Nothing is more ideal on a cold, wintry day than relaxing in front of the comfort and warmth of a crackling fire in your fireplace. However, if you cannot remember the last time that you had your fireplace and chimney cleaned and maintained by a professional chimney sweep, then it is probably time for a thorough cleaning.
Depending on how often you use your fireplace during the winter, a thorough cleaning is recommended no less than once every year. This will protect you and your family against the risk of a fire starting in the chimney or your indoor air quality from being ruined by smoke circulating throughout your home via your HVAC system. When you use your fireplace frequently throughout the colder months of the year, soot accumulates in your chimney. In addition to this, debris and leaves can enter the chimney if there is no rain cap or guard installed. This also restricts the venting of smoke out of your home.
Most importantly, regular chimney cleaning prevents the build-up of creosote, a flammable substance that can ignite and burn very quickly as well as causing a blockage and restricting air flow. A professional chimney sweep will ensure that this has been thoroughly removed from the chimney's interior walls, thereby reducing the risk of a fire occurring.
Finally, cleaning your chimney and fireplace can be quite messy, so it's not a job you would want to attempt yourself. It's best to give Dapper Ducts a call and we'll be happy to get it ready for all those cozy evenings by the fire.


When I was a kid, my dad was an Education student at the University of Alberta. We often went to meet him after class or walk around Campus while he dropped of papers or popped into the library. It has always been a favourite haunt of mine. When I attended my classes here, I would often eat my meals on the quad or lean up against a tree and just take in my surroundings. I often would plan and set goals for my future and imagine where I might be 10 or 20 years from that point.
Not one of those goals ever came true.
Yet, thinking about how the place made me feel as a kid and then as an adult, not much has changed.
I work on the outer rim of campus. I try to go for a run through there to renew my juice every now and then. As soon as I do, I am instantly transport to being a kid and running around Convocation Hall or the Turtle with my little brother. Mom and Dad would stroll at a leisurely pace as Mike and I raced around and climbed rocks or stone stairs for fun.
This week I had the opportunity to go for a run with my Captain. I had not brought Cap to the fairy ground of my youth, so I figured it was a great day to do so.
We started at our home base – RunClub and left the car keys in the basket. I led Captain West down 87th Ave.
It was reminded of the Universiad Games when they built the student housing and then past the Timmons Centre for the Arts. None of which was around when I attended my Anthropology classes. I showed Cap the Quad and my favourite spot between the Arts Building and the Business Building. There is a little dry creek bed with a pond at the base. It is surrounded by benches and an eclectic mix of architecture.
We paused for a moment to take in the surroundings and I remembered running up and down the steps of the Arts building as a kid. Its amazing how memories can just flash back into your brain after decades of not recalling them.
We headed North towards the river and past the Turtle – or rather the Tory Lecture Theatre. I often use this great website to interpret the U of A lingo that evades people who are new or never attended Campus. I was likely 24 before I realized the Turtle was actually the Tory Building.
We stumbled upon the Geoscience Garden, which is a Rock Museum/garden allocated at North Campus.
Captain enjoy this part of the run most.
There were Geese nesting here which I thought was an odd place for them, so I gave them a wide berth and led Captain far away from where they were perched.
After passing the Faculty Club, I ran through the sciences and saw the Nanotech building for the first time. Strange how I come through here all the time and notice something new.
We ran over to Assiniboine Hall and checked out the Tulips and Hares.
The very next day would see 5″ of snow dump on these pour petals.
I marvelled at the artwork on the sides of Civil Engineering, something I had not remembered seeing before.
It was here that Captain watched a fox saunter around the buildings. He didn't growl or attempt to go chase him, but gave a respectful distance. It always amazes me at the variety of wildlife found on the edge of the river valley.
The last big stop we made was at the back of the Education Building, I remembering coming to some lectures here I was 4 and again when I was 19.
I reflected on how different my life turned out than what I expected or planned. I am not a teacher, well, I am not a teacher of children. I suppose we are all teachers in some capacity. I am a runner and work in that industry. Never in my wildest dreams or fantasies would I think I would move into that direction.
Me, the girl who used her brain and not her physical being. Now both are so important to my daily routine. Working on the edge of campus makes me long to go back to school. But for now, I am content to just run the paths and visit the ghosts of my past.
Walking/running along Sask. Drive past the university buildings is one of my favourite places. I miss being on campus even now, soooo many years after graduating!

All posts tagged Christchurch mosque shootings
A 'top secret list' of people being monitored by the police
This should be no surprise – Stuff reports that the police have a 'top secret list' (as it should be) of people they are monitoring, including "white supremacists, Muslim converts and people left disgruntled by the Christchurch terror attack" and "disaffected" people with firearm licences, and others with racist and radical views.
As long as there are genuine concerns about these people and the police are operating legally this should be a reassuring thing?
Stuff – Christchurch terror attack: More than 100 people being monitored by police
More than 100 people – including white supremacists, Muslim converts and people left disgruntled by the Christchurch terror attack – are being actively monitored by police.
Stuff has obtained part of a top secret list that names those who are of concern to police following the March 15 terror attack. Stuff has chosen not to name anyone on the list or contact them for security reasons.
It should be a given that Stuff doesn't name anyone on the list, it would be highly reckless and inappropriate to do so. Stuff seems have made a habit of praising themselves for doing what is expected (and required) of media.
The list, which is understood to have included more than 100 people, includes "disaffected" people with firearm licences, and others with racist and radical views. Police appear to be placing a large focus on social media, with one person making it onto the list for posting "concerning information", including how to make their own live feed on social media.
Police deputy commissioner Mike Clement…
…told Stuff the operation was designed to reassure New Zealanders.
This includes raising awareness through increased visibility on the streets, and visits to thousands of schools, religious places, businesses and community centres.
"While the number of reports has increased since the Christchurch attack, fundamental to being safe and feeling safe is the willingness of people to report behaviours that concern them.
"As a result of the help of the community [we have] spoken with many individuals across New Zealand and in a few instances interventions including arrests have been undertaken."
Canterbury district commander Superintendent John Price…
…also declined to comment on the list's existence, but confirmed there was a group of people whose actions and behaviour had concerned police. He said the intelligence phase of the operation was focused on trying to understand other people who are of interest in the community.
"There may be some concerns around their ideologies, or the fact they may have access to illegal firearms, so that's a large part of that, determining and then acting on that information".
I think that if the police are aware of illegal firearms and access to them then they should be acting on that, not just monitoring them.
"A lot of it is generated through people telling us, looking through social media and other information streams that come into the mix. You scan your information sources, you then analyse those information sources and get to a point you can assess the risk of the threat level."
"If we consider that people may have access to illegal firearms that would raise a concern, it may be that the people are expressing views that we may think is not aligned with our way as New Zealanders".
"If we think there's an inherent risk through that intel we will act on it depending on how considered the threat is to the community as a whole."
Not surprisingly, there is nothing much new about this apart from increased efforts after the mosque killings.
The intelligence model was nothing new, with police regularly using it for other areas of heightened focus to establish more informed information, including family harm, burglaries, volume crime and organised crime.
Clement asked that people remained "vigilant".
"Be aware of your surroundings and if you see something that doesn't look right or is suspicious, report it to police. We would sooner investigate those concerns in a preventative way even if those concerns were unfounded."
If any of your saw things said of concern online would you report it to the police?
More from Gezza:
A Wellington convert who describes himself as "probably the most radical Muslim" in the city says he is happy to co-operate with police and understands their concern.
The man, in his 30s, said he was probably on a top secret list, obtained by Stuff, that names some of more than 100 people police are monitoring since the March 15 attack.

