal rock art. It's the largest concentration of Indigenous sites in Australia, eclipsing Kakadu which has around 5,000 sites but over a much greater land mass, says Pickering.
After leaving his job in the finance industry last year, Pickering started Sydney Out Back which runs Indigenous rock art tours in the national park that borders Sydney's northern suburbs and in the adjacent Hawkesbury river. He's passionate about the national park and believes it's underappreciated.
"I've met some people who live in Curl Curl [on the nearby northern beaches] who haven't even been here," he says.

Sydney is spoilt for national parks. Within an hour of the city limits sits the Royal national park to the south and the Blue Mountains to the west, and 45 minutes from the city lies the 14,977 hectare Ku-ring-gai Chase national park.
"What we are seeing today is a time capsule from pre-European times," says Pickering near the park entrance. We walk a few metres to a picturesque clearing that reveals a sandstone rockface, thick bushland and a creek where water is flowing fast down rocks due to overnight rain. It's one of those brilliant, sunny winter days, where the smell of the eucalypt is especially strong and fresh. The city feels very far away.
Until recent times, the area remained relatively unexplored. It wasn't until the 1960s that roads were built into the park, with the road to Cottage Point (where there is a lovely restaurant) not built until 1967.
We are visiting on a Wednesday and come across only five other people – all at local beauty spot West Head lookout, with a great view across to Palm Beach (and the set of Home and Away), Barrenjoey lighthouse and Lion Island. The beach beneath the lookout is also the place of first recorded contact between NSW governor Arthur Phillip and Indigenous Australians.
Our Indigenous guide, Les McLeod, passes around old logs from the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. The logs are fascinating, cataloguing all the known rock art in the region: what the site is, what it depicts and its level of degradation.
The area's significant Indigenous sites include rock engravings, art sites, burial sites, caves or shelters (some with shell deposits), marriage areas, men's areas, women's areas, birthing areas, midden sites, stone arrangement sites and tool manufacturing locations.
But first we have a welcome to country. We are on Guringai land, and McLeod has the elders' permission to hold tours and explain the rock art.
McLeod smears ochre on our faces and hands and we stand in a circle as he claps message sticks.
The first rock art he takes us to is carved into the ground on a flat, treeless ledge in the park. The engravings here are outlines created on | [

Ivory Coast's President Flirts With Third Term Bid
bnlpulse
The sudden death of Alassane Ouattara's chosen successor could see him run for a third term as president of Ivory Coast, countering the push in Africa to limit leaders' stay in office.
Ouattara helped secure the party ticket for Prime Minister Amadou Gon Coulibaly after announcing in March he would step down. That ended uncertainty over his intentions after hinting in 2018 he was considering extending his mandate to ensure economic gains were sustained in the world's biggest cocoa producer.
Now that his protégé has died, Ouattara is facing pressure to reverse that decision.
Ouattara's "mission isn't completed yet," Kobenan Kouassi Adjoumani, a spokesman for the ruling Rally of Houphouetists for Democracy and Peace, said Wednesday in a speech that urged the incumbent to stand for re-election. The party is reconsidering its options, including a third term bid, its executive director Adama Bictogo told reporters last week. "As of today, everything is possible."
A Ouattara bid would buck the respect for term limits that's gained momentum in Africa, and particularly West Africa, over the past decade after a history of leaders extending their rule. On the other hand, the lack of a clear candidate for the ruling party weakens its campaign pledge to provide continuity after years of rapid growth.
Burkina Faso demonstrators blocked a 2014 attempt to change the constitution to allow President Blaise Compaore to extend his mandate. In 2016, the Economic Community of West African States took rare military action to unseat Yahya Jammeh, who'd vowed to lead Gambia for "a billion years."
Ouattara, 78, who hasn't commented since Gon Coulibaly's death, had previously said a new constitution adopted in 2016 wipes his slate clean and allows him to run again.
The RHDP, which has called the situation "a force majeure," is expected to announce its candidate this month.
"There's pressure on the ruling party to make a decision," said William Assanvo, a senior West Africa researcher at the Pretoria-based Institute for Security Studies. "This may make people more understanding."
However, it isn't yet clear whether the constitution allows it, he said.
Ouattara's presidency ushered in a period of stability for Ivory Coast, where elections have historically been fraught. More than 3,000 people died in 2011 when former President Laurent Gbagbo refused to concede defeat.
Since he took office mid-2011, the economy expanded by an average 8.5% a year. Growth is expected to slow in 2020 due to the impact of Covid-19.
French President Emmanuel Macron had welcomed Ouattara's decision in March not to stand for re-election, describing him then as a "man of his word and a statesman." French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian met with Ouattara Monday in Abidjan, but the details of their conversation weren't made public.
"Since the end of the civil war, Ivory Coast has been a darling of the international community and leading democracy in West Africa," according to Judd Devermont, the director of the Africa Program at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies. "What happens in Ivory Coast will reverberate throughout the region."

The 25th Flora London Marathon had two highlights with best times of the year from Paula Radcliffe and Martin Lel. Radcliffe clocked 2:17:42 hours and achieved the third fastest time of all times. The Kenyan Lel won the race in 2:07:26. World record holder Paul Tergat (Kenya) was defeated as well as Olympic Champion Stefano Baldini (Italy) and London's defending champion Evans Rutto (Kenya). 35,680 runners started at the jubilee race in London.
About one million people cheered on Paula Radcliffe, who won with a five minute gap in front of Constantina Dita (Romania/2:22:50). Susan Chepkemei (Kenya) came in third in 2:24:00.
The men's race ended with a surprise. Martin Lel won the 42.195 k in very good weather conditions. Runner up was the World Marathon Champion Jaouad Gharib (Morocco/2:07:49) and third place was taken by the 2004 New York Marathon winner, Hendrick Ramaala (South Africa/2:08:32). Lel gained 55,000 Dollar prize money plus 25,000 Dollar for time bonuses. "It was the toughest race of my career but I was very well prepared. To run against those competitors is a big challenge", explained 26 year old Martin Lel. Olympic Champion Stefano Baldini (Italy) finished fifth in at time of 2:09:25, while world record holder Paul Tergat (Kenya/2:04:55) became eighth clocking 2:11:38. Defending champion Evans Rutto (Kenya), who is coached by Dieter Hogen, merely finished tenth in 2:12:49. Rutto had won all of his three marathon races before.
Right from the beginning Paula Radcliffe left all her competitors behind. After a while, also the pacemakers couldn't keep up with the world record holder who won London two years ago in 2:15:25 hours. The second fastest time of the world also belongs to Paula Radcliffe. "This is a very important victory for me", the 31-year old said. She broke down in the Olympic Marathon race in Athens but came back at the New York Marathon last November. "The book is closed for me. I do not hang in there mentally. But this experience made me even stronger", explained Paula Radcliffe. She had to accept her only defeat out of six marathon races at the Olympics. In Athens she had dropped out.
But once again the nation got a small shock during Radcliffe's race. Great Britain's most popular athlete for the past years suddenly stopped running and stood at the roadside. But it wasn't as dramatic as in Athens. For everybody's relief, she started running again after ten seconds. Later she apologized for shocking the fans on TV and on the roadside. "I am sorry that I have shocked the Nation but I had to rest for a moment. I had a stomach problem and after the short break it was better. Beside this, I felt really good", said Paula Radcliffe.

Climate Change Is Causing Supply Chain Disruptions: How Businesses Can Prepare
The U.S. and the rest of the world will witness record-breaking weather this year. Domestically, this will be the hottest summer on record, and forecasters have also predicted extreme weather for regions like India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, among others.

These extreme temperatures, coupled with droughts, will create a flurry of sudden floods, wildfires, and hurricanes that can significantly disrupt an already fragile supply chain. Just this year, New Mexico had its largest wildfire in the state's history. Disruptions like these will cause a rise in essential goods and materials costs, straining industries across the board.
As a result of climate change causing extreme weather events, we will also see an increase in blackouts and power grid failures. U.S. infrastructure can withstand small changes in temperature according to their region. However, with extreme events, as we saw in Texas in the winter of 2021 and the Pacific Northwest in the summer of 2021, our power grids are not resilient enough to face the unanticipated impact of climate change.
Power outages have ripple effects that impact operations like an inability to maintain factory schedules and on-time deliveries, and even employees unable to make it to work. For example, when Hurricane Ida hit New Orleans, a major hotel chain was prepared for the direct impact on operations in Louisiana. However, the hotel management was not ready for the operational consequences that occurred from a flooding in New York City caused by the hurricane. These operational consequences have a significant impact on an already fragile hotel industry.
A new study by the Deloitte Center for Sustainable Progress predicts that the current path of climate change will cost the world $178 trillion in net present value during the 2021 to 2070 period. The study is a clear indicator that climate change directly affects economic growth. While the results show consequences in the long term, businesses will begin to feel the effects of this crisis in their international supply chains immediately.
The cost of producing, transporting, and delivering essential goods through international waters will increase as it becomes harder for countries to meet the U.S. demands. In addition, challenging weather conditions will impact delivery times, transportation routes, and onsite productions. After the pandemic, people's demands for the "Amazon" experience in the U.S. increased, putting even more pressure on delivery turnarounds. Companies must know when to react and activate backup plans for their supply chains to meet customer demands.
One of CEOs' biggest mistakes is focusing only on operational damages and not the physical threats to critical core assets that keep operations running like roads, ports, employees, fleets, and power grids. Instead, CEOs need to expand their understanding of risk to factor in the location, type and timing of a threat. Knowing how all these factors play into the supply chain and how they are interrupted by extreme weather will shorten a company's response time.
Big data and artificial intelligence (AI) technology cannot predict extreme weather, but it can provide a clear picture of critical events that are big and small, such as road closures, flooding, chemical spills, or fires, all of which have the potential to threaten a company's supply chain and logistics. AI can help a business identify unfolding severe weather disasters and how they impact routes or create landslides, and correlate them with the location of suppliers, warehouses, fleets, and ships, enabling teams to know when to activate backup plans or look for alternate sources or routes to ensure critical resources arrive on time. Long-term, AI helps determine if businesses should permanently change suppliers based on location and how often extreme weather events occur near them.
CEOs can practice preventative table-top exercises to make sure their company is ready to mitigate the consequences of a threat, like a power outage, wildfire, or emergent severe weather. The best way to think about this is to start at the end of the supply chain and work your way back, including key people, locations, and assets involved in every step of the process. Include key team members from every company department to thoroughly think through all contingencies around severe weather and potential power grid failures and how these might impact operations.
For example, suppose the event disrupts production schedules in one location. In that case | [

CEOs must assess the ripple effects of climate change on the supply chain. Too many companies have contingency plans in place but lack the right insight to know when to activate them, and by then it can be too late and they are forced to operate from a rear mirror view. Risk intelligence solutions can help supply chain teams prepare for the disruptions of climate change and manage weather incidents in real-time to meet customer demand, reduce losses, and speed up recovery.

Teaching and learning where literacy and technology meet.

Creative Schools: A Review
We are officially knee-deep into summer. July tends to mark the transition out of the slothful period of recovery from the previous school year into the inspired period of optimistically planning the next school year. It is during this phase that I sunk into reading Ken Robinson's latest book, Creative Schools.
Many educators know Robinson from his popular 2006 TED talk, "Do Schools Kill Creativity?" which has been viewed more than 33 million times. Some of us have even had the good fortune to attend one of his keynotes at an educational conference (I saw him a few years back at NCTE and still chuckle over some of his witty one-liners). Yet, somehow overlooked is his longstanding record as an educational researcher, writer, and reformer. He has been "in education," as it were, for 40 years; he holds a PhD in Education, was a professor of Education at the University of Warwick, UK, and has written countless articles and books on cultivating creativity in schools. Heck, in 2003, he was even knighted by the Queen of England for his service to the arts. Suffice it to say, Sir Ken is an authority on transforming education.
In Creative Schools, he addresses the paradox of teaching and learning in a standards-obsessed system that touts a desire to mold unique and creative students. Through a series of case studies of educators and institutions that are transforming the way that they "do school," Robinson makes the case for bold and courageous change. "The challenge," he writes, "is not to fix the system but to change it; not to reform it but to transform it. The great irony in the current malaise in education is that we actually know what works. We just don't do it on a wide enough scale. We are in a position as never before to use our creative and technological resources to change that."
Robinson's opening chapters acknowledge that now is a time of great tension within the education community: tension between teachers who would sooner do anything except "teach to the test" and Washington bureaucrats who are embarrassed by the consistently low rankings American students score on international exams; between traditional teachers who question the rush toward technology in the classroom and their colleagues who think that understanding how to employ technology with purpose is a prerequisite for meaningful participation in contemporary society; between the antiquated arrangement of our public schools as the last remnant of an industrial factory model (complete with division of labor and factory-reminiscent bells) and a workforce that demands imagination and ingenuity.
These tensions have had a deleterious effect on the status of education today. Robinson contends: "Most industrial processes generate huge amounts of waste and low-value by-products. So does education. As we've seen, they include dropping out, disengagement, low self-esteem, and limited employment opportunities for those who don't succeed, or whose talents are not valued in the system." The solution to these problems (or perhaps more accurately, the solutions) is the focus of the remaining chapters of the book.
At the heart of Creative Schools is a call to action, hollered from the rooftops of schools that are doing something very right. He highlights the innovations of alternative learning environments like the North Star center and Minddrive, as well as the good work of leaders who transform learning within an existing system, like Dr. Laurie Barron of Smokey Road Middle School and Richard Gerver of Grange Primary School. He deconstructs what works at places like High Tech High School, a charter school in San Diego, where one of the first things to go were the bells. And he leaves readers with a lingering sense of purpose, established from even the first pages of the book: "Revolutions," Robinson argues, "don't wait for legislation. They emerge from what people do at the ground level. Education doesn't happen in the committee rooms of the legislatures or in the rhetoric of politicians. It's what goes on between learners and teachers in actual schools. If you're a teacher, for your students you are the system. If you're a school principal, for your community you are the system. If you're a policymaker, for the schools you control you are the system."
As far as I'm concerned, that strikes me | [

Are We Ready for a New Agricultural Bank in Cameroon? What Challenges and Opportunities?
Home/General, Policy/Are We Ready for a New Agricultural Bank in Cameroon? What Challenges and Opportunities?
By Obed Fung, Director
From a Promising Sector to an Agricultural bank
Of the close to 20 million inhabitants of Cameroon, about 8.5 million (42 percent of the total population) live in rural areas where informal agriculture is the predominant source of employment. Despite its subsistence nature, this sector employs more than 55 percent of the total workforce, while providing 22 percent of its GDP by sector and 30 percent of its export revenue on average. In the past couple of years, the agricultural sector has exhibited an average 5 percent growth rate and this is encouraging especially when compared to the 2.5 percent overall annual growth rate in the last few years. These trends are largely attributed to some improvements in policy as well as subtle changes in Cameroonians approach towards agriculture over the past few decades. This changing approach in addition to continuous innovation in sector strategies has the potential of accelerating its transition to second-generation agriculture. But for this to happen, health, education and infrastructure remain essential externalities. For example, we understand that a healthy population or an informed or educated one is more productive. Infrastructure for agricultural purposes entails anything from an improved network of roads, farming equipment, processing industries, marketing facilities to financial institutions that can leverage funds for these purposes. This is the reason why the creation of an agricultural bank as announced by the Head of State back in January 2011 is soon to materialize with the expected approval of the Banking Commission of Central Africa (COBAC). Close to two decades after the failure of Credit Agricole du Cameroon (CAC), the economy is on its way to a new financial institution for the agricultural sector. A lot has already been said and done towards the opening of the Cameroon Agriculture Financial Rural Corporation (CAFRUC) whose mission is to contribute to the financing of agricultural projects and whose creation is already at a very advanced state.
Does the Agricultural Potential Warrant the Creation of a Bank?
Given the natural and acquired potentials of this economy, the answer is "Yes." Such an institution in Cameroon could reduce the rate of importation and improve the rate of exportation through a revival of domestic production thereby improving on the trade balance. Cameroon averagely imports 135 000 tons of rice which costs 138 billion CFAF per year (National statistics 2013). This represents the cost price of rice importation alone, not considering the other agricultural produce like millet and corn which are equally imported in large quantities every year to supplement domestic consumption. The budget of Cameroon stood at 2 800 billion CFAF in 2012 and 3 236 billion CFAF this year. When we consider imports on rice for these two years, we are faced with a colossal 276 billion CFAF. This amount is capable of stimulating economic activities in the country especially through job creation in the rice sector for example or better still can create approximately 28 agricultural banks in Cameroon if we go by the minimum requirement of 10 billion CFAF required by COBAC for the creation of a bank. These could seriously revive domestic production.
Cameroon is the agricultural engine of its 6 member state CEMAC region whose population is currently about 37 million inhabitants all of which depend to a large measure on Cameroon for food. Then we have the neighbouring Nigeria with a population of about 150 million inhabitants. Therefore the available market for its agricultural products is quite extensive and the possibilities of satisfying the effective demand (which is demand backed by purchasing power) is enormous. Passing on to second generation agriculture through investment in infrastructure by an agricultural bank will go a long way to better equip Cameroon to meet ever-increasing sub-regional and international demand. This international trade potential has already been facilitated by its strategic position and sea access.
Of the 47 544 000 hectares that make up the national territory, 9 000 000 hectares (which is 100 times larger than the whole of the Maldives – the 10th smallest country in the world) can be used for agricultural purposes. | [

The Maldives has recorded remarkable economic growth over the past two decades, especially compared with the rest of the South Asian countries and is on the threshold of graduating from a Less Developed Country (LDC) status to the middle income group. It is therefore logical to think that Cameroon has the potential of doing better 100 times over in its agricultural sector alone than this archipelago of 1,190 islands nation in the Indian Ocean. If adequate funds are put into technology, research and development and appropriately applied over its extensive agricultural land surface through an agricultural bank, it will bring Cameroon to the rank of "highest producers" of some of its agricultural products in the world.
Cameroon has so many important cash crops the most important of which are cocoa, coffee, cotton, bananas, rubber, palm oil and kernels, and peanuts. The main food crops are plantains, cassava, corn, millet, and sugarcane. Palm oil production has shown signs of strength, but the product is not marketed internationally. Cameroon bananas are sold internationally, and the sector was reorganized and privatized in 1987. Similarly, rubber output has grown in spite of Asian competition. Cameroon is among the world's largest cocoa producers; according to statistics from the National Cocoa and Coffee Board (NCCB), cocoa production in Cameroon for 2011-12 stood at 208,000 tons. Cameroon is ranked 17th in the world in coffee production. Two types of coffee, robusta and arabica, are grown; production was 70,000 tons in 2011 up from 66 584 ton in 2010. About 85,000 hectares of agricultural land surface are allocated to cotton plantations. Some cotton is exported, while the remainder is processed by local textile plants. Total cotton output growth rate reached 41.54% in 2012 (www.indexmundi.com/agriculture). Bananas are grown mainly in the southwest; Cameroon exported 247,210 tons of bananas in 2011 mainly to Europe and government now targets a production of 500,000 tons annually by 2013 (Cameroon Tribune January 12,2012). The output of rubber, which is also grown in the southwest creates nearly 30,000 jobs and export earnings of about 20 billion CFAF per year. This industry provides 2 percent of Cameroon's export revenue (www.businessincameroon.com). Estimated production in 2013 of palm kernel oil and oil seed is 32,000 and 113,000 tons, respectively (www.indexmundi.com/agriculture). For peanuts (in the shell) the figure was 30,000 tons. Small amounts of tobacco, tea, and pineapples are also grown.
Estimated 2013 production of food crops like sugarcane is 130,000 tons. Other food crops like cassava, (with an industrial processing unit underway in Sangmelima); sorghum, corn, millet, yams, sweet potatoes, potatoes, dry beans, and rice exist. From the above overabundance, Cameroon output can still be improved on so that it is capable of satisfying both domestic and foreign needs if a proper framework of agriculture is laid down.
Role of the Cameroon Diaspora
The Cameroon Diaspora is a formidable factor for the realisation of an Agricultural bank and for economic development in general. Government has created a platform for the Diaspora through the Ministry of External Relations. This is a good inspiration drawn from the case of China 80 percent of whose economic development in 2008 came from the Diaspora. It happened in China, it happened in the BRIC countries and it can happen in Cameroon. The government standing out as the sole proprietor of the agricultural bank may not be the best option. The fact remains that funds transferred from abroad involve so many charges and are more often than not channelled into social rather than development programmes and that access to loans by the Diaspora community may be restricted if the intention is to fund development projects | [

out of the country of residence because banks may not have the means to follow up distant projects. Even with this difficulty, improvement in the foreign reserves of Cameroon has greatly been influenced by funds from residents abroad. In its conference held in Cameroon in August 2013 on "Accelerating Transition to Second Generation Agriculture: Role of the Diaspora" held in Yaounde, one of the resolutions of this conference was the raising of funds towards the creation of an Agricultural bank of Cameroon. With the greater public having a say in the funds of this bank rather than government being 100 percent equity holder, appointment of personnel will pass from political affiliations to a more competitive framework and this will have poor management in check. It is needless to emphasize on the fact that more funds will be leveraged by a wider community thereby giving room for more bank liquidity and more access to loans.
But All that Glitters is not Gold
This is true when we are aware of the fact that creating an agricultural bank for Cameroon is not an end in itself. It could well be a starting point towards second generation agriculture. Let us not be carried away by the beckoning opportunities and fail to look at the challenges that may seem so unapparent. The first step towards another agricultural bank should be a retrospective look at the causes of the failure of the defunct Crédit Agricole du Cameroun (CDC) a similar financial institution that existed nearly two decades ago. This was the same fate of the Cameroon Development Bank (CDB), the National Fund for Rural Development (FONADER) or the Guarantee Fund for Small Businesses (FOGAPE) whose mission was to see to the financing of the agro-pastoral activities. It is true that the imposition of austerity measures by the Bretton Woods institutions (World BanK and IMF) were partially responsible for their failures but mismanagement, corruption, embezzlement and misappropriation of funds were the greater reason behind it all. If Cameroonians are ever going to do anything worth something with the new agricultural bank, then these social ills have to be up rooted. Well, there is a consolation next door when we think of the existence of the embezzlement watchdog of Cameroon (CONAC) that has been in full activity in recent years.
The second challenge concerns loans. Creating a bank does not only entail putting funds in place but making them available when demanded. This new bank should not be another means of stashing away funds and making sure they are intact in the bank volts. The most important problem the Cameroonian entrepreneur faces with the banking sector is access to funds. Banks do not lend money, or even when they do, conditions for collateral knock out the average business man. At times it is almost 150 percent the amount to be loaned. This challenge is likely to affect this new bank. A few rich farmers or corporatives could be capable of providing collateral for their loans but what about a subsistent farmer in the village of Zongefu in Wum who can only afford for a few hectares of farmland? What about a small institution like the Zongefu Corporative which involves an entire rural community for example? It is worth mentioning that for now this class of farmers produce majority of the agricultural output in the economy and so the new bank will need to cooperate with the Credit Unions if the grassroot farmer needs to be reached. This bank should provide a platform that can effectively encourage agricultural entrepreneurs regardless of the size of their projects otherwise the process of giving out loans will become biased.

The Source of the Trouble

For critics of the Iraq war, the downfall of Ahmad Chalabi occasioned a hearty, unapologetic outpouring of Schadenfreude—a loud cheer for a well-deserved knee to the administration's gut. In fact, it was possible to detect a bit of this spirit on the front page of the New York Times. On May 21, the editors arrayed contrasting images of the banker turned freedom fighter turned putative Iranian spy. Here he is smirking behind Laura Bush in the House of Representatives gallery as the president delivers his State of the Union address. There he is looking bleary and sweaty, after Iraqi police stormed his home and office in the middle of the night. An analysis by David Sanger went so far as to name names of individuals who had associated themselves with the discredited leader of the Iraqi National Congress. The list, he wrote, included "many of the men who came to dominate the top ranks of the Bush administration … Donald H. Rumsfeld, Paul D. Wolfowitz, Douglas J. Feith, Richard L. Armitage, Elliott Abrams and Zalmay M. Khalilzad, among others."
The phrase "among others" is a highly evocative one. Because that list of credulous Chalabi allies could include the New York Times' own reporter, Judith Miller. During the winter of 2001 and throughout 2002, Miller produced a series of stunning stories about Saddam Hussein's ambition and capacity to produce weapons of mass destruction, based largely on information provided by Chalabi and his allies—almost all of which have turned out to be stunningly inaccurate.
For the past year, the Times has done much to correct that coverage, publishing a series of stories calling Chalabi's credibility into question. But never once in the course of its coverage—or in any public comments from its editors—did the Times acknowledge Chalabi's central role in some of its biggest scoops, scoops that not only garnered attention but that the administration specifically cited to buttress its case for war.
The longer the Times remained silent on Chalabi's importance to Judith Miller's reporting, the louder critics howled. In February, in the New York Review of Books, Michael Massing held up Miller as evidence of the press's "submissiveness" in covering the war. For more than a year, Slate's Jack Shafer has demanded the paper come clean.
But finally, with Chalabi's fall from grace so complete—the Pentagon has cut off his funding, troops smashed his portrait in raids of the INC office—the Times' refusal to concede its own complicity became untenable. Last week, on page A10, the paper published a note on its coverage, drafted by executive editor Bill Keller himself. The paper singled out pieces that relied on "information from a circle of Iraqi informants, defectors, and exiles bent on 'regime change.' " The note named Ahmad Chalabi as a central player in this group.
This time, however, the omission of Judith Miller's name was conspicuous. "Some critics of our coverage during that time have focused blame on individual reporters. Our examination, however, indicates that the problem was more complicated."
"It was precisely her unpleasant aggressiveness that helped force the story—the marriage of WMD and global jihadists—closer to the top of the agenda."
The editor's note was correct: The Judy Miller problem is complicated. That is, the very qualities that endeared Miller to her editors at the New York Times—her ambition, her aggressiveness, her cultivation of sources by any means necessary, her hunger to be first—were the same ones that allowed her to get the WMD story so wrong.
Miller is a star, a diva. She wrote big stories, won big prizes. Long before her WMD articles ran, Miller had become a newsroom legend—and for reasons that had little to do with the stories that appeared beneath her byline. With her seemingly bottomless ambition—a pair of big feet that would stomp on colleagues in her | [

way and even crunch a few bystanders—she cut a larger-than-life figure that lent itself to Paul Bunyan–esque retellings. Most of these stories aren't kind. Of course, nobody said journalism was a country club. And her personality was immaterial while she was succeeding, winning a Pulitzer, warning the world about terrorism, bio-weapons, and Iraq's war machine. But now, who she is, and why she prospered, makes for a revealing cautionary tale about the culture of American journalism.
On a summer afternoon in the early eighties, Judy Miller invited her exercise-averse boyfriend Richard Burt, then the Times' defense reporter, to watch her swim laps in the Washington Hilton pool. Afterward, lounging in the sun, Miller veered into one of her favorite lines of conversation: Does chemical or nuclear warfare inflict the most damage? Burt, who would go on to become an assistant secretary of State in the Reagan administration, has a serious cast of mind. But even he was taken aback by Miller's dark thoughts. "I remember being struck that there are not many people sitting around on a beautiful day thinking about weapons of mass destruction," he says.
Miller's dramatic way of looking at the world may have something to do with her family's show-business background. During the forties and fifties, her father, Bill Miller, ran the Riviera nightclub in Fort Lee, New Jersey. Famed for its retractable roof, the Riviera staged shows by Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Tito Puente. When the state highway commission ordered the Riviera condemned in 1953, Miller made his way to Vegas, proving his impresario bona fides by reviving the careers of Elvis Presley and Marlene Dietrich.
Judy Miller arrived in the Times' Washington bureau in 1977, as part of a new breed of hungry young hires, prodded in part by the sting of losing the Watergate story to Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post. "She was unlike the other guys there. That's why they brought her to the paper," says Steven Rattner, another old boyfriend, who eventually left his Times gig to become an investment banker.
Installed amid colleagues—they were almost all men—who'd spent decades working their way up the paper's food chain, Miller stood out immediately for her sharp elbows. While the culture of the paper assiduously practices omertà—what happens in the newsroom stays in the newsroom—Miller is cause for reporters to break the code of silence. An unusual number of her co-workers have gone out of their way to separate themselves and their paper from Miller. Few are brave enough to attach their names to the stories, but they all sound a similar refrain. "She's a shit to the people she works with," says one. "When I see her coming, my instinct is to go the other way," says another. They recite her foibles and peccadilloes, from getting temporarily banned by the Times' D.C. car service for her rudeness to throwing a fit over rearranged items on her desk. Defenders are few and far between. And even the staunchest ones often concede her faults. Bill Keller told me in an e-mail, "She has sharp elbows. She is possessive of her sources, and passionate about her stories, and a little obsessive. If you interview people who have worked with Sy Hersh, I'll bet you'll find some of the same complaints."
Miller's brief when she arrived at the paper was primarily to cover the Securities and Exchange Commission. But that wasn't her true interest. At Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School, studying for a master's in public affairs, she traveled to Jerusalem in 1971 to research a paper. "I became fascinated with the Israeli and the Palestinian dispute, and spent the rest of the summer traveling for the first time to Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon," Miller told me in an e-mail. (Miller responded by e-mail to some questions and ignored others.) "By the end of the summer, I was hooked." As a correspondent for The Progressive and National Public Radio, she turned her academic interest into a professional one, traveling to the region and cultivating a network of highly placed sources.

