TORONTO - It was a game that Ryerson will like to put behind them, falling 7-1 to the University of Toronto Varsity Blues.
It didn't seem like that would be the case in the early stages of the game. Ryerson took an early 1-0 lead when Camryn Tait got a centering pass and wired one past the Varsity Blues goalie.
Coming into the game the Varsity Blues had shown that the first period was a weak spot in their game. The early Ryerson goal made it appear as though the trend would continue but that was not the case.
Toronto would come back just before the halfway mark of the period and tie the game up. The game wouldn't be tied for too long and the Varsity Blues took a 2-1 lead into the second period.
The second period is where Toronto created their separation. The first nine minutes were back and forth action with neither team scoring. But then Toronto added two goals in the span of 59 seconds and their lead became comfortable.
Ryerson took their timeout with the hopes of changing the momentum but that wasn't the case. Just a few minutes later the Varsity Blues added to their lead once again, extending the lead to 5-1.
The fifth goal would spell the end of the game for Natalie Thompson and make it back to back games that a Ryerson goalie has been pulled.
Toronto added their final two goals in the third period. Ryerson also saw the puck find the back of the net in the third, however, the referee had lost sight of the puck and blown the play dead before it crossed the line.
As the game went on frustration grew for Ryerson. They will need to shake off that frustration and bounce back fast. The Brock Badgers are next on their schedule on Saturday, Nov. 3 at the Mattamy Athletic Centre.

Q: Facebook Graph API Message - Word or Character Limit I have used PHP, json and API Cache to successfully show a Facebook Feed Message on a website. However some of the messages are too long to fit into the space provided on the website.
Does anyone know if there is a way to limit the amount of Words or Characters the message will display?
Best scenario would to have the message show fully if below limit and then show certain amount of words or characters i over followed by [...] read full post @pagename
Then I can add the link to the Facebook post to view full message. I know how to add the post link and text, just need to scale the message down.
Here is the PHP code I am using:
<?php $fb_message = $fb_json->data[0]->message; ?>
<?php echo $fb_message; ?>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

Thanks to James Pearce I was able to get it working using the following code:
<?php $fb_message = $fb_json->data[0]->message; $truncated = substr($fb_message, 0, strrpos(substr($fb_message, 0, 100), ' ')); echo $truncated . '...'; ?>

It works if the message is more than 100 characters, but if it is less it will only show the first word and no more....?
Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

A: There is no way to get the Facebook API to truncate the string for you. However, there are lots of ways you can do this in PHP.
One simple way is using the wordwrap function (http://www.php.net/wordwrap) and taking everything before the first line break.
See also How to Truncate a string in PHP to the word closest to a certain number of characters?
This seems work fine:
<?php
    $fb_message = $fb_json->data[0]->message;
    echo array_shift(explode("\n", wordwrap($fb_message, 100)));
?>

A: Here is the code I used to check how long the Facebook "message" field is and then to either truncate it, if it is longer than 100 characters, or display the whole thing if it is short enough:
$post->message = $fbdata->data[0]->message;
$messageLength = strlen($post->message);
if ($messageLength < 100) {
     $outputMessage = $post->message;
} else {
     $outputMessage = substr($post->message, 0, strrpos(substr($post->message, 0, 100), ' ')) . ' ...';
}
echo $outputMessage;

Q: expand each unique combination with vector of dates I have a data frame with unique combinations:
df <- data.frame(
    d = c("d1", "d2")
    , t = c("t1", "t2")
)

and a vector of dates:
dates <- seq(as.Date("2016/5/1"), as.Date("2016/7/1"), "months")

I would like to expand each row of the unique combinations to get this:
df1 <- expand.grid(d = c("d1"), t = c("t1"), date = dates)
df2 <- expand.grid(d = c("d2"), t = c("t2"), date = dates)
want <- rbind(df1, df2)

want data:
   d  t       date
1 d1 t1 2016-05-01
2 d1 t1 2016-06-01
3 d1 t1 2016-07-01
4 d2 t2 2016-05-01
5 d2 t2 2016-06-01
6 d2 t2 2016-07-01

Obviously this code works but I have many more unique combinations. I could use a loop but something similar to expand.grid, which does not work in this case, would be preferred:
combinations <- expand.grid(df, date = dates)

Is there an easy way to get "want" without resorting to a loop? Thanks.

A: You can use tidyr::expand_grid():
library(tidyr)
expand_grid(df, dates)

# A tibble: 6 x 3
  d     t     dates
  <fct> <fct> <date>
1 d1    t1    2016-05-01
2 d1    t1    2016-06-01
3 d1    t1    2016-07-01
4 d2    t2    2016-05-01
5 d2    t2    2016-06-01
6 d2    t2    2016-07-01

A: I might have misunderstood your intention but in your example, merge does the job:
merge(df, dates)
   d  t          y
1 d1 t1 2016-05-01
2 d2 t2 2016-05-01
3 d1 t1 2016-06-01
4 d2 t2 2016-06-01
5 d1 t1 2016-07-01
6 d2 t2 2016-07-01

From the doc:

If by or both by.x and by.y are of length 0 (a length zero vector or NULL), the result, r, is the Cartesian product of x and y, i.e., dim(r) = c(nrow(x)*nrow(y), ncol(x) + ncol(y)).

