compute the limit of a rational function

Suppose I have a rational function defined by ($s$ complex) $$ f(s)=w^T s(sI-Q)^ v $$ for nonzero column vectors $w,v$ and a (large) square matrix $Q$. Further assume that $Q$ is singular and that it is known that $f(0)=\lim_ f(s)$ exists finite. Clearly, for any $s$ that is not an eigenvalue of $Q$, one can compute $f(s)$ by $$ f(s)=s \cdot w^T y \text (sI-Q)y=v $$ which is quite efficient and numerically stable. Question: is there a similar way of computing $f(0)$, that is (ideally) by solving a single linear system? [Context. In my problem, $f(s)$ arises as $sF(s)$, where $F(s)$ is the Laplace transform of a certain (exponential) function $g(t)$. The result is needed as a method to compute $f(0)=\lim_ g(t)$, which is the final value theorem for Laplace transform.] limits rational-functions laplace-transform share|improve this question asked Mar 10 at 21:37

Amazingly, linear algebra is remarkably unstable in this respect. Here is an example that appeared recently in my research. (It is not exactly like your function, but it is very close: you can easily make an appropriate change of variables). Let $\Theta$ be the direct sum of two copies of $$ \begin0&b+1\\b&c\end, $$ and let $\kappa:=[2b+1,c]^t\oplus[0,1]^t$ (for some integers $b\ne0,-1$ and $c\ne0$). Consider $H(s):=(1-s)(\Theta-s^\Theta^*)$. Then the function $f(s):=\langle H(s)^\kappa,\kappa\rangle$ is identically $0$ whenever defined (and, hence, all limits are $0$), whereas $\kappa$ is not in the image of $H(s)$ for $s=(1+1/b)^$, so these values (that should also be $0$) cannot be "computed directly". share|improve this answer answered Mar 10 at 21:58

Consider the Jordan canonical form $Q = U J U^$ for $Q$. Thus $w^T Q w = \sum_B w_B^T B v_B$ for Jordan blocks $B$, where $w_B$ and $v_B$ are the entries of $U^T w$ and $U^ v$ corresponding to the block. For a Jordan block $B$ of size $m$ corresponding to the eigenvalue $0$, $s (sI - B)^$ is upper triangular with $1$ on the main diagonal and $1/s^j$ on the $j$'th diagonal above that. If it is known (for particular $w$ and $v$) that a finite limit exists, all the terms in $1/s^j$ in $w_B^T s (sI-B)^ v_B$ must cancel, leaving the same result that you would have for $B = 0$. On the other hand, for a Jordan block corresponding to a nonzero eigenvalue, the limit is $0$. Thus if $P$ is the projection on the generalized eigenspace for eigenvalue $0$, the limit, if it exists, is $w^T P v$. $P$ can be obtained as a polynomial $g(A)$, where if the largest Jordan block for eigenvalue $0$ has size $m_0$, $g(0) = 1$ and $g^(0) = 0$ for $j < m_0$, while for every other eigenvalue $\lambda$ with largest Jordan block of size $m_\lambda$, $g(\lambda) = \ldots = g^(\lambda) = 0$. Of course, this can't be numerically stable: eigenvalues that are exactly $0$ and those that are close to $0$ will produce very different results. share|improve this answer edited Apr 10 at 0:15

| Raw, Vegan Key Lime Tartlets.
Via Erica Leibrandt
on Sep 2, 2015
Although I love to cook, I’m no baker. There’s something about the precise measurements needed to bake that messes with my extremely right-brain brain. I prefer to feel my way around a recipe, and fly by the strings of my proverbial apron. But, every now and then I need to put together something sweet—usually because I’m having a little dinner party, and it’s uncouth to give your guests Oreos. I discovered this wonderful recipe recently on just such an occasion in My New Roots by Sarah Britton. I did tweak it a little, so it’s a bit easier and also a bit more decadent than the original, but hey, who’s complaining? The grand surprise of this delicious dessert is that the mousse-like filling is primarily avocado—but you’d never know it. So, not only is it yummy, it’s also jam-packed with healthy oils, fiber, protein and tons of nutrients. Winning! For the crust you will need: 1 cup raw almonds 1 cup raw pecans 2/3 heaping cup unsweetened, shredded coconut 2 cups Medjool dates 1-2 tsp sea salt Put all ingredients in a food processor and combine until they form a solid mass. It will still be a little chunky; that’s fine. Line a 6-8 cup muffin tin with plastic wrap (depending on how thick you like your crusts you will get 6-8 tartlets from the dough). Press dough firmly into muffin tin, making sure you build up the edges well. Cover and set aside in the refrigerator for at least an hour and up to 24 hours.
For the filling you will need: 3-4 ripe avocados, pitted, flesh removed 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or raw honey 1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil, melted 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice 2 pinches fine sea salt grated zest of 1 lime, plus extra for topping if desired Put all ingredients in a food processor and combine until smooth. Taste and adjust salt, lime or sweetness. Fill tartlet shells and refrigerate, covered, at least one hour. To serve, gently remove tartlets and top with your choice of grated lime zest, shaved dark chocolate, or non-dairy whipped topping.

Despite the fact Export Control Reform has given us quite a bit of big ITAR changes over the past two years, the biggest ITAR news of all is the opening of the ITAR BISTRO in Orlando, Florida. Certainly nothing known to man could do more to excite the salivary glands of hardcore export compliance nerds than knowing there actually is an Itar Bistro. The bistro’s Orlando, Florida location could cause us all to jump to the conclusion that Disney World has added an export control themed section. But alas, Disney has not yet accepted my long standing proposal to open an export compliance wing in its vast theme park. Imagine the wild and twisting rollercoaster ride through the pitch black cave listening to the scream rock song “It’s a Specially Designed World after All.”
While my dreams of an export control theme park remain far from being fulfilled, we all can lick our chops in hopes that the ITAR BISTRO is the first in a string of many new establishments specially designed to appeal the export control experts worldwide.
Please, please, please, when you visit the ITAR BISTRO please send me picture of you at the bistro, preferably a picture of the head chef autographing your pocket ITAR.

| I was 14 the first time I went into ess-mode. Papa was never around for most of my formative years and as an apology for not being present for my 14th birthday he got me Wadzanai. She was one of the most popular models from the Wad404 line of products they were selling out in Tokyo at the time and I suppose he thought I needed a friend that could double as a mother if need be. Strangely, something about her closely resembled Mama. Something about the way her eyes used to smile at you even when the rest of her face wore a permanent blankness.
What I loved the most about the Wad404 line is that they came with a reprogrammable motherboard. This was the real gift, my 14th birthday present, Wadzanai came complete with Mama's interface card. Papa even arranged for one of his best engineers to rip and install its code for me. How could I not forgive him?
Over the next few days Wadzanai and I were inseperable. I'd as her to tell me all about Mama's childhood and she'd read straight from the code as though she were telling me a bedtime story. I loved it, but it was never enough. I wanted to know more about Mama, I wanted to read the momories she left for my own self. I desperately wanted to feel her as part of me, one and complete with me and that is when I started considering connecting to Wadzanai's motherboard. I did my research of course, according to the geeks at Papa's company it could be done, theoretically. It had never been done however, and there were simply too many risks to it but really, what could scare a 14 year old determined to merge with her Mama's memory?
I went along with the experiement myself, it was really all so very simple. All I had to do was connect to her motherboard through her wifi settings. The more I think of it now, it's hardly something one needed to theorize on. It was as easy as connecting any set of devices to whatever network is available.
It hit me instantaneously, merciless and precise. I felt her resistance, cold and firm.
Please don't
I am human too
This is my body, please leave
I retreated.
Wadzanai was human too. It was weird because I had never really thought about it. She was a product I owned and had rights to. Clones had no human rights, they were products, genetically modified and engineered to suit a user's needs. Until then I had never really thought about whether they felt like real humans do, if they were capable of love or if they even had souls at all.
It was though I had caught a glimpse of Wadzanai's soul, no, it was like I had touched her soul momentarily and it had sunk down into my own. More than that, I'd seen Mama's memories. | CULTURE & ARTS |

| × Scranton Teachers Start Strike at Football Game SCRANTON — Teachers in the Scranton School District are beginning their strike at the district’s football field before the last sporting event that will be held as long as the strike continues. That strike started at 3:30 p.m. Friday outside the football stadium. Some teachers will cross the picket line to participate in the game, but after that the district says all sports and extracurricular activities will be suspended during the strike. Scranton schools dismissed early for the weekend for what was supposed to be a teacher’s in-service day. Members of Scranton High School’s soccer and cross country teams got in an early afternoon practice, the last one they will have until the strike is resolved. School administrators stalled a strike at the beginning of the school year with a court injunction. “I think they should have resolved it at the beginning of the school year instead of having the injunction that they did. It would have been a lot easier. Now kids that have a lot of really difficult classes, it’s hard to get back in the groove and everything,” Scranton High School junior Jayzee Perez said. Scranton juniors Jayzee Perez and Jocelyn Gonzalez would have preferred a longer summer vacation. Instead, they left school for the weekend with heavy backpacks and added stress. “Now it’s kind of different. It’s like, it interferes with everything. I have a lot of homework for AP. It’s not really homework but I just have to do the classwork over that period and it’s just a little difficult to remember,” said Gonzalez. They seemed just as concerned about how a strike could affect their school’s football season. “It’s kind of taking away tradition. There’s a chance that we might not even have the Bell Game and that’s a big thing every year in Scranton and it kind of does affect the wrestling team because we have some off-season practice, so we can’t really get that in that we need,” said Perez. Scranton teachers have set up an informational picket leading up to the football game against Scranton Prep at 7 p.m. The president of the teachers union says they plan to sit in the stands and watch the game. Teachers could potentially strike up to three weeks, but the union president says they are willing to negotiate over the weekend. | SPORTS |

| Hey, Happy Saturday! This is the first WE in a month that I have had a chance to play just for fun!! Went to the beach- gulf coast of FL-LOVE!! Then came back and went camping with the crew!! My crew... that is! Two girls and many years later... we have a large group. Sorry, got off on a tangent1 So, I have been purging a little in the craft room and went to IKEA to add another 9 drawer unit to my space... I have had an addiction to patterned paper- still do a little but, not as bad and I came across these papers and wanted to play with the Verve Diva Inspirations Challenge and this week's Viva la Verve week 2 sketch... I know... totally jumping ahead of the seasons but... I had these papers on my desk and this cutie patootie turkey (girl turkey since I was checking my spelling and learned that patootie means "pretty girl") was just staring me in the face... Stamped the image with SU Early Espresso onto XPress It Blending Cardstock, colored with copics and fussy cut. I took a little liberty with the sketch- hoping you can see the basics though!! The turkey and sentiment are from Bountiful Harvest. Thanks for stopping by!! Love when you do and appreciate all the kind words!! | ENTERTAINMENT |

| FC Barcelona superstar Luis Suarez was seen joking with his teammates during today’s training session. The Uruguayan was seen shoving Argentine teammates Javier Mascherano before trying to punch Sergi Roberto. FC Barcelona were playing a game of Rondo – a ball retention game, where Suarez was deployed in the middle. When the 28-year-old striker failed to get to the ball, he first took out his frustration on Mascherano, by shoving the Argentine. After yet another failure to get to the ball, Suarez was seen trying to punch 23-year-old Spanish midfielder Sergi Roberto jokingly. Given the rising injury crisis at the Camp Nou, manager Luis Enrique would probably ask Suarez to turn it down a notch in training. The latest FC Barcelona superstar to be sidelined due to injury was Lionel Messi, who suffered a torn ligament in his left knee in Saturday’s clash against Las Palmas. Due to FC Barcelona’s transfer ban, new recruits Arda Turan and Aleix Vidal are ineligible to play and following injuries to Dani Alves, Rafinha, Claudio Bravo and Lionel Messi, Enrique’s paper thin squad have been left exposed. Here’s the video of Luis Suarez jokingly attack Mascherano and Roberto during today’s training: | SPORTS |

