Topic: Wider Narratives
Prefer Narratives with Hope
See updated version with Naomi Ceder's update in 2020 added at the end.
In her presentation for Write/Speak/Code 2016, Naomi Ceder (@naomiceder) describes how our narrative about a situation controls the options we have. When she was young, the narrative she saw about trans people was one of sickness, wrongness, and absence of hope. The only way to transition was to renounce contact with all current family and community. There was no way forward.
Over time, she realized that the narrative was wrong and found trans people with an affirming narrative that included staying in contact with family and community. Now she had viable options and could move forward with a more gradual, connected transition.
Name the problem
When you have an intractable problem, look at the narrative around it. Analogies, metaphors, and narratives define the solutions we can imagine.
There might not be a narrative at all, just a nameless, amorphous unease. Being gay or trans can feel that way if available narratives only include cis straight people. An abuse survivor might feel that way before memories surface.
If you have a problem without a narrative, hold the question of what it might be. Sit with the unease, and with what you do know about the problem. Keep an eye out for clues. Find safe people to talk with who might help you name the issue. Once you have a name, you can explore further through internet searches and people who know about that topic.
It's not you
Often, an intractable problem includes the narrative that there is something intrinsically wrong with you, that instead of having a problem, you are the problem. This narrative and the shame that goes with it might be invisible, like the air you breathe.
The first step is to notice a toxic narrative. You might arrive there through despair. When you have tried everything to fix yourself, exhausted defeat leads you to put down the shovel of self-blame and stop digging. You might arrive there by paying attention to beliefs that make you feel terrible, and deciding to choose new beliefs.
It can feel misleadingly powerful to label yourself as the problem and try to fix it. Unfortunately, you cannot fix what is not broken. When you name that the problem is external to you, you might feel helpless and overwhelmed. You might also feel relief, because you have shifted to being on your own side rather than attacking yourself.
When your narrative says that you are the problem, it also says that you are solely responsible for it, and maybe you should not even talk about it. When the narrative shifts to an external problem, it shifts from individual to universal. You have company and support, because many people are affected by the same external environment.
Being trans is intrinsic to the person, but not bad. The problem lies not in being trans, but in how society treats trans people. We can all work together to reduce anti-trans bias and improve resources for trans people. Trans people can share hopeful narratives of exploring gender expression and the relief of getting on the right hormones.
Being abused is bad, but not intrinsic to the person. The problem lies not in being an abuse survivor, but in how society treats abuse survivors, and in the internalized shame and victim-blaming that impede healing. We can all work together to reduce rape culture and victim-blaming, and improve resources for survivors. Survivors can share hopeful narratives of bearing witness to our own truth.
"My body knows what to do"
During a rape or other assault, it is common for the body to freeze until the assault is over. This is a source of shame-filled narratives like, "My body betrayed me. I didn't fight hard enough." Similarly, it is common for trans people to stay silently closeted until there is enough safety (or desperation) to come out.
Try a new narrative: "I survived. My body knew what to do. Freezing is completely normal in response to danger."
In freeze, immobility covers powerful impulses to DO SOMETHING about the emergency. This energy arises during the healing process, leading to the narrative, "I'm frozen. I have to do something!"
Try a new narrative: "Freeze is self-limiting. In a safe environment, all I have to do is let the freeze be there, and my body will come out of it in time." It is normal to come out of freeze the way we went in, terrified or furious or desperate for help. With kind attention, the feelings will resolve.
Reach for hope
Whenever you find yourself thinking that you are crazy and wrong and bad, try a new narrative: "My perceptions and responses make sense. I am intrinsically good. I am doing my best with the resources and knowledge I have."
Whenever you find yourself thinking desperately that nothing will ever change, remember that "never" and "forever" are flashback markers. Try a new narrative: "Change is possible." The present might already be moving toward the change you seek. You might make a new friend, read a new book or blog post, or find some other source of new ideas. A bigger shift might change everything. Allow yourself to reach for hope.
"It's not you, it's them: Reflections on being marginalized in STEM" Naomi Ceder's talk at Write/Speak/Code 2016. 40 minute video. The part specifically about narrative starts at around 17:30. When she went from being an apparent cis straight white man in tech to being a trans white woman in the same job, she suddenly encountered the multiple ways women are prevented from succeeding in tech, while the narrative blames individual women for their "failures." Slides for the talk.
In her post "To almost 25-year-old me," Katie Brookins describes the narrative that allowed her to make changes in her life. "Your life is a house and the house is on fire."

