Le château Labottière, appelé aussi hôtel Labottière, ou maison Tivoli, est un hôtel particulier du  situé à Bordeaux, au 29 rue Labottière. Il est réalisé en 1773 pour les frères Jacques et Antoine Labottière, par les architectes Laclotte. Il abrite aujourd'hui l'Institut culturel Bernard Magrez.

Le château Labottière ne doit pas être confondu avec le Petit hôtel Labottière, considéré comme le petit frère du château, et qui a été construit près du Jardin public par François Lhote, pour un autre Labottière, Étienne, oncle de Jacques et Antoine.

Histoire
Le château Labottière a été construit de 1770 à 1773 par les architectes Étienne et Jacques Laclotte, pour Jacques et Antoine Labottière. Ces deux frères, imprimeurs et éditeurs bordelais du , tenaient boutique Place du Palais de l'Ombrière et possédaient un petit vignoble dans la campagne bordelaise. Les frères Labottière seront ruinés par la Révolution en 1790. Après la mort d'Antoine Labottière en 1794, son frère Jacques vend le domaine, la maison, la librairie et l'imprimerie l'année suivante.

Sous le Directoire, la demeure est acquise par M. Boers, un Hollandais qui la loue à M. Lannefranque, entrepreneur de spectacles, qui ouvre en ces lieux un établissement de plaisir au nom de Maison Tivoli. L'historien de l'art Philippe Maffre évoque ensuite la présence d'un établissement de danse nommé « Fêtes champêtres, A Idalie » ouvert par M. Labille en 1803, où des fêtes étaient organisées par l'architecte Dufort-Marionneau.

Le Château Labottière appartiendra un temps à Antoine Gautier, maire de Bordeaux de 1849 à 1863, avant d'être vendu en 1857 à la Compagnie de Jésus qui firent bâtir dans les dépendances du domaine le collège Saint-Joseph de Tivoli. En 1904, un incendie mène les jésuites à déménager sur le terrain qu'ils occupent toujours aujourd'hui avenue d'Eysines. À cette époque, la municipalité envisage d'installer au sein du château Labottière un Musée des Arts décoratifs, mais en 1911 ce dessein semble être abandonné au profit de l'hôtel de Lalande. L'hôtel et le jardin paraissent inoccupés voire abandonnés jusqu'en 1918 où il est acquis par Janine Lozes qui s'y installe avec l'architecte Pierre Ferret jusqu'en 1931. Durant ces Années folles, tous deux mènent une grande vie et organisent de nombreuses fêtes et soirées à l'hôtel Labottière. Pierre Ferret entreprend également des travaux à cette époque, soucieux de respecter l'esprit néoclassique de la construction. Par ailleurs en 1920, à la demande de l'entrepreneur Marcel Despax, Pierre Ferret est l'auteur d'un hôtel particulier au 41 rue Durieu de Maisonneuve, au dos du Château, sur une parcelle qui appartenait autrefois au jardin Labottière.

En juin 1940, le gouvernement français se replie à Bordeaux. Le château est réquisitionné pour abriter le lycée Longchamp (aujourd'hui lycée Montesquieu), ce dernier étant occupé par le Ministère des affaires étrangères de Paul Baudouin.

Racheté au groupe Suez en 1996, par l'homme d'affaires et mécène Bernard Magrez, le château a été restauré au printemps 2011 pour y accueillir l'Institut Culturel Bernard Magrez, ses artistes en résidence et ses expositions d'art moderne et contemporain. Il s'est notamment spécialisé dans le Street-art.

Architecture

Extérieur
De forme rectangulaire, l'hôtel présente un rez-de-chaussée et un étage. Il est couronné par un grand entablement au-dessus duquel court une corniche sur modillons, surmontée d'une balustrade. Un deuxième étage existe, dissimulé derrière la balustrade. La travée centrale forme un avant-corps couronné par un fronton triangulaire dont le tympan est occupé par deux figures d'enfants déroulant une toile ornée d'un dessin. La façade opposée présente un avant-corps en demi-cercle.

À droite de l'hôtel se trouvent les communs. La grille d'honneur et les petits pavillons qui la flanquent, sont modernes. À l'extérieur subsiste un jardin à la française.

Intérieur
L'intérieur conserve un décor en staff de style Louis XVI qui a remplacé les anciennes boiseries, vendues.

Éléments protégés
L'hôtel a été inscrit aux Monuments historiques en 1935, ses façades, ses toitures et son jardin sont classées en 1938.

Répliques

Le château Carthon-Ferrières
A Gradignan, rue Gutenberg, se trouve le château Carthon-Ferrières, construit au . Pastiche de l'architecture néo-classique du , il s'inspire directement du château Labottière.

La Duke House
Le style néoclassique du château Labottière s'est exporté outre-atlantique. En plein cœur de l'Upper East Side, à New York, il existe une réplique quasi exacte du château, la James Duke House. Cette copie est commandée en 1912 par un magnat du tabac, James Buchanan Duke, et réalisée par l'architecte afro-américain .

Radzi Chinyanganya to leave BBC Blue Peter
Home • News • Radzi Chinyanganya to leave BBC Blue Peter
Updated on Friday 22 March 2019
Radzi Chinyanganya will leave Blue Peter after spending five and a half years on the programme.
In an announcement posted on Instagram last night, the 32-year-old said:
"After 5 INCREDIBLE years, I have decided to hang up my Blue Peter badge, and say goodbye to the show I absolutely loved growing up (I'll be leaving next month).
"If you had asked ten year old Radzi to describe his dream job, he would have immediately said "a Blue Peter presenter". It has been a genuine childhood dream come true for me. Whether it's climbing the world's tallest man-made climbing wall, swimming across Lake Windermere or solo-skydiving with RAF Falcons', it's been the time of my life.
"I'll always be grateful for the experiences I've had, the people I've met and the relationships I've made.
"After 250 plus episodes, I have learnt an incomprehensible amount, met some game-changing people, broken a bone and genuinely given my blood, sweat and tears.
"I will undoubtedly miss being part of the show, but all good things must come to an end, and this has been great! So whilst my voyage on the BP ship comes into harbour, as one adventure ends, another begins. About which I couldn't be more excited for what lies ahead!"
In January, he joined Sky Sports to lead its coverage of the National Basketball Association (NBA) London Game 2019, following his BBC coverage of the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
Radzi also works as a backstage interviewer for World Wrestling Entertainment's UK version of NXT.

