Return of the (Televised) Nerds
CBS's The Big Bang Theory brings nerd culture, with science chops, back to mainstream TV
By Christina Hurtado

I love nerds. I loved nerds even when it wasn't cool, so it's nice to see them coming into their own on network TV. I remember a time when I was hard pressed to find one real nerd on prime time, never mind a quartet of physics-spouting, Klingon Boggle-playing super brains. Let's face it: Charlie Epps has nothing on the characters of CBS's The Big Bang Theory, a show full of loveable (albeit incredibly awkward) nerds. The show glorifies those of us who remember old school Ataris, the Flash, and know exactly how we roll in the Shire.
The show not only delivers a healthy dose of nerd-culture references, it also offers up some legitimate scientific content, something that's pretty rare in mainstream television. How many TV nerds do you see engaging in real scientific banter? It's more than the big words and convoluted sentence structure; the dialogue actually contains scientifically sound ideas.
UCLA Professor of Physics and Astronomy David Saltzberg is the science man behind the curtain, and many of the punchlines. He also writes equations on the set's white boards. "Physicists love to nitpick, so for the 100 in the 10 million people who might watch the show, I try to get it as close to 100% accurate as I can," Saltzberg commented in an interview with USA Today.
In one episode, the character Sheldon showed up to a Halloween party dressed as the Doppler Effect. In another, the boys compete in a physics bowl, complete with real questions and equations. When analyzing their interactions with their attractive neighbor Penny, the boys often use scientific terminology to describe their emotions. They talk about heart rates, pupil dilation, and hormonal imbalances, where others would simply discuss "feelings". One of my favorite moments involves Sheldon's discovery that someone altered his work on beta function of quantum chronodyanmics. When he confronted his nemesis, Leslie Winkle, as the perpetrator, Winkle replies, "Yeah, I noticed it when I got up to get a glass of water, so I fixed it, and now you can show that quarks are asymptotically free at high energies. Pretty cool, huh?" Yes, it is. And the science is correct, which makes it even better.
The Big Bang Theory airs on CBS on Monday nights at 8pm.

Termites are ant-like, yet distinct from ants.

A common worry for homeowners is the threat that a layer of mulch applied next to a house foundation might draw termites (Isoptera). It is a worry that spawns several different questions. Unhappily, not all experts agree on the answers to all of these questions. But if you wish to use mulch near your foundation and are unsure as to how to proceed, the best short answer is this:
To be on the safe side, leave a 1-foot-wide swath of ground mulch-free all along your foundation and make sure door and window frames do not touch the mulch. (Also, keep the ground here as dry as you can).
Outside of this mulch-free zone, apply mulch (as people often do to suppress weeds in their foundation plantings), but limit its depth to just a few inches, and inspect it vigilantly for termites.
Now that you have the short answer, let's explore this issue in greater depth.
Drainage (Moisture), Termites, and Your Foundation
When it comes to termite control, opinions vary on the degree of caution you must exercise when applying mulch near a house. Mulch itself isn't a good source of nutrition for termites. In fact, it's a non-preferred food source. However, mulch provides conditions termites prefer: it retains moisture, which they like, and it insulates them from temperature extremes. It's extremely rare for termites to be present in bagged mulch brought in from big box stores or from commercial companies, as termites rarely survive the wood shredding process. Instead, termites live in the soil, and then seek out food sources. Mulch simply provides conditions that help them thrive. But when mulching foundation plantings, you should, at the very least, be aware of termite issues, especially if:
Termites are known to be a concern in your area.
You, yourself have had trouble with termite pests in the past.
Since termites have the potential to cause a lot of damage, it is best to play it safe and err on the side of caution when mulching near your home's foundation.
Having good drainage around a foundation is important anyway, but it is particularly important for termite control because termites like moisture. Ensuring adequate drainage is relatively simple: Grade the ground so that it has about a 5-percent slope away from the house to channel water away from the foundation. Make sure gutters are clean and divert water away from the foundation by installing downspouts and splash blocks.
Drawing Termites and Mulching Around Foundations
Consider the sub-questions implied within the overarching question of whether we need to worry that mulching around foundations causes termite problems:
Should the mulch be allowed to come into contact with the foundation?
If so, how deep a layer of mulch is acceptable, meaning how close should the mulch be allowed to come to a wooden surface of the house wall?
Are some types of mulch preferable when it comes to termite control? Does a wood mulch actually draw these pests to a yard, in search of a snack?
Each of these termite-control questions deserves individual treatment.
There is some disagreement over whether mulch should be allowed direct contact with your foundation. Some experts advise against it altogether (you certainly should not allow such contact if a termiticide was applied to the soil along the foundation when your house was built). If you wish to be totally free of worry regarding termites, then this is the correct answer for you.
If you are less paranoid and intend to let mulch come into contact with the cement of your foundation, then limit the depth of the layer of mulch to about two inches (in fact, even if kept further away from the house, a mulch layer in a foundation bed should not be much deeper than this, with four inches being maximum depth). In answering the question of how close to allow mulch to come to the wood on your house wall, Burnett's Landscaping in Salem, Connecticut (U.S.) recommends "at least eight inches of exposed foundation between the top of the planting bed and the wood sill plate of the house structure."
When it comes to the best type of mulch to use when termite control is a concern, there is a widespread misconception. Folks assume that, because termites eat wood, only wood mulches present a problem. That is a myth. There is also the separate question of whether, technically speaking, mulch actually draws termites to your land.
The issue is not termites being drawn to a property by the promise of a wood mulch that they can eat, but rather termites that are already present (in the soil) exploiting the mulch as a hiding place, using it as a launching pad to invade your house. Termites like moisture, and all mulches provide that to some degree. In fact, good moisture-retention is one of the hallmarks of the most effective mulches. Your plants enjoy this quality in a mulch, but so do the termites. And remember, even mulches that retain less moisture (such as stone mulches) still furnish pests with a place to hide.
So the issue is not so much that mulch draws termites to a property (they were probably there already), as it is that mulch makes life more comfortable for these pests. And placing mulch near the foundation, specifically, just invites them to rise up out of the soil and search for ways to penetrate your house's walls. Cypress sapwood, loblolly pine, and slash pine are all favorites of termites.
The good news is that there are actually some kinds of wood mulch that termites dislike:
Cedar mulch
Mulch that comes from the heartwood of cypress
Southern tidewater red cypress
California redwood
It is more accurate to say that termites eat cellulose than to say that they eat wood. Cellulose can be found in the cell walls of the plants that you grow in your garden (not just trees). Consequently, termites give you another reason not to like them: They can damage your landscape plants.
Know What to Look for and Stay Vigilant
Staying on the lookout for termites and responding swiftly when you detect their presence can save you a lot of money. First of all, find out what termites are and what they look like. You may think that they just look like "white ants," but it is not as simple as that, although termites are comparable in size to some ants.
Termites are social insects, divided within their colonies by castes, and there are many different species. Not all termites look alike. Populations of the pests are far-ranging; there are termites on every continent except Antarctica. But portions of the northern tier of states in the U.S. (northern Maine, for example) are lucky: Termite populations there are small or non-existent.
Regularly inspect the mulch in foundation plantings to determine if any termites are present. If you find any, contact a reputable professional in the termite-control business immediately.

