Why my sewing machine breaking was the best thing that could have happened???
I have been in the sewing mood. With tons of projects and ideas in mind. While working on a project last week. The unthinkable happened. My sewing machine stop stitching properly. I tried trouble shooting only for it to continue acting up. So I took it to be repaired only to be disappointed by the gentleman at the repair shop. He was so busy trying to sell me a Bernina and showed no interest in even looking at my Janome. So I left feeling sad, discouraged and disappointed. That machine was a great little work horse.
Once I got home and pulled myself together…..I decided to take a friends advice that she'd given me years in advance. After, all she's been sewing for over 40 year's. She said all metal machines are the best. They last for a long time and just sew better. I decided that I was going to get a replacement sewing machine but it would have to meet my requirements. Which I only had a few.
1. All metal (vintage) in very good condition.
3. At least 10 stitch settings.
Now could I actually find something that meets my needs/requirements?
Would I stick to my list of requirements…. mostly not going over the set budget?
So my first thought is to try eBay. I was surprised at the number of machines that met all of my requirements. So I watched a few. Hoping to win….one in particular. If I can't win my first choice I have a few others as backup's to bid on.
Saturday rolls around. I check and the machine only has 1 bid and the auction ends at 6:30 p.m. The kid's an I head out running errands and around 5:30 we head to get some dinner. They want pizza from Whole Food's which is perfect. I can get the item's on my list from there and grab dinner.
The clock strikes 6:20 p.m. I check on the auction, still only the 1 bid…..yes. It get's down to the final few seconds I swoop in and win the machine for $52.00. I am so excited. I got the machine that met my needs and best of all under budget……$52.00 + $24.95 shipping for a total of $76.95.
The Machine arrives 4 day's later. Just as pictured in great condition. It's a vintage Necchi. This machine sews like a dream. The speed and stitch quality are just sensational. I am so pleased. So much so, that I whipped up 6 skirt's in 2 day's. I can't believe it. It's funny how my machine breaking ended up being the best thing that could've happened. Although I was sad to let my Janome go….the Necchi won me over at first stitch.
This was a great lesson learned. That sometime's mishaps can be just what you need.
I would love to know, what mishap have you had that actually turned out great in the end?

Q: Olimexino 328 upload problem I'm young user of Arduino IDE and with my new Olimexino-328 it's quite impossible to upload any sketch without stk500 sync error :

I don't know what version of optiboot is installed.
If someone as an idea, I'll appreciate  Thanks.

A: It is odd that they are using 57600 baud since it has a 16MHz crystal.  Have you tried treating the board as a uno and uploading at 115200?
Also note the two FAQs at the bottom of their web site, the second seems especially relevant. From https://www.olimex.com/Products/Duino/AVR/OLIMEXINO-328/open-source-hardware
I can't upload my code via Arduino IDE. Where is the problem?
The board is recognized as Arduino DueMilanove /w ATmega328 in Arduino IDE.

Make sure you have selected exactly that. Also check which port the board uses
and adjust it in Tools->Serial.

I do everything as supposed but when I try to upload code via the USB I receive the
following error: "avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00". What is wrong?

It is very likely that your OLIMEXINO-328 would work as expected if you install FTDI
drivers that are NOT newer than 2.08.14. There is good chance you are using the latest
FTDI at the moment. The whole problem is explained in details in this forum post: FTDI

The New Humanitarian | Does Countering Violent Extremism work?
Does Countering Violent Extremism work?
A strategy that has its roots in counter-terrorism called Countering Violent Extremism, or CVE, is a massive growth area in the aid industry and has become an accepted component of a dizzying range of programmes. But what evidence is there that it works?
The breadth of what is included under CVE was outlined in the UN's plan of action presented by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in January. He made more than 70 recommendations for member states to include in national CVE programming, ranging from development policy initiatives, good governance, human rights, to youth empowerment, gender equality, and the role of social media.
And yet there is no consensus on what counts as "violent extremism". Naz Modirzadeh, director of the Harvard Law School Program on International Law and Armed Conflict points out that Ban failed to provide a definition, and worries that as states and institutions "run headlong" into CVE programming much remains unclear.
"Policymakers should disaggregate even the most radical movements and look for opportunities to end violence"
"What is CVE? What isn't CVE? Is there sufficiently strong evidence upon which to base CVE approaches? What is lost by dedicating resources to CVE, and therefore away from other initiatives?" she wrote.
One of the underlying assumptions of CVE is that societies can be extremism-proofed by providing jobs, public services, and education for all.
But J.M. Berger, an author and analyst studying extremism at George Washington University, doubts this premise.
"Decades of research have found that correlations between structural development factors (such as high unemployment or low levels of education) and terrorism are at best unclear and often contraindicated," he notes.
A "whole-of-society" approach to dealing with a problem of extremism that may engage less than one percent of the population seems extravagant. But CVE is increasingly where the donor money is; its lack of precision and squishy boundaries make it tempting to rebrand so many existing programmes and pet projects – from poverty alleviation to cultural exchanges – as now on the counter-terrorism frontline.
CVE has become rapidly institutionalised within national bureaucracies, and internationally through bodies like the Global Counterterrorism Forum, and the Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund. But the coherence problem means that among international partners there is no clear agreement on the alternative ideology to be promoted, and the charge of hypocrisy against the West and its allies is an ever-present marketing problem.
"Consider the coalition against ISIS (so-called Islamic State), which includes liberal democracies and authoritarian dictatorships, as well as conservative religious societies such as Saudi Arabia, where state-sponsored religious ideology is distinguished from ISIS perhaps most importantly by its lack of military adventurism," Berger points out.
According to Rami Khouri at the American University of Beirut, the fight against extremism can be blind to the grievances that have stoked the violence, with the obvious example of the Middle East. Moreover, promoting well-intentioned messages of tolerance for fragile states to adopt may appear insincere when juxtaposed against the headlines chronicling deepening xenophobia in Western countries.
CVE initiatives stand or fall on the basis of the vitality of state-community relations. CVE is the "soft power" approach to counter-terrorism, but it is not always used gently by governments "to nurture relationships, build trust, and define shared objectives with community interlocutors", notes Peter Romaniuk of the Global Centre of Cooperative Security.
The embrace of a distrusted state can delegitimise moderate voices within the community; or conversely lead to missed opportunities for engagement with more radical elements. The perception that certain communities or minorities are being targeted can also be stigmatising.
Extremism is no crime. But there is a tendency to equate protest, rebellion, and radicalism as somehow related to the problem of "violent extremism". Yet even the most hardline groups have many in their ranks who have joined for a range of non-ideological reasons, and so much is still unknown about how and why people become radicalised.
"Policymakers should disaggregate even the most radical movements and look for opportunities to end violence, not lump others in with them," says a report by the International Crisis Group on al-Qaeda and the Islamic State.
CVE's definition problem is important. Is the goal to prevent violent behaviour by disengaging individuals from violent groups; or is it to inoculate people against radical thought, part of a grander counter-radicalisation social engineering project? The lack of clear parameters is one reason measuring CVE success is extremely hard.
But based on what evidence is publicly available, Romaniuk describes CVE as a "field that has risen to prominence in a manner disproportional to its achievements".
The first wave of CVE programming in the West was generally aimed at building community resilience to extremist ideas, and was inevitably a case of trial and error – with far more lessons on what not to do than examples of what worked.
"Encouraging governments towards inclusion and gradual reform is usually the most valuable contribution allies can make"
Increasingly, the "battle of ideas" approach is being dropped in favour of more individual-level interventions to address behavioural radicalisation. The evaluation of more recent initiatives will take time but, overall, the proof of CVE's worth remains thin.
"The record offers some pointers for more effective programming going forward but commends moderate expectations overall," is Romaniuk's careful wording.
No one can deny that tackling the grievances that underpin violent extremism is the right thing to do. Failures of governance, of opportunity, condemn so many to desperate, undignified lives. Resistance, with the intention of building a better future, can therefore seem to some an almost logical response.
But the approach must also be measured, more carefully than it is now.
"Encouraging governments towards inclusion and gradual reform is usually the most valuable contribution allies can make to preventing crises that open opportunities for extremists," the ICG advises.

