The R1500 is the latest incarnation of the successful S1506 and S1508 models. Few people know that the power block with six or eight outlets was the Pointe product sold in the largest quantity (the last digit in the model number refers to the number of outlet sockets).
In Hungary, a rave newspaper review generated significant customer interest. In Serbia, local high-end shows featured a large number of these Pointe products in various exhibitors' systems, and this is how they became famous.
The R1500 power blocks are not ordinary blocks from the corner hardware store. They sport a metal-oxide varistor that keeps the connected devices safe from voltage shock. A lightning hitting in the wrong place, and the R1500 already served its price.
A dual color red/green led shows the correct phase of the connectors, eliminating the need to use a voltage pen to determine where the phase is when replacing a device.
But the most important feature for an audiophile application is the sonic benefits this device has over ordinary "hardware store" units. The sturdy mechanical construction, the high-quality, dust- and corrosion free sockets with extended grip, and the audiophile internal wiring make the R 1500 simply characteristically different.
The power block does not have an integrated lead cable. Instead, it sports a high-quality IEC-standard socket enabling you to choose your own mains cable.

I'm not sure, if "Allow other extensions to use OutputPage before outputPage generates script and style tags." still fits the purpose of the hook correctly. The comment in the file says "Allow modifications in mobile only mode". Maybe we should usage something like that, which shows, that the hook is only called in "mobile mode"?

Q: Sort an output (an array) in perl (I am looking for a better solution in Perl for this problem).
Here is the abstract of the goal: I have a file output.txt, it contains Unexpected exception : which is followed by different exceptions... For instance, it looks like
...
Unexpected exception : exception1
...
Unexpected exception : exception2
...

Here is a Perl script which summarizes output.txt by listing what exceptions are raised and their number of occurrence:
perl -lne '$a{$2}++ if (/^(Unexpected exception) : (.*?)\s*$/); END { for $i (keys %a) { print "   ", $i, " ", $a{$i} } }' $1

The result looks like:
exception2 : 15
exception3 : 7
exception1 : 9
...

Now I would like to improve this script, so that the exceptions could be listed in an alphabetical order:
exception1 : 9
exception2 : 15
exception3 : 7
...

Does anyone know how to change this script to achieve this goal?
Additionally, I may want to list the exceptions in a decreasing order of the occurrence:
exception15 : 20
exception2 : 15
exception1 : 9
exception3 : 7
...

Does anyone know to do it?

A: Sort by exception name
perl -lne '$a{$2}++ if (/^(Unexpected exception) : (.*?)\s*$/); END { for $i (sort keys %a) { print "   ", $i, " ", $a{$i} } }' $1

Sort by occurances
perl -lne '$keys{$2}++ if (/^(Unexpected exception) : (.*?)\s*$/); END { for $i (sort { $keys{$b} <=> $keys{$a} } keys %keys) { print "   ", $i, " ", $keys{$i} } }' $1

A: I hope this script-version is more readable:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

my %exceptions;

while (<DATA>) {
    chomp;
    $exceptions{$1}++ if (m/^Unexpected exception : (.*?)\s*$/);
}

print "Sorted by exception name:\n";
foreach my $exc (sort keys %exceptions) {
    print "$exc : $exceptions{$exc}\n";
}

print "Sorted by exception count:\n";
foreach my $exc (sort { $exceptions{$b} <=> $exceptions{$a} } keys %exceptions) {
    print "$exc : $exceptions{$exc}\n";
}

__DATA__
Unexpected exception : exception1
Unexpected exception : exception2
Unexpected exception : exception2

A: Perl/sort/uniq solution. Strip the leading text, sort, then count:
perl -pe 's/Unexpected exception : //' input.txt | sort | uniq -c

To sort by number of occurrences, add an extra sort -g:
perl -pe 's/Unexpected exception : //' input.txt | sort | uniq -c | sort -g

What Causes Eczema and How it Can be Treated?
The chronic skin condition which is caused generally by the inflammation is known as Eczema or dermatitis. There are many forms of dermatitis or eczema but Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common eczema type which is seen worldwide.
It is one of the stressful conditions which are likely to cause frustration. One feels embarrassed in social gatherings and this eczema can shake ones confidence level. Treatment of eczema is easy once we know the exact causes of it. Is eczema contagious is one of a key concern of people and the simple answer to this is, it is due to the skin conditions and immune response and it is not contagious but a great deal of care is needed to keep your skin free of such problems.
1 What causes eczema and how many people suffer from it?
What causes eczema and how many people suffer from it?
For many people, eczema is a chronic problem and as per research it affects 35 million Americans including 12-20 % of children and 1-3% of adults. What causes eczema is not completely known till date but it is considered to be one of the immune responses of the skin which for some reason is working overactive. Moreover eczema is generally seen in the families which have some asthmatic history. Symptoms of eczema are acne breakouts on the skin followed by rash and itch. What causes eczema in babies? The hormonal changes sometimes at puberty cause the acne breakouts.
Is eczema curable? It is considered that eczema is also related to our dietary habits like those who consume too many oily foods are more prone to eczemas. You can use some lotions and moisturizers which aid the process of healing and minimize the discomfort.
Here are few Natural remedies for eczema and you can try them after consulting dermatologist if you are looking out for how to get rid of eczema?
Coconut oil is considered as an ideal moisturizer and skin tonic. For eczema you can also apply it on skin but don't forget to consult dermatologist to find out if you have any intolerance or allergy against it. When applied on the skin, it helps to ease the pain and itching which is caused by eczema.
Sea spray is one of the effective Natural remedies for eczema. For the wet and oozing type of eczema it works ideally. All you need is some homemade salt and a spray of magnesium. The spray is equally effective as beach for the overall skin health and for those who do not live near beaches can make use of this spray.
Fermented cod liver oil is a rich source of healthy fats for a body. It also helps to reduce inflammation in the body and skin. The mixture of fermented cod liver oil along with butter oil containing high vitamins is great health and skin supplement. It is considered as one of the Natural remedies for eczema.
Bath of magnesia is helpful too. Magnesium bath helps in the detoxification and helps in the healing process of skin. You can add Epsom salt or the flakes of magnesium in the few tablespoons of Himalayan salt to the bath for better results. If not bath, you can even use magnesium oil as well.
The use of probiotics is helpful, the use of probiotics make a visible difference as far as skin health is concerned. We actually miss some important probiotics in our modern day diet. There are some bacteria which are essential for our health; the food which is rich in probiotics can be very helpful for the skin and eczema treatment.
Food rich in gelatin is an ideal healing diet, the bone broth especially contain high gelatin in it and can be helpful in the treatment of eczema.
For eczema home recipes apple cider vinegar is the key. You can collect it in a bowl and apply it on the skin with eczema, the citrate in it will kill the germs and vitamin A helps to nourish the skin.
There are a lot of creams, lotions as well as ointments for the treatment of eczema. All moisturizers are not created equal and there are a lot of differences in their composition. The main purpose however is the same and that is to keep the skin hydrated and to keep control of the rash.
Moisturizers, creams and lotions are three general categories of skin care regimes available in the market. Moisturizers are oil based and are best in the treatment of eczema. For the application make sure your hands are thoroughly washed and massage it gently on the skin surface.
There are some other eczema ointments for the treatment of eczema, best ointments for eczema are those which contain high oil content and hence some people prefer to apply them at night so that they stay on the skin overnight and can be absorbed by the skin thoroughly. How to get rid of eczema overnight? Apply some good and moisture rich ointment or moisturizer though the problem cannot be resolved overnight. Best eczema cream over the counter is rich in multivitamins and some essential oils.
Creams are second to ointments; they are different from creams on the basis of quantity of oil added in them. Best eczema creams help to seal the moisture. For the people with oily skin, the creams are best as they are less in oil and less greasy. Don't forget to consult dermatologist before applying anything on the skin as there is always a risk of allergy. Eczema cream that works carries least chemical ingredients. The preservatives sometimes which are added in the moisturizers, creams or ointments cause inflammation of the skin when applied. Best eczema creams are the ones which are high in oil and lesser in chemical preservatives. Best eczema cream for babies is the one which is free from steroids.
Lotions contain least oil in them and are generally water based. Best lotions for eczema are generally those which contain more hydrated formulas and do not result in the greasy skin. The people with oily skin can apply lotions in place of creams or ointments for better results. Best lotions for eczema are the ones which have more water content in it to keep the skin nourished and hydrated. How to cure eczema fast? Consult dermatologist and take care of your skin everyday with the prescription eczema cream suggested by the doctor. Also keep in mind that eczema steroid creams are only suggested after dermatologist's prescription.
Skin eczema is one of the key concerns of modern day living, what causes eczema is still to be discovered but it is thought that hyperactive immune system causes inflammation that results in eczema. How to get rid of eczema fast? Make use of natural ingredients for skin protection and consult dermatologist if the problem is getting severe.

