The Smith Street Band, Bec Sandridge, Press Club @ Thebarton Theatre, Adelaide 7/4/2018
It's Saturday night in Adelaide, and Thebby is sold out. I've managed to snaffle a comfy couch up the back and I'm really looking forward to watching the bands tonight. I also have an excellent view of this beautiful theatre. (Side note: Dear Thebarton Theatre, please don't ever 'revamp' this place. It's wonderful the way it is. Thanks, love Carly)
I had heard Press Club mentioned on the radio before, but I don't think I've ever managed to catch a tune…. whoa! They are full on! The band members playing instruments are tight and focused and casually professional. Lead singer Natalie Foster is raw and explosive, giving 100% at all times and performing as if she's in a stadium many times larger than the room she is now in. Thrashing her hair around, jumping into the air and never missing a note. When she does stay still, she poses for the audience at the edge of the stage, making eye contact with eager and grateful onlookers, including a special, more intimate performance for one of the bouncers. He appears to enjoy this very much.
In my notes I've written Headwreck – A Game – Punk as
Have a listen, find the video so you can experience the frenetic energy of Foster's performance.
There is much moshing and a few early crowd surfers having torches shone on them in discouragement. I'm sure that's going to help…
Dreamy 80's pop synths start up and Bec Sandridge enters the stage and opens with High Tide. I am momentarily worried that the bands have played in the wrong order, with Press Club being so frantic and unrestrained. Bec is energy of a different kind though, prancing on the spot on her tiptoes, daintily trotting across the performance space. Are the crowd appreciative? Well, I've just witnessed my first in real life shoey, so I'm gonna go with yes. I would not have guessed that Bec Sandridge would be the soundtrack to this experience. No judging… you do you, shoey guy.
Both of tonight's support bands have played with the drums set to the side of the stage. I have to say, I am a fan. Drummers often get stuck up the back and this feels much more inclusive. I'm especially glad tonight as I get to watch drummer Francesca Adeline perform. The effortlessly talented drummer would have been lost behind the drums in a regular stage set up. Lewis Moody on keys is also enjoyable to watch, and that synth sound is awesome.
Sandridge is a superb songwriter and storyteller. You're a Fucking Joke, she explains, is about flying to Scotland for someone you love, only to find that while you were on your way, that person has announced on Facebook that they are in a relationship. Not with you. Aah, love, what an endless well to draw inspiration from. Maybe I'll take this story to heart and not buy that plane ticket I've been almost clicking on for weeks now… will we ever learn? At least its song writing fodder.
The final song for this group tonight is the much loved I'll Never Have a Boyfriend, which is stopped after the intro so Bec can take a video of us to send to her mum to show her how cute we all are. Aw, thanks Bec <3
So far as the crew are setting up for The Smith Street Band, we've had three singalongs. The first was It's Raining Men, by The Weather Girls. The second was well known by the rest of the crowd though I don't think I'm trendy enough to know it, but the third received the biggest cheer and most enthusiastic chorus. Who knew I Wanna Dance With Somebody was still such a hit? Moments like this are so great. Sure, we're all here to see some great bands, but a spontaneous group singalong to Whitney Houston is what makes nights like this really special.
The Smith Street Band open with Birthdays, a sweet song about mental illness and love. Many of their songs touch on these topics, Wil Wagner's poetic and descriptive lyrics concerning life and love seeming to resonate with the sold out crowd as they enthusiastically shout his words back at him.
Or maybe not. Maybe they're not really listening, they just like the way the songs sound. 'Good evening, friends' Wagner addresses the masses before him, 'We're not gonna be dickheads. We're gonna keep our shirts on and look after each other'. Except that's not what happens. There are shirts removed and circle pits starting, the mosh is rough and spilling over everyone in waves, reaching the back of the theatre. These are the same people singing Death To The Lads at the top of their voices, entirely without irony.
It must be a difficult situation to have playing out before you as you're singing out your feelings to two thousand people. They're clearly enjoying themselves, and you're loving their pleasure, but such intimate, heartfelt lyrics are coupled with such boisterous and abrasive actions. In any case, there is total enjoyment of every song, each one greeted with ecstatic cheers. Something I Can Hold in My Hands, Surrender, I Don't Wanna Die Anymore, Song For You, Passiona, Shine, Young Drunk, they're all excellent songs, and the addition of Jess Locke and Lucy Wilson is welcome. Their harmonies gel perfectly, lifting and bringing some extra depth to these already powerful songs.
The Smith Street Band have been working hard, writing, touring and releasing albums for the last eight years. I get the feeling that if Wil Wagner could hug each one of us and say thank you, he would. There's an invitation open to all to meet back at the Ed Castle for beers and the possibility of starting an indoor soccer team, and I wouldn't be surprised to find out that place hit capacity last night too.
Despite some quite sombre lyrics, The Smith Street Band appear to be in a good place right now. Joyous anthem I Love Life, is a wonderful way to end the set, with the final lyrics referencing Something I Can Hold in My Hands, filling the old theatre at full volume.
Next time Wagner feels down, he says he's going to think of this gig and the happiness it's brought him. You're welcome, Wil, any time. Come back soon.

In what has become a Christmas tradition for Maggie and I, we've gone outdoor skating in Pittsburgh. Last year, we skated at the public rink in PPG Plaza. But this year was different, and on a Christmas Eve that is typical of a Pittsburgh winter gray, overcast, and just cold enough to support a fresh layer of snow in the morning, we had a memorable experience at the 2011 Winter Classic Community Rink. The rink, which was constructed as part of the festivities for the 2011 Winter Classic between the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins, is located just outside of Heinz Field.
In the time span of five days, the parking lot that sits between Stage AE and Heinz Field was transformed into a regulation ice rink where public skating, youth, high school, and college hockey games will take place. Sure it's not a Rockfeller Center, but you really can't beat skating outside with an entire city skyline as a backdrop!
Earlier this month, I took a trip along the various backroads of Western Tennessee and Kentucky with Billy Riddle.
The loop route went as follows: US 70, TN 47, TN 49, TN 147, TN 69A, US 641, TN 54, TN 22, US 51, Purchase Parkway, US 45, KY 121, KY 80/(US 68) , and I-24 into Nashville.
For the entire flickr photo set - head here.
Our first stop was a walk around Billy's hometown of Kingston Springs, Tennessee. The small Cheatham county town along the Harpeth River has slowly become one of Nashville's more popular bedroom communities.
...with traditional Southern small town features.
There are also some older items in town that caught my eye. Like this old fire call box - only a few blocks from the fire station.
The former train depot in town sits perpendicular to the train tracks. I wonder if it had been moved. It appears that it has been in various stages of restoration and uses.

