Chris Hemsworth on How Being One of the Highest Paid Actors in Hollywood Is Affecting His Family
"I feel gross about it."
by Brooke Marine
Chris Hemsworth is not only the physical embodiment of Marvel's Thor, the god of thunder, a frontrunner in the celebrity Chris ranking, and one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood, he's also a concerned, doting father of three young children.
The actor revealed in an interview with GQ Australia that his big Hollywood paychecks, however, do not always sit right with him as they pertain to his family. Hemsworth is a staple in the Avengers franchise, as well as Snow White and the Huntsman, which brought in $31.5 million in 2017. That massive amount of income even landed the actor on the Forbes list of highest paid actors for that year. Still, Hemsworth admitted that, with regard to the money, "I feel gross about it."
"I remember saving up for a surfboard when I was younger," he explained in his GQ Australia interview. "The surfboard was 600 bucks, and I saved up for a whole year with Dad's help. I didn't even want to surf on it for fear of damaging it. It taught me so many lessons about appreciation and working hard for something."
That memory of saving up for a big-ticket item and treating the object with respect is a feeling the actor said he wishes to pass on to his children. "When I think about my kids, I don't want them to miss that joy. Elsa [Pataky, his wife] and I talk a lot about how we instill that same appreciation and respect for things," Hemsworth said.
"I don't want them to feel like they're privileged in any way," he said, even though, by the very nature of their father's status as one of Hollywood's highest paid actors and the perks that they are afforded due to his profession, Hemsworth's children will live a privileged lifestyle. The actor admitted he is afraid of how their actions may be influenced by the amount of money their parents earn. "The fact that we have money and their parents are famous, that somehow they're special, that scares me because we grew up with no money," he said, recalling his upbringing in Australia with his brothers Liam and Luke.
Hemsworth also admitted that he thinks his concern for raising his children may have even cost him some roles in the past. "There are times when I've thought, Wow, because having kids is more important to me, some of my roles have suffered. There're definitely a couple of films I could've put way more energy into but I was like, 'No, I'd rather be with my kids,' " he told the magazine.

Q: Repeating frames (=freeze effect) while transcoding H264 MP4 creates odd artefacts I'm trying to achieve a freeze frame effect by repeating the same input frame for a few seconds while transcoding H264 to H264 video on a Java / Android platform. I modified  https://github.com/ypresto/android-transcoder/blob/master/lib/src/main/java/net/ypresto/androidtranscoder/engine/VideoTrackTranscoder.java so that I simply skip the android MediaExtractor.advance()
if(timeScaler.frozenAt==-1 ){
     mediaExtractor.advance();
}
else{
    freezeUsec +=  (1000/outputFormat.getInteger(MediaFormat.KEY_FRAME_RATE)) *1000;
    return DRAIN_STATE_NONE;
}
return DRAIN_STATE_CONSUMED;

while the effect is active. My thinking was that this would just make the decoder and the encoder repeat the same data thus producing the desired effect. This works well but I get odd (compression?) artefacts in the frames following the freeze effect. It looks like parts of the frozen frame (arm + ball) gets stuck for seconds. The effect is minimal on some devices and really heavy on other (pictured below):

A: In H.264 only a small fraction of the frames in a video data stream are so-called I frames, also known as key frames or Instantaneous Decoder Refresh (IDR) frames. The rest are P (predictive) frames or B (interpolated) frames. In other words each decoded frame depends on the previous one.
If you suppress the decoding of P or B frames, or decode them repeatedly, you'll damage your decoded picture until the next I frame comes along.