Alleged offences far more serious than downloading massacre footage
It isn't surprising to see that one of the people charged with downloading footage of the Christchurch massacres is alleged to have committed more serious offences than just that.
Stuff: Teen on footage charge allegedly planned mass shooting at school
A high school student who allegedly downloaded footage of the Christchurch massacre also allegedly discussed plans of how best to conduct a mass shooting at his school with fellow students.
The 17-year-old appeared in the Hamilton District Court on Tuesday afternoon on a charge of possession of objectionable material, where he was granted interim name suppression.
The charge against the teenager reads that on April 8 at a location in the Waikato he, "without lawful authority or excuse, had in his possession an objectionable publication, namely camera footage of the Christchurch mosque shootings, knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that the publication is objectionable".
The portion of the police summary that can be reported reveals that police allege they were called to the boy's high school by the principal on Monday, after he was found to be in possession of a USB stick containing footage of the mass killings in Christchurch on March 15.
According to the police summary, he had allegedly been talking to other students about how easy it would be for a mass killing to take place at the school.
His alleged plan involved activating a fire alarm, which would prompt the students and staff to evacuate and congregate on the school fields, where they would be an easy target for a shooter.
The portions of the summary Bourke divulged in court also revealed the teenager had allegedly searched for footage of the Christchurch shooting using the Google search engine. However Google prevented this, so it is claimed he found "alternative ways" of accessing several files of the footage.
He allegedly showed the footage to other male students and the USB stick was passed around, however the teenager did not know whether any of those other students had made copies of the files.
So based on this there seems to be good cause for the police to have arrested and charged him.
Thousands of people will have accessed the video and the manifesto, and most of them won't be investigated or charged. Only those who appear to pose more serious risks will (or should) attract the attention of the police.

Needle ice is also known as pipkrake, a word derived from the Swedish words pip, a musical tube, and krake, frozen ground. A musical tube in the frozen ground. The small, intricate, needle-like spicules form in moist, heavy soils in fall, winter, and spring, and act as agents of erosion. Water drawn toward the surface freezes into thin, tiny slivers that loosen the surrounding ground into ice flakes and chunks. Needle ice is a type of ground ice, but the term is sometimes used as a synonym for candle ice, especially when the "candles" are relatively short and narrow. Some also apply the term to random concentrations of small, sharp spicules that occasionally form on the surface of sea ice, creating a painful bed of nails for sled dogs.


Ginkgo biloba is an herb that has received acclaim as a memory enhancer and anti-aging product. It's now among the ten most popular dietary supplements sold in the United States.
Although it has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine for lung disorders, ginkgo extract has more recently been used in Europe and North America against the symptoms of aging. It is believed to stimulate circulation and oxygen flow to the brain, which can improve problem-solving and enhance memory.
In a group of older people with mobility problems, ginkgo improved pain-free walking distance by as much as 30 percent. Long-term ginkgo use appears to reduce cardiovascular risks. It has also been shown to improve the cognitive function of Alzheimer's Disease patients.
Differences in the production, labeling and marketing of this extract make it essential that consumers scrutinize the products they buy in order to maximize positive benefits while minimizing risks.
Before purchasing a product, you should inspect the label. Manufacturers are now required to label their products with nutritional labeling that lists ingredients in descending order. Look for information on the label that indicates that a standardized extract of 24 percent ginkgo flavonglycosides and 6 percent terpenes has been used to prepare the product. The flavonoids are antioxidants. Both flavonoids and terpenes are believed to help protect brain function. Because herbal medicines are made from crude extracts of plants, look to see if there is any indication that the manufacturing process has removed any pesticides that may have been used in the plant cultivation. In addition, the product should have an expiration date.
Don't expect to feel it right away. It may be several weeks before any effect will be noticeable. Many people also believe that it's a good idea to give the body a rest periodically by taking some time off from using the extract, for example, by taking one month off after six months of use.
It is also important to be aware that herbal medicines can have drug interactions with other herbal preparations you may be taking, or with other over the counter or prescription medicines. For this reason, you should consult with your physician or pharmacist before taking any herbal preparation. For example, ginkgo diminishes the blood's ability to clot. It should definitely not be taken with anticoagulants such as coumadin or aspirin. With very large doses, side effects of ginkgo can include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, irritability and restlessness.
The American Botanical Council has recently published the Complete German Commission E Monographs, which describe the potential therapeutic applications of a variety of herbal medicines.


8. WHAT SKILLS AND TALENTS WILL YOU BRING TO THE 6IC? I'm relatively new with only 60 hours in game. But I trade a lot so I can help out any traders or join a wing that goes pirating or on bounties to gain that experience.


We can't change everyone and everything all at once. There are going to be several steps forward and a couple steps back along the way. Don't let that discourage you. It's like a golf game. You're going to have some good rounds and some bad ones. When you have a bad round, pick up your gear and move on to the next hole. A bad swing or lost ball never means it's time to walk off the course.
It's not a single transaction.
God isn't just using this change to help improve others, he's using others to grow and improve you. Whatever time you think it's going to take to roll something out, multiply that by at least three. It's not linear but multi-dimensional. There is more at play than we can see. With faith, persistence and a commitment to self-awareness, the stars will start to come into alignment down the road. It took me about three years to start to see a tipping point for some initiatives I've led in the past—not three months like I projected.
While you will build more advocates in your camp along the way, it will never be 100 percent consensus. You will need to keep refining your emotional intelligence, vision casting, coaching, storytelling and redirecting skillset. There will always be new team members or difficult personalities unwilling or unable to change. What you can look forward to, though, is the hard part being 20 percent of your job instead of 80 percent.

