Property owners are responsible for maintaining their property, repairing defects and warning visitors about potential dangers. You may have a cause of action when their failure to do so results in your injury. Founded by Attorney George "Buck" Cire, Cire Law Firm analyzes your claim to determine who was at fault and the value of your case.
You expect to be safe when you enter an apartment building, a shopping mall, a sports arena, an entertainment complex, an office building, a public park or a municipal department. Your reasonable feelings of safety derive from the property owner's duties established under Texas laws and your rights to recover under the premises liability doctrine. Your rights apply whether you are conducting business, socializing or trespassing on the property, although to a lesser extent if you were uninvited at the time you were injured.
Slip and fall — A supermarket may be held liable for your slip and fall on a liquid that its staff failed to discover because it did not conduct reasonable inspections of the premises.
Dog attacks on Texas property — Texas Health and Safety Code, Title 10, Chapter 822 establishes liability of an owner of a dog that bit or attacked you or your child.
Swimming pool drowning — Violations of Houston residential swimming pool codes can result in drowning accidents, especially of young children, and indicate liability for the homeowner.
Security breaches — Broken locks, overgrown entryway bushes, dim lighting and tolerance of criminal activity give an assailant the opportunity to commit a violent assault. The landlord should be held responsible for these security breaches.
Worksite accident — After a job-related injury, your first means of monetary recovery is typically workers' compensation benefits — or Jones Act claims for oil field accidents — but you may also have a valid personal injury lawsuit separate from these options.
Explosion or fire — A worksite fire or explosion does not just put workers at risk, but it may also severely injure you as you walk onto the premises immediately prior to the incident.
Construction site pedestrian accident — If you are knocked on the head by falling debris or collapsed scaffolding while walking through a construction zone, you may have a cause of action against the contractor who failed to warn you of the hazards.
File a lawsuit against the property owner responsible for your premises liability accident. Call Cire Law Firm in Houston at 713.532.6206 or contact us online to schedule your free initial case evaluation with our lawyer. Our office serves clients throughout Harris and Montgomery counties.
We can visit you in your home or the hospital if your injuries make it difficult to come to our Houston office. We are available 24/7. Under our contingency fee arrangement, you owe us nothing unless we recover damages for you.

Fiat Chrysler Spends $30 Million on Self-Driving Test Site Near Detroit
Gene J. Puskar/AP
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is adding more muscle to its self-driving vehicle testing efforts.
The company will spend more than $30 million at a new testing and development facility at its Chelsea Proving Grounds west of Detroit. Testing begins this month at the facility, which will include a "dedicated autonomous highway-speed track, 35-acre safety-feature evaluation area and a high-tech command center," according to a company news release.
It's the second self-driving vehicle-related announcement the company has made in recent weeks. Last month, FCA said its Magneti Marelli components business would acquire a French startup — StartMeUp — focused on self-driving car software, for an undisclosed price.

The twin announcements follow the release in June of the company's five-year plan, in which it dedicated a presentation to the company's self-driving and connected vehicle efforts. That presentation highlighted the company's focus in developing the technology through partnerships, such as by supplying up to 62,000 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrids to Waymo's self-driving project by 2021.
Former CEO Sergio Marchionne, who died in July, had pushed back against critics for suggesting that the company lagged in the development of self-driving technology, saying last year that FCA's approach gives the company a chance to get a "technically correct solution at a commercially defensible price."
Announced today, FCA US has invested more than $30 million at its Chelsea Proving Grounds to further development and testing of autonomous vehicle and advanced safety technologies. Full details: https://t.co/YrDyCt1IHE pic.twitter.com/vlNJKN1hed
— FCA-North America (@FiatChrysler_NA) September 5, 2018
New CEO Mike Manley said in the news release that the Chelsea facility would "help support and enable" the rollout of the five-year plan.
"Our ability to test for autonomous and advanced safety technologies enables FCA to offer our customers the features they want across our brand portfolio," Manley said in the release.
The statement noted that the facility "will allow for testing of various levels of autonomy and enables the company to evaluate FCA vehicles using test protocols from third parties, such the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, U.S. New Car Assessment Program and European New Car Assessment Program, plus additional automatic electronic brake test simulations."
The test track will provide a range of environments, including obstacles, tunnels, varying road lighting conditions and interstate-style exit and entrance ramps, the release said.
FCA spokeswoman Dianna Gutierrez said the company anticipates that jobs will be created as a result of the facility, but it is not disclosing the numbers or types of positions. The company currently does not test at two other self-driving test facilities in the region — the American Center for Mobility or Mcity.
About 900 people work at the almost 4,000-acre Chelsea Proving Grounds, which opened in 1954, according to the release.