Update: Scout volunteer charged in child-sex sting The sting involved multiple agencies and lasted from Thursday through Saturday. Check out this story on wausaudailyherald.com: http://wdhne.ws/1w3BEG2

WAUSAU – Six men, including one who was a volunteer with the Boy Scouts, were charged in Marathon County court Monday in connection with a regional child sex sting that netted 24 arrests over the weekend.
Named Operation Aegis, the sting targeted online predators who solicit children, according to a news release from the Oneida County Sheriff's Department. It is the largest of five operations conducted in the last two years in terms of the number of arrests, Press-Gazette Media in Green Bay reported.
David Cantrell, 39, of Rothschild was a volunteer with the Boy Scouts of America Samoset Council until Monday, said Jeff Ottosen, the Council's Scout executive. Ottosen said he did not immediately know how long Cantrell had been a volunteer and said Cantrell's position with the Boy Scouts ended Monday when the organization learned of the charges.
The sting involved investigators from across the state posing online as children. They then arrested the suspects, according to the Oneida County Sheriff's Department news release.
Cantrell was charged with using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, according to court records. Assistant District Attorney Michael Puerner said Cantrell suggested to a person he thought was 15 years old that they go to a secluded park. He purchased condoms on the way to the meeting, Puerner said.
Circuit Judge Jill Falstad set a $5,000 signature bond with the first $2,000 in cash with conditions that Cantrell have no contact with children younger than 18, that he not use any computers and that he not volunteer with the Boy Scouts while the case is pending.
A preliminary hearing in the case is set for Nov. 25.
Among the other charges:
• Matthew Burks, 26, of Wausau was charged with using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to court records.
Burks believed he was corresponding with a 15-year-old in order to have sexual contact and was "very explicit" in messages, Puerner said. Burks also had methamphetamine when he was arrested, Puerner said.
Falstad set a $10,000 cash bond in Burks' case and ordered that he have no contact with children younger than 18, maintain absolute sobriety and that he contact ATTIC Correctional Services.
A preliminary hearing in his case set for Oct. 22.
• Derek Kressel, 31, of Wausau was charged with using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime. Puerner said Kressel tried to arrange sexual contact with a person he thought was 15 years old but Kressel's attorney argued that his client thought the person was 16 years old. The state statute under which Kressel is charged specifies that the perpetrator must believe he or she is contacting someone younger than 16 years old.
Falstad ordered that Kressel be held on a $5,000 signature bond with the first $2,000 in cash. He had posted bond by 5:30 p.m. Monday, according to the Marathon County Jail. Conditions include that he have no contact with children younger than 18 except for incidental contact at work or in public and that he not use a computer or the Internet.
A preliminary hearing in the case is scheduled for Nov. 25.
• Trevor Kuta, 17, of Marathon is facing a single charge of exposing a child to harmful descriptions, according to court records. Kuta believed he was contacting a 12-year-old for sexual contact and made "admissions" to law enforcement, Puerner said.
Falstad set a $3,000 signature bond to be co-signed by Kuta's mother and ordered that he have no contact with children younger than 15 and refrain from using computers and the Internet. He had left the jail by 5:30 p.m. Monday.
A preliminary hearing is set for Nov. 25.
• Gregory Pfingsten, 56, of Wausau was charged with using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime. He attempted to arrange sexual contact with a 15-year-old, Puerner said.
Falstad ordered him held on a $5,000 cash bond with conditions that he have no contact with children younger than 18 and that he refrain from using computers or the Internet.

The sting involved multiple agencies and lasted from Thursday through Saturday, according to the Marathon County Sheriff's Department.
Eleven arrests were made in Brown County, three in Shawano County, two in Oneida County and one each in Two Rivers and Superior. One of the two men arrested in Oneida County is from Weston, according to a news release from the Oneida County Sheriff's Department.

In the EU began consideration of the case against Hungary
BY Flyn Braun	 September 17, 2019 3:41 am GMT+0300 278 Views
In Brussels began consideration of the disciplinary proceedings initiated a year ago by the European Parliament against Hungary. At the meeting of EU Ministers on Monday, September 16, a report prepared by parliamentarians was presented, which, in particular, notes the infringement of media freedom, changes in electoral legislation, pressure on public institutions and the closure of the Central European University.
Berlin and Paris urged Hungary to respond to the charges
Berlin and Paris called on the Hungarian authorities to provide evidence of the illegality of the charges against them of disrespect for European values and violation of the principles of the rule of law. Critical points from the European Parliament the policy statement of Budapest "is alarming," said French Secretary of state for EU Affairs Amélie de Montchalin, in his statement on behalf of the governments in Paris and Berlin.
She called on the authorities in Budapest to respond to the report and respond to the allegations. The discussion at the meeting of the Council of Ministers should allow the Hungarian government to "understand our concerns, respond to them and commit to eliminating them," said the next de Montchalin.
In turn, the Hungarian government confirmed its position, calling the penalty process initiated by the European Commission "politically motivated" and "in many aspects incorrect in content."
Some EU members oppose the penalty procedure
A formal warning by the EU Council of Ministers, which would be the first of several stages of the penalty procedure, requires the support of 22 of the 28 EU countries. It is unclear whether a vote will take place soon, as several Eastern European community members oppose the penalty procedure.
It has been a year since the case against Hungary was brought before the EU Council of Ministers for the first time: the European Parliament approved a penalty procedure against Hungary in September 2018.
The European Union accuses Budapest of violating the principles of the rule of law, in particular, harassment of non-governmental organizations. Now the EU Council will have to decide whether Hungary will be launched a penalty procedure under article 7 of the Treaty on European Union, which allows, among other things, to deprive it of a vote in the EU Council. If EU Ministers agree to the launch of the penalty procedure, Hungary will have to explain its actions.


