Fourth wind farm may be coming to Torrance County
Posted By National Wind Watch On October 23, 2019 @ 7:30 am In New Mexico | Comments Disabled
A New Mexico county is taking advantage of being one of the windiest parts of the state, and it's bringing in millions.
People in Torrance County are seeing windmill farms pop up all over the place, and they're about to see even more.
"I am starting to see them now along the roadways," resident Manuel Wood said. "You can see them that they are all out here."
Torrance County commissioners are expected to approve an industrial revenue bond next month to fund the county's fourth wind farm, La Joya 2, west of Encino.
"Because of our fantastic weather, the southwest is perfect for that," Wood said.
"There is a lot of wind here," Torrance County manager Wayne Johnson said. "We have got a lot of land and a lot of sunshine."
Torrance County is one of the windiest spots in the state. Johnson said that plus the county's smaller population makes it ideal for wind turbines. He said the farms will rake in an estimated combined total of around $2 million annually for Torrance County for decades to come.
"We have specific needs like fire and EMS," Johnson said. "This provides the county with another resource to fund those services that everybody across Torrance County needs."
Torrance County is not the only place in New Mexico experiencing a boom in wind energy. There are at least nine wind farms across eight counties including Cibola, Curry and Guadalupe.
"It's kind of becoming the renewable energy capital," Johnson said.
While the project will create hundreds of jobs during construction, Johnson said those will only be temporary.
"Once you get these things up and running, it is very few jobs," Johnson said. "One of the packages required them to have just three jobs created here."
Residents said they do not mind seeing more of these big, white blades spinning throughout the county.
"It will be great," Wood said. "A win all the way around."
The wind energy would be delivered to PNM's Clines Corners substation, then transmitted to tens of thousands of homes in New Mexico.

Guest speakers at the Friends AGM, attended by the Mayor of Rugby, Councillor Sally Bragg, spoke of the recent and on-going developments in Dementia Care at St Cross and also about the plans NHS Coventry and Rugby Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) have for the town.
Debbie Harris, Specialist Nurse mental Health, informed the audience that it is now recognised that approximately one in three people over the age of 65 will suffer from some form of Dementia and the training she provides to help staff identify the reasons why a patient might be confused and how to help patients and their families during their stay in hospital. Debbie thanked the Charity for their support in creating the Bluebell Lounge, where patients can relax in a non-clinical setting and the recently reported donation of the 'My life' software and computer which staff have reported has made a real difference for them and the patients. Click here to view the presentation that Debbie gave.
Juliet Hancox, Chief Operating Officer of the CCG, explained the role of the CCG and outlined some of the initiatives that are underway. In particular they are working with NHS England on the provision of a GP surgery in Brownsover and the future planning of GP surgeries bearing in mind the population expansion in the Borough. Juliet also mentioned that they are undertaking initiatives which aim to reduce the pressure on A&E through a review of Urgent Care centres in Rugby and Coventry with the aim of reducing hospital admissions. Other local initiatives are the introduction of a Family Support Worker at 4 local GP surgeries, in partnership with Warwickshire County Council. The CCG is also working with Warwickshire Community and Volunteer Action (WCAVA) on the Connect Well Social Prescribing project through which patients attending surgeries make contact with voluntary organisations which can help the patient adopt healthier life styles. - click here to view the presentation which Juliet gave, more information about Connect Well can be found in this document.
Willy Goldschmidt, incoming Chairman of the Charity presented the volunteers and supporters with a breakdown of the various ways in which the Appeal had achieved its success. Willy said "this was a tremendous team effort which built on the existing goodwill generated by the volunteers over the years as well as the close working relationship that the Charity has with the Hospital Management. What is great news is that the Charity is continuing to receive donations of 5p pieces and other individual donations. We have also heard that a group of supporters will be taking part in the Wolf Run and possibly other sponsored events and that both organisations that supported the Appeal are continuing to raise money for the Charity and new ones are joining in as well!" Click here to view the presentation that Willy gave.
David Eltringham, Chief Operating Officer of the UHCW Trust, thanked the Charity for their support over the past year and reported that the Friends Blood Taking Unit continues to achieve high standards of service for an increased volume of patients. He reported that work on a new car park has been completed and that plans are underway to expand the opening hours of the service and to introduce an option for patients to book appointments for blood taking which will be given priority during busy times. David also confirmed that plans to make some chemotherapy treatments available at St Cross were progressing well and that it is hoped the new service will be available by the end of the year.
Mike Rigby, Vice President of the Charity, chaired the proceedings and, together with the Mayor, Councillor Sally Bragg, presented Rita Holdsworth with a Life Membership certificate in recognition of her 15 years of service at the Tea Bar in the Out Patients Department. Rita has shared shifts with 5 other Tea Bar volunteers over the years and was thinking of resigning later this year. However she has promised to rethink this as she enjoys her time on the Tea Bar.
At the end of the meeting Willy Goldschmidt presented Heather Green, the retiring Chairperson, with a photograph taken when the Charity received the Queens Award for Voluntary Service as a memento of her 4 years of service as Chairperson of the Charity during which there had been a Royal visit to the hospital and the Friends had received two awards at the Pride of Rugby celebrations as well as commemorating the Diamond Jubilee of the Charity with the highly successful Appeal.

