What We Loved This Week, Dec. 4 – 10
The "Forgotten Class" Of Blue Collar Ohio

Matt Eich has been photographing the white, blue-collar workers of rural Ohio — what is now known as the "forgotten class" — for more than a decade, capturing the drug abuse, poverty, and listlessness that defines these communities.
"Long before Trump was a player on the political scene, long before he was a Republican, these people existed and these problems existed," Eich said. "The anger is overpowering. I knew what was going on, and I'm still surprised. I should have listened to the pictures." Even with his deep understanding of the area, Eich said, he was still unprepared for the way that its fury would surround this recent election.

Harrowing Images Of New York During The Great Depression
FPG/Hulton Archive/Getty Images
As the New York Tenement Museum wrote of the Great Depression, "By 1932, half of New York's manufacturing plants were closed, one in every three New Yorkers was unemployed, and roughly 1.6 million were on some form of relief. The city was unprepared to deal with this crisis."
Although New York City eventually find a way out of the crisis, these heartbreaking photos reveal America's largest city in the throes of the worst economic crisis the country had ever faced.

When in pain or discomfort, many of us often take to seeking out salvation in ways that feel good and are familiar to us. One of the most common ways is food. We inhale comfort food to keep ourselves satisfied, as momentary, and often, unhealthy as it is. Those cookies, chips, and slices of pizza didn't know what was coming for them. If we have to be in pain, might as well enjoy something, right? But wait, what if you knew that there are foods that you can consume that not only taste great but ALSO help with your pain? How's that for some food for thought? Take a look below at some great pain fighting foods that will have you managing your discomfort happily.
These delicious little berries pack a greater punch than it seems, and will help knock that pain away! If you're suffering from arthritis or muscle pain, 45 of these little guys will have you seeing better days. A compound found in cherries called anthocyanins, are powerful antioxidants that help lower pain levels. Working to do two jobs at once, this compound blocks inflammation and simultaneously blocks pain enzymes, a similar effect of ibuprofen. Eating a bowlful for breakfast or guzzling down 12 ounces of cherry juice (ensure that is has no additives) will have you feeling quite merry!
Ginger is quickly becoming popular and is making a grand appearance in juice recipes. This spicy root has been used for ages in traditional natural medicines and is known best as a stomach healer, to help keep you warm, and soothe a sore throat. It can also help with migraines, sore muscle and arthritis. Having ¼ of a teaspoon daily will help soothe inflamed muscles, working to relieve you of the aforementioned pains. You can make tea, add it to smoothies and juice, grate it into stir-fries, or even add it to desserts!
Fish with low mercury counts are fantastic for pain relief. Salmon, Herring, and Sardines are great to relieve back and neck pain, and sore joints. Having just two to three 3-ounce servings weekly will help boost your omega-3 fatty acid count, something that is great for your blood. Back pain is often caused by low blood flow to the spinal disks, where they start to lose their oxygen and nutrients, causing degeneration. Fish oil is super beneficial for cardiovascular protection and to keep inflammation down in the body. If you don't eat fish, supplements can help you gain that essential omega-3 that's needed. We often overlook fish as a meal, however consumption will keep your blood cells happily swimming upstream.
Another traditional spice, turmeric has been slowly making its way into the limelight. Consuming 1 tablespoon daily will help in ridding your body of achy joint pain and colitis (inflamed colon). Ayurvedic medicine swears by this spice, which both relives pain and speeds up digestion. A property found in the spice called curcumin helps protect the body from tissue destruction and joint inflammation, as well as preserving good nerve cell production. Use it in curries, or sprinkle it on salads, rice, cooked grains, and soups. It's best used along with black pepper as an agent in black pepper helps bring out the curcumin.
Looks like you have some grocery shopping to do! Most of these foods are available in regular grocery stores and are easy to incorporate into your diet. Contact us for an appointment, consultation, or questions. Happy cooking!

A total of 29 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) who are partners of Olsabara, Komunitas Tangan Diatas (TDA), and a companion of Tangguh UKM, get halal certification from the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI) of East Kalimantan.
The halal certificate was obtained after the SMEs packaged food received training from the MUI at Wisma Rayah, some time ago. After the training, the MUI immediately verified the field, looking at the production processes of SMEs. After everything is free of material containing illicit elements, MUI gives a halal label to the packaging of these UKM actors.
Head of the East Kutai Cooperative and UKM Office, Drs Husaini MSi, expressed his gratitude to KPC for its support for SMEs in East Kutai. "Thank you to KPC, who never wants to be satisfied with what already exists, but continues to innovate so that our SMEs are able to compete with other regions," Husaini said.
Head of LPPOM MUI of East Kalimantan Indonesian, H Sumarsongko, said, halal certification is an absolute requirement for food products circulating in the community. "Halal certification is now an absolute requirement for products, especially food circulating in the community. This is to protect consumers from material that contains haram. Thank you to KPC, so that a number of UKM were facilitated to get halal certification, "Sumarsongko said.

7 things you didn't know about Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade
By Natalie Brumfield | January 19, 2016 , 08:20am
Perhaps you haven't heard much regarding Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade. If you're like me, only eight years ago did I know that the famous leading plaintiff in the case that legalized abortion in the United States is actually a woman by the name of Norma McCorvey. "Jane Roe" was her given pseudonym for the case.
On September 13, 2008, I attended an Alabama Citizens for Life banquet in Montgomery, Alabama. There I would hear Norma McCorvey's story for the very first time. I hung on every word as she told us the truth about her part in the Supreme Court ruling and other facts like the following…
1. She never had an abortion.
Norma McCorvey, the plaintiff in the case that legalized abortion for women, has confessed in innumerable interviews and speaking events that she never had an abortion and that her pregnancy was not a product of rape as she had claimed in the case. The then mother of two gave her third child the gift of adoption. She was represented in the case as a woman seeking a legal abortion of her unborn baby. In a 1997 CNN interview, it was explained that:
"McCorvey had made one trip to an illegal abortion clinic in Dallas that had been shut down. But now, McCorvey says she wouldn't have had an abortion, anyway, because she was too far along in her pregnancy. "I can honestly say no, I wouldn't have," she said.
Norma McCorvey wrote in her first book, I Am Roe, that she in fact was not pregnant by rape like she had first said. That was a lie. She said she had invented the rape story in an attempt to make a stronger case for an abortion.
2. She asked her doctor to put her in touch with an adoptive/foster attorney. That attorney put her in touch with pro-aborts.
In an interview on May 18, 2006, they stated that after a time of being abortion minded, Norma McCorvey wanted other options:
Realizing that her child was going to be born into this world, she finally talked her physician into giving her the name of an attorney that dealt in adoptive/foster cases. This lawyer listened to Norma and then introduced her to two people who would change her life forever.
Those two women were Sarah Weddington (the attorney) and Linda Coffee (representing the plaintiffs) looking for a vulnerable pregnant woman who would sign their paperwork for the monumental case.
3. She agreed to be the leading plaintiff for "free pizza & beer."
Norma lamented in the 2006 interview with Brad Harrub, Ph.D.:
To make a long story short, I met with Sarah Weddington and Linda Coffee, and they—how do I say this, they upset me. They said, "Oh Norma, don't you realize that women drive cars? Oh Norma, don't you realize that women get to smoke in public? Oh Norma, don't you know that women get to vote?" I finally told them, "Hey look, I just came for the pizza and beer, because I was hungry." I met with them three or four times. I signed the affidavit that brought Roe v. Wade into being on March 17, 1970…
4. She never stepped foot in a courtroom.
Norma McCorvey not only never had an abortion, she never even entered a courtroom regarding this court case. She only signed an affidavit in Texas and was used as a pawn. Had she been questioned or given testimony in court proceedings, this case may not have been won at all. Dr. Harrub was surprised when he asked, "Did you ever attend courtroom sessions?" Her response stunned me. She quickly replied, "No, never."
5. She read about the legalization of abortion in the newspaper. She was never contacted after signing.
Norma explained:
I met with them (Weddington and Coffee) three or four times. I signed the affidavit that brought Roe v. Wade into being on March 17, 1970, and I found out about Roe v. Wade just like everyone else did. I read it in the newspaper.
McCorvey was unaware that the case had gone anywhere. She has described her reaction as being as surprised as anyone.
6. In 1995, Norma McCorvey declared herself pro-life.
Norma McCorvey publicly committed her life to 'serving the Lord and helping women save babies.' She accepted a new job at Operation Rescue as a computer operator and was welcomed into the pro-life community. Since that time, McCorvey published "Won By Love" in January of 2003, sharing her true story and accounts of changing her position from pro-choice to pro-life. She also made a pro life commercial (seen below) to lament her role in the case. In a 1995 Nightline interview, she explained that after working in four Dallas-area abortion centers and learning a lot more, she started having inner-conflicts with herself. From that time on, Norma has completely moved her position from "a woman's right to choose" to upholding the right to life of the preborn baby.

