Vicky Gene Robinson Splits Again-- Amicably
Vicky "Gene" Robinson, the retired Episcopalian Bishop of New Hampshire, has created controversy again by splitting from his current "spouse".
Robinson married his Isabella "Boo" Martin in 1972 when he was a seminarian chaplain at the University of Vermont before he was ordained. Isabella bore him two daughters. As Gene Robinson mused about marriage:
"[T]hat is inextricably tied up with having children. And since I cannot imagine my life without Jamee and Ella, it's just a completely irrelevant question for me. And I don't regret having been married to Boo, either, even if there had not been children. It's just a part of my journey, and why would I possibly regret that?"
However after receiving counseling in 1985, Robinson came in touch with his homosexual identity. So then Vicky Gene he dumped his wife of 13 years literally before the altar, while promising to raise their daughters together. Robinson rationalized with Isabella: [I]n order to live up to our vow to honor one another in the name of God, that we would let each other go."
Robinson had been elected bishop of New Hampshire in 2003. He was the first openly gay priest who was consecrated bishop (although Bishop Otis Charles of Utah divorced his wife in 1993 after he retired to "marry" his homosexual partner in California, who he survived).
Robinson became a cause celebre in the LGBTQQ community and wrote a couple of books, an autobiography "The Eye of the Storm" (2008) and "God Believes in Love: Straight Talk about Gay Marriage" (2012). Robinson was prominently featured in the Sundance festival film "For the Bible Tells Me So" (2007) on the perceived conflict between homosexuality and Christianity. Moreover, a documentary "Love Free or Die", chronicled Robinson's conflict to love God and his partner Mark Andrew.
Mark Andrew, Robinson's new love interest came on the scene in 1987 while vacationing in St. Croix.
In 1988, the former bishop of New Hampshire Douglas Theuner blessed their home, which Robinson considered a license by the Episcopal Church as a formal recognition of their "life together". Andrews and Robinson "lived in sin" for 13 years. Robinson said: "I always wanted to be a June bride", so Andrews and Robinson tied the knot in a civil ceremony on June 7, 2008 and and having their "legal union" blessed at a religious ceremony at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Concord, New Hampshire.
Alas, honoring one's wife by divorcing her, shacking up with another guy as bishop and then becoming a June bride while deeply dividing the Anglican Communion is not the end of the New Age fairy-book tale of faithfully following one's heart. Now retired Bishop Gene Robinson announced that he is divorcing his partner of 25 years Mark Andrew. Once again, Robinson has nothing but nice things to say about the spouse whom he is jilting. In addition, Robinson has the temerity to claim: "Love can endure, even if the marriage cannot." What poppycock!
Before Robinson retired in 2012, he complained about then intense scrutiny that he has endured. OK he walked away from his wife, shacked up with another guy for 25 years, was elected bishop, regaled in the Homosexual community honoring his example and then wrote books about marriage. Robinson was tapped by then President-elect Obama to give the invocation for his 2009 Inaugural Kick Off Event on the Steps of the Lincoln Memorial. To top it off, Robinson, who now works for the George Soros funded Center for American Progress. Hence, it was unsurprising that President Obama "spontaneously" asked Robinson to perform the closing prayer.
In these gay old times, it is not news that President Obama now embraces Same-Sex Marriage. Nor is it earth-shattering that the Episcopal Church in America seeks to normalize such unions and incorporate them into the Anglican Communion. What is worth reflection is the meaning of marriage based upon Vicky Gene Robinson's own terms.
This is the second marriage from which Robinson has walked away. The first marriage was because Robinson chose to identify with his homosexual inclinations and abandoned his bride of 13 years. Now Robinson is parting with his husband Mark Andrew nearly seven years (and "living in sin" for another 13 years). Robinson is not citing abuse or adultery charges in his public statements, so civilly it might understood as "irreconciliable differences" as New Hampshire has no fault divorce.
In the Deuteronomic Law, Moses allowed divorce as a concession to the stiff necked Israelites. As Jesus Christ shared the New Covenant, the messiah reaffirmed the covenant nature of nuptials bringing together one man and one woman to create a new life through love and establish a home church. Catholics have tried to keep a covenental nature to marriage by making the annulment process arduous in establishing that marital parties did not have the proper capacity (or understand) of entering into the sacrament.
Per the Book of Common Prayer, sacraments are outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual grace." Matrimony is included as one off these sacraments. But these words seem like window dressing as Episcopalians countenance and glorify a bishop who has twice abandoned his beloved spouses, each for spurious reasons. But, at least Vicky Gene Robinson can split again amicably.

Chaldean Patriarch Condemns ISIS Crimes Against Humanity
As ISIS exercised its power in Mosul on Saturday, it gave religious minorities which differ from their extreme Wahabbist practice of Islam a choice: Convert, flee or die by the sword according to the Qu'ran. Those who fled were totally dispossessed. As the militant ISIS jihadists took over, they blew up shrines and mosques of these minorities.
Mosul (or Ninevah during biblical times) had been a city where tnes of thousands of Christians had once lived, dating back to nearly the beginning of Christianity. It had also been the a city were diverse faiths flourished. It seems that those days are over. It was estimated in early July that there were only 200 Christians left in the city, and that there were no priests nor masses being held there.
Patriarch Louis Raphael, the Patriarch of the Chaldean Catholic Church, proclaimed that these militant Wahabbists were worse than Genghis Khan during a special church service held in East Baghdad.
It was remarkable that 200 Muslims joined in solidarity with Christians to decry these heinous acts. Muslims at the service held up papers saying "I am Iraqi,I am Christian" as well as some writing it on their shirts. Some Christians wore the Arabic letter "Nun", which stood for Nazari--the derogatory Muslim term for Christians which also was the red mark for extermination and expropriation in the ISIS controlled city.
In Rome, Pope Francis remembered the persecution which these Arab Christians are suffering. The Holy Father assured them that they are in his constant prayers: "My dear brothers and sisters who are persecuted, I know how much you suffer; I know that you are deprived of all. I am with you in faith in He who conquered evil".
While these prayers are certainly appreciated, it has not changed the facts on the ground that the Middle East is rapidly being stripped of its longstanding Christian population and heritage. And so far, the international response has been anemic flowery despite proclamations about treasuring religious liberty. Both the Patriach of Antioch and the Syrians along with Chaldean Bishop Shlemon Wardooni have called upon the international community for support.

