Can-Am Unveils 2018 Models, New Maverick X3 Turbo
Jun. 06, 2017 By Josh Burns, Photos Courtesy of Can-Am
If the Can-Am Maverick X3 models weren't already pushing the envelope last year, the company has decided to up the ante even further. The 2018 Cam-Am Maverick X3 Turbo R will feature an increase in horsepower of 12 percent, or 18 horsepower, and 10 percent more torque. Can-Am says that its new flagship side-by-side vehicle can go from 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds, laying claim as the "fastest accelerating factory-built side-by-side vehicle on the market."
Can-Am made changes to the intercooler and fan to help with the performance increase, as they were redesigned to maximize heat transfer. A new fuel pump was added to create more volume to support the additional power of the Rotax engine as well.
Can-Am says that in spite of the changes the new Maverick X3 Turbo R family will not increase in price. Can-Am also notes that all Maverick X3 X rs vehicle packages, including both the two and four-seat models, come standard with a factory-installed, retractable four-point harness system.
New Maverick X3 Turbo for 2018
Can-Am will also be introducing a new model for 2018, as the X3 family now includes the 120-hp Maverick X3 Turbo side-by-side. Designed as a point-of-entry option, Can-Am says the biggest selling point of this new model is that it offers more horsepower than competitive vehicles in its price point. The new Maverick X3 Turbo family will be offered in two-seat and four-seat MAX packages, with pricing for the two-seat models starting at less than $20,000 USD. The new Maverick X3 Turbo and benefits include the industry's leading long-travel suspension with 20 inches of travel both front and rear, the Rotax ACE turbocharged engine, with no intercooler, and more.

Boeremia exigua (Desm.) Aveskamp, Gruyter & Verkley – gatunek grzybów z klasy Dothideomycetes. Pasożyt wielu roślin.

Systematyka i nazewnictwo
Pozycja w klasyfikacji według Index Fungorum: Boeremia, Didymellaceae, Pleosporales, Pleosporomycetidae, Dothideomycetes, Pezizomycotina, Ascomycota, Fungi.

Po raz pierwszy opisał go w 1849 r. Jean Baptiste Henri Joseph Desmazières, nadając mu nazwę Phoma exigua. Obecną, uznaną przez Index Fungorum nazwę, nadali mu Maikel M. Aveskamp, Johannes de Gruyter i Gerard J.M. Verkley w 2010 r.

Jest gatunkiem typowym rodzaju Boeremia. Ma ponad 20 synonimów. Niektóre z nich:

Charakterystyka
Jest to gatunek powszechnie występujący. W. Mułenko i inni w 2003 r. podali jego występowanie (jako Phoma exigua) na bardzo licznych roślinach, zarówno dziko żyjących, jak i na roślinach uprawnych. Opisano jego występowanie na ponad 200 gatunkach roślin w Europie i na innych kontynentach. U roślin uprawianych w Polsce wywołuje grzybowe choroby roślin, takie jak fomoza soi i fomoza ziemniaka. Powoduje także zgorzel siewek i plamistość liści wielu gatunków roślin.

Zarodniki konidialne Boeremia exigua powstają na konidioforach zakończonych fialidami, które są zebrane w zamkniętych owocnikach typu pyknidium. Pyknidia są niemal kuliste, czarne i całkowicie zanurzone w tkankach żywiciela, na zewnątrz wystaje tylko szyjka z ujściem. Konidia jednokomórkowe, bezbarwne. Teleomorfy występują bardzo rzadko.

Odróżnienie morfologiczne Boeremia exigua od Boeremia foveata jest dość trudne. Boeremia exigua ma pyknidia o średnicy od 60 do 280 μm, bez brodawek, zanurzone. Komórki konidiotwórcze w kształcie kolby, 4–5 × 2,5–4 μm. Konidia elipsoidalne do podłużnych, 5–7 × 2–3 μm, głównie jednokomórkowe, ale sporadycznie z jedną przegrodą, szkliste, gładkie.

Category: The Peak Express reports
RRRG report for The Peak Express October 2009, Issue 23
During June the group had a hectic few days moving some of the larger items of spares around. We took the opportunity to clear some of the large items that we were never likely to use, e.g a spare bogie spider, roof panels, electrical cubicle shell etc, and send them for scrap. These are large items and had been cluttering our area of Rowsley South yard for some time. As they are Class 50 specific items, we had made a number of attempts to see if any other groups were interested in them but without success, so the decision was taken to weigh them in along with a number of scrap cylinder liners, connecting rods, brake cylinders and some cylinder heads.
We have also recently taken delivery of 17 pallets of spares from C.F Booths scrapyard in Rotherham, which included 21 cylinder heads, 12 Mk 3 cylinder heads, four buffers, two exhausters, three traction motor blowers, an Auxiliary generator, a water pump, four small air tanks, some brake cylinders, cam followers and various other items, which was the culmination of many work parties that have been held at Booths during the first half of the year. I am certain we've had more work parties at Booths this year than we have at Rowsley South!
Amongst other things, the work undertaken at Booths involved the complete stripping of two Class 37 power units, which has involved the group manufacturing a number of specialist tools, including a device for removing cylinder liners, a number of lifting beams for removing the pistons, an injector puller, and we borrowed a tool for removing the Auxiliary Generator's armature. Without these tools the work would not have been possible and would certainly not have gone as smoothly as it did.
As we are not planning on having any work done for some time on the spare ETH and Auxiliary Generator set for use in 50029, it has been moved from Bowers at Heanor to Rowsley South, along with the two spare traction motors that had been at Bowers for assessment. Two exhausters and two traction motor blowers (ex-Class 37 from C.F Booths) have moved in the opposite direction and work has started on their thorough overhaul. We had intended to send the radiator fan motor and exhausters to Bowers next and clean up two of the motor blowers ourselves. Unfortunately, due to a mix up at Booths, two of the best of the motor blowers were scrapped by mistake and as such we decided to send two of the remaining ones to Bowers for overhaul next.
The plan is for them to be completed before the end of the year, which will mean that Repulse will have six of it's 17 electrical machines in fully overhauled condition. The remaining movement, which should take place before you read this is to move the overhauled ETH/Auxiliary Generator set (which is still at Bowers) to a secure, heated storage facility. We are also in the process of arranging the collection of another Auxiliary Generator that has been purchased by one of our members, but needs removing from it's power unit and moving to Rowsley.
Quite a significant amount of work was undertaken in preperation for these few hectic days. The roadway down to the shed had to be cleared and checked for sharp objects, sorting of the spares was undertaken, identifying items for scrap, re-shuffling them to take up less space, new racking has been fitted in the coach to aid this process. A number of items including a set of cubicle doors have also been re-fitted to 50029 to save space in the shed, which also has the benefit of helping us see exactly what we are short of for her.
The recent Peak Rail diesel gala saw 50029 Renown cleaned up and put on display, it's been a couple of years since Renown was pulled out of the sidings and it was nice to see her standing in the sun next to the turntable at Rowsley South providing an excellent backdrop to the groups sales stand, which also had a very good day.
The latest delivery of new engine components arrived in mid-April, which has enabled work to continue on the overhaul of the ex-50008 power unit, which has included fitting further four overhauled pistons into their liners, along with their new piston rings, new big end bearing shells, new stretch bolts, nuts and washers and con rods and fitting further overhauled cylinder heads. The total now stands at four cylinder heads fitted and eight pistons/connecting rods. The order for the next set of new components has just been placed with European Diesels.
Some of the old piston and con rods assemblies that were obtained as spares at the time the locomotives were bought from Operation Collingwood have been sorted out, and the gudgeon pins removed from six of the worst. Where found to be in good condition, the pins were cleaned and greased for storage, the pistons have been set to one side as spares, and the worst of the connecting rods put on the scrap pile (some have been cut and some were in a very poor condition following years of outside storage at the Pontypool and Blaenavon Railway).
Finally, one area of progress not previously mentioned that is really starting to come together is the refurbishment of No 1 cab in 50030. All the loose paint has been removed and all internal surfaces sanded, the cab vestibules have been repainted to a very high standard, replacement ceiling vents, warning light cluster, cab lights, fault light panels and AWS horn have been refitted and wired up, all of which have been overhauled to a very high standard. The cab lights in particular need seeing to believe - I am not sure how or what Tom has done to them, but they look like brand new ones!

