Give party national outlook or else… Wetangula told
Migori County Ford Kenya party chairman, Samuel Odhiambo Migore, has threatened that members from the region will abandon the party if its leader, Moses Wetangula, fails to give it a national outlook ahead of the 2017 polls.
Speaking to Radio Ramogi, Migore said the party leadership only constitutes leaders from the Luhya region. He has accused the party leader, Senator Wetangula, of micromanaging the party which should have a national outlook.
He threatened that members from other regions will withdraw their support if the party does not listen to their demands saying they are the stakeholders.
Migore further noted that the party has not been able to make substantial move since delegates from other parts of the country have been sidelined.
On the thorny issue surrounding the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) leadership, Migore told his party leader to work toward strengthening the party like ODM has been doing before demanding an endorsement by the other coalition principals.
He said it will be unfair for the party leader to seek the flag bearer’s position from other CORD principals while his party does not command any substantial votes in the country.

Once you are a mother, you will always be a mother and at times it is quite overwhelming. It does not make any difference how old your children are and what kind of relationship you have with them. They are always in your thoughts.
There is no such thing as a break from motherhood and it is equally taxing on your spirit, soul, and body. Your children will be a source of your greatest delight, but they often are also a source of sorrows. It is always nice to be appreciated on Mother’s Day. We all enjoy extra attention, cards, dinners, and flowers; but there is nothing more meaningful than to have the support, appreciation, and love of our loved ones on a daily basis.
This is what all mothers need and want the most. If you are a mother yourself, then be an encouragement and a helping hand to other mothers. No mother is perfect, we all have our struggles, and we all strive to become better at our mothering. You can be a friend that another mother needs. Listen if she needs someone to listen to and offer advice only when she asks you for it. The least any mother wants is criticisms from other mothers veiled as “friendly” advice.
If you are a child, then make sure your mother knows you love her. You can show it by being respectful of her each and every day. She will not be always right or fair, but she always has your best welfare at her heart, so disagree respectfully. Show your love by little acts of kindness such as doing what she asks and helping when she needs help without asking. Forgive her for her imperfections, always remembering your own weaknesses.
If you are a father of her children, then take an active role in parenting your children and compliment her mothering efforts. Even if you cannot be there at home for her everyday make sure that she knows you support her and allow her to have breaks by taking care of your children when you are at home and doing your part in household chores. Do not leave her alone in her duties.
If you are her other relative, friend, or neighbour do not judge her for failings. Society at large should be more supporting to all mothers, those who are young as well as those who are older, the ones who choose to stay at home and the ones who work outside the household. Too often writers, media, and pop culture run mothers down. Everyone seems to be an expert on mothering, putting down stay at home moms in favour of the ones who have careers or vice versa. The truth is that there neither is a one perfect way of mothering, nor any one absolutely perfect mother. All mothers need respect and everyday is a Mother’s Day.
Mother's Day is a celebration honoring the mother of the family or individual, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society.

I just started my daughter at daycare this week. She is 19 months old. Tonight my husband was giving her a bath and when he was drying her off, he gently parted her privates to make sure it was dry and clean, like we always do. But she squirmed in discomfort and said "hurt". I don't want to jump to conclusions, but you can't help it. Her actual vaginal opening seems more open as well. And I may be making myself see things, but there appears to be a small crack or mark at the bottom of her vagina. She loves her daycare and I don't want to accuase the lady because she seems wonderful. Is there a medical explanation for her pain? What should I do next?

But how does it work? Well here’s a little opportunity to find out from the comfort of your sofa, on Tuesday 1st November from 7pm the Bristow crew will be watching the television and tweeting the hell out of it. You can follow @DirtyBristowMag and @probablydrunk and @bounder or the hashtag #DrBTV to enjoy it and please, join in.
Here’s our schedule:
7pm BBC One: The One Show
It’s part Nationwide, part Wogan, part TVam all crap.
7:30pm Channel Five: Real Food Family Cook Off
Real people, Channel Five? You get the deal.
8pm BBC Four: Richard Wilson Learns to Drive
I don’t believe it.
8:30pm BBC Four: Blackpool on Film
We went to Blackpool recently, it’s a hell hole.
9pm BBC Three: Don’t Tell The Bride
Should be called Don’t marry this idiot.
10pm BBC Two: Later Live with Jools Holland
With boogie woogie piano.
10.30pm BBC One: Imagine: Grayson Perry
The hairy potter.
And then the Twitter equivalent of the little white dot and the “ooooooooo” noise.
Get the beers, the popcorn and your Twitter-search primed.
Doctor Bristow’s Movie-a-go-go is showing only the best terrible movies, and invites the audience to relax, jeer and tweet along as he uses top-secret cold-war technology to project the tweets into the film itself. This has never been done in England before and he wants you to come and check it out.
The first movie is Showgirls, here, see:
Doctor Bristow is committed to serving you, the viewing public, only the finest fresh cut snark hand delivered from the Internet, this isn’t just twitter sarcasm this is Doctor Bristow sarcasm. Which is why he is bringing back Tweet Of The Week.
To guarantee only the highest quality tweeters the good doctor will be inviting the best tweeters that month to come to the next event FOR FRICKKEN FREE.
If you have seen a tweet that has the shine of the long knives, as brutal as a headbutt, or simply funny as all fuck and deserves to be nominated, simply retweet (old-style, you know so you can add stuff) with the hashtag #drtotw.
Dr Bristow himself will be checking the hashtag each week and before the next event and the three people deemed winners* will be given a free ticket to the next show. One lucky nominator (pulled from the virtual hat) gets a freebie too.
The Bristow Boys
*Doctors decision is final, he’s a doctor for chrissakes – he knows what he’s doing.
Luke Brown’s short story in issue one of the Bristow is about relationships, about why we spend time with the people we do, and sex and bars. So to illustrate it (along with the production of a special gin cocktail, more of which later) I thought we should do something together. Because you’re my best mates, you are.
Here’s a visualisation of the 300 most used words in the story:
and I want you to pick words and take photos of things that represent them, while you’re out in bars, pubs and clubs this weekend.
Phone snaps are best, don’t worry about the quality.
Deliver them to me via Twitpic (or similar) — use the hastag #bristow or @ me (@bounder) so I can find them.
Include the word you’re taking a pic of in the tweet
Add location too, if you’re sober enough to remember.
You’ve got until chucking out time on Sunday 18th July.
Do as many as you like, or can…
I’m going to use all the photos in some way to illustrate, so you’ll get a credit, but are giving us permission to use it once (online and in print). Just so you know.
In the words of the late Ron Pickering — away you go.

Jessica Simpson Steps Out in L.A. With Fiance Eric Johnson and Daughter Maxwell
Is it just Us, or is Jessica Simpson glowing?
Wearing black leggings, a black blazer and a loose-fitting sweater that covered her stomach, the star looked gorgeous and happy as she walked through Los Angeles International airport carrying her adorable 7-month-old daughter, Maxwell Drew Johnson. (Simpson's fiance, Eric Johnson, trailed behind her in a black cap, plaid shirt and jeans.)
Us Weekly exclusively revealed on Wednesday that Simpson is pregnant again, just seven months after becoming a first-time mom to daughter, Maxwell Drew.
"It definitely wasn't planned. But yes, Jessica is pregnant again," a source told Us. (A rep for Simpson had no comment.)
Since welcoming Maxwell, Simpson has been focusing on slimming down after her 70-pound pregnancy weight gain with the help of Weight Watchers. The brand refused to comment on what Simpson's surprise second pregnancy will mean for her rumored $4 million deal with the company.
"Any questions related to Jessica's personal life can only be answered by her team," Stephanie Schulman, Weight Watchers' public relations manager, told E! News on Wednesday. "We do not disclose financial details about our relationships with any of our ambassadors."
For much more on Simpson's surprise baby joy -- her new wedding strategy, adorable Maxwell's personality, Simpson's bond with her newly single mom, Tina, and more -- pick up the new issue of Us Weekly, on stands Friday!
Keep clicking to see more pics of Jess, Maxwell and Eric out and about ...

Nissan issued a recall for the 2013-2015 Altima sedan -- covering some 930,000 models worldwide -- for a problem related to the hood latch. For some of the vehicles covered under this recall, it will be the third time this vehicles have been requested to head back to dealerships.
If at first, you don't succeed...
The issue lies with the main hood latch -- the one that requires the extra-hard slam to secure. Paint can flake off this latch, and the exposed metal underneath may corrode, leaving the secondary hood latch -- the one that requires an under-hood uncoupling -- to hold the whole thing together.
The secondary latch isn't supposed to hold the hood down at speed, so there's a chance (however small) that the hood could pop up on the fly. Considering that's a great way to get into an accident, Nissan's issuing a recall to replace the potentially faulty main latch.
Nissan told the Associated Press that there are no reports of this happening, but one can never be too cautious.

SRINGDALE, MO -- A man once called crazy for moving his astronomy business from California to Arkansas is now counting his lucky stars and laughing all the way to the bank.
Scott Roberts manufactured and sold telescopes for 30 years before he decided to take control of his future.
Five years later, Roberts' company -- Explore Scientific -- is now a multi-million dollar company based in Springdale.
He says he owes it all to moving to the Natural State.
"I would say that if I had not moved to some place like Northwest Arkansas, that we would not have the success that we're having today," Roberts says. "When I look through a telescope and I see a spiral galaxy that's 35-million light years away...it's a real connection."
He uses his tools to make science come alive, whether for students or just life-long learners.
It's clearly a passion, which increases both sales, and curiosity around Arkansas and the world.

It really very rarely is fun these days. Baggage allowances have got smaller and smaller over the years, both for cabin luggage and hold luggage. You also have that dilemma of what you put in the hold and what you hand carry.
Whenever I fly with my big cameras then I hand carry them, even then it’s up to the discretion of whomever is checking you in AND at the security check point. I have carried my F350 in a Portabrace bag before and been fine, but often I am told it’s too big and have to carry the camera “naked” meaning I have to go back to check in and check the empty bag in and carry the camera by hand with no protection. Never fun. Then I just have to wrap it up in coats and blankets to protect it in the overhead.
With the advent of smaller cameras it’s a little better, but then that is voided by the fact I generally travel with a 35mm adaptor and a large amount of lenses. So a lot ends up going in the hold.
Now I try and hand carry as much as I can but you are limited. For example on this trip I am on now to India I have my 5d, one lens, my 17″, my 13″ MBP, some Lacie Rugged hard drives and I am over the limit for cabin luggage but got away with it.
Baggage allowance have dropped a lot from the early days of my traveling with kit. I used to be able to take 32kg in Economy, now this is often 20kg and excess baggage can vary hugely route to route, airline to airline. If you are in the US and flying out or flying to the US then you are lucky. You generally get double the allowance if you fly to or from the US than you do flying to other destinations. Here is an example.
When flying Business Class to the US recently my allowance was 3 x 32KG. When flying Business Class on the same airline to Delhi tonight my allowance is just 30KG. When paying excess to or from the US you pay per extra bag or anything over the allowance up to a max of 32kg. BUT other routes you pay per KG. I have just paid £600 for 20 KG excess. If I was flying to Shanghai that would have gone up from £29 per kilo I paid tonight to £44 per kilo. I have tried to find an explanation and spent ages on the phone to Virgin but nobody could explain it to me or how they could justify such an outrageous amount per kilo.
The most I have ever paid for excess in recent memory was £3000 one way from Japan to the UK. Astonishing. It actually took me a long time to get this money back from the client as they were reluctant to pay it. In the end I got it back but it took legal action and being out of pocket for 10 months.
So what happens is you have to compromise on what you can bring on a shoot? Be great if I could bring my Wally Dolly or my lights on this trip but it was out of the questions on cost grounds. Tripod wise I am lucky I am using the 5d as the Miller Solo DS 20 is compact and light. If I was shooting with a Letus and EX3 then it’s my big Vinten Vision 11 Fibertec and that is heavy. I have taken my Miller on occasions to save on costs but this has been a compromise.
Also putting valuable gear in the hold is risky. I have been lucky, so far, not to have anything nicked. But I know many who have. Also then you get delays, that happens often. Important gear doesn’t make it screwing up the first couple of days shooting. One thing I never do is put my main camera in the hold. Just too risky. Always hand carry. That’s the best advice I can give.
Will things get better or worse? Well as things have been in decline in recent years I am pessimistic. We can but hope.
One tip I have come across when flying internally in the US. South West airlines actually have a discounted media rate, it’s way cheaper to fly with them with lots of gear than American. I flew one leg South West and my excess was $50. My next leg was AA and it was $750. See what I mean?

With the Final series in sight, it’s time to take a look at some of the matchups. One integral role is that of the pest. Each team has one guy that opponents hate and home teams love. In 2010 it was Dave Bolland, but it’s 2013 and Bolland was traded… no wait, he’s just been invisible. No, this year’s rat has been Andrew Shaw, and he’s excelled at it. On the other end of the rink, we have Brad Marchand. He was with the Bruins when they won the cup, and he’s still around now, excelling at his agitator role. Here’s how these two skating nightmares match up.
Andrew Shaw #65: 5’10” 180 lbs of pure Shaw goodness
Shoots: Right Born: 7/20/1991 – Bellville, Ontario Drafted: 5th round by the Chicago Blackhawks
Playoff stats: 4 goals, 3 assists, 1 GWG, +0, 26 PIMs, 47 hits, 2 blocks, and 8 takeaways
Brad Marchand #63: 5’9” 183 lbs of smirking annoyance
Shoots: Left Born: 5/11/1988 – Halifax, Nova Scotia Drafted: 3rd round by the Boston Bruins
Playoff stats: 4 goals, 9 assists, 1 GWG, +7, 16 PIMs, 14 hits, 10 blocks, and 14 takeaways
Offense: These two players bear a fair resemblance in their stats. Both have four goals, and both lead their team in penalty minutes. Of those four goals, each had one game winning goal, which shows their ability to provide some clutch offense. The main difference comes down to assists, which is where Marchand pulls ahead with nine over Shaw’s three. While I’m counting hits as part of the defensive portion, I want to note that Shaw’s hits on the fore-check have helped create some offense. Still, offensively the advantage goes to Marchand.
Defense: Shaw comes out of the gate with a huge advantage in hits. Shaw’s 47 hits dwarf Marchand’s 14. I’m not ignoring the fact that Marchand is the more responsible player defensively. Marchand has eight more blocked shots and six more takeaways. When you add that to his +7 plus/minus, it’s easy to see that he tends to be fairly sound positionally. If these were first liners, I would have to say that Marchand has the advantage, but as role players, Shaw’s hits can’t be overlooked. Shaw’s hits, in addition to his other defensive stats, make up for his lack of positional play. Defensively, these two are a Draw.
Agitation: Shaw’s hits factor in on both sides of the puck, and most importantly, it gets on opponents’ nerves. After a talk with Handzus, Shaw has gotten a better handle on his PIM’s while keeping up his constant pestering of his opponent. Marchand has toned down his extra-curricular activities this season, but he hasn’t stopped them either. He is an expert in the art of the post whistle scrum, and his smirk can cause pacifist monks to lash out. While the Hawks have shown some susceptibility to post whistle shenanigans, I don’t think they will engage too much this time. The Hawks seem to have learned from the Detroit series that it doesn’t pay to give in to reckless behavior, and we saw a smarter performance from them during the LA series. This swings this category in Shaw’s favor. His constant pursuit of the puck and his unrelenting hits will be a lot harder to ignore than a face wash. Advantage: Shaw.
Final Judgement: DRAW! Both players have their advantages and disadvantages. Marchand is a bit more experienced and has toned down agitator role. Shaw on the other hand, has learned a few key lessons on his way to the final and has flourished as the new Hawks rat.

Sustainable Practices: Environmental Defense Fund
Pine Crest Fabrics is passionate about growing our Sustainable Practices and supporting organizations that focus on sustainability. Today, we’d like to highlight the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) for all the amazing work they’ve done for the environment. The UN World Commission of Environment and Development defined sustainability as “meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” And we believe the EDF is doing amazing work towards sustainable development.
Environmental Defense Fund
PCF is so proud to have taken part in climate action with the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF). EDF is a leading environmental U.S. organization founded in 1967 when a group of scientists and a lawyer fought to save osprey from DDT, a harmful chemical – which indeed got banned nationwide due to their efforts. Since then, they’ve expanded their focus to climate, energy, ecosystems, oceans, and health – all informed by science.
We recently learned that their 2022 Summer Match campaign has surpassed its goal and raised over $1.6 million! PCF and 3 million fellow members and activists have come together for EDFs incredible mission to power a safer, more sustainable future through science.
Visit their homepage to find out more about what this organization does and how you can get involved!
What Are PCF’s Sustainable Practices?
Pine Crest Fabrics is constantly seeking new ways to reduce our climate impact and support sustainability – environmental, economic, and social. Explore our Sustainable Practices page to find other organizations that we’ve been involved with or supported. Along with supporting some amazing organizations, we’re always focused on providing high-quality, eco-friendly fabrics from ethical sources. We are so excited to see what new innovations in manufacturing and textile production are ahead and hope to continue to supply the most sustainable fibers right to you!

The ladies at @Peace_n_loaf are teaming up with an industry magazine called, Pizza Today, in a charity event called Slice of Hope. Slice of Hope is dedicated to raising money for breast cancer awareness and is counting with the donations made at participating pizzerias in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Look for participating stores near you.
I spoke to Stephanie and Vanessa at the Organic Markert, (Isa was home sick with a cold) regarding the Slice of Hope charity event for this coming Friday, October 12. They will be open from 3-9 p.m. (their usual hours) and will be donating 15% of their sales to the Karen Mullen Breast Cancer Foundation.
You will be able to purchase your regular sized pies and if you don’t want an entire pie, you can purchase a nice sized piece of pizza with a drink for $5.00. I have eaten at @Peace_n_loaf on several occassions and their slices are not small at all.
Besides who wants to cook on Friday after a long day of work?

Mayweather Jr rules out Pacquiao bout
Mayweather Jr is set to fight Saul Alvarez in Las Vegas on September 14, but the unbeaten welterweight champion appears to have put an end to years of speculation that he will enter the ring with Pacquiao.
"Manny Pacquiao had a chance to make the fight in the past and basically, that's the best place I'd like to leave it," Mayweather Jr told MLive.
"Now, I'm feeling like I wouldn't even give him a chance... He had a chance, he blew it, so that's what it is."
Mayweather Jr had said in the past the only way he would fight Pacquiao would be if the latter were to move from Top Rank Promotions to Mayweather Promotions.
With a tussle against Mayweather Jr not on the cards for the time being, Pacquiao is set to go toe-to-toe with Brandan Rios in November for the vacant WBO welterweight title.
There had been suggestions Pacquiao would retire following a loss to Timothy Bradley and being knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez last December, but he has insisted he still has "two or three years left" in boxing.
And he is still hoping to take Mayweather Jr on one day, saying: "For me, that's important. It's going to be an important part of my boxing record."

SAN ANTONIO -- President Obama on Tuesday said his campaign is asking voters to "examine" Mitt Romney's private sector experience, saying it's his opponent's "calling card" for the presidency.
Seeking to keep the conversation on Romney's time at private equity firm Bain Capital for another day, Obama continued to tie his opponent to outsourcing.
Romney, Obama continued, "invested — made money investing in companies that had been called 'pioneers' of outsourcing."
"I don’t want pioneers of outsourcing in the White House; I want somebody who believes in insourcing," he said. "Let’s bring those jobs back home."
Obama went on to explain that his vision for the country was "making things here in the United States of America, so I want to end tax breaks to companies that are shipping jobs overseas. Let’s give tax breaks to companies that are investing right here in Texas, right here in the United States of America. Let’s put American workers back to work selling goods stamped with three proud words: Made in America."
Obama traveled to Texas on Tuesday to boost his campaign war chest. While the state hasn't voted for a Democrat in a presidential race since 1976, it has proven to be a bountiful fundraising stop for Obama, who is expected to raise about $2 million from four events.
During the speech, Obama continued to ramp up his populist pitch, telling supporters that supporting the middle class was "at the heart of the difference in this debate."
Once again, he sought to brush off critics who say he's against wealth.
"I believe in individual initiative and entrepreneurship and risk-taking," Obama said. "And I believe that the free market is the greatest system on Earth to create wealth and prosperity. But just like Abraham Lincoln said, there are some things we do better together than we do on our own."
At another event later in the day, before a crowd that included actress Eva Longoria and U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk, Obama sought to explain that even though Texas isn't a swing state, "the issues we face are just as relevant here."
"We have two stark choices, two fundamentally different visions," he said, speaking at the home of Mikal Watts, a trial lawyer. "My opponent and his allies in Congress and his allies here in the Lone Star State believe that the way you grow the economy is from the top down and with more tax cuts that benefit many in this room, including myself."

