We, the Finance Ministers of the ASEAN, China, Japan and Korea (ASEAN +3) met in Phuket, Thailand on 22 February 2009 on this special occasion in response to the current global economic turmoil. The meeting was co-chaired by H.E Korn Chatikavanji, Minister of Finance of Thailand and H.E Jeung-hyun Yoon, Minister of Strategy and Finance of Republic of Korea. We were also joined by the Secretary-General of ASEAN and the President of the Asian Development Bank.
While we note that the Asian economics are in a better position to face challenges due to the structural reforms undertaken since the Asian financial crisis, we recognize that the regional economy is now facing great challenges. The current severe economic downturn of the global economy is now facing great challenges. The current severe economic downturn of the global economy coupled with heightened risk aversion in financial markets has adversely affected the region. The regional financial markets have observed large and sometimes disruptive fluctuations. Capital flows into the region have decreased due to global de-leveraging and a large reversal of capital flow, which have affected the financial markets and could undermine growth prospects. This can be a significant downside risk to regional growth, which has already been dragged by the global economic downturn.
We welcome the Declaration of the Summit on Financial Markets and the World Economy and support the common principles that will guide its Action Plan. We urge that a meaningful progress be made at the London Summit 2009 in April to enhance macroeconomic policy coordination and reform of international financial institutions and markets. The current global situation requires a coordinated global response to restore economic growth and financial stability, including financial sector capacity building work.
We believe that proactive and decisive policy actions are required in order to restore confidence, financial stability and promote a sustainable economic growth in the region. In the short-term, the actions should be able to mitigate risk-averse sentiments and bolster market confidence in the region. In the medium and long term, the actions should be able to help provide necessary capital to achieve stable and robust regional growth.
In this regard, we welcome policy measures taken by each member country and reiterate our strong commitment to implementing necessary macroeconomic policies and financial stabilization measures as appropriate. We also reaffirm our determination to dedicate ourselves to increasing free flow of trade and investment, to standing firmly against protectionist measures which would worsen the economic downturn, and to refraining from raising new barriers.
The ASEAN +3 countries have thus embarked on various initiatives to further strengthen regional collaboration in developing a more robust and integrated surveillance mechanism, crisis management and liquidity support system.
In order to ensure regional market stability and to foster confidence in the markets, we stress the importance of operationalising the Multilateralisation of the Chiang Mai Initiative (CMI), and agree on the following key elements.
The total size of Multilateralised Chiang Mai Initiative (CMIM) will be increased from the initially agreed level of US$ 80 billion to US$ 120 billion, the proportion of the amount of contribution between ASEAN and the Plus Three countries will be maintained at 20:80 respectively.
The regional surveillance mechanism should be further strengthened into a robust and credible system which will facilitate prompt activation of the CMIM. An independent regional surveillance unit will be established to promote objective economic monitoring.
After the above surveillance mechanism becomes fully effective in its function, the IMF de-linked portion may be increased above the current limit of 20 percent.
Building on the basis of the progress made thus far, with a view to making our financial cooperation more responsive and effective, we strive to reach agreement on the main components of CMIM by our next meeting in 2009, in Bali, Indonesia.
As an interim measure, the existing bilateral swap arrangement network should play its full role and be strengthened in terms of size and participants as necessary.
We reiterate the importance of the Asian Bond Markets Initiative (ABMI) and express our determination to strengthen our cooperation in line with the new ABMI Roadmap. The new roadmap focuses on the promotion of the issuance of local currency-denominated bonds, and strengthening of infrastructure for bond markets in the region. The implementation of the denominated bond markets and greater accessibility to the regional bond markets. We also recognize the important role of the private sector in the development of bond markets, particularly in cross-border bond transactions and settlement issues.
We will explore ideas for new arrangements which would provide development assistance to the region while addressing unexpected liquidity constraints.

Doctors, Dissection and Resurrection men
April 5, 2013 April 7, 2020 thomas	0 Comments	Event, Exhibitions, Medical History, medical teaching, Museum
The exhibition at the Museum of London highlights the problems over the past 250 years that doctors have faced when training new doctors. Training surgeons and doctors needed as much practice as possible so that when they moved on to treating live patients, they could do the operations as skillfully and as quickly as possible.
Training in speed was especially important with the lack of anesthetics in the early 19th century. Good surgeons performing amputations could amputate a leg in less than a minute and experts such as Robert Liston who could amputate a leg in 30 seconds. This need for corpses, to train on, is what sparked body snatching. Body snatching was done by 'resurrection men', who would disinter a corpse and sell it to a medical school for dissection or anatomy classes.
The exhibition was based around the archaeological excavation of a forgotten burial ground, found in 2006 at the Royal London Hospital. Here they discovered evidence of dissection and autopsy on the corpses which were discovered. Also they found the corpses of other animals such as dogs and monkeys, which had been used to compare anatomies and possibly used due to the lack of human cadavers.
In 1832 the government introduced an act which allowed doctors to dissect donated corpses and use bodies which were unclaimed by relatives or friends. The excavation revealed the extent of use of the unclaimed bodies on which trainees practiced dissection.
Today, over 1000 cadavers are needed for teaching each year, and demand still exceeds supply. Many modern medical schools now use models or modern computer generated dissections, with mostly traditional universities keeping dissection on their courses.

