Under-23s to host Manchester United at Colney
Norwich City's Under-23s are back in action at the Colney Training Centre on Friday for the visit of Manchester United (2pm kick-off).
The Canaries are aiming to make it two victories in succession following last week's win over Newcastle United.
A brace from Nelson Oliveira fired Matt Gill's side to victory last Friday to put City fifth in the Division Two table.
They face a United side who were relegated from Division One last season but currently sit third in the league table.
The Red Devils hold the only unbeaten record in the division with three wins and three draws from their six matches so far.
Last time out, goals from Tahith Chong and Joshua Bohui saw them comfortably beat Middlesbrough 2-0.
You can follow updates of the match at Colney by following our Twitter account. We'll have reaction after the final whistle on canaries.co.uk.
Please note – although fans are welcome to watch the matches at Colney they are advised that due to the extensive building works on site there is very limited parking.
What parking there is available is strictly on a first-come, first served basis and therefore supporters are advised to share transport or seek alternative methods of getting to the training ground – a drop off area at the gates will be employed on the day of a game.
Under-23s beaten by Manchester United
Norwich City Under-23s were beaten 1-0 by Manchester United at the Colney Training Centre.
In a match of few chances, the visitors took one of theirs in midway through the second-half when Aidan Barlow's low finish found into the bottom corner and it proved to be the difference.
Matt Gill welcomed Ben Marshall to his starting eleven as the summer signing returned to action following illness. There was a spot once again for Nelson Oliveira, with Alfie Payne and Ant Spyrou made their returns to the starting XI.
City began positively at Colney and they had the first meaningful chance of note on seven minutes. Oliveira worked a shooting opportunity on the edge of the box but shot straight at United keeper Matek Kovar with his right-boot.
There was an injury scare moments later when a late challenge left Simon Power requiring treatment to his ankle – luckily he was able to continue.
United grew into the first-half and looked sharp in possession although City were defending well and restricted the visitors to limited chances. They best they could muster was when Zac Dearnley found some room in the area but scuffed his effort wide on 20 minutes.
The majority of the first-half was played in the middle of the park with neither side going close to a goal. Ciaren Jones let fly on 38 minutes after corner was half-cleared by Kovar was equal to his strike, but that was the best City could produce.
City dominated possession in the early second-half exchanges but the visitors were defending resolutely and seemed happy to hit their opponents on the counter attack.
As the match approached the final 20 minutes, United grabbed the lead. A cutback from Josh Bohui was controlled and finished well by Barlow in the area.
City had an opportunity to respond right away when Marshall surged clear however his miscued his left-footed effort from the edge of the area and shot wide.
Gill turned his hand and brought on Tom Scully and Bilal Kamal for the final 15 minutes as City probed for an equaliser. Spyrou wasted a great chance on 78 minutes when he blazed over from inside the area and things got worse for the forward when he was sent off for a second bookable offence.
Devonte Aransibia skied an effort from the edge of the box in stoppage time and Oliveira headed over as the Canaries lost for the first time at Colney this season.

I'll be sowing annual poppies, whose petals and leaves are more delicate than those of Oriental poppies. Corn poppy (Papaver rhoeas) once dotted the grain fields of Europe with its blood red flowers.
These flowers were immortalized in the poem Flander's Fields, symbolizing lives lost in World War I. On Memorial and Veteran's Day, red tissue-paper "corn poppies" are still distributed in memory of wars' victims. Shirley poppy is a kind of corn poppy that has white lines along the edges of its petals. Corn and Shirley poppies begin blooming shortly after spring-flowering bulbs have finished their show, and continue blooming through July.
Thus far, I've let greenhouse temperatures drop no lower than about 38 degrees F. During bright, sunny days, of course, temperatures push up into the 80s. An exhaust fan keeps temperatures from getting too high, which, with lows in the 30s, would wreak havoc with plant growth, at the very least causing lettuce, mustard, and arugula to go to seed and lose quality too soon.
Adding just a few degrees at the bottom end of the temperature scale will spur growth in the newly sprouting lettuce, arugula, onion, and leek seedlings. This new minimum temperature of 43 degrees Fahrenheit strikes a congenial balance between plant growth and the cost and conservation of energy, propane in this case.
Fortunately, seeds need little or, in some cases, no light to sprout. Some people use the warmth atop their refrigerator for seed germination; the top of my refrigerator isn't warm at all. Some people germinate their seeds at a warm spot in their house, such as near a heating duct; my home, heated mostly with wood, has no such oases. The temperatures near the wood stove swing over too wide a temperature range for good germination.
Years ago I invested in a thermostatically controlled heating mat, made especially for gardening. The mat is in the greenhouse, so even if greenhouse temperatures drop to 43 degrees F., my seed flats sit with their bottoms soaking up 75 degree warmth from the mat below.
That's how much warmth is needed to get the pepper and eggplant seeds I sowed this week to sprout.

According to a report in the New York Post, Snooki, 24, is about three months into her pregnancy; the child was reportedly fathered by boyfriend Jionni LaValle. The story has been picked up by multiple media outlets; Polizzi's rep gave People magazine a "no comment," but Marc Malkin of E! tweeted that a source confirmed the Post story and that Snooki is indeed with child.
This is meaningful news for a couple of reasons. First, it opens up a whole new world of Snooki-related plotlines for reality TV, as well as merchandising opportunities. (The Post story notes that the better known half of Team Meatball plans to "bankroll her mommy-to-be status into becoming 'the next Kourtney Kardashian,' " which gives the young girls of America a whole new answer to the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?") Second, the procreation of "Jersey Shore" stars provides additional confirmation that 2012 will indeed bring on the apocalypse.

