Q: Why does Android AVD take so long to start up? I got the Hello, Android program to work after reading the tutorials from Google's developer website, but it takes SO long for the AVD to load up! Plus, in the console section in the bottom part of Eclipse, two of the lines were written in red, which I'm guessing is bad. It takes around a minute for the AVD to start running the actual program. This is what the console printout looks like:
[2010-08-06 12:32:38 - HelloAndroid] ------------------------------
[2010-08-06 12:32:38 - HelloAndroid] Android Launch!

Now that I looked at the times, I started to run the program at 12:32, and it finally had my program on the screen at 12:35, so thats 3 minutes. Is this a normal amount of time I have to wait? If it isn't, how to make it faster?

A: Well the AVD is a totally different architecture from say a Windows PC.
Windows usually runs on 32bit or 64bit. On Intel or AMD processors.
The Instructions for the processor are written in x86.
The way binary and machine code works/runs is different to each arcitechture.
The android package that you have uploaded onto the device has to be compiled on the AVD architechture. The Emulator has to emaulate ARM architechture so the instruction sent to the CPU is different.
This takes time to compile this code.
Hope this answers it.
Any questions?

A: Running Ubuntu 10.10 64bit here. I'm on a AMD phenom 2.5Ghz w/ 8GB memory. for 2.2 bootup time takes 40 seconds, but the OS responds a little sluggish. For 1.5 the bootup only took about 30 seconds and response is snappy.
Also, after you've booted your AVD, hopefully you're all keeping it open and running between run sessions in Eclipse!  You shouldn't be closing it and rebooting the AVD everytime you re-run your app. Just keep the AVD open and Eclipse will reload your app. (take a look at the console output to see when your app has finished reloading)

The Force Is With Us
"The Last Jedi" hints at a love triangle, and I have really mixed feelings about it
C. Molly Smith
From Han and Leia, to Anakin and Padmé, we've had our share of romance in that galaxy far, far away. Star Wars: The Last Jedi is no exception, and it might have hinted at more to come. Now, if you don't want to be spoiled about all the ~luv~ going around, then AVERT YOUR EYES BECAUSE SPOILERS FOLLOW. Don't care about spoilers, or saw it already? Great, let's jump right in…
If you thought there was a 'lil sumthin' sumthin' going on between Rey and Finn in The Force Awakens, it seems you were partially right. Because in The Last Jedi, Rey appears — this is only speculation, but it sure as hell came off this way — to have some feels for Finn.
Whereas in The Force Awakens, Rey and Finn spend most of the film together — working to save the galaxy and developing a deep friendship, and maybe more in the process — they spend most of The Last Jedi apart. Rey is off training with Luke, learning the ways of the Force so she can stop the First Order in its tracks. Elsewhere in the galaxy, Finn is also combating the dictatorship — this time with Rose by his side.
Finn and Rose's relationship doesn't seem romantic at first.
They team up to track down the Master Codebreaker — played by Justin Theroux, ICYMI — so they can get through the First Order's defenses and stop them from tracking the Resistance through lightspeed. But after Rose saves Finn's life in a climactic final battle by knocking him out of the way of fire and stopping his suicide mission, the pair have a *real* romantic exchange…
Finn: "Why would you stop me?"
Rose: "I saved you, dummy. That's how we're going to win — not fighting what we hate, saving what we love."
Right after that, she plants one on him. Then, she passes out from her injuries.
When everyone is reunited after the battle, Rey sees the pair together.
Rey just had her big reunion with Finn; they shared a passionate hug — more passionate than the Finn-Rose kiss, if you ask me — when she lifts a bunch of rocks using the Force like a boss, allowing what's left of the Resistance to escape their mine hideout. Pretty soon after, Rey spots Finn tending to a still-passed out Rose, and while Rey doesn't say anything explicitly, the look in her eyes suggests she's a bit sad to see Finn with someone else (again, speculation).
Also worth noting? Right before this moment, Rey "meets" Poe, and there appeared to be a bit of a spark there. Because, hello, he said "I know" to her, and we all know the significance of those two words (also, the Force Awakens novelization hints at Rey and Poe being a thing). So to recap, Rose likes Finn; Finn appears to like Rose back; Rey seems to like Finn too, but might also be interested in Poe; and looks like Poe likes Rey. Okay, so yes, this is more of a love SQUARE than TRIANGLE. #MATH
Here's my issue…
I am all for women having it ALL. Because why can't women have room for a career, love, family, friends, and so on in their lives? We are fully dimensional human beings with many interests off-screen, so that should be represented on-screen. That said, sometimes one of the aforementioned needs to take priority.
And in the case of Rey, work (sure, let's call it that) *needs* to take priority, because the fate of the galaxy is literally at stake. That's not to say she shouldn't have any room for romance. (Maybe she and Poe will fall for each other while participating in Poe's favorite pastime: Blowing stuff up.) But so help me, if Rey turns into a jealous cliché or if these boys (or others) in any way distract her from saving everyone, I'll throw a tantrum so intense that Kylo Ren will look zen.
Do I think that will happen? No, because so far, the latest batch of Star Wars films have been feminist as hell. In The Last Jedi alone, Rey, Leia, Holdo, and Rose each have their big, badass moments, and are total equals to their male (and alien) counterparts. Not to mention, Rose makes a good point about love being a motivating factor in the Resistance's efforts. And let's be honest, shipping is fun.
But if these characters, Rey in particular, are about to get some romance in their lives, it should support their hero journeys — not overpower them. Got that, J.J. Abrams?

