It's Nannygate time again in the presidential transition, the time when nominees for high office find themselves preoccupied more with defending small missteps than big policies.
In 1993, President Clinton's successive nominations of Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood for attorney general went down over matters of employing illegal aliens and not paying Social Security taxes. Then retired Adm. Bobby Ray Inman, nominated for Defense secretary, bowed out over what he called a "Nannygate problem" of Social Security taxes.
Back then Linda Chavez said, on the PBS Newshour, that Americans were "upset" about Baird employing an illegal alien. So, it seemed ironic when Chavez, nominee for secretary of Labor, found herself in trouble over a Guatemalan illegal immigrant who had done chores in her house.
Superficially a parallel problem, but actually Chavez's problem was much different. She had been less than forthcoming about the Guatemalan woman with the Bush transition team and, more perilously, with the FBI. Chavez withdrew her nomination on Tuesday, complaining of "the politics of personal destruction." But as former President Nixon and President Clinton might have told her, she was practicing the politics of personal destruction. It was Nixon who said, after the Alger Hiss spy case, that the cover-up is more dangerous than the original act.
No other Bush nominee, as far as is currently known, has a personal problem in the order of Chavez's. But other cabinet nominees have things to explain.
Secretary of State-designate Colin Powell has to explain a fee, reported to be $80,000, from a billionaire Lebanese official for a speech on the Middle East at Tufts University five days before the election, when Powell had already indicated he would join a Bush Cabinet.
And Defense Secretary-designate Donald Rumsfeld is explaining why he responded only with "That's right" and "That's for sure" in a taped conservation in 1971 with President Nixon, who described black Africans as being "basically just out of the trees." Rumsfeld said through a spokesman that he had meant only to acknowledge Nixon's remarks, not to agree with them.
These are the kinds of matters, like membership in segregated country clubs or investments suggesting possible conflict of interest, that more and more often bubble up from the past to becloud the confirmation process.
Such personal issues may serve as distractions from issues of greater substance, such as those facing nominees John Ashcroft for Justice and Gale Norton for Interior. But in a time of intense scrutiny of personal traits and behavior, they are sure to absorb the confirmation committees and the public.

Student bodies at university teaching programs directly affect teachers in the school system, so diversifying the programs will implement a wider variety of teaching methods in the school system. While some may claim that aiming to diversify university student bodies sways the admissions committee’s emphasis on merit and merit-based admission, any institution would be fulfilling its mission of educating successful and impactful individuals by diversifying its programs. The academic merit of incoming teaching students is important to succeed in the program, but it does not guarantee the execution of a beneficial teaching method. This is where diversity comes in; competitive students from different cultural backgrounds will implement more beneficial teaching methods, which is preferable to the public image of the university.
Moreover, students tend to benefit from the presence of teachers from a similar cultural background; it provides a feeling of understanding and safety. Even students from different backgrounds as their teachers can benefit from a diversified teaching style and other approaches to students. According to Enright, “They respond when they are supported by teachers of a like race. It’s not just students of color, though. Research supports that all students, no matter what race, benefit from having teachers of color”. The presence of diverse teaching and student bodies at any school is vital to the success of all students, so universities should be encouraged to diversify their teaching programs.

The walk distance from terminal to labs could be shorter. But some players dont mind that. It would be an issue for me though.
The towers are not in the middle of your design. That results in a harder to defend part of your bunker. That could be an issue. But again, some players dont have issues with tower distance, mainly because of strong active defense.
@o4kapuk Yes, that idea sounds better. The wait time is way too long. And this way we will not see so many players just hunting level 0 cores.
I absolutly love the idea! This looks like a smart feature to engage most players and lure zombies back to the game.
I can't wait to try to find the most efficient tactic to tear down their defenses!
Yes, I saw that, too. First time I noticed is today though.
I think the pixel approach is a very good idea.
That would let us spend money on screeps and thus help the dev team.
A really cool and useful feature. Thank you! I like it!
But I am a bit concerned about the additional space that would bring us. Wars in screeps are almost always triggered by territorial disputes and are declining if there is enough space for everyone to grow.
I have the feeling, that the sharding feature added too much space to screeps, even with the size reduction of shard0.
The world of screeps needs to be crowded for alliances to form and wars to break out. And we do want wars, to keep people interested.
And with the low investment of only a new portal type.

Most women love surprises, so while her wedding anniversary is an expected date, you can still get her an unexpected gift. The nature of the gift will depend on your relationship with her. As her husband or her child, you should know her pretty well, so you’re better placed to get her that gift she’s been dreaming of. If you’re a colleague, sibling, or family friend, you can probably get away with a nice wedding anniversary gift hamper.
You might not know her all that well, but hopefully, you know whether she prefers wine or herbal tea. If she’s open to her tipple, you can’t go wrong with a basket of champagne and chocolate. Find out if she prefers her wine red or white, then maybe you can score extra points. You can also throw in a scented candle. It’s both classy and therapeutic, so it will always be appreciated.
For the coffee lover, select a gift basket that includes chocolate coated coffee beans and a cosy coffee mug. Add cookies, cake, or biscuits to go with that rich chocolatey beverage. If she prefers it, you can substitute the coffee beans with a few packs of her favourite tea.
Another gift idea that always works is something that reminds her of the happy day. While every wedding has an official photographer, guests always take photos and videos on their phones. Look through your gallery and find a good shot to share. If the angle and resolution are good enough, you can have it blown up and framed as a permanent keepsake.
Older couples may enjoy the old-school charm of a traditional photo frame, but if they’re younger, try a modern framing option like fracture direct-on-glass photos. You might even go all out and create a website or social media group with a timeline of their marriage. You can include snippets, congratulatory messages, video clips, and photos crowdsourced from family and friends. Some of these will come from the wedding, while others might be memories of their courtship and shared journey.
For the wife that loves to travel but is too busy with work and family commitments, a free trip makes a lovely gift. It could be a cruise, a camping safari, or a wine tour, depending on her tastes. Just be sure to get her husband involved so that he doesn’t spoil the trip by refusing to go. It would also help to make sure she has a babysitter for the period. You get extra points for offering to do it yourself.
To go with the trip, you could get her a wall-sized world map. This gift is good for couples that frequently travel together, either for work or leisure. It’s perfect for a retired couple that finally has the time and resources to see the world. The map is plain so that every time they visit a new country, they can colour that section on their map, or tack a tiny national flag onto the map.
If the madam is digitally inclined, a good gift is a portable smartphone printer. Think of it as the 21st century’s answer to polaroids. It’s small enough to fit in your hand, works with Apple and Android, prints wirelessly, and can be recharged by USB. If she’s more analogue, then get the memory printed on a cushion instead. It could be a high definition image or a copy of their marriage certificate. This concept also works for quilts, throws, or blankets.
For the playful wife with a sweet tooth and a love of cookies and cream, why not get a table-top cotton candy machine? She can make her own sweets at home, and every time she licks it, she’ll think of you. You probably shouldn’t get this for a wife that doesn’t like the kitchen though, or one that carefully watches her weight.
Do you know where the couple first met, or where they had their first date? You could find out, get the coordinates, and have them crafted onto a compass key chain or a welcome plaque for their doorway. It makes a romantic reminder of their history together. If you don’t have that information (or if they can’t agree on where it happened), use the coordinates of their wedding venue.
One of the most personalised anniversary gifts you can give a wife or mother is to recreate her wedding bouquet. Use a clear wedding photo to guide a florist on re-making the timeless piece. But be sure that the bride likes flowers, and that she remembers what her bouquet looked like. Otherwise, it will just be a pretty bunch of flowers.

Spending a couple of nights with me in Napa, Sharon and I had a fantastic dinner at Auberge du Soleil. I had scallops, risotto and duck, while Sharon had foie gras, ricotta and veal. We had a Merry Edwards Estate Pinot Noir with dinner.
When I was a kid, we often ate ducks that my Dad had killed. As a result, I rarely order it for an entree. The duck was very good.

A baseline must be established to optimize bidding amount and Adwords budget, by measuring statistics for ad exposure (It is a factor where an ad is presented to a consumer, and an estimate is made on how many times this exposure is necessary to motivate consumer to buy a product), conversion rates, return of investment and profit.
In case of multiple campaigns, it is important to identify profitable keywords and make sure the campaign is not lacking funds. They are the one’s making profit and it will be better to run them all the time. The key is prioritizing and matching budgets and making appropriate re-allocations to optimize budget utilization.
Increasing bid: it will increase cost and position of ad, therefore providing more ad exposure and could potentially increase conversion rate.
Decreasing bid: it will decrease position and increase profit margin by lowering the average amount.
Decreasing bid: It will lower the ad position of the ad and lead to reduction of clicks and costs. This could also release some budget which could be reallocated to high performing keywords.
It would be important to identify, for specific times where conversion rates are better. Using this information and ad scheduling, the price adjustments can be done. This feature automatically increases the bid during a specified time of the day, thereby getting more clicks. Whereas it decreases the bid at time where high position doesn’t influence the profits as required.
Small adjustments are suggested by Google through small increments to measure performance and increase conversion rate. These adjustments can be played around to identify crucial factors and maximize conversion rates and profitability.

South Carolina head coach sees team ranked in the bottom half of the SEC in points scored, shooting percentage and points allowed.
COLUMBIA — Frank Martin is embarrassed about South Carolina's offense and the first-year coach isn't sure when things will improve.
Martin said the Gamecocks (5-3) have lost games to Elon, St. John's and rival Clemson in a large part because of their dreadful offensive execution. South Carolina sits in the bottom half of the Southeastern Conference in points scored, shooting percentage and points allowed.
Last Sunday, South Carolina trailed Clemson by double digits much of the second half in a 64-55 loss. Martin called the offense inept right after the loss. His view didn't change after watching tape the past few days.
Martin said he and his staff all re-watch the game by themselves before comparing notes on a game's highs and lows.
"Almost to the T, we're all in agreement that the problem with our team is how embarrassingly bad we've been on offense," Martin said this week. "And we've got to fix that."
Martin wasn't sure what to expect from the Gamecocks when he left Kansas State after five successful seasons to rebuild South Carolina's struggling program. Still, he thought the attack would flow better than it has.
"Our team defense has been not great, but it's been good enough to win with," Martin explained. "The problem is we're giving teams so many free points because of our inability to play offense. Our offense is so bad for numerous reasons, which is too long for me to sit here and explain right now, that it deflates us."
Martin's seen too much individual play and not enough teamwork on the offensive side. He's also complained about his team's lack of communication during games, saying he's seen more fire from his guys on Twitter than on the court this season.
"There's been a little bit of a lack of communication coming out of time outs and listening to what the coach has been telling us," said Brenton Williams, the Gamecocks leading scorer at 13.4 points a game. "We've got to find a way to communicate better."
Martin says the problem is partly leadership. He said his former Wildcats star Denis Clemente was a take-charge leader who knew the coach's wishes and ran games and practices with determination and precision.
The Gamecocks, like most struggling programs, are dealing with youth and the loss of players from last season's chaos of going 2-14 in the SEC. Forward Damontre Harris transferred to Florida and Anthony Gill left for Virginia. Point guard Bruce Ellington, the team's top returning scorer from last year, only returned to the team last week after finishing the football regular season.
Ellington, the Gamecocks top receiver with 38 catches and 564 yards, will leave the team again once No. 11 South Carolina starts practicing for the No. 19 Michigan in the Outback Bowl on New Year's Day.
All of that's led Martin to simplify his offense more than at any point in his six years as a college coach. Martin used a football analogy to explain the team's offensive struggles, saying he's only calling runs to the right or the left — and neither his running backs nor offensive line executes it properly.
"When our running back is supposed to run to the left, he runs to the right," Martin said. "And that's a major problem right now with our team, and it's a shame because all we're calling are those runs into those two gaps, and we can't figure that one out right now."
Martin's seen signs things could get better. He said Williams, his junior guard, came to him after the Clemson loss and asked to see tapes of Martin's Kansas State guards.
"'I want to see how they play so I can try and play like them,'" Martin said of Williams. "I thought that was a pretty powerful statement by that young man."
As frustrated as Martin is right now, he understands he's in the early stages of reclamation project. He's hopeful in time, leadership, communication and offense will all improve over time.
"We'll get it right," he said. "That's the beauty of a season is that you don't practice to play eight games. You practice to play through March, and last time I checked, that's three months away."

Took over a roster last year and it's weak really at RB with CJ Anderson and Dion Lewis being the best two RB's. Definitely going RB probably first two rounds, will try to snag Nyheim Hines in second or third, Suggestions for that pick in 1 pt. PPR league no TE premium and 1 QB. I have AB, Larry Fitz, Golden Tate, Edelman and Hogan plus some others at WR.
Also best podcast out there, you guys are hilarious and were a huge help last season, helped change my drafting style and it made big difference. I'm thinking Deon Cain will be a big surprise this season, I grabbed him in the 7th round in another rookie draft.
what up chef. sorry the delayed response. thanks for the kind words and signing up for the forum! we are hoping to build a great community on here.
what your league size and what are the starting requirements per positions?
when is your draft and what kind clock are you looking at? maybe we could give you some live advice when your underway and or on the clock.
depending on which RB is left at 1.5 you should try and trade down and pick up some equity...a lot of different avenues to go down, we could discuss this on an after show.
definitely let us know the answers to Casey's questions and hopefully we can help you out! I think grabbing Hines in the 2nd is a great plan...trying to trade up in the 1st wouldn't be the worst idea depending on what you have to give up, worst case scenario you can grab Kerryon if the other 4 backs go in front of you (can't really go wrong with Michel or Chubb either). If you're in complete rebuild mode moving Larry and or Chris Hogan could net you some younger pieces/future draft picks to help turn this team around in the near future. I love having those guys if I'm trying to make a run at a championship, otherwise I'd be trying to move them. Might be best to wait to move Chris Hogan til week 2 or 3 of the regular season when he's gobbling up targets in that depleted WR room. We really appreciate the kind words and the support of the show!
Chef, I really like that Jordan Wilkins pick up in the 4th almost as much as I dislike that Lamar Jackson pick in the 2nd 🙂 I'm sure Cory loves that I just can't get behind him (to a fault maybe, I just don't believe in his ability to play the position but if he gets a chance and flashes some you could move him for a profit so I don't hate it). Wilkins looked pretty good late in his first preseason action, he could be primed to take over that spot especially if Mack can't get healthy and Turbin out for 4 games with the PEDs. He's a solid all around back who could be the only healthy option for early down work. I think we would have all had to go Kerryon over Rojo with that 5th pick but if Rojo is your guy I can't blame you, he's certainly electric if he can pass protect and get on the field he's going to score points for sure. Thanks for hitting us back man let us know if you got any more questions.
Hey man wanted to follow up with you...at least Lamar showed some improvement in the 3rd & 4th weeks of the preseason...he's still not ready but the athleticism like you said is undeniable and he will be a solid trading piece for a while since everyone is so enamored with him. Thanks for all the support of the show man we really appreciate it!