A-bomb for the A-rabs
The E3 talks with Nuclear-Fixated Iran failed, now there's a surprise. With the world as divided as it is, Iran can be sure that there will be no consensus (or no consensus of consequence) with regards to the nuclear issue. To continue we should review what has happened recently;
How could an Iran that was moving some ways towards rehabilitation under Mohammed Khatami now do a complete U-turn and elect the hard-line, regressive, and puppet plaything to the guardian council –" Ahmedinejed. Its all to do with a little thing called 'American Foreign Policy'. After 9/11 America entered into a delusional paranoia, that angry Arabs (or 'A-rabs' as they like to call them) and Muslims alike were out to attack America and the American way of life unfortunately for the terrorists 200 years of civic society, institutions and democracy are hardly going to come undone because two buildings and part of the Pentagon collapsed. Like the Japanese before the terrorists should have realised that you can't hit America and walk away and expect her to crumble to pieces, no of course not, she will retaliate unfortunately for the rest of us she goes round hurt and angry and doesn't really care who she hits to numb her pain. Afghanistan and Iraq got hit and many in Iran think they are next, so to err on the side of caution they believe it is better for Iran to be castigated and shunned by the International Community but still have an A-bomb –" the rationale being that actually having weapons of mass destruction precludes the possibility of actual military confrontation (North Korea vis-Ã -vis Iraq). Also Pakistan and India had the same treatment when they acquired Nuclear Weapons yet they were eventually forgiven and let back into the International Community and Iran will also.
The inspections seems invasive and we often hear the cry from (ignorant) people that if Iran is being inspected then we should have our weapons inspected as well and so should other nations (namely America and Israel) all should have their weapons stockpiles inspected, sounds like a fair idea? Unfortunately we don't live in a fair world, this is all about the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The nuclear powers (represented by the permanent members of the UN Security Council) are obliged under the treaty to stop proliferation, non-nuclear countries are obliged under the treaty to not acquire nuclear weapons in the first place. Iran belongs to the latter of the two types of countries and as such is obliged to show the world what her ambitions are and to allay any fears that the nuclear research will lead to weapons –" that is the legal crux of the argument. The Iranians have tried to dissuade the rest of the world of any notion that their intentions are anything but peaceful. However they leave a foolish accusation in the air about Israel having nuclear weapons –" this only helps to compound her ignorance of International Diplomacy and how the world works; you see Israel is not party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and so it cannot be held to account on what it does or does not have in terms of Nuclear Materiel, unfortunately Iran is party to it and therefore she is obliged under the treaty to allow inspections. When the head of the government carries on in a most unstatesmen-like fashion this only betrays to us the simple-minded and unsophisticated approach to international affairs undertaken by the Iranian regime, which is to their detriment.
Why do we have these two disparate treaty stipulations for those who have nuclear and for those who do not? Why not a system that is fair for all and does not discriminate against the rich or the poor, or the powerful and the not-so powerful? Maybe it is because the established nuclear powers don't trust the other nations of the world to act as responsibly as they do, after all you can't expect a bunch of barbarous savages to have the tremendous self restraint of not unleashing a nuclear warhead on an enemy civilian population could you? Twice.
The effects of Iran gaining nuclear weapons could be disastrous (if you read some of the rightwing press in Washington). Saudi Arabia would definitely get hold of a nuclear weapon (not through laborious research like the Iranians, but like all things in Saudi they'll just buy it) to stop Iran becoming the dominant power in the region and to act as a counterbalance to the obvious cache that a nuclear Iran would have amongst the Shiite in Saudi as well as elsewhere in the gulf and in the region as a whole. Imagine if you will then a Nuclear Israel, a Nuclear Iran and a Nuclear Saudi all entered into the milieu of a sustained effort by America of trying to influence peripheral entities in the region to adopt American Capitalism, with a dying brand of Arab Socialism represented by Egypt, Libya and Syria, the indigenous experiments at democracy in the region having been totally undermined because of Iraq and added to this several countries playing host to large American bases this will only collect hatred and fester animosity against the west and Israel that will naturally lead to some form of military expression. Egypt may play host to some form of American Nuclear Deterrent or if Syria adopts a more pleasingly political structure to the Americans then the Golan Heights maybe given to America as a base, as it is one of the most strategic parts of the Middle East. Sounds like the makings of Armageddon to me, but true life is always duller then what war mongering neo-cons can conceive, what will happen of course is the world will censure Iran and American agents will try to change to regime from the inside by a whole host of new agents readily available in Iran, Afghanistan and Iraq but inside the country the nation will rally around the leader and a nuclear weapon will be eventually given birth to. Silently Saudi will procure a weapon and like the Israelis they will neither confirm nor deny the existence of nuclear weapons. Egypt will move ahead along the lines of the reforms it has adopted and Syria will eventually fold under pressure from the International Community to democratise and Americanise and so an American Base will materialise in the Golan Heights, but the world will continue spinning as it had the day before all the world was infecting with this peculiar madness. This particular world order has come to an end, as many politicians keep reminding us, and as such so will the balance of power in the world. We are reverting to the old system of treaties and alliances. Nuclear Weapons will proliferate, because much of the world no longer trusts the International Community as it is divided, and the old system of denying Nuclear materials to non-nuclear countries will disappear as increased industrial progress will require the use of nuclear materials and the poor and downtrodden of the world will acquire the ambrosia of the Nuclear nations. It may give us a more just and balanced world were debate and persuasion will reign over force and military action…I hope, as the alternative is unimaginable.
The paranoia that I highlighted earlier in the west and American in particular, stems from the assumption that non-democratic regimes are inherently unstable and that democratic ones are stable –" this of course is completely untrue ask the Germans how the Third Reich came to power, the Ancient World (Egypt, Maya, Rome) with their centuries upon centuries of rule were anything but democratic yet they endured for a longer time then all the collective history of democracy itself. This political hubris is what is spurring the collective greed of the world to see an end of the Iranian regime and reform in the Arab/Muslim world. The Iranians to their credit may yet still surprise us –" the nightmare scenario that some people have envisaged may come about, only less potent and certainly not as politically integrated as we think but the dying remnants of the Waliyat Al-Faqih system may just burn a little bit brighter and longer by the aid of a Nuclear fire.

