However, getting to this stage is no simple feat. It takes an enormous amount of work and effort plus tracking. By implementing sales funnel software, such as the platform built by Brunson, you can definitely cut down the headache, but there's still lots of work to be done. Copy needs to be written, tracking pixels need to be installed and email sequences need to be created. But that's what it takes to succeed.
Why? Because we looked at the percentages and we know that those percentages are correct. So the funnel does work. You just aren't making money because why? Because the cost per click for advertising is too high. So you have one of two choices. You can either try to get the cost per click down on the ad or you can try to raise the conversion rate somewhere on your funnel. But based on the math that we just did, this is a very, very high converting funnel based on the benchmarks, right?

The truth? People are smart. They're not simply going to buy anything from anyone unless they feel there's an immense amount of value to be had there. Thus, your funnel needs to built that value and bake it in through a variety of means. But most importantly, you have to create a strong bond with your prospect, and that happens by being relatable, honest and transparent in your email warming sequence.
What is digital marketing funnel
Do you have an older list that you suspect has mostly decayed? Create an engaging opt-in message and send it to your old list encouraging contacts who wish to re-opt-in -- promising to remove all contacts who don't respond. Though it might seem counterintuitive to remove folks from your email lists in order to grow them, emailing only engaged contacts could improve your deliverability and increase the odds of your email getting shared with those outside your current contacts database.

Every ESP will give you tools to create an opt-in form for your site. Generally speaking, the less information you ask for (at this initial stage, at least), the better. The more information you ask for, the less likely your prospect is to complete the process. You'll obviously need to ask for an email address, and I also highly recommended that you ask for a first name so you can personalize your emails. However, asking for any information beyond these two fields can decrease conversion rates significantly without adding much valuable data.
My name is Jamie Spencer and I have spent the past 5 years building money making blogs. After growing tired of the 9-5, commuting and never seeing my family I decided that I wanted to make some changes and launched my first blog. Since then I have launched lots of successful niche blogs and after selling my survivalist blog I decided to teach other people how to do the same.
Now that you're all set up to starting collecting emails, the fun part begins (when I say 'fun', I actually mean 'hard'). If your site receives a good amount of traffic and you have a truly compelling offer, this shouldn't be too difficult. However, if you're like most business owners, you'll need to look outside your own audience to start building your list.
Visitors to your website might overlook the call to sign up that you have at the top of every page, but it's harder to ignore a lightbox or pop-up. Scroll boxes pop up on visitors' screens after they've scrolled down a certain length of the page. The box encourages them to sign up for your email list. They can be effective for encouraging a user who's already shown interest in your content (by staying on the page long enough to scroll) to sign up for your email list.

Your email list, on the other hand, is yours, free and clear. Using your website and social media to attract visitors and followers, and then encouraging them to sign up for your email list gives you the opportunity to contact your prospects at any point in the future, with any kind of messaging you want; and you're not bound by search engine rankings or social media algorithms.

In a recent conversation I had with Perry Belcher, co-founder of Native Commerce Media, he told me that you also need to train your prospects to click on links. For example, you could have them click on a link of what interests them or link them to a blog post or eventually to a product or service that you're selling, but you need to train them to build a habit of clicking on those links from the very beginning.
Customer reviews are the "social proof" that encourages people to join in on something. It's one thing for you to tell people to sign up for a campaign, but it's another thing for your happiest customers to say it too. Publish your best reviews from communities like Yelp right to your website. This adds genuine value to your landing pages when people are on the fence about submitting their contact information.

Olive Garden Unveils Restaurant Remodel Initiative Inspired by Italy
Kissimmee Olive Garden among the more than 400 restaurants being remodeled through June 2015
ORLANDO, Fla. (Oct. 1, 2010) –Today, Olive Garden announced that more than half of its 721 restaurants will undergo an interior design refresh, inspired by the timeless warmth of farmhouses in Tuscany, Italy.
Within the newly remodeled restaurants, guests will find updated décor including new tables, chairs and booths that emanate the warm, rustic tones of a Tuscan Farmhouse. Other updates include modernized window treatments and updated decor, which together create a cleaner, more polished design. In addition, the refreshed bar area reflects a true, Tuscan-inspired space, with a more modern and sophisticated feel.
"We believe the Farmhouse design reinforces our vision by creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that enhances the overall experience at Olive Garden," said Valerie Insignares, executive vice president of operations for Olive Garden. "Within the next few years guests will enjoy the same genuine Tuscan look and feel inside every one of our family of local restaurants across North America.
For more than a decade, Olive Garden chefs, General Managers and restaurant team members travel to Olive Garden's Culinary Institute of Tuscany (CIT) to learn Italian cooking techniques and to draw inspiration for menu items, promotional entrees and restaurant décor. It is at the CIT where members of the Olive Garden family learn the secrets of great Italian foods from Italian Master Chefs. Secrets include how to choose the freshest ingredients to create Italian-inspired entrees, how to layer flavors to produce the perfect Italian aroma and taste, and how to pair Italian wines with specific Italian dishes and sauces to enhance the dining experience.
"Each year, our Olive Garden development chefs travel throughout Italy to gain inspiration from the latest Italian culinary trends and traditions so they can bring the taste of Italy home to our guests," said Terry Stanley, executive vice president of marketing for Olive Garden. "The Tuscan Farmhouse remodel is an essential element in completing the genuine Italian dining experience at Olive Garden."
This restaurant design refresh also demonstrates Olive Garden's dedication to supporting local communities. In celebration of the newly renovated restaurants, Kissimmee will host complimentary wine tasting events that are open to the public on October 5th, 6th, 12th and 13th from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. Led by Olive Garden wine specialists, these interactive events will further educate guests on Italian wines including their origin, body style, aroma, flavor/finish and food pairings. To receive more information on the wine tasting event, guests can visit www.Facebook.com/OliveGarden, visit www.OliveGarden.com/remodel or sign up for the "Our Family Table" e-newsletter at www.OliveGarden.com.
About Olive Garden:
Olive Garden is the leading restaurant in the Italian dining segment with more than 700 restaurants, more than 85,000 employees and $3 billion in annual sales. Olive Garden is a part of the Darden family of restaurants (NYSE: DRI), the world's largest company-owned and operated full-service restaurant company.

Clémence Dumas-Côté est une poétesse, artiste et performeuse québécoise née à Montréal en 1986.

Biographie

Formation
Clémence Dumas-Côté naît en 1986 à Montréal. Elle publie des textes dans les revues Steak Haché et Dialogis avant de remporter en 2005 le Concours intercollégial de poésie avec son poème « Le plan de décharge ». Le jury souligne le travail effectué sur la forme et sur l'imagerie ainsi que la tonalité musicale et énigmatique du poème. Elle est alors étudiante au Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles.