An ever-increasing number regarding children nowadays are getting a home university education. The causes for making the decision to residence school their particular kids may differ from household to household but you can find three significant reasons why mom and dad are eliminating their children from your public university system and going for a residence school schooling.
The initial reason is the public schooling system in america is struggling to offer a appropriate education for your nation’s youngsters with old text guides, run straight down school properties and limited equipment. Provision of your home university education permits the parents to own control over the grade of the instructional materials employed by their children as well as the general conditions where they are usually educated.
The next reason will be that parents need to assume a lot more control on the influences their particular children will be exposed to. This is frequently on such basis as religious coffee grounds but, often, it is just because a property school schooling will ensure the little one learns the particular values upheld from the family which is taught from an early on age just what behavior is acceptable. Unfortunately, many community schools use a poor popularity for instilling excellent discipline inside students. This often brings about badly well-socialized children disrupting instruction and avoiding their colleagues from having the full good thing about classes. Discipline as well as the upholding regarding proper specifications of behavior can be an important section of a residence school schooling.
The next reason several parents elect to give their particular children a property school schooling is fear for safety. Violence is around the increase everywhere as well as the public university system have not escaped this kind of trend. Violence inside the public schooling system is getting worse as well as the individual works of violence tend to be serious. Since the particular shocking activities at Columbine High school graduation there were further tragedies concerning firearms in which teachers and also students are already injured or perhaps killed. A residence school schooling ensures the particular safety regarding children who otherwise become seriously vulnerable to harm.
Providing a property school education just isn’t simply any matter regarding parental selection. In many cases hawaii education board with the state when the family resides must approve a determination to offer a child a property school schooling. The person accepting the duty of homeschooling has to be certified to become home trainer, the program must follow hawaii curriculum, as well as the text books as well as other educational materials being used has to be approved from the state. Although this could seen just like undue interference in exactly what matter regarding personal selection, the state features a responsibility to make sure that all youngsters receive a satisfactory standard regarding education and also checks will probably be made to make sure that any youngster being kept far from public school will be properly knowledgeable.
A residence school schooling might signify a youngster is lacking of specific opportunities which will have recently been available inside public university system. There may be difficulties inside providing services for fitness children to appreciate their prospective. Musically skilled children could possibly be similarly disadvantaged. In several states there is certainly provision regarding children getting a home university education to indulge in amenities for instance to be able to attend sporting activities lessons and also join after-school golf clubs. However, the degree of assistance offered to homeschooling parents just isn’t uniform and also varies a whole lot from state to mention.
The ultimate potential downside to have an effect on children getting a home university education is that they can not produce the sociable skills that is important while they grow upwards. Social interaction making use of their peers sufficient reason for adults beyond your family is vital if a kid will probably grow up using a properly equilibrium personality plus a reasonable amount of social expertise. These developmental issues may be fairly effortlessly overcome in the event the child lives in the state in which homeschooling parents get support as well as the child getting a home university education will be accepted directly into classes and also extra-curricular routines.
The decision to help keep a child out from the public schooling system just isn’t one virtually any parent would certainly make casually and virtually any weighing up with the advantages and disadvantages must consider the level regarding support hawaii will offer. However, in the event the public university system continues to deteriorate, how many children getting a home university education is likely to increase.

For the last few months, physicists have been attempting to explain the apparent discovery of neutrinos traveling faster than the speed of light. No one has as yet refuted this finding, but some other particles may refute these neutrinos' existence.
In September, physicists at the OPERA experiment announced that they had observed neutrinos traveling through the Earth from CERN to an underground detector in Gran Sasso seemingly faster than the speed of light, arriving 60 nanoseconds earlier than the laws of physics would allow. Right now, physicists around the world are attempting to replicate these findings and to sort through all possible objections and potential sources of error. It's early days yet, but the OPERA anomaly has stood up fairly well to these attempts thus far.
But now Washington University St. Louis physicist Ramanath Cowsik and his team have come up with what is quite possibly an impossible problem for these faster-than-light neutrinos to overcome. Instead of focusing on the neutrinos themselves, Cowsik looked at the other subatomic particles in the experiment that were smashed together to create the neutrinos.
Here's how the OPERA experiment worked: Protons were shot towards a stationary object, which produced a pulse of particles known as pions. These are low-mass subatomic particles that are composed of a pair of quarks. (For more on pions, check out our particle physics field guide.) These pions were magnetically forced through a long tunnel, and there they decayed into neutrinos and muons, which are like a more massive cousin of electrons.
When the particles reached the end of the tunnel, the muons smashed into the wall and came to a stop, but the extremely light neutrinos slipped right through and made their way to Gran Sasso, a journey they seemingly completed 60 nanoseconds too quickly.
The problem, from a theoretical perspective, is how to fit the pions into this story. To reach superluminal speeds, the neutrinos must have possessed extreme amounts of energy. The law of conservation of energy and momentum demands that that energy came from somewhere — specifically, the pions. But Cowsik calculated that if pions were to have enough energy to create faster-than-light neutrinos, then their lifetimes would also increase.
That expanded pion lifespan would dramatically change the particles' decay patterns, and that's where the problem comes in. As the lifetime of the pion increases, the neutrinos would carry a smaller and smaller fraction of the total energy of the particle — meaning they wouldn't have enough energy to reach faster-than-light speeds. And that problem only gets worse the more energy you add to the pions.
This is a major problem for the existence of superluminal neutrinos, though Cowsik doesn't overstate his findings, simply observing "that in the present framework of physics, superluminal neutrinos would be difficult to produce." It would appear that pions are exactly the wrong decay source for such neutrinos, since there just doesn't seem to be a way to transfer enough energy from pions to neutrinos in our current understanding of physics.
"IceCube has seen neutrinos with energies 10,000 times higher than those the OPERA experiment is creating. Thus, the energies of their parent pions should be correspondingly high. Simple calculations, based on the conservation of energy and momentum, dictate that the lifetimes of those pions should be too long for them ever to decay into superluminal neutrinos. But the observation of high-energy neutrinos by IceCube indicates that these high-energy pions do decay according to the standard ideas of physics, generating neutrinos whose speed approaches that of light but never exceeds it."
So, what does this mean for the OPERA anomaly? Since the results themselves seem to require previously unknown physics to explain them, it's at least conceivable that some other exotic phenomenon could explain this pion decay problem. But right now, this appears to be some of the most damning evidence yet against the existence of the faster-than-light neutrinos.

China’s manufacturing sector expanded only slightly in October as output remained broadly unchanged amid marginal increase in new business, survey data from IHS Markit showed Thursday.
The Caixin Purchasing Managers’ Index came in at 50.1 in October versus 50.0 in September. The reading was expected to remain unchanged at neutral level of 50.0.
A score above 50 indicates expansion. Prior to September, the health of the sector had improved for 15 consecutive months.
According to official survey, the factory PMI slid to 50.2 in October from 50.8 in September.
Production was little-changed in October due to relatively subdued market demand. After stagnating in September, new orders grew slightly in October despite the amount of new export business falling for the seventh month.
Further, the survey showed that employment fell again in October, thereby extending the current sequence of job shedding to five years. That said, the rate of reduction was the slowest seen since May.
Prices data signaled another squeeze on operating margins as input costs continued to rise at a faster rate than output charges. The rate of cost inflation accelerated to the second-sharpest in nine months.
Although firms were generally optimistic that output would increase over the next year, sentiment dipped to an 11-month low amid concerns over current subdued market conditions and the impact of the ongoing China-US trade dispute.
The latest survey data, while not as bad as some feared, still paint a fairly downbeat picture, Julian Evans-Pritchard, an economist at Capital Economics, said.
Overall, the PMIs for October suggest that growth remained on a downward trajectory at the start of the fourth quarter, with more weakness likely in the coming months, the economist added.

Diabetes is one of the more prominent diseases within the United States. According to the American Diabetes Association, 1.4 million new cases of Americans are diagnosed every year.
Being a newly diagnosed patient can be frightening and, often, overwhelming. Lifestyle changes are difficult, especially since many Americans are uneducated on the diabetes frontier. Diabetes is a complicated condition that can be difficult to bear if not treated appropriately. Dr. Mark Watkins, a pediatric endocrinologist, practices at the Endocrine & Diabetes Care Center in the ProMedica Mary Ellen Falzone Diabetes Center in Toledo. He completed his residency in internal medicine and pediatrics at the University of Toledo in 2004 and, from there, completed a three-year fellowship in pediatric endocrinology at the University of Michigan in 2007.
HealthScene Ohio: What is the most commonly misunderstood concept about diabetes?
Dr. Mark Watkins: There is a lot of confusion regarding the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an auto-immune disease in which the person’s own immune system destroys the beta cells that produce insulin. Type 2 diabetes is when the body becomes resistant to insulin, resulting in high blood sugars. In general, people with type 1 diabetes are completely dependent on insulin for survival while people with type 2 diabetes often take insulin to help lower their blood sugars, but they are dependent on insulin for survival.
HSO: Is it difficult for a diabetic person to prepare food for himself or herself?
MW: For type 1 diabetes, the overall diet doesn’t change very much. However, the proper insulin dose needs to be calculated to account for the carbohydrates in the meal. For type 2 diabetes, diet changes significantly because obesity is frequently present.
HSO: What would you tell a pregnant woman who develops gestational diabetes about maintaining her and the baby’s health?
MW: In pregnant women with type 1 diabetes, if uncontrolled during pregnancy, it can be very harmful to the baby. Babies can be born very large, congenital heart disease may be present and dangerously low blood sugars may develop, just to name a few of the possible complications. It’s very important to see a maternal-fetal medicine specialist.
HSO: How can one avoid becoming diabetic? If I am diabetic, are my kids at risk of following in a similar path?
MW: There isn’t a way to prevent type 1 diabetes and, often, there is no family history, either.
For type 1, they are at risk if one of the parents has type 1 diabetes. For example, if a father has type 1 diabetes, there is a 4 percent chance that multiple children will be affected, and if the mother has diabetes, there is an 8 percent chance. There are studies being conducted to help prevent the development of type 1. One of the studies aims to prevent antibodies from destroying beta cells.
For type 2 diabetes, there are risk factors, some of which are modifiable and non-modifiable. Modifiable risk factors are those you can control, such as diet and exercise. Non-modifiable risk factors are things you cannot control, such as if both parents have diabetes. Also, some ethnic groups that are at risk are American Indians, African Americans and Hispanics.
HSO: How can families of the diabetic help their loved ones?
MW: With type 1 diabetes, families can help by learning as much as they can. Everybody who is assisting in the care of the child should learn and be educated.
HSO: How important is exercise?
MW: Exercise can increase muscle mass, which improves insulin sensitivity and, in turn, lowers blood sugar and allows insulin to work better. Better controlled blood sugars prevent diseases such as blindness, kidney disease, and nerve damage.
HSO: What if diabetics can’t afford medication?
MW: This is a major problem with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Fortunately, most children are on a parent’s insurance, but I’ve had a case with a patient who chose between insulin and college. Insulin is several hundred dollars per month. When patients aren’t able to get everything they need, they will have very poor control of their disease. However, many patients can be helped through government assistance. There are also some drug companies that have patient assistance programs where they get either discounted or free medications.
HSO: Is there a support group people can join?
MW: Yes, we have an organization called Diabetes Youth Services. It provides education to parents, support and education to school nurses. Also, there is a diabetes camp for all age groups, along with our teen support group. The organization services are in southeast Michigan and northeast Ohio.

When Isaac Newton´s alchemical papers surfaced at a Sotheby´s auction in 1936, the quantity and seeming incoherence of the manuscripts was shocking. No longer the exemplar of Enlightenment rationality, the legendary physicist suddenly became ´´the last of the magicians.´´ Newton the Alchemist unlocks the secrets of Newton´s alchemical quest, providing a radically new understanding of the uncommon genius who probed nature at its deepest levels in pursuit of empirical knowledge. In this evocative and superbly written book, William Newman blends in-depth analysis of newly available texts with laboratory replications of Newton´s actual experiments in alchemy. He does not justify Newton´s alchemical research as part of a religious search for God in the physical world, nor does he argue that Newton studied alchemy to learn about gravitational attraction. Newman traces the evolution of Newton´s alchemical ideas and practices over a span of more than three decades, showing how they proved fruitful in diverse scientific fields. A precise experimenter in the realm of ´´chymistry,´´ Newton put the allusive riddles of alchemy to the test in his lab. He also used ideas drawn from the alchemical texts to great effect in his optical experimentation. In his hands, alchemy was a tool for attaining the material benefits associated with the philosopher´s stone and an instrument for acquiring scientific knowledge of the most sophisticated kind.
Informationen zur Reihe: Das Lehrwerk ´´Newton´´ führt schülerorientiert in die Grundlagen der Physik ein. Dabei legen die Autoren großen Wert auf eine ausführliche und verständliche Darstellung der Experimente. Das Lehrwerk enthält umfangreiches Aufgabenmaterial und gibt vielfältige Anregungen zu Schülerexperimenten. Die häufigen Querverbindungen zur Erfahrungswelt der Schüler/innen führen zu besserem Verständnis der technischen Phänomene, mit denen sie im täglichen Leben zu tun haben.
Newton was a natural philosopher (the word ´´scientist´´ had not yet been coined) who described a planetary system held together by gravitational forces. His ´´Principia´´ changed science forever; gravity not only explained the orbits of stars, it explained common earthly events as well. Newton established a way of thinking that still shapes our everyday understanding of how the world works. The Science and Discovery series recreates one of history´s most successful journeys: 4,000 years of scientific efforts to better understand and control the physical world. Science has often challenged and upset conventional wisdom or accepted practices; this is a story of vested interests and independent thinkers, experiments and theories, change and progress. 1.

