A violent world
11 September 2001 was a watershed. It is one of those dates concerning which one can speak of 'before' and 'after'. It was one kind of world before and another after. Never has an act of terror been so destructive, so well co-ordinated, and so widely covered by media in real time.
Peoples around the world watched petrified as the TV screens replayed again and again the sequence of events: planes crashing into buildings; horrific explosions; towers collapsing; human bodies falling. How could anyone forget?
The aftermath was a quick succession of images. Americans united in rage. Strikes against the Taleban. Anthrax attacks in the mail. The world has suddenly become familiar with Arabic names: Al-Qaeda, Osama Bin Laden.
And while the US-led coalition labours the point that this is not an anti-Islamic campaign, the world is eerily aware of the preponderance of Islamic extremists in the dark world of terrorism.
These extremists are hailed as heroes by many Muslims. This adds to the terror that grips the world. For there is nothing like the violence of the religious.
Welcome to the violent 21st century! Or is it really anything new? Certainly the 'weapons' are new and the media coverage unprecedented. But violence is the story of world history since time immemorial.
Nero's cruelty against Christians makes the stomach turn – he made human torches of them. Rome itself was at the receiving end of an ancient terror attack by the Visigoths.
The Crusades of the Middle Ages, that sought to regain control of the Holy City of Jerusalem from the Muslims, were littered with atrocities in the name of the Christian religion.
The face of Osama Bin Laden is just the latest in a 'Hall of Infamy' that includes Hannibal, Genghis Khan, the Spanish Inquisition, Stalin, Hitler and Amin. Different personalities and periods with different motivations – but all notable for their terror and violence. The record of history reveals a violent world.
Highest view
After the very first act of terror when a brother killed his own, the world steadily eroded into a violent planet. At one stage it became so violent that it needed God's intervention through the Flood: 'Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight and was full of violence' (Genesis 6:11).
Following the Flood, God gave the world a new start. In doing so, he gave Noah an institution that was meant to curb violence in the human community: 'Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made man' (Genesis 9:6).
The purpose of this principle is to preserve society against terror. Capital punishment is society's total rejection of the violent. It rests on the highest view of the human creation, namely that man is made 'in the image of God'.
By combining a God-oriented view of man and a judicial life-for-life punishment of the offender, human society can survive even in the presence of violent men. God himself has shown us the means by which violent behaviour may be held in check.
Progressive views
Unfortunately, on both these counts, human society has regressed. Claiming progressive views, many have espoused ideas of humanity that view man as having only a biological, or at best a social, function.
Man, they tell us, is just a happenstance in a story of evolution and survival. The idea that man is basically religious, and made by and for God, is now considered crude and fundamentalist.
It is little wonder that the same progressive views have watered down the implementation of justice. The word 'punishment' itself is now too strong. Everything must be remedial and corrective, nothing exemplary or punitive.
The world has departed from God and reshaped justice into a softer mould. In that world, violence thrives.
Violence is part of the depravity of man. In Paul's catalogue of human sinfulness, he quotes from the Old Testament: 'Their feet are swift to shed blood; ruin and misery mark their ways' (Romans 3:15-16).
That violent nature led terrorists to initiate the horrific sequences of September 11. But, on a smaller scale, we see the violent nature of fallen man displayed in daily occurrences, such as murders, muggings, rapes, wilful injuries, cursing, and so on.
The church is sent to such a violent world with the message of 'Jesus Christ and him crucified'. It is a gospel of peace and reconciliation, but one that calls men first and foremost to be reconciled to God. It is God-ward before it is social.
Why? Because man's original alienation is from his Creator and God. Only through a restored relationship with God can the walls of partition and enmity between men be broken down.
Moreover, the church of Christ is the manifestation of this new humanity, for it consists of people who are reconciled to one another because they are reconciled to God. Let us make sure that we do indeed manifest this character, by obeying Christ's 'new commandment' to love one another as he has loved us (John 15:12).
As long as the Lord preserves a faithful church on earth, there is hope for the fulfilment of the prophetic vision: 'They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore' (Isaiah 2:4).

Even if the family Rosso has owned vineyards in Serralunga for more than a century, the company Giovanni Rosso was founded only in 1995, when the young Davide Rosso took the reins of the family Estate.
Davide is a young and talented wine maker, educated in Burgundy with famous producers such as Domaine Jean Grivot and Denis Mortet. He adopted a fresh and natural approach to his wine that he produces starting from the 12 hectares of vineyards in La Serra, Cerretta, Broglio, Meriame, Sorano, Costa Bella, Lirano e Damiano Crus of Serralunga. The vineyards are managed naturally, without using pesticides nor herbicides.
Fermentation takes place thanks to indigenous yeast in concrete vats, without controlling the temperature. The ageing instead, takes place in French oak barrels. This is considered as a different approach compared to the traditional method of wine making that prefers Slavonian oak casks.
Recently Davide inherited from his father a part of the very famous vineyard in Serralunga, Vigna Rionda. From this vineyard, he produces a limited number of bottles of Barolo, intended to become part of the history of its denomination.
"Founded in 1890, the estate has recently become one of the brightest emerging stars in Barolo. Owner Davide Rosso studied winemaking in France and is taking the wines to a new level: all his wine speak clearly of Serralunga.....Rosso's first vintage (2011) of his Tommasso Canale cuvee from the Vigna Rionda cru will also be released soon. This is sparking great excitement among Barolo aficionados as the cru is considered by many to be Barolo's greatest."

