Actual quote, from… I'm guessing… it's been a bit… I'll just say early 90s.
I am pretty sure I never even thought of taking a swing at my father, out of a healthy respect for the permanence of death. I never thought of taking a swing at my mother either, because my father taught me to respect his wife.
I am one of the lucky ones. When I was young, "deadbeat dads" and single-parent homes were not nearly as prevalent as they are today. There were some, of course. But most of the kids in the neighborhood had both parents at home.
Not all those parents were winners, sure. But at least they were present, and at least they seemed to be trying.
From a very young age, my brother and I would go with my Dad on his weekend errands (which almost always involved a stop at one or more of the local coin shops) or on long walks around the neighborhood. He would hide coins and gemstones and little odds and ends in various places along our usual routes, often in the bowl of a tree trunk where the thick branches separate and stretch to the sky. And we would check those trees — the ones we could easily reach, at least.
I wonder if that was a way of seeing just how much we were growing, or if it was just a silly game. Either way, that was part of our relationship for years.
My Dad also loves trains, and our walk would inevitably lead up the hill near our house to the train tracks that bordered the golf course. We would walk along the tracks (my brother and I trying to see how long we could stay balanced on a rail) until a train sounded its horn. Then we would plant a penny or nickel on the tracks and step off to the other side of the road to watch it go by.
Dad recognized all the names of all the railway companies, and he would always look for the uncommon emblems, like a kid with a pack of baseball cards hoping to find a rare star player. "Such-and-such Pacific… I'm surprised that made it all the way from California. And the old BS&P… and then there's the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe" (and he'd sing it as a little jingle, even though we'd never heard the commercial).
The train would pass, and we'd get back on the tracks or head down the hill, always looking out for those special trees along the way.
But we would walk and talk. That was alright. You could still do that with your Dad, and if anyone picked on you about it, it's probably because they don't have a Dad like yours to go walk and talk with.
Eventually, Saturday morning errands and weekend walks became a "take it or leave it" kind of thing for my brother and me. We had video games, or toys, or, you know, cool stuff to do.
I thought I was doing him a favor.
Looking back, I know I got the better deal. Hands down, by far, without a doubt.
I had a Dad who wanted to be with me, who liked me the way I was, who was interested in what interested me, and who was eager to share with me all the things that interested him.
Even back then, that was something special.
I never really thought too much about sleeping arrangements in our house. Essentially, I didn't have my own room for a long while. I would sleep on an air mattress, or on the floor in my brother's room. I slept on a spare bed for a few years, but I never really had a room that was mine to occupy (and trash).
One summer, probably just before or early on in high school, my Dad said we were going to build me a room. We went to a lumber yard and bought all kinds of 2x4s and some paneling sheets. And then my Dad laid out this plan and basically built this wall in the basement so that I had my own room. I would help him hold planks in place or hold up sheets so they could get nailed down, but really, the work was all his and the benefit was all mine.
And I never heard him complain about it. He wanted to do it.
I like to claim that I have no regrets, no "what ifs" that I would love to go back in time and change. But in my relationship with my Dad, I do have a few.
I remember how disappointed and hurt he seemed when he found out that my brother and I, wrestling and fighting, had put a huge hole in the fragile paneling of the wall he'd built to make me a room. I recall being really mad at my Dad during an argument on a different occasion, and just because I knew it might hurt him, I punched another hole in that wall while he was standing there watching.
And then there's the alcohol.
I like the occasional drink. I set a limit of one or two, and I rarely drink anywhere but home because I've seen how drinking can destroy careers and lives in the military.
My Dad has a very different opinion about alcohol, based on his experiences growing up with an alcoholic father. Dad hates alcohol so much that I recall him yelling at TV beer commercials for painting such a false image of the life you'll have when enjoying their products. He can't stand alcohol, not one bit.
Hint: Maturity is just like leadership or authority; if you have to remind people that you have it, you don't.
Seriously, as far as the offensive effect it has, I think drinking in front of my Dad is like saying the N word to an African-American, or making a Holocaust joke to a concentration camp survivor. My wife reminds me often that there are terms we can say which mean little for us, but bring up incredibly painful memories for others. Certainly actions can have the same disparate impact on different individuals.
And if I know that already, what kind of person do I have to be to intentionally push that shiny red button?
Yes, that's something I would go back and change.
I grew up healthy. I was educated at school and then those lessons were reemphasized at home by my Mom and Dad. I had my medical needs met. I had more than plenty of material possessions. More importantly by far, I not once ever had to doubt whether my parents loved me or cared about me.
When we conduct evaluations in the Air Force, part of the brief that we are required to give the examinee is to not let a mistake become a distraction. It's easy to spot when we screw up, and it's easy to get caught up in all the reasons why we screwed up, and how we could have done better, and what we shouldn't have done, and so on. Examinees sometimes do this. They know they said something wrong or did something stupid, and it becomes a fixation that causes more mistakes.
I wonder sometimes if my Dad's assessment that he'd "messed up a lot" is something similar. When I evaluate my life and think about the influence he's had on me, I am so grateful to have had such a father.
This Father's Day, I wanted to give my Dad some of the attention and praise he is due.
If you have an awesome Dad, I'd love to hear about it. Please comment and tell me (and anyone else reading) a little more about what a great Dad looks like. If your father is no longer with us, I'd still love to hear about what made him special.
And maybe you unfortunately didn't have a father around. Sometimes, single moms or extended family or step-parents come in to fill that critical role in a life, and they're just as worthy of praise. If you have someone who chose to be a father to you (yes, single moms included) and you'd like to share, please do.