Biden, Decrying Trump's Failure to Protect US Elections from Foreign Interference, States Actions He Would Take
July 20, 2020 krubin
Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic candidate for President, issued a forceful statement decrying the Trump administration's failure to protect America's election and democracy from foreign interference, warning how the threat undermines America's sovereignty and describing what he would do – indeed, what a functioning President and government should do – immediately upon taking office (c) Karen Rubin/news-photos-features.com
Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic candidate for President, issued a forceful statement decrying the Trump administration's failure to protect America's election and democracy from foreign interference, warning how the threat undermines America's sovereignty and describing what he would do – indeed, what a functioning President and government should do – immediately upon taking office . Here is his statement:
Foreign interference in the U.S. electoral process represents an assault on the American people and their constitutional right to vote. When foreign states direct hackers, trolls, money launderers, and misinformation to subvert or cast doubt on our elections, they threaten America's sovereignty, democratic institutions, and national security. They undermine the vote and the voice of every U.S. citizen. They attack our very way of life.
The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence has concluded that the Kremlin's interference in past elections represented "only the latest installment in an increasingly brazen interference by the Kremlin on the citizens and democratic institutions of the United States." Despite the exposure of Russia's malign activities by the U.S. Intelligence Community, law enforcement agencies, and bipartisan Congressional committees, the Kremlin has not halted its efforts to interfere in our democracy. In Senate testimony on July 23 2019, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified that Russia was "absolutely intent on trying to interfere with our elections." And on March 27, 2020, the State Department held a briefing describing how Russia was recklessly spreading disinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic. Russia is not the only foreign actor seeking to interfere in our democracy. Increasingly, other states have shown an interest in copying Russia's tactics.
Congress passed with an overwhelming bipartisan majority the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act of 2017. The Trump administration has thus far failed to make adequate use of these authorities to counter and deter foreign election interference. Instead, President Trump has repeatedly denied that Russia interfered in our elections, most egregiously during a joint press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki on July 16, 2018.
In spite of President Trump's failure to act, America's adversaries must not misjudge the resolve of the American people to counter every effort by a foreign power to interfere in our democracy, whether by hacking voting systems and databases, laundering money into our political system, systematically spreading disinformation, or trying to sow doubt about the integrity of our elections.
That is why, today, I am putting the Kremlin and other foreign governments on notice. If elected president, I will treat foreign interference in our election as an adversarial act that significantly affects the relationship between the United States and the interfering nation's government. I will direct the U.S. Intelligence Community to report publicly and in a timely manner on any efforts by foreign governments that have interfered, or attempted to interfere, with U.S. elections. I will direct my administration to leverage all appropriate instruments of national power and make full use of my executive authority to impose substantial and lasting costs on state perpetrators. These costs could include financial-sector sanctions, asset freezes, cyber responses, and the exposure of corruption. A range of other actions could also be taken, depending on the nature of the attack. I will direct our response at a time and in a manner of our choosing.
In addition, I will take action where needed to stop attempts to interfere with U.S. elections before they can impact our democratic processes. In particular, I will direct and resource the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Department of State, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Foreign Interference Task Force to develop plans for disrupting foreign threats to our elections process. This will be done, wherever possible, in coordination with our allies and partners, so that we are isolating the regimes that seek to undermine democracies and civil liberties.
I have no desire to escalate tensions with Russia or any other country. I would prefer to focus the full energies of my administration on bringing the international community together to fight COVID-19 and the economic pain it has caused, and to tackle other pressing issues of international concern. But if any foreign power recklessly chooses to interfere in our democracy, I will not hesitate to respond as president to impose substantial and lasting costs.

Wip completed, union jack block used to make a zip pouch.
Here are a few works in progress, as if i needed to start any more new projects... Scrappy Hexie's can be found in the march/april issue of McCall's quilting, this quilt was designed by Bea Lee. I love that it is scrappy and i have hope after making a half dozen blocks that this will be my first success working with scrap fabric. I believe my success is due to the fact that each block is done in the similar colour way, this is the perfect project to do now and then as, all fabrics can find a home in this quilt design, i was surprised at how quickly the block came together and I had so much fun choosibg the fabrics for each block. Choosing fabric had become a little intimidating for me, so this quilt is giving me back my confidence with colour and for that i am grateful, Thank you Bea.
From now on, i am going to try to pick out a few fabrics, neutral background fabrics and then some fabrics that are similar in colour, like red-orange-pink or blue-greens, then whenever i want to try making a new quilt block i will have my go to fabrics already there and then, eventually i would have a quilt top, instead of what i am currently faced with, a drawer of mis-matching quilt blocks who remain orphans after failing many an audition on the design wall... what will i do with all these poor babies?
I have tested out a couple ways to make flying geese units, now i have found a way that is way more accurate and consistent for me personally and leaves no waste with the exception of dog ears, I am feeling triumphant at last, as i had had a heck of a timectrying to use the flippy corners method and i really hated that half of a full square was wasted. The method i used this time i have seen on pinterest and came across it again in the latest issue of McCall's Quilting, the best of American Quilting march/april 2015 issue..
Here are a few of my flowers that did well this year. I had good luck with some of the bulbs I had planted and less luck with some of the more expensive plants, ie. The Hydrangea's I bought, I have been feeding them the aluminum sulfate to help turn the flowers blue- with no luck, I had few blooms and my leaves have brown dots all over them. This is frustrating. I love Hydrangeas- they will forever remind me of my Grandmother, my husband says they remind him of old lady flowers, I think it is funny how I grow to have more and more regard for my grandmother- or, that is not right- I have always had the highest regard for her, but I recently have more and more in common with her in the last couple of years, I regret that I did not share her interests sooner, while she was still here. My Granny recycled and re-used and up-cycled long before it was cool. My Granny never wasted anything, she knew she would find a use for the blue rubber bands that are wrapped around green onions from the super market. Granny always had home made biscuits and preserves- hot, fresh out of the oven upon our arrival. Granny never turned away an extra dinner guest- she is know for saying "It's no trouble, I will throw in another spud." I love my Granny and I miss her deeply. I feel her close to me when I am sewing or knitting or making jam, I feel like we share this bit of creative space. I wish I had known how cool my Granny really was sooner.....I wish I had more of a chance to get to know the woman that she was rather than only knowing her for who she was to me- My Granny. It is odd to say, but I feel like I have a little visit with her when I go through the hope chest that belonged to her and her mother before her. I pull out some of the knitting she had on the go, some of the sweaters she had made, or I look at the quilt that is hand embroidered with hundreds of names, hers included and I wonder- What was this quilt made for? What does it commemorate? Are these the names of the people from Tynehead ? Is this a church quilt? My Grannies maiden name is embroidered on the quilt- which leads me to believe it was made before she was married- Which makes it over 83 years old at the least.
Hope they have better luck today- this will be the first game I miss- My mom just got back from Shanghai- so we will be having a little girl time, Oh, before I forget- She brought back this lovely Jasmine tea- that is suppose to be served in clear glass so that you can see this beautiful garden that the jasmine tea creates in your tea cup- It really looks like a garden with butterflies in a glass- I will try and take some pics... Shanghai sounds beautiful- I would love to go- Mom told me stories of their hospitality that sounds incredible- Everything is so well thought out- So many thoughtful touches, Wonderful people, she had a great time..
This is my happy place. I look forward to sharing bits of my story and process with you, I am very happy to have you visit and would love to hear from you. Please feel free to comment.