Home News Ayade Laments Lack Of Raw Materials To Feed Ogoja Rice Mill
Ayade Laments Lack Of Raw Materials To Feed Ogoja Rice Mill
Governor Ben Ayade
Andy Esiet, Calabar
Cross River State Governor, Senator Ben Ayade has expressed concern over the shortage of enough raw materials to feed the newly commissioned 66, 500 tonnes Ogoja Rice mill in the state.
Ayade who expressed this concern on Saturday during the Northern Festival (NORTHFEST) in Ogoja, said he had a dream of building a rice mill for his people so that our people would stop taking our rice to other states to mill and "today I have fulfilled that dream. The biggest challenge we have now is that the carrying capacity of the rice mill is much bigger than the raw materials we have got.
"So how do we explain, that I have a rice mill with 66,500 tonnes capacity in terms of storage and you need to have that quantity before you switch on the engine, yet I cannot get 3000 tonnes?"
He therefore, charged the people, especially the young ones to go into rice farming since the rice mill is ever ready to off-take their produce.
He said, "if you go to Obanliku, we are building a maize semovita factory, if you go to Obudu, we are doing Yam poundo, we are doing biscuits. If you come to Bekwarra, we have two major factories. One is in Nyanya, the other one is in Gakem. One is producing vegetable oil, while the other is to produce animal feeds.
"If you come to Ogoja and Yala, you have this massive rice mill, which is the biggest and the only vitamised rice mill in Africa. Can you imagine if everyone of us here had one hectare of rice farm?This rice mill will not be lying prostrate. Now we go as far as Taraba State to buy rice paddy, because the mill is working but there is no rice to mill".
On the NorthFest, Ayade urged the state House of Assembly members from the Northern part of the state to sponsor a bill to give legal backing to it to ensure its sustainability after he leaves office as governor.
Ayade acknowledged that this year's event, was the last he would be attending as the governor of the state as the festival was created by his administration to celebrate the cultures of the people of Northern Cross River.
To ensure that the festival continues even after leaving office, he called on the state House of Assembly members from the North "to bring a bill to the House of Assembly, which will have my assent ultimately to ensure that as we are sustaining the Carnival Calabar and the Leboku, we also sustain NorthFest."
He said this was imperative because "we want Northfest to become the symbol of unity for us the people of the North."

Q: In Python can you pass two arguments to a function where one argument is extrapolated from the other? I'm writing a recursive binary-search function in Python. My code looks like common examples where the function accepts:
(a) a list of numbers;
(b) the search term;
(c) the length of the list for the initial location of the right pointer; and
(d) a default argument of 0 for the left pointer.
Do I have to pass both a list of numbers (a) and also the length of the list (c)? Can't I make a default argument that automatically computes the length of argument (a)?
MWE:
def binarySearchRecur(nums, target, high, low=0):
    if high - low == 1:
        return "not found"
    elif nums[(high + low) // 2] < target:
        low = (high + low) // 2
        return binarySearchRecur(nums, target, low, high)
    elif nums[(high + low) // 2] > target:
        high = (high + low) // 2 + 1
        return binarySearchRecur(nums, target, low, high)
    return f"index at: {(low + high) // 2}"

target = 16
nums = [x for x in range(20)]
print(binarySearchRecur(nums, target, len(nums)-1))

In the code above I'd like to call the function the first time using only nums and target.

A: Could you simply do something like this?
def binarySearchRecur(nums, target, high=None, low=0):
   if high is None:
      high=len(nums)
...

This way if you only input the list and the target, the first thing the function will do is to infer "high" from the list.

Louix Dor Dempriey explains the true dynamics and applications of Karma (the Law of Balance) and dispels the false notion that karma is "bad things that happen to you because of bad things that you did in the past." In so doing, he teaches us not only how we create karma, but also how we can transmute it.
This clip was taken from a television interview on Spiritual Exploration (which aired on Staten Island, New York and surrounding areas in March 2008).


That is a good haul. Its good and important to treat yourself once in a while! Enjoy your new items!
I am also extremely frugal. Right years of paying for university yourself will do that to you. There were times when I had to choose between food or putting gas in the car so I could get to school. I'm better about it than I was, but I still spend most of my fun money on sewing or running stuff (which is the only thing staving off the depression some days, so I almost consider that a necessity at this point).
That being said, I nearly bought that same purse earlier this week! The only thing that stopped me was because I didn't like the handles.
Ugh. Depression. There have been times when my fun money was actually my sanity fund. And much of it was spent on sewing stuff.
The handles are a bit awkward if you're using the purse as a purse. I prefer a shoulder strap for my purse.
No bad feelings here! I am drooling over the purse/tote. I want one. I'll admit that I don't have much "fun money," but I certainly don't dislike when those who do, spend it. On the contrary, I appreciate it when you spend it and provide reviews. It gives me a chance to drool over something beautiful and receive constructive views on whether it should be a drool-only piece or something that would be worth my saving up for.
So really, thanks for doing me a favor! Don't feel bad about spending money that you not only earned, but put away specifically for this purpose. You deserve these treats, because as you stated, you make sure that all of your adult responsibilities are met before anything "extra" is purchased and enjoyed. Don't let someone's pettiness remove any joy you receive from spoiling yourself.
Thanks! This is reassuring. :) I like review posts for the same reason. They're especially helpful for smaller online shops, so you have some idea of about their level of service before you decide to order.
It's the theme for just about everything for me. ;) I don't love ordering clothes online because I'm super picky about the feel of fabric. I was pleased to find the fabric of the cardigan is very nice.
Sometimes it is good to spoil yourself a little. *hugs* I hope you get to feeling better.
This post stirred up all the bad feelings! ALL OF THEM!!! Kidding. Awesome haul. Loving the jewelry.
Great finds! I love haul posts!
I also look at models in pics to calculate size, I usually assume if it's long on her it will be veery long on me but a recent miscalculation had me end up with some very short dresses, must have been a shorter model, I'm usually safe!
A few sites list the model's height and size, and I really appreciate it. Very helpful!
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! I don't mind haul posts as long as they are tastefully done. Oh hell, guilty as charged: Halloween shopping is coming and you know I'll be doing haul posts. HA!
Late to the comments but I adore that bag - it's too large for me but I covet it regardless.
I actually have that cardy and love it. It washes really well. I am the opposite to you and have very short arms so it also provides me with handy mittens!

Large volumes of wastes are produced by the mining activities and mine waste management is one of the most important environmental issues which directly affect the feasibility of the mine related to permitting. The slurries or waste materials left over after mineral is extracted from ore via physico-chemical processing are called tailings which must be safely disposed to prevent the release of contaminates into the environment. Tailings are generally stored onland surface impoundments; can be used in backfilling the voids in exhausted underground mines and/or transferred through pipes and disposed to a watercourse under the water level subaqueously. In deep sea tailings placement (DSTP) method, the tailings are disposed to deep sea zones far from the shore. The environmental legislations are improving, forcing the mining industry to take strict measures regarding tailings management. The Turkish Regulation on Mining Wastes have been published in 2015 and is going to be in force by July 15, 2017 where DSTP is adressed as a possibility for non-hazardous wastes disposed to anoxic layer of Black Sea. This manuscript aims to provide guidance on the environmental permitting of DSTP practices as an option in Turkey's Legislation.

Be the best host this Easter with easy baking recipes from George Wilkinson. Make amazing chocolate cookies with George Wilkinson bakeware.
Sometimes, chocolate cookies can be temperamental. One of the easiest, fail-proof chocolate cookie recipes is Cake Mix Cookies. As well as cake mix, you will need marshmallows.
First, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Using a large bowl, combine your cake mix, eggs along with half a cup of shortening. After this has been totally mixed together until completely, drop of shape your cookies using a tablespoon, on a lined George Wilkinson bakeware baking sheet.
Bake your cookies for around 8-10 minutes until they are clearly shaped but not completely solid.
While your cookies are baking using your George Wilkinson baking supplies, use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the marshmallows in half.
Remove your George Wilkinson bakeware with cookies on, place your marshmallow pieces, cut side down, on the cookies.
Put the bakeware back in the oven for another couple of minutes. Push each marshmallow down slightly in order to ensure it spreads out evenly over the cookie.
While your cookies are cooling, combine some powdered sugar and cocoa powder into a bowl.
Then add vanilla, milk, and melted butter and use an electric mixer until smooth, light and fluffy.
Put the mixture into an icing bag icing with a large tip, swirling it onto your cookies.
These cookies are perfect for Easter but they can be made for any special occasion using George Wilkinson baking equipment. With Valentine's Day approaching, consider making them for someone special.
Preheat oven your 180 degrees Celsius. Combine cake mix, eggs, and shortening in the bowl and mix. Drop mix by the tablespoon onto your George Wilkinson bakeware and bake for about 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are ready but soft in the centre.
While the cookies are baking using George Wilkinson bakware, use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut the marshmallows in half. Remove the baking equipment from the oven and place a marshmallow half on each cookie, cut side down.
Return the bakeware to the oven for about 2 minutes then push each marshmallow down.
When the cookies have cooled, combine powdered sugar and cocoa powder in a large bowl, adding melted butter, vanilla, and evaporated milk, beating until fluffy. Put the mix into an icing bag fitted and swirl onto the cookies.

