"original": "It’s November 28th, the turkey is in the oven, the leaves are falling from the tree’s and the Lions are down by 20 in the first half. It’s Thanksgiving. And it is glorious. I’m going to give you guys some picks that I am confident in through this weekend. I am 14-1 in college football picks the last 2 weeks, so follow me on twitter @Vin_Calderone to get my picks every weekend. Let’s take a look at my locks for all of the football in the coming days.\nTo preview all the action this week:\nTuesday, November 26th\nPick: Northern Illinois +9.5 (vs. Western Michigan)\nA little MACtion to get the holiday week started. I like Northern Illinois in this spot. The Huskies are 5-0 ATS this season following a ATS loss.\nThursday, November 28th\nPick: Mississippi State -3 (vs. Ole Miss)\nPick: Bears -5.5 (@ Lions)\nThe Lions are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 Thursday games, while the Bears are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 against opponents from the NFC North. I think not having Stafford kills the Lions again and they will not be able to move the ball against the stout Bears defense.\nPick: Cowboys-6.5 (vs. Bills)\nThe Cowboys are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games in the month of November. I think a frustrated and angry Cowboys team runs through the Bills. They had New England on their toes last weekend and just could not pull through late. Dak Prescott is on fire of late and looks to keep that going through the holidays.\nPick: Falcons +7 (vs. Saints)\nThe Falcons are 4-0 ATS against teams with a winning record this season. Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons have fought hard to try and erase the early season struggles that plagued their September and October. Sitting at 3-8 and likely to miss the playoffs, players and coaches are both fighting for their jobs and the Falcons are still in win-mode. They should at the very least cover.\nFriday, November 29th\nPick: Texas -9.5 (vs. Texas Tech)\nPick: Virginia Tech -3 (vs. Virginia)\nPick: Central Michigan -9.5 (vs. Toledo)\nPick: Memphis -11 (vs. Cincinnati)\nThe Memphis Tigers are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 Friday games. Brady White has been tremendous for the Tigers this season, throwing for 30 TD and 7 INT. Look for him to get the Tigers going early and often.\nPick: Washington State +7 (@ Washington)\nPick: Boise State -12.5 (@ Colorado State)\nBoise State has been a sneaky good bet all season long. Even on the road. And the best part about it is they beat bad teams. 7-1-2 ATS vs. teams with losing record. Love the Broncos in this one.\nSaturday, November 30th\nPick: Kentucky -3 (vs. Louisville)\nPick: Oklahoma -12 (@ Oklahoma State)\nPick: UNC -8 (@ NC State)\nPick: SMU -5 (vs. Tulane)\nSMU has been largely carried offensively by stud RB Xavier Jones. He’s at 1124 yards and 19 TD’s on the year. I expect him to run rampant on a Tulane team that allows 378 yards a game.\nPick: Pittsburgh -9.5 (vs. Boston College)\nPick: Michigan +9 (vs. Ohio State)\nI’ve been saying it for a month now. Michigan beats Ohio State Saturday. Shea Patterson is finally hitting his stride this season. Khaleke Hudson and the Michigan defense need to be able to shut down Ohio State and QB Justin Fields for Michigan to come out on top.\nPick: Kansas +14 (vs. Baylor)\nPick: Stanford +14.5 (vs. Notre Dame)\nPick: Auburn +3.5 (vs. Alabama)\nNo Tua is a big deal for Alabama, of course. I might be in the minority here, but I believe Auburn has been a great bet all season, and I think the stats back it up. Auburn is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games overall.\nPick: Minnesota +2.5 (vs. Wisconsin)\nSunday, December 1st\nPick: Jets -3 (@ Bengals)\nSam Darnold got my MVP of the week on Outside the Box this week. And I think he continues to roll against the winless Bengals.\nPick: Eagles -9.5 (@ Dolphins)\nDolphins are 15-37 ATS in their last 52 games after allowing more than 250 yards passing in their previous game (Covers.com). Stats like this blow my mind.\nPick: Chiefs -10 (vs. Raiders)\nPick: Titans +2.5 (@ Colts)\nTitans are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.\nPick: Broncos +2.5 (vs. Chargers)\nPick: Panthers -10 (vs. Redskins)\nPanthers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games after allowing more than 350 total yards in their previous game.\nPick: Browns -2 (vs. Steelers)\nPick: Ravens -6 (vs. 49ers)\nRecord for NFL picks ATS this season: 29-30***\nRecord for college football last 2 weeks: 14-1***\nGamble on, folks. And Happy Thanksgiving from everyone at The Final Count!"

"original": "In a recent column published by Forbes.com, Tim Worstall, author of “23 Things We Are Telling You About Capitalism,” explains how India’s sugar subsidy programs are distorting the global market. The big underlying problem is government price-fixing…\n“Each year the federal government and states fix the price at which (sugar) mills can buy (sugar) cane from farmers,” an Indian news report explains. “The cane price has climbed 65 percent in five years, while sugar prices have fallen 8 percent.”\nWell, with sugar prices artificially higher than the free market will bear, farmers have, of course, grown a lot more sugar than the market needs. So sugar mills now face an over-supply vs. under-demand problem and are, in turn, demanding government action to fix this government-created problem.\nSince they have a glut of sugar on their hands far in excess of what Indians will consume, mills want to unload the excess on the global market. But since they’ve already paid too much for the sugar to local farmers, the price they have to charge to be competitive in the international export market – where other governments are also generously subsidizing their own sugar industries – is also too high. So they’re looking for government subsidies so they can lower their export price.\nThis sort of government manipulation of pricing through subsidization does not a free market make. And India has painted itself into a corner from which it’s not likely to emerge on its own anytime soon. As Alexis de Tocqueville (possibly misattributed) observed…\n“A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy.”\nAnd as Worstall points out, Indian “Cane farmers have many more votes than sugar mill owners. So, the inventible result of such government or politician price fixing is that prices for cane will be set high to garner the votes of cane farmers.”\nAs the world’s #2 sugar producer, the cause and effect of India’s market manipulating subsidy policies is for the United States to, unfortunately but necessarily, limit imports of government subsidized sugar at an artificially cheap price in order to protect our own domestic sugar farmers.\nThis is not how a true free market operates. But it is the market we’re operating in. The solution isn’t universal disarmament by eliminating the U.S. sugar program. It’s eliminating India’s."

"original": "At E-Therapy, we offer social and counseling teletherapy services to our school partners. Mental health is top of mind as students suffer the isolation brought on by Covid-19 and an uncertain future. We know that social and emotional learning (SEL) is more important than ever before, so in today’s blog, we feature an guest article by SEL expert trainer and coach, Sue Laue.\nAn Intro to SEL\nEmpower Guest Blog From Sue Laue, Open Studio Project, Inc.\nNow as never before, we as a global community must practice positive social and emotional skills to meet our biggest societal challenges. Educators worldwide are coming to realize that youth need to learn these skills early, alongside academic skills, to take their place as global citizens.\nSocial and Emotional Learning (SEL) is a process in which we learn about our emotions:\n- how to express and manage those emotions in positive ways\n- how to build relationships with empathy\n- how to appreciate diversity\nLearning SEL skills is foundational for success in school, work and life.\nOur global interconnectedness today demands an ability to understand the needs and cultures of diverse peoples to assure equity. Even within one’s own community, equity for all through understanding different perspectives is key to building successful and fair socio-economic strategies and to providing equal distribution and preservation of limited natural resources.\nEmployer surveys have shown that the skills most desired for employees are those that assist in building positive relationships, sharing, and teamwork. In addition, rewarding personal relationships are developed only with keen social and emotional skills.\nStudents can learn SEL skills\nResearch shows that SEL can be taught and students can learn the skills at all ages, academic, and behavioral levels. When a caring teacher, mentor, or parent models and teaches SEL skills, children can learn:\n- impulse control\n- bullying prevention\n- appreciation of diversity\n- goal setting\nWhen taught in an academic setting, students can achieve up to a 15% increase on standardized achievement tests, according to a meta-analysis by the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL), an international leader in SEL education and research based in Chicago.\nSocial and emotional learning programs have proven to increase academic success by:\n- teaching the five key SEL skills: promoting students’ self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship, and responsible decision-making skills\n- improving student attitudes and beliefs about self, others and school\nMany schools and districts in the U.S. and around the world are integrating social and emotional learning standards and skills for students into their school climate improvement and academic curriculum initiatives. Illinois was the first state to mandate that schools teach SEL skills in 2003, and developed SEL Goals and Standards for instruction in all schools PreK-12.\nThe studies we have access to today show several benefits of SEL and an 11 to 1 return on investing in SEL for schools. Some of the top data points include:\nScience Links SEL Instruction to Student Gains (% increase)\n- Social-emotional skills (23%)\n- Improved attitudes about self, others, school (9%)\n- Positive classroom behavior (9%)\n- Gains on standardized achievement tests (11-15%)\nReduced Risks for Failure (% decrease)\n• Conduct problems (9%)\n• Emotional distress (10%)\nWhy Implement SEL in Schools?\n- Relationships provide a foundation for learning.\n- Emotions affect how and what we learn.\n- Social and emotional skills can be taught.\n- Positive impact on academic performance, health, relationships and citizenship.\n- Reduction of classroom management problems.\n- SEL teaches skills and attitudes which are demanded by employers.\n- SEL coordinates a framework to overcome fragmentation of prevention and positive youth development programs.\nSEL helps students feel safe\nMost importantly, SEL instruction helps students form positive relationships with adults and other students at school, diminish bullying, stand up for others, feel safe, focus, and achieve in all areas of their lives.\nHowever, in order for lessons to be most impactful, SEL instruction must be delivered to students with fidelity to program and curriculum design and SEL lesson sequence – first teaching self-awareness and self-management, then social awareness and relationship skills and finally decision-making.\nCASEL states that high quality SEL instruction must be SAFE, utilizing:\n- Sequenced activities to develop skills\n- Active forms of learning & teacher modeling\n- Focused attention on SEL in the curriculum\n- Explicit targeting of particular SEL skills for development\nAbout the Author\nSue Laue, a social-emotional learning trainer and coach is CEO of Behavioral Solutions K-12 & Media Masters, Inc.

"original": "Refresh These Passé Features\nSome home design features from the past have a charm that makes them feel historic or vintage. Others? They haven't quite stood the test of time. A trend that was so ubiquitous in one particular era that it instantly dates your home can be a flag to friends (or future homeowners, if you’re thinking about selling) that you haven’t renovated in decades. Of course, you may not care if your home is on trend. If you absolutely love a quirky feature, by all means keep it. But if you’re planning some renovations or if you're thinking about resale value, you should consider updating these 21 things that make your home feel outdated.\nThere was a time when wall-to-wall carpeting was a luxurious must-have, but these days it’s all about hardwood. Although carpeting adds comfort underfoot and absorbs sound—which is especially important in bedrooms—consider upgrading to wood on the main floor of your home. Not only is it more in step with today's home trends, but it's more hygienic too.\nHoney Oak Cabinets\nA staple in kitchens of the 1980s and '90s, these golden-toned wood cabinets have fallen out of favor as white and gray cabinets have risen in popularity. If you don’t like your light-stained cabinets, but they’re in good shape, consider refinishing or painting what's there.\nIt’s a subtle change, but as the neutral of choice has shifted to gray, warmer beiges—ones with undertones of pink, yellow, or peach—are starting to feel out of date. If gray is too cool for you, consider a greige (that’s gray + beige), which is a light neutral with both cool (gray) and warm (brown) notes.\nThis nubby treatment gave ceilings everywhere a textured look through the mid-20th century—and provided a challenge to anyone trying to clean cobwebs from the upper corners of a room. Despite their current lack of popularity, popcorn ceilings are still around today in lots of homes, because removal of these ceilings, some of which contain asbestos, can be expensive, messy, and potentially health threatening.\nRelated: 9 Ceiling Types You'll See in Homes\nPastel pink and mint green toilets, tubs, sinks, and more were popular in the 1950s—so if they’re still in your home, that's a clear sign that no one's remodeled since then! But before you renovate, be aware that these throwback fixtures are still popular among a certain set, so see if you can find your old porcelain a new home.\nRelated: 10 Bathroom Trends You Might Regret\nPopular in the 1960s and '70s for their durability, wipe-clean convenience, and low price point, laminate countertops, particularly Formica, were a mark of pride. Though the material is still a good, affordable option, it’s no longer as popular as natural or engineered stone countertops like marble, granite, and quartz.\nShiny Gold Fittings\nIn the early 1990s, shiny brass faucets, light fixtures, and hardware were the norm, beloved for their flashy sheen. Though gold-toned hardware is on its way back into style, these newer versions are more muted in tone and feature rounded or geometrically inspired silhouettes instead of the clunky shapes of 20 years ago.\nDark Wood Paneling\nDark wood paneling was so popular in the 1960s and '70s that it was once nearly almost impossible to avoid in any neighborhood. Today, while many homeowners have phased out the dark and dreary feature in favor of neutral or brightly painted drywall, paneling remains in plenty of homes that haven't been remodeled in decades. If you have real wood paneling, consider bleaching or painting over it to freshen it up. If, however, the walls are covered by sheets of wood-look panels, pull them off now!\nBuilt-In Media Cabinets\nGone are the days when your TV was as deep as your sofa: In this era of flat-screen televisions that mount almost flush to the wall, no one needs a big ol’ cabinet to hold their technology. Pull that dinosaur out, already!\nZillow Digs home in Tucson, AZ\nA 19th-century staple that enjoyed a revival in the late 1980s and early '90s, this fussy floral wallpaper feels out of date today. Done right, it can add vintage flair in an eclectic space—but done wrong, it just looks like Grandma decorated your space (no offense, Gram).\nThis soft-hued pink was all the rage just a few years ago. As with any trend, millennial pink became old news once the design world selected new colors to obsess over. Paint over this passé shade with a timeless neutral tone, and avoid purchasing pricier furniture pieces in the color—save the millennial pink for decorative accents that you can easily replace.\nThey’re annoying to clean and even more irritating if you have pets, who seem to continuously dislodge the delicate blinds and leave them strewn on the floor. Replace the aggravating blinds with more fashionable window coverings, like airy curtains or farmhouse shutters. Not sure about the best fit for your windows? Many home decor stores now offer in-home window treatment consultations for free.\nWord Art and Wall Decals\nPop into a home decor shop or gift store and you no doubt will spot word art. Simple phrases transformed into wooden art pieces or stick-on decals, like “home,” “eat,” “live, love, laugh,” etc., rose in popularity with farmhouse style. While the rustic aesthetic remains as popular as ever, the kitschy decor and decals have faded into the realm of basic platitudes.\nTiling, whether in the kitchen or bathroom, is best kept for floors and backsplashes nowadays. Once popular in the ’70s, tile counters are a sure sign that your home needs an update. This type of countertop isn’t just visually unappealing, it’s also incredibly tough to clean properly—yet another reason to swap your old countertops and pick an easier to maintain surface.\nWallpaper borders were a staple in the ’90s. The split-in-half look was used as trim for the top or middle of the walls. Today if you want to add interest to walls, forget borders and opt for a bright accent wall, stylish wallpapers, or crown molding.\nRelated: 15 Wallpaper Trends to Try in 2019\nAt one time pine was the preferred wood for furniture. From tables and chairs to hutches and chests, rooms were decked with the light wood. While a little pine is okay, a lot of it is overwhelming. Opt for other attractive wood furniture choices instead: teak, walnut, acacia.\nStenciling and Sponging\nSpicing up walls by hand was big in the ’90s. Adding texture or dimension with sponging was a tedious task, but left homeowners with a look that was coveted at the time. Stenciling, too, was a hobby that left many ’90s era walls with delicately painted-on patterns. It’s time to grab a can of paint and cover up those outdated faux finishes and themed stencils.\nRelated: 9 Paint Color Rules Worth Breaking\nA few bold floral pillows are the perfect accent in an otherwise monochrome living room. The trouble comes when floral patterns start to overwhelm a room. Spaces covered in floral designs are straight out of the ’80s. Mix and match solid and floral accents to avoid looking like your grandma’s house.\nHeavy Window Treatments\nBulky curtains and heavy valences are a thing of the past and for good reason. Heavy window treatments can quickly overwhelm a space and make it feel claustrophobic. Not to mention the upkeep required. The greater the surface area, the more dust chunky curtains will inevitably attract.\nAvocado Green Appliances\nThe first kitchen appliances were white, but the 1950s brought a rainbow of pastels, and the late 1960s introduced bolder shades, most infamously avocado green, which peaked in the '70s. If you have an avocado green oven in your kitchen today, it's screaming out that your kitchen hasn't been updated in almost 50 years. But kudos to you for keeping it in good shape for so long!\nEach week from now through New Year's Eve, receive around-the-house tips, DIY project inspiration, and clever gift ideas to help make this your best-ever holiday season—subscribe now!"

