\section{Introduction} \label{sec:introduction}

Solar radio transients in general and particularly in the metric wavelengths, have been studied since the dawn of solar radio observations. However, to the best of my knowledge, these studies were mainly limited to radio bursts and highly energetic phenomenon like coronal mass ejections. These phenomenon are generally associated with active regions. For a review about the various types of solar radio bursts and their observational characteristics I refer the reader to \citet{wild1963}. These radio bursts are generally related to magnetic reconnection activities in the solar corona and hence at least some of them, especially the impulsive type I radio bursts, might have some connection to the hypothesised ``nanoflares", proposed to explain the coronal heating problem \citep[e.g.][etc.]{mercier1997, ramesh2013}. However, if the nanoflare hypothesis is true, then such transient emissions should also been present in the quiet sun. \citet{mondal2020}, henceforth referred to a M20, reported the first detection of such radio transients in the quiet sun. The reported radio transients were highly impulsive, narrowband and had flux densities generally in the range of a few tens of mSFU, several orders of magnitude weaker than the well studied solar radio bursts. Henceforth we shall refer to these emissions as Weak Impulsive Narrowband Quiet Sun Emission(s) or WINQSEs in short. Transient emissions from the quiet sun have also been reported in the EUV and X-ray band \citep[e.g.][etc.]{harrison1997, berghmans1998, krucker1998, benz2002, kuhar2018, chitta2021} and it will be very interesting to understand their relationship with WINQSEs.

Finding the counterpart of WINQSEs in the EUV and X-ray is also important from the perspective of coronal heating as well. M20 hypothesised that WINQSEs are coherent radio emission and are weak cousins of the well known Type III radio bursts. Like the type III radio bursts, the reconnection processes responsible for the WINQSEs deposit the largest fraction of energy into the corona and a minuscule fraction of energy is observed as coherent radio emission. Parameters required to estimate the deposited energy from the observed coherent radio emission suffers from large uncertainties \citep{subramanian2004}. Hence, it is very challenging to estimate the deposited energy from the radio emission alone. However, if we can identify the counterparts of WINQSEs in the EUV or X-ray data, we can use standard techniques to estimate the deposited energy, which is the key quantity of interest from a coronal heating perspective.

In this paper I do a pilot study to identify the EUV counterpart of a group of WINQSEs and then use it to estimate the energy associated with the WINQSE group. This WINQSE group is a very tiny fraction of all the WINQSEs discovered in M20 and its counterpart was discovered in a serendipitous manner.

\section{Observations and data analysis}

The radio data used in this work has already been presented in M20. I refer the reader to M20 for details about the radio observations and data analysis procedure. Here, I will only give a brief summary of the details provided there.

These observations were taken on November 27, 2017. The sun was exceptionally quiet on this day \footnote{\url{https://www.solarmonitor.org/?date=20171127}}. In Fig. \ref{fig:AIA_images}, I have shown the magnetogram and solar image at 94 \AA$\,$. As is evident from Fig. \ref{fig:AIA_images}, Only one active region (NOAAA 12689) was present on the visible part of the solar disc on this day. M20 analysed 70 minutes of data at 4 frequencies near 96, 120, 132 and 160 MHz using the Automated Imaging Routine for Compact Array for Radio Sun \citep[AIRCARS,][]{mondal2019}. The images were made at every 0.5s and had a temporal resolution of 0.5s, spectral resolution of 160 kHz. In this paper, I use data corresponding to 132 MHz. The spatial resolution of the images at this frequency is $\sim 2.5^{'}$. In the full 70 minutes of data M20 detected $\sim 25000$ WINQSEs in this frequency. However, here I have focussed my attention on identifying the EUV counterpart of a group on WINQSEs visible near 01:58:14 UT and originating at the same location in the radio image. Henceforth for simplicity I will use WINQSEs and a group of WINQSEs interchangebly.

\label{fig:euv_radio_full_sun}
\end{figure}

In Fig. \ref{fig:euv_radio_full_sun}, I have overlaid the radio contours at 01:58:14.5 UT in blue on top of a AIA image observed with the 171\AA $\,$ filter. All images are made using a data span of 0.5s. The radio compact sources enclosed by the white boxes is the location of the WINQSEs which will be studied here. The large radio source seen near the centre of the solar disc is a Type I noise storm associated with the active region NOAAA 12689. In Fig. \ref{fig:winqse1_timeseries}, I have shown how the flux at the location of the WINQSEs changed as a function of time. The dashed box shows the location of the WINQSEs. The contour levels are same in all the images shown. Multiple brightenings are visible inside the blue box, suggesting the occurrence of several WINQSEs in this time span.

 We believe that WINQSEs are the radio counterparts of proposed nanoflares. Since nanoflares are expected to happen at very small spatial scales, we also expect WINQSEs to have a compact spatial morphology. Additionally, the quiet sun will always have a thermal contribution, and the nonthermal emission from the WINQSEs will always be observed on top of this thermal background. It is expected that the smooth quiet sun thermal background will have a large scale spatial morphology. Hence, as a conservative criterion, I assume that only compact structures are related to WINQSEs. Quantitatively, I classify a structure as compact if the following conditions are satisfied
 \begin{enumerate}
 \item The total area enclosed by all the closed contours surrounding a local peak is much smaller than the area of the solar disc.
 \item There is no second local peak within the closed contours.
 \end{enumerate}

\begin{figure*}

The contour levels are same in all the images shown. The times corresponding to each panel is give at the top of the corresponding panel.Each image is made using 0.5s data.}
\label{fig:winqse1_timeseries}
\end{figure*}

It is evident from Fig. \ref{fig:winqse1_timeseries} that WINQSE like behaviour is not observed at times between 01:58:7.5--01:58:13.5. At 01:58:14 and 01:58:14.5 there is clear evidence of a WINQSE inside the blue dashed box. The structure reaches its peak flux density at 01:58:15.5 and then starts to decay. It starts to brighten again at 01:58:22, was brightest at 01:58:22.5 and can be regarded as undetected at 01:58:24.5. It is worth mentioning that M20 had demonstrated that WINQSEs are highly impulsive in nature and a single timeseries shows a large number of these structures in general. Our image plane analysis confirms this conclusion independently. The flux density timeseries at the location of the WINQSEs is shown in Fig. \ref{fig:winqse1_quiet_sun_timeseries}. The red points show the raw flux density, whereas the blue squares shows a 12s smoothed lightcurve.

Following M20, I have estimated the peak flux density of the WINQSEs to be $\sim 20$ Jy (1 Jy=$10^{-4}\,$SFU). I also find in this timerange there were 7 time instants when the calculated $\Delta F/F$ exceeded 0.1, which is the limiting value as found in M20. For these events $\Delta F/F$ ranged from 0.1--0.16. It should be noted that although the flux density of the WINQSE is as low as $20$ Jy, it has been detected at a significance level exceeding $4\sigma$, where $\sigma$ is the error in the flux density estimation and has been estimated from the image.

