The Holy Quran (Summary): Chapter 109 Sūrat al-Kāfirūn - The Unbelievers ~ Islam My Ultimate Decision .
Propagating a new religion among the desert hardened pagans of Makkah was not an easy task for Prophet of Allah, Muhammad (peace be upon him). The rich and famous of Makkah took pride in their age old traditions and polytheism, the worship of far too many idols for each season and humanly desires. Since over 300 idols placed in and around of Ka'aba, provided a means of sustenance to them as people from all over Arabia came to Makkah to pay homage to their gods and thus brought trade and money. Therefore, an end to their beliefs as manifested by emergence of Islam was taken as a great threat and they did their best to persuade prophet of Allah from propagating the concept of monotheism.
When every effort failed to convince Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the nobles among the Banu Quraysh started offering him different options, like entering into each others beliefs on yearly basis, or else offering him gifts, wine and women to stop talking of his new religion and faith. Then as a last resort they asked Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to stop talking against their gods and idols and stop polluting the minds of the non believers.
This definitely has a a telling effect on the Prophet of Allah who was finding it difficult to make a headway or breakthrough. It was under such circumstances that Sūrat al-Kāfirūn was revealed by Allah, which provided a relief to the Prophet and a new course of action to keep the non believers at bay and to their beliefs.
The theme of this Surah is very simple and easy to understand: While it out rightly rejects polytheism, it gave a clear message to the pagans of Makkah that Islam was there to stay and that Muslims would never ever revert to idol worshiping, for it was against their very belief of monotheism, and that they would not tolerate sharing of wordily gods with one absolute Allah, the creator of the universe and mankind.
This surah, like many others, also leave a clear message that Muslims believe in one Allah as was believed by Prophet Ibraheem (Abraham, peace be upon him) and all prophets and messengers who came thereafter. Thus anyone who digresses from the concept of monotheism, and shares others with Allah, is not whom we follow or support. This clearly emphasizes that Islam is free from idol worshiping and concept of God sharing or the concept of Trinity. And those who have beliefs and faith tangent to the faith and belief of Muslims and this can be summed up in one sentence: "To you your religion and to me mine."
The Prophet of Allah liked this surah so much which strengthened his faith that by Abdullah ibn Umar. son of second caliph Umer bin Khatab and a prominent authority on hadiths, has quoted that on many an occasion he heard Muhammad recite Sūrat al-Kāfirūn and Sūra al-Iklas in the two Rakats before the Pre-Dawn (Fajr) obligatory Prayer and in the two rakats after the Sunset (Maghrib) obligatory Prayer. He would also recommended reciting all four surahs starting with "Qul" before going to bed and before getting up from the bed in the morning.

Q: problems with animation when deleting the last row of a TableView in ios7 I'm having some issues when deleting the last row of my (only) section in my tableView. Any other row works fine, but if I delete the row at the bottom of my tableView at any time (not just when its the last one left) the animation is very strange and laggy. It just doesn't look right. I've also noticed that changing the animation type doesn't do anything. The animation is always when the row slides up to the top and disappears. Changing it to UITableViewRowAnimationFade or another doesn't do anything.
Here is my code
//For the edit barButtonItem in my storyboard
- (IBAction)editButtonPressed:(id)sender {
    //enter editing mode
    if ([self.editButton.title isEqualToString:@"Edit"]) {
        [self setEditing:YES animated:YES];
        self.editButton.title = @"Done";
    } else {
        [self setEditing:NO animated:YES];
        self.editButton.title = @"Edit";
    }
}

//Editing the tableView. The user can only delete rows, not add any
- (UITableViewCellEditingStyle)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    return UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete;
}

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    // If row is deleted, remove it from the list.
    if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
        //Handle the data source and backend first, then the tableView row
        PFRelation *hasFavorites = [self.currentUser relationforKey:@"hasFavorites"];
        [hasFavorites removeObject:[self.favorites objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];

        [self.favorites removeObjectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

        //It is set to fade here, but it only ever does the top animation
        [self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];

        //save to the backend
        [self.currentUser saveInBackgroundWithBlock:^(BOOL succeeded, NSError *error) {
            if (!error) {

            } else {
                NSLog(@"%@ %@", error, error.userInfo);
            }
        }];
    }
}

I've looked at every answer I can find with no luck. I return 1 in my numberOfSections in tableview because I only ever want one section, and I should be able to have 0 rows in a section, so I don't think that's the problem.

A: Here is a solution I found to work well that builds upon jaydee3's answer:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
     if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
          // hide cell, because animations are broken on ios7
          double iosVersion = [[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue];

          if (iosVersion >= 7.0 && iosVersion <= 8.0) {
              // Animating the cell's alpha change gives it a smooth transition
              // Durations > .17 show the glitch on iPad, phone looks nice up to 0.3
              [UIView animateWithDuration:0.17 animations:^(void) {
                  [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath].alpha = 0.0;
              }];
          }
          NSArray *deleteIndexPaths = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:indexPath, nil];

          // UITableViewRowAnimationFade looks nice with the animation imho
          [tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:deleteIndexPaths withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
     }
}

A: I had the same bug. I just changed the animation type on UITableViewRowAnimationMiddle, and it fixed it all.

A: Its a bug of ios7.. the tablerow animations are broken!
My fix was to fadeOut the cell right before the tableViewRowAnimation..
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    // hide cell, because animations are broken on ios7
    double iosVersion = [[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue];
    if (iosVersion >= 7.0 && iosVersion <= 8.0) {
        [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath].alpha = 0.0;
    }

    [tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:@[indexPath]
                     withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationMiddle];
}

A: My solution to this painful issue :)
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.25f
                     animations:^{

                         UIScrollView *internalScrollView = (UIScrollView*)cell.contentView.superview;
                         if([internalScrollView isKindOfClass:[UIScrollView class]]){

                             [internalScrollView setContentOffset:CGPointZero animated:YES];
                         }

                         cell.center = CGPointMake(cell.center.x - cell.bounds.size.width, cell.center.y);

                     } completion:^(BOOL finished) {

                         [self.rowModels removeObjectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

                         [tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:@[indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationLeft];
                     }];
}

