The Glorious Galapagos Islands
Sam Richards — 1 July 2019
Evolution may now be decoded, but the allure of the Galapagos Islands remains. The natural wonders which amazed Darwin live on, as bountiful as ever.
First comes the HMS Beagle. The year is 1831. Onboard, we find Charles Darwin, a recently graduated medical scholar who has opted to be the naturalist aboard this vessel, which has the objective of surveying and mapping the coasts of the world.
Four years in, the Beagle arrives in the Galapagos Islands, where the crew are to spend five weeks exploring.
During this time Darwin heads onshore to make observations and collect specimens. One can picture the famous scientist, with his trademark white beard (whether this was factually accurate at the time or not), leaning down and loading specimens into his bumbag, staring through binoculars and craning his ear to the distant tweet of finches.
What strikes him most is the bizarre and rare nature of the species. But he does, also, notice that animals on different islands that are meant to be the same species are showing glaring differences, which appear to be adaptive.
It's only later that he starts to put together his world-changing theories. Working backwards, he realises that traits that aid survival are passed on through generations. In this way species evolve, differently, depending on what aids survival in each unique environment.
The endemic species of the Galapagos were crucial to this realisation.
THEN CAME THE M/Y GRACE
Now comes Grace Kelly's Honeymoon Yacht. Wait a moment – who's that?
Let's begin at the beginning. The boat actually preceded Grace; it was made in 1928. Grace was born the next year. Weighing in at 298 tonnes and measuring 147 feet long (the boat, not Grace), the vessel changed hands among the rich and famous, before becoming property of the military during WW2, during which it participated in various skirmishes, including the successful capture of a German boat.
After the smoke had settled, the 'wartorn' vessel was returned back to the previous owner. Upon this gentleman's death, Aristotle Onassis, a Greek shipping magnate, inherited it for use in his charter company.
By this point it was the golden age of television and Grace, 26, had rocketed to fame through her acting. But she gave up all of that to marry Rainier, the Prince of Monaco. The only thing missing was a yacht, but that was remedied quickly when Onassis gave them the boat as a wedding present in 1953.
They owned it for five years, cruising up and down the coasts for their honeymoon. Then it changed hands again and commenced another interminable trajectory, that has seen it end up in the hands of Quasar Expeditions.
Now, after refitting and refurbishing, the vessel is suitable for 18 guests, and it tours through the Galapagos on seven night, eight day tours that involve kayaking, hiking, snorkelling and wildlife observation. It seems to have, finally, found a reliable home.
MODERN DAY DARWIN
Part of the Galapagos Islands' appeal is the opportunity to follow in Darwin's footsteps. Visitors can observe, in the same way Darwin did, the wondrous species that abound here.
And so what if visitors are not tossing about below the masts of the HMS Beagle nowadays, but are instead enjoying the luxuries accorded to Monaco's royalty. Is that such a bad thing?
EXAMPLE ITINERARY WITH QUASAR EXPEDITIONS

1. The Shiva Sutra says , sit with spine straight up , feet Padmaasana while you meditate .
The Kundalini Shakthi flows straight upward thru the centre sushumna naadi and activativates the pathway as well as touches the aagya chakra and activates the non-mechanical ( in Sri Nithyananda Swami 's words ) parts of the brain .
Yoga should be performed , sitting in straight posture .
C1 to C8 , T1 to T12 and L 1 to L5 and the sacral / base of spine !
These are also nadi points thru which the cosmic energy floods into the physical , mental and emotional levels of that point . When the spine is straight , cosmic energy floods in thru the Sahasraara ( crown chakra ) and enters in thru all these nadi points . The picture shows the Organs and Diseases connected to the parts/ centre points of the spine . This sitting posture ( sitting with spine straight ) heals all these organs , the diseases , heals the connected emotional blocks , and strengthens the allied mental frame making thinking positive !
4. When spine is straight , cosmic energy floods in thru the sahasraar , Kundalini shakthi rises up the spine , whole being radiates divine healing energy and bliss !


This is one client that I really wish I got a picture of the first time she came to me. Her hair used to be very short, I'm talking shaved on the sides and in the back with a little hair on the top to style. It was also much thinner. She said that after her second child, who is now in middle school, was born her hair got noticeably thinner. Before then it was very thick, but never seemed to be the same again after child number two. She was going to a professional hairstylist but said that her hair would never grow. She never got it cut and it still never grew. She told me that she had just made herself accept the fact that she would always have short hair. She wanted it to grow but had no idea what to do.
She began coming to me a little over one year ago and I immediately began giving her hair some t.l.c. I gave it a good shampoo and deep conditioning treatment with Silk Hydration by L. Jones products. She also bought some Silk Hydration products for her own personal home usage. I also encouraged her to start stretching her relaxers out. Just like many other women, she was getting a relaxer every 6 weeks. We began doubling that to twelve weeks and are now working our way up to sixteen.
In between relaxers I used Silk Hydration by L. Jones Clarifying Shampoo on her hair first. Then I followed up with Silk Hydration by L. Jones Moisturizing Shampoo (which was the old formula and still produced great results, it is now new, improved, and even better!). Next I would use Silk Hydration by L. Jones Intense Moisturizing Treatment on it to soften it up and give it that silky feel. After rinsing that out, I sprayed Silk Hydration by L. Jones Leave-In Conditioner on it to give it an extra layer of moisture and also a layer of heat protectant. Then I would mold her hair down with foam wrap and put her under the hair dryer.
After her hair was completely dry I would then flat iron it and style. For the finishing touch I sprayed Silk Hydration Miracle Potion no.9 to give it shine and protect from humidity. She said even her co-workers have noticed a difference in her hair. One of them even asked her was she now going to a different hairstylist because she noticed how thick, healthy, and long her hair has gotten! She can now actually wrap her hair around her head which she says is the easiest way to manage her hair now. She wraps it then unwraps it the next morning and does not put any more heat in it until she is ready to shampoo it again.
Now her hair is past ears and approaching covering the back of her neck. Her goal is to get it about neck length so she can have a bob. And at the rate her hair is growing she will have that in no time.. This client is proof that your hair can and will grow. You only have to be willing to do your part in helping it. And finding a great hairstylist would not hurt either, that way you can simply maintain what the stylist did instead of having to tackle your hair all on your own. Keep the heat to a maximum of once per week or less. Shampoo every week. Keep your ends trimmed every 10-12 weeks. And most importantly, wrap your hair every night!! Do these simple things and watch how fast your hair starts growing.