The notion of optimality of biological structures is both quite popular as a type of explanation and highly criticized by many scientists. It is worth understanding why exactly.
In a previous post, I observed that there are different types of explanations, one of which is final cause. Final cause would be for example the minimization of energy in physics or survival and reproduction in biology. Evolutionary theory makes final causes very important in biology. However, I find that such explanations are often rather weak. Such explanations generally take the form: we observe such biological structure because it is optimal in some sense. What exactly is explained or meant here is not always so clear. That a biological structure is optimal means that we consider a set of possible structures, and among that set the observed structure maximizes some criterion. But what is this set of possible structures? Surely not all possible molecular structures. Indeed evolutionary theory does not say that biological organisms are optimal. It says that changes in structure that occur from one generation to the next tend to increase "adaptability" of the organism (there are variations around this theme, such as gene-centered theories). Evolution is a process and biological organisms result from an evolutionary history: they are not absolute optima among all possible molecular structures (otherwise there would not be many species).
To see this, consider the following analogy. From the postulate that people tend to maximize their own interest, I propose the following explanation of social structure: rich people are rich because they want to be rich. Why is this explanation not satisfying? Because both poor and rich people tend to maximize their own interest (by assumption), and yet only the latter are rich. The problem is that we have specified a process that has a particular trend (increasing self interest), but there is no necessity that this process reaches a general optimal of some sort. It is only optimal within a particular individual history. Maybe the poor people have always acted in their own interest, and maybe they are richer than they would be otherwise, but that doesn't mean they end up rich. In the same way, evolution is a process and it only predicts an optimum within a particular evolutionary history.
Thus, the first remark is that optimality must be understood in the context of a process, both phylogenetic (species history) and ontogenetic (development), not as a global property. Optimality can only be local with respect to that process – after all, there are many species, not a single "optimal" one. That is to say, the fitness criterion (which has to defined more precisely, see below) tends to increase along the process, so that, at equilibrium (assuming there is such a thing – see the theory of punctuated equilibria), the criterion is locally maximized with respect to that process (i.e., cannot increase by the process).
This is the first qualification. There are at least two other types of criticisms that have been raised, which I want to address now, one empirical and one theoretical. The empirical criticism is that biological organisms are not always optimal. The theoretical criticism is that biological organisms do not need to be optimal but only "good enough", and there might be no evolutionary pressure when organisms are good enough.
I will first address the empirical criticism: biological organisms are not always optimal. First, they are not expected to be, because of the above qualification. But this is not the deep point. This criticism raises the problem of specification: optimal with respect to what? The Darwinian argument only specifies (local) optimality with respect to survival and reproduction. But optimality is generally discussed with respect to some particular aspect of structure or behavior. The problem is that it is generally not obvious at all how the evolutionary fitness criterion should translate to in terms of structure. This is the problem of specification.
For example, I have heard the argument that "people are not optimal". I take it that it is meant that people are not rational. This is indeed a very well established fact of human psychology. If you haven't read it yet, I invite you to read "Thinking, fast and slow" by Daniel Kahneman. There are all sorts of cognitive biases that make us humans not very rational in general. To give you a random example, take the "planning fallacy": if you try to plan the duration of a substantial project (say, building a house or writing a book), then you will almost always underestimate it by an order of magnitude. The reason is that when planning, you imagine a series of steps that are necessary to achieve the project but you don't imagine all the possible accidents that might happen (say the contractor dies). Any specific accident is very unlikely so you don't or can't think about it, but it is very likely that one accident of this type happens, and so you seriously underestimate the completion time. Annoyingly, you still do if you know about the fallacy (at least I still do). This is the problem of epistemic uncertainty (events that are not part of your probabilistic model, as opposed to probabilistic uncertainty, as in rolling a die – see e.g. the Black Swan by Taleb). So humans are not optimal with respect to the rationality criterion. Why is that? Perhaps rationality does not give you an evolutionary advantage. Or perhaps it would by itself, but it would also come with a very large cost in terms of maintaining the adequate structure. Or perhaps it would require such a different brain structure from what humans currently have that no evolutionary step could possibly take us there. Or perhaps it is just impossible to be rational, because the problem of epistemic uncertainty is so fundamental. I am not trying to give an answer, but simply pointing out that the evolutionary argument does not imply that structure and behavior should be optimal with respect to all criteria that seem desirable. Evolutionary "fitness" is a complex notion that encompasses a set of contradicting subcriteria and history effects.
With this important qualification in mind, it should be noted that there are many aspects of biological structure and behavior that have been shown quite convincingly to be optimal or near-optimal with respect to appropriately chosen criteria. It would be sad to discard them, because those explanations give parsimonious accounts of large sets of empirical data. For example, while people are generally not rational or consistent in their reasoning and decisions, when it comes to perceptual or motor tasks it is well documented that humans tend to be near optimal, as accounted by the Bayesian framework. There are of course important qualifications, but it is the case that many aspects of perception are well predicted by the Bayesian framework, at a quantitative (not just qualitative) level (note that I don't mean perception in the phenomenological sense, but simply in the sense of sensory-related tasks). One big difference with the preceding example is that there is no epistemic uncertainty in these tasks; that is, when perceptual systems have a good statistical model of reality, then they seem to use it in a Bayesian-optimal way.
There are also convincing cases of optimality for biological structures. Robert Rosen discusses some of them in his book "Optimality principles in biology", in particular the structure of the vascular system (which also seems to apply to lungs). Many geometrical aspects of the vascular system, such as angle and diameter at branching points and even the number of blood vessels can be accounted for by optimality principles with respect to appropriately chosen (but importantly, simple) criteria. This latter point is critical, as is pointed out in that book. Two criteria are simultaneously considered in this case: maximizing the surface of contact and minimizing the resistance to flow (and thus the required energy).
Another well documented case, this time in neurophysiology, is in the geometrical and molecular properties of axons. There is a short paper by Hodgkin that in my opinion shows pretty good optimality reasoning, including some of the qualifications I have mentioned: "The Optimum Density of Sodium Channels in an Unmyelinated Nerve" (1975). He starts by noting that the giant squid axon mediates the escape reflex, and it is critical for survival that this reflex is fast. Therefore speed of conduction along the axon is a good candidate for an optimality analysis: it makes sense, from an evolutionary viewpoint, that the structure of the axon is optimized for speed. Then he tries to predict the density of sodium channels that would maximize speed. As it turns out, this simple question is itself quite complex. He argues that each channel also increases the membrane capacitance, in a way that depends on voltage because the geometrical conformation of the channels is voltage-dependent. Nonetheless he manages to estimate that effect and derives an optimal channel density, which turns out to be of the right order of magnitude (compared with measurements). He also notes that the relation between channel density and velocity has a "flat maximum", so the exact value might also depend on other aspects than conduction speed.
He then discusses those other aspects at the end of the text. He notes that in other cases (different axons and species), the prediction based on speed does not work so well. His argument then is that speed may simply not be the main relevant criterion in those other cases. It was in the case of the squid axon because it mediates a time-critical escape reflex, but in other cases speed may not be so important and instead energy consumption might be more relevant. Because the squid axon mediates an escape reflex, it very rarely spikes and so energy consumption is presumably not a big issue – compared to being eaten alive because you are too slow. But energy consumption might be a more important criterion for axons that fire more often (say, cortical neurons in mammals). There is indeed a large body of evidence that tends to show that many properties of spike initiation and propagation are adapted for energy efficiency (again, with some qualifications, e.g. fast spiking cells are thought to be less efficient because it seems necessary to fire at high firing rates). There are other structures where axon properties seem to be tuned for isochrony, yet another type of criterion. Isochrony means that spikes produced by different neurons arrive at the same time at a common projection. This seems to be the case in the optic tract (Stanford 1987, "Conduction Velocity Variations Minimizes Conduction Time Differences Among Retinal Ganglion Cell Axons") and many other structures, for example the binaural system of birds. Thus many aspects of axon structure seem to show a large degree of adaptation, but to a diversity of functional criteria, and it often involves trade-offs. This concludes this discussion of the problem of specification.
The second criticism is not empirical but theoretical: biological organisms do not need to be optimal but only "good enough", and there might be no evolutionary pressure when organisms are good enough. There is an important sense in which this is true. This is highlighted by Hodgkin in the paper I mentioned: there is a broad range of values for channel density that leads to near-optimal ("good enough") velocities, and so the exact value might depend on other, less important, criteria, such as energy consumption. But note that this reasoning is still about optimality; simply, it is acknowledged that organisms are not expected to be optimal with respect to any single criterion, since survival depends on many aspects. A related point is that of robustness and redundancy. It appears that there is a lot of redundancy in biological systems. You could lose a kidney and still be fine, and this is also true at cellular level. This again can be thought of in terms of epistemic uncertainty: you could build something that is optimal with respect to a particular model of the world, but it might make that something very fragile to unexpected perturbations, events that are not predicted by the model. Thus redundancy or more generally robustness is desirable, even though it makes organisms suboptimal with respect to any specific model.
But note that we have not left the framework of evolutionary fitness, since we have described redundancy as a desirable feature (as opposed to a random feature). We have simply refined the concept of optimality, which it should be clear now is quite complex, as it must be understood with respect to a constellation of possibly contradictory subcriteria as well as with respect to epistemic uncertainty. But we are still making all those qualifications within the framework of adaptive fitness of organisms. This does not mean that biological organisms can be suboptimal because of lack of strong evolutionary pressure. More precisely, it means that they can be suboptimal with respect to a particular criterion for which there is a lack of strong evolutionary pressure, if the same structure is also subjected to evolutionary pressure on another criterion. These two criteria could be for example conduction speed and energy consumption.
Yet it could be (and has been) argued that even if a structure were subjected to a single criterion, it might still not be optimal with respect to that criterion if evolutionary pressure is weak. For example, it is often stated that spikes of the squid giant axon are not efficient, as in the Hodgkin-Huxley model they are about 3-4 times more energetically expensive than strictly necessary. Because those axons fire very rarely, it makes little difference whether spikes are efficient or not. Considering this fact, spike efficiency is "good enough".
I find this theoretical argument quite weak. First, let me note that the 3-4 factor applies to the Hodgkin-Huxley model, which was calibrated mainly for action potential shape, but since then it has been refined and the factor is actually smaller (see e.g. work by Benzanilla). But it's not the important point. From a theoretical viewpoint, even if evolutionary pressure is weak, it is not inexistent. By a simple argument I exposed before, biological organisms must live in environments where resources are scarce, and so there is strong pressure for efficient use of energy and resources in general. Thus even if the giant axon's spike is a small proportion of that use, there is still some pressure on its efficiency. Squids are a very old species and there seems to be no reason why that pressure might not have applied at some point. But again this is not the most important point. In my view, the most important point is that evolutionary pressure does not apply at the level of individual elements of structure (e.g., on each axon). It applies at the level of genes, which have impact on the entire organism, or at least a large part of it. So the question is not whether the giant squid axon is energy efficient, but rather whether spike conduction along axons is efficient. It is also quite possible that mechanisms related to metabolism are more generic. Thus, while there might be little evolutionary pressure on that particular axon, there certainly is on the set of all axons.
Why then is the squid giant axon inefficient? (I'm assuming it actually is, although to a lesser degree than usually stated) Here is a possible explanation. Efficiency of spike propagation and initiation depends on the properties of ionic channels. In particular, to have spikes that are both fast and efficient you need sodium channels to inactivate very fast. There is likely a limit to how fast it can be, since proteins are discrete structures (which might explain that fast spiking cortical neurons are relatively inefficient). In mammals, fast inactivation is conveyed not by the main protein of the sodium channel (alpha subunit) but by so called beta subunits, which are distinct proteins that modulate channel properties. This comes with a cost, since all those proteins need to be actively maintained (the resting cost). If the neuron spikes often, most of the energetic cost is incurred by spikes. If it spikes very rarely, most of the energetic cost is the resting cost. When that resting cost is taken into account, it might well be that spikes in the squid giant axon is actually quite efficient. The same line of reasoning might explain why such a big axon is not myelinated (or doesn't show a similar kind of adaptation): myelination decreases the energetic cost of spike propagation for large diameter axons, but it increases the resting cost (you need glial cells producing myelin).
To conclude: optimality principles are important in biology because these are principles that are specific of living organisms (i.e., they are somehow adapted) and they do explain a large body of empirical data. However, these must be applied with care, keeping in mind the problem of specification (optimality with respect to what; i.e. what is actually important for survival), the problem of history effects (optimality is local relative to phylogenetic and ontogenetic processes) and the problem of epistemic uncertainty (leading to robustness principles).
Update: I noticed that in Hodgkin's "Sherrington Lectures" (1964), the author estimates that mean firing frequency of the giant axon in the life of a squid does not exceed a few impulses per minute, which should produce an amount of sodium intake due to spikes of about 1/300 the amount without spike (leak). Thus the cost of spikes is indeed a negligible proportion of the total cost of axon maintenance.

