2014 MLB HALL of FaME #HOF
The SouthPaw from Massachusetts
The Big Hurt
Cooperstown, New York. This is the holy ground of the baseball world. In this quiet town lies the pantheon of baseball greatness that everybody that steps onto the diamond dreams of entering: The Baseball Hall of Fame.
Ryan Fox - @Spider_Fox87
Last year in 2013, in a controversial move, nobody got the necessary 75% vote mark to get into the Hall of Fame. This was due to a majority of the Baseball Writers Association of America (BWAA) making a stance against many of the steroid users on the ballot (i.e. Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa). However in 2014, the BWAA was able to redeem themselves. This time around we have 6 people that got voted into the Hall of Fame. This includes 2 pitchers from an era where the Jewel of the South reigned supreme in the East, a big bat, and 3 of the greatest managers our young generation has seen.
First we look at pitcher Greg Maddux. From 1986 to 2008, Greg Maddux played in primarily in the National League. He had two stints with the Chicago Cubs, the team that originally drafted him in 1986 to 1992 and then from 2004-2006, a more than memorable career with the Atlanta Braves from 1993 to 2003, before having alternate stops between the Los Angeles Dodgers (2006, 2008) and the San Diego Padres (2007-2008). Known as 'The Professor' and 'Mad Dog', Maddux was arguably the most dominating National League pitcher during the 'Steroid Era' of baseball. Just his stats during his time with the Atlanta Braves was Hall of Fame worthy. In the 363 games he played and started in with the Braves, Maddux composed a record of 194-88 with an ERA of 2.62. This includes 61 complete games, 21 of those being shutouts. He also struck out 1,828 batters and walked only 383 in 2,526.2 innings. Because of his performance, Maddux won the NL Cy Young in four consecutive years (1992-1995), being one of two pitchers for that to ever happen to. Not to mention that his 176 wins during the 1990s is the most of that decade.
Overall, Maddux played in 23 years of baseball. His lifetime record was 355-227 in 740 starts. He pitched in 5,008.1 innings while striking out batters 3,371 times while walking them just 999 times. Defensively, he was near perfect. In 1,793 defensive chances, Maddux had 546 putouts and 1194 assists while committing only 53 errors. Aside from winning 4 consecutive Cy Youngs, Maddux was an 8x All-Star, an 18x Gold Glove winner, 4x NL ERA champion, a 3x NL Wins Champion, and he won a World Series with the '95 Braves.
Joining Maddux in the Hall of Fame is his former Atlanta Braves teammate and also former New York Mets pitcher, Tom Glavine. Like Maddux, Glavine's best years came with the Atlanta Braves. He played with them from 1987-2002 and then in 2008. In between, the southpaw from Massachusetts had a stint with the New York Mets from 2003-2007. With the Braves, Glavine played in 518 games and started all of them. He composed a record of 244-147 with an ERA of 3.41, striking out 2,091 batters and walking 1,177 in 3,408 innings. He also won 20 games 5 times (1991-93, 1998, 2000), as well as appearing in 8 of his 10 All-Star appearances in a Braves uniform. Glavine won 2 NL Cy Young awards with the Braves (1991, 1998) and won 164 games during the 90s, second only to Maddux for most wins that decade. Not to mention he has a World Series championship from 1995 where he won World Series MVP as well as the Babe Ruth Award for best post season that year. (During that run, he pitch in 4 games and started all of them, compiling a 2-0 record with 19 strikeouts, 9 walks, and an ERA of 1.61)
Glavine's overall numbers with the Braves and Mets was that he appeared in 682 games and started all of them. His record was 305-203 with a career ERA of 3.54. He struck out 2,607 batters while walking 1,500 even. Interestingly enough, Glavine won 4 Silver Slugger Awards (1991, 1995-96, 1998). His 4 Silver Slugger awards are 2nd all-time in pitchers behind former MLB pitcher Mike Hampton's 5. Glavine's career .186 batting average is considered to be one of the best among modern day pitcher's batting average.
In a surprise twist, the voters decided to vote in a 'Designated Hitter' to Cooperstown. Unfortunately it wasn't former Seattle Mariners DH/3B Edgar Martinez. Rather it was the 'Big Hurt' from the south side of Chicago, Frank Thomas, that got in. I know there will be some people who will cry foul but when you look at the 'Big Hurt's' stats, you can see why he got the nod over Martinez.
From 1990-2005, Frank Thomas played with the Chicago White Sox. Though he was listed as a first baseman, Thomas mostly played in the DH role. In the 16 years he was with the White Sox, Thomas played in 1,959 games. He batted an average of .307 (2,136-for-6,956), scored 1,327 runs, had 448 HRs, 1,465 RBIs, was walked 1,466 times, collected 3,949 total bases, had an OBP of .427, slugging percentage of .568, and an OPS of .995. Mind you, except for the OPS, all those are Chicago White Sox franchise records. Thomas had 5 All-Star appearances (1993-97), 4 Silver Slugger Awards (1991, 1993-94, 2000), 2 AL MVPs (1993-1994), won the 1997 AL Batting Title (.347), the 2000 AL Comeback Player of the Year (.328 BA with 43 HR, 143 RBIs, scored 115 runs, OBP of .436, slugging of .625, and OPS of 1.061).
After leaving the White Sox, Thomas bounced between the Oakland Athletics and Toronto Blue Jays from 2006-08. His total career numbers round out to a lifetime batting average of .301 (2,468-for-8,199), scored 1,494 runs, had 521 HRs, 1,704 RBIs, was walked 1,667 times, collected 4,550 total bases, had an OBP of .419, slugging percentage of .555, and an OPS of .974.
But with every good story of those getting into the Hall of Fame, there's the other side of the coin. Jack Morris, a former MLB pitcher from 1977-94 who won 254 games, 4 World Series and had 5 All-Star appearances, didn't get in on his 15th and final try. Craig Biggio, a 7-time All-Star, 4-time Gold Glove Winner, and 5-time Silver Slugger with the Houston Astros from 1998-2007, missed the qualifying vote by 0.2%. (Biggio had 74.8% of the votes). Then of course you got your Steroid Era users (Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Roger Clemens) as well as the question mark players (Mike Piazza, Curt Schilling, Jeff Bagwell) and just others who you wonder if they'll even make it to the entrance. (Armando Benitez anybody?)
Every year, when people get voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, there are always going to be some people who are going to question whether or not Player A deserves entry over Player B. However this time around, the BWAA got it right with their entries. Next year we will be back to square one of who deserves to get in, who doesn't, and which baseball writer is going to get on their soapbox and make a 'statement' against the steroid users. The participants may change but the song will always stay the same.

