January 4, 1839 – Cherokee County Established
by Editor | Jan 4, 2022 | On this Day | 0 comments
Just a few short months after the last forced Cherokee removal to Oklahoma, North Carolina established its westernmost county—Cherokee—on this day in 1839. Formed from lands "lately acquired" from the Cherokee, the new county comprised the western portion of Macon County, itself created the previous year.
After establishing county boundaries, the state legislature soon decreed that the county's courthouse would operate temporarily in the buildings of Fort Butler, a U.S army fort critical to the Cherokee removal process. The fort and first court were located within the four hundred acres reserved for the town of "Murphey," where a trading post and post office were already operating. As numerous white settlers moved to the new county, cutting trees, constructing homes, and trading land, a few hundred Cherokees remained in the area. One elderly man named Hog Bite (reportedly 97-years-old) openly defied the government and was allowed to stay, living for at least another decade. Around 400 other Cherokees—some of mixed lineage—continued to reside or resist in this westernmost section, particularly around the Hiwassee, Valley, and Cheoah river valleys.
During this period of internal improvements and agricultural growth in the new western counties, the legislature quickly passed several acts to develop this area. The state granted a charter to the Hiwassee Turnpike Company, tasked with building a road from Murphy into Tennessee, while a newly-improved state road also connected Franklin in Macon County to Georgia through Murphy, utilizing funds from the sale of Cherokee lands. In 1841, NC also passed an act to prevent the cutting of trees along the river valleys in Cherokee County. Within just two years, the population of the country grew to nearly 3,500, including at least 200 enslaved people held among 42 families. Eventually parts of Cherokee were split to form Clay and Graham counties in the following decades.

HCA Capital News: Richmond VA: Chippenham Hospital Earns Re-Designation as a Level II Trauma Center
HCA Capital News: Richmond VA: ...
Chippenham Hospital March 27, 2018
Zero deficiencies found by Virginia Department of Health.
Richmond, VA. (March 27, 2018) – HCA Virginia's Chippenham Hospital has achieved full re-designation as a Level II trauma center by the State Health Commissioner from the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Health.
At a recent site visit by the Virginia Department of Health, the hospital earned the highest score achievable with no critical deficiencies.
Chippenham first received designation as a Level II trauma center in 2014, making it the first hospital in central Virginia to achieve Level II status.
"Since we earned this designation from the state of Virginia several years ago, we are proud to have consistently provided exceptional quality care to all patients in need of timely emergency medical services," said Frank Yang, M.D. trauma medical director at Chippenham Hospital. "Our expert trauma team remains dedicated to improving outcomes and delivering the life-saving care that our community deserves."
As a Level II trauma center, the facility is able to initiate definitive care for all patients by providing 24/7 on-site general trauma surgeons required to be at bedside within 15 minutes. In addition, trauma experts with a variety of surgical specialties are on call 24/7 and required to be at bedside within 30 minutes.
"I appreciate the hard work and dedication from the entire team in delivering the highest quality care to the patients who enter our trauma center," said Greg Lowe, chief executive officer of Chippenham Hospital. "Having no critical or non-critical deficiencies is a testament to the team's attention to detail and focus on evidence based processes and procedures."
In addition to this re-designation, Chippenham Hospital received verification in October 2017 as a Level II trauma center by the American College of Surgeons for a period of three years. The achievement recognizes the trauma center's dedication to providing optimal care for injured patients.
Chippenham Hospital plays a critical role to emergency care as central Virginia's busiest adult and pediatric ER, staffed 24/7 by pediatric-trained emergency nurse and physician specialists.
Metro Richmond's other trauma centers include Johnston-Willis and Henrico Doctors' Hospitals, which are Level III and Level II trauma centers, respectively. In addition, the VCU Medical Center, holds a Level I trauma status. In Virginia, the trauma designation process is voluntary and intended to identify the various levels of capability available at participating hospitals. There are three levels in the state. These include:
Level I - a comprehensive regional source that is capable of providing total care for every aspect of injury from prevention to rehabilitation.
Level II – facilities that are able to initiate definitive care for all injured patients.
Level III – centers that have demonstrated an ability to provide prompt assessment, resuscitation, surgery, intensive care and stabilization of injured patients and emergency operations.

