Closing Thoughts and Final Review
So, yes, this is a synth, right? But it's kind of bland, right? So let's let's get back into that structure of you since we have time and let's talk about a couple of other things. So we talked about the three main components of a cent. Oscillator feel tramp. We talked about choosing a wave in it and, you know, tuning and phase. And we talked about the filter and talk about the type of filter and the residents in the cut off. Three, right? 333 Like sticking with that. Um, Now what we want to do is add modulation. So what does modulation Dio? Well, you know, it's funny, you know, Einstein talked about quantum mechanics and you said that, you know, it's like spooky action at a distance. Well, that's kind of what modulation is. What you're doing is you have you have this little module that's going over to one of the parameters. Now I must make that definition as well. When I say pitch or phase or any of these things that we can tweak on one of the sections of the scent, I call them parame...
ters. Um, and that's my language. I don't differ from that at all because I want to keep things simple, have a language. So when you have a modulator, a good example of a modulator would be an envelope or LFO or potentially something coming from the outside world like velocity. Um, we are kind of lucky and that one of our modulators is set up automatically. If I play the keyboard softly, it plays softly. If I hit it loud, hit it hard. It's loud, very sneaky. It's actually built into the gate here, so the gates automatically seeing velocity from my keyboard. But the velocity does not mean volume, and that's something that people get screwed up all the time. They're like, Oh, velocity is volume, but it's not. It's actually a control value that's been assigned to do volume. Okay, so that's 01 27. The lower it is, the softer it is harder. I hit it, but I could have that assigned anything could have it assigned to filter cut off if I want, or any of the other parameters of my sense. Right? So let's create an envelope. So I'm gonna control click built in module Goto envelope and choose a DSR very, very common modulator. And in all, since you will find one envelope and the envelope is usually an amp envelope because the amp envelope is shaping the overall sound. Uh, how is it shaping it? Well, we have an envelope. You have attacked, decay, sustain and release. The attack is going to determine how long ah parameter takes to get up to a certain value decay. It's gonna decay down to the sustained point. Okay, so attack and decay are both time based. It's like you can make them long or short. So if you have it assigned a volume, how long does it take to get up to its highest volume? You have decay, a short decay going to your sustain and your sustain happens to be a 3/4. That decay will be, however much time it takes to get to the sustained message and then releases when I let go of a key how long it takes to go back to zero. So to make an envelope, even work, we have to send it a gate value. We have to tell it to turn on. So I'm gonna take the gate and attach it to the envelope now the envelope. The funny thing is, most people would think if I was adjusting volume, that I'd have it assigned to my mixer to the level of my mixer. That's actually not true at all. And this is why modular synthesis is different than when we look at a synth inside of, you know, standard since built into a dollar or something like that. Um, the envelope here is going to be attached to the oscillator. So you remember how is talking about the gate on the back of the oscillator? Well, the gate can be open or it could be closed. Or, if we have an envelope, we have it slowly open and then come down, sustain and then close again. That's why we assign our envelope to the amplitude input of the oscillator. Now the amp input of the oscillator. It is an audio value because it's black, right, so 0 to 1. Now the output of my envelope happens to be 01 and those kind of things are very good to know. And if you choose view show info hints, you can actually hover over a port, and it'll tell you what the value is is very important to consider where your value, how your value is traveling through your system. So Ivan, enveloping in a control click, create a control, gonna create a control for each of these values of the envelope. And I'm gonna do one other thing, actually to other things. So the filter I'm gonna choose view in my properties. Now, remember the properties or where you set everything for your module. So it's very important to get familiar with this area. You've got function where you can build ports. You can tell it's certain values and all that kind of jazz. But then you have info, which tells you what the actual module is and then view. So if I choose visible now, that filter is actually going to show up in my instrument. So that's one way of making our instrument look a little bit more like a sense is to be able to see the filter. Now, I gotta kind of move all my knobs around for my envelope. Then I got I have two attacks. That doesn't make sense. Uh huh. Actually made a second attack. There we go. Here's my cut off. There's my residence. Now I can go to my envelope and do the same thing. I'll click on it. She's view and turn it on. Ah, that's cool. A nice visual stimulus telling us how the envelopes gonna work. So now there's a little bit of shape going on myself. You cool, right? So cool. Yes, that's helping out. I'm curious. A lot of people doing electronic music today, don't they come from like the programmatic background and not the musical like I grew up playing piano background, right? So where? Tell me a little bit about your like, Are you a piano player? Did you start out playing piano or did Yes, you have foot. Here's the funny thing about me and synthesis is that I started out as a as a classical musician. I was a brass player and I played classical piano and I played in ensembles and I was really pretty fiercely dedicated to it. Um, but when I was very young, I was 12 years old and I was exposed to ah DX seven and in DX 11 hooked up these air to FM since there were hooked up to a sequencer on a four track and my my good buddy David Kurtz, who's now David Aquino. He pressed play and this amazing score came out of this stuff, and I looked at it and said, I want to do that for the rest of my life and that's where that started. And then I heard this artist who was very influential on me. Was Van jealous who did the score for Blade Runner and like is just a very influential electronic music artist, and I really wanted blend both worlds. So you had the whole, you know, acoustic instruments, side of things, and then electron ICS. But when it comes to synthesis, like, really tried to build since for the since sake not try to emulate other instruments so much, but make really interesting tones with scent and allow that to be its own voice. So when I was 16 I was introduced to this guy, um, over it President State, and he took me in and showed me modular synthesis for the first time. We're actually taken quarter inch patch cables and patching everything together and doing that stuff, and and that was sort of and I really started. Get on a tear with synthesis after that. So all of these things were happening concurrently. You know, I had, like, I was a player playing, you know, piano. And then I started getting into jazz and funk and all that and playing in bands playing keyboards. Um, the brass, unfortunately went to the wayside. And then I was also composing for film projects and things like that. And when I was composing for film, I relied very heavily on sense. And that's when I started using computers more and stuff like that. So when I started doing ads because in the ad world everything has to be fast, that's a fast. So it's kind of beautiful women reactor came out, and you're able to build your own sense without having to buy cause modular sense, the real ones. The hardware is insanely expensive, like really expensive. So to be able to have the software that emulates it really well, eyes pretty cool. And I basically the tech side of me. I'm primarily creative, but I've developed the tech side of me to be able to do things like this, and it's all in service of making the music more interesting. You know what I mean? um, but I feel that everybody has a certain Yeah, they have a certain balance of how creative versus technical they are. And I'm always trying to keep mine very even to make sense. Yeah, totally cool. So, um yeah. So when reactor came out, I was like, he was like a kid in a candy store. But the thing about reactors, you have to, like, set aside time to program stuff, and then once you have a program, you have set of tools that are very interesting to play with.