Braves drop series opener
Steve Pettibone
Mar 14, 2013 • March 14, 2013 • 2 minute read
CORNWALL - The Brockville Braves played 40 minutes of solid playoff hockey on Thursday night.
Unfortunately for the CCHL Jr. A team, some defensive miscues in the second period led to a 1-0 lead turning into a 3-1 deficit on their way to a 5-2 opening playoff game loss to the Colts.
With the defeat, the Braves trail the best-of-seven first round series 1-0.
But they won't have to wait long to get another crack at the Colts, with game two going tonight at the Memorial Centre.
Braves head coach and general manager Jason Hawkins was generally pleased with his team's play Thursday, noting they outshot and outchanced the Colts in the first and third periods.
"Our whole lineup played hard," he said. "Everyone was battling and doing all the little things."
However, a few lapses in the second period would prove costly.
The coach said his team "got away from our game" during the second-period spell in which Colts forward Lawson MacDonald scored at 14:44 and 17:40 to give Cornwall a 3-1 lead.
Brockville came out strong off the opening faceoff in the game, scoring 53 seconds in on a marker by defenceman Brandon Cole.
The remainder of the first frame would be scoreless, with the Braves outshooting the Colts 15-10 in the period.
But the Colts' three second-period goals would leave the Braves in a hole in the third that they couldn't climb out of, despite having what Hawkins said were "three or four glorious chances" to score.
The Braves, as they have all season, had to deal with some adversity, as starting goaltender Andrew Pikul was unable to make the trip due to a bout of the flu.
Hawkins said Pikul is at the moment day-to-day and it wasn't known as of Thursday night whether he will be available for tonight's game.
In Pikul's absence, Matthew Jenkins got the start, backed up by Brockville Tikis starter Nathan Peters.
Hawkins said Jenkins was solid throughout the game. The Newfoundland native made 32 saves in the loss.
"Jenk did a very good job for us in there," said Hawkins.
The team won't be dwelling on the loss, said Hawkins, given how well the coaching staff believes they played.
One game does not a series make, he noted.
"That's why it's a seven-game series," he said.
Hawkins said the game was also a valuable learning experience for some of the team's younger players, for whom this is the first time playing a Jr. A playoff series.
"I think it was important for them to get into their first game and just see what it's about," he said.
Game two goes tonight at the Memorial Centre at 7:30 p.m., with the third game back in Cornwall on Sunday night at 7 p.m.

The JEOL 100CX II TEM is a traditional transmission electron microscope (TEM) with a tungsten filament. The tungsten electron source is heated to a high temperature, and the energized electrons escape the tungsten metal, are concentrated into a beam, and accelerated down the length of the TEM column.
As the electrons spiral down the column, they are focused by the magnetic field of the electromagnetic lenses and sent through the thin, 100 nm, sample. The magnified image of the specimen is formed on the fluorescent screen by the post-sample electromagnetic lenses of the column. This TEM is equipped with a side-entry goniometer and a side-mount digital camera.
This TEM is used to obtain routine-magnification transmitted electron images of materials, polymers and biological samples.

Sinbad's Trick
26th January 2017 by Sedley
"What an absurd story!" declared the Sultan. "Why, even my victims stop crying when they know it's time to meet their Maker."
Scheherazade did not comment. "Sinbad had an idea," she went on.
"Old man," he said, untying the piece of cloth from around his waist, "put on this blind."
The old man looked at him through his tears.
"Is this one of your tricks?"
"I promise<" said Sinbad, "I will do you no harm."
Sinbad led the old man through the streets, past the basket seller and the candle stick maker. When they saw the old man with the blind drenched in tears, they did not dare approach.
"Have mercy on your souls!" cried Sinbad. "Give food for the poor fakir!"
People started dropping food into Sinbad's hands.
When they arrived home, he called to his mother.
"Mama, I am back. Did you miss me?"
"Did you bring food?" she replied.
"I have brought better than that," said Sinbad. "I have brought someone to chop the onions."
The old man bowed humbly.
"I am at your service, Madam."
While the old man chopped the onions, Sinbad's mother prepared the food for them to eat.
"Why, old man," she said, "this curry is all the sweeter for your attention. But my son is right. You should not be sad with a gift such as this. What has befallen your life to reduce you to tears?"
The old man bowed his head.
"I will tell you my story," he began. "Though little good it will do to alleviate my suffering."

