Walking the streets of Yangon, there is an unmistakable smell of change in the air. As you work your way through the hazy smoke and clattering utensils of the street food vendors mixing local Burmese delicacies while chewing on Beetle nuts, you see the smiling face of the bus ticket collector, the direct gaze of the elderly woman arranging her mango stand, and the open embrace of the little girl pulling you over to see a treasured T-shirt that she thinks you can not refuse. Back at her stall, swaying in all its glory is the image of President Obama shadowing the Burmese freedom movement hero and Nobel Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi with large letters OBURMA above it.
Burma, or Myanmar as it has been known since 1989, is a country of 63 million people which provides the test case for the current administration's "Pivot to Asia policy". Now the people of Myanmar get to ask the question that those in the emerging nations of Middle East, Africa, and South America have asked before them: "Does America have the will and resources to help complete its commitment towards a democratic and free Myanmar?"
The stakes are high as Myanmar enjoys a privileged geopolitical position wedged between China and India which together comprise a third of the world's population and recent consistent growth engines.
Although most of the dialogue is taking place in the urban centers, Myanmar's real change has to come from the rural areas. Myanmar is no different than most of the emerging world's economies in that it may become a victim of its own success. As port cities like Dawei become major regional transit points for countries like Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, Myanmar will find itself building a rapid over-utilized road system that can bring cheap labor to the major port cities. This will invariably lead to an increasing incidence of trauma from over utilization of undeveloped roads and overpopulated minivans and motorbikes. With increasing need for an industrialized labor force, untrained workers will join working conditions with inadequate management and safety checks as demonstrated in the recent Bangladesh garment factory disaster at Rana Plaza.
There are over 300 million occupational injuries every year with an additional 50 million people injured annually in road traffic accidents according to a May 2013 article in the New England Journal of Medicine. In 2010, over 5 million people worldwide died from injuries which is 30% higher than the number of deaths caused by HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined. Ninety percent of these injuries occur in developing countries. World Health Organization has predicted that by 2030, road accidents will be the 5th leading cause of death worldwide. With each death it is estimated that there are 50 people with significant permanent disability essentially removing that person from the active workforce. At present around 25 percent of all hospital beds in developing countries are occupied by patients with road traffic injuries. This was certainly echoed by the recent visit of the surgical team of Mission: Restore which brings free education for complex reconstructive surgery for patients suffering from burns, accidents, trauma, and congenital or acquired defects.
At Yangon General Hospital founded by the British in 1927, you will find a dilapidated plastic surgery clinic with iron gates to keep out the stray dogs while families picnic outside on the grounds of the hospital waiting their turn to be seen by the understaffed but wonderfully attentive and dedicated plastic surgeons. Myanmar also represents the typical scenario of the emerging world surgical epidemiology where a country of 60 million people only has 6 reconstructive surgeons in 4 medical centers. The rapid economic growth of low and middle-income countries ensures that this trend will continue, probably even increase, for the foreseeable future. Health care systems of poor countries cannot cope with this surge of injured patients. During a recent visit, we noticed that the majority of the wards were filled with patients from road accidents, or domestic trauma that was initially poorly addressed by the district hospitals leading to infections or contractures that made the re-operative surgery more demanding and complicated. That is why Mission: Restore is focused on Myanmar to change this paradigm by training the trainers in health education to improve long-term outcomes.
In many ways Myanmar represents the best and the worst of the emerging world: A great country with an illustrious past and culture, motivated leadership, and a sympathetic world of investors who want to see it grow and prosper. On the other hand, a country that is simply not prepared enough to enter this global sprint to economic victory as it lacks the fundamental infrastructure to help it succeed. President Obama can make the rest of the world believe in "OBurma Care" by encouraging various NGOs to help build the infrastructure and health care and education needs of Myanmar over the next decade. This will require funding as well as strong cooperation through networks such as the Clinton foundation who have solid relationships in the region. The long-term success of the American "Pivot to Asia" will require a deep and long-term commitment to the region and there is no better place to show it than Myanmar.

Yarm and Our History
Yarm School was founded in 1978 and is now one of the country's best independent schools. It is located in the beautiful, prosperous and vibrant market town Yarm on the edge of the Teesside conurbation.
Our Senior School borders the River Tees and is just off Yarm High Street. The school is very much a part of the town, with pupils, staff and parents all enjoying what the buzzing high street has to offer by means of shops and cafes. Our Nursery, Pre-Prep and Preparatory School are all located on the opposite side of The Spital to the Senior School. All of our schools are just a stone's throw away from both town and countryside, including the nearby North York Moors, Yorkshire Dales and stunning coastline.
You can find all of our contact information and directions to the School here.
Yarm Town
Yarm's history is vast. Prior to the Tees Barrage, Yarm town was once an important crossing point of the River Tees and the bridge was the last crossing point of the tidal section of the river. The impressive viaduct is also a well-known local landmark.
Yarm is close to the A66 and A19, and is also a short drive away from Durham Tees Valley airport. With superb rail network links in the town itself and nearby, London is also only 2.5 hours away by direct train. Go west through Teesdale and within around an hour and a half you will find yourself in the world-famous Lake District, while it is a similar distance north to the wild and wonderful county of Northumberland.
Yarm, Middlesbrough and Darlington also offer plenty of shopping opportunities, with bigger centres like Leeds and Newcastle both just over an hour away. There is also a renowned modern art gallery in Middlesbrough and a historic theatre in Richmond. In addition, Durham and York are just short distance from Yarm.
Yarm has a huge amount of history and culture, including Hadrian's Wall, Jorvik Viking museum, and the Sage. So whatever your passion, you'll find an outlet for it in the north east!
The School's History
A group of parents formed the Cleveland Independent School Trust and acquired the buildings and grounds of the old Yarm Grammar School site. The independent school quickly established itself and its numbers grew. This early success brought rapid development and, before long, the School had outgrown its accommodation.
In September 1980 the School acquired and moved into The Friarage, which is today the focus of the Senior School site. By September 1996, the whole of the Senior School moved to The Friarage and the Preparatory School and its Early School had exclusive use of the old Grammar School site. The Senior School now has about 760 pupils, with approximately 200 of these in the Sixth Form. There are 63 full-time and 18 part-time teaching staff in the Senior School; there are a further 24 full-time and 7 part-time teachers in the Preparatory School which accommodates 320 pupils.
In recent years there has been significant investment into the development of facilities, with over £30 million invested in outstanding provision from Nursery to Sixth Form. Now established as one of the country's leading independent schools, Yarm has an enviable reputation for first class facilities, excellent results and is widely acknowledged as a very happy school community.
The School's first Headmaster Mr Neville Tate has written a book, 'A Story to be Told'. His charm, wit and spirit of adventure are evident throughout, and this illuminating insight into Yarm School makes a fascinating read. You can buy a copy from the School Office, just call 01642 786023.