Elizabeth Fasken
Published, EAC Communiqué, Autumn 1996
he soft nuances of weaving, gently toned and integrated "like one fabric", reflect the inner poetry of Elizabeth Fasken. "I'm a minimalist," she says, "overwhelmingly now, in weaving and in novels and music as well. We have so much, but the things that matter are so few."
Seeking only the essential and experimental, patterns are not a priority in her weaving. She prefers the "old colours" of natural dyes, quiet and subtle, combining them in her work with the sensitivity of an Old Master.
Elizabeth's four looms present various options, but her interest in one-of-a-kind pieces makes the easy set up of her Leclerc counterbalance loom which stands in the kitchen her favourite. With it she can do unbalanced, experimental weaving. "I'm an asymmetrical person," Elizabeth says.
Her home and studio in Elora are in the house by the Irvine River where she was born and lived until she attended Teacher's College. She returned to Elora in the '80s to look after her sick mother and found the village had become a good place for a craftsperson to flourish. "Elora is a gentle place, but there's excitement here too, which has value. It's important to have the sympathy of other like minds."
After Teacher's College and travel Elizabeth took a degree in Fine Arts at Guelph, majoring in sculpture, studying with John Fillion whose strength and perspicacity in teaching echoes strongly in her work.
Following university, Elizabeth went west, living on Mount Seymour near Vancouver. Without a studio or job, she was fortunate to befriend a neighbour who was a weaver. While the neighbour was away Elizabeth was invited to use her loom. Through this friend she also discovered the beauty of hand spinning on a West Coast Indian Spinner, still a favourite today.
Elizabeth's subsequent experience in textile design and application at the North Vancouver Fibre School confirmed her path as a weaver. This school was influenced by an early '70s show called "Delivered Entanglements", featuring off-loom, non-functional pieces that were strong and sculptural. "Weaving was taken away from the traditional and given a modern statement."
Moving east, Elizabeth lived in New England next door to the Rhode Island School of Design. In this area rich with the old textile houses, her respect for the craft of weaving grew. She learned traditional spinning on a big walking wheel valued for the quality of softness it gives to the wool.
Recently Elizabeth has been inspired by the Rya technique, developed for Swedish Rya rugs. In these designs some of the wool is pulled out, looping and making the woven fabric three-dimensional.
This spring, preparing for the "Spirit Valley" show in Rockwood, she worked with metal artist Sarie Marais of Salem. The show was conceived to affirm the energy and life of a valley, appealing to Elizabeth's love of nature. Striking possibilities for design of off-the-wall pieces woven to drape Sarie's large welded metal sentinel figures emerged. The contrast in materials worked wonderfully. Soft lengths of woven light wool could respond to changes of wind and light, in sympathy with nature. During the summer these amazing figures, set on loosely anchored styrofoam bases, could be seen floating in the Irvine Pond, Salem. Their mysterious dignity confirmed a splendid alliance of talents.
At present, experiments with Japanese shibori dying techniques and fabric stiffness bring Elizabeth ever closer to the sculpture of student days, this time through woven materials bent and moulded to flowing form.
Sailing and walking, Elizabeth grows, absorbing nature, noticing and translating every detail. Her weavings keep pace in their own way.
"As you get smaller, you realize a new vastness within the microcosm," Elizabeth says. Through her weavings we are privileged to share the evolution of her sensitized vision.
by Beverley Cairns, Autumn 1996
Elora is a gentle place, but there's excitement here too, which has value. It's important to have the sympathy of other like minds.
UPDATE – 1997
Elizabeth has recently shared an exhibition with metal and ceramic artist Sarie Marais at Leyander's on Mill Street, Elora. Many of her wall hangings, inspired by the Rya technique, graced the stone walls.
Each summer "Joie de Vivre" hang Elizabeth's work in their gallery along the Fundy shore in New Brunswick. In 2004 the Capitol Theatre in Moncton, New Brunswick, exhibited her works with Karen Bach's paintings.
Elizabeth's long, woven hangings accompanied the ink works of Mat Nightingale, in a display at Groves Memorial Hospital, Fergus, to the joy of patients and staff. Shibori, dyed warp and paper fibre have been recent areas of exploration.

OPEN Health congratulates the 'open 3 peaks challenge' team
Written on Wednesday 6th July 2016
OPEN Health congratulates the'OPEN 3 Peaks Challenge' team on completing the taxing yet rewarding climb of 'The National 3 Peaks challenge' - Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in England, and Snowdon in Wales. This challenge see's hikers climb a total of 11,178 ft over a total distance of 27 miles in under 24 hours.
After months of careful planning, training and preparation the 1st July saw members of the team make their way to Fort William and, after watching Wales's triumph in the Euro 2016 match against Belgium, the team were up bright and early to start their ascent up Ben Nevis at 6:22am.
Ben Nevis was completed in a very soggy and snowy 5 hours with the team leaving Ben Nevis at 10:20am. Unfortunately the bus driver got a bit lost so, arriving at Scafell Pike at about 7:30pm, an hour and a half later than planned, the team had some serious catching up to do. Rising to the challenge again, the team were back at the bus in 2 hours 50 minutes.
Unfortunately, the driver's navigation skills were exposed again, when the team were late to Snowdon; arriving another 1.5 hours late. The team knew they were up against it, to make the true 24 hours.
Two of the group completed in sub 24 hours real time (one arriving at 6.00 am and the other at 6:15 am) all of the team, however, made it back before 7.00 am!
Subtracting this time lost, and adjusting to an average drive time to each peak (10.5 hours total), as well as taking the longest times of all teams members (last back to the bus), the whole group actually completed in 22 hours and 10 minutes… A great achievement!
Admiring the sunrise over Snowdon - nearly there!
At the top of Snowdon - a little bit tired and wet, however misson accomplished!
Not only is this a fantastic personal achievement for all involved, the 'OPEN 3 Peaks Challenge' team have raised an impressive £2,370 (to date) for the very worthy Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. Further donations would be gratefully received, the fundraising page will remain open until Friday 15th July 2016.

Canada's legacy of trauma
Lillian Boraks-Nemetz and Senator Murray Sinclair. (photo by Jerry Nussbaum)
A succession of unjust Canadian laws piled one upon the other in the last part of the 19th century, enabling the federal government to take indigenous children from their homes and eradicate their cultural identities. The full scope of those laws – and their impacts on generations of First Nations people to today – was outlined by Senator Murray Sinclair, former head of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, who spoke at the University of British Columbia last week.
The impact of residential schools and the laws that created and sustained them was the theme of Sinclair's talk, which was presented by the UBC faculty of education and the Janusz Korczak Association of Canada.
Prior to Sinclair's presentation, Vancouver author Lillian Boraks-Nemetz, a board member of the Korzcak association and a child survivor of the Holocaust, contextualized the lecture in the spirit of Korczak's legacy.
Korczak was an educator and pedagogue who ran orphanages, including one in the Warsaw Ghetto, where Boraks-Nemetz was also confined. Korczak was a respected figure in Polish society, considered by many the originator of the concept of children's rights.