The Tears That Never Dry
2nd January 2017 by Sedley
"Catch me if you can!"
The boy ran through the busy street. He dodged the basket weaver and knocked over the candle stick maker's display. They chased him down an alley. He lost them in a fit of pique and sat down next to an old man who was in tears.
The boy looked up at the old man and pulled a face.
The old man ignored him.
"Old man," he said, "why do you cry?"
"These tears do not go away," said the old man. "They never dry."
"How can tears never dry? Do you cook with onions? – Why my mother says all you need to do is eat a piece of bread when you chop them."
"These tears cannot be stopped by eating bread," said the old man. "These tears are the tears that never dry."
The boy whose name was Sinbad was silent, perplexed by the words of the old man. What could they mean? – He was a queer old fish, but what did he care?
He skipped over to the candle-stick maker and – just for fun - knocked over his display.
"Catch me, if you can!"
"Come back here!" cried the candlestick maker.
The whole merry dance began again. The candlestick maker shook his fist; the basket weaver stopped short of breath.
Finally, Sinbad made his way back to the old man and sat down beside him. Tears were still streaming down the old man's face.

(After Pliny)
There were two brothers both called Percy. Men said they were perhaps not so close, but rather men who spoke few words who were indeed close. The truth of this was demonstrated when the elder Percy was taken ill.
At death's door he called in his wife and servants. "Send for my brother," he told them, "and tell him to make ready the funeral arrangements."
Percy fell into unconsciousness, but just when it was thought he was dead, he awoke and called again to his wife and servants.
"I have just come from my brother's house," he said, "where he told me to make ready the funeral arrangements for him."
When he felt stronger, they all went to his younger brother's house and found that it was as Percy dreamed.
Then Percy called to his brother's daughter. "Go to the bottom of the garden," he said. "There you will find a tree with a knot. At the foot of the tree my brother has left his heart."
It was as he said. At the foot of the tree was buried a strong box and in the strong box was his brother's fortune.
On hearing this story, retold by Scheherazade, the Sultan said nothing.
The following day, he sent for the Vizier.
"Go to my brother's house," he said, "and bring him this gift."
He commanded his servants to accompany the Vizier with a strong-box of money.
In this way, it is said, the Sultan was reconciled with his brother after twenty years of silent recrimination.
The Tell Tale Heart
(Homage to E.A.P.)
The old man shivered in his socks.
"Who's there?" he said. "Ah, it must be the wind in the chimney. Or a mouse crossing the floor."
Either that, or the beating of your own hideous heart, old man.
Poe stood silently in the darkness. Although, notionally, he was fond of the old man and had, for years, tolerated his faults, he was seized with an impulse to put him out of his misery.
Without further ado, he brought the lantern down on top of the old man's head. He turned over the bed and sat down smiling and chuckling to himself. "That did it!" he said. "I stopped it in its tracks, just like a clock."
Then he took up the planks in the floorboard and deposited the body between the scantlings, taking extra care not to leave a stain.
There was a knock at the front door.
It was two policemen in windbreakers.
"If you are looking for the old man," Poe said, "he has gone to the country."
"A neighbour heard a scream."
"Please, come in," he said. "By all means, search the house."
In fact, Poe was so confident he brought them into the old man's room and had them sit, with a cup of tea, at the very spot where the body lay.
When he heard the sound, it was a low, dull, quick sound, like the sound a watch makes when enveloped in cotton.
The noise steadily increased.
Poe could bear it no more.
"Villains!" he shrieked. "I admit the deed! Tear up the planks!"
The policemen were amazed, but Poe could no longer bear the sound of the old man's tell-tale heart.

Butt naked
But for their wide shield
And plumed helm
Behold the athletes
With their greaved shin
And their bodies all sinew
From no surgery or pin
Behold the runners
In lightning haste post
To the cheers of all Olympus host
Did they run as Johnson knew
And Bolt still can?
Seekers beyond their light,
All thigh and thrust
And that unspoken lust
For something other
Not to be found
In the grasp of another
Or glory of polis
Did they run as Johnson might

For the three successive nights Monsur awoke from the same dream. "I'm in this palace," he told his wife, "I meet a man dressed as a magician. Just as I wake up, I hear a voice telling me to go to Vienna to seek my fortune."
"Well," said Nadia, "what's stopping you going there? I'll book the flight."
"By the way," she said, scrolling down her tablet, "why don't you go and visit a psychiatrist?"
"I'm not crazy," said Monsur.
"I never said you were. But maybe he will help you interpret your dream."
Monsur took the plane to Vienna and fell asleep in his hotel room after eating a slice of Sachertorte. The following day, when he went to see the well-known Viennese doctor, he told him his dream that he had had, as regular as clockwork, the night before.
The psychiatrist laughed.
"Why," he said, "your dream is nonsense. In fact, all dreams are quite meaningless."
The psychiatrist began to tell Monsur his own dream.
"Three times," he said, "I have dreamt of house in London with a garden. In the garden, there is a bench by a wall. By the bench there is a bed of sweet peas. Where the sweet peas grow, the dream tells me is my fortune. Needless to say, I pay absolutely no attention to it."
Monsur returned home to London.
He went out into the garden and over to the bench by the wall where the sweet peas grew and he began to dig.
There he found it, a small box with a jewel. He took the box with the jewel and gave it his wife.
"Why," said Nadia. "You didn't need a psychiatrist to tell you that your fortune lies here with me at home."