I have no clue what any of Williams' original cue names are, so I made up my own names for all of them, usually just using a description of the scene or some dialogue from it rather than trying to imitate Williams' naming style.
I'm sure I missed some things here and there so I welcome any at all questions and updates and corrections.
# Title On FYC? On OST?
08B [0:35-1:11] (0:36) "Stolen Jacket"
08A [0:00-0:35] "Finn, I'm Rey"
08C [1:11-end] "The Droid Stole A Freigher?"
17A [0:00-1:02] (1:02) "Supreme Leader Snoke"
10B [0:52-end] (1:16) "Arrival At Takodana / You Got A Name?"
11A [0:00-1:21] (1:21) "Maz Examines Finn"
10A [0:00-0:52] (0:52) "I'm No Hero"
11B [1:21-end] (1:46) "Maz and Rey"
17B [1:02-end] (1:01) "Bring Her To Me"
04A [0:00-1:10] (1:10) "R2 Shows The Map"
[1:11-end] = cue 18 The Droid Stole A Freighter?
[0:00-0:45] = cue 57 "Rey Gets The Lightsaber"
[all] (1:19) = OST 09 [1:22-2:13] The Rathtars!
Obviously the main title isn't here, but I don't mind. I've been listening to that piece for 20 years and don't need to hear it everytime I listen to this score. Obviously if you can't live without it, you can use OST track 1 instead of FYC tracks 1 and 2.
For "The Way of the Force", I went with the OST version to get the great music for Rey getting the saber. The FYC version replaces that bit with the music for the X-Wings attack, which is great but since we have similar music in the Sherzo track it was easy to keep the OST version.
OST Track 10 Finn's Confession can replace FYC tracks 10 and 11 if you prefer that album arrangement with the Arrival at Takadona music.
OST 08B [0:35-1:11] (0:36) "Stolen Jacket"
OST 08A [0:00-0:35] "Finn, I'm Rey"
OST 08C [1:11-end] "The Droid Stole A Freigher?"
OST 10B [0:52-1:17] (0:25) "Arrival At Takodana"
OST 04B [1:10-end] (0:21) "Informants"
OST 11A [0:00-1:21] (1:21) "Maz Examines Finn"
OST 11B [1:21-end] (1:46) "Maz and Rey"
OST 17B [1:02-end] (1:01) "Bring Her To Me"
102 minutes of score in the final cut of the film (not including Miranda/Abrams source music). 77 of that released between the OST and FYC, leaving 25 completely unreleased.
The OST has another 15 minutes of music that isn't used in the film anywhere, meaning in total 92 minutes out of the 175 recorded has been released. With 25 of that being the music heard in the film that is unreleased, this leaves about 58 minutes completely unreleased and unheard.
this space reserved for future expansion.
Crazy that there's a whole 14 minute stretch of music unreleased (between the tracks Han and Leia and On the Inside).
I recommend not putting the OST into chronological order. It works almost perfectly as arranged by Williams as a listening experience, save for some repetition in "The Rathtars!"
Interesting, I thought between Rey Meets BB-8 and Farewell and The Trip we had the full "R2 Shows The Map" film version.
Also, I think it's appearance in the film might be tracked or an insert, it replaces a flute bit at 2:05.
It works almost perfectly because it's the more chronological of his recent albums. Fortunately he didn't do his typical "listening experience" thing this time.
Interesting, I thought between Rey Meets BB-8 and Farewell and The Trip the full "R2 Shows The Map" from the film.
I am saying that the music you say is unreleased is just 0:00-1:10 of Rey Meets BB-8.
If this were a new Middle-earth score You would have done it already!
Some very clever person on a certain illegal website did an extensive theme breakdown for every track.
But the rest of the album track is the actual cue for Rey meeting BB8. I guess Williams just liked the way the later R2 cue opened better than the early cue so put it there.
As much as I love Burning Homestead, I really wish they used Williams original intention when Rey gets the lightsaber.. It was distracting to me (since I know it by heart) and disappointing since the original would have worked perfectly. What prompted them to change it??
Yes, I think we got an effective and enjoyable album presentation.
Thanks, Jason, for this superb work. It's interesting to have the estimates of music yet to be released. I'll pay more attention to the film when I see it for the second time on tuesday, hoping to contribute on this thread, but the list is already highly detailed.
Wow, nice job! Curious... how many visits to the theatre does it take to compile this?
I was thinking I wanted to make myself a chronological edit, but like many of you said, the "listening experience" works for a change here. Best one since Empire Strikes Back's 2-LP. I love the Prequels expanded scores but their OST's were terribly incomplete and nonsensical listens on their own.
I've cleaned up the main posts a bit. The new board software actually makes editing the HTML table much easier!
Also, i've been thinking about "Snoke": I think it could be a concert arrangement too! Or, maybe not technically a concert arrangement, as much as a piece that was recorded "wild", not to picture, to be used as a bed underneath any Snoke scenes. It's possible they hadn't figured out the timing of the Snoke scenes while Williams was scoring.
Basically, its REALLY hard to hear what is going on in the film during the the two major Snoke scenes music-wise, but the first one is definitely different than the music in the OST track. It's possible the OST track is an alternate and not the film version, but it almost sounds like the film scene is scored with a normal cue, but then also the choral stuff from the OST track is mixed underneath it as well.
Great job Jason! Thank you!
I just might take you up on that suggestion Stefan.
EDIT: I see Fal beat me to it in his theme thread. Good job Fal!
Just what my ears tell me when comparing the OST track to the film.
Well, I'll go back and re-evaluate those two spots in the film when I get a chance.
LOL! Obviously I didn't do this in the movie theater! I've seen the film theatrically exactly once - Thursday opening "preview" night, earliest showing - and just enjoyed the movie without analyzing anything. I figured out all this stuff at home!
I would love to have the scored cues for sequences not in the final film. I think for that we'll have to wait for game rips since its very unlikely to be in a 2CD release if its not in the film...unless these sequences (like the ground assault) are in the blu ray.
I wonder how the cue titles would translate if Giacchino had scored this film..
I wonder how substantial the complete complete score is. Even with the film cues, it still feels a bit incomplete for some reason.
I agree. Looking at LeBlanc's complete cue list, there seems to be a shitload of short cues, which do not make for a great musical narrative. And it feels like there are "gaps" in this musical narrative (for example, from The Rathtars! to the arrival at Takodana music). It also lacks some lengthy musical sequences. For example, the big action climax of the score is reduced to the second half of Torn Apart and The Ways Of The Force (excluding Scherzo For X-Wings, since it's a concert arrangement), which feels too short for what is supposed to be the musical culmination of the story. There has to be more than just that.
But I'm sure the complete score has a lot of cues that "fill in the gaps", as I think I remember someone posted an interview where J.J. said they first scored the movie almost wall-to-wall, then decided to have more moments without music to let the film breathe a bit (or something like that). So I'm thinking there's quite a lot of unused music. Right now, there are approximately 61 minutes of music we haven't heard yet (we can hear 101 minutes of music in the film + 13 minutes exclusive to the OST, and we know they recorded about 175 minutes of music), and I'd say about half of that must be unused music (and not alternate music for what is heard in the film), either for deleted scenes or scenes in the film which were left unscored in the final mix.
This has likely already been discussed, but has the "chewie we're home" cue with the version of Luke's theme been released on the FYC or OST? Also, can the music heard when Han is in the falcon cockpit for the first time in TFA be heard on either of those releases (this music may be part of the cue that I mentioned first in this post)?
Chewie We're Home is on the OST (first minute of The Rathtars), but the film version does seem a little different. It's not on the FYC.
Han in the MF cockpit is completely unreleased.
Thanks. I love that version of Luke's theme in Chewie We're Home. I do wish we had the cue from shortly after -- with Han in the cockpit (for the first time in the film), though.
I like that quieter rendition of the rebellion march during the briefing scene. I wish it was one the OST or FYC if only to provide the march in a quieter version instead of the heroic versions we already have.
I don't even remember that cue but from the description alone I want it!
I didn't notice the cue myself until the third viewing. It isn't really as important as the other unreleased cues we got on the FYC, but it does provide the march in a different context. The march plays softly on strings for a moment.
I think I didn't hear a lot of these little cues in the movie because on opening night, every time an Original Trilogy character showed up on screen, a large chunk of the audience clapped, cheered, hooted and hollered as if cheering a live sports team or a live, in-house performance. Couldn't hear the movie for several seconds. Usually why I prefer watching movies with just a handful of people I know; i.e. friends and/or family. Planning on taking my brother in the next day or so with a small, afternoon audience that hopefully won't give an inanimate object film a standing ovation.
Alright, I finally had time to finish my second pass through the film, and have completely revamped the complete cue list in the main post. A few spots I had thought were unreleased before are actually on the OST, and the whole list now takes into account what we learned from the FYC.
1. I was wrong before when I said thanks to the FYC we now have the entire opening of the film; There's actually a completely unreleased cue that goes in between the "Part 1" and "Part 2" FYC tracks of "The Attack on Jakku". Basically: "Part 1" covers the Star Destroyer reveal / ship launch, Poe and Lor's convo, and the entire seige on the village by the stormtroopers ending with Ren's arrival. Then the cue for Lor and Ren talking ending with Ren killing Lor is completely unreleased. "Part 2" is the music for Ren and Poe's convo and Ren's order to Phasma to "Kill Them All", including the transition back up to the Star Destroyer. That final note of the cue is a stinger for Finn entering the center of the frame in the Star Destroyer hanger.
2. The opening 39 seconds of OST track "The Scavenger": Anyone feel like almost doesn't belong here? It's possible this bit was intended for the scenes of Rey in the Star Destroyer but was dialed out, but I wonder if it could actually be for some entire other scene I haven't identified yet?
3. Rey Meets BB-8 OST cue: This is is so confusing! Essentially, the first 1:10 of this OST track is used twice in the film: Once for when Rey meets BB8, but then again when R2 powers up and shows the map for our heroes. However, neither time it exactly matches the OST version (you can tell yourself by comparing FYC version for its second use). So it's hard to know which scene it was intended for and which was tracked, and where the different music comes from (Inserts?). The part from 1:10-end of the track doesn't appear in the film at all, further confusing things!
4. I think the opening ~30 seconds of the OST track "I Can Fly Anything" is an alternate, earlier opening of the cue. The final film / FYC version's first ~1:00 is probably an insert recorded later to replace it.
6. The whole ending of "The Rathtars!" is actually different from the film version and there's other music in the track that wasn't in the film. Again see the revised cue list and OST breakdown.
7. Frankly I'm confused by the two version of "Snoke". Basically, Snoke has 3 scenes in the film. The first scene we have exactly what's heard in the film in the FYC track. BUT I think the choral stuff there is exactly the same as the OST choral stuff. But on the OST, the choral stuff goes on for longer then has some orchestra stuff at the end that isn't in the film. The second Snoke scene, the music is hard to hear. I think it might re-use the same FYC/OST choral stuff, but I'm not sure. The 3rd Snoke scene is short and I don't think has a choral element (can't remember now). So basically, I think he recorded what's on the OST as "Snoke" as a wild arrangement designed to be a good listening experience on the OST, and the choral stuff was put into the film for the first Snoke scene, mixed with the orchestra cue he wrote for it. Or something. Long story short, I think it makes sense to just use the FYC track in the flow of the film score, and the OST track as a bonus track, but you could place in chronologically where the second Snoke scene goes too, if you want. But it definitely repeats the same choral performance!
There's still so many tiny differences between OST and FYC/film to breakdown, but I think I got all the major stuff covered now!
So, I thought it'd be interesting to put together a breakdown of the OST to see how Williams compiled it. Here we go!
scene (cue 25 / FYC 09), and I believe his second scene too.
[0:00-0:45] = cue 56 "Rey Gets The Lightsaber"
The OST has another 15 minutes of music that isn't used in the film anywhere, meaning in total 92 minutes out of the 175 recorded has been released. This leaves about 83 minutes completely unreleased and unheard.
I think I'll start work on my edit tomorrow.
I'm waiting for the FYC to leak in lossless before doing mine.
I was gonna, but who knows when that will be?
I predict next week sometime, but of course there's no guarantee of anything!
I actually havent listened to any of the FYC at all.