    \label{fig:showing_both_sources}
\end{figure}

In Fig. \ref{fig:showing_both_sources}, I have shown the radio contours overlaid on a AIA 171\AA$\,$ map after zooming into the location of the WINQSEs. The black ellipse shows the angular resolution of the radio data. The EUV bright sources inside the two white boxes show variability in times similar to the WINQSEs and has been identified by visual inspection of the EUV data. I will refer to the EUV source inside the radio contour and bounded by a dashed rectangle as SOURCE1, and the EUV source inside the solid rectangle as SOURCE2. I choose to treat SOURCE2 as a potential counterpart of the WINQSE as it is possible that due to scattering or due to complex magnetic field connectivity \citep{kontar2019,mohan2019a,mohan2019b}, the observed position of the radio source has a significant spatial separation from its EUV counterpart. In subsequent paragraphs I have shown various properties related to these two sources, which I will use to try to identify the EUV counterpart of the WINQSEs.

In Fig. \ref{fig:base_diff_euv_radio_overlay_source1} and \ref{fig:base_diff_euv_radio_overlay_source2}, I have shown base difference maps at 171, 131 and 211 \AA $\,$ after zooming into SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 respectively. The time of the base difference map is shown on top of each panel. The map closest to 01:55:30 UT has been subtracted to obtain the base difference map. { The intersection point of the two white dashed lines} shows the location of our interest in the EUV map. I show later that a box centred on this green star shows signature of energy enhancement at similar times as when we observe the radio enhancement.
In Fig. \ref{fig:EUV_radio_light_curve_source1} and \ref{fig:EUV_radio_light_curve_source2}, I have plotted the normalized EUV flux density at 171 \AA, 131 and 211 \AA $\,$ within a box centred on the {point of interest} shown in Fig. \ref{fig:base_diff_euv_radio_overlay_source1} and \ref{fig:base_diff_euv_radio_overlay_source2} respectively. The errorbars in the EUV lightcurves have been obtained following \citet{boerner2012} and adding a 10\% systematic uncertainty in quadrature. The 12s smoothed corrected radio light curve at location of the WINQSE is shown using black points.

\end{figure}

I have performed a differential emission measure (DEM) analysis on these two sources to understand how the energy content at these two locations vary as a function of time. For this purpose, I use the publicly available code available from \url{https://github.com/ianan/demreg} based on \citet{hannah2012} and \citet{hannah2013}. The code does a regularised inversion of the data and returns the differential emission maps corresponding to each pixel. I averaged the data over the region of interest and have shown the DEM curves at different times corresponding to SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 in Fig. \ref{fig:dem_time_variation}. From these figures it is evident that the DEM for both these sources peaks around 01:58:00 UT.

\begin{figure}
     \centering
     \includegraphics[scale=0.45]{DEM_time_variation_both_sources.eps}
     \caption{DEM distribution as a function of temperature for SOURCE1 (left panel) and SOURCE2 (right panel). }
     \label{fig:dem_time_variation}
 \end{figure}

Using DEM it is possible to estimate the energy deposited into the corona and is given by,

 \begin{eqnarray}
     E&=& 3<n_e>k_B<T>L^3 \\
     <n_e>&=& \sqrt{EM/L} \\
     EM&= & \int DEM(T) dT \\
     <T>&=& \frac{\int DEM(T)T dT}{EM}
 \end{eqnarray}

 Here L is the length of the emitting region. It is clear that while DEM is obtained by modelling the EUV light curve at various filters, the emitting length scale has to be obtained from the EUV images. I find that emitting length for SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 is 1.3 Mm and 2.3 Mm respectively. Using these numbers I have estimated the energy for both the sources and have plotted them in Fig. \ref{fig:energy_variation_both_sources}. The grey region shows the variation of the energy due to the random and systematic uncertainties in the AIA data. The two bounding curves of this error region has been computed by using the $DEM+\Delta DEM$ and $DEM-\Delta DEM$ for all filters, where $\Delta DEM$ is the error on DEM returned by the code.

 \section{Discussion}

 \subsection{Finding the counterpart of the WINQSE}

 It is evident from Figs \ref{fig:EUV_radio_light_curve_source1}, \ref{fig:EUV_radio_light_curve_source2} and \ref{fig:energy_variation_both_sources} that both SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 show temporal variation very similar to the smoothed radio lightcurve of the WINQSE group. This implies that both of these sources are possible counterparts of the WINQSE group. Additionally there is another possibility that the two sources are connected by a coronal loop and then it is might be possible to associate both the sources to the WINQSE group. I have discussed each of these scenarios and provided their pros and cons in the following subsections.

 \subsubsection{Scenario 1: SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 are connected}

 If both of the EUV sources are connected by some coronal loop, then it can very easily explain why they show variability at similar timescales. Since coronal loops are quite long lived, it is expected that this correlation will also hold for some significant amount of time. To investigate if this prediction is true or not, in Fig. \ref{fig:long_term_evolution} I show the EUV light curve of both these sources. From the figure it is evident that while the peak near 01:58:00 UT is present at both the sources, SOURCE2 shows an additional peak near 01:56, which is absent in SOURCE1. This observation suggests that there is a high probability that SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 are not connected with each other and it is mere chance that the two peaks line up.

 \begin{figure}
     \centering
     \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{both_sources_AIA_light_curve.eps}
     \caption{Light curve of SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 at 171\AA $\,$.}
     \label{fig:long_term_evolution}
 \end{figure}

 \subsubsection{Scenario 2: Either SOURCE1/SOURCE2 is the counterpart of WINQSE1}

 It is evident from Fig. \ref{fig:showing_both_sources}, while SOURCE1 is co-located with WINQSE1 in the sky plane, SOURCE2 is separated by $\sim$3--4 arcminutes. However, shifts of similar magnitudes have already been observed in previous studies of Type III radio bursts and since scattering only depends on the intervening medium, this can also affect WINQSEs. Additionally, it is expected that the radio emission due to the WINQSE group is originating from a much larger height ($\sim 1.2R_\odot$), compared to the EUV sources. Hence depending on the exact orientation of the magnetic field loop connecting the WINQSE location and its counterpart, the angular separation between the WINQSE and its counterpart can also vary. Due to these reasons, I believe that spatial co-location is not a strong discriminator in determining the counterparts, if their separation from WINQSE is a few arcminutes. Hence, I will try to use the temporal and energy properties of both sources to determine which one of these is the counterpart. However, here also there is a roadblock. Both SOURCE1 and SOURCE2 show variation in energy at similar timescales to the variability in the smoothed WINQSE light curve. Hence based on the temporal variability it seems that these two sources are equally likely to be counterpart of WINQSE. However, it must be noted that even at the location of the WINQSE group, multiple WINQSEs happened during the full 70 minutes of data. To break the degeneracy between the two EUV sources which show variation at same timescales as the group of WINQSEs between 01:56:30- 02:00:00 UT, I have used data slightly before 01:56:30 UT. It is clear from Fig. \ref{fig:long_term_evolution} that whereas SOURCE2 shows a small brightening around 01:56 UT, SOURCE1 does not show any such signature. It is not expected that the coronal loop connectivity or scattering properties will change significantly in this small time separation of about 2--3 minutes. Hence if SOURCE2 is the counterpart then I expect to see a similar enhancement in the WINQSE smoothed radio lightcurve as well around 01:56 UT. On the contrary if this expectation is not met, then it will be more likely that the SOURCE1 is the counterpart of the WINQSE. In Fig. \ref{fig:aia_radio_long_term_lightcurve} I have shown the radio light curve covering a much larger timerange than shown earlier. Multiple images between 01:55--01:57 UT had dynamic range limitations and hence are not shown in the light curve. In spite of this, there is strong indication that the smoothed radio light curve shows enhancement near 01:56 UT. Based on this evidence I conclude that SOURCE2 is the EUV counterpart of the WINQSE group.