Back in the old days, you were a tough guy if you knew how to hold a sword. This illusion of sword being the best tool for world conquest only started to shatter when tough guys started to notice that their ladies were fawning over the pale, fragile and sickly type of people who were more likely to pick up a quill and scribble down some sweet little nothings. The proverb of pen and sword was most likely invented by those fawning ladies when they were trying to comfort the poets who had gotten beaten down by jealous boyfriends.
Not many tough guys know how to wield a sword nowadays – and, sadly, many of them don't know how to wield a pen either. Keyboard comes to our rescue, but even when it has made writing a whole lot easier, it hasn't made it more popular. I wonder why that is? Haven't people yet realized that writing is the optimal tool for life, made of win?
Maybe not. I mean, that's why I'm here, writing for you about writing. Maybe some of these things come off as a surprise, but I hope that you take them to your heart and start wondering if you could pick up that keyboard for something else than good old game of Frets On Fire.
Out of all the forms of art, writing is the one that can has the greatest effect. I'm not going to mention how writing as an art form is the best way to reach out to people, their minds and their hearts – that should be an obvious fact. Instead I'm going to talk about how writing doesn't only have an effect on the world around you. It can have a great effect on you.
From a biologist's point of view, writing when you are stressed is most useful. Writing consecutively for 20 minutes exchanges all hormones in your brains, including the ones that stress you out and make you feel like a puddle of vomit on the floor. Later you can read the piece of text you wrote – no matter how long or how short – as an expressionistic form of art.
From a psychologist's point of view, writing is a way to organize your thoughts. You ever have one of those moments when all your thoughts are racing back and forth and you can't make out what exactly is going on in your mind? Writing thoughts down, one by one, especially if you include the emotions related to each one, gives you a peace of mind. Even if you don't know how to write a whole essay about your feelings, it's scientifically proven that simply making lists about your thoughts has proven useful.
From a social scientist's point of view, writing is a way of expressing yourself to the politicians. Even when it might sound utopistic, politicians work for you and your life. If they don't know what you want, they're going to do what they want. If you're unhappy for that and you never spoke out, you can only blame yourself.
And, finally, from an author's point of view: writing is a way to solve your inner conflicts. Try writing yourself in a story. Let the main character solve the problems you have. You might be surprised – maybe the similar methods could work in your own life. And since they originate from your own imagination, maybe that's exactly what you want to do.
All you need to have is some faith in your own imagination and the fact that there is a difference you can make in yourself. Just write it out.

PRRD quits plan to fix EDSA traffic; "Ayaw ko na rin"
BY MSN: President Duterte has given up on his plan to address the worsening traffic situation in Metro Manila, particularly along EDSA as he blamed Congress for refusing to grant him emergency powers.
In a one-on-one with chief presidential legal counsel Salvador Panelo on Tuesday, Duterte said he no longer wants emergency powers to solve the traffic woes in the metropolis.
BY THE STAR: Duterte said he would leave it to the next administration to fix the traffic situation in Metro Manila.
EDSA TRAFFIC PROBLEM: The urban density of Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is one the highest of the world and the rate of motorization far exceeds the street capacity to handle traffic. The setting of the city between Manila Bay to the West and Laguna de Bay to the South limits the opportunities to spread traffic from the south on many axes of circulation. Built in the 1940's, the circumferential highway EDSA, named after historian Epifanio de los Santos, seems permanently clogged by traffic, even if the newer C-5 beltway tries to provide some relief. Among the causes of EDSA perennial difficulties, one of the major factors is the concentration of major shopping malls and business districts alongside its course. A second major problem is the high number of bus terminals, particularly in the Cubao area, which provide interregional service from the capital area but add to the volume of traffic. While authorities have banned jeepneys and trisikel from using most of EDSA, this has meant that there is a concentration of these vehicles on side streets, blocking the smooth exit of cars. The current paper explores some of the policy options which may be considered to tackle congestion on EDSA.

Toronto Wrap-Up, Part Two
Abe Applebaum was the smartest kid in town, an Encyclopedia Brown-type who took on all manner of petty crimes and minor mysteries and solved them all — until a girl disappeared, never to be heard from again. Decades later, Abe is a grown up P.I. in the same small town when another real mystery rears its head. Working in the vein of Brick or Veronica Mars, Evan Morgan's The Kid Detective is an impressive exercise in tonal control, combining wry humor with some truly dark subject matter and cannily clever cynicism, but the biggest draw may be star Adam Brody. Though he's been steadily turning out some rock-solid supporting performances, The Kid Detective gives Brody a chance to flex his muscles in an impressively nuanced manner that sits with you long after the credits roll.
The first act of Michel Franco's New Order had me readying my Parasite comparisons — taking place at an upper-class wedding detached from the civil unrest in the surrounding city, Franco's roving camera and darkly comic script led me to believe that we might be in for a sharply drawn social satire. Alas, this all goes out the window fairly quickly as New Order devolves into brutal sadism that shifts the film from engaging to barely watchable. There are some interesting ideas here about state oppression, but the effectiveness of any cultural commentary is muddled by the sheer unpleasantness on display — New Order has the bleakest ending I've seen this year and I'm still struggling with the question of whether that nihilism is truly earned.
Good Joe Bell
Good Joe Bell is a bit of an enigma. Empathetically directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green, the film is genuinely affecting, imbued with real emotional weight, and features a moving (and often surprisingly unsympathetic) performance by Mark Wahlberg and a breakout by Reid Miller at the film's core. But despite this, the film's script — written by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana — lacks much nuance (especially when compared to their previous effort, Brokeback Mountain), and ultimately suffers from being a story of LGBTQ tragedy reflected through a straight lens. Even with Wahlberg's impressive portrayal, it's hard to see much growth in Joe Bell over the course of the narrative, leaving the film emptier than you would expect from the talent on display.
The revenge thriller is a fascinating horror sub-genre, one that often walks the line between empathy and exploitation to mixed results. Violation does an admirable job of navigating that passage, and is in many ways an ambitious and unflinching entry, with particularly excellent work from star and co-writer/director Madeleine Sims-Fewer. Unfortunately that same ambition hobbles Violation, as Sim-Fewer and co-director Dusty Mancinelli make use of a fractured narrative that, though conceptually intriguing, ends up more confusing than effective, undercutting the film's power. Even so, the film's willingness to force the audience to reckon with the cost of revenge — this is not a movie for the faint of heart — makes it worth a look.
Let's get this out of the way first: Shadow in the Cloud features some of the most truly atrocious dialogue I've ever heard in a movie, but given the circumstances of the film's production I'm willing to give writer-director Roseanne Liang the benefit of the doubt and attribute those flaws to disgraced original writer Max Landis (who retains a writing credit here). If you can get past the writing though, there's fun to be had with Shadow of the Cloud, which essentially repurposes The Twilight Zone's "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" to ludicrous effect — particularly in the film's back half, which makes the most of its limited budget to deliver some bonkers B movie fun.
Concrete Cowboy
Similar to Beans, Ricky Staub's Concrete Cowboy hits some fairly standard coming-of-age beats, but is elevated by the fresh context in which it's presented. The always reliable Idris Elba may be the above-the-title draw here, but Concrete Cowboy belongs to young stars Caleb McLaughlin and Jharrel Jerome, both of whom turn in excellent performances as youth trying to find their way amidst circumstances that set the odds against them. Inspired by Philadelphia's Fletcher Street Urban Riding Club (and featuring seamless amateur performances by some real-life members of said Club), Staub's film is at its best when it lets the plot lie and takes the time to spend a few moments with the riders — their joy and camaraderie is infectious and highlights the movie's heartwarming center.

