Opinion: Montreal should hold a summit on the city's nightlife
Mayor Denis Coderre's plan to test the feasibility of all-night drinking in Montreal bars was met this week by a flat rejection from the Régie des alcools du Québec. In its 38-page ruling, the Régie denied applications from bars on Crescent St., and in Montreal's Quartier Latin, to serve drinks until 5:30 a.m. It's hard to tell at this point whether the Régie's ruling marked a principled stand against late-night drinking or was just a slap on the wrist to the Coderre administration for putting forward a sloppy, unfinished proposal. The question of what to do about Montreal's nightlife has a long history, of course. Before he was elected mayor in 1954, Jean Drapeau and his colleagues in the Comité de moralité publique drove around Montreal in the early hours of the morning, making lists of bars and cabarets that were staying open beyond official closing hours. More recently, in 2012, a group called the Association des Sociétés de développement de Montréal called on then-mayor Gérald Tremblay to follow the lead of European cities and adopt a Charter of Nightlife.
Mayor Denis Coderre's plan to test the feasibility of all-night drinking in Montreal bars was met this week by a flat rejection from the Régie des alcools du Québec.

The question of what to do about Montreal's nightlife has a long history, of course. Before he was elected mayor in 1954, Jean Drapeau and his colleagues in the Comité de moralité publique drove around Montreal in the early hours of the morning, making lists of bars and cabarets that were staying open beyond official closing hours. More recently, in 2012, a group called the Association des Sociétés de développement de Montréal called on then-mayor Gérald Tremblay to follow the lead of European cities and adopt a Charter of Nightlife.
These charters usually recognize the contribution of nighttime culture and commerce to a city's livelihood and spell out the rights and responsibilities of those who work and play in the night. Many European cities now have Night Mayors, who are usually unelected but accepted by both sides as effective mediators between governments and the nightlife sector. I've met the night mayors of Amsterdam, Paris and Toulouse, and found them to be hard-working, well-informed night owls who come out of the nightlife commercial sector and have earned the respect of their municipal governments.
Last September, I co-chaired a panel on Montreal's nighttime culture at the Pop Montreal festival. One of those in the audience was Mélanie Joly, a candidate for mayor who took the issue seriously enough to show up at an event that promised little in the way of media coverage. Before the election, Coderre had shown signs of wanting to do something about Montreal's nighttime culture and the conflicts that have erupted between nightlife entrepreneurs and the gentrifying residents of downtown areas.
There was hope Coderre would convene a summit on the night, in which citizens, police representatives, business people, transit officials and others could reflect on problems and opportunities associated with opening up Montreal's night. The model for these summits is the high-profile États généraux de la nuit held in Paris in 2010, in response to claims that Parisian nightlife was dying.
In Montreal, at least for the moment, larger issues about the night have been reduced to the question of whether the Winston Churchill Pub, the Café Hookah Lounge and a few other establishments might extend their opening hours until early morning. If we believe the Régie's ruling, the Coderre administration didn't do its homework. Rather than offering a comprehensive plan for remaking the Montreal night, it simply let a few bars apply individually for permission to stay open until early morning.
In particular, the Régie argued, the city had let these proposals go forward without sufficient input from police, transit authorities or the general public.
Citizens groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving were able to take their objections to the Régie first, rather than to meetings that the city should have convened in order to accommodate and respond to these objections.
An unidentified Monsieur D., the owner of several bars in the Plateau area who opposed the extension of drinking hours, raised the spectre of street gangs and suburban drunks invading the city in early morning.
His opposition was singled out by the Régie as the welcome voice of a younger generation.
Missing from the application and from the Régie's response was any broader, philosophical sense of what, as Montrealers, we might want our night to be.
The idea of a summit on the Montreal night, in which all sectors of city life might come together to reflect upon these issues, seems for the moment to be on hold.

text:
These instructions will walk you through running Container Linux on the Rackspace OpenStack cloud, which differs slightly from the generic OpenStack instructions. There are two ways to launch a Container Linux cluster: launch an entire cluster with Heat or launch machines with Nova.

## Choosing a channel

Container Linux is designed to be [updated automatically](https://coreos.com/why/#updates) with different schedules per channel. You can [disable this feature](update-strategies.md), although we don't recommend it. Read the [release notes](https://coreos.com/releases) for specific features and bug fixes.

Stable Channel

Beta Channel

Alpha Channel

The Alpha channel closely tracks master and is released frequently. The newest versions of system libraries and utilities will be available for testing. The current version is Container Linux {{site.alpha-channel}}.

The following command can be used to determine the image IDs for Alpha:

supernova production image-list | grep 'CoreOS (Alpha)'

The Beta channel consists of promoted Alpha releases. The current version is Container Linux {{site.beta-channel}}.

The following command can be used to determine the image IDs for Beta:

supernova production image-list | grep 'CoreOS (Beta)'

The Stable channel should be used by production clusters. Versions of Container Linux are battle-tested within the Beta and Alpha channels before being promoted. The current version is Container Linux {{site.stable-channel}}.

The following command can be used to determine the image IDs for Stable:

supernova production image-list | grep 'CoreOS (Stable)'

## Cloud-config

Container Linux allows you to configure machine parameters, launch systemd units on startup and more via cloud-config. Jump over to the [docs to learn about the supported features][cloud-config-docs]. Cloud-config is intended to bring up a cluster of machines into a minimal useful state and ideally shouldn't be used to configure anything that isn't standard across many hosts. Once a machine is created on Rackspace, the cloud-config can't be modified.

You can provide cloud-config data via both Heat and Nova APIs. You **cannot** provide cloud-config via the Control Panel. If you launch machines via the UI, you will have to do all configuration manually.

The most common Rackspace cloud-config looks like:

```cloud-config
#cloud-config

coreos:
  etcd2:
    # generate a new token for each unique cluster from https://discovery.etcd.io/new?size=3
    # specify the initial size of your cluster with ?size=X
    discovery: https://discovery.etcd.io/<token>
    # multi-region and multi-cloud deployments need to use $public_ipv4
    advertise-client-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2379,http://$private_ipv4:4001
    initial-advertise-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
    # listen on both the official ports and the legacy ports
    # legacy ports can be omitted if your application doesn't depend on them
    listen-client-urls: http://0.0.0.0:2379,http://0.0.0.0:4001
    listen-peer-urls: http://$private_ipv4:2380
  units:
    - name: etcd2.service
      command: start
    - name: fleet.service
      command: start
```

The `$private_ipv4` and `$public_ipv4` substitution variables are fully supported in cloud-config on Rackspace.

[cloud-config-docs]: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-cloudinit/blob/master/Documentation/cloud-config.md

### Mount data disk

Certain server flavors have separate system and data disks. To utilize the data disks, they must be mounted with a `.mount` unit. Check to make sure the `Where=` parameter accurately reflects the location of the block device:

```cloud-config
#cloud-config
coreos:
  units:
    - name: media-data.mount
      command: start
      content: |
        [Mount]
        What=/dev/xvde
        Where=/media/data
        Type=ext3
```

Mounting Cloud Block Storage can be done with a mount unit, but should not be included in cloud-config unless the disk is present on the first boot.

For more general information, check out [mounting storage on Container Linux](mounting-storage.md).

## Launch with Nova

We're going to install `rackspace-novaclient`, upload a keypair and boot the image id from above.

### Install Supernova tool

The Supernova tool requires Python and `pip`, a Python package manger. If you don't have `pip` installed, install it by running `sudo easy_install pip`. Now let's use `pip` to install Supernova, a tool that lets you easily switch Rackspace regions. Be sure to install these in the order listed:

```sh
sudo pip install keyring
sudo pip install rackspace-novaclient
sudo pip install supernova
```

### Store account information

Edit your config file (`~/.supernova`) to store your Rackspace username, API key (referenced as `OS_PASSWORD`) and some other settings. The `OS_TENANT_NAME` should be set to your Rackspace account ID, which can be found by clicking on your Rackspace username in the upper right-hand corner of the cloud control panel UI.

```ini
[production]
OS_AUTH_URL = https://identity.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/
OS_USERNAME = username
OS_PASSWORD = fd62afe2-4686-469f-9849-ceaa792c55a6
OS_TENANT_NAME = 123456
OS_REGION_NAME = DFW
OS_AUTH_SYSTEM = rackspace
```

We're ready to create a keypair then boot a server with it.