9/11 on film: Ever-growing photo display
By MELISSA SECKORA
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 (UPI) -- There are many ways to remember the terrorist attacks on America on that warm autumn morning last year. We remember the planes, the buildings, the fire, the smoke, the ash, and the faces of the living, the missing and the dead.
We remember the people who we now call heroes -- the people who broke their backs to make sure no one was left missing. We remember the makeshift signs -- "We are not afraid"; "You ran in when we all ran out. For that we are forever grateful"; "Our prayers are with you"; "Missing Michael Taylor. Call with info." We remember what became known as Ground Zero -- the pit, the pile, the zone.
These things that we remember have been captured on film by professionals, and by ordinary people, in "here is new york: a democracy of photographs," a photographic memorial that opened Sept. 7 at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.
It is a memorial about "hope, devastation, life, death, shock, horror, unity, heroism, fear, disbelief, anger, love, courage, sadness, grief, compassion, and spirit," the exhibition's organizers say. But, more importantly, the memorial is the evidence that some of us have already forgotten about -- the only evidence we really need to keep fighting -- the pictures of our innocent dead, wounded, and displaced.
When you first enter the exhibition space, there is a photo of a mother squatting down next to her baby. The two of them are a far distance from Manhattan, sitting high up on a rooftop. The mother is looking down at her baby, but you can imagine that she at one point looked up at what remained of the smoldering towers and then looked down at her baby again in disbelief. Back and forth, you imagine her, looking down at her baby and up at the towers until she could start to register what was happening.
There is a picture of a well-dressed man. He is covered in white powdery debris. He looks like he is barely breathing -- yet there he is, smoking a cigarette. His wispy gray hair is blowing in the wind, his eyes stare out straight ahead, and his water bottle is half empty. There are people around him who appear untouched by the morning's events, except for the fact that they are on their cell phones desperately trying to reach family or friends.
There is a picture of a table perfectly set with linen napkins and lovely china. The wine is poured, the bread is placed, and the food is served. The picture speaks of another time -- a picture taken at Windows of the World on a romantic evening before Sept. 11.
There are many portraits of firemen, police officers, construction workers and paramedics. They wear hard hats and their faces are red and tired.
There is a picture of a father in uniform with his two daughters. One girl has her eyes closed. She is resting her head on her father's steady arm. The other is looking at the ground. It appears that they are at a cemetery. We don't know these people, or who they buried that day, but we can only hope it was not a mother.
There are many patriotic portraits of the American flag: a man waving his flag high in the sky; a casket adorned in red, white and blue; a rosy cheek or white t-shirt painted with the stars and stripes. And there are many more pictures that make your stomach rise up to your throat: a plane just about to crash into the towers; bodies falling from the towers; a gaping wound of fire and smoke in the side of the Pentagon.
"Here is new york," taken from the title of E.B. White's 1949 essay, started with one photograph displayed in the window of a store on Prince Street in New York's SoHo. Within months, thousands of photographs were collected, "clipped to wires like laundry drying in the alleyways of Naples, Italy," one of the exhibition's founding directors, Michael Shulan, says in an essay. And that is how the pictures are displayed here, too.
There are no frames or names. According to Shulan, "The intent is to commemorate and memorialize these tragic events, showing what happened from as many different angles as possible, as an aid both to healing and to grasping the human dimension of what took place."
Washington, D.C., is the third major venue for the exhibition in the United States (thousands of photographs have already been displayed in New York and Chicago). The pictures featured at the Corcoran include the debut of 500 images from the Pentagon and the Flight 93 crash site in Pennsylvania. Organizers are also calling on those in the Washington area to contribute their own photographs relating to the events of Sept. 11, which will be scanned and added to an archive that is already 5,000 pictures strong. As the Corcoran notes, the idea behind the roving exhibit is to collect, organize, display and preserve for historical purposes the broadest possible view of Sept. 11 and its aftermath.
"Here is new york: a democracy of photographs" will be on display at the Corcoran Gallery of Art through Nov. 11, 2002. A separate electronic exhibition of Sept. 11 will be on display on the Ellipse, Sept. 8-12. Additional photographs will be on display in Houston, Texas, Sept. 11-12, at the Miller Outdoor Theatre in Hermann Park, and Sept. 14 to Oct. 13 at Memorial City Mall.

Q: vpncloud not working on EC2 (Ubuntu) [but works between Azure and GCP] I'm attempting to set-up VPNcloud (https://github.com/dswd/vpncloud.rs/wiki) as a private VPN for my EC2 instance (running Ubuntu). I'm using this for a private network between this EC2 VM and my GCP and Azure VM's (using the same package on Ubuntu).
All 3 x VMs have static public IP's. The VPN uses private 192.168.1.0/24 addresses defined in the config and in /etc/hosts. The VPN intercepts traffic destined to these private IPs and forwards it through the encrypted tunnels on the public IPs.
The VPN is working between Azure and GCP, but I cannot get the AWS node to play along.
The interface is up (myvpn0).
The port is open.
The process is running.
There is nothing (unusual) in the logs.
I have added an allow Anything from Anywhere f/w rule and that didn't seem to help. [I've tested this using netcat and though I suspect this is the issue, netcat is confirming the ports are open].
I have run tshark on the interface and can see outbound traffic (but no inbound responses).
I have run strace on the process and see nothing untoward in the trace. I see the process translate the outbound request onto the destination public IP, but then silence - no response from the destination. On the working Azure/GCP you can see the destinations response.
I can happily ssh between all three servers using their public/static IP numbers.
It appears to be something external to the VM, but I can't see what.
Can any spot what I've missed or have any ideas on what to try next?
Thanks,
Pete