Rows are not ordered (you can do it in a second step) but the result is the same.

A: We can use crossing from tidyr
tidyr::crossing(df, dates)

# A tibble: 6 x 3
#   d     t     dates
#  <fct> <fct> <date>
#1 d1    t1    2016-05-01
#2 d1    t1    2016-06-01
#3 d1    t1    2016-07-01
#4 d2    t2    2016-05-01
#5 d2    t2    2016-06-01
#6 d2    t2    2016-07-01

JOG offers close competitive racing with fantastic company both on and off the water. A large majority of the races end with a social event organised at the race destination to allow racers the chance to unwind and discuss their race stories.

JOG fleets and racing also exist in countries such as Australia, usually centered in the capital cities. Some State yachting authorities there have separate JOG sub-committees to organise events across a number of participating Clubs.

The JOG was founded 7 December 1950 at the Royal Ocean Racing Club. Its first President was the yacht designer John Illingworth.

DVD vs. Blu-ray sell-through revenue growth curves.
Launches aligned. Year 1 is 1997 for DVD and 2006 for Blu-ray. Year 7 is 2003 for DVD and 2012 for Blu-ray.
Notice that in the first 4 years the growth curves are fairly similar, but then diverge greatly after that.
Also note DVD's peak occurs in 3 more years, with $4.5 billion more in growth, while that of Blu-ray is already starting to flatten out.
The year 7 growth for BLu-ray is to the end of this year and is projected to be at 9.1% growth over last year. So it may change slightly depending on how well/poorly Blu-ray does over the last 11 weeks (under flat YoY box office power conditions).

We'll be the first to admit, masking is usually a hallmark of someone who's pretty into caring for their skin. But throwing on a mask—crazy as you might look/feel while you're wearing it—is the easiest way to achieve a big difference in the state of your skin in mere minutes. Whether you have oily skin, acne issues, or areas of redness, there are face masks for men out there that are way easier to use than you might think.
If you don't know where to begin, you've come to the right place. For starters, masks go on after you wash your face. Depending on the mask, you either wash off or leave on, and then slap on some moisturizer. We've rounded up our five favorite face masks for men that address the most common skin issues to help get you started.
In layman's terms, this mask will clear all the nasty stuff out of your skin real quick. It gets deep down into your pores, removing dirt buildup and blackheads, giving you an extra clean feeling. We love the way our skin feels after each use — refined, smooth and super clear. After ten minutes with the mask on, rinse off using a washcloth. Use one or two times per week.
This mask wins the category of coolest face masks for men. For starters, this mask applies as a metallic silver liquid that hardens as it dries. To remove, peel the silver layer off your skin — no water required. We recommend applying a thick, smooth layer over your face and peeling off after 20 to 30 minutes, starting at the outer edges when removing. Aside from how cool this mask looks (Tin Man status), it's actually super powerful, using colloidal platinum as a main ingredient. Pretty cool, right? Our faces feel like you removed a layer of dead skin cells, leaving fresh, smooth skin. You won't notice younger skin right away BUT the next day you'll notice that your skin looks revived and healthy. We like to use this mask once a week.
Dry skin, meet your match. This super hydrating sheet mask is a trip to use, especially if you've never used one. When you open the package, you'll find a gel-ish, gold, Jason-esque mask marinating in gooey serum that's going to saturate your face in a ton of key ingredients including nanogold (#ballin). This mask leaves our skin feeling mad hydrated, firm and refreshed.
No one likes oily skin, and this mask is reserved for those special times when our skin is bugging out. Now, don't think you should use this mask all of the time to try and combat your oil production—it's meant to help balance things, but overuse will lead to dry, irritated skin. As the mask dries on your face and the charcoal in the formula gets activated, you can actually see the oil and impurities being pulled out of your skin. This is a great face mask for men looking to take control of their skin.
We like to use this mask when our skin is feeling dull and lifeless, especially after hitting the town a little too hard. Manuka honey and greek yogurt are the main ingredients in this mask that nourish, clean and illuminate your skin. Why should you care about brightening your skin? It's the one thing that'll keep you looking young and fresh. We can definitely see a difference in our complexion after rinsing this off. We like to use this mask one to two times per week.

Alice H. Parker was born in 1895 and grew up in Morristown, New Jersey. She attended classes at Howard University Academy in Washington D.C. In 1910, Alice earned a certificate with honors from the Academy.
Almost 100 years ago, on December 23, 1919, an official patent was granted to Alice Parker for a furnace design that shows natural gas being used as a power source when most homeowners were using wood and coal to warm their homes. Her design allowed cool air to be drawn into the furnace, then conveyed though a heat exchanger that delivered warm air through ducts to individual rooms in a house. Her design was not the first for a gas furnace design, but it was the first to incorporate a multiple yet individual controlled burner system. Although the exact design was never used due to safety issues with the regulation of heat flow, the design was an important concept to the modern heating zone systems and thermostats.
Not only was her patent an achievement to the future of HVAC and heating, but Alice H. Parker was an African American woman who received a patent in a time where there were very limited opportunities.


