Author: Laura Ingalls Wilder
The Little House books, and the many series and prequels that followed, were a staple of my childhood. Memories almost as old as myself have me tucked in bed, with my mother reading of Laura and Mary’s adventures (and later Rose’s) and cross-country moves had me snuggled in hotel beds taking advantage of that wondrous cable to watch the adaption mini-series. Prowling through Barnes and Noble with the boyfriend, swearing I would buy nothing, I ran into a lovely leather bound edition including the first give novels in the series along with original artwork by Garth Williams. I, of course, caved to nostalgia and bought it.
As pretty much everyone knows, the Little House series begins in 1871 and contains the sometimes desperate, often cozy, stories of a pioneer family as they live off the land and move westward with the rush. The story is told from the prospective of Laura, the middle daughter, who loves playing with her corncob doll, thrills to her Pa’s stories of the wild woods, and is quite a bit jealous of her older sister with the golden curls. Little House in the Big Woods is the first novel in the series (which is actually quite autobiographical – but let’s not nitpick over genre just yet). The story starts with a very young Laura who lives in a cabin in the Big Woods near Lake Pepin, Wisconsin. This is before the family begins to move farther west, and depicts the harsh winters with their beautiful yet perilous snow falls; the trials of gathering food and hunting; the joys of visiting relatives; the treasure of Pa’s fiddle and singing by the fire; and above all the wonder at life as seen through a child’s eyes.
Other books in the series approach more difficult themes: danger on the Prairie, death, hardship, poverty, etc. Little House in the Big Woods is more concentrated on the cozy aspect of a hard working life and oscillates between describing the hard manual labor of Laura’s and her family’s life and the rewards of family time, the festivities of Maple gathering, and the joys of handmade Christmas presents. There are many sequences concentrated on Pa’s hunting adventures and the butchering of animals in preparation for the long winter. The story, at this juncture, is more about atmosphere and establishing character. As the girls grow older, subsequent books reveal more danger while still keeping the theme established here and the homey quality of the narrative.
Back when I was a child and first discovering reading, the main point of any book was the pictures, and I lamented over those “boring adult books” with only words. I would spend hours pouring over the Little House illustrations in my mother’s vintage 1970s set of books with the original pictures included. Done in a charcoal like etching (although I believe colorized versions are available as well) the illustrations capture the mood of the novel and make readers feel in the action and attached to this family who, over time, feels like an extension of our family. I highly recommend (ok, no, insist) that readers find editions with illustrations since these are one of the most enjoyable and unique elements of the series, always sure to entertain children and adults alike.
The writing, while simple enough for the understanding of a child (if not their limited reading skills) is lush and descriptive yet homey, conversational, and very much an echo of a child’s mind. Descriptions of snows, dances, and the woods blooming into spring captivate as though we are seeing them all for the first time, and the freshness of the narrative inspires a matching wonder of the world in the reader.
As a child I adored this series; as an adult it still doesn’t disappoint and I fell back into the cozy aura of the Ingalls family. Highly recommended!

Why is America in trouble? September 11 was a traumatic event that shook the nation to its core. But it would not have changed the course of history for the worse if President Bush had not responded as he did. Declaring war on terrorism was understandable, perhaps even appropriate, as a figure of speech. The problem is that President Bush meant it literally.
I believe there is a direct connection between this and the abuse of detainees by US soldiers in Abu Ghraib prison. What happened at Abu Ghraib was not a case of a few bad apples, but a pattern tolerated and even encouraged by American authorities. For example, the Judge Advocate General Corps routinely observes military interrogations from behind a two-way mirror; that practice was discontinued in Afghanistan and Iraq. The International Red Cross and others started complaining about abuses as early as December 2002.

Believe the hype!
I have many visual artist friends who have considered the internet a double edged sword. For one, it makes it easier to show off their work to a global audience. But on the other hand, they risk losing ownership of their work because anyone can just “right click + save” their digital art and reproduce it freely.
For the longest time digital ownership was a conundrum—if it’s online, you can forget about ownership. But something peculiar happened in the past few months. You might have heard of the rise of NFT’s or NFT art pieces. The acronym NFT means “non fungible token” and if that sounds complicated, let me explain it in other means.
A “fungible” token is something that can be exchanged or switched and it won’t matter. If both of us have P1,000 and we switch, it won’t matter which bill we get. Now a “non-fungible” token refers to things that are unique. Your birth certificate is non-fungible. Your bank account is non-fungible. In the art scene, a NFT is a way to “mint” your art work so that no matter how many copies goes around the Internet, you can still trace everything back to the original creator. Which means that you can technically “own” a piece of digital art. It’s very similar to having the EXIF data on your camera to prove that the photo is an original, but in this case an NFT is a series of code stored in a digital ledger (or a blockchain for those familiar with cryptocurrencies).
No longer starving artists
The art world was recently taken by storm when digital artist Beeble sold a piece of NFT art for $69 million. In the Philippines, Luis Buenaventura recently sold 222 editions of one of his artworks for $1,999 each. Video game artist Shelly Soneja has also shared her experience with NFT art and how it helped her pay bills and donate to typhoon relief efforts. Digital artists now have a way to own their art work and sell them to patrons. The interesting thing is that whenever a piece of art is sold in the secondary or tertiary market, the original artist will always automatically get a commission from the sale. This is the huge benefit of NFT to the art community because its nature is to attribute ownership to the source.
NFT for the masses
I was talking to Jowee Alviar of Team Manila and he told me that there seems to be a barrier of entry for the mass market when it comes to buying and selling NFT art.
He says that you have three conditions that spell success.
First, you absolutely need to be a collector of art to catch wind of these things. Second, you need to be familiar with cryptocurrencies, specifically Ethereum (ETH) since this is where NFT is based. Buyers are usually early-game crypto rich in ETH. Lastly, if you are an artist, you need to have made a name for yourself online: for instance, people like Luis Buenaventura aka “Cryptopop!” have been successful documenting the rise and fall of crypto exchange rates, mostly Bitcoin, with pop culture mash-ups.
It’s quite interesting that Team Manila is also starting a NFT art collection, which you can check out at rarible.com/teammanila which is launching today at noon.
Because Team Manila is already a recognizable name in the local design and art scene, they want to venture into new grounds by telling the story of the Philippines to the world by minting several series of NFT art. Its first release is a Philippine Genesis Coin, which only has one iteration and will only be available for bidding. Its second release is a series of the Rizal Gold Coin, which will have 20 editions.
I asked him what he thinks of the current bubble bloating in NFT art pricing and Alviar says that crypto-rich collectors are not thinking in dollars. They’ve accumulated a lot of ETH through trading and mining so they’re looking at it as an apples-to-apples trade. He says, however, that Team Manila wants to make NFT art accessible to Filipinos so the Rizal Gold Coin won’t be priced high.
“I want to establish our sovereignty as a country and the minting is symbolic because there can only be one owner,” Alviar explains.