Uncle Orson Reviews Everything
March 25, 2007
First appeared in print in The Rhinoceros Times
, Greensboro, NC.
Mimzy, Hugo Cabret, lawsuit
The Last Mimzy is a good kids' movie that might have been something better.
It's worth seeing; kids will enjoy it and adults will cringe only now and then.
If you haven't seen it, and you think you might, then you should probably stop
reading my review right here. Because I'm going to be quite careless about
giving away plot points.
Though I must also say that I don't think it will make all that much difference.
As my wife pointed out, the movie would have been much better if the audience
had known what was going on, and what was at stake.
It begins pretentiously, with a bunch of children sitting in a field of flowers,
listening to their teacher tell them a story telepathically -- the concept is that
the rest of the movie consists of the images she pushes into their minds. Ho
Soon enough, though, we get past that and into the real story, in which two
kids, a gifted girl and her mechanically talented older brother -- ages about 6
and 8 -- discover some toys on the shore of their family's beach house on an
island in the Seattle area.
The toys were sent from a bleak future, where they are hoping to get samples of
undamaged human DNA so they can remake their own bodies and save the
human race from destruction by the pollutants that have corrupted them.
(We'll pretend that this plot point wasn't stolen from John Varley's brilliant
time-travel story "Air Raid" [1977, writing as Herb Boehm].)
The "toys" teach the kids and magnify their natural abilities until they are able
to built a time travel device to send some of the little girl's DNA into the future
to save the world. As a result, the children of the future are telepathic and can
fly, plus everybody's nice and spends a lot of time in meadows filled with
flowers but devoid of bees.
I'm being sarcastic, and I shouldn't be. While you're watching the movie, it
holds your attention and you want to find out what the toys are going to do to
But once your brain reengages at the end (or even, occasionally, during the
movie), it is appallingly dumb. For instance, if these people in the future have
the ability to send objects into the past, and those objects can train human
brains to have incredible powers, why can't they just fix their own DNA? I mean,
we can already fiddle with DNA now.
And if they can create toys that will manipulate the children so they become
telepathic and the little girl can fly, surely they can tweak their own genes.
Furthermore, their plan seems unbelievably luck-dependant. It's only by
chance that the little girl's tears fall on the toy rabbit called Mimzy; what if she
hadn't cried? Then the bunny would have come back without that DNA, and
the project would have failed.
(And how much good DNA can you get from tears on a stuffed animal? My
guess would be: none. But what do I know? The movie makes a big deal of the
tears, so we are surely meant to think this was the source of the DNA sample
that saved the world.)
More to the point, why send toys at all? Why not send a clear message written
in a language they knew would be understood in the target era? For instance,
if we were sending an object back to ancient Akkad, wouldn't we put in a
message written in cuneiform with clear instructions telling them what we
want them to do?
This is also tied in with a lot of mystical references to ancient Indian mandalas,
a connection that is never remotely explained.
But we're used to sci-fi movies thinking we're unbelievably stupid -- how else
would Star Wars have gotten away with "the Force" for all these years?
What I don't get is why they thought we'd believe that Homeland Security
would act the way these guys do. Oh, of course we get the standard Hollywood
political point when the guy seizing the family is asked about a warrant and he
says that the Patriot Act means he doesn't need one. Yeah yeah yeah.
What makes it laughable is at the end, when the guys from Homeland Security
watch these kids transmit a stuffed rabbit through a fantastic time-tunnel.
(There's a lame last-minute complication when the girl accidentally gets caught
in the time-bubble and her brother has to sneak in and grab her foot, adding
just enough weight that she falls out. Unlucky, and then lucky, but ... so
When all of this is done, the government guy says, Well, I guess we'll let you go
now, because the danger is over.
In the real world, there's no way they'd let these people go. These kids just
sent a bunny through time! They still have all the pieces of the machinery
except the bunny -- they still have the kids -- and these guys think they can
let them go?
We might have bought it if the writers had taken just a few moments to have
the government guy turn to his underlings and say, "Any of you think you can
report what you just saw and still keep your jobs? This didn't happen. We
came out on a false tip. We found nothing with this family. They are
But we're used to gross unbelievability in our movies. And it's a kids' movie --
kids don't know how the world works, so they aren't going to have most of
these quibbles. If I left logic holes like this in a written science fiction story, I'd
be laughed out of the field; but this is screen sci-fi, not print sci-fi, so it can be
idiotic and still make money.
The real problem, for me, is that in the end, I didn't much care. And I didn't
care because the there were no characters in the core story. The parents were
well-characterized; the science teacher and his girlfriend were good comic
characters. But the future scientist and the two kids -- the ones who actually
drive the plot -- were not made into anything resembling characters.
And that's entirely the writers' fault.
Bruce Joel Rubin is the first screenwriter credited. He has a remarkable track
record. His Deep Impact was the good asteroid movie back in 1998; he has
written arty, personal films like Jacob's Ladder and My Life, and also
commercial films like the Stuart Little sequel. Most of all, he wrote the classic
Ghost from 1990. (I hope that his in-development picture Into the Light is not a
But he was not the only writer involved. Toby Emmerich shares screenplay
credit, though all but one of his previous and in-the-works credits are as
Executive Producer or, earlier on, Executive in Charge of Music. The one
exception is his credit as the sole writer on Frequency, the lovely Dennis Quaid
time-travel movie from 2000 -- and that's enough.
Story-by credit is shared by James V. Hart, who is one of four who share blame
for 2005's sad Sahara (more below); but he also has credits for Tuck
Everlasting, Contact, and Hook. Here's where we may have our problem --
because these are all movies notable for the utter void where characters ought
The story-by credit often goes to writers who created a draft of the screenplay
that was tossed out, but which is still part of the path of development. In fact,
the first adaptation of this movie might have been done by the person with the
last story-by credit, Carol Skilken, whose first-ever screen credit this is. I'm
only guessing, but I suspect it was Skilken who first developed the project and
shopped it around Hollywood and was fired the moment a studio picked it up.
Why am I searching for blame for a movie that is actually pretty good? Or at
least good enough?
I don't even know for sure that it could have had better characters. The
original short story, "Mimsy Were the Borogoves" by Lewis Padgett, is a classic
of science fiction -- but it comes from an era of sci-fi writing when
characterization was irrelevant.
It was an idea-driven story -- and the idea was one that would not make a good
movie without sharp changes. In Padgett's story, the magical toys the children
find are sent into the past by a scientist performing his own time-travel
experiments, who used toys that his children were finished with.
He wasn't saving the world. He had no purpose. And the toys were randomly
chosen. They meant nothing. That's the point.
But that can't be the point of a movie -- too much time is invested by the
audience to have the movie's meaning be nothing but a bit of irony. So the
writers had to invent a deeper meaning -- not a philosophical one, but some
reason why the events of the story would matter in the real world.
And because it's sci-fi, and therefore heroic, it can't be personal; the kids have
to be saving the world. (The main exceptions to this rule are Charlie
Kaufman's brilliant Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Being John
Here's where I suspect James V. Hart's contribution was dominant, because
this is typical of the scripts of such character-poor movies as his Sahara, Tuck
Everlasting, Contact, and the execrable Hook. Not that Hart was the cause of
the characters' emptiness, but he certainly did nothing to fill them up.
Rubin, on the other hand, provided surprisingly rich characterization in movies
that would ordinarily not have attempted it: Deep Impact and Stuart Little 2
come to mind.
So I suspect that the reason the parents and the science teacher and his
girlfriend in The Last Mimzy are actually entertaining and believable is that
Rubin worked on turning them into something. And the reason the kids
remain empty ciphers is that nobody thought there was anything wrong with
them and therefore there was no reason to fix them up.
But there was something wrong with the way the kids' parts were written. The
actress playing little Emma was only a fair child actress (her lines sounded
read and memorized, not natural, but she was cute and sweet); however, Chris
O'Neil, who played her older brother, is an excellent child actor, and could have
brought off a strong character if anyone had bothered to write one for him.
Instead the script left them as generic, out-of-the-box, no-name children. And
that was the writers' fault.
It became obvious that the children were just stick figures when we saw them
with close relationships with their parents -- but when they find these toys,
without any real discussion or motive they decide not to say, "Hey, Mom, look
at this cool stuff we found!" Even when things get weird and scary, they still
conceal it from their parents.
There is simply no reason not to tell; and if it's the toys themselves making
them keep it a secret, there's no reason for the people from the future to stop
them from telling.
The kids behave in a way that directly contradicts their relationship with their
parents -- and with each other. They're simply doing what the writers
arbitrarily decided they must do.
Not that the adult characters were spot on; the science teacher and his
"fiancee" were horribly miswritten for a family movie. They were used for comic
relief, but most of the comedy was over the heads of children, and when we
first met them, their relationship (and the humor in it) were far too sexual to be
appropriate for a movie that children were meant to see.
Fortunately, that section is quickly over and nothing like that happens again.
But it was a misstep -- and if my guess about who wrote what is right, that's
probably to be laid at Rubin's door. Nobody's perfect. (Though somebody
should have said, "Remember whom this movie is for. Tone it down.")
So the movie is a good one, worth seeing -- my 12-year-old liked it a lot, and I
enjoyed the whole thing (with only a few winces). What am I complaining
I'm not, really. I'm just pointing out that writing a movie is very, very hard. So
many things can go wrong -- and even if you have a good script, lots of things
can be damaged or destroyed by decisions made after the script has left the
For instance, they might cast Matthew McConaughey in it, which is pretty
much the kiss of death for any movie, since he is to acting as plastic flowers
are to flowers -- he's taking up a space normally occupied by an actor, and he's
pretty in an actorish way, but there's nothing in the vase that resembles life.
(But here I am talking about Sahara again, and that's for later.)
Still, it's frustrating to see missed opportunities, and that's what we had in The
Last Mimsy. It was good enough for the moment, but ... it could have been
powerful. It could have been excellent.
At Barnes & Noble a couple of days ago I saw on prominent display a thick
book called The Invention of Hugo Cabret, by Brian Selznick.
When I picked it up, I quickly realized that most of the book consists of black-and-white illustrations. Not a surprise -- Selznick is best known as an
illustrator (The Doll People, Frindle, The Dinosaurs of Waterhouse Hawkins),
though he has also written (and illustrated) his own books -- The Houdini Box
and The Boy of a Thousand Faces.
The story is quite an engaging one. Hugo Cabret is an orphan who lives in the
walls of a Paris train station in the 1930s, where he secretly continues the
work of his vanished uncle, who tended all the station's clocks. But because
Hugo doesn't know how to cash his uncle's paychecks, he is forced to steal
Meanwhile, though, he is also trying to repair and rebuild an automaton his
late father had been working on -- a machine inside a mannequin that will,
when correctly assembled, make the mannequin's hand inscribe something on
A toyseller in the station catches him stealing, and takes from him the
notebook with all his father's drawings of how the finished automaton ought to
work; but the toyseller's goddaughter tries to help him get the notebook back.
The story is suspenseful and charming, and if it depends a bit too much on
coincidence, well, that's the way stories sometimes go. It turns out that one of
the characters is based (loosely) on a real-life French filmmaker. But it's the
boy in the station walls that we care about, and his story is well told.
I had expected that much of the story would be told through the many
illustrations. Instead, the art is used mostly to convey the setting and mood;
as often as not, the pictures take us from one place to another, while almost all
the cause-and-effect storytelling is done with the words.
No matter -- it makes for some good chase scenes!
Because the book is so thick, the price is set at about $23 -- steep for a
children's book. And as a children's picture book it is hard to work with, since
you can't easily hold up a book this thick and show it. Instead, it's most easily
read sitting on a table, where others can look over your shoulder at the
illustrations and then sit back down to listen as you read it aloud.
Or, of course, a kid could read it alone (though it would rest awfully heavily on
a child's chest in bed at night).
Is the story good enough to be worth the price? For me it was. It has a
haunted, dreamy feeling. You don't want to pay this much for a forgettable
book, but I think this story is memorable -- and worth remembering.
It's also fun to see this experiment in storytelling technique -- a reenvisioning
of the relative proportions of text and illustration. I hope every YA and school
library in the country gets a copy -- their patrons would enjoy the book, and I'd
like it to make enough money that the experiment will be repeated.
Maybe we'll even get a productive new paradigm of storytelling out of it --
something between a comic book and a picture book.
And now the lawsuit over the movie Sahara.
According to Entertainment Weekly, author Clive Cussler filed suit against the
production company Crusader Entertainment over the film version of his novel
Sahara even before the movie came out.
Since the movie flopped badly, grossing barely a third of its absurdly overblown
budget, one can only guess at why the suit hasn't been dropped -- it must
surely be more a matter of ego or personal pique than money.
As I look through Internet Movie Database, however, I can't figure out why
Crusader Entertainment would be involved. They produced Joshua and Where
the Red Fern Grows, among others, and distributed Ray and Swimming
Upstream, but nowhere in their credits is Sahara. And nowhere in the credits
of Sahara can you find Crusader Entertainment.
But I don't actually care about that. What matters to me is the sad-but-amusing spectacle of an author actually suing a Hollywood production
company for what they did to his movie.
Hadn't he seen any movies and compared them to the original books before he
signed the deal? On the contrary -- he had already had bad movies made from
his books before.
As a novelist who has also been down the road with Hollywood production
companies and with studios, I am baffled by the whole lawsuit. Apparently
Clive Cussler believed that when his contract said he would get final script
approval, he would get it.
But it was their money, not his. Why would he even want final script approval?
Did he go through the years of work to learn how to write screenplays? It's
harder than writing novels, and far more things can go wrong -- did he think
that because he wrote the novel he would have any clue about how to turn it
into a story that would work on film?
And if he didn't want to do the work and take the time to learn how to write
good screenplays, why did he think he could, as a novelist, recognize a good
screenplay when he saw one? There are precious few people who make movies
for a living who know how to recognize a good screenplay!
There are good reasons for a novelist to sue a production company. For
instance, if the movie is a hit, and the novelist is supposed to get a percentage
of profits, but the creative accounting at the studio keeps "proving" that the
movie has never made a profit (and will never make one), then you sic your
lawyer on them.
But when a $200 million budget is at stake, and the author doesn't know squat
about screenplays, the production company and the studio would have to be
morons to let him actually control the storyline. Once you sign on the dotted
line, the project is out of your control and completely in the control of the ones
with the money.
And the ones with the money weren't the producers! It was the studio
executives. They always have the final say, because they're the ones who write
the checks -- and they're the ones who lose their jobs if they write too many of
them on a picture that tanks.
Here's the irony of it all: The script was actually astonishingly faithful to the
book, considering the genre. I don't think Cussler has anything to complain
And as the producers' lawyers set about trying to bad-mouth Cussler and paint
him as a racist, sexist pig who ruined the picture and lied about how many
books he had sold, it would be good for them to remember, too: Sahara wasn't a
bad movie because of Cussler.
It was a bad movie because it was a ludicrous project to film in the first place.
Who cares about a Confederate ironclad filled with gold that sailed up the Niger
and got caught in a sandstorm which somehow lifted it up a hundred feet
above the highest level the river had reached in the past thousand years?
Cussler's readers expect a certain kind of thing from him, and he delivered it.
But the overlap between what his readers expect and what moviegoers expect is
Besides, they put Matthew Maconaughey in the lead, which is the equivalent of
putting the budget of the film in a really big toilet and pushing the lever. Since
when do you stake a budget that size on an actor who has never proven himself
to be anything remotely like a box-office draw?
I'm also amused at the fact that the producers are all exercised over the fact
that Cussler's claim to have sold more than 100 million copies of his books was
Come on, children. How could people with Hollywood careers get sucked in by
Can't you do elementary math? How many books has Cussler written? How
many languages have they been translated into? And even if he actually sold
100 million books, once that's divided among many, many titles, in many
languages, it's probably only a few million per book.
And what makes you think they'll all go to the movies?
You can't make a movie counting on readers to pay for enough movie tickets to
make back your budget.
Readers are a tiny percentage of the public. Only the Harry Potter books and
Gone with the Wind had such wide sales that they could guarantee the success
of a movie that was faithfully based on them. In all of film history, they're the
The rest of the time, the producers are supposed to make sure they come up
with a script for a movie that will appeal to people far beyond the readership of
the novel. And any plot summary of Sahara should have told intelligent movie
people (and there are many of them) that this movie had no chance of doing
serious box office.
So Cussler was an idiot to think he could control a huge-budget movie he
wasn't paying for, regardless of the contract; and the producers and studio
were idiots to think this storyline could drive a huge-budget movie, regardless
of how many books were sold.
It's a lawsuit among idiots, with a flop movie to prove it. Why they didn't just
give it up and go home and lick their wounds, I'll never know.

This will start to happen a lot now. The more shows I sign up for, the more they began to overlap! This is the nature of the business they say. Many artists who have much more experience than I do also express to me how all of the Galleries, Shops, Art Fairs and Festivals all are trying to position themselves on the best weekends and they are definitely overlapping. Summer shows, Fall shows and the Holidays events are when it happens the most! Well the time has begin. Hopefully I will choose the right shows and events to have a successful summer and fall season. Wish me luck. That's all for now.
Take Care and Stay Creative!

Not to say that I didn't mention the flowers V, 2022
Oil painting from the series “Not to say I didn't mention the flowers”, from 2022. (25.4 x 20.5 cm)
1 in stock
authentic piece of art
Support for emerging artists
7 days to return
This series of paintings on paper emerged from an exercise in observation and study of colors and shapes.
The drawings were conceived during a period of personal mourning and are the result of an attempt to find beauty despite the difficulties the artist was going through.
Once again, music was the driving force behind this creative process, and the song “Not to say that I didn't speak of flowers” by Geraldo Vandré named this series.
In a moment of social upheaval (post pandemic and the outbreak of a war in Europe) occurring simultaneously with her own personal battles, the artist turned her gaze to the simplicity of the things that surrounded her, such as the flowers, which are compulsively kept in her House.
The designs suggested by the interweaving of leaves, stems and petals refer to the explosion of life, such as burning bodies, genitalia, eroticism, which are pulsating energies of life, even though death is always lurking.

Ireland is preparing for the lavish wedding of Andrea Corr of the famous Irish pop group The Corrs, and Irish megaband U2 is set to play the reception.
The youngest member of the Irish family band will wed Brett Desmond, the son of Irish billionaire Dermot Desmond, on Friday at the Doonbeg Golf and Spa resort in County Clare. It is rumored that the wedding ceremony will take place at the scenic Seafield Church near Quilty.
U2 has been slated to perform at the couple’s reception. Corr and Bono are close friends, and performed a famous duet together, singing a version of “When the Stars Go Blue” to promote the Make Poverty History campaign. The two were even rumored to have an affair.
Two marquees have been erected at Doonbeg ahead of the Irish wedding, and the resort has already heightened security. Two men are keeping watch on the resort’s grounds, using binoculars to monitor the movements of reporters.
The Doonbeg staff has been sworn to secrecy, and club members have been told to stay away on the day of the wedding.
Desmond and Corr became engaged during a trip to Barbados last Christmas when the businessman slipped a €70,000 on the Irish singer’s finger.
Andrea Corr is the second member of her famous Irish family to wed in County Clare. In 2001, her sister, Sharon, married Belfast lawyer Gavin Bonner in Cratloe and hosted a reception at Dromoland Castle.

The Brook: Vegan Meals – Cooked And Delivered To Your House.
The Brook: yummy, healthy, ready-made vegan meals for two (at home). Choose from a variety of dishes. Order online, have it cooked and delivered, and… eat it.
The Brook began life as a restaurant in Surrey, in 2013.
For the first six years, the restaurant served innovative, locally-sourced food; pushing the boundaries of what could be created from plants. In 2018, the founders took it a step further – by opening a second pop-up restaurant in Hackney for nine months, which was named the ‘Time Out Best Restaurant’ in Hackney. The owners knew they were onto something, hence the creation of their ready meal range.
Thea Brook and her husband Andy switched to a plant-based diet after Thea was suffering with various health issues, partly due to her dairy intolerance. The more that Thea and Andy learned about plant-based diets, the more they knew it was the right move: for health, for the environment, and for compassion.
Prior to launching The Brook, Thea spent the majority of her career leading finance operations for various start-ups, but she’d always had a passion for the kitchen, with her early kitchen experiences dating back to when she was 15.
Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic forced the restaurant to close, so Thea and the team pivoted the business, launching branded freezers into retail, and a home delivery service via their website. This has seen the business continue to grow at a healthy rate, despite difficult times. “If you can dream it, you can do it,” concluded Thea.

This revelation is sure to piss Donald off. Stormy Daniels Says Donald Trump's Penis Looks Like a Mushroom In New Book The Guardian obtained a copy of the yet-to-be released book, Full Disclosure, in which she describes their sexual interactions in unfortunate, but politically important detail. His penis is shaped like a toadstool. She describes Trump's penis as "smaller than average" but "not freakishly small." "He knows he has an unusual penis," Daniels writes. "It has a huge mushroom head. Like a toadstool...""I lay there, annoyed that I was getting fucked by a guy with Yeti pubes and a dick like the mushroom character in Mario Kart..."It may have been the least impressive sex I'd ever had, but clearly, he didn't share that opinion."