Dumas-Côté complète en 2011 des études en interprétation à l'École nationale de théâtre du Canada. En 2016, durant ses études de deuxième cycle en littérature française et création à l'Université de Sherbrooke, elle crée un zine intitulé c en v : les jambes qui gagne le prix Meilleur fanzine au Gala des prix Expozine. L'année suivante, elle termine sa maîtrise. Son mémoire comporte un essai sur les œuvres de Sophie Calle et une série de cinq récits poétiques ayant pour titre Cinq photos à te montrer. Deux d'entre eux, « Nita Monk » et « Blanche-Ghyslaine », sont publiés en 2017 dans la revue Moebius.

Activité artistique
En 2017, elle publie aux Herbes rouges son premier recueil de poésie, L'alphabet du don, que la revue Lettres québécoises fait figurer en décembre dans sa sélection de livres incontournables de l'année. Ses brefs poèmes de style formaliste explorent l'altérité en établissant une dualité du « je » et du « tu », qui se confondent l'un avec l'autre. Le recueil est notamment animé par des tensions entre la déconstruction et la reconstitution, et entre la perte et le don.

Quelques mois plus tard, l'écrivaine organise le spectacle Stances à dix dans le cadre du Festival de la poésie de Montréal, puis elle est invitée au Cabaret des brumes du Festival international de la littérature.

En 2018, elle fait partie du jury du Grand concours littéraire de l'Université de Sherbrooke et elle participe à la troisième édition de la Nuit de la poésie francophone à Mexico en compagnie de Pascal Rambert. Elle prend également part à la 36e édition du Marché de la poésie de Paris et au spectacle La volière est un oiseau de milliards de têtes, qui est organisé dans le cadre du Festival international de la littérature.

Son second recueil de poésie, La femme assise, paraît aux Herbes rouges en 2019. Dumas-Côté s'y inspire de l'œuvre de la photographe Francesca Woodman, à laquelle elle ne fait cependant pas nommément référence. La poétesse met en scène un dialogue entre deux antagonistes : « la femme assise » et le chœur des « poèmes ». Ce recueil formaliste est caractérisé par une forme théâtrale et un style incarné. Il est axé autour d'une réflexion sur la création et l'écriture, et il attire l'attention sur les objets, les corps et l'extériorisation des mouvements intérieurs.

Au fil des ans, Clémence Dumas-Côté réalise des performances artistiques, crée des zines cousus à la main, prend part à des lectures et à des événements littéraires, et conçoit et anime des ateliers d'écriture et d'interprétation. En 2019, elle organise notamment la série d'ateliers créatifs Les Attaques poétiques. Les textes qui y sont écrits sont par la suite affichés dans l'espace public.

Entre 2017 et 2019, elle écrit des poèmes et des textes en prose pour les revues Moebius, Estuaire, Lettres québécoises, Les Écrits et Zinc.

MTV Japan (MTVジャパン) è la versione giapponese dell'omonimo canale televisivo statunitense, controllata da MTV Networks, e lanciato il 24 dicembre 1992. Il canale è visibile sia in TV via cavo che in digitale terrestre su Sky Perfect TV!, Sky Perfect TV! 2 e IPTV.

Storia
MTV Japan originariamente era un blocco di musica su TBS (JORX-TV) dal 1989 al 1992.

Nel 1992 Music Channel Inc., acquisì la licenza di Viacom trasmettendo con il nome MTV. Broadcast cominciò sui servizi CS analogico e Skyport, con PerfecTV! nel 1996 e con DirecTV nel 1997. VJs da quel tempo incluse Marc Panther e Ken Lloyd.

Nel 1998, il canale musicale fu annullato dalla licenza con Viacom a causa dell'alto canone. Di conseguenza, dal 1999 la stazione cambiò nome (Vibe) trasmettendo contenuti di musica occidentale e prodotti musicali nazionali. Senza il marchio MTV dietro di essa, la concorrenza di altri canali come Space Shower TV e Sony Music Japan Viewsic ha portato la stazione ad essere acquisito da H&Q Asia Pacific nel 2000.

Anche nel 2000, MTV Broadcasting Japan, Inc., una società formata da gruppi come CSK e SEGA, acquisì la licenza di trasmissione di cielo PerfecTV!. Tuttavia, la società non trasmise mai con il nome MTV; cambiò quindi il suo nome a M-BROS e trasmise sotto quel nome su DirecTV e cielo PerfecTV! fino al 30 aprile 2002.

A seguito di questo tentativo di utilizzare il nome MTV, Viacom ancora una volta fece un contratto con il canale e creò un revival di MTV Japan dal 1º gennaio 2001, questa volta sotto copertura della MTV Networks e con il sostegno del capitale MTV. Music Channel Inc. nel frattempo cambiò il suo nome in "MTV Japan, Inc.". Il primo video girato fu "Mind Travel".

Il nome Vibe svolge diverse attività in Internet, che sono state scorporate dal canale come VIBE, Inc. ed è stata integrata in questa società dalla Bandai Networks nel 2005.

Vi è una notevole differenza del revival di MTV Japan se confrontato con il vecchio. Il vecchio MTV Japan era incentrato su artisti stranieri, considerando che l'attuale MTV Japan si concentra su artisti nazionali. Di conseguenza, il canale ha attirato critiche da sostenitori del vecchio MTV Japan. Tuttavia, nel marzo del 2006, la rete ha attirato 6.000.000 di spettatori, rendendo il secondo canale più visto della Space Shower TV e portandolo a un successo finanziario globale.

Infine alcuni artisti musicali come Ayumi Hamasaki e Tohoshinki hanno ricevuto numerosi riconoscimenti da parte di MTV Japan.

Programmi
MTV Japan trasmette un gran varietà di programmi a differenza della sua controparte americana. Tende a trasmettere video musicali piuttosto che reality o programmi di musica trasmettendo spettacoli come The Hills, Laguna Beach, ecc.