A GLIMPSE OF SANTA ROSA'S UNDERWORLD
BICYCLISTS: FIX THE STREETS OR GIVE US THE SIDEWALKS
Two months after the 1906 earthquake, Mrs. August Herbst was strolling in Oakland with her husband and 11-year-old daughter. She was distracted for a moment and the next thing she knew, her husband and child had vanished. Days passed, weeks passed, with no sign of them. She moved to Santa Rosa to live with friends. And finally, four months later, she decided it was time to report their disappearance to authorities.
Her daughter was found months later and had a remarkable tale to tell. She had been taken to Arizona where her father ordered her to say her name was Miller, not Herbst. She was told that her mother would be joining them "soon." It sounds like a classic parental abduction except that dad began distancing himself from the girl, taking a job where he was seldom home. When she received a letter that he was now living in another state, she asked strangers for help. Mom was eventually located in Santa Rosa, and she was reunited with her daughter about seven months after the child had been spirited away.
Just as she had been remarkably patient waiting four months for her hubby to return with her daughter, she now was uncommonly generous excusing his behavior: "Mrs. Herbst believes that the earthquake and fire have affected her husband's mind and that he is hardly responsible for the things that have transpired and the anguish he has caused her to suffer."
Yes, there were undoubtedly many who suffered severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from the earthquake, and some even likely died later as a result - see the cases mentioned in casualty wrap-up for a few examples - and Mr. Herbst's wandering ways certainly make him seem like a candidate. Still, there's a "dog that didn't bark in the night" mystery to this story; why did she wait so long to report her child missing, particularly if she feared that her husband had become unhinged?
WOMAN FEARS SHE WAS DESERTED.
Asks Police to Aid Her in Locating Husband and Little Daughter
MAN ACTED QUEERLY
OAKLAND, Oct. 23--Mrs. A. E. Herbst, whose home is in Santa Rosa, today sought the aid of the local police in locating her husband, August E. Herbst, and her 11-year-old daughter, Gladys Herbst, who have been missing for the last five months. Mrs. Herbst fears that she has been deserted by her husband, and that he has taken his daughter with him.
Shortly after the San Francisco fire Herbst, who until that time had resided in San Francisco, removed to this side of the bay, and up to the time of his disappearance resided with his family on Redwood road, in Fruitvale. On June 28, Herbst, with his wife and family, were walking on Broadway, and in some way the wife became separated from her husband and daughter. Since that time no trace of the missing father and daughter has been found. Some time after the disappearance of the husband Mrs. Herbst went to Santa Rosa to live with friends.
- San Francisco Call, October 24, 1906
GLADYS HERBERT IN SANTA ROSA
Mystery of Father is Deep as Ever
Gladys Herbst, the girl whose father took her away just after the April earthquake and fire, and whose mother has been almost heartbroken over the continued absence of the father and daughter, arrived at her home here on Monday morning. She is now safe with her mother and both are happy in being reunited.
The mystery concerning the disappearance of the father, and the causes which impelled him to desert his wife and take the daughter with him to Bisbee, Arizona, are not cleared up in any manner by the return of the daughter. The girl is between eleven and twelve years old and the father's actions caused here to be frightened. He refused to talk to her concerning the matter and refused to permit her to talk to any one else. He forced her to tell people her name was Gladys Miller and compelled her to assume that name from the time they left San Francisco together. When the heartless father finally deserted the child in Bisbee, she was fearful of his wrath if she divulged her true name of Gladys Herbst.
The time since the separation from her mother has been as a hideous nightmare to the little girl. Living among strangers, seldom seeing her father, and being refused permission to talk, and fearful of his wrath, the days have seemed like years to the child.
When the mother and other members of the family came here according to arrangements, Herbst pretended he wanted to get Gladys a dress and some things. After separating from his wife, the father left Gladys at a residence in Oakland, where she was not acquainted. He went to San Francisco to straighten out some affairs pertaining to a lodge, and returned for the girl that evening. Together they crossed the bay to San Francisco and took the coast route toward Los Angeles. They went straight to Bisbee, where the father, unter the name of Gus Miller, secured a position superintending some timbering in the tunnel being driven by the owners of the spray mine. He seldom saw his daughter, because the mine was a couple of miles from Bisbee. He gave the girl to understand that they were soon going to her mother, and the child was happy in this thought.
When her father left her stranded in Bisbee, among strangers, the child's plight was desperate. Letters were received from Herbst, or Miller, as he was known, saying he had gone to El Paso. Friends whom the girl had bade undertook to find her father for her, and finally she told them her name was Herbst, not Miller. Attorney Ross, an influential member of the legal fraternity at Bisbee, took the child to his own home and through his influence and kindness, assisted by the ladies of the Episcopal church in Bisbee, the mother's whereabouts were found and the child returned.
En route to this city the protection of the Episcopal ladies was around the little girl. She came to Oakland with a couple of ladies of that denomination and remained in an Episcopal home until she started for Santa Rosa.
There were tears of joy as mother and daughter met in a long embrace Monday morning, and they will not be separated again soon.
Mrs. Herbst believes that the earthquake and fire have affected her husband's mind and that he is hardly responsible for the things that have transpired and the anguish he has caused her to suffer.