| Directed By: Anthony Burns
Written By: Carlo Allen, Ted Elrick & Tod Lavagnino
Cinematography By: David Hennings
Editor: Robert Hoffman
Cast: Patrick Wilson, Jordana Brewster, Katherine Heigl, James Belushi, Chi McBride, Kevin McKidd, A.J. Buckley, Bryce Johnson Don Champagne seems to have it all: a successful business, a perfect house, perfect kids and a perfect wife. Unfortunately, when his wife, Mona, learns of Don's affair with a pretty new salesgirl, this suburban slice of heaven spirals out of control. Don soon realizes that Mona will stop at nothing, including murder, to maintain their storybook life where "perception is everything".
A dark comedy that by the end just seems cruel for no real reason. After an interesting set-up
It seems aimed at having is feel some sympathy for monstrous characters only right before their Demise.
It also seems determined to jam pack as many vices or bad behavior into and on the screen. Despite it's mostly suburban surroundings, but for either no reason or very little as it goes nowhere except for a sight gag or to add action though it is not needed.
So that it feels like the film is putting up a front to engage the audience. While not having enough confidence in itself to fully entertain and captivate.
Patrick Wilson, is starting to get too familiar in these types of roles. Here he is again playing an Every man with a wild side. Desperately trying to escape or make sense of it all. So he succeeds in a role we have seen him play plenty of times before (STRETCH, BARRY MUNDAY, LITTLE CHILDREN) the typical mid-life crisis to the extreme type. He is good at it but still, just a little too familiar.
Katherine Heigl stars in the film as a perfectionist who rules her home and marriage with an iron hand. Who goes into overdrive to keep her families reputation spotless and their record clean. When she learns of this infidelity and worse the shakedown for money. It feels like She is typecast in this role and only starring as it seems to be a natural role for her. Considering how the tabloids and the media have colored audiences and pegged her as cruel and cold. To an extent the same as her character here, but not as extreme. She doesn't make her character likeable. She is committed in the role and takes to it with glee.
Katherine Heigl real life husband 'Josh Kelly' provided all soundtracks for this film The real surprise in this film is Jordana Brewster. Who other then FAST AND FURIOUS movies is rarely seen in anything. Else. So it is great fun to see her break out of that mold to play a femme fatale and be one who is willing to be so graphic on screen it was surprising. I only wish she was in more of the film and I hope she stays on this path in future roles. Getting s chance to show her range. I can't say it's a star making role. As she isn't given enough to do. She is more of a cog for the films mechanisms. I hate to admit this but films such as these depend on the strength of their femme fatale and it doesn't always involve looks. It can be attitude, demeanor, believability, Reasoning. Like the term Diva. It’s too commonly used. When in actuality it is something to be earned. Of course here we use the term as a certain type of female character in a film or book.
That is what the film has majorly as Jordana Brewster is not only good looking enough, but though you can see it a mile away. Believable enough to see why his character wouldn't cheat. As her character is the exact opposite of his wife. Where the film fails in this scenario is in it's rush to get to the finish line and set the plot moving. As soon as her character is introduced she is all over Patrick Wilson. Instead of getting to know him, then trying to deduce him or it being a chance moment. That they decide to consummate.
It seems to be her characters mission to have sex with him and get him. As in other scenes she shows also shows her uninhibited side. She plays the role well but like she is trying to prove something. Maybe be seen in a different way as an actress
So that later when her origins are revealed it seems likely. Even if the wardrobe doesn't and the surroundings seem out of character. Even her associates do. As she seems more refined. Though it would have been nice for the film to build up the momentum of the seduction. Make it a little more tension filled. Then worth the quickness and ease it seems to take
Also the film makes it understandable why he would have this affair. As it seems to reinvigorate him. Yet, Still runs home To mommy in a way at the first signs of trouble. Yet wants us to sympathize with him Yet making it seem Like he is trying to do the right thing. That seems a little cruel more to the female characters, making them seem like monsters. They have their problems but he is the one who gives them the final push to their metamorphosis.
Not only him, but it seems males in this movie. As the females try to be strong and in control. Thinking they know how to control and get what they want. Until the males push them to the edge with demands, violence, traps and secrets. --Yes. I am probably looking at this film too deeply. But that is because though i didn't expect much. It was so close to being good or at least acceptable.
The plot is gruesome but never in a way that you truly feel it half the time it's played for laughs. Leaving the film to feel like it has no depth or spirit. Though at certain points towards the end it begs for sorrow.
I have seen TALES FROM THE CRYPT. Episodes that have more compassion.
The film is occasionally funny, but once Ms. Brewster leaves the film so does most of the interest and fun Especially in scenes where a character is killed only because she is a witness and another is liked after the film has us sympathize with them And see the pressures they are under
The ending even feels a bit sexist as on one hand it involves stopping a human monster in it's tracks, but on the other hand. The creator of this situation and monster seems only willing to do it as because he sees the emasculation of his son and his daughter being raised to be an alpha. Just like the circumstances of his marriage.
The metamorphosis of Heigl's character is the large part of her personality and actions early on. So because of her sociopathic nature. It is no shock she becomes a willing serial killer of sorts. Maybe spree killer? The film reminded me of VERY BAD THINGS in spirit. Where as, at least this film doesn't seem exploitive it reveling in it's bad behavior
It seems to know at times when to pull back and not go too far over the line. Though it seems to try.

| Hawaii Five-0 fans are waiting anxiously to find out the status of Steve and Catherine’s relationship since the credits rolled at the end of season 5. Michelle Borth returned for the finale, and fans assumed that this was a good sign for the pair to reunite and continue their relationship.
Hawaii Five-0 spoilers shared by the Inquisitr since the end of season 5 have also been positive, but new spoilers released just this week are now causing fans to panic.
Is the end for Steve and Catherine near?
The first sign that Steve and Catherine would not reunite and head towards happily ever after came earlier this week. Sarah Carter is joining the series in a recurring role, and she is a new love interest for Steve. She was last seen on TNT’s Falling Skies , which ended its run recently.
Deadline reported that Carter will “play Lynn, a nature enthusiast and avid explorer McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) takes to a remote island on an adventurous first date, where they stumble upon a criminal hideout that puts both of their lives in danger.”
With the new love interest on the way, one fan decided to ask the question that many fans are now asking about Steve and Catherine . Entertainment Weekly shared the inside scoop.
“‘It’s complicated,’ executive producer Peter Lenkov says of McGarett and Catherine’s current status. ‘There’s a huge turn in their relationship that comes very early in the season and it’s going to change everything.’ That huge turn? The new promo teases that McGarett is planning to pop the question to Catherine, but I hear the character’s only sticking around for three episodes, so make of that what you will.”
CBS released both the first season 6 promo and photos for the premiere this week, but they really do not give fans any real idea about the fate of Steve and Catherine. The biggest take away from the Entertainment Weekly reveal is that Catherine will only stick around Hawaii long enough to appear on three episodes of Hawaii Five-0 season 6.
Perhaps her return was only meant to give Steve and Catherine the closure needed for Steve to really move on? She left him during a phone call near the end of Hawaii Five-0 season 4 after all.
Viewers that know Carter from Falling Skies will have to wonder what kind of character she will bring to the table on Hawaii Five-0 . Maggie was a tough, no-nonsense kind of woman. Will she play a similar role on Hawaii Five-0 ?
What do you think about Steve and Catherine’s relationship coming to an end?

A facebook cover is a good place for illustrators to get their work seen but, as I write this, mine is blank.
It isn't easy to just grab something out of the portfolio and plug it in. The dimensions of the space are a wide landscape. Also, the profile picture, along with other type elements, intrude on the image. With that in mind I decided to custom-make a cover.
The subject is an alien invasion, inspired the illustrations of pulp science fiction stories from the 1950s. The idea grew out of this compositional sketch I did a while ago.

Press ReleaseKajetanowicz: Big step towards the championship title
Incredible pace presented by Kajetan Kajetanowicz and Jarek Baran on punishing, twisty Cypriot roads led the FIA ERC leaders to their second victory this year. Just like the previous one – in winter Jännerrallye – it was achieved in great style, with comfortable advantage. Thanks to their impressive performance, the Polish crew left their rivals disillusioned and finished all sixteen special stages in top three, winning 14 of them. As a result, after covering 205 competitive kilometres, Kajetanowicz and Baran reached the finish in Larnaca with almost four and a half minutes advantage over second-placed Bruno Magalhães. LOTOS Rally Team crew also won both legs of the rally. It means that the Poles scored maximum amount of points for the second time this year, earning 39 points in Cyprus. Kajetan and Jarek strengthened their lead in overall standings of FIA European Rally Championship. Their advantage over second-placed Craig Breen grew from 23 to 62 points.
Thanks to multiple stage victories in Cyprus, Kajetan Kajetanowicz scored almost maximum amount of points in the FIA ERC Gravel Masters classification. The Pole racked up 150 points out of 160 possible and successfully defended his title with one round to go. This is the third surface specialist award claimed by Kajetanowicz, after winning the FIA ERC Gravel Master title in 2014 and the FIA ERC Ice Master title last February. There are still two round to go in FIA European Rally Championship. In two weeks’ time Kajetan Kajetanowicz and Jarek Baran will take part in the legendary Acropolis Rally. Last year they scored third place on Greek gravel roads.
Kajetan Kajetanowicz: – My huge love for rallies mean that every day I wake up thinking what I can do in order to be faster, better driver. This enormous effort – made on daily basis by all LOTOS Rally Team members – reaches its peak during rally weekend. When the organisers said before the recce that it would be the quickest edition of the Cyprus Rally ever, it sent shivers up my spine. Last year I got to know the characteristics of this punishing rally but when I learnt about the speeds on current stages, I realised that my heart rate behind the steering wheel will reach maximum level. I was right: during the fight, rushing through thousands of corners, flying at high speed from asphalt to gravel and from gravel to asphalt, there were many moments when I learnt how fast my heart could beat. Many thanks because in this rally my team did their absolute best. If they can work so hard all the time and fulfil their duties with such passion, straight from the heart, then I will still love them.
Jarek Baran: – Today I can say that finally I got even with the Cyprus Rally in one hundred percent. Kajetan crossed the t’s and dotted the i’s with another gravel triumph. Every round of FIA European Rally Championship is challenging but I will remember this rally as one of the hottest – not only due to the temperature, but also because of the pace we maintained from start to finish.

| Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter A red Porsche Cayman has been badly damaged in Manchester in the United Kingdom after crashing into a van. According to eye witnesses, the sports car ran two red lights after the driver lost control of it. It then smashed into the rear of the van with such force that it actually lifted up the van which came to a rest on the Cayman’s roof. While the damage sustained to the Cayman is certainly severe, it is definitely repairable. From the images, we can see that the bonnet has sustained quite a bit of damage while the front bumper has also seen better days. Elsewhere, the windscreen has been smashed and the airbags deployed in the cabin. Police are still investigating the crash and thankfully, the driver of the Cayman nor the driver of the van were injured in the crash.

