Le terme de Tchetniks ou Chetniks (serbe : Četnik, pluriel Četnici, cyrillique : четник), (du serbe četa, « compagnie », désignant une unité militaire ou paramilitaire) signifie « membre d'une unité » et désigne plusieurs groupes armés, ayant existé à diverses périodes de l'histoire des Balkans.

Selon la période, il peut s'agir :
 de rebelles orthodoxes s'opposant par la guérilla à la domination ottomane aux  ;
 de résistants (en majorité serbes) de l'Armée yougoslave de la patrie (résistance non communiste, fidèle au gouvernement yougoslave réfugié à Londres et dirigée par Draža Mihajlović), qui ont combattu contre l'occupant nazi pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale avant d'être à leur tour combattus par les partisans communistes de Tito. Cette organisation, du fait de l'importance et du caractère plus récent de la période historique, tend à être le plus fréquemment associée à la dénomination Tchetniks ;
 d'unités paramilitaires nationalistes serbes pendant les guerres de dislocation de la Yougoslavie.

Depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le terme Tchetniks est principalement employé, en dehors des pays de l'ex-Yougoslavie, pour désigner les unités regroupées au sein de l'Armée yougoslave de la patrie.

Origines
Les premiers groupes à utiliser le nom de tchetniks furent des unités d'insurgés en lutte contre l'Empire ottoman apparues en Serbie au début du ème siècle, puis, à fréquence moindre, au nord de l'Albanie, les « tchétas ». Le mot « tchéta » (чета ou četa en serbe, çeta en albanais) provient lui-même du turc çete, signifiant « gang » ou « bande », vraisemblablement du fait de la récupération par les tchetniks eux-mêmes de la désignation que leur donnaient les soldats turcs.

Bien que les tchétas aient existé à la fois chez les Serbes et les Albanais, le terme « tchetnik » fut utilisé uniquement par les Slaves (le suffixe nominal -nik étant usuel en serbe, le mot se constitua naturellement). Par ailleurs, d'autres groupes d'insurgés chez les autres peuples des Balkans sous domination ottomane existaient à la même époque, en particulier les comitadjis bulgares. Ces différentes unités du début du  sont à rapprocher des Robin des Bois balkaniques des siècles précédents, les haïdouks et les klephte

Les guerres balkaniques

Avant la Première Guerre balkanique, en 1912, il y avait 110 détachements de l'Organisation révolutionnaire macédonienne intérieure, 108 détachements grecs, trente détachements serbes, et cinq détachements valaques qui combattaient les troupes ottomanes. Lors des guerres balkaniques, ils furent intégrés dans les armées en campagne (les Macédoniens du côté bulgare ou serbe, les Grecs et les Valaques du côté grec). Après les guerres balkaniques, les Tchetniks disparurent, l'objet de leur lutte (la domination ottomane dans les Balkans) ayant disparu. Seules quelques unités de Komitadjis bulgares se maintinrent en Macédoine, en Thrace grecque et en Dobroudja du sud, territoires que la Bulgarie revendiquait à ses voisins.

Seconde Guerre mondiale

Dans le contexte du théâtre d'opérations yougoslave de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le terme Tchetniks désigne l'Armée yougoslave de la patrie (lire Serbe et non yougoslave), un ensemble d'unités de résistance armée Serbe contre les partisans. Le mouvement fut rapidement débordé par les Partisans communistes de Tito, mieux structurés, et, face à la puissance de ces derniers, les Britanniques décidèrent le roi Pierre II d'appeler l'Armée tchetnik de la patrie à se rallier aux partisans de Tito : devant pareil dilemme, certaines unités passèrent sous les ordres de Tito, tandis que la grande majorite des tchetniks resta fidèle a l'occupant.

Les Tchetniks dans les guerres de dislocation de la Yougoslavie

Les groupes paramilitaires serbes que l'on a appelés « Tchetniks » en 1991-1996, notamment en Bosnie-Herzégovine, ont deux origines, mais le même objectif. Certains sont des militaires serbes de l'Armée populaire de Yougoslavie, originaires de Croatie ou de Bosnie-Herzégovine et de Serbie, et donc devenus citoyens de ces pays lors de leur indépendance, mais qui, plutôt que d'intégrer leurs forces armées, préfèrent changer d'écusson au profit d'unités spécifiquement serbes, régulières (armée de la Republika Srpska de Bosnie-Herzégovine) ou non (« Tchetniks »). D'autres sont des civils d'origine serbe, qui s'engagent volontairement dans les unités « Tchetniks ».

Pour la grande Serbie:

Dans les deux cas, leur objectif est le maintien au sein de la Fédération yougoslave, des territoires où ils sont majoritaires, alors que la majorité des populations croates ou musulmanes souhaitait s'en détacher. L'Armée populaire de Yougoslavie (appelée désormais Armée fédérale yougoslave et ayant remplacé le communisme par le nationalisme serbe) soutient et finance l'armée de la Republika Srpska de Bosnie-Herzégovine et les nouveaux « Tchetniks ». Si la première a un rôle surtout stratégique (empêcher les États nouvellement indépendants d'asseoir leur autorité sur les territoires où les Serbes sont majoritaires), les nouveaux « Tchetniks », eux, ont un rôle surtout tactique : il s'agit de procéder aux expulsions des territoires serbes (Serbie, Monténégro, Bosnie - Herzgovine et bien entendu le Kosovo - Métochie) des opposants hostiles à la cause yougoslave et serbe par la guérilla. Cette stratégie et cette tactique sont exactement les mêmes que celles utilisées dans l'ex-URSS, pendant sa dislocation, par les unités paramilitaires russes ou pro-russes, en Tchétchénie, en Ossétie du Sud, en Abkhazie, en Crimée ou en Transnistrie, pour empêcher les États nouvellement indépendants d'asseoir leur autorité sur ces territoires.