Hon. Dr. Monique Mujawamariya (born 27 July 1955) is a Rwandan human rights activist who moved to Canada and then South Africa. She was a survivor of the Rwandan genocide and she won an international award in 1995. In 2014 she was living in South Africa where she is concerned with women's rights.

Life
Mujawamariya was born in Butare in Rwanda in 1955. She became concerned with human rights and formed the Rwandan ADL ().

The genocide
On the 6 April 1994, the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana died when his aircraft was shot down and this event immediately preceded what was to be known as the Rwandan genocide in which an estimated 800,000 to 1,000,000 people are thought to have died. Mujawamariya was a targeted figure in Kigali, where Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines called her a "bad patriot who deserves to die". She was in communication with Alison Des Forges every 30 minutes because of this threat and the aircrash. Des Forges was a member of Human Rights Watch and she was told to look after her children when Mujawamariya ended the call to avoid her friend hearing her die. As it was, Mujawamariya survived.

Mujawamariya managed to escape by running into her garden until the soldiers left. She then hid in a roof space for 40 hours before brazenly approaching the soldiers armed only with a picture of her late husband in uniform. After she had paid a substantial bribe, she was able to escape and contact Des Forges. Des Forges arranged for her to be put on a list for evacuation, and she escorted Mujawamariya through the soldiers who surrounded the airport.  Mujawamariya escaped, having sent her children to the south of the country. Weeks later, she still did not know what had happened to her three children.

Mujawamariya was able to fly to Washington, where she met Anthony Lake who was an advisor to President Clinton. She had been amongst a group who had met Clinton the previous December. However, there was little sympathy as it was judged that Rwanda, and its problems, were outside of America's national interest.

She was awarded the Democracy Award from the National Endowment for Democracy in 1995, and the same year she was given an honorary doctorate by Amherst College.

Today
Mujawamariya now (2014) lives in Cape Town where she works on issues relating to women's rights. She returned to Rwanda to attend her son William's wedding in 2014.

Pastor forced sex on women, jury told
The Toronto Star/December 11, 2007
By Peter Small
The pastor of a Toronto church, who claimed to heal people by giving them spiritual baths and naked rubdowns, impregnated two young women he coerced into having sex, a prosecutor says.
Frank Seeko Lawrence, 58, ordained minister of Toronto Mount Zion Revival Church of the Apostles, fathered a child by each of the women then threatened them with death when they asked for child support, assistant Crown attorney Paul Zambonini said yesterday.
"Rev. Lawrence abused his position of power, trust or authority to have sex," he told a Superior Court jury as he opened the Crown's case.
Lawrence has pleaded not guilty to two counts of sexual assault, four of threatening death and one of assault in incidents alleged to have occurred between 2000 and 2005.
"I hid under my bed with my newborn baby for three months and I didn't want to go outside because I thought this man was capable of killing me," testified a 29-year-old woman, who cannot be named.
At age 17, ill with constant vomiting and migraines, the complainant was taken to Lawrence by her mother.
He said a woman had cursed her and that he could heal her, she said.
First came spiritual baths, she said. He instructed her to buy liquor, fruit and other goods from the folk magic store he ran on St. Clair Ave. W. near Keele St. He put the ingredients into a spiritual bath, for which he charged $150.
While she bathed naked, he scrubbed her while she recited, "The Lord is my shepherd." He ordered her to stand and rubbed her with a brown ointment, she said.
She started to get better, she said, and believed he had great powers. "I saw him as a saviour," she said.
During the third bath, he decapitated a pigeon and poured its blood over her head, she said.
Then he gave her a foul-tasting medicine that made her vomit and have diarrhea for two days, she said.
He explained it was the evil coming out.
The prosecutor told the jury she will testify that in 2003, she asked to stay at his house after she left home following a fight with her mother.
He let her live there, but forced sex upon her. She complied, fearing his powers, Zambonini said.
When she had his child and asked him for child support he threatened to kill her, the prosecutor said.
A second woman is expected to testify that he had sex with her during healing.

We are saddened to report that our friend and artist Ruth Lomon past away on Tuesday after a long battle with illness.
Ruth Lomon was a Canadian Native out of Montreal and attended the le Conservatoire fe Quebec and McGill University. From there, she continued her studies at the New England Conservatory of Music, studying under Frances Judd Codee, and then moved onto Darington College in England where she studied under Witold Lutoslawski.
Lomon's music consists of orchestral, chamber, vocal, solo works, and multimedia compositions. For many years, Lomon and her husband Earle lived in New Mexico where she became interested in the music of Native Americans. Her experience living in New Mexico is often reflected in her work.
Back in March of this year, Lomon released her debut PARMA album SHADOWING on Navona Records. The album showcases her remarkable skill in writing for the piano, pushing the instrument's timbre and color to its limits to create animated sound worlds such as those of the title work, Shadowing.
The album was received wildly by major platforms such as Gramophone and Woman's Philharmonic Agency.
The #May edition of #gramophonemagazine arrived this #morning! Happy to see an amazing #review on this #rainyday for #composer and #pianist #RuthLomon's #March #newrelease SHADOWING: "Excellent performances and fine sound."
Ruth Lomon was awarded grants from Massachusetts Council of the Arts, New England Foundation for the Arts, The New Mexico Arts Division, National Endowment for the Arts, and many others.
Since 1998, Lomon served as the composer and resident scholar at the Women's Studies Research Center at Brandeis University.
One of Lomon's most popular works, Songs of Remembrance, which is a song cycle of poems about the Holocaust, was premiered at the John Knowles Paine Concert Hall at Harvard University. The works have since been performed at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in D.C. and at the IAWM (International Alliance of Women in Music) Congress in London. Song of Remembrance received the Miriam Gideon Composition Award.
We will miss our friend, however, she will forever be remembered through her robust musical legacy.
Read Ruth Lomon's obituary here.
Abiquiu Chamber Music Festival has programmed an extensive tribute to Ruth throughout our 2018 season. One of her works will be performed on four of our concerts: Shadowing (piano quartet), (Re)Weavings (Native Flute and Mixed Quartet, Masks (solo piano) and Imprints (piano concerto with 4 percussion). Individual tickets become available March 15th. Be advised that the summer season is usually Sold Out by June.

