Pregnant Haggerston woman wrote comic about cancer treatment

A woman turned the terrifying gamble of having cancer treatment while pregnant into a graphic memoir recording how life went on around her in a Hackney hospital.
Matilda Tristram, 32, is appearing at the Broadway Bookshop in Broadway Market next Wednesday (November 12) to talk about Probably Nothing, her comic novel recording the highs and lows of being an expectant mum undergoing chemotherapy.
The book has been praised for the light-hearted and sometimes hilarious approach to the serious subject.
Matilda, who lived in Hackney Road, Haggerston, at the time and was treated at Homerton Hospital, said: "People often ask why I decided to write about it. Suddenly life was so terrifying and different.
"I was meeting all these strange and interesting people in hospital, I didn't have to try very hard; there was so much to write about."
Matilda had been having symptoms of bowel cancer for more than a year that went unrecognised due to her young age.
She said: "I had been having stomach pain and gradually it got worse. By the time I was already well into my pregnancy, I was sick every time I ate.
"The tumour had completely blocked my bowels."
At four months pregnant, an MRI scan showed Matilda's cancer had spread. Doctors recommended urgent treatment to prevent it returning.
She said: "I had three options. I could have abortion and get chemo afterwards or carry my pregnancy to full term but delaying the treatment would put my health at risk. They couldn't really say if having my baby during chemo would cause problems or how high a risk it was.
"After researching online it was encouraging that a large number of women who had chemo were okay, and their babies were okay, so we decided it was a risk we wanted to take."
During the six-month chemo course Matilda had plenty of time to observe life around the hospital in Homerton Row.
She said: "I recorded how absurd and funny the rest of life seemed in contrast to what we were going through. I loved writing about people in east London, the trendy projects, funny conversations and how seriously people took things.
"It definitely helped to distract from what was going on and I could turn my emotions off.
"It was nice writing about the jokes me and [husband] Tom managed to share with each other. We did have some really nice times and it is helpful and healing to see how well we managed."
Halfway through her treatment Matilda, who now lives in South London, gave birth to a healthy son, James, and got the all clear after her course of chemo.
She is being monitored for the next five years to make sure the cancer doesn't return.
Signed copies of Probably Nothing will be on sale at the event, which starts at 7pm. Tickets cost £3. To book, visit broadwaybookshophackney.com/events.

Truthtellers of the Times
Interviews with Contemporary Women Poets
Janet Palmer Mullaney, Editor
Introduction by Toi Derricotte
Frank and lively conversations with fifteen fascinating contemporary poets
Truthtellers of the Times brings together the voices of fifteen of our most compelling contemporary poets and surveys a broad continuum of American literary culture. The voices are diverse in age, ethnicity, race, and sexuality, and together provide a mosaic portrait of the state of contemporary poetry by women. The women are social activists as well as poets and their appeal as individuals and artists resonates far beyond the academic setting. The poets represented are Robin Becker, Gwendolyn Brooks, Lucille Clifton, Lucha Corpi, Rita Dove, Joy Harjo, Josephine Jacobsen, June Jordan, Janice Mirikitani, Alicia Ostriker, Linda Pastan, Minnie Bruce Pratt, May Miller Sullivan, and Karen Swenson.
The interviews have been culled from the pages of Belles Lettres: A Review of Books by Women, a pioneering journal that for twelve years has brought to light the best of women's writing. The subjects covered are consistently engaging, and as varied as the poets themselves. The common concerns of women's story-telling, oral tradition, and daily habit emerge from these conversations, giving the collection an energizing unity even as it explores an astonishing range of experiences.
In each case, we see how the keen desire of each woman to be a poet triumphed over obstacles and constrictions, race prejudice and misogyny, the troubles and banalities of the everyday. The poets' frankness and humor, their obvious dedication to improving the world through the sharing of their gifts, and their hard-won wisdom make this book an invaluable forum on creativity and accomplishment.
Janet Palmer Mullaney is founding editor and publisher of Belles Lettres: A Review of Books by Women.

Ray Ban Glasses: Never Hide. If you don't' know Ray Ban glasses, you've' probably have been living under a rock. The eyewear brand is worldly renown as one of the most popular brands to rock on your face. Ray-Ban was created in 1937 by Bausch Lomb. The first version of Ray-Ban sunglasses was aviator frames that protected the eyes of the United States Army Air Corps. With a light frame and lenses that blocked out infrared and ultraviolet rays, aviators almost instantly adopted these aviator glasses. Almost 20 years later, Ray-Ban decided to go into other frames, including its wayfarer frames which gained crazy popularity in the 1950s and 60s.

The problem with CIAM and how simple tools can help you manage it
February 22, 2019 Brian Pontarelli
© Shutterstock / Andrey Suslov
Is CIAM a complicated, yet critically important part of app development? Yes, it most certainly is! If you are struggling to find a tool that could help you navigate around the hurdles, Brian Pontarelli has some tips.
Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) is an important gateway mechanism that deals with both developers as well as intended customers of a said developed product. Developers need a way to capture and store user information like the identity of customers and various other profile details. At the same time, the idea is to open up or unlock a certain number of features or options within the application while keeping others locked out.
In itself, CIAM is a rather complex part of app development. There is the issue of privacy and storage as users are often asked for private information in order for them to access the app. This can range anywhere from e-mail, social networks, and in some cases, even banking information. At the era of data leaks and mismanagement, it is not far-fetched to think of data privacy as a hot-button issue. However, developers are well aware of the fact that, in order to offer a high level of customer utility and to have applications work like it was tailor-made for each individual user, a lot of data about individual users is required.
In the year 2018—one of the most data leak-prolific years so far—there were at least 20, high-profile data leaks that affected hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people around the world, reports Business Insider.
Surveys have shown that customers are gladly willing to leave a service that does not manage their data well and, at the same time, are more than willing to pay extra for better service.
Apart from just data management, CIAM covers a number of services and each of them is a veritable pain point for developers. Starting with simple registration, it goes on to account management, consent management, and multi-factor authentication, to name a few. To add to this list, end users need to experience a seamless transition in the way the application works across platforms, be it mobile or on the web. Scaling is another issue related to performance that just cannot be ignored.
What makes a strong CIAM system?
There are a number of pointers that are often seen as the cornerstones, or pillars of great CIAM:
While CIAM is often seen as a bit of a stumbling block for new developers, it need not always be so. There are tools available in the market that take care of most, if not all of the above pain points effectively. Tools like FusionAuth have been created specifically to help developers ease into CIAM without giving up scale, data privacy while offering user management that is not just flexible, but also unlimited in volume.
To be fair, FusionAuth is not the only such tool in the market right now. Having said that, they are a service that offers unique solutions for developers, the main one being it is 100% free for unlimited users. Unlike open access platforms that usually have limited options and mass market alternates that have hidden costs attached to certain features, FusionAuth has all its features open to unlimited users.
SEE ALSO: How to estimate programming time
Here is a quick rundown of a few alternates to FusionAuth:
Auth0—an expensive alternate
Okta—just as, if not more expensive than Auth0
Firebase—limited in scope, with nearly no features and a cog in the great Google machine
Cognito—nearly featureless and a part of the Amazon juggernaut
KeyCloak—open source, but limited features
Passport.js—another bare-bones open source alternative
In comparison, FusionAuth's features include stable scalability, user management segmentation, detailed reporting, capable of running on most active platforms, over any kind of framework. The main focus, however, remains its CIAM capabilities, all that with inbuilt email localization.
Is CIAM a complicated, yet critically important part of app development? Yes, most certainly. Does it have to be a slow, expensive, and a security threat to both users and developers? No, most certainly not.

