Accelerate SSH connections in ansible
Today I show a much easier, more comprehensible and even faster method with SSH proxyjump in your settings via config file and SSH multiplexing.
With the multiplexing feature, SSH connections can be accelerated significantly.
SSH multplexing minimizes the overhead of TCP connection and key negotiation. Connections are not constantly being rebuilt.
To enable the feature, you need the following entry in your local ~/.ssh/config on your control node:
- %r is the remote user
- %h is the remote host
- %p is the remote port
Multiplexing uses sockets that are stored in the /tmp directory.
However, you can basically use any other path in which the user is allowed to write.
In order for ansible to be able to use the acceleration, enter the following in your targets hosts config file:
You can also make this setting centrally in ansible.cfg for all target nodes. The entry would be here:
If, like me, you can't remember the many SSH proxyjump commands, you can help yourself by using the SSH config.
In ~/.ssh/config there is the possibility to enter hosts and to configure the proxyjump command easily understandable as default for the connection to server X.
To do this, first enter the gateway server:
All other hosts can be entered below:
Connection via SSH can now be executed without complex SSH command. In this case it would be:
The target node can now be entered accordingly in the inventory list.

This exhibit takes us to a Journey back in time to discover one of the most impressive sea creatures that haunted the oceans 1.5 million years ago, the Megalodon (Otodus megalodon)
This exhibition was designed to breathe new life into a previously sterile space in the aquarium and, at the same time, to complement the theme of the main tank area, where sharks – the most iconic fish of Palma aquarium – are exhibited.
A constant challenges is to transmit the most relevant information – in this case in 3 languages – in a limited space while still offering value to both types of audience, adult and child. Visual communication and points of interactivity, as always, are our best allies.
For us, an important part in this type of montage is the viewer experience when entering the exhibition area. In this case, we play with design details: the color palette, typefaces, illustration style; to convey the feeling of being in an archaeological site while discovering the fossil remains of the Megalodon.
The Megalodon tour begins with the first and only clue that tells us about its existence, a real-scale fossilized tooth model where the visitor can interact comparing it to the size of their hand. From here we visually locate their existence in a referential time line, we talk about other species with which they lived, their eating habits and we explore the theories of their extinction. At the end of the tour, the icing on the cake is added by an impressive full-scale model of the Megalodon’s jaw, also thought of as a photocall point.
This exhibition is currently being developed for “Palma Aquarium” and has not yet been inaugurated, so it is still on design phase. Below comes a sample of the process and creation of the elements for this space. We hope very soon to see it staged and share with you the result of this work we have done together with a great team of professionals.
- for “Palma Aquarium”, Mallorca
- permanent themed exhibit
- informative and interactive
- currently in design phase
- Creative direction
- Interactive tours
- Education and divulgation

