The items originated with Captain Charles Rubidge and penciled annotations suggest that he collected or hand-copied a number of them in the early 1800s for his wife-to-be, Margaret Clarke, before coming to Canada. "Mrs. Rubidge" is written in hand on some pieces. Provenance is indicated on some documents in layered notes made by family descendants across generations. Also included is information compiled by Laurie Lambe Wallace about the sheet music and its history within the Rubidge family.
In 2017, 29 additional pieces of sheet music dating to the early 1800s were added. This music belonged to Mary Catharine Dunsford, wife of Reverend Hartley. Some of the music includes handwritten notations with family names and dates. While the publications of some pieces may date to the early 1800s, the handwritten penciled dates cover a period generally between the 1830s and 1860s. The notations point to connections between the Rubidge, Dunsford, McEwen, and Boyd families of the Peterborough area. Included in this addition is genealogical information compiled by the donor.

Lakefield Heritage Research


As you can probably guess, the holidays are a crazy time for Paper Pastries. Between keeping stock up for online orders and shops, planning out of town visits, and running the clubs it's easy to become overwhelmed. It is so nice to sit with a cub of tea and read a letter from a friend. I was so pleased to find a letter from my Australian pen pal, Sophie, in my mailbox. She always does such a great job decorating her envelopes to me.
This is my return letter to Sophie. Christine taught me that you don't have to put postage up in the right hand corner so it adds a bit of fun to the front. Sorry for poor quality of photo, its taken with a phone.
Even the back of her envelopes are decorated. I really appreciate all the effort she puts in to her letters.
Since we both love taking photographs, we've decided to include some prints in every letter we send. She send me a photo her writing desk, herself, a tree in her front yard, and her father.
Her letter was typed on this cute telegram stationery.
After I wrote a return letter to Sophie, it inspired me to write more. I'm sending something to Christine up north, and a few postcards for postcrossing, they are going to Turkey, China, Canada, Haiti, and Poland.
Looks like your other penpal better kick it up a notch! So cute!!!!

Q: Trying to conform to StringLiteralConvertible I'm running into a few oddities while trying to conform to StringLiteralConvertible:
class Person: StringLiteralConvertible {
    var name = ""

    init(name n:String){
        name = n
    }

    init(stringLiteral value: StringLiteralType){
        name = n
    }

    init(extendedGraphemeClusterLiteral value: ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralType){
        name = n
    }

    init(unicodeScalarLiteral value: UnicodeScalarLiteralType){
        name = n
    }
}

var ironMan = Person(name: "Tony Stark")
var spiderMan: Person = "Peter Parker"

I implemented both the ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralConvertible and the UnicodeScalarLiteralConvertible protocols (whatever on Earth that means).
However I still got errors and had to provide definitions for both ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralType and UnicodeScalarLiteralType:
typealias ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralType = String
typealias UnicodeScalarLiteralType = String

Why did I have to provide this, if it's already in the standard header???
The compiler considered it still had the right to complain and forced me to add the required keyword to the inits, even though the definition of the protocols does not include the required keyword! Why????
The following code compiles, but I don't understand why the first version didn't compile!
class Person: StringLiteralConvertible {
    var name = ""

    init(name n:String){
        name = n
    }

    typealias ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralType = String
    typealias UnicodeScalarLiteralType = String

    required convenience init(stringLiteral value: StringLiteralType){
        self.init(name: value)
    }

    required convenience init(extendedGraphemeClusterLiteral value: ExtendedGraphemeClusterLiteralType){
        self.init(name: value)
    }

    required convenience init(unicodeScalarLiteral value: UnicodeScalarLiteralType){
        self.init(name: value)
    }
}

Swift, if you like the compiler to yell at you, you're gonna love it! :-P

A: Why typealiases:
The answer to your first question lies in the fact that Swift protocols that have associated types can be considered abstract, and need to be bound to a specific type.  Associated types are an alternative to using a more specialized approach like class MyClass : IsCompatibleWith<Int> {}.  I think the reason for this is to have common hierarchies, but this limitation also causes many other headaches.  No matter what though, it is reasonable and expected that you need to specify the type to which the protocol is bound.  In Swift, you do this by type-aliasing associated type to the one you want (String in your case).
Also note, that the associated type is not specified in the protocol, the protocol only specifies that you must define it.  That said, unless you have conflicting methods on your class, the compiler can generally infer the associated type (read this in the docs somewhere).
Required initializers:
It appears that initializers specified in protocols are required by default / nature.  The documentation says that you can implement them as designnated or convenience, but that either way they are required:

Class Implementations of Protocol Initializer Requirements
You can implement a protocol initializer requirement on a conforming
  class as either a designated initializer or a convenience initializer.
  In both cases, you must mark the initializer implementation with the
  required modifier:
class SomeClass: SomeProtocol {
required init(someParameter: Int) {
// initializer implementation goes here
}
}

The use of the required modifier ensures that you provide an explicit
  or inherited implementation of the initializer requirement on all
  subclasses of the conforming class, such that they also conform to the
  protocol.

From my reading though, it answers what but not why.

Usted es un pronombre personal del español, gramaticalmente de tercera persona del singular, pero semánticamente de segunda persona, que en la oración desempeña la función de sujeto y de complemento con preposición; por ejemplo: «Ha hecho usted muy buen trabajo»; «Usted está a tiempo».