The failed brokerage-and-commodities firm MF Global (in which the author invested, sadly) is the subject of a criminal investigation by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office, according to this report (go to page 2).
Such investigations often presume guilt and sometimes work backwards, starting with the presumed wrongdoer (in official law enforcement parlance, a "target"). Observers should be patient for the findings to come out, and for justice to be served.
As for MF Global former CEO Jon Corzine, I believe that he placed himself in greater jeopardy of being charged with any crime, merely by talking. (Don't know how? See this analysis, entitled "Corzine Becomes A Criminal," in which I predict attempts to criminalize any misstatement or incomplete recollection, however nuanced and qualified, particularly if prosecutors cannot charge him with a substantive crime.) He is a presumptive subject and desired target -- if only for his name cachet and potential to "make" someone's career -- and on that basis alone it should be presumed that efforts to charge him are already underway.

Reviews and Media
"For over a decade, Thomas Homer-Dixon has provided that rare thing: a bridge between leading-edge research and the lay reader. Now, addressing the greatest problems of our time, he points us towards a path forward…."
Robert Kaplan, Atlantic Monthly, senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute
From the #1 bestselling thought leader:
Calling on history, cutting-edge research, complexity science and even The Lord of the Rings, Thomas Homer-Dixon lays out the tools we can command to rescue a world on the brink.
"Homer-Dixon is not prepared to tell his children we are a failed species. Read this book and take on your part — wielding hope like a weapon in the fight for survival."
Elizabeth May, MP for Gulf Saanich-Islands, Former leader of the Green Party of Canada
View Excerpt
Frightening pandemics, terrible inequality, racism and poverty, rising political authoritarianism, the inescapable climate crisis, and the resuscitated danger of nuclear war.
We know the story. Some choose not to see it. Each of these crises seems so much larger than any one of us can understand or handle. Yet today, they all seem to be going critical simultaneously. In Commanding Hope, I show why and how we got here; and most importantly, I show the powers we possess to renew our imperiled world. This is a hopeful book.
To begin, I explain how today's globe-spanning crises all stem from common sources: beliefs and values that are too self-centered, political systems that are too hidebound, economies that are too rapacious, and technologies that are too dirty for a small, crowded planet with dwindling resources and fraying natural systems.
I draw on decades of my work on global security and social cohesion to identify the relentless demographic, environmental, political, and economic stresses that will shape humanity's prospects in the coming decades. I then show what we need—as people, communities, organizations, and societies—to stop and reverse the cascading failure of our natural systems, the crippling of our economies, and the deepening of our social divisions.
People's worldviews are the key leverage point, I argue. They're the place where personal and social action must begin, if we're to create the virtuous cascades of the systemic, positive change we need.
A reinvigorated idea of hope is an essential driver of these cascades. We all need hope to thrive in our lives, and in today's world, we need hope, imagination, and courage more than ever. But in the face of multiplying global threats, the ideas of hope that most people depend upon today are increasingly false, naïve, or passive. Some people put their faith in technological breakthroughs, others in authoritarian leadership, and still others in the idea that things usually turn out fine. But these are hopes that will harm not help us at this point.
Drawing on complexity science, on research in physics, philosophy, and psychology, on The Lord of the Rings books and Mad Max films, and on individual stories of how others in the past have prevailed over equally dangerous challenges, I illustrate how we can combine the three elements of "commanding hope"—honest, astute, powerful—to make ourselves active protagonists in seeing and achieving a humane future for all.
I then describe two practical tools we can use to understand our own and others' worldviews better, which will help us be strategically smart in our actions, together, to take the world to a healthier, more just place.
And finally, in powerful opposition to the violent, inhumane "Mad Max" worldview that's otherwise likely to become widely held in coming decades, I describe an alternative "Renew the Future" perspective—one anchored in clear principles of opportunity, safety, justice, and a common feeling of "we-ness"—that can give us all the agency we need to win the battle for tomorrow.

Památná Husova lípa (lípa velkolistá – Tilia platyphyllos) roste u polní cesty vedoucí z Dohaliček do Horních Dohalic asi 10 km severozápadně od okresního města Hradec Králové.

Památná lípa má obvod kmene 315 cm, výšku asi 20 m a stáří přes 100 let (rok zasazení 1915). Chráněna jako památný strom je od roku 1998 pro svůj vzrůst a jako krajinná dominanta.

Z historie Husovy lípy (z obecní cedule)

O zasazení lípy se v roce 1915 zasloužil místní učitel Richard Petráň. Mimo jiné i proto se místu zasazení se říká "Kantorův plácek". V kronice dohalského sokola je zaznamenáno:

- r. 1914: "Jelikož se blížil Husův rok, byl v obci založen přípravný výbor pro postavení Husova pomníku."

- r. 1915: "Oslava Husova se potom přece konala, ovšem zcela tiše, bez hudby. Na kopci byla zapálena hranice, mezi lid bylo rozdáno 100 brožur a na památku byly vsazeny uprostřed vsi lípy, 11 počtem, a v poli, na tzv. Kantorově plácku, zasazena byla 1 lípa tzv. Husova lípa."

