Book Review: The Moose Paradox, Antti Tuomainen
Book Review: The Moose Paradox, Antti Tuomainen, translated by David Hackston
Mystery: The Moose Paradox, Antti Tuomainen, translated by David Hackston
Sequel to The Rabbit Factor
Blog Tour October 14, 2022
The Moose Paradox, by Antti Tuomainen, is a droll adventure about the hero we all need: an insurance actuary who has inherited an adventure park (NOT to be confused with an amusement park) when his brother died.
By the end of The Rabbit Factor, Henri Koskinen is seeing his life come together nicely. The people trying to hold him accountable for his brother's debts are either dead or in jail. The staff is flourishing under his unorthodox leadership. He is sort of at the beginning of a relationship with Laura and is hoping she feels the same way about him. Indeed, everything is good.
Until it isn't. Sometimes the dead are not as dead as you might think. A trio of criminals has taken over YouFunMe's main supplier and they are refusing to sell the "Moose Chute" to the park, an attraction the park desperately needs to compete. The staff begins to change, making demands of Henri that cannot be met financially. He's a mathematician. He would know. An investor with inside knowledge of the park is eager to buy and is not used to hearing the word "No." And things get complicated with Laura just as his orderly and predictable life begins to fray.
Then a dogged police inspector shows up just to make things interesting.
Henri Koskinen is brilliant at math. He can easily do calculations in his head that for most of us would require an actual calculator. People, though, are much more complicated than math. You would think that they would act logically, reasonably, influenced only by the facts. You would be mistaken in that. And as Henri stumbles his way from one challenge to the next, we see him begin to get the calculus of connectivity. People are not as easy (for Henri) as math, but they just might be worth it.
Especially if he can just get that Moose Chute!
Antti Tuomainen is a delightful writer with a wickedly dry sense of humor. Henri basically recognizes his own weaknesses. He also recognizes that one of his weaknesses is an inability to figure out how to address those weaknesses. What he does not recognize are his own strengths beyond math. He has a strong adherence to a firm moral code. He is loyal, brave, and deeply committed to the people around him. He feels a strong sense of responsibility to the park, its employees, and the people who love it. And if his mathematical precision and acumen makes him a bit weird, well, Tuomainen surrounds him with characters who are just as odd in their own ways as Henri.
David Hackston captures the humor and wisdom of Henri and the rest of the characters with delight and flair. Tuomainen has been described as the funniest writer in Europe. Hackston brings both talent and artistry to his translation, capturing the wry humor, translating the unique cultural aspects unfamiliar to English speakers, and giving us access to a truly special author.
Unlike many mysteries, Tuomainen's work is entirely character based. Henri is not a detective. His procedure has nothing to do with the police. Far too often he discovers who the bad guys are as they are attacking him. His growth, though, as a person, as a lover, as a manager, as a friend, gives him the tools he needs to restore his world to its rightful direction.