Although Snooki may not have chosen to enter mommyhood for career reasons, it is fortuitous that this is happening at a moment when "Jersey Shore" has faced ratings problems as well as the growing sense that its days of pop cultural relevancy may be numbered.

Several social media channels underwent some massive changes and developments this past week. The following list compiles all of them.
From now onward, Facebook would be aligning its view patterns with video metrics. It will now be focusing on how many times a video is watched to avoid repetition and monotony in reports. Facebook has made note of the fact that users have the ability to tweak around, and replay certain parts of the video multiple times. Therefore, the application is updated such that three second and ten second video views will not be included in rewatched seconds, after rewinding.
This will roll out globally soon, in about two weeks.
The Facebook platform just introduced two new features to the Facebook and Instagram applications to help its users time their online hours, and restrict their Internet surfing minutes. With the tools, which are already made available to people, they would be able to not only record all their online time, but also be able to set alarms, to remind themselves the violation of self-imposed time limit.
WhatsApp is expanding its business tools with the launch of WhatsApp Business API. With this new feature, medium and large businesses can send promotional and non-promotional messages to their customers, e.g. appointments and reminders, etc. The companies will be charged a fix amount for this service. Initially, this feature will be available to only 90 businesses, but will soon be made available to others.
Facebook will disable the usage of friend lists to view posts and shares from specific people in one feed, after the 9th of August. This new update is only available for iOS users. These users can still, however, view feed on most recent orders.
Facebook is releasing three new ad solutions to help gaming advertisers connect with their most valuable players. These solutions include playable ads, retention optimization and minimum return on ad spend bidding. While playable ads have been rolled out globally, the other two would be made available by September of this year.
YouTube is attempting to make its desktop experience for vertical videos better for its users. Previously videos, which were shot vertically, i.e. standard (16:9) and older (4:3), were adapted according to the screen such that some black screen was added beside the video to make it square. However, for now, the video player would automatically adapt to computer screens such that no black screen would be added.
Apparently, Facebook will now allow users to also send a personal message to people, when sending friend requests. This feature was recently spotted by Demian Ross, but is not yet available globally.
Previously, the social medium allowed third party users to post on the behalf of independent users, on their timelines. However, from now onward, in the spirit to improve privacy and to limit access of third party sources, Facebook is no longer going to allow this to happen. Moreover, it is also going to shut down thousands of inactive applications as well.
Facebook has withdrawn the option of automatic cross-tweeting from Twitter to Facebook from its users. Twitter announced this recently, and shared that this is because of Facebook's new policy update.
With this new update, users can now engage in group calls, both audio and video. This feature is developed with poor connectivity issues kept in mind. Hence, users can avail this opportunity even when Internet connection is not very fast. A maximum of 4 people can engage in this new conversation style.
Snapchat has released a new voice recognition lens, which is sensitive to simple voice commands, such as love, hi and yes. It is reported that five to six of these will be made available by next week.
Snapchat has begun testing stickers created by creators. This new feature is a part of Snapchat's Storyteller's Pilot Program, under which the platform aims to connect businesses and brands to application's most popular content makers.
Currently, everyone sees the same navigation bar, which consists of News Feed, Notification, Menu, Watch and Marketplace. However, with this new update, users will have access to News Feed, Notifications and Menu shortcuts on the navigation bar. The other slots will be filled with icons which are most frequently used by the user.
LinkedIn has launched a redesigned reporting experience, with which estimating campaign's overall performance is easier. The features which come as parts of this new update include new navigation tools, faster-loading data and improved search capabilities.
In its effort to make the domain healthier for its users, Twitter has been developing several new features. It has recently released guidelines for live video chats to build a safer service.
Facebook has vowed to train at least 1 million people across the United States in digital skills. To do this, the platform is initiating in-person training programs, offering online classes, and much more as well.
WhatsApp Tests on a "Mark as Read" Feature with a Small Percentage of Users.
You Can Now Report Inappropriate Predictions Made by Google and YouTube.

Hachalu Hundessa – Ethiopia's murdered musician who sang for freedom
Leave a Comment on Hachalu Hundessa – Ethiopia's murdered musician who sang for freedom
More than 80 people have been killed in two days of unrest in Ethiopia following the killing of prominent singer Hachalu Hundessa.
The 34-year-old had emerged as a powerful political voice of the Oromo ethnic group, and had made many enemies during his musical career.
Two suspects were arrested after Hachalu Hundessa was shot dead while driving in the capital, Addis Ababa on Monday evening. However, police have not yet revealed a motive for the killing and no charges have been brought against the suspects.