Are you a fan of creative and clever homemade Valentines? If so, you (and your kids!) will love this cute and inexpensive idea. I picked up Pop Rocks candy from my local dollar store (3 packs for $1) and have made you a free cute printable to attach and use for Valentine's Day!
First, print out these FREE Pop Rocks Valentine Cards. Then have your child write their name on the front, cut them out, and attach with tape to the top of the candy. This cute striped Washi tape is also from the dollar store!
Stay tuned for even more easy and fun Valentine's Day ideas like these coming up in the next month!
This is really cute! Wheat would be really cool would be a few Mardi Gras themed ideas as well!
I'm looking forward to your non food ideas. Also any party game ideas would be great. I'm coordinating a fourth grade party and would love to find something that we haven't done before. Thanks for all your awesome posts!
I'm trying to print the cards and it will not load.. anyone else having this problem?
It loads fine on our end. Sorry you are having trouble!
Here here – can't send in any food items to the schools anymore!
I snagged Valentines Day stuff on clearance last year so I'm doing goody bags with a mini pack of crayons, a mini notebook and a mini Play-doh with a card that says "crayons are yellow, red and blue…preschool is more fun because of you" (totally copied from a blog, I'm not that creative). Play-doh contains gluten though so stickers may be better if there are a lot of food issues at your school.
A few years ago I purchase a large bag, maybe 100, of punch balls. They have come in really handy for Valentines, Christmas, and even Halloween when we ran out of candy. All the kids loved them. Also, my kids have gotten crazy straws and crazy balloon shapes that they have also enjoyed. The only problem is if the balloons are seen as a choking hazard.
Thoughts on where to get these for cheap? Even on Amazon they are too expensive to do this for an entire classroom.
Party City has them for pretty cheap.
Yup. I was wondering how many others got their Valentines last year. I found super cute activity Valentines (airplanes, puzzles) at Target last year for .30!
Where did you get the cute mailbox at?
Just a heads up – other than food restrictions as one person mentioned above (Ex: no candy due to kids having peanut allergies), some schools/districts ban Pop Rocks due to risks to the kids. They don't want to be liable if it causes a problem (if the kid eats it in class). The same goes for lollipops (choking hazard). So check with your school and/or teacher before you buy this or any other candy, you might be wasting your money.
China. No quality control there. Besides…didn't kids get enough junk over holiday break?!
Lina – I am really loving your posts since they started focusing more on re purposing, organizing, etc, more coupon-related topics. They are awesome!
It's just a little happy – I wouldn't mind if my kid received junk food/candy 🙂 Looks cute and fun. Ofcourse, I would understand if there are food restrictions in the class. I will be using cards I got on clearance last year, but would love to do this idea also!!!
So ladies, I need a spot of help. =D One of our male friends recently went through a pretty bad breakup, and a bunch of us girls have decided to send him stuff for Valentine's Day.The rest of the girls will be handing him things on 14th but since I am on the West coast, I would like to mail him goodies, but without the billing info/bill. Any inexpensive ideas? I was thinking chocolates/candies, considering he likes non Asian ones (pocky, choco pie etc..).
whoops I meant "the" Asian goodies, not "non".
Lina ~ these are precious and so creative! Love the printable! Would be cute with a rock candy stick too. Thanks for sharing!
I have some jars of bubbles that I was going to label "You blow me away, Valentine" and give those to my daughters pre-k class. I bought the bottles at the end of summer on sale. I usually stick some in treat bags as a candy alternative.
Another non-food item is a homemade crayon in the shape of a heart, or other fun shapes. Take your old broken crayons, break them and mix them up in cute shaped metal trays (try Michaels or Target) melt them in the over and attach a cute cut-out card on card stock. The kids love to write notes with and color.
Thank you so much! I used these for my son's preschool Valentine's. They are so cute!
Hi there! I'm looking into this!
***Try right clicking on link and press "open in new window" -That worked for me just now.
Also maybe try in Firefox browser. It's working there!