SANTIAGO, April 4 (Reuters) - LATAM Airlines will cancel or reschedule flights in Chile between April 10 and April 13 as a precaution while it continues to negotiate with a union of flight attendants who have threatened to strike, the company said on Wednesday.
LATAM earlier this week requested a period of government mediation to extend talks with the union, which threatened to strike in early March after failing to reach a deal with the airline.
The continuing negotiations have staved off the risk of a walkoff until at least April 10, LATAM said in a statement.
However, the company said it was notifying travel agencies and passengers on flights after that date in order to minimize any impacts on their travel plans.
LATAM said the majority of flights affected would be within Chile, with minimal impact on regional flights between South American countries.
The Union of Cabin Workers of LAN Express declined to comment on the matter.


The closer you look at fungi the more you see; and the more you look closely at tree trunks and branches the more fungi you see. Some little mushrooms are so tiny that they are often overlooked or assumed to be some of the numerous blob-like ascomycetes of millimetric dimensions. Many of the tiniest cap-and-stem mushrooms fruit on dead twigs - even those attached to living trees - and so it's important to look up as well as down when wandering through woodlands in search of new finds.
Very common throughout Britain and Ireland, the Twig Parachute is also common and abundant in northern and central mainland Europe, becoming less evident in the Mediterranean region.
This mushroom was described in 1788 by the French mycologist Jean Baptiste Francois (Pierre) Bulliard, who named it Agaricus ramealis. (In the early days of fungal taxonomy, most of the gilled mushrooms were included initially in a huge genus Agaricus; later many new genera were erected into which the majority of species were transferred, so that nowadays the genus Agaricus is rather more manageable!) It was the German-born mycologist Rolf Singer who, in 1946, transferred this species to its present genus, thus establishing its currently-accepted scientific name Marasmiellus ramealis.
Synonyms of Marasmiellus ramealis include Agaricus ramealis Bull., Agaricus amadelphus Bull., Gymnopus ramealis (Bull.) Gray, Marasmius amadelphus (Bull.) Fr., Marasmius ramealis (Bull.) Fr., Marasmiellus amadelphus (Bull.) M.M. Moser, and Micromphale rameale (Bull.) Kühner.
The genus name Marasmius comes from the Greek word marasmos, meaning 'drying out'. Elias Magnus Fries, who separated the Marasmius genus from the similar white-spored Collybia fungi, used as a key differentiating factor the ability of Marasmius mushrooms to recover if rehydrated after drying out.
Fries called this characteristic 'marescence'. Fungi such as the Twig Parachute are placed in the genus Marasmiellus because they are 'like Marasmius species but even smaller'.
The origin of the specific epithet ramealis is implicit in the prefix ram- meaning branch. Thus the tendency of the Twig Parachute to grow on dead twigs and small dead branches is reflected in the name ramealis.
White or pale cream; convex initially, flattening at maturity; radially wrinkled at margin; 0.3 to 1.5cm across.
Pinkish-white, turning ochre when old; adnate; narrow; distant.
Upper stem is concolorous with the cap, but it becomes a darker brown near to the base; slightly scurfy; delicate; 0.5 to 2cm long and typically 1mm dia; no ring.
Cylindrical or bean shaped, smooth, 7.5-11 x 2.5-4μm; inamyloid.
On dead twigs fallen from conifers and from broadleaf hardwood trees or on dead attached twigs; also commonly seen on dead bramble stems.
Marasmius androsaceus, known as the Horsehair Parachute, has long, thin black stems.
Marasmius rotula has it gills joined not directly to the stem but to a collar surrounding the stem.
These tiny mushrooms are of not known to be edible, and in any case because of their diminutive size they are of no culinary interest.

Fall is a perfect time to plant perennials in Utah. Or transplant, or divide and transplant. I overheard a landscape professional say that you can plant any time as long as the ground is not frozen.
- The ground is still warm so the roots can become established.
- The air is cool so the plant won't have the added stress of heat to deal with.
- The air is cool so the gardener won't have the added stress of heat to deal with!
Just make sure you water new plantings in well, especially this year as the ground is very dry.

Our historically romantic notion of the library is that of mellow book-lined walls creating discrete places for reading, browsing, and study: the book defining the architecture. The history of library design provides many rich and evocative examples of this image, yet this is not the environment of most contemporary libraries. Next week architects Merrill Elam and Michael J. Crosbie will show us the new generation of this classic building type.
A lot of attention recently has been given to the reuse of building materials rescued from demolition sites. Of course, some materials are more reusable than others. Now the Commonwealth of Virginia has demonstrated a impressive savings of by recycling broken concrete. Next week we'll see how they have made this debris live again in a new structure.