Terri Cullen, one of the founding members of The Wall Street Journal Online, is joining Reuters next week as wealth management editor.
In her new role, Cullen, a financial journalist, author and television and radio commentator, will edit the personal investing coverage on Reuters.com and serve as editorial lead for a new service the company is launching later this year.
Cullen has previously worked for the Journal, helping to launch WSJ.com in 1995 and working as an editor and columnist covering personal finance and financial markets for the next 13 years.
NEW YORK (January 7, 2010) — Reuters today announced the appointment of Terri Cullen, award-winning financial journalist, author, and television & radio commentator, to the newly created role of wealth management editor. Cullen, who begins on Monday, will be based in New York and will report to Richard Baum, global editor of consumer media, Reuters.
In this new role, Cullen will serve as both editor of personal investing coverage on Reuters.com as well as the Editorial lead for Reuters wealth management initiative, a new service due out later this year that will leverage Thomson Reuters business to business wealth assets in an effort to create an online consumer offering for Reuters.com's vast audience of affluent, business professionals.
In 1995, Cullen was instrumental in the launch of The Wall Street Journal Online, and for the 13 years following, served as an editor and columnist overseeing personal finance and financial markets coverage for WSJ.com. She also produced its award-winning "Fiscally Fit" column and was the author of "The Wall Street Journal. Complete Identity Theft Guidebook," published in 2007.
"Terri is a first-class journalist with impressive subject matter expertise, web experience, and entrepreneurial spirit. I am very excited to have Terri aboard," said Baum.

Recently, the Cleveland City Council passed legislation aimed at giving local law enforcement the power to enforce federal restrictions on flying drones (also known as unmanned aircraft systems or "UAS") within city limits. The Cleveland law mirrors federal rules on operating both commercial and recreational UAS, including the restriction on flying within a five-mile radius of an airport.
Many other Ohio cities are also considering similar UAS legislation. Such activity raises the question as to whether the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or state and local governments, or both, have the authority to regulate UAS. The FAA maintains it has regulatory authority over matters pertaining to aviation safety, including regulation of UAS. To address this issue, the FAA has issued a Fact Sheet, which provides information about the federal regulatory framework for use by states and localities when considering laws affecting UAS.
The FAA maintains that any state or local law that attempts to regulate use of the navigable airspace will be pre-empted by the FAA's regulatory scheme. This would render such laws unenforceable. Examples of potential encroachment on federal regulations include UAS restrictions on flight altitude, flight paths, and operational bans, such as a city ordinance that bans anyone from operating UAS within the city limits, or within certain distances of landmarks.
However, laws traditionally related to state and local police power generally are not subject to federal regulation and so would not encroach upon the FAA's regulatory framework. Examples of such police power include requiring police to obtain a warrant prior to using a UAS for surveillance, banning UAS use for voyeurism, and prohibiting UAS with firearms or other weapons attached.
State and local governments that are considering UAS legislation should consult with the FAA to determine whether a proposed law would be enforceable or subject to pre-emption by the FAA's regulatory framework.

