Marriage, when it is not working, can be the loneliest place in the world. The covenant of marriage requires us to love, honor, trust and cherish. If we don't do that, then we have no foundation to stand on. Every argument we ever have is a trust issue. When we violate trust, to any degree, then we are telling our partner that our love is not important and they are not important.
You can love someone and not trust them, but when you trust, the love will always follow. In Christian marriage counseling, we work on trust. There is nothing we can do about love because it is an emotion.
The safety of hearing each other and validating each others perceptions does not require agreement. It is a true act of love. It gives us a place to work through the tough issues with empathy and respect. No secrets are needed when both parties are safe to hear each other and validate ("I understand," "I hear what you are saying," "What you're saying is…").
In general terms, men and women have different fundamental needs.
Women fundamentally take the temperature on the marriage based on how much they feel "cherished." Cherished means: "She is my best friend," "I don't know what I would do without her," "I'm so lucky to have her." When women don't feel cherished, they begin to wonder who you are cherishing. They also feel a violation of trust, because you promised to cherish in your vows.
To all husbands: If you want to be nagged until the end of time, don't cherish your partner.
Men take the temperature of the marriage based on feeling respected (heard). If a man feels he is not being heard, then he will shut down or blow up. He feels de-masculated because his voice does not count. He resents his wife and battlegrounds begin to form.
She stops listening and he stops sharing. They begin to resent and hurt each other by breaking down their marriage piece by piece. Their intimacy fades and they begin pushing their personal energy elsewhere (work, kids, activities, friendship). Their conversations become trivial and detached. Their time together becomes boring and uneventful (outside of arguing).
Once they start saying the word "divorce," the other (in their mind) begins to plan on what divorce looks like and shape their emotions and life for the possibility. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
If you are going to be married, you need to be humble and accept your partner for who they are. If you are looking to change them, give up because that is God's job. You may torture your partner by trying to change them, but they will build walls around themselves to protect themselves from you.
"Why?" is a motive-based question and usually invites a defensive reaction. "How?" or "What?" means you are willing to listen and maybe forgive. In marriage, we often see the best and the worst in each other. To be able to heal with forgiveness gives the marriage an ability to trust in telling the truth.
To get to trust, we must be accountable for what we do and have done to selfishly and thoughtlessly hurt each other (consciously or unconsciously). To regain trust requires that apology and then to ask your partner to have faith in you to not do it again.
Faith is the bridge to trust. At first you are not asking for trust, only faith. Once you consistently show that you have learned and changed consistently over time, your partner may choose to trust. Faith is the only way there.
Christianity is for all people, but most of the fundamental values the Bible teaches is how to be married, raise children, gather as friends, and help others, instilling values and becoming a person of love and integrity. The convenant of marriage requires us to be a good Christian. If we mess up the marriage and let it drift into madness, then we are reflecting on our own relationship with God.
Get right with God and reflect on your own life. Practice your faith in your marriage and great things will happen. They say, "Couples who pray together, stay together." That is so true. If you want good things to happen in your life, you have to get outside of yourself and accept your partner for who they are. Pray for them and ask God to make changes. Even better, do it together.
Another core truth is that marriage is not only a covenant, but a legal contract. You don't do the vows, then you don't do the contract. That means everyone and everything that comes in contact with this marriage will have to adapt to two people unwilling to do "hard." Commitment means we do what we think consistently without feeding and doing what we feel.
If we want depression, anxiety, and a deterioration of the relationship, then feed the emotions and forget who you are logically and your integrity. People who are inconsistent and flaky often become depressed and self-destructive by doing what they feel. They wait to do something they know they have to do by waiting for a feeling.
In marriage, to have a depressed partner who is led by their emotions is vastly difficult. The ability to trust then erodes because their actions and commitments don't come together. They become inconsistent. The partner receiving this begins to resent because their partner is making them work harder and it reflects as if that partner is endorsing the depressed partner's way of life. They are being forced to support something they do not want to support due to the marriage.
We have a responsibility to tend to our mental health needs for our partner and our family's sake. That is our responsibility and not our spouse's. No one makes you feel anything, you do that all on your own by how you choose to react to life.
Secrets are also a destructive symptom. We owe each other the truth at all times. I am not saying that we must tell our past up to the commitment for a future. What we owe each other is an open book at all times after you make the commitment to be together. This also means we owe each other truths that may affect our partner or marriage from the past. We do this out of love and for us to share our problems and work on them together.
Finances are another area that cause so much tension. People who live paycheck to paycheck often struggle in a marriage. The idea is as we grow older, we should have an easier time surviving and making our way through life. People who don't save money often have deep insecurities because they are not prepared for emergencies or opportunities. They are stuck with limited choices and life can become stale.
When you have a spender in the relationship who has no boundaries while the couple is on a fixed budget, they are borrowing from the relationship and taking away from security. Finances are our means to survival. People who feast for a day will famine for a month. That month will be long and difficult and full of emotion. Spenders who guilt the other out or keep their spending a secret are destroying the trust and foundation for growth. We must agree on finances and keep the books open at all times in order to maintain a healthy relationship.
Another area of difficulty in marriage is passive-aggressive behavior. Why get married if you hate conflict? To be in a relationship, you must get really good at safe and respectful disagreements. What this means is that we assert what we think and how we feel without a Broadway production.
People who are passive-aggressive have low emotional intelligence. They stuff their feelings until the teapot blows. Then some small incident turns into an emotional outburst that validates the person they are angry at by looking like a lunatic. Marriage requires us to be patient and validating listeners, even if we think our spouse has lost their mind. Once we hear, we have a better chance of being heard.
To stay strong in marriage, you need to get really good at fulfilling your partner's love language, even if it is the weakest part of you. If you are with someone who needs validation, give it. That is money in the bank. If they need time together, receiving gifts, good communication, or kindness, give it! Make it your full time job! That brings peace to your life.
A happy partner makes a happy life. These are unspoken truths that you need to know about each other and accept. Acceptance is peace. To learn a love language ask your partner what you have ever done that made them feel you truly loved them. Bingo! That's their love language.
Support systems are also important for the relationship and individually. Find people who are different, but who love God like you do. Having that one thing in common is universal for all. It gives you a place to work from. You can find this support in gatherings of different types, including marriage, men's, and women's groups. When we do not have strength, we can borrow from others. When our role models are terrible, get new ones.
Many people end up doing what their parents did because that is all they learned. Those parents grew up in another age. Some of what they did was likely unhealthy. Most of what they did likely does not match the day and age we are in. If their marriage had to do with working the vows, then they are good models (even if selective).
People who struggle in marriage need to seek professional counseling. Make sure the therapist matches you in a way that you are both responsive. If they are not a match, move on and find someone who offers you something.