Q: How would I loop my code to have 4 histograms instead of 1? N <- 10000 ; maxbound = 20

one_side_normal <- function(N) {
  f <- numeric(N);
  for (i in 1:N) {
    X = rexp(1,rate=1);
    uniform = runif(1);
    while (uniform>exp((-X^2)+X) ){
      X = rexp(1,rate=1);
      uniform=runif(1);
    }
    f[i] <- X
  }
  return(f)
}

The above code samples from a one sided normal distribution(sample =10000) using the acceptance-rejection method. How would I loop this code to run 4 separate times for samples of 10,100,1000 & 10000?

A: We can use lapply to loop over the N values and apply the function.  As there is only a single argument, we don't need any lambda function.  It will return a list
lst1 <- lapply(c(10, 100, 1000, 10000), one_side_normal)

Another option is the classic for loop.  To store the output, we can create a NULL list of fixed length i.e length of the vector of 'N' values.  Then, loop over the sequence of 'N', apply the function and assign (<-) the output to the corresponding list element with that index
nvec <- c(10, 100, 1000, 10000)
lst1 <- vector('list', length(nvec))
for(i in seq_along(nvec)) lst1[[i]] <- one_side_normal(nvec[[i]])


An SEF Scholarship offers holistic support to the Students by matching them with Mentors and Buddies as well as ongoing training through the Support and Development Programme.
In turn the Mentors and Buddies are also upskilled so that they might best support the students.
Eight scholarships per annum are awarded to high achieving school leavers studying at an Auckland university. Up to four students may receive financial assistance through the SEF programme. Generally we look for students studying in the area of Business or Property associated degrees but sometimes we find a fantastic student that sits outside this area whom we choose to support.
A Mentor is a role model in the student's aspired field who can provide guidance and inspiration to help them get there. They form a relationship lasting the length of the scholarship and beyond and help with the student's professional and personal development.
Buddies are a second or third year student at the SEF recipient's university pursuing a similar course of study. They meet regularly throughout the first year of the programme and aid the recipient in the transition from school to university life. Buddies also receive financial assistance for their studies.
Students will be placed in at least two weeks of relevant work experience in their chosen field. This may be paid or unpaid, but will give the students some real life experience and networking opportunities.
SEF is grateful for the support of our partners who help our programme by providing office, meeting and workshop spaces as well as assisting with professional support. The Urban Partners and Cressida Capital Teams are always happy to spend time with the SEF Students and many have become Mentors for our Students. Dilworth Trust Board are very supportive of the work SEF is doing with so many of their Old Boys and see SEF as an important part of the school community.
The SEF Programme is truly inspirational and aspirational. All students receive support from mentors and buddies, work experience placements within the industry of their choice, and a support and development programme targeted at each year group. In addition to this, in September 2017 we launched a Mentee Assistance Programme (MAP) overseen by a Clinical Psychologist to enable our programme to provide professional psychological assistance if there is a need.
Sponsorship of our students is one way of making a difference to a student's life. Sponsorship can be tagged to a student or, depending on the donor's preferences, can be linked to a specific part of the programme and/or just assist the operation of our programme. SEF can tailor sponsorship to meet your needs and the extent of your contribution.
Currently SEF have sponsors who support our students and buddies, and while they appreciate being acknowledged through our website and newsletters, their true satisfaction is gained from being a part of a student's growth. We would welcome you to learn more about becoming a sponsor by clicking on the box below.
Support and Development workshops will be run for students periodically. These workshops will cover a variety of personal development and employment skills such as CV writing and interview skills.

Meet the Felines Behind Spider-Cat in 'Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales'
The purrrfect companion for Miles.
by Rachel Paige
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales | Spider-Cat
While swinging across Marvel's New York City, he also swung into our hearts. No, the answer to this isn't Miles Morales — though he does rank pretty high — but rather Spider-Man the Cat. Or as he has become lovingly known on the internet, "Spider-Cat."
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales features this new crime fighting feline who assists Miles on missions. After Miles saves Spider-Cat and returns him back to his owner, The Bodega Suit is unlocked, giving players the ability to actually take Spider-Cat with you through the city. And not only is Spider-Cat a fun accessory to have in Miles' backpack, but he's got his own cat finishers, too. While, obviously, cat finishers seem like a no brainer, they weren't always a part of the game.
"When I found out we had a cat wearing a Spider-Man mask in this game, I jokingly said that we should create cat finishers. Everyone chuckled and that is where it ended," Boola Robello, a Senior Animator who worked on Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, along with Marvel's Spider-Man, explained to Marvel.com. But, still thinking about it, Robello decided to try animating what a cat finisher might look like.
"I sent out a video of my animation to the team, and before I knew it our Creative Director Brian Horton was asking for a compressed video so he could run it by [Director of Production at] Marvel Games, Eric Monacelli," Robello Continued. "After approval, we moved it onto my schedule and into official production. I coordinated with Senior Programmer Paul Hiley, and with his programming we worked out the technicalities to make the cat finisher a functional move for the game."
Boola Robello: "For Halloween I got into costume as Insomniac Spider-Man and our pup wore a Spidey mask posing the question if Miles has a cat, does Peter have a dog?"
While Robello worked on the animation, Johannes Hammers stepped in to assist with the sound design for the cat finishers — and it all started with him just asking around if anyone had a cat.
"I put out a 'cat-casting-call' to two of my fellow Insomniacs who I knew had cats. I knew [dialogue coordinator] Tyler Held had a cat. I asked him if he had any recordings and I ended up using those for the meow/purring sounds as Spider-Man the cat goes back into the backpack. [Tyler's cat] Kevin had the perfect attitude of 'Yep, just took care of those bad guys' and now it's back into the safety of my backpack feeling. I had heard [Director, Audio Management] Karen Read's] cat on zoom calls, and Juicy the cat had the perfect 'I mean business' meow that is in the 'ground finisher.'"
If you're scratching for more information about Spider-Cat, Marvel.com spoke to the cats (and their humans) about their involvement in the game. Here's the who's who and who you'll hear and see meowing in the game.
Name: Hawke

What the cat's human worked on for Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales: Tyler Held – Dialogue Coordinator (PD Sound).
Fun fact about the cat: Kevin got his name after I found him in the snow at a family Christmas party. I opened my car door to leave and he decided to jump in. I didn't want him to be Home Alone on Christmas.
How the cat has reacted to fame since the game's release: Went straight to his head. He's been demanding more food and wants to go buy a Catillac…
Cat's favorite Spider-Man issue: Anything that involves Black Cat, he has a crush.
What other Marvel pet would the cat like to team up with for a dynamic duo? Bill the Lobster, although I am not sure of Kevin's true motives there.