SIX – which owns and manages the Swiss stock exchange – welcomes Swiss fintech Amun as a new Exchange Traded Product (ETP) issuer to its trading segment. The Amun ETP is the world's first crypto index ETP listed on a regulated stock exchange. It is based on the Amun HODL5 index, which includes the four top crypto currencies defined by market capitalization: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum Ether (ETH), Ripple (XRP) and Litecoin (LTC). Trading of the new product starts today.
Amun AG was established by a team of FinTech entrepreneurs and bankers in July 2018, incorporated and registered in Zug, Switzerland, as a public limited corporation. After exploring more than 28 different exchanges and territories around the world, Amun AG settled on Switzerland for its financial excellence and regulatory stability.
An ETP is a collateralized, non-interest-paying bearer debt security issued as a security and traded as well as redeemed in the same structure on a continuous basis. Collateral is deposited with a third party and amounts to at least 100% of the outstanding amount. ETPs relate to an underlying instrument that is admitted by the Regulatory Board of SIX Exchange Regulation, i.e. that has a price that is set regularly and that is publicly accessible. Unlike ETFs, an ETP is not a collective investment scheme in the sense of the Federal Act on Collective Investment Schemes (CISA) and with that is not supervised by FINMA. This product is not CCP eligible.

Stezka řeky Potomac, v angličtině Potomac Heritage Trail, je síť turistických stezek v okolí toku řeky Potomac, na jihovýchodě Spojených států amerických. Nachází se ve státech: Pensylvánie, Virginie, Maryland a v District of Columbia. Stezka řeky Potomac je jednou z více než třiceti Národních turistických stezek na území Spojených států. Celková délka sítě národních scénických stezek podél toku Potomac je 1 140 kilometrů.

Řeka protéká vápencovými útesy, přirozeně se vine krajinou Potomacké pánve a místy vytváří vodopády. Prochází ze západu na východ Appalačským pohořím: nejprve Alleghenskou plošinou, následně hřbety a údolími, níže protéká pod vrcholky Blue Ridge, Piedmotem a v oblasti Pobřežní nížiny ústí do Chesapeakské zátoky.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – D4 Creative, one of Philadelphia's top advertising and branding agencies has created a new regional TV and radio campaign for United Tire and Service, a Philadelphia-area multi-store tire and auto repair services company known for its trustworthiness and dedication to customers.
The (2) humorous TV and (2) radio spots promote a 16-point safety checklist developed by United Tire & Service, ("United"), as well as give more meaning to their slogan, "Don't drive alone, drive United." The TV spots feature a pair of United employees riding in the back seat of a customer's car always there to help and save them money. The radio spots are conversations between talking car tires with personality, complaining about "road pattern baldness" and being "tired and worn out," only to find happiness after being serviced at United Tire & Service.
"We believe that D4 took the time to understand what the strengths in our business are and had the ability to bring them to light to customers and the market in a meaningful way," said Greg Mynaugh, President of United Tire and Service.
Production was handled by D4 Creative's in-house team including Creative Director, Dave Lesser and Agency Producer/Director, Charlie Dehne. The agency's post-production facilities were utilized for all editing, graphics, and sound design.
The hyper-local consumer strategy also included creating online marketing tactics for a multi-phase email program supported by social media channels and SEO, led by D4 Creative's Digital department head, Alex Giebel.

The cyber defamation law (사이버 모욕죄) is a legislation in South Korea which refers to libel or slander that is expressed online, typically via a publicly accessible website. Cyber defamation often falls under the scope of existing libel and slander laws in most jurisdictions and is typically treated as a tort as opposed to a crime.

Overview
The cyber defamation law that the South Korean government pursues allows police to crack down on hateful comments without any reports from victims.

The Korea Communications Commission (KCC), South Korea's telecommunications and broadcasting regulator, has been considering revising the current Telecommunications Law and put more regulations and deeper scrutiny on major Internet portals.

Controversies
There have been talks about introducing the stricter laws in cyberspace. A famous celebrity's suicide in South Korea, triggered the controversies once again as to whether such law is necessary. The law supported by the governing Grand National Party (GNP), if implemented, will allow police to investigate the cyber defamation cases without any complaints of the victims. The opposition Democratic Party has been against the introduction of such law.

Advocate views
 The current laws have failed to prevent the number of the victims from increasing at an escalating rate.
 Freedom of speech comes with responsibility.
 Because information and rumors can travel in a matter of seconds across the Internet, cyber-bullying and cyber defamation could take a significant toll on each victim without such strict regulations by authorities.

Opposing views
 There are already ways to regulate the cyberspace with the current laws.
 It is potentially possible for the law to be exploited by authorities in an attempt to crack down on people who express opposite views.
 Such law might cause a harmful effect on freedom of speech.
 "Defamation" is too ambiguous to be defined by a third party, other than the victims.

Survey
A Research & Research survey of 800 Korean people conducted on Jan. 14, 2009 showed that 60% supported the GNP-led bill dealing with cyber defamation, and 32.1% opposed it.

Celebrities' suicide
Some Korean celebrities have suffered from severe depression, caused in part by malicious online comments, before committing suicide.

U;Nee
 Choi Jin-sil

Goo Hara

Online gaming
Vast majority of cyber defamation police reports arise from online games. League of Legends is a game which is notorious for such acts. In 2015 alone, South Korean law enforcement received and investigated over 8000 reports of cyber defamation; over half of these cases involve League of Legends where players head to police stations as a retaliation after being verbally abused by teammates or opponents.