New museum to open in Charlie Chaplin's Switzerland home
By Brian E. Clark
March 4, 2016 8 AM PT
Charlie Chaplin fans, you may want to buy a ticket to Switzerland.
The Modern Times Museum, also known as Chaplin's World, honoring "The Great Dictator" and "Modern Times" creator is slated to open April 15.
The long-awaited museum is located in Chaplin's renovated mansion, the Manoir de Ban, in the town of Corsier-sur-Vevey on the north shore of Lake Geneva, about 10 miles east of Lausanne.
The museum is dedicated to the life and times of the great filmmaker and actor who moved to Switzerland in 1957 near the end of the Communist witch hunts of the McCarthy era. (He was accused of being a Communist sympathizer.)
March 8, 5 p.m.: An earlier version of this post wrongly said Charlie Chaplin was buried on the grounds of his former home. He is buried nearby.
Chaplin lived in the mansion — which is surrounded by 34 acres of gardens, pathways and terraces with panoramic views of Lake Geneva and the Alps — for the last two decades of his life. In this home, he wrote books, composed musical scores and gardened with his fourth wife, Oona, and their children.
Chaplin died in 1977 at age 88. After his death, the mansion fell into disrepair.
More than a decade in the making, the museum features more than 32,000 square feet of interactive exhibition space, including a movie theater, outdoor stage, additional buildings with re-creations of Chaplin's film sets and a film school.
Renovation of the mansion for the museum cost more than $45 million, according to published reports. Info: Modern Times Museum's website.
Close to the Chaplin Museum, the Moderntimes Hotel recently opened too. Set above the nearby city of Vevey, the hotel has 138 rooms and suites, a fitness room and a bar-lounge. (A quick online check shows rooms starting at $484 a night in mid-April.)
Shuttle buses will be available to the museum and to Vevey. Info: Moderntimes Hotel

I completed my doctoral studies under Professor John Dyson at the University of Manchester, following him to the University of Leeds. A new model for one of the earliest manifestations of the birth of the most massive stars was developed. Upon graduation I moved back to the Jodrell Bank Observatory at the University of Manchester as a postdoctoral fellow with Professor John Meaburn. Using instruments installed on the Anglo- Australian Telescope, led to the discovery of highly explosive outbursts in objects known as Planetary Nebula, which had previously been thought to evolve in a steady fashion. This was followed by the discovery of evidence for sequential, nested supernova explosions in two peculiar objects, the Pencil Nebula and the Honeycomb Nebula.
Moving on to work with Professor Jonathan Rawlings, at University College London I broadened my research into the formation of sun-like stars and in collaboration with Dr Eric Keto in Harvard, we employed a state of the art 3D radiative transfer code to decode the complex line appearance of star forming regions. A more advanced code than previously used, coupled with observations from the James Clark Maxwell Telescope in Hawaii led to the realisation that complex appearance of these regions can be explained by a simple underlying geometry, viewed from different angles. An IRCSET postdoctoral fellowship at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (where I remain a Research Associate) was followed by a faculty appointment at NUIG in 2004.
My research programmes now bring together the themes of star formation and star destruction and I have studied how low mass star formation can proceed in the vicinity of violent massive stars. A recently new research theme, inspired by the widespread discovery of exoplanets, is to investigate the effects of the destruction of planets on the evolution of sun-like stars as they evolve to form (coincidentally, and confusingly misnamed!) planetary nebulae, the shaping of which are not understood. This work has been well supported by grants for PhD students and a postdoctoral researcher.
We use observational, theoretical and numerical techniques to observe and model the star formation process.
We also study star destruction processes through phenomena such as planetary nebulae and supernova remnants.

A university is a place of both teaching and research and I believe the best university teaching takes the student to the boundaries of current knowledge and then, at advanced undergraduate and postgraduate level, into research itself. In learning to think like a physicist, I believe a student must build up a body of basic knowledge of maths, physics and elements from other physical sciences; become practised and skilled at conducting experiments and analysing the results; and develop robust problem solving approaches and strategies. The combination of these techniques and knowledge leads to the 'physical intuition' that is perhaps the most valuable skill that a physicist possesses: the ability to capture the key elements of complex phenomena or systems and describe them mathematically.

Marc Jacobs' Inclusive SS16 Campaign
Mar 17, 2016 / Blog
Marc Jacobs captures the spirit of Instagram and his archive of influencers in his indulgently diverse SS'16 campaign.
Marc Jacobs SS16 Campaign: Lana Wachowski
Marc Jacobs is not just a collector of inspirational characters. but a one man portal for the New York Scene. Most recently, inviting Lady Gaga to his AW'16 runway, his archive of influencers is wide spread, as witnessed in his indulgently diverse SS'16 campaign. When Marc Jacobs finally arrived on Instagram this time last year and recognised it's full potential for direct communication to his following, it felt like the last piece of the puzzle for the brand, the man – and our feeds. Despite being a late adopter, Jacobs has seen the light and embraced Instagram tightly. The Marc Jacobs SS16 campaign was celebratory of everything Instagram can be, square format obviously, but also inclusive, collective, collaborative and liberating.
Following on from a heavy weight A/W '15 line up with the likes of Cher, Willow Smith and Winona Ryder, Jacobs has assembled another formidable crew. Delving into his magical toy box of fabulous famous friends, he has come out with his hands brimming with multi-ethnicity, intergenerational subculture stars. Shot by David Sims, icons like Bette Midler, Lana Wachowski, Beth Ditto, drag star Milk, Juliette Lewis, were shot in their own right without over pandering to the camera. Almost as if Jacobs had squeezed all of his besties into a photobooth for the good times. Katie Grand and David Sims were the creative team behind the campaign, that brought the images to life with an amalgamation of British coolness and Americana overload. Red, White and Blue.
Marc Jacobs created a unique consumer facing campaign, via Instagram and social media, that reflected not only his inspiration but also his broadening audience. Jacobs told the Business of Fashion "The campaign was about the people that inspire us, I didn't want to let go of that". This undiluted translation of inspiration to fashion is the x-factor in the campaign, and the reason why it is so significant. So often, inspirational icons are referenced but the front facing images and campaigns fail to show anything but models. This campaign had more diversity in it's little finger than many show in a whole hand. Creativity is inspired by the spectrums of life and the different forms they take, but more often than not, the outcome transforms into single serving portions.
Congratulations to Marc and his creative team because this is what diversity in fashion looks like.