Microsoft, Zoom and Former Lawmakers Hold Remote Hearing Test
April 16, 2020 5:46 AM	 By Rebecca Kern
Dozens of former congressional members are hosting a mock remote hearing Thursday to spotlight how Congress can continue its work online during the global coronavirus pandemic.
The goal of the mock event is to test the logistics and pitfalls of how a congressional hearing would work virtually, since the House and Senate are not scheduled to resume work in Washington until May 4. The pressure to allow more remote activities has mounted in recent days as Congress negotiates further rounds of relief funding to aid an economy crippled by social distancing efforts. With lawmakers at home, work on the legislative agenda as a whole has slowed.
The hearing will be hosted by an advocacy group and led by former Reps. Brian Baird (D-Wash.) and Bob Inglis (R-S.C.). The witness list features representatives from Zoom Video Communications Inc. and Microsoft Corp., as well as the former head of the Central Intelligence Agency—Gen. David Petraeus—and others.
Neither Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) nor Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) have yet to embrace virtual hearings or remote voting. House Rules Chairman Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) and House Administration Chairman Zoe Lofgren (D-Calf.) will provide an update on remote voting options during a House Democratic Caucus call Thursday.
Some panels, including the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, have hosted "paper" hearings in recent weeks where lawmakers and witnesses submit written questions and statements to a website. Thursday's mock hearing will test video conferencing technology, but is a private event that will be shared later.
Remote Voting by Congress Technically Feasible If Leaders Agree
"Without a question, the technology exists now," Baird said in an interview. Baird will lead the virtual event along with Inglis, who served as Baird's ranking member during the 111th Congress on a House subcommittee. Baird has been working on continuity of Congress issues since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and is a consultant for Democracy Fund Voice, a nonprofit civic organization.
"There will have to be some adaptation of the tech and some adjustment by the members of Congress and their staff, but there's no question that you can hold hearings that will be productive and informative right now," he said.
Baird said they are using Zoom for the hearing, but consulted with multiple security experts following reports of privacy and security issues with the videoconference service. He also said the organizers are technology agnostic and hope to share lessons learned with other tech providers. "We're following best practices in terms of how to secure the call itself," he said.
Working Out Issues
So far, nearly sixty former members of the House and Senate have signed up to participate in the mock hearing being hosted in part by Marci Harris, CEO and founder of Popvox, a California-based startup that provides technology advice to Congress.
"Any time you're trying a new technology, there are lot of issues that you could not possibly anticipate until you are using it," Harris said in interview. She said she wants the panelists to hit technology and logistical problems "so that current members and staffers don't have to." The lessons learned will be shared with various House and Senate committee staff.
The first panel will feature Petraeus, the former CIA director under President Barack Obama and now chairman of the KKR Global Institute, discussing applications of remote technologies in the military and corporate world, Baird said.
The second panel will include a senior tech specialist from Microsoft and a federal sales executive from Zoom. And the third panel will include Chi Onwurah, a member of the U.K. Parliament; Daniel Schuman, policy director at the think tank Demand Progress; and Beth Noveck, director of New York University's Governance Lab.
"If there is a possible problem, we want to suss it out, so that when we give advice about what can and should be done, it's grounded in experience," Schuman said in an interview.

New Pages is a long-established, attractively designed and well-organized portal to the world of independent literary presses and magazines, both print and online, as well as to creative writing programs, indie bookstores, writing contests, and more. Founded and edited by Casey Hill and Denise Hill, the site includes a webstore with the current issues of 30 featured magazines (such as Upstreet, Mudfish, Fiddlehead, and Southern Humanities Review), in-depth reviews of magazines and books, classifieds, and writers' resources (including a searchable, comprehensive guide to independent and university book publishers as well as a guide to writing conferences, undergraduate writing programs, and graduate writing programs).
They also offer a weekly blog and newsletter with brief reviews of recent lit mag issues, noteworthy new books, cover picks of the week, prize winners, and exclusive interviews with editors, publishers, and writers. One of the essential, and best-curated, sites of information for writers and readers on the net.
Open Culture is an educational and cultural treasure, since 2006 offering 1,200 free online courses, more than 1000 MOOCs, 1,150 free movies, 700 free audio books, and 800 free eBooks, etc. Comparable to Project Gutenburg, it is the net version of a global scale free library or museum. The literature offerings include lectures by Garber and Bloom on Shakespeare; courses on contemporary literature, Creative Reading, Creative Writing, the Literature of Crisis and more; recordings of T.S. Eliot, Plath, Joyce, Flannery O'Connor, Anne Sexton, and David Foster Wallace; and famous writers' syllabi and writing tips (there are also extensive offerings in art books and images to interest WTP readers). The site also offers a weekly RSS/email newsletter and a searchable archive. Its editor is Dan Colman, the Director and Associate Dean of Stanford's Continuing Studies Program.
Electric Literature and Catapult Magazine are independent entities both founded by Andy Hunter, a CUNY-Brooklyn MFA with a West Coast marketing background. EL (2009–) also partners with Grove/Atlantic in producing LitHub, which I've previously recommended; boasts of promoting "extraordinary writing;" and aspires, at least, "to reach an audience of millions" (to my knowledge the only avowed literary publication to accomplish that is the NYT Book Review).
Okey-Pankey, a weekly section which includes poems, fiction, essays, and comics. While diverting, little here impressed me as particularly salient.
Catapult Magazine, on the other hand, is an offshoot of a new book publishing company, and "conceptually mirrors the ecosystem in which writers and creatives exist right now," according to Hunter. The CEO of Catapult books is daughter of the billionaire Charles Koch. Hunter is the publisher and co-founder, Pat Strachan is editor-in-chief, and the web editor is Yuka Igarashi, the former managing editor of Granta. The website publishes short fiction and essays, graphic pieces, and stories told in multimedia. A Community section works like Fictionaut and Zoetrope (reviewed here earlier); where writers self-publish, then recommend each other's stories. Web editors choose from the most popular works and pay the selected writers. Catapult also offers focused writing classes, such as Short Story Master Class, Fiction Master Class, How to Craft a Voice, and Open-Genre Workshop: How to be Funny, Seriously; these meet online and in their NYC offices.
Brevity is one of the most respected showcases of creative nonfiction on the web. Brevity has been appearing regularly, three or four issues per year, for nearly twenty years. Founded by Dinty Moore, editor, author of ten books, and an Ohio University professor, it publishes essayists working in brief form (750 words or less), along with craft essays and book reviews. Emerging writers appear alongside the established and award-winning, Americans alongside international writers. The current special issue, #53, examines "lived experiences of Race, Racism, and Racialization." Tasteful, handsome graphics enhance the essays. The Brevity Blog, which is delivered by email "less than five times a year," recently features such articles as: "Election2016: On Experience vs. the Essay" and "The Art of the Interview." An archive of past essays and craft discussions is organized under a wide variety of headings. The site reports that in the past year, Brevity had 10,000 hits per month, while the blog has more than 20,000 subscribers.