War in the Liberal Ranks: Have a Good Laugh!
It's a real knee-slapper!
The feminists are upset. Bruce Jenner, aka Caitlyn, is slated to be Glamour Magazine's "woman" of "the year. And for once we hear a feminist, Germaine Greer, speaking the truth:
Jenner isn't a woman, says Greer. He's just attention-starved and seeking to steal the limelight from the women in the Kardashian family....Unsurprisingly, Greer sees sexism at the root of the celebration of Caitlyn Jenner: "I think misogyny plays a really big part in all of this, that a man who goes to these lengths to become a woman will be a better woman than someone who is just born a woman."
So, in retribution, Germaine Greer, who has supported censorship of conservatives in the past is now a pariah among liberals for daring to question that a man who feels like a woman is really a woman. She's right; he's not. And now she's reaping the whirlwind for speaking the truth. It really is funny! Off with her head! The new feminists just can't imagine a person not being able to create his/her own reality. Who cares if it isn't real as long as it feeeeeeels real?
This battle will be entertaining to watch. It just goes to show what happens when intelligent thought goes out the window in favor of politically correct nonsense. The liberals are now eating each other. That's what the devil always does. Once he's got you, he uses you and then destroys you.
Laugh and then pray -- we don't want anyone to fall into hell. Pray for the conversion of sinners through the intercession of Blessed Francisco and Jacinto Marto. "O my God I offer all that I do for love of you, the conversion of sinners, and in atonement for sins against the Immaculate Heart of Mary."

Are you serious? I think you're the one who is missing reality. You didn't notice all the publicity surrounding Bruce Jenner's makeover? It wasn't just Glamour Magazine. It was a tsunami of coverage. He's the darling of the pro-gender ideology crowd which is most liberals.
As for no liberals caring, they sure do on campus. Germaine Greer is getting the boot from campuses falling all over themselves to disinvite her from speaking.
Glamour Magazine naming Bruce Jenner "woman of the year" was just the flash point.
Do you have legitimate sources to support your statement that liberals are at war with one another? New York Times provide any coverage? BBC? NPR?
You're funny. The New York Times a legitimate source? NPR? When I stop laughing I'll respond.

Teaching is a dynamic profession that involves many different skills, theories, and techniques. This makes it easy, according to Melissa Newberry, to overlook the personal relationships between teachers and students. Student-teacher relationships have more power than many realize to positively impact a student's learning experience.
Newberry, a faculty member in the Department of Teacher Education, published an article in Teaching and Teacher Education on the importance of building and maintaining positive, healthy, student-teacher relationships. The article draws from her year-long experience observing and researching a second-grade elementary school classroom for her dissertation at Ohio State University.
Newberry's article focuses on the relationship between the teacher and a particularly behaviorally challenging student of that class. In it, she highlights the steps that were taken throughout the year to ensure that the student had a positive learning experience. The boy was assigned to this teacher's class because he had previously been identified as a "problem child" due to severe behavioral issues, and the teacher had dealt well in the past with students who had such problems.
The teacher chose to act on the boy's needs—especially those she felt were at the heart of the problems that were causing his misbehavior. This meant focusing on the student-teacher bond. With time, their relationship became a higher priority than the teacher techniques she chose to use with him.
In her article Newberry highlights the actions and behaviors by which the teacher built a positive relationship with the student. She identifies four important phases in the iterative process of building a relationship that will allow relationships to flourish like the one she observed. Each phase requires one-on-one personal interaction between teacher and student.
Appraisal. In this phase the teacher gets to know and understand the student and identifies the kinds of goals and rules that will need to be set.
Agreement. The teacher and student then establish the terms, boundaries, rules, and goals of their relationship; they define their individual roles as well.
Testing. During this phase the student tests the terms set during the agreement phase.
Planning. The planning phase involves making adjustments to the relationship and setting plans to move the relationship along to healthy levels.
The four stages Newberry outlines help teachers adapt to the various needs of different students, as teachers revisit these phases until progress is made. The teacher she studied did an excellent job adapting to student needs, especially as she took time to build trust with her students and their parents. In turn they respected her and the agreements they had made in establishing their relationships.
By the end of the year, the teacher's hard work and dedication paid off. The relationship transformed from what was at first adversarial and confrontational to a trusting and cooperative partnership. The "problem child" became a model student who excelled in his schoolwork.


The question of who gets what and why is inherently political, and therefore requires a much deeper of analysis of where power lies in our society.
'New Thinking for the British Economy' – a new eBook published today by openDemocracy – brings together leading thinkers to outline the broad pillars of a new post-neoliberal agenda, and the type of policies that are needed to get us there. While there are matters for continued contestation, it is clear that a consensus on the broad outlines of a new political economy are beginning to emerge. This is an economy that embodies in its basic institutional structures the foundational principles of democracy, equality, subsidiarity, resilience and sustainability. This more democratic economy is inclusive and participatory, pays attention to matters of scale and decentralisation, and is plural, allowing for the innovation of new economic forms and approaches at different levels. It involves building new, democratic models of ownership and control of key resources and decision-making across the economy. This new economy is also radically green and sustainable, living safely within ecological limits and boundaries. It is informed by a politics and ideology that leans towards the pragmatic and practical, with a strong non-sectarian solutions-orientation.

Brilliant New Atomic Blonde Featurette Arrives

With just over a week to go until the film's UK release, we are delighted to debut the new featurette "David Percival Has Gone Feral" for Atomic Blonde, a breakneck action-thriller that follows MI6's most lethal assassin through a ticking time bomb of a city simmering with revolution and double-crossing hives of traitors. The featurette documents interviews and behind-the-scenes footage of Charlize Theron's training and martial arts choreography.
The crown jewel of Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Oscar® winner Charlize Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality, and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies.
A blistering blend of sleek action, gritty sexuality and dazzling style, Atomic Blonde is directed by David Leitch (John Wick, upcoming Deadpool 2). Also starring John Goodman, Til Schweiger, Eddie Marsan, Sofia Boutella and Toby Jones, the film is based on the Oni Press graphic novel "The Coldest City," by Antony Johnston & illustrator Sam Hart. Kurt Johnstad (300) wrote the screenplay.