Les Tchetniks et l'image de la Serbie en Occident
Si jusqu'en 1945 l'image de la Serbie et des Tchetniks en occident était plutôt positive (cause révolutionnaire contre l'absolutisme ottoman, puis forces alliées de la France et des Anglo-Saxons), après 1945 la propagande du régime Tito prend le relais et ternit durablement leur image dans l'historiographie et les médias occidentaux. La constitution, sous ce nom, de forces irrégulières au service du régime Milosevic, affichant une idéologie ultra-nationaliste et monarchiste, combattues par les Casques bleus, a aggravé encore davantage la mauvaise image internationale des Tchetniks et du peuple serbe, désignés comme « agresseurs » dans les guerres de dislocation de la Yougoslavie.

Will Sewer Be Good for the White Oak?
11/24/2014 by Brad Rich
CEDAR POINT — Would a central sewer system in this small town in western Carteret County improve the health of the White Oak River, as proponents say? Or could the denser development made likely by abandoning septic tanks only increase the bacterial pollution in a picturesque waterway that's already classified as "impaired" by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency?
Those questions are central to the discussions that started several weeks ago between the Cedar Point town board and officials with the Onslow Water and Sewer Authority, or ONWASA, about extending a sewer line across the river and treating the waste at the utility's plant in Swansboro.
Billy Joe Farmer, ONWASA's executive director, and Jim Allen, an ONWASA board member and a Swansboro town commissioner, met with town board last month. Allen said he supported the proposal because Swansboro's plant, which was enlarged several years ago to treat 600,000 gallons of sewage a day, is operating at about half its design capacity.
"I think it would be good for us (ONWASA) and good for them (the town)," Allen said. "It would be good for the environment – there are a lot of septic tanks and (private package) treatment plants in Cedar Point – and good for the White Oak River."
Like others, Chris Seaberg, Cedar Point's administrator, said he thought a sewer system for all or part of the town would benefit the environment, because septic tanks and package treatment plants fail and, even when working properly, can pollute, to some degree.
Others, however, say, that's not at all clear, and point to numerous instances in which sewage treatment systems allowed much greater development density – more parking lots and buildings – which generate more stormwater runoff and more pollution.
Septic Tanks Not Failing
Billy Joe Farmer
An EPA-funded study almost a decade ago that Cedar Point participated in determined that stormwater runoff, and not failing septic tanks, was the main source of bacteria that has closed shellfish beds in the lower White Oak.
Patti Fowler heads of the state's Shellfish Sanitation and Recreational Water Quality Section in Morehead City. Repeated studies and surveys have clearly shown that runoff, not septic tanks and package treatment plants, are responsible for the far larger share of the pollution in the state's coastal rivers, streams and sounds, she said.
Fowler said her office has detected few if any obvious problems with septic tanks or package treatment plants in or around Cedar Point. Water quality is about the same as it's been for years, with some permanent shellfish harvest closures and other waters open most of the time but closed by runoff after heavy rains.
Troy Dees, head of the Environmental Health Division for Carteret County, concurred. "We really don't see any major problems there," he said. "There are no major failures, and I would say that we don't see a 'need' for a sewer system there. But we don't play a role in that; it's not our jurisdiction. It's up to the municipality to decide if it wants sewer."
Jim Gregson, a supervisor of the Water Quality Program for the state Division of Water Resources in Wilmington, noted, like Fowler, that stormwater runoff is the bigger problem for coastal waters than failing septic tanks. But like Dees, he said the state doesn't base its permit decisions on "need." Instead, he said, his program looks almost exclusively at the capacity of the proposed sewer system to handle the flow.
In the Cedar Point-ONWASA scenario, he said, ONWASA would apply for the permit, and if its existing system could handle Cedar Point's flow, it most likely would be permitted. Such permits, Gregson added, usually are approved 30 to 90 days after an application is submitted.
In fact, Gregson said, the Division of Water Quality generally looks at central sewer as "preferable" to septic tanks and package plants. He conceded that the increased development made possible by central sewer systems can be a problem. Local governments, he noted, can control the level of development with ordinances and zoning.
Stormwater experts, however, noted that Gregson's use of the word "can" is crucial.
"Central sewer is a great thing … as long as the local government has strong land-use planning and enforces the plan," said Joe Ramus, a longtime water-quality researcher who is now a professor emeritus at the Duke University Marine Laboratory in Beaufort and a member of the board of directors of the N.C. Coastal Federation. "Is it (increased development and more polluted runoff) automatic with a sewer system? It is if there is not a good plan or if it's not enforced. If we increase impervious surface, we increase runoff and we degrade water quality.
"It might not happen right now, or it might happen very slowly, because we have a slow economy," Ramus continued, "but eventually it would happen."
Seaberg said water quality in the White Oak are very important to Cedar Point commissioners and residents. The town has been working with the federation for years to try to clean up the impaired White Oak River, and recently learned that federation and East Carolina University got a $140,000 EPA grant to continue that work, addressing problems on a "lot-by-lot" basis. Since 2006, the agency has spent almost $500,000 determining the runoff sources around Cedar Point and installing possible remedies.
The town, Seaberg said, already has good "controls" in place to limit growth. The minimum residential lot size in town is 10,000 square feet – although there are some smaller ones that are non-conforming – and the town years ago adopted fairly good restriction on commercial building size in most areas.
For example, he said, the most prevalent business district, B-1, which generally encompasses most of the land along N.C. 24, has a 25,000-square-foot building limit. The B-2 zone, which is intended for marine facilities, such as marinas, allows buildings up to 50,000 square feet, but there is very little property zoned in that classification. Similarly, while the B-3 district allows buildings up to 50,000 square feet, there is not much of that property in town.
"We think our zoning would control growth pretty well," Seaberg said in summary.
The town also encourages low-impact development, or LID, a concept that uses best-management practices, such as rain gardens and other natural areas and porous pavement, to try to limit stormwater runoff.
LID methods are voluntary, and Seaberg conceded that not many new projects have used them. If the town did choose to move toward a sewer system, he said, it most likely would need to find some way to "incentivize" use of LID concepts and practices.
New Hanover: A Case Study
Joe Ramus
Mike Mallin
New Hanover County shows what can happen when sewer lines proceed without strong measures to control the resulting runoff. County commissioners there convinced themselves and voters to support a $46 million bond referendum in 1984 to build the first "countywide" sewer system on the coast. The campaign for the bond was based on the contention that the sewer was needed to clean up polluted shellfish beds, and a system was built.
William B. Farris, a former Wilmington city manager and then a planning consultant, studied the effects of the sewer system on water quality in the county. His 1997 analysis focused on Howe Creek. At the time the sewer was built, about 34 percent of its watershed was freshwater wetlands, Farris noted. The state classified the creek as Outstanding Resource Waters in 1989 because of exceptional water quality.
Ten years later, Farris found, sewer lines extended though much of the watershed. Only 16 percent was still undeveloped. The dense development triggered increased stormwater runoff, and the creek became too polluted for shellfishing.
Mike Mallin, a researcher at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, took a look at Howe Creek in 2011. More than 6,500 people then lived in the watershed. He concluded that the creek was plagued by bacteria, occasional algal blooms and low levels of dissolved oxygen.
EPA had weighed in on coastal sewer systems in the early 1980s when the agency evaluated options for providing sewage treatment on North Carolina's barrier islands. The study's main conclusion was that the density of development on land that is marginally suitable for development increases dramatically when centralized sewer systems are built. Land that was unsuitable for septic tanks can be developed once the sewer is available. This increases polluted stormwater runoff, contaminating coastal waterways. Dirty runoff from roads, driveways, yards and roofs overshadowed the water-quality benefits from the new sewage-treatment plants. Because of the EPA study, federal grants to help barrier islands build big new central sewage-treatment systems stopped.
But Mallin said last week that he generally believes in central sewer systems, even when there might not be indications that septic tanks are failing. "In places, especially along the coast where the water table is high and the soil is porous, some of the pollutants in even properly working septic tanks enter the water table and can flow into tidal creeks," he said. "It's even been demonstrated, especially in Florida where a lot of work has been done, that outgoing tides can pull the pollutants from the upper portion of the ground water table into surface waters."
Mallin conceded that absent stringent density controls, increased development and the resulting runoff can render the benefits negligible. But he added that the state's rules are better able to limit that damage than they were in the past.