"We're not Zelena's minions, we're just in this for the money. They offered us bonuses if we brought back good info. Please, don't kill me," the woman begged.
Instinct told him that anyone using the humans from earlier would have wanted to make sure their distraction did as they were told, so Blacknail back traced the enemies path, and soon stumbled on a scent that didn't belong to them. Someone had indeed been shadowing the first group of humans as they'd approached Herad's territory.
The Patreon chapter will probably be late by a few hours today. I'm busy but I want to do one last edit before releasing it.
ooooo Herad better give him some more training for this at the very least. Blacknail needs to become a higher tier swordsman.
The training is ongoing in the background. It takes time to become good at something like that.
is this the same whats his face the bandit that was with khita?
No, that was before fang died, remember?
Well, that's one way to scout the base. Or it would have been, if it hadn't ended with them wasting a mole, losing a spy and having the information retrieved.
One step closer to being a quality Assassin.


(The far right is the US average, the middle is the NC average and the left is Brian Center) The staffing levels are still 2 stars, which is below average. The LPN hours are particularly low at 36 minutes compared to the state average of 52 minutes. To put this in perspective, the state average is 50% higher than the Brian Center. The CNA hours has increased slightly to 1 hour and 40 minutes, but this is still FAR below the state average of 2 hours and 25 minutes. Remember also that "average" doesn't mean "adequate". Many state nursing homes have staffing levels too low to provide good care.
The Quality Measures are two stars or below average like last year. The incidence of pressure sores, restraint use, incontinence and catheter use is still high. In particular, the incontinence level is 81%. Sometimes in nursing homes, they will put diapers on residents for staff convenience. It is easier for staff to use diapers than to get residents up and take them to the bathroom. The percentage of residents who lost weight is below 1%, which is excellent as the average in NC is 9%. This is encouraging as this likely means that CNAs are doing a good job feeding their residents. Residents had 0 depressive symptoms compared to the average of 9%. I hate to sound suspicious, but I find it hard to believe that a one hundred bed facility has no residents with depressive symptoms. I assume that the facility will argue this was controlled by proper medication usage, which is certainly possible. Finally, only 77% got a pneumonia vaccine which is surprising as it only takes a few minutes to administer.
During their last inspection, the Brian Center got ZERO deficiencies which is excellent. The average in NC is four. This is a fantastic survey, so they staff that they do have probably work very hard. On the other hand, a survey is only one or two days out of the year. I have also received sworn testimony in the past that the Brian Center somehow received advance notice of inspections. Staff would say "Ms. Brown is in the building" when the investigators entered the home, which was their code word for DHHS. While I don't have any personal knowledge whether or not this is true, this information came from more than one former Brian Center employee. So, you may want to take the survey process and results with a grain of salt.
The Brian Center of Lexington is a 106 bed facility in Lexington. For 2012, it is a two star overall facility, and staffing is only two stars.
Staffing- As for the staffing numbers, when looked at more closely the number of CNAs is low. The Brian Center has 1 hour and 35 minutes of CNA hours per resident. The NC average is 2 hours and 27 minutes of CNA time per resident. "Average" doesn't mean "adequate", it just means what other nursing homes are doing. Many of the nursing homes in NC are understaffed. So, just being average doesn't mean that it is enough. From what I can tell, according to Medicare's Nursing Home Compare, the Brian Center of Lexington has one of the lowest staffing levels of CNAs per resident in the state of North Carolina.
Quality Measures- The Quality Measures are mixed with the overall rating of three stars which is average. A few of the Quality Measures are fairly high such as the risk of pressure sores is high, the risk of low risk residents who lose control of their bowels and bladder is very high. The Brian Center reported 78.8% while the NC average is 50.8%. High rates of reported incontinence in residents can reflect the staff's inability to get to them in time. So, the staff begins to report "incontinence" and put diapers on residents who don't need them. If a resident can get up with some help and go to the bathroom, then the staff should do that. Staff aren't allowed to just use diapers. Diapers not only are undignified, they are also problematic. The residents may sit in urine and feces for periods of time. Such overuse of diapers and lack of changing can increase the incidence of pressure sores. I am not saying that is what is happening at the Brian Center. Instead, I am saying that the literature and the medicine show a correlation between diaper use and pressure sores.
Owners- The Brian Center has had multiple cases against them over the last ten years. Let me point out that the facility has also had multiple owners over the last ten years. So any comments that I am making are simply showing a trend for the facility itself and not the current owners. While the ownership has changed over the years, the staffing has not. Since I first looked at this nursing home years ago, it has always been under the North Carolina staffing averages and has usually been one of the worst staffed nursing homes.
Cases- My first case against the Brian Center of Lexington involved a resident in the facility back in 2002. She went into the facility for rehabilitation following knee replacement. Within two months, she lost almost twenty pounds. She became severely dehydrated and developed stage IV pressure sores. Finally, she had to be rushed to the hospital and had surgeries for almost a year to help her heal. The facility wouldn't even offer to pay the medical bills, $38,000, for her surgical repair. So, the case was tried in Davidson County and the jury returned a verdict of $480,000.
Since that time, I have filed two other cases against this same facility. One of the subsequent cases also involved a pressure sore. I don't want to go into too much detail regarding these other cases. However, you can see the pleadings in the courthouse which are public records.
After such a negative but truthful reporting, I must be fair and say that during the last state inspection, the Brian Center only got two deficiencies. This is almost half of the state average. Also, the two deficiencies were very minor and neither caused harm to a resident. This great survey and the average Quality Measures make me hopeful that things may be improving. However, with the currently low CNA staffing, something things like the continually low staffing, hasn't changed at this facility.
While I am a nursing home abuse attorney and very active in elder care groups, my goal is just to provide information on local nursing homes. If any staff or management of the Brian Center contact me and provide me with relevant information on the facility, I will post it. I will not post statements such as "we are working hard to help our seniors". That is meaningless. I will post something like "we have increased our LPN staffing numbers."


