Wobbly Jack Syndrome
If you've had a Telecaster for any length of time, there's a reasonable chance you've experienced Wobbly Jack Syndrome. It's an annoying condition that afflicts Teles from time to time. You know it… That little recessed metal dish or cup that holds the output jack starts to get a little loose. After a while, it's very loose and—sometimes—even causes nasty signal cracks and output loss.
Inside the hole in the side of the guitar, the output jack is mounted through a metal 'retainer clip' and the metal cup. The retainer clip (photo on the right below) should hold it all tightly in the wall of the hole but sometimes works its way loose.
The clip works on a really simple principle: it goes into the hole with its sides bent (as shown above) and is forced to straighten. This causes the sides to dig into the hole-wall and holds it all in place.
Easy. And it's an easy fix if you have the right tool. If you don't—despite the easy principle—it's almost impossible to do properly.
And that ugly looking hunk of metal in the photo on the left is the right tool. Leo Fender may have given it a proper name but, for me, it's just the Tele Jack Clip Installation Thing. It makes it easy to remove an existing clip or to properly install a new one. Without it, you end up hacking aimlessly and hoping for the best.
If you're fed up with wobbly Tele jacks, a device called an Electrosocket can be screwed in to replace the, rather fiddly, clip and cup arrangement. It's not something you'd really do with a nice vintage Tele, though. In that case, occasional wobbly jacks are just part of the magic.

The mystery of the Blessed Trinity was not revealed in the Old Testament because God saw that his Chosen People were not yet ready to accept such a mystery. Living, as they were, surrounded by adorers of many gods, any knowledge of the Trinity of persons in the one God, might have weakened their monotheism. It was only when Christ came on earth claiming (and proving his claim) that he was the divine Son of God, and promising to send the Consoler, a third Person in God, to strengthen and guide his disciples that this doctrine was fully revealed. It was accepted without question from the very first days of the Christian Church, first of all because it was Christ who revealed it, and, secondly, because it was felt that the Church had proof of the existence of three distinct Persons in the one God in that each of them played a part in the founding and spreading of Christianity. The Father sent his Son on earth in human form, and raised him from the dead when he had carried out his Father's will. The Father and the Son sent the Holy Spirit to direct and govern the Church founded by the Son.
While we admit the fact that there are three distinct Persons in the one God and have valid reasons for doing so, we still do not understand how this is. Of course, if God could be fully understood by our finite minds, he would not be God, but a limited being like ourselves. Let us be content today to say how privileged we are to know of this doctrine and even more so to know that each of the three divine Persons has played a part in giving us a share in their life. When we get to heaven we shall see and understand it all more clearly with the added light of the Beatific Vision, which will be given to our glorified bodies.
In today's reading from the book of Deuteronomy we see how privileged the Chosen People of Israel were, how wonderful God had been in his dealings with them, and how all he asked for in return was that they should keep his commandments. These were for their own good. Sad to relate, they did not keep his laws! They quickly forgot all that he had done for them and turned to adore lifeless idols, pagan "gods" who could not help either themselves or anyone else. This was ingratitude and meanness of a high order, but let us remember that everything that God did for the Jews, he did for us too. Through his dealings with them he was preparing the way for the incarnation.
Do we return due thanks to God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for this immensely greater love? Before we criticize or judge the Jews of old, let us see if our own consciences are in order before God. We owe him obedience for far weightier reasons than the Jews had. He set them free from the slavery of Egypt; he has set us free from Satan's power. He gave them Canaan as their homeland; he has prepared heaven, the place of unending life, for us. He made Moses, one of themselves, the mediator between himself and the Israelites; he has given his own Son to be our mediator. In return for it all and as a token repayment, we are asked to keep his commandments!
God is surely not asking too much of us. Any generous Christian would not only do this, he would look for further means of showing his gratitude to the Blessed Trinity. All the saints did so and earned the honor of God and the respect of man. We all want to be saints. Let us begin today not merely to keep the commandments but also to do some extra bit each day to show our sincere gratitude to God. God will never be outdone in generosity.
Blessed the people the Lord has chosen to be his own..
CCC 1302 It is evident from its celebration that the effect of the sacrament of Confirmation is the special outpouring of the Holy Spirit as once granted to the apostles on the day of Pentecost.
CCC 1831 The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. They belong in their fullness to Christ, Son of David.20 They complete and perfect the virtues of those who receive them. They make the faithful docile in readily obeying divine inspirations.

