Previously on Survivor, the Davids voted off a Goliath, and then the Davids voted off a David. The David in question had become a Goliath wannabe, though. People were calling Carl the Godfather, and he wound up with a horse head in his bed.
The funniest part of the situation was that Angelina had flipped to the David alliance to get with the winning team, which immediately became the losing team. Angelina's one particular skill in this game is to make the worst possible move. And she does it over and over again.
Back at camp, Gabby is making sure everyone thinks she was the instigator of the vote. Nick does feel blindsided by what happened, and says that they're "So smart they're dumb," which is the title of the episode. He's pretty ticked off that they used all their advantages to get the numbers, but then they didn't even tell him about the Carl vote. If he gets the chance, Nick plans to go after Christian.
Probst is here already! And he brought family members with him! Not Probsts, but family members of the Survivors! Reward challenge is for LOVE.
Needless to say, the Gabby cry count is at one so far. Or two. Basically, she cries for the whole segment.
Most of the introductions are what you'd expect, though it reminds most of the players that their competitors are real people with real families. Christian has a girlfriend, by the way! She seems sweet! Gabby's mighty heart is breaking.
Winners will go for a barge barbeque with their family members. There are four pairs of Survivors – Christian/Gabby, Mike/Davie, Alison/Kara, and Angelina/Nick. They are tethered together. They first swim to shore, then dig some keys from a pit. The keys release a bag of balls. Angelina and Nick get their bag first, but they can't actually get them out of the bag. By the time they do, all four teams are trying to land their balls on top of a platform.
Davie lands one first, followed by Nick, and then Angelina. Whoa! Angelina. Shocker.
They're allowed to bring one other person, and they choose Davie. And hey hey! One more! Angelina makes a massive speech about how awesome Mike is and selects him. Did you know she went to Yale? Because she did.
Gabby, Kara, Alison, and Christian will go back to Camp Sadness.
But first! The reward group talks strategy. All four of them – Angelina, Nick, Mike, and Davie – seem to agree that they'd be a great final four. Of course, we know that Mike says that about everyone. And Davie is feeling a little bit isolated since he knows the other three had some tribal time together after the mix-up earlier in the season.
Now that she's seen Christian with his girlfriend, Gabby is feeling like Christian has to go. She doesn't want to be perceived as his "sidekick," so she tells Alison and Kara that Christian is the target. Kara is all for it, and Alison presumably agrees as well.
Christian will totally win immunity here in about 10 minutes.
In fact, with Probst already appearing, we're already right into it. Survivors have to balance a pole. If they lose their control, a ball falls and pulls down a bucket, which dumps water on them.
Mike is out first, and then when Probst has them shift their foot behind them, Gabby loses it as well. Christian has an itchy head, but stays steady anyway. Alison is totally twitching, Angelina is sweating, and Nick is scratching his nose. The twitching leads to first doom, followed by flop sweat Angelina.
Davie, Kara, Christian, and Nick remain. Now, they have to move their front foot behind their back foot, outing more pressure on their arm. Angelina tries to help Nick, telling him where to hold his arm. Christian is fully aware of the Nick support, but he starts shaking like crazy. Even so, Nick loses his bucket.
After a couple more minutes, Christian steps off. Okay, so he didn't win. Davie has a bug on his face, shakes his head to get it off, and drops his bucket. Kara wins immunity. Several of her Goliath counterparts will be happy to see it.
So, it's time to play "It's Anyone But Christian." Problem is, Christian knows that, too. He has an Immunity Idol, and he picked up a lot of signals during the challenges. If he doesn't play it, it will be exceedingly surprising.
He goes to Christian and tells him about Gabby's plan. Obviously, Christian can barely believe it, but after he asks which way Nick is leaning, Davie reveals all. Christian apologizes profusely to Nick, which means Nick is going to LIE. He tells Christian whatever he wants to hear. They've got to convince him NOT to play his idol. We tend to think Christian's instincts are good enough to know whether he needs to play it, but we're late into the game. People's mental states get funny.
Tribal Council brings on the subject of hurt feelings. Nick has hurt feelings, but says that he and Christian have mended their fences. Gabby is always hurt about something, and says that she needs comforting from people all the time.
Angelina just wants to get rid of someone she doesn't see going to the end with. Nick talks a little more strategically, remembering that if you send someone to the jury, they might have to want to vote for you.
When Jeff asks if anyone wants to play their hidden Immunity Idol, Christian asks for a moment. He looks everyone in the face, and then says yes. He's playing it. Genius.
Jeff reads the votes, proving Christian to be ABSOLUTELY right. The first five are for Christian. They don't count. "How'd you get that big brain?" Gabby asks.
Next, one vote for Alison. "I'm so sorry, Alison," says Gabby. She should be. Final two votes are Gabby. Mike White! You evil genius! That was the most brilliant suggestion and it made PERFECT sense. The jury is delighted.
"Sorry, Christian! I love you!" she shouts as she leaves.


