I've been creating some more knitting bags, following a request for some tote-style designs, so here's a preview of a couple I've made. They are all lined with calico, which is such a fantastic fabric – it makes the bags feel strong without feeling bulky. They also have pockets for needles and patterns; you can fit loads of wool inside and they're great for large or small knitting projects. I've added a new page for these totes under Knitting Bags, so more details can be found there.
I like the tote style design – so versatile!

Chorioamnionitis and neonatal outcome: early vs late preterm infants
Lidia Decembrino1,
Margherita Pozzi1,
Rossana Falcone1 &
Mauro Stronati1
Chorioamnionitis (CA) describes an intrauterine status of inflammation and/or infection of placental membranes, refering to both histological and clinical CA [1]. It is considered the major risk of spontaneous preterm delivery, especially at earlier gestational age. The intrauterine exposure to infection/inflammation leads to the fetal inflammatory syndrome (FIRS) that together with CA is responsible for multiple organ injury, neonatal morbidity and mortality [2]. Strong evidences support that neonates exposed to CA are sicker at birth, have a higher rates of early-onset sepsis, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), patent ductus arteriousus (PDA) and surgical necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) as compared with unexposed neonates [3–6]. Neonates with ≤ 28 weeks of gestational age (GA) have a significantly higher mortality than neonates with a longer gestation period [7]. Recently Pappas et al reported an increased odds of cognitive impairment and death/neurodevelopmental impairment in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) exposed to CA [8]. In infants born at 36 weeks or later in gestation CA has been indentified as an independent risk factor of CP [9]. Lee et al highlighted that acute histologic CA is a risk factor for adverse neonatal outcome in late preterm birth after preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) [10]. Neverthless, the effects of CA on the neonatal outcome remain under debate, because gestation-independent effects of CA on neonatal outcomes are difficult to assess. Thus in some studies at adjusted analyses for GA, the adverse impact of CA on neonatal outcome is not confirmed [11]. Additionally in many study groups discrimination between ELBW and late preterm infants is not considered. In the future, sufficiently powered cohort studies and well-matched case-control studies will be able to provide useful informations regarding the different outcome between extremely and late preterms infants. An dequate antenatal screening and treatment for CA will improve the prognosis for infants at risk of multiple organ disease as a result of exposure to infection/inflammation before birth [12–14].

Priyanka Chopra & Anushka Sharma's Cat Fight
Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma
*lol* It seems like Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma have found a rather novel way of setting the record straight when it comes to rumours about them. A few reports doing the rounds recently suggested that, after returning from the shoot of Dil Dhadakne Do, Priyanka found out Anushka was spreading false rumours on sets about her growing closeness with Farhan Akhtar. The reports continued that, as a result, PC was upset with the other actress and is now keeping her distance from her.
However, PC just tweeted the photo above and called it the "PeeCee and Nushkie catfight," saying that it was directed at those who believe everything. Well, we've got to say – we like this way of setting the record straight much more interesting (and fun!) than the tradition press statement. ;) What do you think?

LA Tech's Offense Is On The Spot Under Tony Peterson
2013 was a disappointing year for Louisiana Tech and the troubles started on the offensive side of the ball for the Bulldogs. All eyes will be on the Tech offense as fans look for improvement in Head Coach Skip Holt's 2nd year. If the offense sputters again, look for changes in Ruston.
By Jason Jones SBN Aug 21, 2014, 6:00am EDT
Share All sharing options for: LA Tech's Offense Is On The Spot Under Tony Peterson
Tony Peterson made a risky move in 2013. He was a record-setting quarterback at Marshall in the late 1980's and later had success in Huntington as a quarterback coach, where he tutored Chad Pennington and Byron Leftwich. Peterson was back at his alma mater in 2013 after spending several years at Minnesota and Iowa State. He had been back three years, and Marshall was looking really good. Rakeem Cato was entering his junior year after passing for over 4,200 yards and 37 touchdowns as a sophomore.
So with all that promise at Marshall (Cato went on to have a huge junior year and is a dark horse Heisman candidate as a senior), Peterson took the risk and joined Skip Holtz's staff as offensive coordinator. Maybe it was the chance to call the shots on offense that drew the Lodi, CA native to Ruston. The problem was, the Bulldogs didn't have a Rakeem Cato; they didn't have a starting quarterback. Scotty Young and Ryan Higgins struggled behind an inexperienced offensive line.
It's got to be bittersweet for Peterson to see Marshall predicted by some to go undefeated, while Tech is fighting to get to 6 or 7 wins and bowl eligibility. The Bulldogs have loaded up on transfers and a few impact recruits in hopes of sparking an offense that fell from first in the nation (577 yards per game) in 2012 to 94th (366 yards) in 2013.
Despite the help at receiver and offensive line, Peterson and the offense's fate lie in the hands (or the right arm) of former Iowa quarterback Cody Sokol. Sokol is battling Higgins for the starting job and Peterson needs someone to lead his offense down the field and into the end zone.
Coach Holtz is likely to take a bigger role in the offense this season, because ultimately the success and failures of the team fall on him. It doesn't matter who gets the blame if the offense goes South, Tech fans will be quick to call out the quarterback, the head coach, and the offensive coordinator. Tech legend Tim Rattay is on the staff as receivers coach, and his fans will be barking loud for the offense to be turned over to him.
Peterson could have stayed at Marshall and rode Rakeem Cato to more success, but he has been there and he has done it twice already. He's got guts and confidence, and he has a proven track record. If it wasn't for Peterson, we may not have ever heard of Pennington, Leftwich, or Cato. Tech has the talent to turn it around and optimism is creeping back into Joe Alliet stadium. Can Peterson put it together and help lead the offense to the kind of output that he envisioned when he made the move halfway across the country?
Odds are the team will improve by two or three games in the win column, get bowl eligible, and continue building the program. There's enough talent in place to get the job done.

Hi, MN. I remember talking to you about your children's activities. You said they really like playing outside especially when hunting pokemons. However, during the rainy or winter season of course, they cannot go out very often. There are a lot of indoor activities that they can do.
1. Bake without losing your sanity.