The motif that they selected was mermaids.\nMTV and their cameras weren’t present.\n(Because Farrah Abraham got fired from Teen Mom, maybe — a lot is still unclear about that)\nAnd neither were any of Farrah’s Teen Mom costars.\n(Because, well, nobody likes Farrah Abraham)\nBut Amber Portwood was actually invited and, despite her current and intense feud with Farrah, might have come — if she hadn’t been too sick.\nFarrah Abraham and Amber Portwood got into a fight way, way earlier this year.\nLong story short?\nFarrah Abraham commented on how Matt Baier looks like a total creep. Amber did not care for Farrah’s comments and, well, now they’re totally feuding.\nThat nonsense is actually ongoing, and Matt Baier might be trying more of his shenanigans, because he’s just that classy.\nThis time, Matt Baier is defending Farrah and slamming MTV for (maybe) firing her over her recent sex work.\nBut … a lot of people are reading between the lines and wondering if Matt Baier is just trying to puff himself up and attract Farrah’s notice.\nHe’s tried before, you see, allegedly tweeting his thirst at Farrah before things heated up with Amber.\nAnyway, so, at the wedding, Amber couldn’t make it because pregnancy isn’t all fun and games, folks.\nSpeaking to The Ashley, Farrah had some less-than-subtle shade to throw in Amber Portwood’s direction.\n“You see who really showed up to the wedding.”\nFarrah then goes on to bash … all of the Teen Mom folks. And Amber in particular.\n“Not all the fake people who are production puppets like Amber, or any other whackjob that you’ve been seeing in the press before today.

She was sick the whole time.”\nRemember that some people have morning sickness worse than others. Some, much worse.\n“[I told her] I hoped it was much better this time.”\nWe’re sure that Amber hopes so too.\nWe don’t know that Farrah’s goodwill is anywhere near so strong."

"original": "I’ve been busy at work and I almost forgot about SNBC this week that I didn’t even have time to plan leave. Hope to see all of you there. Although SCA’s website didn’t specify the time, I’ve gotten word from one of the competitors that the final day on Saturday, 27 February will start at 11 am, and will end approximately at 4 pm. As Ben Ruane has pointed out in the comments below, SCA has updated their page with the schedule. As with all SNBC’s since 2007, the competition keeps getting tougher each year, thus raising the bar and hopefully, we will see more of a coffee culture in Singapore. Good luck to all the competitors, and we hope this year’s finalist will improve Singapore’s global standing to under #20.\nAnd a shout-out to all the readers attending, free free to comment on this blog (not the facebook post) about the results or any other tidbits. Thanks in advance.\n[googleMap name=”Suntec City Convention Centre” description=”Room 303 and 304″]1 Raffles Boulevard Suntec City, Singapore 039593[/googleMap]\nToday’s gathering, January 17 2010, was called up at the last minute, and the attendees were the usual Gang of Four: me, Melvin and Steve at Kai Seng’s pad. Peter was away in Geneva while Adrian was selling bakkwa (roasted pork slices.) As you can remember from the previous meetup, I, on behalf of the group expressed our enthusiasm and reminded Steve to, most of all, show up with the salsa. He did and thanks to Adhe who is wonderfully consistent, we finished the salsa in one sitting. Kai Seng also prepared ice lemon tea and had cream puffs. Adrian, though absent, gave us a sampling of his bakkwa. As this gathering was called up last minute and that Steve had just returned from a business trip, most of us were caught without roasted coffee so much so Kai Seng and Dawn had to miss their daily americanoes to allocate for the group. I had a roast muckup the day before too on my Idido Misty Valley.\nWow! While Steve was the undisputed champion of machine mods, Kai Seng has practically every latest gadget known to Man and was the envy of us all. Steve mentioned KS definitely had all his priorities right, marvelling at all his worldly goods. It’s techie geek pad EXXTREME, sporting a Dell Zino with BlueRay connected to his HDTV, a handheld wireless trackpad-keyboard all-in-one, a WDTV media player, a Nexstar HDD dock with eSATA, a Canon Vixia HF200 camcorder, and a nice roaster, of course. A La Marzocco GS3 or a Kees Van Der Westen Speedster would have completed this picture with a sweet note. I remarked about how we coffeegeeks are techie geeks at heart, and Steve followed up by saying that the research process leading right up to our purchase was meticulous and tbat anything that was lacking thereafter would immediately be corrected by some modifications. Did I get that part right?\nKai Seng, Melvin and I made a few espressos while I took turns with Melvin to try out the Vixia. Coffees drank today were Kai Seng’s Ethiopian Kuza, Melvin’s Kenyan AA, and my re-roasted Idido Misty Valley. The day before, I had overloaded my roaster with beans and after a 15 minute roast, was dissatisfied with the results and decided to re-roast half of the batch. Fortunately, the re-roasted batch tasted good, albeit a bit fresh and lacking body.\nWe adjourned to the rooftop where the roaster was situated. Kai Seng uses a professional gas fired drum roaster. We each had brought our own greens and Kai Seng was at the helm roasting them. We were blessed with a good wind and despite the heat, it was comfortable enough to lounge around in the shade. The 1st and 2nd cracks could be heard clearly over the drum rotation of the beans, and a sample of the beans could be easily taken out at any point during the roast to be examined for colour and consistency. Sight and sound are the 2 senses we use to determine when to end the roast, including all other methods we have employed in our coffee roasting, be it a popcorn popper, a DIY over-the-stove drum roaster, an i-Roast or a GeneCafe. The drum roaster also had the knack of rapidly cooling the beans upon exiting the drum, which is a major plus as you would want the roast to end instantaneously. It is akin to photography and its decisive moment. Our decisive moment makes or breaks the roast.\nAfter the roasting, we went back downstairs where Kai Seng wrapped things up by showing us how he kept the greens, which would warrant a separate post. All in all, it was an enjoyable get-together as usual and a great stress reliever. I am so looking forward to our next gathering. We thank Kai Sneg and Dawn for graciously hosting this fantastic meeting of the like-mindeds.\nStay tuned to this blog for upcoming videos of the event and a sure-fire way to preserve your green coffee ala Kai Seng.\nOne of the chief purposes of this blog was to write down my cupping notes for the coffees I’ve roasted (however somewhat limited they are to my lackluster ability and tastebuds to define the nuances of the tastes.)\nAnd looking at my own notes, I’m always roasting the few same coffees, Ethiopian Sidamo, Yrgacheffe, Panama Gesha, and of course, who can forget the evergreen Brazil Formosa, and my favourite Sweet Maria’s Italian Espresso Blend and Espresso Vivace’s Dolce.\nI hope you readers (however few – sorry about the inferiority complex, it’s a growing trend) can help me out by listing in the comments below about the coffees you’ve had the pleasure of tasting, good and bad (listing here means on this blog, not on Facebook, not on Twitter.) No holds barred. It could be the Nespresso Ristretto you just had in the office a few hours ago, or the godshot made from your Silvia, or the great cup you’ve just had in Blue Bottle or Intelligentsia or Ritual or even at a corner of a flower market in London. Or 15th Ave Coffee & Tea. Whatever. Please state where you had it. This could be seen as a survey of what my readers drink. To help you out on your tasting notes, I’ve included a taste wheel below. Please push your senses.\nI thought about letting this one go. But Melvin happened. And I just have to borrow his tagline for this post.\nIt was an ominous feeling to have heard Steve say those words. You just had to be there.\nWe talked about the Aeropress. About how good a cup of coffee it makes. But it just was not espresso, the way Aeropress had marketed it as.\nAnd then, Steve introduced the N word into our lives and we never looked at him the same again.\nSteve talked about how good Nespresso really was at its price point. And then he mentioned the Nespresso ristretto as a must-try. And of course, the convenience of it all. I started going over Steve’s history of machines in my head. A whole series of Braun-Krups-Krap before the transition to the Rancilio Silvia/Rocky combo, and then, now the Expobar Brewtus. And this same guy who’s speaking to us now about the wonders of Nespresso also did tell me in a phone conversation a few months earlier of his next fictional if any, upgrade-itis which was to be the La Marzocco GS3, instead of the Kees Van Der Westen Speedster, mainly because of support issues. This seems to be the upgrade path most home baristi take after the E-61’s I believe.\nAnd then, we called it a day, and we left. And no, Melvin, my journey towards the Dark Side did not end outside Steve’s gates. After you dropped me off, I eventually ended up at ION ORCHARD. Well, it was the path I took to get home anyway. Waitaminute, doesn’t ION ORCHARD also have a Nespresso Boutique?\nTHE NESPRESSO EXPERIENCE\nI walked into the Nespresso Boutique. Wow! It’s a beautiful sight. If you’ve ever walked into a Nespresso Boutique, you’ll know what I mean. Wall to wall packed with Nespresso bricks of different Pantone colours. A whole line of Nespresso coffee pods in different colour shades. Right smack in the centre of the store is an island, where they have demo machines, and all the flavours of Nespresso with it.\nWait, the journey to the Dark Side cannot be complete until I’ve had a taste of, what did Steve recommend. . . “oh! Ristretto please?”\nA saleslady made me one by dropping in a pod, and pushing the button. It was served in a clear plastic demitasse. I took a sip, and . . . .\nThis Can’t Be Espresso. This Will Never Be Espresso. BUT, it wasn’t really swill either. I can detect very very slight hints of spice. . . tobacco maybe. It was under the temperature though, slightly warmer than room temperature. It was thin coffee.\nThe saleslady told me of the convenience factor, about how you could just plug in a Nespresso unit and just churn out coffee without having to wait for a warm-up period. Even my old Gaggia thermoblock required at least a 15 minute start up time. But that did make a different class of espresso as well.\nIn all fairness, the Nespresso is simple to use, doesn’t make a mess. It makes ok coffee for its price point and for the amount of effort put in. But just like our discussion on the Aeropress, I feel you cannot call this espresso. It’s just convenience coffee.\nHome Barista Steve Cairns shows you how he goes about his espresso routine. Equipment used are an Expobar Brewtus espresso machine, a Macap M5D grinder & a Reg Barber tamper. This was filmed at his home on Sunday, 8th November 2009 during one of our get-togethers.\nI’ve just spent an hour uploading this video on Youtube, only to realise Youtube needs another 6 hours’ crunchtime processing the video before it can be properly viewed. So, I’ve included a smaller 16:9 video (suitable for viewing on an iPhone) on this post instead while we await the higher res one on Youtube to finish its due course.\nI’ve got much better experience with Vimeo, so here it is.\nThis video was taken with a Fuji F50fd digital cam, so please pardon the poor quality.\nHQ version on Youtube:\nP.S. Comparing the 2 online video servers, Vimeo and Youtube:\nI spent an hour uploading the video on each of the 2 servers, but Vimeo didn’t require the 6 hours’ processing time. However, Vimeo is not as iPhone-friendly as Youtube which launches the Youtube app as soon as you tap on the play icon on your mobile Safari.\nThis coffee get-together was organised at a last moment’s notice on Sunday, 8th November 2009 at Steve Cairns’ new place. The ones to turn up this day were me, KaiSeng, and Melvin. Peter couldn’t make it and Adrian was in Malacca. (UNLUCKY)\nI regret that I didn’t take any pictures of the HIGHLIGHT AND MAIN EVENT of the day:\nThe . . . . .\n. . . . . . . . .\n. . . . . . . . .\nS A L S A ! ! !\nwhich was prepared by Steve’s wife, Adhe. Actually, I don’t really regret as I was too busy stuffing my face with the corn chips and the springrolls dipped in the salsa. I’m hungry now just thinking of it. I think I’ll start off by petitioning that no future coffee meetup shall ever start without Adhe’s salsa. It just would not be complete.\nAfter the fabulous salsa, we retreated inside for drinks. Steve has gotten a really nice work table from IKEA for his coffee equipment as you can see in the accompanying photos below. His line of equipment include the Expobar Brewtus, a Macap M5D grinder with a digital display and worm driven stepless grind adjuster, a Rancilio Rocky grinder (from his Silvia days), a new Reg Barber tamper with a made-to-order 58.2mm convex base, a new clicker tamping base, topped off with the familiar “Espresso Open” backlit sign on his wall. Steve went on to explain about how he and Kelvin (another CGSGer) felt that the 58.2mm base was a much nicer fit than the usual 58mm. We all took turns trying it out and I think that 58.2mm just might be my next purchase.\nKaiSeng, Melvin and I brought our own home-roasted coffee, while Steve had Spinelli. My Brazil Formosa was just roasted the day before and I felt it wasn’t rested enough, so I declined to even take it out of the bag. KaiSeng brought Bolivian AA. Melvin brought a blend of Bolivian AA and Ethiopian Limu. We all took turns as baristi, including Steve’s daughter, Samantha who made an exceptional americano for her mom. I should’ve taken a video or photos because her pour using the naked portafilter was excellent – the basket being equally saturated, the first few drips and then smoothly coming together at the centre of the basket, a slow and steady pour. WOW!!\nWithout further ado, here is the awards ceremony. The votes are counted (award winners’ votes are discarded) and the winners are . . . .\nBest Newcomer: Samantha Cairns\nBest Barista: Samantha Cairns\nBest Roaster: KaiSeng (that’s saying something as Spinelli was also in the running)\nBest Entree which every future meetup can’t do without: Adhe’s SALSA (which just became the best incentive for us to increase the frequency of our meetups.)\nBest Salsa Stuffer: 3 way tie between Colin, KaiSeng and Melvin. (Even though Melvin came late, he caught up real fast.)\nWe really really have to start planning for the next meetup. How’s everyone for December or January?\nI’ve wanted to broach on this subject for a long time now, ever since some friends and I have experienced disappointments from roasters in Singapore. What typically happens is that we’re assured by the MBTC (Men Behind The Counter) that the beans we’ve bought are freshly roasted the week before or so, and then we get home only to find out the beans are stale beyond consumption. Before I go any further, I would like to thank the following for their time, effort and photos:\nMatt Riddle and Shari Bagwell from Intelligentsia Coffee, USA;\nTim Wendelboe and Tim Varney from Tim Wendelboe, Norway.\nThe following few points are some factors to look out for when buying freshly roasted coffee.\n1) Whole beans\nWhen whole roasted coffee beans are ground and broken down into tiny fines, it results in a significant increase in surface area from which a rapid deterioration of the coffee occurs. And if you are buying freshly roasted coffee, you would want to buy whole beans instead of ground coffee.\n2) Roast Date\nI am quite particular about the freshness of my coffee and I tend to discard beans which are older than 14 days. In Singapore, most roasted coffee packaging I’ve come across do not have roast dates. Instead, they list expiry dates which should be ONE YEAR from the roast date. Next time you pick up a bag of locally roasted coffee, just subtract a year from the date of expiry to determine how fresh the coffee is. I asked both Intelligentsia Coffee and Tim Wendelboe on the window of consumption on an opened bag before discarding the coffee and their replies were:\nMatt Riddle, Intelligentsia: “2 – 3 weeks would be the top end of optimal storage time.”\nTim Wendelboe: “3 – 4 weeks, when coffee is packed in a one way valve bag flushed with nitrogen or CO2 then vacuum sealed. In an open paper bag maximum 4-5 days. We operate with 3 weeks on our bags that are vac sealed and flushed with nitrogen.”\n3) Proper Treatment and Packaging\nCoffee is highly volatile and prone to staling upon roasting. The roasted coffee beans begin to degas carbon dioxide and deteriorate the moment they are being roasted. Proper packaging and treatment of the coffee as they leave the roastery are very important to prolong the freshness of the beans. The following are some features roasteries use on their packaging of coffee:\na) Opaque one way valve Bags\nb) Resealable or Zip-loc\nc) Nitrogen flushed before sealing bags\nTim Varney mentioned that “When the bag is flushed, then sealed, the bag is sucked tight – but is designed to be able to stand up. Also, there is a one way valve on the rear of the bag to release the CO2 over time.”\nd) Immediate packaging of the beans upon cooling after the roast\nThe following are prime examples of coffee bags from the 2 aforementioned roasters.\nFYI, the roast date for Tim Wendelboe Espresso is found on the lower right corner of the label.\nLast but not least, I asked both roasters the following:\n“I’ve come across a few roasters in Singapore who fib on the actual roast day. A good way to tell is the smell and the oil on the beans. Am I correct? What are other ways to tell you’ve been had?”\nMatt Riddle stated “Really, just by looking at coffee it’s hard to tell when it was roasted. So much would depend on the level of roast, age of the (green) coffee and other factors. The best way to tell if the coffee is fresh is to grind some, and pour a little water over it. if it blooms, it’s fresh. If not, it’s probably getting up on the window if not past it. You can most certainly smell old coffee…it’s hard to describe, but you know it when you smell it.”\nTim Wendelboe’s answer was “It depends on the roast and the cooling technique. If you cool the coffee with water quenching the shelf life is max 5 days and the beans will get oily the day after roast if they are dark roasted. Lighter roasted beans have longer shelf life and air cooled coffee has longer shelf life. However a good indication whether the coffee is stale or not is by looking, smelling and tasting. Oils is a good indicator of stale coffee as oils oxidize and turn bitter when in contact with oxygen.”\nIncidentally, both coffees in the photos are legendary and you can order them online below:\nOriole Cafe will be organising a latte art competition on 2nd November 2009. For those who don’t check or have Facebook accounts, the details are below, as excerpted from their Facebook updates:\nGet your milk jugs ready and steady your nerves,\nBack after 8 months (sorry we’ve been busy…)!\nNew exciting and audience friendly knockout system\nMany prizes galore (alcohol guaranteed)!\n$5.50(nett!) beer all night long\ncut price shooters\n$5 entry, winner takes all\nregister early to secure your limited slots! Or just come and join in the mayhem!\nThis event is planned to start at 7:30 pm on Nov 2, 2009 at Oriole Cafe & Bar, #01-01 Pan Pacific Suites, 96 Somerset Rd.\nFirst, I have to apologize for the long hiatus from blogging as I was quite held up working at a bistro. I’ve since left that job and am continuing in my search for the barista position that chooses to escape me. While I am currently awaiting several emails to help me in my next post (yes, I’ll be researching this next one and not just post my many naked portafilter shots), I’ve found this comprehensive article on Gizmodo (don’t they do gadgets?) that details the many methods of brewing coffee, most of which can be found on (my) Amazon.com store.\nWhile I used to dismiss the americano as a watered down drink, I’ve grown to appreciate it much more after talking to fellow coffeegeek KS. It is much easier to discern the taste profile of the coffee if one is not used to the intenseness of an espresso. Of course, this intense taste profile comes only with freshness of the bean and quality of the barista and the machine preparing it. After watching James Hoffmann’s video blog and this morning’s taste test, I’ve embarked on another taste test now involving watered down espresso. I used a Bodum Pavina for the espresso, so that the crema could be clearly delineated. Here are the details:\nBrazil Moreninha Formosa\nRoasted to Full City +\n4 days old\nDose: 18 grams\nFor this 1st shot, after separating the crema, I tasted both cups before adding water. Both taste tests were the same as previous post.\nEric’s Thermocouple: Start at 200, end at 204 Fahrenheit.\nEspresso only: Slight bitterness.\nCrema only: Good fragrance. Taste spreads thru entire tongue.\nWater-espresso 2:1 ratio: Tastes like…. coffee. Smooth, even cup, no bitterness.\nWater-crema-espresso: Good body, very smooth with good fragrance.\nThe first thing that hit my mind after drinking the 2 different cups was that if the Aldo Coffee taste test was repeated here, the ones who chose Maxwell House will go with the water-espresso cup, while the ones who were able to distinguish the CoE Fazenda Kaquend will go for the water-crema cup. Drinking the water-crema cup brings me the same sensation as my Panama Hacienda La Esmeralda. It doesn’t taste like conventional coffee. It brings the best to the table. To get a taste profile like this, I feel I have to roast the beans to almost Full City, without ever hitting 2nd crack.\nEric’s Thermocouple: Start at 198, end at 202 Fahrenheit.\nEspresso only: A bit bright, lemony feel.\nCrema only: Strong fragrance, berry-like.\nWater-espresso 1:1 ratio: Citrusy lemony hints. A bright and smooth cup.\nWater-crema 1:1 ratio: Aromatic, perfumed cup. Hint of blueberries. Esmeralda-like. Not like coffee.\nWater-crema-espresso: Coffee with a good aroma. Smooth. A bit lemony. Pleasant aftertaste.\nAfter this 2nd shot, it is safe to say that crema is not rubbish. Au contraire, watered down crema is IMHO a good way for beginners to distinguish the fragrances of the particular coffee. I would reiterate as I have stated in the previous Espresso sans crema taste test, espresso is not complete without crema. If this does work across the board for all coffees, I wonder if this process of separating the crema out will redefine espresso tasting/cupping sessions.\nSingaporean coffee geek’s notes and reviews on espresso and coffee roasting.