Surrey Minor Hockey Association
COVID-19 Safety Plan
The virus that causes COVID-19 can be spread through close or prolonged person to person contact, and through contact with contaminated surfaces. Surrey Minor Hockey is committed to creating a healthy and safe sporting environment for our players, members, service providers, volunteers and guests. The following steps have been taken to assess and limit the risk of virus transmission:
We have involved City of Surrey facility representatives. We have aligned our safety plan with Public Health Authorities (via Sport), the expectations of the City of Surrey, the seasonal development plan and processes of respective hockey governing agencies (Hockey Canada, BC Hockey and Pacific Coast Amateur Hockey Association) in assessing areas of risk in the operations of our hockey association. We have collaborated to create policies and procedures to mitigate risk and ensure a safe and healthy sporting environment.
- The City of Surrey will be diligent to keep all arena surfaces and spaces clean.
- The Surrey Minor Hockey Association will assist to limit the number of entrants into the arena
- The Surrey Minor Hockey Association will develop on and off ice programming that best represents the needs of our members while being mindful of priorities of the Public Health Authorities.
- As a permit holder/renter/lease Surrey Minor Hockey Association will take steps to ensure that participants (our members) act in accordance with the Surrey COVID-19 policies and procedures and our Association’s Safety Plan
- In the event of a conflict between the Surrey COVID-19 Safety Plan and Surrey’s COVID-19 policies and procedures and Surrey Minor Hockey Association’s COVID-19 Safety Plan, the most stringent requirement shall apply.
Protocols for Risk Reduction
- The City of Surrey has permitted user groups access to facilities, parks and programs but only on the basis that COVID-19 precautions will be adhered to by any and all user groups and individual participants
- Surrey Minor Hockey Association will follow the respective Return-To-Sport and Return-To-Play guidelines and expectations
- It is vital that:
- no person who feels sick in any way visits any of Surrey’s facilities or parks and/or utilizes any of Surrey’s services or programs;
- no person brings a child who feels unwell or is showing any symptoms of illness to any of Surrey’s facilities or parks or utilize any of Surrey’s services or programs;
- any person who believes that they or their child may have become ill within 14 days of visiting or utilizing one of Surrey’s facilities, parks or programs 1) seeks appropriate medical attention by calling 8-1-1 and 12) reports this immediately to the City of Surrey by contacting Surrey’s Parks, Recreation and Culture Department at 604.501.5050
1) Surrey Minor Hockey Association, when applicable, will provide the City of Surrey representatives with personal contact information who may, in turn, share personal information for the purposes of contact tracing if the need arises.
2) To attend any Surrey facilities or parks or utilize any of Surrey’s services or programs, all persons taking part in Surrey facilities must consent to the same. Any member of Surrey Minor Hockey Association member (player, coach, volunteer) or service provider is automatically expected to adhere to this consent – anyone who does not will not be permitted to use any of Surrey’s facilities

On Sunday, Redskins receiver Santana Moss and Giants cornerback Corey Webster got into a little scrum.
Though it wasn’t nearly as impressive as the Yankees-Whoever They Were Playing brawl from earlier in the week, it was the closest thing to an all-out Week One NFL brouhaha.
And it came with a small price.
Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Moss and Webster each were fined $5,000 for “unnecessary roughness — striking an opponent in the head area.”
Man, we wish that there was someone like Ben Dreith working at the league office.

Few years again, mobile phones have been introduced in the market by preloading solely communication and text messaging features. seventy eight% of UK residents personal a smartphone and ninety five% of sixteen-24 yr olds. Make sure you’re gadegts are lined. Microsoft is making a play for the mass market of gadgets,” J P Gownder, principal analyst at know-how insight agency Forrester, told The Impartial. An article in Scientific American by Coco Ballantyne from 2008 – before the widespread adoption of e-readers and tablets – tried to explain the variations in studying online from reading books. Walkman or the MP3, had been gadgets which have been a should have earlier, after we had been travelling in a train, or in case of lengthy drives by the Automotive. These have been also utilized by individuals going for the morning or night walks.

The 3.5 inches of shade AMOLED contact display screen within the telephone makes the viewing of the photographs and graphics very clear. There is additionally proximity sensor in the handset along with ambient gentle sensor on the entrance panel. The multimedia options of the cellphone embody 5MP camera along with further features like flash, auto focus and digital zoom. There may be additionally a good music participant within the phone which helps a number of audio formats and FM radio in it is definitely an added benefit.
Excellent point and thanks for sharing your views. The idea that it is all cultural has a number of benefit as a result of clearly people other international locations like Guatemala aren’t enslaved to their gadgets, and human beings are adaptable. My method was on a broader scale the place devices and devices drive a huge chunk of the financial system, however I agree with what you are saying. Everyone is completely different however over time people can change and never be so reliant on their telephones or related merchandise. After all do not tell the president of a first world nation that or they will throw you in another country.

Franklin & Marshall College will celebrate 225 years of academic excellence, scholarship and service with a yearlong celebration beginning later this month.
A series of events carrying the theme "Beyond 225: Inspired for Life" will begin with Convocation Aug. 28 and culminate with Reunion Weekend in June. The celebration coincides with the academic year to mark the 225 years since Franklin College began with a class of 114 students who assembled July 16, 1787, in a brew house on Mifflin Street in the borough of Lancaster. The institution merged with Marshall College in 1853 and took its current name.
In announcing the anniversary celebration in a message to the College community, President Daniel R. Porterfield emphasized F&M's legacy of perseverance through its early years, pointing out that today, Franklin & Marshall College is a well-known liberal arts college with a national reputation for excellence in educating students from around the world.
"During this year, we will celebrate 225 years of academic excellence and scholarship, service to the community, building enduring networks of support among our many constituencies, and a commitment to propel our students to lifetimes of meaning and achievement beyond their years at F&M," Porterfield said.
The "Beyond 225" theme, selected by a committee of faculty, professional staff and students, "truly reflects the imperative that drives us to grow F&M's greatness beyond what we can even imagine today, and to contribute to the lifelong success of generations of F&M students and alumni to come," Porterfield added.
Director of Special Events and Assistant Secretary of the College Debbie Martin '72, who co-chairs the anniversary planning committee with Lisa Wolfe, associate director of F&M's Ware Institute of Civic Engagement, said the celebration is intended to bring together all of F&M's alumni, students, faculty, professional staff and friends.
"This yearlong celebration gives the entire College community an opportunity to reflect on the rich history of F&M as one of the earliest institutions of higher learning in this country and to be proud of how the College has evolved over the years to meet the needs of students in the 21st century," Martin said.
Events to commemorate the anniversary will include a Barnstormers baseball game with fireworks on Sept. 14, special gatherings during Homecoming and Family Weekend in Oct. 18-21, a 225th Celebration for alumni and parents in downtown Lancaster and an alumni event in New York City in November, and a variety of academic and arts-related programs throughout the year.
John Carbon, the Richard S. and Ann B. Barshinger Professor of Music, has written a special musical score for "Beyond 225," which will premiere at Convocation, the official start of the academic year. Brian Norcross, the conductor of instrumental ensembles, will conduct the performance.
A 225th anniversary website lists the schedule of events and information about the celebration.

This applicaation is a division of application Ser. No. 06/287,023, filed July 27, 1981 which is a continuation-in-part application of my copending application entitled "Method for Individually Encapsulating Magnetic Particles," Ser. No. 06/106,793, filed Dec. 26, 1979, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,283,438, issued Aug. 11, 1981.
This invention relates generally to magnetic particle displays and particularly to apparatus and a method for individually encapsulating magnetic particles for use in such displays. Magnetic particle displays are typically flat panel, matrix addressable display devices. The displays form images on a panel of freely rotating spherical particles, each of which is a tiny permanent magnet, dark colored in one hemisphere and light colored in the other. Thus, the amount of ambient light reflected by the particles is a function of the particle orientation which is controlled by a magnetic field. Since the magnetic particles are generally spherical as opposed to disk shaped, the particles do not need to be pivoted for rotation. It is then practical to use very small particles on the order of 1 millimeter (mm) or less in diameter or linear dimension and in very large numbers. The magnetic particles are typically smaller than can be resolved by the naked eye thus giving the display a high resolution.
Fabrication of a magnetic particle display requires combined efforts in four rather unrelated technological areas. First, one must make the spherical particle. Second, one must impart to these particles the desired optical and magnetic properties. Third, the particles must be encapsulated for positioning on the surface on which the image is to be produced; and finally, a magnetic field must be provided to control the orientation of the encapsulated particles. The method and apparatus of the present invention are concerned with and are directed to the foregoing noted third step of fabrication wherein the particles are encapsulated for placement within the environment wherein the image is to be produced. More particularly, a method is needed to encapsulate individual ones of the extremely small particles within a carrier fluid medium for rotatable installation within the display. One of the more difficult problems involved in encapsulation is the dispersal of a large number of agglomerated magnetized spherical particles in such a manner that individual ones of the particles can be separately and uniquely placed within associated ones of the capsules. Since the particles are magnetized, they tend to attract each other due to the inherent magnetic forces and thus resist separation and dispersal for placement into individual capsules. Furthermore, surface tension of the surrounding liquid prevents the particles from being separated. In other words, the interfacial tension of the oil and water interface makes it difficult for larger oil drops to separate into smaller ones. The surface tension force can be characterized as a short range force that generally operates only when the particles are in very close proximity to each other and is a relatively strong force to overcome. Thus, when the particles are so close to each other that the surrounding oil forms a continuous volume, there is usually a relatively strong force to overcome. The magnetic force, in contrast, can be characterized as a long range force that tends to pull particles together from greater distances and is a relatively weak force, especially at large distances.
One method known in the prior art for providing dispersal of the agglomerated magnetized particles is the use of mechanical agitation devices which interact with and disperse the agglomerated particles when such particles are placed in a carrier fluid such as oil. In such a method, the degree to which the dispersal is accomplished largely depends on the intensity of the applied mechanical forces with the greater applied mechanical forces resulting in the greater dispersal but also with the concurrent possibility of removing all the oil surrounding the particles. The implementation of such a method requires a certain delicacy and sensitivity in impacting the particles with the agitating means so as to create a reasonable yield of oil covered useful particles.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for dispersing individual ones of magnetized particles by magnetic means to insure that each of the particles is fully coated with carrier fluid. Another object of the invention is to provide a method for dispersing individual ones of magnetic particles to produce a high yield of particles useful in a magnetic display. Yet another object of the invention is to provide a method for encapsulating magnetic particles in order to permit rotation of individual particles within associated capsules. Still another object of the invention is to provide a method for encapsulating individual ones of magnetic particles for increasing the encapsulated particles resistance to impacting external forces and to provide for easier handling and placement of the encapsulated particles in a display. Another object of this invention is to combine with the magnetic means a mechanical stirring to accomplish dispersion of the particles and final smoothing of the particle shell. It is an object of this invention to control the conditions of the fluid in which the particles are dispersed, e.g. fluid temperature, pH, and concentrations, such that the capsule shell can be formed at precisely the moment oil drops, in which the particles are contained, are properly dispersed. A further object of this invention is to provide a method for continuously flowing suspended magnetic particles through a conduit and magnetically dispersing the particles while flowing.
Briefly, these and other objects are accomplished by a method for encapsulating magnetic particles by immersion in oil drops, mixing the oil drops in an aqueous solution and causing individual ones of the agglomerated particles within the aqueous oil solution to individually disperse by application of an alternating magnetic field. The individually dispersed particles, still under the influence of the magnetic field, are microencapsulated with at least one type of polymer by means of the addition of a polymer forming material to the oil water suspension to form a relatively hard, or solid, shell enclosing the magnetized particle within the oil. Once coated with a solid capsule wall, the effects of surface tension, or tension of the two liquid interface, are removed, and the particles are relatively easy to separate again, even if they have been allowed to agglomerate. The shell may be coated by additional polymer which provides a yet thicker capsule wall about the enclosed particle and which capsule is easily handled for placement within the magnetic display.
In a second embodiment, mechanical agitation, in the form of stirring, of the aqueous solution in which the oil drops are suspended is employed, in addition to the varying magnetic field, to assist in the dispersion of the encapsulated particles and to keep in dispersion the nonmagnetic materials such as the encapsulated oil drops without particles and excessive shell materials. Also, control of temperature, pH, and/or concentrations of an aqueous shell forming solution is provided, prior to the immersion and suspension of the oil drops therein, the conditions being such that shell starts to become formed only when the particles are properly dispersed. Also, in the case of microencapsulation by gelatin coacervation, the solution is quenched after formation of the capsule wall, to prevent adhesion of the capsules.
In a further embodiment, the suspended drops are flowed through a tube and a varying magnetic field of increasing frequency is applied to the tube interior, the frequency increasing from upstream to downstream portions of the tube to provide a continuous process of encapsulation. Therefore, the particles will be carried through regions of lower magnetic field frequencies to regions of higher magnetic field frequency, the effects on dispersion being the same as if the particles were contained in a stationary beaker and magnetic fields of increasing frequencies applied.
For a better understanding of these and other aspects of the invention, reference may be made to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the sequential steps of the method according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a side elevation view of a container illustrating the dispersal of magnetic particles while under the influence of a magnetic field according to the invention;
FIG. 3 is a simplified illustration and block diagram of apparatus for dispersing the particles according to the method of the present invention;
FIG. 4 is a simplified perspective broken away partially schematic view of another embodiment of this invention;
FIG. 5 is a greatly enlarged perspective view of a magnetic particle;
FIG. 6 is a simplified perspective partially sectioned, partially broken away, partially block diagram view of a further embodiment of this invention; and
FIG. 6A is a field vector diagram for the coils of FIG. 6.
According to the instant invention, a method is provided for dispersing oil covered magnetic particles in an aqueous medium such that each of the individually enclosed, or oil surrounded, magnetic particles is microencapsulated in a transparent solid shell that permits relatively easy handling for placement in a magnetic particle display.
Referring now to FIG. 1 there is shown a block diagram of the steps used in the encapsulation method of the present invention. The method is useful with a variety of differing magnetic particle types and, in the preferred method of the present invention, the particles used were of a strontium ferrite material enclosed in a polyethylene binder forming a spherical particle approximately 200 μm in diameter. The magnetic coercive force of the strontium ferrite is approximately 2000 oersted. The particles are preferably colored and encapsulated in a transparent shell for use in a magnetic particle display. Typically, one hemisphere of the particle is colored with a dark color and the remaining hemisphere of the particle is colored with a contrasting color. Various methods of manufacture of the particles and the coloring thereof are known in the art and the details thereof are not discussed herein. Block 10 of the diagram illustrates the first step of the method wherein the magnetized particles are first immersed in a carrier fluid such as oil or other oily fluids such as hydrocarbons, fluorocarbons, polysiloxanes, or esters. The purpose of the oil is to provide a fluid which surrounds the particle and permits rotation of the particle under the influence of a magnetic field. The oil which surrounds the particle is sometimes referred to in the art of microencapsulation, as the "internal phase." This is in contrast to another fluid medium in which the oil drop will be suspended and which is referred to as the "continuous phase." The oil is generally one of many transparent liquids that are not miscible with water, and, in a preferred method, a silicone oil having a viscosity of 5 centistokes (cst.) is used.
Once immersed in the oil, the particles are then suspended in the continuous phase which, in most cases, is an aqueous solution as shown in the second step of the method as noted in block 12. The aqueous solution in this embodiment is a mixture of water and an additional appropriate amount of surfactant which is used to reduce interfacial tension. The surfactant in a preferred method is L77 surfactant available from Union Carbide Chemicals, New York, and it is applied at a concentration of 0.03% in water. The immersed particles are transferred to the water solution with an eye dropper or pipette and dropped into the water. These drops are generally a few millimeters in diameter and may agglomerate into larger drops.
The suspended drops within the water solution are then exposed to a magnetic field as noted in the third step of the method in block 14. An alternating magnetic field having an amplitude of approximately 300 oersted, or gauss, is preferably used at a frequency of approximately 150 Hertz (Hz). This frequency has been found sufficient for the initial dispersion in the case of the aforementioned materials. For higher viscosity oils, such as paraffin oil, the desired frequency is lower, such as, for example, 50 Hz. After the applied magnetic field has caused the larger drops to break up into smaller ones, the frequency may be increased and the process repeated, causing the drops to become smaller after each change of frequency. The frequency may be increased in discrete steps, in which case each step should represent a frequency increase of not more than 50% in order to maintain stability within the dispersal process. Moreover, in the case of discrete frequency changes, the applied magnetic field should be maintained at each frequency for at least two hundred cycles before being switched to a higher frequency. Gradual increase of the frequency is necessary for dispersion of the oil drops because at each respectively differing frequency, only oil drops of a particular size range will disperse into smaller drops. For example, at 600 Hz frequency, drops of 5 cst. silicone oil of approximately 2 mm diameter containing hundreds of magnetic particles will not disperse. For silicone oils having a viscosity of 5 cst. a frequency of approximately 800 Hz will typically be reached before the drops become so small that most all of the drops contain but one magnetic particle. Alternatively, the magnetic field dispersal process may be varied to control the size of the drops such that any desired average number of particles are enclosed therein.
After dispersal by the magnetic field to the point where the desired average number of particles are contained within each drop, the microencapsulation step of the method may begin as noted in the fourth step of block 16 in the diagram. During the encapsulation process, the magnetic field is maintained at the highest frequency last used to disperse the drops in order to maintain the drops in a dispersed relationshiup during the microencapsulation process. The microencapsulation step is begun by application of a polymer coating on the drop surface between the oil and the water. In the preferred method, acid chlorides are first added to the oil to form the internal phase. The internal phase consists of a saturated solution of sebacoyl chloride, azelaoyl chloride, and trimesoyl chloride in silicone oil. After the magnetic particles contained within the internal phase have been sufficiently dispersed and are ready to be microencapsulated, a sufficient quantity of diethylenetriamine is added to the aqueous solution to reach a final concentration of approximately 5%, and as low as 0.5%, with the result that an interfacial film of polyamide is thus rapidly formed. The polyamide polymer coating is formed due to the interfacial reaction between the amine in the water and the acid chlorides in the oil. The interfacial reaction is accomplished, or solid film is formed, in less than a second. The resultant polymer coating, although encapsulating the entrapped particle within the oil carrier fluid, is usually relatively thin and at this point may not withstand the rough handling encountered in further processing. Accordingly, it may be necessary to optionally build up and increase the thickness and strength of the capsule by the application of an additional coating in the microencapsulization step of the method.
Various microencapsulation techniques are known in the art and are disclosed, for example, in the text "Microcapsules and Microencapsulation Techniques" by M. Gutcho, Noyes Data Corporation, Park Ridge, N.J. (1976). During the latter optional portion of the microencapsulation step, the magnetic field force may be substantially reduced inasmuch as dispersion may be more easily maintained due to the previously applied polymer coating which enables redispersion of the agglomeration of the enclosed particles.
Once microencapsulated, the magnetic particles are entrapped in transparent shells having at least one polymer coating. The capsules are sufficiently strong so as to withstand normal handling for placement into a magnetic particle display. The placement of the particles in the display may be done in any well known fashion such as by adhesion onto a substrate.
FIG. 2 illustrates a side view of a container 18 such as a glass beaker which is used to hold the aqueous solution 20. More clearly illustrated is a particular one of the oil immersed drops 22 having a number of particles enclosed therein. As the drop 22 gravitates downward within the container 18 and comes within the influence of a magnetic field shown applied about the container, the single drop 22 disperses into a plurality of smaller drops 24 each having enclosed therein a single particle. The particles are suspended in the solution and exhibit apparently random motion due to the influence of the applied magnetic field.
FIG. 3 illustrates the apparatus used in the dispersal and encapsulation process of a preferred method. An eye dropper 26 having a quantity of oil immersed particles therein is activated to cause a number of the immersed particles to form into the drops 22 which are dropped into the container 18. The container is used to hold the aqueous solution noted hereinbefore in the operation of the preferred method during dispersal and microencapsulation. As also noted hereinbefore, a selected amount of surfactant is added to the water in combination with the oil drops containing the enclosed particles. An alternating magnetic field is applied to the aqueous solution by a means of a field coil 28 driven by a variable audio frequency (AF) generator 30 whose output is coupled to a variable power amplifier 32 whose output drives the coil. The field intensity and frequency are conveniently varied for purposes of implementation of the inventive method by conventional means in adjusting the generator 30 and the amplifier 32.
Although the dropper means have been illustrated as an eye dropper 26, it will be appreciated that alternate means such as a pipette, spatula, or a spoon may be utilized in the method of the present invention to achieve economies of scale in production and efficiency.
Referring to FIG. 4, container 40, in this embodiment a 150 ml glass beaker, contains a continuous phase mixture 41 of 60 grams of 2% solution of 290 Bloom, pig-skin gelatin and 0.15 cc of 40% sodium hexameta phosphate. The mixture is initially at an elevated temperature, e.g. in a range of 50° C. to 55° C., and is cooled by natural convection of ambient air, with the help, if necessary, of temperature control coil jacket 42, which is wrapped around container 40, at a rate of 0.8° C. per minute to a temperature of 41° C. Temperature control 44 is manually or automatically adjustable to control the cooling rate provided by jacket 42, and provides the coils in jacket 42 with a coolant fluid in a manner well known in the art. Thermometer 46 is used to monitor the mixture temperature and is removed after the temperature of 41° C. is reached.
Drop 48 is of an internal phase oil mixture 53 containing magnetic particles 50, each drop 48 containing in the order of 500 particles. Six drops 48 are dropped into mixture 41 as by an eyedropper 52, or other drop forming member, after mixture 41 has reached a temperature of 41° C. The oil mixture 53 is a mixture of, by weight, 4 parts paraffin oil and 1 part kerosene, with 5% Trimesoyl Chloride and 4% Alrosperse 100, a surfactant manufactured by the Ciba-Geigy Corporation, Dye and Chemical Division, 1410 Swing Rd., Greensboro, N.C. 27407, by weight, added to the mixture of paraffin oil and kerosene. The particles 50 are 120 μm diameter spheres of a polyethylene and ferrite magnetic material, silver coated on one hemisphere 50a, FIG. 5, and dark colored on the other hemisphere 50b, and are magnetized to saturation, and have been pre-soaked for several hours in the oil mixture 53.
A stirrer 54 has a motor 56 which turns shaft 58 at approximately 1000 rpm. A six blade turbine 60 is affixed to the end of shaft 58 and the diameter of turbine 60 is preferably greater than 70% of the diameter of container 40. Shaft 58 and turbine 60 are of a nonmagnetic dielectric material such as glass.
A field coil 62 having electrical leads 64, 66 is placed about jacket 42 and container 40 and is coupled through lead 64 to power amplifier 68 through on-off switch 70. Feedback circuit 72 is placed across the input and output of amplifier 68. Capacitance 74 is coupled between lead 66 and ground. Resistance 76 is coupled to lead 66 and, through switch 78 and capacitance 80, to ground. Switches 70, 78 may be of solid state construction, with appropriate well known circuitry for their operation. Thus connected, amplifier 68 acts as an oscillator, having a first oscillatory or resonant frequency of 430 Hz and first power output to coil 62 to provide a magnetic field strength of 400 gauss in container 40, when switch 70 is closed and switch 78 is open. With switches 70, 78 closed, a second oscillatory or resonant frequency of less than 100 Hz and a second power output to coil 62 to provide a magnetic field of less than 100 gauss in container 40, are provided. The circuit components to obtain these frequencies and fields are as follows: audio amplifier 68, 750 watts; coil 62, 60 mh, coil resistance 5 ohms; resistance 76, 5 ohms; capacitance 74, 2.3 μf.; capacitance 80, 20 μf.
After stirrer 54 has been operated for a brief period, e.g. a second, switch 70 is closed, switch 78 being open, to provide a magnetic field having a frequency of 430 Hz and a field strength of 400 gauss in container 40 for about one second to disperse particles 50, drops 48 becoming smaller, and particles per drop becoming fewer, viz, one particle per drop. Then 0.6 cc of 20% acetic acid solution 84 is injected into container 40, using syringe 82 or other volumetrically accurate fluid dispenser, changing the pH of the mixture in container 40 from approximately 5 to 4. This change results in the formation of two phases, phase one being a dilute solution of gelatin in water, and phase two being a coacervation which contains a much higher concentration of gelatin than phase one. The coacervate gathers on the surface of the oil drops and forms the shell of the capsules.
Switch 78 is then closed to connect resistance 76 and capacitance 80 in the amplifier 68 circuit, reducing the magnetic field frequency to less than 100 Hz, and the field strength to less than 100 gauss. At this point, the capsule walls are initially rough, but become smooth after about 11/2 minutes of stirring by turbine 60 in combination with the weaker magnetic field. The turbine 60 is operated continuously from its start point in the cycle.
The required power and frequency of the magnetic field to obtain dispersion depends upon several factors. If particle 50 sizes are larger, the required power and frequency to field coil 62 are decreased; if interfacial tension between the oil mixture and the water in the continuous phase mixture is increased, the required power is increased, while the required frequency is unchanged; if viscosities of the internal and continuous phases are increased, the required power is increased and the required frequency is decreased; if particle magnetic intensity is increased, the required power may be decreased and the required frequency is unchanged. The magnetic field can have a dc component, as well as an ac component, and the dc component can be generated by a permanent magnet.
The previously described embodiments are batch type embodiments wherein the microencapsulation takes place in situ. To provide a uniform magnetic field throughout the batch, as the batch size is increased, the field power required is also increased. In the next described embodiment of this invention, the power requirements are minimized since only a relatively small field area is required for a relatively high rate of encapsulated particle output.
Referring to FIG. 6, continuous phase reservoir 90, which is maintained with a continuous phase of a mixture 41 having a composition as in the previous embodiment, has outlet 92 which feeds horizontal pipe section 94. Diagonal elongated tube 96 connects section 94 through pipe section 93 and spherical chamber 98, which is provided with outlet 100 having manually or automatically adjustable valve 101 to control the flow volume in outlet 100, and, as will be understood by those in the art, in tube 96. Section 94 is provided with temperature regulating coil jacket 42 wrapped around portion 95 of section 94, and temperature control 44 is coupled to jacket 42 to control the continuous phase temperature in the manner of the FIG. 4 embodiment, reducing the temperature from an initial range of about 50° C. to 55° C., which is mixture 41 temperature as it enters portion 95, at a rate of 0.8° C. per minute as the mixture flows through portion 95 to a temperature of 41° C. as the mixture leaves portion 95.
Field coils 102, 104, 106, 108, 110, 112, 114 are longitudinally spaced along, from upstream to downstream, respectively, and are formed around tube 96, each providing a varying magnetic field uniformly across the tube 96 section encircled by the respective coil, according to the power and frequency supplied to each coil by Frequency and Power Control circuit 116, to which each coil is separately coupled. In this embodiment, the frequency of each coil increases by a factor of preferably less than twice the next previous upstream coil, coil 114 having the final frequency in the range of 1 kHz in this embodiment, and the field strength provided in tube 96 by each coil being as high as possible without demagnatizing the particles 50, and in this embodiment being in the 1.0 kgauss range, for the mixtures 41, 53 compositions of the embodiment of FIG. 4, which compositions are also used for the embodiment of FIG. 6.
Coils 102, 108, 114 are wound to provide an axial magnetic field in tube 96 in the z direction, FIG. 6A; coils 104, 110 are wound to provide a magnetic field in tube 96 in the y direction, FIG. 6A, which is perpendicular to the z direction; and coils 106, 112 are wound to provide a magnetic field in tube 96 in the x direction, FIG. 6A, which is perpendicular to both the z and y directions. Circumferential coil gaps 118 are placed in coils 104, 106, 110, 112, and are circumferentially positioned to obtain the aforementioned field directions. In this way, mutual inductance between adjacent coils is minimized, reducing the problem of driving these coils electronically.
Internal phase mixture reservoir 120 is maintained with an internal phase mixture 53 composition of the FIG. 4 embodiment, and has outlet 122 feeding pipe 124, in which is placed adjustable flow rate metering pump 125, and which has adjustable drop rate drop forming nozzle 126 at its end, the drop rate being controllable by the flow rate in pump 125, and being selected according to the flow rate in tube 96 to obtain the desired concentration. Valve 101 in outlet 100 is manually or automatically adjustable to control the flow rate in tube 96. Port 128 in tube 96 downstream of portion 95 receives, in fluid tight relation, nozzle 126 from which oil drops 48 containing particles 50 are admitted into tube 96, which drops are continuously dispersed into smaller drops containing fewer particles by the varying magnetic fields of coils 102-114, until only one particle per drop is obtained, at which point the drops enter chamber 98.
Acetic acid reservoir 130 is maintained with a supply of acetic acid solution 84 having the composition of the FIG. 4 embodiment solution, and has outlet 132 feeding into pipe 96 through adjustable flow rate metering pump 133 which is placed in pipe 134, which has an adjustable nozzle 136 at its end, the adjustments of pump 133 and nozzle 136 controlling the flow of acetic acid solution into port 138 which receives, in fluid tight relation, nozzle 136 and is formed in the wall of tube 96 between coils 112, 114, or futher upstream in tube 96, so that the acid will be well mixed with the rest of the continuous phase solution by the time the mixture reaches coil 114. The flow rate of acetic acid through nozzle 136 may also be controlled by reservoir 130 pressure, the acetic acid flow rate being adjusted according to the flow rate in outlet 100. As in the embodiment of FIG. 4, the addition of the acid solution results in coacervation, the coacervate coating the particle containing oil drops.
The shell walls thus formed become smoothed as they pass slowly through chamber 98. Stirrer turbine 60 is driven by motor 56 through driveshaft 58 maintaining the capsules separated while the capsule or shell walls become smooth. Thus, reagglomeration is prevented by the turbine 60. Motor 56 is mounted exteriorly of chamber 98 and shaft 58 extends in fluid tight relation through opening 140 in the wall of chamber 98, and rotates at about 1000 rpm. Driveshaft 58 and turbine 60 are of a nonmagnetic dielectric material such as glass. Cooling jacket 144 is placed around outlet 100 and is coupled to Temperature Control 146, which provides jacket 144 with cooling fluid to bring the temperature in outlet 100 to about 10° C. causing the coacervate to become a solid gel. The encapsulated particles exit chamber 98 through chamber port 142 into outlet 100, where they are cooled and piped to the next step in preparing them for their ultimate use.
Thus an embodiment is provided having relatively small coils and correspondingly lower power requirements to provide a high volume rate of encapsulated particle output. Power requirements can be further reduced by utilizing ferromagnetic cores in the coils 102-114.
Thus there may be seen that there has been provided a novel apparatus and method for dispersing and encapsulating magnetic particles to insure placement of a desired average number of particles within an associated capsule.
Obviously, many modifications and variations of the invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.

