After years in the United States, Jane returns to the tranquil Scottish estate, Elvie, where she spent a magical childhood. Memories of Elvie had always summoned the image of Sinclair, the rakish man Jane had once dreamed of marrying, but now that she is home, she finds Sinclair a different man. His charm has a purpose, and Jane can no longer trust him...or herself, in The End of Summer.

A world filled with evocative, engrossing, and above all, enjoyable portraits of people's lives and loves, tenderly laid open for us...

All summer long the weather had been heavy and clouded, the warmth of the sun blanketed by sea fogs which had continually rolled in from the Pacific. But by September, as so often happens in California, the fogs retreated, far out into the ocean, where they lay along the edge of the horizon, sullen as a long bruise.
Inland, beyond the coastal range, farmlands, heavy with crops, with bursting fruit, and corn and artichokes, and orange pumpkins, simmered in the sunshine. Small wooden townships dozed, skewered by the heat, grey and dusty as specimen moths. The plains, rich and fertile, stretched east to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, and through it all arrowed the great freeway of the Camino Real, north to San Francisco, and south to Los Angeles, crammed and glittering with the hot steel of a million cars.
Through the summer months, the beach had been deserted, for Reef Point was the end of the line and seldom patronized by the casual day tripper. For one thing, the road was unsurfaced, unsafe, and uninviting. For another, the little resort of La Carmella, with its charming tree-shaded streets, exclusive country club and spotless motels, lay just over the point, and anyone with sense and a few dollars to spare, stayed put right there. Only if you were adventurous, or broke, or surfing mad, did you risk the last mile and come slipping and scrambling over the dirt track that led down to this great, empty, storm-washed bay.
But now, with the fine hot weather and the clean rolling breakers pouring up on to the beach, the place flowered with people. Cars of all sorts came tumbling down the hill, to park in the shade beneath the cedars, and disgorge picnickers, campers, surfers and whole families of hippies, newly wearied of San Francisco, and heading south for New Mexico and the sun, like so many migrating birds. And the weekends brought the University students up from Santa Barbara in their old convertibles and their flower-stickered Volkswagens, all packed with girls and crates of canned beer, and hung about with the big brightly-coloured Malibu surf boards. They set up little camps all over the beach and the air was full of their voices and laughter, and the smell of sun oil.
And so, after weeks and months of being virtually on our own, we were surrounded by people and every sort of activity. My father was hard at work, trying to write a script to a deadline, and in an impossible frame of mind. Unnoticed by him, I moved out on to the beach, taking sustenance with me (hamburgers and Coca-Cola), a book to read, a large bath-towel for comfort and Rusty for company.
Rusty was a dog. My dog. A brown woolly thing of indeterminate breed, but great intelligence. When we first moved to the cabin, back in the spring, we hadn't got a dog, and Rusty, spying us, had decided to remedy this. Accordingly he hung around. I chased him off, shooed him away, Father threw old boots at him, still he returned, unrepentant and bearing no malice at all, to sit a yard or two from the back porch, smiling and thumping away with his tail. One hot morning, taking pity on him, I gave him a bowl of cool water to drink. He lapped it clean, then sat down and smiled and started thumping again. The next day, I gave him an old ham bone, which he took politely, removed, buried, and was back again in five minutes. Smiling. Thump, thump, went the tail.
My father came out of the house and threw a boot at him, but without much enthusiasm. It was simply a half-hearted show of force. Rusty knew this and moved in a little nearer.
I said to my father, "Who do you suppose he belongs to?"
"God knows."
"He seems to think he belongs to us."
"You're wrong," said my father. "He thinks we belong to him."
"He's not fierce or anything and he doesn't smell."
He looked up from the magazine he was trying to read. "Are you trying to say you want to keep the bloody thing?"
"It's just that I don't see ... I don't see how we're going to get rid of him."
"Short of shooting him."
"Oh, don't."
"He'll have fleas. Bring fleas into the house."
"I'll buy him a flea collar." Father watched me over his spectacles. I could see he was beginning to laugh. I said, "Please. Why not? He'll be company for me while you're away."
Father said, "All right," so I put on some shoes, then and there, and whistled up the dog, and walked over the hill into La Carmella where there is a very fancy vet's, and there I waited in a little room filled with pampered poodles and Siamese cats, and their various owners, and at last I was let in, and the vet looked at Rusty and pronounced him fit, and gave him an injection, and told me where I could buy a flea collar. So I paid the vet and went out and bought the flea collar, and we walked home again. We came into the house, and Father was still reading his magazine, and the dog came politely in, and after standing around a little, waiting to be asked to sit down, he sat, on the old rug in front of the empty fireplace.