On ISIS Marking Christians for Extermination and Expropriation in Iraq
As jihadist Sunni Islamist terrorists from ISIS/ISIL strive to create a sharia inspired Caliphate as they take over territory in Iraq and Syria, they are slaughtering innocent Christians.
However, even sharia law allows for dhimmitude, second class citizen status for "people of the book" (i.e. Jews and Christians) so long as they pay the jizya tax. But that is not good enough for ISIS jihadists. They have taken to mark the buildings of Christian institutions with spray-painted red marks indicating holdouts to exterminate and expropriate.
Spraypainted ISIS Extermination Graffiti on Christian buildings in Mosel, Iraq
"Nun" 14th letter in Arabic alphabet
The symbol is "Nun", the 14th letter in the Arabic alphabet. It is the first letter in the name "Nazara" (or Nazarenes) the way in which Muslims have referred to Christians since the 7th Century. This is intended as a badge of shame for what is perceived as a contemptible and disobedient sect.
While those who follow world events may be aware of the genocidal fervor of ISIS terrorism, it is for this systematic genocide to get lost in the tumult of today's world news. Patriarch Ignatius Joseph III Younan's interview with Vatican Radio was a shocking reminder of the consequences of America's precipitous withdrawal from Iraq and not tamping down Islamist forces in Mesopotamia. There are no Christians left in Mosul. Many Christian refugees have fled to Kuridstan, but now their Prime Minister claims that it can receive no more refugees. The last ten families fleeing from the Mosul area were robbed of everything they own and left at the frontier of the city. Now they may not have anyplace to which to go.
Sophisticates in the West mock the notion that Christians are being persecuted around the world. The "Nun" marks in Mosul show that Christian brothers and sisters are being marked for their faith and may face martyrdom.
It would not be a panacea but if Western powers really stood for religious liberty, actions could be taken to mitigate the ISIS mire. But with Secretary of State John Kerry's recent equivocation about religious pluralism rather than noting the source threatening religious liberty in Ethiopia as well as the Obama Administration's open hostility to people practicing their faith in the public square, this issue is likely to be way behind priorities such as political fundraisers and swanky vacations.

Cristiano Ronaldo's Mother Tried to Abort the Unborn Soccer Superstar
Dolores Aveiro, the mother of Real Madrid (and formerly Manchester United) soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, helped author a candid autobiography with ghost writer Paulo Sousa Costa titled: Mãe Coragem "Mother Courage" which was recently had its lusophone launch in Lisbon. Aveiro had wanted to dub the book "A Woman Is a Woman" as a nod to German modernist playwright Bertolt Brecht's "Man Is a Man". But "Mother Courage"'s subtitle: "The Life the Force and the Faith of a Fighter" better explains her homage to the struggles of mothers.
In the book, Ms. Aveiro revealed that when she was pregnant with Cristiano on the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira in 1984, she tried to abort him. Dolores Aveiro reasoned that she was 30 years old, already the mother of three children and her poor gardener husband was an alcoholic. When doctors rejected her reasoning, "Mother Courage" tried to do the dirty deed herself with a homemade abortifacient concoction of warm ale and running until she dropped. Fortunately for the F.I.F.A. world, her attempts to abort were unsuccessful.
When Cristiano Ronaldo learned that his mother tried to kill him in utero, he seemingly took it in good spirits, joking about who pulled the purse strings in the house. Perhaps it was a coincidence, but Ronaldo was not present for the book launch, nor was one of his brothers. Dolores excused the absence, since she claims that he knew what she would say.
Aside from giving birth to Ronaldo, Dolores Aveiro encouraged her son to channel frustrations about school into improving his atheleticism and soccer skills. Later, when her superstar son fathered a child in Florida, Dolores dedicated herself to raising her grandson.
Amongst the allegedly enlightened intellectuals who are pro-abortion rights, terminating a pregnancy is simply "reproductive rights" which is between a women and her doctors. Well, had Dolores Aveiro been successful of getting rid of a pregnancy problem when she felt under mental duress, the world would have never seen the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro.

CBS Late Night Spotlights Strident Iconoclast Alternative Rock Singer
CBS' The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson recently gave alternative rock singer Kristeen Young her American network television debut singing "Pearl of a Girl".
For those who found Young's singing to be more discordant disharmony rather than what NPR shills as "beguiling and visceral" singing, here are the lyrics to "Pearl of a Girl":
I never knew I was a girl until they stopped to tell me.
I never knew I was disturbed until they dropped three volumes on me.
But in the Bible/Torah/Quran there are really no good roles for me except concubine and wash woman.
I used to be the sad one now I just want to stab them it's so severe, it's brutal.
They've needed to have the law so they can legally bind us.
They've needed the church so they can morally ground us.
They've needed to make the dough they've must be so scared of us.
So their stories are of ghosts.
I only wish the virgin would've had an abortion.
Young's iconoclastic lyrics sought to condemn all major religions for centuries of religious persecution and keeping women in subservient roles. Yet fashion and imaging for "The Knife Shift" goes out of its way to insult all of the Abrahamic faiths. And she does the Knife Shift to suggest that the Virgin Mary should have aborted the Christ child.
For example, Young prides herself on creating her own fashion. Young proudly describes a skirt that she designed which she painted on symbols of the three major religions which she intentionally defaced. The cross and the crescent moon were positioned upside down and the Stars of David looked like it was a shirukin throwing stars.
The iconoclast artist also claimed: "I feel like making and wearing something Satanic". This provocative fashion and lyric is a marked contrast to her avowed approach to art "the freedom and diversity of many styles grouped together". Young not only felt compelled to shout her song from the rooftop but to insult all with whom she disagrees. So much for coexist.
"The Pearl of a Girl" was not the 37 year old strident chanteuse's first foray into what charitably can be seen as clashing with religious and cultural constraints. In her six album discography, her tracks include "No Other God", "Commit Adultery", "Devil Girl", "The Devil Made Me", "Son of Man", and "Protestant". Somehow, it seems unlikely that one would hear tracks from "Music for Strippers, Hookers and the Odd On-Looker" (2009) on a Praise music channel.
Some interviews with Kristeen Young intimate a woman who was troubled by her youth in St. Louis where she struggled with religion and non-conformity. But instead of fashioning these inclinations like Madonna, they manifested themselves like her estwhile mentor Morrissey with a panache of Lady Gaga.
It is not uncommon for rock musicians to push the envelope of taste and engage in épater le bourgeois. After all, a famous Rolling Stones song is "Sympathy for the Devil" (1968) which attributes the tumult of the 1960s to the hellish anti-hero. In addition, the Rolling Stones also issued a record: "Their Satantic Majestic Request" (1967), which was their only attempt at psychodelia. Mick Jagger summed it up best:
"There's a lot of rubbish on Satanic Majesties. Just too much time on our hands, too many drugs, no producer to tell us, 'Enough already, thank you very much, now can we get just get on with this song?'"
Rather than adopt a anti-hero narrative or compose a session stoned, Kristeen Young consistently follows a world view that it ardently iconoclastic and anti-religious as most people of faith would understand it.
So why give Young the publicity which she cravenly covets? It shows how CBS has stooped to conquer. When The Doors appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1967, they were asked to change the Robbie Krieger lyrics to "Light My Fire" so as not to sing "Girl we could get much higher". Of course, Jim Morrison flouted this promise and The Doors got banned. That same year, the Rolling Stones--the bad boys of rock and roll--changed the lyrics to a popular song to "Let's spend some time together" to not scandalize audiences.
The CBS "Pearl of a Girl" spot exemplifies the mainstreaming of alternative lifestyles which the great silent majority finds alien and mildly offensive. This is a nation which is tolerant of a wide variety of views and lifestyles, but the Lamestream Media and the cultural intelligentsia is pushing a weltanschauung which excludes all but the politically correct perspective of the moment. The episode underlines why Christians feel like they are under attack, albeit in this instance culturally. To change this cultural assault, the faithful must recognize the challenge in order to peacefully confront challenges.
Considering his choice in guests, it is no wonder why Craig Ferguson was not fingered to be David Letterman's replacement.