Q: Updating the position of a node constantly? I am experiencing some problems with my game, I am currently using the update method to create the illusion of my Hero character being "dragged" along with a moving platform. The update method works by using a bool that switches on and off whenever my Hero makes contact with the platform and then updates the position to seemingly show that the Hero is being moved. This worked nicely, but as I realize when the framerate drops, so does the character's positioning and it breaks the illusion.
Is there any sort of way to constantly update the positioning of a node without using the update method?
didBeginContact Method
-(void)didBeginContact:(SKPhysicsContact *)contact {

if (((firstBody.categoryBitMask & fPlayerCategory) != 0) && ((secondBody.categoryBitMask & fPlatformCategory) != 0))
     {
         [_Hero removeActionForKey:@"idleAnimation"];
         [_Hero runAction:repeatWalkAnimation withKey:@"walkAnimation"];
         syncMove = YES;

     }
}

Update Method
-(void)update:(CFTimeInterval)currentTime {
if (gameStart == YES & gameOver == NO) {

if (syncMove == YES) {

    _Hero.position = CGPointMake(_Hero.position.x - .83, _Hero.position.y);
}

}
}

Any sort of help would be appreciated.

A: You can use the currentTime argument in your update function to calculate how much _Hero should have moved. This way _Hero will always move the appropriate amount based on the time since the last update.
The steps to do this are:

*

*Store your last update time

*On each update, calculate the difference between the last update time and the current time

*Calculate how far _Hero should have moved in that time

*Update _Hero's position

Something like:
CFTimeInterval lastUpdateTime = 0;
CGFloat frameRate = 1.0 / 60.0; // Normal SpriteKit frame rate
CGFloat xDistanceForNormalFrameRate = 0.83;

-(void)update:(CFTimeInterval)currentTime {
    if (lastUpdateTime == 0) lastUpdateTime = currentTime - frameRate; // Init lastUpdateTime to one frame back

    if (gameStart && !gameOver) { // Note: the original question had & here, but it looks like it was a typo
        if (syncMove) {
            CFTimeInterval timeDifference = currentTime - lastUpdateTime;
            CGFloat xDistance = xDistanceForNormalFrameRate * (timeDifference / frameRate);
            _Hero.position = CGPointMake(_Hero.position.x - xDistance, _Hero.position.y);
        }
    }

    lastUpdateTime = currentTime;
}

Note: If your frame rate is dropping below ~30FPS, you should probably focus more on why your frame rate is dropping than how to work around it.

Drought worsening health crisis in Central…
Drought worsening health crisis in Central California town
PUBLISHED: June 21, 2015 at 7:43 p.m. | UPDATED: September 1, 2017 at 1:21 a.m.
EAST PORTERVILLE, Calif. (AP) — Residents of East Porterville and experts say not having running water and breathing increasingly dusty air because of the drought is worsening health issues.
The town of 7,500 people has no central water system and families rely on shallow private wells, which have been drying out as the drought worsens. Doctors in the area say they have seen a spike in respiratory illnesses, including chronic bronchitis, allergies and asthma, the Fresno Bee reported Sunday (http://bit.ly/1BvW4gi ).
A 75-mile drive southeast of Fresno, East Porterville gained notoriety after becoming one of the first Valley communities to suffer from the drought. It remains the hardest hit, now with around 700 homes, or about 3,000 people, reporting well failures.
Data shows the number of patients visiting the emergency room at nearby Sierra View Medical Center in Porterville complaining of breathing issues has increased by more than 25 percent since 2010.
"We are seeing that these individuals are having more trouble as far as breathing is concerned and they are coming in to see us a little bit more frequently than we are used to," hospital spokeswoman Ramona Chiapa said. "We suspect that it is due to the drought."
John Capitman, executive director of the Central Valley Health Policy Institute, said the drought has already created a public health emergency in terms of the worsening air quality. But he said it will take a few years before health researchers can really demonstrate any other drought impacts on health.
This community and others nearby are already plagued by drinking water high in nitrates, a contaminant that comes from septic systems, fertilizers, dairies and decomposing vegetation. Nitrate contamination is linked to dizziness, upset stomachs, lung infections, diabetes, the potentially fatal blue-baby syndrome and cancer.
American Community Survey figures from 2013 show the town is over 75% Latino, and more than one-third of families live below the federal poverty level. One in three residents over age 16 works in agriculture, forestry, fishing, hunting and mining.
Experts say the drought is starting a domino effect that can link together numerous health-related issues: pre-existing conditions, worsening air, access to potable water, hygiene and anxiety among them.
Pastor Roman Hernandez of Iglesia Emmanuel said many immigrants in town are afraid to seek help because they lack legal status. The church receives donations of bottled water and food to hand out.
Hernandez recalled one man who confided that he would go to a nearby park at night to collect water from a duck pond because his family had no running water.
"For a long time, this man and his family were taking water from there," Hernandez said in Spanish. "He said, 'Oh no, it's all right. We boil it.' It took a long time to convince the man there was help elsewhere."