Cybershoes, the foot-worn VR locomotion accessory, garnered over $245,000 through its Kickstarter campaign before its close last November. The Vienna-based company has reentered the crowdfunding waters recently with an Indiegogo campaign that celebrates success today after reaching its funding goal in under 48 hours.
Update (February 7th, 2019): Cybershoes has officially passed its $30,000 goal with three weeks still remaining before the campaign's close, scheduled for March 1st. The original article detailing the Indiegogo launch follows below.
Original Article (February 4th, 2019): The Indiegogo campaign is set to launch on February 5th at 7AM PST (local time here), and has a fixed goal of $30,000, meaning if the campaign doesn't reach that sum before the end of the campaign then backers will be refunded.
A preview of the campaign (link now live) has already been made public, which shows 99 'early bird specials' priced at $269. This includes a pair of Cybershoes, swivel chair (black or red), a round carpet, wireless dongle, USB charger and cables.
The total MSRP of the setup mentioned above is priced at $550, representing a 51% savings for the first 99 backers. Delivery to all backers is estimated for July 2019.
Cybershoes is a strap-on shoe covering which features a barrel wheel underneath, that when spun, translates to forward and backwards VR movement. This, the creators say, helps eliminate some of the discomfort with artificial VR locomotion by tying your in-game movement to a physical action. It's a pretty tried-and-true method, something VR treadmill creators have set out to accomplish with much larger, heavier, and more expensive devices.
One of the issues we noticed when we first demoed Cybershoes at Gamescom 2018 was a distinct difficulty in physically rotating in the swivel chair while trying to change directions. To address this, the company has added pronounced ridges to the bottom of the device to give it a bit more grip.
Demoing a near-final pair of Cybershoes at CES 2019 last month, it was clear the ridges helped somewhat with maneuvering, although general operation still took some getting used to. The same can be said about VR treadmills, although the company is clearly honing in on the at-home user with its small footprint needed to use the device, and significantly lower entry price.
Cybershoes supports HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Pimax VR headsets, and Microsoft VR headsets via the SteamVR platform. The creators claim all VR games supporting free locomotion will work with the device.


The Sienna lit up the tire pressure warning light and the ABS trouble light on the trip from Rochester. The pressures were OK, if a bit low, but the early Toyota TPMS used wheel rotation sensors rather than direct pressure sensors, and we suspect a sensor went bad.
The ABS doesn't report errors through the OBD II interface, requiring a jumper between TC and E1 in the ABS diagnostic interface block under the hood. Our Larval Engineer shows much respect for the engineer who included the pin ID layout under the flip-top lid, eliminating the need for scratch paper.
The 3-4 blink code indicates a left rear wheel sensor failure. Such sensors (or their cables) seem to be either $35 or $175 from the usual sources, with no indication of why some are far more expensive than others. The pictures and descriptions are unhelpful, to say the least.
We'll try cleaning the sensor, which probably won't improve the situation, and then replace the poor thing.

How does a wheel rotation TPMSensor work, I wonder.
It's brutally simple: long-term, a wheel that spins at a different speed than the others has the wrong pressure! I think high pressure = lower speed, low pressure = higher speed, but maybe they're just looking at the absolute value of the difference.
However, the typical failure is for all four tires to slowly lose pressure (because nobody checks the tire pressure), so they all rotate at the same speed and the TPMS system remains blissfully ignorant. I think the standards now call for in-wheel pressure monitoring and wireless data transmission.
ABS uses the short-term relative rotation to detect wheel spinning: if a drive wheel spins faster, it's slipping. If a braked wheel spins slower, it's skidding.
" the typical failure is for all four tires to slowly lose pressure (because nobody checks the tire pressure), so they all rotate at the same speed and the TPMS system remains blissfully ignorant" Yep. That was why I was wondering how it would work. What decent engineer would let that out the door?
I think ABS came first, so you're given four rotational sensors and can build a TPMS to detect a catastrophic flat or single-tire leak with no additional hardware: ain't to be sniffed at.
The always-reliable Wikipedia sayeth the ABS mandate happened in 2011 and TPMS in 2007, but the 2000 Sienna has both. So I think they were just trading off optional capability with cost, which is what engineering is all about.

FBI, Justice Department leaders stay out of sight after riot
(AP News)
Steven D'Antuono, head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Washington field office, left, listens as acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin, speaks during a news conference Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2021, in Washington. Federal prosecutors are looking at bringing "significant" cases involving possible sedition and conspiracy charges in last week's riot at the U.S. Capitol. (Sarah Silbiger/Pool via AP)
WASHINGTON (AP) — A law enforcement news conference this week on the U.S. Capitol riot was notable not only for news that sedition charges were being contemplated but also because of who was not there: the highest-ranking leaders of the FBI and the Justice Department.
Since loyalists of President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol last week, neither FBI Director Chis Wray nor acting Attorney General Jeff Rosen has appeared in public or joined lower-level officials at news conferences or on calls updating the public on the case.
Their absence from the spotlight is striking given the gravity of an attack that has drawn round-the-clock law enforcement attention and bipartisan condemnation. It means that neither official, in a time of national crisis, has appeared on live TV to answer questions or try to reassure the public.
Top FBI and Justice Department leaders might be expected on the podium in more conventional times, but some former officials said they were sympathetic to Rosen and Wray in light of the president's volatile persona and the politically charged nature of this particular investigation.
"If I were in the position that Jeff Rosen is in right now, I would think about not how I could show off but how most effectively I could do the job and turn these dockets over to the next administration for prosecution," said Stuart Gerson, who served as acting attorney general in the early weeks of President Bill Clinton's administration.
Both Rosen and Wray are known for their low-key style, and they could always become more visible in coming days or weeks. But for now the public faces of the Justice Department have largely been Michael Sherwin, the acting U.S. attorney in Washington, and Steven D'Antuono, the head of the FBI's Washington field office. They stood alone at a department news conference Tuesday to announce the creation of a specialized task force to examine sedition charges and to describe FBI warnings about the potential for more violence.
Officials with direct supervision of an investigation are routinely the featured speakers at news conferences, but they are often joined by higher-level department officials, particularly in matters of great public interest and especially for an event in Washington.
That did not happen Tuesday. When Rosen spoke, he did it through a nearly four-minute prerecorded video released at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday by the Justice Department. In it, he called the siege an "intolerable, shocking and tragic episode" and vowed to hold the rioters accountable.
Rosen has not once addressed Justice Department reporters since becoming acting attorney general late last month. His spokesman released three statements on his behalf about the rioting and the death of a Capitol police officer injured during the attack.
Beyond those statements, Justice Department spokesman Marc Raimondi said, the department has issued "significant" amounts of information through the offices that are running it.
"This is completely consistent with the way the Department releases information following incidents," he said.
Wray issued a statement last week condemning the violence but has otherwise not spoken publicly. An FBI spokesman said Wray prefers to let the work speak for itself and has been deeply involved behind the scenes, sharing information with local law enforcement officials and giving multiple briefings to lawmakers, including the leadership members who make up the Gang of Four. He has also remained in close contact with senior officials responding to the riot and spent time in a specialized operations center at headquarters.
Still, the low public profile of the leaders contrasts with how previous episodes have been handled. One day after the 2016 rampage at a gay nightclub in Orlando, then-FBI Director James Comey updated reporters on the investigation in a televised briefing and revealed how the FBI had prior contacts with the gunman.
More recently, after authorities used pepper balls and smoke bombs to clear peaceful protesters from Lafayette Square near the White House, then-Attorney General William Barr held news conferences and discussed the Justice Department's decisions in interviews with reporters.
At those times, both Comey and Barr enjoyed high public profiles and White House support. Rosen, by contrast, is just weeks into a short-term job, and Wray has had to carefully navigate years of attacks from the president on both him and the FBI.
Gerson, who became acting attorney general after Barr left the department at the end of George H.W. Bush's administration, said he was visible during his brief span leading the department, which included catastrophes like the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
"I didn't have any political problems. I was empowered to speak for the Department of Justice in the administration that I was in," Gerson said. But, he said, "that was me, and that was then. And now it's Donald Trump.
"I can understand why the deputy attorney general and the director of the FBI want to refrain from putting themselves out in public when you have such an uncertain president right now," he added.
He said he was heartened by the business-as-usual approach to Tuesday's news conference and the message that many more charges were expected. David Gomez, a former FBI national security official in Seattle, said that even without the involvement of the top officials, the department has still communicated to the public that it takes the investigation seriously.
"They're probably just being careful to keep the politics out of it and make it more of a criminal case," Gomez said. "When you inject the director of the FBI into the mix, even though that's the expectation as the head of the agency, this situation is so volatile that I think they probably said, 'Discretion is the better part of valor,' and let's just let" other officials handle it.