Etimología
Según indica la RAE es un aféresis de vusted, que a su vez procede de vuestra merced, un tratamiento o título de cortesía que se usaba antiguamente con aquellos que no tenían renombre o grado por donde se les debieran otros tratamientos superiores. Así, vuestra merced evolucionaría hacia vusted.

Paradigma verbal
 Normalmente se emplea como tratamiento de cortesía, respeto o distanciamiento, pero en Costa Rica, Honduras y ciertos lugares de Colombia y Guatemala es apto en el trato entre amigos o familiares como forma cordial.
 Sus formas verbales son las de tercera persona singular (puede usted sentarse).
 Su plural es «ustedes», que en Hispanoamérica y en algunas zonas de España (Andalucía Occidental y Canarias) cumple la función de segunda persona del plural, mientras que en el centro y norte de España así como en Guinea Ecuatorial se emplea la forma «vosotros» en el trato cotidiano con conjugaciones particulares, reservando «ustedes» para el tratamiento respetuoso. En el archipiélago de Chiloé (Chile), «ustedes» y sus conjugaciones se emplean como forma de tratamiento cortés para una persona.
 En la escritura, se suele abreviar Ud., cuyo plural es Uds.; también pueden usarse Vd., U. y V.

Fenómeno lingüístico
En el acento gocho de Venezuela puede distinguirse su utilización marcada. Se abandona por completo el tú, el voseo y el vuestra merced. No implica respeto implícito por parte del hablante, pues se utiliza constantemente. Igualmente en Bogotá, Colombia.

.30 Cal. Metal Ammo Can - Original US Military Surplus Used M19A1
Used in fair condition. Original US Military Surplus. .30 Cal ammo can. 200 cartridges. 7.62 MM, M13, overhead fire, 1 M62 .4 M80 LC-87j601l368 can be printed on front of ammo can. Metal ammo can original military surplus. Ammo can are ideal for storage, safe transportation of shotgun and rifle shells, tools, perishables, hunting camp items. Dimensions 10.25" x 6.5" x 3.5" (inches). M19A1.
The .30 caliber M19 / M19A1 steel ammunition can / box was developed to deliver belts of 250 .30-06 cartridges for the .30 Cal. Browning machine guns and was later used for the NATO equivalent 7.62mm rounds for the M60 machine gun and other weapons. It has also been used for various calibers in cartons, clips, bandoleers or other packaging. The .30 cal. steel M19 / M19A1 ammo can replaced the steel Cal .30 M1 / M1A1 ammunition box after World War II.
The steel construction M19 / M19A1 small arms box was introduced to replace the WW II era M1 / M1A1 .30 caliber ammunition box. Like its predecessor, the M19 / M19A1 can has been used not only for belts of .30-06 machine gun ammunition, but for many other small arms cartridges including the NATO 7.62mm rounds that superseded the .30-06 rounds.
The M19 / M19A1 ammunition box is used for many combination's of cartridges and packaging, primarily 7.62mm and .30-06 rifle and machine gun ammunition, but packed in belts, clips in bandoleers, bulk, cartons or other combination's.
The M19 ammo can (or box, ammunition, M19) was introduced in 1946 and was manufactured for a relatively short time. There are two known manufacturers of the M19, both in Michigan: Mt. Vernon Metals in Grand Rapids and the Rudy Furnace Co. of Dowagiac. Rudy was making these boxes as early as 1948 and possibly earlier. M19 production is believed to have been terminated no later than the end of 1953. The M19A1 superseded the M19 and was produced in much larger quantities, starting in 1954 or a little earlier. The M19A1 ammo can corrected all of the deficiencies noted in the M19. While M19A1 cans exist in abundance, by the end of the 20th century, M19 Ammo Cans were rare and seldom found outside of military collections.

You in Five Acts; Una LaMarche
You in Five Acts by Una LaMarche
Trying very hard to be clever when a straightforward book would have worked far better. The shifting POV, so we're not entirely clear who "you" is at any given time, doesn't help make the story come to life it just creates a pause while readers figures out who and what. Once the gimmick is dispensed with, this is a standard last semester of school novel, one with all the fears about the future, taking last chances, etc.. It might have helped if the situations weren't so obvious, or if there had been a true Roshomon-effect with the differing POVs.
Weregirl; C.D. Bell
Weregirl by C.D. Bell
Not sure if the "were" part is supposed to be symbolic, or if the author is trying for horror - better readers than I can figure that out. What I got was a relatively standard high-school story about a character that isn't quite likeable (likeable enough for me to finish, but not for me to want to learn more about should this turn into a series) with a unique challenge: managing her change into a weregirl. And then there's the love aspect which wasn't convincing. There was promise here, unfulfilled promise.


