en | N/A | N/A | How does this version customize its ErrorHandler?
tml
The method in the document is not available.
Because when creating WebAppContext, the ErrorPagErrrorHandler is created as the ErrorHandler.
public WebAppContext()
this(null,null,null,null,null,new ErrorPageErrorHandler(),SESSIONS|SECURITY);
Besides modifying webapp-common.xml, is ed when you tried the approaches described in the documentation?
You can define the error pages in `web.xml`, or configure the existing `ErrorPageErrorHandler`.
Or you could set your own `ErrorHandler` on the `WebAppContext` in `jetty-web.xml` and configure it how you like:
<New class="com.acme.handler.MyErrorHandler"/>
</Set>
<issue_comment>username_2: If all you want is custom error pages, you don't need a custom ErrorHandler.
Just use the web descriptor (`WEB-INF/web.xml`) elements already built in to specify the behavior.
Example of how to trigger a custom dispatch on a particular response status code.
<location>/myerror.html</location>
Based on an unhandled Throwable / Exception type
<>
<location>/IOException.jsp</location>
General catch all if no specific `<error-page>` is configured.
<location>/GeneralErrorServlet</location>
You can have as many `<error-page>` entries as you want.
Notice that the `<location>` can be anything that can be served by the webapp, including servlets, jsps, and even static pages.
If you decide to handle the error in your own servlet, know that you will receive a [`DispatcherType.ERRORDispatcherType.html#ERROR) dispatch (see [`HttpServletRequest.getDispatcherType#getDispatcherType--)), and the original request details will be contained in several [`HttpServletRequest.getAttribute(keynameAttribute-java.lang.String-) locations.
See [`RequestDispatcher.ERROR_*RequestDispatcher.html) constantwiftlint.yml
username_0: resolves #382
<issue_comment>username_1: PS. I believe you will need to add the config file to the Dangerfile #L23
<issue_comment>username_0: But in current, SwiftLint verifies only on `Sources`.
I'm trying to fix by unsetting `--path` property on `swiftlint`, and it should not need to set config file (.swiftlint.yml file on project root will be read
let files = ().filter { ($0.starts(with: "Tests") || $0.starts(with: "Sources")) &&
$0.fileType == .swift }
SwiftLint.lint(.files(files), inline: true)
Here is my solution (https://github.com/danger/swift/pull/383/files#diff-01136c42fecd3d9a2f9d247c6391859f063fcf4bdb445092e14ccbc8ed02bfcfR23)
or, do you mean to make it runs twice (for `Sources` and for `Tests`)I wrote is basically filtering the modified files to only include files in test and sources, but I'm totally fine with yourcore-js issue parsing headers

en | N/A | N/A | Nopal extract creates nanosilver | NANOMINING Project | Results in brief | FP7 | CORDIS | European Commission
Development of new nanocomposites using materials from mining industry
Researchers have used nopal cladodes extracts in a new method of synthesising silver nanoparticles. They also found novel applications for these nanoparticles in biomedical implants and metal alloys. Mechanically Activated Thermal Oxidation (MATO) and Thermal Reduction (MAREC) technologies were developed for extratction of Ag and Zn correspondingly from ore waste.
Silver nanoparticles have an array of medical and industrial applications due to their desirable chemical and mechanical properties. Challenges in this field include the recovery of silver from mining waste and an efficient way of manufacturing regular nanoparticles. The EU-funded 'Development of new nanocomposites using materials from mining industry' (NANOMINING) project aimed to develop a new silver reclamation process. It also set out to find new nanotechnology applications for the reclaimed silver. A reactor for processing of jarosite (mining waste with a high content of silver and zinc) was built and tested successfully on industrial-scale. A nanoparticle synthesis method that used nopal extracts of the (Opuntia sp.) was developed to create cheap, uniform silver nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were tested in two applications: as part of a coating for biomedical implants, and as part of new alloys for electrical contacts. Both applications were tested successfully, and NANOMINING is in the process of commercialising these products. NANOMINING has advanced the state of the art in nanoparticle engineering, and developed cheaper and more sustainable production methods for silver nanoparticles.

en | N/A | N/A | I am not sure why the compiler rejects the assignment to the VAR procedure parameter in P2.
The type of each formal parameter is specified in the parameter list. .
At compile time, the type of the actual parameter in your call to P2 is T2 whereas it should be T1. The call to P1 is OK because the formal parameter to P1 is not a variable parameter.
Hm, thanks, yes, the Report is clear about this. Mr W's writing is succinct and precise as usual. I was mulling over the reason why pointers to an extended type cannot be passed as VAR parameters declared as pointer to a base type thereof.
Is this the (or a) use case and problem the rule prevents?
Keep in mind while you are reading it that Oberon-2 has additional O-O features (e.g. type-bound procedures), and some differences (e.g. WITH instead of CASE) so it is not all relevant to Oberon-07. However, there should still be enough to be useful to you.
The t2 := t1 assignment is illegal, as per compiler error as well as the Report. However, P1(t2) and the assignment therein works and yields the results as indicated in the comment. Is this legal code as per the language definition? If yes, what are the rules of the assignment in P1 as regards the record fields in T2 but not in T1?
t2.k remains unchanged. If you wanted to modify k as well you would need to use an assignment with a type guard (and a type test to be on the safe side) within the procedure P1. |
en | N/A | N/A | 'From what I've heard so far,' said Sympathy, as she sat down for a cup of tea with Economical, ''this is just the sort of larger programme we have been looking for. You know the NORDIDA programme in Sundae is running at about $4 million a year. But being a small agency, we the proper utilization of funds. Much of our funding finishes up being used as perks for senior officials, rather than for the intended grassroots development.''
'That's where we can help,' said Economical. 'We are putting together basket funding, so that each of the various contributing agencies can support their preferred component in selected countries. With all our pand multi-agency projectsperly utilized and supervised. A regional programme in ten countries enables much more efficient ways of planning and supervision.'
'You see,' said Sympathy, 'we have found that much of rural poverty, especially amongst female headed household in rural areas, arises from entrenched discrimination against women in access to land, labour and credit. We want to support action on a range of crucial issues which stand in the way ofgender inequity.'
'I do understand,' said Economical, adopting a kindly and fatherly tone, 'that you come from rather a socialist country. But there is a severe limit on how much you can pursue such policies here. According to our Assistance Agreement with Sundae, the Bank's role is to support government policy, which is concerned with enabling entrepreneurship, capital accumulation and foreign investment. We can't discriminate in favour of men.'
'Well,' gulped Sympathy, 'I am not saying that NORDIDA is trying to force Sundae to become another Nordic. But you have to admit, if we are going to reduce poverty, we have the options of either increasing production, or more equitable distribution. And recent Sundial economic history shows a steady declining production, per capita, over the past then years…'
'Well, of course in principle, between the two of us, I can agree with you. But as far as this regional development programme is concerned, as the title reveals, it is about Poverty Alleviation, not Poverty Reduction. Because of the misapplication of structural adjustment programmes by most of the governments in this region, we now have pressing problems of destitution, starvation and disease.'
'So it's more a programme of humanitarian aid?'
'Exactly. But we call it development, because nobody wants to use words that give a bad name to structural adjustment.'
'Even so,' persisted Sympathy, 'if we are putting in the money, maybe we can fund a more developmental corner within a programme which is mainly humanitarian. After all, if you are , your programme will need to progress in a more developmental direction. We could use our position to focus on the important gender issues which stand in the way of development, such as male control of land, and robbing widows of their marriage property …'
'Half a minute,' laughed Economical, 'we have to work within the existing societies, their traditions and norms. If we try to upset their traditions, the whole programme will be at risk. Some of the governments around here haven't even ratified the Women's Convention. Neither for that matter has the United States, which is our main source of funding…'
'But surely,' interrupted Sympathy, 'if you have a regional programme, it needs to be informed by a regional strategy of identifying the pattern of major issues and obstacles which stand in the way of development, and then developing appropriate strategies focused on these very issues. If we could piggy-back on your programme, we could reach all the major women's NGOs in the region, and build their capacity for direct action on selected gender issues which stand in the way…'
'But governments are our cooperating partners. We are prepared to work with some NGOs, provided they are not anti-government, and are able to provide support or supplement government services. We cannot get into political mobilization, we are a non-political organization. We certainly can't get involved in fomenting antigovernment NGOs to oppose and undermine government's efforts.'
'OK, Perhaps my suggestions were a bit radical. But explain to me how you take advantage of a regional multilateral programme to develop a more focused regional strategy. Or is it just national strategy replicated on a larger scale?'
'Not mere replication, because it takes advantage of economies of scale. That is our strategy. We save the duplication of efforts by different agencies, enabling specialization in monitoring and evaluation, fuller utilization of expertise, and standardised accounting procedures. So everybody is better off. We are concerned with the application of known and proven interventions, involvingfor entrepreneurship. The problem is not how to intervene, but how to do it effectively and efficiently.'
'What is your gender strategy?'
'All our staff are gender trained, and we do everything in a very gender sensitive way.'
'It seems to me,' said Sympathy with a sigh, 'that you have your own corporate strategy, but no development strategy.'
'And I wonder if your corporate strategy,' said Sympathy, 'is less concerned with development, and more concerned with orchestrating and controlling the bilateral agencies.'
'I know you're new here,' laughed Economical. 'You'll soon get the hang of it.' |

Reeded glass: This popular decorative style is commonly used when the shower design includes two sliding doors. Reeded glass is cut on an angle to create diagonal lines that flow towards the center of the two doors.
Privacy glass: Your family’s bathroom needs might require a bit more obscurity so that more than one person can use the space to get ready in the mornings. If maximizing the efficiency of your bathroom is the goal, privacy glass that obstructs the view through the door will probably be the best option for your shower enclosure.
Decorative and opaque: For those looking to combine a decorative look with enough privacy, there are several great custom options available. Frosted glass stripes, for example, can modernize the look of your glass door, but will ensure that anyone using the shower is comfortably concealed. This striped look can also be used to highlight some of the other design features in your bathroom, such as the tiles, wallpaper or a custom mirror.
Glass door hardware: Just as the shower door you choose can come in many different patterns and designs, so too do the hinges, handles and framing options that are available for your door. Your door can be framed in chrome, brass or antique-brushed nickel, and the handles you select can be chosen in any color or style that best matches the rest of the bathroom’s décor.
Whether you’re looking for a custom option that provides the best of both worlds with a decorative finish that offers enough privacy for all, or you want the clean, sleek look that is captured with a clear frameless design, the team at Santa Fe Glass & Mirror has you covered.

Google My Business should be updated at the same time with the inclusion of COVID- 19 structured data. You will be offered to add support links too by Google like gift cards selling or donations. You can get a much more clear idea about this from the relevant blog posts as well.
L! Widely, companies of Las Vegas SEO services make use of these just because of the following reasons:
- P It is checked by search engines at varied sources like citations, reviews, and web-like links.
- Relevance is another crucial SEO factor. In this prospect, the search engine checks the way a business fulfills the demand of the searcher. Relevancy doesn’t depend on the update of Google My Business but it is the factor acting for determining your position in the Google search rank. So, you must put emphasis on the general SEO to earn the much-needed eyeballs and business as outcomes.
There are many SEO agencies that make your site prepared for uploading in the search engines. Besides that, it will allow you to compose interesting content pieces for garnering the attention of the consumers. According to your preferences, a well-structured data graph will be also provided to you.
With its incorporation, connections can be made possible on the other end of the Web by the search engines. All these aspects will make your website full, informative, relevant, and professional to the visitors.
- Listings must be aligned
Structured data of the local business Schema.org is vital too as it allows the search engine to know much more about your site for verification purposes. Earlier, this was considered as an additional chore but these days due to the availability of the full graph, things become much easier.
This fully structured data framework comes with a local SEO plugin as well. Basically, this component assists the user in managing the business details without being hassled.

