Today in Racing: 3 June
Michele Lupini
There were four grands prix over the years on 3 June… Peter Collins and Paul Frère's Ferraris held Stirling Moss' Maserati off to win a damp 1956 Belgian Grand Prix – Moss had taken over Cesare Perdisa's car before charging back to third.
The other three races were all in Monaco, starting with Bruce McLaren's Cooper-Climax (above) holding Phil Hill and Lorenzo Bandini's Ferraris to win in 1962.
Jackie Stewart's Tyrrell 006 Cosworth led every lap to take his third and final Monaco win from Lotus 72 Cosworth teammates Emerson Fittipaldi and Ronnie Peterson on a newly revised track in 1973 as he equaled compatriot Jim Clark's record 25 Grand Prix victories.
Alain Prost benefited the 1984 Grand Prix run in heavy rain being shortened to 31 laps as to take his first of four Monaco wins off pole position in his McLaren-TAG Porsche MP4/2. Second-placed rookie Ayrton Senna's Toleman-Hart had scythed through the field and was bearing down on Prost when the chequered flag flew. René Arnoux was third for Ferrari.
Elsewhere in racing, Alfred Levegh, drove a Mors to win the 1908 Bordeaux road race, ten years before Marcel Lehoux won the '28 Tunis Grand Prix Bugatti T35C. In 1934, Manfred von Brauchitsch won the Nürburgring Eifelrennen in a Mercedes-Benz W25 and Carlo Felice Trossi the Montreux Grand Prix in an Alfa Romeo B/P3, while Bernard Chaudé's Bugatti took the '36 Montlhéry Indépendants Trophy.
Stirling Moss won the '61 Brands Hatch Silver City Trophy in a Lotus 18 Climax on the same day that Syd van der Vyver took the South African F1 Rand Trophy at Grand Central in his Lotus 18 Alfa Romeo.
Still in South Africa, Dave Charlton won the '72 Kyalami Republic Day Trophy in his Lotus 72D Cosworth, while Indy racing winners on this day included Tom Sneva, Paul Tracy, Al Unser, Jr, Kenny Brack, Tony Kanaan Scott Dixon, Graham Rahal and Ryan Hunter-Reay.
In World rallying, there have been five Acropolis rallies on 3 June – Bjorn Waldegard won in 1977 driving a Ford Escort RS1800, lady legend Michele Mouton's Audi Quattro won in '82, Markku Alen's Lancia Delta HF '87, Didier Auriol in a Lancia Delta HF Integrale in '92 and Marcus Gronholm '07 in a Ford Focus RS. Colin McRae also drove a Ford Focus RS to win in Cyprus 2001.
On the day that Champ Car legend Fred Frame, occasional F1 racer Jean-Pierre Jaussaud and NASCAR star Jamie McMurray were born, sportscar racer Erwin Bauer (45) died after his Ferrari crashed on the slow-down lap at the Nürburgring in 1958. Bauer had not noticed the chequered flag and kept on racing.

Our Exclusive Guest Editorial
By Jennifer Fielder
CEO, American Lands Council
Western Americans treasure the scenic splendor and abundant natural riches of this beautiful place that we call home. When it comes to our public lands, the vast majority of us desire abundant recreation, safe, vibrant communities, and healthy air, water, and wildlife.
Unfortunately, federal mismanagement of millions of acres of federally controlled lands has been increasingly marked by catastrophic wildfires, smoke filled summers, polluted water, decimated wildlife, blocked access, and economic decline. Slow or poor decision making by East Coast politicians and out-of-state administrators has repeatedly caused unnecessary hardships and disasters, costing hundreds of millions of dollars and way too many lives.
As more and more people realize that we can and must do better, more and more are realizing that it is time to bring land management decisions closer to home — where they belong. Yes, it is time to have an honest conversation about transferring federal lands to willing states.
For example, few realize that when it comes to public land management, western states out-perform federal land managers by an average of 10:1 or better. In fact, the federal government consistently loses money on its version of land management while states that govern their own lands consistently generate positive cash flows.
Millions of acres of State-owned lands throughout the West currently offer a variety of activities including farming, ranching, logging, mining, parks, wilderness, hunting, fishing, historic preservation, and recreation. These activities on state lands consistently generate funds for management of the land and for local schools, roads, and public safety.
There is a group of die-hard environmentalists who disdain the idea that states can responsibly govern their own lands and resources. The notion that we can't afford it, or that states would sell off all our majestic mountains and hang "no trespassing" signs on all our favorite fishing holes are their favorite preposterous talking points.
They also like to say the state will run ranchers off the land. Keep in mind, the federal government and the transfer opponents are the ones doing that.
The American Lands Council is a nationwide network of elected officials and others who are working to ensure greater accessibility, healthier conditions, and sustainable economic solutions for our public lands.
Our proposed Transfer of Public Lands Act (a federal bill) addresses all the concerns we've heard and provides a clear path forward from success.
1. STATES CAN GO AT THEIR OWN PACE: Through optional, incremental land transfers, States can acquire specific pieces of federally controlled public land whenever they are ready to manage new areas responsibly.
2. MINERAL, GRAZING & WATER RIGHTS ARE PROTECTED: States must honor all existing valid rights and uses, as well as contracts that were in place prior to the transfer. Safeguards against fee increases are built in to provide certainty.
3. LOCAL VOICES ARE STRENGTHENED: States must coordinate with affected counties to ensure that management plans for the newly acquired public lands are consistent with local plans and priorities.
4. PROMISES TO KEEP IT PUBLIC MUST BE UPHELD: States must administer each piece of public land as described in the legislature's application for conveyance. If the application says it will be public land, the State must keep it public.
5. RESOURCE REVENUES PAY FOR MANAGEMENT: Income derived from resource royalties will pay for ongoing maintenance, management, and wildfire control — making state ownership of the public lands economically sustainable.
6. STATE & LOCAL BUDGETS GET A BOOST: After land management costs are covered, excess revenues from natural resource production may be divided between state and local governments to support schools, roads, and public safety.
We invite you to learn more and join us at www.AmericanLandsCouncil.org. By working, speaking, and acting together, we can achieve what nearly all Western Americans want — abundant recreation, safe, vibrant communities, and healthy air, water, and wildlife.
Jennifer Fielder is a Montana State Senator and avid outdoorswoman. She has been CEO of American Lands Council since December 2015.