Like a good torch song sung by an unknown pro, the Davosa Pares Chronograph reminds you that a good thing done well can make you feel warm and tingly even if it’s not a genuine Billie Holiday opus.
The Pares ref. 161.446.44 is Valjoux 7750 driven chrono with a great deal of class. Assembled in Switzerland from internationally sourced parts, this stainless steel chrono is classy without being too fussy and guilloched without looking like a gingerbread house.
The 7750 is a mid-priced chrono workhorse and, thankfully, Davosa has decided to price their chrono, $1645 retail, at an acceptable level while still maintaining a high quality set of components. The case is polished to a high sheen and the rear display back exposes a clean, non-modified movement and a signed rotor. The company, represented in the U.S. by David McCready, estimates a 5 ATM water resistance, which might be a bit much. We could see washing dishes in the Pares but a dunk may do it in.
In terms of aesthetics, the Pares is acceptably massive and also acceptably decorated. The face, a light silver, features blue raised numerals and sub-second markers along with a small date window at 3 o’clock. The registers, at noon and six o’clock show elapsed minutes and hours while the register at three o’clock displays a running seconds hand. The main seconds hand displays elapsed seconds when activated.
The main hands are glazed with lume that lasts about two hours after a full charge. All of the hands are blued and polished but the hour and minute hands could have been slightly more delicate to match the rest of the face.
The crown and pushers are given a starburst coin-edge treatment and are very easy to grab. The buckle on the signed leather strap is heavy and the band itself is an attractive mottled blue with a softer calfskin on the inside.
Over the month that we tested it, the piece lost about 10 seconds per day and held a about 20 hours reserve after a few days of heavy wearing. The chrono function was crisp and the crown was easy to pull out and turn. The buttons felt slightly hollow but the push was quick and clean.
The Pares is a nice way to join the ranks of Valjoux 7750 owners. The 7750 is a wonderful movement with an amazing rotor spin that actually causes the first-time wearer to jump in surprise. When the Pares’ rotor really starts spinning, the entire piece starts to gimble and gyre.
In short, Davosa has created an interesting addition to any chrono lover’s collection.

“On the road again…” Without fail I sing that out loud when I put the 4-Runner in drive with the Airstream in tow. This trip, Ralph was spared (left behind to continue shaping young minds at COCC), but I had Raven by my side as I embarked on a long-ish journey through the Southwest.
Among other activities, I was researching the lesser-known fossil dig sites of the West for a magazine article. My first order of business was to study up on the geology of Nevada. First stop, Reno…and the nearby Nevada State Museum in Carson City.
Despite the terrible online reviews, I overnighted at the Silver Sage RV Park in Reno. While it’s no magical oasis (and, admittedly, it is located in a fairly sketchy part of town), the sparse Silver Sage is perfectly clean(ish), perfectly safe, (inside locked gates), and perfectly situated (directly across the street from the Peppermill and the stiff Oceano bar martinis). My RV neighbors—the ones that appeared in daylight—seemed like friendly young vagabonds.
The Nevada State Museum houses an assortment of rocks n’ fossils and displays several dense, boring placards bearing the history of The Dawn of Life (precambrian eon to the cenozoic era). The Bones of Interest include a fabulous Imperial Mammoth—found in the Black Rock Desert many years before Burning Man—and an Ice Age horse discovered at Pyramid Lake, posed dramatically against a fiery landscape.
Alas, the massive mammoth is a cast made from the original bones. This ruins it for me. I inquired about the location of the real mammoth, but the character stationed at the front desk was cagey with his answer. (“In storage around here somewhere,” he hedged.)
Other exhibits at the museum include stuffed area wildlife, the ubiquitous firearms display, a replica ghost town, and an intriguing fake mine shaft in the basement (uncomfortable going for those taller than five-foot-six).
It’s no surprise that a museum in the Silver State dedicates a lot of real estate to the process of coining—from the Comstock Lode mines, to the mills, to the mint. The “old half” of the museum is actually housed in the old Carson mint, where the first coin (a Seated Liberty Dollar) was struck in 1870.
Numismatists will love the cool coin collection and "Coin Press #1"—which today still strikes medallions at the rate of six per minute. (Buy a blank in the museum store and watch it pressed on the historic machine on the last Friday of the month.)
The museum is easy to find, right on Carson street in the middle of the old casino section across from the ancient Nugget. Explore the residential section behind the museum and you’ll stumble upon the neoclassical Governor’s mansion. I’m told Sandoval actually lives there. I hung around for a few minutes hoping to catch a glimpse of him coming out in his bathrobe for the Sunday paper, but no joy.

This is neat...my husband was trying to creat such a system for me using Al's chart as a guide. But of course, he did not have the time yet. Will show him this. Thanks for sharing, Ross.
Question: What day should I put at the top? Day 1 or day 6?

Don't use both parts. Either your just starting or your continuing. All you need fill in is either the total weekly amount your taking or the daily amount your taking and check the appropriate box and set what your current INR is and calculate.
This calculator just take the guidelines (such as I've always used from this site http://www.aafp.org/afp/990201ap/635.html) and uses it as the basis for it's calculations. I've found it helpful. Not as much brain work. ;)
seems very close to my dose. Given I don't know my factors for VKORC1 or CYP2C9 genotype I tried a few options and found my does in the middle of the various ranges generated by the various settings for these.

Lightning 10-pack ticket packages on sale Friday, Aug. 7
From the team:
The Tampa Bay Lightning announced that 10-packs for the 2009-10 season will go on sale tomorrow, Aug. 7. There are three different packages for fans to choose from with each one starting at $79, the equivalent of $7.90 per game.
“Our mini-plans are the perfect way for fans who can not commit to a full or half season package to still follow the team in 2009-10,” Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Brad Lott said. “This year’s schedule has allowed us to put together some great packages with some outstanding games at an affordable price.

After a dismal road trip to Riverside College and two tournaments at Fullerton College and San Diego City College, the Cerritos College women’s volleyball team came home and got a win over Long Beach City College in front of the home fans.
The Falcons, paced by Nicole Spigner (nine kills, 18 digs), overcame slow starts in the first two sets and managed to eke out a straight set victory over the Long Beach City College Vikings in front of about 100 people at the Cerritos Falcon Gym.
Cerritos College won by scores of 25-20, 25-19, and 25-18, respectively.
“It was a tough start,” Spigner said. “We just shook it off and regrouped, yet we didn’t want to make any mistakes and we had to just put the ball down.”
Middle blocker Kayley Stephens, who had five kills on the night, said, “We needed to work together, and we did. For the first two set points, we just needed to put the ball down.”
Head coach Teresa Velazquez-Ortega said, “[The players] were nervous at the start. They just needed to pick up the game the way they should, and they did.”
A road match is in the books for Cerritos College against Mt. San Antonio College on Wednesday, Oct. 7.
The next match at home will be on Friday, Oct. 9 at 6 p.m. against Los Angeles Harbor College.
The Falcons wore pink jerseys in this match in honor of breast cancer awareness month, and the pink jerseys will be worn at home all throughout the month of October.

Hey Agyness! What's shakin'? Nice glasses! I got my hair cut in a demented pixie style today, much like yours. Except mine is brown. But I guess your hair is brown now too, so never mind. I like it a lot, but I feel pressured to wear cute dresses and girly designs so I can avoid looking like a tomboy or a butchdyke. Maybe I'll start wearing bows in my hair? Bye Agyness, it was nice talking to you. And by talking, I mean mindlessly blathering on.

Despite running for only 90 minutes, Tu Pug Imatuy (‘The Right to Kill’) delivers the experience of an epic. It manages this partly by alternating between quiet, lingering moments, and thrilling, kinetic sequences. But more importantly, the film exhibits a layered story—it is, at once, an ethnographic documentary, a primer on pressing social issues, and, without glorifying violence, something of a survival adventure.
Note: this film analysis includes details of plot, or ‘spoilers’. It is written primarily for those who have seen the film.
Three groups populate Tu Pug Imatuy: the lumad (the indigenous, non-Christian and non-Muslim peoples of Mindanao), government soldiers, and rebels. (Although the last group barely appears in the movie, they represent a major interest underlying the political setting of the film.) These groups and their ‘costumes’—the colorful textiles of the lumad, the standard fatigues of the soldiers, and the alternative uniforms of the rebels that come complete with Communist insignia—comprise all the people that is seen in the film. It is patently and completely a story about the troubled Philippine South.
The lumad are the protagonists in this film. The first act is an immersion into a Manobo family’s way of life and their world-perspective. The stories that Dawin (played by Jong Monzon) tells his children reveal a deep appreciation for the natural abundance of their people’s ancestral homeland. When, by a stroke of luck, Dawin and his wife Obunay (Malona Sulatan) captures a wild boar, they immediately talk about sharing the bounty with their neighbors and their datu (chieftain)—demonstrating a strong sense of community, despite their apparent poverty. Of course, it appears that material poverty does not worry them much; indigenous peoples have this manner of belief that as long as they are secure in their land, they are confident that nature will always provide for their needs.
Several scenes paint the picture of a family content with the simplicity of their life. The couple, at night in their kitchen, happily recalls the events of the day, bonding over the bounty of the hunt. A tragedy befalls them soon afterwards, however; their youngest child, Awit, is struck with high fever. Dawin rushes the boy to the river to try and relieve his temperature with cool water, but it was not enough. Obunay’s subtle expression of grief at the sight of Dawin returning with their dead child, the tears falling wordlessly from her eyes, provides the film’s first moving moment.
After the family buries Awit on the mountain, they tell themselves that the child is now one with nature—a method of coping with grief that further illustrates their affinity with the environment. The child’s grave is marked not by a cross (of course, they are not Christian), but by rocks and a frond with flowers.
What comes next is a greater tragedy. Tu Pug Imatuy turns to the current issues faced by the lumad in Mindanao, the problems one could read about in a broadsheet in Manila without giving much thought to, but which in this film is made present and vivid.
Dawin and his children encounter a squad of soldiers on their way home; needing a local guide on their mission to engage rebels, the soldiers forcibly take Dawin away from his children. (Dawin was carrying a container of mongo seeds then. The soldiers spill these onto the ground, before forcing Dawin to pick them up to be counted one by one, mocking him, “Do you know how to pray the rosary?” It was a quick remark, easy to miss, but it concretizes the social gap between the presumably Christian soldiers and the non-Christian lumad.)
The soldiers find Obunay, and abduct her as well. They subject the couple to tremendous abuse, including stripping before marching them through the forest. The couple is also subjected to servitude, forced to gather food and cook for dinner. The abuse, impunity, and oppression is suffered by all of the tribe, not just by this particular couple: in Dawin’s earlier visit to the datu, he learned that the soldiers confiscated and cooked all of the chieftain’s chickens.
All the cruelties that Dawin and Obunay suffer in the hands of the soldiers are seemingly random, until, at one point in their march, Sgt. Villamor (Jamee Rivera) shoves the couple’s faces onto the mud, mumbling that it was for the deaths of their comrades in an ambush the week prior. It does not absolve them of their atrocities against the innocent natives, but it does complicate their characterization, because until this point in the story, the soldiers were the pure antagonists, the unredeemed evil—but here, they are unveiled as sufferers themselves of the war they are tasked to wage. The pain of losing their brothers is part of the reason driving them to inflict pain on others.
But Tu Pug Imatuy, in portraying the lumad as the story’s protagonists, renders it clear that it is the lumad who suffers the most. Just before Dawin is abducted by the soldiers, he tells his children the story of the ‘Sagasa’, a story that was itself passed onto him from his father. The lands of their forefathers were once rich with strong trees, the story goes, until the loggers came and cut them down. The loss of the trees destroyed their environment and led to a famine. The people, growing desperate, went out to hunt. They saw a giant boar which they immediately attacked and chopped into pieces; it was too late when they realized that what they had killed was one of the loggers.
Dawin shares this cautionary tale to his children as a story to be passed on, a heirloom, a story destined to be part of their people’s identity for generations to come. And this story of senseless, tragic violence is also the prime metaphor for Tu Pug Imatuy itself: the plight of a people and a family, trapped between the interests of outsiders to their land. In this film, the lumad suffer in the crossfire between soldiers and rebels; or, taking a different aspect, between Christians and Muslims, or capitalists/imperialists and communists. In each of these dimensions, the lumad is the original settler, the party with the most rightful claim to the wealth of their lands, and yet they stand to lose the most, victimized by the inhumanities of war or the ravages of irresponsible development.
(On that last thought: there are passing references to the effects of mining on ancestral lands. Dawin and Obunay, on their way home from the boar hunt, pause on a vantage point to view the encroachment of destructive mining operations into their lands. In another scene, Dawin and his children come across a parked backhoe. The datu tells them that even if he refuses the exploitation of the lands by mining corporations, it amounts to nothing because the destructive companies are protected by the military.)
Another theme that Tu Pug Imatuy manages to weave into the layered fabric of its story is education. When the soldiers spill the seeds for Dawin to count, he is unable to do so; his daughter Ilyan (Jillian Khayle Barbarona) had to tell the soldiers he is unable to count, to their atrocious amusement. It hearkens back to an earlier scene at their home, where Obunay sees Ilyan learning to read and comments, with a wishful tone, that she might become a teacher someday. Education, therefore, is clearly a common dream of the natives, recognized as a path to upliftment.
It is ironic then, that the leader of the squad that abused Dawin’s family, Lt. Olivar (Luis Banaag III), is an educated man. It is implied that this education is what tempers his cruelty; indeed he is the least abusive of the soldiers, making him the most conflicted and interesting character among them. He is mocked by Sgt. Villamor for this education: when the lieutenant cuts short one of the sergeant’s countless maltreatments of Dawin, Villamor leans onto the lieutenant (as his menacing mannerism goes), sniffs him, and taunts, “You’re still naïve in this war…I can still smell the ink from your diploma.”
The schoolhouse, which the soldiers suspect to have been built by the rebels, further characterizes the role of education in the part of society explored by the film. There, Lt. Olivar inspects the books used by the teacher, and finds material about U.S. imperialism. This, and the suspicious situation of a government teacher electing to serve in a remote, war-torn area, convinces him that the teacher is in fact a rebel on a mission to indoctrinate the locals—despite the teacher’s defense that she is lumad herself, serving her own people, and that the U.S. imperialism phenomenon is historical fact. For all his education, the lieutenant is still blinded by his state-military perspective; what the lumad views as a source of hope and upliftment for their people is to him the source and root of rebellion and conflict.
(The film, as it sides with the lumad, also comments on the failures of government. Sgt. Villamor, learning of the existence of the schoolhouse in such a remote place, mockingly tells Obunay that the government still cares after all, that they still bother to provide education in these far-flung regions—until the couple’s silence makes him question if it was indeed built by the state, or by their enemy. Going back earlier in the story, Awit’s death can also be framed as the failure of government health services to reach and benefit all of the state’s supposed citizens.)
On the look and feel of Tu Pug Imatuy: the first shot, a wide view of a serene, mountainous landscape, accompanied by Dawin’s voice as he tells his children about the abundance of their land, followed by a long take, also static, showing Dawin and Obunay leaving their home for the hunt, is almost reminiscent of Lav Diaz. But the film does not keep a contemplative pace for long—its cinematography turns kinetic, exemplified in the boar hunt where the camera nimbly follows Dawin and Obunay as they stalk the animal up a stream in the forest. (This scene, and the numerous shots throughout the film of various natural objects, reinforcing the environmental theme, recall Alejandro Iñárritu’s The Revenant.)
The quality, unfortunately, is inconsistent. The changes in color grading is jarring; sometimes it is subdued and sometimes it is saturated. Picture quality is also unreliable; night scenes are noisy, and the camera’s focus and clarity is occasionally inaccurate.
Killing, justifications, and justice
The titular killing takes many forms in Tu Pug Imatuy‘s story: the killing of wildlife, for sustenance; the killing of innocent people, as oppression; the killing of oppressors, as revenge and escape; and the killing of soldiers and rebels, in the name of ideology. The question is, which of these killings are truly rightful? The answer is not explicit, of course, but it is nevertheless implied by the film’s choice to take the perspective of the lumad. If there is a sense of justice in its story’s ending, it is because, in the grander scheme of things, this is what the film aspires for: to educate all Filipinos about the injustices still being suffered by our brothers and sisters in the war in the South, and thereby, even if only indirectly, contribute to the attainment of long-awaited peace.
As a creative work, however, Tu Pug Imatuy clearly already has its achievements. The various forms of killing in its story are arranged and assimilated into a tale that is essentially an adventure—all without being exploitative nor unnecessarily violent. It is reminiscent of another Hollywood movie, Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto, in that it makes a compelling ‘there and back again’ adventure profound by infusing it with a complete range of themes: from the personal to the political, from concerns of family to concerns of the nation.
Tu Pug Imatuy won six awards in the Sinag Maynila 2017 film festival, the most among the five entries in the full-length category: best film, best actress for Malona Sulatan, best director for Arbi Barbarona, best screenplay for Arnel Mardoquio, best cinematography for Bryan Jimenez and Arbi Barbarona, and best music, also for Arbi Barbarona.
The author of this review recognizes the importance of sensitivity and accuracy when discussing cultural minorities, especially because the author does not represent these groups. In this spirit, the reader is welcome to call out any objectionable claims or inaccuracies in this review.