In a year during which more people than ever before took the opportunity to play cricket nationally, the game across Durham also offered more opportunities to get involved than ever before, with a record number of clubs running entry-level programmes.
Over 100,000 children took part in All Stars and Dynamos Cricket nationally, with over 3,000 children taking up the game across Durham alone.
Nearly 30% of those were girls, fuelling the growth of the female game across the county, with the number of girls’ U11 softball teams almost doubling in the 2022 summer and with women’s softball teams growing by 80%.
The junior game continued to grow and thrive across our county, as the DCB Junior League ran for its 10th season, with 70 clubs and over 250 teams taking part in the five divisions of the League.
All Stars Cricket and Dynamos Cricket
A record number of clubs delivered All Stars Cricket in 2022, introducing nearly 2,500 boys and girls aged five to eight to the game. Five new clubs delivered the eight-week programme for the first time, expanding the entry-level cricket opportunities in the county further than before.
Last season also marked the second year of Dynamos Cricket, with the countdown cricket programme being delivered in more centres than before too.
Girls accounted for over 30% of Dynamos Cricket participants and nearly 700 girls took part in All Stars Cricket, helping accelerate the growth of U11 softball girls’ cricket across the county.
Durham Cricket’s Development Department provided free cricket opportunities to over 500 children who would not have otherwise had access to the game through entry-level programmes.
By running free All Stars Cricket courses, funded by the ECB and free Dynamos Cricket Intros, funded by Sky Sports, 277 five to eight-year-old children and over 130 eight to 11-year-olds got to play the game for the first time.
Durham Cricket ran nearly 30 programmes across the summer in underprivileged areas and engaged children who might not have ordinarily had access to cricket for a variety of reasons.
Women’s and Girls’ Cricket
The 2022 season brough success to the female game across all levels of the game – from the Warriors getting to national finals to the strongest growth for U11 girls’ cricket, the summer was an exceptional one for the development and growth of girls’ and women’s cricket.
The most monumental event was one for the U18 North East Warriors – joint Durham Cricket and Northumberland Cricket Board side – as the squad earned the third place in the ECB Royal London U18 Girls’ County Cup.
In the lead-up to reaching national finals, the squad won their quarter-final at Seat Unique Riverside – a brilliant experience for the players in a game raising the profile of the team.
The girls’ county squads also followed suit and produced the most accomplished season in the past five years for the entire female pathway – from Under-11 County Girls to the North East Warriors Senior Women.
All girls’ age groups were comfortably competing and winning against some of the bigger counties in the country with much larger talent pools.
At recreational level, the 2022 summer marked the most impactful year for girls’ and women’s league cricket in Durham, with more fixtures played than ever before and significant growth of U11 girls’ teams and softball women’s teams.
The season was a record-breaking one for women’s softball teams – with 9 teams taking part, these were the best participation numbers the League has ever had, an almost 50% increase from last year.
The number of girls’ U11 softball teams almost doubled, with more fixtures than ever before being played across the summer.
The 2022 season marked a decade in which the DCB Junior League has been providing a platform for junior teams to play regular cricket in a consistent structure.
In its 10 complete season, the league saw 70 clubs participate, with 264 teams playing across five regionalised divisions.
Durham Cricket’s Interleague Competition was aligned to the DCB Junior League for the first season, with representative teams made up of the best players of each Junior League division.
In a bid to better showcase club cricket through the Interleague Competition, players wore their club kit for fixtures, making the days a fantastic festival of local recreational cricket, showcasing its best players.
For another year, the initiative gave players the chance to play cricket at a higher level and to be observed and considered for selection into Durham’s County Age Group Squads by county coaches.
Visually Impaired Cricket
Durham Cricket’s Visually Impaired team completed another excellent season, during which players improved both individually and as a team throughout the summer.
They developed excellent teamwork and established a very close-knit group, which showed on the pitch.
Although the team didn’t reach their aspiration of retaining the title of League winners in the BCEW North Regional League for a third season running, they had an excellent summer, during which they played two home games and competed well against tough opposition.
Our work in schools
For another year, alongside Chance to Shine and ECB, Durham Cricket delivered free cricket opportunities in 120 schools across the county.
The Development Department supported clubs with delivery in their local schools, aiming to introduce pupils to the game and offer children transition routes through entry-level national programmes.
Durham Cricket also delivered 354 hours of schools’ cricket festivals, offering and running competitive opportunities for primary and secondary schools across the county.
Over 3,000 pupils took part in over 50 festivals across the county, as we returned to a packed schedule of festivals after a couple of years with a more limited schools competition programme due to the pandemic.
A significant moment in the season was the national trophy which our delivery partners Young Asian Voices and their girls’ team from Thornhill Academy claimed at the Chance to Shine Girls’ Street Cricket Finals at the Home of Cricket.
Our work in the community
Our successful partnership with Young Asian Voices (YAV), a multicultural youth and community organisation in Sunderland, resulted in a significant growth of community cricket offerings across the city, which remove barriers to participations for ethnic minorities and offer free opportunities to play and compete.
Since launching Chance to Shine Street four years ago, our partnership has grown immensely and now boasts playing, competitive and volunteer cricket opportunities; impactful relationships with local schools, the formation of an Under-9, Under-11 and girls’ only teams, as well as regular training all year round and participation in the DCB Junior League.
In 2022, we relaunched two disability hubs, offering free cricket opportunities in Sunderland and South Tyneside, through our partnership project with the Lord’s Taverners – Super 1.
By creating community cricket hubs, the programme gives young people with a disability an opportunity to play regular, competitive cricket.
Alongside the Lord’s Taverners, we also continued to deliver our successful Wicketz project in the Hartlepool area, which breaks down barriers to participation for young people living in areas of deprivation.
Through sustainable community cricket hubs, the initiative provides year-round weekly cricket sessions with a focus on developing crucial life skills, creating stronger communities and enabling brighter futures for those taking part.

Plans for a PS4 iteration of long-in-development cosmic horror FPS Quantum Error have been cancelled, with developer TeamKill citing qualitative issues in a statement that approaches humblebrag. In 2020, we wondered if this spooky shooter might be a PS5 launch title, and in the years since, it's been moulded into a tense-looking experience, and a technically-demanding one, at that. To soften the blow, we got a fresh look at gameplay, which you can check out below. TeamKill explains:
“Unfortunately, we are going to have to cancel the PlayStation 4 version of Quantum Error. Even with the game being made from the beginning for the PlayStation 5, we still had hopes we could make a PlayStation 4 version happen, but with the level of quality we have achieved with Quantum Error with gameplay running at 60 frames per second, we have reached the conclusion that there is no way for us to deliver a version on PlayStation 4 that would live up to what the PlayStation 5 is going to deliver.”
The studio continued, stating: “A PlayStation 4 version would require too much downgrading and changing of assets, lighting, and much more to function, and with the difference in memory and the slower HDD speed, it would be a very different experience that will not compare to the PlayStation 5 version and would not be fair to PlayStation 4 players.”
Quantum Error takes place inside the Monad Quantum Research facility, which, after an unknown entity attacks it, necessitates a total containment lockdown. A team of firefighters is sent in to save as many lives from the blazing inferno as possible before things take a turn towards the cosmic and the horrible.