Discussion in '3DS - Homebrew Development and Emulators' started by Goodra, Aug 28, 2018.
Hello. I am wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I'm having with JKSM. Whenever i try to save and export save it says 'UH OH! Something went wrong writing! Then I press ok then it says 'success' and then nothing happens. If anyone can help then please reply.
Need more information. 3DS Model/Firmware will help. Are you using .cia or .3dsx version of JKSM? What game? Are you positive you have an existing save file for said game?
There's no path to explore for solutions/explanations based on the info you have given.
Well, I can tell you it's an older release. I changed that message to say "Read/Write mismatch" or something like that. Usually that means there was a problem with the path and the output files couldn't be created.
Shall I let the master himself handle this?
Also, love your app. Has been crucial to much of my 3DS experience last year.
Well i've been trying to use the one you gave me on a different thread but when i click on my game it only have save options like delete save or extra save or delete extra save.
I would just get the latest release from the repository in his sig and check from there.
How are you booting homebrew? The newer releases don't want to work with *hax entry points for whatever reason.
So, no error relating to opening or creating them? Kind of confused here. These are the errors that will pop-up if something fails.
Unless I missed a bool... I'll have to look.
I have CFW but have been to lazy to check out Checkpoint, JKSM was already well established on my 3DS by the time that came out.
If I feel the need. My 3DS has been a bit on the back burner since I got my Switch and a better job, meaning piracy hasn't been a big issue for me. Now it's primarily a Smash machine.

The most mysterious and elusive of all the peoples of EVE, the Jovians number only a fraction of any of their neighbors, but their technological superiority makes them powerful beyond all proportion.
Miko Bour united the Jovians in the Second Empire more than 3,000 years ago.
Although definitely human, the Jovians often seem to the other races as though they are not, the reason being that they embraced genetic engineering as the way to solve any and all the problems which plague the human race. Over the thousands of years since, the Jovians have experimented with every kind of genetic modification their technology allowed. As their powers grew, they began to believe they were capable of anything, and this led them into increasingly more bizarre mutations of their bodies and minds, a policy rigorously backed up by strict governmental control.
But one fateful moment in their history made them lose this control for a few generations, and the results were catastrophic. By this time the Jovians had begun interfering with their basic instincts, curbing their aggression and sexual instincts and cultivating strange new ones instead. Since the Shrouded Days, as the Jovians call their momentary social eclipse, they have been trying to put the pieces together again, but their DNA-structure has in many ways been damaged beyond repair. The consequence is the dreaded Jovian Disease. Genetic in nature, it is not infectious to other races, but among Jovians it causes a depression so deep and serious that the victim loses the will to live, and death results within a few days or weeks.
Fetus-tubes, the Jovian way of reproduction for many millennia.
Despite this, the Jovians escaped the chaos that followed the closure of EVE remarkably well. Within the space of only a few centuries they had recovered, and were once again running a hi-tech society. They settled in a number of systems and founded an empire lasting for nine millennia, but even if the Jovians are by far the most technologically advanced of the races of EVE, they have still not recovered the splendour of their first empire. The disease within them keeps them in a reproductive straightjacket, preventing them from increasing their numbers sufficiently for their current empire to flourish.
The Jovians crave knowledge, any knowledge at all. Their superior technology has enabled them to infiltrate the other races with bugging devices and sensors, giving them unrivalled access to information, which they use to maintain their strong position among the races. The Jovians sell a lot of their advanced technology equipment to the other races and it is this, more than anything else, which keeps the others at bay.
Jovian society is mysterious and difficult to comprehend. For this and other reasons it remains very much closed to the other races, and few foreigners reside within the Jovian Empire.

Tocumwal is a town in the southern Riverina region of New South Wales, Australia, in the Berrigan Shire local government area, near the Victorian border. The town is situated on the banks of the Murray River, 270 kilometres (170 mi) north of the city of Melbourne. The Newell Highway and Murray Valley Highway join at the Murray River, and form part of the main road route National Highway A39 between Brisbane and Melbourne. At the 2016 census, Tocumwal had a population of 2,682. The winner of several 'Tidy Town' awards, Tocumwal is affectionately known as 'The Jewel in the Crown That Is The Riverina District'. The town is said to be named for the local Aboriginal word for "deep hole in the river". # History Prior to European settlement, the Tocumwal area was inhabited by the Ulupna and Bangerang Aborigines. The first pastoral runs were established in the 1840s. The town was established in the early 1860s and gazetted in 1862 as "a Village to be called TOCUMWAL ... Situated on the Murray River, on the road from Albury to Deniliquin, about 50 miles west of Corowa, and 40 south-east of Deniliquin."Tocumwal Post Office opened on 1 August 1868.Prior to Federation, Tocumwal was an important customs point for goods crossing between the then colonies of Victoria and New South Wales.A standard gauge branch line from the New South Wales Government Railways Main Southern railway line at Junee reached Narrandera in 1881 and a branch from Narrandera was completed to Tocumwal in 1898. The broad gauge Victorian Railways Melbourne-Shepparton railway line was extended to Tocumwal in 1908, creating a break-of-gauge at Tocumwal until the New South Wales Government Railways line was closed south of Narrandera (about 1980). During World War II the town was the site of Royal Australian Air Force Station Tocumwal, which was a major Royal Australian Air Force training airfield and aircraft depot. Units included the 5 Operational Training Unit, 7 Operational Training Unit, 7 Aircraft Depot and the Paratroop Training Unit. Today, the airfield is a renowned gliding site. After the war families were housed at the American Air Force Hospital, the men travelled daily over the river to Yarroweyah to work on farms which they could then apply for under the soldier settlement scheme. The hospital was on or next to Barooga Station. Living quarters were made in long Nissen huts, 3–4 in each with a shared bathroom. Single quarters were at the front and a cook was employed for them. After the war ended, around 200 of the Air Force houses in Tocumwal were disassembled and trucked to Canberra to be rebuilt and reused in new and inner city suburbs where they provided government housing to workers from Melbourne and Sydney to construct the new capital city. Called Tocumwal houses, they remain a distinctive architectural form in Canberra's suburbs, such as O'Connor and Ainslie.Because of the break-of-gauge between the railways north and south of Tocumwal, this station was a natural choice for military oriented storage facilities and munitions dumps.Also during World War II, Tocumwal was the location of RAAF No.14 Inland Aircraft Fuel Depot, completed in 1942 and closed on 14 June 1944. Usually consisting of 4 tanks, 31 fuel depots were built across Australia for the storage and supply of aircraft fuel for the RAAF and the US Army Air Forces at a total cost of £900,000 ($1,800,000). # Weather Tocumwal has a semi-arid climate. # Things to do

