i need my haircut. it's been about a year and a half since i bleached it last and i've not really had it cut so much as trimmed for the past several years so now it's easy to see the difference between the healthy parts and the damaged parts. meh.
the pic on the left is a relatively accurate representation of my current style… if mine was blow-dried and flat-ironed, except mine is longer, a little more split-endy, and my bangs (fringe) are (is) almost to my chin.
the picture on the right is the cut i've been seriously considering. i think it would get rid of most/all of the damaged bits and give it some much-needed volume. also, i like the shape of it and i think it would suit me especially since my hair mostly lays like that anyway PLUS i think it would grow out nicely.
i still have a week and a half or so to think about it but i'm leaning pretty hard in this direction… which reminds me – i should probably call shannon and book an appointment.

I say go for it. It'll grow back if you don't like it.
Its still pretty long if you go for the style above, so I say go for it.
Shorter good hair looks way better than long bad hair!
oooh, love it!!! you should go for it!!!

Foleys Dominate Second Junior Tournament of 2016
Three weeks after the summer term's first junior cricket tournament at American Academy Larnaka, the second event held on 10 June at Happy Valley, Episkopi attracted even more aspiring young cricketers. Seven schools were involved, sadly not including Aspire or King Richard from Dhekelia, who had played so well to take the first three places between them at Larnaka.
For this event, staged with the kind help of Episkopi School, there were separate events for boys and girls, organised so that each team played at least two matches during the afternoon. Twelve teams took part in the boys' event, while there were seven in the girls' competition.
A team of volunteer officials from CCA took care of the umpiring and score-keeping, while the teachers tried to keep the children out of the sun until their turn to play.
By the time the semi-final stage was reached, only two of the seven participating schools were not represented – bad luck for The Learning Centre, Peyeia and American Academy, Larnaka – the two who had had the furthest to travel to Happy Valley!
The boys' semi-finals saw Heritage A defeat Episkopi A while Foleys A beat Silverline B. In the girls' event Episkopi had mixed fortunes, their A-team beating Akrotiri B while their B-team lost to Foleys A.
And so to the finals, where Foleys gained a double triumph. Their girls A-team comfortably beat Episkopi A by 134 runs to 111. The real drama came in the boys' final where Foleys A produced a remarkable come-back to beat an unlucky Heritage A with a boundary off the very last ball.
A marvellous end to a full afternoon of sport. Foleys duly collected their medals, and will no doubt be looking to repeat their success next year.
CCA would like to express appreciation for all the young cricketers who participated, their teachers and parents, and the volunteer helpers who ensured the day was a success.

Indonesia delays plan to ban sex out of marriage and limit other personal freedoms

More than 1 million Australians who visit Bali each year could be affected by the proposed changes. (ABC News: Phil Hemingway)

Indonesian President Joko Widodo has suspended a raft of draconian amendments to the country's criminal code — that would ban sex outside marriage and limit other personal freedoms.
The Government had been planning on bringing forward a vote on the new criminal code next week
But late on Friday, the Government said it would delay introducing the new laws
More than 6 million tourists visited Indonesia last year
The Indonesian Government had been planning to bring forward a vote on a new national criminal code as early as next week. Among other things, it would make it illegal to criticise the president, have sex outside of marriage, sell contraceptives and take away a women's rights to choose an abortion.
But late on Friday, Mr Widodo delayed the bill's passage until the new parliament is inaugurated next month, meaning debate and a vote will begin again.
Rights groups in the country have criticised the proposed legislation as an assault on basic freedoms, while hundreds of students staged protests outside the parliament against the proposed changes.
Earlier, the Australian Government updated its travel advice for Indonesia, warning tourists they could be jailed for having sex outside of marriage if proposed laws are passed — with charges only proceeding if there is a complaint from a spouse, parent or child.
Tourism may be affected

More than 6 million tourists visited Bali last year, including more than 1 million Australians, according to Indonesia's bureau of statistics.
Aaron Connelly, who leads the Southeast Asian Politics and Foreign Policy program at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, said tourism would "certainly be affected" if the bill was passed as originally planned.
"European diplomatic missions in Jakarta have argued to legislators that its provisions, particularly against extramarital sex, will require that they update their travel notices and lead to a flood of bad press," he told the ABC.
"Same-sex couples may feel particularly uncomfortable visiting Indonesia, as a part of the provision would criminalise same-sex relations by default.
"The bill will damage the perception of Indonesia as a tolerant place, and make many Westerners think twice about visiting."
Indonesia's Islamic conservatism
A string of controversial events highlights the rise of Islamic conservatism across Indonesia.
Gus Agung, head of Bali's Tourism Board, told the ABC the views of the regional government in Bali "are not always aligned with Jakarta".
"The Hindu culture accepts everyone who comes to Bali to enjoy the island. The influence of hardline clerics in Jakarta has no effect in Bali," he said.
When asked whether tourists in Indonesia could face jail for extramarital sex, Indonesian politician Teuku Taufiqulhadi said: "No problem, as long as people don't know."
But Dr Lindsey questioned that sentiment.
"Criminal laws apply to everyone, including foreigners," he said.
'Disastrous for all Indonesians'
Under the proposed laws, there would be a four-year prison term for women who have an abortion. (ABC: Archicco Guiliano)
Human rights groups had criticised the proposal, which includes jail time and stiff penalties, saying millions of Indonesian could be affected.
"Indonesia's draft criminal code is disastrous not only for women and religious and gender minorities, but for all Indonesians," Andreas Harsono, senior Indonesia researcher at Human Rights Watch, said in a statement.
Under the proposed laws, unmarried couples who live together as a husband and wife could be jailed for six months or face a maximum fine of 10 million rupiah ($1,046), which is three months' salary for many Indonesians.
'Not Muslim enough'
Indonesia's election ignites piety debates, causing divisions within families.
There would also be a maximum four-year prison term for women who have an abortion, applicable if there was no medical emergency or rape involved.
The code further introduces fines for some people who promote contraception, and a six-month prison term for unauthorised discussion of "tools of abortion".
Parliament has also reintroduced the offence of "attacking the honour or dignity" of Indonesia's president and vice-president.
A similar law was struck down by the Constitutional Court in 2006, and the new version is likely to be challenged by rights activists as well.
Insulting the government and state institutions also carries a prison term.
Even if the new laws are passed next week the changes would take two years to come into effect.