They were all talking about the abortion pill, mifepristone — long known by its French name, RU-486 — which was supposed to revolutionize abortion in America by greatly increasing the number of physicians who would provide abortions and broadening the options available to women wanting to end a pregnancy.
But in the year since mifepristone was approved by the Food and Drug Administration and made available commercially as Mifeprex by Danco Laboratories, the reality has not lived up to the hype.
While abortion clinics have been relatively quick to offer the "early option pill," as Danco tags it, gynecologists and general practice physicians have lagged behind.
A tortuous FDA approval battle and restrictive labeling have made mifepristone expensive to offer to patients. Meanwhile, state laws put a burden on doctors seeking to provide medical abortions and open them up to harassment by anti-abortion activists.
A 1998 Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation study reported that 45 percent of family practitioners polled said they would be "very" or "somewhat" interested in offering mifepristone once it was approved and available.
However, a new Kaiser survey released in September showed that only 6 percent of gynecologists and 1 percent of general practice physicians were offering the drug. An additional 16 percent of gynecologists and 7 percent of general practitioners said they were "likely" to begin offering the drug next year.
"Expectations were high," Fitzsimmons said. "What happened was that for many years [mifepristone] was a political issue. So pro-choice activists were real excited about it. They had visions of this being something that would be almost a social revolution.
According to the Kaiser survey of 790 randomly sampled physicians, 40 percent of gynecologists and 37 percent of general practitioners said that they would not offer mifepristone because they personally opposed abortion.
Though mifepristone has been available in France since 1988 and according to the Population Council has been used safely by more than 620,000 European women, Fitzsimmons argues that American doctors are still becoming familiar with the drug.
Fitzsimmons said that half of the 150 independent abortion clinics which belong to NCAP are offering the drug. Half of the National Abortion Federation's members — about 200 healthcare facilities — are offering mifepristone.
And through September 2001, 5,000 women had medical abortions through Planned Parenthood clinics. There are about 1.2 million abortions in the United States annually, according to the Kaiser Foundation.
Nonprofit clinics like Planned Parenthood and clinics affiliated with the National Abortion Federation make up 65 percent of sales of Mifeprex, according to Danco, a private company which would not release exact sales figures.
Private practices and independent clinics together account for the other 35 percent of sales, said Pamela Long, a Danco media relations officer. Long said there was no breakdown of how much of that 35 percent was accounted for by clinics and how much by private physicians.
This is precisely what Chicago's Planned Parenthood Near North Health Center, 1200 N. LaSalle St., has done.
"We have been preparing for approval for over a year," explained Vasyl Markus, Planned Parenthood Chicago Area's vice president for public policy.
The Near North Health Center took part in one of the many training sessions offered by the National Abortion Federation, which has trained more than 3,400 healthcare professionals in how to provide mifepristone counseling to women.
Boonstra also said that lack of demand for the early option pill accounted for its limited availability. Indeed, it was the reason most offered by doctors for not offering the pill.
This lack of demand comes in spite of a six-month, $2 million National Abortion Federation advertising campaign in magazines popular among women.
The group's executive director, Vicki Saporta, claimed that 70 percent of women between 18 and 49 were exposed to the ads, which ran in magazines like People, Glamour, Self, Fitness and Essence.
In the months following the ad campaign, the group's hotline volume increased from 2,000 to 4,000 calls, and 40 percent of callers were inquiring about medical abortion.
Meanwhile, Danco has targeted thousands of healthcare providers in a huge direct-mail campaign to let them know about Mifeprex and how to provide it.
While Danco would not release information about how much was spent on the direct-mail campaign and other efforts such as medical conferences and advertising in medical journals, a September 2000 Wall Street Journal story year sheds some light on things.
Journal reporter Rachel Zimmerman obtained two internal Danco documents which showed that the firm had raised about $34.7 million — including $23.4 million from its nonprofit partner, the Population Council — through March 2000.
This included a $10 million loan from the David and Lucille Packard Foundation and a grant from the Buffett Foundation. In addition, the company hoped to raise $2 million to operate through the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.
'Early option' arrives late in U.S.
In spite of all this investment by Danco and abortion-rights supporters, mifepristone has not yet had the impact many thought it would have. First, let's retrace why abortion-rights supporters struggled for so long to get mifepristone approved.
Though the Supreme Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade gave American women a constitutional right to choose to end a pregnancy, exercising that right has never been easy.
The number of surgical abortion providers has been steadily declining due to harassment from anti-abortionists, less emphasis on teaching abortion in medical schools, and state laws which make providing abortions a costly and dangerous endeavor by requiring that abortion providers give certain information about their practices to the government and comply with regulations no other doctors must deal with.
In Illinois, for example, 90 percent of counties have no abortion provider, and between 1992 and 1996, the number of providers fell from 47 to 38, a 19 percent loss.
A July 11, 1999 New York Times article reported that 59 percent of abortion doctors are at least 65 years old. Most abortion doctors are trained in obstetrics and gynecology, and the percentage of ob-gyns willing to perform dropped from 42 percent in 1983 to 33 percent in 1995.
Furthermore, fewer and fewer hospital residency programs are teaching surgical abortions. For these reasons, nine out of 10 abortions are performed not in private physician's offices but in clinics.
And the cost and inconvenience of operating clinics is foreboding. They remain a flashpoint in the ongoing debate over the speech rights of anti-abortionists outside and their isolation from the mainstream medical community increases costs and discourages new doctors from entering the field.
Mifepristone, which was first synthesized by researchers at the French pharmaceutical firm Roussel Uclaf in 1980, works by blocking progesterone, a naturally produced hormone that prepares the lining of the uterus for a fertilized egg and helps maintain pregnancy.
