I have another question, where can I ask it?
If you suspect that Blokada blocks less advertisements than earlier, please refresh your lists. To do it, tap on Blacklist, then in the top right corner on the equaliser, choose Refresh filters and tap on Continue. Usually it happens because new servers are added to the existing ones that are not (yet) identified and added to the blacklists, or the new list is not downloaded to your phone, therefore they are not (yet) blocked.
Alternatively you can enable more host lists or add more restrictive filters in the Blacklist menu.
Please note that Blokada uses 3rd party lists, therefore if the app itself worked earlier and blocked ads, without changes it should behave the same way.
If you can see that an app doesn't work as expected, doesn't load its content or something similar misbehaviour is experienced, please go to the main screen, choose Whitelist, at the bottom of the screen tap on the + sign, choose App and type its name. Tap on Save at the end. With this, Blokada won't filter the URLs in this app.
Please note that Blokada 3.4 and earlier releases had a bug which caused that a freshly installed app wasn't recognized in Blokada, therefore they couldn't be set on the Whitelist. This bug is fixed in version 3.5 and newer.
You can block individual website what isn't on a host list. To do it, go to the Blacklist on the main page, tap on the + sign at the bottom of the screen, tap on Host and type in the hostname of the website, without the http and www part (for example: myexample.com).
Blocking ads on YT is very hard because Google uses encryption and randomly generated hosts to serve the ads. Therefore, it's much easier to block ads within the YT app as with an external tool (like Blokada). NewPipe and YouTube Vanced are featureful, great alternatives of the official YouTube application, please check which fits better for you.
There are two common causes for such a situation. First, please check if you have an active VPN connection and if thats Always-on VPN option is enabled. To do it, go to the Settings of your phone, search for VPN in the network section, tap on the gear next to the existing VPN. Disable it, disconnect from the active VPN connection and try to restart Blokada.
If you don't have other VPN connection, check in Blokada if Watchdog is enabled in the Advanced Settings, and if yes, check if you are connected to the internet either with wifi or with mobile data. Blokada won't start if the Watchdog is enabled and you don't have an active internet connection.
If it doesn't help, restart your phone, it also helps sometimes.
As a first step, turn on Keep alive in Blokada. In this case, Blokada will try to stay online, but please note, your system still can effect this behaviour. If you set it, and you still see that Blokada is stopped time after time, check your system's settings and turn off every battery- and memory-optimisation for Blokada. Unfortunately it is different in every system, therefore we cannot say where to do it. Please check your phone's settings. Other source of such behaviour can be that you are using a memory cleaner. Please set Blokada on whitelist or exclude list. If non of this steps helped in your case, please report a bug (see below how to do it).
If you try to import a list (for example EasyList) that works very well with your AdBlock Plus extension on your PC or notebook, Blokada will report an error message. It is because Blokada uses other method to block ads. While ABP blocks and hides elements or parts of the website, Blokada cannot do it because it's not a plugin in the browser, instead it redirects the accesses to the ad-server to a non-routable address (0.0.0.0), therefore it needs a hostname-IP list.
Unfortunately no, it is a system limitation; you can have only one active VPN connection at a time. If you join to an other service, Blokada will exit.
Blacklist: this is the lists of host files containing the servers to block. Please note that using multiple lists can have effect on network and system speed.
Whitelist: the whitelist is the exception list, here you can define hosts that should not be blocked or apps where Blokada won't filter URLs. Blokada is installed with several whitelisted apps by default.
Keep alive: this option is to ensure Blokada is not paused or stopped by the system. Please note your system can overwrite it, make sure your settings will let Blokada run in the background.
Notifications: when enabled, you will be notified when an ad is blocked. It is on by default, but if you get a lot of notifications, turn it off.
Watchdog: when enabled, Blokada will exit if there is no active connection, and start again whenever connection comes back. If disabled, Blokada will always run in the background (even if no network is available). Please note this option may not work on every device.
Start on boot: when enabled, Blokada will start after the system boots up. Please note there are system level configurations for this option, therefore it cannot be guaranteed Blokada can start on boot. In this case, please check your phone's settings. The default configuration is enabled, if you want to start Blokada manually, disable this option.
DNS: if you are suspecting that some websites or services are blocked for you, or you are presuming that your internet provider collects information about your intenet usage, choose a secure DNS machine from the list. By default, Blokada uses the same DNS server/s as your system.
Up to date: if you see it, you are running the most recent version of Blokada. Keep the app up-to-date because it has less bugs and more features!
Check if the VPN key icon is present in the status bar at the top. If not, start Blokada.
Open Blokada and check if it is active and not reporting any errors.
Check if the hosts counter is not equal to zero. If it is, select some blacklist filters so that ads can be blocked. If the counter is still zero, grant storage access permission in the System Settings - Applications - Blokada, then clear data and cache and reboot the device.
Make sure you don't have too many apps in the whitelist - maybe that's why you are seeing ads.
Try resetting your filters (go to the Blacklist screen and choose Restore Defaults from the Quick Actions menu at the top).
If you see ads in your browser, deactivate any kind of traffic compression or optimisation in the browser's settings.
Deactivate Blokada, close it (by swiping it out from the Recents screen), and turn it on again.
If you recently changed your settings (filters, whitelist, etc), remember it takes time before new configuration start working. Give it some time.
Clear app data for Blokada (in system settings), or reinstall it.
Your device may be unsupported. Please check Devices Database.
If none of those steps helped, please report a bug (see below).
The acronym DNS stands for Domain Name System and this servers are responsible to resolve the domain names (for example: myexample.com) to IP addresses, what are used between machines to communicate. Your internet service provider has its own DNS servers; Blokada is configured to use the system defaults. The machines in this list should be used if you are suspecting that your ISP collects logs about your internet usage, you are afraid of some privacy risk or if some websites or services are blocked for you. There is no "best", everything depends on your preferences and location, therefore if you would like to use custom DNS servers, please read their description, search for them on the internet and read the feedbacks.
If your phone runs Andriod 5 or newer, please restart your device. It sounds strange, but sometimes it helps. If that didn't solve the issue, uninstall Blokada and install it again. It can be, that your device is unsupported. Please check Devices Database.
If none of those steps helped, please join to our Telegram chat on go.blokada.org/chat to get help, or report a bug (see below).
Unfortunately no. Some devices may be displaying annoying VPN notification (a key icon) while VPN is active, and it is not possible to hide it. If you can, try updating your device to Android 8 (Oreo), since newer Android versions do not have this status report.
How do I report an issue, idea or suggestion?
If you are experiencing problems, please join to our Telegram chat at go.blokada.org/chat, where our community is happy to help you. Alternatively, just choose the Feedback option from the menu in top right corner and follow the instructions. Please provide as much information as you can and steps to reproduce the same issue - it helps greatly in fixing your problem! If you are a pro user, you can go directly to the issue tracker at GitHub.
No. Blokada does not read or tamper with your private information, it only monitors which hosts your device is making requests towards and blocks the ones matching the filters. Every time Blokada blocks anything, you will see a notification (what you can turn off). Blokada has no access to your encrypted traffic.
No. Depending on your settings the battery impact is minimal, and on most new devices, especially on Marshmallow (Android 6) or newer, you will not notice any battery drain. However, some unlucky devices may experience increased battery drain. Refer to the Devices Database for details.
No. Depending on your settings Blokada can be quite efficient. In fact, both your device's performance and battery life may visibly improve, because Blokada saves your device from downloading and processing content you don't need or care about. However, users with some older devices may experience performance drop. Refer to the Devices Database for details.
Yes! Blokada started as my hobby project, is still mostly developed by me. It's my way of giving back to the community. Blokada is fully open source and it will stay free forever. That said, developing it takes a lot of time, so please consider supporting the project in any way you can (see below).
There are many ways to support Blokada, financially or else. All means of help are very important for the project to exist. Please go to this page for more information, or just join our chat.
If your question is not answered here, please join to our Telegram chat channel on the go.blokada.org/chat link, our community will be there to help you. If it is not convinient for you, use the Feedback option from the top menu, or if you have a more technical question, please go directly to the tracker at GitHub.