Raleigh 400
Marking the 400th anniversary of the death of Sir Walter Raleigh (or Ralegh; pronounced either Rally or Rawly). Born between 1552 and 1554 at Hayes Barton, East Budleigh, Devon. Unjustly executed in London on 29 October, 1618. Explorer, courtier, fashion icon, parliamentarian, diplomat, politician, soldier, ship designer, poet, historian, businessman, chemist and botanist with the reputation, in later life, of being a physician... and Great Devonian.
50 Years Ago: 'The Boyhood' at Budleigh – Pt 4
Continued from http://raleigh400.blogspot.co.uk/2017/12/fifty-years-ago-boyhood-at-budleigh_50.html
Included in the papers in Fairlynch Museum archives relating to Joyce Dennys' 1969 play 'Sir Walter Raleigh' is a handwritten document entitled 'BBC Interview' in which a Mike Claridge meets Sir Walter. It's all very much part of the comic treatment of the Raleigh story, as used by American comedian Bob Newhart in his classic 1960s telephone conversation with Sir Walter about tobacco.
You can watch Bob Newhart's performance at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Zli4AdR3ks and the script is reproduced at https://monologues.co.uk/Bob_Newhart/Tobacco.htm
But here's Budleigh's Salterton's comic take on Sir Walter. Questions: who is or was Mike Claridge? And who wrote the script?
Enter R. Mike Claridge with mike.
M. Good evening, listeners. We have in the studio this evening a well loved personality – especially here in the West Country – Sir Walter Raleigh.
He holds an electric torch under R's nose.
W. Rawleigh, please.
M. I beg your pardon?
W. Rawleigh – my name is Rawleigh.
M. That's what I said – Rarley. Now, tell me, Walter. There's been a good deal of talk down the ages about that little affair of the puddle and Queen Elizabeth and your cloak. Is it a true story or just a fable?
W. Well…
M. I know things get exaggerated in the press, but I must tell you the story has been widely circulated over the last three hundred years or so.
M. A lot of old age pensioners and children and those sort of folk believe it implicitly – it's a case of simplicity really. I say, that's rather good, don't you think? Implicity – Simplicity. Ha, ha, ha.
He laughs at his own joke.
W. Well, you see…
M. Of course we at the BBC don't believe it – actually we don't believe much anything really – only 'The Archers' and Malcolm Muggeridge.
W. Well, you see – it was like this…
M. My own theory is that it was the beginning of a strip-tease act.
W. Strip-tease?
M. Yes. Strip-tease. You know.
W. I'm afraid I don't.
M. Taking off your clothes…
W. What for?
M. I'm not sure. But you have to do that sort of thing of you want to be with it.
W. With what?
M. It.
W. to himself I spent a good many years of my life on ships but was never more at sea than now.
M. We are straying from the point, Walter. People always stray from the point when they're being interviewed. It's nerves of course. Now, where were we?
W. Taking off our clothes.
M. Oh yes, of course – that business with the cloak. You didn't really do it, did you, Walter?
W. Of course I did.
M. You astonish me.
W. Well, you see, Michael…
M. Mike.
W. I beg your pardon, Mike. Well, you see, Mike, it was like this, Liz had been a bit tetchy all the morning, you know.
M. Liz?
W. Queen Elizabeth.
M. Yes, of course.
W. I often called her Liz – we were on pretty good terms at the time, you know. In fact I might say without undue conceit I was one of her favourites, you know. She changed later. He sighs, sadly, and pauses. You know.
M. So I understand. Now Walter, you were saying the Queen had been a bit, well, irritable, all the morning.
W. She had indeed. In fact she was in a vile temper. Too much dancing and too much sack the night before. She was no longer young, you know, though we all had to pretend e thought she was. Her favourite you might be, but when she was in one of her moods, she'd suddenly, without any warning, shout 'Off with his head!'
M. Like the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland.
W. The Red Queen? I don't think I've heard of her,
M. No, you wouldn't. She was after your time. Go on, Walt.
W. Well, Mike, I saw Liz coming along with a face like a thunder cloud – if looks could kill I'd have fallen dead at her feet. 'Take care, my boy,' I said to myself, or you'll have your head on the block. As a matter of fact that's exactly where I did find it eventually, though it was nothing to do with Liz. Actually, you know, that was James – a very tiresome character.
M. I know, I know. It's history. Go on, about the cloak?
W. Well, I saw Liz and then I saw the puddle. She had on a new pair of green leather shoes that morning. Very handsome they were – made in Spain, actually. She had pretty feet, Liz had, and she was proud of them, you know. Well, I saw this whacking great puddle, you see, and I said to myself, you must do something about this, Walter, I said, or there'll be wigs on the green.
M. You were nervous, naturally, Walter.
W. I'll say I was, Mike. My first instinct was to pick her up in my arms and carry her across – like a bride over the threshold of her new home.
M. A bit risky, wasn't it, Walter?
W. I thought so, Mike. Mind you, she loved a bit of masterful he-man stuff. She'd have loved it. Liz was like that. But she'd have had to pretend she was angry, and well, nobody wants to have his head cut off to save a woman's face, does he?
M. Naturally.
W. So I whipped off my cloak – it was my best, you know, and made of velvet, and I laid it down in the middle of the puddle, and she put her pretty green shoe on it and walked across dry-shod. And then she smiled at me – it was a wonderful smile, Mike. I hope you won't think me conceited if I say it was a loving smile. Essex was furious.
M. I'm sure he was, Walter.
W. And then she said, 'Give me your sword, Walter', and I gave it to her. And then she said 'Kneel down', and I knelt down on my cloak. The water had begun to seep through by then, and I got my knees wet, and then she said: 'Rise, Sir Walter!' You should have seen their faces.
M. I don't remember that art of the story.
W. I don't suppose you do – I've just made it up.
M. snatching away the microphone For goodness' sake, don't say things like that. Do you realise there are millions of people listening?
W. Millions? looking round. I don't see them.
M. into mike Well, ladies and gentlemen, you have been listening to that famous character Sir Walter Rally telling us the true story of Queen Elizabeth and the cloak. Thank you, Walter, for coming here this evening.
W. Thank you, Mike.
Sir Walter starts to go off and then comes back and takes the mike from M.
M. My cloak was ruined and so were my hose.
Sir Walter exits. Chorus enters.
M. His cloak and his hose were ruined. But what did Sir Walter do? Did he despair?
Chorus: No!
M. Did he weep?
M. Did he beat his breast?
M. No, no, listeners, a thousand times no! He sent his cloak and his hose to Purge, the Spotless, Stainless, Lily White Cleaners, and two days later they were returned to him.
Chorus: As good as new.
M. Spotless.
Chorus: Stainless.
M. Lily White Cleaners.
Chorus: Telephone number 8673.
M. Branches in all the provincial cities.
Chorus: If your clothes need cleaning, send them to Purge, the Spotless, Stainless, Lily White Cleaners.
Song and dance. Mike and Chorus. 'Little Brown Jug'
[For those who don't know the tune of 'Little Brown Jug' here it is on YouTube played by Glenn Miller at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOG89TrL4Vk ]
Lily-white, clean and bright
Purge will quickly put it right.
Spot and blot, smear and stain,
Purge will make it clean again.

Michael Downes
Born in 1946, in Birmingham UK, of Scottish-Irish parentage, and brought up as a Roman Catholic. Early education may have driven me into teaching, in the belief that schools should offer a more enjoyable experience for children. Studied French at London University, specialising in 16th century literature. Then came 34 years of teaching French, along with red herrings and common sense, at Oundle School,5). Dabbles, and some people say meddles, in many areas. A passionate gardener, moved to Devon partly to grow ericaceous plants more easily. Other interests include family, cycling, walking, ph Northamptonshire. Published articles in Etudes Rabelaisiennes, (a long time ago), and some books - 'Oundle's War' (1995) - 'The Scientist in The Cottage' (2013) - a biography of Henry Carter FRS (1813-95), 'Our Little Clown' - a biography of Reg Varney - photography, reading, music, studying butterflies, chopping wood, DIY, playing on the scaffold tower, and networking for the Greater Good. Married to Anthea for over 40 years. Three children: Emily, Simeon and Rosanna, four grandchildren and two Bengal cats. I'm a cancer survivor – I hope!

