Last night, as is no surprise to regular readers of this blog, I gave the presentation at the Raleigh.rb meetup.
I thought it went well: the crowd was receptive, especially given it was a non-technical talk for a technical audience. Never sure how people will react to that.
Matthew Bass has updated the Raleigh.rb page with the slides from the talk in PDF format and under the Podcast section of the page you can find audio. Below I've embedded the slides from Slideshare, as well as a link to the slides as a PDF and included a link to the audio file. It should be easy enough for you to follow along at home if you so desire.
View more presentations from markmzyk.
After the talk there was plenty discussion and I solicited opinions of the talk. Talks are rarely perfect, but sometimes it is difficult to get people to offer criticism. After some questioning, I received several critiques I've very glad to have received.
All of these are very valid points that I, as the presenter, wouldn't have noticed. Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback, as it will help me make the talk stronger in the future.
Please look over the slides and take a listen to the audio and let me know what you think. While I realize it won't be the same as watching the talk live, the change in format means you might find something I can improve that got overlooked while the talk was given live.
Also, if you have any examples of great self marketing (from individuals or small companies) let me know in the comments: your examples might make it into a future version of the talk.
Thanks to everyone who came to the talk – I appreciated you being there and hope you learned something from it.

Cyanobacteria Closes in On Algae for Fuel Production
September 28, 2012 | 1 Comment
Arizona State University scientists have developed a new method that relies on heat to improve the yield and lower the costs of high-energy biofuels production from cyanobacteria. ASU has also been at the forefront of algae research for renewable energy production.
ASU has run a dual role since 2007 with support from federal, state and industry funding with both algae and cyanobacteria research.
ASU has run several projects that utilize the photosynthetic cyanobacteria microbes as a potential new source of renewable, carbon-neutral fuels. Efforts have focused on developing cyanobacteria as a feedstock for biodiesel production, as well as benchtop and large-scale photobioreactors to optimize growth and production.
Cyanobacteria are like plants, dependent upon renewable ingredients including sunlight, carbon dioxide and water that, through genetic engineering, can be altered to favor biodiesel production. Cyanobacteria offer attractive advantages over the use of plants like corn or switchgrass, producing many times the energy yield with energy input from the sun and without the necessity of taking arable cropland out of production.
Roy Curtiss and Xinyao Liu Examine Lab Samples. Click image for the largest view.
Roy Curtiss, director of the Biodesign Institute's Centers for Infectious Diseases and Vaccinology and Microbial Genetic Engineering as well as professor in the School of Life Sciences and colleague Xinyao Liu have spent the last few years modifying the cyanobacteria. Their goal is to bypass costly processing steps (such as cell disruption, filtration) for optimal cyanobacterial biofuel production.
Cyanobacteria Lab Samples. Click image for more info.
Curtiss explains the background, "We wanted to develop strains of cyanobacteria that basically can process themselves. A couple of years ago, we developed a Green Recovery process that is triggered by removing carbon dioxide to control the synthesis of enzymes, called lipases, that degrade the cell membranes and release the microbes' precious cargo of free fatty acids that can be converted to biofuels."
However, when growth of cyanobacteria is scaled up to meet industrial needs they become dense, and the self-shading that occurs in concentrated cultures doesn't let in enough light to produce enough of the lipases to efficiently drive the process. Thus the original Green Recovery was light dependent and maximally efficient at sub-optimal culture densities.
"We keep trying to reach ever deeper into our genetic bag of tricks and optimize bacterial metabolic engineering to develop an economically viable, truly green route for biofuel production," said Curtiss.
The team looked again at nature to improve their Green Recovery method. The new process uses enzymes found in nature called thermostable lipases synthesized by thermophilic organisms that grow at high temperatures such as in hot springs. These thermostable lipases break down fats and membrane lipids into the fatty acid biodiesel precursors, but only at high temperatures. The study results have been published in the online version of the Journal of Biotechnology.
The team's new process, called thermorecovery, uses a heat-triggered, self-destruct system. By taking a culture and shifting to a higher temperature, the lipases are called into action. This process occurs with concentrated cultures in the dark under conditions that would be very favorable for an industrial process.
The team tested a total of 7 different lipases from microbes that thrive in hot springs under very high temperatures, a scorching 60-70º C (158º F). The research team swapped each lipase gene into a cyanobacteria strain that grows normally at 30º C (86º F) and tested the new strains.
They found the Fnl lipase from Feridobacterium nodosum, an extremophile found in the hot springs of New Zealand, released the most fatty acids. The highest yield occurred when the carbon dioxide was removed from the cells for one day (to turn on the genes making the lipases), and then treated at 46º C (114º F) for two days (for maximum lipase activity).
Are you sitting down? The yield was 15% higher than the Green Recovery method, and because there were less reagents used, time (one day for thermorecovery vs. one week for Green Recovery) and space for the recovery. Thermorecovery resulted in an estimated 80% cost savings.
On top of all that, in a continuous semi-batch production experiment, the team showed that daily harvested culture releases could release a high level of fatty acid and the productivity could last for at least 20 days. Plus, the water critical to growing the cultures could be recycled to maintain the growth of the original culture.
Curtiss winds up the news with academic understatement, "Our latest results are encouraging and we are confident of making further improvements to achieve enhanced productivity in strains currently under construction and development. In addition, optimizing growth conditions associated with scale-up will also improve productivity.
Curtiss has been at this a while. He's a microbiologist who uses genetic engineering of bacteria to develop new vaccines. Cyanobacteria like algae is a single cell organism, but is a very different critter from a metabolism point of view. The potential hasn't garnered the attention that algae has, yet cyanobacteria may prove to be much superior.
The yield improvement is a pleasant surprise, but that cost cutting is astonishing, especially when one recalls the cyanobacteria will be releasing ready to process fuel and chemical precursors.