Invoking JFK on Religious Liberty
In the wake of the recent Supreme Court ruling in Hobby Lobby (2014) which allowed closely held corporations to follow deeply held religious tenets and not pay for abortifacients which kill human life, the United States Senate considered S. 2578, the so called "Protect Womens' Health From Corporate Interference Bill".
One of the more poignant speeches during the Senate floor debate was by Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX). Cruz observed that the practical effect of S. 2578 would gut the Free Exercise of Religion clause from the First Amendment of the Constitution and impose federal will upon all 50 states through the supremacy clause.
To bolster his argument, Senator Cruz concluded his speech by boldly invoking John F. Kennedy's quote on religious liberty to condemn so called "faith fines".
Seasoned political junkies realize that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) brought S. 2578 to a vote as a cheap political stunt which had no actual chance of passage but would gin up a liberal base through identity politics and scare tactic campaigns during a tough election cycle. While the bill won the votes of all Democrat Senators and a few RINO Republicans (Murkowski, Kirk, and Collins), it failed the cloture vote 56-43, with the Senate Majority Leader switching sides for the ability to vote on it again later.
While this vote on S. 2578 was doomed for legislative failure is instructive. Senate Democrats seem to care more about partisan politics and elections than respecting Federalism, the First Amendment and Religious Liberty. Cruz quoting JFK spotlights the progress (and arguably the devolution) of the modern Democrat party. And the episode shows how Christianity is endangered even in America,

Abortion Advocates Call Faithful Nuns as "Dirty"
During a tough interview with Megyn Kelly on Fox News Channel, Patricia Ireland speaking on behalf of the National Organization for Women (NOW) sought to justify NOW's labeling of the Little Sisters of the Poor as part of the "Dirty 100" in light of the recent Burwell v. Hobby Lobby (2014) Supreme Court ruling.
Ireland deflected the denigration of the Catholic nuns as being like the "Dirty Dozen" with other corporations, presumably for fundraising efforts. But Kelly does not let her off than easily, suggesting that the nuns be considered "Groups with whom we disagree".
The former NOW President kept insisting that the Little Sisters could "opt out" of the Obamacare contraception mandate. Except the alleged work around forces the Sisters to sign the Form 700 document permitting others to provide the abortifacients which are anathematic to their faith.
Ireland offered patronizing lip service to the nuns' living their faith and helping the indigent infirmed. But what she does not realize is that if the Little Sisters of the Poor are eventually forced to pay for such unwanted services ordered by former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sibelius then they will move out rather than contravene their consciences.
Ireland insisted that I.U.D.s, which is one of the abortifacients in question, does not kill eggs in the uterus. Well, that's not quite true. Generally, inter-uterine devices act as spermicide to prevent fertilization but copper I.U.D.s are touted as an emergency contraceptive for five days after intercourse. Most sperm dies within two days after ejaculation (even in the uterus), thus the emergency contraceptive quality of such I.U.Ds intimates that it prevents the implantation of the blastocyst thereby killing a fertilized egg.
Ireland incorrectly asserted that the Supreme Court had ruled on the "opt-out" provision. Hobby Lobby covered closely held corporations with conscience objections but Obamacare opt-outs for non-profits has not been decided yet (although SCOTUS has offered a unanimous injunction pending appeal on January 24th, 2014).
Ireland's fatal rhetorical faux pas was her bon mot that Supreme Court decisions do not affect the reality. The hostess of the Kelly Files jumped in and asked if Roe v. Wade affected the reality. T o borrow an oft uttered Ireland phrase from the interview "Bless her heart."

Should the World Cup Be an Orthodox Anathema?
Alexander Shumsky, a Russian Orthodox priest who is also a member of the Russian Writers Union, gave the foot fashion on World Cup players the boot.
Shumsky's critique is centered on the bright colors of the Puma Trick shoes, which were designed for the 2014 World Cup being held in Brazil.
Puma's reasoning for the exotic color palate for the football boots was because Brazil is all about vibrant colors. The context for Shumsky condemning the World Cup as anathema has not been widely circulated outside of Russia. However, the thrust of the critique does mirror the homosexual tolerance controversy which shrouded the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Shumsky's perspective on FIFA had better lighten up, considering that Vladimir Putin has secured the 2018 World Cup in Russia, with the finals being held in Sochi. Maybe by then the hotels in Sochi will be finished.

What option is clearing Windows 7 Reliability Monitor ?