Eva Longoria Shares Her Post-Baby Fitness Plan
"I really gave my body time to adjust."
By Celia Fernandez
Almost six months after giving birth to her son, Santiago, Eva Longoria Bastón says she's ready to get back in the gym.
The 43-year-old star opened up to Us Weekly about how she'd been taking time to enjoy being a new mom, instead of worrying about losing the baby weight right away.
Saturday smooches with my Santi 💋
A post shared by Eva Longoria Baston (@evalongoria) on Nov 10, 2018 at 10:57am PST
"I really gave my body time to adjust to postpartum and post-pregnancy. You know, it had a baby!" she says. "It created a human life, so I really wasn't too hard (on myself) about getting back into shape."
Now, the political activist is easing back into a new exercise routine and paying attention to her diet again too.
"I'm working out a lot more and watching what I eat. I'm barely starting to get back into it," she says. "My workouts now are very serious weight training."
Why the Political Activism of Eva Longoria Matters
The Desperate Housewives alum likes to switch up her fitness regimen. "I do a lot. I'm a runner, I do yoga, I do pilates. I do SoulCycle and I'm just constantly mixing it up," she told People in 2017.
She also reminds us that there's no magic way to get in shape. "Everybody thinks there's some kind of secret to looking good, but it's not a secret. It's diet and exercise."
Good morning! 🌞
A post shared by Eva Longoria Baston (@evalongoria) on Dec 30, 2016 at 10:02am PST
Longoria Bastón and her husband, José Antonio "Pepe" Bastón welcomed Santi, as they call him, on June 19, 2018. Just a month after their two-year wedding anniversary. The couple got married in Mexico on May 21, 2016 after being set up by a mutual friend.
"My partner in crime! He hates when I post pics of him, but my husband is the best human being I know. We travel the world together, we laugh together, we love each moment together in pure joy. You are my angel Pepe Baston, put on this eart to fill my heart with love and happiness. Te amo vida mía!," she captioned the photo below on Instagram in 2017.

Production Details A p23 targeting vector, constructed from genomic fragments, but replacing exon 1 of the p23 gene with a resistance marker, was transfected into 129 ES cells. Properly targeted ES cells containing a homologous recombination event were selected, and injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts. Chimeric offspring were mated to C57BL/6 mice to generate mice heterozygous for the p23 knockout allele, p23+/- mice.