In Iran, the Gozinesh Law (passed in 1985) has the effect of prohibiting a number of religious and ethnic minorities from fully participating in civil life. This law and other gozinesh provisions make access to employment, education, and a range of other areas conditional upon a rigorous ideological screening, the principal prerequisite for which is devotion to the tenets of Islam.

These laws are regularly applied to discriminate against religious and ethnic groups that are not officially recognized, such as the Mandaeans, Ahl-e Haq, and followers of the Bahá'í Faith. The United Nations has repeatedly expressed concern over this practice in the reports of UN Secretary-General, in the reports of ILO, and so on. Some recent examples of such concerns are given below:

28. The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, after considering the combined eighteenth and nineteenth periodic reports of the Islamic Republic of Iran in August 2010, expressed concern at the limited enjoyment of political, economic, social and cultural rights by, inter alia, Arab, Azeri, Baloch and Kurdish communities and some communities of non-citizens, in particular with regard to housing, education, freedom of expression and religion, health and employment, despite the economic growth in the country.

The Committee drew particular attention to reports regarding the application of the "gozinesh" criterion, a selection procedure requiring prospective State officials and employees to demonstrate allegiance to the Islamic Republic of Iran and the State religion, and expressed concern that it might limit employment opportunities and political participation for members of Arab, Azeri, Baloch, Jewish, Armenian and Kurdish communities (see CERD/C/IRN/CO/18-19).

Regarding the current position of the Iran's Government concerning the law of gozinesh, ILO notes the following:

Discrimination on the basis of religion and ethnicity

The Committee notes that this Committee and the Conference Committee have on a number of occasions highlighted the seriousness of the situation of unrecognized religious minorities, in particular the Bahá'í, and the urgency of taking decisive action to combat discrimination against them. <...> The Committee also notes that EI has expressed concern regarding the religious-based discrimination against the Bahá'í in terms of access to education, universities, and to particular occupations in the public sector.

With respect to the practice of gozinesh, a selection procedure requiring prospective state officials and employees to demonstrate allegiance to the state religion, the Government states that two positions have been put forward regarding the Selection Law based on Religious and Ethical Standards, 1995: one group proposed that it be abolished, with selection decisions being solely based on qualifications; the second group proposed the amendment of some of the provisions of the Law. Both proposals were rejected, the first by a majority of members of Parliament, and the second by the Guardian Council.

The Government states that the Law recognizes not only Islam, but also the religions officially recognized in the Constitution. The Committee notes, however, that unrecognized religious minorities remain subject to the practice of gozinesh.

Q: Magic Code?! - .aspx Fields Missing & Disappear from Source Code I have a reeeaaally weird & strange problem with some form elements on a .ASPX page im working on.. the page form has a hidden slide-in on click of a div, section allowing the user to 'make a reservation'.
The jQuery used to animate the slide works fine, and happens on click on the ticky check-box (id="rescheck").
The problem is, instead of all the fields contained within the hidden div displaying on click of the checkbox, and thus sliding into view along with their labels, only one text field input shows, and nothing else. Checking the source code shows that these missing labels & fields are not even in the source code, dispite being in the page code when viewed (and edited) within MS Visual Studio 2008.
As you can see, the fields and their labels seem to just disappear in the browser! I have NO idea whats causing this, and am not sure where to go with it next.

A: Is there anything in the codebehind that sets the Visible property of any of the controls to false ? That causes the controls not to be rendered in the HTML at all instead of putting them in invisible state, which can be quite confusing because many wouldn't expect that.