Gettin' it Write / Online Media / Web Influence
New Midwest Online News Entry
by Keith Schneider October 27, 2007 October 27, 2007
John Bebow, an active member of the association of newsies-who-became-public-interest-advocates, sent an interesting item in his weekly email alert about the emergence of online news organizations in the Midwest. John diverged from a decorated daily news career, that included stops at the Detroit News and Chicago Tribune, to become the executive director of the Center For Michigan, a nearly two-year-old non-profit that focuses on state economic and competitiveness issues that was founded by Phil Powers, the founder and former owner of a successful chain of newspapers in southern Michigan.
Mr. Bebow notes that "traditional newspaper newsrooms continue to shrivel. In Michigan this year, the Booth papers closed their Lansing bureau. Gannett papers in cities ranging from Battle Creek to Detroit are cutting staffs with buyouts and, in some cases, layoffs. And Detroit News Business Editor Mark Truby, widely respected as one of the very best journalists in the state, left for a corporate job at Ford and, in the process, became the latest in a long line of veteran journalists (including your newsletter author) to leave newsrooms for other opportunities. In the face of these declines in traditional media, new kinds of journalism — funded by philanthropy — are cropping up all over the place. Michigan is ripe with great stories waiting to be told and meaty issues deserving of in-depth coverage. Journalism funded by philanthropy is a great hope for the future of public discourse in Michigan."
Part of John's post is personally satisfying. Of the five independent online news organizations he cited, I've been deeply involved in two, the Michigan Land Use Institute and Circle of Blue, both based in Traverse City. They reflect the ability of talented journalists, editors, producers, and graphic designers to make the complex simple — land use and economic policy in the Institute's case, the global freshwater crisis for Circle of Blue — and produce consistently compelling work that is reaching large audiences. The 21st break-up of mass — mass media, mass audiences, mass marketing — has opened the opportunity for news organizations to be small, nimble, very good, attract significant numbers of visitors, have influence, and be financially successful.
The other side of that trend, of course, is that the large news organizations of the 20th century, designed to reach the masses, are struggling to develop the new business model.
The New York Times, which literally shrunk the size of the pages of its print edition a few months ago, is likely to survive as a global news organization because it is great, and it is building an exceptional Web presence that attracts seven or eight times more readers to its online report than its print newspaper. But it's only a matter of time, probably sooner than later, before the Times decides that all that infrastructure — forests, paper plants, printing plants, delivery trucks and the rest — needed to deliver a paper edition to roughly 1 million readers a day is just not worth the trouble. About 20 percent of what I write for the Times now heads to what editors call the "web-only" report.
Regional daily newspapers and many general interest magazines, though, may not survive in print or online. The cost of maintaining 50 or 100-member newsrooms at roughly $100,000 a person (including taxes and benefits) is just too high.
The other intriguing portion of John's alert concerned a number of prominent old-school journalists in Minneapolis who say they've raised over $1.2 million to open Minnpost.com, a new online daily set up as a non-profit. The roster of staff and contributors numbers 45 people. Though just a handful are full or part-time payroll employees, and the rest freelancers who will earn from $100 to $600 per piece, that looks to me like a sizable weekly and monthly churn. I have no doubt that what Minnpost.com publishes will be useful. Journalists love adventure and challenge and Minnpost.com is both. I wish the group great success.
But as an observer of new models I have a question. Will this distinctive mixing of strategies — large numbers of reporters seeking to succeed financially in an online news world that rewards compact newsrooms — survive? And if it does, will Minnpost.com have invented something important for readers and their communities?
The new online journalism models that have been successful — Grist, Alternet, MLUI, Sightline, MetroMode, Truth Dig, Talking Points Memo, Newwest.net, Voice of San Diego, and others — thrived because they were good and small. A few editors, a small number of journalists, a graphic designer or two, a Web producer, a multi-media producer. That is especially important for the online non-profits because attracting donors and foundations is hard work. Though foundations say they admire communications, and call on their grantees to pay attention to what they say and how they say it, grants for communications are some of the toughest money to find. The measurements of success, as defined by philanthropies and donors, can be murky. Is it readership, page views, changes in policy?
One small news operation that became large is Slate, which operates on a profit model, is owned by the Washington Post, has 59 editorial staff members, and was fortunate to have Bill Gates' money to get started in 1996.
I don't know of any independents, especially a startup online non-profit daiy news operation set to launch on November 8, that ever had as many journalists ready to go as Minnpost. com. It is for that reason alone that if they're still here a year from today it's a potentially enormous breakthrough for regional media. I join a number of my colleagues in the online news world in wishing our friends in Minneapolis the best.

Neil Young performed "Long May You Run" for the Vancouver Olympics Closing Ceremony: Winter Games 2010. Snow drifted down from ceiling as Neil strolled about with harmonica rack and Hank Williams' Martin D-28 guitar.
Following Young's performance, the cauldrons were extinguished and the torch arms retracted.
Many, many 1000's of instant mini-reviews on Twitter indicated that Young's performance was highlight of closing ceremonies. Many felt that what followed Young's performance was a travesty and embarrassment to music fans and Canada's heritage.
A brief video clip of Neil Young Olympics.
Somewhat surprising poll results of what song Neil Young would play at Olympics.
"Long May You Run" -- which was played -- came in 5th with 8%.
"Oh Canada" was voted #1 with 19%, followed by "Four Strong Winds" with 16%. next -- our vote "Rockin' in the Free World" with 8%
The surprise was "This Note's For You" in 3rd with 15%. Can't figure that one? Probably the result of the f'n Freepers cramming the poll. Get a life.

are you kidding me?! Neil is Everywhere so why not at the olympics!
Oh simply because Neil is a god of garage rock and roll and not of merchandising, and because Vancouver 2010, clearly, is not a ecological event. Remember This note's for you ? Been a long time.
I'd like RITFW but I think it's going to be hoG.
What did you for T-man?
joey p
I'm going with Rockin in Free World. T-ette's says HoG.
I can envision an all-star Canadian blow-out finale with RITFW cranked up to 11 followed by massive fireworks, confetti, balloons, lasers, etc.
Maybe be the debut of a re-formed Crazy Horse for a bonus?
But what the f do we know? We're just a dreamin man...

You know what would be the most Neil-esque thing to do? Play a new song no one has ever heard before.
Just a thought. :)

Depends... if he's gunna whip out ol black and go full on electric?... or...Solo acoustic?!
For the sheer anthemic value, what about ...Neil with "surprise Equines"...YEP YOU GUESSED IT....

Give the guy a break. He's a hockey fan! If I could get tickets to the gold medal game this afternoon, just by playing a song or two, I'd be doing the same thing.
You're all still beating the Horse dead. It ain't gonna happen. This is about Neil Young the Canadian, not Neil Young the jockey horse rider.
....he's probably gonna write a long letter...........all the way to his Canadian Prairie Home..
I'll be tuned in for ANYHTING
- Not Rotten Johnny
(anon 12:04-this jokes for YOU)
Not RITFW, it's too American.
So, Neil's tour page is empty.
Not FSW, Lightfoot and Tyson played Alberta Bound and Four Strong Winds in Calgary in '88.
Neil's tour page is not empty. It has become interactive... When you arrive there you see nothing. Simply refresh the page and you will see were NY play.
Word has it that the son of one of Canada's famous hockey writers will play at closing ceremonies.
Heart of Gold + Rockin' in the Free World
I tried refreshing the page but still nothing.
Never mind. Firefox doesn't show anything but explorer does. Weird.
In Firefox, go to the tour page, right click, and then select "Play".
The tour dates will now show.
God knows why this happens, I discovered it last week.
Canada scores!

What's next? Will Neil sign up for a month long engagement at a casino in Las Vegas like his hero Elvis "The King" Presley? I'm Wonderin..
Next time Neil will play for Coca Cola ! Neil, this time you lose.
What's the difference between a Las Vegas casino and a Crazy Horse fan?
There's no difference. They both want NY to play some old tricks for them.
Too bad there is no one named 'Stills' on Team Canada, with Crosby and Nash in the Game and Neil Young in the audience!
I think Comes a Time.
-tell me lies later
Journey Through the Past
Boy, again with Neil Young the sell out. It's probably not worth commenting on, except to say that if that's your take, you obviously don't know WTF you're talking about. I'm thinking RITFW, but who knows? I'd love something from the new album, too, but then we'd have to listen to more braying that he's just promoting his new album, or some other asinine thing from people who can't think past their belly button. Whatever it is, I'll be glad to hear it, that is if I can somehow remember one of the central things that defines Neil: "Just do what you want. Don't listen to anyone else."