I love hushpuppies but there is one thing I don't understand about them. How did they become associated with barbecue?
We made this batch to go with some BBQ chicken and smoked brisket.
I totally understand their presence at fish fries, it seems only natural since you already have the hot oil rolling. But that isn't the case with BBQ. I searched around and couldn't find any specific rationale. Heck, I couldn't even primary documentation of the origin of the hushpuppy other than several anecdotes that appeared over and over in countless articles.
Run away slaves invented them to keep the dogs quiet as they slipped away.
Hunters/trappers used them to keep the dogs quiet while cooking their bounty.
So I can't tell you WHY hushpuppies are often found on BBQ menus other than to guess that hushpuppies are a traditional Southern food and so is BBQ. But who cares? I love hushpuppies!
Alexis and I cooked about 9 different recipes this past weekend and this is the one we liked the best. It is lighter and fluffier than the dense all corn meal versions. I also like my corn bread and hushpuppies on the sweet side, hence the sugar.
Mix together the dry ingredients (first six) in a large bowl. Stir in the egg and buttermilk just until well blended. Stir in the veggies. Your mix should be enough that if you scoop out a spoonful and turn the spoon sideways, it will hold onto the spoon for a second before falling off. If not, add more flour in small amounts. Let sit for 30 minutes at room temperature before starting to cook.
Preheat a deep fryer or deep pan filled with 2-3 inches of oil to 375f. Make sure the temp is in that range before cooking or you'll get oily, soggy-puppies instead of hush puppies.
Lightly oil a tablespoon or ice cream scoop. Scoop a ball and drop the batter into the hot oil. Use another spoon to help get it off if sticking. Cook in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown on all sides.
Use a wire mesh spider or slotted spoon to remove to a raised rack. Season with salt, keep warm in a 200f oven and repeat.
Excuse the bad lighting. I HATE the smell of fried foods so we use the deep fryer in the garage on a work bench. That way the whole house doesn't smell like oil for the next 24 hours.
Gratuitous brisket shot. It looked good but I wasn't thrilled with it. It was a little peppery and texture wasn't as tender as I like. I've had 3 REALLY good briskets in a row, this one broke that chain.
As a general rule, temp should be 350 to 375f.
Monitor your oil temps while cooking. If it gets too cool, you'll have oily food. If it gets too hot, your exterior will be done but the interior still raw or doughy.
Add food in small batches to avoid your temperature dropping.
To tell if oil is read, drop in a cube of bread. It should turn golden in 1 minute.
Use metal or heat proof tools and be careful as they can heat up during cooking.
Watch your oil level limits in fryers and never fill a pan more than 1/2 full. If you overflow the oil when adding food, you could start a fire.
You can tell when many fried foods are done by the golden color.
You can also tell when many fried foods are done because they will float when done.
Season the fried foods immediately after cooking (between batches, don't wait until they are all done).
Use a raised rack and don't stack the cooking items while hot, the crust will get soggy.

Exit Pursued by Owlbear Is an Admirable Collection of D&D Adventures Based on Shakespeare's plays
Jonathan Wilder
Tabletop RPGs are an incredibly suitable medium for adaptations. The freedom afforded to the GM and players through roleplaying allows for engaging with a favorite property in a brand new context, with a new flavor. Exit Pursued by Owlbear carefully plots out five adventures that show reverence to some of Shakespeare's most notable plays, while still finding ways to twist those stories into ones that fit the D&D system.
Product Manager E.R.F. Jordan, whose other work includes the Mythic Encounters series, assembled a talented group of writers to give fresh perspectives on these tried and true plays. After going over the review copy of this collection of adventures, I was able to run the Hamlet adventure called The Rose of the Fair State for a group of players that included a Shakespeare enthusiast. My thoughts are elaborated on completely for that adventure, but there will be thoughts on the other adventures below. If you are more interested in broad thoughts, then feel free to skip ahead to The Verdict? section.
A Rose and a Thorn
As mentioned in the introduction to this article, the adventures contained in Exit Pursued by Owlbear have fun new approaches to the Bard's work and The Rose of the Fair State by Ashton Duncan is no different. However, this unique spin on Hamlet does come with its faults.
The story presents Ophelia as the main NPC and quest giver, providing some fascinating advice for expanding on the character presented in the play. However, the adventure doesn't give many clear opportunities to engage with Ophelia's motivations beyond the initial meeting with the adventurers. The strength of Ophelia as a character may be slightly roleplay-dependent, as with many prominent NPCs, but there still could have been more opportunities to actively include her in the action.
The story of this adventure operates on the periphery of the base Hamlet story, allowing for new plot points and even an opportunity to subvert the very tragedies that Hamlet is built on. However, this removal from the story of Hamlet was particularly stark in the Act 1 of this adventure, which my players felt subtracted from the rest of the story. The enjoyable scheming that this adventure provides grounds for truly thrives in Act 2, which could have easily been expanded forward into Act 1.
Magic and supernatural occurrences are not just a staple of D&D, but also very present in Shakespeare's stories, including Hamlet. A Rose of the Fair State feels lacking in that quality, with the only distinct D&D elements integrated being changing some of the characters of the story to D&D ancestries. It felt like a missed opportunity to not include the ghost of Hamlet Senior in an adventure that could have played with that supernatural element.
The adventure struggles to stick the landing in its final act due to a lack of clear hook between the conclusion of Act 2 and the start of Act 3. The structure of the adventure just assumes that the adventurers will go along with what is requested of them in Act 3, without giving much context to the DM or players as to why they're required to undertake the presented task. This ended up causing a refusal to take on this new request from the characters and did not provide them with the same level of engagement in the finale of the adventure.
Aside from the clear structural issues, this adventure does have a solid concept. As a quick set of missions, it was effective and fun to run. While it may not work perfectly on its own, it does stand as a strong template for any DM who would like to integrate Shakespeare's stories into their own campaign or run a series of (generally) light adventures.
Shrewd Analysis
The next adventure is called A Shrew's Vengeance, which takes a critical look at The Taming of the Shrew. This adventure's author, Jessica Marcrum, is able to provide a nuanced take on the misogyny and abuse present within the source material. In terms of tone, this adventure does feel a bit clunky. On the one hand, it has a delicate take on gaslighting, neglect, and abuse, interfacing with how such things have affected Katherine. On the other hand, the vengeance plot's use of magical trickery somewhat trivializes the important subject matter. Later on, the adventure takes a more serious turn, following the introduction of an original character named Count Christopher Sly. Count Sly is a fun inclusion in a vacuum but feels a bit out of place as a minor character. Perhaps if the focus of the story had been slightly shifted, this adventure could have functioned a bit better.
Oh, Puck!
This collection also includes If We Shadows Have Offended by R. Morgan Slade, which very loosely pulls from A Midsummer Night's Dream. The adventure takes the character Puck as well as some elements of the fairy's trickery to put together an original adventure. The stakes are low, but there is still some delightful design. Puck organizes a game of Forest and Faeries that creates a game within a game structure for this adventure. Forest and Faeries calls for trial-and-error discovery of the rules of the game, similar to games like Mao.
Depending on the group of players, this could be very entertaining or very frustrating. The gameplay isn't entirely intuitive, especially with a "soliloquy" mechanic that isn't really hinted at in any formal manner. There are also some layout issues, including a missing section of Puck's dialogue in the conclusion (However, as I will note later on, the layout and presentation overall are well-done). In terms of light fun, this adventure is worth trying out, but is, again, not ideal for every group.
If You Give a DM a Cookie
Much Ado About Cookies by Noah Grand takes on a Shakespeare play that I am admittedly not well-versed in, Much Ado About Nothing. This adventure has some of the best integration of D&D elements into it, yet it is also slightly difficult to track the plot when lacking familiarity with the play. The plot is outlined in the introductory sections of the adventure, which includes useful summaries in the Adventure Overview section (it should be noted that this is the only adventure that includes such summaries).
However, the adventure could have done a better job presenting what information the faerie dragon Avon is privy to as a guideline for the DM. As the title suggests, this adventure includes a cookie subplot. I found this subplot and related elements to be a little too silly, even when compared to the lightheartedness of the rest of the story. Regardless, this adventure does provide many fun roleplaying opportunities, while still delivering strong exploration and combat aspects. Similar to most of the adventures contained within this collection, it will best serve your group if you make the style of this adventure clear before running it.
Bubble to the Surface
The last adventure presented in this collection is Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble by Tessa Simpson, which is adapted from Macbeth. This particular adventure is solid all-around, but has one glaring issue: if your players are familiar with Macbeth, then much of the suspense of this adventure's mystery is lost. Of course, most groups could likely exclude their external knowledge from their roleplaying, but I find that mysteries are best in D&D when characters and players are equally ignorant. This adventure is basically at the other end of the spectrum from The Rose of the Fair State, where both adventures could have found more of a happy middle ground between being adaptations and reimaginings.
Beyond that issue, Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble does an excellent job throwing the adventurers into the action. The PCs could probably have slightly more agency in their uncovering of the mystery of the story. The story does, however, provide for less binary developments through their interactions with some of the NPCs, allowing for an engaging story as a whole. This adventure also includes an original Warlock subclass for the Graymalkin patron. This subclass covers similar territory as the Fathomless subclass from Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, but has some unique flavor and smart design choice to justify its inclusion.
Exit Pursued by Owlbear is an anthology that could have easily been a bland collection of retellings. Instead, it includes commendable efforts to modernize these classic stories (such as Much Ado About Cookies giving the opportunities to alter the genders of the central lovers), and apply them to the D&D system.
Although I was impressed by the original takes written in this anthology, they were not without issues. The structure of some of the adventures could have used some adjustment. Additionally, the tones of these adventures aren't perfectly balanced.
Still, there are a lot of excellent design choices included within these 38 pages, such as a rollable table of Shakespeare insults and intelligent designs for investigating and exploring. The layout is one of this adventure anthology's strongest elements, making any of the adventures easy to understand as a DM. E.R.F. Jordan's art style also adds another layer of charm. I would recommend giving this adventure anthology a shot if you're a fan of Shakespeare or desire more whimsical adventure ideas.