My father said, "What's his name?" and I said, "Rusty," because I'd once had a dog-nightdress-case called Rusty and it was the first name that came into my head.
There was no question of his fitting into the family, because it seemed that he had always belonged. Wherever I went, Rusty came too. He loved the beach, and was forever digging up splendid treasures and bringing them home for us to admire. Old bits of flotsam, plastic detergent bottles, long dangling strips of seaweed. And sometimes things that he had obviously not dug up. A new sneaker, a bright bath-towel, and once a punctured beach-ball, which my father had to replace once I had run its small and weeping owner to earth. He liked to swim too, and always insisted on accompanying me, although I could swim much faster and farther than he could, and he was always tagging behind. You'd have thought he'd have got discouraged, but he never did.
We had been swimming that day, a Sunday. Father, the deadline met, had driven down to Los Angeles to deliver the script in person, and Rusty and I had kept each other company, in and out of the sea all afternoon, gathering shells, playing with an old stick of driftwood. But now it was getting cooler and I had put some clothes on again, and we sat, side by side, the setting sun gold and blinding in our eyes, watching the surfers.
They had been at it all day, but it seemed that they would never tire. Kneeling on their boards, they paddled out to sea, through the breakers to the smooth green water beyond. There they waited, patient, perched on the skyline like so many cormorants, waiting for the swell to gather, to form and finally break. They chose a wave, stood as the water curved up and crested and showed white at its edge, and as it curled over and thundered in, so the surfers came too, riding across the wave, a poem of balance, arrogant with the confidence of youth; riding the wave until it swept up on to the sand, and then stepping casually off, and gathering up the board, and back into the sea again, for the surfer's creed is that there is always a bigger and a better comber, just around the corner, and now the sun was setting and it would soon be dark, and there was not a moment to be lost.
One boy in particular had caught my eye. He was blond, crew cut, very brown, his skinny knee-length shorts the same bright blue as his surf board. He was a wonderful surfer, with a style and a dash that made all the others look clumsy amateurs. But now, as I watched, he seemed to decide to call it a day, for he rode in on a final wave, beached himself neatly, stepped off the board, and with a final long look at the rose-washed evening sea, turned and picked up the surf board and began to walk in up the sand.
I looked away. He came close beside me, and then went on a few yards to where a pile of neatly folded clothes had been waiting. He dropped the surf board and picked up a faded college sweat shirt from the top of the pile. I glanced his way again, and as his face came out of the opening at the top of the sweat shirt, he looked straight at me. Firmly, I met his eye.
He seemed amused. He said, "Hi."
"Hello."
He settled the sweat shirt down over his hips. He said, "Want a cigarette?"
"All right."
He stooped and took a packet of Luckys and a lighter out of a pocket and came over the sand to where I was sitting, and he flipped a cigarette up for me and took one himself and lit them both, and then let himself down beside me, stretching full length and leaning back on his elbows. His legs and his neck and his hair were all lightly dusted with sand, and he had blue eyes and that clean, well-scrubbed look still to be seen on the campuses of American Universities.
He said, "You've been sitting there all afternoon. When you weren't swimming."
"I know."
"Why didn't you join us?"
"I haven't got a surf board."
"You could get one."
"No money."
"Then borrow one."
"There's no one I know to borrow one from."
The young man frowned. "You're British, aren't you?"
"You visiting?"
"No, I live here."
"In Reef Point?"
"Yes." I jerked my head, indicating the line of faded clapboard cabins visible just over the curve of the sand dunes.
"How'd you come to live here?"
"We rented the cabin."
"Who's we?"
"My father and I."
"How long have you been here?"
"Since spring."
"But you're not staying over the winter."
It was a statement of fact more than a question. Nobody stayed in Reef Point over the winter. The houses weren't built to withstand the storms, the access road became impassable, the telephone lines blew down, the electricity failed.
"I think so. Unless we decide to move on."
He frowned. "Are you hippies, or something?"
Knowing how I looked at the time, I kindly did not blame him for asking this question.
"No. But my father writes film scripts and stuff for TV. But he hates Los Angeles so much he refuses to live there, so ... we rented this cabin."
He seemed intrigued. "And what do you do?"
I took up a handful of sand, let it run away, coarse and grey through my fingers.
"Nothing much. Buy food and empty the garbage can and try to keep the sand swept out of the house."
"Is that your dog?"
"What's his name?"
"Rusty."