Is it possible to design and deliver 12 schools for the Education Funding Agency worth over £100m, totalling 62,000m2 and spread across seven local authorities within two years?
This challenge was met by AHR using a collaborative and strategic approach to standardised designs and the BIM process. All 12 schools have been delivered on time and on budget.
Early planning and testing of designs guided our approach towards delivering high quality, educationally‐led solutions for each school's specific educational and organisational needs.
As the design developed we were able to show the client the changes to all 12 schools, not only the two sample schools asked for.
For the secondary schools, four standardised "block typologies" were developed. The two-storey environmental and structural solution maintained standardisation across the batch while allowing flexibility to suit the individual briefs for all six schools. The blocks plug into the spine of common facilities.
The primary schools are arranged over two storeys with the "key stages" for children of different ages ordered by floor. The Early Years Unit is single-storey allowing natural daylight via rooflights and freeing up the elevations for covered play overhangs and furniture, fixtures and equipment. It also allows for flexibility during design development. Halls are located centrally and have secure community access.
Alongside the approach to standardised design was the strategic thinking around the BIM process. We amended the resources, deliverables and fee profiles to suit, ensuring resources were provided at the appropriate stages of each project.
As the design developed we were able to show the client the changes to all 12 schools, not only the two sample schools asked for. Digital prototypes allowed us to interrogate the design and brief at a more sophisticated level, enabling space and block typologies to develop at speed.
This allowed for better decision-making by the client and design team and better tracking of big data. Accurate 3D models allowed the client to engage with the project, it also enabled better cost/risk management and an analysis system to compare the original brief against the emerging designs for all 12 schools. In addition, it allowed early testing of design performance against the facilities output specification, including ventilation and daylight levels, ensuring compliance.
Time and money were saved through the regular use of clash detection processes. Coordinated federated models were all used as standard to minimise any issues on site and collaboration throughout resulted in cost and time reductions. Standardised solutions allowed knowledge to be passed from one project to another, with a smooth transition from the sample scheme to the rest of the batch. Better quality construction and time savings were realised through the manufacture and use of repeatable and modular structure, envelope and offsite modular M&E systems.

Overanalyze This: Pinkie Pie and the Unlikable Mudbriar
by The Skullivan
In the last episode, we were introduced to a very interesting character in the form of Mudbriar. Well... Technically he isn't interesting; He's dull as dishwater. But what is interesting is what he represents. You see, Mudbriar is a very unique being. He is something that nobody ever knew existed, and in fact that many people thought could not exist at all. He is... a pony that Pinkie Pie doesn't like.
Yes, that most prominent of social butterflies, friend to literally everyone and everything Pinkie Pie has finally encountered someone that she simply cannot stand. But what exactly does that mean? And how will something like this affect her character going into the future?
Let's analyze this stick in the mud after the break!
Before we look to the future, it's important to understand why Pinkie Pie reacted the way she did to Mudbriar. On its face, the whole premise seems a bit questionable, doesn't it? Pinkie freaking Pie meeting a new creature and not immediately deciding to be ultra best friends for life with them? There's at least one donkey in Ponyville who can tell you exactly how unlikely that is.
Pictured here: Successful friendship.
Pinkie Pie has never been one to dismiss another creature based on a bad first impression. Even when it was someone like Gilda, Pinkie had to spend an entire day watching her bully and torment people before she started to entertain the notion that maybe she wasn't a very nice person, and even then she still wanted to be friends. So what is it about Mudbriar that sets her off?
Say "technically" one more time and I will technically suplex you into that barrel.
To be fair, he does have quite a lot of odd habits to rub her the wrong way. His awkward, halting speech patterns, his obsession with technicalities and literality, a tendency to break into long winded explanations full of scientific jargon, a complete inability to recognize social cues... Any of this starting to sound familiar?
"He's talking about me, in case that wasn't clear."
Yes, all of the things that Pinkie can't stand about Mudbriar are all of the things that he has in common with Maud. And that is very telling. Pinkie Pie's reaction to Maud's boyfriend is exactly the same way that Pinkie's friends reacted to Maud when they first met her. Pinkie's spent her whole life around Maud, so she's used to her and knows her well enough to look past the weird stuff that puts other ponies off. When she meets Mudbriar, she sees all the same awkward silences and missed social cues that everyone else sees in Maud, and she doesn't know how to deal with them coming from somepony else.
That was the whole point of the comedy club scene in the beginning: to remind the audience that even though Pinkie (and by extension ourselves) knows Maud well enough to ignore her social awkwardness, to a stranger she comes off as kind of a quiet oddball.
I don't care what those other ponies say, "My favorite thing to listen to is clastic rock" is some S-Rank puncraft.
Pinkie has always been extremely possessive of her older sister. Because she understands Maud better than most people do, she believes that she knows everything there is to know about her, and also that she can be everything that her sister needs. Then along comes Mudbriar, who relates to Maud in a way that Pinkie Pie can't ever do for her, and that's where we see that spark of animosity.
Sticks and stones and weirdo pones.
The thing about Pinkie Pie is that she rarely, if ever, actually gets upset at other people unless they are actively trying to murder her (which does seem to happen more often than you'd think). More often than not, she's really upset at herself for not being good enough for them. She's not mad at Cheese Sandwich for stealing her party thunder, she's mad that she wasn't able to throw a good enough party for Rainbow Dash. She's not frustrated with Rutherford for not appreciating her hospitality, she's frustrated with herself for being unable to accommodate him.
And then there was the time she was so disappointed in herself for almost forgetting Sir Lintsalot's birthday that she had a nervous breakdown.
Then Mudbriar comes along and not only does that, but he does that by coming in between her and Maud, the person she cares about more than anyone else. All those insecurities Pinkie feels get amplified by her love for her sister, and wind up manifesting in an outright resentment for the pony who caused them.
So what does this mean for Pinkie's future development? How will these two opposites deal with each other from now on? Well, if I can speak from an extra-narrative standpoint I don't find it all that likely that we'll see them interact much again. Mudbriar is a supporting character for a supporting character; He's probably not going to have such a significant role to play again.
But I could see this as a step towards Pinkie Pie developing into a more mature person. In the final scene of the episode, there's an important bit where it's shown that Mudbriar still very much grates on her nerves. Over time she may come to understand him better, but for now she's just sucking it up for Maud's sake. This could be where she begins to learn to recognize and accept these kinds of negative feelings instead of just repressing them to make others happy, eventually becoming a much more emotionally healthy person.
Assuming, of course, she can keep herself from strangling him over those technicalities. No jury in Equestria would convict her.
It's at this point that I realize I'm doing that thing where I forget to stop writing again. The TL;DR version is that when the perpetual people-pleaser Pinkie Pie finally encounters a creature that even she can't bring herself to like, it winds up saying a lot more about her than it does about him, but that might not be such a bad thing.