The Phoney War Crimes Accusation Against Israel
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/252/the-phoney-war-crimes-accusation-against-israel
Every time Israel seeks to defend its civilians against terrorist attacks, it is accused of war crimes by various United Nations agencies, hard left academics and some in the media. It is a totally phony charge concocted as part of Hamas' strategy -- supported by many on the hard left -- to delegitimate and demonize the Jewish state. Israel is the only democracy in the world ever accused of war crimes when it fights a defensive war to protect its civilians. This is remarkable, especially in light of the fact that Israel has killed far fewer civilians than any other country in the world that has faced comparable threats. In the most recent war in Gaza fewer than a thousand civilians -- even by Hamas' skewed count -- have been killed. This, despite the fact that no one can now deny that Hamas had employed a deliberate policy of using children, schools, mosques, apartment buildings and other civilian areas as shields from behind which to launch its deadly anti-personnel rockets. The Israeli Air Force has produced unchallengeable video evidence of this Hamas war crime.
Just to take one comparison, consider the recent wars waged by Russia against Chechnya. In these wars Russian troops have killed tens of thousands of Chechnyan civilians, some of them willfully, at close range and in cold blood. Yet those radical academics who scream bloody murder against Israel (particularly in England) have never called for war crime tribunals to be convened against Russia. Nor have they called for war crime charges to be filed against any other of the many countries that routinely kill civilians, not in an effort to stop enemy terrorists, but just because it is part of their policy.
Nor did we see the Nuremburg-type rallies that were directed against Israel when hundreds of thousands of civilians were being murdered in Rwanda, in Darfur and in other parts of the world. These bigoted hate-fests are reserved for Israel.
The accusation of war crimes is nothing more than a tactic selectively invoked by Israel's enemies. Those who cry "war crime" against Israel don't generally care about war crimes, as such, indeed they often support them when engaged in by countrys they like. What these people care about, and all they seem to care about, is Israel. Whatever Israel does is wrong regardless of the fact that so many other countries do worse.
When I raised this concern in a recent debate, my opponent accused me of changing the subject. He said we are talking about Israel now, not Chechnya or Darfur. This reminded me of a famous exchange between Harvard's racist president, Abbott Lawrence Lowell, and the great American judge Leonard Hand. Lowell announced that he wanted to reduce the number of Jews at Harvard, because, "Jews cheat." Judge Hand replied that "Christians also cheat." Lowell responded, "You're changing the subject. We are talking about Jews."
Well, you can't just talk about Jews. Nor can you just talk about the Jewish state. Any discussion of war crimes must be comparative and contextual. If Russia did not commit war crimes when its soldiers massacred tens of thousands of Chechnyans (not even in a defensive war) then on what basis could Israel be accused of accidentally killing a far fewer number of human shields in an effort to protect its civilians? What are the standards? Why are they not being applied equally or selectively? Can human rights endure in the face of such unequal and selective application? These are the questions the international community should be debating, not whether Israel, and Israel alone, violated the norms of that vaguest of notions called "international law" or the "law of war."
If Israel, and Israel alone among democracies fighting defensive wars, were ever to be charged with "war crimes," that would mark the end of international human rights law as a neutral arbitrator of conduct. Any international tribunal that were to charge Israel, having not charged the many nations that have done far worse, will lose any remaining legitimacy among fair-minded people of good will,
If the laws of war, in particular, and international human rights in general, are to endure, they must be applied to nations in order of the seriousness of the violations, not in order of the political unpopularity of the nations. If the law of war were applied in this manner, Israel would be among the last, and certainly not the first, charged.

The capacity-building programme in Ecuador that the UNESCO/Japan Funds-in-Trust for Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage has supported for two years concludes with a national meeting in Quito, from 9 to 11 November 2016. Focusing on public policy tools for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage, the meeting will gather over 35 participants who will share the inputs generated over a series of three workshops that were conducted on this topic throughout 2016 in Loja, Riobamba y Puerto López in the south, the central region and the pacific coast of Ecuador, respectively.
The meeting will bring together local government officials, intangible cultural heritage bearers and academics who collaborated in the regional workshops with representatives of other governmental organizations such as the National Institute of Cultural Heritage, the Ministry of Culture and Heritage, the National Secretariat of Planning, the Ministry Coordinator of Human Talent, the Association of Municipalities, the National Secretariat of Higher Education, the Ministry of Health, the Metropolitan Heritage Institute, the Ecuadorian Institute of Intellectual Property and national universities.
Organized around five working groups, discussions will cover some of the guiding principles of the Methodological Guide for Safeguarding Intangible Cultural Heritage, published in 2013 by the National Institute of Cultural Heritage, such as awareness-raising and citizen participation and sustainability. Discussions will also cover more recent national priorities such as the transfer of competencies regarding cultural heritage to the Decentralized Autonomous Governments or the role of intangible cultural heritage for recovery from post-disaster situations, following the earthquake that shook the country in April 2016. Participants will engage in an inter-sectoral dialogue to systematize the issues and guidelines identified at the decentralized level, with a view to design national strategies in each of these thematic areas. The aim is to ensure the presence of intangible cultural heritage as a cross-cutting theme in public policies within the framework of Ecuador's National Plan for Well-Being.