"Korczak observed and listened to children, never judging, criticizing or showing intolerance," said Boraks-Nemetz. He cultivated their self-esteem and believed that children should grow into who they want to be, not who others want them to become.
"During the Nazi persecution, Korczak, when offered a reprieve from the depredations of the Warsaw Ghetto, he would not abandon his children in their last journey to the cattle cars heading for Treblinka, the death camp," she said. "He refused, saying, 'My children need me. I deplore desertion.' He went with them and they all perished."
Sinclair then painstakingly outlined the conspiracy of legal barriers to justice that the government erected to perpetuate what has been termed cultural genocide.
As the federal government began to expand Canada westward in the 1870s, it entered into treaties with the indigenous peoples. One of the demands indigenous negotiators insisted upon in exchange for being limited to reserves was that the federal government create and fund schools on those reserves.
Sir John A. Macdonald sent a representative to the United States to see how they were running schools for Native Americans. In direct repudiation of the treaties, the federal government opted for a similar system and his government created what they called "industrial schools."
Sinclair said MacDonald believed that, if children went to school on reserves, "the kids would go to the schools in the daytime and they would then return home to their parents, who are nothing but savages, and we would be teaching those children basic skills that all children learn from schools and what we're going to end up with at the end of the day is nothing but savages who can read and write."
Because the government wanted to "do it on the cheap," said Sinclair, "they decided to involve the churches, who were quite willing to get involved because it was great for the churches as well to gain numbers through their missionary zeal."
Children were punished for speaking their languages and for talking with their friends and siblings, "because they wanted to break your ties to those relationships…. Everything was done in the schools to break down cultural bonds that existed in those children."
Those who were not physically or sexually abused lived in fear that they would be, Sinclair said.
"And, of course, the children, when they came home, would tell their parents what happened in those schools," he said.
The natural inclination to stop it from happening led to a cascade of legislative injunctions that took away the most fundamental rights of First Nations peoples.
"In the 1880s, the government passed the law that amended the Indian Act and said that it was an offence, a legal breach of law, if you did not send your child to a school when the Indian agent told you to send the child," said Sinclair.
When parents tried to hide their children, the parents would be prosecuted and go to jail. Faced with the prospect of indigenous people taking the government to court over the issue, the government passed another law, making it impossible to go to court against the government for anything done under the Indian Act "unless you get permission from the minister of Indian Affairs first." The government soon made it illegal for indigenous people to consult with a lawyer on anything relating to the Indian Act – with the punishment for the lawyer being disbarment. Then, another step was added, making it illegal for a white Canadian to speak to a lawyer on behalf of an indigenous person.
When it seemed parents might protest the situation, the government made it illegal, in 1892, for three or more First Nations people to gather together in order to discuss a grievance against the government of Canada. It was made illegal for indigenous people to attend large gatherings like the traditional sundances or the potlatch, "not just because of the religious aspect of it but also because, at these gatherings, that's when Indians got together in order to discuss their grievances," said Sinclair.
Fears of a violent uprising were dismissed by Northwest Mounted Police in documentation Sinclair has seen, which, he summarized: "We don't have to worry about the Indians taking up arms against the government because we have their kids. They are not going to go to war against us."
Children who returned from the schools were scarred and often unable to communicate with their parents in a shared language.
"Their ability to know how to hunt, fish or trap, which is what the communities depended upon, was lost to them," said Sinclair.
Estimates are that about 35% of indigenous children attended residential schools, but the damage extended to the other 65%, who were taught in public schools the same white superiority/indigenous inferiority curriculum as those who were taken away.
When those children grew up and had children, they had no learned skills at parenting and were burdened with their own demons, said Sinclair. As a result, when child welfare systems were burgeoning in the 1950s, it was mostly indigenous children who went into care. It was, and is, disproportionately indigenous people who are incarcerated.
Indigenous Canadians have the highest suicide rates of any cultural group in the world, said Sinclair. High school dropout rates, substance abuse and violent crime affect indigenous Canadians in exponentially greater numbers than non-indigenous Canadians.
The problems will not be resolved, Sinclair said, by spending more money on child welfare, policing or incarceration. The education system and society must help indigenous young people realize who they are as Anishinaabe, Cree, Sto:lo or Mohawk.
"The educational system is just not giving them what they need," he said. "We have a lot of work to do, but, if we address that one aspect of how our society is functioning, we will see the most dramatic change that will resolve or redress the history of residential schools in Canada on indigenous people, on indigenous youth in particular.… It begins with recognizing that … indigenous youth, in particular, must be given their chance to develop their sense of self-respect first, and that's going to take some time to do."

« Wow. Such a change in approach compared to Massey and Blankenship.


Yes. I'm posting about the smell coming from boys' bathroom. …cause if you are a Kindergarten teacher anywhere, you know that there is going to be a smell in the boys' bathroom. God bless their sweet little hearts (and other parts). You can preach and you can talk. The "miss" happens. I've found something that is saving our room from the smell that sneaks in from that small space. I try to avoid the chemical sprays that can be harmful and aggravating to my kiddos…especially my babes with asthma. Here it is: My $30 diffuser from amazon and PURIFY essential oil. (Click the pic to learn more about it.) I just put in a few drops into the water and turn the bad boy on. It puts a mist of lemon, lime and pine into my room all day. OK kiddos. You can the clothespins off your noses now.
The closets in my house where I store teaching stuff. Am I candidate for that hoarding show?
And my TPT wish list! See where it says, "Your cart is empty." ?? Not for long! I'm cleaning it out this weekend while hundreds of TPT sellers are having a sale.
If you want a quick link to the stores with sales, go to Georgia Grown Kiddos.
What are your spring cleaning projects?
This is great! I totally need to check into this diffuser because my room is directly across from the boys bathroom. Thanks for sharing!
I've never seen a blog post on the stinky boys' bathroom before!!! LOL!
I saw on Pinterest once a sign that someone posted about how many "points" you get if you don't "miss." But of course, that was about paper towels hitting the trashcan instead of the floor. I think a wee wee sign might help. What do you think?


etc also to the pdfcreator to create your pdf documents).
Glad people are finding this information useful.
On the computer DVD player fine but, will not play on regular DVD player.
I also, created blu-ray disc and it play fine on the blu-ray player.
I just wondering any of you guy have problems creats DVD disc from proshow producer.
can any of you walk me through how to creat .iso file?
Just select ISO file as the output destination device instead of the DVD writer device. After that it's just a matter of using some other software to write the ISO to the actual DVD media. Any software that knows how to burn a CD/DVD can be used or you can download (free) Imgburn to do the job. Read this thread and you can search the forum for more information, looking for references to Imgburn here is one way to find it.