Extent includes the land described as Lot 1 DP 70261, pt Section 34 Block XII Kerikeri SD; Lot 1 DP 72417 pt Section 34 Block XII Kerikeri SD, ;and Section 62 Block XII Kerikeri SD, (NZ Gazette 1975, p.1295 and p.1302 and 1979, p.3711), North Auckland Land District and the buildings / structures known as Edmonds Ruins associated with John Edmonds his family and descendants, thereon. (Refer to map in Appendix 1 of the Information Upgrade Report for further information).
The reserve is accessed down an accessway from Edmonds Road.
Edmonds Ruins, Kerikeri are the remains of a homestead and farm built by the first European settler family on the south side of the Kerikeri Inlet. The mortared stone house was built by John Edmonds and his sons between about 1840 and 1858, after his employment by the Church Missionary Society in Kerikeri had been terminated. After the house burned down about 1885, descendants continued to live on the property until the 1950s. Although the English methods of stone construction were imperfectly applied, the ruined stone house, the other structures and the dry stone walls that surround the adjacent paddocks were built sufficiently well that they have lasted to the present as an example of an early farm settlement.
John Edmonds (1801 - 1865) was a stonemason from Dorset who with his wife Mary Ann (1804 - 1862) and five sons arrived in the Bay of Islands in 1834 to work for the Church Missionary Society (CMS). Edmonds was a stone mason, sent out to erect the Stone Store at the Kerikeri Mission Station. By the time of his arrival, however, the Store was practically complete. In 1839 he was paid off by the CMS, and moved his family to the five acres of land he had bought near the mouth of the Kerikeri Inlet. The family probably lived in a wooden house on the river bank at Paetae (or Paitai), before moving 750m inland to build the stone house now forming the Ruins. The family moved to Auckland in 1845, returning after the Northern War.
The stone house was built from about 1840 onwards, in three main stages ending in 1858, using the basalt boulders that occur throughout the area. The first part of the house was a gabled shingled roof over two rooms, the western part of the present main structure, including the later oven, fire-place and flue in the southern wall. Subsequently, two rooms were added to the east, with a separate shingled gable roof, with two dormer windows. Finally, an Annexe was built separately to the west of the house. Further west was a small shed.
None of the house walls has any apparent foundation, and the stones are generally laid in stacks with a lack of deliberate bonding. There are some dressed quoins, but these are not bonded with the adjacent masonry. The lack of bonding produced a relatively weak structure. This is especially true of the northern wall around the intact chimney. Aidan Challis has suggested that because of John Edmonds' poor health, much of the building work apart from the dressed quoins and fireplace stones may have been done by John Edmonds' relatively inexperienced sons.
John Edmonds died in 1865, but members of the family continued to live in the house and farm the property. The main house was destroyed by fire in 1885 or 1886 and rendered uninhabitable. The annexe building continued to be occupied and Edmonds descendants lived on the site until the 1950s.
Several fields in the vicinity were surrounded by stone walls. The two principal fields in the reserve are surrounded by a stone wall, with a central dividing wall running east-west. This central wall and both the northern and southern boundary walls have been breached to form gateways. Adjacent to the south-east corner of the Reserve is a small walled burial ground, now administered by the Otahuao Burial Ground Trustees appointed by the Maori Land Court.
Edmonds Ruins represent a rare example in Northland of a stone farmhouse and related farm structures of the mid nineteenth century. The Ruins illustrate the lives of people associated with the Church Missionary Society missions after that association ceased, and provide a tangible link with the founding ancestors of the now widespread Edmonds whanau.

Maybe it's because of my previous experience as a scrapbook product designer, but I've always had a soft spot for designing coordinate patterns. They play such an important role in the world of scrapbooking; customers constantly look for simple patterns to complement more complicated ones on their pages.
That's why nearly all scrapbook collections out there feature double-sided papers; the A-side is reserved for unique and/or busy patterns while the B-side is the place for simpler, complementing ones. You see something similar in bolt fabric lines; a few stunning hero patterns sitting next to several other simpler designs to help round out the collection.
Both the scrapbooking and bolt fabric markets are unique in how much they focus on patterns when compared to other parts of the surface design industry. However, even as I've personally shifted towards more illustrative work, I still find a lot of value from including coordinates alongside hero patterns and illustrations in my portfolio.
Actually, I feel it's such an important part of a well rounded portfolio, that I'm sharing 3 reasons why you should consider including them in your portfolio too!
You probably already know how competitive the surface design industry is, so you should always try and package your designs to be as attractive to buyers as possible, especially because art directors want to get the most out of their budget as possible.
Scenario A: You have single holiday pattern with lots of detail.
Scenario B: You have that same detailed pattern sitting with 2 additional patterns that complement it.
If you were the art director, which would you choose? All things being equal, you'd probably choose the option that gave you the most to work with.
Try Something: Cover the 2 coordinates on the piece below and view the hero pattern on its own. Now remove your hand. Doesn't it look more enticing seeing it all packaged up like this?
There are many instances in surface design where a product features multiple images or patterns together, so it's important to show buyers that you've thought about how different patterns can work together harmoniously.
Now not every designer will have to understand pattern mixing (like an artist who focuses on editorial illustration for example), but if you're looking to get into a market where larger pattern collections are more common OR you're interested in taking on commissioned work from art directors that involves multiple patterns, confident pattern mixing is an important skill to develop and will make you all the more attractive to work with.
This may be a much less obvious reason, but it's one I was surprised and ecstatic to discover. It wasn't until I was reviewing my notes from Surtex last year that I realized how much impact a single coordinate pattern could have.
Sometimes art directors or buyers want something different, something understated, which is the perfect opportunity for simple coordinates! I had no less than half a dozen people at Surtex giving my coordinates more attention than their main pattern counterparts.
Crazy right?!? I had no idea that would happen, but I'm happy I had so many designs that included coordinates. The #1 favorite coordinate of the show: the fun polka dot you see in my holiday design below.
This is just another reason it's important to be able to give your client options. If I hadn't included some of my quirky coordinates alongside hero patterns on my booth banners and in my portfolio, some people I talked to at the show may have just passed my booth by. Think about those potential missed opportunities??
I hope I've convinced you how important and helpful it is to have interesting coordinate patterns in your portfolio. And I hope as you create new work, you'll consider adding some to your designs.
However, I also know lots of designers struggle with creating quick, yet interesting coordinate designs to enhance their portfolios.
That's why when deciding what my first Skillshare class would be, I realized this was the most helpful topic I could start with. My new class, How to Create Strong Coordinate Patterns, is just 15 minutes long so you can gain valuable insights fast and then immediately apply what you've learned to your portfolio.
My class has only been online for two weeks and I'm already so overwhelmed by the positive response it's gotten! I'm elated to hear just how many designers find my insights helpful for their own creative careers. You can read all the amazing reviews of the class here.
And I'm happy to say I'm already busy planning my 2nd Skillshare class! If you'd like to hear when my next class goes live you can follow me on Skillshare OR sign up for my newsletter.