### Create keypair

For this guide, I'm assuming you already have a public key you use for your Container Linux servers. Note that only RSA keypairs are supported. Load the public key to Rackspace:

```sh
supernova production keypair-add --pub-key ~/.ssh/coreos.pub coreos-key
```

Check you make sure the key is in your list by running `supernova production keypair-list`

```
+------------+-------------------------------------------------+
| Name       | Fingerprint                                     |
+------------+-------------------------------------------------+
| coreos-key | d0:6b:d8:3a:3e:6a:52:43:32:bc:01:ea:c2:0f:49:59 |
+------------+-------------------------------------------------+
```

### Boot a server

Stable Channel

Beta Channel

Alpha Channel

Boot a new Cloud Server with our new keypair and specify optional cloud-config data:

supernova production boot --image <image-id> --flavor performance1-2 --key-name coreos-key --user-data ~/cloud_config.yml --config-drive true My_Container_Linux_Server

Boot a new OnMetal Server with our new keypair and specify optional cloud-config data:

supernova production boot --image <image-id> --flavor onmetal-compute1 --key-name coreos-key --user-data ~/cloud_config.yml --config-drive true My_Container_Linux_Server

Boot a new Cloud Server with our new keypair and specify optional cloud-config data:

supernova production boot --image <image-id> --flavor performance1-2 --key-name coreos-key --user-data ~/cloud_config.yml --config-drive true My_Container_Linux_Server

Boot a new Cloud Server with our new keypair and specify optional cloud-config data:

supernova production boot --image <image-id> --flavor performance1-2 --key-name coreos-key --user-data ~/cloud_config.yml --config-drive true My_Container_Linux_Server

