Coronavirus Cruise Impact Friday Update
Monty Mathisen
As the coronavirus outbreak and associated scare continues, the latest news includes more cases, more countries turning away ships and crew welfare.
Princess announced an additional 41 cases of the coronavirus aboard the Diamond Princess, which continues to sit in Yokohama with guests quarantined aboard.
Costa China issued a statement underlining their support for the Chinese cruise market.
After being denied entry to any Japanese ports, Holland America Line was reported to have asked the U.S. State Department for assistance.
Guam, citing the Leon Guerrero-Tenorio Administration "respectfully denied a request today from the U.S. State Department to accept entry of a cruise line vessel whose passengers may be infected with the 2019 novel coronavirus."
"While we feel for every soul on board the MS Westerdam, our obligation is to protect the people of Guam. Though Guam is prepared to deal with the potential implications of the coronavirus, few jurisdictions can screen, quarantine, or treat 1,400 patients at one time," said Governor Leon Guerrero. "We respect that Guam has a duty to the nation we love, but that duty cannot jeopardize the health and safety of our people."
The World Dream is also still under quarantine, docked at the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal in Hong Kong with 1,800 guests aboard.
Quoted on Crew Center, one crew member aboard Costa Venezia said the company was treating crew well. "Free food, free wifi and even paid salary without the passengers onboard," the crew member said.
Another ship with an issue is the SuperStar Aquarius. Originally scheduled to return to Keelung on Friday Feb. 7, the ship is now returning to Taiwan as officials have made an exemption to their cruise call ban.

Casualties of the First World War commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission in the United States

Summary of Completed Work

The Cemeteries
Private Bert Lancelot Brennen
August 23, 2015 October 28, 2019 ~ Nick Metcalfe
This essay is about the single First World War casualty commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission in Oregon.
The new grave marker for Private Bert Brennen
Private Bert Brennen was an American of Irish descent—he hailed from Detroit, Michigan, where he was born on 24 March 1882. Little is known of his parents, wider family or his early life but by the time he enlisted in 1918 he was working as a motor mechanic in Barons, Alberta.[1] While living in Barons, he became engaged to Helena W. Comstock, a California-born chiropractor.[2]
Bert Brennen was not conscripted—he enlisted into the Canadian Expeditionary Force at Calgary, Alberta on 23 May 1918. He joined the 1st Depot Battalion, Alberta Regiment and was allocated the number 3207145. He had recently suffered from pneumonia and he was placed in medical category 'C3'—defined as being fit only for sedentary duties at home. Early in his training, on 10 June 1918, he was admitted to the military hospital in Calgary suffering from bronchitis. After treatment he was discharged on 15 June and was detached to the 13th Battalion, Canadian Garrison Regiment on 26 June.
The Canadian Garrison Regiment was formed in April 1918. A battalion was formed in each of the military districts—the 13th Battalion was established in Military District 13, which comprised Alberta and the Territory of Mackenzie.
Bert Brennan's lack of physical fitness meant that he was 'struck off strength' on 30 October 1918. He was one of over 16,000 men 'returned to Registrar's records', which meant that they remained liable to recall if required. In the period after the war, and prior to being formally discharged (which, for the majority, occurred in early 1919), these men were officially on leave of absence without pay.[3]
Soon after proceeding on leave, he and his fiancé left Barons for Portland, Oregon, to look after Helena Comstock's mother who had fallen ill. Later in the year Bert Brennen too fell ill, suffering another attack of pneumonia, almost certainly following a bout of 'flu. He died of 'acute dilation of the heart during an attack of broncho pneumonia ' on 18 December 1918 at his fiancé's home at 331 14th Street, Portland.[4]
He was buried in Lincoln Memorial Park (formerly Mount Scott Cemetery), Portland on the afternoon of 20 December. His grave is marked by a flat Commonwealth War Graves Commission marker, which was replaced in 2019 with a new marker showing the correct date of death. Also buried there is Seaman Donald Clement Long, Royal Navy, who died on 6 March 1943, aged 18.
Private Bert Brennen is commemorated on page 373 of the Canadian First World War Book of Remembrance (incorrectly spelled 'Brennan'); that page is displayed on 14 August.
The Canadian Book of Remembrance showing the entry for Private Bert Brennen
His fiancé's mother died a little over a year later and, Helena, who had continued to practice as a chiropractor in Portland, travelled to Vancouver later that year to live with her sister. The family later returned to Portland.
The death notice for Bert Brennen
1. (Back) His parents were L and Maggie Brennen, both of whom pre-deceased him. No further details are known. His full name is taken from the death notice published on page 16 of the Oregon Daily Journal on 19 December 1918 (see image gallery).
2. (Back) His fiancé was born Helena Waters in Cedarville, California on 19 November 1878. Having qualified as a chiropractor and practised in Portland Oregon from 1913. That year she married Clarence Bonaparte Comstock (6 February 1891, Auburn, California–22 March 1960, Fresno, California), a clerk with American Express Co. She divorced Comstock in 1917, alleging his desertion, and in December that year moved to Barons, Alberta.
3. (Back) Authorised by a 'Certificate of Leave of Absence'; Militia Form W 160.
4. (Back) His circumstances, i.e. being on leave of absence, resulted in a court of inquiry being convened on 7 March 1919 to examine the circumstances of his death. It was presided over by Major J L Gibson, 1st Depot Battalion, Alberta Regiment, and the details of his death were presented by his attending physician, Dr Joseph M. Short.