recalls a party in the mid-seventies at which Jordan's King Hussein caught a glimpse of Miller across the room and howled, "Juuuuddddy!"
"Kiiiinnnggg," she responded.
In 1983, the Times put her Middle East experience to use by installing her as its Cairo bureau chief, allowing her to range from Tripoli to Damascus. Paradoxically, powerful Middle Eastern men, with their fervent sexism, actually represented an opportunity for female reporters. Viewing the women with utter condescension, these monarchs and dictators had no fear of granting them extraordinary access. They would pontificate without worries of repercussions. Miller had ready access to many Mideast potentates. As she shuttled between meetings with Hussein, Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak, and Palestinian Liberation Organization chief Yasser Arafat in 1984, her colleagues joked about the "Miller Plan" for peace.
Miller also racked up the sort of adventure tales that correspondents love to dispense after a dram or two of whiskey. She witnessed a hanging in Sudan, flew across Afghanistan in a rickety Northern Alliance helicopter held together in places by duct tape. "Judy is a smart, relentless, incredibly well-sourced, and fearless reporter," says Keller. "It's a little galling to watch her pursued by some of these armchair media ethicists who have never ventured into a war zone or earned the right to carry Judy's laptop."
From her first day at the Times, Miller's life and work have been hard to separate, which for a reporter is both a strength and a weakness. "She's a passionate person—she gets caught up in her sources passionately," one of her Times colleagues told me. Friends from her earliest days in Washington noted that she didn't surround herself with people her own age. She sought out the best and brightest at the city's highest levels, dating Larry Sterne, the Washington Post's foreign editor, and hanging out with the defense gurus Richard Perle and Walter Slocum. "These people were powerful. But they were also interesting, and Judy liked talking to them. She is curious and enthusiastic," says one friend from this period.
And she got caught up in her coverage of the Middle East. It was a passion she acknowledged in the introduction to her 1996 book on Islam, God Has Ninety-Nine Names: "While I have tried to keep an open mind about traditions and cultures that differ from my own, I make no apology for the fact that as a Western woman and an American, I believe firmly in the inherent dignity of the individual and the value of human rights and legal equality for all. In this commitment, I, too, am unapologetically militant."
King Hussein caught a glimpse of Miller across the room and howled, "Juuuuddddy.""Kiiiinnnggg," she responded.
By the late nineties, she was focused largely on the nexus between terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. Her dispatches from the region frequently contained nightmare scenarios. One piece, co-written with William Broad, warned that "a pilotless plane spraying 200 pounds of anthrax near a large city might kill up to a million people—if the winds were right, if no rain fell, if the nozzles did not get clogged, if the particles were the right size, if the population had no vaccinations, and so on." It might have seemed like a risk too far-fetched to mention, but she felt compelled to mention it. The country at the time seemed to be enjoying the equivalent of that sunny day at the Hilton. The economy was booming, and the biggest problem seemed to be managing prosperity—and a president's personal failings. "Remember, everyone was obsessed with the White House sex story," says New Yorker writer Jeffrey Goldberg, who was invited by the paper to join Miller in an investigation unit to examine Al Qaeda. Goldberg found her an impossibly difficult colleague. But he also realized her value. "She happened to be prescient about the rise of the global jihad. And it was her unpleasant hyper-aggressiveness that enabled her to help force a very important story—the possibility of a marriage between WMD prolifer | [

ators and global jihadists—closer to the top of the agenda."
Before September 11, Miller, with her anxieties about anthrax attacks, could seem like Chicken Little; afterward, she seemed more liked Cassandra, the only one who'd been right. And this fact gave her tremendous power at the paper. Eight months before the attacks, she published a piece documenting Al Qaeda's WMD ambitions—part of a series that later earned her (along with several colleagues) a Pulitzer. Germs, a book about bioterrorism co-written with two Times colleagues, appeared less than a month after the attacks and soon hit the best-seller list. She began making regular appearances on CNN and PBS, becoming a public face of the paper—a celebrity that grimly solidified when she received a hoax letter at her desk containing a white, powdery substance resembling anthrax.
What's more, she had spent several decades acquiring access to Washington's Middle East experts, some of whom suddenly wielded tremendous influence in the Bush administration. Miller's many doubters at the Times were effectively silenced. She had emerged as one of the paper's biggest stars, with the kind of "competitive metabolism" that new editor Howell Raines—he'd taken over from Joseph Lelyveld the week before 9/11—made into a crusade. According to a friend of Raines's, as well as one of Miller's colleagues at the paper, the editor pulled her aside after the attacks. "Go win a Pulitzer," he told her.
For the next two years, she supplied the paper with a string of grim exclusives. There was the defector who described Saddam Hussein's recent renovation of storage facilities for nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. There was her report that a Russian virologist might have handed the regime a particularly virulent strain of smallpox. To protect themselves against VX and sarin, she further reported, the Iraqis had greatly increased the importation of an antidote to these agents. And, most memorably, she co-wrote a piece in which administration officials suggested that Iraq had attempted to import aluminum tubes for nuclear weapons. Vice-President Dick Cheney trumpeted the story on Meet the Press, closing the circle. Of course, each of the stories contained important caveats. But together they painted a horrifying picture. There was just one problem with them: The vast majority of these blockbusters turned out to be wrong.
Long before Miller's current difficulties, she was known at the paper for a different sin: rudeness, amplified by a legendary temper. Seth Faison, a foreign correspondent who has punched his ticket with the Times in China, tells the following story: In 1993, Miller had been billeted over to the Metro desk from her day job as a staff writer at the Times Magazine to help report on the World Trade Center bombing. Faison, a young Metro reporter, had left the office for jury duty. During his absence, Miller ensconced herself at his desk. "I had been at the Times for less than two years, and I'm not a very assertive person. And so I just said, 'Judy, could I sit here?' She said, 'You have to go someplace else.' "
When Faison went to his editors, they did nothing to help him. "They held up their hands palm up, like, 'I'm not going to touch this one.' They didn't want the wrath of Judy Miller." And so for a week, without ever acknowledging Faison's refugee status, Miller occupied his territory.
The epicenter of Miller-bashing is the Washington bureau. The phenomenon has a long history. During her tumultuous time as deputy bureau chief in the late eighties, she proposed reassigning many reporters out, to other bureaus and lesser posts. Adam Clymer, who served as the paper's political editor, recalls, "She ran the bureau day to day, and that regime was probably the unhappiest in my experience."
According to Clymer, she would call reporters and editors in the middle of the night to complain about stories. She found an unusual way to pass on others' complaints as well. To listen to a daily feed from the afternoon story meeting in New York, she moved a squawk box onto her desk in the newsroom, | [

where everyone else in the bureau could hear the feed, too. They could eavesdrop on top editors ripping into colleagues' stories with vicious remarks obviously not intended for wide distribution.
At a paper that prides itself on at least a veneer of collegiality, Miller's reporting tactics often left jaws agape. According to two Times veterans, reporters at the Pentagon and on other beats have frequently found themselves calling their sources, only to be told, "I've already talked to Judy Miller."
They charge her with forcing her bylines onto stories, staunchly arguing for the addition of her name after adding mere dribs and drabs of information. "She's not afraid to get her byline by bigfooting. In fact, that's how she gets many of them," charges one of her colleagues.
But when there is trouble, it appears she's more than happy to pass around the responsibility. One incident that still rankles happened last April, when Miller co-bylined a story with Douglas Jehl on the WMD search that included a quote from Amy Smithson, an analyst formerly at the Henry L. Stimson Center. A day after it appeared, the Times learned that the quote was deeply problematic. To begin with, it had been supplied to Miller in an e-mail that began, "Briefly and on background"—a condition that Miller had flatly broken by naming her source. Miller committed a further offense by paraphrasing the quote and distorting Smithson's analysis. One person who viewed the e-mail says that it attributed views to Smithson that she clearly didn't hold. An embarrassing correction ensued. And while the offense had been entirely Miller's, there was nothing in the correction indicating Jehl's innocence.
The bad feelings from these incidents have festered over time, and as problems have come to light with Miller's reporting, her critics at the paper have eagerly piled on. Over the course of the past six months, Washington reporters have complained vociferously about Miller. They have been especially angry that Miller appears on Larry King Live and Paula Zahn Now to discuss Iraqi WMD. "There's anger and embarrassment among the staff that Judy is still the voice of the Times on the subject," says one reporter. In addition, some of these reporters have frankly told their editors that they will never share a byline with her. All this pressure has succeeded in forcing official reforms. The paper's current policy is that any time Miller visits Washington, her editor Matthew Purdy must provide bureau chief Philip Taubman and his deputies with advance notice and explain her purpose for visiting. In January, the bureau officially deprived Miller of her desk. Although this was ostensibly done to make space, according to denizens of the bureau it had an intentional symbolic value, too. "It gave the bureau a way to move her out without saying it was moving her out," says a reporter.
But she's less an anomaly in the newsroom than a caricature of it. She's the toughest of infighters. But "blaming her for that," Richard Burt told me, "would be like blaming a fish for swimming; it was necessary for survival in that place."

close relationship with the INC leader: "I co-wrote the toughest profile of him that our paper published."
If Miller is an extreme example of the Times' ultracompetitive mind-set, she is also an example of an inherent problem of journalism: its reliance on sources. As a Middle East hand, and Saddam Hussein's biographer, Miller spent the nineties paying careful attention to Iraq. But the country posed a major journalistic challenge: Saddam hardly ever granted visas to Western journalists. When he did, the secret police and Ministry of Information carefully restricted their movements, ensuring that they didn't return home with telling stories. And the CIA hadn't done any better infiltrating the Baathists. "For the CIA and every other Western intelligence service, Iraq was a black hole, a denied area, almost impossible to get good intelligence out of," says former agency operative Bob Baer.
There was really only one source that claimed to have secret contacts within the country: the Iraqi National Congress. The INC had begun as an umbrella organization, cobbled together by the CIA to corral a disparate band of anti-Saddam forces into an effective opposition. At the start, Chalabi had been a functionary in this group, arranging logistics for Iraqi politicians visiting officials in Washington. But with his charming persona, he quickly became the group's public face—an ascent that alienated many of the groups he claimed to represent. He had always known how to handle the Western press. As a banker in Amman, he had been a source of gossip about intrigue in King Hussein's palace. Reporters—including Judy Miller—turned to him for dirt.
During the late nineties, Chalabi became one of the most contentious figures in Washington, inspiring as much partisan adoration as hatred. For a journalist covering Iraq, however, Chalabi represented an enormous temptation. Sure, there were doubts. But these could always be chalked up to the CIA's bureaucratic impulse to blame Chalabi for botching a 1996 coup, even though it hardly evinced competence itself. Besides, his defectors had so much splashy information. Plenty of journalists—including the Times' James Risen, Lowell Bergman, and Chris Hedges—couldn't resist working with INC-associated defectors. But none of them went so far as Miller in cultivating Chalabi.
There's an important difference in reportorial style between Miller and her colleagues. Risen and Bergman are diggers, excavating documents and sources hidden deep in the bureaucracy. Miller, on the other hand, relies on her well-placed, carefully tended-to connections to nab her stories. In February, on the public-radio show "The Connection," she said, "My job was not to collect information and analyze it independently as an intelligence agency; my job was to tell readers of the New York Times, as best as I could figure out, what people inside the governments, who had very high security clearances, who were not supposed to talk to me, were saying to one another about what they thought Iraq had and did not have in the area of weapons of mass destruction."
Her Iraq coverage didn't just depend on Chalabi. It also relied heavily on his patrons in the Pentagon. Some of these sources, like Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz, would occasionally talk to her on the record. She relied especially heavily on the Office of Special Plans, an intelligence unit established beneath Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith. The office was charged with uncovering evidence of Al Qaeda links to Saddam Hussein that the CIA might have missed. In particular, Miller is said to have depended on a controversial neocon in Feith's office named Michael Maloof. At one point, in December 2001, Maloof's security clearance was revoked. In April, Risen reported in the Times, "Several intelligence professionals say he came under scrutiny because of suspicions that he had leaked classified information in the past to the news media, a charge that Mr. Maloof denies." While Miller might not have intended to march in lockstep with these hawks, she was caught up in an almost irresistible cycle. Because she kept printing the neocon party line, the neocons kept coming to her with huge stories and great quotes, constantly expanding her access.

ited so much hostility to other reporters, she would be fawning and generous to her sources. "Judy treats her sources well, with a sense of loyalty. She's an attentive and courteous person to them," one Times reporter says. Her strength was that she viewed the relationships as more than transactional. Her sources were her friends.
According to some of her critics, they have occasionally been more than friends. In the early eighties, she shared a Georgetown house with her boyfriend, Wisconsin congressman Les Aspin—a rising star in the Democratic Party, who went on to become Bill Clinton's first secretary of Defense. Aspin, many noted, had appeared a dozen times in Miller's pieces, offering sage words about national security. Certain catty colleagues liked to read these stories aloud. Each time the phrase "Aspin said" appeared, a reporter would add, "rolling over in bed." When Reagan nominated Richard Burt to be assistant secretary of State for European affairs, Jesse Helms and other right-wingers bludgeoned him for their relationship. "It would help [your chances for confirmation]," Orrin Hatch delicately wrote to Burt, "if you could lay to rest the rumors about Judith Miller's articles on arms control appearing so soon after your own meetings with her… ."
The gossip about Miller's romantic life was circulated most widely by a columnist writing in Spy magazine under the pseudonym J. J. Hunsecker. He chronicled her exploits, referring to her as "frisky deputy bureau chief Judith 'Is that a banana in your pocket …?' Miller." As a commentator on the mores of the Times, Hunsecker lacked a certain subtlety. "Miller has been enriching the lives of high-level sources around Washington with her own very special brand of journalistic involvement," the columnist sneered in 1988. But gradually, the allegations moved from innuendo to out-and-out rumormongering. The column reported, outlandishly, that President George H. W. Bush called his resident political genius, Lee Atwater, into his office "and informed him that it might be better if he ended his very special relationship with Miller." Hunsecker was hardly credible. He could produce some howlers, and nothing he wrote could necessarily be believed. But the point wasn't his information, but the way he obtained it. Colleagues within the Times had come to despise Miller so greatly that they apparently picked up the phone, called Spy, and dished their hearts out.
The war in Iraq was going to be Miller's journalistic victory lap. Just before the bombs began falling on Baghdad, Miller embedded with Mobile Exploitation Team (MET) Alpha—the unit charged with scouring Iraq for weapons of mass destruction. No other journalist would have such access, which meant she would have the exclusive when they uncovered the WMD stockpiles, the smoking gun. As one reporter who covered the war told me, "This was going to be the show." Back in Kuwait, the Coalition had arranged for helicopter pools that would swoop reporters into WMD sites as MET Alpha uncovered them.
The Pentagon had seemingly rewarded Miller's prewar reporting with this sweet arrangement. But it also extracted a high price for her presence. Under most embedding agreements, journalists were provided access in exchange for adhering to a few rigid but simple rules: No reporting on forthcoming military tactics, no revealing of sensitive information about troop positions. For the most part, these rules were enforced by common sense. Reporters censored themselves. Transgressions, they understood, would lead the military to cancel their access and throw them out of Iraq. So, by agreeing to preapproval of her pieces, Miller signed up for something far more restrictive.
Last month, I traded e-mail with Eugene Pomeroy, a former National Guard soldier who is now working in Baghdad as a contractor for a security firm. During the war, Pomeroy served as the public-affairs officer for MET Alpha. This meant that he had one primary duty: to shepherd Judy Miller around Iraq. It wasn't a particularly happy experience. In one e-mail to me, he joked, "As far as I can gather, not many people at Defense liked this woman, and the sense I got was that she wasn't their problem anymore now that she was in Ira | [

q. Maybe they were hoping that she'd step on a mine. I certainly was."
Miller guarded her exclusive access with ferocity. When the Post's Barton Gellman overlapped in MET Alpha for a day, Miller instructed its members not to talk to him.
According to Pomeroy, as well as an editor at the Times, Miller had helped negotiate her own embedding agreement with the Pentagon—an agreement so sensitive that, according to one Times editor, Rumsfeld himself signed off on it. Although she never fully acknowledged the specific terms of that arrangement in her articles, they were as stringent as any conditions imposed on any reporter in Iraq. "Any articles going out had to be, well, censored," Pomeroy told me. "The mission contained some highly classified elements and people, what we dubbed the 'Secret Squirrels,' and their 'sources and methods' had to be protected and a war was about to start." Before she filed her copy, it would be censored by a colonel who often read the article in his sleeping bag, clutching a small flashlight between his teeth. (When reporters attended tactical meetings with battlefield commanders, they faced similar restrictions.)
As Miller covered MET Alpha, it became increasingly clear that she had ceased to respect the boundaries between being an observer and a participant. And as an embedded reporter she went even further, several sources say. While traveling with MET Alpha, according to Pomeroy and one other witness, she wore a military uniform.
When Colonel Richard McPhee ordered MET Alpha to pull back from a search mission and regroup in the town of Talil, Miller disagreed vehemently with the decision—and let her opinions be loudly known. The Washington Post's Howard Kurtz reprinted a note in which she told public-affairs officers that she would write negatively about his decision if McPhee didn't back down. What's more, Kurtz reported that Miller complained to her friend Major General David Petraeus. Even though McPhee's unit fell outside the general's line of command, Petraeus's rank gave his recommendation serious heft. According to Kurtz, in an account that was later denied, "McPhee rescinded his withdrawal order after Petraeus advised him to do so."
Miller guarded her exclusive access with ferocity. When the Washington Post's Barton Gellman overlapped in the unit for a day, Miller instructed its members that they couldn't talk with him. According to Pomeroy, "She told people that she had clearance to be there and Bart didn't." (One other witness confirms this account.)
As MET Alpha began its work in April, Miller sent home a blockbuster about an Iraqi scientist in her unit's custody. According to Miller, the scientist had told the unit that Iraq had destroyed chemical- and biological-warfare equipment on the eve of the war. And—here's the real coup—the scientist had led the squad to buried ingredients for chemical-weapons production. Although she told readers that her unit prevented her from naming these precursor elements or the scientist, the military did permit Miller to view him from a distance. "Clad in nondescript clothes and a baseball cap, he pointed to several spots in the sand where he said chemical precursors and other weapons material were buried," she wrote. And on PBS's NewsHour, she was even more emphatic: "What they found is a silver bullet in the form of a person."
But these scoops, like the story about the scientist, tended to melt quickly in the Iraqi desert. And very soon into the postwar era, the costs of her embedding agreement and her passion for the story became clear. Even though she had more access to MET Alpha, the best seat in the house, she was the only major reporter on the WMD beat to miss the story so completely. MET Alpha was a bumbling unit; and even if it hadn't been bumbling, it wouldn't have made a difference—there were no WMDs. The Post's Gellman, on the other hand, hadn't embedded with a unit, and didn't negotiate any access agreements. What's more, he had the intellectual honesty to repudiate some of his own earlier reporting. He came away from Iraq with a stark, honest story: "Odyssey of Frustration: In Search for Weapons, Army Team Finds | [

Vacuum Cleaners."
When the Times published its editor's note last week, it read, "Editors at several levels who should have been challenging reporters and pressing for more skepticism were perhaps too intent on rushing scoops into the paper."
This was a bit too sweeping. While there were no heroes within the Times, there were editors who raised serious and consistent doubts about Miller's reportage. During the run-up to the war, investigations editor Doug Frantz and foreign editor Roger Cohen went to managing editor Gerald Boyd on several occasions with concerns about Miller's overreliance on Chalabi and his Pentagon champions, especially Undersecretary of Defense Douglas Feith. For instance, Frantz rejected a proposal for a story in which Pentagon officials claimed to have identified between 400 and 1,000 WMD sites, without providing much backup evidence to justify their claims. "At the time, people knew her reporting was suspect and they said so," one Timesman told me. But Raines and Boyd continually reaffirmed management's faith in her by putting her stories on page 1. (Both Boyd and Raines declined to speak for this story.)
Raines had a clear reason to defend Miller. By early 2002, she had become one of the paper's most valuable assets. The Times was being soundly challenged by the Washington Post in its coverage of the war on terror. He'd been especially irked by the attention that his rival garnered with Bob Woodward's meaty reporting from inside the CIA and FBI throughout the fall and winter, tracing preparations for war in Afghanistan and early investigations into 9/11. For a man who made it his mission to raise the paper's "competitive metabolism" and expressed his thoughts in sports metaphors, the defeat was especially painful. Judith Miller was the strongest card he had to play. No other reporter had managed to win the trust of the administration hawks and could so consistently deliver Post-beating scoops.
There were also ideological reasons for him to turn to Miller. During the summer of 2002, Raines had taken a beating for stories by Patrick Tyler that raised questions about support for the war among the Republican foreign-policy establishment. (To be sure, Tyler's story had arguably attributed antiwar sentiments to Henry Kissinger that he didn't hold.) The Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol pummeled Raines for surrendering to his biases, placing the Times in an "axis of appeasement" that had "now mobilized in a desperate effort to deflect the president from implementing his policy."
The Raines response was very un-Rainesian. Instead of "flooding the zone" and pushing ahead with a crusade, he told one close friend that he wanted to prove that he could cover a story straight. An ex-Times editor told me, "He wanted to throw off his liberal credentials and demonstrate that he was fair-minded about the Bush administration. This meant that he bent over backwards to back them often." In October 2002, James Risen ran an authoritative story casting serious doubt on a purported Prague meeting between the 9/11 terrorist Mohammad Atta and Iraqi intelligence—a meeting that supporters of the war trumpeted as evidence of a Bin Laden–Hussein nexus. Because the story had run in the Monday paper, Raines didn't have a chance to vet it over the weekend. After the fact, he complained to an editor that it had gone too far. A former editor says, "In the months before the war, Raines consistently objected to articles that questioned the administration's claims about Iraq's links to Al Qaeda and September 11 while never raising a doubt about Miller's more dubiously sourced pieces about the presence of weapons of mass destruction."
Another management problem was that Miller, like many in her profession, didn't take well to editing. "Judy has never been shy about crawling over the heads of editors," says one retired Times colleague. And Raines had crafted Judy's assignment so that it became extremely easy for her to circumvent the desks. According to one of her editors, she worked stories for investigative one day, foreign the next, and the Washington bureau the day after. It was never clear who controlled or edited her. When one desk stymied her, she'd simply hustle over to another and pitch her story there | [

. It was an editorial vacuum worsened by the absence of a top editor on the investigative unit, her nominal home. Between Doug Frantz's departure for the Los Angeles Times in March 2003 and Matthew Purdy's arrival in January 2004, Miller had almost no high-level supervision from editors with investigative experience.
Many editors I spoke to consider Miller to be such a high-maintenance, uncollegial writer that they'd rather not deal with her at all. One Times veteran says, "She considers us to be her minions." The process of editing her sounds like an exercise in misery, requiring a constant subjection to her fits of anger; it draws editors into her interoffice disputes with other reporters. Another adds, "There's only one editor who has had the skill, energy, and willingness to harness her energy—Stephen Engelberg." But after Engelberg edited a series on Al Qaeda for which Miller and her unit won a Pulitzer in 2001, he left the paper, leaving Miller without the strong hand capable of directing and containing her zealousness. It was a perilous dynamic: By being so difficult, she became so much more vulnerable to journalistic sins than her more affable colleagues.
So why did it take so long to run an editor's note? In the newsroom, there are several theories. The first, and least persuasive, is the Sulzberger factor. "There was always the sense, true or not, that she had a benefactor at the top," says Seth Faison. When Miller joined the Times in the late seventies, she arrived in the Washington bureau at about the same time as Arthur Sulzberger Jr.—a recent college graduate getting hands-on experience in the shop floor of the family business. The D.C. office had only about half a dozen reporters under the age of 35, including Sulzberger, Miller, Steve Rattner, and Phil Taubman. They clung to one another. After work, they would retire to Duke Zeibert's for a drink. The crowd became even more sociable. When Miller dated Rattner, they shared a weekend house on the Eastern Shore of Maryland with Sulzberger and his wife, Gail. There's no evidence that Sulzberger ever directly intervened to help Miller, and Miller has undergone enough career reversals to make this hard to believe. Still, that friendship has become well known within the newsroom. Fairly or unfairly, there's a sense that Miller has protection at the absolute top—and that fear reportedly deters some editors from challenging her.
The timing of the editor's note probably had far more to do with the ethos Bill Keller hoped to set for his regime. When he took the job, he promised to avoid ugly recriminations against Raines's favorites. He felt it was time to move on. His paper would be a far friendlier, more humane place. In a September meeting, according to two sources at the paper, he quietly removed Miller from her coverage of Iraqi WMD. (She denies she was pulled from the beat.) But Keller didn't want to make a public issue out of this. At a lunch with the paper's Washington bureau this spring, reporter Douglas Jehl questioned him on the paper's WMD coverage, asking if the Times owed its readers a thorough reconsideration of its use of Chalabi. Keller replied that he didn't want to single out any specific reporters for abuse—the same line the paper took in the editor's note. He believed it was enough to correct the coverage itself. And it might have been were it not for the combustion of Miller's critics outside and inside the newsroom, all spurred on by the deteriorating situation in Iraq, which forced even the U.S. government to disown the notorious source at the center of the story.
While the Times has conducted its inquiry, Miller's WMD coverage has also occasioned a series of less high-minded questions: namely, does Judy Miller live in an apartment divided? During the past year, three intriguing documents have been pushed into the public view that may shed light on this matter. Since 1993, Miller has been married to Jason Epstein, the legendary Random House editor who reinvented paperback publishing in the early fifties. Last May, in the New York Review of Books, Epstein published an excoriation of the Bush administration's march to war. The war, he | [

blared, was "a preemptive assault whose urgency has not been adequately explained and for which no satisfactory explanation, beyond the zealotry of its sponsors, may exist." This can be rather effortlessly interpreted as a shot across his wife's bow: Hadn't Miller's oeuvre painted a sufficiently frightening picture of Saddam's arsenal?
Document No. 2 also appeared in the New York Review. Before I cite the article, however, it is necessary to say a brief word about the venue. Epstein was a founding father of the journal. His first wife, Barbara Epstein, remains an editor there. Therefore, the Review's pages were odd ones to showcase a vivisection of Judy Miller's reporting. But last February, the Review published the critic Michael Massing's devastating analysis of Miller's work. Document No. 3 helps set the Massing article in context. The same month that Barbara Epstein ran Massing's piece, Jason Epstein paid tribute to her in a New York Times Magazine food column. Writing a poignant reminiscence of their 1953 honeymoon, he told readers: "The marriage proved to be bountiful. When after many years, it ended, the love that we celebrated on that December day [their wedding day] remained intact."
Predictably, the editor's note inaugurated a new round of grumbling inside the paper. Reporters complained that the note had mentioned no names, implicitly equating Miller's sins with those of less-culpable reporters like Michael Gordon and Chris Hedges. Others remarked that it had been buried on A10, not a space normally reserved for serious statements about the paper. One Timesman speculated that these complaints would wend their way into the press: "The rumbling on this reminds me of all the Howell-Blair stuff. Once people started complaining publicly … the proverbial cat was out of the bag." And of course, by making this observation to me, he had fulfilled his own prophecy. A few days later, Daniel Okrent, the public editor, was expected to unveil the conclusions of his own investigation, one he had vowed not to conduct because it concerned events that preceded his—and the new, kinder, more transparent Times'—arrival.
But making the process more transparent is easier than reforming the profession itself, which inevitably relies on people. People like Miller, with her outsize journalistic temperament of ambition, obsession, and competitive fervor, relying on people like Ahmad Chalabi, with his smooth, affable exterior retailing false information for his own motives, for the benefit of people reading a newspaper, trying to get at the truth of what's what.