Teresa Giudice Shades RHONJ as "High School," Shares Thoughts on Caroline's Return, and Where She Stands With Danielle, Plus In-Laws and DWTS
Jack London 3 weeks ago
Teresa Giudice admitted there are things she doesn't like about The Real Housewives of New Jersey on an episode of her podcast.
Before answering a question from a fan, who wanted to know if she'd prefer a return from Caroline Manzo or Danielle Staub, gushing over her new in-laws, and sharing why she joined Dancing With the Stars, Teresa said she finds RHONJ to be childish.
"I don't like how our show is so.. sides. It's so, like, high school-ish," she explained on an episode of Namaste B$tches. "I don't like how Jersey is because it seems like… pick a side. And it's like, I think you should be kind to everyone and then make your decision based on if you click with that person or not."
While the upcoming 13th season has already wrapped production and is expected to begin airing in the coming months, Teresa addressed a number of different casting possibilities, including the potential return of Caroline, who she would not prefer over Danielle.
"Oh my God. It doesn't even go. She doesn't even go with us," Teresa said at the thought.
"And the thing is," she continued, seemingly in a nod to Melissa Gorga, "people that don't like me are gonna say, 'Yes! Bring her on. Yes!' It's like, please, I'm gonna laugh at that."
Then, with direct shade at Melissa, Teresa said that she'd rather film with "neither" Caroline, nor Melissa.
As for where she stands with Danielle, Teresa confirmed they are not currently in touch.
"I don't get the last time, how she threw me under the bus when I'm the one that brought her back," Teresa explained of Danielle outing her for encouraging her to pull Margaret Josephs' hair on season 10.
"The reason why I wanted to bring her back and why I did yoga with her, because I was away, in jail and in camp, when I was away, and when I came home, I was a single mom, so I felt bad for her because her job was taken away from her and I just wanted her to know that that wasn't my doing," Teresa continued. "[And] she went against me, again, for no reason, and then she's the one that lost her job."
Now, years later, Teresa is "not really" on board with making amends for the third time.
"I think I've tried. I just got disappointed the last time," she noted.
While Teresa is also remaining on the outs with Melissa and her brother, Joe Gorga, she's in a great place with the family of her new husband, Luis Ruelas.
"They are so amazing. I love my father-in-law. I love my mother-in-law. They're the in-laws I've always wanted," she gushed. "They're beautiful people, and I adore them. And I thank Luis' mom all the time for raising such an amazing son, and the father also, both of them."
Regarding her short-lived stint on DWTS, Teresa said she had "so much fun."
"The reason why I decided to do this is I wanna show everyone out there that it's never too late to do anything in life. I've always wanted to be a dancer since I was little," she revealed. "So I [gave] it my all. I [didn't] want to let people down. I [didn't] want to let my fans down, I [didn't] wanna let my daughter down. Even [Audrianna Giudice] this week, she [was] like, 'Mommy, make sure you do good.'"
Unfortunately, Teresa was eliminated during week two. However, before she was, she endured an emotional moment as she prepared for Elvis week.
"I actually even cried… because it was about Elvis and I remember growing up, watching Elvis with my parents and then also when my dad lived with me, Elvis movies would come on once in a while, so that's what made me get emotional over it," she shared.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 13 will premiere on Bravo later this year or early next year.

Georg Braun Biography
Georg Braun (1541-1622) was born and died in Cologne. His primary vocation was as Catholic cleric; he spent thirty-seven years as canon and dean at the church St. Maria ad Gradus, in Cologne. Braun was the chief editor of the Civitates orbis terrarum, the greatest book of town views ever published. His job entailed hiring artists, acquiring source material for the maps and views, and writing the text. In this role, he was assisted by Abraham Ortelius. Braun lived into his 80s, and he was the only member of the original team to witness the publication of the sixth volume in 1617.
Frans Hogenberg Biography
Frans Hogenberg (ca. 1540-ca. 1590) was a Flemish and German engraver and mapmaker who also painted. He was born in Mechelen, south of Antwerp, the son of wood engraver and etcher Nicolas Hogenberg. Together with his father, brother (Remigius), uncle, and cousins, Frans was one member of a prominent artistic family in the Netherlands.
During the 1550s, Frans worked in Antwerp with the famous mapmaker Abraham Ortelius. There, he engraved the maps for Ortelius' groundbreaking first atlas, published in Antwerp in 1570, along with Johannes van Deotecum and Ambrosius and Ferdinand Arsenius. It is suspected he engraved the title page as well. Later, Ortelius supported Hogenberg with information for a different project, the Civitates orbis terrarium (edited by Georg Braun, engraved by Hogenberg, published in six volumes, Cologne, 1572-1617). Hogenberg engraved the majority of the work's 546 prospects and views.
It is possible that Frans spent some time in England while fleeing from religious persecution, but he was living and working in Cologne by 1580. That is the city where he died around 1590. In addition to his maps, he is known for his historical allegories and portraits. His brother, Remigius, also went on to some fame as an engraver, and he died around the same time as his brother.

