Fringe – "Northwest Passage"
I didn't necessarily need to go back to review last week's episode of Fringe, considering that I saw it quite a few days late and it wasn't particularly spectacular, but there was some interesting conversation about the show on Twitter that I wanted to comment on. Alan Sepinwall, having moved to his new home at HitFix was asked on Twitter about why he wasn't writing about Fringe at the new site, and he responded by noting that the show had fallen out of his rotation before the move, and it just wasn't compelling to him at this point. This resulted in responses begging Alan to reconsider, as the episodes since the Spring hiatus have been particularly strong and no one could understand why he remained unmoved.
I was more compelled by the show's Spring episodes than Alan, but watching "Northwest Passage" I found myself thinking back to his commentary – while there are some fun elements of this episode, there is a manipulative quality to the episode which keeps me at a distance from the story at hand. The conclusion is big and bombastic, but it ends up having nothing to do with the episode itself, and I find the show at its most frustrating when it creates moments which seek to overpower, rather than crystallize, earlier elements in each episode. It's the sort of crass serialization that got Abrams in trouble on Alias, and I think the show needs to be wary of it.
Martha Plimpton has been a highlight this TV season, turning in some fine supporting work on How to Make it In America and also delivering some great guest appearances on The Good Wife, so having her show up here was a nice turn of events. The basic premise of the episode worked well, as Peter has to convince Plimpton of his crazy theories and works his way through his former uncertainties regarding this case, so on a character level it worked pretty well, and Joshua Jackson has done a nice job of adding complexity to Peter as a character over the past season. A show like Fringe does well to take its status quo and apply it to situations where people will be skeptical/uncertain, and the sense of invasion as Newton's methods clash with the general population was smartly played.
My issue is that the conclusion, as we learn that Walternate was the Secretary they have spoken of in the past and that he is the person who has been organizing the shapeshifters in order to "rescue" Peter, doesn't entirely make sense. The whole mystery phone call situation, and the desperate quest to find Peter, never comes together: in fact, the episode even tries to trick us into thinking it was all in Peter's mind. I'm still struggling with why they were calling Peter instead of just grabbing him, or why they needed to kidnap people instead of interrogating them; Peter's explanations were vague for the sake of Plimpton's character not learning too much, but I've seen every episode of the show and I don't understand either. It seemed like the show was being more opaque than it actually needed to in order to heighten suspense and mystery, and there was some sense that the ending was supposed to connect the dots when all it really did was scribble across the page and flip to the next one.
I'll admit that some of my issues have to do with watching the preview for next week, where the sight of a manuscript page featuring weird text and Peter's image gave me all sorts of Alias flashbacks that the show is best to avoid. That show ran into problems when it equated mythology and "big" storytelling with good storytelling, when it used big reveals and shocking surprises even once they had run out of any connection to the show's characters. Here, John Noble is fantastic enough that anything surrounding Walter will probably work pretty well, but I don't want them to fall so far into the "mystery" of things that everything else gets lost. Here, the big reveal is certainly interesting (if quite predictable based on what we've seen to this point), and I'm looking forward to watching Noble play two different characters, but I felt like it tried to fill in too many gaps that the episode needed to do itself in order to really connect with me.
Instead, it felt like the show arbitrarily transitioning to this next stage in the season rather than clearly using Peter's experience to get there, a bait and switch which ramps up tension in a way which keeps me from feeling like a part of the process. I think I'm still more engaged with the series than Alan is, but moments like this are hyped as big moments but sometime at the expense of the subtlety the show is capable of (see: White Tulip, and bits and pieces of this week's story).
I feel like I'm going crazy and conflating them in my mind, but I swear I've seen that bridge area before in Kings, Human Target and Caprica. I don't think Kings shot in Vancouver, which would make it impossible, but it just seemed really, really familiar to me.
I'd normally hope that Noble playing two versions of the same character would help him in the race for the Emmy, but Terry O'Quinn already has that gimmick locked up.

I fully agree that the episode was problematic in Newton and Walternate's plot to get to Peter making as little sense as Peter's attempted explanation of it. There were a lot of elements to it that never gelled together, and while it's possible they'll be explained later, it was hard to buy the connections within this 44 minute stretch. Compounding the nonsensical actions by Newton were Peter's desperate rationalizations for not calling the FBI in. His desire to be away from Walter approached dangerous levels of conscious negligence regarding the episode's case. This was partially a necessity of the procedural nature of the show – we need Peter alone but we also need to have him involved in a case – but it was still incredibly hard to forgive.
After all, here's a new man in town who knows an awful lot about a series of kidnappings that result in grotesque brain operations, who is disturbingly stubborn about not calling in proper authorities and oh, he wants to take a tissue sample from you. Naturally, Peter's partner happens to "want to believe" so she never follows her gut and saves herself from this crazy man. Peter had some serious psychoses going on, if not for the script working to his favor in the end.
Unfortunately, that psychological element was never really touched upon and Peter's unfounded promises to the sheriff turned out correct as the partner was found relatively unharmed (which made no sense given the timetables for the other disappearances) and the conspiracy did in fact turn out to be aimed at finding Peter (though how any of those kidnapping/murders helped, I have no idea).
In short, the step-by-step plotting of the episode was beyond my ability to suspend disbelief. If I were around Peter during this escapade, I'd have him locked up while real authorities stepped in.
"when it creates moments which seek to overpower, rather than crystallize, earlier elements in each episode"
That's really insightful.
I enjoyed the episode a lot on a moment-by-moment basis, but I had the same problem, that the ending struck me as not really following logically from what we'd seen throughout episode.
re: the bridge, in the "Human Target" episode with the Cigarette-Smoking Man, and in the "Caprica" episode where Mrs. Graystone flashes back to her brother's death, I think we might have seen the same bridge. I don't remember it in "Kings," though.

Pumpkin carving planned
Pumpkins will be turned into works of art at a pumpkin carving gala Saturday at Santa Fe Park in Peabody. Sunflower Theatre is sponsoring the event in exchange for donations to its renovation project.
Shirley Davis will provide stencils, child-safe tools, and pumpkin knives for children and adults to participate.
"I've had a lot of grandkids come to my house and carve pumpkins over the years, and I've saved the carving tools from year to year," she said. "Then I have some professional carving tools. I've always kind of liked to carve pumpkins."
Markers and stickers for pumpkin decoration will also be provided, as well as water for hand-washing and buckets to collect pumpkin guts.
Participants should bring their own pumpkins and chairs, and children 9 and younger should bring an adult. Finger food to snack on while carving will be available.
Carving starts at 2:30 p.m. If weather isn't permitting, carving will be moved into Pop's Diner — with plenty of tablecloths.
Davis is aiming to collect as many pumpkin seeds as possible to roast. Other pumpkin scraps are to be given to Marilyn Jones to feed her goats and chickens.

