Findings released on November 25, 2014 in the Journal of Neurotrauma indicate that the presence of a blood protein known as SNTF shortly after a sports-related concussion can predict the severity of post-concussion symptoms in professional athletes.
The study was conducted in collaboration with the University of Gothenburg in Sweden. The subjects of the study were 288 players in the top Swedish professional ice hockey league. Each of the 28 players who suffered concussions during the first half of the 2012-2013 season received blood tests and were evaluated daily for symptom resolution. In players who had persistent post-concussion symptoms the researchers found elevated blood SNTF levels compared to players who were not concussed and players whose symptoms resolved within a few days. These elevated SNTF concentrations were evident from one hour up to 144 hours following the concussion. It is understood that SNTF is produced under conditions where nerve cells are traumatized and begin to die.
The authors of the study note that in other recent studies, elevated SNTF levels were found in cases where white matter abnormalities were detected using diffusion tensor imaging. Taken together, these studies support the hypothesis that SNTF is a biomarker for the diffuse axonal injury underlying brain functional impairment after a mild traumatic brain injury.
This study also suggests that a blood test may provide valuable neurobiological information when making a decision about whether to return an athlete to play.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Speedie from Aquasana a very nice product. Fits perfect under my kitchen counter.Faucet looks great.Water taste wonderful ,no odor.
Our under counter drinking water filter systems are very easy to install, and it only takes a few minutes to do; no plumber is necessary. If you have any questions or need assistance, our technical support representatives at 866-662-6885 can walk you through the installation process.
We recommend replacing the cartridges after six months or the specified gallon capacity to prevent the growth of bacteria in the system. The AQ-5100 Single Stage has a capacity of 200 gallons, the AQ-5200 Two-Stage has a capacity of 500 gallons, the AQ-5300 Three-Stage has a capacity of 600 gallons and the AQ-5300+ Three-Stage has a capacity of 800 gallons. Replacement filters cost $29.99 for the AQ-5100, $59.99 for the AQ-5200, $64.99 for the AQ-5300 or $79.99 for the AQ-5300+, but you can save 15%, get free shipping, and extend your product warranty by signing up for our no-contract auto-ship filter replacement program, Water for Life. The performance indicating device on the AQ-5200, AQ-5300 and AQ-5300+ systems will sound a beeping alarm and flash red when it is time to change your cartridges. The AQ-5300+ also contains Bluetooth connectivity so you can download our iPhone App and get alerts for when it is time to change your cartridges and even order new replacements straight from the App!
We have designed this system to minimize the environmental impact of our replacement elements, which are over 95% biodegradable carbon. Our company will recycle the filters for you, but we do not cover the shipping cost to return the filters back to us. In reality, the environmental impact of shipping the filters back to us outweighs the good of recycling. To recycle the drinking filters yourself, remove the ends of the filters, recycle the plastic parts (which are appropriately numbered) and put the carbon either in your compost pile or garden (carbon is good for plant life), or just throw it out (since the carbon degrades quickly, and is a positive component in a landfill).
I'm a renter, so I can't drill or modify the plumbing. What should I do?
To install an under counter system, you can remove the existing sprayer or soap dispenser on your sink and install our faucet in its place. This option will not damage or permanently modify your plumbing. When you move out, you can easily remove the system and reconnect your plumbing back to normal. If you do not have an existing hole in your sink from a sprayer or soap dispenser, we also have a countertop drinking water filter that conveniently screws on to most kitchen faucets.
What is the size of the brass T-fitting for under counter and premium under counter unit?
The most common size is 3/8" which originally comes with the system purchase. In rare cases some customers may need a 1/2" T-fitting which is sold separately and is available for purchase through technical support.
What size hole do I need in my sink for the under counter and premium under counter systems?
The faucet that is included with our systems requires a 1/2" hole.
What is the difference between the single-stage, 2-stage and 3-stage under counter systems?
All of our drinking water systems use the same Aquasana Claryum® filtration technology. The single-stage system lasts 6 months or 200 gallons before the cartridges need to be replaced. Our 2- Stage system has a higher capacity than the single-stage, giving you 6 months or 500 gallons of clean, filtered water. The 3-Stage system includes a 20 micron pre-filter before the two Aquasana Claryum® filters. This pre-filter increases the capacity of the system from 500 gallons to 600 gallons. In addition, it improves flow rate in high sediment areas. The 3-Stage Max Flow system adds even more capacity to 800 gallons, a 44% increase in flow rate at .72 gallons per minute and Bluetooth connectivity for filter tracking.
I have an existing side faucet from a previous system. Can I use that with my new Aquasana water filter?
We recommend that you use the faucet provided. We have extensively tested the system with the faucets included. The faucets are NSF Certified to have no lead content. In addition, they will not impart any unwanted chemicals into your water. If you choose to use another faucet, we recommend that you have a plumber install the system to ensure no leakage occurs. We also recommend that you install an NSF Certified faucet to ensure the health benefits of your new Aquasana water filter.
Will the original hot/cold water faucet work as normal with the addition of the 2-stage water filter to the cold water line?
We have well water from private well.  Does under sink filter also work using well water.
The water comes into your sink it can be connected to the well water and filtered.
I understand this system reduces chlorine. Does it reduce fluoride?
We have had the two stage under counter filter for a few years. Recently I hear a ticking clock type noise. What is this from, and can I correct it?
Just installed a new 5200 2-stage filter. Pulled the battery tape out and now the filter is ticking and the red light is flashing. Called CS and they had me reverse the battery and put it back in. Solved the problem. CS also advised that in the future if we hear the ticking again it could mean a low battery.
Can this filter system also be used to supply water to a refrigerator ice maker.
I have under then counter AQ5200 - I accidentally inserted the the supply line into the out port, got stock and damaged the sleeve. How can I get a replacement?
What is the smallest size particle ( in microns) that the two-stage under-counter filter will remove?