"Rusty. Hey, Rusty, fella!" Rusty acknowledged his advances with a nod that would have done credit to Royalty and then continued to gaze out to sea. To make up for his lack of manners I said, "Are you from Santa Barbara?"
"Uh-huh." But the young man did not want to talk about himself. "How long have you lived in the States? You still have a terribly terribly British accent."
I smiled politely at a joke heard many times before. "Since I was fourteen. Seven years."
"In California?"
"All over. New York. Chicago. San Francisco."
"Is your father American?"
"No. He just likes it here. He came in the first place because he wrote a novel, and it was bought by a film company and he came to Hollywood to write the script."
"No kidding? Have I heard of him? What's his name?"
"Rufus Marsh."
"You mean, Tall as the Morning?" I nodded. "Boy, I read that cover to cover, when I was still in high school. I got all my sex education out of that book." He looked at me with new interest, and I thought that this was how it always was. They were friendly and quite kind, but never interested until I mentioned Tall as the Morning. I suppose it had something to do with the way I look, because my eyes are pale as sixpences, and my lashes are quite colourless, and my face doesn't go brown but gets splashed and splattered with hundreds of enormous freckles. Besides that, I am too tall for a girl, and the bones in my face all show. "He must be quite a guy."
A new expression had come into his face, puzzled, and crossed with questions that he was obviously going to be too polite to ask.
If you are Rufus Marsh's daughter, how come you're sitting on this god-forsaken beach in the back woods of California wearing patched jeans and a man's shirt that should have been relegated to the rag bag decades ago, and you haven't even got enough dollars raked together to buy yourself a surf board?
He said, following with laughable predictability the line of my own reflections, "What kind of a man is he, anyway? I mean, apart from being a father."
"I don't know." I could never describe him, even to myself. I took another handful of sand, trickled it into a miniature mountain, stubbed my cigarette out on its apex, forming a little crater, a tiny volcano, with a cigarette stub as its smoking core. A man who must always be on the move. A man who makes friends easily and loses them the next day. A quarrelsome, argumentative man, talented to the point of genius, but utterly baffled by the small problems of day-to-day living. A man who can charm and infuriate. A paradox of a man.
I said again, "I don't know," and turned to look at the boy beside me. He was nice. "I'd ask you home for a beer, and then you could meet him and see for yourself. But he's in Los Angeles just now, won't be home until tomorrow morning."
He considered this, scratching thoughtfully at the back of his head and dislodging a small storm of sand.
"Tell you what," he said, "I'm coming back next weekend if the weather holds."
I smiled. "Are you?"
"I'll look out for you."
"I'll bring a spare board. You can surf."
I said, "You don't need to bribe me."
He pretended to be offended. "Whaddya mean, bribe?"
"I'll take you up to meet him next weekend. He likes new faces around the place."
"I wasn't bribing. Honest."
I relented. Besides, I wanted to surf. I said, "I know."
He grinned and stubbed out the cigarette. The sun, sinking towards the edge of the sea, was taking shape and colour—an orange pumpkin of a sun. He sat up, screwing his eyes against its glare, yawned slightly and stretched. He said, "I must go," and stood up and then hesitated for a moment, standing over me. His shadow seemed to stretch forever.
"Goodbye then."
"'Bye."
"Next Sunday."
"O.K."
"That's a date. Don't forget."
"I won't."
He turned and moved off, stopping to collect the rest of his gear, and turning to sketch a final salute before walking away, the length of the beach, to where the old sand-buried cedars marked the track that led up to the road.
I watched him go, and realized that I didn't even know his name. And, worse, he hadn't bothered to ask mine. I was simply Rufus Marsh's daughter. But still, next Sunday, if the weather held, he would maybe be back. If the weather held. That was always something to look forward to.
It was because of Sam Carter that we were living at Reef Point. Sam was my father's agent in Los Angeles, and it was in sheer desperation that he eventually offered to find somewhere cheap for us to live, because Los Angeles and my father were so acutely antipathetic that not one sellable word was he able to write while we lived there, and Sam was in danger of losing both valuable clients and money.
"There's this place at Reef Point," Sam had said. "It's a one-horse set-up, but real peaceful ... end of the world type peace," he added, conjuring up visions of a sort of Gauguin paradise.
And so we had taken a lease on the cabin, and packed all our worldly possessions, which were sadly small, into Father's old beat-up Dodge, and driven here, leaving the smog and rat-race of Los Angeles behind us, and excited as children by the first smell of the sea.
And at first, it had been exciting. After the city it was magic to wake to nothing but the sound of sea birds and the endless thunder of the surf. It was good, in the early mornings, to walk out on to sand, to watch the sun rise over the hills, to hang out a line of washing, and watch it billow and fill with the sea wind, white as new sails.