This past weekend we witnessed the country at its worst. We saw images of racist, violent protests rivaling the 1960s. And while we espouse that there's no place for this in America, we must accept that this behavior is a reality in America. But it doesn't have to be. The white nationalists and neo-Nazis who took to the streets to spread hatred, intolerance and anger are examples of the insidious racism and xenophobia pervading the country. Most of us condemn these most obvious displays of hatred, but racism often doesn't announce itself so clearly.
Structural inequalities and implicit biases work quietly against people of color daily – particularly young people who have their promise and potential stripped from them. While numerous leaders in our country have spoken up against the actions, true course correction requires more than denouncing a singular display of bigotry. It requires those who speak to us and for us to dismantle the systems that have allowed this kind of hate and intolerance to breed. It's up to all of us to hold our political and cultural leaders accountable, and for each and every one of us to be part of the solution.

Play says 'No' to violence against LGBT
June 19, 2019 | 12:07 am
IN RECENT weeks, a photo of the bloodied faces of Melania Gaymonat and her girlfriend Chris went viral online. While on a bus ride in the early hours of May 30 in London, the women were attacked by a group of young men for refusing their demand to kiss each other. "They started beating me, I was bleeding all over — I was really bleeding," Ms. Gaymonat told BBCWorldatOne. According to a report by The Guardian on June 8, a fifth arrest has been made in connection with the attack.
In the continuing fight for LGBT rights and the legalization of same sex unions, homophobic violence and abuse persists. And it has to stop.
As an examination of hate crimes and their effect on its victims, Positive Space, MusicArtes, and New Voice Company will present Diana Son's Stop Kiss in July for a limited run at the Power Mac Center Spotlight, Circuit Makati City.
Directed by Gawad Buhay and Aliw Award-winning director and designer Ed Lacson, Jr., the play is set in New York City and follows traffic reporter Callie who is comfortable with her routine at work and occasionally joins her like-minded friends. Callie then meets Sara who has just arrived in the city to teach. The strength of their relationship is challenged after the ladies share their first kiss at NYC's West Village late one evening and a bystander viciously attacks them.
First staged in the Philippines by New Voice Company in 2003, the play returns with the same lead actors who switch roles this time around.
"I brought up the idea of switching roles," said Jenny Jamora who plays Sara, at a press conference on June 17 at Pineapple Lab in Makati City. "I [also] wanted to get to know [the character of] Sara and it was an interesting process to come in, knowing nothing again."
"Sara is so close to my heart," said Missy Maramara, who now plays Callie, on how she reacted to the idea of switching roles. "When I'm scared of something, that's when I know I should do it."
Stop Kiss was first produced off-broadway in 1998 at The Public Theater in New York City. The play won the GLAAD (Gay Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) Media Award for Best New York Production the following year.
"We are saturated with with scripts that are focused on gay relationships. If you go back two to three years, there are many showcases on gay relationship," the director, Mr. Lacson, said in a mixture of English and Filipino, of limited representation of lesbian relationships in theater.
"We lack plays like this in the community. I hope there are more writers who would write about this," he added.
Joining the cast are Gabe Mercado as Sarah's ex-boyfriend Peter; Robbie Guevara as Detective Cole who is assigned to Callie and Sarah's case; Jay Valencia-Glorioso as Mrs. Winsley, the lone witness to the attack; and J-mee Katanyag as Sara's nurse.
"Everyone has a right to just find someone they can love. You've [got to] fight for that right. If you feel that you can go out and love someone, then why are you denying anyone else that right?," said Tarkek El Tayech, who plays George, Callie's "friend with benefits."
"This is just another way for this play to show people all sorts of love and it's all just the same. Love is love," he said.
As the playwright's message about writing the story goes: "Because unquestionably the last beat of the play is: love wins."
Stop Kiss will have performances on July 12 to 14 and July 19 to 21 at the Power Mac Center Spotlight, Circuit Makati City. Tickets available at www.ticket2me.net/e/2445/stop-kiss. For inquiries and show buying, contact Camille Abaya at 0915-835-9210, or e-mail stopkiss2018@gmail.com. — Michelle Anne P. Soliman

March 15: Hungary's national holiday commemorating the outbreak of the 1848 revolution against Habsburg rule.
Always a lot of street politics on this date, especially this year with the general election just over three weeks away.
Orange Files covered simultaneous events in Budapest on this day: the Civil Cooperation Forum (CÖF)–organized pro–Orbán government Peace March (Békemenet) and the Hungarian Two-Tailed Dog Party (Kétfarkú Kutya Párt, or MKKP)–organized anti–Orbán government Peace March.

Above are Orange Files photos of the two main 2018 election campaign signs (click to enlarge) of the Viktor Orbán–led government of Hungary and Fidesz political party. They currently appear in large number on billboards, advertising columns and bus-stop shelters throughout Budapest (and presumably all of Hungary).
The sign at left is that of the government of Hungary. It reads:
The UN wants us to continuously receive immigrants.

Scenes from the Jobbik Demonstration
December 19, 2017 By Orange Files in Jobbik Leave a comment
Arriving to Heroes' Square on a rainy winter night: about 2,000 people, many of the same bad faces (rossz arcok) as at Jobbik demonstrations in the old days, though with the baddest faces now gone; the same old party flags with the double cross emerging from some kind of red-lidded green eyeball, though the neo-Hungarist Árpád-striped flags that used to be so many now nowhere to be seen; national rock thundering from amplifiers on the speaker's platform, though no longer the bellicose Kárpátia mantras, but something milder, less aggressive, less threatening.
Very few cops in sight, though just 50 yards from Fidesz party headquarters, unlike the old days when there were hundreds in full riot gear.
This is the new Jobbik, the "people's party."

Terry Black (Facebook profile photo).
On November 10, 2016, the Andy Vajna-owned, pro-government TV2 television station broadcast a report entitled "Gábor Vona's Secret Life" [Vona Gábor titkos élete] in which transgender performer and former gay adult-film actor Terry Black (Mihály Rácz) alleged that he had seen the president of the radical-nationalist Jobbik party engaging in homosexual acts at gatherings of Hungarian intellectuals in the early 2000s (source A and B in Hungarian).
The pro-government commercial media, including Origo.hu, PestiSrácok.hu, ripost.hu and the Árpád Habony-operated lokál.hu, carried the TV2 report, which was broadcast just two days after Jobbik National Assembly representatives had followed through with their threat not to support the government-sponsored proposed amendment to the Fundamental Law that would have prevented the European Union from resettling Middle Eastern and African refugees in Hungary if government "residency-bonds" were not first eliminated (see Updated: Amendments to the Fundamental Law and The Hungarian Investment Immigration Program).