When I was home this past weekend, the kids and I went out to the Dayton RV show. Pretty much, I had one goal in mind, take a look at the Grand Design Imagine 2800BH, and so I did. I was still feeling under the weather, so I didn't spend a lot of time at the show. We went long enough to see the RV I'm interested in, looked at a couple other brands, and then headed home. It was probably a waste of $10 to get in the show when I could have visited the local dealer for free, but I wanted to compare a couple brands they don't sell, so it wasn't a total loss.
I posted photos of the interior on the Facebook page, but I wanted to post them here as well, along with my thoughts. Unfortunately, I didn't get any outside shots, but in my defense, I was sick and wasn't thinking clearly!
When I first saw this model online, I didn't think I would be a fan of the dark wood color, but after seeing it in person, it really grew on me. I really liked the frosted glass look of the cabinet doors and the simple brushed hardware. And, since it would primarily be only me, there is plenty of storage in the kitchen for the necessities, you know, like wine glasses and beer mugs, haha! But seriously, after I downsize from what's in my current home, it would be a breeze packing my stuff in this rig, and still have room for my kids stuff when they come hang out. I like how the fabric of today's RVs are more neutral, and gone are the days of that 90's pink or green carpet and odd patterns that are impossible to match with anything. The door off of the bedroom is something that would have to grow on me I guess. There is a second door by the bunks though, so it's not a deal breaker issue. The bathroom was your typical travel trailer bathroom in layout, but the size seemed a little bigger, and the shower can accommodate an actual human. Plenty of storage in there as well for a single dude, or even a small family. And of course, my daughter loves the bunks, mostly because the mattresses had teddy bears on them and were really soft. She loves her stuffed animals!
And now the price. The model on display had all of the upgrade packages that Grand Design offers on the 2800BH, so the retail is $36k, but I believe the dealer near me has them at $33-34k. I wish I would have been ready to buy so I could get the show price, but it's just not the time yet. But, after walking through this one, I'm pretty much sold on it. It will just be closer to the end of the season before I can buy, but that might leave the option open to get a better price, or a new model for 2019.
So, we'll see what happens this fall.