by working with them on their specific risk challenges.
Organisations are increasingly realising that managing for a successful future is the same as managing their risks and opportunities in the best way.
increased risk management activity in UK Government agencies.
We aim to support such trends by evolving and promoting improved risk management techniques for the identification, assessment, quantification and monitoring of risk.
We think this will make risk management easier, more effective and more visible to stakeholders. Above all it will enable risk management to assume its proper role as a way of viewing and thinking about management in general: helping organisations to shape their business future.
To do this we currently provide advice on risk management systems and tools, and on specific risk issues. We support contract bid teams, project teams and corporate risk teams in understanding and managing their risk agenda.
The managing director of The Risk Agenda is Andy Garlick. Andy has thirty five years' experience in risk. This started with work on nuclear risk assessment in the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority. Since then he has held senior positions involving the development of a number of risk consulting businesses. These included the risk management business of AEA Technology, followed by Risk Solutions, the management consulting practice of AEA Technology, and Manex (UK) Limited.
He has worked with clients in the nuclear, transport, oil and gas, chemical and government sectors.
His mission during this time has been to make risk methods more accessible and more business-focussed. He has seen risk management move from being a peripheral and esoteric activity, mainly concerned with safety risks, to become a core business function.
He has been very involved in the day-to-day support of clients, most recently the Metronet team which bid for and won two of the three London Underground infrastructure maintenance companies. These two deals were worth around £17bn over 30 years.
He is also a Fellow of the Institute of Risk Management and is currently on the organising committee of both their North West group, Networking Northwest, and their Special Interest Group on PPP/PFI.
Although The Risk Agenda is a small firm, we have numerous connections with other consulting organisations which enables us to set up and participate in larger assignment teams.
We are happy to work with other firms in an associate role and the management of larger assignments is a core competence of The Risk Agenda.
The Risk Agenda helps its clients by carrying out specific risk analyses, by supporting the development of their own risk processes, and through general management consulting. We also plan to make the tools we use available as products for the benefit of our clients.
We work with clients to identify the risks they face, or may face, and the opportunities open to them. This leads on to prioritisation of the risk issues and the development of management plans for the significant risks.
We specialise both in working with senior managers and in using workshop environments to elicit the broad range of issues which needs to form the input to the analysis.
We also specialise in presenting the results in quantitative ways which provide the optimum means of measuring risk. We have techniques for ensuring that quantitative results are easily obtained, are useful and are credible.
As a result of many years of working with clients to develop risk registers and risk models we think there is a missing link: the risk map. The aim of the risk map is to provide a clear model of the system which can be used both to refine the risk register and create the model.
You can see more on risk maps and their benefits on our risk mapping page.
We work with clients to apply the latest thinking on effective risk management to their unique environment with its specific systems, processes and culture.
Because we believe strongly that risk management is not an additional or new activity, but one that has always been the responsibility of managers, it is essential that the more formal approach recognises this.
We help organisations to identify issues, analyse them and find solutions. Our style is consultative yet rigorous.
We have considerable experience of providing training, both in risk and in consulting development. For example, we previously offered a joint course with RedAmber Consulting on Practical Risk Tools including running risk workshops and developing risk models under the auspices of the Institute of Risk Management.
Given the number and range of assignments that The Risk Agenda has been involved in it is inevitable that the work we do becomes standardised. Our aim is to move on to the next challenges and to support this we shall try to crystallise the approaches and deliver them as products that our clients can use.
Potential examples include risk database and risk quantification tools. We have now made our risk modelling tool Natural Monte Carlo available to people who are interested. You can download it from our software page. See also our resources page.
Please visit the contact page if you would like to talk to us about these products and services.

Play is like a spring that bubbles up from deep within a child. It is so fundamental to the make-up of the child that it is often hard to separate play from learning. Whether children are working on new physical skills, social relations, or cognitive content, they approach life with a playful spirit.


I live in beautiful Los Angeles with my two charming sons, husband, husky, and mini dauschund. I work as a local in NYC, SF, PDX. I believe that dressing celebrities, athletes, musician, artists, models & babies are all just as fun and important. I love what I do and am fluent in many genres. I am incredibly lucky to live the life that I live and I cannot wait to share my talents with you.