That's right! We have made it to the Dawn of the Viking Age! In this episode we will explore the first Viking Raids on Western Europe - the killing of the King's Reeve in Portland in Dorset, and the Notorious Sacking of the Monastery of Lindisfarne.
We will talk about the bloody events themselves, the reactions of Western Europeans to the attacks, and set the stage for a discussion of the causes of these Viking Raids. I hope you are as excited as I am. Let's do it!
New timeline, new release schedules and new logos - Oh My! Three short minutes - then back to the Viking Age!
In this episode we are going to do a lightning-tour through the Scandinavian Iron Age - beginning around 500 BCE and ending around 800 CE with the first Viking Raids. This period, spanning over 1000 years, is chocked full of political, technological, economic and cultural change in the North.
The goal of this episode is to provide a baseline understanding of the period which directly preceded the Viking Age, not for the test, but rather to give you a framework to work from when I start blabbering on about the Iron Age in later episodes.
In this episode we are going to explore the Game of Chiefdoms in the Nordic Bronze Age. Specifically look at the growing social and economic stratification which is defining of this age. We will look at how such inequality in wealth and power can develop, how such power can be maintained once achieved and the consequences of this growing inequality on society at large.
In this episode we will becovering the period from about 3500 - 2800 BCE, when Agriculturereally took hold in Scandinavia. We will explore what settlementpatterns emerged, how agriculture was practiced and how thenewly-minted Scandinavian farmers formed a relationship with theland they cultivated.
In the process we will learn about the impact of Polished FlintAxes and the Ard, take a tour of a Stone Age Farmhouse and becomeacquainted with the construction of Megalithic tombs which arestill visible today, almost 6000 years later.
The farming life was hard duringthis period, and the goal of this episode is to both bring thatstark reality to life. While doing so we will also explore some ofthe ways in which early Farmers adapted to this life, and the waysin which created relationships with their own past as well as theland they worked.


Honoring the law more than any other, a scion of holy order and condemner of criminals. Created in opposition to Knight-Star Pashtarot, scion of light. He turns his deep, abiding hatred for those who break the law into living darkness, therein to plunge the guilty in fell judgment. Over time, he came to care less for upholding the law and more for condemnation, and so tainted by hate, he sought to condemn the gods themselves to death. Thus did he earn the title of "The Condemner," and thus did he fall from grace.
Previously seen in: Final Fantasy IV as the final boss.
Location: Stilshrine of Miriam, Throne of Veiled Gods. Several steps to do before you can encounter him: First, talk to an acolyte near the temple on Mt Bur-Omisace. He'll give you the "Stone of the Condemner". Now, return to the Stilshrine of Miriam, touch the Way Stone in "Ward of Measure", and use the Stone of the Condemner when the Way Stone prompts you to. You'll be warped to Throne of Veiled Gods, and upon entering the room, be thrust into battle.
Advice: "Dark Lords" (Level 47, HP 4616, Undead, Weak: Holy) frequently spawn around Zeromus over the course of the fight. Zeromus himself is a bit of a cakewalk, even without magicks. Just make sure your magick-based gambits are set to items... main items of interest should be X-Potions (for curing - they should be buyable at this point in the game), Phoenix Downs (for reviving), and Chronos Tear (to remove Stop). If you really want to, use Motes as a way of getting around the no-magicks rule. But other than frequently-spawning Dark Lords, his gravity attacks are endurable and there shouldn't be too much of a problem.


