Vision: BNPS follows a bottom-up right-based approach linking community to the national level. In the process its role is one of a catalyst and facilitator. BNPS has been trying to create an environment for women and other marginalized groups raising their voice and claiming their entitlements through a variety of activities, like awareness raising, institution building, livelihood activities and reforms of different policies, systems, institutions and mindset. The congenial working environment, culture of co-operation and teamwork, non-hierarchical management with an activist orientation is seen by all as an asset in BNPS. So far BNPS has directly worked with around 200,000 women and over a period of two-and-a-half decades more than 800,000 people from different backgrounds have been involved in the initiatives undertaken by BNPS.

Mission: BNPS works at the community level for involving women in income-generating activities (IGA) through providing credit support, training for the management of micro enterprises, accounts-keeping and skill development, which have created a sustained environment and space for women. BNPS not only has the expertise and wisdom of working with women towards social and economic empowerment but also an activist tenacity to take a political stand to encounter the conservative opposition to the cause of women and human rights. BNPS has also played a pioneering role in challenging many conservative mindsets, and resisting the religion fundamentalists and their exploitative networks.
Goal & Objective: BNPS envisaged a society free from all sorts of discrimination and working for establishing an enabling environment for women and disadvantaged people through empowerment and social transformation.

Honda Project 2&4 revealed
by Garage Mike	September 9, 2015
Honda has unveiled a radical ultra-lightweight track focussed concept, set to make its public debut at next week's Frankfurt Motor Show.
As the name suggests, Project 2&4 melds aspects of Honda's car and motorcycle divisions to create a 158kW/118Nm screamer that weighs just 405kg.
At just 3040mm long (half a metre shorter than a Fiat 500) the 2&4's compact dimensions are made possible by its wild mechanical configuration, in which the driver sits next to the 999c V4 engine, lifted from Honda's RC213V MotoGP bike.
The open cockpit is intended to give the feeling of immersion provided by a motorbike, with only the four-point harness holding the driver in place.
The race-spec engine produces peak power at a dizzying 13,000rpm and delivers its 158kW to the rear wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox.
The resultant 390kW/tonne power-to-weight ratio promises vivid acceleration, however it's likely that should a production version of the 2&4 appear, the MotoGP engine will be swapped for a more street-friendly unit like the 131kW/112Nm 1.0-litre four from the CBR1000RR.
Despite Honda talking up the 2&4's road legality, it's extremely unlikely a road-going version will appear, however it proves that Honda still has a pulse.
With the new NSX suffering constant delays and its return to Formula 1 causing more harm than benefit to its image, Honda could do worse than to release a limited-run of the 2&4, if only to prove its capable of making something exciting again.

Getting A Good Date Using The Help Of A Dating Coach In the times we are living in, finding love is considered to be a simple task. This has been brought about by reality shows like the bachelor that are aired on national television. People will come to the realization that dating is not so easy when they take the time to find the connection between dating and the breakup period. Dating coaches work with their customers to help them achieve success in their love lives. They do this by helping them improve the dating skills they have and overcome the personal issues that may be holding them back. It is nice to choose to work with these professionals. Individuals tend to hire the coaches to help them for less important aspects of their lives like losing weight or playing a musical instrument. Therefore people are now also hiring these experts to help them with more important issues of their lives. Mentioned below are some of the signals that you should seek the help of a dating coach. The first sign is that you seem to have a problem going past the first date. This is a situation that most people may find themselves in. Mostly you may have trouble figuring out where the problem is. An individual will have their issues. The other person may have been turned off by a thing, or things that you may have done. These dating coaches will see all the flaws, and they will show you how you can overcome them. You may also need some assistance from a professional if you have only had short term relationships. The long term relationship is one where the couple still have intimacy with each other even after they have been together for more than half a year. If you are past 25 and have not had one of such relationships, then you should find a coach to help you. It may be that there are certain personal issues that are preventing you from maintaining a relationship.

House passes two sanctions bills, sending foreign policy message on Iran and Syria
The House laid down markers Tuesday as to how it will try to shape foreign policy going into the new administration by passing two sanctions bills: one targeting Iran, the other Syria.
The House overwhelmingly passed a 10-year extension of the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA) by a vote of 419 to 1. The ISA forms the basis for energy, banking and defense sanctions against Iran's nuclear and missile activities, and was set to expire at the end of the year.
The House also passed by voice vote a measure imposing new sanctions on anyone who provides the Syrian government with financial, material or technological support — a category that includes Russia and Iran — in an effort to "halt the wholesale slaughter of the Syrian people."
The Obama administration had sought to delay both measures, though the president never threatened a veto, and President-elect Donald Trump has yet to weigh in on either bill. But the bills are a message from the House that it favors a strict approach to dealing with Tehran and international powers helping Syria's government target civilians in that country's civil war — even if the White House would rather be left to its own devices.
Though the United States and other parties agreed last year to eventually lift certain sanctions on Iran in exchange for Tehran scrapping its nuclear program, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have long argued that an extension of the ISA is necessary to ensure that there are punitive measures to "snap back" to if Iran violates its obligations under the nuclear deal.
Since then, the Obama White House has indicated that it thinks the ISA is unnecessary, asserting that the president already has the authority to sanction Tehran over any violations of the deal, as well as over recent ballistic missile activity and other aggressive moves. Congressional leaders don't accept this argument.