Born in Kansas City, Missouri as Kate Noel Brosnahan, Spade is widely known for her eponymous brand, which she founded with her husband, Andy Spade (the brother of actor David Spade), in the 1990s. The couple, who married in 1994, have a 13-year-old daughter, Frances Beatrix Spade.
The company was acquired by Neiman Marcus for $125 million in 2007 and Kate and Andy stepped away from day-to-day operations. Then, it was sold again in 2017 to Coach's Tapestry Inc. for $2.4 billion. The brand currently has 140 stores in the United States and an additional 175 retail outlets around the world.
Kate launched another fashion brand, Frances Valentine, in 2015 (she officially changed her name to Katherine Noel Frances Valentine Brosnahan Spade around the same time) which specializes in handbags and shoes.
Many designers and celebrities have taken to social media to share memories of Kate, her iconic designs, and send their condolences.
Others are sharing pictures of their favorite items in tribute.


Gluten-free pasta is easy to find. Nature food stores and even Loblaws (in the organic food section) stock them.
My favourite brand (also the most widely available) is Tinkyada rice pasta.
I think rice pasta are the best. Almost like real pasta, especially for spaghetti.
Another brand I find just as good (spinach rice pasta) is from Riztopia (made in Canada). I probably get it at the Westgate mall's natural food store and maybe at the Big Loblaw's too (Richmond and Kirkwood).
Of course, there are all the asian rice noodles, but as a substitute to wheat pasta (i. e. italian style) they are a little different than the above brands. Also gluten-free certification is maybe questionable and difficult to ascetain for the truly asian brands. But what do I know? I've seen the "Thai kitchen" brand listed on one of the gluten-free product listings (somewhere!).
I've tried other pasta too. Bean pasta is passable (strong taste) and potato pasta is downright horrible (very mushy).

OMF V4C51 The First Alchemist Duan Gui Ying
On 10. September 2018 29. April 2021 By Yan Su SuIn Oh. My. Fate?!, Original
Jing Yi left it be. Qiu Ling had already done what he had done and it was obvious why he had made that suggestion. He didn't agree with it but he also couldn't fault him that easily.
"So, then what about that senior martial brother Yue now? Did he harass you?"
Jing Yi sighed. Why was that always the first thing Qiu Ling thought of? "No."
"Are you sure? You can tell me if he did. I'll go and beat him up for you."
Jing Yi reached over and cupped his cheeks. "Don't be like that. Not everyone is going to be after me. And even if he was, I'm only in love with you. So you don't have to worry."
"Mn. I know that."
"Actually, senior martial brother Yue is really nice. He offered to teach me how to read too."
"You told him that you won't need that, didn't you?"
"I didn't."
Qiu Ling paused. He had been sure his beloved would decline! "Why?"
Jing Yi sighed again. "Qiu Ling, I do understand that you don't want me to spend too much time with somebody else but … how are we going to accomplish our mission like that?"
"But we already found those two. They're here willingly and don't seem like they'll go back anytime soon. Doesn't that mean we're already done? We could just go back and marry if you really don't want to stay here."
"It's not like that. What you said is true, yes, but what if the Grandmaster had some sort of hidden agenda when he approached them? We still haven't made that clear."
"He certainly had if wanting to marry someone counts as a hidden agenda."
Jing Yi just looked at him and Qiu Ling sighed.
"Alright, alright. I'll let him teach you. But you'll see that I'm way better at teaching than him. Hmph. I really want to see that guy now!"
"You won't have to worry about that. I told him about the duel with senior martial brother Nian. He said he'll come to cheer you on."
"Oh?" Qiu Ling furrowed his brow. Could it actually be that this senior martial brother Yue was a decent guy who really wanted to support them? Mn, maybe Jing Yi was right and he shouldn't suspect all these men?