Injections can't help your diabetic cat if he is insulin resistant.
It's stressful enough keeping your kitty's diabetes under control when everything is going well. When his blood sugar levels get out of control it's a nightmare. If it seems like your cat is becoming resistant to insulin, it's important to work closely with your vet to figure out the reason.
When insulin injections don't control your diabetic cat's blood sugar levels, or it takes way too much insulin to keep blood sugar under control, your cat is insulin resistant. More specifically, if your cat needs more than one insulin unit for each pound of body weight to keep blood sugar within the ideal range, or if your kitty's blood sugar level stays above 300 gm/dl even after several insulin injections, he is insulin resistant.
Your vet will need to test your cat to find out whether he truly is insulin resistant, or if there's a different problem going on that's mimicking insulin resistance. A blood glucose curve will reveal any patterns in your cat's blood sugar levels. Your vet will take blood samples over a several hour period to track your kitty's reaction to insulin. It's possible that he might be getting too much insulin and the body is overreacting to the dose. Or, his body may not be absorbing the insulin the way it should. A glucose curve will reveal whether this is the problem or if it is true insulin resistance. Your vet will also consider whether any other medications that might interfere with insulin or dietary changes could be to blame.
A lot of times what appears to be insulin resistance is actually the result of an error made by the owner in administering the insulin. Injecting at the wrong site or in the wrong way keeps your cat's body from processing the insulin. If the insulin is not stored properly it might not be effective. Also, injecting the wrong amount can make it look like your cat is not responding to treatment. Adding treats or supplements to your cat's diet can also disrupt his blood sugar levels. Your vet will probably ask detailed questions about when and how you are giving injections and whether your cat is getting any treats or extra food. It's important to be completely honest so that your vet can figure out whether your cat really is insulin resistant.
Sometimes a change in the type of insulin is all that's needed to get your cat back on track. Other times, a change in diet or weight loss is necessary to help control your kitty's blood sugar levels. Certain infections, like a bladder infection, can also cause temporary insulin resistance. Your vet will need to treat the infection with antibiotics. Other illnesses, like pancreatitis, cancer, liver disease and hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism can also cause insulin resistance. Getting these diseases under control can help your cat process insulin.

The Song Keepers, the documentary feature about the Central Australian Aboriginal Women's Choir, will be screened in selected Australian cinemas from next month.
The magnificent voices of four generations of song women in the choir have taken them from singing in Lutheran churches at Ntaria (Hermannsburg), Utju (Areyonga) and Kaltukatjara (Docker River), to packed concert halls and churches in Europe. The Song Keepers documents that journey, as the choir takes hymns given to their ancestors by German missionaries back to Germany, now sung in their own Aboriginal languages.
Directed by award-winning filmmaker Naina Sen, the documentary premiered at last year's Melbourne International Film Festival and will be screening in Melbourne, Sydney, Hobart, Canberra and Brisbane movie houses from 19 April. It will be released in Adelaide and Alice Springs on 3 May. At the time of writing, dates were yet to be finalised for Perth, Darwin and New Zealand.
You can also follow any updates via the movie's Instagram account @thesongkeepers and on Facebook (search for The Song Keepers).

Michigan State's Miles Bridges, Jaren Jackson tight-lipped about NBA future
Cody Tucker
Lansing State Journal
EAST LANSING — Miles Bridges decided to return to Michigan State for his sophomore season because he wanted to hang banners and hoist trophies.
Freshman forward Jaren Jackson Jr. signed with the Spartans for the same reason.
Tuesday night, in front of a raucous capacity crowd inside Breslin Center, the MSU duo accomplished both, routing Illinois, 81-61, in their home finale to help give the Spartans a share of the Big Ten title. They can win the program's first outright Big Ten title since 2009 with a win over Wisconsin on Sunday.
Bridges paced the top-ranked Spartans with a game-high 19 points. Jackson finished with eight and added five more blocks to give him a perfect 100 for the season.
Tuesday night marked the final career home game for Lourawls "Tum Tum" Nairn, Ben Carter and Gavin Schilling. Sophomore guard Cassius Winston wanted the trio to start the game. They did. All three left the court to standing ovations, only stopping to lower themselves down to the floor and kiss the Spartan logo at center court.
But, after the music stopped, the stands cleared out and the white championship banner made its way to its final resting spot in the Breslin rafters, the focus turned to the Spartans' two humble stars and their immediate futures.
Was tonight the final game in this building for Bridges and Jackson, too?
Sitting in a black chair in front of his locker postgame, Bridges — wearing a white conference champions shirt and a matching green hat — answered numerous questions about his future.
And for a second, Bridges sounded like he was conceding what most think is coming.
"It was tough night for me. Every chapter I close is tough," he said as the microphones and recorders got closer to his face. "I mean, my last game here for the season. And they're the best fans in the nation, so I'm sad that I can't play here for the rest of the season."
Asked point-blank if this was it, Bridges shrugged.
"I don't know," he said. "Like I said, I am just happy that we could bring a win back for the seniors and win a Big Ten championship."
Jackson didn't tip his hand, either.
"I mean, obviously, everybody likes to think about it themselves, but personally, I was just thinking about (the seniors)," Jackson said, sitting just feet away from Bridges. "I wasn't really thinking about myself in any sort of way. Obviously, the time will come after the season where I have to think about it. But right now, I'm just happy for them."
Both Bridges and Jackson are considered lottery picks in the upcoming NBA draft by Sports Illustrated, CBS and others. Both are expected to land somewhere between the fifth and 12th picks in late June.