Top Workplaces Case Study:
Danberry Realtors
Danberry Realtors Puts Agents First, Success Follows
Danberry Realtors assists consumers in selling, buying, renting, and managing residential and commercial properties. The company's 350 agents work out of seven offices in Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan, and about 50 support personnel provide property management, auction, relocation services, and full-service marketing.
Mid-Sized Business
(100-999 employees)
Build a cohesive culture in a business with 90 percent contract employees.
Top Workplaces survey to listen to agents' needs and build a culture to support agents and the community.
Named a Top Workplace since 2017 and reached #1 in the region.
Established in 1962, the company is the region's leading real estate brokerage based on sales volume and transactions. Danberry Realtors also is number one when it comes to employee satisfaction, taking home top honors for the region's 2021 Top Workplaces, placing first for large businesses. It's not a surprise that the company achieves top accolades for both financial success and agent satisfaction, as happy employees are productive employees. An article in The Blade in Toledo highlighted a number of reasons.
"Danberry strives to do what's best for the agents," Rick Popiolek, an agent at the Toledo office who has
worked for the company for 30 years, told the newspaper. "Other companies strive to do what's best for the company. They don't always put their agents number one."
Creating a cohesive company culture can be especially difficult in the real estate industry. About 90 percent of Danberry's agents are independent contractors. To create camaraderie among agents, Danberry focuses on promoting team volunteerism and supports a number of charity events every year.
"... I very much enjoy selling real estate but love working for Danberry. I attribute 100 percent of my success to the environment of my office and co-workers."
Anonymous Employee at Danberry Realtors
A Commitment to Culture Keeps Business Strong in Hard Times
When the pandemic hit and charitable opportunities evaporated, the company made a point to continue its warm and cohesive culture, and let its agents know that they were supported, The Blade reported.
Maintaining that culture while going virtual posed a challenge, company co-owner Dan McQuilen told the newspaper, but the company found creative alternatives to in-person gatherings, including hosting virtual trivia nights and Pictionary sessions.
Employees also were encouraged to rally around each other. When an agent got sick, others organized a meal train. If someone needed something from the office but didn't feel safe leaving home, co-workers helped out.
Agents anonymously surveyed for Top Workplaces by Energage praised the company's culture of interpersonal intimacy and creative variety.
"As far as the culture, the pandemic has made it stronger, because everybody knows the company has got our back," Popiolek was quoted as saying. "They've been bending over backwards to make it as easy as possible for us to continue working. Whatever we need, they take care of us."
When Culture is Strong, Employees Lean In And Produce Big Results
There were some positive developments from the pandemic too. Before the pandemic, about half the company's contractors attended monthly office meetings. Now, with the meeting just a click away, participation has doubled, the newspaper reported.
While 50 to 75 percent of staffers took advantage of remote options even before the pandemic, now about 95 percent of staffers work remotely. The company responded by putting all the tools in place to facilitate remote work.
"(The pandemic) made us a better company — it's forced us to be a better company," McQuillen was quoted as saying.
Despite a plunge in real estate transactions at the beginning of the pandemic, leadership continued to ensure the workplace environment was spirited and friendly, with a continued emphasis on employee well-being. As a result, Danberry realtors were determined to make the company successful. Demand eventually rebounded, and the company ended up having its best-ever financial year in 2020, The Blade reported.

While you're busy filling out your March Madness brackets, here's an update on what's been happening with the Roughriders.
A few things to note about this group. McKenzie recorded the 6th fastest 40 yard dash in NFL Combine history at 4.32 and has been clocked as low as 4.26. That's some serious speed. Brownie was a 5th round pick by BC in last year's Canadian draft. We drafted Stadnyk last year in the 2nd round after trading our 1st rounder this year to BC. He's very similar in build and style as Jon Chick, he also happens to be a Regina native.
I don't really expect more than 2 of these names to be around long enough to become noteworthy but it's reassuring that we are at least bringing some solid competition to camp. I'm especially happy about brining in some new guys to compete on the D-line because last year our D-line was about as intimidating as basket full of bunnies and as effective as a March Madness system of picking teams based on who has the coolest name (which is incidentally the system I've used unsuccessfully for a number of years now).
Also, Bob Wylie was officially introduced as our new O-line coach. I've actually been expecting this announcement for 3 months now, as it was reported back in January that Wylie would join the Riders. Not sure why it took so long for this to become official… either way this is a great signing. Wylie will be a valuable addition to our staff.
Usually the term "career special teamer" is a negative label for a player to have but not for Spencer. He's a guy who legitimately excels on special teams… and appears to have no discernable skills in any other facet of the game.
Losing out on the bidding war for Jon Oosterhuis (alleged to be in the tens of dollars) is a tough pill to swallow and significantly hinders our Grey Cup aspirations. Truth be told, I would be willing to overlook Oosterhuis' marginal playing abilities to see him in Green and White if for no other reason that to get to say his name regularly.
As for Glenn, Mike Kelly sure looks like an idiot now. After going on record as saying he intended to pay Glenn's bonus, everyone laughed at him (especially Bob Obillovich) because they were sure he was full of crap. Turns out we were all right and Kelly did cut Glenn rather than pay the bonus he would have been due. Shocking I know. About the only good thing here for Kelly is that he's working in Winnipeg… he'll fit in perfectly with the other idiots (also known as Manitobans). Only thing is Kelly can't blame inbreeding.
Just a few shorts years ago, BC boasted one of the best groups of Canadian receivers in recent memory with Clermont, Jackson and Thelwell. Today Jackson is still around but instead of Clermont and Thelwell, their next best option is O'Neil Wilson… I guess even the BC Lions aren't immune to the recession.
Don't expect to hear much more about Juan Joseph. Edmonton is a tough place for a QB prospect. Not only will he have to live in the shadows of Ricky Ray's immense talent, he will also have to dwell in the shadows created by Maas' giant ears.
For those of you who don't remember the name Abraham Morlu, he was a receiver brought into camp by Winnipeg last year. But not just any receiver… Morlu is a Liberian sprinter who once competed in the Olympics. Seriously, how many teams can boast that an Olympian is on their roster? An Olympian who's football experience amounts to a brief high school career and a few weeks at Blue Bomber training camp prior to being cut… but an Olympian nonetheless. I highly doubt Morlu will amount to anything. If being a talented in one area of life automatically translated into success in another, OJ Simpson would be tearing up the NASCAR circuit as we speak.
PS – what kind of name is Cleannord anyway?


Fullers Jewelry was founded in 1990 by the current owner Daniel Fuller. Originally located at 52 East Elm street in Canton Illinois, in 1994 we purchased the current location 46 North Main Street on the West side of the downtown square. It was formerly Reicherts Jewelry, and has been a single family owned full service jewelry store since 1892. Recently the building has undergone restoration work to bring back the location's appearance as it looked around the 1890's. This includes a formerly forgotten transom window over the unique arched entranceway, as well as a natural green granite lower facade and decorative tile entrance floor.
Our store's interior is emblematic of the rich history of a business that has witnessed a hundred years of change. The majority of our showcases and displays are originals to the location, and have been in use here since 1870's. The roof is original tin work, and the balcony cases are still in use as storage. We have taken pains to fill all our new and old cases with both traditional and modern selections in gift ware and fine jewelry.