How does AMD impact mental health?
One-third of those with age-related macular degeneration experience depression or anxiety related to their condition. Losing vision, or even the prospect of it, can substantially decrease quality of life, and mental health is one of the key contributors to this.
Much of the intervention around eye diseases focuses on treatment and screening, and mental health can often be overlooked. From diagnosis through to ongoing management it is important to support all aspects of a patient's health – mental health included.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a risk factor for depression and anxiety, and older people with AMD suffer more than other people of the same age with different chronic conditions. As we know, our ageing population means more people are at-risk of AMD and cases are increasing, so you can see that the picture for mental health looks bleak.
A 2008 study by the Farber Institute for Neurosciences of Thomas Jefferson University noted that the severity of depression was directly linked to a person's visual acuity. Rates of depression ranged from 14.3% for those with minimal vision loss to 25% for those with severe vision loss.
When someone begins to experience vision loss they often feel a lack of control over their circumstances. They may worry about losing all of their sight, and how quickly this can happen. People may feel isolated if they need to give up work or driving, which impacts their social lives and mental wellbeing. The Thomas Pocklington Trust has recently published a report into social isolation related to vision loss. The report cites that difficulties with everyday activities and problems with communication can cause social isolation.
Around 1 in 10 people with AMD also experience Charles Bonnet Syndrome – hallucinations due to low vision- which also affect mental health. These hallucinations can be a few minutes to a few hours long and can be upsetting and disorientating. As well as causing distress, they can lead to feelings of anxiety about when the next episode will occur.
What's important when diagnosing AMD, or informing a patient that they may be at risk, is communication and access to support. Many feelings of hopelessness in patients stem from lack of information leading people to worry about their future – whether that's about treatment, quality of life or their prognosis. Patients need to know where to turn when they are concerned about their eye health.
It is important to empower patients by providing them with the right information and access to the right support. They may lose their vision, but this can be made less distressing if they understand how they can access care, adapt their home or deal with treatment.
Refer patients for free support. The Macular Society runs a free advice line for patients. If you're in the USA, the American Macular Degeneration Foundation offers a variety of free guides, including a journal to monitor vision.
Encourage regular screening. Those with AMD or those at high risk of it should be screened regularly to monitor their condition. Regular screening can reduce feelings of isolation and reassure a patient that they are being taken care of. During screening a patient also has a chance to discuss any worries they may have, including any feelings of depression or anxiety.
Understand the care pathways. For an optometrist or an ophthalmologist, caring for a patient with AMD doesn't only involve screening and treatment. If someone has low vision then they will require social care from everything to sourcing low vision aids to arranging carers to ensure they can remain independent. Educate your team about the options available in your area and encourage them to pass that information on to patients.
For more information on AMD and mental health, read our related blog on stress. We've also recently covered how glaucoma affects mental health. For a full picture of the importance of MPOD screening in detecting AMD risk early, download our free whitepaper – age-related macular degeneration and the case for early screening.