Q: reading from a file is slow in android i have implement a small code of reading from a file with scanner and save the values on an array.   am reading 3-6 files the same time and save the numbers in 3-6 arrays. the files are saved on the sdcard of my phone. my problem is that is slow reading all thoses and it took a long time until it finish. how i can re-write the code in order to be more efficient, or the files should be saved on the poject and when i install the application on the device to install the files and access them from there
the code that am usgin is the below:
try {

 File I= new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString()+"/ECG/test/I.txt");
 scannerI = new Scanner(I);
 scannerI.useDelimiter(";");
 for(int sampleIdx = 0; scannerI.hasNext();){
 timiI[sampleIdx] = scannerI.nextDouble();
 sampleIdx++;

 if(sampleIdx == SAMPLE_SIZE && !Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()){
 //do something
 sampleIdx = 0;
                    }
                }
           }
}

as i mention and before am using more than 1 files, and the according arrays

A: Scanner is slow in Android in my experience.
I improved my application responsiveness by

*

*Moving the parsing code into an AsyncTask (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html) and running the file reading in a background thread.

*Using LineNumberReader and String.split(";") instead of Scanner.

The 2nd hint sped things up in my app by about 10x, but was still too slow to avoid an ANR, hence the background task.

Utah doctor to head medical services for 2002 Games
SHARE Utah doctor to head medical services for 2002 Games
Dr. J. Charles Rich, director of the LDS Hospital division of neurological surgery, will be chief medical officer for the 2002 Winter Olympics.
A committee that includes representatives of SLOC and Intermountain Health Care chose Rich, 61, after a nationwide search. IHC was involved because it has the contract to provide medical services for the Games. The selection was approved by the International Olympic Committee."We were delighted with the caliber of applicants for this position, and the commitment that many physicians were willing to make to ensure SLOC's medical services function will be a success," said Verena Rasmussen, director of Games services for SLOC. "The position is initially an unpaid, part-time, voluntary post, and it will become a full-time position approximately six months before the Games."
Rich will be responsible for making sure that preparations for medical services meet deadlines and don't go over budget. He also will be the primary liaison between SLOC and the IOC Medical Commission.
The IOC Medical Commission wants to make sure that athletes don't take performance-enhancing drugs during the Games. Rich will work closely with the laboratory chosen to conduct drug testing.
Dr. Kent Richards, senior vice president of IHC, said the organization is pleased at Rich's selection. "We are confident he will do an excellent job," he said.

<title>Berkeley DB Reference Guide: Flat-text backing files</title>

Berkeley DB Reference Guide:
Access Methods

Flat-text backing files

It is possible to back any Recno database (either fixed or variable
length) with a flat-text source file.  This provides fast read (and
potentially write) access to databases that are normally created and
stored as flat-text files.  The backing source file may be specified by
calling the DB->set_re_source method.

The backing source file will be read to initialize the database.  In the
case of variable length records, the records are assumed to be separated
as described for the DB->set_re_delim method.  For example, standard
UNIX byte stream files can be interpreted as a sequence of variable
length records separated by ASCII newline characters.  This is the
default.

When cached data would normally be written back to the underlying
database file (for example, when the DB->close or
DB->sync methods are called), the in-memory copy of the database will
be written back to the backing source file.

The backing source file must already exist (but may be zero-length) when
DB->open is called.  By default, the backing source file is read
lazily, that is, records are not read from the backing source file until
they are requested by the application. If multiple processes (not
threads) are accessing a Recno database concurrently and either
inserting or deleting records, the backing source file must be read in
its entirety before more than a single process accesses the database,
and only that process should specify the backing source file as part of
the DB->open call.  This can be accomplished by calling the
DB->set_flags method with the DB_SNAPSHOT flag.

Reading and writing the backing source file cannot be transactionally
protected because it involves filesystem operations that are not part of
the Berkeley DB transaction methodology. For this reason, if a temporary
database is used to hold the records (a NULL was specified as the file
argument to DB->open), it is possible to lose the
contents of the backing source file if the system crashes at the right
instant. If a permanent file is used to hold the database (a filename
was specified as the file argument to DB->open), normal database
recovery on that file can be used to prevent information loss.  It is
still possible that the contents of the backing source file itself will
be corrupted or lost if the system crashes.

For all of the above reasons, the backing source file is generally used
to specify databases that are read-only for Berkeley DB applications, and that
are either generated on the fly by software tools, or modified using a
different mechanism such as a text editor.

Stanton in January 2006
Harry Dean Stanton (July 14, 1926 – September 15, 2017)[1] was an American actor, musician, and singer. He was known for his roles in Paris, Texas, Kelly's Heroes, Dillinger, Straight Time, Alien, Repo Man, Pretty in Pink, The Last Temptation of Christ, Wild at Heart, The Green Mile, The Pledge, Rango and Lucky.
Stanton was a favorite of the late movie critic Roger Ebert who has said that "no movie featuring either Harry Dean Stanton or M. Emmet Walsh in a supporting role can be altogether bad." However, Ebert later admitted that Dream a Little Dream (1989), in which Stanton appeared, was a "clear violation" of this rule.[2]
For his role in Lucky, Stanton was posthumously awarded the Satellite Award in 2018 alongside Gary Oldman.
Stanton was born on July 14, 1926 in West Irvine, Kentucky.[3][4] He studied at the University of Kentucky.
Stanton died on the afternoon of September 15, 2017 at a hospital in Los Angeles, California of respiratory failure at the age of 91.[5]

3 release levers each lift the clutch pressure plates in the centre of the clutch housing against the force of the clutch pressure springs. Lifting the clutch pressure plates disconnects the force low between the gearbox and the engine.
The thin-walled plain bearings with small dimensions are optimal for the compact design of the clutch. The high stress levels from the force of the clutch pressure springs are no problem for the plain bearings. KS PERMAGLIDE® plain bearings are resistant to clutch disc abrasion and can withstand the maximum application temperatures of 180 °C, despite the high levels of stress.

In damp environments in particular, this sliding layer system provides outstanding protection against corrosion. Moreover, lead and PTFE have an extremely low absorption tendency. Absorption of the surrounding luids, swelling of the materials and chemical damage to interacting sliding partners are eiciently prevented. The result is dimensional stability and optimal guide accuracy during use.