Hello crafty friends!
Today I want to share a baby card with you I made for a friend who is expecting! When I first saw the Special Delivery stamp set I got the idea to use it for a baby card and that the bird or owl could deliver the baby! I mean… the stork needs a vacation too every now and again, right? haha The colors were inspired by the amazing Mindy Eggen! She created a card for the Lawn Fawn Design Team and her background was just soooo dreamy! I had to recreate it!
So I really hope you like it! This is also my entry for the current Lawnfawnatics “Outstanding Occasions” challenge!
If you would like to see how I made this card just click on the video below or just keep reading!
First, I stamped my images onto Neenah cardstock and colored them using Copic markers. Then, they were cut out using the Brother Scan’n’Cut
I ink blended the background with Distress Oxide Inks (see color map below for the exact colors) and I also added lots of splatters for more interest!
I die cut a scalloped card panel from white cardstock, then layered a slightly smaller red rectangle on top and then attached both to a slimline card base. After that I added the ink blended panel. I also die cut some puffy cloud frames in white and adhered them to the background. Then I added all my images with liquid glue and foam squares. I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto a red cardstock and cut it into little strips and added them to the card.
Finally, to embellish the card I added shimmer pen, Crystal Glaze and Stickles, as well as some iridescent jewels!
Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!

Unlike conventional Ji Infantry, the heavier version of these units do not merely lose their mobility and cost for greater durability, but they also carry a bigger punch, thanks to their elite status - only veteran units in Chinese armies are issued with armour.
Pre-20th century Chinese armies predominantly used four classes of melee weapons, which were the Dao (sabre), Qiang (spear), Jian (sword) and Ji.
Of these, the Ji was a weapon unique to China, being a polearm with a steel or bronze tip mounted on the end of a long shaft, next to which is attached a curved blade. Because of the attachment of the curved blade, the weapon can be used to both stab and slash.
The Ji was first used during the Shang Dynasty (17th-11th centuries BCE), when it was made of bronze. It was popularized during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770-256BCE), when it was made of steel instead. Conflict with the nomadic tribes of Mongolia and Siberia soon resulted in the Ji being replaced by Qiang-type spears as well as other polearms.

Dextromethorphan HBr 10 mg
Dextromethorphan (DXM or DM) is an antitussive (cough suppressant) drug. It is one of the active ingredients in many over-the-counter cold and cough medicines, such as Robitussin, NyQuil, Dimetapp, Vicks, Coricidin, Delsym, and others, including generic labels. Dextromethorphan has also found other uses in medicine, ranging from pain relief to psychological applications. It is sold in syrup, tablet, spray, and lozenge forms. In its pure form, dextromethorphan occurs as a white powder. DXM is also used recreationally. When exceeding label-specified maximum dosages, dextromethorphan acts as a dissociative hallucinogen. Its mechanism of action is via multiple effects, including actions as a nonselective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and a sigma-1 receptor agonist and the action of its major metabolite dextrorphan as an NMDA receptor antagonist, producing effects similar to those of the controlled substances ketamine and phencyclidine (PCP), as well as the active metabolite 3-methoxymorphinan, which produces local anesthetic effects in rats with a potency above dextrorphan but below dextromethorphan itself. Contents [hide] 1 Medical use 2 Recreational use 3 Adverse effects 3.1 Contraindications 3.2 Drug interactions 3.3 Food interactions 3.4 Lab Testing 4 Chemistry 5 Pharmacology 5.1 Pharmacodynamics 5.2 Pharmacokinetics 5.3 Metabolism 6 History 7 See also 8 References 9 External links  Medical useThe primary use of dextromethorphan is as a cough suppressant, for the temporary relief of cough caused by minor throat and bronchial irritation (such as commonly accompanies the flu and common cold), as well as those resulting from inhaled irritants. A 2004 study showed that dextromethorphan was no more effective for children than a placebo. Studies conducted by the American Academy of Pediatrics show that dextromethorphan is not superior to a placebo in providing nocturnal symptom relief for children with cough and sleep difficulty due to upper respiratory infections. In addition, a combination of dextromethorphan and quinidine has been shown to alleviate symptoms of easy laughing and crying (pseudobulbar affect) in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis. Dextromethorphan is also being investigated as a possible treatment for neuropathic pain and pain associated with fibromyalgia. On October 29, 2010 The FDA approved the combination product (Nuedexta) manufactured by Avanir pharmaceutical corporation for the treatment of pseudobulbar affect (PBA).  Recreational use Dextromethorphan gel capsulesMain article: Recreational use of dextromethorphan Since their introduction, over-the-counter preparations containing dextromethorphan have been used in manners inconsistent with their labeling, often as a recreational drug. At doses higher than medically recommended, dextromethorphan is classified as a dissociative hallucinogen. Certain effects that are similar to the dissociative agents ketamine and phencyclidine (PCP). It can produce distortions of the visual field - feelings of dissociation, distortions of bodily perception, excitement, as well as a loss of sense of time. Some users report stimulant-like euphoria. Dextromethorphan usually provides its recreational effects in a non-linear fashion, so that they are experienced in significantly varied stages. These stages are commonly referred to as "plateaus."   Adverse effectsSide-effects of dextromethorphan use can include: At normal doses: Sudden infant death syndrome  body rash/itching (see below) nausea drowsiness dizziness Closed-eye hallucination Difficulty breathing At dosages 12.5 to 75 times the recommended therapeutic dose: hallucinations disassociation vomiting blurred vision bloodshot eyes dilated pupils sweating fever bruxia hypertension shallow respiration diarrhea urinary retention Dextromethorphan can also cause other gastrointestinal disturbances. Dextromethorphan had been thought to cause Olney's Lesions when administered intravenously; however, this was later proven inconclusive, due to lack of research on humans. Tests were performed on rats, giving them 50 mg and up every day up to a month. Neurotoxic changes, including vacuolation, have been observed in posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortices of rats administered other NMDA antagonists such as PCP, but not with dextromethorphan. In many documented cases, dextromethorphan has produced psychological dependence in people who used it recreationally. However, it does not produce physical addiction, according to the WHO Committee on Drug Dependence.  ContraindicationsBecause dextromethorphan can trigger a histamine release (allergic reaction), atopic children, who are especially susceptible to allergic reactions, should be administered dextromethorphan only if absolutely necessary, and only under the strict supervision of a healthcare professional.  Drug interactionsDextromethorphan should not be taken with Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or Serotonin reuptake inhibitors (like SSRIs and SNRIs) due to the potential for serotonin syndrome, which is a potentially life-threatening condition that can occur rapidly, due to a buildup of an excessive amount of serotonin in the body.  Food interactionsCaution should be exercised when taking dextromethorphan when drinking grapefruit juice or eating grapefruits, as compounds in grapefruit affect a number of drugs, including dextromethorphan, through the cytochrome p450 system in the liver.  Lab TestingTesting for this drug is done either by blood or by urine. Blood can be either serum or plasma, serum in a plain red top 2mL preferred. Urine requires only 2mL minimum.  ChemistryDextromethorphan is the dextrorotatory enantiomer of levomethorphan, which is the methyl ether of levorphanol, both opioid analgesics. It is named according to IUPAC rules as (+)-3-methoxy-17-methyl-9a,13a,14a-morphinan. As the pure free base, dextromethorphan occurs as an odorless, white to slightly yellow crystalline powder. It is freely soluble in chloroform and insoluble in water. Dextromethorphan is commonly available as the monohydrated hydrobromide salt, however some newer extended-release formulations contain dextromethorphan bound to an ion exchange resin based on polystyrene sulfonic acid. Dextromethorphan's specific rotation in water is +27.6Â° (20 Â°C, Sodium D-line).