Neil Rocks! No matter what.
blind river, 1963? I thought it was '62...
Well, before the link...Who picked it?
Like every other 'Neiler',I didn't really care what he played!
The fact that he was invited to play as a born Canadian is such an honour to his heritage...and...a testament to his legend status, reflected at such a prestigous
Personally, I would have thought a grand finale on electric, doin' some more 'anthemic', iconic number would have had a bigger impact, although I do see the significance of the tune he selected.
Hey...a bigger audience than the days playin' the coffee shops in Ontario just the same!
LONG MAY YOU RUN NEIL!!..long may you run.
I used to tell Neil about the apple trees and the nice house and the beautiful life that would await us in Omemee. I must have made the point rather strongly.

Thanks Neil for giving such a warm and human performance to close out the best Winter Olympics ever. You are the master.
Thanks for all the amazing athletes and their families and friends. Especially thanks to the Canada and USA hockey teams for playing a game for the ages. God bless Brendan Burke. Favorite single scene...when they showed Joanie Rochette. Time fades away....

Well, it was
back in Blind River in 1962
When I last saw you alive
But we missed that shift
on the long decline
Long may you run.
Yeah Anonymous, this ALWAYS happens when ya get a "Neil" impersonator tryin' to sing Neil.
Fallon, I thought you'd KNOW the lyrics to LMYR..otherwise a good impression! lol

I just saw Neil on German TV and I'm deeply moved. Scott and Rassy would have been so proud of their son.
Why 1963? I don't know either...
Love, Liza
I must be the only one who thinks not playing After the Gold Rush was a huge missed opportunity. The song is beautiful, nostalgic, Canadian - and it would have fit the occasion in so many ways.
A few: Canada - all-time Gold Medal champs.
Kim Yu-Na - the new "Queen" of ladies figure skating.
Plus, Young already played "Long May You Run" weeks earlier - and more fittingly - at Conan's last show.

The citizen of the planet playing to his audience, now that's cool! How big was that audience across the globe?
I think he said a few years back, "it's a solo gig" so when I saw him with the floor to himself it made perfect sense to me. Can you imagine how he felt?
Has there been any bigger? or as big? Elvis, Lennon, Dylan?
Everybody's alone! He's in a league of his own.
Happy = being a Neil Young fan!
(ps., Doc, was that you I saw outside the Sydney Opera House in Full Moon?.....just wondering)
I'm guessing that's the largest world-wide audience Neil has ever played in front of.
I can't imagine anything being close.
He did LiveAid, he did the Oscars, he did a 9-11 tribute........but i doubt any come close to last night.

Alone, in black, under the torch that died out as he ended? That was unbelievably cool! The funny thing is, how many of the athletes, let alone audience in general, had any idea about the song. A beautiful elegy..... to a car.
The Olympics were cool, but how about that new BD-Live download that showed up over the weekend??
Got to love this Archives set on Blu-ray!!

Fuckin' Shakey. He did it again.
Just when people mistakenly assume the eco-friendly car is out of gas, he revs it up and with a whisper, roars over the entire Olympic closing ceremonies. After the hours of phoniness, the children lip-syncing to auto-tuned tracks (all of whom will be forgotten in a matter of months, or perhaps a few years if they're really lucky), Neil fires up the ultimate number for the road. I feel bad about not expecting him to fly. I should have known better.
What's something every athlete has in common? They run. From snowboarders to ice skaters to bobsled team leaders, they run, and the longer they run, the longer they live their dreams. While "Long May you Run" may seem on the surface to be a simple homage to a long-dead hearse, in our hearts we know what it really means.
Forget all the extraneous stuff. Forget the merchandising, the corporate sponsors. Instead, keep in mind the young people who are wrapping up the dreams that they've been preparing for as long as they can remember. Keep in mind that due to the very nature of athleticism, the skill will diminish long before they're ready. The knees will inevitably be injured, the muscle tone will diminish. And the desire to win, so strong in youth, will eventually give way to more mundane hopes and wishes.
What can you hope for such a person? What can you offer that applies to each of them on an equal level? Only Neil Young has the answer: "Long May You Run". Neil wasn't singing to the prime minister, nor the head of the IOC. He wasn't singing to you or me, watching on TV at home. He was singing to every one of those athletes who made it to the culmination of the dream, and yet have so long to continue on. All they want to do is to be able to keep running. Watch their reaction as Old Neil strums his even older Martin guitar. Watch as the message sinks in and hits home. And then acknowledge Neil Young, not only as the greatest singer or songwriter of our time, but as the ultimate communicator spanning multiple generations, one who chooses a message that's perfect for the occasion. We all should have known he'd come through, and that his very choice to appear at such an event was done for a reason that was much bigger than being on the world's biggest stage. He sang to those who most deserved to hear him, and imbued all of them with something they can take home that in some ways is more vital that the shiny medals round their necks.
Long may he run.
One word sums up Canada's invitation
to Neil Young appearing at the Olympics..."Appreciated". No "sorry" or "oops", we didn't invite you.
The performance was all it should have been.
I'm just glad he wasn't wearing a mountie uniform!
Canada put on a great Olympics! Right up there with Lillehammer (which was fantastic). The Canadians have such great self-depricating humor. They are like Minnesotans in that way - a nation of witty Garrison Keilors, but with their own brand of experiences. Very quirky and real. In that context, Neil Young is the quinessential Canadian, even after all those years in California.
Is it any wonder that the north country has produced such people as Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, and Bob Dylan?
But, okay, now. I have had my full serving of Long May You Run. I'm ready for the next thing.
You made us canucks proud Neil, very fitting song, after the gold rush would not have been canadian, we know we swept the gold podium, no need to bloat about it in song. LMYR was perfect.
Thanks Neil

I would have enjoyed "Four Strong Winds" more (and think it would have fit the situation better), but it was a good performance by Neil and I'm glad he did it.