John Surman QT.: Brewster's Rooster
Bob Burnett: I have Jeff Goold to thank for the heads-up about the release of this album earlier in the summer. Jeff was my "RA" in the dorm for freshman year of college at Ohio University. I recall that moment of moving into my room, several bins of albums in tow. Well......more than several. More like an amount that required me to rent a U-Haul to get to school. Anyway, Jeff came into the picture because we immediately realized we had an ECM label bond. Whew.....what a relief that was to know there were others "out there" who connected with Nana Vasconcelos! Old and New Dreams! John Abercrombie! Anyway, we're 30 years down the road now and Jeff is still playing percussion in the Nashville area and diggin' the ECM scene. The message he sent me was to check out Brewster's Rooster because it revisited the feel of the classic ECM trio, Gateway (John Abercrombie, Jack DeJohnette, Dave Holland) as well as the New Directions quartet. (John Abercrombie, Jack DeJohnette, Eddie Gomez, Lester Bowie).
While I appreciate and identify with the comparison to past ECM outings, Brewster's Rooster is a great example in its own right of players who have been around, know each other and make something happen in contemporary times. It has terrific "swing", stays tight while always expanding ideas through interplay and improvisation. I was fortunate to have seen this quartet live earlier in the year. My pal Marc and I (another 30 year ECM vet friend) had terrific seats at Blues Alley in Washington, DC. John Surman played mostly soprano sax--unfortunately his baritone broke in the middle of the set but he soldiered on. Jack DeJohnette was breathtaking. Simply put he continues to be the most refreshing, inventive drummer I know of. John Abercrombie re-invents the guitar--his phrasing, touch and comping are gifts to behold. Drew Gress held it all together on bass. The gig was one of the most exciting live experiences I've had in years. Listening to the album brings back fond memories of the creative energy this group of musicians posses. This album is easily available many different ways via download, amazon, retail and I suggest you find one of them and get it--even if you don't consider yourself an "jazz" person. You owe your senses a nice burst of these treasured musicians.

Q: mergeKEGGgraphs - error when merging multiple KEGG graphNEL objects There is a bug in the mergeKEGGgraphs function in the KEGGgraph R package. The code (below) produces the following error (also below). I have crawled the function's code, and have come to the conclusion (hopefully, a correct one), that this error is due to the lines directly below:
keggnodeing <- match(nodes(g), keggnodenames)
mergedkeggnode <- keggnodes[keggnodeing]
names(mergedkeggnode) <- sapply(mergedkeggnode, getName)

The error occurs because nodes(g) produces the Entry IDs (concatenated), of all graphs in the list of graphs that were merged using mergeGraphs at the beginning of the function mergeKEGGgraphs. However, keggnodenames produces the display names - not the entry IDs. So when you do a match(nodes(g), keggnodenames), you get null for all entries. There are no matches between entry ID and display names!
Question: How can I get around this error so I can successfully merge these pathway graphs?
Error message for below code:

Leagues Info
Registration for Winter Turf League Closes Jan 4!
SESA hosts various youth and adult leagues throughout the year. The leagues offer playing options for all players in the area regardless of season or player ability. In our mission to grow the passion for soccer in our community, we acknowledge that providing affordable programs throughout the year is a great way to have more players exposed to and involved with soccer. Our programs are partnered with the YMCA and are played at the Burlington RecPlex, and FunCity Turf indoor facility. Previously many of these programs were only available in larger cities that required extra travel, or were very expensive. Our goal is to bring high quality programs to Southeast Iowa at a fraction of the cost of comparable programs.

Liu Meng'er and the others weren't very clear about this matter, and Leng Youlan didn't explain in detail to them either, as if he was worried that they would stop him.
Chen Xiang told them about this matter.
"No wonder Qilian came to find me a few days ago and asked if I wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion. We were not interested in that." Liu Meng'er said: "When the time comes, You Lan and Qianxiang will definitely go all out. They really like fighting against all kinds of opponents."
Seeing Chen Xiang's smile, Xue Xianxian asked: "Husband, you aren't partic.i.p.ating right?"
I'm definitely going to partic.i.p.ate. Don't you know how much the little baldy underestimates me? Chen Xiang said with an unconvinced face: "You're still saying that I don't have any proper methods, so I don't have any strength."
Liu Meng'er and the others were Chen Xiang's women after all, so they knew everything about this. Even though they were not clear about Chen Xiang's strength at the moment, according to their understanding of Chen Xiang, there was no way he would do something where there was no chance of victory.
"When the time comes, we won't go. You will definitely win. This is something without any suspense. Since we know you can win, there's no point in us going." Dongfang Xinyue smiled as she caressed Chen Xiang's handsome face.
Xue Xianxian said: "Sister Han Rou came to us and told us that you have collected all the Ancient Divine Weapons. Can you let us take a look?"
Liu Meng'er and the others were more interested in these things, just like how Leng Youlan and the others were obsessed with battles.
Chen Xiang placed the Azure Dragon Divine Saber, Suzaku bow, Qilin fire chain and the White Tiger Gloves on the table. These items looked extremely ordinary, but were all refined by the Heavenly Divine Lord.
"Heavenly Divine Lord has recorded all he learned about artifact forging in the Divine Book! "All of these are in that book. Now that I can see what's inside, it's pretty amazing." Liu Meng'er held onto the Green Dragon Divine Saber and waved it a few times. Although the blade looked very ordinary, the materials used and the complicated Spirit grain inscriptions drawn inside were not ordinary at all.
After playing with them for a while, they finally got Chen Xiang to keep them. The only problem was that these divine weapons did not have enough Divine Deity within them.
"Leave this profoundwu clothing with us for now. We will help you repair it as soon as possible." Liu Meng'er placed the profoundwu clothing into a wooden chest and stored it away. "What you need the most right now should be a good pill furnace!"
Chen Xiang nodded, "Didn't you guys say that you are lacking materials? The materials to refine that divine furnace must all be from the Divine Nations, and I might have to go there to find them. "
Xue Xianxian kept all the blueprints on the table, and took out a few cups, and poured some fragrant fruit juice for the people here.
"There's no need to go to the Divine Nations to find him." Xue Xianxian took out a plate, poured some juice on it and pa.s.sed it to Yue'er.
"Thank you, Sister Xianxian!" Yue'er tenderly said.
Xue Xianxian smiled, gently patted Yue'er's little head, and continued: "You can ask Great Divine Lord for it. The Divine Book in our hands was originally from Nine Divine Kings, so they definitely have a lot of materials in their hands."
Dongfang Xinyue also nodded his head, "Since they have the intention to return to their country, they must be h.o.a.rding quite a bit of resources in this area."
Chen Xiang did not actually think about going to Great Divine Lord, he really did need a good pill furnace, the divine pills he refined next would require him to make all sorts of dangerous attempts, ordinary pill furnaces would not be able to handle them.
"Alright, I'll go now!" Chen Xiang nodded.
When Great Divine Lord and the others were saved, they built a Heavenly Divine Palace on that desert. Great Divine Lord even said that he wanted to open a dragon vein!
Chen Xiang still remembered where he was. He had left the Hundreds of Flowers Village and was teleported to the nearest city in the desert. After arriving at the city, he immediately found out that the Heavenly Divine Palace was openly recruiting disciples.
Right now, Great Divine Lord could not directly partic.i.p.ate in the affairs of Nine Heaven World, or else Divine Nations would also take action, and seeing the outbreak of war here was not what Great Divine Lord wished to see, but he could take this opportunity to choose an outstanding seedling to begin nurturing. Right now, he had so many resources, and Great Divine Lord and the rest had a deep foundation, he could quickly nurture a group of outstanding disciples.
This city was still rather far from the Heavenly Divine Lord, but Chen Xiang knew where he was heading. He immediately used the s.p.a.ce wind to go through a mountain range, and discovered that he seemed to have taken the wrong path.
"It should be a desert ahead!" Chen Xiang looked at the beautiful prairie in front of him and started to suspect if he had recognized the wrong direction.
Just when he was unsure, he saw a group of people riding magic treasures flying over. Behind them, there were also people riding magic treasures continuously, and there were quite a few people coming and going.
This place has definitely been remodeled by the Heavenly Divine Palace before. With their powers, this place is too easy. After Chen Xiang understood everything, he continued to use the s.p.a.ce wind to move forward.
Not long after, he stopped because he felt a weak spatial fluctuation in front of him. This was caused by a powerful formation.
In front of them was the majestic Heavenly Divine Palace. Just the golden door was enough to shock everyone, let alone the tall buildings inside.
Through the wide open doors, one could see the magnificent buildings and the tall mountains. There were not just buildings, but also mountains and rivers, making the interior very beautiful and comfortable to live in.
Although the door was wide open, not everyone could enter. The door that led to the dragon had a translucent barrier that could be seen at a glance. Anyone who entered would be blocked by this barrier.
What Chen Xiang did not understand was that there were no guards outside the gate nor were there any other small doors. He did not know how to enter as well, but many people were currently waiting and chatting at the bottom of the gate.
An old man who was very talkative saw that Chen Xiang was at a loss, and walked over, laughing: "This little brother, is this your first time here? Don't you know how to get in? "
Chen Xiang didn't have any way to contact the Great Divine Lord right now. He nodded, he wanted to see the Great Divine Lord as soon as possible.
"Don't worry, once noon arrives, the enchantment will weaken. As long as you can enter this door, even if you pa.s.s the first stage of the examination and the next stage, I heard that there are a total of three stages. You will be able to become a member of the Heavenly Divine Palace after pa.s.sing the first stage." The old man said, "I can pa.s.s the first stage, but I can never pa.s.s the second stage."
Chen Xiang finally understood that there were actually many people who came here every day to try and pa.s.s the ten trials set up by the Heavenly Divine Palace!
"Interesting!" Chen Xiang laughed, he also wanted to see the content of the Heavenly Divine Palace's examinations.
"Young man, being confident is a good thing, but being too confident is not so good! This exam was extremely difficult, especially so for the final test. It was said that not even Empyrean G.o.ds would be able to pa.s.s it! But strangely, only a few imps from the profound G.o.d and True G.o.d could pa.s.s, so I guessed that someone was guarding the third trial. " The old man said.

