CEF Board members, teachers, administrators, and representatives of organizations who received grants for the 2019-20 school year.
Now in its 15th year of existence, the Chatham Education Foundation (CEF), is offering financial help to 22 projects for the 2019-20 Chatham public school year. The projects, from kindergarten through high school, ranging across many academic areas provide $2,500 to $181, for a total of $25,194. On January 17th CEF Board members met in the Elementary School's Conference Room with grant recipients to congratulate them.
Established in 2002, the CEF's mission is to raise and distribute private dollars for innovative and inspiring projects not funded by the regular school budget. Its board consists of community members, school staff and two students. The Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation oversees its funds and administrative activities.
"We have never had such ample funding to be able assist so many excellent projects—both large and small. 2019-20 will be a truly exciting year," exclaimed Judy Staber, CEF Board President.
Nine grants have been awarded to high school projects. For a third year the popular Artemis Robotics program teaches all aspects of designing, building, programing and competing with robots—including the making of a business plan and raising of funds. The year culminates in entering two competitions with the ultimate goal of reaching the World competition in Detroit. Also funded will be a trip for 25 advanced Spanish-language students to attend the Repertorio Spanish Theater in New York City, followed by an authentic Hispanic dinner.
Other high school grants will enable teacher Jeffery Artist, with student help, to revive the publishing of the high school art and literary magazine, Peloris; literary scholar Jim Kraft will once more expose advanced English students to novels by Edith Wharton and Henry James, both of whom spent considerable time in the Berkshires; and talented young singers participating in the New York State School Music Association competitions and festival will receive training from foremost local musicians. Smaller grants in the sciences provide for the an updated cleaning of the popular high school vivarium and the acquisition of several new frogs whose activities have fascinated students; science teacher Patricia Songayllo, a dedicated bird watcher, will be helped to buy bird food and binoculars, and enroll many new students in the Cornell Lab Ornithology Project Feeder Watch. Two other science offerings will help students to more fully understand –and experience—creatures around us. A Wildlife lecture will expose all science students to the ecology, anatomy and structure of birds of prey and certain reptiles; another small grant provides written materials and film clips to familiarize advanced science students with the circumstances and survival problems of different breeds of wolf.
All current seventh graders in the Middle School will once more be exposed to history teacher William Richard's Living History program. The program experience includes complementary Revolutionary War units across all subject areas —e.g, seventh grade Science classes focus on war related challenges like gangrene or amputation, English classes include diary entries from Abigail Adams, Molly Pitcher and Benjamin Franklin. And all Seventh Graders will learn what life was like in the 17th and 18th Century through reenactments with the 2nd New York Reenactment Regiment at the Austerlitz Historical Society grounds; and the Regiment hopes to march in Chatham's Memorial Day parade. Another project, a six week After School Film Club, will enable twenty seventh and eighth graders to learn about filmmaking by helping to write, act, film and promote a film that will be shared with the entire Middle School. Another focuses on reading; all Middle School students will meet and have discussions with Award winning children's book writer, Gordon Korman, after having read his novel, Restart.
In the Elementary School the Flying Deer Nature Center will be conducting an ambitious learning experience for all fourth graders by combining the reading of a novel My Side of the Mountain, which involves a young man's trials in the wilderness, with trips to the Nature Center's woods for actual lessons in relevant survival tactics relating to shelter-building, fire-making and foraging. In its fourth year of construction, another Flying Deer project for fourth graders, an Iroquois longhouse on school property, CEF will help fund the acquisition of bark shingles to complete the structure's building.
An Afterschool program developed and provided by the Art School of Columbia County for the last four years will once more provide a wonderful mix of poetry, discussion and artistic adventures for about 150 kindergarteners through fifth graders in the Elementary School library during the spring of 2019. In a relaxed environment the children read poems, discuss them and their authors and may write their own poetry. They then go on to use a variety of implements —magic markers, paints, items like leaves or flowers from nature—to make pictures inspired by the poems and discussion.
To learn more about the CEF, to apply for a grant for next year or to make a donation, visit the Chatham Education Foundation's website.

Q: How to use a dynamic forms names in a class (C#.Net) I had long time developing windows applications using VB.NET and one of thing that I was always use is:
Class (Test) and inside it there are some subs like the following:
VB.NET Code
 Friend Sub FLoadKeyLock(ByVal FRMNAME As Object)
        FRMNAME.Button3.Enabled = true;
        FRMNAME.Button4.Enabled = true;
        FRMNAME.Button1.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button2.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button5.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button6.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button7.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button8.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button9.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button10.Enabled = false;
 End Sub

Where FRMNAME refers to forms name that I send from different forms and I use (me) keyword to send current form name to apply that sub.
That was totally works fine in VB.NET but I cannot use it the same way in C#.NET.
C#.NET Code
 internal void FLoadKeyLock (Form FRMNAME)
    {
        FRMNAME.Button3.Enabled = true;
        FRMNAME.Button4.Enabled = true;
        FRMNAME.Button1.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button2.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button5.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button6.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button7.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button8.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button9.Enabled = false;
        FRMNAME.Button10.Enabled = false;
    }

The Error is: System.Windows.Forms.Form' does not contain a definition for 'Button3' and no extension method 'Button3' accepting a first argument of type
And same error for all used buttons.
So I have two questions:
1 - How to use such a function in C#.NET?
2 - Why it's not working the same way as VB.NET?

A: As @Maarten said.
dynamic has solved my problem
internal void FLoadKeyLock (dynamic FRMNAME)
{
    FRMNAME.Button3.Enabled = true;
    FRMNAME.Button4.Enabled = true;
    FRMNAME.Button1.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button2.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button5.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button6.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button7.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button8.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button9.Enabled = false;
    FRMNAME.Button10.Enabled = false;
}

The statement 'you can be whoever you want to be...Prime-Minister/President, Secretary General, even an Artist' - often goes unexamined although often said to encourage the young.
For ten years General Secretary Kofi Annan was the figure-head of the UN –functioning as a borderless diplomat. His tenure suggests that a branded-icon is often a sign of collective consensus created by multiple means including education, awards, investitures and trophies.
a) The familiar motif known as Paint-by-number paintings.
b) A confidence to interact with art.
c) Imaginative intricacy is often simple when analyzed.
d) Model diplomacy for hope and change is often rewarded.
This series continues a general artistic approach that engages accessible and familiar motifs from popular culture along with my conceptual interests. These works imply an invitation to the viewer to "fill-in" his/her choice and picture the vibrant possibilities of color. They are strange but familiar diagrams that challenge the viewer to envision completion and change with his/her imagination.
Nobel speech from 2001. "...Today's real borders are not between nations, but between powerful and powerless, free and fettered, privileged and humiliated. Today, no walls can separate humanitarian or human rights crises in one part of the world from national security crises in another. Scientists tell us that the world of nature is so small and interdependent that a butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon rainforest can generate a violent storm on the other side of the earth. This principle is known as the "Butterfly Effect." Today, we realize, perhaps more than ever, that the world of human activity also has its own "Butterfly Effect" – for better or for worse. Ladies and Gentlemen, We have entered the third millennium through a gate of fire...."

Lafayette celebrates 125th birthday with nod to mining, ag past

Lafayette High School, at 101 E. Baseline Road, was built in 1925. Now it is Pioneer Elementary.