"Ah, right, he also gave me all the things I'll need in the Alchemy division." Jing Yi nodded in the direction of the things he had brought back. The house they had moved in was completely furnished but they didn't have anything to put inside so he would have felt strange to do so with the things he had gotten from Yue Lin. In the end, he had just put them into a corner.
"There's a manual and it seems I'll have to read a lot, so …" He rubbed over Qiu Ling's chest and smiled. "Even if senior martial brother Yue teaches me how to read, there are still things you can help me with. In fact … learning to read is a lot of work. It's not so bad if somebody else teaches me that. But there is only one person I'd like to read a manual to me."
"Mn. Is this considered as you coaxing me?"
Jing Yi smiled. "Does my future husband require to be coaxed?"
Qiu Ling sharply inhaled. Alright, his beloved was incredibly good at sweet-talking. He couldn't compare at all! "I …"
"… feel like reading that manual to you right now?"
"Indeed. I can't imagine anything better." Qiu Ling lifted his hand, waved at the book, and had the wind bring it over. He certainly wouldn't leave his beloved's side to get it. "Alright. Come here." He hugged Jing Yi close and lay down on the bed.
Jing Yi smiled. He had been prepared for Qiu Ling to take advantage of the situation. Thus, he just nestled up against his chest and looked at his face. Qiu Ling actually seemed serious when he opened the book and started to read.
"The Alchemy our Hei Dian Sect teaches is based on the achievements of Duan Gui Ying. It is important that our disciples know of this first alchemist to understand the roots of what they are being taught today.
"When Huan Yin established the Dark Temple to honor the god of darkness there were three men at her side who should later be known as the first cultivator, the first practitioner, and the first alchemist. The disciples of these four people later founded the Hei Dian Sect around the Dark Temple and passed on the knowledge their Masters had imparted to them.
"While the cultivator and practitioner, An Rong and Feng Jian Hao, as well as Huan Yin herself, passed those lessons down orally Duan Gui Ying wrote down what he knew and let each of his disciples make a copy that they should carry around and have their disciples copy when the time came for them to pass on their knowledge.
"Duan Gui Ying separated his notes into several parts: One part about how an alchemist should be. One part about what an alchemist should have. One part about how an alchemist should work. One part about what an alchemist should use. And finally one part about what an alchemist shouldn't do.
"These five parts are still the basis of our teachings, though they were edited by each new generation." Qiu Ling stopped and frowned. "I don't think this is actually important."
Jing Yi laughed lightly. "You haven't read that much yet." In fact, he barely seemed to have reached the end of the first sect
"Yes, but isn't this just baseless self-praise? They're basically saying 'Oh, look! We had some great ancestor who was really smart and wrote everything down and we're still honoring him. So kneel down and worship him!' Don't you think so?"
"Is it wrong? They had that ancestor."
"Who knows if he really wrote all that down? You heard it yourself: His students and everyone else copied and edited it. There's probably not much of his initial ideas left."
"Still, without the things he did, the others wouldn't have had anything to edit. So I guess it's not wrong to write a bit about him. Moreover … it's the history of the sect. Isn't it normal to teach that to their disciples?"
"Mn …" Qiu Ling looked at the strokes in the book. Maybe his beloved was right. It was just that he hated that kind of praising of the predecessors. It always made him feel like he should be doing the same. But he kind of disliked his predecessor and even though his father had told him about the guy who had been king before the old geezer, he had never known him and didn't really care about him either. About those kings even before that guy … he had no idea at all. They were already swallowed up by the changes time brought with it and he couldn't be bothered to uncover any of that.
"Well, as long as you like it, I'll continue to read the rest." He looked back into the book and continued. Actually, it wasn't so bad considering he had his beloved's complete attention. Mn, he should treasure this moment.