That's interesting because there was no mention of it in the news here.

When you are seriously injured in an auto accident, in addition to your regular monthly expenses such as rent, food, gas, and utilities, there will be medical expenses and other related expenses. Contacting an experienced auto accident attorney and filing a lawsuit can compensate you for your losses, but that could take months, even years. If injuries have left you unable to work, lack of income can bite you in the…budget. The good news is – you do not have to accept a low settlement offer, nor do you have to risk your credit. Contact Lawsuit Financial first; we may be able to provide lawsuit funding during your time of need.
Lawsuit funding is a non-recourse cash advance against a pending claim. The only criteria to be approved are 1. you must be represented by an attorney and 2. you must have a meritorious case. At Lawsuit Financial, we do not require an application fee or monthly payments, nor do we need a credit check or employment history. Furthermore, there is no risk to the plaintiff. Repayment is made once the case settles, but if the plaintiff loses, the repayment is completely waived.
Don't let the bills jeopardize your credit and don't forget back-to-school costs when assessing your budget. Here are a few often overlooked expenses at this time of year.
Back-to-School Supplies. This includes not pencils, pens, backpacks, but also books and new school clothes or uniforms.
Gas/Auto Maintenance. If you drive your kids to school, higher fuel bills will kick in, not to mention additional wear and tear on your vehicle.
Vaccinations/ Physical Exam. Most schools require kids to be up-to-date on shots. Physicals are usually required as well, especially for anyone playing a sport.
Sports/Activity Fees. Extracurricular activities are rarely free. You may need to purchase or rent music instruments or band uniforms, or sports uniform, shoes, and gear. There may be a participation fee.
Lunch Money. Unless your kids take their lunch to school, you will need money for their meal plan.
Before/After School Care. If you are able to return to work or disabled and need help taking care of your kids, you may need additional funds for childcare.
When that unexpected tragedy happens call an experienced attorney and before the bills pile up, call Lawsuit Financial. With our legal finance services, the litigation process will be much less stressful. Additionally, through our Client Resource Center we can help with budgeting tips and steps to take to ensure your future financial security. Call us for a free, no-obligation consultation today. You could be on your way to financial stability tomorrow.

HomeAll Posts...Arrested for Sexual Assault of a Child?...
Statutory rape refers to sexual relations involving someone below the "age of consent." People below the age of consent cannot legally consent to having sex. This means that sex with them, by definition, violates the law.
Statutory rape laws vary by state, with states setting the age of consent differently, as well as using different names to refer to this crime. Many states punish statutory rape under laws addressing sexual assault, rape, unlawful sexual intercourse or carnal knowledge of a child. There are very few federal laws dealing with statutory rape.
No Requirement of Force
Statutory rape differs from other types of rape, and from child molestation, in that the act would not be a crime if all participants were above the age of consent. Unlike "forcible rape," statutory rape can involve underage participants who willingly engage in sexual relations. However, because those under the age of consent cannot give legal consent to sex, the act is a crime whether or not force is involved. If the act involves force or coercion, many states prosecute the offender under the separate statutes punishing child molestation or aggravated rape.
Individuals cannot legally have sexual contact with an individual who is not of age. The legal age of consent may vary by state. For instance, the legal age of consent in Texas is 17. Some states have a legal age of consent as low as 14 while other states have a legal age of consent of 18.
An individual who has sexual contact with a person below the age of consent may face punishment. In general, sexual contact is considered any act intended to arouse another person. As such, an individual may be found guilty of statutory rape even if he or she did not have sexual intercourse with a minor.
Historically, statutory rape has been a "strict liability" offense, meaning that it does not matter whether what the perpetrator believed the victim was old enough to consent to sex. Some states now allow the defense that the perpetrator had reason to believe, and did believe, that the minor was above the age of consent. However, in many states this defense is not allowed, meaning that the act was a crime regardless of what the perpetrator believed the victims age to be. In states that do allow such a defense, it often cannot be used if the victim was particularly young, commonly under the age of 14.
Factors Affecting the Level of Offense Charges and Penalties
Laws punishing statutory rape often include a spectrum of offenses, ranging from misdemeanors to high level felonies. In general, two main factors affect the level of offense for an act of statutory rape: (1) the age of the victim; and (2) the age difference between victim and perpetrator. Other factors, including any prior sex offenses committed by the offender, whether drugs or alcohol were involved, and whether pregnancy resulted, can also affect the level of charge imposed.
Statutory rape is a felony offense, so an individual who is found guilty of the crime may face several years in prison. In Texas, for example, the crime is a second-degree felony, so an individual may be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison.
Punishment for statutory rape can include mandatory prison or jail sentences, probation, fines, and mandated treatment services. Many states require those convicted of statutory rape to register as sex offenders.
Exceptions to Statutory Rape Laws
Though statutory rape laws make it illegal for individuals to have sexual relationships with people below the age of consent, some exceptions do exist. Generally, these exceptions include:
The individuals are within a certain number of years of one another
The individuals dated before one was above the age of consent
The younger individual is within so many months of being at the age of consent
These rules may not apply in all circumstances, so individuals should contact a legal authority to learn more about their legal rights regarding relationships with minors.
Professionals Required to Report
Some states require certain classes of professionals to report knowledge or suspicion of statutory rape to authorities. Types of professionals required to report statutory rape often include teachers, medical professionals, public employees, and clergy, among others.