Varsity Release Their Debut Album Parallel Person
Virginia Croft
It's not hard to be a little envious of dogs. They're loved by just about everyone, are not burdened by responsibility, and are essentially always present, there for the moment. On Chicago based Varsity's sophomore release, Parallel Person, the quintet begins the album with a track praising, and admiring, a dog's life. On "Gordi," front-woman Stephanie Smith sings, "I was only just trying to tell you / All along that you're the dog, I'm the person… Waiting for the appropriate time / To sit you down and find the words / I'm the person, you're the best, and I'm the worst." In a tongue in cheek way, the band vocalizes what every dog owner and admirer feels.
Throughout the ten tracks of Parallel Person, there is a strong sense of trust and friendship among the members. Comprised of Smith on keyboards and vocals, she is joined by Dylan Weschler and Pat Stanton on guitars, and Jake Stolz on drums and his brother Paul on bass. Their level of connection exudes through their bubbly brand of champagne-pop, with a dash of nostalgia. Conjuring up images of changes and new beginnings, Smith delicately sings on "Krissy", "Hate to break the news to you / You never can go home again."
Varsity has a knack for asking the hard questions, set to a twinkling instrumentation, bright garage pop for those who need to speak their mind. On "Watching U," Smith sings, "All I'm asking for is your love / All I need it for is a crutch / And I watch you / When I want to." With a sense of longing, there is an admittance for allowing love, letting it fully take over the heart, soul, and mind. The acknowledgment of wanting someone becomes a motif throughout Parallel Person, the resilience and unadulterated honesty striking a perpetual chord.
Varsity's tracks are breezy in sound, fully sun-soaked and best served by the water. They're hard to turn away from, pulling on heartstrings as the necessary thoughts are worked through, track by track.

[infographic] Which Social Networks And Posts Work Best For B2B?
I found this infographic on webpronews. It was created using information from The Social Media Benchmarking Report produced by B2B Marketing in association with Circle Research, and is available for sale.
Most of the below reiterates what those of us in the social space already know – LinkedIn is where you go to do business, video content creates more engagement, Twitter helps boost branding… and then it gets a bit more interesting.
The report indicates that 60% of respondents can now PROVE ROI for social media efforts in some form. It also states that only 8% of respondents think social is of limited or no importance. The tide has certainly turned here! Social cannot be dismissed anymore as some passing fad that has nothing to do with business…and whether that is good news or bad news is up to you to decide.
If you are in the space, or are planning on jumping in, it is very important to keep in mind that it's SOCIAL media first, then a marketing tool. With 75% of respondents sending the marketing team in to man the accounts, interactions can be stiff and 99% of the time you can tell if you are speaking with someone who understands your business, or an intern assigned to social. I believe most of the key challenges indicated below could be overcome by understanding that people want a human experience through social media, and if you take the time to engage with and learn about your audience, they will appreciate that more than anything else.

The Last Return is a thrilling comedy about conflict, peace and the pursuit of territory at any cost. One final night. One last chance. Five people queue for a ticket to the hottest show in town. All they must do is simply wait in line. But what in life is ever simple? Who will triumph, who will fail, and who will walk away with… The Last Return?
The play has earned five-star ratings from The Times, What's On Stage, The Arts Desk and The Wee Review, and praise such as 'pitch black comic mayhem' from The Guardian, 'wonderful' from The New York Times, and 'shocking and very funny' from The Irish Times.
As part of our commitment to new Irish writing, our world premiere production of Sonya Kelly's comedy opened at Galway International Arts Festival this July, then toured to Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where it won a prestigious Scotsman Fringe First Award, and recently finished a run at the Gate Theatre as part of Dublin Theatre Festival.
A series of events including schools performances, backstage tours and workshops will also take place during the national tour, as part of Druid's Community and Education programme, funded by Aerogen and the Adrian Brinkerhoff Poetry Foundation.
Garry Hynes, Druid's Artistic Director: 'Following runs in Galway, Edinburgh and Dublin, I'm delighted that our world premiere production of Sonya's wonderful new comedy will tour Ireland next spring. I look forward to sharing this cracker of a play with audiences from Donegal to Kerry.'