7. She has attempted to have the case reopened and overturned.
Norma has dedicated herself to pro-life work, starting her own ministry, "Roe No More," in 1997, while continuing to speak out against abortion and for life. In 2003, Norma "went to court in an attempt to overturn Roe v. Wade":
Her case was dismissed by the Fifth Circuit appeals court; The U.S. Supreme Court subsequently denied review. In 1998 and 2005 she testified before Congress about the injustices of abortion and the deceit underlying Roe v. Wade.
Speaking publicly on September 13, 2008, for the Alabama Citizens for Life banquet in Montgomery, Alabama, Norma stated, "My decisions were wrong and I am fighting with every breath to change what has occurred. My view has changed. I believe that God has brought me to this point to bring change once again."

Q: Particular case of velocity and acceleration in cylindrical polar coordinates I am given the following path and asked to find acceleration and velocity in cylindrical coordinates $$x(t) = \cos wt \,\,\, \,\,\, y(t) = \sin wt \,\,\,  \,\,\, z(t) = t$$
I called $\underline{r}(t) =  \cos (wt) \underline{i}+\sin( wt)\underline{j}+t\underline{k} $ the position vector and I differentiated it obtaining the following: $$\dot{\underline{r}}(t) = -w\sin(wt)\underline{i} + w\cos(wt)\underline{j}+\underline{k}$$ Then I obtained the expressions of the Cartesian coordinates in terms of the cylindrical ones, $\underline{i} = -\sin(wt)\underline{e}_\theta+\cos(wt)\underline{e}_r$  and $\underline{j} = \cos(wt)\underline{e}_\theta+\sin(wt)\underline{e}_r$ and $\underline{k} = \underline{e}_z$ , and substituted back into obtaining $$\dot{\underline{r}}(t) = w\underline{e}_\theta +\underline{e}_z$$ then by differentiating wrt $t$ and letting $\dot{\underline{e}}_\theta = -\dot{\theta}\underline{e}_r$ I get  $$\ddot{\underline{r}}(t) = -w\dot{\theta\underline{e}}_r+\dot{\underline{e}}_z$$
Is this correct and does $\dot{\underline{e}}_z$ vanishes? Cause  technically $\underline{e}_z = \underline{k}$ and it is a fixed vector, hence the derivative should be zero

Been lurking this site for several weeks and just signed up, but I am a real person. I have an N82 for my PPQ that I wish I had a Kydex shell on it instead of the nylon. I need to replace it with a Kydex holster.
Do you know if this holster would fit a PPQ M1 (aka Classic) without problem?
Nevermind, I don't think it will work for me because of the barrel length differences. Thanks, though.

Man Stabbed four out of anger
Ananya Gupta
The rage is getting intense as a guy stabbed four people to death on Wednesday. Along with four people, two others got severe injuries. The madness continued for two hours in Southern California robbing and killing people around. The guy who went rogue was from Garden Grove, he is 33-years-old and surrendered to the police along with a knife and a gun. The aim was to rob and spread fear among people in which he failed brutally.
www.apnews.com
The victims and suspect himself were Hispano. The guy was angry and frustrated from his life; his life was miserable and had no hopes left. To spread fear among people, he went to different places with the knife, and this chaos went for two hours in Santa Ana and Garden Grove. The two people he wounded are in stable condition, and they will survive.
The officials have evidence and are investigating the man in search of any other crimes that he may have done. The man is a Garden Grove resident, and he stabbed two people out of anger outside his apartment. They argued and out of rage, the man killed both of them, one of them died, and officials carried another man to the hospital in serious condition where he received his last breath. He robbed a bakery where he aimed at the owner while she was busy charging her phone. The owner of the bakery survived his chaos as according to the owner; he thought that she was a customer.
After the bakery, the man robbed an insurance office where he stabbed a 54-year-old woman, but she may survive as per the officials. The officials said that she was brave enough to fight the suspect but was unfortunate to dodge the knife. The incident was seen by an alarm company after which they called the police.

In New Stories from the Tabernacle, I explore the value of community by presenting a new archive constructed from my experience as a waitress in the The Tabernacle.
I used my time working as a waitress to observe this rich community and used the building as a artist residency to think and construct the project.
The work engages with a different form of documentary including ideas of collection and archives. I started collecting kitchen and bar tickets from a selection of usual customers, the ones that have particular habits, repetitive requests, same manners, all those people that create this special environment in Tabernacle. The final series gathers the re-photographed papers edited with text, as well as portraits of the waitressing staff and extracted conversation with customers .
The series is very personal and dear to my heart. Not only because it deals with a place I relate very much to, but also because creating an art piece from the point of vu of a waitress transposes suddenly the objects into subjects: The customer becomes the matter as well as the waitress. News Stories from the Tabernacle is also about treating New perspective, it is about communication and human relationship.