5 Reasons to Stop at Theodore Roosevelt National Park on your way to Yellowstone
On your way to Yellowstone National Park huh? Well, coming west of the Mississippi has gotten a lot easier since Lewis and Clark's time, but you and the family will still need to stretch those legs sometime before you get to Old Faithful. And Medora, North Dakota is the perfect place to do just that! Here's why…
You're a National Park fanatic!
Be inspired by the Badlands that inspired a President. Theodore Roosevelt National Park has wild horses — and so much more. Set in the heart of the rugged North Dakota Badlands, TRNP is chalk-full of bison, elk, prairie dogs, and more. And it's not just wildlife! The "Teddy" has numerous hiking trials and is laden with scenic overlooks, which make for great photo opportunities. It's North Dakotas only National Park — and you need to see it!
Find your Park and share your story here!
The Medora Musical!
What's better than a full day spent hiking Wind Canyon trail, taking pictures at the top of Buck Hill, and coming up close – but not too close 🙂 – and personal with a bison? Spending the rest of the night at dinner and a Show! The Pitchfork Steak Fondue and the Medora Musical are absolute musts on any trip to or through Medora — and you better believe you'll be whistling a tune all the way to Mammoth Hot Springs! Don't believe us?
Bully Pulpit Golf Course.
The rugged Badlands are great for photographing and hiking – they're also incredible to golf in! Bully Pulpit Golf Course is a "Top 100 Public Golf Course in America" and is sure to leave you breathless! Hit your tee shots over 100 ft. canyons and putt with jagged buttes all around. There's nothing quite like it. See for yourself!
It's a long drive. Ya gotta eat.
Bringing the kids with you? Well, they're gonna get hungry. Good thing we have the Badlands Pizza Parlor and Chuckwagon Buffet – two restaurants that will satisfy even the pickiest eater!
Are you just traveling with your significant other? Lucky for you (just ask the parents above) the elegant Theodore's Dining Room awaits. Start with a custom cocktail at TR's Tavern before moving on to a wonderful dinner prepared by our executive chef.
You're a Theodore Roosevelt buff.
In honor of the 100th Anniversary of the National Park System, this year's TR Salute to Medora will feature a tribute to the National Parks! Roosevelt was an ardent supporter of the parks and instrumental in the development of the National Park System. The role Teddy played in the National Park Service's development is fascinating — and will be told in full during this year's TR Salute to Medora and the National Parks!

Some things get better when they've been around a while. Ryan Gosling for example, or Niagara wine, or hey—even already-pretty-good-looking General Managers.
And then there's the Chevy Equinox.
Now we're not suggesting an older Equinox is better than the all-new 2018 model. We're saying only this—the old ones are good, but the new ones are even better.
But don't take our word for it, look at the evidence.
Excellent cars? They win "Wards 10 Best" awards.
"Wards" refers to Wards Automotive magazine—and while that may not be a household name, Wards is a big deal in the auto industry.
Any time they judge a vehicle one of the "10 Best" you can be sure it's mighty impressive.
And the 2018 Chevy Equinox? Recently judged to have one of the 10 Best Interiors. That means it's on a par with cars costing two, three, and even four times as much.
High praise indeed—and if you've checked out an Equinox you'll agree it's deserved.
But if you haven't been to look at an Equinox yet, here's what else you're missing.
It's comfortable and quiet, has some giddy-up when you need it, and sips gas when you don't. No wonder it's been a best seller for several years now.
For 2018 the Equinox was restyled and re-engineered.
It's become a little shorter, lower, and—most important—lighter. That's especially significant because, as engineers love to explain, that means less momentum… and therefore greater agility through the twisty bits of road.
Outside it sports what seems to have become the Chevy "look." The bowtie emblem adorns the hood and LED daylight running lights are standard. The flanks appear wind-sculpted, and indeed you could say they were as prototypes spent more than a few hours in the wind tunnel.
Under the hood, you'll find one of three new engines. Replacing the 2.4-litre of previous generations is a 1.5-litre turbo. Yes, that might sound small, but power and torque are comparable to the older lump. Plus, as we noted earlier, the Equinox has been on a diet—so there's less weight to lug around.
Take it out for a test drive and you'll find this new motor remarkably refined, and—thanks to the turbocharger—plenty powerful.
If you really want more ponies there is an alternative. Chevy also offers an optional 2.0-litre engine. If you drive it, press gently on the gas because it does go! And if fuel-saving is your priority there's also a 1.6-litre turbo-diesel.
If that appeals, ask us about real-world fuel efficiency numbers.
Here's a quick run-through. The Equinox comes in LS, LT and Premier trims. Goodies like heated front seats are standard across the range as are Bluetooth connectivity, keyless start, and the Chevrolet MyLink audio system.
We're out of space here and can't go into all the other features on the 2018 Equinox. Why not just come see us and take a look for yourself? Call or email and we'll arrange a time for you to get acquainted with this award-winning SUV.
Maybe you'll even meet the (imaginary) award-winning me.