Q: function inside if statement executing multiple times I have a container element that is being loaded multiple times to show variable content on a click event through an Ajax request and upon ajax Complete i have some functions being called including a function (A) inside an if statement.
My problem is when function (A) finally gets called, it gets called multiple times depending on how many times the container had been loaded before the if statement is true.
Here is simple version of my code:
$(".button").on("click", function(){
  loadContainer();
});

var loadContainer = function(){
  $(".container").load(url, function(){
    var x = $(".x");
    if(x.length>0){
      A();
    };
  });
};

x is an element $(".x") that will be loaded in the container and the function (A) should only be called when that element gets loaded. i.e. $(".x").length>0
if (x.length>0) is true after say 3 times of loading the container then function (A) will be called 3 times then.
is there a way around this or a way to make sure function (A) gets called only once??
Edit:
My full code:
    ajaxBtn.on("click", function(e) {

        loadContainer(url, curtain, mainContainer, body, links);
   });
var loadContainer = function(url, curtain, maincontainer, body, links) {

        $(".main-container").load(url + " .main-container  > *", function() {
            $("#logo").css({
                "z-index": "400"
            });

            mainFun();
            curtain.removeClass("full");
            links.removeClass("here");
            body.removeClass("no-scroll");
            clearInterval(timer);
            getFlexIndex();
            position = 0;

            if (vidContainer.length > 0) {
                youTubeLazyLoad();
            }
        });
};

please assume that all the variables are already defined.

A: It sounds like you are adding the same button click listener numerous times
You should look into how this occurs as there is not enough shown for us to know why. Is it embedded inside another event handler perhaps? Or in a function that gets called numerous times?
A workaround is to remove the click listener before adding a new one
Change
$(".button").on("click"...

to
$(".button").off('click').on("click"...

I've decided that my goals for the year are unrealistic. I don't know why I made so many when I haven't made a dent in any of them. I know I won't clear 2k worth of CC debt which is on CC2. It's too late into the year to change my goals, I just better get working on them. I really better get started on the car maintenance fund and EF. If I'd had them in the first place I wouldn't have had to put over �700 on CC1.
Goals for this month are to start car maintenance fund and EF.
It is never too late to change your goals. Depending on the economy, your job, family and just life in general (which sometimes gets in the way), goals should be revisted and adjusted accordingly.
I'd change the goals if they were unrealistic. It is never too late!
I think more realistic goals would help you feel more accomplishment.
Absolutely set helpful but reachable goals. If you reach them before the target date, you can always go beyond. I kid you not, even with something as simple as cleaning up the kitchen, I sometimes say to myself, "Just start with washing six items and putting away six items." Money goals can work the same way. Just start with putting �6 here and �6 there.
You still have several months left of the year, but goals are meant to be adjusted as time passes and can be broken down in steps. Maybe you just need to break it down into smaller steps?


This is a reduced pressure detector assembly. Production began in 1999. The mainline assembly is similar to the model 375 or 475. The bypass utilizes a model similar to the 975 XLD 3/4" The model 375 DA is a straight horizontal piping orientation and comes in sizes 2 1/2"-10". The model 475 DA is able to provide an up and down or vertical piping orientation and comes in sizes 4"-10". Repair kits will be the same for both models. In 2004 the 375DA became available in an "A" model (e.g.375ADA ). The A model uses a grooved end valve body configuration as opposed to a flanged end valve body.

By Ezra Stead
If I had to pick a favorite month, it would most likely be October. The weather is perfect and I have all the excuse I need to watch practically nothing but horror movies for a month. This year I watched or revisited 25 films of varying quality, and I'm passing along the recommendations to you. I've broken them down into three basic categories, with a fourth "Other" category for those that don't fit any of the big three. The Undead includes zombies, vampires, Frankensteins, and of course the immortal curse of the Candyman; Mutants & Monsters covers genetic freaks, giant animals and other Things That Should Not Be; Werewolves is pretty self-explanatory. All films are ranked from highest recommendation to lowest, ***** being the highest rating and * being the lowest. Happy viewing! Read More

Category Film Reviews, Movies I Didn't Get, Movies I Got
Every year, I struggle with the relatively arbitrary process of ranking movies, so this year I've decided to do something a little different. Instead of a traditional Top Ten list, I'm grouping two thematically connected films together for each place on the list, resulting in a hopefully more interesting Top 20 list. I've also included a more traditional Top Ten below that, for all you "too long, didn't read" folks. One final note before we get to the list: it should tell you a lot about my credibility as a film critic that I liked Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa more than most of the Academy Award Best Picture nominees for 2013.
10. THE WICKER MAN: FINAL CUT / JURASSIC PARK 3-D – BEST RE-RELEASES. Obviously, this category doesn't really count, as both of these films were originally released decades ago, but I can't deny that each of them provided one of the most enjoyable experiences I had in a movie theater in 2013. This new cut of the original 1973 classic The Wicker Man adds some nuance and more musical numbers to an already great film. Most crucially, it opens with a scene of Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) praying in church, emphasizing his piousness from the very start, which enriches the events to follow. Jurassic Park, on the other hand, is quite simply my favorite movie (it has the most dinosaurs in it – I rest my case), and seeing it on a big screen again, in 3-D no less, made me fall in love with it all over again.

The Viešnautas (or Trakupis) is a river of  Kėdainiai district municipality, Kaunas County, central Lithuania. It is a tributary of the Liaudė, which flows into the Nevėžis, a tributary of the Neman.

It originates in the Serbentynė Forest, 3 km from Miegėnai village. It runs to the South East and East, on the western edge of the Sosiai forest. It passes through the villages Pamiškės, Antanava, Alksnupiai, Trakupiai.

The name Viešnautas possibly derives from the root *vieš- (original meaning 'to run, to flow') which may be connected to  ('pond'),  ('water, juice'),  ('to flow'),  ('viscous, juicy'),  ('a swamp'). The name Trakupis means 'glade river' (from Lithuanian trakas 'a glade, cutting, undergrowth').

Q: Multi-variable chain rule example Let $p(x,y,z) = q(q(x^2, xy), q(xyz, sin(x^2y^2z^3)))$ where $q$ is a function of 2-variables. Find all partial derivatives.
What I know/tried: Chain rule needs to be applied but the main issue is how the function is written. I have tried to take the derivative w.r.t $x$ but it is a landscape page wide.
Bonus Question: Does $\frac{\partial p}{\partial z}$ exist?