The dominoes continue to topple at College Park as the University of Maryland attempts to assuage public outcry over its response to 19-year-old Jordan McNair's death.
Already, Maryland has fired D.J. Durkin, reversing its initial decision to reinstate the head football coach a day earlier.
On Thursday, James T. Brady, chairman of the University System of Maryland's Board of Regents, signaled his intention to resign from the position he's held since March 2015, as first reported by The Washington Post.
Brady informed the board of his decision during a private meeting in Baltimore. Barry Gossett, the board's vice chair, will assume the leadership role.
I noted this in the story on James Brady's resignation, but things become more tangled with Barry Gossett taking the chairman role. He is a staunch supporter of Damon Evans and has lobbied for him to stay throughout this process.
For the past three years, I have had the honor and privilege of helping to lead an incomparable group of highly talented and dedicated public servants, working collectively to support and improve Maryland's system of higher education. In doing so, I've been able to work with brilliant students, scholars and staff at universities across the system. This role has been one of the most satisfying of my life.
*And, the board appointed new presidents at seven institutions: Bowie State University, Coppin State University, Frostburg State University, Salisbury University, Towson University, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore and the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.
The board is an extraordinary body that does important work for the people and the state of Maryland. And I am committed to ensuring that the progress made by the university system in recent years continues.
In recent months, the board has engaged in a deep and thorough process of responding to issues arising out of the tragic death of Jordan McNair. I am very proud of that process.
From the beginning, we were determined to get all the facts before making the judgments and decisions we believed were in the best interest of the University of Maryland, College Park and its student-athletes. We hoped the lessons we would learn would positively affect student-athletes at universities across the system, the state and the nation.
I am also proud of the seriousness with which every member of the board took this responsibility. I want to thank them again for their service and their commitment to Maryland.
And I respect the many people – including elected leaders, members of the public and members of the board – who disagreed with the recommendations a majority of this board ultimately made. These were difficult decisions, based on information included in reports stemming from two investigations and a great deal of thought and deliberation.
I understand that reasonable people could come to other conclusions. And even among our board, some did.
Going forward, however, I believe the board needs to be able to return to the important business of supporting and advancing Maryland's public university system, for the benefit of its students and families, and of people across the state.
In recent days, I have become the public face of both the board and its decisions related to these matters. In my estimation, my continued presence on the board will inhibit its ability to move Maryland's higher education agenda forward. And I have no interest in serving as a distraction from that important work.
Accordingly, I will step down from the Board of Regents immediately.
I do so with thanks again to my many colleagues and friends on the board, at the University System of Maryland, and at every institution in that system. I'll always be proud of the work we have done together and look forward to observing the many things you will accomplish for the people of this state in the years to come.

Defunct Nigeria Airways Workers To Get Entitlements Worth N45bn
The Federal Government has expressed regret over the reported deaths of some workers of the defunct Nigerian Airways occasioned by the delay in the payment of their entitlements.
The defunct national carrier was liquidated by former President Olusegun Obasanjo regime in 2005, and since then the workers had held series of protests over their unpaid entitlements.
The Minister of State for Aviation, Sen. Hadi Sirika, however, told State House correspondents after the meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC), presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo that N45 billion had been to settle the ex-workers' entitlements.
"Governments, in the past, decided just to liquidate Nigerian airways without tending to the issue of the entitlements of the workers and they have been struggling to get that paid and we came in government and we took it very seriously.
"I'm happy to announce that Mr President has approved N45 billion which has been confirmed to be the entitlements of these workers and Ministry of Finance has been instructed to pay and the ministry has written to me last week, to say that they have received the instruction to pay these workers, and therefore, they are setting up the modalities to pay.
"You should know it won't pay through my ministry before somebody will say I take some of it. It will be paid by finance through a process, and that process will commence very soon,'' he said.
The Minister disclosed that the Council also approved the procurement of operational vehicles for Nigeria Port Authority (NPA) and the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA).
Sirika said he had briefed the council on the certifications of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos and the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet).
According to him, the certification is a huge step toward security and safety in the aviation sector.
He noted that the airport was first international Airport in Nigeria to meet International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) requirements and NCAA regulations.
On Aviation's workers' opposition to the concession of some of the nation's airports, the minister assured that the process would be transparently carried out and the workers would be fully engaged in the process.
The Air Transport Service Senior Staff Association and the National Union of Air Transport Employees have vowed to resist the plan, saying, if necessary, the workers would mobilize and buy over the airports themselves.
Sirika dismissed social media reports that he "stole or intend to spend N635 million'' on the concession project.
The minister noted that government would not be able to fund infrastructure in the aviation sector, as such it would continue to partner with the private sector in financing such facilities in the sector.
"We don't have the money to invest and develop these airports.
"In our opinion as a government and the policy has been done that we will go through concession to give some individuals who would build; who would operate; who would maintain, sustain, make money and government will also make money in the process and return back to government after certain number of years (20 to 25 years).''
Sirika disclosed that the concession of airports had since been approved by President Muhammadu Buhari as well as the Federal Executive Council.
The minister also revealed that the council had approved the hosting of International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) World Aviation Conference, to be held between Nov. 20 and 22.
He said the conference, which would be first outside Canada, was meant to deliberate on aviation infrastructure and other related aviation matters.
Also, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Mr Chris Ngige, said he briefed the council on the outcome of the various industrial actions by some trade unions in the country.
The minister dismissed reports that he had described the United Labour Congress (ULC) as an illegal labour union, saying that the Congress had since applied for registration as a labour centre or labour federation.
He commended the Academic Staff Union of Universities and the Nigeria Association of Resident Doctors for suspending their strike actions.