Jim Hutchison holds an 1890 book of minutes of the Lafayette City Council as he stands outside the historic Mary Miller Theater in Lafayette on Friday.
By John Aguilar and Times-Call |
It's not every person who can claim he met the founder of a city that turns 125 years old this year. But Jim Hutchison can.
The 93-year-old Lafayette native was born the same year Mary Miller — who launched the city in 1889 out of the plains east of Louisville — died. They apparently crossed paths sometime in 1921 when someone told Miller "to come see the new baby."
Lafayette was a much different place back then, Hutchison said, with dirt roads, makeshift streetlights consisting of light bulbs suspended from wires, and a heck of a lot fewer folks around.
"I guess it isn't our town anymore," he said last week, standing in front of the Mary Miller Theater on East Simpson Street. "We share it with a lot of other people."
About 27,000, to be exact. And the city is embarking on an effort this year to make sure those residents know that 2014 is Lafayette's quasquicentennial — or 125th birthday — celebration.
Today marks the anniversary of the day in 1889 that Miller submitted incorporation papers to Boulder County. Nine months later, in November, the city passed its first ordinance and officially became a municipality by its own right.
"We'll be doing things throughout the year to raise awareness about the city's history," Lafayette spokeswoman Debbie Wilmot said.
Miller and her husband, Lafayette Miller, arrived in eastern Boulder County from Iowa in 1868 and purchased 160 acres for $1.25 an acre.
They ran the farm for several years before moving to Boulder, where Lafayette Miller ran a butcher shop and served as town trustee. Mary Miller did a stint on the school board.
In 1878, Lafayette Miller suddenly died, and his widow, with six small children, moved back to the farm. She did more than an able job managing it, watching it grow to 1,280 acres and yield oats, corn, hay, wheat, grapes, currents, gooseberries and raspberries. Miller kept more than 100 head of horse and cattle and a drift of pigs on the land.
Six years after her husband's death, coal was found on the Miller farm. Soon after, the first mines were sunk in the area.
As the industry took off and Miller began receiving royalties from the mining operations, she platted 150 acres for the original town site of Lafayette, named after her late husband. The first houses appeared in 1888 in the area east of Public Road, between Emma Street and Baseline Road.
"This is Old Town," Hutchison said, gesturing to a quiet yet fiercely windy Simpson Street, which a few decades ago bustled with grocery stores and restaurants.
But no saloons. Hutchison said Miller was famous for her dislike of liquor and she included in the deed of every property she owned a clause that outlawed the sale or consumption of alcohol. To find Odd13 Brewing Co. across Simpson Street from where she donated a lot for a congregational church would have driven her insane, Hutchison said.
"She'd definitely be out here with her ax," he said.
In April 1889, voters narrowly approved incorporation — 31 to 28 — and Miller's son became Lafayette's first mayor.
Miller subdivided more of her land for new neighborhoods and by 1900 had become owner of Lafayette Bank — likely the only woman in the country at that time to serve as president of a bank.
For the next 20 years, Miller sided with striking miners by buying groceries for out-of-work families and deferring their mortgage payments. Her generosity eventually cost her the bank and her life savings.
She died in 1921, at the age of 79.
"It was remarkable what she did at a time when women didn't have very much of a voice," Lafayette Historic Preservation Board Chairwoman Rachel Schwendler said. "She had a business side and a soft side."
Schwendler said Lafayette needs to better recognize what Miller and others established here and guard against the erosion of that history. The city could take a stronger stance against demolition of older homes and place conditions on what can come in and take their place.
She said there have been six demolitions of old homes in the last 18 months.
"We've built up all this incredible diversity over 125 years," she said. "We'd like to see the city really kind of address infill better — perhaps requirements for new construction that would make it compatible with the existing Old Town properties."

A screencast is a digital video recording that captures actions taking place on a computer desktop, often containing voice-over narration.
Camtasia is an excellent program for this. UBC owns a license for students to download the Camtasia software for free. Simply go to Connect and find the download link under the "Resources" tab.
When saving a new screen recording, save it as a higher quality clip by selecting "1080p" (rather than just "Movie") in the saving options. This allows for a higher quality final product with more visual clarity.
To ensure that a screen clipping is of high quality use a large computer monitor; the resulting screenshot will be higher resolution. If you do not have access to larger computer monitors, consider using one of the large Macs in the LFS Learning Centre.
Snagit is screen capture software that can also be used to take and edit screen clips. UBC also has a license for students to download this software for free. Again, find the link in Connect under the "Resources" tab.
Watch this video as an example of screen-casting. The actual screen-casting starts at 1:30 in the video.

The Philippine automotive industry has set another record performance in April with vehicle sales hitting 27,697 units, up 30 percent from year-ago level.
This brought total vehicle sales in the first four months of the year to 104,176 units, reflecting growth of 23.8 percent, based on data from the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Inc. (Campi) and the Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA).
"April sales was beyond expectation compared to sales trend based on seasonality. Given that we offer attractive promotions and the arrival of new models, we project sustained growth in the second quarter," said Campi president Rommel Gutierrez.
Based on the joint report of Campi and TMA, both the passenger car and commercial vehicle segments posted significant double-digit growths in the first four months. This was due mainly to the strong demand for new models supplemented by aggressive summer promotions and other marketing support.
Sales of passenger cars rose 19 percent to 39,716 units, while the commercial vehicle segment posted a 27-percent sales growth to 64,460 units in January to April.
In the commercial vehicle segment, all categories managed to surpass their previous sales records in April, data showed.
Data from Campi and TMA showed that Category 1 (Asia Utility Vehicles or AUV) saw a 28-percent rise with 4,720 units sold in April while Category 2 (Light Commercial Vehicles or LCV) posted a surge of 41 percent to 12,233 units. Category 3 (Light Trucks) recorded a 40-percent increase in sales with 466 units sold, while Category 4 and Category 5 (trucks and buses) saw growth of 13.1 percent and 148 percent, respectively.