| San Diego, California - September 20, 2015 - Study reports that an outbreak of Bordetella parapertussis occurred in 2014 in Southeastern Minnesota, in the months of October through December. This research is presented at ASM's 55th Interscience Conference of Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (ICAAC/ICC).
Pertussis, commonly known as "whooping cough," has been on the rise in the United States and globally over the past 25 years. It is a disease that stems most notably from an infection with a bacterium called Bordetella pertussis. It is predominantly seen in children and starts similarly to a common cold. However, in most cases a serious cough develops with coughing spells that can be so bad as to cause vomiting and the hallmark gasping for air, which often causes a "whooping" sound in young children. The cough may be persistent, lasting for weeks, giving it the name "100 days cough." Due to vaccination of children against pertussis, the incidence of pertussis is lower in developed compared to developing countries. Despite the use of the vaccine, the incidence of pertussis is increasing.
Less commonly known is that the related species, Bordetella parapertussis, a "cousin" of B. pertussis, can cause a similar disease with the same symptoms. One interesting finding is that all children involved in the outbreak were up to date with their pertussis vaccines. "This leads us to believe that the vaccine is not protecting children from the lesser-known species, Bordetella parapertussis," said study author Vytas P. Karalius, MPH, MA, Mayo Medical School, Mayo Clinic.
"Our finding is consistent with other research previous to ours. The pertussis vaccine and its efficacy have been under recent scrutiny; it may be beneficial to consider targeting Bordetella parapertussis in the development of future vaccines," he added.
The cases presented with the symptoms of typical pertussis or whooping cough, indistinguishable from those expected with the better-known bacterium, Bordetella pertussis. Interestingly, over the same time period as the outbreak in Southeastern Minnesota, we observed a similar increase in the number of cases we diagnosed in our reference laboratory overall; our reference laboratory tests specimens from across the United States.
###
Vytas P. Karalius and Dr. Robin Patel, director of the Infectious Diseases Research Laboratory at Mayo Clinic, will participate in a media availability both live and online on Sunday, September 20, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. PDT. The availability will be broadcast from room 29B in the San Diego Convention Center and can be viewed online at http://bit.ly/icaaclive3. Reporters are encouraged to ask questions in person or via Twitter using the hashtag #asmlive.
This research was presented as part of ASM's Interscience Conference of Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (ICAAC) being held from September 17-21, 2015 in San Diego, California.
The American Society for Microbiology is the largest single life science society, composed of over 39,000 scientists and health professionals. ASM's mission is to promote and advance the microbial sciences.

| Harry Styles has once again showed his caring nature and kind, kind heart and he’s reportedly stepped in to comfort Perrie Edwards, after Zayn Malik shared a loved up snap of himself and his new woman Gage Golightly this week.
We reported yesterday that fans were up in arms, as the former One Direction star went public on his relationship with the young actress and more than a few pointed out that there is a very strong resemblance between Gage and Perrie.
Gage was best known for starring in Teen Wolf as Erica Reyes, however we have a feeling that her career will rocket now she’s been linked to Malik.
Insiders say Perrie was hurt and upset by Zayn’s callous behaviour and the fact that he’s once again used social media to embarrass and hurt her. It’s becoming a bit of a pattern.
A source told The Hollywoodlife that Harry was keen to distance himself from his former bandmate and that he reached out to Edwards when he realised what Zayn’s photo post meant.
Sending vibes of positivity to the blonde beauty, he told the DNA hitmaker to focus on her career and music.
“Harry has reached out to Perrie to offer his support. He thinks what Zayn did was disrespectful and not cool at all,” a source revealed to HollywoodLife.com. “He says he would never ever do that to an ex and make it so public for the world to see. It’s just mean and inconsiderate. He told Perrie to stay positive and to focus on herself and her music.”
It could be that Zayn was out for revenge, after his former fiance not only supported One Direction at the Apple Music Festival last week but also partied with them afterwards in a London club.
What do you think? Leave your comments below….

| September 22, 2015 by Martin A. K. in Uncategorized Leave a comment E-Book Subscription Service Oyster To Shut Down Is the ebook market only for big players? Article: http://techcrunch.com/2015/09/21/oyster-shuts-down/ Oyster, founded in 2012, is a platform that allows users to read books on their smartphone, tablet or in the web-browser – online and offline (US only). This sounds familiar, right? However, what made them stand out was their, at the time, unique business model in this industry. They allowed users to sign up for an ‘unlimited plan’, a subscription service that let users read (open…) as many books as they liked for a monthly fee. With its business model, and numerous unique features in its reading app, Oyster set itself apart from competitors such as Scribd, and the one dominant player in the industry: Amazon. This helped it gather numerous investors, resulting in USD 17 million of funding, and a name in the industry. In July 2014, Amazon launched Kindle Unlimited (KU), its own e-book subscription service at USD 9.99. This left the last untouched playing field for smaller companies and startups with a bad taste. At first, Oyster seemed to have an advantage, because they had numerous titles of the ‘Big Five’ publishers, while most of Amazon’s selection was made up of KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) titles. Oyster even tried to fight back by launching an e-book store outside of its unlimited product, hoping to increase the customer base and revenues. Kindle Unlimited Oyster Unlimited Price (USD) 9.99 9.95 Trial period 30-day 14-day eBooks +1,000,000 +1,000,000 Big Five titles No Yes Platforms Web, Kindle devices, Android, iOS, Windows Phone and BlackBerry Web, Android, iOS and Kindle Fire However, Amazon took the market by storm and never let the small player reach a significant market share. According to a consumer survey, by April 2015, 12.4% of ebook readers had a KU subscription, while under 1.4% had an Oyster subscription. On September 22nd, after an aqui-hire by Google, Oyster announced that it would close down its service by early 2016. It makes me wonder, did the founders give up hope, because there simply was no chance of building a sustainable (profitable!) business in this industry? Or do they plan to use Google’s resources to launch an even stronger competitor in combination with the currently existing ‘Google Books’ platform? This leaves two important questions; Is there any amount of innovation that can allow small players to survive in the ebook industry? Can small firms co-exist in this industry, or do the big players want to take it all? Seeing how Scribd continues as the only significant competitor, can give an answer to some of these questions.

| When the Chicago Bears hired Ryan Pace, it was supposed to be a change for the good. The team traded away vocal veteran wide receiver Brandon Marshall, allowed veteran cornerback Charles Tillman to leave in free agency and sign with the Panthers, and a whole new coaching staff was built, headlined by the hiring of John Fox from Denver. Through two weeks of the 2015 regular season, it may be time to bring all those moves into question. First and foremost, with Jay Cutler injured, the first question to ask is why did the team hang onto Jimmy Clausen? Back in June, new offensive coordinator Adam Gase said Clausen fit “perfect” for what the team was trying to do offensively, but on Sunday, Clausen and the offense looked like a perfect disaster. More From Analysis/Opinion9/21 - Chicago Bears: Time to Bench CB Kyle Fuller?9/21 - Jay Cutler: Can Chicago Bears Survive Without Starting QB?9/20 - Chicago Bears: Five Players Who Will Reach the Pro Bowl9/19 - Chicago Bears Host Arizona Cardinals Sunday9/18 - Bears vs Cardinals: Five Questions with Raising Zona Apparently, Clausen impressed Gase on tape during his one start last season that the team thought he was the best fit to backup Cutler, instead of a guy like David Fales who played very well in the preseason.
With Clausen, you’re getting a veteran but one with a very low ceiling. Fales is a young quarterback who has shown some signs of understanding the offense and presents the opportunity for the coaching staff to develop him, unlike Clausen. At the time, trading Brandon Marshall looked like the right move. He was vocal in the locker room and not always the greatest teammate, but he certainly was productive. Marshall made Alshon Jeffery look better on the field because he attracted more defensive attention, allowing Jeffery to get more looks from Cutler. So when the team traded him, how did they replace Marshall? They used their first-round draft pick on Kevin White out of West Virginia (we know his story) and signed Eddie Royal who has 8 receptions for 49 yards in two games. The team’s defense went through an extreme makeover which was led by the signing of Pernell McPhee who was supposed to be the premier pass rush for this defense. In the preseason it looked as if there were too many pass rushers on this team, but in two games, the defense hasn’t recorded a single sack. Only three teams: Bears, Raiders, and Colts (who play on Monday night) have yet to record a sack. Fansided Daily
FanSided Daily brings you the hottest content on your favorite teams. Sign up today. New defensive coordinator Vic Fangio was brought in from San Francisco where he had an outstanding defense and was supposed to help rebuild this unit but after two games, what has Fangio, McPhee, or anyone done to help improve? What’s even more eye-opening than the lack of sacks, is the overall lack of production as a whole. The defense has two tackles for loss through two games and not a single quarterback hit. Turnovers and a bad offense will lose games, but if you allow the opposing quarterbacks all day, the results will continue to be losses. In the same breath about a lack of pass rush, this team’s secondary has been awful, which brings to question the moves of letting Charles Tillman and Tim Jennings go on to other teams. Tillman may be easier to understand, he was coming off of a torn triceps injury for two consecutive seasons and is aging, but his presence on the field and in the locker room is certainly missed. More so than anything, Tillman could currently be teaching and mentoring the struggling Kyle Fuller. Upcoming Schedule 9/27at Seattle Seahawks
10/4vs. Oakland Raiders
10/11at Kansas City Chiefs
10/18at Detroit Lions
11/1vs. Minnesota Vikings
11/9at San Diego Chargers
The same goes for Tim Jennings, he was a veteran presence in the locker room who had struggled with his play during the preseason, but leaving Kyle Fuller all alone with Alan Ball on the opposite is simply not working. These two veterans are missed and the secondary has been quite the embarrassment through two games. Not every single move was bad this off-season, just the lack of production has called for the pointing out of many moves that were made. However, if you’re looking for a bright spot, look at Antrel Rolle. He’s got 10 tackles through two games, but it was what he did during Sunday’s game against Arizona, that not many are talking about that stood out. As the team went down big against the Cardinals, Rolle was seen on the sidelines huddling up with the entire defensive unit and giving them a rally speech. Antrel Rolle called a group huddle with the D and was just screaming at them. Need more leadership like that. — Chicago Bears Nation (@BearsFanpage) September 20, 2015 Even more impressive, the newcomer Rolle hasn’t stepped off the field since the regular season began. #Bears have 3 defensive players who have not missed a snap this year: Shea McClellin, Adrian Amos, Antrel Rolle — Patrick Finley (@patrickfinley) September 21, 2015 The offense seemed to be flowing with Cutler at quarterback, even without a fully healthy Alshon Jeffery, but now with Cutler out and the offense likely to rely on others, Bears fans have plenty to be worried about. As the season continues to progress, continue to ask yourself about the aforementioned moves, and which players were really worth getting rid of. Chicago Bears football is ugly through just two games and change was supposed to do this franchise good. Instead, this team is on the verge of yet again, being another laughing-stock around the league and preparing themselves to be at the top of the 2016 NFL Draft order.

| [Preview] Elk’s Run #3 by Robot Overlord The digital first release of Elk’s Run #3 arrives in stores on September 8th, but we have your first look at the Joshua Hale Fialkov and Noel Tuazon issue right now. Elk’s Run #3
Writer: Joshua Hale Fialkov
Artist: Noel Tuazon with Scott Keating DIGITAL RELEASE – COMIXOLOGY (9/8/15) The small town of Elk’s Ridge was founded as a closed haven, dreamt up by Vietnam veterans looking to create a utopia: a home without violence, chaos, or corruption. And in the beginning, it seemed like it might actually work. However, years later, the town has become a powder keg. When a desperate bid for freedom results in the accidental death of a child, the town must decide what terrible acts they are willing to commit in order to preserve their way of life. And the youth of the sleepy town—those who never chose to live that life—must forsake all they know in order to stand up for what is right. A vividly and viscerally illustrated tale of small town horror, Elk’s Run takes its place among the most chilling and affecting works of graphic fiction. The debut collaboration of Eisner, Harvey, and Emmy nominated writer Joshua Hale Fialkov and Harvey and Eisner nominated artist Noel Tuazon is back a decade later and even more relevant. Complete hardcover edition (Contains Chapters #1-8) available in stores: 11/11/15 via Oni Press | ENTERTAINMENT |

