From Spanish to English and Back - a writing journey across languages
Once upon a time there was a young woman who arrived on the shores of Australia with barely a world of English. For someone who, according to her mother, had been 'born talking'; someone who had grown up with her head buried in novels, who wrote her first award-winning poem (in Spanish) at the age of 10, finished writing her first novella at the age of 14 and won her first national writing competition at the age of 15; someone who had always understood the world around her in terms of metaphors and grew up dreaming of becoming a professional writer, having to find a voice in a new language at the age of twenty appeared to be an insurmountable challenge.
During my first years in Sydney, I found consolation in writing poetry in my mother tongue. To my surprise, my poetry won awards, including a grant from the Australia Council of the Arts. My poems appeared in the Spanish language press and were read on SBS Radio; I was invited to read my poetry at festivals and to participate in anthologies. In my verses, I explored the themes and metaphors that reflected my new status as a migrant: grief, death, rebirth, reincarnation, reinvention, becoming 'lost in translation'.
It was tempting to stay within the boundaries of my community, where I even had a small 'fan club' among Spanish speaking immigrants who admired the way someone my age could find the words to express so well their experience of exile, but, as Paul White wrote in the introduction to Writing across worlds – literature and migration (Rutledge, 1995) "why migrate if such movement does not result in change, or does not accommodate an identity change that has already occurred"?
Hesitantly at first, I began writing for a mainstream English-speaking audience. When I submitted my first essay for publication to the Australian literary journal Quadrant in 2006, the then literary editor, celebrated poet Les Murray, wrote the following comment in the note he sent back with the manuscript: "Your English is impeccable and obviously adequate for literary writing in your new(er) language". Admittedly, he said this as a prelude to rejecting the afore mentioned piece, but I still treasure the note, not just because it was handwritten by Les Murray himself, but also because a few years earlier, when I was still struggling to grasp the use of everyday English, I often despaired thinking I would never be able to write 'literately' in my second language.
With renewed confidence, I wrote and submitted a second essay, and this one, 'An Exile's view of Bolivia' was accepted for publication in the July-August 2007 Issue of Quadrant – and I even received a cheque.
In the intervening years, I have been writing solely in English, but every time I compose a sentence there is a hint of doubt – which I told myself would be natural for anyone writing in their second language. I was amazed to hear that Ian McEwan, a world renowned, Booker prize winning author, was plagued by similar doubts when he started writing - in his first language! In a recent TV interview with Jennifer Byrne, he discussed Mother Tongue (2001), a deeply personal essay in which he remembers his mother having an 'uneasy relationship with words', which rubbed onto him, making him distrustful of language. In the essay he says:
When I started writing seriously in 1970, I may have dropped all or most of my mother's ways with words, but I still had her attitudes, her wariness, her unsureness of touch…. I would sit without a pen in my hand, framing a sentence in my mind, often losing the beginning as I reached the end, and only when the thing was secure and complete would I set it down. I would stare at it suspiciously. Did it really say what I meant? Did it contain an error or an ambiguity that I could not see? Was it making a fool of me? Hours of effort produced very little, and very little satisfaction.
In April 2013, my family and I celebrated a quarter of a century in Australia. Reflecting upon this milestone, I realised that I no longer feel divided between two languages and two cultures. The transition has taken a long time, but I have managed to learn fluent English, acquire advanced degrees at university, find well remunerated professional jobs and form an Anglophone circle of friends and relations. I have embraced this country, its language and its society, and they have embraced me back.
The crossing of the bridge between languages hasn't been exactly smooth; yet it continues to be a rewarding and fascinating journey, thanks to the relationships forged, lessons learnt and successes achieved along the way. Writing and publishing a full-length novel, Exuberance, in my new(er) language and on a theme other than migration, has been one of the achievements. There have been losses of course; in the effort to 'assimilate', I have lost important aspects of my cultural identity. Yet I have also discovered that there are many other dimensions of this identity that, along with my accent and my appearance, cannot be discarded or replaced.
25 years on, I have come full circle, and have now taken on the challenge of translating Exuberance to Spanish, in an effort to regain my fluency in that beautiful language. My mother tongue will always be a significant tie that binds me to my origins, and it is important to preserve it.

London, Jack: The Iron Heel. v1. 29 Sep 2022
The Iron Heel is a pioneer in the dystopian genre and is credited with influencing Orwell when he came to write his great masterpiece 1984. Indeed, by the time you've finished reading it you'll be seeing its influence everywhere — from H.G. Wells' The Shape of Things to Come (1933) to Margaret Atwood's superb dystopian creation The Handmaid's Tale (1985).
The novel purports to be the lost manuscript of one Avis Evehard, wife to a socialist revolutionary called Ernest Evehard. The manuscript itself has been lost to the world for several centuries, and upon its rediscovery in a more enlightened era it has been edited, abridged and heavily annotated by an academic called Anthony Meredith.
It chronicles the rise of an all-powerful Oligarchy of robber barons in America, who in the first few decades of the twentieth century gradually consolidate their economic and political hold over the country. The middle classes are squeezed into a new form of economic serfdom and the agricultural population into an altogether older form. Meanwhile the workers are set up to fight against one another and brutally repressed if they challenge the new order.
But challenge they do, through both the ballot box and the organisation of labour. Revolution breaks out and the Oligarchs resolve to ruthlessly crush all resistance to their rule, both foreign and domestic. The brutal nature of this repression leads to their dictatorship being characterised as "The Iron Heel".
—Alfred Searls, Goodreads
John Griffith Chaney (January 12, 1876 – November 22, 1916), better known as Jack London, was an American novelist, journalist, and activist. A pioneer of commercial fiction and American magazines, he was one of the first American authors to become an international celebrity and earn a large fortune from writing.
His most famous works are adventure stories set in in Alaska and the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush, such as The Call of the Wild, White Fang, "To Build a Fire", "An Odyssey of the North", and "Love of Life". He also wrote about the South Pacific and about adventures at sea. He was also an innovator in the genre that would later become known as science fiction, and wrote tales of fantasy and mystery & suspense.
The Iron Heel was originally published in 1908. This book is in the public domain worldwide, because the author died more than 100 years ago, and it was published prior to 1927.