Memphis is built on partnerships, and there's no other partnership under way with as wide-ranging an impact of a re-imagined and rebooted riverfront.
As board chair for the Memphis River Parks Partnership and former board chair for Memphis in May International Festival, I have a unique perspective on the plans for Tom Lee Park. And it is unequivocal that there is no conflict between the continued success of our festival and creating the most spectacular park on the Mississippi River.
The progress and momentum of Memphis are built on partnerships, and there's no other partnership underway with as wide-ranging an impact of a re-imagined and rebooted riverfront. It's not only our most visible and most valuable real estate, but its value remains to be tapped in a way that can grow our economy, expand the tourism industry, create jobs and spark new downtown development.
Because of it, this is a decision that is not either-or but both. As a centerpiece of a transformed riverfront, a remade Tom Lee Park — with Memphis in May as a key user — makes everything downtown more valuable and achieves our goal of multiplying the impact of every investment that we make. Already, just the prospect of a new Tom Lee Park is getting Memphis on the list of "must visit" cities for the next year — and that's not even factoring in the positive impact of a new environment and enhanced experience for everyone attending Memphis in May.
The needs of the festival have been a high priority for The Partnership even before we began the design process. Input from Memphis in May shaped the next steps in the design process, but it was only the first of many meetings and communications with festival officials to make sure the park would not only respond to their needs but exceed them.
That is exactly what we have managed to do.
To demonstrate our commitment as a partner, we have spent more than $100,000 for additional design and planning work as a result of Memphis in May's comments. As a result, Tom Lee Park has been designed with Memphis in May's specifications in mind, and because of it, the park includes three huge lawns for festival stages.
In addition, in support of Memphis in May, there are relocated utilities, new access roads, better load-in/load-out and strategically located hard scapes. The design will reduce damage to the park from the festival and we expect it to reduce the remediation costs that Memphis in May pays every year — this year it was more than $60,000. In other words, the design of Tom Lee Park means that the jewel of a park will enhance a jewel of a festival.
As Mayor Jim Strickland accurately points out, Memphis is on a roll with momentum we've not seen in more than a decade. A renewed riverfront responds directly to his "build up, not out" mantra and also to Memphis 3.0's mandate to leverage undervalued city anchors for economic and population growth. We applaud his leadership for this historic opportunity to turn 95 years of plans about a great riverfront into the reality of one of the best riverfronts in the country.
I remember the early days of Memphis in May when its founders reminded those of us on the board that they began the festival to improve the city's national image. They reminded us to leverage our unique assets like music and barbecue as competitive advantages to expand our economy, to break down walls between Memphians and to rebrand our city.
Those are the same motivations that guide us at the Partnership today as we work with the public to transform our riverfront into an active, exciting and more vibrant place 365 days a year rather than 10 days in May.
As part of our planning process, we have held workshops, taken surveys, and convened working groups. From these, one thing is clear: When we consider what we want Memphis to be in its third century and what best represents who we are and who we want to be, it is Tom Lee Park that points the way to the future.
Ray Pohlman is board chairman of the Memphis River Parks Partnership.

Q: error integrating ggvis into shiny I am trying to learn how to replace static plots in shiny with ggvis plots.    With the following ui.R and server.R files, I can get a perfectly fine working shiny app when my plot output is base-R or ggplot.   I get the following error when I try to use ggvis.
Error in handlers$add(handler, key, tail) : Key / already in use
I have tried changing the location of my files to a different directory, clearing my global environment, etc.  Nothing seems to work thus far.
I have tried to reproduce the most minimal reproducible example.   The following is reproducing the error on my machine.   I am inputting the data from a csv file stored in the same folder as the ui.R and server.R  .    I have added the dput() of some data that can be used to reproduce the csv file.
Here is the example:
ui.R
library(shiny)
library(dplyr)
library(ggvis)

# Define UI
shinyUI(pageWithSidebar(

  # Application title
  headerPanel("Cricket"),

  sidebarPanel(

    selectInput("hteam",
                label = "Home Team",
                choices = c("All Teams", "Australia", "England"), selected = "All teams"),

    br()

  ),

  mainPanel(
    plotOutput("CrickPlot")
  )

))

server.R
library(shiny)
library(dplyr)
library(ggvis)

shinyServer(function(input, output) {

  #### Input raw data
  df <- read.csv("mydf.csv", stringsAsFactors=F, header=T)

  df1 <- reactive({

    hometeam <-  input$hteam

  if(input$hteam != "All Teams"){  df <- df %>% filter(team==hometeam) }

  df %>%
    group_by(player) %>%
    summarize(totalruns=sum(runs,na.rm=T), totalinns=n() )

  })

####

output$CrickPlot <- renderPlot({

    tmp <- df1()

    tmp$id <- 1:nrow(tmp)

       all_values <- function(x) {
         if(is.null(x)) return(NULL)
         row <- tmp[tmp$id == x$id, ]
         paste("Name: ", tmp$player[x$id],
               "
Country: ",
               tmp$team[x$id],
               "
Total runs: ",
               tmp$totalruns[x$id])
       }

    tmp %>%
               ggvis(x = ~totalinns,
                     y = ~totalruns,
                     size := input_slider(10, 100),
                     size.hover := 200,
                     opacity := input_slider(0, 1),
                     key := ~id) %>%
         layer_points() %>%
         add_tooltip(all_values, "hover")

#  x <- df1()
#  plot(x$totalruns, x$totalinns)

})

}
)

The ggvis as coded here is a little simpler than what I am using in reality.  However, this still reproduces the error.  If I summarize my df and try to make a ggvis chart outside of shiny, this code works perfectly well.    Also, just for illustration purposes, the last two lines that come after the  hashmarks will produce a scatterplot in base-R if all the ggvis stuff is removed.  Therefore, I think it's something to do with the ggvis inside the shiny app.
Here is the mydf data for this example:
dput(mydf)

structure(list(player = c("CB Fry", "CB Fry", "G Boycott", "G Boycott",
                          "G Boycott", "G Boycott", "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater",
                          "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater", "MJ Slater",
                          "SK Warne", "SK Warne", "SK Warne", "SK Warne", "SK Warne", "SK Warne"
), team = c("England", "England", "England", "England", "England",
            "England", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia",
            "Australia", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia",
            "Australia", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia", "Australia"
), runs = c(1L, 50L, 68L, 31L, 30L, 23L, 26L, 16L, 123L, 1L,
            45L, 43L, 28L, 10L, 15L, 2L, 0L, 14L, 2L, NA)), row.names = c(NA,
                                                                          -20L), .Names = c("player", "team", "runs"), class = "data.frame")

Thanks in advance.  I tried to make this as minimal as possible whilst showing all possible details relevant to the error.

A: In server.R
  output$ggvisplot_ui <- renderUI({
    ggvisOutput("ggvisplot")
  })

  dl <- mtcars
  dl %>%
    ggvis(~mpg, ~wt) %>%
    layer_points() %>%
    bind_shiny("ggvisplot")

In ui.R
  mainPanel(
    htmlOutput("ggvisplot_ui")
  )

Search in Perth for remains of murdered James I
A monument marks the area where James I's remains are believed to be buried
A plan to search for the tomb of a Scottish king buried in Perth nearly 600 years ago has been unveiled.
It will be part of a project to create a major visitor attraction in the city using virtual reality to tell the story of James I and the Stewart monarchs.
James I was assassinated in Perth in 1437 and later buried at the Charterhouse monastery.
But the priory was destroyed in the reformation 100 years later and no-one is sure of the grave's exact location.
The monastery where he was buried was built on his orders and was part of his great plans for Perth.
Historians believe he wanted to create a complex on the scale of Westminster and move St Andrews University to the city to compete with Oxford.
Kidnap and regicide: Who was James I?
Dr Lucy Dean, from the University of the Highlands and Islands, told BBC Scotland: "Thirteen out of 18 of James' parliaments take place in Perth. He is centralising his government here.
"I'm not sure whether Perth would have been the capital but it was definitely in the running for being the capital. [His] murder halted that idea in its tracks."
James I was assassinated on 4 February 1437 while he was in the royal apartments at the Blackfriars monastery in Perth.
After a group of 30 conspirators were let into the building he tried to hide in a sewer, but he was trapped and killed by Sir Robert Graham.
A pub and sheltered housing accommodation now stands on the site of his death.