 \begin{figure}

     \includegraphics[scale=0.4]{both_sources_AIA_radio_light_curve.eps}
     \caption{Light curve of SOURCE1 (cyan curve), SOURCE2 (blue curve) and the WINQSE group (red curve). }
     \label{fig:aia_radio_long_term_lightcurve}
 \end{figure}

 \subsection{Physical model of WINQSEs}

 M20 hypothesised that WINQSEs are the weaker cousins of the emissions observed by \citet{mohan2019b}. Here I present strong evidence, albeit in a two groups of WINQSEs, that the smoothed radio light curve shows variation at very similar timescales as its EUV counterpart. The energy variation in the system also follows a similar trend. This is exactly what was observed by \citet{mohan2019b}. Based on this additional evidence, I present a physical model below.

 \begin{figure}
      \centering
      \includegraphics[trim={0 5cm 0 0},clip,scale=0.5]{winqse_flux_tube_drawing.eps}
      \caption{Cartoon drawing showing the location of the radio source and the bright loop observed in the EUV.}
      \label{fig:flux_tube_geometry}
  \end{figure}

As shown in Fig. \ref{fig:flux_tube_geometry}, I hypothesise that the EUV bright loop and the loop containing the radio source has at least a common footpoint. It should be noted that I have added oppositely directed open field linear near this footpoint, to suggest that this footpoint has a complex polarity, with presence of both +ve and -ve regions. Due to this reconnections will happen at the footpoint and this will heat the EUV loop and thus it will become bright in the EUV. These reconnections will also induce magnetic waves which will then travel along the magnetic tube and induce reconnections at different heights. These reconnections generates additional nonthermal electron beams which will then emit in the radio band. Since the original reconnections at the magnetic footpoint are weak, then the reconnections they induce higher up in the atmosphere close to the radio source are also weak. Hence the electron beams generated are weak and gets easily damped due to collisions, explaining the narrow bandwidths of the WINQSEs. This model also shows why the radio source and the EUV source can have intrinsic separation in the sky plane. This model is similar to the one proposed my M19 and I refer the reader to M19 and \citet{mohan2021} for more details. It is noted that the presence of this mixed polarity region is not the only way to induce reconnections in the EUV loop. For example, reconnections can also happen due to strong twist in the field lines in the EUV loop. Hence as long as reconnections happen near the footpoint of the EUV loop, this model will work. A key prediction of this model is that the radio and X-ray data will show some lag, which is equal to the time required for the magnetic wave to travel to the height of the radio source from the magnetic footpoint. This prediction will be tested in future using simultaneous X-ray, EUV and radio data.

\subsection{Possible relationship with campfires}

Recently the Solar Orbiter has observed transient brightenings in the quiet sun \citep{berghmans2021} and have termed them as ``campfires". \citet{berghmans2021} found that these brightenings are also visible in AIA bands like 193, 171, 211 and 304 \AA $\,$ and are generally not observed in the other bands. However there are also suggestions that at least some campfires also show signatures in other bands as well \citep{rutten2020}. Campfires have a linear extension of 0.2--4 Mm. The EUV counterpart studied here has a linear extension 2 Mm and lasts for $\sim$2--3 minutes, again in the range of campfires. The peak flux observed in 171 \AA $\,$ is $\sim 900$DN/s. Converting this to the peak photon count using a conversion factor of 1.168 \citep{boerner2012}, I obtain that at the peak, 1051 photons were detected each second. This lies near the peak of the probability of total intensity distribution of campfires \citep{berghmans2021}. Based on these evidences I conclude that it is highly likely that the observed EUV counterpart is also a "campfire" and hence in corollary, WINQSEs might also be associated with "campfires". Recent simulations also hint towards a relationship between the two phenomena. \citet{chen2021} found three magnetic field orientations which can produce campfires and one of them match almost exactly with the emission geometry found in \citet{mohan2019b} and \citet{mohan2021}. Future studies with simultaneous observations with the Solar Orbiter and sensitive radio interferometers will be able to investigate possible relationships between these two phenomena in detail.

\section{Conclusion}

In this article, I have identified the EUV counterpart of a group of WINQSEs and estimated that during the process, $\sim 10^{25}$ ergs were deposited into the corona. While the relationship between EUV flares and radio bursts are well studied, this is the first study to understand the EUV counterparts of the WINQSEs. To the best of my knowledge, this is the weakest EUV transient event known to have a radio counterpart as well. However, the energy estimated for this event is about 1--2 orders of magnitude higher than the nanoflares studied in \citet{chitta2021} and is not exactly in the nanoflare regime. While the events studied here is on the less energetic side of the events reported in M20, further work have revealed the presence of much weaker features in the data than found in M20 and will be presented in an upcoming publication (Biswas et al., in preparation). Hence, this work in no way rules out the hypothesis put forth by M20 that WINQSEs are the radio counterparts of nanoflares. On the contrary this work goes on to show that it is possible to associate EUV counterparts to WINQSEs and thus encourages further work towards this direction.

Q: Do i need HTTPS for Administration Panel? Best way to secure it in node.js? I am developing a small website with a custom admin page that allow to simply modify and insert contents.
This is how it works: in domain.com/admin there is a page with an autentication form. Of course the only user that know the password is the admin (not me, my client). If the password is right, server send an html page that allow to modify the content of the website. How? Dynamic information are stored in a mongodb database setted up on localhost of server. So, using simple CRUD operation like insert, update and remove, the content of the website will change. In the clientside i simply do same "post" requests to the server, wich makes CRUD operations.
I need to make this system safe. Do i need https for autentication? Do you think that a simple autentication password for admin would be enougth? And what about the way i check if the passwords matches? I was thinking to store the admin password in the database (that have a password too) but maybe is unuseful. i could simply compare two strings cause the password is only one, there are no other registered users different by admin. But i'm not sure, this seems unsafe :D Any idea for the best way to do it??
I'm using node js (NO express). I have a dedicated root VPS.

A: https will be better, and you can just keep the salt and hash code in database instead of keeping the password directly. likely most of website have a feature to reset password not find the password, they don't keep password directly in file. when someone know the salt and hash code , they can't reverse the password.