Cat's favorite Spider-Man issue: Avenging Spider-Man issue #5, where he teams up with Captain America.
What other Marvel pet would the cat like to team up with for a dynamic duo? I think Juicy & Goose (aka Chewie) could become BFF's…

Govt to provide satellite imagery of Billion Tree Tsunami project to SC
Daily Times Monitor
The federal government will be providing details of the Billion Tree Tsunami project to the Supreme Court including satellite imagery, Geo News reported Saturday.
A meeting took place between Prime Minister Imran Khan and Special Assistant for Climate Change Malik Amin Aslam in this regard, after which the premier issued instructions for the provision of all relevant records to the court.
During the meeting, the premier decided to obtain a record of drone videos and authentic images of the Billion Tree project. Moreover, the federal government has requested data from all provinces following the court's orders, while SUPARCO has been asked to provide satellite images.
In this regard, the Ministry of Climate Change has penned letters to provincial secretaries of forest departments and chief secretaries asking for the project's data from 2019 to June 2020.
Take the notice seriously
The ministry has demanded that the provinces — along with the requested data — send pictures of the trees as well.
According to sources, 10 billion Tree Tsunami Project Director Muhammad Suleiman Khan has been appointed as the chairman of the 10-member committee that will submit the ministry's reply to the apex court.
The prime minister has directed the Ministry of Climate Change to take the SC's notice seriously, sources added.


Celta Vigo's option to buy clause in their deal for Sofiane Boufal is priced at €15 million, according to Marca.
The La Liga outfit completed a season-long loan move for the Southampton winger during the last summer transfer window, with the Moroccan not figuring in Mark Hughes's plans at the club.
Boufal struggled in his first two seasons at St Mary's Stadium and was involved in a dressing room bust-up with the former Saints boss during the team's 3-2 defeat against Chelsea in the Premier League last term.
The former LOSC Lille star has hardly enjoyed a strong season in Spain, either, and has been a part of Celta's underperforming team who are fighting for their lives down at the bottom of La Liga.
When the deal for Boufal was announced, it was claimed that the Spanish side would have the option to make the winger's stay permanent should he impress enough on loan.
No figure was disclosed, but it seems now that Celta will be forced to spend a sizable sum on the player.
Marca reports that the La Liga strugglers are reluctant to spend the €15 million fee on Boufal at the end of the season, and a lower price would need to be negotiated.
Boufal introduced himself to the St Mary's faithful with a wonder goal on his full debut. He plucked the ball out of the air before curling home exceptionally to send Southampton past Sunderland in their route to the EFL Cup final.
Boufal was again the hero in a narrow 1-0 win, this time in the Premier League. He drove a long-distance effort into the back of the Boro net on his weaker left foot to secure Claude Puel's side a victory.
Boufal netted one of the club's greatest ever goals as Southampton beat West Brom 1-0. He ran from inside his half past the challenges of several Baggies players before coolly slotting the ball into the bottom corner, clinching three points in a dull match for the hosts.
Boufal's most recent goal for Southampton wasn't a significant one. His low effort beat Hugo Lloris at Wembley Stadium, but it wasn't enough to claw the Saints back into the match as Tottenham defeated them 5-2.

New Freedom page for Matt 6:24 blog..
Since its inception, the Matt 6:24 blog has displayed navigation links at the top, organized in a series that reads Blog About Freedom. The first link is the blog itself (of course) and the other two links have been virtually empty for months with only the words "coming soon..." at the top (which you can still see on the about page, lol).
I live, work, play, walk, even run in freedom as I watch so many of my peers running endlessly, aimlessly. This blog documents my journeys as I explore the world beyond the hamster wheel.
Just a short note, Gio about almost 27 yrs old and Matt. 6:24.In studies I can tell you that you no longer have to muse over theories, everything you need is in the KJV. You will find the most excellant material for your songs and great revelation for your life and work You will be prosperous in all your works.