Home Business and Labor Six Stops From the People's Guide to Greater Boston
Six Stops From the People's Guide to Greater Boston
Not your everyday guide to the city
One of our favorite books is the People's Guide to Greater Boston, a tour guide that goes beyond the usual listing of tourist attractions.
The authors — Joseph Nevins, Suren Moodliar and Eleni Macrakis — take readers to sites of "oppression, resistance, organization or transformation." Stops include the homes of wealthy opium smugglers, slaveowners, mill owners and imperialists.
People's Guide
Published by University of California Press People's Guides series, it also presents themed tours, such as a One Percent Tour of Greater Boston, a Malcolm and Martin Tour and a Sacco and Vanzetti Tour.
The Elias Hasket Derby House.
The One Percent Tour, for example, features the home of the Immigration Restriction League in Boston, the home of 18th-century millionaire Elias Hasket Derby in Salem and Elmwood, where British lieutenant governor Thomas Oliver lived in Cambridge.
To give you an idea of the places to which the book takes the reader, we bring you six stops from the People's Guide to Greater Boston.
1. Noah Worcester House, Brighton
Marker for Noah Worcester house between these triple-deckers. image courtesy @ 2021 Google
The U.S. Postal Department erected a small monument between 437 and 439 Washington St. in the Brighton neighborhood of Boston. It looks like a headstone, but it marks the home of Noah Worcester, Brighton's first postmaster.
Worcester was more than a postmaster, however. He worked as a writer, a minister and a pioneer in the American peace movement.
Born in Hollis, N.H., in 1758, he marched to Boston with his father's militia company at 16. He narrowly escaped imprisonment during the Battle of Bunker Hill. He later fought in the Battle of Bennington. The carnage he saw on the battlefield helped persuade him to give peace a chance.
Worcester married, had children and entered the Unitarian ministry in New Hampshire. He published arguments defending the Unitarian creed, which brought him to the attention of prominent clergymen William Ellery Channing and John Lowell. They invited him to come to Boston to edit a new publication, The Christian Disciple. He accepted, and then he started the Massachusetts Peace Society.
In 1814, he wrote a treatise, A Solemn Review of the Custom of War, considered a classic of antiwar writing. He also received an appointment as Brighton's postmaster, but his daughter Sally apparently did all the work.
Channing, in a tribute to him, wrote,
He was struck, as no other man within my acquaintance has been, with the monstrous incongruity between the spirit of Christianity and the spirit of Christian communities; between Christ's teaching of peace, mercy, forgiveness, and the wars which divide and desolate the church and the world.
437-439 Washington St., Brighton
2. Parmenter Street Chapel, North End, Boston
The Parmenter Street Chapel used to be here. Image courtesy @ 2021 Google.
The Parmenter Street Chapel used to be across from the North End branch of the Boston Public Library. In its courtyard was a sand garden. Not just any sand garden (we'd call it a sand box) but the sand garden that launched a thousand playgrounds across the country.
It began with a doctor who saw children playing in sand gardens in Berlin's public parks. She brought the idea back in 1885 to the Massachusetts Emergency and Hygiene Association, a reformist group of upper-class women. Poor immigrants had flooded into Boston, and the ladies didn't think the children had enough open space for play. They believed structured, supervised play in and around sand gardens would teach working-class, immigrant children morality and manners. It would also improve health and hygiene and turn the children into good U.S. citizens.
Neighborhood mothers supervised the children at first, but then MEHA hired "matrons" to take over. Within five years they supervised 21 sand gardens in Boston, augmenting the sandbox play by leading singing and dancing. Ten years after the first pile of sand was dumped on Parmenter Street, 39 cities had at least one playground.
The Parmenter Street Chapel is gone, replaced by a large brick building that houses a theater and apartments.