When the Maschinenfabrik Oerlikon factory building in Zurich, Switzerland was about to be torn down by owner ABB, the Swiss public petitioned to have it saved by relocating it almost 200 feet west of its original location. But how exactly do you move a 123-year-old building? Easy: with hydraulic pumps.
Like a tree uprooted and planted into fresh soil, Swiss Prime Site, Swiss Federal Railways and ABB came together to move the factory last May. According to World Architecture News, the 6,200-ton building's basement walls were first replaced with steel pillars. A concrete plate with tracks was then built under the building and the entire structure placed on "specially-created carriages." (See photos here.)
On moving day, hydraulic presses moved the building on six tracks at four meters per hour until it reached its new location. The entire process took 19 hours over the course of two days to complete. You can see a time-lapse of the building scooching over below. It's not something you'll see everyday, that's for sure. Imagine waking up the next day and seeing that a familiar building is now a couple of blocks down the street. That's crazy.

Overview of the AI Chip Market
The AI chip sector, as elucidated by Ken Lau, CEO of Neuchips, in a recent interaction with DIGITIMES, is undergoing significant transformation. While Nvidia currently dominates the supply of general-purpose GPUs predominantly for AI training, the market for AI inference presents a broader array of chip alternatives.
Established in 2019 and headquartered in Taiwan, Neuchips has carved a niche in developing solutions optimized for AI inference. These solutions are geared towards reduced power consumption and memory usage, simultaneously shrinking the chip’s physical dimensions. The primary objective of Neuchips is to offer unparalleled flexibility to its clientele, catering to diverse market requirements.
Innovations in Chip Design
The quest for designing energy-efficient chips that also possess minimal memory consumption demands extensive circuit design expertise and allocation of software resources. In this context, Neuchips’ 8-bit Flexible Floating-Point (FFP 8) format serves as a key differentiator. This innovative format ensures computational precision approximating FP16, but with data storage restricted to 8-bit. As a result, Neuchips achieves the remarkable feat of halving memory bandwidth utilization (8-bit) while maintaining precision akin to a 16-bit system.
Market Dynamics and Inference Chips
The AI chip industry, particularly the inference subset, remains in a dynamic state. A segment of the market gravitates towards Nvidia’s premium computing solutions. In contrast, prominent cloud service providers demonstrate a predilection for custom-developed AI inference chips. The overarching goal for Neuchips is to enable clients to strike a balance between hardware cost and energy efficiency, championing solutions characterized by lower memory requirements.
Cost-Effective AI Chip Solutions
Deploying premium chips universally for AI inference tasks doesn’t emerge as a cost-effective strategy. The endeavor to design chips in-house demands substantial time and resource investments, a route typically pursued by industry heavyweights. Consequently, there is an anticipated surge in demand for economically viable AI chips, specifically tailored for cloud computing applications.
Neuchips in the AI Ecosystem
There exists a strong conviction in the capabilities of Neuchips’ solutions. It is postulated that Neuchips’ AI chips can harmoniously coexist alongside ASICs conceived by top-tier cloud service entities. The rationale behind this coexistence is twofold: cost considerations and the burgeoning diversity in AI inference requirements. It is anticipated that leading companies would integrate Neuchips’ ASICs with other solutions in tandem, optimizing both cost and functionality.
Positioning in the AI Inference Chip Market
Although numerous contenders have ventured into the AI inference chip arena, the count of those who have successfully materialized functional chips remains constricted. Given this scenario, Neuchips is poised to establish a competitive advantage in the market landscape.