COE COLLECTION
2022 Hands-On Curatorial Program: < NO_RECORDS >
Published on: Oct 27, 2021|Categories: Hands-On Curatorial Program
Hands-On Returns!
It is a wonderful feeling to be able to bring a new group of Hands-On Curators back into the Coe building. After shifting from in-person meetings to a fully virtual format way back in 2020, we are thrilled to introduce a new crew of high school students to the Coe's collection and the process of curating an exhibition from beginning to end.
This year the Coe is joined by students from across Santa Fe. Cruz Davis-Martinez and Skyler Hraber are both seniors at New Mexico School for the Arts, Tyler Gonzales is a senior at Academy for Technology and the Classics, and Himaja Sunkara is a sophomore at Santa Fe High. This group of engaged, creative, and inspiring students has already begun to immerse themselves in the collection. They have found inspiration in the many miniatures from across the world, how and why different cultures depict animals, the visual power of Northwest Coast form-line painting and drawing, and points of contact between popular culture – movies, music, toys—and pieces from different places and times.
After spending a few sessions getting to know each other and exploring shelf by shelf, the curators have begun to brainstorm through words and imagery in a collaborative format. They are working through their individual ideas, explaining, listening, and researching, on their way to an exhibition narrative. Stay tuned for more as they progress.
Although COVID has caused this program to pivot for two years to virtual or a hybrid of virtual and in-person, the 2022 Hands-On Curatorial Program provides an opportunity for high school students to return to work hands-on with the Coe collection of over 2,500 works of Indigenous art from around the world. Through museum visits and weekly sessions over eight months, the curators learn how to create their own exhibition by selecting and researching objects, creating the exhibition title, writing a catalog, executing the press release, designing and installing the exhibition, and working with the public. Within this program, young curators gain a foundation of skills that they can take anywhere throughout their lives. The participants build their own exhibition from the ground up!
The Ralph T. Coe Center for the Arts' Hands-On Curatorial Program just ended its eighth year of working with high school students from across Santa Fe. This year's curators attend New Mexico School for the Arts, Academy for Technology and Classics, and Santa Fe High and are Cruz Davis-Martinez, Tyler Gonzales, Skyler Hraber, and Himaja Sunkara.
Unknowing can be intriguing and fascinating, or it can be frustrating and unsettling. Immense amounts of information have been within our reach for most of our lives. And yet, how does it feel to realize that there is still information beyond our knowledge and many unknown stories beyond what is visible to us? We are taught from early childhood the necessity of understanding and to fear the unknown.
The Coe collection made us revisit this mentality. While we saw plenty of examples of objects that existed for an apparent purpose, there were a few pieces that did not. We returned to the curious mindset of our childhood, asking why it was that these pieces did not have a written history. Were the objects' reasons for existing entirely erased, and if so, why? Why was it that several pieces did not have complete records in the Coe's database and others did? And what does it do to an object to lose its context?
Although the Coe pieces have a complete history from before they came into the collection, as curators and artists we encountered a distinct lack of information and even understanding about these pieces. It felt like stumbling around with the lights off. We found this experience of not being able to find the answers rare and wished to capture it in our own artmaking. We wanted to create an exhibition including our own original artworks, that explores the stages of information-gathering throughout the curatorial process. For each of us, the Coe's collection prompted confusion, intrigue, and inspiration for our own art pieces. We made artworks before, during, and after our research into the Coe's collection in hopes of capturing the experience of wrestling with our lack of knowledge, hoping that we can finally coexist with the unknown, like a nightlight in a dark room.
The Ralph T. Coe Center for the Arts Hands-On Curatorial program student exhibition <NO_RECORDS>, opened to the public on May 13th, 2022, and goes through July 9th, 2022.
Below, you will find the student-curated brochure for your viewing pleasure.
This project is supported in part by New Mexico Arts, a division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, and by the National Endowment for the Arts.

Have an Extra Special Personalised Christmas with Next!
Christmas is only three weeks away (eeeeek! How did that happen?!!) and after a tough couple of months, I'm determined to make this festive season absolutely brilliant for the girls - as well as for myself.
I've been doing quite a lot of shopping at Next this year - they are SO good for clothes and homewares and I LOVE their next day delivery service (it's so perfect for impatient shoppers like me that hate waiting for their purchases to arrive!). With Christmas around the corner I turned to them for party outfits and stocking fillers and was really excited to see their new personalised santa sacks; even more so when I was asked if I'd like a couple for Daisy and Evie!
They're made from super soft shenille that looks like rustic hessian and have a pretty red ribbon to keep all the presents safe inside them and they're really rather roomy at 82cm x 71cm. I can't wait to fill them full of lots of treats for the girls; having an extra layer of present opening in the form of a stocking or sack seems to make Christmas morning all the more exciting! It's like pass the parcel but the music only stops on you.... YAY! They are available online here and cost just £16 each - and you can choose both the recipient's name and who it's from (or just have 'Santa'). Delivery takes up to twelve days.
Other presents I've chosen for them from Next (so far!) include these cotton Frozen duvet bedsets, these AMAZING cat hats and gloves (I want some for myself!) and a pair of wellies for each of the girls (I went for these and these).
DISCLAIMER: Next sent the girls a personalised Santa sack each, free of charge, in exchange for this honest post.