They have until April 22 to make their decision.
The MSU student section, "The Izzone," chanted "One more year" late in regulation as Bridges stepped up to the free-throw line. He grinned at the time, but said postgame he doesn't pay attention to those things.
MSU coach Tom Izzo joked with reporters during his press conference that "I was chanting, 'Thank God for this year.'"
The Spartans (27-3, 15-2) have three guaranteed games remaining, starting with Sunday's trip to Wisconsin. The Big Ten tournament in New York City comes next, followed by the opening round of the NCAA tournament.
Despite the consistent questions about the NBA, Bridges said his focus is already on the trip to Madison.
"That's why I came back," he said. "I knew we had a great chance. We just need to stay focused on the task at hand."
Izzo admitted Monday afternoon that he has thought about the possibility of losing both players after the season. He also said he never hears Bridges or Jackson talk about the NBA.
"That's unbelievable to me," Izzo said.
Following the senior day ceremony, Izzo grabbed the microphone. He praised the fans, his team and his seniors. He also told the fans that he hoped his team helped with the healing process in the community, adding that they play for the survivors of Larry Nassar's sexual abuse.
He saved his final words for Bridges.
Last April, Bridges stood in front of the Spartan statue in the middle of campus, stunning hundreds of fans — and his coach — when he made the decision to forgo the NBA Draft and return for his second season at MSU. The Flint native claimed he had "unfinished business."
Tuesday was the first step in validating that decision, Bridges said.
Izzo repaid Bridges for his loyalty and selflessness, imploring the sophomore to go to the scorer's table and pick up the big trophy with the silver basketball on top. He earned it, the coach said.
Jackson, a 6-foot-11 forward from Carmel, Indiana, smiled and laughed with teammates as a highlight video played on the Jumbotron. His right index finger was unmistakable. That happens when you have a 7-4 wingspan.
Jackson didn't have his biggest night offensively, but with less than eight minutes remaining in the first half and the game tied at 21, he showed why NBA scouts are drooling, driving the lane, spinning and finishing with a one-handed dunk while drawing a foul.
On Illinois' following trip down the court, Jackson swatted a shot attempt, adding to the program's already shattered blocks record (72). It was Jackson's 13th game with at least four blocks.
Izzo called Jackson a special player Tuesday night, but added that he is still a "work in progress that is getting better each week."
With his players remaining tight-lipped, Izzo said he is also toeing the company line — there is still plenty to accomplish this season. And Bridges and Jackson will be by his side.
For the next three games, at least.
"There's no question that they're both going to have some decisions to make," Izzo said Monday. "And, when I think of it that way, I feel good about it. I don't feel bad about it, I feel good. I feel like they have given me everything I could ask, and they've done it in a very unselfish (way) with some humility."

My mum has always stressed the importance of looking after your skin and she definitely practices what she preaches. She moisturises everyday and takes great care of her skin. For years i have tried to follow her example but I was always too lazy. For the 5th year in a row I made the resolution to take better care of my skin and so far I have kept it up. I have always used a face wash and occasionally used a toner but now I cleanse, tone and moisturise morning and night. I have combination to oily skin however it does get very dry in the winter. I also have quite sensitive skin so if you have a similar skin type these products may help you.
I don't have a go-to face wash, i usually go for which ever one is on offer at the time. I like to use daily scrubs as they exfoliate the face but are gentle enough for everyday use. I tend to use either a clearasil or a neutrogena face wash as they seem to work well with my skin.
This is something I have only just started using and it makes a difference. I love how soft and clean my skin feels after using it. I use a cotton pad to apply it. One tip I was taught is to apply it in upward circular motions as it apparently helps get make-up out of your pores. This is just from superdrug's simply pure range which is for sensitive skin, I can't remember the price but it wasn't expensive.
I love how using a toner can make your skin feel so fresh. I use a cotton pad to apply and I use this after my cleanser to take off the excess. I have had this toner for a while now as you can see from the picture. I love olay products, my mum has used a lot of their products over the years and has never complained.
I use a day cream and a night cream. The day cream has SPF 15 which is great for me as I have very pale and sensitive skin. The night cream is thicker than day cream so my skin is always super soft when I wake up. The creams are from superdrug's Vitamin E range and where 2 for £5 when I bought them, so they were a bargin. I have had them for a while now and i still have loads of product left.
And remember to take your make-up off!!
I use this to remove my eye make-up. I usually do it before I cleanse and tone. This is also from the simply pure range which is aimed at sensitive skin. It claims to be gentle however I have really sensitive eyes and I find that my eyes become irritated if i use a lot of product. I think I will get a cream based product next time in the hope that it is more gentle.