Bright rooms twined with greenery are perfect for a family or business lunch, the futuristic design of the third hall creates the right mood for those who want to have a proper good time. Technical features of the audio equipment have been kept in mind: the music is unobtrusive here; it does not disturb delicious meals and would not hit you on the ears. Regular shows and performances will make your pastime at the restaurant light and romantic. The restaurant's menu combines spicy Georgian flavors, worked out by the master of her craft, brand-Chef Izo Dzandzava, as well as some classic European dishes, courtesy of the culinary art maestro, Yuriy Manchuk.
This restaurant has a wonderful location, it is quiet and cosy. I'm so surprise that you can have always perfect service at any time and great food! This place absolutely in top 10 if you want to start your day with awesome breakfast espaecially shakshuka and cup of some sort of amazing coffee(still don't know how they brew it so good).
Overall this is a place I come back again when in town.
Hi everyone! I thought that I was not surprised at anything, but I was amazed at this restaurant. Me with my Russian colleague did not pass the face control. Our Russian office in advance made an order of the table and we had a good mood, but Brutal man at the entrance said that we do not need to format and look for another place.
I propose to do this to all guests of the beautiful city.
Thank you for the letter! We are so sorry for the situation. Unfortunately, as the restaurant works all night long the manager is responsible for safety of our guets and sometimes has to refuse in the entance. We are very sorry for the inconvenience and hope that this misunderstanding won't prevent you from visiting our restaurant in the future. We are looking forward to welcome you again.
I made this account especially because I really don't understand what is face control in Russia.
I had my birthday last week and decided to celebrate it with my friends in St.Petersburg. We got tips from local people that this place is a very nice one to celebrate birthday. We booked a table (with deposit!) and were planning to have a dinner, with dancing after.
But when we came to the place, a 20 years old boy at the entrance told us that we don't suit their face control. This was outrageous, as we are good looking ladies running our own businesses. Absolutely sober if it matters anything in Russia. Never before I had such treatment. I'm sure there are other nice places in St.Petersburg, but we were not familiar with the city. So on my birthday I was standing outside in a cold weather thinking where to go. It was too late to call anybody to ask for tips, so the whole thing made a bad impression on the whole trip. Unfortunately.
The only thing we figured out why we were not welcome, it's because we are 32-35 years old, and not 18-20. Men of absolutely any kind had no problem to get in.
I didn't understand anything, but one thing is for sure: I never experienced such disrespect in my whole life!
Been to Pryanosti I Radosti? Share your experiences!

Mario Cervo was born in Olbia, he was the first of five children. His childhood spent in very hard times, both for the sad period of the war as well as be orphaned at a young age, he studied with profit until the third class devoting himself, with considerable sacrifice, to support the family.
He began working in the Compagnia Portuale (the stevedores company) of Olbia and here strengthens its nonreligious, socialist and anti-fascist personality who will mark him throughout his life. In this period begins the phonographic material collection and the research in the field of all expressions of his native Sardinia.
A research that began for his passion for Gavino De Lunas, memories of a childhood made of gramophones that played in the streets and children who crowded in front of the "magic tool", to listen to what Mario Cervo has always considered the king of cantadores.
At the same time devoted his research to the recovery of everything that was published in Sardinia, or from Sardinian artists anywhere in the world, giving rise to a unique collection, suspended between traditional Sardinian music and light music.
Is the year in which he got married to Anna Caboni, the woman who will stand beside him throughout his life.
Nuraghe is established, is the first record in Sardinia.
Mario join the birth of the first radios in Olbia conducting a transmission entirely in the Sardinian language. The use of Gallura and Logudorese languages become a hallmark of his public speeches, a sign of belonging to the people who still remember he for its simplicity, availability and generosity.
In the 80s took part in the political city life by standing in the Socialist party, but disillusioned with politics, he prefers to devote his time to his passion for the culture of Sardinia and, as a manager of the Terranova Cycling Company, to the sport of cycling. He has turned his love for his homeland in a research of all that concerned it: records, cassettes, live tapes, compact disc. And also books, newspapers, magazines as well as music and prayers, songs, dances, voices and images. Over the years, many have benefited from his collection that represent the heart of countless researches on Sardinian folk music of 78 rpm records, on sing in the D and on the Rock in Sardinia.
For all, from scholars to amateurs, there were news, information, disc to record or duplicate. The versatility of Mario Cervo and his archive ranges from Sardinian music of the twenties, to classical music, from Tenores to Jazz, folk music, pop music from the 60s to today. He was one of the founding members of S'Abboju, cultural association for the promotion of Sardinian culture by participating in various initiatives, among which highlights the construction of several meetings on the Scottis, dance extremely popular in Gallura.
He was one of the components of the "council" for the use and diffusion of the dialect of Gallura. Mario Cervo, parallel to his interest in music, nourished a huge passion for cycling. He is one of the founders of the Terranova Company Society and has been the promoter of many events.
It leaves us in the morning of eight October of 1997, but remains the memory of his talking objects, vinyl singer, a true cultural heritage that he wanted to leave a legacy to the city and to his Sardinia.