Hachalu Hundessa's funeral is taking place in his hometown of Ambo.
BBC Afaan Oromoo's Bekele Atoma writes about the musician who was a thorn in the flesh of successive governments.
Hachalu Hundessa is survived by his wife and two daughters/bbc.com
A former political prisoner who grew up looking after cattle, Hachalu Hundessa rose to become one of Ethiopia's biggest music stars, mesmerising fans with his songs about romance and political freedom – topics that he easily blended into his lyrics.
Hachalu Hundessa's father, who used to work in the electricity department in the city of Ambo, aspired for his son to become a doctor, but he showed little interest in medicine.
However, from an infant, Hachalu Hundessa showed a passion for music and singing, with the encouragement of his mother, while he looked after cows on the family's farmland on the outskirts of Ambo in the Oromia region, the heartland of Ethiopia's largest ethnic group, the Oromo.
"I used to sing whatever came to my head," he recalled in a BBC Afaan Oromoo interview in 2017.
Hachalu Hundessa jailed for five years
One of eight children, Hachalu was born in 1986 in Ambo – a city about 100km (60 miles) west of the capital, Addis Ababa.
It was at the forefront of the campaign by Oromos for self-rule in a nation where they felt repressed under a government that had banned opposition groups and jailed critics.
Hachalu went to school in Ambo, and joined student groups campaigning for freedom.
At the age of 17 in 2003, Hachalu was imprisoned for five years for his political activities.
Source bbc.com
His father kept his morale high in prison, telling him during visits that "prison makes a man stronger".
Hachalu became increasingly politicised in prison, as he increased his knowledge about Ethiopia's history, including its rule by emperors and autocrats.
Whilst incarcerated in Ambo prison he also developed his music skills.
"I did not know how to write lyrics and melodies until I was put behind bars. It is there that I learned," he said in the 2017 interview.
During his time in jail, he wrote nine songs and released his first album Sanyii Mootii (Race of the King) in 2009, a year after walking free.

Hurricane season is upon us in the Caribbean. With internet access anywhere from good to non-existent, we need a reliable source of info about possible activity. I've received our first Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook email, so I'll share what I have set up, then I'll update as the season progresses.
This is based on an article from The Boat Galley written in 2006, titled Tropical-Storm-Tracking-with-Sailmail-Revised-2-06. I've tweaked it with updated info and to include references to our Iridum GO! (see blog, "Setting up my Iridium GO!") The goal it to use Saildocs to receive text forecasts on our Iridium email (and regular email when available). Secondly, research and bookmark links for low-bandwidth graphic forecasts for the Opera Mini browser (see blog "Slow internet and/or using less data") when closer tracking is required.
Now it's time to go to saildocs.com and get familiar with their service. The following are the send/sub requests you might need for hurricane season.

Is that clear as mud? I had to save to the blog, so I wouldn't risk losing all my notes! I can't promise this is all accurate, but it's a start. Please share any ideas (or point out any errors) below. Good luck out there.

Description: The Recumbent Day Trip Pannier is designed to mount behind the seat. We originally designed this bag for the Bike-E Company and manufactured them under that logo, so you might have seen one of these around. The bag has a 2-point attachment system on the top and 2 Hook & Loop Closures on the side that should fit most recumbents with a full seat. We improved the bag adding a 2-bungee attachment that can go to rear eyelets if your bike has those instead. The bag comes with a shoulder strap, 2 stretch pockets for water bottles, and a dual rear pocket w/ reflective tape tacked down with loops for a flashing light. The bag is quit ridged with an aluminum stiffener with rear and bottom HDPE stiffeners. The bag can fold down when not in use. An optional Bright Yellow rain cover is also available.

Happy New Year and Best of 2015!


In our typical manner, what started as a discussion about what we did this week worked it's way around to the impact of foot health on our productivity, followed by a discussion of how Ursula isn't REALLY celebrating the completion of her newest book. After all that, I talk to Claire A. Miller, who is a librarian and crafter, and has some really cool things to share.
Discussion of shoes – after overseas flight my knee is not happy and my doctor recommended Hoka One One Bondi 6 – they have massive cushioning .
It didn't occur to me that there would be a Letters episode so quickly after being surprised by Claire's interview, or I would have commented sooner. Yes, Kevin, she kept it a secret from me, just like I did to her. It was a lovely surprise to tune into PA and see Claire's name. I'm proud of her for stepping up and being interviewed. Maybe next year we can doing a double-trouble interview if all of our schedules allow, and see where we are with our systems.
Also, the Habitica part…I almost spit my drink across the room. I had my husband listen to that part and he doubled over laughing.

The museum was visited by the grandson of the last paper maker from Duszniki
Karl II Wiehr was the last owner of the paper mill in Duszniki. In April 1939, he sold the decommissioned paper mill to the city of Duszniki in the hope that the municipal authorities would establish a museum in it. However, he did not live to see the opening of the museum, as he died in 1941. The Polish authorities only commissioned the museum in 1968.
Karl Wiehr and his wife Hedwig had a son Alex and daughter Maria. Maria married Rudolf Herrmann and settled in Wrocław. At the end of the war in 1944, she and her children lived in the paper mill in Duszniki, which was safer than Wrocław. After being displaced in 1945, they settled in Bavaria. Their youngest son is Willibald, who based on his mother's memories, wrote the book Spurensuche. Mia Erzählt, in which he presented descriptions of the paper mill from the times of her childhood and youth.
On 1 September, Willibald Herrmann, accompanied by his wife Ursula and his children and grandchildren, visited the Museum of Papermaking. The family visited the expositions and took part in the papermaking workshops, and the event was perpetuated by impressing their hands on a sheet of handmade paper The grandson of Karl Wiehr expressed his appreciation to the museum for such remarkable care for the historical paper mill.
Currently, the Duszniki paper mill is one of 105 Historical Monuments – objects of major significance for Polish culture. In 2019, the mill was nominated by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Poland for inclusion to the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Football widow Samantha: I feel like I'VE won the World Cup since my Colin built his shed!
Girlfriend tells of her relief as dad-of-two constructs £1,000 haven in the garden after she tells him he can only watch a handful of Brazil 2014 games in their home