So here we are talking and then I got that niggling feeling that I had there on the back burner... you know the one. That really scary thing that you are dreading, like a BIG test that you aren't prepared for, you knew what would happen but you still pushed it back until suddenly it is upon you and it becomes very real.
OMG Ninja won't be there. I haven't done anything without him since HBear was 6 months old, when I went to my parents for 3 weeks (before we moved here).
"Yes you can." He must have Ninjaed it off my face because he said it before I even said anything lol.
No I'm not talking about my sister or my Winnipeg Besty or my aunts, uncles or cousins or my brother-in-law nope none of them.
I was talking about my kids.
I remembered The Bulk Barn the other day where I said No to HBear about getting a ridiculous sucker.
As she stuffed it, big wrapper and all into her mouth I heard her say "Mow ew haf t buh it".
As I yanked it out of her mouth I said to the cashier and I would like to buy this too. But it is going DIRECTLY into the garbage. Little girls that pull stunts like that do NOT get treats.
She gave the the air a quick sharp side elbow.
Oh and SBean is screaming bloody murder the whole time because it is like Charlie's Freaking Factory for a toddler in there! It is like the ultimate snack heaven! She screamed More More More More More for the first 5 minutes there until she began thrashing around in the strapped shopping card seat like a fish that was flopping on the dock to try to get back to the water.
I mean I love my kids to death but, they can be horrible.
Of course at this point SBean was tired of being strapped into a cart and yelling Done Done Done Done Done. She screams it at all different intervals just in case you didn't hear her.
Oh My Gawd! What the Eff am I doing?
Maybe I should cut the shopping trips a few minutes shorter. It seems to be act up time at the check out... hmmmm.
2. They run around restaurants.
As I was punching in my pin for my debit card I heard loud noises coming simultaneously from both the girls.
HBear had broken a mannequin's arm and hand and it clattered loudly to the floor at the same time that SBean threw her aluminum waterbottle at the cashier's head! The kid has GREAT aim.
Anyways, I have started packing. Jebus this is cray cray.
I think I have filled the girls activity bags with awesome things to help with the 8 hour drive. They have made the trip many times but I am always there to hand them whatever they want... this time I will be concentrating on driving through the mountains for my 1st time.
A Buttons Bear or something? I got it at the science store. SBean LOVES buckles and snaps and zippers, so I hoping for hours of entertainment out of it... BAHAHAHAHA!
A pencil case for her pencils and erasers... to color!
and the thing she is MOST excited for... her Summer Vacation Journal.
We picked out a binder at the Dollar Store and I printed out various pages from some seriously great sites!
I stapled manila half envelopes on cardstock so she has a place for mementos, like tickets or stubs.
I put lots of colored paper at the back so she can draw her adventures too.
I got this awesome bag to put all her accessories in.
We got stickers, glitter glue, markers, pencil crayons, a sharpener, scissors, glue dots, and a glue stick.
I have so many paint swatches from all this painting we have been doing :) that I decided to use them to keep my sanity. With all that writing HBear is going to ask me,"Mommy how do you spell summer again? How do you spell mountain? How do you spell..." for at least 5 hours.
I also went to BCAA and got free maps. I then took said map to Staples to get laminated.
The silly lady there handed me scissors and said "it has to be smaller than 11X7."
How's that for customer service?!?! PLUS I had SBean draped over my hip as she was freaking out... I WAS at a checkout LOL.
No more "Are we almost there?" whines... she can now follow along like the Movie Follow That Bird!
My sister just texted me telling me that she hopes that I am not stressed about the drive lol.
Next stop, Shoppers Drug Mart to buy lottery tickets! Of course we gave a ticket to the lady we bought them from.
Next to the dollar store for a big yellow balloon and we dropped off a lottery ticket for them too.
HBear wanted to hand out flowers at the library so we went to the library and gave out flowers to all of the employees there.
Then we went to Haven Hill. It is the retirement home that my Nana lived and died in. We handed out flowers on her pod, to the house keepers and the nurses and all of the amazing women that looked after her and loved her.
It was kind of sad going up there again, I haven't been up there in over year. Some of the people are still there some of them aren't. My Nana's Besty, Bertha is still there but unfortunately Dorothy and Evelyn and some of the ladies that I've talked to for years are no longer with us.
Our next stop was Walmart as we drove over a yellow butterfly followed us.
and then SBean began singing "Hi Nana Hi Nana Hi Nana Hi Nana Hi Nana Hi Nana" it was very cute.
When we got to the cash register we explained our mission for the day and gave her a lottery ticket. Pass it on from Kathy.
We still had flowers left so off to the bank and City Hall. I figured that the bank tellers and City Hall receptionist probably get yelled at quite a bit so they deserve some kindness today.
Well it was noon so I figured it was time for lunch and SBean's NAP!
and I pretty much lost it and for the next 20 minutes sat in the middle of my kitchen floor and bawled.
After, I got it together and I cleaned the bathrooms. My Mom would get a kick out of that lol.
And then we went and found Ninja and the crew and gave them Popsicles too :) Pass it on from Kathy!
We had steak and mushrooms and Caesar salad and garlic toast for dinner. I had a nice chat with my sister, Dad, Uncle and Aunt who had just done their balloon launch in Cochrane and then we were off to visit my mom.
And then we went to my mom's and talked with her bit and gave her some more flowers.
but right when we were about to do it the wind picked up and we let go and it flew directly up into a big tree and popped!!!!!!
Seriously? HBear cried for the next 15 minutes straight.
I had to chuckle almost pee myself laughing, Mom would've thought it was freaking hilarious!
I'm exhausted. Emotionally and mentally I feel drained.
Time for bed... tomorrow starts day one of year two.
L-O-V-E Mommies, you will never be forgotten.