What can the dummy player do in Bridge?
We're learning to play Bridge from Gramma, who played the game a lot ~40 years ago but doesn't really remember the rules (or, at least, the reasons behind some rules and conventions).
One of the things she's adamant about is that the dummy sits the hand out completely, not to touch the cards at all once they're face up on the table. The rest of us newbies think this is kind of silly - while we know the dummy shouldn't be offering advice, we figure he could could at least handle the cards and play what the leader tells him to play, and (when there's no choice to be made, like when there's only 1 possible card to play), just do the mechanical stuff that requires no decision making.
What are the limitations placed on the dummy player? Are there etiquette rules about what he can and cannot do?
Mag RoaderMag Roader
From Laws of Contract Bridge 2014:
Law 42 – Dummy's Rights Dummy is entitled to give information as to fact or Law but may not initiate the discussion, and provided he has not forfeited his rights (see Law 43), he may also
(a) ask declarer (but not a defender), when he has failed to follow suit, whether he has a card of the suit led.
(b) try to prevent any irregularity **by declarer.
(c) draw attention to any irregularity, but only after play is concluded.
** Note: He may, for example, warn declarer against leading from the wrong hand.
Law 43 – Dummy's Limitations
Dummy may not participate in the play (except to play the cards of dummy's hand as directed by declarer) or make any comment on the bidding, play or score of the current deal. If he does so, Law 16 may apply. During play, dummy may not call attention to an irregularity once it has occurred.
Dummy forfeits the rights provided in (a), (b) and (c) of Law 42 if he exchanges hands with declarer, leaves his seat to watch declarer play or, on his own initiative, looks at the face of a card in either defender's hand. If, thereafter,
(a) he is the first to draw attention to a defender's irregularity, declarer may not enforce any penalty for the offense.
(b) he warns declarer not to lead from the wrong hand, (penalty) either defender may choose the hand from which declarer shall lead.
(c) he is the first to ask declarer if a play from declarer's hand constitutes a revoke, declarer must substitute a correct card if his play was a revoke, and (penalty) unless Law 64(d) applies, one trick is transferred to the defending side.
Contrary to the belief of many, rules are intended to keep friendly games friendly, by providing a common understanding of the game. The above are the rules for non-Tournament bridge in regards to Dummy's rights and limitations.
It sounds like Gramma is a wise old woman, who has encountered cheats in her life and wishes that her grandchildren and other relatives are never accused of such or believed to be sharp at cards. Follow her advice, and give her more credit for wisdom possibly beyond even her years.
Forget I was ever hereForget I was ever here
The etiquette for rubber bridge is not that for duplicate bridge, and it has remained pretty much the same for many years. It does specify that dummy should not touch the cards; when you table your hand, you should put them far enough down so that declarer can reach them without difficulty. Other non-obvious points are that the cards should not be shuffled by dealer or his partner, and that, unless otherwise agreed, you should always cut for partners.
Of course, you don't need to worry about these points while you're learninmg, and particularly not within the family. But you should be aware that the etiquette exists; you are expected to abide by it when playing with strangers (such as at a club), and particularly when you are playing for money.
If you are playing for money, buy a copy of the Laws; learn them well; and abide by them strictly. Money bridge is if anything even more serious than Tournament Bridge, and will attract players more than capable of holding their own in large tournaments. I've seen games up to $0.10 or even $0.20 per point, which is upwards of $40 or $80 for Game bid an made, never mind Slam, and with no nonsense about bending the rules was allowed when I kibitzed those games. – Forget I was ever here Aug 29 '15 at 4:12
Source - The 2007 Laws of Duplicate Bridge (pdf)
LAW 42: DUMMY'S RIGHTS
A. Absolute Rights
Dummy is entitled to give information, in the Director's presence, as to fact or law.
He may keep count of tricks won and lost.
He plays the cards of the dummy as declarer's agent as directed (see Law 45F if dummy suggests a play).
B. Qualified Rights
Dummy may exercise other rights subject to the limitations stated in Law 43:
Dummy may ask declarer (but not a defender) when he has failed to follow suit to a trick whether he has a card of the suit led.
He may try to prevent any irregularity by declarer.
He may draw attention to any irregularity, but only after play of the hand is concluded.
LAW 43: DUMMY'S LIMITATIONS
Except as Law 42 allows:
A. Limitations on Dummy
(a) Unless attention has been drawn to an irregularity by another player, dummy should not initiate a call for the Director during play.
(b) Dummy may not call attention to an irregularity during play.
(c) Dummy must not participate in the play, nor may he communicate anything about the play to declarer.
(a) Dummy may not exchange hands with declarer.
(b) Dummy may not leave his seat to watch declarer's play of the hand.
(c) Dummy may not, on his own initiative, look at the face of a card in either defender's hand.

This is the answer for serious players, but note that 'The Laws of Duplicate Bridge' do not apply to anyone playing Rubber Bridge, let alone somebody just learning the game. – Tim Lymington Oct 28 '13 at 10:24
The dummy can
give information about what has happened when the director is called
keep track of the tricks won or lost
play his cards according to what declarer says
when declarer doesn't follow a suit, he can ask him whether he has no cards in that suit.
The dummy cannot
call director
communicate with the declarer
see opponent's or declarer's cards

Arguably in casual games, actually learning and having fun is a lot more important than strict rules and etiquette. In this instance it sounds like there is a player who wants to stick to the rules, but in general, I think there's some room to bend them here. – Cascabel♦ Oct 28 '13 at 16:13
well, these are rules for tournaments. if you play rubber bridge, sure you can bend them (for example dummy can see declarers cards at the end of the auction) – Thanos Darkadakis Oct 28 '13 at 18:45
Yup, and the question you're answering isn't about tournaments, I don't think. – Cascabel♦ Oct 28 '13 at 18:51
No, the question isn't about tournaments. But in order to bend the official rules, you must know them first. – Thanos Darkadakis Oct 29 '13 at 3:32
The role of the dummy is to be "dumb" (Silent). That's why s/he is called the "dummy."
Basically, the dummy is not supposed to speak or act unless "spoken to." So dummy's powers are strictly limited, but include the following:
Must lay down hand after the right hand opponent leads (but not before).
May not further touch those cards except as directed by declarer. (Ideally, the dummy will have placed the cards in such a way that the declarer can reach them.) This includes one card, "no brainer" situations.
May call attention to a declarer error in progress (leading from the wrong hand, not following suit).
May not initiate a conversation about anything else, including opponents' errors, but may respond to questions asked by a tournament director (TD). (Dummy may not initiate the calling of the TD.)
May not leave his seat or walk around the room except in extreme emergency (fire alarm, and maybe bathroom breaks).
May not peek at declarer's or opponents' cards (until played).
Paraphrasing the actual rules results in a much less precise definition, and can at best only result in the type of acrimony that well written rules are carefully designed to prevent. Quoting your own poor paraphrasing in the attempt to seem like you are actually quoting well written rules is simply abhorrent. – Forget I was ever here Aug 29 '16 at 22:00