2. Hymns Are Usually Written By the Right People
3. Hymns Aren’t “Popular”
Ce and profitable. They are written in a simple style that doesn’t need to conform to any popular entertainment genre. The result is something more lasting, less derivative, and isn’t bound by industry standards. Exclusive allegiance to contemporary worship allows the church’s worship to be hijacked by the worship industry, which is first and foremost a money-making enterprise.
4. Hymnody Has Been Examined and Vetted
Are all hymns better than all contemporary worship songs? No, of course not. There has been some real crap written throughout the centuries. But for the most part, the body of hymnody we have today has been carefully examined and vetted, evaluated and scrutinized by generations of pastors, scholars, hymnal committees, and congregants. It is a rich, vast, broad, and varied collection in which churches and worshipers can be confident., and letting the dross fall away.
Likewise, rejecting the body of Christian hymnody and relying only upon what is new and marketable is not only foolish, but is patently arrogant.
5. Hymns Are For Congregations a commercially-recorded enterprise.n individual or small group. While that might be fine in any other setting, it’s not worship.
6. Singing Our Faith Is Worship
“One of my complaints with the pre-worship music era is that the songs of that generation give TOO MUCH info – they are like musical sermons leaving no room to “ponder anew what the Almighty can do.” We are too busy trying to figure out what an ebenezer is! When the Jesus Movement hit, it brought with it simple songs of worship TO God – I remember – I was there – I am old. And for a couple of decades we had songs in churches that transcended information-based music… there was deep, personal meaning to the songs for those singing and, dare I say, worshiping. At the same time I do completely agree that “Christian music” has very sadly become a type of faux worship and today we have far too many “worship stars” – it sickens me, to be honest. But that doesn’t mean ALL the repetition is to be dismissed. My encouragement is for ALL of us to take a moment and allow the Holy Spirit to bathe over us AS we sing “Shout to the Lord” 3, 4, 5 or even 6 times.” – Dan M.
Boiled down, this argument is saying that “Hymns make me think so hard that I can’t worship.” The words and the truths and the poetry keep me from feeling the all the worship-y things. But while emotions aren’t in and of themselves bad or foreign to worship, they are not a litmus test, an indicator, or even a reliable sign that worship has taken place.
Yet us with the drama of the Christian story, but demands that we play a part. And in those moments of discipline, effort, and personal engagement, in the hassle of contextually deciphering words we don’t know and concepts we don’t yet grasp, we don’t merely learn what the word “ebenezer” means, but we learn to give thanks for the God who has graciously brought wanderers like us to this place.
7. Because Words Mean Stuff
Liturgy is about truthful and disciplined prayer. It relies on words for a reason. It relies on elegant, eloquent, and refined language so that we get the Christian story right. And as the truths present in the elevated language, repeated carefully and often, take root in us, we become the church we need to be. Through our careful, disciplined prayer, we become God’s prayer for the world. The bulk of Christian hymnody is written with this endeavor in mind, and it acknowledges the gravity of Christian worship. It carries the substance needed to nurture and nourish a church that can rise to the task. The same simply cannot be said of the latest and greatest jesusy hits, no matter how well they sell.
My critics would predictably respond with accusations of worship warring and discord sowing. I reject those swiftly and completely. This isn’t about feeding the worship wars, it’s about transcending them. Congregational song was never meant to be a popularity contest.
Frankly, we’ve wasted enough time on the contemporary worship experiment. It has starved the church and triggered a crazy obsession with copying mainstream entertainment culture. A rejection of pop-worship and a return to historic Christian liturgy is sorely needed if the church is going to fulfill its purpose in the world around us. In that way, it’s not just better to sing hymns, it’s vitally important that we do so.

"My people are destroyed by lack of knowledge" -Hosea 4:6 The goal of this channel is to educate human beings about how Satanic forces are controlling all the principalities worldwide. American Babylon is following historical and biblical scripture as an insane waring nation leading to World War III end times. Vatican Illuminati, puppet masters and puppet politicians have subverted and perverted spirituality away from humanity. It's a Godless world of enslaved brainwashed beings seduced through greed and technology in digital fascist prisons in social media like Facebook that is blocking free speech. Ask yourself, "Will your children and grandchildren have freedom of speech in the next generations? Social media is breeding anger and hate by design of pitting right from left politically in America through Satanic controlled propaganda memes. The hate mongering puppet masters are laughing at all the sheep being led to slaughter toward Talmudic beheadings. Through hate, Satan has penetrated the souls of patriotic Americans who have come out of the Matrix into a Sub Matrix being led to a path of Civil War. The spirit of Satan has anchored into their lower extremities in the black bile festering as hate. Exorcism will be painful without the knowledge of the anointed armor of YHVH (GOD) found in scripture. When Jesuit Pope Francis said, "Jesus failed on the cross" he really meant that the Vatican British Nobility Illuminati Secret Society Rothschild Money Changer Bankers through their Synagogue of Satan have over the centuries created a Godless World for the Lucifer they worship...THE ANTI CHRIST. Humanity has been conned through greed and theatre of the mind to deliver spiritual souls to Lucifer at the 6th Trump when the Devil shows up with temptations of peace and a chicken in every pot. Time to show up, stand up and speak out for truth that will transform beings living solely in a temporary body of flesh in the supreme spiritual unique human beings transcending into everlasting life given through the "WORD." |

Why in the world do people rave about Ting? $18 plus $6 plus taxes for only 1000 minutes. I congratulate Tang for having a pretty solid advertising campaign and the fact that they somehow or giving us a deal because we are free to choose or you only pay as much as you use but it's almost a scam unless you really only use a couple hundred minutes a month and maybe a hundred megabytes of data and a hundred texts if you are an above average user ting is an awful deal don't fall for it
People love ting because they have tried it and they are impressed with the overall customer experience and value. If you just look at prices and that is all you care about, you won't ever understand ting. You can buy roaming on Verizon at extra cost now from RingPlus, and if you are very price-sensitive you might be able to put up with all of their issues to save a few bucks. I couldn't.
Looks like Ting is also fed up with CDMA (Sprint) and finally migrating to GSM (T-Mobile). But I don't believe their rates are as competitive as U.S. Mobile, who operates on the same tier system, also on T-Mobile's network.
I would think most of us rank this behind all these other (and more) considerations. Inconsequential, indeed.
Ting actually announced that it would offer GSM service long before any of the issues with Sprint, so it's not a reaction to the problems they're having. It is simply fortunate that it happened this way, as Ting can simply move frustrated customers away from Sprint and still keep business.
It's more productive to say that Ting is offering T-Mobile-based service rather than just saying "GSM". It's a lot more specific. GSM could mean the significantly larger AT&T network, instead of Ting's new T-Mobile offerings.
Again, it is the root/main carrier that matters, not the GSM vs CDMA difference. At least,that is the way it is now. Dennis in his parent post leaves no room for ambiguity as he mentions it is T-Mobile-only right after mentioning GSM.
All this contradicts the idea of Ting being only on TMOBILE sub par network

Traditionally it has been interpreted as a question that reveals the inner character of this angel, because Michael addressed Lucifer, who desired to "be as God", that is, "to be his own God". Lucifer's heart soars with pride. He is enamored by his own gifts, he is a highly intelligent Cherubim angel, and the word Cherubim is from the Hebrew that means "fullness of knowledge". A Cherubim angel is inconceivably more intelligent than the most intelligent human being; angels are immaterial substances, pure intelligences and they are not hindered by sense perception and time. But that's the danger of having a great mind; one can be subject to temptations of arrogance and pride, sins far more serious sins than the sins of the flesh. Michael responds to this movement in the heart of Lucifer to be his own god: "But who is like unto God?

en | N/A | N/A | Whatever automata MAF constructs to solve the word problem for a group or monoid, or the generalised word problem for a subgroup, the same utility, reduce, is used afterwards to solve particular cases of the problem. For any input word, reduce will output the corresponding irreducible word. Two distinct input words will represent distinct elements of a group or monoid, or cosets of a subgroup, if and only if the corresponding output words computed for them by reduce are different. In most cases you do not even need to concern yourself with what automata are available to solve the word problem: if no specific instructions are given to it, reduce will pick the automaton that is expected to be fastest.
In the remainder of this section we describe the various automata MAF provides for solving the word problem.
As implemented by MAF and KBMAG, an automatic structure consists of two automata: the first is called the word-acceptor; the second the general multiplier. The latter is a compendium of a number of similar automata, each one telling us how to multiply elements by either a generator, or by the identity element. The definition of an automatic structure requires that the word-acceptor accepts at least one word for every element. The automatic structures usually constructed by MAF and KBMAG have a more useful property: the word-acceptor accepts exactly one word for each element of the group, and it is the least word in the word-ordering specified in the rewriting system describing the group.
Algorithms for the construction of automatic structures are described in [ECH+92] and [HEO05]. MAF uses the same general plan as KBMAG - it uses the Knuth-Bendix procedure to discover equations between words representing equal elements, computes their word-differences, and then tries to build first a word-acceptor and then a general multiplier using these word-differences.
More information about automatic structures can be found in Background material: Automatic structures.
All finite and many infinite groups have automatic structures. Although word-reduction using an automatic structure is generally slower than word-reduction using a confluent rewriting system this is by no means always be the case. In particular, when a recursive word-ordering is used, it might well be the case that word reduction with the multiplier is actually faster, because the number of word-reductions required to reduce even short words using a rewriting system can be extremely large.
It should be noted that a rewriting system is not an automaton. However, both MAF and KBMAG implement word reduction with a rewriting system by using a special type of automaton, called an index automaton; this is constructed from the rewriting system, and its use requires the data from it. There are other, slower, ways of using a rewriting system to perform word reduction that do not need an index automaton, for example, the Rabin-Karp string matching algorithm. These require less memory, but MAF does not implement any such method as yet.
In general, reducing a word with a rewriting system may lead to a different output word depending on the implementation of the procedure that uses the rewriting system. This might potentially happen whenever the input word needs to be reduced more than once, and at some stage of the reduction process there are two choices for the next reduction to apply. Clearly a rewriting system like this cannot solve the word problem. If a rewriting system does not have this undesirable feature, and the output word is independent of any choice made by the procedure, then it is said to be confluent. The essence of the Knuth-Bendix procedure is the attempt to make a rewriting system confluent by systematically searching for words w which have distinct reductions u and v and adjoining a new rule u=v or v=u whenever we find one. If we attempt to follow this process, but the input file does not present a finite object then this process might never terminate. If the input file does present a finite object then the process will terminate, but it might take an arbitrarily long time to do so.
When a finite confluent rewriting system exists for an input file, then there is a smallest such system, which is called the minimal confluent rewriting system. This is the only system that KBMAG constructs, and it is also constructed by MAF. MAF constructs another confluent system, which it calls the "fast" confluent rewriting system. It will be able to directly reduce more words than the minimal system, so reduction will be faster, possibly much faster in some cases. If the object underlying the rewriting system is finite then there is a canonical rewriting system of this type: the one that can directly reduce all reducible words that have an irreducible prefix. MAF does not yet construct this, though in many cases the "fast" rewriting system is probably close to it, provided the -nowd option is not used, because MAF usually creates a large number of secondary equations when a rewriting system becomes confluent, in order to discover the secondary word-differences. For infinite objects this canonical fast rewriting system is almost always infinite, but there is another possibility for a canonical rewriting system larger than the minimal confluent one: the rewriting system that contains all direct reductions that can be recognised by an index automaton with the same states as the minimal rewriting system's index automaton. For infinite objects the "fast" rewriting system constructed by MAF is usually close to being this system.
Coset tables
In MAF, a coset table is an FSA in which there is one state for each coset, and in which the transitions are determined by the group multiplication (i.e. by the right action of the generator on the coset). Each state is labelled by the last generator in the irreducible word for the least coset representative. In the case of a coset table for a subgroup of a group this is sufficient information to allow the irreducible word for the coset represented by the state to be constructed. The coset table for an entire group is simply the coset table of the trivial subgroup of the group. Coset tables only exist for finite index subgroups, and automata only constructs them for subgroups of groups. Although one could construct a coset table for a subgroup of a monoid it could not be used to perform word-reduction without computation of the "state definitions" for the coset table.
automata does not construct coset tables unless a coset system is being processed, but the utility gpcosets can be used to construct it from one of the other automata that solve the word problem, or gptcenum can be used to attempt do so using Todd-Coxeter coset enumeration.
The language of the coset table FSA consists of all words which are in the identity coset, i.e. that correspond to elements of the subgroup. The intersection of two finite index subgroups can be computed by using the fsaand utility to compute the intersection of the languages of the coset tables.
Word-difference machines
Word-difference machines encapsulate much of the information present in the general multiplier, and can be used to perform word reduction. Although in general word reduction using the general multiplier will be faster there are cases where this might not necessarily be so. In general the general multiplier has many more states than a word-difference machine, so that if memory is short it may be that using one of the word-difference machines to perform word reduction is faster.
The best word-difference machine to use is usually the "correct word-difference machine" (with suffix .diff2c or .midiff2c), but it might sometimes be the case that the "correct primary word-difference machine" (suffix .diff1c or .midiff1c) is actually faster due its usually much smaller number of transitions. The "complete word-difference machine" (suffix .diff2) can also be used, but generally should not be.
Reduction using a word-difference machine is actually probably most useful at times when MAF's computations have failed to find either an automatic structure or a confluent rewriting system. In such cases a word-difference machine computed from the set of known equations will be the best hope of proving that distinct words do not represent different elements.
The "reduction recogniser" (.rr suffix), "primary equation recogniser" (.minkb suffix), and "equation recogniser" (.maxkb suffix) automata are also essentially word-difference machines, and could be used to perform word-reduction, but MAF does not currently support this, though it is likely that at least the first will be supported properly in future. The principal reason these automata are currently constructed is to allow the computation of the two "correct" word-difference machines. |