To commemorate the centenary of the end of World War One, a story of an everyman who fought in the trenches, told through songs by composers or with words by poets who lived through the time of The Great War.
Performed by Robert-John Edwards (Bass-Baritone) and Sara Wilander (Piano).
The concert will take place after a short first half when some local poets will help us to remember the war and some of the local men who took part in it, and we will remember those commemorated on the two war memorials at St John's.
There will then be a fifteen minute interval and a chance to view images of Peterborough from the time of the war during it.
Advance tickets will be available from the welcome counter in St John's when the church is open at £8 or online for £8.50 (https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/boxoffice/select/SHyHIoGEsOVd)Tickets will also be available on the door for £10.
Refreshments will be provided by The Green Backyard pop-up café team.
Beginning with Ivor Gurney's setting of "I Will Go With My Father A-Ploughing" and ending with the heart-breaking setting of Housman's "Is My Team Ploughing?" by George Butterworth, himself killed in the trenches, twenty songs by a variety of composers tell the tale of a ploughboy, perhaps born around 1890. We start with him as a child, watching his father plough the fields and learning the farmer's trade. The songs progress through his youth, where he becomes ambitious and then meets the girl of his dreams, woos her, marries her and has a child. He then joins the army, singing uplifting war songs before the horrors of the "Great" War begin to bite. He becomes home-sick, sees death up close and then, at his last hour, is desperate to go home.
The recital also includes a new original setting of McCrae's "In Flanders' Fields" composed by Robert-John Edwards.

Once when Benet was about fourteen she and her mother had been alone in a train carriage - and Mopsa had tried to stab her with a carving knife.
It was some time since Benet had seen her psychologically disturbed mother. So when Mopsa arrived at the airport looking drab and colourless in a dowdy grey suit, Benet tried not to hate her.
But then the tragic death of a child begins a chain of deception, kidnap and murder in which three women are pushed to their psychological limit.
Winner of the Crime Writers' Association Silver Dagger in 1984 and shortlisted for the Mystery Writers of America Edgar Awards. Adapted into a hit thriller film starring Lauren Bacall.
A young boy dies, another goes missing, and one mother's choice will forever alter many lives When Benet's young son dies on the operating table, she cannot be comforted-not even by her mother who cares for a young boy just about the same age. Meanwhile, another mother's son goes missing, and police circle around possible suspects in what must be murder. These three mothers-the schizophrenic Mopsa, upwardly mobile Benet, and gold-digging Carol-become forever entwined by death, delusion, kidnapping, and murder, and one woman's loss becomes another's gain. With deft characterization and keen insight, Rendell presents a complex, real exploration of morality and a mother's love in this Crime Writers' Association Macallan Silver Dagger award-winning novel.

Rome is one of the most inspiring and beautiful capitals in the world and is famously known as the 'Eternal City' of Italy. It has a great mix of sights, art and street life. Rome belongs to the Lazio region of Italy and is home to 2.9 million residents making it the largest city in the country. In 2014, it was ranked as the 14th most visited city in the world and is the most popular tourist attraction in Italy. UNESCO has listed its historic center as a World Heritage Site. Two of the most visited tourist sights here include the Vatican Museum and the Colosseum which receives millions of tourists every year.
Rome has an amazing artistic heritage and this has resulted in the city been full of priceless treasures. Ancient statues, world-class museums, Byzantine mosaics, and renaissance frescoes dazzle all parts of the city. Top artists that were from Rome include Michelangelo, Raphael, Caravaggio and Bernini. The cityscape here is absolutely breathtaking and is the result of 3000 years of development. Places like the Colosseum, Roman Forum and the Pantheon will take you back to when the Roman Empire was a fearsome hub. One of the greatest of all the monuments in the city is St. Peters Basilica which is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. The Baroque style is also evident in the ornate piazzas and elaborate churches.
Apart from all the sights, art and culture, Rome also has some great street side cafés and restaurants that offer a combination of romantic al fresco settings and superlative food. If you are looking for a truly Roman meal then the best places to go are the pizzerias and trattoria's where many of the locals go. The best time to visit Rome is during the months of March to June and September to November.