There are even 'settlement fee hunters', where players enter games and grief with intention of being insulted by other players. In some cases, such settlement fee hunters file police reports against over 50 other individuals at once. Most of the victims of settlement fee hunters are teenagers, since many parents are willing to pay settlement fees ranging from 300 thousand to 2 million KRW (300 to 2000 USD) to avoid their children having to go to trial and risk gaining criminal records.

No Bonus Casino is an online casino established in 2013 that runs on a multi-software platform offering games from a variety of suppliers. It is operated by L&L Europe Ltd and is registered under the jurisdictions of United Kingdom and Malta. Last updated: December 27, 2018.
No Bonus Casino does not accept players from the United States.
No Bonus Casino is an online casino operated by L&L Europe, a company which also runs several other casinos that are generally targeted to specific countries or regions, such as All British Casino and Adler Casino. This one, as you can probably guess by the name, aims squarely at players that are not interested in casino bonuses and the associated rules and restrictions. Instead the casino promotes a cash back program that credits players money after every deposit. As someone who both rarely claims a bonus at any casino these days, and has often wondered why no casinos had specifically targeted the growing group of "anti-bonus" players, the name alone was enough to earn my curiosity.
No Bonus Casino is an in-browser casino offering games supplied by Net Entertainment, Amatic Industries, and Microgaming, which gives it a healthy selection of games for you to choose from. It is effectively a "skin" of the other casinos that are run by the operator L&L Europe, so if you have played at any of the others the experience will be almost identical. I was particularly impressed with the speed in which I was able to move around the website, and found the interface very easy to use. The instant search box is particularly handy and it allows you to search for games that are outside the specific genre that you may be viewing at the time.
The game selection is diverse, with slots, table games, video poker, lottery games, and keno available to play in different sections of the site. I expected the slots to be a huge portion of the library, and they certainly were, with recent releases like Dracula, Steam Tower, Stickers, and Cyrus the Virus headlining the 150 or so slot machines. The Net Entertainment and Microgaming games offer the most advanced and visually pleasing gameplay, while the Amatic games look 10 years behind in comparison. I was pleased to see the amount and variety of table games that I found at No Bonus Casino. The selection was impressive, with multiple variations of Blackjack, Caribbean Stud Poker, Baccarat, Roulette, Casino Hold'em, Oasis Poker, Pontoon, Texas Hold'em and more all available to play.
There is also a good live casino attached to No Bonus Casino, with games being broadcast from two different locations. You can play live Roulette, Blackjack, or Punto Banco 24 hours a day with games broadcast from the Net Entertainment studios in Malta. Between the hours of 10am through to 5am you can also choose to play at real tables that are beamed from the land based Portomaso Casino which is located in Paceville, Malta.
Obviously this casino's biggest selling point is its decision to toss bonuses out the window and instead try to offer both a healthy cash back scheme (10% of losses), and high quality service. As someone who plays at loads of different casinos and rarely claims a bonus, the immediate question that came to mind was is this really any better than playing at any other good casino and just refusing to claim the bonuses? I'd say the answer is a qualified yes. The main reason in the cashback scheme, which at 10% of losses, is quite generous. There are no wagering requirements at all to the cashback payments and you can withdraw them immediately if you prefer. There is a catch though: the cashback is only paid if you have lost all of your previous day's deposits. So if you're the type of player that has a "win or bust" style, it's a great deal. If you're more conservative and sometimes withdraw with a partial loss banked, then it won't do anything for you.
Banking at No Bonus Casino is good, with players offered a fairly standard selection of popular transactional options. Deposits are handled via credit card, bank wire, and a series of e-Wallets including Neteller and Skrill, while withdrawals can be processed via credit card, bank wire, Skrill, or Neteller. One of the advantages of running a casino that does not offer bonuses is, at least in theory, the fact that casino staff should not have to spend much time at all vetting withdrawals due to the lack of scope for so-called "bonus abuse" (a.k.a players that are better at maths than the casino).
Taking this to its inevitable conclusion, I had hoped that the withdrawal payments from this casino would be automated and instantaneous after the initial KYC and identification checks had been completed. Unfortunately that was not the case and my test transaction came through to my Skrill account overnight after its submission in the early evening. Obviously that is still pretty quick, but it seems to me that this casino is simply using the exact same withdrawal process as the other casinos in the group, all of which offer bonuses. To me this is a small missed opportunity. I also noted that the casino does not pay withdrawals at all over weekends, and there is a €5000 daily withdrawal limit, though thankfully pooled progressive wins are not subject to these limitations.
One very good thing about this casino, and indeed all run by the same operator, is that the operator segregates customer funds from the day to day operational funds of the casino. The segregation used by this casino meets the UKGC medium standards classification. What this means is that if the operator were to go out of business, player deposits would be returned to players and could not be used to pay off the operator's debts to creditors.
The customer service offered by the casino is closer to run of the mill, rather than what I would characterise as "excellent" as claimed. You can talk to someone at the casino either via telephone (requiring an international call to Malta) or via the live chat tab that is present on every page of the website, but only between the Euro-centric hours of 10am to 1am CET. Outside of that time your enquiries are emailed to the support staff to handle in the next day's shift.
No Bonus Casino encrypts its information using a standard SSL connection, meaning that your transmissions to and from the casino are private. I was unable to find any payout or third party fairness information on the site, which is a bit of a disappointment. On the positive side, you can find the payout rate for most of the slot machines individually in the help section for each game.
This casino offers you the ability to self manage deposit, wager, and loss limits, as well as account timeouts and self exclusion. These settings can be accessed via your account page within the casino.
I've been banging on for years to anyone who will listen that someone should launch a casino that specifically and proudly states that it doesn't offer bonuses. Well here is one and it's well worth a visit. The 10% cashback is especially good if you are one to either bank a win or play through all of your deposit. However the reality is that everything else at this casino is no different to any of the others run by the same management, so the potential advantages of not offering bonuses such as automated withdrawal payments to verified customers are not being fully harnessed.