Longitude's work in metocean engineering provided an understanding of tide, current and waves at the shore approach location, including generating 3D hydrodynamic modelling. This was critical to Prysmian's ability to plan operations, given strong and changing tidal currents, due to the location of the OWF, close to a river estuary.
"Delivering the scope of work under this agreement demonstrates the breadth of services we can offer across a project's lifecycle, and the value our multidisciplinary approach adds to clients' projects. An example of this is the provision of cable stability analysis and work on the landfall cable pull-in. In-depth stability analysis requires consideration of a range of potentially contributing factors. To understand these factors you need a specialised combination of environmental engineering expertise, providing an analysis of the soil properties from a geoscience perspective, and tidal, current and weather conditions for the location from the metocean perspective."

AmosTheBaka chapter 1 . 10/10/2012 You're levels are way too high. Other than that, good job.
shugokage chapter 6 . 10/7/2012 Great chapter and good job on this scene!
shugokage chapter 5 . 10/4/2012 Interesting story with great character so good luc!
FrostyMouse chapter 4 . 9/8/2012 You know, there's no eating of things like that. Everything just explodes into nothingness. I know that you want it to be edgier, but was that really needed?
The chapter itself was well written though.
FrostyMouse chapter 3 . 9/8/2012 A decent slice of life chapter. It seemed more natural than the previous chapter, so that's a positive.
Yopkyu chapter 1 . 9/7/2012 Before I read anything, I read the 'summary' and the themes of this story. 'A group of people about fighting against the murderers, what will happen to them?' With the theme of 'Humour and Adventure'. Before I start reading this, I figure it would be nice to know what sort of tone you're story was intended to be read in.
Or are you like me where you just don't know? .!
demonsshade chapter 2 . 9/7/2012 As this chapter was mostly a fight scene, I can't really say too much about it. Maybe throw more story elements in? Two points stand out to me in an otherwise well-written chapter: 1) The first is that the scene where Bluebell is freaking out about dying seems pretty corny. Granted, it is incredibly difficult to write emotional scenes, so don't beat yourself up about it. There's a very fine line between corny and emotional, unfortunately, and it's a struggle all writers have to deal with.
2) My second point is more simple. Who was that guy at the end and where did he come from? It just seemed like something you'd toss in at the end of a chapter to make it a "cliffhanger". I think something like that requires a little bit more build-up.
However, since I also believe that focusing solely on the parts of a person's writing that needs improvement isn't productive, I also have to compliment you. To be honest, I love your descriptions of the fight scenes. They're absolutely perfect for the SAO game. So, if you're gonna have a fight scene in the future, keep doing what you're doing. It's very good.
FrostyMouse chapter 2 . 9/6/2012 Strange, the second chapter's disappeared off of the main SAO fanfic page.
As to the fanfic, it seems decent.
We've yet to see nine people, only four plus the one that was mentioned.
I don't really know how that man would've ended up in or around the boss room without them noticing, but...
demonsshade chapter 1 . 9/6/2012 Your writing is pretty good. It's fluid and amusing, and the descriptions for the fight scene seemed to fit well with the SAO universe.
One thing I noticed was the interactions between characters. This is written almost like a slice-of-life fanfiction, which doesn't seem to fit with the fanfiction description, which is fairly serious. I'm currently confused whether this is going to become more serious or stay this light-hearted. I guess I'll have to find out. Personally, I'd prefer a serious fanfic. |

MONMOUTH — An accident that tied up U.S. Route 202 Friday sent three people to a Lewiston hospital.
The drivers, Edith Savage, 80, of Greene and Jeannine Farrington, 65, of Lewiston; and a passenger in Farrington’s van, Andre Gagne, 64, of Lewiston, were all , said Monmouth Police Officer Robert Welbout 11:30 a.m. when Savage, driving a 1997 Chevrolet Lumina,Bog Road and Route 202. Wells said Savage, who was turning to head east on 202, pulled in front of Farrington’s east-bound 2003 Pontiac Montana van.
Both of thed are likely totaled, Wells said.
Farrington’s van — with air bags deployed — ended up far off the eastbound side of the road, leaving muddy ruts from the tire in a grassy area between Blue Road and U.S. Route 202. The van was packed full with household items.
Savage told police she had come from purchasing flowers on Bog Road.
The section of Route 202 was closed for about 15 minutes. Monmouth firefighters and fire vehicles blocked the east-bound lane for some time after that while clearing the wreckage.
Wells said the investigation is ongoing and may result in charges. |

FAT Paint Delivers Blushing Bombshell Makeover by Amanda Forrest
Blushing Bombshell is one of the Amanda Forrest Collection colors that The Fat Paint Company recently launched. It is a bold, rich, pink that delivers a huge impact in a room. When white, beige, and grey is too boring, why not take a risk with one of the trendiest design colors?
Blushing Bombshell transforms a broken table into chic design.
This black table was thrown in a garbage pile in our warehouse, bound for the dumpster the next day. Our warehouse handyman, Steven, saw the table and rescued it. A little TLC and it was actually worth painting.
Steven does a lot of the paint projects in our shop. He’s great to work with because he’s not afraid to take risks on colors or combinations. This is one of my favorite transformations though, simply because the color is so different and so bold.
FAT is a chalk like paint and requires little to no prep work. Simply open the can and start painting! It’s as easy as that. I find two coats are usually best. Afterwards, I like to add two coats of Top Coat to protect the furniture. If it’s an item that won’t get a lot of use, often I’ll go one of the three wax varieties. I love the smooth finish, but for a durable surface, I find that Top Coat is best.
It’s been a total chalk paint transformation
This sad little table, pulled from the garbage pile has seen a lot in its long life. Now it’s been given a FAT paint makeover and is ready for an entirely new life of luxury. After all, it now feels like a piece of luxury furniture.
Blushing Bombshell in it’s new location is just the perfect pop of color in a monochromatic grey world. It’s why it’s such a trendy new color. Just remember that in order for a strong color like this to work in a room, it needs to be represented three time. As you can see in the photo above, it is present in coffee table, then a pillow on this side of the room, and the far side of the room. While it is harder to see, it’s also represented in a tray on the dining table.
Capri Blue Candles – including Volcano – Sold in Orange Park
Other than new paint colors it’s rare that we get the excitement level that our new line of Capri Blue Candles brought. Capri Blue is the same line that Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters carry;┬ábest known for the Volcano scent.