Utopia or Dystopia
where past meets future
Big Brother, Big Data, and the Forked Path
Sep22 by Rick Searle
The technological ecosystem in which political power operates tends to mark out the possibility space for what kinds of political arrangements, good and bad, exist within that space. Orwell's Oceania and its sister tyrannies were imagined in what was the age of big, centralized media. Here the Party had under its control not only the older printing press, having the ability to craft and doctor, at will, anything created using print from newspapers, to government documents, to novels. It also controlled the newer mediums of radio and film, and, as Orwell imagined, would twist those technologies around backwards to serve as spying machines aimed at everyone.
The questions, to my knowledge, Orwell never asked was what was the Party to do with all that data? How was it to store, sift through, make sense of, or locate locate actual threats within it the yottabytes of information that would be gathered by recording almost every conversation, filming or viewing almost every movement, of its citizens lives? In other words, the Party would have ran into the problem of Big Data. Many of Orwellian developments since 9/11 have come in the form of the state trying to ride the wave of the Big Data tsunami unleashed with the rise of the internet, an attempt create it's own form of electronic panopticon.
In their book Top Secret America: The Rise of the New American Security State, Dana Priest, and ,William Arkin, of the Washington Post present a frightening picture of the surveillance and covert state that has mushroomed in the United States since 9/11. A vast network of endeavors which has grown to dwarf, in terms of cummulative numbers of programs and operations, similar efforts, during the unarguably much more dangerous Cold War. (TS 12)
Theirs' is not so much a vision of an America of dark security services controlled behind the scenes by a sinister figure like J. Edgar Hoover, as it is one of complexity gone wild. Priest and Arkin paint a picture of Top Secret America as a vast data sucking machine, vacuuming up every morsel of information with the intention of correctly "connecting the dots", (150) in the hopes of preventing another tragedy like 9/11.
So much money was poured into intelligence gathering after 9/11, in so many different organizations, that no one, not the President, nor the Director of the CIA, nor any other official has a full grasp of what is going on. The security state, like the rest of the American government, has become reliant on private contractors who rake in stupendous profits. The same corruption that can be found elsewhere in Washington is found here. Employees of the government and the private sector spin round and round in a revolving door between the Washington connections brought by participation in political establishment followed by big-time money in the ballooning world of private security and intelligence. Priest quotes one American intelligence official who had the balls to describe the insectous relationship between government and private security firms as "a self-licking ice cream cone". (TS 198)
The flood of money that inundated the intelligence field in after 9/11 has created what Priest and Arkin call an "alternative geography" companies doing covert work for the government that exist in huge complexes, some of which are large contain their very own "cities"- shopping centers, athletic facilities, and the like. To these are added mammoth government run complexes some known and others unknown.
Our modern day Winston Smiths, who work for such public and private intelligence services, are tasked not with the mind numbing work of doctoring history, but with the equally superfluous job of repackaging the very same information that had been produced by another individual in another organization public or private each with little hope that they would know that the other was working on the same damned thing. All of this would be a mere tragic waste of public money that could be better invested in other things, but it goes beyond that by threatening the very freedoms that these efforts are meant to protect.
Perhaps the pinnacle of the government's Orwellian version of a Google FaceBook mashup is the gargantuan supercomputer data center in Bluffdale Nevada built and run by the premier spy agency in the age of the internet- the National Security Administration or NSA. As described by James Bamford for Wired Magazine:
In the process—and for the first time since Watergate and the other scandals of the Nixon administration—the NSA has turned its surveillance apparatus on the US and its citizens. It has established listening posts throughout the nation to collect and sift through billions of email messages and phone calls, whether they originate within the country or overseas. It has created a supercomputer of almost unimaginable speed to look for patterns and unscramble codes. Finally, the agency has begun building a place to store all the trillions of words and thoughts and whispers captured in its electronic net.
It had been thought that domestic spying by the NSA, under a super-secret program with the Carl Saganesque name, Stellar Wind, had ended during the G.W. Bush administration, but if the whistleblower, William Binney, interviewed in this chilling piece by Laura Poitras of the New York Times, is to be believed, the certainly unconstitutional program remains very much in existence.
The bizarre thing about this program is just how wasteful it is. After all, don't private companies, such as FaceBook and Google not already possess the very same kinds of data trails that would be provided by such obviously unconstitutional efforts like those at Bluffdale? Why doesn't the US government just subpoena internet and telecommunications companies who already track almost everything we do for commercial purposes? The US government, of course, has already tried to turn the internet into a tool of intelligence gathering, most notably, with the stalled Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Intelligence Act, or CISPA , and perhaps it is building Bluffdale in anticipation that such legislation will fail, that however it is changed might not be to its liking, or because it doesn't want to be bothered with the need to obtain warrants or with constitutional niceties such as our protection against unreasonable search and seizure.
If such behemoth surveillance instruments fulfill the role of the telescreens and hidden microphones in Orwell's 1984, then the role the only group in the novel whose name actually reflects what it is- The Spies – children who watch their parents for unorthodox behavior and turn them in, is taken today by the American public itself. In post 9/11 America it is, local law enforcement, neighbors, and passersby who are asked to "report suspicious activity". People who actually do report suspicious activity have their observations and photographs recorded in an ominous sounding data base that Orwell himself might have named called The Guardian. (TS 144)
As Priest writes:
Guardian stores the profiles of tens of thousands of Americans and legal residents who are not accused of any crime. Most are not even suspected of one. What they have done is appear, to a town sheriff, a traffic cop, or even a neighbor to be acting suspiciously". (TS 145)
Such information is reported to, and initially investigated by, the personnel in another sort of data collector- the "fusion centers" which had been created in every state after 9/11.These fusion centers are often located in rural states whose employees have literally nothing to do. They tend to be staffed by persons without intelligence backgrounds, and who instead hailed from law enforcement, because those with even the bare minimum of foreign intelligence experience were sucked up by the behemoth intelligence organizations, both private and public, that have spread like mould around Washington D.C.
Into this vacuum of largely non-existent threats came "consultants" such as Montijo Walid Shoebat, who lectured fusion center staff on the fantastical plot of Muslims to establish Sharia Law in the United States. (TS 271-272). A story as wild as the concocted boogeymen of Goldstein and the Brotherhood in Orwell's dystopia.
It isn't only Mosques, or Islamic groups that find themselves spied upon by overeager local law enforcement and sometimes highly unprofessional private intelligence firms. Completely non-violent, political groups, such as ones in my native Pennsylvania, have become the target of "investigations". In 2009 the private intelligence firm the Institute for Terrorism Research and Response compiled reports for state officials on a wide range of peaceful political groups that included: "The Pennsylvania Tea Party Patriots Coalition, the Libertarian Movement, anti-war protesters, animal-rights groups, and an environmentalist dressed up as Santa Claus and handing out coal-filled stockings" (TS 146). A list that is just about politically broad enough to piss everybody off.
Like the fusion centers, or as part of them, data rich crime centers such as the Memphis Real Time Crime Center are popping up all over the United States. Local police officers now suck up streams of data about the environments in which they operate and are able to pull that data together to identify suspects- now by scanning licence plates, but soon enough, as in Arizona, where the Maricopa County Sheriff's office was creating up to 9,000 biometric, digital profiles a month (TS 131) by scanning human faces from a distance.
Sometimes crime centers used the information gathered for massive sweeps arresting over a thousand people at a clip. The result was an overloaded justice and prison system that couldn't handle the caseload (TS 144), and no doubt, as was the case in territories occupied by the US military, an even more alienated and angry local population.
From one perspective Big Data would seem to make torture more not less likely as all information that can be gathered from suspects, whatever their station, becomes important in a way it wasn't before, a piece in a gigantic, electronic puzzle. Yet, technological developments outside of Big Data, appear to point in the direction away from torture as a way of gathering information.
"Controlled torture", the phrase burns in my mouth, has always been the consequence of the unbridgeable space between human minds. Torture attempts to break through the wall of privacy we possess as individuals through physical and mental coercion. Big Data, whether of the commercial or security variety, hates privacy because it gums up the capacity to gather more and more information for Big Data to become what so it desires- Even Bigger Data. The dilemma for the state, or in the case of the Inquisition, the organization, is that once the green light has been given to human sadism it is almost impossible to control it. Torture, or the knowledge of torture inflicted on loved ones, breeds more and more enemies.
Torture's ham fisted and outwardly brutal methods today are going hopelessly out of fashion. They are the equivalent of rifling through someone's trash or breaking into their house to obtain useful information about them. Much better to have them tell you what you need to know because they "like" you.
In that vein, Priest describes some of the new interrogation technologies being developed by the government and private security technology firms. One such technology is an "interrogation booth" that contain avatars with characteristics (such as an older Hispanic woman) that have been psychologically studied to produce more accurate answers from those questioned. There are ideas to replace the booth with a tiny projector mounted on a soldier's or policeman's helmet to produce the needed avatar at a moments notice. There was also a "lie detecting beam" that could tell- from a distance- whether someone was lying by measuring miniscule changes on a person's skin. (TS 169) But if security services demand transparency from those it seeks to control they offer up no such transparency themselves. This is the case not only in the notoriously secretive nature of the security state, but also in the way the US government itself explains and seeks support for its policies in the outside world.
Orwell, was deeply interested in the abuse of language, and I think here too, the actions of the American government would give him much to chew on. Ever since the disaster of the war in Iraq, American officials have been obsessed with the idea of "soft-power". The fallacy that resistance to American policy was a matter of "bad messaging" rather than the policy itself. Sadly, this messaging was often something far from truthful and often fell under what the government termed" Influence operations" which, according to Priest:
Influence operations, as the name suggests, are aimed at secretly influencing or manipulating the opinions of foreign audiences, either on an actual battlefield- such as during a feint in a tactical battle- or within civilian populations, such as undermining support for an existing government of terrorist group (TS 59)
Another great technological development over the past decade has been the revolution in robotics, which like Big Data is brought to us by the ever expanding information processing powers of computers, the product of Moore's Law.
Since 9/11 multiple forms of robots have been perfected, developed, and deployed by the military, intelligence services and private contractors only the most discussed and controversial of which have been flying drones. It is with these and other tools of covert warfare, such as drones, and in his quite sweeping understanding and application of executive power that President Obama has been even more Orwellian than his predecessor.
Obama may have ended the torture of prisoners captured by American soldiers and intelligence officials, and he certainly showed courage and foresight in his assassination of Osama Bin Laden, a fact by which the world can breathe a sigh of relief. The problem is that he has allowed, indeed propelled, the expansion of the instruments of American foreign policy that are largely hidden from the purview and control of the democratic public. In addition to the surveillance issues above, he has put forward a sweeping and quite dangerous interpretation of executive power in the forms of indefinite detention without trial found in the NDAA, engaged in the extrajudicial killings of American citizens, and asserted the prerogative, questionable under both the constitution and international law, to launch attacks, both covert and overt, on countries with which the United States is not officially at war.
In the words of Conor Friedersdorf of the Atlantic writing on the unprecedented expansion of executive power under the Obama administration and comparing these very real and troubling developments to the paranoid delusions of right-wing nuts, who seem more concerned with the fantastical conspiracy theories such as the Social Security Administration buying hollow-point bullets:
… the fact that the executive branch is literally spying on American citizens, putting them on secret kill lists, and invoking the state secrets privilege to hide their actions doesn't even merit a mention. (by the right-wing).
Perhaps surprisingly, the technologies created in the last generation seem tailor made for the new types of covert war the US is now choosing to fight. This can perhaps best be seen in the ongoing covert war against Iran which has used not only drones but brand new forms of weapons such the Stuxnet Worm.
The questions posed to us by the militarized versions of Big Data, new media, Robotics, and spyware/computer viruses are the same as those these phenomena pose in the civilian world: Big Data; does it actually provide us with a useful map of reality, or instead drown us in mostly useless information? In analog to the question of profitability in the economic sphere: does Big Data actually make us safer? New Media, how is the truth to survive in a world where seemingly any organization or person can create their own version of reality. Doesn't the lack of transparency by corporations or the government give rise to all sorts of conspiracy theories in such an atmosphere, and isn't it ultimately futile, and liable to backfire, for corporations and governments to try to shape all these newly enabled voices to its liking through spin and propaganda? Robotics; in analog to the question of what it portends to the world of work, what is it doing to the world of war? Is Robotics making us safer or giving us a false sense of security and control? Is it engendering an over-readiness to take risks because we have abstracted away the very human consequences of our actions- at least in terms of the risks to our own soldiers. In terms of spyware and computer viruses: how open should our systems remain given their vulnerabilities to those who would use this openness for ill ends?
At the very least, in terms of Big.Data, we should have grave doubts. The kind of FaceBook from hell the government has created didn't seem all that capable of actually pulling information together into a coherent much less accurate picture. Much like their less technologically enabled counterparts who missed the collapse of the Eastern Bloc and fall of the Soviet Union, the new internet enabled security services missed the world shaking event of the Arab Spring.
The problem with all of these technologies, I think, is that they are methods for treating the symptoms of a diseased society, rather than the disease itself. But first let me take a detour through Orwell vision of the future of capitalist, liberal democracy seen from his vantage point in the 1940s.
Orwell, and this is especially clear in his essay The Lion and the Unicorn, believed the world was poised between two stark alternatives: the Socialist one, which he defined in terms of social justice, political liberty, equal rights, and global solidarity, and a Fascist or Bolshevist one, characterized by the increasingly brutal actions of the state in the name of caste, both domestically and internationally.
Because the time has come when one can predict the future in terms of an "either–or". Either we turn this war into a revolutionary war (I do not say that our policy will be EXACTLY what I have indicated above–merely that it will be along those general lines) or we lose it, and much more besides. Quite soon it will be possible to say definitely that our feet are set upon one path or the other. But at any rate it is certain that with our present social structure we cannot win. Our real forces, physical, moral or intellectual, cannot be mobilised.
It is almost impossible for those of us in the West who have been raised to believe that capitalist liberal democracy is the end of the line in terms of political evolution to remember that within the lifetimes of people still with us (such as my grandmother who tends her garden now in the same way she did in the 1940's) this whole system seemed to have been swept up into the dustbin of history and that the future lie elsewhere.
What the brilliance of Orwell missed, the penetrating insight of Aldous Huxley in his Brave New World caught: that a sufficiently prosperous society would lull it's citizens to sleep, and in doing so rob them both of the desire for revolutionary change and their very freedom.
As I have argued elsewhere, Huxley's prescience may depend on the kind of economic growth and general prosperity that was the norm after the Second World War. What worries me is that if the pessimists are proven correct, if we are in for an era of resource scarcity, and population pressures, stagnant economies, and chronic unemployment that Huxley's dystopia will give way to a more brutal Orwellian one.
This is why, no matter who wins the presidential election in November, we need to push back against the Orwellian features that have crept upon us since 9/11. The fact is we are almost unaware that we building the architecture for something truly dystopian and should pause to think before it is too late.
To return to the question of whether the new technologies help or hurt here: It is almost undeniable that all of the technological wonders that have emerged since 9/11 are good at treating the symptoms of social breakdown, both abroad and at home. They allow us to kill or capture persons who would harm largely innocent Americans, or catch violent or predatory criminals in our own country, state, and neighborhood. Where they fail is in getting to the actual root of the disease itself.
American would much better serve its foreign policy interest were it to better align itself with the public opinion of the outside world insofar as we were able to maintain our long term interests and continue to guarantee the safety of our allies. Much better than the kind of "information operation" supported by the US government to portray a corrupt, and now deposed, autocrat like Yemen's Abdullah Saleh as "an anti-corruption activist", would be actual assistance by the US and other advanced countries in…. I duknow… fighting corruption. Much better Western support for education and health in the Islamic world that the kinds of interference in the internal political development of post-revolutionary Islamic societies driven by geopolitical interest and practiced by the likes of Iran and Saudi Arabia.
This same logic applies inside the United States as well. It is time to radically roll back the Orwellian advances that have occurred since 9/11. The dangers of the war on terrorism were always that they would become like Orwell's "continuous warfare", and would perpetually exist in spite, rather than because of the level of threat. We are in danger of investing so much in our security architecture, bloated to a scale that dwarfs enemies, which we have blown up in our own imaginations into monstrous shadows, that we are failing to invest in the parts of our society that will actually keep us safe and prosperous over the long-term.
In Orwell's Oceania, the poor, the "proles" were largely ignored by the surveillance state. There is a danger here that with the movement of what were once advanced technologies into the hands of local law enforcement: drones, robots, biometric scanners, super-fast data crunching computers, geo-location technologies- that domestically we will move even further in the direction of treating the symptoms of social decay, rather than dealing with the underlying conditions that propel it.
The fact of the matter is that the very equality, "the early paradise", a product of democratic socialism and technology, Orwell thought was at our fingertips has retreated farther and farther from us. The reasons for this are multiple; To name just a few: financial concentration, automation, the end of "low hanging fruit" and their consequent high growth rates brought by industrialization,the crisis of complexity and the problem of ever more marginal returns. This retreat, if it lasts, would likely tip the balance from Huxley's stupification by consumption to Orwell's more brutal dystopia initiated by terrified elites attempting to keep a lid on things.
In a state of fear and panic we have blanketed the world with a sphere of surveillance, propaganda and covert violence at which Big Brother himself would be proud. This is shameful, and threatens not only to undermine our very real freedom, but to usher in a horribly dystopian world with some resemblance to the one outlined in Orwell's dark imaginings. We must return to the other path.