Blog / By Clair Peel
For decades, women have worked hard and fought to gain equal opportunities and rights for themselves and the generations of women who follow them. March's Women's History Month offers a peek into the past, to remember the plight of women so that everyone in society can keep moving forward. Here at IQ Legal Training, we thought women's history month would be the perfect time to stop, look back, and celebrate the history of women in the legal profession.
Prior to The Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919, women were forbidden to practice law and so it was of course a male-only profession. However, this didn't stop Eliza Orme, (also called Elizabeth Orm), from becoming the first woman to earn a law degree in England, from University College London in 1888. Eliza received awards and scholarships in Political Economy, Jurisprudence, and Roman Law, but was unable to graduate as the University of London did not allow women to receive degrees at this time. In 1874, Eliza took it upon herself to write two notes for The Examiner on the subject of degrees for women at the University of London, arguing in favour of women's education. It took some time, but four years later, the university reversed its policy and permitted women to receive degrees. In 1878, Eliza passed the first two exams for the Bachelor of Laws with honours and in 1888, she received her LLB degree from the University of London. Although Eliza did not receive her degree until 1888, she began working in legal practice in 1872 and then went on to work in the chambers of a barrister in 1873 until 1875 when she opened her own office, drafting documents for conveyancing counsel and patent agents. She continued to work on legal matters in various formats until about 1904 but was never able to reach her aspiration to be recognised as a conveyancer under the bar.
Another landmark moment for women occurred in 1892, when Cornelia Sorabji, an Indian Lawyer, became the first woman to study law at Oxford University, one of the most prestigious universities in the world. This was without a doubt a mile-stone moment for both the university and for women everywhere. Following her studies in the UK, Cornelia returned to India, where she became involved in social and advisory work on behalf of women who were forbidden to communicate with the outside male world. Unable to defend them in court since, as a woman, she did not hold professional standing in the Indian legal system, she presented herself for the LLB examination of Bombay University in 1897 and the pleader's examination of Allahabad High Court in 1899. Cornelia became the first female advocate in India but would not be recognised as a barrister until the law which barred women from practising was changed in 1923.
Whilst no one can argue that history had been made by both Eliza and Cornelia, this was a small step on the road to equality and there was still a long way to go for women wishing to enter the legal profession. The 1900' saw a succession of highly educated women fight for the right to have careers in the legal profession.
Bertha Cave was one of these women. Bertha was a legal campaigner who fought, unsuccessfully, to be accepted to the bar. In 1903 Bertha applied to become the first female member of Gray's Inn, in order to allow her to be called to the bar. Despite her application initially being accepted, this decision was quickly overturned, and she was rejected based on her gender. Later that year Bertha appealed the decision, but unfortunately the proceedings which were held in the House of Lords returned the verdict that the decision would be upheld, once again on the grounds of gender.
It was argued by the Lords that woman "were under a disability by reason of their sex". Following the decision, Bertha continued with her campaign to fight for change alongside Dame Christabel Harriette Pankhurst DBE, a British suffragette until she moved to India two years later following her (unofficial) marriage to Colonel Ali Altafin 1905.
There would be little change for females wishing to practice law over the next decade or so, however this did not mean that the fight for change had ended. In fact, many other women had gone on to study law at university during this time including Gwyneth Marjorie Bebb, now the ninth woman to study law at Oxford University.
Gwyneth Marjorie Bebb completed her studies at Oxford University in 1911, gaining First-Class degree marks, but at that time women were still not awarded degrees or allowed to graduate. In 1913, she applied to join the Law Society but was denied entry due to her gender. Gwyneth is best known for being the plaintiff in Bebb v. The Law Society, a test case in the opening of the legal profession to women in Britain. She was expected to be the first woman to be called to the bar in England; in the end, her early death prevented that, and Ivy Williams was the first woman to qualify as a barrister in England, in May 1922.
Ivy Williams studied law at the Society of Oxford Home Students. By 1903, she had completed all her law examinations, but was prevented by the prevailing regulations concerning the qualification of women at Oxford from matriculating or receiving her BA, MA, and BCL, until the regulations were reformed in 1920. She obtained LLB from the University of London in 1901, and LLD from the same university in 1903. As the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919 came into force, she joined the Inner Temple as a student and was called to the bar in May 1922, having received a certificate of honour (first class) in her final bar examination in Michaelmas 1921 which excused her from keeping two terms of dinners. Her call to the bar was described by the Law Journal as "one of the most memorable days in the long annals of the legal profession". Ivy, however, decided not to go into private practice, instead opting to teach and thereby becoming the first woman in UK history to teach law at a university. In 1923, she became the first woman to be awarded the degree of DCL (Doctor of Civil Law) in Oxford for her published work.
There is no doubt that The Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919 changed the course of history and allowed women like Ivy to pave the way for other women in the UK who wished to pursue legal careers or indeed to teach the law. It didn't take long before numerous other women followed in Ivy's footsteps, including Helena Normanton who was the first practising female barrister in the UK. In November 1922, Helena, who was the second woman in England to be called to the bar, went on to become the first woman to obtain a divorce for her client, the first woman to lead the prosecution in a murder trial, and the first woman to conduct a trial in America and to appear at the High Court and the Old Bailey.
As well as a highly prestigious legal career with many well documented firsts, Helena also had a monumental first for women in her personal life too. Following her marriage, Helena chose to keep her maiden name as opposed to taking her husband's name, as tradition would dictate. Whilst she was not the first woman to do this, she was the first married British woman to be issued a passport in her maiden name after choosing not to take her husband's name for professional reasons. Although not uncommon today, when Helena did this in 1922, a period when women did not have the same rights to vote as men, this would have been very unusual and a little scandalous. Later in her career in 1949, Helena also became one of the first two female barristers to be appointed King's Council.
The other female barrister appointed to Kings Council alongside Helena was Rose Heilbron. Rose was another woman who achieved many well documented firsts during her career: she was the first woman to achieve a first-class honours degree in law at the University of Liverpool in 1935; she was England's first female judge as Recorder of Burnley in 1956; and the first woman to ever sit as a judge in the Old Bailey in 1972. Rose was the second female in history to become a High Court judge in England and did so in 1974 (the first being Elizabeth Lane). And not only that, but she was also the first female Presiding Judge of any Circuit when she became Presiding Judge on the Northern Circuit in 1978, which was another huge step towards equality for women in the legal profession.
Becoming a High Court Judge is a prestigious honour, and for a woman in 1965, the possibility of being appointed in a judicial role in the High Court was almost unthinkable. Even today only 26% of Senior Court appointments are female, so to become the first woman to ever sit as a High Court Judge in England marks a monumental turning point in history for women in the legal profession.
Dame Elizabeth Kathleen Lane DBE was an English barrister and judge, and the first female in history to become a High Court judge in England, leading the way for other women such as Rose Heilbron (as mentioned) to follow in her footsteps and to go on to wear High Court robes. Elizabeth became a student member of the Inner Temple in November 1937 and was called to the bar in 1940. Eight years later, in 1948, she was appointed as a member of the Home Office Committee of Enquiry to examine the use of depositions in criminal trials. Shortly after, in 1950, she was appointed King's Counsel and in 1962 she became the first woman to be appointed as a judge in the County Court, another huge milestone towards equality for women in law. Three short years later, Elizabeth went on to become the first female High Court judge in England. Elizabeth was then appointed as Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, corresponding to the customary knighthood received on appointment by a male High Court judge. In 1966, Dame Elizabeth was made a bencher of the Inner Temple and in doing so, becoming the first female bencher of any Inn of Court.
These women led the way for females in the legal profession and in doing so changed the course of history for all women today. Having the courage to stand up and fight for your rights in today's world can be a challenging and daunting task, but as a millennial woman living in a world where change happens much more frequently and at a quicker pace than it would have in the 1800s and 1900s, where people are far less inclined to sit back and accept that they cannot change the wrongs in society and when choosing to take a stand against those wrongs, often do so with the support and backing of the masses thanks to the help of the internet and social media.
One can only imagine the bravery it must have taken for these women to stand up for the change they wanted to see at a time without technology when tradition and men largely dictated the future.