Signature Line of Capri Blue
The signature line from Capri Blue includes the trademark 20 oz blue jar. This candle is hand poured in the USA, burns for 85 hours, and is a parrafin-soy wax blend.
The travel size of the Capri Blue candle has 35 hours of burn time and weighs only 9 oz. It is perfect to throw in your travel bag or suitcase to keep the scent of home with you when you are on the road. At only $15.95, it’s a very affordable gift for family or friends.
Capri Blue Muse Color Cut Glass Jars
These beautiful jars are just a little higher in price, but offer a stunning look to any room with their gorgeous cut glass jars. For only $32, you’ll make a great statement with this candle. Each scent comes in a different colored cut glass jar. This candle is 11 ounces and burns for a full 40 hours.
We add new pieces to Facebook every week!
Did you know that we add our new pieces to Facebook every week? That’s right! If you can’t make it out to our store, you can still check out our new items every week.
We now have about 80 vendors and consignors in our 7500 sqft store. Because we provide an open floor plan for merchandising their wares, we are able to regularly shift the floor around to make room when we have a lot of furniture in stock, or spread out when inventory levels are low. This allows us to contract and expand as necessary without creating any negative impact to our customers.
New merchandise comes in almost every day between our vendors, consignors, and new item suppliers. This means that you could literally find something new every time you came in, even if it was three or four times a week! Because we do regularly move items around in the store, you also may see some items that have been her a while that will catch your eye. There is so much to see, you simply can’t do it all in one quick tour. |
en | N/A | N/A | and I’m also bipolar, so I’m doing a lot of stuff. I’m a very creative person in general, so when I was five-years-old, I started with theater because that was a way for me to get all my energy out and creativity and everything. I’ve been doing theater since I was very, very young as long as I can remember and I also graduated in theater school. It was right after that I joined the first band.
I would say for me, the band is a way to, all this creativity that I have, I put it in the band. I love writing, so that’s where lyrics come in. I love performing and that’s the whole stage thing.
I would say our stage performances, that’s where I am so to say, naked, not really but I am exposed. That’s where I’m most exposed and also where I’m the strongest part of me is there along with my most weak self.
I’m the most vulnerable but I’m also the strongest when I’m there. It’s a very naked,very real thing for me. My live performances where I actually get to be in front of and together with and sharing energy with the supporters we have, it’s something I would say for me, kind of therapy and it’s also a huge reason why I’m doing what I’m doing.
I would say many people who watch us, what we usually get as a response is that they like- Let’s say they see us for the first time, they’ve never heard of us before. They say either I love the energy or they would say I love the music.
There is something for everyone. Even if they would say, okay, it’s not necessarily my taste. It’s not my type of music, but I truly enjoyed the show and we always aim to do that. We’re here to entertain.
It’s also a way of learning to accept who you are and learning to see those things and kind of turn them around. All the bad sides you have and to turn them around and make something out of it.
All the lyrics I do, the way I perform, I’m not comfortable with my body. I’ve always had a very hard time accepting myself that is, I see myself as more like- Most of the time, the image I have of myself, it doesn’t match reality and I’ve been struggling with that a lot. Therefore, I also had a lot of problems with my weight up and down. I would say that Kerbera is very real and very- What we wanna kind of give to others is the same thing that it does for the people in the band.
It speaks reality.
Yes, we have. We actually have dates booked already but we are not allowed to to tell exactly what dates and where. But it’s gonna be in the beginning of next year, it’s gonna be revealed. We have a lot of plans, we say we have plans about one year ahead. Here in the U.S., we have of course been here in the U.S. now on a press tour where we have met media people and also people behind the scenes, label people and such.
He kind of has this kind of inside the genre that we wanna be a part of, so it was a natural step for us to go here to U.S. because we have a lot of followers and if we check our statistics, we have the most dedicated fans from here, the whole America, both South and North America.
What we did is that we wanna go here, we wanted to record the song together with someone who was in the genre. So we did that. We went on the session, three day session where we wrote the song, we recorded the song, and it’s gonna be mixed and mastered and we’re gonna release it in the beginning of 2019.
That’s something that I can reveal, but exact dates, et cetera will be announced soon.But, that’s one thing. After that, the whole first part of the year we’re gonna release a lot of new things which will lead up to a full length album as it’s seen right now.
What was it like creating music videos such as the one for “Home Is Where I Don’t Belong”?
Yes. It’s always nice when we work with Kerbera, as I said, that’s where all the members get to use their creativity to the max.
I’ve also said that I wanted to be director when I was younger and that’s where the whole direction, director part of me come in. I wrote the script and I also did all the work around that and then together with all the members, we decorated, redecorated the areas where we were gonna record and scout for locations.
We had a good team, all of us. It was really cool process because everything you see with Kerbera are things that we do ourselves. It’s our imagination that comes to life.
We rarely take someone else in that does all that kind of creativity for us. But we love to work with people around us and most of the times, it has been, I would say always it has been friends of ours that we have been like, okay this friend of ours-
When we’re working on “Home Is Where I Don’t Belong”, he is an old, friend of mine who started working and started his own company in film, who’s name is Javier.
He is on the Nordic Star Productions. It was really nice to just bring him in, brainstorm together me and our manager, write the whole script, search for all the people who were gonna be in the video, we actually invited through our fan group.
Said to our fans, “If you wanna be a part of this”, we invited them to- Instead of searching for, a cast.
Instead of just going out and do that, open to everyone, we did it in the fan group so we kinda tried to work very closely with our fans like that and I think that’s of huge importance for us.
When it comes to Kerbera, we mainly are- Our influences, I would say, are mainly from bands such as- I know that our guitarist for example is very much into Avenged Sevenfold. I take all my inspiration from composers such as Hans Zimmer, Danny Elfman. I’ve heard from a lot of people that they say that we seem to be very much into Japan, but I would say and think it’s mainly because I had my former band was called Seremedy and it was really all about the whole Japanese thing.
We were a part of that genre and I think a lot of people kind of, it’s still stuck with me since I was into the genre for such a long time. I started getting into it when I was 10 or something.
It’s such a huge part of my life but it’s not, by purpose. We have all these different inspirations like Muse, the band Muse is also a band that we truly love. Usually what we do with music is that we experiment a lot, we usually say that we are an alternative rock act and we are experimenting a lot with the sound.
That’s more what I would say and I don’t think any of the members are actually listening to Japanese artists. It’s cool that |
en | N/A | N/A | Left to send strong message against `breach of CMP’
NEW DELHI: Constituents of the Left parties on Saturday took the viewUnited Progressive Alliance Government for stepping out of line from the agreed Common Minimum Programme.
Tplan to stress this view when the four Left partie RSP and the AIFB, meet here on Sunday.
The Left parties coordination meeting comes close on the heels of the Manmohan Singh Government hiking the price of petrol and diesel and also the growing differences over the approach on disinvestment in Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL).
They said the decision to offload 10 per equity by the Government and divert the proceeds to an investment fund was a "breach of CMP" and conveyed strong opposition to the move. The parties argued that the CMP allowed public sector companies going to market to raise resources for internal use through a decision by the boards and not by the Government.
"We have to send a strong message that the Left parties cannot tolerate these frequent announcements byP. Chidambaram. We also have to remove an impression gaining ground that we are part of the Government,’’ AIFB Secretary G. Devarajan told The Hindu on the eve of the meeting. The Left parties were also coming under pressure from trade unions and farmers associations.
He said the Government had recently ignored suggestions by the Left parties for restructuring excise and customs duties and other measures instead of resorting to increasing petrol and diesel prices. "The Congress continues to push its agenda, if they want to do that the party should get a mandate," he said.
Abani Roy, RSP Central Committee member, said his party would remind the Left leaders a suggestion made by the party congress that it was time to "reconsider" outside support to the UPA Government. He said the Left leaders were also questioning the efficacy of the UPA-Left coordination meeting.
"There is no point in attending these meetings when the Government insists on doing what it wants to do," Mr. Roy said. |

Low Price Software </s>antiago et al. (24) investigated nasal uptake of O3 in healthy nonsmokers by exposing subjects to protocols of varying inspiratory flow rates and O3 concentrations. The authors proposed two main hypotheses associated with fractional nasal uptake of O3: 1) diffusion-reaction processes control O3 uptake in the nasal mucosa and 2) during short (
10 s) exposure durations, O3 uptake is independent of O3 concentration. They used acoustic rhinometry (AR) to assess nasal volume (Vn) and minimum cross-sectional area (MCA) of the nasal passage to determine a possible relationship between nasal morphometry and O3 uptake. Santiago et al. (24) discovered that fractional nasal O3 uptake decreased with increasing flow rate. The authors also observed that, at a constant flow rate, there were small but significant decreases in fractional O3 uptake with increasing O3 concentration. Finally, they found no relationship between Vn and fractional O3 uptake between subjects studied.
Endogenous nitric oxide (NO) is a highly reactive biological molecule produced in every organ. In the respiratory system, the highest production of NO is found in the paranasal sinuses (16). Although the physiological function of nasal and exhaled NO is not yet fully understood, research findings suggest that it may be important in host defense and inflammation (12). NO reacts with O3 (20) and thus may influence the uptake of O3 in the nasal passages. Exposure of healthy and asthmatic subjects to O3 (0.2 ppm for 4 h with interment exercise) did not seem to affect immediate postexposure exhaled NO concentration (20); however, there is no data on whether nasal NO influences uptake of O3 by the nose. Lundberg et al. (15) and Phillips et al. (22) report significant decreases in nasal NO after heavy exercise, suggesting that less NO may be available in the nose for reaction with inhaled O3 during exercise.
We prescreened subjects to determine their maximal exercise capacity on a bicycle ergometer while pedaling at a rate between 60 and 70 rpm. The 15-min prescreening was split into three graded and increasing 5-min submaximal exercise workloads (ranging from 25 to 125 W), concurrently monitoring heart rate with a three-lead ECG. A subject's maximum physical work capacity was then predicted via linear extrapolation of the exercise workload (Watts) heart rate relationship to individual predicted maximum heart rate adjusted for age (2, 20). Eight women and two men, recruited from the area in and around Chapel Hill, NC, passed screening to participate in the study.
O3 uptake measurements. To measure the nasal uptake of O3, we used a nasal O3 exposure system (Fig. 1) in which O3 is pulled through a subject's nose and out through his/her mouth. Subjects were required to hold their breath and keep their epiglottis closed during the measurement. Normally, closing the epiglottis tends to be an involuntary response that causes the upper airways to be isolated from the lower airways (e.g., before a cough to increase pressure in the thorax). For O3 uptake in upper airways to be measured, the epiglottis had to be kept closed for a minimum of 10 s to obtain adequate uptake data. If subjects could not perform the breath-holding maneuver required to make the O3 uptake measurements, they were dismissed from the remainder of the study. Fifty percent of screened subjects were unable to perform this maneuver.
Fractional O3 uptake measurements were conducted on subjects before and after moderate exercise. Nasal O3 uptake measurements were repeated three times at each of two flow rates (10 and 20 l/min). Before and immediately after the O3 uptake measurements, AR and nasal NO measurements were completed. Subjects exercised 15 min at between 40 and 60% of their maximum physical work capacity (determined during screening) on a bicycle ergometer. AR and NO exercise period to assess any changes in these nasal characteristics. The AR and NO measurements together took
3 min to complete. Nasal O3 uptake measurements were then repeated, again three measurements at both flows. The time between each measurement was recorded to ensure constancy between subjects. Immediately following the O3 uptake measurements, AR and NO measurements were repeated to ensure that neither the O3 exposure during the uptake measurement or the time required to make the measurements caused changes in nasal geometry or NO production.

en | N/A | N/A | Chiangmai (Chang Mai) is one of my favorite spot in Thailand. It locates just barely 700km from the busy, hazy, ever noisy and chaotic urban sprawl found in Metro City of Bangkok ("Krung Thep" in Thai). Surprisingly, this quiet cozy town is the ranked the eighth largest city in Thailand (even smaller than Hat Yai, the border city near Malaysian-Thai. But it is still the largest city at the northern Thailand. The distribution of economic development in Thailand is obviously not very even. Today, the foothill city of Chiang Mai still has retained much of its natural beauty and centuries old culture and heritage. For amulets collectors who may has the interest on old, half artifacts kind of Buddhist images, this is a perfect spot for good harvest because Chiangmai has a very rich and aged history in development of Buddhism as well as influence of raw Indian and a mix of neighboring Burmese culture in this region. Some 700+ years ago, King Mengrai and his dynasty had mostly concentrated their efforts in establishing Chiangmai as the capital of the Lanna Kingdom. Thus, combining Chiang Mai and Buddhism has produced many Buddhist Images of various forms and nature.
Similarly, amulet forms such as Phra Rod, Phra Gong (khong), Hari PunChai, Chiang Sean, Doi Sai, Na Prok, Samkampet (Kampheengphet,)and images by a local legendary monk, Grupa Srivichai are much treasured by amulets collecting groups all over Thailand. Perhaps , with thousands of years in political changes and spread/practice of Buddhism in the Northern Thailand also saw many establishments of very interesting Buddhist landmarks in this region. Popular tourist spots such as Wat Phra Borommathat Doi Suthep on the mid section of the mountain overseeing the entire City is a spot both for good photography as well as studying or appreciating Buddhist heritage. The Chedi was said to host relic of Lord Buddha (best time is either morning or in the evening where the Abbot will perform chanting services to the Chedi. Other equally interesting sites are location of the statue of Grupa Srivichai near the foothill on the way up to the hill site of Doi Suthep; Wat Jedee Luang is a spot that retained historical remains of the Chiang Mai earthquake in 1545; Wat Pra Singh, which locates in the city center for easy access; Wat Chiang Mun, reputedly regarded as the oldest Thai temple in Chiang Mai and many others. In relation to "Lanna" - Chiang Mai folks are still very proud of their history and there are some unique temples that strictly practice this very original code.
One thing is for sure, these images are simply acted as an introduction. Chiangmai, I will be back. |

UNPARALELLED FAN ACCESS
Yup! This is real football featuring guys who have been on NFL rosters, been through NFL training camps, and played high-level college ball. We have several key members of the FCFL with direct NFL experience, including co-founder Ray Austin, who played safety for the Chicago Bears and New York Jets, and is a proud Tennessee Volunteer. In addition, senior advisor Andy Dolich is the former Chand senior advisor Manish Jha is the former General Manager of Mobile Operations for the NFL.
The FCFL’s prototype was the Salt Lake Screaming Eagles, an organization in the Indoor Football League whose offense was run entirely by fan voting and ended the 2017 season ranked third in the league. The quarterback of the Screaming Eagles, Verlon Reed, was named rookie of the year. We are now taking this experience and applying it to an entire league. Real football; real fan engagement.
To learn more, check out this blog post introducing the FCFL to the world.
We haven’t finalized a location yet, but the plan is to have all 8 teams play the first season in one location. Each team will have its own style and identity, so fans favorite team won’t just be a random squad from their hometown but will be the team they most want to root for. Think of it kind of like PGA, Nascar or UFC – the athlete you root for in those sports is probably not from the same city as you, but you like them because you dig their game.
Can I try out for the league?
Definitely – if you are a legit top flight athlete with major college or pro football experience.
This is the Fan Controlled Football League, meaning the fans get to take over the role of the GM and Coaches. Its not the Fans Playing Football League, so only legit players need apply.
Be sure to sign up for more info and we’ll be announcing regional try-outs later this year.
F either directly on Twitch or via the FCFL mobile app.. Each of these votes, and the fan-run draft, will be in the FCFL app.
FAN Tokens will be the lifeblood for a new form of deeply fan-centric professional sports leagues where fans are tasked with making all operational decisions – from scouting and signing personnel, to strategizing for upcoming games, to calling plays in real-time. This is accomplished via crowdsourced, decentralized votes that are housed on the blockchain to maximize transparency.
Each fan’s token stack, along with their level of engagement, will determine the power of their vote for their team’s decisions: the more tokens a fan owns and the more tokens they have earned, the more weight their vote will carry. Fans are able to earn FAN Token through various touch points across the FCFL (and future leagues to come), including successfully calling plays, participating in votes and operational decisions, interacting with sponsors, creating and consuming content, and more.