GUSD Board of Education Unanimously Passes Resolution Designating April 2015 as "Month of Commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide
Posted byancawreducation March 25, 2015 January 29, 2021 Posted inResolutions
On Tuesday, March 24, 2015, the Glendale Unified Board of Education unanimously passed a resolution titled "Remembering the Armenian Genocide and Reaffirming a Better World" designating April 2015 as Month of Commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, reported the Armenian National Committee of America, Glendale (ANCA Glendale).
The resolution provides a historical overview of the 1915 Armenian Genocide and calls upon the Republic of Turkey to acknowledge the facts of the Armenian Genocide and work towards a just resolution. The measure also highlights American philanthropic efforts during and after the Armenian Genocide by commending the work of the Near East Relief (NER), and resolves that the GUSD will continue its commitment to providing the proper teacher-training workshops and educational resources to support Armenian Genocide curriculum for all high school social studies teachers and students.
"This evening, we witnessed the passing of the most comprehensive and action oriented resolution by the School Board, and it truly goes to support the reputation of the GUSD as a model district nationwide it rightfully deserves," stated ANCA-Glendale Community Outreach Coordinator Tigranna Zakaryan. "We commend the GUSD Board of Education Members for their leadership and passing a commemorative resolution year after year, which engages our youth in the educational background needed to support their understanding of the Armenian Genocide," added Zakaryan.
The resolution was presented by School Board member Nayiri Nahabedian and followed by commentary by School Board President Greg Krikorian in stating, "Our community, our youth, and our cause only grow stronger by the day as we continue our message in demanding justice and reparation of our land. This only reverberates as we approach the Centennial and we are very encourage by the engagement of our youth in continuing this quest." In relation to the GUSD resolution, Krikorian continued by emphasizing, "Today's resolution is vital but only a piece of the puzzle in achieving our ultimate goal of recognition."
The ANCA-Glendale also shared a video that shed light on the ANCA-WR's recently launched campaign "America We Thank You: An Armenian Tribute to the Near East Relief" and will work closely with the GUSD School Board and administration in the coming weeks to host district-wide assemblies that will educate students, faculty, and staff on this proud, yet rarely taught portion of American history.
In addition, ANCA-Glendale will also work in collaboration with the GUSD Armenian Clubs to support their preparations for Centennial commemorative events and will coordinate GUSD to encourage students to participate in the Armenian Genocide Centennial Committee's spearheaded March for Justice, and the ANCA-WR's Advocacy Day in Sacramento.
The ANCA-Glendale advocates for the social, economic, cultural, and political rights of the city's Armenian American community and promotes increased civic participation at the grassroots and public policy levels.

Diuretics and Electrolyte Abnormalities
Tobias Dreischulte, MPharm, MSc, PhD; July 2019
During a primary care visit, a woman with morbid obesity, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, heart failure, and diabetes mellitus complained of worsening lower extremity edema over the past few weeks. Her physician prescribed a thiazide diuretic. The patient presented to the emergency department (ED) 10 days later with 3 days of drowsiness and confusion. Laboratory results revealed severe hyponatremia and hypokalemia. She had a seizure in the ED and was admitted to the intensive care unit. Both the critical care provider and a nephrologist felt the diuretic had caused the electrolyte abnormalities.
Speaking Up for Patient Safety: What They Don't Tell You in Training About Feedback and Burnout
Allan S. Frankel, MD; Kathryn C. Adair, PhD; and J. Bryan Sexton, PhD; June 2019
A proceduralist went to perform ultrasound and thoracentesis on an elderly man admitted to the medicine service with bilateral pleural effusions. Unfortunately, he scanned the wrong patient (the patient had the same last name and was in the room next door). When the patient care assistant notified the physician of the error, he proceeded to scan the correct patient. He later nominated the assistant for a Stand Up for Safety Award.
What Happened on Telemetry?
by Kristin E. Sandau, PhD, RN, and Marjorie Funk, PhD, RN; April 2019
An elderly woman with a history of dementia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, and congestive heart failure (CHF) was brought to the emergency department and found to meet criteria for sepsis. Due to her CHF, she was admitted to a unit with telemetry monitoring, which at this institution was performed remotely. When the nurse came to check the patient's vital signs several hours later, she found the patient to be unresponsive and apneic, with no palpable pulse. A Code Blue was called, but the patient died. Although the telemetry technician had recognized progressive bradycardia and called the hospital floor several minutes before the code, he was placed on hold because the nurse was busy with another patient. While he was holding, he observed worsening bradycardia, eventually transitioning to asystole, and tried to redial the unit, but no one answered.
Which Line: Ordering Provider or Proceduralist?
C. Craig Blackmore, MD, MPH; March 2019
A woman with multiple myeloma required placement of a central venous catheter for apheresis. The outpatient oncologist intended to order a nontunneled catheter via computerized provider order entry but accidentally ordered a tunneled catheter. The interventional radiologist thought the order was unusual but didn't contact the oncologist. A tunneled catheter was placed without complications. When the patient presented for apheresis, providers recognized the wrong catheter had been placed, and the patient underwent an additional procedure.
Spotlight: Overdiagnosis and Delay: Challenges in Sepsis Diagnosis
Ifedayo Kuye, MD, MBA, and Chanu Rhee, MD, MPH; October 2018
Admitted with generalized weakness, nausea, and low blood pressure, an elderly man was given IV fluids and broad spectrum antibiotics. Laboratory test results revealed a mildly elevated white count, acute kidney injury, and elevated liver function tests. The patient was admitted to the medical ICU with a presumed diagnosis of septic shock. His blood pressure continued to trend downward. While reviewing the emergency department test results, the ICU resident noticed the patient's troponin level was markedly elevated and his initial ECG revealed T-wave inversions. A repeat ECG in the ICU showed obvious ST segment elevations, diagnostic of an acute myocardial infarction. The resident realized that the patient's low blood pressure was likely due to the myocardial infarction, not septic shock. He underwent urgent cardiac catheterization and was found to have complete occlusion of the right coronary artery, for which a stent was placed.
Steroids and Safety: Preventing Medication Adverse Events During Transitions of Care
David J. Lucier, MD, MBA, MPH, and Jeffrey L. Greenwald, MD; September 2018
An older woman with lung cancer that had metastasized to the brain was admitted to the hospital and found to have Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PJP pneumonia), invasive pulmonary aspergillus, diffuse myopathy, and gastrointestinal bleeding. Medication reconciliation revealed that she had been prescribed a high dose of dexamethasone to reduce the brain swelling associated with the cancer. Although the intention had been to taper the steroids after she received radiotherapy for her brain metastases, the corticosteroids were never tapered, and she continued to take high-dose steroids for more than 2 months. Physicians believed that all of her acute issues were a result of the mistakenly high dose of the steroids.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening
Jeffrey Jim, MD, MPHS; August 2018
An older man with multiple medical conditions and an extensive smoking history was admitted to the hospital with worsening shortness of breath. He underwent transthoracic echocardiogram, which demonstrated severe aortic stenosis. The cardiology team recommended cardiac catheterization, but the interventional cardiologist could not advance the catheter and an aortogram revealed an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) measuring 9 cm in diameter. Despite annual visits to his primary care physician, he had never undergone screening ultrasound to assess for presence of an AAA. The patient was sent emergently for surgical repair but had a complicated surgical course.
"The Ultrasound Looked Fine": Point-of-Care Ultrasound and Patient Safety
Resa E. Lewiss, MD; July 2018
After an emergency department (ED) physician interpreted results of a point-of-care ultrasound as showing stable low ejection fraction, some volume overload, and a mechanical mitral valve in place without regurgitation for a man with a history of congestive heart failure, end-stage renal disease, and mechanical mitral valve replacement who presented with shortness of breath, the patient was admitted with a presumed diagnosis of volume overload. Reassured by the ED physician's interpretation of the ultrasound, the hospitalist ordered no further cardiac testing. The patient underwent hemodialysis, felt better, and was discharged. Less than 12 hours later, the patient returned critically ill and in cardiogenic shock. An emergency transthoracic echocardiogram found a thrombosed mitral valve, which had led to acute mitral stenosis and cardiogenic shock.
Chest Pain in a Rural Hospital
A. Clinton MacKinney, MD, MS, and Nicholas M. Mohr, MD, MS; June 2018
After presenting to a rural emergency department with chest pain, a man with a history of diabetes awaited admission to the hospital. The off-site admitting internist ordered aspirin and a heparin drip, but neither medication was administered. On transfer to the acute care unit 2 hours later, the patient was diaphoretic, somnolent, tachycardic, and borderline hypotensive. The nurse called the internist and realized the heparin drip had never been started. When she went to administer it, the patient was unresponsive, hypotensive, and bradycardic. She called a code blue.
Out of Sight, Out of Mind: Out-of-Office Test Result Management
Eric Poon, MD, MPH; May 2018
An elderly man with a history of giant cell arteritis (GCA) presented to the rheumatology clinic with recurrent headaches one month after stopping steroids. A blood test revealed that his C-reactive protein was elevated, suggesting increased inflammation and a flare of his GCA. However, his rheumatologist was out of town and did not receive the test result. Although the covering physician saw the result, she relayed just the patient's last name without the medical record number. Because the primary rheumatologist had another patient with the same last name, GCA, and a normal CRP, follow-up with the correct patient was delayed until his next set of blood tests.
Transfusion Thresholds in Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Lisa Strate, MD, MPH, and Sophia Swanson, MD; September 2017
An older man with Crohn disease was admitted for abdominal pain and high stool output from his ileostomy. Despite blood passing from his ostomy and a falling hemoglobin level, the patient was not given a timely blood transfusion.
Despite Clues, Failed to Rescue
Amir A. Ghaferi, MD, MS; August 2017
Admitted to gynecology due to excess bleeding and low hemoglobin after elective surgery, an older woman developed severe pain, nausea, and new-onset atrial fibrillation. She was moved to the telemetry unit where cardiologists treated her, and she had episodes of bloody vomit. Intensivists consulted, but the patient arrested while being transferred to the ICU and died despite maximal efforts.
Pseudo-obstruction But a Real Perforation
Shirley C. Paski, MD, MSc, and Jason A. Dominitz, MD, MHS; July 2017
Following an uncomplicated surgery, an older man developed acute colonic pseudo-obstruction refractory to conservative management. During a decompression colonoscopy, the patient's colon was perforated.
Engaging Seriously Ill Older Patients in Advance Care Planning
Daren K. Heyland, MD, MSc; April 2017
When a 94-year-old woman presented for routine primary care, the intern caring for her discovered that the patient's code status was "full code" and that there was no documentation of discussions regarding her wishes for end-of-life care. The intern and his supervisor engaged the patient in an advance care planning discussion, during which she clarified that she would not want resuscitation or life-prolonging measures.
Consequences of Medical Overuse
Daniel J. Morgan, MD, MS, and Andrew Foy, MD; March 2017
Brought to the emergency department from a nursing facility with confusion and generalized weakness, an older woman was found to have an elevated troponin level but no evidence of ischemia on her ECG. A consulting cardiologist recommended treating the patient with three anticoagulants. The next evening, she became acutely confused and a CT scan revealed a large intraparenchymal hemorrhage with a midline shift.
Unintended Consequences of CPOE
Robert L. Wears, MD, PhD; October 2016
While attempting to order a CT scan with only oral contrast for a patient with poor kidney function, an intern ordering a CT for the first time selected "with contrast" from the list, not realizing that meant both oral and intravenous contrast. The patient developed contrast nephropathy.
A Pill Organizing Plight
Brittany McGalliard, PharmD; Rita Shane, PharmD; and Sonja Rosen, MD; September 2016
An elderly woman with multiple medical conditions experienced new onset dizziness and lightheadedness. A home visit revealed numerous problems with her medications, with discontinued medications remaining in her pillbox and a new prescription that was missing. In addition, on some days she was taking up to five blood pressure pills, when she was supposed to be taking only two.
Dropping to New Lows
Patricia Juang, MD, and Kristen Kulasa, MD; April 2016
While hospitalized, a man with diabetes had difficult-to-control blood sugars, with multiple episodes of both critical hypoglycemia and serious hyperglycemia. Because "holds" of the patient's insulin were not clearly documented in the electronic health record and blood sugar readings were not uploaded in real time, providers were unaware of how much insulin had actually been given.
The Risks of Absent Interoperability: Medication-Induced Hemolysis in a Patient With a Known Allergy
Jacob Reider, MD; October 2015
After leaving Hospital X against medical advice, a man with paraplegia presented to the emergency department of Hospital Y with pain and fever. The patient was diagnosed with sepsis and admitted to Hospital Y for management. In the night, the nurse found the patient unresponsive and called a code blue. The patient was resuscitated and transferred to the ICU, where physicians determined that the arrest was due to acute rupturing of his red blood cells (hemolysis), presumably caused by a reaction to the antibiotic. Later that day, the patient's records arrived from three hospitals where he had been treated recently. One record noted that he had previously experienced a life-threatening allergic reaction to the antibiotic, which was new information for the providers at Hospital Y.