Bristol, UK, 23 June 2020 – The UK’s first street level map of areas potentially at risk from extreme weather conditions has been warmly received since its launch last month. Created by earth observation company 4 Earth Intelligence (4EI), with support from the Ordnance Survey through its Covid-19 Response licencing, the free at point of use Heat Hazard Postcode data is already being used to plan the provision of urban green spaces, assess vulnerable populations and inform climate change strategy. Early adopters of the data include the Greater London Authority (GLA), numerous local authorities and several central government departments.
“We recognize the danger extreme temperatures pose and the beneficial role Space Data can play. This is particularly pertinent as we continue to face COVID-19 – undoubtedly the most significant public health challenge in generations,” commented Kristina Guida, Manager at the London Climate Change Partnership, part of the GLA. “The 4EI heat hazard postcode data will help us ensure that we can understand where the hazard lies and will support the mitigation planning for reducing the impact on our most vulnerable populations”
Increased day time temperatures, reduced night time cooling, and higher air pollution levels associated with urban areas can significantly impact human health. Contributing to general discomfort, respiratory difficulties, heat cramps and exhaustion the combination of temperature and pollution can also cause non-fatal heat stroke as well as heat related mortality. It is estimated that the heatwaves of 2019 led to almost 900 additional deaths in England and, with potentially vulnerable households still maintaining self-isolation, it is possible the figures for this year could be higher.
Derived from satellite imagery and created using automated algorithms, the 4EI data identifies hot spots, usually within urban areas, where temperatures can be up to 3-4 degrees higher forming what is known as an Urban Heat Island (UHI). An UHI is a metropolitan area that is warmer than its vicinity. Heat created by energy from people, cars, transport and building’s heating, cooling and ventilation systems, interacts with construction materials to elevate temperatures.
The 4EI Heat Hazard data is being supplied free at the point of use to national organisations and multi-agency partnerships, such as Local Resilience Forums, that are currently involved in the coronavirus response until September 2020. Supplied as a CSV file for use in spreadsheets, the Heat Hazard data includes five categories, demonstrating the tendency of different locations to reach higher temperatures.
For further information and access to this resource frontline organisations are encouraged to contact email@example.com to discuss eligibility, coverage and data access. A technical white paper associated with this product is available to download from the 4EI website.

mango granita with coconut cream
For those of you who are regular visitors to stonesoup, it will not come as a surprise that I’m admitting to being an icecream freak. There isn’t anything in the dessert arena that gets my heart racing like a good scoop or two. In Winter I love to serve it as an accompaniment to hot, rich things like a crumble, but it is during the Summer months that icecream tends to take center stage as a dessert on its own.
One of the best gifts I ever indulged in for myself is my trusty icecream machine. A quick scroll through the dessert section of the stonesoup recipe index is a testament to the fact that this is one kitchen appliance that hasn’t been kept hidden at the back of the cupboard. From the exoticness of black pepper, there’s been your classic vanilla, fresh fig, dried fig, pistachio nougat, cardamom, rosemary scented, cinnamon, honey roasted macadamia and even malted chocolate… and that’s before we even begin to think about the sorbets.
The very first recipe I ever posted was for icecream: passionfruit and lemon to be precise. Yes folks, I’m serious about my iced desserts. But I haven’t always been blessed with an icecream maker. I still remember those dark days, stumbling across tempting icecream recipes, attempting to churn by hand and always being disappointed with the result to the point of deciding that unless you had the right gear, icecream was something that was best out-sourced.
My recent Summer holidays saw me temporarily back in an icecream-machine-free world. Although my packing tendencies do have something of a kitchen sink flavour to them, the thought of lugging such a heavy piece of kit to a beach shack just did not feel right. As I began to contemplate a bleak holiday without frozen treats, I had one of those lightening bolt moments. Granita! Of course. If you aren’t going to be able to achieve the silky smooth vibe of icecream or sorbet why not move the goal posts and go for a chunky, icy texture instead and then serve with a dollup of double cream for contrast, richness and flavour….all good things….
apricot granita with double cream
Apricots are one of those things that when they are good, they are very very good but when they are bad…blah. I still remember my first ripe apricot picked from my Pop’s lovingly tended tree, an experience that has left me with very high standards when it comes to this little stonefruit. Unless you can get your hands on some full flavoured apricots, I’d probably recommend giving them a miss and substituting in peaches, nectarines or even blood plums.
500g ripe apricots, halved & destoned
1/2C orange juice
double cream or crème fraiche, to serve
Combine water and sugar in a saucepan and stir over a medium heat until sugar has dissolved. Add apricots and bring to a simmer for about 5mins. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Puree in a food processor or with a stick blender or mash with a fork if you’re really packing light – a few fruit chunks will add to the texture. Stir through orange juice and place in a large container in the freezer. Freeze for 2 hours then remove and stir with a fork to combine the outer, more frozen, bits with the softer middle. Return to the freezer for a few more hours or until just frozen.
To serve, scoop granita into rough ice shavings and divide between 4 cups or pretty glasses. Pass cream separately.
Note. If the granita is frozen solid, it may help to let it stand in the refrigerator for 15mins or so to soften before attempting to scoop out.
mango granita with coconut cream
Mangos have to be the quintessential Summer fruit and have been stellar this year compared with the paltry cyclone Larry affected crop from last Summer. So fragrant and sweet, they still have something of the exotic and the erotic about them and are really best eaten in the bath, naked, preferably with someone you love….OK starting to get a little carried away there…
If you do feel like a change from simple fresh mango, this granita is a crowd pleaser and doesn’t require one to be in a bath or in company for full enjoyment, although by all means if that’s where you’d prefer to take your dessert please go ahead.
If the thought of reducing the coconut cream seems like too much trouble, feel free to give it a miss or substitute in some double cream if you are in the mood for something less virtuous.
125mL (1/2C) water
110g (1/2C) sugar
3 medium mangos (approx 500g mango flesh)
juice ½ – 1 lemon
275mL coconut cream
Combine water and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to the boil stirring periodically until sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool. Place mango flesh in a food processor and puree. Add sugar syrup and mix until well combined. Add juice of ½ lemon and taste. If tastes too sweet add a little more lemon until the flavour is balanced.
Place in a container and freeze for 2 hours. Using a fork break up the ice crystals on the edges and stir through. You don’t need to be too fussy here the idea is to end up with a rough icy texture, not something that is sorbet smooth. Return to the freezer and freeze for a few more hours or until just frozen.
In the mean time place coconut cream in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer and cook for 15minutes, stirring occasionally until the cream is reduced and thickened. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Project Description: CV-SALTS is implementing a study to evaluate nitrate contamination in the groundwater basins of the Central Valley and develop appropriate implementation measures to mitigate this contamination using a phased approach that includes providing safe drinking water, reducing or eliminating impacts to drinking water sources and implementing managed restoration activities where needed to restore beneficial uses in groundwater. The implementation measures, which will be incorporated into the SNMP, will be phased and a prioritization methodology will be used to rank groundwater basins in order of priority – where risk reduction from nitrate in groundwater is optimized to facilitate use of the limited resources available. Findings from NIMS will be evaluated along with SSALTS findings to develop a coordinated salt and nitrate management program for incorporation into the SNMP.
Project Status: Project was initiated in August 2015 and completed in May 2016.

Other than a rough first, Mike Mussina had a very good six-inning stint. The offense was excellent in coming back from a 4-1 deficit despite squandering some chances. Mariano capped some bullpen instability last night with a typically outstanding inning, nailing down a big 6-5 win over the Twins in the first of four games in Minnesota. Lots of fun last night in the HDLR. Many thanks to everyone who dropped by, and safe travels to Tim the Wizard, who leaves today for India, Vietnam, and other ports of call. As that immortal 20th century philosopher, Bugs Bunny, would say, “Hasty Bananas!”
The Yanks started last night’s game well, scoring right away in the first. Abreu walked and stole second as part of a huge night for him, and Matsui flung out his bat and blooped a single into shallow left with Abreu running hard all the way, 1-0 Yanks. It didn’t last long as the Twins scored four, aided by some shoddy defense. Casilla singled, Mauer walked. Morneau hit an easy grounder to Duncan at first and, as he tried to throw to second for at least a force, threw it away and pulled Jeter off the bag, E3, everyone safe. Oh, to have a first baseman who can turn a 3-6-3. Conecutive RBI singles from Cuddyer, Kubel, and Young made it 3-1 with the bases still loaded. Jeter then made an outstanding lunging snare of Lamb’s hard-hit grounder, reaching to his right then flipping the ball backwards to Cano for the force at second, 4-1 but probably saved a run, which was huge in this game. Mussina then escaped with a come-backer, but not before surrendering four runs two earned on 36 pitches.
The Yanks got consecutive two-out singles from Molina and Melky, but Jeter’s impatience again resurfaced, swinging at the first pitch and grounding out to third. The Yankees sliced the lead to two in the third when Abreu led off with a triple and A-Rod singled him in. But Matsui’s 4-6-3 erased them, and Giambi banged a deep single that he poorly decided to stretch into a double and was out by 15 feet. STUPID. Mussina helped his own cause with an eight-pitch third. Excellent run manufacturing from the Yanks tied it at 4 in the fourth. Duncan worked a lead-off walk, Cano singled, Molina bunted them over, and Melky hit a single to left-center to tie the game. Excellent. Yet Melky then got picked off trying for second, and Jeter’s out ended the rally. Still, the Yankees erased the deficit fairly quickly, and Mussina’s 1-2-3 fourth made it eight straight he retired. The momentum had surely turned.
The Yanks took the lead in the top of the fifth when Abreu singled and A-Rod laced a double to center in a great, nine-pitch at-bat, 5-4 Yankees. Matsui’s single to right made it first and third and no outs, but Giambi scalded a ball up the middle that relief pitcher Brian Bass snagged between his legs, catching A-Rod understandably off third since such a hit would almost always score that run. Betemit “pinch-hit” for Duncan and fanned looking, then Cano himself was impatient and grounded out on the first pitch to end what could have been a big inning. Still, 5-4 Yanks wasn’t bad. Morneau’s two-out single in the fifth ended a string of 10 consecutive batters that Mussina retired, and he then worked a 1-2-3 sixth, impressively retiring 14 of the last 15 batters he faced. After a rough first, Moose was excellent, going six and scattering six hits and a walk, allowing four runs two earned, and fanning four on 109 pitches/73 strikes while lowering his ERA to 4.26.
The Yanks added a big insurance run in the seventh when Abreu ripped his second triple of the game, A-Rod was HBP, and Matsui’s hard-hit ground ball was too hot for the shortstop to handle, 6-4 Yanks with no outs and first and second. But rotund lefty Reyes escaped by fanning Giambi, and Betemit’s deep F9 occurred as A-Rod was running to third and he was easily doubled off second. Veras entered and promptly walked nine-hole hitter Harris, who then reached second when he wisely backed off on a DP ball to Cano, who threw to just nab the speedy Gomez at first but it allowed Harris to reach second. The smarter play for Cano would have been to get at least one by running quickly right at Harris and trying for Gomez afterwards. It mattered little after Edwar entered and retired Casilla and Mauer on fly outs. Edwar still has an ERA of 0.00 after last night’s appearance, amazing work from the kid.
Nuke then entered and surrendered his eighth homer of the year on an 0-2 letter-high fastball carelessly delivered, 6-5. Yet Nuke them settled down to retire the next three. After Giambi and Betemit stranded A-Rod after his one-out double and Matsui’s IBB, Mariano came on and shut it down. He got Lamb on a one-pitch come-backer, walked nine-hole hitter Harris, but fanned Gomez swinging and pinch-hitter Monroe looking on a picture-perfect cutter at the knees and on the outside corner. Harris really should have been the second out, since Mariano threw a perfect cutter at the knees on e3-2, but home plate up Meals must have been getting paid by the pitch counts, for he called it a ball. No matter, the Yanks peeled out of there with the first win of the series to yet again even their mark at .500, closing the first 1/3 of the year with a 27-27 record.
The bats really came alive last night. Abreu was the hitting star, going 3-4 with four runs, two triples, and a walk to up his average to .296. A-Rod and Matsui were each 3-4 with 2 RBIs apiece. A-Rod now has 19 RBIs and a .291 average, and Matsui 26 RBIs, and a league-leading .339 average. Matsui is now 17 for his last 31, raising his average 42 points in his last eight games alone. The 2-3-4 hitters were 9-12 last night with 4 runs and 4 RBIs, carrying the offense. The bottom of the order was productive as well, with Molina going 2-3 with a sac to up his average to .219, and Melky 3-4 with 2 RBIs, his 23rd of the year to raise his average to .266. Giambi and Cano added a single apiece. Of the team’s 16 hits, 12 were singles. While I love the extra-base hits, I also love the quantity of hits and the fact that they were fairly spread out. Jeter’s hand must be bothering him, for his 0-5 night makes him 3 for his last 37, lowering his average to .272. Duncan and Betemit were a combined 0-4.
Tonight, the Yankees close out May by trying to make it three straight wins, and to push themselves above the .500 mark for the first time since May 4, when the Yanks completed a sweep of Seattle to go to 17-16 on the year. New York sends staff ace CMW (6-2, 3.82 ERA) to the hill against Boof Bonser (2-6, 6.16 ERA).

Earlier this month, innisfree surprised me a special personal delivery of the new innisfree Jeju Ginger Oil Line products! If you follow my blog long enough, you would know I've been using innisfree products (both skincare and cosmetics) and also tried out a few different skin care product range from this brand. I bet some of you also know how sensitive my skin are, yet these products never break my skin out, all gotta thanks to all the natural ingredients used in their products.
Ginger has a long-standing reputation as a universal healer. In Ancient China, it is said that Confucius claimed never to eat a meal without ginger for extra warmth. In the 16th Century, Ginger Bread was first made when Henry VIII of England encouraged people to eat ginger in hopes of building a resistance to diseases.
The new Jeju Ginger Oil range of products is packed with a high concentration of 6-Gingerol extracted from the pristine environment of Jeju. This active ingredient of ginger root helps strengthen skin's defensive power to protect it from external harmful elements. As a new addition to innisfree anti-aging category, it has a distinct function from other lines and works particularly effective in addressing inner skin dryness.
The Ginger Oil Line includes - Ginger Oil Serum (RM132/50ml), Ginger Oil Rich Serum (RM132/50ml), Ginger Oil Skin (RM105/200ml), Ginger Oil Cream (RM132/50ml) and Ginger Oil Warming Mask (RM85/80g).
GINGER OIL SKIN
This Ginger Oil Skin is a highly nourishing toner that contains natural xanthan gum, an ingredient that helps form a moist water protective layer on the skin. It can be easily absorbed into the skin and leaves a smooth and moist feeling.
GINGER OIL SERUM
This Ginger Oil Serum contains 40% of the ultra-fine ginger oil that are stabilized in the extremely fine micro-size form that are smaller than other essence products. This is why the texture is rather light without a greasy feel despite its high oil content.
The fact that it is water-soluble has also helped skin to absorb the ginger goodness rapidly, leaving no residues on skin and is then less sticky.
Glowing skin with moisturising effect is achievable with the help of Macadamia nut oil and olive oil used in the formulation.
GINGER OIL CREAM
This Ginger Oil Cream contains olive wax and ginger oil that melts softly on skin to provide double moisture protection. The ginger oil is well-blended in cream texture to deliver a deep nourishment on skin.
The ideal steps to use Ginger Oil products - Skin > Oil Serum/Oil Rich Serum > Cream > Warming Mask (weekly). I have been using these three products for the past 2 weeks and so far it has been showing nothing but radiant glowy skin to my skin. Again, it didn't break my sensitive skin out too. Did I mention that all of these products smells amazingly gingery good!? It has mild pleasant gingery smell that somehow makes me zen whilst applying the products on my skin. Now, I am so tempted to try out the Warming Mask!
Do not forget to visit innisfree outlets below to check out for their monthly in-store promotion and also all the new products range that have been launched monthly!

Ryan Fitzpatrick dismisses the demons that haunted him after last years epic collapse in the second half of week 17.
Well the worst case scenario came true for Buffalo Bills fans. The Bills are now 0-2 after a 37-31 loss to the hands of the New York Jets. Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Jets offense had a field day, collecting 493 yards of total offense. The great due of cornerbacks we have heard all year got torched by Eric Decker and Brandon Marshall who both had over 100 yards receiving.
Lets look at the good, the bad, and the ugly from Thursday night.
- Can we give some credit to the offensive line? They did not allow a sack to this Jets front four. While the holes were not there for the rushing game, they did give Taylor time to scan the field.
- Dan Carpenter and Colton Schmidt did their jobs. Carpenter was 4 for 4 on extra point attempts, and Schmidt pinned one punt down inside the 20 yard line and his two other punts were fair caught.
- Inside line backers Preston Brown and Zach Brown combined for 30 tackles. Preston forced the fumble that resulted in a touchdown for the Bills defense, and Zach was credited for a quarterback hurry. They contained the Jets to just 3.4 yards per rush.
- Tyrod Taylor did not play awful but he did not play great. While he did have some big plays to Marquise Goodwin and Greg Salas, Taylor continues to miss on the short passes. Taylor only managed to find Sammy Watkins two times on five attempts. While Taylor was better then he was in week one, this performance will not sit well with Bills fans. Is this really supposed to be our franchise quarterback?
- The Jets were 8 of 13 (62%) on third downs. It also doesn’t help when you commit penalties on third and long and give the opposition a fresh start of downs.
- After the defense did their part in week one keeping the offense in the game, they sure did not have the same impact Thursday night. This Rex Ryan led defense allowed 493 yards on 71 plays. They allowed two wide receivers to have over 100 yards, and a running back to rush for over 100 and score three times. Fitzpatrick was 1-8 heading into this game against Rex Ryan as a defensive coach/head coach.
- Cornerbacks Stephon Gilmore and Ronald Darby are supposed to be the best duo in the league. After last nights performance, these two definitely fell down a couple of levels on the bar. Gilmore had a rough go right from the start, getting beat deep, then called for a holding penalty, and then whiffed on a tackle that ended up in a first down. If you want to earn the big bucks, you need to play like it. For Darby, he was targeted almost every time in the second half by Fitzpatrick. While he did compete, he gave up way too many big plays. The Bills need better play from their two corner backs, especially if you are going to leave them on an island by themselves.
- Should it really be that hard to gain one yard? Is it necessary to bring in EJ Manuel? Run the wildcat with LeSean McCoy and give him an extra blocker. They did bring back Jerome Felton as their fullback didn’t they? Could Karlos Williams have gained that yardage? For being claimed as a guru by some, Greg Roman sure does overthink the simple things in life.
So what happens next? The Bills next two opponents are the Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots. Very few 0-2 teams make the playoffs. Only one team, the 1992 San Diego Chargers, have made the playoffs after starting 0-4. Hopefully you are catching my drift. With ten days off, the media will need to create a story. What is Rex’s job security? What about Whaley? What is the status of Sammy Watkins foot? Will this offense figure it out? These next two weeks should be interesting.