In Cold Blood by Truman Capote
written by Jonathan Wong
DOWNLOAD A COPY:
Name: Truman Capote
American writer, playwright and actor, born September 1924
In Cold Blood (1966) is considered his best work
Childhood friends with Harper Lee (author of To Kill a Mockingbird)
Mini Plot Summary:
The novel details the real-life murders of the Clutter family in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas. It is a fictionalised version of true events, and the majority of the story is told from the point of view of the murderers, Richard 'Dick' Hicock and Perry Smith.
Extended Plot Summary:
The story starts in Holcomb, Kansas, which is described as a 'lonesome' and isolated place. The residents of Holcomb are a 'prosperous people', and an example of this prosperity is the Clutter family, who own their own farm and ranch.
There are four members of the Clutter family: Herb Clutter (father), a charismatic man who is much liked amongst the Holcomb community. Bonnie (mother), a nervous woman who does not like to socialise. Their children Nancy (daughter) and Kenyon (son) are well-adjusted teenagers.
In the middle of a mid-November night, Dick and Perry break into the Clutter ranch and proceed to murder the entire family. These 'four shotgun blasts that, all told, ended six human lives' send shockwaves through the small town of Holcomb.
The story then shifts perspective, following Dick Hickok and Perry Smith. Dick and Perry are two ex-criminals who have learned that Herb Clutter owns a safe in his ranch containing a lot of money.
Capote paints a detailed portrait of these men's lives. Perry is described more sympathetically by Capote, and it is mentioned that he has an interest in the arts, and literature, and that he has some talent for music. Perry's legs are abnormally short due to a motorcycle accident that occurred in his childhood, and his upbringing is explained to have been rough and traumatic. Dick is a 'normal' man, raised in a normal household, although his criminal history is highlighted; he used to write bad checks when he was younger in order to make money for himself.
When Dick and Perry reach the Clutter ranch, they soon discover that there is very little money to steal. They decide to kill the Clutters anyway, shooting each member of the family in the head with a shotgun.
Dick and Perry soon flee to Kansas City, where Dick writes bad checks to keep them afloat. Not long after, however, they flee again to Mexico - Perry has fantastical dreams of a 'skin-diving, treasure-hunting life'. Perry is noticeably dependent on Dick (and far more naive than him), and Dick is clearly the leader of the two criminals.
Meanwhile, back in Holcomb, fear and disbelief has spread quickly throughout the town. 'Locks and bolts are the fastest-going item' and the town's citizens are faced with 'the unique experience of distrusting each other'. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), lead by Alvin Dewey, begin searching for clues, although they are initially unable to make much progress.
The case is soon solved when Floyd Wells - a former cellmate of Dick's - informs authorities about Dick's plan to rob and murder the Clutters. The KBI begins a manhunt for Dick and Perry.
Dick and Perry - who have run out of money in Mexico - soon return to the United States. Capote provides us with an extended biography of Perry, whose childhood is described as horrific. He was very poor, and he did not have access to a proper education, and he was ultimately placed in a Catholic orphanage where he was beaten by the 'Black Widows'.
Dick and Perry spend some time writing bad checks, but after running out of money again, they soon make their way to Las Vegas. Perry has posted some of his belongings from Mexico (including a pair of boots worn on the night of the murder that will become a key piece of evidence against him). Dick and Perry are arrested right before they stop to collect a box containing some of these belongings.
After a long and arduous set of trials (Dick and Perry are put on Death Row for years), the court ultimately finds them guilty and sentences them to death. Questions are raised by Capote concerning the fairness of the judicial system in the United States.
After their last appeal is denied, Dick and Perry are hanged on April 14, 1965.
Overarching Themes:
The illusion of the American Dream
The community of Garden City and its 'suburb', Holcomb, are significantly affected by the murder of the Clutters
Prior to the murders, there is a sense of 'contentment', and 'children are safe to run free'
It was a place where 'drama, in the shape of exceptional happenings' simply did not occur
But after the murders:
People feel alienated and disoriented
They feel as if they have been 'told there is no God'
People become suspicious and wary of each other
They endure 'the unique experience of distrusting each other'
The murders were so shocking that no-one could have seen the coming - not even the Clutters themselves
Mrs Ashida contemplates that she '[bets Herb Clutter] wasn't afraid'
She finds it hard to fathom that someone could have done something so horrible - that 'it couldn't' happen - 'not to [the Clutters]'
Like the other members of the community in which they lived, the Clutters never conceived of the possibility of their murders
They did nothing to resist Dick and Perry, believing that, if they complied with the men's wishes, they would be safe
The lack of social mobility creates a dangerous division in American society
Capote's portrayal of both the Clutter family and the Clutter killers suggests that the American dream is just that: merely a fallacy
To all outside appearances, the Clutter family represent the achievement of the American dream
Herb is 'everywhere respectfully recognised', and is said to have 'raised a fine family' and 'made something of his life'
However, Capote insinuates that the perfection of this family is a myth:
Though active in the community, Kenyon prefers to 'be alone'
Bonnie Clutter's mental health is a 'serious cause for disquiet'
While the portrayal of the Clutter family casts doubt over the validity of the American dream, the lives of Dick and Perry shatter it
Both Dick and Perry have lived in poverty, with little opportunity for social mobility
Even though Dick was an 'outstanding athlete' and a 'pretty- good student', he was unable to attend college because his parents 'plain didn't have the money'
Perry's opportunities were even more limited, for he was denied the opportunity to attend school by his father, who 'didn't want [him] to learn anything'
The inability to live the American Dream can lead individuals to a life of crime
The murder central to the plot – the murder of the Clutter family – seems to be the result of murderers Perry Smith and Dick Hickock's inability to respectively achieve the American Dream and reveals its flaws
Haunted by memories of a childhood wracked by poverty and abuse
'When he was seven years old, a hated, hating half-breed child living in a California orphanage run by nuns' (need to integrate)
He is never able to achieve the American Dream of a middle-class existence
Is frustrated by the normal means by which he might achieve the American Dream
He turns to a life of crime