A: Make sure that your EC2 Security Group permits inbound ports for your VPN traffic. Go to EC2 Service -> Instances -> Find your instance -> In the details click on Security group and check the rules.
Also if you want to use the VPN instance as a gateway for your other AWS resource you may want to disable the Source/Destination Check in the EC2 config as otherwise AWS won't permit routing traffic through this instance.
Hope that helps :)

A: SOLVED!
AWS enables ufw by default and (sensibly) blocks all ports/traffic.
GCP doesn't enable it.
I've given up on Microsoft due to confusion about their "free" trial tier and no longer have access to the Azure VM.
To fix ...

ufw allow 3310/udp

There is no error, but it does not match the XML. Instead, it looks like this:

The first one is from the XML, the second one is my attempt at reproducing it programmatically.

A: LayoutInflater is the easiest way :
public View myView(){
       View v;
       LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getBaseContext().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
       v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.myview, null);
       TextView text1 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.dolphinTitle);
       Button btn1 = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.dolphinMinusButton);
       TextView text2 = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id. dolphinValue);
       Button btn2 = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id. dolphinPlusButton);
return v;

Papaya (Grafted) Plant
Papayas (Carica papaya) grow in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 10 through 11. However, they can also be planted in USDA zones 8 through 10 in large pots that can be brought indoors so that cold weather doesn't kill them. Although papayas look like trees, they are actually perennial herbs with hollow trunks. These branchless plants grow to 20 to 30 feet tall with 1-foot-long to 3 1/2-foot-long leaves growing directly from the trunk. Papayas are relatively fragile plants, with several common diseases, fungi and insects that can injure or kill them. Papayas require careful inspection and care of these conditions.

Papayas Planting & Care
Fill a half wine barrel or other large container with a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of equal parts sphagnum peat, compost and coarse sand. Fill the container to about 3 inches from the top of the container. Choose containers with a capacity of at least 10 gallons to ensure enough room for papayas to thrive. The container must have drainage holes in the bottom so that excess moisture in the soil can escape. You can drill holes in the bottom, using a power drill and a 1/2-inch diameter drill bit.
Gather seeds from a mature papaya fruit to start the papaya tree. Press the seeds against a colander to break the gelatinous sarcotesta sac, and rinse the seeds thoroughly. Steep the seeds in boiling hot water for 10 to 20 seconds, then soak them overnight in room-temperature water. While this step is not required, it helps speed up the germination time so that the tree grows faster. If you want to save the seeds for later planting, rinse the seeds and lay them on a paper towel to dry; store dried seeds in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. Steep the dried seeds in hot water one day before sowing them.
Sow about 12 seeds spaced evenly in a 12-inch circle at the center of the container. Cover the seeds with 1/2 inch of soil. Water the seeds at planting, and fertilize with a complete fertilizer, such as 10-10-10, added to the water supply. Germination should occur within two weeks. Multiple seeds are needed in each planting circle to ensure that some of the resulting trees are female or hermaphroditic. Female plants bear fruit, but at least one male plant is needed for cross-pollination. Hermaphroditic trees have both male and female reproductive organs. The seeds might produce plants with female flowers or hermaphroditic flowers, so multiple plants are needed for you to determine their genders when they flower.
Thin out the seedlings about six weeks after planting, leaving the six healthiest plants in each container. Look for plants with strong growth and thick stems. Cut off plants with weak, spindly growth at soil level to avoid disturbing the roots of the remaining plants. Reduce the number of plants per container to three plants after another six weeks of growth. Let the plants grow undisturbed until flower buds develop on the plant.
Determine the genders of the young flowering plants. Female flower buds are cone-shaped, with a wide base that tapers to a point at the tip of the bud. Hermaphroditic flower buds are cylindrical with a base and tip of roughly the same size. Male flower buds are spoon-shaped, with a narrow base and wide tip. Remove all but one of the male plants from the group of new plants; leave at least one female or hermaphroditic plant. Cut the unwanted plants back to the soil.
Water the papaya plants around the root zone as needed. Papayas need plenty of water to grow tasty fruit, but the plants do not tolerate wet feet. To avoid overwatering the papaya, water deeply only when the top 1 inch of soil dries.
Apply a complete fertilizer every two months after planting, using a formula that contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, such as 10-10-10.
Spray the trees regularly with fungicidal spray applied to the leaves and trunk to prevent fungal problems. Apply the fungicide once every two to three weeks if your area receives heavy rainfall; spray every three to four weeks in drier areas. Add wettable sulfur to the fungicidal spray to treat powdery mildew. Prevention is key with papaya plants, because diseases are difficult to impossible to treat once established.
Place paper bags over developing fruit, and tie them in place until harvest to prevent papaya fruit flies from infesting the fruit. These flies lay their eggs under the peel, and the larvae eat the fruit from the inside out. Remove papaya webworms with your hands, or spray them off, using a garden hose with a sprayer nozzle set to spray at high pressure. Prune damaged leaves infested with papaya whitefly; alternatively, you can spray the leaves with insecticidal soap.
Cut down your papaya tree every 18 to 24 months and start with new plants as a control measure against the buildup of common diseases, such as papaya ringspot virus, anthracnose and papaya apical necrosis. Dispose of the potting soil; do not add this to your compost pile, because any soil problems will be transferred to the compost. Wash and disinfect the container thoroughly with diluted bleach, using one part bleach to nine parts