A Republican bill on Thursday banning sanctuary policies that protect undocumented immigrants has passed in the Florida Legislature. This bill will require law enforcement officials to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. It will further ensure local officials honor U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainers for undocumented immigrants arrested or convicted of a crime.
Local governments will not be allowed to create sanctuary policies to protect those immigrants from deportation and require them to notify ICE when an inmate subject to a detainer is released.
The bill passed the House on a 68-45 vote with Democrats opposed, shortly after it cleared the Senate by a 22-18 mostly party-line vote, as the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reported.
Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has supported the measure and is expected to sign it into law.
He stated, “We are a stronger state when we protect our residents, foster safe communities and respect the work of law enforcement at every level.”
Rep. Elizabeth Fetterhoff, R-DeLand, says the bill is not an anti-immigrant bill and would be dangerous to make such an assumption. She goes on to remind some in this nation who have forgotten, America is a nation of immigrants, but also one with laws.
Protests from the American Civil Liberties Union warn immigrants against traveling to Florida. The group is expected to lead a lawsuit with hopes to stop the bill. Of course, there are outcries from all over the state regarding the ban.
If I were from Florida, I would celebrate that dangerous illegal aliens will now avoid coming to my state. If this bill succeeds and is passed into law, Florida just became a little safer, and that ‘s a good thing.
I am interested to see how many states will follow Florida in the Sanctuary city ban. I am also curious as to whether the states which have Sanctuary cities, will soon be dropping their Sanctuary city policy.

Today, I have the fabulous “Wing Hangar” from Osanori Yamamoto. This is another piece produced recently by Jakub over at Pelikan Puzzles. It’s a wonderful puzzle with only 3 pieces, but don’t be deceived, it’s a bit tricky. As with all Pelikan puzzles, this piece is a work of art and it is a joy to play with.
The puzzle consists of Mahogany outer box and two (in my case) Wenge Burr pieces, But Tthe puzzle also came in a Mahogany/Purpleheart variation. I’m a sucker for Wenge, and thus am very happy with the variant that I chose.
My thoughts while initially playing with the puzzler were as follows:
“Ok, so I’ve been playing with this puzzle for about an hour and I haven’t gotten anywhere. I thought this one was going to be easy. There’s only 2 pieces, there can’t possibly be that many options, yet here I sit, unable to get the 2 pieces into the box.”
This puzzle gave me some trouble to begin with.
“I think they made a good call sending this one out unassembled – it is proving to be a good challenge. The difficulty lies in not knowing the orientation of the pieces – and the pictures on the Pelikan website don’t help. If I don’t have the orientation correct, then I’m spending time working on an impossible solution. Up to this point I haven’t gotten systematic with it yet either.”
This puzzle took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to put together. I didn’t clock it, but I definitely worked on this for numerous hours over numerous days. And once I solved it, I put it on the shelf and moved on to another. It was many days later that I finally returned to Wing Hangar.
When I finally did return, I found that now, I couldn’t disassemble it. What the heck? I had put it together, surely I could now remove the pieces. I tried over and over and just when I thought I was making progress, I’d realize that I just completed a loop and was back where I started. Frustrated, I put the puzzle back on the shelf for another day.
Today, I had a little time and a little more focus and decided once and for all to conquer this puzzle. And sure enough, not 20 minutes later, I had the pieces out and not only that, I had an understanding of how it works. I took some pictures and then was able to quickly assemble the puzzle again. Now I’m left wondering why the heck this one took me so long to solve and understand.
It’s interesting to me because I’ve experienced varying degrees of success when solving puzzles and I largely attribute my performance to my mental state at the time. Sometimes, I’m just in the zone and all my focus is on the puzzle and I seem to do well in those moments, but other times, I just can’t seem to get anywhere. Clearly I need time and space to perform my best because if there are distractions, or a looming obligation, then I don’t seem to have the required focus.
Also, solving puzzles can be mentally exhausting and I don’t always feel like putting myself through the mental anguish. A lot of nights, I do have the time, but I don’t have the focus. Either way, I’m going to continue to solve puzzles when “the time is right” and try not to force anything. I don’t want this hobby to become a job.

Coconut Lemongrass is fruity, beachy, with just a little bit of zip that keeps it from being overly sweet. The herbal lemongrass balances out the sweet coconut, which alone might smell like a fruity rum drink - but together they blend into something a little enigmatic. Makes you think of cool nights on a beach, where a bit of the island breeze carries with it the scent of grasses!
The base of this soap has a creamy, custard color to it; but some fragrances - especially those containing vanilla - can cause the soap to darken to a tan or even a dark brown. I try to wait until this begins to happen to photograph the soap so that you are aware of what you are getting; however, it does get darker over time so your soap, upon arrival, may be darker than photographed.
A great gift for that yarn lover in your life, if you don't know what kind of yarn to give them (although here's a hint: yarn lovers just flat out love yarn - all yarn!). Many knitters and crocheters keep these bars in their project bags so that their yarn smells extraordinary.

Tuesday, the US government directed state to expand who is getting vaccinated for COVID-19, and announced that all available doses will be distributed to states instead of holding back a reserve of follow-up doses.
Under the policy changes outlined by Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, states should begin vaccinating anyone 65 and older and those under 65 who have underlying health conditions that put them at increasing risk of severe COVID-19 symptoms.
In Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis already had expanded eligibility to those 65 and older with the Seniors First campaign, though demand for shots has far outstripped the supply.
States also are urged to expand the sites being used for vaccinations, and will see their allocation of doses change. The number of vaccine doses sent to states each week will no longer be based on population, but rather on the pace of vaccine administration and the number of residents 65 and older.
“Every vaccine dose that is sitting in a warehouse rather than going into an arm could mean one more life lost or one more hospital bed occupied,” Azar told reporters.
The shift in federal policy guidance comes amid frustrations over the slow rollout of vaccinations as case counts and deaths from COVID-19 hit new highs. Instead of the 20 million doses that Trump administration officials had estimated could be administered by the end of 2020, that tally was just over 3 million.
State officials also have expressed exasperation at changing figures on the amount of vaccines they will receive each week.
Azar said Tuesday that the decision to release all available doses was made due to increased confidence that pharmaceutical manufacturers will be able to produce enough doses to keep up with demand.
That effort has distributed more than 25 million doses to states, according to HHS officials and tracking data compiled by Bloomberg News. Of that figure, just 9 million vaccine doses have been administered.
Asked about that gap and why some states have done better than others at getting doses administered, Azar said there has been “variable performance” across states. Some focused too much on vaccinating all of their health care workers and long-term care facilities residents — the first priority group for vaccines — before broadening eligibility.
Azar also blamed data issues for the gap in doses sent versus injected, saying some states have had issues with getting their information sent through the federal system. For vaccination programs, states typically have 30 days to report their data, but are instructed to report COVID-19 vaccine data within just 72 hours.
This report first appeared on the website of the Florida Phoenix, a nonprofit news organization dedicated to coverage of state government and politics from Tallahassee.