an casino where you can't get a bonus! well i was shocked, since in the begin of them i thought, well why would people play there then if you can't get anything extra, but the best came later i wrote that you get cashback on every deposit, and promotion's they have give you more cashback then normal, i had different cashback's from them since i play there and i must say it's always smooth and without any problems added, very cool and unique system! also they are part of L&L group limited, who have way more famous and excellent casino's on the web! all of them have mostly same customer agents working, professional,clear,friendly! most important words about not only there support agents, but also bit on there casino's! only bad point on them is they don't process any withdrawals in the weekend i really hope this change fast!
No Bonus is a very nice casino. I found them a few years ago when they were quite new and didn't have much exposure. I really liked the whole concept of no bonus, because as we know, things can get bad when people take bonuses and breach some terms just by not being careful enough- at this casino you don't have that opportunity which is great. I have played there many times and have had my highs and lows- I have had withdrawals there and never had any difficulties getting them. I also really enjoy their game seletion as they have my dear Netent games. Support is always professional, so I think they are pretty great.
they are not interesting fpr me. just come and make a deposit. if i lose they giving me a little chance to play again. not good for play at low bankroll because they give cashback of the total deposit. it might be good to play a lot, but that's not me and beyond my ability.


nuu:bit, the advanced CDN company, recently announced its new Distributed Compute Environment (DCE). The nuu:bit DCE is designed to allow the execution of code at the network edge closest to the end user, aiming to make the development and deployment of applications quicker and more affordable.
Serverless is emerging as a major new force in compute services, offering speed and lower costs in developing applications than current solutions. There is increasing demand for higher speed of development amidst a competitive landscape and ever-evolving technologies. However, manual, often fragmented processes can make it difficult for developers to achieve such speed without errors.
The nuu:bit serverless DCE platform is a global serverless computing platform "that pushes application logic closer to end users allowing you to develop and deploy your applications faster". Developers do not need to predetermine how much storage and database capacity is needed ahead of deployment, which can slow the process down significantly. nuu:bit also promises that DCE allows developers to place their focus on developing and delivering apps instead of having to "worry about managing, provisioning and maintaining servers when deploying code".
For legacy applications, the DCE platform aims to improve performance for the end user and reduce backend costs by distributing the processing on a global basis.
The new cloud computing model that the nuu:bit FaaS service offers allows developers to shrink the size of their custom code base and reduce the risks of bugs and vulnerabilities that are often lurking in single-tiered software applications. Smaller software components are more loosely coupled, making it harder for changes in one service to adversely impact other services that depend on it, thereby simplifying the process of orchestrating quick, incremental code changes. Furthermore because app logic is distributed, the system can easily scale.
Varnish VCL and Lua are both currently supported via nuu:bit.
The nuu:bit Hosted Modules feature makes it more straightforward to deploy a SaaS offering with a NGINX or Varnish module, including hosted custom modules. A granular analytics framework allows for instant visibility and straightforward monitoring of applications without additional development required. The managed platform reduces operational costs because of the smaller amount of code needed to develop a SaaS offering, in addition to savings offered by the automatic distribution component.