Key experts for searching gravitational waves from space assemble in Potsdam on May 13-15
The future gravitational wave observatory, LISA, is – in terms of a space mission – approaching fast. On May 13-15, experts in gravitational-wave astrophysics meet at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute/AEI) in Potsdam. They will coordinate the efforts to model a broad spectrum of gravitational wave sources, informed by the needs of LISA's astrophysics, cosmology, fundamental physics and simulation working groups. The AEI´s "Astrophysical and Cosmological Relativity" division led by Alessandra Buonanno plays a leading role in the LISA Consortium and will host this meeting.

LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, is an ESA-led mission set for launch in 2034. "The LISA project is developing rapidly, with a number of major milestones coming up within the next few years. One milestone is mission adoption, after which major industrial activity begins. Preparation for adoption requires both instrument and data analysis development to be brought to sufficient maturity. Researchers all over the world have therefore already started and must continue to develop the underlying theoretical tools and the required hardware and software from now", Buonanno explains.
Researchers at the AEI Potsdam are experts in developing waveforms for the signals produced by various sources of gravitational waves, such as the coalescence of supermassive black holes, and the inspiral of a black hole or a neutron star into a supermassive black hole. "These waveforms are like fingerprints of the gravitational-wave sources. Our main goal is to precisely calculate the expected waveforms, in other words, model the expected fingerprints. The more accurately the waveform can be described, the more can be learned about a given gravitational-wave source from the data streams once LISA is flying," says Buonanno.
LISA will allow the observation of gravitational waves from an exciting variety of new sources, such as
The merger of two supermassive black holes at the center of colliding galaxies,
A black hole or neutron star falling into a supermassive black hole, termed an "Extreme Mass-ratio Inspiral" or EMRI,
1000s of compact binaries (white dwarves, neutron stars or black holes) in our own galaxy,
Binaries of stellar-origin black holes of the type being observed by the ground-based LIGO and Virgo detectors, but 1-100 years before merger,
Decay of cusps in cosmic strings (if they exist),
Intermediate Mass-Ratio Inspirals (IMRI) – 1000 solar mass black holes merging with supermassive black holes (hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of solar masses)
"With these new sources come new challenges in modeling their waveforms", explains Maarten van de Meent, senior scientist at the AEI. "LISA will typically observe binary black hole systems for thousands of orbits, requiring waveform models that are accurate for much longer. Some of these systems will be one hundred times louder than anything observed so far by LIGO and Virgo, requiring models that are much more precise if the signals have to be removed from the data to the same level." Harald Pfeiffer, group leader at the AEI, adds: "Finally, the ratio of the mass of the heavier component to that of the lighter component in an EMRI can be as large as a million. These systems are also expected to follow elliptical rather than circular inspiral trajectories. This is completely different from any system that has or will be observed with ground-based detectors and requires distinct modeling strategies."
To address these challenges requires the development of theoretical, analytic and numerical methods. Within the LISA Consortium, the LISA Waveform Modeling Working Group is tasked with ensuring that these challenges are addressed and overcome before LISA's launch. It serves as an interface between the LISA Consortium preparing the mission on the one hand and the wider community of scientists working on gravitational modeling on the other.
The Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Potsdam has experts in all aspects of gravitational wave modeling and will play a leading role in the activity of the Waveform Working Group.
"We will learn most about the signals that LISA observes if we have accurate models for how those signals depend on the physical parameters of the system, and efficient ways to evaluate them. It will take many years to fully develop such models and the data analysis pipelines that will use them, that's why this work must start in earnest now. The AEI will be at the forefront of this development and the exploitation of LISA data. The goal of this meeting is to bring together experts in source modeling, data analysis and instrumentation to understand the requirements that LISA will place on waveform models. These requirements will frame future waveform development over the next two decades", explains Jonathan Gair, group leader at the AEI in Potsdam.

