Joanne Sale: Artist Update
We caught up with Joanne Sale to find out what she has been working on while in residence at the Caetani centre.
"I've been mainly working with the theme of endangered species/climate change for the past year and a half.
The larger works that I've produced in that time have included a series of images carved into stained plywood, a lino print wallpaper installation, a large freestanding tower papercut (of sorts), and I am in the early stages of a furniture piece and a video projection piece."
"As I've been working on these, I have also been creating smaller lino prints and etchings, some directly related to the theme and some not. These are the smaller pieces that I have for sale.
Works for sale can be seen here:

"Right now I have an installation (Extinction Wallpaper) up at the Victoria Arts Council Gallery in downtown Victoria until February 28 (group exhibition called eco:echo)
Starting in April I will be in a group exhibition in Prince George at Two Rivers Gallery. That one is called All For Water, and is themed around the protection of freshwater. In this exhibition, I'll have one of my carved pieces which I have made since starting this series of residencies, and two other large paintings made a couple of years before that, all of which depict sturgeon."
Joanne Salé earned her BFA from UBC-Okanagan in 2005, where she worked in sculpture, drawing, etching, and painting. She has had solo exhibitions and been included in group exhibitions throughout the province.
The themes that emerge in my work are primarily perception, mediation, connection, adaptation and longing.
In the past few years, my concern about the accelerating rate of species extinction has become the forefront in my mind, causing me to think about not just the interconnectedness of life, but what happens when species within this vast network become absent.
I have started to create a new body of work, collectively titled Falling, which points to the complexity and beauty of the natural world, and simultaneously grieves the destruction that we are bringing upon it.
The various species of animals and plants depicted in Falling are taken from the Canadian Species at Risk Act list.
The first pieces that I have created in this new body of work consist of stained plywood, which I have carved images into, using the tonal variation in the plywood to enhance the images. They depict the interconnected web, which appears often in my work, paired with images of falling animals and plants.
Extinction Wallpaper is a large scale lino print in six sections, which can be complete as one panel, and has also been designed to tessellate, enabling it to be used to paper a larger area. It depicts various arthropods from the Canadian Species at Risk Act list as well as a falling chestnut tree that are layered with a wallpaper pattern. I first used wallpaper symbolically in my work in 2002, to represent something that is fundamentally present but is not necessarily consciously observed.
Network Tower is a large five-sided structure covered in a material that has been cut, in the style of a papercut, to depict interconnected lines and falling species. It is lined with dressmaker's pattern tissue and lit internally.


One of our most popular features is Entity Recognition and Disambiguation, the ability to identify key people, places, organizations, and other things mentioned in your documents. The system works well out of the box, leveraging a number of data sources and advanced machine learning methods to ensure comprehensive Entity coverage across many different languages and styles of writing.
Sometimes your application might need to identify Entities that aren't common enough for TextRazor to know about - niche Product names, Drug names, or specific person names for example. TextRazor's new Custom Entity Dictionaries make it possible to upload large lists of your own entities, which TextRazor will seamlessly identify in your documents and return with the other entities it has found.
The new feature is fully integrated with the rest of our analysis functionality. Simply create your Dictionary through the REST API or one of our SDKs, and add its ID to your analysis requests. Where the engine matches one of your Entities, it will be returned as part of the usual Entity response. Dictionaries have a number of options that control the matching process, see the documentation for more details.
The system can be used to augment the TextRazor response with a few entities that it misses in your domain, or it can be used to create large dictionaries containing millions of niche entities. Either way, the system takes care of scaling and indexing so there's minimal increase to processing time.
Custom Entity Dictionaries are ready to use immediately. We'd love to hear any feedback you might have on this.

There were reports of a number of bone deformities and crippled people in areas surrounding Patripal village of Remuna block. They seemed to be related to fluoride in water, causing a disease called Skeletal Fluorosis.
The problem was that Government data seemed to indicate the entire Balasore district to be free from fluoride (See above figure). But how then were people getting crippled? This started a journey for the MP from Balasore, Rabindra Kumar Jena.

James Corner: a middle aged Yorkshireman fond of photography, walking and the countryside.
I started my first blog in 2012 as a convenient way to keep family and friends informed of my progress during an eight week long walk; the length of England from Land's End to the Scottish border near Berwick-upon-Tweed. (See LEBUT 2012) Having two daughters living hundreds of miles away, a wide group of friends dotted around the country and not being a fan of social networking sites, I started Country Corners on my return to share a few experiences and observations with friends and family.