A mum who feared becoming a 'World Cup widow' says her prayers have been answered after her partner built a special shed in his garden to watch the football.
Colin Salt, 37, spent £1,000 on the second living room after being warned by girlfriend Samantha Evans, 34, that he would only be allowed to watch a handful of the dozens of matches from the tournament in Brazil.
The outhouse has become a sensation in Newton Heath, Manchester, after he kitted it out with two loungers, a 32-inch TV, an ice freezer, a beer fridge and even its own bar.
And as he gets ready to welcome more than a dozen neighbours and pals to the 'football haven' for Thursday night's crunch England v Uruguay match, his partner says she is over the moon.
Samantha, who has two daughters with Colin, Kelsey 13, and Caitlin, eight, says all three of them can now watch the shows they enjoy, including The Kardashians, Coronation Street and Eastenders.
And she is even planning a girly get-together for all the wives and girlfriends whilst their fellas watch footy in the shed.
She said: "I think it's turned out absolutely fantastic. It's miles better than I thought it would be.
"I couldn't stand the thought of sitting and watching football all the time. It really gets on my nerves.
"Normally when it's on I pop round to my mum's or go out, as it does my head in.
World Cup shed
"With the World Cup he's been watching three games a day - it's been getting beyond a joke.
"Now he's built this I can just leave him to it and watch my programmes.
"If it was a cold, damp shed with nothing in it I might feel a bit bad.
"But he has everything he needs in there apart from a toilet.
"I thought it was just going to be somewhere to sit but it's got its own bar and everything.
"I might make him watch all the City games in there as well, though we want to use it as a gym once the World Cup has finished."
Since building his football haven, Colin has become the envy of his male neighbours on the street.
And teaching assistant Samantha says she is shocked at what a talking point the building has become.
She said: "I can't believe how popular it's been. Loads of people have been asking to come round.
"I might have to do a little party for all the wives and girlfriends now."

Disclosure: I received a costume at no charge in exchange for my honest review.
A Disney Princess costume makes a perfect Christmas gift for a little girl (or little girl at heart). Children love to play dress up and what little girl doesn't want to be a princess? Reaching beyond the traditional Halloween costume, these quality costumes are so much fun!
I received the Alice in Wonderland princess costume (for adults) and was truly impressed with the detail throughout. This princess dress comes with a petticoat so the dress skirt floats out and little glovettes for wearing on both wrists. The dress is a sheer light blue fabric skirt, gathered at the waist with a blue satiny bodice.
The bodice features a row of tiny black buttons, lace sleeves and ribbon edging along the neckline. Most impressive of all is the detail of the decorative stitching along the bottom of the skirt. The flowers, bunnies, and birds are so soft and velvety!
This amazing collection of princess costumes also includes Jasmine, Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, and Aurora. But don't forget your little prince...they have costumes for boys too! Check out all their fabulous Disney costumes for boys, girls, babies, and adults.

To foster community involvement and growth by protecting and nurturing urban greenspace through collaborative environmental stewardship and experiential education.
Downtown Greens was founded by Laura Shepherd after she and her friends, Lisa Biever and Rita Carroll, began gardening behind Shepherd's home at 202 Charles Street, Fredericksburg, Virginia (now the Downtown Greens office). Initially, Laura planted on unused land during her spare time. Curious neighborhood children began visiting her little garden and helping out. The more responsible and motivated kids received their own plot to tend. Soon it was clear that land was needed to keep the concept of a shared garden space alive in Downtown Fredericksburg.
With the help of Eric Olsen and Mark Jacobson, a nonprofit organization was formed in 1995. Their nonprofit status allowed Downtown Greens to help purchase the land behind Laura's home. By this time, Downtown Greens had expanded into a community garden, with free plots given to local residents to start their own vegetable gardens.
Four years later, an additional parcel of land was purchased across the street at Princess Anne and Dixon Streets. An eco-friendly "green" garden shed was erected in 2004 on this property to store tools and supplies.
In 2007, Ryan Anderson founded the Marenje Marimba group with a handful of homeschooled students. They were soon joined by children in the Downtown Greens neighborhood. The homemade instruments add an element of organic sound to the gardening projects.
Today, Downtown Greens promotes environmental care by preserving two urban garden areas, using sustainable gardening methods, teaching children through a weekly Garden Club, and raising bees with the Urban Bees program.