When sustained rains saturated the ground and pushed creeks out of their banks earlier this month, Boulder Creek did something it has only done once before, in September 2013.
East of Boulder, near the Wastewater Treatment Plant on 75th Street, Boulder Creek jumped its bank and carved a new channel perpendicular to the plant's main interceptor line, which transports the city's collected wastewater into the facility.
"The concern is that the pipe is not designed to have a river flowing across it," said Jeff Arthur, director of Public Works for Utilities for the city of Boulder. "We basically had a new segment of Boulder Creek flowing over it. The pipe has been there a long time, maybe 50 years, without incident, and now we've had a couple incidents in a short time frame, and, in this most recent one, it was without a huge amount of flow in Boulder Creek."
The damage done on May 9 was repaired a few days later. The main sewer interceptor is slated for serious rehabilitation or replacement anyway, with $10 million budgeted for the project this year.
Following the 2013 flood, the city sent a robot into the sewer line to look for flood debris. Instead, it found significant corrosion.
But now Boulder's public works officials are thinking it might make more sense to install a new interceptor in a different location less vulnerable to floods.
City officials have not determined a new location for the interceptor, nor the total cost for such a project.
It's not clear whether Boulder Creek's behavior and channels in that area have experienced a long-term change as a result of the 2013 floods. The perpendicular flow on May 9 was in a slightly different location than the flow across the interceptor in 2013.
However, Arthur said his department is considering all the options for repairing or replacing the pipe.
"We're going to put something in the ground that is going to last 50 to 100 years, so we want to make sure we have the right design," he said.
This month's heavy rains also increased flow through the wastewater treatment plant from its average of 13 million gallons a day to 50 million gallons or possibly more — that's as much flow as can be measured — for a few hours.
Arthur said that indicates ongoing problems with groundwater pressing into unlined clay pipes once the ground is saturated.
There were a few blown manhole covers between 61st Street and 75th Street, but the city has not heard reports of sewer backups into homes with this month's rains, Arthur said.
During the 2013 flood, that level of flow continued for days, and there were widespread sewer backups. That led the city to raise sewer rates to put more money into lining older pipes.
This year's budget has $2.25 million for lining old clay pipes, which is enough for 100,000 feet of pipe. Before the flood, the city spent around $500,000 a year lining old pipes to keep out groundwater.
"This is reinforcing the learning since 2013 in terms of where to invest the dollars," city spokesman Mike Banuelos said.
After the flood, the city installed flow monitors in parts of the sewer system to identify where there is the most groundwater infiltration and to prioritize pipe-lining efforts.
Arthur said this period of heavy rain provides important information to guide those efforts.
"Floods in Boulder tend to be far enough apart that people forget them, but we have this history of floods in the city and we have a lot of this infrastructure designed to last 50 to 100 years," he said. "We can assume it has to survive one or two floods over its lifetime.
"We're taking this infrastructure that was near the end of its useful life and trying to rehabilitate it in a way that it will last for these conditions."

BAIL:
By: Marcus Jastrow, Lewis N. Dembitz
In English and American law, the obligation of sureties in a sum named, that the person under arrest in a civil or criminal cause will, if set at large, deliver himself up to stand trial and submit to judgment. Such obligation is unknown to Jewish law. There could not be Bail in civil causes, for there was no arrest for debt. In criminal, at least in capital, cases it was the duty of the court to hold the accused "in ward" till his guilt or innocence, and the mode of punishment, should be ascertained. The Talmud (Sanh. 78b) draws this rule from the case of the blasphemer (Lev. xxiv. 12) and of him who gathered sticks on the Sabbath (Num. xv. 34). And as trials were very prompt and speedy—whether the punishment was death or stripes—the hardship of imprisonment without Bail, if the prisoner proved innocent, was not great.
The Talmud (Sanh. 78b) applies the law of imprisonment to one that has beaten or wounded another so sorely as to confine him to his house (Ex. xxi. 18, 19). It comments on the words, "If he rise again and walk upon his staff, then he that smote him shall be quit," thus: "This can not mean that the smiter shall be free from the death penalty; for this he is, of course, not having killed anybody; but that, then, he shall be freed from custody. But the old halakic Midrash Mekilta (Mishpaṭim. vi.) says on this verse: 'You would think that the smiter might furnish sureties and then go at large; but no, we are taught here that he is imprisoned till the wounded man is healed.' In fact, to take Bail while the stricken man may die of his wound, and his smiter thus incur the guilt of blood, would, in spirit and effect, violate the law, 'Ye shall take no ransom for the life of a manslayer' (Num. xxxv. 31); moreover, as a rich man can readily give Bail and the poor man can not, the release of the prisoner on Bail would run counter to that other oft-repeated rule of the Torah, 'One law there shall be to you.'"

\section{Introduction}

The phenomenon of spontaneous symmetry breaking is ubiquitous: many real systems as well as field theoretic models exhibit spontaneous breaking of both discrete and continuous symmetries at zero or sufficiently small temperature. The conventional picture suggests the full symmetry is restored for sufficiently high temperatures. There are also situations when the low-temperature phase  is symmetric but symmetry is broken as the temperature increases. In this case too one normally expects the symmetry to be eventually restored for even higher temperatures, and there are seemingly many theoretical results supporting such a conclusion. Yet as we discuss below they rely on the stringent assumptions that can be evaded. Which raises the question -- is spontaneous breaking that persists to arbitrarily high temperatures possible? In this letter we answer this question by constructing UV-complete conformal field-theoretical models in diverse dimensions which exhibit persistent breaking of both discrete and continuous symmetries.