[article] TVG: Jolex's complicated future
Grey's Anatomy's Camilla Luddington Discusses Jo and Alex's "Complicated" Future
by Liz Raftery | Sep 29, 2016 10:09 AM EDT
Has the final nail been hammered into the Jolex coffin on Grey's Anatomy?
In last week's Season 13 premiere, Alex (Justin Chambers) and Jo (Camilla Luddington) had a brutal conversation in the halls of Grey Sloan, during which Alex essentially told Jo that she's incapable of loving someone due to her upbringing -- this after he beat up the man he (incorrectly) believed Jo was sleeping with. So, suffice to say, their relationship is at a minimum on hold, at least for the time being.
This week, we'll continue to see Alex grappling with the fact that his career hangs in the balance. But where does Jo go from here?
TVGuide.com chatted with Luddington about how Jo continues to deal with the aftermath of Alex's actions, whether there's any hope for them to get back together and when, if ever, we'll find out Jo's backstory.
Now that Webber's (James Pickens Jr.) convinced Jo to stay at Grey Sloan, what can we expect from her this week?
Luddington: In [this] week's episode, Jo is kind of dealing with coming out of the aftermath of all of the drama that happened with the fight in the hospital. ... Everyone is talking about it and talking about her and DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti), and it's a big topic of conversation, and she feels very isolated. I think she's just looking for anyone to lean on, and she doesn't really have anyone. ... Also, people are choosing sides, and you see that happen. So, I think it's kind of a polarizing time within Grey Sloan.
It looks like Alex is going to go to court on Thursday's episode. Does Jo play any role in supporting him through this ordeal?
Luddington: Yes, you see Alex have to go to court, and obviously the outcome of that will possibly change his career. ... Jo does go. She wants to be present for many different reasons that you find out in this episode, [but] she really feels very torn. ... In the last episode, she does go and try and talk to Alex, but he shut her down in a way that was so brutal to her that I think that she's even more heartbroken than she was in the finale of last year.
That conversation between them was pretty hard to watch.
Luddington: It was hard for us to do! It was hard for us to film.
What was Jo feeling in that moment? She seems to just freeze up rather than clarifying things with Alex.
Luddington: I think in that moment she wanted to really clear up what had happened that night, and then maybe get to [telling him about her past] at some point. But I think his reaction to all of this doesn't bode well for her telling him the truth. They know each other so well that he knows exactly how to drive the knife in, and that is the one thing that would be the most hurtful to her, is to make out that her past means that she is not capable of love or commitment. It's hard because I don't even know if Alex really believed that. I think that he was, in that moment, just himself so hurt, confused, angry, that he's going to the lowest low he can think of. But now I think it's shut her down. I'm not sure what it will take for her to open up and ever tell him now.
I think there are two reasons she wanted to go to the hospital in the last episode. ... She tried initially, obviously, to [explain things to] Alex and it didn't work. But I also think she came to the hospital to make sure that DeLuca wasn't the one that delivered any news about her past, and if it ever came out it was going to be on her terms with her telling her boyfriend.
What's your take on why Jo didn't tell Alex the truth about her past in the first place?
Luddington: This storyline's been really interesting to me, because I haven't seen my Twitter erupt in such a way in the four and a bit years I've been on the show than with this particular storyline. Because some people are blaming Jo and some people are blaming Alex, and wondering why she didn't tell him. I think ... she didn't tell him because she thought that he might have a knee-jerk reaction, and that it might make her situation with her past worse, and therefore dangerous for both of them. You guys have been able to see that he didn't just sock DeLuca a couple times. DeLuca almost lost his sight. It was so brutal.
Will we, the audience, learn about Jo's backstory, even if Alex doesn't?
Luddington: We're still so early into filming episodes. It feels like we haven't even really dived in yet to this season and we're really dealing with the initial aftermath of the fight. I hope that once we get into the season we do learn more about that. I think that, when the writers do open Pandora's box in that way, things just happen to spill out. So my hope is that yes, but I can't confirm anything.
Now that she's seen such violent behavior from Alex, would Jo even want to get back together with him?
Luddington: This is why this is so complicated, and when I said earlier that I think she's really torn, she's torn about so many elements over this. And one of them is definitely that she has been a victim of physical abuse, and she saw a side of him when he reacted so badly that he abused someone, basically. ... So I think that's very confusing to her, and I think that she's going to spend a lot of this season unraveling how she feels about him now, how he feels about her, how she feels about different people, how she feels about the fight, if she feels like she can trust people. It's not even any more that she can't tell Alex about the past. Now the fight has just added this completely crazy other layer to it, where it does remind her of things that have happened to her in the past. And she cannot separate it.
We see that Jo also has a conversation with Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) in Thursday's episode. What can you tell us about that?
Luddington: I think she's known for a really long time that relationship [between Meredith and Alex] is extremely close. [Laughs] I mean, they've had problems in the past with maybe boundaries being pushed a little bit. So, I don't think that she's surprised that Meredith would be on Alex's side. I think that she expects it. I think the trouble for her is that Alex is a loved attending, and she is a new resident, and it's been hard for her to make relationships really other than Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton). When people are taking sides, and there's rumors, of course, going around the hospital, it's hard for her to feel like really anyone's taking her side. And of course, there's speculation. So, I think that she thinks that Meredith will side with Alex, but she also feels like maybe everyone will. Which is difficult for her.
When you say she has no one on her side, what about Stephanie?
Luddington: I think Stephanie will always be there for her, and I think Jo has a bad habit of feeling like she wants to try and cope with it on her own. And even if there are moments where Stephanie is there for her, I think that at the end of the day, the people that she's trying to impress in order to get ahead in the hospital, those are the people that she's hoping to forge relationships with too, and then something like this, where it's their fellow attending, that makes it hard for her.
What kind of rumors are going around among the other doctors?
Luddington: Was there cheating going on? Were Alex and Jo really broken up? All those kinds of things.
Do we see her try to clear any of those things up?
Luddington: I think you just see her sort of slowly kind of backed into a corner, as opposed to really trying to explain to what would be 100 people what happened. ... I think it's difficult for her to feel like someone has made that assumption about her. But I think she also understands that that maybe is what it looked like. But at the end of the day, also what's tricky, again, is that, would it have even been considered cheating? Because he had broken up with her. This is what people are arguing over. There are so many elements to this. it's not black and white. It's very gray.
Does Jo feel any sense of guilt or responsibility about dragging DeLuca into this?
Luddington: She does know that she's not responsible, but I think that she sees herself in him in that moment. She has been physically broken, basically, before, and so I think that she feels terrible that he was part of Alex and [her] breakup. So, I don't think she feels responsible necessarily for Alex initiating a fight like that, but I think she feels some sort of guilt for bringing [DeLuca] home. You see elements of that in the next few episodes too.

Most people have something that they worry about when they get older. Some worry about getting fat, and others worry about problems with their bones. For me, it was always the thought of losing my hair. When I saw my hair thinning in the mirror, I started to panic. I switched to wearing hats and using topical products that only masked my hair problem. The fear of a giant bald spot appearing in my scalp caused me to look for a treatment that would actually work. I looked at Keranique reviews after seeing commercials for the product in between my favorite shows.


You will LOVE this bundle! Perfect for Valentine's Day, this bundle comes complete with paper, stickers, and tons of embellishments from the Doodlebug French Kiss collection. Great for scrapbooking, card making, or any of your creative projects! Each kit is priced at 50% - 60% off, normally a $65.00 kit or more! Contents may vary from image.


exactly like the picture. I will go perfect with our new sink and faucet.
Create a solid seal against waste products with this Anthracite metal sink flange. As sturdy as it is attractive, this flange also fits kitchen sinks that have InSinkErator garbage disposals.
Purchased this to match a matte black kitchen faucet from Ikea. It's not an exact match, but I think it will look better than the typical stainless steel.

I stand in solidarity with Verizon workers fighting against corporate greed.
On August 1, the union contract covering 39,000 IBEW and CWA members up and down the East Coast expired. Now, workers are working without a contract and continue their fight for a fair agreement while on the job.
Despite making $18 billion in profits in the last 18 months and top executives raking in $249 million over the last five years, Verizon is still insisting on slashing job security, health care, and retirement security, and refuses to engage in serious bargaining towards a fair contract.
At the same time, Verizon refuses to build out FiOS to many underserved communities up and down the East Coast, and has abandoned upkeep of the its landline network, leading to extensive service problems for customers who depend on their landlines.
Verizon needs to get serious at the bargaining table and stop trying to destroy the livelihoods of the workers who make their success possible.