If you’ve read any of my blog posts from our family holiday to Brittany, you probably won’t be surprised to hear all our jeans are a little (or a lot) tighter now we’re back. It happens. It’s fine. It was worth it. We’ll just be extra healthy for a few days and it’ll all balance out, thought I. Then I got home to find a bunch of over-ripe bananas sitting unloved in the fruit bowl. And we know what over-ripe bananas call for, don’t we? BAKING, of course. So, I decided to make a pretty-good-for-you-in-the-scheme-of-baking batch of muffins, so as not to derail our healthy eating intentions. Not too much, anyway. These babies are made with sustaining, slow-release-energy wholemeal flour, oil instead of butter and relatively little sugar thanks to all the luscious sweetness from the banana – that’s why you need reeeaaally ripe, brown, speckly bananas. Said bananas also ensure moistness.
The muffins are also home to healthy-but-scrummy raisins and pecans, which adds interest to the texture and complements the banana and cinnamon perfectly, in my esteemed opinion. (If you were feeling more indulgent you could add some cheeky chocolate chips though.) Quite frankly, I think the flavour combo makes these muffins just parfait for breakfast. But obviously they’d be delicious at any other time of day. And c’mon, there are oats on tops. Anything oaty has got to be good for you, right? Oh, and I once read that cinnamon boosts your metabolism, so that’s nice. My favourite part of a muffin is the muffin top, so with that in mind I always fill my muffin cases relatively well. Doing so, this recipe made 11 sweet, yummy, moist muffins of yumness.I made them late at night (hence the less than great light in the pictures) for breakfast-to-go on the next day’s early morning road trip. It was VERY hard not to devour them fresh from the oven. That banana-y baking smell is just irresistible.
150g wholemeal flour
100g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
100g dark muscovado sugar
25g chopped pecan nuts (I actually just break them with my fingers)
25g sultanas or raisins
3 big or 4 small very ripe bananas, mashed
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tbsp milk
100ml sunflower oil
a sprinkling of oats
1. Heat the oven to 180C and line 11 holes of a muffin tin with paper cases. Sift the flours, baking powder and cinnamon into a large bowl and stir in the sugar, nuts and raisins – make sure no lumps of sugar are left.
2. Add the banana, eggs, oil and milk and fold in quickly with a large metal spoon – don’t overmix (it should be lumpy) otherwise the muffins will have a tough texture.
3. Divide the mixture between muffin tins. Fill them just about to the top, sprinkle on a few oats and bake for 20 minutes. Leave to cool for ten minutes in the tin, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. If you can wait that long, that is.

In our last two discussions about using a beat sheet or sculpting your novel into a unique container of your own, we covered the benefits and downfalls of using both approaches. Those two posts are found in the archives under the titles: Beat The Sheet or Break The Glass and Part II Beat The Sheet or Break The glass.
Today, our final discussion on the concept will cover; How?
First...let's take a look at the 15 beats on the beat sheet from Save The Cat, by Blake Snyder.
1. Opening Image (Page
2. Theme Stated (Page 15
3. Set-Up (Pages 3-30
4. Catalyst (Page 36
5. Debate (Pages 36-75
into Act Two (Page
Story (Page 90
8. Fun and Games (Pages 90-165
9. Midpoint (Page 165
10. Bad Guys Close In (Pages 165-225
11. All Is Lost (Page 225
12. Dark Night of the Soul (Pages
13. Break into Act Three (Page 255
14. Finale (Pages 255-330
15. Final Image (Page 330
There are deeper explanations of what belongs in each beat and how to create them but its complicated and you should read the book for full understanding.
With this pattern comes predictability and often times crams a story into scenes and plot points that don't seem to support the story itself. I read a book with a great character and for the first 35 pages of the book it was really good. refer to the above list...
This is the point where the author is setting the scene, introducing the characters and getting the reader ready for the story. There is quite a bit of flexibility here.
As soon as the story needed to follow certain steps in the beat sheet though, the book became unsteady. The sequence of scenes stopped making sense. The character was doing things the story didn't want to do. The heroine went from strong and in control, to weak and needy. She got a boyfriend who had no use in the story, a masked rescuer that diminished the danger she was in, instead of increasing it, and had her playfully enjoying a school dance in the middle of running for her life. All because the beat sheet told the author to put the story in that order.
I don't know the success of this particular novel, but I know as a writer and reader, I won't buy any more of this author's work.
So...why do authors stick to the beat sheet so strictly, if it doesn't always lead to success?
Because the important occurrences in the novel are important. They just don't necessarily need to be in the order or on the page number the beat sheet demands.
If your character wants to start with a catalyst moment that flings her normal life into chaos. Let her do it.
If your dark night of the soul happens before the bad guys close in and the character readies them self for a battle like they've never faced before, let them do it. Let the story go where it wants to go, just always be aware of the characters or plot driving the story into a corner. As the story unfolds and you find yourself in the middle of something you don't know how to get your character out of, then back track. You may change one scene or add a single character to a scene and suddenly you have the way out. The story needs to begin fluid, in motion and unorganized to some extent while you get it to the point where it has satisfied its telling. A lot of writers don't like to do this because its months worth of work that may be deleted, forgotten or tossed out during revisions. However, if you are patient and nurturing of your work, learning all the places the story could have gone but won't go, makes it the perfect story by the time you're there.
I have only my own experiences to illustrate this to me. My first novel was about 20 K longer but was edited down to fit the publication criteria. Maybe it was too wordy or it took side trails it shouldn't have. Publication was fast and maybe it just wanted something different. My second novel took two years to finish. I went down roads that never appear in the finished work. I delved into background scenes that will never be seen, but developed the character in the final book.I've been letting my urban fantasy try to tell me where it wants to go for almost five years now. Every time I attempt to cram it into some kind of pattern, it rebels. Hence the reason its taking so long.
Research and work on figuring out how to be a better writer has taught me so much about how to be a better story teller. I refer to the beat sheet when my story stalls, but only to find the road map for where it wants to go next. Not to follow the pattern. Shattering the traditional wine glass to craft my own container has brought my stories to life in my own thoughts a little more each day I learn. I hope my next novel will show my reader, writer and family fans that. Mostly I hope to let you all enjoy the wine, not talk about drinking it from the wrong glass.
In the meantime, I'll keep working and you keep writing!