The debate over application of peer review to the regulatory decisions of administrative agencies has heated up in the last year. Part of the larger and controversial sound science movement, mandating peer review for certain types of agency decisions has recently been championed by the White House and proponents in Congress. Indeed, this past January the Office of Management and Budget finalized guidelines requiring peer review for large classes of agency activities. These initiatives have not gone unchallenged, and a fierce debate has resulted between those who claim peer review will strengthen the scientific basis of agency decisions and those who contend that peer review will politicize and burden agency activities. While peer review is fast becoming an integral and controversial part of agency behavior, it has received remarkably little scholarly attention. This article presents a comprehensive and current examination of peer review and is supported by new empirical data. To help sharpen our analysis, we conducted a nationwide survey of environmental law practitioners - lawyers who regularly practice on behalf of or before agencies with substantial regulatory missions. Most advocates of regulatory peer review argue that agencies regularly overstate the extent of scientific support for their policy decisions and that peer review will help correct that problem. Its critics contend it will unduly slow down agency decision-making. Our survey results suggest that those who actually practice regulatory law believe both of those propositions are likely. The challenge, therefore, is how to derive the benefits of regulatory peer review while minimizing its costs. Based on our survey, our evaluation of research from a wide variety of fields, and our own experience, which includes co-author J.B. Ruhl's tenure as the lawyer on a National Academy of Sciences committee that conducted the first high-profile peer review under the Endangered Species Act, we believe that peer review can assist the transparency and legitimacy of agency decisions by sharpening the line between scientific support and policy judgment in agency decision-making. Yet neither we nor anyone else who has entered the debate can say whether this benefit outweighs the costs that would result from adding such a procedure to agency processes, for the simple reason that nobody has produced robust empirical evidence to answer three basic questions - do agencies regularly overstate the scientific support for their decisions; if so, does this practice make a difference in terms of the policy merits of their decisions; and if so, does regulatory peer review provide a cost-effective means of correcting the practice? This gap in empirical data points to our proposed solution. We argue that regulatory peer review should take advantage of another practice of science - random sampling - in order to serve a diagnostic function in addition to its quality improvement function. By applying rigorous peer review to the science component of a small number of selected regulatory decisions, regulatory peer review could (a) help in defining the scope of the problem of agency overstatement of scientific support and (b) induce agencies to pay more attention to clearly articulating where science ends and policy judgment begins in the justification of their decisions. We provide the details of the proposal in the closing section of the manuscript.


Home » Canadian history • Does History Matter?
So said the vice-provost of Duke University to Jane Moss, the director of the university's Center for Canadian Studies, as he recommended "re-purposing" the endowment that had funded the Centre. This long-lasting centre closed as of 2014, turned into a "Council for North American Studies." The place of Canada in this new structure has been reduced, and the funds originally intended for the study of Canada now will be used in different ways.
Some Canadians may be surprised to learn the Duke University, located in North Carolina, had a Center for Canadian Studies. Even before the formal establishment of the centre in 1974, Duke was one of the most important universities in advancing the knowledge of Canada. A specialist in the history of the British Commonwealth, Richard Preston was appointed in 1965 as the William K. Boyd Professor of History. Preston directed a number of PhD dissertations on Canadian topics, including those of leading scholars like Andrée Lévesque and J.L. Granatstein. In the late 1960s, only a few universities in Canada offered the PhD in History, and given the climate of the time, it often proved difficult to justify pursuing a Canadian topic even in Canada. Many Canadians travelled abroad, to the United Kingdom, the United States or France to pursue their degrees. Anglophone scholars studied under specialists in the history of the British Commonwealth and Empire, one of the few ways that Canadian history could find its historiographical niche. Distinguished scholars like Richard Preston at Duke played key roles in developing the nascent field of Canadian Studies around the globe.
From the mid-1970s, the Canadian government supported the expansion of Canadian Studies in universities inside and outside the country, and they often encouraged private sector benefactors that this goal was useful. As a result, different foundations emerged to fund academic activity to promote the study of the country. The funds offered by the government and private funders were essential pump-priming exercises, but it is important to emphasize that local universities and governments covered the vast majority of salary and overhead costs.
The return on the Canadian investments was extraordinary. For four decades, the academic study of – and equally if not more important – university-level teaching on Canada expanded around the globe. The umbrella organization for Canadian Studies scholars, the International Council for Canadian Studies, estimates that there are over 7000 Canadianists around the globe. Many international scholars decided to study the country because of their own intellectual interests, but Canadian government and private sector funds helped to bring them to Canada to pursue research, develop their teaching capacities and establish intellectual networks.
Former director Jane Moss points out that the Canadian government, as one of the original donors to the endowment of the Duke University centre, was likely approached to agree to the "repurposing" of the funds. In a previous activehistory.ca post, I detailed the actions of the Canadian High Commission in Britain in redirecting the funding controlled by the Foundation for Canadian Studies in the United Kingdom (despite the "arm's length" status between the High Commission and the Foundation, as indicated in the annual reports to the UK's Charity Commission). The parallels between the Duke University Center's funding and the Foundation in the UK are striking. One would not normally expect a nation's government to be hostile to specialists interested in the country.
Against that negative backdrop, it is essential to recognize that a good deal of Canadian Studies activity continues on the international stage. Many established and younger scholars continue to be drawn to the study of the country for entirely legitimate intellectual reasons: interest in Canadian experiences of multiculturalism, First Nations, Inuit and métis peoples, national diasporas, the excellent Canadian literature in English and French, comparative histories, business and economic understandings of an OECD country, federalism and so on. People around the world have good reasons to understand Canada. In fact, the government of the United Kingdom today could well benefit from a deeper understanding of Canadian federalism and the challenges posed by successful nationalist political parties at the sub-state level. Fortunately, around the globe, many university faculty and students dedicate their time and energy to ensuring that Canadian Studies activities continue in their countries.
If the current Canadian government does not support international Canadian Studies, it is time for Canadians to show that they do. The International Council for Canadian Studies has launched a crowd-sourcing campaign to raise funds to support graduate student scholarships, internships and other activities. Its goals are modest, and I hope that we can easily surpass them. Please consider a donation to the ICCS: http://www.iccs-ciec.ca/make-donation.php. Even a modest $10 donation shows that Canadians support for work of our colleagues around the globe.
 The only reference to funding on the Council for North American Studies website refers to the external Fulbright Scholar Program : http://jhfc.duke.edu/canadianstudies/funding/.
http://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/Showcharity/RegisterOfCharities/DocumentList.aspx?RegisteredCharityNumber=267927&SubsidiaryNumber=0&DocType=AccountList (on page 9 of the "Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 July 2014"). Three of the eight voting trustees of the Foundation are currently employees of the Canadian High Commission. High Commissioner Gordon Campbell serves, as have previous High Commissioners, as an ex-officio observer. http://www.canadian-studies-uk.org/board/.
Prof. Granatstein has corrected me: Richard Preston was not his PhD supervisor. Ted Ropp was. My apologies for the mistake.
As someone who is not particularly enamoured with the "Stephen Harper" branding of everything from Canada, or Canadian I understand completely the essence of the policy generally.
This particular policy is the antithesis of Harper's personal and professional interests. Hence unlikely his. Someday I am sure Historians will write of the last decade as the missing period of Canadian History. A time when Canada and Canadian were replaced by actions of Stephen Harper, Harper Nation and by Harperland. Personalizing the actions in contrast, will allow a much kinder gentler view of Canada and Canadians.
Similarly the scourge of the Harper Party will allow the Conservatives to rebound this time in a much shorter period than after Mulroney. Long live marketers from Obama land.
As a descendant of Loyalists from Vermont and Conneticut I definitely support the study of our History from outside our Borders.
The result IMO, neither the ministers, nor the Party will be as scorched by the fires that will engulf them when it crumbles, nor will Canada.