"original": "Unplanned Outage: Due to a technical glitch, customers might see higher wait times on Sophos Call Lines. We request for your kind cooperation. Please prefer logging a case via Sophos Support Portal, unless the situation is critical for you.\nI am working in a company with normal User Credentials, and recently Sophos AV didn't get Updates anymore, so I had to let it re-install anew by a tech Admin via Remote.\nRight after that, the situation in the title appeared. Process Explorer, which I use now for several years (more than ten), can't be used anymore.\nProcess Explorer by Mark Russinovich can be downloaded from Microsoft Docs, I cannot understand why it is suddenly a controlled application.\nNow, since I am not given any user rights to authorize this program (alledgedly the tech department doesn't know how....) I would like to suggest to remove this software from the list of controlled applications.\nThanks in advance\nHi Rudolf Zorn\nIn the \"Application control\" policy, applications are authorized by default. System administrators select the applications they want to block. Please check this article to block/unblock the listed application.\nHi Shweta, thanks for the answer. So the Admin did not say the truth to me when he said that he didn't block Process Explorer intenional, when I said to him it wasn't blocked before the re-install ? Did he have to activate blocking of this program manually ? -Sadly I couldn't see what he did b/c it was remotely done and I was locked out during the process.\nI suspect what has happened is in the Application Control policy:\nThe person who configured the Application Control policy applied to your device or user checked the \"NEW APPLICATIONS ADDED TO THIS CATEGORY BY SOPHOS\" option. So as soon as Sophos added this it was blocked.\nThank you jak ! Of course, as a user, I do not know this configuraton tool. It is most likely what is mentioned in the article that Shweta linked above.\nWhy Sophos added this application in 2020 eludes me. It is a proven tool and has, amongst other things, a lower cpu footprint than the regular taskmanager.\nI could use it up to now only without admin rights anyway.\nInteresting detail: The admin I spoke to didn't even know Process Explorer.\nAnother interesting detail: As long as the blocked application is existing, Sophos notifies about blocking it. Mostly, when I open a filesector box in another application. Since Process Explorer isn't an application that is hooked into file operations, as it always has to be executed manually, this behavior is weird.\nHello Rudolf Zorn,\nApplication Control is a by-product of On-Access/Real-Time scanning. It does not monitor process creation (i.e. execution) but file access regardless of the intent. As (Windows) Explorer opens the files when it displays a folder's contents controlled applications in this folder are detected.\nHello QC, this is for sure the right explanation. But ist's weird anyway, since none of the specific folders where the controlled app resides, are opened. But there maybe some access behavior or memory of them in a cache, and therefore I will delete those folders and restart explorer afterwards to end the annoyance. If that doesn't help, I will do a reboot (which I do not do often, b/c I only hibernate the machine most of the time and continue working after wakeup)."

"original": "RABBLE ROUSER: Don’t let refugees ruin West\nThe plight of hundreds of thousands of refugees (predominately Muslim) fleeing war-ravaged Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan for sanctuary in Europe and North America cannot be humanely overlooked, even by the most callous among us.\nHowever, the harsh reality of the planned destruction of our Western culture and liberated society by the radicalized Muslim imams and their murderous thug followers who easily infiltrate the “open door” policy of national admission cannot be dismissed as “Islamophobia.”\nThe naive in the prosperous West who oppose security verifications and quotas have conveniently forgotten how the Dutch, British, French and Spanish and the United States, as well as other European and Asian nations, have been targeted by hateful and disgruntled Muslim immigrants. Easily recruited by Muslim religious fanatics who have taken advantage of their newfound liberties and free speech protections, as well as the Internet, the radicalized young gleefully commit barbaric terror attacks on the very host population that welcomed them.\nUnfortunately, America and the West are reaping what they have sown over decades of misguided, disruptive and imperialistic policies in the Middle East. Inclusive is the conspired destabilization of governments considered the antithesis of “democracies,” along with the glaring lack of understanding of cultural, political and tribal differences in that huge region by our supposed “experts” who lack the competency to properly advise their elected political bosses.\nThis nightmarish “harvest” culminates with the disastrous, unforgivable and monstrously costly (in irreplaceable lives and unpaid debt) military invasion of Iraq, resulting from the war hysteria and apelike chest pounding approach to problem solving by the myopic regime headed by President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.\nThe fate of much of the Middle East may have been set on a downward spiral that may take a century or more, if ever, to recover.\nThe growth and power of extremism, unparalleled hate against any and all not in mind manipulation with this dark evil (ISIS or whatever thuggish movement will evolve next) and the desire to eradicate modern Western civilization will be our burden to face.\nHow we choose to deal with this threat will determine the future of Europe, North America and rest of the planet.\nAs the West struggles with the growing mass exodus of Muslim immigrants into their open lands, will the face of what we once knew as Europe or North America be irrevocably altered? How many of these hundreds of thousands (perhaps millions) will truly assimilate into our way of life? Or will they aggressively force the host to become like the guest?\nHelp the oppressed, but within reasonable limits. Sanctuary is not limitless. Our way of life is also at risk and cannot be piously put in danger by the posturing of religious and political leadership. Even the simplistic politically correct among us and the opportunistic elected officials must recognize this truth.\nThe writer lives in Eastampton."

[Oct. 18, 2016] Human Resources Outsourcing and Consulting firm OperationsInc (www.OperationsInc.com) has announced a new service geared towards helping businesses determine how they are affected by the changes to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) effective 12/1/16, and how to best meet these new compliance standards.\nThe adjustments to the FLSA guidelines include a significant change to a minimum salary threshold that helps determine who may or may not be eligible to be paid for overtime work they perform. The Norwalk-based consultancy is offering the consultation package as an efficient and cost-effective means for businesses to understand all possible adjustment options they can make in concert with complying with the updates to the law.\n“The FLSA was long overdue for changes,” stated David Lewis, president and CEO of OperationsInc. “The changes implemented are not particularly clear or intuitive, resulting in most businesses needing some level of outside expertise to help determine how to best adapt to the newly defined laws. We see compliance being the goal of most, and as such have devised a way to guide and advise effectively and efficiently.”\nThe White House and Department of Labor announced the upcoming changes to the FLSA in May of this year, making millions of American workers eligible for overtime pay based on current salary thresholds that have been in place since the latest changes to the law made in 2004.\nFounded by David Lewis in 2001, OperationsInc specializes in HR solutions for businesses of all sizes and across all industries. OperationsInc’s portfolio of offerings includes such services as Human Resources Outsourcing, Affordable Care Act Consulting & Reporting Services, Talent Acquisition Assessments, Organizational Development Services, Recruiting Services, Outplacement Services, Benefits Administration, Exit Interview Services, Payroll Administration, and Management and Staff Training.\nOperationsInc is located at 535 Connecticut Avenue, Second Floor, Norwalk, CT 06854 and can be reached at (203) 322-0538 or [email protected]."