For lattice systems it is well appreciated the symmetry is restored for temperates
large in comparison with the lattice spacing \cite{bratteli2012operator}. This suggests in effective field theory spontaneous breaking is possible up to UV scale, as illustrated by the UV-incomplete example of \cite{Weinberg:1974hy}.
Yet the lattice-based arguments are not applicable to  UV-complete field theoretic models, which we focus on.
There is also famous  Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem \cite{Mermin:1966fe,PhysRev.158.383} and its generalizations, which rule out the possibility of the longer range order at $T\neq 0$ in a wide class of two-dimensional $d=2+1$ systems. This seemingly prohibit spontaneous breaking of  a continuous symmetry, but here too there are many assumptions and exceptions, starting from the  example of   \cite{PhysRev.176.250}. Importantly to what follows, the original work
 \cite{PhysRev.158.383} already notes the argument may break down if the lattice model exhibits long-range  interactions.
 Thus, there is a phase transition   in a Heisenberg magnet with suitably adjusted long-range interactions, see {\it e.g.,}\  \cite{Halperin_2018} for a recent review on the Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem and its limitations.
This suggests non-local  field-theories, which may result from such lattice models in the continuous limit may be immune to various no-go results.

To better illustrate this idea we briefly mention Coleman's no-go theorem \cite{Coleman:1973ci}, which in $d=1+1$ excludes spontaneous symmetry breaking because  the corresponding Goldstone bosons, being massless, would have infrared divergences. This argument works for the  short-range interactions, whereas as above introduction of the long-range forces allows phase-transitions in the one dimensional systems \cite{Dyson:1968up,Dyson1969,Dyson1971,Laflorencie_2005,PhysRevLett.119.023001}. The no-go results in various dimensions are related and can be evaded simultaneously: our model exhibits  persistent breaking for $1<d<3+1$.

The discussion above mostly applies to continuous symmetries. For discrete symmetries
even less is known. As for continuous symmetries, there is no universal theoretical argument requiring discrete symmetry to be restored at high temperatures. At the same time to the best of our knowledge  there were
no examples of persistent symmetry breaking in $2+1$ dimensions.
In higher dimensions there are CFTs in $d=4-\epsilon$ \cite{Chai:2020zgq,Chai:2020onq,Chai:2020hnu}  and $d=4$   \cite{Chaudhuri:2020xxb,Chaudhuri:2021dsq}  which have some of their internal symmetries broken at arbitrary finite temperature. Yet these models are not free of criticism. In the former case $\epsilon$ can not be taken to one and therefore theories in question are not necessarily unitary \cite{Hogervorst:2015akt}. And the latter case of \cite{Chaudhuri:2020xxb} is inconclusive because of the possible impact of $1/N$ corrections.
We also refer the reader to \cite{Bajc:2021ope}, where asymptotically safe theories \cite{Litim:2014uca} in $d=3+1$ were  considered in the context of persistent symmetry breaking. Another idea  explored in the literature is placing the theory in a curved spacetime. Thus,  the $O(N)$ model in AdS evades the Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem \cite{Carmi:2018qzm} but at high temperatures the symmetry is restored.
There are other AdS/CFT candidates of persistent order \cite{Buchel:2009ge,Donos:2011ut,Gursoy:2018umf,Buchel:2018bzp,Buchel:2020thm,Buchel:2020xdk,Buchel:2020jfs} which are perturbatively stable, but the symmetric phase has smaller free energy.\footnote{See \cite{Buchel:2021ead} where the holographic conformal order is studied on $S^3$.} Other non-unitary models of persisten breaking in the presence of  chemical potential include \cite{Hong:2000rk,Komargodski:2017dmc,Aitken:2017ayq,Tanizaki:2017qhf,Dunne:2018hog,Wan:2019oax}. We should also mention the renowned Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless  transition \cite{Berezinsky:1970fr,Berezinsky:1972rfj,Kosterlitz:1973xp}  as an example evading the Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem yet not leading to persistent symmetry breaking.

The main goal of this letter is to construct an example which would be free of aforementioned deficiencies.
Our model is a conformal, and hence UV-complete vector theory  which breaks discrete symmetry at finite  temperature $T$. Because of scale invariance this breaking persists to arbitrary high $T$. The result holds true in $2+1$ and extends to other $1<d<3+1$ where the model is manifestly stable.\footnote{Stability suggests the model is unitary; it would be interesting to confirm this by calculating anomalous dimensions at the IR fixed point. We also expect the fixed point to be a CFT, but since our model is non-local strictly speaking this has to be verified along the lines \cite{Paulos:2015jfa}.}  Generalizations of our model exhibit persistent breaking of continuous symmetries in $d=2+1$ and beyond \cite{followup}. Our construction bypasses  the Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem due to  its non-local nature. It can be viewed as two weakly interacting copies of the Long Range Ising (LRI) model \cite{Dyson:1968up,PhysRevLett.29.917,PhysRevB.8.281}.\footnote{For original and recent studies of the LRI model see   \cite{Honkonen_1989,LEGUILLOU1990559,El-Showk:2013nia,PhysRevLett.89.025703,Picco:2012ak,Blanchard:2012xv,El-Showk:2013nia,Angelini_2014,Paulos:2015jfa,Defenu_2015,Behan:2017dwr}.}

\section{The model}
To begin with, we introduce our model.
Consider the following Gaussian action in $1\leq d < 4$ dimensions,
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber
 S_0= &\mathcal{N}_\phi& \int d^d x_1 \int d^d x_2 {\vec \phi(x_1)\cdot \vec\phi(x_2) \over |x_1-x_2|^{2(d-\Delta_\phi)}} + \\
  &\mathcal{N}_\sigma& \int d^d x_1 \int d^d x_2 {\sigma(x_1) \sigma(x_2) \over |x_1-x_2|^{2(d-\Delta_\sigma)}} ~.
\label{action}
\end{eqnarray}
The fundamental fields include  scalars   $\vec \phi$ and $\sigma$ transforming in vector and singlet representations of $O(N)$.
The model also admits a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry that flips the sign of $\sigma$.
The coefficients $\mathcal{N}_\phi$ and $\mathcal{N}_\sigma$ are fixed so that the two-point functions of $\vec\phi$ and $\sigma$ are canonically normalized.
For brevity we suppress vector indices in what follows. The scaling dimensions of the generalized free fields are chosen to be
\begin{equation}
 \Delta_\phi={d-\epsilon_1\over 4}\,,  ~ \Delta_\sigma={d-\epsilon_3\over 4},
\end{equation}
with $\epsilon_{1,3}\ll 1$, so that the following quartic operators become weakly relevant
\begin{equation}
\label{Oi}
 \mathcal{O}_1= (\phi^2)^2~,\, \, \mathcal{O}_2= \phi^2 \sigma^2 ~,\, \,  \mathcal{O}_3= \sigma^4,
\end{equation}
with scaling dimansions $\Delta_1=4\Delta_\phi$, $\Delta_2=2(\Delta_\phi+\Delta_\sigma)$ and $\Delta_3=4\Delta_\sigma$.
This model is conformal, we list OPE coefficients $C_{ij}^k$ and other technical details in Supplemental Material.