India Could Suffer a Whitewash After Adelaide Result: Ponting
The second Test starts on December 26 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Published: 21 Dec 2020, 9:17 AM IST
India could suffer a whitewash in their ongoing Test series against Australia after their stunning eight-wicket defeat in the first Test in Adelaide, according to former Australia captain Ricky Ponting.
It's Time to Ask Questions of Shastri, Kohli, Arun and Sridhar
"There could be a good chance (of a sweep). Let's hope we do get a result in Melbourne and if we do, I think India are going to find it really hard to bounce back and win a game," Ponting told cricket.com.au.
India were blown away for 36 runs in the second innings -- their lowest ever total in Test cricket and the joint fourth lowest score in 2,396 Test matches played over 143 years. They eventually lost the match by eight wickets and Ponting said that with captain Virat Kohli also not available for the rest of the series, there is no one to pick up the visitors' spirits after that bruising defeat.
'One of The Darkest Chapters in India's Test Cricket History'
"With Kohli not being there as well there's almost no-one to pick them back up after a loss like that. They've got to make a couple of changes. Rishabh Pant has to be in that middle order. With Kohli not being there they've got to strengthen their batting, he's got to come in," Ponting said.
"I am sure but there's one thing to make selection changes there's another to lift the spirits back up again and make sure they're mentally right for the next challenge because the Australians are not going to go away now," he added.

FAQs on Jordan
What is the currency of Jordan?
Notes are in denominations of JD 50, 20, 10, 5 and 1. Coins are in denominations of JD 1, 1/2 and 1/4; 10, 5, 2 and 1/2 piastres; and 1 and 1/2 qirsh. The dinar is also known as the Leerah in the local language. All foreign currencies can easily be exchanged in Jordan.
What is the history of Jordan?
Jordan has a very interesting history. Before the 20th century, Jordan was seen as part of the Syrian region. It is one of those places where the Stone-Age hunters gathered and settled for the first time. During the Iron Age, Jordan fought against Israel, Syria, Babylon and Persia before finally being occupied by the Greek. In 106 AD the Romans absorbed the Nabatean kingdom, building new roads across Jordan, beautifying cities and fortifying the desert frontier. After the Ottoman Turks were defeated during the Great Arab Revolt of 1916-17, Jordan won independence, first as a British colony in 1923 under Abdullah I and then in 1946 as an independent kingdom.
What is unique about culture of Jordan?
Islam is the majority religion in Jordan with over 92% Sunni Muslim, about 2% Shi'a and Druze Muslim population along with a Greek Orthodox Christian minority of 6% of the population. The official language is Arabic. Other languages spoken include English, French, ItalianÊGerman,Êand Spanish. The culture in Jordan does not impose Islam on the residents. The people are open-minded and tolerant of other religions. They are generally very helpful and act as great hosts and guides since Hospitality is a very important part of their culture.
How is Jordan divided into regions?
Jordan is divided into four regions: Northern Jordan, King's Highway, Eastern Desert and Southern Desert. As the names suggest, Northern Jordan marks the Northern region of the country and Eastern and Southern Desert regions mark the respective regions of the Wadi Rum. King's Highway is the region that extends from Madaba to Petra. It has been named so after an ancient trade route that followed the same path.