Ivory Coast or Côte dIvoire, officially the Republic of Côte dIvoire, is a country located in West Africa. Ivory Coasts political capital is Yamoussoukro, and its economic capital and its bordering countries are Guinea and Liberia in the west, Burkina Faso and Mali in the north, and Ghana in the east. The Gulf of Guinea is located south of Ivory Coast, prior to its colonization by Europeans, Ivory Coast was home to several states, including Gyaaman, the Kong Empire, and Baoulé. Two Anyi kingdoms, Indénié and Sanwi, attempted to retain their identity through the French colonial period. Ivory Coast became a protectorate of France in 1843–1844 and was formed into a French colony in 1893 amid the European scramble for Africa. Ivory Coast achieved independence in 1960, led by Félix Houphouët-Boigny, the country maintained close political and economic association with its West African neighbors while at the same time maintaining close ties to the West, especially France. Since the end of Houphouët-Boignys rule in 1993, Ivory Coast has experienced one coup détat, in 1999, the first took place between 2002 and 2007 and the second during 2010-2011.
As a result, in 2000, the adopted a new Constitution. Ivory Coast is a republic with an executive power invested in its President. Through the production of coffee and cocoa, the country was a powerhouse in West Africa during the 1960s and 1970s. Ivory Coast went through a crisis in the 1980s, contributing to a period of political and social turmoil. Changing into the 21st-century Ivorian economy is largely market-based and still heavily on agriculture. The official language is French, with indigenous languages widely used, including Baoulé, Dan, Anyin. In total there are around 78 languages spoken in Ivory Coast, popular religions include Islam and various indigenous religions. Originally and French merchant-explorers in the 15th and 16th centuries divided the west coast of Africa, very roughly, there was a Pepper Coast known as the Grain Coast, a Gold Coast, and a Slave Coast. Like those, the name Ivory Coast reflected the major trade occurred on that particular stretch of the coast. One can find the name Cote de Dents regularly used in older works and it was used in Ducketts Dictionnaire and by Nicolas Villault de Bellefond, for examples, although Antoine François Prévost used Côte dIvoire.
Laurent Gbagbo was the President of Côte dIvoire from 2000 until his arrest in April 2011. Gbagbo founded the Ivorian Popular Front in 1982 and ran unsuccessfully for President against Félix Houphouët-Boigny at the start of multi-party politics in 1990 and he won a seat in the National Assembly of Côte dIvoire in 1990. Gbagbo claimed victory after Robert Guéï, head of a military junta, the Ivorian people took to the streets, toppling Guéï. Gbagbo was installed as President, following the 2010 presidential election, Gbagbo challenged the vote count, alleging fraud. He called for the annulment of results from nine of the countrys regions, Alassane Ouattara was declared the winner and was recognized as such by election observers, the international community, the African Union, and the Economic Community of West African States. After a short period of conflict, Gbagbo was arrested by backers of Alassane Ouattara. In November 2011, he was extradited to the International Criminal Court, Laurent Gbagbo was born on 31 May 1945 in the village of Mama, near Gagnoa in the French West Africa.
He became a professor and an opponent of the regime of President Félix Houphouët-Boigny. He was imprisoned from 31 March 1971 to January 1973, in 1979, he obtained his doctorate at Paris Diderot University. In 1980, he became Director of the Institute of History, Art and he participated in a 1982 teachers strike as a member of the National Trade Union of Research and Higher Education. Gbagbo went into exile in France, during the 1982 strike, Gbagbo formed what would become the Ivorian Popular Front. The FPI vowed to restore modernization in the country, by building infrastructure, communication, water and he returned to Côte dIvoire on 13 September 1988 and at the FPIs constitutive congress, held on 19–20 November 1988, he was elected as the partys Secretary-General. Gbagbo said in July 2008 that he had received support from Blaise Compaoré, formerly the President of Burkina Faso. Following the introduction of multiparty politics in 1990, Gbagbo challenged Houphouët-Boigny in the October 1990 presidential election, Gbagbo contended that Houphouët-Boigny, who was either 85 or 90 years old, was not likely to survive a seventh five-year term.
West Africa, called Western Africa and the West of Africa, is the westernmost subregion of Africa. Early human settlers from northern Holocene societies arrived in West Africa around 12,000 B. C, sedentary farming began in, or around the fifth millennium B. C, as well as the domestication of cattle. By 1500 B. C, ironworking technology allowed an expansion of productivity. Northern tribes developed walled settlements and non-walled settlements that numbered at 400, in the forest region, Iron Age cultures began to flourish, and an inter-region trade began to appear. The desertification of the Sahara and the change of the coast cause trade with upper Mediterranean peoples to be seen. Local leather and gold contributed to the abundance of prosperity for many of the following empires. Also, based on the archaeology of city of Kumbi Saleh in modern-day Mauritania, three great kingdoms were identified in Bilad al-Sudan by the ninth century. They included Ghana and Kanem, the Sosso Empire sought to fill the void, but was defeated by the Mandinka forces of Sundiata Keita, founder of the new Mali Empire.
In the 15th century, the Songhai would form a new dominant state based on Gao, in the Songhai Empire, under the leadership of Sonni Ali, further east, Oyo arose as the dominant Yoruba state and the Aro Confederacy as a dominant Igbo state in modern-day Nigeria. The Kingdom of Nri was a West African medieval state in the present-day southeastern Nigeria, the Kingdom of Nri was unusual in the history of world government in that its leader exercised no military power over his subjects. The kingdom existed as a sphere of religious and political influence over a third of Igboland, the Eze Nri managed trade and diplomacy on behalf of the Nri people, and possessed divine authority in religious matters. The Oyo Empire was a Yoruba empire of what is today Western, established in the 15th century, the Oyo Empire grew to become one of the largest West African states. It rose through the organizational skills of the Yoruba, wealth gained from trade. The Benin Empire was an empire located in what is now southern Nigeria.