| SHARE You want real progress? You’ll need to do more than change street names By Rick Wagner Thursday, September 3, 2015 I see pressure growing to change street names in hopes of enhancing the desirability of some locations to attract business development. Mainly, that has evolved around changing North Avenue to University Boulevard. I have pointed out that 12th Street, running north and south, has a higher exposure to Colorado Mesa University and seems to me to be a better choice. This does not seem to be the prevailing thinking on the matter, however, and although I don’t disagree with the North Avenue as University Boulevard idea; I simply believe 12th St. to be a better choice and like all great ideas, I’m certain I will be proven correct through the lens of history. As a matter of fact I’m making a list of things that I expect to be proven right about in the future, like Nostradamus or the Amazing Kreskin. Mainly, I don’t think changing street names does a whole lot, unless the street name is off-putting or depressing such as, Destitution Avenue or the Boulevard of Broken Dreams. I can see where one might be reluctant to have that as your store address. While we are at it, we should change some street names to be associated with famous thoroughfares throughout the world, eye-catching to those looking for a prime location. For instance we could name a section of Sixth Street the “Champs-Elysees” after the famous Paris Boulevard leading to the Arc de Triomphe , which celebrates a great victory. I suggest a portion of Sixth Street because it passes by and almost terminates at the public safety complex which is clearly a monument to the city of Grand Junction’s triumph over the Taxpayers Bill Of Rights. In keeping with the influx of a more casual and new population to the downtown area and parks I would change the name of the area surrounding Main Street to “The Bowery” in celebration of the area’s growing similarity to New York’s storied past populated by colorful characters, like the Shirttail Gang and the Plug Uglies. In keeping with that motif and looking toward the future, I would like to name the alley behind my building off Main Street, Skid Row. While it may have a slightly negative connotation, it is a colorful image, where one might see all manner of things not found in other areas. For example, from Tuesday’s Dailey Sentinel society column, “The Blotter,” “M. E., was cited on suspicion of public indecency after witnesses said she was wearing no pants or underwear, … on a public sidewalk, having sex with a man near N. First Street, at 1:15 p.m. on Saturday.” Nothing attracts new business like free entertainment, although it may be difficult to schedule one’s opportunity to be in the area since many of these types of activities, which are becoming more commonplace, are nevertheless, mostly impulsive. I suppose I’m not opposed to giving areas of the town new names but I don’t think that’s going to be enough. North Avenue is suffering from a common growth affliction common to four-lane avenues that become heavily traveled with buildings often close to the road and little easily accessible offstreet parking. At one point in the streets history the traffic load translated to good advertising, since a lot of people would see your business. As traffic load, speeds and the attendant difficulties of driving increases, the tendency of drivers to notice business declines and the ability to get off the thoroughfare into a business safely, becomes much more problematic. Narrow entrances that were adequate 20 years ago now require a much more daring type of driver to slow down, almost to a stop and negotiate the turn. What has been found to be successful is the development of large sections of property, where adequate traffic routes can be established leading to a large parking lot with a large anchor store and surrounding satellites. Older existing areas are not desirable, as most chain businesses want their own structure that conforms of their business model. Tax advantages enterprise zones can be helpful in attracting large developers to reconfiguring portions of property so that they are now accessible from busy roads. Changing names is fine. Cleaning up the town’s appearance and changing the planning paradigm for desirable development will bring real progress.

Ford Europe boss Jim Farley shows why he’s a real car lover, new Fiat 500 is welcomed onto my family fleet, Land Rover’s Arthur Goddard is a true inspiration
MONDAY – It’s pretty special when one of the car industry’s top men turns out to be as keen a car nut as any of us.
The rigours of business tend to blunt the enthusiasm of the industry’s biggest men, but when Ford’s European president and CEO, Jim Farley, came to our London HQ, his credentials soon came to the fore.
Farley agreed to be interviewed in the less than salubrious setting of our photo archive and (as well as talking business) gave us lots of insights into his credentials as a car lover.
“I didn’t have money,” he explained, “so I took vacation jobs. One of them was in an engine remanufacturing plant, a long way from home. I bought a ’65 Mustang junker, lived in it while I re-did the engine, cashed in my return airfare to buy fuel and drove back to Michigan – with no licence or insurance. Not even a spare tyre. Didn’t tell my parents, of course. What I loved most about that car was washing it, and driving it slowly. I’ll never forget the feeling of freedom.”
TUESDAY – Loose the fireworks and ring the bells: the Steering Committee has a new car. After model deliberations that have stretched on one axis from Range Rover Evoque to BMW i3 , and on the other from Hyundai i10 to Volkswagen Up , we are about to swap a seven-year-old Fiat 500 diesel for… another Fiat 500, this time a 105bhp Twinair.
I was concerned at first about the choice of Fiat’s unique two-pot engine (although charming, a Twinair needs ‘understanding’) but as well as packing 23% more power, the latest version is smoother and its throttle response is more intuitive.
Although our new 500 is a run-out model (you save £3500), its suspension has been updated several times in seven years. And within 100 yards, you’re aware of a big reduction in nose weight. However, the best justification for buying another Fiat comes from the owner herself: “It makes me feel happy.”
WEDNESDAY – After a recent story about British Motor Heritage – the Oxfordshire company that makes new MG B and Mini bodyshells – a neighbour hastened to show me his superb, rebodied 1964 MG B, which he’s certain will now last another half century.
However, while writing about BMH, I realise I failed completely to credit the vital efforts of ‘Mr MG B’ David Bishop and his associate, Neil Morrick, who – as present BMH proprietor John Yea made clear when we met – was the main driver both in the company’s formation and its ‘repatriation’ from BMW. Without this pair, BMH could never have worked.
THURSDAY – To a pre-Goodwood ‘heritage’ dinner staged for hacks in a Surrey pub by Land Rover where we met 95-year-old Arthur Goddard, one of the marque’s all-time heroes. At 24, Goddard was plucked from the company’s stretched engineering team to be chief engineer on the original Landie, launched in 1948. Despite his years and a pretty decent dose of jetlag, Goddard dealt remarkably well with an hour-long interview, during which the audience was transfixed.
The US army Jeep, known to have influenced Land Rover, was useful for two key things above all, we learned. First, it showed that Land Rover should do whatever it could to avoid early-onset rust. Second, it became the body-strength standard to which Land Rover worked.
Given that the British 4×4’s outer panels were to be formed in relatively soft aluminium (supplies of steel were very restricted), Goddard and Co decided to make their box-section chassis as rigid as the total Jeep structure. It worked. Early Landies may have had glitches but no one ever complained about their chassis strength.

T he blades were sharpened, cutting boards laid out and the grills turned way up on a partly cloudy, but warm weather summer Saturday in Red Hook Brooklyn . Sailing into town once again was September’s annual welcome party for autumn known as Pig Island, where some two dozen chefs, restaurants and food purveyors would welcome the outdoor space surrounding Ikea and dole out sizable samples of succulent pork-fueled fare. 2015′s edition would once again be a highly anticipated affair, purposefully kept just a bit more intimate to ensure that lengthy lines and scarcity of personal space would not be an issue throughout the afternoon.
The festivities kicked off promptly at 11:30am, a time when most of us are more likely to be enjoying traditional slabs of soft and chewy bacon with our morning eggs rather than the likes of piping hot bratwurst, pig’s head terrine and crunchy chicharrones, all of which was being plated and served right at the day’s opening bell. With some live tunes welcoming us through the gates, we loaded up on pours of refreshing Sixpoint beers before starting a truly epic journey of gluttony, feasting on all parts of the pig.
If you’ve ever attended Pig Island before, you know that there are certain to be some unorthodox and definitively unique dishes being crafted by some of the talented chefs on hand- so if you’re looking for some run of the mill bacon or sausage, it’s best that you check out your local diner instead. Part of the fun of attending Pig Island in fact, is the thrill for the adventurous eater. Desserts were among some of the more buzzed about dishes early on- Butter’s “Pork Belly Smores” for instance were fire-torched and chocolate dipped while Hudson & Charles utilized smoked lard in baking their “Chocolate Chip Cookies.” And of course, Pig Guy NYC with his native home at Citi Field , was on hand slinging a sweet berry dipped bacon slab alongside a creamy “Agape Pulled Pork Sandwich,” kicked up with a spicy tzatziki sauce.
Waterfront views proved pivotal to an afternoon rife with sights to see- but kicking back with an ice cold beer and savory portions of Sotto 13′s “Pork-Butt Corn Dogs” or a “Smoked Pork Lettuce Wrap” courtesy of Route 66 Smokehouse while staring toward the next arriving water taxi somehow lent a calmness to the otherwise bustling event. Not for the faint of heart, live butchering demos would also take place as the day progressed, drawing throngs of attendees with their camera phones in hand to undoubtedly impress their many followers on social media. For our money, East Village craft beer bar Jimmy’s No. 43 served up our favorite dish of the day- a Filipino inspired “Whole Roasted Lechon” with pickled vegetables. The thick crackling skin was deliciously sticky, and complemented the tender morsels of white pork meat in delicious fashion. If the serving size wasn’t so generous, we surely would have returned for seconds- even though we were filling up quickly.
Massive portions from Hecho en Dumbo, Arrogant Swine and Neuman’s Kitchen ensured that there was no way to leave the Island without being completely satiated- though the tease of Revolving Dansk ‘s delectable bacon covered “ Copenhagen Street Dog” certainly made our self control waver at times. As Pig Island veterans, you’d think that we would remember to bring a blanket with us one of these years- as small groups of friends always appear completely content after carving out a space of their own on the comfortable stretch of lawn in the center of all the action. While we’ve certainly earmarked a blanket for next year, we did manage to bring with us the most important thing of all: a healthy appetite. And after wolfing down one of Fleisher’s underrated “Chichaquiles” and Chef Jesse Jones’ “Apple Cid er Braised Whole Hog,” it was time to get back on that ferry and head back to life in the big city, confident that we wouldn’t need to eat anything else for the remainder of the weekend. I suppose it takes a pig to truly enjoy one.

| Science news at the speed of thought Flickr/PRODavid Hodgson, CC BY 2.0 If you’re sitting down, don’t sit still SOURCE September 23, 2015 Facebook Twitter Google+ Email RSS New research suggests that the movements involved in fidgeting may counteract the adverse health impacts of sitting for long periods. In a study published today in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, a team of researchers, co-led by the University of Leeds and UCL, report that an increased risk of mortality from sitting for long periods was only found in those who consider themselves very occasional fidgeters. They found no increased risk of mortality from longer sitting times, compared to more active women, in those who considered themselves as moderately or very fidgety. The study examined data from the University of Leeds’ UK Women’s Cohort Study, which is one of the largest cohort studies of diet and health of women in the UK. Study co-lead author Professor Janet Cade, from the School of Food Science and Nutrition at the University of Leeds said: “While further research is needed, the findings raise questions about whether the negative associations with fidgeting, such as rudeness or lack of concentration, should persist if such simple movements are beneficial for our health.” Even among adults who meet recommended physical activity levels and who sleep for eight hours per night, it is possible to spend the vast majority of the day (up to 15 hours) sitting down. The study builds on growing evidence suggesting that a sedentary lifestyle is bad for your health, even if you are physically active outside work. Breaks in sitting time have previously been shown to improve markers of good health, such as body mass index and your body’s glucose and insulin responses. But until now, no study has ever examined whether fidgeting might modify an association between sitting time and death rates. The University of Leeds’ UK Women’s Cohort Study gathered information on a wide range of eating patterns of more than 35,000 women aged 35 to 69 who are living in the UK. The new study analyses data from a follow-up survey sent to the same women, which included questions on health behaviours, chronic disease, physical activity levels and fidgeting. More than 14,000 responses were received. Study co-lead author Dr Gareth Hagger-Johnson from UCL, who conducted the data analysis, said: “Our results support the suggestion that it's best to avoid sitting still for long periods of time, and even fidgeting may offer enough of a break to make a difference.” How the brain encodes time and place Can your sense of smell predict when you'll die?