Фашизм (, от  — пучок, связка, объединение) — крайне правая  идеология, политическое движение и социальная практика, которые характеризуются следующими признаками и чертами: отрицание демократии и её экономической и политической практики; создание режима, основанного на принципах авторитарно-корпоративной государственности, однопартийности; подавление противников государства и любых форм инакомыслия; создание военизированных формирований и взгляд на войну как на естественный двигатель развития и важную часть человеческой жизни.

Предыстория

Эра Fin de siècle (Конец века)
Идеологические корни фашизма восходят к 1880 году и, в частности, теме Fin de siècle того времени. Эта тема была основана на противостоянии материализму, рационализму, позитивизму, буржуазному обществу и демократии. Данная интеллектуальная школа считала человека частью более крупной общности и осуждала рационалистический индивидуализм либеральной общественности и распад социальных связей в буржуазном обществе.

Мировоззрение Fin de siècle сформировалось под влиянием различных интеллектуальных разработок, в том числе биологии Дарвина, эстетики Вагнера, расизма Артюра де Гобино, психологии Гюстава Лебона и философии Фридриха Ницше, Федора Достоевского и Анри Бергсона. Социальный дарвинизм, который получил широкое признание к тому времени, не делал различия между физической и общественной жизнью и рассматривал существование человека как непрекращающуюся борьбу за выживание. Акцент социального дарвинизма на идентичность биогруппы и роль органических отношений в обществе способствовали легитимности и привлекательности национализма. Новые теории социальной и политической психологии также отвергали понятие рационального поведения человека и утверждали, что влияние эмоций в политических вопросах гораздо больше чем влияние разума. Аргумент Ницше о том, что "Бог умер", сочетался с его нападками на "стадное чувство" христианства, демократии и современного коллективизма. Его концепция Übermensch (Сверхчеловек) и его защита воли к власти как изначального инстинкта оказали огромное влияние на многих представителей поколения Fin de siècle.

Гаэтано Моска в своей работе "Правящий класс" (1896) разработал теорию, которая утверждает, что во всех обществах "организованное меньшинство" будет доминировать и властвовать над "неорганизованным большинством". Моска утверждал, что есть только два класса в обществе: "управляющих" (организованного меньшинства) и "управляемых" (неорганизованный большинство). Он также утверждал, что организованный характер организованного меньшинства делает его привлекательным для любого человека в неорганизованном большинстве.

Французский националист и  реакционный монархист Шарль Моррас также оказал влияние на развитие фашизма. Он пропагандировал интегральный национализм, призывающий к органическому единству нации. Моррас утверждал, что могущественный монарх является идеальным лидером нации. Моррас не доверял "демократической мистификации народной воли", которая, по его словам, привела к созданию безличного коллективного субъекта. Он утверждал, что могущественный монарх - это персонифицированный властитель, который может использовать свой авторитет  для объединения людей внутри страны. Интегральный национализм Морраса был идеализирован фашистами и изменен в модернизированную революционную форму, лишенную монархизма.

Французский революционный синдикалист Жорж Сорель в своих работах выступал за легитимность политического насилия и пропагандировал радикальные меры для достижения революции и свержения капитализма и буржуазии через всеобщую забастовку. В своей самой известной работе "Размышления о насилии" (1908) Сорель подчеркивал необходимость новой политической религии. В своей работе "Иллюзии прогресса" Сорель осудил демократию за реакционный характер, написав, что "нет ничего более аристократичного, чем демократия".  К 1909 году, после провала синдикалистской всеобщей забастовки во Франции, Сорель и его сторонники покинули левых радикалов и примкнули к правым радикалам, где они пытались объединить воинствующим католицизм и французский патриотизм со своими политическими взглядами, поддерживая антиреспубликанских христианских патриотов как идеальных революционеров.  Первоначально Сорель официально являлся ревизионистом марксизма, а в 1910 году он объявил о своем отказе от социализма, используя афоризм Бенедетто Кроче, что «социализм умер" из-за "разложения марксизма".  С 1909 г. Сорель становится сторонником реакционного национализма Шарля Морраса, который, в свою очередь, проявлял интерес к слиянию своих националистических идеалов с синдикализмом Сореля в качестве средства противостояния демократии. Моррас заявлял, что "социализм, освобожденный от демократического и космополитического элемента, подходит национализму так же, как хорошо пошитая перчатка подходит красивой руке".

Слияние национализма Морраса и синдикализма Сорелья оказали большое влияние на радикального итальянского националиста Энрико Коррадини. Он говорил о необходимости движения национал-синдикалистов во главе с аристократами и антидемократами, которые бы разделяли приверженность революционных синдикалистов к решительным действиям и готовности сражаться. Коррадини говорил об Италии как о "пролетарской нации", которой необходимо проводить политику империализма, чтобы бросить вызов плутократическим режимам Франции и Великобритании.

На становление фашизма как социального течения значительное влияние оказал британский публицист Томас Карлейль. Немецкий политолог Мануэль Саркисянц пишет:
Нацизм — не немецкое изобретение, изначально он возник за границей и пришёл к нам именно оттуда… Философия нацизма, теория диктатуры были сформулированы сто лет назад величайшим шотландцем своего времени — Карлейлем, самым почитаемым из политических пророков. Впоследствии его идеи были развиты Хьюстоном Стюартом Чемберленом. Нет ни одной основной доктрины… нацизма, на которых основана нацистская религия, которой не было бы… у Карлейля или у Чемберлена. И Карлейль и Чемберлен… являются поистине духовными отцами нацистской религии… Как и Гитлер, Карлейль никогда не изменял своей ненависти, своему презрению к парламентской системе… Как и Гитлер, Карлейль всегда верил в спасительную добродетель диктатуры.

Бертран Рассел в своей книге «История Западной философии» (1946) утверждал: «Следующий шаг после Карлейля и Ницше — Гитлер.»