Baker Hughes annual meeting: DOE official tries to calm LNG furor
(WO) - During the first day of the Baker Hughes Annual Meeting on Monday in Florence, Italy, a U.S. DOE official tried to explain the Biden administration’s sudden move to stop issuing LNG export licenses. Supposedly, the action was taken on Jan. 26, to give the administration time to analyze how LNG shipments affect climate change, the economy and national security.
But many industry entities and Biden critics in general have criticized the ban heavily, noting that any moratorium lasting more than a few days is likely to disrupt plans for billions of dollars in projects along the U.S. coastline. They describe Biden’s action as nothing more than an election-year ploy to hold onto the President’s climate change adherents at the ballot box in the fall. How convenient, they say, that this moratorium on new LNG export licenses could delay decisions on new plants until after the Nov. 5 election. And, they point to the disruption this could cause to U.S. LNG exports continuing to replace Russian natural gas supplies in much of Europe.
Addressing the ban at Baker Hughes’ annual meeting. So, fast-forward to Monday morning’s panel at the Baker Hughes Annual Meeting entitled, “Ministerial Panel Discussion: Is Global Governance the Solution for the Energy Trilemma?” This was a panel discussion intended to discuss how governmental policies around the world are adapting to accelerate the achievement of energy transition targets. But that didn’t stop panel moderator Dan Murphy (a CNBC anchor and correspondent based in the UAE) from asking one of the panel participants, Assistant DOE Secretary for Fossil Energy and Carbon Management, Brad Crabtree (Fig. 1), for an explanation of the LNG controversy.
Dazzling the crowd with facts and statistics. At first, Crabtree tried to deflect the question by going through a litany of U.S. natural gas achievements and statistics. “let me start by taking a just a short step back,” he explained, “and recognize the absolutely essential role for gasoline in the energy security and national security of our European countries and allies and around the world, and especially following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. As a new source of gas on the market, the U.S. natural gas industry stepped into the breach and, I would argue, helped underwrite political and economic stability in Europe and other parts of the world. I take that first step very seriously, as do my colleagues at the Department of Energy and others in the Biden administration. It's also important, though, and bear with me, because this is not just for me, because you're not going to just walk through where we're really at with natural gas production and exports in the United States. You all in this audience know that one of the most consequential and transformative things to occur, probably in the history of energy, is the shale gas revolution in the United States. In the early part of the last decade, we were poised to become a natural gas importer. And then we started exporting natural gas in 2016. By 2018, we had export capacity of 4 Bcfd, or around 40 MMm³ per year. Now, our export capacity stands at 14 Bcfd. Today, we're a little over 140 MMm³ per year. We're exporting well.
And then, there were more statistics. Obviously not satisfied that he had dazzled the audience with details of U.S. natural gas exports, Crabtree continued. “We have authorized export additional exports of 12 Bcfd, or over 120 MMm³ per year. It will come online between now and 2030. That is essentially a doubling of our current production and exports today that will be going to our overseas markets. On top of that, we have authorized an additional 20 Bcfd, or over 200 Bm3 per year for exports that do not yet have a financial investment decision. The total volume of authorized exports in the United States is 48 Bcfd, or over. Again, it's a little bit more than 480 MMm³. To put that in context, that's about 45% of our domestic natural gas production that's already authorized for export...We were very careful to make sure that our decision did not affect intermediate-term exports and infrastructure that will come online in the next two years. Our situation is that we have had the most rapid, dramatic expansion in natural gas production and exports, probably in history.
More reasons to “be responsible.” Crabtree commented on the pause further. “From five years ago, we are duty-bound as a regulator to make sure that we're using the most up to date information our national labs are working with us, and we will make it in a few months’ time, that analysis is available for public comment. That is not just limited to public comment in the United States. Our allies, both in government and industry around the world, can feel free to provide comment. It will be a robust analysis. I actually believe that it will serve the industry well. In terms of responding to criticism, whether it's about domestic pricing in the United States or climate implications of our exports, it is a sense of responsibility to our domestic consumers, and we have a special role as the world's largest oil and gas producer/exporter to take our findings and obligations very seriously.
So, what will be assessed? But Murphy would not be deterred. “So, help me understand what exactly will be assessed in the public interest here, because U.S. LNG, we know, is markedly cleaner than coal and oil, for example, which is why critics have said this is a shortsighted decision.” This line of questioning seemed to cause discomfort for Crabtree, who looked like he was composing his answers on the fly and not feeling very comfortable doing it.
“So, we will look at domestic and international economic impacts, explained Crabtree. “We will substantively look at energy security and national security implications. And then of course, environment. And in the case of environment, it's both greenhouse gas emissions and local and upstream environmental impacts. And these those factors are what we apply in determining whether additional exports are in the national interest. So that's the process that becomes the analysis that we're updating.
What should the industry think? Ever tenacious, Murphy then asked Crabtree, “And just finally, what's your message to the industry and those who say this decision undermines the ability and willingness to invest in the sector and jeopardizes national security? And it sends a message, finally, to America's friends and allies that they can no longer rely on the U.S., particularly given this uptick in regulatory uncertainty that we now see coming into.
“Well, let's take the last first,” said Crabtree. “As a matter of fact of where we're at in our domestic production and exports, and where we are going to. We are playing the biggest role in the world in terms of providing products to the global marketplace. That has not changed so much in terms of the energy security of the United States or our allies. It's unaffected. Now, I recognize in the administration that for those projects that are in the development pipeline, they don't even have the permits from our Federal Energy Regulatory Commission before they can come to the Department of Energy. They are faced with more uncertainty, and that's why they're there. This is a pause while we update our analysis. It's not a ban. And I want to make that very clear. That's the position of my Secretary, and it's also in a statement from the White House that we are pausing in our analysis, and our authorizations, to update our analysis, so we can be more responsible, with informed decisions from an economic environmental potential.
Final thoughts. After all of that back-and-forth between Murphy and Crabtree, one could not fault the audience from looking a bit fatigued. And this editor found himself still musing as to the real motivation for Biden pausing LNG export licensing.