Michigan 73, Illinois 55: Owning the Opener Again
Michigan used first-half spurts of 12-0 and 21-2 to run Illinois out of the United Center and win its opening game of the Big Ten Tournament for the ninth straight season.
By Drew Hallett@DrewCHallett Mar 12, 2015, 1:54pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: Michigan 73, Illinois 55: Owning the Opener Again
Jerry Lai-USA TODAY Sports
Some things never change. It doesn't matter that two of Michigan's best players, Caris LeVert and Derrick Walton, were sidelined with serious foot injuries. It doesn't matter that Michigan closed the regular season by losing seven of its final nine games. It doesn't matter that Michigan was a four-point underdog. Michigan just doesn't lose its opening game of the Big Ten Tournament under John Beilein.
For the ninth straight season and eighth straight time under Beilein, Michigan won its first game of the Big Ten Tournament, running No. 8 seed Illinois out of the United Center by a score of 73-55. The last time Michigan had a one-and-done showing in the conference tournament was in 2006, when the Wolverines were edged by Minnesota, 59-55, in the opening round. And Michigan made it clear in the first half that that streak of opening-round wins in the Big Ten Tournament would not end this early afternoon.
It's a cliche to say that basketball is a game of runs, but that is what happened in the first 20 minutes. There were three significant runs that spanned most of the first half, and, thankfully, Michigan was the beneficiary of two of them. Michigan started hot, using a 12-0 run in the opening minutes to take a quick 14-2 lead. However, Illinois responded immediately, going on a 13-0 run of their own to capture a one-point lead. Given that the last three meetings between these two teams had been decided either by one point or in overtime, it seemed like we were destined for another thriller. However, Michigan had other plans because, from the 8:14 mark to the 0:46 mark of the first half, Michigan cobbled together a 21-2 run to take a 38-21 lead and suck the life out of the Fighting Illini.
Michigan's only concern in the second half was to make sure that they did not take their foot off the gas pedal -- something that has happened in recent weeks in road losses to Michigan State and Illinois and almost happened in home wins against Ohio State and Rutgers. However, for the first time since its win against Nebraska, Michigan remained aggressive and relentless the entire second half, pushing the ball in the open court and attacking the rim in the half court for layups against Illinois' porous two-point defense. Michigan continued to add points to the scoreboard, never experiencing that patented lengthy field-goal drought, so Illinois never could cut the lead to fewer than 16 points.
And it was over when Spike Albrecht turned into Steve Nash on this razzle-dazzle pass:
This was an all-around effort from Michigan. There wasn't just one guy that exploded. Aubrey Dawkins scored a team-high 18 points on 8-of-12 shots and slammed home this lob from Zak Irvin. Dawkins now has averaged 23.3 points in his last three games thanks to his hot shooting. Zak Irvin continues to look like the game has slowed down for him, and he's flourishing as a result. He finished with 14 points and six boards, but what was most impressive was his six assists. He's become an excellent passer in the pick and roll, which would have seemed ludicrous weeks ago, and he kept Michigan's offense humming in the first half by tallying five assists. This is the Irvin Michigan fans have been waiting to see. Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman broke out of his slump and recorded 15 points and eight rebounds, falling two boards shy of his first career double-double. He punished Illinois inside by finishing through contact at the rim, but he also knocked down his lone three-point attempt and an elbow jumper coming off of a screen. The three of them totaled 47 points, almost outscoring Illinois' 55 points by themselves.
Defensively, Michigan threw in a mixture of man and zone, and Illinois didn't seem to have an answer for either one. The Illini were ice cold from the field as their three main scoring threats -- Rayvonte Rice, Malcolm Hill, and Kendrick Nunn -- scored 31 points, shooting only 11-of-37 from the field and 1-of-12 from downtown. Add in that Illinois uncharacteristically was careless with the ball, and it was a rough outing for them.
This win not only extended Michigan's streaking of opening-round victories in the Big Ten Tournament to nine straight seasons, but it also brings Michigan one step closer to participating in a postseason tournament. Though this likely wasn't not enough to reenter the NIT field, an upset over Wisconsin in the quarterfinals would do the trick.
Let's just hope Michigan views tomorrow's matchup as an opening round game, too.

Stitched The Film
Stitched Film, A Documentary Regarding Quilting
December 4, 2022 By Stitchedfilm
Stitched film is a documentary that gives audiences a peek at competitive quilters. It concludes and begins with the Houston Quilt Show, the country's largest event, with over 50,000 quilters in attendance. Who'll win "Best of Show"? She's using her quilts to emphasize some of the social and environmental ills of the world.
Randall Cook's quilt showing man nudes was presented in an article about quilts that were shocking. A 3-minute version of the documentary won second place in June at the Aurora Picture Show's Incredibly Shorts Festival. All three race to challenge their quilts, occasionally juggling professions that are active.
Stitched has won a grant in the Austin Film Society. It's scheduled to premiere at a quilt show in Cincinnati in April, and it is going to screen a dozen times in Paducah, Kentucky, where among the greatest stop show's in the state is held.
The Stitched team wants cash to cover the duplication of the more than 5,000 DVDs made for you; you will be charged a bit more than $1 for the creation of each DVD. We should market the film to documentary fans, art lovers, and quilters.
Read, MyCardStatement & Liteblue ePayroll.
In the picture, we see three well-known (and maybe unlucky) quilters getting ready for the International Quilt Festival, which will be held in Houston, Texas. That is the biggest quilt festival in the nation, mind you, with 50,000 quilters participating each year.
Hollis Chatelain, Randall Cook, and Caryl Bryer Fallert each have their own style and push the boundaries of traditional quilting, eschewing block designs and pastels in favor of brilliant forms. For example, Chatelain paints right on her quilts, and Randall Cook's quilted gems show moving man nudes that look like Adonis.
Because "Stitched" shows a brand new universe of quilting that would cause your beloved auntie to have a fit, don't let your vision get clouded by your view of old woman quilters.

Tam-My blog: My vulnerability/My seemed safety net.
Wow, you are a beautiful writer...and person!!!
That was a great post. I read every one of your blog entries, but I do it through reader and usually I'm too lazy to comment. Today is different.
Thanks for sharing your life experiences. They help me to see things in my own life differently and I appreciate that.
I'm happy that you are finding some answers and understanding your relationship better. I'm just happy for you. It's awesome!
This is a very beautiful post. Because it is honest and (I know.. but it's true) vulnerable. Vulnerability makes people shine in a special light when they thought they were made non-reflectant. Does that make any sense?
Either way, I would agree that many people take marriage as some kind of safety net without even questioning or without making it about the person more than the safety it (theoretically) comes with. I am not married, maybe not yet, and I was surrounded by divorce throughout all my childhood so maybe I am more hesitant about it to begin with. My boyfriend and I just had a daughter in November and we got asked whether we're going to get married many times (even though we're both not religious). And it somehow surprised us since raising a child together seems like an incredible commitment as it is. Maybe even more so, because a marriage can end in divorce - but you can't (and in most cases thankfully don't even want to) "divorce" your kids. We are no different from any married couple with kids, we just don't carry the label. And I think that that is what helps us appreciate one another more. We are both not against getting married in general, but we think that for us personally it is not necessary at this point. We like the idea of getting married after we already spent a great portion of our lifetime together. But who knows..