Making a Monastic Rule of Life
Rule of Life…How? Why? What for?
Every Monastic should create for themselves a Rule of Life, a guide and help, better yet a measuring stick for spiritual growth and practice.
Aquinata Böckman, a Benedictine Nun from Tutzing Germany who is a Doctorate professor at the Pontifical Imstitute of Spirituality in Rome since 1973 says this about our Religious and Spiritual Identity.
“Profession, is not an action completed once and for all; rather it must be appropriated, affirmed, integrated into ones life and deepened. In times of crisis or half heartedness, remembering can be a call to conversion or it can strengthen our trust in God’s guidance. If God, who had plans for me, had not stood by me, I would never have been able to come through the difficulties encountered on the way. God remains faithful to God’s self and will continue to help me.”
P. 103 Perspectives on the Rule of St. Benedict.
What gives us the meaning and significance that we need to continue our energy in life not only in the church but with those with whom we have made commitments; our friends, our families, the people we serve and are responsible to?
As members of a Religious Community we must not forget that our lives are “public” and affect those around us as professed religious.
We have all heard of a RULE of LIFE, and most of us live by some rule whether it is written or just an extension of our core values as we live them.
All of us know about formal Rules that Monastics live under, in order to carry out their duties as Monks within a monastery. As Benedictines our primary Rule of Life is the Rule of St Benedict, every thing else hovers around that central rule. The Rule of Benedict covers and pretty much dictates all of the elements of a monk’s life, prayer, free time, work, community life.
What is a Monastic Rule? Anglican Benedictine Monk from Nashdom Abbey writes.
A Monastic Rule is….
“A resource providing for The individual, a way into the Christian life of the future, through the religious and social turmoil of the present.”
Dom James Leachman
It is a guide, a help, a resource, a means to an end, yet not an end in itself.
Think of your own rule of life as having these goals.
1. An Ordering one’s days to the rhythms of God.
2. Something that includes Patterns of regular practice.
3. Intentionally ordering and attending to your checkpoints in life, something living and flexible.
4. A wholistic, organic design that provides a frame work for a faithful life as a member of The New Benedictine Community.
“In other words, a Rule properly speaking is what Father Pierre the founder of the Jerusalem Community in Paris France that now has some 300 members calls…
“a spiritual outline containing the main orientations of our way of life; sufficiently precise to guide our footsteps and to make our lives one harmonious whole.”
My own journey to living a rule of life, began by reading a book that I ran across in my travels as a priest.
It was entitled,
“Ordinary People As Monks & Mystics: Lifestyles for Spiritual Wholeness.”
It is a book of Stories of ordinary people who choose a solitary lifestyle to find wholeness and self actualization.
After reading this book I realized that I had a deep longing for going deeper in my own spiritual life and that much of what I did daily as a Parish Priest did not fulfill that desire and longing. I needed something for myself. Something for me.
As I decided to go deeper and look deeper I discovered what is known today as “new monasticism”. Small intentional communities all over the world that are seeking a deeper experience of the Divine beyond the ordinary activities and business of parish life. Communities that are seriously interested in not the “social” aspect of religion, (like Christmas Bazaars, fundraisers, committees and vestries) but living into a life of prayer, contemplation and service to the world.
Father Zossima in Dostoecsky’s The Brothers Karamazov speaks……
“a Monastic is not a special sort of person, but simply what every person ought to be. “
With these words begins the preface of the Book Benedict’s Dharma, Buddhists reflections on the Rule of St. Benedict, by patrick Henry.
He goes on to say..” A student of mine once said ‘a monk or a nun lurks inside each of us….'”
One dispersed Monastic speaks of the Religious life as facing ones own longings and dissatisfactions.
“Monasticism begins in longing and dissatisfaction.”
(From the Book Secular Monasticism)
But isn’t that how all of us come to know God in one way or another?
The need for having some Rule that helps us live out our Christian Commitment since our Baptism comes out of these principles…..
• A desire for authentic and true spirituality, beyond the merely formal routine of church.
• • A connectedness with others who share the journey.
• A deep ecumenism, joining with, learning from, and welcoming all.
• A historical perspective, learning from the old paths.
• A heart for the liberation of all sentient life, equality, fairness, and justice for human beings and non-human beings alike.
(Andrew Fitz Gibbon, Secular Monasticism, a journey AFG
Abbot of Lindisfarne Community)
Here are some questions you may want to ask yourself as you work on your own Rule.
A Benedictine Living Inventory
Here are some of the major themes of Benedictine life. We reflect on these regularly in our Monthly Chapter meetings. They can help us to format a personal rule as we reflect, discuss, and think upon how we live our lives as Monastics in the world, and Christians in General.
Prayer- What do you seek in your prayer and what is your greatest challenge to a regular prayer life?
Service- whose feet do you wash and do you ever serve someone who cannot repay your kindness?
Community- Who is community for you and How well do you let them know you?
Conversion- What change is needed in your heart and life?
Obedience- To whom do you listen, especially when you have already made up your mind about something?
Stability- what is enduring and constant in your life?
Balance- how is that working out for you?
Hospitality- who is it difficult to accept and embrace?
Study- what are you learning about on a daily basis and are you curious?
Zeal- where is your passion found?
Undivided focus- Is there anything in your life that allows you to dissolve into the moment?
Daily Rhythm- how do you experience the day and the seasons? How are they expressed in your prayer life?
Some Other Benedictine Values for reflection
Modesty….(dress, attitude, talk, laughter)
Gelassenheit/serenity and tranquility. Composure, A monastic composure.
From the Prior of the Jerusalem Community Paris
“The worth of a Rule lies not so much in what it says in words as in the life lived by it. Not lived, a beautiful Rule is merely a dead letter. Well lived, an imperfect Rule becomes spirit and life.”
These thoughts are to get you started as you create your own rule of life. Also read and reflect our constitution as a community which should also be reflected in how we live our our Monastic Vocation specifically in relation to our own community.