You should now see the details of your new server in your terminal and it should also show up in the control panel:

```

### Launching more servers

To launch more servers and have them join your cluster, simply provide the same cloud-config.

## Launch via control panel

You can also launch servers with either the `alpha` and `beta` channel versions via the web-based Control Panel, although you can't provide cloud-config via the UI. To do so:

 1. Log into your Rackspace Control Panel
 2. Click on 'Servers'
 3. Click on 'Create Server'
 4. Choose server name and region
 5. Click on 'Linux', then on 'CoreOS' and finally choose '(alpha)' or '(beta)' version
 6. Choose flavor and use 'Advanced Options' to select SSH Key -- if available
 7. Click on 'Create Server'

## Using CoreOS Container Linux

Now that you have a machine booted it is time to play around. Check out the [Container Linux Quickstart](quickstart.md) guide or dig into [more specific topics](https://coreos.com/docs).

Welcome to Alexandria Bay, New York, located on the St. Lawrence River in the "Heart of the Thousand Islands" in northern Jefferson County. This riverside tourist resort community enjoys scenic beauty, quiet charm and a position among the Thousand Islands that are unequaled anywhere and have captured the hearts and imagination of tourists, historians, boaters, fishermen and everyday residents. Visitors to this historic tourist village will find an amazing array of sites to see, as well as fun and leisure activities. Enjoy a dinner cruise of the breathtaking and picturesque Thousand Islands; a tour of the century-old historic Boldt Castle; a picnic or concert at Scenic View Park; unique regional merchandise at dockside shops; or a visit to the local aquazoo.
At the "heart" of Alexandria Bay is Heart Island, the home of the renowned and storied Boldt Castle. The island was so named because of its shape and a romantic, but heart-breaking, love story. In the 1890's, millionaire New York City hotel owner George Boldt and his beloved wife Louise were so enamored by the region's natural beauty that they frequently brought friends for relaxation and dinner aboard their yacht while cruising the Thousand Islands. In 1894, during one of their yachting adventures, the Boldts' personal chef created an unforgettable salad dressing which so pleased their guests that it was introduced at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City and the Bellevue Stratford in Philadelphia. Boldt subsequently named the salad topping "Thousand Islands Dressing" in honor of the beautiful region where it was first prepared.
Around the turn of the century, Boldt commissioned the planning and construction of an impressive and ornately-designed, six-story stone structure with 120 rooms as a replica of a Rhineland Castle, along with a drawbridge, powerhouse, tunnels, a children's playhouse, Italian gardens and a stone arch resembling Arc de Triumphe in Paris, France at the shoreline of Heart Island. The impressive summer home was a gift to his beloved wife. However, when Louise died unexpectedly in 1904, George ordered all construction on the island halted. As a result, the castle which was never completed. In 1977, after years of decay, weather and vandalism, a multimillion-dollar effort began, under the auspices and ownership of the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority, to refurbish and restore Boldt Castle to the condition when construction was discontinued... and to open the castle as a tourist attraction for the appreciation of many generations to come.
The heritage of Alexandria Bay and the Thousand Islands includes accounts and legends of pirates who looted passing ships. Perhaps the most famous of Alexandria Bay's pirate stories was the capture of the Sir Robert Peel in May 1838, during the Patriot War with Canada. A gang of pirates led by Bill Johnston boarded the ship, ordered the passengers and crew to shore, grabbed 20,000 pounds in militia payroll, then torched and fled the vessel. Within days, thirteen men were captured and charged for the assault on the ship, but none of them were ever convicted. The remnants of the sunken hull still remain there, and have been a popular underwater adventure for scuba divers and a curiosity for tourists and history buffs. In August, Alexandria Bay comes alive with "Bill Johnston's Pirate Days" featuring reenactments of the pirate ship attack on the village.
Whether it's Pirate Days, visiting the local museum or taking a cruise on the St. Lawrence River, Alexandria Bay offers plenty to see and lots to do! An ideal and fun vacation destination, Alexandria Bay invites you to come visit us soon! For more information on Alexandria Bay, N.Y., please contact the Alexandria Bay Chamber of Commerce at 1-800-541-2110.


Remember when we told you that a 'Mean Girls' brunch was happening in London? Of course you do – it was only announced on Monday and sold out almost immediately. Now the organisers, Joshua Walker PR, have decided to ride this eggy tide by launching a Harry Potter-themed brunch at Anokha restaurant on February 24.
So what does it involve? First, a sorting hat will be plonked on the head of each diner as they enter, to determine their 'house' for the night. And they'll be asked to throw on their 'best robes' for a meal in the 'Great Hall', where the Hogwarts fans can test their knowledge with a Harry Potter quiz while one of the eight blockbuster films plays in the background.
As with the 'Mean Girls' event, the ticket price (£35) will include a brunch main and dessert, but this time, there's an hour of bottomless Butterbeer. If you don't want to down lots of frothy pints in 60 minutes, you can have prosecco instead. It might help long-time fans get over the horrible realisation that the HP series is almost 21 years old.
We can't vouch for the grub, but hopefully you won't end up with a plate of Bertie Bott's earwax jelly beans.
Sound like your kind of thing? Slytherin to the event website for more info.
Remember that Harry Potter exhibition at the British Library? Grab your last chance to see it.
Need more Potter? London is the place to be.
I purchased this tickets because I´ve heard many people from London talking about it. I am from Spain and my husband is from America, and we both left VERY disappointed.
The mood of the restaurant is great (the smell was weird), and we loved the Trivia and all the magic shows.
However, we got to eat what was called a brunch but in reality it was a very poor dish of one small piece of beef with a spoon of rice... I hoped they would bring a second dish or something, but we paid £37 for 1h of unlimited Prosecco - which I don´t drink, and we had to leave before they closed because we went to Burger King starving!!
@Sara M I had a similarly disappointing experience. There were a lot of communication issues with the food options. Dessert laughably consisted of donuts. Not galaxy donuts, plain old donuts with sprinkles. There was one small chunk of beef with the spoonful of rice.
We loved the magician but the whole thing was not worth what we'd paid at all. The most disappointing thing is that I now associate Harry Potter with this disappointing experience.
I give the whole experience one star. I emailed the company three pages worth of feedback and I'm waiting for their response.


The Chicago Jewish Day School was evacuated for about two hours March 7.
A Loyola student was the victim of hate speech vandalism the night between Feb. 4 and 5.
The graffiti was written near the door of a student's room in Spring Hill Residence Hall on the Lake Shore Campus during the night, Deputy Chief of Loyola Campus Safety Ed Mirabelli wrote in an email to the Loyola community on Feb. 5. Campus safety removed the graffiti the morning of Feb. 5.
In the email, Mirabelli wrote that Campus Safety is looking for any information about the incident.
Mirabelli advised victims of a hate crime to contact Campus Safety or to call the ethics reporting hotline at 1-855-603-6988.


PETER KENYON, BYLINE: Iranian state media described a shooting attack by four men in Ahvaz. The southern Iranian city was one of several locations staging military parades to mark the Iran-Iraq War fought for much of the 1980s. Among the victims was a 4-year-old boy. It was a relatively rare terrorist attack for Iran. And President Hassan Rouhani quickly blamed the U.S. and its regional allies. The attack was claimed by an Arab separatist group that describes itself as supported by Saudi Arabia, Iran's most powerful regional rival. Foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted that, quote, "terrorists recruited, trained, armed and paid by a foreign regime carried out the attack," adding that, quote, "Iran holds regional terror sponsors and their U.S. masters accountable for such attacks." He said Tehran's response would be swift and decisive. Iran summoned a charge d'affaires for the United Arab Emirates following the attack.
The Trump administration rejected any blame. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley told CNN that Rouhani, quote, "can blame us all he wants," adding that the thing he's got to do is look in the mirror.
NIKKI HALEY: Look. The United States is not looking to do a regime change in Iran. We're not looking to do regime change anywhere.
KENYON: Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps says it lost a dozen members in the attack and vowed deadly and unforgettable revenge. Tensions between Iran and the U.S. have been on the rise since May, when President Trump pulled out of the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran and announced the reimposition of sanctions. The heaviest sanctions seeking to block Iran's lucrative oil trade are due to take effect in November. Iran has been working with European signatories to the agreement in hopes of keeping trade going despite the sanctions. Russia and China have also vowed to keep doing business with Iran.


So I had the most AMAZING weekend, I did ALL of my favorite things!!! I stayed in Friday cause I had to be up SUPER early Saturday to Walk up Stone Mountain with some BADASS girls, help setup the Arena for our Anniversary service Sunday morning, greeted and attend the service, went wine tasting at Savor Wine Boutique, went for Italian ice, had dinner at Rosa Mexican in Atlantic Station and went to see "The Perfect Guy" movie… See, I had the most amazing weekend and a friend made it all special!!!
I absolutely LOVE my weekends, I get to unwind and enjoy the simple things I love with great company. And speaking of Wine, I've added a "Hello Red Wine" segment to the blog where I will be talking about my favorite wine, attends wine tastings and all the other fabulous wine events in Atlanta.