If you love gardening and enjoy sharing your knowledge with others, the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE), Fresno & Madera Counties, Master Gardener program might be for you. Prospective Master Gardeners complete a 16-week training course, pass a final exam, and complete a 50 hour requirement of hands-on training during the first 12 months.
The training is offered in odd years. Instructors are University of California Cooperative Extension advisors, horticultural specialists and community experts. The curriculum provides a practical course in horticulture and plant science. Topics include an introduction to horticulture; soil and plant nutrition; water and fertilizer management; pest identification and control; home vegetable gardening; plant diseases and diagnosis; composting; weed identification and management; and much more. A passing grade of at least 70% on the final exam is required.
A link to the required on-line application will be provided on this website during the summer before the class year. The next application window is June 15 to August 31, 2020.
Applicants are invited to Meet the Master Gardeners, a meeting at the UC Center, where they will schedule an interview appointment. Applicants must demonstrate effective communications skills, the ability to work with the public, willingness and ability to fulfill volunteer hour requirements and an interest in gardening.
If accepted, a DOJ background check is required, regardless if you have one on file already. The course fee of $250 covers training and support expenses.

Call the helpline and chat with a Master Gardener about the program.
The Master Gardener concept originated in 1972 in Washington State. With a growing interest in home gardening and an increase in the volume of research-based information available, a group of university extension advisers sought a better way to disseminate information to the public. Thus, the Master Gardener Program was born. Introduced in California in 1979, with pilot programs in Riverside and Sacramento counties, there are now over 40 Master Gardener Programs in California. Madera County has participated since 1989.
If you have additional questions about the UC Cooperative Extension Master Gardener program in Fresno County, call the helpline at559-241-7534.


2016 marks the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death and what better way to celebrate the life of the bard than with a tour around the locations that provided the stage upon which his life played out. This journey will take you to all of the places that were significant in Shakespeare's life and since his death travelling from London through the heart of the beautiful Cotswolds to Stratford-Upon-Avon.
We begin our tour at London's National Portrait Gallery where we can see the famous Chandos Portrait. This picture is the only portrait of Shakespeare which has a good claim to have been painted from life and is also the first portrait that the National Gallery acquired when it was founded in 1856. From Trafalgar Square we head down to Westminster Abbey, going past the Palace of Whitehall where Shakespeare's plays were performed for Queen Elizabeth I in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. At Westminster Abbey we will visit poet's corner to admire the life-size marble statue which was erected 124 years after Shakespeare's death as a memorial to the beloved poet and playwright. After lunch we cross over the river Thames to London's vibrant Southbank. After a visit to Southwark Cathedral to see the beautiful window and statue that were made in Shakespeare's honour we will see one of the bard's plays performed in the magnificent Globe theatre.
Shakespeare's greatest and most famous patron was Queen Elizabeth I and many of his plays were performed privately for the Queen at Court. The 'Virgin Queen' even featured as a figure in several of his plays, most notably, perhaps, in A Midsummer Night's Dream as "a fair vestal throned by the West". Today we visit the sites of two of the royal residences where Shakespeare's company performed for the Queen in what was Greenwich Palace and Richmond Palace. Greenwich Palace was left in disrepair during the turbulent reign of Charles I and the Commonwealth that followed and the site is now home to the spectacular Old Royal Naval College, just a few minutes' walk from Cutty Sark. On the South West side of Richmond Green, just a short walk from the river Thames, it is still possible to wander around what remains of Richmond Palace.
Leaving London, we arrive in Oxford, one of the greatest and oldest seats of literature and learning in the whole world. It is no surprise, then, that in order to mark the 400th centenary of Shakespeare's death, Oxford is putting on a year-long festival to celebrate the life and work of England's most influential poet. Spend the day exploring this beautiful and historic city and discovering the various Shakespearean exhibits and attractions located around Oxford.
In North Oxfordshire lies the picturesque moated manor, Broughton Castle. Broughton Castle is one of the very best grand houses in the whole of England and was chosen used as the set for Viola's house in the Academy Award winning film Shakespeare in Love. Spend a relaxing day exploring this historic fortified manor and its superbly maintained gardens.
Last but certainly not least is the town which is most closely associated with the life of William Shakespeare: Stratford-Upon-Avon. It is in this beautiful Cotswolds town that Shakespeare was born, educated and married and here that he died and was laid to rest. We will visit the house which was his birthplace, the cottage of his beloved wife Anne Hathaway and see his funerary monument in Holy Trinity Church. The final evening of our tour will be crowned by a performance of one of the bard's plays in the world famous Royal Shakespeare Theatre.