I loved the song he chose, as any as he would, as always so appropiate, I put my mobile to wake me up, (in the middle of the night in Europe) to see him again live, but now I can't see the video again as I'm not from the Usa...sad! I liked him perform solo on the ground, not on the stage as the other "stars"... he's the Universe all toghether!
Yep, That was me Sony!...but it was OK.....It was a Harvest Moon! lol
Neil really deserves all these acknowledgments. It's also a good publicity for Neil and naturally I'm happy for him.I know that these performances, tv shows and so on have a big emotional impact on many people. Not on me, anyway.I'm not a big fan of these great things. I don't think that there is much art in these exhibitions. Anyway, I don't even watch the television.I have found more passion on the Neil heartfelt words in the last BD live, dedicated to the dead companions(dated 21 january, meaningfully).I think that LMYR is also for all these people and Johnson in particular. Just an opinion, anyway.
Anonymous 6:58,
"After the Gold Rush"...hmmm that's inneresting you bring that song up.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you got me thinking.(no,don't correct me yet!)...
I've never really heard Neil do this at any of his "live" recent concerts.
Is it that Neil's "early seventies Neil" voice...high beautiful and piercing on ATGR, is not as reachable today?
Like a red wine maturing with age, his voice's taste and texture are changing.
Dreamin man, HOG... beautiful sounds end emotions conveyed through Neil's voice in song....
Sugar Mountain, Massey Hall..that touch of innocence in his voice that sadly might never be reached today ,live, as Neil ages gracefully and sings with a maturity and contentment, that we too, as fans, are aging with ourselves.
Yeah, After the Goldrush (the song) IS from another era ,another time.
I love nostalga, I love that period from the seventies, and I'm glad I experienced these days first hand....but I also love, with anticipation, the unpredictibility and spontaneity of Neil's musical direction today.
As I've said on a previous post..what other artist with such an incredible and changing musical career spanning some 50 yrs, is producing and inspiring us with music that spans every generation?
line'm up baby..coz I can't think of any like Neil!
After The Gold Rush last played live 2008-03-14 - 718 days

Last night I saw Jonathan Demme's new movie on Neil -- Neil Young Trunk Show. I went from Hartford to Boston to see it. I cannot wait for everyone to see it. It will knock your socks off. Absolutely amazing. A bookend to Prairie Wind, but an opposite, not a matching one. It is raw and visceral and full of the power (I don't know what other word to use) of N.Y.'s music.
Power and soulfulness.
His voice is in great shape. His "reading," his inflections and changes in phrasing are masterful. His guitar playing is unworldly. He's totally at home and in the groove and at the peak of his powers. And the concert shows the range of his emotion and vision. There is so much there that most people just grab bits of it. I'm a huge fan and I came away thinking, "Is it possible I have underestimated this man?"
The genius of Demme is that he puts you right in Young's world. If someone says, "why do you love Neil Young?" you can just hand them this DVD. They will either watch with mouth agape and join us or be totally befuddled.
Last but not least: The SOUND quality is 4 stars. You hear the best versions of those songs you will ever hear, unless you were at the concert. I heard substantially the same concert in Boston a few days later in 2007 and I felt I was taken back to that place .
Magic, magic music making. This film is a gift from above.
--Keith C. Burris
Well, there you go Anonymous!
I didn't know or never heard this!..
although that doesn't surprise me..I'll rescind everything I just said..coz after reading Keith's comments which I fully endorse,
I too am loving this quality of Neil's voice.
My only point I was making was these songs, with his voice changing, take on a new interpretation which is never really a bad thing when it comes to Neil..
Although its a bit of a worry when he forgets his own lyrics! lol, tic
That was not Hank Williams' Martin D-28 guitar. It was a Martin D-18.

At Qui, Odam Goes 'Along for the Ride,' While Feit Faults Their 'Reaching for the Stars'

Photo: Adrienne Breaux/EATX
Austin's food media has taken their time before reviewing Qui, Paul Qui's flagship restaurant that is the height of Austin buzz, but the wait is finally over. Both Matthew Odam at The Statesman and Rachel Feit at The Chronicle have dropped reviews today that give wildly different assessments of the restaurant's playful and ever-changing menu. The Chronicle has also posted a review of Garbo's Fresh Maine Lobster truck because, hey, why not.
Odam characterizes Qui as facing dueling expectations, characterizing one "camp" as "blinded by adoration," and the other as folks who will hold him to "an impossible standard." Qui, Odam argues, is playing to a "third" camp, those who are "those willing to go along for the ride." Highlights of said ride include a marcona almond gazpacho "made of delicate building blocks" and the "symphony" of Rabbit 7 Ways. Less successful is the hen rice that "suffered from too much salt." Dessert gets high marks, with praise going to the "decadent and savory cheddar cheese ice cream." Director of ops June Rodil is "gregarious" and the servers are " some of the best" in Austin, but Odam observes that the practice of having the chef who prepared the dish serve it falls flat. Qui is currently in his "top 10 Austin restaurants" and has the potential to "land in the top three." He rates it an 8.5 out of 10.
Rachel Feit is less impressed by Qui's playfulness, arguing that some dishes push "the limits of appropriateness." Feit is a fan of the "pasta curry style" which was an "unexpected treat," and the Salt & Time bavette was "as perfect as any steak can be." The Rabbit 7 Ways has become "the darling of foodies and critics alike (this author included)." But Feit says that Qui is "straining to be too clever" with dishes like the "limp and rubbery" roast quail and the "drippy and curdy" chawanmushi. Dessert gets slammed, with Feit likening the "Qui" lime pie and the cheddar cheese ice cream sandwich to an "obscure joke that I just don't get." She wonders if Qui is a "victim to the demands of his own celebrity" and says the cuisine is "testing the audience to see how long they will clap." In contradiction to all those inspiring elementary school posters, Feit cautions Qui to do "less reaching for the stars."
Meanwhile, Kate Thornberry visits Garbo's Fresh Maine Lobster, which she describes as the only place to get such a delicacy besides Perla's (perhaps she has not heard of Dock & Roll?). Thornberry is a fan of the affordable and fresh lobster, virtues of the owner's connection to her "lobster-fishing family in New England." Their "crammed" sandwiches are "rich and heavenly."

Thursday November 24th through January 4th 2015.