Opus Dei Could School The Neoreaction
I believe I first heard of Opus Dei in 1999 when I was working on a political campaign with a good friend who I would describe as a "devout" Catholic. I was interested in the Church at the time, mainly for its central place in the history of the West. My friend and I had numerous late-night discussions (beer for him, martinis for me) about history, politics and the Church. One night after we'd had a few he asked, "Have you ever heard of Opus Dei?" I hadn't.
He told me a fairly amusing story about how Opus had tried to recruit him during his distinguished undergraduate career at Georgetown University. Someone invited him to an event at the Georgetown Opus Dei "Center for Men" and he hung out there a bit, but never seriously considered joining.
"Two interesting things about them," he told me. "One, these guys would only drank one beer, then stop. Two, they had the Washington Post in the lounge, but the ads for women's lingerie had been cut out."
Despite his own intense faith, this wasn't for him. He was at the School of Foreign Service studying to be a diplomat. Detractors of Opus Dei love to shout that it tries to recruit the best and brightest young Catholics who are planning to go into international relations, law, politics and journalism.
Of course, MSNBCBS, the Department of State, Senators and NGOs try and recruit the same set of people to work for them, but they're Righteous Progressive Warriors for Peace and Justice, so that's just fine.
My friend still had a copy of Camino they gave him, and he gave it to me to read. After that, I did some more research on the organization and its founder, Saint Josemaria Escriva.
At any rate, this post is not meant as a thorough history of Opus. The Wiki bio of Escriva is a pretty balanced presentation of the history and development of the movement. Some years later I read Dan Brown's excrescence of a book and was much amused by the albino Opus Dei assassin. The traitorous FBI agent Robert Hannsen was a member, for what it's worth.
At this point, the reader may fairly ask, what the hell has all this to do with Neoreaction? "NRx" is a mainly internet-based socio-politico-philosophical inquiry, not a religious order, has no leader that can be discerned, no structure, no history, no monuments or even office space. Opus has this:
Read : The Radicals Are The Only Ones We Read
But here's the crux (think about what that means): Neoreaction can only affect society if it gets elites to support its ideas, intellectually, financially and eventually physically. Right now, Western elites, the Princeton-Harvard-Yale-DC-Oxford-Davos-Brussels axis, are about 99.44% pure Cathedral Prog, (with a Ted Cruz thrown in for color). The tip of the NRx spear realizes that its real mission, at this point, is to recruit elites as supporters (or at least, sympathizers. Opus calls them "collaborators"). The Neoreaction doesn't seek political power within the current liberal democratic nation-state systems of the West, nor is it a mass movement, nor is it interested in "members" who aren't very intelligent. Like Opus Dei, NRx has a certain exclusivity that keeps it lean and focused, and at the same time seems to make even intelligent opposition lose objectivity.
Opus and the NRx bring out something primal in "Progressives," because they're impervious: men without shame or fear or guilt, at least of the kind that Progs use as a rhetorical hammer to threaten and bludgeon their opposition. "Conservatives" can't stand for long against charges of racism or sexism or ableism or whate'er, because they're liberals. Nothing enrages the Progs like a person who refuses to be intellectually cowed by charges of "hate." A powerful, organized group of such people is their deepest secret fear.
Neoreaction isn't there, yet, not by a long way. It might take some steps by imposing more demands on its followers, the same way that Opus does, and all the successful religions do. The "Mainline Protestants" have withered in direct proportion to their embrace of "inclusiveness" and their depiction of Jesus as your Special Boyfriend who won't judge you, and who will always take you back despite the fact you cheated on Him.
Opus Dei demands you sleep on the floor once a week, arise the instant the alarm goes off and dedicate your every waking moment to excellence and to raising up your daily work to God.
There's a hint of this in some Neoreactionary blogs, lately. While they have different forms, organization (or lack of it), and goals, Opus Dei and the Neoreaction have in common a distaste for the disgusting aspects of modernity and an ethos of raising up the Good, the True and the Beautiful. Of right reason guiding a right social order. Neoreactionaries need emulate Opus Dei in this way: to raise their standards, to conduct themselves as elites and to improve themselves physically, mentally and spiritually. The best way to spread the word is by living example.