Q: What evidence is there that $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ is ample? A field $K$ is called ample if every smooth curve over $K$ that has a $K$-point has infinitely many $K$-points. Examples include fraction fields of henselian rings. (This is far from trivial, but was proven in the paper "henselian implies large". "Large" is a synonym for "ample".) For example the field of $p$-adics, for any prime $p$, is ample.
I have known for a long time that $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ is conjectured to be ample, but I don't know how much evidence there is for this conjecture. Can you direct me to some references supporting this conjecture, or suggest heuristic arguments that would explain why this conjecture is reasonable?

A: It seem like most of the evidence is rather indirect. The ampleness of $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ would settle other open conjectures/questions:

*

*By a result of Pop, it would imply the following conjecture of Shafarevich:

Conjecture: The Galois group of $\mathbb{Q}^{ab}$ is a free profinite group.

*

*By a result of Fehm and Petersen, the ampleness conjecture would imply an affirmative answer to the following question of Frey and Jarden:

Question: Is the rank of $A(\mathbb{Q}^{ab})$ infinite for every non-trivial abelian variety $A/\mathbb{Q}$?
There are partial results and evidence for both of these conjectures/question that are independent of the ampleness conjecture. For example the answer to the above question is known to be "yes" for elliptic curves, and for some other families of abelian varieties.
You can read more about this in this survey of Fehm and Bary-Soroker on ample fields and in the references therein.

Logistics first: Justin and I were in the office all week; Dan spent half of it in Tallinn presenting at Creative Entrepreneurship for a Competitive Economy; and Marco was around until today, when he left for Tapiei to give a pair of talks at the IDA World Congress. This upcoming week Justin will be at the Design Management Institute event in New York and I will be at CMD in Buenos Aires to give a presentation there. We all have some copies of the book in our luggage, so say hi if you want one.
Back at home, we enjoyed hosting Norway's Agency for Public Management and eGovernment (Difi) who came to visit on Thursday. Together with Sitra colleagues Sari, Ossi, and Marja we had a good conversation about the challenge of balancing the need to change public sector culture with the realities of having to do so in a non-disruptive way. This conversation echoed some of the things we discussed in our meeting with the UK Cabinet office mentioned here, as well as the general tone of MindLab's How Public Design? seminar in September.
Budgeting exercises continue, as does the ongoing process of shaping a portfolio of projects for 2012. More about this when we have something stable to share.
We're happy to announce that we've added two more bookshops to our fledgling distribution network for the book. Booklounge in Cape Town, South Africa and the SFMOMA Museum in San Francisco, USA will shortly have copies on sale.
Meanwhile, Marco has been steadfastly making his way through out mailing list, sending out copies to some of our stakeholders. His signature-singining fingers are getting a good workout.
Last week Dan entertained us with a quirky video from Finland's history, this week we go to Canada where they've created a creepy origin myth out of Marshall McLuhan's famous line "the medium is the message."
Recently I happened to spot a micro-protest in a different medium in the subway tubes of Helsinki. Someone has posted EI KIITOS ("no thanks") stickers on most of the advertisements. I like that in both examples there's a politeness to the protest, even if a bit facetious. OWS is by far the more interesting of the two because of the infrastructure that the community has had to build now.
While they are definitely saying no to something, they protestors are also obliged to prototype a constructive example of how to organize human society. And not just the mic checks described above, but an entire miniture society including its own food service, sanitation department, library, and more.
Like any society, that one that has bootstrapped itself in Zuccotti Park has its own issues. Chris Cobb describes in Domus the group's creation of special women-only sleeping areas, for instance, which seems to imply that it's no oasis.
Lately I've been reading a lot of materials from open source movements and feeling as though we're living through a moment similar to the birth of the hippies in the 1960s, and the specific of the OWS story underline this thought. It also strikes me as a particularly American form of protest: complain, sure, but mostly just build the thing you want somewhere else. When you're condemming the global financial system, however, I'm not sure there is a somewhere else. And that's the problem.
Regardless of how the occupation plays out, I hope that one of the more lasting outcomes is an enhanced recognition of the need to develop a new culture of decision making. There are issues when the decisions of 1% outweigh the other 99, as there are when one form of value, such as finacial gain, dominate all others, like environmental and social returns.
A new culture is already emerging as public outrage, social media, and generally high levels of complexity begin to intersect. The real question is whether our formal democratic forums—our parliaments—will be able to handle it in a constructive way. Or if they end up in fisticuffs.
Note: We've had a bit of a technical problem with this post so it disappeared for a better part of Sunday. Sorry about that!
All of us from Difi (Agency of Public Management and e-Government) are greatful that you managed to receive us early Thursday morning last week. Thank you, both Karoliina, that I met at Nordic Techpolitics in Oslo, you Brian, Ossi, Marja and Sari. Your presentations and our discussions were very inspiring and gave us a lot to think about concerning our working methods and plans for future projects.
The way Sitra dare to stir up the existing way of thinking, challenge the public sector management and find independent and new ways, exite us.