Ok, beauties, enough about MY weekend, how was YOUR weekend? What did you do? Did you get to do all of your favorite things? Tell me ALL about it in the comment box below!!

Q: What XPath expression should I use to fetch the number of likes and comments on a YouTube video? I'm using the "IMPORTXML" function on Google Spreadsheets to get the number of likes and comments on any given YouTube video. However, I can't find the right XPath, and all I've tried return an empty value.
I used ChroPath to extract the XPath of the comments and likes count, but to no success.
This is the XPath that I've been using for amount of comments:
//yt-formatted-string[@class='count-text style-scope ytd-comments-header-renderer']

And this is for amount of likes:
//div[@id='info']//ytd-toggle-button-renderer[1]//a[1]//yt-icon-button[1]

When I try those it just says the content is empty. What is the correct XPath that I should be using to get the number of likes and comments?

A: *

*You want to retrieve the number of likes of the video on YouTube.

*You want to put the value to the Spreadsheet.

How about this formula? Please think of this as just one of several answers.
Sample formula:
=VALUE(IMPORTXML(A1,"//button[@title='I like this']/span"))

*

*In this case, the cell "A1" is the URL like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=###.

*Xpath is //button[@title='I like this']/span".

Sample script of Google Apps Script:
As another method for retrieving the number of likes, if you use Advanced Google services of Google Apps Script, the sample script is as follows.
var count = YouTube.Videos.list("statistics", {id: "###"}).items[0].statistics.likeCount;

*

*### is the video's ID.

References:

*

*IMPORTXML

*VALUE

*Advanced Google services

*Videos: list
If I misunderstood your question and this was not the result you want, I apologize.

A: for YT likes you could use:
=IF(ISNA(IMPORTXML("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkgR0SxmMKo","(//*[contains(@class,'like-button-renderer-like-button')])[1]"))=TRUE,0,
         IMPORTXML("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkgR0SxmMKo","(//*[contains(@class,'like-button-renderer-like-button')])[1]"))

Food just Devine. Service knowledgable and attentive. Love to come back as we hear breakfasts are incredible also. We had a great family dinner on Saturday night.
I booked a table at the window for us and overseas guests. We weren't seated there. Our main meals were cold and swimming in oil. Our waitress was too busy to properly attend to our  table of six and I had to ask for our table to be cleared - we sat there for 30 mins with finished plates on the table.
We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at your fabulous restaurant on Friday night - absolutely could not fault the food - amazing!  Love the interior decor and funky vibe/atmosphere also - we will most definitely be returning!
Amazing food and experience.  Love this place.
Always wonderful: menu, ambience, service. Don't change a thing, please (except, perhaps, at the bakery counter).
Amano is without a doubt still in my top three venues in Auckland - and I would rate Amano in the top level for any major city in the world.
You deserve all the plaudits that you receive.
Tops marks to wait staff and kitchen staff.
Highly recommended , will 100% be returning to enjoy more from the amazing menu.
Very enjoyable meal and atmosphere.  Highly recommended.
Such great service - we went for a family occasion and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic night. And obviously the food was all delicious.
I love Amano ! the staff are stunning :) Jonathan, Paul, Jade, Zoe, Ocean, Kerry and on and on ... they're great !
Couldn't really fault. Travel internationally a lot. Eat all over the place. One of my favourite dining experiences ever, and this second time didn't disappoint. Maybe one improvement might be a better IPA...but that's probably quibbling. Great staff.
My family and I were delighted in finding such a welcoming and pleasant environment at Amano's. The service was excellent and the food delicious. We didn't feel under pressure and were able to enjoy our food. It was fun and we ate well. Well done Amano. We will definitely come back and recommend you.
Great service, fun, buzzy atmosphere and delicious food.
Excellent experience, fabulous pasta and a very comfortable atmosphere. The desert cocktails are amazing!
Flavours of the food was fantastic!
Love this place!!! It never fails to deliver.

Friederich Salomon Perls, mais conhecido como Fritz Perls (Berlim, 8 de julho de 1893 – Chicago, 14 de maio de 1970) foi um psicoterapeuta e psiquiatra de origem judaica que, junto com sua esposa Laura Perls, desenvolveu uma abordagem de psicoterapia que chamou de Gestalt-terapia.

Biografia
Nascido em um gueto judeu de Berlim, foi o terceiro e último filho depois de duas meninas, Else e Grete. Seu pai, Nathan, foi vendedor de fraccionamento de vinhos, e passou muito tempo longe de casa e sempre teve uma relação muito ruim com seu único filho. Sua mãe, Amalia, judia, advinda de uma pequena burguesia, decisivamente influenciaria seu filho em relação às paixões pela ópera e teatro. Em relação aos seus pais, Fritz escreveu em sua autobiografia: "Meus pais eram judeus, identificados, especialmente o meu pai. Isso significa que, primeiro vivi a vergonha do meu passado e, por outro, mantive alguns de meus costumes tradicionais; como ir à igreja aos feriados. Pensei que no caso em que Deus estava em algum lugar, do qual eu não poderia estar presente, isso e outras hipocrisia, me fez ateu desde cedo... meu pai odiava minha mãe e outras mulheres, além de seu tempo livre dedicar-se a jogos. Em porém, parecia ser amigável".

Era um estudante brilhante, mas pouco esforçado na escola. Ele foi expulso por mau comportamento com 13 anos de idade. Seu pai, então, força-o a trabalhar em uma loja como um aprendiz. Suas relações foram sendo cada vez mais ressentidas. Na morte de seu pai, Perls não compareceu à seu funeral.

Ele retomou seus estudos, mas a escola liberal, o Ginásio Askanischer com um professor de humanidades, onde começou a fazer contato com o mundo do teatro de forma mais participativa, uma vocação que mais tarde iria aumentar. Um dos eventos importantes de sua adolescência veio com o diretor teatral Max Reinhardt, diretor do Deutsches Theater, com quem teve aulas.

Iniciou seus estudos de medicina, e quando a guerra foi declarada, um problema cardiovascular o isentou do serviço militar. No entanto, Perls se alistou como voluntário da Cruz Vermelha, servindo na frente belga em 1915. No ano seguinte, estava na frente, como um médico de um batalhão de sapadores. Sua experiência da guerra será registrada como uma das piores da sua vida: "A vida de agonia das trincheiras: horror, horror de viver e morrer".

Em 1920, formou-se em medicina na Universidade Humboldt de Berlim. Em seguida, foi contratado na mesma instituição como neuropsiquiatra, passando a ter estreita ligação com os círculos da esquerda política e da boemia artística, principalmente teatro. (Brücke, Bauhaus) Ele também foi profundamente influenciado e fascinado pelo filósofo Salomom Friedlander: "A filosofia era para mim uma palavra mágica, um algo tinha que entender, a compreender a si mesmo e do mundo, um antídoto para a confusão existencial e embaraçoso".

Em 1925, com trinta e dois anos ainda vivia com sua mãe. Período de incerteza e sofrimento. Encontrou-se com Lucy, seu primeiro grande relacionamento romântico. Em 1926 começou a ser analisado por Karen Horney, com quem estabelece um vínculo que vai sustentar-se toda a sua vida. Fascinado pela psicanálise, considerou a possibilidade de se tornar um analista.

Ele então mudou-se para Frankfurt, um ano mais tarde, onde passou um ano como assistente de Kurt Goldstein, um médico pesquisador da Gestalt em traumas cerebrais. Lá ele conheceu sua futura esposa e colaboradora, Lore Posner (Laura), com quem estabeleceu uma relação longa, ininterrupta e sentimental. Continuou a sua análise com um segundo psicanalista: Clara Happel em Viena, e estabeleceu-se para acolher os seus primeiros pacientes, supervisionados por Helen Deutsch e Hirschman. Ele também tomou um assistente em um hospital com Wagner-Jauregg e Paul Schilder.

Ao voltar para Berlim em 1928, foi estabelecido como psicanalista, continuando a sua análise com Eugen Harnik, psicanalista ortodoxo húngaro. Em 23 de Agosto do ano seguinte, Perls casou-se com Laura (Lore), tendo ele 36 e ela 24 anos. Seguindo o conselho de K. Horney, começou a sua quarta análise, desta vez com Wilhelm Reich, com quem manterá uma relação de admiração e amizade por toda a vida, a dizer: "De Reich tenho vesícula, Horney, o empenho humano sem terminologia complicada." Os anos 30 marcaram a ascensão de Hitler ao poder. No ano seguinte teve sua primeira filha, Renate. Ele continuou a trabalhar sob a supervisão de Otto Fenichel.

Em 1933 e para evitar prisão pelos nazistas, cruza a fronteira com a Holanda, deixando sua família no sul da Alemanha, em casa de autoridades por um tempo. Desde a reunião em Amsterdã, vivem inúmeras vezes dificuldades econômicas. Perls supervisiona Landanner Karl, outro refugiado, a quem ele lembra como "um homem de grande esforço para tornar possível o sistema freudiano mais compreensível". Outro amigo, Ernest Jones, como alguém que fez muito nesse tempo em favor dos psicanalistas judeus que foram perseguidos, aconselhou-o ir para a África do Sul em 1934, e então Perls saiu para um trabalho como psiquiatra em Joanesburgo, onde, como em sua autobiografia, contou como suas melhores lembranças. Juntamente com Laura fundou o Instituto Sul-Africano de Psicanálise. Vêem tempos de prosperidade econômica e reconhecimento profissional, longe do caos da guerra.

Em 1935, teve seu segundo filho, Steve. O ano de 1936 é crucial em termos de decepção, ao invés de antes da psicanálise , para os psicanalistas da época, diria mais tarde, "Durante anos eu era um pouco exagerado na minha oposição. Perdi a avaliação por Freud e suas descobertas." No mesmo ano parte para a Checoslováquia para o Congresso Internacional de Psicanálise em Marienbad e apresenta um trabalho sobre "Resistência oral", que não foi bem recebido. Perls encontra-se com Freud, mas é tratado com frieza e descrédito ao apresentar suas teorias.

Em 1942, publicou seu primeiro livro "Ego, fome e agressão", em Durban, em que Laura teve participação ativa, embora não tenha participado como co-autora.

No início da II Guerra Mundial, alistou-se como médico na Marinha, onde atendeu como psiquiatra por quatro anos. Isto levou-o a uma mudança gradual longe de Laura e seus filhos. Com cinqüenta e três, entediado com sua vida burguesa, em 1946, decidiu abandonar tudo e se instala com a família nos Estados Unidos. Karen Horney ajuda Perls a se estabelecer em Nova Yorke garante sua entrada no Allanson William White Institute como professor.