Business lessons for human rights: borrowing evidence-based practices
The human rights field could learn a lot from evidence-based practices developed in business and medicine.
By: Bill Mawby & Theresa Harris
Previous authors in this series have made a strong case for using evidence-based approaches to strengthen human rights interventions. Indeed, in other sectors where an evidence-based approach has been implemented, researchers have found that it more fully empowers professionals in the field and provides a "bounce" in their effectiveness. The question, then, is not whether evidence-based approaches can support human rights efforts. Rather, it is how to implement systems effectively for evidence-based practice across an organization.
Many of the key best practices in this field—such as having a steering committee composed of experts and stakeholders that provide widespread training and create an effective repository of evidence—come primarily from Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM). EBM has been widely adopted internationally in the medical field, including the World Health Organization, because it promotes optimal clinical outcomes and improved quality of life for patients. However, like evidence-based strategies in human rights, EBM was not always so widely accepted. According to the pioneers of EBM, doctors, nurses and other health professionals initially resisted the approach. Some worried that it would be too hard to implement. Others were concerned with the danger of turning their work into "cookbook" medicine. These apprehensions, along with loss of autonomy and suspicion that "snapshots" could lead to faulty comparisons, sound very similar to the concerns human right workers have expressed about evidence-based practice. Over time, the concerns of the medical community have been answered through effective implementation of systems that rely on EBM as a supplement and amplifier, never a substitute, for expertise.
Fortunately for human rights practitioners, evidence-based practice is not new. We can learn much from successful implementation in other fields, which include medicine, business management, teaching, criminal justice and political policy making, to name just a few examples.
Since the introduction of EBM about 25 years ago, it has become a critical component in modern clinical medicine, informing the creation of many effective treatment guidelines. One example is the implementation of a new procedure to treat asthma at the Royal Children's Hospital in Victoria, Australia. The EBM-based approach was able to achieve an unusually high success rate of 95.5 percent during the first three months of transition. The reasons for this success are credited both to a scientific evaluation of the procedure and to a structured approach to implementing the change. Beyond the years of lessons learned, EBM is also instructive for human rights practitioners because of its specific goal: "The conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients." Replace "the care of individual patients" with the "rights of individuals and people groups", and this goal corresponds neatly with the objectives of human rights organizations.
As noted above, effective EBM systems require creating governance boards or steering committees that can oversee the development and implementation across organizational functions. This internal group is primarily responsible for overseeing the cultural shifts that may be needed for full implementation. This board or committee also oversees organization-wide training programs; the development of tools such as databases that enable professionals to store, implement and share evidence; the collection of a group of EBM experts for staff support; and the creation of user-friendly tools for evaluation.

Using models developed in the medical and business world, evidence-based approaches can be applied to human rights with proper governance, staff support, and development of user-friendly tools and technology.
There is a lot of useful foundational work that has been done on which to build such user-friendly tools of evaluation. For example, the information and communications technology (ICT) approach covers a range of tools to aid in evaluations, including the use of smartphones, tablets and web-based text mining. Many general-purpose analytical tools are available for the analysis of evaluation data. In addition, there are specialized software products for analyzing qualitative data, such as EZ-Text from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and commercial products like NVivo. The next step is to develop a platform or shell that can help human rights organizations access these tools in such a way that their own (non-IT specialists) can tune them to their specific needs similar to the way that TurboTax or Quicken can help individual tax-payers navigate the peculiarities of the tax code. While the humanitarian response field has made some progress developing standardized tools, efforts to do the same for human rights programs have generally been housed within specific organizations.
The core value of evidence-based business management—continuous learning—is shared by many human rights organizations.
These same tips are echoed in the successful implementation of evidence-based management for business processes. Similar to EBM, evidence-based management of businesses also rely on data collection, storage, analysis, access, and evaluation. While this may not seem transferrable to human rights work at first, the core value of evidence-based business management—continuous learning—is shared by many human rights organizations. In the business world, this continuous learning process is represented as a "virtuous cycle" in which the organization improves its services and goods through careful, ongoing documentation and dissemination of knowledge. This is similar to what some practitioners call "learning based management".
In this cycle, it's important to first examine the quality of the data. This is key in order to evaluate the cost of poor quality data and to help prioritize improvement project. Next, we must define performance metrics in order to identify the critical needs and support reporting of activities. Then, to make needs visible and focus resources, we connect data quality to activities and improve the overall quality of data. Finally, it is crucial to manage the flow of information in order to detect and correct issues in a timely fashion.
As medicine and business increasingly adopt human rights-based approaches in their fields, the distinctions between these various approaches to monitoring, evidence-based management and continuous learning are blurring. The most relevant examples for human rights practitioners will come from these places of most intense connection. For example, some researchers in maternal and reproductive health rights are expanding and adapting the EBM approach to include explicit human rights criteria.
These examples from just two fields illustrate the wealth of knowledge and expertise available and show that human rights organizations should not hesitate to reach out to experts from other sectors. One source for this type of assistance is the AAAS On-Call Scientists initiative, a pro bono referral service that connects human rights organizations with scientists, engineers, and health professionals. The On-Call Scientists roster includes volunteers with experience developing different types of metrics, as well as systems for data collection, management, analysis, and dissemination.
Perhaps partnerships between human rights organizations and advisors from other fields can help the "virtuous cycle" earn a double meaning as a methodology that supports, but does not supplant, the guiding principles of ethical and effective human rights practice.

Nabil Fekir Refuses To Rule Out Summer Switch To Liverpool
Nabil Fekir has refused to rule out the possibility of moving to Anfield this summer after the Frenchman has been linked with Liverpool in recent weeks. The attacking midfielder was included in Didier Deschamps' 23-man squad travelling to Russia next month after a superb season in which he scored 23 goals and provided 9 assists.
Liverpool will be hoping to complete a move for the 24-year-old before the tournament begins to prevent the fee rising is he manages to replicate his Lyon form for France.
When quizzed on interest from Liverpool, Fekir told RTL, via SportWitness: "Why not? Later there can be discussions with the president, with my entourage, to make a decision. In life, nothing can be forbidden."
If the move was to occur, Jürgen Klopp, who's attacking options are already frightening, could have the opportunity to line up with Sadio Mané, Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah and Nabil Fekir next season. The purchase of the Lyon-born attacker would also fill the void left by Philippe Coutinho, though Liverpool's form suggests there isn't one.
Fekir had refused to give anything away earlier this week when talking to RMC Sport, telling the French outlet:
"I don't know, frankly. I had a great season here, with the staff, the crowd and exceptional players. I gave everything for Lyon, we'll see for the future."