Италия

Особую популярность эта идея приобрела в Италии и она легла в основу различных радикальных политических групп, нередко различной ориентации. Они выбирали фасции — фаши () своим символом. Впервые слово фаши в смысле политического союза было использовано для самоназвания группой революционных демократов и социалистов на Сицилии в 1870-х годах. Наиболее известной из них была группа  (Fasci siciliani) (1895—96)  Многие такие группы националистической ориентации к XX веку эволюционировали в движение, называемое «фашизмом». Революционно-социалистическое составляющяя понятия «фаши» сохранилась. Она была привлекательна для молодёжи с левым прошлым.

В 1915 году профсоюзное движение Италии раскололось, и группа левых сторонников вступления Италии в Первую мировую войну на стороне Антанты создала 1 октября 1914 года организацию «Фаши (союз) Революционного Интернационального действия» (). Бенито Муссолини вскоре присоединился к ней, а затем и возглавил её. 11 декабря 1914 года Муссолини объединил эту организацию с организацией, созданной им самим ранее, — «Фаши (союз) автономного революционного действия» ( — в новую «Фаши (союз) революционного действия» (). Новая группа называлась также миланскими фашистами.

24 января 1915 года на встрече в Милане была создана общеитальянская фашистская организация.

В 1919 году после окончания войны Муссолини объединил миланских фашистов под новым названием Итальянский фаши (союз) борьбы (). Создавались и другие фаши под подобными именами с общей целью противодействовать королю и правительству, подверженным пацифизму, которые не давали возможности Италии пожинать в полной мере плоды победы.

7 ноября 1921 года Национальная Фашистская Партия (НФП) — Partito Nazionale Fascista (PNF) была создана.

California is in the midst of its worst drought in over 1,200 years, exacerbated by record hot temperatures. A new study led by Benjamin Cook at Nasa GISS examines how drought intensity in North America will change in a hotter world, and finds that things will only get worse.
Global warming intensifies drought in several ways. In increases evaporation from soil and reservoirs. In increases water demand. It makes precipitation fall more as rain and less as snow, which is problematic for regions like California that rely on snowpack melt to refill reservoirs throughout the year. It also makes the snowpack melt earlier in the year. The record heat has intensified the current California drought by about 36%, and the planet will only continue to get hotter.
The study finds that drought intensity will increase, but could be manageable if we follow a path that involves slowing global warming by cutting carbon pollution.
However, decades-long mega-droughts in North America could be much worse than those experienced during medieval times, which led to the decline of native populations, if we continue on our current business-as-usual path.
The mega-droughts are projected to hit the main agricultural regions in the United States – both California and the Midwest "breadbasket." The chronic water shortages that are anticipated in these regions under the business-as-usual scenario would make farming, as well as ranching in the American southwest, nearly impossible.
This study reveals the flaw that underlies the 'CO2 is plant food' myth. While some types of plants benefit from a high-CO2 environment in a greenhouse where we can control all other variables, in the global climate, carbon pollution has other consequences. Among these are higher temperatures and more intense droughts, which are not good for plants or agriculture.
It's another example of the risks we face in a hotter world. This is an important time in human history, where we're at a fork in the road. If we follow the business-as-usual path, we move towards a future with extremely disruptive climate consequences, like mega-droughts and water shortages in major agricultural regions. If we follow the path to cut carbon pollution, we significantly reduce the risks of disruptive climate change.


When Lora showed up at the Bozeman Hoopers meetup with this sweet rack on her equally amazing cruiser, I knew that I MUST share it with you!
Lora found the instructions detailing how to make it on Hooping.org. It seems to be a popular setup for Burning Man hoopers, but of course could be used by anyone.
Ride on, Lora! Love it.
Hoops are big…and can be quite awkward to carry/transport/store. Here is one storage solution that we used while traveling in our Minnie Winnie. We currently store them inside our truck topper…strapped to the roof. When we are settled somewhere, they usually live under the RV in a big pile or tucked in one of the storage bays underneath.
I will occasionally hang them over our mirrors like my friend Tracy. I like to keep them in sight, because I am much more likely to just grab it and hoop when I have a few minutes. If they are difficult to reach or out of sight, I just forget to get them down!
And this brings me to the topic of travel hoops…because the travel hoops "fold" down! I would love to be able to just fold down my hoop and take it with me easily on my bike or in my bag. I have yet to make a true infinity hoop with 2 connectors, but I've been told it's super easy. Has anyone tried BodyHoop's or Hoopnotica's travel hoops? I would love to hear some reviews. (As a side note…I am planning on doing a post in the future that is dedicated to the topic of traveling with hoops (in airplanes and such).
Where do you store your hoops?
Post links to photos!! 🙂 You know I love photos.

Q: Set `LOG_*` options in Python `logging.handlers.SysLogHander` With syslog.openlog, we can set some log options like LOG_NDELAY, LOG_NOWAIT which are defined in <syslog.h>. I was looking for the way to set this kind of log options on logging.handlers.SysLogHander.
I found that LOG_CONS and LOG_PERROR can be implemented with additional logging.handers. LOG_NDELAY is already set, because the connection is opened when the handler is instantiated.
I don't really care of LOG_NOWAIT, because mainly I use Linux.
Then, how can I set LOG_ODELAY or LOG_PID?

A: Looking at the source for syslog.openlog, it directly passes the option integer to openlog(3).
Diving deeper, glibc's openlog calls openlog_internal, which just sets it to the LogStat global.
So, let's look at the flags you require in the openlog(3) docs:

LOG_ODELAY: The converse of LOG_NDELAY; opening of the connection is delayed until syslog() is called. (This is the default, and need not be specified.)

This seems only relevant if you use openlog() in the first place, which SysLogHandler does not do; it simply connects to the syslog over UDP.
You could implement your own SyslogFormatter, which does use syslog.openlog() and syslog.syslog() and pass all the flags your heart desires – the reason the stdlib doesn't do this, I imagine, is that it's not portable, as the syslog module might not be available on e.g. Windows.

LOG_PID: Include PID with each message.