Foi bem recebido pelos psicanalistas americanos. Contracultural e reservado de ambientes freqüentados, onde conheceu Paul Goodman, Merce Cunningham, John Cage e Living Theater. No ano seguinte, Laura e seus filhos vieram morar com ele.

Em 1950, era conhecido como o "Grupo dos Sete": Fritz Perls, Laura Perls, Paul Goodman, Paul Weisz, Elliot Shapiro e Sylvester Eastman Isadore. Mais tarde entraram para o grupo os psicólogos Hefferline Ralph e Jim Simkin.

Em 1951, publicou "Gestalt-terapia (Gestalt-terapia), escrito por Paul Goodman (Parte II) e Hefferline (Parte I), em notas manuscritas de Fritz e, como resultado das conversações e reuniões em sua casa.

Um ano depois Perls fundou o Instituto Gestalt de Nova York e no ano seguinte, outro Instituto em Cleveland. Fritz delegava a gestão de ambos, junto com Laura e seus colegas, enquanto percorria os Estados Unidos fazendo demonstrações de grupos e gestalt-terapia. Os desacordos começam com Laura e seus discípulos sobre a ortodoxia da gestalt-terapia. O Instituto de Cleveland passa à segunda geração de Gestalt-terapeutas: Joseph Zinker, Erving e Miriam Polster.

Em 1956 Fritz deixa Laura (nunca se separaram judicialmente) e retirou-se para Miami. Com sessenta e três anos, a doença cardíaca o debilita e proíbe-o de viajar. No ano seguinte conheceu Marty Fromm, "a terceira mulher mais importante na sua vida", com quem viveu por três anos.

Ao separar-se de Marty, em 1959, se mudou para a Califórnia. Colabore com Van Dusen em San Francisco e Jim Simkin, em Los Angeles. Em 1962, Perls passa um ano viajando pelo mundo. Esteve em Israel (Ein Hod, comuna um dos artistas) e Japão (ficando dois meses de ensino Mosteiro Zen, em Quioto Daitokuji). A estadia em Israel significou uma transformação profunda, através do trabalho sistemático sobre si mesmo sob a influência de LSD.

Em 1965, Fritz tem setenta e dois anos e é severamente afetada a sua saúde. Rolf vai ajudá-lo a melhorá-lo através dos seus exercícios. Vem para ele o reconhecimento e a fama, com vários convites de filme em suas oficinas. Em 1966 Perls construiu a sua própria casa: a casa do Crescente Vermelho.

Em 1968, Fritz escreve as introduções de vários discípulos. Em 1969 publicou Gestalt Therapy Verbatim (Sonhos e existência) e, pouco depois de sua autobiografia "Dentro e fora da lata de lixo." Em Esalen, o ensino da Gestalt-terapia foi deixada nas mãos de quatro de seus discípulos, Dick Price, Claudio Naranjo, Bob Hall e Jack Downing, e Perls passa a morar no Canadá.

Em 1969 cria o Instituto Gestalt do Lago Cowichan (Vancouver Island), a que chama "Gestalt Kibbutz' para onde veio cerca de trinta discípulos de Esalen (Teddy Lyons, Barry Stevens, Janet Lederman e outros). Em dezembro, viaja para a Europa já muito doente.

Ao voltar à América, em fevereiro do próximo ano, Perls encontra-se com uma saúde muito debilitada. Dá entrada no Weiss Memorial Hospital, em Chicago. Laura vem visitá-lo e libera a cirurgia.

Perls morre de ataque cardíaco em 14 de março de 1970. A autópsia revelou câncer pancreático. Está sepultado no cemitério de Pforzheim, junto de Laura Perls.

Teorias
Fritz propôs o conceito de que o desenvolvimento psicológico e biológico de um organismo se processa de acordo com as tendências inatas desse organismo, que tentam adaptá-lo harmoniosamente ao ambiente e também criticava a psicanálise antes mesmo do surgimento da Gestalt-Terapia, podendo ser observado em sua primeira publicação: "The Ego, Hunger and Aggression"(1942), no qual critica a teoria psicanalítica com base em pesquisas sobre percepção e motivação. Neste livro Fritz lança uma importante discordância teórica com relação à psicanálise: a idéia de que a base da agressão e do sadismo está na fase oral e não na fase anal do desenvolvimento infantil.

É também neste livro que Perls lança alguns conceitos básicos do que seria, mais tarde, a Gestalt-terapia: a realidade do aqui e agora, o organismo como totalidade, a unidade organismo/meio, a dominância da necessidade emergente e uma reflexão sobre o conceito de agressão, que é entendida como uma força biológica importante para o crescimento. Um ano após sua publicação foi fundado o Gestalt Institute of New York centro especializado no desenvolvimento da Gestalt-Terapia. É importante salientar que Gestalt e Gestalt-terapia são conceitos diferentes.

Planets... About
Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. It has the third-largest planetary radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in the Solar System. Uranus is similar in composition to Neptune, and both are of different chemical composition than the larger gas giants Jupiter and Saturn. Astronomers sometimes place them in a separate category called "ice giants". Uranus's atmosphere, while similar to Jupiter's and Saturn's in its primary composition of hydrogen and helium, contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of hydrocarbons.[12] It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of 49 K (?224 °C). It has a complex, layered cloud structure, with water thought to make up the lowest clouds, and methane thought to make up the uppermost layer of clouds.[12] In contrast, the interior of Uranus is mainly composed of ices and rock.[11] Like the other giant planets, Uranus has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons. The Uranian system has a unique configuration among the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its revolution about the Sun. Its north and south poles therefore lie where most other planets have their equators.[16] In 1986, images from Voyager 2 showed Uranus as a virtually featureless planet in visible light without the cloud bands or storms associ
ted with the other giants.[16] Terrestrial observers have seen signs of seasonal change and increased weather activity in recent years as Uranus approached its equinox. The wind speeds on Uranus can reach 250 meters per second (900 km/h, 560 mph). Its most common name is after the ancient Greek deity of the sky Uranus (Ancient Greek: ???????), the father of Cronus (Saturn) and grandfather of Zeus (Jupiter). Though it is visible to the naked eye like the five classical planets, it was never recognized as a planet by ancient observers because of its dimness and slow orbit.[18] Sir William Herschel announced its discovery on March 13, 1781, expanding the known boundaries of the Solar System for the first time in history. Uranus was also the first planet discovered with a telescope. Planetary scientists often class volatiles with exceptionally low melting points, such as hydrogen and helium, as gases (as in gas giant), while those volatiles with melting points above about 100 K are referred to as ices. The terms "gas" and "ice" in this context can apply to compounds that may be solids, liquids or gases. Thus, Jupiter and Saturn are referred to as "gas giants", and Uranus and Neptune are referred to as "ice giants", even though the vast majority of the "gas" and "ice" in their interiors is a hot, highly dense fluid that gets denser as the center of the planet is approached.

We get hundreds of messages from customers who love our S-Biners, and we love reading them. One piece of feedback we've heard is this: "Please make an S-Biner sized perfectly to fit over things like stroller handles, larger lawn tools, and closet rods." So we did! The S-Biner #8, which is bigger than the #6, and smaller than the #10, has dozens and dozens of uses. With dual spring gates and double functionality, the S-Biner #8 is a two-in-one tool that has as many uses as you have medium sized things you'd like to organize, keep track of, or carry with you in an easy, hands-free way.
Made of strong, lightweight, durable plastic, it's strong enough to connect necessities to stroller handles (diaper bags, laundry bags, grocery bags, backpacks, boat railings, ladder rungs - anything you might want to take along when you're out and about). It also happens to fit over the handles of larger lawn tools (like rakes and shovels), as well as over closet rods, making hanging and organizing in sheds and garages a snap.

Star Wars Slowdown Was Expected
EntertainmentSteven Vargas September 21, 2018 1
It has been a summer of discontent at Disney. Their Marvel division has found that there is no limit to the amount of money they can make. With Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War, Disney made some huge gains. Of course, the same cannot be said for the Lucasfilm division. With the (overly-sensitive) backlash for Star Wars: The Last Jedi and the under-performing Solo, Disney has to rethink their yearly Star Wars deadlines.
[wpedon id="68289″ align="center"]
After Solo's less-than-stellar box office totals. It was not a failure like the haters want you to believe. However, Solo managed to pull into the top-ten highest grossing movies of the summer. Pulling in a $392 million worldwide gross, Disney is not furious about the box office take but you can tell they are not pleased with it.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Disney chief Bob Iger has promised that we will probably notice a change in the upcoming Star Wars release schedule. Currently, there was a plan to release a new, main trilogy story every other year. In-between those years, they would have a standalone movies. So fans could have a Marvel-esque type of experience with that galaxy far, far away.
I made the timing decision, and as I look back, I think the mistake that I made — I take the blame — was a little too much, too fast. You can expect some slowdown, but that doesn't mean we're not going to make films. J.J. [Abrams] is busy making [Episode] IX. We have creative entities, including [Game of Thrones creators David] Benioff and [D.B.] Weiss, who are developing sagas of their own, which we haven't been specific about. And we are just at the point where we're going to start making decisions about what comes next after J.J.'s. But I think we're going to be a little bit more careful about volume and timing. And the buck stops here on that.
Then the Clickbate Began
It makes a great deal of sense and is what we figured from the onset. Shortly after the dismal box office receipts from Solo, many sites couldn't wait to kill the Star Wars franchise. Many were still butt hurt about their opinions of The Last Jedi. Which are still unfounded, as fans complained that The Force Awakens was a rehash for A New Hope. They wanted something different, they got it. Now, they are angry because it wasn't what they had envisioned.