A: Using the comments I think I have figured it out:
Let $a = q(x^2, xy)$ and $b = q(xyz, sin(x^2y^2z^3))$.
Quickly take the partials w.r.t $x$ now...
$\frac{\partial a}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial q}{\partial x^2}(2x) + \frac{\partial q}{\partial xy}(y)$
and
$\frac{\partial b}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial q}{\partial (xyz)}(yz) + \frac{\partial q}{\partial (sin(x^2y^2z^3))}(cos(x^2y^2z^3)(2xy^2z^3))$
So then rewrite and apply chain rule...
$p(x,y,z) = q(a, b)$
$\frac{\partial p}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial q}{\partial a}\frac{\partial a}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial q}{\partial b}\frac{\partial b}{\partial x}$
After this, we substitute the work we did and since $q$ is arbitrary, we leave the ones with $q$.
$\frac{\partial p}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial q}{\partial a}[\frac{\partial q}{\partial x^2}(2x) + \frac{\partial q}{\partial xy}(y)]+ \frac{\partial q}{\partial b}[\frac{\partial q}{\partial (xyz)}(yz) + \frac{\partial q}{\partial (sin(x^2y^2z^3))}(cos(x^2y^2z^3)(2xy^2z^3))]$
Rinse and repeat for y and z.
Bonus question: Yes this derivative does exist.

Georgia Governor Hopes Budget Plan Will Help Restore Lost School Days
By Alyssa Morones — January 24, 2014 2 min read
By guest blogger Alyssa Morones
During his State of the State speech last week, Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal expressed his hope that this year's state budget would allow districts to restore instructional days that many districts had trimmed out during the economic downturn to save money.
Gov. Deal said his budget request would provide almost $8 billion for K-12 education—an increase of $547 million from the previous year.
According to a Business Week article, a large portion of that money is required by law to increase with growing student enrollments. However, it would still be the largest single year increase in K-12 funding in seven years,according to the governor in his speech.
Georgia's school districts have had to deal with tighter budgets during the economic downturn,with some laying off teachers and other school workers and enacting furlough days. Many districts also reduced the number of instructional days in the academic year as a way to save money. To meet the state's class-time requirements, many schools replaced this time with longer school days.
In Georgia, schools are supposed to offer 180 days of instruction. The current average number of school days that districts are operating under is 176 days, according to the Georgia School Boards Association. At least one district, Chattooga County, is operating on as little as 144 days, according to Justin Pauly, the communications director for the Georgia School Boards Association.
"Each district has a different financial situation and climate," Pauly told me in a phone interview. "Cutting the school year and furloughing employees aren't things the districts want to have to do, but some are in positions now where they're having to take drastic measures."
In 2010, Georgia lawmakers also passed a waiver that allowed districts to have larger class sizes through 2013 to cope with the difficult budgetary climate.
In his address last week, Gov. Deal said he planned to partner with local school districts to restore instructional days with the state money in the budget. He also said he wants to eliminate teacher furloughs and increase teacher salaries, among a range of other proposals.
"These funds will provide our local school systems with the resources and flexibility to address the most critical needs of their students and teachers," the governor said.
Deal is not the only governor to discuss learning time in his State of the State address this year. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie proposed extending the school day and year for districts, as a way to improve the state's education system.

Searching for a quick way to launch Desktop applications from the Microsoft Windows 8 Start screen or from anywhere, for that matter? Here's how to do it, making use of the hidden Application Folder.
In previous versions of Windows, if you wanted to run an application but couldn't see its icon everywhere, there was a quick and simple solution: Head to the Application folder, look for the proper subfolder, and find the .exe file that launches the application.
That's all well and good for earlier versions of Windows (Windows XP, Windows 7 and etc). But you will never find the Applications Folder visible in Microsoft Windows 8.
It may not be noticeable, but it is still there, and you can use it for a nifty hack: quickly launching any app—including Microsoft Windows 8 and Desktop applications—from either the Windows 8 Start screen or the desktop.
First, run File Explorer (previously known as Windows Explorer).
On the Desktop and in File Explorer, you will see only its name—Applications.
Doubleclick it, and you will see a list of your applications: Microsoft Windows 8 applications, Desktop applications, and many system applications, such as Control Panel (Like shown in image below).
That takes care of the Application Folder on the Desktop. But the folder does not show up anywhere on the Microsoft Windows 8 Start screen. Not yet, that is. Right-click it and select "Pin to Start." it is right now pinned to the Start screen. To find it, scroll all the way over to the right. Double-click it, and the folder opens, with all your applications only a double-click away.
If you like, move it to a more prominent location on the Start screen by dragging it.

Every night we spend several hours asleep and every morning we awaken to go about our lives. How brain circuits control this sleep-wake cycle remains a mystery. Our sleep is divided into two phases, non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, and REM (or paradoxical) sleep during which most of our dreaming occurs. Important brain circuits have been identified using both experimental and clinical evidence, yet the precise underlying mechanisms, such as the onset, maintenance and termination of sleep and dreaming, is not well understood.
When we fall asleep, the electroencephalogram (EEG) reveals that our brains generate rhythmic oscillations called "slow waves". These waves are important for keeping us asleep and for recovering after a full day of mental and physical activity. Common hypotheses hold that these slow waves are produced in the cerebral cortex, the upper part of the brain just below the surface of the skull. In contrast, wakefulness was thought to arise from the activity of "wake centers" located in the lower part of the brain including the brainstem that directly activates the neocortex, which is the part of the mammalian brain involved in higher-order brain functions such as sensory perception, cognition and generation of motor commands.
In an important new study, neuroscientists at the Department of BioMedical Research (DBMR) at the University of Bern and the Department of Neurology at Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, found that neurons in the thalamus, a central hub of the brain, control sleep as well as wakefulness. The thalamus is connected to almost all other brain areas and supports important brain functions including attention, sensory perception, cognition and consciousness.
The researchers headed by Prof. Dr. Antoine Adamantidis discovered that a small population of these thalamic neurons have a dual control over sleep and wakefulness, by generating sleep slow waves but also waking up from sleep, depending on their electrical activity. The research group used a technique called optogenetics, with which they used light pulses to precisely control the activity of thalamic neurons of mice. When they activated thalamic neurons with regular long-lasting stimuli the animals woke up, but if they activated them in a slow rhythmical manner, the mice had a deeper, more restful sleep.
This is the first time that an area of the brain has been found to have both sleep and wake promoting functions. "Interestingly, we were also able to show that suppression of thalamic neuronal activity impaired the recovery from sleep loss, suggesting that these neurons are essential for a restful sleep after extended period of being awake", says Dr. Thomas Gent, lead author of the study. This shows that the thalamus is a key player in both sleep and wake. The study has now been published in the journal Nature Neuroscience.
The findings of this study are particularly important in a modern world, where the active population sleeps about 20 % less than 50 years ago and suffers from chronic sleep disturbances. People frequently work irregular hours and rarely catch up on lost sleep. Poor sleep is increasingly linked to a multitude of psychiatric diseases and weakens the immune system. "We believe that uncovering the control mechanisms of thalamic neurons during sleep and wake will be key to finding new sleep therapies in an increasingly sleep deprived society", says Prof. Antoine Adamantidis.