Primarily through "hanging paper" (writing bad checks) and, ultimately, hatching a plan with Perry to rob the Clutters
The influence of family and one's upbringing
A positive upbringing is advantageous in life
The Clutter family, particularly the children, who have grown up with material advantages
Suffered a horrific childhood
He was:
Rejected by his alcoholic mother
Deprived of access to an education
Never experienced emotional intimacy and security with another human
When he sought help from his father, he simply 'told [Perry] to be good and hugged [him] and went away' (p.139)
He was placed in a Catholic orphanage:
He was beaten by the 'Black Widows' (p.139) for wetting the bed
He was then placed in a children's shelter run by the Salvation Army where he was exposed to even worse abuses
These experiences taught him the 'evil' (p.139) of which people are capable
He then signed up for Merchant Marines
Where 'the queens on ship wouldn't leave me alone' (p.140)
'the same problem came up' (p.141) years later when he was in the army
He was rejected and ostracised by his sister:
She tells him he cannot blame others for his childhood and must take responsibility
(need quotes)
The portrayal of Perry provokes the reader to consider that he was not a natural-born killer
It is arguable that Perry's actions resulted from an unhappy childhood:
That he was not born evil
That he might have been 'savable'
Capote suggests that if Perry had received love and kindness, rather than growing up 'without direction' and '[without] any fixed sense of moral values]' then his life might have turned out very differently
His criticism is aimed not only at Perry's family, but also at institutions like the orphanage that enhanced Perry's homicidal potential by traumatising him rather than caring for him
Capote believes that Dick and Perry's criminal tendencies are a consequence of mental illness, which questions the extent to which they are responsible for the murders
Capote points to a variety of evidence deemed inadmissible, including:
Dr Jones' belief that Perry's:
'Ability to separate the real situation from his own mental projections is very poor'
And that his 'present personality structure is very nearly that of a paranoid schizophrenic reaction'
Dr Jones' conclusions being corroborated by Dr Joseph Satten of the Menninger Clinic, who is a 'widely respected veteran' in the study of 'forensic psychiatry'
Dr Satten contends that when Smith attacked Mr Clutter he was under a mental eclipse, 'deep inside a schizophrenic darkness'
This conclusion seems to fit with Perry's statements that '[he] didn't want to harm the man' and that '[he] didn't realize what I'd done till [he'd] heard the sound'
Capote's decision to present this compelling (but inadmissible) evidence, shows us that the jury perhaps should have been privy to this expert testimony
The portrayal of Perry provokes the reader to consider that his criminal tendencies are a result of nurture, rather than nature
He was a man of talent and sensitivity whose mind was warped by neglect, abuse and trauma
'[Perry's] feelings [are]…easily hurt, and so [is Perry's father]'
Economic pressure/poverty in early life can lead individuals to commit acts of crime
Perry is unable to live within the boundaries of normal society, which has shaped his decisions/life
Perry was poor growing up
Until the age of five, Perry's parents '[worked] the rodeo circuit'
Perry recalls 'Six of us riding in an old truck, sleeping in it, too, sometimes, living off mush and Hershey kisses and condensed milk.'
The same goes for Dick:
His parents, though poor, are 'plain, honest people' (p.171) who provided Dick with a happy childhood
Their only fault, it seems, is poverty, which prevented them from sending Dick to college because they 'plain didn't have the money' (p.168)
The fairness (or lack of fairness) of the justice system
Capote questions whether the criminal proceedings brought against Dick and Perry were carried out in a just manner
Specifically regarding Perry:
Capote's argument is that the tests/measures used to determine whether he was mentally ill were far too 'colorblind' and that failed to take into account any 'permutations between black and white'
Capote laments that Dr Jones is 'confined' and '[made] impotent' by the 'M'Naughten rule'
Jones is only able to answer with 'yes or no' regarding the question of whether the defendants 'knew right from wrong at the time of the commission of the crime'
Capote thinks that the 'Durham Rule' would have been more appropriate because it was more lenient/flexible
Capote believes that mental illness was not properly considered by the jury in the case
Capote paints a far more complex picture of Perry than is described in the trial in the latter half of the novel
He argues that Perry's traumatic experiences contributed to the development of his criminal psychopathology
He includes Dr Jones' inadmissible findings on both Dick and Perry in the text
Dr Jones reveals that Dick shows 'signs of emotional abnormality' and states that 'organic brain damage ... cannot be completely ruled out'
Dr Jones also concludes that Dick 'shows fairly typical characteristics' of something resembling 'severe character disorder'
Capote believes the questions marks over Dick and Perry's mental health call into question the degree to which they are culpable for their actions
Perry's culpability is questioned in particular
Whether capital punishment is justified in this case
Inhumanity of capital punishment
Capote ponders whether capital punishment is really the most appropriate sanction
He considers in particular whether the testimony of the psychiatrists should have been considered
Their testimonies are not presented at trial, but they are laid out in detail in In Cold Blood
Capote not only suggests that capital punishment is nothing more than sacrificial violence against the 'poor and friendless', but that it is in itself a cruel practice
He graphically describes the hanging of several criminals
He notes that Dick's hanging lasted for 'a full twenty minutes' and that he could be heard 'gasping for breath'
He describes the sight of Perry's execution: 'childish feet, tilted, dangling'
He doesn't feel that this ending represents a 'design justly completed'
But arguably the inhuman act of hanging Dick and Perry is necessary due to the extreme circumstances
Capote implies that justice can only be achieved through the death penalty because of the fact that there is 'no such thing as life imprisonment without… parole' in Kansas
Allowing the possibility of parole would result in the people of Holcomb being deprived of closure
The state cannot risk Dick and Perry being released back into the community
Therefore they do everything possible to ensure the death penalty is given
The citizens seem unusually in favour of the death penalty in this case:
'Ordinarily I'm against it. But in this case, no'
'At the time not a soul in sleeping Holcomb heard them — four shotgun blasts that, all told, ended six human lives'
When prosecuting attorney Green argues that 'if ever there was a case in which the maximum penalty was justified, this is it' (p.304)
He speaks for the majority of Kansans, though a few consider the action of hanging a man to be 'pretty goddam cold-blooded too'