James Cross says:
The problem isn't just with government.
Corporations are also accumulating data about us. Our cell phones track our movements. Our credit cards our purchases. The web sites we visit are tracked. Several companies probably have data banks that rival those of the government in accumulation of personal information.
There is little or nothing to control that because the majority of it we willing opt into without even thinking about it.
And I doubt if the problems of analysis of Big Data will continue for long either. Most likely they have already been solved by the NSA.
Rick Searle says:
I think the government was trying to leverage what private sector companies already do in terms of "surveillance" with CISPA. We'll see where that goes.
Not sure if your NSA comment was meant to be tongue-n-cheek, but it seems to me at least plausible that the whole idea of Big Data is based on epistemological fallacies:
There's this idea that the goal should be to gather as much information as you possibly can (something that struck me when researching this piece is how much the government's efforts aim at being able to track terrorist down AFTER AN ATTACK.) A better goal would seem to be to identify legitimate threats out of the sea of white noise out there.
There's also this idea that if you gather enough information a picture of "reality" will emerge of itself. It's not clear to me that knowledge actually works like this. It seems to me that it is almost as important when it come to knowledge to know what to EXCLUDE as it is gather as much data as you can. Besides, data, without some narrative to put it together and turn it into actionable knowledge seems likely to result in paralysis- there are just too many variables to know what to do.
The NSA comment wasn't tongue-in-cheek.
I feel fairly certain they have figured out how to filter data by now. What emerges from this may not be "reality" but, putting aside the big epidemiological questions, I think they probably have enough hardware and software to narrow the data to where a human needs to look at it. It is probably not perfect but probably narrows the big data into manageable data.
I guess we'll never know because it's "top secret".
The real breakthrough for me would be 2 things:
1) That the NSA and intelligence gathering organizations more generally learn how to identify threats with out the massive violations of civil liberties created by essentially spying on everyone. If a spy agency, or for that any other government or private organization said that the only way it could be effective was to bug every home, poll every citizen, survey every customer: they would seem to me to be not only wasteful but doing a horrible job to boot. Smart information gathering expends minimum effort for maximum return.
2) We'll know whatever they've done has worked when they stop being blind-sided by huge political events and prone to intelligence failures: 9/11 itself, no WMDs in Iraq, the Arab Spring. Until then I will find the efforts of the NSA and other all the more tragic because they don't even work.