For those unfamiliar, "Hotel Impossible" is "Bar Rescue" for hotels. The popular show has successfully remade hotels from Puerto Rico to Greece, so the AutoPort should be in good hands. It began filming here on Monday and will continue until week's end.
Leonard sats a filming a segment requires an evaluation of the hotel, owners and business structure. "Hotel Impossible" will also bring in a designer to recommend aesthetics and Melchiorri will act as the primary business consultant.
The AutoPort was founded by Marion B. Meyer in 1936 after he saw a motel for the first time on a visit to Miami. It also includes a Clem's Roadside Bar and Grill Restaurant, bar and pool. In 2007, the business was purchased by Greg and Lynda Mussi and Kathy Punt. They wanted to preserve the motel's historic location after hearing that the Meyer family had put The Autoport up for sale and it was at the risk of demolition.
"The hotel was already struggling when they purchased it, and with no hotel experience, it's been a struggle for the owners ever since," Leonard says.
Employee Rachael Hartman says filming began Monday, and the rest of the "Hotel Impossible" crew arrived Tuesday. She says they've been focusing on renovating some of the rooms, and paying particular attention to the restaurant.
An air date for the episode about the AutoPort has not yet been announced. Below is an example of how the hour-long episodes of the show normally go.

Thank you for contacting me about the fiscal cliff and the federal deficit.  It's good to hear from you.
Americans need to have a government on their side that is capable of solving tough problems.  That's why Congress must act now to avoid the devastating impact of the fiscal cliff and across-the-board cuts known as sequester.  Without swift action to avoid the fiscal cliff, millions of Americans would see their taxes go up and face spending cuts that could bring our nation back into recession.  The longer we delay the more damage we do to ourselves and the economy.
My principles for avoiding the fiscal cliff are simple.  We must have a combination of spending cuts and new revenue to reduce our debt and still grow the economy.  We must also protect the social contract between the American people and their government.  Medicare and Medicaid need to be reformed and refreshed not gutted or block-granted.
I believe there are ways to achieve the savings required to avoid the fiscal cliff in a balanced and thoughtful way.  We can start by letting the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts expire for households making more than $250,000 per year.  This could save an estimated $700 billion over 10 years.  We can also make thoughtful and balanced cuts to spending - both military and domestic - that will begin to reduce our deficit.  That's why I supported the Budget Control Act passed by Congress in 2011 that would require $900 billion in cuts over 10 years.
What we can't do, however, is use across-the-board spending cuts to get us to a balanced budget.  It would unfairly harm middle-class families and do nothing to raise the additional revenue needed to reduce the deficit.  In Maryland alone, this could result in the loss of tens of thousands of jobs and $3.1 billion to our state economy.
I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress to prevent the fiscal cliff and make thoughtful and balanced changes to our spending policy to reduce our national debt.
Thanks again for getting in touch with me.  Knowing of your views is very important to me.  Please let me know if I can be of any assistance to you in the future.