October 31st, 2018 4:40 PM
Univision may have broken the irony meter with this particular booking: Congressman Luis Gutiérrez on Sunday political talker Al Punto, in order to discuss the recent attempted mail bombings and make distinctions between types of nationalism.

In the world of finance, women have historically faced significant challenges and biases due to their gender. Not only have they been excluded from participating, but their stories and successes have often been overlooked or viewed through a patriarchal lens. In this blog post, we shine a light on five remarkable female investors who defied conventions and made their mark in the financial world. They show that women can invest, always have and are exceptionally good at it!
WHERE DID IT START?
Women’s ability to own, manage, and create financial wealth has always been closely tied to their marital status.
In the 9th century, European women were allowed to own property, whether married or not. Norse societies allowed women to engage in business on equal terms with men.
However, by the 12th century, English common law introduced a concept known as coverture. This defined married couples as one financial entity. Married women’s possessions were considered the property of their husbands. This led on to the belief that married women themselves were their husband’s property.
WOMEN AND THE FINANCIAL REVOLUTION
The late 17th to the early 18th centuries is a period known as the Financial Revolution in England. During this time women from all backgrounds actively invested in various financial opportunities.
The opportunities arose out of a need to finance England’s war against France. Women made up a significant portion of the investors in this so called ‘loan industry’ (one-fifth to one-third). Often making speculative and risky investments women worked alongside brokers and bankers. This expanded their connections to a wider network beyond their traditional family circles.
The capital provided by women played a critical role in Britain’s emergence as a dominant economic, military and colonial power.
Sarah Churchill: Largest Single Account Holder at the Bank of England (1660-1744)
Sarah Churchill, the Duchess of Marlborough, was not only a sharp businesswoman but also an early adopter of the Financial Revolution. She had a powerful friendship with Queen Anne, depicted in the film “The Favourite.”
After her husband, the Duke of Marlborough, passed away in 1722, he left behind an estate worth £1 million. It was managed by trustees, including Sarah. When Sarah passed away in 1744, this fortune had grown to an estimated £4 million.
Despite lacking formal financial education, Sarah developed her own successful and mysterious money management techniques, that left her contemporaries astounded. At the time of her death, she held the distinction of being the largest single account holder in the Bank of England, with an account worth £166,855.
FINANCIAL CHANGES IN THE 19th CENTURY
As the 19th century unfolded, England and Wales experienced population growth, rising incomes, and the emergence of a thriving middle class. The Companies Acts of the 1850s and 1860s expanded investment opportunities. Single and widowed women were granted the same financial rights as men.
Single and widowed women could now own bank accounts, write checks, and purchase investments in their own name. They could also attend, speak, and vote at company annual general meetings. Married women eventually gained similar rights through the Married Women’s Property Acts of 1870 and 1882. They could then acquire and retain property in their own name, control their earnings, sue and be sued.
These legal changes liberated women from coverture, allowing them to live independently from their husbands and support their children. But the social stigma attached to this meant that women very rarely did this.
Fanny Cockerell: Financial Success to Make a Difference (1834-1900)
Born into a prominent and wealthy family, Fanny Cockerell defied societal norms to become a successful investor in the stock market. She displayed a remarkable ability to assess market trends and identify lucrative opportunities. She amassed a significant personal fortune. Her diversified portfolio included investments in railways, industrial enterprises and various other sectors, reflecting her astute approach to wealth management.
What set Fanny Cockerell apart was her commitment to using her financial success for philanthropic purposes. She generously supported charitable causes, particularly those focused on education and women’s rights. Her contributions played a pivotal role in advancing the feminist cause in the 19th century.
ACROSS THE POND: NOTABLE WOMEN IN AMERICAN FINANCE
The Gilded Age in the United States was marked by booming economic growth and innovation. While John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Henry Ford and Andrew Carnegie are known as the titans of industry, several women also made their mark in finance and investing.
Mary Ellen Pleasant:
”Capitalist by Profession” (1814-1904)
Mary Ellen Pleasant was a 19th-century entrepreneur, financier, real estate magnate and abolitionist. She defined herself as a “capitalist by profession”. Her mission was to amass wealth to help as many people as possible.
Mary Ellen had a successful business providing lodging for miners during the California Gold Rush. After moving to San Francisco, she made intelligent investments in gold, silver, various companies and banks. While working as a live-in domestic she overheard conversations between the wealthy men she served. She used this information to inform her investment decisions.
Mary Ellen was aware of her precarious position as a black woman who had achieved financial and political power. She found ways to integrate into the culture of her time, forming a close alliance with Thomas Bell. He was a wealthy banker and capitalist and he helped her keep her true financial status a secret. Their collaboration meant she could finance and build her own mansion, that outwardly appeared to belong to the Bells. Mary Ellen served there as the housekeeper, managing both the household staff and relationships amongst the Bell family.
Victoria Woodhull: Stockbroking and Séances (1838-1927)
Victoria Woodhull and her sister Tennessee Claflin established the first women-owned brokerage firm in 1870. They initiated their enterprise by connecting with railroad magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt offering a “seance” by which they gave him investment advice based on insider information.
Impressed by their acumen, Vanderbilt provided them with financial support to create Woodhull, Claflin, & Co., the first brokerage firm in the U.S. managed by women for women. Before this, women could invest but only through male brokers who charged substantial commissions.
Following this achievement, Victoria and Tennessee founded a newspaper, becoming among the first women to do so. Two years later, Woodhull used the profits from her stockbroking firm to make a historic run for the U.S. Presidency.
Victoria Woodhull was a suffragette who championed women’s freedom to love, marry, divorce, and bear children without societal and government restrictions. She divorced her alcoholic and unfaithful husband, challenging the hypocrisy that tolerated men’s infidelities while forcing women to remain with unbearable spouses.
Hetty Green: The ‘Witch’ of Wall Street (1834-1916)
Hetty Green, once the wealthiest woman in America, was a skilled and disciplined investor known for her no-nonsense approach to finance. Born into a wealthy whaling family, she excelled in mathematics and finance from a young age.
She secured an early example of a prenuptial agreement to keep her finances separate from her husband, Edward Green. He was a speculative investor with an extravagant lifestyle. When Hetty discovered that her husband planned to use $550,000 of her money to cover a loss without her consent, she separated from him. This was groundbreaking at the time, as divorce was very rare.
Her approach to investing was based on a clear strategy and discipline. Hetty practiced a form of value investing, similar to the approach used by modern billionaire investor Warren Buffett. She held onto her shares when others panicked and bought them when they were cheap.
Hetty always maintained a significant cash reserve for lending purposes. During the Bank Panic of 1907, her financial knowledge and investments protected her. She also bailed out New York City along with numerous other investors.
She was a Quaker and despite her substantial wealth lived abstemiously, avoided high society and was known for dressing in black after her husband’s death. Called ”The Queen of Wall Street” by some Hetty is better known as the ”Witch of Wall Street”. A reflection of how her success and appearance were judged by a male-dominated financial world.
A CHANGING LANDSCAPE
The history of female investors has been a long struggle to attain equal access to own, manage, control, and create wealth independently.
There are far fewer female investors compared to men and there’s scant information on the ones that are known about. Writing this post has been challenging! This inequality, particularly affecting women of colour, reflects historical biases, racial disparities, and limited opportunities within the financial world for women.
Today, there are many accomplished female investors and financial professionals contributing significantly to the industry, breaking down the barriers that once restricted them. As we celebrate these forgotten female investors, let their stories inspire us to continue challenging gender and racial biases. And work towards an inclusive, equitable, and balanced financial world where everyone can thrive.