Gorilla Tracking in Uganda
March 22, 2014 By Cynthia Holmes
It seems impossible to me but after all the build-up in expectations the gorilla experience surpassed everything on the safari by far. I had supposed that although the gorillas would be close to us that they would not be fully visible. The reality was simply amazing. The 18 animals in the family we were tracking we're literally all around us. We kept about a 20 foot distance but at times the gorillas violated the rules. At one point a female came from behind me and passed less than a meter from me. I was so surprised that I have no pictures of her.
The hike to find this family was a cake walk. We walked for 2 hr and gained about 200 m (1500 to 1700 m). We would have been much quicker if we did not have to wait for a woman in another group who was a smoker (age about 65) and probably had very compromised lungs. The Bwindi Impenetrable Forest did not live up to its name and was quite open and easy to walk through even when we left the trail to get to the gorillas. The terrain was not particularly challenging.
The tracking process is painless for the paid guests as there is team in the forest with GPS devices to tell our guides exactly where to go. The scouts are in eye contact with the gorillas before we enter the forest.
When we arrived, the gorillas were all in trees (they were eating fruit we were told) and hard to see. No problem says the guide, they will come down shortly. Sure enough in about 5 minutes the Silverback came down from about a 2 ft diameter tree. He looked like King Kong. It was hard to imagine an animal that big (300 kg or so) up in a tree. After the Silverback came down all the rest came down. One little guy rode a sapling down as a kid would (and just like kid he got a nasty surprise when near the ground the sapling broke and he fell the last 8 ft or so – he showed no sign of injury as he got up and scampered off).
As we were standing around watching the gorillas come down the guide had us move a few feet as there was a female gorilla immediately above us and she would have touched me as she came down.
Once the gorillas were down they spread out a bit and the big guy sat on the ground with his back to us for a while. The Silverback began eating in a few minutes but did not really get into it. The females seemed much more intent on interacting with the 2 babies and the two smaller youths (the youths are about 4 years old I think). The youths were into various rough house games that looked like wrestling.
The gorillas were all around us and as they moved, the guide allowed us to move also to a distance of 7 meters. At the end of the allotted hour, the animals seemed to declare that the interaction was over and moved with much more purpose, disappearing into the undergrowth. This will rate as the high point of my trip and an experience of a lifetime.

Pursuing success and avoiding failure is an illusion I've discovered.
Training in Aikido, I attempt to replicate what I saw the teacher do filtered through my conditioned reactions. When it doesn't work, I try harder until I realize I'm deluding myself.
In the pursuit of making an outcome happen I'm missing the point that matters most, learning what works and what doesn't work.
When I focus on achieving success or avoiding failure, I stop learning in the moment.
Judging myself or others, I've pulled back from engaging with what is really happening.
I find my greatest joy comes from being fully alive in the moment, present with what is, and learning to create with what is offered.
Throughout human experience we seek those moments of creativity together, whether it is in story, song, or dance, filled with discoveries, sorrows and laughter.
Reflecting on my most joyous moments in organizations, they have been in the flow of creating new solutions to make a difference, putting aside success and failure as historical judgments made after the fact.
Not that they were easy. Filled with conflicting ideas and difficult choices, we persevered by focusing on what will work the best now.
Let's create a better future by learning what works, and creating with what we face today!
Leadership Agility is the ability to take wise and effective action amid complex, rapidly changing conditions.
I grew up moving often, living more than a dozen different places before leaving my family to go to college. In my mind, I was flexible and adaptable, confident I could respond effectively in different situations.
Over twenty-eight years at Hewlett Packard I continued moving from one role to another. I enjoyed new opportunities to learn and create better solutions. Over time, I began to bump into situations that didn't work out the way I wanted them to. I struggled to make sense of things and chose to work harder.
I fell into thinking that more detailed analysis and getting more tasks done would yield better outcomes. I didn't realize at the time I was relying on conditioned patterns (habits) I'd developed earlier in my life. I was reinforcing the same patterns, not developing new ones to agilely respond.
It took many years to realize my habitual reactions were no longer serving me the way I wanted them to. Starting a practice of Aikido helped me see my reactions in a new light. Regular practice now enables me to observe my reactions in real time, and with training develop more creative responses.
As I started training with a partner attacking, I realized I'd lean in with my head, and contract my muscles to ward them off while looking for a safe way out. The story in my mind about how good a training partner they were or weren't quickly revved up. I'd lose sight of where I was, freeze and then try to make something happen by pushing harder.
Now I'm able to catch myself and blend in response more quickly and easily. Knowing where I am in each moment has become critically important to me. Am I stuck in my own story and freezing in place? Or, am I relaxed and aware, entering in fully to create with what's possible now?
It is easy to get stuck in our conditioned reactions. Learning new creative ways to respond develops our Leadership Agility.
I partner with executives and professionals to confidently lead in the face of uncertainty and complexity. Together we build trust, and cultivate leadership agility and organizational effectiveness to create a better future today. To learn more visit here.
"Be Quick - But Don't Hurry!"
Be Quick – But Don't Hurry!
It was a cold, rainy fall afternoon and I was sitting in the San Francisco airport waiting for a plane home to Boise. Exhausted from a long business trip in Europe, and sleep deprived after two flights already that day I had little patience left. My scheduled flight was delayed due to the plane being stuck somewhere else.
I talked to the gate agent about shifting to a later flight, and was assured they were bringing in another plane, and I'd be better off staying on the same flight. As it turned out the plane was available about 60 minutes before the later flight. By coincidence the two flights were scheduled to leave from adjacent gates.
We boarded and as I settled into my seat I noticed the other plane headed to Boise arrive at the gate next to me. Our gate and flight crews were in a hurry to get us all on board and off to Boise. As we pushed back from the gate, and began to prepare for the engine start the pilot announced we were pulling back to the gate. We needed more fuel.
Frustrated by the additional delay I consoled myself, grateful that they caught the fuel shortage before we were in the air. As we pushed back the second time, I could see people boarding the later flight to Boise next to us. Again, before engine start the pilot apologized that we were pulling back to the gate. The bags had not been loaded.
Watching our bags being loaded from my window, I saw the later plane to Boise departing on time. Given the choice of emotions, I was beginning to find humor in the situation, yet unsure about what might happen next.
I find when I'm in a hurry, I'm far less effective, which feeds my frustration and can accelerate a downward spiral, like a spinning top losing its momentum. The best way to recover, is to stop and regain my mental, emotional and physical balance. Grounding myself and clarifying my intention and commitments for the current situation help me move forward effectively once again.
I'm grateful my pilots grounded themselves, regained their balance and moved forward effectively. The third time we pushed back, we had a smooth flight to Boise.
Like pilots, we all can benefit from having partners who help us ground, regain our balance, and affirm our intentions and commitments to what we want to achieve.

In my opinion a call middle job is sweet for a short while job till you discover one thing else. The unhappy truth is a call center might be a great place to work if they actually wished to maintain good workers. They would treat the staff better instead of throwing them away like a used tissue. They like having a excessive turnover with a never ending provide. It is all concerning the cash. The extra workers they've the more cash they make. I no longer work in a name middle. The culture is horrible, and if you suppose it is about offering good customer service it is not. It is a numbers game of how quick can you get the customer off the phone to maintain your stats within the through the straightforward calls take them get a excessive CEW rating and the difficult ones switch out to save lots of your metrics. I do actual office work now which is rather more rewarding. The environment is nice, higher pay, and the job satisfaction is 100%. I am not chained to a dog house and I get to make use of my full skill set.