Hive was created to reveal the mystery of the beehive and the wonder of sunlit bees in the air, while providing a heartfelt, lyrical wake-up call to the dangers facing these miraculous insects and, by extension, humans. The images and the physical structure of the book came from my experience as a beekeeper. The poems are from Carol Ann Duffy's first collection of poems as Britain's poet laureate.
Edition of 30 numbered and signed copies. $5000. Hive box measures 6 ½" x 7" x 9 ½". Individual "pages" measure 5" x 7 ½" x ½". 10 pp.
Hive was produced over the course of two years and contains nine poems from The Bees by Carol Ann Duffy, which are letterpress printed on Hahnemühle's Ingre paper using Perpetua type cast by Michael & Winifred Bixler. The text is overprinted with a transparent honeycomb pattern. Master printer Kathy Kuehn provided technical assistance with printing.
The eight accompanying images of bees in flight are archival photographic pigment prints created by Linda Broadfoot and printed on Hahnemühle Photo Silk Baryta paper.
The poems and images are mounted on ten Russian birch plywood "pages," their foreedges coated with beeswax, and encased within a fabricated one-half scale maple Langstroth beehive box structure designed by the artist and constructed by master carpenter Robert Lacombe. The title and a bee image are engraved on the top of Hive's cover; mounted on the interior side is the title page.
On first reading these words of Duffy's from her book, The Bees, it was clear that her words about bees as a symbol of precious, endangered nature and my images of bees in flight would illuminate each other.
I can watch the bees from my bedroom window and have spent countless hours fascinated by them and the trails they make as they enter and leave the hive, swirling around it. Capturing this experience on film was a technical challenge. I solved it by creating an outdoor studio, using a black backdrop and utilizing the bright natural light of the mid-day sun, then opening the camera's shutter precisely long enough to capture the pattern of their flight. The eight photographs included were selected from thousands made over the course of three years.
After obtaining permission to use the nine poems strictly about bees from Duffy's The Bees, I chose materials, honed the Hive structure design, and printed the text while in residency at Penland School of Crafts in the winter of 2014.
The form of Hive is a half-scale replica of a Langstroth hive, invented in the 1850s, which allowed the beekeeper to look inside the hive without destroying the bees, their honeycomb or their young. The "pages" are modeled after the ten brood- and honey frames that hang inside the hive box. They hold poems and images conveying the sweetness and strength of honey and pollen and the vibrancy of young bees in their industrious work in and out of the hive. The beeswax-edged "pages" can be carefully removed and inspected, recreating the privilege of visiting inside the hive and sharing in the mysteries held within.
In February 2015, I had the honor of meeting Carol Ann Duffy, Britain's first woman poet laureate, at Emory University on the occasion of The Raymond Danowski Poetry Library Reading Series and presenting Hive to her. With this, our mutual love and concern for the bees came into relationship - the project had come full circle.


That is a tough call but if I was pressed I would say the art.
I read scientific papers on quasicrystals and related non repeating patterns. In my practice I investigate these patterns using diffracted light and orthographic projections in my installations, generating a formless formalism. I use laser cut acrylic, mirrored polycarbonate and SLS nylon 3D printing as materials.
3 Space, which was exhibited at the Chashama art space on 30th street in Manhattan.
Quasicrystals are not terrestrial. There are so many interesting aspects of non repeating patterns that I can't possibly list them all here which gives me a rich territory to keep generating my work from.

Q: If I draw 5 cards from a deck, how many ways can one get two cards from the same value card?
If I draw five cards from a deck of 51 cards, how many possible arrangements possible if i want 2 cards with the same value ie 2 jacks?

My method in solving this was to do the following:
(52)(3)(50C3)
Because the first card doesn't matter and the next one matters and the rest of the three don't matter at all.
I have a very strong feeling that I was overcounting and my method was flawed
i was wondering if I was making any mistakes?