en | N/A | N/A | This is one of those weeks in which I don't have performances. Nice to have a little break to catch up on office work and other stuff. Yesterday I mowed the lawn, then went out to help my brother-in-law split and stack firewood. That's for next year--I'm hoping I've lit my last fire of the season.
We used the hydraulic splitter, which is much easier than how I split wood at home. Here's the home method: get a log set up, set a wedge in the top, whack it with the maul and have it fall over, pick it up, whack it again, pick it up, whack, pick it up, whack, repeat until the wood gets tired of being knocked over and decides to split. Average time, 5 minutes. With the splitter, it takes seconds. Watch the fingers, though.
I stayed for lunch, and then my sister and I worked on choosing new pictures for my website. The pictures up now are about five years old--time to update. I know some storytellers who are still using photos from many years (and hairstyles and clothes sizes?) ago. Do they think people who book them won't notice? Maybe it's like a combover.
I spent the rest of the afternoon doing more office work at home, then went to yoga. It was a pleasant slow-paced day, wrapped up by watching the BBC Mystery series Campion.
I've got plenty to do today, but I'm taking the same easy pace. When I've hung the laundry on the line, I think I'll have lunch on the porch swing.
Mid-Missouri Storytelling Festival, part II
Back to the festival. Did I mention that it's put on by the Missouri River Regional Library and the Daniel Boone Regional Library, with tons of other sponsors? This year was the 10th anniversary, and there were 13 storytellers.
I performed at two Catholic schools on Thursday, two public schools on Friday, and twice at the Columbia Public Library on Saturday. On Thursday, I had kindergarteners through eighth graders in one group, then kindergarteners through sixth graders a the other school. Though I can perform for such a wide range of ages (5 to 13), and everybody did have a good time, I find a smaller range of age to be more effective. Obviously, kindergarteners are developmentally different from adolescents, so what fits for the younger kids might feel too small for the older kids. I end up spending extra time reassuring the older kids that I respect them.
On Friday I had a smaller range, kindergarteners to third graders (age 5-8). This made more sense. I was reminded of how every performance is different: the morning show had 60 kids who listened with quiet enjoyment. The afternoon group was about 250, in a sweltering gym just as a storm was rolling in, and the kids came in already excited. I had a good time playing with the energy, watching how the students settled in to a quiet story and then got a little wild with a more active tale. I always try to bring them back down to a manageable place before I send them back to class.
On Saturday at the Columbia Public Library, in the shows I shared with Beth Horner, we had families. The morning show was full of active tinies, the afternoon listeners had that post-lunch quiet energy. The really tiny children must have been at home having their naps.

Mid-Missouri Storytelling Festival, part I
I meant to blog while on the road last week, but I left the power cord to my laptop sitting quietly on my desk. I jumped online for a few minutes each day, not daring to spend too much of my battery power. Oh, and if you tried to e-mail me near the end of last week, try again. Had a few other glitches, now resolved.
I was in Jefferson City and Columbia, MO at the Mid-Missouri Storytelling Festival, my third year in a row at this mostly school-based festival. Some festivals take place at one site, some are spread over a larger region. For example, the Cape Girardeau Festival was held in three tents, while Mid-MO took place at almost 50 sites, mostly schools and libraries. Depth and breadth? Each style has its merits.
One of the fun things about this festival is getting to see the other storytellers in between shows (and we get to see some of them tell stories, tra la!). We check in with each other, talk about what we're working on, see pictures of grandchildren (Jim Two Crows even brought his grandson Zach), tell stories and jokes, play dice, sing and generally behave like the kind of grownups we are. That is, the kind who still remember how to play.

Outside In Storytelling Boot Camp
Remember this? Back in February I flew out to Phoenix to join Sean Buvala of Storyteller.net at the first Outside In Storytelling Boot Camp, which focused on marketing. We spent three days immersed in practical ideas about how to make a living as a storyteller (or other performing artist).
Tonight we had a follow-up conference call with a few of the participants. While I knew that I had benefited from the camp, I didn't know the extent to which others had. It was great to hear about specific changes participants have made since then, such as redefining their niches in storytelling, getting new promo pictures taken, launching web pages, and rewriting marketing materials. It was inspiring to hear how people's perspectives about the business of storytelling had changed for the better, thanks to the camp.
Sean has asked me to join him for another OISBC in August (he's doing a special one-day Storyteller.net Live in Austin, TX on May 10, so check that out if you're nearby). They'll have to crank the air conditioning up at the conference hotel, because all those good ideas generate lots of energy and heat!

Home from Going Deep, part III
Now back to your regularly scheduled program...
One of the many things I enjoy about the Storyteller's Riverhouse is helping in the kitchen. At WOW weekends, it's expected; at Going Deep, it's graciously accepted as long as there aren't too many people milling around. After lunch on Saturday, I pitched in on dishes and potato peeling. What is it about kitchens that brings out good conversation?
That evening after a feast of pork roast, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob and more, we were ready to settle in to the ancient world, to Helen's Troy, told by Megan Wells. She's deliberate about the title--this is about the Trojan war from Helen's point of view. I'd seen Megan tell this a few years ago at the National Storytelling Conference in Oklahoma City, so I knew it would be excellent. It was. This story was full of strong, clear images and characters we could believe in (whether we liked them or not).
On the way back to the Riverhouse, after putting the schoolhouse mostly back the way we found it, Olga and I talked about the richness of Megan's story and of the experience, about how wonderful it was to have three different styles of storytelling at Going Deep. Though our stated goal is depth, we also get breadth.
Back at the house, we sat up for a while longer talking, eating cake, drinking a little wine, some of us playing dice. I was exhausted when I finally went to bed.
The final workshop has the added dimension of being cumulative: our discussions brought in perspectives we'd touched on with the other two stories. Megan opened windows on her process for us, showing us ways she thinks about stories and how she works on them. Because of her candidness, and because of the way we had all made the workshops into a safe place, I think we all felt permission to speak (or not) about the issues she raised. We also had the poignancy of knowing it was the last group session.
We did it! It worked! Stay tuned for an announcement about next year.

Hansel and Gretel puppet opera
I'll get back to my posts about Going Deep tomorrow. Before I forget (and in case any of you are close by and can get to the last show at 2 p.m. on Sunday), I want to mention Paul Mesner Puppets and the Kansas City Chamber Orchestra production of the opera, Hansel and Gretel. I went last night and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The voices are done by soloists who are in full view of the audience, as well as a children's chorus. The puppets are five feet tall, on rods worked by up to three puppeteers at once (they're not visible, unless you're in the balcony). I especially liked Gretel and the Witch, who had 80s glam-rock hair.
I sat next to an eight-year old who also had a good time. Before the show, she and I discussed The Secret Garden and A Little Princess in detail, and I heard her speaking French to the adult cousin who brought her to the show.
The crowd of older folks in the row behind us enjoyed the performance just as much--I heard one gent guffawing at one of Paul's lovely comic touches. He's great at working comic relief into the show. For example, before the witches' dance, a puppet who looked very much like a popular young wizard from a contemporary series of books flew around the stage, and there was some nice silliness with a goose and a chicken. One of the women behind me announced to her friends in the intermission, "There were 14 angels , just as there should be."
The show is at the Folly in downtown Kansas City. I highly recommend it!

Home from Going Deep, part II
After Olga's story, we went back to the house for dessert crepes. Did I mention the food yet? Every meal and snack was not only delicious but imaginative. Thanks to Lee and Mary, who fed us well.
In the morning, we were ready to talk about Olga's story. Though we didn't plan it this way, the morning workshops followed a pattern: the first half was a lively discussion of the story from the night before (process, images, correlations with other stories, metaphors, questions); the second half was about the broader themes or about specific story processes, with participatory exercises. We settled into the story and into our own stories.
It was raining on that second day. I needed to tell myself Queen Berta and King Pippin, so I went for a long walk, mumbling to myself the entire way. Part of my walk was down by the Ohio River. When my sneakers were too wet, I went inside and finished the story in my room, pacing around the bed.
That evening, I wore a red velvet trousers and jacket, a particularly good bargain from the 100 Good Women clothing swap ($1!). Olga and Liz assured me that it would be the right combination of comfort and elegance.
I did my best to record each of the evenings' performances. I did each one differently: with Olga's story I patched the recorder into the headset microphone, with my story I patched into the microphone on a stand, and Megan's story was recorded directly from a spot on the side of the stage area. I'm not sure how they sound yet--one of my tasks this weekend is to listen to these. They might just be our mediocre archival copies.
My performance felt pretty good. I'm trying not to be too critical--there are always parts I wish I had done differently. The audience seemed to like it. It was nice to have quite a few listeners who were not part of the festival workshops. Once again, we went back to the house, this time for cake (dinner for me) and wine.
It can be hard to sleep after telling one of these big stories with a brain full of images. I did eventually conk out, though, and was up early to get ready for my workshop. As Hope mentioned in her blog, participants felt strongly enough about the story that the discussion got really loud in the morning session. We talked, we sang, we told stories, and we wrote.

Home from Going Deep, part I
Whew! That's all I seem to be able to say about the last week. Whew! I arrived at the Storyteller's Riverhouse in Bethlehem, IN on Wednesday afternoon. Nobody else was there yet, so I spent a few hours working on my story and napping. Very pleasant.
There were seven of us there early, so we got to work on Thursday morning, setting up the schoolhouse for the performances and attending to last minute details. In the afternoon we had a lovely wildflower tour--Mary Hamilton showed us Dutchman's britches, May apples, bloodroot and many more treasures near the road between Bethlehem and New Washington. Then three of us went on to the grocery store in Charlestown.
I'm trying not to dwell on the fact that my car got run into in the grocery store lot in Charlestown. Kitrina was napping in it, but wasn't hurt, thank goodness. It was hugely disappointing to have my new-to-me car hit. Today I got an estimate on the body work (insurance will take care of it) and they pounded a little bit of it out so I can now open the driver's side door all the way.
Anyway, that mishap didn't mar my enjoyment of Olga Loya's performance of The Aztec Creation Myth that evening. The story was even better than two years ago--and it was masterful then. Here's a picture of Olga next to the altar she set up:
We reveled in the sounds of the gods' and goddesses' names, we chanted, we joined a parade, we laughed and wondered and strongly felt the emotions of the story. Aaaah.
Going Deep was as intense as two years ago, so I can only write about it in bits. More soon.

I wish I had a picture of the baby puppet and Maynard the Moose doing improv together at the Cape Girardeau Storytelling Festival last weekend. Of course, Willy Claflin and I were there as well, but the puppets did all the heavy lifting.
To begin, Willy asked the audience for a problem and an animal.
It turned out to be a tattoo of a chicken, on the marmot's head. First the marmot tried to scrub the tattoo off. Then he went to the zoo, where the elephant worked on it. Then he went to the dermatologist, who used a sanding block.
I thought the baby could have come up with a better last choice, but it seemed to go over well. It was our first try ever at this kind of improv. I wonder if we'll get another try at it later this month, at the Mid-Missouri Storytelling Festival.