I keep reminding myself that cute is a double-edged sword.
The barn is now full of adorable little wooly creatures, and it's easy to let chores take way too long as an excuse to keep watching them bounce and explore. There's been a dramatic uptick in visitors to the farm, all wanting to hang out with the new lambs. And I don't know if evolution works quite this way, but I am strongly motivated to care for them.
The catch, of course, is that some of these lambs — the boys, mostly — are destined to become lamb chops. I'm not intending to write a defense of eating meat (not now, at any rate), but I believe that livestock are an important part of a healthy and sustainable agricultural system. And I believe that the tension — crudely, cute versus food — is important too. The personal relationship I develop with my animals is the ultimate insurance against their mistreatment, so I don't want to harden myself against the contradiction inherent in raising animals for food. We'll see if I can pull it off.

Bravo's reclamation tour began this morning. We moved both of the imminently-lambing ewes from the pasture to the barn yesterday, so there should be no lambs to temp him until some time in May. But when I released him from the tether he'd been on since last Monday, he immediately started chasing the flock; he clearly needed some kind of supervised parole.
Bravo seemed anxious to show me that fences — even 5-foot electrified fences — couldn't contain him when he first arrived on the farm. He was jumping over effortlessly, and digging under almost as easily. A number of friends with guardian dog experience suggested that he needed to pull something heavy for a while, until he developed more respect for boundaries. I was a little uneasy with this solution (cruel?), but desperation led me to get him a tire. He was strong enough that the tire barely cramped his style, but it did put an end to his Houdini act. I unshackled him after a few weeks, and he's seemed happy to stay in with the sheep since then. So today I redeployed the tire drag, hoping that it will slow him down just enough to keep the sheep out of his reach…

The previous owners of the farm kept Scottish Highland cattle, so I wasn't terribly surprised to find a horned skull hanging in the pole barn at the back of the lower field. I don't entirely understand the aesthetic appeal of displaying fragments of one's deceased livestock, but I wasn't surprised.
Then one day I looked up from splitting firewood, and I thought I saw another skull, considerably less old.
This one elevated my heart rate for a few minutes. It also got me wondering if my time on the farm would be punctuated by a macabre game of Where's Waldo. I was slightly more prepared for the third discovery, but I'll be just a little bit on edge until I'm sure I've looked carefully at all the trees.

Three days ago I made a passing reference to the brown ewe pulling a fast one on me, and then went on to conclude that she had not yet lambed. Veering toward solipsism, I decided later that it might be worth checking if the ewe was in fact still pregnant. Her udder was gone; she was clearly no longer pregnant, so where was her lamb? And so began a macabre Holmesian inquiry.
The week started with my finding Bravo snacking on the trailing half of a black lamb. I assumed that the lamb had been born the previous night and Bravo had done it in. I was a little unsettled by the fact that none of the ostensibly pregnant ewes in the pasture looked like they had recently given birth, or seemed distraught about having just lost their lamb. I convinced myself that their equanimity was attributable to lack of maternal instinct in first-time mothers, but this didn't explain the absence of blood. Things got more complicated on Wednesday when Bruce crutched the flock: we got a good look at all the potential sources of the mystery lamb, and none looked anything like a ewe who had recently given birth, and in fact most showed no visible signs of pregnancy. The only possible source of the lamb, one of the Dorset-Border Leicester crosses, was very unlikely to have produced a black lamb for genetic reasons. I was almost ready to resort to supernatural explanations at this point.
When I realized that the brown ewe was no longer carrying her lamb, I jumped to the conclusion that Bravo was a lamb-killer twice over. It seemed clear that my urgency on that late-January day was well-taken but tardy — the brown ewe had lambed outside before we got her into the barn, and Bravo had gotten to the lamb before I found it.
When I shared all these threads of the story with Bill, he came up with a coherent and satisfying explanation that tied everything together. He suggested that Monday's lamb breakfast was not a newly born lamb from the previous night, but rather the lamb delivered by the brown ewe in January. Bravo had either deliberately cached part of that lamb or lost it in a subsequent snow drift, and re-found it Monday morning. The cold conditions we've had since late January explain the fact that the lamb seemed recently killed, and Bill's explanation fit with the fact that we couldn't find a plausible mother of a Sunday-born lamb.
After convincing myself that I had lost 2 lambs to my guardian dog, I was almost happy to learn that it was probably just one. And I was enormously relieved that my instincts were somewhat vindicated, both my belief that the brown ewe was imminently lambing in late January, and that none of the ewes currently on pasture were close. A bad outcome from circumstances I was aware of feels less damning than getting blindsided.
Wednesday's crutching confirmed that two of the ewes are somewhat close to lambing, and we plan to move them into the barn on Sunday. Today, to make some room, I led the brown ewe back to the big group on pasture, and she was received like a celebrity. Not every ewe gets to star in her own true crime drama…

The thistle has launched, if not a civil war, at least a skirmish in my mind. The fields around the farm are full of dried thistle plants, and as the snow melts, more are emerging. I find them photographically irresistible, and my naturalist side is delighted to have them. Their big flowers and ample nectar draw hummingbirds, butterflies, all manner of bees, and other winged pollinators; and their seeds are favorites of finches and other birds — a wonderful addition to a healthy and enticing grassland environment.
But I am already starting to think like a farmer as well, inheriting the confirmed enmity between shepherd and thistle. Sheep don't like to graze near the spiny leaves and flowers, so lots of thistle in a pasture means less food available for the livestock. And the dried flower parts love to lodge in sheepswool, rendering it much less desirable to hand-spinners, the most lucrative market for a small-scale wool producer. Beyond these concrete drawbacks, farmers seem to harbor a less-rational animus, a fear that one ignored thistle plant will soon multiply and crowd out an entire field of grass and clover, leaving the sheep or cattle to starve.
I'm trying to remain unaligned in the thistle wars long enough to watch the plant for a couple of years (thistle is a biennial) and see if either reputation is deserved. It's also a reminder of a bigger issue: I've moved to a gorgeous rural area, with nature voluptuously present all around, so it's easy to forget that farming can be a profoundly un-natural activity. Learning to reconcile the two feels like one of my most important projects as the current steward of this beautiful place.