Grafenreuth ist ein Gemeindeteil des Marktes Thiersheim im oberfränkischen Landkreis Wunsiedel i.Fichtelgebirge.

Lage
Grafenreuth liegt an der Kreisstraße WUN 17, die in die Nachbarorte Leutenberg und Röthenbach führt.

Geschichte
Grafenreuth ist als Rodung der Grafen von Sulzbach um 1170 entstanden. Der Ort wurde 1180 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt. Er war der Stammsitz der Familie von Gravenreuth, die bis in das Jahr 1739 auf dem Rittergut ansässig war. Der Nürnberger Burggraf Friedrich V. erwarb den Ort von der Familie von Brandt und den Rorern. Die Besitzer des Gutes waren als Landsassen Teil der Vogtländischen Ritterschaft. Der kleine Ort ist heute noch als radialförmige Waldhufensiedlung erkennbar, er bestand ursprünglich aus dem Rittergut und acht Bauernhöfen, an die sich die Gewanne anschlossen. Das Schloss von Grafenreuth war ein Nachfolgebau des Rittersitzes. Es ging 1739 an die verwandte Familie von Schirnding über und blieb bis Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts im Besitz der Seitenlinie zu Röthenbach. Das Schloss wurde bereits 1710 als schadhaft bezeichnet und vor 1817 abgetragen. Einziges Baudenkmal im Ortsteil ist eine Türrahmung von 1784.

Auf dem Wartberg in Richtung des Hauptortes Thiersheim steht seit 1969 ein Aussichtsturm, an dessen Stelle sich nachweislich in der Zeit von 1499 bis 1787 ein Wartturm befand. In der markgräflichen Wartordnung von 1498 ist er namentlich nicht aufgeführt. Der Heimatforscher Johann Theodor Benjamin Helfrecht zeichnete den Turm 1800 in eine von ihm angelegten orographischen Karte des Fichtelgebirges ein. Schon 1839 stand an seiner Stelle nur ein Vogelbeerbaum und es sind keine Mauerreste mehr erkennbar.

Das ehemalige Gemeindewappen weist auf die ortsgeschichtlich bedeutsamen Adelsfamilien Gravenreuth und Schirnding hin. Für die Gravenreuth steht ein silbernes Einhorn auf blauem Grund. Für Schirnding im Wappenfuß steht ein gestümmelter schwarzer Baumast auf goldenem Grund. Es handelt sich damit um ein redendes Wappen, welches auf die Brandrodung bei der Besiedlung der Region hinweist. Bei der Auflösung der Gemeinde zum 1. Januar 1978 wurden die Gemeindeteile Grafenreuth, Kleehof, Leutenberg, Putzenmühle und Wampen nach Thiersheim eingemeindet, ein Teil des Gemeindegrundes (Garmersreuth) kam zur Stadt Arzberg.