First thing's first: I was meaning to run this route on Saturday, and kind of psyched myself out for some reason. I got myself thinking that 10 miles was a long way. Not that its a short jaunt by any means, but it isnt anything daunting. I figured I'd put it on hold and run Today, Sunday morning, so thats what I did. Actually, I wasnt planning it this way at all, but I was listening to Fdip 93, Steve's running of the 11th Boston Marathon on Saturday night. Steve was running through more or less a monsoon, and I was thinking to myself "Why are you such a whiny baby? 10 miles is just 4 more than 6, and you do six real easy." Its amazing how you can trick yourself like that.


We have a new question in the clinic from Simon, probably very relevant for a lot of people so check it out to see if there might be any advice you would want to follow.
Off to Antalya in Turkey next Tuesday. I am really looking forward to it as it's a new area that I've never been to and I'm sick of the sight of rain!
I have been managing to get to the wall and work on my endurance after the xmas break, so I should be able to have a fun trip on the sun kissed rock. The weather looks good out there, 15` degrees during the day, sounds kind of perfect.
Just hoping our plane doesn't decide to do a belly flop a la BA at Heathrow!
Played 5-a-side footie on Monday in Manchester, it was good fun- if I actually had any football skills I'd be amazing. I'm quick and can get to places on the pitch but if I get the ball I can't do anything with it, kind of frustrating! That's the trouble with being a girl, we don't get taught how to play and practice (well not when I was at school many moons ago), so the skills need some work.
Annoyingly and fairly predictably I retore my hamstring that I originally ruptured last July doing a heel hook down the 'works'. It happened at the end when I was warmed up and not quite sure how it occurred but I've been manically icing, heating, tiger balm-ing, a bit of ibuprofen and some gentle stretching. It seems to be improving so all good. Might play on Monday (prob a bit silly but I can't resist a good run round) and hope I don't do any serious damage for Turkey.


The Spring 2019 STEM Conference filled the fifth floor of the Natural Science Center at GSU with energetic students showcasing research projects and interests on a diverse array of topics including impacts of hurricanes in the Caribbean, development of an application to match optimize marketing, microbial communities of soil, and 3-D modeling of interactions between herbicide and plant proteins. Over two hundred fifty student presenters participated in the event. Among them, undergraduate researchers in the Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) Initiative highlighted gains in collaboration, leadership, professionalism, and career management competencies through a reflective component on the poster. Each semester, the Office of STEM Education Initiatives and the Undergraduate STEM Research Society co-host this event as a supportive environment to connect the technical skills of STEM research with the soft skills essential to today's work place.
The Office STEM Initiatives invites undergraduates to present posters showcasing research or research ideas at the 2019 Fall STEM Conference TBD.
This event will be attended by faculty and students who come to learn about your work, provide feedback, and help you develop professionally. We welcome poster presentations not only from current research projects but also posters that describe a research project you would like to pursue here at Georgia State. Feel free to adapt this PowerPoint poster template we made to make your participation even easier. (see note below for more on formatting your poster) Join us on March 29th for an opportunity to (1) network, (2) gain self-confidence, and (3) become an active participant in the scientific process!
There is no cost to attend or present. Complete the registration form (TBD).
For more information, contact the Undergraduate STEM Research Society (usrsgsu@gmail.com).
Do I have to use the template you've provided on the website? I've heard that I can present 12 slides, but the template you provide is only 4 slides. Is this a problem? What format is required? Do I have to use PowerPoint? Why should I use PowerPoint if this is a poster? Isn't PowerPoint for oral presentations?
The template represents one way to structure your poster. The suggestion that you prepare 12 powerpoint slides is an alternative. You can use whatever form you desire – we simply provide resources that you could consider using if you desire. Do not worry about templates but rather focus on (1) content and (2) pleasing design/display. This is an informal opportunity to get feedback and network with others in the STEM departments here at GSU.
Posters are often prepared in PowerPoint because PowerPoint allows easy movement of text boxes, images, and figures. PowerPoint is not the only software tool available, but it is the most frequently used. There are several ways to use PowerPoint to create a printed poster. At scientific conferences, a poster consists of a single slide (generally a PowerPoint slide that is 48" by 36" in size) that is printed on a very large printer. These are quite costly to print, so we are suggesting that conference attenders take a different approach in which you develop multiple slides in PowerPoint at a normal size and print out each slide as a single page. These then can be individually pinned to a board in the hallway in NSC.
How many pages/slides do you need? It really depends on how much information you want and how much information you need to show. Dr. Dixon suggests using a series of 12 printed slides on regular paper. Dr. Ulrich posted the shorter template that you've seen online. After making each "slide", you print them out and arrange them on the board as desired.

Microsoft plans to release new paid fonts for Windows 10
Microsoft is working on the next version of Windows codenamed Redstone 4, arriving in April as Windows 10 Spring Creators Update. We've known for a while that Windows 10 Redstone 4 update will kill off some settings in the Control Panel and move them to the Settings app. Starting with Windows 10 Redstone 4 release, Fonts section will be moved to Settings app from the classic Control Panel.
While the Store was originally the home of apps and games just like Google Play Store, the software giant recently published the fonts in the Microsoft Store for Windows 10 devices as part of its effort to make the store a marketplace for apps, games, hardware and font. It looks like Microsoft is preparing to make another important step in this regard.
Today, we have discovered that Microsoft is planning to sell premium fonts in the Windows 10 Store. Buxton Sketch, a new font, for $1.99 is now available from the Microsoft Store.
The company describes Buxton Sketch as a casual print style handwriting font, this font supports Latin, Cyrillic and Greek in Windows 10 operating system, along with support for 590 characters designed for Microsoft services.
Image Courtesy: Microsoft.com
Windows 10's new Settings app comes with all options currently available in Control Panel, for example, it allows you to manage new fonts, uninstall and preview the fonts. Furthermore, the new Font Management can be also used for getting information for each font, like name and version.
In the Microsoft Store, the font is displayed like a regular Windows 10 UWP app, with screenshots, compatible devices list and description. It's worth noting that the new Windows 10 Font is not available for Windows Phone, apparently because the platform has been discontinued.
The Font is only said to be working with PCs, HoloLens, and Surface Hub. You can learn more about the new paid Buxton Sketch font at the Microsoft Store page.