Otonabee Township fonds
Otonabee Township land document
Otonabee Township
Otonabee Township, Peterborough County, is bounded on the north by Douro Township, on the south by Rice Lake and the Otonabee River, on the west by the Otonabee River, and on the east by Asphodel Township. Otonabee township was first surveyed in 1819 and, in the same year, was settled on by George Kent. Captain Charles Rubidge also visited the township in 1819 and he returned with his family for permanent settlement in May 1820. Numerous other settlers also came to Otonabee in 1820 (approximately 23 men, some with families, some single). By 1825, 51 emigrant families, mainly from the south of Ireland, were added to the residents of Otonabee Township. These emigrants were some of the many emigrants led to Upper Canada by the Honourable Peter Robinson under the auspices of the British Government. In 1825, Dr. Gilchrist opened a grist mill and during the winter of 1829/1830, a general store was opened, both in the town of Keene. After the opening of the mill, there was an influx of settlers into the Otonabee region. By the 1861 census, the total population of Otonabee township was 4221, made up of the following nationalities: Irish (759), English (289), Scottish (412), American (37), Upper Canada (2684), Lower Canada (30), and other countries (10).


I know that the engineers at Google don't need to take suggestions from me, but here it is anyway: I think it would be nice to have a way to notify people of how many unread Gmail emails they have from the Google search homepage. Preferably how many unread and how many unread since they last logged in, since many people keep unread messages for a while.
It's simple, but I think it would be useful.
And yes, I know about the Gmail notifier, but this wouldn't require extra software and would be used by more people.
From Google's point of view, the benefit of this feature would be making its site even stickier (if that's possible). If every time you go do a search you are reminded to check your Gmail, you'll probably spend more time on Google-owned sites. And if you know that a quick way to check your mail is to go to your Google bookmark (home page in my browsers), you'll go there more often, and once there, chances are good that you'll click on Google News or do a search or whatever.
Last Friday, on October 24th, I asked Mélanie to marry me and she said yes, so we are now engaged. Obviously, am very happy about it!
An article I wrote yesterday, 5 Eco-Cars Faster than the Porsche 911, is currently featured on Yahoo's front page. It's sending so much traffic to our servers that we're taking a break and staying away from the backend.
Update: Even with heavy-duty caching done by Akamai, the traffic was still too much and killed our servers. One of our stats tool shows 949k pageviews today so far, and the majority of those all hit inside a 2-3 hours window. Preliminary reports are that one hard drive actually had a mechanical failure, and the site was inaccessible for a while (total pageviews would have been even higher otherwise).
Often while looking at random flora and fauna (including humans), I marvel at evolution's work. To think that all these intricate living systems have evolved without conscious design. The more I learn about biology, the more amazing it seems!
But then, I have to remember that I am an evolved creature myself, and my species has not evolved to be able to easily grasp the levels of complexity involved with the evolution of biological lifeforms (long time scales, interactions of complex systems, etc).
The primeval savanna where selection pressure formed my brain had no need for this; it's just a lucky side-effect that I'm now able to think about it at all, and in the grand scheme of things, my understanding is superficial and forced. I can't simply hold all the elements in my head and run simulations in the way that I can effortlessly know where a falling baseball is going to hit the ground. To my limited mind, on some level, it all seems almost impossibly complex, even if I know more abstractly how it happened. It's like trying to visualize large numbers. You know what a trillion is in the abstract, but you don't really grasp it.
But that fact says as much about me, about us, as about the phenomenon itself. A higher intelligence (an AI that could hold a whole planet's worth of quarks in its mind, for example) might not find life (or other complex phenomena) so special. Its reaction might be more like "duh".
a new study from MIT cognitive neuroscientists [has] shown that given the right setting, the human brain can record an amazing amount of information.
The new results suggest that visual capacity is several orders of magnitude higher than the older study implied. "If you encode a lot of detail for each object, you need a lot more space," Alvarez said.
Earlier studies had shown that people could remember a lot, but it was assumed that we did it by remembering abstract descriptions without too much details. In this study, people not only remembered thousands of images (success rate of around 90% after seeing each image for 3 seconds), but also many details about them (a kitchen cabinet with the door ajar, a glass of water 2/3 full, etc) and could pick the one they had seen before when also shown a slightly altered version.
According to the researchers, two things helped people perform better: Telling them to actively try to remember details, and showing them familiar objects (a remote control, not abstract art).
The former probably just further confirms our intuition that we remember better when we make a conscious effort, and the latter probably means that we don't make a completely new memory when we can reuse the invariable parts of already existing concepts. In other words, it seems like memory is modular, making it easier to put a pointer to an existing module for "chair" with extra information for "what type of chair", "what color", "seen from what angle", etc, than to create a whole new memory from scratch (for an abstract painting).
It's the same reason why it's much easier to remember what someone said in a language that you understand than in a language that you don't. In one instance, you just create modules pointing to already existing modules for words and concepts. This is further simplified because we have evolved brain-hardware to make processing language easier (the equivalent of a DSP chip in electronics?). In the case of a foreign language, you'd have to create many more modules to try to remember phonetically all the sounds you heard in the right order, a task for which we don't seem to have dedicated brain-hardware.
I'm just speculating based on my limited knowledge of cognitive science. I'm sure a lot more is known about the above, and I'm looking forward to reading about it in the neuroscience books in my "to read" pile.
These results establish a new bound on the size of human memory, and give credence to artificial intelligence approaches that depend primarily on a large memory capacity.
This certainly has big implications for those who try to create AI by modeling the human brain. Probably not as much for those who are attempting to design AI from scratch because they have a much larger possible design-space.
Google has launched a free and open source web browser, Google Chrome. I haven't had a chance to try it yet (Mac version should be coming soon), but if it works as advertised, it should be pretty good. It has many interesting features that I hope other browsers will copy quickly.
But what I found most interesting about the launch is the 39-page comic book that was released simultaneously. The words are by the Google engineers that worked on Chrome, and the images are by Scott McCloud. It does a very good job of explaining the browser's features and architecture to both a technical and non-technical public (though they're obviously targeting early adopters and not grandmas).
This might actually be one of Google Chrome's biggest innovations.
The comic book will no doubt be read by more people than standard product documentation, and those who read it have a lot more chances of understanding why Chrome's new features are worth checking out (who else is getting non-programmers to read about the fine points of HTML rendering engines and memory allocation?). By grabbing more early adopters, Google will probably generate more buzz and increase adoption rate. Even the non-tech traditional media will probably have more accurate stories about the browser, with better narratives and less PR-speak. Very smart. It's a bit like Apple's product demos, except that you don't even need to ask the media to gather in a big room. And more intangibly, it really helps the branding of this product by creating a good first impression.
Humans have evolved in a world with a certain amount of order. Our brains take advantage of it through built-in pattern recognition capabilities. That's why we can recognize trees that we've never seen before; we see them as part of a set, or class, of things. That's why once we've learned to read in a certain language, we can read text printed in hundreds, if not thousands, of different typefaces without having to re-learn the skill with each one of them. Etc.
But what if another form of intelligent life had evolved in a world with significantly less order than in our world? What if it had evolved in a world with significantly more order than our world? Could either of those possibilities happen in our universe – on a planet with very different conditions from ours, for example, or with life-forms based on different chemical elements than us, or with different sensorial inputs – or would that require an universe with different physical laws?
If other intelligent life-forms exist out there and they don't live in Earth-like conditions, there's no reason to think that the 'tuning' of their minds with regard to order is anything like ours. This could be one more thing, along with a possible difference in subjective time and many others, that could make communication difficult.
I'm not saying this is necessarily the case, but it's a nice thought experiment, and while it might not teach us a lot about hypothetical aliens, I think it can teach us something about ourselves by giving us a less human-centric perspective on intelligence.
Q: If we assume that both hands above came from an honest deal (truly random), which one are you more likely to get?