Without progesterone, the lining of the uterus softens, breaks down and bleeding begins. This usually occurs about two days after the drug is taken, and it is followed by another drug, misoprostol, which causes the uterus to contract, completing the abortion process.
Mifeprex is called the early option pill because unlike surgical abortion, it can be used earlier in the pregnancy. It can be taken anytime up to seven weeks, and of course the procedure is non-invasive.
Women who have had medical abortions rate their experiences more favorably than women who have had surgical abortions, according to a recent study which appeared in the June 2000 issue of American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Women who had medical abortions reported less anxiety during the process, which can be completed at home. And while only 58 percent of women having surgical abortions said they would choose the method again, 91 percent of women who chose medical abortions said they would choose the same procedure.
By 1988, mifepristone was available in France, but testing and even importation of the drug into the United States was banned.
Sweden and the United Kingdom approved mifepristone for use in the early '90s, and in 1992 the New England Journal of Medicine concluded that mifepristone was a safe and effective contraceptive. Yet approval was still eight years away.
Only after President Bill Clinton was elected did FDA testing begin in earnest. After a series of attempts by anti-abortion activists to severely limit the availability of mifepristone, the FDA finally approved the drug on Sept. 28, 2000. Danco began shipping Mifeprex to providers in late November.
But abortion-rights supporters didn't get everything they wanted from the FDA. First, the FDA required that a doctor, or someone directly supervised by a doctor, administer the drug.
Planned Parenthood Chicago's Markus said that this would not prevent a nurse from administering the drug, but the nurse would have to be in the same office as a physician. So, for example, the Near North Health Center is the only office in Chicago capable of providing such service, and so it is the only Planned Parenthood clinic which offers mifepristone.
Also, three doctor's visits are required: the first to be counseled and take the mifepristone, the second to come back two days later to take the misoprostol, and a third visit 14 days later to make sure that the pregnancy has been terminated.
"According to the literature I've read, it's not medically necessary for the woman to come back in for the second treatment," claimed Bonnie Scott Jones, staff attorney at the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy in New York City.
Others see the requirements as part of an attempt by anti-abortionists to make medical abortions more expensive to provide.
"All of that is just a deliberate attempt to drive up the cost," said Glen Whitman, an associate professor of economics at California State University, Northridge.
Cost should definitely not be overlooked as an explanatory factor in mifepristone's disappointing popularity thus far. More than half of women seeking abortions are under the age of 24, and mifepristone costs about $75 to $100 more than surgical abortions, which usually cost $325 to $350, according to the Guttmacher Institute.
While many clinics are charging the same for surgical and medical abortions so as to give women as much choice as possible, users of the abortion pill still bear the higher cost.
Also, many young or low-income women do not have schedules flexible enough to allow them not one but three visits to oftentimes inconvenient clinic locations, pointed out Toni Bond, executive director of the Chicago Abortion Fund. CAF has not yet funded any medical abortions for its clients because of the cost, Bond said.
Danco's Long and O'Neill both said that Mifeprex's cost was "within range" of surgical abortions. It was designed to be "affordable to women while helping us recoup the cost of bringing the drug to market," O'Neill said.
And there is the culprit, said economist Whitman. "RU-486 is an extreme example of what happens all the time," he said. "The protracted FDA approval process substantially increases the cost of going through the research and development process.
FDA reforms allowing for more free choice for patients to risk possible side effects of drugs in order to get experimental treatments or, in the case of RU-486, end a pregnancy without invasive surgery, would be an improvement, according to Dale Gieringer, California coordinator for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. Gieringer has written extensively about FDA investigational regulation of pain medications.
The high price of mifepristone is "caused by the FDA regulatory system where you have a government agency that dictates what is safe and effective for everybody," Gieringer said.
"Unfortunately, these are subjective concepts. Most people choose what is 'safe' and 'effective' according to their own values. The normal way a free society deals with this is to place these decisions in a market context.
Finally, there are intense hurdles at the state level which make becoming an abortion provider a tremendous sacrifice for any gynecologist or general practitioner, according to CRLP attorney Bonnie Scott Jones.
"Let me put it this way: It's much more difficult to be an abortion provider than to be in regular practice," Scott Jones said. In regular practice, as long as a doctor has a license and performs a quality standard of care, he or she will be left alone by the government.
"But if you're an abortion provider," Scott Jones said, "you're probably going to have to register with the state." Providers may have to perform tests that aren't required. For example, South Carolina requires that a Gonorrhea test be performed before the abortion procedure is done.
Regulations determining the width of doors, the flow of air and other trivia may now apply to an abortion provider — regulations which do not apply to other doctors, Scott Jones said.
An especially harmful requirement is that a registered nurse be hired on at a first trimester abortion facility. This is because RNs are in high demand and often will opt to work at hospitals where pay and benefits are better.
Scott Jones said that all laws which apply to surgical abortion providers would also apply to medical abortion providers. So even if a gynecologist only wanted to offer medical abortion to current clients, he or she would still have to register with the state and comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
The most ominous of these, Scott Jones argued, were those requiring abortion providers to give the government information about themselves and their employees. This information is often obtainable through Freedom of Information Act requests.
Ultimately, the legal infrastructure is hostile toward abortion providers, Scott Jones said, and a different type of abortion is not going to make much of a dent in that.
"There was the implication that a lot of doctors were going to start offering the pill," NCAP's Fitzsimmons said of the hopes abortion-rights supporters had for mifepristone. "In many ways, that minimizes what this is about.