Jay Inslee Helped Make Climate Change a Top Campaign Issue. He Says That's Not Enough
By Justin Worland
During his six-month campaign for president, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee made climate change a focus of the Democratic presidential primary, forcing it onto the debate stage and pushing other candidates to match his ambitious plans. But Inslee believes that is not enough. Candidates may be talking about climate change, he told me on Aug. 10 over a beer at Waters Edge Bar & Grill in Polk City, Iowa, but none understand what it will take to prevent the potentially catastrophic effects of a warming planet.
"You have to have the leader of the free world totally committed to this, and totally committed to a full mobilization of the United States," he said. "I'm unique in understanding the level of commitment that it takes to get this done."
To understand what his departure from the race on Wednesday means for climate issues, it's helpful to hear him talk about why he doesn't see the elevated climate discussion as a victory. Inslee released hundreds of pages in plans to tackle climate change during his campaign, any portion of which could be adopted by a future Democratic president, but his biggest contribution, something unmatched by any other candidate, was his argument that climate change needs to be the single top priority of the next president. With Inslee out of the race, Democratic presidential candidates will continue to talk about climate change, but they will lose a force that pressed them to make it more than just one issue among many. "This should be the top priority of the United States, I'm the only candidate who's said that," he said. "This cannot be just something on a to do list on your refrigerator."
Inslee has left his mark. Several Democratic candidates have acknowledged Inslee's role as the campaign's climate leader on the campaign trail, and all of them were quick to praise his work upon his departure. "Few leaders have done more to shine a light on the climate crisis," Senator Kamala Harris wrote on Twitter. "His voice will be missed in this primary but I know he will continue this fight."
But the climate gap between Inslee and the others is easy to see, especially in the sheer depth and breadth of Inslee's climate plans. The more than 200 pages he released touch on everything from methane leakage to soil health and won near-universal praise from activists and climate policy wonks. Even in the last hours of his campaign, Inslee released a plan for farmers and rural communities. "Inslee's campaign set the gold standard," says David Turnbull of Oil Change U.S.
Some candidates, like former Vice President Joe Biden and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, have followed, releasing their own plans with bold targets to decarbonize the U.S. economy by the middle of the century. Other top-tier contenders, most notably California Senator Kamala Harris and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, have offered more piecemeal climate proposals, calling the issue an existential threat but declining to make it their top priority.
Scientists say that humans have a limited window to stem greenhouse emissions in order to keep temperatures from rising more than 1.5°C by the end of the century; if they don't, climate scientists have concluded, the warming planet will drive hundreds of millions of people into poverty and destroy the world's coral reefs, among other dangerous effects.
The U.S. accounts for around 15% of global emissions and has led in the past on the issue. If Washington does not change course in the next administration, the world could easily blow past the 1.5°C target, scientists say.
Some in the Democratic party are skeptical not of the urgency of climate change, but of it's political power. Activists worry these voices will frame Inslee's departure as a sign that voters don't actually care all that much about the issue. But the evidence seems to suggest otherwise. Polls have consistently shown that Democratic primary voters rank climate change as a top concern and candidates are hearing from worried voters in early states who are eager to talk about the issue.
"We still have too many people who are trapped by the past, and aren't understanding the present," Inslee told me. "Maybe 10 years ago this was not a first-tier issue in voters minds, but it is now."
That position stands up on the ground in Iowa. During a five-day trip there earlier this month, voters repeatedly told me that they were eager to evaluate candidates' positions on climate change even if they would not vote solely on that one issue. At the Iowa State Fair on Aug. 10, Des Moines resident Rachel Wilke-Shapiro thanked Inslee for his work spotlighting climate change even as she donned a Kamala Harris t-shirt.
"He's keeping that issue at the forefront, that's good," she told me. "We're really all invested in what's going to happen with climate change."
Other voters across the state, most of whom were undecided on whom they would support, offered similar perspectives, citing water quality, flooding and other extreme weather as real-life impacts that make them feel the urgency of the issue.
Mary Jane Porter told me on the sidelines of the Wing Ding dinner in Clear Lake, Iowa that climate change was a top priority, pointing to water quality issues in the state among other things, but she nonetheless remained torn on who to support.
When I asked about Inslee, she didn't skip a beat. "He would be good for the cabinet," she said.
That would be one way to help ensure climate change remains front and center in Americans' minds. Still, when I spoke with him on Aug. 10 the governor remained skeptical that his counterparts would make the issue their top priority. "I don't think other candidates either recognize or are willing to make that commitment."