To be or not to be…too dominant
February 23, 2017 Louise Taylor	Leave a comment
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel; my quest is nearly at an end; I'm in lobbing distance of that ruddy great volcano in Lord of the Rings and the Precious is neatly in my hand.
Yes, I've just about finished another book!
This is the fourth book in my Victorian Vices series, which are not as intense as my Ruttingdon series. They're also set further back in the nineteenth century. This follows Lady Lavinia Beaumont, who was mentioned but never seen in the third Vices book, Spanking The Heiress. She's the fearless and demanding youngest sister of the hero of the third book, and as soon as I had written about her I knew that I needed to make her a heroine of a future book.
In this book Lady Lavinia meets her match in William Stewart, a young man with a mysterious past. The difference in class between them seems an impenetrable barrier, but Lavinia is used to getting her own way, and she wants William! William, however, is firm in his belief that Lavinia's behaviour is in need of correction and he finds himself the only person who can tame Lavinia's wild streak.
I've done all the heavy lifting. I need to go back and insert the spanking and sex scenes and do a general edit for consistency, pace, word choice etc and then it's off to the beta readers.
My problem, however, is with William. I think that he may not be dominant enough for some readers of this genre of fiction. His position in the class structure puts him beneath Lavinia, which creates tension in the book (or, at least, I hope it does!) but it also means that he cannot act in the ways that dominant heroes in these books seem to do. He can't just sweep her up in his arms, kick down the bedroom door, spank her backside red and ravish her. It's just not possible. He can't dictate her actions or chide her in public. He certainly can't punish her in public. Nobody would accept him behaving in any way that wasn't deferential and respectful. Well, Lavinia would, but she doesn't get to have her way in this, sadly!
My other problem, which is one that I've touched on before, is that if William did do these macho, alpha-male things, then I'd absolutely hate him. There is a line between dominant behaviour, agreed in advance by both parties, and outright abuse. I think that some authors blur the line between them. I also think that some authors accelerate over the line as if E L James' legal team was chasing them for copyright infringement on her trademark abusive dom stereotype.
I want to write books that I would like to read. I think that's a basic core belief for all writers, or if it's not, it bloody well should be. I hate books where the hero's dominance is so absolute that it borders on, or is in fact, abuse. I won't turn William into one of those heroes no matter what the disappointed reviewers will say on Amazon, but I am wary of not making him dominant enough to satisfy most readers of this genre.
Decisions, decisions.
I'm off to edit.

Perdita wootonae is een vliesvleugelig insect uit de familie Andrenidae. De wetenschappelijke naam van de soort is voor het eerst geldig gepubliceerd in 1898 door Cockerell.