So, what the government is saying is that they can't defend the nation against a few hundred sick people they have in their care. How incompetent! Their border security must be a tenuous arrangment if the entire country is imperiled by a few medical practitioners doing what we've trained them to do.
They are desperate, not that that is a valid excuse.
They 'weaponise' anything and everything possible, cast aside conventions as well as basic civil conduct and will booby trap anything within reach to leave a mess for, hopefully an incoming Labor Government.
What is an open question is whether voters will tolerate it, fall for it or cheer it. Sadly its hard to have much confidence in their verdict, given past circumstances.
We know most of the MSM will either cheer it or just accept as more dross 'fill' to their crappy offering.
Here is Shayne Neumann earlier today. Not exactly as The Age is reporting.
Shorten will be damned if he does and damned if he don't on medical evacuations.
Yep, probably. So… all the more reason to just do what's right, surely?
Yes it is clear now that ScumMo had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the RC, and he will now have to be dragged kicking and screaming to implementing any of it.
'Before watching the ad, 42% of consumers said they agreed Gillette "shared their values." After watching, that figure increased to 71%.
65% said the ad made them more or much more likely to purchase Gillette.
I get a sense that Labor are heading for a sensible position on the medical transfer bill. Hopefully a position that will still give the Minister the final decision, but add some more transparency. As I said the other day, I think to support the bill in its current form would be a mistake, one that Labor seems less likely to make.
More one-sided commentary. Have you read some of the things nath has written!?! He identifies as a Green you know!?!
In the interests of following William's stated aim of lifting standards I am not going to respond but just note who it is that is forever agitating and bringing up old stuff to generate personal abuse.
I'll be back later but here is the full list of Newspoll guesses. I hope I haven't missed anyone.
My WIFE, who is non political, went to the TV and turned it off!
Tim Wilson how do you live with yourself?
Assuming Labor win a May election, who will be Liberal leader and deputy leader afterwards, and who will be Nationals leader?
I'm going with – Abbott, Frydenberg, Littleproud.
Looking at recent reporting on the factions of the Liberals it seems that Dutton would of course be the favourite of the conservatives, Pyne or Bishop of the moderates. Based upon the last vote it seems that the winner depends on the group of NSW members that are loyal to Morrison, how will they vote if he's gone? You'd think they'd back the moderate candidate but you never know. I guess it depends on whose still standing. Pyne would be the best bet in my book.
And if you are just setting the parameters as that which occurs during the election campaign, that is just as silly, dtt. It's not a game. Try looking at the substance instead of simply the numbers.
I was trying to be FAIR ie not raise issues of the past to keep objectivity. It is the SAME process i started with the policies and will continue.
What i am trying to say, patiently is that is there are five substantial policy areas where Labor aligns with the coalition as opposed to the greens, those of you who are fair minded will agree that there ARE significant differences and STOP attacking people like Peg who say that the two parties are the same.
Perhaps if we find that the ALP and Greens are together on say 15 issues and different on 5 then you can say that same same is not fair, but if say it ends up being 5 5 it is less clear cut.
Look Cat using numbers is really the ONLY way to keep some objectivity and prevent the sort of circular and never ending carry on that we can get here. So list and quantify and stop screeching at one another.
For all the people saying that two parties(Labor-Green, Labor-Liberals, Green-Liberals) are the same because some bills they vote together on, I think the key difference is what did the third party do.
If all three parties voted the same then you can't really use that to say the other party is different.
We went to the trailer-park soirée tonight and all we discussed was the sardonic(?) Sartre.
Its not the number of times parties vote together.
Here's hoping for a 50/50 from a bad red neck sample. I got polled about boats this weekend!
Hopefully Scotty will rush to a crushing defeat and we can have 16 years of progress and climate action.
Thanks for last night, appreciated.
Dutton and Littleprodd as Opposition leaders I reckon IF they lose and IF Dutton keeps his seat.
There was a sky news poll yesterday on retiree rorts commented on here.
Anyone know if the Libs were able to fix it back in their favour?
I thought the name was suss but by golly there is such a department.
Poroti, isn't that a mother in laws website for those whose daughters married Europeans?
They also do divorce settlements.
Well with just 47 days to go I hope SOMEONE is preparing.
Should the government wind back tax concessions on property (negative gearing and capital gains) and shares (dividend tax refunds)?
DaretoTread, I got a laugh out of the story on Britain stockpiling rubber gloves so that customs could continue to search people.
TheAge has turned into another Murdoch rag.
Speculating that Labor will back off of the Refugee Bill.
They were all very rich people but some were more rich than others including access to liquid assets – others were asset rich but cash poor (by comparison).
Anyone for free internet for 3 months ?
Want free NBN for three months? Just display an anti-Nationals Party corflute in your front yard for the state and federal election campaigns and it's yours.
Lot of talk recently about extending the election date to late May, or even June.
What if it's a ruse?
The latest Lib onslaught – boats, dividends, neg gearing – may just be a way to harvest early postal votes for a March or April election.
Yes, zoomster, tomorrow could be Foucault?
If "having a guess" is any indication, this Newspoll is the 2nd most anticipated by PB since guessing started in September. By that metric the most anticipated Newspoll was October 28, last year.
And the next day, Marquis De Sade …..
me too! put me through a shredder and mix me with mulch.
You can mess with the mean, but the median stands firm.

What Week 15 means for the Seahawks playoff picture
/ by Lindsey Wisniewski
If the Seattle Seahawks (9-4) want to clinch their eighth playoff berth in nine years, they can do so on Sunday.
With a win or tie in the Seahawks 10 a.m. game at Washington (6-7) this weekend, the Seahawks could secure a spot in postseason play. They could also qualify for the playoffs should the Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears, both 6-7, tie in their 10 a.m. contest.
Subscribe to the Talkin' Seahawks podcast
If Seattle comes away victorious in Week 15, it sets up the Seahawks' next home game against the Los Angeles Rams (9-4) as a battle for the NFC West throne. This remains the case no matter what the outcome is between the Rams and Jets (0-13) on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.
The top seed in the NFC and the conference's only first-round bye is also still in play. Green Bay (10-3) is currently on top of the New Orleans Saints (10-4). The Packers beat the Saints 37-30 in the third game of the season.
Green Bay will host Carolina (4-9) on Saturday, while New Orleans will welcome Kansas City (12-1) on Sunday.
As of now, the Seahawks currently hold the fifth of seven playoff sports in the NFC and the first Wild Card spot. If the playoffs were to start today, Seattle would play this week's opponent, the fourth-seeded Washington Football Team, in the first round.
To say the stakes are high for Seattle in these next few weeks would be an understatement. But, in Seahawks fashion, expect a down-to-the-wire finish and a mad dash to the finish as the final three games of the 2020 regular season come to a close.

Following the evidence: enteral tube placement and verification in neonates and young children.
Clifford P, Heimall L, Brittingham L, Finn Davis K. Following the evidence: enteral tube placement and verification in neonates and young children. J Perinat Neonatal Nurs. 2015;29(2):149-61.
Enteral tube placement in hospitalized neonates and young children is a common occurrence. Accurate placement and verification are imperative for patient safety. However, despite many years of research that provides evidence for a select few methods and clearly discredits the safety of others, significant variation in clinical practice is still common. Universal adoption and implementation of evidence-based practices for enteral tube placement and verification are necessary to ensure consistency and safety of all patients. This integrative review synthesizes current and seminal literature regarding the most accurate enteral tube placement and verification methods and proposes clinical practice recommendations.