Yesterday was a full day. I loved hearing more of the place we were meeting in. Friend Matt Hobash offered the space, a beautiful wearhouse that is now the new home to the Mid Ohio Food Bank. They are the 10th largest food bank of 260 nationally, distributing 33 million pounds of food in 2009. Twenty percent of that is local. The food bank captures and redistributes excess food. It has a vision that it is living — to become a center for hunger and nutrition education, to become a community center for many levels of wellness and inquiry.
The checkin round was full. Honest, real expressions of “not knowing.” Of being “between worlds.” Of intention to learn and to practice together a rich level of listening. The contexting gems started to surface as I began to imagine how I will use the game, how I will speak it.
It was a full day. As we met for 20-30 minutes for each person, it required deliberate listening. I found that I learned much in others questions. Another experience of wholeness as my learnings peaked through another persons questions. I was tired by the end. Tired in the way that I see many through my hosting work — energized from the experience, yet fatigued because of the energy commitment it takes to create together. We are all strengthening those abilities.
I learned my about artfulness in the game. The art of offering, whether it be a story, something that I love, a question, a song, a poem, an image, a vision, or a simple witnessing. I learned about connecting question to purpose and to the impressions inspired by the cards of the game — from the seven directions of North, South, East, West, Heaven, Earth, Integrated Whole.
Looking forward to the next days of learning with this.

Since I was a child, I enjoyed reading comics and drawing. After finishing my studies in Human Biology at Pompeu Fabra University and a Master’s of Science in Medical and Environmental Communciation, I decided to combine science and arts to create and disseminate comics about biology: Biomiics.
How do you get inspiration for your stories?
Often I draw things I learned in my degree’s courses that grabbed my attention. For example, the fact that we’ve got neurons over a meter long. I search for analogies between biological processes and daily funny or even melodramatic situations, so people can learn about science through the cells’, proteins’, or molecules’ little adventures.
Why did you start mixing art and science? Where did the idea come from?
I’ve always loved drawing, especially manga. I discovered the field of science communication thanks to a third-year optional subject during my degree. It was there I found out that science communication was a possible future career. When I was finishing my fourth year, I realized that I’d hardly been able to draw during my degree, even though drawing is my passion, and I wanted to do something to change that.
I wanted to merge the world of biology, which I think is really interesting, with drawing, and it became clear to me that the solution was to communicate science through drawing. Nevertheless, I did not think about comics, but about scientific illustration or graphic design.
When we were doing the Master’s, a group of friends thought about creating a dissemination blog with several formats such as articles and videos, and I decided to do computer graphics in comic form. In the end, the blog never got off the ground because we were very busy. But I’d done my first comic, and since I’d done it I wanted to share it.
What is your approach to infographics and how do you start to draw a complex biological theory? Do you have any tips on how to make complex theories easy to visualize?
First, I decide the topic I want to draw about. Then, I search for information in order to gain a deeper knowledge and comprehension so I can decide the two or three key points. This is important because sometimes we want to explain too many concepts, which is a problem.
Everything else but these three concepts must be avoided to not complicate the message, and that’s what you must base your story and the visual elements on.
Which techniques do you use? Pencil and paper and scan or directly drawing on your computer using software?
Exactly. I use a pencil and a sheet of paper to draw the sketch or the storyboard. Then, I scan and use it as a template to draw the final comic with a vectoral drawing and coloring program.
What is the main achievement you are most proud of?
When I started to study sciences at university, I thought my artistic self would be pushed into the background, so I am very glad to be drawing dissemination comics about science considering it was very difficult for me to get into the freelance world.
You have a Master’s in Scientific Communication. Do you have a secret recipe for explaining research to business leaders?
Not only to business leaders but also to students and the general public. Storytelling has proven to be a great tool for disseminating scientific information. The stories and their characters catch you in an emotional way because they are funny, sad or even indignant, and it is precisely that which makes people remember the information. Using an everyday language is also important.
Technicisms can make difficult to understand information and easy to lose interest in the subject. This is a resource you can use in articles, videos, posts… and comics. What’s more, we remember 65% of what we see and only 10% of what we read. A comic combines a story and attractive visual elements, so it is a potent tool for communicating science, especially now that we have access to social media.
What are your best practices for working with professors and business leaders?
In any case, it is important to know their needs. If it is necessary, when someone asks me for a commission, I usually have a little interview with him or her. This lets me build trust between us and ask for more details about the commission. In this way, I can adapt my quotes to the client. During the process, I establish some phases or checkpoints and ask the client for revisions or comments to advance correctly. It could be said the client and I work as a team.

Many people who voted for Donald Trump did so because they allowed themselves to be convinced that nothing was more important than keeping Hillary Clinton out of the Oval Office. They rightly believed that she would continue Obama's abandonment of the moral premises of America's character and the institutions that depend upon it, like the natural family. They rightly perceived that she would continue Obama's forcible drive to impose totalitarian socialism on the people of the United States, replacing our constitutional liberty with government dictatorship.
Above all, they rightly concluded that she would continue Obama's strategy of importing hostile persons and groups into the United States to facilitate the transformation of this nation's population, the citizens of which form the body whose sovereign authority ordains, establishes, and ultimately oversees the institutions of constitutional self-government in our country.
The abuse and subversion of our border and immigration policies was the key to implementing this transformational strategy. It included the importation of persons with murderous, hostile intent, shipped in under the guise of extending help to refugees from countries most subject to the depredations of Islamic jihadi terrorism. The strategy also involved careless enforcement of the laws intended to secure our borders and regulate entry into the United States. This allowed criminal elements from Latin and South America to enter the United States repeatedly, despite being apprehended and deported time after time.
Impelled by the evidence of experience in the streets and schools of their communities, of the growing disorder and degradation of orderly life this laxity entailed, Americans inveighed against the strategic assault. They were constantly ignored and vilified. The leadership of the party that is supposed to be in opposition to Obama and Clinton warred against them repeatedly in political contests, openly declaring war during the 2014 GOP primaries. Donald Trump saw his political opportunity in the resentment and hostile distrust produced by this continual and open contempt for voters' feelings.
It allowed him to pursue his ambition to parlay great wealth into direct political power. Parachuting into the GOP primaries, he voiced the resentment and distrust boiling over among the GOP's constituents. He did so stridently: boldly naming names, calling names, slamming his opponents as the culprits, even though it meant rousing the demons of division and internecine conflict that prowl in the shadow of America's tragic history of racial and religious bigotry.
To this end, he deployed the habitual "sales puffery" encouraged by his repeated success in merchandising Trump-branded projects and products to people mesmerized by his gaudily alluring imitation of life. He conjured visions of the great wall he would build to end the foreign invasion of America. He exploited the loathing easily engendered toward the objects of fear. He discarded the often-ironical politeness, correctly appraised as hypocritical, most politicians compulsively deploy.
Not long ago, before a rudely self-indulgent popular culture debased our sense of moral and political propriety (i.e., the sense of how people should behave toward their fellow citizen, even when they disagree), this open exploitation of fear and loathing would have been enough to make a candidate a political pariah, especially when pursuing the office, above all others, that is supposed to represent the Constitution's first-listed goal of "union." This sense of political propriety (as distinct from so-called "political correctness") persists among conservative Republicans, especially those who profess to follow Christ.
But Donald Trump was (and remains?) a cultural Democrat. For a long time, he immersed himself in the libertine social culture of American leftists, dominant among Democrats. Rhetorically rude and violent attacks against political opponents are this libertine culture's stock-in-trade, more so because the aim of Marxist/Leninist/Alinskyite politics is to subvert and disintegrate the constraining moral "superstructure" that masks and upholds the ruling elites whose power the communists/socialists aim to overthrow and replace.
Adherents of this leftist culture have no stake in maintaining the moral understanding and character that sustains our constitutional, democratic republic, because they have no stake in the success of the institutions of democratic sovereignty it aims to preserve. They could not care less for the constitutional separation of power, the system of checks and balances, or the careful cultivation of respect for the exercise of God-endowed right, which America's prevalent founders regarded as bulwarks crucial to giving the sovereignty of the American people its best chance to endure.
The mantra of leftist politics is "change," not endurance. Leftist change denotes the constant flow of history. It reflects the constant stream of material events, in which all bounds, limits, and constraints are illusions, imposed by our defective understanding. They serve to mask the only thing that matters, which is the effective power generated by the flow. In the context of this leftist understanding, promises – though they conjure solid walls of safety – are, as it were, written in water, more transient than shifting sands. As I have said before, Americans of goodwill who put their trust in Donald Trump must prepare themselves, lest his failure to keep faith with them impels them to lose faith in the true aims and premises of our nation.

With their brains, sleep patterns and even eyes still developing, children and adolescents are particularly vulnerable to the sleep-disrupting effects of screen time, according to a review of the literature published in the journal Pediatrics.
The researchers reviewed more than 60 studies on children's screen time in front of TVs, computers, tablets and smart phones. More than 90 per cent found it led to delayed bedtimes, fewer hours of sleep and worse sleep quality, with the evidence suggesting children's immature eyes may be to blame.
Lead author Dr Monique LeBourgeois, from the University of Colorado at Boulder, said: "Light is our brain clock's primary timekeeper. We know younger individuals have larger pupils, and their lenses are more transparent, so their exposure and sensitivity to that light is even greater than in older individuals."
Data from US population-based studies show that about 30% of preschool-aged children and between 50% and 90% of school-aged children and adolescents do not get as much sleep as they may need. Screen-based media devices are present in the bedrooms of 75% of children and 60% of adolescents report viewing or interacting with screens in the hour before bedtime.
And computer use was more consistently associated with poor sleep outcomes than television, perhaps because television watching may be less interactive than computer-based activities.
Lack of sleep and poor sleep quality are associated with daytime tiredness, which in turn is linked to a large number of negative outcomes, including poor school performance and a host of psychological problems.

Speaking to Mazazi Willy M Tuva in a phone call, King Kaka who is currently in the US said that he was taking photos in the middle of the road at night which is illegal in Los Angeles. Close shave While in the act a cop pop out of nowhere and arrested him but King Kaka managed to escape being taken to jail after telling him he’s a rapper from Kenyan who has worked with Tracy Morgan. Surprisingly, the cop remembered him and forgave him. “Nilikuwa na marafiki zangu napiga picha LA katikati ya barabara which ni violation. Polisi walipokuja wakanishika pamoja na rafiki zangu. Lakini kabla watuingishe gari nikawaaambia ‘I am King Kaka’ it’s my last day in LA because I am headed to Silicon Valley. ” I told them mimi ni rapper kutoka Kenya and I have worked with Tracy Morgan akanigundua akasema ‘Aah nimeona interview yako ,najua nyimbo yako na Tracy Morgan. You are a Kenyan I have to let you go.’ Akaanza kuniambia profile yangu. ‘Najua unafanya sanitary towels, wewe ni msanii mkubwa Kenya.’ Tukapiga picha nao,ilikuwa nzuri,” King Kaka revealed on Mambo Mseto.
The post King Kaka almost arrested in the US for taking photos in the middle of the road appeared first on Ghafla! Kenya.

With his beefed up body, victory over Meek Mill, and new relationship with Serena Williams, Drake has really been smashing it this summer. But he took it a little too literally yesterday when he was taking soccer shots in his home court. He was aiming for a long-distance score, but things went awry….
At least he had a sense of humor about the whole thing, shouting a hearty “Goaaallllll!” after shattering a lamp post. “Crazy lamp trick shot,” he captioned the video. Sure, that’s one way to spin it. Ronaldo probably won’t be calling anytime soon, though.
Drizzy had better luck on the ping-pong court, where he emerged victorious after a game with his friend. Thankfully, no lamps were harmed in the making of this video.

CALMAR--Are you ready to talk spring gardening? Take a walk from the past with me and you can enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of spring with me as we wait for the full glory of our area to come into bloom.
If you enter the backyard from a side garden entrance into Kyke and Bev Lutkenhaus’s of Calmar in early June in beautiful Northeast Iowa, you are immediately greeted by a three huge Priness Red Weigela flowering bushes , that the couple bought from Sindelar Nursery in Fort Atkinson twenty years ago! Kyke faithfully trims them after the spring blossoms fade each year.
Kyke and Bev have a beautiful sun room looking out onto their gorgeous backyard and garden. As we sat drinking our morning coffee, we enjoyed the view of the Baltimore Orioles as they came to drink the nectar out of one of feeders. Wandering out to the patio/deck area, Bev points out the red exotic-looking flowering Mandevilla plant. This new feature was placed on the table between two lounge chairs, all to lure the hummingbirds closer when the couple is outside. We just can't wait to see these little fliers, soon as the sweet smell of spring blossoms just around the corner!
The couple has always had a vegetable garden, even since they were married over fifty year agos. Since gardening was a hobby they both enjoyed from childhood, it was natural that they would have a garden together. Kyke remembers as a young lad assisting his mother with the garden preparation. It often consisted of the usual Midwestern garden veggies plus lots of potatoes. Homemade sauerkraut, potatoes, peas, and beans would last through most of the winter. And he loved those homemade delicious apple pies made from their own apple trees. Bev remembers walking to the garden with her mother and sisters to plant, hoe, and pull the endless supply of weeds. “The large garden was some distance from the house and Mother always knew by the position of the sun when it was time to prepare dinner.". The usual patch of potatoes and sweet corn were always growing on the edge of a farm field. Bev remembers so well how her family loved French style green beans that her mother prepared. “Growing up eating all that wonderful fresh produce lead us to the love of eating vegetables,” said Bev.
Flowers grown from their original seeds in this garden include Morning Glories and Marigolds. The couple purchases Impatients and Petunias. “Most of our containers are planted with perennials which can be wintered over quite successfully. We have large containers filled with Upright Fine Leaf Buckthorn, Hibiscus, Hostas, Brunneras with Ribbon Grass, Japanese Painted Ferns, Columbines, and more. My favorites are the lovely Shorbet Peonies, pink and white Bleeding Hearts, Candytuft, and Hakone Grass,” explains Bev.
Their vegetable garden generally does well, and when the first radishes, lettuce, and spinach are done, a warmer crop is planted in their place. “We grow the usual veggies. Sugar snap peas, green beans, spinach, tomatoes, cabbage, broccoli asparagus, lettuce radish, onions, cucumbers, and this year for the first time we added eggplant, vegetable squash, and zucchini. Fruits the garden is filled with, are grapes, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, rhubarb and for the first time, our cherry tree has a few tiny cherries on it. Growing conditions must have been favorable since we have never seen so many blossoms on our strawberry plants before. The garden is moderate in size and we don’t preserve or process much although had such nice broccoli last year we did freeze that. We just have a little of everything, just to eat fresh,” continues Bev.
Annually, the couple put on two loads of compost from Annie’s Garden and Green to enrich the soil. “We do compost, but not enough for the entire garden,” explains Kyke.
Bev took the Master gardeners classes several years ago at NICC through Iowa State using the ICN facilities there. "Iowa Master Gardener" is an educational and volunteer service program of the Iowa State University and ISU Extension. Through this program, interested volunteers receive advanced training in horticulture and environmental topics of special value to the home gardener. To maintain your status and to remain certified, one needs to complete a required number of educational and volunteer hours. Decorah is home to a very active Master Gardeners club, who volunteer their knowledge and hands to complete and maintain many worthwhile projects. Due to some health issues, Bev was not able to complete the required volunteer hours and so presently, she is not certified. “It’s a fine group and I hope to join again soon,” she says after having been very active in the group for many years.
The couple finds gardening and landscaping a very relaxing and stress-free hobby. Although the Lutkenhaus’s have a double lot, they would like to try sweet potatoes and kiwi some year if they can find space, because they like the challenge of growing something new in their garden. Leaving the Lutkenhaus’s after a delightful morning, Bev points out a mourning dove on a nest in a flowering crab tree in the front yard. The hard work put into these well kept lawn, beautiful shrubs and bushes, lovely trees, and thoughtful gardens has made a lush habitat for everyone, even the tiniest of creatures.