As you enter this year's Christmas season, consider incorporating new traditions and time for personal reflection into your celebration. Here are 10 fresh ideas just in time for the holidays.
Find a beautiful blank journal. Then write the year's blessings in it. This can be a private exercise or a family tradition. If you choose to make it a family activity, have each member write briefly and allow time to read past entries. Or, you may prefer a year-end journal to be completed after the holidays. Either way, it's sure to become a treasured keepsake.
I never tire of seeing homes gleaming with colorful Christmas lights. The usual line of cars tells me I'm not the only one who enjoys the splendor! This year when you tour a glittery neighborhood, choose one decorated house and one undecorated house, say a prayer for the people who live there, and continue to pray for them every day thereafter until Christmas.
Bring a little Christmas cheer to a "twin family" in need by providing them with a few presents. A twin family is one with the same makeup as yours (single; married with no children; single mother with two children, etc.). Call your church or local social services for contacts and shopping guidance.
Instead of exchanging gifts with your girlfriends or coworkers, arrange a party to package gift baskets for a local women's shelter or pregnancy care center. First contact the director about specific needs and quantities. Then create a list of items and ask friends to sign up for what they'll provide. When you gather, gift-wrap cardboard boxes or dress up inexpensive wicker baskets, then fill them with your donations. Relax over tea and holiday treats before making your delivery.
Often the presents we shop so intently for are quickly forgotten. For a more memorable gift, why not try doing something? Think about what you might do for your spouse, friend, or parent that would have a longer-lasting, more positive impact on your relationship. Would your spouse appreciate a date night? Do your parents long for more quality time with you? Don't be afraid to ask – it doesn't have to be a surprise.
Offer Jesus a symbolic gift in honor of His birthday. Give Him an area of your life you desire to change – an emotion, an activity, or a relationship – and physically wrap a box to represent it. Do this individually or as a family. Create a family present to display every year by painting an unfinished wooden box and tying it with a silk ribbon.
Set aside an annual night to relish simple, old-fashioned joys. Pop some corn and snuggle with a book of sentimental short stories of Christmases past. If you have kids, plan a night of games and pizzas. Saunter through the snow-covered woods, leaving a trail of snow angels behind. Or, if you live in a warmer climate, grab a blanket, head outside, and search for the star in the East. Whatever you do, take reprieve from worries and reflect on Christ's humble birth.
Set a place of honor for Jesus at your Christmas dinner table as a reminder of His presence.
The end of the year is a wonderful opportunity to engage in earnest reflection. Take tine to forgive anyone who's wronged you during the year and for whom you still harbor resentment or bitterness. Begin the new year with a refreshed heart!

Q: Nginx and rails maintenance pages, getting Squid 2.7 to not cache them, or alternatives to squid I'm running Squid 2.7 on a load balancer and it seems to want to happily cache anything that comes its way, including (and especially annoyingly)maintenance pages.
The maintenance pages are served through a nginx error page hook, so I don't seem to have that much control over their cache headers, I'd like to just tell squid not to cache non 200 pages. Is there a way to do that without upgrading squid? (I know newer squid has a way to match the http status on acl rules)
The page itself already has meta tags for no cache, but that doesn't seem to help squid.
Here is the bit of config from nginx that sends the error page:
location / {
  passenger_enabled on;
  passenger_friendly_error_pages off;

  recursive_error_pages on;

  if (-f $document_root/system/maintenance.html) {
    return 503;
  }

  error_page 503 @503;
}

location @503 {
  if (-f $request_filename) {
    return 200;
    break;
  }
  error_page 405 = /system/maintenance.html;
  rewrite ^(.*)$ /system/maintenance.html break;
}

Maybe there is a better way to do this on nginx end, or maybe some way to add extra stuff to these error pages ot make them behave better with squid.
The general idea is that if document_root/system/maintenance.html exists, the system is in maintenance mode and that page should be rendered for all requests (except static files so that the page can reference stylesheets or images or whatnot)
As for the squid end, I don't really have anything specific to show for it, its a pretty cookie cutter setup for a caching reverse proxy.

On a flip note, maybe there is a better alternative to using squid, I'm open to that suggestion too.

A: I know this isn't what you are looking for however something like this is much nicer on the system, this serves files then the maintenance page if it is in place then falls back to the backed server
try_files $uri $uri.html /maintenance.html @unicorn_story;

This does work well enough for us via squid but I would test it.
You could also clear squid after coming out of maintainance.