Very elegant John, and how nice for the museum visitors to actually see the model being created and get to interact with you. With all the frames in place this fragile curvy symmetry is certainly impressive.
Smaller gaff topsails may not use hoops or any lacing. It took a while to figure it out, the boat I am building uses one. Leather does not mention it but Tom Cunliffe in "Hand Reef and Steer" has a small chapter on flying top sails. There is also a You tube video hoisting such a top sail. I found somewhere on the net the following explanation which I saved: "It's true that the side the sail went up on will need to be the side it comes down, but it's nice to have a free choise as to which side it goes up. The halyard is essentially either-ended anyway, what's the hoist one time can be the haul the next. The sheet cannot be two ended but if the bitter end is at the end of the boom, you can bring it forward on either side. So you're free to set on starboard or port tack as is convenient, but at the end of the sail you must strike on the same tack you set on. Halyard goes to a shackle at top of mast. When sail down, there are two ends on deck on either side of running rigging /boom/gaff, so the sail can be tied to either end and hoisted on either side. There is a similar arrangement for mid sail to attach a second point to mast. The downhaul just goes straight down to deck. The tack goes to end of gaff, when not in use it is slack and tied to end of boom." http://forum.woodenboat.com/showthread.php?144433-How-To-Rig-Topsail Although this does not apply to your boat Tomculb, there is little info on gaff top sails and this seems a good thread to add this little bit of info.
Many thanks to all, I did not actually have the time to work more on the spreaders but good to know I am on the right path. I have been slowly catching up with people's work and I was able to spend only a few moments on the boat as life got very busy again. I started work on the rudder and also did a few other bits and bobs. I laminated two pieces of plywood and made a very strong rudder, sanded to final shape and cut two thick pieces of cherry for the side panels. For the tiller I laminated some cherry off cuts. This is the rudder assembly, the tiller is not yet sanded to shape I also installed the ladder. it is only held in place by these 4 tree nails Another task that I had to deal with at some point was to install the hatches. The cabin roof one was easy with some thickened epoxy but the fore hatch simply had no attachment points. I made a card pattern, drilled 6 holes and then used the pattern to drill 6 identical holes on the deck. Well, only 3 were actually aligned but even with just three tree nails it seems very well secured. Then I sanded, sealed and primed the rudder and then the long process of applying dozens of coats of paint started. Acrylics are easy to use but coverage is abysmal compared to enamels. Still, being able to paint in the dining room table is a big plus. Time to put the little ones to sleep!
Pure Tung Oil refuses to dry in 10 days - what to do?
My understanding is that Tung oil polymerises in the presence of oxygen. So with time it will turn into a plastic like polymer. The 50% dilution is to allow it to penetrate deeper, thus giving better protection. I have a container of pure Tung oil that I have been using for years (its almost empty now), squeezing the metal as the oil gets used up so that there is as little air in contact with the oil as possible. If I do not open the bottle for 4-5 weeks, it is then very difficult as the oil in the cap polymerises and solidifies. Opening the bottle earlier is fine so really it takes many weeks for a full cure. Tung oil finish takes a very long time as many thin coats needs to be applied, waiting a few days in between for some degree of cure to happen. I remember reading that in ancient China it could take a year for a Tung oil finished table to be ready. There is also polymerised Tung oil I think that cures much faster, the equivalent of boiled linseed oil. My 2 cents!
Keith, Druxey and Michael, many thanks I continued working on the hoops but also made the last brass band that will accept two shrouds on each side, the spreaders, the forestay and staysail and the throat halyard. It took a few hours to make and while I was polishing it, it got picked up by the steel brush wheel and ruined. So I started again. This time it took much less time and actually I think it looks better The spreader is the correct length to sit at the proper angle, the top shroud will be at a 15 degrees angle to the mast. The shape looks a bit wrong though, not sure if I need to reduce the thickness or just to round the edges.
I think they were 0.5 mm x 4 mm Keith. I actually passed the hoops through the disc sander to reduce the height to half. Birch, beech or maple would be better choices though.
Very nice Mark! Very elegant work.

Facebook loses chief product officer, WhatsApp head as it pivots to privacy
Chris Cox, Facebook's chief product officer, and WhatsApp VP Chris Daniels are leaving.