Jimmy Butler scored 22 points in earning his first trip to the Finals. Herro finished with 19 points, more than half of it coming down the stretch. Jaylen Brown had a team-high 26 points for the Celtics, who have been eliminated in the East finals three times in the last four seasons. Jayson Tatum had 24 and a career-high 11 assists in the loss, while Marcus Smart and Kemba Walker each scored 20. The Heat square off against the Lakers on Wednesday.\nIn NBA news, Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley has been jailed on charges of drug possession and receiving and concealing stolen property.

Officers found marijuana and guns in the home.\nThe Buffalo Bills improved to 3-0 this season despite blowing a 28-3 lead in the second half. Josh Allen hit Tyler Kroft for a three-yard touchdown pass with 15 seconds left to give the Bills a 35-32 win over the Rams. Allen's fourth touchdown pass of the day came after Los Angeles scored 29 consecutive points to go ahead by four. The Rams were poised to match the third-largest comeback in NFL regular season history after Jared Goff led the team to touchdowns on four straight drives, capped by Darrell Henderson's 1-yard run with 4:30 remaining. Los Angeles almost got the ball back on downs in the closing seconds, but a pass interference call gave Buffalo new life.\nElsewhere in the NFL:\nNick Mullens threw for 343 yards and a touchdown to lead the 49ers to their second win at MetLife, 36-9 over the error-prone and winless Giants.

The Bears improved to 3-0 for the first time since 2013 after becoming the latest team to rally from a huge second-half deficit versus Atlanta.\nDK Metcalf made up for a huge first-half blunder by catching a 29-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson with 1:47 remaining in the Seahawks' 38-31 victory against the Cowboys.

Former Bronco Shaq Barrett celebrated his return to Denver with a pair of sacks, one for a safety.\nStephen Gostkowski made his career-high sixth field goal of game, a 55-yarder with 1:48 left that lifted undefeated Tennessee to a 31-30 victory over the Vikings.

A person familiar with the investigation tells The Associated Press that the employee entered the Raiders locker room without a credential following Monday night's 34-24 win over New Orleans.\nThe Patriots have placed starting center David Andrews and rookie linebacker Josh Uche on injured reserve. Andrews sat out practice all week with a hand injury and Uche was hampered by a foot injury.\nThere are a host of changes in The Associated Press football poll after several conferences changed course and elected to play a season.

"original": "Today I had a 10:30 appointment with a phycologist for clearance to proceed with the treatment. I started out by telling her that my story may be a new one for her. She later told me that when I said that she thought… No way… Well, way!\nI’m pretty sure most of is that have lost loved ones in tragedies such as 9/11 are capable of handling the unknown in ways that others don’t understand . For me, I try to stay prepared for the parts of a situation that are known. Sometimes that causes me to try and control the uncontrollable. Thankfully when that happens, I have a plethora of loved ones to pull me back. Apparently, that is very healthy… Who knew. I told her of my fiancé and father in laws loss on 9/11, I told her of my mothers battle and conquering of esophageal cancer, my best friend destroying the leukemia that tried to take her (you go Jen), my adoption of Rosie and my diagnosis of MS. I told her of each medication that failed and how I sought out a way to end the life altering side effects. I told her of the family and friends that support and help me everyday. She sat there as most do with her mouth open as I spoke. She said your story is both tragic and uplifting. I said my story is just one filled with blessings. At the end she told me to write a book. I think that means I am cleared. She was an lovely woman and I am very glad I had the chance to meet with her.\nMore to come later as I meet with Dr Burt for the final clearance at 3:00. Please pray all goes well. I have come so close to turn back now."

Harvey, Attorney General and Chair, Markus Green, Attorney General's Designee.\nAuthority: N.J.S.A. 52:17B-170e(6),(13), (14), (17), (21) and (22); 52:17B-171a(5);.\n2A:4A-31; 2A:4A-32; 2A:4A-37; 2A:4A-60; 2A:4A-88 and 47:1A-1 et seq.\nCalendar Reference: See Summary below for explanation of exception to calendar\nProposal Number: PRN 2005-302.\nComments with respect to this proposal must be received on or before November 18,\n2005 and must be submitted in writing. One copy must be directed to following addresses, as indicated:\nSpecial Assistant to the Executive Director\nNew Jersey Juvenile Justice Commission\n1001 Spruce Street - Suite 202\nTrenton, New Jersey 08638\nValerie L. Egar\nSpecial Assistant to the Executive Director\nNew Jersey Juvenile Justice Commission\nP.O. Box 107\nTrenton, New Jersey 08625-0107\nThe agency proposal follows:\nThe New Jersey Juvenile Justice Commission (the \"Commission\") is proposing new\nrules, N.J.A.C. 13:94, Detention of Juveniles in Municipal and Other Adult Facilities, to implement the\nCommission's authority under its enabling legislation, N.J.S.A. 52:17B-169 et seq., and the New Jersey Code\nof Juvenile Justice, N.J.S.A 2A:4A-20 et seq. (the \"Juvenile Code\") to specify the circumstances and\nconditions under which juveniles may be detained at police stations and similar facilities that hold\ndetained adults and juveniles for brief periods of time. The new rules codify protections that are also\nconsistent with provisions contained in the Federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of\n2002, P.L. 107-273, 42 U.S.C. 5601 et seq., (the \"JJDP Act\").\nPursuant to the JJDP Act, the State receives and administers annual grants from the\nU.S. Department of Justice, dedicated to funding both state and local delinquency prevention and\nintervention strategies. These strategies include programs to reduce truancy, discourage gang affiliation\nand violence, provide youth and family case management, and provide after-school recreational and other\nyouth services. In Federal Fiscal Year 2004, grants under the Federal Act amounted to approximately $2.0\nmillion. The Commission is the administrative entity that receives and manages these grants on behalf of\nAs a condition of these grants, the Commission is required to monitor jail and\nlockup facilities for compliance with three \"core protections\" for juveniles. Those core protections are:\n1. The deinstitutionalization of juveniles detained for conduct that does not\nconstitute criminal behavior (for example, truants and runaways);\n2. The maintenance of sight and sound separation between juveniles and adults being held in secure custody;\n3. A six-hour limitation with respect to how long a juvenile may be held in secure custody.\nAccordingly, the proposed rules codify procedures for monitoring compliance with\nthese \"core protections\" at the facilities described above.\nA description of the proposed new rule follows.\nSubchapter 1 provides the general provisions of the chapter, including purpose,\nscope, definitions of terms, applicable legal authorities and the Commission's oversight authority and\nSubchapter 2 sets out special conditions and restrictions that apply when juveniles\nare being held by police, specifically with respect to the three core protections. In addition the proposed\nrules address the nature and scope of supervision that must be afforded to detained juveniles, reasonable\nexceptions for extraordinary circumstances, and mandatory log/record keeping standards.\nThe proposal is not subject to the calendar requirements of N.J.S.A. 52:14B-3(4)\nbecause the agency is providing a 60 day comment period, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 1:30-3.3(a)5.\nArrested and detained juveniles are children. In recognition of this fact, both\nFederal and State law place a number of restrictions on how a juvenile is to be treated when detained by\npolice. They include maintaining strict sight and sound separation between detained juveniles and securely\nheld adults, limiting how long a juvenile may be detained before being processed either to release or to\ncounty detention facilities, and requiring that detained juveniles be under observation for their own\nprotection. The proposed new rules will have a positive social impact, both by setting out a regulatory\nscheme that captures all applicable restrictions in one place, and by formalizing State monitoring of\nlock-up facilities for compliance with those restrictions, so that juveniles will have some safeguards and\nprotections as children within the juvenile justice system.\nThe proposed new rules will have a positive economic impact by helping to ensure\nfunding to the State by the Federal government, under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act\nof 2002, P.L. 107-273, 42 U.S.C. 5601 et seq. The proposed new rules will not result in any negative\neconomic impact, because additional funding is not necessary to implement these rules. The cost of meeting\nand maintaining the requirements established by these rules will be met through the routine budgetary\nprocess, with monies allocated by the State.\nFederal Standards Statement\nA Federal standards analysis is not required because the new rules are being\nproposed to ensure compliance with, and to conform with, the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Justice\nPrevention Act of 2002, P.L. 107-273, 42 U.S.C. 5601 et seq.They do not exceed any existing Federal\nThe Juvenile Justice Commission does not anticipate that any jobs will be generated\nor lost if the proposed new rules are adopted.\nAgriculture Industry Impact\nThe proposed new rules will have no impact on the agriculture industry in New\nRegulatory Flexibility Statement\nThe proposed new rules will impose no reporting, recordkeeping, or other compliance\nrequirements, and will have no other impact upon small businesses, as defined under the Regulatory\nFlexibility Act, N.J.S.A. 52:14B-16 et seq. Therefore, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required.\nFacilities regulated under the proposed rules are operated exclusively by governmental units and public\nadministrative bodies. In addition, beneficiaries and sub-beneficiaries of Federal funding received in\nconnection with the proposed rules are all either governmental units or governmental agencies.\nSmart Growth Impact\nThe proposed new rules will have no impact on the achievement of smart growth and\nimplementation of the State Development and Redevelopment Plan.\nFull text of the proposed new rules follows:\nDETENTION OF JUVENILES IN MUNICIPAL\nAND OTHER ADULT FACILITIES\nSUBCHAPTER 1.GENERAL REQUIREMENTS\n13:94-1.1 Purpose and scope\n(a) The purposes of this chapter are:\n1.

"original": "For the first time in my composing career, I hit a writer’s block some months ago which made me decide to put aside my proposed second violin concerto and have a break. After a vacation in UK (May/June 2015) and on returning to the US I felt able to compose again but decided to embark on something altogether different – a sonata for cello and piano. This is proceeding really well and quickly. The first movement is complete and the second is almost finished. I feel two more movements will be appropriate.\nDelighted to say I have just completed my first attempt at a string trio, a difficult genre necessitating the discipline of composing without the resources a second violin offers. Feel I have been successful and am very pleased with it.\nI’ve now moved on to a second violin concerto, an exciting prospect."

"original": "Ellis Middle students make carp kites on ‘Children’s Day’\nThe sixth-grade art students at Robert E. Ellis Middle School in Hendersonville recently celebrated the Japanese holiday “Children’s Day” on May 5. The young artists made carp kites known as “Koinobori” under the instruction of their art teacher, Stephanie Preston.\nThe sixth-graders’ kites were installed outside of the school that day for the community to see.\nIn Japan, Children’s Day is set aside for families to celebrate their children by wishing them strength, happiness and a long life. The carp fish is symbolic to the Japanese for overcoming obstacles since carp swim against the current. Kites are made on Children’s Day in the shape of carp fish for each child; when the wind blows they appear to be “swimming.”"

"original": "Dear Pippa Biddle,\nI recently saw your blog post about “voluntourism” and it irritated me enough to want to respond. I promise to talk about myself and my experiences as much as you did, and maybe together we can make some kind of conclusion – a part of writing that you kind of skipped out on.\nIn high school, I travelled to Tanzania as part of a school trip. There were 14 white girls, 1 black girl who, to her frustration, was called white by almost everyone we met in Tanzania, and a few teachers/chaperones.\nAh, okay. This is the obligatory sentence about the evils of whitey that justifies the headline. Well, in high school I worked almost full time at Alexandria Buick Pontiac GMC. I was one of the only white people in the dealership, FWIW.\n$3000 bought us a week at an orphanage, a half built library, and a few pickup soccer games, followed by a week long safari.\n$3000 would probably have bought my friends and me a shit ton of Grey Goose and maybe a weeklong beach trip. However, my public high school definitely taught me I shouldn’t start sentences with dollar signs. This isn’t a Ke$ha song.\nOur mission while at the orphanage was to build a library.\nMy mission at Buick was to build a better car buying experience.\nTurns out that we, a group of highly educated private boarding school students were so bad at the most basic construction work that each night the men had to take down the structurally unsound bricks we had laid and rebuild the structure so that, when we woke up in the morning, we would be unaware of our failure. It is likely that this was a daily ritual. Us mixing cement and laying bricks for 6+ hours, them undoing our work after the sun set, re-laying the bricks, and then acting as if nothing had happened so that the cycle could continue.\nTurns out that I, as a high school student who skipped math and psych class regularly, was not qualified to save GM from going bankrupt.\nLook, Pippa, I don’t even know where to start here – likely because your sentence was so fucking long I got confused.\nTurns out that you, as a group of presumably rich high school students with no background in manual labor, weren’t qualified TO FUCKING BUILD HOUSES???? No. Freaking. Way.\nWhat “men” were doing this?? The men that organized your trip? Local men that worked alongside you? I don’t know, because you never tell us.\nAnd how do you know that this was happening? Your only evidence is that you were unaware and “it [was] likely.” That isn’t exactly the strongest argument I’ve ever heard.\nBasically, we failed at the sole purpose of our being there. It would have been more cost effective, stimulative of the local economy, and efficient for the orphanage to take our money and hire locals to do the work, but there we were trying to build straight walls without a level.\nBasically, if your sole purpose of volunteer work is to build a structure and not to have a lasting impact on people’s lives, you’re doing it wrong.\nBasically, if your sole purpose was to do something you had no experience doing, you’re ridiculously naïve.\nBasically, if your budget was such shit that no one bought a level, you should really take this up with the organization that sent you.\nThat same summer, I started working in the Dominican Republic at a summer camp I helped organize for HIV+ children. Within days, it was obvious that my rudimentary Spanish set me so far apart from the local Dominican staff that I might as well have been an alien.\nSo you went to Tanzania to build a library, and then you went to the Dominican Republic to help HIV+ children? You don’t speak Spanish, and I assume you don’t speak Swahili (what the hell did your fancy education even get you?). Where is the consistency or your passion? You’ve made it clear that helping people wasn’t your priority in Tanzania…just building a library. You don’t bring skilled work to the table, you don’t have a medical background, you don’t speak another language…why aren’t you picking a region you care about or a task you care about and focusing on that?\nMy background is in Arabic. I majored in it in college (along with Middle East Studies), and I minored in French. I continue my education now with conferences and independent research on the region. I have many friends from the region, and I’ve traveled extensively. I have an understanding of certain countries and their cultures (Lebanon, Syria, Pakistan) from my studies, my travels, and my friends. If I had the ability, I would go to Lebanon and help out with Syrian refugees, even if just for a week…but I likely wouldn’t do any volunteer work in Tanzania or the Dominican Republic.\nHowever, I have stopped attending having finally accepting that my presence is not the godsend I was coached by non-profits, documentaries, and service programs to believe it would be.\nThis is the only sentence in your entire post that you place blame in the correct place.\nIt turns out that I, a little white girl, am good at a lot of things. I am good at raising money, training volunteers, collecting items, coordinating programs, and telling stories. I am flexible, creative, and able to think on my feet. On paper I am, by most people’s standards, highly qualified to do international aid. But I shouldn’t be.\nIt turns out that you, as a little white girl, aren’t actually listing any qualities that would make you good at volunteering in developing nations. The Peace Corps has its fair share of problems, but I would wager it’s considered the standard for international volunteer work…and what you just named has nothing to do with what they’re looking for. Instead, they list things like “those with specialized skills” and “Spanish or French” speaking abilities. Last I checked honkies can speak French and have specialized skills. Even the little folk. Even the ones with vaginas.\nBefore you sign up for a volunteer trip anywhere in the world this summer, consider whether you possess the skill set necessary for that trip to be successful. If yes, awesome. If not, it might be a good idea to reconsider your trip. Sadly, taking part in international aid where you aren’t particularly helpful is not benign. It’s detrimental. It slows down positive growth and perpetuates the “white savior” complex that, for hundreds of years, has haunted both the countries we are trying to ‘save’ and our (more recently) own psyches.\nPippa, why is your only blame on the people who just want to help? Why is your knee jerk reaction to talk about white savior complexes, instead of focusing on the crappy organizations that accept these kids into their programs? The organizations that don’t make an effort to match people up with something that they could actually connect to? At NO POINT here have you backed up your claims of white people being the problem. I suppose on your little high school trip the black girl rocked it and was totally effective? If not, how can you call this white savior complex? How do you explain her? What the fuck issues do you have?\nI’m sorry you didn’t find whatever you were looking for on your trips, and I’m sorry that your private boarding school didn’t produce a better writer."