'Environment plays an awfully important part in our lives' (Barbara)
'We have very little control over our human weaknesses' (Barbara)
'It is no shame to have a dirty face - the shame comes when you keep it dirty' (Barbara)

'When he came out of Lansing, he was a plain stranger to me' (Dick's father talking about the effect of Dick's incarceration)
'He can seem so warm-hearted' … 'He can fool you' (Perry's mother talking about Perry)

The Battle of amfAR presents the little-known story of how in the early days of the AIDS pandemic an unlikely alliance between a celebrity and a scientist helped changed the public perception of the disease and led to the search for a cure.
Hollywood superstar Elizabeth Taylor and Sloan-Kettering research scientist Dr. Mathilde Krim joined forces to create greater AIDS awareness, fight government indifference and public stigma, and establish amFAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research -- the first national organization dedicated to mobilizing the scientific community in the fight against AIDS and for a cure.
Concerned about a growing epidemic, Dr. Kim recruited Taylor to leverage her celebrity status to bring media attention to the disease and push for groundbreaking legislation. Taylor delivered powerful testimony before Congress and convinced President Reagan for the first time to publicly acknowledge the existence of HIV/AIDS as a worldwide pandemic. Dr. Krim focused on energizing the scientific community through her professional, political and social connections.
The Battle of amfAR reconstructs the history of the early years of the AIDS crisis through the twin lenses of early medical concern and the dedicated activism of these two powerful women. The film also explains some of the challenging science of the disease and the important breakthroughs in AIDS research.
The amFAR foundation's support for early stage research has altered the course of the epidemic and brought the world closer to finding a cure. In 1996, research partially funded by amfAR led to lifesaving new drugs that made HIV/AIDS treatable, a diagnosis that no longer guaranteed a death sentence.
While the film traces the history of the search for an AIDS cure and offers hope, it also provides a dramatic reminder that the epidemic is far from over.

Dr. Nathanial Landau, microbiologist, New York University

Dr. Mario Stevenson, Miami Center for AIDS Research

Reviews and Festivals
BROADCAST ON HBO
SCREENED AT SUNDANCE
"Recommended...a dramatic telling of the emerging HIV/AIDS epidemic and the collaboration of activists, celebrities, and scientists to combat the virus in a hostile environment of apathy, hysteria, and ignorance. It can be easy to forget how many people must be involved with finding the solutions to health crises. The Battle of amfAR reminds us of the collaborations necessary to make large social changes and the importance of funding scientific research."
— Educational Media Reviews Online
"An eye-opening addition to health or history studies...effectively demonstrating the enormous need for research and the political, monetary, and scientific obstacles that researchers such as Dr. Mathilde Krim faced."
— School Library Journal
"The Battle of amfAR skillfully traces the unlikely alliance of science, celebrity, and activism in the fight to confront stigma and government indifference in the ongoing quest for a cure."
— Steven Epstein, Professor of Sociology at Northwestern University, author of Impure Science: AIDS, Activism, and the Politics of Knowledge
"The film poignantly and lucidly portrays an important chapter in the historical intersection of medicine and politics."
— Estelle Freedman, Professor of Women's History and Feminist Studies, Stanford University
"Pays tribute to those who did recognize a crisis, who did fight, who did think the victims mattered and who ultimately helped us understand that its impact spread far beyond the three original groups. Because the fight isn't over, this isn't a story of victory. It is a story of triumph, and an essential reminder of how we need to define it."
— New York Daily News
"A historical survey, with statistics, about the rise of HIV/AIDS in the 1980s, the public's fearful response and the creation of life-sustaining drugs in the mid-1990s. The last part is crucial because of amfAR's direct involvement in that breakthrough research thanks to the grants it awards, and the documentary does a nice job of pausing at least in that moment to explain the science of such an important achievement."