It's another Friday and another Friday Favorites!
Grab our graphic, link back to me, Erika, Narci (or all three of us!) and share your FAVORITES from the week!
This week has been pretty low-key... we've had lots of people in and out of the house (painters, internet, etc.) and so we've been housebound a bit. We've been playing a TON of games and a surprisingly big hit has been this 1-100 number board.
A teacher at school was getting rid of it and I knew that it would be right up Luke's alley. It's awesome because it is so open-ended. Mason likes to put the numbers in order and we talk about patterns and counting by tens. We've also started talking about evens and odds and he'll take out the odds or evens and then see how it leaves the opposite columns. It's great because it's tactile and he can see the patterns.
For Luke we've been talking about multiples and removing multiples of certain numbers. This week we talked about nines and he LOVED the pattern that it made when we took out the nines and we were able to talk about the sum of the digits of each multiple of nine and he could see how the sum was always nine and thought it was so cool! It's a super basic toy, but has provided a ton of fun at our house.
I wasn't able to find the same board, but THIS ONE looks even better and seems like a great price for what you get.
Wedding season and the start of summer are CRAZY in general for Dave (he's in charge of food service at a BIG country club) and this season has been INSANE (like... their biggest period in the history of the entire club) and he FINALLY got a day off on Monday. Daddy is Griffin's FAVORITE!
With painters and such in our house I've been having to keep the kids upstairs and out of the way so this spot has been their FAVORITE for some morning hangout time.
I was taking their pic and THIS happened!!! OMG!
That squishy little goggle face KILLS me!
Diving board time at the end of the lessons is everybody's FAVORITE!
I love how fearless GG is!
It's no shocker that tiny people clothes are my FAVORITE. I'm currently trying to convince myself that Griffin doesn't need these jeans.
When we moved into this house I had visions of NO TOYS downstairs. Well, being downstairs is apparently their FAVORITE ;) hahaha They do play upstairs, but somehow they're wherever I am a lot of the time.... and I kind of love it.
I just got this coverup in the mail this week and I've already worn it twice. Once out of the house as a dress... and I got a few compliments to boot! :) It's definitely my new FAVORITE.
I hope y'all have a WONDERFUL Father's Day weekend! Our plans include absolutely nothing. Just like we like it. Grilling and swimming and just hanging out. Our FAVORITE!
Adorable pictures as usual! Thanks for hosting the link up. Please stop by and check out my new weekly link up as well. Have a fabulous weekend!
What a fun filled week:) Ah, the steps. Why do kids love playing on steps so much? I am loving you on Snapchat, always fun to see what's up at Andrea's house:) Happy Weekend!
Right!?!?! It's not like they don't all have their own rooms AND a playroom! Let's play on the stairs and/or the bottom of the stairs! hahaha So glad you're loving SnapChat! I have so much fun on there!!!
GO, G!!!!! That side by side is hysterical! And that cover up is SO YOU! Love it!
Isn't it?!?! Long, black flowy... it's me!
Just my normal top knot! hahaha It's about 5-days strong at this point... but I'll try to snap a pic!
If that coverup is like a gauzy material---beware when washing it! Mine shrank pretty bad and became an ankle dress haha. Have a great weekend!!!
Oh no!!! It's not really gauzey... but I"ll be careful. Thanks for the tip!
It's not only your top knot that leaves a big impression, YOU leave a big impression! You are just the sweetest. I love your blog!! What a precious family!
UMM of course she needs those sandals!! They're named after her, after all!! SO stinkin cute!
Are they?!?! I hadn't even noticed! Going to look now!
I've been following you on snapchat and loving your snaps. I'm also decorating a house (over a year after we moved in). I love the bookcase you have in your front room, do you mind sharing the source?
IT's from Weirs in Dallas - it's fantastic!
The Sid Dickens tiles that you have-first, how do you get them to hang so straight? I feel that I'd constantly be straightening them. Second-do they ever go on sale? I love them, but at $98 each, I'm not sure I can afford it. Maybe on sale, though! Thank you!
I just use a level... and this time I used these special hangers called Sid Savers as well. And no... they don't go on sale. I first saw them when I was working retail and it was a Sid Dickens policy that even if we were doing a storewide sale we weren't allowed to include Sid tiles. Or if people had a coupon, Sids were always excluded. The company is really big about keeping the integrity/value of the tiles up and they would actually pull their product from a store if they found out retailers were selling them for less than the standard price. Maybe check eBay?
Oh! And ask for them as gifts :) I started collecting a little over 8 years ago and my in-laws have given me one for every birthday/Christmas since then. Dave knows that I love them and they're an easy go-to-gift for him to pick up for me where it's still a surprise and he knows I'll love it.
Given that those shoes share her name I think she must have them!!
What are the toys Luke is playing with, Bionicles? My son would love those!