Couple spreads awareness of boating dangers after losing son to carbon monoxide poisoning
Afton Taylor died in 2019 after carbon monoxide poisoning on a routine boat trip: his parents want to warn others
By: WEWS Staff
MASSILLON, Ohio — Afton Taylor died as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning on a routine boat trip in 2019. Now, his parents want to warn others.
Water is the backdrop of some of Krissy and Doug Taylor's best memories.
Doug grew up on his father's boat and, as tradition, began taking his kids on that same boat when they were young, too.
"It's a boat I'd been on for 20 years. We are very seasoned boaters," he said.
Doug is a North Canton firefighter. He said he always took proper safety precautions on the boat, especially with his children.
June 30, 2019, started out like any other trip to Salt Fork State Park. The couple brought their 7-year-old son Afton and his younger brother out on the boat.
"We were just boating as we normally do," said Krissy.
"It was one of the best days we've ever had. He didn't even fight with his brother that day," said Doug.
That day turned into a tragedy as they were getting ready to leave.
"We've been going through no-wake zones with dangling feet in the water for as long as I can remember," said Doug Taylor.
Afton was sitting in the back of the boat as it was moving at a slow speed in the no-wake zone.
"I looked over [to see] if he was OK, he gave me a thumbs-up, I went back to rolling up a rope to make sure everything was secure for the trip, and then he was gone," said Doug. "That was the last time we saw him before we had to identify his body."
The couple came to the realization that Afton fell off the boat. Officials searched for the little boy for hours and the next day, using sonar equipment, they found his body. It was concluded that he drowned.
"We knew our son could swim. We thought that was very odd," said Krissy.
"My son was a swimmer. He's been in the water since he was 6 months old," added Doug.
It was a month later when the official report came out: Afton died of carbon monoxide poisoning.
"He was gone before he even touched that water," said Krissy.
Officials warn the colorless and odorless gas can emit from the engine and can create a toxic vacuum of fumes at the back of the boat. It's especially dangerous at slow speeds or when the boat is docked and the engine is on.
"It is an open boat, mid-engine boat and going at a slow speed, the exhaust is underneath the boat, underneath the back deck," said Doug.
Doug, being a firefighter and an avid boater, never knew about the dangers of carbon monoxide in the open water. Krissy said they had never been warned about carbon monoxide poisoning on a boat.
"We've all sat back there. We all sat on those back seats, too. It's what they're for," she said.
Now, through their pain, they want to share their story.
"When we lost Afton, there was just this hole right here and it never ever gets filled again, and it's just this emptiness. That's a good and bad thing because when I feel that emptiness, it's like I have to do something. We have to do something. We have to tell other people about this and that's what we are doing," she said.
They want other parents to know that smaller children should never be in the back of the boat at low speeds, as carbon monoxide can poison their bodies at a faster rate.
"The proper way is for everybody to sit in the front of the boat," said Doug. "Even the open air boats can be and is very dangerous to small children if you don't know."
T.J. Martin with the Parma Fire Department said it is important to buy a carbon monoxide detector for your boat, no matter what type it is and, especially, if you have a small indoor cabin.
"When you take the cabin of a boat, which is substantially smaller than a house, and emit carbon monoxide to the area, the area fills up exponentially quicker," said Martin.
Martin said if you feel like you may have carbon monoxide poisoning, get into fresh air as fast as possible, away from the engine, and call 911.
The Taylors are working to create a law in Ohio dedicated to Afton and creating more awareness about carbon monoxide poisoning on boats.
They have started "Love Like Afton," which is an organization dedicated to spreading information about carbon monoxide poisoning and dedicated to acts of kindness, like buddy benches at schools. They said their boy had a big heart and loved everyone.
"We just want to spread his love the best we can," said Krissy.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include a headache, weakness, fatigue, nausea or vomiting, shortness of breath, confusion, blurred vision, and loss of consciousness.

To avoid the reverse engineering of script apps, a lot of developers encrypt their code with tools like ionCube PHP Encoder in order to make it human unreadable. This is valid for paid apps in particular, as anyone could possibly use and modify the unencrypted code without having to pay the required license fees. If you buy web software protected with ionCube PHP Encoder, you'll be able to use it without any problems as long as a tool called ionCube Loader is a part of the web hosting server. This loader enables you to execute encoded files and you'll often find it among the prerequisites for a given script app to be set up. Due to the fact that the encoded files are already precompiled, they're ordinarily executed more rapidly and this can improve the general speed of your website.
IonCube Loader is available on all web servers which are part of our cloud hosting platform, so regardless of the Linux cloud hosting that you choose during the signup process, you can enable it through your Hepsia Control Panel. The process is as easy as right-clicking an On/Off button from the Advanced section, so even if this will be your first hosting account ever, you won't have to do anything complex. The exact same section enables you to pick the PHP release for your account (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5), so if you choose to switch to some other version, you only need to activate ionCube Loader for it too. Since our platform is quite flexible, you can set some other PHP version and a different status of ionCube using a php.ini file in each domain folder. If this is something you wish to do but you do not have much experience, our 24/7 tech support team shall help you quickly.
Since all the semi-dedicated server accounts are set up on our advanced cluster platform and ionCube Loader is available on it, you'll be able to use any script app which requires the tool in order to function properly. With a couple of clicks in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel you're able to activate or deactivate ionCube for the PHP version that's currently active for the account. Since we support multiple versions of PHP concurrently, you'll need to do that any time you move to a different version, and if you revert back to a version which you've already used, our system will remember your choice and ionCube Loader will already be activated. If you have several websites in the same account and they need different versions of PHP, you will be able to create a php.ini file in every single domain folder and with a couple of lines of program code you're able to define both the PHP release plus the status of ionCube no matter what is selected for the hosting account altogether.

CDT PhD Project:
Nanostructured Plasmonic Arrays for Optical Detection
Dr Bob Pollard, Queen's University Belfast
Professor Marc Sorel, University of Glasgow
Under certain conditions, light incident on noble metal nanostructures excites quasiparticles called plasmons in a phenomenon known as localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Due to their exciting optical properties and interactions with surrounding media, plasmonic nanostructures are often incorporated in various photonic devices. Applications range from heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) to optical communications and sensing.
This project utilises a photonic integrated device for life science applications, where a plasmonic based device is exploited to detect biological interactions. The aim of this project is to gain a greater understanding of the behaviour of proteins, which are a fundamental part of many biological processes including metabolism and immunity. Work involves functionalising the nanostructured array for increased specificity and sensitivity to certain ligand-analyte binding reactions occurring at varying concentrations. By using data fitting methods and theoretical models produced in MATLAB, the kinetics and affinity of the reactions has also be investigated. The data gained from the binding reactions has also been compared to that of a commercial, plasmonic sensor to gain information on the limitations and experimental setups of both methods.