Q: C++ Windows DLL using try-catch block internally fails I am trying to create a Windows DLL using gcc version 4.7.2, however I'm facing problems when I use Exceptions internally. In the DLL code I am throwing an exception found in test() method which is caught in the same method. Below is the code found in main.cpp:
#include <cstdlib>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
#include "dllexport.h"

using namespace std;

ADDAPI int test()
{
    try
    {
        throw 2;
    }catch(...)
    {
        std::cout << "Caught";
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

//Link to correct DllMain if C++ is used
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
BOOL APIENTRY DllMain(HINSTANCE hModule, DWORD  reason, LPVOID lpReserved)
{
    switch (reason)
    {
        case DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH:
        break;
        case DLL_THREAD_ATTACH:
        break;
        case DLL_THREAD_DETACH:
        break;
        case DLL_PROCESS_DETACH:
        break;
    }
    return TRUE;
}

and the relevant header found in dllexport.h
#ifndef DLLEXPORT_H
#define DLLEXPORT_H

/* Define calling convention in one place, for convenience. */
#define ADDCALL __stdcall

/* Usually format is ADDAPI int ADDCALL Add(int a, int b)...
   but moving ADDCALL near ADDAPI works in gcc */

/* You should define BUILDING_DLL *only* when building the DLL. */
#ifdef BUILDING_DLL
  #define ADDAPI __declspec(dllexport) ADDCALL
#else
  #define ADDAPI __declspec(dllimport) ADDCALL
#endif

#ifdef  __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

    ADDAPI int test();

#ifdef  __cplusplus
}
#endif

#endif  /* DLLEXPORT_H */

This compiles fine, however when I try to call the test method from a process which links to it, the following error is returned:
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
I compile the dll using the following:
g++ -c main.cpp -O3 -DBUILDING_DLL
g++ -o mydll.dll main.o -shared -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -Wl,--add-stdcall-alias

Additionally, I compile the client application using -lmydll. I understand that it is risky to throw exceptions from DLLs and catching them in a process, however I am not doing so, as exceptions will all be handled internally in the DLL.
What am I doing wrong?
Edit:
Removing static linking of libstdc++ to the DLL solves the issue. However, it would be ideal if the DLL resolved all the dependencies internally, in order for it to be self-contained. What can I do to attain the above?

A: I have faced the same issue and it appears that I had to compile the client application also with below line
-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc

in order that it works.

How tall is Damian Lillard?
Here are some information about Damian Lillard's height.
Damian Lamonte Ollie Lillard is an American professional basketball player. The height of Damian Lillard is 6ft 3in, that makes him 191cm tall.
Damian Lillard's height is 6ft 3in or 191cm while I am 5ft 10in or 177cm. I am shorter compared to him. To find out how much shorter I am, we would have to subtract my height from Damian Lillard's height. Therefore I am shorter to him for about 14cm.
And see your physical height difference with Damian Lillard.
Do you feel that this height information for Damian Lillard is incorrect?

Whoever wishes to make progress in perfection should use particular diligence in not allowing himself to be led away by his passions, which destroy with one hand the spiritual edifice which is rising by the labors of the other. But to succeed well in this, resistance should be begun while the passions are yet weak; for after they are thoroughly rooted and grown up, there is scarcely any remedy.
If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.
Do I believe the execution will work out? Les Moonves said yes to Survivor based partly upon my show Eco-Challenge. He liked my way of filming outdoors. It was the first use of helicopters on a documentary with the gyro-stabilized lenses. And a certain beauty of filming, allowing the drops to fall from a leaf into a puddle, allowing a spider to weave a web. Taking the breath to allow that to happen rather than showing scene after scene.
One of the odd things about middle age, he concluded, was the strange decisions a man discovers he's made by not really making them, like allowing friends to drift away through simple neglect.
Independent travel does that, bringing temporarily together these wandering ships that would otherwise pass in the night. Relationships were mostly brief and sometimes downright fleeting.

Religious faith obscures uncertainty where uncertainty . . . exists, allowing the unknown, the implausible, and the . . . false to achieve primacy over the facts.
The observations and experiments of science are so wonderful that the truth that they establish can surely be accepted as another manifestation of God. God shows himself by allowing man to establish truth.

Leading technology recruitment specialist Head Resourcing has appointed Joseph Apted as Principal Consultant of the newly launched senior appointments division of the company.
Based in Edinburgh, Joseph will drive the senior appointments team as it implements an ambitious strategy to address the ever-increasing demand for exceptional technology leadership talent in Scotland and North West England.
With 19 years of experience in IT recruitment, Joseph has seen the required skillset of technology leaders change dramatically, and has most recently focussed on leadership appointments within the data and analytics space.
His career in London focussed primarily on financial services, working with a diverse range of organisations across both the sell-side and the buy-side. This included everything from functional technology leadership roles, through to senior roles within data and analytics and cyber security. He returned to Scotland in 2016, and joins Head Resourcing from executive search company Milburn Lewis, where he grew his Scottish network.
Anna Knight, who will lead the Senior Appointments arm at Head Resourcing said: "We're delighted to have Joseph join at an exciting time for the company. Joseph's experience working at a senior level makes him the perfect person to build on our new division.
"He has worked in IT and financial services recruitment for all of his career, and his extensive knowledge of senior appointments within the sector will allow him to work in partnership with companies to identify the skills and experience required within the leadership team, and ensure we are sourcing the very best talent for our clients.
"There is so much opportunity for growth in the Scottish technology scene at the moment, and we are delighted to have Joe on board to support our new senior appointments offering."