When starting her Quarter Horse breeding operation in Madisonville, Texas, Dean Quarter Horses' Meagan Dean made sure her new business had a presence on social media as soon as it opened.
Launched in January of 2014, Dean Quarter Horses now has more than 2,500 followers on Facebook with Dean using social media to not only market the foals she has for sale but also connect with potential clients. She sat down with Pyrois Media to explain why social media is important and give us a look into how it factors into her business plans.
How many horses does Dean Quarter Horses have at any given time?
This varies based on the time of year. I've had as few as 5 horses on the property (our five broodmares) and one year I had as many as 19. Ages vary as well. Some years I'll have mares bred with foals at their sides, yearlings, a couple of 2-year-olds at trainers' being started, and even a couple older horses.
How did you discover social media?
I was one of the lucky ones who grew up during a time when social media was just coming around. I remember having a MySpace page when I was an angsty teen and when Facebook became more popular, I made a Facebook account. Eventually I started following the pages of farms and stallions that I really liked, and things kind of grew from there. When I first joined social media, I never anticipated it to be as big of an influence in my marketing plans as it is today but I've met many great people who I consider close friends through social media and it helps me to keep up-to-date on the latest happenings in the equine industry.
Can you give an example of what you'd post over a week on your page?
Truthfully I tend to have a little lax schedule for content each week as I like to adapt scheduled content in case an update comes in about a mare's offspring or if something exciting happens at the farm. I try to give our social media followers a bit of a behind-the-scenes look at what goes on so that they get a feel of who we are and know what kind of personalities the horses have before they meet them. Cute photos and videos, especially of the foals, are a big hit so I try to capture that type of content as much as I can. Of course, since broodmare are the core of the operation I like to occasionally give updates so our followers know how they are progressing in their pregnancy or just simply to let them know how the girls are doing.
Around the time of the year that the yearling sales are going on, particularly NSBA World in August and Congress in October, I tend to have a more planned out content schedule for social media. I stage out announcements that a yearling has been consigned, their official photos and videos are available, and I make sure to share any information about the sales, especially if one of my yearlings is showcased. Since there are a lot of great prospects in these sales, I want to make sure that my horses don't get lost in the catalog.
One thing I will admit is that I LOVE sharing equine-related memes. I've found memes are a great way to get engagement and engagement means more people are seeing your name out there. I think a lot of horse owners can relate to many of the things we share even if they are not a part of the western pleasure scene.
Dean finds that memes are popular and allow her to connect with more potential followers.
How does social media factor into your marketing plans and what advantages have you seen?
For me, it's a no brainer that social media be considered a necessity in Dean Quarter Horses' marketing plan. I live in an area with a very small western pleasure community and therefore trying to sell a western pleasure/all-around prospect locally can be very hit or miss. However, with social media I feel like I can more effectively reach those individuals from other areas of the country in order to let them know what I have for sale, what foals I am expecting and even how the progeny of my mares are performing in the show pen. In fact a lot of Dean Quarter Horses' sales have resulted from the buyer seeing a photo or video of one of our prospects through our Facebook page!
Do you use more traditional marketing, such as ads in magazines? How does it help you vs traditional marketing if so?
My business is still young, so I've yet to really tap into more traditional marketing methods such as magazine advertisements. In our industry you will see stallions being advertised more often but since I only have broodmares, I tend to leave the stallion side of the equation up to those who are more experienced. However, having strong broodmares in a breeding program is a necessity and I've toyed with the idea of creating some advertisements that showcase our broodmares— especially around the time that they are due.
Why do you feel social media is important for your business?
It's FREE. Sure you can "pay to play" but exposure through social media whether it's through your own personal profile or a business page is basically free advertisement. Particularly for small businesses or those just starting up, free advertisement can really help keep those startup costs down!
Why do you think social media is important for any equine business no matter the size?
I feel that it's very important for any equine business to have two things: a website and social media accounts. A website instantly gives a business credibility and social media develops a repertoire with followers. Additionally social media is a great way to get information out to clients quickly about new products debuting, important updates and more.
What advice would you give to someone thinking about starting social media accounts for their business?
Be aware of your industry or discipline on social media. Is there a particular industry-specific hashtag currently trending on Instagram or Twitter? Are you finding a particular type of content is generating more interest? What are some of your competitors doing on social media? Many times I'll see a post on Facebook or Instagram that really sticks out to me and it gives me a ton of ideas for future posts!
Facebook videos also play a big part in Dean Quarter Horses' social media marketing.
What other social media platforms do you use and why?
In addition to Facebook, Instagram is the second most-used platform for Dean Quarter Horses. Our main following is on Facebook simply because that's the platform I've noticed the pleasure horse industry audience mainly uses, but our Instagram is growing by leaps and bounds! Instagram allows for a very different kind of experience. I like to consider it to be more of an artistic approach to advertising and I try to snap photographs that are more unique and creative because they tend to result in a greater engagement.
Don't be afraid to get creative when it comes to social media content. You never know when you might develop the latest trend or have a post/image go viral.


When a film is hyped up and wins as many awards as The Kings Speech (2010) it usually turns out to be some what of a disappointment, for example Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire I could never understand what the fuss was about, a mediocre offering at best. But I must admit that the Tom Hooper directed film is in a class of its own. Its premise is simple; it's about a man who's given a job of work to do and is ill-equipped to carry it out! After the death of his father George V in 1936 and the abdication of his brother Edward V111 who expressed a desire to marry the American double divorcee Mrs Wallis Simpson, Albert Duke of York, known as Bertie to his family, reluctantly became King George V1. During this period in history was the advent of what we know now as mass media in fact George V was the first monarch to address his "subjects" via the radio and there lies the problem. Bertie was incapable of giving any kind of speech without badly stammering and with the outbreak of war looming the new King, along with his wife Elizabeth, would be required to become figureheads with a need to regularly address the nation. Various speech therapists were tried without success until Elizabeth approaches an unorthodox Australian therapist called Lionel Logue, the rest is history.
Unless you have been living on Mars you will be aware that The Kings Speech was nominated for 14 and won 7 British Academy Film Awards, three of which were well deserved acting awards. Colin Firth, for the second year running, won Leading Actor for his brilliant portrayal of a King coping with a serious disability, Geoffrey Rush, who dominates ever scene he's in, for the role as Logue and Helena Bonham Carter splendid as Bertie's wife Elizabeth. There is no doubt that the strength of this movie is in the acting, the best of which involves the interactions between Firth and Rush. This successful British film will hopefully do very well at the upcoming Oscars and more importantly has put bums on seats at the RBC cinema well into May!

Q: Can i filter subarray in Elasticsearch? I have orders and order products attached for each order as subarray in Elastic Search. When i'm aggregating Prices i need possibility to filter my order products in my documents of orders.
Example of my document in Elastic:
{
   "OrderID":4567488,
   "projectId":"4",
   "Project":"direkt",
   "legacy_id":null,
   "supporterId":null,
   "Origin":"FR",
   "orderProducts":[
      {
         "OrderProductID":"15694898",
         "OrderID":"4567488",
         "brandNo":"30",
         "Price":"26.95",
      },
      {
         "OrderProductID":"15694898",
         "OrderID":"4567488",
         "brandNo":"15",
         "Price":"15.22",
      },
       {
         "OrderProductID":"15694898",
         "OrderID":"4567488",
         "brandNo":"123",
         "Price":"24.55",
      },
   ]
}

How im filter right now:
 {
      "index":"order_index",
      "from":0,
      "size":100,
      "body":{
         "query":{
            "filtered":{
               "filter":{
                  "bool":{
                     "must":[
                        {
                           "term":{
                              "orderProducts.brandNo":"30"
                           }
                        }
                     ],
                  }
               }
            }
         }
      }
   }

What i'm expecting
{
   "OrderID":4567488,
   "projectId":"4",
   "Project":"direkt",
   "legacy_id":null,
   "supporterId":null,
   "Origin":"FR",
   "orderProducts":[
      {
         "OrderProductID":"15694898",
         "OrderID":"4567488",
         "brandNo":"30",
         "Price":"26.95",
      },
   ]
}

What i'm really getting:
All document.
That is possible? To filter subarray data?
UPD.
Yes this is my schema mappings:
"mappings":{
   "order":{
      "dynamic_templates":[
         {
            "strings":{
               "mapping":{
                  "type":"string",
                  "fields":{
                     "raw":{
                        "index":"not_analyzed",
                        "type":"string"
                     }
                  }
               },
               "match_mapping_type":"string"
            }
         }
      ],
      "properties":{
         "orderProducts":{
            "include_in_parent":true,
            "properties":{
               "OrderProductID":{
                  "type":"long"
               },
               "OrderID":{
                  "type":"long"
               },
               "brandNo":{
                  "type":"long"
               },
               "Price":{
                  "type":"double"
               }

            },
            "type":"nested"
         },
         "OrderID":{
            "type":"long"
         }
      }
   }
},

A: All right, after some experiments i discovered that that aggregation can be done like this:
 {
   "aggs":{
      "sales":{
         "nested":{
            "path":"orderProducts"
         },
         "aggs":{
            "filtered_nestedobjects":{
               "filter":{
                  "bool":{
                     "must":[
                        {
                           "terms":{
                              "orderProducts.brandNo":[
                                 "30"
                              ]
                           }
                        }
                     ]
                  }
               },
               "aggs":{
                  "Quantity":{
                     "sum":{
                        "field":"orderProducts.Quantity"
                     }
                  }
               }
            }
         }
      }
   }
}

And the answer to main question can we filter subarray of elastic is yes. With the inner_hits only i did this.