Andrenidae


Sometimes, the original really is the best. We always seem to pine for what has gone before us, taking these traditional values rooted in the past and trying to recreate them all over again, to establish some kind of order and sense. Flooring in general has embraced a historical look in 2014, with customers eager to get back to basics amid an increasingly fragmented and unsure reality.
This year, the emphasis in the oldest type of flooring, wood, has been placed firmly on authenticity. Flooring is what grounds us, and taking an old-style approach to it is something that fosters equilibrium and calm. This gives us a real appreciation of both nature and where we've come from.
So, how has wood flooring embraced the past? For one thing, handscraped hardwood flooring is back in vogue. Hand-scraped floors date back to the 1800s, when finished surfaces were worked by hand with drawknives, which inevitably led to scrapes along the wood. Far from representing damage or even decay, these scrapes tell their own unique story, and are a portal of sorts to a bygone era.
The hand-scraped trend has been complemented by wide-width planks, mirroring a time when felled trees were more mature, and planks used for floors were accordingly thicker. This trend represents a tip of the hat to a time that was less hurried; an ode to a slow-paced, leisurely life. Following on from the hand-scraped theme, wood flooring has gone one step further by embracing a distressed style – nail holes, gouges, slices and saw marks can be added easily without going overboard, which gives the impression of a solid floor marked by decades of constant use. By adopting this trend, it is clear that homeowners are eschewing technology in favor of old-style skill and dedication.
Maple "Tundra" solid hardwood flooring.
It may not seem like much, but these trends make a real difference in today's world. When relaxation is tough to find, solace is found in all sorts of strange and surprising places. In our increasingly frantic, fast-paced world dominated by smartphones and a continual stream of information from various technological sources, these trends make sense. After all, it is in history that we find true comfort, and where we feel most grounded.

Celebrating Select Decorators
As always, the standard of entries was incredibly high but we hope you'll all agree, the panel chose four very worthy winners! We want to take this opportunity to again congratulate these decorators and take a closer look at their winning projects.
Interior project up to £1,499- Andrew Sheasby
For his award winning entry, Andrew completed the redecoration of a living room for a new customer following a recommendation. This project involved significant preparation work to both the walls and woodwork before the wallpaper application and paintwork.
"The workmanship, timekeeping and sheer professionalism was such a pleasure to encounter. Andrew has ideas which showed enormous artistic ability. The end product is now the envy of my friends and I am absolutely thrilled with it. I will certainly be contacting Andrew again to do more work for me in the future."- Homeowner
Interior project up to £1,499- Martin Connor
Our second winner in this category was Martin Connor who was approached about his winning job after the homeowners saw the high standard of the work he'd completed on a nearby new housing development. Thoroughly impressed by his quality finish, the homeowners tasked Martin with the renovation of their hall, stairs and landing and were not disappointed.
"Martin's attention to detail was meticulous, faultless. I would and have recommended Martin too anybody looking for a superior finish to any decorating they have done. Most satisfied ourselves."- Homeowner.
Interior project £1,500 - £2,999- Anthony Nolan
For his winning entry, Anthony was enlisted to apply the finishing touches to a project spanning almost 11 years to convert a former 1840s Parish Council Building and School. The homeowner had conducted thorough research into the building in order to do justice to this historical building and required a decorator capable of doing the same.
"This project deserved an experienced hand, time and attention to detail. His can-do attitude made what seemed to me to be a huge and complex job, a lot easier. It was a pleasure and a relief seeing my ideas come to life, and the quality of his workmanship, his knowledge of techniques, products and materials gave me reassurance and guaranteed a quality finish- all within budget too. I'm thrilled with the outcome."- Homeowner
Interior project over £3,000 and Grand Winner- Peter Smith
Peter Smith was awarded not only the prize for the 'Interior project over £3,000' but also the accolade of overall Grand Winner for his project on behalf of a long standing client. The homeowners had spent the last 3 years restoring a large, neglected Victorian and entrusted Peter to complete the decoration work in the dining room.
The room required some serious attention and Peter was involved from the offset. Working alongside builders and others tradesmen in order to prepare the room before moving onto Peter the extensive paintwork and wallpapering. Peter's highly professional approach throughout, left the homeowner delighted.
"He demonstrated a remarkable degree of patience and tolerance in that situation which would really test any trades person. Labour intensive doesn't begin to describe the process but again Peter just got on with the work without complaint. Peter is such a gentleman and nice person to have working in the house. To be honest he fits in very well and is so obliging in every way that you simply cannot fault his customer service."- Homeowner.
We would also like to congratulate Les Copestake and Robbie Dodds who were both 'highly commended' in the Exterior project category.