Do you know what direction your life is going? Do you feel as if you have a choice?
Coincidentally, many of the books I've been picking up lately have featured a heroine in her late twenties still trying to get her life together. Is God trying to tell me something? Despite feeling this way myself sometimes, I happen to, in fact, feel as if I am where I am supposed to be in life at this very moment. What if I had another choice though? What if one small decision I made allowed my life to veer in a completely different direction than I expected.
Taylor Jenkins Reid allows her readers to explore this possibility with Maybe in Another Life. The main character, Hannah, has spent her twenties adrift, working meaningless jobs in different cities, and moving to new places when the mood strikes. Feeling as if she should begin settling down, Hannah decides to try her luck in her hometown of Los Angeles by moving into the guest room of her best friend, Gabby. When Hannah and Gabby spend a night on the town, Hannah's life comes down to one moment: Staying at the bar with her ex-boyfriend Ethan, or heading back home with Gabby.
Taylor Jenkins Reid is a master of teaching important lessons while creating absolutely captivating stories about life, love, and tough decisions. After reading One True Loves earlier this year, I have been on a mission to catch up on all of Reid's novels I have missed out on. In a short time, she has become one of my favorite authors because of her impressive storytelling and page-turning romances.
In concurrent story-lines, readers are able to experience how one, seemingly simple decision could spur the future into hosting completely different realities. Maybe in Another Life reminded me of the Choose your own Adventure stories I loved as a child. Fortunately, this story allowed for the best of both worlds because I didn't have to choose the ending I thought would be best. Instead, I got to have two for the price of one. I'm thankful for this unexpected direction in the story, for without it, I would have been completely torn in how I would have wanted the novel to play out. This happened to be one of the most unique stories I have ever read, which made it all the more enjoyable. These days with all of the books I have under my belt, it's difficult to find a story that I have never read before, and Maybe in Another Life definitely fit the bill.
I can't wait to read and review more of Taylor Jenkins Reid's novels in the future. I highly doubt there will be one that I don't love. If you've yet to check out this title, don't wait any longer!

Q: How do I select all from a nested array of JSON objects? I have a PostgreSQL table with each row containing JSON objects that look something like this:
{
   "Metadata":{
      ...
   },
   "NestedArray":[
      {
         ...,
         ...,
         "Coordinates":[
            {
               "id":"1000",
               "X":"...",
               "Y":"..."
            },
            {
               "id":"1001",
               "X":"...",
               "Y":"..."
            },
            {
               "id":"1003",
               "X":"...",
               "Y":"..."
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}

So each object contains a NestedArray, which contains another nested array called  Coordinates.
MyObject.NestedArray[].Coordinates[]

What I'm trying to do is query a JSON column in my PostgreSQL table that contains objects such as the one above, and get a resultset of all Coordinates objects.
So this is essentially what I want to end up with:

id
X
Y

1001
.
.

1002
.
.

1003
.
.

1004
.
.

1005
.
.

1006
.
.

How do I go about doing this?

A: I don't think that jsonb_array_elements() will work in this case because there are two nested levels of json arrays. This should be tested intead :
SELECT r.item ->> 'id' as id
     , r.item ->> 'X' as X
     , r.item ->> 'Y' as Y
FROM your_table
CROSS JOIN LATERAL jsonb_path_query(your_json_column :: jsonb, '$.NestedArray[*].Coordinates[*]') AS r(item)

A: You need to unnest the array, then you can access each key using the ->> operator:
select e.item ->> 'id' as id,
       e.item ->> 'x' as x,
       e.item ->> 'y' as y
from the_table
  cross join jsonb_array_elements(the_column -> 'NestedArray') as c(o)
  cross join jsonb_array_elements(c.o -> 'Coordinates') as e(item)

This assumes that the_column is defined with the data type jsonb (which it should be). If it's not use json_array_elements() instead.

