Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic now on iPad
June 2, 2013 October 26, 2020 Peter Andersen Knights of the Old Republic, Kotor, other starwars games
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic can now be acquired now from Apple's App Store for a penny shy of seven pounds. That's expensive for an app, but gets you the entire game, and many hours of gameplay. If you haven't already played it, you should definitely get it now. You can also get the game for the low price of $9.99 for the Steam version. The game itself is a turn-based role-playing game that drops you into the Old Republic
Because the iPad has no physical controls, developer Aspyr has bolted on some touch controls, that see you dragging your finger around the screen to make your character run around.
Gaming site IGN has reviewed the game already and says that the movement controls are a little clunky, though because combat involves tapping on-screen buttons to key up attacks, the action sequences work well with the touchscreen.
The bad news is that Apple's site says you'll need an iPad running iOS 6 or later, which means the company's original tablet, released back in 2010, is not supported.
The download itself is a hearty 1.98GB, so you may have to make some space on your iPad before beginning the download.
Will you give the game a try? Which other classic games would suit an iPad conversion? Let me know in the comments.

Report: Jets expected to fire Adam Gase following Week 17 game
Chris Cwik
The New York Jets are expected to fire Gase following the team's Week 17 game against the New England Patriots, according to Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
The news doesn't exactly come as a surprise. In two seasons with the team, Gase has gone 9-22 and failed to lift the Jets' offense despite his background as a coordinator on that side of the ball.
The Jets rank 31st in passing yards and 23rd in rushing yards in 2020. They've also scored just 24 offensive touchdowns, which is tied for last in the league. Last season, the Jets ranked 27th in passing yards and 31st in rushing. They scored 31 touchdowns in 2019, which ranked 26th.
Curiously, the Jets decided to make the move with the team on a winning streak. After losing their first 13 games of the season, the Jets have won two straight games. Those wins came at a price, however, as the Jets took themselves out of the No. 1 draft spot with last week's win over the Cleveland Browns.
Who will Jets pursue to replace Adam Gase?
The Jets are expected to talk to a number of candidates once Gase is gone. Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bienemy is reportedly among the big names the team will consider. Pelissero and Rapoport add Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Wink Martindale, Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Brandon Staley to that list. They also mention college coaches like Matt Campbell, Jim Harbaugh and Dan Mullen.
Whoever the team hires will have to make some significant decisions about the future of the franchise. The Jets are locked into the No. 2 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. Assuming Trevor Lawrence goes No. 1 to the Jacksonville Jaguars, the new Jets coach will have to determine whether the team should take a different quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick. Sam Darnold hasn't flourished as an NFL starter, though plenty of offensive players have taken their game to another level after Gase no longer coaches them. That list includes Ryan Tannehill, Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki.
The next Jets coach will have to determine whether they see that same potential in Darnold.

Nate Morris Appointed as Senior Advisor to Scowcroft Center
Will Aid Atlantic Council's Mission to Support Renewed, Constructive, and Resourceful U.S. LeadershipLexington, KY, Jan. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security has named Nate Morris as a Senior Advisor. The Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security works to develop sustainable, nonpartisan strategies to address the most critical security challenges facing the United States and the world. The Center honors the legacy of service of General Brent Scowcroft. It embodies his ethos of nonpartisan commitment to the cause of security, support for U.S. leadership in cooperation with allies and partners, and dedication to the mentorship of the next generation of leaders. "I am proud to help protect and secure America's future by joining the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center," said Morris. "I believe that the use of free-market solutions is the only way to address our country's largest and longest-standing challenges, which will continue to serve as a model for the world. That's what we've done at Rubicon, and the result is a more democratized waste industry. I am committed to continuing to give every corner of our country a seat at the table as we build a better, more sustainable future for everyone." Morris is the founder of Morris Industries, a Lexington, Kentucky-based conglomerate that reimagines the industrial economy. His passion for solving the environmental threats posed by global waste was pivotal in his founding of Rubicon; a software company focused on waste and recycling and the signature asset of Morris Industries. "The accumulation of waste and its harmful impact on our planet is not only a matter of environmental concern but ultimately of national security," continued Morris. "This issue presents a threat to our water supplies, food sources, and biodiversity and it impacts the health and safety of communities everywhere. I look forward to bringing my knowledge and experience in the waste industry to bear in addressing this most pressing of global problems." Morris was the first Kentuckian to be named to Fortune Magazine's 40 Under 40 list and was named a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. He will draw on his years of corporate leadership and public policy experience to help the Council's Foresight, Strategy and Risks Initiative (FSR) analyze global trends to create long-range assessments for making sense of increasingly complex and unpredictable world dynamics. "Nate Morris is an exciting voice on the power of technology and business in addressing public policy," said Atlantic Council's Vice-Chair of the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, Ambassador Paula Dobriansky. "His unique perspective and experience building a multi-billion dollar, multinational corporation that has rewritten the rules of his industry will serve the Atlantic Council well." The Atlantic Council promotes constructive leadership and engagement in international affairs based on the Atlantic Community's central role in meeting global challenges. The Council provides an essential forum for navigating the dramatic economic and political changes defining the twenty-first century by informing and galvanizing its uniquely influential global leaders network. Through the papers it publishes, the ideas it generates, the future leaders it develops, and the communities it builds, the Atlantic Council shapes policy choices and strategies to create a more free, secure, and prosperous world. About Morris IndustriesMorris Industries is a Lexington, Kentucky-based private conglomerate that reimagines the industrial economy. Steeped in the spirit of social enterprise, Morris Industries is built on a belief that market-driven innovation can support sustainability goals, drive profit, and equip businesses to solve society's biggest challenges.