Yup, Fort Collins Brewery is kinda a Big Shot these days. Especially in light of the fact that their popular winter brew FCB Big Shot Seasonal Ale is now back on shelves.
Big Shot, their quintessential winter warmer is a delightful hazelnut brown ale that's packed full of English malts and East Kent Golding hops for a scrumptious, rich, nutty flavor and delightful medium body. Perfect for sharing... or simply enjoying by yourself!
FCB's Big Shot is available in 22 oz bombers in select markets starting in early December. Need a gift for the Big Shot lover in your life? You're in luck, Big Shot retail is also available in the FCB tasting room while supplies last.
With it's festive holiday label, Big Shot makes the perfect White Santa gift for the holiday office gift exchange. Need more proof? I reviewed Big Shot in the past and thought it was well balanced with just the right amount of hops and spices.

Q: Awk ignores printing a single column. sh -c I'm having trouble trying to wrap this command inside the other command.
# Target Command:
/bin/df / | awk END' { gsub(/\%/, ""); print $5} '

# What I want:
/bin/sh -c " [command above goes here]"

I'm running into a problem with the awk and all the quotes...
I've tried:
bin/sh -c "/bin/df / | awk END' { gsub(/\%/, "'"''"'"); print $5} '"

But the problem is that awk doesn't seem to print only column $5 in this instance.
How can I fix the above command awk command to print only column 5 (of the last line)?
PS: what I'm trying to do is to get the percentage of disk used (excluding the % sign). Since I'm calling it from a program that doesn't support pipes in an easy way, I'm using sh -c.

A: You can use:
/bin/sh -c "/bin/df | awk 'END{gsub(/%/, \"\", \$5); print \$5}'"

$ also needs to be escaped.
As per @Ed's comment below if $5 is not available in END block in some versions of awk then use:
/bin/sh -c "/bin/df | awk '{p=\$5} END{sub(/%/, \"\", p); print p}'"

A: You need to escape the " and the $:
/bin/sh -c "/bin/df / | awk END' { gsub(/\%/, \"\"); print \$5} '"

The reason why you did not need to escape the $ in your original line is: because it was guarded by ''. But when you quote the ticks (with the double quotes) they lose that protective property.
The " need to be escaped because they would terminate your outermost double quotes too early.
But it is most likely easier to put everything into a shell script and start this. This also allows you some more lines like setting up the PATH and IFS and maybe doing platform specific searching of (g)awk and so on.
BTW: and I would add -x nfs (Linux) or -t nonfs,nullfs (BSD) if possible. Monitoring scripts are known to kill a system if started repeatingly (while the NFS server is unabaulable). Of course this asumes, you dont want to monitor NFS.

A: You can let bash do the heavy lifting with exported functions:
myfunc() {
  /bin/df / | awk 'END { gsub(/\%/, ""); print $5} '
}
export -f myfunc

bash -c "myfunc"

This way, you don't have to mess around with unreadable escaping.

July 12, - Published on Amazon. The story had a marvelous plot but there were too many characters who weren't well developed by the author. At times, this made the book difficult to understand but nonetheless I enjoyed reading it.
July 18, - Published on Amazon. I finished reading In Cold Light. I did not want it to end.
Will goes to the police and they lead him to Zahir Roschdy Zem , who knows where Will's family is. Salute these Emmy nominees. From there he finds out his dad isn't who he thought he was, and must recover a briefcase and save his family. Trivia When Henry Cavill turned up on set, he had just finished shooting Immortals and came sporting an extremely muscular and ultra-ripped physique. The way Bradley and friends handle their additional powers, is what makes this book so compelling. I just didn't care what was happening or if he saved his family.
Perhaps I will start it again to see if it will last longer. So easy to become involved in the characters and live in their world. I am anxious for their next adventure.
July 1, - Published on Amazon. It also had everything,mystery,paranormals,romance,and lots of murders that you have to solve. September 2, - Published on Amazon. The Cold Light of Tomorrow was an interesting book for me, as I don't read much outside of a few genres, and this isn't one of them.
Having said that, I downloaded it after reading the sample on Amazon, and found myself immersed in a well-written futuristic account of the survivors of a cosmic calamity, beginning anew in a dystopian Australia. The author uses a fair amount of Aussie vernacular, which can be confusing for US readers, but not so much that one can't follow along.
Mobu hairstyle daughter (picture collection)!
The backdrop is a richly articulated landscape populated by memorable characters engaged in a struggle to survive the unthinkable. All in all, a surprisingly because this isn't my genre engaging novel, and a strongly positive reading experience.

3 of Ree Drummond's Best Cheesecake Recipes, No Bake Edition
TL; DR:
Ree Drummond's cheesecake recipes include several no-bake versions.
The Pioneer Woman The host's no-bake cheesecake recipes include flavors such as lemon, spiced, and white chocolate raspberry.
Ree Drummond | Nathan Congleton/NBC/NBCU Photo Bank
There are many recipes for Ree Drummond cheesecake. After all, the creamy treat is on the cookbook author's list of beloved desserts. From burnt cheesecake to lemon pie cheesecake bars, she has a cheesecake recipe for every occasion. And that also applies to days when it is too hot to turn on the oven. Without further ado, here are some of Drummond's best cheesecake recipes, no bake edition.
1. Ree Drummond's No Bake Spiced Cheesecake
Forget the typical steps of making a cheesecake with this Pioneer Woman. As Drummond said in the episode "Easy and Elegant" of her Food Network show, her No-Bake Spiced Cheesecake involves her "going against the system left and right."
She adds "warm, tasty spices" to the filling. To promote a smooth texture, she adds some powdered sugar. It helps with "filling consistency because we're not going to bake this," Drummond explained.
What sets Drummond's cheesecake apart from the rest is that the crust doesn't need to be baked. All she does is combine gingersnap cookies, sugar and butter, according to food network† Then she presses on the bottom of a springform pan.
There is one element that is needed for a successful No-Bake Spiced Cheesecake and that is time. "The only thing to keep in mind is to have the time to chill it," Drummond said.

2. Ree Drummond's Best Cheesecake Recipes: No-Bake Lemon Cheesecake
Drummond considers her unbaked lemon cheesecake a "keeper." She once called it "lemonie magic" on her Facebook page, saying, "No egg in the cheesecake filling and no baking. Just chill time! But we could all use some chill time!"
She combines graham crackers and sugar in a food processor with melted butter to make the crust. After pressing it into the bottom of a pan, she puts it in the freezer to set. Meanwhile, she makes the lemon filling.
Drummond mixes cream cheese, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest and sour cream. Once it's combined, she gently folds in the whipped cream for a smooth texture. Finally, she puts the filling on top of the crust and puts it in the fridge overnight.
3. The Pioneer Woman's White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
Drummond's cheesecake recipes continue with this easy no-bake cheesecake. "It's as beautiful as a photo and best of all, it's incredibly easy to make," she said of the dish on The Pioneer Woman†
"This is simple and really impressive and the best part is I don't even have to turn on the oven," she explained. The filling is a combination of soft cream cheese, raspberry puree, lemon juice, powdered sugar and melted white chocolate.
As for the crust, it's another quick concoction of store-bought cookies, sugar, and butter. However, as Drummond shared, soft butter is essential. "This is a no-bake crust, so I'm just going to add softened butter," she said. "When I bake the crust, I usually put melted butter in it. Just being softened will keep it all together."