Iran playing for more than revenge
By Lethbridge Herald Opinon on January 11, 2020.
Soleimani killing an opportunity for Iran to boost falling influence in Iraq
If the Iranians played the game the same way that Donald Trump does, then their revenge for the American assassination of Iran's leading general, Qassem Soleimani, would have been a simple tit-for-tat. For example, just kill U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, the man who actually organized the hit and then boasted about it.
If Pompeo was too hard to get at, the Iranians could have got even by murdering any one or two of a hundred other senior U.S. officials. Probably two, because the U.S. drone that hit Soleimani's car coming out of Baghdad airport also killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the leader of Kata'ib Hezbollah, the most powerful pro-Iranian militia in Iraq. An eye for an eye, and so forth.
But Iranians are playing a much longer game than tit-for-tat, and their targets are political, not personal. Instead, they launched a dozen ballistic missiles at two U.S. air-bases in Iraq – after warning the Iraqi government a few minutes before that the strikes were incoming, knowing that the Iraqis would instantly warn the Americans.
So Iranian "honour" has been satisfied – they shot back at the Americans – but no Americans were killed or injured. As they hoped, Donald Trump's speech one day later effectively signalled that he will not go to the next level of escalation. He'll just impose more sanctions on Iran, if he can think of any that were previously overlooked.
In practical terms, Iran has already taken its revenge. Its first response, last Sunday, was to announce that it will no longer respect the limits placed on its nuclear programmes by the 2015 nuclear treaty, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
Trump pulled the United States out of that treaty in 2018, and Iran has given up hope that the other signatories (China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and Germany) would defy the United States and go on trading with Iran. It signed the deal in order to end the sanctions, but all the sanctions are effectively still in place
Tehran didn't say that it is now going to start working on nuclear weapons, but it will resume producing enriched nuclear fuels in quantities that would make that possible. Iran knew that it would to have to pull the plug on the JCPOA eventually, but Trump's assassination of Soleimani let it do so with no international uproar. Everybody was busy with the fallout from the assassination instead.
And there's a second, less visible benefit for Iran from Soleimani's murder. It greatly strengthens Iran's political influence in Iraq, which has been falling fast in recent months.
Ever since the U.S. invasion in 2003, Iraq has been the scene for intense competition for influence between the United States, which dominated the country militarily, and Iran, whose state religion, the Shia version of Islam, is also the faith of the majority of Iraqis.
There are still about 5,000 American troops in Iraq, but they are now vastly outnumbered by local pro-Iran Shia militias, who did the heavy lifting during the 2014-17 military campaign to crush Islamic State militants in northern Iraq. Lately, however, the pro-Iran faction had been losing ground.
When popular protests broke out in September against the huge corruption of Iraqi politicians and the impoverishment of the general population, the pro-Iran militias started killing the protesters. That was General Soleimani's idea, and a very serious mistake on his part: the street protests began to target Iranian influence as well.
But Soleimani's murder has largely erased that resentment: he is now yet another Shia martyr to the cause, and an extraordinary session of the Iraqi parliament passed a resolution on Sunday demanding the expulsion of U.S. troops from Iraq.
The Iraqi political elite may or may not carry through on that policy, but there is genuine outrage that the United States, technically an ally, would make an airstrike just outside Baghdad airport without telling Iraq and kill an invited guest of the Iraq government. This is what contempt looks like, and it rankles.
In just one weekend Iran has had two big diplomatic wins thanks to Soleimani's assassination. It felt it had to do something militarily as well, but it did the very least that it could, and it seems to have worked.
Iran doesn't want an all-out war with the United States. The U.S. could not win that war, but Iran would suffer huge damage if there were a flat-out American bombing campaign using only conventional bombs and warheads.
Apocalyptic outcomes to this confrontation are still possible, but they're not very likely. The Iranians will probably just chug along as before, staying within the letter of the law most of the time and waiting for Trump to make his next mistake in their favour. He's reliable in that, if in nothing else.
Gwynne Dyer's new book is "Growing Pains: The Future of Democracy (and Work)."

Resolute says:
Gwyn is setting ever higher standards in his complexity of spin! This ranks as at least a quad salchow! Why oh why does anyone print his word salads.
George McCrea says:
Iran was shooting and tear gassing their own who
we're protesting the dictatorship shooting down and
Killing innocent civilians. So much for Dyers drivel

La presència de xinesos al País Valencià s'ha donat durant tres onades d'immigració entre la segona meitat del segle XX i el , tenint la conseqüència d'haver aparegut una primera generació de valencians d'origen xinès al voltant del segle XXI. El 2019 hi havia al territori valencià al voltant de 20.000 xinesos (el 10% dels xinesos residents a Espanya), establerts la meitat d'ells a l'àrea metropolitana de València.