Next, we consider the following deformation
\begin{equation}
 S=S_0 + \sum_{i=1}^3 {g_i \mu^{\epsilon_i} \over N} \int d^dx \, \mathcal{O}_i(x)  ~,
 \label{Sdeform}
\end{equation}
where $\epsilon_i\ll 1$.\footnote{Note that $\epsilon_2=(\epsilon_1+\epsilon_3)/2$.} It induces an RG flow of the form
\begin{equation}
 \mu {dg_i\over d\mu} = -\epsilon_i g_i + {\pi^{d/2} \over N\Gamma\({d\over 2}\)} \sum_{j,k} C_{jk}^i g_j g_k + \ldots
 \label{RGflow}
\end{equation}
As we argue below, for $N> 5$
there is a fixed point with $g_2<0$. Moreover, the IR CFTs with negative
$g_2$ are stable. They define a class of theories with the persistent symmetry breaking.

To understand the unbroken symmetries of the IR critical point at finite temperature
we consider the effective potential, $V_\text{eff}$, for the zero mode.  To leading order in $\epsilon_i$, thermal
fluctuations simply induce quadratic terms in addition to the quartic potential  \reef{Sdeform},
\begin{eqnarray}
\nonumber
 V_\text{eff}(\phi,\sigma; \beta)= \mathcal{M}_\phi(\beta) \phi^2 + \mathcal{M}_\sigma(\beta) \sigma^2
 +  \\ {g_1 \mu^{\epsilon_1}\over N} \mathcal{O}_1+ {g_2 \mu^{\epsilon_2}\over N} \mathcal{O}_2
 + {g_3 \mu^{\epsilon_3}\over N} \mathcal{O}_3  + \mathcal{O}(\epsilon_i^2) ~, \label{potential}
\end{eqnarray}
where
\begin{eqnarray}
  \mathcal{M}_\phi(\beta) &=& 2 {g_1\mu^{\epsilon_1}\over N}\Big(1 +{2\over N}\Big) \langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta
  + {g_2\mu^{\epsilon_2}\over N} \langle \sigma^2\rangle_\beta ~,
  \nonumber \\
   \mathcal{M}_\sigma(\beta) &=&  {g_2\mu^{\epsilon_2}\over N} \langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta
   +6\,{g_3\mu^{\epsilon_3}\over N}\langle \sigma^2\rangle_\beta~.
   \label{M}
\end{eqnarray}
As shown in the Supplemental Material, thermal expectation values of the generalized free fields are given by
\begin{equation}
\label{tev}
\langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta=N {2\,  \zeta(2\Delta_\phi)\over \beta^{2\Delta_\phi}},\quad
\langle \sigma^2\rangle_\beta={2\,  \zeta(2\Delta_\sigma)\over \beta^{2\Delta_\sigma}}
 \end{equation}
which follow straightforwardly from the thermal Green's function. Obviously, full $O(N)\times\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry is preserved by the minimum of the potential at zero temperature.
However, the finite temperature effects might break it if $ \mathcal{M}_\phi<0$ or  $\mathcal{M}_\sigma<0$.
If this happens, the higher order perturbative corrections cannot restore the symmetry, because the higher loop
contributions to $\mathcal{M}_\phi, \mathcal{M}_\sigma$ are suppressed by higher powers of $\epsilon_i$,
whereas the terms with higher powers of fundamental fields are subdominant in the vicinity of the origin.
To establish symmetry breaking at finite temperature, it is therefore sufficient  to show that the model
admits a fixed point where one of the masses  becomes negative.

To ensure stability of the model it is necessary to satisffy $g_1, g_3\geq 0$, while  $g_2$ could be negative provided
 $4g_1g_3\geq g_2^2$.
If all $g_i$ are positive, $\mathcal{M}_\phi, \mathcal{M}_\sigma$ are positive as well, the potential is minimized at the origin $\phi=\sigma=0$
and the symmetry is restored. The only scenario
of symmetry breaking is therefore when  $g_2<0$.
The RG flow \reef{RGflow} terminates at a weakly interacting IR fixed point in the vicinity of the original Gaussian theory.
At the critical point at leading order in $\epsilon_i$ the couplings satisfy
\begin{eqnarray}
\epsilon_1 g_1&=& {\pi^{d/2} \over N\Gamma\({d\over 2}\)} \big( C_{11}^1 g_1^2 + C_{22}^1 g_2^2   \big) ~,
\nonumber \\
\epsilon_2 g_2&=& {\pi^{d/2} \over N\Gamma\({d\over 2}\)} \( 2 \, C^2_{12} \, g_1 g_2 + C^2_{22} g_2^2
+ 2\,C^2_{23} g_2g_3\)~,
\nonumber \\
 \epsilon_3 g_3&=& {\pi^{d/2} \over N\Gamma\({d\over 2}\)} \(C_{22}^3 \, g_2^2 +  C_{33}^3 \, g_3^2  \)~.
 \label{fp}
\end{eqnarray}
There is always a trivial fixed point with $g_1= {\Gamma\({d\over 2} \) \over 8 \pi^{d/2}} {N\over N+8} \epsilon_1$,
$g_2=0$ and $g_3 = {N \Gamma\({d\over 2} \) \over 72\pi^{d/2}} \epsilon_3$.
 It represents two decoupled theories: the so-called Long Range Ising model \cite{Paulos:2015jfa} and its $O(N)$ generalization.
This fixed point was recently studied in, {\it e.g.,}\  \cite{Behan:2017dwr}.

To simplify the analysis and illustrate  the main idea in what follows we consider only a particular case of equal $\epsilon_i=\epsilon$.
The  case of non-equal $\epsilon_i$ is similar and also admits persistent symmetry breaking. It is also convenient to  rescale the couplings
$g_i = \tilde g_i {\Gamma\({d\over 2} \) \over \pi^{d/2}} \epsilon_i$.
Before proceeding with the case of finite $N$ we take infinite $N$ limit. In this case the equations \eqref{fp} drastically simplify yielding the conformal manifold -- a one-parameter family of
fixed points
\begin{eqnarray}
 \tilde g_1= {1 \over 8} \,, \quad
 \tilde g_3=2 \, \tilde g_2^{\, 2}, \label{family}
\end{eqnarray}
depicted in Fig.~\ref{fig:parabola}.
For the negative branch $\tilde{g}_2=-2\sqrt{\tilde{g}_1\tilde{g}_3}$ the  effective potential degenerates into
\begin{eqnarray}
 \label{eff_pot}
  V_\text{eff}(\phi, \sigma; \beta)= {\mu^\epsilon \over N} \( 2 \sqrt{g_1} \langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta\,  x+ x^2\) ~,\\
x=\sqrt{g_1} \phi^2 - \sqrt{g_3} \sigma^2.
\end{eqnarray}
The minimum is reached at
\begin{equation}
 \sigma^2 =\sqrt{{g_1\over g_3}} \( \phi^2+ \langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta\).
 \label{moduli}
\end{equation}
This is a one-dimensional family of vacua
with  the non-zero expectation value of $\sigma$, signaling spontaneous symmetry breaking. For positive $g_2$ and $\langle \phi^2\rangle_\beta$ only $\sigma=0$ is admitted.
\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[width=0.49\textwidth]{parabola}
\caption{Fixed points in the $g_2-g_3$ plane. Orange line shows a continuous family of solutions \eqref{family} emerging in the infinite $N$ approximation. Black
dots are the asymptotic locations of fixed points  \eqref{oneoverN} in the limit of large $N$. Blue points are the solutions of \eqref{fp} for $N\leq 200$. }
\label{fig:parabola}
\end{figure}