Vintage style pruning garden scissors with a carbon steel blade.
Carbon steel is harder than stainless steel and will hold its edge longer before needing to be sharpened. It does require a bit of care and attention. Always remember to KEEP YOUR SHEARS DRY after use, as carbon steel will rust when it remains wet. It is also natural for carbon steel to develop a patina over time. Run a towel over the knife between uses and store in a dry place.

Q: Shared memory Value dissapears from an object here is some strange behavior in Python (2.7.9, Windows) I would like to ask an advice about.
I am trying to extend a class with a variable in initialization and I want to share an object of this class between two processes (parent and child). Both of them will use this variable.
This code works fine:
# coding: utf-8
from multiprocessing import Process, Value
from time import sleep

class ExQueue(object):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(ExQueue, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.trust_me_this_name_is_unique = Value('L', 0)

def func(ex_queue):
    print 'I am the child process. Is there a parameter: ',
    print hasattr(ex_queue, 'trust_me_this_name_is_unique')

    # this sleep is here to assure no printing overlapping
    sleep(.5)

def main():
    ex_queue = ExQueue()

    print 'I am the parent process. Is there a parameter: ',
    print hasattr(ex_queue, 'trust_me_this_name_is_unique')

    child_process = Process(target=func, args=(ex_queue,))

    child_process.start()

    child_process.join()

    print 'I am the parent process. Is there a parameter: ',
    print hasattr(ex_queue, 'trust_me_this_name_is_unique')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Output:
I am the parent process. Is there a parameter:  True
I am the child process. Is there a parameter:  True
I am the parent process. Is there a parameter:  True

But if ExQueue is inherited from Queue class (the one from multiprocessing.queues module), the trick does not work.
At the beginning add:
from multiprocessing.queues import Queue

and change
class ExQueue(object):

to:
class ExQueue(Queue):

Output will be:
I am the parent process. Is there a parameter:  True
I am the child process. Is there a parameter:  False
I am the parent process. Is there a parameter:  True

So, in the ExQueue example of the child process there is no trust_me_this_name_is_unique variable.
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
Thanks!
UPD: Works as expected on Mac OS. Variable does not disappear.
Solution
Thank you, tdelaney! Your answer helped a lot!
I added those two methods to the ExQueue and it pickles on Windows just fine now:
def __getstate__(self):
    state = super(ExQueue, self).__getstate__()
    return state + (self.trust_me_this_name_is_unique,)

def __setstate__(self, state):
    state, self.trust_me_this_name_is_unique = state[:-1], state[-1]
    super(ExQueue, self).__setstate__(state)

Still not sure that it's a good approach to inherit from Queue at all. :)

A: Its not a problem with the shared memory value, its the variable on the queue object itself that disappears.
Multiprocessing works differently on machines that implement the *nix forking model verses the Windows create-process model. On *nix, when you create a multiprocessing process, the parent process is forked and since the child has as copy-on-write view of the parent's memory space, all of the python objects (including your queue) are in the child space ready to be used.
On Windows, there is no fork. A new process is created and the relevant parts of the parent process is pickled, sent to the child and unpickled. This only works for picklable objects so code that works in linux may fail in windows.
If you have an object that isn't natively picklable, you can implement __getstate__ and __setstate__ methods that return a pickable subset of the object and rebuild the object from that state. That's been done with the multiprocessing.Queue object. It doesn't include your variable in __getstate__ so the variable isn't included in the child object when its recreated.
An easy solution is to put your data some place else. If that isn't viable, create your own subclass of multiprocessing.Queue and write your own __getstate__ and __setstate__ methods.