A: Do you want exactly one pair, or just any hand with two cards equal
(so you allow two pairs or a three-of-a-kind etc.)
Of the $\binom{52}5$ poker hands, there are
$$13\times\binom{12}3\times 6\times 4^3$$
which are one pair hands. This is $13$ possible denominations for the pair,
$\binom{12}3$ for the singletons, $6=\binom42$ choices for the suits of the
pair, and $4^3$ choices for the suits of the singletons.
The number of hands with at least one repeated value is
$$\binom{52}5-\binom{13}5 4^5.$$

Examination Time Following Termination of Interference After an RCE Not Eligible for PTA: Mayo v. Iancu
Sangwoo Ahn
TAKEAWAY: For purposes of calculating patent term adjustment (PTA), a declaration of an interference is not tantamount to allowance, and the time period from termination of the interference to mailing of a Notice of Allowance is not included in PTA if a Request for Continued Examination (RCE) was previously filed.
In Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research v. Iancu, decided on September 16, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed a district court ruling on the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's (USPTO's) calculation of patent term adjustment (PTA). Specifically, the Federal Circuit held that the time period between termination of an interference and the date of mailing of a Notice of Allowance, where a Request for Continued Examination (RCE) has previously been filed, is not eligible for PTA.
The patent term statute entitles an applicant to PTA for each day the application is pending beyond three years from the effective filing date, referred to as "B Delay" (35 U.S.C. § 154(b)(1)(B)). However, B Delay is subject to several exclusions, including "any time consumed by continued examination of the application" requested by the applicant, i.e., by filing an RCE. Following the Federal Circuit's 2014 ruling in Novartis AG v. Lee, the USPTO clarified that the RCE time excluded from PTA calculations extends from the RCE filing date to the Notice of Allowance mailing date, and that the time period between allowance and issuance may add PTA. This serves as the backdrop to Mayo v. Iancu.
In 2009, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research filed a patent application covering antibodies useful for treating conditions characterized by immunosuppression. In the course of prosecution, Mayo filed an RCE in September 2011 along with remarks suggesting an interference with a patent. An interference was declared in February 2012 and a decision to award priority to Mayo's application became final in April 2014. The application was then returned to the examiner, who conducted a further prior art search and issued an Office Action rejecting the claims under double patenting. The examiner eventually withdrew the rejection and issued a Notice of Allowance in November 2014. The patent issued in March 2015 with 621 days of PTA, which did not include any added term for B delay.
Mayo argued that the time period after termination of the interference should have been included as B delay in the PTA calculation. Mayo argued that, because the USPTO's regulations require an application "otherwise be in condition for allowance" before an interference is declared, the declaration of interference was tantamount to a Notice of Allowance. Based on this rationale, Mayo contended that the time after the interference declaration should be eligible for PTA. The USPTO responded that a declaration of an interference does not close prosecution, as the USPTO's operating procedures allow examination to continue after termination of an interference.
The district court and the Federal Circuit both agreed with the USPTO. The Federal Circuit reasoned that the USPTO's regulations as a whole do not hold that a declaration of an interference amounts to allowance, because the regulations explicitly allow the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) to recommend further action by the examiner after remand. The Federal Circuit also sided with the USPTO's position that Mayo's proposed rule, which would have required a determination of when the USPTO deems the claims allowable, could lead to "an unduly burdensome, fact-intensive inquiry." Based on the foregoing, the Court held that the RCE time did not end until the USPTO mailed a Notice of Allowance.
This case reaffirms the Court's decision in Novartis that the "time consumed by continued examination" ends when a Notice of Allowance is mailed. The case also serves as a reminder that, in a procedural dispute, an appellant's position that requires "an unduly burdensome, fact-intensive inquiry" might be disfavored by the Court.

If you are a regular reader, you know that I have been working my way through Dr Manu Konchady's TMAP book in an effort to teach myself some Information Retrieval theory. This week, I talk about my experience implementing Google's PageRank algorithm in Java, as described in Chapter 6 of this book and the PageRank Wikipedia page. In the process, I also ended up developing a Sparse Matrix implementation in order to compute PageRank for real data collections, which I contributed back to the commons-math project.
The PageRank algorithm was originally proposed by Google's founders, and while it does form part of the core of what SEO types refer to as The Google Algorithm, the Algorithm is significantly more comprehensive and complex. My intent is not to reverse engineer this stuff, nor to hack it. I think the algorithm is interesting, and thought it would be worth figuring out how to code this up in Java.
The PageRank algorithm is based on the citation model (hence the title of this post), ie, if a scholarly paper is considered to be of interest, other scholarly papers cite it as a reference. Similarly, a page with good information is linked to by other pages on the web. The PageRank of a page is the sum of normalized PageRanks of pages that point to it. If a page links out to more than one page, its contribution to the target page's PageRank is its PageRank divided by the number of pages it links out to. Obviously, this is kind of a chicken and egg problem, so it needs to be solved in a recursive way.
This would translate to a set of linear equations, and could thus be re-written as a recursive matrix equation. As much as I would like to say that I arrived at this epiphany all by myself, I really just worked backwards from the formula on the Wikipedia page.
R  = a column vector of size N, containing the ranks of pages in the collection.
where page(i) links to page(j), and 0 for all other (i,j).
R0 = the initial guess for the page ranks, all set to 1/N.
// a link or not from page i to j.
Here is the JUnit code to call the class. We set up the damping factor and the convergence threshold. We use the picture of the graph on the Wikipedia PageRank article as our initial dataset. The dataset is represented as a comma-delimited pairs of linked page ids.
"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7"
You may have noticed that I am using calls to SparseRealMatrixImpl, which does not exist in the commons-math codebase at the time of this writing. The reason I implemented the SparseRealMatrixImpl was because when I try to run the algorithm against a real interlinked data collection of about 6000+ documents, I would consistently get an Out Of Memory Exception with the code that used a RealMatrixImpl (which uses a two dimensional double array as its backing store).
The SparseRealMatrixImpl subclasses RealMatrixImpl, but uses a Map<Point,Double> as its backing store. The Point class is a simple struct type data holder private class that encapsulates the row and column number for the data element. Only non-zero matrix elements are actually stored in the Map. This works out because the largest matrix (A) contains mostly zeros, ie comparatively few pages are actually linked. The patch is available here.
could you please tell me if there is any lucene class that implements document ranking? if so will i be able to get the source code? i need it urgently..
Hi Shilpa, I take it you want to implement a custom document ranking? If so, you may want to look at Similarity and extend it. Lucene is an open source project, so you should be able to download the source for it from the lucene site.
I was working on page rank from so many days , and i was about to give up . Suddenly i found you on web and Your contribution helped me a lot . You saved my grade and my future !!!
Hi Ved, thanks for the kind words, my contribution here is really the java code based on Dr Konchady's TMAP book.
#Did u have any idea relating on the above mention tasks. I will be very thankful, if u share me some idea about these.
Hi Puru, you may want to check out some NLP libraries like Lingpipe (free for non-commercial use) or OpenNLP or NLTK (if you like Python) - I believe all of them have tools that detect noun, verb, adjectives, noun phrases, etc. For food dishes, not sure but you can probably check out foodnetwork.com, I believe their pages are very richly annotated, so you can mine that for information. For sentiment analysis, you probably want to really understand the domain in which you are going to work in - positive/negative terms vary greatly across domains.