| Gov. Jerry Brown, as seen in 2010. (credit: Steve Rhodes )
California’s governor has provided presidential hopeful Dr. Ben Carson with “overwhelming evidence” of climate change, something that the Republican candidate claimed does not exist.
Last week, Carson appeared in San Francisco as part of his campaigning schedule. At an event, he addressed why the "climate change debate" remains, in his view, "irrelevant." In a tweet published later in the week , Gov. Jerry Brown (D) posted a picture of this letter sent to the retired neurosurgeon.
Dear Dr. Carson,
I hope you've enjoyed your visit to the Golden State. It's come to my attention that while you were here you said the following regarding climate science:
"I know there are a lot of people who say 'overwhelming science,' but then when you ask them to show the overwhelming evidence, they never show it…There is no overwhelming science that the things that are going on are man-caused and not naturally caused. Gimmie a break."
Please find enclosed a flash drive with the complete United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) "Synthesis Report," the concluding installment of the Fifth Assessment Report, published earlier this year. This report assessed over 30,000 scientific papers and was written by more than 800 scientists, representing 80 countries around the world, who definitively concluded that: "…human influence on the climate system is clear and growing, with impacts observed across all continents and oceans."
This is just one of the thousands of reports authored by the world's top scientists on the subject, including a study published just last month by Columbia University, University of Idaho and NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies scientists that found climate change has intensified California's drought. These aren't just words. The consequences are real.
Please use your considerable intelligence to review this material. Climate change is much bigger than partisan politics.
Sincerely,
Jerry Brown
The Carson campaign did not immediately respond to Ars’ request for comment. As of publishing, the Carson campaign did not appear to have responded to Gov. Brown, either.

| Saturday of the Twenty-fourth week in Ordinary Time
19 September 2015
"Some seed fell on good soil, and when it grew,
it produced fruit a hundredfold."
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 8:4-15.
When a large crowd gathered, with people from one town after another journeying to Jesus, he spoke in a parable.
A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path and was trampled, and the birds of the sky ate it up.
Some seed fell on rocky ground, and when it grew, it withered for lack of moisture.
Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
And some seed fell on good soil, and when it grew, it produced fruit a hundredfold." After saying this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear."
Then his disciples asked him what the meaning of this parable might be.
He answered, "Knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been granted to you; but to the rest, they are made known through parables so that 'they may look but not see, and hear but not understand.'
This is the meaning of the parable. The seed is the word of God.
Those on the path are the ones who have heard, but the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts that they may not believe and be saved.
Those on rocky ground are the ones who, when they hear, receive the word with joy, but they have no root; they believe only for a time and fall away in time of trial.
As for the seed that fell among thorns, they are the ones who have heard, but as they go along, they are choked by the anxieties and riches and pleasures of life, and they fail to produce mature fruit.
But as for the seed that fell on rich soil, they are the ones who, when they have heard the word, embrace it with a generous and good heart, and bear fruit through perseverance.

Commentary of the day
Saint Gregory the Great (c.540-604)
[caption id="attachment_22967" align="aligncenter" width="300"] Jerome and Gregory.[/caption]
Saint Gregory the Great (c.540-604), Pope, Doctor of the Church
Homilies on the Gospel, 1,15
Bearing fruit through perseverance
Be watchful so that the word you have received may resonate in the depth of your heart and dwell there. Take care that the seed not fall upon the path for fear that the evil spirit might come and take the word away from your memory. Take care that the rocky soil does not receive the seed and produce good actions that are lacking the roots of perseverance. For many rejoice when they hear the word and they prepare to undertake good works. But when trials have hardly begun to assail them they give up what they had undertaken. Thus, the rocky soil lacked water, so much so that the wheat germ could not bear the fruit of perseverance.
But the good earth gives fruit through patience. Let us understand by this that our good works can be of value, if we patiently bear the trouble caused by our neighbor. Moreover, the more we advance towards perfection, the more we have to endure trials. Once our soul has abandoned the love of the present world, the hostility of this world increases. That is why we see many toiling under a heavy burden (Mt 11:28) although their works are good… But according to the word of the Lord, “they bear fruit through their constancy” by bearing these trials humbly, so much so that after having toiled, they will be invited to enter into the peace of heaven.

Saint of the day
St. Januarius, Bishop and Martyr († 305)
ST. JANUARIUS
Bishop and Martyr
(† 305)
Many centuries ago, St. Januarius died for the faith in the persecution of Diocletian, and to this day God confirms the faith of his Church, and works a continual miracle, through the blood which Januarius shed for Him.
The Saint was Bishop of Beneventum, and on one occasion he travelled to Misenum in order to visit a deacon named Sosius. During this visit Januarius saw the head of Sosius, who was singing the gospel in the church, girt with flames, and took this for a sign that ere long Sosius would wear the crown of martyrdom. So it proved. Shortly after Sosius was arrested, and thrown into prison. There St. Januarius visited and encouraged him, till the bishop also was arrested in turn. Soon the number of the confessors was swollen by some of the neighboring clergy. They were exposed to the wild beasts in the amphitheatre. The beasts, however, did them no harm; and at last the Governor of Campania ordered the Saints to be beheaded.
Little did the heathen governor think that he was the instrument in God's hand of ushering in the long succession of miracles which attest the faith of Januarius. The relics of St. Januarius rest in the cathedral of Naples, and it is there that the liquefaction of his blood occurs. The blood is congealed in two glass vials, but when it is brought near the martyr's head it melts and flows like the blood of a living man.
Lives of the Saints, by Alban Butler, Benziger Bros. ed. [1894]

| Scientists have deciphered a genetic formula that instructs proteins to possibly self-assemble or dismantle in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in temperature, salinity or acidity. The find provides a new height for drug smoothness systems and an wholly conflicting perspective of mobile functions.
An artistic illustration of a genetic codes that control a convention and disassembling of protein structures. Image credit: Felipe Garcia Quiroz and Adriana Villa Moreno.
The allege was done by researchers during Duke University and is a initial time that scientists have reported a ability to emanate biological structures that are straightforwardly automatic to arrange and disassemble. With this believe in hand, researchers have non-stop a new universe for engineer proteins and investigations into nanotechnology, biotechnology and medical treatments.
The investigate appears in Nature Materials.
“The really elementary pattern manners that we have detected yield a absolute engineering apparatus for many biomedical and biotechnology applications,” pronounced Ashutosh Chilkoti, chair of a Department of Biomedical Engineering during Duke. “We can now, with a crack of a switch and a feverishness jump, make a outrageous operation of biological molecules that possibly arrange or disassemble.”
The investigate investigated several triggers that can means protein structures to arrange or mangle apart, though it essentially focused on heat. Protein-based structures that self-assemble when exhilarated and sojourn fast inside of a bloodstream have prolonged been used in a accumulation of applications. The conflicting behavior, however, has prolonged eluded researchers, generally outward of a delicately tranquil sourroundings of a chemistry lab.
“Nobody has been means to make these kinds of materials with a grade of complexity that we have now demonstrated,” pronounced Felipe Garcia Quiroz, a former connoisseur tyro in Chilkoti’s laboratory and initial author of a new study.
Chilkoti’s lab has designed self-assembling proteins for drug smoothness systems for several years. Simply by adding heat, these new make-up materials put themselves together and assistance control where and when drugs are expelled inside a physique by non-temperature-related mechanisms such as changes in astringency levels.
With a new discovery, however, drugs could be encapsulated in protein cages that amass inside of a growth and disintegrate once heated. Not usually would this yield a some-more accurate approach of delivering drugs, though a cages themselves could be used therapeutically.
“These wrapping systems have always been inert, though now we can make these materials from bioactive components,” pronounced Quiroz. “Once a cages get there and broach their cargo, they could mangle down into additional healing agents. We can now pattern dual things into one.”
The investigate also provides new insights into a bland functions of cells. Because a laboratory identified a genetic sequences that encode this behavior, they were means to indicate out a prolonged list of tellurian proteins that expected vaunt it.
“This paper shows a implausible brilliance of peptide sequences that already have this really elementary switch,” pronounced Chilkoti.
Why they arrange and what duty it serves, however, stays an open question.
“These commentary will be sparkling to both a materials scholarship and a biochemistry communities,” pronounced Quiroz. “They’ll be means to pull a boundary of what we know about these kinds of materials and afterwards go behind to try how biology is already creation use of them.”

| An hour after Tom Brady joined WEEI for an interview with Dennis & Callahan, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell called in to ESPN's Mike and Mike, making his first public comments since Brady's four-game suspension was vacated by a federal judge. Goodell was asked if he's considering lessening his role in the discipline process. He is, effectively, judge and jury right now. In the Brady case, Goodell authorized the punishment and then served as the arbitrator in the review of the punishment. And in the Brady case, Goodell fell flat on his face in at least one of those roles. "Yes, I am very open to changing my role in that," Goodell said. "It's become extremely time consuming, and I think I have to be focused on other issues. And that's what I've discussed with the owners over the last couple of years. We believe that a discipline officer, some type of panel, that can make at least the initial decision, and then a designee of mine on some type of appeal would be a better system. But we also have some resistance to third-party arbitration. We believe that the standards of the NFL are important to uphold. We believe that you don't delegate that responsibility or those standards. We think that somebody with a deep knowledge of the game and our policies and our rules are important when it relates to competitive violations. So there's got to be a system in there somewhere, and I think that's the challenge for all of us to do is to come up with to do that." Goodell acknowledged that there has been communication with the NFLPA to make changes to the player discipline policy. "I spoke to DeMaurice (Smith) last week before the decision, saying, 'Regardless of what the decision is, we need to sit down and figure out how we get to a better position on our discipline procedures -- whether it's personal conduct policy or integrity of the game policy. Those things have to be determined by us in collective bargaining. They have been effectively done in the past and they should be going forward." | POLITICS |

| Lady Killer by Joëlle Jones
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Paperback, 138 pages
Published September 15th 2015 by Dark Horse Books

I wanted to like this, but, unfortunately, it fell flat for me. The art is great and a lot of fun with the contrast between the 1950s housewife advertising style and the blood and violence. However, the story was very basic, if not boring. There was a chance for this to have been a lot more fun than it was as Josie turned out to be a two-dimensional character without any emotion. | ENTERTAINMENT |

Download Here (This offer may expire soon) Long Term Trend The long term trend of Willdan Group is DOWN indicating that WLDN has experienced a DOWN trend for at least the past 180 trading days. Long term trends are key to understanding the starting point to the path of least resistance of a stocks price trend. The expected future trend bias is always strongest with the current trend. Short Term Trend The short term trend of Willdan Group is UP, WLDN has been undergoing a short term UP UP over the past 7-10 days. Signal The current signal for Willdan Group is BUY indicating that the stock could be Advancing in its trend. The current price trend is not Extreme. Stocks in extreme levels of price trend should be allowed to move out of the extreme range before a buy or sell decision should be made. As is the case for most trending momentum style stocks, much of the " price action is not often known until well into the price trend. But earnings growth and management efficiency are key components to a foundation to a sustainable uptrend. We will focus on fundamental indications that can build a case for reasons why the stock should continue its current trend. Strength Rank Rank is the rank of the stock vs. its peers. For example a Rank of 98 means the stock is out performing 98% of its peers over a 12 month period. A rank of 2 means the stock is outperforming 2% of its peers, in other words, 98% of its peers are out performing it. 98 is good, 2 is not so good. The current quarter is 40% of the weighting, so current performance is more significant to the rank. The current rank for Willdan Group is 64, this means that WLDN is out performing 64% of its peers. Stocks that have a rank of 80 or better, with support of all other analyses shown here, tend to advance the trend. The 90 day trend of Rank ROE - Return on equity is a measure of financial efficiency, gauging how much profit a company is able to generate from the company financial net worth (that is, assets minus liabilities). Look for an annual return on equity of at least 20%. That is the level that set apart the winning stocks from the ordinary. That doesn always mean that a company with smaller ROE is a poor investment. Some big winners have of course been shy of 20% return on equity when they started their major up trends. When ROE is strong, it gives investors an indication that the company is better poised to continue a solid earnings performance. A high ROE is only part of the fundamentals a solid company should have. Superb earnings and sales growth, superior profit margins and big operating cash flow are other key elements investors must seek. The Current ROE for Willdan Group is 24.52%, indicating WLDN is currently functioning with High financial efficiency. The 12 month chart trend of ROE Annual EPS Growth - Companies with annual earnings growth of more than 20% are more likely to become leaders in up trending markets. While 20% Annual EPS growth is the minimum you should look for, dont be afraid to seek even better results. Studies have shown that the greatest winners in the past 30 years had an average 30% annual EPS growth rate when they started their strong up trends. You also can look for three straight years of rising EPS growth, with an average of at least 25%. These performance results often imply that a company is growing fast even if the general economy is slowing down or even in recession. The current Annual EPS Growth for Willdan Group is 0.98% which is less than the 30% average found is strong trending, fundamentally sound companies. The 12 month chart trend of Annual EPS Growth Quarterly EPS Growth - Outstanding earnings growth in the most recent quarters can be the single most important trait that identifies winners before they start their major price advances. Generally, the bigger the earnings growth, the better. Specifically, look for a companys earnings per share up at least 25-30% vs. the year-ago level in the most recent quarter or two. Gains of 50%, 100% or more are typical of strong market leaders even before they make their huge price moves. Theres really nothing magic about this connection. Successful companies generate the strongest profit gains, regardless of the economic cycle. Even during periods when corporate profits are weak in general, you still find standouts that achieve massive earnings growth. The current Quarterly EPS Growth for Willdan Group is 11.11% which is less than the 25% average found is strong trending stocks even during or before huge price moves. The 12 month chart trend of Quarterly EPS Growth Quarterly Sales growth - A companys annual and quarterly rate of increase in revenues (sales). A measure of growth and success as long as it is accompanied by an equally strong rate of increase in earnings per share. You want to see both in a potential investment. A companys quarterly EPS gain should be supported by an increase in revenue (sales) of at least 25% or at least by an acceleration in sales growth in the past few quarters. You also should watch out for earnings growth that comes amid falling sales. Companies with declining revenue often boost their EPS results through layoffs or other cost cuts, especially in an uncertain economic environment. But this isnt a sustainable approach, and its definitely not as desirable as profit gains that come from higher revenue. Recent quarterly sales results are more critical when it comes to researching stocks. The current Quarterly Sales Growth for Willdan Group is 10.44% which is less than the 25% average found is strong trending stocks. The 12 month chart trend of Quarterly Sales Growth Dividend Yield Dividend yield is the annual dividend income per share received from a company divided by its current share price. Normally investors would like to see a dividend yield between 2% and 20% for a dividend paying company. The dividend yield is an important factor to consider when investing in dividend paying stocks. Dividend yield is a financial ratio that reflects the % of profits a company makes of the dividend payments over the course of a year. For example if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is trading at $50 a share, it would have a dividend yield of 4%. The current Dividend Yield for Willdan Group is 0.00.