Employment In Metaverse Is Declining As Google And Facebook Slow Hiring
Reports said that employment in the metaverse is declining as Google and Facebook slow hiring.
It has been reported that new monthly job postings with "Metaverse" in the title declined 81% across all industries between April and June, rising in the months since Facebook's rebranding last fall. The decline comes at the same time as a widespread slowdown in the tech industry, which has led to layoffs and hiring freezes and leaves employees moving from Bangalore to the Bay Area which is increasingly uncomfortable.
Spokeswoman Andrea Beasley said:
"We are excited to resume recruitment in some of our top priority areas after being temporarily put on hold for certain roles."
However, the business, which added more than 5,700 net new employees in the second quarter, is looking to expand its workforce by hiring experts in areas such as graphics, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI).
The report said that requests for comment by Google's parent company, Apple and Alphabet, were not immediately responded to, and both companies are involved in the development of immersive digital technologies. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's big bets on virtual reality and other emerging, immersive technologies could result in "short-term hype from the demand side."
Likewise, on Meta's earnings call on July 27, Zuckerberg said the lack of revenue was the reason he was "slowing down the pace" of long-term investments. On July 28, Apple, an emerging competitor to Meta in the virtual reality market, announced that it would be "more deliberate" in its hiring practice.
Alphabet, which has avoided making broad predictions about the future of the Internet but is making rapid strides in areas such as augmented reality (AR), has also slowed recruitment.
Thus, according to freelance talent marketplace Fiverr International, the number of freelance gigs for Metaverse-related services like avatar development and 3D design has more than quadrupled, while finding full-time Metaverse jobs has become more difficult.

Lee House is an existing 8 storey office block.
It was originally planned to be 69m tall, but the 1929 stock market crash led to the project being halted halfway through construction. It would have been the tallest office block in Europe.
In 2002 plans were approved for an extra 11 floors to be added to bring the building to it's originally intended height. 7 of these new floors will be residential, 2 residential and 2 plant. The plans will closely follow the originals.

George O. Hodgson was born February 14, 1924 in Jackson County, Jackson, Ohio. He graduated from Broomfield High School in 1942.
After graduation, Hodgson enlisted in the U.S. Navy and went to Great Lakes Training Center in Chicago, Illinois. From there, he went on to New York and was assigned to the USS Iowa BB6l where he served in the European-African Middle Eastern Theaters.
Hodgson transferred to the USS Hadley DD774 in 1944 and served in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater. He was discharged October 9, 1945 and received the Presidential Unit Citation and Bronze Star Medal six months later.
In 1949 Hodgson rejoined the Navy and was assigned to the USS Sperry DD697 and served in the American Theater. This tour involved taking reserve forces on two week cruises. This was not challenging enough for Hodgson and he became dissatisfied and discouraged. He separated from the Navy in March, 1950. Hodgson says, "On the day I was discharged, a new skipper came onboard. During his inspection he came to me and said, 'Son, where did you get the Presidential Unit Citation and the Bronze Star Medal?' I told him that I earned it while serving aboard the USS Hadley. He invited me up to his room after inspection, but I declined and explained that I was leaving soon. He was our Executive Officer, Robert W. Brownlee.
George Hodgson married Rebecca Swingle on August 18, 1950. They have one daughter, Ruth, who lives in Mesa, Arizona with her husband and three children.
Hodgson retired from Goodyear Atomic Corporation, Portsmouth, Ohio in November, 1985 after thirty-five years service. After retirement, he and Rebecca moved to 6207 East Duncan Street in Mesa, Arizona to be near their family.