. And don't forget to refill your medications in a timely manner!
We hope this Season brings you and your family lots of joy and blessings!


The legendary Philip Kingsley (he coined the phrase "bad hair day") founded his world renowned hair clinic and treated everyone from Audrey Hepburn to the regular man in the street. And he was loved by them all. Now his daughter Anabel is following in his footsteps and has become a trichologist herself. Here she gives us some valuable insight into the many reasons that can cause hair thinning and how some of the clinics amazing products can help.
How our hair looks and behaves influences the way we feel about ourselves – our sense of femininity, individuality and attractiveness. Hair loss can also make us feel isolated. For a woman, hair loss seems strange and uncommon. However, female hair loss is incredibly common. In fact, 1 in 3 women will experience some form of hair loss. While this doesn't take away from the fact that hair loss, and I have experienced it myself, is vastly upsetting, it is good to know that you are not alone. And what's more, a lot can be done to help.
When your follicles are sensitive to androgens, you should use topical drops that protect them. We make drops called Tricho 7 that are available in our retail range. We also have prescription drops at our London Clinic. They can be most effective when used together – Tricho 7 in the morning, and the prescription drops before bed. The goal is to shield your follicles from those pesky hormones 24/7.
Leading up to, during, and after menopause, oestrogen levels drop and the percentage of androgens rises in relation to them. This can spell trouble for our hair, and even more so if we have a genetic predisposition. Certain Hormone Replacement Therapies can be very good for your hair, others can be detrimental. If HRT is something you are considering, talk to your doctor about options. If you are already receiving HRT and you are finding your hair is suffering, talk to your doctor about an alternative therapy.
Another common cause of hair loss is telogen effluvium (excessive daily hair shedding). This is not dependent on genes, but instead is a reactive type of hair loss. It usually occurs as a result of an internal upset. The most common of these are nutritional deficiencies, a thyroid imbalance, stress, pregnancy or illness. To treat telogen effluvium you need to find the cause and rectify it. This almost always involves blood tests and a close look at your lifestyle and diet. For instance, if you are iron or B12 deficient, you will need to adjust your eating habits and take relevant nutritional supplements. If you have an underlying medical condition, such as hyper or hypo thyroid, taking medications will help. And if you are stressed, you should find a stress-reducing activity that you are comfortable with – such as yoga, mindfulness, meditation Pilates or swimming. Often, more than one thing can be going on – and you will have to make changes accordingly. Re-formatting your lifestyle and diet is not always fun, and stress management certainly isn't easy – but they will definitely benefit your hair.
You may think you are losing your hair, or it is thinning, when in fact it is simply breaking off. Or the two can be occurring together. The latter is not uncommon as fine hairs are naturally more fragile and harder to manage, which may mean you spend more time styling and applying heat to it. In all instances, treatment for breakage is the same. Firstly, take steps to prevent it. Something as simple as correct detangling can really help. Start at your ends and gently work your way up – starting at the top increases friction and the likelihood of snapping strands. Also, choose a brush that is gentle on your hair and scalp. The best have rounded, plastic prongs and a cushioned, vented base. I love our Vented Paddle Brush.
To help strengthen your hair, use a weekly pre-shampoo conditioning treatment, like our multi-award winning Elasticizer. Apply this to damp hair at least 20 minutes before you plan to shampoo. You can even sleep with it in or apply it before going to the gym. Moisturizing treatments are especially important if you colour or bleach your hair, or if your hair is past shoulder length.
With any hair loss, whether you have a gradual reduction in volume, or you are losing too much hair, a holistic approach to treatment is essential. This involves targeting the hair follicle itself, bolstering the strength or strands with products, and giving your hair extra nutritional support. We formulated a 3-step holistic regime, called Trichotherapy, specifically for women with hair loss and/or reduced hair volume. It contains anti-androgenic drops, a thickening protein spray, as well as a multi vitamin and mineral supplement. You can also do a lot yourself to encourage healthy hair growth. As mentioned, diet, stress reduction and taking care of yourself are key.
Check out the Philip Kingsley website.
HRT doesn't really come in brands but rather in type. I prefer the bio identical variety which comes in cream or lozenge form. If you suffer from menopausal symptoms it could help with all kinds of things. If you're suffering from hairloss then do check out the articles on Ageless about this subject.
I am contacting you as an individual, not as a business. I would very much like to have a supply of the items you mention in the paragraph below. Do I have to attend the London Clinic to get the prescription drops, or can this be done on line? I live in Bristol but it would not be a problem to get to London to attend an appointment. I am a 66 year old female. thank you for your help and advice.
I'm not sure if you need to have an appointment for these drops. I suggest you give them a call on 020 7629 4004 and see what they suggest.

Q: Spring cloud stream application quits after one garbage input I have a problem with a Spring cloud stream application that is using the KStream component. It is listening to one input and directing messages to one output after processing them.
It is expecting a JSON string to come in and tries to convert it to a Spring Tuple on arrival. Reverse of this happens when sending the message out.
Problem is that when a Sysadmin wants to test a topic with a kafka-console-producer.sh for instance... and prints a string

"lol"

I would expect that the framework has at least some fault tolerance for such behaviour. You cannot expect input to be nice and pretty always.
So I looked into Spring documentation: https://docs.spring.io/spring-cloud-stream/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/#_configuration_options
and there are some configuration options for what seems to be some hidden implementation of retry logic incase of failures. For instance the maxAttempts parameter. But this parameter already has the default value of 3 used and yet I don't see Spring cloud stream applications making any attempts to rescue from this error.
So I would like to know what is the recommended way of building some bad input tolerance for Spring cloud stream applications.
The configuration for the application looks like this:
spring:
    cloud:
        stream:
          bindings:
            input:
              content-type: application/json
              destination: inbound
              group: fraud
              consumer:
                headerMode: raw
            output:
              content-type: application/x-spring-tuple
              destination: outbound
              producer:
                headerMode: raw
                useNativeEncoding: true

spring.cloud.stream.kstream.binder.configuration:
  key.serde: org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.Serdes$StringSerde
  value.serde: org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.Serdes$StringSerde

A: In Spring Cloud Stream 1.3.x (Ditmars), there is only very limited support for error handling for Kafka Streams. In fact, it is up to the application to handle any errors in 1.3 kafka streams library. However, in 2.0.0, we are adding support for KIP-161. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-161%3A+streams+deserialization+exception+handlers
Using this new feature in 2.0.0 version of the kafka streams binder, you can either logAndSkip the records or logAndFail the records on deserialization errors. In addition to these, the binder also provides a DLQ sending exception handler implementation. Docs are still getting updated on the 2.0 line for all these. I will update the docs links here once thats ready. But, here is the gist of it.
spring.cloud.stream.kafka.streams.binder.serdeError: sendToDlq (or logAndFail or logAndSkip)
spring.cloud.stream.kafka.stream.bindings.input.consumer.dlqName:[dlq name] - If this is not provided it will be error.[incoming-topic].[group-name].
Then you will see the records in error from deserialization in the DLQ topic.
Once again, these features are only available in the 2.0.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT and will be part of the upcoming 2.0.0.RC1 release.