On March 15, 2012, the Yavapai County Superior Court ruled in favor of a landowner represented by Dale Zeitlin against APS in a condemnation case where APS sought to condemn a right of way easement over private property to be used "to furnish the public with electricity". Zeitlin argued that APS had failed to establish it had the required public use and necessity to take the property and asked the court to dismiss APS's lawsuit. The court agreed that APS did not have a reasonably forseeable need for the property and dismissed the case. The court's holding is the first case in Arizona where a public utility has been found to have acted arbiltrarily and capriciously in condemning private property. The court stated: ". . . there is a difference between APS not having plans to immediately build and not having immediate plans to build." In the case, APS had no plans to construct on the easement it sought. Acknowledging that a utility company is entitled to pursue easements that allow for the utility's reasonably forseeable future need to provide electricity, the court stated that "there needs to be a discernable differnece between that and the mere condemnation and acquisition of property and the stockpiling of property interests during difficut economic times and at a highly favorable reduced price in anticipation that the property condemned lies between two points on a map through which a power line might someday serve their purposes." The court concluded that condemnation for reasonable forseeable future needs is a legitimate baisis for condemnation, but stockpiling property at prices and times advantageous to the utility without demonstrative future need is arbitrary and capricious.

May 19th is May Ray Day, a day to appreciate the warming weather provided courtesy of our sun's rays. Summer is just around the corner and it won't be long before we turn the air conditioning on full blast. Many people find this beautiful time of year between Winter's last frost and the dog days of Summer the most appealing time for outdoor activities and enjoyment.
I am one of the many people who adore Spring weather. On the other hand, I detest the cold and darkness of Winter, and wilt during the hottest weeks of Summer. But the beauty and mildness of Spring always re-energize my spirits. I don't usually spend a lot of time out of doors, but this is the time of year you'd be most likely to see me feigning interest in our garden or going out for a stroll in historic Fredericksburg. Apart from the rain, the past couple of weeks have been so perfect I even suggested to Chris that we purchase a kayak! He wisely denied my attempted impulse buy.
To celebrate May Ray Day Chris and I switched up our lunch routine, abandoning the office break-room to enjoy our hour-long lunch outside in the sun. Much to my delight, we have a Panera Bread not far from where we work, right in the middle of a popular shopping center that's ideal for people-watching. We grabbed our delicious lunches and got settled outside where we could watch the birds chirping and fluttering around piles of crumbs. Toward the end of our meal we struck up a conversation with a friendly older man at the next table and helped him solve the last clue in his daily crossword puzzle. The only interruption to the serene lunch and wonderful weather was a chilly but brief breeze. By the end of our break I was so relaxed I could hardly believe we had to go back to the office and……WORK! But the diversion left me feeling inspired: maybe it's time to start having our dinner outside on our back deck during Spring's mild evenings. After all, we have a big beautiful yard to enjoy. OMG BBQ WTF!
It's a good thing Chris looks so good in his skin-tight biking shorts — tomorrow is Bike to Work Day!

Pistons fire head coach Maurice Cheeks
By Brett PollakoffFeb 9, 2014, 12:24 PM EDT
The Detroit Pistons have fired head coach Maurice Cheeks just 50 games into his first season as the team's head coach, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports.
The timing is a bit curious, considering the Pistons had just won two straight in blowout fashion over the Nets and the Nuggets. But there have been problems brewing for some time.
Despite back-to-back victories on the weekend, general manager Joe Dumars informed Cheeks of his dismissal on Sunday morning, sources said. …
In a season that has fallen short of playoff expectations, Detroit owner Tom Gores has been pushing for changes, league sources said.
Cheeks has struggled to manage a flawed roster in terms of its basic construction, which includes Brandon Jennings and Josh Smith playing alongside two more traditional bigs in Andre Drummond and Greg Monroe.
The bench depth is virtually nonexistent, yet ownership mandated playoffs with the money spent in free agency and in the East it's still very possible for the Pistons, so maybe this gives them a little bit of a bump.
Drummond was benched twice in a recent loss, and his teammates were visibly upset by the maneuver when it happened. Cheeks also benched Smith back in December, so it perhaps became clear to ownership that he would not be able to guide this team to the playoffs, despite currently sitting just a half-game back of the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference standings.
An interim coach has yet to be named, and no, it won't be Rasheed Wallace. Wojnarowski reports that assistant John Loyer is expected to be the front-runner for the job.
"Our record does not reflect our talent and we simply need a change," said Pistons owner Tom Gores, via official release. "We have not made the kind of progress that we should have over the first half of the season. This is a young team and we knew there would be growing pains, but we can be patient only as long as there is progress. The responsibility does not fall squarely on any one individual, but right now this change is a necessary step toward turning this thing around. I still have a lot of hope for this season and I expect our players to step up. I respect and appreciate Maurice Cheeks and thank him for his efforts; we just require a different approach."
Jennings reacted publicly to the news as soon as it broke, and seemed as surprised as the rest of us.