How 'bout them 'Hawks?
Okay, I'll get back to storytelling in my next post. I'm in Murray, KY on my way to Bethlehem, IN. I watched the NCAA Championships last night with a friend who graduated from KU. I taught Susan's son Sam to play dice while we watched the game. It was easier to watch without the sound. I'm not a rabid fan, but I do like to listen to the Kansas Jayhawks basketball games on the radio when I'm home.
Here was the scene in downtown Lawrence--if I'd been home, I probably would have heard it! In 1988 when they won, it was wild, with cars overturned and revelry all night long. I don't mind that I wasn't in town this time.

More on the Cape Storytelling Festival
Another beautiful day. Yesterday I had a couple of sets, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The morning session was titled (not by me) "Living in the Midwest." I do live in the Midwest, it's true (how 'bout them 'Hawks!), but I don't tell regional stories. When requested to, I usually tell folktales from countries where Midwesterners' families originated.
Even after years in Kansas, I'm still a New Englander. I had a conversation with Willy Claflin about feeling like a foreigner outside of New England--when we're there, we understand the language, both verbal and nonverbal, and the way of thinking and being. We relax into home.
Anyway, back to Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Marilyn Kinsella went first with some reminiscing stories of growing up in the '50s. I began with "Gramps' appendix," because the emcee reminded the listeners to gather their family stories. As a nod to the theme, I told "It's in the bag," a personal story about a temp job I had in a dog food factory in Lawrence. Then I ditched the Midwest altogether and told "The Belltower," about going back to St. Martin's Church in Providence, RI, where my father was minister in the 60s and early 70s. Nobody seemed to mind.
I shared the afternoon set with Willy Claflin and Dan Keding in a set with a title I liked better, "Stories for kids." Fun! After I got Trixie to stop brushing her hair with her toothbrush, I told "Goulu, the glutton," a school-inappropriate story and "We share everything" by Robert Munsch.
Today my first set, shared with Joyce Slater and Willy Claflin, is entitled "Kid's Stories." Easy peasy. Then the last set, with just Willy, is "Tickling the funny bone." We're considering having our puppets do an improv story.

It's sunny today! Yesterday was gray and cold, yet the first day of the first-ever Cape Girardeau Storytelling Festival was well attended. About 700 kids were brought in from area schools during the day, so they joined quite a few other attendees. We're hoping for good crowds today and tomorrow.
The organizers have been working on the festival for about two years, after getting inspired by the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, TN. They decided to start with a big splash, so they have a wonderful lineup of four headliners (Donald Davis, Sheila Kay Adams, Willy Claflin and Dan Keding), and five regional tellers (Joyce Slater, Jim Two Crows Wallen, Marilyn Kinsella, Doug Mishler and me). Blake Travis was scheduled but was very ill, so he's not here.
I'd never been to this pretty Mississippi river town. There's a long mural of river history down by the the banks, on the walls that protect the town from flooding. They've had incredible rain this year (one day a few weeks ago, they had 13 inches, I heard!), so the river is high. Today in one of the breaks I'll go down to have a look.
Time to go. I'll try to write more about this later.

You never know who might be a client
On Monday, the loss adjuster from the insurance company delivered a check for the old car. I mentioned that I switched the registration to my newer car because I have a vanity license plate (STORYTL).
Of course, the usual question followed, "What exactly do you do?"
We chatted about storytelling and then she gave me a funny look. "You aren't by any chance going to Valley Falls?"
Yup. I'll be there in two weeks. It turns out she has two kids at that school and she's on the PTO. They just approved the payment for the performances.
A few years ago, I was at a bluegrass festival, buying a fresh lemonade. The young woman making it asked if I was a storyteller. She had heard me when she was in elementary school. Another time, I was at Go Chicken Go!(love that name for a chicken restaurant), and the kid behind the counter asked if I was a librarian. He had heard me tell stories as part of the library program at the Juvenile Detention center a year before.

More commonly, fish being used for seafood has led to overfishing. Last century, for example, humankind took so many cod, herring, and sardines from the sea that their natural populations couldn’t keep up. This rapid wildlife removal occurred because, in the mid-20th century, leading food experts decided it would be in the public interest to make protein-heavy foods more widely available. Fish, as with most animal-based foods, are packed with protein, so suppliers ramped up their efforts to increase the amount of fish available for consumption.
These suppliers expanded their fishing efforts thanks to government help via relaxed fishing policies as well as subsidies and loans to industrial fishing operations. These operations received so many different forms of help that they quickly overtook regional boaters as the world’s main supplier of seafood, decimating the small-time boating industry in a way similar to how fish populations are still being decimated.
Efforts to increase the availability of fish across the world soon led to customers expecting to have easy access to seafood at all times of the year. In the 21st century, this demand has manifested as a threefold increase in the number of fish species that are being overfished. Similarly, global seafood demand has now pushed one out of every three fisheries well past its natural operating limits.
Overfishing thus strains not just fish, but people. With the strain on. Worse |

A Love of Plants, Cars and Life Make Jerry McAuliffe A Driving Force
October 16, 2013 - People & Places - Comments:
Just like that, a career was born. The story doesn't end there, however. What happened next inspired a lifelong hobby as well.
"He said, 'Jerry, how would you like a car?'" McAuliffe remembers. "I told him I didn't need a car."
McAuliffe accepted the deal. Fifty-three years later, not only does he still own the Rolls, but it is the centerpiece of more than a dozen classic and "special interest" cars that make up his private collection.
The 1960s were a golden time to start a business in or around Seattle. The 1962 World's Fair brought the city into the spotlight. The economy was booming and new homes were popping up everywhere. And these new homes needed landscaping, as did the accompanying new businesses. Jerry McAuliffe's fledgling company, McAuliffe Landscaping, quickly became established as a major player in design and installation.
Over the next 50 years, the company became the go-to landscaper for power players such as the Nordstrom and Diamond families, IBM and Microsoft, where McAuliffe met Bill Gates. In the 1980s, McAuliffe Landscaping was on a short list of companies invited to create dreamy gardens for homes on the new and popular Seattle Street of Dreams home tours. Over the course of a decade, McAuliffe Landscaping won numerous awards for its Street of Dreams designs.
Finally, after decades in the business, McAuliffe retired at the request of his wife, Joanne, who convinced her husband to move to their Hood Canal property in Seabeck to enjoy a well-earned retirement by a saltwater beach. The beautifully landscaped, 22-acre site of his business is now maintained as a park by the city of Kirkland.
Those 50 years in business were not "all work and no play" for the McAuliffes. Avid golfers, the couple played onHawaii, Brazil, Bermuda and Hong Kong. There they met the elite of the golfing world. McAuliffe remembers fondly when Arnold Palmer himself bounced McAuliffe's daughter on his knee.
Golf wasn't the only activity to bring McAuliffe in contact with the rich and famous. His long-term membership in the Classic Car Club of America lead to an overnighter at the home of fellow car collector Jay Leno. McAuliffe's home chapter once included Harold LeMay, who and founded the LeMay Auto Museum near the Tacoma Dome.
McAuliffe's own car collection includes Packards, Buicks, Chevrolets, Plymouths and a Cadillac. Among the rarer pieces are a 1941 Packard 160 convertible, a Montreal 1973 Cadillac Monarch, an original 1909 Ford Model T touring car and a 1932 Buick Straight-8. McAuliffe and his companion, Sherry Houser, have used all of the cars within the last few years, driving dignitaries in parades, participating in club drives and once circling the field as part of the opening day celebration at the Kingdome.
In 2001, the McAuliffes purchased part of the Emel estate, a waterfront property near Seabeck with some of the finest fjord-like views the canal has to offer. The uplands are studded with 400-year-old Douglas fir trees and 70-year-old native rhododendrons. The main house — originally a summer home — was built in 1937. For Joanne, the real selling point was the dock: one of the longest private fishing piers on the Hood Canal. Until her death in 2007, she caught a salmon nearly every day from this dock.
The McAuliffes modernized the main house and improved it, but left the basic structure intact. They did, however, add one distinctive detail: living room murals of the mountains, wildlifeem. Painted by artist Lee Johnson, the murals depict soaring eagles, breaching orcas and a passing submarine, all enjoyed by the figures of McAuliffe's children and grandchildren.
More than just a place for people, the grounds of McAuliffe's home are a magnet for wildlife as well. The fish that frequent nearby Big Beef Creek draw dozens of eagles in the summer. Two separate families of eagles have aeries at opposite sides to the house. Fish heads dropped from the nests attract foxes, which occasionally raise their kits under the small garage near the main house.
The big garage that holds the majority of McAuliffe's car collection sits on two acres separate from the house. Although termed "a garage," the interior of the building is more like the main street of a very tiny town. The front parking area that holds much of the collection is surrounded by two-story rooms designed to look like storefronts. The rooms include a dress shop, a hotel (complete with bed) and a gas station based on a picture of a 1950s-era filling station at the foot of Mount Rainier.

en | N/A | N/A | This is the first time we’ve covered BlueGold Capital Management so here’s their background: Founded by Pierre Andurand and Dennis Crema, BlueGold is a London based hedge fund that trades in commodities markets, primarily in oil derivatives. Before founding the firm, they were both senior oil traders at Vitol S.A. and they seek absolute returns “through discretionary fundamental trades, directional and relative-value.” They were up a whopping 209.4% for 2008, a year in which many other hedge funds struggled. Year to date for 2009, BlueGold is up 59.8%. Given that BlueGold primarily trades crude oil, we’d be remiss if we didn’t include a technical look at crude oil for reference.
Their November investor letter provides some interesting commentary on the economy on a macro level. Specifically, their macroeconomic thoughts are pinpointed in a few main talking points. Firstly, Stephen Jen (the author of this section of the letter) feels that the world will gradually recover and should continue on this course at least until next summer. He feels recent risks such as Dubai’s crisis are more-so a temporary distraction rather than a fundamental problem that will begin a wave of sovereign defaults. |

We will meet on Saturday October 26th at 8:00am at the Poulsbo park-n-ride on Viking Way across from the Sonic Drive-In. </s> According to European website The Local, Switzerland’s highest court has convicted three skiers of not taking adequate care when they triggered an avalanche that injured two people in 2009 in Anzère, Valais.
The three off-piste skiers were originally convicted by a district court, but that decision was overturned on appeal. The Federal Court in Lausanne subsequently allowed an appeal by the public prosecutor and ruled at the end of November that taking into account the trio’s experience and the signs warning of avalanches, they should not have crossed the slope above the area where the avalanche hit. In doing so they violated their duty of care. </s> As a photographer who has been inspired to spend most of his time in incredible (yet often precarious) places amongst our mighty Coast Range; I often find that the moments where a camera is the last thing I want to be dealing with, are often the moments that really matter. There is a delicate balance between the act and the art. Most importantly the camera cannot jeopardize a situation, it is an afterthought to the main objective. The same goes for any type of photography, the best camera is always the one you have, but even the best camera isn’t doing any good if it’s in a bag. I’ve experimented with tape, chord, carabiners, and all sorts of combination of the three to try and avoid committing to the camera bag but often these systems get tossed aside for the struggle I know, the neck strap. That is until I was connected with Cotton Carrier and their crafty solution to the problem of finding the best camera bag. This family-run and operated business located in North Vancouver has a long lineage of photographers working to create better experiences for active photographers.
With an easy to use locking system and low profile mount I’ve been using their chest harness in conjunction with a few of the coveted backpack straps (installed on my climbing harness or pack) to lock the camera out of the way but still within reach. On cold winter days, or just whenever the coastal squalls roll in; the slip-over weather cover keeps the camera out of your sweaty gore-tex, avoiding lens and sensor fogging -the Bain of any winter photogs existence. The harness is also outfitted with a backup strap that clips direct from the harness to the camera to avoid any user error, which I have been guilty of. There’s nothing like the gut-dropping sensation of testing a new system by shock-loading it with a $5000 camera a few hundred feet of the deck. Thankfully the products these guys make are meant to work and in the end it all comes down to function and efficiency.
The Cotton family have been hard at work streamlining their chest harness and are now releasing the next innovation that is lighter and faster, simplifying the experience and making it much easier to put on or take off -especially during heavy weather or cold conditions.
The holstering system is designed to work with any optics whether it be a camera or binocular and is now small enough and light enough to bring on most outingsthe new systems and check out the early-bird specials head over to their Kickbooster Campaign.