The Secret Santa Project: Version 8.0 thenewsecretsantAdmin

As decorative gourds are relegated to boxes in the attic, Jack-o-lanterns are tossed to the side of the curb, and pumpkin spice flavoured, well, everything, is phased out in favor of peppermint and gingerbread, we are looking to the next holiday. Walk down Saint Catherine's and you're already in a winter wonderland – mannequins frolic amongst over-sized ornaments in window displays, coffee and tea shops layout their seasonal gift boxes, and Christmas music plays throughout all major department stores. The holidays aren't right around the corner, they're here.
At LinkNow Media, we too are hopping on the Christmas bandwagon – but not in any commercial sense. Every holiday season, we team up with Batshaw Youth and Family Centres, a non-profit organization in Montreal that helps children who are victims of abuse, neglect, and abandonment. While many of these children have found loving foster parents, there are many more who still need help, especially around the holidays. That's why instead of doing the traditional secret Santa gift exchange at our office, we make sure these kids have something to open on Christmas day.
The Batshaw Youth and Family Centres asks their kids to write letters to Santa, telling him what they want for Christmas. These letters are then handed over to us, and we go out and do our best to make their wishes come true. We've decided to call this project The New Secret Santa.
The reasoning behind the name is simple! To a kid, Santa Clause represents everything that is good – he is a North American ambassador, an emblem and powerful representative of love and kindness. We thought it was suiting to call this fundraiser The New Secret Santa, because everyone has that love and kindness within their heart. Santa is not a figment of our imagination or a creation, he lives inside all of us!
Become Part of The New Secret Santa Project
Last year, we donated more than 250 gifts and raised more than $10,000. While these numbers are nothing to sneeze at, there were still many children who received nothing on Christmas day.
This year, we're looking to raise $25,000. This figure ensures that every single child in the system has a present under the tree. We're not going to be able to do this on our own, which is why we are asking for your help.
Members of our staff have volunteered to help raise awareness about this worthy cause. If you want to help The New Secret Santa Project gain momentum, you can head to this website. There, you will find more information about the Batshaw Youth and Family Centres, the cause, and our goal. Every dollar goes towards a child in need.
Help Us Reach Our Goal
Please help spread the word about The New Secret Santa Project by sharing this post on your social media pages or with your staff. Feel free to contact LinkNow Media directly with any questions.
We'll be posting every week on here to keep you up-to-date on the progress we've made! Join us in playing Santa this year, and spread the love during this season of giving!

Aging workforce continues to plague area employers
The monthly data shows employment rates held steady at 33,000 jobs in November since falling from a high of 41,500 jobs in November 2020

Sault Ste. Marie's employment rate is moving back to more normal levels, but the number of people who have left the workforce are still a major concern.
The Algoma Workforce Investment Corporation says Sault Ste. Marie's unemployment rate in November 2021 was 5.2 per cent, lower than Canada's 6 per cent and Ontario's 6.4 per cent.
Aging workforce continues to plague area employers Back to video
This represents a decrease from a recent high of 9.3 per cent in September and significantly lower than a high of 11.1 per cent in July 2020.
Prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, the unemployment rate was 5.1 per cent and then began to climb significantly.
The monthly data shows employment rates held steady at 33,000 jobs in November since falling from a high of 41,500 jobs in November 2020. The average level of employment over the past 20 years is 36,700.
"We're moving in the right direction with our unemployment numbers but the other issue with our labour force and aging population is still an issue," said Jonathan Coulman, executive director of AWIC.
Employers are still struggling to find employees and this problem with the labour market will only continue as the population continues to age and more people retire.
Coulman said it appears more people chose to leave the workforce during the pandemic, leaving more jobs to fill than what was earlier anticipated.
But young people continue to have difficulties finding those first or part-time jobs.
"We're in the same range as provincial and national statistics but its still a bit of mismatch with expectations and they jobs that are available out there," he said.
The unemployment rate for those between the ages of 15-24 years of age is 10.7 per cent, which indicates younger workers have challenges entering the workforce.
Coulman said he can't say why that is.
"It may be that with more pressure on wages and an increase wage for entry level jobs, employers are spreading a wider net," he said.
The unemployment rate for those between the ages of 25-54 years old is 5.4 per cent.
However, those over the age of 55 have an unemployment rate of 3.1 per cent, which Coulman said is significantly lower than recent months and is an indication of an even tighter labour market for older workers.
The concerning trend is still that Sault Ste. Marie's Participation and Employment rates continue to be lower than provincial and national rates.
That's an indication that Sault Ste. Marie has a relatively older population and more people are moving out of the workforce, or retiring.
"Comparing the rates by age group shows that the Participation and Employment rates for the core working aged population (25 to 54) are more in line with provincial and national rates," he said.
The data is not readily available to show how many people in Sault Ste. Marie – or others – are working remotely, a new phenomenon that began with the pandemic.
Coulman said the employment data is captured with random phone surveys and questions only ask whether a person is working or not, not whether they are working remotely, for for a company in or out of town.
"Numbers with these surveys tend to lag with things like that," he said.
A higher number of available job postings should mean that the employment and participation rates will be on the upswing in the coming months.
"If they don't, we will continue to have a tight labour market in which some employers will have challenges filling open positions," he said.
That statistics indicate that overall, employment rose slightly to 33,000 jobs in October. The goods-producing sector saw an increase driven by an increase in the manufacturing sector. Employment in services and producing industries held steady while gains in education were countered by a continued drop in health care and retail employment.
Job postings in November are almost double what they were the previous November, with increases in retail postings, cooks, food counter and kitchen helpers and consistent posting for healthcare related jobs.
Sault Ste. Marie's Labour Force Survey results are based on 3-month rolling average which means the unemployment rate is an average of the previous 3 months' rates. This can delay the real time changes to the rates appearing in the monthly rates.