The Odessa Center for Nonproliferation (OdCNP), a partner of the Nuclear Proliferation International History Project, invites applications for a fellowship hosted in Odessa, Ukraine. The Fellowship is an opportunity for scholars and researchers to conduct research on themes pertaining to the nuclear history of Ukraine. This fellowship is supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
Russia's relations with North Korea are often ignored in the West, being overshadowed by China. Yet Russia has been a major player on the Korean Peninsula since the late 19th century. It was directly responsible for the creation of the North Korean state (the DPRK) and it still maintains a range of political, economic and social links. Indeed, Russia is now the only major country on more or less friendly terms with Pyongyang.
The Trump administration has cited North Korea's attainment of nuclear weapons and increasingly advanced missiles as a key reason for reexamining the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. "What we're saying now with Iran is don't let it become the next North Korea," U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said on October 15.
President Trump departs today on a five-country visit to Asia, the longest overseas journey of his presidency. The North Korea nuclear crisis will cast its pall throughout, but trade imbalances, an emboldened China, and U.S. commitment to the region will all be key themes. Experts, including former U.S. assistant secretary of state Kurt Campbell, offered an incisive preview.
Kim Jong Un is on a roll. After firing a second missile over Japan, successfully testing an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), and successfully detonating a larger-yield nuclear weapon, the North Korean threat has grown significantly more dire in just a few weeks. General John Hyten, who commands U.S.
The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) was, to quote President Johnson's national security adviser, Walt Rostow, "a constitutional arrangement for the organization of the noncommunist world." While its negotiations reopened lines of communication between the superpowers that had been closed since Nuremberg, Moscow mostly played a supporting role. Its cooperation, though necessary, was insufficient for the treaty's success.
Is the Trump administration seriously contemplating changing the regime in North Korea? Frankly, the signals are mixed.

American Dharma (Errol Morris, US) — TIFF Docs
By Clara Miranda In Cinema Scope Online, TIFF 2018
By Clara Miranda Scherffig
Many viewers "only" know Steve Bannon as the bad-skinned evil plotter behind Donald Trump: a racist, a fascist, an occasional movie producer, a failed media mogul—in other words, not exactly a cinephile. Errol Morris' documentary about Bannon, American Dharma, includes excerpts of classic American films picked by Bannon to illustrate his career, which spans from the exploitation of virtual currencies in the gaming industry to recent alt-right proselytism in Europe.
The interview opens with excerpts of Twelve O' Clock High, where Bannon identifies with Gregory Peck as the embodiment of two ideal types of leadership. He has the so-called "dharma": duty, fate, destiny. What the second type of leadership entails, we never find out. This may be due to Morris' editing, or, more likely, to the inconsistent nature of Bannon's speech, which we are led to believe is a direct consequence of his contradictory thinking. Differently from The Unkown Known, where Morris left Donald Rumsfeld's frightening rhetoric speak for his own lies, in American Dharma the director straightforwardly confronts his interviewee, openly highlighting the incoherence of his claims. There are two Bannons, states Morris: a good one who strives for the working class, and a bad one who yearns for a government-free, unregulated social system.
Here, Morris exposes himself more than usual. His words as he confronts Bannon appear to be motivated not by bewilderment, but by fear—the same fear that compelled him to support Hilary Clinton instead of Bernie Sanders. It was Bannon, a fan of The Fog of War, who pitched the documentary about himself to Morris. Morris accepted, hoping to shed light on his point of view, even though he finds it frightening. But wondering whether it's nature or nurture, indifference seemed more dangerous than offering the man yet another stage to speak on.
One thing Bannon says makes sense: "Politics have become media." Tweets and news stories triggered by Bannon's involvement with Breitbart and Trump's presidential campaign (such as Weinergate and the Clinton email controversy) are recalled in recurring visual reconstructions reflecting contemporary modes of information production and process. It's nauseating, less for the content than for the form of the stream. Each of the chapters of the interview is introduced by a different font. One of the last ones, "Angry Voices," uses the same type as the popular video game Angry Birds. Morris' use of media tropes suggests that Bannon's reasoning is childish, just like the honey badger meme he refers to or a school kid who convinces his classmates that his teacher is a pig just by repeating the absurd assumption.
Before the documentary ends on the foreboding note of Bannon's links with Switzerland's Front National and European populism, he is finally shown walking. Freed from the talking-head frame, he roams through destroyed, movie set-like houses while Trump's inauguration speech runs, rather unsubtly, off camera. Bannon was seen in Venice on the day of the film's premiere, and his planned participation in the New Yorker festival led many speakers to cancel or boycott the event. Fighting Bannon's ideas does feel like exhaustingly, pointlessly tilting at windmills. It is therefore perfectly understandable that some should decide to abort the mission before even starting. Yet when the ideas—and therefore the existence—of so many other people are at stake, understanding becomes the preliminary, if not foundational, weapon to exercise opposition. Although not entirely successful, American Dharma is a first step in that direction.

SPIAA: South Gray loses first, undone by South Central
By Shelton Burch Gatehouse Kansas
In the championship game of the 2019 SPIAA Tournament, the South Central boys team did something no team had successfully done in 38 straight tries.
The Timberwolves beat the South Gray Rebels, 61-60.
After trailing early by as many as 13 in the first quarter, the Timberwolves rallied back, knocking off last year's Class 1A-DI state champions.
"It's one of those things I tell the boys all of the time. 'If we do our stuff and run our things the way we're supposed to, we can basketball games, we can compete with anybody,' " South Central head coach Roe Macias said. "It was my fault to start, I tried to put us in a 3-2 zone, that's not our norm, but when we got back to our full-court man like we run and things we do, it all came back together."
Senior Austin Jantz had a game-high 21 for the Rebels, including 13 in the second half as the Rebels tried to escape with a victory.
Early on, it was senior Clifton Miller who caused the Timberwolves issues. He had 14 points in the first half, including four 3-pointers that helped the Rebels build their lead.
Miller had just two second-half points.
Part of what allowed South Central to limit him was schematic adjustments they made. Macias said they ran their normal man-defensive scheme, but junior Owen Alexander was assigned to only stick with Miller, and not help on other players.
Alexander's 6-foot, 4-inch height gave him a three-inch advantage on Miller.
"We basically just went kind of like a box-and-one, not a box, more like a man-and-one, so yeah, that's what helped," Macias said.
In some instances, the Rebels tried to screen, but the Timberwolves defenders switched effectively, in at least one case leading to a Rebels turnover.
Aside from Miller and Jantz, the only other Rebel in double figures was sophomore Aaron Skidmore, who had 18 for South Gray.
For South Central, Alexander had the team-high of 20 points. Junior Xavier Frazier had 16, and junior Chayde Snyder had 14.
In general, the Timberwolves had a good night shooting-wise.
"Xavier was on his game tonight, Chayde was on his game tonight, and it helped the outside guys get open shots," Macias said. "That's usually how it works: inside out."