Nurses take 75-minute walk at Liberty Medical
THE BALTIMORE EVENING SUN
A strike by registered nurses at the Liberty Medical Center in Baltimore ended in a tentative settlement today after just 75 minutes of picketing outside the hospital, at 2600 Liberty Heights Ave.
Larry Grosser, a negotiator for 260 members of the Professional Staff Nurses Association at Liberty, said the walkout by about 80 nurses ended at 8:15 a.m. after bargainers reached agreement on a new two-year contract. The pact includes options to reopen talks on wages and pensions after one year.
Nurses at Liberty "are already the highest-paid in the city, so that [wages] was not an issue in this," Grosser said.
The nurses' last contract expired June 30, but its terms were extended until today while talks continued. Major unresolved issues leading to the brief strike included pension and health benefits.
Grosser said the nurses finally won elimination of a Social Security offset in their pension. The offset had reduced retirees' pension benefits by the amount they received from Social Security. They also won a 9 to 10 percent decrease in their health insurance contributions.
The tentative agreement was to be submitted for a ratification vote next Thursday.
Hospital spokeswoman Marie Givens said the hospital management was "pleased" with the tentative agreement. The hospital has been able "to provide for appropriate wages and benefits for our employees while maintaining fiscal stability for the institution."


Visiting the hygienist regularly is important to help maintain good oral hygiene and anticipate problems which may arise. Our hygienist will professionally clean your teeth (scale and polish) and offer a programme of oral care which is appropriate to your needs and lifestyle.
How often Do I need to go to the oral hygienist?
While dentists and specialists like endodontists and periodontists help to treat tooth and gum problems when they arise, dental hygienists help to prevent them from occurring in the first place. This is why regular visits to your local dental hygienist are essential. At Cuffley Village Dental we suggest our clients visit the dental hygienist at least once a year.
A dental hygienist will professionally scale and clean your teeth. They will also give you advice on keeping your teeth clean and your gums healthy. Your visit to the oral hygienist is a good a time to ask any questions you have about tooth and gum health.
What do I do to prepare for a visit to the dental hygienist?
There are a few things you can do before you visit the oral hygienist, like ensuring your teeth are clean and you have flossed. But what's more important, as your local dental hygienist will tell you, is that you keep your teeth clean in between visits. Brush your teeth at least twice a day for at least two minutes every time. Floss regularly and avoid sugary foods.


The total realized net returns in Q2 of 2016 exceeded the metric in all four quarters of 2015.
The realized net return of Estonia, Finland and Spain all far outpaced the performance of the S&P 500 (US). The total realized net return for these three countries was 23.48% and 19.46% in Q1 and Q2 respectively whereas the S&P 500 returned only 2.9% and 1.4% in the first and second quarter.
Both Finland and Estonia exceeded their targeted returns by 4.11% and 5.00% respectively.
Spain leads the group in cumulative realized returns so far in 2016.
The HR rating has yielded the strongest return (31.60%) in the Estonian market whereas the F rating was the strongest return (28.60%) for Spain and E (24.67%) for Finland.
Ratings B through HR have delivered substantial double digit returns.
Every rating except A has exceeded the corresponding target return.
On average all ratings (excepting A) have yielded 6.67% more than the targeted return.
The HR rating offered the greatest return (though highest risk) of any rating in not only Estonia but also Finland and Spain.
The median realized return among all ratings in 2016 Q2 was 18.38%.
Every rating in the Finnish market outperformed the targeted return.
The E rating generated the highest return with 24.67%.
The median realized return across all ratings in 2016 Q2 was 18.41%.
The B rating offered reasonable risk mitigation while also bringing a return of 14.83%.
The F rating experienced a 28.60% return which is higher than any return within the Finnish market and third highest across all the countries served.
The average return across all ratings was 19.33% which is higher than the same metric for Estonia (18.66%) or Finland (19.20%).
The greatest difference between returns in Spain in Q2 was 15.13% which positions between Estonia (28.09%) and Finland (10.19%).
Market conditions have driven the targeted returns in Spain higher than any of the other countries.
The realized return continues an established trend of outperforming the targeted figure.
Though some countries experienced slight declines in returns in 2013 and 2014 the totals still represent double digit gains for every one of the last seven years. The average return for 2009-2015 is 19.87%.

Port of Lewiston Crossing Bridges: Network Forges Ahead
Tue, August 30, 2016 | Posted by Alexander Dangel
Port of Lewiston's open access dark fiber network continues to move toward completion. Construction crews are burying fiber lines at multiple project sites around Lewiston. In the past few weeks, the network crossed to the north side of Clearwater River via the Memorial Bridge, where it will link to Whitman County's fiber network.
A recent article from the Port of Lewiston listed completed sections of the network,
"So far, it reaches major employers such as St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Lewis-Clark State College, Regence and the Vista Outdoor plant at 11th and Snake River avenues."
The article also outlined the projects to be completed by September 1st,
"They will reach the industrial district by the Lewiston-Nez Perce County Regional Airport, Clearwater Paper, Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories and the Southway Bridge. At the bridge, the lines will connect with an Asotin County network built by the Port of Clarkston."
Questions From The Past
Memorial Bridge is only the first of two bridge crossings necessary for the completion of the Lewiston-Whitman-Asotin fiber network. The Southway Bridge crosses the Snake River to Asotin County. Conduit access rights stalled construction progress across the river. We wrote about the negotiations in a story from earlier this summer.
Readers may recall that there was a question with Centurylink's right to have conduit on the bridge and whether or not they owned the conduit or where the provider's potential ownership rights ended. To iron out the details, the Port of Lewiston filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the bridge builders.
The Lewiston Tribune (also reprinted in 4-Traders) reported that the Port of Clarkston has reached an agreement for conduit access on the Idaho side of the Southway Bridge,
"CenturyLink granted the Port of Clarkston use of one its 20 conduits on the Washington side of the bridge, enough room to meet the community's needs for as many as 60 years, Port Manager Wanda Keefer said… Ideally, the lines will be live by Sept. 1 to accommodate a customer… Before that can happen, CenturyLink needs to iron out issues with Asotin and Nez Perce counties and the cities of Lewiston and Clarkston, which own the bridge."
The bridge was built in the 1980s and no one has been able to locate documentation that describes the length of Centurylink's easement on the bridge. Centurylink pays $0 for the use of the bridge, which is another issue that may be re-examined as the parties move forward. According to a local official, the Port of Lewiston has not yet come to an agreement with the involved parties, but negotiations are making progress.
Connecting And Competing
Thus far, the Port of Lewiston has spent roughly $600,000 on the network infrastructure project designed to promote competition among Internet service providers and spur economic development. "We think it's going to provide connectivity to our community so we can compete with almost anywhere in the world," [Port Manager Wanda] Keefer said.