For this mother-of-two, fitness is not just a healthy habit but also a catalyst for happiness.
The good conversation that Kompal Kapoor Gaur makes resonates long after that cup of coffee has been consumed. As she recalls her journey in fitness, lasting close to two decades now, the aura that she radiates is more striking than the air of confidence that she exudes. Her focus is so sharp that her flow of thoughts is not interrupted by a crying child or a loud storekeeper in Noida.
It does not take her long to express herself on two popular misconceptions. First is the belief that weight loss is the only reason for gymming. The other is that one has to give up food to achieve fitness and health goals. "It is not so much about losing weight as it is about finding oneself and knowing your own potential," she says, clearly speaking with the benefit of first-hand experience.
She delivered twin sons 21 years ago after marriage and a shift to the National Capital Region of Delhi 23 years ago. And, she remembers that she lost all zest for life quite suddenly. Her mother suggested that it was a phase that would blow over soon, but Kompal Kapoor Gaur found no succour. "There was no life in life," she recalls.
The gym was totally intimidating. The instructor also appeared disinterested in assisting her in shed post-pregnancy weight. "He told me to run on the treadmill for 15 minutes and cycle for another 15 and head home. I had no knowledge of fitness but I was wondering why he would not even ask me my background and what my goals were," she says.
It was then that she signed up with another trainer, Maggie. "There was improvement and the myriad questions I had of her made her tell me to sign up to be a fitness instructor," she recalls. It has been 16 years now and she has encountered success – both on the personal front, by regaining her zest for life, and on the professional front, by setting up a women-only fitness zone along the way.
"Everyone needs to find one's own balance between working out and food," she says, indicating that it has to be tackled smartly. "Each one is built differently and exercise has to be in keeping with their respective body shapes. This learning came from my own first experience in the gym where the trainer got me to be on the treadmill or the cycle without even a cursory conversation.
Kompal Kapoor Gaur is justifiably proud that she helped her 80-year old father avoid a knee replacement surgery by getting him to exercise right. Just as she is about helping a software professional move from being someone who would not run beyond 7km to not only complete a half-marathon, but also quit smoking in the process.
She says she is blessed to have discovered that working on fitness keeps her happy, besides making her feel young. "More importantly, the aggression that was taking over my personality has vanished. I can't be grateful enough that my workouts have helped me banish anger and aggression," Kompal Kapoor Gaur says.
It is not as if she only preaches fitness as a way of life. She practices it herself. Well before she starts her training sessions, she finds her half hour to work out at home. "It is the me-time and there is no disturbance from anyone in the family. The 30 minutes power me through the day," she says.
It is in helping scores of women on their fitness journey that Kompal Kapoor Gaur finds a joy and satisfaction. With a clarity of thought and lucid expression, she makes the apparently complicated science of fitness – a combination of strength, flexibility, mobility and endurance – sound not only very simple but also fun, indeed.


The Jefferson County Commission held their March voting meeting on Monday, March 18, 2019 in the Historic Jefferson County Courthouse. Chairman Jefferson County Mayor Mark Potts called the meeting to order. Absent from roll call were Commissioners Solomon and Patterson.
Upon the approval of the minutes (Commissioners Scarlett / Carmichael) and the approval and correction of the agenda (Commissioners Seals / Byrd) two citizens addressed the full body. One citizen speaker requested the Commission extend a proposed tax waiver currently on the agenda for fire fighters to include the disabled and senior citizens. The other citizen speaker said that he favors more funding for CARE, the proposed leash extension and investigating the employment of a grant coordinator, as well as broad band accessibility.
The Commission approved Notaries and Bonds with a motion from Commissioner Baxley and Lowe. Under Business from the Mayor, two Mayoral appointments were approved. Colin McRae will sit on the Jefferson County E-911 Board and Jimmy Henry will complete a term for the late Hoagie Snodgrass on the Solid Waste Regional Planning Board to run through April 2012. The appointees were approved with motions from Scarlett/Reed and Carmichael / Bales respectively.
At the request of Jefferson County Department of Education ( Langdon Potts in for Director of Schools Dr.Shane Johnston who was unable to attend due to illness).Rules were suspended and the question of County contribution to the new JCHS welding program in the amount of $160,00 which would be matched by Jefferson County Schools was brought. With a motion from Commissioners Dockery and Huffaker the request was approved. Also finding favor with the County Commission was a request from the Department of Education to use $125,000 of funding previously assigned for windows for the use of hiring a firm to produce a needs assessment of the Department of Education facilities (excepting ADA compliance which was covered by the County Commission). Upon a motion from Commissioner Phagan and 2nd from Commissioner Huffaker the request was approved.
Upon second reading, the Commission approved on a 14-4-1 vote to waive the county motor vehicle tax for vehicles receiving redemption under chapter 923 of the public acts 2018 for Volunteer Firefighters and Rescue Squad Members. Under Business from the Mayor of Jefferson County, several resolutions were approved with the majority being regular housekeeping in nature. With the recommendation from the Jefferson County Finance Director to maintain the current line of coverage, the Commission approved a motion made by Seals/Huffaker to make no changes in the line of local government agency retiree coverage election at this time.
Budget Committee Chairman Scarlett brought four county and two school budget amendments as recommendations from the budget committee. All found favor with the County Commission, including allowing $588,000 to be used out of the Landfill 207 fund ( currently $1.6) to be used for Class III monitoring well installation and class III cell B closure , which came with an amendment to require regular updates to the County Commission and to update the status of state permitting to the County Commission. Currently the County has an ongoing audit finding in a deficit of $3.7 million dollars for post closure costs.
A resolution that would establish regulations regarding the restraint of dogs and cats in Jefferson County was postponed to allow Commissioners time to consider an amendment offered by Commissioner Thomas that was lengthy in nature. Resolution 2019-14 regarding Broadband and the alleviation of regulatory barriers to expansion was brought by Commissioners Phagan and Blevins. The resolution passed unanimously.