Vaping company JUUL investigated by Massachusetts for allegedly marketing to minors
Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey said her office is investigating JUUL Labs and other online electronic-cigarette retailers that sell its products over concern that JUUL's vaping devices are being sold to minors.
Vaping company JUUL investigated by Massachusetts for allegedly marketing to minors Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey said her office is investigating JUUL Labs and other online electronic-cigarette retailers that sell its products over concern that JUUL's vaping devices are being sold to minors.

SAN FRANCISCO — JUUL, the e-cigarette company that's dominating the market, is being investigated for allegedly marketing to minors.
In a livestreamed press conference Tuesday, Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey said her office is investigating JUUL Labs and other online electronic-cigarette retailers over concern that they're targeting these vaping devices to children and young teens.
Healey said the slim mechanisms — which contain the same amount of nicotine as a pack of cigarettes and come in flavors like mango and crème brûlée — are popular among middle and high school students, who can easily fool school teachers into thinking the device is a flash drive.
The Attorney General's Office will investigate JUUL's approach to ensuring minors aren't buying products from its site and from other online retailers that sell JUUL products.
Healey compared JUUL's marketing efforts to cigarette companies using cartoons, cute mascots and other advertisements in the past to "get tens of millions of smokers addicted while they were young."

More: Juul e-cigarettes are 'in' with today's teens. Here's how the FDA is cracking down
In response to the announcement, JUUL Labs' chief communication officer Matt David said in a statement that the company has never marketed to minors. Instead, word of mouth among adults is how the company's e-cigarette has become so popular.
"Like many Silicon Valley technology startups, our growth is not the result of marketing but rather a superior product disrupting an archaic industry," he said. "When adult smokers find an effective alternative to cigarettes, they tell other adult smokers."
The Attorney General's Office also sent cease and desist demands to online companies, Direct Eliquid and Eonsmoke, ordering them to stop selling JUUL products without using an age verification system that meets Massachusetts regulations.
In 2015, those regulations established electronic smoking devices can't be sold to anyone under the age of 18. They also require online retailers verify the age of buyers via a "commercially available database" and the signature of an adult buyer before the package can be shipped.
"The AG's Office believes that Direct Eliquid LLC and Eonsmoke, LLC are in violation of these regulations," the release said.
The office asked both companies for information about transactions, shipping and delivery procedures, age verification procedures, communications with JUUL, and complaints from consumers in the state.
In April, the Food and Drug Administration issued warnings to 40 online and traditional e-cigarette retailers, including convenience stores and vape specialty shops. A day later, JUUL — which is valued at more than $15 billion, according to Bloomberg — announced a $30 million campaign with independent researchers and public health experts to curb underage use of JUUL products.
David said JUUL wants "to partner and engage with policymakers, lawmakers, educators and parents to combat underage use," and that the company is "committed to working with those who want to keep JUUL out of the hands of young people."

On this page you will find some usefull information about the Sedlec Ossuary location, including a map, as well as ticket prices and the opening hours info. Enjoy your visit at Kutna Hora!
To reach Kutná Hora from Prague, you will have to take a train journey of about 1 hour.
Kutna Hora is not that big, so you will most probably walk there by foot. It is interesting to know that while the modern Kutná Hora is small in size and population, it once was the second largest city in the Czech Republic, as there was a big silver mine during medieval times.
→ Between November and February: from 9:00 to 12:00 and from 13:00 to 16:00.
→ The Ossuary is closed on Christmas.
The entrance fee to the Sedlec Ossuary is a modest one. For adults it is 90 Czech Koronas (about $3.50 or 3.2 euros). For students and children the entrance fee is even smaller: 60 CZK.
If you want to bring home some souvenirs, you can buy a skull model (this time made of plaster) for around 400 Koronas, as well as postcards, key rings etc.
The Sedlec Ossuary is located in the suburbs of the medieval town of Kutná Hora. Kutná Hora is located at about 70 km distance from Prague, the capital of Czech Republic, where you will most probably come from.