Yesterday I talked about the problems with day-one DLC and the importance of building brand trust.
After listening to long-time fans of BioWare and their games - especially the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series - the inescapable sentiment is clear: fans, and particularly super-fans of these games, feel betrayed. BioWare may disagree, and may think that the gamers are ranting for no good reason. And I have no reason to believe that BioWare isn't trying to make great games for their fans.
The problem is one of perception. Videos like this, which contradict so much of what BioWare and EA have been saying about the downloadable content, only serve to shatter that trust even more.
1. Since BioWare joined forces with EA, their games have gone from cerebral, complex, and unique to simplified games that sacrifice gameplay for story.
2. Worse, for games built around story, the mythology, at least in the Mass Effect franchise, has been changed in ways that make what was supposed to be a progressively unfolding plot incoherent. Many of the complaints I have heard are similar to those of Lost fans, disappointed with that show's bizarre finale. As a Lost fan, I can certainly empathize.
3. The day-one DLC gives off the impression that BioWare and EA are more interested in squeezing cash out of their customers than in providing a quality game from the start.
The above video will only add fuel to the fire. With BioWare stating that the "From Ashes" was not developed alongside the rest of the game and not included on the disc, and a simple hack showing that this is not the case, it's hard to see how the developer can possibly respond in a satisfying way.
As I've said previously, I want BioWare to succeed. I think many of its fans (and former fans) do as well. When your biggest fans start "ranting" about things like day-one DLC, the best thing to do is to listen and try to figure out why. That old adage "The customer is always right" applies here. Of course it's not always true that the customer is always right, but it's certainly important to take customer concerns into account rather than merely deflect them. It's good for business.
P.S. I don't know what kind of a rock and a hard place the team at BioWare may find themselves between right now. I don't know what sort of influence EA has over these types of decisions. My guess is that many people at BioWare are feeling really frustrated as well. It's a difficult situation to be in. A lot of work went into games like Mass Effect 3 and Star Wars: The Old Republic. A bunch of people worked very hard and likely had no input on the bad decisions that have led to this backlash.
I say this because I sort of cringe when I see how this is all shaking out. The animosity between developers and fans feels completely wrong to me. Games are supposed to be fun! The whole experience ought to be one where everybody walks out with a big grin - developers make money, fans get great games and everybody wins. That's not happening, and expecting fans to "just stop complaining" is in no way the answer.
P.P.S. It's not clear whether this means the entire "From Ashes" DLC is included on the disc or whether this is just the Prothean character.
It is clearer now that what this video shows is the main easter-egg included on the DLC, "From Ashes" (a Prothean crew member) - not the entire DLC.
Furthermore, I am not - as some commenters have claimed - attempting to "tarnish" the reputation of BioWare. I have said repeatedly that I actually enjoyed Mass Effect 3 and think that much of the game was done very well. I haven't played most of BioWare's games, but I'm certain they are doing their best to craft titles people will enjoy.
1) I am trying to listen to what fans are saying, and to better understand their frustration. This includes looking at the reasons fans feel betrayed and ripped off. Whether this video shows the entire DLC or just part of it, I think it does show that a portion of the game was left out of the final release to be included as day-one DLC. This is not like offering a free "bonus" chapter to a book after a novel comes out for an additional fee. It's much more like leaving out a chapter from the middle of the book that informs the rest of the story, and then asking people to pay extra for it on the same day. Even if I'm wrong about this, the perception is impossible to ignore.
2) I am trying to offer BioWare and other developers my advice - as worthless as it may be - about the importance of building brand trust - especially in the age of social media. I love games, and I think developers put a lot of sweat and tears into making them. I want to see as many titles as possible succeed. The ham-handed way that EA and BioWare appear to be handling the fallout of this and the past couple of BioWare titles seems wrong-headed to me. I think some decent PR work could mend a lot of hurt between the developers and their fans. As I've stated repeatedly, this is not an attempt at "sensational journalism" - it's my attempt to look at both sides of the issue and offer my analysis of the situation. You may disagree with what I come up with in the end, but I have no interest in tearing down BioWare or anybody else for that matter.
I appreciate all the feedback I've gotten.


This course covers examples of mathematical applications in many areas including voting theory, fair division, apportionment, and Euler and Hamilton circuits. In this course, we hope to demonstrate to the students that mathematics is very useful in contemporary problems in our society - from voting theory issues to apportionment of the seats in the U.S. House of Representatives to optimizing the route taken by a delivery person and a variety of other issues. We focus on historical issues related to such contemporary problems and also discuss the merits of various problem-solving techniques throughout the course.

Scientists: Someone is manufacturing banned, ozone-destroying chemical
"A delay in ozone recovery [.] is anticipated, with an overall importance depending on the trajectory of CFC-11 emissions and concentrations in the future".
Widely used for production sprays, foams, solvents and refrigerants since the 1930s, CFC chemicals were banned internationally in 2010 according to the Montreal Protocol, after scientists found out that CFCs release chlorine molecules into the atmosphere, "eating" ozone.
The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Colorado has alarmed the global community with their discovery of increased emissions of an ozone-depleting chemical, whose production was banned worldwide almost ten years ago. But with emissions on the rise, scientists suspect someone is making the chemical in defiance of the ban. But the researchers noticed the rate at which it is declining appeared to be slowing down.
But we aren't. CFC-11 levels dropped some 2.1 ppt (parts-per-trillion) each year between 2002 and 2012.
"We're raising a flag to the global community to say, 'This is what's going on, and it is taking us away from timely recovery from ozone depletion.' Further work is needed to figure out exactly why emissions of CFC-11 are increasing and if something can be done about it soon", research leading author Stephen Montzka said.
Trump Calls Some Immigrants 'Animals' In Sanctuary Policy Meeting
These are animals ", Trump said . "We are taking them out of the country at a level and at a rate that's never happened before". The administration claims the law obstructs federal immigration agents from doing their work and violates the U.S.
'In a word, these results are shocking, ' says Dwayne Heard, an atmospheric chemist at the University of Leeds in the UK.
According to global CFC-11 levels measured by scientists at NOAA and Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), the concentration of the chemical declined at an accelerating rate till 2002, but then, the fall became stagnant for nearly a decade. I think this will be quite a shock to many people who, like me, thought the Montreal Protocol was working well'.
These could hamper the recovery of the ozone hole and worsen climate change. The substance is also a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. This suggests that there may be a new and unreported production of CFC-11, possibly from East Asia. Some early systems might be having a CFC-11 leak but such systems should slowly vanish so that the concentration of the chemical in the atmosphere diminishes over time. The chemical can be a byproduct in other chemical manufacturing, but it is supposed to be captured and recycled. Rather, the evidence "strongly suggests" a new source of emissions, the scientists wrote.
Another key question is whether there could be another explanation for a slower decline in CFC-11 post-2012, such as a change in the rate of chemical processes such as UV photolysis that break down CFC-11 in the stratosphere, or an increase in emissions from CFC "banks" - reservoirs that persist in old equipment and products that are still in use. 'Three different instrument measurements systems are used by NOAA to measure CFC-11, and they all showed the same trends, ' he says. He adds that it is safe to rule out experimental error.

  Introducing React Native

  March 26, 2015
  by

      Ben Alpert

In January at React.js Conf, we announced React Native, a new framework for building native apps using React. We're happy to announce that we're open-sourcing React Native and you can start building your apps with it today.