Although Gmail does accept messages on IPv6 addresses, it turns out that it does not deliver to IPv6 addresses.
Well that is a bit strange, my guess is that one or more of the outbound mail servers have some issues (provavly sw related) that stops them enabling ipv6 or maybe the have not seen any demand yet.
This is odd, because I could understand some concerns about incoming connections. But what could go wrong with outgoing ones?
GMAIL is not SMTP (standard 10; RFC 821) nor RFC 2821 nor 5321 compliant. If they can't even do it properly over IPv4, what makes you think they can do it over IPv6?
You have a good point, although the fact that they do accept emails on IPv6 addresses is what made me think their IPv6 is actually already working.

by Rob Williams on September 1, 2008 in Graphics & Displays
If you've been holding off on an upgrade for a while, there's no reason to continue if a gaming addiction is pulling at your sleeve. The selection for mid-range cards right now is ideal, and anything you pick up will deliver good performance for the money. The best card for the buck right now might be the HD 4870, and we take Palit's version for a spin to find out why.
Each graph for our benchmarking results are labeled with the resolution that the game was played at, while omitting secondary settings such as Anti-Aliasing, Anisotropic Filtering, texture quality, et cetera. To view all specific settings that we used, please refer to our testing methodology page, where screenshots show the exact settings used.
It's not often that a game comes along that truly pushes our hardware to the utmost limit. Crysis is one of those few games, and that will be the case for at least the next year. Don't believe me? Boot up your top-end machine, max out your resolution and set the graphics to "Very High". I guarantee tears will be shed within a few seconds of loading a level.
The level we chose here is Onslaught, also known as level five. We begin out in a tunnel, but what's important is that we are in control of a tank. What could be more fun? Our run through consists of leaving the tunnel and hitting the other side of the battlefield, killing six or seven enemy tanks along the way.
It goes without saying that any level in Crysis would make for a great benchmark, but this one in particular is gorgeous. Using the "Medium" settings, the game looks spectacular and is playable on all of our graphic cards, so we stick with it. Throughout the level, there is much foliage and trees and also large view-distances. Explosions from the tanks is also a visual treat, making this one level I don't mind playing over and over, and over.
Settings: Due to the intensiveness of the game, no AA is used at any resolution, and the secondary settings are all left to Medium.
Please note the lack of HD 4870 X2 results. The reasons were laid out in that review, as our particular card performed horribly in both Crysis and Half-Life 2. I'm still unsure of the reason my particular driver / card experienced issues while others had none, but I'm still looking into it.
The real power of the card proved itself in our higher resolution tests, and at 2560×1600, it dominated in the battle with NVIDIA's 9800 GTX. The GTX 280 was impossible to catch, but that's not surprising given the pricing differences between the two.

<script src="/_nuxt/app.js" integrity="sha256-QcoWoREdQOlM2GAA/i4qmOYRMED/cckK1XPNKTCVh9g= sha512-S163FQo9fj70zvaK4IouYKyk2O2jyKGNimr/z6SJD6xHeN7p4sQOS979HKwDhpXTS7OUegEleaP1q/K6qjVjxw==" crossorigin="anonymous">

I tried to debug and logging in the package's source code but nothing go wrong. In both webpack-intergrity-subresource and html-webpack-plugin, the script tag looked as my expect, but when they came to browser, they looked different
my versions:
"nuxt": "^2.15.8", ("@nuxt/webpack": "2.15.8")
"webpack-subresource-integrity": "1.5.2"

A: nuxtjs only use html-webpack-plugin to inject resource in Static Site Generation, for ssr they do it themself. So basically we can only enable subresource integrity when in static mode.

The amount of information society is creating every day is leaving today's storage technologies creaking at the seams, and our only option is to go smaller.
The building blocks of today's modern computers have been getting progressively smaller ever since they were first invented, but now, as we create and design new 1nm scale transistors and computers that are smaller than viruses, and harness quantum mechanics to create next generation quantum computers, IBM have managed to go one better. They've managed to store one bit of data on one atom.
For now though the advance might be more symbolic than practical because of the complexity, and cost involved of commercialising the technology, but it's a great way to show what the future holds for storage, and it's another example of science fiction turning into science fact – along with deflector shields, laser weapons, tractor beams and replicators.
Atoms are the smallest unit of matter, and to put this into perspective this week researchers managed to store a movie, and several other things, on the nucleotides of DNA – a record in its own right – which are made up of thirty atoms, and a few months ago researchers managed to cram 10 bits onto a photon – yes, a photon! Meanwhile today's state of the art solid state drives can hold a single bit of information in 100,000 atoms, which all in all means that IBM's latest announcement trumps them all – by a very wide margin.
IBM's breakthrough involved a single Holmium atom – a large atom that has lots of unpaired electrons – that was set on a bed of magnesium oxide. In this configuration, the atom has what's called magnetic bistability, in other words, it has two stable magnetic states each with different spins.
The researchers used a scanning tunnelling microscope to apply 150 millivolts at 10 microamps to the atom, and while that doesn't sound like a lot when you're an atom that's like being hit by lightening. This huge influx of electrons caused the Holmium atom to switch its magnetic spin state, and because the two states have different conductivity profiles, the microscope's tip managed to detect which state the atom was in by applying a lower voltage, about 80 millivolts, and sensing its resistance.
In order to be absolutely sure though that the atom was changing its magnetic state, and thereby "holding data," and that this wasn't just some random interference the researchers laid it next to an iron atom. Iron atoms are affected by their local "magnetic neighbourhoods" and the iron atom acted differently to the Holmium atom when probed, which proved the experiment truly created a lasting, stored magnetic state in a single atom that can be detected indirectly.
And bingo – there you have it. One bit. One atom. One record.