This book is devoted to an exposition of the theory of finite-dimensional Lie groups and Lie algebras, which is a beautiful and central topic in modern mathematics. At the end of the nineteenth century this theory came to life in the works of Sophus Lie. It had its origins in Lie's idea of applying Galois theory to differential equations and in Klein's "Erlanger Programm" of treat ing symmetry groups as the fundamental objects in geometry. Lie's approach to many problems of analysis and geometry was mainly local, that is, valid in local coordinate systems only. At the beginning of the twentieth century E. Cartan and Weyl began a systematic treatment of the global aspects of Lie's theory. Since then this theory has ramified tremendously and now, as the twentieth century is coming to a close, its concepts and methods pervade mathematics and theoretical physics. Despite the plethora of books devoted to Lie groups and Lie algebras we feel there is justification for a text that puts emphasis on Lie's principal idea, namely, geometry treated by a blend of algebra and analysis. Lie groups are geometrical objects whose structure can be described conveniently in terms of group actions and fiber bundles. Therefore our point of view is mainly differential geometrical. We have made no attempt to discuss systematically the theory of infinite-dimensional Lie groups and Lie algebras, which is cur rently an active area of research. We now give a short description of the contents of each chapter.

Update 209a Hearings
On September 27, 2013 I attended a restraining order session at Quincy Court.
This session made it clear that our judiciary still has a problem with respect to the issuance and renewal of 209a restraining orders.
The session was methodically run.
First up were single party petitions for extensions or termination of a restraining order. In most cases the restraining order was continued or terminated based upon which individual appeared the defendant or the plaintiff.
Next up were the cases where both parties appeared.
In these cases one might expect to hear contradicting stories.
However that was seldom the case. What was common was a plaintiff seeking a restraining order without a legal basis for obtaining one.

The shared paremnting petition would mandate a presumption of shared equitable custody when parents divorce while the abuse prevention petition would require that all due process rights of civil law be applied in abuse prevention cases.
Massachusetts Attorney General Rejects 'Abuse Protection' and Shared Parenting Petitions
Massachusetts Attorney General again refuses to certify petitions on 'abuse protection' due process rights and for a presumption of shared parenting.
The AG's excuse is that the two petitions will 'affect the powers of the courts'. The real reason, however, is that they would require that justice be administered in the courts and the welfare system for family court lawyers in particular would be drastically reduced.

Q: What is the scale of the MeanDecreaseGini in R randomForest package? the Gini index is a score that varies from 0 to 1, however, in my experience, the MeanDecreaseGini in R's randomForest package is several fold larger than this range. My naive assumption is that if the Gini index ranges from 0 to 1, the mean decrease in the Gini index for a given variable should also be within this range. I haven't been able to find if this score is scaled (eg. mean decrease x 1000). Can someone please tell me if MeanDecreaseGini has been scaled, and if so what that scale is, or is my interpretation completely wrong?
Thanks,

Top Iranian official says retaliation against Israel is "inevitable"
The Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council said today that the Islamic Republic is determined to punish Israel for the latest strikes on a Syrian air base in which several Iranian military personnel were killed. Speaking to reporters in Tehran before leaving for Russia, Ali Shamkhani, who is also a top advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, said retaliation against Israel was "inevitable" and stressed that the Islamic Republic would choose "the timing, place and scope of the response to [Israel's] evil action." He continued: "If the Zionist regime hasn't noticed that the era of hit and run and thuggish exhibitions to create fear and horror has ended, it should then pay a price for this ignorance." Shamkhani also emphasized that Iran has "paid heavy costs" in Syria, and therefore, "it cannot ignore a nerve-wracking increase in destabilizing actions by America, the Zionist regime and some of their regional allies."
Comment: Tension between Iran and Israel and the possibility of a direct confrontation between the two archenemies in Syria have increased dramatically since the April 8 suspected Israeli strikes on Syria's T-4 air base. At least seven Iranian personnel, including the head of Iran's drone operations based in T-4, were killed. Since then, top Iranian officials and commanders of Iranian-backed militia forces in the region have vowed revenge. In his recent trip to Damascus, Ali Akbar Velayati, a top advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, also emphasized that the T-4 strikes "will not go unanswered." Iran's Foreign Ministry and Revolutionary Guards commanders have echoed a similar threat.
The Israeli government has taken Iran's warnings seriously and is bracing for a retaliation from Tehran or its allies in the region.
As Shamkhani's remarks indicate, however, Iran's retaliation may not necessarily be in the immediate term or necessarily through Iranian-led forces in Syria. But Tehran and its allies may target Israeli interests in any parts of the world in order to deter further Israeli actions against Iranian military assets in Syria.
Over the past six years, the Israeli military has conducted more than 100 strikes against suspected Iranian targets inside Syria. And Israeli leaders have made it clear that they will continue to hit Iranian positions if Tehran chooses to establish a long-term military presence in Syria. "No matter the price, we will not allow a noose to form around us," Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman told Israel Radio over the weekend.

Q: Menu navigation with Django I have the view:
def about(request):
    return render(request, 'about.html', {'page_about_exist':1,})

In html I have this code:

 About

So, If I go to the About-page, in menu it has class active, and I can see it visually.
Is there any other way without the dictionary? Because I have in url
url(r'^accounts/login/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.login', name='login',),

and my way with dictionary doesnt look great there. Thanks.

A: You should do this kind of thing with template inheritance. For example, your base.html might include a navigation list with:

Products

About

Then in your about template (assuming it inherits from base) you have:
{% block about %} class="active"{% endblock %}

This will render as pure html, using the class you have defined for active pages. Because it uses simple template inheritance you can also get really fine control with this.

A: I use my own template tag called ifnav.

*

*http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-ifnav-templatetag

*https://bitbucket.org/bikeshedder/django-ifnav-templatetag
The usage is very simple. Just add it to your INSTALLED_APPS and make sure the request context processor is activated.
Afterwards you can write this:

 About

For current projects I use Django CMS which takes care of rendering the navigation.