When the turkey feast has come to an end and the family is lying on the floor, pants unzipped in tryptophan heaven, there is only one thing on my mind.
What the hell am I going to do with all this leftover food?
Sandwiches are a given. But that loaf of sliced sourdough doesn't last long, and I am left with a large platter of what looks like road-kill.
This is a wicked easy recipe, and because it is made with turkey, it is a once a year treat. The dumplings are optional, but you should try them if you've never had them. They are nothing but loose, wet biscuit dough simmered on top of the soup at the last minute. Simple, but yummy.
In a large stock pot, cover turkey carcass with cold water and bring to a boil. Add vegetable scraps if you have them. At the boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for at least 1 hour to extract flavor and nutrients from the bones. Strain liquid into a soup pot and chill. Pick all remaining meat off the carcass and reserve. This step can be done a day or two in advance. Before making soup, skim chilled fat off the top of cool stock.
Heat oil in a large soup pot over high heat. Add onions, carrot, celery, mushrooms, and herbs, and cook, stirring, until slightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add stock, potatoes, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add turkey, peas, broccoli, and season with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cheese, salt, and set aside. Combine egg and milk, then add it to the dry and using a fork, mix swiftly into a dough. Drop dough on top of the simmering soup, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Serve when dumplings are firm.

A Prominent Virologist Warns COVID Pill Could Unleash Dangerous Mutants + More
The Defender's COVID NewsWatch provides a roundup of the latest headlines related to the SARS CoV-2 virus, including its origins and COVID vaccines.
Children's Health Defense Team
A Prominent Virologist Warns COVID Pill Could Unleash Dangerous Mutants. Others See Little Cause for Alarm
Science reported:
The first oral antiviral for treating COVID-19, Merck & Co.'s molnupiravir, received approval from the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency on Nov. 4. But the approval, for people at high risk of severe disease, comes as a prominent virologist has suggested using molnupiravir could do far more harm than good, potentially unleashing new, deadlier variants of SARS-CoV-2.
Molnupiravir works by interfering with viral replication, littering the viral genome with mutations until the virus can no longer reproduce. The drug's ability to mutate RNA has raised persistent fears that it could induce mutations in a patient's own genetic material, possibly causing cancer or birth defects; studies so far have not borne out those fears.
Now, William Haseltine, a virologist formerly at Harvard University known for his work on HIV and the human genome project, suggests that by inducing viral mutations, molnupiravir could spur the rise of new viral variants more dangerous than today's.
The School That Pioneered Polio Shots Will Give Kids the COVID Vaccine, Too
The Washington Post reported:
Through the long tunnel of time, Jackie French Lonergan still remembers the day very clearly. It was April 26, 1954, and she was a second-grader at Franklin Sherman Elementary in McLean, Va., a little girl with a brown pageboy haircut and a gap-toothed grin.
Lonergan's parents had quickly signed the permission slip, worrying little or not at all about the fact that their daughter and 81 other second-graders at Franklin Sherman were about to be guinea pigs — the very first children in the country to receive the polio vaccine as part of a massive national trial to test the immunization before offering it to the general public.
On Monday, Franklin Sherman will reprise its historic role as a vaccination site for Fairfax County schoolchildren. And first lady Jill Biden is scheduled to be on hand at the elementary school as another mass pediatric vaccination campaign — this one aimed at protecting children ages 5 to 11 from COVID-19 — gets underway.
Feds Urge Schools to Provide COVID Shots, Info for Kids
Associated Press reported:
The Biden administration is encouraging local school districts to host clinics to provide COVID-19 vaccinations to kids — and information to parents on the benefits of the shots — as the White House looks to speedily provide vaccines to those ages 5 to 11.
First lady Jill Biden and Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy are set to visit the Franklin Sherman Elementary School in McLean, Virginia, on Monday to launch a nationwide campaign to promote child vaccinations. The school was the first to administer the polio vaccine in 1954.