Chestnut season makes me experience Navin R Johnson levels of excitement.
According to the Swiss Forestry website, Wald Wissen, chestnuts were first brought from Turkey to Ticino by the Romans. Now, they are grown in the temperate Italian part of Switzerland, as well as in Valais, Chablais, Seeland, the Rheintal and near Lake Geneva.
Chestnuts remain an especially integral part of the cuisine in Ticino. The latest print issue of Migros Magazin mentions that in that region, to avoid high levels of absences, school children were given holidays when the nuts were ripe so that they could collect their fill.
These chestnuts, glazed with caramel, feature in the Wild plate . And they are excellent spooned over ice cream as well.
To prepare the chestnuts, cut a slit into the side and place on baking sheet (see photos above). Roast for about 25 minutes.
Remove the skins of the chestnuts (both the hard outer brown shell and the fluffy inner skin). It helps to crack them vertically and then peel away the shell. Some will break in half, just use the pieces.
The next step involves making caramel which can be quite dangerous, as sugar becomes extremely hot when cooked. During this stage, do not take your eyes off the pot and don't be afraid to take it off the heat if things are getting too dark.
Sprinkle the sugar over the bottom of a sturdy medium sized pan to form a thin, even layer. Turn the heat up to medium high and let the sugar melt. You will see the edges liquefy. Once the edges start to turn amber, give it a gentle stir with a wooden spoon.
Once all the sugar has melted and turned a nice caramel colour, take the pan off the heat and add the butter immediately to stop the sugar from cooking further: this will splutter, be careful.
Now add the chestnuts and give them a good stir to make sure they are fully covered with caramel.
Add the water very carefully, as this will splutter and steam again. Things will start to congeal, so return the pan to medium heat and stir until everything melts back together. Let this simmer for a few minutes, then it's ready.
Some recipes suggest initially boiling, rather than roasting the chestnuts. I was curious to see the difference, so I tested both methods. The roasting was much easier, as the skin was easier to peel. After boiling, the furry, inside skin seemed to stick more to the nut. Also, the flavour after roasting was better, and I found the dry texture to be superior as well.
If you don't want to roast and peel your own chestnuts, there are cooked, peeled and vacuum packed chestnuts available, which can easily be substituted.
The caramel here is is a dry caramel, where you add the sugar to the bottom of the pan and let it melt, no water needed. Butter is added after the sugar reaches the correct colour, to stop the cooking process. If you have never made a dry caramel, I suggest taking a look at David Lebovitz's step by step guide to the perfect caramel, which has great tips and photos.

SX-3228 is a sedative and hypnotic drug used in scientific research. It has similar effects to sedative-hypnotic benzodiazepine drugs, but is structurally distinct and so is classed as a nonbenzodiazepine hypnotic.
SX-3228 is a subtype-selective GABAA positive allosteric modulator acting primarily at the α1 subtype. It thus has similar effects to other α1-selective drugs such as zolpidem and zaleplon in animal studies. It only partly substitutes for ethanol, and is a strong sedative-hypnotic with only limited anxiolytic effects which appear only at doses that also produce significant sedation.