Boeing plans $28M expansion
Lynn Brezosky, Staff Writer
June 24, 2013 Updated: June 24, 2013 8:56 p.m.
Boeing is planning a $28 million expansion of a maintenance hangar at Port San Antonio, officials confirmed Monday.
"We are going to be expanding the hangar to accommodate some planned growth there at the site, which is exciting," Boeing spokeswoman Lori Moore said. "They're going to make room for more aircraft and then they're going to add some office personnel to it."
However, she said she couldn't reveal specifics because of "an agreement with the customer."
Filings with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation show the expansion is for the Chicago-based company's Aircraft Maintenance Facility at 400 Airlift Drive. TDLR spokeswoman Susan Stanford said the project was registered with the state on Friday, and is pending a plan review.
The filing shows the design firm is Reynolds Smith & Hills Inc., a Jacksonville, Fla.-based company with an office in San Antonio.
The project involves a two-story, 36,400-square-foot office addition to the 141,630-square-foot hangar, as well as a 43,222-square-foot hangar expansion at each end.
The project's estimated start date is Monday. The work is expected to be complete by April 1, 2014.
Moore said she didn't know if the expansion would mean more jobs at Boeing's operation at the port. The aerospace giant employs about 5,300 in Texas.
"We have a skilled workforce down there," she said. "They're very versatile, so I don't know if it would increase jobs or it would just be more work for existing people there."
The San Antonio site got a boost in April when United Airlines began sending its fleet of six Boeing 787 Dreamliners there for battery modifications and other fixes. The facility already had a contract for engineering changes and refurbishment on five new Dreamliners.
Airline industry analysts said the work could be a sign San Antonio is regaining its reputation as a hub for aircraft maintenance.

A: I'm in the same case; App developped via Nappa, deploy and works on sharePoint Online (the one bundled with Office 365 account).
When I want to install it on our SP 2013 local server (via PowerShell) it exit during the "Installing" status, and in the log i got the famous: "Missing one or more of the following attributes from the root node in solution SOLUTION_NAME.wsp : assembly '', type ''."
This error is wide meaning, as it can come from differences between SP versions, variables types used, bad manifest file, WebConfiguration ...
In my case I didn't found out where it can come from yet. My app is very simple, it only load a list content, and display it in a particular manner by using pure web (HTML/JS/CSS) so I don't think it could from a weird dependency ...

Brewing & Distilling Utah
Misbehaving in Utah since 1986, brewing pioneer Greg Schirf has launched Polygamy Porter Nitro, the latest in a long line of his beer firsts for the Beehive State.
After Fisher Brewing shut down in Salt Lake in 1967, and the state didn't see a commercial operation for two decades. Then Schirf started poking at state law.
"When I showed up for my brewer's license, they didn't know if it was legal," says Schirf, a native of beer-loving Wisconsin who hitchhiked to Utah in 1974.
The first year was tough. To boost sales, Schirf decided to open a brewpub in Park City and was told it was "strictly forbidden" in 1987.
But Schirf had a trick up his sleeve. "I was too young and dumb to know any better," he says. "We literally came in under the radar and got the brewpub law changed."
"The brewpub phenomenon is a throwback to the old days," says Schirf, noting that vertical integration of brewing beer and selling it was the status quo before Prohibition. "It was really a monopoly and the federal government did a good job of separating the two."
Schirf credits Sierra Nevada, New Belgium and Widmer Brothers for kickstarting the craft market in the early 1990s. "They really allowed craft beer to be respected because they were doing such a good job," he says.
Wasatch merged with Squatters to form the Utah Brewers Cooperative in 2000. "That really worked out well for us," says Schirf of the merger. The company subsequently closed on an investment from Fireman Capital in 2012.
Along the way, the company sparked plenty of controversy with its branding: Evolution Amber Ale, Provo Girl Pilsner, and Polygamy Porter are among its nose-thumbing labels. "I call it my minority compex," jokes Schirf. "We try to have some fun with it. Now we say, 'Misbehaving in Utah for 29 years.'"
The company has the original brewpub in Park City as well as a new one in Salt Lake City's Sugar House neighborhoods and distributes to 12 states. "We package both brands," says Schirf, now the combined company's "Capo."
Of about 25 bottles and cans, Squatters Hop Rising Double IPA is Utah's top selling craft beer and Wasatch's Devastator Double Bock is another local favorite. Production hit 48,000 barrels for 2014, split nearly evenly between Wasatch and Squatters, and Schirf projects 20 percent growth for 2015.
After Utah, Texas is the next best market for the brewery. "The major metro areas are just killing it," says Schirf.
For 2015, Wasatch has launched Polygamy Porter Nitro. Noting Left Hand's "huge success with their Milk Stout," Schirf calls it a labor of love. "We've been making nitrogenated draft beer for 10 years," he says. "I'm a big fan of it so this project is somewhat self-indulgent."
Rather than using a can with a widget like Guinness, Wasatch has developed a specialized brewing process. "Getting nitrogenated beer in a bottle is really challenging."
He said his brewing team perfected the process after a false start and issues with shelf stability. The finished product delivers "that beautiful cascading effect when you pour the beer," says Schirf. "Now we're in the middle of a full-on marketing push. We're trying to get the word out."
Schirf looks back on his three-decade journey leading the way for the state's craft beer industry and laughs. "You're talking to a guy who moved from the state with the highest per-capita beer consumption to the state with the lowest," he says. "I was a philosophy major, not a business major."
Challenges: Quality control, but Wasatch puts a special emphasis on it. "We have two full-time biochemists for quality assurance," says Schirf. "For a brewery with 40,000- to 50,000-barrel production, that's pretty unique."
A second challenge is "to be smart about growing and not just jump into it," he adds. "It's not just about shipping beer, it's about supporting the distribution and the growth."
Opportunities: Nitro. Schirf anticipates a second bottled release to pair with Polygamy Porter Nitro soon, "probably a lighter one." He IDs more creative seasonal releases as another sales opportunity.
Needs: "We're pretty well set up," says Schirf, citing a $1.5 million investment in a canning line and capacity upgrade in 2013. "The biggest components of our packaging are in place. We're hoping to invest in making our beer."
In the longer term, an expansion is looming. The current brewery has a capacity of about 80,000 barrels. "After that, it gets a little sketchy," Schirf says.