For more details, see Tom Occhino's post on the Facebook Engineering blog:

What we really want is the user experience of the native mobile platforms, combined with the developer experience we have when building with React on the web.

With a bit of work, we can make it so the exact same React that's on GitHub can power truly native mobile applications. The only difference in the mobile environment is that instead of running React in the browser and rendering to divs and spans, we run it an embedded instance of JavaScriptCore inside our apps and render to higher-level platform-specific components.

It's worth noting that we're not chasing "write once, run anywhere." Different platforms have different looks, feels, and capabilities, and as such, we should still be developing discrete apps for each platform, but the same set of engineers should be able to build applications for whatever platform they choose, without needing to learn a fundamentally different set of technologies for each. We call this approach "learn once, write anywhere."

To learn more, visit the React Native website.

What Are Analysts Claims About Iconix Brand Group, Inc. (ICON) and NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA)?
Iconix Brand Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:ICON) attracted a higher number of shares in volume with 11065219 contracts traded on 11-Mar-19. However, its trading capacity stayed around 5144320 shares in normal days. The first sale was made at $0.35 but later the stock became weaker, and closed with a gain of 27.66%. It was last traded at $0.45 apiece.
Iconix Brand Group, Inc. (ICON) remained unsuccessful in beating the consensus-estimated $0.12 as it actually earned $0.12 per share in its last reported financial results. Revenue, on the other hand, scored 11.23% growth from the previous quarter, coming up with $54 million.
This company shares (ICON) so far managed to recover 512.05% since collapsing to its 52-week low. Over a week, it has seen its stock price volatility to stay at 31.85% while widening the period to a month, volatility was 20.28%. The share price has already crossed its 20 days moving average, floating at a distance of 107.74% and sits 171.49% higher versus its 50 days moving average. When looking at the past five sessions, the stock returned 33.69% gains and is up by 34.62% compared with its 200-day moving average of $0.1993. Also, Iconix Brand Group, Inc. (ICON) needs to overturn a -65.09% decrease it experienced over the past twelve months.
As regular trading ended, NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) stock brought in a $10.5 rise to $161.14. The day started at a price of $151.59 but then traded as high as $162.06 before giving part of the gains back. As for this week, analysts appear content to stick with their neutral outlook with the consensus call at 2.1. NVIDIA Corporation is given 11 buy-equivalent recommendations, 0 sells and 9 holds. The company shares sank -44.96% from their peak of $292.76 and now has a $96.76 billion market value of equity.
NVDA's mean recommendation on Reuter's scale slipped from 2.03 thirty days ago to 2 now, which indicates a hold consensus from the analyst community. They see NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) price hitting a mean target of $186.53 a share, meaning the stock still has potential that could lift the price another 15.76% . Also, the recent close suggests the stock is underpriced by 39.63% compared to the most bullish target.

Return to Wonder
"Return to Wonder" - acrylic on paper, 18" x 12". Available here and at Artfinder.
To be alive is power,
Existing in itself,
Without a further function,
Omnipotence enough.
--Emily Dickinson
The final painting of 2018 is a return to abstraction. A paint over with a little nod to the ethereal wonderland that is the wilds of Oregon.
There is a desire to reflect at the end of a year...to set goals, analyze successes and failures and to make resolutions. I am a huge supporter of future planning and goal setting! But this time - this time I am going to simply be alive. As Dickinson says, existing in itself, without further function.
And for me this is a massive leap into the unknown. To just exist, to let one year roll into the next without (GASP) a plan? Inconceivable! And yet, I am going to do it.
Wherever you are in the wide world, as the new year opens the door to unending possibility, I wish for you a return to wonder and the unwavering belief in a trail of breadcrumbs that points to the best life possible. And, of course, a liberal dose of malarkey along the way. Happy New Year!
This week's picks in PDX!
Hiking: Tryon Creek Park. This park in south west Portland is a great hike when you can't commit to a full day. Lots of small trails, plenty of incline and interesting bridges and gullies. And it's dang pretty!
Dining: Wayfinder. Great beer, great food. Try the Freedom Hash (vegan) or the Chicken Schnitzel. And they deliver through the Caviar app (when you don't want to get out of your pajamas). Easy peasy.
Fun and Games: Guardian Games. The largest selection of board (and other) games I have ever seen. And a pub. And some super helpful game nerds who will make sure you leave with the best game ever. We really appreciated their IRS sale (The IRS really sucks inventory reduction sale) and so did half of PDX who stood in line with us.
You're Here to Take Over
"You're Here to Take Over" - acrylic on aquabord, 11" x 14". Ready to frame, or can be leaned against a wall upon a shelf. Available here and at Artfinder.
You're not here to take part,
You're here to take over.
Whoa. This sentence landed in a horoscope for Leos several days ago. And it twirled around in my head until I had to paint it. The timing was particularly scrumptious, because I had just been inspired by another artist, who FEARLESSLY painted exactly what she wanted to, despite its unconventionality, and then posted it everywhere.
That kind of bravery is exactly what we're called to do in art. Paint without boundaries, censors or inner critics. Ignore the masses and break new ground - even if others cannot yet appreciate it (or never do). It was a much needed kick in the pants for me, and has me more determined than ever to bushwhack a wildly creative path in the new year.
And so a sword-wielding warrior woman has taken over the studio. I love it when that happens.
This is also a lesson in surrounding yourself with the right people. Creative people need creative people. No timid Tinkerbells or passive Petunias (or Peters) - give us brazen Berthas and courageous Clydes! We rise (or fall) to the bar set set by our peers. A high bar pushes us forward and helps us feel unfettered. I am darned lucky to be surrounded by artists who don't stop pressing forward.
Now where on earth did I put my sword?
Let's Hear it for the boys
"Ron and Pongo" - acrylic on Aquabord, 16" x 20" NFS.
Channeling my inner Fritz Scholder this week with an oddball portrait of the traveling pair who braved a trip across the country through three blizzards, a torrential downpour and the unexpected attention of a couple of state troopers in Nebraska (who were apparently fond of Great Danes).
Super Ron managed to unpack an entire household, assemble furniture, lug 24 bags of mulch (to make the unfinished back yard Pongo-friendly) and bring me icepacks. Pongo provided expert moral support. :)
This is not the first journey of its kind in the Walls family. Around 1846, John Freeman Walls made his way as a fugitive from a plantation in North Carolina all the way to Canada, where he built a log cabin and established a legacy that lives on today at the John Freeman Walls Historical Site. Some later generations of Walls' intermarried with native tribespeople in Canada, and then made their way back into the U.S.A.
Fritz Scholder - Man & Dog #17
So it isn't lost on me, this symbolic journey. It began with our move to North Carolina in 2006, where a Walls put his feet back in the state where it all began. A decade or so later, the Great Westward Walls Family Migration (as it is known in our household) started after a brief detour to Florida.. There is a sense of having made a long trek to somewhere more accepting of all kinds of humans. I imagine John Freeman Walls felt similarly when he arrived in Canada over a century ago.
Fritz Scholder, an American painter who long ignored his own Native American heritage, eventually became known for being that very thing - and for changing the concept of the "Indian artist." And on occasion, he painted a man with a dog, :)