Sites began floating rumors that Disney was shutting down all standalone movies, solely based on the second film of standalones. They, quickly, forgot about the success of Rogue One two years earlier. We reported about how that was an asinine speculation and a story solely for clicks.
While some sites like to promote that the "fan backlash" was right, it is not so easy to claim. There are many reasons why the film failed to generate. Like many prequels, no one asked for a Han Solo prequel. No one really cared where he came from, not to mention someone other than Harrison Ford portraying the character. The online/public turmoil on the set didn't help the marketing campaign. Even for heavy Star Wars fans, the concept of a prequel Han Solo movie wasn't inspiring confidence. I don't think the "breathing" was a factor at all.
Lest we forget that there was a three month window between Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War. Both films managed to strike astronomical box office receipts. Black Panther was still in many theaters with Infinity War was released. However, people that were pissed about the whole Last Jedi release wanted Solo to fail. That was the traditional online pettiness that was strung together to make a story.
The Reality of All This
The original trilogy and prequel trilogy were based on a three-year timetable. This allowed stories to be written. Casting to be made. Edits to be done. Effects to be achieved. If you were doing a series of Star Wars movies to come out every other year, you need someone to head it. Think Lord of the Rings. Peter Jackson helms all three movies and filmed them all together. If you want that kind of timetable, you need three scripts done before you start it. Unfortunately, three different directors were tasked for an installment. None of the directors had time to fully complete the story.
What Disney found out, the hard way, is that not every production company is like Marvel. Their cinematic universe is like no other. Marvel's original philosophy was work on one film. Once it was completed, move on to the next one. That was their set idea. After they found the formula that worked, it was easy to begin expanding production to multiple movies at one time. However, their success was way before Disney got involved. Disney didn't purchase Marvel until the release of the original Avengers. They only got that Disney money at Phase Two.
Unfortunately, Star Wars has a wealth of possibilities, but none of them are established. Basing an environment on older stories featuring younger versions of character won't do it. Disney is, finally, understanding that you need to slow down. Decide what to make and move forward slowly. A yearly schedule isn't going to work. Unless, you have a sound starting point with an overall arch. The "backlash" had nothing to do with it. It's called growing pains. Everyone experiences them. Including uptight fans that can't evolve.

Continuing on with our tour through this cute little cottage, let's mosey through the rest of the house. (As a reminder, the listing is here. Part 1 and Part 2, in case you missed it.) So as not to drag this reveal out any longer than necessary, this is going to be a long, photo heavy post.
We probably spent less on this entire renovation than most people spend on the kitchen alone, so I am proud of what we were able to accomplish on our budget: new recessed lighting, a new window above the sink, all new cabinetry and hardware, countertops, sink, and faucet, durable luxury vinyl tile flooring, a new dishwasher and hood vent, a marble-topped rolling island, and a much improved layout. A new refrigerator would have been a nice addition also, but we did plan enough room for a full-sized fridge to be added. If I bought this house I would add a white subway tile backsplash and few well chosen accessories and this kitchen would be as cute as ever!
Instead of buying an expensive range hood vent, we used a traditional cabinet-mount version and asked the contractor to enclose the ducting with a custom wood box instead. I love how it turned out! And I love how the extra touch of wood ties in with the wood island and warms up the neutral space.
One of the best changes we made was to bring the laundry upstairs. Previously the hookups were in the deepest darkest corner of the basement. I don't love laundry in the kitchen, but we were able to separate the laundry area with the partial wall (beyond the stove). Now the laundry feels like a separate area that is within easy access to the bedrooms, a huge benefit to the new home owners.
And this is another look into the laundry area (the washer and dryer hookups are to the right, out of sight in this photo. The location accommodates both side-by-side or stackable units.) Beyond the laundry area is the mudroom leading to the back door and stairs to the basement.
This was a hot mess of mis-matched cabinetry, wallpaper, and weird electrical fixtures. I do kind of like the wood cabinet unit, especially the upper glass doors. I might have been inclined to find a way to reuse it, but as you can see by the photos, none of the drawers closed properly. And the homeowners had already gutted this kitchen at the point I was brought into the project.
Gutting the kitchen gave us the blank slate we needed to reconfigure the layout and update the electrical.
One simple thing we did that had a big impact was in the master closet. When it was added to the house, it was built out into the stairwell on the other side of the wall. You had to "shimmy" sideways around the big box just to descend the stairs. (Imagine doing that with a big laundry basket in hand!) You will see when I show you the stairway that this little slanted chunk we took out of the Master closet makes minimal difference here and much improved the basement access. We also widened the closet doors.
You may wonder why we didn't refinish the hardwood floors in this room, and I will tell you. We definitely considered it. But widening closet and bathroom doors left gaps in the floor that would have needed repairing, and in the end the homeowner liked the coziness of carpet in the bedrooms anyway. The wood in the second bedroom was in worse shape and the wood floor guy advised us not to try to refinish them.
The two bedrooms are joined by a Jack and Jill bath. The old doors into the bathroom were the funniest little elfish size. I loved the old doors in this house, but we found the closest match we could and replaced the bathroom doors with two new full-size doors.
Now check out this adorable bathroom! I don't have a true before photo, but believe me when I say this is a massive improvement.
We cleaned up and reused the original tub, but everything else in this bathroom is new. I fought to do tile work in the bathroom and even though it costs a little more II think the money was well spent.
The back mudroom is sunny and bright, so we simply cleaned it up by painting, adding hooks, and replacing the back door.
This is the door to the backyard and the closest entrance to the garage.
Heading down the stairs to the basement, this is where you had to make yourself very skinny and descend the stairs sideways. (Too bad I don't have a before photo!) The original construction work was very shoddy so our work in this area included lots of drywall repair, smoothing and leveling stairs, and of course, cleaning it all up with fresh coats of paint.
We couldn't spend a lot of money in the basement, but wanted to finish this portion of it to be clean and usable. There were two odd-sized door openings that would have required custom door solutions, so I turned to this tutorial to make screens that slide on metal piping. I think the result is fun and playful, though they will never be as solid as a real door. With an bigger budget we would have used actual smooth-sliding barn door hardware or framed in a real door.
Now these two rooms are comfortable and usable as bedroom or office space.
The photo below shows one of the doorways now covered by one of the new screens. (It was formerly covered by a cracked vinyl accordion door. You can see the challenges here. The concrete was uneven and it would have taken quite a bit of work to even this out and frame it properly for a door.
The rest of this basement beyond this opening is fairly large and great for storage. The ceiling is shorter and the floor higher, so it isn't ideal for finished space.


8 o'clock in the morning is nearing, the busy hour where the four feet of my older children are thumping on the squeaking wood floor.
I'm somewhat refreshed, being awakened six times by my sweet baby girl this night. I did get back to sleep though, up until one hour ago.
So I take this time to write, organize, and ponder. With time, and a bit of wisdom, I've grown to have a new outlook on life. Or to go back to what it is when we're young. When we wake up with zest, ready for a new adventure.
I now want to enjoy more the moments. To enjoy every season of life.
Yes, I'm now in the season of tiredness, bizarre nighttime, full time baby in arms. Of 6 year-old bursts. Of spelling out words and norms all the time. Of everything I've being warned [and told to fear] about parenting.
Instead I choose, as Albert Einstein once said, the other outlook on life. The one where we see everything as a miracle. And it changes everything.
I see three beautiful budding roses blooming under our care, nourished with attachment and continuum parenting. I see myself grow more than I had ever imagined and embrace many roles, wife, mom, writer, with more grace. I carve place and attention to the beauty of the day. I carve gratitude and wonder to enjoy every season.
I am grateful for the miracles.
Let's go enjoy this day. Because it won't come back.

Your new guilty pleasure coming in hot every Monday.
I am so excited to announce my new podcast with my good friend and co-host Blake Steven. The format of the show is designed to feel like a late night conversation over drinks. Over the course of season one we are going to get to know each other a little better as we take on hard topics and explore them through questions and angles that make you think. The goal is not only to have deep conversations but also to provoke questions and ideas that you didn't really think about before. So stayed tuned as we launch the first episode on February 11th.


Ten days ago, Amy M. Bennett, author of the Black Horse Campground mystery series, wrote about imbuing her books with local flavor. As a follow up, here are three of her New Mexican recipes that appear frequently in her books.
In the Black Horse Campground mysteries, campground owner, Corrie Black, hosts an enchilada dinner on alternate Fridays at the campground.