It's no secret that I'm a big fan of coconut oil and I try to substitute it in whatever I can whenever I can. Most fats are pretty equal when it comes to calories - coconut oil 120, butter 101, olive oil 120, margarine 102, per tablespoon. Coconut oil is what's know as a medium-chain triglyceride fat (MCTs) and is believed to aid weight loss because it is metabolized differently than other fats. It is 90% saturated fat which has been given a bad rap, but research has confirmed that coconut oil can actually raise your good HDL cholesterol and has antioxidants similar to berries and dark chocolate.
Some still maintain that saturated fat contributes to heart disease but man has been eating saturated fat (butter, lard, coconut oil) for thousands of years and it's not until we started eating polyunsaturated vegetable oils (corn, safflower, canola) and margarine in the last century that heart disease became so prevalent. What's up with that? It is also diabetic friendly because it helps to regulate blood sugar lessening the effects of the disease. Weight loss has also be attributed to other coconut products, which contain some of the oil, like coconut flour, coconut cream, and coconut milk.
Just recently I made biscuits using coconut oil and coconut milk and they turned out wonderful. I also substituted half of the white flour with whole wheat flour. They were light, flaky, and tasty! If your oil is in a liquid state, refrigerate until solid.
Sift or whisk together all the dry ingredients. Cut chilled coconut oil into flour mixture with two knives or a pastry blender. Stir in coconut milk to form a soft dough; turn out onto floured surface. Pat into a rectangle about 1/2 " thick. Cut into 12 squares and carefully transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 - 17 minutes. Cool slightly and enjoy!
I think I've got to try this out. Your baking looks delicious.
I've been waiting for you to post this recipe Cindy!! I am going to give these a try!! I'll let you know how I get on! Not that I should be eating biscuits . . . but, oh well!!

Albert the Great Euthanized at Old Friends
November 21, 2021 Associate Editor	Leave a comment
Photo: Laura Battles.
GEORGETOWN, KY – NOV. 20, 2021 – Multiple graded stakes winner Albert the Great was euthanized November 19 at Old Friends, the Thoroughbred Retirement farm based in Georgetown, KY, where he has been pensioned since 2017.
According to attending veterinarian Dr. Bryan Waldridge, the 23-year-old stallion was euthanized due to chronic sinus infection.
Campaigned by owner Tracy Farmer and trainer Nick Zito, the son of Go for Gin had a short but very prestigious career. He earned his first graded stakes as a 3-year-old capturing the GR2 Dwyer Stakes in 2000 and, later that year, the GR1 Jockey Club Gold Cup. At Saratoga that summer he fell just a stride or two short of victory in the GR1 Travers Stakes.
At 4 he captured the Widener Handicap (G3) at Hialeah Park, the Suburban and Brooklyn Handicaps (G2) at Belmont Park, and ran second in four other GR1 contests, including the GR1 Woodward and Whitney Stakes.
Albert the Great retired from racing in 2001 following a 3rd place finish in the Breeders' Cup Classic with a 8-6-4 record from 22 starts, 15 of which were made in graded stakes. His lifetime earnings totaled $3,012,490. He entered stud in 2002 at Three Chimneys Farm before relocating to Pin Oak Lane in 2008.
He sired such GR1 winners as Moonshine Mullin, Albertus Maximus, and Nobiz Like Shobiz, who is currently retired at Old Friends.
"Albert the Great was aptly named," said Old Friends founder and President Michael Blowen. "He was the master and everyone else was just a serf. He didn't need you to be his friend, just his servant. He was certainly a unique iconoclast and he'll be missed. Our thanks to Three Chimneys, Tracy and Carol Farmer, and Nick Zito," Blowen added. "They raised a great one."

The new districts generally respect county and municipal boundaries and don't "wander seemingly arbitrarily across Pennsylvania," as the state's Supreme Court wrote. Unfortunately for Pennsylvania voters, the new districts show just as much partisan bias as the old ones.
You can demonstrate this using the precinct-level results of the 2016 presidential election: See which precincts are assigned to which districts under the new map, use those assignments to calculate the total presidential vote in each of the new districts and compare those figures with the vote totals under the old districts. That will give you a good sense of how the partisan makeup of the new districts compares to the old ones.
Brian Amos, a redistricting expert at the University of Florida, has done exactly that. Amos combined the new district maps with precinct-level returns compiled by cartographers Nathaniel Kelso and Michal Migurski.
The similarities are striking: In 2016, Donald Trump received more votes than Hillary Clinton in 12 out of Pennsylvania's 18 districts. Under the Republicans' new map, Trump would similarly outperform Clinton in exactly 12 districts.
Not only that, but the vote margins in each district would be virtually identical. The chart below plots, for each district, the vote margins in 2016 vs. the margins that would result from the Republicans' new map. Across all 18 districts, the average difference in vote margins between the old and new map would be a little over four percentage points.
From a partisan standpoint, in other words, the new map is almost exactly like the old one. Under the existing map, Democratic House candidates have routinely received roughly 50 percent of the statewide popular House vote but only five of the state's 18 House seats. The new map is unlikely to change that.
"This reminds me of what happened in Florida in 2012, where the state legislature drew maps under new constitutional anti-gerrymandering requirements," Amos said. He should know: Amos was a consulting expert for the plaintiffs in the lawsuit that ultimately overturned some of Florida's gerrymanders.
Experts consulted by the plaintiffs in the Pennsylvania case have testified that it's highly unlikely the level of partisan skew observed in the old maps — and now the new ones — is accidental. Jowei Chen of the University of Michigan created 500 computer-drawn district maps optimized for Pennsylvania's traditional redistricting criteria of compactness, contiguity and equal population. Among those maps, "the highest number of classified Republican districts was 10, and in none of the simulated plans would 13 of the congressional districts be classified as Republican" as they are under the existing maps, Chen found.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) has until Thursday to review the new Republican-drawn map. If Wolf rejects it, the Supreme Court will instruct independent redistricting expert Nathaniel Persily of Stanford University to draw a new map from scratch.