The last body was found at the end of July, twenty-one weeks after the avalanche.
Premise/plot: Gary Krist's The White Cascade is a compelling nonfiction read about a tragic disaster. On March 1, 1910 an avalanche swept two trains off the track and into the canyon below. But that's not quite the whole story--the trains had been trapped on the side of the snowy mountain for six days. Snow slides kept trapping all traffic on the tracks. It was a demanding, never-ending, no-relief-in-sight job to keep the tracks clear of snow. And this week/weekend proved impossible. The storm was relentless.
The White Cascade tells the story--the weather, the storms, the history of the railway, the management by James Henry O'Neill, the passengers and workers. It was an intense situation for all parties involved. Intense for O'Neill who was responsible--not for the weather, mind you, that would be nonsense--but for how the railroad chose to deal with the weather. He was in charge of which trains went where. He was in charge of determining which tracks stayed open, which tracks closed down; he was in charge of rerouting trains. He was in charge of managing resources--men, coal, other supplies, etc. It was also intense for the passengers on board the two trains. One train was a fast mail train who up until this time had had a great record for being dependable and on time. The other train was an express passenger train. Nobody stepped on that train expecting anything other than a quick train ride. Unfortunately it was worst case scenario almost from the start.
My thoughts: I don't know if a book could get any bleaker than The White Cascade. The passengers soon became aware--after the first day or two--of the risks and dangers of being STUCK on the side of a mountain in a precarious place. True, there were attempts to calm them down by saying that this particular location had never been the site of a slide or avalanche before...but...common sense told most if not all of the adults that that meant NOTHING. There was much talk of doing something--demanding to see O'Neill, demanding the railway move the train somewhere else, demanding the railway try to rescue passengers and get them down off the mountain another way, demanding more be done to clear the tracks so the train could be on its way. There was this waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. Would the storm pass? Would the weather improve? Were higher temperatures a good thing or a bad thing? Was it safer to stay on the train and wait out the storm? Was it safer to hike down the mountain on foot? (Some passengers did choose to hike down the mountain. It was difficult going--not without some risk--but it was possible.) Still not everyone could hike down the mountain--what about the mothers with young children? What about the elderly? the sick?
This was a compelling read. I read it in two days--it was intense and heartbreaking.
I don't know if it's possible to "love" a book this bleak, but, I love how well-researched this one was.
I listened to the audio-book "The Christmas Train" by David Baldacci last month. A totally different outcome (it's romantic fiction with some humor) but interesting that it is the same premise as The White Cascade - a passenger train trapped by snow.

Aloha, TCC! Forensic doc grateful for his roots
August 13, 2014 | TCC News, news@tcc.edu
Robert Mann graduated from Tidewater Community College in 1978 with a 3.8 GPA and an associate of applied science in education. He transferred to The College of William and Mary, where a class in osteology sparked his interest in bones. Encouraged by his professor there to study under the best, he transferred to the University of Tennessee to work under renowned forensic anthropologist Bill Bass.
He was on the team that identified remains in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, excavated graves in a Russian cemetery and navigated Easter Island with famed Norwegian anthropologist and explorer Thor Heyerdahl.
Robert Mann was brought on to assist with identifying the victims of the Pentagon after 9/11, called to Guam after a Korean airliner crashed and traveled to Thailand following the 2004 tsunami. He teaches part time at five medical schools and two colleges in addition to his primary job – forensic anthropologist and director of the Forensic Science Academy at the Central Identification Laboratory in Hawaii. It is the largest forensic skeletal lab in the world.
A high school dropout, Mann credits Tidewater Community College for laying the foundation for a career he finds as fascinating today as he did 30 years ago – the study of bones.
As a 27-year-old discharged from the Navy, Mann had interests that ranged from writing music to racing cars. But realizing the value of an education and his desire to "take his life in a different direction," he enrolled at TCC in 1976. "I didn't know what I wanted to do, and money was a premium," said Mann, who made the daily commute from his Virginia Beach home to the old Portsmouth Campus, now the Center for Workforce Solutions.
Mann, who had never applied himself before academically, embraced the math, biology, history and writing classes at the college. "In high school, it was about getting through," he said. "For the first time in my life, I wanted to get good grades in college, and I was interested in learning."
Mann recalls his American Literature professor at TCC poking fun at his tendency to write "flowerly."
"That stuck with me and is something I still think about today when I write," said Mann, who has authored four books and 115 scholarly articles. "I tend to be very animated and descriptive when I teach and have to remind myself to be careful when writing."
Mann graduated from TCC in 1978 with a 3.8 GPA and an associate of applied science in education. He transferred to The College of William and Mary, where a class in osteology sparked his interest in bones. Encouraged by his professor there to study under the best, he transferred to the University of Tennessee to work under renowned forensic anthropologist Bill Bass.
It was there at what is commonly referred to as the Body Farm, a place he calls "a school for the living, taught by the dead," he became even more immersed in piecing together skeletal remains to tell a life story.
Robert Mann on Easter Island, 1989
After earning his bachelor's and master's from Tennessee, Mann briefly worked at the Shelby County Morgue in Memphis before a five-year stint as an anthropologist at the Smithsonian Institution. While in Washington, he examined thousands of skeletons, assisting with the identification of Jeffrey Dahmer's first victim and traveled to Easter Island where he and two other anthropologists met up with Heyerdahl.
Mann vividly recalls going to the small airport on Rapa Nui to meet "Senor Kon Tiki," as he was known on the island. "I had read 'Kon Tiki' as a boy, and from that day on, always admired him for his bravery, explorer mentality and determination. Seeing Thor for the first time as he exited the terminal that day made me feel like I was seeing one of the Beatles. He was truly larger than life."
Mann, a diplomate of the American Board of Forensic Anthropology and the first anthropologist to be inducted as a Fellow in the College of Physicians of Philadelphia in its 200-year history, has been at his current position in Hawaii since 1992. Although the field might unsettle those with sensitive stomachs, he has never found it anything but rewarding, particularly when he is able to assist a family with closure by positively identifying remains.
"Returning them to loved ones, what you can do for a family is really incredible," he said.
He and wife, Vara, also a community college alumnus, have lived on the island of Oahu for 18 years. A national speaker, he often refers to his TCC roots. "I'm a major proponent of community colleges," he said. "Why not? It's a community environment. You get good instructors. Some of the hardest classes I've taken were in community college. TCC paved my way for a career in anthropology and now I'm living the dream. I couldn't be happier."

PH begins quest for 5th straight basketball gold
MANILA — The Philippines launches its quest for a fifth straight gold medal and 18th overall Wednesday when it battles Singapore as the much-awaited basketball competitions of the 30th Southeast Asian Games get going at the Mall of Asia Arena.
A team managers' meeting was held Tuesday afternoon where final changes in the rosters of the competing teams in the men's and women's divisions can be made. Eight teams will see action in the men's class while four will compete in the women's side.
Vietnam, Myanmar, Singapore and the Philippines have been drawn to compete in Group A while Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Cambodia are in Group B.
Defending champion Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and Philippines are disputing the women's title.
Bernie Atienza, SEA Games basketball competition manager, said the basketball competition will be held as scheduled, one of the disciplines that have not been affected by Typhoon Tisoy.
"We are ready for it," said Atienza, also the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas deputy secretary general.
FIBA-appointed Technical Delegate Agus Antares Mauro, also the Southeast Asia Basketball Association secretary-general, conducted the draw in the presence of Ms. Tricia Rana, Metro Manila cluster head of the Philippine Southeast Asian Games Organizing Committee.
Tim Cone, coach of the Philippine team known as Gilas Pilipinas, was expected to submit his final 12-man roster during the team managers' meeting. Roger Pogoy, one of the original members of the squad, is out with injury while Asian Mythical team member Jayson Castro had been replaced by Kiefer also due to an injury.
The Gilas men's and women's squad will go into action boosted by the double win posted by the country's campaigners in the 3×3 basketball action last Monday.
The Philippines has won 17 of the 19 men's title, missing out on the crown only in 1979 and 1989. Malaysia has won 14 of the 18 women's crowns. The Gilas women's best finish in the games was a silver medal.
Pending Cone's announcement of who will replace Pogoy, making up the Gilas men's squad are Japeth Aguilar (Barangay Ginebra), June Mar Fajardo (San Miguel Beer), Marcio Lassiter (San Miguel Beer), Vic Manuel (Alaska), Stanley Pringle (Barangay Ginebra), Kiefer Ravena (NLEX), Jeth Troy Rosario (TNT), Chris Ross (San Miguel Beer), LA Tenorio (Barangay Ginebra), Christian Standhardinger (NorthPort), and Matthew Wright (Phoenix).
Making up the Gilas women are Ana Alicia Katrina Castillo, Afril Bernardino, Maria Beatrice Daez, France Mae Cabinbin, Janine Pontejos, Ria Joy Nabalan, Jack Danielle Animam, Eunique Chan, Marizze Andrea Tongco, Danica Therese Jose and Kelli Casey Hayes.
Gilas women's coach Patrick Aquino is also set to finalize his lineup due to an injury suffered by Gemma Miranda. (PR)