Sailing is different in the Northern Territory. Most adventures here begin with a table or esky full of drinks; be it a crewing partnership, a plan to win or at least attend the world championships, or a midnight sail to the pub across the harbour.
Nobody up here keeps proper details or records, but everyone keeps a few good memories.
Like when a cyclone tried to stop Ben Nicholas and Thomas Winter from winning the 1998/99 national championships in Perth.
They were caught out between two rivers on a humid, stormy wet season night somewhere in Western Australia, when they were awoken by water creeping in the doors of the car.
For some unknown reason, the air-conditioning had drained the car battery.
Short of sailing out of a the predicament, the lads got a tow and then used the foam toe strap padding to build a snorkel for the car's air intake, and got through the floodway.
They must have left the engine attached to the toestraps when they went back in the boat, because after winning that nationals, the lads went on to Japan the following year to become the youngest Tasar world champions aged 24 and 19 years old.
Taking a more sensible route to get to the same nationals, Tom's mother Jenny decided on an alternative route to avoid flooding, via Alice Springs.
Along with John Simondson, they were punctured in the Red Centre with an unusual sized wheel.
The resourceful Territorians made a successful raid on Alice Springs dump on Boxing Day, and found a new tyre that brought them only to the gates of Mounts Bay Saililng Club before retyring forever and collapsing in the dinghy park.
Thomas' mother Jenny is responsible for a lot of the antics of the NT Tasar Class - she bought one of the first of the new-fangled Tasars in 1978 having just returned from finishing 16th in the IYRU Women's Sailing World Championship in Holland.
Her Tasar, number 764 and named Nijinski, was the first along with Lawson Beattie's 763, and Chris Done's 765 - which was shipped off to the new town of Kunnunurra in WA, only to return to Darwin under another ownership.
Lawson sewed the seed for the NT Tasar class after going for a sail in one with Tasar designer Frank Bethwaite in Northbridge earlier that year.
Jenny, John, and Tom still regularly sail thier Tasar, number 2072 Bogey Boat, in Darwin.
Bogey Boat got her name from regular class sunset cruises around the harbour, complete with a glass of something from the cockpit-sized esky, a smoked salmon canapé, or a honey sandwich for the kids. The mess in the bilges always looked a bit 'bogey' by the end of the evening.
The start of the season rigging day cocktail party was always a good excuse to get the boat down to the club early in the year.
Sailors traditionally concocted a cocktail named after their boat; people would cringe at the thought of sampling the Bogey cocktail, which was always very green, but could rest assured that there was always a lot of vodka in the Nijinski. A lot of people were led astray with John Plummer's Retarded cocktail though, which turned out to be just plain old water.
There were usually many sore heads the next day, unless people had stuck to the Retarded cocktails.
The cocktail tasting notes, and the next day's racing results, were a subject of much amusement.
On the subject of cocktails, the hospitable manager of the Mandorah Beach Hotel, which is 4km away by water, was always welcoming of a few Tasars who had outstayed their welcome in the sailing club bar.
After greeting them by torchlight, he would offer a warming glass of gluhwein on the beach and a refreshing swim in the pool.
The younger hands were given leave to return to their Tasar cockpit quarters on the return journey to Fannie Bay.
Younger hands were useful for underweight boats, especially that of 14-year-olds Amy Nicholas and Claire Wharton at the 1993 Darwin nationals, who were 30kg below the minimum required crew weight.
Rather than fill their boat with lead, the girls plucked 10-year-old Victoria Winter as a third crewmember aboard Tasar number 1047 Crystal Ship.
At the other end of the weighing scale, Peter Chilman and Jenny Simondson were probably the heaviest crew at the 2003 Port Lincoln nationals, at a quarter tonne.
Despite the laid-back attitude to sailing, the Top End has produced its share of competitive sailors, boasting world and national champions, including two female national champions in Jenny Simondson (Darwin 1993) and Fiona McManus (Sydney 2011).
Despite the distance, Darwin sailors will always make an effort to represent the Territory at national and international events, in large or small numbers.
As a tune up to hosting the 2005 world championships in Darwin, seven crews made their way across the desert, mostly in convoy, the 2800km to Mission Beach for the 2004 nationals.
Where most would see the drive as a chore, the NT crowd made it into a four-day party.
The Top End sailors brought their magic with them and persuaded a standing record turnout of 131 boats at the Darwin worlds the following year.
Competitors came from Japan, Holland, UK, USA and Canada, and a massive 22 local boats also launched from Darwin.
There was a rush on Tasar ownership in Darwin preceding the Worlds and boats were begged, borrowed and bribed out of back sheds for a quick polish before the regatta.
Travelling 800km or so to the nearest neighbouring Tasar fleet in Kununurra, WA, for the Green Season Regatta was an annual Easter outing for Top End boats, and two or three Sandgroper crews returned the favour to compete in the NT Champs every year.
The Argyle regatta was ressurected in 2013, and a handful of Tasars have travelled each Easter since.
The Kununurra squad has dwindled in recent years to two boats, number 1921 is owned by the club, and Guinnevere 1671 owned by stalwart Torben Sass-Neilson, but they are hopeful the recently-rejuvenated club will produce Tasar sailors in years to come.
Darwin Tasar sailors competed for the Royal Brunei Yacht Club/Darwin Sailing Club Team Racing Challenge Cup, held in alternate years in Brunei and Darwin in the early 1980s.
The event stopped for one reason or another, but the bar flies are talking of a resurrection.
1978 IYRU Woman's world champion Lyndall Coxon-Patterson once led the Darwin squad of twelve to the Asian event.
Tasars were used when competing in Darwin and Laser 2s were used in Brunei.
There has been no science to Tasar turnouts at local club racing.
There was 8-12 Tasars racing regularly in Fannie Bay During the early 1980s right through to early 2000s, and this sometimes increased to 15-18 Tasars on the start line for the NT Championships.
Tasar designer Frank Bethwaite also competed in one of the early NT Tasar Championships, sailed with Ginny Chadderton (we think), and was getting some good results.
NT class founder Lawson Beattie recalled that competitor Ray Richardson lodged a protest against Frank because he was not a Territorian and not eligible to win a prize.
Frank got the last dig however; as he was quoted in a subsequent Australian Sailing article stating that the NT still sailed under some draconian rules.
We also had some draconian sailing methods; Andrew 'Hardhat' Hartley was so named because he always wore a construction site hard hat while sailing after too many encounters with the boom.
The laid-back lifestyle of the Territory is reflected in its sailors.
Fundraising to host a championship or send a few sailors somewhere was sometimes more a social event than an effective method of gathering money.
Bottling home-made wine never seemed to make much profit but was a lot of fun.
There were months were spent flogging raffle tickets at the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets and Parap Markets for a Minnow dinghy that Ian Battenburg built and donated, and there were also frequent Saturdays spent sweltering in the Bunnings car park barbequing endless amounts of sausages.
In July of every year it also became tradition to hold the Annual Tasar Christmas Party.
July is the coolest time of the year up here and just the right weather to tuck into the traditional baked turkey and plum pudding.
For many years this was held on the beach near the sailing club.
As soon as the festively-decorated tables and chairs started sinking into the incoming tide the party would creep up the beach.
On some occasions it was even cold enough to build bonfires to warm the wet toes.
Darwin hosts the national championship every half-dozen years, most recently in 2012, and has been scheduled to host again in 2018.
You can see historic photos from the Tasar Worlds in Darwin in 2005, plus many other archives on the Territory Stories website.


I'm not counting, but Christmas is just twenty days away! To get in the Christmas spirit, I would suggest going out and immersing yourself in Christmas, and an easy way to do that is it visit spots with incredible Christmas light displays. This year, we've assembled the top five places within three hours of campus to go and get in the Christmas spirit.

Wubba lubba dub dub! Yet another free content update has hit Pocket Mortys (Free) and adds even more incentives for fervent Morty trainers to collect 'em all. First and foremost, 11 brand new Mortys are added into the wild, providing even more bizarre, disgusting and/or incredible variations to catch. Whether you prefer your Morty to be infected, made of goo or having numerous different appendages on his face, there surely will be something for everyone and even more options of Mortys to lead into battle. The most interesting variant, however, appears to be the Morty fanboy Morty, which is Mortyception if there ever was such a thing.
This isn't the only addition to Pocket Mortys, as new attacks Poison and Absorb are added to the game (both of which feel strangely familiar to another particular turn based RPG), as well as items Poison Cure and Courier Flap, the latter of which takes you back to the central Citadel hub. Finally, the addition of a Move Tutor Morty Labs allows you to re-learn moves you have forgotten previously in the game, so that regardless of the age of your Morty you can still teach it whatever attacks you want, and you can change your Morty's play style based on the other team members you bring with you. Certainly a welcome update, if only to help plug the gap during the excruciatingly long wait before Season 3 of the show.