My co-blogger Philip Jenkins is in the midst of a fascinating series of posts (most recently, here) related to the four gospel accounts of a woman anointing Jesus. In Luke’s gospel and also in John’s, a woman (Mary of Bethany, in John’s gospel) anoints Jesus’s feet and then wipes them with her hair.
While writing my book on The Mormon Jesus, I came across several instances in which Latter-day Saint women reenacted the very details of that scene with their husbands.
For instance, in 1853 Ruth Page became the plural wife of Samuel H. Rogers, who ten years earlier while a missionary in New Jersey had confirmed Ruth following her baptism. In 1879, Ruth’s husband was preparing to move with at least one of his other wives to a Mormon settlement in Arizona. He asked her to remain behind in Parowan, Utah.
The tender scene is a remarkable imitation of Mary (as nineteenth-century Mormons identified the woman) and Jesus. The second anointing was a ritual or ordinance reserved for couples who had demonstrated a high level of commitment and worthiness. According to Brigham Young, the second anointing conferred “the fulness of the Priesthood, all that can be given on earth,” a promise that the recipients’ exaltation was certain. Anointed and ordained as kings and priests in anticipation of their future kingdoms, men now possessed the authority — the “keys” — to perform “all the ordinances belonging to the kingdom of God.” A wife in turn was priestess and queen “unto her Husband,” participating next to him in the governance of an eternal familial kingdom.
In the second stage of the ordinance, the wife and husband reprised the roles of Mary and Jesus. Two months later, Vilate Kimball prepared her husband for his “burial.” She washed Heber’s feet, then anointed his feet, head, and stomach. The ritual ensured their readiness to rise together when Christ returned, presuming they died before that event. Vilate Kimball wrote that she had anointed her husband so that she might “have a claim upon” her “dear companion” in the resurrection. She did so “even as Mary did Jesus.” Death would not separate them from each other or from the promises and blessings conferred upon them by the priesthood.
Between the early 1840s and the 1920s, tens of thousands of Latter-day Saints (in their lifetimes or posthumously) received their second anointings. Thereafter, the ordinance became rare, bestowed on only very high-ranking leaders and their wives. Church leaders rarely discuss the ordinance, though recent publications (such as the Joseph Smith Papers volumes) have done so.
under certain conditions women have been ordained Priestesses unto their husbands, and set apart to rule and reign with them &c. Then comes the holy ordinance of “washing of feet” and anointing with holy ointment, as Mary administered to Jesus. The wife to the husband. This is a law of the Priesthood which Mary understood, having learned it of the Lord. And she received his blessing and approval for it. It was not confined to her nor to the Lord, but so much was given out for a key to the truth.
Joseph F. Smith made this connection in a private letter, but he and other high-ranking leaders (including Brigham Young, Orson Pratt, and George Q. Cannon) publicly asserted that Jesus had married and fathered children on earth. After the church’s definitive abandonment of new plural marriages in the early twentieth century, such talk publicly disappeared. While a good number of Latter-day Saints believed that Jesus indeed married during his earthly life, the church has made clear that it takes no official position on the matter.

Not even the author knows a text more intimately than the translator.
Would you say the process of translation becomes more enriching with longer association with the writer and his work?
The process of translation certainly becomes richer with deeper association with the writer's work. As a translator, I could acquire a far deeper sense of the writer's voice by a close reading of the writer's oeuvre than through personal acquaintance with them, which may not always be possible. It could well be because the author puts more of himself in his work than in contexts of social acquaintance. Still, association with the writer does help to an extent, but in my experience, it's not critical. I try my best to recreate the style and nuances of meaning as in the original text and in alignment with authorial intent, because I believe it is the core task of the translator.
From translating human voices to a goat's, did you have to make a conscious effort to balance the register of voices or stick a certain tone?
It may sound mystical, but one translates from inside the text, from one's immersive experience of the text. As a translator, I am highly sensitive to the elements of craft and technique embedded in the text. So I translate by instinct and not conscious intent. It is often said that no one, not even the author, knows a text more intimately than the translator. It might well be true. The 'problem' of different registers and tones of voice that you cite has already been addressed by the author in the original with great literary skill. All one has to do is to read closely and stay true to one's experience during the process of translation.
Did the fact that the book is a satire, some have called it an allegory, determine how you went about translating it?
The translator doesn't have to determine beforehand whether a text is a satire or an allegory. If he stays close to the text, he can reproduce the same ambiguity of form and intent that readers are said to have perceived in the original.
Murugan's prose style is very modern and free of any linguistic quirks. For me, the most difficult aspect of translating the novel was finding suitable common names for the flora and fauna of the region that occur in the narrative. While many species of trees and plants have common names in English, some are so local that they don't have common names that the reader can recognise easily. The only alternative was to retain the original Tamil names, which is somehow less than satisfactory as a solution.
The last few chapters, laden as they are with grief, were the most difficult to translate. Murugan retains an even tone even when he is writing about moments of great anguish. In retrospect, getting this right was a huge challenge.
The challenge and thrill of creating a literary text anew in a different language in a different context, with all its qualities intact.
At the request of the Tamil publisher, I had translated a couple of chapters from the novel for circulation among publishers who wished to participate in bidding for translation rights. The successful bidder chose to commission the translation from me. The relevance of the work in the wider political context of our time was a major factor in my decision to accept the commission.
None that I can think of. As I've said before, it's the original text that determines both the techniques and the style, and much of it happens by instinct.
What was the first work you ever translated? How did it come to you?
The first work of fiction to appear in my translation was a collection of short stories by Ashokamitran called The Colours of Evil, in March 1998. As I recall, the publisher had approached Ashokamitran and expressed their wish to bring out a collection of his short stories in English translation. It was Ashokamitran who had suggested my name to them, presumably on the strength of a couple of stories I had done earlier. By then, I had also been in conversation with him as a reader for about twenty years. Neither of us had foreseen the prospect of my becoming a translator of his works. So it came to me, you might say, from the department of unexpected outcomes!

Put action into your customers’ insights.
By now you’ve learned that managing your online reputation is important, and that the most beneficial way to do so is through earning online reviews from your customers.
Although it is great to have a good reputation and earn new customers through your positive review presence, what are some other actionable ways that you can use customers’ reviews?
Online reviews do not only have to stay confined to the internet – they can be brought to life by aiding in your internal and operational day-to-day to better your business.
Gathering feedback from your audience through online reviews helps you gain insight from their experience.
Feedback from online reviews helps your business, product(s), and/or customer experience improve due to the reactions and suggestions received.
Well, reviews don’t only exist as customer opinions for others to learn about your business – they also serve as feedback from customers for you to take into serious consideration. Of course, you want to do more of what they say you are doing well, and take note of areas for improvement.
Your reviews inevitably won’t all be entirely positive, so make sure to notice the less-than-favorable or suggested enhancements from customer experiences.
As long as you have someone assigned to regularly be checking your new online reviews or – even better – an aggregate online review system, then you can stay on top of what consumers are saying about your business. From here, keep track of improvement suggestions to implement in your products or internal processes.
Do you need a review platform to help you manage your online reviews?
Talk to a CallSource representative for our solution today.
Next, look at some competitive benchmarking. By viewing online reviews of your competition, you will learn what you can do that your competitors can’t or what you do better than they do and vice-versa.
Determine if any improvements or processes can be improved by what your peers are doing. Do customers seem to comment on one aspect of their business that they really like that you can implement on your end? Maybe you should start doing something similar! Do they seem to lack in customer service but you know that is the bread-and-butter of what makes people choose you over them? Continue to work on staying great in that area of your business.
Once you start using your online reviews to make improvements, you should gain more positive online reviews simply from making your business better and listening to customer feedback.
Update customers who left reviews suggesting (or complaining) about a particular aspect of your business when you implement changes so they, and the rest of your audience, see that you are listening and improving thanks to your customers.
This not only shows that you actually take time to read reviews but listen to them and take action as well. And you are now a more trustworthy, personable and great business for doing so.
Before you can implement necessary changes to complaints, you’ll need to address the unhappy customer. Need help responding to negative reviews? Download our free step-by-step guide here.

Gutter and downspout repairs. Cleaning gutters is never an easy task but it’s a necessary one with spring rainfall! Try reaching into the gutter with a pair of large tongs to dig out leaves; placing a garden hose and turning on the water full-blast also works (but watch out below!).
While you’re on the ladder, inspect all spikes, straps, and clips to ensure that they are securely fastened.
Close the foundation vent covers until summer. In the Midwest and Southern states, foundation vent covers are often left open during the summer months to allow for ventilation and airflow. However, in the winter and spring, the vent covers should be closed to prevent the warm inside air from leaking out. Closing your vent covers during the winter will save on energy and heating costs.
If you have a basement, check your sump pump regularly to ensure its operation throughout the rainy season. The snow run off (or rain in warmer climates) can create an overload of moisture that your sump pump may not be able to handle. Perform monthly inspections of the pump by opening the sump pit’s cover to clear any debris out of the bottom of the pit.
Replace snow stakes. It’s a common mistake to replace the snow stakes only once a year, usually at the beginning of winter. The stakes can be the first thing to be damaged after a heavy snowfall, particularly if the payloader knocks it over!
Do not remove snow from roof. Snow removal can be the cause of more damage than the actual snowfall itself. Most buildings are designed to handle snow, and it is very rare that even a large storm will dump enough snow to cause damage that will seriously harm your homes’ roofs. Let the snow melt naturally with the April rain and warmer temperatures.
Landscaping plans. For associations in more temperate climates, the landscaping can often take a hit during the cooler months. Recover quickly by bringing in your local specialist and discussing the various shrubs and flowers that will need to be planted in spring.
Sendout paint bids for summer work. The major advantage to getting your bid requests out early is the extra time and accessibility your vendors are likely to have. Outside work requests often drop during cold weather, and getting a head start will ensure your association is at the top of their list during the summer rush!
Security enhancements. Now is the ideal time for associations to make the security enhancements they’ve been thinking about all winter. Security fencing and an alarm system are two timely projects for the post-winter months.
Replace smoke detector batteries. The batteries in all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors should be changed at least twice a year. The changing seasons are the perfect reminder to replace all batteries throughout the association.
Many maintenance projects have a double bonus – they will improve the appearance of your association while preventing costly repairs or replacements down the road. By undertaking some maintenance tasks now, you can lessen the costs that many associations rack up in the rush to recover from winter.

There is so much difference in the output between the player who thinks he is going to hit and the player who hopes he gets a hit. The difference is not only in that particular at-bat but can well affect the player’s next at-bat. Knowing and hoping usually produce two different results and both approaches usually carry over to other at-bats.
Doubt in a player's mind causes them to press and worry. This lets all the fundamentals a player has worked on fly right out the window. There cannot be any doubt, and usually when a player puts forth the proper time and work ethic toward being a good hitter, he or she has the confidence to get a hit. Does it always happen? No. But don't worry.
A committed player will come back in the next at-bat – mind clear – and find a way to make something happen for the player and for the team.
From striking out to hitting a clutch homerun is a mental adjustment. More than likely, if you think you’re going to get a hit……you’re going to get a hit!

Afghan foreign minister Salahuddin Rabbani says that a meeting will be held soon between the Afghan and Pakistan Ulema in order to establish their role in the peace process.
Afghanistan’s Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani officially opened the 4th round of the Quadrilateral Coordination Group (QCG) meeting in Kabul on Tuesday and once again called on all warring parties to join the peace process.
He said Afghanistan would welcome any group joining the process but that the Afghan government has a strong message for those who reject peace. “Security forces will act with full force against those who reject peace,” he said.
He said Afghanistan will continue to fight groups that threaten the country’s achievements. According to Tolo News.
Rabbani stated that the nation believes in peace and that its Constitution does not stop anyone from joining the peace process.
“We are working together to achieve peace,” he said adding that those who choose to join the process will be welcomed.
He stated that although Afghanistan is leading the talks, regional countries should cooperate.
Tuesday’s QCG meeting, between representatives of Afghanistan, Pakistan, China and US, will hopefully finalize a date for direct negotiations between the Afghan government and the Taliban.
Representatives from the four countries met on February 6 in Islamabad where they adopted a roadmap to facilitate direct talks between the government and the Taliban.
“Reforms and changes which have occurred within the High Peace Council have also nourished hopes for a more inclusive role of the council in Afghanistan’s peace process,” he said.
The QCG group was launched in December last year in Pakistan on the sidelines of the Heart of Asia conference. The QCG is comprised of top negotiators from Afghanistan, Pakistan, China and the US.

Our Men’s Cross Country headed to Woodward Park in Fresno to conclude their season with the CA State Finals Race. After a hard fought season, our boys took 9th out of 25 teams. Isaiah Jimenez ’19 took 29th, Nevin Afong ’19 placed 45th, and Enrique Verschoor ’19 took 46th out of 212 runners to contribute to 9th place overall. This concludes the Men’s Cross Country 2018 season. We are proud of our seniors who consistently preformed well and took the team to State. They are going to be deeply missed by the CB community and their imprint in the CB Cross Country Program will never be forgotten as shown by their two Section Banners.
Our Women’s Cross Country team did not compete this weekend. However, as the only CB female runner who qualified, Sophomore Malia Gay ’21, ran this weekend as an individual. She took 101th place out of 209, setting a new personal record for herself at 20:24. Our Women’s Cross Country has a promising future led by Gay.