About the year 57-58 that is to say, less than thirty years after the resurrection, St. Paul wrote this letter to the Christians in Rome. It was a church he was very anxious to visit (he had had nothing to do with the spread of the faith there). The Roman Christian community was made up of Jew and Gentile converts. It is evident from St. Paul's words that they were quite familiar with the doctrine of the three divine Persons in one God. We know, of course, that they had received baptism in the name of the Blessed Trinity. Therefore, they had accepted the fact about the true God before becoming Christians. To do this was not, humanly speaking, easy for a Jew or a Gentile, but we must remember that the early Christians did not rely on human logic or human thinking. The grace and the power of God was with them in generous measure.
For a Jew, the very essence of whose religion was strict monotheism, there was one God and one God only. The three Persons must at first mention have sounded like many gods, something abhorrent to his nature. Yet, thousands of Jews accepted this doctrine from the very first days of the Church (all the first Christians were Jewish converts). They were convinced that God, although he was strictly one God, had revealed that there were three Persons in that one divine nature. If God revealed this knowledge of his innermost nature and if it did not contradict the unity, the oneness of God, how could they refuse to accept this revelation? For the Gentiles also, this doctrine must at first sight have seemed a stumbling block. They were sick and tired of their own pagan gods. Was Christianity offering them three instead of many gods? Again, aided by God's grace, they realized that Christianity was not preaching three Gods but three Persons who in some mysterious way are in the one and only God.
We Christians of today are no more advanced than the early Jew and Gentile converts were as regards the mysteries of faith. We cannot examine the Godhead scientifically, and prove to ourselves from cold logic that there are three Persons in God. But like them, we too know that we have the word of God for it and God is the God of truth. His word is stronger and more convincing than any human proof or logic can ever be. Like the early Christians, we also have had the experience of the three Persons, each performing a distinct role in the work of our salvation. The Father created us and planned an eternal life for us. He sent the Son to enable us to fill the role his Father had planned for us. After the Son's ascension, both the Father and the Son sent the Holy Spirit to sanctify, give courage and strength to the Apostles and those who would join them.
This threefold activity is still going on in the life of each one of us–the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are cooperating to bring us to heaven. Why? We may well ask. The Blessed Trinity is infinitely perfect, infinitely happy in heaven. God needs nothing from us. Here again is where our small, finite intelligence fails us. We can understand human love and human generosity which at their greatest are but temporary, passing things and of necessity very limited in quality and quantity. But God's love for us is infinite. It is completely and entirely without self-interest. God does not act out of need but out of nature. His very nature is goodness and so he is moved by that nature to share his goodness, his happiness with those who are able to appreciate it, that is, with us men.
It has been very clearly and very definitely revealed to us that God loves us with an infinite love. This is the basic message of the New Testament. The three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are still proving this fact to us. In this life we cannot understand why, but we can and we must show our gratitude for this fact of divine generosity and love.
Today, on this special feastday of the Blessed Trinity, let us resolve to make ourselves less unworthy of their divine love: by doing what is asked of us, by living our faith in charity, and by keeping ever before our minds the eternal future that awaits us. The day is not far off when, please God, we shall meet the Blessed Trinity face to face. Then we shall understand a lot more about the three divine Persons in God, and the infinite love and mercy shown to us by these three Persons.
CCC 189 The first "profession of faith" is made during Baptism. The symbol of faith is first and foremost the baptismal creed. Since Baptism is given "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit",6 the truths of faith professed during Baptism are articulated in terms of their reference to the three persons of the Holy Trinity.
CCC 644 Even when faced with the reality of the risen Jesus the disciples are still doubtful, so impossible did the thing seem: they thought they were seeing a ghost. "In their joy they were still disbelieving and still wondering."11 Thomas will also experience the test of doubt and St. Matthew relates that during the risen Lord's last appearance in Galilee "some doubted."12 Therefore the hypothesis that the Resurrection was produced by the apostles' faith (or credulity) will not hold up. On the contrary their faith in the Resurrection was born, under the action of divine grace, from their direct experience of the reality of the risen Jesus.
CCC 1120 The ordained ministry or ministerial priesthood is at the service of the baptismal priesthood.39 The ordained priesthood guarantees that it really is Christ who acts in the sacraments through the Holy Spirit for the Church. The saving mission entrusted by the Father to his incarnate Son was committed to the apostles and through them to their successors: they receive the Spirit of Jesus to act in his name and in his person.40 The ordained minister is the sacramental bond that ties the liturgical action to what the apostles said and did and, through them, to the words and actions of Christ, the source and foundation of the sacraments.
CCC 1257 The Lord himself affirms that Baptism is necessary for salvation.46 He also commands his disciples to proclaim the Gospel to all nations and to baptize them.47 Baptism is necessary for salvation for those to whom the Gospel has been proclaimed and who have had the possibility of asking for this sacrament.48 The Church does not know of any means other than Baptism that assures entry into eternal beatitude; this is why she takes care not to neglect the mission she has received from the Lord to see that all who can be baptized are "reborn of water and the Spirit." God has bound salvation to the sacrament of Baptism, but he himself is not bound by his sacraments.