In a Word: Psychogeology
"The Walk Home" by Jack Yuen
Leslie Garrett
I cannot offer you a dictionary definition of psychogeology because the word is not in the dictionary. What I can do is tell you that the author who coined the term, Kim Stanley Robinson, wanted a word to define how we are shaped by the places where we live or have spent time. Psycho, as a prefix, refers to relating to the mind or the soul. Geology, broadly, means the substance of the Earth.
Robinson chose to use the term "geology" and refers specifically to mountains. The Sierra mountains (the focus of his most recent book, The High Sierra, a Love Story) make him feel differently than Swiss mountains, he says, inviting us, too, to notice how different places make us feel.
"I think the mountains are a space where you are taken outside of your ordinary urban mind and are thinking a little deeper — or, no, that might not be the right way to put it," he said during an interview on The Ezra Klein Show. "Things are coming together in your head in a different way."
Richard Powers, author of Bewilderment and The Overstory, described his first foray into the Smoky Mountains to Ezra Klein in a separate interview: "When I first went to the Smokies and hiked up into the old growth in the Southern Appalachians, it was like somebody threw a switch. There was some odd filter that had just been removed, and the world sounded different and smelled different. The experience was so transformative for Powers that he found himself still thinking about it a year later. "If you're still preoccupied with a place and how you felt in that place after such a long period of time after only a four-day exposure," Powers said, "that's got to tell you something."
Sounds a lot like psychogeology.
There is a particularity to psychogeology, according to Kim Stanley Robinson: "I talk about psychogeology as the trying to understand why, for instance, the Sierras feel so different than the Swiss Alps or the trans-Antarctics or the Himalayas." It is the character of these places, he posits to Klein, that coalesce into a particular feeling. … You can try to explain it, but it's more of a gestalt. And that's psychogeology."

I live near some very old mountains, the Taconics, and they are my version of the Sierras, though the tallest is only about 2500 feet. I wonder if the age of the place affects me. I know I feel like I belong there, whenever I hike and explore. I feel more alert and alive.

Q: ajax error in browser console - is not a function I do not understand why I see it an error in the browser console.
Uncaught TypeError: $.ajax is not a function - I see this message

I only found advice that it is not the correct version of the library.
But I think my version is correct.
My code

<script src="https://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-3.3.1.js"></script>
<input type="button" id="id_name_task" value="Click" />

<script type="text/javascript">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $("#id_name_task").click(function() {
      var name_task = $(this).val();
      console.log(name_task);
      $.ajax({
        type: 'GET',
        async: true,
        dataType: 'json',
        url: '/validate_data/',
        data: {
          'name_task': name_task
        },
        success: function(data) {
          if (data.is_taken) {
            alert("A task with this name already exists.");
          }

        },
      });
    });
  });
</script>

A: Looking at the code I found the following differences between jquery.js and jquery.slim.js:
In the jquery.slim.js, the following function of code are removed:

*

*jQuery.fn.extend

*jquery.fn.load

*jquery.each // Attach a bunch of functions for handling common AJAX events

*jQuery.expr.filters.animated

*ajax settings like jQuery.ajaxSettings.xhr, jQuery.ajaxPrefilter, jQuery.ajaxSetup, jQuery.ajaxPrefilter, jQuery.ajaxTransport, jQuery.ajaxSetup

*xml parsing like jQuery.parseXML,

*animation effects like jQuery.easing, jQuery.Animation, jQuery.speed

What are the differences between normal and slim package of jquery?
$.ajax is removed from jQuery slim 3.2.1

It launched the Unmanned Space Experiment Recovery System (USERS) spacecraft and the Data Relay Test Satellite (DRTS). This is the third successful launch of the H-2A; an upgrade over the H-2 rocket program which suffered a string of launch failures in the 1990s.


Laser treatments are the safe use of light to treat various skin disorders, like psoriasis and rosacea. Lasers can also treat skin tone irregularities such as vitiligo, freckles, and spider veins.
Laser resurfacing to rejuvenate skin is an exciting way to treat wrinkles. We at Park Venue Dermatology are experts in laser treatments and have state-of-the-art laser equipment. We are also highly experienced at treating all ethnic skin types with laser therapy.
Heat has also been used safely in medicine since the beginning of recorded history. Here at Park Avenue Dermatology we use heat to tighten the skin causing wrinkles, i.e. Thermage®.
Results from laser treatments vary and some procedures can only produce temporary solutions but the risks are low and the patient's recovery time is typically much shorter than the simplest surgical intervention. From subtle to dramatic, dermatologic improvements are usually immediate but can vary based upon your problem and skin type. If you are considering laser treatments, Jacksonville's Park Avenue Dermatology can explain the advantages of laser ablation and skin resurfacing.

Q: How to make cyclone slider images retina ready I'm using cyclone slider in this website: http://www.malithaisouthcenter.com/
in the settings I have an option to setup the width(which I currently set to 1600). now if I want to make the slider images retina ready, what should I do? I know I can make the images retina ready & let them downsample by browsers with this code:
.img {
    background-image: url(Retina-image-800x600-2x.png);
    background-size: 400px 300px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    display: block;
    width: 400px;
    height: 300px;
}

But the problem is, we are talking about a group of pictures, not just one image.

A: retina.js – JAVASCRIPT METHOD
a small JavaScript file which detects @2x images and displays them on retina devices. Download retina.js, and include it in your web page with the following between the tags, or alternatively, place it just before the closing tag.
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/retina.js"></script>

MEDIA QUERIES – TARGETING PIXEL RATIO AND RESOLUTION
Media Queries can be used to target retina devices in order to include high res graphics, for example:
@media

(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2),

(min-resolution: 192dpi) {

/* Retina graphics */

}

or
/* CSS for high-resolution devices */
@media only screen and (-Webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5),
only screen and (-moz-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5),
only screen and (-o-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3/2),
only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.5) {
    .icons {
    background-image: url(Retina-image-800x600-2x.png);
    background-size: 400px 300px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    display: block;
    width: 400px;
    height: 300px;
    }
}

or
In webkit-based browsers, image-set () is already supported.
.image {
background: -webkit-image-set( url('path/to/image') 1x, url('path/to/high-res-image') 2x );
}

Bill Clinton Visits DC 37 to Support Hillary Clinton in the New York Primary

By GREGORY N. HEIRES
Hundreds of activists came to DC 37 headquarters on Thursday to support Hillary Clinton in the New York Democratic presidential primary on April 19.
Former President Bill Clinton received a boisterous welcome from the crowd when he arrived at the rally to urge activists to help Hillary Clinton to win in the primary.
"You will never have a better chance to vote for a change maker in your lifetime," Clinton said. As a former senator representing New York and former U.S. secretary of state, Hillary Clinton is the most experienced and qualified candidate in the presidential race, he said.
District Council 37 Executive Director Henry Garrido recalled how as senator, Clinton worked to secure assistance from the federal government in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. Throughout her tenure as senator, DC 37 could always count on her support, Garrido said.
"No one is more prepared to be president than Hillary Clinton," said Lee Saunders, president of DC 37's parent union, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has dispatched political activists around the country to get out the vote in Democratic primary elections and caucuses.
"We know she is tenacious," Saunders said. "She never backs down in a fight."
Bill Clinton underscored his wife's commitment to public employees and the vital services they provide, and he spoke of her support of health care, Wall Street reforms, paid family leave, child care, and a plan to reduce the interest on the existing student loans and allow future students to graduate without debt.
He noted that taking into account inflation, 80 percent of workers have not received a raise since the economic crash in the late 2000s. He said Hillary Clinton is dedicated to addressing the persistent wage stagnation and growing inequality since then.
Alfredo Williams, a member of Lifeguard Supervisors Local 508, said he regards Clinton as more qualified than the other presidential candidates. "She is very capable of dealing with international affairs," he said.
Marilyn Steeps, a Clerical Associate 3, described herself as a long-time supporter of Clinton. She said she was impressed by the sincerity of Clinton, recalling that Clinton visited her church while running for senator and returned to thank the congregation after she won.
"This is part of history that is being made," Steeps said about for Clinton, who will, of course, be the first woman president in the United States if she wins the election.