Do Your Servers Have Advanced Enlightenment?
Businesses of all sizes are realising great benefits from virtualising their servers—saving money is always an easy decision! But server virtualisation also presents new challenges for small business specific to storage. Shared infrastructure is required to connect all resources and enable motion and mobility of applications.
Historically only larger enterprises could afford the combination of SAN storage and enterprise virtualisation software to fully utilise mobility and high availability (HA) features. Citrix XenServer is a virtualisation platform that includes all of the critical features needed to deploy server virtualisation. Drobo® provides sophisticated data protection with BeyondRAID™ technology in a package that is easy-to-use and affordable.
Businesses of all sizes are realising great benefits from virtualising their servers. Saving money is an easy decision, which has made deploying free versions of server virtualisation the most popular IT project these days, both for development and testing and in production. In addition to cost savings, virtualisation also offers great flexibility and availability benefits, which help IT managers maintain service levels for their business managers. These features, however, have not always been affordably priced in such a way that small businesses could use them in production.
Server virtualisation also presents a new challenge for small businesses specific to storage. Shared infrastructure is required to connect all resources and enable motion and mobility of applications. Without shared storage, IT managers cannot move VMs within and between physical servers and thus cannot use the power of virtualisation to automatically move applications in the event of an issue. Historically only larger enterprises could afford the combination of SAN storage and enterprise virtualisation software to fully utilise mobility and high availability (HA) features.
Affordable SAN and sever virtualisation solutions designed especially for SMBs. This combination makes for an architecture that enables tremendous flexibility. Business managers get the cost savings they needs, while IT managers can move applications as they wish without impacting user access or uptime. This is a lifesaver when it comes to maintenance—move a VM and application, perform maintenance, migrate back—and users never notice. This mobility can also be automated for a true HA solution and maximum uptime.
Citrix XenServer is a virtualisation platform that includes all of the critical features needed to implement server virtualisation. Scalable for any size business, the low-cost Advanced Edition provides key HA and advanced management tools that take virtual infrastructure to the next level. Advanced Edition is priced at $1000 and appointed on a per server basis, upgradable via a license key with no additional software or downtime required. With Citrix XenServer Advanced Edition and iSCSI SAN, easy and affordable HA is possible for SMBs and enterprise departments. For more information on XenServer editions, see the comparison table @ http://www.citrix.com/ xenserver/how-it-works/editions.
If not already done, configure network to enable communication between servers and storage.

If running Free Edition of XenSever, non-disruptively upgrade to Advanced Edition.
Use XenSever Tools to test and trigger XenMotion® and configure HA for automated failover. Support provided for Linux VMs that utilise paravirtualised (PV) drivers/kernel.
the HA capabilities of XenServer Advanced Edition connected to Drobo SAN via iSCSI.
SAN storage is a must when you need to maximise mobility and availability for XenServer. Fibre Channel SANs have a high entry cost, which prevents companies with smaller environments and budgets from taking full advantage of XenServer. iSCSI can be lower in price, but many iSCSI arrays are still tens of thousands of dollars and expensive by most measures. Vendors claim that iSCSI arrays are easy to use and deploy, but most are built with large enterprises in mind.

Crock the vote
I had to share this amazing story from Indiana where state police raided a voter registration organization (for no good reason) making it likely that tens of thousands of newly registered voters, mostly black, will not be able to vote. Where is the Justice Department?
Even if they were able to vote, there's no guarantee their votes will be counted. This great Counterpunch article points out that in some cases Trump is right.
So why is it so hard for liberals to accept the idea that US elections are undemocratic? Sure, it's rather easy for liberals to proclaim from the mountaintops their opposition to discriminatory practices such as voter ID laws because those laws target primarily people of color who mostly vote Democrat. It has little to do with a concern for the truth and for the validity of elections, but is rather about anger that the other team is not playing fair.
But when it comes to doubting the entire electoral system and the results of any given election, liberals don't want to hear that. They don't want to discuss it. They certainly don't want to debate it openly and honestly. Why?
And Truthout tells the sad story of voters forced to cast provisional ballots. "In the 2012 election, some 2.7 million voters cast provisional ballots, about a quarter of which were disallowed. According to the Election Administration Commission, the top reasons provisional ballots are rejected nationwide are that voters aren't registered (38 percent) or vote at the wrong site (25 percent). But the likelihood that a ballot gets tossed for a particular reason can vary sharply from state to state: In Texas, 15 percent of provisional ballots were rejected for being cast in the incorrect place; in Ohio, it was 28 percent; in Indiana, it was 45 percent."
Thankfully, in Wisconsin our Republican election officials are all over the letter of the law. Witness a Green Bay city clerk who refused early voting places for UW-Green Bay students (whose spring primary voting experiences were not so great because of long lines and limited resources). Her reasoning - students are more likely to vote for Democrats.
But privately Teske gave a different reason for opposing an early-voting site at UW–Green Bay, writing that student voting would benefit the Democratic Party. "UWGB is a polling location for students and residents on Election Day but I feel by asking for this to be the site for early voting is encouraging the students to vote more than benefiting the city as a whole," she wrote on August 26 in an e-mail to David Buerger, counsel at the Wisconsin Ethics Commission.
In another close call in Republican anti-voter Wisconsin, thousands of Wisconsin absentee ballots will be counted after all. Earlier this fall, in light of a new law requiring absentee ballots to contain witness addresses, there were questions over what exactly makes up a witness address. The Commission was set to disqualify absentee ballots where witnesses had not included zip codes, for example. "A new Wisconsin law states absentee ballots missing a witness address don't count. The law doesn't say how much address information is needed, however. State Elections Commission staff told local clerks earlier this month that they can't fill in missing elements without voter consent."
Remember - you have until Friday, October 28 (at 5 p.m. in city of La Crosse) to vote absentee in person, avoiding crowds and lines. More details at myvote.wi.gov.