Around 100 voters flagged for citizenship checks in Grayson County
By Jerrie Whiteley and William C. Wadsack, Herald Democrat
Jan 30, 2019 at 10:15 AM Jan 30, 2019 at 4:40 PM
A list of approximately 95,000 registered voters flagged by the Texas secretary of state's office for citizenship reviews includes around 100 people in Grayson County, Elections Administrator Deana Patterson said.
In an advisory released Friday afternoon, the secretary of state's office said it was flagging individuals who had provided the Texas Department of Public Safety with some form of documentation — including a work visa or a green card — that showed they were not a citizen when they were obtaining a driver's license or an ID card. Among the individuals flagged, about 58,000 individuals cast a ballot in one or more elections from 1996 to 2018, the secretary of state's office said.
The individuals flagged for citizenship reviews provided the Texas Department of Public Safety with a form of documentation that showed they were not a citizen when they were obtaining a Texas driver's license or ID card. A press release issued by the secretary of state's office said approximately 58,000 of those flagged voted in one or more elections between 1996 and 2018.
"Integrity and efficiency of elections in Texas require accuracy of our state's voter rolls, and my office is committed to using all available tools under the law to maintain an accurate list of registered voters," Texas Secretary of State David Whitley said in a press release. "Our agency has provided extensive training opportunities to county voter registrars so that they can properly perform list maintenance activities in accordance with federal and state law, which affords every registered voter the chance to submit proof of eligibility."
On Tuesday, the Texas Tribune reported officials in Harris, Travis, Fort Bend, Collin and Williamson counties received calls Tuesday from the secretary of state's office indicating some of the voters on the list were incorrectly included because they had submitted voting registration applications at Texas Department of Public Safety offices.
In a statement issued Tuesday to the Texas Tribune, secretary of state spokesman Sam Taylor said Texas officials were providing counties with information as "part of the process of ensuring no eligible voters were impacted by any list maintenance activity."
"This is to ensure that any registered voters who provided proof of citizenship at the time they registered to vote will not be required to provide proof of citizenship as part of the counties' examination," Taylor said.
Patterson said her department will contact each of the approximately 100 voters listed from Grayson County.
"Our office will not be canceling voters until we have corresponded directly with the voter on their current citizenship status," Patterson said.
Patterson said the county doesn't have a system in place to do the review, so she and her staff are currently working on that process.
"Since we have just received all of the information, we will review all thoroughly and determine best practices," she said, adding that it will likely take 45-60 days for that process to be completed.
In its press release, the secretary of state's office said registered voters identified as non-citizens should receive a "Notice of Examination" from the county registrar indicating their registration status is being examined. The registered voter will then be "required to provide proof of citizenship in order to stay registered." Individuals indicating they are not a U.S. citizen — and those who don't respond within 30 days — will have their voter registration canceled by the voter registrar, the press release said.
The secretary of state's office also wrote voting in "an election in which the person knows he or she is not eligible to vote" is a second-degree felony in Texas. The Texas Tribune reported state election officials have pointed out it's possible many of the voters flagged by the secretary of state's office could have become naturalized citizens since obtaining their driver's licenses or ID cards.
Latino civil rights group the League of United Latin American Citizens filed a lawsuit Tuesday against Whitley and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in federal court in San Antonio.
"It's clear that the right-wing elements in Texas government are trying to rig the system to keep power and disenfranchise 95,000 American citizens," LULAC National President Domingo Garcia said in a news item on the group's website. "There is no voter fraud in Texas, it's a lie, repeated time and again to suppress minority voters and we're going to fight hard against it."
While that is the only lawsuit that has been filed, the Texas Tribune said other civil rights groups have warned Texas' recommended procedure for verifying citizenship status could violate federal law, and several are considering additional litigation against the state.