54 St. John Chrysostom, Ecloga de oratione 2: PG 63, 585.
The reason why these five verses, that conclude the final chapter of St. Matthew's gospel, were chosen for today's Mass is evident. The three Persons of the Blessed Trinity are mentioned by name in this Gospel.
All those who would enter the new kingdom of God, the Church, were to be dedicated in the ceremony of baptism to the Blessed Trinity; they were to enter into a fellowship with the three divine Persons. Whether Christ himself gave the exact words for the form of baptism does not concern us here, but from 2 Cor. 2: 21, it would appear that this form was in use from the earliest days of the Church. We are aware that we ourselves were dedicated to God in our baptism and destined to have an eternal fellowship with the Trinity in heaven. We are aware, too, of the part played by the three divine Persons in making that eternal happiness and friendship with the Trinity available to us. While the essence of the Trinity, or the way in which there can be three Persons in the one God, is a mystery which our limited minds cannot even begin to solve, we have no hesitation in accepting the existence of this deepest mystery of our religion. It was no less an authority than Jesus Christ himself who revealed it to us. With his guarantee for its truth, we are left in no doubt as to the existence of this mystery. We can safely wait for a greater, if not a complete understanding in heaven.
Today, as we honor the Blessed Trinity, our predominant thought must be one of gratitude to each of the three Persons for all they have done and are still doing for us. First, to God the Father, who in his love planned not only our creation as intelligent human beings, the highest and noblest of his creatures on earth, but planned to give us adopted sonship as well. Secondly, let us show our deepest gratitude to the all-obedient, all-loving Son of God, who carried out to the letter the divine Father's plan for our adoption, by sharing with us our humanity so that we could share in his divinity. Thirdly, let us be eternally grateful to the Holy Spirit–the fruit of the love of Father and Son–who has come to dwell in the Church and in each member of the Church, in order to fill our hearts with a true love of God, and to direct our faltering steps toward the everlasting happiness which awaits us beyond the grave.
We know only too well how unworthy we are of this love of the Blessed Trinity which has been poured out on us. The greatest saints were unworthy of this infinite love. Our unworthiness should not, and must not, stop us from availing ourselves of this divine love and from doing what we can to prove how we value and sincerely appreciate the love and goodness of the Blessed Trinity for us. In return for this love, Christ asked us, his followers, to keep his commandments. This is the one genuine proof we can give of our gratitude for all that these three Persons have done for us.
We are so weak that we often let the passing things of this world turn our thoughts and actions away from God and from our own eternal interests. We forget Christ and his commandments at times and let the world rule our hearts and minds. However, even for sinners like us there is hope and encouragement in the infinity of God's love. Let us not forget it: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit know all our weaknesses, they knew them before they arranged to make us sharers in their own eternal happiness. They know, also, that those of us who try and try again to rise above our human weakness will finally share with them their heaven.
This possibility is open to all of us. The Blessed Trinity will exclude nobody from heaven. If some fail, the fault will be entirely and completely their own. May God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit grant us the courage and strength to overcome our human weaknesses! May they give us the grace to live and die in their love so that we may share their eternal kingdom of happiness!
The Spirit does not speak, as it were, from himself, but is a listening to and a making clear of the Son, who in turn does not speak on his authority, but is, as the one sent by the Father, his distinct presence. The Father also gives himself to the Son so completely that everything that he has belongs to the Son. Each of the three Persons of the Trinity points to the other two. In this circle of love flowing and intermingling, there is the highest degree of constancy to everything that exists… What sustains us is the movement of the heart and spirit that leaves itself and is on the way to the other… It is only if each Christian makes his whole being available to the Word in the passage of time that time can as a whole be open to Christ… The Trinity, then, provides us with the means by which both the individual and the community of the Church can disentangle the confusion of time. We shall not solve the problems that trouble us today by theorizing, but by spiritual means, my entering, in other words, into the form of the Trinity… The selflessness of those who bear witness to Christ gives authenticity to the Church, just as Christ's selflessness bore authentic testimony to himself and to the Spirit. It is in this way that a living interrelationship can develop, that growth can come about and that we can be led into the fullness of truth, a truth that is richer and greater than anything that we can invent.
Most Holy Trinity, Godhead indivisible, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, our first beginning and our last end, since Thou hast made us after Thine own image and likeness, grant that all the thoughts of our minds, all the words of our tongues, all the affections of our hearts and all our actions may be always conformed to Thy most holy will, to the end that after having seen Thee here below in appearances and by means of faith, we may come at last to contemplate Thee face-to-face in the perfect possession of Thee forever in paradise. Amen.

AAMC Statement on the FDA Authorization of the First COVID-19 Vaccine
Stuart Heiser, Sr. Media Relations Specialist
sheiser@aamc.org
AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges) President and CEO David J. Skorton, MD, issued the following statement on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) authorization of a vaccine to prevent COVID-19:
"The FDA's authorization of the first vaccine to prevent COVID-19 represents a promising step toward ending the coronavirus pandemic. As our country and frontline health care workers confront the dramatic surge in COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths, today's approval is an important milestone in the fight against the pandemic, made possible by decades of biomedical research within the academic medicine community. This groundbreaking research laid the foundation for and sped the development of this and other vaccines now in the pipeline.
The FDA's enhanced review process for the vaccine, which has required submission of extensive safety and efficacy data and consultation with its external scientific review committee prior to the emergency use authorization, demonstrates the agency's commitment to protecting the American people and maintaining trust in its rigorous processes.
Recent polls show the general public's hesitancy to be vaccinated against COVID-19. In light of this, we must come together as medical professionals to understand the safety and efficacy data that the FDA has made publicly available and instill confidence in the safety of the vaccine and the importance of getting vaccinated in the coming months. This will be critical in efforts to curb the spread of the virus.
In addition to serving on the frontlines and caring for patients during the pandemic, academic medicine – America's medical schools, teaching hospitals, and health systems – has been deeply involved in the fundamental and clinical research that facilitated the development of the vaccine candidates currently in clinical trials. Over a decade of pioneering research at academic medical centers and the National Institutes of Health built the foundation for mRNA as a strategy for vaccine development, resulting in the production of the first version of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine merely one week after the novel coronavirus was sequenced in January 2020. Also, many AAMC member institutions have assisted with the recruitment of volunteers for clinical trials in both COVID-19 vaccines.
Even with the authorization of the first vaccine, we cannot expect an immediate stop to the spread of this illness. The first shipments of the vaccine will begin to protect our most vulnerable frontline health care workers and those living in assisted living facilities. It will be several months before the vaccines are widely available and the vaccination rates are high enough to curb the pandemic. Until then, COVID-19 will continue to stretch the nation's health care capacity to its limits, and we must continue the public health measures we know are effective, such as wearing a face covering in public, avoiding large gatherings– especially indoors– social distancing, and proper hand washing.
Now more than ever, we must all do our part to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities against COVID-19."
The AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges) is a not-for-profit association dedicated to transforming health through medical education, health care, medical research, and community collaborations. Its members are all 155 accredited U.S. and 17 accredited Canadian medical schools; more than 400 teaching hospitals and health systems, including Department of Veterans Affairs medical centers; and more than 70 academic societies. Through these institutions and organizations, the AAMC leads and serves America's medical schools and teaching hospitals and their more than 179,000 full-time faculty members, 92,000 medical students, 140,000 resident physicians, and 60,000 graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the biomedical sciences.

Hybrid ryegrasses (Lolium x boucheanum Kunth), also known as 'short rotation' ryegrasses, are generally produced by plant breeders crossing Italian or annual ryegrass with perennial ryegrass. Hybrid ryegrasses fall between Italian and long rotation ryegrasses in growth and persistence.
They give better winter production than perennial or long rotation ryegrass, and in summer wet areas, most cultivars can persist for up to 5 years. In summer dry environments hybrids generally last for 2-3 years. Some cultivars are available with endophyte which enhances their insect resistance and persistence.