Considerably smaller than WTM, the annual Luxury Travel Fair is organised by Condé Nast (publishers of Vanity Fair, Vogue, The New Yorker, etc. – and Condé Nast Traveller).
With a high ticket price, its central Louis Roederer champagne bar and an Anton Mosimann restaurant area, it is aimed at high net worth travel customers. Some 90 or so luxury travel products and services exhibitors take space at the show.
An interesting feature is the series of ‘Meet the Experts’ talks by authors and travellers – there is scope here for a presentation focusing on the very special delights of French waterway holidays and vacations.
Pleasingly, our cruise holiday specialist colleagues at Ponders Travel enjoyed a highly successful show – during the time that french-waterways.com visited the show (we had complimentary VIP tickets) their stand was crowded with past and potential clients.
We would be keen to co-ordinate future participation from our partner companies, fleets, agencies
and individual hotel barges.

VANCOUVER EASTSIDE MISSING WOMEN
Pickton set to plead not guilty Monday
By ROBERT MATAS
Vancouver — Robert (Willy) Pickton, the former pig farmer accused of being Canada's deadliest serial killer, will stand in the prisoner's box in B.C. Supreme Court Monday morning and tell the judge he is not guilty of murdering 27 women, his lawyer Peter Ritchie says.
Under extremely tight security, Mr. Justice James Williams will then begin a hearing to consider legal submissions on what can be presented to a jury later this year. It could be several months before the court sets a date for selecting a jury and calling witnesses.
Nevertheless, relatives of the 27 women, sex-trade workers who disappeared from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, are relieved that the case is finally moving forward almost four years after Mr. Pickton was first arrested.
"This is the long-awaited-for day," said Ernie Crey, an unofficial spokesman for some of the families. His sister's DNA was found on Mr. Pickton's farm in Port Coquitlam, although her name was not included in the list of alleged victims named in the charges against Mr. Pickton.
"This investigation has gone on for years, and finally we're going to see the trial get under way. That is important to me, and I'm sure for other families whose loved ones Pickton faces charges for killing," Mr. Crey said in an interview.
The sensational case has drawn international attention. The trial is expected to unveil details of the most grisly crime scene ever investigated in Canada.
"We are starting that part of trial where a plea will be taken on Monday," Mr. Ritchie said in an interview. He confirmed that Mr. Pickton would plead not guilty but he declined to elaborate further.
Mr. Pickton, 56, stands accused of preying on mostly vulnerable, drug-addicted aboriginal prostitutes who lived and worked in the Downtown Eastside, the poorest neighbourhood in Canada. Police investigating a sharp increase in the number of missing women first identified Mr. Pickton as a person of interest in 1998.
While their investigation continued, the list of missing women continued to grow: 31 names in 1999, 46 names in 2001. The probe gained speed after police raided the Pickton farm, looking for firearms. Media reports at that time said police found personal items of some of the missing women.
Mr. Pickton was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder on Feb. 22, 2002, and more charges were added as the years passed. However, the 27 charges against Mr. Pickton account for less than half of the women listed as missing from the Downtown Eastside.
A court-ordered publication ban prohibits media from reporting the case against Mr. Pickton as detailed in the preliminary hearing. The ban is intended to ensure that those who may be called to serve on the jury will find out about the case from testimony in court, rather than from the news media.
However, some details have been revealed from events outside the courtroom. More than 50 archeological experts who could identify human bone fragments have raked through the mud at the Pickton farm. A team that included forensic experts, biologists, toxicologists and chemists has searched for traces of DNA. Health authorities have said that police did not rule out the possibility that human remains may have been included in meat processed for human consumption at the Pickton farm.
Families of the victims are not expected to be in the New Westminster court on Monday. Because they may be called as witnesses, they were advised to stay away. However, friends and supporters were expected to show up outside the courtroom to mark the start of the trial with aboriginal drumming and the display of a memorial quilt bearing the names of more than 90 missing women.
Mr. Crey, who often listened to testimony during the preliminary hearing last year, said he finds the show of public support helpful. "It helps lift the burden," he said. "It lifts my spirits because I know I am among a lot of people who care, many who worked with my sister when she was there. It's really a comfort and I'm glad they are showing up."
Susan Davis, chairman of Prostitution Alternatives Counselling Education, a community group that advocates for prostitutes, is critical of how the court case has been handled.
"Who benefits from this trial?" Ms. Davis wondered in an interview. "The police get to look good; everyone who works at the courthouse gets paid. It is going to sell a bunch of newspapers. How does that help sex workers?"
The 37-year-old said she has been "a sex worker" for almost 20 years. The disappearance of so many sex workers should be an embarrassment for the entire country, said Ms. Davis, who would like to see significant changes to the prostitution laws. "I don't think anyone can fathom how many [prostitutes] have gone missing."
Mr. Pickton's brother, David, was reluctant to reveal in an interview yesterday whether he would attend the trial. He said that he did not know what was happening, that neither the police nor the lawyers had kept him informed. "I don't want to know. I got enough to worry about," he added, referring to his business activities.
However, he indicated that he is occasionally in contact with his brother. "My brother is doing okay, I guess," he said. "I haven't spoken to him in a while."
The four-hectare Pickton farm in the Vancouver suburb of Port Coquitlam, which was used as a landfill as well as to raise pigs, is surrounded by smart new residential developments and remains much as it was when police completed their investigation. Huge mounds of earth are shoved about. Some heavy-construction equipment and a few trailers remain on the land. Faded "Danger – No Trespassing" signs dangle on a rented metal fence on the edge of the property.
Over a noon-hour coffee at a Starbucks five minutes away from the Pickton farm, long-time Port Coquitlam residents talked this week about the impact from reports of the notorious police investigation on their city. Extensive media coverage has put their out-of-the-way suburb on the map, they said. Relatives and acquaintances from far away recognize the name of their city.
But they have no intention of pulling up stakes to escape the association.
"Every town has its problems," said a 47-year old woman who asked that her name not be published. "Where do you move to? . . . You just try and keep as safe as you can."

Every day, the Trump “Drain the Swamp” campaign is revealing those who are protecting and obstructing the investigation into the political elite pedophile ring that has ruled over the American people for far to long. Many politicians and people in powers of position and trust have been forced to speak out against Trump or have their tapes of horror released from the “Dark Web.” So many politicians and people in leadership positions have been trapped by the sex tapes for compliance and loyalty, that many are welcoming the Trump investigations. But, there are those who are still willing to do what it takes to stop the “Drain the Swamp” campaign from getting to the “TRUTH” of who the elite political pedophile individuals (all parties) government organizations, and companies are.
As with any “BEING” human or non-human, their actions speak for themselves as to if they support people and planet, or if they support self, greed, with nothing to show for their years of service in their history. Each “BEING” on planet Earth, rich or poor gives back in some way whether they know it or not. Even a smile is given back to the universe and planet as well as acts of kindness and love toward any living “BEING.”
Who in the Trump administration and in the world is speaking out against what continues to expose corruption, greed and lies??? There are two types of “BEINGS” on planet Earth, and those who will protect the pedophiles and those who won’t. Attacking the sitting president of the United States, is protecting every pedophile in the world? Who has something to hide, that they would risk openly attacking Donald Trump???
WASHINGTON — The White House counsel, Donald F. McGahn II, has cooperated extensively in the special counsel investigation, sharing detailed accounts about the episodes at the heart of the inquiry into whether President Trump obstructed justice, including some that investigators would not have learned of otherwise, according to a dozen current and former White House officials and others briefed on the matter.
Mr. McGahn’s cooperation began in part as a result of a decision by Mr. Trump’s first team of criminal lawyers to collaborate fully with Mr. Mueller. The president’s lawyers have explained that they believed their client had nothing to hide and that they could bring the investigation to an end quickly. Mr. McGahn and his lawyer, William A. Burck, could not understand why Mr. Trump was so willing to allow Mr. McGahn to speak freely to the special counsel and feared Mr. Trump was setting up Mr. McGahn to take the blame for any possible illegal acts of obstruction, according to people close to him. So he and Mr. Burck devised their own strategy to do as much as possible to cooperate with Mr. Mueller to demonstrate that Mr. McGahn did nothing wrong.
The president stressed that the White House had been cooperative with the investigation, tweeting on Saturday evening after this article was published that Mr. McGahn had been allowed to speak to the special counsel.
I allowed White House Counsel Don McGahn, and all other requested members of the White House Staff, to fully cooperate with the Special Counsel. In addition we readily gave over one million pages of documents. Most transparent in history. No Collusion, No Obstruction. Witch Hunt!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 18, 2018
WHO IS DON MCGAHN???
WHO DOES HE WORK FOR…THE PRESIDENT OR THE DEEP STATE THAT IS TRYING TO REMOVE THE PRESIDENT FOR THE PEOPLE FROM OFFICE???
The son of a Treasury Department investigator, Mr. McGahn, 50, briefly attended the Naval Academy before transferring to Notre Dame, graduating in 1991. He attended Widener University’s Commonwealth Law School in Pennsylvania, then came to Washington and climbed the ranks of the Republican establishment, alternating between private firms and a stint on the Federal Election Commission.
Mr. Mueller has told the president’s lawyers that he will follow Justice Department guidance that sitting presidents cannot be indicted. Rather than charge Mr. Trump if he finds evidence of wrongdoing, he is more likely to write a report that can be sent to Congress for lawmakers to consider impeachment proceedings.
WHO SWORE AN OATH TO THE PEOPLE???
WHO SWORE AN OATH TO THE PRESIDENT???
WHY IS EVERYONE THAT ATTACKS DONALD TRUMP HAVE CONNECTIONS TO PENNSYLVANIA, COUNCIL OF FOREIGN RELATIONS, YALE, THE BUSH FAMILY, OR A WIFE THAT HELPS TO KEEP THE SECRETS SECRET FROM THE PEOPLE???
After graduation from law school, McGahn worked in campaign finance law at the Washington, D.C. office of law firm Patton Boggs. From 1999 to 2008, McGahn was chief counsel for the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC). George W. Bush nominated McGahn as a Republican-selected member of the Federal Election Commission in 2008. He was confirmed on June 24, 2008 by the United States Senate and was sworn in shortly thereafter. He is credited as having played a crucial role in loosening regulations on campaign spending.
As presented with documentary footage in the 2018 film Dark Money, McGahn’s brief period as incoming chair of the Commission ushered in a newly partisan rigor to the FEC whereby he and his two fellow Republican members, also new, formed an unprecedented lockstep voting block preventing any and all enforcement of FEC regulations. McGahn resigned from the FEC in September 2013.
ACTIONS DEFINING THE CONTENT OF CHARACTER???
After leaving the FEC, McGahn returned to the law firm Patton Boggs. In 2014 he moved to the law firm of Jones Day in Washington, D.C. He also worked for the Koch affiliated Freedom Partners. McGahn is married to Shannon McGahn, former Counselor to Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin.
HISTORY WILL SHOW WHERE ONES LOYALTY AND SUPPORT IS…WITH THE PEOPLE, OR PROFIT AND ACTIONS WILL CONFIRM THE CHOICE!!!
All I know, is a man named Donald Trump, was elected to the presidency of the United States, and for the first time Americans got someone who has done many of the things a regular old American has done. Trump knows about losing it all and starting over and life at the street level from the bottom to the top. The only president that can truly relate with every kind of person and willing to give “ALL” a chance…OMAROSA FROM THE GHETTO GOT TO WHERE SHE IS BECAUSE OF TRUMP, BUT GREED HAS A WAY OF GETTING TO SOME WHO MAKE THAT MOVE TO THE WHITE HOUSE.
Who is Promoting Books That Support the President, and Who Has Rushed to Release Books for Smear, Hate, and Fear of the “TRUTH?”
Authors who wrote books supporting the president, automatically support ridding the world of the men and women who prey upon children. Past U.S. presidential administration have done nothing and looked the other way as children were being abducted from the streets of the United States. Mainstream media distracting Americans with sports, cars, booze, and sex while all over the U.S. children are crying to be saved.
Who’s supporting the “TRUTH” and the president of the United States???
15 books that have been written about the Trump White House
THE ONES THAT SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT & EVERY AMERICAN, A MUST READ & THE ONES THAT BASHED, AND TRIED TO SMEAR THE ACTIONS OF THE PRESIDENT CAN BE FOUND IN THE LINK AT THE BOTTOM – BOOKS THAT DIVIDE AND NOT UNITE THE PEOPLE AREN’T LISTED!!!
“The Faith of Donald J. Trump: A Spiritual Biography” by David Brody and Scott Lamb
“Killing the Deep State: The Fight to Save President Trump” by Jerome Corsi
Read the comments…most speak the “TRUTH.”
“The Capitalist Comeback: The Trump Boom and the Left’s Plot to Stop It” by Andrew Puzder
Send this author a donation and “Make America Great Again!!!”
“Born Trump: Inside America’s First Family” by Emily Jane Fox
“Liars, Leakers, and Liberals: The Case Against the Anti-Trump Conspiracy” by Judge Jeanine Pirro
“The Russia Hoax: The Illicit Scheme to Clear Hillary Clinton and Frame Donald Trump” by Gregg Jarrett
BELOW IS THE REST OF THE LIST OF BOOKS THAT DIDN’T HAVE A POSITIVE THING TO SAY ABOUT LIBERTY, FREEDOM, AND JUSTICE FOR “ALL!!!”
The only people who don’t want the world or Americans to unite are the pedophiles, and those who attack the president, support them!!! Support “Making America Great Again” and let the authors who want to divide the people know how you feel!!! If they aren’t standing for and supporting the president, are they are supporting the suppression of information that saves the children from the pedophiles???
When will the abduction, rape, and torture of the 2000 children that go missing a day in the USA be addressed??? Where is the news media, journalists, investigative reporters that really care about the country you live in??? Once the children are rescued from their predators, life for “ALL” changes. Those that don’t want Trump to “Drain the Swamp” of pedophiles attack him and prevent the rescue of the children!!!
Arrests any day now; Full Audit of IRS; NSA Servers Down; Obama used IRS like his own Debit Card

Aside from the fact that THC and CBD are both three-letter acronyms, there are some additional similarities and differences between the two. It is especially important to understand the differences between these two substances because terms like THC, CBD, marijuana, and hemp are often used interchangeably, but that’s not always accurate. In this article, we’ll provide answers to many common questions regarding CBD and THC, including:
- What is CBD?
- How long does CBD stay in your system?
- Is CBD addictive?
- What is THC?
- How long does THC stay in your system?
- Is THC Addictive?
- How are THC and CBD used?
- What are the side effects of CBD and THC?
- Are THC and CBD legal?
Table of contents
What Is CBD?
CBD is short for cannabidiol and it is a naturally-occurring chemical compound that is extracted from the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, CBD is not a psychoactive substance (meaning it won’t get you high) and it is used in oils and other products to promote feelings of calmness and relaxation.1
Recently, the popularity of CBD products has soared due to claims about its many health benefits, although there is only one FDA-approved CBD medication currently used to treat epilepsy.2 Otherwise, many of the claims about CBD’s health benefits are not based on scientific evidence, rather, they are based on personal accounts. There just isn’t enough research out there to know if CBD is truly effective for pain management, anxiety relief, or cancer like some people say it is.
In terms of legality, last year, President Trump signed a new bill into law that made it federally legal to grow hemp.3 It’s still up to each individual state to set their own policy and many states don’t allow hemp CBD to be sold to the public at all, whether as CBD oil, pills, or a food additive.
Currently, the FDA does not regulate CBD products, despite the fact that a 2017 study found that nearly 7 of 10 CBD products didn’t contain the amount of marijuana extract stated on the label and 1 in 5 CBD products also contained THC. In addition, about 43 percent of CBD products contained too little CBD and 26 percent contained too much.4
Additionally, CBD oil is not the same as hemp oil. The hemp plant and the marijuana plant both contain CBD, but the hemp plant contains much more. Hemp oil is extracted from the seeds of the hemp plant and there are no cannabinoids (CBD or THC) in it.5
If a person is using CBD oil that is made from industrial hemp, they do not need a prescription. However, many doctors won’t prescribe it because there aren’t any established guidelines for recommended dosages. It is impossible to abuse CBD or to become addicted because it does not produce any euphoric effects.6
How Long Does CBD Stay in Your System?
It takes about one week for CBD to leave your system but this often varies on a case-by-case basis.7 Although marijuana is detectable via urine, blood, saliva, and hair drug tests, CBD is not likely to show up on a drug test, unless it contains THC.8
Is CBD Addictive?
Since CBD does not produce any euphoric side effects when it is used, it is not considered an addictive substance. According to the World Health Organization, CBD does not have any potential for abuse or dependence in humans. WHO also states, “To date, there is no evidence of public health-related problems associated with the use of pure CBD.”9
Unlike THC, which binds to the CB1 receptor in the central nervous system, CBD does not bind with CB1 receptors and therefore, does not produce euphoria or intoxicating effects. However, a person who has a history with substance abuse may be more likely to develop an unhealthy relationship with CBD, in which they feel like they can’t function normally without it. Regardless, anyone using CBD for the first time should consult a doctor.
What Is THC?
THC stands for tetrahydrocannabinol, which is a chemical compound that is found in the resin secreted by the marijuana plant. THC is an active ingredient in marijuana and it is what causes the euphoric high and psychological effects that marijuana users feel.10
Unlike CBD, THC produces psychoactive effects by binding to the CB1 receptor in the central nervous system and changing the way a person senses things or perceives time. THC also changes the way information is processed in the brain, which can cause hallucinations or delusions. A user will start to feel the effects of THC within the first 20 to 30 minutes after a dose and its effects generally last up to two hours.11
THC may be found in many marijuana products such as hand-rolled joints, marijuana extracts, and edibles like candy, brownies, or tea. Although the euphoric effects of THC make marijuana and other marijuana products that contain THC popular, there are many risks associated with it.
For example, a person who is impaired due to marijuana use (even medical marijuana) may not be able to drive safely without harming themselves or putting others at risk. The use of marijuana can also cause long-term cognitive problems, including a decrease in IQ, memory, and cognition. This is especially true for young people whose brains are still developing.10 The use of edibles can also increase a person’s risk for overdose, especially if they are eating large quantities of them, which in turn, means they are also ingesting large quantities of THC.
Despite the risks, when it’s used properly (and not abused for the purpose of getting high) marijuana and THC do have medical benefits. Medical marijuana is currently legal in 33 states and D.C. but THC can also be extracted from marijuana to be used medically to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with cancer medicines. The FDA-approved drug dronabinol is a prime example of that.12
How Long Does THC Stay in Your System?
THC stays in your system for several days or even weeks. The length of time in which THC will show up on a drug test depends on a few different variables, including:
- A person’s body fat percentage
- How frequently they use marijuana
- How much marijuana they use or consume
- The sensitivity and type of drug test used
Some people use THC detox products to flush the THC from their system more quickly, but the efficacy of those products is questionable. The following chart contains approximate drug detection times for THC in marijuana.
Drug Testing for THC
|Urine test||Detectable for 3-30 days after use|
|Blood test||Detectable for 3-4 hours|
|Saliva test||Detectable for 24-72 hours after use|
|Hair follicle test||Detectable for up to 90 days after use|
Is THC Addictive?
High THC has the potential to be addictive. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the use of marijuana can lead to marijuana use disorder, which can progress to addiction in some instances. Studies suggest that 30 percent of people who use marijuana experience some degree of marijuana use disorder and people who start using it before the age of 18 are up to seven times more likely to develop a marijuana use disorder than adults.13
THC Withdrawal Symptoms
THC is more likely to cause physical dependence and tolerance than addiction, which is characterized by feelings of withdrawal when the person isn’t using. Studies show nine percent of people who use marijuana will become dependent on it. Of those who start using it in their teens, 17 percent will become dependent on it.13
Signs of marijuana dependency and THC withdrawal may include:
- Mood and sleep difficulties
- Decreased appetite
- Overall physical discomfort
CBD vs. THC: Uses
According to personal accounts, CBD can be used for many different purposes, such as to help with:
- Psychosis or mental disorders
- Inflammatory bowel disease
As mentioned above, CBD oil shows promise in many of these areas, but research is still very limited at this time. Many of these medical benefits of CBD have not yet been scientifically proven.
THC can be used to help with conditions like:
- Muscle spasticity
- Low appetite
CBD vs. THC: Side Effects
Products that contain CBD and THC produce certain side effects that users should be aware of. Research shows CBD does not typically produce any side effects, even in large doses, but some people report otherwise. Experts say this is largely due to CBD being used with other substances, also referred to as polysubstance abuse.
|Side Effects of CBD||Side Effects of THC|
*Experiencing any side effects of CBD is very uncommon, but some people have reported these minor side-effects from using CBD products.
CBD vs. THC: Legality
Currently, both CBD and THC are federally illegal. However, the legality of both is often very murky because some states have enacted laws that make one or both substances legal for recreational and/or medical purposes.
Get Addiction Treatment Today
If you or a loved one is struggling with substance abuse problems, help is available. Using CBD or THC to cope with difficult life circumstances or to escape emotional pain is not only physically and psychologically damaging, but it can also lead to other substance abuse problems down the road.