James I was stabbed to death in 1437
The area where he died is marked with a stone monument.
Archaeologist David Bowler, who explored the site in the 1980s, said he was "very excited" by the plans to find the king's tomb.
"It's something we've all been thinking about in Perth for many, many years," he said.
"We've all known about the Carthusian friary and we want to know a bit more about where it is."
Leaders of this project, which also includes a "virtual museum" depicting Medieval Perth, hope the city could benefit from the discovery of the tomb in the same way Leicester did when Richard III's remains were found.
Richard Oram, professor of Medieval history at the University of Stirling, said: "If we were to actually locate where the royal tomb was within this complex - we saw what that did to Leicester with the rediscovery of Richard III.
"A lot more people know Richard III than James I but we're looking to try and change that. So if we were successful that would be a huge added bonus to the project."

On December 1, Abishur Prakash launched a groundbreaking new book called "Next Geopolitics: The Future of World Affairs (Technology)." It looks at how new technologies like robotics, embryo editing, and food cloning will transform world affairs. Russia is featured multiple times in the book for its advances in artificial intelligence and robotics.
Russia is in a period of resurgence around the world.
In Central Asia and Eastern Europe, Russia is a founding member of the Eurasian Economic Union, an alternative economic bloc to the EU, that went into effect at the beginning of 2015 and includes over 180 million people. In Asia and North America, Russia is reportedly looking into re-opening military bases in Vietnam and Cuba, bases that were shut down at the beginning of the 21st century (although for now, Vietnam has rejected foreign bases on its soil). And, in the Middle East, Russia has held its first military drills with Egypt and has continued to fight terrorists in Syria.

Once again, Design Week has raised the issue of a 5000 contribution by the CSD to the Design Review. There was never a firm commitment to participate in the review, the word DW used was "poised" which was a fair description of our position.
The timescale of the pre-conference questionnaire precluded the CSD from having any meaningful input.
A major part of the questionnaire was geared towards the possibility of unifying existing bodies. We felt this was not the key issue. We, like the delegates to the Halifax Initiative, feel that the most important issue, to quote your 4 July article, "is getting design a much more influential role in Britain's future".
There was a missed opportunity to seek comments on this important subject via the questionnaire.
The CSD was unhappy with the brief for the conference and felt our comments were not fully understood by the organisers.
The society has plans to restructure its finances over the next eight years. However, we must not loose the benefits this brings and should only look at investing money in reviews and other projects where we can truly say that it offers value-for-money.
Using that criterion, we felt that we could not donate 5000 to the Design Review.
The CSD will always look at way of enhancing and publishing the undervalued skills of Britain's designers and I am sure that we and Design Week will find many areas of future co-operation.

WATCH: Coach disarms school gunman with a hug
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Surveillance video obtained first by KOIN 6 News shows the dramatic moment when Parkrose High School football coach Keanon Lowe disarmed a student carrying a loaded shotgun on campus.
Angel Granados-Diaz was 18 when he brought the gun to school on May 17.
The video — obtained Friday from the Multnomah County District Attorney's Office through a public records request — is the visual accompaniment to the story recounted by Lowe during a press conference earlier this year.
Lowe, who also works as a security guard at Parkrose, said he had been called to the fine arts building on campus to get a student. The surveillance video showed Granados-Diaz nearly cross paths with him in a hallway.
"I walk in there, I get to the classroom, I'm in the classroom for 15, 20 seconds — you know, I ask the teacher, 'Is the student here?'"
Granados-Diaz was only steps away with the shotgun tucked under his coat.
"The door opens — I'm within arm's length of the door, about 3 feet away from the door, and there's a kid with a gun, a shotgun," Lowe said. "In a fraction of a second, I analyzed everything really fast," he said. "I saw the look in his face, look in his eyes, looked at the gun, realized it was a real gun and then my instincts just took over."
Lowe said running away never crossed his mind.
"I lunged for the gun, put two hands on the gun. He had his two hands on the gun and obviously the kids are running out of the classroom and screaming."
The football coach handed the gun to another teacher then wrapped Granados-Diaz in a hug. As students ran for safety and police rushed to the scene, he remained focused on the teen in front of him.
"I felt compassion for him; a lot of times, especially when you're young, you don't realize what you're doing until it's over," he said.
Watch the full video below
The school went into lockdown and students were evacuated a short time later. Their parents met them off-campus. Emotions ran high as relieved parents comforted their shaken kids.
"I can see him coming into the room with just a gun in his hand. It was terrifying, it was truly terrifying," Parkrose High School senior Alexa Pope told KOIN 6 News at the time.
"We all hid, we hid under some clothes and stuff, too, just in case anything would happen," said student Annie Vong.
The Multnomah County District Attorney's Office said Granados-Diaz brought the gun, which was loaded with one round, to the school grounds during a mental health crisis.
Officials said he never pointed the gun at anyone other than himself. Investigators said he made suicidal statements to another person before bringing the gun on campus.
Granados-Diaz's lawyer said the teen was also drunk when he entered the school.
A Multnomah County court handed down a 36-month probation sentence under a pretrial agreement for one count of unlawful possession of a firearm in a public building and one count of unlawful possession of a loaded firearm in public.