3. United Fruit Co. Headquarters, Boston
United Fruit's staff in Jamaica at a time when the company was promoting tourism.
You know it as Chiquita Brands International, now in North Carolina, but it started out on Long Wharf as the Boston Fruit Company in 1870. In 1899, the company merged with its rival, the Tropical Trading and Transport Company. They named themselves the United Fruit Company. From about 1900 to 1903, the multinational also known as 'the Octopus' had its headquarters at 60 State St. A plaque marks the site, now a skyscraper.
Within a decade of the merger, United Fruit grew into a banana empire, the largest agricultural enterprise in the world. At its height in the mid-1950s it had 100,000 employees, a fleet of merchant ships and 1,500 miles of railroad in Latin America. It also had few scruples.
60 State St., former home of United Fruit, according to the People's Guide.
In 1954, United Fruit worked with the Central Intelligence Agency to overthrow the democratically elected government of Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala. Arbenz had had the temerity to redistribute land to the people of Guatemala. United Fruit owned 70 percent of Guatemala's private land in 1942, according to the People's Guide. Arbenz' overthrow led to three decades of military dictatorship and war in which U.S.-backed forces killed 200,000 Guatemalans.
Another legacy of the United Fruit Company: the many Afro-Caribbean immigrants who came to Boston on United Fruit ships.
The company then moved to 131 State Street in 1903, then to 1 Federal Street and finally to 80 Federal Street.

4. Walter E. Fernald State School, Waltham
The Fernald School, now closed.
Samuel Gridley Howe, Julia Ward's husband, founded the school in Boston in 1848 to care for people with developmental disabilities. Political correctness hadn't entered the lexicon yet, so Howe called it the Experimental School for Teaching and Training Idiotic Children.
The school moved to Waltham in 1887 under the leadership of Walter E. Fernald, a proponent of eugenics. Later it took his name. The school began to conduct scientific experiments, and to take children who had no developmental disabilities. They just came from poor families.
In 1946, the school started The Science Club, run by scientists from MIT. They enticed boys to join the club with promises of trips to the beach, Red Sox games and gifts. The boys ate a special diet that included cereal with milk. They didn't know, nor did their parents, that the scientists had laced their food with radioactive tracers.
Quaker Oats Co. sponsored the experiment on the boys – without their parents' knowledge or permission. The National Institutes of Health and the Atomic Energy Commission also paid for the project.
In 1993, former Fernald students sued Quaker Oats and MIT. They settled out of court for $1.85 million in 1998. The Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments reported the studies were morally troubling though the doses involved were low and the children probably weren't harmed. It also questioned the fairness of selecting institutionalized children.
The Fernald School closed in 2014.

5. Wamesit, Lowell
The former site of Wamesit, according to the People's Guide
Middlesex Community College sits at the place where the Merrimack and Concord rivers meet. The land, once called Wamesit, belonged to a village of praying Indians from the Pennacook tribe. The Pennacook came to Wamesit to gather and to trade before English missionaries converted them to Christianity in the 1640s.
Passaconaway, the Pennacook leader, may have agreed to let missionaries establish the praying village as a way to curtail land grabs by the English. It didn't work, of course. During King Philip's War, neighbors murdered several of the Indians despite their peaceful and friendly attitudes toward the English. Wamesit disappeared after the war, its people either killed, captured or fled.

A marker on Maypole Hill memorializes Thomas Morton, an English colonist who infuriated the Puritans who lived nearby at Plimoth Plantation. Morton, a lawyer, established a trading post and settlement he called Merrymount and invited his friends, including Native Americans, to party there. Morton had no problem with same sex relationships, which also angered the Puritans.
On May 1, 1627, Morton and his pals put up an 80-foot maypole, which the Puritans viewed as pagan. When he did it again a year later, they marched over, chopped it down and sent Morton back to England.
He returned, and they arrested him again, seized his property and deported him a second time to England.
Morton returned again 10 years later. The Puritans imprisoned him again, and he died in 1647.
A marker indicates where Morton's Maypole once stood, and the seal of the City of Quincy marks the site of his trading post.