If Omega offered to give you 2^n utils with probability 1/n, what n would you choose?
This problem was invented by Armok from #lesswrong. Discuss.
n=1 to maximize the probability I find out how utils are measured.
The problem here is that "learning how utils are measured" may be worth more than one util! So your actual reward would be less than one util because it would have to account for the utils from learning about utils.
On the other hand if we do not know the value of learning about utils (we could get between 0 and 1 utils of information about utils) we end up with a variable number of extra utils between 0 and 1. But if we don't know how many utils it is, we will get very little information out of it, so it's utility is likely to approach one, unless learning how utils work is worth so much that even a tiny fraction of knowledge is worth almost one util.
Okay so let's make this more concrete: Say you opt for n=1. Omega gives you $1. How much would you pay to know that $1 = 1 util? I might pay $20 for that information. So if $1 = 1 util omega has actually given me 21 utils. But Omega is giving me 21 utils, which is 20 more than he promised, a contradiction!
It might be possible to describe this sort of system using differential equations, find some equilibria, and decide where utility is like that but if what you receive ends up being something like "you decide to buy a pet dog" this really isn't that useful.
One non-contradictive way this could happen is that I pick n=1, and then Omega says: "The mere knowledge this outcome carries with it is worth 10 utils to you. I will therefore subject you to five seconds of torture to bring your total utility gained down to 1 util."
If the game only happens once, we might not want to do this. However, if this game is repeated, or if other people are likely to be faced with this decision, then it makes sense to do this the first time. Then we could try to figure out what the optimal value of n is.
To continue with the same example: suppose I found out that this knowledge is worth 10 utils to me. Then I get a second chance to bet. Since I'll never meet Omega again (and presumably never again need to use these units) this knowledge must boost my expected outcome from the bet by 10 utils. We already know that my actions in a state of ignorance are to pick n=1 which has an expected value of 1 util. So my optimal actions ought to be such that my expected outcome is 11 utils, which happens approximately when n=6 (if we can pick non-integer values for n, we can get this result more exactly).
I'm not really sure what's being calculated in that last paragraph there. Knowing the measurement of a single util seems to be valuable OUTSIDE of this problem. Inside the problem, the optimal actions (which is to say the actions with highest expected value) continues to be writing the busy beaver function as fast as possible, &c.
Also, if Omega balances out utils with positive and negative utils, why is e more likely to torture you for five seconds and tell you "this is -9 utils" than, say, torture you for 300 years then grant you an additional 300 years of life in which you have a safe nanofactory and an Iron Man suit?
It seems to me that the vast majority of actions Omega could take would be completely inscrutable, and give us very little knowledge about the actual value of utils.
A better example might be the case in which waiting for one second at a traffic light is worth one util, and after your encounter Omega disappears without a word. Omega then begins circulating a picture of a kitten on the internet. Three years later, a friend of yours links you the picture just before you leave for work. Having to tell them to stop sending you adorable pictures when you're about to leave is the same value as seeing the adorable picture, and the one second later that you get out the door is a second you do not have to spend waiting at a traffic light.
If this is how utils work then I begin to understand why we have to break out the busy beaver function... in order to get an outcome that is akin to $1000 out of this game, you would need to win around 2^20 utils (by my rough and highly subjective estimate). A 5% chance of $1000 is MUCH MUCH better than a guarantee of waiting one second less of waiting at a traffic light.
You can't outthink a tautology. You don't care about maximising the probability of finding out how utils are measured more than utils themselves by definition.
True, I am being somewhat flippant. However, I'm being upvoted more than I am when I take my time thinking about a comment, so I must be doing something right.
True, I am being somewhat flippant.
Flippant or not you are signalling - and worse, perpetuating- a common confusion about decision theory.
However, I'm being upvoted more than I am when I take my time thinking about a comment, so I must be doing something right.
"I may be wrong but I am approved of!" A troubling sentiment, albeit practical.
I probably meant that comma to be a period, then. I agree with what you said; I think that I was being flippant in ignoring that point in my first comment.
I do think that I am approved of because I'm not entirely wrong. Measuring utility is complicated. I think it's possible that a half-serious comment that touches on the issue actually contributes more than a comment that worked out all the complications in depth. Maybe it starts more conversation and makes people think more.
I probably meant that comma to be a period, then.
Muggers do not just randomly give you stuff!
Haha, you're right. I don't know why calling it Pascal's Mugging made sense to me.
The question isn't well-defined. Utility is a measure of value for different states of the world. You can't just "give x utility", you have to actually alter some state of the world, so to be meaningful the question needs to be formulated in terms of concrete effects in the world - lives saved, dollars gained, or whatever.
Humans also seem to have bounded utility functions (as far as they can be said to have such at all), so the "1 utility" needs to be defined so that we know how to adjust for our bounds.
I think this kind of criticism makes sense if only if you postulate that there's some kind of extra, physical restrictions on utilities. Perhaps humans have bounded utility functions, but do all agents? It sure seems like decision theory should be able to handle agents with unbounded utility functions. If this is impossible for some reason, well that's interesting in it's own right. To figure out why it's impossible, we first have to notice our own confusion.
Sure, but the question was "what n would you choose", not "what n would an arbitrary decision-making agent choose".
Imagine you're a papercliper, it's how many paperclips will be created.
In something more prone to failure but easier to imagine for some, imagine they are sealed boxes, each containing a few thousand unique people having different and meaningful fun together for eternity.
Not necessarily. The relationship between clips and utility is positive, not necessarily linear.
One approach would be to figure out the magnitude of the implicit risks that I take all the time. E.g. if a friend offers me a car ride that will save me 15 minutes over taking a train, I tend to take the offer, even though death rates in car rides are larger than in regional trains. While I don't assign death infinite or even maximal negative value (there are obviously many things that would be worse than death), I would very much prefer to avoid it. Whatever the exact probability is for the chance of dying when taking a car, it's low enough that it meets some cognitive cutoff for "irrelevant". I would then pick the N that gives the highest expected value while without having a probability low enough that I would ignore it when assessing the risks of every-day life.
I'm not sure of how good this approach is, but at least it's consistent.
My standard Omega response is Just Say No.
But... as people are saying, it depends entirely on how the utility function is structured. I like the idea of a 1/10th chance of getting 1024 utils, but I think that's because I have ten fingers.
well, I attempted to three box and people got mad.
Does this require carrying around a box with $1000 in it at all times, just in case Omega shows up?
While it's admittedly not that related to this problem, where it's mostly pretty clear what's meant, I'd like to also express my annoyance regarding the use of utils. Given a utility function U, the individual numbers U(A), U(B), etc., are not actually meaningful. Better would be [things that can be expressed in terms of] differences in utility, U(B)-U(A). However really all that's actually meaningful are [things that can be expressed in terms of] things of the form (U(B)-U(A))/(U(C)-U(A)). We really need to be a lot more careful with our uses of this.
Taboo utils. Tell me the offer in terms of my own preferences instead. A utility function is mathematically equivalent to a VNM-consistent agent's preferences, so this should be fine. And the preferences are the underlying physical thing, not "utils".
I think we throw the word "utils" around far too much here without actually intuiting what it means to be talking about a scale-invariant difference of two values of a function that translates from preferences over lotteries to the reals.
If I took the scenario at face value -- in other words, treating the question as one of pure mathematics -- the mathematical answer is of course BusyBeaver(me).
In reality, if I received some sensory input sequence that somehow led me to believe some relevant approximation to the offer was being truthfully made with probability greater than epsilon, then my answer would depend on the actual input sequence, because that would determine the model I had of the probability distribution of resources available to 'Omega' in the event of the offer being at least semi-truthful, and of the relationship between the offered utils and my actual utility function (which is of course itself not formally known). Depending on that input sequence, I could see myself saying "eh, 1" or "umm... the Bekenstein bound of the Hubble radius; if you would be so gracious as to correct my assumption that this is your lab account quota, I would be grateful" or a great many other things.
I presume that (me) is supposed to be some large number here. This leads to a separate question- is Omega limited to Turing computable calculations? It isn't normally relevant to what Omega can do, but I'll be slightly annoyed if I say to Omega BusyBeaver(1000) and Omega gets embarrassed for having limits.
I think he's saying the largest number he could come up with.
To the extent the question is meaningful it is mostly a prompt for the definition of 'utility'. With a sophisticated definition of 'utility' the answer is implicit in the question ("arbitrarily big or arbitrarily small"). If the 'utility' concept is taken to exclude preferences regarding risk then the question is arbitrary in the same sense that leaving out any other kind of preference from the utility function would be.
I should note that given my utility function I have a suspicion that particularly large values of n are not just physically impossible to achieve but conceptually impossible. That is, if '1 util' is taken to be "1 dust spec that I can't even feel removed from my eye right now" then even infinite universes could not satisfy me given n of 3^^^3, a googolplex or even a googol. 'Utility' is unbounded but there just isn't anything in preferences that scales that far.
I'd spend as long as I could trying to find the highest possible n.
I've considered this problem with just n utils. Basically, pick the highest finite number you could. And consider how much you missed out on because you didn't square it.
I've considered this problem with just n utils. Basically, pick the highest finite number you could.
If in doubt write really big numbers that look kind of like "9 -> 9 -> 9 -> 9 -> 9". Is there a standard operation notation available that is more ridiculously excessive than Conway Chained Arrow? Preferably one that is easy to express rapidly in a format accepted by Omega.
I suppose I am then faced with a new problem, that of maximising the number that I can express to Omega. Do I stand there chanting Conway Chains at Om in all my waking hours until I die? Do I engage in or fund mathematical research into and popularization of ways in which to more efficiently express stupid numbers? Perhaps I ought to dedicate my entire existence to creating an FAI which would then necessarily dedicate all accessible entropy in the future light cone to answering Omega for me or through a post-human me.
Here I encounter a recursion. It seems that the rational response would be the "attempt to create an FAI to facilitate answering with a bigger n" for exactly the same reason that a big n is good in the first place. A stupidly excessively big payoff makes a tiny chance worthwhile.
Pretty much anything involving the busy beaver function. See also Scott Aaronson's "Who can name the bigger number?"
Similarly this thread and this Wondermark, and sort of implied depending on the position you take on The Lifespan Dilemma.
Thanks for the reminder that the intention of the post is about doing math, and the problem of doing it.
Comment to upvote because I'm karma-greedy. And the dollar and util questions are really quite different; one is about the maths of infinities and the other about discounting large sums of money.
Also, I got the ideas for both questions, I just didn't think anyone could have missed them and were slightly more curious about the money one so I asked that one first.
I believe you meant to say "probability 1/n".
Depends on what a util is. The probability of an event is a pretty well-defined concept, but what a util means to me is free-floating without something to compare it to. If one util is a slice of Wonder bread on an empty stomach for a well-nourished person, then let's go with n = 10.
Why does it matter? How exactly are you choosing n?
Well, imagine if a util were like ten years of constant joy. In that case, I'd rather have n = 1. Similarly, if a util is like finding a penny, I really don't care what n is, but I may as well go with a pretty large one so that if I do "win", I actually notice it. I chose n = 10 because a 10% chance for 1024 slices of Wonder bread on an empty stomach sounds much better than a sure shot for one slice of Wonder bread when I'm hungry (I'd barely even notice that), and also much better than a tiny chance for some ridiculously high number of utilons (I almost certainly won't be able to enjoy it). n = 9 and n = 11 would also be okay choices; I didn't arrive at 10 analytically.
The problem here is that a "util" (insofaras this is meaningful by itself) isn't like any one consistent thing, because by definition it isn't subject to diminishing marginal utility, etc.
I know 1024 slices of Wonder bread isn't 1024 times as useful to a regular hungry person as one slice of Wonder bread. The first slice is the one which the util is defined as, then all the additional utils would be like "something else" that gives exactly as much enjoyment, or just that exact amount of enjoyment but 1023 more times.
I suppose that in theory one should pick an n that approaches infinity. It's an affront to our instincts, because we don't have any psychological basis for rewards for which we should not be risk averse, but utility can't decrease in marginal utility.
A high likelihood of some small utility isn't worth even a tiny chance of becoming this guy.
This would depend on whether Omega gave me some reference for what a util was worth, and in what currency it would give me utils. If Omega pays out in dollars, then I only need enough to reach escape velocity (meaning, be able to give up my day job). Then I can generate more utils myself.
This reasoning is like saying, "If Omega offers to give you 2^n additional IQ points with probability 1/n, what n would you choose?" n=6 would be enough for me to start giving myself IQ points.
From the definition of utility, I should prefer the maximum of the function (2^n)/n where n>=1 (the offer is not possible in n<1). That function keeps increasing with n, so I would choose n=infinity, or the maximum value if there was one. However, humans do not have well-defined utility functions, and there is probably a rough maximum to the amount of possible total utility (as in, there is probably nothing that I would prefer an infinitesimal chance of happening than some arbitrary small but positive and guaranteed utility).

Hello my name is Aaron. I started DJing when I was 17. Since then I’ve been getting more interested in the craft and saved up to get more equipment including speakers, lights, and wireless microphone. I started getting involved with the wedding scene in 2017, and I also do block parties, graduation parties, picnics, and so on. The most important thing in DJing is to make sure the client is getting what he or she wants. I work for the client after all, and I want to make sure the client is having one of the best experiences of his or her life.
Aside from DJing, I also play musical instruments including guitar and piano. I also do music composing for independent films and tv shows filmed around Chicago. I’m also big into comic books (I had an opportunity to meet Stan Lee at a convention in Chicago) my favorites include Batman, Superman, Flash, Spider Man, Daredevil, Hulk, Hellboy, and so on. I’m also a big basketball fan. My favorite players include Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Shaq, Kobe, and Allen Iverson. I am very big on entertainment, and making a living in entertainment is a dream come true.