Gilbert Nouno lives and works in Paris as a recording sound artist and a researcher at the Ircam institute.
He teaches electronic music composition at the Jacques Ibert Conservatory. As an electronic musician, he realizes music and art technology for composers like Jonathan Harvey, Brian Ferneyhough, Michaël Levinas, Pierre Boulez or the jazz saxophonist Steve Coleman. He was awarded the Villa Kujoyama Kyoto grant in 2007.
His recent compositional projects include commissions by the Hateyva contemporary music festival in Tel Aviv. Gilbert Nouno has also followed parallel music courses in the Paris Conservatory including Indian classical music with Patrick Moutal, Jazz with Riccardo Del Fra, the class of analysis and composition of the pianist and composer Michaël Levinas. Strongly influenced by plastic and graphic arts, his music reveals a kaleidoscopic and open form of composition, at the edge of writing and improvisation.
Nouno contributed his talent to the 2010 Peace Concert through accompanying other artists in a musical piece with his live electronic design.


Prediction of material failure and fracture behavior
The prediction of material failure and fracture behavior of large components plays a crucial role in many industrial sectors. An example is the lifetime prediction of dams, of railway tires, or of aircrafts.
In the new business area "Meshfree Multiscale Methods" therefore new efficient multi-scale methods are developed. These include meshfree methods such as particle-based multiscale methods and the generalization of finite element methods.
These modern methods are suitable for solving problems in which large changes of geometry and changes of topology occur – for example, large deformations or free surfaces. Since no consistent global mesh generation is necessary in these cases, these methods are superior in comparison with classic mesh-based methods.
One focus of our work is on the development of the partition of unity method – a meshfree generalization of the finite element method. It supports the direct use of problem-dependent enrichment functions. These application-specific basis functions may be given analytically or only as numerical or experimental data. Overall, this approach provides a much better approximation with fewer degrees of freedom.