Pembroke College Boat Club is the rowing club for members of Pembroke College, Cambridge. Over the last century, crews from Pembroke have held the headship of the men's Lent Bumps on four occasions, and the headship of the men's May Bumps ten times. The men's 1st VIII spent their entire history in the 1st division of both events, apart from poor performances in the Lent Bumps 2000 and the May Bumps 2003, and the crew is usually found in the top half of the division. The women's 1st VIII first raced in 1985, and have not yet taken the headship of the Lent Bumps, but took the headship of the May Bumps in 1997, 1998, 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2010.

Year-to-Date Sales Statistics at the Lake of the Ozarks - January through October.
The sales data for the total number of sales at the Lake of the Ozarks indicates that 2009 and 2010 transactions were VERY similar. There have been only 7 more transactions year-to-date this year compared to last year. With a struggling economy, this is probably good news.

Owner took really good care of making sure things were perfect for me. I enjoyed the place, had an excellent time and accomplished my goals of self care and charging myself with new energy. Comfortable, safe, quiet and wonderful area, would recomend to anyone who is looking to rekindle themselves, and want quality time with family.
Location was perfect. Had lots of snow that just added to the charm andcoziness of the cabin.
Great place with plenty of sleeping room! Fenced yard was nice for the dog!!!
Overall we enjoyed our stay. However, we ran out of every essential required...toilet paper, tissues, paper towels. The place should be stocked with extras to avoid having to purchase this. We didn't use excess amounts or anything. Also, the main fireplace doesn't work and it would have been great to be able to use it, especially since the electricity went out for hours while we were there. The master bed was also very small and the sheets didn't fit.
We supply plenty of starter rolls of toilet paper & paper towels for your stay. We also supply soap, hand soap, laundry detergent, baggies, tin foil, garbage bags, spices, paper plates & napkins. The fireplace in bedroom wood burning works & family room has BOTH wood burning (not work) but gas fireplace....3 feet away does work. Master bed is a Queen.
I loved this cute cabin. The owner was very responsive and answered all of my questions. The yard was perfect and it was so peaceful and quiet. Thank you for a great weekend! We will be back!
We just loved the cabin. It was as cozy as expected. Our dog loved it so much too, thank you for making us feel welcome.

FROM WIRE REPORTS Oct. 18, 2012 Updated: Oct. 18, 2012 10:24 p.m.
KANSAS CITY - TransCanada Corp. has temporarily shut down its existing 2,100-mile Keystone pipeline after tests showed possible safety issues, a federal agency said Thursday.
Jeannie Layson, spokeswoman for the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, which oversees pipelines in the U.S., said no leaks were detected on the line, which moves on average about 500,000 barrels of crude a day from Alberta, Canada, down through several states to facilities in Illinois and Oklahoma.
She said the possible problems were located on the stretch of pipeline that extends between Missouri and Illinois.
A federal inspector was deployed to review test results, observe repairs and monitor any additional necessary safety issues, Layson said.
Grady Semmens, spokesman for Calgary-based TransCanada, said the pipeline was shut down Wednesday as a precaution and was expected to restart Saturday.
MINNEAPOLIS - A Minneapolis man accused of helping send young men through a terrorist pipeline from Minnesota to Somalia was convicted Thursday on all five terrorism-related charges he faced, including one that could land him in prison for life.
Chief U.S. District Judge Michael Davis has not set a sentencing date for Mahamud Said Omar, 46.
Omar, a mosque janitor, was the first man to stand trial in the government's investigation into what it says was the recruitment of more than 20 men who have left Minnesota since 2007 to join al-Shabab, a U.S.-designated terrorist group linked to al-Qaida.
TULSA - A massive dust storm swirling reddish-brown clouds over northern Oklahoma triggered a multi-vehicle accident along a major interstate Thursday, forcing police to shut down part of the roadway.
In a scene reminiscent of the Dust Bowl days, choking dust suspended on strong wind gusts shrouded Interstate 35, which links Dallas and Oklahoma City to Kansas City, Mo. Video from television station helicopters showed the four-lane highway virtually disappearing into billowing dust on the harsh landscape near Blackwell, plus dozens of vehicles scattered in the median and on the shoulders.

Foreign secretary Jack Straw urged the United Nations yesterday to support an arms trade treaty to help defeat international terrorism and political instability.
The government has reached an agreement with the travel industry to offer cheaper holidays to families in an attempt to deter parents from taking their children on trips during the school term.
Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy has said that only his party presents a "credible alternative" to Labour.
The defence secretary John Reid has said that Britain would increase the number of its soldiers deployed in Iraq if necessary.
Conservative leadership contender Ken Clarke has warned that his party risks being replaced as the official opposition by the Liberal Democrats if it fails to win the next election.