The visit comes just days after federal regulators recommended the COVID-19 vaccine for the age group. The White House says Biden will visit pediatric vaccination clinics across the country over the coming weeks to encourage the shots.
Minnesota Tops 500K Boosters as COVID Breakthrough Infections Rise
Star Tribune reported:
More than a half-million booster doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been administered in Minnesota to counter the latest Delta wave of the pandemic and waning immunity among people who received shots months ago.
The Minnesota Department of Health in the past week identified another 7,821 breakthrough coronavirus infections among more than 3.2 million fully vaccinated people in the state, including another 111 people who died of COVID-19 despite their immunizations.
The state's breakthrough total as of Monday reached 64,844 infections — more than 2% of the fully vaccinated population — and 483 COVID-19 deaths.
Pfizer Expected to Seek Authorization for Coronavirus Vaccine Booster for People Age 18 and Older
CNN Health reported:
Pfizer is expected to seek US Food and Drug Administration emergency use authorization for a coronavirus vaccine booster shot for people 18 and older, a Biden administration official said Monday. The request could come as soon as this week, although the date could shift.
Authorization would bring the country one step closer to President Joe Biden's mid-August prediction that boosters would be available for all adults in the United States.
In U.S., Kids' COVID Vaccine Pokes Holes in Relationships of Separated Couples
The Times of Israel reported:
Michael Thompson, a 47-year-old executive recruiter from Illinois, expects his former wife to take him to court over vaccinating their two children against COVID-19.
He doesn't trust the vaccine for children, but she wants to follow U.S. health guidelines and have their 8-year-old and 10-year-old inoculated.
"I'm vaccinated, but I don't feel the need for my kids to get the vaccine until it's been proven more," Thompson told AFP. "We don't know the long-term effects for kids."
Regeneron's COVID Antibody Drug Shows Protection for up to 8 Months
Reuters reported:
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc (REGN.O) said on Monday a single dose of its antibody cocktail reduced the risk of contracting COVID-19 by 81.6% in a late-stage trial, in the two to eight months period following the drug's administration.
The antibody therapy, REGEN-COV, is currently authorized in the United States to treat people with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 and for prevention of infection in those exposed to infected individuals, and others at high risk of exposure in settings such as nursing homes or prisons. read more
Merck Ahead of Pfizer in EU Talks on COVID Pills — EU Source
The European Union is negotiating with Merck & Co (MRK.N) and Pfizer (PFE.N) over possible contracts to supply their experimental COVID-19 drugs, an EU official told Reuters, adding that talks with Merck were more advanced.
Talks with Merck were more advanced because it has already begun submitting data to the European Union's drugs regulator, the official added.
Pfizer has yet to submit any data because preliminary results of its trials were published only last week, a month after Merck's first results.
How Protein-Based COVID Vaccines Could Change the Pandemic
Nature reported:
Unlike the relatively new technologies that the mRNA and viral-vector COVID-19 shots are based on, protein vaccines have been used for decades to protect people from hepatitis, shingles and other viral infections.
To elicit a protective immune response, these shots deliver proteins, along with immunity-stimulating adjuvants, directly to a person's cells, rather than a fragment of genetic code that the cells must read to synthesize the proteins themselves.
After months of quality-control setbacks and manufacturing delays, executives at biotechnology firm Novavax in Gaithersburg, Maryland, say they are poised to submit the company's long-awaited application for their protein-based vaccine to U.S. drug regulators before the end of the year.
COVID Linked to Heart Inflammation in Cats and Dogs
NBC News reported:
Late last year, as the coronavirus surged across the United Kingdom, Dr. Luca Ferasin and his colleagues started noticing an uptick in patients with symptoms of myocarditis, or heart inflammation.
But these patients weren't humans; they were cats and dogs.
"These were dogs and cats that were depressed, lethargic, they lost appetite," said Ferasin, a veterinary cardiologist at The Ralph Veterinary Referral Centre in Buckinghamshire, England. "And they had either difficulty breathing because of accumulation of fluid in their lungs due to the heart disease, or they were fainting because of an underlying abnormal heart rhythm."