Food, We Need To Talk
Magic Pill
A Kinder, Gentler, No-Diet Way To Start The Year
Carey GoldbergTwitter
Therapist and author Jean Fain
Right around now, all the people who resolved to start the year with a diet are beginning to hit the "I'm starving!" crux point. And by all indications — including a cover story in Sunday's New York Times Magazine about the superhuman effort needed to keep weight off — the vast majority are doomed to fail in this New Year's effort. Jean Fain, a writer and Harvard-affiliated therapist, says there's a better way, and spells it out in her book, "The Self-Compassion Diet."
I'd been wanting to speak with Jean for months, and this finally seemed like the moment. So what, I asked her, would she tell all the dieters who are just about to fall off the wagon?
Most diets demand that dieters stick to the program no matter what. Even if you're starving, you're supposed to keep eating those tiny unpalatable portions, and even if you're going on vacation, you're supposed to stick to the carbs, the points and the calories. It's not a compassionate approach, it is not effective, and it's absolutely no fun.
So rather than starving yourself thin and cranky, how about treating yourself with self- compassion? And by that, I mean treating yourself like a friend or a loved one, with care and concern, because when you do that, you're more apt to eat when you're hungry and stop when you're full — as well as rest when you're tired and move when you feel energized. And when you do that, you lose weight naturally and you're much more likely to keep it off.
[module align="right" width="half" type="pull-quote"]"People don't fail diets, diets fail people.'[/module]
That New York Times piece was really striking: Tara Parker-Pope, whom I consider the most prominent health journalist in America, effectively comes out of the closet as someone who's significantly overweight and just can't keep off the pounds. What would you say to someone like her, who clearly has a genetic propensity toward obesity?
We come in all sizes as human beings, and we're not all going to be equally slim and beautiful, and that's fine because that's just the way it is. But given whatever our genetic predisposition is, when you force yourself to eat this and not that, or you discipline yourself to stick to some kind of low-calorie diet, more often than not you get trapped in a vicious cycle of under-eating and over-indulging.
Just think about it: When you force yourself to eat these puny portions — or much-smaller-than-you'd-like portions — of so-called healthy food, it's just a matter of time before you're raiding the cupboard for cookies and chips, or whatever your favorite treat is. So it's not just genetics, it's the mind-set that is tripping so many people up. They believe they have to force themselves to 'be good.' And I say we're naturally hard-wired to nourish ourselves and if you get out of the way, it's not that hard. It doesn't have to be really, really hard — as Tara Parker-Pope concluded at the end of her piece or as many dieters conclude at the end of their lives.
You've just posted an interview with two sisters who are both therapists who specialize in eating disorders. Among others gems they shared was the aphorism, "People don't fail diets, diets fail people." They also said that making a New Year's resolution to diet was the worst way to end overeating. What takeaways would you want to share from your talk with them? And why is it bad to make a resolution?
It's the dieters' mind-set, just timed to one particular day: 'I'm going to start being really, really good on Jan. 1 I'm going to binge and drink too much till then, and then I'll feel like crap and wake up and expect myself to stick to a diet that I couldn't stick to any other day of the year.' And then it's just a matter of time before you're starving and you're out of your mind with craving and you're not going to make the sanest decisions, because nobody does.
If dieters are honest with themselves, there's just no just denying the truth: That diets don't work very well, not in the long run. Yes, you can lose weight in the short run. It's exhilarating, people love that. But the overwhelming majority of dieters will regain what they lose and often then some. So if you admit that dieting has been a setup for weight gain in your life historically, then why keep setting yourself up? Why not see what a difference self-compassion makes?
So what do you mean by self-compassion? Could you please sum up your whole book in a sound-bite?
In a nutshell, the self-compassion diet is a kinder, gentler more effective way to lose weight than dieting. Rather than calories, carbs or points, this step-by-step plan shows you how to lose weight and gain health and happiness by treating yourself with kindness.
Sounds lovely, but my immediate reaction is: I can't possible loosen my reins when it comes to food or I'll run totally amok!
That's assuming that taking care of yourself is over-indulgent, but think more like a mother would treat a beloved child. If the child is hungry, you don't feed the child 10 gallons of ice cream — you might breastfeed the child or offer a couple of cheerios. Then the child will know before the mother does, 'Oh, I've had enough, I want to play with the toy train, I'm moving on.' That's not indulgence, that's care.
But what about our totally obesogenic environment?
We're surrounded by food, but if you pause for a moment and notice: 'What would really hit the spot, what would feel good in my body, what would give me what I need right now?' Whether energy or comfort or pleasure, you notice what you need, you give it to yourself and it doesn't take 10 gallons of ice cream to satisfy that. If you want a soothing, comforting treat, do have ice cream, have a great time, enjoy it, and then notice when your taste sense diminishes, because very quickly your tongue says, 'Oh, this is boring, you can keep eating but it's not for me.' If you pay attention, that's all that's required. It's so simple it's almost embarrassing.
Your thinking might be considered part of a growing movement, is that right? What is that movement?
It's got many names, and people make a big deal about what name is the right name. Some people call it intuitive eating; some call it mindful eating; some call it attuned eating. I don't care what you call it but there seems to be more interest in it, especially when Oprah said, 'I'm done with dieting, i don't weigh myself anymore, I'm going to pay attention like Geneen Roth, who's the grandmother of the movement, suggests in all her books.' At that time, she was plugging the book "Women, Food and God," and said, 'I'm going to be kind to myself,' and a few more people said, 'Oh, maybe I should pay more attention.'
So it is a movement and it's surely growing. I'm a member of a listserv called "intuitive eating professionals," and they've got 1567 members.
And some studies have come out recently showing the effects of mindful eating?
Yes, there's a growing body of evidence that's showing that mindful or intuitive eating is exactly what the diet doctors should be ordering. Overweight subjects who practice mindful eating strategies lost weight and kept it off in a big NIH study, and those with binge eating disorder binged markedly less frequently and in smaller quantities when they did binge. In a 9-week study, they went from four binges a week to one.
What results do you see with your clients?
It's almost immediate, and it's quite inspiring to watch, because very quickly clients start feeling calmer, wiser and more hopeful. And not only that, they feel lighter, literally and metaphorically.
So here we are heading into 2012, how should we start the year, if not with resolutions and dieting?
How about shifting your attention away from external dietary measures like calories, points and carbs, and inwards toward the internal signals for hunger and fullness, as well as the range of feelings, thoughts and sensations that can fuel overeating?
That sounds likea tall order — but just pay closer attention to hunger and fullness, and with practice, you will learn what I'm talking about: To eat when you're hungry and stop when you're full. And practice does not make perfect. No one pays close attention to hunger and fullness 100% of the time. That's not the point. The point is to take the very best care of yourself that you can, moment by moment, and on occasions when you eat when you're not really that hungry, or eat too much because you're starving, on those occasions, don't beat yourself up if you can help it, but do have a little self-compassion.
Because when you're self-compassionate, it's only natural to stop striving for physical perfection and start accepting yourself just as you are, and then there's hope. Then the very changes you've been trying to force yourself to make, you'll be more inclined to naturally make them.
When you're practicing self-compassion, what does it sound like in your head?
Say you ate a pint of ice cream and you're feeling badly about that. Rather than tell yourself, 'I'm fat, I'm disgusting, I'm a pig, I'll never lose weight,' say something silently like, 'Everyone overeats sometimes.' You'll get back to making healthy choices at the very next meal or snack or as soon as you can. And forge ahead, breathe. It's not the end of the world.
Readers, thoughts?? Have you tried anything like this? How did it go?

Home Food Kitchen Macaroni Recipes Macaroni Recipes
Macaroni Recipes
Home-made macaroni.------------------
To four cupfuls of flour, add one egg well beaten, and enough water to make a dough that can be rolled. Roll thin on a breadboard and cut into strips. Dry in the sun. The best arrangement for this purpose is a wooden frame to which a square of cheese-cloth has been tightly tacked, upon which the macaroni may be laid in such a way as not to touch, and afterwards covered with a cheese-cloth to keep off the dust during the drying.
Boiled macaroni.---------------
Put a large cup of macaroni into boiling water and cook until tender. When done, drained thoroughly, then add a pint of milk, part cream if it can be afforded, a little salt and one well-beaten egg; stir over the fire until it thickens, and serve hot.
Macaroni with cream sauce.-------------------------
Cook the macaroni as directed in the proceeding, and serve with a cream sauce prepared by heating a scant pint of rich milk to boiling, in a double boiler. When boiling, add a heaping tablespoonful of flour, rubbed smoothed in a little milk and one fourth teaspoonful of salt. If desired, the sauce may be flavored by steeping in the milk before thickening for ten or fifteen minutes, a slice of onion or a few bits of celery, and then removing with a fork.
Macaroni with tomato sauce.--------------------------
Drop a cup of macaroni into boiling milk and water, equal parts. Let it boil for an hour, or until perfectly tender. In the meantime prepare the sauce by rubbing a pint of stewed or canned tomatoes through a colander to remove all seeds and fragments. Heat to boiling, thicken with a little flour; a tablespoonful to the pint will be about the requisite proportion. Add salt and if desired, a half cup of very thin sweet cream. Dish the macaroni into individual dishes, and serve with a small quantity of the sauce poured over each dish.
Macaroni baked with granola.---------------------------
Cook a large cup of macaroni until tender in boiling milk and water. When done, drain and put a layer of the macaroni in the bottom of a pudding dish, and sprinkle over it a scant teaspoonful of granola. Add a second and third layer and sprinkle each with granola; then turn over the whole a custard sauce prepared by mixing together a pint of milk, the well beaten yolks of two eggs or one whole egg, and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Care should be taken to arrange the macaroni in layers loosely, so that the sauce will readily permeate the whole. Bake for a few minutes only, until the custard has well set, and serve.
Eggs and macaroni.
Cook a cup of macaroni in boiling water. While the macaroni is cooking, boil the yolks of four eggs until mealy. The whole egg may be used if caught so the yolks are mealy in the whites simply jellied, not hardened. When the macaroni is done, drain and put a layer of it arranged loosely in the bottom of a pudding dish. Slice the cooked egg yolks and spread a layer of them over the macaroni. Fill the dish with alternate layers of macaroni and egg, taking care to have the top layer of macaroni. Pour over the whole a cream sauce prepared as follows: Heat one and three fourths cup of rich milk to boiling, add one fourth teaspoonful of salt and one heaping spoonful of flour rubbed smooth in a little cold milk. Cook until thickened, then turn over the macaroni. Sprinkle the top with grated bread crumbs, and brown in a hot oven for eight or ten minutes. Serve hot.