NFL News – Friday, November 19, 2021
November 21, 2021 by Mary Sanders
In this Friday's NFL news: Lamar Jackson misses second straight practice; Dallas signs Greg Zuerlein, Jeff Driskel to transition to tight end; and more. Don't miss the NFL news.
Lamar Jackson misses second consecutive practice
In Week 11 of the 2021 NFL Season the Ravens will face the Bears, however, some concern has arisen around Baltimore this week as, this Thursday, QB Lamar Jackson was absent for the second day in a row from the training of the equipment due to an unspecified but unrelated illness from COVID-19.
Multiple reporters noted that Jackson was not present during the open media portion of the session. Through Jonas Shaffer's Baltimore SunOffensive coordinator Greg Roman commented early Thursday that he thought Jackson was feeling better. But apparently, the quarterback is still not well enough to make an appearance on the field.
Therefore, it will be necessary to remain pending this Friday the official Ravens injury report to determine the official status for next Sunday of a Jackson who has just come out of a particularly frustrating performance against the Dolphins in Thursday Night Football of Week 10. .
Finally, DB Jimmy Smith (hip), CB Tavon Young (foot) and center Bradley Bozeman (illness) returned to team training yesterday. However, WR Marquise Brown (thigh), WR Rashod Bateman, LT Alejandro Villaneuva, DT Brandon Williams (shoulder) and LB Pernell McPhee remained absent. How would Jackson's loss affect Baltimore's aspirations to win against Chicago?

Cowboys activate Greg Zuerlein
Good news for the Cowboys. This Thursday they confirmed that kicker Greg Zuerlein was activated from the COVID-19 Reserve, so he can return for next Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Zuerlein was absent from Dallas' win over Atlanta last week, and it was kicker Lirim Hajrullahu who came in, scoring five extra points on labor.
Zuerlein, a Missouri Western graduate, has hit 14 of 18 field goals and 21 of 23 extra points in 2021 in his second season as a member of the Cowboys. Also, 80% of his kickoff kicks have ended in touchbacks.
The 33-year-old veteran came to the NFL as a sixth-round pick for the Rams in 2012, where he remained until 2019 before coming to the Cowboys. During 10 years of professional career he has hit 249 of 304 field goals and 318 of 329 extra points. Finally, Dallas also recovered running back coach Skip Peete from the COVID-19 Reserve, who had also been absent last week. Can the Cowboys capitalize on the return of their best kicker?

Bears sign Bruce Irvin
A veteran is back in the NFL. This Thursday, via Ian Rapoport from NFL Media, LB Bruce Irvin was reported to be a new Bears player. The move is the product of Chicago having a hard time with the absence of LB Khalil Mack, who has yet to return to team practice due to a foot injury that has kept him out of the last two games. Therefore, those led by Matt Nagy have reinforced the position.
Irvin, a West Virginia graduate, came to the NFL as a first-round pick for the Seahawks in the distant 2012 draft, and this season he had remained an unrestricted free agent after having participated in only two games last season in a nothing fruitful return to Seattle.
Thus, the Bears will be the fifth team in the professional career of an Irvin who previously played with the Seahawks (2012-2015, 2020), Raiders (2016-2018), Falcons (2018) and Panthers (2019). Throughout his tenure in the league, he has registered 121 games played (92 as a starter), 16 forced fumbles, 308 tackles, 118 QB hits and 52 sacks; and at 34 he will try to generate a positive impact on the defense of Chicago. What can a veteran like Irvin bring to the Bears?

Jeff Driskel to transition from QB to TE
In more NFL news, during training camps and the previous offseason we saw former quarterback Tim Tebow's failed attempt to transition to tight end with the Jaguars. He was ultimately unsuccessful and was cut from the team, but this Thursday, a similar project came to light in the Texans. This is the now former QB Jeff Driskel, who has not played a single match in 2021 but who, to change this narrative, will make a transition to tight end, confirmed the team itself.
Houston tight ends coach Andy Bischoff referred to Driskel as a rare athlete who has the potential to contribute to both offense and special teams now that he will not be a quarterback. The Texans, until before this announcement, were a rare franchise with four active quarterbacks on the 53-man roster, but 2 of them have not played this 2021, Driskel and Deshaun Watson.
It is well known that Watson is expected to be out of the running for this entire season due to the troublesome alleged sexual assault that still surrounds him. But Driskel is ready to play now that he will make the transition, while QB Tyrod Taylor will remain as the team's starter and Davis Mills will serve as direct substitute.
Driskel, who came to the league as a 49ers sixth-round pick in 2016, is a fine athlete who offers versatility. In the Scouting Combine he ran 40 yards in 4.56 seconds and has averaged 5.8 yards per carry during the limited time he has walked the field the past three seasons between the Bengals, Lions and Broncos. It's certainly not easy to learn a new position, but that athleticism will give you an opportunity to make something of yourself as a tight end in the NFL. Will he make the transition or will it be another failed experiment?

Deus Ex's augmentations: awesome, but not wholly intuitive, fleshed out, nor balanced. GMDX adds new special effects, improves balancing, fixes various bugs, and adds new gameplay depth in the process.
Below is a small selection of augmentations, as an example of the improvements GMDX makes across the board.
Augmentations come in one of three flavors, "active", "passive", or "automatic.
ACTIVE: always requires activation/deactivation, and drains bioenergy.
PASSIVE: always active, and does not drain bioenergy.
AUTOMATIC: activated automatically as needed, and drains bioenergy.
Microfibral Muscle now enables you to Power Throw objects found in the environment, as in the sequels/prequels. Use left click/shoot when holding an object to Power Throw it. Power throwing heavy objects drains minor bioenergy.
These are exactly the same as their original counterparts, with one major new exception: they now give visual feedback rather than doing absolutely nothing visual when activated!
The "EUAS" (Environmental and User Assessment Subroutine) is a updated version of the 'IFF' augmentation. The EUAS handles all things HUD (including the IFF). Of note here is it can now be upgraded, which results in a light meter being displayed in the HUD which shows how visible the player is (light/dark) with a percentage readout.
The main difference here is these augmentations are (Automatic) — they'll turn on and off automatically when needed, saving you a lot of hassle. Synthetic Heart also uses a different formula to determine power drain: it now drains by a certain % of current energy drained, rather than adding a fixed number of additional drain. It can now also be upgraded to reduce the percent of additional drain. Do not underestimate Synthetic Heart out of habit from the original game!

Do I need a visa to re-check my luggage in Kuala Lumpur and India as an Australian citizen?
I'm travelling from Australia to Sri lanka and have two short stop overs in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Chennai,India. I need to check-in and also claim and check my luggage in at each stop-over. I do not intend to leave the airport as I am there for such a short amount of time. I am unsure whether I need a transit visa as I cannot find any conclusive information.
You are not technically in transit since you have to cross immigration, collect your bags, and then check in and board your next flight.
For the purposes of visas, this is not considered transit but rather a point-to-point journey. Your requirements would be the same if you were staying for 1 hour or 10 days since you are crossing immigration.
As an Australian citizen, you are entitled to visa-free access to Malaysia for 90 days.
Here is the exact text from Timatic, the database airlines use to confirm visa requirements.
Nationals of Australia with an emergency passport.
Visitors must hold return/onward tickets.
Minors up to and including 15 years of age may be listed in an accompanying adult's passport.