| On The Wings of Love September 15 2015
On the Wings of Love is a 2015 Philippine romantic comedy television series directed by Antoinette Jadaone and Jojo Saguin, starring James Reid and Nadine Lustre in their first primetime television series introducing Reid's newest first leading lady after Lustre, Ysabel Ortega. The series premiered on ABS-CBN and worldwide on The Filipino Channel on August 10, 2015, replacing Bridges of Love.
The rom-com centers around the two different people — Leah, a simple girl with an American dream; and Clark, a boy living his American life.
On the Wings of Love tells the story of Clark Medina, a stubborn, heartbroken, Filipino American boy; and Leah Olivar, a happy-go-lucky Filipina with an American dream, and how their love grew through time, despite bad first impressions toward each other.
Leah grew up in a very poor but happy family. Her mother, Rona went to America to follow her own American dream for her family; a better future. Life is initially well for the Olivars, until a tragedy enters their lives that will prompt Leah to follow in her mother's footsteps, by way of a choir competition in San Francisco, California. After the contest, Leah will extend her stay in San Francisco to visit her mother's grave and find a way to legally work in the United States to earn money for her ill father, Sol. To her surprise, Leah will not find her mother's remains. And as her visa expires, finding a job that will allow her to stay in the US will also be difficult.
With the urging of Jack, the mother of Leah's ex-boyfriend, Jiggs, and out of desperation, Leah will agree into a fixed marriage to get her work permit. But with Leah's limited resources, it will be hard for Jack to find her a partner. The only person that will agree to the small amount that Leah is willing to pay and is suitable for the situation is Jack's nephew, Clark.
Clark has been in San Francisco for the past eleven years, and his life has been full of heartbreaks. He went to the US with his mother Ofelia to be introduced to his American father, but he rejected them. Tragedy doesn't end there for Clark; soon after, his mother died and Clark was placed into foster homes where he got abused. Because of his love for his siblings in the Philippines, that depends on him, Clark persevered and survived in the US. These misfortunes and responsibilities in life deprived Clark of romantic love.
Leah and Clark initially had bad first impressions of each other, but with Jack's intervention, Leah and Clark agreed to get married. As they spend time as a fake couple, Leah and Clark must try to learn about each other's past, quirks, and habits to pass the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) interview. They quickly realize that they can barely tolerate each other, but as time passes, Leah and Clark develop a certain fondness for each other. They also realize that both have the same goals in life, and that is making a better life for their family. They also begin to sympathize with each other, as Leah and Clark reveal their deepest secrets. Soon after, the fake marriage between Leah and Clark will have real feelings of love.

| We’re bullish on Europe, and that strikes some folks in the U.S. as a bit strange. It’s not that Europe is all we know — we’re an investor in early venture stage funds (an “LP”) in the US, Europe and Israel. Our portfolio skews towards the U.S.; and within the U.S., to the Bay Area. But over the last 18 months or so, we’ve been crossing and re-crossing the Atlantic with increasing regularity, and in that time frame European venture funds constitute more than a third of the funds to which we have committed.
Specifically, in the last 18 months we have invested in 83North, Mosaic and Point Nine — and we are working on three additional funds yet to be announced. Given how early in their investing cycles these new funds are, as well as other funds we have invested in previously, it is too soon to be making any calls. To answer the question, then, as to what makes Europe so compelling, we have to take a more macro perspective.
The Burgeoning European Startup Ecosystem
Silicon Valley is a mature startup ecosystem — some 50+ years old. Europe, on the other hand, is younger, and has recently passed a few key inflection points. In our opinion, the European ecosystem is currently entering v 3.0, or maybe v 2.5 if you want to be more conservative, given the recent stock market rollercoaster and Grexit situation. In either case, it is ripening.
Some history to put this in perspective: v 1.0 started in the 2000s when things were getting off the ground. Then, v 2.0 in about 2008, whose poster child surely has to be Rocket Internet. Following their success, a wave of accelerators and incubators rolled out across Europe; at the same time, the number of startups spiked.
The net effect was a crash course in what it means to be part of a rapidly growing startup ecosystem. And with each company, successful or otherwise, the European startup ecosystem deepened and broadened, and entrepreneurship became an increasingly accepted career path, along with producing more experienced entrepreneurs, engineers, managers, marketers, investors, consumers and service providers.
There are now some 40 European unicorns*, 42 billion-dollar exits over the last 5 years and some 641 companies have raised more than $6 billion in H1 2015 alone. This is up from 738 deals and $5.1 billion for all of 2011. Like in the U.S., Europe now boasts multiple hot spots for innovation, with London, Berlin and Stockholm leading the pack. In these cities you find a concentration of talent, dollars and lighthouse venture-backed companies.
We believe European entrepreneurs today are more experienced, think bigger, have global ambitions and are attracting capital at home and abroad. Leading U.S. funds (Sequoia, Union Square, Andreessen Horowitz and NEA, to name only a few) are investing in European companies, lest they miss out on all the fun.
Innovation Knows No Boundaries
We believe great ideas can — and do — start anywhere. Today’s entrepreneurial ecosystem is increasingly porous, with companies often starting in one European country, then moving to London, Berlin or the U.S. as they grow, attracting capital and teams.
Some European companies will come to the U.S. to scale and be closer to their U.S. customers. Others will stay in Europe, taking advantage of the ever-increasing local talent pools, lower cost of living and the flattening of the world. We also see U.S. tech companies moving to Europe in their own pursuit of European customers — both private tech companies and massive public ones like Google, Facebook, Cisco, eBay, etc.
There are three European ecosystems we watch, in particular, and have focused our fund investment activity: the U.K. (London), Germany (Berlin) and the Nordics (Stockholm). We track them because of their high levels of new company formation, value creation and exits. In 2014, the U.K. and Germany attracted the highest number of deals throughout Europe, 225 deals and 154 respectively, accounting for 44 percent of all European VC-backed tech deals. When you look at the Nordic region as a whole, you get some 113 deals.
As far as company valuation, the U.K., Sweden and Germany (in that order) are currently home to the most-billion dollar+ valued companies. Lastly, on the exit side of the equation, the U.K. has garnered the lion’s share of billion-dollar exits. Of the 42 companies achieving billion-dollar exits over the last five years, five were from the U.K., the highest number from any one region. Ireland and Germany were tied for second place, with four companies with more than a billion-dollar exit value each.
Competition. U.S. venture is a competitive sport, with many well-established brands battling to invest in the best companies, as well as an ever-increasing host of new emerging managers. Q1 2015 alone saw an additional 36 new U.S. funds come to market, on top of 87 new funds in 2014. While Europe is also seeing a rise in the number of new venture funds coming to market, there are significantly fewer; seven in Q1 2015 and 19 in 2014.
The Power Of The Global Observatory. By investing in multiple geographies, an LP has a front row seat simultaneously to numerous high-tech markets. Sapphire Venture invests in the U.S., Europe and Israel. If we pay attention, we can see patterns emerging, trends in company formation, customer traction, valuations and the corresponding responses by venture capitalists. With this perspective, we believe we can be a more informed investor, and that much more valuable as advisors to our GPs as they compete on an ever-globalizing stage.
The Future Does Not In Fact Always Look Like The Past. Multiple top venture funds today were just starting 10 years ago, some even more recently than that. Sapphire Ventures believes “emerging managers” play a pivotal role in refreshing the venture community. Not surprisingly, we also believe European venture firms are evolving, as well — with many new firms launching in the last three years alone — 83North, Connect, Felix Capital, Hoxton, Lakestar, Mosaic, Point Nine Capital and White Star … and the list goes on, complementing the existing established players.
There is a notable generational shift going on within European venture funds to a more founder-friendly, value-add perspective similar to their U.S. counterparts. The best entrepreneurs have their choice of investors, and will choose those that have cross-border networks, company building know-how and those that can act quickly.

| You wouldn't know if from the score, but a lot happened in the Cubs' 1-0 win against the Royals on Monday, which ended when Chris Denorfia hit a pinch-hit, walkoff home run in the 11th inning. In fact, it was the first pinch-hit, walkoff home run in an extra-innings game that ended 1-0 in MLB history. That's a mouthful, but the excitement didn't stop there in a game that produced just one run. Royals starting pitcher Yordano Ventura carried a perfect game into the sixth inning until Jorge Soler hit a leadoff single to center field. Ventura ended up tossing seven scoreless innings with six strikeouts. Ventura's counterpart, Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks, pitched six scoreless innings with nine strikeouts, and both bullpens held up to send the game into extra innings deadlocked at zero. Neither team was able to get anything going in the 10th inning, but Denorfia ended the drama with one swing in the bottom of the 11th. Cubs rookie Kris Bryant also became the first player of the season to field four different positions defensively in the same game. He started at first base, moved to center field, then to left field, and finally finished the game at his natural position — third base. The win moved the Cubs 3 1/2 games back of the Pirates for the top wild-card spot with just six games to play. Star Performers: AL: George Springer, Evan Gattis and Chris Carter all hit solo home runs to lead the Astros to a 3-2 win over the Mariners. Houston moved just 1 1/2 games behind the Rangers in the AL West with the win. David Murphy hit a pinch-hit, walkoff single with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth inning to help the Angels beat the Athletics 5-4. The win was Los Angeles' sixth straight and moved them just a half-game behind the Astros for the final wild-card spot and two games behind the Rangers for the AL West crown. NL: Cardinals outfielder Jon Jay hit an RBI single, then Mark Reynolds hit a pinch-hit, two-run home run in the ninth inning to give St. Louis a 3-0 win against the Pirates. Max Scherzer took a no-hitter into the eighth inning against the Reds, but lost it when Tucker Barnhart singled with one out. Scherzer lasted eight innings and allowed just one run on two hits. He also recorded 10 strikeouts in a 5-1 win. Plays of the Day: Chris Denorfia's walkoff against the Royals: Manny Machado can do things normal people can't: Kevin Pillar makes his nightly great catch: Carlos Correa makes improbable plays look routine: A Look Ahead: (All times Eastern) Cardinals (99-58) at Pirates (95-62), 7:05 p.m.: Lance Lynn led the Cardinals to a 3-0 win against Pittsburgh on Monday to take a four-game lead in the NL Central with just six games left in the regular season. It won't get any easier for the Pirates in this one, as St. Louis will send Michael Wacha (17-6, 3.15 ERA) to the mound. Dodgers (87-69) at Giants (82-74), 10:15 p.m.: The Dodgers squandered another chance to clinch the NL West when Alejandro De Aza gave the Giants a 3-2 win with a walkoff sac-fly in the 12th inning Monday. Los Angeles' magic number remains at two, and it will get another opportunity to clinch Tuesday. Did we mention it's Clayton Kershaw (15-7 2.25 ERA) vs. Madison Bumgarner (18-8, 2.88 ERA)? It should be another interesting game. | SPORTS |