Japanese Handbooks Other places Performance Themes My Performances My Repertoire 首頁
The Guqin in Japan
Melodies from Qin Handbooks in Japan 2 古琴在日本 1
A qin at the Shosoin3
Most "Japanese" music instruments actually came there from elsewhere,4 but until Western music arrived in Japan5 the Japanese tendency was quickly to create a uniquely Japanese repertoire for those instruments.6 The exception to this seems to have been the qin and its music. Although there are Japanese melodies for qin, most qin players in Japan play a largely or exclusively Chinese repertoire.7 This was also largely true during the Edo period (1603-1868), or at least largely the intention; during that time there was qin music in Japanese music idiom, (see below) but it apparently never really caught on.
The qin (now usually called guqin) was brought to Japan over 1,000 years ago, as was the other important Chinese long zither, the zheng (or guzheng).8 Important qin music and documents have been preserved in Japan since the Tang dynasty. However, whereas the zheng became exceedingly popular in Japan (where it is called a koto and its music was localized), evidence suggest that the qin was actually played there very little prior to the arrival in Japan of Jiang Xingchou (Shin'etsu), in 1677.9 Shin'etsu taught qin to many students, thereby beginning the first documented tradition of qin play in Japan.
A program on this theme could thus focus on the following aspects of qin music in Japan.10
Idiomatically Chinese qin music preserved in Japanese handbooks.
These are mostly short qin songs. Some are copies or adaptations of melodies played in China, including a few longer melodies such as Gao Shan, Yu Qiao Wenda, and Shin'Etsu's own teacher's Li Yun Chun Si. For various possibilities, see Guqin Handbooks Published in Japan.
Idiomatically Japanese qin music preserved in Japanese handbooks.
Although some of the melodies listed under Japanese Handbooks in Qinqu Jicheng and "Correct Toko Kinpu" seem to have been created in Japan (for example, Fusang melodies), it is not clear which (if any) can be considered idiomatically Japanese (e.g., using Japanese rather than Chinese scales or modes).11
Chinese qin melodies known or likely to have been played in Japan.
The most likely sources for such melodies would be the handbooks known to have been in Japan during the Edo period.12 Most relevant to the early Edo period would probably be Songxianguan Qinpu (1614) and Qinxue Xinsheng (1664). There is evidence that Shin-Etsu actually brought at least six handbooks to Japan (one of them being the handbook of his teacher) and Van Gulik argues that he probably taught his advanced students from them.13 On the other hand, all the versions of melodies from these handbooks that can be found in Japanese publications were noticeably altered.
A liberal interpretation of this category would allow inclusion of the qin setting made around that time, quite likely also in Hangzhou, for the Heart Sutra; this can easily be sung using the common Sino-Japanese pronunciation (shown here).
Chinese qin melodies preserved in Japanese libraries or museums.
The most famous example of this is You Lan.
Recent qin compositions with a Japan connection
There is at least one modern composition for qin and Japanese instruments.
Another possibility is to have a program involving the guqin and a Japanese music instrument. Here perhaps the most natural choice for the Japanese instrument would be the shakuhachi end blown flute. In China the instrument today most commonly paired with the qin is another end blown flute, the xiao. And the shakuhachi, like the qin, is best known as an instrument of contemplation.14
In addition, the Japanese ichigenkin one-string qin, according to tradition, has its musical and aesthetic roots in the Chinese guqin. In China there are some stories and illustrations regarding a one string qin, and one handbook published in 1618 actually has a few melodies. However, the modern repertoire of the ichigenkin seems more closely related to that of the samisen, a three-stringed banjo-like instrument.15
1. 古琴在日本 (The Guqin in Japan); image at right from the entry in ZWDCD a zheng (koto); the player would sit on the near side
There can be confusion in Japan about the character for qin (in Japanese "琴 kin" but sometimes [incorrectly] "koto") vs. the character for zheng (in Japanese "箏 sō" or "koto", depending on the context). This confusion can be found in ancient documents as well as at present.
箏 Koto
Both the qin and the koto are long zithers and thus somewhat similar in appearance. The koto traditionally had 13 strings, the qin seven. Otherwise the main difference is that the 琴 qin/kin has no frets while, as can be seen in the image at right, the 箏 zheng/koto has a movable fret or bridge under each string. For the qin/kin the player plucks the strings with the right hand while pressing down on the same string with the left hand, pressing it into the top board (入木) except when playing harmonics; on stopped sounds the pitch can be changed by sliding the left hand finger horizontally up or down the board. For the zheng/koto the player also plucks the strings with the right hand, but usually using a finger pick, and the left hand does not push the string all the way to the wood; here the pitch can be changed by moving the hand vertically, thereby tightening or loosening the string tension. Nevertheless, due perhaps to their similar overall shape plus the fact that references to qin are very common in early Chinese literature whereas zheng references are rather rare, early Japanese writings commonly used the kanji (Chinese character) for qin/kin when a zheng/koto was the actual reference. In modern times the confusion was compounded because the list of 1900 characters approved in 1947 by the Japanese government for use in newspapers, magazines and official documents did not include the character 箏 zheng/koto, but only 琴 qin/kin (with "koto" given as one of its pronunciations).
和琴 Wagon (pron, "wa-GON'); image from Malm, Japanese Music, 1959; p.43 a wagon zither; the player also seated on the near side
The guqin seems to have (or have had) no relation to an ancient Japanese instrument called the 和琴 wagon (3600.xxx), a plucked zither also called a 大和琴 yamato goto (5960.629xxx) but also sometimes incorrectly referred to as a wagoto. It had six or seven strings but also movable bridges (sometimes missing from images), making it more closely related to the koto; once again, the part of the strings to the left of the bridges are not intended to vibrate. The wagon is generally thought to be indigenous to Japan.
Japan also has some other interesting "qin" that seem to be unrelated to China's guqin, such as the "鵄尾琴 owl tail qins" depicted here and here.
2. The Guqin in Japan, main references
The main references I have consulted include:
R. H. Van Gulik, The Lore of the Chinese Lute
Stephen Addiss, The Qin in Japan
Mitchell Clark, The Art of the Qin in China and Japan
To this should be added the page on Japanese Handbooks.
3. A qin at the Shoso-In
This instrument is discussed further here.
4. Origin of Japanese music instruments
Almost all Japanese musical instruments arrived there from China, including (in addition to the koto) the 琵琶 biwa (Chinese pipa, original origin Central or West Asia), the 三味線 samisen (from the Chinese 三絃 sanxian, via Okinawa) and the 尺八 shakuhachi (from the Chinese 洞簫 dongxiao, though there was also a Chinese 尺八 chiba in Fujian province; 7803.10 gives a Tang dynasty source [唐藝,呂才傳] as its earliest reference).
5. Arrival of Western music and instruments in Japan
Early Jesuit missionaries brought Western instruments to Japan, but the widespread introduction of Western music came with the Meiji Restoration of 1866. As part of modernization Western music came to dominate schools and conservatories. Japanese traditional music, with their own hereditary schools, did not adapt well to this. Today in Japan, as in much of the world, "music" means Western music, and you have to specify "Japanese music" if you wish to refer to the local traditions.
6. Unique Japanese idiom (for qin see below)
Whereas the ancient (Chinese) physical shapes of Japanese instruments has been better preserved in Japan than in China, other than with qin music the music itself has been almost completely changed. This situation can be compared to differences between the Japanese and Chinese languages: the casual observer will note that the writing systems look very similar, and indeed the Japanese written script originated when they tried to use Chinese characters to write Japanese. However, this proved to be inadequate: linguistically the languages are totally unrelated, with Japanese having verb and noun endings than cannot be expressed by characters. For this the Japanese had to develop an alphabet (actually a syllabary); these somewhat resemble Chinese characters.
Likewise, in spite of the foreign origin of most Japanese music instruments, their music has virtually nothing in common idiomatically with that of other countries.
7. Qin repertoire in Japan: Japanese melodies?
The page Japanese Guqin Handbooks lists melodies from early handbooks written and/or published in Japan. As suggested with the program possibilities outline, these early melodies can probably be divided into three types:
Melodies brought from China
Melodies in the same style but created in Japan
Distinctively Japanese melodies for qin
As yet I am not familiar with any studies that identify the specific characteristics of melodies in the third category.
8. Arrival of qin and zheng in Japan
This is discussed to a limited extent in Van Gulik, op.cit. He mentions the fact that the word "qin" could be used as a positive expression for pretty much any instrument. One might also suspect that the fact that it was not easy to adapt the qin to a Japanese idiom was a major factor inhibiting its popularity.
9. Jiang Xingchou (Shin'etsu)
蔣興疇; 心越
10. Focus of the program
Being able to use a qin with a Japanese connection would make such a recital particularly relevant. As it is, since 2013 the best silk strings for qin have been made in Japan (with Chinese advice) by Marusen Hashimoto.
11. Idiomatically Japanese qin melodies
When the qin was introduced into Japan in the 17th century (some might say re-introduced, but there is little solid information about the qin being used in Japan prior to then, other than occasionally as part of a ritual ensemble) it was played in Japan by a class of people who consciously tried to preserve the Chinese uniqueness (here perhaps one might compare Japanese studying Confucian philosophy).
As for idiomatically Japanese qin melodies, I am not yet familiar with any studies done of this topic. Van Gulik himself (op.cit., p.232ff) divides the qin tradition in Japan into two streams: 內傳 naiden (inner tradition: direct heirs of Shin Etsu, and 外傳 geden (outer tradition: those who learned from Chinese players). There is no solid evidence of people doing significant study outsde the Shin-etsu tradition, but the person Van Gulik mentions as closest to advocating Japanese melodies for qin is 浦上玉堂 Uragami Gyokudō (1745-1820), whose handbook 玉堂藏書琴譜 Gyokudō Zōsho Kimpu included melodies such as 青柳 Aoyagi, 伊勢海 Ise-no-umi and 梅枝 Umegae that seem purely Japanese (see further).
On the other hand,in his 2008 doctoral dissertation Yang Yuanzheng argues that, although there is some evidence of people after Jiang Xingchou trying to study with other Chinese visitors to Japan during the Edo period (for example, in Nagasaki), there is no evidence that they had any substantial learning; and if they did, this was not transmitted to others.
12. Qin materials in Japan during the Edo period
Mention should be made of the seventh century tablature for You Lan preserved in Japan, though there is no evidence for it having been played there.
13. Qin materials brought to Japan by Jiang Xingchou (Toko Etsu)
Van Gulik, Lore, p.226 tells of Toko Etsu advising a student to use Songxianguan Qinpu. On 231 he gives evidence for the presence later of Qinxue Xinsheng. Today the most famous of its 14 melodies (13 of which appeared here for the first time) is #14, Wuye Wu Qiufeng. Only one of them, #4 Li Yun Chun Si, is also in a Japanese handbook.
14. Shakuhachi (尺八 chiba)
7803.10 尺八 chiba gives as its earliest musical reference the biography of Lü Cai in the Tang History (唐書,呂才傳 Tang Shu, Lü Cai). There is also a reference to Records of Qin in the Chinese historical work Comprehensive Mirror to Aid in Government (資治通鑑,秦紀 Zizhi Tongjian, 1084), but this does not seem to be connected to music. There is still a flute in Fujian province sometimes called the chiba, and this is generally said to be the flute from which the shakuhachi developed.
15. Ichigenkin (一絃琴 yixianqin; see in Wikipedia) 7 string & 1 string qin on porcelain plate from Japan (detail)
According to the current Wikipedia article, the string of the Japanese ichigenkin (or ichigen-kin) is made of silk. It adds that the Japanese originally adapted the instrument from the guqin. Such an origin is substantiated by the samples and stories of the one string qin in China. It is also interesting to note that shortly before Jiang Xingchou came to China a handbook was published with one-string qin melodies (dated 1618; see details). And as the image at right (said to be 19th century) seems to confirm, the 1-string qin (right side of image) in Japan originally had, as it had had in China, the same body as a 7-string qin (see left side of image), but was strung with only one string.
This should emphasize the original meditative nature of the ichigenkin and its connection to silk strings. And in Japan today the instrument still has these associations. However, its playing style and the sound seem more closely related to that of the samisen or biwa than to the guqin. This is in part because in Japan ichigenkin players use a pick to pluck with the right hand, and harmonic notes are very infrequent; they also use a slide to "stop" (not pressing all the way down) or slide on the string with the left hand. In addition, as with samisen, the string on the ichigenkin played in Japan today has a thin gauge as on a samisen, and likewise is often made of nylon instead of silk (there has also been some experimentation with using a metal string and an electronic pickup, but this has not become part of the mainstream).
It may be noted here that the Vietnamese dan bau monochord (see further) no longer uses either silk or nylon strings, and it almost invariably has an electronic pickup.
Modern ichigenkin
As can be seen at right, the modern ichigenkin superficially resembles the Chinese original. However, the string is now connected either to two large posts (one at either end, as at top) or, more commonly, to a large post and a very small one, crossing a bridge (as at bottom; image apparently from the Metropolitan Museum of New York). And although the top image still seems to have 13 hui (markers), from the image at right and also from other online images such as this other one from the Metropolitan Museum, it looks as though the number is different and, instead of indicating harmonic nodes, as they do on the guqin, they indicate "stopped" positions.
The Wikipedia ichigenkin article also mentions two Japanese two two-string qins that apparently developed from the ichigenkin: the the 二絃琴 nigenkin and the 八雲琴 yakumogoto (note here "koto" written as "qin").