Handmade, Limited, New. The Next Swans Album… in YOUR Hands
Swans handmade 2xLive CD, The Gate, Limited to 2500 Copies! Available now.
Money where the mouth is, etc.
Rather than whinge about the parlous conservatism of the music industry and its ever more wheedling approach to what is, essentially, entertainment's 1%, Swans have chosen to eschew the world of A&R men and wardrobe budgets. Instead, the future for the band's outsider noise and insider musical elitism rests in YOUR hands.
A NOTE FROM MICHAEL GIRA / SWANS:
We are in the process and making and assembling an edition of 2500 handmade live 2xCD packages and we are accepting orders now at younggodrecords.com. This is part of a tiered system whereby our dedicated listeners can voice their support for the upcoming new Swans album by choosing one or all of several options presented in order to aid us in our journey towards discovering and subsequently nourishing ourselves (and those who might care to travel with us) within a fresh new constellation of sound. Here below is what I've written in a newsletter that has been sent to our friends and supporters:
"…Hello There, Michael Gira of Swans here. I thought that, since you signed up to our newsletter, you might be interested to know that the 2xCD live SWANS handmade fundraiser event/portal of support for our (in)glorious efforts is now up at this link http://younggodrecords.com/products/the-gate. The live 2xCD is called The Gate. I believe it captures the live SWANS experience effectively.
The woodblock print is by Nicole Boitos and I draw all over each one and sign it as well. Each one is unique. They're numbered 1 – 2500 and won't be available elsewhere… The upcoming album (as yet untitled) will be the last with this core group (comprised of my beautiful friends Norman, Christoph, Thor, Phil, Christopher and myself) and the subsequent (marathon) tour in 2016 will be our last together.
As such, I am determined to make this album the most fully realized, cataclysmic, subtle and nuanced, heartfelt and inspirational, truthful and luminous recording that we have yet undertaken. As always, your valued (and quite necessary) support in this perhaps quixotic endeavor is sincerely appreciated. I love you! I thank you!…"
The rapport this group has developed over the last 5 plus years is a gift for which I will remain forever grateful. In live performance it has sometimes lead us to unleash a sound that is not only greater than us but seems to swallow us into its own immanent consciousness and will. It feels great! Oftentimes I've spoken to people in the audience after a show and they've expressed similar notions.
My sentiment at these moments is that I'm delighted to have been of service, but can't really take responsibility for it, since it's beyond us too. So, following the final 2016 touring cycle with the wonderful cadre of talented individuals mentioned above, I will continue to record and perform (though perhaps less frequently) using the name Swans, on a project-by-project basis. Acutely aware that the psychic connection with which we've been blessed is irreplaceable, I will instead pursue the ever-elusive pathway alluded to above through other means. You can read more about this and other ephemera at this link.