What Is Spiral Dynamics Integral?
By Judith Best
As I reflect on a recent book about the Vatican investigation of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR), I am ruminating on two particular memories.
School Sister of Notre Dame Francis Padberg was once asked: "What is the most dangerous thing you've ever done?" She responded: "Learn to read."
Very dangerous, indeed.
Another comment came from a generous Jesuit when I asked: "Howie, what would you like to do that you've never done before?"
His response surprised me. "Become a woman," he said candidly. "I've listened to faith-filled women share their heartache experience of being a woman in the church, and think it would be good to experience it myself."
Both comments offer a springboard to explore the courageous stance of LCWR to the Vatican mandate, commonly referred to as "the investigation," which took place in the United States from 2009 to 2015.
It is described in However Long the Night, narrated by those sisters in leadership during that time, as well as lay supporters, and edited by Annmarie Sanders, a member of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Scranton, Pennsylvania and LCWR's director of communications.
This carefully scripted dedication is the underpinning for the quality of contemplative dialogue which has set a "gold standard" for women religious. As I read reports of these meetings, I could feel an all-pervasive angst bubbling just beneath the surface as hope for "dialogue" was met with the expectation that sisters would be silent and submissive: their experience encased in a 12th-century expectation by the clerical/hierarchical church.
The title However Long the Night emphasizes the importance of developing patience, an informed conscience, the ability to claim the agency of women, and the desire to live out of a deep, contemplative space, cultivated with loving honesty. (Their particular process for making decisions out of a contemplative stance is described on page 182.)
This struggle continues as I write this.
At the same time as the investigation of LCWR, 80 percent of U.S. women religious were also experiencing an apostolic visitation by the Vatican. Sisters continued to carry out their ordinary ministry while responding to both Vatican activities, even while living under the suspicion of infidelity. Fear was in the air: It was a challenging time for both leaders and members.
This book was the result of two years of dialogue and retreats by those in leadership as well as lay supporters. Work on it began after the official conclusion of the investigation in 2015.
As I read the background of the authors I recognized similar characteristics to sisters in my community: well-educated, not only academically, but in survival skills and in many more ways that they learned from those they serve.
They know how to deal with boardroom politics and build consensus. They have learned lessons from rigorous listening to a variety of opinions in health care, education, social services, and parishes, then trying to form a community and move forward — always stressing the Gospel call of loving forgiveness and respect. Some have served in other cultures where they risked imprisonment for sharing Christ's love for the outcast.
Through this corporate personality of the American women religious looking at new cosmology and other current topics, their practical wisdom served them/us well in setting some guiding principles for their dialogue with the members of the hierarchy with whom they met regularly. Pressures were engaged with humble strength.
Here are some highlights that spoke to my sense of gratitude and respect for their contemplative approach and fidelity to their inner truth:
This must have been an excruciating dilemma, especially when the Vatican office released news of the mandate to the press before the sisters had returned from their Roman visit. How were they to trust ongoing conversations if basic courtesy was missing?
There is a deep chasm between the 50 years of learning to dialogue, work toward consensus and hear other points of view, which LCWR and member congregations have labored over on difficult issues, and a hierarchical lack of willingness or ability to engage in such dialogue.
Bridging this chasm is an ongoing challenge within the church, experienced by lay colleagues as well as women religious.
Advisors both lay and religious continued their invaluable support of the sisters, recognizing this struggle as relevant for many Catholics. Solidarity with Sisters continues today to support women religious and dialogue with LCWR.
The authors wrestled with their need for honesty and doing their own inner work.
"Each time we met among ourselves or with the archbishop or Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith (CDF), we remained steadfast in respectfully posing the question at the heart of the mandate: In what way(s) are we unfaithful? This haunting question carved a deep space within us and it allowed us to keep focused on the desire to engage in honest dialogue based on mutual respect."
Often after meeting with Vatican officials, they shared the results with the LCWR board as well as the larger LCWR membership. This meant hours/days of tedious meetings. Building community led to acknowledging the emotional tone of individuals and groups, yet steadfastly seeing the importance of honoring the agency of women as part of a bigger picture.
They knew the Holy Spirit was guiding them, sometimes speaking through difficult questions, encouraging the bearing of accusations with silence, begging for light. All of this and more left leaders weary. However Long the Night, they trusted a corporate wisdom would evolve into light.
The extent to which the mandate resonated with people outside the LCWR organization compelled us to consider how we would chart a path forward. We realized that the components of the mandate were not only about LCWR as an organization or as a group of women religious leaders. Rather, there was a deeper conversation that yearned to emerge, a broader understanding of the core issues, and a profound movement of the Spirit prompting all of us to discernment and fidelity in new and challenging ways. The CDF mandate was about an adult, educated laity, in this case a group of women religious whose vision of a Vatican II church had guided their renewal, framed their discernment for more than 50 years, and claimed their fidelity.
As I finished reading this prophetic step into the future, I recognized how often women religious and those who support them appear to cloak their expertise in a simple 100-percent cotton blouse. They say little about who they are or where they've served.
It is the mission of Christ that they wear, whether in a board room, a chancery office, classroom, hospital, standing with immigrants, or defending the position of women who are also "the church."
Thank you, LCWR, for Being Church, "however long the night."

However Long the Night: Making meaning in a time of crisis
By Nancy Sylvester
The pride I felt reading the reflections of the LCWR presidency who were in office as LCWR discerned and navigated the rough waters of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith mandate, was overwhelming.
Having been part of LCWR since the late 1970s as an associate, then as a member, and now as a former LCWR president, I lived through the years thT both stirred the Vatican waters and then courageously calmed them. Even though I experienced these women's leadership personally, I was deeply moved as I read their reflections and felt such an honor to be part of LCWR and religious life.
What these women offer is a very intimate and clear look into the process of communal contemplation and dialogue. They write as individuals but individuals who understand the power of sharing insights and allowing the new to emerge from their collective wisdom.
They emerged from the much larger body of elected leaders throughout the United States who had committed themselves to deepening their contemplative practice both individually and congregationally over these past decades.
They were elected from the body of women religious to serve at this particular time, and they responded in a way that speaks directly to the situation we face as a nation.
How do we speak to those who have different assumptions, beliefs and worldviews? How do we remain whole and act with integrity? How do we face into our own biases and prejudices so as to respond out of a contemplative heart?
These women's capacity to respond to such questions was intimately connected to their prayer, their contemplation that made them transparent to themselves.
They faced their own biases and worldviews. They allowed for their emotional reactions and then went deeper, finding out what was underneath, causing such a reaction.
They owned their own needs and preferred ways of acting, and let them go to see if some new, collective way would emerge to serve the common good of LCWR.
What developed was a freedom. A courageous freedom to meet those appointed by the Vatican to oversee the mandate — with a mutuality and respect that was disarming.
Having both the theological background and skills of dialogue and process, they were able to create a different environment, inviting a new way of speaking and listening into the room. They believed that shifting the energy to be one of love, curiosity and exploration does effect change.
Their journey over years is perhaps more than we can imagine happening in our nation where attention spans are minimal; capacity to listen or to dialogue underdeveloped; self-reflection sorely lacking; willingness to admit where one was wrong and then change is seen as weak; and deepening one's interior life so as to touch the mystery of the divine is too often avoided or ridiculed.
Yet, this is exactly what we need as a nation to begin to heal the polarities we are experiencing.
I would strongly encourage the reading of these reflections. They reveal from the inside out an amazing process of transformation. I believe there are many people who are ready to change who know that we must imagine new ways of being and doing if we want to survive as a planetary community. This book is a great place to begin.