British Prime Minister David Cameron says he is "convinced" he can mend the relationship between Britain and the EU, as pressure grows to call a referendum on UK membership.
Speaking at a Downing Street press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday, the prime minister said the EU needs to be reformed, although he expressed his support for remaining in the common market.
Merkel also said she wanted the UK to be "strong and successful" in Europe, and supported the PM's proposals to limit state benefits to EU migrants, one of his key election promises.
The two leaders held talks on EU reform and the situation in Ukraine, although events were overshadowed by Wednesday's terrorist attack in Paris.
Merkel said she wanted to seek "common solutions" to the UK's concerns over the EU.
"I do not want to hide from how I very much like having the UK in a strong and successful EU," she added.
"I want to fix the problems in Britain's relationship with the EU, which the British people can find very frustrating. I am convinced this can be done," he said.
Asked about the prime minister's plans to limit benefits to migrants, Merkel said the concern reflected a wider issue affecting all European member states.
"We will look at this, we will talk about this, not only as two countries but also with our other partners. In each and every member state there's a necessity to address this issue," she told reporters.
"We have no doubt about the principle of freedom of movement being in any way questioned, but we also have to look at abuse of that. We are looking at legislation here, we want to see how this plays out at a local level.
Tensions between Cameron and Merkel were raised last year when the chancellor berated the prime minister for advocating a cap on EU migrants. Merkel said such measures would go against the European Union's principle of free movement – one of the union's core principles.
However, the PM said such measures would only be used to address the abuse of free movement, and that he wanted to host a referendum in which Britain would choose to be in a reformed EU.
An in/out referendum on the EU is due to take place in 2017, should Cameron win a majority in Parliament in May.

About 7 years ago Beverly was leaning against her kitchen counter, with her arms crossed, disappointed about her inability to memorize Scripture and her inability to hold in her long term memory Scriptures she had recently memorized. "God", she bemoaned, "why has no one set the whole Bible to music? It is so much easier to memorize when it is set to music." Almost instantly, like one would hear in a conversation, she "heard" a voice over her right shoulder, that said, "You do it."
A few weeks later, she was at church with a guest worship leader. During the corporate worship she so enjoyed the worship. There was something different about the quality of the worship; and she sat down, after the introductory corporate worship, satisfied and wanting more. Shortly thereafter, the person making the announcements related that Kurt Coble, who was the guest worship leader, would be doing a small concert that night at the home of someone Beverly knew. She knew she wanted to go, and that evening she and her husband, Dave, went. After the concert Beverly and Kurt were talking and Beverly shared her desire to have the whole Bible set to music. Kurt echoed that he did too, and they exchanged phone numbers and began to communicate about the possibility of setting the whole Bible to music. After a short period of time, the communication waned, and nothing ever came of their hopes.
… she "heard" a voice over her right shoulder, that said, "You do it."
Around May 2018 Beverly got an email from Kurt. In it he communicated he was about to finish a project and was looking for another and wanted to know if Beverly was still interested. Was she?!!!
They began to communicate via phone and email. Beverly recalls that they were in such agreement about so many of the ideas and often when Kurt spoke about things, not knowing how Beverly felt, his words were just what she thought and believed and wanted to do. After a short season of this, they agreed to have each of their prayer groups pray about whether to move forward with the plan to reach back out to one another after 10 days. They did, and unanimously both had a go ahead to move forward.
Beverly heard Kurt mention on several occasions about Nikhil, a guy Kurt was writing music with for the Love N America project. At first Kurt did not want to mention the new project to Nikhil, because of its magnitude. Eventually they talked and in early January 2019, Nikhil Paul George, brought his ideas, talents, and commitment to the project and became one of the 3 core people to carry on.
In the Fall, 2018 Beverly was participating in a leadership program where various titles of the project were created and after more communication between Kurt, Nikhil, and herself, the title of the project, "Epic Love Story", was birthed.
Come winter of 2018-2019 the name KBN66 Productions was created for the business entity, and soon after was created as an LLC out of Nashville, TN.
So much more could be written, but the website tells more!