The biopsychological theory of personality is a model of the general biological processes relevant for human psychology, behavior, and personality. The model, proposed by research psychologist Jeffrey Alan Gray in 1970, is well-supported by subsequent research and has general acceptance among professionals.

Gray hypothesized the existence of two brain-based systems for controlling a person's interactions with their environment: the behavioural inhibition system (BIS) and the behavioural activation system (BAS). BIS is related to sensitivity to punishment and avoidance motivation. BAS is associated with sensitivity to reward and approach motivation. There is evidence that the Behavioral Inhibition and Behavioral Activations system are connected to mood control, with positive or negative emotions occurring when rewarded or punished. Those with a relatively high BAS are said to be extroverted and outgoing while those with a high BIS tend to be more reserved and introverted. Psychological scales have been designed to measure these hypothesized systems and study individual differences in personality. Neuroticism, a widely studied personality dimension related to emotional functioning, is positively correlated with BIS scales and negatively correlated with BAS scales.

History

The biopsychological theory of personality is similar to another one of Gray's theories, reinforcement sensitivity theory. The original version of Gray's reinforcement sensitivity theory of personality was developed in 1976 and Gray revised it independently in 1982. Then in 2000 further and more thorough revisions were made alongside McNaughton. The purpose of the revision was to adapt the theory according to new inputs of scientific findings since the 1980s. Reinforcement sensitivity theory arose from the biopsychological theory of personality. The Biopsychological Theory of Personality was created in 1970 after Gray disagreed with Hans Eysenck's arousal theory that dealt with biological personality traits. According to Eysenck, differences in extraversion are a result of differences in sensitivity of the ascending reticular activating system. People with less sensitive systems are not easily aroused and seek additional stimulation, resulting in an extraverted personality. People with more sensitive systems are overstimulated and try to avoid additional stimulation, resulting in an introverted personality.

The development of the biopsychological theory of personality occurred during Gray's time at Oxford where he was a fellow and lecturer.

Gray's main critique of Eysenck's theory was that introverts are not more sensitive to conditioning, but are more responsive to non reward and punishment. The evidence Gray collected for his hypothesis on the biological basis of personality comes from blink tests done on humans and studies done on animals injected with sodium amobarbital. Using animal subjects allows researchers to test whether different areas of the brain are responsible for different learning mechanisms. Specifically, Gray's theory concentrated on understanding how reward or punishment related to anxiety and impulsivity measures. His research and further studies have found that reward and punishment are under the control of separate systems and as a result people can have different sensitivities to such rewarding or punishing stimuli.

Behavioral inhibition system

The behavioral inhibition system (BIS), as proposed by Gray, is a neuropsychological system that predicts an individual's response to anxiety-relevant cues in a given environment. This system is activated in times of punishment, boring things, or negative events. By responding to cues such as negative stimuli or events that involve punishment or frustration, this system ultimately results in avoidance of such negative and unpleasant events. According to Gray's Theory, the BIS is related to sensitivity to punishment as well as avoidance motivation.  It has also been proposed that the BIS is the causal basis of anxiety. High activity of the BIS means a heightened sensitivity to nonreward, punishment, and novel experience. This higher level of sensitivity to these cues results in a natural avoidance of such environments in order to prevent negative experiences such as fear, anxiety, frustration, and sadness. People who are highly sensitive to punishment perceive punishments as more aversive and are more likely to be distracted by punishments.

The physiological mechanism behind the BIS is believed to be the septohippocampal system and its monoaminergic afferents from the brainstem. Using a voxel-based morphometry analysis, the volume of the regions mentioned was assessed to view individual differences. Findings may suggest a correlation between the volume and anxiety-related personality traits. Results were found in the orbitofrontal cortex, the precuneus, the amygdala, and the prefrontal cortex.

Behavioral activation system

The behavioral activation system (BAS), in contrast to the BIS, is based  on a model of appetitive motivation - in this case, an individual's natural disposition to pursue and achieve goals. The BAS is aroused when it receives cues corresponding to rewards and controls actions that are not related to punishment, rather actions regulating approachment type behaviors. This system has an association with hope. According to Gray's theory, the BAS is sensitive to conditioned appealing stimuli, and is associated with impulsivity. It is also thought to be related to sensitivity to reward as well as approach motivation. The BAS is sensitive to nonpunishment and reward. Individuals with a highly active BAS show higher levels of positive emotions such as elation, happiness, and hope in response to environmental cues consistent with nonpunishment and reward, along with goal-achievement. In terms of personality, these individuals are also more likely to engage in goal-directed efforts and experience these positive emotions when exposed to impending reward. BAS is considered to include trait impulsivity that is also related to psychopathological disorders such as ADHD, substance use disorder, and alcohol use disorder. The higher the BAS score, or the higher the impulsive, the more it is likely to be related to psycho-pathological or dis-inhibitory disorders. Certain aspects of the dopaminergic reward system activate when reward cues and reinforcers are presented, including biological rewards such as food and sex. These brain areas, which were highlighted during multiple fMRI studies, are the same areas associated with BAS.

Comparative Analysis of BIS and BAS
Together, the two systems work in an inverse relationship. In other words, when a specific situation occurs, an organism can approach the situation with one of the two systems. The systems will not be stimulated at the same time and which system is dominant depends on the situation in terms of punishment versus reward. This phenomenon of the differentiation between the two systems is thought to occur because of the distinct areas in the brain that becomes activated in response to different stimuli. This difference was noted years ago through electrical stimulation of the brain.

The behavioral activation system and behavioral inhibition system differ in their physiological pathways in the brain. The inhibition system has been shown to be linked to the septo-hippocampal system which appears to have a close correlation to a serotonergic pathway, with similarities in their innervations and stress responses. On the other hand, the activation, or reward system, is thought to be associated more with a mesolimbic dopaminergic system as opposed to the serotonergic system.

The two systems proposed by Gray differ in their motivations and physiological responses. Gray also proposed that individuals can vary widely in their responsiveness of the behavioral inhibition system and the behavioral activation system. It has been found that someone who is sensitive to their BIS will be more receptive to the negative cues as compared to someone who is sensitive to their BAS and therefore responds more to cues in the environment that relate to that system, specifically positive or rewarding cues.  Researchers besides Gray have shown interest in this theory and have created questionnaires that measure BIS and BAS sensitivity. Carver and White have been the primary researchers responsible for the questionnaire. Carver and White created a scale that has been shown to validly measure levels of individual scores of BIS and BAS. This measure focuses on the differences in incentive motivations and aversive motivations. As previously mentioned these motivations correlate to impulsivity and anxiety respectively.

Compare and Contrast of Biological Theories of Personality
It is important to analyze the difference between Eysenck's and Gray's theories of personality as Gray's theory itself arose from a critique of Eysenck's theory.  After Eysenck's biology based "top-down" theory of personality, Gray proposed an alternative, "bottom-up" explanation called the Biophsychological Theory of Personality. Contrary to his previous theory called the reinforcement sensitivity theory, the biopsychological theory of personality is a theory of personality that puts an emphasis on the differences among individuals in different areas of the brain that are responsible for the facets of personality.  Gray's Theory differed from Eysenck's as Eysenck's theory involved three dimensions: Extraversion, Neuroticism, and Psychoticism. Each dimension was related to how sensitive a person is to stimuli. For example, people who were rated as having stronger reactions to stimuli should be lower in Extraversion as the strong sensation is uncomfortable to them, according to Eysenck's theory.  Gray's theory relies more heavily on physiological explanation versus arousability which was used to explain Eysenck's theory. Gray's theory involves the Behavioral Activation System and Behavioral Inhibition System and how these systems affect personality. While different in some regard, it has also been proposed with some evidence that there is a correlation between Gray's BIS and Eysenck's Neuroticism. Gray's BAS also has evidence of correlation to Eysenck's Extraversion.