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves.
--Rainer Maria Rilke
Here in the land of green and groovy, the light is soft and diffused. It is the perfect setting for contemplating the big mysteries of life while taking a well-earned rest.
And rest it is to be reunited with charcoal and paints, letting the muse have her way with me. Today she insists on a restful figure and a three color palette. I am happy to oblige.
There is a great temptation, when relocating, to resolve everything as soon as possible. Unpacking, setting things up, making spaces work, finding "our" grocery store, gas station, bank, coffee shop...but Rilke's words whisper to me.
Be patient. Love the questions, Sit with what is unresolved.
There it is....the dreaded "P-word" again. But somehow, here, it is easier to wait. Easier to pause - delightful, even. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, stops to exchange pleasantries, offer a smile, ask if you need help. I have to stop myself from rushing and bustling through the day, because I think here that would be downright rude! Just like in lovely Listowel in Ireland. I am doing a lot of sighing and smiling here. It is sweet relief.
In the studio, there is a temptation to resolve my direction - who am (artistically) here in Oregon? What will I create? Who is my muse? What does she want? Ahhhhhh. But here, too, I will love the questions themselves and strap myself in for the journey. If I listen closely, there might be magic along the way.
For those of you contemplating a visit to the PNW, I will share my favorite new spots as I find them. These might be cool places to visit if you're ever out here (which I hope you will be!)
Today's lunch spot, and my new favorite AMAZING Mexican restaurant is Tamale Boy in the Dekum Triangle. It's just blocks from my house, and super delicious. Try the cauliflower.
This week's delightful shop discovery is actually a favorite from a prior visit to PDX, and I was thrilled to find it still thriving: Woonwinkle. Who can resist this?
The green green green of home
We're having what you'd call a soft landing here in Portland.
Staggered arrivals, days apart - people, car, belongings, dog. Camping (or "glamping") in our own house with just the bare necessities. Dipping toes into Portland - a little here, a little there. Slowly, softly, no hurry.
It's winter. So that means chilly with wind, misty rain and mostly gray skies. Perfect for tromping through local parks with Pongo, who is struggling a little with all the changes but eager to sniff his new turf.
The overwhelming theme here is green. Green mosses, green grass, green trees, green foliage. Green practices - recycling, reusing, respecting the environment. Green spaces - every other yard certified as a back yard habitat and sporting a front yard vegetable garden. Green.
There is beauty just a block from our new home, Woodlawn Park. It reminds me a bit of the Garden of Europe in Listowel, County Kerry, Ireland, where I spent many lovely days a year ago. My heart soars having an open green space so close by.
These might seem like simple tree photos to those of you in northern climes...but to the likes of us, just coming from as deeply south as a human can live in the USA, these trees are magical unicorns prancing in our dreams. Trees! Tall, majestic, evergreen and shady. A verdant wonderland all around.
I cannot help but breathe deeply and sigh with relief. We are home.
THE Entertainment center
Once upon a time there was a massive entertainment center.
It was lovely, functional and pretty much kept to itself, quietly holding everything the family loved to enjoy...board games, family photos, televisions, game consoles, books and memorabilia.
The entertainment center stayed the same, stoic and steadfast, while the world around it changed. Its doors never sagged, its lights always twinkled when turned on, and it kept its contents safe and sound.
No one noticed how aged it was. How outdated. How televisions had grown to a size that would no longer fit in its arms. No one noticed how the styles had changed and how HGTV and those rascally Property Brothers had made wall-mounted televisions the new fad. The entertainment center had become irrelevant.
When the family decided to move, they realized the entertainment center would not fit in their new home. So they began a concerted effort to find an adopted family for their beloved entertainment center. They praised it on Craigslist. They listed its virtues to neighbors. They offered its amazingness to Habitat for Humanity. No one wanted the aged behemoth.
The family decided to try to coax the aging hardwood beast to the curb for bulk pick-up day. Nothing would move it from its rooted position, bolted to the walls and weighted with the years.
So, with heavy hearts, the family called a junk man. The junk man arrived and eyed the beast with wariness....waving a price sheet and predicting massive volume and labor and cost. With much wailing and moaning and gnashing of teeth, the family pulled out a credit card. What a surprise when they became riveted to the live action of watching two men wrestle the beast, moaning and groaning and gnashing their own teeth as they fought the kraken and the kraken fought back, gripping the wall and the sides and the floor for hours.
Even in its last moments, the entertainment center provided entertainment, going out with gusto and leaving a trail of sawdust and sweat. The junk man declared it the most fearsome entertainment center of all time and hauled it away in his junk-hauling truck.
The family, in honor of the beast, decided NEVER to invite an entertainment center into their home again, preserving its one-of-a-kind memories for all time.

Head Transplants Violate Chinese Regulations, Official Says
Xu Wei
DATE : Nov 24 2017 /SOURCE : Yicai
(Yicai Global) Nov. 24 -- Clinical tests like head transplants will probably never be allowed in China, Huang Jiefu, chairman of the country's National Organ Donation and Transplantation Committee (NODTC) and former deputy health minister, said yesterday.
A team led by Harbin Medical University's Prof. Ren Xiaoping and Italian neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero performed an anatomical study on two corpses that featured a head being attached to a different body, commonly known as head transplant, a year ago. Though Ren did not provide details about the clinical test, he was confident about the results.
The study was recently misinterpreted as the first "head transplant," triggering a wave of controversy.
"As a transplant surgeon, I explicitly oppose such rhetoric," Huang said. Clinical head transplants violate Chinese regulations on human organ transplantation, he said, adding that he hopes the relevant ethics committees can perform their duties.
Head transplants involve spinal cord regeneration, for which surgeons worldwide have failed to find a solution, and brain preservation under ischemia. Spinal cord repair is a particularly difficult problem. The central nervous system is considered non-renewable tissues, while spinal cord injuries are a problem that humans cannot effectively deal with.
Although Ren and Canavero proposed using polyethylene glycol (PEG) to fuse severed spinal cord pieces, the mainstream academic community is doubtful. "It is as if a submarine cable in the Atlantic Ocean is broken, and some want to use an adhesive to make it stick together so that it will work again," said Abraham Shaked, a professor at the Penn Transplant Institute of the University of Pennsylvania.
"Thousands of patients with spinal cord injuries in the world have disabilities," Huang said. "Why can't the so-called head transplant scientists come up with experimental evidence showing that central nervous system damage can be repaired? Why can't they provide evidence of a successful experiment on animals?"
Head transplants are likely impossible, and face serious challenges in terms of medical ethics. "Liver transplants are for patients with liver failure, and kidney transplants are for patients with kidney failure," Huang said. "Patients are still themselves after going through a liver transplant or a kidney transplant, but who is a patient if he or she undergoes a head transplant?"
Head transplants are not permitted for ethical reasons, Huang said.