Charlestown's Connections to Catholicism Run Deep
CATONSVILLE, MD (April 19, 2016) – Charlestown retirement community's deep connections to Catholicism, which bring together the past and present, provide a solid foundation for the company's daily mission to create a community that celebrates life.
Charlestown was founded with the conversion of the St. Charles Seminary. The Archdiocese of Baltimore was looking for a mission-aligned reuse of the beautiful and historic seminary property and to reinvigorate the local parish.
The Archdiocese connected with John Erickson, a former seminary student at Catholic University, who developed a vision to create a new type of service enriched senior housing to improve the quality of life for seniors and their families. The new retirement community, christened Charlestown in 1983, was the first Erickson Living continuing care retirement community and it was destined to change an industry and have positive impact on the lives of seniors and families.
John Erickson has often said his development of this property was "divinely inspired."
Charlestown incorporates the historic seminary building, monuments and history into the main aspects of the CCRC. Our Lady of the Angels Chapel sits on the Charlestown's 110-acre campus and is still owned and managed by the Sulpician Order. It is an historic landmark listed on the National registry of Historic Sites and it is a vibrant church for seniors, families and the local community.
Our Lady of the Angels is a magnificent example of Italian Renaissance architecture. Adorned with intricate mosaics, Carrara marble, and breathtaking stained-glass windows, the chapel is a veritable trove of classic Christian artwork. Steeped in Maryland's history, and rich in detail, Our Lady of the Angels is a true hidden treasure.
From its original founding in the nineteenth century to the present day, Our Lady of the Angels has served as both sanctuary and inspiration to the seminarians of St. Charles College, the thousands of residents of Charlestown, and the visitors who come to experience the beauty and serenity of the chapel firsthand.
Archbishop William E. Lori of the Archdiocese of Baltimore has officiated at Mass at Our Lady of the Angels. In addition, more than 100,000 people have attended weekly Sunday concerts held inside the chapel.
Two hundred priests who once taught at seminaries in Maryland and throughout the United States rest eternally in the Sulpician Cemetery's hallowed ground located on the Charlestown campus near Our Lady of the Angels Chapel. Rows of metal crosses – aligned in syncopation and nestled among trees -- mark the graves of the priests. Accompanying plaques note their names, geographic places of birth, days of birth and days of death. A total of 150 of the priests once taught at St. Charles College Seminary.
Father Leo Larrivee, the Pastor of Our Lady of the Angels, visits the cemetery daily as he takes his morning walks. Many of the priests taught him when he attended St. Charles College Seminary, eventually graduating in 1973. Father Larrivee is himself a resident of Charlestown.
Father Hector Joubert, S.S., who along with Mother Mary Lange founded the Oblates of Divine Providence, is buried in the cemetery. So is Father Oliverius Jenkins, who built the first Our Lady of the Angels Chapel in Ellicott City, MD.
Centuries of spiritual grace are ever-present. A central statue in the landscaped, one-acre cemetery is that of Sades Sapientiae, the Patroness of the Sulpicians. She seemingly stands vigil over her sons. A column at the cemetery's entrance gate is engraved with the words "Vivere Summe Deo in Christo Jesu." (English translation: "To Live Fully for God in Christ Jesus"). Their eloquence connects past with present.
Charlestown today is providing home health care to retired Sulpician priests who once taught at the St. Charles Seminary and who are now living at the neighboring Villa on the grounds of Little Sisters of the Poor.
Charlestown's management company, Erickson Living, supports Saint Ann Adult Day Services, which is part of The Catholic Charities. Employees participate in the Dragonboat races fundraiser every two years. They also participate in multiple events throughout the year: a holiday event where gifts are brought to all Saint Ann residents and Christmas songs are sung, a Spring planting day, and a caregivers breakfast. Significant funds have been raised through Erickson's overall participation since 2002.
Charlestown started its relationship with Cristo Rey Jesuit High School , a Catholic co-educational college preparatory school that empowers students in Baltimore City to succeed in college, work and life, started in 2008 with four student interns. Each year Charlestown has four students, some returning from the previous year and some new to the program. Six students have worked more than one year with Charlestown.
The future of Charlestown and its relationship to Catholicism is limitless.

This week sees the return of an intergalactic stalwart, along with some super-powered block-tastic heroes, among others!
Easily the biggest franchise name in popular culture is getting a new movie and game this season, as Star Wars: Battlefront II releases this week.
Battlefront II expands upon its multiplayer-only predecessor, adding a more comprehensive online mode and story campaign which ties directly into the Star Wars canon.
Up to 40 player matches can be unleashed online, and there will be split-screen offline co-op modes (thank goodness) for those who just want some fun with a buddy.
The Lego games are always fantastic, and the latest is the sequel to 2013's Lego Marvel Superheroes spin-off, which obviously went down fantastically with Lego and Marvel fans alike.
The sequel expands upon the previous game with a new open world, new characters, and scenarios and influences from recent Marvel movies over the past few years, but still maintains the winning-formula of the franchise — jumping, smashing blocks, solving puzzles, and beating up baddies.
The game also introduces a new four-player competitive super hero battling mode, allowing players to fight each other cooperatively in battle arenas.

Bonanza Creek Energy Well-Positioned to Weather Low Oil Prices
The company aims to grow its production by 50% this year, but things could change next year if the price of a barrel of crude averages less than $80.
Sarfaraz A. Khan
Nov 21, 2014 2:03 PM EST
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Deteriorating crude oil prices could slow down Bonanza CreekEnergy (BCEI) - Get Bonanza Creek Energy Inc Report , which has been growing its oil and gas production twice as fast as the industry's average. But the company's low-cost asset base puts it in a good position to weather a tough market.
Bonanza Creek increased production at an average annual rate of 84% between 2010 and 2013 and has a production growth target of almost 50% for 2014, says James Masters, investment relations manager at the company.
This growth, which comes mainly from the company's wells at Wattenberg field in Colorado's Niobrara formation, is significantly higher than the industry's average of around 20%, Bonanza Creek said in a November presentation, but it's in line with Colorado peers such as Bill Barrett (BBG) and PDC Energy (PDCE) - Get PDC Energy, Inc. Report .
Gabriele Sorbara, an analyst at Topeka Capital Markets, projects a 43% increase in the company's production in 2015. This will allow Bonanza Creek to grow its earnings to $2.26 a share in 2015 from $1.71 a share in 2013, Sorbara estimates in a Nov. 7 report.
Prolonged weakness in crude oil prices, which have fallen by more than 20% over the last three months, can hurt Bonanza Creek's performance, however.
Sorbara has said his projections are based on the assumption that the average price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate crude oil will be $86 in 2015, higher than the current price of about $76.
If the average price is less than $80 next year, Bonanza Creek's management is likely to reduce spending levels in order to maintain its financial strength, Sorbara said. Some oil and gas producers, such as Continental Resources (CLR) - Get Continental Resources, Inc. Report and ConocoPhillips (COP) - Get ConocoPhillips Report , already have announced cuts in capital spending for next year, while others, such as Halcon Resources (HK) , are scaling back drilling activity.
For Bonanza Creek, a reduction in spending could result in lower-than-expected growth. This year, Bonanza Creek expects capital expenditures of between $630 million and $680 million, up from $465.2 million last year. Masters did not provide any guidance for next year as the company is in the planning process, but he did say that Bonanza Creek will look to "preserve balance sheet flexibility" and "will adjust capital spending accordingly".
That said, Bonanza Creek is better positioned to weather a tough market in the future, since it is a low-cost oil and gas producer. The company's core operating area, the Wattenberg field at Niobrara, is one of the most economical oil and gas producing regions of the U.S., in terms of internal rate of returns, said a July Credit Suisse research report.
For Bonanza Creek, Niobrara assets could remain profitable even if WTI crude oil prices were to drop to between $60 and $65 a barrel, Sorbara wrote, although no exploration and production company will find it lucrative to drill near break even.
Masters says Bonanza Creek also benefits from having an "efficient operating program," which was reflected in 14% lower lease operating and general and administrative expenses per barrel of oil equivalents in the previous quarter, compared with last year. The company also has access to extensive surface infrastructure, such as pipeline networks, which allows Bonanza Creek to gather, process and transfer its products to the market.
Masters also said that the company's cash costs for production were just over $19 a barrel of oil equivalents, significantly lower than the company's average sales price, excluding the impact of derivatives, of $66.64 a barrel of oil equivalent. This translates into a healthy cash margin of more than 70%. The margin can act as a cushion in the future, softening a blow coming from lower oil prices.
At the time of publication, the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.