Other shutdowns
Aluminum companies have shut down smelters to sell their electricity
allocations in other places. In the summer of 1999, skyrocketing
electricity prices in the midwestern U.S. led Alcan and Southwire to
curtail production at their Sebree and Hawesville smelters and sold their
captive power (105 and 90 megawatts, respectively) to the grid. (Stephen
Johnston, "Aluminium," Mining Annual Review, March 2000)
In May 2000, Ormet announced that it would limit production at its
Hannibal, Ohio, smelter during the summer and would lay-off, temporarily,
270 workers. "This is an endeavor that no other company in our industry has
been able to accomplish," said Emmett Boyle, chairman, president and CEO of
Ormet Corporation. "This will make us a more competitive force and will
strengthen our company's position in the future. We will continually review
the value of selling power to determine if it's a healthy business venture
for the company. We'll be looking for a proper balance of energy and metal
sales that will ultimately strengthen the company's portfolio."
"The decision to curtail aluminum production at this time ultimately came
down to three economic factors which include extremely low aluminum prices,
higher than usual alumina prices and higher electrical energy prices in the
peak summer months," explained a company press release. (Ormet, "Ormet
Announces Plans to Curtail Aluminum Production, Sell Power and Alumina,"
company press release, May 18, 2000)
Ramifications of electricity deregulation in the U.S. reaches across the
border into the Canadian province of British Columbia. In late 2000, Alcan
announced plans to shut down three potrooms in its Kitimat Works. The
plant's union, Canadian Auto Workers Local 2301, said the shutdown is the
result of provincial and corporate "greed."
"This whole situation stems from the government's 'greed' of making huge
profits by selling power across the border and Alcan's never ending
'Corporate Greed' of maximum profits no matter who or what it affects," the
CAW local asserted in a Dec. 14, 2000, statement. "The sad part is that our
members are being used as pawns in this battle. The closing of these lines
would have a huge impact on the community and is a direct attack on the
integrity of our local union 'Alcan must be stopped' for the sake of our
union brothers and sisters whose jobs will be affected. If we don't stop
this now who knows, maybe next year more jobs will be eliminated. If the
price of power is right! ("Union Says "No" to Line One Shutdown," CAW Local
2301, Dec. 14, 2000)
"If Alcan committed to a bad power deal they should pay the price. Our
members, and our community should not have to be the ones that pay the
ultimate cost. When times were good, Alcan didn't mind reaping all the
additional profits for the last few decades on the surplus power. Yet now
when fortunes turn temporarily around, they don't want to put any of that
'surplus' back into Kitimat Works to save jobs. We remind Alcan that it
also has a commitment to our community as well. Not just their profitable
power commitment with BC Hydro," added the CAW local. (ibid)
The situation marked a quick turnaround by the BC government. As recently
as December 1997, BC's premier "invited producers to build smelters in the
province with an offer of cheap electricity," according to the Mining
Journal (June 5, 1998)