Sleep is overrated, or so I tell myself when my daughter is awake through the night because she's teething, has a diaper rash or is in the middle of a growth spurt. Most nights, my wife graciously lets me sleep, but on the days when she needs assistance, I jump in to help meet our little one's needs and send her back to sleep.
Elora doesn't like waking up either, it seems. She cries because something isn't right in her world, and when that's addressed, she starts to doze off. We can communicate in slight ways, but some nights we're really bumbling about until we discover the true issue.
Parenting is tough work, especially on low sleep, but it's rewarding in its own way. In the future, I'll be glad that I held my daughter when I could. It's also a good feeling to know that someone is completely depending on you for survival and that they trust you to take care of them.
My writing group recently disbanded due to a lack of attendance, but I thought I'd share some of the writing exercises we would use in hopes that they will benefit other groups or individuals looking to get their thoughts flowing. I'm pretty sure I swiped these ideas from other people, so I wouldn't be surprised to find them elsewhere on the Internet.
The intent for each of these exercises is to let people write for 3-5 minutes, just long enough to put 2-3 paragraphs together, but not long enough to think for an extended period of time. It's good rough-draft training for those of us who like to think through too many details early on. Each person should read their work aloud at the end of the time.
Exercise 1: Let someone think of a random sentence. Each person must begin a short story with this sentence. I tend to runaway with this exercise and never end up at a good stopping point. Maybe that's why I prefer the next exercise.
Exercise 2: Let someone think of a random sentence. Each person must end a short story with the sentence. I really like this one because you can be clever in getting to the end, to the point of drawing laughs. It's like being given a punch-line.
Exercise 3: Divide the group into teams of 4-5 people. Each person in the team should start a story. When time is up, everyone pushes their papers to the left (keeping them within the same team). Give everyone a minute to read what has already been written. Then, each person should continue the story they were given. Continue rotating the stories until they reach the original authors, and then read the stories aloud in their entirety. This could be a good way to get people mad at you for ruining their work, I suppose, but I haven't had that experience. I especially like it when an author tries to set up the next person, but the newest author ignores the suggestion and takes the story someplace the previous author never wanted it to go.
There are a plethora of other exercises out there, but these were some of the ones we liked to do on a regular basis. You can run through one or two fairly quickly, and sometimes you may come away with a new story idea.
We returned from our vacation to Cincinnati earlier this week. One of the events we took part in was the Ohio Renaissance Festival. Once again, Ron (my father-in-law) and I donned our mail coats and assorted armor to become knights. Bess and her mother dressed as middle-class ladies of the medieval era, and our daughter wore a princess outfit (complete with pointed cap).
Normally, Ron and I draw attention wherever we go in our outfits, and we love it. This time, however, my daughter stole the show. Cameras came out from everywhere to film the little princess. How cute was she? Check out this picture.
My wife also took this quick video towards the end of the day. I'd like to point out that it was about 90 degrees, and Ron and I had been wearing our armor for several hours. Ron's wife was pushing the princess's cart most of the day, so he was giving her a break. As for me, you can see that I'm just fighting to stay alive.
We came back to the Ren Faire on Monday dressed as twenty-first century civilians. It was even warmer that day, so I was glad for the break, but it did feel a bit odd. No one asked for our pictures. It was like we were celebrities in disguise. Our next outing is in October, and Ron and I are going without the princess on the first day so that we can get our fill of attention before we bring her back into the spotlight.
A couple of weeks ago, I had the chance to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I was not only surprised by the price of admission for a matinee, but I was also taken aback at the quality difference between this latest sequel and others in the series. For those who have yet to see this film, beware of spoilers that lie below.
I think my main dislike of this film is how it mixed genres. Science-fiction does not belong in the Indiana Jones universe. Each of its predecessors had an element of the supernatural, but I can more readily accept God (in the general sense, not necessarily God Himself) as the supernatural force than extra-terrestrial beings. As soon as I realized this latest caper was tied to the Roswell incident (though I'm not sure they used that phrase exactly), I inwardly groaned. Why did we have to go there with this? Couldn't the crystal skull unlock some other mystery, like the lost city of Atlantis?
Now, the film wasn't horrific the whole way through. I liked the concept of an aged Dr. Jones who doesn't get around quite as well as he used to, and I even liked the character of Mutt Williams as a decent sidekick (though he often proved to be a device for explaining too much of the plot). There were also some cute throw-back moments, like when the Ark of the Covenant is revealed near the opening of the movie. Some of the action sequences also worked well, or seemed to at least fall in line with the same level of expectation as previous Indiana Jones movies. Of course, that may have been because they were part of the original movies.
I think there's a level of accountability that's missing from George Lucas's life right now. Maybe that's what's keeping him from coming up with more good movies like Raiders of the Lost Ark. Instead, we're left with movies like the Star Wars prequels and this latest Indiana Jones disappointment. Somewhere between Raiders and now, Lucas realized who he is, and that pride is getting in the way of better stories.
We were finally able to get a copy of Wii Fit a few days ago. Nintendo pulled off another fantastic achievement by bringing exercise to video games.
Wii Fit comes with a new component: the balance board. This is essentially a new controller that interacts with the game. You step onto the board, and it's sensitive to pressure. It's more advanced than a bathroom scale in that it can detect differences in where your weight is applied, so it "knows" if you're leaning forward or to the side.
Wii Fit offers a variety of exercises from strength training to flexibility and endurance. It also focuses a lot on balance and posture, routinely testing you and evaluating your progress. I especially enjoy the balance games offered that help you to learn balance in a fun way, like skiing or heading soccer balls (watch out for the shoes).
The yoga and strength training areas use a virtual trainer who demonstrates the moves and comments on your performance (positive and negative). The screen will usually display a real-time indication of your balance, and this gives you something to focus on when you perform the moves. Everything is very straight-forward. For example, I know nothing of yoga, but I was able to perform some of the moves pretty easily after watching a demonstration (but I will probably never pull off some of the moves that require more flexibility than I can muster).
I was surprised at how much fun this game really is, considering that the whole point is to get you to exercise. Perhaps the humor of the "Body by Nintendo" shirts will soon be lost if people play this game enough to get in shape. Or perhaps the shirts will be used more for bragging than joking.
I will be submitting more queries next week.
It isn't much fun to be sick at the same time as my wife, mostly because neither of us can wait on the other. Add a sick baby in the mix, and things become even more interesting.
A couple of weeks ago, I had one of those, "Oh, I guess I'm a parent," moments when we took my daughter to the pediatric emergency room. She wasn't quite to a fever, but she hadn't kept much food down at all that day. It took us three hours to see a doctor because the plague seemed to have hit most of the community's youth, although I was a little annoyed by the illness's apparent symptoms of running around and shouting.
Once we saw a doctor at 1 AM, our daughter's digestive tract flushed itself upon my wife with a gooey fanfare. Our daughter had a change of clothes on hand; my wife didn't. After learning of this latest event, the doctor recommended we be admitted to the hospital for overnight observation.
I drove home to pack some things for us and started back to the hospital at 4:30. I hadn't slept for a long time, and driving was quite perilous. At one point, I was certain there was a man running along the side of the highway at the same rate as my car; he turned out to be the antenna.
Our daughter's temperature relented during the wee hours, and she was finally able to keep some food down. Apparently, she had cried so much from being sick that her stomach had filled with gas, and that was the reason for all the vomiting. Her temperature did fluctuate a little over the next week, and she's still a bit congested to this day, but overall she's doing much better.
My wife was sick at the same time as my daughter. I came on board with the illness a few days later (probably from a lack of sleep). Things could have been much worse, of course, and these events weren't unmanageable. I simply had no idea how dynamic parenting is.
Stay tuned for more updates as I have them.

Proximity Recordings was established in 2010 as a platform for a group of like-minded friends to be launched into the world of Drum & Bass music. Two months down the line, with a P&D deal secured with Nu Urban Music and a wealth of versatile tunes at the ready, label boss Basher signed artists Xtrah, Stealth & Stylus, Frankee, Kit, and Motion onto the books.
A wave of diverse releases was to follow, and, after gaining early chart success on Beatport and iTunes, Proximity catapulted into the scene. Ultimately, more artists were to join the Proximity roster, and by summer 2010 the label had acquired quality tracks from the likes of Bazil, InsideInfo, Eddy Woo, NC-17, and Future Signal.
2011 saw the Proximity camp drop their first compilation LP, titled 'Close Proximity', which featured tracks from Dexcell, D Code, The Funktion, Para, Bladerunner, Semantic, and Subterra (plus many more). As the music came flooding in so did the producers and Proximity began to expand its operations, looking internationally; reaching artists such as Bredren, M-zine & Scepticz, and Mtwn. However, not forgetting their UK roots, Proximity also recruited fresh home-grown talents such as Axon, Outer Heaven and Gerra & Stone to join the family.
The following year saw the label expand its roster yet again by sourcing material for release from the likes of Raiden, Meth, Anile, Fade, Detail, L33, and Lestr. By the end of 2012 the Proximity imprint had become a regular face on various international radio playlists, including BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 1Xtra & Kiss 100.
By 2014, Proximity Recordings was cemented as an independent label whose door was open to any act as long as the music did the talking. With this ethos in mind, both new and recognized names (AMC, Incognito, DBR UK, Kyrist, and Tom Small, to name a few) joined the force. With an impressive back catalogue of 46 Singles, 33 EP's and 9 LP's (including their Proximity Classics & Proximity Effect series) the great minds behind the London based label took the decision to release their debut artist album from Bredren, titled 'Trinity LP', which was released both on digital and physical CD formats, a first for the label, truly marking a milestone in its history.
With an ever present thirst for fresh music, 2015 was another fresh year to bring through some fresh blood. Artists from all corners of the Drum & Bass scene came knocking on Proximity's door, and once again the label delivered the goods to its following by securing killer tracks from Quaed, Jam Thieves, Young:G, M-Soul & S27, C-Side, Goodfield and ALIBI.
The dawn of 2016 heralds the continuous growth and success of Proximity, with infamous Proximity Recordings club nights in the UK and abroad, a new and exciting website project, a merchandise range, and of course more genre defining music!
All releases are available to purchase from the Proximity store.