I recently spent some time in Chester. I took a few photos while I was there.
Today there were several events for Chinese New Year, so I went out to take photos of the crowds.
Here are the some of the photos I took.
It's Chinese New Year (Year of the Rooster). I went into Manchester and took a few photos.
There was a few things happening but most of the activities are happening tomorrow so I'm planning to go out again and hopefully get some more photos.
Earlier today a friend sent me a video featuring a popular children's song celebrating the new year (see link below). There are numerous versions of this on the Internet.
*** Spoiler Alert *** Nothing much to write about here as I was returning home and travelling all day but here's what happened.
I got up early, grabbed all my stuff and set off for the train station. I got a train just before 07:00 to Shinagawa where I bought a ticket for the Narita Express. I didn't understand the different types of tickets available so I got the most basic one. I went to the platform. There were signs on the platform saying that all the seats were reserved. I just got on the front carriage which happened to be a Green Car which is First Class. I was the only one in the car for most of the journey and only a couple of people got on this car at another station. A couple of stations before the airport a conductor entered the car and asked me to pay for an upgrade on my Ticket.
When I got to the airport I headed for the check-in desk and checked in my luggage. I went through security and headed for the departure gate. Before the flight I had a large beer while I was waiting.
The first flight for Zurich left at 11:05 and took over 12 hours.
In Zurich there was not enough security desks open although they opened some more desk after customers complained. The staff were quite rude and complained a lot about customers not following the rules (even though these rules were not explained to anybody). The staff man-handled my external hard disk and cameras. I chose not to argue as I had already heard them threaten another customer with not being able to fly that day.
I had a coffee while I waited at the departure gate for the next flight at 17:10 (local time). I took 2 hours to get to Manchester.
I arrived in Manchester just after 18:00 and collected my luggage then went through the automated security checks and went home by tram. I was a bit tired and chose the wrong ticket from the ticket machine but I spoke to a staff member who changed the ticket for me.
I set off about 09:00 to head for Tachikawa. I stopped off at Osaki Station to take a look around. I needed to go to Shinjuku and change trains there. On the way I was confused about which train to catch and I wasn't sure if I had caught the right train, so I asked a nun who was stood on the platform for help. I arrived just before 11:00.
At 17:30 I met a friend from the UK who I used to work with. We went to an Izakaya that he knew until about 21:00.
While we were walking to our next location, my friend noticed that a policeman was carrying out a security check with a Japan man. Apparently this happens from time to time. This reminded me about something I had seen in the news advising that there was a raised security level at that time.
We went to another Izakaya for a bit and I returned to the station just before 23:00.
I caught a train back to Shinjuku where I changed trains to get to Shinagawa and then changed again to get to Kita-Shinagawa.
I woke up early and went to Shinagawa. I had some coffee and had a look around for a bit before going to Shibuya.
When I got there around 10:45 I took a few photos and went to Shibuya 109 and bought some clothes for my girlfriend. After that I took a few more photos and some video footage.
Just after 12:30 I caught a train to Harajuku and had another look around the wider area.
I took a few photos and then about 14:00 I returned to Shinagawa.
I spent a few minutes in the station then went to Kita-Shinagawa to drop off my shopping at the Air BnB.
Just after 16:00 I went for a walk in a quiet street around the back of the train station which was had numerous local small shops and convenience stores. I walked down the street for about 30 minutes stopping to look in shops on the way.
I bought some bananas at a fruit stall and caught a train to Shinagawa from Shin-Bamba Station.
From Shinagawa Station I caught a train to Shibuya to take more photos of people celebrating Halloween and to get some more video footage. I stayed in Shibuya until about 20:00 before returning to Shinagawa.
When I got back to Shinagawa, I stopped for a coffee in Anna Miller's opposite the station then headed back to Kita-Shinagawa. Anna Miller's is a chain of Restaurants in Japan (and Hawaii).


Jedi Mind Tricks Drops Wisdom On New Album "The Bridge and The Abyss"
Home>New Mixtapes>Jedi Mind Tricks Mixtapes> Jedi Mind Tricks Drops Wisdom On New Album "The Bridge and The Abyss"
This is for the lovers of boom-bap.
The latest Jedi Mind Tricks project is here. They have already given us a taste of the album with their single "You Have One Devil But Five Angels" and put out a music video for "La Muerta."Their latest studio album "The Bridge and The Abyss" hits today. The LP is almost three times the length of most new rap records, counting 19 tracks. It includes features by Yes Alexander, Eamon, CZARFACE, Thea Alana, Scott Stallone, and late Sean Price (R.I.P brother). The songs deal a lot with death and other rough realities, creating an intense experience for the listener who pay attention to lyrics.
Jedi Mind Trick's came up in what many might consider the sweet spot in the history of Hip-Hop.

The showcase of the immortals
On the 7th of April, tadalafil the 29th annual Wrestlemania will take place in the MetLife Stadium, New Jersey. Most readers will remember the WWE for its 'Attitude Era' from 1997 to 2002, where superstars such as Stone Cold Steve Austin wowed us with their edgy and controversial character driven storylines. Looking at the stand out matches on the 2013 card, it's becoming increasingly evident that WWE is somewhat reliant on a nostalgic appeal to increase its pay-per-view sales.
In a repeat of last year's main event, bonafide Hollywood movie star/WWE part timer, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will go one on one with the divisive character of John Cena. The rematch has received criticism in some quarters due to last year's version being (now comically) dubbed "Once in a Lifetime". The WWE has come under further heat for installing The Rock as its current WWE champion. Due to his busy movie schedule, The Rock has only been appearing sporadically on WWE television. Fans argue that the Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (the worst in-flight movie I have ever watched) star's inability to show up regularly on WWE's flagship show, Monday Night RAW, removes prestige from the championship belt itself. In an attempt to add an additional layer of drama to the already highly charged showdown, Cena's real life divorce is being pushed in promotional videos as an example of how the leader of Cenation's life went into a downward spiral after his defeat last year.
Perhaps the most eagerly anticipated match on the card is the legendary Undertaker's annual Wrestlemania match against indie circuit turned mainstream star, CM Punk. The Undertaker remains unbeaten in 20 Wrestlemania matches, and at age 47, one cannot help but feel this will be one of his last appearances. This match has coincided with the untimely passing of the Undertaker's once manager/kayfabe (google it) stepfather, Paul Bearer – a small, rotund man who used to follow the Undertaker around with a golden urn screaming "Ooooh yeeeesss!!!". The WWE, never likely to miss the opportunity to capitalize on current events, has worked this into the storyline with CM Punk finding various ways to disrespect the memory of The Undertaker's mentor.
In another example of the WWE's reliance on its past, an aging Triple H, who now has a buzz cut, will face off against wrestler-turned MMA fighter-turned wrestler-again Brock Lesnar, accompanied by his personal mouthpiece Paul Heyman of ECW fame. In recent months Lesnar has kayfabe (seriously, google it) broken the arms of both Triple H and Shawn Michaels, and the hip of Triple H's father-in-law and WWE chairman, Vince McMahon. Triple H will attempt to gain revenge for these actions but if he loses (pause for dramatic effect) he has agreed to retire from in ring competition…indefinitely (gasp).
In the final match of note, World Heavyweight champion, Alberto Del Rio, takes on the newly repackaged Jack Swagger, accompanied by his xenophobic Vietnam veteran manager, Zeb Colter. Colter condemns immigrants like Del Rio and demands they leave America to 'Real Americans' like Jack Swagger. Amusingly, conservative Fox news political commentator and general whack job, Glenn Beck, recently took this ridiculous character seriously and condemned the WWE on his radio show. The WWE responded by inviting him to RAW for a live 15-minute debate, which Beck declined, denying us of a potentially golden television moment.
Wrestlemania is the epitome of human spirit and the embodiment of the American dream. Some wrestlers have described a match at Wrestlemania as "free-falling from a plane for 20 minutes" and others have refused to rule out it one day being broadcast from the moon. This writer asks where will you be on April 7th?
Roll on Wrestlemania, roll on "Once in a Lifetime…. again". It was that or "Twice in a Lifetime". I couldn't pick.