The pack had remained within the confines of the north for sometime and finally the pack started off further north, to follow the instructions given by Calder to head to the Mykeer where it was told their missing Alphess was. A new male wolf had come upon the pack by the name of Kyseran. Nightshade had also managed to catch up with the pack and now joins them in their temporary move.
* Ayaka would ease a bit as Kyseran cowered, the pose one that indicated he didn't wish to fight them. She caught Kova and Kajika's scent mingling with the brutes own, which lended a hand in her hackles lowering some, her muzzle closing over her teeth as she settled into a slightly more relaxed frame. The shift would be only subtle however, and she would consider the group, nodding to Kova before looking at Kyseran * Ayaka again. "I see.. one can never be too careful in the wild. I'm sure you will understand our caution. There are games afoot that are mysterious even now. Trust must be earned. I am Ayaka, member of wolfspirits." She conceded her name, venturing the token of peace to Kyseran for the time being before looking around to the others. "It is time to move on." She added to them all. "Shukie has bade me to lead you onward, as she takes Kwa`ani on a more… covert approach on Calder's assumed position, based on Fianna's report. She waited to see if anyone had questions or anything to say, reaching forward to nuzzle her sister in a fond greeting. She was glad the fae had been there to greet the stranger, as well keep an eye on him.
* Kova would perk her ears to her sisters words and would offer a wave of her tail. She held a great deal of confidence in her sisters ability to lead them on further. She thought that their mission would be interesting but wouldn't question it. 'I am ready' she offered up to Ayaka as well to anyone else who was within earshot.
* Darth would look up to Ayaka and turn around ready to move at the word. He looked around as everyone started to get ready and looked back up to Ayaka. "I'm ready whenever every other member is." He said aloud. He knew that they have probably stayed in this spot for longer than they should have.. He would nuzzle Nightshade once more; "Ready to continue the adventure?" He asked with a chuckle.
* Nightshade weakened, the rest will take care of her.
* skydancer "sure thing ayaka I was starting to grow roots over here anyway. ready when you guys are." she. response to the larger fea bit of information.
* Darth would look around for his sister, but couldn't see her in his brief search. He could only hope that she was awake and ready to continue on.
* Kova would look to the gathered wolves and would dip her head. There where at least two more than before and she was glad for the company for the most part but she would remain skeptical of Kyseran for a little while. Only until he could prove he meant no harm and did desire to join the pack. Especially during this time of the season she had her reasons to be skeptical. She did worry for Fianna's wellbeing and would no doubt keep an eye on her as well but was glad to see that she looked to be in better spirits than before. Healing wise!
* Kyseran looks up at Ayaka not moving from his position out of fear. "Is it okay for me to tag along? I have nowhere else to go." He asks, he was afraid that Ayaka would reject him like the other packs he met.
* Kajika turned his head as he heard the sound of snow scuffled and turned his head over his shoulder to see Sky as she woke up from what looked like it could have been a bad dream, but would turn his attention to Ayaka as she spoke. At Shukie's name, he would flick his ear when he noticed that she wasn't there among them but was sure that she would catch up in time. He didn't have any questions for once, or if he had, he kept them to himself, trusting that they would sort themselves out soon enough. As everyone voiced their readiness to move forward, and would silently go to get his bundle of leaves that was growing smaller and smaller as one of his tasks while awake but not doing anything had just been picking through the leaves and bark to see if anything had lost its use. He'd return a moment later and offer a silent nod of his head in Ayaka's direction. On his way to get the bundle, something did come to mind that he noticed they had done before and put the bundle down hesitantly to ask her. "Will we be walking in any particular order like we were last time? I'll volunteer to push my way through the snow just like I did on our journey out here." He offered.
<Calder> Would continue to watch the wolves as they moved about but all of them seemed to be in the mindset of something. Where they finally moving? Oh good! He thought before he too rose to all fours and there would wait for them to start off before he would make his move.
* Kova an ear turned towards Kyseran and his request and would then look to Ayaka, curious now of her response. so far the male had given her no issues nor any reason to question his presence there but he was after all still new and like all the other wolves would have to get used to the pack and family he desired to join. It was a process but for her, well worth it. This pack and family was worth it. With her own order given in line she gave a firm nod of her head understanding her role for now and promptly turned on lithe white paws and started off towards the back of the group. Once there she would wait paitently for them to start moving again.
* Kyseran nods. "Thank you Ayaka, I'm not that strong, but if you need anything, I am willing to help." He gets up slowly, and gets ready for the trek. Smiling to himself, grateful that he might have a pack to call home.
* Darth nodded his head to Ayaka in understanding. He looked to his sister as she chuffed towards him as he got into his assigned position.
* skydancer dips her muzzle not having expected anything else and starts moving away toward where sfiannas description tells them to go atleast the snow seems a little sturdier though that can just be e imgintion .
* kamaitachi larcom would wake up stiff and would notice that the pack was moving off not wanting to be left behind she slowly stood up that it a ways behind them as a move.
<Nighshade> "H..hello. sorry I popped in between. Im" She asked while she kept a distance and whispered at Darth " who is that?" Her tail wagged of excitement yet also from nervousness.
* Kajika picked up his bundle and nodded as he understood where he would be positioned in this wolfy column and moved to take up that spot on the right. He himself would have nothing to say to Calder if they came across him. He would glance back over his shoulder to check to see that the group was ready before they would head out. The area around where they chose to settle now was imprinted in the snow as their tracks led in and out of their little hiding place, so the first few steps would be the easiest of the evening with little to do besides pad on.
* Nighshade "H..hello. sorry I popped in between. Im Nighshade a lost pledge who are you?" She asked while she kept a distance and whispered at Darth " who is that?" Her tail wagged of excitement yet also from nervousness.
The wolves would start to march off towards the northern territory beyond the pack's own. It would be a bitter cold out in the open as the snow and cold still very much clung on to this part of the world. Little did the pack know there where several eyes upon them, not just belonging to Calder and other new wolves. The open expanse would call to them as the pack began to move.
* Darth would look to Nghtshade and chuckle; "That is my sister, Kamaitachi; don't worry, here bark is worse than her bite." He said to her before allowing Kamaitachi to introduce herself further if she wanted.
* Fianna would flick her ears at Ayaka's warning, but lowered her head a fraction in acquiescence. She would take precautions, though her instincts bade her follow Calder, to seek out the answers to the mysteries he offered. But she had her mother's blood, and the widsom gained from life among her pack. She would take care. With this in mind she moved into line and padded quietly along, listening to the others as they talked quietly. She took measure of her injury and found movement much easier now, onlt a slight hitch in her step signaling the tightness that still clung to her injured ribs. The horrid and itchy ache had lessened a good deal, leaving her mind more free to wander. She was grateful still for those ahead who broke trail, for bounding through the snows still sounded painful. Unaware of the eyes upon their group, she found her mind continually going back to a certain mysterious frame and eyes that knew too much.
* Ayaka payment for us to find Atraya or even cross his lands?" This had become her worry.. for she knew Fianna would take such measures if she thought it would help her mother. The pack needed to find the alphess, but not at the cost of Fianna being in danger. But what if her safety were somehow guaranteed? In any case, nothing was certain, and Calder presented a mystery for sure.
* skydancer moves along sometimes having to bound to get through some deeper snow though not so much that she feels the other,ll have trouble with it. although she keeps her nose in the wind and often pauses to listen she cant detect anything out of place.not that she is about to let the flat area lul her into complacency too much is at stake.
* Nighshade looked back at darths sister and respond "nice to meet you." And stared forward to the rest of the pack, hoping we aren't blindly following that calder and not simply assuming he would make his words true. Strangers aren't trusting. He's sure no good if he's a trickster, seeing how Fianna is eager for answers, she was worried about how this will end. " I hope that we have a back-up if calder picks on of us for him* Nighshade alone" she called forward to the rest.
<Calder> When the pack began to make their move he would have waited a moment longer before promptly following after them. HIs eyes narrowed as he would eye the new male among them and seemingly now "More" of them joining the ranks. Well this would no doubt complicate things but he didn't make it this far to fail now. Fail he would not. Quietly he would follow now behind the wolves in their very tracks staying at least a mile behind and using what cover he could.
* Kajika would focus on what path lay before him as he started along. Some of the words of the others would reach his ears but he made no acknowledgement of hearing them and didn't know what to say to ease their uncertainty. It wouldn't take long before they were out in the open and he found himself looking beyond what he had normally seen as he busied himself with keeping his muzzle up and out of the snow that his chest heaved out of the way for those behind him. He wouldn't be too far from Sky which would hopefully leave snow weak enough in the middle of the two of them to be broken easily. The sense of traveling and a journey seemed to be ahead of him and he took in a lungful of air and couldn't imagine what would stand in their way now.
* Darth would look to Nightshade and smile; "I would certainly hope that the leads would have other contingent plans and not be leading us to a close end ordeal." He said with a slight chuckle. He looked to his sister and made sure that she was alright before taking a look around to make sure the rest of the group was well.
As the wolves would traverse the expansive landscape they would find the chill of winter still clinging well to this place. There wasn't much in the way of life but there where tracks that lead every which direction once they reached the middle of this wide open expanse. Clearly wildlife used this as a makeshift highway but all the tracks would divert in every direction except in the direction of the WolfSpirits territory. As if there was some unforseen barrier there. Will the pack keep going? Or stop to investigate?
* Fianna would have heard snatches of Kova and Ayaka's conversation about her and Calder and mother. She felt her heart squeeze a bit at the difficult choices ahead, for her and for the pack. She had a duty to her pack, she knew, and she had a strong loyalty to each of them. Yet her mother, her father, her brother… they werr blood. What would she do if she could help them at the expense of disobeying a pack order? Hopefully she wouldn't have to decide that. Hopefully her loyalties were not tested. She shuddered inwardly at the idea, angry suddenly at Calder for asking her to come alone. What was his game anyway? She snorted, sending a flurry of snow around her paws. Yet she still was intrigued by him. He would not hold sway over her loyalties though, she could not let such a thing be.
* Kova would dip her head to Ayaka sharing the same sentiments. She would watch her make her way along the line now as she would start to greet all the others. She would remain in the back and every now and then she stopped and looked over her shoulder for any 'wandering' males that tried to track or trail behind them. She was on to Calder, at least she thought she was. When Ayaka would find the trail ahead she would watch with curious hues as she too came to a slow stop to investigate the ones near to her.