November 15, 2016 By Orange Files in Orbán, Trump 1 Comment
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán enthusiastically welcomed the election of Donald Trump to serve as the next president of the United States. Below are five statements that Prime Minister Orbán made regarding Trump's November 8 election victory.
"Congratulations. What a great news. Democracy is still alive." November 9, 2016 (source in English).
"What has happened is that reality has broken through the ideology. We are moving back to reality, which means [respecting] the views of real people and what they think, how they approach these questions – not to educate them, but accept them as they are, because they are the basis of democracy." November 9, 2016 (source in English).
"It's not my idea. It's not an élite-launched political movement. It's going on in the minds of the people, because they don't like what we're living in now—that kind of liberal non-democracy system." November 9, 2016 (source in English).
"Now this [escape from ideological captivity] has happened in the United States and this gives the rest of the Western world the opportunity to break away from ideologies, from political correctness and the captivity of ways of thinking and speaking that have distanced themselves from the truth and finally we are returning to the ground of realities." November 9, 2016 (source in Hungarian).
"The world will be a better place with the new American president, we have a good chance of this." November 11, 2016 (source in Hungarian).

The Demise of People's Freedom
October 10, 2016 By Orange Files in media Leave a comment
Final issue of Népszabadság (photo: mandiner.hu).
On October 8, 2016, Mediaworks Hungary, the owner of the influential opposition print and online newspaper Népszabadság (People['s] Freedom), announced unexpectedly that it had suspended publication of the newspaper effective immediately.
The Vienna Capital Partners-owned Mediaworks Hungary attributed the decision to discontinue publication of the newspaper to the fact that "The circulation of Népszabadság has fallen 74 percent over the past ten years, that is, by over 100,000 copies [per day]. As a consequence, the newspaper has generated losses of more than five billion forints since 2007 and has likewise accrued significant losses this year" (source in Hungarian).
However, referring to the previously rumored attempt of pro-government business interests close to oligarch Lőrinc Mészáros (source in Hungarian) to acquire Mediaworks Hungary, the editors of Népszabadság published the following post on the newspaper's Facebook page after receiving notification via motorcycle courier that they had been "exempted from their obligation to perform work" for the newspaper (source in Hungarian):
Dear Followers! The editors of Népszabadság learned at the same time as the general public that the newspaper has been shut down with immediate effect. Our first thought is that this is a putsch. We will be in contact soon.

Below are screenshots taken from programs broadcast on the M1 news channel of state-run Hungarian Television from 3:00 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. on October 2, 2016—that is, until half an hour before the closing of polls in Hungary's referendum on European Union migrant-resettlement quotas (see Hungary's 2016 Referendum on European Union Migrant Resettlement Quotas and The Referendum That Couldn't Fail).
Aside from intermittent weather bulletins and a report on the new leadership of the U.K. Labour Party, newscasts and programs broadcast on M1 during this three-and-a-half-hour period dealt with just two issues—the referendum results and migration.
The screenshots are from the various reports on migration. Note that in 2013, the National Assembly approved an amendment to Hungary's electoral laws that eliminated campaign silence (source in Hungarian).

The Referendum That Couldn't Fail
October 3, 2016 By Orange Files in 2016 migrant-quota referendum, European migrant crisis, European Union Leave a comment
In February 2016, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán initiated a referendum in Hungary asking voters to respond to the following question (source in Hungarian):
Do you want the European Union to be able to mandate the obligatory settlement of non-Hungarian citizens in Hungary even without the approval of the [Hungarian] National Assembly?
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán speaks to supporters following the referendum on the European Union migrant-resettlement quota (photo: index.hu).
This question refers specifically to the resettlement of 1,294 Syrian, Iraqi and Eritrean refugees from Italy and Greece to Hungary as part of a European Union plan adopted in September 2015 (see 2016 Referendum on European Union Migrant Resettlement Quotas).
The result of the referendum in terms of approval or rejection of the European Union migrant-resettlement quota for Hungary was never in doubt: opinion polls consistently showed that the number of voters who rejected the quota was many times larger than the number of voters who accepted it (see "Opinion Polls" section of the relevant Wikipedia article).
The only question was: would voter turnout exceed the 50-percent threshold required for the referendum to be considered legally valid?
Hungary's 2016 Referendum on European Union Migrant Resettlement Quotas
September 11, 2016 By Orange Files in 2016 migrant-quota referendum, European migrant crisis Leave a comment
Official name: Referendum against Compulsory Resettlement (Népszavazás a kényszerbetelepítés ellen).
Date: October 2, 2016.
Question: Do you want the European Union to be able to mandate the obligatory settlement of non-Hungarian citizens in Hungary even without the approval of the [Hungarian] National Assembly? (Akarja-e, hogy az Európai Unió az Országgyűlés hozzájárulása nélkül is előírhassa nem magyar állampolgárok Magyarországra történő kötelező betelepítésé?)
Issue: The resettlement of 1,294 Syrian, Iraqi and Eritrean refugees from Italy (306 refugees) and Greece (988 refugees) to Hungary as part of a European Union plan adopted in September 2015 to transfer 120,000 such refugees from Italy and Greece to other EU member states over the subsequent two years (source in English).
Orbán government position: Rejects mandatory resettlement quotas.
Röszke—One Year Later
September 5, 2016 By Orange Files in European migrant crisis Leave a comment
Migrants enter Hungary via defunct railway in September 2015 (photo: Orange Files).
Tens of thousands of migrants passed along the defunct railway from Serbia into Hungary near the village of Röszke on their way to Western Europe during the summer and early fall of 2015 before the Orbán government closed this final gap in the border on September 15 (see The Fields Are Speaking Pashto and The Curtain Falls Again).
Now, in early September 2016: vegetation has engulfed the rails and the thick trail of discarded belongings and refuse that the migrants left behind them. There is no visible evidence of the mass movement of people that took place along these tracks just one year ago.