Contemporary Christian artists to perform in Wausau
Steven Curtis Chapman and Brandon Heath will perform in Wausau May 7.
Contemporary Christian artists to perform in Wausau Steven Curtis Chapman and Brandon Heath will perform in Wausau May 7. Check out this story on wausaudailyherald.com: http://wdhne.ws/1FUCclB

WAUSAU— A more unique music show is coming to Central Wisconsin.
The Table Tour — a concert series featuring Christian music artists and sponsored by an international anti-hunger organization — is scheduled to touch down in Wausau this May. Four acts — Steven Curtis Chapman, Brandon Heath, Ellie Holcomb and Love & The Outcome — are set to perform their own songs, tell the stories behind the lyrics and, sometimes, collaborate musically with each other during the concert.
Throughout the performance, there will be an actual physical table on stage, where the artists will periodically congregate during the show.
"I do love the idea that we're literally kind of sitting around the table," Chapman told Daily Herald Media, adding that, growing up, he and his family gathered around the kitchen table to create music.
The table is supposed to be representative of a place where people convene for sustenance and camaraderie, according to a news release.

"It's there to kind of represent a symbol of what the tour is about," Heath told Daily Herald Media.
The concert will be structured in a more unique format than traditional musical performances, where an artist may just go through a set of songs. During The Table Tour, the performers will discuss the narrative behind their songs.
Discussing the songs' underlying inspirations, Chapman said, allows the audience to understand what was going on in the artist's life when they wrote the lyrics.
"I've always said every three-minute song probably has years (and months) of stories that goes into that song," Chapman said.
In addition, The Table Tour's four acts will also join forces on some songs. "We kind of just lend our voices without intruding on each other's songs," Heath said.
As for what song the musicians will play, Chapman — who has been recording since the 1980s and has more than 20 albums— said he'll perform a mixture of songs from throughout the years. Heath said he'll draw tunes from his recently released album "No Turning Back" and the four other albums he's released in the past nine years. However, he may also play a song or two that has never been recorded.
Love & The Outcome. (Photo: Contributed)
"Its almost like a little hidden gem," he quipped about unreleased songs. "Maybe it's mean do that (because) if the audience likes it they can't buy it."
There is one song Heath will sing for sure — "I'm Not Who I Was"— which reached the No. 1 spot on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs. It's a song he doesn't get tired of playing.
Ellie Holcomb (Photo: Contributed.)
"I still love singing it," he said, "and believe it or not — I still mess up the words to it every once in a while."
Feed the Children, the tour's sponsor, will make a presentation at the show and be collecting donations.
Melanie Lawder can be reached mlawder@gannett.com or 715-845-0607. Find her on Twitter as@mel_lawder.
When: May 7 at 7 p.m.
Where: The Grand Theater, 401 Fourth St., Wausau.
Cost: $24, $34 and $40 for VIP tickets.
Performers: Steven Curtis Chapman, Brandon Heath, Ellie Holcomb and Love & The Outcome.

Daniel Kahneman — Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment
https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/sciencesalon/mss189_Daniel_Kahneman_2021_06_03.mp3
Imagine that two doctors in the same city give different diagnoses to identical patients — or that two judges in the same courthouse give markedly different sentences to people who have committed the same crime. Suppose that different interviewers at the same firm make different decisions about indistinguishable job applicants — or that when a company is handling customer complaints, the resolution depends on who happens to answer the phone. Now imagine that the same doctor, the same judge, the same interviewer, or the same customer service agent makes different decisions depending on whether it is morning or afternoon, or Monday rather than Wednesday. These are examples of noise: variability in judgments that should be identical.
In Noise, Daniel Kahneman, Olivier Sibony, and Cass Sunstein show the detrimental effects of noise in many fields, including: medicine, law, economic forecasting, forensic science, bail, child protection, strategy, performance reviews, and personnel selection. Wherever there is judgment, there is noise. Yet, most of the time, individuals and organizations alike are unaware of it. They neglect noise. With a few simple remedies, people can reduce both noise and bias, and so make far better decisions.
Daniel Kahneman is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Psychology, Princeton University, Professor of Public Affairs, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, and the winner of the 2002 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. Kahneman is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences. He is a fellow of the American Psychological Association, the American Psychological Society, the Society of Experimental Psychologists, and the Econometric Society. He has been the recipient of numerous awards, among them the Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award of the American Psychological Association, the Warren Medal of the Society of Experimental Psychologists, and Hilgard Award for Career Contributions to General Psychology, and the Award for Lifetime Contributions to Psychology from the American Psychological Association. He lives in New York City. He is the author of New York Times bestseller Thinking, Fast and Slow.
Shermer and Kahneman discuss:
the replication crisis in social science since his 2011 book Thinking, Fast and Slow,
the difference between cognitive biases and noise,
the problem of the reification of cognitive concepts like "bias" "heuristics" "noise",
noise = variability,
determining causality in social science,
How rational or irrational are humans?
bounded rationality,
default to trust or distrust?
default to belief or skepticism?
rules and standards,
scales and patterns and sources of noise,
objective ignorance,
medical noise,
hiring noise,
diagnostic DSM noise,
racism or noise or both?
false positives: stop and frisk,
debiasing programs,
Expert judgment & superforecasting. To be a superforecaster you should agree with the following statements:
"People should take into consideration evidence that goes against their beliefs."
"It is more useful to pay attention to those who disagree with you than to pay attention to those who agree."
"Nothing is inevitable."
"Even major events like World War II or 9/11 could have turned out very differently."
"Randomness is often a factor in our personal lives."
And you should disagree with these statements:
"Changing your mind is a sign of weakness."
"Intuition is the best guide in making decisions."
"It is important to persevere in your beliefs even when evidence is brought to bear against them."
"Events unfold according to God's plan."
"Everything happens for a reason."
"There are no accidents or coincidences."
To Be a Superforecaster…
Take into consideration evidence that goes against your beliefs.
Pay attention to those who disagree with you.
Remember that nothing is inevitable.
Recognize that even major events like 9/11 could have turned out differently.
Acknowledge the role of randomness in life, and that accidents and coincidences do happen.
Remind yourself that changing your mind is a strength and not a sign of weakness.
Recall that your intuitions are usually not the guide in making decisions.
When evidence is brought to bear against your beliefs, be willing to change your mind.

Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear was joined by Congressman Hal Rogers during a visit to a Mountain Parkway Expansion construction site.
SALYERSVILLE, Ky. (October 5, 2015) – Less than a year after Governor Steve Beshear unveiled the first Mountain Parkway Expansion sign to mark the beginning of road construction, more than one-third of the project is under construction or nearing shovel-ready status.
Beshear visited the first site of construction to see the progress that is transforming the parkway into a modern transportation corridor. He was joined by Congressman Hal Rogers and Jared Arnett, executive director of Shaping Our Appalachian Region (SOAR). The SOAR initiative was formed by Beshear and Rogers to overcome persistent challenges in Eastern Kentucky related to job training, health, education and economic development.
Governor Beshear, Congressman Rogers and other leaders visited at a project site just west of Salyersville, where construction workers are building a new interchange that will serve a planned industrial park. Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Secretary Mike Hancock and Mountain Parkway Expansion Project Manager Marshall Carrier led a tour of the site and provided a status report on the overall project.
By next year, about 16 miles of roadway will be under construction or shovel-ready to allow for construction and property acquisition when funding is made available. The plan includes starting work next year in the Restaurant Row section of Salyersville – the busiest and most congested portion of the parkway. Construction work on this crucial segment of the project was sped by a $24 million federal TIGER grant.
Work could begin next summer to widen and improve about 8 miles of roadway spanning Wolfe, Morgan and Magoffin counties if the legislature provides funding in the next biennial budget.
As additional funds are made available, the remaining Mountain Parkway Expansion projects are in a position to start property acquisition and construction between 2017 and 2020.

Travis Scott to perform with Maroon 5 at Super Bowl Halftime Show
The NFL also remains in talks with Cardi B and Big Boi about guest appearances

Maroon 5 reportedly had a hard time finding guests to join them for their Super Bowl Halftime performance, having reached out to everyone from André 3000 to Nicki Minaj to Bruno Mars. Some musicians, like Pink and Rihanna, passed on the opportunity in solidarity of Colin Kaepernick, the former NFL QB who was seemingly blackballed from the league for protesting police brutality.
Now, though, Maroon 5 have finally found an act willing to join them at the Big Game. According to TMZ, Travis Scott has signed on as a guest performer. Scott, who earlier this month achieved the rare feat of simultaneously having the No. 1 album (Astroworld) and No. 1 song ("Sicko Mode") in America, recently extended his supporting North American tour.
Additionally, TMZ reports that the NFL remains in negotiations with both Cardi B and Big Boi about guest appearances. A cameo from Big Boi would be especially appropriate given that the Super Bowl is taking place in the OutKast rapper's hometown of Atlanta.
Super Bowl 53 is set for February 3rd, 2019 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Q: Override AppendText I made my own custom TextBox control, but now I need to add the AppendText property, does anyone have any idea how to do this? I can't seem to find any information about this on Google, I can only find how you use it, not how you implant it in a custom control.
Here is the code of the TextBox if anyone is interested http://pastebin.com/iW4xQCai.

A: In general, you would be much better off inheriting directly from TextBox instead of creating a composite control.
Either way, there should be no problem implementing the AppendText method (there is a difference between a method and a property).
If you are not overriding TextBox, simply add a new method to your class which passes the call to your textbox.
public void AppendText(string txt)
{
    textBox.AppendText(txt);
}

If you are overriding TextBox, this would require absolutely no code as the method would already be inherited.

Side effect of snake bite on horse almost a year later.
Last year on June 16 we were dealing with our first snake bit horse. You may remember the blog, complete with photos, documenting the whole process. As Hope, the horse that was bitten, was hanging her head out of the stall yesterday I snapped this photo and decided to do a follow up. I laugh when I see her because she has an innocent look…and a slightly crooked nose!
The only two signs she still has are 1) an altered growth ring on her hoof 2) a crooked nose.
The ring will be grown out soon but the nose…I'm not sure if it will ever be straight. Either way she is still cute!
← Do horses get dizzy when they are learning to spin?
Here is a link to the VIPER Institute located in Tucson, Arizona. It is very time consuming and expensive to make antivenom. http://viper.arizona.edu/video-archive. Click the "How Horses Help Make Antivenom in Mexico" video.
So glad she's ok! I'm wondering what vets in California would do. I haven't had any snake bites with horses yet, but they do have to treat dogs very aggressively here. ..
One would think Texas would have much more poisonous snakes than here.
She sure looks cute though!
What is Hopes registered name ??
I believe that this could be successfully treated. There will be several reasons why this is happening. For sure, there will be fascia caught up in the poll with residual toxins as it is very common to see uneven nostrils when there is a tight poll, when the nerve endings are released, the face can then relax. A world wide respected Australian technique called Bowen is incredibly successful in releasing this sort of problem. Touch her poll, I bet it's like a rock.
Poor little girl i remember the blog well Stacy, it is great that you do a follow up, because you read a story and months later you are reading another story and you suddenly wonder how that horse is. Thank you for updating us on her story. She looks beautiful non the less.
I'm curious as to what the Veterinarian says as to why the difference in her nose. Is that where she was bit? And is it a type of scar tissue?

Does Online Business CPA Network Must Have Skill?
online business CPA Network must have skills? Is yes! People must be able to add skills if they feel they lack knowledge and skills.
CPA network is part of affiliate marketing. To support success in the CPA network, some skills in affiliate marketing must be mastered. You must have the spirit to always add knowledge and skills to keep up with business development. Marketing methods in online business are always evolving in line with the trend of society. Therefore if you want to run this business then you must have a strong spirit to keep abreast of the development of online marketing science.
You must emphasize the importance of the work ethic in this online business. First, any field of work will require a work ethic in order to achieve success. You must have a high work spirit, persistence, and loyalty in pursuing this field. Second, often you are not bound by space and time in this work. If your market share is outside your local working hours, then you must be able to encourage your enthusiasm to overcome this. You must be able to manage your time well if you have marketing targets in the hemisphere at different times. Third, this field of work often compares with numerical calculations, market penetration that the character does not know yet, and the development of different methods.
In CPA networking you are the marketer of a product or service belonging to another party. Therefore you should learn the basics of marketing related to online business. Some of them are possessing communication skills, writing skills, analytical skills, high creativity, negotiation skills, mastering technology, and stress management.
In doing CPA marketing work, a person can suffer stress. This is because you often face different sleep times, analyze ad data, compare ads and market power, make banner designs, calculate ad comparison and others. If you make a mistake that creates a chain effect, you will face a marketing project failure.
Does Online Business CPA Network Must Have Skill? What are those skills?
CPA Network must have skills in creativity. CPA marketing requires creativity that is higher than working in other sectors. This is because you have to promote the offer from the CPA network. You will achieve success faster if you have high creativity.
CPA marketing will have many relationships with various types of advertisements. You must advertise to promote the offer you have chosen. You must create attractive and efficient advertisements to guarantee your marketing success. Creativity in this ads includes banner design, landing page, and writing or communication.
Choosing paths and advertising media also requires analysis and creativity. For example in a social media channel, you need attractive images to attract young age interests. Or you use a mix of short and dense words that give rise to curiosity in your targets. You have to creatively create ads that are in accordance with the target consumers. Consumers have different interests, for example, according to age, education level, gender, zone, etc.
This communication and writing capability includes copywriting skills. So you need good copywriting skills to be successful in this business. Copywriting can include video, audio or writing. Copywriting is our ways of channeling ideas in writing / non-writing so that other people want to act as we expect.
In CPA marketing, you have the duty to convince other people or prospective buyers to take action in the CPA. This copywriting result will bring these people to the webpage as a landing page, for example. Actually, this copywriting ability is very important for everyone who runs online marketing. Not only in CPA.
You need to understand a little about web and graphic design. These two skills actually only require standard abilities. You don't need to be an expert. The ability of this skill to support your success on the landing page side. This landing page also requires creativity to make a banner design.
A good landing page design will certainly be more convincing for prospective customers who have been led by copywriting. You can create your own banner and landing page or ask for professional consultants. If you want to create your own, you can use computer applications that are widely available.
Marketing must have the ability to analyze data. This is because one of the important activities is to advertise. You must be able to assess the effectiveness of these advertisements. You can place advertisements on paid and free media. In paid advertisements, you will get data on the results of adverts such as data on the number of impressions, number of clicks, CTR (click-through rate), conversion rate, etc. You can also install ad tracking software on your web ad.
The analysis results will help you assess the effectiveness of your ad. You can see potential customers who interact with your ad, the level of depth of advertising penetration, and the accuracy of your business goals. Thus you can optimize your business campaign. And you can efficiently calculate the advertising budget in the future.