Q: Property 'users_index' does not exist on type 'typeof UserApiController' when trying to access static method in TypeScript I am brand new to TypeScript, and trying to call a function on a class.
In file A:
import userAPIController from "./controllers/customer/userAPIController";

userAPIController.users_index();

In file B:
export default class UserApiController {

    public users_index(): void {
        User.findAll({
            attributes: ["given_name", "family_name"]
        }).success(function (users: any) {
            console.log(users);
        });
}

I get the error:
Property 'users_index' does not exist on type 'typeof UserApiController'

I've also tried to add an interface:
interface userAPIController {
    users_index: any;
}

With no luck.
What am I doing incorrectly?

A: UsersApiController is a class, so you'll need to instantiate it before you can call its methods:
const controller = new usersApiController();
controller.users_index();

You can read more about using classes here: https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/classes.html

A: The function you've written isn't a isn't a static method, it's an instance method. If you want it to be static, change it to:
static users_index = (): void => {
 // content omitted
}

For more on static properties, see this page
Or if it's correct that it's an instance method, use the new operator to create an instance before you try to access it:
const controller = new UserApiController();
controller.users_index();

My new music video for TUSK is featured on VICE Germany's NOISEY SITE!!!
I was in Berlin a week ago for a little while and had the pleasure to shoot a music video for TUSK (Benjamin Teicher) at a great little studio that we rented for the occasion.
This nifty silent VJ clip was made in Arkaos by Carrie Gates, featuring the talents of Murray Cusitar, Blair Fornwald, Nathan Seckinger, and a lovely glam clubee.


Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying, "Go at once to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before me." But Jonah set out to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid his fare and went on board, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the Lord. But the Lord provided a large fish to swallow up Jonah; and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

When I first began the journey of overcoming my food addiction, I attended 12-Step meetings, read the literature between meetings and talked to my sponsor, but I told her right up front, "I am not yet willing to change anything about the way I eat." After about 6 months of "working" the steps, I received a gift from the Lord, a tiny little bit of willingness. I wasn't ready to change the way I ate yet, but I found the willingness to start recording what I was eating.
Eventually I became willing to start planning my food, and eat according to my plan; more or less. (I can be stubborn!) I realized after a while that if I would stop and ask the Lord for the willingness to say no to myself when I was about to eat something inappropriate, He would give me that willingness! It was amazing. But this introduced a new problem. Sometimes I didn't want to ask for willingness because I knew that He would give it to me, and I wanted the food more than I wanted the willingness to abstain from it!
I heard someone say in a meeting that if she wasn't willing to pray for willingness then she prayed for the willingness to become willing. I tried it. It worked! I don't know why I should be so surprised. He often grants our righteous petitions, and I know He wants me to be living in a state of recovery. Willingness to change my behavior is a condition of learning to live in a state of recovery.
Is there something you are not yet willing to do that you know will help you on your recovery? What?
Are you willing to pray for willingness? If not, are you willing to pray for the willingness to become willing?
What will you do today to become willing to take another step on your journey of recovery?
I am one of those who struggled with an addiction that I loved. I had to pray for 2 months for the willingness to want to ask Heavenly Father to help me to give up the addiction. When I finally had it, He blessed me with recovery. That willingness sure is an important part of recovery. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father helped me to get that.
I love this story of losing weight. It is simple and sensible. Thanks for sharing.


Sadly, since we first met Badger and friends in 1908, the UK has become one of the most nature-depleted nations in the world. The Wildlife Trusts have created an animated trailer of Wind in the Willows, which brings to life the 21st century threats that would face the much-loved characters from Kenneth Grahame's children's classic in today's life.
On watching it, we hope that you'll agree that we've reached a point where our natural world is in a critical condition and needs our help to put it into recovery. We know it's not too late to bring our wildlife back, but we must act now.
Kenneth Grahame wrote Wind in the Willows just over a hundred years ago. Since then, many of the UK's wild places and the plants and animals that depend on them have been lost. For example: 97% of lowland meadows and the beautiful wildflowers, insects, mammals and birds that they supported have disappeared; 80% of our beautiful purple heathlands have vanished - with their blaeberries, sand lizards and stunning nocturnal birds, nightjars.