This is implemented in glibc here.
if (LogStat & LOG_PID)
    fprintf (f, "[%d]", (int) __getpid ());

This is easy to implement, as logging already logs process IDs by default and exposes it to formatters.
So simply set your formatter string to
"[%(process)s] %(levelname)s:%(name)s:%(message)s"

instead of the default
"%(levelname)s:%(name)s:%(message)s"

The Holden VE and VF SS Commodore is one of the most common vehicles we work on, we have a lot of knowledge about what works well, why it works well and what combination of products to use to achieve a specific result.
The first question I always ask customers is how loud they want it and how much drone they can put up with. The louder you want your exhaust system to be, the more it will drone. It isn't that straight forward though, any model with AFM, being where the engine only runs on 4 cylinders while cursing will drone a lot worse. Then you have the differences in body types and how that effects drone, sedans will drone the least, wagons are worse and then ute's drone the worst because of the smaller cabin. Particularly if they have a hard cover on the tray as it acts like an amplification chamber. Besides this everyone will have a different sensitivity to drone, exhaust drone doesn't phase some people at all, while others can be highly sensitive to it.
There are two packages we generally offer for the VE/VF V8 Commodores; a cat back sports systems or a full system package. The full system is generally made up of Pacemaker extractors, our own 100cpi stainless steel hi-flow cats and usually an X-Force cat back system.
For a cat back system we usually recommend a twin 2.5" or a twin 3" X-Force cat back system. I recommend twin 2.5" for a more subtle note with less drone and then twin 3" for a louder, meaner note. Naturally twin 3" comes with more drone. While there is some speculation around just how well X-Force systems fit, we have found them to be the most reliable and best value for money cat back bolt on systems on the market.
For a full system depending on how low the vehicle is we recommend Pacemaker try-y extractors for a lowered vehicle as the extractors sit higher and give better ground clearance. If the vehicle isn't too low we always recommend Pacemaker 4 into 1 competition extractors with our own 100 cpi stainless steel hi-flow cats and the choice of X-Force twin 2.5" or twin 3" cat back sports system. We're very competitively priced and these full package deals are quite affordable.
We have done a few wild and unique system combinations. For a very good customer of ours, with a very nice blacked out VE SS sedan we fitted ceramic coated Pacemaker extractors with our 100 cpi hi-flow cats and our own hand made full stainless steel twin 3" sports system with black powder coated quad 3" tips. This particular customer had lowered his commodore a lot. As a result it was scraping badly and the bolt on twin 3" cat back system wasn't as high as it could have been, so we hand made a twin 3" stainless system with maximum ground clearance in mind.

Federal Workers At Fiscal Cliff Tell Congress 'Enough Is Enough'
By Dave Jamieson

WASHINGTON -- Worried about further pay freezes and pension cuts, the unions representing federal and postal workers have a message for legislators seeking a "grand bargain" on deficit reduction: Don't look to us for more savings.
"Our position is quite firmly that we are the only group of Americans that have [already] had to make any sacrifice whatsoever to deficit reduction," said Jackie Simon, the public policy director at the American Federation of Government Employees. AFGE, the largest federal employees union, represents some 670,000 workers.
"You've got to look elsewhere for your cuts if you have to make them," Simon added.
Lawmakers will spend the coming weeks scrambling to avoid the "fiscal cliff," when drastic cuts hit domestic and defense programs in early 2013. If they want to stave off the automatic cuts, they must find other ways to help reduce the $1 trillion deficit. The president has already warned his progressive base that they may not like some of the measures that emerge from the deficit talks.
The looming cuts have kept labor unions in full-on campaign mode after the Nov. 6 election. The AFL-CIO has vowed it will oppose any deal between the White House and Congress that includes reductions in Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid funding, the kind of cuts that had reportedly been on the table during last year's failed grand-bargain negotiations between President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner (R).
Aside from those social insurance programs, federal and postal unions say they're concerned separate cuts could hit the workers they represent. Republicans have long decried the federal workforce as bloated and its employees as overpaid, while even Democrats have recently shown a willingness to withhold cost-of-living raises for federal workers. Obama signed off on a federal pay freeze in 2010 that was initially meant to last two years but has since been extended through March 2013.
"We're very nervous about Congress sort of zeroing in on postal employees' and federal employees' pensions and heath care," said Jim Sauber, chief of staff at the National Association of Letter Carriers, which has nearly 300,000 union members. "It's been an easy target. They've repeatedly gone to that well to pay for things in the past. I guess we're all willing to do our fair share, but so far this community has really been targeted."
In a memo obtained by Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward, which purported to show a grand-bargain offer from the White House to Boehner last year, the $200 billion in proposed savings included $33 billion from "civilian retirement" and another $16 billion from "postal reform."
In a letter sent to Congress Thursday, AFGE declared federal workers "the lone group of Americans who have made sacrifices to deficit reduction," adding that the workforce has "suffered cuts worth more than $100 billion over ten years, all of which were made to reduce deficits. Enough is enough."
According to the union, that $100 billion over a decade includes $60 billion from the two-year pay freeze, $28 billion from a reduced raise for 2013 and $15 billion from reduced retirement benefits. The letter noted that the benefit reductions imposed on new federal and postal employees footed the bill for half of the cost of extending unemployment insurance last February.
Many conservatives maintain that cuts to federal pay and benefits could go further. James Sherk, a Heritage Foundation policy analyst and critic of federal employee compensation packages, said the entire pay system for federal workers should be overhauled. Short of that, Sherk said, further pay freezes or even a raise in the eligible age for retirement should be on the table over the next two months.
"I think it's quite reasonable to include them in the talks," Sherk said. "If everything is on the table -- higher taxes, Social Security and Medicare [cuts] -- the notion of raising the retirement age is something that would be much less of a painful sacrifice."
Sauber said that raising the age at which postal workers can start collecting their pensions -- or the age at which the larger population becomes eligible for Medicare -- would change people's standard of living.
"These are blue-collar workers with very physical jobs," Sauber said of letter carriers. "The idea of raising the retirement age or the eligibility for Medicare for us would be really painful and wouldn't make a lot of sense."
The unions' primary hope is that Obama has a stronger hand now in the wake of his election victory than he did during negotiations last summer -- and that he'll be willing to expend some of his political capital to stave off pay freezes or pension cuts.
"Austerity began for us three or four years ago," Sauber said, speaking of federal employees. "Now they're getting around to it for the rest of the budget. It's appropriate that we do our share, but not more than it."
What The GOP Doesn't Want You To Know About The Deficit