Updated: Bay Area Freshmen 10 Showcase to Be Rescheduled Following OPD Concerns
No more Tia Nomore concert tonight.
by Sam Lefebvre
Bert Johnson
Update: The Bay Area Freshmen 10 concert has been rescheduled to take place at the Red House in Walnut Creek on Friday, January 30th. The show is now all-ages. Tickets are available here.
The Bay Area Freshmen 10 showcase – an annual service of hip-hop blog Thizzler.com that features emerging local artists nominated by fans – was scheduled to occur this evening at the New Parish in Oakland. Artists slated to perform included Ezale, Caleborate, and Tia Nomore, who Express writer Sarah Burke profiled in yesterday's issue. Following concerns from Oakland Police Department and tardy permit applications, promoters said, the original concert was cancelled. Matt Werner, proprietor of Thizzler.com, said that he'll announce the rescheduled concert soon.
The Bay Area Freshmen 10 line-up was announced in full on December 21, Werner said.
According to Jason Perkins, co-owner of the Parish Entertainment Group, whose other venues include Brick & Mortar and Club Leo's, "[The Oakland Police Department] had a couple of concerns about artists who were playing – who I didn't know were playing."
However, Werner, who booked the show at the New Parish through promoter Jackson Ellis, claims that line-up was known in full. Regardless, he said, Werner was willing to remove the artists that OPD considered a safety risk in order to proceed with the show, by which point the New Parish had already declined to host Werner's event.
"I backed out of the show because every time I asked a question I got a different answer," Perkins said.
Werner and Perkins declined to specify the concern-worthy artists.
Though their accounts differ slightly, both parties agreed that there were communication issues. A representative from OPD's Special Events office offered an even more banal explanation: permits weren't filed in time. Werner confirmed that at the time he announced the cancellation via Twitter on Tuesday, he hadn't completed the necessary paperwork.
Last year's Bay Area Freshmen 10 showcase, originally scheduled at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco, was also abruptly cancelled less than week ahead of time.
We'll update when details of the rescheduled concert emerge.
Meanwhile, here's the video to Tia Nomore's "Suck it Easy."

County Commissioner Riley's longstanding state tax lien raises more salary conundrums (A Look At Salaries, Part 2)
By admin on September 17, 2017 No Comment

Coldsprings and Magnolia, September 17 – Precinct 2 Montgomery County Commissioner Charlie Riley's longstanding Texas State Tax Lien, in place and unpaid since February 21, 2002, raises more salary conundrums for Riley and the citizens of Montgomery County. The tax lien, in the principal amount of $830.79, displays Riley's anti-public outlook and the financial irresponsibility which he also displays in his failure to manage the multi-million budget and road bond projects of Commissioner's Precinct 2.
Riley and his wife Deanne filed Chapter 7 Bankruptcy on February 2, 2002, to avoid paying all of their debt obligations. On June 27, 2002, United States Bankruptcy Judge Karen Brown of Houston granted the Rileys a discharge under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Discharges under the Bankruptcy Code do not discharge the obligation to pay taxes, pursuant to Section 523 of Title 11 of the United States Code. Therefore, Riley and his wife Deanne remain liable for payment of the Texas State Tax Lien which the Comptroller of Public Accounts filed in the Public Records of San Jacinto County, where the Rileys had conducted a failed business operation at the time.
The Texas Comptroller assessed the State Tax Lien against Riley personally for $772.94 for his failure to pay State Taxes, most likely sales taxes he had failed to remit from his failed business, even though he had collected those taxes from customers. Additionally, the Comptroller liened Riley for his failure to pay $57.85 in city, transit, and county taxes.
Riley and his wife Deanne Riley receive approximately $317,000 per year in salaries and benefits from Montgomery County taxpayers. Riley is the Precinct 2 County Commissioner while Deanne Riley works in the County job Riley created for her after incoming Sheriff Rand Henderson did not keep her on as a Sheriff's Office employee in his new administration. The previous sheriff was Tommy Gage, Charlie Riley's best friend, who hired Deanne Riley as his secretary at a salary of $68,000 per year plus lucrative County benefits.
Therefore, the Rileys' failure to pay off the State Tax Lien obligation was volitional. Riley has displayed terrible antagonism towards citizens during Commissioners Court meetings. He has uttered profanities and used the Lord's name in vain as though it were a profanity when citizens question official actions of the Commissioners Court. His failure to meet a tax obligation out of his massive annual salary further reveals his anti-public attitude.

A brief set of comparisons
One question that citizens must face is whether high elected official salaries attract higher quality individuals to the office. That's a question the citizens should explore in depth. At this point, it's appropriate to look at two comparisons.
The Second Continental Congress of the American colonies met at Philadelphia from 1775 to 1781. There were some pretty good people who served long hours and worked very hard at the business of the Congress. They lived temporarily far from their main homes and away from communication with their families and friends for long periods of time.
The Second Continental Congress included Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Peyton Randolph, Richard Henry Lee, John Hancock, Samuel Adams, George Clinton (not of P-Funk fame), Samuel Chase, Patrick Henry, John Jay, Benjamin Rush, John Witherspoon, and Roger Sherman, among others.
Even without salaries or formal compensation, the Delegates to the Second Continental Congress were able to get the job done.
Even without payment of salaries, overtime, comp time, out-of-pocket expenses, or even benefit plans, the thousands of Montgomery County citizens who helped others after the Tropical Storm Harvey disaster were also able to get the job done.
Neither the Delegates to the Second Continental Congress nor the Harvey volunteers had to:
Give their spouses or immediate family members lucrative jobs;
Award giant contracts to political contributors;
Take political contributions at all;
Accept lavish fishing trips and other paid vacations from vendors to the Continental Congress or volunteer organizations.
Is it a miracle that those people could get the job done and do it so well?!