Nurses in Six Counties go on Strike
Nurses in the Six Counties who are members of the union Unison have faced freezing conditions to take part in a day of strike action to demand better pay.
Strikes have been taking place since just after midnight and have seen nurses, ambulance staff and other health workers walking out and standing with placards in temperatures as low as -4C.
"It was extremely cold, but they were very determined to stand out and speak up" Anne Speed
Anne Speed, head of bargaining and representation at Unison Northern Ireland, told Nursing Times thousands of nurses were striking.
She said the atmosphere on the picket lines was one of determination and frustration and that there was "great solidarity among the workers".
Members of the public had also shown support and had brought striking staff hot drinks and snacks.
"In freezing temperatures, that response from the public has been a real morale boost," said Ms Speed.
On Strike placard sits in garbage pail post strike. Narrow depth with soft background. Shot in sun setting light.
Ms Speed said she was at the picket at Antrim Area Hospital this morning and the first group of staff who came out were nurses.
"It was extremely cold, but they were very determined to stand out and speak up," she added.
One staff nurse on the picket line, who has been nursing for more than 40 years, described the current pay and conditions for health staff as "terrible".
Nurses in Northern Ireland only received confirmation of their 2022-23 pay award last week, following an eight-month delay.
The award will see most staff on the Agenda for Change scheme receive a boost of £1,400 to their full-time equivalent salaries, as per the recommendations of the NHS Pay Review Body.
The below-inflation pay package is the same as that received by nurses in England and Wales which is causing them to strike too this month.
With the 10,000 nurses on strike for better pay in the North today.
We have two pay rates for Nurses in Ireland.
Nurses in NHS in the North are paid £29,710 (€34,810) in the South the HSE pay nurses €40,563 (£34,620)
Both health services are drastically short of nurses.
This is directly linked to low pay and chronic working conditions in two health services that are on their knees through underfunding.
As the debate for Irish unity continues unity must not mean the cobbling together of two failed health services or two failed states.
Unity must mean in health one fully funded all-Ireland health service, free at the point of entry from the cradle to the grave and offers decent pay and conditions for those working in it.
Partition is not good for our health.

Tourism Ministry will promote balneal spas in extra season and low-price offers in these spas, as well as cheap destinations, said on Thursday in a news conference, tourism minister Elena Udrea.
'We'll try to promote balneal spas in extra season as they will have discounts and people can take advantage. Through the 'Tourist in Romania' campaign we'll promote mainly the cheap tourist packages, said Udrea.
She added that the Tourism Ministry would make investments in balneal spas, mainly in local authorities' projects.
'We've approved several projects of the local authorities.
Next year we'll have a development strategy for the balneal tourism,' said Udrea.
Among the projects presented by the Romanian tourism minister is also the promotion of the Ana Aslan Institute.
'We are aiming a memorandum pertaining to the Ana Aslan Institute. The institute suffers because of scant patients, because in time there have been interests for the land surrounding the institute.
Talks with the Health Ministry are underway in this respect, while the Tourism Ministry should provide the tourism activity,' said Udrea.


HomeAll PostsUncategorizedReady or Not: Should You Start Your Own Business?
Small business ownership can be many different things to many different types of small business owners. For the objectives of this article, assume that you're looking to start your own business which will require not only the majority of your time but a reasonable financial investment.
Owning a small business requires more than just a product, and all of your skills will be tested during your first few months. Here are a few questions to ask yourself before jumping into your possible business endeavor.
Why are You Launching a Small Business?
Understanding your underlying reasons for launching your business can be one of the most important ways to tell if you're prepared to start your business or not. If your primary inspiration comes from the need to make a lot of money, then you're not alone. The best companies, however, become successful because of their complete dedication to whichever market they're hitting.
History's most successful entrepreneurs loved to innovate without the promise of financial gain. Do a personal inventory and think over if you'd still start your potential business even if it meant taking a pay cut for an indefinite period of time.
Leadership is more than just the ability to delegate tasks. A good leader is an ironclad decision-maker, but also willing to build a team with members selected for their expertise. Your judgment in your staff will translate directly to the success of your business and hiring people whose advice you trust will serve any small business owner very well.
How Do You Research your Competitors?
The final step before moving into the pre-production phase of your business is understanding your market. If you're working in a niche industry, then the best way to research your demographic and competition is to get involved with local and online communities surrounding your industry. Ask questions, give advice, and build connections with potential partners and clients. Another important aspect of your research should be to buy a product from a company who will become one of your biggest competitors. Analyze how their sales process works and try to identify ways that you can improve on their service.
The final question that you should ask yourself before looking into building your starting capital is more personal. If you have young children or any other major life events that will require the vast majority of your time, it might be wise to wait to launch your first business venture.
Owning a business means that you'll make your hours, but it also means that your off-time generally means that some important aspect of your business isn't running. Small business ownership requires more time than most salaried positions typically, and the only person you're accountable toward is yourself.
Starting a small business can be one of the most gratifying experiences in your life. It's high stress, but the satisfaction that comes from knowing that your product has improved someone's life is worth it. Weaning yourself away from salaried work makes your company a part of your legacy, and if you think you're capable of starting your own business then keep moving toward success.

The Distinguished Service Cross (abbreviation DSC) is the second highest military award that can be given to a member of the United States Army.[a] It is awarded for extreme gallantry and risk of life in actual combat with an armed enemy force. Actions that merit the Distinguished Service Cross must be above those required for all other U.S. combat decorations, but are not high enough for the Medal of Honor. The Distinguished Service Cross is the same as the Navy Cross (Navy and Marine Corps). The Air Force) has the Air Force Cross and the Coast Guard has the equivalent Coast Guard Cross. All are equivalent (equal) awards.
↑ Before 26 July 1947 this included the United States Army Air Forces. After that date the Army Air force became the United States Air Force, a separate service.