Where we fish on Lake Michigan, two rods per each angler are allowed. We like to fish with Fenwick HMGs, Abu Garcia Conolon Premiers, and St. Croix Legends, which are perhaps the best musky rods for sale today. Each of these musky rods feature medium-heavy power and medium-fast action. For night time musky fishing, we place strips of white, reflective 3M automotive tape about 25 inches below the musky rod tip in order to help us see how the rod tips are performing after dark.
The only true way for any fisherman to know for sure which musky rods work best in a given season is to get out there and fish. One needs to really experiment with different brands and lengths of muskie rods. I personally prefer to use a longer musky rod, since I find that it gives me better lure control. That being said, I do sometimes like to switch things up.
When the water is cool, like in spring or fall, I use longer musky rods, with a medium-heavy action. This allows me to cast larger lures further, and gives me better control of the heavier bait.
When the water temperatures warm up into the 60 degree range, I may switch to a slightly shorter musky rod. This is because in the summer, I may use smaller, lighter lures, and having a lighter and shorter rod allows for better control over these types of lures. Jerk baits and crank baits can be more easily controlled with a shorter, medium action muskie rod.
When I am out in the boat alone, I fish with one musky rod out on both sides of the boat, with each of the musky rods perpendicular to the fishing boat and parallel to the surface of the lake. With multiple musky rods set, I have to clear the muskie rods from the side of the boat if a muskie bites. Then, if necessary, I will clear the other side of the boat for a bigger fish.
Using a six musky rod set is essentially the same as using the four muskie rod set, with the main difference being that the other 2 musky rods are set in rod holders towards the bow of the boat. I will typically run these fishing lines by spreading them out with some in-line boards. I additionally use the 3M reflective tape on inside and top of the boards for night muskie fishing. I picked up this tip from my good buddy Sam over at MarinFish.org.
When I have several fishermen with me in the boat, I will run my musky rods on the left (port) side of the boat, since I am driving. It's best when I put one of my longer musky rods (6.5′ to 8′) up towards the front of the boat, as far forward as possible. I try to have this musky rod parallel to the lake and perpendicular to the boat. My second muskie rod is about 5.5-6.5′ long and is placed should be in a fishing rod holder about 12 inches or more behind the front musky rod. This rod is angled with it's tip up a bit about 20-30 degrees. By placing the rods in this configuration, I get about a 4-foot fishing line spread, which helps to reduce my chances for line tangles.
Perhaps the most important aspect of trolling for muskies in Lake Michigan is finding the best electric trolling motor for sale online. Next up is proper boat control, which is to say keeping your musky lures at the proper depth and in the right place, and running the boat at the correct speed to ensure that you cover lots of lake surface efficiently. Spending ample time out on the lake practicing controlling your fishing boat is really the best way to learn how to properly maneuver your boat to get your desired results.
The most effective way to remain on proper depth settings is to utilize two sonar fish finder units simultaneously, with one transducer mounted on the bottom of trolling motor at the front of the boat, and the other at the stern. This method enables you to read the depth on the front fish finder 14 to 21 feet and a few seconds before your musky lures get to that spot. This time allows you to make critical adjustments to your lures to keep them functioning properly along bottom edges.
For my money, the best electric trolling motor for sale that I found was the Minn Kota Endura C2 30. This electric trolling motor starts at only $99, which makes it's value hard to beat. It has 5 forward speeds combined with 3 reverse speeds which have proven to provide great boat control while trolling. This electric trolling motor boasts of having an "indestructible composite shaft" and is backed by a lifetime warranty. If you have a little higher budget than I did however, you may want to get a trolling motor with a few more features. One place that I found helpful with lots of electric trolling motor reviews was BoomerangSportFishing.com.
While it is true that the majority of the muskies that I catch while trolling are swimming along some sort of edge, like the edge of a rock bar, or a weed edge. However, I also catch hungry muskie out in the middle of what seems like nowhere, but odds are good that a school of smaller baitfish and/or some type of structure is close by. By maintaining the ideal course that keeps your muskie lures working right along the edges that you find, you are sure to catch muskies consistently while trolling. Having the best electric trolling motor for sale makes this task far more simple.
During the summer months I typically focus on tiger muskies roaming in the open water along the shores of Jean Klock Park, where there are schools of small baitfish. When fall rolls around, however, I focus on areas that have a little more current, which I have found usually attracts baitfish. Causeways and bridges also tend to attract fish. Having a good electric trolling motor makes it easy to troll both downstream or upstream from any position, while you look for the best areas which hold the most baitfish.
Lastly, as fall approaches and water temperatures start to drop near 45F, I have more success trolling for muskies at nighttime near baitfish-rich areas, and trolling at a speed of about 1 mph. Granted, trolling for muskies on Lake Michigan at night should only be left to anglers with many years of experience.
Check out this neat video I came across of two guys explaining some of the basics of trolling for muskies.
This past summer, we have been doing a lot more research and fishing in Lake Michigan at night. While we don't recommend night fishing on Lake Michigan for beginner anglers, experienced muskie fishermen with a properly equipped boat should be OK. By properly equipped, one of the things that we are referring to is your boat's lighting. We have recently been comparing HID headlights vs. OPT7 LED boat lights for use on our boat. At this point, we tend to be leaning more towards some of the LED boat lights for sale.
Our good friend Willie over at Red-Corvettes.com recently upgraded his Corvette with some OPT7 LED headlights, and he highly recommended the OPT7 brand.
A fair amount of interest in LED boat lights has been generated within nearly every aspect of the sport boating community, from casual fishing boat skipper to the commercial fishing fleet captains. There are a lot of solid reasons for this, although possibly the most important of those reasons is the efficiency of LED boat lights. While any homeowner willing to try new energy efficient lighting solutions which will likely save them some money, boaters like us have an even greater need for energy efficient lighting, such as LED boat lights.
Out on a boat, unlike your office or home, electrical power is not as readily available. As most of you know, the electrical power on board of a boat needs to be generated by burning gas and supplied by battery banks. Sure, some electricity can be harnessed by alternative means such as wind and solar, these alternatives are not yet to the point of being capable of fully meeting a boat's entire electrical demands.
Battery technology has come a long way in recent years, but they too need to be closely watched when operating electrical devices out on the lake. Most boats have multiple items running off of their spare batteries, such as radios, fish finders, and trolling motors. With all of these things draining power from the batters, there is very little juice left for marine lighting.
LED boat lights offer significant efficiency improvements thanks to their ability to emit a good deal of light while using very little power. Traditional incandescent light bulbs can at most produce about 18 lumens of light per wattage, good quality OPT7 LED boat lights can generate in excess of 65-85 lumens per wattage, and some LED boat lights now even exceed 95 and 110 lumens per wattage. Clearly, this is a significant improvement over traditional incandescent boat lights, and this allows boaters to generate more light while using only a tiny fraction of the power.
It used to be that a modest 30 foot boat might have had 8 halogen deck lights burning up 800 watts to produce 6200 lumens. Today, three LED boat lights using only 245 watts can generate over 16,000 lumens! It's pretty clear why LED boat lights have become so popular with boaters.
LED boat lights have made significant advancements in the past five years. When LED boat lights first came onto the market, people complained about the color of the light that LEDs produce and their overall lack of brightness. Today, however, LED boat lights easily beat the quality of light which is produced by fluorescent lights, and definitely out shine incandescent bulbs by every measure. A key characteristics of today's OPT7 LED boat lights is that they produce well focused, high intensity light.
Some of the more interesting LED boat lights are being produced by HydroGlow.
If looking at pure light power, few sources are able to rival HID headlights for boats. High Intensity Discharge, or HID, bulbs use a set of contacts which are in a glass, gas filled tube to generate an arc which ignites a chemical reaction with the gas and then produces a plasma reaction. Once started, this reaction is easily maintained with low voltage electrical current and emits an intense flood of light. A combination of specially designed housing and reflectors, HID headlights are great for use in a large variety of applications where an efficient and intense source of light is required. Available in nearly most all configurations imaginable, HID headlights are used in industrial, automotive, agricultural, and marine applications on an ever increasing basis.
Perhaps the top benefit of HID headlights for boats is their energy efficient nature. HID headlights emit a good deal more lumens per wattage than their traditional incandescent cousins, thus enabling them to generate more light with much less power. While they do require a high initial amp drawing at startup, as soon as the arc has been started, HID headlights for boats require very little power to maintain them. This is a huge benefit in applications that have limited power, such as with smaller boats. Rather than needing an entire series of halogen spotlights connected together and using a heavy amperage load simply to make adequate light, one set of HID headlights can be mounted and will generate that same light with far less power consumption and a better quality of light to boot.
Our conclusion is that when it come to HID headlights vs LED boat lights, the LED's are the winner in most applications. LED boat lights are smaller and more efficient than HID headlights. And, the cost of OPT7 LED boat lights has really come down in recent years. There are also a large variety of led boat lights for both interior and exterior applications. There are even underwater LED boat lights available. How cool is that?
As a follow up post to our recent article about how portable sonar fish finders are being used on Lake Michigan, we thought it would be nice to share with you how to make your own DIY portable fish finder. To do this, you must begin with the best portable fish finder for sale online.
Recently, several of our readers have asked us to show them how we turned our Lowrance DS-12 Gen3 fishfinder into a portable fish finder. It's rather simple, actually. Through the years we get a few ideas from our readers, and ultimately we devised this solution. However, we have seen quite a few other, very unique versions used by other anglers.
utilized in the bag or it can be removed and attached onto the gunnel of a canoe or small boat. The depth finder transducer is affixed onto a little shelf bracket, with a spring loaded clamp bolted on it so that it too can be easily and quickly released or attached. We picked up this idea from a fisherman named "Hoss" who used to deliver salmon trolling seminars some years back. The idea worked so well, that we have been using the same old bracket for 15 years now! Now only is it cheap, it also takes only a second or two to attach onto the stern of your boat.
To start, the transducer needs to be bolted on to the 25″ shelf track, and then the 8″ Spring clamp needs to be bolted onto the opposing side of the shelf track. These items can both be bought from any local hardware store. It is important that you use stainless steel bolts and nuts to connect them. Additionally, you will need an electric drill, and a few cable ties.
When it comes to the fish finder bracket, you should use a Rite-Lok "Grunnel Clamp" on to which you then will be mounting a small piece of Starboard or wood. We simply went with a small piece of a bamboo cutting board that we bought for only $5. To this piece of bamboo we mounted the portable fish finder bracket. Depending on which type of bag that you buy, you will need to make adjustments to the mounting position and the size of the wood in order to get everything to fit properly. After you have that situated, you can begin to bolt everything together. Do yourself a favor and be sure to fit the whole thing in your bag first.
For the portable fish finder bag, we like to use soft lunch box coolers. We found a couple at the Walmart, but we really prefer the "Gusty" brand of lunch cooler that you can find at Lowes or on Amazon. It's super strong and costs only about $18. The bag is padded to help protect your portable fish finder, and it also features pockets for your fishing tackle.
Once you have your bag selected, you need to install a 12 volt sealed battery inside of the bag. 12 volt batteries come in a variety of sizes, but a battery between 6 amps and 13 amps should suffice. We used to use a 6 amp battery with our older black & white depth finder. However, now for our newer color portable fish finder, we had to use something more a bit more powerful, so we now use a 12 amp battery. A battery this size should easily last you all day while fishing, but you could also dim the LCD display as a way to conserve power. Perhaps because our Lowrance has GPS and Sidescan technology, it probably consume a lot more power than our old B&W portable fish finder, in conjuction with the backlit display. Suitable batteries can be found online for around $20. You want to be certain to also buy a decent charger.
You may be able to see that we made our transducer able to disconnected. In order to do this, we purchased a transducer extension cable from Lowrance and simply spliced it in. This should be simply if you are comfortable with soldering and splicing small wires. This is optional, however, as you don't have to make the transducer detachable. Instead, you would simply hardwire the depth finder transducer to the back of your portable fish finder. Either way will work and is totally up to you.
We have included a video below which helps to better illustrate how this setup works. We wrote this post not necessarily as an instructional guide, but more so to simply give you some an idea of what is possible if you wanted to make your own portable fishfinder. If you would instead like to pick up a true portable fish finder for sale, check out LakeForkProFishingGuide.com for more information on portable fish finders.
There are many great things to do in Jean Klock Park and the nearby water front. From volleyball and biking to building sand castles and playing golf. My favorite activity, by far, is fishing out in the beautiful waters of Lake Michigan that line the shore of the park. If you think about it, though, we don't really know what lies under the surface of Lake Michigan. With the help of a team of scientists using portable sonar fish finders, we are starting to find out.
Most of the Lake Michigan floor has remained unexplored. However, with new portable sonar fish finder technology, a research project is underway to find out what is under the water just beyond the beaches of Jean Klock Park.
Since spring of 2015, a team of research scientists has been cruising Lake Michigan along the Jean Klock Park shore, as well as to the north and south to create a complete map of the lake bed.
A few weeks ago, I had a chance to briefly speak to Robert Klapper, the Chief Scientist for the project. According to Mr. Klapper, "A traditional nautical chart has a few depth soundings on it, you know, just simple discrete locations. However, our underwater map is continuous. What that means is that we are able see the peaks and valleys, the ledges, and the ridges of the lake bottom. This is all important info for us as researchers to draw the linkages between the lake floor's habitat and the various types of living organisms which inhabit it." Mr. Klapper was referring to the portable sonar fish finder that the researchers are using.
Once a week, the boat 'Tilly Mae' zigzags across the water, utilizing a portable sonar fish finder to scan the lake floor. The boat emits sonar pings in a wide fan, creating a picture on an LCD screen from data of the lake floor. This is not your average cheap fish finder. This portable fish finder uses side sonar imaging, much like the one in the following video.
After several weeks of back and forth cruising, the sonar fish finder provides traditional chart info, such as depth, in amazing detail. Again, this is not your uncle's regular old cheap portable fish finder.
The portable fish finders sonar data reveals much more than just depth. Thanks to the advanced sonar echo of their portable fish finder, the scientists can decipher if the bottom is soft, sandy, hard, has seagrass or any other objects on the lake floor. To be sure, I would love to have one of these the next time that I go tiger muskie fishing out on Lake Michigan.
The sonar fish finder technology that they are using is somewhat similar to commercial fish finders, except these fish finders use scientific grade echo sounders.
The portable depth sounder transmits a ping, or pulse of sound. The ping is then transmitted up and down through the lake's water column and the ping reflects off of everything that is in the lake's water column which is of a different density than any of the other surrounding media.
Each day and night as the boat cruises back and forth to shore, the sonar fish finder 'sees' the fish and plots this important info onto the maps.
By joining the sonar fish finder data with their own direct observations, the research team is able to create detailed maps of the lake bed habitat.
All of researchers scientific data that is collected along Jean Klock Park shores will help fish biologists to better understand the fish in the area, in particular salmon and musky, and will provide insight into lake and water changes elsewhere in the state.
Located along the shores of Lake Michigan, Jean Klock Park is one of Michigan's great treasures. Growing up in the area, I can remember dad taking me out in the boat in Lake Michigan along the shores of the beach of Jean Klock Park. Out on the lake, we would fish primarily for salmon, which is what most fishermen of Lake Michigan aim to catch. But, did you know, that Lake Michigan is also home to some rare musky and even rarer tiger muskies? Although, muskies are rarely caught on Lake Michigan, as very few anglers actually set out to go tiger muskie fishing in Lake Michigan. Grab one of your favorite muskie rods and get ready as we explain more about tiger musky fishing in Lake Michigan.
According to the Michigan DNR, Michigan is home to two types of muskie – the Northern musky and the Great Lakes muskie. In 2011, the state shifted it's focus more towards raising Great Lakes muskie. Tiger muskies, which are a hybrid between muskellunge and northern pike, used to also be stocked in Michigan. However, tiger muskies are no longer being raised in Michigan fish hatcheries. While more abundant in in-land lakes with more northern pike, naturally-produced tiger muskie are very rarely caught on Lake Michigan.
The reason that muskies in Lake Michigan are so rare, and almost always caught by "accident", is because the lake lacks something that most smaller lakes offer. Structure. You see, Lake Michigan is essentially a giant sand box under all of that water. In order to thrive in larger numbers, musky require weed beds, rock piles, and steep edges. The flat bottom and lack of structure make Lake Michigan less ideal for tiger muskie than smaller lakes.
The Great Lakes muskie of Michigan are by far most common in the Detroit River and the very popular Lake St. Clair. Lake St. Clair features world-class tiger muskie fisheries, and offers an extensive fleet of musky charter boats that aim to catch muskellunge by trolling for muskies. Additionally, the number of smaller, private boat anglers that jig or cast for musky also continues to grow. The Lake St. Clair musky season opens the first Saturday in June and closes on December 15th. The later tiger muskie season is because the water system is fed by much colder, Lake Michigan water.
Interest in fishing in Michigan is likely to increase thanks to the focus on Great Lakes muskie and the number of lakes that have been stocked with them. This is great news for the state's economy. The shift to muskies is anticipated to lure anglers in from other states, like Wisconsin and Indiana. Although, it will take several years before the muskies are more common in the catch. Using Lake St. Clair's musky fishery as a guide of what to expect, muskie fishing in Lake Michigan is something worth waiting for.
Check out this video of awesome tiger muskie fishing in Michigan. If this doesn't get your blood pumping, or make you want to help to preserve Michigan's natural wonders like Jean Klock Park, then we don't know what will.
Back in February of 2014, Howard Meyerson wrote a great article describing the musky stocking efforts of the state. The author doe s a nice job of explaining the details of the state's muskie stocking program. We encourage you to give it a read. You can also learn more about tiger muskies at TigerMuskie.net.