Riberiao Preto Press Conference 4: Game 2 Preperation
As preparations continue ahead of Les Bleus' second Group E match against Switzerland on Friday, the latest in a series of press conferences from Ribeirao Preto provided the gathered media with a rare treat as Rio Mavuba was accompanied by the elusive Patrice Evra.
Speaking in his first national team conference since November 2012, 'Pat' certainly didn't disappoint as he reeled off a succession of comical quips touching upon everything from his love-hate relationship with the media to the infamous 2010 World Cup mole.
Rio Mavuba:
On his role in the squad: 'I'm very competitive and I want to play as much as possible. There's definitely a first XI that's been set up but I'm right there behind them.'
On the feeling within the squad: 'While there have been no problems so far, you never know what can happen. Saying that, there are no divides in the group and we're doing very well.'
'There's a sense of confidence within the group. We're being realistic but we're not afraid of anybody.'
'We haven't played against the biggest nations yet apart from when we played Holland a while back. We know that we're defensively strong though.'
On the feeling among the subs: 'We're concerned, of course, and there's some disappointment when you're not playing but our aims are collective. Eleven players alone isn't enough.'
On Valbuena: 'I know Mathieu Valbuena well, he likes the pressure of big matches and wants to be the best player here.'
'He's the fulcrum of our attacking play on the pitch and a live wire off it… An important player.'
On Mickael Landreau: 'It's going very well with Landreau. Even though he left Lille we still talk a lot and get along well.'
On how the players spend their free time: 'What do we like to do? Video games, perudo, DVDs, naps, books… The goalkeepers like to play a bit of petanque.'
On Stephan Lichtsteiner: 'Lichtsteiner was great at Lille. He has a lot to give to the game and is very strong technically.'
On the World Cup so far: 'We watch the games in the afternoon and in the evening. So far, Germany, Holland and Italy have impressed.'
On Griezmann: 'Griezmann has settled into the group really well and has grown in confidence. He brings some real technical quality and has a good left foot.'
On Switzerland: 'Switzerland are the most important team in the group, it's going to be a real test.'
'I have a video montage of all the Switzerland midfielders on my tablet, I prefer defending against big players as they're a little less lively.'
On Patrice Evra: 'Evra is quite simple really: he gives advice and is always positive for the group. He's a leader and is very important for us.'
'He was very cool and calm in the car on the way over, there's something of a gap between the image he puts out and the one we see.'
On Deschamps: 'When Deschamps talks to me about my position, he certainly knows what he's talking about!'
On Matuidi: 'Matuidi is an important cog in the side. He's a calm, understated guy but it's better to do your talking on the pitch.'
On Pogba: 'Pogba knows that he's a target, that people are watching him. It's down to him to be smart and to make sure that he doesn't repeat what he did on Sunday.'
On the centre-back pairing: 'Varane and Sakho play for top European clubs and we've seen how they can play against Ukraine.'
On the strikers: 'The strikers play with a lot of freedom and we have to defend with seven or eight players. The attackers are all full of confidence and that's how we've progressed.'
'Giroud has moved on now. He didn't hide his disappointment but we spoke about it and it's forgotten.'
Patrice Evra:
On being in Brazil at the World Cup: 'Since being here I've felt like a little kid again. I'm so happy to be here with you.'
'Now, I've put a line through 2010. We sense that the France team are well liked here in Brazil and for that I say 'Obrigado'.'
'The French people were afraid of getting behind this team but that's over now. Everyone is behind us.'
On the public perception of him: 'My bad image doesn't come from the fans but from the media. Our supporters are always positive with me.'
'This whole 'bad boy' image doesn't affect me. I don't read those articles or look at them online.'
'It would be nice if people didn't talk about me. I'm my club's captain and I'm not going to change how I am.'
'I make a living for a lot of people. In front of the cameras I'm just Pat. My outspokenness is going to hit all the headlines.'
'A few of you are waiting for me to launch out grenades but I'm afraid it's not going to happen.' [laughs]
On the 2010 World Cup: 'For people that suffered back in 2010, we can turn the page with a good result here. We need to respect the shirt.'
'After my five match suspension I tried to stay out of the spotlight but it didn't work and my natural demeanour soon came back.'
'Back then I gave everything I had but it sapped all my energy. Today, I balance it much better. I'm doing the same things now but in 2010 it hit me harder because I took my role too seriously.'
'Before the holidays in 2010 I said: 'don't worry guys, I'll take the blame for everyone.''
'Even when things were going badly with the media, I never felt like I didn't have a place within the group.'
'You get the guillotines out for even the slightest mistake. I'm not daft.' [laughs]
'Things went very well with Toulalan in 2010. If we can eat together then there's no problem.'
On Giroud: 'I said to Olivier that in a World Cup you need everyone, there's no ego problem there.'
On Pogba: 'I told that blockhead [Pogba] that if he'd been sent off we would've all given him a good slap.'
On the team spirit: 'This group is a frightening prospect because everything is going so well. At the dinner table, the guys say to me: 'can you imagine if we were all playing for the same club.''
'Our number one enemy is the France team itself. We can't go around thinking we're stars, if we do that we'll lose.'
'We need to be careful. I have full confidence in the 23 players in the group but it's still a fragile situation.'
'I don't like it when people say I'm a leader. Before the matches I say to them: 'guys, there are 23 leaders.''
'We'll soon find out how we react in tough situations. I'm cautiously confident about this France side.'
'When I play the ball I don't necessarily expect it to be given back to me.'
On himself: 'I always love myself and I'm not going to start criticising myself. The Pat of 2010 and the Pat of 2014, I love them both.'
'I don't know why I'm not captain… In any case it's Hugo [Lloris]. I was the captain in 2010 and that's enough for me.'
'It's great to be captain but it's not a priority.'
On missing press conferences: 'Why don't I come more often? After the [2010] World Cup, I'd had enough.'
On Ribery leaving the squad: 'Franck almost made me cry when he left the group, that crazy guy. I was lucky to be there, it's nothing like 2010.'
On his club future: 'Manchester United decided to renew my contract, that's all I can say.'
On Deschamps: 'Nothing is clear with Deschamps. He doesn't do you any favours, he says: 'if you screw up Pat, I won't miss it.''
'From Nice I decided to play for Monaco because it meant I could hook up with Deschamps right away. He's a straight-forward, humble guy.'
'He's won trophies that don't even exist but still remains humble.'
On the infamous 2010 mole: 'The mole? I can laugh about it now. We were in our own little bubble and I've still never found that mole!' [laughs wildly]
On the centre-backs: 'We have four great centre-backs. They don't have too much experience but we communicate a lot.'

Eriosyce napina subsp. glabrescens is a small, geophytic cactus with a solitary, spherical or flattened stem, slowly growing atop a thick, underground taproot. The stem is glaucous-blue, glossy green or dark purple with brown, olive, grey tones, up to 2.2 inches (8 cm) tall and in diameter. The spines are very short, thin, strong, recurved and black in color. The flowers are pale yellowish-red to dull pink, up to 1.4 inches (3.5 cm) long and up to 2.4 inches (6 cm) in diameter.
Eriosyce requires strong sun exposure to develop good spinal growth, but tolerate light shade. Some light shadow my be useful in the hottest summer days.
A rich, fast-draining cactus mix is ideal. Good drainage is essential for health.
During the summer, water your Eriosyce every 2 weeks or slightly less often, depending on how moist the soil remains. In the winter rest period, cut watering back to once a month, or in humid areas, not at all. One of the key factors in success with these cacti is avoiding any hint of wet soil. Because their root systems are weak, they are especially prone to root rot, which will eventually kill your plant.
Eriosyce napina subsp. glabrescens is native to Chile.