You Can Own This 1978 Corvette Daytona For $14,500
by Anthony Alaniz
Buying a classic car is difficult. A rare engine or unique design difference could command tens if not hundreds of thousands more than a standard make and model, which limits who can buy such a vehicle. There are ways around that expensive caveat, and one example is this 1978 Chevy Corvette Daytona.
Corvette Blogger stumbled upon this Fort Myers, Florida Craigslist ad, which shows the condition of Corvette Daytona in what looks like decent shape. The seller says his father bought the car five or six years ago as a project vehicle; however, he was unable to finish the restoration before he passed away. The car is said to be about 90 to 95 percent complete.
"Daytona" is in quotation marks above because this isn't an original Corvette Daytona race car. It's a base 25th anniversary Corvette with a custom IMSA Daytona wide body kit, which allegedly cost more than $20,000. The bright yellow exterior only accentuates the Corvette's unique body lines. It'll undoubtedly command attention at the next local car show.
Sadly, details about the condition of the car are scarce in the ad. However, the photos show a car that needs some love before being 100 percent again. The exterior paint has blemishes with cracks around the door handle visible. The interior looks tired but is in otherwise decent shape. It doesn't even have a radio.
The ad lists the Corvette Daytona in "excellent" condition with a clean title and an automatic transmission. The late 1970s may not have been the Corvette's greatest era, but the design is uniquely American and unabashedly aggressive. The car's actual mileage is not known as it's been sitting for the last two or three years, according to the ad.
Imagine the Corvette Daytona after a full restoration. It'd look sharp inside and out, but the exterior would draw the most attention. That'd be a great thing to see on the road.

Q: How to be sure that IE10/11/Edge do not use the "tile" icon for the address bar/tab icon? Is there a way to force Internet Explorer and Edge to use a particular favicon for the address bar/tab icon?
In general I'm using a different design (with a wider margin) for "live tile" (or whatever Microsoft calls them)... and for some reason these browsers keep choosing one of those images (defined in browserconfig.xml or one of the Apple icons... not sure)  to use in the address bar.
This is not what I want, because the one in the address bar/tab icon needs to have a smaller margin and transparent background.

Is there a safe and consistent method to say "use this icon for the address/tab bar icon", and "use this icon for the tile or whatever?"

EDIT: Another acceptable workaround for this would be if there was a way to specify that the images with a background/margin would ONLY be used for "tile" so that the others would be favicon(s) only? I don't fully understand what logic IE/Edge use to choose which icon to display.

A: The favicon package generated by RealFaviconGenerator behaves the way you want: In its tabs, Edge picks the classic "desktop" icon, while it uses the tile icons for sites added to home screen. More precisely, Edge is using the classic 32x32 PNG icon as the tab icon.
I advice you to first run the compatibility test with Edge on your machine to make sure it behaves as described above (I didn't have a Surface tablet or something like this to test it).
Full disclosure: I'm the author of RealFaviconGenerator.