Impact Mapping has taken off in the last few years from its roots in user experience strategy and design, and adopted by small startups and big enterprise software companies alike. The simplicity and effectiveness of the method got the community to experiment with using it in various contexts, from facilitating innovation workshops for new products, to stakeholder alignment in legacy enterprise projects, defining testing strategies, team problem solving, software delivery process improvement, and even organisational improvement on a larger scale. Crossing outside the world of software delivery, practitioners have even applied it to help Egyptian orphanages and Indonesian hospitals.
All the recent popularity is providing an immense amount of front-line feedback, and helping to refine and improve the method. At the same time, many different voices advocating slightly different approaches are confusing new practitioners, in particular with the use of impact maps for software product delivery.
Ingrid Domingues, Johan Berndtsson and Gojko Adzic met up in July this year to compare the various approaches and community feedback and investigate how to get the most out of this method in different contexts. The conclusion was that there are two key factors to consider for software delivery using impact maps, and recognising the right context is crucial to get the most out of the method. The two important dimensions are the consequences of being wrong (making the the wrong product management decisions) and the ability to make investments.
The first dimension, the consequences of being wrong, divides organisations into two groups based on how important it is for product ideas to be validated before they get accepted into delivery. On one end of the scale, building and shipping innovative physical products carries an immense financial risk of wrong product decisions.
The PCjr computer is widely regarded as one of the biggest flops in history, costing IBM over half a billion dollars in 1985. On the other end of the scale, online services can today cheaply experiment with product ideas, validating assumptions on real users and significantly bringing down the risk of being wrong. Continuous delivery, staged deployments, A/B testing with immediate feedback make it easy to check ideas and confirm what works and what fails. This was made famous in 2009, in a controversial episode at Google, when proposed design changes were quickly compared to almost forty other options, and proven to potentially cost the company 200 million dollars per year (Google's top designer quit in response).
Several important factors contribute to the risk, including the existence or absence of infrastructure (new product delivery vs enhancing existing services), and type of service or product (security-sensitive, medical and life threatening vs social networks and online games).
The second dimension, the ability to make investments, divides organisations into two groups based on how much certainty they need before approving or rejecting a product idea. In the public sector, early-stage startups and when working on innovative product design, budgets are often limited and constrained. It's difficult to make investment decisions. In such situations, impact maps help to facilitate impact management - driving product discovery experiments and ensuring that organisations design, test, refine and deliver product ideas cost-effectively, leading to a clearer product definition before a big investment. On the other end of the scale are established companies with existing products, where the budgets are already allocated and often have to be spent. In such situations, impact maps mostly help spend the budget wisely on initiatives that create the largest impact.
The two factors lead to four different ways to explore, define and evaluate impact, thus four different ways for using impact maps.
Iterate: good ability to make investments, and small consequences of being wrong. For example, internal enterprise initiatives, or a well-functioning consumer services with an existing infrastructure and ability to deploy small software changes to users incrementally. In such cases, impact maps can help product management visualise assumptions, define desired business impacts and explore user needs. Direct and immediate feedback from the use of the product proves or disproves various ideas cheaply and quickly. Impact maps can help define small milestones, and customer research can be done on a subset of users in a production environment, concurrently with product delivery. Impact maps are effectively short-term product plans, and the feedback from real use drives frequent re-planning and creating new maps through small milestones. In effect, products are continuous prototypes. Teams in this context will do well to start with a rough impact map, and then evolve the map as they iterate through small deliveries.
Align: poor ability to decide on investments, small consequences of being wrong. These are typically organisations with many decision makers competing for the same budget | [

or resources, which is often the case in the public sector. Milestones tend to be larger than in the Iterate group, and the challenge tends to be selecting among many different initiatives within the organisation. Impact maps can help define larger milestones, and mainly help teams drive stakeholder alignment and prioritisation. Getting stakeholders together around an impact map helps to choose where to invest effort, so that the entire organisation is driving in the same direction. Teams in this context will do well if they align all stakeholders using an impact map for larger milestones, and use impact maps as a high-level vision for delivery.
Experiment: Good ability to make investments, serious consequences of being wrong. Organisations in this context have readily available budgets, but cannot roll out product ideas quickly to end-users. This might be either because of product risk (eg medical devices) or organisational constraints (eg the launch of a new version of the product is set far in the future for marketing reasons and parts cannot be revealed early). Revealing delighters and experimenting around the ocean of possible solutions is key. Impact Maps can help reveal business opportunities, define options and compare different solutions. Teams in this context will do well if they try several options through user research before committing to one solution, and use impact maps to drive product experimentation and determine which variant contributes best to overall organisational goals.
Discover: poor ability to make investments, serious consequences of being wrong. This is the zone of innovative physical products, medical devices and initiatives with huge financial risk, but on a limited budget or with difficult investment processes. Running experiments in production isn't an option, and the need to reveal needs and ensure a design that works in use is crucial. In such situations, organisations should use impact mapping to lead customer research, decide on business impact, evaluate prototypes on test users, and help product managers define scope and solutions for the final product. Initial impact maps aren't product roadmaps directly, they help to visualise assumptions and run research which will lead to product roadmaps instead. Teams in this context will do well to focus on product discovery and validate impact for users before committing to delivery.
Choosing the right approach is crucial in order to get the most out of the method.
Iterate. Organisations will benefit from taking some initial time defining the desired impact, and then exploring different solutions with small and directed impact maps that help design and evaluate deliverables against desired outcome.
Align. Organisations will benefit from detailing the user needs analysis in order to make more directed decisions, and to drive prioritisation for longer pieces of work. Usually only parts of maps end up being delivered.
Experiment. Organisations can explore different product options and user needs in multiple impact maps.
Discover. The initial hypothesis impact map is detailed by user studies and user testing that converge towards the desired impact.
Impact mapping is a strategic planning and visualisation technique with roots in user experience strategy and design. An impact map visually connects solution ideas (deliverables, such as user stories) to business goals through impacts on stakeholders and customer segments. By putting deliverables into perspective of user needs and behaviour changes, and putting user needs into the perspective of overall organisational objectives, an impact map visualises assumptions. This helps to create a big picture for software delivery and facilitates many good product management techniques, such as customer research and iterative planning, as well as helping stakeholders align and prioritise iterative delivery.
The first paper on impact mapping was published in 2002 by Domingues and Berndtsson et al. Using impact maps for IT projects was described in the 2004 book Effektstyrning av IT (Swedish) and the 2007 book Effect Managing IT (out of print). In Sweden, Impact Mapping and Management caught on fast and is today widely used within software and development. Impact Mapping crossed over to the agile software delivery at the start of the decade, and the agile software development community helped to spread the word about the method at some of the most important conferences in the US, Europe and Oceania, to informal meetups all over the world, including Australia and Japan. The agile delivery aspect of Impact Mapping was described by Gojko Adzic in the 2012 book Impact Mapping, which was recently translated to Chinese and Japanese.

The Vikings' pass defense has quietly adjusted in 2018
Photo: Vikings.com
What has allowed the Vikings' pass defense to quietly catch stride? Daniel House takes a look at the numbers and tendencies.
After a slow start to the season, the Vikings' pass defense has quietly returned to form.
In the past nine games, the Vikings' defense has allowed only two quarterbacks accumulate more than 200 passing yards. Sam Darnold (206 yards) and Tom Brady (311 yards) were the only two quarterbacks to exceed this benchmark. The Vikings' pass defense has quietly covered extremely well in the backend. After struggling earlier this year, the tide has quickly shifted.
Entering November, the Vikings' defense was allowing 24.4 points per game and the secondary was gashed throughout September. Rams quarterback Jared Goff tossed for 465 yards and five touchdowns, while Carson Wentz passed for 311 yards and a pair of scores. Following the Vikings' 38-31 loss to the Rams, head coach Mike Zimmer was critical of his pass defense.
"Probably, anywhere I've ever been, I've never been this poor in pass coverage, so we're going to have to look at everything we're doing at get back to doing things correctly," Zimmer said.
Following the game, Minnesota ranked No. 26 in pass defense and allowed 9.2 yards per play over the first four games. Zimmer certainly made some adjustments to stop the bleeding. He started playing more Cover-3 and occasionally sent aggressive pressure packages. He trusted his players to cover on the outside and get after the quarterback with a blend of four-man rushes and pressure. Zimmer figured defenses would eventually catch up to the early season offensive surge -- he was right.
The timely use of pressure has helped the Vikings cover well and create chaos. The usage of Cover-0 blitzes, nickel pressure and zone looks have kept quarterbacks on their heels. Minnesota became the second team since 1990 and the seventh since the 1970 merger to post at least nine sacks in multiple regular season games. The combination of sound coverage in the backend and a steady pass rush has helped the defense settle in. They now rank No. 3 in pass defense and No. 11 against the run. The Vikings also lead the league in sacks with 50.
Zimmer and the staff have found a way to adjust the scheme by blending between Cover-0, Cover-3 and Cover-4 concepts. The rise in performance from cornerback Mackensie Alexander and safety Anthony Harris has provided a major lift to the pass defense, too. According to Nick Olson, Anthony Harris has a 20.1 passer rating when targeted this season. It's the lowest rating recorded in the NFL this season. His coverage skills and physical presence in the box has helped bring versatility to the Vikings' defense.
Not only that, but Mackensie Alexander has been one of the top-rated cornerbacks in the league over final half of the season. His technique has improved and he's been in the correct position to make plays on the ball. Not only that, he has been helpful as a downhill nickel blitzer. When the Vikings bring Harrison Smith into the box, offensive line units have to respect him with their protection calls. It left plenty of opportunities for Alexander to pick up four sacks this season. Top cornerback Xavier Rhodes has been battling injuries for a large portion of the season, which has thrust undrafted rookie Holton Hill into action. Hill has been playing a high volume of off coverage earlier in his career. In this type of coverage, he has shown the ability to break on the football and get into passing lanes. Those skills, combined with his tackling, were a couple areas that stood out on his prospect film at Texas. He will continue to improve with the additional experience he gained this season. The defensive back room has performed very well, despite occasional injuries to Rhodes, Trae Waynes and the season-ending ACL tear sustained by first-round pick Mike Hughes.
Young players have stepped up in larger roles and it's a credit to defensive backs coach Jerry Gray. The technique of these players has improved across the board. In addition to Gray, former Vikings cornerback Terence Newman has clearly been a positive mentor to the Vikings' defensive backs. After deciding to retire before the season, Newman has | [

been coaching members of the secondary. His expertise has paid off for players like Mackensie Alexander and Holton Hill this season. Growth in the technical components, combined with scheme adjustments, has helped the Vikings' defense return to form.
They also have continued to perform well on third down. When the defense slows opposing rushing attacks, they set themselves up for success. The Vikings are allowing opponent third down conversions at a league-best 28.41% clip. This number shifts to 25.61% (No. 1 in league) when Minnesota plays at home. In fact, many of the defensive statistics improve when the Vikings are playing at U.S. Bank Stadium.
They rank No. 1 in total yards (259 YPG), passing yards (162 YPG) and sack percentage (14.29%) at home. Minnesota has also allowed just four touchdown passes in seven games at U.S. Bank Stadium. This includes performances against Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers. Brees passed for just 120 yards, a touchdown and an interception, while Rodgers tossed for 198 yards and one touchdown. The Vikings are allowing 162 passing yards per game and opponents are averaging just 19 points per game (No. 7 in NFL). Not only that, but teams have mustered just 4.5 yards per play and 16.1 first downs per game (No. 2 in NFL) within the hostile confines of U.S. Bank Stadium.
With the Vikings needing a win over the Bears to earn a spot in the playoffs, there is arguably no better place for them to play. The defense has been solid on the road, but has accomplished significant and impressive feats at home.
Chicago averages just 4.9 yards per play on the road, which is the sixth worst mark in the NFL. They have also posted 319.9 yards per game away from Solider Field, which is the tenth lowest mark in the league. The key on the road has been the Bears' ability to dictate the game's tempo. In road games, they are fourth in time of possession and control 52% of the clock. They are also +.6 in road turnover differential, which is the third-best mark in football. Chicago nearly has a +.8 overall turnover margin, which ranks third behind only Seattle and Houston, according to Team Rankings.
The key for Minnesota is to take care of the football and take advantage of takeaways they may receive if quarterback Mitchell Trubisky makes a mistake. A large portion of his blunders have been the result of overthrows or errant downfield passes. Chicago will try to get the Vikings' defense moving laterally to create explosive plays through misdirection and deception. If Minnesota can stop the rushing attack and remain disciplined in early downs, it will put the Bears in less than desirable late down situations. When placed in third down situations with 8-10 yards to go, the Chicago offense has completed just 10 of their 25 attempts (40%) this year. This is an area the Vikings' defense has thrived within, too.
If the Vikings want to win this game, they must find a way sustain drives and limit Chicago's defensive attack. Khalil Mack, Akiem Hicks and Eddie Goldman have been playing at an extremely high level and the Vikings will need to account for their presence. In last month's matchup, the Vikings were without tight end David Morgan and he'll likely be tasked with chipping Mack throughout the day. You can expect Minnesota to get the ball out quickly and use heavy personnel sets to give Kirk Cousins additional time.
If the offense can score more than 20 points, the Vikings will have a chance to win the game. If they do, it will likely set up the same matchup in Chicago for the Wild Card round. Minnesota's defense will allow them to compete, but like many instances this season, it will come down to whether the offense can find any rhythm or identity.

If President Kennedy hadn't been killed, would we have landed on the Moon on July 20, 1969? It seems unlikely.
JFK's private conversations and public statements in his last year as president crackle with high-stakes gamesmanship and Cold War intrigue.

This is the 47th in an exclusive series of 50 articles, one published each day until July 20, exploring the 50th anniversary of the first-ever Moon landing. You can check out 50 Days to the Moon here every day.
In the weeks before he was assassinated, John F. Kennedy was getting cold feet about the race to the Moon.
It was the fall of 1963, and a lot had changed for him—and the world—in the two-and-a-half years since his rallying call, in May 1961, for America to go to the Moon.
Kennedy had faced down the Soviet Union during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962. Kennedy had given a dramatic speech—the 1963 commencement at American University—calling for a complete upending of the Cold War. The U.S. and the U.S.S.R. had amassed such vast stocks of weapons, and operated in a state of constant edginess, that in the event of war—even in the event of miscalculation—"All we have built, all we have worked for, would be destroyed in the first 24 hours."
Two months later, in the summer of 1963, Kennedy and Khrushchev signed the first-ever treaty limiting nuclear weapons.
Publicly, Kennedy had become the nation's poet laureate of space. The previous year, in September 1962, during a tour of the nation's major space facilities, he gave a soaring speech at Rice University in Houston about the power and importance of space travel. Kennedy told Americans and the world that space was a kind of manifest destiny, and that its challenges perfectly matched the American character.

"The United States was not built by those who waited and rested and wished to look behind them," Kennedy said. "This country was conquered by those who moved forward, and so will space (be) . . . . No nation which expects to be the leader of other nations can expect to stay behind in this race for space."
Speaking near the site of what would become the Manned Spacecraft Center, and Mission Control, Kennedy predicted that Houston would become the headquarters of a "new frontier of science and space."
"We choose to go to the Moon," Kennedy said. "We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win."
Kennedy's speech at Rice University that morning is considered not just the best speech ever given by a U.S. president about space, but one of the best presidential speeches of any kind. It was sincere, but it was also politics.
If America was going to the Moon—and in the fall of 1962, Apollo was a pillar of Kennedy's efforts—the president needed not only Congressional backing but also popular support.
In private, though, Kennedy viewed going to the Moon not as a natural expression of the American spirit, but in pragmatic political terms. He had picked the Moon as the goal in order to beat the Soviets in space. For Kennedy, Apollo was a Cold War mission: to re-establish American pre-eminence in science, technology, and engineering.

the White House, with microphones to record his meetings and phone calls in the Oval Office, and in the Cabinet Room. Unlike Richard Nixon's system, which was voice-activated, Kennedy picked which meetings and calls he wanted to record. He pressed a button in the Oval Office or on the Cabinet Room table, which lit a light on his secretary Evelyn Lincoln's desk, and she then started the recording equipment.
JFK's creeping doubt
On November 21, 1962, Kennedy met with nine senior NASA and administration officials to talk about the agency's progress—and also about the budget. It was a bit of a fractious meeting. Kennedy himself was already impatient with NASA's progress. He pushed for a Moon landing in 1967, something none of the senior NASA officials thought possible.
Kennedy also pushed for NASA to set aside what he thought of as "space science" in favor of focusing all energy on beating the Russians to the Moon.

"The whole thrust of the Agency, in my opinion, is the lunar program," Kennedy said. "The rest of it can wait six or nine months . . . . Everything we do ought to be really tied into getting onto the Moon ahead of the Russians."
A moment later, in a burst of frustration and to underscore his point, Kennedy said, "By God, we've been telling everybody we're preeminent in space for five years, and nobody believes it."
That is why he wanted to go to the Moon. To prove it.

The Moon landing, Kennedy said to those in the Cabinet Room, "is the top priority program of the Agency, and one of the two things—except for Defense—the top priority of the United States government.
"Otherwise, we shouldn't be spending this kind of money, because I'm not that interested in space. I think it's good. I think we ought to know about it. We're ready to spend reasonable amounts of money. But we're talking about these fantastic expenditures which wreck our budget."
The meeting is so frank and so remarkable, you might not credit it if you couldn't listen to it on tape.
"A tough job. A real tough job."
A year later, two dramatic things happened, one in private, one in public.
In private, we have another tape-recorded meeting, this one in the Oval Office, with just Kennedy and the head of NASA, James Webb.
It was September 18, 1963, and the meeting was again about money, but also about the politics of sustaining support for going to the Moon through 1964—a presidential election year.
But first, Webb had bad news—or at least deeply disappointing news—for his boss. It was at this moment that Webb told Kennedy that the U.S. wouldn't land on the Moon while he was President, even if he was re-elected in 1964, as expected.
The Moon landing, Webb said, wouldn't happen until 1969.
It's a startling moment, and in the tape recording you can hear Kennedy's surprise and disappointment.
"If I get re-elected, we're not going to the Moon in our period, are we?" said Kennedy.
"No. No. You're not going," said Webb.
"We're not going . . . . It's just going to take longer than that. This is a tough job. A real tough job."

to set that aside and assess the situation from Kennedy's perspective as he looked over the next five years.
At that moment, in the fall of 1963, the U.S. space program had started to mature dramatically. It was catching up, and the Soviets were, for the moment, out of "space spectaculars," as Kennedy called them. Relations with the Soviets had warmed. Kennedy himself, in his own words, wasn't that interested in space. And the budget was a problem: That was the reason the Moon landing had slipped from 1968 to 1969.
So why should Kennedy continue to push hard for something he wouldn't be in office to enjoy and get credit for? Something that he wasn't, quietly, that enthusiastic about? Something that was becoming less necessary in geopolitical terms?
A moment later Kennedy says to Webb, "Do you think the manned landing on the Moon's a good idea?"
What a remarkable question from the President whose idea it was to go in the first place.
Throughout the rest of the meeting, Webb reassured Kennedy again and again about Apollo's value. Right at the end, Webb said, "I predict you're not going to be sorry—ever—that you did this."
An abrupt reversal
Two days later, Kennedy gave a stunning speech at the United Nations, where he proposed, publicly, that instead of racing the Soviet Union to the Moon, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. should do the Moon landing together.
"Why . . . should man's first flight to the Moon be a matter of national competition?" he asked, before the General Assembly.
The president who had spent more than two years explaining why the race to the Moon had to be a matter of national skill and pre-eminence, a contest between democracy and totalitarianism, was now proposing exactly the opposite.
The idea stunned Congress—and NASA. The front page story in the next day's New York Times was headlined, with admirable directness: "Washington Is Surprised by President's Proposal." Texas Congressman Olin Teague, a senior member of the House Science Committee, said of going to the Moon with the Russians, "I'd just as soon cooperate with any rattlesnake in Texas."

NASA told the Kennedy Administration the idea simply wasn't practical. NASA was having enough trouble mating parts from different U.S. companies, working together, on the same project.
In San Antonio a couple months later, on the trip during which he would be killed, Kennedy dedicated a center devoted to space medicine research. In doing so, he said he was so pleased to see how the U.S. was catching up with the Soviets in space and would soon pass them in some important areas. In the speech he never got to give—the speech he was driving to deliver when he was killed—Kennedy planned to tell the crowd of Democrats in Dallas that because of his administration's energetic space program, "There is no longer any doubt about the strength and skill of American science, American industry, American education, and the American free enterprise system."
Space, he would have said, was a source of "national strength."
It all had the air of a president who was starting to maneuver, gradually, to letting Congress set the pace of the Moon mission, proffering whatever money they decided Apollo deserved. Kennedy could advocate for NASA and the race to the Moon, and also shrug and claim that he couldn't make Congress give it more money than they were.
A dream deferred
Once the U.S. wasn't going to make it to the Moon in his own presidency, once Kennedy could point to U.S. excellence in space well short of the Moon, it's easy to see how he might have thought that another year or two's delay—especially if he could fund other things he was committed to—wasn't that big a deal.
That's why, in fact, it's hard to imagine that if Kennedy had been president in 1964 and then re-elected for a second term, that we would be celebrating the 50th anniversary of a Moon landing this week.
Going to the Moon was so difficult, and required so much political | [

Japan creates 1st Artificial Rare Metal
As first in the world, Japanese researchers have produced a new alloy similar to the rare metal palladium, a breakthrough that could help alleviate the nation's dependence on other countries for this resource. The alloy was produced with nanotechnology and has properties similar to those of palladium, a rare metal located between rhodium and silver on the periodic table of the elements. Led by Prof. Hiroshi Kitagawa of Kyoto University, the research team also produced alternatives to other kinds of rare metals.
Kyoto Temple provides 3D Look at the Past - via iPad!
A Buddhist temple in Kyoto is displaying its historic sculptures in 3D on iPads in a bid to provide 21st century appreciation of the artefacts. The project has been launched at Byodoin, one of the nation's oldest temples dating back nearly 1,000 years and a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site.Five iPads have been installed alongside a series of historic Buddhist sculptures in the temple, located in the Kyoto region, displaying images of the artworks in three-dimensional form.
How to struggle with Bilinguality, part 2
The main problem with Japan's English-language education lies in its sterile approach to words, as if a grasp of their exact meaning is sufficient preparation for understanding and speaking the language. It isn't. You can't look at a box of paint tubes and visualize a Rembrandt. Words have no meaning outside the context of culture, history and the personalities of native speakers.
How to struggle with Bilinguality?
To continue or not continue? That seems to be the question facing a good 10 percent of the Japanese population. These are people grappling with the horns of an ornery dilemma.