This year is very special. Kayaking With Kids is out! I wished I'd had a guide like this when my kids were little, and a Facebook page to ask questions, get advice, and share tips. Three years ago, Paine's Creek was devastated by winter storms. Run off washed then entire parking lot into the marsh. Pieces of it are now down as far as Saint's Landing. The sand is so eroded there is hardly any of the beach you see in these images left. The vegetation, once lush mature beach plums and dune grass are decimated. Last year, the beach was closed while work was done to create a filtered culvert to prevent the same thing from happening again.
Over the years, my family has picked up as much asphalt as we could but there always seems to be more.
Meet and Greet at Drummer Boy Park 9:30am-2 pm (Brewster Chamber of Commerce Table).
Pick up a pail and shovel, while supplies last. I will be signing books and discussing ecology and environmental issues in eco-tourism.
Then join me at Paine's Creek for kayak rides for the kids. Once we can access the marsh we'll have collect our debris and weigh in. Certificates will be distributed to each family.
To end the day we'll take a sunset nature walk on the flats

Even more exciting is a partnership with the Brewster Chamber of Commerce who is celebrating Conservation Day on July 12. I will be there, with giveaways, kayak rides for the kiddies, and a evening into sunset beach clean up. Festivities begin at 9:30 in Drummer Boy Park. At 3, follow me over to Paines Creek where there will be kayak rides for the kids and beach pails (while supplies last) to clear the asphalt from the marsh. Don't miss the fun--and the sunset. I will be there rain or shine, though I put in an order for lots of sunshine.
Be sure to RSVP at the Facebook event page and subscribe to the Blogger page.
The Brewster Chamber of Commerce and many local businesses have also partnered with me, and I can not be more thrilled.

I managed to find some historical records of ‘witchcraft’ in the region’s fringes, and I know the area well, so everything seemed to fit to make it an ideal setting.
I’m grateful to Damnation Books for taking the story on. The launch on 15 September will be accompanied by a live chat at 2pm. There’ll be giveaways and ‘variable pricing’ (i.e. discounts!) for early purchases.
So I understand you'll be doing research in the Scottish Highlands on release day. How authentic.
“Don’t burn me.” Bonnie’s wide eyes fixed on the flames dancing from the firebrand. “I’m really sorry I upset you. Please don’t burn me.”
“I’m sorry, for whatever I’ve done. I’m sorry.”
The Blue Eyed Man continued. “If you repent, witch. If you admit your sins, and renounce witchcraft…”
“Do it!” Ashmati screamed. “Just say it!”
“I’m sorry.” Bonnie whispered.
“Repent of your witchery.”
“I repent of my witchery.”

en | N/A | N/A | Phani (Chiranjeevi) is a Robin Hood kind of thief who steals from the rich and pays off the debts of the poor. Phani’s father Chandrasekhar died of a filmi heart attack as a result of Kodandaramayya’s (Rao Gopal Rao) chicanery. Kodandaramayya is still going strong with his thieving and extortion schemes and has a slimy sidekick in Anjaneyulu (Gollapudi Maruthi Rao) and a toadying servant Rama Subbaiah (Allu Ramalingaiah) plus a resident goon. As a good Telugu film hero, Phani is intent on avenging his family and getting his sister married well. He has a somewhat useful friend or sidekick in Ranga (Nutan Prasad) too. Phani falls for Kodandaramayya’s daughter Manjulatha (Radha) so you know the path to his revenge will be full of complications and spontaneous dance breaks. And that’s without the competition for apparently the only eligible man in town, Anjanayeulu’s son Rajesh (Raja).
From the perspective of anywhere but 1985 Telugu film that is so bad it’s awesome. What were they thinking? “We’ve done a lot of Jackie Chan stuff so let’s mix it up a bit…Bond? No, done that to death. Death…Death. I know!” But it worked, she succumbed despite her father’s disapproval.
DD is a modern villain with lots of gadgets to help automate his lair and people management responsibilities. He sends disappointing gang minions down the slippery dip of doom, into a cage where their certain death awaits. It’s quite impressive. That jumpsuit guy must be sore and cranky if he’s usually suspended on a bungee in the cage, waiting to do his murderous thing. And what lair would be complete without snakes, and a remote controlled electrified bird cage to contain your adversaries.
Bhanupriya is in good form as Pratyusha. She gets to show a little more than just be a love interest although ultimately she is shuffled to the sidelines so Chiru can get on with being Chiru. But Pratyusha has a profession and family and ideas about her own life. She was quite happy to call him out or to call the local comedy police out to get rid of him. But once they compared notes on the various overdoses and murders, she realised he wasn’t just a weirdo and started having elaborate dance fantasies. And that unleashed the creativity of the wardrobe department.
A is on high rotation and he really does roar. But you know how it goes. One minute you’re prancing around swearing with vim and vigour, next you’re hurtling down the doom tube to the thunder dome to fight to the death to save your patient Ma (Annapurna). |
en | N/A | N/A | Construction is a hazardous job that typically includes heavy machinery, unforgiving materials and harsh climate conditions. Developing a structure is inherently unsafe since you are on a website prior to any railings or other safety measures being constructed.
In addition to heights, building and construction requires working with equipment that is big and loud. Even if you saw a crane boom moving toward you, it might be impossible to alert the operator to stop it in time. However, all of the threat on construction sites does not simply originate from huge equipment. All power tools can be hazardous if they are not utilized correctly or if they malfunction. A pneumatic nail gun shoots nails through two-by-fours– envision the damage it could do if the nail missed the board.
Of these “deadly four,” falls were the most common. This is not an unexpected figure considering that ladder and scaffold infractions are in the leading ten most typically reported. The next 2 in order of frequency were electrocution and getting struck by an object. Lastly, around 4.3% of construction mishap fatalities were due to being caught up in a tool or crushed in between pieces of product, such as in a structure collapse.
Because of an improvement in general safety standards and a fortification of policies by OSHA, workplace deaths are down to about 13 each day in 2014 from a high of 38 a day in 1970. The rate of employee injuries and health problems has decreased considering that 1972 from 10.9 to 3.0.. |

Today, Loreto is much better off than it might have been otherwise, as a result of the sustainable development model, and the contributions to the community as a whole that came from that real estate development through our foundation. However, we are also seeing recent movements to start mining within the boundaries of the municipality; such activities are arguably inconsistent with the town’s ecological ordinance, particularly as it relates to the protection of extremely scarce water resources in the desert.

The enforcement action arose from a 2012 compliance evaluation into J.P. Morgan’s Investment Banking, Technology, and Market Strategies functional affirmative action program (FAAP). J.P. Morgan provided OFCCP with compensation data based on a 2012 snapshot of the FAAP’s employees, as well as a data file listing compensation changes during the two-year review period preceding the snapshot. J.P. Morgan refused to provide post-2012 compensation data in response to OFCCP’s request. J.P. Morgan contended that it disbanded the FAAP at issue in 2012 in a corporate reorganization, with the FAAP’s employees dispersed into 18 different business units and their corresponding FAAPs. In 2017, without receiving additional post-2012 data, OFCCP issued a Notice of Violation and filed an Administrative Complaint asserting that J.P. Morgan discriminated against female employees in the FAAP from 2012 and that the discrimination “continues to the present.”
J.P. Morgan challenged OFCCP’s post-2012 findings based on impact of the reorganization or use available mechanisms to obtain the post-2012 data J.P. Morgan had refused to provide. J.P. Morgan also argued that OFCCP’s regulations limit a contractor’s liability in an OFCCP evaluation to the two-year period preceding the start of the evaluation. Although the ALJ agreed with prior decisions holding that OFCCP may prosecute violations that begin in the review period and continue unremedied into the future, he expressed concern about the scope of OFCCP’s open-ended discrimination findings. The ALJ noted that contractors have a due process right to fair notice of OFCCP’s claims against them, and an enforcement action with no established end-date to the violation period infringed due process. He also explained that J.P. Morgan’s corporate reorganization could impact OFCCP’s ability to pursue alleged violations occurring after the reorganization. Because OFCCP had not sought discovery about the reorganization and elimination of the FAAP, however, the ALJ declined to issue a firm decision.
This decision continues an ongoing trend of ALJ rulings permitting OFCCP to seek and rely upon alleged evidence of discrimination outside of the review period. Because OFCCP can take years to complete complex audits, a contractor’s potential post-review period liability can extend longer than its liability for the actual review period. Although this evidence should only have possible relevance if OFCCP first (and independently) establishes a violation during the period under review, OFCCP frequently seeks to use post-review evidence to bolster its evidence for the review period. Contractors should carefully consider events like reorganizations or changes to their compensation structures that cut off continuing violation allegations and limit the contractor’s potential liability. </s> Pepper Allgood has helped clients successfully 30 years.

On top of that, add in the oats and baking powder, and blend until the batter is smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides, if needed.