Graduate job hunters may be able to secure positions at retail outlet Poundland in the coming year, with the company expecting to open a store a week in 2010.
Speaking to Reuters, chief executive Jim McCarthy revealed that the company was currently celebrating strong sales over the Christmas period.
During the five-week period that terminated on January 3rd, Poundland reaped the rewards of festive spending by witnessing a rise in sales of 4.4 per cent in comparison to the same period 12 months earlier.
Mr McCarthy highlighted that the increase in stores will still take place, despite expectations that spending will slump in the coming year as customers get to grips with rising taxes and cutting debt.
He told the news agency: "We'll probably add another 50 [shops] next [fiscal] year."
Sainsbury's graduate recruitment manager Jo Gidley remarked last year that rising numbers of university leavers are considering careers in the retail sector.
A chief reason noted for this field being an attractive proposition was the high level of promotion opportunities.

A cell phone ring tone is being used as a tool of protest by the opposition to Philippines President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The protesters are calling for her resignation because the recording used in the ring tone sounds like President Arroyo discussing the fixing of the presidential election. The example I heard on BBC radio had a hip hop beat with a woman's voice saying, "Hello Garci". As if talking with senior Philippines election official Virgilio Garcillano.
Imagine a world where we make our own media by recording what ever we hear with our cellphones and play the audio recordings back like voice mail or convert them into ring tones to "broadcast" to your immediate vicinity. We might huddle around our friends cell phones to get the latest news. Or maybe we'd hear it from a distance in the next cubicle over. After hearing about this story on BBC radio I kept imagining what it would be like if a large crowd played the same protest ring tone all at once. I'm not sure if that would be musical or unbearable noise. Whichever I say, Bring on the noise!
Whether or not the source audio is real, this is an amazing example of a swarm advocacy. This is media broadcast by the people!

G8 Radio, a radical Internet radio station, has popped up to cover the G8 protest in Scotland.
Tonight at the Chapel Hill Blogger meetup I'm going to lead a discussion on podcasting. I really love this group. They are smart as hell and are wonderful people. Should be a blast! Look back here for more notes and a pdf file of the slides. Join us at Tyler's/Speakeasy, 6pm in Carrboro, NC.
I'm going to Live 8 Philly!
Recently David Sifry, Technorati's Founder & CEO, announced that 50 bloggers will be given backstage passes to the Live 8 concerts organized by Bob Geldof. To get a chance to go you have some interesting requirements. This promotional campaign is really novel. It could demonstrate the swarm power of bloggers and podcasters. The power of individuals to organize around a common cause and create lasting positive change.
As the One campaign video says, "We're not asking you for your money, we're asking for your voice." Is this a real example of network centric advocacy on a massive scale or a sophisticated marketing campaign hustle? Or both? Either way it boils down to trust. I suspend my skepticism and give this action my trust.

I love Apple computer hardware and software, but Apple is poised to be more of a media gate keeper than an independent media enabler. How will they reconcile this contradiction? How can we reconcile this contradiction?
With the introduction of podcasting (more precisely PODCATCHING) abilities in iTunes 4.9 via the iTunes store Apple sets themselves at the nexus of content and profit with a method to CHARGE people for podcasts. Now this may be great for Adam Curry and Todd Maffin but will it truly be a fair "market" for all podcasters? How can podcasters get as much buzz as Adam Curry? Could I get my face (brand) on the front of the main Apple website? Will Apple help us be that famous? What kind of power and influence do I have to bring to the table to play with Apple the media mogul? Would I even want to go through all the crap to get there? What will my mind and soul look like after that journey?
Just having the ability to sell podcasts via iTunes doesn't mean you'll have enough hype to make money. (Making money, meaning you earn more than you spend.) Fact is there are already several 500 pound gorillas in the room with Apple, music, and Podcasting. This could prevent me or any other Podcaster from getting the world wide attention, via the iTunes store, that would allow us to become 500 pound gorillas ourselves. Apple could help us obtain the weight and voice to change our lives and the world. How are you going to act with social responsibility Apple?!
As for me, I rather be famous for 15 people, keep my Podcasts free, and work to amplify the voices of people ignored by Apple and iTunes. I plan on using the tools Apple makes to keep them honest! That's how I'm going to reconcile my contradiction.
Wow! I wish I had a picture of that! Anyone grab one?