Each handcrafted kitchenware and culinary utensil in the Black Swan Handmade collection is designed and created by artist Park Swan, working alongside his wife Leslie and dog Maple of the Park Swan Team at their Virginia studio. An experienced sculptor, Park was drawn to the idea of producing objects which would be used and loved and first transitioned from making decorative and art-only pieces with the launch of Park Woodshop several years ago. Then, with his desire to incorporate a variety of materials in to his designs including copper, steel and titanium, Park Woodshop evolved to become Black Swan Handmade. Using responsibly sourced materials, from domestically grown and sustainably harvested woods to American-made metals, each item is designed, tested and made by hand by Park from start to finish with the goal of leaving behind the smallest possibly footprint while producing the highest possible quality. A process as rare as the Black Swan.

Same Ingredient Diet? Does It Really Benefit?
All of us have seen cows munching the same stuff all the time. Is it not? They just chew the same thing for hours and hours. Sometimes, dietician gives stern diet chart that consists of a single ingredient when we are on a mission to lose or gain weight. Has it happened to you as well? A common folk will think how can a human remain eating just a single thing when 'variety is the spice of life' is all we have been taught! But the so-called 'educated people' and snobs will see this 'common logic' as a contempt due to 'heavy degrees' they have attained while studying body requirements.
However, life is simple and not as complicated as people make it. When dieticians give a diet chart consisting of a single ingredient, there is a risk factor associated with it. In fact, it is just not a risk but a sure theory that in the long haul this diet is going to affect the body negatively. According to a survey where a client was kept on a moong dal diet, what she was allowed to eat was moong dal dishes day and night. The forms of the dishes changed but the ingredient was same. The results proved due to high consumption of proteins were kidney problems affected and drastically increased uric acid levels!
Also, extreme high protein diet leads to gout. The thing to understand here is eating only one kind of food in order to increase the lack of some protein leads to the deficiency of other proteins in our body, which is somewhat a form of 'malnutrition'. We 'humans' are not cows and our body is not made in a way to adopt only single ingredient. Even if your body feels filled, there is always some important ingredient which becomes absent from body's intake. So, it is right to ask your dietician about other stuff you should take while surrendering your body to such diet plans. More than anyone else, it is our responsibility to take care of our body after all!


Tottenham Hotspur forward Vincent Janssen might be out of Mauricio Pochettino's first team plans but he is certainly impressing for the club's under-23s.
The Dutchman led the line on Tuesday night against Athletic Bilbao and wasted no time in getting his name on the scoresheet with a goal after barely a minute.
The 24-year-old's last competitive match for the Lilywhites was August 20, 2017 when he came on late against Chelsea at Wembley, but despite the North London side's lack of attacking options with injuries to Harry Kane and Dele Alli, as well as the absence of Son Heung-min, Pochettino has indicated that there's no route back for the striker.
Pochettino said in his press conference: "I think it's so clear that now it's one year and a half that he's not in our plans. He's not in Tottenham's plans the player. That's so clear. Not in just the manager's plans but the club's plan.
With the end of the transfer window pressing nearer and Janssen showing a nose for goal in the youth ranks, some fans are desperate to see him given a chance ahead of Fernando Llorente.

Margaret Maher, Tom Kelley and Margaret's sister Mary, who married Tom.
Emily Dickinson's poetic prowess has been understood as the product of her reclusive lifestyle for the past one hundred and fifty years. Dickinson witnessed the shaping of a country during the turmoil of the Civil War and the assassination of Lincoln. But, unlike her contemporary Walt Whitman, who became the mouthpiece for a kinetic city overflowing with new immigrant life, Dickinson wrote poems that reflected her own circumstances, the solitary spaces of her own mind.
The portrayal of Emily Dickinson in most American classrooms is a grim one – the anti-social Dickinson sat in her room for most of her life, writing poems with strange grammatical impulses and macabre subject matter seemingly from another world.
The sheer volume of her work attests to this theory. Over the course of her lifetime Dickinson wrote almost 2,000 poems and countless letters. The perception of Emily Dickinson as the lone literary wolf of Amherst has gone unchallenged. Dickinson has no living descendants and her place in the canon of New England literature has long been cemented.
What new research could possibly rock Dickinson scholarship after practically every stone of her life had been turned? It was a small fact that seemingly had no immediate connection to Dickinson's poetry: Emily Dickinson shared her kitchen with an Irish immigrant for the last 17 years of her life.
Dickinson wrote on whatever she could – a chocolate wrapper, old shopping lists – all while baking for her family's household alongside Tipperary-born Margaret Maher. That relationship was all but forgotten until Aífe Murray came across a picture in the library that inspired over ten years of art, poetry, education and research.
In her 2010 book "Maid as Muse," Murray explores the relationship between Emily Dickinson and her Irish servants, focusing on the Maher and Kelley families. Murray not only proves that their mere presence helped increase Dickinson's writing by relieving her of household work, but that they may even have inspired some of her unusual syntax through exposure to the Hiberno-English dialect.
The Kelleys were less well off and did a "chain migration," sending members of the family over one by one as they raised the money. Though they moved up and down the East Coast, both families ended up in Amherst, MA where many other Irish had found work.
Over the years, Dickinson had employed several Irish servants, beginning in 1851 with Rosina Mack. Next came Margaret O'Brien, a maid who stayed with the Dickinson household until 1865. Searching for someone with a "mediating effect" on her family life and writing, Dickinson finally employed Margaret Maher, whose arrival changed the course of Dickinson's writing. Not only did Dickinson write in the kitchen while cooking with Maher, she trusted her with her poems.
They also shared writing to some degree – Maher came from "a locus of literary interest and the home most famously of writer Charles Kickham" in South Tipperary and spent her life around people who wrote. Although she wrote sparingly, Margaret also wrote creatively, and Dickinson would often respond to these short letters or poems with her own poetry, creating a bond of words between the two women.
Shockingly, Dickinson told Maher to destroy the poems upon her death. While her sister Lavinia burned Dickinson's correspondence after she died, Margaret found that she could not bring herself to destroy Dickinson's lifetime of work. In tears, she brought the poems to Dickinson's brother, who agreed that they should be saved. Maher also saved one of the few pictures we have of Emily Dickinson today, a daguerreotype that the family had discarded earlier.