Amy Winehouse woke me up thirty minutes ago and already I was sufficiently reminded to get back to work. Sure, she collapsed, apparently out exhaustion, and is canceling some of her gigs, but nevertheless she woke me up with subtle reminders that, probably, me defragmenting the PC's hard drives might lead to the problem of terribly-staggered song introductions to disappear. Well, it hasn't.
And the news that got to me might seem positive to some extent. I just learned that our mock thesis defense has been moved to the twenty-fifth, and justifiably so, because two class cancellations meant nobody could submit a draft of the final project proposal. I just got Karla's contributions but I cannot make sense of it, thanks to my state of mind. I'm already silently flustered by the fact that my saved passwords have disappeared from the PC, and I've drudgingly gone through the process of reintroducing the two. Nevertheless I earlier sent both Steph and Karl a text message regarding our final video, and as expected (and annoyingly so) I got no reply from both. In a time when my mother is hating me for maxing out my postpaid plan, even if none of the phone calls I make are fluff, it doesn't make any sense. Just when I thought the world has started cooperating, it hasn't.
The point is, apparently, I'm not willing to worry for anyone, and ironically, I want them to do otherwise. Redg seemed "emotional", as he himself put it, when he started talking to me about jealousy and protectiveness. I guess he asked me at the worst time. I haven't snapped out of my sleep, and already I'm being asked about my friends? It, however, is the best answer I've given so far on a Sunday. "Luckily, I don't really have friends in the strictest sense of the word, so no."
He asked why I thought it was so. My simplest excuse: "long story."
I should be blaming it on human nature, the tendency to be so fickle with things, the tendency to never know what you really want. I guess it's the way we place a huge premium on reciprocity. Confucius had that one covered, actually. Don't do unto other what you don't want to be done unto you. Millions of clueless parents and teachers later, kids want to be friends with everybody else, enter high school with a convoluted sense of idealism, and then fall face first on the ground. Last night (which I'll elaborate on soon, I promise) when some of our friends from the GMG walked along Miguel Walk just as we were loading Naomi's drum set on her dad's van, I told Lau that the prom theme for whatever it is seemed to tell me something. She thought it was because Kizia and Sam were there. I actually didn't care about who exactly was there. All I wanted was to leave.
If you actually paid attention to the concept I shared in class then you'd probably figure out that my example of someone who had such contempt for people who seem to get everything undeservingly wasn't any hypothetical. I do have the right to wonder why the ones who get in to GMG get trained in what I think are basics, when the people who don't, but are willing to learn, are, well, refused entry at first blink. Eventually I think some of them are show-offs, or I just absolutely despise the fact that they're of a certain clique that's as dismissive as those who bullied me in high school. Blame my freshman high school year which, up to now, hasn't received any closure since everybody insists I already have. Or, blame the world's illicit love affair with reciprocity.
I can also probably wonder why my phone calls go nowhere. Yeah, since I'm the good guy they expect me to do their work? I only do the phone calls, and yes, I have already racked my brain for ideas that aren't as spectacular as what they should be, but at least I get the job done. Heck, you had a whim and changed it, and I agreed! Why won't you just cooperate this time? Why all the expectations? Why does it have to be damn unfair? Why does it have to be damn unfair to me?
For our final project in television production class, we were given the chance to stick with our present grouping or drift apart and get new ones again. I think everybody wants to stick with what we have - we're too busy to forge new working relationships again - and just when I already have settled in the thought that complacency can be good, then comes Naomi telling me that there are plans to revive their newscast group. I think of it now as another one of those dismissive cliques. I actually remember the phone calls I made in desperation to get a group, and I remember the complaints I made when I didn't like one and yet got forced to coexist. I know change is supposedly good, yet scary, yet good, yet scary, but what's the point of it? To force us more deserving ones out?
Well, isn't that dark comedy material? You want them to but they don't. You want them to but you don't. You want them to but they don't give you a chance. You want them to but they set their own expectations and force you to do it. If only I could tell the world about everything - but we've got reputations to protect. I'm not Stephen Fry who got to talk about his being a manic depressive, who can talk endlessly about what never gets seen and actually get sympathy for it. I may be a fan of your comedy, but in the real world, sir, nobody gets support. Maybe being admired for not having pretensions, as Steph said in my documentary rushes, is a good thing, but they eventually get you alienated, shunned, pushed away, forgotten, and yes, that's unfair.
So why am I still asking for anyone out there, when actually I'm much worse than them? Yes, I'm guilty of being dismissive, of wishing John wasn't openly wishing for a thesis partner even if he knows nobody would want to be with him, of being angry at some of my sort-of-friends because they're too busy being the best that they are and leaving me behind, of being irritated at Arlene for dropping the family storyline when I refused to include a baby in our newscast, of calling Karl up when he won't even give a reply, of expecting that things would fall in place - but we were taught that this happens. So it's all your fault. All yours, damn it.
Justifiably so, I got tagged. I don't really deserve to ask for anyone to care, because I don't anyway. Well, what's my plea amidst six billion others? I can actually hear you laugh on the other end of the line. I know your happy I'm experiencing what you supposedly feel under my wretched inattentiveness, but that's just you being dismissive. Or excessively patronizing, pretending you're understanding everything, but that's just you being dismissive all the more. I have actually ruined my reputation. Why don't you go ruin yours?
Or it's just me. Whatever the case maybe, I'd pray to end it sooner.