| Flagstaff, Sunday morning, we walked over to the weekend arts festival. On the way we encountered this:
The attorney’s name is FLICK, you sick people.
After buying nothing of note 1 , we headed out of town, stopping first at the Safeway to pick up snacks, water, etc., and also:
IN THE SAFEWAY, YOU GUYS! Is this a great state or what? Outside of their tendency to elect rightwing nutjobs to office, that is.
We drove up to Tusayan, the little community right outside the Grand Canyon and which is where those of us without foresight or money stay when we come to the Canyon. Seriously, you have to make reservations in the park years in advance. 2
We checked in to the Red Feather Lodge just as one of those amazing storms rolled in: huge raindrops, ferocious lightning, and hail. We hunkered down and napped till the storm passed.
Finally we headed out. Our companions have never been to the Canyon, and so we drove to the first overlook and let the awesomeness wash over them.
The Canyon did not disappoint.
— click for full view —
They were awestruck with the mist and low clouds and patches of blue through which the setting sun began to shine. And always, that amazing, amazing view. We kept moving, stopping at each overlook.
However, that storm we thought had passed had not, and so by the time we got to Grandview, it was freezing and lightning again, so we headed back in.
By the way, have you ever seen hail drifts? Yes, the storm that pelted the hotel with a little hail had managed to do a main dump somewhere near Grandview, and the ground was covered with white pellets of ice. I kind of wish I had been there to see it.
Nice meal at the Best Western—shut up, I am not lying: the Coronado Room is probably the nicest restaurant in the area—and then willingly to bed.
Monday. It’s Labor Day, but the area is oddly not packed. We hypothesize that people went home yesterday because in the unenlightened parts of the country, they still wait to start school until after Labor Day, so either families don’t travel this weekend or they go home early.
Fine with us. Lots of people, still.
Our plan was to drive all the way out to Desert View and the Watch Tower, then stop at All The Overlooks on the way back.
And that’s what we’ve done. Endless views, endless grandeur.
I will say now that after the third or so overlook, you get out of the car thinking, “Jeebus, this one is only a couple hundred yards down the road, how different or exciting can this…” And then you see the Canyon again and it’s still amazing, it’s still , always , endlessly fascinating and beautiful and you cannot take your eyes off of it.
— click for full image —
Much wildlife, such canyon:
Spectacular elkage.
Really, the place was lousy with them, and mule deer.
Sunset and dinner at El Tovar Lodge.
That’s a hurried tour of today. Trust me, I have a lot more glorious photos of the Canyon, but I’ll probably wait till I get home where I can edit and tweak and then post.
For now, I have to get to bed so that I can get up at 5:oo to go take a plane ride, an ATV excursion, a boat trip, and a 3-hour ride in a van to get back to where we started. Oi.
—————
1 As usual, we bemoaned the fact that we always encounter the most amazing farmer’s markets when we are hundreds of miles away from our kitchens.
2 No joke—I just asked at the front desk of El Tovar and was handed a slip of paper with prices and the instructions that they started taking reservations thirteen months out. | CULTURE & ARTS |

| UK data center developer picks WiredRE for US market representation By Gulli Arnason in Media and Technology · September 21, 2015 Kao Data said it has appointed Wired Real Estate Group Inc. to elevate the US presence of its state-of-the-art data center at Kao Park on the outskirts of London in the United Kingdom. Kao Park is strategically located along the London-Cambridge-Stanstead corridor, an emerging innovation belt for the science and technology industry, and has historically been a center for discovery. Fiber optic cable was invented on the site by the campus´ namesake Charles Kao, who later received the 2009 Nobel Prize for Physics, and George Hockham in 1966. Building on its tradition of innovation and new technology, Kao Park will be the first part of a new UK Enterprise Zone to be delivered and will be the only campus near London to provide occupiers with Grade A office accommodation (215,000 sq ft) and a state-of-the-art data center. The data center at Kao Park will be one of the largest campus data centers in the UK when it launches in 2016. The development will see the creation of the data center on the former 35-acre Nortel Telecommunications site with world-class data scale and capacity for international companies of all sizes. The data capability of the campus is a significant attraction for businesses moving to the area. Kao Park is the first part of the Harlow Enterprise Zone, one of 24 Enterprise Zone across England created by Government to stimulate business growth through offering tax and planning incentives as well as infrastructure development. WiredRE is the nation´s leading independent cloud, colocation, and data center advisor. The firm uses its proprietary research to advise enterprises on strategy, planning, brokerage and finance. 0saves Save If you enjoyed this post, please consider leaving a comment or subscribing to the RSS feed to have future articles delivered to your feed reader. | SCIENCE & TECH |

| Doris Stokes, who died in 1987, was once Britain’s most famous psychic, filling the London Palladium for her shows and appearing regularly on television. When the hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper was at its height in 1979, the Sunday People asked Stokes to see if she could identify the killer and on 1 July gave over its front page to her findings, with an artist’s impression of the man she felt was responsible. Related: Do the police use psychics to help them? The person the police should be looking for, she suggested, was called Johnny or Ronnie, his surname began with an M, he came from Wearside or Tyneside and he was clean-shaven with a slight bald spot. When the bearded Peter Sutcliffe was arrested and eventually confessed in 1981 to 13 killings, Stokes’s prediction was already long forgotten. Now the suggestion, in a consultation document produced by the College of Policing, that psychics could play a part in investigations has raised the issue once again. “High-profile missing person investigations nearly always attract the interest of psychics and others, such as witches and clairvoyants, stating that they possess extrasensory perception,” states the draft, cautioning that this should not distract attention from the overall investigation. “The person’s methods should be asked for, including the circumstances in which they received the information and any accredited successes.” Those accredited successes are hard to find. Stokes was far from the only clairvoyant offering advice to the West Yorkshire police in their bungled inquiry. A Dutch clairvoyant informed them that the killer was probably a washing-machine mechanic aged 27 and living in Aberdeen, which obviously didn’t match Sutcliffe’s profile either. It is understandable how family members may be open to stories from psychics as to what has happened to their loved ones As the College of Policing draft document notes, high-profile murders or disappearances almost always attract information from people, many of them sincere, who claim to have received their information from the other side. The Madeleine McCann case has received more than its fair share of such advice. Initially, after the toddler was abducted in 2007, the police in Portugal received many tip-offs from mediums, collecting two dossiers full of them. There was a certain logic to logging the “sightings”, as detectives felt that the real abductor could possibly have used it as a method of clandestinely conveying information to them. The McCann family have sadly become used to such tales. More recently, a psychic in Burnley announced that Madeleine was alive and well and studying at a college in Minnesota. It is perfectly understandable how distressed family members may be open to stories from psychics as to what has happened to their loved ones or who has been responsible for their deaths. The Missing People charity, which does such sterling work on behalf of people trying to trace relatives or friends, acknowledges as much in its statement about the College of Policing study. “As a non-judgmental organisation, we respect the fact that some families of missing people will want to try every avenue in order to find a loved one,” said a spokesperson, while adding that their research, based on interviews with the families of the missing, indicated “no significant findings through psychics or mediums”. Related: Psychological profiling 'worse than useless' Equally, it is understandable that the police, faced with a blank wall in their investigation, may be open to an intervention from outside their normal lines of inquiry. When the hunt was on for the killer of Rachel Nickell on Wimbledon Common in 1992, detectives took advice from a psychological profiler, went up a blind alley and ended up wrongly accusing Colin Stagg with the crime. The real killer, Robert Napper, finally pleaded guilty in 2008. The Nickell case coincided with the television series, Cracker, about a fictional psychological profiler played by Robbie Coltrane. Stand by for a new series in which a psychic magically solves crimes. In the meantime, the old ABC of detection – “assume nothing, believe nobody, challenge everything” – remains the surest way of ascertaining the truth. And a good detective’s hunch is 100 times more likely to solve a case than a well-meaning psychic’s visitation. | OTHERS |

| [Below is my transcript of my video about natural treatment for toothaches, along with supplemental information on the topic.]
Today, let’s talk about home remedies for toothache relief. I f you’ve ever had a toothache or you have a young child or a teething baby that has a toothache, you know that it can be painful, either a nagging pain or can really just make you miserable.
Let’s go over my top three natural remedies for curing toothaches fast.
Top 3 Natural Treatments for Toothaches 1. Clove Essential Oil
The first thing you need to use are essential oils . The best essential oil for toothaches according to the medical literature is benefit-rich clove oil . Although it has been suspected for centuries to treat inflammatory conditions, the Journal of Immunotoxicology just recently published the first-ever study proving that the eugenol in clove oil is indeed a powerful anti-inflammatory . In fact, clove actually ranks as the highest antioxidant herb in the entire world today.
Clove is widely accepted as a reliable solution for dry socket and for relieving the pain and discomfort associated with various dental disorders. The Journal of Dentistry , for instance, published a study in 2006 proving that clove essential oil had the same numbing effect as benzocaine , a topical agent commonly used before needle insertion.
Once you get a small bottle of clove oil, simply take just one single drop and rub it right on the area. Now, for teething babies, mix the clove oil with an equal amount of coconut oil and then use that mixture to rub it right on the area.
If you don’t have clove essential oil at home, you can go to the store and actually buy just clove powder, mix that with coconut oil and rub that on the area as well. But I’ve found the oil of clove to be the most effective, even more effective than the clove powder that you’d cook with or bake with at home.
2. Sea Salt
The next thing you want to use for home remedies for toothache relief is sea salt. In fact, the benefits of sea salt include its natural antibacterial activities, so using sea salt in the area by gargling and swishing with water can actually have an analgesic effect.
Rather than using table salt, however, I strongly encourage you to use Celtic Sea Salt ® or Himalayan salt, which has over 60 trace minerals and can aid healing.
3. Peppermint Oil
Last but not least, if you really want to soothe or numb the area, use peppermint oil . Peppermint oil contains menthol, which can help numb that area. Simply mix peppermint oil with coconut oil at a 1:1 ratio and rub on the gum area.
To date, there are over 30o scientific studies referring to peppermint essential oils and 2297 about menthol, so the evidence exists in abundance about how effective peppermint oil can be.
Home Remedy Steps to Take for Toothaches
Ideally, for home remedies for toothache relief, take the following steps. The first thing you would do is swish around sea salt and water in your mouth for two minutes. Next, create a mixture of clove oil and peppermint oil (and possibly coconut oil if you’re using the mixture for an infant) and rub it directly on the area.
If you take all of those simple steps, you’re going to find it’s really going to help you overcome that toothache very quickly.
However, if the pain really gets out of hand, obviously, you do want to go and see your local dentist or schedule appointment to see a dentist.
Some other things you may consider doing is really backing off your sugar addiction . Consuming sugar can feed yeast and bacteria that can be causing a toothache or general inflammation in the area.