Pope Pius XII guided the Catholic Church through two tumultuous decades, firmly establishing himself as a champion of peace, and the moral voice of a world torn apart by war. However, shortly after his death in 1958, his heroic legacy has been called into question by some historians who claim that his alleged "silence" during the Nazi holocaust allowed Hitler to carry out his Final Solution against the Jews. Pope Pius XII protested vehemently the persecution of Jews. His was a prophecy in action, which saved the lives of countless victims of the neo-pagan Nazi reign of terror, rather than potentially counter-productive public statements.

John Nance "Cactus Jack" Garner (* 22. November 1868 bei Detroit, Texas; † 7. November 1967 in Uvalde, Uvalde County, Texas) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker der Demokratischen Partei. Von 1933 bis 1941 war er unter Franklin D. Roosevelt der 32. Vizepräsident der Vereinigten Staaten. Zuvor gehörte er seit 1903 dem US-Repräsentantenhaus an, dem er seit 1931 als dessen Sprecher vorstand.

Leben

Ausbildung und politischer Aufstieg

John Nance Garner wurde 1868 im texanischen Detroit geboren. In Clarksville studierte Garner Rechtswissenschaften und praktizierte seit 1890 in Uvalde als Anwalt und Herausgeber des Uvalde Leader. Bald wurde Garner, der sich der Demokratischen Partei anschloss, zum Bezirksrichter im Uvalde County gewählt. Diese Position übte er bis zum Jahr 1896 aus, als er erfolgreich für das Repräsentantenhaus von Texas kandidierte. Dem gehörte er nach zwei Wiederwahlen 1898 und 1900 noch bis Anfang 1903 an. Zu dieser Zeit hatten die Demokraten de facto keine politische Gegenpartei, da sie, anders als heute, nahezu vollständig die gesamten Südstaaten, den sogenannten Solid South, dominierten. Für Kandidaten waren daher die parteiinternen Vorwahlen von erheblich größerer Bedeutung als die eigentliche Wahl. Hier war die Partei im Gegensatz zu den Nordstaaten bedeutend konservativer. Während Garners Zeit als Abgeordneter im texanischen Repräsentantenhaus fanden Beratungen statt, was die offizielle Pflanze des Bundesstaates sein solle. Garner schlug vergeblich die Kakteen Opuntien vor. Dies brachte ihm den dauerhaften Spitznamen "Cactus Jack" ein.

Im Jahr 1895 heiratete er Mariette Elizabeth Rheiner. Mariette war 1893, bevor Frauen in Texas das Wahlrecht erhielten, erfolglos gegen Garner als Bezirksrichterin angetreten. Aus der Ehe ging der Sohn Tully Charles Garner (1896–1968) hervor.

Im November 1902 stellte Garner sich für den neuen 15. Kongresswahlbezirk von Texas zur Wahl. Nach seinem Wahlerfolg konnte er ab März 1903 als Abgeordneter ins US-Repräsentantenhaus einziehen. Seither wurde Garner im Turnus von zwei Jahren bis einschließlich 1932 wiedergewählt. Seine Frau war während seiner Abgeordnetentätigkeit auch seine Sekretärin. Im Jahr 1913 unterstützte er die Verabschiedung des 16. Verfassungszusatzes zur Einführung einer nationalen Einkommensteuer, die zuvor ausschließlich von den Bundesstaaten und Countys erhoben wurde. 1929 stieg Garner zum Fraktionsführer der Demokraten auf und war damit Minority Leader (Vorsitzender der Minderheitsfraktion). Nach den Halbzeitwahlen von 1930 konnten die Republikaner, deren Popularität durch die Great Depression schwand, nur noch eine knappe Mehrheit im Kongresskammer behaupten. Im Oktober 1931 kam es durch Mandatsverluste und Nachwahlen in einzelnen Wahlkreisen zu einem Wechsel der Mehrheitsverhältnisse. Die Demokraten sicherten sich zunächst eine Mehrheit von nur einem Sitz, die sich bis zum Herbst 1932 noch etwas vergrößerte. Als Vorsitzender seiner Fraktion wurde Garner daher Ende 1931 zum Sprecher des Hauses, also zum Vorsitzenden, gewählt.

Vizepräsident der Vereinigten Staaten

Im Vorfeld der Präsidentschaftswahl 1932 bewarb sich Garner um die Kandidatur der Demokraten. Aufgrund der Wirtschaftskrise rechnete sich die Partei gute Chancen aus, Amtsinhaber Herbert Hoover abzulösen. Auf dem Nominierungsparteitag im Juli des Jahres konnte er seine Unterstützung jedoch nicht über den konservativen Parteiflügel aus dem Süden ausweiten. Stärkster Bewerber war Franklin D. Roosevelt, der damalige Gouverneur von New York. Allerdings fehlten ihm noch etwa 100 Delegiertenstimmen, um aufgestellt zu werden. Aufgrund seiner Chancenlosigkeit zog Garner seine Bewerbung zurück. Es kam zu einer Absprache mit Roosevelt: Garner würde sich für den New Yorker Gouverneur aussprechen und diesem seine Delegierten zuschlagen; im Gegenzug wurde er selbst zum Kandidaten für die Vizepräsidentschaft. Zu dem linksliberal und progressiv eingestellten Roosevelt aus einem nördlichen Staat schien der konservative Garner aus dem Süden als Running Mate sowohl geographisch als auch ideologisch eine sinnvolle Ergänzung, um einer breiten Masse Identifikation mit dem demokratischen Gespann zu ermöglichen. Die Präsidentschaftswahl am 8. November 1932 gewannen die beiden dann mit 57,4 % der Stimmen sowie 472 von 531 Wahlmännern sehr deutlich. Während Roosevelt am 4. März 1933 den Eid für das Präsidentenamt ablegte, trat Garner sein neues Amt als Vizepräsident an. Am selben Tag legte er auch sein Abgeordnetenmandat nieder. Da er kraft seines Amtes nun auch Präsident des Senats war, war er einer von bisher nur zwei Personen, die am selben Tag den Vorsitz über beide Kongresskammern innehatten. Der andere war Schuyler Colfax am 4. März 1869, der ebenfalls vom Sprecher des Hauses in die Vizepräsidentschaft wechselte.