China Communications to bid for $1.4bn Brazilian sea bridge
China Communications Construction Company (CCCC) is preparing to bid on a $1.4bn bridge project in Brazil, according to reports in the local press.
Reports say the company plans to submit a joint bid with the China Railway Construction Corporation, if the two sides can agree terms.
The bridge would be located in the state of Bahia in the east of the country, and would connect the mainland with the city of Vera Cruz on the island of Itaparica, according to Brazilian business paper Valor Econômico.
Nasa's satellite image of the bay
The 12.4km bridge, which has been under discussion since the 1960s, would be developed as a public-private partnership, with the winner receiving $320m from the state of Bahia, and charging a toll for 35 years. It would help economic development on the island, and would avoid the need to use a ferry or make a four-hour drive to circumvent the bay separating the cities.
The project is still in the public consultation phase and a call for bids has not been issued.
CCCC has already established itself in Brazil, buying contractor Concremat at the end of 2016 and undertaking the construction of a port in in São Luís in the northern state of Maranhão.
Reuters reports that CCCC is also considering a bid on the East-West Railroad Integration (Fiol) and the Ferrograo railway projects, which the federal government plans to tender as PPP contracts.
Fiol would transport grains and minerals from Brazil's interior to the port of Ilheus in Bahia, and Ferrograo would follow the course of key grain highway BR-163 and allow for shipments to ports in the north.

Ozzy Osbourne hospitalized over flu complications, Report
Ozzy Osbourne, 70, was hospitalised on Monday as his wife Sharon, 66, revealed he's been suffering complications from the flu.
Taking to her Twitter account on Wednesday, the former X Factor judge told fans the rocker's admission to the facility was advised by doctors to help speed up the recovery process.
The Talk panelist penned: 'As some of you may have heard, Ozzy was admitted to hospital following some complications from the flu.'
'His doctors feel this is the best way to get him on a quicker road to recovery. Thanks to everyone for their concern and love', she added.
READ Rita Ora's lip sync fail (Video)
According to The Blast, the Black Sabbath star checked into Los Angeles' Keck Hospital earlier this week, with his wife and son Jack, 33, arriving to the institution with security.
Earlier this month, the singer cancelled the European leg of his tour after falling ill with the flu and bronchitis which doctors feared may develop into pneumonia.
The Crazy Train singer initially announced that he would have to miss the first four dates of the 79-date tour just days ago after falling ill.
However after returning to his doctor for a second time, he was told he had a severe upper-respiratory infection, according to a statement obtained by People.

The father-of-six is in the midst of his No More Tour 2 tour, after completing the first No More Tours Tour in 1992, when he decided he wanted to spend more time with his family – but then shortly changed his mind.
The publication reported that because of Ozzy's hectic schedule and the cold winter weather, doctors fear that it could develop into pneumonia.
In the statement he said: 'I'm completely devastated for having to postpone the European leg of my tour. It just seems that since October everything I touch has turned to s**t.'
READ Jarvis Cocker quits BBC radio show
Referencing the staph infection he suffered last year, Ozzy said that was the first of his troubles before developing the flu and bronchitis.
He went on to apologise to his fans as well as his band and crew, as well as Judas Priest who he was set to perform with.
However he insisted that the tour was currently being rescheduled to start in September, no doubt once he was feeling better.
The Loner singer was due to perform in Mountain View, California in October, but instead spent the evening recovering at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles after undergoing hand surgery.

I'm in a situation where a Node app and a PHP app are sharing a database. The PHP app handles the user registration and hashes the password using password_hash().
The password_hash() function uses the bcrypt algorithm if you specify PASSWORD_DEFAULT or PASSWORD_BCRYPT.
With Node, the bcrypt NPM module can be used to compare the hash and the plain password, with a little gotcha.
PHP uses $2y$ while this NPM module uses $2a$. They are still compatible though, so we can just replace this part of the hash.
The reverse operation can of course be done using the same technique.

Other Y&R Mother: Should Victoria Newman Feel Threatened By Chelsea?
Is Johnny drifting away?
By Alina Adams 4 weeks ago
Chelsea Lawson assured Victoria Newman and Billy Abbott that she will not try to push her way into Johnny Abbott's life on The Young and the Restless. Except for forcing them to tell the boy she was his biological mother.
The Young and the Restless Polling
And then following him around. And then giving him an inappropriate gift. And then manipulating him into spending time with half-brother Connor Newman (Judah Mackey). And feeling sorry for her. Oh, and here's another present, too. Should Victoria (Amelia Heinle) be worried?
Sign up to get our latest news and spoilers newsletters!
Y&R: Uncertain
It's hard to tell so far, 7% are still trying to figure out what Chelsea's (Melissa Claire Egan) game plan is. She's a con artist and a master manipulator. So she's either using Johnny (Paxton Mishkind) to get to Billy (Jason Thompson), or using Billy to get to Johnny. Victoria should definitely be on alert.
The Young and the Restless: Blood Ties
Of course, Victoria should worry, 21% are raising the alarm. Despite initially saying he wasn't interested, Johnny is obviously slipping deeper under Chelsea's spell. And she knows how to weave one. Look how she's got Connor obsessed with her well-being to the point where the boy needed therapy with Sharon Rosales (Sharon Case) to overcome his fear of letting Chelsea out of his sight.
Chelsea has Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) feeling guilty for driving her to a place where she tried to frame him for murder, and Billy apologizing for her raping him. This woman is a pro. Johnny is a kid. Victoria needs to protect her son!
Victoria will always be Johnny's mother, 72% reassure, Chelsea can never change that. It's obvious that Johnny is curious about Chelsea, but as a cool aunt, at best. He's given no indication that he thinks of her as a replacement for Victoria. The fact that he sent the woman he calls Mom his Christmas list is proof of that!