RideShare Rental, Inc., formerly YayYo, Inc., announces $2 million extension of ACME Auto Leasing LLC line of credit
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Jan. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RideShare Rental, Inc., formerly YayYo, Inc. ("RSR" or the "Company") (Other OTC:YAYO), a leading provider of vehicles to the rideshare and delivery gig economy industry, acting through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rideshare Car Rentals, LLC, today announced that ACME Auto Leasing LLC has increased their line of credit to the Company by $2 million. The extension will be used to fund additional passenger vehicles for the rideshare industry, including the purchase of transit high top cargo vans for last -mile logistics. The bulk of the funds will be allocated towards the purchase of electric vehicles (EV) to launch RSR's EV strategy for the rideshare space. Ramy El-Batrawi, Chief Executive Officer of RSR said, "The higher line of credit will help us to ramp up our fleet and continue to rapidly deploy new vehicles as we strategically build out our expansion. Demand for vehicles continues to outpace supply and we're excited to be able to meet the demand of rideshare drivers. A supply of new cars and vans is scheduled to be begin delivery this week and continue through the rest of January and February. We already have commitments from PDQ Logistics, LLC for the vans we will use for long-term rentals. In several markets, we are experiencing greater than 95% utilization. We anticipate that most of the vehicles that will be delivered to us will be rented within a short period of time after our receipt, as we continue to supply drivers for Uber, Lyft, Grubhub, Postmates, and other gig economy drivers." Further, Mr. El-Batrawi stated, "The expansion of Rideshare Rental into electric vehicles not only further diversifies the Company, it takes us into the next generation of rideshare, as demonstrated by the recent announcements by Uber and Lyft that they are significantly expanding their electric vehicle and hybrid ride options and intend to be 100% electric by the end of this decade. Deploying electric vehicles instead of gasoline-powered models for services like Uber and Lyft provides obvious climate benefits. The one detriment of the explosive growth in ride-hailing in recent years is the effect it has had on climate-friendly mass transit. At present, there are a limited number of electric vehicles in the ride-hailing fleets to satisfy the rapidly growing demand. We intend to be in the vanguard of meeting this demand while at the same time helping to realize such important environmental benefits." Mr. El-Batrawi continued, "EV entry into ride-sharing is challenging because the vast majority of ride-sharing vehicles are driver-owned and electric vehicles currently have higher costs. With Rideshare Rental purchasing these EVs, we can in turn rent them to drivers at a much lower up-front cost. We are hopeful that entering this market will lead us to a cooperative agreement with ride-hailing companies." Rideshare Rental has entered into a leasing arrangement for the new vans with PDQ Logistics, LLC, a limited liability company whose managing member is Mr. El-Batrawi. In addition, Mr. El-Batrawi has provided ACME Auto Leasing with a personal guarantee on any borrowings on the expanded line of credit being used to finance the acquisition of the vehicles. These relationships constitute "related party transactions" under current SEC rules and regulations. About Rideshare Rental, Inc. (formerly YayYo, Inc.)