Rodriguez handles Mayfair as Cerritos stays in upper half of Suburban League
SUBURBAN LEAGUE BASEBALL
By Loren Kopff

LAKEWOOD-Jamriel Rodriguez has been in the United States for seven months but already he is making a huge impact for the Cerritos High baseball team as it pursues a coveted playoff berth. The native of Carolina, Puerto Rico, just southeast of the capital San Juan, was completely masterful against Mayfair High this past Monday.
Rodriguez went the distance, scattering four hits and striking out five as the Dons pulled away late for a 6-1 victory. The game was a makeup from three days earlier but the delay didn't seem to get to Rodriguez at all. He threw 99 pitches and pitched his second complete game of the season while improving to 5-2.
"Before I go to pitch, I try to stay relaxed and enjoy the game," Rodriguez said. "I try to get routine [ground] ball plays and do what only I know how to do."
"We decided if Jammer can get us a sweep, it's well worth it," said Cerritos assistant coach Brooks Walling. "We're going to have to take one game at a time now. We needed the win, definitely. That puts us at 4-0 [in league] and Mayfair 0-4 and backs them up. Basically seven wins gets you in the playoffs in this league and we need three to go. We know that."
Cerritos, which had gotten a complete game, three-hit shutout from senior Kyle Suezaki on Apr. 6 against the Monsoons, improved to 11-7 overall and 4-0 in league at that time. It's the best league start for the Dons since joining the circuit in 1999. Previously, the best Suburban League beginning was in 2005 when the Dons won their first two league games.
Cerritos gave Rodriguez all the run support he needed very early with a pair of runs in the top of the first inning. With one out, senior center fielder Tyler Beyer beat out a chopper in front of Mayfair's shortstop and was safe on an infield hit. That was followed by a base hit to center from junior catcher Brett Wells. After a strikeout, Beyer stole home and moments later, a single from freshman first baseman Bernardo DeLeon plated Wells.
"That was huge," Walling said. "Beyer hit a chopper and he can flat out fly; we know that. Wells clutched up with a 0-2 base hit. Beyer was running and [Mayfair] vacated and it snuck through. Jumping out 2-0 was huge."
Rodriguez was getting help from his defense in the first two innings with a pair of double plays and through the first two frames, he had thrown just 15 pitches. But after striking out his counterpart, Landon Anderson, to begin the third, he issued back to back walks to Kenny Luna and Matt Gutierrez. At the same time, the Mayfair players were heckling Rodriguez from the dugout, but that didn't seem to faze the Puerto Rican.
Even though he gave up an unearned run when A.J. Quezada was safe on a two-out error, Rodriguez struck out Jesse Brooks to end further damage, then allowed only one Monsoon to reach third base the remainder of the game.
"He's hard to rattle and coming here on a Monday, on the road with a big mound he's not used to, it took him three to four innings to settle in," Walling said. "The 15 pitches in the first two innings are because of the two double plays. He had good stuff today."
"In that situation, I never hear that," Rodriguez said. "In that situation, I have something in my mechanics and I try to stay comfortable. [The noises] don't matter. I just keep throwing strikes."
Cerritos added an insurance run in the fifth when senior right fielder Jason Prieto-Burnham singled to right and advanced on an error. Junior shortstop Trevor McInerney also singled to right to put runners at the corners before Beyer was safe on Mayfair's second miscue | [

"Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen"
A shower of comets rains down on Earth while violent volcanic eruptions billow up from below. Both events may follow our planet's passage through dark matter concentrated in the Milky Way's plane and help to trigger extinction events.
Are we on the verge of understanding the upheavals that have shaped the earth?
Do geologists dream of a final theory? Most people would say that plate tectonics already serves as geology's overarching idea. The discovery of plate tectonics 50 years ago was one of the great scientific achievements of the 20th century, but is the theory complete? I think not. Plate tectonics describes Earth's present geology in terms of the geometry and interactions of its surface plates. Geologists can extrapolate plate motions both back in time and into the future, but they cannot yet derive the behavior and history of plate tectonics from first principles.
Although scientists can interpret the history through the lens of what they see today, an important question remains: Why did geologic events — such as hot-spot volcanism, the breakup of continents, fluctuations in seafloor spreading, tectonic episodes, and sea-level oscillations — occur exactly when and where they did? Are they random, or do they follow some sort of a pattern in time or space?
A complete theory of Earth should explain geologic activity in the spatial domain, as plate tectonics does quite well for the present (once you incorporate hot spots), but also in the time and frequency domains. Recent findings suggest to me that geology may be on the threshold of a new theory that seeks to explain Earth's geologic activity in time and space in the context of its astronomical surroundings.
The solar system oscillates with respect to the midplane of the disk-shaped Milky Way Galaxy with a period of about 60 million years. The Sun's family passes through this plane twice each period, or once every 30 million years or so. The solar system behaves like a horse on a carousel — as we go around the disk-shaped galaxy, we bob up and down through the disk, passing through its densest part roughly every 30 million years.
Surely, it is too much of a coincidence that the cycle found in mass extinctions and impact craters should turn out to be one of the fundamental periods of our galaxy. The idea seemed almost too pretty to be wrong. But people searching for cycles have been fooled before, and we still had to answer the question: How does this cycle of movement lead to periodic perturbations of the Oort Cloud comets?
The idea of a roughly 30 million-year rhythm in geologic events has a long history in the geological literature. In the early 20th century, W.A. Grabau, an expert on sedimentary strata, proposed that tectonic activity and mountain building drove periodic fluctuations in sea level with an approximately 30 million-year cycle. In the 1920s, noted British geologist Arthur Holmes, armed with a few age determinations from radioactive decay, saw a similar 30 million-year cycle in Earth's geologic activity…
If the cycles are real, what could be driving these long-term changes in volcanism, tectonics, sea level, and climate at such regular, if widely spaced, intervals? At first, I thought that the periodic energetic impacts might somehow be affecting deep-seated geological processes. I suggested in a short note in the journal Nature that large impacts might so deeply excavate and fracture the crust — to depths in excess of 10 miles (16 km) — that the sudden release of pressure in the upper mantle would result in large-scale melting. This would lead to the production of massive flood-basalt lavas, which would cover the crater and possibly create a mantle hot spot at the site of the impact. Hot spots could lead to continental breakup, which can cause increased tectonics and changes in ocean-floor spreading rates, and in turn cause global sea levels to fluctuate. Unfortunately, no known terrestrial impact structure has a clear association with volcanism, although some volcanic outpourings on Mars seem to be located along radial and concentric fractures related to large impacts.
The potential key to resolving this geological conundrum may come | [

from outer space. Remember that Randall and Reece suggested that Earth passes through a thin disk of dark matter concentrated along the Milky Way's midplane every 30 million years or so. Astrophysicist Lawrence Krauss and Nobel Prize-winning physicist Frank Wilczek of Harvard University, and independently Katherine Freese, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, proposed that Earth could capture dark matter particles that would accumulate in the planet's core. The number of dark matter particles could grow large enough so that they would undergo mutual annihilation, producing prodigious amounts of heat in Earth's interior.
A 1998 paper in the journal Astroparticle Physics (which I am sure few geologists ever read) provided a potential missing link. Indian astrophysicists Asfar Abbas and Samar Abbas (father and son, respectively) at Utkal University also were interested in dark matter and its interactions with our planet. They calculated the amount of energy released by the annihilation of dark matter captured by Earth during its passage through a dense clump of this material. They found that mutual destruction among the particles could produce an amount of heat 500 times greater than Earth's normal heat flow, and much greater than the estimated power required in Earth's core to generate the planet's magnetic field. Putting together the predicted 30 million-year periodicity in encounters with dark matter with the effects of Earth capturing this unstable matter produces a plausible hypothesis for the origin of regular pulses of geologic activity.
Excess heat from the planet's core can raise the temperature at the base of the mantle. Such a pulse of heat might create a mantle plume, a rising column of hot mantle rock with a broad head and narrow tail. When these rising plumes penetrate Earth's crust, they create hot spots, initiate flood-basalt eruptions, and commonly lead to continental fracturing and the beginning of a new episode of seafloor spreading. The new source of periodic heating by dark matter in our planet's interior could lead to periodic outbreaks of mantle-plume activity and changes in convection patterns in Earth's core and mantle, which could affect global tectonics, volcanism, geomagnetic field reversals, and climate, such as our planet has experienced in the past.
These geologic events could lead to environmental changes that might be enough to cause extinction events on their own. A correlation of some extinctions with times of massive volcanic outpourings of lava supports this view. This new hypothesis links geologic events on Earth with the structure and dynamics of the Milky Way Galaxy.
It is still too early to tell if the ingredients of this hypothesis will withstand further examination and testing. Of course, correlations among geologic events can occur even if they are not part of a periodic pattern, and long-term geological cycles may exist apart from any external cosmic connections. The virtue of the galactic explanation for terrestrial periodicity lies in its universality — because all stars in the galaxy's disk, many of which harbor planets, undergo a similar oscillation about the galactic midplane — and in its linkage of biological and geological evolution on Earth, and perhaps in other solar systems, to the great cycles of our galaxy.
"Dark matter's shadowy effect on Earth": Earth's periodic passage through the galaxy's disk could initiate a series of events that ultimately lead to geological cataclysms and mass extinctions. From Michael Rapino (@mrr1_michael)

As we dig deep, we might spare a thought for Harlow Shapley; he died on this date in 1972. An astronomer known as "the Modern Copernicus," he did important work first at the Mt. Wilson Observatory, and then as head of the Harvard College Observatory. He boldly and correctly proclaimed that the globulars outline the Galaxy, and that the Galaxy is far larger than was generally believed and centered thousands of light years away in the direction of Sagittarius: he discovered the center of our Galaxy, and our position within it.

"Everything is in motion. Everything flows."*…
(Roughly) Daily has looked at the related theories of plate tectonics and continental drift before (e.g., here and here). They are relatively young: proposed in the early twentieth century by Alfred Wegener, they weren't widely accepted until 1960 or so. Now they're fundamental– and allowing scientists to reconstruct the earth's past. To wit, this animation looking at the Earth's tectonic plate movement from 1 ga (geological time for 1 billion years ago) to the present-day (the video starts at time 1,000 ma [1,000 million years ago], and moves at the rate of about 25 million years every second)…
From Earthbyte
Here's a even more ambitious project, looking back 3.3 billion years:
More on plate tectonics and the supercontinents that it formed (and unformed) at Visual Capitalist.
* William Hazlitt
As we buckle up, we might recall that in the very late 50s, the Ohio Art Company– which had been pursuing a pair of business: toys (e.g., windmills and a climbing monkey) and custom metal lithography products for food container and specialty premium markets– found a way to merge the two. It acquired the rights to French electrician André Cassagnes' L'Écran Magique (The Magic Screen)– a drawing toy that allowed users to spin knobs to create line drawings, which could be erased by by turning the device upside down and shaking it. Ohio Art renamed it the Etch A Sketch, and introduced it in this date in 1960.
At its launch, which was near the peak of the Baby Boom, the Etch A Sketch was priced at $2.99 (equivalent to $26 in 2020); the company sold 600,000 units that year … and went on to sell over 100 million units and to earn a place in the National Toy Hall of Fame.

"Behind the hieroglyphic streets there would either be a transcendent meaning, or only the earth"*…
A map from 1893 portrays Earth as square and stationary and warns of Biblical interdiction against the notion of a round Earth flying through space
If you are only just waking up to the twenty-first century, you should know that, according to a growing number of people, much of what you've been taught about our planet is a lie: Earth really is flat. We know this because dozens, if not hundreds, of YouTube videos describe the coverup. We've listened to podcasts—Flat Earth Conspiracy, The Flat Earth Podcast—that parse the minutiae of various flat-Earth models, and the very wonkiness of the discussion indicates that the over-all theory is as sound and valid as any other scientific theory. We know because on a clear, cool day it is sometimes possible, from southwestern Michigan, to see the Chicago skyline, more than fifty miles away—an impossibility were Earth actually curved. We know because, last February, Kyrie Irving, the Boston Celtics point guard, told us so. "The Earth is flat," he said. "It's right in front of our faces. I'm telling you, it's right in front of our faces. They lie to us." We know because, last November, a year and a day after Donald Trump was elected President, more than five hundred people from across this flat Earth paid as much as two hundred and forty-nine dollars each to attend the first-ever Flat Earth Conference, in a suburb of Raleigh, North Carolina…
The unsettling thing about spending two days at a convention of people who believe that Earth is flat isn't the possibility that you, too, might come to accept their world view, although I did worry a little about that. Rather, it's the very real likelihood that, after sitting through hours of presentations on "scientism," lightning angels, and NASA's many conspiracies—the moon-landing hoax | [

Accessibility: Section 508
The Department of Transportation (DOT) is committed to complying with all statutory requirements to ensure that web content is more accessible to people with disabilities. We make a concerted effort to meet the standards of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. (Web "content" generally refers to the information in a web page or web application, including: natural information such as text, images, and sounds code or markup that defines structure, presentation, etc.).
In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology (EIT) accessible to people with disabilities. The law (29 U.S.C. § 794 (d)) applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Under Section 508, agencies must give disabled employees and members of the public access to information that is comparable to access available to others. The United States Access Board discusses the Section 508 law and its responsibility for developing accessibility standards for EIT to incorporate into regulations that govern Federal procurement practices.
Section 508 establishes requirements for electronic and information technology developed, maintained, procured, or used by the Federal government. Section 508 requires Federal electronic and information technology to be accessible to people with disabilities, including employees and members of the public.
An accessible information technology system is one that can be operated in a variety of ways and does not rely on a single sense or ability of the user. For example, a system that provides information only in visual format may not be accessible to people with visual impairments and a system that provides information only in audio format may not be accessible to people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Some individuals with disabilities may need accessibility-related software or peripheral devices in order to use systems. Section 508 requires systems to work with the accessibility-related solutions.
Section 508 applies to a broad variety of electronic and information technology including:
web pages and internet or intranet based services and applications;
software and applications (off-the-shelf and custom developed);
telecommunications including telephone systems, telephones, voice mail and interactive voice response systems, and fax machines;
duplication, printing and copying equipment;
stand-alone stations (or information kiosks);
multimedia presentations including video conferencing, television broadcasts, training media;
support services, and documentation.
The following are a sample of the many ways in which Section 508 standards are applied to DOT and Operating Administration (OA) websites:
Accessibility (508): Acceptable Uses of Flash
DOT webpages are designed to avoid causing the screen to flicker with a frequency greater than 2 HZ and lower than 55 HZ.
Flash format (animation, video) is virtually impossible for screen readers to navigate, and will only be used on our website when necessary. When Flash animation is used, it will not automatically play the media or show the graphic when your page loads—you will be able to start and stop the media or click to access the graphic if you want to view it.
In addition, when providing content in Flash format, DOT will conform to accessibility (Section 508) best practices, such as providing users with a non-Flash (HTML) or accessible Flash version (e.g., with tagging for readability by screen readers).
Accessibility (508): Accommodation
DOT allows the use of an accessibility accommodation with approval where the application of current Section 508 standards is not feasible, not helpful and/or not practical.
General categories and examples of content that may be appropriate for an Accessibility Accommodation include:
Excel computational spread sheets containing program modules and macros developed to perform automated analysis or to draw in data sets from external or legacy databases.
Password-protected sites
Multilingual PDF documents using non-Western characters
Complex images and PDF tables, including static images and those supported and detailed narratives
Complex math, physics, and chemical notations
Large or complex tables, given a waiver based on consideration of:
Importance of the document
Size and nature of intended audience
Expectation that disabled persons would need access

Church-run schools need public financial support, Vatican envoy says
VATICAN CITY – A Vatican official praised church-run schools as valuable components of modern education, saying they deserve public financial support and must not be muzzled on moral issues.
Archbishop Silvano Tomasi, addressing a U.N. meeting in Geneva July 6, said educational systems work best when they include participation by parents and various elements of civil society, including religious organizations.
In order for that to work, he said, "public financial resources must be made available in order to assure fairness" for those promoting alternative educational programs.
In carrying out its educational role, the state "should respect the choices that parents make for their children and avoid attempts at ideological indoctrination," Archbishop Tomasi said. He cited the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which defends the freedom of parents to choose nonpublic schools and ensure the religious and moral education of their children in conformity with their own convictions.
"And this includes the right to make moral judgments on moral issues," the archbishop said.
He said religious organizations are often better positioned to provide education to the most vulnerable children and families, including those in remote or rural areas, those with special needs or drop-outs.
Archbishop Tomasi noted that the Catholic Church has about 200,000 primary and secondary schools located in every continent, with about 58 million students and 3.5 million teachers.
"While protecting their identity, these schools welcome students from every ethnic and religious background and socio-economic class," he said.
Catholic schools teach children how to make "free, reasoned and value-based decisions," the archbishop said.
It's not enough for schools to convey technical information, he added. The goal of education must include formation of the person and transmission of values like personal and social responsibility, a work ethic and a sense of solidarity with others."
Archbishop Tomasi, the Vatican's representative to U.N. agencies in Geneva, was speaking at a session on global education sponsored by the U.N. Economic and Social Council. He noted that although the number of children without access to primary education is dropping, about 68 million children remain out of school.
If current trends hold, he said, the international community will not be able to meet the goal of universal primary education by 2015.
He said educational levels are directly tied to poverty levels. Another key factor is war and civil strife; some 28 million children not attending school live in countries affected by conflict, he said.

I've been asked several times during the campaign about the dispute between the governor and the legislature over using one-time money to reduce the non-residential property tax rate. I offer the following explanation of the issue and the role of the legislature in setting the residential property tax rate.
The property tax is truly unique. It is the only tax for which the local voter authorizes the amount to be raised. We do that when we approve our local municipal and school budgets. The state government adds up all the locally-approved school budgets to determine the total amount statewide voters have authorized. That is what needs to be raised. The role of the legislature is to set the tax rate necessary to get that amount.
To keep the math simple, let's say that in Year One local school budgets statewide add up to a total of $500 million dollars. Using a complex formula, the legislature sets the rate that will yield $500 million. In Year Two, local voters approve a total of $520 million in school spending. The legislature sets the rate necessary to raise that amount. Since the total amount to be raised has gone up, the rate needed to raise that amount will likely also go up. The legislature did not increase the spending, the local voters did.
Local voters determine the amount to be raised; the legislature figures out how to raise it.
Gov. Scott wanted to use one-time money to negate the increased tax on non-residential property. Anyone who has served on a selectboard or a school board knows that using one-time money to pay ongoing expenses is a bad idea.
Here's why. Let's say the property tax rate needs to go up 5 cents from $1.00 to $1.05 in Year One to yield the amount voters approved when they passed their school budgets. Let's also say the administration and legislature agree to use one-time money to cover the increased spending that would have resulted in the 5-cent tax hike. If they do that, it results in no tax increase, but it robs that one-time money fund. Let's say it happens again in Year Two. Voters approve increased school spending that would require a 4-cent increase. The rate would have to go to $1.09 to cover the combined increases of Year 1 and Year 2. Once again the administration and legislature agree to cover it using one-time money. A total of 9 cents is now being covered and the fund with the one-time money has been debited twice, the second amount nearly twice as much as the first.
In Year Three, local school budgets again go up, requiring a 3-cent increase to raise the extra money. The tax rate would now have to be $1.12 to yield that amount. The one-time money is gone. The taxpayer now has to absorb Year One + Year Two + Year Three for a total increase of 12 cents all at once.
Using one-time money to pay for ongoing expenses saves nothing in the long run and diverts money that could be put to better use. Eventually the taxpayer gets hit twice: once when the big increase kicks in and again by not getting the benefit of whatever the one-time money could have been used for.
Let's say you win $20,000 in the lottery. That is one-time money. Unless you are astronomically lucky, you are not likely to win another $20,000 soon. You have some choices. You can have a really good time until the money runs out. Hopefully you'll get $20,000 worth of pleasure.
Economists would advise you to pay off debt. If you apply that $20,000 to a mortgage or a car loan, you'll get more than $20,000 in value through reduced interest payments.
And that is what the legislature wanted to do with the one-time money Gov. Scott tried to apply to reducing the non-residential property tax rate. Instead of using it in a scheme that feels good but saves nothing in the long run, the legislature wanted to apply the money to the large debt we have in our pension funds. And that is what we did. In the budget that finally passed, we applied $36,231,460 to the pension debt. It will save us over $100 million in future interest payments.
As a taxpayer, which do you prefer – saving nothing or saving $100 million?

Our family, like so many others, has been touched by suicide. Our son-in-law Ted Merchant took his own life in 2000. He was an active duty officer in the Coast Guard, which puts him among the 20 veterans who die by suicide every day. We know firsthand the survivors' shock, guilt and recrimination. And a wonderful young man is no longer with us.
We Americans are losing ground. The suicide rate in the U.S has increased 30% sine 1999. In Vermont the rate increase is 48%.
I don't know what is driving the increase, but I do know we must do a better job of identifying and addressing suicide risk.
The VT legislature has nibbled at the edges. This past session we passed bills that would provide paid leave to care for a family member, increased gun safety, increased pay for mental health workers, addressed toxic stress in children, and mandated a review of the states' suicide data.
Real awareness and prevention starts with friends and family. Don't dismiss a friend or loved one as "gloomy" or "moody." Be frank with him/her. Ask direct questions. Be ready to talk. Encourage him or her to seek professional help or even emergency help if it seems a crisis is near.
Be open. There is nothing shameful about suicide or depression. It is a condition any of us can fall prey to.
Be active. Know whom to contact if an issue arises. Support suicide prevention and awareness groups. Learn the symptoms of depression and be willing to lend a hand when you see them.
Let's get the suicide rate on a downward trend!
National suicide hotline: 1-800-273-8255. Available 24/7.
You've just heard from three wonderful women: Helen Head who chairs the committee I serve on and produces great work, our State Treasurer Beth Pearce, who IS a treasure, and Speaker Mitzi Johnson, who presides over the House of Representatives, at times Vermont's oldest Kindergarten class.
If you want examples that in Vermont women can rise to positions of authority and responsibility, just look at these three.
Thanks to them, thanks to Lara, my daughter and campaign manager. Special thanks to Leslie who not only puts up with all this, she actually encourages me. And thanks to all of you for being here today.
I'm asking for your support. First, let me tell you why you should elect me and other Democrats.
Backed blindly by much of his party, we have a governor who looks good, often sounds reasonable, seems to be a nice guy, but with his actions reveals over and over that he is no friend to working Vermonters and everyday people. He demonstrates that with his veto power.
We passed a bill that would hold polluters responsible for the consequences of spreading their toxic wastes. What happened to it?
So much for the good folks of the Bennington Area struggling with PFOA in their water supply.
We passed a bill that raised the minimum wage to $15 by 2024. What happened to that one?
So much for putting more money into working Vermonters' pockets, reducing the costs of social services, and making Vermont more affordable for those with the lowest incomes.
We passed paid family leave. A working family with a sick child, or welcoming a new child to the family or caring for a dying parent should not have to take time off without pay. What happened to that?
We passed a budget with only 14 dissenting votes that decreased the tax rates in all income brackets, saving Vermonters $30 million. Can you tell me what happened to that?
That same budget increased child care assistance so that working families could better afford quality child care. What did Gov. Scott do with that?
And in that budget, we increased the income tax exemption for Social Security benefits, easing the tax burden on retirees.
You know what happened to that.
And most of his fellow Republicans jumped on the veto bandwagon. On the budget, nearly 30 of them reversed the position they had taken just two weeks earlier. They were in favor of the budget before the veto, against it after the veto.
So you have to ask: exactly for whom are the Republicans making the state more affordable? Not the waitstaff in our local restaurants. Not | [

"Redskins Past To Present" is a new series for The Redskins Blog during the offseason that catches up with Redskins alumni – some famous, some forgotten – that have spent time, long and short, in the Redskins organization.
With their time removed from the game, we hope to highlight the many former players and coaches that once wore the burgundy and gold -- we'll talk about their memories, their experiences and what they're up to today, in no particular order, to give a snapshot of their lives as ex-football players.
Dan Ryczek started his nine-year career in the NFL with the Redskins at center in 1971 after being drafted in the 13th round from the Unversity of Virginia. He made his way back to head coach George Allen with the L.A. Rams at the end of the decade before retiring and currently lives in Gaithersburg, Md., working at a global investment company.
When you attended the University of Virginia, were the Redskins the team to root for while you were there?
Yeah I think they were, the Redskins were. We had the Colts up there, too.
I know you grew up in Ohio, but were you or your friends Redskins fans before you got drafted by them in the 13th round?
Yeah I'm from Ohio and I wasn't really a Redskins fan. Probably a Cleveland Browns fan. I was drafted in the 13th Round and that was George Allen's first year of course. I had a couple of knee operations in college and I was All-ACC my senior year and I got the award for the best offensive lineman of the year. And when I went into talk to the Redskins about a contract and so on, I said that and they said, "Well, that doesn't mean anything." They said, "We're going to give $15,000 a year for three years," and I think a $3,000 signing bonus and that was it, take it or leave it.
You were drafted in 1971, but I don't see stats for you until 1973…
Well, this is what happened. I go to training camp not realizing I didn't have a shot. I remember packing my car and driving to Carlisle, Pennsylvania. I go through training camp and somehow I end up being the guy. We have our first exhibition game in San Diego. I think we made like 50 bucks a game. I was the longsnapper. Snapping in the first half, not a problem. We come out the second half and we're receiving the kickoff and I'm in the wedge on the return team. We get the ball, run up field, I make a block. Unfortunately I got my right hand stepped on. So I come off the field and I talk to our trainer, Bubba. He says let's get some ice on it, so I sit down on the bench and I've got a big ice-pack on my hand. Of course the offense goes three and out. They're yelling "Ryczek! Ryczek" and I hop up, put my helmet on and I think the ball's on the 15-yard line. I proceeded to snap it over [punter] Mike Bragg's head through the goal posts and out of the end zone. To make a long story short we lost the game. George [Allen] had a thing about young guys and the story I got was I was cut on the plane coming back [laughing]. I was claimed by another team and then George took me off the waivers and waived me to injured/reserve.
So he did know your future value…
Well I was pretty cheap, too [laughing], but nobody was making a lot of money back then. I got a chance to snap the ball again in preseason in '72 and everything went fine, but then George put me on injured/reserve again. Everybody has injuries, it's a contact sport. Back then you played hurt.
How tough was it to see your team reach the Super Bowl that year without playing?
Well, I was there, I practiced with the team every day, and I did the other team's offense. When we went to L.A. | [

for the Super Bowl, George took me, I was on the sidelines and I was keeping a chart. And then we come back in '73 and it was my job to win or lose and the rest is kind of history.
What did you make of George Allen in those first couple of years?
He was a great coach. We all loved him. He treated us like men, which was different than people were treated back then when you played football. Our practices were very long but we didn't do constant hitting. We did some hitting, but [practices] were so mental in their structure. So we get to the game and the mental mistakes are at a minimum.
I know George Allen traded back for you when he was with the L.A. Rams, too. **
What had happened was when the expansion teams, Tampa and Seattle, came on board, I was picked in the expansion draft by Tampa. I was there for two years. By that time I'm 28 and I'm too old for Tampa because they're rebuilding. Steve Spurrier was our quarterback for one year and I started most of the games when I was there. So George goes out to L.A. and he trades for me because they need a longsnapper. That's how I ended up in Los Angeles…I go out to L.A. my last two years and my last year there – '79 we went to the Super Bowl – a lot of guys got hurt. I was the backup center and I also played guard if I had to. I eventually played three games at guard for us and I had never played guard in my life. I knew the system and the assignments and when everybody came back we ended up going to the Super Bowl.
What was it like playing under George Allen in Los Angeles those years later?
It was so nice going to Los Angeles because No. 1, when you get traded like that, it's nice to be wanted. Somebody really wanted me. I was an older guy at the time but I was his type of age.
Right, his desire to have older player eventually worked out for you…
Exactly. The NFL is a hard place to make it. Every layer of sports is a weeding out process. Everybody's "All-Everything" where they came from and the difference is mental. The mental part of the game is so difficult up there. It is so fast, it's unbelievable.
What's the best piece of advice Allen gave you in terms of the mental game?
Study real hard. Our playbooks were very thick. Study real hard so you don't make any errors -- mental errors or physical errors -- that all the guys had. And play together. There was this thing about "We're against the world, because the world was against us." Most of the guys bought into that which is why he was so successful.
Are you still working today?
Still working. I had a job in the offseason where I was a stock broker. My major in college was economics. After I retired I went to the Philadelphia Stock exchange and started working for a little firm there, just basically taking orders over the phone and running them out to the broker. Then eventually I became one of the brokers out there executing orders and then it progressed to where I was trying to make money as a trader. That ran its course and I eventually started my own firm, mortgaged my house to give me seed money and I started trading there. I came back here [Washington, D.C.] in '85 and I started working for the Fund For Government Investors. With my experience on the floor trading options and stocks I created several mutual funds publically traded for investors. And then I started working for Loomis Sayles in 1993. My duties have evolved over the years and now I service about 80-100 accounts. I'm the guy that goes in there and talks to the board.
Living in the area, are you still connected with the team pretty well?
Oh yeah. Very involved in the alumni. When they have charity events around here I definitely make myself available. It's a great area. I've been here since 1971 so it's kind of neat. This is my home now. I'm very lucky. I was the right place, right time. I've got nine years towards my pension in the NFL and it was unbelievable.

EP #90 - Startup Of The Week: Relai
1:07 - Bitcoin and entrepreneurship
8:57 - Biggest milestones so far
15:53 - Having a hard time with fundraising
About Julian and Relai:
Julian Liniger is the co-founder and CEO of Relai, a startup aiming to empower everyone to invest in Bitcoin. Julian was an early crypto currency aficionado and the go-to person for his friends for anything crypto-related. This made him realize that there was no easy way for the "average Joe" to purchase Bitcoin - and that's how Relai was born. He and his co-founder, Adem Bilican, went from 0 lines of code in April to launching the first version of their app on July 1st of this year. Relai is looking to raise CHF 200k in order to scale their product and make it more user friendly.