OTTAWA -- Canadian retail sales rose more than expected in March, driven by increased purchases at new and used cars dealers, as well as electronics and appliance stores, data from Statistics Canada showed on Friday.
Sales were up 0.7 percent, exceeding economists' forecasts for a gain of 0.4 percent, while February's sales were revised to show a decline of 0.4 percent, less than the initially reported 0.6 percent decrease.
Sales rose in six out of 11 sectors in March, accounting for 53 percent of total retail trade. Stripping out the effect of price changes, volumes climbed 1.2 percent.
The motor vehicle and parts sector led the way with a 3.2 percent increase, driven by a 3.8 percent gain in sales of new cars. Excluding autos, retail sales were down 0.2 percent.
Light-vehicle sales in Canada have remained strong so far in 2017. Through April, deliveries gained 2.5 percent to 618,721 vehicles, according to DesRosiers Automotive. The gain was driven by a 6.1 percent improvement in truck sales, which offset a 4.3 percent decline in car deliveries.
Sales at electronics and appliance stores jumped 3.1 percent. Stores that are usually linked to home purchases and renovations also continued to see strength, with higher sales at building material and garden equipment stores, as well as furniture stores.

The Patriot Post® · Another Predictable Hate Crime Hoax
By Douglas Andrews · April 13, 2021
https://patriotpost.us/articles/79103-another-predictable-hate-crime-hoax-2021-04-13
Last week, we learned that a vile racist was on the loose at tiny Albion College in Jackson, Michigan. How do we know? Well, we saw the images of racist graffiti with our own eyes. We saw the N-word, multiple references to the Klan, and a Star of David shot through with "666" right there in the stairwell of an Albion dorm.
So it must've been the work of a racist, right? Well, yes, but not the kind of white male racist we've been conditioned to think about whenever this hardy perennial rears its ugly head. No, as it turns out, this racist is a 21-year-old black male — sort of a low-budget version of Jussie Smollett, but without the elaborate staging and laughable denials of culpability, and with the added indecency of Jew hatred thrown in for bad measure.
As The Daily Wire's Ashe Schow reports, "On April 6, after reviewing campus security footage, a 21-year-old black male student was brought in for questioning by the Albion Department of Public Safety. The student reportedly admitted to writing most of the graffiti, with the surveillance footage supporting his statements. Police Chief Scott Kipp told MLive that the student was released after questioning and that after the department has completed its investigation, the Calhoun County Prosecutor's Office will determine if any charges should be filed related to the incident. Charges are unlikely in such a case, as fears of being called racist abound even when a student has committed a hate crime hoax."
Therein lies one of the problems. When we refuse to prosecute fake hate crimes as hate crimes, we only encourage more of them. Look at the Smollett case, for example. If ever a high-profile criminal case demanded swift and sure justice, this was it. Instead, we're more than two years removed from that preposterous fake hate crime, and he still hasn't been brought to justice.
The other problem? We presume a guilty white culprit in all these cases, when our criminal justice system demands the presumption of innocence. How many times are we going to allow ourselves — good, decent Americans of every race, ethnicity, and political persuasion — to be punked by these dimwitted racial arsonists?
Henceforth, the burden of proof should be on the accusers. And if no eyewitnesses come forward, and no videotape evidence can be produced, our collective response to cancerous stories such as these should be, Oh yeah? Prove it. Prove it wasn't just another in the long and well-documented line of fake hate crimes.
At $50,590, annual tuition at Albion College seems like some kind of bad joke. But it isn't. The question is, why do certain parents keep forking over that kind of loot to these craven and gullible institutions? For the "white privilege" of allowing their children to be beaten down by woke supremacists and shamed into racial submission? No thanks.
As Schow continues, "This incident is merely the latest in a long list of examples where claims of racism — or sexism — on campus have turned out to be hoaxes. In November 2020, The Daily Wire reported that a black teenager who claimed to have found racist messages on his SUV had written the messages himself. Earlier that year, another student who claimed to have found racist messages on their vehicle was also determined to be the culprit. It's not just students who commit the hoaxes. An Oregon politician claimed he received a racist letter, but it was determined he wrote the letter to himself."
If a single worthwhile lesson can be taken away from this racial hoax and all others like it, let it be a reaffirmation of the law of supply and demand: If instances of real racism weren't in such short supply, these twisted individuals would have no need to make stuff up.