Kymeta Raises $50M To Upend Satellite Antenna Business

July 9th, 2013 by Benjamin Romano
Satellite antenna maker Kymeta may be only a year old, but with a $50 million financing round and the technology backing of Intellectual Ventures, the company can hardly be called a startup.
The Redmond, WA, company—which uses patented metamaterials to make antennae that it says will beat existing technologies on size, weight, power requirements, and cost—raised the Series C funding from Osage University Partners and The Kresge Foundation, which joined existing investors Bill Gates, Lux Capital, and Liberty Global, in what president and chief operating officer Bob McCambridge describes as an oversubscribed round.
Kymeta has raised a total of $62 million since spinning out of Bellevue, WA-based Intellectual Ventures last August, and now has enough cash to operate until it begins generating commercial sales from its own branded products, which McCambridge says should occur in early 2015. It is already bringing in revenue from agreements with satellite companies such as Inmarsat, with which it is developing an antenna for delivering high-speed broadband access to jets.
Kymeta is the second stand-alone company to emerge from Intellectual Ventures, the controversial—and lucrative—effort of former Microsoft chief technology officer Nathan Myhrvold to acquire intellectual property and license it to technology companies, or sue those who violate its patents.
For the last decade, Intellectual Ventures (IV) has been amassing a metamaterials "intellectual property treasure trove," McCambridge says, primarily from Duke University, University of California San Diego, and Imperial College of London. "It's a very massive new field and one that IV was quite prescient in thinking would be very important and valuable," he says.
McCambridge offers this "non-technologist's" definition of metamaterials: "A category of synthetic materials that have properties that don't occur naturally in any organic state." For Kymeta's purposes, this means properties that "create a holographic image that can be used to acquire a satellite signal and then track it without any mechanical parts."

This quilt began as a single 16″ orphan antique block found, I don't recall where, y-e-a-r-s ago. I admired the applique workmanship and dogwood design. I always intended to create a medallion quilt showcasing this block, but had a challenging time finding coordinating fabrics. Like fashion, quilting fabric colors change all the time. This pink reminds me of the original Bayer children's aspirin color(not 'pink', not salmon… somewhere in between), the old muslin had yellowed, and the gray is also unique with undertones of brown. From time to time I would pull this block out again and look for fabrics to pair with it, and finally in 2016 I found these luscious fabrics. I am so glad to finally complete this quilt, including hanging sleeve and label, and get it photographed before year's end… my last quilt of 2016.
I'm excited to add that this quilt earned a Blur Ribbon in the 2018 Virginia Quilt Show at the State Fair in the Virginia Quilt category.
A quilted Christmas stocking for Ryker Kenneth Gauldin, made with love by this Mimi for his very first Christmas.
From the moment I first saw this Van Gogh fabric in July of 2016, I knew it would be fabulous fractured! I completed fracturing and piecing the top on November 2nd, 2016… the day Cherrywood announced their next "challenge" – a Van Gogh Challenge… so this won't be my last Van Gogh piece. 😉 By December 10th I finished thread painting and quilting it. What a cheerful piece! It makes me smile to look at it. Now, I must finish planning out my next Van Gogh quilt.
Made for the arrival of my first grand baby, may he never forget God and his Mimi love him!

Made in honor of our Hickman Hens… past, present, and future. Life in the country is grand!
Owned by Becky Lloyd and Holly Nightingale, respectively, both of Berryville, VA.
As in the quilt below, the fabulously colorful mod cat fabric became the inspiration for this playful quilt, made in the likeness of Northern Quilt's Cats on the Roof pattern. Since this pattern was no longer available, I made my own setting kittens and cats to play with loop-d-loop quilting 'yarn' on the bright blocks.

Purchased by Joyce Hunley as a gift for Mary and Jeff Arwood (and their cat, Millie) as they settle into their new home in Haymarket, VA.
I do enjoy the challenge of making modern looking quilts, however, making a traditional quilt, like this one, is comforting and "feels like home"… and there is no better place to be than home for the holidays where Christmas is the reason for the season.
It was fun to find a place for the little bit of antique fabric I'd found long ago with its rows of red snowflakes!
While some may see elements of an Indian Puzzle in this Friendship Star block, this 'Dazzling Pinwheel' was also inspired by a feature of Mosaic #14 (ca. 1938).