how safe is it to drink water from faucet in airplane lavatories?
how safe is it to drink water, or simply to rinse out your mouth after brushing your teeth, from faucet in airplane lavatories?
You should ask the FA for some bottled water to wet your brush and rinse your mouth out.
There have been stories that unless you see them open the bottled water that is even questionable water.
I would not trust it, probably nothing will happen, but it's not worth the risk.
Very dangerous! One second of turbulence and *BAM* you lose a tooth.
I had a quick read of the links posted above but I'm still not sure exactly what the problem is with airplane water. Would it be fair to say that the water from taps on a plane is as good as the water at the destinations it visits? That is, if a plane only ever did round trips between LAX and NYC then I'd be fine drinking the water? The water isn't just pumped out of the nearest lake?
Apparently it is known, at least to former Pan Am crew as "Galley Springs". Be wary when flying in the US if the water is dispensed from a pitcher rather than a bottle, but I know that some crew have been known to refill the bottles from the on-board supply.
Would it be fair to say that the water from taps on a plane is as good as the water at the destinations it visits? That is, if a plane only ever did round trips between LAX and NYC then I'd be fine drinking the water?
Planes don't fly closed loops such as just back and forth between LAX and NYC so it's a bit of a non-starter, but even if they did, the problem is not necessarily with the immediate source of the water, but the holding tanks on the planes. If bacteria gets into the tanks, it can be difficult to clean them. The bacteria can then build up and contaminate the water that's introduced to the tanks.
Many airplanes have a placard in the lav indicating that the water is not potable. Even if the source of the water is safe, in order to inhibit bacterial and algal growth, they treat the holding tanks with chemicals that are not good for you.
Don't do it. Studies have shown that airline faucet water contains more bacteria than public toilet water. Of course, if drinking from toilets doesn't bother you, then go ahead & enjoy!
I always use the sink water to rinse out my mouth after brushing my teeth on the plane (I am fairly fanatical about brushing after every meal). No issues, ever.
I also think all that stupid hand sanitizer everywhere is the biggest scam of the 21st century.
I just ask the FA for a can of soda water. I like rinsing with something fizzy.
All the sea monkeys living in the tanks must have strengthened your immune system.
Eurgh. The tanks are rarely if ever fully emptied. The dregs become brackish. The temperature rises and falls, making the tanks breeding grounds for microbial pests. Source water comes from any number of stations -- and consider the delivery system; tanks or casks mounted on airport vehicles, probably no cleaner, maybe worse.
I'd never drink that stuff, and I never accept water from open pitchers because I have seen FAs refill them from lav taps.
Bottom line: if you get on a plane and find encrusted bodily fluids on the seat fabrics, snot smeared on the cabin walls, rotten food and discarded nose-blowing tissues in the seat pockets, remnants of baby feces from in-seat diaper changing, etc., etc., and that's the visible filth they're ignoring... imagine how much care they take to keep the (invisible) water tanks shipshape. Yuck.
So if there is bacteria in the tanks, isn't it getting passed onto us when we wash our hands?

To understand is to invent.
We rightly think of citizenship in terms of nations, but there's a deeper meaning that's especially important in our interconnected, global, digital world. The citizen is the one who enjoys the privileges and duties of freedom. Freedom, in turn, depends on agency, self-efficacy, a sense of one's own power to make effective choices and realize one's fullest potential. To do so in a digital age requires an expanded notion of citizenship. Becoming a digital citizen means one can experience effective agency and self-determination in one's culture—and culture increasingly comes in the plural as time and distance are no longer barriers to free and fluid communication. Indeed, one's "cultures" increasingly implies a significant portion of "one's planet." To have the freedom of this realm, one must become a digital citizen. Once the digital imagination is awakened, the goal of digital citizenship can be reached.
To get to this level, however, colleges and universities must finally abandon notions of one-size-fits-all that have dominated our notions of scaling and access for over a century. The digital age permits mass customization. The culture of a school can look much more like New York City and much less like The Mall Of America. Chris Dede of the Harvard Graduate School of Education (and formerly of a sister school to our north, George Mason University), has argued that human behaviors exist on a continuum that can be described by three points: sleeping, eating, and bonding. Sleeping is very nearly one-size-fits-all. Eating is much more varied and personal. Bonding is extraordinarily complex, personal, and almost bewilderingly varied (as any parent of a teenager in love can testify). Dede observes that we treat learning like sleeping, yet everything we know about learning suggests it is really much more like bonding. "Yet the very best of our high-end learning environments have about as much variety as a bad fast-food restaurant," he concludes. (An expanded discussion of Dede's point may be found here.)
To get to the variety, depth, and complexity of true learning, then, we must commit to the mass customization that the digital age makes possible. We cannot and should not do that work for our students. We should empower their awakened digital imaginations to do that work for themselves, as a powerful opportunity not only for self-expression but also for metacognitive and critical reflections on their own identities and purposes as students. We should not hand them a portfolio made up of pre-formed data buckets. We should instead challenge them to build their own personal cyberinfrastructures, iteratively developing them as their concepts deepen, their knowledge broadens, and their imaginations flourish. We should challenge them not to "manage" their learning, as the term "learning management system" implies, but boldly to lead their learning lives within their degree work and far beyond it.