Naively simplifies the given expression.
Simplification is not a well defined term and the exact strategies this function tries can change in the future versions of SymPy. If your algorithm relies on “simplification” (whatever it is), try to determine what you need exactly - is it powsimp()?, radsimp()?, together()?, logcombine()?, or something else? And use this particular function directly, because those are well defined and thus your algorithm will be robust.
In some cases, applying simplify() may actually result in some more complicated expression. By default ratio=1.7 prevents more extreme cases: if (result length)/(input length) > ratio, then input is returned unmodified (count_ops() is used to measure length).
For example, if ratio=1, simplify output can’t be longer than input.
>>> from sympy import S, simplify, count_ops, oo >>> root = S("(5/2 + 21**(1/2)/2)**(1/3)*(1/2 - I*3**(1/2)/2)" ... "+ 1/((1/2 - I*3**(1/2)/2)*(5/2 + 21**(1/2)/2)**(1/3))")
Since simplify(root) would result in a slightly longer expression, root is returned inchanged instead:
>>> simplify(root, ratio=1) is root True
If ratio=oo, simplify will be applied anyway:
>>> count_ops(simplify(root, ratio=oo)) > count_ops(root) True
Note that the shortest expression is not necessary the simplest, so setting ratio to 1 may not be a good idea. Heuristically, default value ratio=1.7 seems like a reasonable choice.
Collect additive terms with respect to a list of symbols up to powers with rational exponents. By the term symbol here are meant arbitrary expressions, which can contain powers, products, sums etc. In other words symbol is a pattern which will be searched for in the expression’s terms.
This function will not apply any redundant expanding to the input expression, so user is assumed to enter expression in final form. This makes ‘collect’ more predictable as there is no magic behind the scenes. However it is important to note, that powers of products are converted to products of powers using ‘separate’ function.
There are two possible types of output. First, if ‘evaluate’ flag is set, this function will return a single expression or else it will return a dictionary with separated symbols up to rational powers as keys and collected sub-expressions as values respectively.
>>> from sympy import collect, sympify, Wild >>> from sympy.abc import a, b, c, x, y, z
This function can collect symbolic coefficients in polynomial or rational expressions. It will manage to find all integer or rational powers of collection variable:
>>> collect(a*x**2 + b*x**2 + a*x - b*x + c, x) c + x**2*(a + b) + x*(a - b)
The same result can be achieved in dictionary form:
>>> d = collect(a*x**2 + b*x**2 + a*x - b*x + c, x, evaluate=False) >>> d[x**2] a + b >>> d[x] a - b >>> d[sympify(1)] c
You can also work with multi-variate polynomials. However remember that this function is greedy so it will care only about a single symbol at time, in specification order:
>>> collect(x**2 + y*x**2 + x*y + y + a*y, [x, y]) x**2*(y + 1) + x*y + y*(a + 1)
Also more complicated expressions can be used as patterns:
>>> from sympy import sin, log >>> collect(a*sin(2*x) + b*sin(2*x), sin(2*x)) (a + b)*sin(2*x)
>>> collect(a*x*log(x) + b*(x*log(x)), x*log(x)) x*(a + b)*log(x)
You can use wildcards in the pattern
>>> w = Wild('w1') >>> collect(a*x**y - b*x**y, w**y) x**y*(a - b)
It is also possible to work with symbolic powers, although it has more complicated behavior, because in this case power’s base and symbolic part of the exponent are treated as a single symbol:
>>> collect(a*x**c + b*x**c, x) a*x**c + b*x**c
>>> collect(a*x**c + b*x**c, x**c) x**c*(a + b)
However if you incorporate rationals to the exponents, then you will get well known behavior:
>>> collect(a*x**(2*c) + b*x**(2*c), x**c) (a + b)*(x**2)**c
Note also that all previously stated facts about ‘collect’ function apply to the exponential function, so you can get:
>>> from sympy import exp >>> collect(a*exp(2*x) + b*exp(2*x), exp(x)) (a + b)*exp(2*x)
If you are interested only in collecting specific powers of some symbols then set ‘exact’ flag in arguments:
>>> collect(a*x**7 + b*x**7, x, exact=True) a*x**7 + b*x**7
>>> collect(a*x**7 + b*x**7, x**7, exact=True) x**7*(a + b)
You can also apply this function to differential equations, where derivatives of arbitrary order can be collected. Note that if you collect with respect to a function or a derivative of a function, all derivatives of that function will also be collected. Use exact=True to prevent this from happening:
>>> from sympy import Derivative as D, collect, Function >>> f = Function('f') (x)
>>> collect(a*D(f,x) + b*D(f,x), D(f,x)) (a + b)*Derivative(f(x), x)
>>> collect(a*D(D(f,x),x) + b*D(D(f,x),x), f) (a + b)*Derivative(f(x), x, x)
>>> collect(a*D(D(f,x),x) + b*D(D(f,x),x), D(f,x), exact=True) a*Derivative(f(x), x, x) + b*Derivative(f(x), x, x)
>>> collect(a*D(f,x) + b*D(f,x) + a*f + b*f, f,x) (a + b)*f(x) + (a + b)*Derivative(f(x), x)
Or you can even match both derivative order and exponent at the same time.
>>> collect(a*D(D(f,x),x)**2 + b*D(D(f,x),x)**2, D(f,x)) (a + b)*Derivative(f(x), x, x)**2
Note: arguments are expected to be in expanded form, so you might have to call expand() prior to calling this function.
A wrapper to expand(power_base=True) which separates a power with a base that is a Mul into a product of powers, without performing any other expansions, provided that assumptions about the power’s base and exponent allow.
deep=True (default is False) will do separations inside functions.
force=True (default is False) will cause the expansion to ignore assumptions about the base and exponent. When False, the expansion will only happen if the base is non-negative or the exponent is an integer.
>>> from sympy.abc import x, y, z >>> from sympy import separate, sin, cos, exp
>>> (x*y)**2 x**2*y**2
>>> (2*x)**y (2*x)**y >>> separate(_) 2**y*x**y
>>> separate((x*y)**z) (x*y)**z >>> separate((x*y)**z, force=True) x**z*y**z >>> separate(sin((x*y)**z)) sin((x*y)**z) >>> separate(sin((x*y)**z), deep=True, force=True) sin(x**z*y**z)
>>> separate((2*sin(x))**y + (2*cos(x))**y) 2**y*sin(x)**y + 2**y*cos(x)**y
>>> separate((2*exp(y))**x) 2**x*exp(x*y)
>>> separate((2*cos(x))**y) 2**y*cos(x)**y
Notice that summations are left untouched. If this is not the desired behavior, apply ‘expand’ to the expression:
>>> separate(((x+y)*z)**2) z**2*(x + y)**2 >>> (((x+y)*z)**2).expand() x**2*z**2 + 2*x*y*z**2 + y**2*z**2
>>> separate((2*y)**(1+z)) 2**(z + 1)*y**(z + 1) >>> ((2*y)**(1+z)).expand() 2*2**z*y*y**z
Rationalize the denominator.
>>> from sympy import radsimp, sqrt, Symbol >>> radsimp(1/(2+sqrt(2))) -2**(1/2)/2 + 1 >>> x,y = map(Symbol, 'xy') >>> e = ((2+2*sqrt(2))*x+(2+sqrt(8))*y)/(2+sqrt(2)) >>> radsimp(e) 2**(1/2)*x + 2**(1/2)*y
Put an expression over a common denominator, cancel and reduce.
>>> from sympy import ratsimp >>> from sympy.abc import x, y >>> ratsimp(1/x + 1/y) (x + y)/(x*y)
Returns a pair with expression’s numerator and denominator. If the given expression is not a fraction then this function will return the tuple (expr, 1).
This function will not make any attempt to simplify nested fractions or to do any term rewriting at all.
If only one of the numerator/denominator pair is needed then use numer(expr) or denom(expr) functions respectively.
>>> from sympy import fraction, Rational, Symbol >>> from sympy.abc import x, y
>>> fraction(x/y) (x, y) >>> fraction(x) (x, 1)
>>> fraction(1/y**2) (1, y**2)
>>> fraction(x*y/2) (x*y, 2) >>> fraction(Rational(1, 2)) (1, 2)
This function will also work fine with assumptions:
>>> k = Symbol('k', negative=True) >>> fraction(x * y**k) (x, y**(-k))
If we know nothing about sign of some exponent and ‘exact’ flag is unset, then structure this exponent’s structure will be analyzed and pretty fraction will be returned:
>>> from sympy import exp >>> fraction(2*x**(-y)) (2, x**y)
>>> fraction(exp(-x)) (1, exp(x))
>>> fraction(exp(-x), exact=True) (exp(-x), 1)
== Usage ==
trigsimp(expr) -> reduces expression by using known trig identities
== Notes ==
deep: - Apply trigsimp inside functions
recursive: - Use common subexpression elimination (cse()) and apply trigsimp recursively (recursively==True is quite expensive operation if the expression is large)
>>> from sympy import trigsimp, sin, cos, log >>> from sympy.abc import x, y >>> e = 2*sin(x)**2 + 2*cos(x)**2 >>> trigsimp(e) 2 >>> trigsimp(log(e)) log(2*sin(x)**2 + 2*cos(x)**2) >>> trigsimp(log(e), deep=True) log(2)
If deep is True then powsimp() will also simplify arguments of functions. By default deep is set to False.
If force is True then bases will be combined without checking for assumptions, e.g. sqrt(x)*sqrt(y) -> sqrt(x*y) which is not true if x and y are both negative.
You can make powsimp() only combine bases or only combine exponents by changing combine=’base’ or combine=’exp’. By default, combine=’all’, which does both. combine=’base’ will only combine:
a a a 2x x x * y => (x*y) as well as things like 2 => 4
and combine=’exp’ will only combine
a b (a + b) x * x => x
combine=’exp’ will strictly only combine exponents in the way that used to be automatic. Also use deep=True if you need the old behavior.
When combine=’all’, ‘exp’ is evaluated first. Consider the first example below for when there could be an ambiguity relating to this. This is done so things like the second example can be completely combined. If you want ‘base’ combined first, do something like powsimp(powsimp(expr, combine=’base’), combine=’exp’).
>>> from sympy import powsimp, exp, log, symbols >>> from sympy.abc import x, y, z, n >>> powsimp(x**y*x**z*y**z, combine='all') x**(y + z)*y**z >>> powsimp(x**y*x**z*y**z, combine='exp') x**(y + z)*y**z >>> powsimp(x**y*x**z*y**z, combine='base', force=True) x**y*(x*y)**z
>>> powsimp(x**z*x**y*n**z*n**y, combine='all', force=True) (n*x)**(y + z) >>> powsimp(x**z*x**y*n**z*n**y, combine='exp') n**(y + z)*x**(y + z) >>> powsimp(x**z*x**y*n**z*n**y, combine='base', force=True) (n*x)**y*(n*x)**z
>>> x, y = symbols('x y', positive=True) >>> powsimp(log(exp(x)*exp(y))) log(exp(x)*exp(y)) >>> powsimp(log(exp(x)*exp(y)), deep=True) x + y
Simplify combinatorial expressions.
This function takes as input an expression containing factorials, binomials, Pochhammer symbol and other “combinatorial” functions, and tries to minimize the number of those functions and reduce the size of their arguments. The result is be given in terms of binomials and factorials.
The algorithm works by rewriting all combinatorial functions as expressions involving rising factorials (Pochhammer symbols) and applies recurrence relations and other transformations applicable to rising factorials, to reduce their arguments, possibly letting the resulting rising factorial to cancel. Rising factorials with the second argument being an integer are expanded into polynomial forms and finally all other rising factorial are rewritten in terms more familiar binomials and factorials.
All transformation rules can be found (or was derived from) here:
>>> from sympy.simplify import combsimp >>> from sympy import factorial, binomial >>> from sympy.abc import n, k
>>> combsimp(factorial(n)/factorial(n - 3)) n*(n - 2)*(n - 1) >>> combsimp(binomial(n+1, k+1)/binomial(n, k)) (n + 1)/(k + 1)
Given combinatorial term f(k) simplify its consecutive term ratio i.e. f(k+1)/f(k). The input term can be composed of functions and integer sequences which have equivalent representation in terms of gamma special function.
The algorithm performs three basic steps:
- Rewrite all functions in terms of gamma, if possible.
- Rewrite all occurrences of gamma in terms of products of gamma and rising factorial with integer, absolute constant exponent.
- Perform simplification of nested fractions, powers and if the resulting expression is a quotient of polynomials, reduce their total degree.
If f(k) is hypergeometric then as result we arrive with a quotient of polynomials of minimal degree. Otherwise None is returned.
For more information on the implemented algorithm refer to:
Returns True if ‘f’ and ‘g’ are hyper-similar.
Similarity in hypergeometric sense means that a quotient of f(k) and g(k) is a rational function in k. This procedure is useful in solving recurrence relations.
For more information see hypersimp().
Replace numbers with simple representations.
If rational=True then numbers are simply replaced with their rational equivalents.
If rational=False, a simple formula that numerically matches the given expression is sought (and the input should be possible to evalf to a precision of at least 30 digits).
Optionally, a list of (rationally independent) constants to include in the formula may be given.
A lower tolerance may be set to find less exact matches.
With full=True, a more extensive search is performed (this is useful to find simpler numbers when the tolerance is set low).
>>> from sympy import nsimplify, sqrt, GoldenRatio, exp, I, exp, pi >>> nsimplify(4/(1+sqrt(5)), [GoldenRatio]) -2 + 2*GoldenRatio >>> nsimplify((1/(exp(3*pi*I/5)+1))) 1/2 - I*(5**(1/2)/10 + 1/4)**(1/2) >>> nsimplify(I**I, [pi]) exp(-pi/2) >>> nsimplify(pi, tolerance=0.01) 22/7
Denests an expression that contains nested square roots. This algorithm is based on <http://www.almaden.ibm.com/cs/people/fagin/symb85.pdf>.
Perform common subexpression elimination on an expression.
Expand hypergeometric functions. If allow_hyper is True, allow partial simplification (that is a result different from input, but still containing hypergeometric functions).
>>> from sympy.simplify.hyperexpand import hyperexpand >>> from sympy.functions import hyper >>> from sympy.abc import z >>> hyperexpand(hyper(, , z)) exp(z)
Non-hyperegeometric parts of the expression and hypergeometric expressions that are not recognised are left unchanged:
>>> hyperexpand(1 + hyper([1, 1, 1], , z)) 1 + hyper((1, 1, 1), (), z)

Asteroid 2012 DA14, probably made of rock and measuring about 150 feet in diameter, will fly past the Earth on February 15 at a speed of 5 miles per second.
It will only be 17,200 miles above us at the closest point – closer than the moon and many satellites.
The asteroid was first noticed last year by Spanish astronomers. “There really hasn’t been a close approach that we know about for an object of this size,” says Donald Yeomans of NASA in an NPR story.
Oh yeah? Well, there has been in science fiction!
One of my favorite books is Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. It’s a harrowing tale of 16-year-old Miranda trying to survive with her family in Pennsylvania after a meteor hits the moon and causes worldwide tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions that block out the sun.
Meanwhile, in New York City, Alex Morales is trying to take care of his sisters. His struggle is described in Pfeffer’s The Dead and the Gone.
Finally the paths cross for Miranda and Alex in This World We Live In.

Sitting down with Walt Mossberg and Ina Fried at the Code/Mobile conference in California, BlackBerry CEO John Chen discussed a number of topics including the first Android-powered smartphone from BlackBerry better known as Priv by BlackBerry, the future of BlackBerry 10 and more. Although it was an interesting interview to take in, there wasn't a ton of new details to come out of the event but we've pulled out some highlights that should be of interest.
On Priv and Android
Walt Mossberg: Let's talk about why you're doing this. BlackBerry has been well known for integrating hardware and software; this is a break from that. Why are you doing that?
Two or three things that I need to solve for the company to do well again is I have to go cross platform, I have to solve the lack of applications, and I can't let go of the security aspect. We wanted to bring the BlackBerry know how in security — the whole stack — to Android, recognizing that we need the apps there, and the world is about integrating now. I'm doing what I'm doing to take advantage of what the industry has to offer without giving up the security and privacy features BlackBerry is known for.
Ina Fried: What if you had launched six months ago, and the Priv had stagefright or some other security flaw that was in Android?
We work with Google, but I can't guarantee anything, maybe that's a dumb thing for me to say, but we think we'll be more resilient than anyone else. We inject a PIN in every chip in every phone, even the Android ones, and our security reaches the entire stack. We've created a patching mechanism that will address attacks a lot quicker than others to protect the customer. There are many safeguards and locks in place, but it's not foolproof 100%, nobody can say that.
Walt Mossberg: Are you willing to say you have the most secure Android phone? Is becoming an Android phone maker a path to profitability?
We're probably the same level as Samsung's Knox. The only other commercial phone that can say they have the same or better than us is maybe the BlackPhone.
Android in the enterprise is a very underserved space. With our connection, our accounts, our know-how, it has expanded our servable market. I love BB10, and I win in the very high-end there. But the very high-end is not big. In order to make money in the handset business, I need to expand that pie.
Ina Fried: So the phone's coming out later this year?
Yeah, later this year. We're working with carriers now.
On BlackBerry 10
Ina Fried: Your costs are going to go up maintaining two platforms. Are you committed to BB10 or will it go away if Android does well?
We have two new releases of BB10 coming out to support government and high-security space.
Ina Fried: Are there going to be new BB10 devices in a year or two from now?
Well, that's going to be dictated by business choices.
Walt Mossberg: You're saying you can still do your security magic on other Android phones if you leave the handset biz?
Oh yes, certainly. We've been doing very well increasing Android suppliers on our BES 12 platform. The purchase of Good helps us get more iOS suppliers on our platform.
Ina Fried: With QNX, which became the heart of BB10, you also got a big automotive business. Is that doing well? Are you getting into the next gen of car systems?
The short answer is yes, we're doing very well. We helped Ford and Volkswagen directly, in other capacities our technology was used by other companies to build connected cars. Cars right now have connectibility built in, but they're not really connected. We're focusing on how they can get connected in a secure way.
Chen also addressed a number of questions during the Q&A session, one that stuck out for me personally was 'How do you see the customer, is it consumer or enterprise?'. As I've mentioned a few times now, especially on the BerryFlow podcast, the messaging from BlackBerry isn't always clear in that area and seems to change on a whim, though, Chen did give a decent reply.
We need to prepare ourselves for consumer or enterprise bringing whatever device they want to bring in. Devices are not limited to handsets only. Therefore, we're building a software business that focuses on end-to-end security. As far as the Priv is concerned, the audience goes beyond enterprises. But it will be focused on high-end privacy and productivity.
That of course, led to another question about Priv, and it's pricing at launch. Rumors have placed it on the high-end of the spectrum, and Chen pretty much confirmed that today but made a few notes on the affordability of the device.
High-end price, yeah. We'll make the phone financially affordable to get, whether that's by installments or something else.
All in all, a pretty solid interview even if some of the details are not really new. As expected, Chen did dance around the subject of the future of BlackBerry 10 slightly giving a bit of a non-answer and only dealing with the immediate future being March 2016 when they'll begin rolling out 10.3.3 and later in the year, 10.3.4. Those are the two releases of BlackBerry 10 Chen mentions. Hopefully, Re/Code will have the full video posted up soon. But in the meantime, let us know in the comments what you all thought about the interview.

Hottest day of the year expected
Today will be the hottest day of the year so far as temperatures are predicted to rise above 30C (86F), spelling trouble for rail services and people with respiratory problems.
Sweltering conditions have led rail companies to cancel services as Network Rail warned tracks could buckle in the heat.
Several fast trains from London Paddington were cancelled after Network Rail imposed speed restrictions to protect track points.
A seal cools off at St Mary's Lighthouse in Whitley bay
The rail operator instructed train companies to slow down at vulnerable locations where tracks could buckle.
Some passengers will have to take slower services from the station to Henley-on-Thames and Bourne End, changing at Twyford or Maidenhead.
A spokesman for the company said: "First Great Western is advising passengers that due to the anticipated hot weather Network Rail is to impose a speed restriction in the London Thames Valley area to protect track points on Tuesday June 30.
"As a result there will be no fast trains between London Paddington and Bourne End or Henley-on-Thames from 12:00 until 20:00."
But he emphasised that only six services out of 1,520 had been affected so far.
Health warnings were also issued for people suffering from lung conditions.
Vicky Barber from the British Lung Foundation Helpline said: "During hot weather, the air we breathe has lower moisture levels than usual, which can have a drying effect on our airways. As a result, people with respiratory conditions such as COPD or severe asthma may find it harder to breathe, feel more tired, or find their lungs feeling heavy or tight."
She recommended that people with lung conditions avoid going outside at midday, wear loose clothing and drink plenty of water.
Other vulnerable groups including the elderly and young children have also been urged to stay cool as the hot weather pushes across the UK from Europe.
Dr Angie Bone at Public Health England said there could be more deaths than usual.
She said it seemed "likely" that the Met Office would issue a level 3 heatwave alert - which requires community support for at-risk groups, media alerts about keeping cool and a review of safety at public events. She added: "It is possible that we will see an excess mortality but it is too early to tell.
"We know that high temperatures do have an impact on health, particularly on older people and young children and people with chronic diseases."
The heatwave is being caused by a warm front and tropical continental air mass from Europe pushing across the country, bringing high temperatures, humidity and possibly Saharan sand.
Paul Knightley, forecast manager at Meteogroup, warned that dust - whipped up from the Sahara - is being carried by the wind towards Britain where it could coat cars.
Temperatures are expected to soar again tomorrow - possibly breaking the record for July.
Highest July temperature ever recorded was measured at Wisley in 2006, where the mercury peaked at 36.5C (98F).
There are fears that soaring temperatures could buckle railway lines

Mitochondria are present in all eukaryotic cells: in our cells, in mammalian cells, in the cells of plants and even of fungi. Mitochondria produce energy for cells to function as multicellular organisms, and are known as the "powerhouses" of the cell. Inside mitochondria lie the genetic information for making this energy.
EPFL biophysicist Suliana Manley and her team collaborated with Jean-Claude Martinou's cell biology group from the University of Geneva to look deep within living cells. Inside mitochondria there rests RNA granules that are smaller than the diffraction limit of light, i.e. smaller than one one-thousandth the width of a strand of hair. Using super-resolution microscopy, they discovered that mitochondrial RNA's are packaged into tiny liquid droplets that can fuse together and break apart. The results are published in today's issue of Nature Cell Biology.
"The organization of genetic information contained within mitochondria is highly dynamic thanks to this liquid-like aspect of its RNA granules," explains Manley. "The way they continuously exchange material gives us insight into how mitochondria are able to make sure they have the genetic information they require to produce energy within cells."
What led the scientists to inspect RNA granules is linked to the unique identity of mitochondria. In fact, the mitochondrial genome is independent of the cell's genome, so the genetic identity of the mitochondria is separate from the genetic identity of the cell and the rest of the organism. Mitochondria's genome is only around 16 thousand base pairs long whereas the DNA of the human cell, more than 100,000 times as long, consists of 3 billion base pairs. The mitochondria's genome is inherited from the maternal lineage, so the way your cells produce energy essentially comes from your mother. Mitochondria is hypothesized to have its origins in bacteria: 1.5 billion years ago during the course of evolution, bacteria may have been engulfed by another cell to start an endo-symbiotic relationship; with time, the bacteria evolved to become this highly specialized organelle that produces energy for the cell.
Determining the way mitochondria work is important for understanding how the cell functions, but also for understanding how a cell malfunctions. Especially in cells that require large amounts of energy like nerve and muscle cells, dysfunctional mitochondria can have devastating consequences, resulting in severe disease.