Bruce Clement has shorn something beyond 100,000 sheep — he says he stopped counting a while ago — and is mostly retired, still shearing for just a few farmers he's worked with forever. I'm not sure how I got lucky enough for him to take me on, but I suspect pity played a role, thinking he might guide me away from some of the more egregious mistakes of a very green shepherd. In any case, I'm grateful for his skillful work and the ancillary wisdom he shares as he maneuvers through my flock.
Today's task was not a full removal of fleece, but rather an invasion of privacy. Shepherds around here call it "crutching", removing wool from the belly, legs, and crotch of pregnant sheep so that it's easier to observe their physical state in the leadup to lambing. Lambs will also have any easier time figuring out how to nurse if they don't have to search for teats in a sea of dirty wool.
The trick to shearing, Bruce explained, is mostly in learning how to handle sheep. When I do it, the activity looks like a messy game of tackle football, with the ewe struggling to get over the goal line. Bruce turns it into something more like judo as he smoothly guides the sheep onto its backside.
And then the crutching itself takes less than a minute.
In the course of the shearing today, we got some more insights into the fate of Monday's pasture lamb, but the true crime narrative will have to wait for a day or two…

I was in a fair panic a month ago — the brown ewe was going to lamb out in the pasture because I didn't have the barn ready. Either she pulled a fast one or I seriously misread the signs, 'cause she still hasn't lambed. Veering into anthropomorphic hoo-ha, I imagine her to be frustrated at her prolonged wait, and she seems to take it out on all the new mothers. Each time I declare that a ewe-lamb pair are ready to leave their jug and rejoin the larger group, brown ewe challenges the newcomer.
I'm not exactly sure what gets communicated in these outbursts, but the fireworks usually die down after an hour or two. I take this as further evidence to rebut stereotype: sheep are individuals with strong opinions; ignore it at your peril.

Yesterday's post was either prescient or fate-tempting. When I brought Bravo his breakfast this morning, I found him eating a lamb.
I tried to take the remaining half of the lamb away from him, but he snarled and lunged at me; I returned with a T-post to help Bravo understand that his cooperation was not optional.
Once I had gotten past the chaotic moment — lamb remains out of reach of the dogs and Bravo tied off to the fence — I tried to think about what had happened and how I had contributed to the morning's disaster. It seemed clear that one of the ewes in the pasture with him had lambed overnight, and Bravo availed himself of the easy meal. I knew that Bravo shouldn't be trusted around small lambs, but I had assumed that the ewes with him were not so close to lambing. In retrospect, this was wishful thinking, motivated by already having a barn full of sheep; I was hoping for a little more time to finish the current round of lambing before the next round began. I should also have taken the smaller incidents with Bravo more seriously. He's been antsy and bored and taking more liberties with the sheep than I should have tolerated, but it's so easy to let magical thinking creep in. Bravo had been showing signs of calming down and getting more serious about guarding his sheep, so I wanted to dismiss his recent behavior as a little hiccup in a generally positive trend.
I'm now left wondering whether I have a typical adolescent Maremma who needs more structure and guidance before he emerges as a mature herding dog, or if Bravo has taken some darker turn from which he may not emerge. His aggression toward me left me pretty unsettled. I'm struggling to operate with the clarity of hindsight while looking forward.

Hard to believe but I used to play guitar. It was a long time ago, when I was still in grade school. Did I say it was a LONG time ago?
My guitar was bright pink, designed for the "feminine guitarist" which I guess was me. I loved my pink guitar with Princess emblazoned on the front, but sad to say, I wasn't a very good feminine guitarist. I took some lessons and played in school shows, but really only limped along. I much preferred listening to the Beatles in those days than practicing or listening to my own excruciatingly slow version of "El Paso."
The guitar moved around with me over the years and today we unearthed it from the attic. It was a little worse for wear, but otherwise in pretty good condition. I had already gotten rid of the amplifier a while back because it didn't work so I can't really try out any chords. Which, at least for the people I live with, is a good thing.
I plan to hang the Princess guitar on the wall in my newly painted office (just like I saw in one of those home and garden shows. What an accent piece!). There's something comforting about having old things around us to jog some old memories.
I still would rather listen to the Beatles than play myself, but I am a much more easy-going ritic of my talents than I used to be back in the day.

My heart was pounding as I raced through the halls, trying to get back to the PICU as fast as I could. My breath began to shorten and my eyes filled with tears. A dozen questions circled round and round my head. Would they make a mistake thinking she was a different patient? Would they check the stats I gave them or would they just estimate her weight, etc.? Would they risk something small not understanding the severity of her illness? Would I ever see Matilda again?
One of the benefits of living in a hospital is that you are always surrounded by people and social norms encouraged strength. I got to an elevator. It was small and full of people. Despite what I was feeling on the inside, I was required to take a deep breath and pull myself together. I did not have the energy to explain the circumstance to a stranger, if asked. My goal was to get back to Muriel. She would take care of everything, for that I was sure.
Tyler was waiting, coffee in hand, chatting with all the nurses. I began laughing. The kind of laughing that instantly tells people that an event just shook a screw or two loose. I explained everything and before my story was over I had a dozen doctors and nurses standing around me. I can still hear Muriel's voice saying "nah" in disapproval of the surgeon's brash behavior. And when all was said, she took my hand, looked me in the eye, and said, "He is going to feel like the biggest jerk when he looks at Matilda's perfect little neck and doesn't see a thing, you wait. He is going to feel foolish." I was so mad and so worked up. But Muriel was right. He would look and see, he would feel dumb, then he would get the job done, and bring her back to me. He was the best in the hospital at putting lines in babies. It would all be fine.
I drank my coffee, I brushed my teeth, I ate food sent from a friend. And before we knew it, Matilda was back. She was breathing on her own, wide awake, and simply perfect. Following her was the entire team. The surgeon himself came up to apologize, face to face. He was genuine. I could see in his eyes that he wanted to explain that the baby from across the hall was the one he worked on the night that she came, but of course he couldn't say a word. But I knew, we all figured it out. I nodded and thanked him for bringing Matilda back safely. He explained that he could not access the type of vein needed for a picc line, not even under microscope, but that he placed a broviac in her chest that would be a really good long-term solution. He did feel like a jerk. It was written all over his face, and everyone knew. But I honestly forgave him. I appreciated that he came up to apologize and the way he kept telling everyone how beautiful Matilda was melted my heart. She was so beautiful despite her illness and I loved hearing it.
The afternoon was joyful. I held Matilda while Tyler opened a bundle of mail. And there, amidst kind words of sympathy and hope from friends and family was a treasure. They were letters from third graders that made us laugh so hard we cried. A classmate from college, who I had not spoken with in years, had his class write letters to cheer us up. And it worked. I loved that Michael did something small (although very time consuming I am sure) that made a big impact. I wish I had a recording of Tyler reading the letters. It was too funny and he had the entire PICU staff leaning in the room for a listen. We kept them and would bring them out whenever the atmosphere needed to be lightened.
It was the perfect reprieve to what turned out to be a very long night and an even longer week full of headaches.