During the second quarter of 2018 there was a significant increase in the volume of lending to companies and self-employed persons in Germany, in particular in the manufacturing industry and in the real estate sector. This increase related mainly to short- and medium-term loans, but less to long-term loans, as companies steadily augmented their liquidity cushions. In the third quarter of 2018, however, there was a downturn in economic performance in Germany, mainly attributable to special developments in the automobile industry. Further, external factors such as geopolitical tensions and trade conflicts had a negative impact on German exports. Nevertheless, access to finance remained favourable throughout the third quarter of 2018. Bank lending to the domestic non-banking sector was less dynamic in Q3 than in Q2. On the other hand, the refinancing conditions for credit institutions are no longer seen as positively as before, although the same are still favourable. Furthermore, interest rates for bank loans to non-financial businesses remained close to their historic lows. The net issuance of bonds (Schuldverschreibungen) by non-financial entities increased considerably due to the continuing favourable conditions in bond markets; certain other segments of the market such as export finance still suffer not only from continuing sanctions, but also from the risk of an aggravation of sanctions and related uncertainties.
The acquisition of Monsanto by Bayer, financed by a EUR 51.6 bn loan, was closed in 2018. E.ON successfully completed the syndication of the acquisition financing of EUR 5 bn in connection with the voluntary public takeover offer to the shareholders of innogy SE. German financing was provided for the takeover of USG Corporation by the German competitor Knauf using available cash as well as facilities from Commerzbank and UniCredit. The online trading platform Scout24 was granted a new unsecured syndicated loan of EUR 1 bn by a syndicate led by UniCredit and ABN Amro. The loan served not only the refinancing of existing debt but also the acquisition of the consumer finance platform Finanzcheck.de for a purchase price of EUR 285 mn. The Frankfurt-based creditshelf AG arranged Germany's largest digital SME-financing to date, where EUR 4.75 mn for a buy-out transaction was placed and paid out via the platform in less than two days.
It is common in credit agreements under German law that a company guarantees borrowing of other members of its corporate group. Downstream guarantees, in general, do not cause specific problems. In case of upstream and cross-stream guarantees granted by a limited liability company (GmbH) or a stock corporation (AG) or societas europaea (SE), capital maintenance rules applicable to the respective guarantor must be observed. The same applies for corporate structures where corporations of the relevant types ultimately assume the liability for the relevant guarantee, e.g. in case of a German law GmbH & Co KG (a limited partnership where a limited liability company is the general partner).
These rules do not only apply to guarantees, but also to other forms of security, including sureties (Bürgschaften).
With regard to enforceability of guarantees and other forms of security, including sureties (Bürgschaften), certain restrictions have to be observed in order to avoid possible personal liability of the managers of the respective company which has granted security. Differentiation has to be made with regard to the corporate form of the company.
GmbHs: It used to be standard market practice in Germany to include enforcement limitation language in the documentation for upstream and cross-stream guarantees which limits any enforcement action by a secured borrower to free funds of the limited liability company. Such limitation language is included in the relevant guarantee documentation to protect the managing directors of the company against personal liability which could otherwise be triggered in case an enforcement action would result in the share capital of the company falling below the statutory minimum share capital.
For a long time, it was disputed in German legal literature which point in time should be relevant for assessing whether or not a shortfall of the statutory minimum share capital would occur: the point in time when the guarantee is granted or the point in time when it comes to realisation of the guarantee by way of enforcement. According to recent court decisions of the German Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof | [

– BGH), no liability of the managing director shall be triggered if the manager, after due and diligent assessment of the financial situation of the company, comes to the conclusion that, at the point in time of granting collateral, it can be assumed that the principal debtor will be in a position to repay its borrowing so that the collateral will not have to be realised and no shortfall of the statutory minimum share capital will occur. Although the relevant court decisions do not directly relate to guarantees, this has triggered discussions in the German market regarding the justification and future role of limitation language, and possible adjustments of the existing practice to these new court decisions. It is therefore recommended to seek legal advice to properly address the resulting changes to the legal framework.
GmbH & Co. KG: The explanations above are also true for the general partner of a limited partnership which would ultimately assume the liability for any security granted by the limited partnership.
AG: The capital maintenance rules to be observed in case of an AG are even stricter. In principle, any payments and the granting of any advantages by the company to its shareholders are prohibited (except for the distribution of dividends on the basis of a resolution of the general meeting of the shareholders). Such payments and advantages are only permitted in a limited number of cases, e.g. in case of an existing control and profit transfer agreement or in case the company granting the security has a valid compensation claim against its shareholders.
Societas Europaea (SE): Pursuant to Art. 5 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2157/2001 of 8 October 2001 on the Statute for a European company (SE), the capital of an SE, its maintenance and changes thereto, together with its shares, bonds and other similar securities shall be governed by the provisions which would apply to a public limited liability company with a registered office in the Member State in which the SE is registered. Hence, the rules for German stock corporations apply accordingly on SEs registered in Germany.
Lack of corporate power is generally not an issue. German law does not recognise the concept of "ultra vires" for companies (save for certain specific exceptions). Limitations to the managing director's power to represent the company (e.g. based on articles of association or internal rules of procedure for the management) do, in principle, have no effect in relation to third parties. An exception applies if it is obvious for the third party that the managing director has exceeded their authority to represent the corporation (Evidenz) or if the managing director and the relevant third party have cooperated in a collusive way to the detriment of the company (Kollusion). A further exception applies, at least according to German jurisdiction and legal scholars, to certain legal entities under public law which shall not be in a position to validly enter into legal transactions which go beyond their statutory field of activity.
A guarantor qualifies as a credit institution and hence requires a licence from the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) if it issues guarantees in a commercial manner or in a way which requires a commercial business organisation (§ 31 in conjunction with § 1 para. 1 no. 8 of the Banking Supervisory Act – Kreditwesengesetz, "KWG"). A guarantor shall, however, not qualify as a credit institution if it conducts the relevant transactions only with its parent company, subsidiaries or sister companies (§ 2 para. 1 no. 7 of the KWG). However, the construction of this so-called group privilege is now much stricter than in former years.
Guarantees issued by private companies are not subject to individual government consent requirements. Exceptions may apply to public entities acting as guarantors, in addition to state aid rules applicable on public and publicly-owned entities.
While there is no statutory requirement for a shareholders' resolution or resolution of the supervisory board or other corporate bodies in case of the assumption of guarantees, the articles of association of the respective corporation may require such consent.
No, except for the limitations imposed by the capital maintenance rules under German law (cf. above under questions 2.1 and 2.2).
Under German law, there are generally no exchange controls that would restrict the enforcement of a guarantee.
This is without prejudice to restrictions resulting from existing German or European sanctions legislations, which also affects guarantees.

in principle, all transferable assets are eligible as collateral. Common types of classic security are pledges and transfers and assignments for security purposes in case of movable assets, and mortgages and land charges in case of real property. In addition thereto, there exist certain special types of security rights such as mortgages for aircraft and vessels and other less common types of security, in addition to quasi-security arrangements.
Shares and bank accounts are commonly pledged. Financial institutions usually insist on the use of their own templates for the pledge of accounts held with them. Receivables, claims and intellectual property rights may be assigned as security and the ownership in fixed assets (such as movable property and equipment) is frequently transferred as security. Real property may be encumbered by a mortgage or land charge.
Security over different kinds of assets could be created in the same agreement. However, particularities would need to be observed with respect to each asset class and with respect to each type of security. Furthermore, security over real property requires notarial form, for which reason it would be inefficient to combine this in the same document.
It is more common under German law to create collateral in a separate agreement for each type of security, and furthermore the parties may wish to enter into different documents if third parties are involved.
German law does not recognise the concept of floating charges.
Real property can be encumbered by a land charge (including rent charges) or a mortgage. Land charges are more common because – unlike mortgages – they are independent in their existence from the underlying claim which is secured by them. While a mortgage can only be transferred together with the underlying receivable, a land charge can be created and transferred without the receivable secured by it. Both, mortgages and land charges need to be established in notarised form and registered in the land register to become valid. A land charge can be created without certificate (Buchgrundschuld) or as a certified land charge (Briefgrundschuld) in which case the handover of the certificate to the beneficiary of the land charge is necessary. A land charge or mortgage also covers appurtenances (Zubehör), but attention should be paid to the distinction between immovable and movable assets, e.g. in case of temporary structures.
Ownership of plants, machinery and equipment which are not an essential part of the property can be transferred as security by a simple transfer agreement. Here, special attention should be paid to possible conflicts of different security rights (e.g. conflicts with reservation of title arrangements).
Yes. The common way of creating security over receivables and claims of the debtor is a security assignment which is usually executed in simple written form. The obligor generally does not need to be notified to create a valid assignment, and, according to market practice, many assignments remain undisclosed. However, a notification is required for perfection purposes. Since the obligor may still validly fulfil its obligation by payment to the former creditor (unless the obligor has knowledge of the assignment to the new creditor), it may be advisable to notify the obligor of the assignment in order to mitigate such risk. The relevant receivables to be assigned must be identifiable without doubt, a requirement that requires particular attention in case of future receivables.
Attention should be paid to contractual consent requirements which may apply on the assignment of individual receivables.
The common form to create security over a bank account and cash deposited therein is an account pledge which is generally entered into in simple written form. Most financial institutions insist on the use of their own templates for pledges of accounts held with them. The pledge needs to be notified to the account-holding bank as the obligor. Such notification is a validity requirement.
With regard to shares in companies, a pledge is the most common form of security. A pledge over shares in a German limited liability company (GmbH) requires notarisation. It is generally not necessary to notify the pledge to the GmbH. However, the articles of association of the GmbH may require the prior consent of the company or its shareholders for a share pledge to become effective. The creation of the pledge is governed by the law governing the company, i.e. in case of a German GmbH by German law. It is not possible to agree on foreign law as the applicable law for the creation of the pledge.
A pledge over shares in a stock corporation may be completed without observing specific formalities. However, any share certificates issued for the relevant shares need to be transferred to the pledgee. Generally, the shares are certificated | [

in one global certificate (Globalurkunde) which is deposited with a clearing system. In such case, the (indirect) possession of (parts of) the certificate needs to be transferred, which can be achieved by transferring the respective claim for handover. The creation of the pledge is governed by the law in which the share certificates are situated (lex rei sitae), i.e. in case of a German stock corporation the shares of which are deposited in Germany by German law. It is not possible to agree on foreign law as applicable law for the necessary transfer of ownership in the share certificate. In case of registered shares (Namensaktie) the transfer/pledge is regularly evidenced on the certificate by way of endorsement (Indossament).
Security transfers are generally used in order to create security over inventory or movable property. A security transfer agreement is generally executed in simple written form. A practical challenge is the precise and identifiable description of the assets, in particular with regard to inventory. In such case, the agreement will frequently be either all-inclusive, refer to a certain area on the business premises and state that title to all assets located therein will be transferred, or list individual inventory in an explicit way.
Yes, a company can grant security to secure its own obligations as a borrower under a credit facility as well as its obligations as a guarantor for obligations of other borrowers/guarantors. For limitations, please see questions 2.1 and 2.2.
Where notarisation is required in order to create security (e.g. pledge of shares in a limited liability company (GmbH) or creation of a land charge or mortgage), notary fees are incurred. The amount of the notary fees depends on the value of the encumbered assets and is calculated according to a statutory fee schedule. In addition, registration fees of the land register will be triggered for the registration of a land charge or mortgage. However, German law does not know the concept of stamp duty.
Land charges and mortgages need to be registered in a public register. The land register at the local court of the district where the encumbered real estate is situated will be competent for the registration. Depending on the land register in charge and the complexity of the legal questions to be assessed, the registration procedure might take anything from one or two days to several weeks. In case the encumbered real property itself is not yet registered (e.g. in case of the formation of one or more new plots of land as a result of a split, merger or other alteration of existing plots of land), there may be additional time required to effect a necessary land survey, etc.
With regard to expenses, please see our answer to question 3.9.
No general regulatory or similar consents are required with respect to the creation of security.
With regard to licence requirements applicable on a guarantor that qualifies as a financial institution, and with respect to public or publicly-owned entities, please see the answer to question 2.4.
There are generally no special priority or other concerns with regard to security, if borrowings are granted under a revolving credit facility. Under German law, it is even possible to grant security for future obligations and to extend security interest to future-acquired assets (e.g. a future claim or revolving inventory) as long as they can be identified at the time of the conclusion of the security agreement in a manner that ensures their determinability when acquired.
Regarding notarisation requirements, please see the answers to questions 3.3 and 3.6. Execution under power of attorney is generally possible. However, notarial certificates of representation might be required if the signatories of the power of attorney are not registered in public registers (e.g. in the commercial register). Powers of attorney which shall be used for real estate transactions and for filings with public registers (commercial register, land register) generally need to be executed in notarial form. For notarisations effected in certain foreign countries, the notarial certification must be accompanied by an apostille.
For stock corporations, section 71a para. 1 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) contains a strict prohibition to grant a loan or security to third parties in order to enable such third party to acquire shares in the company. This prohibition does not apply in case financial assistance is granted (i) in the course of the regular business of a credit or financial services institution, (ii) on the basis of an existing control and profit and loss transfer agreement, and (iii) in connection with an employee participation programme. | [

German law does not provide for an explicit prohibition of financial assistance measures for limited liability companies (GmbH). However, the capital maintenance rules applicable to limited liability companies (for details, cf. above under questions 2.1 and 2.2) often result in a similar effect.
For stock corporations, section 71a para. 1 of the German Stock Corporation Act is not directly applicable. However, according to section 71d para. 1 sentence 2 and 4 of the German Stock Corporation Act, the financial assistance rules described above apply accordingly in case a controlled company grants a loan or security to a third party in order to enable such third party to acquire shares in the controlling company.
For limited liability companies, restrictions may result from the capital maintenance rules described above under questions 2.1 and 2.2.
The financial assistance rules for stock corporates as described above do not directly apply in such a scenario. However, for stock corporations as well as limited liability companies restrictions may result from the general capital maintenance rules (cf. questions 2.1 and 2.2 above).
German law generally recognises the role of an agent or trustee, also with regard to the enforcement of security.
Exceptions apply to "accessory" security interest (for details, see the answer to question 5.2).
With regard to certain accessory security rights (which are legally inseparable from the secured claim), it is common practice to create, in addition to the underlying secured claim, a parallel debt, i.e. a second claim for the benefit of the security trustee as abstract acknowledgment of debt in the amount of the current or future payment obligations against the finance parties. In order to avoid risks of double payment, the security trustee must not realise its claim under the abstract acknowledgment of debt to the extent the original secured claim has been fulfilled. The parallel debt structure ensures that certain accessory security rights (e.g. pledges, guarantees) are not terminated by operation of law in case of changes to the lenders of a syndicated loan agreement involving the termination of the initial secured claim while creating a new claim with the acquirer. While the validity of parallel debt structures is generally accepted in German legal literature, it has not yet been confirmed by German courts.
The loan and a guarantee, which by nature are non-accessory, can generally each be transferred by simple assignment agreement. In contrast to a guarantee, a surety (Bürgschaft) (which is of an accessory nature) will automatically transfer upon assignment of the secured loan.
Also, with regard to possible defences of a guarantor under German law, differentiation has to be made between guarantees and sureties. While the most common form is the independent (non-accessory) guarantee, the guarantor has only very limited defences in this case. Further details depend on the type of guarantee (e.g. guarantees on first demand, standard guarantees, etc.) involved and the underlying terms of the individual guarantee. In particular, in case of an independent guarantee, the existence of the main debt is not a condition for the guarantor's obligation to pay. Often, the guarantor is restricted to the objection of abuse of law by the creditor.
In contrast thereto, a surety (Bürge) can principally invoke all defences and objections of the main debtor. The surety can also refuse payment in case the debtor is entitled to challenge the transaction creating its debt and in case the creditor can satisfy its claim by way of set-off against a claim of the debtor. Further, the surety is generally only obliged to pay the creditor if the creditor cannot realise its claim against the debtor. All these defences are subject to a possible waiver by the surety. However, a waiver might be invalid if agreed upon in general terms and conditions because such waiver would contradict the concept of accessoriness and transform the surety into an instrument that is tantamount to an independent, non-accessory guarantee.
In general, there is no requirement under German tax law to deduct or withhold tax from (a) interest payable on loans made to domestic or foreign lenders, or (b) the proceeds of a claim under a guarantee or the proceeds of an enforcement of security, provided the loan has no profit link feature and is not securitised as a fungible debt instrument.
However, interest payments to a foreign lender may be considered German-sourced income, if the loan is directly or indirectly secured by German-situs real property, comparable rights | [

or ships registered in Germany. In such a case, the foreign lender might be under an obligation to file a tax return (at least, where an applicable double taxation agreement also permits Germany to tax such income from interest payments). In such a case, the German tax authorities have the discretion to require the obligor to withhold tax. The tax rate for a corporate taxpayer is 15.825%. Any tax withheld might be credited or refunded upon a tax assessment of the foreign lender.
There are no German tax incentives or other incentives provided to foreign lenders. No taxes apply with respect to their loans, mortgages or other security documents for the purposes of effectiveness or registration.
No. The income of a foreign lender will not become taxable in Germany solely because of a loan to or guarantee and/or generally the grant of security from a company in Germany.
However, the income of a foreign lender, notwithstanding the foregoing, may become taxable in Germany in case the loan is secured by real estate in Germany, comparable rights or ships registered in Germany (see above at question 6.1). This does, in general, not apply in case of the existence of a double taxation agreement between Germany and the country of residence of the foreign lender.
Furthermore, the income of the foreign lender may become taxable in Germany in cases where such income is attributable to the business property of a permanent establishment (including a permanent representative) of such a lender in Germany.
The costs for foreign lenders will generally not be different from the costs incurred by a German lender. For such costs, please see the answer to question 3.9.
There are generally no such adverse consequences under German law.
However, in cross-border transactions, there may be conflicting sanction rules, and German law establishes a prohibition to submit to foreign boycotts.
According to article 3 para. 1 of regulation (EC) no 593/2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Rome I), which is applicable in Germany, a contract shall be governed by the law chosen by the parties. A specific link to a foreign jurisdiction is generally not required in order for the choice of law to be valid. However, in case the only link to a foreign jurisdiction is the law chosen by the parties, mandatory provisions of the jurisdiction to which the case is linked will apply irrespective of the chosen law. Further, the freedom of choice of law may be limited with regard to collateral and the underlying agreements. For example, in rem security is mandatorily governed by the law of the location of the property (lex rei sitae).
Apart from the aforementioned limitations, German courts will recognise foreign law chosen by the parties for the contract and enforce the respective provisions.
With regard to English courts (as well as courts of other EU Member States), the recognition of judgments is governed by regulation (EU) no 1215/2012 on jurisdiction and recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters. According to article 36 of such regulation, a judgment given in a Member State shall be recognised in the other Member State without any special procedure being required. However, the party who wishes to invoke a judgment given in one Member State in another Member State needs to produce a copy of the judgment which satisfies the conditions necessary to establish its authenticity as well as a certificate to be issued pursuant to article 53 of the regulation containing certain information with regard to the court proceedings. In addition, the court may require the party to provide a translation of the certificate or the judgment. Upon application of a party, the recognition of a judgment may be denied in certain cases, e.g. in case of an evident breach of the German ordre public (cf. article 45 of the regulation).
With regard to New York courts (as well as courts of non-EU Member States), the recognition of judgments would be governed by the provisions of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO). Such judgments will generally be recognised, subject to limited exceptions, e.g. if the foreign judgment violates the German ordre public (cf. section 328 ZPO).
It is difficult to predict how long it would take for a foreign lender to obtain and enforce a judgment or to enforce a German judgment in Germany since the timing will be influenced by different factors, such as the workload of the court, whether the defendant might introduce even unjustified defences, and the complexity | [

of the case. In case a judgment by default can be obtained, the proceedings may only take a couple of weeks. In case of ordinary court or enforcement proceedings, the duration of the proceedings will depend on the individual circumstances of the case, and in particular on the type of defences brought forward by the defendant.
Pledged security is generally sold in a public auction which is a formal proceeding and requires prior notification of the owner of the pledged security at least one month before the public auction shall take place. If the asset has a market price, pledged security can be enforced by way of a private sale at the choice of the pledgee. Banks prefer private sales, as they usually lead to better results and are less formalistic.
Land charges and mortgages are enforced by way of a public auction or forced administration in formal proceedings organised and conducted by a special enforcement court. However, the parties may agree on alternative forms of enforcement (e.g., private sale) in order to simplify proceedings and realise better results.
Assigned receivables against third parties are generally realised by collecting them from the debtor, which does not entail specific formalities.
Regulatory consents are generally not required in connection with the enforcement of security except for the providers of debt collection services which need to be registered according to the German Legal Services Act (Rechtsdienstleistungsgesetz), which is only possible if certain requirements are met.
In general, no such restrictions apply to foreign lenders. However, lenders from countries other than EU Member States or Member States of the Hague Convention of 1 March 1954 on Civil Procedure might be obliged to provide collateral for court costs.
After filing for insolvency, but before opening actual insolvency proceedings the court may prohibit enforcement measures against the debtor (except for security over real estate).
After the opening of insolvency proceedings, individual enforcement measures are prohibited. However, a secured creditor generally has a right to preferential treatment, which must be asserted against the insolvency administrator. However, certain forms of security can only be enforced by the insolvency administrator (e.g., movables in the possession of the insolvency administrator, receivables).
According to section 1061 of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO), the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards in Germany is governed by the New York Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, dated 10 June 1958. On that basis, foreign arbitral awards will generally be recognised and enforced without re-examination of the merits of the case. Certain exceptions apply, as set out in the New York Convention.
Security granted by a debtor that falls into bankruptcy may be affected by the debtor's insolvency. In insolvency proceedings over the assets of a debtor, secured creditors will be satisfied with priority (Absonderung). Unsecured creditors will be satisfied on a pro rata basis from the remaining assets once the secured creditors have been satisfied. Shareholders of the debtor rank last in the satisfaction chain. Furthermore, the insolvency administrator may challenge certain transactions of the insolvent debtor which occurred during certain periods prior to the insolvency and which impair the position of other creditors.
Security granted by third parties is generally not affected by an insolvency of the principal debtor.
The insolvency administrator may challenge certain transactions of the insolvent debtor which occurred during certain clawback periods prior to the opening of insolvency proceedings. Relevant clawback periods vary from one month to 10 years prior to the insolvency proceedings and depend on the nature of the relevant legal action (e.g. 10 years in case the action was taken with intent to the detriment of other creditors).
With regard to tax debts, differentiation has to be made whether the relevant tax triggering event has occurred prior to the opening of insolvency proceedings (in which case no preferential payment of such debt will be made) or whether such event occurred after the opening of insolvency proceedings, e.g. by an action taken by the insolvency administrator (in which case such debt has to be satisfied with priority from the insolvency estate).
The same applies, in principle, to employee's claims: claims which result from periods prior to the opening of insolvency proceedings will be treated as non-priority insol | [

vency claims, whereas claims which result from the continuation of the employment relationship after the opening of insolvency proceedings will be satisfied with priority. In addition, employees of the insolvent debtor may be entitled to insolvency payments (Insolvenzgeld) to be paid by the Employment Agency on non-satisfied employment claims for a period up to three months prior to the opening of insolvency proceedings.
Under German law, certain public entities (e.g. the federal states, municipalities) are excluded from insolvency proceedings. Furthermore, financial institutions are subject to special rules for insolvency and winding-up proceedings under European law.
With regard to the collection of receivables, creditors may engage debt collection agencies (Inkassounternehmen) which need to be registered under the German Legal Services Act (cf. the answer to question 7.4 above). Apart from that, creditors usually rely on court proceedings to seize the assets of a company in an enforcement. Private seizure measures are generally not permitted. Further, agreements entered into prior to an event which entitles a pledgee to enforcement and according to which the pledgee shall automatically become an owner of the pledged asset if his claim is not fulfilled in time, are null and void (cf. section 1229 of the German Civil Code (BGB)).
According to article 25 of regulation (EU) no 1215/2012 on jurisdiction and recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, a court shall have jurisdiction if the parties contractually agreed on the jurisdiction of such court. Certain requirements (e.g. an agreement in writing or evidenced in writing, no exclusive jurisdiction of another court) need to be fulfilled.
Sovereign immunity may become relevant in legal transactions involving states or state property. Enforcement regarding assets which serve a sovereign purpose is prohibited. However, a waiver of sovereign immunity is possible. To avoid conflicts, such waiver should be made in explicit (written) form.
The German Banking Act (KWG) provides that the extension of loans in a commercial manner, or to an extent that requires a commercially organised business, requires a banking licence issued by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) or a corresponding licence issued by the responsible authority of another EEA Member State. The requirements are the same for German and foreign lenders if the loans are granted in Germany. No distinction is made between banks and non-banks if the extension of loans is made in the aforementioned manner.
Non-compliance with the licensing requirements is a criminal offence under German law and may, in addition, be sanctioned by fines.
No specific licensing or other eligibility requirements apply to an agent under a syndicated facility. However, in case the agent also acts as lender under the facility agreement, the aforementioned licensing requirements apply.
Some particularities under German law become particularly relevant in restructuring situations. Thus, in case fresh money shall be granted in the crisis of a company (by way of a bridge loan (Überbrückungskredit) or a restructuring loan (Sanierungskredit)), certain requirements have to be met in order to avoid the lender being held liable for delaying insolvency proceedings of the company. Further, a lender (or its managers) who has significant influence on the business decisions of the borrower in the crisis of the borrower might qualify as de facto managing director of the borrower and incur liability in this regard. Details with regard to the granting of loans in the crisis of the company as well as with regard to the concept of a de facto managing director are not always clear and consistent, so that legal advice should be searched when it comes to such a situation. Finally, shareholders should be aware of the fact that shareholder loans are subordinated to all other claims of creditors of the borrower in insolvency proceedings of the borrower as a matter of statutory law.
Another particularity under German law and a unique type of borrowing used in the German market is a Schuldscheindarlehen. In such case, the loan is traded in the form of a promissory note setting out the terms and conditions of the debt. A Schuldscheindarlehen might be advantageous for the borrower as it can enlarge the | [

A Chair for My Mother, by Vera B. Williams
A Chair for My Mother, by Vera B. Williams, is told from the perspective of a little girl who is helping her mother save to buy a comfortable chair for their home. The year before, their family (the girl, her mother and grandmother) lost everything in a house fire. She explains that the community and the rest of their family came together to outfit their new home with their old furniture. The little family is very grateful, but they're still saving every coin in a huge jar towards a new chair. That way Grandma will have somewhere comfortable to sit during the day, and Mother will have somewhere to rest after working at the diner all day. The three save together all year to make the precious purchase, and when the big day finally arrives, they can't even wait for the chair to be delivered, making arrangements of their own to bring it home right away.
Run Like a Mother
A special book review for Mother's Day. Brianna and Ariel discuss a book just for moms. Not exactly a parenting book, so much as a book for parents. That will make them better parents.

Summary of Run Like a Mother: How to Get Moving-- and Not Lose Your Family, Job, or Sanity, by Dimity McDowell and Sarah Bowen Shea
For May, the month of Mother's Day, we decided to read a special sort of parenting book. Run Like a Mother, by Dimity McDowell and Sarah Bowen Shea, is a book for moms. In it, McDowell and Shea have a conversation with each other and the reader about what it takes to be a mother/runner. They detail their own struggles and triumphs with staying active after having kids, and offer readers solid advice on everything from just finding the time to preventing and rehabbing injuries (whether said injuries were brought on by running trails or slipping on toys). They cover selecting the right footwear, embarrassing playlists, setting reasonable goals, and how to stay relatively safe and comfortable on a run.