We must also empower students to understand the way the global digital network operates and what it makes possible. Just as we buy our own houses without applying for permission to a state "housing management authority" (let's ignore for the moment that a mortgage does involve an application), so we can register a domain, subscribe to a hosting service, install open-source software, and begin to publish our thoughts and dreams to the world without having to have even the FCC-third-class-license-with-broadcast-endorsement one had to have to be a disc jockey back in the day. To quote Clay Shirky, it's as if every book came with a free printing press. Just as in the days of the printing press, there are many worries about authority, authenticity, intellectual property, and sheer volume of information. These complaints emerged within a few decades of Gutenberg's invention. Yet we do not rely on a National Committee To Screen And Filter Books for our self-directed learning within this abundance of conversation. We educate our youth and ourselves to read and write with facility and discernment. Likewise, we must empower our students as digital citizens to make their contributions to the global conversations, and to establish the corner of the global network that will be their "Speaker's Corner," just like the corner in London's Hyde Park where by tradition anyone can have their turn to speak—and thus to lead the next phase of the conversation.
It may be the case that students who are used to sitting in silence or distracting themselves with Internet snacks will be caught off guard when they are not told to put away their laptops but are instead encouraged and indeed expected to demonstrate their contributions to the digital age. They may recall that something is at stake here, and that their capacity as free men and women to create knowledge and find meaning is a privilege not lightly to be discarded. Likewise, it may be that teachers (and staff, too) who are used to captive audiences will need to realign their goals and behaviors toward the free men and women, the digital citizens, who come to study with them. The old contract in which both students and faculty pledge to leave each other in peace may become a new relationship in which both students and faculty are open and eager to building together as fellow digital citizens.
Build In The Future
Such a vision of digital leadership in our students' and nation's future will require strong leadership now, before we have all the knowledge we would like to have to proceed. To put that another way, the leadership Virginia Tech must demonstrate to the world depends to a large extent on the willingness of its administrators, faculty, and staff to empower each other to risk failure. We all fear anarchy, and rightly so. There must at some level be the confidence that trains will run on time, for without that confidence, our lives are ruled by fear and anxiety (and our schedules are thrown into a cocked hat). Yet an on-time train going in the wrong direction is worse than useless. Likewise, a burnished and mechanically sophisticated Titanic on the bottom of the North Atlantic is a tragedy, not a monument.
From CIO magazine
The example of Google is instructive here. "Google Innovation Time Off" has become famous as a means of encouraging employee creativity and innovation (and thus leadership). 20% of the engineers' work time can and should be spent on their own projects. Most famously, Gmail and AdSense emerged from "Innovation Time Off." What is less well known is that Google Labs, the primary beneficiary of this innovation, courts just the kind of anarchy higher education would no doubt blanch at:
Google Labs is a playground where our more adventurous users can play around with prototypes of some of our wild and crazy ideas and offer feedback directly to the engineers who developed them. Please note that Labs is the first phase in a lengthy product development process and none of this stuff is guaranteed to make it onto Google.com. While some of our crazy ideas might grow into the next Gmail or iGoogle, others might turn out to be, well, just plain crazy.
Could we build a Google Labs for curriculum? For majors? For capstone or cornerstone courses (or projects, or experiences)? For departments? If our digital imaginations are awakened, if we have grown into the agency and self-efficacy of mature digital citizenship, and if our leaders are willing to underwrite (with political as well as financial capital) the failures and "just plain crazy" experiments that would result, perhaps Virginia Tech, like Google, would find itself the place where the most engaged and ambitious students are most eager to be. Google is not perfect by any means, but if you can imagine a digital environment in which we empower ourselves and our students to "launch their imaginations early and often," to slightly modify another Google mantra, then you can imagine a Virginia Tech that can truly lead in a comprehensive, integrative program of digital citizenship.
You don't have to believe in the "singularity" to see the wisdom and the caution in this Ray Kurzweil quotation: "I'm an inventor. I became interested in long-term trends because an invention has to make sense in the world in which it is finished, not the world in which it is started" (emphasis added). The wisdom is clear, the caution perhaps less so. But consider the second half of that second sentence. The best, most prescient, most effective inventions will likely not be completely understood or even understandable when they are begun. The true innovators among our digital citizens who invent the future will need the patronage and courage of leaders who are not afraid to confront their own lack of understanding and who can live with the paradoxical certainty that the "unknown unknown" is where the richest innovations will come from.
As a thought experiment, imagine explaining to a medieval king who prides himself on not needing to know how to read that a day will come when mass literacy empowers citizens worldwide. Imagine explaining to an alpha-male executive in the early 1960s that a day will come when not knowing at least the rudiments of typing will likely disqualify an applicant from obtaining an executive position. Imagine explaining Twitter, or YouTube, or blogging, to the world of 1995, a time when many people loudly insisted that no one would ever do something as foolish as enter a credit card number in a form on a Web page. Virginia Tech has a proud tradition of invention and innovation. We likely believe we would welcome the next Jeff Bezos and empower him to invent the next Amazon.com. Are we willing to provide that encouragement and those opportunities as part of our core curriculum? Can we imagine a Curriculum for Liberal Education that increases our students' range of, and capacity for, sheer interest and curiosity, and empowers the exploration and expression of that curiosity within a digital context? If we cannot, we risk losing one of the most extraordinary educational opportunities humanity has ever encountered. Moreover, we shortchange both our students and ourselves. Not only our tagline but our very mission should steer us toward full and deep intellectual and creative engagement with the digital age.