This report reveals the depth of senior housing's interest in active adult, the execution of the product and how these factors are re-writing the care continuum.
After a decade of whispers, trials, pilots and promise, virtual reality now seems on the precipice of a boom in senior housing and senior care settings.
The impending wave of baby boomers into the senior population will bring more than just massive numbers of potential residents. This isn't merely a question of bulk. It's a question of breadth, with a wider range of seniors becoming inherently trickier to serve.

'You have to be Albert Einstein to figure it out': Trump targets the Navy's new aircraft catapult
Featuring Jerry Hendrix
Journalist Dan Lamothe
President Trump set his sights on the Navy in a new interview, calling the service's new electromagnetic catapult to launch planes off aircraft carriers "no good" and saying that the Navy needs to go back to "goddamned steam," the method used for decades.
The comments, published Thursday by Time magazine, came during an interview Monday evening at the White House. Trump recounted a conversation he had March 2 while visiting the yet-to-be-commissioned aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford in Newport News, Va., and said that he was told the catapult on it does not have enough power.
"It sounded bad to me. Digital. They have digital. What is digital? And it's very complicated, you have to be Albert Einstein to figure it out," Trump said, according to Time.

Q: Show that differentiation $D = \frac d{dt}$ is a linear operator on the 3-dimensional space of 'quasi-polynomials' $e^t (a_2t^2 + a_1t + a_0)$. Show that differentiation $D = \frac d{dt}$ is a linear operator on the 3-dimensional space of 'quasi-polynomials' $e^t (a_2t^2 + a_1t + a_0)$.
Im a little unsure how to approach this:
Using $(e^t, te^t, t^2e^t)$ as a basis, write out the corresponding matrix.

A: Let $V$ be the space of these "quasi polynomials". That $D$ is linear you know already. Therefore we only have to prove $D(V)\subset V$. To this end it suffices to look at
$${d\over dt}\bigl(t^n e^t\bigr)= (t^n + nt^{n-1}) e^t\ .$$

A: Let $f(t;a_0,a_1,a_2)=e^t (a_2t^ 2 + a_1t + a_0)$ and $f(t;b_0,b_1,b_2)=e^t (b_2t^ 2 + b_1t + b_0)$ therefore $$\dfrac{d}{dt}(C_1f(t;a_0,a_1,a_2)+C_2f(t;b_0,b_1,b_2)){=\dfrac{d}{dt}f(t;C_1a_0+C_2b_0,C_1a_1+C_2b_1,C_1a_2+C_2b_2)\\=f(t;C_1a_0+C_2b_0,C_1a_1+C_2b_1,C_1a_2+C_2b_2)+f(t;0,2C_1a_2+2C_2b_2,C_1a_1+C_2b_1)\\=C_1(f(t;a_0,a_1,a_2)+f(t;0,2a_2,a_1))+C_2(f(t;b_0,b_1,b_2)+f(t;0,2b_2,b_1))\\=C_1\dfrac{d}{dt}f(t;a_0,a_1,a_2)+C_2\dfrac{d}{dt}f(t;b_0,b_1,b_2)}$$which completes our proof. To represent it in a matrix form we need to find out what happens on the basis under this operator. Let's define $$e_1=f(t;1,0,0)\\e_2=f(t;0,1,0)\\e_3=f(t;0,0,1)$$therefore $$Le_1=e_1\\Le_2=e_1+e_2\\Le_3=e_3+2e_2$$therefore the matrix is $$L=\begin{bmatrix}1&1&0\\0&1&2\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}$$

A: If $f$ and $g$ are differentiable functions and $ \alpha \in \mathbb R$, then the elementary rules are: $f+g$ and $ \alpha f$ are differentiable and
$(f+g)'=f'+g'$ and $(\alpha f)'= \alpha f'$.
Can you now show that $d$ is linear ?


What you usually notice in a person? It is the way he looks, it is the very manner how he presents himself and carries his stature differently. It is how he depicts himself to be, the inner self comes second, it is always secondary because the one thing we observe is the entire outward appearance. Presentation is always cardinal of all elements, it makes a difference. A dish no matter how tasty and delicious it is, if it does not give a presentable look, it would destroy the impression and won't appeal to the eyes.
It is a natural spectacle that messy things give out an outrageous and weird look. They don't develop a healthy impression. This also happens in the field of art and design where presentation is as mandatory as a soul to a body, as shadow for a thirsty, as fragrance for a bud and as air for breathing.
Presentation is like nut and bolt, it helps maintaining and developing good communicative gestures. When a document, file, product design, pamphlet or any such thing is made, all you need is to present it in a beautiful way. 'Beauty' is binding ingredient of presentation. It gives vent to a skillful and proficient perspective of the maker.
Presentation consists of thought, meaning & notion behind it, that makes it stunning & schemes for a nice appeal of the design. Today I am unfolding before you 20 awesome free premium mockups & design templates of August 2014.
Everything worth having is either costly or out of reach but you would be stunned to find these stupendous mockups & design templates for free. Grab them for your current or upcoming projects. They will for sure give you a good turn. Have a stare guys. Do revert us what you think about it.