Q: Replacing a value in xml file using awk or sed I'd like to replace the value of "ThreadGroup.num_threads" which is 2000 with another value i.e. 500. My file name is "test.xml"
here is the xml file that i want to replace 2000 value with 500:
<ThreadGroup guiclass="ThreadGroupGui" testclass="ThreadGroup" testname="JWT-API Thread Group" enabled="true">
    <stringProp name="ThreadGroup.on_sample_error">continue</stringProp>
    <elementProp name="ThreadGroup.main_controller" elementType="LoopController" guiclass="LoopControlPanel" testclass="LoopController" testname="Loop Controller" enabled="true">
    <boolProp name="LoopController.continue_forever">false</boolProp>
    <stringProp name="LoopController.loops">1</stringProp> </elementProp>
    <stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">2000</stringProp>
    <stringProp name="ThreadGroup.ramp_time">1</stringProp>
    <boolProp name="ThreadGroup.scheduler">false</boolProp>
    <stringProp name="ThreadGroup.duration"></stringProp>
    <stringProp name="ThreadGroup.delay"></stringProp>
</ThreadGroup>

I have made a script that helps to replace the value but somehow i am hard-coding the values as well as hardcoded the path location. I need a way so that it recognizes the location itself just as i defined in awk command and replaces the value using parameter as defined $Ratio
#!/bin/bash
Ratio="500"
for file in Sample.jmx; do
        awk -F"[<>]" '/ThreadGroup.num_threads/{print $3}' $file > output.json
        sed -i 's:<stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">2000</stringProp>:<stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">500</stringProp>:' $file
done
Output=$((`cat < output.json`))
echo $Output
#UpScale = number_of_threads / 1000
UpScale=$((`cat < output.json` / $Ratio))
echo $UpScale

A: You can put variable between strings
's:..text...'$Ratio'...text..:'

and it will concatenate all in one string - but there can't be spaces between strings and $Ratio
sed -i 's:<stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">2000</stringProp>:<stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">'$Ratio'</stringProp>:' $file

It there is no other num_threads then you could use shorter strings
sed -i 's:num_threads">2000<:num_threads">'$Ratio'<:' $file

Using () (or \( \) on some systems) you can catch text in input string and use it in output string as $1, $2
sed -i 's:(num_threads">)2000(<):$1'$Ratio'$2:' $file

This way you can create shorter string even for longer version
sed -i 's:(<stringProp name="ThreadGroup.num_threads">)2000(</stringProp>):$1'$Ratio'$2:' $file

On Linux Mint I have to use \( \) instead of (),
sed -i 's:\(num_threads">\)2000\(<\):$1'$Ratio'$2:' $file

or I have to add option -E or --regexp-extended
sed -i -E 's:(num_threads">)2000(<):$1'$Ratio'$2:' $file

Return of the Swallow
Chapter 531.1: Xiyue
With her entire body submerged in warm water, it felt like all of her pores had opened up to breathe. The sweat and bad luck that had been ground into her body by her illness also seemed to be washed away along with the grime and the dirt.
One of the maids helped scrub her body while the other washed her hair with great care. Every single one of their actions spoke of tenderness and care; when slim fingers scratched her scalp, it felt that they thought it a great offense to even cause her to lose a single strand of hair.
Qin Yining closed her eyes for a moment to think deeply, and waited until she had gotten her bearings before she asked nonchalantly, "Where is this place?"
The two maids exchanged a look and the slimmer one answered, "We can't blame the goddess for not knowing. When you descended from the heavens with grain, you were ill. This is Xiyue, an oasis within the uninhabited region of the desert."
So she hadn't been brought out of the desert alone. It was the Minuo tribesmen who'd found an oasis and taken herhere! But why did these people say that she'd descended from the heavens with grain? And why did they call her a goddess?
Qin Yining didn't bat an eyelid at that answer, and continued asking, "Where are my people?"
"Please be at ease, Goddess. Other than that young master Lu, your other people have been appropriately settled down elsewhere outside the palace."
Outside the palace? So this was a palace? Qin Yining couldn't help but sneak surreptitious looks around her. This palace was undeniably a little... too basic.
Since they were so careful towards her, as if they feared this 'goddess', she deepened her voice and glowered with displeasure, "Then where is young master Lu?"
The maids sanswered apprehensively when they saw that Qin Yining seemed to have grown angry, "Goddess, please don't be angry. It really was because young master Lu clashed with the prince that he was locked up."
"Clashed? Why did they clash?" Her tone became even more domineering.
Flustered, the maids quickly dropped to their knees and hung their heads. "Goddess, please don't be angry! You must have heard our devout prayers since you brought grain and seed to Xiyue! When we first arrived here, generations of tribesmen and princes have prayed for the goddess in our sacred books to bring grain to save us and deliver us.
"The sacred books decreed that once the goddess arrived at Xiyue, she must be our princess consort. However, young master Lu vehemently opposed His Grace's announcement that he would be marrying you. In a fit of anger, His Grace locked the young master up. But since he is the goddess' tribesman, no one made things difficult for him."
Qin Yining listened with open-mouthed shock. The prince that these maids were speaking of… was he that uncle she'd previously seen?! No wonder he looked at her with such ardent eyes! Did he think to ask for her opinion before marrying her?
Burying her wrath and misgivings at the bottom of her heart, Qin Yining continued to ask solemnly, "So that's what happened. I'd expect that it must have been over a hundred years since your tribe first came to this oasis?"
The two maids nodded. "The goddess speaks rightly. Us Xiyue have been here for over a hundred years."
Judging from how reverent and fearful these two were toward her inexplicable status of 'goddess', her manner couldn't be excessively overbearing. Regardless, she had to act in accordance to their impression of a goddess, so didn't press on with her questions.
She could already conclude from the information they'd imparted that this was still within the uninhabited region of the desert, and that the Xiyue tribe had been at this oasis for over a hundred years. The accent and customs of these people resemble that of southern Great Zhou where it bordered Great Yan, but their accessories and totems also indicated that they were a minority ethnic group.
But from what she knew, this place had been pure desert a hundred years ago. In other words, the Xiyue were just like the Minuo; they'd entered the uninhabited region and crossed the desert of their own volition, and happened upon this oasis by sheer luck.
The Minuo had been running for their lives and only entered the uninhabited region because they had no other options.
With such terrible surroundings whereupon it was easy to enter but difficult to exit, the Xiyue couldn't very well go sightseeing with their entire tribe in tow, could they?
Thus, Qin Yining deduced that they must have been forced by circumstances to come here a hundred years ago. Taking into account the complex geology of the uninhabited region, like the Minuo, they probably couldn't find their way out. Even if one knew the general direction they should move in, it would be extremely difficult to walk out of the desert.
Besides, the fact that this oasis was able to nourish an entire tribe for a hundred years, grant them the effort to spare for constructing a palace, and were in no way miserly with their use of water indicated that this oasis should be very large and didn't lack water.
However, the two of them described her as a goddess that'd descended from the heavens with grain. This implied that the tribe lacked grain; or at least, that they'd lacked grain when they first arrived at this oasis.
Qin Yining understood clearly the tactics of a ruler. When grain was in short supply and they were afraid of a revolt, they would use any method they could think of to placate the masses. Therefore, they must've created this silly legend that said a goddess would descend from the heavens with grain in order to give the commoners a thread of hope.
However, it was more a way to pull the wool over their eyes. Even if the commoners didn't understand anything, the prince would surely understand this concept.
However, the prince had still referred to her as goddess, indicating that he was also trying to push events to follow the same direction as what was described in the sacred books, intending to fashion himself into a legitimate king.
These conclusions were what Qin Yining was temporarily able to deduce from the information at hand, and the details had to wait until she could continue investigating. Right now, the most urgent task was to find a way to meet the Minuo and rescue Lu Heng.
Once she'd decided on a course of action, she closed her eyes in repose, maintaining an air of mystery.