Will the Next Miss America Wear Combat Boots?
There is a Miss America contestant this year whose platform is "Empowering Women: Overcoming Stereotypes and Breaking Barriers."
Susan Kraus, MSW, LSCSW, Contributor
Therapist/Mediator/Writer
Sep 3, 2013, 04:45 PM EDT | Updated Dec 6, 2017
Her name is Theresa Marie Vail, Miss Kansas, and she'll be breaking a few barriers herself.
Theresa is in the military. She enlisted in the Army National Guard, raised her right hand and took the oath to "support and defend" just three weeks after her 17th birthday. She completed basic training the summer between her junior and senior years of high school, and AIT (Advanced Individual Training) as a mechanic between high school and college. She was the only woman in her class, and graduated #1. After three years she transferred to a medical detachment and went to dental tech school where she also graduated at the top of her class.
She's not the first contestant to be in the military. There's been one: Miss Utah 2007, Jill Stephens, a medic in the Utah National Guard. They have similarities: commitment to service, dedication to country, and almost no experience as a contestant.
Theresa entered her first pageant just nine months ago.
"I never thought about it until a mentor, in my unit, explained how the recognition could help with what I want to do as a role model," Theresa explained in a recent interview.
As a child she was teased and bullied, and was shy and insecure as a result. But she overcame obstacles, relied on her religious faith, and worked very hard to become the leader she is today.
Theresa is a young woman who excels. Now 22, she's a Kansas State University senior with a double major in Chemistry and Chinese (with a 3.8 GPA in Chinese) - the first because she wants to be a dentist and the second because it's a challenge. Theresa loves a challenge. Tell her she can't do something and then stand back and watch her go.
She's an expert marksman on the M 16. She's an expert bow hunter. She skydives. She boxes. She's working on a private pilot license. She started motorcycle racing but stopped after a crash in which she broke all the fingers her right hand (hard to be a good dentist without flexible fingers.)
With pageant festivities back this year in Atlantic City (where Miss America began in 1921), the "Show Us Your Shoes Parade" will return to the famed boardwalk. The September 14th parade will be televised live for the first time ever (and will be lead-in to the pageant itself on the 15th). This is where contestants flash extravagantly decorated, often state-themed, girly-girly high heels to laughing crowds yelling "Show us your shoes."
Only Theresa will be in uniform, wearing combat boots instead of four-inch heels.
When it comes to the bathing suit competition, Theresa will be breaking another barrier: she'll be the first contestant ever with visible tattoos. No itty-bitty rose hidden under a bikini top for this girl. She has the insignia for the U.S. Army Dental Corps on her left shoulder. The Serenity Prayer ("God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and Wisdom to know the difference") flows down her right side.
"It's my personal mission statement," Theresa said.
Of course, Theresa is also - if one can use this description for someone trained to shoot to kill - drop-dead gorgeous.
When asked about what she is most proud of, she grinned.
"I just got promoted. I made sergeant," she said. "And I re-enlisted for six years."
So, if things get wild in Atlantic City in a few weeks, this would be another Miss America first: Here she comes, Miss America ... Miss Kansas... Sgt. Theresa Marie Vail.

Disavowed
ST Section 31: Disavowed
"Murder is murder, regardless of whether it is committed by an individual, a group of persons, or the state." – Disavowed, David Mack
Disavowed is the brilliant result of multiple spy plots intersecting one another, bringing together the standard and 'mirror' universes. Following Rise like Lions, a political entity much like the Federation has established itself in the Mirror Universe, and is strengthened by a hidden organization called Memory Omega. Established by Emperor Spock to conceal itself and to become a galactic puppetmaster, Memory Omega functioned rather like Hari Seldon intended the Second Foundation to function in his attempt to shorten the galactic dark age and create a second Republic. Because of Omega, the nascent Commonwealth has tremendous weapons at its disposal — weapons the Breen of the standard universe have caught wind of, and are planning a covert invasion of the mirror universe in order to steal. Section 31, the amoral organization which pledges itself to protect the Federation without sanction or oversight, which previously nearly effected genocide by turning Constable Odo into a Typhoid Marry, is intent on preventing the Breen from gaining this kind of advantage — and to help scotch the Breen's plan, they are putting Julian Bashir — who is helping them only because of the threat the Breen might pose with these weapons — into play. But there's always another level of conspiracy, and before this one runs its course we'll see a Dominion invasion of the mirror Alpha Quadrant, a beloved character on trial, and a faction who are even better at pulling strings than Section 31. This is, in short, a very cool book.
Many years ago one of Trek lit's best miniseries hit the shelves: Section 31, telling stories of that very interesting organization as it acted in TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY; I was very glad to see their return, especially under the able pen of David Mack. Mack here writes a sequel to both Rise like Lions and The Fall series, bringing two universes together, and allows us to spend time with a lot of beloved characters who are long gone in the standard universe, but still active in the mirror. People like Weyoun, that merry villain, and Eddington — a rebel in one universe, an admired head of state here. And not to mention Saavik, whether you're imagining her as Kirstie Alley or Robin Curtis. We get glimpses of some of Section 31's toys, there are the expected allusions ("Not good enough, damn it, not good enough! — thank you, Captain Picard), and a fair bit of comedy to balance out what is one edge of the seat moment after another. Bashir, for instance, is entering Section 31's service as a double agent; he intends to work for them only to bring them down, and so does his girlfriend. When she 'seduces' him into joining 31, however, members of 31 are in fact observing them and mocking their poor acting skills…even the Vulcan. Why 31 is still using Bashir and Sarina Douglas is one of the wheels-within-wheels ops that won't be unveiled until the end. We also receive regular insights into the Breen and into the mirror-Dominion, who are..very much the same, but different in an important way.
This is a thoroughly gripping tale, and I'm looking forward to the sequel, Control.
"Because this isn't about strength. Justice isn't decided by power. It isn't born through the force of arms. It comes from people of conscience taking responsibility for their own lives—and accepting the consequences of their actions."

sounds like more quality writing from David Mack… i quite enjoyed the last one(s) you recommended by him… i'll get this one and read it if i can manage to tear myself away from the golden age mystery/detective novels i've been caught up in lately… they're addictive, i've found…
The Kindle versions are or were on sale for 99 cents each, hence my buying them this early. I was planning on waiting until I'd finished my other Trek stuff, but a sale is a sale…
gracias for the tip..