A Book Review of Rewrite the Stars by Julieann Dove with Excerpt & Teaser
Rewrite the Stars by Julieann Dove
Date Published: August 23, 2018
For ten summers Claire and her mother had been guests at the Prescott's beach house at Kelly's Cove. And for ten years she played with Mallory and her twin brother, Colin. But it wasn't until she returned after college graduation for her last summer there, that she realized Colin had grown into a guy who made her knees knock just by smiling at her. Being from different worlds, she knew nothing would come from her attraction to him.
Having returned to the states from studying abroad for four years, the last person Colin thought he'd find staying in his bedroom was Claire Ashton. Lanky and awkward during her adolescent years, he had to look twice to make sure this was the same girl. After a week together it was obvious he'd overlooked something before, because he felt things for her he'd never experienced before. There was only one problem—his last name and all that came with it would never permit him to be with her.
In the end, it's either love or prestige that will win in the game of love.
Rewrite the Stars by Julieann Dove. This is a hard one to talk about, because there were moments I loved it, and there were moments I hated it.
Claire is mourning her Mom's death, and this place and these people hold so many memories that include her mom. So, it's hard for her. Claire and Colin are childhood friends who haven't seen each other in years. I know they have known each other forever, but it's been a while, and the romance happened super fast. Too fast to feel much of the chemistry, but the lust was definitely there. Shortly after, things get serious, the story takes a darker turn. My heart broke for all the characters. Seriously. The soul of every single one of them is dying. Their lives are all interconnected tragedies. Then something happens to completely changes everything. I like the whole concept, but I needed more from that ending. It all changed and wrapped up so quickly, but there were more things I needed to know about the future of these characters. It desperately needed an epilogue. Overall, I'm not sure how I feel about the book just yet. Too many feels still. I really hope there's an epilogue extra out there in the future, because that could really make a difference in the reading experience of this book.
Rewrite the Stars by Julieann Dove was kindly provided to me by Indie Sage PR for review. The opinions are my own.
He swam closer to her, reaching out in the dark recesses of the water and brushing against her arm. Thoughts of having accidently touched her in other places began sending messages to his mind, thus sending a wave of heat through his already cooling off body. She situated herself in front of him, holding onto his arms. They were face to face with one another. Her wet hair smelled like strawberries.
"That's better," she said.
He watched as she looked in his eyes. Her lips were glistening in the light of the moon. Her hair was completely soaked and pulled back from her face. A smile broke out on her face. He was barely able to make out the dimple on her right cheek that he'd known was there. "You have a pretty smile."
"Does that mean you purposely looked at me changing out of my gown and now feel guilty about it? By saying something nice?"
"Man, has anyone ever paid you a complement that you didn't think had an ulterior motive behind it?"
"Says the guy who climbed up in a tree to watch me swim naked?"
"Jeez, that was years ago, Claire. We're grown up now. You've definitely grown up."
"What does that mean?" She stopped twirling him around in circles.
"Just that you've matured. You're very pretty. Some might say alluring. Maybe not me, but some might."
"Okay. Thank you…I think. And why not you?"
"Oh, you know. I've seen your skinny body—pre-college years. It's not for me to say something like that. We have history…snakes, frogs…you know."
No, she didn't. He wanted to say he did find her alluring. Captivating even. He wanted to tell her how she made him feel at ease, or how at dinner he thought several times that she'd caught him watching her, or even how the sight of her body made him wish they were two different people in a different time.
"I dare you to swim to the beacon."
"Now?" He held tighter to her arms. She was drifting from his grasp.
Without hesitation, he swam in the direction of that stupid beacon. "Hey, wait, I was kidding. Not tonight," she yelled out to him.
It was too late, he was headed for it. Something of a challenge for his male ego. He'd taken up swimming as a sport in college and knew he could do it without a problem. That was until he heard Claire's scream.
"Colin, come quick."
He whipped around and did long breaststrokes to back to her.
"Something brushed up against me. God, it's going to eat me alive! I felt it." She was hysterical, flailing her arms and panting wildly.
He finally made it to her. She grabbed his neck and pulled him closer. He noticed she was shaking, her lips even quivering.
"It's okay. I've got you." He stroked her hair, trying his best to calm her down.
"It was something big. I thought it was going to grab my legs and take me under. Colin, I'm serious."
He felt her breasts press against him, her breathing rising and lowering with rapidness. Her legs had become locked around his waist. He felt his own heart, palpitating like a man who'd just swam thirty laps in less than two minutes. But, it wasn't from the swim. It was from the touch of her skin on his. He had to get some space between them.
"Let's get you out of here. Come on."
When they got to shallow water she un-gripped the vice she had put on him. He escorted her to the sandy beach. The moon temporarily had ducked behind a cloud, making it difficult to see their way back to the pier.
"Stand here, I'll go and get your gown."
Claire stood there and waited for him to return, her arms crossed in front of her. He was glad for the opportunity to get himself in check before standing close to her again. When he returned with the gown, he'd already put on his shorts. He handed her clothes to her, with his other hand over his eyes. "Here."
It took her only a second to get dressed. "You can open your eyes now," she said quietly.
He removed his hand and looked at her. Even in the dimmer light, she looked so much better with nothing on. He knew he better get it together before morning came and he had to face her in the daylight. His mother had always told him how transparent his feelings about things showed on his face.
"I might actually get some sleep after all that exercise in screaming and flailing for my life."
He laughed and took her hand in his. It felt like the natural thing to do now that they'd done it in the water, but she seemed puzzled by it. Her big brown eyes squinted, almost questioning his. It was too late to let it go. He figured if she didn't want to hold his, she would've let go first. But she didn't, she squeezed harder.
They returned to the creaking back porch door. Before she grabbed for it, he took her other hand and held it in his. "I had a great time with you tonight, Claire. Even if all you did was scream like a girl and think an eel was eating at your legs."
"That was an—"
Before she could finish her sentence, he lightly pulled her by the neck and kissed her. Her lips were moist and chilled like the water they'd just come from—salty, too. He wasn't sure if she was going to kiss back or smack him for getting fresh. When he pulled away he saw her eyes were still closed. She seemed more relaxed than earlier. He'd wagered correctly. Claire Ashton was receptive to what this summer could turn out to be for the both of them.
Julieann lives in Virginia, where she loves collecting houseplants, sewing cute little quilts, and writing about messy love. She fell in love with reading at a young age, after following Nancy Drew in solving the mysteries of the world. This carries on today, as crime shows are among her favorite to watch. Well those and the Hallmark channel love stories and mysteries. Keeping busy with soon-to-be six children, she needs time to unwind!

Carbonylchromium Monotelluride Complexes [Et4N] 2[Te{Cr(CO)5}n (n = 2, 3): Two Important Intermediates
Minghuey Shieh, Li Fang Ho, Yu Wen Guo, Shu Fen Lin, Yi Chun Lin, Shie Ming Peng, Yi Hung Liu
The first isolation of the monotelluride-bridged chromium carbonyl complexes [Et4N]2[Te-{Cr(CO)5}n] (n = 3, [Et4N]2[1]; n = 2, [Et4N]2[2]) has been achieved from the reaction of Te powder with 3 equiv of Cr(CO) 6 in the presence of [Et4N]Br in concentrated KOH/EtOH solution. According to X-ray analysis, anion 1 displays a pyramidal geometry with the Te atom bonded to three Cr(CO)3 fragments and anion 2 exhibits a nonlinear structure with the Te atom coordinated with two Cr(CO) 5 moieties. Complex 1 can transform to 2 in the presence of Cr(CO)6/KOH/EtOH solution. Conversely, 2 can convert back to 1 upon the reaction with Cr(CO)6 in MeCN. Interestingly, the novel C-O activation of MeOH is observed when 1 was treated with NaOH/MeOH solution at 70 °C, giving the Te-methylated product [Et4N] [MeTe{Cr(CO) 5}2] ([Et4N][3]). Complex 2 is reactive toward some organic solvents. It can react with CH2Cl2 to form the CH2-bridged tetrachromium complex [Et4N] 2[CH2{TeCr2-(CO)10}2] ([Et4N]2[4]) and can transform to the known tetrachromium tritelluride complex [Et4N]2[Te3{Cr(CO) 5}4], in MeOH solution. Besides, we also found that 2 can undergo oxidative coupling with [Cu(MeCN)4]BF4 in MeOH to form the dimeric open cluster [Te2{Cr(CO)5} 4]2- and can react with NaOH in MeOH to give the dimeric ring complex [Te2Cr4(CO)18]2-. Complexes 1-4 are fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray analysis. This paper describes that complexes 1 and 2 are important intermediates for a series of tellurium-containing polychromium complexes, and the interesting structural features of the resultant new polychromium carbonyl complexes are compared as well.