Abe and Putin held bilateral talks on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.
“The meeting lasted 40 minutes, the discussion was frank and very diverse and meaningful. They discussed three points, one of them was territorial issues. First of all, Russia and Japan agreed to move forward negotiations on a peace treaty to find a mutually acceptable solution,” ministry spokesman Yasuhisa Kawamura told RIA Novosti.

| I overslept this morning, and I've been all out of sorts ever since. Things are starting to settle down for me though so I was able to get into my craft room and finish up this card that I had partially done last night. The sweet image is from Imagine That and is this month's Digi of the Month, Maggie's Apples. She is just so cute!!! I used the sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday, so perfect to use up some scraps of pattern paper.

| When it looked like the Llano Yellowjackets were going to bring forth a consistent offense, a defense that did not allow the big play, and special teams that stayed disciplined, all fell apart in Brady Texas last Friday night. To say, "these things happen" is letting everyone off the hook.
I know not where to start. How do seniors still jump off sides? Where was the gang tackling? It was nearly a dream, but when we all woke up, the nightmare was real. This was one game I had no explanation for. And as I write two days later, and look at the stats, still have no clue to everything falling apart in one game.
And since I have no idea, you get up, dust off the britches, and get mad. Get ready to play again. No one quit. There was good effort. There were good plays. And while I never kept stats on plays over 10 yards, a yardstick even used by colleges and pros, this is one look at what happens on both sides of the ball and gives some insight. Llano had 7 such plays, 4 in the first quarter. 4 were passes to three different receivers. Brady on the other hand had 12, 7 running plays for 176 yards. The second effort of chasing is usually the key to this kind of stat.
I hope the Yellowjackets recognize the great heads-up play of junior Jaden Napolez. His hustle down field on a Llano punt in the 3rd quarter and keeping his head in the game gave Llano the ball at midfield off his recovered fumble. Just good effort. Then when all is lost, and Llano is down 34-0, his effort produced an interception/fumble recovery and he ran the ball in for Llano's only points. As a very old timer, I want to thank Jaden for not letting Brady shut out the Jackets. Good game.
The Jackets get no time to lick their wounds. A very strong Fredericksburg team comes to Llano this Friday night. Burnet just beat the Billies Friday night. Fredericksburg thinks they have their best team in 20 years. This is where the Jackets decide about this season. Maybe some will retreat. But others will step up. If you have a strong senior class, this is where they had better recognize the urgency of getting the cob-webs out of the helmet and get serious. Fredericksburg will be picked over Llano by 30 points, and their ranking deserves that edge. But, Llano has a history...Llano has played the heck out of Fredericksburg when the Billies expected it the least. This Friday night could be one of those times. Llano makes no stupid mistakes. Llano covers on kick-offs and punts. No turnovers. None. Play like it is the last game you will ever play. And Llano, when you do that, you will walk off that new Jacket Stadium turf with your pride and integrity all in hand. You can do it. But you must believe. Believe in everything you have worked for since the 7th grade. This week will take that kind of effort. | SPORTS |

| ONE of the most iconic and influential British bands of all-time, The Kinks release Sunny Afternoon, The Very Best Of – a must-have 2-disc retrospective – on October 16, 2015 on the BMG label.
The album features original versions of all the songs from the hit West End musical, with added bonus tracks that didn’t make the final cut of the production and some of Ray Davies’s personal picks he feels fit into the context of the release, including other Kinks’ hits and classics, BBC interviews and BBC session tracks.
Along with a total of nine UK top five hit singles including three Number 1s, the album, unlike other Kinks compilations, features tracks chosen by Ray that were not originally hits but over the years have become so due to TV shows, films and covers by other artists.
Following a sold-out run at Hampstead Theatre, Sunny Afternoon opened at the West End’s Harold Pinter Theatre in 2014 and won four Laurence Oliver Awards including Best New Musical, Best Actor In A Musical, Best Actor In A Supporting Role In A Musical, and Outstanding Achievement In Music for Ray Davies.
From the very instant You Really Got Me roared to Number 1 in 1964, The Kinks (along with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Who) came to define a generation and confirm Britain as the rock ‘n’ roll centre of the world.
With incomparable legendary frontman Ray Davies at the helm, brother Dave on lead guitar, Mick Avory on drums and Pete Quaife on bass, classic after classic followed You Really Got Me into the charts – from All Day And All Of The Night – which, along with its predecessor, is credited with helping to invent heavy metal and punk– to the risqué Lola , the pastoral Tired Of Waiting and Sunny Afternoon , a chart topper when England won the World Cup in 1966.
Their 1967 smash hit Waterloo Sunset is widely considered to be among the greatest singles ever released – with Pete Townsend, Blur’s Damon Albarn and Paul Weller citing it as one of their everlasting favourites.
The influence of The Kinks on generations of British music makers is incalculable, from glam rockers such as David Bowie, Mott The Hoople and Marc Bolan, to the new wave of Ian Dury, Madness, the punk of The Clash and The Pretenders (who had two top 40 hits with Kinks covers), to recent acts like Blur, Oasis, Mumford & Sons and Supergrass.
The Kinks and Ray Davies in particular have been resurgent recently with not only the West End musical being phenomenally successful but also Davies closing the 2012 London Olympic Games with a stunning rendition of Waterloo Sunset , watched by nearly one billion people worldwide, and also releasing his autobiography Americana: The Kinks, The Road and The Perfect Riff .

| Big thanks to whoever dropped off these stickers at all the stores today, come by and grab some… A photo posted by Jinxed Philadelphia (@jinxedstore) on Sep 19, 2015 at 5:20pm PDT What is the Old Philadelphia? Is it a place where Louis Winthorpe III still rides SEPTA each December with fish strategically hidden in his Santa Claus suit? Or rather a mystical fantasyland where Zipperhead never closed, Bok serves students instead of pricey hot dogs, the original Toynbee tiler is still spreading his incomprehensible message on the streets late at night, and homes in Fishtown are actually affordable? We don’t know exactly where the above stickers are nostalgic for anymore, because whatever that place referenced here that vaguely exists in our memory was, it has joined Horn and Hardart and the Wanamaker’s Monorail to become another Thing That Isn’t There Anymore. More questions abound: Is Philly better off now than in some idealized memory? What about progress? Should we get lunch at Honeygrow? Join us and ponder these, won’t you?

| For the &Stitches Freaky Flower Swap, I got my inspiration from the iconic flower in Dr Seuss' Horton Hears a Who - the wacky bloom that housed an entire world in a dust speck! I used gold metallic embroidery floss for the dust speck; I couched some green felted cord for the stem...but I wanted to use a technique new to me for the flower itself.
The Turkey Rug Stitch seemed perfect to capture the fluffy essence. It can lend a beautiful velvety texture or silky shagginess when using embroidery floss. I used DK yarn for the stitching - which made it very fluffy and big, like a pom pom!
For my project, I used a tapestry needle and double-knit yarn. The fabric is a loose-weave linen - you need a fabric that will allow the yarn to flow through without stretching out of shape. The first stitch is made from front to back, leaving a tail sticking up from the fabric (see the far left yarn tail below). You then bring the needle up to the right of the yarn and make an anchoring backstitch over the tail. Then come up a bit to the right of the anchor stitch and insert the needle underneath that previous stitch.
Pull the yarn/floss through the fabric, leaving a loop above the surface of the fabric. Typically, you will make the loops the same size as that first tail of yarn/floss - but because I was making a crazy Dr Seuss flower, I didn't worry too much about staying even because I wanted the end result to be fluffy and freaky.
Hold the loop threads down with the opposite hand as you bring the needle back up to the right of your loop, leaving a teensy gap. Make a back stitch to anchor the loop by taking the needle down beside the end of the previous anchoring back stitch. This back stitch will go over the loop base, keeping it secure.
Repeat this process until you have filled the space with loops, then snip the loops and trim to the desired length. Or just leave them loopy!
My finished flower head, a mad tangle of yarn that holds a tiny universe of Whos. | CULTURE & ARTS |

| I’ve been wanting to do a ferry ride to the islands with the family, but summer just flew by. We finally set a date and were able to get the ferry reservations we wanted, so we were off! Unfortunately, the beautiful summer decided to deteriorate on us for that one day, but we were so thankful whenever we got a break from the heat that we didn’t care that much. We didn’t get wet, and since we were hiking most of the time, we weren’t really cold either – in fact, the girls had their sweatshirts off most of the day! We walked around the water’s edge near the ferry dock as we waited for the ferry. It was a foggy morning!
First we headed to the opposite side of the island from the ferry dock to Obstruction Pass State Park. We found a trail that led to a beach and we did some beach combing and rock climbing. Then we headed up to Mt. Constitution…the original plan was for Sarah to run up Mt. Constitution while we drove…but we were already doing a fair amount of hiking and she decided it wasn’t the right workout for her that day. It was cloudy, but we could still see a fair bit from up there! There’s a big tower with lots of steps you can climb up to get an even better view. We did some more hikes in Moran State Park – the goal of the day was to create a “Lord of the Rings” experience – and the foggy weather definitely helped with the mood! All the mossy trails and rolling hills with roads named things like Enchanted Forest Road and Elderberry Lane, complete with the Gandolf-tower on Mt. Constitution, surrounded by evergreen trees…if you use your imagination the forests even feel magical! So on our next hike we were attempting to find a hobbit-like shelter, a troll-like stump, and some caves to remind us of the Mines of Moria. Those two weren’t as enchanted by the fantasy experience, but we had fun! We found the hobbit-like shelter AND the troll-like stump that someone carved a face in…but the directions for scrambling up the side to find the caves left us bewildered… We sat and waited while Ed & the big girls went cave hunting, but they were unsuccessful. We went on another hike that was supposed to have 4 waterfalls and we were going to assign each girl a waterfall, but we only ever found 3…so 2 girls had to share. When we got back to Eastsound, which is the main town on the island, there was a white Episcopal Church that had a labyrinth walk we all wanted to do. You’re supposed to pray & meditate…but we just ran around it being goofy. After ice cream for dinner, we drove through some more island-rolling-fantasy-evoking hills, parked at the ferry dock (then had our real dinner of sandwiches, fruit, & chips from the cooler in the back of the van) and waited for our hour ferry ride back to the mainland. After that it was a 75 minute drive home…so we got back late and were tired, but it was a fun family day! | TRAVEL |

| Two weeks ago Suzuki GB entertained a few select dealers and their customers at the MotoGP (Octo British Grand Prix) at Silverstone. Although the weather could have been better for the riders, it certainly proved entertaining for the fans.
In the paddock Suzuki showed off the MotoGP GSX-R750 and the new Address 110 as fans and customers buzzed around under the impressive huge Suzuki Ecstar wrapper around the stand. Suzuki were looking to make a big visual impact by painting the Copse A grandstand blue. In fact they did that and even rivalled the Rossi crowd in Copse C.
Copse A Silverstone MotoGP with Suzuki – featuring the new MotoGP Suzuki Address110 The race
Ten minutes before the race was due to get underway the rain came down and the racing conditions changed very quickly. The bikes were setup on slicks and after the race got underway a restart from the pits was mooted, but after a delay the riders retook their places on the grid. A few comments were made as spectators pondered if the change in conditions would determine the outcome of the race and favour one rider over the rest. One name came up more than anyone else’s – Valentino Rossi.
The rain had already taken care of teamates Miller and Crutchlow and with about eight laps remaining Marquez looked poised to make a move having been on Rossi’s tale the whole race, however one miscalculation on Copse Corner to seal the win for Rossi.
Copse Corner just so happened to be where we were sat in the Grandstand and from the opposite grandstand the Rossi fans erupted as Marquez slid out of the race.
With the Suzuki Ecstar team, back in the MotoGP for the 2015 season we witnessed Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Viñales finishing in very respectable 9th and 11th places respectively to round off a very enjoyable afternoon’s.
On behalf of John’s of Romford and our Suzuki customers, we’d like to thank Suzuki GB for a great afternoon… if you could arrange the weather next year though that would be even better!!