Phase 2 Clinical Trial Pipeline Insights
To provide more clarity, Paolo Capogrosso, MD, of the University Vita-Salute San Raffaele, in Milan, Italy, and his colleagues assessed the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of 439 men seeking medical help for newly-developed erectile dysfunction
between January 2010 and June 2012 at a single academic outpatient clinic.
In the only good published study, 30 Korean men with erectile dysfunction
who took 1,800 mg of Korean red ginseng every day for three months were more likely to report greater sexual desire and erectile function than 30 similar men who took a placebo.
The average Hamilton Depression rating scale score also significantly improved to a mean of 6 among the 58 men whose erectile dysfunction
had responded to treatment.
Identify and understand important and diverse types of therapeutics under development for Erectile Dysfunction
A man with erectile dysfunction
should not be seen by a urologist, but by a cardiologist," according to Dr.
Licensing Activities / Partnerships in the Global Erectile Dysfunction
Treatment of phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors shows insufficient effectiveness in the treatment of post-prostatectomy ED and it is believed that the transplantation of stem cells cultivated on the surface of nanofibrous meshes can promote cavernous neuronal regeneration and repair erectile dysfunction
While previous studies have shown that men with severe erectile dysfunction

1. Final Report Summary - DIMAS (Deficit irrigation for Mediterranean agricultural systems)
Record Control Number:
Quality Validation Date:
Abstract: Irrigation utilises approximately 80 % of the entire water consumption in the Mediterranean basin. This excessive freshwater consumption has to be reduced because of the increased demand for other uses and the apparent water scarcity in the region. The objective of the DIMAS project was to evaluate the concept of deficit irrigation (DI) as a means of reducing irrigation water use while maintaining or increasing farmers' profits.
Multidisciplinary research with various crops at different geographic locations and numerous scales was implemented to achieve the project objectives. The consortium members included research institutions and water associations of seven different countries which contributed expertise in the fields of water management, modelling, agricultural economics, sociology, rural development, irrigation agronomy, crop eco-physiology, irrigation engineering, soil science and geo-information. DIMAS participants focussed on the following activities:
1. development of a general summary of crop yield as a function of water supply
2. validation of a model for the main irrigated annual and perennial crops using common research protocols
3. elaboration of a survey on physical, socioeconomic and cultural conditions for each crop and irrigated area and
4. technology scale-up through combination of the yield model with economic optimisation modules that generated promising results for the specific conditions of each area under study.
The efforts in developing a new simulation model were based on lines initiated by the United Nations' Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO). The model was accessible online by all project members and the general public, upon request. Field experiments were carried out to provide data for the model validation under varying water stress. The crops that were analysed included wheat, sunflower, cotton, olive, pistachio and citrus, representing the most common products of Mediterranean agriculture.
A workable, comprehensive set of DI practices and recommendations was therefore developed and disseminated among the various agricultural systems to ensure the sustainability of the applied practices. Feedback from the project end users was expected to be provided via the participation of farmers' associations and irrigation water agencies. It was anticipated that the proposed strategies would be useful towards a more rational exploitation of water resources with respective reduction of environmental problems. Finally, DIMAS attempted to increase the applicability of the proposed innovations to the agriculture industry, thereby contributing to sustainable development in the sector.

A bill that would reduce the length of time design patents would apply to exterior collision parts is being considered again in both the U.S. House and Senate Judiciary Committees.
In late April, the Promoting Automotive Repair, Trade and Sales Act of 2013 (PARTS)
was reintroduced in both chambers of Congress by Senate Judiciary Committee Members Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), and House Judiciary Committee Members Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) and Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.).
"This bipartisan bill is aimed at helping Americans who depend on their cars to be safe, reliable and on the road so they can get their kids to school and drive to work every day,” Rep. Lofgren said in a prepared statement. "By increasing fair competition in the auto parts market, consumers will ultimately benefit by getting the best value for their dollar when they need to shop for safe, high quality replacement car parts to keep their cars running."
The bills would amend U.S. patent law by lowering the time period car companies can enforce design patents on collision repair parts against alternative and aftermarket suppliers from 14 years to 2.5 years. Before the enforcement period ended, aftermarket suppliers could manufacture, test, market and distribute those parts pre-sale without violating the patents.
Lofgren first introduced a version of the bill back in 2008 after the International Trade Commission ruled in favor of Ford Motor Co.'s complaint that Keystone Automotive Industries, U.S. Auto Parts, and a number of Taiwanese manufacturers had violated portions of the Tariff Act of 1930 by importing aftermarket parts for the F-150.