Must See: War Horse at the New London Theatre
In my mind, I've always considered a divide between theatre and film. I'd never truly been moved by a show, never truly experienced the full range of emotions from elation to devastation and I was okay with that because that was the arena of film. That changed when I saw War Horse.
In a word, War Horse is spectacular. Based on the novel by Michael Morpurgo, War Horse has been brought to London's New London Theatre by A Really Useful Group Theatre in association with South Africa's Handspring Puppet Company.
I enjoyed every minute of the play and it really is the best West End show I have ever seen. Let me tell you a little bit more about the story, the actors, the set design and artwork and most of all, the puppets.
War Horse is a delightful story but I obviously don't want to give too much away. It is the story of how a young hunter is captured as a foal and sold at auction to the Narracotts, a farming family. Young Albert Narracott falls in love with the foal, names him Joey and works him until he earns his trust. All too soon, the First World War breaks out and the army calls for horses for the cavalry. Despite being separated, the bond between Albert and Joey ultimately proves to overcome the distance between them and the horrors of the war. This is a story about the futility of war and drawing lines, and the transcendence of love and hope.
We were quite lucky on the evening we went to see War Horse because John Trindle was playing Albert Narracott (he usually plays Albert's cousin, Billy). John did a really good job and he was absolutely endearing as the wide-eyed and optimistic Albert. I adored Rachel Sanders in her role as Rose Narracott, Albert's mother. She was hilarious and made a great pair with Steve Nicolson who played Albert's father, Ted.
My favourite actor was Richard Cant who played the conflicted German soldier Friedrich Müller. He gave a truly impeccable performance and managed somehow to win the sympathy of the audience despite being one of the enemy.
The Set and the Artwork
The War Horse set is quite simple but designer Rae Smith made use of exquisite artwork to convey the torn and devastated landscapes of war time France. Fragments of film, torn sketches from a notebook and other images were projected onto a screen and certainly made a dark and convincing backdrop for the play. When considered alongside the puppets, which I shall discuss next, it is no surprise that I found myself so emerged in the play.
The Puppets
I was impressed when I saw photos of the puppets before the show and after reading up about the Handspring Puppet Company, I knew we were in for a real treat. What I didn't expect was to be so taken by these realistic and expressive puppets that I was moved to tears in the heart wrenching scenes towards the end of the play. I was so engrossed that I forgot for a moment that these were puppets, not real horses.
Hmmm. I don't think I've quite conveyed the depth of my emotions there. Let's just say there was a scene involving barbed wire that had me beating my chest and taking deep gulps of air, hoping against hope for an impossible outcome. It was agonising and in that moment, it did not feel like it was a mere puppet up there on the stage.
The puppets are life size and not only are we treated to both foals and full grown horses in the play, but there are also a fabulous goose, birds and crows. While the smaller animals require just one puppeteer, the horses require at least three people working behind the scenes but there were times when I barely noticed the puppeteers. These are not static puppets, that is for sure, and no detail is ignored. Ears flick in annoyance, the horse shifts weight from one back leg to the other while standing still, and they use their full momentum to rear up in anger.
War Horse is absolutely impressive in every way and I simply can't fault it. I feel like I've been disappointed so many times in London theatres (I see a lot more than I review!) but this is one play that I would be happy to see again and again.

In the past I would have always considered myself a fan of 17th century history. This era dominated my reading and lecturing of course, but it also was important for changing world views on monarchy, religious freedom, migration, science etc etc.
Since starting the blog in 2008, however, I am now convinced that the Edwardian-WW1 era had the most important and interesting influence on modernity. Think of the shrines and memorials built, the paintings exhibited, the medicine discovered and even the recent tv programmes that have thrived.
The War Horse is definitely part of that fascination!

That does sound like a spectacular show – I wish I could jump on a plane and go and see it, but I can't. I'll have to see if it plays close by someday. That was a great review.

I'm too much of a pathetic Brit to brave this - I will be a sobbing mess I know. Cannot bear watching traumatic things happen to animals, even if they're in puppet form! You're a brave woman...

I saw the theater production in New York last year and loved it! After a few minutes you totally suspend disbelief and see the horse as real, its movements are so lifelike. I have not seen the movie because I don't want to be disappointed.
Emm in London 10 February 2013 at 21:07
Sorry for the late reply friends! I'm just catching up after a particularly crazy January!
@ Hels: growing up in the UK, I grew up in a world where the world wars were everything. My family's neighbourhoods were decimated, my great grandfather's brother and my own grandfather were severely injured and, of course, there were many lost. I think that is why your blog fascinates me because it opens up a whole other era of history for me!
@ Vagabonde: it is a great show. Do give it a try if you ever have the chance!
@Accidental Londoner: well, you will cry, that's for sure but if you could possibly ever generate enough courage, it will be absolutely worth it!
@Clueless in Boston: that is absolutely it! You completely suspend disbelief! It's amazing.

Garmentory Is Now Your Online Destination for Indie Boutiques and Emerging Designers
The e-commerce platform has grown exponentially since its launch in 2014.
Maria Bobila
Photo: Garmentory
Last fall, I was in search of a very specific Opening Ceremony "Athena" crossbody bag. It had to be leather (not suede, which a number of "Athena" versions are made from), it had to be black and, most importantly, the hand-shaped snap-button clasp had to be matte black (not silver, another common style detail). The bag is readily available across a slew of retailers, but the version I wanted was so outdated that the chances of finding it in stock were very slim. By a rare stroke of luck, I came across the e-commerce site Garmentory, which was offering the exact bag from a small boutique in Toronto. I immediately snapped it up and in about a week, it arrived at my New York City apartment, matte black hand clasp and all.
This is a story I tell Garmentory co-founder Adele Tetangco in person during her visit from Vancouver, and it's similar to what she's heard time and time again from multiple people. "To have a place like Garmentory that really puts everything together in a one-stop-shop for you, people are able to find things that they've been looking for or couldn't find previously," she says.
The initial idea for Garmentory came to Tetangco back in 2013. After nearly a decade of working in the fashion industry, she was approached by Sunil Gowda — whose work experience involves Zillow, Expedia and Microsoft — and together, they founded and launched Garmentory a year later. The site sets itself apart among online competitors with the ability for shoppers to "Make An Offer" to the independently owned boutiques featured on the site.
"When it's the end of the season and items go on sale, whatever doesn't sell usually gets packaged up and put in the back of the store and doesn't come out until sale season again," explains Tetangco. "They're sitting on this dead stock that they could be making money off of, so there was an opportunity there."
The on-sale items are listed on Garmentory with its full price rather than its current markdown. Customers can then offer a price and the boutiques can either accept, reject or counter that offer. Not only was the concept a success when it launched, but Garmentory was also providing a global audience for these businesses, which are generally small and lacking the technological resources to expand online, while clearing out inventory and supplying shipping and return assets. By 2015, Tetangco and Gowda had decided to give their stores the opportunity to sell full-price, in-season apparel, accessories and lifestyle items as well.
"The conversions from 'Make An Offer' were tricky because if a store didn't accept an offer, then there wasn't a conversion. And selling full-price was a way to get more inventory on the site because the sale items were so limited," said Tetangco. Because of Gowda's tech experience, it was easy to pull and integrate an entire store's stock onto Garmentory's site. As a result, there was more of a selection for customers to choose from, while stores and designers had more of an opportunity to make a profit. From that business decision alone, "everything just took off," according to Tetangco.
Garmentory's partnerships have grown from 25 to more than 400 small boutiques and young designers, spanning all over the world from North America to Russia, Tel Aviv and Dubai. "I'm at this point where when I go to a trade show, I'm not even sourcing new brands because the brands and stores are coming to us," says Tetangco. "We're just curating and picking who's coming on the site because they're finding us. It's really cool." On the consumer end, traffic to the site has skyrocketed by 3,000 percent and Garmentory's customer base has expanded by 300 percent year over year.
"Our growth is a true testament for the need for a place like Garmentory," says Tetangco. "Even the fact that we got funding for something like this goes to show that this is a segment that is very underserved and we're able to give it a voice, succeed at it and do it really well. I have stores tell me that we saved their business."
With a $1.3 million seed fund from November 2015 and another $2 million of funding at the end of last year, Tetangco has been able to increase her staff from two full-time members to 16, expanding the development team and adding an art director between offices in Vancouver and Seattle. Garmentory's customer base is currently 80 percent women between the ages of 25 and 44 years old; Tetangco recently hired a a men's director to grow the site's menswear department (which just launched in January) and its male audience.
Oftentimes Garmentory is compared to online marketplace Farfetch but with a younger, more minimalist-leaning audience. Though the Garmentory customer's average income is $75K, the site still serves as an accessible entry point for millennial and Gen-Z shoppers who thrive on discovery and unique, cool purchases. Farfetch, on the other hand, has customers spending an average of $650 per online order. "[Our customers] are still luxury," says Tetangco of the comparison. "We are very supportive of our community — not that Farfetch isn't — but this is just the way we approach the business. We have marketing initiatives that are inclusive and community-driven."
It's a strategic sweet spot for Garmentory, and, moving forward, the company plans to tap into its community of influencers who regularly shop on the site, which includes Fashionista favorite Reese Blutstein (@double3xposure), as well as Sissy Sainte-Marie, who serves as Garmentory's fashion editor at large, penning a monthly column called "Sissy Says." On a six-month basis, the site rotates through a program of ambassadors, such as Lee Vosburgh, Melissa Sonico, Kirstyn König, Kaitlynn Lucas and Angela Deviatova.
Influencers are indeed a plus, but Garmentory will always champion its small businesses and designers first — as well as foster each of their distinctly unique point of views. "The segment is not driven by trends, it's very much driven by culture," says Tetangco. "I really believe in power of numbers, so by combining everybody — stores, designers, brands — and putting them together in one space, their voice is just that much louder."
This story has been updated from its original version regarding Gowda's work experience and Garmentory's funding.