What You Need to Know About Treating COVID-19 With Monoclonal Antibodies
In November 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued emergency use authorization for monoclonal antibody infusion to treat COVID-19. The agency first authorized Eli Lilly's bamlanivimab on November 9, followed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals' dual treatment of casirivimab and imdevimab on November 21.
But before you get too excited about the potential of these COVID-19 treatments, you need to understand that research into their effectiveness and safety is ongoing. They're also not authorized for everybody. This means you can't stop practicing mitigation strategies like wearing a mask, social distancing and hand-washing.
We know there's a lot of information out there about monoclonal antibody infusion that can be hard to understand. So, we dug into the FDA's website and talked with OhioHealth's system director of Infection Diseases Joseph Gastaldo, MD, to bring clarity in answering your top questions.
What are monoclonal antibodies?
Monoclonal antibodies are laboratory-made proteins that imitate an immune response, improving the body's ability to fight off viruses. Bamlanivimab, casirivimab and imdevimab (try saying that three times fast!) are all monoclonal antibodies. These tongue twisters were created to target the COVID-19 virus' SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which helps the virus infect people.
The FDA approved emergency use authorization for two COVID-19 infusion therapies using monoclonal antibodies: one that only uses bamlanivimab, and another that combines casirivimab and imdevimab.
You can't stop practicing mitigation strategies like wearing a mask, social distancing and hand-washing.
Bamlanivimab infusion
Bamlanivimab is a single-dose, intravenously (IV)-administered COVID-19 treatment.
What does the research show?
Bamlanivimab went through two phases of clinical trials. The second phase was randomized and double-blind, meaning neither the participant nor those running the study were aware of who received bamlanivimab or the placebo. There was a total of 465 participants, all with mild to moderate COVID-19 symptoms. When given within three days of symptom onset, this study suggested that bamlanivimab not only lowers the amount of virus present, or viral load, but also may help slow progression of COVID-19.
Who is included in the bamlanivimab emergency use authorization?
The emergency use authorization covers anyone who is 12 years or older, weighing at least 88 pounds, who received a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result and is at high risk for developing severe symptoms. This includes people 65 and older and those with preexisting, chronic medical conditions.
The treatment is not authorized for patients who have been hospitalized or require oxygen therapy due to COVID-19.
Casirivimab and imdevimab infusion
Casirivimab and imdevimab are simultaneously administered by IV in a single dose to treat COVID-19.
Treatment with the combination of casirivimab and imdevimab was studied in one randomized, double-blind clinical trial. The study had 799 participants, all with mild to moderate COVID-19 symptoms. The results were similar to the bamlanivimab trials. Only 3% of the participants treated with casirivimab and imdevimab had to be hospitalized, compared to 9% of placebo-treated participants. The viral load in participants treated with casirivimab and imdevimab significantly decreased by the seventh day of the study.
Who is included in the casirivimab and imdevimab emergency use authorization?
The combination treatment is not authorized for patients who have been hospitalized or require oxygen therapy due to COVID-19.
If you think you may have come into contact with someone who has COVID-19, call your primary care doctor or the Ohio Department of Health call center. The call center is now open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. to answer your COVID-19 questions, and can be reached at 1 (833) 4-ASK-ODH (1 (833) 427-5634).
Want to learn more about monoclonal antibody infusion at OhioHealth? Check out our website or call (614) 544.4000, our phone line is open Monday-Friday 8am-4pm.

From 2011 through October 2014, the IRS has stopped 19 million suspicious tax returns and protected more than $63 billion in fraudulent refunds. That's good, but some of the other figures are less so. Are your dates, numbers and passwords safe? It's become a near obsession, with good reason. This tax filing season started with new and alarming incidences of identity theft.
And right on cue, the Government Accountability Office has released a new report. Even though it is based on past numbers, it is revealing. The IRS is wracked by budget cuts, and has all the usual tax season issues of seasonal employees and technical problems. This year, it is made worse by additional burdens of implementing Obamacare, coupled with a sharp uptick in identity fraud filing problems. It's not a pretty picture, and the report says change is needed.
The report was issued by the Government Accountability Office, which notes that the IRS is trying hard to centralize its efforts to authenticate taxpayers. On the good side, the IRS estimates it prevented $24.2 billion in fraudulent identity theft refunds in 2013. Still, the IRS actually paid out $5.8 billion in fraudulent refunds that it realized were fraudulent only later. Also, there may be fraudulent refunds not included in these numbers. The IRS may never know just how many dollars of fraudulent refunds it has paid.
Classically, 'identity theft refund fraud' occurs when an identity thief uses a legitimate taxpayer's identifying information. The thief files a fraudulent tax return and claims a refund. The IRS wants to combat identity theft-related tax fraud, but the GAO says the IRS lacks a good estimate of the costs, benefits and risks. A lot of the GAO's critique has to do with assumptions and uncertainties.
GAO says the IRS hasn't assessed the level of uncertainty in its numbers. The culprits, say the IRS, are its resource constraints as well as methodological challenges. Yet the GAO report says this could matter—a lot. Making different assumptions could affect identity theft tax fraud estimates by billions of dollars. The GAO recommends that the IRS improve its fraud estimates and document its underlying analysis. The IRS has agreed.
If you previously contacted the IRS and did not have a resolution, contact the Identity Protection Specialized Unit.