The 2nd China-Europe high-level political parties' forum opened on 16 May 2011 in Beijing. Iliana Ivanova MEP intervened, on behalf of the Group of the European People's Party (EPP Group), at the opening ceremony as well as in her capacity as Vice-Chairwoman of the European Parliament's Delegation for Relations with the People's Republic of China. This is the first time that the EPP Group has participated in this political forum. Mrs Ivanova delivered messages on behalf of the EPP Group and all national EPP member delegates at the opening session of the event.
"We firmly believe that discussions on a variety of subjects such as the financial and economic crisis, climate change, global governance, peaceful and democratic development of a just and harmonious society, are very important for building long-term political relations and for contributing to global peace, security and stability. This is what we stand for. And in this regard, we are ready to work together with China on issues of mutual interest, through forums and sectorial meetings organised in the EU, or in China", stated Mrs Ivanova in her opening remarks.
She was warmly welcomed and applauded by her Chinese colleagues who expressed their wishes to deepen the inter-party cooperation based on mutual respect and the strengthening of the ties between Europe and China.

Q: failed to send post data from phonegap app to RESTful lib I'm trying to send data from a phonegap mobile app to my server using $.ajax method
I use this code :
var form_data = {parm: 1, token: "2fa7e7e5e76005ffd8bfa5082da9f2f9"};
$.ajax({
    url: "http://example.com/index.php/register_devices/register/format/json",
    type: 'POST',
    data: form_data,
    //dataType:"jsonp",
    success: function(data){
            alert(data);
    },
    error: function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown){
       alert('request failed: '+ errorThrown);
    }
});
return false;

I also put this line in my config.xml file :
<access origin="*" />

And in the server side I use codeigniter framework with RESTful library  like this code :
require(APPPATH.'/libraries/REST_Controller.php');
class Register_devices extends REST_Controller  {
    public function register_post()
    {
        $parm = $this->input->post('parm');
        $token = $this->input->post('token');
        echo $token;
    }
}

when I use GET method it works successfully but the problem is when I use POST method I receive :

"internal server error"

.. Any solve ?

A: The problem was because this config option :
$config['csrf_protection'] = FALSE;
I just put it FALSE and it works prefect .

Q: Determining cell designations of values in Excel file I am automating a set of Excel sheets that performs complex calculations. To unit test, I am asserting equality between the Python output and the Excel output. However, the cell designations (ex. A5, B26) of the Excel outputs vary between sheets, but the naming is the same. For example, this section appears on every spreadsheet but in different locations
How would I approach writing code to extract this table's cell designation from an Excel sheet?

...
...

Final Output:

Year 1
100 000

Year 2
150 000

Year 3
200 000

...
...

What I've done
So far I have used pandas.read_excel() to create a data frame of the entire sheet, added a header with the column letters (i.e: A, B, C, ...), and am treating the indexes as the row numbers (i.e: 1, 2, 3, ...). The issue is that pandas.read_excel() automatically skips blank lines and the skip_blank_lines = False feature has been depreciated, so the row numbers are inaccurate (as there are blank lines in the file that also vary between spreadsheets).
The reason I need the cell designations is that I plan to modify the 'input' cell values via openpyxl to vary the Excel outputs and test a greater amount of cases.
Constraint: I am unable to modify the spreadsheets.
Please advise on any tips if you think of a better way to unit test Python output against an Excel spreadsheet's output.

Q: String reverse with []rune and strings.Builder slower than same with byte array I tried/benched three ways to reverse a string,
With Runes and in place swap. suggested multiple places like here
func ReverseWithRune(str string) string {
    runes := []rune(str)
    for i, j := len(runes)-1, 0; j < i; i, j = i-1, j+1 {
        runes[i], runes[j] = runes[j], runes[i]
    }
    return string(runes)
}

With strings.Builder
func ReverseWithBuilder(str string) string {
    var ret strings.Builder
    strLen := len(str)
    ret.Grow(strLen)
    for i := strLen - 1; i >= 0; i-- {
        ret.WriteByte(str[i])
    }
    return ret.String()
}

With a byte array fill up from end of input string
func ReverseWithByteArray(str string) string {
    strLen := len(str)
    ret := make([]byte, strLen)
    for i := strLen - 1; i >= 0; i-- {
        ret[strLen-i-1] = str[i]
    }
    return string(ret)
}

I thought ReverseWithRune and ReverseWithBuilder should be faster than ReverseWithByteArray. No-copy, lesser allocations etc. But the benchmarks are other way around for small 9 or large 99999 length strings ReverseWithByteArray with byte array is always faster.
RuneArr_9-4           9545110       111.3 ns/op       16 B/op        1 allocs/op
StringBuil_9-4       24685213       40.79 ns/op       16 B/op        1 allocs/op
ByteArr_9-4          23045233       52.35 ns/op       32 B/op        2 allocs/op

Rune_99999-4             1110     1002334 ns/op   507904 B/op        2 allocs/op
StringBuil_99999-4       6679      179333 ns/op   106496 B/op        1 allocs/op
ByteArr_99999-4         12200       97876 ns/op   212992 B/op        2 allocs/op

My question is

*

*Why is rune and builder approach not faster despite lesser iterations(lenght/2) and in place etc.

*Obvious another, can rune/builder appraoches be improved? May be I am using them wrong here.

Details
goos: linux goarch: amd64
cpu: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7200U CPU @2.50GHz
go version: go1.19.2 linux/amd64

I tried to look into profile and it shows slicerunetostring and strings.Builder.WriteBytes the main heavy operations.

Bytes reverse is also large but also because it has more ops.