February 15, 2012 — Vessix Vascular Inc., developer of a novel percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) balloon catheter technology, announced that it will make its first detailed public presentation of preclinical data relating to its new V2 Renal Denervation System on Saturday, Feb. 18, 2012 at the TRenD Workshop 2012, in Frankfurt, Germany.
The presentation, titled "Percutaneous RF balloon-mediated renal denervation in under a minute: The V2 System by Vessix," will be made by James R. Margolis, M.D., during a session focused on emerging technologies for renal denervation.
Renal denervation is a percutaneous, catheter-based approach that disrupts renal sympathetic nerves whose hyperactivity leads to uncontrolled high blood pressure.
Margolis commented, "Vessix's pre-clinical data is the most robust I have seen in the field of renal denervation for hypertension. The data provides significant angiographic and histological evidence of safety and also effectiveness in reducing kidney norepinephrine levels – a surrogate for reduction of blood pressure in humans. The Vessix RF balloon catheter technology promises to place a very familiar tool in the hands of interventionalists and allow therapy to be safely delivered in seconds. I look forward to seeing the results of the upcoming multi-center international clinical study set to begin in Europe later this month."
Vessix's V2 Renal Denervation System for the treatment of drug resistant hypertension is an over the wire balloon catheter with electrodes mounted on the exterior of the balloon to facilitate the delivery of RF inside the renal artery. The patented catheter connects to a proprietary low power bipolar RF generator. After inflation in the artery, the balloon catheter's RF energy is activated for 30 seconds resulting in the disruption of the renal nerves located in the adventitia that surround the renal artery.

Private sector businesses hit record level
Official figures released today (Wednesday) show that the number of private sector businesses in the UK increased significantly to 4.8 million at the start of 2012 — a record high.
This is an increase on last year's figures, which showed there were 4.5 million businesses in the UK at the start of 2011.
The statistics, published by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, also show:
- The 4.8 million private sector businesses employed an estimated 23.9 million people and had an estimated turnover of £3,100 billion
- Of the 4.8 million private sector businesses, 99.9 per cent of them were small and medium sized enterprises.
- Small to medium sized enterprises (SMEs) also account for 59.2 per cent of private sector employment and 48.8 per cent of private sector turnover.
"Today's figures show that we now have a record number of private sector businesses in the UK. We have always said that private sector is central to healing and rebalancing our economy and this increase is another encouraging sign," Business Minister Michael Fallon said.
"We know that our entrepreneurs drive growth, so we will continue to do everything we can to help unleash and unlock entrepreneurs' potential. The additional tax relief for angel investment, reforms to employment law, investment in business mentoring and further cuts in red tape are just some of the actions government is taking to create a better business environment."

Scientific Models Demonstrate Recovery of a Reef Fish in Two South African MPAs
Photo copyright Wilhelm van Zyl
Along the southern coast of South Africa, great white sharks perform mesmerizing acrobatic feats in the hopes of snagging a tasty sea lion for dinner. But beneath the waves, less aggressive fish flit from one rocky reef to the next. Artisanal fishers still catch many of these species using handlines, one of the oldest forms of fishing technology. The Red Roman, whose scientific name Chrysoblephus laticeps means "golden-eyed broad head", was one of the 10 most important species in the South African handline fishery and is now considered a "collapsed" fishery. The abundance of this brightly colored red-orange fish has declined so much that it is no longer economically worthwhile to fish for it.
Using powerful new computer models, South African scientists simulated how this species would respond to protection over time. They looked at two rocky reef MPAs; the Castle Rock MPA and the Goukamma MPA, which is 8 times larger. The computer models account for individual variation in size and behavior to predict how the species will fare inside and outside of these protected areas. The Red Roman is an interesting species to study because it changes sex over time, switching from female to male around 7 years of age. This obviously affects recovery since fishing tends to target larger individuals, often skewing sex ratios and leading to sperm limitation.
The models clearly demonstrate the toll fishing can take on Red Roman populations. After less than a decade of fishing, fish density declined to less than half of its original level. More importantly, the models showed that male and female Red Romans respond differently to protection within each of the MPAs, and that the larger Goukamma MPA resulted in more complete recovery than the smaller MPA at Castle Rock. Female fish recovered quickly, but the abundance of male fish increased more slowly and did not reach pre-fishing levels. This sex-specific response to the fishing mortality also affected the sex ratio of females to males. Prior to fishing, females were more abundant than males, but this discrepancy doubled after the onset of fishing. Fishing therefore created an unbalanced population that, without protection, might not have been able to persist.
Many reef fishes change sex during their lifetime, and these fascinating changes can have profound implications on how well protection strategies work. This South African study highlights the importance of considering how different sexes contribute to recovery, and suggests that it will take time for males to rebound from heavy fishing pressure. Young Red Roman are all female, and it will take at least 7 years to produce older males capable of contributing to the next generation. At least for some species, fully realizing the benefits of protection within an MPA will take time. Sex matters, but in this case size matters as well. There was clear evidence that the larger MPA performed better in the long term, suggesting that where possible larger MPAs can offer greater opportunities for recovery.