Well here I am again with another problem in our society. Those that know me, know that I love me some Mexican food. Whether it be Taco Bell, a taco truck, or my personal favorite, Thursday night tacos at mom's house. There have been periods of time where I have eaten some sort of Mexican food at least once a day for weeks at a time.
One of the aspects of Mexican cuisine I have come to enjoy is Guacamole. I love the added texture and flavor of the avocado mixed in with everything else. But I must stop at this point and talk about my least favorite food in the world, tomatoes. There is literally nothing I dislike eating more and trust me I have eaten some odd things. It is mostly just fresh tomatoes of any sort. I can handle the cooked varieties.
So here in lies my problem…for some reason many guacamole recipes have tomatoes in them. Now I do not claim to be any sort of expert on mexican cuisine but, I mean SERIOUSLY there is no reason for this, 9 times out of 10 there is salsa and/or tomatoes available for those who want the red devil on their palette. The only place I could possible understand it is if you are preparing it purely as a dip for a party and don't just want a bowl of green stuff on the table.
A good friend of mine, and fellow tomato hater, always said the 86% of teenage males don't like tomatoes. If that is true there is a good chance that a large percentage of them continue to dislike the things into adulthood. So all you aesthetically pleasing guacamole makers out there take a minute and think about what you are ruining for the rest of us.

i-Ready Disaster: No iPad, Poor Mac Support For $5.7M Palm Beach County School Assessment System Until 2018-2019
News Palm Beach County Schools
July 21, 2017 bocanews
The Palm Beach County School District spent nearly $6 Million on a system being mandated for home use. It is incompatible with most tablets and Macs. Update not expected until 2018-2019 school year, at the earliest.
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — BocaNewsNow.com has learned that Palm Beach County's nightmarish i-Ready $5.7-Million assessment system will continue its iPad incompatibility and poor Mac support through the 2017-2018 school year. Created and marketed by "Curriculum Associates" of North Billerica, Massachusetts, the Palm Beach County School District entered into a $5,701,822 contract for the i-Ready system on May 2, 2016. It runs six years. You can read a section of the contract documents below.
BocaNewsNow.com has been told by several teachers — mostly in the district's gifted program — that the system is ineffective for children identified as "gifted and talented." Teachers complain that it is sluggish, ineffective in its assessments and lacks the visual pizazz that advanced students need to stay interested. Tablet compatibility, which provides students a more personal — and faster — interaction with the system, was promoted as being available by the mid-2016 school year when the multimillion dollar contract was signed. The Palm Beach County School District has not responded to requests seeking information about a possible partial refund.
Curriculum Associates spokesperson Charlotte Fixler has not responded to multiple calls and emails over several weeks seeking comment.
The iPad issue is an issue as the system only operates effectively on Flash-based computer systems. Apple, notoriously, has rallied against Adobe Flash which has long been tied to computer viruses and sluggish behavior. Students are constantly told to use i-Ready at home, but in parts of the county where iPads and Macs are ubiquitous, using the system at home is rendered impossible — leaving the $5.7 million system vastly underutilized.
Curriculum Associates recently updated its 2017-2018 compatibility documents with the PDF below. You'll note the second listing states "Adobe Flash Required for the 2017-2018 school year."
[pdf-embedder url="http://34.205.246.110/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/i-Read-Compatiblity.pdf" title="i-Ready Compatiblity"]
BocaNewsNow.com received this internal marketing document, stating that HTML5 versions of the system will not be available until the 2018-2019 school year.
States Curriculum Associates: "Our transition to HTML5, which will be nearly complete for the back to school 2018, ensures educators and their students will have an i-Ready platform that enables ongoing innovation, including use on iPads."

Supporters of i-Ready say it is helpful for underperforming or special needs students.
BocaNewsNow.com has requested comment from school board members. We will update when comments are received.

San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) will activate a reward program for people who reduce their electricity use due to increased temperatures.
Today is 'Reduce Your Use' day.
SDG&E plan to look at a user's last five days before Monday and take an average of the highest three days to see how much the user will need to save to earn a bill credit.
Although SDG&E state they have adequate electricity resources to meet the demand, customers can reduce the strain on the electric grid by reducing use Monday between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Residents who use less electricity between those hours will earn a bill credit of 75 cents per kilowatt hour saved or $1.25 credit with enabling technology.
To reduce electricity use, SDG&E are suggesting using a portable/ceiling fan instead of air-conditioning, raise your central air-conditioning setting at a higher temperature, run major appliances before 11 a.m. or after 6 p.m., unplug chargers and power strips and turn off pool pumps in the middle of the day.
People can go to SDG&E's website to sign up for the program.