A native of Peculiar, Missouri, Hensley spent several years in private practice before Gov. Bob Holden appointed her as Cass County prosecutor in 2005. She replaced Chris Koster, who had just won a seat (as a Republican) to the Missouri Senate. Hensley spent roughly a decade as Cass County prosecutor and successfully prosecuted a number of high-profile murder cases.
In 2012, Hensley challenged U.S. Rep. Vicky Hartzler, R-Harrisonville, to represent the 4th Congressional District, which includes swaths of western and central Missouri. Hartzler won re-election by a wide margin. Two years later, Hensley lost re-election as Cass County prosecutor.
Hensley entered the Democratic attorney general's race soon after state Sen. Scott Sifton, D-Affton, bowed out of the contest. Even though St. Louis County Assessor Jake Zimmerman outspent her during the primary, Hensley emerged victorious by a fairly decisive margin. Her television ads started airing throughout Missouri, and they emphasize her experience as a prosecutor.
She recently had a "great visit" with Zimmerman, who has vigorously backed Hensley's general election bid. "I look forward to what he has in his future in Missouri and politics -- and will support him along the way," she said.
Responding to Hawley's assertion that she doesn't have enough appellate experience, Hensley said she's argued in front of appellate courts in private practice and as Cass County prosecutor. She noted that she argued in front of the Missouri Supreme Court to remove a county official.
Hensley panned a recently enacted gun law that, among other things, makes it easier to conceal and carry a weapon. "It's probably one of the worst bills that we can possibly have," she said. "We're the first state since Florida to have done a 'Stand Your Ground' [law]."
In the humble opinions of national pundits that monitor congressional races, Jason Kander pretty much came out nowhere to get on their national radar.
On the latest edition of the Politically Speaking podcast, St. Louis Public Radio's Jason Rosenbaum and Jo Mannies welcome Republican Randy Jotte to the program for the first time.
Jotte is running against state Sen. Scott Sifton in the 1st Senatorial District, which takes in portions of St. Louis County. Since the 1st District is somewhat evenly divided between political parties, the Jotte-Sifton match-up is one of the most competitive state Senate contests in Missouri.
On the latest edition of the Politically Speaking podcast, St. Louis Public Radio's Jason Rosenbaum and Jo Mannies welcome back state Sen. Scott Sifton to the show for the fourth time.

Recently I talked about a new print spooler under development, printerd. In that post I mentioned briefly how printerd is structured, but did not go very deeply into why or what the project is for.
Firstly, printerd is experimental and is very far from being a functional print spooler. It doesn't yet run any filters, for instance, and has no backends of its own to transport jobs to devices. So far it is just a test of what a Linux print spooler would look like if it were written today.
There are several problems printerd aims to solve. Some of the solutions come automatically from implementing it as a polkit-enabled D-Bus system service. I mentioned one of them in the original post about printer: the fact of having an asynchronous client API. All D-Bus services can be used asynchronously thanks to the D-Bus client library. This approach means the print dialog will be able to use printerd without blocking (and without having to start another thread to use it).
It is a polkit-enabled D-Bus system service, written using the GLib object system. Although modelled on concepts from IPP (Internet Printing Protocol), printerd is not in itself an IPP server. Its only interface is D-Bus, although the aim is to be able to implement an IPP server on top of the D-Bus API as a separate process. Having a D-Bus interface means that applications wanting to print automatically get to use printerd asynchronously.
As a design decision, the range of input formats accepted by printerd will be very limited: essentially only PDF. The existing CUPS drivers and backends will be compatible with printerd.
There isn't much written yet aside from the basic framework and a very simple command line tool.

I was walking to the car park this morning after buying breakfast from the hawker centre but found the path blocked. Some folks were staring and snapping pictures of this monkey. I decided I must also have a souvenir photo too but I was too slow to catch it in the better pose. It was sitting on the railing (see left of photo) and the attention must have caused it to move away.
I think this is worrying. There is a huge source of food not more than 20m away. Children love to play here too. Also the lower floor homes are easily reached by an agile monkey climbing the drain pipes.
Something tell me that I am not seeing this fellow for the last time.

G-7 leaders try to ease tension, vow to coordinate on virus

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States and its top economic allies pledged Monday to more closely share real-time information about the coronavirus and the availability of medical equipment and to support jobs, global trade and investment.
They also vowed to bolster science, research and technology and work to restore public confidence about the pandemic threatening the world's economy.
President Donald Trump and other members of the Group of Seven, which includes Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, Britain and France, held a teleconference to coordinate responses to the coronavirus and reduce U.S.-European tension over Trump's travel ban and reports about White House talks with a German company developing a vaccine.
"We are mobilizing the full range of instruments, including monetary and fiscal measures, as well as targeted actions, to support immediately and as much as necessary the workers, companies and sectors most affected," they said in a statement.
Trump has had an on-again, off-again relationship with top U.S. allies, but his top economic adviser Larry Kudlow said there was a high degree of cooperation on display during the teleconference.
"They're not always so agreeable, but they are today," Kudlow told reporters at the White House. "It's a wonder to see."
But the leaders also addressed a controversy involving German company CureVac that rattled top German officials, including Economy Minister Peter Altmaier, who said "Germany is not for sale."
On Sunday, Germany's Welt am Sonntag newspaper, citing unidentified German government sources, reported that the former head of CureVac joined Trump's March meeting with pharmaceutical managers. The report said Trump apparently offered the German firm a large amount of funding to secure its work for the U.S.
The company, which is based in Tuebingen, Germany, and has a site in Boston, on Monday denied reports that the Trump administration was angling to acquire it. In a tweet Monday, the company tweeted: "CureVac has not received from the U.S. government or related entities an offer before, during and since the task force meeting in the White House."
Shortly after the teleconference, the European Union announced it was providing $89.4 million (80 million euros) of financial support to CureVac to scale up development and production of a vaccine against the coronavirus.
"We are determined to provide CureVac with the financing it needs to quickly scale up development and production of a vaccine against the coronavirus," Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in a statement. "I am proud that we have leading companies like CureVac in the EU. Their home is here. But their vaccines will benefit everyone, in Europe and beyond."
French President Emmanuel Macron considers that many unilateral decisions taken by countries across the globe are counterproductive in fighting the outbreak. He has sought to mediate tensions that flared last week when the U.S. imposed a travel ban on European countries without consulting them.
"We will coordinate research efforts on a vaccine and treatments, and work on economic and financial response," Macron tweeted.
Associated Press writers Lorne Cook in Brussels, David Rising in Berlin and Sylvia Corbet in Paris contributed to this report.