Applications

Since the development of the BAS and BIS, tests have been created to see how individuals rate in each area. The questionnaire is called the Behavioral Inhibition System and Behavioral Activation System Questionnaire.

People can be tested based on their activation of either systems by using an EEG.These tests will conclude whether a person has a more active BIS or BAS. The two systems are independent of each other.

These tests can determine different things about a person's personality. They can determine if a person has more positive or negative moods. Using psychological test scales designed to correlate with the attributes of these hypothesized systems, neuroticism has been found to be positively correlated with the BIS scale, and negatively correlated with the BAS scale.

According to Richard Depue's BAS dysregulation theory of bipolar disorders, now doctors and other professionals can determine if a person with bipolar disorder is on the brink of a manic or depressive episode based on how they rate on a scale of BAS and BIS sensitivity. Essentially, this dysregulation theory proposes that people with BAS dysregulation have an extraordinarily sensitive behavioral activation system and their BAS is hyper-responsive to behavioral approach system cues. If a person with bipolar disorder self-reports high sensitivity to BAS, it means that a manic episode could occur faster. Also, if a person with bipolar disorder reports high sensitivity to BIS it could indicate a depressive phase. A better understanding of BAS dysregulation theory can inform psychosocial intervention (e.g. cognitive behavioral therapy, psychoeducation, interpersonal and social rhythm therapy, etc.).

The BAS/BIS Questionnaire can also be used in the cases of criminal profiling. Previous research as reported by researchers MacAndrew and Steele in 1991 compared two groups on opposite spectrum levels of fear and the response of a variety of questions. The two groups in the study varied on levels of BIS, either high or low, and were selected by the researchers. One group was composed of women who had experienced anxiety attacks and together made up the high BIS group. The low BIS group was composed of convicted prostitutes who had been found to take part in illegal behavior. Main findings showed that the responses to the questionnaires were distinctly different between the high BIS group and the low BIS group, with the convicted women scoring lower. Results from this study demonstrate that questionnaires can be used as a valid measurement to show differences in the behavioral inhibition systems of different types of people.
Gray also introduced his SPSRQ questionnaire to measure sensitivity to reward (SR) and sensitivity to punishment (SP) in anxiety (2012). It is a specifically designed questionnaire linking to Gray's theory referencing the SR to the BAS and the SP to the BIS.

Singapore Zoo's resident polar bear Inuka is in declining health and may be put to sleep after a health examination later this month, said the Wildlife Reserves Singapore (WRS) on Thursday (Apr 12).
The 27-year-old polar bear, the first to be born in the tropics, was examined by a veterinary team last Tuesday, and the results showed that its health is "declining markedly", WRS said.
A second veterinary examination has been scheduled for late April "to give further clarity" on its health. If results indicate that Inuka's health is not improving, vets may have to "make the very difficult decision" to put it to sleep, WRS said.
"While daily polar bear interaction sessions have been suspended to allow Inuka to enjoy his time as he pleases, fans can continue to visit him at Singapore Zoo's Frozen Tundra," WRS said.

Keynote Interview: Ruth Suehle
Submitted by Larry Cafiero on Fri, 2015-02-20 13:02
The odyssey that brought Ruth Suehle to the keynoter's post for SCALE 13x is . . how can we put this? . . . unique. But we'll let her tell the tale while we inform you that Ruth is keynoting on Sunday at SCALE 13x. The SCALE Team caught up with Ruth to talk to her about Sunday's keynote.
Q: Could you please introduce yourself and tell us a little about your background?
A: I was genetically engineered with Kree technology to develop advanced technology for the human race. But there was an unfortunate incident with one of the Infinity Gems that rendered me essentially an ordinary human. So I did the second best thing and started working for Red Hat almost eight years ago on their brand team. For the last few years, I've worked on community instead on Red Hat's Open Source and Standards team. Last year I co-authored a book on Raspberry Pi (http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920029083.do), and that's just one edge of my interest in all things maker-y. If you can sew it, bake it, crochet it, paint it, melt it, glue it, solder it, Dremel it, or somehow make it better by setting it on fire, I've probably tried it at least once.
Q: You're giving a talk on "Makers: The Next Frontier for Open Source." Without tipping your hand on the actual talk, can you give us an idea of what we might expect?
A: A lot of words on "Makers: The Next Frontier for Open Source." And a bunch of pictures. Also I talk really fast. On the other hand, it's Sunday morning, and SCALE is pretty good at the Saturday night party, so possibly slower than usual.
More seriously, I'll be talking about the maker community in a broad way. But the crux of it is how important open source is for this burgeoning community and how it's critical for you -- the people who have already learned the lessons of open source through software -- to become involved and lead so that those successes can be realized in hardware and throughout the makerverse.
Q: Can you give us your impressions of SCALE?
A: One of my favorite events of the year. I've been coming for about five years, and I've given talks on open source in pop culture, openness beyond code (such as in business and education), and this year about makers. At some conferences, people keep to themselves and the small groups they know, but at SCALE, everyone is a friend, and anyone else is a friend you haven't met yet. And as a North Carolina resident, I also appreciate the annual opportunity to hit In 'n Out. This year I /really/ appreciate that I'm not back on the east coast in history-making cold temperatures!
Q: You are also hosting Weakest Geek this year. Who are you rooting for?
A: It would be inappropriate to pick favorites, even if one contestant is on my team at Red Hat. I do hope that Gareth doesn't make any awkward errors about Stargate this year -- the audience at Weakest Geek is a tough crowd. Things can turn ugly. But Gareth's instructions regarding the questions was to "bring it on," to which I say: http://bit.ly/1Lkg0BR
I hope they're ready.

Plus, it's only 4 miles to Nokomis Beach and about 10 miles to world famous Siesta Key Beach.


Three games in four nights — starting tonight in Philadelphia — will help decide whether the Blue Jackets return to the playoffs for just the second time in franchise history.
According to Sports Club Stats, Columbus has a 79.9 percent chance of qualifying for the postseason. A record in the neighborhood of 3-3-1 in the team's final seven games should get the job done.
After tonight's game, the Jackets return home to face the Blackhawks (who are minus Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane for the rest of the regular season) on Friday, and then the Islanders Sunday.
If they can get four points out of those three games, they'll be sitting nicely with a home game against Phoenix on Tuesday, followed by a three-game road trip (to Dallas, Tampa Bay, and Florida) to close out the schedule.
If they somehow blow it, they'll have wasted a golden opportunity to give their long-suffering fans some playoff excitement.
Despite the team's struggles since entering the NHL in 2000, there remains a feeling that Columbus could be an outstanding hockey market, if only the Jackets were more successful on the ice. It's not a city with much in the way of pro-sports competition, and the biggest show in town — Ohio State football — only runs until January (at the latest).