Jim Henry - A lifetime's odyssey
Jim had always enjoyed jazz, (old New Orleans style, not modern) and went to many jazz clubs while he was in England, eg Ronnie Scott's in London. But it was during his retirement when he had more time to develop the interest that it became a serious hobby and he started a collection of 78 records.
An interest becomes a serious hobby
Jim had always enjoyed jazz, (old New Orleans style, not modern) and went to many jazz clubs while he was in England, eg Ronnie Scott's in London. But it was during his retirement when he had more time to develop the interest that it became a serious hobby and he started a collection of 78 records. When ill health interfered with his normal reading he turned more to listening and developed specialist knowledge of 1920s jazz. Names like Wingy Manone and Ma Rainey were often heard in the Henry household.
He obtained the old records from flea markets, junk shops and mail auctions.
But there was one actual record shop in Belfast where he bought all sorts of records including 78s and that was the famous Dougie Knight's on Botanic Avenue. At one stage Dougie Knight used to host jazz and Blues sessions on the premises.
Jim was a fan of the Apex Jazz Band (still going strong) and went to many of their gigs.
In addition to attending jazz sessions here and abroad, over time, a group of fellow enthusiasts Jim included, used to gather in each other's houses for an evening of recordings of vintage jazz and to enjoy some wine and cheese.
The house had always groaned under the weight of books but now records, especially old 78s, added to the burden. At first Jim kept his meticulously catalogued collection in a bedroom given over to the purpose but as the collection grew, and became quite valuable, the shelves grew heavier and eventually the records had to be moved downstairs to save the bedroom floor.
He'd bring the old 78s home, wash them carefully and then record them onto cassettes. Each cassette had a carefully made list of the tunes and performers. All the family received tapes from time to time with appropriate titles eg, when his first grandchild was born he sent his daughter a copy of Cakewalking Babies.
He really enjoyed the quirky titles of some of the old songs eg,
I'm Gonna Dance with the Man what brung me,
I ain't gonna play no second fiddle.
Scrub Me Mama, eight to the bar (a boogie version of the Irish Washerwoman).
May was not so keen on jazz but went along with her husband to all the smoky nightclubs. She revealed to the children that she would count the members of the band and then resign herself to sitting through their solos.
The suddenness of his death is conveyed by the fact that during his wake, one of the jazz aficionados came to the door to collect him for a session. Jim's son, thinking that the man was there to offer condolences showed him into the drawing room where Jim was laid out in the coffin. To say he was shocked is putting it mildly!

Throughout Glass' gradual expansion to more and more Explorers, there's been a lot of talk about using the device professionally in demanding environments, particularly healthcare (and firefighting). Wearable Intelligence is a company looking to tackle the former, along with energy industries, by building firmware for Glass that replaces its usual Android installation with one customized to fit the needs of those industries.
Wearable Intelligence says its healthcare solution is HIPAA compliant, and from their promotional video, it looks undoubtedly impressive.
WI's solution is currently being tested by Beth Israel where Dr. Steve Hong says it has already saved at least one life, giving him the ability to view allergy information for a patient suffering massive brain bleeding without using his hands or even looking away from the patient.
The company's energy solution is in testing with Schlumberger, a multinational energy company using 30 pairs of Glass to ensure safety and task completion.
Wearable Intelligence CEO Yan-David Erlich believes Glass could help in many industries where workplace procedures, remote assistance, and context-aware alerts would be useful, and says the company will eventually expand to other wearables.
Even if you aren't a fan of Google Glass being worn in everyday life, there's no denying these uses have serious potential.
In a post to Google+, the Glass team also notes that the Washington Capitals have partnered with another firm, APX Labs, to create a new fan experience with real time stats and other relevant info. Google invites those developing Glass software for their business to reach out for collaboration through Glass at Work.

The comedy of manners, also called anti sentimental comedy, is a form of comedy that satirizes the manners and affectations of contemporary society and questions societal standards. Social class stereotypes are often represented through stock characters such as the miles gloriosus ("boastful soldier") in ancient Greek comedy or the fop and rake of English Restoration comedy, which is sometimes used as a synonym for "comedy of manners".[1] A comedy of manners often sacrifices the plot, which usually centers on some scandal, to witty dialogue and sharp social commentary. Oscar Wilde's play, The Importance of Being Earnest (1895), which satirized the Victorian morality of the time, is one of the best-known plays of this genre.
The comedy of manners was first developed in the New Comedy period of ancient Greek comedy and is known today primarily from fragments of writings by the Greek playwright Menander. Menander's style, elaborate plots, and stock characters were imitated by the ancient Roman playwrights, such as Plautus and Terence, whose comedies were in turn widely known and reproduced during the Renaissance. Some of the best-known comedies of manners are those by the 17th-century French playwright Molière, who satirized the hypocrisy and pretension of the ancien régime in plays such as L'École des femmes ([The School for Wives], 1662), Tartuffe ([The Imposter], 1664), and Le Misanthrope ([The Misanthrope], 1666).