The quality of our lives is tied to how much efforts we put in becoming a person of value. The level of progress we will make in life is dependent on the work we put in our personal growth and development. Life will always yes to that person who consistently works on themselves to become better. They will always be a person of value.
One of the things required of a leader in life is that they take steps every day to better themselves. This may be the learning of new skills, gaining knowledge, building new habits or dropping old once. This is a very challenging process as it requires diligence and consistency on a daily basis. As a leader, one must seek for possible ways possible to add value to themselves. This is a process that is usually challenging. There will obstacles to the process of personal development. But when you stay committed to it, the outcome is always rewarding. For instance, a man who decides to lose weight and build muscles will not find it comfortable. There will be days when he will not feel like going to the gym. But if he stays consistent and diligent to the cause, his body will reflect his efforts in no mind. This is what happens to us when we engage in self-development, it will in the outcomes of our lives.
Self-development exposes your obstacles and challenges that breeds self-confidence in you when they are overcome. Self-development will expose you to self-knowledge and understanding of the process of success. This is because, the more engaged you are in any self-development process, the more the character and behavior of success formed in you. People who develop themselves will be the major players in the stage of life. But those who fail to grow while others are putting the effort to grow, they will stand by the road side of life and watching others who are making the efforts succeed.
Dialogue: This is the first stage of self-development, which is to dialogue with yourself in an honest way and identify the elements of your strength and weakness; and set a plan for what you want to do with yourself when it comes to growth.
Consultation: This involves consulting experts, coaches, mentors or counseltors who would help provide you with guidance, coaching, mentoring, assistance or expert opinions.
Training and mentoring: This involve getting past just receiving guidance or assistance. At this stage, you need to get the proper training through the help of your coach or mentor who would guide you through your journey.
Evaluation: You would need at this point to evaluate yourself after each stage, after each action.
Your knowledge about yourself: As you are guided by your coach or mentor, you would begin to walk the path of self-discovery. You would have to apply yourself to know more about yourself discover your abilities and work hard to develop them constantly.
Positive thinking: Every process of growth requires that you think positively. You cannot pull through the process of growth of you are not thinking positively through challenges and obstacles. Positive thinking positions you to make your ambition become achievable and a tangible reality.
Conduct wisely: One thing self- development process will do for you is to help you take advantage of all positive experiences as much as possible. It will help you conduct yourself wisely through all experiences.
Tackling difficult things: The more you face challenges and overcome them, the more you gain confidence in yourself. A man who sets a goal to lose weight will naturally feel more confident about their body. This stage helps to restoring self-confidence.
To practice life positively in all areas of daily activity.
Avoid negative references, such as (I cannot…), (I will not…), and replace them with positive ones such as : (I can ..) or (I will ..), which helps you to take firm decisions, no matter how difficult.
Fight the illusion, debauchery, and resist it as much as possible.
Do not transfer your experience of failure and frustration to others. Resist the feeling that calls for laziness that wants to give birth to convenience and comfort.
Time management, good use and investment of time.
Independent decision-making as much as possible.
Avoid self-scolding, but constantly scold your conscience.
Believe in God and use prayer as a tool to reinforce motivation for success. It will also help you forget the past and look towards the future. Frequent attention to the past slows down the work progress, especially what was a painful experience.
It is required of every leader to develop themselves constantly. It breeds competence and self-confidence. It is also important to see every new task given to us as an opportunity to learn new skills. Applying ourselves to produce an excellent outcome, rather than avoiding such challenge is the way of a great leader. This is the way of lifting yourself from nay to yay.