This quilt began with a beautiful wildflower batik fabric found this spring while on vacation in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I loved the colors and the unique design repeated throughout the fabric. Once home, I fussy-cut each focus flower and considered how I would lay them out to highlight these beautiful squares. Simple 'rails' of two coordinating fabric with some plain green squares and a border completed the design.
Owned by Artisan Trail of Virginia's Kathy Johnson of Waynesboro, Va.
From the moment I saw this fabric (Wind & Waves by Douglas Laird for Wilmington Prints) I knew it needed to be "fractured"… and I couldn't be happier with the results.
My husband has long been fascinated with lighthouses, perhaps from his time working in support of the Coast Guard. Lighthouses remind me first of my love of the ocean shores they protect, but they also seem to sing out "let your light shine"… a message I take to heart each time I create.
The inner border provides a "mat" for this "picture" quilt, and outer border's quilting stitches highlight the grain in its "wooden frame".
I rarely (if ever) have made a quilt from a "quilt kit". I might once in a while buy a "kit" for its fabric and then create my own quilt using that group of fabrics, but this quilt kit, as is, "spoke to me" when I saw it. My husband grew up in Spain and has told me so much about the country… its Tapestry "factory" in Madrid and the lovely Spanish tiles of Valencia (and elsewhere across the country). One day I hope he will take me there and share with me his fondest memories. In the mean time, I made this quilt for him from AQS's Valencia Tiles Quilt Kit using a Michael Miller Fabric Collection. I'm not sure the center fabric was intended to represent a tapestry, but I quilted it with "tiny texturing stitches" such that the birds are showcased like they might be if they'd been woven into a tapestry.
My husband just "loved" these geometric red prints when we stopped in a sweet quilt shop (Shoreline Handwerks) in Manteo in the Outer Banks of NC. (This was our first trip to the Outer Banks and, as time allows, I always like to check out the local quilt shops where ever we go.) The simple, traditional "Rail Fence" layout seemed a good place to start piecing, but once the top was 'done' it simply cried out for more. I prepared and whimsically arranged the black and white flowers, stems, and leaves until satisfied… and voila'.
Owned by Megan Clark & James Tucker of Herndon, Va.
Once upon a time the Grohs and Gauldins each moved into half of a shared duplex on Ft. Bliss in El Paso, TX. The military made them neighbors. Hearts forged close by life circumstances made these fast friends 'family'. In January of 1990, we started our first partnership quilt, and now as our boys begin to grow families of their own we again took to partnership on quilts for this next generation. These are to be quilts used daily, so we choose a simple pattern and fabrics that should always remind the recipient of their Grandma. We each pieced blocks for the tops, Nancee put the blocks together and added borders, I free motion quilted the tops (shown below before binding) and Nancee bound them.
These are the first two Baby "G" quilts, made with love and hopes we might be making more as time goes on.
Owned by Tyler and Kathryn Groh and Baby Connor (5/2016) of Boston, MA and Logan and Kate Groh and Baby Sebastian (7/2016) of PA.
We surely couldn't have imagined that of our 5 boys, 4 would be making us "Grandmas" in the same year!
These last two Baby "G" quilts are alike and were completed in October 2016.
Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's stained glass ceiling panels in the Ward Willits House, Highland Park, IL (1902).
I was first introduced to FLW when studying design in college. Trips to see his work at Taliesin West in AZ. and Falling Waters in PA. developed interest into a love of his stunningly simple lines and concepts. His designs 'of old' remain modern, even by today's standards. This is, hopefully, the first of many FLW inspired quilts to become part of my "body of work".
The gold and black fabrics in this quilt are 'scraps' of Cherrywood Hand-Dyes Fabrics remaining after making my Lion King – Circle of Life challenge quilt shown below. The suede-like characteristics of the hand-dyed fabrics were perfect used here to represent hand-blown stained glass.
While it may seem to be a paradoxical to call a quilt constructed of Civil War reproduction fabrics "Modern", the simple blocks and overall design are definitely modern.
Some quilts are meticulously pieced. Others, like this one, are simple. This quilt features mostly Civil War reproduction fabrics and a striking Star. When a friend saw it, she commented on my mitered corners saying, "You couldn't just keep it simple, could you." I guess I am always looking for how I can challenge myself, even in what generally is a simple, but stunning quilt.
This quilt was created for Cherrywood Hand-Dyed Fabric's 2016 Lion King Challenge, done in partnership with The Disney Theatrical Production Company, producers of The Lion King on Broadway.
This was, by far, the most demanding quilting concept I've ever tackled. However, bringing three unique designs together within one quilt seemed the best way to summarize the Lion King's Circle of Life story. I was artistically and technically stretched to figure out HOW to create 3-D pleated images using traditional methods and Cherrywood's beautiful hand-dyed fabrics. After creating my own designs, I sequentially pieced strips of background on which I fused and appliqued the three separate images working with only ¾" of the designs at a time.
The left perspective shows strong angular lines of powerful King Mufasa (Father). Head-on, you see Sarabi (Mother) with cub Simba under a baobab tree in front of a setting sun on the Pride Lands. The soft curved lines of the right perspective show Simba grown, ready to begin leading a pride of his own, completing the Circle of Life.
The picture's "mat" is defined by black borders and features 3-D double diamonds.
The picture's scalloped edge frame is embellished with hand-appliqued simple elements, and hand appliqued on a black background which squares the quilt. To better showcase the picture with frame concept, instead of binding, an enveloped knife edge finishes the quilt.
304 quilts entered their challenge and 138 were selected as finalists. I am truly honored this quilt numbers among them! You can find pictures of each of the 138 finalists published in the Lion King Challenge commemorative book.
It was an absolute delight to work with Cherrywood's luxurious hand-dyes fabrics and great fun to work through the designs and challenge of creating this one-of-a-kind quilt! I knew even while creating it that its unique features would require extra special handling. Upon hearing from Cherrywood that it had been selected as their "Cherrywood's Choice" Lion King Quilt and that as such it would travel with them to shows in the coming year, I was thrilled to know it will travel safely in their care.
Additionally, it was showcased along with the full Lion King Challenge finalists November 22nd, 2016 through January 3rd, 2017 at the Franklin Arts Center, Open City Gallery in Brainerd, MN.
I'm already thinking through the details of the next quilt I will make using the techniques that I created and incorporated in this quilt, and yes, I will likely, in time, be offering a class in this technique in Studio 2724.

This quilt was a lot of fun to make! I loved cutting the pieces that became these 220 colorful triangles. Throughout the process, many reminded me of the first quilt I'd made using that unique piece of fabric. I'd completed the top and quilted it and hung it on my design wall to photograph before I discovered the "cross" hidden in the overall design, and that made me love it all the more.
Owned by Linda and John Heater of Emmaus, PA, associated with Teams for Medical Missions ministry to the people of Jamaica.
Yes, I've made these before, but this set is mine.
First 2 completed in 12/2013. Last 6 completed in 1/2016.
Adapted from Anita Bradshaw's 'Swirl Heart Applique' pattern from her Garment Applique Collection.
I decided to make some Valentine Quilt cards this year… with a "label" they are all set to be mailed. What does one "do" with a Valentine Quilt Card you might be wondering (besides enjoy the hand-made heartfelt sentiment)… these could be hung on the wall or used as a table-top coaster.
Owned by Dave Hickman, my #1 Valentine… who, in advance of receipt of it, made me my own version in wood.

I wanna talk quickly about kind of how I travel. Cause some of this is about being mobile out on the streets, but some of it is also like, you know, you need to be able to get on a plane and go with gear. I showed you how I set it up, so I don't necessarily have to take it apart for you, but basically in my travel bag it's not a very complicated thing. It's a couple of lenses, we're gonna talk about lenses tomorrow, so I won't go through them. But it's like this, the one on my camera, maybe one more, it's you know a couple of batteries plus their chargers that are with me, there's this external recorder that we're gonna talk about tomorrow, but that goes in my bag, a set of lav kits, yeah, a set of lav mikes, that go in there, and we're gonna talk about sound tomorrow. I've got an eyepiece in case I wanna be zooming in closer to my viewfinder, and then I basically take my camera off of the shoulder rig. Everything here goes into my Pelican. The risky thing about this situation is that,...
in my experience, and this is very like, you know, by trial and error, and is not necessarily a hard and fast rule, but all you need is one TSA officer to disagree with you. In my experience, I was having a lot of difficulty getting through TSA when this was in my carry on. So I, in addition to it just being really heavy. So what I've done was I've started to take my camera off, everything goes in here, but my actual shoulder rig part goes in my checked luggage, because I was finding that going through TSA with this, they were giving me a little bit of a hard time. The great thing is that you're not walking around with an extra, you know, 10 pounds or so worth of stuff while you're going from place to place. The bad thing is that if your luggage is lost, there goes your like whole stabilization system, but just wanna be honest about it. All of that goes Pelican case, nice and you know easy to use. Everyone knows these are made as a carry on size, this is super durable, you know, obviously you can see it's gotten beat up and coffee spilled on it, and you know it's been used as a picnic table, clearly, as well as a bag, and they also make for great kind of apple boxes. So a common thing when shooting video is to wanna be able to like be a little bit close to the floor, not totally squatting, necessarily, or not necessarily in a height of a chair either, and I find that the Pelican for being out their shooting, also gives me a bunch of opportunities to just sit on it and shoot something at this, also being able to use your body as that kind of human tripod that I was talking about, at any time is great, I mean, this weight back here and the kind of configuration of this, does make it a less tiring option, but like it still tiring to walk around with 25 pounds of weight on your shoulder. So being able to be in a situation where I can do something like that is super helpful. I can shoot an interview this way if I wanted to, I think interviews should go on tripods, normally, but I can do this, and I have. You can also sit this thing up. This is kind of often a great height if someone's in a chair and you don't necessarily have one. oh, right over there there's an apple box. They're kind of everywhere, but the Pelican in addition to being a great way to kind of get things around, people also use backpacks and kind of you know wheelie bags and things like that, the Pelican, I feel like can double up as you know a tool that you can use in the field, which is always very helpful.