TheStreet Ratings team rates BONANZA CREEK ENERGY INC as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate BONANZA CREEK ENERGY INC (BCEI) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income, good cash flow from operations and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had generally high debt management risk by most measures that we evaluated."

What Belongs To The Digital World
What Belongs To The "Digital" World
This article was originally published in BW Businessworld - September, 2018 Source Link
The technologies that make these dramatic changes possible include the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud, mobile, bots, cognitive technologies, machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR)
Smart glasses being trialled by airline cabin crew to provide passengers personalized flying comfort. Courier companies enabling employees to find the product they need from expansive warehouses with the help of robots programmed to track and find goods. Agri companies deploying smart tractors that are empowered with camera vision to help tell the difference between a healthy plant and a weed…the examples are endless. But what they all point to is an obvious trend: businesses who want to stay ahead of the curve are doing everything they can to leverage digital technology.
On the surface, it is easy to believe that all it requires for an enterprise to become truly digital is to apply a few smart tweaks to the way it runs. But the changes are not superficial.
Making an enterprise digital, as we often hear, is more than implementing new digital technologies or merely modernizing existing ones. Rather, digital transformation is about changing every business process and function in such a way that a specific set of new technologies most relevant to a business are used to improve operational efficiencies to deliver tangible business value and stellar customer experiences.
In fact, I'd say that what lies at the heart of digital transformation journeys is a brand-new approach towards technology. An approach that alters how a business operates so that nearly everything it does is made more efficient by the considered use of smart technology. This includes employing smart operations to manufacture connected goods that inspire its customers to come back for more.
But what is driving this digital transformation in the first place? A few things. First, the relative ease with which companies can procure and deploy low-cost, low-barrier technology via the cloud. Second, the emergence of a new workforce accustomed to the ubiquity of consumer-facing digital tools that expects the experience these provide to be replicated in the office environment as well. Third a growing need to streamline ops in a highly competitive globalised world that requires the automation of mundane tasks. And fourth, the constant pressure for innovation to stand out in an increasingly crowded marketspace that is compelled to meet highly personalised end-user needs.
The technologies that make these dramatic changes possible include the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud, mobile, bots, cognitive technologies, machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR).
The real value in the adoption of these technologies lies in how they are delivered to users, whether they be employees or customers, to enable their interaction with an enriched, intuitive user interface. It is this experience that can make a huge difference in successful technology adoption and ROI within an organisation.
So, what is that really distinguishes real digital transformation? It is the capacity to positively impact all phases of a business value chain, in a profitable way, while improving user experience and introducing new innovative business models. For example, Disney uses its IoT-powered MagicBand worn by visitors to its Magic Kingdom to optimise ticket sales while also improving queue management. Featuring long-range radio whose signals can be picked up by Disney's queue management team, the bands help visitors gain fast access to Disney parks and attractions without having to stop to buy tickets repeatedly, helping improve both customer satisfaction and the company bottom line.
The MagicBand is said to have played a leading role in seeing Disney's parks and resorts revenue soar by 9 percent to $3.9 billion during the first quarter of 2015 as operating income rose 20 percent to $805 million.
But most of all, when an enterprise decides to go digital, what it needs is a clear roadmap. This is because the drive to go digital will be different for each business. While some could be propelled by a tech perspective, others could be guided by business requirements. What is crucial in both scenarios is that business processes are mapped to the maturity of technologies in any organisation. It is only then that a business can effectively draw a roadmap that is unique to its organisational transformation journey.
That's why a company may have the best data scientists heading its digital operations, but that doesn't ensure it will become a successful digital business. Instead, enterprises will become 'truly digital' companies when they have the 'right' digitally-driven approach informing the entire organisation. Such an approach ensures that everyone in the company is driven by a common goal to make products that are smart, connected, and responsive, so that these can best meet today's customers' requirements

There were some crazy transitions between fall and winter in the Canadian Rockies when I visited. The start of October brought early snow to the Rockies. What was left was a really cool transition between fall and winter in most spots. This particular spot by Waterfowl Lakes had quite a few inches of snow, while the town center of Banff really was snow free. Quite amazing.

Three days ago, I posted about the fear of tap dancing.
Well, there was a little more to it than that, but fear and hesitation pretty much sum it up.
Received an email newsletter this morning from Holstee, with its editorial written by one of Holstee's two brother founders.
He referenced the psychologist Abraham Maslow as he spoke of a recent episode of his own fear, a backflip into a canal in Amsterdam. Do it. Don't do it.
Maslow said that at any given moment we can step forward into growth or step backward into safety.
If you choose growth over safety, it's so worth it.