The most potent draw in the kitchen is Margaret Maher, who Murray describes as "quite a force." While we cannot draw definite conclusions about the influence of Irish language on Dickinson's writing, Murray points out that Maher was possibly bilingual (her letters seem to suggest this with her overuse of the dative case) and that Hiberno-English made its way into some of Dickinson's poems.
Murray also considers Dickinson's attitude towards death, which was macabre compared to the consolation poetry of the time. "When I think of 'I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died' I think of the whole Irish sense of the grotesque with death. I don't think she was ever in a wake house but I think it's like the Irish take on death – laughing death down. She may have arrived on it independently but there is a similarity," Murray says. Upon her death, rather than having her family and close friends as pallbearers, Dickinson planned for six Irishmen – all former employees – to carry her casket. They carried her out the back door of the Dickinson residence, used primarily by the employees of the household.
For Irish Americans, Murray's research for "Maid as Muse" reveals yet another exciting example of the incalculable influence that Famine and post-Famine immigrants had on the shaping of American literature, history and culture. For everyone who has ever read a Dickinson poem, this work, in the words of Dickinson scholar Martha Nell Smith, "represents a sea change." Not only will researchers approach their understanding of Dickinson in a different way, museums are now changing their exhibits to reflect new discoveries.

Q: DHL Real Time Shipping calculator Is this possible to have DHL's api implemented into Shopify?
We are assuming you would need a custom UI inside Shopify as well.
Not sure why this feature is not offered as DHL has the best rates for international shipping.
Let us know if anyone is up to develop this and what cost would be.
Thanks in Advanced!

A: You can create an App that queries DHL for shipping rates. You can hook that up on the cart. That way your customers would know what DHL charges based on whatever it is you cooked up for your products. Weight based estimates differ from dimensional ones.
Assuming you got decent estimates on shipping you'd be then wanting to hook up shipping rates inside your Shopify to use DHL. That is the rub there. If you cannot hook up to DHL inside Shopify to setup rates, there is not much you can do inside checkout.
Perhaps Shopify has hooks now so a shop can call in their own shipping rates? Ask them.

A: StarShipIt have a real time calculator for Shopify and DHL, I suggest getting in contact with them.

A: Shopify has not provided carrier calculated shipping for DHL. Since this issue has been raised since 2008, I suspect they will not, at least for the near future. Personally, I have emailed tech support and have yet to receive a clear answer. If this is a necessity for your site, you may have to try another solution.