Strong Is the New Pretty, by Kate T. Parker
Strong is the New Pretty is a collection of photos captured and compiled by photographer Kate T. Parker. While photographing her own girls and their friends, she noticed that the most beautiful pictures captured them when they were being most themselves. These moments could occur during a moment of quiet reflection, intense competition, or any time in between. Parker set out to capture girls of all ages and backgrounds doing what they do best: being truly themselves. The result is a massive collection of stunning portraits of various girls laughing, playing, winning, and learning. Parker's own girls, Ella and Alice, make many appearances within these pages, and it's fun picking them out. Accompanying every photo is a brief quote from its subject, reflecting on what strength means to them, explaining what they were thinking in the moment, or telling a bit of their story. Parker captured the girls' images, but the stories within this compilation are all theirs.

Generating Income with Monthly Dividends
Published Mon, 4 June 2012 10:00 CET by DividendYields.org
Among dividend-paying stocks, there is a small group of companies, real estate trusts (REITs), or master limited partnerships (MLPs)/income trusts that pay dividends or make distributions on a monthly basis. This form of dividend distribution can be advantageous for some investors, especially retirees, as it helps them align better their monthly income flows with monthly expenses such as rent, mortgage, or regular bills. Dividend payments on a monthly basis also allow for monthly dividend reinvestments, which increases the compounding frequency and thus the growth in investor's income streams. However, the pool of companies, REITs, and MLPs paying dividends or making cash distributions monthly is very limited. It is confined to a small number of business entities that operate in a few industries, such as real estate, energy, or financial services.
Investors should carefully structure their income portfolios in a way that maximizes potential total returns with minimal acceptable risk. Hence, investors should not sacrifice lower risk vis-à-vis diversification for a high yield. While making sure they limit an exposure to any particular industry, investors should buy shares in those companies, REITs, or MLPs that pay dependable dividends/distributions that increase over time.
Here's a list of some monthly dividend paying stocks:
Armour Residential REIT is a mortgage REIT (mREIT) that buys residential mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies or U.S. government sponsored entities such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The mREIT pays an exceptionally high dividend yield of 17.3%. However, this REIT has lowered its cash distributions in recent years, including this year. The REIT has a very high payout ratio, though it has been able to sustain cash distributions by raising capital through equity financing, taking advantage of a favorable market climate as its units trade at a small premium to net asset value (NAV).
Enerplus Corporation is an income-oriented investment trust operating as an independent oil and gas producer with assets in Canada and the United States. The trust pays a dividend yield of 15.6%. The company has been cutting dividends, although its yield remains high. One of the reasons for such a high yield is a plunge in the corporation's stock (unit) price. The trust has lost about 47.2% of its value from the beginning of the year alone. Its large exposure to low natural gas prices and high debt load amid elevated capital expenses threatens the sustainability of its cash distribution.
Pengrowth Energy Corporation is an intermediate Canadian producer of oil and natural gas. It started as a "pension (trust) fund investment" in the oil- and gas-producing assets for income. The company currently pays a dividend yield of 12.0% with a high payout ratio of 370% of trailing-twelve-month earnings. The company's free cash flow has shrunk and low gas prices indicate that its earnings will continue to be under pressure. Therefore, some market observers question the sustainability of the corporation's cash distributions at the current level. The yield has also swelled due to a large year-to-date decline in the company's stock price.
Prospect Capital Corporation is a private equity business development company (BDC) "specializing in late venture, middle market, mature, mezzanine finance, buyouts, recapitalizations, growth capital, development, and bridge transactions." The firm pays a dividend yield of 11.4% on a payout ratio of 73%. The company has reduced the level of dividends since five years ago, but its prospects have improved recently. Interestingly, the yield remains elevated despite a run up in the stock price of 13.6% from the beginning of the year. It should be noted, however, that the company's earnings are very volatile, which can have an effect on the dividend payouts.
Permian Basin Royalty Trust is a U.S.-based oil and natural gas royalty trust. It pays variable-rate monthly cash distribution with a yield of 9.7% based on the current stock price. The trust | [

William Tracey.
R. Whitson & Sons. August 10, 1874.
A Fatal Accident.
A Distressing accident, which terminated fatally, occurred on Saturday afternoon lit about 5 o'clock to a mau of the name of Tracey, in the employ of Messrs. Whitson and Son, brewers. It appears that the unfortunate man was driving in from Onehungs in a spring cart with two empty barrels. Another man named William Currie accompanied him. The horse was proceeding at an ordinary pace. While descending Upper Queen-street, Tracey suddenly tell forwards out of the cart. Currie leaned over to catch him while falling, and in this attempt fell himself out of the cart, fortunately without sustaining any hurt. Owing to this he was unable to say whether the wheel of a cart passed over Tracey or not. Tracey immediately lifted up, and conveyed to the hospital, but while on his way there expired. Drs. Stockwell and Dawson were both in attendance, but the unfortunate man never spoke after he fell. An examination of the body showed no outward marks, ho that the cartwheel could not have passed over him. It is supposed that he was suddenly attacked with an apoplectic fit, to which he was subject, having had a similar attack about 12 months ago, when he fell out of a cart, though fortunately without resulting in serious injury. Tracey was a man of sober, temperate habits, and has been in the employ of Messrs. Whitson and Son for a considerable time, and his loss will be much felt. Ha was about 35 years of age, and leaves a wife and three children. An inquest will be held at the Greyhound Hotel at 2 p.m. to-day. During Saturday evening the body of deceased was brought from the hospital to his late home in Lorne-street, from which place the funeral will take place this afternoon at 3 o'clock.

Tracey— At Napier, on the 8th March, Julia Mary Isabella, the beloved child of John and Sarah Jane Tracey, aged 9 months.
13 August 1877 Otago Daily Times
The' Commissioner of Police received the following telegram dated Oamaru, 12th August :—Thi3 afternoon the body of, a woman named Louisa Tracey was found in the waterhole at the foot of the steep embankment in Itchen street. From marks on the clay of the embankment it appears she slipped down a height of-about 30ft. She was seen the worse of liquor at 11 o'clock last night, and from where she was so seen to where she was to sleep she had to pass the waterhole. There are no marks of violence on the body."
Oamaru, August 13th. Yesterday (Sunday) morning three boys playing at the edge of the pool of stagnant water adjoining the north side of Itchen street, opposite Dr Garland's, found the body of a woman in the water, which; haying been, removed by the Police, was afterwards identified as that of a woman named Tracey the wife of Thomas Tracey. There is a; steep Bank from the street to the pool at the spot where the body was found and at the inquest, which was held today, it .was proved that the deceased left a cottage adjoining late on Saturday evening to return to her own home, and it is surmised that the night being dark; she must have missed her way and fallen over the bank, and so met with her death.

Christchurch...It is with sincere regret that I have to intimate to your readers the illness of a Mr Francis Tracey, who at one time was resident in Lawrence, and was connected with the Roman Catholic Church there. A number of your readers will be sorry to hear that he has been ill for over three months, and is now dangerously so. I am sure it is the heart-felt wish of all that he may soon recover, although there are now very little hopes. I trust I will have better news next time I write.

21 October 1887 New Zealand Tablet
The funeral of Mr. F. J. Tracey, which took place last week in Christchurch, was remarkable for the attendance at it of the members of the Bicycle Club to which the deceased had belonged. A procession of cyclists leading their machines followed the cortege to the New Brighton cemetery, where the Rev. Father O'Hallahan officiated. The event is regarded as a gratifying proof of the spirit of good fellowship prevailing among the wheelmen, as well as a striking testimony to the respect in which their late comrade had been held by them.

, England, aged 63 years (mother of Mrs C. Ryan, Blenheim). R.I. P.
Obituary.— Still another death has to be recorded, making we are afraid to say how many for the week. On this occasion there was not the suddenness that has characterised some of the recent losses, the lady, Mrs Tracey, mother of Mrs C. Ryan, having been an invalid for some time. Though confined to her house considerably, she was well known and highly respected, and the many friends of Mr and Mrs Ryan will sympathise with them m the loss sustained. The funeral takes place to-morrow morning.

Death Of "Daddy" Tracey.
At 5 o'clook this morning an old and familiar face passed away peacefully at the unusually ripe, age of 93 years— William Tracey, better known as "Daddy." Born in the second year of the present century in Roscrea, Ireland, he lived there for 34[?] years, going over to London where he was engaged as a coal porter and wharfinger for 29 years. At the age of 63 he landed in the colonies in 1865, "taking up his home in Wanganui at the corner of Harrison and Plymouth Streets, where he has lived up to the time of his death. Lately, his friends have been much concerned respecting the tenement he inhabited, fearing lest the old building would fall over his cart, but contrary to expectations it has survived him. Though repeated offers were made to take "Daddy" into families, his friends' efforts were unavailing,- the old man stating that he . would not leave the old house until they carried him out dead; In order to humour the old man's dearest wish, the owner' of the section, Mr S. Nicholl, has allowed him to occupy the premises rent free for the ' past six or seven years sooner than disturb "Daddy" who had all an Irishmans love for his heartstone, and wanted to die where he had lived for so long. For the last 12 years the deceased has been incapacited from active duties, and during the last six years he has been practically laid up. He was visited by Mr William Kennedy and others yesterday, and seemed so hale and cheerful as usual, and was conscious up to the time of his death. His last words ware to the old lady who has been attending to his wants— "Cover me now — pull the clothes over me. It will be the last time I'll ask you." From these remarks it would appear that Daddy " was conscious of the end approaching. His diet for the past 12 yean nag been very plain, consisting of but one meal a day— potatoes and milk and now and then a little meat— with a cup of tea in the morning and a glass of milk in the evening. Very little in the way of liquor has passed his lips during that period, though for a great number of years previously with his cart and horse and the old dog , on his way home he called regularly at the old "Anchor" Hotel, now the "Commercial" for his glass. "Daddy" has outlived most of his sons and daughters though we believe he has a daughter alive in Auckland. He has five grandsons and a grand-daughter in Wanganui|, and | [

a number of grand and great grand children and in other parts of the colony. Up to the time that the infirmities of old age kept him a prisoner, tbere was no more familiar figure in Wanganui than "Daddy"; and it is said that he has followed more funerals during his lifetime than any other two persons put together. It was not an unusual sight, to see the old man, the only mourner, following perhaps the mortal remains from the hospital of one who died uncared-for and unknown, 'and being too tired to go on foot the long walk to the cemetery, time and again he has been picked up by the driver who bad charge of the vehicle with the coffin, The old man's wish has come at last, he having frequently expressed a desire to be taken home, and Wanganui's second old settler -Mr Sheriff having celebrated his 95th birthday only a day or two ago— has gone the way of all flesh. The funeral is arranged to take place on Thursaay at 8p.m.

Obituary. — A familiar figure will be missed from the Theatre Royal by the death of Mr John Tracey, which took place early this morning. Mr Tracey, who was seventy-six years of age, was taken ill on Sunday, and was removed to the Hospital, where he died as above. He came to Christchurch from London about thirty-four years ago, and during the best part of that time he was connected with the Theatre, where, for many years, he has had charge of the stalls door. Deceased was a widower, and leaves a grown-up son and daughter.

Found Drowned.
The body of an elderly man named Joseph James Tracey was found about 5.30 last evening on the river bank just below Mrs Duncan's, on the Sedgobrook side, by Mr William Symes, of Eastown. The body was lying face downwards, and was close to high water mark, evidently washed up by the incoming tide. The deceased, who lived on the sandhill behind the foundry, waa last seen about 11.15 on Saturday night by a man named William Ryan. The latter met Tracey at the Fountain, and at his request directed him along the Quay as far as Brennan's Hotel. He appeared to have had a little drink, and was evidently a bit mixed. On parting with Ryan, Tracey said he could get along all right now. It is surmised that the unfortunate man must have lost his way, and either wandered on to the reclaimed land or on to the beach the other side of Churton's Creek and fallen into the river, and his body taken up the stream by the strong flood tide of the past few days. The deceased was well known to old residents of Wanganui, and during the last few years had been employed by the Corporation in attending to the rubbish heap. About a fortnight ago he was sued by his wife [Agnes Tracey] for maintenance, but as the plaintiff did not appear to support her claim the information was dismissed. An inquest is proceeding as we go to press, [Since writing the above we are informed by Mr T Tracey. a son of the deceased, that he saw his father on Taupo Quay on Monday afternoon.]

Obituary.
Mr. Michael Tracy.
The death is reported from. Auckland of Mr. Michael Tracy, for many years in business in Wellington, and father of Mr. Timothy Tracy, of Upper Willis Street.
The late Mr. Tracy, who was born in County Clare, Ireland, came to New Zealand fifty-eight years ago by the ship Waimea. He was accompanied by his wife (who died four years ago), his eldest daughter, Mary (Sister Camillas, of the Catholic Orphanage, who died six years ago), and Mr. Timothy Tracy, formerly well known in boxing circles in New Zealand. Upon his arrival in Wellington, Mr. Tracy found business none too brisk in town, so he set up as a bootmaker and repairer at the Upper Hutt, as at that time there was a largo number of men employed on the railway works building the line that was to connect Wellington with the Wairarapa. When that work gave out Mr. Tracy shifted to Wadestown, to cater for the men who were employed in the construction of the line between Wellington and Crofton (now Ngaio) for the Wellington and Manawatu Railway Company. Subsequently he commenced business as a boot salesman in Willis Street, and remained there for some thirty years before shifting into Manners Street. He had been out of business for some years prior to his death.
He leaves five sons, Timothy, Benjamin, Michael, Leo (a Marist Brother), and Patrick.
The remains are being brought to Wellington for interment.
Mrs. N. M. Thomson, of Levin, is a grand-daughter of the late Mr. Tracy.

I wrote the following post last May and didn't post it because I needed to edit it. I still haven't edited, but finally decided it was more important to post that to have it be finished.
"I'm so happy to see all of these activities that you're doing!" When my third friend commented on all the activites I've expressed interest in on Facebook—and assumed I'd actually done them—I knew it was time to follow up.
When a chronic illness blogger goes silent, readers generally assume one of two things happened: the blogger is so sick that they can't keep up or is doing so well that they're out having fun instead of writing. It's rarely that simple or straightforward. Given my recent posts, I think most of you have assumed the latter.
I don't want to worry you. I am doing remarkably well. But that brain fog I attributed to Wellbutrin is actually a side effect of my new treatment. It's a constant low(ish)-level fog that keeps my mind functioning at about 90% all the time. I can do the normal things of life and carry on conversations pretty well. I feel mostly normal, until I sit down to write and it becomes abundantly clear that I'm not all here. After so many years of cognitive dysfunction, I thought I'd figured out how to work around it. I had as long as it followed the pattern I was accustomed to. That brain fog had peaks and valleys. I rarely become as incoherent now as I did in previous years; I also don't have the same high-level of functioning that I used to enjoy in the my clearest moments of previous years.
So I don't write. I think about writing. I try to write. Then I stop because I get so frustrated that I'm not all here. Instead, I spend my time feeding myself (and reading recipes gleefully) and trying to walk five miles a day and practice yoga. Back pain—a result of increased movement in an out-of-shape body—means my schedule now includes weekly visits to a physical therapist and about an hour of special stretches and exercises each day. I actually feel kind of lost right now. "Adrift" is the word that comes to mind.
I'm not sure how to organize my days (and my life) when I can't think well enough to work and don't have migraine looming over me all the time. Well, that's not entirely true. Migraine does loom over me al the time, it's just a smaller shadow than usual. How I respond to my treatment is still fairly unpredictable. While I do have more good hours in a day and even my migraine hours aren't as debilitating as they used to be, I still have down time most days and I never know when it will be.
Everything I wrote in May is still true, though I feel less lost than I did. Unfortunately, beginning in June, I've also had several significant bad migraine spells. The treatment is still mostly working, but it's incredibly finicky and unpredictable. I am working on a post about the treatment and promise to publish it even if it needs a lot of editing!
I have been eagerly awaiting your return and the details of your treatment. I am glad to hear that the headaches have lessened and that you are able to do things you might not have been before, but am sorry to hear the frustrating brain fog persists. Looking forward to your next post.
Thank you for your post! Your story is quite similar mine. Why is it that we finally get a bit less headaches, something I thought would fix everything, but then it actually creates more unexpected issues. I then stress and migraines come back…they are never far away.
You should not be so concerned that your writing is not exactly how you would like it because what you have written, still helps me and probably your other readers. Maybe even yourself.
Sorry to hear about the brain fog, Kerrie, but thanks for posting about it. Brain fog has been a problem for me over the past months also. It's scary stuff and so unpredictable. Have missed your posts.
Thanks for your post. Glad to hear the headaches have lessened but sorry to learn about the brain fog. I'm eager to hear about your current treatment I too am experience brain fog from my current treatment but it has lessened my severe migraines. Hope to hear from you again soon.
Thanks, Bonnie! I've decided brain fog is an OK tradeoff, but it's still frustr | [

Harold Jones enlisted in the Navy in 1944 and served until 1946 on the SS Palawan and Sombrero Key (a tugboat). He did his basic training at Camp Wallace, Texas and he was trained as a singalman in Bainbridge, Maryland. Interviewed by Pattie Johnston on Mar 29, 2006, Jones talked about military experiences in the Second World War. Jones and his twin brother were born of June 14, 1926 in Oxford, Kansas. He graduated from Oxford High School in 1944. He and his brother both enlisted in the Navy but were only together through boot camp. After his service, he used the G. I. Bill to attend Oklahoma A & M (now Oklahoma State) to become a teacher. He had teaching and coaching jobs in several Kansas towns: Dexter, Hoisington, and Hutchinson. He married his wife Lela in December 1949. The 2005 Kansas Legislature passed a bill funding the WWII Veterans Oral History grant program. This transcript is from one of the community institutions receiving grants. The transcript of the interview is presented here; the original video copy of the interview is available through the Watkins Community Museum of History (Lawrence) and through the Kansas State Historical Society.

Interviewer: Today is March the 29th, 2006. Mr. Jones, we're here in your living room, and I appreciate you takin' the time to do this today. We're just gonna have a little chat, and you're going to tell me what happened to you about sixty years ago. Before we go into your war experiences or your service time, if you'd tell me just a little bit about yourself? You said that you were a twin. Where were you and your twin born?
Harold R. Jones: We were born in Oxford, Kansas, June the fourteenth, 1926.

I: Is that your only sibling?
HRJ: No, we had three older brothers and an older sister.
I: What did your father do?
HRJ: My father painted and hung paper.
I: Oh, he was a paper hanger.
HRJ: Right. A good one, too. An excellent one.
I: In those days, when they had to put glue on all the back of it, that was quite a job.
HRJ: Yeah. And I would…. I did plenty of that. I used to paste the paper for him.
I: Did you ever get stuck in any of the paper?
HRJ: Oh, no. No.
I: You said you grew up in Oxford, Kansas?
HRJ: Oxford, Kansas.
I: Tell me again where that is.
HRJ: Well, it's halfway between Winfield and Wellington on highway 160, and about 38 miles south of Wichita.
I: Had your family been there for a while?
HRJ: Oh, yes. A long time.
I: Had they homesteaded out that way?
HRJ: Well, they lived in a small…. It was a small town. My father painted and hung paper.
I: You went to grade school there?
HRJ: Yes. And high school.
I: And high school. You said your mother was a school teacher?
HRJ: Oh, no. No, no.
Lela Jones [wife]: I thought she taught a little while before she got married.
HRJ: Well, yeah, a long time ago, but not very long
Lela Jones: Well, she was a teacher.
HRJ: She was. Yeah.
I: I'm sure with that large a family she was teaching somebody somethin' all the time, wasn't she?
HRJ: Yes, she was. Right. And she was good at it. Very patient | [

I: With that many children, boy, you'd have to cultivate that. You were born in, you said, 1920?
HRJ: 1926.
I: 1926. So you were just a young man when Pearl Harbor happened.
HRJ: That's right.
I: Do you remember Pearl Harbor Day?
HRJ: Oh, yes.
I: What were you doin' that day?
HRJ: Well, let's see. I don't remember the date, but I think that we were in school. Yeah, we were in school.
LJ: It was 1941.
HRJ: 1941. We graduated in '44.
I: So you graduated from high school in 1944?
HRJ: 1944. Right.
LJ: And went immediately into the service.
I: So you were in high school during the war years themselves, too.
HRJ: Right.
I: What did you do? I know Oxford's a small town, but did you have rubber drives and metal drives? What did you do as a high schooler during that time?
HRJ: Well, I was in athletics: football, basketball and track. So that kept me busy. I didn't do much of anything else.
I: When you graduated from high school, and you were eighteen years old, were you and your brother afraid you were going to be drafted? Or were you thinking you were going to be drafted?
HRJ: We joined the Navy.
I: Why did you join the Navy? You got two young Kansas boys….
HRJ: Because we didn't want to go into the Army.
I: Did you have to go into Wichita to be inducted?
HRJ: No, we went to Wellington. It's west of Oxford.
I: What did your mother and daddy think of you goin' into the service?
HRJ: Well, I don't remember all of that. Of course, they were concerned, as all parents were. But we both wanted to join and get into the Navy, so that's what we did. We didn't want to go into the Army.
I: Now, you had older brothers. Had they been in the service already?
HRJ: No, none of them were in the service. No.
I: So you two were the first to go in?
I: I guess that was kind of a shock for your parents at that time.
HRJ: Well, yes. Since we were the babies in the family. Yeah, that was kinda tough for them.
I: It had to have been. When you went in, did you go to Wellington? Did you get to go home, or did you leave straight from Wellington?
HRJ: I don't know what you mean. We were inducted in, and went to Wichita. That's where they…. And then I guess we were…. [To LJ]: What did I tell you about Wellington?
LJ: That's where you went to enlist.
HRJ: Yes. Right.
LJ: She's saying, did you go back home then, or did you go…
HRJ: Home again. No, I went back home. Right. Then they called us later.
I: Where did you take basic training?
HRJ: Bainbridge, Maryland.
I: Had you traveled very much before you'd left home?
I: Did they put you on a train?
HJ: Yes. I got on a train in Winfield, Kansas.
I: Were you and your brother…? Did you get to stay together?
HRJ: Well, for a little while, but not all the time. They separated us after boot camp.
I: So you had to go to boot camp together?
HRJ: Yeah. In Camp Wallace, Texas.
I: That was where they sent you, eh?
HRJ: That's where they sent us. And it was a hundred and two in the shade. Man, it was hot!
I: After basic training in Bainbridge, Maryland, they sent you to Camp Wallace. Why did they send you there? Was it for special training? Were you going to be something different?
HRJ: Well, I went to signalman's school.
I: Now, as a signalman in the Navy, what did you do?
HRJ: Well, I was on the | [

bridge most of the time, and [I] took messages and sent messages, both by semaphore and by light. Uses Morse code, by light.
I: Now, had you done a test that they made you a signalman? Or had you volunteered to do this?
HRJ: No, they just put us in the Signalman's Corps and sent us to camp.
I: "We need you there," huh?
HRJ: Yeah. Which was all right. I enjoyed it. I'm glad that happened.
I: How long were you at Camp Wallace?
HRJ: Oh, just for boot camp, and I don't remember how long that was. Six weeks or so, something like that.
I: Now, you're in the middle of the war; This wasn't at the beginning, so you knew you were going to be sent somewhere. Did you have any idea where you might be sent?
HRJ: No.
I: When did they tell you your next station?
HRJ: I can't remember that. I'm sorry; I can't remember a lot of things.
I: You're doing just great. So you went from Camp Wallace. What was the next place you went to?
LJ: He said Bainbridge first, but he went to Camp Wallace first.
HRJ: I was at Bainbridge first?
LJ: You were?
HRJ: That's what you said, wasn't it?
LJ: No, that's what you said a while ago.
LJ: You went directly to Camp Wallace.
HRJ: That was our basic training. Then I went to Bainbridge, where I took signalman's school.
LJ: The funny part about that is, he thought he wanted to be in the submarines.
I: Why did you want to be in the submarines?
HRJ: Oh, I don't know. I just wanted to be. I thought that would be thrilling. Be interesting.
I: Were you disappointed that you didn't get to go there?
HRJ: Oh, a little, but not bad.
I: Well, being a signalman, that's…. You were gonna be right in the heart of things there, too.
HRJ: Yeah. You're up there on that flag deck. Couldn't hide.
I: No! So you went and took signalman's training there at Bainbridge. And where was the next place…? What was the next step that you did?
HRJ: Camp Wallace, Texas.
I: Well, you went to Camp Wallace and then Bainbridge.
LJ: You went to Camp Wallace first, then to Bainbridge.
HRJ: Camp Wallace first, then to Bainbridge.
I: Then where did you go? Were you sent overseas yet?
HRJ: I don't remember.
LJ: Was that when you went to San Francisco?
HRJ: Yeah, I got on board ship in New York. Went down on around to the Panama Canal, and up to San Francisco.
I: What ship were you assigned to? Do you remember?
HJ: Oh, I don't remember that. I was on the SS Palawan—P-A-L-A-W-A-N.
LJ: Is that the tugboat you were talking about?
HRJ: No. It was big. I was on a tugboat called the Sombrero Key.
I: What were you doin' on that tugboat?
HRJ: Well, I was a signalman. We pulled ships that were damaged from one port to another, or wherever they needed to go.
I: That had to have been kind of interesting.
HRJ: It was. I had to signal from our ship to the ship we were tugging.
I: So you got on board the ship; went through the Panama Canal. Did you go to San Francisco? Or were you sent out to the Pacific from there?
HRJ: I went to…. Well, got on board ship and then went to…. Where? I don't know. I can't remember.
LJ: Well, is this when you went down to Hong Kong? Or China?
HRJ: Shanghai. Shanghai and Hong Kong, China. And Sasebo, Japan. We picked up a liberty ship in Sasebo and towed it all the way back to San Francisco. I think I told you that | [

, didn't I?
I: Not yet, but that's.…
HRJ: That was quite an undertaking. Of course, I was contact with their signalman.
LJ: Well, tell her…. You were the only Navy man on that. What were the other guys?
HRJ: I was…. They were…. They belonged to the Merchant Marines.
I: So the tug was Merchant Marine?
HRJ: Yeah, right.
I: Whenever you were assigned somewhere, then you just waited to see what messages were going to be sent between ships? As the signalman? You got your messages from the bridge?
HRJ: Uh-huh. Right. We had shifts, of course. You didn't…. We traded off. The messages came on board. Sometimes they'd come by radio. You know, you had radio. Used some Morse code.
I: What usually were the kind of messages you sent?
HRJ: Oh, tellin' people where we were going. I don't remember particularly. All kinds of different things that…. They were written-out messages that the captain or the co-captain would bring down to me.
I: I grew up watchin' shows like Victory at Sea, and they always had the signalmen there with the Morse code with the lights or with the standards. Did you read them as they were coming from another ship, and tell them as you got it in?
HRJ: Yeah. You'd read the light, and you'd have a corpsman there, and they'd…. You'd tell them what it was, and they'd write it down as you were reading it.
I: You can see such distances. I didn't realize how far you can see with those lights. At night, you'd have to use the lights, but was there any particular reasons when you'd use the standards as opposed to the light? Did one work better than the other?
HRJ: Well, when you were in close proximity, you just signaled by hand. That was easier.
LJ: You had flags.
HRJ: With flags. Right.
I: Was that hard to learn?
HRJ: No. Over and over, day after day, you'd learn it. A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H. You learned all of 'em.
I: Were some people easier to read than others?
HRJ: Oh, that's true. Some of 'em were more distinct about their signaling than others. Now, you go too fast…. You can signal real fast with flags.
I: Since you joined up in '44 and then sent to the Pacific, were you involved in any of the major battles?
I: None of the major ones?
HRJ: None.
I: Were you there, though, when they were going up into Japan? After the surrender?
HRJ: Yes, right. We went up to Sasebo, Japan.
I: When did you know the war was comin' up to an end? Do you remember how you…?
HRJ: I don't remember that.
I: I wondered, since you were on the bridge, if you were getting some of the information before some of the other guys might have been.
HRJ: Well, they picked it up by radio before we got it on the bridge.
I: So you got to go to Hong Kong?
HRJ: Yes.
I: And to Shanghai?
HRJ: And Sasebo, Japan.
I: What was your impression of the Pacific? You were a landlocked Kansas boy.
HRJ: It was BIG! Man! Yes. You thought you'd never get across [to] where you're goin'. That was interesting. I enjoyed it. I got seasick, like most landlubbers.
I: Did you get past that?
HRJ: Oh, yeah. It didn't take me long to get over that.
I: What was your whole impression of Asia?
HRJ: Oh, I didn't care for it too much. People went ninety miles an hour—it seemed like. Zip, zip, zip, zip, zip. Really fast-going people. And I was not used to that. The worst was that.
I: Did ya eat the food?
HRJ: Oh, not very much. We ate on board.
I: Now we can go here in town and get Chinese food and such, but at that time it had to be [unintelligible].