In prime position, at the traditional working harbour, is the newly developed Two Oceans Waterfront.\nThe Two Oceans Waterfront is set to become the tourism hub for visitors ticking off their bucket list: “the southernmost tip of Africa” item. Recently opened, right on the beach at this iconic site, is the 600+ seater Catch Cook Restaurant & Beach Bar.\nWith an indoor and outdoor seating area, patrons can chill out with their feet in the sand and watch the local fishermen go about their daily tasks, or dig in and indulge in the “eat all you can” buffet breakfast. A festive season menu allows for a casual setup for guests do a self-service order, delivered to their table.\nThe restaurant is open daily from 08h00 to 22h00, is Halaal friendly, and although focussing on seafood, the menus include burgers, steaks, beef ribs, as well as some great vegetarian options.

"original": "I was eleven years old when my mother enrolled me in the Boy Scouts of America. There was a Troop at my elementary school, and eleven was the minimum age to become a Tenderfoot Scout, the beginning rank in the Scouts at the time I joined. I don’t recall asking my mother if I could join the Scouts. I’m not even sure if I knew they existed. But I think it was part of my mother’s efforts to socialize me. At about the same time, she signed me up for Little League baseball as well.\nMy scouting career was brief. I went camping once, and also attended a regional meeting where boys received their merit badges. The problem was that I could not get the hang of knot tying, an essential requirement of scout-craft. As I recall, there were three knots I needed to learn: the square knot, the clove hitch, and the half hitch. One thing, however, from my short time in the Scouts, has stayed with me, the Scout Motto: “Be Prepared.” For some reason, the idea resonated with me.\nOnce Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts, was asked for what should a Boy Scout be prepared. He replied: “Why, for any old thing.” It’s a surprising answer when you think about it. Is it possible to be prepared for “any old thing?”\nMy favorite book when I was a child, and still my favorite book, my comfort book, is Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days. I re-read it every couple of years. I’ve read it aloud to my wife, who seemed to enjoy it enormously. To her, I read the annotated “The Whole Story” edition published by Viking with illustrations by Jame’s Prunier. (Prunier spells his first name with the apostrophe).\nI think I love the book so much because its main character, Phileas Fogg, perfectly exemplifies the idea of always being prepared. The description below is from the translation done by Frederick Paul Walter and is the version I am currently reading.\nPhileas Fogg was one of those mathematically correct people who are never in a rush, always prepared, economical in their every step and movement. He never took a stride too many and always went by the shortest route. He didn’t stare off into space. He didn’t indulge in unnecessary actions. Nobody ever saw him excited or agitated. He was the least hurried person on earth, yet he always arrived on the dot. Even so, you can appreciate why he lived a solitary existence, an existence free of all social intercourse, as it were. He knew that friction was a part of life, and since friction is time-consuming, he never rubbed anybody the wrong way.Jules Verne, Around the World in 80 Days, trans. by F. P. Walker\nOh, how I admire Phileas Fogg! It’s still a fair question, though: Is it possible to be prepared for everything that comes your way?\nAfter my time in the Army, I spent a couple of years at Mississippi State University studying philosophy before applying to graduate school. It’s tempting when learning philosophy to try on a philosopher’s world-view, to take it for a test drive. I became enamored with the teachings of the late Australian philosopher, D. M. Armstrong. I was drawn especially to his assumption, stated in Sketch for a Systematic Metaphysics, that “all that exists is the space time world, the physical world as we say.” I have to confess, however, that it didn’t fit me at all. My test drive crashed on the rocks of reality. Here’s what happened.\nDuring a routine physical examination, blood was drawn from me and sent to a lab for analysis. Not long afterward, I received a note from the lab that I found alarming. It said that I needed to make an appointment with my doctor as soon as possible to discuss an anomaly in my blood-test results. Well, I wasn’t prepared for that. All of a sudden, I saw my life slipping away, my body returning to the soil, and me, the most important person alive, descending into an abyss, an extinction — a nothingness. Professor Armstrong’s philosophy slipped from my mind as easily and quickly as clothes come off on the way to a pond in the scorching heat of a Mississippi summer.\nDon’t get me wrong. My reaction had absolutely nothing to say about the truth or falsehood of D. M. Armstrong’s philosophy. It said something only about me, about my inability to use it to be prepared for what everyone faces. Eventually, life will end; my life will end. Pragmatically, if for no other reason, I needed to find a different philosophy, a way of life that would help me prepare for the end of my life, odd as that sounds.\nThere is an astonishingly beautiful passage in Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Act V, Scene 2. It is a dialogue between Hamlet and his friend Horatio concerning Hamlet’s upcoming fencing match with Laertes.\nYou will lose this wager, my lord.\nI do not think so: since he went into France, I\nhave been in continual practise: I shall win at the\nodds. But thou wouldst not think how ill all’s here\nabout my heart: but it is no matter.\nNay, good my lord,—\nIt is but foolery; but it is such a kind of\ngain-giving, as would perhaps trouble a woman.\nIf your mind dislike any thing, obey it: I will\nforestall their repair hither, and say you are not\nNot a whit, we defy augury: there’s a special\nprovidence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now,\n’tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be\nnow; if it be not now, yet it will come: the\nreadiness is all: since no man knows aught of what he\nleaves, what is’t to leave betimes? Let be.\nI find this passage incredibly moving. And here is an equally moving performance of it by Kenneth Branagh as Hamlet, and Nicholas Farrell as Horatio.\nMay you be prepared for all that comes your way.\nAll the best!"

"original": "Written by: Leah Moxley Teigrob, Gallery Assistant\nLooking around my son’s preschool classroom, the walls are filled with the artwork of his classmates. Naturally, I scan the room for his name, and find among masterpieces, the crude depictions of my own family. Little legless blobs are noticeably less refined than the (slightly) more detailed work of his peers. Try as I might, the comparisons are inevitable. My heart sinks a little. Surely with an artist as a mother, my son shouldn’t be lagging behind in his drawing skills. One of my greatest joys as a parent is creating with my son. But my philosophy as an artist, mother and as a teacher is to leave room for creativity within the technical aspects of art making. I teach my students that there is no right way to paint a tree. I rarely correct kids when they start using materials in an unconventional way, even if it’s at the expense of those materials. When art is broken down into its most basic elements, you can find an infinite number of ways to paint a tree. My son is one of the most creative people I know. Maybe his blob family is a better reflection of his creativity than of his technical ability to draw. And aren’t ideas just as important as skill in the professional art world as well?\nWe’ve all overheard the comment “my kid could do that” in regards to what many would consider “high art,” and they may not be wrong, but that really isn’t the point, is it? I think of the work of Saskatchewan artist Ruth Cuthand. Her diverse practice includes both rudimentary acrylic paintings and incredibly detailed bead work.\nOn her website, Cuthand writes of the significance of her approach:\n“In my early work, I adopted a consistently anti-aesthetic stance, refusing to be stereotyped by forcefully rejecting the authority of both Western high art and traditional Aboriginal art and design. In true anarchic style, however, I borrow freely from both when it suits my purposes.”\nHer beadwork also plays a role in the conversation of what constitute high art, one that arises often in the world of fine craft.\n“Adopting the traditional craft of beading in my recent work was a way to continue to centre the Aboriginal woman in my art while addressing other issues of concern. Maintaining the anti-aesthetic principles on which my practice was founded, I have traded crudeness of style for materials and techniques that have long been denied status as serious art.”\nWhen it comes to fine craft, technical aspects are, of course, highly regarded. But part of the technical side of craft pertains to pushing the boundaries of the chosen medium. Much like a child in a preschool classroom, artists’ learning often arises from times of playful interaction with their materials. In my own practice, my best work is often a result of these times of play. The work is more about the free-flow of ideas than the tedious application of paint. When artists learn to trust their instincts instead of their instructions, we flourish. I won’t be taking my son’s crude family portraits off of the fridge any time soon."

Even then, we usually get more ice than snow in North Carolina. Ice means a definite rest day for me since it also limits me from driving to the gym and working out inside. A rest day is also better than slipping and getting injured. On the other hand, we finally had some fresh snow with very little ice this weekend so I decided to give it a try and it was a surprisingly do-able run!\nThese are my 3 main takeaways from my run in the snow:\n- Take it slow.\n- Run in short strides with your feet closer to the ground.\n- Focus on the ground in front of you – be aware of icy areas, cracks in the snow, holes, etc."

"original": "Don’t look now, but I bought another bluetooth speaker. Fresh from my review of the Divoom Onbeat 500 I still can’t believe it but I ended up buying another bluetooth speaker. This time I ended up getting newly-released Bose SoundLink Color. This is my fourth bluetooth speaker to date. But after hearing the sound from the Color I just had to get it. Let’s see if, in this case, four’s a charm.\n- - Bluetooth wireless connectivity\n- - Voice prompts for pairing\n- - 8 hrs battery life\n- - USB charging\n- - 5 colors\n- - 1.25 lbs\n- - US$129.95\nAt first glance the SoundLink color does not look like your typical Bose-designed product. First of all, it’s made of plastic and comes in 5 different colors. Don’t worry though because the plastic material does not feel cheap and as a result it’s even lighter than the SoundLink Mini. If you’re looking for portability then I would choose this over the Mini. Also having a choice of colors is nice. Personally, I like the black and red one.\n|SoundLink Color vs Samsung Galaxy Note 3|\nFeatures and Sound Quality:\nOne of my biggest gripes and the reason I never bought the SoundLink Mini was because of the proprietary charger that you had to use. If you’re using it for travel the last thing you want is an extra bulky charger. It seems Bose listened to its customers and they finally included a standard USB to Micro USB charger which means I can use the same charger as my phone or tablet. They also increased the battery life to 8hours (Mini has only 6 hours). Other interesting new features are the voice prompts and the ability to remember the last 8 devices. This is quite useful when sharing the speakers with friends.\nAll of these new features are great but in the end it’s really all about sound quality and I must say that it is very good considering its size and reasonable price (well I say reasonable compared to other Bose products). Comparing it to my Divoom Onbeat 500 at low volume it’s hard to notice much difference but as you increase the volume you will clearly hear the SoundLink Color start to pull away. It definitely has a richer base, the mids and highs are more defined and vocals are a lot clearer. To be fair, the cost of the Divoom is half the price so it’s still a good buy considering. Now compared to the SoundLink Mini it’s very hard to notice much difference but the Mini does have slightly punchier base but that doesn’t mean the Color feels lacking. It still has that Bose signature base punch. Vocals on the Color at least to my ears seems clearer compared on the Mini.\nIf you are looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker at the US$100-150 range then this should be on the top of your list. Bose really did a great job in bringing its signature quality sound down to this price level. The Mini still sounds slightly better but it is also 35% more expensive. If you factor in the better battery life and the USB charging I would still choose the Color over the Mini.\n- - Signature Bose sound quality\n- - USB charging\n- - Price\n- - 8 hrs battery life is good but competitors are already at 10-15 hrs\n- - No case included\n- - No NFC\n- - No speaker phone function"

"original": "STORY LABEL: LOCAL REALTORS\nHEADLINE: Fund will hire help with land use questions\nNUT: Local Realtors put together an $18,000 fund to protect private property rights.\nBy Julie McCormick\nThe nuts and bolts of growth management are getting too complicated for local Realtors, who voted earlier this month to hire land use attorney Keith Dearborn from the high-powered Seattle firm of Bogle and Gates to help them out.\nThe Kitsap County Association of Realtors doesn't anticipate going to court over the ongoing evolution of new land use rules under the state Growth Management Act, said the real estate group's leaders. But they need some outside expertise to help wade through the morass of regulations that many see as a threat to private property rights.\n\"We don't have any land use attorneys on staff,\" said Silverdale Realtor Frank Leach, land use chairman of the 740-member group. \"We're hiring legal counsel to give opinions on what's currently taking place on land use issues.\"\nMembers voted Dec. 3 to assess themselves $25 this year, which will give them about $18,000 for legal help on land use issues.\nLeach and Vivian Bodle, president of the Realtors, said the Kitsap group is only doing what their organizations in other counties have been doing for years.\nBoth Snohomish and King counties have government affairs specialists on staff, and King's is also an attorney. Clark County has been assessing members for 12 years for legal help.\nBodle said she and Leach have had the primary responsibility for researching and commenting on new regulations as they are written at the local government level.\nAnd it's hard to keep up, said Bodle. \"The laws that have been mandated by the Growth Management Act have created a need for a great variety of specialists,\" said Bodle. \"We recognize when we need professional help.\"\nLocal homebuilders also hire legal help when they need it, said Mike Hancock, president of the Homebuilders Association of Kitsap County.\n\"I've tried weeding through a lot of the documents myself and find it extremely difficult to deal with,\" Hancock said.\nThe organization currently is considering a legal appeal of Bainbridge Island's new critical areas ordinances, which go quite a bit farther in regulation than those now in process at the county level, Hancock said.\nMany have speculated since the 1990 and 1991 growth management legislation was passed, the most extensive in the state's history, that its real meaning will be clarified only in court.\nThat depends on how good a job local governments do, said Wes Lynch, communications director for the state Association of Realtors.\nLast week, the first shots in that anticipated war were fired with a challenge by a state builders group of the state's wetlands definitions.\nThe state's decision to stick with more restrictive federal regulations now under reassessment at the national level also were a sticking point for local groups.\n\"We're concerned with what we perceive as takings of private property,\" said Lynch.\nThe wetlands issue \"may constitute a taking in our opinion. We might be party to a challenge of that issue,\" Lynch said."