Q: #SQL - Order By matching record first i need help to order this table (named "season") , by matching actual date with the BEGINDATE
ID          NAME                 BEGINDATE
----------- -------------------- ----------
1           2014-2015            2014-10-01
2           2015-2016            2015-10-01
3           2016-2017            2016-10-01
4           2017-2018            2017-10-01

for example:
actual date is 2016/10/28 so we are in season 2016-2017 (id=3)
so the result should be
ID          NAME                 BEGINDATE
----------- -------------------- ----------
3           2016-2017            2016-10-01
1           2014-2015            2014-10-01
2           2015-2016            2015-10-01
4           2017-2018            2017-10-01

UPDATE (SOLVED)
what i finally did was:
DECLARE @IDACTIVE AS INT = (SELECT MAX(ID) FROM SEASON WHERE BEGINDATE < GETDATE())

SELECT
1 AS ORDERBY,
ID,
NAME,
BEGINDATE
FROM SEASON
WHERE ID = @IDACTIVE

UNION

SELECT
2 AS ORDERBY,
ID,
NAME,
BEGINDATE
FROM SEASON
WHERE ID = @IDACTIVE

A: First move all future dates to the end, then order by beginDate
SELECT *
FROM season
ORDER BY CASE WHEN beginDate > GETDATE() THEN 0 ELSE 1 END,
   beginDate

A: Follow the next approach:
1) Get The only matched row by using Top and Where clauses.
2) Get the all records except the one that you getting on point #1
3) Combine the result of two Selects via using UNION ALL.
Demo:-
Create table season (id int , NAME varchar(20),BEGINDATE date)

go
insert into season values (1,'2014-2015','2014-10-01')
insert into season values (2,'2015-2016','2015-10-01')
insert into season values (3,'2016-2017','2016-10-01')
insert into season values (4,'2017-2018','2017-10-01')

go

select  * from (
    select top 1 * from season
    where BEGINDATE < getdate()
    order by BEGINDATE desc
) a

union all

select * from season
where BEGINDATE != (
            select top 1 BEGINDATE from season
            where BEGINDATE < getdate()
            order by BEGINDATE desc)

-- an another Soluation

select * from season
where DATEPART(Year,BEGINDATE) =DATEPART(Year,getdate())

union all

select * from season
where DATEPART(Year,BEGINDATE) !=DATEPART(Year,getdate())

The Result:

A: I think this is most easily done using window functions:
select s.*
from season s
order by (case when begindate = max(case when getdate() >= begindate then begindate end) over ()
               then 1 else 2
          end),
         id


Yor'sahj the Unsleeping is a minor antagonist of the online game World of Warcraft.
Shortly after the demise of the Twilight's Hammer Cult master, Cho'gall, Yor'sahj fled the Bastion of Twilight and agreed with Deathwing to assist him in the war.
During the Siege of Wyrmrest Temple, soon after the demises of Morchok and Zon'ozz, the heroes and adventurers made their way into the stomach of the colossal Forgotten One, Shu'ma. There, they met Yor'sahj, who sent his ooze-based minions to attack. After they were defeated, Yor'sahj had no choice but the join the battle himself. He empowered himself through the use of the giant oozes that Shu'ma produced, giving him new powers and allowing him to summon entire armies of Faceless Ones. Despite all of this, Yor'sahj was killed in battle and the heroes departed Shu'ma's stomach to assist the Dragon Aspects at the top of the temple.

Last summer, at the W17 EHF Championship, the Netherlands were a force to be reckoned with, conceding only 70 goals in six matches, proving to be a team that would have fit right in at the W17 EHF EURO.
Winning the competition meant that the Dutch side sealed their place at the next IHF Women's Youth (U18) World Championship, for which they qualified for the sixth time, having never finished outside of the top 10 in the previous five editions they played in.
Facing two other European teams – Romania and Slovenia – and Guinea, the Dutch side will be favoured to progress to the next phase of the competition but will have to prove their mettle against stronger sides than the Faroe Islands or Serbia, against whom they won in the knock-out phase at the W17 EHF Championship 2021.
Their top scorer from last summer, centre back Jalisha Loy, made the step up to the junior team and won the bronze medal at Slovenia 2022 last month – yet, a strong back line was one of the Netherlands' strong points in the past years at every level. Players like Lieke Jongejan or Elisa Marsman can slot right in, with the Netherlands definitely aiming to preserve their streak of finishing among the top 10 teams in the competition.
Key players: Alieke van Maurik (right back), Elisa Marsman (centre back), Lieke Jongejan (centre back)

This week we're representing the ethnic minorities and doing "South African whites." Perhaps it's ironic that although the Boers of South Africa were for so long intolerant, a word rarely used to describe their bottled counterparts is "intolerable." Nicely done, huh?
White wine in South Africa was generally regarded with more praise than reds (although in recent years the reds have been gaining a lot of respect). The top grape was traditionally Chenin Blanc, a varietal that we'll recognize from our trip to the Loire. It's also interesting to note that before the rise in popularity of Chardonnay during the 70s, Chenin Blanc was the most widely-planted white grape in California. It's got a long history in South Africa and hopefully we'll have a few of those to taste. Several other South African whites are worth tasting, notably Chardonnay and apparently some good Sauvignon Blanc as well. Riesling is also grown in small quantities. Most South African wines will say the grape type on the label, although not all of them… therefore, when buying your South African white, try to find one that does list the varietal on the bottle so we know what we're drinking.
Chill those whites and bring your best Dutch colonial accent. We'll see your bad asses on Tuesday night.