Dare we say that the roaring 1920s are one of our favorite style decades? The glitz, the glamour — the era was all about decadence and liberation, and the fashion of the time was no exception. It was the first time opulence met the free spirit, coming together for wild elegance and this is why we are hands down in love with this editorial, that is both fashion forward and statement-making.
Sitting smack-dab in the center of the volcanic isle, the chalky white Rocabella in Santorini is simply an absolute delicacy for sunset-watching and resort-hopping, and this art deco inspired glam shoot with Santorini Glam Weddings on our side had wedding vision written across every stitch.
Topped by drifts of whitewashed cubes and with a reputation for dazzling panoramas, we headed to the hotel's multicolored cliffs to capture the romantic wedding of two brides and chase the sunset jumping a ceremonial glasshouse made of stained glass.
We loved how beautifully floral pieces made of pampas grass and David Austin blooms from Betty Flowers Santorini worked with the head-turning pastiness of the terrace where oak chairs alluding to the dashing decade were employed in lieu of pews. Our tablescape set in muted prunes, peachy and yellow floral arrangements came together seamlessly with menus and place cards made of glass tiles -also used for the couple's vows and stationery suites- happy notes of citrus and spices, pretty silks and clean lines.
Our two brides wore fashion by the wonderful Crochelle, whose vision blends "beautiful creatures" to Sophia Coppola heroines, while artisan jeweler Poniros brought an air of Greek chic, with real diamonds, that bore the icons of the island: the Santorini wreath vine engagement ring, the Windmill, and the Volcanic Flower.
This fusion of frail and opulent, glam and captivating still minimal and crisp as well as working with the top-notch creative teams of the Secret Owl Santorini is a dream come true in our books. Enjoy!

Q: Disk space (3TB) used up while running LAMMPS Every time, I run LAMMPS for 4-5 days, the disk space (3TB) would be used up. I tried to find possible temporary files using commands like:
1.du -d 5
2.du -h --max-depth=1
3.du . | sort -nr | head -n50
However, I cannot find these files. du command shows that the diskspace is used by some files in my working directory. There don't seem to be any files that are over large.  If I reboot the server, the space is released.  How can I find these temporary files and delete them safely?  Or any other solution will be highly appreciated.
Output of df -h after running LAMMPS around 24 hours:
Filesystem               Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs                   3.5T  1.2T 2.2T  35%  /
udev                     10M   0    10M   0%   /dev
tmpfs                    6.4G  2.0M 6.3G  1%   /run
/dev/mapper/cosmos-root  3.5T  1.2T 2.2T  35%  /
tmpfs                    5.0M  0    5.0M  0%   /run/lock
tmpfs                    13G   315M 13G   3%   /run/shm
/dev/sda2                229M  18M  199M  9%   /boot

Please do not arbitrarily mark my question as duplicated one!

A: Since everything seems to be mounted on one big root partition, the du commands clearly aren't being aimed where they should be.  Maybe you're running du in some subdirectory of /home, but LAMMPS is filling up log files in /var or /var/log.
Run this in a background terminal during the fillup, it'll show the ten largest files opened by any processes named "lammps*" or "lmp*", and also highlight any changes as those largest files grow:
watch -d "lsof -c lammps -c lmp | tr -s ' ' | cut -d' ' -f8,9 | sort -urn | head"

Note: the above code assumes that disk space is consumed by a few large and growing files.  It's possible the disk space might also be consumed by millions of small files.

'Jersey Shore' Star Vinny Guadagnino May Be Creating A Keto Cookbook And Now We're Hungry
Jan 8, 2019 1:41 pm·
By Lex Briscuso
All hail the Keto Guido! Jersey Shore star Vinny Guadagnino made headlines when he dropped 50 pounds after doing the most sacrilege thing an Italian could ever do: giving up carbs. Since he saw the light at the end of the carb-less tunnel, Vinny has rebranded himself the Keto Guido and has been enlightening fans and followers to the low-carb lifestyle since creating his viral Instagram page, @ketoguido. But now? He might just be ready to take the next step and write a Keto cookbook.
At first, Vinny wanted to keep the secret under wraps. "I'm still doing the Keto stuff," he told Life & Style exclusively at the Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club premiere on Jan. 7. "You know what sucks, like, I have like a bunch of projects that I'm working on right now but they haven't been announced so you know, eventually I'll be able to, like, talk about them, but just keep following me, keep supporting me."
But when we pressed for some hints, the 31-year-old pretty much spilled the beans. "Something like, cookbook-ish…" Something "cookbook-ish" sounds like a cookbook to us! But is his mom involved? "Yes, she's always involved," he said.
Can we just take a second and imagine Vinny and his mama collaborating on a Keto cookbook? It would truly be a breakthrough for carb-addicted Italians everywhere.
But the potential cookbook isn't the only thing the Keto Guido has on deck. "TV, digital stuff. So definitely some big stuff." Um, could that be the sound of Vin's own show? Let us pray.
"And I have a clothing line called Name Brand NYC," he also told us about his other projects. "That I wear on the show and it's just like, I don't take it that seriously but it's like a weird thing, like shirts that say, like, AX and it means anxiety." Oh, like Armani Exchange? "No, it's a play on that. So that's my kind of company that I do, my creative outlet."
Looks like Vin's got a lot on the horizon for us to watch out for! We literally can't wait for any of it, but in the meantime, we'll continue to binge-watch Jersey Shore reruns while eating Keto-approved snacks.