This Weekend in Standardbred Racing: 13-14 June
With more and more tracks reopening off the Covid 19 pandemic, the sport of Standardbred Racing continues to gather momentum. For this weekend's top races, we go to Hawthorne Park in Cicero, Illinois, the Meadowlands in New Jersey and Northfield Park in Northfield, Ohio.
Hawthorne Park will feature a plethora of Stakes races on Saturday including Race: 2, The Dave McGee Pace which will be led by Synra, who won her only start this year in a field best 1:57.2.
Race: 3 is the Peachy Plum, Castielle, the only two time winner in 2020 in this field, will square off against Sleazy Gal, who is 1 for 1 this year and paced a 1:56 flat mile that day.
Race: 5 is the Robert F. Carey Memorial. A field of 10 has been assembled and, on paper, it looks to be a wide open affair. The standout appears to be He`zzz A Wise Sky, who paced a strong 1:53.2 last time out.
Skipping up to Race: 7 is the Bob Larry Pace. Toxic Rock, who is 4 for 4 this year, will most likely be your post time favorite.
My Uptowne Girl, a three time winner in 2020, and Nightgirl, a five time winner this year, will square off in the The Walter Paisley Pace.
The second leg of the Bob Larry Pace will finish up the Stakes action on the card as Race: 10. Fox Larry Lincoln, the only two time 2020 winner in the field, appears to be the one to beat.
Over at the Northfield, the talented Yanks Dugout, who is 6 for 6 this year, will kick off the night in the first race, first division of The Ohio Sire Stakes.
The second division is race: 3. Action Uncle, who won his only start this year in a strong 1:53.4, appears the one to beat in that one.
The series continues in race: 5 where Haggard, who is 3 for 4 this year and draws the rail, will be tough to down. The series concludes in race: 9, where 9 will line up on the gate is a contentious field.
Moving over to New Jersey, the Meadowlands has a 13 race card on tap. Race: 10, a preferred pace, shows two strong win candidates in Tookadiveoffdipper, who is 4 for 8 this year, and Backstreet Shadow, who paced a 1:48.1 mile recently.