Elizabeth Mccracken
McCracken, Elizabeth
LITERARY CRITICISM / American / General
Short stories, American
From the author of the beloved novel The Giant's House'finalist for the National Book Award'comes a beautiful new story collection, her first in twenty years. Laced through with the humor, the empathy, and the rare and magical descriptive powers that have led Elizabeth McCracken's fiction to be hailed as "exquisite" (The New York Times Book Review), "funny and heartbreaking" (The Boston Globe), and "a true marvel" (San Francisco Chronicle), these nine vibrant stories navigate the fragile space between love and loneliness. In "Property," selected by Geraldine Brooks for The Best American Short Stories, a young scholar, grieving the sudden death of his wife, decides to refurbish the Maine rental house they were to share together by removing his landlord's possessions. In "Peter Elroy: A Documentary by Ian Casey," the household of a successful filmmaker is visited years later by his famous first subject, whose trust he betrayed. In "The Lost & Found Department of Greater Boston," the manager of a grocery store becomes fixated on the famous case of a missing local woman, and on the fate of the teenage son she left behind. And in the unforgettable title story, a family makes a quixotic decision to flee to Paris for a summer, only to find their lives altered in an unimaginable way by their teenage daughter's risky behavior. In Elizabeth McCracken's universe, heartache is always interwoven with strange, charmed moments of joy'an unexpected conversation with small children, the gift of a parrot with a bad French accent'that remind us of the wonder and mystery of being alive. Thunderstruck & Other Stories shows this inimitable writer working at the full height of her powers. Advance praise for Thunderstruck & Other Stories "[Elizabeth] McCracken's short stories are like no others. Her distinctive voice, her slightly askew manner of looking at the world, her mix of mordant humor and tenderness, her sense of life's ironies, and the jolt of electricity at the end of each tale make her work arresting and memorable. . . . Readers will enjoy reading them twice'the first time quickly, because the plots are mesmerizing and strange, and the second to relish the dozens of images, apercus, and descriptions. . . . McCracken transforms life's dead ends into transformational visions."'Publishers Weekly (starred review) Praise for The Giant's House National Book Award finalist "This book is so lovely that, when you're reading, you'll want to sleep with it under your pillow."'Salon "Such is the incantatory power of McCracken's eccentric tale that by its close we are completely in the grip of its strangely conceived ardor. . . . I was reminded at various points of Harper Lee, Marjorie Kellogg, Carson McCullers, and Walker Percy."'The New Yorker Praise for Here's Your Hat What's Your Hurry "Funny and heartbreaking . . . a terrific book . . . You could gulp [these stories] like heart-candy."'The Boston Sunday Globe "There's . . . a real grace of language here'a knack for quirky, precise description. . . . McCracken [has an] engaging voice, [a] sharp eye for those moments when the grotesque hides behind the unexceptional'and [an] ability to persuade us that what appears most unlikely is often most illuminating, and frequently most true."'Francine Prose, Los Angeles Times

O Stamp Act Congress (7 a 25 de outubro de 1765), também conhecido como Congresso Continental de 1765, foi uma reunião realizada em Nova York, Nova York, composta por representantes de algumas das colônias britânicas na América do Norte.

História
Foi a primeira reunião de representantes eleitos de várias das colônias americanas para planejar um protesto unificado contra a nova tributação britânica. O Parlamento britânico aprovou a Lei do Selo, que exigia o uso de papel carimbado especial para documentos jurídicos, cartas de jogar, calendários, jornais e dados para praticamente todos os negócios nas colônias a partir de 1º de novembro de 1765.

O Congresso consistia em delegados de nove das dezoito colônias britânicas na América do Norte continental. Todas as delegações presentes eram das Treze Colônias que eventualmente formaram os Estados Unidos. Embora o sentimento fosse forte em algumas das outras colônias para participar do Congresso, vários governadores reais tomaram medidas para impedir que as legislaturas coloniais se reunissem para selecionar delegados.

O Congresso se reuniu no prédio hoje conhecido como Federal Hall e foi realizado em um momento de protestos generalizados nas colônias, alguns violentos, contra a implementação da Lei do Selo. Os delegados discutiram e se uniram contra o ato, emitindo uma Declaração de Direitos e Queixas na qual alegavam que o Parlamento não tinha o direito de cobrar o imposto porque não incluía qualquer representação das colônias. Membros de seis das nove delegações assinaram petições dirigidas ao Parlamento e ao Rei George III objetando às disposições da lei.

A natureza extralegal do Congresso causou alarme na Grã-Bretanha, mas qualquer discussão sobre a propriedade do congresso foi superada por protestos econômicos de mercadores britânicos, cujos negócios com as colônias sofreram como conseqüência dos protestos e sua associada não importação de produtos britânicos. As questões econômicas levaram o Parlamento britânico a revogar a Lei do Selo, mas aprovou a Lei Declaratória no mesmo dia, para expressar sua opinião sobre as questões constitucionais básicas levantadas pelos colonos; afirmou que o Parlamento poderia fazer leis vinculando as colônias americanas "em todos os casos".

Reação
Cópias das petições saíram de Nova York em dois navios, incluindo um que havia chegado durante o Congresso, carregando papel carimbado. William Legge, 2º conde de Dartmouth, o secretário colonial, rejeitou a petição aos Lordes, dizendo que era um documento impróprio. O fraco Ministério Rockingham, trabalhando por apoio contra oponentes políticos, reuniu interesses mercantis em oposição à Lei do Selo, e foi revogada principalmente com base nos argumentos econômicos apresentados por esses interesses em 18 de março de 1766. Para abordar as questões constitucionais levantadas pelo Protestos norte-americanos, o Parlamento também aprovou o Ato Declaratório, reivindicando autoridade para legislar para as colônias "em todos os casos".

Legado
Este Congresso é geralmente visto como uma das primeiras ações políticas organizadas e coordenadas da Revolução Americana, embora seus participantes não estivessem de forma alguma interessados na independência da Grã-Bretanha. Apesar das diferenças políticas significativas e desacordos entre as Treze Colônias, as tensões ocasionadas pela dura resposta parlamentar ao Boston Tea Party de 1773 levaram à convocação do Primeiro Congresso Continental, que produziu uma resposta unida aos Atos Intoleráveis de 1774. Colônias como já que Quebec e Nova Escócia, que tinham apenas oposição moderada à Lei do Selo, continuaram a agir moderadamente durante os protestos crescentes e permaneceram Leal durante a Guerra Revolucionária Americana.

A maioria dos documentos oficiais do Congresso não sobreviveu. Uma cópia de seu diário, dos papéis de Caesar Rodney, sobreviveu na biblioteca da Rowan University em Glassboro, Nova Jersey, e uma segunda existe nos arquivos do estado de Connecticut. A cópia do jornal de Maryland, embora o original esteja perdido, foi transcrita nos registros de sua assembléia e impressa em 1766. Inconsistências dentro e entre os documentos tornam incerto se alguma é uma representação precisa do jornal oficial ( que provavelmente foi levado para Massachusetts e não foi localizado por Weslager em sua pesquisa).