Early examples
The comedy of manners has been employed by Roman satirists since as early as the first century BC. Horace's Satire 1.9 is a prominent example, in which the persona is unable to express his wish for his companion to leave, but instead subtly implies so through wit.
William Shakespeare's Much Ado about Nothing might be considered the first comedy of manners In England, but the genre really flourished during the Restoration period. Restoration comedy, which was influenced by Ben Jonson's comedy of humours, made fun of affected wit and acquired follies of the time. The masterpieces of the genre were the plays of William Wycherley (The Country Wife, 1675) and William Congreve (The Way of the World, 1700). In the late 18th century Oliver Goldsmith (She Stoops to Conquer, 1773) and Richard Brinsley Sheridan (The Rivals, 1775; The School for Scandal, 1777) revived the form.
More recent examples
The tradition of elaborate, artificial plotting, and epigrammatic dialogue was carried on by the Irish playwright Oscar Wilde in Lady Windermere's Fan (1892) and The Importance of Being Earnest (1895). In the 20th century, the comedy of manners reappeared in the plays of the British dramatists Noël Coward (Hay Fever, 1925) and Somerset Maugham. Other early twentieth-century examples of comedies of manners include George Bernard Shaw's 1913 play Pygmalion (later adapted into the musical My Fair Lady), E. M. Forster's A Room with a View, and the Jeeves and Wooster stories of P. G. Wodehouse.
The term comedy of menace, which British drama critic Irving Wardle based on the subtitle of The Lunatic View: A Comedy of Menace (1958), by David Campton, is a jocular play-on-words derived from the "comedy of manners" (menace being manners pronounced with a somewhat Judeo-English accent).[2] Pinter's play The Homecoming has been described as a mid-twentieth-century "comedy of manners".[2]
Other more recent examples include Kazuo Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day, Barbara Pym's Excellent Women, Douglas Carter Beane's As Bees in Honey Drown, The Country Club, and The Little Dog Laughed. In Boston Marriage (1999), David Mamet chronicles a sexual relationship between two women, one of whom has her eye on yet another young woman (who never appears, but who is the target of a seduction scheme). Periodically, the two women make their serving woman the butt of haughty jokes, serving to point up the satire on class. Though displaying the verbal dexterity one associates with both the playwright and the genre, the patina of wit occasionally erupts into shocking crudity.
Comedies of manners have been a staple of British film and television. The Carry On films are a direct descendant of the comedy of manners style, and elements of the style can be found in The Beatles' films A Hard Day's Night and Help!. Television series by David Croft in collaboration with Jimmy Perry and later with Jeremy Lloyd are also notable examples of the genre. These notably include You Rang, M'Lord?, Dad's Army, It Ain't Half Hot Mum, and Are You Being Served?. Television series such as George and Mildred, Absolutely Fabulous, The Young Ones, and The League of Gentlemen also contain many elements of the genre. Though less common as a genre in American television, series such as Frasier , Ugly Betty, Soap, and The Nanny are also comedies of manners.

KRANK 177 - Grouper "The Man Who Died In His Boat"
When I was a teenager the wreckage of a sailboat washed up on the shore of Agate Beach. The remains of the vessel weren't removed for several days. I walked down with my father to peer inside the boat cabin. Maps, coffee cups and clothing were strewn around inside.
I remember looking only briefly, wilted by the feeling that I was violating some remnant of this man's presence by witnessing the evidence of its failure. Later I read a story about him in the paper. It was impossible to know what had happened. The boat had never crashed or capsized. He had simply slipped off somehow, and the boat, like a riderless horse, eventually came back home.
The Man Who Died in His Boat is an album of unreleased songs recorded alongside the Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill album.

Don't let the photo fool you – these are the world's smallest sheep! Also known as Ushant or Breton Dwarf Sheep, the Ouessant is one of the smallest sheep breeds in the world. They originated on Ile d'Ouessant, a small island off the coast of Brittany, France. Most animals are black or brown in coloration with white individuals also occurring. The average thickness of their wool is 27 to 28 microns. It is suitable for suitable for fine knitting yarns and soft weaving yarns. Ushants are a dwarf breed with the males being horned and the females polled (naturally hornless).
Ouessant come from the Island of Ouessant off the coast of Brittany. It is believed that they are related to the northern short tailed breed and black is the preferred color – because the islanders prefer to wear black. Originally there were two lines on the island, Morbihan and Vendeen, that eventually merged into the single line we know today. They were nearly lost in the mid 1900 when some French aristocrats allowed them to graze on the land surrounding their chateaux. The dog in the photo is a long haired Dachsund!
Ouessant are curious and friendly little sheep standing no higher than about 19" tall at the shoulder for rams and 18" for ewes – about 3" smaller than Britain's other tiny sheep, the Soay. They are compact, efficient grazers and maximum weight for a ram is around 41 lbs. The small size is attributed to poor grazing on the island – demanding the development of tiny efficient sheep. Rams are horned – and their horns curl sharply forward. Ewes are polled.
Such tiny sheep do not produce a large fleece – and yet their fleece does make a significant portion of their body volume. The fleece is very thick, with a thick undercoat – so many examples will be dual coated. Average fleece weights are 1.5-4# unskirted and all colors are acceptable. Most colors will be shades of moorit and many of the white fleeces have a reddish undertone. Average staple in a year's growth is around 3".
The wool generally extends onto the face – particularly the forehead and cheeks and will cover the legs to the hock. The locks are somewhat open and hair and kemp will be present particularly near the legs and neck. Hair will be of similar texture to the fleece and is often difficult to separate.

Staffordshire Police Says Complaint Against VIP Abuse Accuser Esther Baker is "Being Investigated"
Posted on August 15, 2019 by Richard Bartholomew
From the Daily Mail:
Detectives are investigating claims that a second alleged abuse victim lied about sex attacks by a VIP paedophile ring.
In 2015, Esther Baker said former Liberal Democrat MP John Hemming was part of a group which lured children into woodland at Cannock Chase in Staffordshire to be raped.
…Now Staffordshire Police, which spent more than a year investigating the allegations, confirmed they were probing whether Miss Baker, 36, misled detectives.
…In a statement, Staffordshire Police said yesterday: 'Following a complaint made to officers, the matter is being investigated and the file is currently with Staffordshire Police's head of crime for review and consideration of next steps.'
It is difficult to tell from this how far along the police are – have Baker's claims be re-scrutinised, or does this just mean that the force is investigating whether to investigate?
The complainant is the former MP John Hemming, and it is odd that neither the Mail article nor a BBC report refer to the fact that the force had previously considered his complaint in 2017. Their initial view, as reported in September 2017, was that a probe of Baker's claims "would not benefit her or the wider community" (or, we might infer, the police), and a few months later it was reported that:
Staffordshire Police informed him [Hemming] via email that following a 'review' of his allegations, it had decided there was 'insufficient evidence' to proceed with the case and no further action would be taken.
Baker has responded dismissively to the new articles, scoffing on Twitter that "Police follow normal procedure and pass file up the chain to decide whether it's worth passing to CPS before dropping it like last time… 4 years in … they've still not felt the need to interview me under caution – unlike some."
She has also once again suggested that she has information that substantiates her account that is not the public domain:
Meh. I'm actually quite bored … but one day they'll learn that for every time they try to discredit me with lies – I get irritated enough to post a bit more truth. Stay tuned travellers.
Baker has also in the past referred to Staffordshire Police's continuing confidence in her as a truthful complainant. This is something to be borne in mind – clearly, constructing a case that officers were "misled" might imply criticism of those officers, and any decision to proceed now (following the high-profile conviction of VIP abuse hoaxer Carl Beech) would raise questions about why Hemming's complaint was rejected in 2017 and 2018. This is perhaps a systemic conflict-of-interest problem when it comes to perversion of justice allegations.
Alongside her Cannock Chase allegations, Baker also claims to have been taken by night to London, where she was brought to a location that she now believes to have been Dolphin Square, and she has also made teenage "grooming"-type claims. These are claims for which she has waived her legal right to anonymity, although that would not preclude her from making other allegations that cannot be publicly attributed to her.
Baker's supporters in Parliament include John Mann (who raised her name in the House of Commons chamber), Sarah Champion and Jess Phillips, who defeated Hemming in the 2015 general election.
Hemming settled a libel action against two of Baker's supporters in January.