In 2000, after several years of research, Fred Page produced a 2 volume work on the men named on the Stanwick War Memorial. A copy of the publication, specially bound by the Simpson family of Stanwick, was presented to Stanwick Parish Council later that year.
Sadly, Fred died in the summer of 2006, but as a tribute to him, his family decided to make available to a wider audience the results of his long endeavours.
Fred Page was born in 1928 in the British Military Hospital, Karachi, the son of a Warrant Officer in the Royal Artillery.
He followed his father into military service also joining the Royal Artillery. After a lengthy service he left the British Army but found that civilian life was no substitute and he soon signed up again, this time joining the Royal New Zealand Artillery.
Returning to the United Kingdom after several years in the antipodes, he and his family eventually arrived in Stanwick in 1971 and by now he had taken up teaching. He joined the staff at the Windmill Primary School, Raunds in 1972, a successful association which lasted until his retirement in 1992.
Fred is survived by his dear wife Valerie, two daughters (one from his previous marriage), two sons and seven grandchildren.
So many people have helped in the compilation of this "book" that I hope there is no-one whose name I have omitted.
Peter Inns promptly telephoned and offered Internet access thus providing details from the War Graves Commission of 50 service men of Stanwick which became the foundation for all other information.
His friend, George Johnson, using his photographic expertise was responsible for producing most of the personal photographs from very old newspaper cuttings.
Gordon Hall of Wollaston, a member of the War Research Society, made his encyclopaedic knowledge of the First World War readily available for many of the historical facts I needed. Gordon also obtained for me many photographs of gravestones and memorials.
Mike Conroy of Wellingborough, telephoned to advise me of the vast source of information available from old newspapers in the office of the Evening Telegraph in Rushden.
The ladies in the "Evening Telegraph" office were most helpful, as were the staff of the Northamptonshire Library Service who obtained many books for me.
Friends and relatives of a number of the deceased soldiers produced photographs, certificates and personal details. These were:
Mr Sid Barker, Stanwick (Pte Barker & Pte Dickerson); Mrs Chapman, Stanwick (Foskett brothers); Mr David Rogers, Raunds (Pte Harrison); Mrs Parkin, Stanwick (Pte Robins); Mr Arthur Popham, Stanwick (Ptes E H & J G Morris); Mr Watford, Raunds (LCpl Watford); Mrs Randa Wright, Stanwick (Pte H Warner); Mrs Turvey, Stanwick (Gdsman Baldwin); Mr Michael Johnson, Raunds (LMM Johnson) and photocopying; Mr Morris, Rushden and Mrs Loveday, Irthlingborough (Pte L Morris); Mr Phillips, Stanwick (Pte Phillips); Mr Ivan York, Ringstead and Mrs Lilley, Raunds (York brothers).
The Keepers of the various Regimental Museums were unstinting in their help and all warrant a special word of thanks. The Regiments and Units concerned were:
Naval Historical Branch; Royal Artillery Institute; The Queen's (Royal West Surrey Regiment); The Buffs (East Kent Regiment); The Norfolk Regiment; The Suffolk Regiment; The Bedfordshire Regiment; The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers; Duke of Cornwall Light Infantry; The Essex Regiment; The Northamptonshire Regiment; The Royal West Kents; The Middlesex Regiment; The Royal Irish Fusiliers; Mr Jim Parker (Machine Gun Corps); RAF Museum (Hendon); The Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
Mr Cliff Pateman helped greatly pin-pointing the houses where many of the deceased lived. Mrs Janet Cutmore used her "Down Your Way" column to help in my research. Mr David Thoday arranged the loan of P/O Clarke's Log Book. Mr Jack Morris for information. Mr Newton, Headmaster of Stanwick School for allowing access to the school's Log Books and Registers. Stanwick Working Men's Club for the use of their Minute Books. Miss Shirley Haygreen for internet contact to Canada. Mr George Durrant, help with facts, pictures and diagrams of the Northamptonshire Regiment. DTL Colour Graphics, Rushden for friendly service and help with reprographics. Ray Westlake, Military Bookseller for information regarding Divisional Signs.
Thanks also to Stanwick MM Committee for part finance and photocopying.
To Simon Page, for the trip to France. Finally, as always, it is to Valerie, my wife, not only has she done all the typing , she has sustained me generously with interest and encouragement, advice and objective criticism.
Fred Page, 2000

Q: Facebook Comment page through API I've searched for a while but I've only found the Facebook UI, that has some basic dialogs. Maybe some of you know some iOS apps that can open the comments page in a new "page" (e.g. Flipboard). Is there a way to show the comment page directly from Facebook or I have to simulate it through the API?
UPDATE: Not a page comment box. I want to show the comments of a post.

A: It is possible to create a facebook app showing your comment box. The same comment box can be showed in different pages/ urls using the "data-href" url.

You could eventually add an static url in a database or something like that to wich you can always refer.
I dont exactly know what you want but i hope this helps

Please join us for the opening of Olga Koumoundouros' Roundhouse Shines. Roundhouse Shines is a site-determined artwork created for the Bowtie Project using the neglected foundation of a historic train turn-around. For this work, Koumoundouros has constructed a 90+ foot long wooden table that bisects the center of the roundhouse and mirrors the topography of the ground. Rectilinear benches made from salvaged rail yard planks line the table and shade canopies provide relief from the sun. The entire structure including the roundhouse floor and its native debris are coated in a multicolored gradient of acrylic house paint.

MPACT was venturing into plastic recycling with plans to build a plant for R350 million in partnership with the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), the listed packaging group announced yesterday.
The plastic recycling plant will process about 29 000 tons of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles a year, generating 21 000 tons of new raw material directly from waste material that would otherwise be sent to landfill sites.
The new PET recycling plant will be situated in Wadeville, Germiston and is due to be commissioned during the second half of next year. The business will be held in newly formed company Mpact Polymers, in which Mpact will hold a 79 percent stake and the IDC 21 percent.
The new development fits with the company's growth strategy, which includes identifying new investment opportunities.
The company posted strong results for the six months to June yesterday. Basic underlying earnings a share increased by 19.2 percent to 91.8c, Mpact reported, on the back of a 13.2 percent rise in revenue to R4 billion, while underlying operating profit gained 14.5 percent to R270m.
The group attributed its performance to a favourable sales mix and improved productivity.
The new investment will help create about 1 000 jobs directly and indirectly, in addition to a saving of about 180 000m3 of landfill space each year – the equivalent of 75 Olympic-size swimming pools.
Strong said the PET plant investment, together with the R765m investment announced in March to upgrade the Felixton paper mill, were evidence of Mpact's commitment to exploit sound growth opportunities.
On Mpact's half-year performance, Strong said the results reflected the group's resilience, established market positions and the benefits derived from investments made over past years to improve productivity.
Mpact said the general trading environment in the first half was characterised by subdued growth in gross domestic product and consumer spending. The company also saw a decline in fruit exports that resulted in low demand for fruit packaging.
Dirk van Vlaanderen, an investment analyst at Kagiso Asset Management, said Mpact had delivered an encouraging set of first-half results despite a weak consumer environment, slower agricultural demand and meaningful input costs pressure.
Van Vlaanderen said the R350m investment in a new plastic recycling plant in Gauteng was positive for the plastics division and should help secure supply and reduce polymer costs, adding further margin support to this division over time.
He was also of the view that despite the strong performance in the first half, Mpact's management had an uphill task to deliver a solid second half as the next six months were likely to see continued consumer and input-cost headwinds, as well as an estimated R20m impact from a four-week-long industry strike in July.
Mpact's share price rose 2.91 percent to R31.80 yesterday.