Cooking in a group is always much more fun! Whether you are celebrating something special or are just looking for an activity with friends, relatives, or co-workers, consider hosting a cooking party. Gather up a group, pick a theme featuring easy-to-share dishes, and let me walk you all through making the food items.
To the left, witness five wildy different tacos made by a small group of friends at a cooking party hosted by me. The taco shells were formed in the oven, to create a shape that holds the fixings well. This was definitely a fun party, and everyone got a taste of each type of taco. I have also led many flatbread-making parties that were equally enjoyable and entertaining.
Yes, I actually hosted the wine tasting in this picture on the right with 50+ bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon! I did not cook the food, but I did create the wine-friendly menu and conduct the tasting for a local restaurant. Food and wine pairing "education" is immensely fun and when the combination is done right, the two taste better together than individually. I am available to help with any type of wine-related tasting party, whether it be a private or public event. Cheers!

Looking back on my two years in the city, there are a few things I wish I'd done a bit differently, as they would have made my transition to the UK all the smoother. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, sometimes.
Here are some of the mistakes I made when I moved to the UK.
1. I didn't research all the red tape I'd have to navigate before arriving in the country
It's far easier to settle in my home country of Australia than it is in the UK.
I know this because I'm watching my boyfriend organize himself in Oz. He entered the bank with only his passport the other day and walked out with an account. That same process took me around three weeks in England. I got stuck in a vicious cycle of having to prove where I lived, without any means of obtaining proof of address!
British bureaucracy is, well, difficult to navigate. I never quite anticipated just how frustrating it could be.
Through several cases of trial and error, I managed to get everything organized in the end. I just wish I'd done some solid research online in advance, so I knew what to expect when I first arrived in London.
Hitting the ground running would have been much nicer than struggling through.
2. I didn't account for how much the exchange rate would hurt my savings
There's no real set figure for how much you need to move overseas. Some people I know have moved over with thousands of dollars in the bank. Others have lived on the scent of an oily rag.
I moved over with enough money to support myself for around four months in Sydney if I were particularly frugal with my money. Unfortunately, I hadn't accounted for the strength of the pound against the Aussie dollar, or the comparison of the cost of living in London to Sydney (both upsettingly expensive, but in different ways).
It then took me around six weeks to find a job and then ANOTHER six weeks to get paid (hooray for monthly pay!). I had around $50 left in my savings when my British bank account had its first top up. I was so happy that day that I almost wept.
3. I traveled too much the first year there
I know, cry me a river, right? Yet, when the going got tough in the UK, the appeal to hop on a plane/train or into an automobile and run away to Europe was far too hard to resist.
Half of it was due to the appeal of living so close to Europe, after spending most of my life stuck in the middle of nowhere. I could go to France for the weekend! Jet over the pond to New York! Make as many trips as I desired to Iceland! Oh, the novelty just wouldn't wear off.
Yet, between traveling and working to fund said travels, I managed to burn myself out completely. Whoops.
4. I didn't consider living anywhere other than London
I am crazy in like with London but found it hard to love the place. It's a great city to spend time in, and although I enjoyed living there, there were many moments where I wondered if it truly was the home for me.
On the flip side, there are plenty of other places around the UK that I dug – Brighton, Bristol, and Edinburgh to name a few.
As someone who is a fan of smaller cities, particularly ones that have an easily accessible gateway to nearby nature, I sometimes wonder if I would've felt more comfortable living somewhere other than London.
Yet at the time of moving there, it was an option that just didn't cross my mind.
5. I didn't make enough of an effort to find friends outside of work
Expat life can be pretty lonely – it's imperative to put effort into finding new friends, from the get-go.
I was lucky enough to know already a handful of people living in London when I first moved there.
People come and go, and after a while, my core group of friends consisted mostly of people I worked with.
Although they were a fantastic group of folk, we were all rostered on shifts. This made socializing outside of work near impossible.
No joke – a group of us tried to organize a book club earlier this year. It took us four months to successfully schedule a date where we could all meet up.
I wish I'd worked harder to find friends outside of work earlier. Here are some of the ways I would have gone about doing such a thing.

6. I treated it like too much of a home
Once again, sounds like a bit of a non-issue, yes?
London eventually started feeling a lot like home. This was not necessarily a bad thing.
It was around this time that it became less imperative to explore the city at every given opportunity. Some days were just better off spent sitting around in my pajamas, and not visiting the Kew Gardens or the National Portrait Gallery (these were both things I wanted to do, but somehow never managed to never get around to, boo).
Oh well. Just gives me more to see when I go back to visit!

This is actually very helpful as my husband and I have started considering leaving the states for many reasons. We already realized it would be much easier to have a job in place so I've started looking at music education positions around the world. We actually would love to live in Ireland, but know that immigrating there is tough with their restrictions. So we have considered elsewhere in the UK and possibly France or Germany. Any suggestions on how to search for transition/immigration information to these areas besides what you mentioned in your blog?
LC Haughey says
I would look on your own government's website for information on moving overseas, or the website of whichever country you choose to immigrate to. Expat forums could also be very helpful, as it would connect you with people who are in the same situation. Good luck!
Thank you! I couldn't agree more.
skyeclass says
This is so spot on! I chose to make Edinburgh my home base last year, and after six months this year I've given up until I can gain some more funds. In those six months I've spent more than half the time on the road, and completely used up the last of my savings, while also going into debt again. Luckily Brexit has made the exchange rates better in my favor. Oh, and it's the only country in the world I had trouble entering every time I came, at least until I got my British Passport this July! What was ironic is that I was always a British Citizen. That almost made it worse when I mentioned it to the Immigration Officer earlier this year!
Hey Skye! I've heard some horror stories from friends trying to enter the UK being quizzed almost to tears – even though some are on working visas! At least you have the tangible proof of your citizenship now. Have fun on the road, might see you in the UK next year. :-)
Ellen Hawley says
I moved from the U.S. to Cornwall, and the going belief here is that it's a lot easier to get to know people outside London–in fact, outside the southeast. Our experience is that it's been easy to make friends, but it does seem to depend heavily on where you live.
I did generally find people friendlier outside of London… but on the other hand the friendships I made in the city were surprisingly strong! I'm glad you've settled in well, Ellen. Haven't yet made it to Cornwall but it looks beautiful.