N2 - The first isolation of the monotelluride-bridged chromium carbonyl complexes [Et4N]2[Te-{Cr(CO)5}n] (n = 3, [Et4N]2[1]; n = 2, [Et4N]2[2]) has been achieved from the reaction of Te powder with 3 equiv of Cr(CO) 6 in the presence of [Et4N]Br in concentrated KOH/EtOH solution. According to X-ray analysis, anion 1 displays a pyramidal geometry with the Te atom bonded to three Cr(CO)3 fragments and anion 2 exhibits a nonlinear structure with the Te atom coordinated with two Cr(CO) 5 moieties. Complex 1 can transform to 2 in the presence of Cr(CO)6/KOH/EtOH solution. Conversely, 2 can convert back to 1 upon the reaction with Cr(CO)6 in MeCN. Interestingly, the novel C-O activation of MeOH is observed when 1 was treated with NaOH/MeOH solution at 70 °C, giving the Te-methylated product [Et4N] [MeTe{Cr(CO) 5}2] ([Et4N][3]). Complex 2 is reactive toward some organic solvents. It can react with CH2Cl2 to form the CH2-bridged tetrachromium complex [Et4N] 2[CH2{TeCr2-(CO)10}2] ([Et4N]2[4]) and can transform to the known tetrachromium tritelluride complex [Et4N]2[Te3{Cr(CO) 5}4], in MeOH solution. Besides, we also found that 2 can undergo oxidative coupling with [Cu(MeCN)4]BF4 in MeOH to form the dimeric open cluster [Te2{Cr(CO)5} 4]2- and can react with NaOH in MeOH to give the dimeric ring complex [Te2Cr4(CO)18]2-. Complexes 1-4 are fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray analysis. This paper describes that complexes 1 and 2 are important intermediates for a series of tellurium-containing polychromium complexes, and the interesting structural features of the resultant new polychromium carbonyl complexes are compared as well.

Tom Norquist taught special education at schools in the northern suburbs for close to three decades and also was a junior high school wrestling coach for many years.
Norquist, 70, died of a heart attack on Jan. 18 at the Bay at Burlington health and rehabilitation center in Burlington, Wis., said his wife of 48 years, Kathleen. He had been a Williams Bay, Wis., resident since June 2017, having previously lived in Chicago and suburbs including Wheeling.
Born and raised in Peoria, Norquist was the son of a Mennonite church pastor. He graduated from Woodruff High School in Peoria and then attended Fort Wayne Bible College, which now is part of Taylor University, in Fort Wayne, Ind. He later earned a bachelor's degree in education from Trinity College, now known as Trinity International University, in Deerfield.
While attending Trinity, Norquist and his wife applied for part-time jobs at the Central Baptist Children's Home — now known as One Hope United — in Lake Villa, where they became house parents for children aged 7 to 13 with behavioral disorders. That work cemented Norquist's desire to work with children in special education, his wife said.
After graduating from Trinity in 1973, Norquist worked as a special education teacher at Lincoln Middle School in Schiller Park for a year and then spent a year teaching at Field Elementary School in Wheeling. Norquist then left education to help run a janitorial company for close to a decade, his wife said.
Norquist returned to teaching in August 1983, taking a job teaching special education in East Maine School District 63. He taught first at Melzer Elementary School in Morton Grove and later at Nelson Elementary School in Niles. Eventually, starting in the mid-1990s, Norquist settled at Gemini Junior High in Niles, where he also worked as a wrestling coach for about 15 years.
"He always had been interested in being a coach, so he went to Gemini so he could also pursue work as a coach," Norquist's wife said.
Norquist also served as a tournament manager for a junior high school wrestling tournament and served on the Illinois Elementary School Association's wrestling advisory committee from 2000 until 2002.
Norquist was named Dist. 63's employee of the year in 2008. He also was named coach of the year in 2005 by the Niles Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Norquist worked for more than 25 summers as a camp director, and building and grounds supervisor at Jay's Camp, a day camp in Long Grove, his wife said. That ended about five years ago.
After retiring from full-time teaching at Gemini Junior High in June 2011, Norquist continued to work as a substitute teacher in Dist. 63 until 2017.
Norquist was a Sunday school superintendent, sound technician and custodian at Bethel Community Church in the Northwest Side Norwood Park neighborhood. Norquist also performed for children at the church, portraying the character of Psalty, the Singing Songbook.
In addition to his wife, Norquist is survived by two sons, Mark and Tory; a daughter, Leah Kelso; six grandchildren; and two brothers, Jerald and Stanley.