Q: How to save as ArrayList, all possible combinations of a set of characters in string? How can I save as an ArrayList all possible combinations of a set of characters in string?
You can see my code below. It only print the combinations, but doesn't save all combinations. Any idea?
public class All_Possible_Combinatons
{

static String combinations(char[] sequence, char[] data, int start, int end,
        int index, int r)
{

    if (index == r)
    {
        for (int j = 0; j < r; j++)
            // = data[j];
            System.out.print(data[j] + " ");
        System.out.println();
    }

    for (int i = start; i <= end && ((end - i + 1) >= (r - index)); i++)
    {
        data[index] = sequence[i];
        combinations(sequence, data, i + 1, end, index + 1, r);
    }
    return null;

}

public static void main(String args[])
{
    char[] sequence = { '0','1','2'/*,'3','4','5','6','7','8','9',':',';','<','=','>','?','@','A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J','K','L','M','N','O','P','Q','R','S','T','U','V','W','X','Y','Z','[',']','^','a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z' */};
    System.out.print("The combinations are: ");

  // printCombinations(sequence, sequence.length);

    int N=sequence.length;
    char[] data = new char[N];
    for (int r = 0; r < sequence.length; r++)
        combinations(sequence, data, 0, N - 1, 0, r);
}

A: This is may not be the effiecient one but give it a try:
List<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
    int[] a = {0,1,2};
    for(int i: a){
        list.add(i+"");
    }
    for(int times = 0; times < a.length; times++){
        String first = a[times]+"";

        for(int i = 0; i< a.length; i++){
            String temp = first + i;
            list.add(temp);
        }
    }
    for(String s: list){
        System.out.print(s + " ");
    }

Output:
0 1 2 00 01 02 10 11 12 20 21 22

A: With your current method.  You need to switch up your method to get this done properly.

My attempt using your current method.

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class JavaApplication47
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        char[] sequence = { '0','1','2'/*,'3','4','5','6','7','8','9',':',';','<','=','>','?','@','A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J','K','L','M','N','O','P','Q','R','S','T','U','V','W','X','Y','Z','[',']','^','a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z' */};

        System.out.print("The combinations are: ");

        // printCombinations(sequence, sequence.length);
        List<String> list = new ArrayList();

        int N=sequence.length;
        char[] data = new char[N];
        for (int r = 0; r <= sequence.length; r++)
        {
            list.add(combinations(sequence, data, 0, N - 1, 0, r));
        }

        System.out.println(list.size());
        for (String combo : list)
        {
            System.out.println(combo);
        }
    }

    static String combinations(char[] sequence, char[] data, int start, int end, int index, int r)
    {
        StringBuilder stringbuilder = new StringBuilder();
        if (index == r)
        {
            StringBuilder stringbuilder2 = new StringBuilder();

            for (int j = 0; j < r; j++)
            {
                //System.out.print(data[j] + " ");
                stringbuilder2.append(data[j]).append(" ");
            }
            //System.out.println();
            return stringbuilder2.append(" - ").toString();
        }

        for (int i = start; i <= end && ((end - i + 1) >= (r - index)); i++)
        {
            data[index] = sequence[i];
            stringbuilder.append(combinations(sequence, data, i + 1, end, index + 1, r));
        }
        return stringbuilder.toString();

    }

}

Here is my version with your combinations method altered

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

        System.out.print("The combinations are: ");

        // printCombinations(sequence, sequence.length);
        List<String> list = new ArrayList();

        int N=sequence.length;
        char[] data = new char[N];
        for (int r = 0; r <= sequence.length; r++)
        {
            list.addAll(combinations(sequence, data, 0, N - 1, 0, r));
        }

        for (String combo : list)
        {
            System.out.println(combo);
        }
        System.out.println("list size: " + list.size());
    }

    static List<String> combinations(char[] sequence, char[] data, int start, int end, int index, int r)
    {
        List<String> list = new ArrayList();

        {
            List<String> tempList = new ArrayList();
            StringBuilder stringbuilder2 = new StringBuilder();

            for (int j = 0; j < r; j++)
            {
                stringbuilder2.append(data[j]).append(" ");
            }

            tempList.add(stringbuilder2.toString());
            return tempList;
        }

        for (int i = start; i <= end && ((end - i + 1) >= (r - index)); i++)
        {
            data[index] = sequence[i];
            list.addAll(combinations(sequence, data, i + 1, end, index + 1, r));
        }
        return list;

As of 2016, one in 19 children in the US were uninsured—more than 3.9 million. Poor children and children of color have worse access to healthcare and worse outcomes than their higher-income, white counterparts. And since children with unmet health needs fall behind developmentally and have trouble catching up physically, socially and academically, this is no small problem.
But despite tremendous progress expanding access to health coverage to children across America, Texas has the highest rate of uninsured children in the country, with nine percent of children uninsured, nearly double the national average. Poor children and children of color have worse access to healthcare and worse outcomes than their higher-income, white counterparts.
All children in America should have access to health and mental health coverage and care that is comprehensive, affordable and easy to get and keep regardless of income, zip code, place of birth or immigration status.
Since 1999, CDF-Texas has collaborated with partners in the Texas CHIP Coalition and regional coalitions across the state including the Gulf Coast CHIP Coalition, Children's Health Coalition of the Rio Grande Valley, Equal Voice Network, and RGV Border Health Coalition to champion access to health coverage and care for all Texas children. Our efforts to expand coverage for children, protect and invest in children's health in the state budget, and improve outreach and enrollment systems for children and families have resulted in more than one million more children gaining health coverage. CDF-TX is working to protect and build upon these gains to ensure that every Texas child has a Healthy Start.
We work to ensure all children have access to health and mental health coverage and care that is comprehensive, affordable, child-appropriate, and easy to get and keep regardless of income, zip code, place of birth of immigration status. To do so CDF believes we must:
Hold the Line to Ensure Children Do Not Move Backward: Despite historic gains in health coverage for children, Medicaid, CHIP and the ACA continue to face serious attacks. CDF continues to fight to protect and strengthen these critical sources of health coverage for children to ensure children continue to move forward, not backward.
Finish the Job of Enrolling All Eligible Children in Comprehensive, Affordable Health Coverage: CDF seeks to maximize the promise of Medicaid, CHIP and the ACA by ensuring every eligible child is enrolled in affordable health coverage that guarantees all necessary services, is affordable and easy to get and to keep. CDF works to improve enrollment and retention in health coverage by supporting policies that eliminate bureaucratic barriers and through proven strategies, such as express lane eligibility and partnerships between school districts and community agencies.
Advance Innovative Policies and Practices to Improve Children's Access to Health Coverage and Care: CDF sees exciting opportunities to maximize child health coverage and outcomes and has long championed the need to move our nation toward a seamless, universal system of coverage for children. We work to ensure child-appropriate coverage is central to any health care reform proposals from their inception.