If you ask me this makes Phillips' position problematic from a conflict-of-interest point of view. The media luvvies like David Aaronovitch won't hear a word against her though!

I suspect that the police are acting on new evidence which disproves Ms Baker's version of events.


Seriously, our little brains are even smarter than we think!
In an effort to understand our noggins more and keep our rep as a generation of efficiency, I've gathered some more resources about the brain. Some of these books are already listed on the LRN Recommended Resources page, and others have been recommended to me by all of the cool people I know.
Hooked—Joe S. Mcilhaney Jr. M.D. and Freda Mckissic Bush M.D.
The Female Brain—Louann Brizendine M.D.
For American's, I just read this article from TIME which has some insight on our happiness and the brain.
Let me know if you have any other resources you would add in the comments below.
Also, you might not have known but there's a resource page on this site…as well as a Unicorn page.
Amy K. Hutchens wrote a couple good books; one called Brain Brilliant and another called Brain Brilliant dating. Brain Brilliant Dating was a fascinating read which fostered some really good discussion with my 30:40 Singles Ministry friends. I have not yet completed Brain Brilliant, but do look forward to it when I get the chance.
I'd highly, highly recommend Dr. Bruce Perry's 'The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog: And Other Stories from a Child Psychiatrist's Notebook—What Traumatized Children Can Teach Us About Loss, Love, and Healing' (http://bit.ly/TBWWRaaD). I read it (technically listened to it on CD) for a book club and we had the best discussion afterwards. My empathy deepened because of this book.

Q: Why I cannot add a navigationItem outlet from File Owner to Navigation Item? I did this in a viewController
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem=self.Share;

And that does it right.
However, I want to do this in xib instead.
I managed to put a Navigation Item item in XIB and I want that to be the navigationItem of the viewController.
Yet I can't do that.
While I can point the "view" outlet from the viewController, I can't point navigationItem
Actually how to add a rightBarButtonItem through XIB?
Who "owns" that rightBarButtonItem anyway? The navigationController or the viewController under it? How exactly does that interact? There is this navigationBar item in object library but I am not really sure how to use it.

A: You can take a bar button in the coding like IBOutlet UIBarButtonItem * saveButton;
Then you have to take a bar button in the xib file and bind this button with that and in coding you can directly write self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = saveButton;

A: I am not sure this is correct. Basically I can add navigationItem under the viewController, and viewController.navigationItem automatically point to that navigationItem.
That's it. No outlet is necessary. So it's different than view outlet.
I'll select this as the right answer unless someone told me differently.
Also, having a navigationItem there will prevent the title of the navigation bar to be your viewController title.
You have to do self.navigationItem.title=self.title in viewDidLoad, and I feel that I must have done something wrong here.

Qluster (bis 1971 Kluster, 1971–2010 Cluster) ist eine deutsche Musikgruppe, die 1969 von Conrad Schnitzler, Dieter Moebius und Hans-Joachim Roedelius gegründet wurde. Sie wirkte aktiv am Beginn des Krautrocks mit.

Geschichte
Experimentelle Musik mit teils mythischen Texten füllte die ersten beiden Alben Klopfzeichen und Kluster Zwei Osterei. Danach verließ Conrad Schnitzler die Band. Die verbliebenen Musiker Moebius und Roedelius benannten daraufhin 1971 ihr musikalisches Projekt in "Cluster" um. Weitere Alben mit Elektronischer Musik folgten.

Zusammen mit dem Neu!-Musiker Michael Rother nahmen die beiden unter dem Namen Harmonia zwei deutlich melodischere, die Elektronische Musik deutlich ironisierende Alben auf (Musik von Harmonia und De Luxe) auf. Weitere fruchtbare Kollaborationen gab es mit dem britischen Musiker Brian Eno, den Cluster bei einem Konzert Mitte der 1970er kennengelernt haben. Die Alben Cluster & Eno und After The Heat zeugen von dieser Phase. Sowohl Dieter Moebius als auch Hans-Joachim Roedelius haben viele Solo-Alben herausgebracht. Seit Ende der 2000er Jahre nahmen Moebius und Roedelius neues Material auf und gaben gelegentlich Konzerte.

2011 erfolgte eine dritte Umbenennung und Umbesetzung. Als Qluster führen Hans-Joachim Roedelius sowie der Musiker und Tontechniker Onnen Bock die Band fort. Im selben Jahr erschien deren erstes Album Fragen. Cluster 71 wurde in die Liste The Wire's "100 Records That Set the World on Fire (While No One Was Listening)" aufgenommen.