Local governments do not favor themselves on taxes or right of ways or otherwise compete unfairly with incumbent telecommunications and incumbent cable companies. To the contrary, private incumbents enjoy a wealth of state and federal subsidies, guaranteed rates of return, regulated rates for pole attachments, etc. In addition, local telephone companies enjoyed years of regulated monopoly status to build positions of dominance they continue to enjoy. To pretend that these local incumbents, with their subsidies and regulated access, need to "level the playing field" to protect a "free market" against local government systems flies in the face of reality.


My husband owns a design/build firm where he is the chief architect. Routinely, he meets with clients who need to update their kitchens, expand their master bedrooms, add on a family room, whathaveya. His observation over the years is that people often perceive they need a larger house when what they actually need is a dumpster. Most of us accumulate more aggressively than we purge. I saw this in action when I visited my daughter this weekend at college. Her dorm room was actually quite tidy, but over the course of the year the volume of detritus was reaching a tipping point. In three weeks I'll be moving her out and will be in charge of Hefty bags.
Jonas Wood paints some nifty household interiors. His comfort with clutter and pattern puts me in mind of the weekend.
Love the paintings. You are sooooo right about clutter!
Love these colorful interiors & yes, I agree re the dumpster which is why I am starting an ambitious spring cleaning of my home this week!

Q: Showing  a matrix is negative definite [formerly Showing a sum is always positive] For each $d$, I have a matrix $M$ with values
$$
   M_{ij} = \begin{cases}
          \frac{4ij}{d} - \binom{2d}{d} & i \neq j & \\\\
          \frac{4i^2}{d} - \binom{2d}{d} -
            \frac{\binom{2d}{d}}{\binom{d}{i}^{2}}  & i = j
        \end{cases}
$$
I want to show that, for every $d=2,3,\ldots$, the matrix is negative-definite.
An elegant answer has been provided by fedja, without needing to look at the determinants
My approach is to compute the determinant of the upper left-square matrix of size $k$, for each $k=1,2,\ldots,d$. The value for this is
$$
D_k = (-1)^k\left[\frac{\binom{2d}{d}^k}{\prod_{i=1}^{k}\binom{d}{i}^2}\right]
\left[\sum_{j=1}^{k}\left(\binom{d}{j}^2 - \frac{4j^2\binom{d}{j}^2}{d\binom{2d}{d}}\right)
 - \frac{4}{d\binom{2d}{d}}
 \sum_{1 \leq i < j \leq k}(j-i)^2\binom{d}{i}^2\binom{d}{j}^2\right]
$$
Hence, $D_k$ has sign $(-1)^k$ if this expression is positive
$$
\sum_{j=1}^{k}\left(\binom{d}{j}^2 - \frac{4j^2\binom{d}{j}^2}{d\binom{2d}{d}}\right)
 - \frac{4}{d\binom{2d}{d}}
 \sum_{1 \leq i < j \leq k}(j-i)^2\binom{d}{i}^2\binom{d}{j}^2
$$
I can re-write this as
$$
\sum_{j=0}^{k}\binom{d}{j}^2 - \frac{2}{d\binom{2d}{d}}
     \sum_{0 \leq i,j \leq k}(j-i)^2\binom{d}{i}^2\binom{d}{j}^2\,,
$$
and, then, after observing that $\sum_{i=0}^{d}i\binom{d}{i}^2 = \frac{d}{2}\binom{2d}{d}$,
I can deduce that this will certainly be positive when the following sum is positive
$$\sum_{0 \leq i, j \leq k}(i-(j-i)^2){\binom{d}{i}}^2{\binom{d}{j}}^2$$
Any advice/techniques would be appreciated.