Joshua 16 Bible Commentary
<< Joshua 15 | Joshua 16 | Joshua 17 >>
(Read all of Joshua 16)
It is a pity that this and the following chapter should be separated, for both of them give us the lot of the children of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh, who, next to Judah, were to have the post of honour, and therefore had the first and best portion in the northern part of Canaan, as Judah now had in the southern part. In this chapter we have, I. A general account of the lot of these two tribes together (v. 1-4). II. The borders of the lot of Ephraim in particular (v. 5-10). That of Manasseh following in the next chapter.
Though Joseph was one of the younger sons of Jacob, yet he was his eldest by his most just and best beloved wife Rachel, was himself his best beloved son, and had been the greatest ornament and support of his family, kept it from perishing in a time of famine, and had been the shepherd and stone of Israel, and therefore his posterity were very much favoured by the lot. Their portion lay in the very heart of the land of Canaan. It extended from Jordan in the east (v. 1) to the sea, the Mediterranean Sea, in the west, so that it took up the whole breadth of Canaan from side to side; and no question the fruitfulness of the soil answered the blessings both of Jacob and Moses, Gen. 49:25, 26, and Deu. 33:13, etc. The portions allotted to Ephraim and Manasseh are not so particularly described as those of the other tribes; we have only the limits and boundaries of them, not the particular cities in them, as before we had the cities of Judah and afterwards those of the other tribes. For this no reason can be assigned, unless we may suppose that Joshua being himself of the children of Joseph they referred it to him alone to distribute among them the several cities that lay within their lot, and therefore did not bring in the names of their cities to the great council of their princes who sat upon this affair, by which means it came to pass that they were not inserted with the rest in the books.
Here, 1. The border of the lot of Ephraim is set down, by which it was divided on the south from Benjamin and Dan, who lay between it and Judah, and on the north from Manasseh; for east and west it reached from Jordan to the great sea. The learned, who aim to be exact in drawing the line according to the directions here, find themselves very much at a loss, the description being short and intricate. The report of those who in these latter ages have travelled those countries will not serve to clear the difficulties, so vastly unlike is it now to what it was then; not only cities have been so destroyed as that no mark nor footstep of them remains, but brooks are dried up, rivers alter their courses, and even the mountain falling cometh to nought, and the rock is removed out of his place, Job 14:18. Unless I could hope to solve the doubts that arise upon this draught of the border of Ephraim, it is to no purpose to mention them: no doubt it was then perfectly understood, so as that the first intention of recording it was effectually answered, which was to notify the ancient landmarks, which posterity must by no means remove. 2. Some separate cities are spoken of, that lay not within these borders, at least not if the line was drawn direct, but lay within the lot of Manasseh (v. 9), which might better be read, and there were separate cities for the children of Ephraim among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, because it proved that Manasseh could spare them, and Ephraim had need of them, and it might be hoped that no inconvenience would arise from this mixture of these two tribes together, who were both the sons of Joseph, and should love as brethren. And by this it appears that though, when the tribes were numbered in the plains of Moab, Manasseh had got the start of Ephraim in number, for Manasseh was then 52,000, and Ephraim but 32,000 (Num. 26:34, 37), yet by the time they were well settled in Canaan the hands were crossed again, and the blessing of Moses was verified, Deu. 33:17, They are the ten thousands of Ephraim and they are the thousands of Manasseh. Families and kingdoms are diminished and increased, increased and diminished again, as God pleases. 3. A brand is put upon the Ephraimites, that they did not drive out the Canaanites from Gezer (v. 10), either through carelessness or cowardice, either for want of faith in the promise of God, that he would give them success if they would make a vigorous effort, or for want of zeal for the command of God, which obliged them utterly to drive out the Canaanites, and to make no peace with them. And, though they hoped to satisfy the law by putting them under tribute, yet (as Calvin thinks) this made the matter worse, for it shows that they spared them out of covetousness, that they might be profited by their labours, and by dealing with them for their tribute they were in danger of being infected with their idolatry; yet some think that, when they brought them under tribute, they obliged them to renounce their idols, and to observe the seven precepts of the sons of Noah; and I should think so, but that we find in the sequel of the story that the Israelites were so far from restraining idolatry in others that they soon fell into it themselves. Many famous places were within this lot of the tribe of Ephraim, though not mentioned here. In it were Ramah, Samuel's city (called in the New Testament Arimathea, of which Joseph was, that took care of our Saviour's burial), and Shiloh, where the tabernacle was first set up. Tirzah also, the royal city of Jeroboam and his successors, and Deborah's palm-tree, under which she judged Israel, were in this tribe. Samaria, built by Omri after the burning of the royal palace of Tirzah, was in this tribe, and was long the royal city of the kingdom of the ten tribes; not far from it were Shechem, and the mountains Ebal and Gerizim, and Sychar, near which was Jacob's well, where Christ talked with the woman of Samaria. We read much of Mount Ephraim in the story of the Judges, and of a city called Ephraim, it is probable in this tribe, to which Christ retired, Jn. 11:54. The whole kingdom of the ten tribes is often, in the prophets, especially in Hosea, called Ephraim.

Hi everyone, I know that Kingdoms of Sileeria has been in the works forever, but I just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about it. I am still in contact with the artist and it's in the works. It might not be as fancy as the time it took would indicate, but it's still on the agenda.
Someone also requested more adventures for Challenger. That's on my brain as well. I am a very linear person and I'd like to get Sileeria done first. I haven't forgotten, but I am still not sure if it will happen for sure. I just think it's a good idea.
By request, there is a new forum up on the site here. It is freeware so I am not sure I totally trust it, but I finally have an official forum up for Challenger so yay.
Work has been busy so I am mostly writing from my mobile device. If you notice weird typos or a lack of my usual pictures and links, that's probably the reason why.
Thanks for reading. Please enjoy Challenger and all the content of interest on the website!

Daisy Group chief executive Neil Muller (pictured) has quit after three and a half years in charge, chairman Matthew Riley has taken up the CEO role once again.
Muller oversaw a number of acquisitions, including takeovers of Phoenix IT Group and Alternative Networks.
During his tenure the group was put up for sale with a price tag of £1 billion. A buyer was not found resulting in founder Matthew Riley taking full control of the company again.
A Daisy spokesperson said: "Having successfully led the significant transformation of the Group over the last three and a half years, Neil Muller has decided that now is the right time to pursue a new direction.