Labor Reporter, HuffPost
Postal Service Politics Barack Obama Money and Kids U.S. Postal Service
The Deficit Has Grown Mostly Because Of The Recession
The deficit has ballooned not because of specific spending measures, but because of the recession. The deficit more than doubled between 2008 and 2009, as the economy was in free fall, since laid-off workers paid less in taxes and needed more benefits. The deficit then shrank in 2010 and 2011.


And I thought I was about done....ha! I'm still playing with hexagon fragments I'm creating with my Papertrey coverplate die.
Rearranged, Maryhill triangles also emerge.
...that can be added to or rearranged over and over.
Of course I needed to update my prestrung Zentangle® journal with hexagon fragments.
And this is how my May BuJo calendar turned out. I have a similar hexagon theme for June. Will I have sufficient fragments?
Back to the cube. Remember it is a central point with 3 radiating lines out to alternating corners.
I liked Emingle (Ambler?) in the earlier tile....and I had played with it in a cube in this earlier post.
I wanted to explore with it more.
Note, if you start Emingle at an interior corner, you end up with an "impossible" type frame.
Here I added weight to two sides (I always chose the outside edges of the diamond to make it easier).
Let's not leave out triangulation! (in hind site I like being more selective with this technique vs hitting each corner as I later did.
And this is an Emingle variation of Quadrose.
And look at this unassuming little fragment. The black makes the cube. I aura-ed those lines with brown and then filled in leaving a hilight where I added generals white charcoal.
I love it in multiples. Do you see the black lines form hexagons, as do the brown shapes in addition to the die cut fragments themselves.
And did you notice that the white also forms hexagons?
So even tho 6 would seem the appropriate number of posts to explore hexagons, I believe I've only just scratched the surface. I will likely mix in other things as well, but I'm sure there will be more hexagon adventures to follow.
I'll leave you with this card. It utilizes Spellbinders Kaleidoscope die that I used to cut both watercolor paper and black cardstock. Arukas is done in black Pigma micron ink and the blue is watercolor with some colored pencil shading and gelly roll hilites.
I hope you enjoyed your week and I appreciate you sticking with me for this long post!
Love these hexagon fragments! So versatile and so lovely!
Wow! You are talented and very patient! I have that PPI Hexagon plate, best I relook at it and its uses! Awesome work and great inspiration!

TechSoup Murals
A set of five panels (four square, one rectangular) outlining the history of TechSoup Canada and inviting the community it serves to exchange ideas and wish the venture success.
TechSoup Canada, Centre for Social Innovation
TechSoup Canada is an organization that helps charities and non-profits access software, hardware and computer-related expertise for a fraction of the retail cost of these services. To celebrate and promote their launch, Donnia Claudino, Marketing Manager, requested a set of temporary murals. The challenge: these murals had to be temporary, and they had to be finished in three days.
We chose the maple as a synbol of Canada (duh!), and a metaphor of the community that grows stronger as it develops roots spreads seeds. The panels highlight the history of TechSoup, from its beginnings in California, to their launch in Canada.
Tenants at the Centre for Social Innovation, TechSoup's home, were asked to fill in the bubbles with words of encouragment, success stories, and other community-building sentiments.

Oysters Ice Cream & Lemonade, Vol. 1 by Too Sad For The Public on StorySound Records
Holy water! Something completely novel and refreshing. There is true synthesis here. Too Sad For The Public mixes more genres than a soda jerk at Baskin Robbins does with 31 flavors. The second song is concrete evidence of my previous statement. Liberty City, Pt. 1 is a flat out, knock em drag out of the highest order. Let's not forget Parts 2 & 3 either! This song mixes country, jazz, big band, bluegrass, folk, reggae, and funk to create a completely original composition. This will be the 4th time listening to this track, at the time of writing.
Unfortunately, this seems to be more of a side project rather than a proper band. There were a lot of guest musicians which indicated more of a "one off" and not a stable band. That is unfortunate, because the music has some serious legs. It is totally innovative and very easy to listen on repeat, and repeat, etc.
This is the project of songwriter and producer Dick Connette. Connette has been in the music business in various capacities since 1970. Over the last 30 years, he has devoted himself to writing music and songs based on Americana. This collection includes mainly originals, with two covers thrown in for good measure.
Even the covers sound absolutely nothing like the originals. For instance, He's A Bad Boy (Track 6) is a Carole King cover and it sounds nothing like King's version. It is completely beautiful and a really really great song. The harmonica in this song reminds me of the closing song in Midnight Cowboy.
Young Loves to Love (Track 10) is a completely original take on Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl. So different that it takes a while to determine which song it is. It is symphonic and plays more like a classical composition. It is one of a kind and an absolutely beautiful rendition.
There is a song on here that pays homage to the late Chuck Brown and Go Go Music. Chuck Baby (Track 12) is a barn burning funky number that clocks in at just over 12 minutes. And I wish it was another 12! It is that effin good. Anyone that ever heard Go Go and Chuck Brown will recognize that drum beat. That beat is as distinguishable as a birthmark or tattoo. It has a sound that is undeniable. I couldn't help but dance during this funk-a-thon.
So, let's forget the pretense. Just buy it. I can't say anymore. Well actually I can, I sense an overall Gothic feel to the entire album. As if Joy Division got into a head on collision with Tammy Wynette. Those are the final words.