Home / Criminal Defence
In the field of criminal law, there are a variety of conditions that will tend to negate elements of a crime (particularly the intent element), known as defences. The label may be apt in jurisdictions where the accused may be assigned some burden before a tribunal. However, in many jurisdictions, the entire burden to prove a crime is on the government, which also must prove the absence of these defences, where implicated. In other words, in many jurisdictions the absence of these so-called defences is treated as an element of the crime. So-called defences may provide partial or total refuge from punishment.
Insanity or mental disorder may negate the intent of any crime, although it pertains only to those crimes having an intent element. A variety of rules have been advanced to define what, precisely, constitutes criminal insanity. The most common definitions involve either an actor's lack of understanding of the wrongfulness of the offending conduct, or the actor's inability to conform conduct to the law. If one succeeds in being declared "not guilty by reason of insanity," then the result frequently is treatment in a mental hospital, although some jurisdictions provide the sentencing authority with flexibility.
Automatism is a state where the muscles act without any control by the mind, or with a lack of consciousness. One may suddenly fall ill, into a dream like state as a result of post traumatic stress, or even be "attacked by a swarm of bees" and go into an automatic spell. However to be classed as an "automaton" means there must have been a total destruction of voluntary control, which does not include a partial loss of consciousness as the result of driving for too long. Where the onset of loss of bodily control was blameworthy, e.g., the result of voluntary drug use, it may be a defence only to specific intent crimes.
In some jurisdictions, intoxication may negate specific intent, a particular kind of mens rea applicable only to some crimes. For example, lack of specific intent might reduce murder to manslaughter. Voluntary intoxication nevertheless often will provide basic intent, e.g., the intent required for manslaughter. On the other hand, involuntarily intoxication, for example by punch spiked unforeseeably with alcohol, may give rise to no inference of basic intent.
Strictly speaking, however, it could be argued that intoxication is not a defence, but a denial of mens rea; the main difference being that a defence accepts the mens rea and actus reus of an offence are present. With intoxication, there is no acceptance of the mens rea of the offence. For offences of basic intent, the act itself is criminalised. All that is needed is the intent to do the act. It can therefore be inferred that there is such intent relatively easily; when intoxicated one is not an auto meter – there is still control of one's actions. Therefore, intoxication will rarely (if ever) deny the mens rea of crimes of basic intent. With specific intent, the character of the act is criminalised, for the act itself is often objectively innocent. Appropriation of an item is perfectly innocent, yet when one appropriates with the intent to permanently deprive the owner of it, there is a theft. This is much more difficult to prove beyond reasonable doubt, for an intoxicated person may exercise control over his actions but will often lack an understanding of what is being done – without this understanding the necessary intent cannot be proven. Therefore, whilst it is tempting to think of intoxication as a defence, it is more accurate to see it as a denial of the mens rea of an offence – where the mens rea or actus reus is not proven, there is no need for defences.
"I made a mistake" is a defence in some jurisdictions if the mistake is about a fact and is genuine. The defence is most often used in conjunction with another defence, where the mistake led the defendant to believe that their actions were justifiable under the second defence. For example, a charge of assault on a police officer may be negated by genuine (and perhaps reasonable) mistake of fact that the person the defendant assaulted was a criminal and not an officer, thus allowing a defence of use of force to prevent a violent crime (generally part of self-defence/defence of person).
Necessity/Lesser Harm
An overarching theory of criminal defences is the doctrine of necessity. Generally speaking, a criminal act can be justifiable if it is necessary to prevent a foreseeable and greater harm than the harm created by the act. For instance, trespassing is generally justified if the defendant only trespassed in order to, for instance, instantaneously attempt to put out a fire on the property, or to rescue someone drowning in a pool on the property. The destruction or death caused by following the law and not trespassing would have been far greater than the harm caused by trespassing. Similarly, most laws forbidding the discharge of firearms in public contain an exception for emergency or defensive use. Necessity generally forms the basis for many other defences and their favour, such as capacity of office, legal duty and self-defence.
Lawful Capacity of Office
This defence is generally available to public servants and first responders such as police officers, fire fighters, EMTs etc. It usually protects the first responder from responsibility for otherwise criminal actions that the first responder must perform as an appointed agent of the jurisdiction in the course and scope of their duties. For example, a paramedic who forcibly enters a house or building in answer to an emergency call cannot be charged with breaking and entering. A judge who sentences a man to die for a crime cannot be charged with attempted murder if the convicted man is later exonerated. Such protection is generally limited to acts required in the course and scope of employment and it does not preclude gross negligence or malicious intent.
Legal Duty
This "lawful capacity of office" defence can also apply to civilians who do not hold such a position, but whose assistance is requested by someone who does, such as a police officer. A person who witnesses a criminal being chased by police who yell "stop that man!", and obliges resulting in injury to the criminal, cannot be charged with assault or sued for personal injury. "Good Samaritan" laws generally provide immunity in civil and criminal proceedings to persons who, in good faith, cause injury while attempting to help a person in distress, protecting such persons even in cases where greater harm resulted from the action than would have occurred otherwise.
Self-defence is, in general, some reasonable action taken in protection of self. An act taken in self-defence often is not a crime at all; no punishment will be imposed. To qualify, any defensive force must be proportionate to the threat. Use of a firearm in response to a non-lethal threat is a typical example of disproportionate force; however, such decisions are dependent on the situation and the applicable law, and thus the example situation can in some circumstances be defensible, Generally, because of a codified presumption intended to prevent the unjust negation of this defence by the Trier of fact.
One who is "under duress" is forced into an unlawful act. Duress can be a defence in many jurisdictions, although not for the most serious crimes of murder, attempted murder, being an accessory to murder and in many countries, treason. The duress must involve the threat of imminent peril of death or serious injury, operating on the defendant's mind and overbearing his will. Threats to third persons may qualify. The defendant must reasonably believe the threat, and there is no defence if "a sober person of reasonable firmness, sharing the characteristics of the accused" would have responded differently. Age, pregnancy, physical disability, mental illness, sexuality have been considered, although basic intelligence has been rejected as a criterion.
The accused must not have foregone some safe avenue of escape. The duress must have been an order to do something specific, so that one cannot be threatened with harm to repay money and then choose to rob a bank to repay it. If one puts themselves in a position where they could be threatened, duress may not be a viable defence.

No matter how long ago your prom was, it's a fair bet that you remember the excitement (and anxiety) around prom-dress shopping. Today's teens are no different there, though we found some very interesting statistics about today's prom-goers via Statistic Brain. First off, the average teen spends about $195 on a prom dress these days—which doesn't sound too unreasonable, though the amount of total cash spent tells a different tale. West Coast teens apparently spend the most on prom—averaging $1,125, including including money for a ticket, limo rental, dinner beforehand, etc. Now that, on the other hand, seems excessive. Does the $195 number surprise you? How does it compare with what you remember paying for your dress? PS: Don't forget the high school that's making all of its female students get dresses preapproved, via photo, before the big night. PPS: Love the dress? It's ASOS.