China hopes for co-operation, better relations under Biden
BEIJING — China on Thursday expressed hope the Biden administration will improve prospects for people of both countries and give a boost to relations after an especially rocky patch, while getting in a few final digs at former Trump officials. "I think after this very difficult and extraordinary time, both the Chinese and American people deserve a better future," Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying told reporters at a daily briefing. She said China and the U.S. need to relaunch co-operation in a number of areas. She particularly welcomed the new administration's decision to remain in the World Health Organization and return to the Paris Agreement on climate change. "Many people of insight in the international community are looking forward to the early return of Sino-U.S. relations to the correct track in making due contributions to jointly address the major and urgent challenges facing the world today," Hua said. She also criticized ex-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and other former officials, a day after Beijing imposed travel and business sanctions on 28 of them, including Trump's national security adviser Robert O'Brien and U.N. Ambassador Kelly Craft. "Over the past few years, the Trump administration, especially Pompeo, has buried too many mines in Sino-U.S. relations that need to be eliminated, burned too many bridges that need to be rebuilt and wrecked too many roads that need to be repaired," Hua said. Hua on Wednesday described Pompeo as a "doomsday clown" and said his designation of China as a perpetrator of genocide and crimes against humanity was merely "a piece of wastepaper." Hua's markedly more friendly tone Thursday appeared to signal Chinese hopes to cool the rhetoric on both sides and give the relationship a chance to heal over some of the worst divisions. "I think both China and the United States need to show courage, show wisdom, listen to each other, face up to each other and respect each other," Hua said. "I think this is the responsibility of the two major countries of China and the United States, and it is also the expectation of the international community." Also Thursday, China's Ambassador to the U.S. Cui Tiankai offered his congratulations to Biden on Twitter, which is widely used by the Chinese government despite being blocked in the country. "Congratulations to President Biden on his inauguration! China looks forward to working with the new administration to promote sound & steady development of China-U.S. relations and jointly address global challenges in public health, climate change & growth," Cui tweeted. Chinese President and Communist Party leader Xi Jinping congratulated Biden on his election but had no immediate comment on Wednesday's inauguration. While Biden's administration is expected to seek to put relations with China back on an even keel, he is unlikely to significantly alter U.S. policies on trade, Taiwan, human rights and the South China Sea that have angered Xi's increasingly assertive government. ___ This story has been corrected to show that the number of officials sanctioned by China was 28, not 30.

Alcohol Ethoxylates Market Projected to Reach USD 8.01 Billion By 2027 | Surge in Demand for Biodegradable and Environment-Friendly Cleaning Products will be the Key Factor Driving the Industry Growth, says Reports and Data
The global alcohol ethoxylates market is forecast to reach USD 8.01 Billion by 2027, according to a new report by Reports and Data. Alcohol Ethoxylates can be defined as a class of compound that finds extensive application in various commercial markets and industrial practices.New York, Jan. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global alcohol ethoxylates market is poised to reach a valuation of USD 8.01 Billion by 2027, growing at a 4.1% CAGR through the forecast duration. Alcohol ethoxylate (AE) is a colorless substance highly soluble in organic solvents. It is a non-ionic surfactant comprising hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chain and oleophilic fatty alcohol. Due to its low toxicity level, it is widely used in industrial and institutional cleaners, emulsifiers, degreasers, and agricultural chemicals. It offers several advantages, such as low-to-moderate foaming ability, water hardness endurance, enhanced cleaning, and rapid biodegradation. Alcohol ethoxylates find widespread application in pharmaceutical and cosmetics & personal care industries for their usage in cream-based products. These substances are also used in various high and low-foaming products, owing to their excellent detergent properties and rapid surface-wetting agents. Hence, they are used in powder detergents, laundry pre-treatment products, fabric conditioners, household cleaning products, industrial cleaners, and textiles.Get FREE Sample Copy with TOC of the Report to understand the structure of the complete report@ https://www.reportsanddata.com/sample-enquiry-form/2360 The global alcohol ethoxylates market, which accounted for a significant market size in 2019, is forecast to attain a substantially greater market size over the projected period. The predominant factors aiding in the growth of this market are the escalating demand for high-grade industrial and household cleaning products, growing need for biodegradable surfactants, soaring demand for low-foam and low-rinse detergents, and rising awareness about health and hygiene. Increasing applications of alcohol ethoxylates across the cosmetics, pharmaceutical, textile, and agricultural industries, and the stringent government norms restricting the use of surfactants containing toxic chemicals are the other pivotal factors contributing to the global market growth. Alcohol ethoxylate is low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which makes it environmentally safe and sustainable. Therefore, the growing demand for products with low VOC content is another driving factor for the global alcohol ethoxylates market. Key findings of the report Based on product type, the linear alcohol ethoxylates segment is the fastest-growing segment projected to register a 4.8% CAGR over the forecast period. This segment is projected to attain a 33.0% share of the global market by 2027. High biodegradability of linear alcohol ethoxylates, coupled with the burgeoning demand for biodegradable cleaning products, is expected to boost the segmental growth. In terms of application, the wetting agents segment is the most dominant in the global alcohol ethoxylates market, poised to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% in the coming years. While, the cleaning end-use segment is the largest market segment with an estimated CAGR of 3.8% over the projected period. Augmenting demand for institutional, industrial, and household cleaning products, and the rising adoption of detergents with low-rinse and enhanced cleansing properties are the key factors propelling this segment's growth.North America, followed by Europe, occupies the largest share in the global alcohol ethoxylates market. A significant rise in the home & personal care industry, surging demand for low-rinse and low-foam detergents, and the expanding pharmaceuticals industry in this region have bolstered its market growth.The key industry participants include Evonik Industries AG, E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, BASF SE, Clariant AG, AkzoNobel N.V., Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., Dow Chemical Company, Huntsman International LLC, SABIC, and Royal Dutch Shell plc.In September 2020, Evonik Industries AG, the leading German specialty chemicals manufacturer, introduced its new ELUCARE® TD brand for specialty alcohols that function as high-performance intermediates in the production of surfactants, special solvents, resins, lubricants, special esters, and paints & coatings.