Primary Education in Stowupland
"The poor though desirous, are without the means of instruction, " {ECA: 1818 Select Committee on Education etc, Stowupland). Prior to the 19th century Parliamentary Acts on Education, children's academic learning, especially for the 'poor', was strongly associated with religious education.
Before 1936 Stowupland's border with Stowmarket was the River Gipping so many Stowupland children attended schools in Stowmarket. However the focus here is on the school that became Freeman Community Primary school. instruction.
Freeman Community Primary School.
The school has been renamed (e.g. national School, Council School, County Primary school and now Freeman's) and extended several times but behind the roadside facade the original school remains.

QotD: Thanksgiving
I first read today's quote in a fourth grade classroom seated next to a girl who claimed descent from George Washington. I suspected the claim at the time because George Washington had no biological children, but President Washington effectively adopted two of Martha Washington's children, so, maybe. The Civil War was over two years old and the ravaged nation could see no end in sight. The proclamation below managed to acknowledge the ongoing ordeal while placing it in the context of Providence.
By the President of the United States of America.
A Proclamation.
The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God. In the midst of a civil war of unequalled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign States to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere except in the theatre of military conflict; while that theatre has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union. Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defence, have not arrested the plough, the shuttle or the ship; the axe has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased, notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege and the battle-field; and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom. No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy. It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this Third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Independence of the United States the Eighty-eighth.
By the President: Abraham Lincoln
William H. Seward,
The words, we know today, were penned by Seward. We have the initial draft in his hand. Obviously, Lincoln endorsed them and made them his own. I draw on this moment for today's quote not just for the place of this speech in establishing Thanksgiving as a permanent national holiday, but it was a moment of crisis for the republic such as we have not seen since. And in that moment of crisis Lincoln directs our gaze to our blessings and to the Divine hand that gives. And takes away.
This year has seen crises either hyped into hysteria or gaslighted out of existence, but history provides some perspective. A sound assessment of conditions is necessary to effectively address those conditions as needed. We need to be as stalwart and steadfast as those earlier Americans to right this ship and once again lead the free world, as always, with the Lord's help. I humbly call on the people of this great republic this day to take stock of their blessings and bless those around them. Please feel free to share those blessings below, as the spirit moves you.
This was not the beginning of the Thanksgiving tradition, by any means. That is usually attributed to Plymouth Colony in October of 1621. Other presidents had previously declared a day of thanksgiving in the harvest season. And various states and counties over the years took up such a celebration. When was the first American Thanksgiving? Just down the road from me at Berkeley Plantation, VA, in October 1619, of course. From a piece by Wilford Kale in Wednesday's Williamsburg Gazette:
On instructions from The London Co., when the settlers landed at Berkeley Hundred, ship Capt. John Woodlief, in a solemn religious observance, prayed: "We ordaine that this day of our ships arrival, at the place assigned for plantacon, in the land of Virginia, shall be yearly and perpetually kept holy as a day of Thanksgiving for Almighty God."
There were no Indians at this one because the settlers landed in and established Jamestown in a fever-ridden pesthole that the Indians avoided because it was obviously cursed. In this day of the virus, it is interesting to remember that the first surviving English colonial settlement, Jamestown, suffered fatalities due to illness approaching 50% of the population per year. In 1610 there was a drought and they suffered 80-90% losses. It was not unusual for a new arrival to be taken sick for up to five years before their immune system successfully conquered the many endemiological hazards of the Tidewater area. They were not deterred.
Our nation has endured worse and will endure this. The plough, the shuttle, the ship, and the axe will be worked, the hungry will be fed, the sick will be cared for, and Americans will continue to fight for the promised freedoms that generations of settlers have come here to realize. Our shackles will fall away, and our better angels will lead us home.
God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.

Now, that's an interesting fact for me as he was a half-(some number of greats)-granduncle. (I believe it was that his mother remarried and had my direct ancestor with her second husband, or similar.) Nice bit of Thanksgiving history.

God bless us everyone. And Happy Thanksgiving!

The main reason that the Pilgrims were highlighted instead of Jamestown was that Plymouth was not in the Confederacy.
The Pilgrims were not a big focus for Sarah Hale who started lobbying for a national day of thanksgiving in 1846.
The South even wasn't all that enthused about the event until well into the Gilded Age when football became a thing …. :)
That said, this is one of the best holidays ever. Who wouldn't like an excuse to be with family, reflect on blessings, and eat pumpkin pie????

Recently I talked to a friend of mine who is Canadian, and she was astounded that we celebrate it on a Thursday, rather than on a Monday.
I tried to point out that the idea of getting off work at 2:30 Pm on Wednesday and not coming back into work until Monday morning is really a kuhl thing.
Plus the tryptophans in the turkey would make it really hard for anyone who binged out on a Monday to be effective at work on Tuesday.
I agree with you on how ludicrous that sentence was.
Grwoing up in Chicago, I never really got how devastating the Civil War was. I mean, one or two older relatives took my dad and me through a couple of Civil War National Parks, but until I read a book that focused on Gettysburg, I didn't get it.
Imagine you have just had the housecleaner into your four bedroom home, and everything is spic and span. Then two days later, badly injured and dying soldiers are lying across every surface of your home. Blood and guts and stench and the horror of watching people die permeate your home and those of your neighbors.
I often wondered if the people whose homes had been converted to impromptu hospitals were ever able to live in those homes again.