: Well, we have. Haven't we, Honey? Not much, though.
I: We do that here, and it's not that uncommon. But for you, I bet that was kind of a cultural shock. Did you bring anything home with you? Did you get souvenirs while you were over there?
LJ: You brought your dad a smokin' jacket and your mother a robe.
HRJ: A robe. Red. From Shanghai.
LJ: Real elaborate, both of 'em.
I: Did they use them?
I: What experience did your brother have? You became a signalman; did he become a signalman?
HRJ: I can't remember that. I'm sorry. I think he did, though. I think we both went to signalman school at the same time.
I: Did you get to contact him much during the service at all?
I: Was he in the Pacific?
HRJ: No, he went to the Atlantic, and I went to [the] Pacific. Yeah, we were really separated.
LJ: Well, that was after those Sullivan brothers were all drowned. They wouldn't let 'em serve together.
I: Yeah, which is a wise thing.
HRJ: Well, really, it was. Right. Yeah, that'd be tragic for a family to lose several at the same time.
[The five Sullivan brothers served together on the light cruiser USS Juneau. All five died when a Japanese submarine sank the Juneau on November 13, 1942. The Navy then strictly enforced its prohibition against siblings serving together.]
I: Did your mother and dad write you very often?
HRJ: Oh, yeah. It was hard to get mail, though, when you were going through…a long way.
I: Yeah, how'd it keep up with you? The Navy just kinda scoots all over the place. How did you take rests? When you had downtime—when you could have some time off—what did you do?
HRJ: Read. Yeah, they had…. But if we were not in a seagoing tug, we really didn't do much. Sleep and rest. 'Cause if you're up all night, you needed to rest.
I: When were you assigned…? If the tug was Merchant Marine, that's really a different assignment than bein' on board a regular Navy vessel. Is it because the Merchant Marines don't have signalmen?
HRJ: Oh, sure. Yeah. They assigned me to a Merchant Marine ship. They have their own…. They have signalmen, too, but during the war they assigned military personnel to ships.
I: How long were you on that one? For most of the time?
HRJ: I don't remember. You'll hear that "I don't remember" several times, 'cause my memory is shot.
I: Well, we're gettin' good stuff here, so whatever you remember is great.
HRJ: Oh, I enjoyed my time in the Navy. It was a good experience.
LJ: Did you get homesick?
HRJ: Oh, yes. Sure, I was homesick.
LJ: First time they were away from home.
I: If you're twins, growin' up in a small town, and you're close enough that you wanted to join the service together, and then you get separated, that had to have been tough.
HRJ: That was really a difficult time for Hobart and me. It was really difficult. We were close up until that time.
I: Were you able to write him? I know your parents were writing you, but were you able to communicate or have any letters with him, or anything?
HRJ: Well, we tried to. But, of course, you know, he was goin' this way and I was goin' that way. Why, I think…. [To LJ]: Didn't we meet goin' through the Panama Canal?
LJ: No.
HRJ: No. I keep thinkin' that, but that isn't true.
LJ: No. The only place you got together, I think, is when…. I don't know which place you were. I think you were in the east, and you were on a train coming…. You were going someplace on a train, and you were both on that train. But I don't know where you were going.

I don't remember that, Honey. My memory is shot, you know.
LJ: Well, that was a small thing, you know; it wasn't…. But I just remembered that. That's the only time I can think of after they got going, that they were together.
I: Tell me a little bit about when you picked up the ship and brought it all the way back. That had to have been hard. I mean, you're in the ocean, and towing a big ship like that. That couldn't have been easy.
HRJ: No, it wasn't. But it was done. We took care of it okay.
LJ: The little guys.
I: I think of this little tug…. Did you have to go through Hawaii to come back up to California, or did you go straight into the West Coast?
LJ: You were in the [Hawaiian] Islands, but you didn't get off.
HRJ: No. No
LJ: Honolulu. I bet they went to that place.
HRJ: We went through the Canal Zone, and took that ship all the way back up to the East Coast.
LJ: Yes, I know. But I know you were in Honolulu, because you said you always regretted because you didn't think they would let you off to go in.
I: Bein' on a tug had to have been pretty interesting.
HRJ: It was; it really was. Being the only Navy man was kind of interesting, too.
I: What was the difference between Navy and Merchant Marines?
HRJ: Oh, yes, but they…. They were really…. I don't wanta say this. We were really cordial with each other. Yeah.
I: But it had to have been different. That's not regular service, as such, and so you'd have a whole different mindset, I'm sure.
LJ: If I remember right, he told me that they kinda teased him, because he was so young.
I: Yeah, you were young.
HRJ: Yes, I was.
I: I imagine some of those were pretty old, veteran Merchant Marine guys.
HRJ: Oh my, yes!
I: I bet they had tattoos.
HRJ: Oh, yes! Some of 'em did; some of 'em didn't.
I: You said that you were in Sasebo, Japan. So you were there after the surrender?
HRJ: Yeah. Right.
I: Do you remember much about Japan? Did you get to go and see much of the area?
HRJ: Not really. We didn't. We stayed on board most of the time, but we did go ashore. It was kind of interesting to see the Japanese.
I: How did they treat you?
HRJ: Fine. We never went by ourselves. I think I told you that. We were always two…at least two of us together. I was pleased to be in a foreign country. My first time to do that, and probably…. I knew it was goin' to probably be my last time, and it was.
LJ: How did you feel about being there, knowing that we had bombed them and all that?
HRJ: That was kind of strange. You know, you were the conqueror, and they were the victims. It was kind of a strange feeling. I don't know just how to describe that. You're always on the lookout—always cautious. Never went anywhere by yourself. Always in pairs or groups.
I: You obviously had a feeling for what they'd gone through.
HRJ: Oh, sure. Yeah.
I: Were there any difficulties? It had to have been hard to shift…. You'd been fighting the Japanese. That had been the enemy for five years.
HRJ: I never experienced any fighting—not so ever.
I: But you grew up…. You were a young man, hearing…. There was propaganda. We do it; they do it. It had to have been a little off-putting or difficult. Kind of a disconnect after all of those years, and then, as you said, to come into their country.
HRJ: Yeah, that was a…. I dunno how they explain that feeling. You're going into a country that you had conquered, wondering what the situation was going to be, how people would treat you, how they would accept you. Or if they wouldn't. They did. We didn't have much relationship with them, actually | [

. I wasn't ashore too much. I've always been glad that I'd had that experience.
I: That had to have been somethin' you'd probably have thought you'd never do.
I: What had you planned to do? If the war hadn't have come on, and you and your brother graduated from high school, what did you want to do?
HRJ: We wanted to be teachers—go to college and become a teacher. We always wanted to do that. I wanted to teach industrial arts, and I did.
I: So when the war came, you just kinda put that on hold for a bit, didn't you?
HRJ: Yes, we had to put it on hold. Fortunately, Uncle Sam paid for our education.
I: So when did you know…? You were in Japan, and you were bringin' the tugboat back. When did you know you were going to be discharged?
I: Were you discharged pretty close after the war?
HRJ: Oh, yes…
LJ: '46.
HRJ: '46. Yeah.
I: You said your brother must have gotten discharged before you did.
HRJ: Yeah. He was on the East Coast, and I was on the West Coast.
I: How did you get home? Do you remember? Did they discharge you and give you a train ticket?
HRJ: Yeah. I went home on a train. It was a looong ways. But it was okay. Turned out okay.
I: Well, it's always longer when you've been gone…. You've been gone for a little while from home. No matter quick or how short that trip was going to be, it's going to be too long, wasn't it?
HRJ: Yeah.
I: Did you go home with any other of the boys that came this way, or were you pretty well travelin' by yourself?
HRJ: Well, there were Navy and Marines and Army guys on board the train, but no one from my hometown at that time. We'd stop, and somebody'd get off, and then we'd go on and let a few more off.
I: You weren't the last one to get off, were you?
HRJ: No, no. No.
I: Did you get in to Wichita, or did you get to go into Wellington?
HRJ: No, I went into…. Let's see; where did…?
LJ: I think you said the train stopped at Winfield.
HRJ: Winfield. Yeah. We stopped at Winfield. Yeah.
I: Who picked you up?
HRJ: My father.
I: Were you awful glad to see him?
HRJ: Oh my, yes! Yeah.
I: What was the first thing you wanted to eat when you got home?
HRJ: Oh, I don't remember that.
LJ: Probably fried chicken.
HRJ: Fortunately, I had good food in the Navy. Yes. Yeah.
I: Did you grow, in inches? Did you get heavier while you were in the service, or anything?
HRJ: No, no. I stayed pretty much the same.
I: So when you came home, daddy met you at the train station. I bet you were awful glad to see your mother.
HRJ: Oh my, yes! Right. Yes.
I: I imagine she couldn't wait for that day.
HRJ: That was a nice day—one of the nicest days of my life was coming home.
I: Did you stay home very long? Or did you just kinda stay in Oxford for a little while? You told me that your brother already had you signed up to go to Oklahoma A&M.
[In 1957, Oklahoma A&M was renamed Oklahoma State University.]
I: So did you get to stay home for a little while?
HRJ: Well, just a little while. Then that fall, we went off to school.
I: Now, both of you had wanted to be teachers.
HRJ: Yes. Both were….
LJ: And coaches.
HRJ: And coaches.
I: Well, you'd both been athletes, so that makes sense. Why did you go to Oklahoma A&M?
HRJ: Because he signed us up there.
LJ: Well, tell about the coach there and the coach here. They wanted to play for Hank Iba.

ry (Hank) Iba (1904-1993) coached men's basketball at Oklahoma A&M / Oklahoma State from 1934 to 1970. He led the Aggies to NCAA championships in 1945 and 1946, and was known as one of the toughest coaches in the NCAA.]
HRJ: Hank Iba was the coach at Oklahoma A&M. We wanted to play for him. Didn't get to, but…. Anyway.
I: Did ya try out?
HRJ: Oh, yes. But there was a lot of…. At that time, there was a lot of the veterans were coming home, and some of them were ex-ball players there that were returning to play, and so they really didn't take on new ballplayers.
I: Even though you didn't get to play, did you work with the coach? Did you get to do something with the athletics while you were there?
HRJ: Well, I took coaching classes so I could coach. And sometimes he'd come into the classrooms.
I: So you actually got taught by Mr. Iba?
I: What kind of gentleman was he?
HRJ: Oh, he was a great individual. He was a wonderful man. He really was.
I: You learned a lot from him?
HRJ: Oh yes. Right. I learned a lot watchin' him coach. He was….
LJ: Well, one thing: they tried out for basketball and were practicing and everything, but he wanted them to be there—what? Thanksgiving Day?
HRJ: Yeah. We hadn't been home.
LJ: He wanted to go home. He hadn't been home much. So they parted ways.
I: It had to have been hard. You were close enough to be able to go home for the holidays, and after bein' in the service, that would have been tough.
HRJ: Well, by that time, we knew we weren't gonna be on the team, so we really didn't hurt anything. Didn't cause anything. Well, there were so many returning veterans, that they…. They were gonna get first choice, of course. And should.
I: Describe goin' to school. I've always heard, just from what I've read, that when the veterans came back, that there were a lot of you on campus. Findin' a place to stay was kind of tight. Was it that way in Oklahoma?
I: You and your brother, did you room together?
HRJ: Yes, we roomed together. We stayed in a dormitory—Thatcher Hall. How do I remember that? Thatcher Hall.
LJ: Well, you were there four years.
HRJ: Yeah. Mother Williams. Her name was Williams. It was a great place.
I: You had to have been a little different, too, because you all are comin' back from four years of service. You were with a lot of older guys that had been in the service. The G.I. Bill is gonna be able to send you to school. Do you think that made a difference that these guys had been through an awful lot to go back to school?
HRJ: Well, sometimes they'd share things with you. Of course, a lot of times they didn't want to talk about it, but sometimes they'd share things with you to get it off their mind. That was always a good experience, to learn what they'd been through and understand how they'd come out of it, and so on. And know why they were the way they were.
I: Were most of them pretty strict on what…. They were there to go to school; they were there to get their degree?
HRJ: Your motivation was a lot different then. Just an ordinary person, that hadn't been in the service…. But there were a lot of us come back at the same time, and so…. We shared our experiences, and that helped.
I: It had to have been good for you all to be there together.
HRJ: Yes. Oh my, yes. Right.
I: Was there anything that you can think of [that] being a signalman, being in the service…. Was there something that you think made it better for you? Did you learn better? [Did your experiences] make school more important to you?
HRJ: Doin' what?
I: Did you think that your time in service made being in school more important?

J: Oh, I grew up a lot. Goin' to school was more important to me than it was when I just graduated outta high school. Yeah. Appreciative of being alive. Being able to go to school. Knowing that Uncle Sam was gonna pay for it was good, too.
I: You graduated from Oklahoma A&M four years later. Had you been dating anybody special at that time? Or did you not meet somebody until after you came home?
HRJ: Oh, I had a full-time girlfriend when I was in high school, and we were still close when I came home.
I: Had you been writing during the service?
HRJ: Oh, sure.
I: And so what happened with that young lady?
HRJ: Well, I found out she was goin' out with other guys, and that was it!
LJ: I don't think he dated much, if at all, when he was in the service.
HRJ: No. I didn't.
LJ: He just had…. I don't think he did. At least he didn't say anything to me about it.
I: But not a lot of guys did.
LJ: Not a lot of opportunities, really.
HRJ: No, I was being faithful! Why, I don't know. But I was!
I: Well, you were just doin' what you thought you were supposed to be doin'.
I: So when did you meet?
LJ: Oh, we met in the summer that he was…. He was in college. It would have been his last year. After his junior year, in other words. That summer, we met. This was in Wichita. We were in…. I was in a group with the Methodist church. Young people. We had a hamburger fry out at Yentruoc Lake. I don't suppose you know where that is? Anyway, it's Courtney Davis' place, and spelled "Yentruoc." Anyway, I was on the food committee, and so I was fryin' hamburgers. He was sittin' there watchin' me. That's where we met. That was…. Oh, gosh. Well, it would have been in 1949. Then we got married that December. He came back to get married, and then he went back to school.
I: That means you're still in school! And you're in Wichita! You're in Stillwater. Now, how did this happen?
LJ: Well, I don't know. It just…. For me, it just seemed like he was the right guy. I don't know about him. Anyway, it just worked out that way, and we decided that we wouldn't…. No reason to wait. He would come home on weekends. It worked out all right. A lot of people think, you know, if you get married, boy, you want to be together. But I didn't, and I don't think he felt that way, either. We were apart from people that we were close to, anyway. I was working at Beech Aircraft.
I: What did you [do] during the war years? Were you in school?
LJ: No, I was working at Beech. I went to business college in Oklahoma City. Then I came to Wichita and went to work at Boeing... [corrects herself] Beech. I was there until a year…well, that summer after we got married, which would have been 1950. He was gonna go back…. He was gonna get a job, of course, when he graduated. So we stayed in Wichita until he got his first job.
I: What did you do at Beech?
LJ: I was a secretary.
I: That had to have been interesting during that time period.
LJ: Yes. When I first went out there, I was out in the plant. We had a little office there. Boy, it was noisy. We were on the line—where you'd go out, and the planes were there, sittin'. I was a secretary.
I: Wichita had to have been pretty interesting, with all the aircraft going on….
LJ: Yes. Everything open all night. Of course, I was there…. I went there in '42, in the spring of '42, so I was there all during that. Lots of servicemen, and…. I don't know—just really…. Everything open.
I: Women worked a lot at | [

Beech and at Boeing, because the guys were in the service. Did you see things changing? How did you kinda see the women…? How did they act? That was a big change.
LJ: Well, you know, I was pretty young. I guess we just accepted it. It was there; we had to do it. We needed to do it. It was just something we had to do. Nobody minded. Of course, I think we appreciated the money, because we got paid better there than we did in offices downtown, so that helped. Yeah, the women in our department…. It was the paint department, and they worked in a big room where they were putting [on]—oh, I don't know—something that smelled real bad. Paint, maybe. I can't remember. Anyway, I'd go in there, and…. Well, they had these blowers going, of course, so it wasn't so bad, but it was noisy. It was noisy. I really think that's what started my hearing loss—all that noise.
I: Now we look at this and say, "You can't go in there without the ear covers," but at that time, that's what you did. Did the women…? You had seen Wichita as it was changing a little bit. Did the whole idea of what you could do…? Like you said, it was open all night, because of shift work. That was a little different than what had been happening. Did you feel comfortable with some of those changes?
LJ: Yes. I always felt safe in Wichita. Of course, we didn't really go anyplace by ourselves. It wasn't that we were afraid; it was just that that's what we did. Of course, at that time there were a lot of young men working out there. They weren't going to be drafted, because they were in that…. For a while, anyway. But then they started being drafted. [Corrects herself]: Or joining up, because they didn't want to be drafted. That was a sad time, because a lot of those young men that we knew were leaving. It wasn't that I was involved with anybody special, but they were good friends. Then some of 'em were killed—that kind of thing. A sad time.
I: So you all got married. You stay in Wichita. Now, you said you got your degree in education, and you wanted to be an industrial arts teacher?
I: Where did you get your first school? Where did you start teaching?
HRJ: At Dexter, Kansas. Southeast Kansas.
I: Where is that near?
HRJ: A small high school, southeast of Winfield. Well, Wichita. Winfield is south and east of Wichita, and this…. Dexter was farther east and a little farther south.
I: Like headin' toward Belle Plain?
HRJ: Oh, Belle Plain was south of Wichita, and we were way south of that, even. And east of that.
I: A little place.
LJ: a little farming community.
HRJ: Yes. A small town.
I: Well, you grew up in a little town.
HRJ: Yeah, Oxford was a small town.
LJ: That's why he took it. He thought, "Boy, that's just gonna be perfect, 'cause it'd be like Oxford." And it wasn't.
I: It wasn't? What was different?
HRJ: No. Oh, I don't know. The people were different. Just how different, I can't tell ya that. But they were just different. But that, you know…. Well, that follows. I knew all the people in Oxford.
I: You were used to 'em, too.
HRJ: Yes, right.
I: How long did you stay in Dexter?
HRJ: Ooh, two years.
I: Where did you go after Dexter?
HRJ: I went to Hoisington, west of…. Out west. And enjoyed my stay there. That was a good experience.
LJ: This was junior high. He decided he didn't like high schools.
I: You mentioned that you had been an industrial arts teacher, and you were a coach. What did you like coaching the best?
HRJ: Basketball. That's my favorite. And I coached baseball, which I'd never played. The boys I had taught me everything I had to know, and were…. It turned out real | [

Leo Twiggs: Requiem for Mother Emanuel
Leo Twiggs: Requiem for Mother Emanuel is a short tribute commentary video on the artist's series of paintings on the massacre at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, SC. The film describes the art of Twiggs, but most importantly the grace shown by the church in the aftermath of the attack. The City of Charleston gave Twiggs the entire first floor of the City Gallery for the nine paintings. This short tribute artist commentary film accompanies the paintings in exhibition.

The Orange Story
February 1942. President Roosevelt signs Executive Order 9066, which authorizes the forced "relocation" of 120,000 ethnic Japanese from their homes and into incarceration camps throughout the U.S. Koji Oshima is the proud owner of a small corner grocery store, but he must now abandon everything and report to an assembly center. His belongings, his business – everything must be sold or left behind, except what he can carry in one large duffel bag. Up against a wall, Koji receives only one low-ball offer for his store, which he has no choice but to accept. The lone bright spot during this turmoil is the friendship Koji develops with a precocious nine-year-old girl. On the day of his departure, however, Koji is saddened to learn that even this friendship has been tainted by the larger forces of fear and wartime hysteria.

Joe Barry is well known as a journalist on forestry matters in Ireland and bases his knowledge and experience with his own forest plantations.
Woodland at Larch Hill Stud comprises small numbers of some very old Beech along with a few Scots pine and Larch which were planted in the 1700s when the old estate was originally laid out. These fringe the new woodland, which was planted in 1995 under the Forest Service afforestation scheme. The planting was designed to ensure that the new woodland would benefit the farm, principally by providing shelter while ensuring that it remained a working farm with pasture fringed by woodland.
There are approximately 40 ha of woodland, the majority of being ash and ash/cherry mix with app 4 ha of oak in three sections plus app 6 ha of beech, beech/J.L. intimate mix and beech/oak mix and app 5ha of sycamore. First thinning of the ash took place app 9 years ago with second thinning two years ago and a small amount of further thinning last winter including the sycamore.
Difficulty in finding a market for thinnings prompted the establishment of a wood fuel business www.logonfirewood.ie and the trees provided an ideal setting and shelter for a composting business www.enrich.ie where we take in green material and turn it in to various horticultural products. I am also sending you a species map which is not up to date and does not include all planting but gives a good idea of the general lay out of the majority of the woods and their species mix.
The focus of the ProSilva Open forest day will be on thinning of young broadleaf stands using Close-to-Nature (CTN) principles. We will visit and discuss CTN principles in the pure Ash woodland and the mixed species woodlands. Depending on time we hope to carry out demonstrations on marking thinnings and hopefully, depending on numbers, have marking thinning exercises for the participants on the day.
We are very fortunate to have Dr. Jurij Diaci (ProSilva Slovenia) and Reyer Knoll (ProSilva Netherlands) as the foreign ProSilva experts who will help lead the discussions on the day.
Start: 11am – 4pm. Please remember to bring boots, coats and a packed lunch. A €20 donation on the day is appreciated to cover the expenses of our visiting forestry experts.
Directions: ProSilva Ireland signs will be placed on the way to the farm.
For Satellite navigation users, key in the townland Phepotstown, Co Meath.
Exit the M4 motorway at the sign for Kilcock/Clane.
Follow the Kilcock signs and after the roundabout at the Musgrave/Centra buildings head for Kilcock.
Before entering Kilcock you will see a sign on your left for Trim/Summerhill. Take this road and after a few hundred metres at the roundabout take the second exit signed Larch Hill Gardens.
Larch Hill is exactly 3.2 km from this roundabout -follow the signs for Dunshaughlin or Larch Hill Gardens until you reach entrance with trees and a high hedge and laurels (see sign at this point).
If you reach Kilcock Autos on right you have gone too far!
For others coming from elsewhere, Joe Barry's farm is located on the main Kilcock, Dunshaughlin road, adjoining Larch Hill Gardens which is well signed and whose location can be found on their website.
The AGM of Pro Silva Ireland will be held following the 1st Oct 2011 ProSilva Open forest day at 4.30pm.
PSI is run by a committee of up to 11, of which the longest serving 2 must retire at each AGM. Nominations for vacant positions are welcome & should be submitted, in writing to the Membership Secretary, (Paddy Purser, The Membership Secretary, Pro Silva Ireland, 36 Fitzwilliam Square, Dublin 2, Ireland), or by e-mail to ptr@eircom.net by Friday 30th Sept, 2011. Retiring members are not excluded from running for re-election. The elected committee appoints a chairman, vice chairman, secretary, treasurer & other officers as deemed necessary.
2. Minutes of the previous AGM & matters arising.
4. Election of new committee members.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding venue revealed
We expected nothing less! - by Team New Idea
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will get married at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle next May, it was announced by Buckingham Palace.
The happy couple said they were delighted that their married life would begin in the ancient grounds of the thousand year old castle.
Prince Edward and Sophie wed in the chapel, and the Prince of Wales and Camilla Parker Bowles had a blessing there after their marriage in 2005. The public will be able to meet Meghan this Friday as the couple are going on a walkabout in the English city of Nottingham.
A spokesman said Nottingham was dear to Harry's heart and they would be attending an AIDS event in the city as there was still a stigma attached to the condition which Princess Diana did so much to highlight. The Royal family will be paying for the core of the wedding, which will televised as the couple want the whole world to enjoy the ceremony.
St George's Chapel in Windsor
Meghan will apply to become a British Citizen and retain her US status for the foreseeable future. It seems likely that Meghan will spend Christmas with the Windsors as a spokesman said an update on the arrangements would follow in the next couple of weeks.
The spokesman said Meghan was going to embark on travelling around the UK " as a priority" to learn more about the country which will now be her home. She is going to become patron of the Royal Foundation, an umbrella organisation for William Kate and Harry's charities, and will become involved in royal duties straight after the wedding.
Meghan has met Prince George and Princess Charlotte and is already getting in well with them. No specific date has yet been decided for the wedding.
"The couple would like to thank everyone for their good wishes and are extremely grateful for them" said the spokesman.
The couple, who announced their big news on Monday, sat down for a joint interview where they spilled about how they met (through a mutual friend on a blind date), how Harry proposed, at home (while they were roasting a chicken), when they plan to have children (in the near future!) and how they plan to make sure Diana's presence remains strong.
Starting off, the interviewer asks: 'Can we just start with the proposal and the actual moment of your engagement. When did it happen? How did it happen?'
To which a chuffed Prince Harry replies, 'It happened a few weeks ago, earlier this month, here at our cottage, just a standard typical night for us...'
Meghan interjects, 'Just a cosy night, it was - what were we doing just roasting chicken - '
Harry interrupts, 'Trying to roast a chicken.'
Meghan then finishes, 'Just an amazing surprise, it was so sweet and natural and very romantic. He got on one knee.'
The interview then asks, 'Was it an instant yes from you?
'Yes, as a matter of fact I could barely let you finish proposing, I said - can I say yes now?' Meghan responds.
Prince Harry adds, 'She didn't even let me finish, she said can I say yes, can I say yes and then there were hugs and I had the ring in my finger and I was like can I - can | [

Neruda aoede
Neruda aoede (Hübner 1813) described in Nerëis Hübner, [1806]
Containing group: Neruda
Neruda aoede may be distinguished from its many Müllerian mimics by the parallel rows of yellow spots on the sides of the abdomen. Adult males exhibit the characteristic expansion of the costal part of the hindwing, coated with androconial scales on the dorsal surface.
Early stages: Eggs are white and approximately 0.9 x 0.7 mm (h x w). Females usually place 10 to 200 eggs on growing shoots of the host plant. Mature larvae have a maroon body with white bands, with white scoli and black head. Caterpillars are gregarious (Brown, 1981).
Neruda aoede is distributed in the Amazon Basin. The map below shows an approximate representation of the geographic distribution of this species. The original data used to draw these maps are derived from Brown (1979) which is available at Keith S. Brown Jr. (1979). Ecological Geography and Evolution in Neotropical Forests.