Do Make Say Think + Hood
Do Make say Think
Do Make Say Think formed in 1995-96 in Toronto, Canada. Founded by two pairs of musicians with backgrounds as various as punk, jazz and industrial metal, the group has included a number of additional musicians over the years contributing to both live shows and recordings. Core members Charles Spearin (bass, keyboards, trumpet) and Ohad Benchetrit (guitar, saxophone) first played together in high school and birthed the Toronto punk band Dead Lemmings in the late 80's; both have gone on to work in sound production and engineering in Toronto. The other founding pair, Justin Small (guitar) and James Payment (drums), are seasoned downtown rock players who've done time in a long list of bands, among them the post-industrial rock group Malhavoc. During the summer of 1995, these players came together to score the music for a Canadian youth dramatic production, sequestering themselves in an empty school room for rehearsals.
The four basic verbs 'Do', 'Make', 'Say', 'Think' adorned the walls of said classroom, and these elementary-level educational placards were adopted as a project name for the nascent group. Over the course of the following year, Do Make Say Think confined themselves to a rehearsal room in the basement of University of Toronto radio station CIUT, joined by now-departed member Jason MacKenzie (drums, keyboards, electronics) and occasional contributor Robert Brasz (synths, treatments, effects). Equipped with an 8-track recorder, the station facilities allowed them to track various pieces as they evolved; combined with home tape experimentation, the band began to knit together scintillating instrumental soundscapes that combined rock riffing with dub and psych elements. Using the CIUT studios, as well as the studios of a local art college, their eponymous first album was completed in 1997, with all members participating in the splicing and mixing of final tracks. Far from compromising the process, this collective approach to composition-production yielded a stunning debut record that teems with exuberant sonic texture and a brilliant blend of highly-structured and improvisational parts. Each song is finely-honed, while the record as a whole is an undeniably unified effort. The band self-released the album on CD in a run of 500; Constellation co-owners Ian & Don heard the record in early 1998, were duly blown away, and offered to re-release it as their first non-Montral-based recording. The album came out on Constellation in the summer of that year to international acclaim.
Having enlisted additional horn players (pulled from the ranks of Toronto jazz experimentalists Guh) for their live performances this year, Do Make Say Think are moving towards the increasing employment of a brass section in their new material; the live results have thus far promised a new compositional maturity and a truly genre-defying approach to instrumental rock.
Hood are an integral part of Domino's geographic series of UK music, beautifully reflecting in picture and sound their West Yorkshire roots. Although their music has a natural homespun quality that aligned them with the early nineties lo-fi movement, they are now in a much less easily categorised area; blending an almost neo-acoustic folkiness with harder-edged electronics. But Hood remain instinctive, trying to make something beautiful from what is close at hand. If you haven't heard them in a while you ought to, and this outsider recommends you start their new album, Cold House.