Posters are large print documents designed to grab attention. A few standard poster sizes are 11" × 17", 16" × 20", 18" × 24", and 24" × 36". You have flexibility in choosing the size of your poster, depending on whether it will be on a corner lightpost, the break room, or a school bulletin board. All of the poster templates in Lucidpress are set to 18" × 24".
Your audience needs to take in the message of your poster at a glance. Choose your alignment—left, centered, right, or justified—and apply it to your headers, photos, text, and shapes. Unify the elements of your poster by aligning objects and text. This will make the poster feel coherent. Text is often centered, creating a sense of symmetry.
Photographs and other graphics can visually communicate a message in ways that words can't. Have a balance between text and images that complement and relate to each other. With larger posters you will want to make sure you have the highest-resolution version of the photo possible. Don't upload low resolution files of photos, otherwise your printed poster won't look its best. Use photos which have been saved at a minimum of 300 pixels per inch at poster size for printing.
Posters are designed to grab attention. A good eye for color can direct your audience to the core parts of your message. Choose colors that complement your photographs and your message. For example, if you are advertising a farmers' market, the color green can evoke freshness and nature. A poster can make a big impact even with a limited color palette—too many colors can distract from your message. Black and white posters provide good legibility for simple posters. There are several tools online to help you choose a color scheme, including Adobe's Kuler. This tool lets you upload a photograph and select complementary colors to use in your background or text.
Keep your headers and titles simple. Use a larger font size for headers, which helps you determine the first thing your audience sees. Grab your audience's attention with contrasts in font sizes, style, and color. If using multiple font faces, choose ones that are different enough to look deliberate. As a rule of thumb, don't use more than two font faces in a document. Use font weight (bold) to differentiate sections of text. The use of ALL CAPS and italics also draw attention to particular points of a message. Keep text limited to your core message so your audience knows What, Where, and When.
Ready to make your poster?
Posters aren't simply advertising tools: the best poster designs become works of art. Whether you're creating a poster for a movie, a party, or to decorate your home or office, Lucidpress has the templates you need. The Lucidpress editor is intuitive enough for a beginner but customizable enough for advanced poster creators.

Lionel Messi was suspicious about Kylian Mbappe with duo set for World Cup final showdown
By dailysunpost_1rcpnd December 15, 2022 Sport No Comments4 Mins Read
Before the World Cup, Kylian Mbappe was in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. A report claimed Lionel Messi had grown 'suspicious' of his Paris Saint-Germain team-mate, with Sergio Ramos even said to be in agreement with him. Now, football is eagerly anticipating a showdown between the two icons on the grandest stage of all…
It was claimed just mere months ago that Mbappe was looking to leave PSG, having grown tired at the way he was used by manager Christophe Galtier.
And Messi was apparently 'suspicious' of his domestic team-mate, along with Ramos, with the pair believing the 23-year-old was acting like a spoilt brat behind the scenes.
It was even stated the two figures, who used to clash regularly during their respective spells at Barcelona and Real Madrid, had been brought 'closer' in their dislike of Mbappe.
Now, the two men are poised for the ultimate battle.
Argentina booked their place in the World Cup final on Tuesday night with a comfortable 3-0 win over Croatia, with Messi enchanting everyone throughout the showdown at the Lusail Stadium.
The 35-year-old opened the scoring from the penalty spot, blasting his effort into the top corner well beyond the reach of goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic.
And Messi then upped the ante to provide two assists for Julian Alvarez, with the Manchester City star taking his chances with aplomb.
Mbappe was unable to net as France met Morocco on Wednesday evening.
But it was another fine night for Les Bleus, who booked their place in the final courtesy of goals from Theo Hernandez and Randal Kolo Muani.
In many ways, the battle between Messi and Mbappe is a fight between the present of football – and its future.
Messi isn't the player he used to be, something that's clear given at the way his goalscoring stats have diminished as he approaches the twilight years of his career.
Yet he is still one of the best in the world and his mesmerising tournament in Qatar is proof he isn't done yet.
Messi can still dribble, create and score when needed. He will very much be the man France need to stop if they're to join an elite club by winning consecutive World Cup crowns.
Then there's Mbappe, the heir to his throne.
The PSG star has put aside his woes back home to emerge as France's talisman once again this tournament, even if he's drawn a blank in his side's last two matches.
Mbappe fired France to glory four years ago in Russia, saving his best performance until the final that year.
And Argentina will need to be at their best to keep the rapid 23-year-old at bay as they look to win the World Cup for the first time since 1986.
There will be little to choose between the two teams when they step out onto the field on Sunday afternoon.
But Rio Ferdinand, speaking on BBC Sport, thinks Messi and his team-mates will be 'licking their lips' when they tackle the defending champions.
"I think as good as France are, I think Messi and his team will be sitting there licking their lips a little bit and can see themselves exploiting certain areas," he said.
"That left-hand side for France, when France were run at at times there was panic, and when you've got [Julian] Alvarez and Messi dancing and jiggling around, it's going to be really, really hard."
Yet Alan Shearer thinks France's experience can be key.
"I get that but you go back to how experienced that France team is, they've been there and they know how to get over the line," he stated.
"I think they will definitely look at what Rio highlighted in terms of the left-hand side.
"That's what Morocco tried to do, Hakim Ziyech in particular and that's what Messi will try and do and Messi or Alvarez could have some joy and success and creating chances definitely."

Palm oil in Latin America. Does it have solutions for food, sustainable development and green energy?
No true conservation minded netizen can forget the moment when Ecuador became " the first country to recognize Rights of Nature in its Constitution. A great first step for humanity towards a change of paradigm!
Ecuador rewrote its Constitution in 2007-2008 and it was ratified by referendum by the people of Ecuador in September 2008.
But as the needs of its peoples grew and global commitments to save tropical forests failed to come through, Ecuador has had to back track from its ideals and opened up Yasuni National Park, one of the most important areas for global biodiversity, to crude oil extraction.
Yasuni National Park may yet have a lifeline as the vote to reduce crude oil extraction looks like the crude oil exploration/ extraction areas may be reduced in respect of local sentiment.
Crude oil remains one of Ecuador's main sources of export revenue before bananas and flowers but its main import is also fossil fuels in the form of refined petroleum.
In light of the urgent need to keep fossil fuels in the ground to fight climate change, is palm oil a viable solution to meet Ecuador's needs for sustainable development while preserving key global biodiversity areas like Yasuni National Park?


Getting something in your eye can be painful, and scary. The first step is to rinse out your eye. Many workplaces will have an eyewash station that you can use for this purpose, or you can use a steady stream of clean, lukewarm water. Remove contact lenses if you wear them, but never try to remove an object that appears embedded in your eye. Even if you think the object was dislodged during the rinsing, and especially if you experience discomfort, redness, or blurred vision, it is important to get your eye checked by a doctor of optometry. They may prescribe eye drops for a few days to prevent you from developing an infection. If you work in an industrial environment, your doctor of optometry can also help fit you with proper safety glasses to protect you from injury.
What do you do if you get a contact lens stuck in your eye?
If your contact lens is lost or stuck in your eye, don't panic: it can't get lost in the back of the eye. Call your doctor of optometry – many optometrists hold appointments in their schedule for eye care emergencies, and they should be able to see you the same day. Optometrists are able to use eye-safe dyes and specialized instruments to locate the contact lens and safely remove it. If you keep trying to remove it on your own, your eye could become irritated and you might put yourself at risk for scratching the surface of your eye. If your contact gets stuck late at night and your optometrist's office is closed, it is usually safe to wait until the next morning. However, if you are experiencing pain and blurred vision and your optometrist's office is closed, then it is safest to visit your local hospital's emergency room.


Welcome to Firm Level Economics: Consumer and Producer Behavior!
we are going to spend time thinking about how consumers and producers behave.
Consumers have certain rules in their head.
They think about what it costs them to buy the product.
Producers think about what it costs them to produce the product.
The whole issue here is scarcity.
we're going to establish the rules of about how markets determine this rationing process.
How markets control the rationing process using prices.
Products that are very scarce, price will drift up.
That drifting up in price will cause some consumers to say, "It's not worth it to me.
I'm not going to keep giving up all those green sheets of paper."
get more people in to solve this scarcity issue.
well, I really care about residuals.
That is what we call profits.
I'm going to get some revenue but I also have costs.
that's where costs come from.
and the end result is going to be an allocation.