Anything You Can Do We Can Do Better!
Ever since my blog redesign I have had tons of questions as to whether I was still on Blogger or if I changed over to something else so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to write why I am still Blogger and why I love it.
Lets just start this off by saying, started from the bottom now I'm here. I started out with the simple basic blogger template, basic settings and nothing super fancy and look where I have come. Not only does design tremendously help your blog but I have found it's gotten me motivated to improve my writing and photography to go along with my beautiful design. Myself and many other bloggers are firm believers in the fact that if you are starting a blog why would you not consider Blogger? Is it because Wordpress or other platforms are more popular? Do you think other platforms have more to offer? In my opinion I could not be more pleased with not only Blogger overall, all of the Google tools to help you manage your blog, and the amazing customization factor. I have now been blogging on Blogger for over two years and have never once had a single issue with ANYTHING! I also got some of my Blogger bloggy friends to comment on why they love Blogger and just some overall thoughts they have so here they are!
These are just a few comments I have received from friends who use Blogger. Not only have I met an amazing community of bloggers on Blogger I have never once faced an issue, I have managed to start off my blog very simple and work hard to get it to where it is today and I could not be happier! If you ever consider starting a blog I would put Blogger on your list of platforms to check out for sure, I am also more then happy to help any friends who are just starting out and need help! And one more thing, PEACE LOVE BLOGGER!
PS I have a very exciting Twitter chat and matching blog post happening both on Tuesday, so be sure to be following me on Twitter and check back here on Tuesday for my blog post! See you then beauties!

"We waged a war on poverty and poverty won."
President Ronald Reagan, 1988 State of the Union Address
The dust has settled and the evidence is in: The 1960s Great Society and War on Poverty programs of President Lyndon Baines Johnson (LBJ) have been a colossal and giant failure. One might make the argument that social welfare programs are the moral path for a modern government. They cannot, however, make the argument that these are in any way effective at alleviating poverty.
In fact, there is evidence that such aggressive programs might make generational poverty worse. While the notion of a "culture of dependence" is a bit of a cliché in conservative circles, there is evidence that this is indeed the case – that, consciously or not, the welfare state creates a culture where people receive benefits rather than seeking gainful employment or business ownership.
This is not a moral or even a value judgment against the people engaged in such a culture. Again, the claim is not that people "choose to be on welfare," but simply that social welfare programs incentivize poverty, which has an impact on communities that has nothing to do with individual intent.
We are now over 50 years into the development of the Great Society and the War on Poverty. It is time to take stock in these programs from an objective and evidence-based perspective. When one does that, it is not only clear that the programs have been a failure, but also that they have disproportionately impacted the black community in the United States. The current state of dysfunction in the black community (astronomically high crime rates, very low rates of home ownership and single motherhood as the norm) are not the natural state of the black community in the United States, but closely tied to the role that social welfare programs play. Or as Dr. Thomas Sowell stated:
"If we wanted to be serious about evidence, we might compare where blacks stood a hundred years after the end of slavery with where they stood after 30 years of the liberal welfare state. In other words, we could compare hard evidence on "the legacy of slavery" with hard evidence on the legacy of liberals."
Here's a peek into how black America has been a victim of LBJ's Great Society and War on Poverty.

If you're a Toronto Blue Jays fan, odds are you've probably taken in a game at the Rogers Centre at some point in your life. But have you ever taken in a Blue Jays game 1,465 feet in the air?
The CN Tower EdgeWalk allows people to take in a bird's-eye view of a game below, but the video below actually does one better. Troy Martins on Vimeo shows us what Blue Jays game would look like nearly half a kilometre above the ground via a drone camera.
According to the description, the video was filmed in late September. At the very least, the drone reaches the top deck of the CN Tower, which is 1,465 feet high (or 445.5 meters).
Not only does the drone fly over the Rogers Centre and nearly to the very top of the CN Tower, but it also tours around the Steam Whistle Roundhouse. Not a bad way to take in the downtown Toronto scenery!
Will the Blue Jays Miss Melky Cabrera?
Was looking at the wrong column, fixed now. Thanks!

Brand Snapshot | Fitzdares opens luxurious sports club for the Cheltenham Festival
Fitzdares, the world's finest bookmaker, will open a luxurious sports club for the week of the Cheltenham Festival, at Mark's Club in the heart of Mayfair. With access to one of the most exquisite cellars in London and food from the world-famous private members' club, the club will
have brokers on hand to help novices and experts alike as they watch the drama unfold on giant, state-of-the-art screens.
With 5,000 bookmakers closing their doors this year, Fitzdares are bucking the trend by creating a luxurious environment in Mayfair for their members to enjoy the beauty of the Cheltenham Festival.
The sports club will be hosted in private rooms within the club, showing all the live racing at Cheltenham, plus other sporting events that week, including Liverpool in the Champions League. Guests can book a table for lunch, simply turn up and order lobster sandwiches from the bar menu, or just sit back and place their bets in the comfort of the club's beautiful armchairs and sofas, while the sport unfolds before their eyes.
William Woodhams, CEO of Fitzdares, said: "This will be a truly amazing week for sports fans with the introduction of one of the most luxurious sports clubs in the country. If you cannot get to Cheltenham or fancy watching one of the other big sporting events that week, then this is the place to be."
"While most bookies are closing their doors or just going online, we believe that the future of bookmaking is not algorithms or bombarding customers with mass advertising, it's the connection between the bookmaker and the sports fan that really counts."
"There are no cashiers, fixed-odds betting terminals, one-arm bandits or frosted windows – just a wonderful and comfortable environment in which to enjoy sport, whether you are an expert or a total novice. Our plan is to roll out the idea internationally this year."
Fitzdares has designed the Denman Dining room with a Club Table for members to enjoy lunch and tea during the races. The Birley chefs have curated a seasonal menu that will keep both British and Irish racing fans happy. From Irish smoked salmon to free-range chicken pie, their exceptional food compliments one the finest wine cellars in London.
In the Kauto Star Bar, a selection of cocktails will be served with a smart twist on bar snacks. Warm beer and peanuts make way for Claret, Guinness in pewter tankards, and lobster sandwiches to keep members sated during all the action. Members can also enjoy a stunning lunch at the communal club table as well as afternoon tea and wine for £150 and includes a £50 wager.
The Club will open on Monday 11th March for a preview of the Festival's racing and then 12pm-6pm for the Cheltenham races (from Tuesday 12th to Friday 15th March).
To gain membership to The Fitzdares Club, please email membership@fitzdares.com.

WASHINGTON D.C. — Yesterday, the FCC announced that it would move forward with a plan to remove barriers to deployment of the new infrastructure needed to provide 5G wireless service, which requires more, smaller antennae than the large towers used to provide 4G and traditional mobile services. The FCC's agreement with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACPH) and National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers (NCSHPO) will eliminate the costly and time-consuming historic preservation review process for small cells, distributed antennae systems (DAS), and other small networking equipment that pose no adverse impact to historic sites and locations.
Struble points to Positive Train Control (PTC) as an example. PTC overrides the controls of trains to stop a train if necessary to prevent an accident. This technology relies on small cells laid along train tracks having constant communication with the trains. Because each small cell was being installed along train tracks that have already been laid and in use for decades, they pose little if any impact to historic sites. However, each siting had to be separately analyzed and approved under the historic preservation review process. This led to massive multi-year delays in rollout and a preventable accident in the Northeast corridor.