K Sujatha Rao
In Conversation: K Sujatha Rao , Former Secretary of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India
Sujatha Rao, a 1974 batch IAS officer is a former Union Secretary of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India. In her 36 years of service as a civil servant, she spent 20 years in the health sector in different capacities at the state and federal levels. She holds an MA from Delhi University, an MPA from Harvard University, USA 1991-92 and was a Takemi Fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health 2001-2002 and Gro Harlem Brundtland Senior Leadership Fellow at HSPH in 2012. She is the author of the book entitled "DO We Care? India's Health System" – published by Oxford University Press in 2017.
How did you become interested in healthcare and health systems
I was a civil servant and joined the Indian Administrative Service in 1974. As you known, civil servants are transferred from one department to another and over their 36 years career span over a wide range of sectors starting from working as a Sub Divisional Magistrate in a small division consisting of 5 blocks to working in the Secretariat in the state and Federal governments. My career however, took a unique turn. Contrary to the norm, I worked in the health sector from 1988 till I retired in 2010 almost uninterruptedly. Starting as a Director in the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare in 1988, I went up the ladder retiring as Secretary in December 2010. In between I also worked as the Member Secretary of the National Commission on Macro Economics and Health. This three volume report involving nearly 200 researchers and consultations with various stakeholders, I believe made a significant impact on spreading awareness of health system issues. It was and continues to be the only High Level Committee co chaired by the Ministers of Finance and Health.
Even when I was reverted to the State government during the periods 1993-1998 and again for three months in 2005, I worked as Secretary Family Welfare in the Department of Health and Family Welfare.
So it was but natural for me to develop a deep interest in health as I had work experience on almost all aspects of the health sector at state and federal levels. In between I also went for a year as a Takemi Fellow to the Harvard School of Public Health,USA, that allowed me to audit courses being offered in the School besides use of the excellent library facilities and faculty.
After my retirement I was encouraged by my friends to write and document the success of India's battle against HIV/AIDS. Just then , I was invited as a Senior Gro Harlem Brundtland Fellow at HSPH where I taught a course on India's Health System. So my book then shifted to dealing with health system issues. It was printed by OUP entitled "Do We Care? India's Health System" and released in January 2017.
So, I was fortunate in having a rounded exposure to the health sector and health system issues as a policy maker, researcher and author.
How would you describe your role or specific research interests in the Commission
I see my role essentially as someone who can perhaps provide insights into how the system works and whether the suggestions and recommendations we are considering are feasible and implementable. What one needs to understand is that there is enough data and research available. There is enough thinking done regarding what ails India's health system and what needs to be done. Yet we continue to falter, stumble and struggle. Why? Maybe our past research has been faulty and as a consequence our policies too. We need to understand the WHY and follow it up with the HOW and not go on about the WHAT. In examining the whys' and how's I feel maybe my field experience may come in handy.
As for specific research interests…I have no preferences. I see all aspects of health integrated and intertwined as one cannot look at any independently. But broadly, I am more comfortable with questions of policy as say opposed to clinical research. Even in that I look out for what implications the outcomes of that research could have for policy that directly impacts on the lives of people.
What do you see as the main challenges for achieving UHC in India
First, absence of a serious political commitment. Second, an implementable design and strategy developed in consultation with all stakeholders. Third, adequate funding and fourth, regular monitoring of the implementation process. Basically, in India there is no clarity of the vision we want to achieve. Merely saying high sounding words does not amount to much. Every word and every concept has organizational and fiscal implications that needs to then be converted to policy and implemented. So, though politicians do 'commit' themselves to UHC, I wonder if they understand what that implies. Most in India understand UHC as an insurance program and increasing the already highly privatized health system. But insurance is only a small part of the story – an important one no doubt that helps reduce and minimize the financial barriers to access. But more fundamental than finance is the access issue – to providers, drugs, diagnostics etc. Do we have the design right? Getting that right is a highly complex and nuanced issue, requiring a clear understanding of the strategies that should be put in place to overcome the challenges and barriers through a right mix of policies, funding, laws, incentives and a work environment. In short UHC cannot be achieved by the issue of a mere GO or a law that says ' from today there shall be UHC in India'. That kind of approach only helps gain some political points but nothing more. Everyone has their own view of what UHC means and should mean. There is a need to first get a consensus on the definition, delayer that understanding, sequence the implementation and back it all up with solid operational research. Health is ideology driven where often the people and the patients are often forgotten.
What do you hope will be the impact of the Commission on India's health system
Lancet has a huge readership and more importantly the only 'technical' journal that is read by politicians and policy makers. So Lancet can help carry and give credibility to our recommendations to those who matter.
Over the past two decades, we have had two important reports that had huge political traction – the NCMH and the HLEG. Yet, a decade and more later, we are almost where we were. Measured in terms of financial outlays, the proportion of public spending to the GDP is exactly where it was. So the Lancet Commission is yet another attempt.
Broadly, I do not expect anything profoundly new. But if our research is good and we ask the right questions, it is possible that we may come up with a better and more nuanced understanding of the issues and give a more calibrated set of recommendations and strategic options that the governments may find more feasible to adopt and implement.
Besides, the situation has changed since 2006 when the NCMH was written and 2011 when the HLEG was written. So we need to very carefully examine evidence and ground realities, the political environment and compulsions,the current developments in health policy and more importantly grasp the future trajectories in the macro economic environment so that our recommendations are in sync with the future development scenarios. Such a comprehensive understanding is necessary as policy isoften not exactly as per what evidence says. So understanding those aspects are important. Lets see. I do hope the Lancet Commission makes a difference and nudges policy forward and triggersa movement towards achieving UHC in the next two decades. It's a tough ambition but one that is worthwhile.


President Trump has until the end of January to give a deposition in ex-"Apprentice" contestant Summer Zervos' defamation suit against him, a Manhattan judge said Tuesday.
Justice Jennifer Schecter decided on the Jan. 31 deadline during a brief hearing that largely focused on scheduling in Zervos' Manhattan Supreme Court case, which she filed in January 2017.
Zervos, who has accused the President of unwanted sexual advances toward her in 2007, claims Trump slimed her during his presidential campaign by saying she lied about the alleged misconduct.
All the parties directly involved in the case have the same deadline, and their depositions can be a maximum of seven hours, Schecter also said.
Schecter made the scheduling decision after Mariann Wang and Marc Kasowitz, who represent Zervos and Trump, respectively, revealed they couldn't agree on deadlines during a conference last week.
Kasowitz, who has unsuccessfully pushed to delay the case until appeals courts decide whether Trump has presidential immunity from Zervos' suit, also made an unsuccessful pitch to postpone scheduling.
"This issue will likely reach the Supreme Court of the United States," Kasowitz said of Trump's immunity argument.
"It's a critical Constitutional issue, and our proposal with regard to the schedule is that any scheduling take place after" the Supreme Court considers the case, he said.
An unmoved Schecter said she wants paperwork that would get Zervos' case on the trial calendar to be filed in June 2019.
The proceedings also revealed that Trump wants to keep evidence related to other sexual harassment accusations out of the case.
Zervos had subpoenaed Trump's campaign for docs related to allegations of sexual misconduct as part of the "discovery," or evidence gathering, process.
During the conference between Zervos and Trump's lawyers, "It became clear that the campaign's position that any and all documents about other women … that any discovery about them, they would draw the line there," Wang said.
Trump's lawyers have maintained that other women's claims are "irrelevant," Wang also said.
"It's definitely the case, to the extent the plaintiff seeks discovery from other women who are not parties to this case, who are not making a claim of defamation, we take the position that that evidence would not be covered, he said.