Welterweight Star Vergil Ortiz, Jr. Stays Perfect
Posted on March 31, 2021 by shoemakerbugle
By Monserrat Juarez
23-year-old welterweight boxer and rising star Vergil Ortiz, Jr. now has a perfect record of 17-0 with 17 knockouts, to go with his WBO International welterweight title, after his most recent victory on March 20 against Maurice Hooker in Fort Worth, Texas.
The fight went on until the 7th round. Throughout the fight, Ortiz landed more punches than Hooker did, and both fighters showed off their speed and endurance. Ortiz very much wanted to go the 12-round distance with Maurice Hooker. However, in the 7th round, Hooker took a knee as a result of an injury. Hooker said he twisted his hand as he was trying to get a punch in. The fight came to an abrupt end on a TKO on account of Hooker's injury, and Ortiz kept his undefeated streak going.
After losing the boxing match against Ortiz, Hooker commented on his opponent's skills and power inside the ring by saying that he believed Ortiz, Jr. is soon to become a champion in the boxing world.
It's been a lifelong journey for Vergil Ortiz, Jr. At the age of 5, Ortiz began training with his father to become a boxer. Raised in Grand Prairie, Texas by his Mexican parents, he started boxing competitively at 8 years old and quickly surpassed his competitors in the ring.
As an amateur boxer, Ortiz had an impressive record, and his talent was quickly recognized by the CEO of Golden Boy Promotions, Oscar De la Hoya. In 2016, Vergil Ortiz signed with Golden Boy. Ortiz made his professional debut on July 30, 2016. Since his professional career took off, Ortiz has beaten every single one of his opponents by way of knockout.
Ortiz never even boxed beyond the 6th round until during a fight against Samuel Vargas on July 24, 2020. During the first few rounds, Ortiz used jabs with impressive accuracy. Throughout the fight, Ortiz was keeping Vargas at bay with his jabs. In the first round, Ortiz showed how effective he could be at finding new angles in the ring. He was able to get Vargas into a vulnerable position that left him exposed to Ortiz's body shots. The fight came to a stop after Vargas received several hits to the body and head.
Vergil Ortiz, Jr.'s record speaks for itself in and out of the ring. He is an intelligent and effective boxer. His level of discipline and determination is inspiring and proves that he is deserving of better opponents.

January has been a busy month for submissions, as I've been keeping a lot of stories out at all times, and my number of available stories is always growing! I only finished one to the point of submitting it this month, but I've been working on a lot of other stories and a novel!
My two acceptances this month were ones I announced here, "Brick Red Love" in The Arcanist and "Earworm" in Space Opera Libretti. I'm also waiting to hear on a handful of shortlisted stories, so hopefully I will have some really great announcements to make in February!
I finished winter and jack as planned, and started working on revisions for winter. I started stone a few times, but it just wouldn't take, so I put that one aside and started working on completing a different story ("soul") instead. I've finished my flash fiction pieces for each week of the contest (including the fifth one one this past weekend), but I've only gotten one of those out into circulation so far (the above-mentioned one new submission). I've reached the roughly halfway point on briar, and it's been a lot of fun to write. And I've finished up my couple of book reviews. So a really productive month of getting all the things done!
Revise winter, jack, and three flash pieces.
Finish writing soul and cryptid.
Not too bad, and I should end the month with five new submittable pieces!

Supply Chain and Logistics 101: Companies Connect with Undergrads
"Driving a forklift in a warehouse" and "moving stuff with trucks"—that's how the average college student describes logistics and supply chain management, say two Indiana business executives. Two Indianapolis-based companies—Allison Transmission and Backhaul Direct—are boosting efforts to connect with college students, spark their interest in logistics and supply chain careers, and ideally, groom future employees. Both operations are gaining traction with their efforts, but are further tweaking their strategies as logistics companies express a collective need for more employees.
"I want to make sure we have enough talent in the pipeline, so my competitor and I don't have to get into a bidding war over talent," says Backhaul Direct Chief Operating Officer and Chief People Officer Nicholas Hoagland. "It benefits everyone by exposing these kids to logistics and supply chain careers, so all of us have a better chance of filling the spots for the positions that we need." (LISTEN Hoagland1) 15102 TEMPLATE
Allison Transmission Global Supply Chain Executive Director Greg Chaney says the company will be hiring a large number of new employees over the next several years.
"Allison is a growing company, and there's increasing complexity in the supply chain every day; we just keep getting more and more global," says Chaney. "We have a lot of folks nearing retirement age, so one of the difficulties is finding enough qualified people to fill those positions. We all have the same issues with finding enough college graduates for our positions." (LISTEN Chaney1) 15104
Both Backhaul Direct and Allison Transmission have traditional internship programs, but realized a need to connect with college students more directly, within the first year or two on campus.
"[College students] really don't have an understanding of the complexity of what the modern supply chain really looks like and the sophisticated tools and skillsets that are required to effectively manage it," says Chaney. (LISTEN Chaney2) 15105
Allison Transmission and Backhaul Direct are combining efforts with other companies on the Conexus Indiana Logistics Council, a group within the state's advanced manufacturing and logistics initiative. The businesses are plotting the course for capturing future workers. In addition to internship programs, both companies are increasing campus visits, having students spend time at their operations and working with faculty to deliver a realistic view of logistics and supply chain careers.
"We've taken a very aggressive boots-on-the-ground approach with universities," says Hoagland. "I compare it to what you see in sports, where college coaches are recruiting kids from high school. We're doing that at the business level; going into the colleges, being aggressive trying to get candidates early in their college years to start thinking about a career in logistics at Backhaul Direct." (LISTEN Hoagland2) 15103
Hoagland says, because the company is smaller—about a 70-person operation—it focuses on recruiting students from smaller colleges and universities who might be looking for a similar feel in their work environment.
Both companies are also working with colleges throughout the state to increase the number of logistics and supply chain bachelor degree programs and update the curriculum for existing ones.
"We're seeing a lack of logistics and supply chain [degree programs], and we're hoping to get those numbers to grow," says Hoagland. "I think the universities are figuring out this is a great area of growth for them if they do it right. We're trying to get as many programs in place as possible."
The companies are working directly with Indiana University, Purdue University and Ball State University, which launched a major in logistics and supply chain management a few years ago.
"While we compete against each other for the best talent, we also want to make sure the pool that we all have to draw from is as deep as possible. Unless we grow that pool, we're all going to be in trouble," says Chaney. "We're stepping this up now that we've gotten interest from the universities, because they're all looking for their students to get good jobs when they graduate. We're seeing increased interest and more applicants, but we've got a long way to go."