Defendant, a dentist, gave claimant two root canals and fitted her with three crowns. Claimant then treated with another doctor who informed her that her crowns were entirely porcelain instead of porcelain on gold as they should have been.
To what damages is claimant entitled to for receiving a superior medical product with only a minor cost difference?
There is nothing special about medical procedures in this area. As the defect was substantial but the breach was not, claimant is not entitled to a complete return of her fee. Since required her crowns to be replaced over this would be "grossly and unfairly out of proportion to the good to be obtained," her damages must just be the difference in value. The only value lost is that the porcelain crowns only required a cement $10 cheaper.
Claimant is entitled to the difference in value given to her, or $10 here. Judgment to claimant for $10.


Dirty Decisions: Is there a pharmacist in the house?
Yes. after I wrote to Representative Joseph Bruno a few years ago asking for his help regarding a summary judgment by Judge Ellen Gorman in my son's medical malpractice case, essentially denying him a trial and telling him "You lose," Bruno resigned. Soon after that, I discovered his ties to the medical community. Well, a recent investigation reveals other legislators and their spouses who benefited from State of Maine contracts from 2003 to 2010 totaling about $235 million... contracts not required to be disclosed because the receiving party was the legislator's company and not the individual legislator; how sick is that?
In the story there's a link to a chart telling who and how much.

An Angry Look at the Current State of the Metroid Series
August 10 2016 by Dennis Wyman
Just as relevant now as five years ago. Image credits paperfiasco
The Metroid series just celebrated its 30th anniversary this weekend, and if you're like me, you were probably caught off guard. Unlike other critically and commercially successful franchises Nintendo has been milking every possible dollar out of, there hasn't been a new Metroid game in six years. It's been even longer since we've had an installment that really focused on exploration – once the hallmark characteristic of the series. And barring the upcoming Federation Force spinoff, there's nothing else on the horizon. Why is this? How did we end up here? Why did Samus get relegated to red-headed stepchild status despite having a fanbase that's turned almost every one of her adventures into a million copy seller?

Summer Games Done Quick Taught Me What it Truly Means to be a Gamer
July 16 2016 by Steven Rollins
I have never been one for trying to rush through a game, operating under the "it's not the destination, but the journey" philosophy. It was inconceivable to me that people would want to beat a 10+ hour game in a matter of half an hour. Over the past week however, I spent every free moment I had glued to my computer screen, watching intently as yet another childhood favorite was conquered in a what seemed like the blink of an eye. It was only my second time watching a Games Done Quick marathon, but I was simply awestruck.
A Personal Tribute to 30 Years of Zelda
February 24 2016 by Hylianola
Thirty years ago, the video game series The Legend of Zelda debuted on the Nintendo Famicom in Japan, coming West in 1987. Zelda is... the most wondrous and enrapturing work of art I've ever experienced in my life. While I've only been a fan for half its history, it almost instantly became not only my favorite video game franchise, but a treasure map of games that I just had to find some way to play and beat over several years.
How the Classic Pokémon Gold Version Unleashed My Imagination and Redefined Who I Am
September 29 2015 by Colin McIsaac
"Welcome to the world of Pokémon," I heard. In truth I deciphered these words from a few crude pixels on a strangely-upscaled Game Boy Advance screen, but to the little boy playing Pokémon Gold Version for the first time, they meant something. I was no longer sitting on my blue-striped couch trying desperately to find the right balance of soft light and harsh glare from the lamp above to illuminate the screen. These words and the three square waves accompanying them had served their purpose so well that they transcended their very existence. They were my transports to Johto, the world of Pokémon, and Professor Oak made sure I felt welcome.