Often times, breaking up seems like the only choice when we strike a tough patch in a relationship. When we are feeling annoyed, threatening a break-up is not unusual and when it is followed through, we may realize what a massive error it was. Studying from my previous errors, I would by no means use breaking up as a solution to a problem in a partnership. It works out so much better if you exhaust all feasible choices (speaking, partners therapy, and so on.) prior to calling it quits.
A worry at this point is that if you consider great care of your self then your partner might leave you. This leaving could be via silence, hostility, discovering someone else, or physically leaving entirely. The good news is that this rarely occurs in a serious way. Generally, your companion will attempt ingenious ways to trick you back again into the previous behaviors. And, you will drop for it numerous times.
The "right" individual indicates the Right person for you. And it is crucial that you know that they are the correct individual for you ONLY if you also are the right person for them.
Marriage is much more than just two individuals residing together and getting their personal requirements satisfied, it's two people who function with each other for the good of the partnership. If there is only two people combating for themselves in the relationship then perhaps divorce is for you. Or maybe you need to take it down a level; consider living aside and giving every other some area, and patching up the issues in between you.
If you do not want your children becoming elevated by parents that are divorced, then you might want to believe about trying to fix the marriage. It's worth a shot anyway because if art thérapie does not function you can always leave each other later on on.
If an additional says that their objective is to total the marathon race and they really total it then they had been a success. They were effective at finishing their objective.
First, look to your self. Are you the jealous type? Is this jealousy "dance" a component of your relationship, where 1 accuses and the other denies? If so, ask your self what you are reaching by performing this, and what does your partner achieve from his or her provocative behavior? Some couples battle, or flirt, because it provides some spice to the relationship; and making up can feel so good! But this is taking part in with hearth, strolling near to the edge for the thrill of it. Ask yourself, "Is this by some means component of the rhythm of our partnership?", exactly where infidelity is suspected – or actually dedicated – only to be fixed by tears and promises that it will never happen once more. Find a better, more healthy way to get these thrills; your partner and your relationship will value it.
This article is only for individuals that are serious about adore and relationship. All the sport players and people that just want to use the institution of marriage to satisfy your ulterior motives. I have nothing to say to you at all other than. I want you the worst. To the rest. the sincere people, good luck! But instead you're searching for accurate adore or just want to have enjoyable there is really nothing like utilizing chat rooms to discover precisely the type individual that is perfectly suited for you. and most individuals are just missing out on the opportunities right here because no one has at any time shown them how to use chat rooms to find your true adore on-line.

Prioritizing stories or features is hard and it gets much harder when there are conflicting opinions. Especially when someone becomes personally attached to them. What we need is for everyone to put aside their personal preferences for the needs of the customer and business.
I've learned to manage this from a pretty unlikely source. I grew up inside the Washington Beltway so it was kind of required that I thought about going to law school so I took constitutional law in college as an experiment. It was very interesting and makes me feel like a better citizen but there was no way after that I was going to choose the law as a career.
Appellate judges (who, if you care, decide questions of law and not of fact) use tests to make reasoned decisions on politically and emotionally charged issues. A test usually requires 2-4 things and if you don't have them, your case is denied.
Recently my team was working with a client who needed to get new features to market during a critical part of the sales cycle with limited dollars. The client had more on his "must" list then could be done.
We started by creating a list of business objectives and pressure tested them until we got to three objectives we believed would really create impact in this quarter and the next. It's important to set the business objectives before you start to discuss features so the objectives aren't influenced by the features/stories.
To the left of this we put each feature he wanted on on a Post-it® Notes.
To the right we marked out the sprints until the critical release dates to impact the selling and on-boarding cycle. I did this to make it easy for me to pick up a feature, guide the clients evaluation of it against the business objectives and force prioritization.
We cheered, out loud. It was great to see his mindset change and to know we gave him a great tool to use.
Previous story My favorite question: What does that mean to you?


Tropical Storm Sandy is expected to intensify to hurricane strength as it moves toward Jamaica, eastern Cuba, Haiti and the Bahamas by Wednesday and Thursday. But it's what could happen after that that has some weather forecasters pondering some rather bizarre scenarios — think if a hurricane and nor'easter mated, possibly spawning a very rare and powerful hybrid storm, slamming into the Boston-to-Washington corridor early next week, with rain, inland snow, damaging winds, and potential storm surge flooding.
An ominous storm scenario, showing a powerful storm located just south of New England on Halloween, as simulated by the ECMWF computer model.
Several computer model runs have shown a slingshot scenario, in which Tropical Storm (or hurricane) Sandy initially moves out to sea east of North Carolina, but is captured by the jet stream and flung northwestward into the Mid-Atlantic or Northeast. Other models show the storm being drawn northeastward, out to sea, northeast of the Carolinas. More model simulations have lent credence to the out to sea solution on Tuesday morning, but the forecast is still very much an open question.
A key issue that weather forecasters are wrestling with is how Sandy will interact with a deep dip in the jet stream that will be transporting much colder air into the Midwest and East during the last few days of October. Another major player in the forecast will be a blocking dome of high pressure near Greenland, which could stymie Sandy's northeast motion and deflect it on a more northwesterly course, into the Northeast.
On Monday, the Hydrometeorological Prediction Center, which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), said that deciphering the interaction between these weather systems at this point "is dicey at best." (That may even be an understatement.) On Sunday, the same center described the potential impacts from a major Northeast storm as "impressive." The center's current forecasts keep Sandy off the coast through Tuesday, although it could be drawn towards land earlier than that.
October is known for its weird, powerful storms, such as "The Perfect Storm" in 1991, which also involved energy from a tropical weather system, and "Snowtober," which buried the Northeast under 2 feet or more of snow just last year.

Forecasters are cautiously making the public aware of the possibility of a major East Coast storm around October 29. Given the considerable uncertainties involved in long-range forecasting, especially concerning tropical storms that are still in the formative stages, it will take a few more days before meteorologists can be more confident in their predictions.
According to Eric Holthaus, a meteorologist for the Wall Street Journal, if the East Coast storm were to occur, it could be one for the record books.
"What could happen is quite complicated, and may have precedence only a handful of times across the more than 200 years of detailed historical local weather recordkeeping (Big storms in 1804, 1841, 1991, and 2007 come immediately to mind)," Holthaus wrote in a blog post on Monday.
"I'd give the chances of some level of impacts from this storm in Greater New York this weekend at about 1-in-5. That could quickly change (up or down) as the models gather new data from the Hurricane Hunters, whose first flight into the storm will be Monday afternoon. What seems clear is that the large-scale pattern is favorable for steering whatever forms northwestward once it reaches the Atlantic, and as you all know, there's a lot of land and a lot of people in that direction." On Tuesday, Holthaus said the 1-in-5 odds had not changed, but that the forecast wouldn't be much clearer until Thursday or Friday of this week.
Brian McNoldy, a hurricane researcher and tropical forecaster for the Washington Post's Capital Weather Gang blog, also discussed the ultimate fate of the nascent tropical storm in a blog post on Monday. He pointed out that many computer model runs are not simulating the Northeast storm scenario, but that because of its potential impacts, it needs to be watched closely.
"The entire U.S. East Coast from Florida to Maine should at least be casually aware of this storm scenario, especially those who are immediately on the coastline. Always keep in mind that storm conditions may extend hundreds of miles away from the centerline of the track, and dangerous surf and coastal flooding/erosion are possible with the majority of these tracks," he said.
Jason Samenow of the Weather Gang also weighed in with a comprehensive post on Monday afternoon, noting that New England may be more at risk for a significant storm than the nation's capital.
What forecasters do know with much more confidence, though, is that Jamaica may be in store for a damaging storm during the next few days, with strong winds and flooding rains spreading to eastern Cuba, Haiti, Puerto Rico, and the Bahamas.