Packaging Innovation or Short-term Craze?
The Scotland based company, Gizmo Packaging, has recently unveiled its latest invention to the public: a bottle cap closure that allows the consumer to inject the liquid in the bottle with active ingredients, flavors, or vitamins. You simply twist the cap, and you can add a variety of flavors to your bottled water.
As our on-the-go lifestyles become increasingly busier, new packaging innovations have helped us maintain that speed. From microwave popcorn to squeezable tube yogurt to single servings of just about anything, each packaging advance shaves seconds (and maybe minutes) off our daily activities to allow us to spend a little more time with friends and family.
I too have jumped on the bandwagon of adding flavor packets to my bottled water, but am I really so busy that I can't tear open a foil packet and pour the powder into the bottle? Plus, there's always the chance that my attention deficit disorder kicks in and I twist all the caps at once in an entire case of water just to see the magical flavor injection take place. Also, how much extra would I be willing to pay for those few seconds of excitement?
I'm sure once this gadget makes it to the U.S. I will give it a whirl. Maybe this will be a new craze that catches on like some of the other great packaging innovations, and we'll never have a reason to drink plain water again!
You can learn more at Gizmo Closures Website.
This looks like it would be amazingly fun, and it has a tremendous amount of potential for people like me who spend a lot of time on the road and need their drinks to stay fresh.
Ha! I'm afraid I skimmed through this blog a bit the first time around. I love your comment on how much extra you would be willing to pay for a few moments of excitement. This is true-this looks like something I would pick up, then spend hours filling and playing with myself if I had the technology. I think the innovation and novelty alone will be enough to make these a seller on the open market.
I recently did a piece on this for my blog as well, just because it was cool! I love the fact that you could use this for just about anything. Not being a farmer I'm not all that knowledgeable about the pesticide applications and such that they're talking about, but I think this will be a neat addition to the spa market-especially if they can find a way to make the addition of the extra ingredients optional. Two choices in one package!
I've been looking around, but haven't seen the Gizmo closure on the store shelves yet. Is this a UK only thing? And when can we expect to see it in the States?
I think they're trying to spread out from the UK-the company that makes it is based in Scotland, but they've got manufacturing and distribution partners just about everywhere else.
I saw that YouTube video-I can't remember if that's the one I was thinking of or not (I stumbled onto an article about this on the web and decided to do some digging) but one of them had an example where they were using milk rather than water, and it was soooo cool.
I still haven't seen any of these in the US market. Has anyone else found the Gizmo cap? If so, what region or retailers?

WOMEN WHO HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE
Home/News/WOMEN WHO HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE
There are plenty of women who have made a difference in the healthcare industry and been credited for it. Think Clara Barton, Eleanor Roosevelt and Elizabeth Blackwell. But this Women's History Month, we want to focus on the women whose names have been forgotten, although their actions have had huge impact.
First, let us honor the thousands of military nurses who served in America's wars, beginning in the 1700s. These brave women risked their lives and the possibility of being taken hostage to tend to wounded soldiers on the frontlines. Today, two thirds of those serving in the Nurses Army Corps are women, and they can be deployed for up to six months at a time.
We also honor the many women who took part in Red Cross initiatives since its founding in 1863. During World War II, women made bandages, sewed surgical gowns, and assembled food parcels which were sent to prisoners of war who had no other contact with the outside world. Today, the Red Cross encourages women to volunteer and support various humanitarian causes.
In 1848, the New England Female Medical College opened its doors with 12 students. These women braved society's prejudices to become the first trained female physicians in the United States. The school had a special focus on childbirth, since the male founder of the school felt it was inappropriate for men to assist at births.
We honor the women who have served as nurses throughout history. In the 1880s, there were no formal training courses for nurses and they simply learned on the job. Each nurse cared for 50 patients and worked from 7 AM to 8 PM. They cleaned floors, scuttled coals and washed windows. They were not permitted to get their hair done in beauty parlors or attend dance parties.
Although nursing has gotten a bit easier over time, the women who work as nurses are still some of the most hardworking women in the workforce. All the women who work as registered nurses, licensed nurses and nursing assistants are making a difference in the world every time they don their scrubs. They may not be written up in history books in years to come, but they can be proud of the impact they have on their patients day in and day out.

Początki kariery wojskowej księcia Antoniego Pawła Sułkowskiego
The beginnings of Antoni Paweł Sułkowski's military career
Author(s): Dawid Madziar
Summary/Abstract: The Napoleonic period was the period when turbulent political and military careers were made. In the substitute of Polish statehood that was constituted by the Duchy of Warsaw, established by Napoleon, along with the reconstruction of the Polish Army there appeared the opportunity of starting a career in the army. The most brilliant career in the Polish Army of the Napoleonic period was made by prince Antoni Paweł Sułkowski, whichbegan in 1806 when he was promoted to the rank of a colonel. In order to understand the factors which influenced this turn of events, one must examine prince Sułkowski's attitude during the campaign of 1807 in Pomerania. During the campaign of 1807 the young Sułkowski became the leader of the 1st infantry regiment that he established himself and that became a part of the Poznań division, commanded by General Jan Henryk Dąbrowski. Pomerania, which saw the most bitter fighting, was the theatre of war for this division. Prince Sułkowski, who was the leader of his regiment, participated in the battles in Tczew, Gdańsk and Kołobrzeg, manifesting considerable valour. His dedication was recognised both by Polish and French supervisors. Despite the praise that was lavished on prince Sułkowski, the campaign failed to satisfy his great ambition to be nominated a general at such a young age – 22. However, the military campaigns in which prince Sułkowski participated as the leader of his regiment, constituted the initial stage of his career which was to develop very rapidly. In 1810 Antoni Paweł Sułkowski received nomination to become a brigadier general, and in 1813 he was nominated a major general. Thus he became the youngest person in this rank inthe Duchy of Warsaw.