Most Wanted: Smash Bros. DLC edition. Part Two
July 02 2015 by FunAtParties
With the announcement that we can now vote our favorites characters in Sm4sh, many have rushed to claim one of the sacred available roster spots for their personal favorites. Sadly, not everyone can get it in, so yesterday (well technically today) I attempted to convince you on 4 characters that I think should be on the roster, but those were just 8 through 5. Today I'm going to show you the best of the best.
Most Wanted: Smash Bros. DLC Edition Part One
Since the announcement that Sm4sh would be getting DLC AND that we would be able to vote or favorite characters in, the internet has gone mad trying to make their wildest dreams come true and get their personal favorites in, and seeing as though I am part of this internet, I am no different. Sadly many of my top choices are either controversial or just not that popular, so I'm here to try and convince you, whoever you are, to support me, whoever I am, in my cause to get these super-awesome, super-deserving characters in Sm4sh! So let's get started for fun's sake!

Senate Appropriations Committee's Commitment To Alzheimer's Research Wins Plaudits
Cure Alzheimer's Fund Urges Congress to Pass Bill This Fall
Boston—Praising lawmakers for recognizing the importance of finding a cure for Alzheimer's Disease, Cure Alzheimer's Fund commended the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee for passing promising legislation with strong funding and language backing Alzheimer's research.
"We applaud the Committee for their support and call for more research and discovery in the field of Alzheimer's," said Tim Armour, President and CEO of Cure Alzheimer's Fund. "With 5.2 million Americans currently battling this devastating disease and many Baby Boomers reaching the at-risk age, research is critical to better understand Alzheimer's in hopes of finding more effective treatments and preventing this disease."
The appropriations are part of the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and other related agencies, for the 2010 Fiscal Year.
Advancements in the research could lessen the growing burden— both financial and emotional— that Alzheimer's puts on society. In 2004, 25 percent of the combined Medicare and Medicaid expenses (about $122 billion) went to Alzheimer's care. Alzheimer's alone could single-handedly bankrupt Medicare and Medicaid within the next decade if left unchecked.
Dedicated to Alzheimer's research, Cure Alzheimer's Fund has set forth an ambitious and aggressive national research strategy setting a 10-year goal for the development of effective therapies and discovery of an eventual cure for this devastating disease.
"When President Kennedy challenged our nation to land on the moon by the end of the 1960s, we met that challenge with fervor. Finding a cure for Alzheimer's is no less daunting, but with the advances in research and technology it is in our reach," said Armour. "This renewed dedication and commitment to research from Senate appropriators is a encouraging step toward reaching that goal.
"We urge the full Senate and House to remain supportive of this bill as it moves through the legislative process this fall," Armour continued. "It could help change the lives of the millions of Americans and their families struggling with this devastating disease today."

Truth, Beauty, and Oliver Sacks

Everything in Its Place: First Loves and Last Tales
by Oliver Sacks
Knopf, 274 pp., $26.95
Dominique Nabokov
Oliver Sacks, City Island, the Bronx, May 1988
Readers of The New York Review, to which he was a regular contributor over many years, need no introduction to Oliver Sacks. A number of the pieces in Everything in Its Place, his second posthumous volume, which collects published and unpublished work, first appeared in these pages, as did a number of those in the first posthumous Sacks volume, The River of Consciousness (2017), which is dedicated to Robert Silvers, his editor at the Review. Everything in Its Place is, in some senses, a slighter book than that one, which Sacks himself put together before his death. The pieces in it are generally shorter, some barely more than fragments, but this is not a mere Sacks smorgasbord: it has a distinct identity of its own and covers a remarkably wide range of topics, none of them unknown to his regular readers, but unified by a particular tone. To describe it as valedictory would be to oversimplify, and many of the pieces were written long before Sacks's death in 2015, but consciously or unconsciously the editors have fashioned the book in such a way that we are left with an image of the author that is extraordinarily touching—not lacking in his habitual energy and driven curiosity, but somehow vulnerable, even fragile.
There are echoes here across the whole of Sacks's voluminous oeuvre—tales differently told, glancing allusions to people encountered elsewhere, fragments of autobiography. The book is divided into three sections: First Loves, Clinical Tales, and Life Continues. The opening piece, "Water Babies," a celebration of swimming in the author's life, is exquisitely composed, a prose poem in all but name, and a reverie so euphonious that it might well lend itself to musical setting in the manner of Knoxville: Summer of 1915, Samuel Barber's superb rendition of the opening of James Agee's A Death in the Family:
We were all water babies, my brothers and I. Our father, who was a swimming champ (he won the fifteen-mile race off the Isle of Wight three years in succession) and loved swimming more than anything else, introduced each of us to the water when we were scarcely a week old…. We never "learned" to swim.
We see the infant Sacks already at one with the natural world. Water is his natural habitat: he sees that his father, "huge and cumbersome on land," becomes transformed, "graceful, like a porpoise," and he himself—self-conscious, nervous, and also rather clumsy—is likewise transformed:
Swimming gives me a sort of joy, a sense of well-being so extreme that it becomes at times a sort of ecstasy…. The mind can float free, become spellbound, in a state like a trance. I have never known anything so powerfully, so healthily euphoriant—and I am addicted to it, fretful when I cannot swim.
Sacks mentions, almost casually,…