From the discussion above it is clear negative $g_2$ is necessary for symmetry to be broken.
Hence  the crucial question is if the  fixed point(s) with $g_2<0$ survive in the finite $N$ regime.
Before proceeding with an arbitrary $N$ we employ $1/N$ expansion to find, in addition to \eqref{family},  the consistency condition
\begin{eqnarray}
\label{oneoverN}
4\tilde{g}_2^2+2\tilde{g}_2-{3\over 4}=0.
\end{eqnarray}
Hence at large but finite  $N$ the continuous family \eqref{family} collapses into two solutions, one with positive and one with negative $g_2$.
Upon taking finite $N$ corrections into account  degeneracy $4g_1 g_3=g_2^2$ is lifted.
Minimization of the potential  \eqref{potential} yields
\begin{equation}
  \left(\begin{array}{c}\phi^2 \\ \sigma^2 \end{array}\right) = {-N\mu^{-\epsilon} \over 4g_1g_3-g_2^2}
  \left(\begin{array}{cc}2g_3 & -g_2 \\-g_2 & 2g_1\end{array}\right)
  \left(\begin{array}{c} \mathcal{M}_\phi \\ \mathcal{M}_\sigma\end{array}\right),
    \label{vacuum}
\end{equation}
provided resulting $\phi^2$ and $\sigma^2$ both are positive. Yet this is never the case for any solutions of \eqref{fp}.
The true minimum of the potential is therefore achieved either at $\phi^2=0$ or $\sigma^2=0$. For all solutions of \eqref{fp} $\mathcal{M}_\phi>0$ but
$\mathcal{M}_\sigma$ become negative for the branch with negative $g_2$ and  $N>17$. In these cases the minimum is achieved at
\begin{eqnarray}
\left(\begin{array}{c}\phi^2 \\ \sigma^2 \end{array}\right) =    {-N\mu^{-\epsilon} \over 2 g_3}   \left(\begin{array}{c} 0 \\  \mathcal{M}_\sigma  \end{array}\right) ~.
\end{eqnarray}
Clearly, $\sigma^2$ is strictly positive, indicating symmetry breaking.

\section{Conclusions}
To summarize, the model \eqref{action} with the choice $\epsilon_i=\epsilon \ll 1$ for finite $N$ has two different IR fixed points,
and for  $N>10$ one of them has negative $g_2$.
The fixed points with $g_2<0$ and  $N>17$ exhibit  symmetry breaking at arbitrary non-zero temperature
\begin{equation}
 O(N)\times \mathbb{Z}_2 \quad \to \quad O(N)~.
\end{equation}
The behavior for non-equal small $\epsilon_i$ is qualitatively similar.

The model \eqref{action} admits a straightforward generalization to two Gaussian free fields in the vector representations of $O(N_1)$ and $O(N_2)$.
The example in this note corresponds to $N_2=1$ case. Deforming this theory by weakly relevant quartic operators and following the
same steps as above, one finds IR fixed points which exhibit spontaneous breaking of the global continuous symmetry at finite temperature.
In $2+1$ dimensions it is therefore an example of persistent breaking of a continuous global symmetry,
which bypasses the Coleman-Hohenberg-Mermin-Wagner theorem \cite{Mermin:1966fe,PhysRev.158.383,Coleman:1973ci} by virtue of being a CFT with long-range interactions. We will discuss this case in detail in \cite{followup}. Our non-local $O(N)\times \ensuremath{\mathbb Z}_2$ model is similar to that one studied in \cite{Chai:2020zgq,Chai:2020onq}. It would be also interesting to explore if they are related in the  large $N$ limit.

Our findings clearly show persistent breaking is possible in the UV-complete  yet non-local models. This raises the question if non-locality is truly necessary, i.e.~if there could be UV-complete unitary {\it local} field theoretic models in $d=2+1$ exhibiting persistent breaking of  discrete symmetries. It is an important open question to construct such an example or rule out this possibility.\\

Pottery Mark on Base of Teapot:- I received this from my grandmother before she died years ago. Could you give me any information about it?
Many thanks for your query and photo. Unfortunately, I can't see the impressed makers mark on the photo so am unable to help.
Please send in another form with the words that are impressed on the base of the teapot and I will try to help.
Case possibly solved! Melissa (at least I am guessing Melissa because the name box wasn't signed) has posted some brilliant work on this one!
Scroll down to the comments link at the bottom of the page to see.
I have a strong hunch this is an Arthur Wood teapot.
It is marked 5113. The shape of the base is identical to Mrs. Smoak's 5114 teapot. You'll notice that "Made in England" and the pattern name Monarch are impressed. The Arthur Wood mark is printed on and somewhat blurry.
An identical 5113 teapot is listed on ebay. The seller remarks that it looks like it should be marked Arthur Wood, but isn't. Same mark as Mrs. Smoak's teapot.
http://www.replacements.com has a listing for Arthur Wood pattern 5114. Of course it is one of the few patterns they don't have a picture for! But it is described as "pink rose, gold lines." If you browse through the Arthur Wood pattern pictures, they're almost all teapots. Apparently a specialty.
Take these clues for what you will, hope they help!
Hi Peter, yes it was me who posted!
1928 to 1989 traded as Arthur Wood & Sons Ltd. Since 1989 part of Price & Kensington Potteries, Longport. The company specialised in making teapots."
Great! I thought it was your post - who else could solve all those tricky ones with so little to go on. I think your hunch is right about Arthur Wood.
can any one help. i have a pot thats looks like a gravy boat. The kitemark on the bottom is price kensington made in england 31 49 can any one give me some history on it the colour is Blue and Gold.
Price & Kensington, Longport, was founded in 1962 from an amalgamation between Price Bros. (Burslem) Ltd. and Kensington Pottery. Much of the Grade II listed factory site is dilapidated and unused today, but there apparently is a shop open on the site. I don't know if that means the factory is still in production.
Note the sign "Price's National Teapots" in the last pic. Possibly a specialty of Price Bros. that carried over to the new, combined company?
can anyone tell me how to date a teapot I have. It is definetly price brothers and it is brown with a whiteish top and the base has white leqves on it and it loks like clusters of a blue fruit.
I have a price kensington teapot made in England no. 2667. Have been unable to find it. It has square handle, trimmed in gold with blue and pink roses.
I also have a Hand painted motorbike, with rider, made by Price Kensington. I have no idea of value. It appears to be in pretty much mint condition.
Hi. I have 3 Price Bros Pottery Dogs. a, A white scottie/Highland terrier. b, a black Poodle c, A wired haired terrier. they are approx. 12inches high and are in very good condition. I can't seem to find any information with regards to these figures. Can you shed any light on them for me please? regards, Dorothy.
Arthur Wood and Sons closed their doors in 2003. The new owners moved out of the U.K.