<Calder> As the wolves continued on the path ahead he would smile as he took note of their direction. It seems they where going in the right one for now and he would be content in watching with his deep, piercing amber hues. He continued to keep up the pace of following well behind all the others. What the pack didn't know was there where more eyes upon them then just his.
* Kajika glanced over at Sky as she had to take a little detour around a small mound of snow that rivaled her in height, no doubt piled up from the winds building up snow in this particular spot just like anywhere else. He heard the sound of approaching paw steps and turned to see Ayaka approaching him and her words were spoken in a thankful tone and he smiled and tried to reply around the charge he carried in his muzzle. He wasn't sure what words would make it across, but he hoped that the kindness could be felt as he would try to nose her back before she turned to Sky with a similar thanks. As Sky would come to a short stop, he would only continue to walk up to her and wouldn't move ahead. He had noticed some of the tracks but it seemed like the more they continued, the more it seemed to follow a pattern almost of not just the meander of a herd but almost the intent of a predator perhaps? He would try to sniff the closest set of tracks but the action was almost as good as tasting the tracks and guessing what they could have been because of the challenge that it was to smell anything besides the strong scent of mint present on a few of the leaves and bark in his jaws, even if only a leaf or two was all that remained of the strong-smelling herbs. But maybe the size of the tracks would give him a hint as to what it was?
* Darth would be continuing to follow Skydancer and Kajika wherever they would lead. He trusted the two of them as well as the other members to go where they needed to be.
* Nighshade pace went a bit slower, this was the first big walk for her. Trying to catch up with the pack she trots a bit faster. "Any idea how long it takes?" She asked impatient and chuffeds. She was truly amazed by the surrounding and got distracted.
As the wolves decide to press on they would find that the world around them was starting to fall into beautiful golden yellow, orange and bright pink hues as the sun started to fall behind the tall Rogah's. They would slowly find their way closer and closer to the opposing mountain ranges and start to make an incline along a wide open path that started to narrow back into the woods. The trees would be dusted with beautiful strips of snow as well as even some colors of spring starting to poke through thinner portions of winter. All within eye's reach and distance as well. They where getting close to the forests edge.
* Nighshade "I'm fine" was she responded to ayaka as she pulled up herself to hold on. A beautiful horizon was filled with a orange pink sky, it almost looked it was on fire " wow.. it looks like a fire" she was impressed by everything she saw now. In the distance were some trees getting visible but realizing that it's not near enough yet. She tries to stay with the pack aslong it's possible, "aslong we're near enough by some. I will take a rest for a while. No worries " she huffed and continues her way, something made felt her uneasy.. were they being watched? Looking around to see if there are any things.. She wouldn't see anything. "Hmmm.." was her response.
* Fianna would continue on, quietly, inhaling the sharp scents of the crisp air, and watching the tracks as they passed by. She saw the beautiful colors on the horizon, and wondered if Atraya were watching it as well. "Hold on mother." She whispered softly. She felt her side growing a bit sore from the quickened pace, but found she was able to maintain it without feeling as if any damage would be done. She was glad for the movement, hoping each mile would bring her closer to rescuing Atraya.
* Kova would continue only after the pack had moved on. She would keep looking behind her as she would listen intently to the winds and world around her but she couldn't help but be humbled by the sky and it's changing colors. She would look to Fianna now and think quietly up on her future as well as all the rest of theirs.
* Kajika his eyes when it hit the trees, making everything appear a bright shade of orange and the snow underpaw even moreso. The tracks didn't spook him, but he would look out for anything similar moving forward, at least as they continued traveling for the night. He would also start to look over his shoulder when they reached the treeline to make sure that he maintained visibility with even those in the back. Would accomplish this by making several bounds forward and then turned to look behind as well as around him and would wait for them to catch up. He wasn't rushing them by doing this he hoped, but he would be able to see around the group instead of relying on multitasking of both taking in their surroundings as they moved.
<Calder> He continued to follow after the traveling pack, his eyes narrowed upon the horizon as he took all the details in. The light was starting to dim and offer beautiful warm colors across the sky. He would smile knowing what the night held out in this distance and would start to slow his pace considerably. When he noted all the other wolves began to ascend into the forest he would pause his own path yet again and start to move towards the east now from the rest of the pack.
* Fianna felt herself ease slightly as they began to be surrounded by trees once more, though that held its own hazards if not being able to see as far, she also felt shielded somewhat from so man unknown eyes. She glanced over her shoulder at Kova, reassured the fae was nearby, as well as those ahead of her. They were a pack. They would meet any challenge.
* Ayaka would urge the others to continue on, seeing some looking tired, but she wanted to get a bit further, and she would brush her muzzle along shoulders and offer encouragement when necessary, all the while glancing around and remaining watchful. She kept an eye on skydancer and Kajika should they notice anything out of the ordinary, and continued on deeper into the forest, still following what seemed to be a fair size path.
* skydancer jogs along head up and alert while knowing she opens herself up for ambuah and thus constantly returns. to within sight of the pack before turninf bacj around and scouting the next part of their trail. if anythinf for her to find. shell find it before the trouble finds her pack.hopefully..
One by one the wolves would continue to press through the forest and tall woods over head. The light began to filter behind them but slowly started to wither into darkness. Ayaka would find there was nothing unusual or out of the ordinary in this part of the woods, at least not until they started to find themselves deeper in the woods. As the woods began to fill with the void of darkness as nighttime began to descend upon the wolves, there was a new hue of color that began to strike across the landscape. Beautiful hues of greens and blues started to streak against the woods and landscape with ease and beauty. The illumination was like no other out here, even with the tree's, it would be beautiful. Aurora's over head would flicker and start to come to life and turn the world of white and pink to those striking colors of blue and teal. The resounding caws of crows would no doubt take the wolves attention momentarily as the woods began to become thicker and no longer at the mercy of the wide open spaces. Fianna might find that these very woods almost started to resemble her birth den site.
* Kajika would set the bundle down at his paws just to give his jaws a break for a moment when he was ahead. He thought from any other perspective, he looked like an excited pup as he would bound forward and turn to wait. His tail wasn't wagging like a pup's might, but it wouldn't have been completely still even if the wind didn't play a part in blowing through the fur there. He would see Sky returning from off the side of the trail that he was leading them through and figured that she was scouting out areas not just straight ahead but off to the side. As the trees would enclose them in what seemed like safety, it could also hide the eyes of any number of creatures that hid downwind if left unchecked. And Ayaka made her way through and around the group herself which was the only reason he wasn't doing so himself. He tried to fight back the feeling of overconfidence, but it didn't look like anything would be sneaking up on them tonight. He would sometimes also get distracted momentarily by the lights that he first noticed to be unnatural on any normal evening. But taking the time to look up, he would see the lights surely dancing across the sky and he would stop in his tracks for a moment. He had only seen this occur maybe once? Or had he imagined it in dreams as he was certainly told stories about it as a pup? It was hard to tell as the spectacle seemed to be woven into a dream itself.
* Kova would give a knowing nod towards Fianna understanding well her worry for her alpha and as well her mother "I am sure she is fine Fianna. Your mother is strong… just like you are" she smiled and nosed the fae "You remind me a lot like her." she tried to offer her some comfort and momentarily glanced up towards the horizon and the colors in the sky. 'Oh wow..' she whispered.
* Ayaka 's gaze would be drawn from the trees and snow to the sky, the horizon, and the beautiful green dancing of light that was on display. Her paws would slow as it began, and she felt the awe and wonder of it all within her. She glanced back to the others, counting, making sure all were there even as she watched them all notice the lights as well. "Its beautiful" she said, softly, but enough so that those around her could hear. Kajika seemed caught up in it for a moment and she could understand why. "A bit further now.." she added, keeping them on task, for they didn't want to be caught unawares still. The path north would continue to stretch and they had to wind a bit around some trees until it straightened out again, enclosed now among the forest. The lights lit the scene, casting its glow on snow, trees, and fur alike. Eventually, a break in the trees ahead became apparent, and Ayaka would murmur for the group to slow a bit, moving forward with caution.
* Fianna would indeed feel her heart swell a bit at Kova's words. She wanted so to be like Atraya, the strong leader of her pack. It was a great compliment. Fianna too would catch her breath at the sight of the beautiful lights, movinf gracefully beyond and around them, through the trees. "Its…" she'd seen the lights before, but it felt… closer now. "Its amazing." The snow was not as deep here under the canopy of trees and it allowed for her to walk more along with everyone else, the trail not needing to be broken. However she was mindful of Shukie and Ayaka's warnings and hung back from the front. What would be ahead?
As the wolves continued along the chosen path through the woods, they would find that there would be a nice little spot that was open enough to provide them some space but also, enclosed to feel safe. The sky over head would still continue to glimmer with the beautiful colors of the aurora's. The little clearing up ahead would no doubt provide a nice resting spot for the pack if they choose to stay here for the evening. The trees would cast a nice shadow across the little clearing so that sneaking upon them would be difficult at best. There where several rocks to seek shelter if it got windy as well. As each wolf came into the little clearing they would find that their paws became heavy and tired with fatigue from the travel and there rest for the night. Each wolf taking their place where they thought was most comfortable.
* Fianna would reach the clearing, feeling sheltered from a bit of the wind and such as well. She would release a long breath, glad to stop in the end for her ribs needed a break, even though they were healing. Settling down just to Ayaka's right dhe would press against the base of a large and wisened tree, listening to the breeze sway the branches. The place reminded her of her birth, of the old growth and ancient trees. Her heart ached for her family as she remembered, and it woult take her some time, though tired, to fall asleep.
* Kova would come to the rear and wait until all the wolves made it safely. She would dip her head to Ayaka and smile, nuzzling her fondly back in return. "Aye, but you're doing just fine. We're a family and strong together as one. I think this really highlights that. I don't think many packs can work this way together without their leaders." she would nose her again "We are confident in them that we know they'll return to us safe and to lead us again." she would find herself a nice seat beside a tall birch and some stones near the 'entrance' to the clearing. She would take up sentry there.
The rock just concealed by the fifth tree from the right looks comfortable. On the side opposite of the winds as they are right now would be where Kajika would lay down to rest, or wherever he could see as much of the pack as possible.