Why two competitive artists, both trying to claim Toronto, have never collaborated.
On "Summer Sixteen"—a single from Drake's upcoming Views From The 6 project that was released on last Saturday's episode of OVO Sound Radio—Drake appears to publicly recognize Tory Lanez, a fellow Torontonian, for the first time.
If there's real disharmony between Drake and Lanez, though, it's tough to pinpoint any particular incident it might be rooted in. More than beef, these lyrics seem to reflect a misunderstanding between two talented and competitive artists, who are at different stages of their careers, but both compelled to stake claims for their city. (Representatives for both Tory Lanez and Drake did not return requests for comment).
The two were linked as early as 2010. There's a YouTube video from early that year, titled "Drake's Lil Brother Tory Lanez Freestyle In The Room." The clip doesn't appear to have been posted or sanctioned by Lanez, but it seems to have spawned a rumour that Lanez and Drake were related—scroll deep into the comments and you'll see arguments about whether Lanez and Drake are actually kin. That same winter, Lanez released a video to clarify that he was not Drake's little brother, and to issue a $10,000 challenge to get Drake listen to his music: if he didn't like it, he said, he'd give him the money. It was a weird, daring proposal, and also a sign of self-confidence. Drake did not accept.
Fast forward five years and Tory Lanez has hit his stride, hooking up with manager Sascha Stone and signing a deal with Interscope. He's released a string of mixtapes, and collaborated with Bun B, Trina, YG, Ty Dolla $ign, and Meek Mill. Perhaps that work with Meek Mill increased, revived, or created tension between OVO and Lanez—but when Drake and Meek exchanged diss tracks last summer, Lanez did not publicly take a side.
A big part of Drake's living legend is what he's built in Toronto, and how many acts he's put on in one way or another. But Lanez has long emphasized the fact that he came up against all odds, without a co-sign. Now that he's doing quite well for himself, with a record deal with Interscope and the continued success of "Say It," he seems to be at peace with that part of his story. And as Toronto continues to produce new music talent, OVO-affiliated and otherwise, it'd be unreasonable to suggest that Drake should be publicly obligated to push forward the careers of all Toronto natives.
That sense of braggadocio is on full tilt on Lanez' New Toronto—any line could be interpreted as a shot to an unsuspecting bystander. Aiming to show off his skill and prove he's someone to watch out for, he sounds like someone who wouldn't mind being acknowledged as a worthy opponent.


The two major atmospheric science organizations also have scholarship opportunities.
While we are on the subject of these organizations, it may not be a bad idea to become a member of one or both. Student members of the AMS & NWA get reduced member due rates and can also benefit from the various programs, conferences, journals, and publications that each have to offer. As a matter of fact, the National Weather Association conference was held in Louisville in 2008!


It's what you say that matters!
GG&A believes that the selling process is not a "war." There are no pitched battles and there certainly should be no loser in the process. Our systems and strategies are designed around a unique selling concept that is a collaboration.
By nature, most selling and marketing systems are confrontational. They are designed to get a client or consumer to do something they would rather not. At GG&A our system revolves around the concept of helping the consumer or client. If you help them, you never have to "sell" them.
Please take a moment or two to browse through the site and learn more about how we have helped clients realize their goals.

World War I Medal of Honor winner dies
On this day in 1979, Medal of Honor recipient Samuel M. Sampler died in Fort Myers, Florida. Sampler was born at Decatur, Texas, on January 27, 1895, the son of Francis E. and Lorenza D. Sampler. He entered military service at Altus, Oklahoma. Corporal Sampler was a member of Company H, 142d Infantry, Thirty-sixth Infantry Division, United States Army, on October 8, 1918, near St. Étienne, France. His company suffered severe losses from machine-gun fire, and its advance was stopped. Sampler detected the enemy positions on an elevation. Armed with German grenades, which he had picked up, he advanced alone until he was near the enemy nest. His third grenade killed two Germans and caused the surrender of twenty-eight more. As a result of his brave and unselfish action the company was able to advance on its objective. Sampler received the Medal of Honor from Gen. John J. Pershing on April 22, 1919. He was also awarded the French Croix de Guerre and Italian War Cross.
Houston joins church
On this day in 1854, Texas hero Sam Houston joined Independence Baptist Church and was baptized in nearby Little Rocky Creek by Rufus C. Burleson. Houston joined at the urging of his wife, Margaret Moffette Lea Houston, and her mother, Nancy Moffette Lea. A deeply religious woman, Margaret Houston worked hard to restrain Houston's drinking and to lead him to a more settled and devout life. The church, located in Independence, Washington County, was organized in 1839 by Rev. Thomas Spraggins and a small group of fellow Baptists. The devout Mrs. Lea, who had moved to Independence in 1852, sold her silverware and gave the money to the church for a bell. Though the current building dates only to 1872, the pew in which Sam Houston sat has been preserved and is marked so that visitors can see it.
Mormons arrive in Texas
On this day in 1845, the first group of Mormon settlers to come to Texas, led by Lyman Wight, arrived in Grayson County. After wintering in an abandoned fort at Preston, this group of dissident Mormons pressed on to Austin in June 1846. They remained in the capital until 1847, when they established the community of Zodiac near Fredericksburg. This hamlet, where Wight implemented an idiosyncratic form of communitarianism he called the "common stock principle," became a mecca for Mormon dissenters. After a visit by missionaries Preston Thomas and William Martindale in 1848-49, Wight was excommunicated by the Mormons in Utah for his insubordination and doctrinal irregularities. Zodiac was destroyed by a flood in 1851. After living at several other sites Wight died in 1858. Thereafter, his colony dispersed.