HubSpot went public in October 2014, validating CEO Dharmesh Shah’s focus on content and inbound marketing. Here, he shares his insights on pricing, team composition and enterprise versus SMB customers.
Over the next few days, DataFox will summarize the SaaStr 2016 panels. If you miss the tactical theater or strategy stage, are networking on the ground, or didn’t get a chance to attend this great conference, we’ve got you covered.
MBA’s aren’t a surefire indicator of failure (we at DataFox don’t think so - our CEO and head of product are both business school grads).
Be flexible around pricing, and don’t cut yourself off from revenue streams.
Find the customer success metrics that work for you.
Shah’s formula for success looks like this: 1%*1/(2n), where n is the number of MBA’s on the early team. HubSpot’s entire executive team had graduated business school; its success was pretty darn improbable. And they made some mistakes along the way.
Startups, Shah says, should focus on doing one thing well. HubSpot did the exact opposite. In an attempt to eliminate market risk (rather than product risk), they started asking prospects to pay money. They charged $250 a month across the board, which eliminated the possibility of charging Fortune 500 companies more. They wanted to get evidence that people would pay for their product, even if it wasn’t that good.
Now, they’re using a flexible pricing structure, and more than a product, they’ve developed not just a brand, but a movement. The new narrative was, “take everything you know about marketing. It’s wrong.” They essentially created “inbound marketing” - a risky strategy, Shah admits, that can be expensive and offers a low probability of success. They’re still on the fence on whether creating the “inbound marketing” category was a good idea.
It takes more than technology to build something big - you also need a philosophy.
At least 100 people in the room will do crazy things and build a $100m ARR company.
HubSpot developed a customer happiness prediction algorithm that could tell them, beyond just cancellations or non-cancellations, whether their customers genuinely got value. They used the Net Promoter Score to determine customer satisfaction, with so-so results. What was better, they realized, was behavioral data - login recency, employee churn, and other factors.

The term “Now you see, now you don’t” maybe the best way to describe Fayetteville emcee and Rap’s groundhog J. Cole. After 2013’s Born Sinner, Cole began to submerge in the depths of family life. Reappearing only to cause tsunami-like waves in Hip-Hop. The internet won’t let us forget that the Dreamville rapper went Platinum with no features on the Grammy nominated 2014 Forest Hills Drive.
Memes and jokes aside, the 4 Your Eyez Only Tour was worth every penny. Cole always delivers a superior show, and this one was no exception. Cole’s jumpsuit and the prison yard stage really helped to contextualize the album. When you see Cole in a prison suit rapping about love and fatherhood, it shows that Black men are more than just the “thugs” the media portrays us as.
Having been to a couple of J. Cole concerts before, I know he’s not one to really work the stage. He’s more of a stationary, center stage performer. This was my only negative critique of the show. With the stage in the middle of the arena, I expected him to perform to all sides of the stage and crowd. However, he primarily focused on the front of the stage leaving those sitting behind him, myself included, to watch the back of his dreads for the majority of the concert.
Due to an extensive catalogue, Cole wasn’t limited to performing only singles and hit records. No songs got the crowd more hyped than “G.O.M.D.” and “No Role Modelz” off of 2014 Forest Hills Drive. Hearing Born Sinner’s “Forbidden Fruit” transition into “Neighbors” was another standout from the evening.
Unfortunately, the U.S. leg of the tour ended yesterday and once the tour is completely over, we can expect Cole to disappear until he’s ready to bless us with his presence again. If you missed the tour, check out our photo recap down below.
Great photos! I love J. Cole!

Lamp Post Inn Nj #2 Lamp Post Diner, North Wildwood, NJ, 2008.
Lamp Post Inn Nj was published on July 1, 2018 at 3:15 pm. It is posted at the Lamp category. Lamp Post Inn Nj is labelled with Lamp Post Inn Nj, Lamp, Post, Inn, Nj..
Before speaking about Lamp Post Inn Nj, we'd like to speak about some recommendations on timber flooring colors. Black and dark shades are a preferred selection for painters' galleries, contemporary stylish and rooms. Polluted traditional brown color or organic timber which will be great in the event you desire a classic look. Color depth and striking (numerous shades-of reddish: cherry and ash Jatoba or stained while in the same coloring) that is ideal for professional rooms, offices as well as other huge spots where the ground becomes a fundamental component of the decor.
As the Lamp Post Inn Nj images and online space planner can give a broad concept of exactly what the ultimate result might be, there's no greater way to decide the color of the ground instead of taking a look at the test site in natural light.
Brown hot platinum and reddish timber hues will make your area comfortable. White and ground that is grey could make your space spacious. If the capability to conceal a little dent and scratches are a must opt for normal shaded wood flooring in matt end. Remember that the colors should enhance distinction and eachother. The ground can not have similar colors as surfaces and furniture.

Born in Barcelona in 1948, Dr. Eduard Estivill is a doctor who is well known as a sleep expert. Author of numerous publications, he also has an artistic side which his band Falsterbo brings out in him.
You were very young when you received a scholarship to go study in the United States, where you came across the hippy movement and folk music. Was it this time spent abroad that cultivated your musical side with Falsterbo? How do you remember that period?
In the year 1966, my parents believed that it was important for me to learn English. I couldn't speak a single word (in fact, we only studied French at school), and my parents didn’t have the money for it. So, the only way that I could learn English was to get a scholarship somewhere. And after making efforts to get that scholarship, they sent me to a small town on the coast of California. I was there almost two years taking high school classes and the first few years of college... And that’s where I learnt everything I know about this type of music as a hobby. I completely immersed myself in American life, and obviously I learnt English, which has been so useful to me throughout my professional life. Logically, when I came back to Spain in ‘67 almost no other young people of my age could speak English like I could. There were very few and this opened many doors for me. First, as one of my hobbies: music - I translated songs with other friends and we’re still singing them nowadays. English was also a big help during my degree: I was able to do presentations in anglophone countries and it really has given me so many opportunities.
Why did you decide to study Medicine? Did your family influence your decision in any way?
Not at all. It was basically because when I came back from the United States, I was in contact with a group of Boy Scouts who were helping at a school for children with cerebral palsy. I experienced that part of my life with all the hopeful anticipation of an 18 or 19 year old, and I thought I could study medicine, more specifically, neuropaediatrics, having seen the needs of these individuals... And that’s how I made my decision. I studied medicine and then I undertook this specialism. To specialise in neuropaediatrics, first I had to do paediatrics at the Vall d’Hebron hospital, and then neurophysiology, a subject where we mainly carried out electroencephalographies on children. This links to why I later got into sleep medicine. At the hospital, I did tests on children, new-borns and very small kids... If we wanted the tests to work out properly, the children had to sit still—you can't do this test if the child is moving, just like you can’t do an electrocardiography if the person is moving. So, what we did (because the nurses taught me to do it) was sing all types of songs to them and wait until the children fell asleep, as we couldn’t give them any medication to make them go over. That’s where my interest in sleep came from. I leant about the sleep patterns of new-borns, I published work and I was able to go to Paris to study sleep patterns of new-borns with top specialists. The paediatrics and neurophysiology specialism at the Vall d’Hebron hospital lasted 8 years. After that, I got a position as assistant doctor in the Sant Joan de Déu hospital. I started in the neuropaediatrics service, basically overseeing the epilepsy, sleep and electroencephalography section. Then I got the chance to travel to the United States again, to a very important hospital in terms of the topic of sleep: the Henry Ford Hospital. So, at that time I decided to leave the hospital and pursue sleep medicine. When I came back I started up the department and I was lucky to be a pioneer in the field. At that time, not one single private unit existed, so we were the first to embark on this kind of work which turned out to be very rewarding, especially for those of us who worked on it, because it’s a specialist area where we can really help people.
Describe your day-to-day routine. What do you like most about your profession?
I’m so enthusiastic about what I do. In sleep medicine we can treat a wide range of problems. However, I also combine it with my hobbies. I really like sport and every day I try to go to my sport’s club: Barcino. I either play tennis or go to the gym. I also play golf from time to time, take part in a class the odd day of the week, and I balance it with guitar, music and songs. Which means I do plenty! Right now —now that I’m 70—I spread my activities out a little. On Monday and Tuesday, I do doctor's visits and on the rest of the days I combine all my activities with other professional work including writing articles, doing interviews, conducting scientific studies etc. We also have a foundation—the Estivill Sleep Foundation—, and we are doing really interesting things with regard to sleep and athletes. All these activities fill up my time and make me really happy too.
Is there any relation between sleep disorders and eye conditions?
Nowadays we know that there are many disorders related to sleep. And a long time ago we learnt that, for example, cardiac problems have to do with poor breathing at night (apnoea). However, we recently undertook a very interesting piece of work with Dr. Javier Elizalde. Some years ago, we were indeed given a prize for what is called floppy eyelid syndrome, a condition we see in the eyelids of individuals who, when they snore, suffer apnoea. This means there is friction between this eyelid and the snoring movement, leading to this condition. Along with Dr. Canut, we have made contributions related to glaucoma and sleep conditions. It has been proven that in people with apnoea, as they lack oxygen—because one of the consequences of apnoea is not enough oxygen enters our brain—, some of the brain's structures, like the eye, may suffer hypoxia, a lack of oxygen to the eye, which may cause, or have to do with glaucoma. And this is a topic that still needs to be studied. We have some research pending which may be of interest in the near future.
You worked with the Barraquer Foundation on an expedition to Africa. What was the highlight of your experience?
It was truly rewarding. One of the doctors, Gorka Martínez Grau, invited me to take part in the expedition as a paediatrician. We went to Malawi to work. They had already got into the routine of carrying out check-ups on people, and above all, visiting children with eye problems in order to diagnose them, then doing checks to determine if they had any retina conditions, myopia, astigmatisms or long-sightedness. These situations make you very grounded. You begin to think that you are in a world where everything is very simple: people eat, move around and love each other. Over there, sure, they love each other, but they eat little and move poorly. Fifty per cent of children die before the age of 5. It's dreadful. Plus, many contract malaria or AIDS, which means the impact is greater. When you go home you value what you have a lot more; but it creates a trauma in your mind. I had a really tough time when I got back, because I thought: what in the world are you doing visiting people who want for nothing while there are children dying of hunger in those countries? Coming back is hard, because you get so involved when you are there—at least I did—that this feeling of knowing you are so privileged and you don't appreciate it, makes you reflect on life a lot more.

In Lemmings 2: The Tribes, the first real sequel for Lemmings (sometimes Oh No! More Lemmings is considered a sequel but it's only a standalone level pack), the player has to guide as much lemmings as possible through the levels. The main difference with Lemmings, is that there are 12 tribes of lemmings, every tribe starts with 60 lemmings.
As in Lemmings, also in Lemmings 2: The Tribes, the lemmings still walk in the direction they are facing and need the help from the player to guide them from the entrance towards the exit to finish a level.
The player is awarded a bronze, silver or gold medal after the player finishes a level. When the player finishes all levels of a tribe, the player is awarded a piece of a large medal. It depends on his achievements during the tribe levels if the piece is bronze, silver or gold.

Evie has Struggled lately but her commitment to riding and competing hasn’t wavered. A fabulous show at Arena UK-ESUK resulted in some fantastic places and wins in her section (forces equine). Daisy jumped clear in all 3 classes- really looking after Evie who rode brilliantly with this new partner. Evie was determined to attend the show, despite lack of her normal transport, which is key to Evie’s health regime. One night sleeping in the trailer was a price worth paying and worth every second.
Unfortunately Evie was admitted to Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham a couple of days later during a routine clinic appointment. She was struggling to keep down even the pump feed which helps to supplement the little food she can tolerate due to gastroparesis. This was a huge blow as Evie was due to travel to Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire for the British Showjumping National Championships.
Not to be put off, she requested permission to compete and she was granted afternoon leave, as the Championships were being held only an hour away from the hospital. However whilst her horse was on the way to the show, Evies hopes were crushed as she was getting ready to leave – a brain scan was requested due to additional symptoms (loss of peripheral vision in the left eye and pain), so Evie had to stay admitted at the hospital. Thankfully the scan was clear- huge relief! Evie now has a new feeding plan and after some weight gain she has been discharged after spending 2 weeks in hospital.
Evie has many plans to compete as soon as possible and although exhausted initially, she has had some great training sessions on Daisy this week so they are looking forward to getting back out on the show circuit! Evies other young mare, Breeze, has provided great therapy and they have been doing lots of jumping exercises to improve Evie’s balance.
Both of Evie’s horses are powered by Global Herbs products, MoveFreePlus and GlobalVite.

EL wire, or electroluminescent wire, is a flexible wire coated in phosphor. Apply the appropriate voltage and it lights up! It looks a lot like a thin flexible neon tube. They come in many bright colors (check below for other colors) and can be driven pretty easily with an inverter.
This particular wire glows blue and is 3m (almost 10 feet) in length, 2.3mm in diameter and is terminated with a JST PH connector.

CARBON is the building block of life as we know it, but this image reveals that the element is also a universe unto itself.
Artist Charles Lindsay created this magnified image by suspending carbon in water and manipulating it using electricity, vibration, temperature changes and infrared light – a process he calls “a hybrid between a kind of drawing and photography”.
“Surface tension, microscopic dirt, ambient humidity and temperature play a role in the final results,” he says. The image appears in his book, Carbon, published last year.
Lindsay came across the intriguing patterns of carbon suspensions while experimenting with photograms, a method of producing images with light-sensitive materials instead of a camera. He placed his carbon suspensions on clear substrates and then digitised them using an image scanner.
Lindsay, who studied exploration geology before becoming an artist, was the first artist in residence at the SETI Institute, which hunts for extraterrestrial intelligence, and is now the director of this art programme.
He wonders whether distant, alien worlds could harbour life made of silicon or some other element – places where the carbon that is so vital on Earth would be just a footnote.