There's something about September in the United States that gets Henrik Stenson to the top of his game.
Two years ago, he won the FedEx Cup with two victories in the final four tournaments of the year. He hasn't won in the US since, but finished second at last week's Barclays to vault into the top four of the current FedEx standings.
On Sunday, he made his move into the top spot at the Deutsche Bank Championship at the TPC Boston, firing a 6-under 65, the best round of the tournament to date, to move into first place.
The 39-year-old Swede was particularly strong on the front nine, with three birdies and an eagle 2 on No. 4 to hit the turn at 5-under. He is 13-under through 54 holes, giving him a one-stroke lead over fellow Top 10 player Rickie Fowler, who fired his third straight 67 on Saturday to reach 12-under.
Fowler raced out on the front nine, notching four birdies in his first eight holes, and parred the final 10 on the day.
American Sean O'Hair continued his surprising run with a 67 of his own to reach 11-under, tied for third with Australian Matt Jones, two strokes off the lead.
O'Hair has just two top 10 finishes this year, the last of which came way back in April at the RBC Heritage. Jones had three birdies in his first four holes on Sunday, but bogeys on 6 and 16 kept him from being closer to the top.
Scotland's Russell Knox is the only other player double-digit strokes under par, at 10-under following his 68.
The afternoon proved particularly cruel for former leaders Charley Hoffman and Brendon de Jonge.
Hoffman, 12-under through two rounds, dropped to 13-under with a birdie on No. 1, then imploded, committing six birdies on the next eight holes to limp into the turn with a 41.
He recovered enough to shoot even-par on the back nine, but the damage was done. His 5-over 76 was 13 shots worse than his Friday 63, and dropped him to a tie for 11th, six strokes off the lead.
He's tied there with Day 1 leader de Jonge among others. de Jonge shot a 2-over 73, making just one birdie on the day to slide from second place out of the Top 10.
The Open Championship winner Zach Johnson also fell apart on Sunday, dropping from third to a tie for 20th with a 3-over 74.
Current FedEx leader Jason Day wasn't much better, shooting a 2-over 73 to slide to a tie for 20th at 5-under.


Cosmonauts found traces of sea plankton and microscopic particles on outside of ISS.
ITAR-TASS, a Russian press agency, is reporting something so surprising that it's hard to believe: Cosmonauts have found microorganisms on the exterior of the International Space Station. Russian scientists are shocked by this discovery and can't really explain how it is possible.
We have found traces of sea plankton and microscopic particles on the illuminator surface. This should be studied further.
Plankton in these stages of development could be found on the surface of the oceans.This is not typical for Baikonur. It means that there are some uplifting air currents which reach the station and settle on its surface.
The microorganisms were found on samples collected by the cosmonauts during a space walk. It was a complete surprise when they analyzed them, as they only expected for find the contaminants produced by the engines of the incoming and outgoing spaceship traffic.
It is not clear if the organisms were growing or multiplying but, if confirmed, this discovery may give even more credibility to the theory that organic life may have spread across space traveling on comets and asteroids.

Players to watch at World Cup of Hockey
Some of the players to watch on the eight teams competing at the World Cup of Hockey in Toronto, which begins Saturday:
Patrick Kane, U.S.
The reigning NHL MVP and three-time Stanley Cup winner gets another showcase stage in international play after not producing up to expectations at the 2014 Sochi Olympics. Kane won't have usual Chicago Blackhawks teammate Jonathan Toews, but he'll likely have either 30-goal scorer Joe Pavelski or Derek Stepan as his center. They will benefit from Kane at right wing, where the Americans also have Sochi shootout hero T.J. Oshie.
Connor McDavid, North America
McDavid, 19, is already a real threat to win the Art Ross Trophy next season as the league's top scorer after posting 48 points in 45 games as a rookie. The tournament in Toronto will allow the Oilers star to show off his considerable skills against hockey's elite. Teaming up with other top youngsters like Auston Matthews, Jack Eichel, Nathan MacKinnon and Johnny Gaudreau makes North America a team to watch.
Vladimir Tarasenko, Russia
Tarasenko hasn't quite reached the Alex Ovechkin stratosphere of goal-scoring, but he's rapidly moving in that direction for the St. Louis Blues. The 24-year-old hit a career-high with 40 goals last season and his 77 goals over the past two campaigns trail only Ovechkin (103) and Tampa Bay Lightning captain Steven Stamkos (79). Like Ovechkin, he's an explosive scorer capable of creating something from nothing. Almost unnoticed as a member of Russia's disappointing 2014 Olympic squad (zero goals), Tarasenko is unlikely to go quietly on the big stage in Toronto.
Patrik Laine, Finland
Laine thought that he and not Matthews should've been the No. 1 overall pick of the 2016 draft, and at the World Cup he'll get his first chance to demonstrate why. Laine is coming off an unbelievable year that saw him thrive everywhere: from a championship-winning squad in the Finnish league, where he was playoff MVP, to a gold-medal win on home soil at the world junior championships, to the world championship in Russia, where Finland won silver. Laine turned 18 in April, but he's already exceptionally confident and an especially enticing figure to watch.
Erik Karlsson, Sweden
No other defenseman in hockey today is quite like the captain of the Ottawa Senators. Karlsson can be mesmerizing to watch for his ability to dish the puck. Over the past five NHL seasons Karlsson has 314 points, 76 more than the next closest defender, Nashville's P.K. Subban. Karlsson put up eight points in six games for Sweden at the 2014 Olympics. When good things are happening for the Swedes it's likely Karlsson is involved.
Leon Draisaitl, Europe
One of only a handful of German players in the NHL, Draisaitl is easily the brightest young star suiting up for a veteran-laden Europe squad. His first full season for the Oilers was promising, as the 20-year-old former No. 3 overall pick rung up 19 goals and 51 points. Skilled with a sturdy six-foot-one frame, Draisaitl and has been compared to Los Angeles Kings captain Anze Kopitar and the two will get a chance to play alongside one another at the World Cup. The Europeans are rich with veterans like Kopitar, Zdeno Chara and Marian Hossa, but short on excitable young talent. Draisaitl brings that element.
Jakub Voracek, Czech Republic
The Czechs could struggle without injured center David Krejci, so their tournament hinges on goaltending and Voracek leading the offense. Going into the first season of a $66 million, eight-year contract with the Philadelphia Flyers, the talented winger has plenty of pressure on him.
Carey Price, Canada
When healthy, Price is without a doubt the best goaltender in the world. After missing almost an entire NHL season with a knee injury, the star of the Montreal Canadiens is Canada's backbone. If he plays like he did in Sochi, the rest of the teams may be fighting for second place.