Mit der New-Deal-Politik des Präsidenten konnte sich Garner nie richtig anfreunden. Wie andere Vizepräsidenten zu jener Zeit gehörte Garner nicht zum engeren Machtzirkel des Präsidenten. Daher war er trotz seiner Stellung als zweithöchster Amtsträger in der Regierung de facto ohne nennenswerten politischen Einfluss; obgleich es Roosevelt zur Regel machte, den Vizepräsidenten an Sitzungen des Kabinetts regelmäßig teilnehmen zu lassen. Garners Ausspruch, der Posten des Vizepräsidenten sei nicht mehr wert als "a warm bucket of spit" ("ein Eimer warmer Spucke"), ist legendär. Neuere Nachforschungen legen allerdings nahe, dass der Ausspruch im Original "a bucket of piss" lautete ("ein Eimer voll Pisse").

Zur Präsidentschaftswahl 1936 wurde Garner erneut an Roosevelts Seite aufgestellt. Diese Wahl konnten die beiden mit 60,8 % der Stimmen sowie 523 von möglichen 531 Voten im Electoral College erdrutschartig für sich entscheiden. Am 20. Januar 1937 wurden beide erneut in ihr Amt eingeführt. Es war die erste Vereidigung zum Präsidenten und Vizepräsidenten, die an einem 20. Januar stattfand. Erst vier Jahre zuvor war das Datum durch den 20. Verfassungszusatz vom 4. März auf den 20. Januar nach der Wahl verlegt worden. Während Garners zweiter Amtsperiode kam es 1937 zum Bruch mit Präsident Roosevelt, zu dem er bisher trotz einiger Meinungsverschiedenheiten persönlich ein gutes Verhältnis hatte. Vor allem die von Roosevelt angestrebte Justizreform lehnte Garner wie auch seine konservativen Parteifreunde aus dem Süden und die Republikaner entschieden ab. Hintergrund war, dass der mehrheitlich mit konservativen Richtern, ernannt von den vorangehenden republikanischen Präsidenten, besetzte Supreme Court eine Reihe von Roosevelts New-Deal-Gesetzen als verfassungswidrig aufgehoben hatte. Der Präsident, bestärkt durch seinen klaren Wahlsieg von 1936 und die große demokratische Mehrheit im Kongress, schlug daraufhin eine Aufstockung der Richterzahl vor, um so das Stimmenverhältnis am Obersten Gericht zu beeinflussen, indem er selbst weitere Richter mit einer linksliberalen Weltanschauung ernennen könnte. Aufgrund des starken Widerstandes war diesem Plan aber kein Erfolg beschieden. Garner arbeitete im Hintergrund aktiv gegen den Präsidenten und half mit, den Vorschlag im Kongress scheitern zu lassen. Aus den Kongresswahlen 1938 gingen die oppositionellen Republikaner gestärkt hervor; von Seiten Roosevelts erfolgten keine weiteren Reformenankündigungen mehr.

Der endgültige Bruch mit dem Präsidenten wurde 1940 vollzogen. Aufgrund der gespannten weltpolitischen Lage (Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkrieges in Europa) entschloss sich Roosevelt, bei der Präsidentschaftswahl 1940 mit der bisherigen Tradition zu brechen und für eine dritte Amtszeit zu kandidieren. Viele Südstaaten-Demokraten, einschließlich Garner, lehnten dies ab. Daher entschloss sich der Vizepräsident zu einer parteiinternen Gegenkandidatur. Allerdings waren seine Chancen, auf dem demokratischen Nominierungsparteitag im Juli 1940 gegen den bei der Bevölkerung nach wie vor populären Roosevelt zu gewinnen, eher gering. Wie erwartet verlor Garner am Ende überaus deutlich: Lediglich 61 Delegierte sprachen sich für ihn als Präsidentschaftskandidaten aus; für Amtsinhaber Roosevelt votierten 946. Der konservative Demokrat Garner scheiterte vor allem daran, dass er seine Unterstützung wie schon 1932 kaum über die Südstaaten ausdehnen konnte; dazu wurde seine Kandidatur von den Gewerkschaftern in den Großstädten des Nordens offen bekämpft. So bezeichnete John L. Lewis, der Präsident des Gewerkschaftsverbandes CIO, Garner öffentlich als "arbeiterfeindlichen, poker-spielenden, whiskey-trinkenden, bösen alten Mann".

Präsident Roosevelt entschloss sich folgend, mit einem neuen Vizepräsidentschaftskandidaten in den Wahlkampf zu ziehen. Er wählte den linksliberalen Henry A. Wallace aus, der bis dato das Amt des Landwirtschaftsministers innehatte. Nach dem erneuten Wahlsieg Roosevelts übernahm Wallace die Vizepräsidentschaft turnusgemäß am 20. Januar 1941.

Spätere Lebensjahre
Mit dem Ende seiner Vizepräsidentschaft endete Garners politische Laufbahn und der inzwischen 71-jährige zog sich ins Privatleben nach Texas zurück. Trotz innenpolitischer Differenzen hatte er zu Roosevelts Nachfolger Harry S. Truman, Präsident von 1945 bis 1953, ein gutes persönliches Verhältnis. Die beiden Demokraten verstanden sich bereits während Garners Vizepräsidentschaft, als Truman Senator war, gut. Nach dem Tod seiner Frau 1948 lebte Garner meist zurückgezogen in Texas. Am 22. November 1963 erhielt er telefonische Glückwünsche zu seinem 95. Geburtstag von Präsident John F. Kennedy, nur Stunden bevor dieser in Dallas einem Attentat zum Opfer fiel. Garner starb am 7. November 1967 wenige Wochen vor seinem 99. Geburtstag. Er erreichte damit das bislang höchste Alter aller amerikanischen Vizepräsidenten. Er fand in Uvalde in Texas, wo er zuletzt gelebt hatte, auf dem Stadtfriedhof seine letzte Ruhe.