Three far right Polish hooligans recruited by neo-Nazis to fight anti-fascists in Liverpool were today jailed.
Opposing factions hurled missiles and caused up to £25,000 of damage to St George's Hall in ugly scenes on Saturday, February 27, 2016.
A woman was left scarred for life, a man suffered a broken nose and a police officer was knocked unconscious outside Lime Street Station.
Another officer suffered a broken wrist and an elderly black woman was racially abused and struck in the head by a stone.
Marcin Reekus, Pawel Starzynski, Lukasz Pietraszek and Michal Nalepka all admitted violent disorder at the start of a trial.
Liverpool Crown Court heard how they were recruited by event organisers and North West Infidels members Shane Calvert and Wayne Bell.
Convicted crack cocaine and heroin dealer Reekus, 31, was described as the "principal organiser" of the "Polish Hooligans" group.
He ran a 'Polish Ultras' Facebook page and after being contacted by Calvert, sent him a poster confirming they would fight side-by-side.
Reekus knew the "anti-immigration demonstration" was being moved from Manchester to Liverpool – a deliberate ploy to try and trick police.
Simon Driver, prosecuting, said Reekus did not get out of the train station, where he was pictured posing with a Polish flag.
But a second group of fascists gathered on the steps of St George's Hall, where neo-Nazi flags were flown amid 'sieg heil' salutes.
Police spotted 10 to 15 men in a car park in Craven Street near TJ Hughes, who Mr Driver said "made no secret of their designs".
Some wore black hoodies emblazoned with "Polska Hooligans" and badges showing a person being kicked, captioned "good night left side".
The group – including Starzynski, 36, Pietrazek, 28, and Nalepka, 33 – doubled in size then "descended in unison" to the hall.
Police came under attack from both sides with industrial fireworks, flares, bottles, cobble stones and eggs at around 2.30pm.
After four and a half hours, officers encircled the right wing supporters and marched them back to Lime Street Station.
Police recovered a pepper spray canister from the steps and knuckledusters, a baton and a dog chain from the area where the Poles were held.
Starzynski was arrested and his mobile phone revealed his number had been used for arranging transport on a "f*** Islam and ISIS" event poster.
He had talked about buying the hoodies, one of which he wore when he ran to the hall and threw a smoke canister at counter-protesters.
He was recorded wearing a clown mask, which he took off to reveal a gum shield, and "sparring mitts" on his hands.
Pietrazek also wore one of the hoodies and his phone showed he was responsible for buying and distributing the tops.
He had exchanged text messages with a man about fighting "lefties", saying a "decent crew" was going from Preston, Leeds and Crewe.
Nalepka, who wore his own grey top, was recorded with his face covered and wearing gloves with padded knuckles.
Nalepka was pushed back by officers, but later breached a cordon, only to be assaulted by counter-protesters.
Judge Andrew Menary, QC, imposed criminal behaviour orders, banning all four men from entering Liverpool for five years.
He said many of the "self-styled Polish hooligans" wore "deliberately intimidating face masks" and tops bearing violent imagery.
Reekus, of Bradford, West Yorkshire, was jailed for 23 months and Starzynski, of Ware, Hertfordshire, and Pietraszek, of Hayes, West London, for 20 months each.
Michal Nalepka, of Harlow, Essex, was handed 20 months in prison, suspended for two years, plus a 25-day rehabilitation activity requirement.
Judge Menary said Nalepka must perform 250 hours of unpaid work and pay £500 in compensation, to be split equally between the five victims.

$444m question hanging over the reef
Reef foundation confident ahead of inquiry.
THE Great Barrier Reef Foundation is "extremely confident" it can scale-up to use a record $444 million government grant, as its chairman prepares to face a grilling over the decision.
Hearings will be held in Canberra on September 18 and 21 about the grant, which the foundation received without a competitive tender process.
The foundation received the $444 million, to be used over six years, in one lump sum, and says it's confident in its ability to deliver environmental projects for the reef.
"We are also extremely confident we can leverage these funds further through our proven fundraising ability and are excited about this opportunity," the foundation's inquiry submission says.
With just six full-time staff, the charity completed its scaling-up plan last week, which is expected to be published by the government in a fortnight. Labor has this week threatened to claw back the money back if it wins at the next federal election, calling on the foundation not to spend too much of the money.
Chairman of the Great Barrier Reef Foundation John Schubert will front the inquiry on September 18.
Dr Schubert will be questioned alongside board members Stephen Fitzgerald, Grant King, a former managing director of Origin Energy, and Paul Greenfield, chairman of the International Scientific Advisory Committee.
Conservation groups and representatives from government departments including Finance, Treasury, and Environment and Energy will also face the inquiry when it reconvenes days later.
Wilderness Society national director Lyndon Schneiders hopes to understand why the government steered away from its Reef 2050 Plan.
"It's a strong blueprint for actually trying to fix water quality and try to deal with some of the direct impacts on the reef," he told AAP on Friday. "How did you go from a systematic plan that had some chance of success, to this thought bubble?"
A joint study by the Australia Institute and Future Super says the grant is funding fossil fuel projects through the Big Four banks.
The foundation has accounts with Commonwealth Bank, NAB, ANZ, Westpac, Bank of Queensland and Suncorp.
Former Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg has maintained there was nothing unusual about the grant.

Katja Malus (2014) Paleolithic diet. Diploma thesis.
The paleolithic diet is a diet which imitates the nutrition eaten by various species of hominoids living in the paleolithic era by using foodstuffs available today. The objectives of our thesis were to research the nutrition of human ancestors, to describe a modern paleolithic diet and compare it to healthy dietary guidelines and present experience of individuals who were experimentally eating a paleolithic diet. The aim was to determine whether consuming a paleolithic diet could have beneficial effects on risk factors for non-communicable diseases. Our study included 9 volunteers who were consuming a paleolithic diet for 4-5 weeks. Their diet consisted of meat, vegetables, fruits, seeds, nuts, eggs, mushrooms and fats (lard, olive oil, coconut oil and others), whereas cereal grains, dairy products, legumes, refined fats and sugar were not allowed. The volunteers overcame anthropometric measurements before and after eating the paleolithic diet. We estimated the intensity of their physical workouts and the volunteers kept food diaries for a week, which have been entered into the OPKP computer program. We established that the intensity of the volunteers' physical workouts did not change during the study, that a short-term consumption of a paleolithic diet has beneficial effects on the well-being of the volunteers and that all the volunteers lost body fat and (excluding one volunteer) body weight. Our findings show that the paleolithic diet has beneficial effects on risk factors for non-communicable diseases (body weight, body fat percentage), however, further studies on a larger number of volunteers with additional biochemical parameter measurements are necessary.