2008: The Bishop of Norwich has announced the appointment of the first female archdeacon ever to be appointed to the Diocese of Norwich.
The Revd Jan McFarlane, 43, currently Director of Communications and Bishop's Chaplain in the Diocese, is to be the next Archdeacon of Norwich, while continuing her role as Diocesan Director of Communications.
Jan will become the most senior female appointment ever in the Norwich Diocese and will succeed the Venerable Clifford Offer, who retires from full-time ministry at the beginning of August.
Jan will become one of only 9 females among the 112 archdeacons in the Church of England. The Archdeaconry of Norwich covers Norwich and greater Norwich and comprises 42 parishes and 50 full and part-time clergy.
Jan trained at Cranmer Hall, Durham and was ordained at Lichfield Cathedral in 1993. She served in the Stafford Team Ministry and at Ely Cathedral before moving to the Diocese of Norwich to take up the post of full time Communications Officer. The following year, her role was combined with that of Chaplain to the Bishop of Norwich, and she has held both posts for the past eight years. She is also one of the Diocesan representatives on the Church of England's General Synod. Before ordination she worked as a Speech Therapist in the NHS in North Staffordshire.
Jan will take up her new appointment early next year.
An archdeacon is a senior member of the clergy responsible to the diocesan bishop for an archdeaconry. The archdeacon shares with the bishop the pastoral care of the clergy and undertakes much of the practical, legal and administrative work involved in the mission and ministry of a diocese.
Pictured above is Rev Jan McFarlane.
I congratulate Jan on her history making appointment. May God bless hr in her new post.
The right choice and we've got someone with great sense of humour.
There's hope for the C of E yet!!
With prayers for the new role.
just wanted to say I am pleased for you and wish you well in your new post.
( Mark Cranmer Hall 1991-95.) Bishop John Pritchard (JLP ) will be beaming from ear to ear.
Thank you Jan for being a model of grace, wisdom and patience and a great pioneer.

ABOUT THE WORK ABOUT THE ARTIST MORE FROM THE ARTIST ABOUT THE GALLERY SIMILAR WORKS
Medium: Archival pigment print on baryta paper Edition 3/5. Edo Bertoglio became involved in the downtown art and music scenes of the late 70s and early 80s. Since his arrival in New York and his entrance into the artistic community which revolved around Andy Warhol's Factory. These portraits immortalised the people who made up his days and his work in that period.
1951 , Switzerland
After graduating in direction and editing at the "Conservatoire Libre du Cinéma Français" (Paris 1975), he moved to London and to New York in 1976, where he lived for fourteen years. In 1981 he directed "Downtown 81". The movie shows a typical day of the young artist Jean Michel Basquiat and gives a view of the active artistic community of New York. He worked as a photographer for many Americans, Japanese, French and Italian magazines, specialized in fashion, art and costume. He regularly collaborated with the "Andy Warhol's Interview" magazine from 1978 to 1982. In 2005 he completed his second movie, "Face Addict" successfully presented at the 58° International Movie Festival of Locarno. It's about the story of the artistic community of New York in the late seventies – early eighties, known as "Downtown Scene", a journey into the discovery of New York 20 years later - through the protagonists of the musical and visual arts' scene. He's currently producing and directing TV and cinema's documentaries, as well as photographic projects.