"original": "While “pest proofing” your home is not an attainable goal, these 5 fall pest prevention tips will help keep unwanted pest out of your home.\nFall Pest Proofing Tips\n1. Check all screens for holes. If you are like most families who like to enjoy the gentle breeze of the cooler autumn nights, this tip could be one of the biggest in preventing unwanted guests. Spend a few minutes this weekend before you decide to prop open the door or throw open the window to check the condition of your screens. Small holes and even gaps in coverage around screening, will allow occasional invaders such as lady bugs, stick bugs, and roaches into the house. If you find a tear or hole, most DIY stores will have replacement screen for at home pest control.\n2. Leaf Clutter. While those beautiful orange and brown leaves on your trees look great as a backdrop to your home, the leaves around your foundation are offering insulated protection to insects. Insects like smoky brown roaches and American roaches are seeking warmer shelter, and your leaf pile is a great source of warmth. Since leaves are dropping and piling up on your foundation, leaves are also clogging your gutters. Check your gutters regularly in the fall to make sure you are free from clogs. Clogs can cause insect infestations, as well as water intrusion if not properly maintained.\n3. Seal Gaps. Many insects and rodents are looking for water and shelter as temperature drops and water sources dry up. The rule of thumb for mice is that any hole bigger than the diameter of your thumb is a possible entry way for mice. Seal up any possible entry ways like plumbing penetrations with copper mesh or steel wool. Installing door sweeps and making sure there are no gaps in your door jabs can also help thwart intruders like spiders, roaches, and ants.\n4. Caulk. Something as simple as caulking around windows will help keep ants at bay. Ants are foraging in the fall for water just as much as food, and will seek out the best way to get to a source for nourishment. Caulking windows can decrease the likelihood of an autumn ant invasion.\n5. Pruning. Vegetation such as crepe myrtles and vines are know for being a haven for ant populations. When these havens are allowed to grow onto the structure of you house ants have a direct, almost invisible, highway in and out of the structure. The American cockroach, also known as the Palmetto Bug, like to climb into trees and then drop from limbs that overhand the roof line of the house. For the reasons given make sure that no vegetation touches the structure. It is recommended that there is a twelve to twenty-four inch gap between the house and any vegetation. For tree limbs, draw an imaginary line straight up from the roof line towards the sky. If any branches interrupt this plane, prune the tree back. This step will also limit branches from falling onto or through your roof during a severe storm.\nImplementing these 5 fall pest prevention tips will help prevent unwanted pest from entering your home. When you combine these steps with the Palmetto Exterminators superior quarterly pest control service, you can rest assured that your home will be pest free. If you are experiencing unwanted pests, please give one of our eight locations of pest exterminators a call today so we can start protecting your health and property."

These workshops are usually held at the Bear Library, close to home in Middletown.\nHowever, last week I taught a workshop at the New Castle Library in Old New Castle which is a beautiful, quaint little town about 30 minutes from my home.\nThe class was very interactive and I was glad that all of these “future Delaware bloggers” came out on such a beautiful day. Because it was such a beautiful Saturday, after the workshop, Beverly Powers, an attendee, author and friend of mine decided to have lunch, stroll through the town and then take a walk through Battery Park.\nWe decided to have lunch at Jessop’s Tavern a small Colonial Style restaurant where I ordered a delicious salad topped with shrimp and Beverly ordered the same but with salmon.\nThe salads were both large enough to satisfy our hunger as well as filling enough to justify the walk down to Battery Park.\nWe stopped along to way to take pictures as I had never been to Old New Castle during the day and after living in Delaware for over 30 years it was fun being a tourist in my own state.\nOld New Castle is a beautiful place so the next time I visit, I will ask hubby if he would care to join me.\nAs a matter of fact, starting in July there will be free summer concerts in Battery Park on Wednesdays, so we will definitely come back for one of them.\nIt was a bit windy once we got to Battery Park but there were a lot of people out and about either walking, having a family picnic, reading, or just relaxing on a park bench enjoying the beautiful sunshine. We took the opportunity to take more pictures and to broadcast few Facebook Livestream videos.\nAs we returned to our vehicles we peeked into the windows of several stores that were closed due to the lateness of the day.\nWe picked up a tourist brochure which were available outside of the Mayor’s office and read about the Historic New Castle Heritage Trail with tours on Wednesday through Sunday. These audio self-guided tours are also available online at newcastlehistory.org\nIt was fun being a tourist in my state of Delaware and I will definitely make plans to come back when the shoppes are open.\nHow about you, have you ever been a tourist in your own town?"

"original": "Jars of Clay\nJars of Clay is a Christian rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. They met at Greenville College in Greenville, Illinois.\nDan Haseltine, Steve Mason, Charlie Lowell and Matt Bronleewe formed Jars of Clay in the early 1990s. Charlie Lowell first met Dan Haseltine after noticing that he was wearing a Toad the Wet Sprocket shirt. Pursuing a career in music together was not necessarily their original goal; some of the first songs they wrote together were for music and recording classes they were taking at the time. Their second guitarist Matt Bronleewe joined some time later, and drummer Joseph Quevedo occasionally joined them for some of their early public performances. While in college playing together at local Christian coffee houses, Jars gained quite a reputation for their very original arrangement of \"Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer\" which had been deftly adapted to the tune of Nirvana's \"Smells Like Teen Spirit\".\nIn 1994, the band submitted a demo to a talent competition run by the Gospel Music Association and were selected as finalists. They traveled to Nashville to perform and won the contest. Back in Greenville, they self-released a limited-run of the same demo, which they named Frail, after their song of the same name. The buzz from their performance in Nashville and the demo's popularity resulted in offers from record labels, so the band decided to drop school and move to Nashville. At this time, Bronleewe left the band to finish school and settle down with his fiancée. He was replaced with Matt Odmark, Lowell's childhood friend and fellow McQuaid Jesuit High School alum.\nThe band has gone on to release 10 studio albums, 2 live projects, and 10 EPs, along with three compilations. The majority of their albums have charted in the top 10 on numerous charts, including Billboard's Top Christian Albums and the Billboard 200.\nJars of Clay has been successful in being nominated for and winning several awards, including prestigious Grammy Awards and several of the Christian music awards, known as the GMA Dove Awards. Some of these successes have been collaborative efforts, including two City on a Hill albums and the inspired collaboration for the 2005 film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The group has won five Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI) awards.\nIn June 2009, Jars of Clay was named as one of PeaceByPeace.com's first peace heroes.\nJars of Clay. (2011, November 2). In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 13:28, November 16, 2011, from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jars_of_Clay&oldid=458673101\nNASHVILLE, Tenn.— Multi-Platinum and GRAMMY® Award-winning Gray Matters/Essential Records recording artist Jars of Clay has announced their highly anticipated 2012 Fall tour, featuring special guests Sleeping At Last and rising newcomer Mariah McManus.

"original": "I do not pretend to be a tea expert. More renowned, Englisher minds than mine have given specific guidelines for proper tea preparation and consumption. I drink tea like an American. An American who doesn’t let the English boss her around. An American who wants a moderate amount of caffeine, is nominally avoiding artificial sweeteners, and doesn’t have time for froufrou loose leaves, timers, and temperature control. These are my American Tea Tips.\n- If you drink even one cup of tea a week, get an electric water kettle. Sure, you can use the microwave, but that appliance makes boiling water a chore. Is the water heated thoroughly? Who can tell? Is the water boiling over? Now you have sopping to do. Did you microwave your mug? Did you forget how hot the handle gets? Did you drop your mug on the ground? Did you curse the heavens? Electric kettles are foolproof. Also, microwaves beep, boop, chime, ding, etc. Electric kettles make two sounds: boiling and not boiling. Worth every penny.\n- Green tea generally tastes like grass. To overcome this flavor with sweetener, you need levels that rival Coca-Cola. That’s why the bottled green tea at convenience stores or the kind Panera sells tastes so good. Instead of fighting the grass with sweet, I recommend leaning into the tang with sour. Add lemon or lime juice to green tea (hot or cold, but hot is better). The juice cuts the tannic, grassy taste and makes the tea pleasant to drink. The vitamin C in the juice supposedly enhances the positive antioxidant properties of the tea (if you believe in that business). Plus, as opposed to sugar, the caloric content of lemon juice is negligible. And you barely need to stir. It is a win-win-win-win situation\n- Black tea, as Milo’s so delectably demonstrates, also needs a lot of sugar to become palatable. With regard to iced black tea, I’ll give the same instruction as green, for the same reasons. Lemon juice in unsweetened iced tea makes it instantly tasty. The amount of Splenda necessary to properly sweeten iced tea would make a lab rat cringe. (Disclaimer: The author finds Milo’s prepackaged tea with Splenda irredeemably delicious.) Either leave the sweetening to the professionals or take it unsweetened with lemon. Only a maniac takes it sweetened with lemon.\n- I can drink coffee with no sugar, and I can drink a Frappuccino; I cannot abide anything in between. The same holds true for hot black tea. While I can drink coffee black, black tea tastes much better with cream. English people might tell you to use milk. I will tell you to use Silk creamer. It pairs very well and lasts longer than dairy. (Black tea and coffee differ on one noteworthy point: When hot coffee turns tepid it tastes like floor cleaner, but cold hot black tea is still highly drinkable. You may not want to drink it cold, but the flavor is pleasant and easy to finish off. No gags.)\n- Things That Don’t Matter, Part I: How long you steep your tea. I practice the “set it and forget it” method of steeping, so mine usually steeps anywhere from 25 to 70 minutes. I’ll admit, on the later end of that spectrum it will start to taste a little funky, but the folks at fancy tea stores will recommend the steep time down to the second. This is a scare tactic to make their product seem important. Don’t give them your power.\n- Things That Don’t Matter, Part II: How hot your water is. Boil + pour. Do you think the billions of Chinese and Indian tea drinkers over the millennia used electric thermometers? Who cares? Those fancy tea slingers will dictate your temperature. Tea is not raw chicken.\n- Finally, a word of warning to those who use tea to lose weight. “Detox” and “slimming” on a box of tea is code for laxative. As a weight-loss measure, it will probably just upset your system and dehydrate you. Don’t drink a laxative tea unless you (and preferably your doctor) know what you’re doing.\nFor a long time I avoided tea because it was a hassle to prepare, didn’t taste very good, and was not preferable to other beverages. Tea is now a part of my daily routine. If tea hasn’t satisfied you in the past, I recommend giving it another shot."

"original": "‘I will appoint a time, I will judge with equity’ (2)\nThis short psalm is one of thanksgiving for divine justice, confronting human arrogance with a reminder to the proud and powerful not to rely on their own achievements for prominence or praise. In times of global crisis, whether financial, political or public health, the psalmist reminds us that:\nWhen the earth totters, with all its inhabitants, it is I who keep the pillars steady. (3)\nThat divine justice — pictured as a common ‘cup with foaming wine, well mixed’, from which all shall drink — will be a great leveller. (8)\nThe thoughtful approach of Psalms for All Seasons mentioned above is continued here in the suggestion that the psalm is quite like the Magnificat (Luke 1). So PFAS includes a nice traditional Irish version of this song, My soul cries out, to the tune Star of County Down.\nAn enthusiastic group, once released from social distancing, might enjoy singing an old hymn in the public domain, To thee, O God, we render praise, by Joseph Stephenson (1723-1810)."

"original": "From ‘Scenes and Types’ to Shehrazade and El Sham: studio photography in the Arab world\nThe value of a photograph – its principle charm, at least – is its infallible truthfulness. We may have long revelled in the poetry of the East; but this work enables us to look, as it were, upon its realities1.\nSo said the 19th century Orientalist, Sophia Poole. Poole’s perception of photography’s unique ‘claim to truth’2 was widely held by early photographers from the West, to whom the colonial realms of the Middle East provided their principal training grounds3. In her seminal book On Photography, Susan Sontag challenged the ‘presumption of veracity’ that had long been associated with photography, arguing that photographs are ‘as much an interpretation of the world as paintings and drawings’4. But to what extent is this appreciated today? Whilst many claim to have developed their understanding of the art from the idea of a visualised ‘truth’ to a moment of representation, people continue to search for realities within photographs, particularly within archives. How useful is it to mine such documents for historical and social ‘realities’? Can these momentary representations of individuals, as captured in a photograph, be extrapolated to speak of an entire society, time, or people?\nAs European photographers travelled across the Middle East in the late 19th century, the practice of photography began to take root, with studios popping up in many major cities including Istanbul, Cairo, Alexandria, Beirut, and Jerusalem5. Most of these studios catered to European tastes that demanded local ‘types’ and genre scenes with a ‘distinctive ethos of emptiness, timelessness, or backwardness,’ maintains Lucie Ryzova, ‘[that] responded to Europe’s own self-perception as the discoverer, the conqueror, and the civiliser’. However, a local market for studio portraiture naturally developed and rapidly spread. These early Middle Eastern photographers were pioneers in their field, but relatively unknown or under-studied until this century, wherein the age of ‘archive fever’ has uncovered such long-hidden or forgotten archives. Today, archives of portrait photographs have been reinvigorated for contemporary audiences, such as those of newly-acclaimed American ‘masters’ Mike Disfarmer and E.J. Bellocq.\nThe same interest in archival images can also be found in Middle Eastern photography6. Artist Akram Zaatari co-founded the Arab Image Foundation to collect, preserve, and study photographs from the Middle East, North Africa, and the Arab diaspora, and the Foundation now houses over 600,000 images. In 1999, Zaatari discovered the extensive archive of Lebanese photographer Hashem El Madani’s Studio Shehrazade in Saida, Lebanon, and has been working to document and disseminate it ever since. Zaatari describes El Madani’s studio work as ‘both descriptive and inscriptive of social identities’7, commenting on not only the visible manifestations of external realities within his images, but also on how the ability to present one’s reality in the form of photography changed the way individuals saw and projected themselves.\nStudio photography predominantly emerged as an expression of the individual; and yet, today, there is an overwhelming move to extrapolate the individual to the masses as representing a time, place, or people\nThere is truth to this: undoubtedly, the contexts of a person’s environment do affect the way they see and represent themself; but, equally, the photographic studio must be seen as a transient space. El Madani’s studio ‘created a site where individuals could act out identities using the conventions of portrait photography, with poses inspired by the desires of the sitters’8. In this respect, the studio also becomes a place where one can escape ‘realities’ and take on identities that may not have anything to do with the social and political atmospheres of their time. In a book on El Madani’s archive, art critic and theorist Stephen Wright argues that it is possible to learn about society through the details of studio photographs. ‘If one examines these “little pictures” carefully enough,’ he says, ‘the elusive bigger picture comes into focus through the hopes and aspirations of an entire population’9. This sort of ‘forensic’ analysis and extrapolation of historical photographs denies the studio of its emancipatory and creative elements; such endeavours can be seen as a return to 19th century presumptions of photographic ‘truth’. Rather than justifying the ‘reality’ of the image, perhaps there is much more to be learned from the performativity of the individual within such images, in one of the few spaces were people can express their innermost thoughts and feelings: the photography studio.\nA new collaborative body of work by Lebanese photographer Tarek Moukaddem and Palestinian textile designer Omarivs Ioseph Filivs Dinae looks more closely at the transient element of studio photography. Described by the artists as an experiment in dress and photography, Stvdio El Sham [MMXIII – MMIII] looks at performativity and identity within an attempted reconstruction of an early 20th century Levantine photography studio. For the artists, the photography studio is a place ‘where the imagination can make or unmake realities’10. The six photographs, each capturing a single, full-body image of a male subject in various outfits and with different props, do not evoke a single ‘bigger picture’ or offer a narrative (or counter-narrative) of what it is to be Arab or male today. What can be read from the images is an expression of individuality, of a presentation of alter-egos or imagined characters that appear as both ridiculous and hyper-styled. The artists describe them as resembling ‘a band of makeshift superheroes’, and their work rejects the kind of attributive analysis that Wright speaks of in his conclusions on El Madani’s archive. One should not look at the Stvdio El Sham images and generalise their representations into an overview of ‘Sham’ society, and to avoid such attempts, the photographs purposefully give no contextual details to explain the choices made in dress, poses, and props. The images capture a fleeting and unique moment of performance in a world where such acts are often restricted.\nThe same can be said about some of the images in El Madani’s archive. The Studio Shehrazade archive is vast, and mostly includes photographs made for identification purposes; some, however, are much more spontaneous and playful. Much like with Stvdio El Sham, El Madani’s subjects use dress and props in their images to imagine alternate identities and personalities. Whilst it is possible to look at these items of clothing and objects as signifiers of a certain time and place – where flared jeans and transistor radios abounded – this view somewhat discredits the agency and creativity of the sitters, generalising their images into a collective history and narrative and ascribing messages, meanings, or themes to be used as visual historical ‘evidence’.\nThe process of studio photography leaves no doubts surrounding the question of ‘truth’ and interpretive representation within photographs. The relationship between sitter and photographer, and the choice of poses, dress, and props are all layers of interpretation that, if not fully remove it, distort the ability to extract ‘truth’ and ‘fact’ from a photograph. Studio photography predominantly emerged as an expression of the individual; and yet, today, there is an overwhelming move to extrapolate the individual to the masses as representing a time, place, or people. This move runs dangerously close, one might argue, to the Orientalist scenes and types images previously discussed. In attempts to understand historical moments through visual materials, and, conversely, to contextualise visual materials with historical details, one must not lose the creative and independent individual within. In simply presenting an imagined reality and overtly-performative identities, Stvdio El Sham reminds viewers that they must avoid notions of homogeneity and stereotypes, and that photography can be an aesthetic, fun, and spontaneous moment in and of itself.\n‘Stvdio El Sham [MMXIII – MMIII]’ runs through November 8, 2015 at the Muse Gallery in London as part of the Nour Festival of Arts.\nClick here to download this article’s bibliography.\nCover image: Ahmad el Abed and his friend Rajab Arna’out photographed by Hashem El Madani sometime between 1948 and 1953 (detail; courtesy the Arab Image Foundation)."