Improve your overall mood: Happiness is one thing you can never get enough of, and curcumin plays a powerful role in getting and keeping your mood high. It's been shown to enhance brain chemicals such as noradrenalin and serotonin, and increase the production of dopamine, which dictates how we experience both pleasure and pain. That which lifts your mood also has a wide influence on everything from sleep and sexual behaviour to memory and learning.
In a 2006 study, the behavioural patterns and elevated cortisol levels in chronically stressed rats were reversed by chronic curcumin administration. It may even reverse or protect hippocampal neurons from further damage in response to chronic stress. Of course, that which lowers cortisol also helps to banish belly fat.
Protect against sleep deprivation: I've written in length on the importance of improving your sleep for hormonal health, not to mention body composition, appetite and aging. However in extenuating circumstances you may find yourself counting sheep well into the night. Scientists discovered that curcumin protected 72 hour sleep-deprived mice from the symptoms of sleep deprivation. Treatment with curcumin extract for five days significantly prevented impairment in locomotor activity, anxiety-like effects and oxidative damage.
Let it fight your (virus) battles: There are some viruses that can't be swayed by an abundance of vitamin C and D (you don't have to look farther than SARS to see this). However researchers have discovered that curcumin shows promise in fighting super-viruses.
Researchers from Virginia's National Center for Biodefense and Infectious Diseases found curcumin stopped the potentially deadly Rift Valley Fever virus from multiplying in infected cells. Lead researcher Aarthi Narayanan found it "may interfere with how the virus manipulates the human cell to stop the cell from responding to the infection." They are taking their findings and applying them to work in AIDs research.
It's no wonder that in India turmeric is revered as a holy powder. It's believed the spice can insert itself into cell membranes and make them more stable in such a way that increases their resistance to infection. Even if you're not a science buff, that's pretty cool.
Ease the pain of tendonitis: If you're plagued by the pain and stiffness of arthritis and tendinitis you're going to love this news: preliminary research shows that curcumin can lift the veil on these inflammatory conditions and may just have you retiring your icepacks. The results showed that introducing curcumin in the culture system inhibits NF-kB, a gene that switches inflammation response 'on' and promotes it further.
Even more promising is that curcumin achieves this without the side effects associated with many non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and related medications (like Tylenol and Aspirin). Good news for anyone suffering from this painful joint condition.
Protect against cancer: It's hard to find someone today who hasn't been affected by cancer, whether through a friend, a family member or even a personal battle. Curcumin has been shown to reduce chemo side effects, and even take preventative measures against other cancers.
New evidence from the University of Leicester reveals that curcumin may significantly reduce the painful side effects of bowel cancer in patients undergoing chemotherapy. Other studies show that it suppresses a cell that drives the growth of head and neck cancer and even slows prostate tumour growth. If you have a family history of cancer, adding curcumin to your diet is a must.
From herpes to HPV: Curcumin's virus-killing powers have been shown to extend to both herpes and HPV. In one study curcumin significantly inhibited the herpes simplex virus by interfering with the replication of the virus in laboratory settings. While dabbing this orange powder on your unsightly cold sore may not do the trick, consistent supplementation can shorten the duration and help prevent an outbreak - as a side note, resveratrol has shown promise as well, making this a power duo for sufferers.
Researchers in New Delhi also found curcumin prevented infection and inhibited the growth on the human papilloma virus (HPV), with the potential of preventing cervical cancer.
Bottom line: I recommend taking 400-800 mg of a curcumin supplement on an empty stomach (30 minutes before a meal or two hours after one). If you experience heartburn simply take it with food. If it tempts your tastebuds, add it to entrees as well. It's important to note that turmeric can reduce fertility, so if you are pregnant or trying, we recommend you speak with your doctor first before starting any supplementation.