This is the traditional service that most people have access to in their home and business. It is the rare company that does not spend sizeable sums of money paying local and long distance service bills. Before the introduction of mobile phones and data services, long distance and international call charges were typically the largest telecommunications expense in a firm. While competition and changing technology have reduced the magnitude of the expense, it is still a significant outlay for business.
By identifying programs that best suit your calling patterns and volume requirements, you should be able to save anywhere from 5 to 35% off your current bill.
This buying guide is designed to give you the facts you need to select the right carrier for your firm.
Prior to 1987 voice services in Australia was a monopoly provided by three government enterprises Telecom (now Telstra), OTC (Overseas Telecommunications Commission absorbed into Telstra) and Aussat. In 1987 the government introduced the first steps to a competitive environment with the establishment of an independent regulator Austel and allowing competition in value added services.
The Telecommunications Act of 1991 restructured the Australian telecommunications industry to provide for two full service (voice, mobile and data) carriers - Telecom and Optus. The 1991 Act also determined that Vodafone would be the third mobile provider. Optus purchased Aussat and initially used Telecom infrastructure to begin its operations while building its own network infrastructure. At the same time, the Government directed that the GSM standard for mobiles should be used by all three mobile carriers.
In 1993 a number of companies began to buy wholesale network services from the full service carriers and retail disaggregated services to business customers. The largest of these resellers was Axicorp which was purchased in 1996.
In the past few years, the long distance market has continued to become more competitive. Excess network capacity has allowed smaller carriers/resellers to lease high quality long distance lines at low rates. This has placed downward pressure on rates offered by all the carriers, particularly for smaller businesses.
The players in the voice services market can be categorized into three major tiers. Telstra and Optus are the full service tier 1 telephone companies (often referred to as carriers) with their own infrastructure. Telstra with its legacy of previously being the only provider, holds the largest market share and relies heavily on advertising and promotions to market to business and customers. Together with large direct sales force and a multitude of channel partners both these companies are the dominant players in the industry.
A second tier of carriers consists of companies that may have some network infrastructure (eg network switches at strategic Points of Presence (POPs), DSLAMs for broadband services and IP switches to offer value added services to specific market segments) but still rely on resale of Telstra and Optus services. These include companies like Powertel, AAPT and do not offer the breadth of service of the big two.
A third tier of companies consist of many smaller firms with a more regional or local focus. These firms almost always act as agents for the tier 1 and tier 2 carriers attracting customers using aggressive pricing, alliances or local sales reps, innovative bundling of network services with telephone systems and other products like Plasma TV s/IT equipment/photocopiers as well as multi-level marketing arrangements. Some of these companies have been very successful in quickly building a large customer base. While some of these resellers do not have the capability to offer the full range of value added services a business may require, others have relationships with a number of tier 1 carriers and can tailor the best solution for your business.
There are also consultants who, based on your telecommunications objectives, can analyse your phone bills and negotiate with the various carriers to deliver you the best value solution for your requirements.

Q: How to define a pipelined table function within a with statement? It's possible to defined a function within a with statement (How to define a function and a query in the same with block?). But I fail to define a pipelined function inside a with statement.
WITH
    FUNCTION f (a IN INTEGER)
        RETURN SYS.odcinumberlist
        PIPELINED
    IS
        ret   INTEGER;
    BEGIN
        FOR z IN 1 .. a
        LOOP
            PIPE ROW (z);
        END LOOP;

        RETURN;
    END;
SELECT * FROM f(3);  --I tried with table(f(3)) too

[Error] Execution (2: 1): ORA-06553: PLS-653: aggregate/table functions are not allowed in PL/SQL scope

Is it possible to define a pipelined table function within a with statement and how?
If it is possible, I would like to do that with a table of record. Therefore I need to know how defined type within a with statement too.

A: Within a subquery-factoring clause, you can make a non-pipelined function that returns a collection:
WITH FUNCTION f (a IN INTEGER)
  RETURN SYS.ODCINUMBERLIST
IS
  v_list SYS.ODCINUMBERLIST := SYS.ODCINUMBERLIST();
BEGIN
  FOR z IN 1 .. a LOOP
    v_list.EXTEND;
    v_list(v_list.COUNT) := z;
  END LOOP;
  RETURN v_list;
END f;
SELECT *
FROM   TABLE(f(3));

Which outputs:

COLUMN_VALUE

1

db<>fiddle here

If it is possible, I would like to do that with a table of record.

A record is a PL/SQL data type; you cannot use it in an SQL statement. Instead use an OBJECT data type and declare it in the global SQL scope before you run your query (no, you cannot declare it locally inside your query).

Therefore I need to know how defined type within a with statement too.

Again, you cannot as the SQL syntax does not allow it. See the answer to your previous question.
You can declare it globally:
CREATE TYPE test_obj IS OBJECT (
  w1 INTEGER
);

CREATE TYPE test_obj_table IS TABLE OF test_obj;

WITH FUNCTION f (a IN INTEGER)
  RETURN test_obj_table
IS
  v_list test_obj_table := test_obj_table();
BEGIN
  FOR z IN 1 .. a LOOP
    v_list.EXTEND;
    v_list(v_list.COUNT) := test_obj(z);
  END LOOP;
  RETURN v_list;
END f;
SELECT *
FROM   TABLE(f(3));

Outputs:

W1

## Better, better, better

After the downtime mentioned in [last week's weeknote 15](/notes/2021/weeknotes-15/), it was refreshing to return to work and get back into the swings of things at a pace that being set by myself. Paying attention to the first three rules are:

1. Am I rushing / jumping / typing too fast?
2. Am I understanding the task? Did I 'over read' it?
3. Am I okay? Are you processing everything rationally?

The training wheels are still on and no doubt it will continue to stay on for a week or so in order to form the new habits. It has been a lifetime skill to continuously keeping up with everything, it's okay if we are behind a bit of a way because we are paying attention to the upmost situation that we care deeply about.

After all, like the title of this segment. It's all about being better, better, better.

If you are already confuse what it is all about, it is sunscreen. Um... *checks paperwork*, yeah that's it. Oh wait, if you do remember the smell of sunscreen back in the 80s, this is it for you. Els, get sunscreen anyway to protect your skin from being burnt.