The tiger roars. It bares its teeth and, staring directly at us, bellows even louder than before. Kyoko drops her pack in fright.
It's hard to follow his advice when Kyoko's pack lands on my foot.
The tiger roars a third time, deep and throaty, mouth open wide. My body stiffens. The fear in my heart is much greater than the throb in my foot. I am the White Crane whose eyes can see clearly long cruel canines for puncturing and tearing. Strong vicious jaws for ripping and chewing.
Sensei has taught us about tigers. One swipe to the head is enough to kill and one bite can sever a limb or carve a chunk out of your spine.
Nothing moves. Around us the forest cowers motionless beneath the monster's roar. The tiger pauses in the middle of the mountain track. Watching.
But it's not a game this time. Beside me Mikko's face is rice flour white. Taji, Kyoko, Yoshi and I barely breathe. Chen's face is palest of all. In the busy streets of Beijing, a street kid hears many terrible stories about tigers who hunt men for food.
The tiger turns its head, distracted by something in the trees.
We don't look to see what it is. We stay still. Dead still inside a silence so thick you could cut it with a samurai sword. None of us reach for our weapons because we wouldn't be quick enough. Not even Mikko. The tiger would strike before his sword was out of its scabbard.
Mikko is our fastest runner but no one can outrun a tiger. And if Mikko paid more attention in class, he would know tigers can climb.


A context for function object execution.
Class used to uniquely identify a service.
An execution context represents a place where function objects will be executed. An io_context is an example of an execution context.
Services exist to manage the resources that are shared across an execution context. For example, timers may be implemented in terms of a single timer queue, and this queue would be stored in a service.
Access to the services of an execution_context is via three function templates, use_service(), add_service() and has_service().
In a call to use_service<Service>(), the type argument chooses a service, making available all members of the named type. If Service is not present in an execution_context, an object of type Service is created and added to the execution_context. A C++ program can check if an execution_context implements a particular service with the function template has_service<Service>().
Service objects may be explicitly added to an execution_context using the function template add_service<Service>(). If the Service is already present, the service_already_exists exception is thrown. If the owner of the service is not the same object as the execution_context parameter, the invalid_service_owner exception is thrown.
Once a service reference is obtained from an execution_context object by calling use_service(), that reference remains usable as long as the owning execution_context object exists.
All service implementations have execution_context::service as a public base class. Custom services may be implemented by deriving from this class and then added to an execution_context using the facilities described above.
Class execution_context may be used only as a base class for concrete execution context types. The io_context is an example of such a derived type.
On destruction, a class that is derived from execution_context must perform execution_context::shutdown() followed by execution_context::destroy().
When a single connection ends, all associated asynchronous operations complete. The corresponding handler objects are destroyed, and all shared_ptr references to the objects are destroyed.
To shut down the whole program, the io_context function stop() is called to terminate any run() calls as soon as possible. The io_context destructor calls shutdown() and destroy() to destroy all pending handlers, causing all shared_ptr references to all connection objects to be destroyed.

Q: Can I get exim to reject some email addresses I have exim set up to accept local address with a suffix of -. So if joe is a user then joe-anything is accepted.
However there are some of these subaddresses I want to reject (they have become too spam infested and nothing useful comes on them).  Is there are way of doing this before it gets prorcessed by the local user router.  Can I do something in an alias file?
I am runing on Ubuntu 10.04

A: Add another router before the localuser router that only exists to reject the lp/suffix combos you want rejected.  Here's an example with the suffixes hard coded:
reject_suffixes:
  driver = redirect
  local_parts = joe-badsuff1 : joe-badsuff2
  allow_fail
  fail_verify = true
  data = :fail: invalid email <$local_part@$domain>

The other way to go would be to look it up from a file.  Same basic concept, just with a file lookup:
reject_suffixes:
  driver = redirect
  local_parts = /path/to/file
  allow_fail
  fail_verify = true
  data = :fail: invalid email <$local_part@$domain>

The file pointed to by local_parts is just a list of local_parts to reject:
joe-badsuff1
jane-badsuff2
jack-badsuff1
# etc...

I prefer using routers to do this instead of ACLs because it catches all the edge cases like messages submitted locally (and so which don't trip the rcpt acl), etc.

A: You can create an acl to reject these addresses. To the "begin acl" section, add something like this:
deny message = This address is locked.
  recipients = /a/file/containing/the/rejected/addresses

This will reject the message even if the recipients would otherwise to be accepted.
The "recipients" part here is a simple list, you can use any kind of list instead of specifying a file (sql lookup, hardcoded list, whatever).

A: Just add an alias for them.
# alias   : :action:  Comment
joe-spam  : :fail: Disabled due to spam volume.