A: Here is a sketch of a solution; the details would be tedious, but doable by someone with enough patience I think.
The point is that the terms with $i$ and $j$ both of the form $d/2 + O(\sqrt{d})$ are so much larger than the others that they are the only ones that matter, unless of course $k$ is significantly less than $d/2$ in which case those terms are not present in the sum and then the terms that matter are the ones where $i$ and $j$ are very close to $k$.  The rest of the terms are "error terms".
More precisely, for fixed $B$ and fixed $C>|B|$, and for $k \ge d/2 - B \sqrt{d}$, the sum of the terms with $|i-d/2| \le C \sqrt{d}$ and $|j-d/2| \le C \sqrt{d}$ can be approximated by using Stirling's formula to estimate the binomial coefficients (this amounts to replacing the double sum by a double integral involving the product of two copies of the square of the normal distribution).  The result of this is that the double sum can be bounded below by a positive constant times $2^{4d}$, where the constant depends only on $B$.
On the other hand, still for $k$ in this range, bounding the absolute values of the rest of the terms in the sum (i.e., with $(i,j)$ outside that "central square") shows that they contribute a total whose absolute value is at most $\epsilon 2^{4d}$ where $\epsilon$ can be made arbitrarily small by taking $C$ large enough.  So this proves that your sum $f(d,k)$ is positive for $k \ge d/2 - B \sqrt{d}$.
For smaller values of $k$, the same Stirling's approximation estimates apply.  This time the largest terms are not as large as they were in the central square, but the strategy is the same: to show that the sum of the terms with $(i,j)$ outside a small neighborhood of $(k,k)$ are negligible compared to the sum of the terms inside the neighborhood, which can be estimated analytically. $\square$

There may be some shortcuts that would save you some of the work involved above.  For instance, Mathematica gave me a formula that I think is equivalent to
$$f(d,d) = \frac{d(d-1)}{2(2d-1)} \binom{2d}{d}^2,$$
which is certainly positive, so if one could show that for fixed $d$, the sequence of values $f(d,k)$ for $k=0,1,\ldots,d$ is increasing up to a point and decreasing thereafter, that would suffice.  Perhaps using the Stirling approximation you can show that $f(d,k)-f(d,k-1)>0$ for $k<d/2$, in which case you could avoid the last paragraph of the argument above dealing with small $k$.

A: It's easier to prove the result about the matrix without resorting to determinants. What we need is the inequality
$$
\left(\sum_{i=0}^d 2ix_i\right)^2\le d{2d\choose d}\left(\sum_{i=0}^d x_i\right)^2
+d\sum_{i=0}^d \frac{{2d\choose d}}{{d\choose i}^2}x_i^2
$$
Now recall that $\sum_{i=0}^d (2i-d)^2{d\choose i}^2=\frac{d^2}{2d-1}{2d\choose d}$ (elementary computation with generating functions; should have some combinatorial proof as well) and that $(A+B)^2\le \frac{2d-1}dA^2+\frac{2d-1}{d-1}B^2$. Putting
$$
A=\sum_{i=0}^d(2i-d)x_i\,,\qquad B=d\sum_{i=0}^d x_i
$$
we see that we can use Cauchy-Schwarz to get
$$
A^2\le \frac{d^2}{2d-1}\sum_{i=0}^d \frac{{2d\choose d}}{{d\choose i}^2}x_i^2
$$
so we just need to check that $d^2\frac{2d-1}{d-1}\le d{2d\choose d}$ for $d\ge 2$, which is rather trivial.

A: (That's a comment, but too large for it)
I find it quite surprising how large the recurrence (in k) for the sum is.
(the last expression is slightly edited)
I guess I should have taken out factors and denominators first...