'The Goonies' House Up For Sale – $1.65M – Take a Look
JayCee Published: December 6, 2022
via Zillow
It's a picturesque home in Astoria, Oregon, that sits on a bluff overlooking the Columbia River. At one time, this house contained a map that led a group of kids on a grand adventure to a hidden treasure.
Okay, so maybe it was a house used in the filming of a movie once, and the whole treasure map thing was part of the plot.
The "Goonies House" has hit the market for a cool $1.65 million.
I am sure that some people will want to take a look at this listing purely for nostalgia - as it was featured in a fairly popular movie. Others will, according to the Zillow listing, recognize the craftsmanship that went into building the home.
Warner Bros. Pictures' 'The Goonies'
According to the listing, the home is over 125 years old, having been built in 1896. It is a 3-bedroom, 3-bath home, weighing in at 2,336 square feet, and it is beautiful.
This home will come with an added feature: gawkers.
Since "The Goonies" was so popular, fans of the movie still show up to get a glimpse of the house. Many people have posed in front of the home for pictures and, up until a few years ago, some lucky fans were even invited inside.
Goonies Movie Poster
Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.
The homeowner at the time was pretty good about allowing fans to mill about the property to take those photos, but the homeowner's attitude changed when people began to disrespect the property.
Back in 2015, the homeowner shut down visits inside the home and even went as far as discouraging photos of the home by hanging huge tarps to block the view from the public right-of-way.
The homeowners even petitioned the local government to shut down the roadway to prevent non-residents from getting close to the home, but all the city could do was to erect a sign saying the home was closed, according to the story.
I do not know if the current sellers are the same homeowners who used to allow visitors inside, but it seems they were cordial for several years before crowds became too much for them.
Anyway, if you can handle a few gawkers on the street outside (according to this story, crowds would swell to hundreds on summer days), this may be your dream home!
(I wouldn't recommend ripping up the walls or floorboards looking for treasure maps, though.)
There's an awesome "attic" bedroom with a trap door entrance (it's actually an attic access ladder, but "trap door" sound better), the views from the front porch and a few of the rooms are awesome, and the grass gets really green in the summer.
The final photo is the layout/blueprint of the house.
Check out the house in the photos below.

| Why you should hire a designer.
Why you should hire a designer.
Designers can offer your business a look that is professional and respected.
As designers a lot of us are great at what we do and we take a lot of pride in everything we create. We'll even go so far as to post new artwork on the fridge looking for feedback (look at my drawing, look at my drawing… doooo it). In spite of mentally striving to be the best, we must deal with a lot of misconceptions as to why a business doesn't feel the need to use a graphic designer.
These are my thoughts; which are tailored to entrepreneurs that are skipping this process to save money and why they should never do a job that professional can do 1000 times better.
As a small business, keeping low overhead costs down is fundamental. This is normal for every small business unless you've found an Angel Investor or a superb funding for your business. As a business owner you are looking to cut costs, I get that. The part of the business budget that seems expendable is graphic and web development; I have come across an obscene amount of business cards that have been made on a desktop printers, with comic sans, different colours and worst of all it's printed on tear.away.paper.
As a small business owner, I know you have hopes of presenting your business in great as a great light you see in it your eyes. Unfortunately, just as many entrepreneurs are having to do. You are doing everything yourself in hopes of saving or cutting costs anywhere.
Let's Talk About Business Cards.
I'll explain how a graphic designer is trained in creating a business card that will get your clients attention.
Graphic designers are able to digest information very fast and (mentally) quickly form a set plan of how it should appear. Many of us not only have the natural ability to do it, but years of training and countless books on how to do such tasks to back us up.
It's not a matter of choosing the first font, a couple of colours and adding the information provided. Graphic designers look at the whole scope of a business (or at least they should be). We think of,"Ok, this is construction business specializing in roofing…. so having thin fonts are out of the question. It has to be a big bold font so clients and their employees can easily read the card fast. Then we think of the demographics of whom this is really for. For instance, if your business is a senior health service, you can't use tiny, thin, hard-to-see fonts you would frustrate your clients very quickly and they would have to read out their card ever time.
This will hurt only your business in the long run; having tear away cards that are poorly formatted with ink smears and a load of information put on to the card is the LAST thing you should hand out to people.
We strategically build every design tailored with your requests, keeping it easy on the eyes; which is why hiring a graphic designer will avoid looking very unprofessional.
In today's modern society everyone is on the internet, has a cell phone and is signed up with one or more social media websites. So, a lot of companies are jumping on board to stay current and understand their clientele much more in-depthly. During the dot.com boom, businesses jumped at having a website created, then they left it… for years.
You as a small business owner shouldn't fall into the category of a.) Having no website, b.) Having a poorly laid out website, c.) A website that it's functional, but doesn't work other devices.
You, as a small business owner, must understand that it's the smallest of things (especially on the internet) that will irk customers. If you qualify for 1 or all of those categories, guaranteed you've lost a lot of customers without even realizing it. A loss of potential profit is not acceptable in the business world and should be your biggest concern.
That's why you should look for a web designer that has a great portfolio, can educate you on the terms of what your website should have, is honest about what should be included and most of all, is passionate about what they do. Web designers eat, sleep and breathe web design from the front-end of the website ( how the website looks) to the back-end (how the website actually runs). There are many great web designers out there itching to get your website looking great and aren't expensive. If you would invest $10,000 – $25,000 on a vehicle to get to point a to point b, then why wouldn't you invest $1000 – $5000 (the bare minimum) in a website that will bring in business, show profit and gain customers satisfaction.
When you think of graphic and web design what is it that you think of? Is it something you know nothing about? Do you feel that only established business can afford, you don't know anyone who can provide this service or does it come right down to, "I don't think I can afford it for my business." Your business deserves to be successful and it's entirely up to you at how successful you wish it to be. In order to be successful you have to think and appear successful. This is why investing in quality graphic & web design is key; our aim as professional designers is to make you look (and at the same time make ourselves look good). Like I said earlier, our reputation is attached to each design we create; a good designer will never drop a bad design in your lap, ever.
If you're worried about not knowing anyone who can provide a service do a Google search, ask around, look in the phone book, look to graphic design school and support greenhorn designers.
If you want your company to appear professional, then invest in having a professional image created. It only takes 10 seconds for an individual to form an opinion based on what they see. You may have an excellent product or service, but if the image doesn't reflect the quality of the product then you've lost respect and professionalism in the time it takes to snap your fingers.
If you are looking for professional design services, contact Inkedkoi Designs today about your project.