Report on Chirinkotan (Russia) — 25 March-31 March 2015
Chirinkotan
25 March-31 March 2015
Global Volcanism Program, 2015. Report on Chirinkotan (Russia). In: Sennert, S K (ed.), Weekly Volcanic Activity Report, 25 March-31 March 2015. Smithsonian Institution and US Geological Survey.
Weekly Report (25 March-31 March 2015)
48.98°N, 153.48°E; summit elev. 724 m
SVERT reported that on 27 March a thermal anomaly over Chirinkotan was detected in satellite images. Cloud cover prevented views of the volcano on the other days during 23-30 March. The Aviation Color Code remained at Yellow.
Geological Summary. The small, mostly unvegetated 3-km-wide island of Chirinkotan occupies the far end of an E-W volcanic chain that extends nearly 50 km W of the central part of the main Kuril Islands arc. It is the emergent summit of a volcano that rises 3000 m from the floor of the Kuril Basin. A small 1-km-wide caldera about 300-400 m deep is open to the SW. Lava flows from a cone within the breached crater reached the shore of the island. Historical eruptions have been recorded since the 18th century. Lava flows were observed by the English fur trader Captain Snow in the 1880s.

2M left before 250M. LETS GO CO-BLINKS, LETS PROVED THE WORLD THAT OUR FANDOM iS THE BEST ♡ .
This was the best night of my life, I went to my first ever concert and I am so happy that it was Blackpink. They may have had some setbacks like Jisoo being under the weather, Jennie had a tech problem at the very beginning and I think Lisa had a tech problem or was accidental hit( I didn't see what happened to her) which stopped her from performing for like 5 seconds, but anyway it was a night full of joy and happiness, heck we even saw the kissing bandit Lisa strike Jisoo( sorry Jenlisa shippers and Chaelisa shippers). I never thought 10 years ago that I would enjoy a certain type of music. I always kept listening to whatever was on the radio and never truly appreciated music until I heard a K-Pop song and now I am hooked into it. I wasn't there when they debuted back in 2016, but I became a Blink in 2017, and I will be a Blink until the day I stop breathing. I love you Jisoo, I love you Jennie, I love you Rose, I love Lisa, I LOVE BLACKPINK!!!
How do we know that our views has been count it the MV??? I want to stream right to make it reach 300M as fast as I can.
BLINKS KEEP STREAMING ! I BELIEVE IN US, WE MUST GET TO 1B I KNOW YA'LL CAN DO IT! Rn I'm streaming from 2 phones and one computer! let's do this !!!
We need 6 million or more everyday to reach 300 million.. Go go fighting!

Okay but outfits at 1:15 are banging!!!
Blinks let's stream like it's the first day of release!!! Come on I feel like there aren't much views these past days!