Simple truths guide our lives.
It's simply true that I have class at 9 am most days. It's simply true that if I drink coffee too late, I won't go to sleep. It's simply true that I have got to go to the grocery today or I am going to starve my husband.
Last week, we dug into the most simple of truths–the one that guides existence. The Gospel.
In studying Colossians, we are over and over reminded of some of these. Perhaps my favorite one, though, will be the simple truth of the brilliance of Jesus. Turn with me to Colossians 1. Drink in one of the most vivid pictures of Him we get in His word. Join me in learning what His brilliance is, how it guides our lives, and why it matters in the most crucial of ways.
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities–all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him, all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of the cross.
In Jewish culture, firstborn meant far, far more than "the oldest." It communicated preeminence. It held position. This child received his family inheritance, he acquired all responsibility, he was number one in rank. Therefore, Jesus is the highest in rank of all creation.
But how is Jesus one with creation if He Himself was not created?
You see, this passage does not communicate that Jesus was literally "born first," it reminds us that He is the authority. His word goes. His way is higher and better and greater and He bore the responsibility of the sins of creation.
He cannot be created because He did the creating. This is the beauty of the trinity–the God-in-three-persons miracle that is our one saving grace. God the Father was creating the universe for God the Son and God the Spirit, and God the Son and God the Spirit were creating for God the Father. It is this gorgeous cycle of three separate entities all working and living as one that defines the very being of God.
Let it blow your mind.
It doesn't make sense to humans because we are not God.
…so that He could hold us together completely.
Yesterday I fell apart. I sat on my bedroom floor and had my first anxiety attack in years. It came suddenly. It came swiftly. It came with the fullest of forces, knocking me off my feet and into a heap on my carpet. In the prior weeks, I had felt good–like I had it all together. Like I was further ahead in spiritual discipline than I ever had been and closer to Jesus than I have ever known to be.
I am going to break. I am going to crumble. I am going to fall apart when I feel so eloquently put together. My chest is going to cave in and I will stop breathing for a few moments.
But even so, my God, my God does not forsake me!
Jesus cried out on the cross so that I would not have to cry out on my bedroom floor. I don't have to cry out because He is already with me.
If He is holding all things together, if He is allowing the earth to spin at just the right speed, the sun to stay at just the right distance, and galaxies to shine in worship of Him, why do I doubt that he might not hold me together? This is a God who didn't come live and die so that the universe might last. He lived and died that we might eternally live in brilliance with Him.
And He will lead us as we do so.
Church, let us stop trying to lead on our own. Let us stop becoming obsessed with the correct ministry strategy and speaking points. Let us let Him. Let Him determine the sermon and bring who He may. Let Him guide us to our ministries. Let Him be in everything we do. Everything. The food we eat, the games we play, the attention-getting devices we use to draw the masses.
Oh, my brothers and sisters, the masses are not ours to draw. They are His.
We simply allow Him to be our head as we follow. My hand doesn't choose to lightly tap the keys on my computer. My feet are not choosing to get up and walk to the coffee pot. My back does not straighten itself. My whole body is nothing but limp if my head does not tell it what its next move is.
As bodies of believers, we have got to be willing to allow the Father and Son and Spirit to lead. Period. As individual believers, we have got to stop trying to convince people that Jesus is better. He is. But our spreading of His name can only be effective if it is done by His moving through our limp bodies.
Through that, we can be reconciled to Him.
Reconciliation. In the Greek, this word means to change.
Yes, our spirit changes. Yes, our lives change. But what is so much more beautiful is that our relationship with God changes.
We were lost and are lost without the sacrifice of Jesus. We are void of inheritance, confused by glory, anxious, self-seeking sinners who cannot have a right relationship with God because He cannot be associated with anything less than perfect.
Jesus in all His brilliance is just what reconciles our relationship with the Father.
And though His body hung limp on that dull, rugged cross, though darkness prevailed for a few days as His being lay lifeless in a tomb, His glory flew out of the empty shell of this earth and is the most blinding brilliance this world will ever see.
It is the brilliance of the Firstborn of all creation. It is the brilliance of the one who all things were created by, through, and for. It is the brilliance that casts out anxiety, the brilliance that leads our ministries, and the brilliance that blots out our sin that we might live eternally with Jesus.
Let's let go of our beloved control and give in to the brilliant Savior.
I had an anxiety attack yesterday. I continually try to control my ministry. I sin against Him more than I am even aware of. And He still holds me. He will hold you. Brilliantly.
This blog post not only informed me but directly ministered to me like a worship song or altar call would. I had one hand lifted as the other lay on my heart. I marvel with you at all the works of our Savior. There's a reason Nehemiah said the joy of the Lord is our strength because anything that comes from our own selves is fleeting. That's why we'll be okay one minute and broken down the next, it's because we're all broken and in need of a Savior every single day… Thank you once again for allowing the Lord to use you to preach to us Beloved, I feel loved by a God that I'm not worthy or deserving of and that's the most humbling realisation I will ever have.
Your encouragement is always so sweet to read. I just love it. Thank you for sharing your Jesus moments with me and all who read your own words.
Such kind words. Your consistent posting encourages me to that it's never too much when it's praising Jesus because nothing we will forever be indebted to Him for His saving grace.
Take a minute and be humbled. Marvel at our God. He is ABLE.


Here at SmileTown Dentistry in North Delta, we often get questions from curious parents about early dental care for their kids. What are the long-term benefits?
Given the temporary nature of primary (baby) teeth, parents often wonder if it's something they really need to worry much about. Aren't primary teeth just going to fall out, anyway?
Another thing is, some kids don't have a particularly favourable reaction to going to the dentist. Some feel anxious or scared. Others get annoyed, bored, or just plain uncomfortable. Why put them through it?
As a matter of fact, early dental treatment can have a huge impact on the long-term oral health of your children. If you're wondering why that is, read on!
Primary teeth typically last between the ages of 6 and 13. They play a very important part in your child's oral health, both while they're there, and long after they've been replaced by permanent teeth, too.
Healthy, strong primary teeth make it possible for children to chew their food properly, and to properly digest all the foods they need to stay healthy as they grow.
Primary teeth also create space in the mouth for the permanent (adult) teeth. In a sense, they function as a guide for the adult teeth as they emerge.
If, due to decay, a child loses his or her primary teeth early, the permanent teeth may not have the space necessary to grow in as they should.
Crowded or misaligned teeth, or a variety of different bite issues, are often the result. These issues make eating and speaking more difficult, and they can also make teeth harder to clean sufficiently, which can result in further decay.
Begin taking care of primary teeth as soon as they erupt to help prevent cavities, and the need for expensive and uncomfortable orthodontic appliances when your child is older.
Apart from the more obvious health benefits, early dental can helps ensure that your kids will continue to visit the dentist on a regular basis as they grow up.
Regular dental appointments starting at an early age give children ample opportunity to get used to the process. This will help them feel less anxiety about their oral care, and will keep their teeth healthier, too.
As your children mature into teens, and then adults, they'll learn view visiting the dentist as a positive experience. After all, adults who have had consistent, positive dental care as children are far more likely to continue that habit throughout life.
Early dental care is beneficial to you children in many ways. By bringing your child to a North Delta children's dentist as soon as his or her primary teeth emerge, you'll be setting them on the path to life-long oral health!