I picked the wrong week to return to Facebook.
It's no secret, I have a small capacity for the constant churning machine that social media often is. Most days, it's loud enough in my own head without adding voices of dissent and dissatisfaction muddying up my synapses. I suppose this is one right of the mentally ill. The removal of oneself from the entanglements of being ever present, ever vigilant, and ever available is self-care at its highest form. Maybe that's true for everyone, but (most) people give me a pass if I'm not online for weeks. Maybe it's the margin to heal that leaves my laptop collecting dust and my phone on silent in my purse.
It's not great for building platform or growing an audience for my writing, but it keeps me from not being around in a few years. I'd say that's a good trade.
Still, I made my comeback after several months of relative silence and logged back into my Facebook and Twitter. It was the week of the inauguration and Women's March. Now you may be one of those people who selectively chooses friends online who most always think as you do and live as you do and therefore like, post, and interact as you do. Maybe that's how some people survive the hostile waters of online social interaction, they simply keep their heads down and avoid the waves. But it's safe to say that for many of us, that's not the case.
You might have a crazy uncle who always posts fake news or a fellow church member whose Facebook opinions not only clash with yours but are diametrically opposed. You, like me, might scroll through your feed and find endless controversy from one post to the next because your friends and family are from such diverse viewpoints. You, like me, might find it hard not to feel outraged yourself by the things being posted.
But outrage is exhausting and destructive after a while unless it's impetus is channeled somewhere meaningful. It'll sure get you going, but it often doesn't end well.
We got a puppy at the end of October because as a homeschooling mother with bipolar depression trying to write my book and make sure I get a shower every once in a while, my life wasn't busy enough. That's another story for another time. What is relevant is that a few months in, despite our attempts at socializing him and training, we realized our puppy was showing signs of fear aggression. Suddenly his hair brush would elicit a low growl, he was unpredictable and snappy at times. I started researching solutions.
There are two main trains of thought regarding dog training and behavior. One is old school and often relies on punishment, dominance, and flooding. You are basically showing the dog who's boss and in turn will have a pet who is submissive to you. The problem is they're often resentful, distrustful, and scared of you too. Their training methods included advice to grab at the dogs collar when he growls, shaking him and yanking it. To hold him down on his side or clamp his mouth shut tight until he stops struggling. These tactics can include prong collars or choke chains, shock collars, and a practice called flooding.
The idea goes something like this, your dog has an irrational fear like his hair brush in the same way we have irrational fears like spiders or the dark. The method for curing these phobias is to "flood" the dog with the scariest thing possible, like holding him down and brushing him to then prove it's not scary at all, thus curing him. Imagine yourself locked in a room of spiders to overcome your fear of spiders. That's flooding, and although some psychologists still advocate for its efficacy, it's also predicated on the fact that a human can understand the process and consent, while a dog is just scared out of its mind.
The other problem is for many dogs, flooding backfires and instead you have what psychologists call learned or induced helplessness. I won't bore you with all the cruel science details, but basically dogs who were shocked and not given a way to stop the shock would often just lay down helplessly getting shocked even when transferred to a pen that could easily be escaped by jumping over a small divide. On the contrary, dogs that were able to stop the shock in some way quickly avoided subsequent shocks in the divided pen by jumping over because they had learned that their actions could work to eliminate pain. The others just thought why bother and gave up.
So why am I talking about shocking dogs and conditioning? Because I'm tired and it's late, but also because outrage at high levels for a continuous amount of time feels a lot like flooding. The thought process behind flooding is that you face your distorted fears at such a high level of arousal and stress eventually you just shut down. You're provoking trauma. Adrenaline and fear response is limited. It can't perpetuate itself without an eventual crash and the inevitable docility and abandon that comes from being spent is supposed to reprogram your reactions. Your emotions basically go dormant waiting to resurface and possibly erupt.
You just relent to the stimulus and hope you survive. I'm kind of kidding when I say Facebook is like that, but I'm also kind of not.
Last week, I logged on and scrolled past countless posts and links and comment tirades from every possible vantage point but the one commonality for the ugliest ones was outrage. How could so and so associate with so and so and such and such!?! How could so and so call themselves a Christian if such and such and this and that? We feel entitled to make grand sweeping statements aiming at whoever is in our targets at the time but the same social connection that draws us to social media is the one that makes it easier than ever to disconnect.
Now let me preface this with a small disclaimer. I have thoughts and opinions I'm passionate about. I get angry. I get frustrated and yes, I get outraged. Being a Christian will do that to you because when you care about the Imago Dei and the Glory of God in this world, and you see the church prostituting herself, or your neighbor hurting, you get kind of fired up, or at least you should. Even Jesus was known to flip a table or two. But there's also the Jesus that rebuked Simon Peter when he chopped off a servant of the high priest's ear after they asked "Lord, should we strike with our swords?" Jesus' obvious answer was, "No more of this!" Some of us have tongues as sharp as swords, and we've gone all rage-faced and stabby in defense of Jesus, just like Simon Peter did.
I don't think outrage brought on my our convictions is in itself bad. But the constant level of outrage for outrage's sake is like that limp dog quivering in the corner because no matter what you say or how eloquent your SHOUTY CAPS are, the human spirit can only endure so much before we too shut down.
Eventually we're useless to jump the divider and heal, and instead we remain in our shock and pain.
You can't just erase outrage, no matter how hard you hold it down. It will always morph into something else. Possibly apathy, maybe resentment, or fear or hate. For me, it's often exhaustion, a bone deep weariness and a slow steady downward bend towards cynicism and despair.
Needless to say, we went a different way with dog training. We chose positive training which relies heavily on reinforcing positive behaviors and redirecting their fears towards productive outcomes. I carry cut up hot dogs in small Ziplock bags in my pocket. Sometimes I forget they're in there and I find them when I'm doing laundry. I don't just teach him not to jump up, I teach him how to sit instead. I don't just chase him around the house trying to get the tissue he dug out of the trash, I teach him to drop it happily on command. It works (most of the time) because right now, I have hot dogs. He knows he can release the grubby old tissue because he's going to get something better. Trainers call this the higher value lure. It replaces something they think they want at the time with something they didn't even know they want but is much better. It also creates happy feelings in my puppy and a general sense of peace.
Maybe it's this way for us too? Maybe we can channel our outrage into meaningful things that actually give hope instead of just growling and guarding our tired old bones. Maybe we can do more than just shutting down, instead replacing our outrage with action and remembering we're not powerless. Let's be slower to speak, quicker to listen. Slow to anger, and rich with unfailing love.
Maybe grace can make a way forward, and the gospel can do what it was always meant to do: leap the great divide.

Ship design for the Midway Alignment project has reached an intensive phase. The Initial Design of the ferry was completed in April, and it is now followed by a more extensive and detailed chapter, the so-called Basic Design phase.
– The first tests were performed during week 19 in the open waters of SSPA's towing tank in Gothenburg, Sweden. The tests were carried out with a seven-metre model dragged at various speeds, while the resistance was simultaneously registered with advanced measuring equipment. The results were then proportioned to the actual ship with the help of standardized methods. This provides important input for further ship design and for the next phase in the Hull Optimization Programme, says Thorvald Hvistendahl, Naval Architect and Project Manager at SSPA.
The next phase in the Hull Optimization Programme was to perform similar tests with the same model in an ice basin. These tests proceeded according to plan and provided promising results. The ferry passed all the tests, and the collected data is now ready to be put together.
These results form an important basis for the continuing optimization and design work of the new ferry.