I have been waiting for a course like this. Purchasing it was a no-brainer. Taught by an accomplished professional in the field, with a strong track record of high level work, Jessica Dimmock, I feel, is exactly the type of instructor Creative Live should be giving air time to. I have watched other Videography classes on Creative Live, and this was the first one that I felt was worth purchasing due to how much info was being shared, in a very methodical, easy to follow (but not dumb downed) fashion.
This class has left me feeling very encouraged and inspired about getting into videography. Jessica has made some great work, in her short career with video, and was able to share what she learned through those experiences. She started out as a photographer and has now incorporated video into her skill set and it seems to have expanded the diversity her opportunities and has enriched what she produces and shares with the world. I look forward to doing the same thing in my own way. Thanks CL for another wonderful class.

Simultaneously broad and deep, the information Jessica covers and the way she delivers it really give you the feeling you can jump into video right away. Professionalism in every area, from prep steps to workflow in the field to clean organization and processing, inspires confidence in the value of her methods. She clearly learned most of this in the field over years of work, which means the rest of us now have a huge leg up on our first projects. Thank you so much!

\section{Introduction}
\label{sec:intro}

Through the abundant production of jets, i.e.\ collimated streams of
particles, hadron colliders essentially become \emph{jet
  laboratories}. QCD analyses of these data comprise a huge variety of
phenomena and allow, amongst others, to learn about hard QCD or
nonperturbative effects. As background the huge cross sections of jet,
photon, and weak boson production pose a problem for many searches for
new phenomena. Since hadrons are ``made of QCD'', a precise
understanding of their structure is indispensable as a linking piece
between many collision types and processes. In particular at the LHC,
which makes a huge new region of phase space accessible in energy
scale $Q$ and fractional momentum of the proton $x$, new measurements
by ATLAS and CMS~\cite{Aad:2008zzm,Chatrchyan:2008aa} provide
significant constraints on the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of
the proton and the strong coupling constant \alpsmz.

\section{Photon production}
\label{sec:photons}

The analysis of direct photons is complicated by the fact that photons
can also be produced in the transition phase from a parton shower to
measurable particles.
This so-called fragmentation component is much less understood
than the perturbatively calculable QCD Compton, $qg \rightarrow \gamma
q$, or annihilation processes, $q\bar{q} \rightarrow \gamma g$.
Despite the possibility to probe and better determine the gluon PDF,
observed discrepancies between measurement and theory for
centre-of-mass energies of 20--40\GeV lead to the abandonment of
photon data for PDF analyses.\cite{d'Enterria:2012yj} With improved
techniques requiring photons to be isolated, the fragmentation
component can be suppressed, in particular when accessing much higher
photon transverse momenta at the LHC with more fine-grained detectors
than previously possible. This suggests to re-address the comparison
of photon data to perturbative QCD and their re-integration into
global PDF fits.

section. Some tension between data and theory remains with respect to
the absolute photon rapidity as shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:pgamma}
right. The limiting factor for more precise comparisons lies with the
dominant scale uncertainty of the NLO calculations.

Within the context of Higgs boson searches (and now measurements) the
isolated photon-pair production as irreducible background to $H
\rightarrow \gamma\gamma$ is of special interest. The CDF and D0
Collaborations have published detailed studies including the full
recorded luminosity~\cite{Aaltonen:2012jd,Abazov:2013pua} and find a
significantly improved description at NNLO from
\TGNNLO~\cite{Catani:2011qz} compared to NLO\@.

    compared to predictions by theory up to NNLO\@.}
  \label{fig:digamma}

This is confirmed by ATLAS,\cite{Aad:2012tba} although some
discrepancies remain in particular in the distribution of the
azimuthal difference between the two photons as presented in
Fig.~\ref{fig:digamma} for CDF (left) and ATLAS (right).

\section{Weak boson+jet production}
\label{sec:bosonjet}

    zero or more up to seven or more jets from ATLAS at
    7\TeV.\protect\cite{Aad:2013ysa} The measurements are compared to
    various predictions including \BLACKHAT +
    \SHERPA,\protect\cite{Berger:2010vm,Berger:2010zx,Ita:2011wn,Gleisberg:2008ta}
    which provides NLO precision up to inclusive $W,Z$ plus four jet
    production.}
  \label{fig:vjets}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[tbp]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=0.42\linewidth]{sigmawplusc_CMS_red}%
  \includegraphics[width=0.57\linewidth]{sigmawplusc_ATLAS}
  \caption{Comparison of associated $W$ plus charm production cross

    predictions using diverse PDF sets. The NNPDF2.3$_\mathrm{coll}$
    set does not include constraints on the strange PDF from
    low-energy DIS data.}
  \label{fig:wplusc}
\end{figure}

The D0 Collaboration also investigated the production of $W$ bosons in
association with at least one jet,\cite{Abazov:2013gpa} which is well
described by NLO as given by
\BLACKHAT + \SHERPA.\cite{Berger:2010vm,Berger:2010zx,Gleisberg:2008ta}
As expected LO plus parton shower event generators fail progressively
for higher jet multiplicities as demonstrated in Fig.~\ref{fig:vjets}
left. The ATLAS experiment measured inclusive $Z+$jet cross sections
with up to seven or more jets.\cite{Aad:2013ysa} Again \BLACKHAT +
\SHERPA~\cite{Berger:2010vm,Ita:2011wn,Gleisberg:2008ta} provides NLO
precision up to inclusive $Z+4$-jet production and agrees with the
data, while \MCATNLO~\cite{Frixione:2002ik} exhibits large
discrepancies for more than one jet, see Fig.~\ref{fig:vjets} right.

Identifying charm jets produced in association with a $W$ boson, e.g.\
via decays of the charmed hadrons $D^\pm$ or $D^{*\pm}$, gives direct
access to the strange quark and antiquark content of the proton. This
can help to significantly reduce the uncertainties of and assess
potential asymmetries between the strange quark and antiquark PDFs\@.
The measurement by CMS~\cite{Chatrchyan:2013uja} as presented in
Fig.~\ref{fig:wplusc} left agrees with theory computations at NLO from
MCFM~\cite{Campbell:2010ff} employing global PDF sets that include
constraints on the strange content from low-energy deep-inelastic
scattering (DIS) data. In contrast, a similar study from
ATLAS~\cite{ATLAS-CONF-2013-045} shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:wplusc} right
prefers PDFs excluding these DIS data. Since the phase space of the
two analyses is different, their compatibility is hard to judge. It
will be illuminating to see both data sets, when finalized, included
into a common global PDF fit.