At the memorial cemetery of Belgrade in Namur, among the graves of the fallen of different nationalities there are graves of 16 Soviet prisoners of war and members of the Belgian Resistance. The burial was conducted approximately in 1942–1944 and represents a platform of 10x5 meters with the monument erected on it and sixteen gravestones with the names of the fallen.
In 1994, in the central part of the site, a monument was erected by sculptor A. Burganov. The granite pedestal reads in Russian and French: "TO THE SOVIET SOLDIERS WHO DIED IN NAMUR. 1941–1945".

Wine Hooligans is my fourth and final (I promised my wife) start up business venture. Two were successes, one was a bomb and we will see what happens with Hooligans. Hopefully I will be batting .750 by the end of Hooligans and not .500.
Start-ups have a strange addictive quality to them that brings people back time and time again. Intellectually, it makes no sense to keep coming back. The only thing I have been able to equate it with is having a child. Women grow a human being in their bodies, go through tremendous pain and in most cases swear they will never do that again… and more times than not, parents start talking about having another child about a year later. Everyone has forgotten about the lack of sleep, disruption of routine, worrying about college tuition (don't worry, you will find a way to pay for it), feelings of incompetence when you bring the baby home from the hospital, etc. A year later, you simply see a beautiful child that you have created and how that child has made your life infinitely more meaningful.
At one of the start-ups I was involved with, we had a problem getting accurate data up from the retail stores. This caused problems for the merchants tasked with carrying proper amounts of inventory. At an early board meeting one of the Venture Capital investors was complaining about the amount of inventory we were carrying at the stores. The merchants responded they weren't getting good information about the inventory. The investor looked right at the merchants and said he didn't care if we didn't have electricity, he expected acceptable inventory levels. Like I said… start-ups are different. They focus you to find the solution, not talk about the problems!
After that "incident", I developed my "Man In The Desert" theory. Everyone who has worked for me over the years is sick of hearing it. It's simple… if you are a man stranded in the desert, the only thing you care about is getting to the water. If you don't get to the water, you die. Everything else becomes irrelevant, including reasons why you can't get to the water. I like simple.
1. Start-ups are usually begun with some seed equity and some debt. I call this oxygen. Why oxygen? Well, when a company is in the start-up phase it doesn't generate enough cash or earnings to be self-sustaining. It needs oxygen to survive. Whether its equity or debt, the oxygen is provided in the form of cash. The less oxygen you need to buy, the better off the company will be. It's a balancing act to have enough money to get your head above water, i.e. start generating cash and earnings at acceptable levels, so you can start breathing free oxygen, but not too much money where you are at risk of making careless decisions.
2. The most important part of that process is SELLING whatever good or service your company makes or offers. Seems pretty straight forward, but you would be amazed at how many companies forget the importance of this first step. If everything you do in a start-up isn't geared to selling you either have bought too much oxygen or you are going to drown very quickly. Sales is the life blood of every start up I have been involved with. I am not saying that operations, accounting, etc. aren't important, but they are irrelevant without SALES. Anyone contemplating getting involved with a start-up should watch two you tube videos; a spoof on a "A Few Good Men" called "A Few Good Expenses" and the clip of Alec Baldwin in "Glen Garry-Glen Ross." If you're not willing to have this as your reality...don't get involved with a start-up.
3. Congratulations, you are part of the start-up team. No matter what you have been hired to do, you will need to make yourself the company expert in it, or at least be confident that you can figure it out and keep moving the ball down the field. There is no training manual or supervisor to guide you through. You need to be comfortable with living in a world of chaos and uncertainty. I wish there was a more nurturing way to run start-ups, but I have yet to find it.
4. Like they say in Navy Seal training… look around you, most of you won't make it to the end of the training. Most of the people initially hired in a start-up don't make it through the first few years. Either the environment is not for them, or their skills don't evolve. The key to making it is to make yourself indispensable in whatever function you are involved with. That gives you a fighting chance. There still might be financial reasons why you might get cut. You can only control what you can control. Don't get shaken up when shake-ups happen. People will come and go. The reasons are not important (most likely you will never know the real story anyway). What is important is to stay focused on getting to "the water".
5. Don't hang your head if the company fails or you don't make the cut. It might be painful and it won't be evident for a while, but you will have learned many, many great lessons at your time in a start-up. If the only thing you learn, is that start-ups are not for you… that's very valuable.
So why do it? Why take the risk? Why endure the pain?
Is it the elusive chance of a "monetary" event? Is it being your own boss? Is it being on the ground floor? Is it that you can't get a regular job?
Everyone has different reasons. For me it's about the creation and seeing the business become successful. It's turning ideas into realities and seeing them work in the most competitive and opportunistic market in the world… the United States. It's the drug that keeps bringing me back (however at 57, I think my wife is right… time for me to hang it up after Hooligans).
If you choose to get into the "arena", you are part of the club! Brace yourself, it's a wild ride.