Història
La primera presència xinesa al País Valencià, va ocórrer a la dècada de 1960, a la ciutat de València.

Les tres onades s'han produït especialment des de les dues províncies del sud-est de la República Popular de la Xina, Zhejiang i Fujian.

La primera onada d'immigració al País Valencià per part dels xinesos va ocórrer al la fi dels anys huitanta i principi dels noranta. La primera generació de valencians d'origen xinès descendeix d'aquesta gent. Les persones vingudes amb aquesta onada es dedicaren principalment a l'hostaleria.

A València, el nombre de xinesos assentats era moderat en relació a altres grups d'immigrants.

Les altres dos onades tingueren lloc per un efecte crida.

La segona, la més nombrosa de les tres, va ocórrer a la fi del . El perfil típic d'aquest immigrant era qui es dedicava a les botigues d'articles barats.

El 2002, l'arribada d'immigrants llatinoamericans a València, va disminuir la importància del nombre d'immigrants xinesos. Els xinesos aleshores eren ja un dels col·lectius immigrants més assentats a la ciutat. Residien a València de manera dispersa segons els nínxols de mercat que ocupaven i no trobaven problema a l'hora d'habitatge pel gran suport de la família i altres grups socials.

Ja al voltant de l'any 2002, els xinesos, junt als marroquins i senegalesos, eren el col·lectiu immigrant a València amb més presència al Centre Històric.

La tercera onada va transcórrer a la fi de la primera dècada de 2000. Des d'aleshores, la immigració al País Valencià s'ha moderat considerablement per la millora de l'economia de la República Popular de la Xina. El perfil típic de l'immigrant xinès a les terres valencianes era d'un inversor. Solen ser xinesos que s'han fet rics al seu país natal i venen al País Valencià a gaudir del clima.

A València, el 2011 el col·lectiu presentava un perfil familiar. Així, el 15% dels xinesos eren menors de 15 anys.

A la ciutat, es van concentrar sobre un grup d'illes de cases pròximes a l'Estació del Nord (carrer Pelai, carrer Convent de Jerusalem i carrer Bailén) des de la fi de la primera dècada del segle XXI. Allí hi viuen 500 xinesos, segons dades de 2017, convivint amb paquistanesos i llatinoamericans. Als barris populars en general de la ciutat, es troben xinesos.

Q: passing a Spring Exception to a Thymeleaf page Having added the error.html Thymeleaf template to replace the default error page on Spring how can I get access to the exception on that page?
So I have custom exception thrown on some controller. How to access that exception on the Thymeleaf page?
I want this to work globally, so any controller thrown exception should be accessible.

A: Case 1: For customized error pages with spring default error info
There are some predefined objects in Thymeleaf to show error information, e.g. ${error}, ${exception} and so on. These objects can be used in your customized error page.
This article will help you more. Custom Error Page with Thymeleaf
Case 2: For customized error pages with customized error info
There are @ControllerAdvice and @ExceptionHandler used to handle exceptions in controllers globally. A certain exception can be add to Modal's attribute and therefore accessed in thymeleaf templates. However,  please be noted that the solution does not work in Webflux.
The blog shows details about the solution. Exception Handling in Spring MVC

It is normal for a woman to experience a range of emotions after an abortion, such as relief, sadness, happiness and feelings of loss.
Each woman is unique. Many women feel that they have made the right decision after having an abortion. For some women, however, abortion can raise negative emotional responses including grief, guilt, anger, shame and regret. Understanding your emotions can help you begin to let go of any pain and start to heal.
It is important to recognize your feelings and to take good care of yourself if you are experiencing difficulty. The following information may be helpful if you are experiencing emotional distress after an abortion.
Hormones are changing back to their pre-pregnancy state after an abortion. This chemical change can make a woman feel sad and emotional.
A woman is more likely to feel negative emotions if she felt pressured into having an abortion by someone else, instead of making her own decision.
Some women don't receive much support from their friends or family.
Social stigmas about abortion can make it difficult for women to share their experience and make them feel isolated.
Some women might feel judged.
Some women fear that they might never again be able to get pregnant. However, abortion does not interfere with your future fertility.
Sometimes the couple relationship is stressed or undermined by the crisis of an unplanned pregnancy. In these circumstances, women may feel abused and/or abandoned.
Any time you make a difficult life decision, it is natural to have second thoughts. Allowing yourself to express any negative feelings that you may be having will help to diminish their impact. Sometimes reading about other women's experiences can be reassuring and may make your own feelings more clear.
Approximately 5% to 30% of women report feelings of regret, anxiety, guilt, mild depression and other negative emotions. If your feelings are overwhelming or persistent, you should consult a professional therapist.
It is rare for a woman to become clinically depressed after having an abortion.
There are some risk factors that can contribute to the risk of clinical depression after abortion, such as if the woman has a previous history of depression. Depression is a very serious illness. It is extremely important that you seek help from a professional such as a doctor, counsellor or therapist.