The Electronic Reserves system at Gettysburg College is based on the idea of providing library reserve materials in an electronic form that can be delivered to students across the World Wide Web. These materials are normally standard paper reserves that are manually scanned into a computer for electronic storage and delivery.
Electronic Reserves were first offered on the Gettysburg College Campus in the second half of the 1997 Spring semester. This was a trial system to test the proposed implementation and software. The pilot project involved a total of five departments and six classes. Use, based on informal discussions with faculty and review of access records were limited, but the system itself functioned as expected.
In the Fall Semester of 1997 the Electronic Reserves system was made widely available. Currently there are seven departments and thirteen classes actively utilizing the system.
This study will determine the effectiveness of Electronic at Gettysburg College and whether the quality and level of service provided is sufficient to meet the current needs of the users and what changes and improvements should be made to obtain maximum benefit from the system.
Determine why did students use the system.
Determine why students did not use the system.
Compare usage of system with time required and expenses incurred in acquiring, scanning and organizing materials.
Determine what improvements or changes need to be made to the system.
There is a unique opportunity to complete such a study because electronic reserves are delivered on the Gettysburg Campus through the use of a new, secure web based system (CNAV). This tool provides the unique ability to access more information than would normally be available to a reserves package and will allow for a much wider variety of studies and comparisons to be made.
CNAV is a web based computer system that has been designed for the students, faculty, staff and administrators of Gettysburg College. Its primary purpose is to foster communications between these different groups as well a providing a central source of information for the campus. The tool is comprised of a number of highly specialized and customized search engines that allow similarities to be drawn between courses, events, people, groups of people and variety of miscellany. Student can log into the system in a matter of a few minutes review their class schedule, find upcoming events they would be interested in, access their transcript and financial records, and access on-line Electronic Reserves.
The implementation of electronic reserves on the CNAV system was conceived as part of a larger plan to provide students with one central location to gather information about their current and future courses. With CNAV students have the ability, on one web screen, to access all the relevant information about their courses including: instructor name & email; class rosters including photos; profile of class based on major, minor and interests; course home page; course syllabus; course reading list; electronic reserves. In order to maintain copyright compliance the ability of students to view reserve materials is restricted to those students currently enrolled in the designated class. This information is kept up to date on a daily basis via updates from the colleges main computer system.

So here it goes, my first literary blog. First of many, hopefully. Since this is the first of my Top 5 Tuesdays, I figured I would start with the beginning - where I started and where I began to learn what I love to do today. In no particular order, here are the Top 5 photographers who have influenced me the most.
I remember looking at a friend's wedding photos 7 years ago, and just being in awe. I quickly realized that wedding photography was no longer like our parents' wedding photos. There was style, there were cool angles, and there was fun. There was ART! It wasn’t just line-ups of groomsmen under a tree or bridesmaids holding flowers behind their backs! I remember seeing a photo of the groom laughing while at the alter and shots of real emotion between the couple. Special moments quietly captured. Stec is really good at catching that sort of thing and I was hooked. Instantly I was attracted to lifestyle photography and immediately started searching for my first DSLR camera. I ended up buying a Canon XT, which I learned on and quickly outgrew.
Much before getting into wedding photography, there was a bit of photography curiosity in me. I would make time to look at photos my long time friend, Rob, whom I have known since Grade 4, would take on his many canoe trips up North. You’ll notice by the photo I have included, that his genre isn’t weddings. It’s the wild outdoors and more recently cityscapes (at night, of course). He spends countless hours at night taking photos of the stars and, if he’s lucky, some northern lights and glowing city streets. It is shooting lanscapes and skyscapes that is the hobby part of photography for me. It really helps me enjoy the gift I have been given, outside of the day to day stuff that I am blessed to be able to shoot. I’ve learned a lot of technical skills from him and he’s the guy who pushed Lightroom (God’s gift to photo editors) on me. Thanks for that, Rob! We’ve gone out on evenings together just to shoot local scenery, and I always come away having learned some new trick or something neat. By the way, all his stuff is available for purchase. Be sure to check out his site!
By far the guy whom I talk shop the most with. We’ve had countless text conversations, facebook messaging sessions, and spent hours chatting after church about our shared passion. Over the past year, the shooting style that charms him most has really made me take a new approach to my style to make my craft even more my own. I look at my subjects totally different now. He has a great thirst for the art, and he also understands the whole business side of things. If I had to pin it down to one thing that influences me the most about his stuff, it's how scene simplicity and being minimal are your friend. Oh, and his compositions are great. He’ll tell you that he knows nothing yet about the trade, but I beg to differ. I look forward to learning our craft and honing it together over the coming years.
This guy is awesome. Mike B actually turned me onto him, so I guess that’s a another point for him. Gene has an amazing taste that I don’t think anyone can duplicate. He sees opportunities differently. He shoots in film so its just fun to look at his images. The tones he comes up with are my favourite. It’s Gene’s attention to the mood and the story of the event that inspire me. He’ll be able to capture a whole wedding reception’s mood and feel in one amazing shot. If I can learn how to compose a photograph like this guy, I’d be a very happy man.
all photos posted in this entry property of respective photographers as listed.

The sixth MWC Shanghai will open from June 28th ~ July 1st, 2017 with the theme of THE HUMAN ELEMENT. ARM will showcase how leading brands in China and across the Asia Pacific region are spearheading IoT innovation and commercial IoT devices at the event.
ARM executives, including Michael Horne, deputy GM and VP of Marketing and Sales for IoT, will be available in person to discuss this momentum of exciting products at MWC Shanghai 2017.
The quest for new and unique customer touch-points has been the holy grail for consumer goods companies since the dawn of e-commerce. IoT allows brands to move to fulfilling consumer needs in real time, or even in a pro-active manner by anticipating customer needs or wishes . However, customer satisfaction doesn’t necessarily come with bombarding potential goods and services to a consumer’s needs and hence with mobile, digital commerce trends have looked for moments that shape ‘commerce as conversation’.
One of the most exciting opportunities enabled by IoT is offering these moments through intelligence and particularly voice-enabled AI in the home, where such conversations are most prevalent.
47% of all voice-AI capable devices by 2021 are expected to be in Asia Pacific (Ovum, 2017).
The trick is in identifying this opportunity, and what is needed to make it successful, early. Leading brands such as Baidu and RDA are forming a strong ecosystem of devices that offer consumers peace of mind with robust security and connectivity while still being able to differentiate on affordability and functionality.
IoT enabled devices using mbed OS 5, Baidu’s DuerOS ecosystem offer one-stop intelligent voice interaction solutions that take advantage of the most efficient compute processing, built-for-IoT security features and quicker time to market.
Since the advent of e-commerce, retail growth has become closely linked with how consumers can access goods and services with increasing convenience. Today, our most trusted interactions are delivered through smartphones and mobile devices. To drive meaningful and more satisfying interactions, the growth of IoT Beacons is offering new opportunities to retail.
IoT Beacons are expected to grow at over 24% year over year, capturing a sizeable share of the global retail IoT market that is expected to grow to USD 94.44 billion by 2025 (Grand View Research, 2017).
Driven by beacon technology for pre-tailing, payments, and post-payments operations, the stage for lots of applications driven on BLE beacons is set.
Developers can capitalize on this growth by taking advantage of the robust BLE support in ARM mbed OS 5, and ARM mbed for Eddystone released by Google.
Ease of using the same application between devices using different connectivity through a choice of supported platforms and modules.
This is allowing visionary companies building on ARM mbed OS 5 to rapidly create new IoT solutions that transform the human experience in more markets in exciting ways.
Choice spanning modules, 85+ supported silicon platforms and interoperable components are all key to getting end-products quickly to market. These have huge potential to extend the human experience beyond home and retail.
Interested in keeping in touch with the latest commercial IoT devices? Find out more about the latest ARM mbed OS 5.5 and join the wave of successful IoT devices commercially available. Follow @ARMmbed or via the hashtag #ARMmbed on Twitter.

1. Eking out growth in an uncertain economy.
After a few years of abysmal performance, CEOs are focused on growth in 2011, and the $64 billion question will be how to boost profits, talent, trust and loyalty in a low-growth to no-growth environment.
"Organizations need to build new muscles, and to do this, their leaders must focus on how they can alter their current business models to focus on unexpected future trends," says Jim Haudan, CEO of Root Learning.
The last thing a CEO wants is to leave his company vulnerable to another economic downturn. One solution, suggests James Pajakowski, executive vice president of risk solutions at Protiviti: "Invest in innovations that provide a foundation for the future, while protecting the business from exposure to financial crisis over the next few years."
Phil Lieberman, president and CEO of Lieberman Software sums up the dilemma: "There are dual possibilities -- a double dip recession and strong growth in 2011. Do I plan for growth or defensive economic planning?"
2. Preparing for -- and reducing -- employee flight.
"Get ready for musical chairs," warns management consultant Nancy Keene. As the economy improves, history suggests that turnover will increase. Dealing with disillusioned, overworked employees must be a priority.
"Unmotivated, unfocused or uncommitted workers are a liability. They jeopardize the corporate brand and threaten survival and profitability of a company," says Terry Hawkins, founder of business training firm People in Progress. To reduce those risks, showing real CEO appreciation can be a smart strategy. Hawkins recommends that CEOs try making unannounced visits to work sites or impromptu telephone calls to line employees. Face-to-face communication with staff, whether casual chats or more organized events, helps everyone feel like they're being heard.
Equally important, to retain top performers, create and communicate plans for their professional progression, and make sure your company is paying salaries at or above the market standard.
3. Acknowledging the customer is boss.
"Accept that the balance of power between buyer and seller has changed forever. Customers will call more shots and set more agendas in 2011 than ever," says Ernan Roman, author of Voice of the Customer Marketing. The economy and unprecedented customer empowerment due to the Web and social media have significantly increased customer's demands for relevance and value. "Identify how your company can provide clearly defined, competitively differentiating value and service, at two critical points: at the point of purchase and throughout the customer's life cycle," says Roman.
In a world of eroding customer loyalty, customer retention must be a top-down, high priority, companywide mission, explains Robert Bloom, author, The New Experts: Win Today's Newly Empowered Customer at Their 4 Decisive Moments.
4. Surrendering to social media.
The power of social media is enormous, and it effects every aspect of a company, says Jeff Platt, CEO of Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park. "Do not fear social media, embrace it. It cannot be ignored. Monitor it, be proactive," he adds.
Next year will start to open the door to a more generalized understanding of social media, says Stephen Harvill, a consultant with Creative Ventures. "Companies banned from playing in this field by fear and legal compliance issues will figure out ways to dip into this communication phenomenon. The key will be drafting responsible social media company and employee practices," he adds.
The big winners will be those who harness social media to drive sales, corporate alliances, partnerships and other business development initiatives. "Social media can become a strategic avenue to communicate to your key stakeholders," says Peter Boni, CEO of Safeguard Scientifics.
5. Keeping pace with regulation.
"No one is sure what will happen to health insurance rates and competition as the new health care law takes effect. The same holds true for the [financial regulation] bill, since many of the rules still need to be written," says Michael Bisceglia, president of jewelry retailer Stauer. Quick adaptation to the evolving regulatory environment will be essential to success next year.
Regulatory changes are also spurring corporate board members to get serious. "Now directors are speaking up and striving for results. But in many cases, the evolving relationship between the company's executives and the board has not found the right symmetry," points out Linda Henman, president of Henman Performance Group. Smart CEOs, she says, will find ways to work more effectively with their boards.
And global regulatory guidelines are even more daunting. "CEOs must pay attention to the regulatory environment because the process of staying in compliance and managing the increasing costs of compliance become more challenging as the complexity of the environment increases," says Pajakowski.
6. Protecting against increased risks.
The other "R" word rolling off executives' tongues is risk. Since 2010 was the first year of the SEC rule on proxy disclosure about the board's role in risk oversight, some CEOs will be challenged to reevaluate their companies' approach to risk oversight and management processes to ensure they are formalized and effective, says Maureen Errity, director of the Deloitte Center for Corporate Governance.
From a strategic standpoint, she says, CEOs will have to think about risk as integral to enterprise management. "Taking the time to work with [the] management team about strategic risks and thinking outside the box about risks is key. CEOs should weigh risks that could cause the business to fail, as well as risks that could create the most value and competitive edge for the organization," says Errity.
International markets present clear opportunities -- if you can take advantage of them fast enough. "CEOs are dealing with a time crunch: There is a sense that the window may be closing. Develop a clear, global growth plan. Most importantly, don't assume the U.S. way of doing business always will transfer internationally," says Richard Davis, author of The Intangibles of Leadership.
Know too, that in a global environment, it's harder to keep a competitive cost structure, maintain customer loyalty or increase speed-to-market of innovation, among other issues.
"Companies may need to rethink offshore strategies due to political risk, positioning in the BRIC [Brazil, Russia, India and China] markets, costs increases in China, India and in other countries," adds Pajakowski.
Additionally, some point to the euro and instability in the eurozone as hurdles. "The eurozone is still a problem," says professor Herb Kaufman of the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. "The current eurozone model is unsustainable."
Despite all that, these days companies have to think globally. "By not increasing your vision of the market you will be limiting your sales potential," says Harvill.
Protecting the reputation and image of companies and brands will be a growing priority. "WikiLeaks and similar incidents have shown that merely allowing for the market, or customers, to establish the reputation for your company is not enough. It takes a strategic approach to external and internal corporate communications to lay the foundation for a transparent and ethical company," says Gary McCormick, chairman and CEO of the Public Relations Society of America.
Reportedly, corporations will be WikiLeaks' next big targets. "CEOs will need to understand and effectively use strategic communications and reputation management to properly respond to and address the rising reputational risks that companies now face," he says.
What's the best defense? "Strong customer service, high product quality and now, engaged and proactive social media, can mitigate the impacts of a crisis," he adds. Another strategy, suggests Stephen Miles, head of search firm Heidrick & Struggles' Leadership Advisory Services, is a serious corporate policy of social responsibility, which can serve to mitigate negative press.
9. Keeping up with technology.
Clients are increasingly mobile and tech savvy: They want information on their terms.
"Communication technology continues to fragment. This year alone saw the mass and financial services adoption of tablet computers. CEOs who don't change their company to adopt to evolving technology will be left behind and disengaged from their clients," says Glen Manchester, CEO of Thunderhead, a communications management company.
10. Staying ahead of the competition.
Competition is everywhere. "If they are not direct competitors, they are indirect. They may be in the building next to you, or a click away. Always stand above the competition," says Platt.
Be innovative, says Steve Baker, president of Eyefinity/OfficeMate. "With so many emerging technologies, identify the ones that will make a positive and measurable impact for customers."
Innovation is also a solution for maintaining momentum in a slow-growth market, adds Charley Polachi, partner at Polachi, an executive search firm.
With all these items on CEOs' agendas, 2011 in the corporate world's executive offices will be anything but dull.