Amazing 2D Rubens' Tube Visualizes Sound With a Plane of Fire
Newton May 17, 2014 Videos
Image Credit: Veritasium/YouTube
German physicist Heinrich Rubens became very famous among nerds in 1905 when he created a tube that uses fire to picture standing sound waves. When there is no sound served into the tube, the flames upsurge to the same height. When a sound is produced into the tube, the waveform truly marks the amount of gas that is served through each hole.
At the point of extreme displacement on the wave, the gas density varies. The pressure is maximum when the wave peaks and the gas is pressed nearer to the hole, which powers more fuel out and bases the flame to grow higher. When the wave impulses down into the trough, it can't really pull the gas back in. The flame has enough gas and oxygen to continue burning higher until the wave crests at that point once more.
The portion of the wave which marks the midline and rests unaffected is referred to as the node. Obviously, volume plays a big part on how these flames will act. The above explanation relates when the volume is great, but if the arriving sound is silent, the crest of the wave isn't enough to override the opposite pressure of the trough, and the anti-nodes essentially appear smaller than the nodes.
Physicists and chemists have established an apparatus with 2,500 holes in the top. The key modification is that these holes are not all in a line like an old Rubens tube, but really cover an whole plane.
The consequences are pretty astounding. Check it out:

Yes, I take this personally: bi stereotypes in queer spaces.
So, tonight I was going to write a post about food ethics and part-time herbivory, and possibly round it off with a pretty photo of the delicious lentil moussaka that I just made. However, while I was waiting for the moussaka to bake*, I happened upon a post over on AfterEllen that got me all cranky. See, I really don't like it when people go around telling me how I can and can't identify. I really don't like it when people say that my identity isn't real, that it's absolutely fine for them to talk about how it's not real and to talk shit about people like me. And I really, really don't like it when they also say that it's not okay for me to be upset by this.
Which is why I did not like the recent post by Ariel Schrag, Comics 'n Things: Queer identities in comics.
Now, there were two major sections to this article, which was about Erika Moen's comic DAR. In the second section she criticises Moen's attitudes towards transmen. While I think the whole issue of gender and attraction is complicated as all hell and that people should be able to express their gendered preferences, I'm also well aware that there can also be a hell of a creepy (not to mention disrespectful) element to the way that people talk about their attraction to trans people, and that is Not Okay. Nope. Not good. But in this, me and Schrag are in agreement.
My problem is with the first 3 pages of the article. Schrag talks disparagingly about Moen's experiences as a lesbian who finds herself in love with a man, and the complications of navigating this as a queer-identified person with a big personal investment in the gay community. And then she says that, well, it's absolutely fine for the gay community to be resentful of her, because after all she has all this het privilege now. And that Moen now has no right to claim a queer identity. And no right to have a hard time with all of this, and to talk about having a hard time. And no right to talk about being happy in her relationship.
You know something? No. Just, no.
If Moen says that it was harder to deal with falling for a guy when she ID'd as gay than to deal with coming out as gay in the first place? Then it was harder. I've been there, it's fucking hard. It's a hell of a lot harder to come out as something where you don't get to have a nice neat pre-packaged community of people like you who have clearly signposted places to hang out. I was talking about this with a friend of mine** who put it like this:
"oh no my mother is displeased but all of my friends are incredibly supportive!"
"oh look all my friends are kind of tossing vicious slurs at me."
"…but my mother's less disappointed, so WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE WRONG"
Which seems to me like a rather succinct representation of the whole thing.
But yes. Not cool, Schrag. Seriously.
And any other points I would like to make are going to have to wait, because the timer just went off on the oven and it's Delicious Moussaka O'Clock.
*it smells yummy. Yummy, I tell you!
**who insisted on either remaining anonymous or having an obscene pseudonym. Prudey McPruderson over here has decided that this means anonymity. So there.