The Incline Village General Improvement District (IVGID) faced yet another loss in court over its years-long refusal to turn over public records.
The Nevada Public Records Act (NPRA) mandates courts treat public records disputes with priority, but the IVGID case has been tied up in litigation at Washoe County’s Second Judicial Court since 2018.
Incline Village resident Mark Smith in 2017 placed an order for emails between then-IVGID attorney Jason Guinasso and IVGID’s then-general manager. Guinasso said that 13,000 pages of emails were confidential due to attorney-client privilege and 304 pages would cost Smith $1 per page to produce.
Smith filed suit in 2018.
Guinasso’s actions were deemed to violate state public records laws by District Court Judge Lynne Simons.
“Mr. Smith requested to view the documents in their original format. Defendants cannot charge Mr. Smith for the cost of copying because it was their preferred method of organization,” Simons wrote in 2019.
IVGID still protested. The records were ordered to be reviewed by an independent “special master” to determine which records were confidential. That review, by attorney Matthew Sharp, found most of the records to be public, in accordance with public records laws.
“IVGID cannot carry its burden of proof to establish the emails are attorney-client privileged on the mere fact that Mr. Guinasso received an email from IVGID or authored an email to IVGID,” Sharp wrote. “IVGID’s position that any communication between Mr. Guinasso and IVGID that does not include a general member of the public is privileged is also inconsistent with the policy underlying the attorney-client privilege and the NPRA.”
Nevertheless, IVGID persisted. Earlier this year, IVGID’s hired attorney Thomas Beko argued that making attorney emails public would be a hindrance and Sharp was incorrect.
“Without question, Master Sharp reviewed the email communications in a vacuum,” Beko said. “He is wholly unfamiliar with the daily activities of IVGID, and thus he has no way of knowing how the subject of the communication might implicate other matters. Mr. Guinasso had that knowledge, and given the state of the law in Nevada, he felt compelled to withhold the communication or face later arguments of waiver.”
Beko asked the court to reject its own ordered review of the records.
Simons wasn’t buying it.
“The Court does not find IVGID’s Objection meritorious,” she wrote last week. “IVGID cites no authority to suggest the Court cannot accept Master Sharp’s recommendations regarding the scope of attorney-client privilege when the Court specifically referred the matter to Master Sharp to do so considering the lack of case law on the subject.
“The Court finds Master Sharp’s definition of attorney-client privilege does not exceed that defined by this Court in prior orders,” Simons added. “As the Court agrees with Master Sharp’s definition of attorney-client privilege, and as Master Sharp has reviewed the individual records provided to him by applying that definition, the Court finds no error by Master Sharp and affirms and adopts his Recommendation.”
Based on this recent ruling, though, it’s not clear when IVGID will ultimately be forced to comply with the Nevada Public Records Act.
The NPRA also awards compensation to plaintiffs who prevail in public records disputes. Damages could top more than $100,000.

The revamped Sembawang Hot Spring Park opened recently, with droves of visitors turning up hoping to soak their feet and cook some eggs.
Tragedy of the commons
The highlight of the park is a large, circular cascading pool of hot spring water.
Visitors can sit at the edge of the pool and soak their feet in the 40ºC water at the lowest tier of the pool.
As with most communal amenities though, problems are bound to arise.
One Ryan Tyras recently posted a photo of a man who had perhaps taken the idea of a hot spring a tad too literally.
His post has since gone viral, garnering over 1,800 shares and 700 likes.
The man was spotted sitting inside the pool instead of on the bench, with half his body immersed in the water.
Facebook users proceeded to express their disgust and hygiene concerns in various ways.
In his caption, Tyras said that the man had "went overboard" in dipping his entire body in the pool.
He added: "Uncle if you pee inside nobody knows".
Raising questions about hygiene and etiquette
Although the park does not seem to have signs explicitly prohibiting visitors from immersing themselves in the water, a sign beside the pool indicates that it is a "foot bath area"
Illustrations also depict how people can sit on the benches beside the pool to soak their feet.
Other nasty habits spotted at hot spring
This is not the first time questions have been raised about hygiene and etiquette at the hot spring park.
A blog post by one Singaporean recently highlighted how people have been using the park's amenities inappropriately.
These includes not washing one's feet prior to dipping them in the pool. The author believed that the warm temperature will facilitate fungal growth.
The author also observed a man discarding water he had used to soak his feet, into pails intended for cooking eggs.
Perhaps a clear list of Do's and Don'ts at the park might do the trick.

Proponents sued to prevent voters from learning that Proposition 64 would, in effect, end a 45-year ban on smoking ads on television. On that point, and many others, they lost.
What follows is the final wording that the Sacramento Superior Court ordered to appear in the “Argument Against Proposition 64″ in your California Voter Pamphlet – quote – “These marijuana smoking ads can appear during The Olympics, on The Voice, The Big Bang Theory, and hundreds of other programs popular with children and teen viewers. These marijuana smoking ads could be allowed on all broadcast primetime shows, and approximately 95 percent of all broadcast television programming. Children could be exposed to ads promoting marijuana gummy candy and brownies-the same products blamed for a spike in emergency room visits in Colorado.”

RED ALERT — Seller Mortgages May Be Effectively Outlawed…You Must Act NOW!
From THE PAPER SOURCE JOURNAL, July, 2011:
The Federal Reserve, which received sweeping new authority under the Obama regulatory reauthorization, wants to effectively eliminate seller-held (a.k.a. purchase money) mortgages. It will do this by enacting a rule for the Dodd-Frank Act prohibiting property sellers from taking back a mortgage unless the buyer essentially can qualify for conventional financing!
What’s more, Ma and Pa Homeowner, who create 95% of seller-held mortgages, won’t be able to qualify buyers under the same underwriting standards that banks are required to perform, and therefore the cash flow notes won’t be created.
If this is enacted it also will remove access to housing for millions of Americans, because seller “financing” is the only way people who can’t qualify for conventional loans can buy a house.
Moreover, it would allow a buyer a three year right of rescission (they can cancel the sale) if the seller did not properly qualify them. The right of rescission also applies to anyone who buys the note.
We have precious little time to try to stop this. The deadline to comment is FRIDAY, July 22. See the information below, then go to snipurl.com/AbilityToRepay
Please do it TODAY!!
Personal Property Rights trampled- Government has decided YOU are too stupid to enter into an agreement to sell your property to another American offering seller financing, unless you first get a government bureaucrat to “approve”.. What? Socialism’s basic desire is to take away all property rights. This goes beyond all reasonable limits.. and shows just how far this administration intends to push the country into communism- especially when considering the already radical effort to control all aspects of our daily life. We won’t recognize America if we continue to allow this assault on freedom.