## And finally...

From The Expanse - Caliban's War to Abaddon's Gate, it is enjoyable to read and the current book has led me to rethink a lot about humanity among the stars. There has been some discussions in the past about when humans will truly be on Mars or the Moon.

Should we be resolving important issues on our home planet, Earth? The answer is that we cannot hold ourselves back as it will take a bold revolution to move forward.

Stay safe mon ami as Hercule Poirot would say...


Job fairs are usually rip offs. The ones I've attended were either scams or sales jobs. I found out the school job fair I attended was selling our names to the scams to boot. They are having one in October and I will give them a fake name.


← New laptop, windows free!!
rekong has also a new site. So, in case you are interested, please click there to read news (in a while) and to download source tarballs.
This entry was posted in international and tagged browser, kde, rekonq, webkit. Bookmark the permalink.
Congrats! Is the source code in a repository somewhere so we can see changes as they occur?
Thank you very much, Ben. Your congrats are appreciated.. twice!! In rekonq site I forgot to write about source code. I'm going to update it. That's because it's actually hosted on gitorious, but I'm planning to move into kde/playground.
Is this something you're interrested in for Rekonq ?
Yeah. I'll do it ASAP. This night, perhaps (UTC time..).
Sorry about that. I'm taking a look at your backtrace.. Anyway rekonq works well here on kde 4.2 branch.
Thanks! No need to sorry, keep rocking 😉 I'm just reporting.
rekonq(25410) SearchBar::SearchBar: setting fixed minimum width..
I think this is just fixed in master trunk.
Anyway, thank you very much for attention..
Nice work! I like the browser!
I created a nice (very) little article on your project. I also wrapped the thing up in a RPM. I also whipped up some quick screenshots in my post for the ones who are curious what it's supposed to look like.
Please get fonts (font sizes) working correctly. That is stopping me from using the browser. I currently use Arora, btw because font sizes are never an issue.
However, I would love to switch to rekonq but fonts are just too small on startup. Even if I increase them in settings dialog, they don't change by default.
Agree with Ken. This is great, real fast and clean. Most obvious thing from time it opens up is small font issue.
I was playing around with its options checking/uncheking menus, I tried unchecking all of them but now I'm not able to bring them back since I cannot right click anywhere..any suggestions on how to bring menus back?
Ciao, Lorenzo. Font issues will be solved in next release. Hopefully. About hided menus.. I think you need to manually edit your .kde4/share/config/apps/rekonqrc and remove disabled status/menu bar there. Will think about something .. "different" for future!!
yup, that did it. I just realized that I compiled rekonq while there actually is an rpm available for opensuse on the factory-community repository. Community beats me!
I'll be looking forward for next release.
Good news.. As I installed openSuse last week in my wife's notebook!!
well actually you'll nedd to add all the factory repositories to solve dependencies.
Yeah thanks, just fixed! Please, use sourceforge tracker (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=252277&atid=1126949) to report bugs.
i would like to try it out but i get an error when i try to compile it.
Looks like a Qt related problem. Could you provide some more information like your distro and your exact Qt version?


It's been a little while since I last posted, so I thought I'd make a new entry. I've actually been meaning to for a few days now, but I keep forgetting. It's been a little crazy, but things are calming down a little bit since I finished the Creativity project I was working on and turned in my story, which will be workshopped this Thursday. All the stress aside, I'm actually really enjoying the program so far.
In this section of "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird," the narrator seems to be commenting on two specific, very enjoyable things, with the intention of picking a clear winner. The first option is the beautiful inflection that is the blackbird's whistle/song. The second option is what happens at the end of the blackbird's song; by that I mean the process of reflecting back on the song, the beautiful, provocative thoughts and "innuendoes" that the song elicits.
In general terms, we can articulate the two options as (1) a particular event and (2) the moment(s) immediately following it. Indeed, the narrator is caught in between said event and its end, appreciating both immensely, as if he/she is in the center of an event horizon, where time and space play tricks, blending the narrator's two options together until they are nearly inseparable and indistinguishable. At that point, the narrator cannot possibly decide which option is better.
Thus, the narrator's indecisiveness about which to prefer—the song itself or the thought and innuendo that follow—dangerously takes the reader him/herself toward that event horizon. In such a case, the reader must be careful not to fall victim to the power of the event horizon, must steer clear of its center. The reader is invited to ponder on the song and the innuendo and decide which one is better (whatever "better" means, in this case). The reader must do all this without getting sucked into the event horizon, where the narrator is, where the reader would see everything the same way, at the same speed, losing the details that make one option stand out over the other.
If this were to happen, the reader would indeed be in the same boat as the narrator, and the process would begin again and again, for all of time, until a new reader could succeed where others had failed. Would the process ever stop? Or is the poem simply too interesting and powerful to be solved? At which point it would fade into the center of the event horizon of literature, where everything is the same and nothing is different. What do you think?


In 1876, Democrat Samuel Tilden ran for president against Republican Rutherford B. Hayes. On election night, it was clear that Tilden had won the popular vote, but it was also clear that votes in Florida, Louisiana, South Carolina and Oregon were fraudulent because of voter intimidation. Republicans knew that if the electoral votes from these four states were thrown out, Hayes would win. The country hovered near civil war as both Democrats and Republicans claimed victory. Illustrator Thomas Nast drew this cartoon, Tilden or Blood, showing the Democrats threatening violence. On January 29, 1877, a highly partisan Electoral Commission, made up of eight Republicans and seven Democrats, was established by Congress to settle the issue. Under the terms of the Tilden-Hayes Election Compromise, Hayes became president and the Republicans agreed to remove the last Federal troops from Southern territory, ending Reconstruction.