A: I like to manage the rejected subaddresses along with the accepted addresses in the same alias file (I have one for each domain). I also want only one router for each domain.
If you have a router doing a lookup in an alias file, just lookup the $original_local_part first and then the $local_part, as $original_local_part holds the entire address with the suffix (aka subaddress):
  data = ${lookup {$local_part$local_part_suffix@$domain} nwildlsearch {/cfg/aliases} {$value}\
        {${lookup {$local_part@$domain}                   nwildlsearch {/cfg/aliases} {$value}}}}

Then in the alias file, just add a line for the sub-addresses you want to reject:
joe-spammy@example.com: :fail: no such user, too much spam
joe@example.com: realaddress@realdomain.com

So if exim finds the subaddress ("joe-spammy@example.com") in the first search, it will handle it (fail it in my example), but if not then the first lookup will fail and cause the second to search for just the local part ("joe@example.com") and find and accept/redirect that. If there is no subaddress on the current address, it may just match in the first lookup.

Hearts and stars are used as symbols for many of the saints. On their feastdays you might like to try cake magic made possible by semi-sweet chocolate morsels. Very little work or added ingredients are needed to make expert decorations. It does require time to do the work successfully, though. Semi-sweet chocolate morsels are the same little pieces of chocolate that are used to make authentic chocolate chip cookies, just as they originated at the Toll House in Whitman, Massachusetts.
We give instructions here for hearts, but the recipe can be used with different cookie cutters also. You will find cut-out hearts of semi-sweet chocolate easy to make for your child's cake. In no more time than it takes to translate hope into reality, you will have a jaunty little row of chocolate silhouette hearts.
Made with only two ingredients, the chocolate morsels and shortening, these hearts require only metal cookie cutters with a good cutting edge and a length of aluminum foil. You will have enough chocolate hearts from this recipe to decorate a big pink-frosted cake, and an auxiliary flotilla of cupcakes.
To make semi-sweet chocolate heart cakes, have ready two 9-inch cake layers and twenty medium cupcakes. (The cake pans also come in a heart shape.) For the frosting prepare one and a half times the recipe for a standard butter frosting. For St. Valentine's day you might tint pale pink with one or two drops of red food coloring. Frost the sides and tops of the 9-inch layers and the cupcakes.
Combine and melt over hot (not boiling) water 1 cup (6-ounce package) of semi-sweet chocolate morsels and 2 tablespoons of vegetable shortening. Spread evenly with the back of a spoon in a 15 x 10 pan lined with aluminum foil. Chill until firm, approximately 20 minutes. Invert carefully on a 15 x 12 cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Gently peel off the foil. Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, 2 inches across at the widest point, cut 32 hearts (reverse direction of every other heart). Then with a cutter 21/2 inches across at its widest point cut 4 hearts (reverse direction). Rechill until firm enough to handle, approximately 5 minutes.
To decorate, place 4 large hearts on top of the frosted layer cake. Place twelve small hearts around the side of the layer cake. Put 1 small heart on each cupcake.

NEW YORK, Wednesday—New things are pouring in on me these days. I find the young are getting more attention. A magazine, called "World Horizons," for adolescent young people, has come to my desk. The cover is colorful enough to attract any youngster and the material seems interesting to both young and old. One article struck me particularly because it was about a sculptor, with whose Indian statues I was very familiar, but whose name, Cyrus Dallin, meant nothing to me. After reading his story, so delightfully told, I came to the conclusion that just giving information of this kind would make a magazine worthwhile for young people as well as for me.
Do you ever find that something you hear about today, puts you in close touch with some entirely unexpected person tomorrow? I walked into the Steinway Building the other morning and was taken up to see the members of the firm and our friend Mr. Junge. After the first greetings, Mr. Steinway said to me:
"I have a boy at Bard College near your home, and we are so much interested in it because of his interest and pleasure in his work there."
Only last week, at Hyde Park, one of my country friends, Mrs. Hamm, who has a marvelous roadside stand on the Albany Post Road, came to see me and begged me to help them keep this small college open because it meant so much to their community. I confess I had never thought of it from the community point of view.
She explained that up as far as Hudson and down as far as Poughkeepsie, this college served the people of the countryside. The professors made speeches at local club meetings. The people Bard College brought from the outside world for lectures or for music, created opportunities of interest to everyone. The college gave work to people nearby and trade to the shops, but it was really the loss it would mean in cultural opportunities which stirred the whole rural community. One thing the College music department has done, for instance, is to draw numbers of people in to sing in a neighborhood chorus. This has brought pleasure to the participants and an increased appreciation of music.
It seems to me that when a small college means enough to its people and the countryside, for them to go out and raise money to keep it open, as Mr. Steinway tells me his boy and other pupils and people are doing, it is fulfilling its educational function so well it deserves the interest of the public. I hope the college will also receive a measure of outside support.

2014 Hans Herzog Pinot Noir
Aged six years before release to the market... no Pinot in the country will likely outlive Hans Herzog in the cellar.
Hans Herzog
Organically Grown
Aged six years before release to the market... no Pinot in the country will likely outlive Hans Herzog in the cellar. We tried the 2006 last year (2018) at their Michelin-quality restaurant and it looks to have at least another decade in it. Hans makes hand crafted wines in the truest sense... his vines are fastidiously and organically managed, the fruit handpicked, and hand sorted, the winemaking a mix of traditional Burgundian and best features of the New World, and all without regard to expense. In fact, his fruit yields are so low it does not make financial sense. We are very fortunate Hans & Therese Herzog left behind 500-years of wine growing lineage in Switzerland to begin again in Marlborough over two decades ago. Unfettered by commercial considerations Hans adopts an experimentalist stance, producing highly acclaimed, age worthy wines rich in in varietal character. True to the adage: quality over quantity. A force of experience in winemaking and viticulture, the varietal specialist is one of the country's most respected winemakers and his famed wines have stolen hearts all over the world.
Classic Burgundian mix of sweet and savoury aromas revealing the benefits of 6-years in the bottle.
Pinot Noir for the purest and a nod to Burgundy with its sweet/savoury palate littered with subtle spices, very fine oak, red and black fruits and elegant savoury complexities. The tannins are compact and gently mouth coating and the natural acidity rounds out a beautifully made and balanced Pinot Noir. 6-years aging has already been done for you, so start enjoying now, no hurry, save a bottle or two to enjoy 2035! It deserves to be opened with a special meal, lightly spiced game dishes come to mind.