California Automobile Museum Founders Day
The California Automobile Museum has celebrated Its First-Ever Founders Day with a special event honoring its founders and sharing with the public a bit of Sacramento history.
"There was a great fear from those of us who were responsible for founding the Museum that the origin of the Museum would be lost, so this event is a way to reenact the joy of bringing a car museum to Sacramento," says founder Dick Ryder. "It is an honor and brings such satisfaction to be part of this event and the California Automobile Museum," states Ryder.
About the California Automobile Museum: The California Automobile Museum, formerly the Towe Auto Museum, is a spacious 72,000 square foot museum, home to over 150 vehicles of various makes and models, ranging from the early 1900s to alternative power vehicles of the future. The Museum's mission is to educate and entertain while preserving and promoting the automobile and its influence on our lives. The Museum is open daily from 10am to 6pm, taking the last admission at 5pm and stays open until 9pm every third Thursday.

Marie Dean, 50, is being held at HMP Preston, Lancashire, where she is protesting over what she claims is a "nightmare" refusal of the Ministry of Justice to recognise she is a woman.
In a letter, dated 17 January and sent from inside the jail to friends, Dean describes feeling dehumanised and, making reference to Bobby Sands, the IRA hunger striker who died in the Maze prison in 1981, said she would rather die than be denied her chosen gender. This follows the suicides of at least three trans women in all-male prisons during the past year.
Dean has been diagnosed with gender dysphoria and serving an indeterminate sentence for public protection (IPP) after being convicted of more than 30 offences including repeated burglary and voyeurism. Her crimes included breaking into several homes and filming herself wearing underwear belonging to teenage girls. The judge at her trial said she engaged in "behaviour that anyone is bound to find chilling".
Dean also claims prison officials "refused to give hair straighteners, epilator or any makeup". Her letter surfaces after details emerged last month of how a group of four trans women prisoners at all-male HMP Doncaster agreed a suicide pact because of their alleged treatment inside. An inquest heard how one, Jenny Swift, was found hanged in her cell days after pulling out of the pact, while another told the coroner's court that trans prisoners were "bullied by staff" at the prison, but "no-one was listening". Friends and family have not heard from Dean since receiving the letter and are increasingly worried for her welfare.
A statement from friends, demanding that the MoJ respect the rights of trans people to prevent further tragedy, read: "We specifically request that Marie Dean has her identity as a woman immediately returned to her and that it is respected by all staff, to be given back her clothes and her makeup to allow her to maintain her dignity and for her to be moved into the female estate as quickly as possible. Leaving her in the male estate will subject her to yet more abuse, distress and transphobic behaviour.
"The truth is it appears that the Ministry of Justice are unwilling to give up judging for themselves what gender a person is regardless as to how long the person has lived in their chosen gender.
Last year the MoJ introduced guidelines for the treatment of trans prisoners, stating that individual dignity should be respected and all cases should be reviewed within three days of arrival in custody to determine where they would be best placed and that, unless a particular concession is a demonstrable risk to safety, it should be permitted.