Recently one of my external hdds failed.
So I'm attempting to use ddrescue to image the failing drive.
I'm a total newb with linux.. but following a guide I booted it and ran gddrescue. I did a test first, just to get my feet wet. I successfully imaged a 4gb usb stick. Then it was time for the real deal: the failed drive.
I connected both the failed drive and an empty one. Inputted the same command as before, but this time nothing seems to be happening. All the variables like time, amount of data copied etc, remain at 0.
I guess the drive is just unreadable?
Sounds like the drive is FUBAR. Modern drives have spare disc sectors to replace failing ones, but after some number, the drive will start to fail, quickly. There is a drive tool called SMART integrated into the on-disc controller that your system disc utility can access and read. It will tell you just how bad the drive is failing.

hessian(f(x,y),[x,y]);
ev(%,x=2,y=3);
gives me the Hessian at the point -
however,
mymatrix:=%
leads to the same error as above.
(In fact I don´t need the matrix itself but the inverse & the Jacobian as well for gradient descents - but I think, once I´ve one of them I´ll manage the rest too ...)
Apologies if the question has already been posed - I did not succeed to find anything helpful - will be grateful for every response!
Christoph

A: := is for defining functions. : is for assigning to a variable. I think you want mymatrix : <some expression>;

1.5 years of cat blogging not paying… what to do?
Happy Anniversary to me! I wasted tons of time trying to entertain you while learning a new skill and now it is clear that you are not entertained and you most likely did not learn anything either. That's probably because most of you don't know I exist. This is my fault because I can't obtain any traffic to this site no matter what I do. For this reason I am going to seek employment driving a Swift Truck. If you're not too swift as a cat blogger, you might as well be a Swift Truck driver. Nafsht.
Trucking pays great money. If you ever want employment and find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile, you will do better than most. It can work for you… trust me. My uncle Noel is a retired truck driver and he has all kinds of cash. Problem with this cat right here is that he don't have a motherf*cking driver's license, so there's no choice but to get busy cat blogging.
Cats in rabbit suits are not unique, but this joke with this meme pic is.
So what else is going on in cat blog world besides me not getting paid? I couldn't tell you. That's because I don't have the time or money to find out. I've had a donation button up on my site since it's inception and nobody contributed. I use emoticons on my 20+ tweets and tried to get a sponsorship from the site I get them from.
I could tell you which emoticon site it is, but why give them free press? They need to pay to get mentioned here. BTW, if anyone tries to steal my material, I"m going to sue them. So hit that donation button on the top right and pay me. Then come back in a week for more jokes that are free. After you get your free laugh, pay me. Aside from money, I want you to share what's here with everyone you know so that I can be even more successful. Last thing anyone wants to do is post research results around the web for free and to add insult to injury, get zero likes on top it. So do the right thing and pay me while sharing this about. Peace.
This could not possibly be the best joke ever made, but I think the guys at South Park are making a mockery of the fact that if you google "greatest joke of all time", you'll get similar mediocre, or lame, immature jokes of this caliber.
People like this fish sticks joke and it starts going viral to the point that the South Park kids are on late night TV and what have you. Problem is, Kanye West does not get the joke and he starts making people pay via the use of physical violence and even murder.
Kanye does not find it fair that he doesn't get the joke being that he is one of the greatest thinkers of his generation. His unchecked arrogance is brilliantly ridiculed by the writers and producers of one of the longest running cartoons in the history of mankind.
As a comedy cat blogger, I am hoping people will look at that image, laugh, pass it on, and click on this here website. This site just wants to be loved, is that so wrong? Maybe Kanye will sue me. That would probably be much funnier than the fish stick joke being that i have no attachable assets for his lawyers to take off me.
If I had gotten a bank loan six years ago, I could've been famous for being a NINJA.
So sue me. I'll laugh (but not all the way to the bank). Maybe they should sue Wikipedia for breaking it down even more in this article. They talk about how after Kanye got drunk and interrupted Taylor Swift's VMA moment.
Enough already — The Kanye Cat picture is hitting cyberspace… MEOW IS NOW!!!
cats beating children while parents film has people of the interweb demanding justice.
A recent Huffington Post article shows tons of videos of lol cats attacking defenseless, innocent toddlers. Parents seeking fame and recognition in most cases refuse to intervene, allowing their children to be assaulted.
The curtain of laughter is most often the method used for these neglectful parents to live with their own behavior. The fact that they film the incidents only adds insult to injury. It's one thing if they were too slow to respond. in such cases, one could almost forgive these parents and guardians in question for such "accidents", and then to just stand there with the cameras still pointing–is unacceptable. We must demand justice.
Disclaimer: Lol Cat Research and the Hip Tot Music Fest are closely affiliated. You must know that demanding justice for infants and cats goes above all else.
Disclaimer #2: neither this blog or the Hip Tot has any affiliation or sponsorship deal of any sort with the Huffington Post, they just think that their animal videos are awesome.
Although top-notch journalism has brought LCR to the forefront of groundbreaking cultural pet entertainment, you should not take any of these words at face value. You should watch the freak video yourself and when a commercial comes on, you should turn down the volume, wait till it passes, and then turn the volume up to see the next video involving cats bullying dogs, cats knocking sh*t over, and more!

With the extreme cold this winter, it's more important than ever to find ways to save on heating costs. A simple way to do that is to use a programmable thermostat.
A programmable thermostat can save you up to 10 percent on heating and cooling costs. But even with those savings in mind, you might have doubts if it's really worth it to make the switch. Here are a few common questions to help you figure out if a programmable thermostat is for you.
A programmable thermostat allows you to create a pre-set schedule for the temperature in your home. For example, in the winter it could automatically turn the heat down every morning when you leave for the day, and then crank the heat back up while you're on your way home so you can walk into a warm house.
Won't it cost more to heat a cold house up instead of just keeping it at a consistent temp all day?
What temperature would I need to set it at to save 10 Percent a year on my heating and cooling costs?
To get a 10 percent savings, you would need to turn your thermostat back 7-10 degrees for eight hours a day from its normal setting. The DOE recommends setting your thermostat to 68 degrees while you're awake and setting it lower while you're asleep or away from home during the winter. In the summer, the DOE recommends setting the thermostat to 78 degrees when you're home and then setting it to as high a temperature as comfortably possible when you're away or sleeping.
There are a lot of options in the thermostat aisle. How do I choose one?
There are two basic categories of programmable thermostats: digital and electromechanical.
If you want lots of features like multiple setback settings, overrides, and adjustments for daylight savings time, go with a digital one.
If you want to keep it simple, go for an electromechanical system. It's simple to program, and has sliding bars that make it pretty painless to make changes.
Whether you have a programmable thermostat or a traditional one, we're here to help you make it through the rest of the winter. Give Service Guard a call at 800-504-2000. We'll give you the peace of mind that your heating system is ready for the next winter storm.