The Imitation Game and The Theory of Everything… Successful and Forgettable Oscar Bait
February 24, 2015 · by Benson the Dog	· in Active Observation.	·
In case you were wondering which Oscars handed out this Sunday will not survive the scrutiny nor test of time, look no further than Graham Moore's Adapted Screenplay win for The Imitation Game and Eddie Redmayne's Best Actor triumph in The Theory of Everything.
Neither film was an actual great movie. They were both Academy Award Flavored products. If fine films like The Grand Budapest Hotel or Whiplash were butter, then these two were margarine.
Yet their awards were not exactly surprises. They punched the right buttons and gave the audience the impression they were seeing something profound, intelligent, important and of high quality without actually possessing any of those attributes.
I had the surreal experience of watching the two films on back to back evenings. An editor could have intercut scenes from Imitation and Theory and I probably wouldn't have noticed the difference. It felt less like a cinematic experience and more like I was playing Oscar Bingo.
Each film had a card filled with Academy Award clichés to be quickly checked off as they progressed.
British Cast! Got it.
Jumping back and forth in time! Both.
Period piece. Yup.
Bizarrely asexual love story. Both cards.
Strong women who give speeches telling us how strong they are. Go Felicity and Keira!
Sometimes sinister British character actor in the supporting cast hoping to ride the coattails to a nomination. Charles Dance and David Thewlis ready and reporting.
Brilliant protagonist with some psychological or physical barrier. Both have it.
Oh, World War II? BINGO! Imitation Game has Bingo!
The script for Imitation Game was standard biopic fare that 10 or 15 years ago would have been a mediocre offering on HBO. The film is not bad, just not terribly memorable.
Benedict Cumberbatch twitches and stares at equipment and acts very Spock-like while spouting scientific jargon that nobody–not the writer, director or audience–can understand. But you know he's smart because he stares at inanimate objects closely while fast piano music plays.
If the scientific jargon becomes too complex, then something quirky happens to distract the audience and not make everyone feel stupid that they can't keep up with a genius.
Yet the film became important anyway because of the brilliant Oscar campaign launched by the Weinstein Company. Instead of focusing on the movie itself, Alan Turing's neglected historical legacy was all they talked about.
"Oh you like computers? Did you know Alan Turing invented them in a barn ALL BY HIMSELF?"
"You're glad the Nazis didn't win World War II? Have you thanked Alan Turing lately?"
"You never heard of him? No doubt because he was gay. Do YOU have a problem with being gay?"
Bam! You're practically a Nazi-loving homophobe hypocritically using a computer if you DON'T vote for the movie.
In lieu of glowing critics' notices, quotes from computer company executives stressing Turing's importance were included in the advertisements, and quotes from historians praising Turing's achievements were on the poster.
Even Graham Moore's acceptance speech at the Oscars stressed that Turing was not rewarded in his lifetime. The Academy wasn't honoring the Adapted Screenplay so much as Turing's memory.
The script itself has come under fire for playing fast and loose with some of the facts, according to Slate.com. Turing's role was not as solitary as the film suggests. Turing's collaborator Gordon Welchman was cut from the film entirely. And Cumberbatch's performance as a socially incompetent, closested homosexual evidently was not accurate. In truth Turing was socially extroverted and open with his sexuality. Even the stuffy British military officials determined to shut down the project were, in reality, close allies.
Why did his already dramatic story need such embellishment? Well, a standard biopic would not be dramatic enough if Turing were a confident homosexual collaborating with well-meaning people. And while audiences are accepting of a troubled gay character, showing the beloved Sherlock being full on confident gay might have been hard to sell.
Besides, Turing's story was obscure enough that it could hit the standard biopic notes to great acclaim. And remember, a vote against the film is a vote against Alan Turing, whether real or fictionalized.
Meanwhile, Eddie Redmayne is now an Oscar winning actor. Sigourney Weaver has no Oscar. Glenn Close has no Oscar. Alan Rickman has no nomination. But Redmayne has inserted himself into "how did HE win an Oscar?" lists for all time.
Is Redmayne a good actor? I actually do not know. The only role I saw him play before The Theory of Everything was Marius, the single most boring character in Les Miserables. Marlon Brando circa 1955 couldn't make that part interesting.
Was he good as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything? I have no idea. He acted like he had Lou Gehrig's disease. His glasses were crooked. He looked wistfully at the sky. He smiled that half grin while sitting in the wheelchair. He stared into coffee and saw how the universe was constructed.
He NAILED Stephen Hawking's computerized voice.
All during the movie, I kept hearing Robert Downey Jr. telling Ben Stiller never to go "full retard" in Tropic Thunder. Of course Hawking is the opposite of the proverbial cinematic "retard." But the Oscar acclaim seemed to be rewarding Redmayne's physical acting rather than any compelling character he created.
Compare the Imitation script and Redmayne's performance with the vastly superior Selma screenplay and David Oyelowo's complex performance as Dr. King, one that avoided the traps of an impersonation.
Had Selma had the Weinstein publicity machine behind it, with ballots going out on Martin Luther King Day and in the wake of Ferguson, voting for it would have been a civic duty. A much easier sell than forcing us to learn about Alan Turing.
So if you want to win, make sure to play Oscar bingo with your script and your lead. There is a provable theory of nominations. And imitation is the way to win that game.

title: Relational Aesthetics (The Institutional Theory + Suspension of Judgement -
  Radical Commitment) [via Rhizome RAW]
wordpress_id: 899
categories:
- Aesthetics
---

The trained seal of approval that is Relational Aesthetics (The Institutional Theory + Suspension Of Judgement - Radical Commitment) is unlikely to get its coat based on the chinstroking of Octoberistas. Pointing out that there is someone behind the curtain doesn't help. That someone still has social relations.

Despite Bourriaud's protestatations, RA is deeply, achingly, embarrasingly managerial. It is the managerial mode of regard embodied in materials that managers recognise: assets, particularly human assets.

And RA is auratic. Because without the aura of management -uh- art, what differentiates the social and aesthetic incompetence of RA from just actual social and aesthetic incompetence?

Both these qualities can only increase if people need their passports or whatever as part of the beautific images of managerialism that RA give us as works. Managers' egos will not be deflated by an "art" of ever stronger management of Real People in ever more tighly controlled additions (or revelations) of managerial value (or power) in social situations.

[Bishop](http://roundtable.kein.org/node/202)'s assessment of British art criticism in the 1990s is depressingly accurate but there is an account of art from that time that gives us something to work with. Julian Stallabrass's concept of the Urban Pastoral (from "High Art Lite") is far too close to the bone of RA to leave unused.

Five counties and one city in the Bay area region have decided to put the stay at home order in place, even before the region falls below 15% ICU bed capacity, which is the threshold the state requires for further restrictions.

PACIFIC GROVE, Calif. —
Five counties and one city in the Bay area region have decided to put the stay at home order in place, even before the region falls below 15% ICU bed capacity, which is the threshold the state requires for further restrictions.

TOLEDO (WTOL) - A mild night is expected with low temperatures near 20 degrees.
Light snow will develop Thursday and will affect the afternoon commute. Temperatures will be near 32 degrees, which can create very slippery conditions on roads.
Accumulations into the night: 1 inch to 2 inches.
Friday will provide a break from wintry weather. It will be mostly cloudy with highs near 32 degrees.
Saturday will bring snow with blowing and drifting through the afternoon and evening. Accumulations over 6 inches will be possible with higher drifts. Check for more specific forecasts as the weekend draws near.
It will be windy and bitterly cold Sunday and Monday; dangerous wind chills are likely.
Tuesday and Wednesday next week will bring a chance of more accumulating snow.