The Internet of things or better known as IoT is the concept of devices or, in this particular case, known as “Things.” These are interrelated and interconnected as a network in order to connect and exchange data within the network. So what exactly is the difference between “The Internet” and “The Internet of Things”? Ironically IoT is a subset of the Internet. This means the Internet of things exists within the Internet itself. The technical term for the general Internet that we use is the Internet of Everything or IoE, which implies the superiority of the Internet over the Internet of Things.
IoT targets specifically physical components or things, while IoE targets almost everything connected to the network, including liveware or the users. The birth of IoT is marked as the early 2000s or the late 90s. The more time passes, IoT becomes closer to our lives. And that is why IoT security has become a significant concern among cybersecurity experts. Giant tech companies have been throwing money at researches focused on IoT security. Even though today’s world experiences an enormous amount of cyber protection, we can not apply the same methods for IoT security.
In the book “Practical Internet of Things Security” by Brian Russell and Drew Van Duren, it is explained to its fullest.
“IoT security is not traditional cybersecurity, but a fusion of cybersecurity with other engineering disciplines. It addresses much more than mere data, servers, network infrastructure, and information security. Rather, it includes the direct or distributed monitoring and/or control of the state of physical systems connected over the Internet. In other words, a large element of what distinguishes the IoT from cybersecurity is what many industry practitioners today refer to as cyber-physical systems. Cybersecurity, if you like that term at all, generally does not address the physical and security aspects of the hardware device or the physical world interactions it can have.” (Brian and Drew, 2016).
“The Internet of Things (IoT) is a general term describing any device used to collect data from the world around us and then share that data across the Internet where the data can be intelligently processed to provide information and services. This definition can be extended to an industrial closed-loop control system where data is acquired, coalesced with related data, transmitted to an intelligent station, analyzed, and then acted upon to influence the environment. The technology consulting firm Gartner, Inc. forecasts that 20.4 billion connected things will be in use worldwide by 2020. The total spending on endpoints and services will reach nearly $3 trillion in 2020.1 They also forecast that worldwide spending on IoT security2 is expected to reach $3.1 billion by 2021. In a similar study, IDC Forecasts Worldwide Technology Spending on the Internet of Things will experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.6% over the 2017–2022 forecast period and reach $1.2 trillion in 2022.3 The authors believe that IoT is a ripe field for not just securing the IoT devices but also for innovations in secure system design, secure building block technologies, and secure hardware and software development practices that together turn the Internet of Things into the Secure Internet of Things” (Sunil, Ned, David, and Anil, 2019).
As of the above two quotations witnesses, it is crystal clear that IoT security is vastly different from ordinary Internet security. Moreover, it should be taken very seriously, for IoT is way closer to our day-to-day lives than we think they are. Chinese leading Tech giant Xiaomis’ smart camera security breach. After Dio-V, who owns a Google Nest Hub and several other Xiaomi Mijia cameras around his home, the incident came to light. He claimed that he received images from other people’s homes randomly when he streamed content from his camera to a Google Nest Hub. And another famous IoT security breached incident is the widely reported “Faxploiting” incident. Yaniv Balmas and Eyal Itkin, security researchers from Check Point, discovered that fax machines have security vulnerabilities that could allow hackers to steal data through a company’s network using just a phone line and a fax number. These incidents should make you feel less secure for your own good. As much as IoT helps people with their lives, it can mess up too. That’s where the thin barrier of IoT security comes to the scene. Even though IoT has advanced from its beginning state, there are still some serious flaws. Indeed incidents like these can not be entirely prevented, yet tech companies are trying their best to reduce the chances of getting cyber-attacked by hackers and cybercriminals. Staying up to date with the latest software is the least we users can do. In the modern world, privacy is becoming a distant memory day by day. The question is whether IoT will fasten the process or slow it down?

For centuries Magna Carta has stood for the principle that no man is above the law, not even a king. Although King John’s Magna Carta does not explicitly articulate this idea, it did create checks designed to restrain the king whenever he failed to uphold the terms of the charter. Chapter 61 of King John’s Magna Carta stipulates that twenty-five barons should be selected to ensure that the king upholds all of the provisions of the charter. When the king is in violation, the barons have the authority to seize the king’s properties by military force—or “distrain” him—until he complies.
This provision was left out of later reissues of Magna Carta, but the memory of the barons’ threat of military force against the king made Magna Carta a symbol of the supremacy of the law over the will of the king. What also remained was the understanding that any act by the king or one of his agents that violated the terms of the charter was void, and, in the language of Edward I’s 1297 Confirmation of the Charters, “should be undone and holden for naught.”
For the framers of the United States Constitution, the checks and balances that operated between the three branches of government were a means to prevent any single branch of the government from governing capriciously. Despite the danger that any of the branches might attempt to overreach its enumerated powers, Magna Carta remains to the present day an especially potent symbol for those seeking to limit the powers of the executive branch of the government.
No One Is above the Law
The medieval jurist Henry de Bracton observed in his treatise, On the Laws and Customs of England, that no one is above the law. The law, he explained, makes the king and, therefore, the king must be subject to the law. “The king should be under no man, but under God and the law.” Bracton’s book, which was in part compiled by other authors, was the first to present a comprehensive account of English law. Written between 1220 and 1260, it enjoyed renewed interest after its first appearance in print in 1569.

Tyrannies Present and Future
Highly distrustful of concentrated political power, Thomas Jefferson supported the creation of a bill of rights as a curb on the executive and legislative branches of the government that would be created under the proposed federal Constitution. In a letter to James Madison, Jefferson wrote: “The tyranny of the legislatures is the most formidable dread at present, and will be for long years. That of the executive will come in it’s [sic] turn, but it will be a remote period.”

Steel Seizure Case
In Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that President Harry Truman’s seizure of the steel industry in the United States was illegal. Justice Robert Jackson’s concurring opinion in that case, often cited by legal scholars, emphasized the importance of limiting the power of the presidency. “With all its defects, delays and inconveniences, men have discovered no technique for long preserving free government except that the Executive be under the law.”

Harry Truman’s Seizure of the Steel Industry
In 1950, all of the major steel manufacturers in the United States went on strike in response to a conflict with the federal Wage Stabilization Board over wage increases the board proposed. President Harry Truman, who saw the strike as a serious threat to American success in the Korean War, ordered a seizure of the production facilities.

King Milhous I
As President Richard Nixon attempted to withhold the Watergate tapes from Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworsky, Nixon’s attorney, James St. Clair, famously told the U.S. Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit: “The President wants me to argue that he is as powerful a monarch as Louis XIV, only four years at a time, and is not subject to the processes of any court in the land except the court of impeachment.” When the case of United States v. Nixon reached the U.S. Supreme Court, the court ruled unanimously that “executive privilege” did not completely insulate the president’s communications from subpoena in a criminal case.

Presidential Immunity from Civil Suits
The president of the United States enjoys immunity from civil suits arising from events that take place during the time in office. Civil suits arising from events taking place prior to the president’s term present a separate question. In Jones v. Clinton, U.S. District Judge Susan Webber determined that President Clinton did not have immunity from a civil suit initiated against him by Arkansas state employee Paula Jones because the events that she alleged occurred before he took office. In a memorandum opinion, Judge Webber traced the legal limits of executive power back to Magna Carta and the English legal tradition that the king is subject to the law.