How can homeowners tell if their roof has a problem?
Many people fail to have their roof checked regularly and may not realize they have a problem until they find a leak. Having your roof checked professionally twice a year can help homeowners identify potential problems before they cause damage. During an inspection, our professionals can easily spot damaged or missing shingles, bald patches, worn flashing or loose seams. Inside, symptoms of potential damage can include peeling wallpaper, cracked paint and discolored wallboard.
What about other exterior Issues?
Your Gutter, Siding, and Windows all need to be regularly checked for damage. Even the smallest damage can cause large issues for the health and safety of your home. Our professionals can quickly inspect the exterior of your home to give you peace of mind.
The cost of a new roof will depend on what type of material is being used, the size of the roof, local labor rates, the geographical area, the contractor and other unique factors. If your roof is being replaced due to storm damage, insurance coverage might also be a factor in pricing. If your roof has storm damage, your insurance company may pay to replace your roof, meaning your only out of pocket costs is your insurance deductible. Talk to a Storm Guard representative for an inspection and roofing estimate.
Are Roofing and Home Exterior Construction Projects something a homeowner can do themselves?
Roofing, Window Replacement, and Siding Repair or Replacement are not DIY jobs. Homeowners can easily be injured, and improper construction techniques can lead to long-term problems that will cost more to repair than it would have been to hire a professional at the beginning of the project. Storm Guard Roofing and Construction in Wilmington, NC has the experience, training and tools to safely and efficiently fix or replace a roof and can save homeowners a lot of time and money.
What is the best type of roof to use?
A roof is not just about protecting the home; it can also add aesthetic value. Homeowners should choose a roof that will improve the look and value of their home and pick a roofing material that is right for the regional environment. We can talk you through all of your options!
How long does a new roof take to install?
The timeline to install a new roof can vary quite a bit. It is a labor-intensive job that can take one day or several days, depending on the size and complexity of the job. The weather can affect the time the project takes, too. Wind, rain and snow can lead to unwanted delays. Call now to schedule an appointment if you have roofing needs – do not delay.
How long will a new roof system last?
New roof systems typically come with warranties. This does not mean the roof will last as long as the warranty, but it does mean the system will be free of manufacturing defects. Otherwise, roof systems are designed to last about 20 years. Choosing Storm Guard Roofing and Construction in Wilmington, NC as your home exterior contractor can be key as many of our locations are certified with different roofing systems. Correct application is key in longevity and efficacy. The actual lifespan of a roof will vary based on several factors, including the local climate, the quality of the material, maintenance, application and design.
Can solar panels remain in place?
Solar panels are typically mounted or bolted onto the existing roof. In order to install a new roof, the solar panels must be removed. They can be reinstalled after the roof has been replaced. Storm Guard can help you coordinate removal and replacement of solar panels.
Do gutters need to be replaced when the roof is?
If the gutters are in good working condition, there is not necessarily a reason to replace them. However, if the gutters are damaged or in poor repair, if runoff water regularly overflows, or if they are otherwise leaking, it might be time for new gutter installation.
When will my siding need to be replaced?
Storm Guard will check your siding along with other home exterior components when we assess your roof. Siding might need to be replaced along with the roof. Homeowners should call Storm Guard immediately if they notice rotted or warped siding, damaged or loose siding, peeling paint on interior walls, holes in the siding or dry rot.
How should a new roof be cleaned?
Do not power wash the roof. High-pressure hoses can damage the new shingles and shorten the life expectancy of the roof. It will also void any warranties. If the roof has mildew, homeowners should use a mildew cleaner designed for roofs. Algae can also grow on roofs. It is harmless but can be unsightly.
Storm Guard replaced my roof and I am beyond pleased. Steven Block handled everything for me and it was such an easy process. The roofing crew was at my house at 7 am and by 5 pm I had a new roof! Steven handled all of the paperwork and told me exactly what to expect. He even stopped by several times to make sure things were running smoothly. The roofing crew was efficient, cleaned up everything and did an excellent job. I would highly recommend Storm Guard. They did a great job for me!
Professional, reliable, prompt service. The guys walked me through each step of the process and completed the roof in one day. StormGuard of Wilmington replaced my entire roof for thousands less than another contractor quoted me. I will certainly recommend to my friends and family.
Excellent Company! The job was professionally done, cleanup was excellent. Would highly recommend Stormguard to friends and neighbors. Job well done. Thank you Steven and Mike.
Roofing Services for Pat W.
Stormguard did a awesome job in replacing my roof and gutters! I've had several comments on how great my new roof looks. Steven exceeded my expectation. He made sure all my needs were met to the smallest detail. Mike and the crew where very professional and exceptionally clean! I would highly recommended stormguard for roofing and gutters! Thanks again steven and Mike!
I would highly recommend Storm Guard of Wilmington to replace your roof. We had severe storm damage and Steven was awesome in getting our roof replaced in a timely manner. The crew was efficient and kept the work area clean. They even came back several days later to make sure all the nails were picked up so my dogs were safe. I also wan to mention how Steven was very knowledgeable about the products being used. When I need my siding and windows replaced I will be calling Storm Guard of Wilmington!
In working with "Storm Guard Of Wilmington" , I have personally seen many homeowners So happy and ecstatic after getting a brand new quality roof, gutters, siding and painting/ anything exterior. Mainly due to Storm Damages, But also retail work as well.They go over and beyond their scope of work to make sure everything is to the Nc code but mainly to make sure that the customer is Happy! With their 5 yr. workmanship warranty that also is a blessing on its own page because mo...st companies as you know do not or wouldn't warranty much of anything anymore because of the low Quality work they put out! But I have seen many smiles from customers when jobs have been completed by Storm Guard not only because of the workmanship/quality but the thousands of dollars that they saved by using them and never thought it was possible! You also can never go wrong with a company that doesn't over promise you something that they cannot deliver and that will do a Free No Obligation Property Inspection while not expecting anything from you. So when you are in need of assistance don't hesitate to call because they are committed to anything they say! Thanks Storm Guard, keep up the awesome work and customer service!
Roofing Contractor for Gale S.
Storm Guard is a top notch company with excellent customer service. They recently replaced my Mother's roof and it was a positive experience from start to finish. Mike H**** took my mother under his wing and walked her through every step of the process. He treated her like she was part of his family. The other Mike and his roofing crew did an excellent job. They were professional and paid great attention to detail. They cleaned up after themselves and finished the roof in one day. I would highly recommend this company. Ask for Mike H and you will be taken care of from start to finish.

L'arabusta (Coffea ×arabusta) est un caféier hybride résultant de l'hybridation du caféier robusta (Coffea canephora) et de l'Arabica (Coffea arabica).

Coffea canephora étant diploïde et Coffea arabica tétraploïde, l'hybridation n'est possible qu'avec des variétés tétraploïdes de Coffea canephora créées pour la circonstance par traitement à la colchicine.

L'arabusta est très vigoureux, car il s'agit d'un hybride. En ce qui concerne la qualité, il possède une partie de la qualité des arômes de l'arabica et peut se cultiver tout comme le robusta en basse altitude dans les pays tropicaux. Sa teneur en caféine est intermédiaire entre celle du robusta et celle de l'arabica.

L'arabusta est peu cultivé dans le monde.

Nom scientifique
Certains auteurs refusent le nom scientifique Coffea ×arabusta, préférant la formule complète Coffea arabica × Coffea canephora.

Investing in Upskilling: Gains for Individuals, Employers and Government - Summary New Brunswick (2012)
This report is part of a project that examines the relationship between literacy and income. It was undertaken for the Canadian Literacy and Learning Network (CLLN).
The authors analyzed data from the 2003 International Adult Literacy and Skills Survey and the 2005 to 2009 Surveys of Labour and Income Dynamics to determine the costs and savings associated with moving every Canadian with a Literacy Level 1 or 2 on the international literacy scale to Level 3, the level considered essential to compete in the global economy.
In this document, the authors look specifically at the province of New Brunswick, where they estimate that a one-time investment of $1.032 billion over five years would be required to raise the skills of all adults to Level 3. In return, earnings for New Brunswickers who receive literacy upgrading are estimated to rise by $2.79 billion, or by an average of $4,589 per worker annually.
As well, there would be savings of $95 million because of reductions in employment insurance, workers' compensation, and social assistance payments.

Q: istio-proxy not logging in-cluster traffic I have a basic istio1.12.2 setup on GKE 1.21.6-gke.1500, all the pods have istio-proxy injected. I have set meshConfig accessLogFile.