We won't fly poison jets
AIRLINE passengers' lives are at risk because pilots and crew are being poisoned by polluted cabin air, staff at a budget carrier claimed yesterday.
By Nick Fagge
PUBLISHED: 00:00, Mon, Oct 22, 2007
FLIGHTS OF FEAR: A Flybe jet
Cabin crew from the British Flybe carrier say they are now boycotting the firm's 146 fleet following two dangerous incidents this year.
The 13 British Aerospace jets are used mainly on UK domestic flights.
It was reported that two stewardesses collapsed after becoming overcome by fumes and seven crew members were rushed to hospital on landing following a trip from Birmingham to Belfast in July.
And on the same route in February, crew had to don oxygen masks and abort a flight 15 minutes after take-off.
One flight attendant told the BBC radio station Five Live: "I will not get back on the 146 again. I'm angry that my health has been put at risk."
Passengers' lives are at risk
Former Flybe pilot John Hoyte
And a pilot said that if he was asked to fly the 146 again he would tell the company to "go take a walk". The report said 10 leaks of contaminated cabin air had been uncovered in the past 15 months.
Campaigners claim the air, which is bled from the aircraft's engines and then cooled before entering the cabin, can often be polluted with engine oil.
Employees could be suffering damage to their health because of long-term exposure to these toxins.
Former Flybe pilot John Hoyte, of the Aerotoxic Alliance, said: "Passengers' lives are at risk because they are depending on us to be 100 per cent efficient – and we're no way near 100 per cent."
Last night a spokesman for the Exeter-based company, said: "Flybe is completely confident that its aircraft are operated and maintained to the highest industry standards.
"Flybe took a decision several years ago to reduce the number of aircraft types operated from three to two.
"As a result the 146 fleet will have been withdrawn by February 2008."
Last night a spokesman for British Aerospace, which makes the 110-seater jet, said: "Cabin air quality is an industry-wide issue which is not specific to the 146."

1655: Headless Horsemen
Posted on December 9, 2017 by corvusfugit
In the turmoil of the English Civil War (1642-1651), an engraving based on this portrait of King Charles I underwent a remarkable number of transformations. The original portrait was painted by Anthony van Dyck in 1633 (above). The French engraver Pierre Lombart then produced seven—possibly eight—versions of it during the tumultuous period in which the monarchy of England was toppled and then ultimately reinstated.
Charles was beheaded in 1649 after being put on trial by the revolutionary Roundheads; England's monarchical system of government was then replaced with, first, the Commonwealth of England (1649–1653) and then the Protectorate (1653-1659) under which Oliver Cromwell ruled as Lord Protector until he died of natural causes in 1658. His position was assumed by his son Richard until the Royalists returned to power in 1660. Cromwell's corpse was exhumed, hung in chains, and posthumously beheaded.
For his first engraving (1655) (not shown), Lombart simply reproduced van Dyck's portrait of the king but substituted the head of Cromwell, adding a battle in the background and a new inscription; he was paid twenty pounds (roughly $6,000 today). In 1658, after Cromwell had died, Lombart burnished out the head on the copper printing plate (above, left), and substituted the likeness of King Louis XIV of France; two versions of this print survive. Later, for the fifth version, Louis's head was scraped out and Cromwell's re-engraved (above, center). Still later, likely after Lombart's death, the head of Charles I returned (above, right)—and then, in the final version, Cromwell's was restored. The British Museum says that there may have been an earlier first state.

The Society of St Vincent de Paul was founded in Christchurch in July 1867 by Father Jean Baptiste Chataigner, a priest of the Society of Mary and parish priest of Christchurch at that time. It continued until April 1880 under the guidance of Father Chataigner and other early Marist priests including Fathers Boibeaux, Chervier, Ecuyer and Ginaty. Father Chataigner moved to Timaru in 1869 to become the first Parish Priest of that town, and founded a second conference there. While the Society in its early years was an organisation for men only, many of the situations faced required the work of women, so following a ruling from Pope Pius IX in 1859 women working in association with the Society could form groups of a Ladies Society of St Vincent de Paul. One such group was formed in Christchurch. While the Christchurch conference was never formally affiliated to the international organisation it operated in accord with the philosophy of the Society and can be regarded as the first in the country, with the Timaru one very likely being the second, although also not affiliated. In Wellington in May 1875 Father Jean-Baptiste Petitjean established a conference in Thorndon. This was the first conference to achieve affiliation. The following year engineer and Member of Parliament Charles Gordon O'Neill moved to Wellington from the South Island and became president of St Mary's Conference. It is possible he had been associated with the Christchurch conference as there is a C. O'Neill on the roll there, although at the time he lived in Otago. He was responsible for extending the Society elsewhere in New Zealand as he travelled about in connection with his engineering work. He eventually moved to Australia where he was responsible for re-establishing the Society there. Locally we have a small group of volunteers lead by Fred Dyer who help those in need in our community. Fred and his team give out/pick up furniture, give to local people in need, liaise with social services to name but a few of their tasks. Our parish school has a very active group of young Vinnies who raise money to help others. This group is lead by Paola Minehan and supported by Ngatel Tiuka. We are grateful that we have both groups active in our parish and thank them for the work we they do!

At CTL, we believe that a great physical environment contributes to a great learning environment. Our temporary facility is equipped to cater for the academic, social and physical needs of our students. However, we are happy to announce that we have the allocation for a 3.3 hectare (about eight acres) piece of land where we have already begun preliminary plans to build our permanent facility. Our permanent facility is purpose built to accommodate adequate learning and recreational facilities for our PreKindergarten through Twelfth Grade program, boarding facilities and staff housing.


Prior to studying theology, Tam worked as an Occupational Therapist in Sydney but is delighted to now spend her days talking about the great news of Jesus full time. Apart from the privilege of being on staff at Chapel, Tam thoroughly enjoys the Armidale 'tree change' and cannot imagine living in a major city again anytime in the near future!
When she's not working, you'll find Tam pottering around her garden, sewing, watching her latest TV series addiction on DVD or meeting with friends about town.
In a world that offers false hope and temporary happiness, Tam wholeheartedly believes that there is nowhere else we find true fulfilment but in Christ Jesus, who alone has the words of eternal life (John 6:68).