A glimmer of hope: New vaccine against COVID-19, called PittCoVacc, shows promise
It won't help today's patients (unless they are rats or mice); but, on April 2, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine scientists announced in a press release that they had produced a potential vaccine against SARS-CoV-2— the new coronavirus causing the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through an expedited testing process, the vaccine, called the PittCoVacc, could be available for use in a little over a year.
When tested in mice, the vaccine—which is delivered through a fingertip-sized patch, not an injection—produces antibodies specific to SARS-CoV-2 at quantities thought to be sufficient for neutralizing the virus. Indeed, PittCoVacc generated a surge of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 within two weeks of the microneedle prick.
The researchers were able to act quickly to develop the vaccine because they already had laid the groundwork during earlier coronavirus epidemics: "We had previous experience on SARS-CoV in 2003 and MERS-CoV in 2014. These two viruses, which are closely related to SARS-CoV-2, teach us that a particular protein, called a spike protein, is important for inducing immunity against the virus. We knew exactly where to fight this new virus," said co-senior author Andrea Gambotto, M.D., associate professor of Surgery at the Pitt School of Medicine. "That's why it's important to fund vaccine research. You never know where the next pandemic will come from."
"Our ability to rapidly develop this vaccine was a result of scientists with expertise in diverse areas of research working together with a common goal," said co-senior author Louis Falo, M.D., Ph.D., professor and chair of Dermatology at Pitt's School of Medicine and UPMC.
Compared to the experimental mRNA vaccine candidate that just entered clinical trials, the vaccine described in this paper (PittCoVacc, short for Pittsburgh Coronavirus Vaccine) follows a more established approach, using lab-made pieces of viral protein to build immunity. It's the same way the current flu shots work.
The researchers also used a novel approach to deliver the drug, called a microneedle array, to increase potency. This array is a fingertip-sized patch of 400 tiny needles that delivers the spike protein pieces into the skin, where the immune reaction is strongest. The patch goes on like a Band-Aid and then the needles—which are made entirely of sugar and the protein pieces—simply dissolve into the skin.
"We developed this to build on the original scratch method used to deliver the smallpox vaccine to the skin, but as a high-tech version that is more efficient and reproducible patient to patient," Falo said. "And it's actually pretty painless—it feels kind of like Velcro."
The system also is highly scalable. The protein pieces are manufactured by a "cell factory"—layers upon layers of cultured cells engineered to express the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein—that can be stacked further to multiply yield.
Purifying the protein also can be done at industrial scale. Mass-producing the microneedle array involves spinning down the protein-sugar mixture into a mold using a centrifuge. Once manufactured, the vaccine can sit at room temperature until it's needed, eliminating the need for refrigeration during transport or storage.
"For most vaccines, you don't need to address scalability to begin with," Gambotto said. "But when you try to develop a vaccine quickly against a pandemic that's the first requirement."
Importantly, the SARS-CoV-2 microneedle vaccine maintains its potency even after being thoroughly sterilized with gamma radiation — a key step toward making a product that's suitable for use in humans.
The authors are now in the process of applying for an investigational new drug approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in anticipation of starting a phase I human clinical trial within the next few months.
"Testing in patients would typically require at least a year and probably longer," Falo said. "This particular situation is different from anything we've ever seen, so we don't know how long the clinical development process will take. Recently announced revisions to the normal processes suggest we may be able to advance this faster."
Among the additional authors on the study are Eun Kim, Geza Erdos, Ph.D., Shaohua Huang, Thomas Kenniston, Stephen Balmert, Ph.D., Cara Donahue Carey, Michael Epperly, Ph.D., William Klimstra, Ph.D., and Emrullah Korkmaz, Ph.D., all of Pitt; and Bart Haagmans, of Erasmus Medical Center.