This is Corrie's recipe for red chili enchiladas, as handed down to her from her mother, who was born and raised in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Corrie uses whole dried chili pods, but the frozen puree is easier and just as good!
Heat oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic and flour and stir to make a roux, about two minutes or until golden brown. Add chili puree and water gradually, stirring well after each addition to eliminate lumps. Add oregano and salt and stir, bringing it to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 20-25 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
NOTE: Corrie and I both hate to clean up a big mess, so we usually tape sheets of aluminum foil to the walls and cabinets above the stove where we are making the enchiladas. Clean up is easy!
Pour sauce into a shallow pan and allow to cool slightly. Set up a large skillet or griddle (with a raised edge) on a burner over low heat, oil it well, and allow it to warm up. Mix cheese and onions together (or you can keep them separate) and have handy. Dip each tortilla into the chili sauce. Let excess drip off tortilla, then fry briefly in the oiled skillet, about 5 minutes for each side until they sizzle. (You will be thankful you lined the walls and cabinets with foil!) If the skillet is big enough, you can do three at a time. Remove to a large shallow pan and roll up a good-sized pinch (sorry, this is best measure I can think of!) of the cheese and onion mix evenly in each tortilla. Lay the rolled up tortillas side by side in a baking dish. When all the tortillas are fried, filled, rolled, and placed in the pan, drizzle the remaining sauce evenly over the enchiladas; then sprinkle the leftover cheese and onions over them as well. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes (just to heat through and melt the cheese). Serve with rice and beans. Top with sour cream if the heat is too much for you!
Makes 8 servings of three enchiladas each.
Posole is a traditional New Mexican stew made with pork, hominy, and chili (not to be confused with menudo!) and is often used to serve a crowd at church or community gatherings. You can use either red or green chile, pork or chicken, and the variations are given below. Serve with white bolillo or French rolls.
Combine water, pork or chicken, onion, and garlic and bring to a boil. Boil about one hour or until meat is done. (At this point, you can cool and chill the soup overnight, if you want to remove the hardened fat from the top.) Add hominy and chili (usually green for chicken, red for pork, but there's no law that says you can't switch it around!). If you want to cut the heat from the green chili, add the tomatoes. Serve the red chili posole with a garnish of radish and cabbage.
What do you serve a couple of hungry, tired lawmen on short notice? In my third Black Horse Campground mystery, No Vacancy, Corrie whips up her favorite comfort food for Rick and J.D. While traditionally served for breakfast or brunch, migas make a great quick supper as well!
Heat oil in skillet over medium heat and add the tortilla strips. Fry until almost golden. When they are starting to crisp, add the onion and jalapeno or serrano. Fry until tortilla strips are crispy, then add beaten eggs. Stir gently until eggs are almost at the desired doneness, then remove from burner. Sprinkle cheese over top and cover skillet until cheese is melted. Serves one, but you can double the recipe if you have a big enough skillet!
Well, darn, that made me hungry. I make posole but have a much simpler recipe. Will have to try Migas. Sounds yummy.


Link building has been a big focus for a lot of brands for the past few years. It allows their sites to get a boost in the SERPs and provides a new way to get more traffic back to their site. While link building is still important, public relations (PR) is currently taking center stage in the outreach efforts that can help build brand awareness, drive relevant traffic to your site, and improve your search rankings.
This was the topic of discussion in last week's #SEMrushchat, and we were joined by Gini Dietrich, the CEO of the PR firm, Arment Dietrich, who had a lot of great advice about how to create and utilize great PR content to improve your SEO. Check out our chat recap to see what Dietrich and our other chat participants had to say.
Q1. In your opinion, is it possible to replace link building with PR? Why or why not?
PR doesn't necessarily swoop in to replace link building as an entirely unique strategy; instead, PR offers a new strategy to get links back to your site as a result of interesting, engaging content. Therefore, both PR and link building can and should be closely aligned instead of trying to replace each other. You still need the latter, after all, to effectively drive traffic to your site and see an increase in page rankings.
PR is a one shot strategy.
Your link building campaigns, after all, will be most successful when they are combined with an outreach effort. Content that is PR-driven often can help to build strong brand awareness, and it is also rooted deep in great storytelling, which increases the emotional investment readers are willing to make. This means they are more likely to click back to your site through that link and find out what else you have to say. Due to the nature of public relations campaigns, which are sometimes distributed on more credible sites, this may also help get you more reputable and high-quality links.
A1. Show you care before you want them to care about you. If it's the right Influencer it should be a mutually beneficial relationship.
Similarly, PR campaigns can have the most impact if you are intentional about link building efforts. Knowing which links to place, and where, within your content will help you get the most traffic back to your site from your PR content. Link building skills are a must to maximize the opportunity you are getting from the PR exposure.
Q2. How do you find influencers in your niche to build a relationship with them so they will link to you?
Building relationships with influencers in your niche — which can include everyone from popular bloggers to keynote speakers — can be one of the most important parts of your PR and link building strategy. You will be a lot more likely to get your content shared and distributed on great sites if you have a good relationship with the individual running the site first.
There are a number of different and excellent ways to find influencers in your niche that you can reach out to. Social media, however, will provide you with the largest pool of different influencers in one place; you can find everyone from journalists to bloggers to speakers to industry experts and more. You can use Facebook Groups, LinkedIn, Twitter, and even sites like Quora to find industry leaders and influencers who are open to social engagement and relationship building. Search for hashtags or topics of discussion, and see who is involved in the online communities you are in.
A2) Search (web, social media), check Twitter lists, ask your client which blogs they read.
Start helping them. Build relationships.
And the key part is the relationship building. It is often much more effective to build an actual relationship with someone than to just ask for something up front (including just offering to pay them, as many influencers in the journalism and blogging fields may find that to be unethical). Help them and engage with them on social media; it doesn't need to be an in-person friendship, a virtual relationship can work perfectly fine. Talk to them, instead of at them. Link to and share their content long before you ask for a favor in return.
If you have checked out social media and still haven't found the influencers you are looking for, you can check out other tools like Buzzsumo, which makes it easy for you to find influencers, see what they share, and evaluate how well their content performs. Sometimes the most obvious answer will be right in front of you in the form of brand advocates.
In some industries, you may even have your best luck offline. Industry conferences, trade shows, or local networking communities can provide opportunities to connect with peers and influencers face-to-face. While virtual is easiest and has become commonplace, having an in-person interaction never hurts.
Q3. What are your top tips on using PR strategies for Link Building?
When we asked our chat participants about their top tips for using PR strategies to generate more link building opportunities, they had a lot of great (and diverse!) advice to share.
One of the most common tips was to do your research really, really well. Gini Dietrich said that she starts by doing a Google search for her keyword, and then recommends creating a list of the publications and blogs that come up. These are sites that you would want to share your content on, for your content to be published on or that you would want a link from. After all, you don't just want your content to live on your site; you want it to be where most people in your target audience will see it. In many cases, that means having some content on other big-name sites, too.
With that in mind, you should make distribution part of your content planning from the beginning; you don't want to wait until it is done and published before considering this. Ask yourself what publication would it best be suited for, who the audience is for the piece, and how you can best reach them. Sometimes, the answer will be on your blog, but when it comes to PR, there will be plenty of times when it won't.
You will also want to optimize the actual content you are publishing. This means choosing unique, story-driven content that will resonate with influencers and your audience alike. You should choose your links well, linking back to valuable content but never to service or home pages. You can use your author bios to do this strategically instead. Preferably, use full links instead of URL shorteners.
A3 Don't be self promotional!
Ultimately, it comes down to being human and building those valuable relationships. This takes time, and you should eliminate automation or avoid it as much as possible. Use tools like SEMrush, Buzzsumo, and HARO to track down everyone from journalists to bloggers and then build relationships with them. You can set up event interviews with influencers, or hire them to speak at your event, but remember that it should never be an "I did this so now you have to do this for me." Instead, relationship building will be mutually beneficial over time.
Q4. What are some examples of PR content that can be optimized?
PR content may not sound particularly interesting as a title, but the types of content you can create for PR purposes are very diverse.