Why Roger Stone is always pictured in a pose Richard Nixon made famous
Roger Stone emerged from a federal courthouse Jan. 25, raised his arms and flashed two V-shaped hand signs, a gesture Richard M. Nixon made famous.

Roger Stone emerged from a federal courthouse in Florida on Friday, raised his arms wide and flashed two V-shaped hand signs to the mass of press and protesters assembled just for him.
The longtime Trump friend and adviser had just posted a $250,000 bond after being charged by the special counsel's office with obstruction, witness tampering and making false statements. And this symbol invoked comparisons to Richard M. Nixon's gesture as he departed the White House for the final time as president. On Aug. 9, 1974, after the Watergate scandal had forced him to resign, Nixon turned to the crowd one final time before boarding Marine One. Beaming, he swung his arms into a broad V, and formed two "victory" signs with his hands.
Though Nixon frequently used the gesture at speeches and public events as a signal of victory in the Vietnam War, it was this defiant final deployment that has become the defining image of his presidency.
Like his idol, Stone gives those v-shaped signs at every opportunity he gets. The simple gesture is one of his more frequent invocations of his icon.
He deployed it at the Republican National Convention in 2016, where he was drumming up support for then-presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump.
It only takes about a minute for the salute to appear in Netflix's documentary "Get Me Roger Stone," as its subject watches Trump address the Republican National Convention in 2016.
And when said film appeared at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2017, Stone, of course, did this.
Stone's pose on Friday was the talk of the town — by which, of course, we mean political Twitter. Users gawked at Stone's blatant mirroring of Nixon's sign. After all, Nixon is seen as one of the most corrupt figures in U.S. history. If you're under indictment, and have just been arrested by the FBI, why welcome the comparison?
There's something you need to understand.
Nobody stans Richard Milhous Nixon harder than Roger Stone.
He wrote a book in 2014 presenting an alternate history of the Watergate scandal that John Dean, a former aide to the president, called "pure bulls---." (A more favorable publicity blurb came from none other than Donald Trump, president of the Trump Organization: "I knew Nixon in the late '80s. I met him in George Steinbrenner's box at Yankee Stadium. Roger Stone nails it. He really understands Nixon.")
Stone has a back tattoo of Nixon; he is constantly photographed surrounded by pictures of Nixon; he has a martini recipe from Nixon — who got it from Winston Churchill! Or at least, so Stone told the New Yorker.
Again, he has a back tattoo of Nixon.
Stone's connection to Nixon is woven into the fabric of his own political trajectory and philosophy. And he himself has done the weaving (much to the displeasure of the Nixon Foundation).
He first entered the political arena in 1972, when he engaged in some minor shenanigans on behalf of the Nixon reelection campaign. As Jeffrey Toobin reported in a 2008 New Yorker profile of the operative aptly titled "The Dirty Trickster":
Stone moved to Washington to attend George Washington University, but he became so engrossed in Republican politics that he never graduated. He was just nineteen when he played a bit part in the Watergate scandals. He adopted the pseudonym Jason Rainier and made contributions in the name of the Young Socialist Alliance to the campaign of Pete McCloskey, who was challenging Nixon for the Republican nomination in 1972. Stone then sent a receipt to the Manchester Union Leader, to "prove" that Nixon's adversary was a left-wing stooge. Stone hired another Republican operative, who was given the pseudonym Sedan Chair II, to infiltrate the McGovern campaign. Stone's Watergate high jinks were revealed during congressional hearings in 1973, and the news cost Stone his job on the staff of Senator Robert Dole.
"The reason I'm a Nixonite is because of his indestructibility and resilience. He never quit. His whole career was all built around his personal resentment of élitism. ... We had a non-élitist message. We were the party of the workingman!" he told the New Yorker (in 2017 Stone showed up at President Trump's inauguration dressed like Eustace Tilley, for what it's worth).
So it's no wonder that at the most notorious — and, potentially, most dangerous — moment of a controversial career, Stone once again pulled out the victory sign. It startled; it shocked. But it should not surprise.
Correction: A previous version of this article misstated how long it takes Stone to use the V sign in a Netflix documentary. It only takes a little over one minute.
Like Trump, Nixon was obsessed with leaks. It lead to Watergate — and ruin

The young generation is noted for their unique sartorial choices, and it is quite evident that they look for trendy ornaments that go amazingly well with it.
Gone are the days when the coy brides hid themselves behind their grooms. Today's women are smart, modern, stylish and confident. They are eager to express their cheerful and confident personality through the right choices of attires and ornaments.
Even after marriage, they love to wear stylish ornaments which make them look prettier and elegant. This must be the reason why ornaments crafted to perfection, in rose gold, have become the latest trend in jewellery. Edimannickal is incredibly proud to be the first jeweler in central Tranavancore to introduce the rose gold ornaments in exclusive designs. Every piece of ornament at Edimannickal is crafted with precision and perfection, giving importance to both fashion and quality.
"Young girls who roam around freely before marriage shouldn't begin wearing heavy tali chains which weigh at least 8 -10 sovereigns. It is better for them to go for trendy ornaments which are medium weight. This helps them retain their youthfulness forever. Following the olden styles would make them look and feel mature and old unnecessarily.
Edimannickal jewellery has successfully realized that the generation which loves to be young forever doesn't prefer olden styles," says Amble, wife of Sunny Thomas, who heads the creative department of the renowned jewelers.
The young generation is noted for their unique sartorial choices, and it is quite evident that they look for trendy ornaments that go amazingly well with it. Couturiers and fashion designers vow that the pastel colors are very much in vogue. The traditional yellow gold does not look good with the palette of pastels. However, young fashionistas are still in love with the elegance and grace of the yellow metal. Mesmerizing ornaments crafted in rose gold would be the perfect choice in such situations.
Beautiful pieces of ornaments in rose gold could be purchased in matching sets as well. A set of rose gold jewellery which includes a necklace, chains, bangles, earrings and rings would transform any girl into the perfect modern bride.
The royal antique style is still a big hit among the youngsters when it comes to bridal jewellery. However, every piece of antique jewellery may not have the perfect royal sheen. Antique ornaments usually have a darker hue. These ornaments gain the unique royal look when its dark colouris perfectly and intricately merged with the attractive yellow shade of the gold. The antique ornaments at Edimannickal have a touch of brilliant craftsmanship which makes them beautiful, chic and special.
The antique collections usually feature heavy chunks of ornaments, with unattractive shades of faded colour on it. This is where the antique pieces at Edimannickal become unique and special. The jewellery features an elaborate and impressive collection of medium weight antique ornaments which are embellished with intricate works and cute designs.
These ornaments, in stunning designs, make young women look very special on their big day. Besides, they can also be worn with casual clothes and still look chic. One of the significant features which make the royal antique concept designs at Edimannickal stand out is that they are specially crafted at India's traditional jewel workshops.
Chains adorned with beautiful and exclusive stones like emerald, ruby and garnet are the trend among the royal antique ornaments. This special stone ornaments are particularly preferred as elegant bridal jewellery, as it matches incredibly well with the traditional wedding trousseau.
Even while nurturing a special liking for gold jewellery, the young generation loves to be trendy and unique as well. They admire a jewellery house only when it crafts dreamy ornaments using gold of impeccable quality. Edimannickal, which is committed to craft perfection in gold, has truly found a special place in the hearts of the young and the old alike. A visit to Edimannickal's showrooms at Changanassery and Kottayam will give you an idea about the latest trends in gold jewellery.
The showroom at Kottayam was inaugurated in April last year and is located between the collectorate and the Baselius College. The showrooms at Kottayam and Changanessery are headed Sunny Thomas, who hails from the distinguished Edimannickal family.

Q: What does the word 'piriful' exactly mean? In the fifth line of his poem, A Draught of Sunshine, Keats uses the term 'piriful':

...
Instead of a piriful rummer,
My wine overbrims a whole summer;
My bowl is the sky,
And I drink at my eye,
Till I feel in the brain
A Delphian pain -
...