RITAURSO Artopiagallery is pleased to present the first solo show in Italy by Mika Taanila (Helsinki, 1965), one of the artists representing the Nordic Pavilion at the next Venice Biennale.
Archive, memory, and an archeology of the future are the essence of his film, photography and documentary work. The artist and filmmaker studied anthropology before devoting himself to cinema, and the desire to explore the history and forms of reality has always been present in his work. A poetics of reality in which archive materials, obsolete media such as VHS tapes, found footage, photographs, images from TV and contemporary advanced film techniques are precious sources for reflecting on the ways in which technological devices, and their obsoleteness, have redefined the mediascape.
The exhibition, entitled memoria esterna and curated by Lorenza Pignatti, presents six photograms realized without the aid of a camera, taken from the series Black and White Movies (2013). Taanila has chosen some titles from a collection of classic black and white films (from 1924 to 1995), recorded on VHS, of which the artist recalled violent scenes which he then enacted on the VHS tapes themselves. The "remains" of the videocassettes were then collected, placed on photosensitive paper in a darkroom and exposed to the light directly. Further experimentation is featured in the film Optical Sound (2005), in which, by means of sophisticated filming techniques, Mika Taanila has documented the work of antique dot matrix printers that are transformed into unexpected low-tech musical instruments by [The User]. A hypnotic symphony that seduces the listener with its abstract and apparent imperfection, in which the new emerges from the old, to then return to its obsoleteness.
Mika Taanila (1965) lives and works in Helsinki. Filmmaker and visual artist, his works have been exhibited in important international group shows, including Aichi Triennale (2013), dOCUMENTA (2012), the Shanghai Biennale (2006), the Berlin Biennale (2004), Manifesta (2002) and the Istanbul Biennale (2001). His solo shows include balzer projects, Basel (2016), Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art di Helsinki (2013-14), Museum of Contemporary Art St. Louis (2013), TENT, Rotterdam (2013), Galleria Heino, Helsinki (2010), Badischer Kunstverein, Karlsruhe (2008), Dazibao, MontrÈal (2007) and Migrosmuseum, Zurich (2005). Taanila's films have been featured at more than 300 international festivals and special events, including the Toronto International Film Festival, IFFR Rotterdam, the International Short Film Festival in Clermont-Ferrand, Karlovy-Vary Film Festival, Midnight Sun Film Festival, CPH: DOX IDFA in Amsterdam an the Oberhausen Kurzfilmtage. His films have been shown in Italy at Pesaro Film Festival in 2005 and at the Milan Film Festival (2016), at the latest edition of I BOREALI, Nordic Festival and in the 2015 edition with a retrospective about his work at the Oberdan cinema in Milan. In 2015 he was given the Ars Finnica award. Mika Taanila is among the representatives of the Nordic Pavilion at the 57th International Art Exhibition, the Venice Biennale.
Lorenza Pignatti is an art historian, curator and essayist. She is a professor at the New Academy of Fine Arts (NABA) in Milan, she has taught at the University of Urbino and Bologna, and at the Academy of Applied Sciences and Arts at SUPSI in Lugano (Switzerland). She has curated a retrospective of the Spanish film director Pere Portabella for the Pesaro Film Festival, and an homage to the filmmaker and artist Mika Taanila for I Boreali Festival in Milan. Her writing has appeared in several books and catalogues and she has worked for La Repubblica, Il Manifesto, Il Corriere della Sera, Art Review, Artribune, No Order: Art in a Post-Fordist Society. She has edited Mind the Map: Mappe, diagrammi e dispositivi cartografici, Postmedia Books and co-edited (with Franco "Bifo" Berardi and Marco Magagnoli) the book Errore di sistema: Teoria e pratiche di Adbusters, Feltrinelli Editore, Milan.

How the government uses its powerful 'invisible weapon' to mislead the public [VIDEO] -- By Ginni Thomas, The Daily Caller
Disinformation was a widely used propaganda tool in the Soviet era. But did disinformation cease with the fall of the USSR?
Ronald Rychlak, a University of Mississippi School of Law professor, has co-authored a book on disinformation with the highest ranking Soviet bloc defector to come to the United States, Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa.
Rychlak talked with The Daily Caller about Benghazi and other current events that have caused him to worry about the government lying to push a political agenda.
"Disinformation has caused worldwide damage to the reputation of the United States, and now it is putting down roots in this country itself," Rychlak and Pacepa write in their book "Disinformation." "To fight this invisible weapon, we must first recognize it for what it is and decode its hidden mission, since it is usually clothed in innocuous civilian dress — as were the terrorists who killed three thousand Americans on Sept. 11, 2001."
Rychlak says they define disinformation as the ideologically-motivated effort to "implant false ideas" through an indirect, credible source. In this interview, he describes examples of both positive framing to promote a person, and negative framing to discredit a person, idea or institution.
"There are groups out there that openly acknowledge that they're trying to bring down the United States through means other than the ballot box," Rychlak said. "I mean, if you want to change the direction of America and you want to vote and you want to debate, you want to write letters to the editor, and you want to write op-eds, write a book, make a video, that's fair. That's what America is about. If you want to spread falsehoods, if you want to bring down individuals over false stories about their backgrounds — that kind of stuff is not."
Rychlak encourages information consumers to be skeptical of what they are reading or hearing.