Manure Clash Adds To Bizarre Pollution Exclusion Case Law
Bat droppings, restaurant aromas, pig farm stink and cow manure may not fall on your list of classic pollutants, but whether the pollution exclusion applies to them is another story. Wrangling between policyholders and insurers over the proper place for the contentious exclusion has produced a series of unexpected rulings in recent years.
In one of the latest decisions, a Wisconsin appeals court mulled whether the pollution exclusion nixed coverage for losses caused by cow manure that polluted a local aquifer and contaminated water wells. Pollution exclusions typically bar coverage for damages that stem from the release of contaminants or irritants, as defined in each insurance policy.
Noting that farmers see manure as "liquid gold" rather than a contaminant, the appeals court held Dec. 11 that cow manure was not a "pollutant" and refused to apply the pollution exclusion.
That followed rulings from the Wisconsin Supreme Court that bat guano — a mixture of bat feces and urine — was a pollutant in a homeowners coverage dispute, but that carbon dioxide in an office building did not count as a pollutant.
"That just shows you how the standard that Wisconsin courts apply to the pollution exclusion can probably create diverging opinions, even within the state for the same type of release," Brian Margolies, a partner at Traub Lieberman Straus & Shrewsberry LLP, said. "To farmers, cow manure is liquid gold. To me or you, that's not the case,"
Margolies said some state high courts have yet to speak on when to apply the pollution exclusion, while others have adopted varying methods for tackling the divisive question. Some courts agree with policyholders that the pollution must be the traditional type for the exclusion to apply, while others take insurers' advice and apply it more broadly.
"The substances that are often cited as pollutants in these cases are not the type of thing you would imagine if I said, 'Name a few pollutants," said Nicholas Maxwell, a policyholder attorney at Anderson Kill PC. "Courts wrestle with whether to apply it without thinking of the real world or to apply it [considering] policyholder's reasonable expectations."
A couple of the quirkiest pollution exclusion cases that Margolies recalled were triggered by restaurant odors — and prompted different outcomes.
The Second Circuit took up a case brought against a well-known deli specializing in fish in Manhattan's Upper West Side started by Barney Greengrass, dubbed the "Sturgeon King."
A tenant who shared Barney Greengrass' building complained that the deli's odors were a nuisance, claims that later sparked a coverage fight revolving around the pollution exclusion. The Second Circuit ruled in July 2010 that it would be unreasonable to call restaurant odors "pollution" when many find the deli's aromas pleasant, citing a Zagat review that remarked, "The smells alone are worth the price of admission."
But a year later, another federal circuit found that the pollution exclusion can indeed be applied to restaurant aromas.
The Eleventh Circuit concluded that under Alabama law, the pollution exclusion applied to curry odors that seeped from an Indian restaurant into a fur shop next door through a shared air conditioning duct, causing the store's inventory to smell of curry.
In 2012, a federal court in Pennsylvania held that a different kind of odor — those coming from a pig farm — also qualified as a pollutant under a total pollution exclusion.
Neighbors of commercial farms argued that the smell of pig excrement that was used as fertilizer made them suffer nausea, vomiting, headaches and respiratory problems, and that it worsened their medical conditions. Focusing on these alleged injuries, the federal judge held that the "noxious odors" from the pig farm were pollutants.
In recent years, courts have come out on opposite sides in pollution exclusion battles involving defective Chinese drywall that released sulfur gases, damaging property and causing injuries.
Laura Foggan, chair of Wiley Rein LLP's insurance appellate group, said that by her count, four out of five federal appeals court cases dealing with the pollution exclusion in 2013 came out in favor of insurers.
"Looking at 2013, the courts were quite kind to insurers on the pollution exclusion," Foggan said.
Colorado's Supreme Court earlier this year enforced the pollution exclusion in a case where a policyholder regularly poured cooking grease into a sewer, causing a clog and hydrogen sulfide fumes, while Minnesota's high court found the exclusion applied to a carbon monoxide leak caused by a boiler.
Foggan argues that courts should strictly stick to the policy language, instead of relying on "made up rules" asking courts to look at a policyholder's reasonable expectations or restricting the exclusion to traditional pollution contexts.
"The insurers would say the core test is really just applying the policy language to the facts," Foggan said. "Gasoline may be good, but when it's in the wrong place, it's acting as a pollutant, and that's what the exclusion is about."
According to David Elkind, a Dickstein Shapiro LLP partner and head of the insurance group's energy practice, there are pollution exclusion cases that are close calls, but the cow manure litigation in Wisconsin was not one of those.
"I found it unbelievable that an insurance company would sell a farmer a policy and claim that manure was a pollutant, and that the lower court would actually side with the insurance company on this," Elkind said. "Anything that is either naturally occurring or a product is hard to conceive as a pollutant."
Regardless of where attorneys stand on the pollution exclusion, they can perhaps agree that the case involving the most gruesome circumstances was one that Maxwell, the Anderson Kill attorney, worked on pro bono.
According to Maxwell, Allstate Insurance Co. had relied on the pollution exclusion to block coverage for Patricia Johnston, a then-84 year-old resident of San Diego County. After returning from a vacation in Utah, Johnston found the man that she hired to work on her house had died in her living room, sitting on a chair in front of the TV for several days, according to the complaint.
The intense summertime heat caused the man's body to swell up, turn black and decay, and his body fluids soaked into the carpet, carpet padding and into the wooden floor, the complaint said.
Citing the pollution exclusion, Allstate initially denied coverage for Johnston's costs, though the insurer later entered into a confidential settlement with the woman, according to Maxwell.
"The fact that they asserted the pollution exclusion was laughable," Maxwell said. "It's a particularly egregious example because you're talking about an elderly woman as opposed to a sophisticated corporation. That's what really stuck out to us."

75        EARLY FROST       <NA>
76         EARLY RAIN       <NA>

both are merged into df_new by evtype
library(dplyr)
df_new <- left_join(a, b, by = c("EVTYPE"))
STATE       EVTYPE           evmatch

15    AL    TSTM WIND THUNDERSTORM WIND

When I join the two, I end up with a dataset that has more obs than the original.
I.e. a has 6000 obs and df_new has 69400.
How can I merge both datasets so that the resulting df is the same of the original dataframe.
context:
The original dataset has multiple typos/spellings for the same weather event, i.e. dust devel, dust devil.
In order to run analysis, each observation needs standard spelling. For example, I am unable to run analysis on dust devil because of the multiple observations of the same event have different spellings.
I've created a "dictionary" that has the official spelling for each event type, i.e.  dust devel, dust devil are both dust devil and tstm wind is thunderstorm wind
I want to add a column onto the original dataset, showing the correct spelling for each weather event.
However, my resulting dataset has extra rows.

A: Your b table has duplicates, replace b by unique(b) and you should be fine.
df_new <- left_join(a, unique(b))

"Left join" just means all rows from a will be used, even if they don't have matches in b. If they have several matches in b, you'll get additional lines in df_new.