N. aoede occurs from sea level to 1,300 m in deep forests. Usually individuals fly slowly and in the middlestory. Adults roost in small groups at night at 2-10 m above ground (Brown, 1981).
Hostplant: N. aoede larvae feed primarily on plants from the genera Dilkea and Mitostemma (Brown, 1981).

An experimental mindset is a huge asset because it keeps you from being trapped in the mode of doing things as they've always been done. It allows you to think, "There has to be another way." This is not the typical medical approach, so you inject fresh energy into the situation when you approach an issue with an inquiring mind.
An experimental attitude allows you to be curious, to see what happens when you make a particular choice. It opens up possibilities and gives you a chance to learn what works and what doesn't. It's the attitude that has been behind many innovators and inventors, including Thomas Edison.
Recognize that it's a zig-zag path to where you want to be.
In the search for another way, you'll be reading, listening to interviews, and asking questions. As you do that, it will become apparent that there are very few definitive answers about solutions to health issues.
One expert advocates a certain approach, another takes an opposing position that is equally convincing. Both are quoting research that supports their position. How does that make sense?!
Because there isn't just one perfect answer. Each of those contradictory protocols has worked for some people. The main variable in solving your particular issue is your specific symphony of information, as Dr. Kelly Brogan said so eloquently at the beginning of this post.
Your job, as the director of your study of one, is to find what works in your particular case. By judiciously trying things, you can gain information that will help you determine how to proceed. Then it's a case of "rinse and repeat" as you apply your learnings from one stage of the experiment to determine what to do next. In doing so, you'll almost certainly find yourself taking a zig-zag path.
This is not the typical approach In our culture, which is goal-oriented and success-driven. We don't appreciate trial and error. Instead we look for a direct path to the right and perfect solution, and consider ourselves failures when our chosen solution doesn't work the way we expected.
However, the search for the perfect and correct answer can be a handicap because it sometimes prevents any action at all. As psychologist Barry Schwartz found in his research, this occurs because you can never be really sure you've chosen the perfect resolution from among an over-abundance of possibilities. This is true whether you are buying a pair of jeans or trying to figure out how to bring down high blood pressure.
Over the past three years, I've had ample opportunity to observe my process as I worked my way toward wellness. I notice that I'm always alert for clues when I read or listen to expert interviews. I watch for things that stand out, catch my attention, ring bells for me. I make note of those ideas and often end up experimenting with them.
Let me be clear—I'm not implementing every idea that crosses my path. That would be a recipe for disaster, as Aesop pointed out in his cautionary tale of The Man, the Boy, and the Donkey. The old man and his son adopted every suggestion made by people along the road to market, instead of doing what made sense to them. In the end, they unintentionally drowned their donkey, losing something of great value in their lives.
When experimenting judiciously, we consider the inputs from others, including the experts, without blindly following them. All inputs need to be filtered through our own inner knowing to determine the best course of action in any given situation.
Clues can come from many places. Experts are an obvious source. But something might come up in conversation with a friend that unexpectedly catches your attention. Or a relative may mention something about one of your parents that gives you new insight into your current condition.
Your body is also a rich source of feedback and clues. Be alert. What does it seem to be asking for? How does it respond when you try something, whether it's a new supplement, a medication, a different type of exercise, or regular meditation?. What makes it feel worse? …better? Why is there a knot in your stomach whenever your cousin walks into the room? Why do you sleep better when you're on holiday?
These are all rich sources of information that become "grist for the mill," as my grandma used to say.
Clues provide information and ideas. Combining ideas in unusual ways is the hallmark of creativity. And it's the key to finding solutions that work. Psychologist Keith Sawyer studies creativity and innovation in business, but the same principles apply to creating wellness | [

10 Extreme Facts about Mount Everest
Earth's highest mountain above the sea level, Mount Everest and known in Nepali as Sagarmatha, is a peak that many want to climb, but only a few accomplish this feat in their lifetime. Those who have succeeded in climbing the summit have been rewarded with a sense of pride and breath-taking views. In 2013, two Nepali men climbed Mount Everest, then paraglided their way back, and then kayaked for 500 miles in the Indian ocean!
Not many know that the man after whom the mountain is named, Sir George Everest, pronounced his name "Eve-rest," not "Ever-est." Did you know that Nepal promoted Mount Everest as a gay-wedding destination? This mountain has been a source of awe and fear and continues to challenge even the toughest of mountaineers.
There are mind-blowing facts about Mount Everest that are lesser known. Here is a list of extreme facts about Mount Everest that are astounding to read.
1. Apart from the dangers of avalanches and storms, the wind speed is a big hurdle for climbers. A top Mount Everest, it can get as high as 175 miles per hour. A category-five hurricane has wind speeds of 157 miles per hour.
Mount Everest reaches up to the stratosphere, so the climbers face a wind speed that is extreme to bear. On the mountain, an average has a wind speed is 100 miles per hour. The wind can get as high as even 175 miles like it did on February 6, 2004. That is slightly higher than a category-five hurricane like Hurricane Katrina in the United States. Imagine what it would do to the ones attempting to scale the summit!
This is why most people ascend the mountain in the month of May or September. That is during the beginning and end of the season of monsoon in Asia which gives a 10- to 15-day window. These are the only times when the winds slow down drastically reducing one danger out of the many that a climber faces. A plan to climb is carried out only when the speed of the wind is around 35 miles per hour at the summit. The average atmospheric pressure for the summit of the peak is 346mb. (1, 2)
2. An average climber on Mount Everest burns up to 10,000 calories a day which on the summit day will increase to around 20,000 calories.

Another extreme the Mountaineers trying to climb Mount Everest face is the massive burning of calories. On an average, they burn 6,000 to 10,000 calories in a day. and if it is a summit day, it goes as high as 20,000. The higher a climber climbs, the less is their appetite for food. In an area called the "Death Zone," the body deteriorates much faster, and it is impossible to replenish the calories burnt by eating food. The "Death Zone" is a high-altitude area located at a height of more than 26,000 feet where there is not enough oxygen for a human body. More than double the amount of energy is required to perform the most basic tasks, and that results in a high rate of calorie burning and exhausts the body.
At the Base Camp, the food requirements are taken care of by a chef who ensures that the people there get the nutrition and the nourishment they need. Climbers are advised to eat as much as they can to take in more calories, as later on, they will not be able to do so. There are camps after the Base Camp where they are no chefs, so those who get there have to cook for themselves. Cooking at Camp 4, which is located at 26,000 feet, is a task in itself. It is really tiresome to even heat a vessel with water and muster up the energy to perform any activity. At this stage, people consume snacks most of the times. (source)
3. Around 290 people have died while trying to scale the Mount Everest's peak as of 2017. The bodies of more than 200 still remain on the mountain | [

whose colorful clothes and gear have given a part of the mountain the name "Rainbow Valley."

Most of the people who have died trying to scale Mount Everest have died in the "Death Zone." No one knows the exact number of dead bodies that continue to remain on the mountain. But many times, climbers have used the frozen dead bodies of climbers and Sherpas as markers. The bright colors of the gear and clothes worn by these dead climbers stand out in the white snow giving this part of the mountain the name of "Rainbow Valley."
The remains of Tsewang Paljor, an Indian climber who lost his life in the blizzard of 1996, is the most talked about. The day he died, Paljor wore green neon boots so people have given him the nickname of "Green Boots." Many climbers have to pass right by his frozen, dead body that has continued to lie on the mountain for 22 years.
It is impossible for a climber to bring the body of another person all the way back as the descent is as dangerous as the ascent on Mount Everest. This is why approximately 290 people's dead bodies remain on the mountain for decades. (source)
4. The temperature on Mount Everest never rises above freezing even in summers and can drop to -76° F in winters.

Be it any time of the year, the temperature at Mount Everest is always below the freezing point. The temperature averages from -4°F to -31°F but can drop to as low as -76°F. It is warmer from the end of May to the third week of October as the otherwise hurricane-like winds blow gently during this time.
In 2008, a weather station was built at the height of 26,246 feet. This solar-powered weather station is located on the South Col. Generally, freezing temperatures are not a good sign, but for those using the Southeast Ridge Route (most popular route), freezing temperatures means glued ice blocks which reduce their risk drastically as the region is known for dangerous shifting ice blocks that can cause fatal injuries or throw the climbers in the void. In the "Death Zone," the temperatures are so low that if a part of the human body is exposed to the atmosphere, it will result in a frostbite. (1, 2)
5. The altitude of Everest at 29,029 feet is only slightly lower than the approximate 33,000 feet cruising altitude of an aircraft.
The current altitude ofMount Everest at 29,029 feet or 8,848 meters was established by an Indian survey in 1955 and reconfirmed by a Chinese survey in 1975. The altitude is accepted by both China and Nepal. Altitude sickness is a huge problem atop the mountain.
The usual cruising altitude of an aircraft can be around 33,000 to 35,000 feet. Light aircraft stick to only 10,000 feet which is less than half the height of Mount Everest. The commercial aircraft fly at this height as the air is pretty thin which reduces the drag and increases fuel efficiency. The difference between the peak of Everest and the cruising altitude of an aircraft is only around 3,000 feet. (1, 2)
6. The rock at the top of the Mount Everest summit was on the sea floor 450 million years ago. It is a marine limestone that was elevated that high.

Mountains are formed over the period of thousands of years. When deformation happens in the Earth's crust, mountain ranges are formed in linear, elongated belts. Through a process called "orogenesis," mountain ranges are built due to the movements of the tectonic plates. The entire process involves structural deformation, faulting, folding, igneous processes, metamorphism, glaciation, erosion, and sedimentation.
When a vertical movement of the crust of the Earth is caused due to deformation of rocks, it is known as an "uplift." It is this "uplift" that formed Mount Everest and which explains the presence of marine limestone at its top. Convergent plate margins, continental drifts, and rifting also contributed to the | [

formation of the mountain.
John Angus McPhee, an American author and journalist, wrote in his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Annals of the Former World, "When the climbers in 1953 planted their flags on the highest mountain, they set them in snow over the skeletons of creatures that had lived in the warm, clear ocean that India, moving north, blanked out. Possibly as much as twenty thousand feet below the seafloor, the skeletal remains had formed into rock. This one fact is a treatise in itself on the movements of the surface of the Earth. If by some fiat I had to restrict all this writing to one sentence, this is the one I would choose: The summit of Mt. Everest is marine limestone." (1, 2)
7. There is 4G cell phone service available on the mountain. On October 15, 2010, a man named Kenton Cool tweeted for the first time from Summit No. 9.

Huawei and China Mobile, the two cell phone operators, have made 4G LTE TDD service available on Mount Everest. At 5,200 meters above sea level, people can live stream the stunning view from the top using the Internet. They made the technology available by constructing towers at a base station at a high altitude in July 2013. China Mobile had demonstrated the streaming of a live HD video from the spot in the same year.
But before 4G, Nepal's wireless operator, Ncell, installed 3G towers near the base of Mount Everest. An American climber, Eric Larsen, climbed Everest in 2010 and became the first person to tweet from the top. He was at Summit No. 9 when he tweeted, "Everest summit no 9! 1st tweet from the top of the world thanks to a weak 3G signal & the awesome Samsung Galaxy S2 handset." (1, 2)
8. For a person who is standing on the ground, the horizon is at a distance of 4.7 kilometers. For someone at the summit of Mt. Everest, it is at 336 kilometers.

An apparent line that separates the Earth from the sky, the word "horizon" is derived from the Greek word "horizōn kyklos" which means "separating circle." The actual horizon is not visible from many places due to mountains, trees, buildings etc., so the part that intersects the Earth and the sky in such cases is called the "visible horizon." In history, the distance to the visible horizon has been vital for navigation and survival especially at sea. The distance from the visible horizon back then determined a seafarer's maximum range of vision along with their ability for communication through transmissions. Even today, when an aircraft is flown under visual flight rules, the pilot uses the distance from the horizon to the aircraft's nose to control the aircraft under a technique called "altitude flying."
Using the formula of d (km) ≈ 3.57 √ h(m), where d is the distance to horizon, 3.57 is a constant, and h is height above ground level, we get the distance of the peak of Mount Everest from the horizon at 336 kilometers, while at ground level, it is only 4.7 kilometers, ignoring the effect of atmospheric refraction.

9. It is really expensive to climb Mount Everest. The permit to enter the area via Nepal alone costs between $10,000 to $35,000. Equipment and bottled oxygen cost another $10,000, with guide fees that can range from $35,000 to $2,00,000.

Climbing Mount Everest requires an immense amount of training even for those who are athletes or extremely fit. The training alone costs $8,000, and it is vigorous with four to eight hours of strenuous exercise every day. Then comes the cost of buying gear. The gear the climbers buy has to be of the highest quality as cheap gear can cost them their lives on the mountain. As climbers can die of oxygen depletion in the "Death Zone," many carry o | [

Genesis of the Series
PICTURED (L-R): Ben Steel, Michala Banas, Alan Fletcher, Rowena Hutson, Sally McLean and Billy Smedley. Photo by Yanni Dellaportas.
"An honest tale speeds best, being plainly told."
– William Shakespeare, Richard III
Is Shakespeare still relevant? Does he still speak to us? Is he REALLY for everyone?
We are Shakespeare Republic and our answer to all of the above is one simple word – yes.
Yes, yes, YES!
Rowena Hutson as Hamlet from her episode of Shakespeare Republic (Photo: Yanni Dellaportas)
"… polished, beautifully made series from director/producer Sally McLean … a fine use of the platform and, more importantly, a very fine adaptation of the Bard … Shakespeare Republic is put together with grace and wit. An assortment of actors do terrific work making the (non dumbed down) dialogue accessible, prying it open with great care and skill."
Created by Australian actor, Sally McLean in 2015, Shakespeare Republic is an internationally award-winning, female-led and culturally diverse anthology series produced by Incognita Enterprises that celebrates not just the world's greatest playwright, but also his insightful understanding of the big issues of his time. Insights that still hold relevance today and form the basis for a truly diverse, inventive and epic journey into the nature of being human.
"… taking the world by storm, done in an inventive, captivating way … the entire series is astonishingly smart."
– Stareable.com (USA)
WHY DO WE EXIST?
Our manifesto is simple –
Shakespeare Republic's mission is:
TO ENGAGE NEW AUDIENCES with Shakespeare's works through the use of "bite-sized" pieces of text, that reduce the anxiety many feel around attending a full Shakespeare play, thereby introducing new audiences to the work who might not otherwise engage;
TO EDUCATE AND ENTERTAIN MODERN AUDIENCES ABOUT THEIR WORLD using Elizabethan and Jacobean Theatre text; and
CHALLENGE THE CONCEPT OF "TRADITIONAL" SHAKESPEARE, while still remaining true to his original text.
"… incredibly clever and highly addictive …"
– Made In Melbourne Film Festival (Australia)
BUT WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS SERIES?
Built on the premise of taking a selection of Shakespeare texts and making them more accessible to modern audiences by setting each piece in a contemporary situation, while playing with gender and embracing diversity, our first award-winning season in 2015 included Hamlet as Media Advisor to a Government Minister, Juliet as one half of a same-sex couple in a Skype conversation, Phebe as an entitled Gen Y drunk texting, Macbeth as a politician about to metaphorically knife an opponent, a female Hamlet weary from the corporate cut and thrust and a performance of Sonnet 18 as a eulogy.
In 2017 we returned with Season Two with thirteen more episodes with everything from Viola as inner-Melbourne hipster to Jaques as a melancholic barfly to Katherina as an ambitious politician's wife to Henry V as a member of a laser strike team – and everything in-between!
Brainchild of award-winning Director/Producer, Sally McLean, with a highly experienced crew carrying a combined total of over 170 professional credits to their names, Shakespeare Republic has now been officially selected for over 100 international film festivals, nominated over 90 times and won over 40 awards to date, and is an innovative and exciting ride through the works of William Shakespeare, featuring an international cast and a lot of love for the Bard.
"Loving what's going on with gender diversity in recent eps of Shakespeare Republic! Check it out!"
– Dr Kathleen Neal, Centre for Medieval & Renaissance Studies, Monash University Faculty of Arts (Australia)

"… a sophisticated twenty-first century series with its own particularly Australian flavour."
– Sylvia Morris, The Shakespeare Blog, Stratford-upon-Avon (UK)
Using the medium of a digital series, Shakespeare Republic is a journey through the works of William Shakespeare and his fellow Elizabethan and Jacobean playwrights, with the aim of rediscovering, reinvigorating and occasionally re-interpreting these universal observations in a modern setting, through the lens of current events and social issues of our time.
A passion project of lead raconteur, Sally McLean, Shakespeare Republic was born out of her ongoing love affair with all things historical, dramatic and particularly Elizabethan. From her time spent at drama school in London to her thesis on Elizabethan theatre (for which she also spent time watching the building of the new Globe Theatre on Southbank, spending time inside it's walls as history was recreated around her), to her time being mentored by Sir Nigel Hawthorne until his passing in 2001, her work in production with the BBC Music & Arts Department and then her work with the Australian Shakespeare Company over three seasons, she has spent the better part of her adult life discussing, performing and celebrating the Bard.
Michala Banas as "Phoebe" in Season One
With the idea of what Shakespeare Republic could be still forming, Season One ensemble members Michala Banas, Alan Fletcher, Rowena Hutson, Billy Smedley and Ben Steel were then approached via text, email or coffee dates with the question "How do you feel about Shakespeare?". Their answers covered the gamut from "Terrifying!" to "Brilliant!", with a universal, "Yes, please!" as they all jumped on board with complete enthusiasm. Co-Producer, Perri Cummings, herself a passionate enthusiast of Shakespeare and all classical works, willingly joined the fray to assist with bringing the concept to the screen, joining Sally McLean and Billy Smedley to helm the project and so our journey began …
With Season One done and released, lessons learned and new ideas formed, so began preparations for Season Two. Growing from 6 to 13 episodes, once again Written and Directed by Sally McLean, produced by Sally McLean and Billy Smedley, co-produced by Shane Savage and Perri Cummings, Executive Produced by Robina Bamforth with Associate Producer Stephen Wyley, we began upping the scale and production values in a major way! Season One cast Michala Banas, Alan Fletcher, Sally McLean and Billy Smedley were joined by new Republic ensemble members, Stephen Costan, Nadine Garner, Dean Haglund, Christopher Kirby, Tariro Mavondo, Wahibe Moussa, Falon Ryan, Shane Savage and Phoebe Anne Taylor.
Filmed entirely by award-winning cinematographer, Shaun Herbertson on a RED Epic, each Season Two episode is linked to other episodes in the series via visual motifs, cast or locations, to give us a sense of seeing fragments of "one day in the life" of a modern, contemporary world where we all happen to still speak in Shakespeare's language.
Leo Atkin as "Puck" in Season Three
Season Three was created in response to the global pandemic and subsequent lockdowns around the world in 2020. Again taking Shakespeare pieces and characters and setting them firmly in lockdown and self-isolation, the season used a 24 strong cast of actors, based in six cities around the world and explored the human condition during the worst pandemic in a century.
While still working with the text in the same way as before, this new season worked completely differently in how it was filmed. All actors were rehearsed via Zoom video conferencing by Sally McLean from her home studio in Melbourne and filming was also done in the same way – through the internet – with Sally directing the actors in real time via Zoom on their laptops or tablets, while they filmed themselves on their smartphones or cameras.
Post-production was also all done remotely – with the entire season completed without any of the team being physically in the same room at the same time.
The takeaway? Shakespeare speaks to us now just as strongly as he did 400-odd years ago when he first put quill to parchment.

Q: Multiplying and formatting live numbers with javascript I'm very very inexperienced with javascript, and I'm running into a snag that I can't find the answer to.
Here's what I'm working on:
http://www.vibralifeusa.com/slider-test/
Here's what I'm trying to do:
When you drag the slider back and forth I want whatever number is selected by the user (div id "downText") to be multiplied and formatted into the four divs "perYear", "perTwentyFive", "perMonthCoal", "perMonthSolar". Here's the code I wrote to accomplish this:
var a = document.getElementsByClassName('downText')[0].innerHTML;
document.getElementsByClassName('perYear')[0].innerHTML = parseInt(a*18.4);
var a = document.getElementsByClassName('downText')[0].innerHTML;
document.getElementsByClassName('perTwentyFive')[0].innerHTML = parseInt(a*460);
var a = document.getElementsByClassName('downText')[0].innerHTML;
document.getElementsByClassName('perMonthCoal')[0].innerHTML = parseInt(a*1);
var a = document.getElementsByClassName('downText')[0].innerHTML;
document.getElementsByClassName('perMonthSolar')[0].innerHTML = parseInt(a*0.79);
<div class="downText" id="downText"></div>
<div class="perYear" id="perYear"></div>
<div class="perTwentyFive" id="perTwentyFive"></div>
<div class="perMonthCoal" id="perMonthCoal"></div>
<div class="perMonthSolar" id="perMonthSolar"></div>
The first issue is, it only multiplies the number I physically code into the div. (I put 100 into the div manually to make sure it was actually multiplying), it doesn't update that multiplied number as you drag the slider.
The second issue is that I can't get these numbers to format AND multiply at the same time. This is the code I tried adding, but when I do, it stops multiplying the numbers:
var formatter = new Intl.NumberFormat('en-US', {
style: 'currency',
currency: 'USD',
minimumFractionDigits: 0,
});
var amount = document.getElementById('downText').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('perYear').innerHTML = formatter.format(amount);
var amount = document.getElementById('downText').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('perTwentyFive').innerHTML = formatter.format(amount);
var amount = document.getElementById('downText').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('perMonthCoal').innerHTML = formatter.format(amount);
var amount = document.getElementById('downText').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('perMonthSolar').innerHTML = formatter.format(amount);
I know this is really basic stuff, but I'm seriously very inexperienced with javascript and can't figure this out despite working on it for hours, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
A: I'm just taking a stab at this here without testing but I think you're gonna have to run all your calculations within the "dragUpdate" function. Maybe this will do?
function dragUpdate() {
dragVal = Math.round((this.target._gsTransform.x / maxDrag) * 1000);
select('.downText').textContent = select('.upText').textContent = dragVal;
document.getElementById('perYear').innerHTML = parseInt(dragVal * 18.4, 10);
document.getElementById('perTwentyFive').innerHTML = parseInt(dragVal * 460, 10);
document.getElementById('perMonthCoal').innerHTML = parseInt(dragVal * 1, 10);
document.getElementById('perMonthSolar').innerHTML = parseInt(dragVal * 0.79, 10);
TweenMax.to('#display', 1.3, {
x: this.target._gsTransform.x
})
TweenMax.staggerTo(['.upText', '.downText'], 1, {
// x:this.target._gsTransform.x,
cycle: {
attr: [{
x: this.target._gsTransform. | [

A: The bug was introduced because you weren't updating value on on dragUpdate function. I just moved your multiplication logic code in dragUpdate function and it's working.
You have placed the code below and expecting it to update on slider drag.
var xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg",
select = function(s) {
return document.querySelector(s);
},
selectAll = function(s) {
return document.querySelectorAll(s);
},
container = select('.container'),
dragger = select('#dragger'),
dragVal,
maxDrag = 300
//center the container cos it's pretty an' that
TweenMax.set(container, {
position: 'absolute',
top: '0%',
left: '0%',
xPercent: 0,
yPercent: 0
})
TweenMax.set('svg', {
visibility: 'visible'
})
TweenMax.set('#upText', {
alpha: 0,
transformOrigin: '50% 50%'
})
TweenLite.defaultEase = Elastic.easeOut.config(0.4, 0.1);
var tl = new TimelineMax({
paused: true
});
tl.addLabel("blobUp")
.to('#display', 1, {

cy: '-=40',

Three pursuits fuel Mercyhurst student's 'master plan'
Rosie Pregler
Rosie Pregler's mom has this thing about music and kids: play an instrument, sing a song, dance; that was her advice all through childhood. Rosie, the third of the four Pregler children, responded by embracing theater.
Turns out mom's prodding, combined with Rosie's passion for archaeology and public history, combined to create a distinctive career aspiration for the Erie native and Mercyhurst University senior.
A double major in Anthropology/Archaeology and History with a minor in Theater, Rosie is juggling three interests that some have cautioned have little common ground. Well, archaeology and public history, yes; but theater?
According to Rosie, they are all part of her master plan.
At present, she is entering the final stretch of two challenging senior capstone projects – an archaeological study and a public history narrative – both in connection with the Warren County birthplace of Robert H. Jackson. Born in Spring Creek in 1892, Jackson had a storied career in public service. He served as U.S. Solicitor General and U.S. Attorney General before being appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1941. Jackson took a leave from his post on the court to act as Chief U.S. Prosecutor during the Nuremberg Trials of Nazi war criminals following World War II. He died in 1954.
Rosie is the chief student researcher on both projects, begun last summer through an agreement among Mercyhurst's Anthropology/Archaeology program chaired by Dr. Mary Ann Owoc, History program chaired by Dr. Ben Scharff, and the Robert H. Jackson Center. Also endorsing the project is Glendorn Land, the current owners of the property overlooking Spring Creek where Jackson's great-grandfather settled shortly after the American Revolution.
For the archaeological study, Rosie is using her training to map the homestead site, photograph the property, and conduct a pedestrian survey to identify and flag artifacts for further study.
Structurally, all that remains on the property is the foundation of the farmhouse and of the barn. But a well-trained eye can detect clues to past environments, and that's what intrigues Rosie. It was fascinating for example, she said, to see an archaic ceramic piece juxtaposed against a more modern roof tile.
"It gave you a real strong sense of the long history of this property," she said.
Rosie's archaeological investigation is augmented by her public history capstone project in which she is researching the history of the property and collecting oral histories from those who had a connection to it, including one of Robert H. Jackson's grandchildren.
It was clear that generations of this family had a tangible connection to the property, she said. For decades, they came and went if only to camp at the historic site. Even Robert H. Jackson himself couldn't stay away. During his many years in D.C., he would make summer trips back to the family farmstead.
Rosie said she hopes her work can help the Jackson descendants rediscover their connection to the Jackson Farmstead, while sparking an interest in others.
On Saturday, May 11, at 11 a.m., she will have the opportunity to share her research with the public during a presentation at the Spring Creek Fire Hall, 6345 Route PA-426.
Now, circling back to theater and the role it plays in her trio of interests, Rosie said her career goal is to work within a museum, archival collection or historic property venue to produce living history.
"I love history, but I need to live it," she said. "I want to step into the lives of people from the past and share those lives with people today. I feel that requires some level of performance to be authentic, and is best accomplished by having a strong familiarity with the history you are trying to convey."
During her theater career at Mercyhurst, Rosie has both acted and directed. Her favorite role was that of a truly historic figure, Anne Frank, which she played in 2016 on the stage of Taylor Little Theatre.
Rosie's May 11 presentation is free and open to the public. For more information, call 716-483-6646 | [