Back to Berlin
By Cara Joy David December 8, 2006
What would happen if, in our time, a German chancellor urged 6 million Jews to relocate to Germany? That is the question posed by Israel Horovitz's play "Lebensraum," which will enjoy a limited engagement at off-Broadway's Kirk Theatre at Theatre Row from December 13 through December 30.
In "Lebensraum," a German chancellor does indeed make the entreaty mentioned above, promising all Jewish immigrants citizenship and employment. The play features a cast of three actors (T. Ryder Smith, Suli Holum and Ryan Young) portraying more than 80 characters, including a laid-off Jewish dock-worker who travels from Massachusetts to Bremerhaven; an Auschwitz survivor who returns to Berlin to find the woman who betrayed his family to the Nazis; a young German girl who falls in love with one of the new citizens, and many others. With the influx of inhabitants, many native Germans are displaced, much to their displeasure.
"Lebensraum" marks the start of a busy time for Horovitz, who has about 50 full-length stage works to his credit as well as screenplays for numerous films. In January 2007, after "Lebensraum" closes, the small Barefoot Theatre Company will present "Israel Horovitz's New Shorts," a compilation of nine new Horovitz plays, at the 78th Street Theatre Lab. Then, in February, the producing wing of The New York Playwrights Lab, a society of scribes founded by Horovitz in 1975, will launch with the premiere of the author's "The Secret of Mme. Bonnard's Bath" on Theatre Row. Because it kicks off this loose celebration, this staging of "Lebensraum" is of particular import.
"Some of [my plays] are quite good, some of them are less than quite good. I think that 'Lebensraum' is quite good," Horovitz said in an interview before acknowledging 'that opinion and $1 will buy you a copy of the Forward."
In the late 1800s, the word Lebensraum, which means "living space," came to represent an ideology that held there was not enough room for the expansion of the German people. Adolf Hitler embraced this philosophy and used it to justify his expansionist principles.
Horovitz was inspired to write "Lebensraum" after he took a particularly disturbing journey to Germany more than a decade ago. Although Germany is seen by many as one of the least antisemitic countries in Europe today, Horovitz's experience was different. There to see productions several of his plays, he remembers meeting an actress who told him: "You can't have Jewish character in plays in Germany… it doesn't 'smell' good." This led him to have a discussion with his German translator, a young woman who had grown up knowing not a single Jew. Horovitz learned that it had been hard for her traveling the world, because of anti-German sentiment after the war.Horovitz began to believe that Germans of her generation would one day think, "These abstract Jews are causing me a lot of trouble." It was exactly the sort of sentiment that, he thought, could lead to another Holocaust — and trying to evoke it in modern terms became the goal for this play.
If the piece sounds too serious to bear, it's not all Sturm und Drang. There are many light moments — including one in which an actor simultaneously plays two elderly Jews in the midst of an argument — and good deal of the play's humor draws on old-time shtick ("He opened a business as a Mr. Fix-It," one character says. "He should have called his business Mr. Break-It-Worse!").
"It's a blend of comedy and tragedy," Horovitz said. "I don't think the subject can be treated with somber seriousness and still find an audience."
The play, first produced almost a decade ago, has been presented all over the world. While it is about a particular people, the events portrayed could happen to anyone. "The threat of genocide is universal, and the play incorporates universal themes in an intensely entertaining way to make this very point," noted Jonathan Rest, who directed the piece. "'Lebensraum' is about fear of people different from ourselves. Given what's going on in our country and in the world, can you think of a more timely and important topic?"

Can Trump restore America and change the status quo?
Vox Populi, Vox Dei — The Voice Of The People Is the Voice of God – is inscribed on the alabaster frieze of the Union County Courthouse in Elizabeth.
In 1776, the American colonists threw off the yoke of Aristocratic rule and started a new concept: "The American Experiment". The establishment of representative government, whereby the citizens took control of governing themselves, was unique, and after 240 years, still endures. We have had many bumps in the road along the way. However, our institution still survives. Slowly, we have cultivated a group of political elitists who feel it is their destiny to rule. This has resulted in a government loaded with people, some elected, some not, who wish to direct our lives.
Now out of the plebian pot rises Donald Trump to shake the elitists to their bones. The commoners are revolting. Donald Trump is one of us – well, not exactly. None of us are billionaires like Donald Trump. He is not suave and smooth talking like a trained politician or a political hack. He put his money where his mouth is. He speaks like the ordinary person in the vernacular of his native New York City. This abrasiveness is exciting to some and a turn off to others.
How you are disposed to vote is your private concern. Look at Trump's opposition. It is the imbedded political class: Democrats and Republicans, who have made a career ruling over us. George Washington, our first president, would not accept the title of king. Our current president would probably be inclined to accept.
Our republic was founded on the concept that our government would be formed by representatives who were voted by the citizens to temporary terms, after which they would return home and live under the laws they enacted. This concept has gone awry. These legislators have found a place where they can get fat and rich and make a career with benefits we can only dream about.
Now Donald Trump is about to upset that apple cart. Will he lead a parade that changes the status quo and we return to our original governmental idea: Vox Populi, Vox Dei?

2018-19 Friends of Saint Anselm Men's Basketball
Guers selected to NCAA Division II Elite Eight All-Tournament Team
EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Senior Tim Guers (Langhorne, Pa.) of the Saint Anselm College men's basketball team was named to the 2019 NCAA Division II Men's Basketball Elite Eight All-Tournament Team on Saturday.
Guers propelled the Hawks to their first-ever victory in the Elite Eight, scoring 31 points against No. 5-ranked Nova Southeastern on Wednesday before pouring in 23 points against No. 1-ranked Northwest Missouri State on Thursday. He combined to post 12 rebounds and nine assists across the two games played at the Ford Center in Evansville.
A key member of only the second Saint Anselm team to appear in the Elite Eight, Guers capped a strong career with NABC All-America honors for the second consecutive season.