Shenzhen-based Chinese delivery company SF Express is in the early stages of putting drones in the skies that can deliver packages to remote areas according to the South China Morning Post.
SF Express has begun testing the drones in Guangdong province's Dongguan city, and SCMP reports that the drones are "outfitted with eight propellers, comes complete with a space where packages can be inserted and can reach a flight altitude of about 100 meters."
The idea of using drones for delivery is nothing new. Even delivering pizza's via drone has been contemplated and tried along with all kinds of other unusual things. Though in the United States, a major hurdle for getting drones into the air for such worthwhile endeavors as pizza delivery is hampered by the fact that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) does not currently allow drones for commercial use in U.S. airspace.
Because of the early stage of commercial drone development and current flight restrictions, UPS and FedEx deliverymen need not worry about losing their jobs to sky robots quite yet.
But if courier companies like SF Express — essentially a UPS of the East — can make significant inroads in development and implementation of package-delivering drones, then parcels-via-drone suddenly becomes much closer to reality, at least for smaller package transportation.
Gentler than a delivery man?
While the SF Express drones are being developed with the intention of reaching difficult-to-get-to remote areas, it's hard not to imagine the potential benefits of having drone "deliverymen."
The reasons why a company might want to add drones to a delivery fleet are apparent. They can reach remote locations where there are no roads. They can be pre-programmed with destination coordinates and can effectively fly in a straight line depending on altitude maximums (the SF Express drone has a ceiling of 100 meters).
The use of drones can also cut down on fuel costs associated with delivery. Why send a truck that takes fuel when you could send a drone and recharge the battery?
Just think of it, someday you could stand out on your front porch, morning coffee in hand, look up and watch as a whole buzzing network of drones go about their business delivering goods ... and pizzas.

I do most of these, except for the water kefir as I have heard it can be problematic for those with candida. Buying bottled water is annoying though, I have to go back to the shops every few days for several bottles. I love chia and flax seeds – they're a great substitute for eggs (which I'm sensitive to) in coconut flour baked goods.
Unfortunately, if you drink fluoride, water is not absorbed by the body properly, and so you can't heal. Your mitochondria remain in a state of dehydration, no matter how much you drink. I'd suggest reading Dr Kruse's articles on this.

Q: Mapping a react component doesn't return to the parent component I have a two components. One component Profileviewlist is a child of Profileview mapping components inside of Profileviewlist returns a child component outside of Profileview . I have been looking around on this site for this issue. I am looking for a way to get Profileviewlist's components to render inside of Profileview. Any insight helps.
Note: The components render , just not in the parent(profileview).
Profile view:
import React from 'react'
import Profileviewheader from './profileviewheader'
import Profileviewlist from './Profileviewlist'

export default function Profileview({ persons, display_selector }) {
  if (persons == null || persons.status == "error") {
    return (
      <Profileviewheader />
    )
  }
  else {
    console.log("rendering list")
    console.log()
    return (
      <>
        <Profileviewheader />
        <Profileviewlist persons={persons} display_selector={display_selector} />
      </>
    )
  }
}

** Profile view list:**
import React from 'react'
import Profileviewchild from './profileviewchild';

export default function Profileviewlist({ persons, display_selector }) {
  return (
    persons.map(person => {
      return <Profileviewchild person={person} change_selected={display_selector} />
    })
  )
}

Parental Hierarchy(the way I would like the components to be structured in the form of divs) Each component points to its child:
Profileview:->
Profileviewlist:->
Profileviewchild:

A: As I understood you have a list of personal profiles, you should make a ternary operator for checking if persons not null and have a length then map into them, else show an error.
Something like this should work:
export default function Profileview({ persons, display_selector }) {
  return (

      <Profileviewheader />
      {persons.length ? persons.map(person => (
        <Profileviewchild person={person} change_selected={display_selector} />
      )) :

{persons.status}
}

  )
}

Edit:
After checking the shared picture, the problem is you assign id="profileview" on the Profileviewheader. you should assign this component.

A: The issue is occurring by persons in Profileview and Profileviewlist
Here the type of persons seems to be Object.
So persons.map() will never work since map is the method of Array not Object. The ideal way is that persons have list key field.
{
   status: 'success',
   list: [...] // persons list
}

   ...
   <Profileviewlist persons={persons.list} display_selector={display_selector} />
   ...

Kyjov ( je vesnice a část města Krásná Lípa v Ústeckém kraji v okrese Děčín. Nachází se na rozhraní Děčínské vrchoviny a Lužických hor v nadmořské výšce okolo 370 metrů nad řekou Křinicí, asi tři kilometry západně od Krásné Lípy. V roce 2011 zde trvale žilo 21 obyvatel.

Název
Název vesnice je odvozen z osobního jména ve významu Kyjův dvůr nebo Kyjův hrad. V historických pramenech se objevuje ve tvarech: de Kyaw (1377, 1398), Kygaw (1414) a Khaa (1787, 1833).

Historie
První písemná zmínka o obci pochází z roku 1377.

Již v roce 1884 se tu ustavil Horský spolek pro Kyjovské údolí, který zpřístupňoval zajímavé skalní útvary. Do poloviny 20. století tvořili obyvatelstvo obce čeští Němci. Po druhé světové válce byli němečtí starousedlíci vysídleni a obec se takřka úplně vylidnila.

Přírodní poměry
Mezi Kyjovem a Dlouhý Dolem napříč údolím Křinice prochází geologická linie lužického zlomu, rozhraní mezi kvádrovými pískovci a brtnickou žulou. Jižně od údolí se vyskytuje malý ostrůvek jurských vápenců – podobně jako na Vápenném vrchu.

Většina katastrálního území Kyjov u Krásné Lípy leží v Lužických horách, ale větší část vesnice se nachází na východním okraji Děčínské vrchoviny a do severní části území zasahuje také Šluknovská pahorkatina.

Ve vesnici se nachází Kyjovská přehrada s možností koupání.

Obyvatelstvo

Pamětihodnosti
 Při hlavní silnici stojí kaple Korunování a Nanebevzetí Panny Marie z roku 1832.

CAANAN SERIES- Hillside Memorial Park Reliefs
12 feet tall x
30 feet wide.
Bronze, traverine, and blue granite.
I assisted my mother, Mary Ann Devine, in creating the Caanan Memorial at Hillside Memorial Park in 1992. Mary Ann Devine first created many drawings for the four panels as well as small maquettes for the figures. The full size figures were sculpted in clay, then molded and cast in wax. The wax forms were cast in bronze at West Coast Sculptors' Foundry. Slabs of stone were carefully selected, then cut and broken to create the background elements of mountains, water and the temple, also the decorative framing elements. Mary Ann Devine chose to depict four pivotal scenes in the history of the Jewish people- Jacob Wrestling With the Angel, Moses Parting the Reeds, Moses Receiving the Ten Commandments, and Aaron Before the Temple.