By The Speaker (Council Member Quinn) and Council Members Brewer, Comrie, Dromm, Fidler, James, Koslowitz, Lander, Lappin, Palma, Van Bramer, Mark-Viverito, Jackson, Garodnick, Mendez, Nelson, Koppell, Reyna, Eugene and Gennaro
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring the City Clerk to provide the public with certain information regarding same sex marriages.
Section 1. Chapter 2 of title 3 of the administrative code of the city of New York is amended by adding a new section 3-207.1 to read as follows:
§3-207.1 Marriage notification. a. The city clerk shall prominently post the following information on the section(s) of the city clerk's website, or any successor website maintained by or on behalf of the city clerk or a successor officer, relating to marriage, domestic partnerships or other similar subjects: (i) a list of all domestic and international jurisdictions that perform same sex marriages; and (ii) the following text: "Lawfully married individuals, including individuals in same sex marriages, are entitled to more New York State rights and benefits than those registered as domestic partners here in New York City. If an individual lawfully enters into a same sex marriage in a jurisdiction outside New York, they are entitled to most of the New York State rights and benefits available to people lawfully married in New York. If you are considering entering into a marriage in one of the jurisdictions listed above, it is recommended that you contact that jurisdiction beforehand in order to learn about any applicable marriage requirements or restrictions."
b. All information required to be made available on the internet pursuant to this local law shall also be prominently displayed and distributed free of charge in hard copy at the marriage bureau in the city clerk's office.
c. The obligations of the city clerk under this section shall be continuing and the city clerk shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that all information provided pursuant to this section is accurate and current and shall update such information as appropriate.
§ 2. This local law shall take effect thirty days after its enactment.


A good media list combines your research abilities with time-saving technology to create a perfectly targeted list of people who are likely to be interested in your client. Quality over quantity is key here. The more targeted your media list, the more effective it is. The last thing you should do is send your press release to a journalist that doesn't cover its subject matter.
A good media list takes time to build. This requires making phone calls to reporters, sending them emails and even paying visits to their offices to ensure that they are the relevant individuals to correspond with. Attending events where the media are present is also very helpful, as this enables face-to-face meetings where you can obtain contact details and build on relationships.
Constantly update your media list – this should be done on a quarterly basis. Reporters move to different publications, change specialty, or simply go on to other things. Often this happens without them informing their contacts, even when they continue to receive what is now 'irrelevant' material for them.
Read! Set aside two hours each week to go through newspapers and magazines. Make notes of the articles and columns that pertain to your clients and familiarise yourself with the tone of the various publications.
Take opportunities to get to know your contacts away from work. This can lead to the development of genuine friendships that will be fruitful for both parties in both work and in non-work related matters.
Don't overlook freelancers. They are becoming more the norm for websites and print outlets. Many publications rely on them to fill up column inches.
Are they an appropriate contact for my press release or pitch?
If not, you need to establish which of their colleagues is a better contact.
What is the best time of the day to reach out to them?
Sometimes, sending a press release early in the day might not be the best thing to do, as by the time the reporter reaches their desk, your email will be at the bottom of their in-box. Some media representatives work during the weekend and take time off during the week – this information is also handy to know.
What are their recurring deadlines?
It is best not to contact journalists or send them anything close to their deadlines, as they will be busy closing their pages and won't have to time to entertain your requests. It is important to establish the recurring deadlines of any reporter on your media list so that you avoid sending them material on or close to this date.
What are the major topics and issues they are currently interested in?
Knowing a journalist's special areas of interest within their sphere of reporting can help when pitching a particular story, as it shows that you on the same wavelength as them. You will increase the chance of your piece being taken up if you can demonstrate that you are tuned into their niche concerns.
Have any of my colleagues worked with them before?
Obtaining insight from your co-workers will definitely help you in breaking the ice quickly with the journalists. It can assist you in getting to know their habits, which will in turn make it easier to communicate with them.
Are they on LinkedIn or Twitter?
You can get to know a great deal about a person from their social media pages. Through LinkedIn and Twitter you can develop an insight into the journalist's preferences, their mind-set and their ideology.

If maybe you could do view a really ugly, actually slightly ugly, star quarterback? I swear, I have never seen a quarterback who looked much like a nerd; you know, bald, thinning hair, a dorky face, simply that geeky watch. Why is that? Okay, there are certainly a few relegations. John Elway certainly was never handsome, not with those horse teeth understanding that misshapen oral cavity.