Chapter 284: Good Enlightenment Helper
"Pea…" The pea let out a celebratory sound. In a blink of an eye, the pea reverted back to the size of a basketball and flew towards her.
"Peapea?"
"Pea."
Zhu Yao sized up the pea from left to right. It was really the pea that she picked up.
Just what did it do earlier? It swallowed the rampaging demonic beast? She had raised it for so many years, and had yet to see it eat anything. Did it need to have such a heavy taste right from the beginning?
Zhu Yao grabbed onto the green ball and shook it wildly. "Peapea, you're alright, right? Don't eat something as strange as that, hey."
"That is a demonic beast! Hurry and spit it out! What if you're allergic to it?" She began to locate its mouth in a fluster. However, she could not see even the tiniest of slit around this round pea.
The pea struggled for a few moments. "Pea…"
"Be obedient, hurry and spit it out. I will water you in the future, is that enough for you?"
"Pea pea pea!" The pea shook and leapt out of her hands. It once again grew large, and opened its mouth in an instant.
Ahmu..
Her vision suddenly turned dark.
Zhu Yao: "…"
Little Bai: "…"
Ye Qingcang: "…"
The pea, had swallowed the three of them as well.
I'm sorry, it seems I have been raising something strange.
Zhu Yao was swallowed.
She was swallowed by the pea she was raising.
When she regained her senses, her surroundings were pitch-black, without the slightest hint of light. The strange thing was, she was not feeling any pain. Rather, she was feeling really comfortable.
It was soft under her feet, and it felt pretty good. Not to mention it had a slight elasticity to it. She could not help but step a few more times. Just this texture quality alone could beat every branded carpet. Just as she wanted to look at it carefully, a cry sounded.
Zhu Yao was shocked, as she immediately left that carpet. Why was this voice a little familiar?
"Little tyrant?"
"Grandma?"
Zhu Yao cast an fire art, and the surroundings instantly brightened. Little tyrant was lying next to her, and his chest was printed with two familiar footprints.
"Are you alright?" She pulled little tyrant off the ground.
Little Bai shook his head. "I'm fine. I simply felt that I was pounded on a few times earlier."
"Hohoho…" It definitely wasn't her!
Zhu Yao patted on his chest, destroying the crime evidence. "It's fine as long as you're alright. Where's the other one?"
"Granny, I'm over here." Ye Qingcang's voice sounded from the side, as he stood up as well. There wasn't the slightest injury on his body… nor were there any footprints!
Very good, the entire party was at full health! Only then did Zhu Yao begin to inspect her surroundings. It was really deep, like the passageway of a cave.
"Weren't we eaten? Why are we here?" Ye Qingcang asked.
Zhu Yao touched the stone wall, faintly sensing the energy ripples left by a teleportation formation. "We seemed to have been transferred to another place. This seemed like an underground passage. If my guess is correct, this should be the depths of that cave earlier."
"Within the cave!" The two young pioneers were stunned. That cave had a complicated terrain. How were they going to get out?
"What's that?" Little tyrant suddenly pointed to an area in front of them.
The passage that was still pitch-black earlier faintly emitted out a red glow. They took a few steps forward, and realized that a demonic beast with the height of an average human was presently curled up like a ball at the center. It seemed to have fallen into deep slumber.
"Isn't this that…" Ye Qingcang's face was covered in astonishment.
"Concealed Rock Beast." Zhu Yao hurriedly stepped forward and used her spiritual energy to inspect it. She realized that the aura within its body was calm, nor were there any serious injuries within. At that moment, she heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it did not self-destruct.
Little tyrant walked over as well, and carefully inspected it on his own. "Why did it turn red? And why is it much smaller than before?
Zhu Yao carefully looked at this beast. Its body had turned red, and its figure was several times smaller than before. However, the spiritual energy emitting from its body was much firmer, and even the wounds on its body were beginning to heal. However, because the injuries it suffered were too heavy, it would most likely take more than a year for it to awaken.
"It mutated!" Zhu Yao said firmly. "Its breakthrough failed and it fell to a third rank demonic beast. However, because its breakthrough was forcefully stopped, it led to a mutation which made it red." Haah, she wondered if this was a good outcome. Mutated beasts were much stronger than regular beasts, but it had fallen a rank and had sunk into deep slumber. It seemed like it was going to spend its time sleeping for a long time.
"Pea…" A green pea rolled out from the red demonic beast's claw. As though it had shrunk, it turned into the size of a pearl.
"It's that pea from earlier!" Little tyrant was shocked, as he immediately summoned his own weapon.
However, that pea merely rolled on the ground for a short while more, before it stopped moving completely.
Zhu Yao stepped forward, squatted down and picked up the pea. She gave it a close inspection, yet she did not discover any anomaly.
"Grandma, what is this?"
"I don't know either!" Zhu Yao shook her head. Back then when she picked it up, it was indeed a regular pea. However, it never expected by swallowing the Concealed Rock Beast, and sending it here, it could suppress its rampage. She faintly sensed that there was something irregular with the pea, yet it did not have that much spiritual intellect at all, and could only repeat the word 'pea' over and over again.
"Most likely, it just wanted to bring us to where the Concealed Rock Beast was earlier, it did not have any evil intentions." Furthermore, it seemed to be the one which suppressed the rampage of this demonic beast. However, as to how it did it, she had no clue.
"Let's hurry and leave this place then?" Zhu Yao kept the pea. "The terrain of this cave is complicated, and we have no idea where the exit is. You two are unable to abstain from food yet either, so we can't stay here for long."
"What about that demonic beast?" Little Bai pointed at the beastie on the ground.
Zhu Yao pondered for a moment. Shen then reinforced it with a few defensive formations. "There shouldn't be any problems now."
Only then did she bring the two young pioneers along with her on the passageway.
After going deeper did they truly realize just how huge the cave was. The place was filled with several forks, with each passage splitting to another tens of passages. They walked and turned, to the point where they were beginning to go dizzy. They basically had no idea where they were.
They themselves were unaware of how long they had walked, to the point where even Zhu Yao, who held the highest cultivation out of the three, was beginning to feel a little tired as well. "Let us rest for a while."
Only then did the three finally stop. Zhu Yao turned around to take a look. Little tyrant was already drenched from sweat, while Ye Qingcang at the back had a miserably pale complexion, panting heavily. He had the lowest cultivation among the three, so it was extremely difficult for him to keep up with her pace. Yet, he did not complain at all during this entire journey, nor did he signal to stop. He truly was a man among men.
Zhu Yao sighed. She set down a spiritual energy gathering formation in the surroundings, and instructed them to replenish their spiritual energy. The two youths obediently nodded, and began to enter a meditative state.
She pulled out the pea and inspected it for a while, yet she was still unable to find anything different about it. It was exactly the same as described by the girly Little Qian. Forget about awakening its spiritual intellect, it did not have a soul of its own.
"Granny!" Ye Qingcang who was meditating at the side suddenly called out. He was presently looking at her with a confused expression.
"Mn?" What is it?
He said with serious look. "Qingcang has a question which he has been really wanting to ask for a while."
"I have never loved before!"
"Ah?" He was stunned.
"Uh… Sorry." This was all purely on reflex. "Continue."
"May I ask granny why you wanted to save that demonic beast?" He said, perplexed. "Demonic beasts and human practitioners are in opposing factions in the first place. Though we can take them in as spiritual beasts, generally, it's either we die or they do. Even if granny has saved that demonic beast today, most likely in the future, it will still be killed by other practitioners."
"Mn… That's a very sophistical question." Zhu Yao stroked her chin. She pondered for a moment before replying. "Actually, I didn't actually have any reason. When I first saw that beast, it clearly could swallow me instantly, but it didn't do so. It had sufficient trust in me, believing that I wouldn't have it. I simply wanted to repay the equal amount of trust it had for me, that's all. It didn't kill me, so I helped him pluck out his tooth… I mean, pluck out the trident." Believe me, that tooth was an accident.
"As for what happened next, you saw it for yourself as well. Zhao Li used an illusion of me to lure it out. The reason why even though it was injured to such an extent, yet it still continued to hold its ground, was because it wanted to protect that false image. What it wanted to protect with its life was me. Since even a demonic beast can hold such heavy sense of righteousness, as a human being, why can't I do it as well? So, saving it with my life on the line is something I ought to do too. As for the future you mentioned…"
Zhu Yao smiled. "As for what the future holds, it's all in the future. Probably it will still die one day, or because it's still alive it might even harm other practitioners. The cause and effect of the world is unclear in the first place. If we have to think about so many causes and effects before we do anything, then when will we ever have the time to do anything? What I can do, is follow one's conscience. At the very least, I did not betray my conscience earlier."
Ye Qingcang seemed to have some enlightenment, as though he had understood something. However, the next moment, it was as though he grew even more perplexed, his eyes turning hollow as he silently chanted. "Follow one's conscience… Follow one's conscience…"
What's happening to him now?
"Hey, are you alright?" Zhu Yao planned on patting him.
A dense gust of spiritual energy suddenly blew out form his body.
"Woah…" Zhu Yao was astonished, her palm turned a little numb.
The spiritual energy in the surroundings suddenly stirred in disarray. As if they were being attracted by something, the five elemental spiritual energies madly poured towards Ye Qingcang.
"Granny…" He had a perplexed and flustered look on his face. The overwhelming spiritual energy had caused him to feel a little unbearable, as his face began to turn pale. Beads of sweat fell off from his forehead.
"Hurry and calm yourself, guide the spiritual energy into your body." Zhu Yao said with a sunken voice. "Focus your senses, don't need to panic. You just have to keep thinking about what you comprehended earlier!"
Only then did he cross his legs and sat back down. Taking in a deep breath, he guided the gathered spiritual energy into his body.
Little tyrant was also startled awake by this sudden change. "Grandma, this is?"
"He received a sudden enlightenment." Zhu Yao explained simply as she pulled Little Bai a little further away. After adjusting the spiritual energy gathering formation a little, she helped keep a look out for him.
Little Bai had a perplexed look on his face, as he blankly looked at Qingcang for a while. A hint of envy flashed past his eyes, before sitting next to Zhu Yao to keep a look out for him as well.
Ye Qingcang meditated for about eleven hours, before the surrounding spiritual energy slowly calmed down. Furthermore, his cultivation had also leapt from the first level of Essence to the fifth level of Essence. As if he was sitting on an aeroplane, his speed of improvement was beyond compare.
When he opened his eyes, a day had already passed. Taking a deep breath, she sensed the expansive spiritual energy in his own body. A smiling intent flashed past his plain face, as he looked at Zhu Yao excitedly. "Granny…"
"I saw it, I saw it." As expected of the main protagonist. He leveled up five times in an instant.
"Congratulations, junior-martial brother Ye." Little Bai smiled as well.
Ye Qingcang took a deep breath, as if wanting to suppress the excitement in the depths of his heart. Standing up, he respectfully bowed in front of Zhu Yao. "Thank you granny for your guidance. Qingcang was about to break through this mental barrier and strengthen his state of mind because of it. Qingcang will never ever forget his eternal gratitude for granny."
"There's no need for to be so exaggerated." Zhu Yao waved her hands and then patted on his shoulder. She could not help but feel a little excited in the depths of her heart as well. "I simply said a few casual thoughts of mine, being able to receive an enlightenment was all your own efforts. Little one, not bad. Your future prospects are looking good."
He then smiled shyly.
She never expected that she had the ability to allow others to receive sudden enlightenments. For a moment, Zhu Yao felt she was pretty awesome. Her acting power had risen a level, you know? She suddenly had thoughts of taking in disciples, what should she do? The main protagonist rose by five levels just from her saying a few words, if she were to take in disciples, wouldn't that…
The main protagonist seemed to be a bug. If he were to raise his level too quickly, wouldn't that mean that he had taken huge steps towards his goal of becoming a global idol? The date of the residents wanting to walk on the path of bloodshed to deityhood would then be…
The hell!
Just what had she done?
"I say, fellow student Cang…" Zhu Yao pulled onto Ye Qingcang's hand, her face looked as if she wanted to cry. "If I were to say… What I said earlier are all lies, would you believe me?" Promise me, alright? Let's try this all over again?
"Ah?"
Was it too late for regrets now?
There was only one sickness in the world that couldn't be cured, and that was blabbermouth-ism!
Because she did not control her mouth for a moment, she allowed the main protagonist to receive a sudden enlightenment. Realizing this truth, tears fell from Zhu Yao's eyes. Along the way, she could not help but shoot resentful lightwaves at a certain someone.
"Granny…" He began to look a little uneasy. "Was there somewhere which Qingcang was unable to do well?"
"No, it's exactly because you have done too well!" It was way too much.
He grew even more flustered, thinking that she was dissatisfied with him. "Granny, don't be angry. My spirit veins are of poor aptitude, and has only risen to the fifth level of Essence in a single moment of sudden enlightenment. Don't worry, I will continue to work hard in the future."
"You must not!"
"Uh… I mean, you have already done really well." Don't continue to raise your level, it's really scary, alright?
Only then did he nod doubtfully.
In regards to Ye Qingcang, Zhu Yao really did not know what was best. From what she's seeing, she was really unable to suppress a good youth like him who possessed the correct three views on life. The key thing here was, even if she forced herself to be heartless, she did not know just which aspect of him she should begin from.
According to the scenario, during the rise of this inspirational youth, the only thing that could be considered as a cheat, was the Pellet Hall's inheritance. However, if not for his own comprehending abilities, even if he had an inheritance it wouldn't have been of any use.
In the modern era, there were five thousand years worth of knowledge that anyone could pick up and learn, yet not many people like Edison came into prominence. In the end, the reason why he became a renown pellet refining master, was truly because of his own capabilities and comprehending abilities. Not to mention the set of heaven-defying cultivation technique he crafted on his own later on.
Presently, she was encountering a dead knot that could not be untied at all.
"Grandma, there's light up front!" Little tyrant pointed towards the front, and as expected, rays of light could be faintly seen. Though it was really dusky, a faint fresh scent was in the air.
Sis Yao, you dig your own grave, ah!
Kyaakuma says:
I really want to read about other character's POV… just what do they think about Zhu Yao's moments of crazy outburst…
Surnamed Ye: I'm a boy from a poor family of a small village and once met a dying cultivator…etc…today i joined a group of people on a mission to subdue a fourth ranked beast, all the senior brothers and sisters were counting on me to draw the beast's attention..oh, there's also an old grandma joining us. Did the sect send an elder in case something bad happened? Looks like the sect is not all that bad, but those bullies still took my resources and nobody cared.
In front of the cave
Today we arrived at the cave of that fourth ranked beast, it is my turn to draw its attention for everyone.
Looking at the old grandma before entering* She told me to be careful while nobody else did, except for senior brother Bai.
Mother,father. This beast is about to eat me, forgive this unfilial son..etc…eh? there's suddenly a rock wall in front of me?Did the old grandma save me? I blanked out until she told me to run.
Not good at POVS but whatever
A Lim says:
Well, for what it's worth (and whether or not it was your intention), you made me crack a smile and chuckle – so here, have an upvote.
thnx for the chapter
and more cliffhangers
Kon13 says:
She just missed a good opportunity to teach him that "killing is bad".
Damn it Zhu Yao! You had one job! Only one! Eliminate the bug. It shouldn't be possible to forget herself concerning him even for a moment.
MondSemmel says:
There's something adorable about Zhu Yao briefly falling into narcissism, before immediately realizing her mistake <3.
Huh, I wonder what enlightenment the kiddo got.
Anra7777 says:
Hmm… my opinion is rather that she *should* take him in as a disciple. If she cultivates in him the mindset of "conscience" instead of "strength through blood," won't the world who idolizes him become a kinder place?
Ale. A. Santi says:
just gotta teach him iron clad morals so he doesnt kills on a rampage