The Story of Love Story: How Erich Segal Won Fame and Lost a Career


Guido loves Linux not only because it is interesting to understand how operating systems work but also because of the people involved in its design.
A lot of people really dislike the pointing devices that come with laptops. They are good enough if you want to move the pointer between two windows, but you cannot do any drawings or work on images with The Gimp.
The Super Mini Optical Mouse (www.atek.com) is a real mouse and it is so small that you can use it in the tiny flat space around the keyboard of the laptop.
The world loves cool devices and this mini mouse is certainly one of them.
It is a solution to an old problem: most people dislike the built-in pointing devices in laptops, which are usually touch pads or those little rubber tip pointers.
The Super Mini Optical Mouse is a real mouse and it allows you to position the pointer very quickly and accurately. The case of this mouse is made of a dark, translucent polycarbonate. You can see its strong red LED shining through that gives a futuristic red glow effect. The mouse is about 6.5 cm long and 3 cm wide and comes with a nice little travel bag. The cord is very thin and flexible but reinforced with a Kevlar string.
The Super Mini Optical Mouse is available with a ps/2 connector or a USB connector. Although I have only used the USB version I am quite sure that the ps/2 version will work well under Linux.
A general problem of the ps/2 interface specification is that it does not say anything about the power consumption of devices. Optical mice do need more power than mechanical ones because they have a strong light, a small camera chip and more complex electronics. There might be chipsets out there that will not provide enough current to allow stable operation on the ps/2 connector. With USB connectors you will not have to worry about such hardware incompatibilities.
The Super Mini Optical Mouse is a 2 button mouse. To use it under Linux you will need the Emulate3Buttons option in the X11 configuration. Since the mouse is very small it is no problem to press the 2 buttons at the same time to emulate the middle mouse button. However, you need to press a bit harder when pressing both buttons and it takes some time to get used to it.
A mouse with a ps/2 connector is represented under Linux as /dev/psaux and the protocol is "PS/2". The kernel configuration option is CONFIG_PSMOUSE. All pre-compiled kernels from any of the major distributions have this option compiled in by default. You do not need to worry about it.
The USB subsystem in Linux is fairly new. Most distributions already had basic USB mouse support before the 2.4 kernel release but your ditrubution's kernel should not be more than one year old to be sure. Redhat 7.0, 7.1 Mandrake 8.0 etc... will all work. The kernel config options are CONFIG_USB_OHCI or CONFIG_USB_UHCI and CONFIG_INPUT, CONFIG_USB_HID, CONFIG_USB_MOUSE. Again, this is only for those who like to create their own kernels. The standard distributions have this included.
Only the USB mouse requires that kernel modules are loaded (if compiled as modules). There is no kernel module for a ps/2 mouse.
You can automatically load these at startup when you add these lines to the start section of /etc/init.d/usb (Redhat + Mandrake, Suse has it under /sbin/init.d).
Now our optical mouse is basically working. We just need to configure X11 to use this mouse or the gpm console mouse if you want to have mouse support outside the graphical environment. The Super Mini Optical Mouse always uses the PS/2 protocol even if you have one with USB hardware. The only difference from the configuration point of view is the device file, either /dev/input/mice or /dev/psaux. Everything else is identical.
Under X11 you need to edit the file XF86Config-4 (xfree86 version 4) or XF86Config (xfree86 version 3) in /etc/X11. If you have both files there then just check which one was used last by running "ls -ultr". This will show you the files and the times when they were last read by a program.
The ServerLayout section is normally at the end of the file.
However, this is only needed if the internal mouse is not a USB mouse. The /dev/input/mice device is already a "collection device" and receives events from all connected USB mice.
For this just add a section like the one below and leave the existing pointer section as it is. Again, this is only necessary if internal and external mouse are not both USB mice.
That's it. Enjoy your new Super Mini Optical Mouse.
The configuration of this new mouse might look complex but in fact it is just a matter of copying the above instructions. If the internal mouse is already a USB mouse then you just plug in the external USB mouse and there is nothing else to do.
The Atek Super Mini Optical Mouse is a really good and accurate mouse. At the beginning it is a bit strange to have such a small mouse but you get used to it (if not addicted :-) very quickly. Drawing fine and accurate shapes in The Gimp is no problem. It's great for working in places where you lack any elbow room but it works well on a big table, too ;-).
The price is about US $50. You will probably have to add custom fees according to the rules of your own country if you order from outside the US.

The Crisis Facing White Working-Class Men
Mar 1, 2020 | 2020 Spring |
Ronald F. Levant and Shana Pryor
Ronald Levant and Shana Pryor have synthesized decades of research on men and masculinities in their new book, The Tough Standard: The Hard Truths About Masculinity and Violence. Levant is one of the fathers of the psychology of men and masculinities discipline who for more than four decades has addressed the full range of the male lived experience, from examining men's sexual and domestic violence and addressing manhood in the #MeToo era to considering men's health (including depression and trauma). Pryor is a doctoral student noted for her research on men and masculinities. The Tough Standard explores the strain facing both men of color and white working-class men. Acknowledging both the joys and challenges of fatherhood and boys on the journey to manhood, the book aims to provide a context to examine the patriarchal yoke stifling males (as it continues to oppress women and girls). Drawing on foundational research that marked the early days of the study of men and masculinities (Levant coedited A New Psychology of Men 25 years ago)—and integrating insights from both academic and activist efforts of more recent times—The Tough Standard, excerpted below, may come to be seen as an essential guide for men navigating their way through the treacherous waters of traditional masculinity en route to a new expression of manhood.
The present masculinity crisis concerns not only sexual and physical violence but also the economic stagnation of white working-class men resulting from the confluence of large-scale economic, political, and social changes. These changes include the Great Recession a dozen years ago (dubbed at one time the "Mancession" because of its disproportionate effect on men), technological and productivity advances, globalization of the economy and the rise of China and India, weakening of labor unions and the resulting loss of high-paying union jobs, and growing income disparity.
Earlier stages of these changes were described by Hanna Rosin in her provocatively titled 2012 book, The End of Man and the Rise of Women, and even earlier by Susan Faludi in her 1999 book Stiffed: The Betrayal of the American Man. Blue-collar jobs now take more skill than they used to. In addition, the problem is not just due to changes in the labor market; it is also due to the poorer performance of boys in school compared to girls.
Economists David Autor, David Dorn, and Gordon Hanson argued in a 2018 paper, "When Work Disappears: Manufacturing Decline and the Falling Marriage Market Value of Young Men," that adverse trade shocks, like a surge of imports from China, "differentially reduce employment and earnings of young adult males" and "heighten male idleness and premature mortality." These changes have resulted in unemployment or underemployment of white working-class men. In an article in The Economist in 2015, "The Weaker Sex," the magazine reported, "In America pay for men with only a high-school certificate fell by 21 percent in real terms between 1979 and 2013; for women with similar qualifications it rose by three percent. Around a fifth of working-age American men with only a high-school diploma have no job." This has resulted in huge sense of grievance, which plays a prominent role in our country's current political turbulence. Claire McCaskill, the former Democratic senator from Missouri who was defeated in her 2018 reelection campaign, was interviewed on the New York Times podcast "The Daily." She had an interesting insight into why so many white working-class and rural people have abandoned the Democratic Party. According to McCaskill, they see the Democrats helping women, gay men and lesbians, African Americans, and immigrants from Mexico and Central America and ask, "What about me?"
This sense of grievance may also be related to the increases in opioid addiction, overdoses, and suicide. Although a 2018 study in Florida argued that the supply of these drugs is a more significant cause than despair itself, just on the face of it, one would think that despair is probably a factor, although evidence supporting this has yet to emerge. On this point, a recent study linked chronic opioid use with a preference for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election. Trump's campaign most assuredly fanned the flames of working-class resentment. James Goodwin, Yong Fang Kuo, David Brown, David Juurlink, and Mukaila Raji concluded as much in their 2018 article, "More than a Rural Revolt: Landscapes of Despair and the 2016 Presidential Election."
The Role of Masculinity
Our research has shown that working-class men have endorsed traditional masculinity ideology more strongly than men in higher social classes. Adherence to traditional masculinity exacerbates their difficult situations in two major ways. The first is the role it plays in their unwillingness to consider jobs in fast-growing service fields that are thought of as "feminine"— so-called pink-collar jobs, such as in health care, child care, elder care, education, bookkeeping, sales, and food preparation—endeavors some of which are performed as the unpaid work of housewives. In The End of Men, Hanna Rosin noted that of the 30 occupations expected to grow fastest in America in the coming years, women dominate 20: "The list of working-class jobs predicted to grow is heavy on nurturing professions, in which women, ironically, seem to benefit from old stereotypes."
These old stereotypes are deeply ingrained in the minds of the men they marginalize; they do not see jobs centered on serving or caring as something for them. This might put men of low socioeconomic status at a disadvantage by limiting their employment options. Twenty years ago, researcher Ben Lupton noted that men who do decide to enter into the femaledominated workplace experience threats to their masculinity in three ways: an inability to "regenerate" their masculinity in a homosocial place of employment; the fear of feminization; and fear of being called gay.
Benjamin W. Domingue and colleagues used data from a National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health, which enrolled a cohort of nationally representative school students aged 11–19 years from across the US and followed them up for 14 years. Among their conclusions:
More masculine male respondents were downwardly mobile.
They were enrolled in school for fewer years and were more likely to have lower-status jobs than their less masculine samesex school peers.
They were also more likely to have jobs in occupational categories with larger proportions of males than their same-sex school peers.
Gendered behavior was not predictive of future educational and occupational attainment for female respondents.
In a 2009 article in Gender Work and Organization, researcher Darren Nixon interviewed 35 unemployed low-skilled men in the United Kingdom on their attitudes toward entry-level service work. Manual labor and interacting with other men in an all-male environment where they could swear, shout, and engage in masculine horseplay were sources of pride for many working-class men. Further, Nixon found that entry-level service work that required skills and attitudes antithetical to working-class men's adherence to masculinity—specifically, the need for men to act more docilely and courteously to customers and their female co-workers (which they were unwilling to do)—led them to reject many forms of lowskilled service work as a future source of employment. Here are a couple of these men's statements. "I've got no patience with people basically. I can't put a smiley face on, that's not my sort of thing." (Colin, aged 24, unskilled manual worker)
"Sales assistant, no, rule that out completely. . . . I suppose I'd be frightened by it, never done anything like that before . . . services, it's not my cup of tea really. . . . I think I wouldn't be good at it. Wouldn't have confidence in it." (Jim, aged 45, former sewing machine mechanic)
We need to help working-class men understand and accept that traditional well-paying factory jobs are not coming back and that they can be nurses or sales clerks, and still be men. The second way that masculinity exacerbates these men's difficulties is the role it plays in their unwillingness to play a greater role in family chores, including child care and housework, which might enable their employed wives to earn more, again because child care and housework are thought of as feminine activities. According to a March 2015 article in The Economist headlined "The Weaker Sex," "American men without jobs spend only half as much time on housework and caring for others as do women in the same situation, and much more time watching television." Interestingly, racial minority men are more likely than white men to occupy female-dominated jobs at all levels of education—except highly educated Asian/Pacific Islander men—and these patterns are more pronounced at lower levels of education, according to a 2016 article by Jill Yavorsky, Philip Cohen, and Yue Qian in Sociological Quarterly.
A ray of hope for white working-class men comes from a study done in the United Kingdom. In a 2012 article for the British Sociological Association, "Boys Will Be Boys….Won't They," Steven Roberts interviewed 24 young men employed in the retail sector, finding (surprisingly) that young white working-class men were able to resist traditional masculinity ideology. Participants demonstrated a more positive attitude toward the "emotional labor" required in the service sector than has been previously documented, while also rejecting notions of traditional gendered domestic responsibilities as potential partners and parents. Roberts concluded: "Congruent with other emerging research in this area, the reference point for an 'acceptable' masculine identity appears to have shifted, with some young working-class men's lives, at least, illustrating an attenuated or softened version of masculinity."
In sum, working-class men's allegiance to traditional masculine ideals is holding them back at least as much, if not more, than the large-scale economic changes that disrupted their lives in the first place.