A: It is not so relevant which one is faster, since two out of three are incorrect. Only ReverseWithRune is correct.
The others manipulate the individual bytes in the string. In Go, strings are UTF-8 encoded, and this is a multibyte encoding. Characters with a codepoint outside the ASCII range are encoded using more than 1 bytes, and if you reverse them byte-by-byte, you break that character as the multibyte encoding in reverse doesn't mean the same as in forward direction.
You can check it easily on the Go playground, use the string "Hello, 世界" that is provided in their standard example:
https://go.dev/play/p/oYfPsO-C_OR
Output:
ReverseWithByteArray ��疸� ,olleH
ReverseWithBuilder ��疸� ,olleH
ReverseWithRune 界世 ,olleH

As to why ReverseWithRune is slower: it involves creating a slice of rune (a 32-bit integer), then copying the string into it, while decoding the character boundaries from the UTF-8 encoding. Then you reverse it, and after that, allocate a new byte array, then encoding a slice of rune as UTF-8.

Tag: Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop
Music Monday: Stone Temple Pilots "Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop" Turns 25
martymankins | March 29, 2021
Stone Temple Pilots' Third Album, released on March 26, 1996
Most people that know me know that I am a big Stone Temple Pilots fan and have been since their debut album "Core" released in 1992 [which means that album will turn 30 next year] so when each new album came out, I embraced it regardless of how good or how mediocre it was [their self-titled 6th album comes to mind]. Most only know a few songs that were big hits from their catalog. With this third album, things were pretty rough in the lead up to recording it, mostly due to Scott Weiland's drug addiction taking precedence. But the album came out and proved that they still knew how to make some great songs together.
"Press Play" (Instrumental)
"Pop's Love Suicide"
"Tumble in the Rough"
"Big Bang Baby"
"Lady Picture Show"
"And So I Know"
"Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart"
"Art School Girl"
"Ride the Cliché"
"Daisy" (Instrumental)
"Seven Caged Tigers"
Third Time Around
Unlike the heavy grunge with "Core" and the mainstream pop/rock sound on "Purple", "Tiny Music" had all four members firing on all cylinders with a focus that gave us some great songs – which are still played on radio today. "Big Bang Baby" is in regular rotation on SiriusXM Lithium channel as well as "Lady Picture Show" with it's Beatle-esque style. But it was "Trippin' On A Hole In A Paper Heart" that ended up being the bigger hit and mostly well known to those of us that have seen the band live the last 10 years, where the song ends the set. Experienced live, it is so well done and the power chords that reverberate through the venue that I am thinking of the song right now as I type this from the last three shows I attended.
The rest of the album is evident STP sound with Dean DeLeo lead guitar being very prominent. Dean strums like Jimmy Page and George Harrison in many of the songs. Seems like this album should have been more popular, but as mentioned above, Scott's addiction issues kept the band from doing much promotion and had cancelled tour dates.
Personally, as a long time fan, this album still gets played often here. Even the instrumentals on tracks 1 and 11 are nice tunes. So if it's been a while since you have heard this album, give it a digital spin or two and see if it still sounds just as good as it did 25 years ago.

Fr. Z – R.I.P.
Posted on 10 May 2011 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf
News of my demise has been greatly exaggerated.
Instead, please stop and say a prayer for the late Fr. John Zuecher, SJ, a former chaplain at Creighton University Law School who died recently, at 86 years of age.
Creighton University's Beloved "Fr. Z" Former Law Chaplain, Dies
His smile lit up a room almost as much as the colorful plaid jackets he wore over his priestly blacks. Zuercher was an avid Chicago Bears and Red Sox fan and his favorite hobbies included watching sports and old movies.
The Rev. John "Jack" Zuercher, S.J., former Creighton University Law School Chaplain and founder of the University's Collaborative Ministry office, died Saturday, May 7, in Omaha. He was 86.
"Fr. Z," as many knew him, came to Creighton in 1976. During his 35 years at the University he taught psychology courses, founded the Collaborative Ministry Office and served as Chaplain at the School of Law for several years. He most recently worked as a promoter of Christian Life Communities for the North Central Region.
"Our beloved Father Z was a wonderful chaplain for the Law School," said Marianne Culhane, dean. "In the days before e-mail, he encouraged faculty, staff and students with lively, usually humorous messages on small slips of paper which he delivered to each person's individual mailbox several times each semester. Some were jokes – at least tangentially – about law and lawyers, and others were short prayers and meditations. I'll never forget the retreats he organized, his listening skills, his perfect choices for invocations and benedictions and his deep knowledge of psychology when asked for advice. But it's those little surprise messages that still make me smile."

[Actually, there are a couple people with keys to the command center, in case of emergency.] It's early; I haven't yet had a full cup of coffee. Nevertheless, my fleeting horror and anguish was an interesting lesson in how Christians can come to love one another (even those with whom they do not always see eye-to-eye) and experience pain at the thought of the departure of a fellow Christiam whom one has never even met.
We say alot of things to each other on Father Z's blog. Permit me to begin my own participation, today, with a non-saccharin, unsentimental, genuine "I love you" to my fellow Christians who follow this blog and comment upon it. That "I love you" goes first and foremost to the Rev. Blogger, himself. And thank you for providing us with your headlines, your insights, and your details, your humor and even your red-lettered correction, each day. I'm glad you're not dead. [LOL! Do I hear an "Amen!"?]
It happened about two years ago, a friend of mine (we'll call him 'Ray X') who isn't a very close friend and whom I only saw quite occasionally died…so I was told by a co-worker who was a mutual friend. This co-worker even produced the obituary, and so I was convinced that he had left us, and I felt terrible.
I felt even worse when he pulled up a bar stool next to me a month later and berated me for not sending his wife a Mass card.

I am an alumnus of Creighton Law School. I don't practice law, because I can't stand attorneys. : ) Father Z., S.J. was a nice guy. He actually wore a Roman collar, although usually with a tweed jacket, but at a Jesuit university in the 80s and 90s that almost counted as wearing a cassock and biretta. Mass for the law school was in a study room in the library, and looking back I realize that while Father Z, S.J. said the black, although I think he changed all of the masculine pronouns to "God" or "Lord," something that was trendy at Creighton at the time, there was very little of "doing the red."

I am also glad you're not dead.
May God bless Father John Zuecher, SJ.

Fiat Mihi,
Well, he was the founder of the "Collaborative Ministry" department.
I pray that this somewhat squishy Fr. Z is up there doing some *real* collaborative ministry with the Lord interceding for souls. Requiescat in Pace!