en | N/A | N/A | On we go with this series taking a look back at some issues of Smash Hits from the 80s. This is one from 1 October 1981, and features Phil Oakey from The Human League on the cover. By the end of '81, they will have hit the big time with "Don't You Want Me", one of the biggest songs of this era, which was also a transatlantic chart-topper (indeed, The Human League would have more Number One singles in the US than the UK). Oh, and where's the free badge?
At this point, three years in, Smash Hits is still developing its style, and hadn't reached its late-80s peak yet. Even now, looking back at those issues makes you realise that there are so many made-up words and in-jokes that it can be tough to decipher them (unless "swingorilliant" has since made the dictionary), and baffling people in interviews by asking them if they think "Ruddy Big Pig" by Reg "Reg" Snipton is going to be the next big thing or whatever it was called.
I think I'm right in saying that the team behind the early days of Smash Hits also later launched Q, a magazine trying to do a similar style, but for older readers, hoping that people would eventually move from reading Smash Hits to Q, and that did work, for a bit at least. Now let's pick out some of the highlights from this 48-page issue…
The first songwords is "Thunder In The Mountains" by Toyah. Poor Toyah has now been locked in her kitchen for the past two years… And there is a note from the editors, informing readers of changes. The Indie and Disco pages have gone, and there are some new features. Hopefully it'll be worth the 3p price rise. The interview with The Human League is accompanied by songwords for "Open Your Heart".
Next is The Pictures, Bow Bow Wow are back, Gary Numan has a plane, Mood Six are the new The Move, a piano is about to fall on someone's head, and also exciting newcomers Bananarama. I can't see them getting anywhere?!? Next are more songwords with "Just Can't Get Enough" by Depeche Mode, and "It's My Party" by Dave "not that one" Stewart With Barbara Gaskin.
Then there's an interview with David and Sketch from Linx. The Bitz pages feature all of the latest music rumblings. These include Alexei Sayle's new album, The Higsons, a review of Madness's film Take It Or Leave It, the Indie and Disco charts, a profile of Buster from Bad Manners, Suggs's Top Ten, and a special apology for the wrong Star Teaser grid in the previous issue. Next songwords are "Mule (Chant No. 2)" by Beggar And Co., and "It Will Be Alright" by Odyssey.
The Police "Invisible Sun": "creamy"
Foreigner "Juke Box Hero": "leadweight"
New Order "Everything's Gone Green"/"Procession": "interesting"
Devo "Being Cool": "pompous"
The Cramps "The Crusher": "kneecaps"
Bill Nelson "Living In My Limousine": "slinky"
Dire Straits "Tunnel Of Love": "chunky"
On the albums page, highlights include "7" by Madness which scores, er, 8/10, and "Thirty Thousand Feet Over China" by The Passions top scores with 8½/10. Also notable is "Rhythm Breaks The Ice" by Bette Bright, soon to be Mrs Suggs, and helping out on this album is Ian Broudie, 15 years before "Three Lions". The Get Smart! column is where your music questions are answered ("Simple Minds discography, please"). All of these would be answered nowadays with "go on Wikipedia, you fool".
Next songwords are "Walking In The Sunshine" by Bad Manners, and "Mad Eyed Screamer" by The Creatures. And there's an interview with The Creatures, the Siouxsie And The Banshees spin-off group. Look, there's an Ultravox colour poster. More songwords with "Genius Of Love" by Tom Tom Club, and "He's A Liar" by The Bee Gees. Then there's an advert for The Face with Pamela Stephenson on the cover, and a quiz.
Next is an interview with parody group The Hee Bee Gee Bees, featuring Angus Deayton, Philip Pope, and Mike Stevens, soon to be among the cast of Radio Active. And there's the songwords for "Quite Ahead Of My Time" by David Bowwow. It's a shame that he didn't do a collaboration with another group around at the time, they could've called it David Bowwowbowwowwow.
Letters! "Could you tell me whether Champagne and Orange Juice doing a gig together would sound like Bucks Fizz?". Well that's a great way to earn a £5 record token. Then there's an advert for music and fashion magazine New Sounds New Styles. The request spot is "Get Off Of My Cloud" by The Rolling Stones. An interview with The Police features the songwords for "Invisible Sun".
Next are the Star Teaser and Crossword, with correct grids hopefully! Next songwords are "You Sure Look Good To Me" by Phyllis Hyman,en there's a stupendous competition to win a video recorder and Madness prizes. We are introduced to new columnist Barry, who knows a lot of things. The new concert column has a review of Depeche Mode. And next time, there's an Adam Ant poster… nice!
March 10, 2022 Adam Beckwith 1981, POP MUSIC, SMASH HITS, THE HUMAN LEAGUE Leave a comment
An introduction… A while ago I looked back at the history of pop music magazine Smash Hits, which ran for 28 years, and went from being hugely popular to disintegrating into irrelevance, just like so many of the groups that were featured. Recently I got hold of some editions of Smash Hits from the 80s. I know that all of them from this decade are available to view online, but for me there's still no substitute for holding the real thing in your hands'm "Geno" by Dexys Midnight Runners.
As we'll see, the distinctive voice that went on to define Smash Hits articles hadn't really been developed by this point, and the really big groups from the decade hadn't really arrived. There are no boy bands here! And would you believe it, on the cover is Siouxsie Sioux. Now having got into rather quirky and pioneering woman from this era recently, it's good to see her. Scattered throughout the pages are songwords (never described as "lyrics"), beginning with "Wheels Of Steel" by Saxon, and "My Oh My" by Sad Cafe.
Then there's songwords for "Something's Missing" by The Chords, "Staring At The Rude Boys" by The Ruts, and "Mirror In The Bathroom" by The Beat. And then we get the Siouxsie And The Banshees interview. They had a huge amount of hits in this decade, but only one of them made the Top Ten. And there is an advert for "a new rock monthly", which is The Face, another magazine that would define its era for a while.
The next songwords is "Coming Up" by Paul McCartney. Then there's "a videocassette",'N'h's T"Video Killed The Radio Star", and a new group called "Orchestral Manoeuvres".
Then there's an interview with The Bodysnatchers. About a year or two later most of them went into The Belle Stars, who had further success. As a septet that played ska music, they were sometimes called "The Female Madness". Next songwords is "Dear Miss Lonely Heart" by Phillip Lynott. Then there's a page about indie music. It does seem a little odd to see "ghettoised" pages about various genres, this wouldn't last long.
"Don't Make Waves" by The Nolans is the next songwords. Then there's a competition to win a mini TV by solving a crossword. Next is a disco music page. Among the hippest sounds of the moment are "The Groove" by Rodney Franklin, and "I Shoulda Loved Ya" by Narada Michael Walden, how funky. Then there's a double-page picture of The Specials in colour (this was long before full colour). Then there's an interview with Pete Townshend of The Who because for some reason "I'm The Face" which was recorded in 1964 when they were still called The High Numbers is being released, but this missed the Top 40.
Next songwords is "All For Leyna" by Billy Joel. Then there's's "Life On Mars""A Small Creature (In Shorts)" (?) There's a : "The Lonely Spy": "Swirling"
The Revillos: "Scuba Scuba": "Tackiness"
The Human League: "Holiday '80": "Synthesizers"
The Monochrome Set: "The Strange Boutique": "Clever"
Protex: "A Place In Your Heart": "Plain"
Lew Lewis: "1-30 2-30 3-35": "Rattling"
Lightning Raiders: "Psychedelic Musik": "Riffs"
Bob And Earl: "Harlem Shuffle": "Fandango"
Vic Godard And Subway Sect: "Split Up The Money": "Untidy"
Jah Wobble: "Betrayal": "Haphazard"
Clive Langer And The Boxes: "Splash (A Tear Comes Rolling Down)": "Uncluttered"
Dave Edmunds Rockpile: "I Hear You Knocking": "Crisp"
Cockney Rejects: "The Greatest Cockney Rip-Off": "Blustering"
Martha And The Muffins: "Saigon": "Expounding"
Gang Of Four: "Outside The Trains Don't Run On Time": "Tuneless"
Ian Gomm: "Slow Dancing": "Tolerable"
The Beat: "Mirror In The Bathroom": "Pumping"
Guns For Hire: : "Crude"
Echo And The Bunnymen: "Rescue": "Attractive"
And as for albums, Phyllis Hyman, New Musik, and The Cure come out on top with 8/10 reviews. More songwords with "Do You Remember Rock 'N' Roll Radio" by The Ramones and "Love and Loneliness" by The Motors". Now it's the Letters page, lots of debate here, although I was most amused by Helen M from Ashover's comment: "ABCDEFGHIJKLM NOPQRSTUVWXYZ. Well, you said it was a letters page". Then there's a gigs page, go on, go and see Martha And The Muffins. The final songwords is "A Forest" by The Cure.
In the next issue… Phil Lynott! Toyah! The Undertones! Finally, there is a poster of The Chords on the back cover. They are a group that I don't know that much about, but it seems that one of them went on to be in The Style Council. More of these Smash Hits reviews to come soon, join me when I go back in time again pop fans…
Something rather odd happened to Smash Hits in the early-90s. Not only was there a redesign that made it look like they'd recently got a shiny new computer at the office, but, they'd just about run out of pop stars to write about. Around 1992/1993 you'd be more likely to see "Hollywood Hunks" on the cover like Luke Perry, Keanu Reeves, and Christian Slater, or TV presenters including Toby Anstis, Chris Evans and Andi Peters. What?!?!
And inside you'd be more likely to come across gossip about people in Home And Away than any interviews with star names. This was mostly down to the increasingly "faceless" amount of pop music around, with many enjoyable but here today-gone tomorrow anonymous dance acts filling up the singles chart with their rackets. Come back Rick Astley, all is forgiven. However, a letter from my sister was published in an issue around this time, so clearly all was not lost.
And in 1992, Number One closed and merged with Fast Forward, meaning that after nine years they had seen off their closest rival. One enjoyable feature around this time was "Oh No! Not The Biscuit Tin!", where various people had to answer bizarre questions picked at random from the tin. Things picked up a little in the mid-90s when they tried to embrace Britpop, and all the major players made the cover including Blur, Oasis, and, er, The Bluetones, but was this really the place for them?
In 1997, there was a TV advertising campaign, with the phrase "100% Pure Pop", which featured a young Billie Piper, who launched a pop music career of her own about a year later, and soon she was appearing on the cover herself. And by the late-90s, there was the Boy Band invasion. These rather bland and interchangeable characters received a line of questioning that strayed little beyond wondering who they were currently "snogging" (anything more probing than this was usually answered with "oh my god!"), which was usually accompanied by a big picture of them with their top off.
S Club 7, Steps, Westlife and the like practically alternated on the cover, weren't there any other pop groups out there? Coming into 2000, and I was in my mid-teens at this time, and I was really into pop music. There were some changes including a new masthead replacing the one that had been around since 1985, probably to get ready for the new millennium or something.
Also around this time, the brand (I don't like to describe a magazine as a "brand", but this one really was) was expanded, with the introduction of a TV channel and radio station. But sales were beginning to fall, and while Smash Hits might have been a big deal in the 80s, there was a new generation coming along that wasn't really that interested.
And then we go into the era where Pop Idol and the like took off, and now the magazine was filled with rather a lot of pointless gossip and uninteresting manufactured pop stars, along with endless price increases and more free gifts. It's a rather easy comparison to make, but the magazine was now falling out of favour, just like so many acts that had briefly featured in their pages over the years.
November 19, 2020 Adam Beckwith POP MUSIC, SMASH HITS 2 Comments
A while ago I was asked to take a look back at the history of the pop music magazine Smash Hits. I wasn't that much of a regular reader myself, but my sister definitely was, so I was familiar with the magazine to some extent when I was younger, and I have also seen plenty online, so here's a look back at some of the fortunes that Smash Hits went through during the 28 years that it was published.

Smash Hits launched in 1978, and was originally a monthly magazine, becoming a fortnightly shortly after in 1979. By this point, pop music as we would come to know it hadn't really developed yet. There weren't a huge amount of pages, and hardly any of these were in colour, but there was an ing posters, "songwords" of all the latest hits, and even a column dedicated to the latest in disco music.
It took a few years, but Smash Hits would soon develop its famous style and go on to be a big success with readers going into the early-80s. I do get frustrated when people seem to sum up 80s pop music as "1980-1984 = endlessly brilliant, 1985-1989 = complete rubbish", does looking back at old issues now make it possible to challenge this idea? The singles review page might be able to, with a lot of tut-tutting about the state of what was on offer, which was supposedly in a golden era.
By now, pop stars would be asked some very odd questions in interviews, much unlike what you'd get in any other music magazine. Fortunately, most of them had the charisma and personality to deal with this, leading to many entertaining moments. Where pop stars more charismatic in those days? There was a very distinctive journalistic style, inventing a lot of words and catchphrases along the way.
In 1983, No. 1 launched, a weekly magazine that was considered to be their closest rival on the market, not that they ever seemed to fear them. Another notable thing about the 80s is just how many acts appeared on the cover who went on to have big success, with possibly only Matt Fretton and Jimmy The Hoover making people familiar with that era when looking back say now "who where they?". That's why they stuck to the endless Duran Duran covers.
Among the writers at this time was Neil Tennant. After a while, Neil decided to leave to have a go at being a pop star himself. This departure was greeted with a typical "well good luck with that, see you back in the office in six months"-type comment. A year or two later, Neil was having chart-topping singles with the Pet Shop Boys in America, and he definitely succeeded in his ambition. It looks like they will have to get a new writer in after all.
When looking back at some issues from this era, I couldn't help but notice that they also used some Private Eye-isms, such as "So. Farewell then…" and "shurely shome mishtake". I wasn't expecting any crossover between the two magazines but there clearly was (that'll do). There was also a lot of spin-off merchandise by now, including yearbooks, sticker books, and even compilation albums, along with an American version called Star HitLeave a comment |

My passion for the violin was ignited at the age of eight, when I started playing the instrument as one of Annemarie Swanepoel's pupils in Pretoria. During 1990, while studying engineering, I toured Europe with a friend and a chance visit to Mittenwald inspired me to attempt building my first violin.