\section{Jet production}
\label{sec:jets}

\begin{figure}[tbp]

    measurements are compared to predictions at NLO times
    nonperturbative (NP) corrections.}
  \label{fig:inclusivejets}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[tbp]

  \includegraphics[width=0.49\linewidth]{ratio1_3-jet-mass_CMS}%
  \includegraphics[width=0.49\linewidth]{incjetratio05over07_CMS}
  \caption{The 3-jet mass cross section for central rapidity by CMS
    (left)~\protect\cite{CMS-PAS-SMP-12-027} at 7\TeV as a ratio to

    PDF sets, and the jet cross-section ratio, also at 7\TeV, for the
    two different jet size parameters of $R=0.5$ and $0.7$ by CMS
    (right)~\protect\cite{CMS-PAS-SMP-13-002}. The latter is compared
    to predictions at LO and NLO with or without NP corrections; the
    best description of the data is given by
    \POWHEG\protect\cite{Alioli:2010xa} NLO + \PYTHIA (not shown).}
  \label{fig:3-jetmassrratio}
\end{figure}

ATLAS and CMS, both employ the anti-\kt\ jet
algorithm~\cite{Cacciari:2008gp} to define their jets, however with
different jet size parameters $R$ of $0.4$ or $0.6$ for ATLAS and
$0.5$ or $0.7$ for CMS, respectively. Profiting from the excellent
performance of both detectors the dominant experimental uncertainty
induced by the jet energy calibration could be limited to about
10--20\%. The common normalization uncertainty caused by the
luminosity determination could be reduced from initially more than
10\% down to 2--4\%.  Contrasting jet measurements from
CMS,\cite{Chatrchyan:2012bja,CMS-PAS-SMP-12-012,CMS-PAS-FSQ-12-031}
e.g.\ at 8\TeV in Fig.~\ref{fig:inclusivejets} left, or from
ATLAS~\cite{Aad:2011fc,ATLAS-CONF-2012-021,Aad:2013lpa} at 2.76\TeV in
Fig.~\ref{fig:inclusivejets} right, with theory at NLO demonstrates
agreement within uncertainties. This statement holds also when looking
into higher order observables like the 3-jet mass cross section as
studied by CMS~\cite{CMS-PAS-SMP-12-027} in
Fig.~\ref{fig:3-jetmassrratio} left for predictions involving various
PDF sets. The limiting factor, however, for even more accurate
comparisons is the lack of NNLO predictions, which, at least for dijet
production, will become available in the near
future~\cite{Ridder:2013mf} and allows to reduce the large scale
dependence.

\begin{figure}[tbp]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=0.75\linewidth]{multijetsnorm_H1}

    are normalized to the neutral-current cross section in
    deep-inelastic $ep$ scattering.}
  \label{fig:multijetsnorm}
\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[tbp]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=0.75\linewidth]{alpha-s_3-jet-mass_CMS}
  \caption{The strong coupling \alpsq\ (solid black line) and its

    transfer $Q=\avept$. The extractions of \alpsq\ from the 3-jet
    mass measurement are shown in eight separate ranges of $Q$
    together with previous results from
    CMS~\protect\cite{Chatrchyan:2013txa,Chatrchyan:2013haa} and from
    other hadron collider
    experiments.\protect\cite{Aaron:2009vs,Aaron:2010ac,Abramowicz:2012jz,Abazov:2009nc,Abazov:2012lua}}
  \label{fig:asrunning}
\end{figure}

A possibility to partially cancel experimental as well as theoretical
uncertainties in cross-section ratios is exploited by ATLAS through
the division of their inclusive jet measurements at two different
energy points.\cite{Aad:2013lpa} Profiting from data at 2.76\TeV, the
baseline proton-proton centre-of-mass energy for heavy ion collisions,
in addition to the 7\TeV data, the ATLAS Collaboration derives more
significant constraints on PDFs in the accessible phase space than
when considering each jet cross section alone.

Another possibility is, following a suggestion in
Ref.,\cite{Soyez:2011np} the cross-section ratio for jets defined with
different jet size parameters. Using this method, details of the
parton showering and the nonperturbative hadronization phase are
emphasized such that even NLO calculations are not able to describe
the data as shown by CMS~\cite{CMS-PAS-SMP-13-002} in
Fig.~\ref{fig:3-jetmassrratio} right, or previously by the ALICE
experiment.\cite{Abelev:2013fn} Investigating the angular correlation
in the emission of third jets around the second-leading jet in \pt,
effects of colour coherence of the strong interaction can be compared
to the modelling in parton shower event generators. Such an analysis
has been performed recently by CMS~\cite{Chatrchyan:2013tmp}
emphasizing the need for better event generator tunings.

In contrast, observables like the multi-jet cross sections normalized
to the neutral-current DIS cross section~\cite{H1prelim-12-031} shown
in Fig.~\ref{fig:multijetsnorm}, the average number of neighbouring
jets within a given distance in an inclusive jet sample,
\RdeltaR,\cite{Abazov:2012lua} or the inclusive 3-jet over 2-jet
event, \RRatio,\cite{Chatrchyan:2013txa} or jet cross-section ratios,
\NRatio,\cite{ATLAS-CONF-2013-041} are designed to be reliably
comparable to perturbative QCD\@. Confronting theory predictions with
measurements of these quantities the strong coupling constant \alpsmz
can be determined from energy scales $Q$ ranging from tenths of GeV up
to 1\TeV\@. All fit results, $\alpsmz = 0.1163 ^{+0.0048}_{-0.0040}$ (H1),
$\alpsmz = 0.1191 ^{+0.0048}_{-0.0071}$ (D0), $\alpsmz = 0.111
^{+0.017}_{-0.007}$ (ATLAS), and $\alpsmz = 0.1148 \pm 0.0055$ (CMS),
where the quadratically added total uncertainty is given, are
compatible with the world average value of
$\alpsmz=0.1184\pm0.0007$.\cite{Beringer:1900zz} In all cases the
total uncertainty is dominated by the scale uncertainties of the
theory predictions at NLO\@.  An overview of the $Q$ dependent
determinations including the D0 and CMS results, the latter also
comprising \alpsmz extractions from 3-jet mass cross sections and
$t\bar{t}$ production at
threshold,\cite{CMS-PAS-SMP-12-027,Chatrchyan:2013haa} is shown in
Fig.~\ref{fig:asrunning}. No deviation from the expected running
behaviour of the strong coupling \alpsq is observed.

\section{Summary}
\label{sec:summary}

It is a great achievement that such a large amount of accurate data
from multiple colliders are in general agreement with predictions of
QCD over many orders of magnitude in cross section and in a wide
region of phase space. Although a vast number of new theoretical tools
and calculations, including multiplicities with up to five jets, have
been developed at the same time, there are still cases, where
theoretical uncertainties are the limiting factor. For even more
precise comparisons NNLO is required.
With all this progress in measurements and theory more insight can be
gained into the workings of QCD with significant impact on the strong
coupling constant, PDFs, and cross-section predictions e.g.\ for the
Higgs boson and for searches for new physics.