Glints today announced raising US$475,000 in an oversubscribed seed round. The 21-year-old founders are the youngest graduates of JFDI accelerator in Singapore.
Glints is an online platform that wants to bridge the gap between education and employment for young people focussed on career discovery and development.
"We were initially aiming for US$400,000… We turned away about US$250,000. We didn't want to raise so much money right now," Oswald Yeo, Co-founder, Glints told e27.
"Definitely there was a lot of societal and family pressure, but eventually we decided that this is a really good opportunity for us and we want to solve a huge global problem that we're really passionate about," he added.
The round saw participation from 500 Startups, SPH Media Fund, Singapore Infocomm Investments (IIPL), 8 Capita, Pix Vine Capital, and other private investors including John Tan and Darius Cheung.
It is the first time that IIPL has invested in a seed-stage startup.
The three co-founders left computer science degrees at Ivy League universities in the US after just one semester to pursue the startup. Investor interest was so high that some had to be turned away.
"There were a lot of questions asked [from parents] about why we're doing this, because it was pretty good schools we were giving up… This was even after we had raised the money," Yeo said.
"I guess this is a very traditional Asian mentality, as opposed to our friends and professors in the US universities who were very supportive and happy for us," he added.
Glints says that it offers employers an 'innovative recruiting tool' to hire talent easily and quickly, and that they pay only after relevant candidates have been matched.
Yeo and his co-founders Seah Ying Cong and Looi Qin En may be the youngest entrepreneurs in the region to raise VC funding.
Existing customers include big brands such as EasyTaxi, Redmart, Adidas and Puma. At present, it has attracted 600 companies and 7,000 students to the Beta.

Oswald said the the entrepreneurial culture of the West Coast US opened up their minds to the possibilities. He also thanks JFDI for helping them get 'so far, so soon'.
His advice to peers: Start early, don't wait.

A new report has found that Kansas City credit scores are up, meaning that consumers are gaining a better grasp on their credit card debt. The average increased to 679, three points higher in July. Nationally, the average credit score only hovered around 668, putting Kansas City residents in better financial shape than those in other areas of the country.
U.S. credit card debt dropped 1 percent in June, according to the Kansas City Business Journal. New data from CreditKarma, a consumer credit advocate, found that the credit card debt rate is almost 14 percent higher than July 2009, however.
Consumers looking to increase their credit scores are advised to repay their debt in a timely manner. Late payments on loans or credit cards can damage a credit history over time. Debt consolidation is another option for consumers looking to lower their monthly payments. By combining debt and obtaining a lower interest rate, borrowers can regain their footing financially and prevent the situation from happening in the future.


Cake is a solid block used as food and can be used multiple times. Cake cannot be eaten while being held, instead it must be placed on a suitable surface such as a block. Slices are removed each time the cake is used, and breaking the cake block or the block underneath it will destroy the cake and not return anything.
Notch stated if Minecraft won the 2010 Indie of the Year Awards, he would add cake to Minecraft. When he won, it was added on 13 January 2011, in the Beta 1.2 update. Before the Adventure Update it healed the player.

Feature Friday: The NFL on Twitter
Last night was a revelation for me. I'm not joking. I wasn't really expecting to be blown away by the experience of watching football on Twitter. I was.
I installed the new Twitter app on our AppleTV and watched the entire Jets Bills game on Twitter last night. It looks like this on the TV in our family room:
I was talking to folks on Twitter throughout the game and many said that they don't understand the difference between having the tweets flowing up on the screen vs on your phone.
For me, it's a huge difference. You can watch the game and follow the conversation about it without having your head in your phone.
But there is so much more Twitter can do to make this experience even better.
For starters, I would like to be able to log into the Twitter AppleTV app and then have options to only see tweets from people in my timeline or to have those highlighted or prioritized.
And, I would like to be able to use the Twitter app on my phone to control the AppleTV Twitter app like the Apple Remote app controls the AppleTV. Then I could tweet from the AppleTV app and be able to reply and engage right up on the screen.
I expect Twitter to showcase all sorts of live sports in the coming months in their apps. You can watch these events on your phone in your Twitter app. Or you can watch them on AppleTV and XBox and, I think one other device. I expect Twitter to add apps for other devices as well.
Everyone here at AVC knows I am a huge fan of Twitter and very long on the stock. So take all of this in that context. I think the addition of live content to Twitter is a game changer for them. It amplifies what is unique and different about Twitter and the experience is fantastic. Well done Twitter.


Canisteo Village Hall is located at 35 Main Street, Canisteo, NY 14823; phone: 607-698-4211. The village was incorporated in 1873.
Canisteo is an Iroquois word that literally translates into "board on the water," an appropriate name for a village located along the Canisteo River that had lumbering as its first major industry. There was a previous settlement at the location dating back to the late 17th century that had been a haven for miscreants until the inhabitants were routed by a French Expeditionary force in 1690. The Village of Canisteo was officially resettled after the American Revolution by a small group of land speculators from the Wyoming Valley in Pennsylvania who bought the rights to the village and surrounding lands in 1789 from the Phelps and Gorham Company in Canandaigua. As settlement and deforestation escalated, small industry and agriculture replaced lumber as Canisteo's economic base by the mid 19th century. Agriculture became the dominant industry in the subsequent decades and by the early 20th century, Canisteo was a major supplier of dairy and farm products for New York City and other markets that were shipped by rail. The Erie Railroad established a major railroad center six miles to the north of Canisteo in the City of Hornell. Conisteo was linked to Hornell by both railroad and trolley lines, allowing for the more convenient moving of people and goods between these two communities and beyond.