Azerbaijan Must Be Prepared for Armenians to Carry Out a Partisan War Against It, Ukrainian Security Analyst Says
Staunton, December 31 – Armenia is not in a position to take revenge on Azerbaijan with a direct military attack, but because it is supported by Russia and because the political transition in Yerevan is taking place under slogans about revenge, Baku must be prepared to counter a partisan war against it by "Armenian illegal armed formations," Aleksandr Kovalenko says.
In an interview with Baku's Korrespondent portal, the Ukrainian military-political analyst, says that Armenian on its own "now is incapable of revanchist military operations." It has Russia's backing but not for a military attack. However, Armenian armed formations in Qarabagh will likely engage in partisan war for some time (korrespondent.az/news/aleksandr-kovalenko-azerbaydjanskim-voennym-sleduet-gotovitysya-k-partizanskoy-voyne/9255).
` In other comments, Kovalenko says that Moscow has successfully pursued two goals in its approach to the Qarabagh conflict. It has sought to preserve an Armenian presence there, and it has inserted its own forces as peacekeepers to ensure that that destabilizing factor remains in place and that Moscow can decide if and when violence will occur.
And Kovalenko said that Ukraine is studying Azerbaijan's highly successful use of drones in its operations but indicated that the situation in the Donbass and even more in Crimea does not allow Kyiv the same opportunities that Baku had during its military campaign. Thus, anything Ukraine learns, it will have to modify before applying it.

I think it's a point gained. It was a very bitty game, littered with fouls, and really get going for both teams. We missed a really good chance first half, they missed a really good chance second half, so it's honours even. If they play like they did against us, against the other teams, then I'm sure they'll pick up points along the way. It was a local derby, a passionate crowd, players giving everything for the cause, not a lot of quality on show. We'll take a point and move on.

Cada clase de unión se caracteriza por su propio grupo de proteínas de membrana que mantiene a las células unidas entre sí. Estas uniones conectan las células vecinas entre sí de manera que las moléculas hidrosolubles no puedan pasar entre las células. Estas uniones estrechas están constituidas por proteínas llamadas claudinas y ocludinas que se hallan dispuestas formando una barrera.

Las claudinas se encuentran junto a las ocludinas dentro de las fibrillas celulares de una sola oclusión.