Q: Virtual machine won't connect to networking interface I have moved my virtual box hard drive (.vdi file) from windows7 on a laptop, to windows7 on a desktop. No big deal I thought. The OS is ubuntu 10.10. Now networking is broken. I don't have a solid understanding of windows networking, maybe someone can help.
Anyway, the networking no longer works. I've tried to setup eth0. I have virtualbox setup in bridge mode, my wifi connection on windows to an intel card on the virtualbox side. I think it might be something to do with windows not allowing the connection to bridge properly (security issues).
I've provided some screenshots, which will hopefully help.

A: What I need to do was find the network interface.
# Pro Tip: use the -a flag to show any disabled interfaces along with enabled ones.
ifconfig -a
...
eth3 Link encap:bla bla bla

After finding eth3 I replaced all occurrences of eth0 with eth3 in the config file:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces :

auto eth3
iface eth3 inet static
... etc

Then restarted networking:
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

A: Remove the following file in your Ubuntu VM:
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Restart your VM and you would have internet / network access, as long as your Windows Host is properly connected to the internet. If for any reason you can't seem to go out to the internet, try to ping Host from Guest, and try to disable Windows firewall on the Host.
I had a similar / exact issue and deleting the above file helped.

"Just know that you have a lot of people who love and care about you – including the 49ers," he told the boy.
DeMello passed away last month. Goodwin has remained in contact with his family and on Thursday he was seated at his locker writing comforting words on a photo of him and their son.
"I just feel for them," Goodwin said Thursday. "In those situations, I try to put myself in their shoes. Like, 'What if that was me?' Or, 'What if that was my sister? How would I want people to see her?' So I treat them with utmost respect and treat them with as much love as I can because obviously you never know when your time is (up). If I can change somebody's life, help their life by just interacting with them, it means a lot."
Goodwin started as usual on Sunday and was part of the 49ers' longest play of the season, an 83-yard touchdown catch and run in the second quarter. It was one yard shorter than his career-long reception, a touchdown that came last year when he was with the Buffalo Bills. Goodwin also delivered the block that sprung tight end Garrett Celek on his 47-yard touchdown catch.
Through 10 games, Goodwin already has a career-high 500 receiving yards.

Kazakhstan Temir Zholy Expects to Increase International Shipments
By Kseniya Voronina in Business on 9 April 2016
Photo credit: Marat Kurakov, Kazpravda.kz
ASTANA – Kazakhstan Temir Zholy (KTZ), the county's national railroad and logistics company, is planning a decline in domestic freight traffic by 16 percent in 2016 compared to 2012. Timely selection of a strategy aimed at gaining positions in the transcontinental transit traffic market, however, has simultaneously enabled the company to increase container traffic volume over the last five years in the China–Europe–China direction, said KTZ President Askar Mamin at the company's expanded meeting outlining its organisational changes.
"In 2016, the volume of container transportation in the China–Europe–China direction will exceed the 2011 level by 100 times and we intend to bring the volume of container shipments up to 800,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) by 2020," he said.
The KTZ head noted achieving the target parameters is ensured through the use of alternative land and maritime routes.
"So, the freight value of the shipments during transportation from China to Europe dropped by seven times in 2016 compared to 2012 when converted to one TEU. In March of this year, almost 8 percent of the world's container fleet with a capacity of 1.57 million TEUs stood idle at ports throughout the world waiting for cargo," said Mamin. "According to expert data, 30 vessels with a capacity of 9,000 to 14,000 TEUs were withdrawn from service in the Asia–Northern Europe direction. The global fleet of container carriers is scheduled to increase by 4.3 percent in 2016, while the expected increase in traffic volume will not exceed 1.8 percent."
He also noted the infrastructure of the Trans-Siberian corridor is being modernised in Russia.
"As a result, competition for transit volumes will become tougher and gaining market positions will only be possible by implementing an efficient customer-centric operational business model," said Mamin.
The KTZ President also explained the facts of reducing domestic freight, pointing out that the indicators of operational activity of Kazakhstan's railroad is a reflection of basic trends in the development of world and national economies.
"In the growth period of Kazakhstan's economy from 2000-2013, the volume of freight traffic by railway transport has increased. The number of company workers relating to implementation of freight traffic increased up to 2008. Reducing the number of operating personnel during the period from 2009-2015 is related to implementing programmes and measures on improving efficiency. But due to a decrease of price conjuncture traditional for Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, the segment of the export transportations market of mass general cargo demonstrates negative dynamics," said Mamin.
Moreover, in 2016 the turnover of ferrous metals goods is also projected to decline by 12 percent to the 2011-2012 level amidst a stable trend of falling annual average global prices.
"Traffic volumes of oil shipments will decrease by 92 percent in 2016 compared to 2009, from 14 to one million tonnes, and freight turnover by 96 percent… The main factor is a reorientation of Tengiz oil from rail transport into the system of the Caspian Pipeline Consortium," said Mamin.

Q: Counting individual words in a text file I am trying to count the number of times a particular word occurred in a text file. The text file is given as program argument to the perl program.
while($text = <>)
{
    @words = split (/\W*\s+\W*/, $text);
    @words = grep (/^[a-zA-Z\-]+$/, @words);
    foreach $word (@words)
    {
        $wordCount{$word}++;
    }
}

I do not have a clear understanding of these lines -
@words = split (/\W*\s+\W*/, $text);
@words = grep (/^[a-zA-Z\-]+$/, @words);

I know split is going to split the string into the array variable, but how? Is it as non-words? I don't understand the regular expression used in split function.
What does grep do and again its regular expression is unclear to me.
P.S. When i check this, the code seems to have a bug, in that if I enter a text file having text as -

the quick brown fox jumps over the
  lazy dog dog.rose is brown, violet
  jumps the fox.

It counts the words fox and dog only once, which is incorrect.
What is wrong here?

A: I'm not sure that splitting into an array is the most memory efficient method, especially for very large texts. If you have a textfile of a few megabytes, you will build a very large array, which will use a lot of memory.
Instead, I would do something like this:
while ($text = <>) {
    while ($text =~ /([A-Za-z\-]+)/g)  {
        my $word = lc($1);    # dont diffrentiate between 'Dog' and 'dog'
        $count++;             # total word count
        $wordCount{$word}++;  # individual word count
    }
}

Then it is also easy to add new characters, if you happen to find any you wish to include as valid characters in a word. I.e. if you think this_file would be acceptable, change the characters to [A-Za-z\-_].
As for your questions:
The regex \W*\s+W* means: match a non-word character zero to any number of times, followed by one to any number of whitespace, followed by zero to any number of non-word character. A rather odd way to split, but it will basically split around all whitespace, and remove all non-word characters in the process, for a more correct individual word count. (E.g. it will not treat dog, and dog as two different words).
The grep in itself will return a list of values that match the regex. The regex will match any array value in @words that consists only (from start to end) of letters, upper or lower case, and hyphen. If there is any other character inside the value, the grep will exclude it.
The bug is that "dog.rose" and "fox." will not be split correctly, because there is no whitespace. They will therefore not be implicitly cleansed of non-word characters, and thus will be removed with the grep.