- Full Description
Information retrieval is the science concerned with the effective and efficient retrieval of documents starting from their semantic content. It is employed to fulfill some information need from a large number of digital documents. Given the ever-growing amount of documents available and the heterogeneous data structures used for storage, information retrieval has recently faced and tackled novel applications. In this book, Melucci and Baeza-Yates present a wide-spectrum illustration of recent research results in advanced areas related to information retrieval. Readers will find chapters on e.g. aggregated search, digital advertising, digital libraries, discovery of spam and opinions, information retrieval in context, multimedia resource discovery, quantum mechanics applied to information retrieval, scalability challenges in web search engines, and interactive information retrieval evaluation. All chapters are written by well-known researchers, are completely self-contained and comprehensive, and are complemented by an integrated bibliography and subject index. With this selection, the editors provide the most up-to-date survey of topics usually not addressed in depth in traditional (text)books on information retrieval. The presentation is intended for a wide audience of people interested in information retrieval: undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, lecturers, and industrial researchers.

Marlin Penner completed his PhD at the University of Alberta in Chemistry. He is engaged in postdoctoral research at the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, and in collaboration with a research group at Ben Gurion University of the Negev. Marlin aims to use the tools of synthetic chemistry to explore the underlying mechanisms of recognition of ubiquitin, a protein that plays a critical role in cell behavior. Using his expertise in synthetic organic chemistry as a bridge to the world of biochemistry, he hopes that his fresh approach and the insights gained from his research will lead to a better understanding of and more effective treatment for implicated cellular diseases.

August 9, 2016
MEMO TO: Mayor Barber and Board of Commissioners
FROM: Frank A. Rush, Jr., Town Manager
SUBJECT: Presentation – Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival
I have scheduled time on the Board’s August 9 meeting agenda for the Board to receive a presentation from Alesia Sanderson, Parks & Recreation Director, about the new Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival. The new festival is scheduled for Saturday, August 27 from 11 am – 5:30 pm on the beach strand at the Western Ocean Regional Access. I have scheduled this item for two main reasons: 1) to update the Board and the community on the details of the event to hopefully inspire confidence that it will be produced in a quality, safe manner, and 2) to hopefully generate additional press about the event, which is now just a few weeks away.
Mayor Barber, Town staff, and volunteers have been working since this spring to make the “return of the Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival” a reality this year. The original festival ran for a 20-year period from 1979 – 1999, was held at the Holiday TravLPark, and generated crowds of 10,000 – 15,000 people in mid-May at its peak. The original festival was a successful draw before the peak tourism season began, and in some ways, helped to “put Emerald Isle on the map”.
Feedback received by the Town in recent years has suggested that 1) the Town should consider a high-profile special event in the fall months, and 2) the Town should conduct more events actually on the beach strand. It is with this feedback in mind, and a desire to draw on the nostalgia of the original Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival, that the Town has pursued the production of the new Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival on August 27.
We had originally sought to schedule the 2016 event for late September, however, many leading beach music acts were booked for that time period when serious planning efforts began in May of this year. The weekend of August 27 was available for several leading performers, and is also the weekend right before school begins for 2016 – 2017. That weekend is typically a less busy weekend in Emerald Isle, and we believe that scheduling the new festival for that weekend will achieve our goal to generate additional visitation in Emerald Isle on an otherwise less busy weekend. Our goal for the new Emerald Isle Beach Music Festival is to achieve attendance of up to 10,000 for the 2016 “return”, and all planning efforts have been based on that goal. Assuming a successful 2016 event, we will be seeking to schedule the 2017 festival for some time in September 2017.
As noted on the attached site plan, the musical acts will perform on a newly constructed platform on the dunes at the Western Ocean Regional Access, facing the ocean, with the majority of the crowd located on the beach strand (in accordance with the feedback noted above). Spectators will also be able to congregate in the area of the volleyball courts.
Alesia Sanderson will provide additional detail at the August 9 meeting, however, I have summarized some of the key issues below:
Admission Cost: The event is FREE to the public; there is no admission cost.
Musical Acts: We have a great lineup planned, with 7 acts scheduled over a 6 – 7 hour time frame. As noted on the attached flyer, the lineup includes beach music favorites from yesterday and today.
Stage: A new wooden platform has been constructed specifically for the festival, and after the festival it will be used as an observation deck for patrons of the Western Ocean Regional Access, and perhaps for future EmeraldFest concerts. A professional stage and sound system will be leased for festival, and will be placed on the new wooden platform, providing cover for the performers and presenting a professional appearance.
Movement of Spectators Between Beach and WORA Parking Area: The main steps leading from the restroom and parking area to the beach strand will be closed, and will be incorporated into the stage. The existing handicapped ramp walkway will remain open, and will be the primary travel corridor. A temporary, sand path walkway, delineated with post-n-rope, will be established from the volleyball court area to the beach strand to provide an alternate pedestrian travel route between the beach strand and the parking area.
Alcohol: The new festival will allow the consumption of beer and wine products on the beach strand itself, but not on the upland grounds of the WORA. As is the case every day in Emerald Isle, beer and wine are permitted to be consumed on the beach strand, thus the day of the festival will be no different. Spectators will be permitted to travel through the upland area of the WORA with coolers, etc., however, no consumption is permitted in the upland area. The entire event is a “BYOB” event, and there will be no alcohol sales at the WORA.
Parking: Handicapped parking will be available at the Western Ocean Regional Access, however, no other parking is available at the WORA. Attendees will be permitted to park in the NC 58 right of way, in an identical manner as the annual St. Patrick’s Festival parking. We remain hopeful that many attendees will walk or ride bicycles to the new festival, by way of streets, bike path, and the beach strand.
Traffic: Islander Drive, Louise Avenue, and Boardwalk Avenue will be designated for one-way traffic on the day of the festival to promote continuous flow of traffic. Attendees may be dropped off at the corner of Islander Drive and Louise Avenue, and the driver may then park the vehicle on the NC 58 right of way.
Law Enforcement: EIPD will implement an event operations plan for the new festival, and will be assisted by several other local law enforcement agencies, the State Highway Patrol, NC ALE officers, and the Carteret County Sheriff’s Office. Law enforcement will be dispersed among the crowd and through all areas of the WORA, and will be working hard to keep everyone safe, orderly, and legal. A mobile detention unit staffed with a magistrate will be utilized at the event.
Emergency Medical Services: EIFD and EI EMS will implement an event operations plan for the new festival, and will also be assisted by other local agencies. Lifeguards will also be assigned to the beach strand. Emergency vehicles and equipment will be staged in different locations to enable quick response, avoid traffic bottlenecks, and serve other areas of the Town.
Sponsorships: This event would not be possible without the support of the Crystal Coast Tourism Development Authority, which has provided a $35,000 contribution to support the event. Mayor Barber and volunteers have also secured nearly $12,000 in cash sponsorships from Emerald Isle businesses, and we greatly appreciate their support. Transportation Impact is the presenting sponsor with a $3,000 contribution. There are also other in-kind sponsorships for advertising and equipment.
Food Vendors: There are currently 5 food vendors tentatively lined up to operate in the parking area of the WORA. We made a special effort to first reach out to Emerald Isle businesses, and then Carteret / Onslow food trucks, however, we did not receive the response that we had initially hoped for. We continue to reach out to other food vendors in hopes of expanding the offerings at the festival.
Advertising: Advertising has already begun on regional radio stations, and WITN 7 will also be running television advertisements. This advertising is primarily in the form of in-kind sponsorships, and we have purchased additional print and digital advertising in the Raleigh market. We also continue to promote the event through Town digital media, including website, email newsletter, Facebook, twitter, and the app.
T-Shirts: Emerald Isle Business Association volunteers will be selling festival t-shirts from the gazebo at the WORA for $20 each. We hope to sell 800 shirts.
Trash: Public Works will relocate existing trash containers away from the stage area, and will reposition them on the beach strand. Additional trash receptacles will also be provided, and Public Works staff will be available during the day to assist with trash removal. Public Works will also be focused on cleanup after the event, with a goal to have the beach completely cleaned up that evening.
Insurance: The Town’s general liability policy through the NC League of Municipalities will be in effect, as it is for all special events offered by the Town. We are still considering purchasing an additional one-day event policy for additional protection, and also still considering purchasing an inclement weather policy. Decisions on these issues will be made prior to August 12. Although a large crowd, the beach environment, and alcohol consumption present potential for additional liability, it is important to note that, ultimately, the Town is simply providing a free concert on the beach strand. The Town is not providing or offering any alcohol, and the same alcohol restrictions / allowances that apply everyday will be in effect on August 27. Each attendee will be providing their own alcohol if desired, and will be making their own choices. EIPD and our law enforcement partners will be enforcing all alcohol laws at the festival.
Weather: Emergency personnel are preparing for excessive heat, and ice and water will be available as needed for emergency situations. The biggest uncertainty, as always, is the impact of rain and/or wind. The event is likely to go on as scheduled in the event of light and intermittent rain showers. A more significant and prolonged rain event may result in cancellation. Of course, we remain hopeful that no tropical storms or hurricanes will impact Emerald Isle that weekend. If a tropical storm or hurricane is forecast, a decision to cancel would likely be made a day or two in advance. If the event is cancelled, it will not be rescheduled for 2016. Pray for a beautiful day!
Tides: High tide on August 27 is forecast to occur at Bogue Inlet at approximately 4:30 pm. We are hopeful that it will be a normal high tide, and not unusually high. We expect to have ample room on the beach strand for the estimated attendance, however, an unusually high tide could result in some spectators standing in the wave run-up.
Budget: A copy of the event budget is attached, and the grand total is $61,000. Other than Town personnel expenses associated with the event, there are no Town general tax revenues supporting the event. We hope to realize a small surplus from the event, and any surplus generated will be reserved for the 2017 festival.
We greatly appreciate the TDA funding and the generous sponsorships provided by area businesses to make this event a reality. I also greatly appreciate the hard work of Town staff in planning for the event, in particular Alesia Sanderson’s efforts. We are also fortunate to have great assistance from other members of the planning committee, and I am confident that everyone’s hard work will result in a high quality, successful event on August 27. We remain hopeful that it will bring additional visitors to Emerald Isle that weekend and positively impact the local economy. We are also hopeful that 2016 is just the beginning, and that the event will eventually grow into an annual fall staple in Emerald Isle.
Alesia Sanderson and I look forward to discussing the festival with the Board at the August 9 meeting.

Well, today was the deadline in Georgia to register to vote for the November election, so, according to plan, I lifted my cloak of (ostensible) bipartisan invisibility and switched my bike trailer from its alter-ego guise as an unassuming, mild-mannered "register-to-vote-here" mobile voter registration station to its bold, battle-ready incarnation as a partisan Democrat campaign vehicle - one that I am calling the "Obama Obicycle".
A five-minute test drive around my neighborhood was greeted mostly with honking horns and howls of approval. How sweet it is!
Nevertheless, a car-full of young men, from the suburbs I imagine, one flaunting a McCain-Palin t-shirt, apparently on their way to Little Five Points to sample the pleasures of the degenerate, left-leaning popular culture of which their candidates most certainly disapprove, called out, accusing me of consorting with terrorists, encouraged by the latest Sarah Palin initiated "gutter politics" attack.
What to say? "You guys could have been friendly (I had waved to them), or you could have been assholes. You decided to be assholes, just like your know-nothing attack-dog vice-presidential candidate. Do you have any idea what part of town you are in? Welcome to Atlanta and good luck!"

It’s a very profound feeling. I have had a lot of it over the last few years. Right now life seems so overwhelming that I don’t know what to do. Today I called my doctor and told him I was an alcoholic and really struggling to stay sober. He asked for me to come in for an appointment. As I sat in his office I was scared and full of guilt. He asked why I was there and I told him everything. I asked if there was some sort of medication that could help me stay sober, some sort of magic pill for the cravings or Antabuse. I told him I had looked it up and wanted to see if he thought it could work for me.
What he told me was plain and simple. It’s a pill, it’s not magic, and it won’t stop you from drinking. It may kill you if you drink and take it. You need to just stop drinking. That was all and he sent me on my way.
So that’s it, you just stop forever. How does that work? I’ve tried it so many times and somehow I still end up back at the beginning full of guilt.

There’s so much porn on this planet that it sort of sets a really weird standard for what real sex should look like. But guess what? Real sex looks almost nothing like that: Most of us don’t have 24/7/365 airbrush tans, most of us don’t orgasm at the same time as our partners, most of us are a little awkward and messy, and most of us don’t bang our pizza delivery men. (And if you do, I’m just ordering from all the wrong parlors.)
It’s become one woman’s mission to make sure people learn and accept that real sex is to porn, essentially, as real life is to the movies: Movies and porn are fantasy versions of something real and generally, on the surface, less attractive.
Cindy Gallop would be considered a cougar, and she’s got a decent dose of sexual experience under her fierce and fashionable belt–and she got annoyed that a lot of the real sex she was having with guys seemed almost entirely based on what guys had seen in porn–because guess what? Most women don’t enjoy that in real life, since we need more time (and usually more foreplay) to get us going than the typical wham, bam, thank you ma’am that porn presents. Real sex doesn’t work like that! As she put it, having such easy access to porn teaches guys (and girls!) “that what you see in hard-core pornography is the way that you have sex.” And it’s not.
As a result, Cindy wanted to teach people how real sex looks and works–there are no lighting tricks, no cheesy music, and few to no references to pepperoni, sausage, or “hot ‘n’ ready.” She launched her own website, MakeLoveNotPorn.com, to explain the difference between scripted sex and real sex–and she upped the ante when she launched its companion site, MakeLoveNotPorn.tv, to show the differences between porn and real sex.
On MakeLoveNotPorn.tv, users can pay a fee to upload and/or view videos that real couples submitted of themselves having real sex. Spoiler alert: Real sex looks a lot different, a lot less plastic, and, believe it or not, a lot more fun–people are allowed to talk, giggle, and even make out, because they don’t have directors telling them what to do and when to do it, and there aren’t any fancy editing tricks to show a time lapse or take out uncomfortable or silly moments.
That isn’t to say porn is a bad thing. Think of it like video games: They’re fun to play, but in real life, we can’t solve our problems with hadoukens or buying special armor and casting spells. Similarly, most of us can’t orgasm on command (hell, a lot of us have a hard time with orgasms in general) or get intimate with people we barely know. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t play video games or watch porn–we just need to understand that real life and real sex are a lot different from what comes out of a glowing screen with the push of a button. And if the only sex guys know of comes from porn, they won’t know the right buttons to push during real sex.
Do you think porn sets false expectations for what real sex is like? Do you think guys get the wrong idea about real sex from watching porn? Do you think porn is an accurate representation of what real sex is like? Tell us in the comments!

University enrollment officials say that predictive analytics is not only improving student graduation rates but also bolstering their institutions’ bottom lines.
The use of data analytics tools to identify students at risk hasn’t always been an easy sell with faculty and advisers, administrators from four universities said Tuesday at the South by Southwest EDU 2019 conference in Austin, Texas. But thanks to improved data dashboards, more timely reporting and greater commitments to training, institutions are developing new approaches to mitigate factors that contribute to student dropout rates and intervening to help struggling students faster.
Carolyn Connerat, associate vice provost of enrollment management at The University of Texas at Austin, was among those who said predictive analytics is making a difference. Since 2013, when the university began embracing data analytics tools to better understand how well students were adapting to the rigors of college, graduation rates have risen from 53 percent to nearly 70 percent, she said.
Gains in graduation rates have also translated into enrollment increases as more seats become available to accommodate new students, without having to expand facilities, she said. “When we started the [predictive analytics] initiative, we were enrolling around 7,200 freshmen a year. Now, we’re enrolling close to 8,000 a year,” Connerat said.
At Georgia State University, Timothy Renick, senior vice president for enrollment management and student success, attributed “75 percent of our growth and student retention rates” to the use of predictive analytics.
Renick said GSU has raised its graduation rate by seven percentage points, and even more for lower-income students. He noted that about 60 percent of GSU’s 51,000 students qualify for low-income Pell Grants.
“If you can hold onto students who otherwise are walking away in mass, you’re helping … the fiscal foundation of the institution,” he said. Renick calculated that a 1 percent improvement in retention at GSU translates into a $3 million benefit for the university.
All the difference
Renick said GSU tracks 800 academic risk factors and that 98 percent of those are the same as what the university was tracking previously. The difference now is “we’re letting students know too, and sooner,” he said. One outcome of the analytics, for instance, was a decision to buy each academic adviser a second computer monitor so students could follow their conversations more easily.
Before instituting data analytics disciplines, “We never had the understanding of students struggling early on in the semester and how we can avoid leaving a third of students behind,” he said.
At the University of Central Florida, predictive analytics helped administrators figure out why students in one residence hall year after year had a harder time graduating than students elsewhere on campus. It wasn’t because of more parties, said Ryan Goodwin, director for higher education innovation at UCF.
That residence hall offered the least expensive housing on campus, but also tended to fill up with mostly last-minute enrollees, data showed. Goodwin noted that for every student who drops out for academic reasons, five drop out for financial reasons.
“So that signaled we needed to provide something different in that residence hall. Without analytics, we would have missed the struggle,” he said.
The university also added 16 financial risk factors to its system and worked to sensitize academic advisers to stay alert to financial struggles.
The next level
Analytics also helped administrators identify “toxic pairings” — difficult classes that when taken concurrently tend to cause UCF’s 68,000 students to struggle more than usual.
Insights from analyzing data patterns have also spurred a variety of intervention programs. UT Austin, for instance, developed a program called “Major Switch.” Data analytics helped university faculty and advisers identify students struggling in STEM fields within the first six weeks of classes and alert them that they still had the option to switch majors, Connerat said.
Ninety-five percent of students who opted to switch majors in those circumstances have gone on to successfully complete their studies, compared to 50 percent of struggling students who stuck it out, she said.
Analytics has helped enrollment executives make a stronger case to leadership for more funding for advising support for students, said DeAngela Burns-Wallace, vice provost for undergraduate studies at The University of Kansas. She said it’s also boosted buy-in with faculty by showing them how students are progressing through their curricula.
That’s important, she said, because if faculty members are slow to enter grades, it takes longer to identify students who are struggling. It’s also important, she said, because it gives advisers more time, training and capacity “to bring conversations to the next level.”

Steve Jackson’s 6th Edition of Ogre, a new edition of his first game from 1977, is intended for release later this year.
It will be an over-sized war game, with a double sided hex grid board, 14 sheets of chits and counters, rulebooks, scenarios, and a $100 retail price. Rules and units from G.E.V. and Shockwave included.
There is no way that there is $100 of value in that game. The constructables don’t compare to plastic minatures that you find in cheaper games. Plus, there is just not that much game play in the game.
This was a great $3 game back in the day. I guess SJG is counting on us old guys to pony up $100 for a bit of nostalgia.
If you read the post on the SJG site, there’s a break down of what’s in the box. Sounds like there’s quite a bit of stuff in there
When compared with the standard Eurogame, SJG products are both more expensive and of lesser quality. Such a track record does not inspire confidence that this game will be worth the $100 price tag.
While I understand that it’s not the final product, that component shot is worrisome. Counters that (more-or-less) completely fill a hex make for a very crowded map.
That said, I’m very curious to see it in person.
I saw the break down, and I still don’t see how it can be worth $100. Does this compare to Space Hulk in either game play for components (for instance). But we will see…
I have heard about this game for years, one of those holy grail games. I really hope there are plenty to go around when it comes out. !
I have to say I’m looking forward to this. I played my original $6 copy of OGRE Deluxe into the ground during middle school, and always wished we had more material. The promise of this set coming with all the scenarios, rules, and units from the later expansions and magazine articles is a deal maker.
I really can’t agree with the negativity about, “no plastics,” but maybe that’s just me. The original came with the units on cardstock, and this is certainly a step up. Pretty bits help, but they’re not why I’m buying the game.
That and it’s a giant 12lb box you could beat somebody to death with. That’s always a nice bonus.