with project: John Jory Corp.
The Cottonwood Church project is a fine example of blending various materials and systems together into one large space to create an exciting and leasing worship environment. Both ceiling and wall systems are designed and installed in such a way as to create look of much larger components.
The renovation of the towers is a prime example of a successful collaboration among not only the installation crews on the job site, but also the manufacturers of all the various types of custom materials required. Close communication and coordination with all parties resulted in a very successful project.
The two identical 20-story, triangular shaped towers seemed to have new and exciting challenges every day.
This project illustrates artistic vision and functional design of specialty materials brought together by architectural imagination and skilled, professional craftsmanship.
This project was considered a "crown jewel" facility for the Union Pacific Railroad. As a result, a keen and critical eye for quality of material and craftsmanship was constantly maintained.
The renovation of Denver's new $550 million pediatric hospital was designed to be filled with light, color, imagination and confidence. A dynamic triangular layout was conceived, the geometry starting from the outside gardens and accented inside with bays marked off by metal light and diffuser troughs.
Tight physical tolerances were matched by the tight collaborative tolerances needed to bring different manufacturers together to create one unified and integrated ceiling.

A couple of days ago you said you were missing some quality Daft Punk tracks. And in all justice as the masked Kings of electro pop, the French duo Daft Punk were behind some pretty innovative, catchy electro tunes.
But here's what I just discovered and couldn't keep for myself: Daft Punk collaborated with Pharrell on a track called 'Get Lucky'. The versions I found on YouTube count over 1Million views each (I located at least 3 versions of the Radio Edit) while the full video edit you'll see after the jump is on the rise, but still relatively low profile. After listening to it, you may feel like replaying it, though.
It just has that old school vibe and the great Pharrell Williams sparkle. Also participating in the project is Nile Rodgers that you can see grooving, playing a pretty special guitar, disco edition. It's the dancing, disco tune you'd expect from Daft Punk with a special flavor twist from Pharrell. I do hope you'll enjoy this one as an electro pop break and as a Daft Punk special (do expect to see Pharrell in a Saint Laurent ad soon…).
I love the fun funkiness of this jam!

Filed Under: "Attack On Titan" Source: YouTube
Attack on Titan is coming to an end in both the manga and the anime, so it comes as no surprise to see big promotions of the title in several parts of the world. The latest area to get a taste of it all is New York City with the massive Colossal Titan art.
The firm known as Colossal Media took to the task of painting the Colossal Titan on a wall looking over citizens of the city. The design is impressive because it gives the impression that the Titan is attempting to escape through the walls.
If you're interested, just watch the video below to get a view of the Colossal Titan painting, and hear what commuters have to say. As you might guess, people are loving it quite a lot, and that's a good thing for the team as they look to end the series on a high note.
The question right now, is what do you think about the mural in New York City? Is it any good, or is it just a basic thing? Decide.

Q: Spotfire: calculated column based on column in another table
*

*Is it possible to insert a calculated column (table 1) based on another table (table 2)? Prefer to do it this way instead of joining table because the data on table 2 may keep on changing.

*Calc column is derived by taking the f1 value on Table 2 based on matching value from col X on Table 1 to the nearest p1 value of Table 2. If it is possible to do a calculated column based on another table, how do I create an expression for it?

A: @p.ysl - In order to add column 'f1' to Table 1, Columns 'x' from Table 1 and 'p1' from Table 2 should be matched. As the format of these columns are not the same (one is real and the other is integer), we cannot match them. Though we do, 'f1' added to Table 1 will be blank as the values don't match.
You can add a calculated column to Table 1 with round values. example: 29.23 will be 29 in this column and then add column 'f1' from Table 2 by comparing calculated column 'round(x,0)' from Table 1 and column 'p1' from Table 2. But, the issue is calculated columns cannot be used for relating tables.
One solution is to freeze this calculated column in order to use it for matching columns. But, when we freeze the column, the entire table will be embedded and data cannot be refreshed.
However, you can accomplish this with an R-script.
Go to Register data function under Tools menu:

*

*In the script section, add below script.
t3 <- cbind(t1, round(t1,0))

*In Input Parameters section, define what 't1' is.

*

*In Output parameters section, define what t3 is. In this case, the result will be stored as a table.

*

*Now, RUN the script

*

*It will prompt you to assign input and output parameters. Input - assign column 'x' from table 1.

*

*Output parameter will be a new table.

Note: You can save this data function if you want to.
Table 't3' is created. Now, you can add 'f1' column from Table 2 to this table by matching 'column2' and 'p1' as shown in the screenshot below.

To ensure this runs dynamically, Table 1 and Table 2 can be embedded but t3 table should be linked to source so that when new data gets added to Table 1/ Table 2, t3 will be updated automatically.
Hope this helps!