I tried hitting the load balancer and in the ingressgateway pod I see the log (Due to some firewall I can't hit the load balancer but I port-forwarded it to 127.0.0.1:8080, therefore the 127.0.0.1, 404 is the expected response)
GET / HTTP/1.1" 404 - via_upstream - "-" 0 47 8 8 "10.32.4.9" "curl/7.77.0" "generatedlbname" "abc.com:8080" "10.32.0.24:8080" outbound|80||abc.default.svc.cluster.local 10.32.4.9:36756 127.0.0.1:8080 127.0.0.1:42412

10.32.4.9 is the ip of the ingressgateway
10.32.0.24 is the ip of the abc app pod
but when I checked the istio-proxy log for all the abc app, I don't see any logs for this call. I did get the response I expected so the call must have hit my app but somehow I'm not seeing logs in the pods.
is the request somehow not routed to istio-proxy? or are there any other settings I need to do.

A: What do you mean by ABC Apps? Also can you re-check your configuration once.
Also, You should  select the logging format in yaml.  You can also choose between JSON and text by setting accessLogEncoding to JSON or TEXT. You may also want to customize the format of the access log by editing meshConfig.accessLogFormat field of IstioOperator when installed with a custom configuration.
You can set as the value of meshConfig.accessLogFormat field of IstioOperator as shown below:
meshConfig:
    accessLogFile: /dev/stdout
    accessLogEncoding: JSON
    accessLogFormat: |
      {
        "accessLogFormat": "{\"a\": \"access_log\",\"start_time\": \"%START_TIME%\"}"
      }

This will generate a log from your application sidecar and ingress gateway as:
{"start_time":"2020-09-08T07:16:08.326Z","a":"access_log"}

Refer Customising istio access logs for more information.
Also refer to Collecting Anthos service Mesh Logs.

A: The issue seems to be that I was hitting the wrong port. I saw the logs once I was hitting the correct port. although it's still weird for me that I'm not seeing logs by envoy, even though the port is not valid the pod ip is so I'd assume the packet passed through envoy

It's Friday night. Maybe this is September of 1963 or it could even be as late as April of 1964. The sky is the same cobalt blue as a bottle of Midnight-in-Paris Perfume, illuminated by a fat, gauzy, golden moon that seems intent upon inspecting all the blue, fluffy clouds floating under its watchful beams. We are walking through a dense ground fog rolling in from the beach that, quite happily, is not cold, but just warm enough to awaken all dormant things that will demand to uncoil, stretch out, live, reproduce, thrive and then do it all over again once they get a sense of how things work.
I am 14 and lovesick, prattling on and on to my friend, Thelma, about how much I love Thibeau. Part of the reason I have sought her out is that her brother, Robert, is best friends with Thibeau, and I think there's a random chance that I may see him at her house visiting Robert. But instead of seeing Thibeau—or even Robert—I get to watch Thelma wash her hair with green Prell Shampoo in the kitchen sink. Then I get to watch her set her hair in front of the bathroom mirror, while she talks about the guy SHE likes. After all the rollers are firmly secured with bobby pins and a kerchief, we decide that a walk is in order since there's nothing else going on. We head out into the fields, a huge, wild expanse of tall grasses and scrubby trees, that will one day be a parking lot for big city stores like W.T. Grants and E.J. Korvettes. But not now, not yet; there is still time and space in this world for magic.
Thibeau is my desk mate in French class—for some reason, there are double, instead of single, rows of wooden desks, the kind with the inkwells that no longer work. I've had the remarkable, good fortune of being paired up with this tall, lanky Thibeau guy, the only kid in the whole school who plays a TUBA, of all things! How cool is that? The desks are bolted to the floor, so we are a captive audience for each other. He's a senior, I'm a freshman. This is bad news for me, since seniors NEVER date freshman. The good news, though, is that we both inhabit the same range of dorkiness. It's rather clear to me that this could be the start of something big. It feels like a budding romance, but it may just have been a sweet respite from the constant awareness that I was being judged negatively—if only by myself. We all know who the beautiful people are—and most people know they are not one of them. Also, these were the days before real acne medication was available, when a star on your work meant it was truly excellent, and plastic trophies hadn't been invented yet. Your ego took a beating every day, especially if you had stupid clothes, fly-away hair, dumb shoes, and maybe even buck teeth. Oh, yeah, and all your friends were, luckily and unluckily, just as goofy as, if not goofier than you.
The usual awkwardness of boy-girl interaction is somewhat neutralized between Thibeau and me since I love to laugh and he loves making me laugh. Thibeau apparently likes me a lot too, if only because everything he says is so hysterically funny that I guffaw at his jokes, which earns me dirty looks from the teacher and some of the more serious students, many of whom are also seniors. But I don't care. Thibeau is, in fact, my dream man. Miraculously, when the bell rings each day, he walks me to my next class, and then leaves, as he has early dismissal. Unfortunately, this involves no hand-holding, no exchange of phone numbers, no "So what are you doing this Friday night?" kinds of questions—just a goofy, embarrassed glance or two at each other's face.
The fields are just across the street from Thelma's house. We find the narrow path and Thelma is walking ahead of me. She's got a transistor radio. By now, she's got to be sick of hearing me go on and on about Thibeau. The tinny, scratchy static shuts me up while she tries to tune in to one of our favorite disc jockeys, Cousin Brucie or B. Mitchel Reed. Finally, we are held captive by the radio waves transmitting the driving, pounding beat of the Ronettes' hit, "Be My Baby." We continue walking in single file, oblivious to everything except the blue moon, the electric clouds, the fog which becomes part of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound, the libidinous, rhythmic thwacking of castanets and shivering tamborines, the vibration of those droning horns which magically synchronize with the chirping crickets and the thumping "boom-pa-boom-pah" punctuation of something that cannot be contained, like a dam that's about to burst, but just before it does, the music releases a torrent of lyrics which pours forth all the longing, the promises, the what-ifs and the entreaties belted out by these nubile, hip-swiveling beauties, articulating everything that no adult could ever understand.
I remember nothing more about that night, except knowing that the enchantment of that moment would be with me forever, how what was burning so intensely in my heart could manifest itself in all of nature and how a song could thread itself through a needle, and stitch it all together, for one other-worldly, soul-aching, heart-breakingly hopeful glimpse of Nirvana.
For the rest of that year, I remembered that night. I continued to harbor the illusion that Thibeau would ask me out, or ask for my phone number or mention some dance, or a movie, or a party, or hold my hand, or say goodbye because he was graduating, or something, but no. Was it too over-the-top to think he'd ask me to the Senior Prom? Yeah, I guess so, because that never happened.
On the bright side, at least I got an A in French. The bad news is that I forgot most of the French. The good news is that I remembered all of the magic.