So I'm officially lame at keeping up this blog. I have enough trouble keeping up my regular blog, and I'm trying to launch a photography one....so thus, blogging on this one suffers!
But just so you know- yes, I'm still continuing to host families and am loving it. I need to glance through my guest book and get the running total, but I've been opening my home to adoptive families for 2 years and 2 months now and I'd guess I'm somewhere at around 80 families hosted! It has been heaps of fun-- so many stories shared and so many wonderful new friends.
Next project...writing a book! :) Hopefully it will come together better than this blog currently is!
Email if you want info on housing and follow along at my regular blog here.
Do you ever just wish you could take a perscription pill to make your post-adoption challenges fade away?? I know many do!
There is a very exciting resource I want to share with foster and adoptive families- one that Orphan's Promise launched just in the last few months--a new DVD series called 'Adoption & Foster Care Rx, Solutions for Wounded Families.' Its a series with seven sessions, including real stories from real adoptive families and also advise and interviews from the experts, including the brilliant Karyn Purvis!
Several of my dear friends who have walked the adoption journey are featured in this series and it is so exciting to see how God is using their stories to minister to others who are walking the same path of ups and downs.
I'm just thrilled we took this project on. I'm a huge fan of promoting adoption, but I also know that as strongly as we advocate adoption we must also provide the resources needed to be successful and the places to turn with things are down right HARD.
One year and one month- that is how long my home has been being used to house adoptive families.
34- That is the number of families that have passed through my home in the last year.
43- That is the number of children who now have homes because of these families.
I am overwhelmed by the goodness of God this past year. Though there have been moments of feeling exhausted and a little overspent, the word that describes this past year has been REFRESHED.
I love hearing people's stories. I love hearing how God has called people to adopt. I love seeing the church become passionate about the things that are close to the heart of God. I love seeing injustice defeated. I love seeing orphans placed in families...orphans no more.
When I set out to take on this 'hospitality ministry' I was hoping that God would use my home to bless others, but I never expected that I would be the one to receive so many blessings in return. I have been humbled to walk along side those that are living a faith that bleeds. I have made friends for life on this adventure and I can truly say that my cup has been filled to the brim with joy. More than I ever expected.
**Reposting this here, as I think it is a GREAT God story to be told!
I've been on my fare share of adoption emotional roller coasters in the past several years. Even though I have yet to adopt myself, I feel like I've earned a couple dozen kids when I think of the number of adoption processes I've walked through with families, and the amount of sweat and tears I've shed riding the roller-coaster that is called adoption.
This past month the Degnan family has been living with me in my home in Kiev. Jamie and Tiffany and their daughter Lily are a part of Grace Place church in Colorado-- a church that feels like home to me, and yet I've never even been there! About 7 families have passed through my home this year that are connected with this church, so whenever they land in Kiev we are quick to become friends simply because we already have so many dear friends in common.
At the Degnan's first adoption appointment they opted to not take a referral for a child, hoping they'd be given more files to choose from the second time around. The second referral sent them to a region to meet a darling little girl who they would later come to find out was already being pursued for adoption by another family. In true Ukrainian fashion nothing here has gone in a timely manner, and thus the Degnans waited and waited weeks for their 3rd and final appointment with the adoption department. In Ukraine you only get 3 chances to choose a child, and if the child says no, there are no 're-dos' - you go home. Doesn't seem fair in a country with 30,000 orphans available for adoption, but that is the way the game here is played.
Well, their 3rd and final appointment was on Monday. I had hoped to go along, but the lady at the door didn't seem to like that idea, so I instead spent the next hour pacing in front of the door praying, praying and then praying some more and telling the devil to leave that building. After an hour they exited the room with faces bright and smiles...I took this as a good sign.
They quickly told me they had taken a referral for a 10-year-old-girl (for this post we'll call her Anya), a girl who had just become available the Friday before. I guess God knows a thing or two about perfect timing doesn't He? I told them that her name means a gift from God, and in my heart I was praying that her name would be prophetic.
Plans were made for the family to depart that night to the region to meet her. However, before tickets were even purchased they got a phone call from the director of the orphanage and were told that Anya had been notified that a family was coming and made it clear to the director that she had no desire to be adopted.
My heart sunk for this family. How could it be that after waiting in country for a month for a referral it could come down to selecting a child that didn't want to be adopted?
Though I typically don't travel to the regions with families, I felt like this situation warranted extra help and perhaps I could help bridge some communication gaps when they would meet her for the first time. So we boarded the train, tried to tuck our worries away and settled in for the 10 hour journey to her region.
"God will make a way, where there seems to be no way...."
I've not sung that song since I was a little girl, and yet there it was in my head, loud and clear, as if I had sung it in church just yesterday. Okay Lord, I thought, I believe that, I know you can make a way. So make it!
The next thing we know little Anya is walking into the the room. She greeted us with her big brown beautiful eyes. I told her that we were aware of her hesitations and yet this family was here to get to know her. Would she be willing to get to know them a bit? She smiled big and said yes and before we knew it we were carted off into another room where we proceeded to pour over pictures and share stories about life in America. We told her about all the Ukrainian kids in their community in Colorado and how she would be able to have lots of Russian speaking little friends. Her eyes seemed to light up at this information.
All in all the interactions seemed great. Nothing overtly magical, but she was sweet, made great eye-contact and seemed pleased to spend time with all of us. She was whisked away for lunch after a short while and then came back for more pictures and questions. Before long everyone was called back into the director's office. Everyone sensed what was about to happen.
My heart broke. Little Lily looked up at me, 'what did she say, Karen?' I don't even want to open my mouth. 'She said no, sweetie,' not fully wanting to believe the words I'm giving life to in English.
I cannot put into words what it felt like to be in that room in that moment. It was like a bad dream. Here I was standing behind a family who was offering a little girl a new life, unconditional love, parental care, protection and hope of a better future. They were standing there with arms wide open and she could see it, and yet the familiarity of the orphanage seemed the better choice.
Through tears they communicated to her that they understood her choice and wouldn't want to force her to do anything. She needed to want this. And with very few other words spoken, that little brown-eyed girl walked out of the room, leaving a very silent room behind.
In that moment I felt as if I had been given just a tiny glimpse to the heart of God and how he feels towards us. He offers us that same gift through Jesus, and yet how many people have chosen to walk away? How many people would rather stay in their 'orphanage' then follow God into the unknown? Do they really comprehend the gift they are rejecting?
In that moment I understood God's love and human free will in a way I never had before experienced. Here was a family overwhelmed with love for a little girl they had only just met and yet they recognized that the love would only be real if she came to it on her own volition, not by coercion. She had to make the choice. And in that moment she had chosen to walk away.
And yet that silly song was still playing in my head.
Seriously God?? It's OVER. She said NO. No more song! I DON'T GET THIS!!!! This doesn't make any sense!! Here this family has spent a month in Ukraine, they have a heart for adoption, and now you bring them to this moment? They go home without a child? Lord, I do not understand your ways.
This was of course my internal dialogue that I was not communicating to our distraught party. Just my own wrestling with God as I was trying to make sense of it all.
We all moved into another room to wait on the papers that needed to be drawn up saying that the girl had said no. Once our eyes were dry from tears I had a really good talk with Tiffany. I remember so clearly the words she said. "I don't have to understand the why of all this, I don't know how God is going to use our story, but I know he will. I know that my faith doesn't hinge on this, it is bigger than this. God is faithful and I now appreciate his love for me and my salvation in a whole new way." I was amazed and humbled to see her hope in the midst of her deep deep pain.
We meandered our way back outside to find the taxis that were waiting for us. We stood huddled together on the snowy pavement, 'hey look' I said to Tiffany 'the sun is still shinning.' It was as if I was needing to remind myself, as much as I was them.
The door flung open and out walks the facilitator with a smile on her face. "Anya changed her mind!"
WHAT? We all said in disbelief.
She repeated herself...."Anya changed her mind!"
We learned that she had gone back to her class and couldn't focus one bit. Her mind was spinning and all of sudden her decision hit her hard. She stood up in the middle of her class declaring, "What have I done?" and then raced down to the directors office to find out if it was too late. She had made a mistake and wanted the family to come back.
We all crowded back into the room and there she sat, a smile on her face with words declaring she'd made a mistake and this time she was certain in her answer. Her answer was yes...there was no doubt.
I have yet to know what was going through that little girl's mind, the fear and the hope perhaps wrapped all together in one. I cannot imagine how difficult it was to say no and then how much courage it took to run back down those steps praying she wasn't too late. I am glad she wasn't.
I'll admit, my faith at times is very small. I know God is a BIG God, but on this day I experienced this reality in a whole new way. A glimpse of His heart, a glimpse of his love and a glimpse of his grace.
I think I'll have to start humming that song a little more often.
I have had the privilege of hosting some dear friends for the past 7 weeks (well I was gone for 3 of those weeks!).
Clarke and Kris Stoesz have been staying with my while they have been completing the adoption of their daughter Samantha Rose. This has been one of those long stories in the making, as they waited over a year for their lovely daughter to be available for adoption. We brought Samantha (then Ana) on a hosting/camp trip to the US in the summer of 2010 in partnership with Ukraine Orphan Outreach and it was there that she met the Stoesz family... and well, you know how the story goes! A connection was made to say the least. It took a long while for everything to get in order with Samantha's documents, but I was thrilled to learn that this Christmas season would be the time to welcome the Stoesz family to Ukraine!
Clarke and Kris are on my list of heroes of the faith. This is their 4th (yep that's right- you read 4) adoption and their love and dedication towards the orphans of Ukraine continue to inspire me. I've had the privilege of partnering with them in ministry for about 4 years now as we have teamed up to bring kids to the US for summer camps and have partnered together in continuing relationships with the kids in the orphanages. They seek to glorify God in all they do and I see that their ministry is truly one that seeks what is always best for the children. Not to mention the fact that they appreciate all things Ukrainian and have such a love for this country. They also have quite the sense of adventure and managed to take overnight trains to 3 separate regions of Ukraine while they were here--despite the fact that they only had to be in Kiev for their adoption! Gotta love adventure- right?
Though I love opening my home to all the different families I've met on this 'hospitality' journey-- I always count it as a true honor when I get to open my home to people that I already consider dear friends. And after sharing a living space for over 4 weeks I'd say we've earned the right to say we are even closer! Nothing like brushing your teeth together to be bonded for life!
Their daughters Rhya and Natalie (also adopted from Ukraine- pictured above) were able to be a part of the adoption adventure for the first month and it was fun getting to know their spunky personalities while they were here in Kiev. It was a full house and I wouldn't have had it any other way!
Since returning from the US last week I have so enjoyed the time I've had getting to know sweet Samantha. What a precious young lady she is and a joy she has been to have in my home. She has got to be one of the most helpful kids and I've yet to hear an ounce of complaining come out of this girl's mouth. I'm going to miss her sweet smile (and the after dinner dish washing too!). I know she will be a huge blessing to the Stoesz family-- as she has been the missing piece to their family puzzle.
** As of now I have families scheduled through February 12th!
Tis the Season...to have an appointment!
Hello adoption friends! Well the adoption center is back in business and so am I! Many families have received appointments for the month of December and it is great to have things moving again and seeing more kids placed in families!
This Saturday my dear friends Clarke and Kris Stoesz will arrive to complete the adoption of Anna...a girl they've been waiting for since she was hosted first over a year ago! Anna is in Kiev region and the Stoesz family will be at my apartment for the duration of their adoption. After doing ministry together for many years, I'm so thrilled I can help them in this way. It works out well, since I am headed 'home for the holidays'- so they will be holding down the fort while I'm away.
This means I won't be able to schedule new families to stay with me till likely the middle to end of January as that is when I will return to Ukraine-- and about when the Stoesz family should be departing home with their new daughter!
Sorry I won't be able to assist more families this month.
I've known Illya for a couple years through various ministry we have done in Kherson (Illya grew up in the main Kherson orphanage). However I didn't get to know him better until this past summer at camp, when he was in my English group. I always make kids sing silly songs in English and it seems to make us connect! He went along with it anyway-- good sport that he is. We had a lot of good laughs in the process.
Illya is just the sweetest most polite kid! He was one of my 'best' students and I quickly learned it was because he had spent the Christmas holidays in the US, with an American family. I also soon learned that this family was amidst the paperwork process and would soon be traveling to adopt him! I was so excited when I found this out! A 16-year-old boy-- on the verge of aging out, would be given a family-- just in time.
I knew that Illya would do well in America. I also knew that a boy who is biracial would be accepted better in the US- then he ever would amidst the racism that is so prevalent in Ukraine. I asked Illya all about his soon to be family and made a point to remember their names so I could track them down and connect with them.
After camp I searched all over the internet and could not find this couple who Illya said was going to adopt him. It seemed I must have had the name wrong or something!
Well about 2 weeks after returning from camp I get an email from....you guessed it-- Illya's adoptive mom! Apparently she has been a blog follower of mine for awhile and when she saw Illya's picture posted along with the story I had written about camp she figured I must know her son and decided to write me and connect! I just love when God allows connections like this to happen-- just too cool. The woman I was looking for had found me!
So all this back story to say....Illya's family finally got their adoption appointment to travel over and get him this fall. His parents stayed with me on their way to the region so I got to hear more of their story and how adoption was the last thing on their mind....until they met Illya! I love when God moves like that!
This past week Illya and his mom stayed with me again as they were finishing up at the embassy and getting ready to head home today. The other night as we were all hanging out in the living room I looked at Illya and I looked at his mom and I couldn't help but smile. I love when life comes full circle like this. A boy I meet and get to work with at summer camp winds up being an adopted child that I get to see placed in a family-- a family that I then am able to open up my home to.
It really doesn't get much sweeter than that!
I've been in Kiev since 2004 working with orphans, adoptions, adoptive families, graduate orphans and directing the operations of Orphan's Promise in Ukraine.
I have a passion to see kids in families and to see families have an enjoyable experience while in Ukraine.
Hospitality House serves to help adoptive families who are in need of housing while in Kiev and are also looking to save money!