Mayfield 50
All Team
In 1969, Tommy Davis, a lawyer and businessman with an entrepreneurial streak and a gregarious spirit, decided to start a firm that would invest in promising young companies. Tommy loved Stanford University—he'd worked closely with the school earlier in his career—and so he called his new firm Mayfield, after a once-thriving, but now-forgotten town that was annexed by Palo Alto, Stanford's home, decades earlier.
The name, for us, has become a reminder that lasting success requires vision, long-term thinking, and people determined to change the status quo. As our venture firm enters its 50th year, this is the lesson from Mayfield's original investments like Atari, Tandem, and Genentech, recent milestone companies like SolarCity, Marketo, Moat, and ServiceMax, our current breakout investments like Lyft, Poshmark and HashiCorp, and the 115-plus IPOs and 200-plus M&As along the way.
There wasn't much of a roadmap for venture capital when Tommy and his co-founder Wally Davis (no relation) started out. So they invented one: Mayfield was among the earliest investors to recognize the need for partners with a deep understanding of the computer industry; among the first to incubate companies at its office; and even put in place some of the structural mechanisms of modern venture capital.
In the process, they created a set of core values that are still in place today. Chief among them: an investment philosophy that focuses primarily on the entrepreneur. Tommy's motto was, "People make products, products don't make people," which is a saying we still use to anchor our investment decisions.
Mayfield, then as it is now, was an early stage investor, finding great founders with big ideas, and getting involved during or soon after the company formed. The early team learned quickly that finding smart, talented people with a passion for what they were doing—even if it was just an idea on a napkin—was the path with the highest likelihood of success.
Fault-tolerant computing sounded important, but there was only so much technical diligence they could do. But it was obvious that Jimmy Treybig, Tandem Computers' founder, was a world-class entrepreneur. Recombinant DNA was still an emerging science concept when Genentech was founded, but the Mayfield team knew Bob Swanson well and believed in him.
From the beginning, Mayfield took a team-based approach to investing. The entrepreneurs the original team backed worked closely with any partner that could help. We still take a team-based approach to investments, assigning more than one partner to each portfolio company.
As the pace of innovation increased in the 90s, the team added partners with deep knowledge in software, networking, and other areas. We believed so much in the power of software that we even started a side fund, Mayfield Software Partners, which allowed industry luminaries to serve as high-level advisors and benefit as individual investors. Mayfield learned how to groom multiple generations of firm leaders. Through the leadership of Gib Myers, the partners in the 80s inherited Tommy's desire to win, but never at all costs.
They learned it was critical to offer entrepreneurs more than capital and to be patient. This was passed on to the next generation of leaders in the 90s and early 2000s who offered a portfolio of services to startups before it became fashionable. The partners in the 90s also formalized another key Mayfield value: giving back to the community. They launched the Mayfield Fund Foundation which supports university programs, hospitals, and non-profit institutions of all types; they helped start the Entrepreneurs' Foundation, an organization that solicited money from startups and VCs and gave it to promising nonprofits; and they endowed the prestigious Mayfield Fellows program at Stanford, and later UC Berkeley, which gives 12 students each year the opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship and intern at a fast-growing startup. We still sponsor the program, which has had more than 200 participants, including the founders of Instagram and Gusto.
Today, as the fourth generation of stewards of Mayfield, our focus on people remains constant. Our motto, People First, is meant as a reminder. We still filter out founders who are just looking for a check, and take pride in developing deep relationships with our entrepreneurs, built on mutual trust. We limit our fund sizes so we can keep our focus on early stage companies and actively engage with the companies we invest in.
We do some things differently today. We're more likely to dress casually than wear a suit, for instance. And our current investment team is all ex-founders or operational execs with startup experience. But our values remain the same.
As we enter our 50th year, Mayfield stands strong. We've raised 15 U.S. early stage institutional funds, a later-stage select fund, two India funds, a partner firm for investing in China, and have $2.7 billion under management today. We've distributed billions of dollars in cash and stock to our limited partners since our founding.
Our gallery of legendary entrepreneurs keeps growing and we come to work every day excited to help them achieve their vision. Most importantly, we're proud that the core beliefs driving us today still draw from our roots—adopt a people-first mentality, embody a team spirit, and do right while doing well.
After all, people make products, but they also make VC firms.

Q: Efficiency of heat engines I have been taught that the an engine running on the Carnot's cycle has the maximum energy among the maximum efficiency, however I never found a convincing proof for it. Wherever I have put this question up, everyone just said pit it up against any engine and it will come out with a higher efficiency.
I would like to know if there is any way to prove mathematically that the Carnot's cycle has the maximum efficiency among any cycle?
Also, I have the belief that the second law of thermodynamics is a consequence of the fact that the Carnot's cycle has the maximum efficiency among any cycle. Because the Carnot's cycle has come before the second law of thermodynamics, I suppose that the former points to the latter. Is it actually true that the second law of thermodynamics comes from Carnot's theorem, and is it possible to prove that a Carnot's cycle would have the maximum efficiency for a particular amount of heat given in?

A: Assuming you mean maximum efficiency when you say maximum energy, then the proof is by contradiction. Essentially, in order for a heat engine to be more efficient than a Carnot engine it would have to violate the second law of thermodynamics. Rather than for me to give you that proof, you can see it for yourself in the following link:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot%27s_theorem_%28thermodynamics%29
Hope this helps.