"original": "In Virginia Woolf’s novel Night and Day (1919), the description of Ralph Denham’s bedroom includes this phrase: “The only object that threw any light upon the character of the room’s owner was a large perch, placed in the window to catch the air and sun, upon which a tame and, apparently, decrepit rook hopped dryly from side to side.” It might seem unusual to call attention to an object’s ability to reflect the fundamental nature of a fictional person. But it wasn’t unusual for Woolf; she addressed the relationship between character and material things throughout her work, most directly in the essay “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown” (1924). In every piece of writing, fictional or otherwise, persons and things coexist. Whether or not objects help a writer express the pith of a person, however, depends on both the choice of objects and their interpretation—the meaning that the writer gives them.\nIn “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown,” Woolf complained that the “Edwardian” novelists, writers of what was then the old school, had their priorities backwards. Rather than focusing primarily on character, as Woolf thought they should, they seemed more interested in social issues. To make this point, Woolf invented a hypothetical figure, Mrs. Brown, seated on a train opposite a novelist. Woolf imagined how she might begin describing Mrs. Brown and then how the Edwardians would go about it. In Woolf’s thought bubbles, the Edwardian writers would use Mrs. Brown to illustrate some larger idea rather than illustrating Mrs. Brown herself. H.G. Wells, for example, would see Mrs. Brown as embodying “the unsatisfactory condition of our primary schools.” Arnold Bennett, on the other hand, would note details of the railway carriage and speculate about Mrs. Brown’s money problems, but would also fail to describe her.\nWoolf’s complaint was not that the Edwardians focused on objects per se, but that they were hung up on things that can be objectively determined. Woolf speculated that an Edwardian novelist might give these instructions for writing about Mrs. Brown: “Begin by saying that her father kept a shop at Harrogate. Ascertain the rent. Ascertain the wages of shop assistants in the year 1878. Discover what her mother died of. Describe cancer. Describe calico.” Woolf insisted that facts alone are not the key to character or to novels. “I knew that if I began describing the cancer and the calico, my Mrs. Brown, that vision to which I cling though I know no way of imparting it to you, would have been dulled and tarnished and vanished forever.” Part of the reason the Edwardians focused on facts, Woolf suggested, was that it was relatively easy—a way of avoiding “the appalling effort of saying what I [or they] meant.”\nWoolf summed up her argument about the primacy of character and the secondary place of material things with a lovely metaphor. The Edwardians, Woolf said:\nhave laid an enormous stress upon the fabric of things. They have given us a house in the hope that we may be able to deduce the human beings who live there. To give them their due, they have made that house much better worth living in. But if you hold that novels are in the first place about people, and only in the second about the houses they live in, that is the wrong way to set about it.\nWoolf concluded that modern novelists should devote themselves to the difficult task of capturing what makes Mrs. Brown herself.\nWoolf’s screed against focusing on “the fabric of things” might seem to set up a duality between people and objects. But she doesn’t take issue with material things in themselves; rather, she criticizes the way the Edwardians listed objective things instead of offering more telling details. Woolf knows that it’s possible to use material things precisely as a means of evoking character, that a writer could give readers a house and, at the same time, give a feeling of the person living there. That’s one of many things Woolf experimented with in Jacob’s Room (1922)— describing Jacob indirectly, in part through depictions of his chamber and possessions. The title character dies at war, but Woolf doesn’t show it. When the book ends, Jacob’s mother is standing in his room and holding out “a pair of his old shoes.”\nWoolf addressed two important questions in “Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown,” which she explored throughout her work: Is character of primary importance in novels or should characters exist in service of something else? Secondly, what is the best way to communicate character, and how do houses and other material things play into that endeavor?\nIn fiction, prizing character above all else is hardly contentious. While character is certainly valued in nonfiction, too, the nonfiction writer has fewer ways of observing and expressing it because of the professional distance separating writer and subject. She can’t make up Mrs. Brown’s thoughts (without saying they are imagined). The writer also has to consider Mrs. Brown’s feelings: real people often dislike the way others perceive or portray them. Is the expression of character worth jeopardizing a writer-source relationship? Along those lines, there are certain personal questions many nonfiction writers just won’t ask, ones the novelist could pose and answer through imagination. That’s not to mention the many facts the journalist juggles along with Mrs. Brown’s je ne sais quoi. Sometimes the story really is about housing or education, rather than a particular person. Creating vivid impressions of real people in nonfiction is tricky, to say the least.\nIn this effort, Janet Malcolm succeeds brilliantly. When Malcolm first started writing for the New Yorker, she had a column about interior design, and in her later essays she often got at temperament via décor. For example, in “A Girl of the Zeitgeist” (1986), a profile of former Artforum editor Ingrid Sischy, Malcolm introduces each personage by describing his or her apartment. The essay begins:\nRosalind Krauss’s loft, on Greene Street, is one of the most beautiful living places in New York. Its beauty has a dark, forceful, willful character. Each piece of furniture and every object of use or decoration has evidently had to pass a severe test before being admitted into this disdainfully interesting room—a long, mildly begloomed rectangle with tall windows at either end, a sachlich white kitchen area in the center, a study, and a sleeping balcony. A geometric arrangement of dark-blue armchairs around a coffee table forms the loft’s sitting room, also furnished with, among other rarities, an antique armchair on splayed carved feet and upholstered in a dark William Morris fabric; an assertive all-black minimalist shaped-felt piece; a strange black-and-white photograph of ocean water; and a gold owl-shaped art deco table clock. But perhaps even stronger than the room’s aura of commanding originality is its sense of absences, its evocation of all the things that have been excluded, have been found wanting, have failed to capture the interest of Rosalind Krauss.\nIt takes another sentence or two for Krauss to actually appear, but we get a sense of her nonetheless. Malcolm goes on to quote the art critic as being “bored with” and “not interested in” Artforum, which she had left, and having thought a particular article was “very stupid” and that an ensuing correspondence about said article was “very unpleasant because you couldn’t tell which side was the more horrible.” Krauss is as selective about people and ideas as she is about furniture.\nMalcolm introduces other characters with the same formula. The odd thing, however, about “A Girl of the Zeitgeist” is that the main character’s apartment is conspicuously left out. Rather than hearing a catalogue of Sischy’s belongings, we instead find out that she “has no possessions to speak of,” and that “all her belongings (mostly books and papers) fit into a trunk that she brought to the house of the woman she lives with when she moved in four years ago, and that she has yet to unpack. The not yet unpacked trunk is a fitting metaphor for Sischy,” who moved twice as a child. Even Sischy’s lack of stuff tells us something about her.\nMaterial things may be particularly important for character development in nonfiction because they can shorten the distance between writer and subject, providing visible hints at an inner life that a source might not make explicit. They also give the nonfiction writer some opportunity for subjectivity. If Malcolm had just taken an inventory of Rosalind Krauss’s furniture, it would have been a digression. Instead, she chose to mention particular items and ignore others. Then, in her description, she made a subjective judgment: “Each piece of furniture and every object of use or decoration has evidently had to pass a severe test before being admitted.” Of course, there’s always the danger that a nonfiction writer will misinterpret such details. But she can always rely on the subject herself, using quotations to support unspoken signals of character. Deft selection and interpretation of details is the key to using material things to write about people while avoiding the factual clutter of which Woolf accused the Edwardian novelists. Furnish your writing with care.\nI think that if Malcolm had covered not interior design but fashion or sports or music, those things, not furnishings, would have served as metaphors for the people she wrote about and that the essays would have been equally good. Character is reflected in everything people do or don’t do, every item they own or lack. Anything can be brought to bear as long as capturing the qualities of a person, and not something else, is the aim.\nMrs. Brown’s furniture can reflect her character. For the neo-Edwardian, it might represent the decline in fine craftsmanship and the turn toward disposable everything. Without the writer’s interpretation, it is meaningless; it is just what keeps an old lady off the floor.\nContributorAshley P. Taylor\nASHLEY P.

"original": "Candidates for the South Gloucestershire district elections, which take place on the same day as the general election (Thursday 7th May), have been officially announced.\nPerhaps the most intriguing contest in the local wards will be in Bradley Stoke North (1 seat), where the incumbent, Ben Walker, elected in 2011 on a Conservative ticket, defends his seat after an acrimonious defection to UKIP in May 2012. Despite Cllr Walker’s relatively high public profile, gained through two terms as Bradley Stoke mayor and his current candidacy for the Filton and Bradley Stoke parliamentary seat, the Conservatives will be hoping that their candidate, Paul Hardwick (a Bradley Stoke town councillor since September 2012), can return the seat to the blue fold. The other candidates are Dawn Clode (Liberal Democrat) and Philip Edwards (Labour).\nEight candidates contest the Bradley Stoke Central and Stoke Lodge ward (2 seats), where incumbents Brian Hopkinson (Conservative) and Sarah Pomfret (Conservative) both stand for re-election. Independent candidate Rebecca Strong, who contested this ward in 2011, also stands again. Former district councillor Jon Williams (Liberal Democrat), defeated in 2011 by Ben Walker in Bradley Stoke North, is a surprise contender. The other four candidates are Anne Addison (Labour), Stephen Barr (UKIP), Sarah Drake (Liberal Democrat) and Natasha Thwaites (UKIP).\nResidents in Bradley Stoke South (2 seats) will have at least one new councillor on 8th May, as one of the incumbents, Rob Jones (Conservative), is not standing for re-election, having moved to North Somerset during his term in office. John Ashe, the other Conservative incumbent, stands again, along with party colleague Roger Avenin (a Bradley Stoke town councillor since May 2007). They are opposed by six other candidates: Davis Addison (Labour), Anthony Blake (Labour), Tom Crawley (UKIP), Derrick Powell (UKIP), Andrew White (Liberal Democrat) and Christine Willmore (Liberal Democrat).\nSome parts of the south of Bradley Stoke actually lie in the Stoke Gifford district ward (3 seats), where two of the incumbents, Brian Allinson (Conservative) and Keith Cranney (Conservative), stand for re-election. Here, the Green Party puts up its only candidate across the four local wards, Richard Burton. The other candidates are Ernie Brown (Conservative), Benjamin Campbell (Liberal Democrat), Andrew Chubb (Labour), Louis Crawley (UKIP), Ginge Dangerfield (UKIP), Dayley Lawrence (Labour), Ben Scott (Labour), Laurence Walker (Liberal Democrat) and Becky Williams (Liberal Democrat).\nBradley Stoke residents contesting out-of-town district wards include town councillor Ben Randles (Conservative) standing in Filton, town councillor Ed Rose (UKIP) standing in Patchway and Caroline Sullivan (UKIP) standing in Almondsbury.\nThe Journal understands that votes in the district elections will be counted on 8th May at Thornbury Leisure Centre, with the results being announced in the late afternoon/early evening.\nMore information and related links:\n- Find out which ward you live in (South Gloucestershire Council)\n- 2015 District Elections (The Journal)\nLast 5 posts in South Gloucestershire Council\n- South Glos council tax to rise by 5.99 percent - 15th March 2018\n- Rollout of smaller black bins under way - 7th February 2018\n- Residents congratulated for recycling efforts - 18th January 2018\n- Introduction of slimline black bins quietly postponed to next year - 4th December 2017\n- Weekly recycling starts 19th June, but new sorting rules criticised - 6th June 2017"

"original": "The two previousessays by Maureen Fries and Shirley Marchalonis are further elaborated on by Caroline Eckhardt in her analysis of one of the most popular medieval images o f women‐that of mediator. This image of women has a long and complex history and remains with us today, as evidenced in Marina Warner's Alone of All Her Sex. The link between the image of the Virgin Mary as mediatrix and women in medieval romances is a strong one, and, as Eckhardtpoints out, mayprovide us with a reasonable hypothesis of audience taste and response to the romances. If women comprised a goodly proportion of the audience, and it is likely that they did, the image of women presented to them affirmed the life‐nurturing functions in a heightened fashion; at the same timeit maintained the established and accepted relationships between men and women. In the role of intercessor, women might act, but within carefully accepted limits.\n|Original language||English (US)|\n|Number of pages||14|\n|Journal||The Journal of Popular Culture|\n|State||Published - Jan 1 1980|\nAll Science Journal Classification (ASJC) codes\n- Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous)\n- Literature and Literary Theory"

"original": "Copia Wealth Management Ltd (CWM) got into trouble when their advice to clients to transfer their pensions into a SIPP came under scrutiny.\nThe Manchester based firm advised clients to use a Discretionary Fund Manager (DFM) to invest and manage their pensions.\nThe firm promoted pension transfers into the Lifetime SIPP (now Hartley Pensions) and investments using Discretionary Funds Managers via Power of Attorney such as Smile (an Appointed Representative (AR) of Independent Portfolio Managers) via SVS Securities.\nThey also promoted pension transfers into an Easy SIPP with Gaudi (GRSL) via Valbury Capital – which is now exiting the UK market.\nCustomers started complaining when one firm after the other went into administration and the funds within their pension plans became illiquid.\nCWM argued that it was the fault of the service providers and that the investments were not managed properly. They disagreed that they had mis-sold the pension transfers or investments.\nHowever, the Financial Ombudsman Service disagreed and explained that the risk of the investments and the costs associated with the pension transfers and DFM services made the advice to transfer the pensions unsuitable.\nAs per companies house the firm has not appointed liquidators\nInvestments were made into the following funds via bonds/shares or loan notes:\nAdvanced Oncotherapy PLC\nAngelfish Investments PLC\nOC Finance SA 5.95% bond\nOC Finance SA 6.25% bond\nGet Claims Advice\nNow is the time to get any transactions reviewed if you had any dealings with the firm.\nYou may have already been cold called by other companies explaining that you have lost money and you should claim compensation.