Head of Continuous Improvement - Cheshire
Head of Continuous Improvement Jobs
There is no such thing as the perfect business. Every hour, inefficiencies and bad practice are going on without the owners' knowledge, or the owners know they exist but are powerless to act. This is where the head of continuous improvement comes in. It is an analytical role that constantly audits every business process and looks for inefficiencies that can be ironed out. Depending on the size of the company, this can be a one-person job, heading up a small team or employing dozens of auditors to make the business better.
But it's not just about the money – not directly, anyway. Often, an improvement is simply one that helps staff with their work and removes those irritations and bureaucracy that reduces job satisfaction. Sometimes it's an environmental improvement that doesn't have obvious financial implications but can have longer-term benefits. Improvement takes many forms, and once the head of continuous improvement has got under the skin of the company and found out exactly how it operates, it's inevitable that the financial benefits will follow.
The job of head of continuous improvement has two main strands – analyzing the financial matters and seeking out other procedural activities that can be improved. You will need to be prepared to get your hands dirty (sometime literally) by delving into the business, talking to employees, observing and measuring the way people work and researching alternative methodologies that can create efficiencies.
The head of continuous improvement may sometimes need to make unpopular decisions, for example choosing to outsource elements of the business or making it less top-heavy if inefficiencies are identified. While the final decision will be made by the board, you must have the confidence in your convictions to make such recommendations. Of course, the opposite is also true, and your recommendations could lead to the growth of the company. As long as you have performed detailed analyses, you will be able to present accurate projections to the board.

The World Waits

Are we approaching the final battle between heaven and hell or will we dodge this election death-bullet?
President Trump gave a speech last week that he called "The most important speech I've ever given." And true to form, none of the big networks covered it. In fact, if they mentioned it at all, it was dismissed as just "a bizarre, post-election rant" and "baseless conspiracy theories."
President Trump spoke for 45 minutes, detailing myriads of facts supporting the known fraud that took place during the Presidential vote tabulation. But it was a sentence buried in the middle that was earth-shattering, something of which you definitely need to be aware. He said:
"If we are right about the fraud, Joe Biden can't be president. We're talking about hundreds of thousands of votes. We're talking about numbers like nobody has ever seen before."
President Trump is stating in no uncertain terms that if Biden stole the election, which he did, he should do whatever is necessary to keep Biden, and those controlling him, from taking office.
So if all else fails, I think he's saying he will do whatever is necessary keep out the communists. He knows he took an oath to defend this country from our enemies, foreign and domestic. And he takes his oaths seriously.
He has proof powerful communist forces are trying to take our country down. He has proof China worked with Biden. He has proof that China is knee-deep in Dominion software. He knows, as does most everyone else, that those behind Biden stole the election.
So if President Trump can't get this election fraud case to the Supreme Court and can't stop the states from certifying the electoral college, what does that mean? I doubt President Trump will give up and walk away if he thinks our nation will fall to communists.
On the other hand, if he doesn't stop Biden from becoming President, it would be far worse. Let's face it, so much is at stake in the next few weeks…like our country and way of life. That's no exaggeration.
And our President usually lands on his feet. Up until now you could argue he's had SOME KIND OF DIVINE PROTECTION based on all that he has been protected from (see "Satan's Flaming Arrows" graphic below).
Am I predicting Trump will be forever protected by the Lord? No, of course not. Nor am I saying President Trump is sinless. I'm just pointing out the obvious.
Any way you look at that chart, the Lord has been protecting President Trump until now, so why would we think he won't protect him from this FRAUD ARROW?
So knowing that God has been protecting President Trump in the past should encourage us to pray like crazy—that the Lord will continue to protect and give him and his advisors Godly wisdom during this critical time!
We Deserve Biden
God is always in control. And quite frankly, Christians have dropped the ball in so many areas that we all know we deserve another Obama, like Biden. 🙁
Thankfully we know that being a Believer means not always getting what we deserve because God is gracious to us—not because of what we do, but because of what Jesus did. 🙂
God's love and protection for us is not dependent on what we do right or wrong. We can, and often do, reap what we sow. Thankfully our Lord is gracious and often has mercy on us.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. Psa. 103:12
So I still believe the stolen election will be exposed and the fraudulent votes thrown out. We should know before January 7. And I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't again mention the importance of praying!
…The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. James 5:16
The Flame of the Flu Fear
And on the other major front, the COVID vaccine is being pushed like there's no tomorrow. History may just very well be repeating itself.
Back in 1976, the Swine Flu raised its ugly head and 11 soldiers at Fort Dix contracted it, with one dying. Health officials were dismayed to discover hundreds more soldiers had the antibodies.
Incorrectly determining that the virus was a repeat of the 1918 Spanish Flu where 50 million people died worldwide, scientists immediately projected 50 to 60 million Americans would be infected and over one million would die. The New York Times fan-flamed front page headlines that the 1918 Spanish Flu virus had returned.
The decision was made by then-President Ford to ramp up (rush) a vaccine.(2) 45 million people were vaccinated before it was discovered that hundreds were getting Guillain-Barre syndrome, which causes muscle weakness, paralysis and death.
Others were mysteriously dying of heart attacks just after taking the vaccine. The program lost public confidence and was eventually unceremoniously cancelled.
Think about today, the FDA is again rushing a vaccine to foist onto the public. Its own website says to expect "deaths" from the vaccine.(1) Really? (See FDA chart below)
And again we're seeing more and more doctors complaining about this virus and its vaccine.
Here's a link to a video of one doc after another from around the world telling us this whole thing is ridiculous.
(If you don't have 30 minutes to watch it, try to come back later, it's quite worth the effort to see.)
And a good resource is American Frontline Doctors. They have a link to be able to access hydroxychloroquine. https://www.americasfrontlinedoctors.com/
As we've said for some time, the FDA is totally compromised and in bed with Big Pharma(10). They think nothing of making kids take a measles vaccine that causes more deaths than lives it saves.(8)
So this is what these fraudsters ARE admitting to:
We have a 99.9% chance of surviving COVID-19 if we don't take a vaccine, yet we're being encouraged to take an untested vaccine that the FDA says is EXPECTING to have major problems after taking it. Notice death is one of the "adverse outcomes" of taking this vaccine!
And they have no idea how many of each of the above problems there will be. So they will "monitor" and apparently tell us later. Other articles claim the vaccine will cause infertility in women.(4)
But the word is out, if you don't take the vaccine, you're worse than an infidel. Canada's Chief Medical officer says if you don't get vaccinated, you'll lose your freedom. And Bill Gates has already said life will not return to normal until you take his vaccine.(5) So somehow we've gone from "14 days to flatten the curve" to "house arrest until you accept socialism."
The national stimulus package that is being proposed for Americans may have a qualifying twist this time. Instead of $1,200 sent to each taxpayer like the first stimulus, they will instead give you $1,500...if you take the vaccine.(7)
Always remember, Nazism (short for National Socialism) was sold to the public as a benefit, not as enslavement. With 6000 years of practice, Satan is a very good liar.
Socialism has always been attractive to anyone seeking power. Therefore, once they get power, it's hard to take it back… i.e., Trump trying to take down those who were so close to their socialistic goals they could taste it.
So a lot will be happening in the coming weeks; don't give up on President Trump's reelection...keep lifting him up in prayer, as well as his legal teams. Due to the known fraud, his team is making legal progress and he's in a very good position to remain in office.
I know this, if God wants President Trump to continue, he will continue to lead this nation against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
"Is anything too difficult for the LORD? Gen. 18:14a