Facebook Chief Product Officer Chris Cox is leaving the social media company after 13 years.
James Martin/CNET
Facebook, which has been embroiled in a series of scandals, is losing two more top executives as it focuses on building a more "privacy-focused social platform."
On Thursday, the company announced that Chief Product Officer Chris Cox and Chris Daniels, who heads Facebook-owned messaging app WhatsApp, are leaving.
The leadership shuffle comes a week after Facebook CEO and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg announced that the world's largest social network is focusing more on private messaging and ephemeral content. In the future, Zuckerberg predicted, Facebook's users will be posting more in messaging apps than they do on their public News Feeds.
Facebook Chief Product Officer Chris Cox (left) is a close friend of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg (right).
Cox is among Facebook's highest-ranking executives and has been at the company for 13 years. In a note to employees about Cox's departure, Zuckerberg said Cox had been talking to him for a few years about doing something else but decided to stay after 2016 to help improve the social network.
Cox worked on some of Facebook's key products, including the social network's News Feed, and led the product and design teams. He also built Facebook's first human resources teams and oversaw the strategy for the apps that Facebook owns, Zuckerberg wrote.
The New York Times, citing people involved in the situation, reported that Cox and Daniels left after disagreements with Zuckerberg.
Daniels, who became the head of WhatsApp in May, was apparently unhappy with choices being made around the company's plans to merge Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram messaging. Cox also butted heads with Zuckerberg over plans to integrate Facebook's messaging apps along with other product ideas, according to The New York Times' report.
Cox and Daniels did not immediately respond to comment. Facebook declined to comment on The New York Times' report.
Facebook doesn't plan to appoint anyone to immediately fill Cox's role. Zuckerberg announced that Will Cathcart will be the new head of WhatsApp and Fidji Simo will be the new head of the Facebook app.
"This is an important change as we begin the next chapter of our work building the privacy-focused social foundation for the future," Zuckerberg said in the note.
Cox and Daniels are among a string of executives who've left Facebook since 2017. In October, Oculus co-founder and former CEO Brendan Iribe announced he was leaving the Facebook-owned virtual reality company. Instagram co-founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, WhatApp's Brian Acton and Jan Koum and Oculus co-founder Palmer Luckey have also departed.
Cox posted about his departure on Facebook, but didn't explain why he decided to leave. He did point out Facebook is "turning a new page" by focusing more on messaging and encryption.
"It's a product vision attuned to the subject matter of today: a modern communications platform that balances expression, safety, security and privacy," Cox wrote in a Facebook post. "This will be a big project and we will need leaders who are excited to see the new direction through."

Private schools fare well on AP exams
Jennifer Sami
Updated: Feb. 22, 2011, 8 a.m.
The Georgia Department of Education recently honored schools from across the state for top performances on Advanced Placement, or AP, tests.
While the state report didn't include private schools, that doesn't mean the ones in Forsyth County are not doing well.
In fact, students from Pinecrest Academy are excelling on AP tests, officials say.
Principal John Tarpley estimated nearly half of Pinecrest's high school students are enrolled in at least one AP course, and the most recent results showed 85 percent of students passed their AP exams.
In AP European history, studio art and Spanish literature, 100 percent of Pinecrest students passed the exam.
The AP exams are administered by the College Board. College credit may be given for scores of 3, 4 or 5.
"Our students are diligent, they want to be in AP classes and they tend to do well," Tarpley said. "This is due not only to the students, but to our highly trained AP teachers.
"As principal, I am of course gratified by the high pass rate that we have achieved."
At Covenant Christian Academy, 10 of the school's 13 high school seniors are enrolled in the school's only AP class, English literature and composition.
The participation is unusually high and double that of last year, said Karla Friday, middle and high school administrator.
"It's very rigorous. They start reading in the summer before the year starts," she said. "We do have a very good return on grades on [exams].
"We generally score in the 4s and 5s ... I don't remember a time that we've had anything under a 3.
Friendship Christian School doesn't track results from exams, which students take on their own.
Last year, the school offered its first AP U.S. History course, said Butch Quinn, dean of students, who also teaches various history classes in middle and high school.
About nine students participated, mostly seniors and juniors. While that may not sound like many, Quinn said Friendship's high school enrollment is only about 20 students.
"Last year was the first time the AP class was taught," he said. "The students, their averages were somewhere around a 90 percent plus on the testing.
"We'll do it about every other year because of the class sizes."
Horizon Christian Academy also offers AP courses for its high school students, though officials could not be reached for comment last week.
To qualify as a state AP merit school based on the National Advanced Placement Report for the class of 2010, at least 20 percent of students had to take AP exams, and at least half had to pass.
At Pinecrest, Tarpley said student achievement is linked to its goal as a college preparatory high school. Students are prepared to meet admission standards set by the state university system.
He also credited parent involvement.
"We look to parents, who are financing a private education for their child, to stay closely involved in the academic process," he said.
"This pays great dividends in the classroom as the teachers get to know the parents, and know that parents are being supportive of their efforts in the home."

Comic scripts are the starting point for a comic story. It's also the second step in the work that leads to the creation of a comic strip: the first one is the subject, the plot of the story.
The script of a comic book shows to the comic artist rhythms and duration of the story, it's a sort of orchestral conductor who directs the drawings towards pre-established goals and purposes.
A very original comic story is written and drawn by the same person: the artist writes the comic script and draws the comic pages.
This comic story is a sort of a living creature, directly born and raised by the cartoonist.
I start from an idea and then I develop the plot of the story, with a well defined beginning, a body and a conclusion. But first I have to know the number of the pages of the comic story.
After that, I divide the plot in comic pages and panels, I write a description for each panel and characters' dialogue, captions and sound effects.
For my short stories (1 or 4 pages,) that I wrote in the past, I drew quick sketches on paper to visualize the scenes and this helped me in the script.