Q: Unwanted white space before a language command I have a problem with a command which sets the greek language for a section of text, which I defined as follows: \newcommand{\grk}[1]{{\selectlanguage[variant=ancient]{greek}#1}}.
After I did some updates, it prints an unwanted space before the text included in the new command, as you can see in this MWE:

Have you ever stuffed strawberries with creamy fresh goat cheese? Wait until you see how easy this low-carb appetizer is. It's perfect for summer entertaining, whether you're hosting a backyard barbecue or throwing an elegant dinner party. If you have any guests who are following a low-carb diet or are gluten free or vegetarian, they will really appreciate this simple snack.
This hors d'oeuvre shows off the savory side of strawberries and brings out their natural acidity. I love the combination of sweet, fragrant strawberries and creamy cheese flecked with minced rosemary and lemon zest. All you need are five ingredients, a paring knife, and some practice with a piping bag.
I made a batch of these stuffed strawberries for the June meeting of Food Bloggers Los Angeles, our local blogging network. They were good, but then I had a flash of inspiration and sprinkled them with a tiny bit of salt. Sounds weird? It totally worked. Don't skip the sprinkle.
Note: You may have extra filling. It's delicious spread on toast, or you can use it to fill hollowed-out cucumber cups, cherry tomatoes, roasted mushrooms, or grilled zucchini boats.
Ripe strawberries stuffed with a combination of fresh goat cheese and cream cheese flecked with rosemary and lemon zest. A wonderful summer appetizer that's low-carb, gluten free, vegetarian and grain-free.
Wash the strawberries. With a small paring knife, remove the hull (leaves). Cut a small circle into the top of each berry to make a small cavity. Place the berries upside-down on a paper towel to dry while you make the filling.Put the goat cheese, cream cheese, lemon zest and rosemary into the bowl of the food processor. Add a pinch of salt and a generous grind of pepper. Blend until smooth. Transfer the cheese mixture to the piping bag.Carefully fill each strawberry with goat cheese, creating a decorative swirl on top. Sprinkle with a tiny bit of additional salt. Garnish with the additional rosemary springs. Serve immediately.
This was one of my favorite things from the meeting! I might or might not have taken 6 of them home with me. And I might or might not have eaten 3 of them in the car on the way home.
These look AMAZING. You should link this up over at Sustainable Sundays :) It would be perfect for people who grow strawberries and make their own cheese.
Wow, these look and sound so good! I have everything to make these except the goat cheese so it looks like I'm going to the store!

AVENGERS: ENDGAME Gets An Empty Re-Release This Weekend
Trollprince The White
When 20th Century Fox re-released Avatar in the summer of 2010, the movie was already the domestic, international and worldwide box office champ. And even though Avatar: Special Edition added 30 more minutes of footage, which was just a bunch of character stuff and cut scene CGI, the film only managed to gross $10 million on it's second go around.
Maybe that lackluster performance was more down to the DVD release being just a couple of months away than a lack of interest in the movie itself.
This weekend, Disney is counting on fans to show up for the 1500 screen re-release of Endgame even though they are adding zero additional new footage. That's right, dork, just buy the ticket and sit there for 2.5 hours watching a movie you've already seen two or three times so Disney can wrest the box office crown away from Avatar.
It's only $30 million dollars short! Don't you want Marvel to have the biggest box office hit of all-time? Don't you love comic books? Remember when you read comic books when you were a kid? When you were innocent and carefree? Aren't you nostalgic for that time?
Well, then… what are you waiting for?
Together, we can change history
OK, So It's Not Technically The Same
They have an end-scene this time! Additionally, some theaters will give you:
A very special introduction from the Russo Brothers
A tribute to Stan Lee
A new trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home
An unfinished, deleted scene
This free poster
Help Avengers: Endgame, fanboy. You're Disney Corporation's only hope!