There is something about being in the wilderness that facilitates connections…not the wifi connection that you're normally searching for, but the kinds of connections that much of our society no longer strives to seek out. We try to pretend that it has nothing to do with there being no 'app' to make the latest version of your trendy gadget reliably invincible in the face of frothing rapids, rambunctious water fights, or feisty fish. While that may be a piece of it, I think that a bigger part is that rivers and the people who chase them are wild, and things that are wild tend to quiet the less important things in life.
These reflections always catch me by surprise while spending extended durations outdoors. Last week as we prepared piles of gear and loaded our boats on a trailer to head down to the Owyhee River, the "what did I forget to pack" game dominated my thoughts. Those things that I was bringing with me, the items of organization and routine, were managing to crowd out the excitement of the adventure we were embarking on.
The Owyhee River, dubbed the Grand Canyon of Oregon, has quite a majestic reputation associated with it. Stories of incredibly colored canyons, shy wild life unaccustomed to human presence, and rapids recalled in all of their glory had been handed down to me from the well seasoned boaters that have mentored me in my guiding career. However, due to unreliable water flows in the last decade, most plans to visit the Owyhee have been thwarted in the weeks prior to launch. With each failed attempt, the pedestal on which the Owyhee sat continued to grow.
With the amazing snow pack that this winter has brought though, the Owyhee once again is being presented with dependable water levels and I was beyond thrilled for a chance to participate in a staff training there this spring. I was finally able have a chance to experience this legendary place and to make my own small story in its great abyss.
Pushing off the banks at the Rome put in, loaded with sleeping bags and paco pads, spare oars and spare batteries and a spare dutch oven, all of the knives and slotted spoons and the specific number of mixing bowls that the packing list required, the whole kit and caboodle, we felt as though we were carrying everything that we could possibly need with us.
And to be honest, that spare dutch oven came in handy when Gianni spoiled us and secretly made a pineapple upside down cake while the rest of the guides were cooking dinner and engaging in a very competitive round of spike ball on the beach. Those paco pads made us sleep much better than your average baby after long days of basking in the sun and craning our heads to spot the eagles soaring above us and each new set of geological wonders as we rounded the river bends. The spare batteries helped guide us along the uneven trail for a late night dip in the hot springs and a sunrise summit overlooking that last stretch of wilderness on the final morning.
But do we really need those things? A set number of trash bags or an extra set of shoes? Our towels, that favorite camp chair, even our beloved fire pan? The things that we carry with us are for comfort. The 'things' that we need, that we truly can't live without, are those connections with the people and the world around us. The people who are up at the crack of dawn making a giant pot of coffee, the ones inviting everyone on a sunset hike up a cliff or asking me what animal I'm most like, followed by what makes me most nervous in life. My news comes from current event discussions with fellow rafters rather than a news feed. On the river, I'm participating in the most exhilarating things that I can imagine in life surrounded by the most breathtaking settings, and Facebook rarely sees any of it.
The wildness of these trips…so removed from the things that we give so much attention in life but give us so little in return…wraps us up in its long days, forging a different kind of relationship with new friends and old companions, deep conversations and echoing laughter, cascading water and pebble paved pools. It is the most intoxicating thing that I've ever experienced. So step away from the Iphone, do your 'turn up' on that water bottle and get outside, because there's no app for embracing life.

Borrowing a small amount does not have to be difficult. Yet many people today are under the assumption that borrowing extra money is not possible for them. This often has to do with the strict conditions that are applied by regular lenders. Fortunately, there are now also opportunities to borrow money from alternative lenders, so that you can arrange your money affairs with a paper-free loan without any fuss!
For cash loan direct lender we refer to get it from Purple. This means that you can arrange the loan application completely online with this lender and often within 5 minutes. That is because fuss and paperwork are simply left out. Of course, you always have to take into account the (legal) conditions that apply and the fact that they may differ from provider to provider. To find a suitable loan it is therefore important that you always read in and take no risks.
How many euros can I take out a paper-free loan?
You have to take into account that with these loans on the internet you only allow you to borrow small amounts in connection with the security risks. Although the maximum amount to be borrowed may differ per provider, in most cases, it concerns loans from 50 to about 1000 euros, where you yourself can determine the exact height. So you can borrow 175 euros for a night out, 500 euros for purchase on payment or 700 euros to pay overdue bills for example. You do not have to share the reason for borrowing with the lender with these loans.
– Read the conditions carefully and make sure you can comply with them. Also, calculate whether you can have the borrowed money available again on time.
– In most cases, you will receive money soon, sometimes on the same day!


TAROUBA, Trinidad – WINDIES opener, Hayley Matthews, has a good feeling about the upcoming, first stand-alone, ICC World Women's T20 Championship.
"Playing in front of our home crowd, on such a momentous occasion, will be amazing!" Matthews said in excitement, referring to the tournament which will be played in Guyana, St. Lucia and Antigua from November 9 – 24.
Considering her most recent innings in the same competition (India, 2016) was a match-winning 66 (45 balls) in the finals against a strong Australia team, who can blame her?
For the past 5 months, the WINDIES Women have been involved in high performance camps in Antigua. Hayley not only sees the hunger for success in her fellow players' attitudes, but she has also watched their (and her own) skills develop immensely over that period.
The WINDIES Women are currently involved in the Sandals International Home Series versus South Africa Women. After drawing the ODI segment of the series 1-1 in Barbados, the ladies managed to win the first T20 there, before moving on to Trinidad and winning the second. The third T20I was abandoned at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy (Trinidad), due to the outfield being soggy in critical areas.
The ladies will be looking to end the possibility of a draw in the 5-match series tomorrow (Thursday, October 4), when both teams meet again at the same venue.

Lobbyist of the Day: Jon Stewart Chases Down Senators to Gather Support for 9/11 First Responders
Via CatchTheAction
Jon Stewart may be off of television, but he's not out of politics.
He's currently lobbying members of Congress to renew a compensation package for the first responders who braved their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. You can see him chase down Nebraska Sen. Deb Fischer, trying to gather her support for the bill.
He also had some stern words to say, according to CBS, at a Sept. 16 rally.
During a rally in front of the U.S. Capitol, flanked by law enforcement representatives and members of New York's congressional delegation, Stewart said he's "embarrassed" it's taken a public lobbying for Congress to "do what's right" and renew the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act.
"I'm here today basically to apologize," he began. "I want to apologize to all of the men and women, the first responders, that you had to come down here today. I'm embarrassed. I'm embarrassed for our country. I'm embarrassed for New York. I'm embarrassed that you, after serving so selflessly with such heroism have to come down here and convince people to do what's right for the illnesses and difficulties that you suffered because of your heroism and because of your selflessness."
"Nobody had to lobby you to rush to those towers on that day," recalled Stewart, who interviewed several first responders during his time at the Daily Show and has been active in 9/11 charities.

Nazi Party Lobbyist of the Day
Just what the capitol needed -- a lobbyist from the American Nazi Party. John Taylor Bowles, the National Socialist Movement's presidential nominee in 2008, registered this week to lobby for "political rights and ballot access laws," according to the registration form, which also lists as "general lobbying issue areas": accounting, agriculture, clean air and water, health issues, the Constitution, immigration, manufacturing, retirement, and civil rights.
Ummm... civil rights? Really?