The short film Plot Device is, admittedly, an ad. Produced by software maker Red Giant to show off the capabilities of the company's Magic Bullet Suite 11, the film puts a mysterious object — a Plot Device — into the hands of a would-be filmmaker. When activated, the device turns reality into cinema, full of unexpected twists, unwelcome action, and alien goop. (And a couple Garden State rejects, just to make sure all bases are covered.) In short, this is a nine-minute movie that races through a half-dozen film genres, and does so with humor and panache. Check it out below.
"Plot Device," a nine minute short film directed by Seth Worley, and executive produced by Red Giant's own Aharon Rabinowitz. Aharon and Seth co-wrote the film, working together in close collaboration throughout the project. Plot Device was created to demonstrate first hand the high caliber work that can be created when using Magic Bullet Suite 11, even on a limited budget.

One of the things that I've learned when it comes to blogging, is to always stick to the rule "quality before quantity", so I always make sure I'm 100% satisfied with photos in order to post them here on Magnifique. Of course there are times when the photos look absolutely amazing on set, but completely different afterwards on the computer and in such situation, we hope that Photoshop would do its magic and we won't have to ditch the photos. But there are also times when photos turn out to be even better and that's exactly what happened with this shoot. The location, the styling, the light, everything seem to work perfectly together, creating this little turquoise story, so I must say I'm really pleased with the final result and happy to kick off the new week with such colorful post!
I can only say that I love it!!!!!
beautiful outfit and color mix!
love it !!! the palette of blue are my fav !!!
I will be very honour if you check my blog !!!
So simple but yet so chic! Prelep kaput!
Love the look and the photos! Such a pretty dress!


While memoirs are usually presented in chronological order, you don't have to write the contents that way. Start writing what feels most important to you. You can fill in sections as you go.
Know when to respect your own personal boundaries, and when to push yourself just a bit. It's okay to do some emotional work as you write, seeking to understand your past experiences in context with your current life. You get to choose where your boundaries are before publication.
In many cases, the details of your everyday life are exactly the sorts of detail your readers will want most. What was "everyday" for you at different points in life? What got you through? What skills did you add? How much did things cost? These details may seem too common to include, but they can add very relatable details for your readers.

If #3 happens, I can no longer post financial commentary, and I will only be posting outside of business hours (which I rarely do already). Select individuals can feel free to PM me (most know who you are already), but it will be very limited and mostly offline (ie phone).
I'm stoked for however this falls out, but I'm pseudo scared ****less.
#3 is confirmed, details tonight. Double my pay is the starting point of this story.
ponzi scheme the second part?
I accepted a position at a major wall street investment bank today. I will be working in institutional equity sales. It doubles my base, which is what I am really excited about. I will be travelling almost daily on zero notice, and I need to be at my desk at 3:50am, but that's the cost of business.

congrats but....how long will the wife enjoy the new hours?
congrats stoney. you win the most egotistical monkey award. well done, there was stiff competition.
Look out Barney's here you come! You'll need 12 custom made shirts and at least 6 pair of new shoes - nobody trusts anybody in finance who wears the same shoes twice in one week; it's a deal breaker.
She understands the need, plus when we do have kids I will be getting off work at 2pm. I will be able to get them from daycare, etc while she is at work meaning more time with the kids in whole. Win-win.
More wishful thinking from Finance.
I think you are being a little tough, he did accurately predict both sunrise and sunset!
When are you scheduled to testify?
But damn I do not understand finance. What is so go damned important that stuff will suddenly crop up like that?
I can understand when it comes to "real things"....stuff breaking, people bleeding etc....but finance is completely made up. Where's the fire?
I hope this promotion means you can now buy that vacation chalet in Whistler for all of us 2 help you enjoy!
Sweet, congrats!! Is the plant to do this long-term, or to make as much money in the next 5-7 years before semi-retiring and doing something that provides fulfillment and quality time with the kids? I'm a big fan of "suffering now so that you can enjoy life later", but most of the financial guys (or lawyers) that I know end up getting accustomed to the lifestyle and toys that go along with the big money and spend their lives just chasing more and more and more.
Assuming that this is a national firm, any thoughts on moving to the East coast so you only have to be at work at 6:50am instead of 3:50am?
This is the only good thing I can see coming out of his new position.
Is the plan to do this long-term, or to make as much money in the next 5-7 years before semi-retiring and doing something that provides fulfillment and quality time with the kids? I'm a big fan of "suffering now so that you can enjoy life later"
That was my brothers plan too. His reward for giving up the 'now' for the 'future' was pancreatic cancer @ 42 years old. At least his daughter can remember all the things they wanted to do together.
All I want to do when I'm old is sip booze from a glass jar and shake my cane at youngin's. You're only able to do some things while young and trading life experiences for financial gain is a fool's game.
Quoted for truth. Life is short man. I should have been dead @ 28 except for some luck and some great Docs. Live today like its your last, cause it might be. Never know when you might get hit by a volkswagon. After my accident my priorites change pretty dramatically. I work a max 40 hour week and spend every spare minute doing fun isht and hanging with the family. Sure more $$ would be nice sometimes but I don't belive the tradeoff is worth it.
Congrats and good luck and better you than me!
I'd recommend that you not have kids as they'll either be raised by the nanny or the illegal housekeeper, but you type A types like to produce little carbon copies of yourself.
Best of luck in your new gig. It does sound like it's something you really like to do. I envy you that.
Wow, the haterade must have kicked in at the end there.
At least if you finish work at 2PM you have plenty of sunlight for RIDING!!
Good for you, best of luck with that.
But still, in my mind's race for worst humans on earth between finace brokers and lawyers, it's still too close to call.
But don't you think it was masterful how he ratcheted up the tension by providing 2 non-existent options? I know I bit my fingernails to the quick the tension was so unbearable. TO THE QUICK!
Thanks. The plan is to do this as long as possible. Unlike trading or banking, the burnout rate in sales is pretty low, and the pay is not in ludicrous range. I don't plan on moving to the East Coast, as sales is relationships and I will have West Coast accounts.
I am super pumped about the ability to ride after work though. I could not before due to a combination of the hours from work, lack of time due to having to manually do many chores as I was not getting paid enough to have them done for me. Now I will have both the time, and funds to just buy back time. As horrible as that sounds, if I can spend $500/m to buy back 10-12 hours per month, I'm doing it.
Congrats man. It doesn't sound like something I'd dig (money aside) but if its what you want then good dealio.
Thanks. . Now I will have both the time, and funds to just buy back time. As horrible as that sounds, if I can spend $500/m to buy back 10-12 hours per month, I'm doing it.
Thats the price to rip sweet trails brah.
Gonna get a new fleet of yetis?
What's the rationale for 3:50am start time for sales to west coast accounts?
Genuinely curious. Unless you're selling retirement plans to Circle K night cashiers, who the hell is up at that hours and buying financial products?