President Cannot Defer Civil Suits
In Clinton v. Jones, the U.S. Supreme Court decided unanimously that the president did not have immunity from civil suits arising from events alleged to have taken place before his term in office. They also rejected the claim that the president could defer litigation until after his presidency. Justice Stephen Breyer wrote a concurring opinion in which he argued that while the president may not defer court proceedings, the courts must schedule proceedings in order to “avoid significant interference with the President’s ongoing discharge of his official responsibilities.” Cartoonist Herblock lampooned the Court’s decision in light of the impact the case had on President Clinton’s second term as president.

PolishPotteryStore.com and Boostability started working together and began seeing results within 3–4 months. The site’s organic traffic has more than doubled with an increase of 121%. Not only is the site getting more traffic, but it is also getting more targeted traffic. This increase in traffic has resulted in a decrease in the bounce rate by 7%.
When Boostability began helping the Polish Pottery Store there was little to work with. The site had a small online presence but wasn’t ranking for many of its keywords. As an ecommerce store bounce rate plays an important factor not only in Google searches, but also in generating sales. Pages were updated to improve the user experience and decrease load times, resulting in a 7% drop in bounce rate which saw both their rankings and sales increase.
Next up Boostability got to work on a keyword strategy to drive more targeted traffic to PolishPotteryStore.com. Within a few short months, PolishPotteryStore.com more than doubled their website traffic organically, and saw a jump of 16.5 positions on average for each keyword.

The Biden-Harris Administration is announcing new actions across agencies to support American leadership on clean manufacturing — including low-carbon production of the steel and aluminum needed for electric vehicles (EVs), wind turbines, and solar panels, and the clean concrete needed to upgrade transportation infrastructure. These actions are expected to create better-paying jobs and follow a comeback for American factories. More than 367,000 manufacturing jobs were added during President Biden’s first year in office, the most in nearly 30 years. Further strengthening the industrial base could revitalize local economies, lower prices for consumers, provide more pathways to the middle class through union jobs, and boost American competitiveness in global markets.
The industrial sector is also central to tackling the climate crisis, as it is currently responsible for nearly a third of domestic greenhouse gas emissions. By helping manufacturers use clean energy, efficiency upgrades, and other innovative technologies to reduce emissions, the Administration is supporting cleaner industry that can produce the next generation of products and materials for a net-zero economy. These same manufacturing improvements will also protect public health, by reducing releases of air and water pollutants and toxic materials that disproportionately harm low-income households and communities of color.
The measures discussed in the White House’s announcement will clean up industrial processes that have long been challenging sources of pollution; create good-paying, union jobs across American manufacturing; and use domestic procurement and global trade policy to reward clean, American-made materials.
For specific measures and itemized costs put forth by the proposal, visit the White House Fact Sheet.


3D printing has been available since 1980’s but it took the post-PC revolution and Internet of Things to commercialise the genre and turn it from an industrial technology‚ to something that can be used at home. Since the launch of recent consumer 3D printers‚ we have seen some amazing replication of designs and items‚ that until now could only be visualised on computer screens. This demand has fuelled the growth of a few companies producing consumer-grade 3D printers like ProtoMaker‚ MakerBot‚ and Cubify.
While the current focus of hobbyists is primarily crafting interesting but niche items like abstract and geometric designs‚ the potential for 3D printing to transform the retail & manufacturing industries is hugely disruptive and exciting. Sectors like healthcare are seeing innovation where companies are working on printing human body parts that can replace prosthetics that are very expensive and difficult to manufacture. We are even looking at a grocery revolution thanks to the concept of 3D printed food with the assistance of devices like the Foodini (if you can excuse the terrible name).
Is it inevitable that the future of retail & commerce will now involve us heading to digital blueprint stores like MakerBot Digital Store to buy our next piece of crockery‚ mug‚ or desk lamp? How long will it be before retailers are seriously having to consider 3D printing as part of their retail mobile strategy?
It’s difficult to say‚ but we think 3D printing has the potential to usher in an exciting era of truly personalised products moving from factories generating mass replica products to millions of people grabbing a base design or blueprint that they can customise to their own tastes and likes.
Social networks like Thingverse will start enabling crowdsourced designs which will open up the potential for new & interesting products to be designed. What happens when we truly democratise the design of products where anyone can produce a quick prototype in their study without having to invest millions in the traditional tooling and factory manufacturing processes? New product development & design that was previously restricted to large enterprises with significant R&D capital and facilities due to the risk involved in producing prototypes of physical products will now be accessible to everyone. This will usher in a new era of exciting start-ups that can move faster than the larger enterprises while rapidly iterating and innovating on designs. It creates a truly level playing field for start-ups producing physical products to get their ideas to the market quicker than it is possible.
What does this also mean for our high street and e-commerce stores like Amazon? While we might still need our local IKEA & car dealer for sourcing large items that are unlikely to be easily printable at home‚ retailers that primarily rely on selling smaller sized household items will either have to rapidly innovate to discuss this market or simply die. While this certainly won’t happen in the next decade or two‚ it is a very real possibility that the next century will bring disruption at a massive consumer scale.
3D printing might also be a huge boon for the environment with a renewed focus on recycling and repurposing of printed objects. Consumers could potentially complete the entire recycling process at home and not put everything in a bin and hope it helps the environment. It also paints a great future for repurposing existing equipment you have in your house. Have no further use for that cup you made a couple of years ago? Reuse the material to make yourself a lamp or a utensil. Of course‚ recycling is not a trivial process due to the materials used today but we will start to see innovation in materials that can be broken down and re-made into other complex objects.
One of the key challenges 3D printing at home faces is the materials that are available to consumers are limited to primarily resin or plastic like products that can be easily moulded in a 3D printer. Complex 3D printing using tougher strength materials like metal & other durable materials is still very much the domain of industrial production processes and factories.
The liberalisation of production of everyday objects also brings with it a key challenge for designers when it comes to intellectual property and issues around copyright‚ trademarks and patents. Like music‚ when the distribution method & channels were tightly controlled and uneconomical‚ it is easy for producers to keep a tight control on the product and the intellectual property behind it. However‚ once the product that you are selling is primarily digital (a blueprint or MP3) file‚ it is much more difficult to enforce control over distribution channels and check their use. While DRM technology is pretty mature and can easily address digital blueprints‚ it will face similar challenges to music privacy where obtaining a desirable product is as simply as e-mailing someone the design blueprint.