Book Review: Against the Gods: The Polemical Theology of the Old Testament
by John Span | Jan 13, 2014
Author: John D. Currid,
Publisher: Crossway (August 31, 2013)
Purchase: Amazon.Com
Reviewer: John Span
Professional Egyptologist, professor or Old Testament and author of the Evangelical Press commentaries on Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy, John Currid sets out to examine "what precisely is the relationship of the Old Testament to ancient Near Eastern literature." Currid's bottom line is that the Bible uses–even subverts– the religious contexts of its neighbors to drive home the point of the uniqueness of Yahweh in relationship to His people. This is what he calls polemical theology. Currid weaves a lot of his previous material including his book Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament along with various journal articles and supplements this with a significant amount of new material. He makes reference to a lecture series he gave at the Reformed Theological Seminary in 2007 entitled "Crass Plagiarism: The Problem of the Relationship of the Old Testament to Ancient Near Eastern Literature" and they can be accessed here. Due to the pithiness of the book, the reader would be well advised to listen to these lectures first.
Crass plagiarism?
The lectures and the present book both refer to Friedrich Delitzsch's contention that the Bible simply stole Babylonian ideas and transplanted them into Genesis and thus is guilty of "crass plagiarism." "Not so," says Currid, and he goes on to show the comparison and contrast of the Biblical text with other texts that would superficially seem to have parallels in word and thought. A sampling of Biblical examples he uses for his argument includes:
Creation ex nihilo vs Egyptian, Hittite and Ugaritic stories (Gen 1-2);
The Flood as compared to other flood stories (Gen 7-9);
Joseph and the spurned seductress motif (Gen 37:12-36, 39:7-18)
The Birth of Moses and the deliverer from persecution motif (Ex 2:1-10)
The Flight of Moses and the hero's exile motif (Ex 2:11-25)
I Am who I Am and the co-opting of this name by the sun God Re (Ex 3)
God's strong arm (Ex 3:19-20) vs. Pharaoh's supposedly strong arm
"Thus says the Lord" (Ex 5:1) vs. "Thus says Pharaoh" the supposed incarnation of the gods
The Rod of Moses trumping the rod of Pharaoh and the magicians (Ex 4:1-5; 7:8-13; 14:19-31)
The Parting of the Red Sea and its Egyptian parallels (Ex 14:19-21)
Canaanite parallels including Psalm 29 and its polemical nature, and that of Elijah and Yahweh's victory over Baal by the withholding of the rain
Yahweh the true heavenly rider (Isa 19:1-15; Ps 104:3) vs. Baal the impostor
Currid has assembled a wide range of data, to debunk the myth that the Biblical authors simply sanitized stories from the surrounding religions and incorporated them into the text. Rather, under the rubric of polemics, the stories were taken to highlight the contrast of the eternally existing Living God Yahweh, with the human-created polytheist gods who were simply a projection of human imagination. Helpful comparison and contrast tables make this easy to understand.
Interaction with other scholars
Currid surveys a century and a half history of the study of Ancient Near Eastern religions, including a proliferation of archaeological finds. Naturally he leans towards his specialty, namely Egyptology. He interacts with a range of scholars and treats even those with whom he disagrees with respect. Perhaps he is too restrained in his treatment of John Walton and Peter Enns who essentially see the first part of Genesis as "culturally descriptive rather than revealed truth." To his credit, Currid counterbalanced those authors with that of Gerhard Hasel who minces no words:
"It appears that the Genesis cosmology represents not only a 'complete break' with the ancient Near Eastern mythological cosmologies but represents a parting of the spiritual ways brought about by a conscious and deliberate antimythical polemic which meant an undermining of the prevailing mythological cosmologies."
How does one apply such a book to today? Currid stresses this in a pod cast which is found here, but in this area the book seems to fall short. In his pod cast he underscores that he wrote the book as a defence against attacks against the Bible which want to call it a myth, as well as an encroaching liberalism which seeks to undermine the authority of the Scriptures. He worries that when parishioners and scholars see superficial parallels–for instance of a Babylonian flood account–then they give equal weight to the non-Biblical account and the Biblical account. In the pod cast he shows that the terms myth and worldview have been re-defined by some modern scholars and this is a direct result of post-modernism. He sees this akin as "nailing jelly to a wall." Granted, he closes the book with a strong statement:
"In addition, and of utmost importance, is the truth that the biblical writers often employed polemical theology as an instrument to underscore the uniqueness of the Hebrew worldview in contrast to other ancient Near Eastern conceptions of the universe and how it operates. In this day and age, when a considerable number of scholars seek to diminish the originality and uniqueness of the Old Testament, this is no small thing."
For instance, as one reads with interest the story of how the Egyptians co-opted the name "I AM who I AM" for the Sun god Re, and how Yahweh essentially took that name back with demonstrations of power, before and during the Red Sea crossing, one has to ask if there are modern day examples of the same. Is it possible that Islam co-opted the God of the Bible, Jesus, and the patriarchs and used them for its own purposes?
Towards a Biblical theology of other religions: Almost
Helpfully Professor Currid delineates three areas where the comparison and contrast between the Ancient Near East (ANE) and the Bible are most poignant. First is the area of myth, versus the true history of Israel; then the theology of the ANE, namely that its gods personified nature, versus Yahweh who created and upheld and directed nature at his command; and finally the view of humans, or anthropology, in which the ANE sees humans as slaves to serve the whims of the gods, compared to humans in the Biblical view who are made in the image of God. It goes without saying that this data shows that ANE religions were anything but benign, and that they constituted a powerful offensive against Biblical truth. This is demonstrated in the Egyptian example of the Heavenly Cow. Currid strongly suggests:
"If the biblical stories are true, one would be surprised not to find some references to these truths in extra-biblical literature. And indeed in ancient Near Eastern myth we do see some kernels of historical truth. However, pagan authors vulgarized or bastardized those truths— they distorted fact by dressing it up with polytheism, magic, violence, and paganism. Fact became myth. From this angle the common references would appear to support rather than deny the historicity of the biblical story."
This leads to an obvious question: "what about the so-called "truths" found in other religions today?"
This work by John Currid contains provides the reader with a wide overview of the current state of studies of ANE religions as they relate to the Bible. It also contains powerful data to use in formulating a modern day theology of other religions and a Biblical doctrine of God. How should one examine Hinduism, Buddhism or Islam? The book provides tantalizing clues, but the brevity of the book seems to have precluded a chapter or two which might have brought this together. This reviewer would gladly anticipate such a full-length work by such a widely read scholar as Dr. John Currid.