As we begin this section we note that the type of data we will be working with has changed. Perhaps unnoticed, all the data we have been using is for a single variable. It may be from two samples, but it is still a univariate variable. The type of data described in the examples above and for any model of cause and effect is bivariate data — "bi" for two variables. In reality, statisticians use multivariate data, meaning many variables.
For our work we can classify data into three broad categories, time series data, cross-section data, and panel data. We met the first two very early on. Time series data measures a single unit of observation; say a person, or a company or a country, as time passes. What are measured will be at least two characteristics, say the person's income, the quantity of a particular good they buy and the price they paid. This would be three pieces of information in one time period, say 1985. If we followed that person across time we would have those same pieces of information for 1985,1986, 1987, etc. This would constitute a times series data set. If we did this for 10 years we would have 30 pieces of information concerning this person's consumption habits of this good for the past decade and we would know their income and the price they paid.
A second type of data set is for cross-section data. Here the variation is not across time for a single unit of observation, but across units of observation during one point in time. For a particular period of time we would gather the price paid, amount purchased, and income of many individual people.
A third type of data set is panel data. Here a panel of units of observation is followed across time. If we take our example from above we might follow 500 people, the unit of observation, through time, ten years, and observe their income, price paid and quantity of the good purchased. If we had 500 people and data for ten years for price, income and quantity purchased we would have 15,000 pieces of information. These types of data sets are very expensive to construct and maintain. They do, however, provide a tremendous amount of information that can be used to answer very important questions. As an example, what is the effect on the labor force participation rate of women as their family of origin, mother and father, age? Or are there differential effects on health outcomes depending upon the age at which a person started smoking? Only panel data can give answers to these and related questions because we must follow multiple people across time. The work we do here however will not be fully appropriate for data sets such as these.
Beginning with a set of data with two independent variables we ask the question: are these related? One way to visually answer this question is to create a scatter plot of the data. We could not do that before when we were doing descriptive statistics because those data were univariate. Now we have bivariate data so we can plot in two dimensions. Three dimensions are possible on a flat piece of paper, but become very hard to fully conceptualize. Of course, more than three dimensions cannot be graphed although the relationships can be measured mathematically.
To provide mathematical precision to the measurement of what we see we use the correlation coefficient. The correlation tells us something about the co-movement of two variables, but nothing about why this movement occurred. Formally, correlation analysis assumes that both variables being analyzed are independent variables. This means that neither one causes the movement in the other. Further, it means that neither variable is dependent on the other, or for that matter, on any other variable. Even with these limitations, correlation analysis can yield some interesting results.
The correlation coefficient, ρ (pronounced rho), is the mathematical statistic for a population that provides us with a measurement of the strength of a linear relationship between the two variables. For a sample of data, the statistic, r, developed by Karl Pearson in the early 1900s, is an estimate of the population correlation and is defined mathematically as:
where sx1 and sx2 are the standard deviations of the two independent variables X1 and X2, and are the sample means of the two variables, and X1i and X2i are the individual observations of X1 and X2. The correlation coefficient r ranges in value from -1 to 1. The second equivalent formula is often used because it may be computationally easier. As scary as these formulas look they are really just the ratio of the covariance between the two variables and the product of their two standard deviations. That is to say, it is a measure of relative variances.
In practice all correlation and regression analysis will be provided through computer software designed for these purposes. Anything more than perhaps one-half a dozen observations creates immense computational problems. It was because of this fact that correlation, and even more so, regression, were not widely used research tools until after the advent of "computing machines". Now the computing power required to analyze data using regression packages is deemed almost trivial by comparison to just a decade ago.
To visualize any linear relationship that may exist review the plot of a scatter diagrams of the standardized data. (Figure) presents several scatter diagrams and the calculated value of r. In panels (a) and (b) notice that the data generally trend together, (a) upward and (b) downward. Panel (a) is an example of a positive correlation and panel (b) is an example of a negative correlation, or relationship. The sign of the correlation coefficient tells us if the relationship is a positive or negative (inverse) one. If all the values of X1 and X2 are on a straight line the correlation coefficient will be either 1 or -1 depending on whether the line has a positive or negative slope and the closer to one or negative one the stronger the relationship between the two variables. BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE CORRELATION COEFFICIENT DOES NOT TELL US THE SLOPE.
Remember, all the correlation coefficient tells us is whether or not the data are linearly related. In panel (d) the variables obviously have some type of very specific relationship to each other, but the correlation coefficient is zero, indicating no linear relationship exists.