Q: Storing sessions in encrypted cookies Is it a good idea to store sessions on a client side using encrypted cookies with an HMAC?
There is a problem: if somebody discovers a secret key, they could gain access to any user account. Could this problem be eliminated by attaching a part of user's password hash to a cookie? Then on the server side, you could compare this hash to the actual value.

A: You don't want to use the password hash for anything other than verifying a user's credentials. Not sure if you were implying otherwise, but you definitely do not want to leak hashes (partial or otherwise) for no reason.
You are exactly right that encryption + HMAC can be broken if a malicious user discovers the key(s). That is why we must guard the keys with extreme care. It is all but impossible for a malicious user to be able to determine the key from a properly encrypted cypher.
To get your keys, they would have to compromise your server. If they can compromise your server, none of this really matters. All your proposal would do is to make them have to get two keys instead of just one. They have access to your encryption keys, so they likely have access to your database... so the hashes are already exposed. It's like adding a moat after someone is already in your castle.
In short, encryption + hmac is not broken. It is sufficient for protecting your cookie assume you have properly implemented it.

The next Tamworth Jelly will take place on Wednesday 28th February 2018 between 10am and 1pm.
All local business people, freelancers and home workers and very welcome to attend for the whole session or just for half an hour. Free tea and coffee will be available and you are welcome to bring your own food. We are also within walking distance to all local amenities in the town centre.
Jelly is a concept that was formed whilst a group of freelancers were eating jelly beans, wondering how they could bring people together to enjoy some company, share ideas, perhaps a bit of collaboration, all whilst working on their own business. Sometimes working alone can take it's toll and it is great to have a free opportunity to mix things up a bit.
There are several pay and display car parks dotted around if you cannot find any free parking opportunities.

Eleven of twelve of Georgia's coal-fired power plants are leaking toxic pollutants into the groundwater, according to a recent report.
Toxic coal ash pollutants are leaking into groundwater from 92 percent of Georgia coal-fired power plants, according to an analysis by the Environmental Integrity Project and Earthjustice of industry data made available for the first time this year.
Georgia Power owns most of these power plants reported in the study, 10 of 11 to be exact.
Activists associated with the two organizations are hoping the new report will bolster legislative action this year in the Georgia General Assembly which convenes in January.
Coal ash is known to contain many toxins which include arsenic, cadmium, and lead. Those toxins can cause illnesses such as cancer and heart disease. Coal ash is the byproduct of the combustion of coal burned in coal-fired power plants.
Fly Ash, a very fine, powdery material composed mostly of silica made from the burning of finely ground coal in a boiler.
Bottom Ash, a coarse, angular ash particle that is too large to be carried up into the smokestacks so it forms in the bottom of the coal furnace.
Boiler Slag, molten bottom ash from slag tap and cyclone type furnaces that turns into pellets that have a smooth glassy appearance after it is cooled with water.
Flue Gas Desulfurization Material, a material leftover from the process of reducing sulfur dioxide emissions from a coal-fired boiler that can be a wet sludge consisting of calcium sulfite or calcium sulfate or a dry powdered material that is a mixture of sulfites and sulfates.
Some power plants may dispose of it in surface impoundments or in landfills. Others may discharge it into a nearby waterway under the plant's water discharge permit.
Federal law states that the coal ash disposal and storage in ponds that should be built more than five feet above groundwater with no source of underground water underneath the pond as to prevent leakage of pollutants into an aquifer.
Georgia Power has operated power plants that generate tens of millions of tons of coal ash, the toxic byproduct of burning coal, as reported in the NY Times. The coal ash was mixed with water and dumped primarily in unlined basins or ponds near the plants. These ponds operated for years with little or no state or federal oversight.
Earlier this year, utilities like Georgia Power were required to report their data based on EPA regulations which is how the "Georgia at a Crossroads" report was generated from the groundwater data.
"We call on Georgia Power, Governor-elect Kemp and the Georgia Legislature to prevent further contamination of our waterways from coal ash," said Jennette Gayer, the Director of Environment Georgia.
Although it is known that coal ash can cause health issues, this report said that most drinking water wells near the coal ash sites have not been tested for toxins, so it is unclear whether contaminated groundwater is threatening public health.