Las ocludinas y las claudinas desempeñan funciones importantes en los seres vivos. En el 2002 se descubrió una función relevante de las zonas de oclusión. Durante muchos años se pensó que la impermeabilidad de la piel de los mamíferos, se debía a la propiedad de la capa externa cornificada de la piel que contiene filamentos de proteína aglomerados y lípidos relacionados. Sin embargo, se descubrió que los ratones que carecen del gen para la claudina 1 morían poco después de nacer a causa de deshidratación. Otros animales que carecen de genes para estas proteínas son incapaces de desarrollar zonas de oclusión epidérmicas impermeables, por lo que sufren la pérdida de agua descontrolada. Sin las uniones estrechas para impedir las filtraciones sería inútil la actividad de las bombas en las células absortivas, como las del intestino, y la composición del medio a ambos lados del epitelio se tornaría homogénea.
Las uniones estrechas también mantienen la polaridad de las células epiteliales

School Bond Measure on February Ballot
From the SVSD website...
The Snoqualmie Valley School Board of Directors has voted to place a school bond measure on the February 10, 2015 ballot, to address district-wide facility needs and provide more space at all grade levels to serve the District's growing student population.
The Challenge: More space is needed in Snoqualmie Valley schools, for ALL students at all grade levels (elementary, middle and high school), to alleviate overcrowding and accommodate long-term enrollment growth. At the same time, ensuring schools are safe, well-maintained and responsive to students' needs — not only by replacing aging systems that have exceeded their functional lifespans, but also by providing modern learning environments to support new educational programs and skills — will help teachers boost learning and students achieve their potentials. New educational programs being implemented at the high school to better prepare students for college, career and citizenship include: the transition to more rigorous Common Core State Standards, increased Core 24 graduation requirements, and a focus on expanding opportunities around Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) learning and career exploration.
The Proposed Solution: Invest in safe and modern schools for ALL Snoqualmie Valley students.
What: A comprehensive, long-term bond proposal to build and make critical repairs and upgrades to schools across the district will:
Rebuild and expand Mount Si High School (to include a Freshman Campus concept on the main campus),then reinstate a third middle school
Construct a new elementary school
Make district-wide improvements to existing schools and systems
Why: Snoqualmie Valley schools are running out of space to serve the growing student population.
All elementary schools are nearly full this year and more space is needed by 2016 for state mandated full-day kindergarten, efforts to lower class sizes, and growing enrollment at grades K-5.
Both middle schools are nearing capacity with growing enrollment in grade 6-8.
Modernizing Mount Si High School benefits ALL students in the community — and expanding the facility to serve freshman on the main campus will allow the District to reinstate a third middle school and alleviate crowding among grades 6-8.
Mechanical systems that have exceeded their functional lifespan need to be upgraded, to maintain the integrity of our school infrastructure across the district.
Who: ALL Snoqualmie Valley students will benefit, as the bond effects all schools across the district.
How: The 20-year bond would raise $244.4 million for capital improvements including school construction and repairs. (The estimated additional cost for per home owners is $1.29 per $1,000 of 2015 property valuation.) The District has a history of completing bond projects on time and within budget as promised.
When & Where:
Ballots must be mailed by February 10.
Passage requires 60% voter approval.

Legislative session marks the best opportunity in years for public schools
The 2015 Legislature kicked off this week in Olympia — and it's our best opportunity in a generation to win increased funding for public education, including educator compensation and smaller class sizes.
"This is a critical opportunity to make a lasting impact for public education and our students," said Karen Cornell, a teacher at Cascade Middle School near Vancouver and a member of the Evergreen Education Association. "The crisis mode is over. We need to restore what we've lost and fully fund public education."
"It's what our kids deserve," added Emily Humphrey, a teacher at Orchards Elementary and also an EEA member.
As educators, we are facing an opportunity that comes along once in a generation. Consider:
The Supreme Court has issued a contempt order for the Legislature to increase K-12 funding.
I-1351 passed and smaller class sizes for all students (and more support staff) are now the will of the voters. In a democracy, that matters and we can't let legislators and others pretend it doesn't.
By law, the Legislature has to restore the voter-mandated cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for educators this year.
The economy is expanding.
Polling shows public education is voters' top priority for the 2015 legislative session.
"Knowing that the Legislature last year found an $8.7 billion tax break for Boeing means that there is absolutely no reason why the public's and our priority can't be funded," said WEA President Kim Mead.
WEA members believe every student should benefit from qualified, committed and caring teachers and education support professionals. We're advocating for:
Competitive professional compensation, including salaries, health insurance and retirement benefits
Smaller class sizes approved by voters via Initiative 1351
Resumption of the voter-mandated COLA
Solid funding for higher education to ensure college students receive degrees, not debt
You can read WEA's full set of legislative priorities for ensuring all students have the opportunity for success in school.
The priorities were approved by the elected WEA board of directors in November. WEA members will have many opportunities to help achieve these goals in the coming months, both in Olympia and in your local community.
Click here to email Gov. Inslee and your legislators and tell them to fully fund our K-12 schools and higher education.
Get Out the Vote Phone Banking
From January 23rd to February 10th, Snoqualmie Valley Citizens for Schools will be calling bond supporters in the Snoqualmie Valley and reminding them to vote. Help is especially needed for February 2nd and later.
This is their single most important campaign effort and where they can make the biggest difference.
The phone banks will operate at Mount Si High School and at least 16 volunteers per night are needed to remind school supporters to vote. Grab some friends and volunteer together!