How To Remove Discord Audio From Obs?
Access the audio settings in OBS. You can do this by clicking the "Settings" option in the bottom right corner of the OBS window.
Select the "Audio" tab in the left-hand menu. This will open the audio settings.
Scroll down to the "Sources" section, click on the "+" icon, and select "Discord" from the list.
Once the Discord audio source has been added, you can adjust the volume and output settings for it.
Finally, to remove the Discord audio from OBS, simply uncheck the box next to "Enabled". This will disable the audio and prevent it from being streamed.
How do I separate Discord audio from desktop audio OBS?
OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is a free and open-source streaming and recording program used for streaming live content to the internet. It is also used for recording videos and audio for a variety of purposes. One of the most popular uses for OBS is to separate audio from a Discord session from other desktop audio.
In order to separate Discord audio from desktop audio with OBS, you will first need to make sure that OBS is set up properly. This includes setting up the audio sources and ensuring that they are properly configured. Once the audio sources have been configured, it is time to move on to the next step.
The next step is to set up a virtual audio cable. This is a virtual cable that allows audio from different sources to be routed to different destinations. The virtual audio cable needs to be configured so that the audio from the Discord session is sent to a different source than that of the desktop audio. Once the virtual audio cable is set up, it is time to move on to the next step.
How do I mute Discord in OBS 2022?
Muting Discord in OBS 2022 is a fairly straightforward process. First, open the OBS application. From there, navigate to the 'Sources' tab and click the '+' symbol near the bottom of the window. Select 'Desktop Audio' to bring up the audio source options. You'll now see a list of all of your audio sources, including Discord. Simply uncheck the box next to the Discord source to mute it in OBS.
Alternatively, you can also mute Discord in OBS 2022 by right-clicking the Discord source in the Sources window and selecting 'Mute Sources'. This will immediately mute the Discord source and you won't have to worry about audio coming through from it in your stream or recording.
If you ever need to unmute the Discord source in OBS 2022, simply right-click it again and select 'Unmute Sources' to enable the audio. Muting and unmuting Discord in OBS 2022 is a simple process that shouldn't take more than a minute or two.
Does OBS pickup Discord audio?
Yes, OBS, or Open Broadcaster Software, is able to pick up Discord audio. OBS is a streaming and recording program designed for content creators that allows them to capture audio and video from a variety of sources. It is also capable of mixing audio from multiple sources, such as Discord, Skype, and other applications, and can be used to create high quality streaming and recording content.
To set up OBS to pick up Discord audio, you first need to make sure that you have the Discord app installed and the audio settings configured. Once this is done, open OBS and navigate to the Audio Mixer section in the settings menu. Here, you will see a list of all the audio sources and outputs that OBS can use. Select the Discord app from the list of sources and set it as the primary audio source.
With OBS configured to use Discord audio, you can then stream or record audio from Discord. The audio will be captured in the same quality as it was recorded in Discord, allowing you to create high quality content. Additionally, OBS also allows you to mix audio from multiple sources, such as Discord, Skype, and other applications, giving you more creative freedom and control when creating content.

Primitive is a multiple screen video installation, created specifically for display within a gallery, by Thai filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul. It consists of seven videos of differing durations in which the history of the border town of Nabua, in northeast Thailand, is re-imagined as an elusive science fiction ghost story rooted in Thai folklore. The work comprises eight projections, since one of the videos, Primitive which gives the work its name, is shown on two synchronised screens. The seven videos are: Primitive (duration 29 minutes 34 seconds), Nabua (duration 9 minutes 11 seconds), Making of the Spaceship (duration 28 minutes 13 seconds), A Dedicated Machine (duration 1 minute), An Evening Shoot (duration 4 minutes 10 seconds), I'm Still Breathing (music video, duration 11 minutes) and Nabua Song (music video, duration 4 minutes 12 seconds). Nabua, situated where the Mekong River divides Thailand from Laos, was historically the scene of considerable racial strife and violence. From the 1960s until the early 1980s it was a 'red zone' where the Mao-influenced Communists hid in the jungle. The Thai army curbed the communist insurgent farmers through physical and psychological abuse and murder. The town also harbours an ancient legend about a widow ghost who would abduct any man who entered her empire, earning it the nickname 'widow town'. Weerasethakul transforms the town into one of men, the teenage male descendants of the farmer communists, freed from the widow ghost's empire. These teenagers fabricate their own memories and build a new world, manufacturing a spaceship in the ricefields.
For Weerasethakul the jungle is a place of darkness and mystery, in which distinctions between the fictional and the real dissolve. It is a parallel world, populated by enchanted spectres, where mystery and emotion mingle in shadow. The jungle forms a perfect stage for the artist's fascination with reincarnation, transformation and light. Curator James Quandt has commented that Weerasethakul's work turns 'everyday objects and images into the ineffable and enigmatic, inhabitants of a phantom zone where the hard, "real" world of cars and bodies and buildings cedes dominion to a magical realm of reverie and desire' (Österreichisches Filmmuseum and SYNEMA – Gesellschaft für Film und Medien 2009).
The artist has stated that Primitive is 'a reincarnation of presence (and absence). It's also a reincarnation of cinema as a means of transportation as it was in the time of the early cinema innovator Georges Méliès: the "motion picture" carries us from our own world. Primitive is a meditation on those voyages in fabulous vehicles that bring about the transformation of people and of light' (unpublished artist's statement, September 2008).
Inspired in part by surrealism, Weerasethakul's films present a world that is distinctly mutable and elusive, evoking the artist's interest in the surrealist game Exquisite Corpse, whereby players add words or images sequentially to a sentence or diagram without knowing what came before, so as to construct a fanciful, multi-layered scenario. Conventional narrative unravels as storylines change course and genre morphs from fiction to fantasy to documentary. Drawing heavily on anecdotal traditions from rural Thai villagers, as well as personal politics, social issues and his own early fascination with science fiction, Weerasethakul crafts a unique approach to history which is seemingly caught in an endless cycle of dreams.