"who:ru" (who are you?) was inspired by social media, cartography, and information graphics.
"who:ru" is an emergent piece that worked through the interactions of attendees to a regional tech gathering.
The intent of this installation was to explore releasing some degree of authorship, and to allow a piece to grow within specific parameters. To this end, a large scale map of the United States was temporarily projected onto a gallery wall for geographical reference locating the top 50 populated US cities. A single connective string was used to tie them together in sequential order, simultaneously referencing the outer edges of the US through Gestalt effect. Night time satellite imagery of Earth served as a point of inspiration for its ability to communicate density and activity through only points of light. Similarly, each participant was a represented through a map pin with demographic information. Attendees were encouraged to locate a custom profile map pin on the city where they were currently working. This profile pin identified each person's area of work emphasis (architecture, web design, graphic design, startup, advertising, etc.), gender, and number of times they have attended the gathering. This installation was a twist on social networking except, rather than having a virtual presence, connections are tangible and manifest the conference demographic. Eventually, the projected lines of the map, which we understand as borders between states, were removed. At that point, the only remains were the avatars of people and their relative connection. Data collected was translated into a set of information graphics illustrating the conference demographic.


The instrument is designed to measure linear and circular motion parameters like angular velocity, linear velocity, centrifugal force, rpm and other related parameters from equations.
As instrument starts to rotate there will be variation in the level of fluid and output voltage from strain gauge due to tension that is generated from centrifugal force.
The level measurement of fluid in beaker or variation in output voltage of strain gauge will show the magnitude of centrifugal force by calibration. Now we can calculate the other parameters like velocity 'v' by solving the centrifugal force equation (mv2/r= F).
Same will follow to calculate the other values like 'N', Omega etc. by inserting the known values and solving the equations.

- The Party Politburo has recently issued the Directive number 33-CT/TW to strengthen the Party's leadership over the implementation of asset declarations by officials. What do you think about the impact of this Directive to the anti-corruption battle in Vietnam?
I think Directive 33 of Politburo is completely right and meaningful, and it is perhaps the time for the Party to strengthen its role in dealing with corruption. However, my question is why the spirit of this regulation was not implemented earlier?
Vietnam, so far, has many regulations and legal documents to request officials to declare assets and incomes. The content of Directive 33 is quite similar to previous regulations. Vietnam has a saying "new wine in old bottle". I think this should be avoided. I would say Vietnam has built comprehensive anti-corruption legal framework, including regulations on asset declaration. Nevertheless, I suggest it is time to seriously enforce those regulations.
- How far do you think Vietnam has gone in terms of anti-corruption efforts?
I think Vietnam has made much progress in the past 10 years. Vietnam signed the UN Convention on Anti-Corruption in 2003 and ratified it in 2009. It is 2014 now and Vietnam is still urging for stronger efforts in anti-corruption.
- There is an argument for the poor results in Vietnam's anti-corruption that: "It is the same situation in every poor developing country". Do you agree with this?
It is understandable. You could take South Korea and Singapore as examples. These countries were much corrupted when they were poor, but when they became more developed, they gained remarkable achievements in the corruption battle, with transparent regulations on anti-corruption. People tend to compare Vietnam with China, but we have witnessed strong determination of Chinese government in fighting corruption in the past few years. The anti-corruption drive in China even captured the highest-level officials in the political system.
- Don't you see Vietnam is unleashing a similar anti-corruption campaign?
- That is true. This is why I am optimistic about the anti-corruption campaign in Vietnam. This issue now is discussed in more transparent and opened manners. It is visible that Vietnamese leaders are more willing to fight corruption and put corrupted officials on trial.
On the other side, despite corruption, Vietnam is still moving forward. Despite corruption, Vietnam is building better infrastructure. Despite corruption, Vietnam is attracting a huge foreign direct investment. Could you imagine how far Viet Nam could go without corruption?
- Does this mean you are confident that Directive 33 will have a positive impact in Vietnam's anti-corruption battle?
You could not expect tomorrow a complete overnight improvement in anti-corruption, or in 2014. However, the Party could lay a foundation in 2014 to start "cleaning the house". Anti-corruption is like a marathon. If you run too fast, you will run out of energy and are unable to reach the destination.
I am optimistic. Through what I have witnessed, anti-corruption efforts in Vietnam are at medium speed and still have enough energy for acceleration in the next phase. In 2016, when a new generation of leaders is elected, I expect that the anti-corruption efforts in Vietnam will reach a new turn.
- What are the lessons that Vietnam could learn from other countries in term of asset declaration?
I will give you an example from the Philippines. The Chief Justice in Philippine's Supreme Court was in the list of official that submitted asset declarations. He made his declaration. However, Ombudsman discovered that he had undisclosed accounts in foreign banks. After a lengthy investigation he was fired.
One of the important factors to have efficient asset declaration is to catch lies. This can only be done when media and independent bodies oversee the asset declarations. If an official is found telling lies (i.e. undisclosing) in his asset declaration, and s/he could not prove the source of his/her assets or income, which could reveal the sign of corruption and ethical breaches, then, that official should face prosecution and possible dismissal.
Another example is a high ranking official in an Eastern Europe country. He came to a meeting, wearing an expensive Rolex wrest watch. Reporters who covered this meeting took photos of him. A reporter spotted his luxurious watch, and questioned how could he afford to buy this luxury watch with his salary?
Reporters then checked his asset declaration, which was expected to include all assets over $5.000 US, to see if the watch was declared. They did not found this item in the list. This official was caught withholding information in the asset declaration.
In my home country, Costa Rica in Central America, asset declaration information is published transparently on the government website, and everyone can access and oversee the list.
- Do you have any further recommendation for Vietnam to enforce successfully the asset declaration and the declaration oversight?
The best international practices show that, the fewer officials in the list, the easier to check the accuracy of the declarations. The second important thing is that society, especially media, has the ability to access this information to check and oversee.
I think, the first thing Vietnam should do is to reduce the number of officials in the declaration list. Even ten percent of 600.000 officials who now are required to declare their assets are too many. I suggest taking only 1% of this number, and conducting randome check of these declarations.