T20 World Cup: Team India with a weak bowling unit.
October 16, 2022 by Sunil Tiwari
Team India T20 World Cup 2022: Team India is ready for T20 World Cup 2022. But with key bowlers sidelined due to injury, there is a chance of impacting the wins.
T20 World Cup 2022 Team India
India T20 World Cup 2022 is ready. Stars like fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah (back injury), Deepak Chahar (hip problem) and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja (knee surgery) have missed the tournament. Captain Rohit Sharma continues to express concern as Team India players miss out on the prestigious tournament due to injuries. However, now Team India will enter the ring without them. There are reports that there is a chance of damage to Team India's success as they are going to play without superstars in the crucial bowling department.
It is known that Bumrah is the captain's favorite player for Mumbai Indians in T20, ODI, Test or Indian Premier League. Bumrah's importance cannot be underestimated. The Indian team will enter the T20 World Cup without Bumrah. Without the injured Jasprit Bumrah, this match could be a challenge for India. Bumrah's injury left the selectors with very little time when India were in the final stages of their preparations for the T20 World Cup.
Experienced fast bowler Mohammad Shami, who replaced Bumrah, got a great opportunity to show his style. Meanwhile, one of India's top all-rounders, Ravindra Jadeja, was also ruled out due to a knee injury. There is no doubt that the absence of two key players will cripple the Indian bowling unit. However Suryakumar Yadav's emergence as one of the best T20 batsmen in the world has been somewhat of a distraction.
Bumrah's reserve in the 15-man squad, front-runner Deepak Chahar was recently ruled out due to injury. However, Watson believes that due to Bumrah's absence, India has lost its chances of claiming a second T20 World Cup.