Thanks for another good post Rick.
I think the "right" to privacy is an interesting topic. I currently see privacy as an issue only when the entity doing the monitoring is not trustworthy. Take, for instance, the example of the Abrahamic God: by most accounts that I'm aware of, He has been described as all-seeing and all-knowing. People aren't concerned about our privacy from Him, because we trust Him. People think He is omni-benevolent; He has our best interests somewhere in His plan.
I think it's possible that we don't afford people that kind of trust because we know that people aren't all good. The same could be said of companies and governments. Do you think there is some inherent harm from the invasion of privacy, or is it only actually "bad" when that information is used against the people for malevolent purposes?
I don't think surveillance is inherently bad or that privacy is an inalienable right. It seems to me that surveillance and the associated technology are typically means rather than ends. So what should probably be judged is the ends to which the information is being gathered and the trustworthiness of the entity doing the gathering. Of course, governments and companies are rarely trustworthy, so having laws against them "invading privacy" is important in the current state of affairs. But that doesn't mean that there couldn't one day be a government, company or other entity that is trustworthy, and that should be given licence to surveil everyone.
I agree with you that much of what we have set up in terms of justice and counter-terrorism is treating symptoms rather than the underlying causes of social decay. I don't think that we will attain anything close to a utopia until all people are good as individuals. Of course, my belief of what values make a person and a society "good" could be just as subjective as any other person's belief. I guess you probably have some posts on your blog that spell out what you think are the underlying conditions resulting in the social decay and your preferred system of ethics and values. Could you tell me what you thoughts on these topics or point me towards any posts that cover these topics?
Hi Tobby,
I'll try to answer your question:
Do you think there is some inherent harm from the invasion of privacy, or is it only actually "bad" when that information is used against the people for malevolent purposes?
I suppose the answer to this question boils down to the definition of "malevolent". I take it you mean malevolent as in harm or exploitation, but I think both persons, governments, and corporations, at least in democracies, are rarely deliberately malevolent in this way. Rather, they honestly believe that what they are doing is for your benefit- though it just so happens to be to their benefit as well.
Step aside from government surveillance for a second and look at recent activities of a company like FaceBook. They recently launched an initiative to share their customers information with drug companies:
http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2012/09/can-facebook-possibly-build-a-business-model-that-isnt-inherently-creepy/262785/
Now, of course, FaceBook thinks they are doing you a service by sharing your information with drug companies and drug companies think their doing you a favor by giving you targeted ads based on your "profile", but its hard not to see the activities of both as self-interested. Advertisements are a form of manipulation more so than information- otherwise "ads" would just be a list of pros and cons along with comparative prices.
For me, the question relates to trust in that you trust someone, your spouse, you best friend, because you believe not so much that they will not harm you (the majority of people are not out to harm anyone), as they will take your own definition of what is good for you into full account, and not use their knowledge of you to pursue the end that THEY think is best for you. This kind of trust emerges only in the most intimate of relationships because each party holds the other as a fully formed human being. No government or corporation will ever or can ever do this because they themselves are not persons, and want, indeed need, you to do some things rather than others in order to properly function.
I think your example of God is interesting, but I doubt people who think their thoughts or actions likely condemn them to hell view God as "omni-benevolent".
Ultimately, I think part of our idea of an all-seeing God stems from our need to be truly known by someone. If persons can not find this in another human being they need to find it somewhere- despite any imagined consequences. Let's hope they never think they found this on FaceBook.