IP Begins New Year with Exec. Director Beth Laux
By Rowan Toke
Photo courtesy of Beth Laux
Pepperdine's new executive director of International Programs (IP) Beth M. Laux, who succeeded Charles Hall as of Aug. 1, said studying abroad during her undergraduate education shaped her life and expanded her worldview.
Pepperdine's International Programs give students the opportunity to study abroad in seven possible locations during the academic year, and other international locations during the summer. Pepperdine was ranked within the top five undergraduate universities in the U.S. for the highest percentage of undergraduate participation for the fifth year in a row, according to the Institute of International Education. As executive director, Laux will lead each of these programs with the students and faculty in mind.
"It was very empowering to realize that there was more opportunity out there for me to contribute to the world and for me to learn from the world than I had ever imagined," Laux said.
Laux, who has worked in international education for the past 20 years, said she did not envision it to be her career when she began as a first-generation student at Aquinas College in Michigan.
Since she had no intention of studying abroad, Laux said it took a faculty member an entire semester to recruit her. She then applied to the undergrad Costa Rica program and was accepted for a semester abroad during her junior year.
Grateful for that faculty member, Laux said the experience of going abroad transformed the way she saw the world.
"It changed the way I saw my faith, it changed the way I saw the purpose of my education and it changed the way that I envisioned what I was called to do," Laux said.
During her last years at Aquinas College, Laux went to Spain for another semester abroad, hoping she would discover her vocation. Laux said after graduation she did not know what she wanted to do and was still "adrift."
After working as a missionary in Central America post-graduation, Aquinas College offered her a position as the director for study abroad in an interim capacity. Afterward, Laux served as the study abroad coordinator at Michigan State University and then the director for learning abroad at the University of Utah.
"What really draws me to international education is the opportunity to engage with students at that level and understanding all of the challenges that they face," Laux said. "Whether it's being nervous about applying because I was the student who didn't intend to apply or whether it was navigating the culture when I got on-site, I've been there and I've been able to walk students through that process or whether the challenge is coming home because for me that was a challenge."
When asked about the difference between Hall's previous title as dean of IP and her own, Laux said it is the same position despite the alternate title.
"I am finishing up a doctorate [in education], and it would be highly unusual in international education for someone who doesn't have a doctorate to have the title of dean," Laux said.
Laux said she has a few more courses to finish this year and will then begin her dissertation at Northeastern University in Massachusetts.
Once she receives her doctorate, Laux said the title will be changed back to dean of IP to reflect her educational level at that point, but the work will not change.
Laux said she does not foresee any immediate changes because of Pepperdine's "wonderful foundation" and will focus on learning this year.
"I have heard, several times, the phrase 'Leadership without context is chaos,' and so this year is about the context and learning that context so that I can support Pepperdine students and faculty," Laux said.
However, Laux said she is interested in looking into research opportunities abroad in order to prepare students for graduate school or expanding internships to build a stronger connection between IP and the workforce.
"A lot of those things are [already] in the IP programs," Laux said. "What I want to explore is trying to make them universally accessible to all programs."
Laux said she believes that Pepperdine has a lot of untapped potential at this point.
In an effort to become acquainted with the programs, Laux said she hopes to visit all of the sites in her first year and has already been to Pepperdine's Shanghai campus.
Laux said she has visited and worked in over 20 countries.
Even so, Laux said "one of the things that I've found, as I reflect on my travels, is that I really don't have a favorite place; I have favorite things about each place."
Laux said she is excited about helping IP be more successful in terms of students' intercultural competence, which is becoming increasingly valuable in a globalized world. Her travel experience will be valuable in this aspect of her position.
"I've been the student going abroad; I've been the faculty director who is accompanying students along and sort of supporting them through that journey; I've been the program director on site welcoming students to a program, and I've been an administrator in the United States trying to run programs from the main campus perspective," Laux said.
Dean of Seaver College Michael Feltner spoke of his confidence in Laux in a press release published April 1.
"Beth is imminently qualified and prepared to lead international programs into the future," Feltner wrote. "I am excited to work alongside her to advance our existing programs and to explore new opportunities that provide students with opportunities for intellectual, social, personal and spiritual transformations."
Laux said she was drawn to apply to Pepperdine because of the university's strong foundation and the faith-based component of the institution.
Feltner agreed.
"I am confident that from this foundation, Beth will lead international programs to even greater height," Feltner wrote.
Feltner and Laux said they greatly value the university's Church of Christ background and its connection to education.
"I am really looking forward to reconnecting spiritual growth with international education," Laux said.
As IP experiences new change in the Malibu office with Laux assuming her new position, new leadership is also occurring in the Buenos Aries program with Travis Hill-Weber appointed as the new director of the program. These exciting changes are leading IP and Seaver College as a whole in a new direction.

Q: Creating a numpy array from a .csv file Given a .csv file that look like this:
49.18;-3.34
45.73;2.63
47.88;-11.49
45.74;3.06
48.73;-9.56
49.20;-3.42

I use the following code:
data = np.genfromtxt("file.csv",  delimiter=';')

And the resulting array looks like this:
[[ 49.18  -3.34]
 [ 45.73   2.63]
 [ 47.88 -11.49]
 [ 45.74   3.06]
 [ 48.73  -9.56]
 [ 49.2   -3.42]
 [ 45.71   2.53]
 [ 47.87 -11.67]]

But what I want is this:
 [[ 49.18 , -3.34]
 [ 45.73 ,  2.63]
 [ 47.88 , -11.49]
 [ 45.74 ,  3.06]
 [ 48.73 , -9.56]
 [ 49.2  , -3.42]
 [ 45.71 ,  2.53]
 [ 47.87 , -11.67]]

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot, and I hope you can help me

A: What is the output of
data.shape

I believe it is already working as you wish.