The FlashBack Special Edition: Arrow – 'Legends of Yesterday'
Hey there Flash fans! As promised I'm bringing you a recap of the second half The Flash and Arrow crossover event. You can read The Flash recap here. As always remember there are spoilers beyond this point.
Last night's episode more or less ties the events of "Legends of Today" into a neat bow and sets up for the January 21st premiere of Legends of Tomorrow. However where Tuesday's episode of The Flash was largely a really well-done ensemble piece, last night's Arrow was definitely an Arrow episode. We start with a little history lesson per the DC universe. We get Ancient Times Kendra and Carter, or as they are known then, Chay-ara and Khufu. It seems that Chay-ara really is a powerful priestess and Khufu is the Pharaoh's son while Vandal Savage? He's also part of the picture. It also establishes that Khufu and Chay-ara have a secret relationship that Vandal has picked up on. The dude is creepy. Unfortunately it doesn't distract from the fact that they make a pretty bad mockery of Ancient Egypt.
Back in present time, Kendra isn't keen on letting Carter know that she remembers so she plays it off as they and the entire combined crew end up at a remote farmhouse in the general Central City area. The combined Arrow and Flash teams all have work to do to prepare for how they are going to deal with Savage. Oliver also has his own mission, which is to find out about the child his ex-girlfriend has so he goes off to do that, confronting the woman, who denies that the boy is Oliver's. Oliver manages to get a hair sample off of a hat.
Arrow, Malcolm, and Flash have a little meeting with Vandal Savage to find out what he wants over in a warehouse in Central City. Nuts and bolts is that he wants Kendra and Carter, which we already knew, and now he's given them a 24 hour deadline. What is interesting more than the deadline is that on the way to the meeting, Flash saw his "ghost" which means that there is a time jump. This disconcerts Barry, who tries to get some reassurance from Cisco.
There is a lot of exposition in this episode. Carter tries to get Kendra to tap into her rage to unlock her full ability and she continues to resist her memories. Oliver gets his DNA test and yes, little William is his. He tries to keep it from Felicity, but she finds out anyway and is really upset that he doesn't trust her and they have what appears to be a relationship-ending fight. Cisco and the rest of the science squad makes gauntlets they suspect will let them take the staff. At the appointed time they (and by they I mean Flash, Arrow, the Hawks,) go to the warehouse to take down Savage and it goes very, very badly. Kendra can't tap into her powers, the fight doesn't go as planned, and Savage wins. Everyone dies. Literally, everyone dies. Except Barry who manages to outrun the cosmic wave of death and in doing so runs so fast that he jumps back in time and ends up at the initial meeting with Savage.
Barry confides in Oliver about the time jump and just how catastrophically bad things go. This changes everything. Barry tells Oliver about William without the need for them to go to Barry's lab which means Felicity doesn't find out and the fight doesn't happen. Cisco goes to talk with Kendra to help her unlock her Hawk side and does so not with rage but by helping her embrace her past. That works and she fully and completely remembers her first death. memory gives her a lead on how they might be able to defeat Savage. It seems that Nth metal, that came from meteors that historically destroyed ancient Egypt, is the key. The team is able to get some (by stealing it from a museum) and use it to make the gauntlets work. And this time? They let the rest of the team come to help.
The fight goes down differently this time. Kendra can access her powers which works as the distraction they need. The entire team is able to wrestle with Savage which allows the Flash, and later Arrow, to grab the staff and use it against Savage. He is reduced to ash and the staff disappears. The good guys appear to win.
With the battle won Kendra and Carter decide to leave Central City for St. Roch. This means that Kendra and Cisco are over, which is sad and yet kind of sweet as Cisco makes her a special call button out of Nth metal and she gives him a kiss of thanks for helping her truly accept herself. Barry and Oliver hug before Oliver heads over to talk to his ex about William. She agrees to let him see William under the condition that he tells no one, and that he tells William he is just "mommy's friend." There is a charming scene where he plays action figures with William, who is a huge fan of The Flash (and also has an action figure of Captain Cold that I now want.)
Back in Star City, Felicity asks Oliver about what he was working on and he tells her it doesn't it matter. It's over and he's happy to be home with her. He elects not to tell Felicity about his son even after she talks about wanting to be able to help him and be on his team. This can't be good.
And in the warehouse? Malcolm is collecting the ashes of Savage and puts them in a container. Oh this isn't over yet.
And that concludes the crossover event. The shows have set up nicely for the upcoming Legends of Tomorrow, which was the primary aim of the event. What did you guys think of this year's crossover? How do you feel about Savage or our newly minted Hawkman and Hawkgirl? Let's talk in the comments!

A Nasal Weapon, How Brexit Affects Science (Abstract Science: July 25-29)
Trump vs. Clinton on science, digging into our noses for antibiotics, and the science uncertainty after Brexit.
Trump vs. Clinton on Science
(Nature, 7/26/2016, Jeff Tollefson)
Though neither Republican Donald Trump nor Democrat Hillary Clinton has emphasized core research issues, the candidates — and their parties — are beginning to flesh out their positions on climate change, education, biomedical research and other topics that involve the scientific community. Deciphering Trump's views on core science issues has been difficult given the free-wheeling style of his populist campaign. He has often seemed to focus more on taunting the political establishment than on staking out policy positions. By contrast, the Clinton campaign has consulted dozens of scientists on topics that include health, education and the environment.
The Nose Knows an Antibiotic
(Science, 7/27/2016, Kai Kupferschmidt)
The dire need for new antibiotics to fight drug-resistant infections received a bit of a lift this week when researchers from the University of Tübingen in Germany synthesized an antibiotic by using one species of nose-producing bacteria to kill another microbe. The findings appear this week in the journal Nature. The discovery came from a project looking at why only a third of us harbor the relatively common Staphylococcus aureus in our noses. A snot analysis—really!—found that the nose is actually a kind of desert environment, unfriendly to bacteria. Bacteria must compete aggressively to survive, and it turns out that one species of staph, S. lugdunensis, does so by producing an antibiotic compound that prevents S. aureus from growing.
Science Uncertainty after Brexit
(Science, 7/27/2016, Erik Stokstad)
In the weeks since the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, the U.K. government has made it clear that foreign residents won't be kicked out, and their legal rights remain intact—and that might only change after new treaties are forged, a process that could take years. But when the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom held an information session on Brexit this month, the meeting was packed and several hundred scientists and other staff crammed into an overflow room. "The general feeling was anxiety," says Ian Walmsley, pro-vice-chancellor for research and innovation at Oxford.

Cabrini Mission Foundation financially supports missions in the Guadalupe Province. Many times we are able to anticipate or respond to needs. Our generous donors have seen this in the form of projects or our request for immediate funds following the eruption of volcano Fuego in Guatemala. However, occasionally a need arises for which our missions could not prepare. For these emergent needs our missions rely on donations marked "Where Needed Most." Please consider making a donation to our general fund. It helps the missions on rainy days.