In collaboration with the scientists of the Astro-particle Physics and Cosmology (APC) division of SINP, work has been initiated on the search for WIMPs as cold dark matter candidates. This is a collaborative work as part of PICASSO experiment stationed at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNOLAB), Canada. This has evolved from the in-house developmental work on superheated drop detector (SDD) for radiation detection and dosimetry. Recent activities include development of electret microphone based acoustic pulse detector to go with SDD for fast neutron spectroscopy, wide bandwidth acoustic pulse detection technique using commercially available MEMS based piezoelectric sensors, exploration of neutron and gamma response using radioactive source, neutron gamma discrimination by pulse analysis, and GEANT based simulation of the SDD response. Studies on neutrinoless double beta decay using CdZnTe detectors have also been initiated. Major interest in ths study is the exploration of the unconventional double positron decay mode, which is relatively easy to detect without significant background contamination. In collaboration with IIT Kharagpur, members are involved in planning and setting up of a double beta decay experiment. Initial study on contamination level of CdZnTe, procured from CEL, New Delhi, has been carried out.

What is an Agile worker?
An agile worker is one who is permitted to work wherever he or she chooses provided the work gets done!
Agile work can embrace a wide range of new ways of working, but each one if not adequately considered in the context of physical and cognitive hazards, can have a significant impact on the organisation, which may create far more reaching issues. Therefore, an ergonomic and human factors approach must be undertaken to Agile Worker assessments.
While the introduction of pods, touch down areas, breakfast bars, coffee shop sessions, rest areas, co-working and collaborative spaces etc can be good, there is often a lack of joined up thinking that has taken place that lead to design failings. A quick glance of many companies advocating new workplace designs show literature with photos riddled with poor design where models adopt poor posture. Are they really the people to give you the best advice?
Given the above definition of Agile work it soon becomes apparent that a single risk assessment is not sufficient, and a comprehensive risk investigation should be undertaken.
We would tailor our assessment and investigation to your exact requirements to ensure that you can adequately manage and safeguard your agile workers.
Do laptop, tablet and smartphone users require an assessment?
Yes, as they are display screens and therefore come under the DSE Regulations 1992 amended 2002.