No Smoking, Or ... ?
Not that I want to, in fact I've never even tried it, but you really can't smoke anywhere in New York City. My favorite sandwich shop, around the corner from my office, has a decal on the wall reminding you that you're not allowed a cigarette.
Every time I'm in there waiting for my decadent hot delicious sandwich, I ponder the sign. What I think it means is, if you light up, someone will hit you in the head with a hamburger. But the thing is? They don't sell hamburgers.
I think it means that bald people can't smoke or else fake teeth will come knock them in the head.
as former smokers, all those smokers out in the street in NYC just made us want to start again, or knock them in the head with a ... yeah, I still don't know.
I thought it was a flying saucer of some sort.
Judging by your description of what they do sell, nobody is going to throw that. So a McD hamburger? or a plastic one that they keep on hand just for that occasion? Cause I think the picture indicates that the hit has occurred, knocking the cig out of the poor shmuck's mouth, but also causing the hamburger to reflect away from the shmuck's head and fully retain its perfectly hamburger-shaped profile.
What? You think too much time on my hands? Or an overactive imagination?
I thought it suggested that smoking would inspire such fearsome coughs that one's too-small hat would fly off one's head.
Is that Pac Man behind bald geriatric toothless dude? Or a tentacle-less jellyfish?
Perhaps it is a tin of chaw.
LOL. They just might have a secret hamburger chucker WAITING in the wings for SOMEONE to light up. I dare ya.
Kinda makes you wanna try just to see wtf will happen, huh?
I bet you wish that one day someone would smoke in there so you could throw your sandwich at their head. That would be awesome.
I suppose people will be so outraged that they will leave the premises to buy a hamburger to throw.
who would throw their "hot delicious sandwich" that surely cost a fortune? NO, they grab a cheap burger from the nearest fast food joint and let it harden in their bag until the opportunity arises and then "wham" to the back of someone's head.
I need to try this outside the Starbucks near where I work--they have a great outisde setup and all the old men play chess and smoke. You need a gas mask to navigate the sidewalk.
I thought it meant if you smoke God will knock your hand-knitted yarmulke off of your head. Go figure.
Now see, this almost makes me want to light up, just to see what kind of adventure awaits when I do.
That is very, very funny. There must be a Flickr group or some thing devoted to hilarious signage, no?
this honestly made me laugh out loud for three minutes straight. my baby is sitting here in her high chair staring at me like i'm crazy. i tried explaining it to her but she's ten months old. she doesn't get it.
I look at that and all I can think of is Flying Spaghetti Monster. Flying Cheesburger is a lesser demigod in the FSM pantheon, and is not only the patron saint of nonsmokers, but good dental hygeine. Right?

ISIS releases 19 Assyrian Christians kidnapped in Syria
ISIS has released 19 of an estimated 220 members of an Assyrian Christian community kidnapped in north-eastern Syria, activists say.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group said an Assyrian commander had told it of the releases.
Some reports say the releases were made in exchange for a sum of money.
The kidnappings took place shortly before dawn on February 23, when ISIS militants swept into about 12 villages.
Men, women and children from the villages, located on the southern bank of the Khabur River, near the town of Tal Tamr, were taken captive.
Correspondents say that news of the releases will provide some comfort to the Christian Assyrian community – which has been devastated by the abductions – even though there is concern for those still being held.
Assyrian Christian officials said that the 16 men and three women who were released arrived safely on February 28 at the Church of the Virgin Mary in the city of Hassakeh.
The nineteen – all from the village of Tal Ghoran – had been transported by bus from the IS-held town of Shaddadeh, which is south of Hassakeh.
Some reports say that all those freed were about 50 or older, indicating that age might be a factor.
The Assyrian Human Rights Network said the captives gained their freedom after a Sharia court ordered them to pay an unspecified amount of money levied as a tax on non-Muslims.
Assyrian leaders and Sunni tribal sheikhs are trying to negotiate with ISIS to secure the release of the remaining captives, activists said.
It is estimated that up to 40,000 Assyrians lived in Syria – alongside the overall Christian population of 1.2 million – before the country's civil war broke out in 2011.
The Assyrians, one of the world's oldest Christian communities, have been under increasing pressure since ISIS captured large parts of Syria.
Some 1,000 local Assyrian families are believed to have fled their homes in the wake of the abductions.

ISIS abducted at least 200 Assyrian Christians in Syria
According to new reports, there are more members of an Assyrian Christian community in north-eastern Syria were abducted by ISIS militants than at first thought.
Sources in the community said as many as 200 people might have been seized on February 23 in raids on a string of villages near Tal Tamr, in Hassakeh province.
Most of the captives were women, children and the elderly.
Kurdish and Christian militia are battling Islamic State in the area.
At least 90 Assyrians were seized by the militants on February 23 as they captured 12 villages along the southern bank of the Khabur river before dawn, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based opposition group that monitors the conflict in the country.
The Syriac National Council of Syria put the figure as high as 150, while Afram Yaboub of the Assyrian Federation of Sweden said sources on the ground had told him that at least 60 and up to 200 people were missing.
Osama Edward of the Sweden-based Assyrian Human Rights Network told the AFP news agency that the captives had been taken to the ISIS stronghold of Shaddadi, as did Syria's state news agency, Sana.
"People were expecting an attack, but they thought that either the Syrian army, which is just 30km [20 miles] from there or the Kurds or the [US-led] coalition's strikes would protect them," Osama Edward said.
Hundreds of Assyrians who were living in villages on the north bank of the Khabur River and elsewhere are reported to have fled following the attack to the largely Kurdish-controlled provincial capital of Hassakeh, to the south-east, and Qamishli, another city to the north-east.
"Since Monday, 800 families have taken refuge in the city of Hassakeh and another 150 in Qamishli," Osama Edward reported.
The Syriac Military Council had about 400 fighters in the area and at least four had been killed in clashes with the jihadists, he added. The YPG has deployed between 1,000 and 1,500 fighters.
The YPG was also reported to be continuing a major offensive launched on Sunday against IS some 60 miles to the east, near the border with Iraq – an area of vital importance to the jihadists.
The Syrian Observatory said at least 132 ISIS militants had been killed in the offensive, along with seven members of the YPG.