It's happened to all of us—you're in the shower and inspiration strikes. You struggle to remember when you get out. Sometimes you're successful, other times, maybe not—but why is the shower such a prime place for inspiration? Let's take a look, and see how you can harness that brilliance other times, too.
It wouldn't be an understatement if I said that many of my best article ideas came in the shower, and I know the same is true for many of my colleagues. We all deal with that in different ways (and we'll get to some of those methods later) but first, let's look into why inspiration seems to strike in the shower of all places. We've touched on the science of inspiration (and how to make it work for you) in the past, and some of that applies here. Let's explore how inspiration strikes, other places we tend to be inspired, and some ways to tap into that creativity and harness it whenever you need to.
So why do we always seem to have great ideas in the shower? The short answer is that it's all about meditation—or at least, putting our minds in a semi-meditative state. In the shower, you have an established routine. Your mind is free to wander while your body goes through the motions. It's also a relaxing experience, and the combination of those two things—along with some brain chemistry that explains why taking a good shower feels so refreshing—are the perfect environment for ideas to spring forth.
There haven't been a lot of experiments on why we get random insights, but psychology does have a theory that describes a mental state that seems to foment these kinds of thoughts. It's called the default mode network.
The common thread in these activities is they are physically or mentally active, but only mildly so. They also need to be familiar or comfortable enough that you stay engaged but not bored, and last long enough to have an uninterrupted stream of thought.
Kounios explains that our brains typically catalog things by their context: Windows are parts of buildings, and the stars belong in the night sky. Ideas will always mingle to some degree, but when we're focused on a specific task our thinking tends to be linear.
In short, even things that you see everyday can suddenly inspire you with a new and fresh idea when the time and atmosphere are right. We touched on this point briefly when referencing a piece by Leo Widrich over at the Buffer blog on the same topic.
Leo leads us to a point that's important to remember—it's not just showering where this kind of relaxed, inward-thinking brilliance happens. Any time you're both relaxed, distracted, and in a good mental place can be a great time for good ideas. Perhaps your meditative state comes from cooking, or cleaning. Maybe inspiration comes to you on long drives to visit family, or on plane trips where you have nothing else to do.
Whenever it is, recognizing the conditions that make those ideas possible is the first step to harnessing them anytime you need them.
Once you understand the semi-meditative state required, it's a little easier to create situations where you can let your mind wander a bit. Of course, you could always hop in the shower whenever you need to do a little brainstorming, but not all of us can do that in the middle of a workday. Instead, look for other things that you can do that offer a meditative break.
For example, maybe you can take a quick walk to clear your head. If you work from home, maybe a little tidying up can give you room to think. Even daydreaming is great for your brain. After all, regular, real breaks from your work are essential to staying motivated and creative. It's only when you get a chance to disconnect for a bit that your brain can take a fresh approach at the issues you're banging your head against.
… when you are working on a problem your brain tends to fixate on one or a few different strategies. Kounios says these are like ruts that your mental wheels get stuck in. "If you take a break however, those thought patterns no longer dominate your thinking," he said. The problem gets removed from the mental ruts and mingles with other ideas you're carrying in your head. Eventually, it finds one—or several—that click together and rise up like Voltron into a solution. This is called fixation forgetting.
Shower thoughts aren't always attached to a specific problem, but fixation forgetting still helps psychologists like Kounios understand those random cocktails of revelation.
It's not clear how your brain decides which are the right connections, but it's obvious that the farther your brain can roam, the better. Research has shown that your brainbuilds bigger creative webs when you're in a positive mood. This makes sense, because when you're anxious you're less likely to take a chance on creativity.
This is partially why mediation usually isn't the answer to your brainstorming quandaries. Sure,there are ways to quiet your mind when you need to, but part of the goal of meditation isn't to clear your mind so you can brainstorm, it's to clear your mind. Instead, you need to find activities that also provide a little activity, but not so much that you need to be mentally dedicated to them.
Time of day matters as well. Mental Floss explains that the grogginess and mental fog of the early morning or late evening aren't conducive to ideas, largely because they're when we're most tired or rushed. Instead, try the evening, during a break, or after work.
The downside to seeking out those inspirational moments is that the act of setting them up often undermines your intentions. It's like your brain knows you're trying to turn otherwise mentally idle time into mentally active time, and as a result the ideas won't come. This is why you may find your walks less inspiring after you decide to take a notebook along. The trick to capturing ideas when they come is a bit more complicated than that. You should make it easy to record those ideas, but you also have to trick your brain into forgetting that notebook is there.
Keep your notebook out of sight, and don't focus on it when you go for your walk. If you don't normally take anything on your walks, don't take a bag just so you have a notebook—find one you can slip into your pocket and forget about. If your ideas come in the shower, get one ofthose great waterproof notepads we've mentioned before, but put it on a side of the shower you don't normally face. The key is to make the process easy—so easy that your brain doesn't feel like it has something to do when inspiration finally strikes. Remember, if the whole point is that ideas come when you're otherwise distracted or mentally idle, giving the brain a task, even if it's "find inspiration," disrupts the process.
Finally, while it's important to make those moments as easily accessible as possible, don't forget that creativity is a process. It's not easy—you need experiences to inspire you, problems to solve, and even a little pressure to get the mental wheels turning. Sometimes, you just have to show up and start working, and let inspiration come when it comes.

Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn has a list of 500 songs(!) to choose from for his Awesome Mixes
By Sam Prell published 25 August 17
James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy films are some of the most beloved and unique in the MCU, thanks in no small part to their impeccable soundtracks. But did you ever wonder where those tunes come from? On the Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Blu-ray commentary, Gunn revealed he keeps an extensive list of music on-hand while working.
"The truth is I have a list of about 500 songs that I think of as 'Meredith Quill songs' - songs she would really love." Meredith Quill, in case you've forgotten, is Peter Quill's mother, and the person who gave him Awesome Mix and Awesome Mix Vol. 2. And dang, there must be at least 50 more Awesome Mix volumes kicking around out there if Gunn has that many songs associated with her.
"And in that list I keep that on files on my computer, and as I'm writing the screenplay - actually as I'm writing the treatment before the screenplay - I'll go through it and find songs that fit a moment or a place that needs a song, and I'll search out a song that will fit the moment." So if you've ever wondered why the Guardians movies sync up so well with their music, now you know.
What I found particularly charming, however, was the fact that apparently Gunn makes his own mixtapes (well, mix CDs) and gives them to Marvel executives when he turns in his treatment. "I'll give that story to Marvel and I'll give them a compact disc, an old school compact disc with the songs on it, so that they can listen to all of the music along with the treatment and know exactly what we're getting into," Gunn said.
Of course, at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Peter's adoptive daddy Yondu gives him a Zune with hundreds more songs. I wonder how big Gunn's list of music for that is.

Mally Mall Outright Denies Reports That He Was Arrested For Human Trafficking
Lasandra RuffLasandra Ruff
Hip hop producer Mally Mall is denying reports that he was arrested yesterday following a raid on his home. It was previously reported by TMZ that the Love & Hip Hop star was taken into custody after the Los Angeles Police Department and agents from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife searched his San Fernando home. They further reported that Mall was cuffed up on charges of human trafficking, but Mall's attorney Steve Sadow tells The Blast, "Any claim by LAPD that this case has to do with human trafficking is simply a lie."
Captain Patrick Foy of the California DFW stated that there were exotic animals seized in the search, and the investigation into Mall begun about eight months ago. Mall has been in their eyesight for a while, especially after he brought one of his animals into a strip club and gifted Justin Bieber with another. However, he's never been shy about posting about his pets on social media.
Contrary to what's been reported, The Blast says they spoke directly with Mall and he vehemently denies these claims. The publication states that Mall wants the public to know that the accusations against him have absolutely nothing to do with human trafficking. He says an allegation such as that is damaging to his character. A spokesperson for the LAPD previously made a statement mentioning human trafficking, but Mall was clear that that just isn't true because the search warrant only makes mention of exotic pets.
The reality star also says that he's being accused of trafficking exotic animals, but he asserts he has all the proper licensing for his pets. If things escalate and he's cited or taken to court, Mall plans on fighting the charges and says his animals are well taken care of. His Serval cat was seized by authorities while they also visited rapper Swae Lee's home and took his spider monkey.