A: If you really need an array instead of a numpy-array, then you can convert your np.array to a list with tolist():
my_list = data.tolist()

Please remember that with a list you only can index every dimension with following notation:
print my_list[0][0]

and with a numpy-array you can use both notations:
print data[0,0]
print data[0][0]

Trump thinks clean coal is when workers mine coal and then actually 'clean it'
Back in the real world, clean coal remains a fantasy.
Joe Romm Aug 23, 2017, 2:39 pm
REPRINTED WITH PERMISSION BY RYAN J. GILL, NOTMYEARTHNOTMYPROBLEM.COM
How off the rails was President Donald Trump's rally speech in Phoenix Tuesday night? He spouted utter nonsense on clean coal, and it didn't even make CNN's story, "Donald Trump's 57 most outrageous quotes from his Arizona speech."
Trump appears to believe that clean coal — which, it must always be pointed out, doesn't actually exist — is when workers mine coal and then physically "clean it." That does not happen, but facts have never stopped Trump.
Trump explains clean coal: They're going to take out clean coal, meaning they're taking out coal. they're gonna clean it. #PhoenixRally 🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/vciGHOM44I
— Richard W. (@IceManNYR) August 23, 2017
"We've ended the war on beautiful, clean coal, and it's just been announced that a second, brand-new coal mine," said Trump, "where they're going to take out clean coal — meaning, they're taking out coal. They're going to clean it — is opening in the state of Pennsylvania, the second one."
There are many misstatements or outright lies in those brief lines. First and foremost, "clean coal" is a fantasy. You can't "clean it." In terms of carbon pollution, coal is the dirtiest of fossil fuels, so you couldn't clean coal unless you could remove or capture all the carbon and bury it.
The phrase "clean coal" refers to expensive and mostly non-commercial technologies that reduce pollution and capture carbon dioxide when coal is burned. Even Robert Murray, CEO of the country's largest privately held coal-mining company, doesn't believe in that. "Carbon capture and sequestration does not work," he said last month. "It is neither practical nor economic."
Coal CEO admits that 'clean coal' is a myth
Coal baron says carbon capture and storage 'does not work' and 'is just cover for the politicians.'
Second, there never was a "war on coal." Indeed, as we reported last month, a leaked draft of the Department of Energy's electric grid study concluded that factors like environmental regulations and renewable energy subsidies "played minor roles" in the shutdown of big coal plants.
Instead, coal has simply become uneconomic. "[Coal] plants that have retired are old and inefficient units that were not recovering their operations and fuel costs, much less capital cost recovery," the draft report says.
Finally, Trump's "second, brand-new coal mine" in Pennsylvania is actually a renovation and reopening project for a metallurgical coal mine. The increase in the metallurgical coal market is largely being driven by China's steel industry, not by any policies from Trump, as the Washington Post fact checker explained in June. The mine project will create, at most, dozens of jobs.
Trump's trade rhetoric was key to his campaign. Now it's totally incoherent.
Trump has walked back most of his comments on trade.
The Post gave Trump three Pinocchio's for lying about the first coal plant back in June. These new statements deserves a lot more.

Q: 8086 Write file without overwriting I have an assignment on 8086 assembly (this is homework), I need to display a BMP image on screen and create an ASCII textfile from the BMP (like those ASCII art sofware do).
I have covered the display part, and I finished "translating" BMP to ASCII. However, as you know BMP files have the pixel row info upside down, that is, the topmost row is written last on the file.
So I thought that, for creating the .txt file, I could simply write a line, return the pointer to the start of the file, and then write another line, and so on. However, now it seems obvious to me that doing that would just overwrite the previous line, and I end up with a text file with just a single line.
So, in conclussion, my question is: Has anyone any suggestion as to how to approach this situation? I would very much appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!
PD: I'm not asking for direct solutions, there just may be something or some tool that I don't know about, that can help me with this problem.

A: You cannot easily insert into a text file.
However, because you know how many rows of text to write, and what the length of each row is (including newline), you can seek to the correct part of the file and start writing there.
Begin by writing out entirely spaces (and newlines).  Then for each scanline of text, seek to the appropriate location and output one line of text.
Alternatively, read the bitmap scanlines in reverse order.

The Majority Leader of Ogun State House of Assembly, Adeyinka Mafe, has denied any connection with some suspected cultists arrested for alleged murder by operatives of the Zonal Intervention Squad (ZIS) in Obada Oko, Abeokuta.
The lawmaker said he was shocked by media reports linking him as sponsor of four cult members held by the ZIS of the Zone 2 Police Command, Onikan, Lagos. The suspects, including Olushola Adedeji, Olusegun Olalekan a.k.a Musket, Azeez a.k.a Anene and Abolore a.k.a A.B, were recently apprehended in Sagamu for allegedly shooting to death a resident in the town.
But speaking in an interview with journalists, Mafe, representing Sagamu 1 State Constituency on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), said his hands are clean in the matter.
He said at no point did the police invite him for questioning, adding that the murder he was accused of sponsoring occurred in Sagamu about seven years ago during a cult clash. Mafe, who also said he was aware of moves by the lawmaker representing Remo Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Oladipupo Adebutu, to frustrate him, claimed that his adversaries were using some elements within the Zone 2 Command, Lagos to settle political scores.
The Majority Leader also challenged the police to produce four suspects they claimed to have arrested and charge them to court He said: "I was very shocked to read about the report because as an honourable man and the majority leader of Ogun State House of Assembly, I do not have a business sponsoring cultists, especially at this moment when I have nothing to gain in sponsoring them.
"I am more surprised because this is coming at a time when we all know that Ladi Adebutu is visiting Sagamu and it is in the public domain he's the one sponsoring the fake news against my person.
Mafe recalled how the state government had been striving to ensure peace in Sagamu and stamp out cultism in the town. He said: "We have been working to have peace in Sagamu and that is what we are enjoying today and it saddens my heart that somebody is bringing the name of Sagamu and Remo in the news for bad reasons because we've worked on these boys, counselled them and reorientated them and we are enjoying peace in Sagamu.