I've tried looking the word up but to no avail.
Hoping to get some light shed on the meaning and etymology of the word.

A: It's a typo. Here is a scan of a printed version.

Surprise! Red-Hot Rockers U2 REALLY Are Squares
Band Hates, Drugs, Takes Wives & Moms on Tour & Read Bible Backstage
The National Enquirer December 01, 1988
In an age of bad-boy rock bands, supergroup U2 is almost too good to be true -- the members condemn drugs, rarely drink, wave off groupies, read the Bible backstage...and frequently bring their wives and mothers along on tour!
"Most fathers would cringe if their daughter brought home a rock 'n' roller -- but as unbelievable as it sounds, U2 are the kind of men a father WANTS his daughter with," said a source who's toured with the four-member band.
The "Mr. Cleans" of rock are drummer Larry Mullen Jr., bass player Adam Clayton, lead singer Paul Hewson -- known as "Bono" -- and guitarist Dave "the Edge" Evans.
Throughout the 1980s they've been one of the hottest groups in rock. Their recent album Rattle and Hum rocketed to No. 1 on the charts -- the first double album to perform that feat since Bruce Springsteen's did in 1980.
Despite their awesome success, U2 grew up in modest surroundings in Dublin, Ireland -- and never forgot their humble roots. Bono married his high school sweetheart. Edge is also married and the doting dad of two daughters. Adam lets his mom comb his hair when she visits backstage. And Larry personally checks the souvenir stands before each concert to make sure vendors are selling quality goods at reasonable prices.
"The band members don't care about being considered square. They don't hide the fact that they're opposed to alcohol and drug use."
"Bono told me about one night at Arizona State University when actor Charlie Sheen came backstage. He said, 'Sheen asked me how we are able to do the things we do musically. Well, I told him the first thing we do is stay away from that stuff -- nodding to a drink he was holding.
"I told him you can either get it together with your work and creativity, or you get it on with that stuff. But you can't do both!
"It was interesting -- because Charlie put his drink down as we spoke, and he didn't pick it up again.' "
Now Sheen credits his chat with Bono as the turning point in his drinking -- he now limits himself to a few beers a week.
"I was there when the band made their recent concert movie and they found out a couple of guys on the set were using cocaine," recalled another source.
"They told the producers to get the offenders off the set and never let them back.
"It was same with the groupies, the girls who hang around rock musicians. The guys in U2 aren't interested.
"Adam Clayton told me, 'Our families are with us because they're so important to each of us -- we would never allow anything to happen that would embarrass them.' "
Said the source who toured with U2: "I'll never forget watching them backstage at a rock festival -- it was a madhouse with all kinds of big-name rockers. There was more drugs and booze in that backstage area than I've ever seen in one place.
"Well, right in the middle of it all, there's Larry, Bono and Edge reading their Bibles!"

Reggie White Jr.'s coaches know he'll make a name for himself with Giants
Jun 4 | 5:54PM
From his namesake to assigned No. 13, White Jr. has had a target on his back
By Tom Krosnowski | Jun 4 | 5:54PM

There's more to Giants undrafted rookie Reggie White Jr. than a familiar name, a familiar number, and familiar stomping grounds.
No, White Jr. is not the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Reggie White, but the other Reggie White who played defensive line in the NFL in the 1990s.
No, he did not ask to wear No. 13 on the Giants as a rookie, becoming the first player to wear the number made famous by ex-Giants star Odell Beckham Jr. since his trade in March.
And no, he is not just "the next Miles Austin," as another undrafted wideout from Monmouth University in New Jersey.
Reggie White Jr. is his own man, and he's gunning for a spot on the New York Giants' opening-day roster.
"[The Giants are] getting a playmaker," says Kevin Callahan, White Jr.'s head coach at Monmouth. "They're getting a dependable, reliable receiver. They're getting a person of great character who is going to represent their organization extremely well. They're getting somebody who is going to add something very positive to their locker room."
On the field and in the locker room, White Jr. is an intriguing addition to Giants' camp.
At 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, White Jr. could fill a much-needed role as a red zone target for Eli Manning. He is the second-tallest receiver on the 90-man roster, and the third-heaviest. But White Jr. isn't just a big frame. His ball skills, combined with his size, make for a tough player to cover.
"He's got outstanding hands," Callahan said. "He has the ability to adjust to the ball and he tracks it very well. Sometimes he makes those difficult catches look easy."
White Jr. has, what his Monmouth wide receivers coach, TJ DiMuzio, calls "deceptive speed" for a big guy. He runs about a 4.50 40-yard dash, which is comparable to smaller speed guys like Victor Cruz (4.47) and Antonio Brown (4.47), and slightly better than similar tall receivers like Mike Evans (4.53) and Davante Adams (4.56).
These gifts helped White Jr. to a record-setting career at Monmouth, a program that has yielded NFL receivers like Austin, Chris Hogan and Neal Sterling. No Monmouth Hawk, not even those guys, has ever had more receptions or receiving yards than White Jr., though.
He's also the only receiver in school history to be named an All-American. He led the Big South in receiving yards, touchdowns, yards per game, and catches per game last year. He may not have been drafted due in part to his small school stature, but White Jr. became the best receiver ever at a campus known for producing NFL wideouts.
"Miles Austin was probably the biggest name for [Monmouth], and we're hoping that Reggie's going to be that next guy that continues to push our name out there," DiMuzio said. "He knows this, and it doesn't put pressure on him. When the lights came on, he was even better."
There's no doubt that White Jr.'s clutch nature is part of why the Giants were interested in signing him. According to his coach, though, White Jr.'s character is just as important as his numbers.
"He's a guy that's a friend to everybody on the team, really a friend to everybody on our campus," Callahan said.
Originally from Maryland and having called Long Branch, N.J. home for the last five years, White Jr. packed up in May and moved near the Giants' training facility in East Rutherford. However, he didn't just move for a more convenient commute.
According to his coach, White Jr. uses the Giants' training facility to work out even when the Giants aren't at practice. For him, it's all a part of making the most of his opportunity.
"He's enjoying the competition," DiMuzio said. "He's enjoying being around the players and how the veterans are helping him out, learning the playbook, and he really feels like he belongs there."
And White Jr. isn't the only person who feels that he belongs in the NFL.
"He earned it," Callahan said. "It's not something that's been given to him, there wasn't any luck. He's earned the opportunity that he's getting, and I know that he's ready to make the most of it."

LEOMINSTER -- City Grant Administrator Wendy Wiiks was confirmed as the city's newest Board of Health member by a unanimous vote of the City Council Tuesday night.
A lifelong Leominster resident and former aide to U.S. Rep. John Olver and state Sen. Robert Antonioni, Wiiks said she was drawn to the position on the board because it represented a departure from her work in grant writing. She also said it would put to use the skills she learned at her previous jobs, particularly interpreting pending state legislation and how that might affect the Board of Health.
"I think the Board of Health is really a board that affects quality of life and that's what I want to do," she told the council.
Because of her employment with the city, the council first had to approve an exemption from the state's conflict of interest law for Wiiks before confirming her appointment.
LUNENBURG -- The Conservation Commission is leading tours of town conservation land on several Sundays beginning at 9:30 a.m. through the month of October. The first in the five-part series of tours was on May 26, when participants took a kayak trip from the viewing deck off of Townsend Harbor, according to the town's website.
The tours are all-ages and "well-behaved" dogs on leashes are welcome to attend.
On June 23, the commission will lead a public tour of the Lane Property and Large Town Forest. On Aug. 25, the commission will lead a tour of Laurelbank Farm.
Then, on Sept. 15, the commission's tour will head to Robbs Hill. The final tour of the series on Oct. 13 will be a "fall foliage hike," the location for which has not yet been determined.
Those who wish to attend the tours should wear suitable clothing and meet members of the Conservation Commission at the Ritter Memorial Building at 9:30 a.m. on those dates.