This week's Chukat, opens with the laws of the פָּרָה אֲדֻמָּה, Parah Adumah, the Red Heifer that was used in ancient times to cleanse the people from impurity. portion, however, also contains a host of other themes, including Miriam's death and the subsequent lack of water, the punishment of Moses and Aaron for hitting the rock, the death of Aaron, the battle with Amalek, the people's complaint and the attack of the fiery serpents.
After the deaths of Miriam and Aaron and the loss of those great leaders, the people needed to prepare for the future. Life for them would be very different after their leader Moses will no longer be with them. Until now, the people of Israel have been living a supernatural lifestyle, wandering through the wilderness on Divine clouds. According to the Midrash, these clouds leveled out the terrain so the people would not have to endure the challenging mountains or valleys. Their clothes were washed by the clouds and their garments grew along with their bodies. Water suddenly appeared in the wilderness when Moses spoke to the rock.
Now Miriam and Aaron were gone. Moses was soon to pass away as well. The people of Israel could not continue to live in this supernatural manner for much longer. They need to prepare for a more normal life that they would experience after the death of Moses, who passed away immediately prior to their entry into the land of Canaan.
When the Canaanite kings heard of the deaths of Miriam and Aaron, they regarded the people of Israel as extremely vulnerable and, one by one, began to attack. The first Canaanite king to attack is identified in the Torah (Numbers 21:1), as the king of Arad. Rashi citing the Midrash, maintains that the attackers were actually Amalekites, who had disguised themselves as local Canaanites (from Arad) in order to confuse the people of Israel. This tactic would hopefully render the Israelites' prayers for salvation ineffectual because they were intended to defeat the Canaanites and not the Amalekites. According to the Midrash, the king of Arad and his troops (the disguised Amalekites), captured one Canaanite slave girl, leading the Israelites to do battle with them, in order to redeem the unfortunate captive. The deception did not help, and when the people of Israel took an oath to God, the Al-mighty delivered the king of Arad and his people into their hands.

THE NEW ENLIGHTENMENT
Ann Coulter, a "Perfected Christian"
Ann Coulter's remark that Christians want Jews to be "perfected" proves she knows nothing about Christianity. Maybe she didn't mean it the way it sounded, but I have done enough research on Coulter to know she prefers a "cream-colored" ethnically cleansed population of "non-swarthy" types. Her comment that Jews need to be perfected is the kind of talk that sparked the Holocaust.

Read the amazing new book "THE CONSERVATIVES HAVE NO CLOTHES: Why Right-Wing Ideas Keep Failing" by Greg Anrig, Vice President of Programs at the Century Foundation. We just interviewed him and you can listen in the archives at: Basham and Cornell Progressive Talk Radio The Basham and Cornell Show broadcasts weekday mornings at 8 a.m. Pacific (11 a.m. Eastern) on AM 1230 KLAV in Las Vegas.
Three items to discuss:
1. Blackwater down: Is Blackwater prolonging the war in Iraq? Iraqis want them out of Iraq. Erik Prince's Blackwater Mercenery Army was paid over $300 million of our taxpayer dollars
2. Wiretapping set in place PRIOR to 9/11
3. Ann Coulter's remarks and her enablers in the media.
Blackwater is hurting our troops. From ThinkProgress.org: "Given the choice, the right-wingnuts always choose Blackwater over our own troops. They're not on the same side, and haven't been ever... The whole "screw them" thing four years ago was exactly that -- the wingers were more outraged over four Blackwater mercenaries killed than they were about the five Marines that had died that very same day... I was pissed that the sacrifice of those Marines merited less attention that those of a private, profit-motivated, unaccountable militia.
It's always been clear where the US military has stood in regards to the mercenaries. Soldiers complain about them:
"They act like they're God's gift to combat operations" complained one soldier to me, "Swanning around with weapons and equipment every bit as powerful as anything in our armoury, but without any of the legal framework that we have to work within. They're rude, aggressive and to be honest, their attitudes piss us guys off so I dread to think how the Iraqis view them".
The top brass have been complaining about their ill effect for years:
In the post-9/11 world, demand for the commandos is not only soaring within the military. Private firms and government organizations - including the CIA - are luring away troops with bigger salaries. "It is a very lucrative opportunity right now for special operations folks to get out and take very high-paying jobs" with private security firms, says General Brown. A 20-year veteran leaving Special Operations receives about $23,000 in retirement pay, but can earn $100,000 to $200,000 in private industry, military officials say.
With no end to the demand in sight, the military must carefully allocate SOF while increasing their ranks. To fill the current gap, it is accepting added risks with less experienced forces.
Blackwater in Iraq: Killing for Profit By Saul Landau
The words "Support Our Troops" stain the rear bumpers of thousands of cars. The slogan, however, conceals a more pernicious demand: "Support Our Mercenaries." Yes, in Iraq, the mercenaries--euphemistically called "paid contractors"--outnumber US troops, 180,000 to 160,000. These contractors do more than provide armed security for US personnel. They do chores that previously belonged to regular army staff.
Private security companies employ for high pay former US soldiers, ex-kidnappers and torturers from Pinochet's secret police, death squad heavies from a variety of Central and South American countries and a few leftover South African apartheid thugs as well. The companies collect billions from US taxpayers. A typical U.S. soldier serving in Iraq makes about: $57 a day. The estimated daily take for a Blackwater security guard there runs between $500- $600. (FACING SOUTH A News and Politics Report Sept. 26, 2007)
From Lydia: There was a time when I was a Republican, but that was before I got sober. It was when I was in my ego stage: very self-centered and full of myself. And in fear of losing what I had or not getting what I wanted. As we shed our ego, we become more compassionate toward others, more concerned about social justice and saving our earth and helping other flawed humans — not judging them, but helping them.
I am reprinting this letter from Dennis Taylor of Phoenix, Arizona. I think this man is very intuitive — which we are all capable of being when we open our minds.
"Dear Lydia, I have to share something that my wife said after reading your blog. Without sounding flakey…I'm convinced that my wife is correct and that this goes hand in hand with your statement regarding the next frontier being the center or the middle. We both have a strong internal sense of something impending that is difficult to explain. A feeling that many of us are going to be called to stand out for what is right and rescue the Constitution of the USA so that the country can get back to being a democracy. It seems like while America slept, we were slowly and silently robbed of Democracy. The irony is the fact that so many people who call themselves Christian as well as conservative played a big role in America silently surrendering Democracy to those who regard the constitution as a mere technicality to work around in order to promote their self-serving agendas.
Respectfully, Dennis Taylor
Tribal divisions and ethnic chauvinism seem so primitive. We can't survive without each other. It's also pretty clear that storing up material treasures on earth is useless. We are learning not to depend on material sustenance, but to depend on charity. Love for our fellow man -- there is nothing else worth talking about. And that is why the Gate is narrow: it's hard to love your enemies -- and I'm not just talking about terrorists. It's hard to love people you can't stand to be in the same room with. With my relatives this weekend, I kept asking myself: "How can I be of love and service to people who are incredibly annoying?" Very few will make it through this gate of loving their enemies, not fighting, and embracing those morally bankrupt people who disgust, offend and threaten them. But that's what we are called to do, and that's why the Way is narrow.
I want to start focusing on all the good we can do. Look at this incredible universe – it would take a blind slug not to see God everywhere. This is heaven and it is here now, if we choose to see it. I was at a peacock farm with my kids, chasing peacocks all over the place -- and in the design of a peacock's feathers, you see God's artistry. In the calligraphy of a Monarch butterfly you see perfection. And in a baby's face, you see heaven. Why do people debate whether or not God exists when God is simply love? Who can argue with love, kindness, compassion? Asking to prove the existence of God is like asking to prove you love your kids. I actually believe that Einstein was on the cusp of proving God through science, for he said that 'goodness, truth and beauty are laws of the universe'; hence God and science are not mutually exclusive.
I also love Wayne Dyer's statement that "you'll see it when you BELIEVE it" and "the antidote to depression is kindness". One act of kindness to another human being is an anti-depressant; it actually raises your Serotonin levels. An observer of an act of kindness also gets a Serotonin boost. If everyone in America was engaged in volunteering, in "love and service" work, we wouldn't be thinking about ourselves or what we lack -- and we wouldn't be depressed. Depression is an epidemic in this country and the pharmaceutical companies love promoting our fears & obsessions. Getting out of our self-centered fear by helping others works every time.
My brilliant friend Chaz and I were discussing how the world has changed and how odd it is that something we thought was a given, makes so much sense to us, but make so little sense to right-wingers, and he said that if we weren't saying the truth, it wouldn't upset so many people. Kind of like the film "Good Night and Good Luck" about Edward R. Murrow's battle with McCarthy. He also said that "a frog never jumps out of a pan if you turn the heat up slowly." Which is what the people in power are doing to middle-class Americans: turning the heat up and taking away our earnings, choices and freedoms in such gradual degrees that we barely notice until it's too late.
Another letter from a fan: "I am convinced that if Jesus Christ almighty were to come pay us a visit incarnate today, he would have one thing to say to many of the religious right-wing and republican party as well as a result of the mess they have made. He would call them a 'brood of vipers,' which is what he called the Pharisees of his time. These very same people who did everything in their power to rake Bill Clinton over the coals for an indiscretion with a Whitehouse Intern seem to have absolutely no problem with telling lies, half truths and hiding Bush's sins and crimes. It's a sad but true statement when ya consider the fact that Nixon got impeached for things far less offensive then the crimes that Bush is flat out guilty of both locally and internationally..."
"I'm concerned about the future of this country as a result of the dangerous trend of growing lies and deception that the Bush administration and vicious mouthpieces like Ann Coulter and Bill O' Reilly. Over the course of the last five years, people like this have effectively redefined the word "liberal" to mean a lot of things that it simply is not and never was. Liberal is actually a very positive and progressive term when examined under the light of honesty. However, in the hands of corrupt people like Bush, O' Reilly and Coulter, it has been used to mislead the American public. Regretfully, they have used the stupidity of most Americans to believe that liberal is something bad, immoral, baby murdering and anti-Christian."