Former skipper Virat Kohli is likely to have some rematch as he regained his form in the recently concluded Asia Cup. He scored a century against Afghanistan and impressed with excellent performances in the T20 series against Australia and South Africa. With this, the former suggest that India should change its strategies and focus more on batting instead of relying on a weak bowling unit. They say that if the batting unit performs well, no matter how big the score, it will not become easy.
Just a week away from us #T20WorldCup opener! 🙌

Bhuvneshwar Kumar's bowling in the death overs is under criticism. Experts are questioning the logic of taking three spinners Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal and Akshar Patel. And it remains to be seen what kind of strategy Team India will enter the field of battle.
Indian team to participate in T20 World Cup 2022:
India: Rohit Sharma (captain), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Akshar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh.
Standby Players: Mohammed Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi, Deepak Chahar.

Artificial lake poses threat to locals in Hunza
Mock exercises being carried out to train locals in meeting a disaster
By Shabbir Mir
GILGIT: Authorities in Gilgit-Baltistan have started training locals to avert a looming disaster in Hunza valley as Shisper Glacier surge and subsequent creation of an artificial lake has posed serious threats to the communities living downstream.
The glacier fell apart and blocked the upstream canal of the Hasanabad Valley in Hunza, thus forming the artificial lake like the one formed in Attabad Valley in 2010.
An assessment report prepared by the Gilgit-Baltistan Disaster Management Authority (G-BDMA) warned that the lake might burst any time and cause damage to the local people, and infrastructure situated downstream.
According to sources, the possible lake burst can submerge a portion of Karakoram Highway, a bridge, houses, as well as large tracts of fertile land.
Around 50 homes are located where the artificial lake has been formed.
"Mock exercises are being carried out with the locals to train them to face any emergency situation," Commissioner Gilgit Kamal Khan told The Express Tribune on Thursday.
Khan, who visited the site along with force commander and region's chief secretary, said safe routes for evacuation of communities have been identified such that they could escape the area safely in case of an emergency.
The G-BDMA, AKAH and Al-Khidmat Foundation, meanwhile, have topped up their stocks of food and other useful items.
G-BDMA Director General Farid Ahmad said the protective work to safeguard public and private properties is under way, and an amount of more than Rs30 million had already been released to departments concerned in this regard.
On the directives of chief secretary, he added, officials in the disaster management authority have been asked to list the houses and means of livelihood at stake.
Addressing the community at Hassanabad, the chief secretary unveiled a contingency plan under which 40,000 wheat bags, besides medicines have also been arranged to meet a disaster.

Q: C++ Project Layout seems incorrect, compiler can't find implementation files I'm writing a C++ Package for later use using Code::Blocks.
The project structure looks like this:
cNormal\
    cNormal.cdp
    src\
        main.cpp            # for testing purpose
        cnormal_defs.h      # important compiler definitions
        cnormal_storage.h   # includes all .h files from "./storage"
        storage\
            cnarray.h
            cnarray.cpp
            cnstack.h
            cnstack.cpp
    bin\
    obj\

The cnormal_storage.h:
// cnormal_storage.h
// *****************************************************************
// Includes all necessary headers for the cNormal storage subpackge.
//

#ifndef _cNORMAL_STORAGE_H_
#define _cNORMAL_STORAGE_H_

    #include "storage/cnarray.h"
    #include "storage/cnstack.h"

#endif // _cNORMAL_STORAGE_H_

To test the classes, i create a main-function in main.cpp.
// main.cpp
// *****************************************************************
// The main-file.
//
#include <iostream>
#include "cnormal_storage.h"

using namespace std;

int main() {
    cnArry<int> arr(10);
    arr[9] = 999;
    arr[0] = 0;
    cout << arr[9] << endl;
    cout << arr.getLength();
}

But the compiler (gcc) gives me undefined reference to ... errors about cnArray.
Now, the cnarray.cpp includes cnarray.h (as it is the implementation file), so using
#include "storage/cnarray.cpp" works just fine.
It seems like the compiler can't find the implementation of cnarray.h which is located in cnarray.cpp.
I assume it's because of the folder-structure, can you tell me how I can fix this ?
Even adding src\storage to the include directives does not fix it. (And I also don't want to add it to the include-paths as this would be very unhandy for a package.)

A: Can you post the compilation command that you use?
Seems like you are compiling only main.cpp and not compiling (and thus linking) the other .cpp files.

A: I could spot the error now, cnArray.h declared a template class and template classes cannot be implmented in another file than they are declared, because the compiler must know about the implementation when compiling, not when linking.
I have found a workaround on the internet to #include the implementation in the headerfile, but exclude the implementation file from compiling.
This works just fine now.
Cheers

Salewa and Dynafit North America, the wholly owned subsidiary of Salewa International, announced as a huge success their cross-town move into a new headquarters building.
Boulder, CO (October 2011) – Salewa and Dynafit North America, the wholly owned subsidiary of Salewa International, announced as a huge success their cross-town move into a new headquarters building. Salewa's new address is 1711 15th Street, 2nd Floor, Boulder, CO 80302. The office was previously located at 4730 Walnut Street #200, Boulder, CO 80301.
"Our North American business has grown 500+% since 2007, so growing the size of our workspace by 150+% was clearly necessary. Our new headquarters not only accommodates our rapid expansion with state-of-the-art technology and brand showcases, it also provides an environment to support and further grow the unique-and-focused culture around our brands" said Chris Sword, President of Salewa North America.
The North American subsidiary was established in 2007, and has since scaled up the team and the support structure rapidly to accommodate and accelerate the high growth of the Dynafit and Salewa brands, along with the recent acquisition of the Pomoca brand. The new office is located near the heart of bustling downtown Boulder – A "stones throw" away from Boulder Creek, the central Boulder bike path, local climbing gyms, as well as all the natural rock and mountain access that Boulder has to offer.
The design of the new office space reflects Salewa and Dynafit's collaborative culture as part of its commitment to provide excellent client service. The new office features an open floor plan that brings in natural light to enhance the feeling of spaciousness in the overall layout. The space includes numerous internal and external teaming areas, including wireless LAN, dedicated showrooms boardrooms for client meetings, and a full-scale warranty/repair/demo gear facility.
The North American headquarters is the wholly owned subsidiary of Salewa International, based in Bolzano, Italy. Salewa International is a family-owned Italian-based business with operations around the world. The North American business runs the USA/Canada sales, operations, marketing, distribution, and service for the premier alpine brand Salewa (based in Bolzano, Italy), and three of the world's preeminent backcountry ski brands, Dynafit and silvretta (based in Munich, Germany), and Pomoca (based in Aubonne, Switzerland).