My God - Gareth Morgan
Economist and philanthropist Gareth Morgan is typically forthright as he explains his atheism in this episode from the TV One series about spirituality. Morgan walked away from a Reserve Bank job to live in a bus (from where he eventually founded his company Infometrics). He talks candidly about childhood operations for a cleft lip and his decision to give away the millions earned from his investment in Trade Me (founded by his son Sam) but is less than charitable in his views on accountants. Note: Morgan does not worship Bastet (the Egyptian goddess of cats).
Flying Fox in a Freedom Tree
Film, 1990 (Excerpts)
On the Samoan island of Sapepe, the rebellious, pranksterish young Pepe (Faifua Amiga) rejects his imported Christianity and declares himself a descendant of the old gods, setting himself on a path of alienation and conflict. In this excerpt, he leads a burglary of his father's store and burns down a church on the streets of Apia. Adapted from two works by Albert Wendt and shot with a local and largely amateur crew, Martyn Sanderson's first feature is emboldened by vivid cinematography and Kingpin-star Amiga's unforced charisma in the lead role.

Q: How to create another page I am trying to make a website dashboard that would connect to a ROBLOX script. I am trying to make the ROBLOX script add a div and some info to the website. I have seen Forum pages i.e https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/forums
In forums, you can make your own forum page and it posts that website page. Is it possible for a ROBLOX script to do that? If not, how would I make another page on the website create the page? I currently have tried about 3 things and they all failed miserably.Thanks! Bye.

A: If you would like to add pages to a website, your going to need to learn some webcode like PHP. It is impossible to create this with a ROBLOX script because you will need to connect to a web database like SQL. Here are some links you you can learn more:

Q: How do you deduce the integer whose multiplicative inverse decimal has a digit sequence or repetend length of 3 digits? A positive integer's, n, reciprocal, $\frac{1}{n}$, in which the decimal's repetend has a length of three digits which starts at the decimal mark.
e.g. 0.037037... of the integer, 27 ,reciprocal $\frac{1}{27}$
\begin{equation*}
\frac {1}{n}
=
\frac{p}{999}
\end{equation*}
where p is the 3-digit-repetend ( e.g. according to the previous example $p=37$.
27 and 37 are such integers, but how are the rest deduced?