You can, for example, write guest posts and submit them to publications. Not only will you get the valuable link building and relationship building, but you will also gain some credibility for being published on these sites. And if your content is well-written and valuable enough (and doesn't resemble a thinly-veiled sales pitch), you shouldn't have a problem landing any of those big publication guest spots. You can also be interviewed or conduct interviews for big publications. Even just giving or obtaining expert quotes can serve this purpose well.
Presenting original research or original data in the form of case studies can also be a great way to go. This is content that will be immensely valuable to your readers and industry peers, and since it is hard data and it is only yours, the odds of gaining backlinks is very high.
Written content isn't the only option, either. Diversify what you are creating. Appear on or host podcasts, do live video events and don't forget webinars since you will likely reach a different audience with each. You can also create infographics or interactive data representations, both of which are engaging and easy to share. And you can never go wrong with custom images.
If your content doesn't seem to get enough traction, you can always check out pay per click options, like Facebook Ads or Google Adwords to help it get more visibility and engagement.
Q5. What are some metrics that you look at when measuring your PR and SEO efforts?
Your PR efforts will have a number of different goals, and SEO may only be one of them. That being said, it is still important to monitor how your public relations content is impacting your SEO and link building so you can decide if any changes need to be made.
Over time, you should start to see changes in both your SERPs and your domain authority. If your PR campaigns are truly having the effect they should on your SEO, you should see gradual increases in both of these factors, which should lead to a direct increase in web traffic from all sources — organic and referral included — as a result. This should translate into more backlinks being acquired, and more contact form submissions and conversions. Ultimately, after all, you want your marketing goals to be tied to concrete, financial business goals.
A5: Website Visitors, Backlinks range in size, Mentions, Qualified Leads, Engagement, Social Shares to improve overall reputation, Bounce Rate etc. are important metric when measuring the PR and SEO efforts.
As the results from your PR content become more widespread, you will not only see more traffic, but you will see better quality in traffic. Users coming to your site will be more relevant to your brand, and you will see an increase in things like CTR and time spent on the page, while bounce rate may decrease. Eventually, this should lead to an increase in ROI.
You should also see an increase in brand mentions, which any social listening tool can help you identify. In terms of social media, you should start seeing more traction on your social content, including engagement in the form of retweets, likes, shares, and general conversation. Make sure you are monitoring the conversations about your brand to make sure that the sentiment is positive.
4: Brand Name in Google's Related Searches.
That is all for today! Make sure you join us this week on #SEMrushchat as we host a Content Writing Bootcamp with special guest, Brian Honigman!
Particularly for startups, the most 'natural' times that PR coverage (and backlinks) come easily is during the very first launch of the product and when the startup raises funds. I believe it was one of the AirBnb founders who said "If you launch and don't get any attention, launch again. We launched 3 times." During both these times, coverage from tech/media platforms typically come very easily and I'd recommend that any press releases that go out have links pointing back to the main site to really take advantage.
Really great recap, Becky! I also loved that you did the quick response recaps during the chat. Very, very smart. Thanks, again, for having me!
Thanks so much for joining in, Gini! This was a really great chat, I learned a lot too!
It sure was, thanks for reading!
Link building is like diarrhea... painful and hard to handle.
A lot of SEOs don't even DO link building.
HAHA! I think you could say that about a lot of digital marketing tactics ;) Thanks for reading, Jennifer!
Building relationships is a huge part of link building for sure. But sooner or later you need to be able to *leverage* your relationships for those links. This is an excellent guide on precisely how to do that. Thanks for putting in the hard work Becky to compile this info into a blog post every week. Sometimes people are just too busy to join the #SEMrushchat on twitter!
I completely agree, Melanie! I am just starting to learn more and more about PR and in my eyes, you really can't do one without the other! Looking forward to seeing how you can help SEMrush build our community, happy you enjoy my posts!


The World Health Organization said anti-vaccine views were a "top 10 global health threat" in 2019.
The video-sharing site said it took the step because many of the anti-vaccine channels were promoting "harmful or dangerous " views.
"Any misinformation on medical topics is especially concerning," it said in a statement.
Alongside the decision to remove ads, it said it was also trying to make "more authoritative content" easier to find on the benefits of vaccination and was also stopping anti-vaccine videos appearing in recommendation lists.
It was also planning to create "information panels" on pages that listed sources where people can fact-check information for themselves.
It said: "Like many algorithmic changes, these efforts will be gradual and will get more and more accurate over time."
The action follows comments in January by Prof Dame Sally Davies, the UK`s chief medical officer, who criticised social media for fuelling vaccine fears.
Myths peddled about the dangers of vaccines on social media was one reason parents weren`t taking their children to get the MMR vaccine, said Dame Sally.
She added: "A number of people, stars, believe these myths - they are wrong."
YouTube`s decision is believed to have been prompted by complaints from large advertisers who did not want their content playing alongside videos promoting anti-vaccine views. Some companies are believed to have pulled all their advertising until YouTube acted.
The firms were looking at where their adverts were appearing, following reports last week about paedophiles posting inappropriate comments on many videos featuring children.
Hasbro, Nestle, AT&T, Kellogg, Epic Games and others pulled ads following the report.

Bernie Parks Encourages Smoking
Jacob Sullum | 8.13.2008 3:36 PM
Los Angeles City Council Member Bernard Parks wants to ban smoking "wherever people congregate or there is an expectation of people being present." In short, in addition to the existing state ban on smoking in indoor workplaces, he wants to ban smoking in virtually all outdoor locations. Parks claims "secondhand smoke is the number one cause of preventable health disease in America."
This will come as a surprise to—well, almost everyone, including the CDC, which says smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the U.S. It attributes 400,000 deaths a year to smoking, more than 100 times its estimate for the number of deaths caused by exposure to secondhand smoke. But it's understandable that Parks' figures are out of whack, since he thinks "research has shown that inhaling secondhand smoke is more harmful than actually smoking." In other words, unlike every other poison known to man, tobacco smoke becomes more dangerous in smaller doses. By this logic, smoke-free air is more dangerous than secondhand smoke.
Parks seems genuinely confused. But as I've noted, this sort of confusion among policy makers has been fostered by public health officials and anti-smoking activists who have hyped the dangers of secondhand smoke so much that they've undermined warnings about smoking. "If you take this message seriously," Michael Siegel writes on his tobacco policy blog, "a rational nonsmoker might actually start smoking. After all, according to the message, it's better to smoke yourself than to be exposed to secondhand smoke."
Siegel, who has long supported bans on smoking in the workplace, believes bans like the one proposed by Parks go too far:
Anti-smoking advocates…are promoting such extreme proposals that go far beyond the documented scientific evidence that they need to create their own facts in order to justify these proposals.
You can't credibly argue that smoking needs to be banned everywhere outdoors to protect the health of nonsmokers using the actual truth about the severity of health risk from secondhand smoke exposure. There simply is no evidence that a few wisps of secondhand smoke, as one might encounter from someone smoking on a sidewalk or in a street, parking lot, or park puts people's health at risk and represents a significant public health problem.
I agree with Siegel that broad outdoor smoking bans are not justified by any health risk that secondhand smoke poses. But unlike him, I'm also against government-imposed smoking bans on private property, including businesses as well as residences. And Parks, for all his fanaticism, offers an argument that supports this position, saying his aim is to "move smokers and smoking away from people who do not choose to either smoke or inhale secondhand smoke." What if we had indoor locations where people were allowed to smoke and where everyone who entered knew about this rule? Maybe people also could have a drink or a bite to eat in these places, which would be restricted to customers who "choose to either smoke or inhale secondhand smoke." Surely this is an idea Parks could get behind.

Q: Can/Should a http read_timeout be retried? I'm on a network that usually causes a ton of connection timeout issues, and ocasionally I'm running into read timeout issues as well. Retrying the code whenever a connect timeout happens fixes the problem with connecting to the server. Is is safe to retry the code whenever I get a read_timeout, or whould the response become corrupted? I'm using Ruby, with Net::HTTP client, but I guess this could apply to other languages as well.

A: A read_timeout means that the server did not send any data within the expected timeout. The response becoming corrupted is less likely as this is TCP.
To answer if it's safe or not to retry depends on what operation you're performing and/or any guarantees the service you're interacting with gives you.
In general GET should be safe to retry.
POST/PUT may need special handling (i.e. rereading some state before deciding to retry) as this usually means that something changes on the server.