Norway Spruce
Pinaceae (Pine)
Picea abies
People might think of their annual trip to pick out a Christmas Tree when they look at a Norway Spruce, and they are exactly right! The Norway Spruce is a large pyramidal tree that is dark green in color with long, cylindrical cones. Not only are they extremely popular for the holiday season, but they are also widely used for construction, pulp, furniture and musical instruments. Fun fact #1: The name of this tree is a bit of a misnomer. Although the species does grow in Norway, the Norway Spruce grew in Eurasia, the Black Forest and other parts of the continent long before making its way to Norway. Fun fact #2: The tree at the Rockefeller Center every year during the holidays is a Norway Spruce. Fun fact #3: The young branches in a Norway Spruce are often used to make beer.
Ciara Ostrander
Young trees have finely shredded bark that is thin, while the bark on mature trees is heavier, scaly and sheds relatively easily. The bark grows much thicker with age, and has a gray-brown color.
Branches and tips typically point upwards, but droop as the tree grows. The lateral branches are slightly incurved and ascending. Along each lateral branch has several branchlets that diverge into branched twigs. Along smaller branches, branchlets and twigs have pure, medium to dark green, needle-like leaves. The thicker branches resemble the color of the bark, and as you move along to the tips, you can see yellow/orange to brown color in the tips.
The leaves are needle-like with blunt, pointed tips. They are medium to dark green in color and the individual needles are 1/2 inch to an inch in length. They are smooth to the touch, and are not flattened as they have four distinct sides and are quadrangular in shape. The heads of the needles are pointed, and they spiral around the twig. Spruce needles are attached to the twig via a small woody projection called the sterigma. When the needles fall off of the tree naturally after seven to ten years, the sterigma leaves a distinct bumpiness on the stem area. The Norway Spruce is a coniferous evergreen, it does not shed its leaves in the winter.
The Norway Spruce is a Gymnosperm, which is one of two groups of seed plants, along with Angiosperms. In the Norway Spruce, the sporophyte is dominant, and the gametophyte seeds are more reduced and are retained inside the sporophyte and protected from desiccation. In these plants, pollination has replaced swimming as the mechanism for delivering sperm to eggs. The zygote does not develop into a sporophyte, but it develops into an embryo that is packaged with food inside a seed coat. This protects the dormant embryo from cold, drought and harsh conditions. Additionally, there are two types of sporangia in the sporophyte generation that produces two types of spores: Microspores (males) and megaspores (females). The Norway Spruce seeds are dispersed by the wind. In the life history of the Spruce, there is a much longer diploid stage, but still a haploid stage. The Norway Spruce is a monoecious plant meaning that they have both the male and female reproductive organs on the same plant (hermaphrodite), the sporophylls are on the same mature sporophyte. The female gametophyte develops from the haploid spores that are contained within the sporangia. Both sexes of gametophytes develop from different types of spores produced by separate cones. One of the cones is a small pollen cone (staminate cones), which produces microspores that will develop into pollen grains by meiosis. The other cones (ovulate cones), will make megaspores that will develop into female ovules. Once the pollen reaches the eggs, fertilization occurs and the embryo is packed in a seed coat that contains a food reserve. This phase may take more than a year between pollination and fertilization while the pollen tube grows towards the megasporocyte, which undergoes meiosis into megaspores, that will mature into eggs. When the conditions are right, the seeds will find their way to the soil and becomes seedlings, and eventually mature sporophytes. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-biology/chapter/gymnosperms/
The fruit is an oblong cone, 4 to 6 inches long, that has a reddish-brown color. The scales are stiff and leathery, typically diamond-shaped, have wavy edges, with small irregular teeth. These cones are found at the end of the branches. When the seeds are released, typically in mid to late summer, they germinate quickly in the soil, and generally do not attract animals. The seeds are black, 4-5 mm long, and have a pale brown wing, with a distinct point. Once pollinated by wind, female flowers turn green and enlarge to become red-brown cones. The Norway Spruce has the longest seed cones of any Spruce.

The Norway Spruce thrives in a variety of habitats, but avoids the driest and poorest soils. It is a shade tolerant species, making it a successful competitor. The spruce grows best in cool, humid climates on rich soils. Preferred soils include well-drained sandy loams. However, it is the fastest growing spruce, and can grow in a wider variety of soil types than most other spruces. When introduced into North America, it was mainly planted in the northeast of the United States, southeastern Canada, the Pacific Coast and the Rocky Mountain States, and its establishment is largely a function of where it was planted, as it is likely able to survive in more areas. It mixes well with other conifers and deciduous trees as well. Outside of North America, it is the main species in the Boreal and subalpine conifer forests, from Central to Northern and Eastern Europe up to the Ural Mountains. Due to its large distribution, there are a great number of varieties and forms. This spruce can be expected to grow in Hardiness Zones 3-7 in the US.
The Norway Spruce is native to the European Alps, Northern Europe, the Balkan mountains, and the the Carpathians, with its range extending north to Scandanavia and merging with the Siberian Spruce in northern Russia. It was introduced to the British Isles as early as 1500 AD, and is widely planted in North America, particularly abundant in the northeastern United States, which is where this specific Spruce is located. Most early American forestry depended upon Europe for guidance, thus it isn't strange that the Norway Spruce was one of the earliest species used in forest plantations in the northeast. In one specific study, the oldest planting found was in 1860 near Woods Hole, Massachusetts.
This species is so economically important to humans, and has been for an extremely long time, so it has been dispersed and has naturalized in many areas outside of its native range. In fact, the oldest specimen is approximately 9,550 years old, not only is it the oldest spruce, but also the world's oldest living tree that has reproduced through layering.
The wood of the Norway Spruce is strong, soft, straight and fine grained. It is easily worked, and is often used for construction, pulp and paper production, furniture, and musical instruments. One of its most popular and well-known uses is as a Christmas Tree in countries where it is grown, like the United States. It also also been used for windbreaks and shelterbelts. Additionally, the fresh shoot tips are used medicinally for syrup, teas, baths, inhalation and ointments. Spruce beer can also be made, which was common throughout history in colonial times, and making a sturdy appearance in the French & Indian War. This spruce beer, full of nutritional benefits like Vitamin C, was undoubtedly safer to drink than water. They sustain a large variety of wildlife, especially birds. For example, as native Eastern Hemlocks population decline in Massachusetts, scientists have hypothesized that the non-native Norway Spruce has provided a habitat for the songbirds that rely on the Eastern Hemlock since both species share similar characterisitics.
As discussed in detail in the reproductive structures section, the Norway Spruce is a monoecious plant, having both its male and female reproductive structures on the same plant, and not different plants (dioecious). Additionally, it is wind-pollinated, and not self-pollinated, which is why the female cones sit towards the top of the tree and the male cones towards the bottom. By wind, the pollen from the male cone is carried upwards to the female cones. Norway Spruce cones open from May to June. Seeds ripen in late autumn in the same year, and are released on warm days in late autumn and winter, but are sometimes retained until spring. The Norway Spruce has a long juvenile phase of about 20 years before the first cones are formed. The cones mature from September through November, and seeds are dispersed from September through April. Once the cones have dried thoroughly, the seeds located between the scales of the cones fall out easily.

title: Root Imports
---

```typescript
// Relative import
import { User } from '../../entities';

// Root import
import { User } from 'app/entities';
```

FoalTS build does not resolve root imports by default. You must install the [module-alias](https://www.npmjs.com/package/module-alias) package if you want to use them. Here's how to configure the library with Foal:

```
npm install module-alias
```

Specify the directory from which root imports should be resolved during compilation.

*tsconfig.json*
```json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "src",
    ...
  }
}
```

Specify the directory from which root imports should be resolved at runtime.

*package.json*
```json
{
  ...
   "_moduleDirectories": ["./build"]
}
```

Then register the loader at the top of the file `src/index.ts`.

*src/index.ts*
```typescript
import 'module-alias/register';

// ...
```

If you use shell scripts, the loader must also be registered at the top of each one.

*src/scripts/create-user.ts (example)*
```typescript
import 'module-alias/register';

// ...
```