If you suspect a linear relationship between X1 and X2 then r can measure how strong the linear relationship is.
What the VALUE of r tells us:
The value of r is always between –1 and +1: –1 ≤ r ≤ 1.
The size of the correlation r indicates the strength of the linear relationship between X1 and X2. Values of r close to –1 or to +1 indicate a stronger linear relationship between X1 and X2.
If r = 0 there is absolutely no linear relationship between X1 and X2(no linear correlation).
If r = 1, there is perfect positive correlation. If r = –1, there is perfect negative correlation. In both these cases, all of the original data points lie on a straight line: ANY straight line no matter what the slope. Of course, in the real world, this will not generally happen.
What the SIGN of r tells us
A positive value of r means that when X1 increases, X2 tends to increase and when X1 decreases, X2 tends to decrease (positive correlation).
A negative value of r means that when X1 increases, X2 tends to decrease and when X1 decreases, X2 tends to increase (negative correlation).
Strong correlation does not suggest that X1 causes X2 or X2 causes X1. We say "correlation does not imply causation."
In order to have a correlation coefficient between traits A and B, it is necessary to have:
one group of subjects, some of whom possess characteristics of trait A, the remainder possessing those of trait B
measures of trait A on one group of subjects and of trait B on another group
two groups of subjects, one which could be classified as A or not A, the other as B or not B
Define the Correlation Coefficient and give a unique example of its use.
A measure of the degree to which variation of one variable is related to variation in one or more other variables. The most commonly used correlation coefficient indicates the degree to which variation in one variable is described by a straight line relation with another variable.
Suppose that sample information is available on family income and Years of schooling of the head of the household. A correlation coefficient = 0 would indicate no linear association at all between these two variables. A correlation of 1 would indicate perfect linear association (where all variation in family income could be associated with schooling and vice versa).
If the correlation between age of an auto and money spent for repairs is +.90
81% of the variation in the money spent for repairs is explained by the age of the auto
81% of money spent for repairs is unexplained by the age of the auto
90% of the money spent for repairs is explained by the age of the auto
a. 81% of the variation in the money spent for repairs is explained by the age of the auto
Suppose that college grade-point average and verbal portion of an IQ test had a correlation of .40. What percentage of the variance do these two have in common?
True or false? If false, explain why: The coefficient of determination can have values between -1 and +1.
The coefficient of determination is r··2 with 0 ≤ r··2 ≤ 1, since -1 ≤ r ≤ 1.
True or False: Whenever r is calculated on the basis of a sample, the value which we obtain for r is only an estimate of the true correlation coefficient which we would obtain if we calculated it for the entire population.
Under a "scatter diagram" there is a notation that the coefficient of correlation is .10. What does this mean?
plus and minus 10% from the means includes about 68% of the cases
one-tenth of the variance of one variable is shared with the other variable
one-tenth of one variable is caused by the other variable
on a scale from -1 to +1, the degree of linear relationship between the two variables is +.10
d. on a scale from -1 to +1, the degree of linear relationship between the two variables is +.10
The correlation coefficient for X and Y is known to be zero. We then can conclude that:
X and Y have standard distributions
the variances of X and Y are equal
there exists no relationship between X and Y
there exists no linear relationship between X and Y
d. there exists no linear relationship between X and Y
What would you guess the value of the correlation coefficient to be for the pair of variables: "number of man-hours worked" and "number of units of work completed"?
Approximately 0.9
Approximately -0.4
In a given group, the correlation between height measured in feet and weight measured in pounds is +.68. Which of the following would alter the value of r?
height is expressed centimeters.
weight is expressed in Kilograms.
both of the above will affect r.
neither of the above changes will affect r.
d. neither of the above changes will affect r.
Bivariate
two variables are present in the model where one is the "cause" or independent variable and the other is the "effect" of dependent variable.
a system or model where more than one independent variable is being used to predict an outcome. There can only ever be one dependent variable, but there is no limit to the number of independent variables.
– Correlation Coefficient
A number between −1 and 1 that represents the strength and direction of the relationship between "X" and "Y." The value for "r" will equal 1 or −1 only if all the plotted points form a perfectly straight line.
a model that takes data and regresses it into a straight line equation.

Q: vba in excel 2003 I'm trying to understand this code, and I still don't know why it starts with 2 on the cell A1, shouldn't it start with 1?
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim i, j As Integer
For i = 1 To 10
For j = 1 To 5
Cells(i, j).Value = i + j
Next j
Next i
End Sub

because on my other example I have this and it starts with 1 in A1:
  Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
  Dim i As Integer
  For i = 1 To 10
  Cells(i, 1).Value = i
  Next
  End Sub

Thanks :-) will greatly appreciate your help

A: Both the loops in the first example starts with 1, so setting the value to i+j = 2.
In the second example it only sets it to i, which starts at 1.

A: At the first example you have two for-loops, one nested in another. You basically form a 2D array, with the value of each cell being the sum of the row and column index.
At the second example you have a 1D array.