Q: Linked Lists && pass by reference Hi I am a beginner in C can you explain to me why I don't need call by reference when I insert a new node after the given prev_node ( I made changes to prev node I change the prev->next so I need call by reference)
but I need double-pointer when I insert a new node at the beginning or at the end of the list (Why only when I have the head as an argument I need call by reference )
/* Given a reference (pointer to pointer) to the head of a list and
           an int, inserts a new node on the front of the list. */
        void push(struct Node** head_ref, int new_data)
        {
            /* 1. allocate node */
            struct Node* new_node = (struct Node*) malloc(sizeof(struct Node));

            /* 2. put in the data  */
            new_node->data  = new_data;

            /* 3. Make next of new node as head */
            new_node->next = (*head_ref);

            /* 4. move the head to point to the new node */
            (*head_ref)    = new_node;
        }

        /* Given a reference (pointer to pointer) to the head
           of a list and an int, appends a new node at the end  */
        void append(struct Node** head_ref, int new_data)
        {
            /* 1. allocate node */
            struct Node* new_node = (struct Node*) malloc(sizeof(struct Node));

            struct Node *last = *head_ref;  /* used in step 5*/

            /* 2. put in the data  */
            new_node->data  = new_data;

            /* 3. This new node is going to be the last node, so make next of
                  it as NULL*/
            new_node->next = NULL;

            /* 4. If the Linked List is empty, then make the new node as head */
            if (*head_ref == NULL)
            {
               *head_ref = new_node;
               return;
            }

/* Given a node prev_node, insert a new node after the given
           prev_node */
        void insertAfter(struct Node* prev_node, int new_data)
        {
            /*1. check if the given prev_node is NULL */
            if (prev_node == NULL)
            {
              printf("the given previous node cannot be NULL");
              return;
            }

            /* 2. allocate new node */
            struct Node* new_node =(struct Node*) malloc(sizeof(struct Node));

            /* 3. put in the data  */
            new_node->data  = new_data;

            /* 4. Make next of new node as next of prev_node */
            new_node->next = prev_node->next;

            /* 5. move the next of prev_node as new_node */
            prev_node->next = new_node;
        }

A: push() and append() need to modify the Node* pointer itself that is being passed in. They are assigning the memory address of a new Node object to the passed Node*. Thus, you need to pass in that Node* by pointer so that the modification can be reflected back to the caller.  For example:
struct Node* head = NULL;
push(&head, 12345);
// head points at the new Node...

If the caller's Node* were passed by value instead, that Node* would not be updated, eg:
struct Node* head = NULL;
push(head, 12345);
// head is still NULL, and the new Node is leaked!

insertAfter() does not need to modify the Node* pointer itself that is being passed in. It modifies only the contents of the Node object that is being pointed at (specifically, the Node's next field).  The Node* pointer itself is not being changed to point at a different Node object, it will keep pointing at the same Node it started with, and thus it can be passed in by value.

A: You need to pass by reference an object that you are going to change it itself in a function. Otherwise the function will deal with a copy of the passed object.
In all your examples of functions you are passing an object that can be changed by reference.
In the functions push and append you are passing by reference the pointer to the head node that might be changed in the functions.
In the function insertAfter  you are passing by reference the object (data member) next of the current node
void insertAfter(struct Node* prev_node, int new_data)
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So dereferencing the pointer you can change the object next that is a data member of the pointed node
prev_node->next = new_node;

AUDIENCE REVIEW: Dare to Say: How NDT2 Approaches the Pandemic
Netherlands Dans Theater
Performance Date:
November 6,7,and 8 2020 (viewed on November 8th)
Freeform Review:
This program was available through a livestream link for these days at the cost of 15 pounds (roughly 18.50 USD) per show. It was not recorded for later viewing, but thankfully I was able to attend on the last day. The two works mentioned were Fusion and Some Confusions by Dimo Milev with assistance by Francesca Caroti, and Four Relations by Alexander Ekman with assistance by Spencer Dickhaus. Both were accompanied with live music by musicians of the Dutch Ballet Orchestra.
As the first piece Fusion and Some Confusions started, I felt an unwanted sense of familiarity as a square box was illuminated in the center of the stage. I have seen too many boxes in my time as a New York dance student in the pandemic. However, the dancers discovering, surrounding, and/or dancing within the box showed beautiful contrast between the feelings of uncertain rigidity one has in an undefined space and the confident and sometimes sensual fluidity a person can still have in structure. As the piece unfolded, the box began to shrink in size, becoming a problem once multiple sets of dancers had taken their claim to the stage. Yet, the cast was able to use the space so efficiently and elegantly between and through each other that you would not have known the set had been changed, even though you did just watch them maneuver the boxes themselves. Once the box reaches a size that could only fit the ball of one's foot, the dancers seamlessly revert back into states of confusion. It felt relatable in the sense that something that becomes familiar overtime can transform into another unapproachable obstacle. Job well done to Demi Bawon, Kenedy Kallas, Austin Meiteen, Kele Roberson, Ivo Matteus, and Bary Gans who were in the cast of my viewing day.
The second piece, Four Relations, was an intimate look on four different types of relationships. Interestingly, this piece is a rework of a piece called Maybe Two that was created in 2013 but could not be performed due to the pandemic. The use of narration and multiple camera angles made it seem as if the audience were on stage moving alongside the dancers. As we are taken through the four relationships, the cast theatrically performed their respective roles in ways that are expected of Netherlands Dans Theater dancers, technically and emotionally sound. I would like to bring attention to the last set of dancers who shed light on what I believe should be described as dependently manipulative relationships. As the dancers participated in weight sharing and contact initiated movement while being supported by chairs, they also displayed feelings of comfortability despite handling each other quite roughly at times. I would say out of the four couples, I felt this one was the realest. The dancers truly showed their trust and support for each other, something very much necessary for relationships, making this section of the piece attention-grasping yet conceptually simple enough to end the program. This program was a great way to connect with worldly relations after being constricted to either a box or a bedroom. Along with the dancers listed above, I would also like to acknowledge Jordan Pelliteri, Mikaela Kelly, Nick Daniels, and Jesse Callaert.

Edit: How come in the USHI screen shots for TOT you can see some harvest sprites walking around your farm?
Also you can obviously see the horse with its sattle on but your not on it !!?
I can't give you a definite answer, but I would guess that those are very early screenshots from before all the details of the game had been finalized. Things are bound to have changed a lot from the first draft of the game.
It makes alot of sense. You can see In 1 of the pics your kid helping you out, she is watering the platns.
I updated the Flower section to include information about honey and included the honey prices in the price list.
besides a brief section on animal pregnancy and more information in the fishing section, is there anything big that I'm missing as far as information goes?
Ok, so my B day passed in the game and I wasn't Congratulated by my wife?????!
But everyone else said Happy B day to me :D still why? I asked at home in the morning and at night but I don't remember if I asked when they were out.
I think you have to enter the house after 6pm (or maybe once your spouse has returned).
there should be a little feast during your birthday. you don't lose any time, but it's not an automatic festival (you have to trigger it by doing something, it won't just trigger if you're anywhere on the island).
I entered my house like 20 times after 6pm I think. but ok I guess I will just wait another year.
no, it doesn't need the 3x3 squares to be hoed.
fruit will drop around the tree.
Okies, so it just needs the SPACE of a 3x3 square. Gotcha. Thanks.
I was wondering if you knew where I can find Chase I can't find him anywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I keep looking in Yolonda's house and he's not there or at the Sundae Inn!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????????
Has he actually moved in yet? He will move in about a season after you complete Darren's rainbow recipe and you'll meet him in the Sundae in.
no, after you marry someone who has their own house, boxes will appear and you can no longer enter it (I've heard).
That sounds awful! Ok I have another question.
What can I fish in the "Secret Cave", I've tried to fish with my Lv.4 rod or was it Lv.3? anyways I couldn't catch anything, not even a nibble... why?? can you catch anything there??
EDIT!!!:: If you buy another land can you build another stable/coop/house there?
If you can , can you do it with all the lands?
Woah. Okey then,reply to me if you want to talk about ToT. Awesome Game! I'm marrying Renee, just saying... I'll be waiting.