In the Summer of 2016, I made a road trip that started in Detroit, Michigan for a few days, on to the Concours of America car show in Plymouth Michigan with a final destination to the "windy city" of Chicago. It wasn't windy while on the other hand, Chicago definitely did not disappoint. Historic architecture, parks, and open spaces sitting on the Great Lakes and a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago to see my favorite American painter, Edward Hopper's paintings, Nighthawks, New York Movie and Gas. More to do than in my four days there but as usual with traveling, a promise to come back again. These photographs are the result of my wanderings around Chicago.

The ball begins on the ground with its long axis parallel to the sidelines of the field, its ends marking each team's line of scrimmage in American football; in Canadian football, the line of scrimmage of the team without the ball is 1 yard past their side of the ball. A player, the Center, delivers the ball to another player, and that action is the snap. The Center may hand, throw, or even roll the ball to the other player. The snap must be a quick and continuous movement of the ball by one or both hands of the Center, and the ball must leave the Center's hands. The various rules codes have additional requirements, all of which have the effect of requiring the ball to go backwards to a player behind the line of scrimmage (i.e. in the "backfield"). The Center is almost always the center. The Center almost always passes the ball between his legs, but only in Canadian football is that required. Additional rules apply regarding the positioning and stance of the Center as one of several "line" players in anticipation of the snap.
For a handed snap, the Center will usually have his head up, facing opponents. For a thrown snap, especially in formations wherein the ball may be snapped to players in different positions, the Center will commonly bend over looking between his legs. Because of the vulnerability of a player in such a position, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the National Federation of State High School Associations ("Fed") have adopted rules providing that if a player is positioned at least 7 yards behind the neutral zone to receive a snap, opponents are not to deliberately contact the Center until one second after the snap (NCAA), or until the Center has a chance to react (Fed). However, in professional football it is common for a center to be able to practice a single "shotgun" formation thrown snap enough to keep his head up and toss it blindly.
The defensive team is not allowed to simulate, by calling out numbers, the offense's snap count. Successfully simulating the count would cause members of the offensive team to act too early ruining co-ordination of the play and inviting penalties. Current rules, unlike earlier rules, position officials so far from the line of scrimmage for 50 minutes of the 60 minute match that it is extremely difficulty to hear if the defense is simulating the count.

Happy Campers: greetings from Paris, France! While I do have to say that the gluten-free bread here is completely lacking compared to that of Happy Camper's, la vie est belle, as they say, in this city of lights. Or rain. It's been very Portland-esque here of late!
I am happy "urban camping" and training with some pretty commendable chefs (Michelin stars all around). That being said, my heart and soul are profiting from the knowledge I am getting, and my inspiration to transform everything I am trained to cook into something suitable for a more sensitive digestive system is augmenting exponentially.
However, if you are gluten-free, good luck ordering this tender beef dish at a French restaurant (or any restaurant for that matter) and it being a safe dish for you to consume. The famous sauce is thickened with flour, wheat flour of course, and that is why the entire plate tastes so succulent when slow-cooked with the falling-off-the-bones meat.
Does it need wheat flour? Absolutely not! Tradition and convenience simply calls for it in the recipe, but many other thickening agents will do.
Marinate your meat: clean away the fat from the edges of the meat, cut into 2" cubed pieces, and place in a large clean bowl. Top with all marinating ingredients (including wine), cover air-tight, and keep at least overnight (12 hours). Marinate for up to 48 hours.
You're ready to cook? Good! Pre-heat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Heat enough high heat oil in a saute pan to cover the pan generously (about 2-3 tablespoons) over medium-high to high heat. Once oil is very hot, but not fully smoking, sear about 1/3 of your meat pieces with no overlap for about 1 minute on each side (this is important, because you want to caramelize your meat pieces. If there is less than 1 inch in between each piece, don't add any more meat into the pan). Continue with all pieces of meat. The bottom of your pan will look burnt, but don't worry, the taste won't translate into the dish. Keep searing all sides of the meat until browned on each side, but not cooked through. Transfer to a large casserole dish when meat is cooked.
Meanwhile, or after (depending upon your multi-tasking skills), heat another tablespoon of high heat oil in a saute pan over medium high heat and sear your vegetables from the marinade.
Once your marinading sauce has boiled and all of your meat and vegetables have been seared, add to the large casserole dish with the meat. Stir in rice flour, coating all pieces. Then stir in tomato. Add stock (or water) until it almost covers the ingredients, add a bay leaf, cover tightly, and pop in the oven. Bake for 3-4 hours, until meat is tender. Check on it once after 15 minutes of cooking to make sure no meat is sticking to the bottom of the pan, cover again, and don't check on it again until 2 1/2 hours later, making sure the liquid is saucy and has not evaporated.
Two hours into the cooking, cook your potatoes however you want to eat them.
After about 3 hours of cooking, you're reading to serve: remove casserole from the oven, and taste for salt. Season with 1 tsp. salt and add more if you find it necessary for your palette. Stir and let sit one minute. Fish out your pieces of meat into a bowl. Strain the sauce onto the pieces of meat through a fine metal strainer. Mix gently with a large spoon. Divvy the potatoes up onto plates and divide meat with sauce accordingly. Serve with a side of Happy Campers toasted bread to serve in the sauce.