The history of Switzerland is, at best, elusive. It is that way seemingly on purpose, with its origins murky. Its origin as a confederacy, we are told, originated with a man named William Tell who supplied the spark for independence. Yet most scholars say his story is a myth. The Swiss have their own version of a Declaration of Independence. It was said to be lost but was actually hidden for centuries. There is a reason the story of the origins of Switzerland as a country has been kept secret. It has everything to do with the Knights Templar resurrection.
On May 18, 1291, the last stronghold of the Templars in the Holy Lands fell to Al-ashraf Khalil. This was the fortress at Acre. The entire reason for the existence of the Templars was lost in that last battle. Instead of a fighting force defending the Holy Lands from Islamic control, the Knights Templar were now just a bloated business. The proverbial writing was on the wall.
With no sacred mission, the Templars were now simply a corporation free from taxes and answering to no one. They succeeded only in incurring the wrath of everyone with whom they dealt. Many ports, objecting to the monopoly of Templar fleets, refused their ships. Their vast banking system, stretching from London to Jerusalem, held the jewels of the royals and the promissory notes of kings. Having introduced the concept of branch banking, this institution would be the world’s first international bank.
The order, the beneficiary of so much land from so many donors, paid no property taxes. Their “haughtiness” annoyed their neighbors who did pay taxes on their own properties. It had a competitive advantage in any business that it pursued. The greatest mistake the Templars made, however, was to refuse the French king as a member and to believe they had him under their thumb. King Phillip owed the order a great sum of money, and his inability to tax Templar properties forced him to raise taxes on the populace. He often had to flee his own people and at least once the mob chased him into the Paris Temple. The Templars, however, were not his friend. The king decided if you can’t join them, beat them. He enlisted the Pope by claiming they were heretics.
Having made enemies of the Pope and King Philip IV, the Templars had the French army to contend with, but even so they had much going for them. As the largest intelligence operation in the world, they were tipped off that the French King was planning to arrest the Templars and steal their wealth. They also had an exit strategy. This became obvious years later when Templar treasure was loaded on their fleet before it sailed from La Rochelle to Scotland, and when their cavalry units simply moved to Spain and Portugal where they were restructured as “new” orders including the Knights of Santiago and the Knights of Christ, still flying the same Templar flag. Columbus had married into a Knights of Christ family and continued to fly the Templar flag nearly 200 years after their perceived demise. In all, eighty percent of the Templars avoided arrest when King Phillip went on the attack.
Even before that, though, the Templar’s exit strategy called for an independent country of their own making. On August 1, 1291, ten weeks after Acre fell, three, small regions of the future Switzerland signed a unification pact. These were the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden. It would be Schwyz that would later give its name to the country of Switzerland.
The flag of the Swiss canton of Schwyz that gave its name to the country is basically an inversion of the Templar flag. It is a white cross on a red field. This was a smaller cross than the Templar cross, but when the country united, it became a large white cross on a red field. Much later, battle flags would have a red field with a white cross. Within the white cross was a sword. Other symbols and emblems, such as keys and lambs, were used by the Templars and are incorporated into the flags of Switzerland.
Before 1291, the future country was not at all unified. Switzerland had no shared religion, no shared language, or even a common dynasty. In Roman times they were considered part of the Roman Empire and somewhat Christian, but Germanic hordes from the north brought pagan religion and Germanic language.
As Rome imploded, the territory that would become Switzerland was under a handful of minor family dynasties that mostly came apart. Circa 1300, no one expected the small towns and thinly settled valleys to unite or form cantons or states. The Holy Roman Empire decided these were its property but asked only for taxes. Modern historians concur there was no such thing as Swiss, or Switzerland, before 1400.
That changed in 1291 when a document known as the Bundesbrief united Uri Schwyz and Unterwalden. Representatives would convene at a mountain meadow on Lake Lucerne. The forest cantons, as they were known, would sign a compact of mutual assistance. Folktales record the white-coated, red-crossed knights that pledged assistance to the Swiss Confederacy as it would be known. The document itself was like the American Declaration of Independence, and while it might be expected to have been regarded as sacred; it wasn’t. Instead it was simply lost until the nineteenth century. Or at least kept secret. Then when the expected assault on the Templar existence finally came the Templars were ready.
On Oct 13, 1307, the command went out to arrest the Knights Templar. That day and in the weeks to follow, 600 out of 3000 knights in France were arrested. These were just knights. Each had a retinue of squires, servants, and aides who were not arrested. So, the Templar organization still had thousands who were not apprehended. Some had been traveling regularly through the Alps to Switzerland, which had once been a province of the Merovingian kings and where the small city of Sion once held the Merovingian mint.
Swiss Alpine passes and its central location brought trade through the country and allowed craftsmen access to markets outside of their country. Trade fairs and markets from these times always had compliant bankers and moneylenders who would assist merchants. Similarities between the Templar invention of international banking and Switzerland’s leading role in banking today are no coincidence.
Just how many Templar knights entered Switzerland would not be known. The Hapsburg family “controlled” Swiss cantons and did not allow anyone to challenge their ability to tax the cantons. They allowed the cantons to rule themselves in law and custom as long as they paid their taxes. The Templars, however, had existed for nearly 200 years without paying taxes. Unfortunately, the Swiss, noted for their secrecy, either know little of their early history or deliberately claim not to know.
The story of William Tell may be a cover tale for the new challenge to the Hapsburg establishment. It is said to be a myth, but unlike myths that begin with nebulous timeframes, the William Tell story begins with an exact date. On November 18, 1307, William Tell visited the town of Altdorf with his son. This was five weeks after the Templars fled France ahead of their arrests. Altdorf was a municipality of Uri, one of the first three cantons to unite shortly after the Templar loss of Acre. He met with and offended Albrecht Gessler, who is the “Vogt,” a nominal bureaucrat appointed by the Habsburgs. The Vogt had hung his hat in the center of town and declared everyone who passed the hat had to bow to it.
Tell passed by and publicly refused to bow. Gessler wanted to arrest the stranger but instead challenged him to shoot an apple off his son’s head with an arrow. Tell accomplished the dangerous challenge and Gessler commented that he still held another arrow. Tell’s answer was that it was for killing Gessler if he missed. The outcome was that Tell killed Gessler. His arrow struck a blow for liberty igniting the cantons against their Hapsburg overlords. Tell played a leading role in the rebellion that followed. In 1307–1308 many forts of the Hapsburgs were destroyed and this, in effect, united others and finally brought about the Swiss Confederation. Tell himself was declared the “first confederate” in a song of his exploits.
Possibly the largest contingent of fleeing Templars went into the welcoming arms of Scotland. In Scotland, Robert Bruce had challenged the power of the King of England and declared Scotland’s independence. The English army would ride north and meet the Scots at Bannockburn. Just as it appeared the Scots were beaten, a fresh force of Templar Knights rode into battle and turned the tide. It was June 24, 1314, the feast of St. John Baptist, a most sacred day to the Templars. Soon afterwards the Scots Guard became a military force for hire.
In Switzerland, the Swiss cantons decided not to pay the feudal taxes imposed on them. The Hapsburg dukes were not simply going away though. In 1315, just one year after Bannockburn, the dukes sent an army to enforce the feudal dues. As with the English invasion of Scotland, the Hapsburgs thought the tiny cantons had no chance of resisting their army. But, like the English at Bannockburn, the Hapsburgs were not ready for the army they faced. In the Pass of Morgarten, the infantry of Uri and Schwyz defeated the Austrian cavalry in what became known as “the Marathon of Switzerland.” Like the Scottish victory at Bannockburn, the Swiss fought and defeated a larger enemy. No doubt incorporating ex-Templars as well as their training and support, the Swiss would form the Swiss Guard. It was also a mercenary force that could be leased out only with the approval of the Guard, not by the whims of a king. Ironically the Swiss Guard would be hired to defend the Vatican.
The Pontifical Swiss Guard had their origins in the fifteenth century when Pope Sixtus IV made an alliance with the Swiss Confederation. History shows their independence in not always fighting for one country. They fought for France against Naples, and both for and against the Holy Roman Empire. Their bravery, however, was never in question. Like the Templars, they never fled from greater odds. On May 6, 1527, 189 Swiss Guards fought a rear-guard action against the Holy Roman Empire. While 40 guard members helped Pope Clement VII escape, 147 of the 189 died, including their commander.
The Swiss Confederation grew with the addition of Zurich, Bern, Lucerne and Zug. While it had a strong fighting force, it declared its neutrality. It would take another two centuries to complete the formation of what became Switzerland. By becoming a neutral nation they were possibly protecting themselves from the Catholic France and Catholic Austria to the west and east. They were not always neutral, however, and had taken Lugano and other Italian properties while Italy was still a disrupted state. Oddly enough, in a very Protestant country, the Swiss Guard is made up of Swiss male citizens who are trained in the Swiss military and practice the Catholic religion.
It is no coincidence that the modern Red Cross also was born in Switzerland. The battle of Solferino was fought on June 24 of 1857. Like Bannockburn this was the Feast of St. John the Baptist. The story goes that a young man by the name of Henri Jean Dunant came to survey the damage. He later produced a book on the battlefield and presented it to wealthy and prominent citizens to create an international organization of relief workers. Switzerland at this time was a Confederation of 22 cantons and 3000 communes. Its neutrality was reiterated and protected by the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648 and confirmed by the Treaty of Vienna in 1815. Five of the prominent men met and agreed to call for a larger meeting. Prince Heinrich XIII of Reuss represented the Order of St. John of Jerusalem and became Vice President. Impressed by the St. John connection, delegates came from around the world. The HQ was at Basle. Rooms were taken in a chapel owned by the Teutonic knights.
Modern Switzerland has been built on banking, bank secrecy, precision engineering and pharmaceuticals. Finance is the central pillar of the Swiss economy. While bank secrecy is on the defense from the prying IRS, over five trillion dollars of “cross-border” wealth is known to be managed in Switzerland. Like the Templar bank of centuries before, the banks of Switzerland cater to national rulers, who often treat their nation’s riches as their own. The Swiss banks in turn have been accused of treating the money deposited as belonging to them. When President Mobutu of Zaire died in exile in 1997, Swiss newspapers reported he had $5 billion deposited in their banks. Swiss banks returned $8 million.
Templar scientific studies, once dubbed alchemy, are mirrored in the dominance of Swiss chemical and pharmaceutical companies. BASF, Zeochem, Novartis, and Hoffman-L Roche are Swiss companies with an international customer base.
Finally, the Templars and their sister order of St. Bernard the Cistercians, were known for their engineering abilities. Today the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator sits inside the Swiss border with France. This is CERN. Most Americans heard of it only through Dan Brown’s Angels & Demons when his character Robert Langdon discovers CERN technology is going to be used to destroy the Vatican. (Other conspiracy theorists worry CERN could destroy the planet.) It should be noted it was a CERN scientist, not Al Gore, who invented the World Wide Web in 1989.
The Templar order that the French King and the Pope forced into hiding, remains alive, and hiding in plain sight, in Switzerland, the center of Europe.

John N. Fragoulas was born on October 31, 1906 in Skiathos. He studied at Rizarios Ecclesiastical School of Athens University. He is the author of several books. He dealt particularly with the history and spiritual life of his country, Skiathos. His work "Skiathitika" (the language of Skiathos) (four volumes) was honored in 1987 with the Award of the Academy of Athens. Is about a unique of a kind work. John N. Fragoulas is, after Papadiamanti and Moraitidis the third spiritual child of Skiathos. He died in 2001 in Volos.
"I was born in Skiathos, the beautiful island of Northern Sporades, on 31 October 1906. In my baptism I took the name of John, the name of my father's brother, who drowned on 29 August 1895, while he returned with his boat from the feast of Saint John's of Kastro (Castro) and the incident was described by Alexis. Papadiamantis in the story "A drop of water".
With this section begins the book of J. N. Fragoulas "Autobiography". Continues, then in some way with the name that they give him, the life of his drowned uncle, Papadiamantis hero • is like they made a vow, unintentionally, to Papadiamantis. Later, it seems to promise him to 'another Alexander'. "During the period of my apprenticeship in Pizareio School often visited my uncle Alexander Moraitidi, who lived on the street Kapodistriou".
Observe faithfully both two vows: For Moraitidi and Papadiamanti wrote in my afterwards career, just 20 studies.
The proposal of Moraitidi, which seems to obscure the literary hierarchy, either random neither is unfair, since the first structured work of Fragoulas is the book "Alexander Moraitidis (chronological indicator of his life - Features articles about his work - Bibliography)", Boston 1950. He was followed the G. K. Katsimpali, with "Alexander Papadiamantis" managed to pick up the scattered parts of Papadiamantis . The same task accomplished the nephew of J. Fragoulas for Moraitidis uncle. With this study did not come out completely from the shadow of Papadiamantis, however, gave a necessary tool to few, scholars. The book comprises already 51 years of life, but is still a cornerstone for 'moraitidikes' studies.
The fundamental and without help for interpretative and historical annotation will always be the four-volume "Skiathos pop culture" by G. Rigas and also the four-volume 'Skiathitika' of Fragoulas. The priest Rigas is the folklorist-exemplary-of the island while the Dr. of Theology J. N. Fragoulas the historian and his registrar.
The term "registrar" next to 'historic' could be regarded as an under estimative for Fragoulas. Until then, even in different ways registrars of Skiathos were both Alexander. To ensure the safe, let us consider only the case of the story "A drop of water" with the mention which began the autobiography Fragoulas. Registrar, then with all him, especially with "Papadiamantiki, Skiathitiki Portrait" (Volos 1996), a work at first sight pedantic- if appear with eloquent essays and imaginative studies- but priceless. In fact this is the swan song that would forever restrict fantasies of those who interpret Papadiamantis as if they were outside of time and place and world. The "portrait" will continually point to the ghosts.
But Skiathos of Papadiamantis and Moraitidis was not whimsical place-and so groundless- as to be gone today. As early as the pre-eminent real island captured with great accuracy Fragoulas in 'Skiathitika'. To imprint he walked it, just like Alexander's inch by inch. From the walkthrough in a live soil and vital memories came the pages of the book "Nostalgic walk in the Island of two Alexander, Skiathos" (c edition 1999) an essential guide for respectful visitor of the island.
« My father was captain of Commerce Navy and he was owner of a schooner which traveled as the Alexandria and Marseilles ...». ("Autobiography", p. 8). Inevitable therefore, was Dr. Fragoulas to follow the roads of the sea. I mean the album in "The ship of Skiathos" (1995), a work with the biggest part his own, image of perpetual see road of formerly citizens of Skiathos - captains and brood.
We owe him a lot. And just for Chronologic of Papadiamantis and Moraitidis the debt are indescribable. If anyone ever could speaking for J. N. Fragoulas to mimic the one who impress his distant ancestor Fragoulas Fragoula in pleadingly "Reverie of Assumption". Enormous things I ask, but resting me the certainty that John Fragoulas who passed away as well for him in Papadiamantis period, seafaring "With the sails ", of angelic schooner that once Moraitidis traveled.