Bloomberg reports here. Excerpt:
They've got high hopes.
Bruce Perlowin, the chief executive officer of Hemp Inc. (HEMP) who has seen his stock soar 205 percent to 8 cents in the last three days, says investors are suddenly bidding up marijuana companies because they want to find "the next Microsoft." Robert Frichtel, his Advanced Cannabis Solutions Inc. up 144 percent after posting $455 in sales last quarter, said "euphoria" is driving gains that in some cases top 1,700 percent.
"The demand for marijuana is insatiable," said Perlowin, a once-jailed smuggler who filed last month to sell 12 million shares of the Las Vegas-based company even as its market value holds 99.97 percent below the world's biggest software maker. "You have a feeding frenzy for the birth of a new industry."

Fire debris is collected at a fire scene as evidence and analyzed by the laboratory to determine if an ignitable liquid residue is present. This information aides the fire investigator in determining the cause of the fire. At the laboratory, any ignitable liquid residues are extracted from the fire debris prior to analysis. Analysis is performed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry which detects and identifies the volatile components extracted from the fire debris. Combustion and pyrolysis products from the degradation of substrate materials such as flooring, furnishings, and construction materials interfere the in the process of determining whether an ignitable liquid residue is present in the fire debris. Other challenges are the evaporation (weathering) and consumption by bacteria of the ignitable liquid residue.
1.NCFS developed and continues to maintain and improve an online database of GC-MS data for commercially available ignitable liquids commonly found in fire debris called the Ignitable Liquids Reference Collection and Database .
2.NCFS developed and continues to maintain and improve an online database of GC-MS data for commercially available substrate materials commonly found in fire debris called the Substrate Database.
3.The determination of leak rates for various fire debris evidence collection containers.
4.A study on the adsorption process during passive headspace extraction of ignitable liquid residues using activated charcoal.
5.Development of software that compares a fire debris sample to reference ignitable liquids and substrate materials.
6.Studies on the use of statistical data analysis methods for the classification of an ignitable liquid residues such as a combined method of target factor analysis with a Bayesian classifier, linear discriminant analysis, quadratic discriminant analysis, soft independent modeling of class analogy (SIMCA), self-organizing feature maps (SOFM).
7.Investigating whether ignitable liquids group together according to the classification scheme outline by ASTM E1618 by using hierarchical cluster analysis.
8.Investigating the ability to determine the likelihood of an ignitable liquid residue being present in the fire debris.
9. Development of the International Database of Ignitable Liquids.