Your living standards and household circumstances matter!
The Family Resources Survey (FRS) is a study of the living standards and circumstances of people living in the UK today, including Northern Ireland. The study provides vital information which helps the Government develop and monitor policies that help everyone, from single people and families with children, to those with caring responsibilities and older people. The FRS was launched in Great Britain in October 1992 for the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). In April 2002 the survey was extended to Northern Ireland is carried out by Central Survey Unit on behalf of the Department for Communities (DfC).
The primary purpose of the FRS is to provide the Department for Communities (DFC) with data to inform the development, monitoring and evaluation of social welfare policy. The survey is used by many other government departments and is used for tax and benefit policy modelling by HM Treasury and HM Revenue and Customs. The FRS is also used extensively by academics and research institutes for social and economic research.
If you have received a letter asking you to take part in the Family Resources Survey you may have some further questions.
Please note that you do not need any special knowledge to take part in the survey. Many of the questions are factual and the interviewer will be able to provide any explanations or further details as required. Most people who are chosen agree to take part!
The information leaflet explains all about the survey in detail and can be accessed here.
A copy of the letter send to households can be viewed here.
Our interviewers will present their official NISRA ID when they call.
The annual sample for Family Resources Survey in Northern Ireland consists of a systematic random sample of 3,840 addresses selected from the POINTER address database. The Pointer database is managed by the Land & Property Services (LPS) and Ordnance Survey Northern Ireland (OSNI) with input from Royal Mail. Across the UK over 40,000 addresses are selected each year to take part in the FRS.
Each month approximately 320 addresses are selected for interview across Northern Ireland. The FRS aims to interview all adults aged 16 or over in each of the households selected to take part. Although people aged 16-19 in full-time non-advanced education or on a government scheme for employment training are, for survey purposes, regarded as children and not interviewed.
Access to anonymised FRS datasets is available for registered users via the UK Data Service website.
A report on UK Statistics Authority's Assessment of compliance with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics for the Family Resources Survey in Northern Ireland is available here.

New type of clouds – Asperitas (Undulatus asperatus)
New type of clouds – Asperitas (formerly known as Undulatus asperatus). Meteorologists distinguish 10 types of clouds. But a certain mysterious formation discovered a decade ago. We are stubbornly involved in this degree that a separate variety has been introduced especially for it – for the first time in 60 years! It was introduced to the classification by the founder of cloud appreciation society, Gavin Pretor-Pinney. This is the first since 1951 (after cirrus intortus) added to the New International Cloud Atlas of the World Meteorological Organization. Which new edition appeared in 2017 What separates the so-called. Asperitas (what in translation means as much as "Stormy") from other clouds, is their uneven and very uneven basis. This formation rarely appears in Poland, for this in the USA is observed regularly. Especially in the areas of the Great Plain, East of the Rocky Mountains.
Since their discovery, in the United States, there were observed m. In. In Norway, Scotland, France, Estonia and Poland.

Atari – Founded in 1972 by N. Bushnell and T. Dabney
Atari – Company founded in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney, was a pioneer in the field of computer games. In the 1980s, it belonged to the most important manufacturers of personal computers and computer games. The Pong game was the first video game console to be connected to TV. It subscribed to history thanks to game consoles such as Atari 2600 or the revolutionary 64-bit Atari Jaguar console. It also created one of the first portable Atari Lynx gaming consoles. Among the personal computers, the hit was the 16-bit Atari ST computer system, and later the 8-bit versions of Atari 400/800 / XL / XE, which production lasted until 1992. Four years later, the company was in crisis and the brand Atari was slowly disappearing.
In 2000, the company was taken over by the French company Infogrames. Under the Atari brand, several games have been released. However, on January 21, 2013, the company officially declared bankruptcy.

Battle of Somme – The attack of French and British
Battle of Somme – The great Somme offensive planned by the French and the British. Was to finally break the German resistance and end the war within a few weeks. The decisive significance in this plan was played by a series of secret tunnels. Dug up by the whole company for months. Leading the artillery fire of German trenches, the British imperceptibly placed under enemy positions 19 explosives.
On the first of July 1916, mines under German lines almost simultaneously exploded. The largest load was broken in the earth by a crater with a depth of 21 meters and a diameter of 91 meters. Contrary to the expectations of the generals, however, the enemy forces were not destroyed. And the offensive became a deadly trap for the soldiers.
Already in the first 30 minutes of the fire from German machine guns, thousands of Britons were killed. On the first day of the attack on German positions. About 21000 British and French soldiers died. The fights continued for another five months. Consuming over a million lives. Only to get a 35-kilometer piece of the front. Approx. 10 kilometers deep into the enemy's territory.

Interior heating – Heat from battery or pump
Interior heating – The car's engine can be started remotely not only in the BMW 7 Series, where the key allows you to control the car on the touch screen. But also in Swedish Volvo produced for a cool climate. Pre-heating the cabin and cooling the windows will be easier in electric cars. At Nissan Leaf, or the latest Mercedes-Benz EQC, you do not need to run the engine for this purpose. Mercedes does not take energy to ventilate directly from the battery. The Germans have used a modern heat pump to reduce energy consumption.

Andre-Marie Ampere – Thoughtful and versatile scientist
Andre-Marie Ampere – (1775 – 1836) – The ancestor of electrodynamics did not go to primary school, his father taught him alone. Ampere sent his first scientific work to the Lyon Academy of Sciences (Academie de Lyon) at the age of 13! A quiet life and urgent studies were interrupted when his father was guillotined in 1793 for the Jacobin dictatorship. Eighteen-year-old Ampere has suffered this trauma. After the period of mourning, he returned to science and spiritual work. He was interested in mathematics and physics as well as in philosophy, botany, chemistry, as well as Latin, Italian and Greek.
Son Jean-Jacques Ampere (1800 – 1864) after his father's death finished his work. Which was to classify the sciences –
Sketches from the philosophy of science, or an analytic representation of the general classification of all human knowledge
But his greatest merit is description of magnetism and subsequent establishment of the theory of electromagnetic phenomena as the basis of electrodynamics. He also created the first magnetic coil, which became the basis for the later telegraph.
At the age of 22, he began to teach mathematics in Lyon and later became a professor of chemistry and physics. For nineteen years he taught at the Polytechnique in Paris. During his lifetime he belonged to many scientific societies and he was also appreciated abroad. Unfortunately, his financial situation did not reflect merit. He often lacked money for experiments, which delayed his work.
He spent most of his life traveling, while on one of them in Marseilles, on June 10, 1836, he died. On the gravestone, according to his wishes, engraved: Tandem felix – Finally happy.