There was a time when a newly-purchased electronic device would come with a comprehensive user-manual. Back then, there are people who would actually read these manuals to get to know their device really well. Sadly, those days are now gone.
As technology progressed, so did its user interface. Now, devices such as computers and smart phones are so user-friendly that the comprehensive user manuals have been deemed practically unnecessary. Manufacturers eventually figured that printing, binding, and including these user manuals have become counter-productive, since most consumers do not read them anymore.
User manuals has now been replaced with a quick start guide for all electronic device. And since the internet is readily accessible to almost everyone, companies have been uploaded to companies' online support page should anyone need to access them.
Although there were apparent benefits of transitioning to a digital user manual format, it also has its drawbacks. People nowadays have become less familiar with their devices' features and specs, and customer tech support has been having queries that a simple user manual could have easily answered. It basically made people lazier in familiarizing themselves with their devices.
Where do we find these manuals now?
Dell, Acer, Samsung, and Asus manuals are readily downloadable in their respective websites in pdf form. Anyone can just visit their website and request for links to download user manuals of specific models.
Another way is just by searching for specific manuals in Google. Typing in the specific brand and model and including keywords like "user manual" would result to links directing to you to pages where you can download them.
Now you know, avoid long waits in company tech supports by checking these readily available user manuals first the next time you have questions or concerns about a device's features or performance.

Galter Library Film Project Preserves Medical History
by Nora Dunne
A still from one of the newly digitized films shows Dr. McNealy demonstrating how to repair an inguinal hernia
A gift from the family of Raymond McNealy, MD, a leading surgeon in the first half of the 20th century and chief of Surgery at Wesley Memorial Hospital (a predecessor to Northwestern Memorial Hospital), has enabled the Galter Health Sciences Library & Learning Center to restore teaching films that show the evolution of surgical techniques — and Northwestern's early role in the use of film in medical education.
With the McNealys' grant, Galter Library was able to digitize films spanning from 1942 to 1953. They show McNealy demonstrating a cardiotomy to treat a bullet wound to the right ventricle, as well as how to repair hernias, remove the spleen, and more.
The McNealys' early investment in the surgical films boosted Galter Library's
successful application for additional funding to digitize its collection of
medical education on film from 1929-1959. Galter Library received a grant for that project through the Council on Library and Information Resources Recordings at Risk program, which is funded by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
"My hope is that these films, and those with other physicians, will serve as both a record and an encouragement for physicians and historians," shared Roderick McNealy, McNealy's son. "From a purely selfish perspective, these films make it possible to see my father 'live' again. From a professional perspective, it would be fascinating for current physicians and students to compare medical techniques and thinking over the years. I like to think that this is, in fact, early 'virtual' training."
McNealy speaks at the dedication of Wesley Memorial Hospital in 1941. The hospital was located at 250 East Superior Street, the site of Prentice Women's Hospital today.
"Through the McNealys' gift and the Recordings at Risk program, we are now able to preserve and openly share this unique aspect of Northwestern's history as a hub of educational innovation," said Kristi Holmes, PhD, director of Galter Library and professor of Preventive Medicine and of Medical Education.
"Galter's collection of 16mm films, once digitized, will be one of the very few medical motion picture collections available online and will offer scholars a rare look at medical filmmaking, educational film, medical imagery, midcentury medical education, and more," shared Katie Lattal, special collections librarian at Galter Library.

30 Acres of Sunflowers Are Peaking Now at a Maryland Wildlife Habitat
Written by Sherri Dalphonse
| Published on July 20, 2017

Need a diversion this weekend to take your mind off stifling heat and humidity? Why not enjoy the fruits of that summer sun?
At the McKee-Beshers Wildlife Management Area in Poolesville, Maryland, about an hour drive from DC, 30 acres (yes, 30!) of sunflowers are starting to peak. According to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the sunflowers are spread out over nine fields—and some of those fields will be in bloom this weekend, while others should reach peak next weekend, July 29-30. Sunflowers typically last for two weeks. For the latest update on peak dates, click here.
The sunflowers are planted there because the seeds feed the wildlife, particularly Mourning Doves. (So, please, no picking the flowers.) This is a wildlife area, not a park, so there are no restrooms or other facilities. What is there is a photographer's and artist's dream—and the area is typically very popular over these two weeks.
Photo by Jane Godfrey.
McKee-Beshers is on River Road in western Montgomery County, and the C&O Canal and towpath run along its edge, for those interested in biking or hiking. Visitors are advised to wear long pants and hiking shoes to protect against poison ivy, ticks, and the sun.
If you want another diversion after your fill of flowers, head four miles down the road to scenic Rocklands Farm, a winery and market where you can taste wines and buy fresh meats and eggs. Pizza Brama, a mobile wood-fired pizza oven on site Saturdays and Sundays, turns out tasty Neapolitan pies to order. Also nearby is Homestead Farm, a pick-your-own spot where blackberries are currently ripe for the plucking.

Some parents find it hard to accept that their child is homosexual and it can take a while for them to come to terms with it, if they ever do. So, it is not strange for twitter user @cynnerr to expect her mother to flare up when she told her that she was bisexual. But she got the surprise of her life!
In a series of tweets, @cynnerr shared how she revealed her sexuality to her mother.


Multicenter, single arm trial studying 2,009 patients with significant bleeding risks at over 110 global sites. 67% patients were elderly patients with age >= 75 years. Primary Endpoint will be collected from 1,484 patients eligible to discontinue their DAPT at 3-months.
This data is very encouraging for this complex patient group with significant bleeding risk and we look forward to 15-month primary endpoint results to be reported in late 2019.

Agona Nkum, (C/R), April 14, GNA- Mrs Efuah Frimpong, Central Regional Best Farmer for 1996, has commended drivers plying the Swedru-Asikuma road for their continuous services despite the deplorable state of the road.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency in an interview at Agona Nkum on Wednesday, Mrs Frimpomg regretted that the road had been in a bad state for more than four years now.
She, therefore, called on government to expedite action on plans already put in place to repair the road to facilitate economic activities in the area.
The Regional Best Farmer regretted due to the bad nature of the road, farm produce get rotten.
She appealed to the people to initiate projects for government to support them and said government alone could not provide all their developmental needs.

Q: Create function to use DatePickerDialog and TimePickerDiaglog to catch user input date time I am trying to write a function to capture user input Date and time and store in a string value. I successfully create DatePickerDialog but for TimePickerDialog. I get the error "can not resolve constructor..." (although using the same code as DatePickerDialog. Any help is much appreciate. Thanks
Here is my function code
public void showDatePicker(View view) {
        final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
        int mYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        int mMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        int mDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

        int mHour = c.get(Calendar.HOUR);
        int mMinute = c.get(Calendar.MINUTE);

        final TextView selectDate = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.selectDate);

        DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(DateTimePicker.this, new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
            @Override
            public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
                // dd.MM.yyyy
                selectDate.setText(dayOfMonth + "." + (monthOfYear + 1) + "." + year);
            }
        }, mYear, mMonth, mDay);
        datePickerDialog.show();

        TimePickerDialog timePickerDialog = new TimePickerDialog(DateTimePicker.this, new TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener() {
            @Override
            public void onTimeSet(android.widget.TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int minute) {
                selectDate.append(hourOfDay + "." +minute);
            }
        },mHour,mMinute);
        timePickerDialog.show();
}

And One more question is how to convert string $selectDate to Timestamp and store to remote MySQL database?