Claire Austin is former communications director of University Hospital Birmingham foundation trust and is now a freelance consultant. claireaustin1 @hotmail. com Many of the best communicators are also talented orchestral musicians - but what's the connection?
First, musicians have to listen.
You must be acutely aware of what is going on around you and you need to adapt.
If you play a brass instrument you will often need to tone down your sound so it does not swamp the more delicate flutes and violins. And if you are a flautist, you will need to play up to be heard over the raucous brass section.
Second, you often have to play a part that fills in the harmonies, rather than takes the main melody.
Good communicators also have to steer an independent path. They usually have to forsake the easy 'tuneful' message for one that is harder to listen to.
Third, both have to be prepared to play the difficult solo part. As the eyes, ears and conscience of an organisation, communicators have to be the critical friend to chief executives and chairs.
Individual musicians may think they know best, but must follow the conductor. Similarly, communications professionals must listen to their chief executive.
Finally, musicians have to pull all the notes on the score together and turn them into beautiful sounds - not very different from pulling together all the facts about a new service and turning them into a credible press release.
Which musicians make the best communicators? Pianists usually play on their own so are not used to being part of a team. String players have to be in vast sections to make their voices heard - most NHS communications offices are anything but vast. The woodwind is full of individuals who all take it in turns to pipe up, while the brass is loud and notorious for sneaking off to the pub when faced with a quiet bit in a concert.
What do I play? The French horn.

2021 Home Spending Continued at 'Dizzying Pace,' Report Finds
Scott Menable
DENVER — Not only did homeowners spend more on their homes in 2021, but they also completed more projects, according to a new report by Angi, the Denver-based firm that links homeowners with remodeling and other home-related professionals.
According to Angi's report annual 2021 State of Home Spending Report – entitled The Great Shift: How the Pandemic Put Homes in Focus – surveyed homeowners spent an average of $15,680 on home improvement, home maintenance and emergency repairs in 2021, and took on an average of 14.4 separate home projects.
"The growth in home spending we witnessed continued at a dizzying pace as people have continued spending more time in their homes," said Mischa Fisher, chief economist for Angi, whose annual report focuses on trends in home spending including drivers, obstacles, top projects and forecasts for the years ahead.
"2021 also presented homeowners with trillions of dollars of unexpected home equity and that wealth has been, at least in part, reinvested in the home through improvements, maintenance and repairs," Fisher observed. "Pre-pandemic, people were motivated to work on their homes for a return on investment or other financial incentives. Now, they're prioritizing projects that help their homes better suit their new normal," she added.
The most popular home project of 2021 was interior painting, completed by nearly one in three homeowners (32%), followed by bathroom remodels (28%) and installing smart home devices (27%). Other top projects include flooring (26.7%), landscaping (24.7%), exterior painting (24.2%), kitchen remodels (23.7%), fencing (23.1%), new roofing (19.6%) and new cabinets (19.5%).
The Angi report also asked homeowners what home projects they would do if given $10,000. While the overall top project was a living room upgrade, selected by 17% of homeowners, the different priorities of men and women were clear. Male homeowners prioritized living room upgrades (18%), outdoor space upgrades (17%) and bedroom upgrades (15%), while women were more interested in kitchen remodels (21%), bathroom upgrades (17%) and outdoor space upgrades (16%).
The State of Home Spending was based on Angi's analysis of surveys fielded to 6,400 consumers in early October, the company said.

Notre Dame baseball: Hearne holds Pitt bats in check in 1-0 win
Behind a dominant performance on the mound from sophomore Michael Hearne and a clutch RBI single from Ryan Bull, Notre Dame continued its strong late-season push with a 1-0 victory Friday night at Frank Eck Stadium.
The Irish (21-31, 8-21 ACC) have now won four of five at the Eck this year and clinched their third ACC series of the season including the second in a row.
They have also won three games in a row for the first time this season and earned shutout wins in back-to-back games for the first time since 2006.
Hearne (5-6) was dominant from the start as he hurled three perfect innings before giving up a single to lead off the fourth. He finished the day with five 1-2-3 innings and didn't allow more than one hit in an inning.
For the game, Hearne allowed three hits, struck out three and walked none, while not allowing a runner past first.
Offensively, Kyle Fiala led the Irish with three hits. Bull had a pair of singles, including one in the seventh that drove in Robert Youngdahl with the game's lone run.
Notre Dame will attempt to claim its first sweep when the teams close out the series Saturday at 1:05 p.m.

15 - On the evolutionary development of early hominid molar teeth and the Gondolin Paranthropus molar
from Part II - Hominin morphology through time: brains, bodies and teeth
By Kevin L. Kuykendall

In 1997 two isolated hominid molars were recovered from the Plio-Pleistocene site named Gondolin, in the North West Province, South Africa. One of these teeth (GDA-2) is a left mandibular M2 that was characterised as Paranthropus sp. indet. (Menter et al., 1999). A more specific taxonomic affiliation was not considered because a number of enigmatic morphological features of GDA-2 are normally attributed to 'hyper-robust' east African Paranthropus taxa, in particular its large crown size and the presence of two distal accessory (C6) cusps. This chapter presents a discussion of research in the evolutionary development of teeth, focusing on developmental processes relating to molar tooth crown size and cusp morphology. Details of the GDA-2 crown and cusp morphology are discussed in the context of enamel–dentine junction (EDJ) formation, enamel knots and related aspects of a tooth's developmental biology. This approach is useful in furthering our understanding of early hominid variation, adaptation and development.