SAN FRANCISCO, Ca. — This month Apple's Macworld Expo descended on San Francisco, California and students of Olivet Institute of Technology visited the Moscone Center for hands-on workshops and live interview sessions with a number of industry experts.
A group of 10 students attended the event, taking place January 14-18. Aside from the new product announcements and executive keynotes, students particularly enjoyed professionally led classes on industry standard software.
"This is a great experience," said sophomore OIT student Xianglai Kong. "We are able to converse with the latest technologies and get actual training from experts.
Favorites included a two-day exercise with products that included Apple's Final Cut Studio, Aperture, and a special session exploring the Mac OS 10.5.
"Being centered in San Francisco gives us tremendous opportunity to expand on student learning," commented OIT Director William Wong. "Macworld and other events of this scale also facilitate our work to leverage our position through meetings and partnerships with leading IT firms in the heart of Silicon Valley."
Macworld, the largest Macintosh event of its kind, presents over 400 exhibitors to an expected audience of more than 50,000 attendees in 2008.

Home Health "Beat the Blues Cruise" Run/Walk to Raise Awareness of Suicide, Depression April...
"Beat the Blues Cruise" Run/Walk to Raise Awareness of Suicide, Depression April 6
L. Malik Anderson
Kris Bathke began a mission to end the stigma against talking about suicide after the tragic loss of her father in 2010. That mission will have led to the inaugural Beat the Blues Cruise Run/Walk on April 6. The event will open at 9 am and the 5k run/walk and 10k start times are to be determined. Cost is $50 for the 10k and $40 for the 5k, and participants are encouraged to make their participation into a fundraiser through the Raceroster platform, where registration is now open.
"My father was 63. He was a very successful man. I saw him every Sunday for dinner, had no idea that he would even consider suicide or even had depression issues," Bathke said.
Bathke said through hosting this event she wants to let people know that they can discuss suicide and depression. She also wants people to know that suicide and depression are not things people should feel ashamed of.
Organizers Bathke and Emelle Holmes-Drammeh encourage people to participate in the event and bring their families to the Keva Sports Center in Middleton to explore the mental health resources in the area. The two enlisted local DJ M. White to provide the music and scheduled Dogs On Call.
"We'll also have different activities. We'll have a silent auction," Holmes-Drammeh said.
She also said children will have an opportunity to tie-dye shirts if they like. Holmes-Drammeh and Bathke said people should attend even if they do not plan on participating in the run/walk. Bathke said her main goal is to raise awareness and get people to think about mental health.
"I thought about doing an event like the run/walk for a long time. When I started planning the run/walk, it became clear that we would have to create an organization," Bathke said.
She said Holmes-Drammeh gave her just the push she needed to help organize the event, later applying for 501(c)(3) status for the organization. The Beat the Blues Cruise organization exists to raise awareness of both suicide and prevention measures. All proceeds from the run/walk will go to organizations that provide mental health care.
"We're hoping this is going to happen annually," Bathke said.
Holmes-Drammeh said one of the biggest challenges people who have depression or are considering suicide besides the stigma is access to appropriate care. She also said some insurance plans do not include comprehensive coverage for mental health and emotional well-being.
Bathke said she hopes more people will become aware of mental health issues and how suicide affects everyone. Holmes-Drammeh and Bathke said they are looking for community support including people to go online and register to participate, including possible vendors.
"We've never done anything like this before so when she came to me for help, I said sure but I have no clue how to do this," Holmes-Drammeh said.
However, the organizers did extensive research on how to plan a successful run and walk. They even sought help from organizations like Target Destination, Next Level Sports and MN Run Series & Podium Sports Marketing, Inc.
"We're working with organizations that kind of do this regularly," Bathke said.
The organizers have solicited help from The Center for Suicide Awareness, Journey Mental Health and Veteran Affairs. Bathke also said mental health professionals will be on site.