ISIS kidnaps at least 90 Assyrian Christians in Syria
At least 90 Assyrian Christians have been kidnapped by ISIS militants from villages in north-eastern Syria, activists say.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that at least 90 men, women and children were seized in a series of dawn raids near the town of Tal Tamr.
Some Assyrians managed to escape and made their way east to the largely Kurdish-controlled city of Hassakeh.
It comes as Syrian Kurdish fighters backed by US-led air strikes continue to advance into ISIS-held territory.
On February 23, a Kurdish official said ISIS militants had been forced back to within 3 miles of the town of Tal Hamis by the Popular Protection Units (YPG).
The Syrian Observatory confirmed the advance by the YPG and said at least 12 ISIS fighters had been killed on February 23.
Hassakeh province is strategically important in the fight against ISIS because it borders both Turkey and areas controlled by the group in Iraq.

26 million Facebook users put a rainbow filter on their profile pictures for gay marriage
SAN FRANCISCO — Rainbows spread quickly all over Facebook last week to celebrate the Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage..
Over the past three days, 26 million people have super imposed rainbows over their Facebook profile pictures using a free tool provided by the company. The rainbow filter launched Friday and continued to gain steam over Pride weekend, garnering more than half a billion likes and comments all over the world.
Famous people including Russell Simmons, California Attorney General Kamala Harris, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Brazil's president Dilma Rousseff changed their profiles.
The tool was created by two Facebook interns during an internal hackathon last week.
Changing a profile picture is easily dismissed as low-effort activism. But for many people who are not typically political it was a way to quietly show support.
Facebook has long been a vocal supporter of LGBTQ rights. But many activists are still upset about the company's real-names policy that requires people use an "authentic" name that they can prove they're known by in the real world. Drag queens, sex workers, abuse survivors and Native Americans all say the policy discriminates against them.
In the US alone, more than 6 million people have identified as gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgender or gender non-conforming on the social network.

For 17 seasons Bill O'Donnell covered Baltimore Orioles baseball in a calm, objective style. O'Donnell, who was said to be as unflappable off the air as he was on, once commented, "If you're always getting excited, you will lose your credibility when it is time to be excited."1 A highly respected sportscaster, O'Donnell also covered network baseball, football, and basketball before his untimely death at the age of 56.
Bill O'Donnell was born on June 4, 1926, in the Bronx, New York, the son of William and Eleanor O'Donnell. Growing up in the Bronx, he attended Fordham Prep. At the age of 14, he was working as a copyboy for the New York Times, and he later worked for the New York World-Telegram. O'Donnell served in the Pacific as a combat correspondent with the US Marine Corps during World War II.
Discharged from the Marines in 1946, O'Donnell attended Fordham University and later Mohawk College (now Mohawk Valley Community College) in Utica, New York, where he completed his degree. He worked as a sportswriter and copy editor for the Utica Daily Press from 1946 until January 1948, when Elliott Stuart, manager of Utica radio station WIBX, offered him a position as sports director at the station. In addition, O'Donnell hosted a daily sports radio show.
Utica was important to O'Donnell personally as well as professionally. He married Patricia Martin on September 10, 1949, at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. The marriage was a lasting one, and they had five children. O'Donnell said in 1978, "In this business, there is no gray, it's all black and white. Your success and lack of success depends a lot on the person you marry. You marry the right person and it is heaven, you marry the wrong person, it could be hell."3 O'Donnell credited his wife with being the major factor in his personal and professional success.
As well as broadcasting the Orioles' games, O'Donnell continued to cover many network assignments. In 1970 he told Utica columnist Phil Spartano, "Last fall in the eighth inning of the third and final playoff game with Minnesota, Chet Simmons of NBC-TV sports walked into our booth and asked me to call him the next morning. I was sure it meant an assignment to work the World Series. That's what it turned out to be. Right after breaking into radio with WIBX I had always hoped to someday broadcast a World Series. It took a long time but the wait was worthwhile, even though the Mets won it in five games."13 O'Donnell also broadcast the 1971 World Series and the 1975 American League Championship Series for the television network, as well as serving as a play-by-play voice of NBC's backup Game of the Week from 1969 to 1976.
O'Donnell also continued to work other sports. After spending 1966 to 1968 on radio broadcasts of Baltimore Colts football, he broadcast NFL football on NBC-TV from 1970 to 1975, as well as NCAA football on ABC-TV in 1969. Throughout his career, he kept a busy schedule. By 1982 he reportedly worked a schedule of 180 baseball games (including exhibition games), 32 basketball games, and 10 football games a year.

While Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has been very secretive about his stance on illegal immigration during the campaign, he gave us a peek into what he really thinks about it at a black-tie dinner capping the end of a Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute gathering in Washington.
so he does not believe in freedom of speech?
Bingo! American citizens will be paying and paying and paying for them to live here free of charge, and we just have to buck up and like it. No way no Obama.
As much as I HATE racism, xenophobia, unkindness, and "mean-spiritedness", this link disturbs me. ANY attempt to curb SPEECH, or IDEAS, by censoring public discussion should concern everyone. It's 'creepy', it's '1984-like', and it's simply unacceptable. Americans have always had access to ALL ideas, bounded only by a few norms inthe area of obscenity and incitement to violence. Otherwise, this is AMERICA..and if you don't LIKE someone's idea, you rebut it, or you walk away...you DON'T take away his right to speak.
BAD BAD idea, with no possible end in sight. Once again, what I find PARTICULARLY disturbing is hearing this from a candidate for President.
My sentiments exactly! No doubt, Janet Murguia and her minions at La Raza, are pressuring Obama to "stop the hate". Any speech La Raza, et al. consider anti-illegal is automatically labeled "hate" speech. We must fight this infringement on our constitutional rights.
The sheeple are so busy arguing over 'he said, she said' nonsense, they are oblivious to the 'real' issues. People had better get their heads out of the sand, and realize what's happening to this country, before we lose all of our rights as Americans.
Rip apart the legal-speak of this paragraph, and it clearly shows Obama does represent the people of this country.
There is only one purpose of anyone elected to any office, and that is to serve; whether it is the country, the state, or the community, it is we, the people, who the elected representatives are responsible for, and they answer to. You can not have two masters.
Remove Obama from the stage.
You know what? He was speaking to a Hispanic group. How many politicians pander in front of a crowd then do the opposite when they're in office? All of them.
Silliness. He is going to stop the demagoguery by passing immigration reform. McCain is going to do the same thing.
Any rational government is going to do the same thing.
There simply is no other way to gain control of illegal immigration.
Watch the economy: if it continues to tank.............there will be more emphasis on deportations, etc. Hell; many of the illegals will continue to self deport if no one hires 'em----------especially with the multiplying laws against said illegals.
We agree that the economy is a big motivator. But it is selective. Those with roots will stay while the young single guys will go home.
I can even see it cutting the illegal population by 20 or 25% but that is likely it. And that will turn around real fast if the economy picks up in a year or so.
I am skeptical that the local laws have much impact. I think Vegas is losing hispanics quicker than Phoenix though the Vegas legal climate is much friendlier.