A: As always with these questions, there are a million different ways to define what a "word" is.  Taking the existing one in use here (sequence of letters with internal dashes allowed) but making it work with the two noted failing cases:
my $text = 'the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog dog.rose is brown, violet jumps the fox.';
my %wordCount;
for my $word ( $text =~ /([a-zA-Z]+|-(?=[a-zA-Z\-])(?<=[a-zA-Z\-]-))+/g ) {
    ++$wordCount{$word};
}

for my $word ( sort { $wordCount{$a} <=> $wordCount{$b} || $a cmp $b } keys %wordCount ) {
     print "$word: $wordCount{$word}\n"
}

A: \W is matching word characters
\s is matching whitespace

As you might already have guessed, it doesn't work because there's no whitespace between the words in dog.rose.
I would split on \b (which means word boundaries). This should be simpler and more correct than your \W*\s+\W*.
while($text = <>)
{
    @words = split (/\b/, $text);
    foreach $word (@words)
    {
        $wordCount{$word}++;
    }
}

Le Boogie Woogie
Inside an After-Hours Club
Terry Williams
The "after-hours club" is a fixture of the African American ghetto. It is a semisecret, unlicensed "spot" where "regulars" and "tourists" mingle with "hustlers" to buy and use drugs long after regular bars are closed and the party has ended for the "squares." After-hours clubs are found in most cities, but for people outside of their particular milieu, they are formidably difficult to identify and even more difficult to access.
The sociologist Terry Williams returns to the cocaine culture of Harlem in the 1980s and '90s with an ethnographic account of a club he calls Le Boogie Woogie. He explores the life of a cast of characters that includes regulars and bar workers, dealers and hustlers, following social interaction around the club's active bar, with its colorful staff and owner and the "sniffers" who patronize it. In so doing, Williams delves into the world of after-hours clubs, exploring their longstanding function in the African American community as neighborhood institutions and places of autonomy for people whom mainstream society grants few spaces of freedom. He contrasts Le Boogie Woogie, which he visited in the 1990s, with a Lower East Side club, dubbed Murphy's Bar, twenty years later to show how "cool" remains essential to those outside the margins of society even as what it means to be "cool" changes. Le Boogie Woogie is an exceptional ethnographic portrait of an underground culture and its place within a changing city.
Terry Williams has already established himself as a master of gaining access to hard-to-reach, hidden, and vulnerable populations. He has done so again here, giving an in-depth look at a place with which most people will be totally unfamiliar in a vivid and compelling style. Richard E. Ocejo, author of Masters of Craft: Old Jobs in the New Urban Economy
Williams, our twenty-first century griot with an unparalleled deftness for illuminating the most cavernous recesses of our humanity, weaves together exquisite prose, unburdened by self-consciousness or recriminations, pulsating with such delicious expectancy of nights lived reckless but free, tempered by a palpable compassion that renders the foreign familiar and lays bare the beautifully flawed souls buried beneath.

Trump administration moves to curb migrants' asylum claims
Yeganeh Torbati, Kristina Cooke
WASHINGTON/SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - The Trump administration unveiled new rules on Thursday to sharply limit migrant asylum claims by barring individuals who cross the U.S. southern border illegally from seeking asylum.

Immigrant advocates denounced the move, saying it violated existing U.S. law that allows people fleeing persecution and violence in their home countries to apply for asylum regardless of whether they enter illegally or not.
The regulations released on Thursday, in conjunction with an order expected to be signed by President Donald Trump, would effectively ban migrants who cross the U.S. border with Mexico illegally from qualifying for asylum.
Once the plan goes into full effect, migrants entering at the U.S. southern border would only be eligible for asylum if they report at official ports of entry, officials said.
"What we are attempting to do is trying to funnel ... asylum claims through the ports of entry where we are better resourced, have better capabilities and better manpower and staffing to actually handle those claims in an expeditious and efficient manner," a senior administration official told reporters in a news briefing on Thursday, on condition of anonymity.
The Trump administration has already made it more difficult for migrants to qualify for asylum in the United States. Administration officials have said existing U.S. asylum rules encourage illegal immigration and bog down legitimate claims.
In June, then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued an appellate decision that sharply narrowed the circumstances under which immigrants can use violence at home as grounds for U.S. asylum.
Sessions, who resigned at Trump's request this week, also instructed immigration judges and asylum officers to view illegal border-crossing as a "serious adverse factor" in deciding a case and to consider whether applicants could have escaped danger by relocating within their own countries.
Trump made his hard-line policies toward immigration a key issue ahead of Tuesday's midterm elections, sending thousands of U.S. troops to help secure the southern border and repeatedly drawing attention to a caravan of Central American migrants trekking through Mexico toward the United States.
Currently, U.S. asylum rules do not bar people who enter the country without authorization, and the Immigration and Nationality Act, which governs the U.S. immigration system, specifically allows people who arrive in the United States, whether or not they do so at a designated port of entry, to apply for asylum.
The administration's plan, which invokes the same authority Trump used to justify his travel ban on citizens of several Muslim-majority nations, is likely to be quickly challenged in court.
The move would largely affect migrants from Central America's Northern Triangle - Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador - who cross the U.S. border with Mexico to flee violence and poverty in their home countries.
"The vast majority of aliens who enter illegally today come from the Northern Triangle countries," the regulation's text says. "Channelling those aliens to ports of entry would encourage these aliens to first avail themselves of offers of asylum from Mexico."
U.N. refugee agency says examine new Trump policy curbing asylum
Immigrant advocates denounced the administration's move as unlawful, and said the plan to funnel migrants to ports of entry was just a way to cut asylum claims overall.
"Congress has directly spoken to this question as to whether individuals can be rendered ineligible for asylum if they cross between ports of entry and has specifically said people are eligible regardless of where they cross," said Lee Gelernt, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union.
"Ports of entry ... are overcrowded," said Jonathan Ryan, executive director of RAICES, a Texas-based immigrant defence group. "Asylum-seekers have been left to camp out for days and weeks on bridges at the border, when they should be guaranteed a right to enter the country for a fair hearing."

This beautiful gift for mother is one of my favorites.
Autumn and mushrooms. Help! I can not stand mushrooms. I know that mushrooms are healthy, except poisonous mushrooms, ha ha! Although the mushrooms are full of vitamins, those great vitamins do not get me to love mushrooms.
My childhood rule number one was that all food was edible. The basic principle is good, but the mushrooms became a nightmare for me. My father made sure that I and my sisters ate our mushroom sauce. Couple of hours at the dining room table I tried to get my mushroom sauce down the throat. Sometimes I had to vomit and then I came back to the table. Eventually my mother got my father to give up the mushroom project on the grounds that I quietly ate anything except mushrooms.
Even today I hate mushrooms, taste and smell. I have tried to eat mushrooms but it does not work.
My pink mind always finds the positive aspects of things. Mushrooms are nice looking. Red Amanita is very beautiful. I have a pillowcase with Red Amanita. I would also like to have a chair looks like a Red Amanita. I have seen that kind of garden furniture, which are really beautiful.
I love pink mushrooms. I have not seen a pink mushroom in the forest but I have seen photos of pink mushrooms. The photo above is my favorite almost pink mushroom photo. This purple and sometimes pink mushroom is a mystical and very beautiful Laccaria amethystina. This purple mushroom is edible but apparently tasteless. My almost pink mushroom might be perfect mushroom for me, if it really is tasteless. Pink and it's purple cousin are my favorite colors in many ways.
What do you think about mushrooms? Do you like my pink mushroom?