Detroit Automakers Reinstating Mask Mandate for Workers
Move comes after Big Three/UAW task force agrees to plan.
With the number of COVID-19 cases on the rise again, the Big Three automakers and UAW agreed to reinstate mask mandates for hourly workers across the U.S. However, they did stop short of requiring vaccines.
Workers at Ford's Dearborn Truck plant, above, and all other facilities will be required to wear masks starting Wednesday.
The decision came in the wake of new guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's for workplaces. CDC officials warned July 30 that fully vaccinated people should wear masks indoors in public places in "areas of substantial and high transmission."
The new recommendations are a result of the impact of the Delta variant of COVID, which is easier to catch, according to officials.
"The Task Force met and, after reviewing the recently changed CDC guidelines and community COVID-19 trends, decided it is best for worker safety to resume wearing masks in all worksites," the UAW said in a statement.
"While we know that masks can be uncomfortable, the spread of the Delta variant and recent data outlining the alarmingly high rate of transmission among those unvaccinated is a serious health threat."
Masks are required regardless of the person's vaccination status, according to the UAW, which reiterated its support for getting vaccinated.
UAW President Ray Curry informed union members in a letter about the mask mandate while urging them to get vaccinated, if possible.
"We are urging all UAW members and their families to get vaccinated," UAW President Ray Curry told members in a letter Tuesday, according to Reuters.
"The science is telling us very clearly that the only way to get back to normal is to reach a heightened level of immunity However, we also know that for some, there are religious and health reasons for not getting vaccinated."
Not just the Detroit automakers on alert
Japanese automaker Nissan Motor Co. also reinstated its mask mandate for all U.S. employees, according to Reuters.
"The health and safety of employees remains our highest priority," the company said in a statement emailed to TheDetroitBureau.com. "Due to the increase in COVID-19 cases and modified guidance from the CDC, Nissan is reinstating mask protocols at our U.S.-based facilities. "We continue to work closely with local and state healthcare agencies to monitor and evaluate COVID-19 case data to make adjustments to our safety protocols where needed."
A masked employee in the body shop at Stellantis' Detroit Assembly Complex – Mack plant inspects a Jeep Grand Cherokee L.
During an online conference call with the media last week, Toyota's Chief Administrative Officer Chris Reynolds said the company was considering reinstating some of its COVID-related protocols but had not yet made a final decision about what may happen.
"We've always told our teammates the virus runs the show here," he said.
The company retained some of its protocols, but much of it — for example, wearing a mask — was voluntary. Reynolds noted the company's entry questionnaire and the temperature checks were eliminated as they were found not to be as effective as expected, plus the company had no confirmed cases.
Hyundai Motor America paused plans to bring employees back to its California headquarters and is on high alert for its other U.S. facilities. Mercedes-Benz's U.S. operations moved quickly after the new CDC guidelines were issued.
"We informed employees that, effective immediately, MBUSA will require all employees and contractors to wear an approved mask while indoors at all company facilities nationwide," said Rob Moran, the head of U.S. public relations, told TheDetroitBureau last week. "This revised requirement," he added, "is independent of vaccination status and location."