Snohomish County is one of nearly 20,000 communities across the United States that participate in the National Flood Insurance Program. This program requires the county to adopt and enforce floodplain management ordinances and development regulations to reduce future flood damage. In return, the National Flood Insurance Program makes federally-supported flood insurance available to homeowners, renters, and business owners in Snohomish County's flood hazard areas.
The basic premise of this program is that it is safer and less costly to minimize flood damage through appropriate development codes in flood hazard areas, and to insure against future flood damage instead of relying on more costly disaster-relief assistance after a flood event.
This approach has proven both sensible and cost-effective. The cost of flood damage nationwide has been reduced by nearly $1 billion a year through communities implementing sound floodplain management requirements and property owners purchasing flood insurance. Buildings constructed in compliance with National Flood Insurance Program building standards experience almost 80% less damage annually than noncompliant buildings. Every $3 paid in flood insurance claims saves $1 in disaster assistance payments.
This guide is intended as a quick reference to help farm operators know when flood hazard permits may be needed. Because every property and situation is different, more information may be required before an answer can be given. Federal regulations may also apply. Please call Planning and Development Services at 425-388-3311 to have your questions answered.
You can gain some basic information by reading Planning and Development Service's Flood Hazard Areas Bulletin Number 42 (PDF).
Check the Regulatory Boundary Maps for Agriculture to see if your property is in a designated Flood Hazard area.
Read about the designated Flood Hazard Area classifications (PDF), matching your property's classification identified in the map to information provided on that classification.
Then, click on the regulatory report feature within the Regulatory Boundary Maps for Agriculture to locate the allowable uses in flood hazard areas (PDF). Check this list to see if your proposed activity is identified.
If your activity occurs within a designated Flood Hazard Area (See Flood Hazard Areas map) and the activity involves either raising or lowering the elevation of any ground within the floodplain.
If it involves building a structure or anything else that could obstruct floodwater flow.
No activities, including agriculture, have permit exemptions in Flood Hazard Areas.
Next steps if a permit is needed. If your activity occurs outside the floodplain (See Flood Hazard Areas map).
If it is within a Flood Hazard Area, the activity occurs on ground that is at least one-foot above the 100-year base flood elevation.
For further information on the county's work in flood management, please see the Public Works Surface Water Management Division section.

What Is Drake's Net Worth?
Jennifer Stinnett Nov 30, 2016
Drake's net worth is an estimated $60 million as of May 2016. The Canadian actor-turned-rapper's annual earnings have risen, going from a reported $10 million in 2010 to $39.5 million in 2015. Today, he's one of the wealthiest hip-hop artists. Here's a look at his assets and some of his main sources of income.
Check out our investment calculator.
Breaking Down Drake's Earnings
Drake wanted to make $250 million by the time he turned 29. While he didn't quite meet his goal, he still managed to build serious wealth. So far he's earned roughly $150 million.
Drake's had an income in one way or another since he was a teenager. He began his career as an actor going by his legal name, Aubrey Graham. He took on his first role at age 15 acting in an episode of Canadian crime TV series "Blue Murder."
He took on several more TV series roles in the early 2000s, acting in shows like "Being Erica," "Sophie" and "Best Friend's Date," before landing his best-known TV role as Jimmy Brooks in 145 episodes of "Degrassi: The Next Generation." In recent years he's also voiced a character in "Ice Age: Continental Drift" and played a role in "Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues."
Drake used his "Degrassi" earnings to bankroll the beginnings of his music career. The artist released his first mixtape, "Room for Improvement," in February 2006. Over the next few months he received attention and support from artists like Kanye West, Jay Z and Lil Wayne as his music career steadily grew.
Drake's music career really ignited when he signed a $2 million-dollar deal with Young Money Records in June 2009. By July 2009, Drake's tracks "Best I Ever Had" and "Every Girl" were topping charts on the Billboard Hot 100's Top 10.
Drake's made Forbes' Hip-Hop Cash Kings list every year since then with annual earnings of $10 million, $11 million, $20.5 million, $10.5 million, $33 million and $39.5 million respectively, over the last six years.
So how does Drake make so much money? Much of his earnings come from multi-platinum records and concerts. Graham's 2012 Club Paradise tour grossed a whopping $42 million and he made an estimated $50 million in touring last year. His most recent Summer Sixteen tour brought in nearly $1 million on its first night.
Drake's newest album, "Views," was the first to reach triple platinum status in 2016. One of his other recent albums, "If You're Reading This It's Too Late," went platinum before its physical release in 2015.

Endorsements are another source of income for Drake. Over the years, he's made bank by launching deals with Kodak, Nike, Sprite, Apple Music and the Toronto Raptors. The artist spoke at Apple's 2015 Worldwide Developers Conference as the company unveiled Apple Music. That same summer, Apple offered Drake $19 million to be a guest DJ on iTunes Radio.
Drake also endorses his own Virginia Black Whiskey, which he created in collaboration with spirits veteran Brent Hocking. Hocking has made deals with other artists in the past including Diddy, who purchased his DeLeon Tequila brand.
Drake's Other Assets
Drake owns a home in Hidden Hills, California that he bought in 2012 for $7.7 million. Originally listed for $27 million in 2009, the 12,500 square foot mansion has a large pool with a grotto, a basketball court and a movie theater. The artist also bought the house next door for $2.85 million.
If Drake isn't home enjoying his estate, he might be cruising around in one of his luxurious vehicles. Some of the cars that he's owned include two Bentleys, a Lamborghini Gallardo, a Mercedes Maybach Pullman and a Bugatti Veyron.

There's no doubt that Drake is wealthy. The rapper has profited from album sales, endorsements and performances. We'll just have to wait and see how his wealth may increase or change in the coming years.