Try these eight easy organization strategies to calm clutter and bring order to kids' rooms.
Get down to your child's eye level to help him or her get organized. Look at your child's space, storage, furniture and possessions from his or her vantage point. The view may surprise you!
Adult furniture and organizing systems don't translate well to children's needs. Sticky dresser drawers are hard for small hands to manage. Folding closet doors pinch fingers and jump their rails when pushed from the bottom. Closet hanging rods are out of reach, while adult hangers don't fit smaller clothing. Traditional toy boxes house a tangled jumble of mixed and scattered toy parts.
To organize a child's room, solutions must fit the child. For younger children, remove closet doors entirely. Lower clothing rods and invest in child-sized hangers. Use floor-level open containers to hold toys, open plastic baskets to store socks and underwear.
Devise a simple daily checklist for maintenance. To organize a child's room, tailor the effort to the child.
Resist the urge to wade into the mess alone, garbage bags flying. Gritted teeth and threats of "You will keep this room clean!" don't touch the root of the problem: teaching children organization skills and maintenance methods.
Instead, look at the organization process as a learning activity, and put the focus on the child. Professional organizer Julie Morgenstern, author of Organizing from the Inside Out , recommends that you view your role as that of organizational consultant to your child.
As his or her guide, survey what's working, what's not, what's important to the child, what's causing the problems, and why the child wants to get organized.
Partnered with your child, you stand a better chance of devising an organization scheme and system that makes sense to him or her. If they're involved in the effort, children are better able to understand the organizational logic and maintain an organized room.
It's a conundrum! Children's rooms are usually small, often shared, and generally lack built-in storage. Yet these rooms are host to out-of-season and outgrown clothing, surplus toys, and even household overflow from other rooms. Kids can't stay organized when the closet is crammed, the drawers are stuffed, and playthings cover each square inch of carpet.
For younger children, a toy library is the answer to over-abundant toys. Using a large lidded plastic storage container, large box or even plastic garbage bag, entrust a selection of toys to the "toy library." Store the container in an out-of-the way place for several months.
Some rainy day, bring out the toy library, swapping the stored toys for other playthings that have lost their savor. The stored toys will have regained their interest and freshness--and they won't have been underfoot in the child's room.
Older kids can utilize higher closet shelves to "store" some of their belongings. Clear plastic shoebox storage containers hold little pieces and identify the contents.
Toy boxes and open shelves are no place to store children's possessions, particularly those involving many tiny parts. To organize toys, think "contain, corral and control."
A bonus: containers help parents control the number of toys out at any one time: "Sure, you can play with the farm set, just as soon as the Matchbox cars go back into their home!"
The premier rule for efficient children's storage? Make it easier to put something away than it is to get it out.
For example, store picture books as a flip-file, standing upright in a plastic dishpan. The child flips through the books, makes his selection, and tosses the book in the front of the dishpan when he's done.
Befitting a child's shorter stature, start organizing from the bottom of the room, and work to the top. Most used toys and belongings should live on lower shelves, in lower drawers, or on the floor. Higher levels are designated for less-frequently-used possessions.
Playing "match the label" can be fun--and turns toy pickup into a game.
Help children stop the cycle by building maintenance routines into the family's day.
"Morning Pickup" straightens the comforter, returns the pillow to the bed, and gets yesterday's clothing to the laundry hamper.
"Evening Pickup" precedes dressing for bed, and involves putting away the day's toys.
Building routines into the family's schedule will keep disorder from becoming overwhelming. Tap them today in your organized home!

I try to get unique row for each category, so i query fo something like:
SELECT id,title,category FROM `entries` group by category

And the result is :
+-----+-----------------------------+----------+
| id  | title                       | category |

The result looks fine, but how can i get row with category = humor and id = 573 instead?
If i query something like:
SELECT id,title,category, max(id) FROM `entries` group by category

I got result like this:

Obviously thats not what i want, any help would be appreciated
And i want to know how exactly mysql collapse row for each group? Did mysql simply take first row for each group?

A: *

*Using JOIN
and a query with GROUP BY to get maximum id for every category
(I guess you do want the row with maximum id for every category, don't you?)
SELECT e.id
     , e.title
     , e.created
     , e.updated
     , e.category
     , e.content
FROM entries e
JOIN
    ( SELECT max(id) AS maxid
      FROM entries
      GROUP BY category
    ) AS cat
ON e.id = cat.maxid

*

*Using IN
and a query to get maximum id for every category
SELECT id
     , title
     , created
     , updated
     , category
     , content
FROM entries
WHERE id IN
    ( SELECT max(id)
      FROM entries
      GROUP BY category
    )

*

*Using ANY
and a correlated subquery
SELECT e.id
     , e.title
     , e.created
     , e.updated
     , e.category
     , e.content
FROM entries e
WHERE e.id >= ANY
    ( SELECT cat.id
      FROM entries cat
      WHERE e.category = cat.category
    )

*

*Using NOT EXISTS
and a correlated subquery
SELECT e.id
     , e.title
     , e.created
     , e.updated
     , e.category
     , e.content
FROM entries e
WHERE NOT EXISTS
    ( SELECT 1
      FROM entries cat
      WHERE cat.id > e.id
        AND e.category = cat.category
    )

A: I think this is what you want.  I haven't tested it though.
select * from entries e
inner join (select max(id), category from entries group by category) ids
on e.id=ids.id

A New Shrimp Simulacrum Hopes To Take Plates By Storm
Your next shrimp pad thai might be shrimp-free
Shrimp CocktailNew Wave Foods Instagram
Americans really like seafood — we consume about 4 billion pounds a year, and there is no way that various fisheries can compete with the demands of our gullets, as well as those of pescatarians worldwide.
While there have been various advances in raising seafood, including the United States' largest inland shrimp farm (which is located in Indiana and produces a quarter of a million shrimp a month), a start-up in San Francisco called New Wave Foods has another approach to the seafood crisis.
The biotech company was founded a year ago by Dominique Barnes, who studied marine conservation at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and Michelle Wolf, a materials scientist, and it plans to release a "popcorn shrimp" product that is entirely man-made within the next eight months, according to a report in The Atlantic.
Barnes told the Atlantic that the process of making the faux crustacean, out of red algae and protein powder, is like "baking a loaf of bread." New Wave won't be the first faux shrimp on the market, but because they are made of the same algae that shrimp regularly eat, these shrimp knock-offs claim to have a much closer nutritional profile that any previously produced.
Given the amount of shrimp, salmon, tuna, and other seafood that we consume per year, coupled with the rampant abuses endured by modern-day slave laborers to supply companies such as Whole Foods and Wal-Mart with shrimp , disrupting the industry with a simple substitute seems to be the most logical way to fix the problem. The company's first product will be breaded, but the creators' next project is to create a naked shrimp that can be used in lieu of shrimp cocktails, and then branch out to other seafood.

Pearl Jam Twenty
By Kyle Smith
September 23, 2011 | 4:00am
It's a shame that, after nearly 40 years of writing about rock, Cameron Crowe is receptive to the clichés of the genre. His documentary "Pearl Jam Twenty" mainly treats us to Eddie Vedder and Co. saluting one another's musicianship, expressing alienation from fame and telling us how cool Neil Young is.
Crowe's doc, which is strictly for fans, does feature some great concert footage, remarkable backstage stuff such as Vedder's dance with Cobain at a 1992 MTV show and interesting visual touches, though most of these are also familiar from MTV.
But we learn zero about the women in these men's lives. When Vedder decides to start traveling apart from the rest of the band, we hear nothing from him on the subject. Nor do we learn why the band chose its name. Even the story of how Vedder grew up with a man he believed to be his father, then discovered who his real father was around the time of his death, is given with almost no detail.
As a general rule, what celebrities want to talk about tends to be uninteresting or trite. It fell to Crowe, who has been friendly with the band from the beginning and featured them in his 1992 film "Singles," to draw them out and make them talk about something other than the terrors of being on the cover of Time magazine. And though Crowe has written many comedies, he is also blind to the absurd side of rock egos. In a better film, Crowe would have played journalist instead of fan boy.