Second colossal LinkedIn "breach" in 3 months, almost all users affected
LinkedIn has reportedly been breached—again—following reports of a massive sale of information scraped from 500M LinkedIn user profiles in the underground in May. According to Privacy Shark, the VPN company who first reported on this incident, a seller called TomLiner showed them he was in possession of 700 million Linkedin user records. That means almost all (92 percent) of LinkedIn's users are affected by this.
The underground seller known as TomLiner is in possession of the 700M LinkedIn records on sale. They're also classed as a "GOD User", which could suggest that their name has weigh in the underground market. (Source: Privacy Shark)
RestorePrivacy, an information site about privacy, examined the proof the seller put out and found the following information, scraped from LinkedIn user profiles:
Full names
Physical addresses
Geolocation records
LinkedIn username and profile URL
Personal and professional experience/background
Other social media account usernames
Note that account credentials and banking details don't appear to be part of the proof. This suggests that the data was scraped rather than breached. Scraping happens when somebody uses a computer program to pull public data from a website, using the website in a way it wasn't intended to be used. Each individual request or visit is similar to a real user visiting a web page, but the sum total of all the visits leaves the scraper with an enormous database of information.
How was the seller able to scrape hundreds of millions of records? According to RestorePrivacy, the seller abused LinkedIn's API, a similar tactic to the one used in the almost-as-enormous April LinkedIn "breach", and the huge Facebook "breach" in the same month.
The seller confirmed that they abused LinkedIn's API to scrape data. And sells them for $5,000 USD. (Source: RestorePrivacy)
In a statement, Privacy Shark garnered from Leonna Spilman, who spoke on behalf of LinkedIn, the company claims there is really no breach: "While we're still investigating this issue, our initial analysis indicates that the dataset includes information scraped from LinkedIn as well as information obtained from other sources. This was not a LinkedIn data breach and our investigation has determined that no private LinkedIn member data was exposed. Scraping data from LinkedIn is a violation of our Terms of Service and we are constantly working to ensure our members' privacy is protected."
Spilman's statement echoes the one LinkedIn released after the April "leak" blow out: "We have investigated an alleged set of LinkedIn data that has been posted for sale and have determined that it is actually an aggregation of data from a number of websites and companies. It does include publicly viewable member profile data that appears to have been scraped from LinkedIn. This was not a LinkedIn data breach, and no private member account data from LinkedIn was included in what we've been able to review."

Some may read news stories like this and think "Eh, they just got my info that I wanted to be public. It's not a big deal, right?"
Look at it this way: Having, say, your email address or contact number available for everyone—even strangers—to see is risky. If they know these two things about you, you can be a candidate target for spam campaigns: email, SMS, and robocalls. We don't know anyone who likes receiving these campaigns.
To make matters worse, the more that scammers know about you, the more plausible and enticing they can make their messages for, and the easier it is for them to pretend to be you when scamming others.
If you're a LinkedIn user, and you're worried about the possible repercussions, now is a good time to take the time to sit down and audit your LinkedIn profile.
Start with security: Make sure you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. You may also want to check whether your email address or phone numbers are on HaveIBeenPwned (LinkedIn suffered a genuine breach in 2012, and over 100 million passwords were stolen).
Don't know what HaveIBeenPwned is? Check our writeup about it what it is and how to use it here!
Take a look at your LinkedIn profile and decide which bits of it you'd rather make private. After all, if a company shows interest in hiring you, you can give them some of your info, such as your contact number, if they ask for it. Better yet, consider setting up a Zoom call with them instead. Remember that you, as a LinkedIn user, can decide which information to show or hide, and who gets to see them, too.

University of Mary selected to lead 2017 March for Life Rally in DC
Students from the University of Mary will lead the 2017 March for Life in Washington D.C.
The University of Mary in Bismarck, ND, has accepted an invitation from Jeanne Mancini, president of the March for Life Education and Defense Fund to lead the 2017 national March for Life Rally, Friday Jan. 27, 2017, in Washington D.C.
Msgr. James Shea, president of University of Mary, prepares to board a stranded bus following the 2016 March for Life in the nation's capitol. (photo courtesy of University of Mary)
"Our selection is due in no small part, I'm sure, to the resilience and witness of this year's 2016 March for Life participants from Mary, under the leadership of Pastor Kerry Bender, Dr. Chris Collins, and Sisters Hannah Vanorny and Idelle Badt," said University of Mary President Monsignor James Shea, who always takes part in the march with Mary students. "Their story is now almost legendary, and it drew more awareness to this year's March than anyone could have anticipated."
Shea is referencing the national media attention he and University of Mary students attracted when they and thousands of march-goers were snowbound 54 hours on Pennsylvania turnpike in buses lined up for miles returning home from the 2016 March for Life.
Anne Dziak (Di-ZHAHK) of Chicago, IL, helped lead the chants and cheers on the Mary buses in 2016 as a senior accounting major, and now as an alumna is organizing and in charge of the massive contingent headed to Washington D.C. in January. That's no easy task for anyone, but Dziak is used to the leadership role. This will be Dziak's 12th March for Life, after starting a pro-life group at her local parish back home when she was 16 years old. She and her sister helped grow its membership to its current 1,000 and named it The Crusaders for Life in Chicago. The University of Mary contingent she is leading in January expects to be in the hundreds.
#WhyWeMarch

"We're expecting close to 500 students with eight or nine busses — but that number could climb between now and January," said Dziak. "You can feel the energy and excitement in the air because many who wanted to go last year elected not to because of the stormy weather and now they are all counting down the days. Along with leading the March for Life, it is inspiring to be a part of a university that embodies education 'for life' in everything it does and promotes as part of its slogan. As a recent grad I am able to embrace the idea that the education that I received here at the university will benefit me throughout all stages in life. My fellow colleagues and Mary students will be at the forefront of this massive pro-life rally, leading, chanting and marching — for life."
The March for Life has been held annually in Washington for more than 40 years. It is a bipartisan, interdenominational gathering of hundreds of thousands of Americans who travel to the nation's capital to testify to a message which is powerful and life-affirming.
The University of Mary, with just over 3,000 students, has been a part of this March for the last six years. In 2016 the University of Mary bused 100 students to Washington D.C.