TUESDAY: Consumers Rally at 40+ Apple Stores to Protest DOJ Demand for Weakening iPhone Security Features
Posted February 22, 2016 at 1:21 PM
Media Advisory For: February 23, 2016
Evan Greer, 978-852-6457, press@fightforthefuture.org
Christina DiPisquali, 202-716-1953 (backup number)
Protesters will Carry Giant 10-foot iPhone-Shaped Banners Reading "Don't Break Our Phones." In Washington, DC, Protesters will Gather at FBI Headquarters
Concerned iPhone users and digital security supporters will gather at Apple stores in more than 40 cities this Tuesday, February 23rd, exactly one week after the Justice Department won a court order that attempts to force Apple to write software that would undermine the safety and security of millions of people.
See a map listing the rallies in more than 40 cities here: DontBreakOurPhones.org
WHAT: Protesters will oppose the DOJ's demand carrying giant 10-foot long iPhone banners (see example), and iPhone shaped signs reading "FBI: Don't Break Our Phones" and "Secure Phones Save Lives." Participants will also be able to turn their phones, laptops, or tablets into a glowing protest sign using ProtestSign.org. The giant iPhone banners will be on hand in most of the larger cities, but not at every protest.
WHO: The rallies were called for by Fight for the Future and are supported by Demand Progress, CREDO, and other advocacy organizations.
The rallies are being organized in a grassroots manner by individuals who agree to host an event in their town. Fight for the Future then provides those members with banners and support with recruitment. More events are being added all the time, so check back before Tuesday if you don't see one in your area yet.
WHERE: Rallies are already planned across the U.S. in small cities like Anchorage, Alaska, and major ones including New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, Palo Alto at Apple's headquarters, Minneapolis, Philadelphia and Boston. Supporters outside the U.S. have planned rallies at Apple stores in Hong Kong, London, and Munich. In Washington, DC, protesters will gather at the FBI's headquarters, the J. Edgar Hoover building.
WHEN: Tuesday, February, 23 at 5:30pm local time
"People are rallying at Apple stores because giving the government easier access to our data, also gives everyone else, including terrorists, thieves and stalkers, easier access to our data–making all of us less safe, not more safe," said Evan Greer, campaign director of Fight for the Future. "The government's unconstitutional attack on our digital security could put millions of people in danger, so it's critically important that we support any fight to keep our most sensitive personal, medical, legal and financial information protected."
"Apple's stand today will help keep security threats at bay" said David Segal executive director of Demand Progress. "But we will all be less safe if the FBI succeeds at its politically expedient, but shortsighted, approach. Our devices will become more vulnerable and the sensitive data they hold will be more accessible to people who want it for malicious purposes."
This past Wednesday, after Fight for the Future issued the call for rallies at Apple stores, there was so much interest that they decided to organize one in San Francisco that day on just a few hours notice. Dozens of people turned out to protest the FBI's position. See photos here.
Fight for the Future and Demand Progress staff members are available for interviews ahead of the Tuesday rallies and can connect journalists with the hosts of rallies in specific cities upon request.
Fight for the Future works to defend the Internet as a free and open platform for expression and creativity, and is best known for their role organizing the massive online protests against SOPA, the Internet Slowdown for net neutrality, and the Reset The Net campaign for online privacy, which was endorsed by Edward Snowden.

Q: how can use local env variable in docker-compose how can i access to my os env variable in docker compose?
in my os:
export TOKEN=""
sudo docker-compose up
# WARNING: The TOKEN variable is not set. Defaulting to a blank string.

docker-compose.yml
version: '3.8'

services:
  web:
    build:
      context: ../
      dockerfile: build/Dockerfile
    environment:
       - TOKEN=$TOKEN

A: It looks about right, environment variables you export in your shell for the compose process to be able to grab should be available to it. If you're having issues maybe changing one of the names would suffice?
I'm linking a thread from the docker forums on the issue

A: you can use
export ENV_VARIABLE=""

version: '3.8'

services:
  web:
    build:
      context: ../
      dockerfile: build/Dockerfile
    environment:
       - ENV_VARIABLE=$ENV_VARIABLE

your mistake was in using sudo !
just  run docker-compose up

By the end of the 19th century, this modern "Greco-Roman" wrestling style went on to become the most fashionable sport in Europe, and in 1898 the Frenchman Paul Pons, "the Colossus" became the first Professional World Champion.

COGHILL (formerly MAYNE), John (d.1785), of Richings Park, Bucks.
Published in The History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1754-1790, ed. L. Namier, J. Brooke., 1964
1780 - 14 Nov. 1785
m. in or after 1764, Hester, da. and h. of James Coghill, LL.D., wid. of Charles Moore, 1st Earl of Charleville [I], s.p. Assumed name of Coghill 6 Mar. 1779. cr. Bt. 24 Mar. 1781.
Cornet 14 Drag. (Ireland) 1734, capt. lt. 1754, maj. 1766; disappears from Army List 1771.
Coghill was returned unopposed for Newport on the Duke of Northumberland's interest. Shortly after his election in 1780 the English Chronicle wrote about him:
He ... went to Ireland in the suite of the Duke of Northumberland, when that nobleman was appointed the viceroy. Being remarkably handsome in his person, mild and engaging in his manners, he became in this situation not only an object of general regard amongst the men, but a peculiar favourite with the ladies. Amongst the rest, his personal accomplishments did not escape the attention of the Countess of Charleville, who became deeply enamoured with him, and of course soon yielded to his addresses, when he presented himself her suitor. He got a large fortune with this lady, and enjoys it with great esteem. His connexions in life will necessarily incline him to be ministerial in his political principles. He is not likely to make a distinguished figure as an orator in Parliament.
Coghill voted with the Administration on Lowther's motion against the war, 12 Dec. 1781, and the censure motion against the Admiralty, 20 Feb. 1782, but did not vote on the motions to end the war, 22 and 27 Feb. 1782, though he again supported North on the censure motions of 8 and 15 Mar. 1782. A letter from his wife to Shelburne, 6 Sept. 1782, states that Coghill believed that New York should be retained.1 He did not vote on Shelburne's peace preliminaries, 18 Feb. 1783, nor on Fox's East India bill, 27 Nov. 1783. In Robinson's list of January 1784, Stockdale's of 19 Mar., and Adam's of May he is classed as a Pittite. There is no record of his having spoken in the House. He died 14 Nov. 1785.