A: As per the Timepicker dialog documentation:
Public Constructors
TimePickerDialog(Context context, TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener listener, int hourOfDay, int minute, boolean is24HourView)

Creates a new time picker dialog.
TimePickerDialog(Context context, int themeResId, TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener listener, int hourOfDay, int minute, boolean is24HourView)

Creates a new time picker dialog with the specified theme.
So, please follow this and you need another parameter of type boolean to your TimePickerDialog object creation.
e.g,
TimePickerDialog timePickerDialog = new TimePickerDialog(DateTimePicker.this, new TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener() {
            @Override
            public void onTimeSet(android.widget.TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int minute) {
                selectDate.append(hourOfDay + "." +minute);
            }
        },mHour,mMinute,false);

New York Court Issues Opinion Siding With Project Veritas Against New York Times
(Photo by MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty Images)
Dylan Housman Healthcare Reporter
The New York Supreme Court issued an opinion Friday that The New York Times improperly published privileged legal documents belonging to Project Veritas.
Project Veritas is in the midst of a suit against the NYT for defamation, and the paper published a story last month containing internal legal memos in which Project Veritas employees and attorneys discussed the outfit's journalistic tactics. Project Veritas had argued that the NYT published the documents to harm their opponents in the ongoing litigation.
Christmas came early for our @dhillonlaw clients #projectveritas #jamesokeefe today! NY Trial court issued devastating opinion ruling that the @nytimes improperly obtained and published its litigation adversary's non-waived privileged communications: pic.twitter.com/fdgxWiEjdM
— Harmeet K. Dhillon (@pnjaban) December 24, 2021
In November, a judge ruled that the NYT can no longer publish pieces containing internal communications of Project Veritas while the two are engaged in litigation. In Friday's opinion, Justice Charles Wood wrote that the NYT gathered the Veritas communications through "irregular" means: "The court finds that Project Veritas has met its burden of showing that the subject memoranda were obtained by irregular means, if not both irregular and improper means."
"Like the attorney-client privilege, the First Amendment is vital to our republic, but also has limits," the opinion continued. "'For even though the broad sweep of the First Amendment seems to prohibit all restraints on free expression, this Court has observed that freedom of speech does not comprehend the right to speak on any subject at any time.'" (RELATED: Judge Orders FBI To Halt 'Extraction' From James O'Keefe's Phone Amid Leaks To NYT)
After Project Veritas employees were raided by the FBI for its involvement in a case in which they obtained an old diary belonging to Ashley Biden, the New York Times was the first outlet to be aware of the raid and contact Veritas founder James O'Keefe for comment. Project Veritas has since alleged that there is a leak within the FBI or the Department of Justice to the NYT.
"The New York Times has long forgotten the meaning of the journalism it claims to espouse, and has instead become a vehicle for the prosecution of a partisan political agenda. Today's ruling affirms that the New York Times' behavior was irregular and outside the boundaries of law," Project Veritas attorney Libby Locke told the Daily Caller. "The Court's thoughtful and well researched opinion is a victory for the First Amendment for all journalists and affirms the sanctity of the attorney-client relationship."
O'Keefe blasted the NYT in a statement to the Daily Caller: "The New York Times has doxed our sources, published our private attorney-client communications, and, after losing a Motion to Dismiss in which the New York Supreme Court said the terms 'disinformation' and 'deceptive' certainly applied to the Times' reporting practices as to Project Veritas, was forced to admit they lied about the status of Minnesota law in an article that remains uncorrected to this day. The Times is so blinded by its hatred of Project Veritas that everything it does results in a self-inflicted wound."
"The NYT editorial board characterized this as 'dangerous.' What's dangerous is printing the other side's lawyer memos in an ongoing legal dispute," he continued. "What's 'dangerous' is the NYT acting as an ombudsman for the Department of Justice when the FBI raids my journalists' homes and seizes our reporter notes. What's 'dangerous' is the NYT attacking judges personally each time we win, an act that demonstrates they think they're above the law."

The Weasleys Detail That Made No Sense In Harry Potter
By Corey Hoffmeyer/April 29, 2022 1:33 pm EST
The "Harry Potter" franchise has enjoyed immense success since the first film, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone," was released in 2001. The Wizarding World franchise (which includes the "Fantastic Beasts" movies) has grossed nearly $9.5 billion at the worldwide box office (via The Numbers). Of course, the "Fantastic Beasts" films have been sort of disappointing when it comes to this, especially the latest film, "Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore," and the franchise as a whole has been mired in controversy thanks to some of its creator's remarks regarding transgender people.
Regardless, the Wizarding World franchise doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Still, given its popularity and massively complex world, some fans have seen fit to deep dive into certain elements that they believe just don't make sense. This is nothing new for popular franchises, of course, but it seems to be especially true for "Harry Potter." With that in mind, there's one detail about the Weasley family that just doesn't quite add up in the eyes of some fans.
The Weasley family should not be as poor as they are
On a Reddit post, u/OutOfStamina pointed out that it made no sense for the Weasley family to be as poor as they are, especially given the way magic works in that particular world. With magic, wizards and witches should be able to sell goods and commodities quite easily, especially to Muggles. In fact, in a world of magic, why does a currency system exist at all? Redditor u/Vanacan, however, pointed out that due to skill levels when it comes to magic, having a currency system makes sense because not every witch or wizard is going to have the same skill with the same type of magic.
However, other users were still confused about why the wizarding world was capitalistic at all, given that it exists in a world without scarcity of goods or the requirement of labor needed to produce said goods. If one can use magic to produce, or take steps toward producing, anything one needs, what sense does money make? To that end, what sense does it make for the Weasley family to be poor? This is especially true when their skill level is taken into consideration. The members of the Weasley family have been shown to be above-average witches and wizards in both the books and the movies. For some fans, this seems like one of those details where the more you think about it, the less sense it makes.

I believe it's been mentioned on Twitter that the former site of Lane Field is being redeveloped. Lankford and Associates are leading the effort, which should culminate in 800+ additional hotel rooms downtown. You can read more about the effort here.
But we're baseball fans first, not members of the Chamber of Commerce, and Lane Field holds some nostalgic magic. It's where the PCL Padres played for 22 years, and where Ted Williams started his professional career. Because of that, in 2003 the local SABR chapter had a marker placed commemorating the ballpark at the corner of Pacific Highway and Broadway.
With the redevelopment there was concern that the marker would be removed, lost, or buried in a location it could not be seen by the public. Thankfully that will not the case. After the jump, some photos of the new Lane Field memorial.
Home Plate Statue, commemorating both the Field and Ted Williams.
A better shot of the park. You can see where the original plaque will rest in the foreground.
First Base/Right Field line. That aqua square approximates where first base was.
Pitchers "mound". There won't be an actual mound there, making this more artistic than functional.
I suspect there will be a dedication ceremony one the park is fully built, however I have no specific details on when that will happen. I also assume the original plaque will remain in the vicinity of Pacific Highway and Broadway, but I could be wrong. Tom Larwin of our local SABR chapter was kind enough to share the photos, and I thought you might enjoy them as well.