A: $$\frac 1n=0.abcabcabc......\Rightarrow\frac 1n = \frac{abc}{10^3}(1+\frac{1}{10^3}+....+\frac{1}{10^{3n}}+....)=\frac{abc}{999}$$ It follows $$abc=\frac{999}{n}=\frac{3^3\cdot 37}{n}$$
$3^3\cdot 37$ has $(3+1)(1+1)=8$ factors from which we have eight solutions for $n$. The "trivial" ones are $1,3,9$. The other five are $27,37,111,333,999$ whose decimal representations have periods $037,027,009,003$ and $001$ respectively.
(I called "trivial" $1,3,9$ because $\frac 11=0.99999999....;\frac 13= 0.333333.....;\frac 19= 0.11111....$)

A: It should at least be a factor of $999$.  So,
$$999 = 3^3 \cdot 37$$
Your choices then are $1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 111, 333,$ and $999$.  The choices $n=1, 3,$ and $9$ have repetends of length $1$.  All others have repetend of length $3$.
As for why this works, let's say that $k = 0.abcabcabc ...$ is a repeating decimal with a pattern of three digits $a,b,c$ (not necessarily different digits).  Then, $1000k = abc.abcabcabc ...$, and subtracting the two, $999k = abc$, so $k = abc/999$.  Then, to get $k$ into a form $1/n$, $abc$ must divide $999$.

Here are my goals for 2015. These are goals for the year, the way the mountain peak is the goal when you start off on the trail at the foothill – a guide to where I think I want to go. The trail is sure to change, to twist around, to appear to take me in the opposite direction. As long as I am on that path, I should be good.
This year, to set goals, I consciously and probably subconsciously too, put to practice the stuff I read through the year.
From Tynan's Superhuman by Habit – the concept of habit loading.
From Zen Habits, Tynan , Seth Godin, Steven Pressfield , Anne Lamott and others- the power of everyday habits, on looking long term.
From Warren Buffet and others – of culling and simplicity.
And many more I don't recall right now.
To get to what you see here, I made a list of all the things I really want to do this year, made a list of who I would like to be, sorted the list in terms of what would be fun to do, what is essential for my sanity, what will be useful long term. And then came up with this list.
Apart from the 'new' goals, this year, I have added a column on things to sustain which began this year – since sustaining these are an essential part of working on the new goals.
After coming up with this table of goals for 2015, as recommended by Tynan in Superhuman by Habit , I am writing down, in longhand, why I have decided on each of these as goals, what are the pros of doing it and what are the cons. These are for later in the year, when there are going to be dips on the road and I am tempted to give up on these goals.
* A challenging, fun project for work – which has the power to change my life, if I so dare. * Run SoFoBoMo again in 2015 – Jul 1 to Aug 31. And follow through on planned improvements if possible. * Top rope 5.12a at Planet Granite before Dec 31, 2015. * Continue to write 1000 words daily.
* Decide a design house and release new free themes under here for Flogr (and maybe WordPress and maybe Drupal). * Start a daily yoga practice – minimum of 6 Suryanamaskar sequences everyday. * Continue minimum 2 mins of meditation daily.
* Start a daily photography habit as per article on The Online Photographer – The Digital Year. * Continue to post 2 new posts a week on Rope and Tire, plus the two twice a month series.


On Monday, we had a professional development day that was just a little different.
We did something very similar to this last year as well, and I'm hoping that we continue to do this in the future. For me, as a teacher, professional development has changed drastically. We've gone from the full day "sit and get", where you suffer through things in hopes of finding that little nugget of goodness, towards an Edcamp approach (see my posts here, here, and here about my previous Edcamp experiences).
After our first session with Dr. Zimmerman, we had break out sessions on topics ranging from standards based grading to project based learning to teacher leadership. I attended a session dealing with personalized professional development held by a technology specialist, Jarod Bormann (@jbormann3). He's developed a great system of personalized PD in several districts, and just hearing the inter-workings of it make me hopeful that it will land in our district sometime soon! Here is an example of what he's done in one of his district. Send him a tweet to find out more as he's very passionate about this topic!
And finally, we did a Edcamp style breakout session, giving some topcis we'd like to know more about. Well, for some reason, I got linked into a gameification/Minecraft session which I knew very little about. But, many of the people in the session had never really done a style like this, so we talked through what Edcamps were, how they worked, and then I showed the very little knowledge I had about Minecraft. I was very lucky in that Matt Molumby (@DocMolumby) saved me as he's both a player and someone who's used it in class. His help was greatly appreciated in both being able to explain what Minecraft is and how he used it in his class. A wonderful resource if you are looking to jump into the world of building! We had others using different flash games to simulate different things along with Kahoot being thrown out as a great resource as well.
With the positive message of Dr. Zimmerman, it's hard not to reflect on this day without thinking of all the positives that happened! Last year, we had Kevin Honeycutt come in, which was pretty awesome in itself, but the edcamp style made this a great day. I do hope we continue with a PD model like this, at least with one of our days, because we can learn so much from the districts around us, what works and doesn't work, along with just making those connections to local teachers.

This textbook on the sociology of law is organised according to the theoretical traditions of sociology and oriented towards providing an accessible but sophisticated introduction to and overview of the central themes problems and debates in this field. The book employs an international range of examples - including the state minority rights terrorism family violence the legal profession pornography mediation religious tolerance and euthanasia - in order to distinguish a sociological approach to law from 'black-letter' jurisprudential and empirical policy-oriented traditions. Beginning with 'classical' 'consensus' and 'critical' sociological approaches the book covers the full range of contemporary perspectives including the new institutionalism feminism the interpretive tradition postmodernism legal pluralism and globalisation. It then concludes with a consideration of current theoretical issues as well as a reflection upon the importance of a sociological approach to law. Understanding Law and Society provides a clear but critical discussion of the relevant literature along with study questions and guides to further reading. It is designed to support courses in law and society and in the sociology of law but will also be of value to others with interests in these areas. Language: English