ECLAC Proposes Ensuring and Universalizing Connectivity and the Affordability of Digital Technologies to Tackle the Effects of COVID-19
Available in EnglishEspañolPortuguês
26 August 2020|Press Release
A new special report by the UN regional commission suggests a basic basket of Information and Communications Technologies for all households, at an annual cost of less than 1% of GDP.
rev_1_in.jpg
The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) urged today for ensuring and universalizing connectivity and the affordability of digital technologies to address the many impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in the region. To this end, it proposed five lines of action that include building an inclusive digital society, driving a productive transformation, fostering digital trust and security, strengthening regional digital cooperation, and moving towards a new governance model to ensure a "digital welfare state" that would promote equality, protect the population's economic, social and labor rights, guarantee the secure use of data, and fuel progressive structural change.
ECLAC's Executive Secretary, Alicia Bárcena, unveiled during a press conference the institution's Special Report COVID-19 No. 7, entitled Universalizing access to digital technologies to address the consequences of COVID-19, which proposes to the region's countries ensuring a basic basket of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) made up of a laptop, a smartphone, a tablet and a connection plan for households that are not connected, at an annual cost of less than 1% of GDP.
The report presented today highlights the importance that digital technologies have had for the functioning of the economy and society during the crisis prompted by the coronavirus disease pandemic. Progress that was expected to take years to materialize has been made in a matter of months. However, access gaps affect the right to health, education and work, and can also widen structural gaps and increase socioeconomic inequalities.
"The countries of Latin America and the Caribbean have taken measures to encourage the use of technological solutions and to ensure the continuity of telecommunications services. However, the scope of these actions is limited by gaps in access to and use of these technologies and by connection speeds," Alicia Bárcena said upon presenting the report.
According to the document, in 2019, 66.7% of the region's inhabitants had an Internet connection. The remaining third had limited or no access to digital technologies due to their economic and social status, particularly their age and location. In 12 countries of the region, the percentage of households in the highest income quintile (quintile V) that have an Internet connection is 81% on average, while the figures for households in the first and second quintiles are 38% and 53%, respectively.
The differences in connectivity between urban and rural areas are significant. In the region, 67% of urban households are connected to the Internet, while in rural areas only 23% are. In terms of age groups, young people and older adults have less connectivity: 42% of those under 25 years of age and 54% of people older than 66 are not connected to the Internet.
The report adds that the low degree of affordability reinforces the exclusion of lower-income households. The cost of mobile and fixed broadband services for the population in the first income quintile accounts for 14% and 12% of their income, respectively. This is around 6 times the reference threshold of 2% of income recommended by the United Nations Broadband Commission.
The study reveals that mobility data during the first months of lockdown show a world that was paralyzed physically, but not virtually. Website traffic and the use of applications for teleworking, online education or distance learning, and online shopping reveal a significant increase in the use of digital solutions. Between the first and second quarters of 2020, the use of teleworking solutions surged by 324% while distance education rose more than 60%.
However, the use of distance learning solutions is only possible for those with an Internet connection and devices that enable access, and in Latin America 46% of children between 5 and 12 years of age live in households that have no connectivity. Households' access to digital devices is also unequal in the region: while between 70% and 80% of students from the highest socioeconomic levels have laptops in their homes, only between 10% and 20% of students in the lowest income quintiles have these devices.
"The difference between the highest and lowest economic strata affects the right to education and deepens socioeconomic inequalities. To ensure inclusive and equitable education and promote learning opportunities throughout the education cycle, not only must connectivity and digital infrastructure be improved, but also the digital skills of teachers and professors, and educational content must be adapted to the digital environment," ECLAC's Executive Secretary emphasized.
With regard to the percentage of jobs that can be shifted over to teleworking, the report notes that this is positively linked to the level of per capita GDP and to lower degrees of labor informality. In Europe and the United States, nearly 40% of workers can work from home, whereas in the case of Latin America, ECLAC estimates that around 21.3% of employed persons could engage in teleworking.
The document highlights that the Internet is mitigating the impact of the crisis on companies. It states that between March and April 2020, the number of business websites jumped by 800% in Colombia and Mexico and around 360% in Brazil and Chile. In June 2020, the online presence of retail companies surged by 431% compared with June 2019.
Finally, the report indicates that the post-pandemic period will be characterized by new demand patterns based on online channels that will require efforts by countries and the private sector to deliver better services. Meanwhile, new supply patterns will be based on flexibility, local proximity and response capacity.
"Productivity and structural change will remain central to development. The region must move towards more diversified, homogeneous and integrated productive systems that incorporate technology at all stages in order to increase productivity, competitiveness and productive inclusion, which will lead to higher employment levels and wages," Alicia Bárcena concluded.