Tests under CLIA
CLIA or Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments was established to develop quality control standards for the entire laboratory testing industry to make certain the veracity, consistency and relevancy of the test results regardless of where the test was being performed. The classification of "in vitro diagnostic tests" under CLIA regulations is the responsibility of the FDA.
FDA could transfer commercially distributed in-vitro diagnostic testing products to one of three CLIA regulatory classes according to their probable risk to public health:
Waived tests and testing systems
Test instruments of moderate complexity
In vitro diagnostic tests of high complexity.
Physician office testing laboratories, which were in charge for less then 10% of the total quantity of reportable test results in the United States, usually carry out less complex tests than hospital or sovereign testing laboratories. The list of tests that are suitable for the small medical office include:
• LH Ovulation urine tests
• Fecal occult blood test kit
• Urine pregnancy tests
• Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
• Strep A test
• Assortment of Drug Test Kits
• Glucose and A1C blood test
• And almost any other tests listed in CLIA waived.
Reimbursement for these types of tests is approximately 30% to 45% lower than for the typical text mix at hospitals or independent labs.
The highest volume waived tests are:
• Prothrombin (25.4 million tests/year)
• Urinalysis (23.5 million tests/year)
• Oovulation (13 million tests/year)
• Glucose (12 million tests/year)
• FOBT (11.5 million tests/year)
• The lipid panel (5.5 million tests/year).
CLIA-waived tests represent about $1 billion in annual laboratory testing revenue and, according to specialists' prognose, are expected to grow more than 20% a year.


Maundy Thursday . . . How Will You Serve?
Maundy Thursday probably isn't at the top of anyone's favorite holidays list. Most years the Thursday before Easter likely slips right on by without being marked in any significant way. So I'm encouraging you to stop a moment and think about how you can celebrate tomorrow–by serving.
Maundy comes from the Latin word mandatum, meaning "commandment." It refers to the commands Jesus gave his disciples at the Last Supper, one of which was to love with humility by serving one another. Remember how Jesus served his disciples? Yup, by washing their feet.
To give you a little insight into what a big deal that was, stop to consider the condition of those feet. The disciples would have walked everywhere in sandals along dusty roads where animals also traveled. And then they would come in to sit down and eat. But they didn't tuck their feet up under a table with a nice cloth over it (as lovely as Da Vinci's painting is, it's not accurate). Nope, they probably lounged around a low table with cushions so that their feet were right on out there–maybe even close to the hands and faces of others. Yuck, right?
And no on had washed those feet! So Jesus took on the job typically performed by the lowliest servant. And I bet he did a really good job, too.
So what humble, lowly, thankless jobs are going undone in your world? Maybe tomorrow you could do one of them as you think about Jesus washing dirty feet . . . just before he was betrayed and crucified.


PORTLAND, ORE. – June 6, 2018 – Portland's media arts center, Open Signal, announces more than 40 dynamic summer camps and classes for youth and adults.
Nearly all classes take place at Open Signal's 10,000-square foot media facility on NE MLK Jr. Blvd. Students who complete a class gain free access to check out items from Open Signal's media equipment library, valued at over $650,000, or to reserve the organization's two state-of-the-art media production studios.
Thanks to support from Instrument, a Portland-based digital agency and its staff, Open Signal is able to offer 18 full camp scholarships to youth who cannot pay the fee.
In fiscal year 2017, Open Signal tripled its number of media class offerings, wildly expanding subjects to include experimental and analog media, expanded animation classes, editing with Adobe Premiere, and motion graphics with After Effects. The organization subsequently tripled the number of Portlanders it engaged, when compared to the previous year, through media arts classes, events, community partnerships and use of the center's public production studios and media equipment library.
Open Signal's print program catalogs can be found at over 200 locations in the City of Portland, including most Multnomah County library branches and at Open Signal's public facility.