Gardening *Public* A public forum.
Another helpful hint is to put a piece of chalk in your container. It helps absorb any excess moisture. Or you can use those little nitrogen packs in vitamins/shoes/etc. Just be sure not to let kids play with/eat them!
Be aware that the seed won't always breed true, especially if it's a hybrid. Mostly talking vegetables, here.
Ive been taught that its better to save just heirloom seeds.
For storage I've also heard powdered milk fyi. Hoping it works b/c that's what's in my fridge with my seeds right now!
That's great about the chalk, must remember that.
I need my own yard!
I want to save seeds, mostly from some organic and heirloom tomatos. Is the procedure similar?
trying to live like olaf "this is the best day of my life!... and quite possibly the last!"
tomatoes you need to put it in a jar and wait till they get foamy, then drain and dry on a paper towel.
anyone know how you get carrot seeds? if i leave a carrot in the ground how many seeds would i get from it?
because he has dealt bountifully with me.
I can't believe I haven't clicked on this sticky before!
Amanda has it right for the tomato seeds. It's called fermenting the seeds and you can stick them in any sort of container, it doesn't have to be a jar. I plop the seeds and juices just in a custard cup and set them on the kitchen counter. After the first 24 hours or so, I drain off any liquid twice a day and keep going until all the jelly-like bits have turned to liquid and I've drained it away. Then I rinse them well and lay them out on a towel to dry for a bit. When they seem dry, I transfer them to a paper towel or piece of absorbant scrap paper and set them aside for a week or two where they can dry out thoroughly before going into a package for storage.
The New Seed-Starters' Handbook by Nancy Bubel is an excellent book on both saving and starting seeds of all sorts. It covers flowers, veggies and trees quite thoroughly and it's my go-to book for sure. I've learned tricks in there that I have yet to see in online guides or other gardening books. Love it!


MANILA, Philippines – The Commission on Human Rights (CHR) is now clinging to "rational minds" in the Senate after the House of Representatives voted to only allocate P1,000 for its 2018 budget.
"Despite this defeat in the House, we look forward to defending our budget in the Senate," CHR Chairperson Chito Gascon said on Tuesday, September 12. "We hope that reason, necessity, and rational minds will prevail both in the Senate and in the bicameral committee."
Acting on a motion by SAGIP Representative Rodante Marcoleta, 119 lawmakers voted in favor of giving the Philippines' national human rights commission a measly P1,000. Only 32 legislators voted against Marcoleta's motion.
On Monday, September 11, the Senate finance committee approved the CHR's proposed budget amounting to P678 million. It is still lower than 2017's P749 million.
What happened in the budget plenary deliberations in the House of Representatives was in line with Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez's threats against the commission.
Alvarez earlier said he wants to give the CHR only P1,000 for allegedly not doing its job. Meanwhile, during the budget briefings in the committee level, he threatened to give it zero.
But Gascon maintains that the commission is fulfilling its mandate. Created through the 1987 Philippine Constitution, the CHR is tasked to investigate allegations of human rights abuses by state actors such as the military or police.
"It is our business to be a check on authority, and it is our mandate to remind the state about violations and to call it out so it can correct itself," Gascon explained.
"Dapat hindi minamasama ng Kongreso kung ginagawa namin ang aming trabaho (Congress should not take it negatively if we are just doing our job)," he added.
Duterte's anti-drug campaign has led to the deaths of more than 3,500 people in police operations, while the number of people actually killed by vigilantes is still being debated.
"[The] CHR, in all circumstances, whether during the time of Duterte and in previous administrations, has always taken a position for and behalf of human rights against public authority," Gascon said. "The CHR will continue to operate so long that the Constitution operates."

In op-ed, Rep. Ilhan Omar argues Israel is also the homeland of Palestinian Arabs, calls for two-state solution.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) on Sunday wrote an op-ed in The Washington Post in which she argued that Israel is also the homeland of Palestinian Arabs.
Omar also argued that working toward peace in the Middle East means holding everyone involved accountable for actions that undermine the path to peace, including Israel.
"My goal in speaking out at all times has been to encourage both sides to move toward a peaceful two-state solution. We need to reinsert this call back into the public debate with urgency. Both parties must come to the table for a final peace deal; violence will not bring us any closer to that day," she continued.
Omar's piece follows the controversy she caused recently with remarks deemed to be anti-Semitic.
Omar came under fire after she suggested on Twitter that Republicans were attacking her at the behest of the pro-Israel lobby AIPAC. She subsequently issued a half-hearted apology before ultimately deleting the controversial tweets.
Omar later caused another uproar when, at a public event, she appeared to refer to domestic support for Israel as "allegiance to a foreign country".
The remarks led the Democratic leadership in the House of Representatives to work on a new resolution condemning anti-Semitism. However, the resolution was watered down to include condemnation of all forms of bigotry after objections from some Democrats. The watered-down version was ultimately approved by an overwhelming majority.
US President Donald Trump condemned Omar's remarks, saying "she should be ashamed of herself" and calling on her to resign from Congress.
Trump has also been critical of the Democratic party for failing to condemn Omar, suggesting to reporters last week that the Democratic party has become an "anti-Israel" and "anti-Jewish" party.
Former US Senator Joe Lieberman, a Democrat who later became an Independent, said in an interview on Sunday that the Democratic Party "is not an anti-Jewish party" but that it has members who say anti-Semitic things, while specifically naming Omar.

Noam Enbar (born 1978 in Tel Aviv) is a singer, composer, songwriter, artistic director, music producer, band and chorus leader, film and theater composer and teacher/mentor. He is the founder of the Israeli post-rock band Habiluim, the Klezmer-Punk band Oy Division and the Great Gehenna Choir.

Music career

Habiluim
In 1996 Enbar started the group Habiluim, together with guitarist Yami Weissler. The two wrote the lyrics and composed music for all of the group's songs, some together and some apart. Enbar was the lead vocalist and bass guitar player. The group put out three studio albums between the years 2003–2013 ("Habiluim" in 2003, "Bereavement and Failure" in 2007 and "Escalation Hora!" in 2013). Even though the band stopped being active after its last album it has never officially disbanded.

Oy Division
In 2006 Enbar joined a group of friends to put together the Klezmer ensemble Oy Division. Enbar was the lead vocalist and composed songs to Yiddish texts. The ensemble put out two albums with Enbar ("Oy Division" and "The Internazional", 2008) and performed at festivals worldwide.