Self–efficacy reflects confidence in the ability to exert control over one's own motivation, behavior, and social environment.
When a woman in technology, or frankly in any industry, has self-efficacy it can help motivate her in through situations where her confidence might be undermined by the corporate culture or individual management styles.
The number of women in technology leaving the field mid-career is astronomical; a phenomenon that company leaders are just beginning to come aware. When interviewed as to their motivation for leaving the most common reason is the belief that they are not valued, do not feel like they can be successful or in some other way feel left out of the company culture.
However, when looking deeper into the women leaders who persevere, we find a trend towards self-efficacy. Women who don't solely rely on the support or encouragement from those around them to feel successful but rather are capable of digging deeper and believing in their own ability to succeed.
The good news is that, although some are born with self-efficacy, it is a trait that can be nurtured and taught.
Psychology contributor Kendra Cherry, Psychology Expert explores self-efficacy in her article: Self Efficacy: What is Self Efficacy? She shares that it is most often developed at a young age, however, learning the behavior does not stop once you reach adulthood. Kendra shares information gathered from psychologist Albert Bandura. According to Bandura, there are four major sources of self-efficacy.
"The most effective way of developing a strong sense of efficacy is through mastery experiences," Bandura explained. Performing a task successfully strengthens our sense of self-efficacy. However, failing to adequately deal with a task or challenge can undermine and weaken self-efficacy.
Bandura also asserted that people could be persuaded to believe that they have the skills and capabilities to succeed. Consider a time when someone said something positive and encouraging that helped you achieve a goal. Getting verbal encouragement from others helps people overcome self-doubt and instead focus on giving their best effort to the task at hand.
Our own responses and emotional reactions to situations also play an important role in self-efficacy. Moods, emotional states, physical reactions, and stress levels can all impact how a person feels about their personal abilities in a particular situation. A person who becomes extremely nervous before speaking in public may develop a weak sense of self-efficacy in these situations.
Each article is written by a different author and published on a variety of sites but all site Bandura's research and each also offer the good news that self-efficacy can be taught.
Accept Self-Doubt…but Put it in its Place Managing your self-doubt is just one more way to keep "I think I can't" thoughts from derailing your success. When self-defeating thoughts bubble up, accept them as part of the process and move on. These types of thoughts don't necessarily reflect your true capabilities. The key is to not let them stop you from moving forward.
The point is that although having role models, mentors and fans are an excellent way of developing confidence and a belief that you can be successful even in a world dominated by men; when the going gets really tough you have to dig down deep and find your own inner strength and motivation to succeed.
Past performance is an indicator of future success. Think back on the hurdles you have overcome in the past. This is especially important for women in technology who have often been the only female in class, on projects, and in the workplace for most of their career. You have overcome and you will succeed again.
How can you create virtuous cycles that build momentum? How do you avoid vicious cycles that sap your strength? You build a foundation for self-efficacy. Your build your foundation with three pillars.
There is one more step on the journey to self-efficacy and that involve forgiveness or self-compassion. In the article, The Secret to Improving Self Confidence, the author Eric Barker starts with these startling words: "stop lying to yourself that you are so awesome." While shocking – he does have a point. We have all had our valleys in life, hopefully, errors that we have learned from. But Barker's perspective is that we need to face our imperfections and offer a little compassion.
… Self-compassion was clearly associated with steadier and more constant feelings of self-worth than self-esteem. We also found that self-compassion was less likely than self-esteem to be contingent on particular outcomes like social approval, competing successfully, or feeling attractive. When our sense of self-worth stems from being a human being intrinsically worthy of respect—rather than being contingent on obtaining certain ideals—our sense of self-worth is much less easily shaken.
No matter how you get there – when you look in the mirror, focus on the positives rather than the negatives. Remember your successes and have confidence that you will again be successful in the future.