HE'S been an elvin lord, a sheepdog and a rogue agent, now Hugo Weaving is hard at work channelling his inner rock god for Sydney Theatre Company's hot new ticket in town.
Riflemind, a brand new play by incoming artistic co-director Andrew Upton will see Weaving play the front man for a fictitious Aussie band, which reforms nine years after they split.
With Upton's wife Cate Blanchett expected at the October 5 opening night, Oscar winner Philip Seymour Hoffmann directing the play, Weaving's appearance on stage ups the star wattage, reports arts editor Simon Ferguson.
But with just weeks to go, Weaving says he's still closing in on the character of John, admitting he doesn't actually listen to rock in real life.
"I really listen to a lot of West African music," he says.

Carlos Fermín Fitzcarrald, né Carlos Fermín Fitzgerald le  à San Luis de Huari, actuellement San Luis de Ancash, et mort noyé le , est un « baron » péruvien du caoutchouc actif dans la région d'Iquitos.

Biographie

Fils de William Fitzgerald, un marin nord-américain, et d'Esmeralda Lopez, Carlos Fitzgerald étudie au lycée de Lima au Pérou. En 1881, pendant la guerre du Pacifique (1879-1884), alors que le Chili occupe Lima, il est soupçonné d'espionnage au profit du Chili. Soumis à la cour martiale, il est condamné à mort. Cependant son confesseur le reconnaît et se porte garant de sa conduite. Il modifie alors son nom en Fitzcarrald et se rend dans la région de Loreto, où il se cache pendant près de dix ans.
Il meurt noyé dans les rapides du Río Urubamba.

Le film Fitzcarraldo
Le personnage a servi comme source d'inspiration pour le film Fitzcarraldo de Werner Herzog tourné en 1982.

The Ravages of Time: Latest Results from Analyzing Dental Structures in Fossil Humans
2009 Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology Kupczik, Kornelius
Due to their mineralized content, teeth are by far the most commonly preserved remains in the human fossil record. The structure of the basic modules of teeth provides clues about the development and diet of humans and their fossil ancestors as well as their relation to the environment. Scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology make use of this biological source of information to find out in which ways modern humans differ from other primates and when and how the fossil ancestors of modern humans passed the threshold to anatomical and cultural modernity.
The first complete proteome
2009 Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry Mann, Matthias
The genes of an organism are only the blueprint for the real functional entities of the cell - the proteins. So far it was unfortunately not possible to analyse proteins with the same accuracy and depth as the genetic material, the DNA. Scientists at the Max-Planck Institute of Biochemistry have now measured the totality of all proteins of an organism – its proteome – for the first time. Possible applications of this technology include almost all areas of basic biology and may include cancer diagnosis in the future.
Experimental biodiversity research – The "Jena Experiment"
2009 Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry Christiane Roscher, Gerd Gleixner, Ernst-Detlef Schulze
The increasing loss of global biodiversity has generated concern about the consequences for ecosystem functioning. The relationships between plant diversity and ecosystem processes are investigated in the "Jena Experiment", a large biodiversity experiment with grassland species. A central issue of this research is to contribute to a mechanistic understanding of biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships, for which the analyses of species functional characteristics is a substantial prerequisite.
Early embryogenesis of Arabidopsis
2009 Max Planck Institute for Biology Tübingen Jürgens, Gerd
The basic features of the body organisation of adult plants are established during embryogenesis. This process starts from the fertilised egg cell (zygote), which divides into an apical embryonic cell and a basal extra-embryonic cell. This report describes how the embryonic cells generate, in response to the plant hormone auxin, a signal that stimulates the adjacent extra-embryonic cell to initiate the formation of the embryonic root meristem. In addition, attempts to study the origin of the very first difference between apical and basal cell fate are briefly discussed.
Evolutionary mechanisms as a template for protein engineering
2009 Max Planck Institute for Biology Tübingen Höcker, Birte
The diversity of today's universe of proteins has developed via a multitude of small changes. Gene duplication provides the material for mutation and selection, while recombination contributes to the creation of diversity. These mechanisms are the basis for many successful protein engineering experiments. The amount of available sequence and structural data enables general assumptions about important factors in structure-function relationships. These findings are used in rational and computational design to build proteins with desired new properties.


A gay rights magazine has named Pope Francis its person of the year, an honour that has coincided with his 77th birthday. The Advocate, the oldest gay rights magazine in the US , has conferred the title on the pontiff for his encouraging words on gays and lesbians, describing his papacy as a stark change from that of his predecessor Benedict.
New data released Monday from the organization that represents home sellers shows Canada's housing market continues to hit new highs, with the average price increasing by almost 10 per cent in the last 12 months to $391,085. The Canadian Real Estate Association said the strong gain was in part because this time a year ago, sales were down in some of the largest housing markets.
A nine-metre statue in honour of Nelson Mandela has been unveiled on a day of rest dedicated to reconciliation, 24 hours after the solemn burial of the icon credited with ending racial segregation in South Africa. The nine-metre, bronze colossus was officially unwrapped on Monday by President Jacob Zuma on the lawns of the Union Buildings, the seat of government in Pretoria where Mandela was inaugurated as South Africa's first black president in 1994.
Due to Cairo's low rate of precipitation and typically above-freezing winter temperatures, snow is an exceptionally unusual weather phenomenon for the North African city. So unusual, in fact, that the Los Angeles Times, citing local news reports, writes that the last recorded snowfall in Cairo was more than 100 years ago.
Ali Abdelazim, an official at the city's meteorological centre, confirmed to the Agence France-Presse this is the "first time in very many years" that snow has fallen in the Cairo area.

The Canadian dollar lost more ground on Monday, falling to its lowest intraday level in more than two years.
its close of 93.93 cents US on June 30, 2010. Earlier in the day, it traded as low as 93.86 before recovering some ground.
That's the lowest the loonie has traded since October 2011. It is the first time the loonie has closed below 94 cents in more than three years.
After repeatedly trading above parity in recent years, consensus has turned for the loonie, with some watchers saying Canada's dollar could fall a lot more. Goldman Sachs predicted last week the loonie will trade in the high 80-cent level next year.
"The momentum for the Canadian dollar is moving one way for the last three months: lower," Forex Live currency analyst Adam Button told CBC News in an interview.