Chicago is ready for her close-up!
After documenting a recent nature-filled walk in Wyoming with husband Kanye West and their two eldest children — daughter North, 4½, and son Saint, 2 — Kim Kardashian West shone the spotlight on her 4-month-old daughter.
The reality star shared a solo shot of her youngest child, born Jan. 15, on Instagram Tuesday.
"My baby Chi ?," she captioned the sweet and simple post of her little girl laying on a blanket.
Chicago is quickly becoming a star of her mom's social media accounts, from family photos to mother-daughter selfies with fun Snapchat filters.
However, that hasn't made her rule out adding a fourth child into the mix, she revealed during an appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan this month.
The KKW Beauty mogul, 37, also spoke about how North and Saint are adapting to their new sibling during a recent visit to The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
"He loves his little sister. He's so sweet with her. I always have to watch out for him — he smothers her, and he has this really big hair so he just jumps in her crib," she said of her son.
As for North? "She's better than she was with Saint," Kardashian West shares of how her oldest child is taking to being a big sister for a second time.
Did Kim Kardashian Post a Semi-Relatable Instagram Caption?

Entry from March 26, 2016
"You can't win. You can't break even. You can't quit the game" (Ginsberg's Theorem)
The Laws of Thermodynamics were translated into everyday English in Astounding Science Fiction in November 1953:
"You can't win." (The Law of Conservation of Energy.)
"You can't even break even." (Second Law of Thermodynamics.)
Astounding Science Fiction published three laws in December 1956:
1. You can't win.
2. You can't even break even.
3. Furthermore, you can't get out of the game!
American Scientist cited these laws in 1964:
First law: You can't win, you can only break even.
Second law: You can break even only at the absolute zero.
Third law: You cannot reach the absolute zero.
Three laws were cited in Business Week in 1970:
2. You can't break even.
3. You can't even get out of the game.
The laws ere dubbed "Ginsberg's Theorem" by at least 1974, but American poet Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) has nothing to do with the laws. "Freeman's Commentary on Ginsberg's theorem" also has been cited in print since at least 1974 and describes capitalism, socialism and mysticism. The blog Freeman's Commentary explained the origin of the term in 2006.
Wikipedia: Ginsberg's theorem
Ginsberg's theorem is a parody of the laws of thermodynamics in terms of a person playing a game. The quote is attributed to the poet Allen Ginsberg.
It is possible that the quote originates as a slight misstatement of the opening lines of "You Can't Win," by Charlie Smalls, as Smalls composed the song in 1974, earlier than any recorded attribution to Ginsberg.
Theorem
The "theorem" is given as a restatement of the first, second, and third laws of thermodynamics:
1. You can't win. (restatement of first law of thermodynamics)
2. You can't break even. (restatement of second law of thermodynamics)
3. You can't even get out of the game. (restatement of third law of thermodynamics)
It is sometimes stated as a general adage without specific reference to the laws of thermodynamics.
Wikiquote: Thermodynamics
Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that studies the movement of energy and how energy instills movement. More precisely, it studies the effects of changes in temperature, pressure, and volume on physical systems at the macroscopic scale by analyzing the collective motion of their particles using statistics. 19th century physicists defined three Laws of thermodynamics to sum up the basic principles of the subject; in the 20th century, an unofficial "zeroth law" was added.
Zeroth: You must play the game.
First: You can't win.
Second: You can't break even.
Third: You can't quit the game.
. A common scientific joke expressing the four laws, as stated by C. P. Snow. Quoted in Mahon, Tom (2011). Reconnecting.calm.
Wikipedia: You Can't Win (song)
"You Can't Win" is an R&B, pop and soul song performed by American recording artist Michael Jackson, who played Scarecrow in the 1978 musical film The Wiz, an urbanized retelling of L. Frank Baum'sThe Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The movie featured an entirely African American cast and was based on the 1975 Broadway musical The Wiz.
In 1982, part 2 of the song, in which Michael Jackson repeatedly sings "Can't get outta the game", was vocally overdubbed and retitled "Can't Get Outta the Rain"; it became the B-side of the first single of his landmark album Thriller: "The Girl Is Mine".

It has been reported that in a recent examination paper a student stated the laws of thermodynamics as follows:

1st. You can't win. (Conservation of Energy.)
2nd. You can't even break even! (Law of Increasing Entropy)

R. L. SEIDEN sent along the following, after reading my piece on the laws which rule all organizations:
"Thursday's article mentioned the Constitution, Hammurabi's Code and the laws of thermodynamics.
"Hammurabi's Code? Completely unfamiliar. But the laws of thermodynamics—as an engineer, I think of three, perhaps different from yours. They are as follows:
"3. You can't get out of the game."
15 November 1973, Billings (MT) Gazette, "Our biggest energy waste" by Ray Howard, pg. 6, col. 5:
According to the UOP scientists, there are two fundamental laws of thermodynamics which apply to energy conversions. The first law of the thermodynamics is: You can't win. The second law of thermodynamics is: You can't even break even.

10 November 1978, Oakland (CA) Post, "On Location" by Vic Partipilo, pg. 4:
When the Scarecrow makes his first appearance in "The Wiz," he is watching over a tiny garden planted with a few ears of corn on a garbage-heaped slum lot.

26 July 1979, Ocala (FL) Star-Banner, "Ginsberg's Theorem Haunting Horsemen" by Bernie Dickman, pg. 2C, col. 3:
This is a story which illustrates the relative merits of GInsberg's Theorem, a corollary of the famous Murphy's Law.
In case you didn't know Murphy's Law, it's simple. If anything can go wrong in a given situation, it probably will. Ginsberg went a little further. He said: a) you can't win, b) you can't break even, c) you can't even quit the game.

Ginsberg's Theorem:
3. You can't even quit the game.
Freeman's Commentary on Ginsberg's theorem:
Every major philosophy that attempts to make life seem meaningful is based on the negation of one part of Ginsberg's Theorem. To wit:
1. Capitalism is based on the assumption that you can win.
2. Socialism is based on the assumption that you can break even.
3. Mysticism is based on the assumption that you can quit the game.

Ah, but you've forgotten the most important part:
Freeman's Commentary
Posted by hfreeman under Blogroll, computer history, murphology
Though I'm unsure of who wrote Ginsberg's Theorem, I happen to know quite a bit about how Freeman's Commentary came to be. In the mid 1970's I was working at the Nasa Ames Research Center in Mountain View CA as what today would be called a Systems Administrator for the ILLIAC-IV project, one of the first few sites on the ARPAnet. Somewhere on the net I found a collection of "laws," which included Murphy's Law, Ginsberg's Theorem, and many others.
Arthur Bloch, who I knew from UC Santa Cruz, included some of these laws, as well as many new ones, in his 1974 book, Murphy's Law and Other Reasons Things Go Wrong (The original material from his book is present in many of the compilations on the Web.) Freeman's Commentary first appeared in this book. As far as I can recall, it was something I said in a conversation with Arthur. Thirty years later, it seems like a good name for my blog.