Erickson Joins BIO as Director for New Industrial and Environmental Biotechnology Section
Erickson comes to BIO after serving for fours years as environmental representative for the American Petroleum Institute (API). Prior to working at API, Erickson served in the U.S. Senate as legislative director to former Senator and assistant Republican Leader Alan K. Simpson (R-WY). Erickson also worked on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee for the late Senator John Chafee (R-RI).
Industrial biotechnology involves the use of enzymes as catalysts in industrial processes. The substitution of enzymes for traditional industrial chemicals used in manufacturing can produce enormously positive effects for the environment. For example, bio-engineered enzymes to replace toxic chemicals in making such products as indigo dye, which give blue jeans their color.
During Erickson’s tenure as a legislative director he developed expertise in clean air, climate change, fossil fuels, and hazardous waste issues. Prior to working on Capitol Hill Erickson was employed by the Department of Energy’s Laramie Energy Technology Center.
Erickson, originally from Casper, Wyo., earned a B.S. in Biology and an M.A. in International studies from the University of Wyoming. He is also a member of the board of the Western Research Institute, a not-for-profit laboratory and research facility that develops new energy and environmental technologies associated with the University of Wyoming.
BIO represents more than 900 companies, academic institutions and biotech centers in 47 states and 26 nations. BIO members are involved in the research and development of healthcare, agricultural, industrial and environmental products.

- Playful and curious cat
- Sociable and dependent cat
- Quiet cat
- Average build cat breed
- Requires grooming every day
- Non hypoallergenic breed
- Needs some out-door space
- May require familiarisation before living with children
The Cymric cat is a very quiet, playful and intelligent cat. It can be a little shy and reserved around strangers and tends to bond very closely with one individual. It is a breed that seems to keep its kitten-like behaviour well into adulthood.
History and Origins
Country of Origin: Isle of Man (UK)/Canada
The Cymric cat breed is a semi-longhaired version of the Manx cat. Despite its name, which derives from Cymru the Celtic name for Wales, it originates from the Isle of Man. Tailless cats are common on the Isle of Man where inbreeding among the island cats allowed a naturally occurring tailess gene mutation to spread. As for the Manx cat, litters of Cymric kittens can have stumpy tails of various lengths (classed as rumpy-risers, stumpies, and longies) or no tails at all (rumpy). Breeding programmes in Canada in the 1960s lead to popularity of Cymrics in the USA where only completely tailless animals are shown.

Two Norfolk towns to fight for share of £220m funding war chest
- Credit: Aaron McMillan
Two Norfolk towns are set to fight for shares of a £220m war chest of government cash.
At a meeting of Fakenham Town Council on April 20, it was revealed that the town, along with North Walsham, would be put forward for a share of the UK Community Renewal fund.
The scheme, which was set up to replace funding lost as a result of the UK's exit from the European Union, is geared at financing improvements to communities in need of investment.
And Steve Blatch, chief executive of North Norfolk District Council, told the meeting that Fakenham and North Walsham would be the council's nominations for the fund - with the district one of 100 priority areas identified in the scheme..
Mr Blatch said he believes the two towns were ideal candidates due to their growth town status and extensions that are proposed for housing and employment growth.
The maximum that can be funded in any one district is £3m, which would have to be spent by March 2022.
You may also want to watch:
If the towns are successful, it will unlock funding that can be invested in projects to improve employment opportunities.
The funding will not, however, be able to be used for large scale building projects, land purchases or buying equipment.

The council is now forming a steering group to explore project proposals, requesting representatives from councillors.
These include Gilly Foortse and Mark Campbell from the town council. Christopher Cushing and Jeremy Punchard from the district and Tom FitzPatrick as the area’s county councillor.
There will also be figures from business, training, tourism, education, and environmental organisation, which will initially come together and discuss a programme of projects which the community in Fakenham would like to see delivered.
Mr Campbell has been working on the development of new sporting facilities which could see itself being fast-tracked if they have access to the funding.
Proposals need to be submitted to the county council by May 14, which will then decide or agree which projects have the best chance across the four priority areas of Norfolk.
There will then be a period of a further four weeks in which the bids can be strengthened or finalised into a full package that needs to be submitted to the government by June 18.

If there is no chimney, only low-quality aluminum sheet metal can be produced, with severe slag inclusion bubbles inside, Because the waste gas and slag are all melted in aluminum water.
2,Alloy elements: the primary equipment element of aluminum alloy is that in the process of making aluminum alloy, the content proportion of aluminum, magnesium and silicon elements has a serious plan, and these contents directly affect the quality of aluminum sheet metal alloy.
In the continuous application of aluminum sheet metal grades, promoting the development of society, Haomei aluminum produces and supplies aluminum sheet metal with grades of 1000 series to 8000 series, moreover the cost is lower than other manufacturers.