Diablo Canyon nuclear plant: A legacy of powerful protests

California's last nuclear power plant has sparked heated protests since before its opening decades ago.
After reading the news that Pacific Gas & Electric Co. plans to close the Diablo Canyon plant in San Luis Obispo County, I headed for The Chronicle's archive in search of stories and photos that would help shed light on the plant's controversial history.
The earliest article mentioning Diablo Canyon was on a proposal to build a plant at the site in 1966, with the Sierra Club approving of the location as a mutually agreeable spot for California's next "clean, modern nuclear power plant."
Sound surprising? Well, PG&E's first choice was the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes, north of Pismo Beach. Environmental resistance to that plan had built quickly, with critics decrying "the vanishing beauty of California."
Years later, when the Diablo Canyon plant was nearly complete, more protests would arise after the discovery of the Hosgri earthquake fault. A growing anti-nuclear movement — fueled by the Three Mile Island accident in Pennsylvania and the opening of "The China Syndrome" movie on a nuclear plant coverup — helped the demonstrations gain strength.
Major anti-Diablo Canyon protests in San Francisco and attempts to blockade the plant's gates and occupy its grounds would become common stories splashed across TV newscasts and the paper's front page.

After 15 years of planning and construction, including a major redesign to increase safety in light of the fault's discovery, a key federal ruling gave PG&E the authority for low-level operation of the plant. This ruling, as noted in The Chronicle, would set the stage for what would be the largest anti-nuclear civil disobedience campaign in the nation's history.
The Abalone Alliance, a group of more than a dozen environmental organizations, received permission from a landowner to set up a base camp on 65 acres near the plant. Protesters practiced fence-climbing and were trained in nonviolent, noncooperation techniques. For nearly two weeks in September 1981, thousands of demonstrators would attempt to block the gates, leading to the arrest of 1,400 protesters.
A week later, embarrassed PG&E officials would disclose that engineers used the wrong blueprints when installing the plant's earthquake safety improvements, and operations were delayed once again.

After repairs and legal challenges, PG&E would finally receive permission from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to begin operation, and after further legal challenges, would get permission to fire up the plant on Oct. 30, 1984.
By mid-December 1984, the plant would be at 50 percent capacity, and in 1986 it set records for consistency and productivity. In 2007 discussions took place on ending the state's ban on new nuclear plants and making nuclear a greater energy source. In 2009, PG&E also started the process of renewing Diablo Canyon's licenses.
Then, everything changed. The 2011 Tohoku earthquake caused the Fukushima nuclear plant meltdown in Japan, and cheaper fuel sources gained traction. PG&E would change course, developments that are poised to lead to the plant's closing, decades after the first protests.

Liverpool need a sofa, not a lamp
Matt Ladson
@mattladson
Reports on Monday suggest Liverpool are finally read to bid for Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah, but they really should be finding players for positions that are of much greater concern.
Brendan Rodgers' team selection against Aston Villa backfired miserably as Liverpool lost an opportunity to consolidate their position among the top four.
With owner John W. Henry in attendance at Anfield for the first time since appointing Rodgers 20 months ago, the manager was seemingly keen to put on a show of attacking prowess. Instead, he provided the perfect proof of just where Liverpool's squad needs improving.
Eager to fit all of his attacking quarter of Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge, Philippe Coutinho and Raheem Sterling into the side, Rodgers changed shape from 4-3-3 to 4-4-2.
Gerrard and Holding Midfield Role
Given that he'd talked up Steven Gerrard's future as a holding midfielder within a three man midfield all week, Rodgers then went and exposed the captain within a more traditional midfield shape – something that numerous managers have previously tried and soon found it does not work.
Rafa Benitez wasn't keen on Gerrard as a centre-midfielder in a 4-4-2 and moved him to the right during the 2005/06 season. He then moved him into a more attacking central role behind Fernando Torres, that's where Gerrard's attributes were best used.
A host of England managers – Fabio Capello, Sven Goran Eriksson, Roy Hodgson – have all attempted to play Gerrard as a centre-midfielder in a 4-4-2 shape. It never worked.
So for Rodgers to attempt this again was extremely naive.
Gerrard as a holding midfielder within a 4-3-3, with dynamic players such as Joe Allen and Jordan Henderson from the current squad making up the other two midfielders, may well work against certain sides. Gerrard in a regular two man central midfield never has and never will work, he's far too exposed and not comfortable when pressed, as he was by Andreas Weimann on Saturday.
Will Gerrard, who turns 34 this summer, be the answer as a holding midfielder for Liverpool next season, hopefully in the Champions League? I sincerely doubt it.
Therefore, signing a player to fulfil the holding midfield role is vital for the development of Brendan Rodgers' first-team. Gerrard's role would be reduced, less relied upon, and he'd be rotated into the midfield for certain games.
It does not take a genius to see where Liverpool's strengths and weaknesses exist at present. We're wonderful in attack but woeful at the back.
Full-Backs
The full-back areas both need improving. Glen Johnson will surely leave this summer due to his contract situation, not that his form of late would make anybody want to give him a new deal. While Aly Cissokho won't be getting in Liverpool squads, let alone the starting XI once either of Jon Flanagan or Jose Enrique return.
Neither Enrique or Flanagan, though, are long-term solutions to the left-back spot and that's another area that needs a quality player who is able to play the role as Rodgers desires.
What isn't of a major concern is the attacking areas.
Hopefully Rodgers will revert back to 4-3-3 as soon as possible, which means Luis Suarez, Daniel Sturridge, Raheem Sterling and Philippe Coutinho challenging for the three attacking positions. For me, that's pretty healthy for the remainder of this season.
Mohamed Salah would be a great signing, no doubt, but is he really what Liverpool need right now? Far from it.
Full-backs and a holding midfielder are what are needed at Anfield. Another attacking player would be like going shopping for a sofa and getting a lamp, eh Rafa?

Q: Programmatically find valid values/data type that a Simulink block parameter accepts In Simulink, I can get value of a block dialogue parameter that is already given using get_param function. However, I'm interested in finding possible valid values that a block dialogue parameter accepts. For example, The Sum block accepts any combination of + and - signs only for its Inputs parameter. Is there a way to programmatically figure out this information?
To clarify, I want a function/method where I can pass as input a Simulink Block's name and a dialog parameter of that block. For example, I will pass Sum as a Simulink block name and Inputs as a parameter of that block.
What I expect as output is, + and - characters, so that I understand I can only use + and - characters for this block's Inputs parameter.
The page Block-specific Parameters lists the valid (and default) values for different Simulink blocks' parameters in the Values column of each table. Is there a way to find this information programmatically i.e. passing a block type/handler in some function and getting the validation rules for a particular parameter of that block?
Thanks!

A: If you take a look at the possibilities to check parameters in C MEX S-Functions it is "free" implemented C code which checks the parameters. At least for such cases there is no way to get a set of accepted parameters. The only possibility is to test pragmatically if a special value is accepted:
value_to_test='++9'
old=get_param('s1/Add','Inputs')
try
set_param('s1/Add','Inputs',value_to_test);
accepted=true;
set_param('s1/Add','Inputs',old);
except
accepted=false;
end

A: Beside the already suggested solution, you can check this out for a Gain block:
dlgParams = get_param(gcbh, 'DialogParameters');
dlgParams.Gain.Validity
%A struct with all accepted data, like: datatype, complexity, sign
dlgParams.Gain.Validity.Sign
%Returns: {'positive'  'negative'  'zero'}

This looks promising. However, a similar property is not available for Sum block. you can check the (dlgParams.Inputs) struct for ideas though.
Writing as an answer since I can't comment yet.