HYBRIDMAGAZINE.COM | REVIEWS | Peter Murphy - Dust hybridmagazine.com :: indie counter-culture daily, no secret handshakes.
As Peter Murphy reaches ever deeper into eastern music and philosophy, Dust furthers his explorations by employing traditional Turkish musicians. That is not to say that the music is authentically indigenous of his current homeland. Longtime cohort Michael Brook and recent associates Hugh Marsh and Mercan Dede bring modernization to the Sufist instrumentation. Murphy's emphasis on this pool of talent is such that he is credited at the bottom of the roster as "backing vocals." The lyrics stray from his past sublime riddles in favor of awkward phrases and non-sequiturs. He seems to stumble on them, and realizing the oddness, repeats the offending particle. Each pass becomes increasingly more difficult and obvious.
Perhaps the narrative in "Things To Remember" is supposed to be our guide, The power of poetry comes from the ability to defy logic/Defy logic often/When you do that we won't believe you/…But we'll see a meaning. Interesting idea, but the other school of thought is to go on to something decipherable. This lesson is interspersed with a belly dance heavy with Dede's electronic beats. Murphy stretches his voice even more than usual to quivering highs and rubber-faced lows. Those unaccustomed to this note bending may wonder what exactly he's driving at. The very rewarding "Fake Sparkle" is chock full of nimble strings, picked and stroked. Murphy himself uses his voice like a trilling violin, playing against Marsh. A soothing deep moan underlies almost undetectable. Dede's chains rattle pre-industrial machinery as percussion. Since three persons, including Murphy, are credited for bass on "No Home Without Its Sire" it's hard know who to blame for the jazzy 70's slap-and-tickle. The most likely suspect is the guy who's allowed that sort of thing since Should The World Fail To Fall Apart. The lyrics hint at Stevie Wonder before touching mystery. No yesterdreams/no faded flick/no body's sap and tire. These are the patented discordant doubled vocals that influenced Alice In Chains and countless unknowing others.
Call it coincidence or oversight, but it's strange that "Just For Love" was absent from the concert album of the same name. (Alive Just For Love Review) The percussive piece becomes tribal, with Dede's hand drums and great qawwali vocalizations. Matthew Burton adds didgeridoo, as Marsh goes to town on fiddle. Hell, he was headed down to Georgia looking for souls to steal. The only distraction is Murphy repeatedly over-stressing the word Luminescent. With its nostalgic plodding rhythm, Jamaladeen Tacuma's sly blues bass and slapped snare, "Girlchild Aglow" comes in like Bone Machine era Tom Waits. The underwater musicbox is a real departure for Murphy. But unfortunately, so is the prog-rock guitar (violin?) wanking that follows. The layers build on that missed step and make a huge mess. And this just when Murphy was trying the new trick of singing in octaves with himself. A huge throbbing heartbeat pervades "Your Face" as Marsh's violin mourns woefully. On track with the words now, Murphy even triples the vocals, singing I trace your feet/like transparent thrones/I dream of you clinging/I am not alone. The tempo is just right for sleeping and darn little else.
Marsh weaves between the guitars on "Jungle Haze" pulling the cloth tight. Tacuma gets a nice juicy bass run in when they let him. The free orchestration joins and disperses instruments in a pleasing way. Murphy sounds nearly wounded as the words ache out of him. Marsh sympathizes with sobbing strings. The interaction of sounds in this arrangement and the re-flavored "My Last Two Weeks" are akin to the area Van Morrison explored in his mystic work. The low end booming and spanning the measure while several light noodling parts work in succession up top. "My Last Two Weeks" slow 6/8 waltz and delicately plucked harp create magic with the simple progression. This is the sort of overwhelming beauty that should be experienced on rare occasions so as not to ruin it. Dede puts cool record static on top, then goes back farther stealing drums from an orchestra music box. "Subway" must be Murphy's favorite song because the Cascade song appeared on the concert album as well. There must be a message he's trying to get out with it. Maybe he's waiting downtown every night for Petula Clark.
On a scale of artists bringing in indigenous musics to their work: one being David Byrne & Fela, and ten being Peter Gabriel & Youssou N'Dour; Dust rates a seven – The KLF & Tammy Wynette.

HEAD: Surf the Web on your phone
Chris Conrath
With the way the TSE is playing mind games with jumpy investors, it's nice that you now have the ability to keep an eye on conditions 24 hours a day.
Bell Mobility has recently announced the addition of several companies to its mobile browser service. These corporate sites are accessible using Internet-ready phones, and included among the Web sites now available is Charles Schwab Canada.
Clients of the brokerage firm can now get real-time price quotes, access trading functionality on the browser and read news headlines. The general public can also access the site but their quotes have a 20-minute delay.
Today's mobile phones have small screens that show several lines of text-based information, thus allowing users to interact with Web sites that incorporate a wireless protocol. The interface between these devices and the Internet is the Wireless Application Protocol, known as WAP. WAP supports all operating systems but several, such as PalmOS and Windows CE, were specifically engineered for mobile devices. WAP also has a special language (Wireless Markup Language, WML) since mobile devices lack keyboards and have very small screens. HTML is also supported by WAP. Companies that want to have content available to mobile users have to create an interface using WAP and WML.
As with most companies moving to include mobile access to their list of attributes, service is the key.
"What we are really doing is just providing multiple access channels for the same set of services," said Steve Kruspe, CIO at Schwab Canada in Toronto. "It is all coming from the same sources and going to the same brokerage accounts as the full screen (desktop access)."
Bell Mobility's Internet services have been out since last May but each month more and more companies are joining on. Bell started with five applications available with the service and are now up to about 30. According to Kelly Dixon, director of wireless Internet development for Bell Mobility, the number of potential services is essentially limitless. She said there are more than 4,000 wireless applications available on Japanese mobile browsers.
Companies whose applications are included with Bell's service include Yahoo Canada, HMV.com and GetThere.com, a provider of Internet-based travel services.
Dixon said each company is responsible for getting their technology onto the browser, since Bell is not a developer. Bell will, however, help with the implementation. On average, she said, it takes three to six months to fully develop a site using WAP.
Exactly where the mobile Internet market is going is hard to predict, according to analysts.
"It is exciting, it is innovative, it is new, and its implications are not entirely clear," said John Riddell of the Angus Tel-Management Group in Ajax, Ont. Riddell explained that analysts usually look to the U.S. for market information but in this case the Canadian mobile browser market is ahead of anything found in the US.
"Bell Mobility has developed a great deal of momentum on this," he said.
Jordan Worth, an analyst with IDC Canada, agrees the market and technology are in the early stages. He added its growth will be influenced by what applications are available and how consumer friendly the whole process becomes.
"The wireless companies are selling these Web-enabled phones now, irrespective of whether or not they have service, just to get them into people's hands for when they can turn it on," he said. "The wireless connectivity business for data is predicated on the growth of wireless voice."
Riddell sees another big factor in the growth of wireless Internet. "I think that we may find that wireless Internet, from a consumer point of view, will grow out of its usage in a business framework," he said. Riddell added that businesses will see an increase in the need for employees to access their own data, such as schedules, e-mail or order status, and that ultimately there could be a big potential savings for companies.
Charlotte Burke, vice-president of services marketing and e-commerce for Bell Mobility, sees great potential in the business market. "It is not just about being in the business, it is about helping you do better business on the Internet," she said at last month's wireless conference in Toronto.
Dixon said by 2003 as much as a quarter of all mobile use could be for Internet access. Today about 98 per cent of all mobile use is voice.
Bell Mobility's RealTime (www.bellmobility.ca/mobilebrowser) rates start at $25 per month for 200 minutes, with each additional minute costing 25 cents.
Bell Mobility in Mississauga, Ont., can be reached at 1-800-667-0123.