Music for Film and Theatre
Between 2007 and 2016 Enbar collaborated with the director Avi Mugrabi on three films: "z32" (Venice Film Festival 2008) which tells the real-life story of a soldier sent to act out a revenge. "Once I entered a Garden" (Rome Film Festival 2012) which tells the story of the teacher Ali Al-Azhari from the village Sepphoris. "Between Fences" (Berlin Film Festival 2016) which is about a theatre workshop that was held in joint with asylum seekers from Eritrea and Sudan while being held at the detention camp "Holot" in southern Israel. Enbar composed the music for the films and took part in the production and script writing. Enbar's collaboration with Mugrabi also brought "The Details", a sound-video exhibition. The work was put up as part of the debut at the Berlin Film Festival in 2012 and later at the "White Nights" in Paris in 2013 and at the Open City Doc Fest in London in 2014.

In 2017 at the Berlinale Forum Expanded Enbar presented his work "Pana Hageshem" ("The Rain is Gone"). This structured-improvisatory composition devised by Enbar was performed in collaboration with the workshop participants from "Between Fences". It takes a famous Israeli agricultural song, associated with the Kibbutz movement, turning it into an expressive polyphonic chant.

Enbar took part in two pieces for stage art with the poet and playwright Yonatan Levi: "The general and the Sea" (2014), a momentous piece for a choir and single actor which tells the story of Rafael Eitan, and "Giants (Ne'filim)" (Israel Festival 2016), a grim trilogy spanning three decades of Israeli cultural history.

Choral Music and Performance
In 2012 Enbar put on the show "Sleep Inducement" ("Hardama") at the Israel Museum. Audience members where reclined on mattresses and lulled with dream-inducing surreal songs in Hebrew, Arabic, Yiddish, Polish, English and Armenian. "Sleep Inducement" was premiered in 2012 at the Israeli Museum, followed by the 2013 "Home Festival", Jerusalem.

In 2014 as part of the Jerusalem Season of Culture Enbar put on the show "Psychomysticism!" together with Guitarist Adam Shaflan and Drummer Ariel Armoni. In "Psychomysticism!" Enbar melded psychedelic rock and classic Jewish Hazanut music. He especially incorporated pieces by Pierre Pinchik.

In 2015, together with director Nir Shauluf, Enbar produced "GHOM! A Gibberish Cantata" at Techtonics Festival in Tel Aviv. "GHOM! A Gibberish Cantata" is a liturgic piece for six singers and an 11-year-old solo singer. The gibberish texts were put together by the poet Yonatan Levi.

In 2015 Enbar founded "The Great Gehenna Choir", dedicated to experimenting with egalitarian, democratic forms of artistic practice, as joined decision-making and changing conductors from within the choir itself. The choir put together singers from different backgrounds. Enbar composed the music for the choir from texts by poets such as Lewis Carroll, Aharon Shabtai, and Yonatan Levi. After two years of performing the choir became a cooperative collective.

In 2017 Enbar opened his solo exhibition "Preaching to the Choir" ("Sharim BaKikar") at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. The exhibition showed for six months and contained works for singers and participatory events. In this project Enbar also cooperated with Eurovision Song Contest winner Netta Barzilai.

In 2017, Enbar put on his piece "Ra'am" for ensemble of drummers commissioned by Basis Academy of the Arts, Herzliya. This was a site specific, durational piece, created in collaboration with light-designer Omer Shezaf, embedding itself in the tower-like architecture of Basis Academy.

In 2018 and 2019, Enbar's piece for a large choir "Blindshigt" ("Atzum") was presented at Mekudeshet festival in Jerusalem.

Advancing Educational Justice
As we approach the second anniversary of an ongoing global pandemic that has rocked our lives in big and small ways, it's imperative that we act on this opportunity to leave behind inequitable systems of education and embrace the lessons we've learned about co-designing justice-centered strategies with families and communities that better serve all youth and move us closer to realizing a more equal and vibrant society.
Certainly, the last 22 months have demanded our growth and throughout this time I've often thought of the call to action shared by the late U.S. Congressman John Lewis, a Civil Rights icon who devoted himself to advancing racial justice and equality and used his words to galvanize action. Near the end of his life, Rep. Lewis encouraged all of us to "never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble." Encouraged by Rep. Lewis's words, I have been reflecting on what it means to "make noise" and get in "good" and "necessary trouble" in education — particularly as we look forward to emerging from the pandemic prepared to leave behind policies and systems that were not designed to meet the needs of diverse children, families and communities.
Fittingly inspired by Rep. Lewis's powerful and evergreen call to action, this leads me to the theme for this year's edition of Research That Matters — "Good Disruption." I'm exceptionally proud of the "good disruption" our faculty, students, alumni, community partners and staff have created from this tumultuous time. Indeed, this edition of Research That Matters showcases nine impactful stories that not only demonstrate the range and depth of work the UW College of Education does in partnership with families, communities, centers and local and national organizations to advance educational justice, but also the innovative ways we've embraced disruption to do so.
For example, through an evolving research-practice partnership between the College of Education, Seattle Public Schools and the Seattle Education Association, the voices and experiences of diverse families and communities are being centered to drive systemic change in public education and transform our understanding of where and how learning takes place, as well as who counts as "experts," as a way to challenge the pervasive "learning loss" narrative that emerged during the pandemic. In another example, researchers at the UW Haring Center for Inclusive Education have co-opted the evidence-based Project ECHO® model — a hub and spoke framework initially developed in medicine that connects teams of experts with families— to give parents raising children with disabilities across the state access to professionals, tools and a strong community of support during the pandemic. These two stories are indicative of the robust ways we are working with community to embrace the turbulence of this moment and co-design good disruption that advances educational justice.
In the following pages, I hope you will be inspired and gain new insights into how we can seize this opportunity to embrace disruption to reimagine more just systems and ways of being in relation with one another.