I"m Janet I do the posting on the blog. I would love to hear from you. Leave a comment!
I have the pages on top of the blog organized by categories. If you're interested in a category hover your mouse over the topic then click on the state or topic.
Excellent goals, look forward to reading how you get there and help us get ready for full timing. Thanks!
Janet, I would love to dig into Genealogy but not sure where to start. I have paper copies of my family's background going back to my great grandfather. I even have a photo of him. I assume you use something like Ancestry.com.
It sounds like you have some great information to share about your family. The papers & photos you have could be scanned and posted on ancesty.com for other members of the family to see. I'm a beginner I enjoy learning about genealogy my main sources right now are family & ancesty.com.
I know I'm butting in here, but let me give a little advice based on experience.
First, start a spreadsheet (EXCEL, etcetera). Record every relative with every thing you know, at this time, adding columns as you need. Your first pass info might be as sparse as; Name, DOB, Father, Mother, brothers, sisters, Date of death, where buried, and short personal notes about the person, etc.
As you add to your list, you will find that you have other information about some that you don't have about others, but add columns anyway, you can edit things later.
Once you have several dozen people (or, hopefully more), sort the people by birthdate.
Talk to your relatives and send them a copy of your spreadsheet, asking them of they know any more about them, or if they know anything of others in your family tree. You will be surprised at the new information you get.
Then, update your spreadsheet and go to your local county courthouse and ask for records on the people on your list. Generally, they will let you access their books, on microfilm, or possibly the old books will have been scanned and you can read on their computers.
Update again, and now you will probably have some information on people several generations back. If they lived in another county or even another state, plan a short vacation there and look through their records.
I know this sounds like a lot of work, but my cousin took this task on when he retired, as a hobby of course. But he ended up with a CD full of data that he shared with me and my family tree goes back to 1647 in the US and there is even some data about my ancestors before they migrated to the states from Glamorgan Shire England.
It is a great hobby and all of your relatives will want a copy. LOL!
Good goals for the new year! Thanks for stopping in today at Cranberry Morning.

Memorable in the history of genius is the 23rd of April, as being at once the day of the birth and death of Shakspeare; and these events took place on the same spot, for at Stratford-upon-Avon this illustrious dramatist was born, in the year 1564, and here he also died, in 1616. It has been conjectured, that his first dramatic composition was produced when he was but twenty-five years old. He continued to write for the stage for a great number of years; occasionally, also, appearing as a performer: and at length, having, by his exertions, secured a fortune of two or three hundred a year, retired to his native town, where he purchased a small estate, and spent the remainder of his days in ease and honour.
When Washington Irving visited Stratford-upon-Avon, he was led to make the following elegant reflections on the return of the poet to his early home:—"He who has sought renown about the world, and has reaped a full harvest of worldly favours, will find, after all, that there is no love, no admiration, no applause, so sweet to the soul as that which springs up in his native place. It is there that he seeks to be gathered in peace and honour among his kindred and his early friends. And when the weary heart and failing head begin to warn him that the evening of life is drawing on, he turns as fondly as does the infant to the mother's arms, to sink in sleep in the bosom of the scene of his childhood. How would it have cheered the spirit of the youthful bard, when, wandering forth in disgrace upon a doubtful world, he cast a heavy look upon his pastoral home, could he have foreseen that, before many years, he should return to it covered with renown; that his name should become the boast and glory of his native place; that his ashes should be religiously guarded as its most precious treasure; and that its lessening spire, on which his eyes were fixed in tearful contemplation, should one day become the beacon, towering amidst the gentle landscape, to guide the literary pilgrim of every nation to his tomb!"
The accredited birth-place of Shakspeare has always been regarded with great interest: it is situate in a street in Stratford, retaining its ancient name of Henley, being the road to Henley-in-Arden. In 1574, here stood two houses, with a garden and orchard attached to each; and these houses were then purchased by John Shakspeare, whose son William was born in one of them, which still remains, though altered according to modern fashion. Its gable roofs are destroyed. Divided and subdivided into smaller tenements, part was converted into a little inn; part, the residence of a female who formerly showed the room where Shakspeare first saw the light, and the low-roofed kitchen where his mother taught him to read. The walls of the room in which he was born are literally covered with thousands of names, inscribed in homage by pilgrims from every region where the glory of Shakspeare is known. At the time when Shakspeare's father bought this house, it was, no doubt, quite a mansion, as compared with the majority of the houses in Stratford; but he little guessed the fame that would attach itself to this birth-place of his gifted son; long, we trust, to be preserved for the gratification of future generations of visitors to the hallowed spot. Besides his plays, Shakspeare was the author of several other poetical productions, and especially of a collection of sonnets.

WEST ALLIS - An unidentified man on April 5 mugged a local property manager shortly after she collected rent from her tenants in West Allis.
The 72-year-old woman told police that after collecting payments, she was struck in the head by a man who then took $760 in cash and a $400 money order, according to dispatch records.
Police responded to the 7000 block of West National Avenue just before 6:30 p.m. for the mugging, records said.
The victim initially declined medical care, but later went to a doctor on her own, said West Allis Deputy Chief Robert Fletcher.

Suzuki Motor Corporation has unveiled the all-new version of the Jimny on the Japanese market. The SUV is extremely popular around the world and is expected to replace the Maruti Suzuki Gypsy in India. Suzuki Motor Corporation has released a new Television Commercial (TVC) in English that shows the journey of a photographer.
The earlier released TVC showed the Suzuki Jimny Sierra, which is a more rugged version of the Jimny. In the new TVC video, the regular version has been shown. The TVC talks about a photographer's hardship and how far they have to travel to get a perfect shot. It shows a photographer driving around in the all-new Jimny and talking about his photography escapades. The promotional film shows the Jimny reaching extremely tough terrains with ease.
In the Japanese Domestic Market (JDM), the Jimny is priced at 14,58,000-19,06,200 JPY (approx Rs. 9.08 lakh to Rs. 11.87 lakh) while the Jimny Sierra costs 17,60,400-20,62,800 JPY (approx Rs. 10.94 lakh to Rs. 12.82 lakh). The all-new Jimny is expected to be heavily modified before the Indian launch to make it more cost-effective. The all-new Jimny is powered by a 0.66-litre, three-cylinder engine that produces a maximum power of 64 PS and a peak torque of 96 Nm.
The Jimny Sierra gets a more powerful 1.5-litre, four-cylinder engine that churns out a maximum of 101 PS and a peak torque of 130 Nm. The all-new engine will debut on the Indian market soon with the facelifted Ciaz and the all-new Ertiga. In the JDM, both the engines are offered with a manual 5-speed transmission and a 4-speed automatic transmission. It also gets a four-wheel drive system.
The all-new Jimny is built on the HEARTECT platform, which also underpins a lot of cars in India like the all-new Swift, Dzire and the Baleno. The new boxy, straight-lined design of the Jimny gives it a very G-Wagen-inspired look. It gets a pair of round headlamps at the front with LEDs (Daytime Running Lamps). It also gets 15-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels finished in gunmetal grey. On the inside, the all-new Jimny gets a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with a new three-spoke steering wheel.