Q: How to get Timezone by passing abbreviation? I'm using Momentjs and as of now i'm getting date and time by doing the following steps
 var TimeZone = moment.tz("Asia/Kolkata").format('LLLL');

but i need to get time and date by passing abbreviation for instance
var TimeZone = moment.tz("IST").format('LLLL');

How can i achieve this?

A: I don't know Momentjs but I can provide u JS solution to do the same thing.
As i have understood from ur problem that ".tz" method only accepts full time zone name instead of short form. So u can use JS prototypal inheritance to achieve this outcome.
What u have to do is make another method of ur own with a dictionary object and extend "moment" object with ur features. Refer the code:
var tzMap = {
    "IST" :  "Asia/Kolkata",
    "UST" : "America/LA"   // this I only took for example i don't know it exist
                              or not
}
moment.__proto__.timezone = function(tzStr){
    if(Object.hasOwnProperty(tzStr)){
         tzStr = tzMap[tzStr];
    }
    return this.tz(tzStr);
}

// now instead of using
// moment.tz("Asia/Kolkata").format('LLLL');

// U can use
 var TimeZone = moment.timezone("Asia/Kolkata").format('LLLL');
// or
var TimeZone = moment.timezone("IST").format('LLLL');


For the mushrooms: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Increase the heat to high, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown and soft, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
For the mac and cheese: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 9 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Transfer to a large bowl.
Put the milk into a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat.
Heat the oil in a large ovenproof saute pan over medium heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the cauliflower, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Cook until slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup of water, cover loosely with foil and cook in the oven until soft.
To make the bechamel, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in 4 cups of the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and the flour taste has been cooked out, about 7 minutes, adding more milk if the sauce is too thick.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and transfer to a blender with 1 cup of the milk and blend until smooth. Add the cauliflower puree to the bechamel and stir until combined. Slowly whisk in the fontina, Monterey Jack, asiago and Parmigiano-Reggiano until smooth, adding more hot milk if too thick. Mix in the nutmeg. Pour the sauce over the pasta, add the mushrooms and stir well to combine.
Butter a 10-inch baking dish, transfer the pasta mixture to it and bake until bubbly and the top is lightly golden brown, about 30 minutes.
For the breadcrumb topping: While the mac and cheese is baking, melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the anchovy paste and cook for 1 minute. Add the chiles and garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the breadcrumbs and cook until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley and season with salt and pepper.
Serve the mac and cheese topped with some of the breadcrumbs and a drizzle of white truffle oil. Garnish with parsley leaves.


The Backflow Prevention Program is a requirement of the Safe Drinking Water Act (1974, amended in 1986 and 1996), which was written to protect human health from contaminants in drinking water and to prevent contamination of existing groundwater supplies.
The Act, as amended, requires the installation and maintenance of an approved backflow prevention assembly at the water service connection whenever a potential hazard is determined to exist in a customer's system. Without proper protection devices, cross connections can occur.

At the end of every meeting, every dinner party, or every learning session, my friend Andrei calls for appreciations.
The format is simple: Each person, in turn, says one thing they appreciate about themselves, and one thing they appreciate about each of the others who are there.
It's genius. It helps everyone leave feeling really, really warm and happy. It provides a mirror where we each learn how we contributed to the experience of our peers, whether they be friends, acquaintances, or colleagues.
"I appreciate that I rallied and made it out even though I was tired."
"I appreciate that although I felt frustrated, I didn't get defensive when I heard your feedback."
"I appreciate all the preparation that I did to make this meeting go smoothly."
Appreciation can be a rich well of interpersonal learning, if intentionally incorporated into a learning culture. As you explore the potential of bringing peer-to-peer learning into your organization or learning ecosystem, remember the power of structure reciprocal appreciations.
There are many ways to incorporate these and I'd be happy to share my experiences and help develop the kind of learning chrysalis that helps new cultural ideas like this become the norm.