"original": "Support Local Journalism\nThank you for all of your comments, ideas, photos and support!\nNews Release, Recovery Centers Of America\nCommunication and connection, one of the most important tools for staying in recovery has moved online with COVID-19 severely restricting group interactions. In order to stay connected, videoconferencing is fast becoming the new norm of communication for substance use disorder (SUD) patients and their families, for alumni, and for the professionals who treat addiction.\nTreatment centers, such as Recovery Centers of America (“RCA”), have met the challenge of COVID-19 “social distancing” and geared up quickly in offering video therapy and virtual connection opportunities for patients struggling with substance use disorders, both inpatient and outpatient, and their families who are trying to stay in touch.\nIn less than one week, RCA instituted a successful telehealth program at its treatment facilities and conducted 221 virtual inpatient sessions, 295 outpatient sessions, and 74 patient/family visitations. Additionally, over 1000 alumni attended recovery meetings, services, and classes via online video platforms!\n…Moreover, RCA moved numerous important licensure and certification classes online for its recently launched free education program for addiction practitioners called “The RCA Academy for Addiction and Behavioral Health Professionals.”\nSo far, the RCA Academy classes are filling up even with a 200-person maximum “capacity” and additional classes have been added to fill the need. These classes, such as “Trauma and Substance Use Disorder” and “ADHD and SUD” fulfill state and national requirements for professionals in the addiction recovery field to maintain licensure, enhance their knowledge base, and stay current on treatment modalities.\nTrish Caldwell, MFT, LPC, CCDP-D,CAADC,CCTP, Director of Family Services for RCA explained, “We are finding that video platforms are working well in conducting effective group therapy sessions as well as for creating connection opportunities for our patients and for alumni — people who need to see another face and talk to another person or group of people. Additionally, the free RCA Academy continuing education classes are really popular right now for SUD professionals because people seem to have more time during this nationwide quarantine to earn their course credit or advance their skills.”\nLicensed addiction treatment professionals are desperately needed to treat millions of Americans for drug and alcohol addictions according to a new National Drug Control Strategy report, the White House’s plan to combat the nation’s addiction crisis.\n“Adjustment to the daily life changes caused by the pandemic is a fact of life for everyone during the COVID-19 crisis. For addiction patients, families, alumni, and those who work in the substance use disorder field, however, treatment and recovery from a substance use disorder is still the number one priority,” said Caldwell.\nTo learn more about the online RCA Academy, visit https://recoverycentersofamerica.com/professional-continuing-education/."

"original": "With the aim of enabling digital transformation in the healthcare sector, VeChain, together with I-Dante co-developed a blockchain-enabled medical data management platform named The E-NewHealthLife. Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus, a hospital under the General Healthcare System of the Republic of Cyprus (GHS) is the first hospital to adopt this application.\nHealthcare System Advancement\nThere have been efforts to modernize the technological infrastructure in the healthcare sector, but the problems include the administrative and technical difficulties of pooling data from different digital systems, the increasing cost, and the balance of health imperatives and privacy concerns, have greatly hampered the efforts. This dilemma has led to an urgent need for a low-cost yet highly-efficient digital solution.\nWith proven advantages in terms of secured data storage and efficient information sharing between multiple parties, blockchain technology has emerged as the best option in hand.\nBlockchainized Actions In Response To The Challenges\nThere is a strong and urgent demand to deliver better and more efficient healthcare solutions that can achieve excellent patient-centric healthcare provision, secured data sharing, while complying with regulations on the use and sharing of patient data, which is solved in this case by the introduction of the E-NewHealthLife Web App in the Emergency Department of the hospital as the first phase of this project.\nPowered by VeChain ToolChainTM, the Digital Healthcare Passport is an encrypted NFC Card that can be assigned to any patient of the hospital. The NFC Cards will allow the patients to identify themselves automatically at the Emergency Room registration desk, check their queue on mobile phone, manage their own medical records safely with the E-NewHealthLife Web App.\nThe blockchain powered application can serve both the hospitals internally and also end users. As The E-NewHealthLife fully complies with the GDPR (EU’s General Data Protection Regulation), the App enables the owner to have complete control over their profile and medical records. Data can only be shared to 3rd parties with the permission of the owner.\nBridging Trust In The Healthcare Sector\nBlockchain is being posited as the next frontier in healthcare that will help solve the industry’s interoperability challenges. According to a report by BIS Research, the global healthcare market spending and investment on blockchain-based technologies is expected to hit $5.61 billion by 2025. The adoption of blockchain technology could save the healthcare industry up to $100–$150 billion per year by 2025.\nBased on concrete cases of multi party collaboration in various industries, VeChain has been accumulating experience in bridging trust and bringing in transparency into business while being compliant with local authorities and regulators. Given the huge potential of blockchain technology in the medical and healthcare sector, VeChain will continue to develop solutions for all stakeholders and pursue more opportunities in the near future.\nAbout Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus\nThe Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus is a modern private health care institution, one of the largest in Cyprus, with a mission to provide to all the citizens and the visitors of the country safe and high quality medical services 24/7. The founder of the Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus, Dr. Andreas Panayiotou has set as a goal the development and the establishment of a reliable infirmary, with flexible operational mechanisms, in order to gain the trust and recognition for the quality of its services from everybody. Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus is the first private hospital that joined Cyprus’ General HealthCare System (GHS).\nAbout I-DANTE LTD\nFounded in December of 2019 by Etna Digital Growth (a consultancy- software house company in Italy) and CircleServus LTD (a consultancy company in Cyprus) in order to build digital healthcare solutions leveraging the power of the VeChainThor Blockchain.\nLaunched in 2015, VeChain connects blockchain technology to the real world by providing a comprehensive governance structure, a robust economic model, and IoT integration. VeChain is the pioneer of real-world applications using public blockchain technology, with international operations in Singapore, Luxembourg, Tokyo, Shanghai, Paris, Hong Kong, and San Francisco. Together with our strategic partners PwC and DNV GL, we have established cooperative relations with many leading enterprises in different industries, including Walmart China, BMW, BYD Auto, Haier, H&M, LVMH, D.I.G, ENN, AWS, PICC, ASI etc.\nPhoto – https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1169061/VeChain_Blockchain_Solution_Screen.jpg\nLogo – https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/738221/VeChain_Logo.jpg\nCredit: Source link"

"original": "Denver Broncos vs. Oakland Raiders, Monday Night Football. After the controversy with Antonio Brown, the Raiders hope to play in peace this season. Jon Gruden is focused on the team having a better season. The expectation is Derek Carr, the fans and everyone expects Carr to play at the same level two years ago. The Broncos are still looking for the road of victories, now with Joe Flacco the hope is much greater than last season.\nOakland Raiders: No more drama.\nThe Raiders are tired of the whole circus that was generated by Antonio Brown. What Brown did was stupid. All this fight for a helmet. Brown is immature and will surely not succeed with the Patriots. Last season with Gruden in front, the Raiders had a negative record at home with 3-4-0. But the last game in 2018 was a home victory against the Broncos 27-14. It should be noted that at that time Joe Flacco was not with the Broncos.\nAt home the Raiders are scoring an average of 25.1 points per game, 25.1 rushes with 113.0 rush yards, 26 complete passes with 271.7 rush yards. The second half is the best for the Raiders playing at home with 13.60 points on average. The defense allows up to 30.3 points per game at home.\nDerek Carr has had negative numbers in the last two years. 2017 with 6-9-0 and last season with 4-12-0. The best year for Carr was in 2016 with 12-3-0. The team needs Carr to be the player of two years ago. But not all of the blame is on Derek, the WRs and the defenders must also help Darek.\nDenver Broncos: With new QB.\nThe Broncos dream of a better season. The team has a veteran like Joe Flacco, but how can that help the Broncos’ expectations this year. Last season was negative for the Broncos with 6-10-0, third place in the West Division of the AFC. The Broncos have not won a game on the road since December 2 against the Bengals. The last four games of last season were defeats.\nOn the road the Broncos are scoring an average of 21.6 points per game, 25.8 rushes with 132.6 rush yards, 21.8 complete passes with 206.0 pass yards. The defense allows 26.8 rushes with 115.2 rush yards and up to 22.5 points per game.\nJoe Flacco 4-5-0 in his last season with the Baltimore Ravens. The numbers at his farewell were 2465 yards, 12 touchdowns, 61.2%, 232 complete passes. Flacco spent ten years with the Ravens. The best of Flacco with the Ravens was championship in 2012 in the superbowl xlvii.\nMy Free Pick & Prediction for Denver Broncos vs. Oakland Raiders 09/09/2019 is: take the Oakland Raiders +2.5 (spread).\nEnjoy today’s free pick and (hopefully) another winner!

"original": "There are many items still left on my AvGeek bucket list, but last week I was fortunate enough to cross a pretty BIG one off.\nI was very excited to be invited to witness the arrival of the world’s largest aircraft ever produced, the mighty Antonov An-225. Nicknamed “Mriya”, which is the Ukranian word for dream. The aircraft first flew in 1988 and is the only plane of its kind in service today. There was a second model built to about 70% completion, but due to funding problems it remains in a desolate state in Kiev.\nThe original mission scope of the aircraft was to carry the soviet spacecraft Buran, much like the American version of the 747-based Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the aircraft remained in storage for almost a decade before it was brought back into operational service as a cargo air-lifter, operated by Antonov Airlines. Mriya is primarily based in Kiev, Ukraine but has completed various missions all around the world.\nMriya was scheduled to make a series of three flights from Ostrava Airport in the east of Czech Republic. Once the schedule was released, I realized that I would only have one chance to get some decent shots, as two of the three flights were scheduled to take place during darkness.\nThere was much fanfare at Ostrava Airport, and I estimate close to 200-300 spotters came out for the arrival, not just from Czech Republic but also from Poland and Slovakia. It always amazes me the amount of enthusiasm that is clearly present in the Czech population for all things aviation.\nI was fortunate enough to be on the other side of the fence, as one of my friends works at the airport. Thanks to this unique access, I was able to not only get some amazing shots of the aircraft, but also partake in assisting my friend with the preparation for the arrival of this beast. As there was about four inches of snow on the aprons, I got to witness first-hand the complex and demanding task of snow clearing.\nIt was truly an awe-inspiring experience to be able to see this colossal, yet somehow majestic, aircraft up-close. This really goes down as one of my best AvGeek experiences to date!\nNote: For the best viewing experience, be sure to click on each photo for the full resolution image to be displayed."

"original": "The RHONY reunion has not even started and there’s already drama brewing among the ladies of The Real Housewives of New York City.\nThe women are gathering at an undisclosed location today to dish about Season 12.\nHowever, it seems Ramona Singer will be going into the reunion in a very bad mood caused by Sonja Morgan and Luann de Lesseps.\nThe two RHONY cast members were late and that apparently set off the Ramona coaster.\nNow the OG is calling out her costars on social media.\nRamona calls Sonja and Luann disrespectful\nThe turtle time originator took to Instagram this morning to get a few things off her chest.\nIn the video, Ramona reprimands Sonja and the countess.\n“I’m here at the studio waiting to film,” says the 63-year-old. “But guess what,guess who’s an hour late? Sonja Morgan and Luann.”\n“I’m mean really girls this is so disrespectful, the fact that we can do a reunion in person is so incredible.”\nShe added, “If I can get up, you sure as hell can get up and I’m so upset with them.”\nSonja shows off reunion glam\nMeanwhile, it seems that Sonja was at home getting glam and that must’ve been what caused the holdup.\nA very unbothered Sonja shared a photo on her Instagram page and tagged her styling team.\nIt seems she may have caught wind of Ramona’s rant because she wrote on the photo, “Getting there. Season 12 #reunion.”\nIn the photo, the OG housewife was still clad in her robe, but most likely she will be decked out in one of her fabulous dresses from her Sonja by Sonja Morgan clothing line.\nAnother cast member, Leah McSweeney also gave us a backstage peek as she got ready for her very first reunion.\nThe Season 12 newbie was a breath of fresh air as she joined the New York franchise and really stirred things up.\nShe will undoubtedly go head to head with Ramona Singer since they just had a blowout on the latest RHONY episode.\nOne person who we know for sure is ready for the RHONY reunion is host, Andy Cohen.\nThis morning he took to Instagram to share a post from the secret location where they will be taping the reunion.\n“About to shoot our IN PERSON RHONY Reunion!! Putting on a suit and tie never felt so good…. Gonna be a great day!”\nThe Real Housewives of New York City airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.\n- Former RHOC alum, Lydia McLaughlin says cast members ‘hate each other’ behind the camera - 25th October 2020\n- Former RHOD cast member LeeAnne Locken says cast members were told by producers to attack her - 25th October 2020\n- Kyle Richards and Garcelle Beauvais caught filming scenes together for RHOBH, did they mend their relationship? - 25th October 2020"

"original": "I currently use Ableton Live 9 and thinking about fully switching to Ubuntu. Ableton has no support nor plans for Ubuntu or Linux, so I have to switch or Wine/VM it. I know using VM/Wine is clunky for midis and sometimes impossible for VM, so I'd rather switch. I looked into a couple daws like LMMS, Bitwig, and Ardour but haven't tried any yet.\nI mainly use midi keys, but I also use an Ableton Push and previously used a launchpad which my friend now owns. I love Ableton's ease with midi instruments and ability to use VST plug-ins. My main concern is compatibility with the equipment that I previously stated.\nSo where should I go from here?"
