This time last year, at .conf2015, we introduced Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) to the world and it’s been a fantastic first year – customers all over the world have chosen ITSI to transform service monitoring and IT operations through machine data-driven analytics.
On Tuesday morning at .conf2016, we had the opportunity to announce what’s new with ITSI. The newest release builds on where we started with ITSI, simplifying service operations with advanced event analytics and delivering business and service context to help prioritize incident investigation. As promised, we continue to innovate with machine learning to reduce the complexity in rules and threshold management with real-time correlations, predefined semantics and base-lining behavior operational patterns. Let’s dig into the new capabilities:
Simplify Operations with Machine Learning
What’s normal activity for 2pm on a Monday is likely very different from normal activity for 2am on a Saturday, and you can work with ITSI to identify these differences to ensure that only what’s relevant and important and notable events come through as alerts. ITSI lets every IT practitioner, not just data scientists, take advantage of machine learning to identify normal vs abnormal behavior and use advanced measurements to dynamically adapt thresholds. ITSI uses real-time, multivariate anomaly detection seamlessly in the product and combines event data with advanced analytics to reduce event clutter, false positives and extensive rules maintenance.
Improved Incident Prioritization
ITSI is focused on improving the signal to noise ratio with IT monitoring, reducing the effort wasted sifting through vast numbers of event data by filtering, tagging and sorting events based on priority. You can quickly tag, index, enrich and add context to events in ITSI to make event management more informative and more actionable. Also, with ITSI, you can easily integrate with incident management applications like ServiceNow or BMC Remedy or build your own custom integrations to initiate incident workflows and remediation processes.
Getting Up and Running Faster with ITSI Modules
Splunk ITSI Modules include built-in data access and pre-packaged dashboards, to deliver deep, service-oriented insights into individual technology domains like application servers, databases, load balancers, operating systems, virtualization, web servers, storage, cloud services and mobile end user experience. Modules are purpose-built for ITSI and are designed to make it easier and faster to get up and running with ITSI. ITSI Modules can be easily mapped to services, KPIs and entities as well as easily configured with guided in-browser module configurations. Customers and partners can even develop their own modules via the ITSI Module Builder Tools (link to dev.splunk.com)>
As you can see, this latest release of Splunk ITSI is packed with great features to make IT monitoring smarter and more effective. Ready to dig in?

This was the scene after a racing car ploughed into a couple’s conservatory where their four-year-old grandson had been playing just an hour earlier.
Kevin and Lynne Fishwick say tiny Jake or his one year-old cousin Maizi could have been killed when a green Ford Mondeo, racing a white van, careered off the road smashing through a wall and into the rear of their home.
Jake’s grandma Lynne, of Kelso Close, Heysham, said they were enjoying their Sunday afternoon when they heard a huge bang.
She said: “The house literally shook.
“That was when I saw all the debris in the conservatory. My daughter came into the living room and I told her to dial 999. I saw two young lads and they just legged it.
“One of them was trying to retrieve something and left before he could.
“Police later said it was a mobile phone which they thought he was trying to grab.”
The family said a witness saw the green Ford Mondeo and a white Astra van in the village before they were seen racing side by side on Barrows Lane, to the rear of the Fishwick’s property at speeds up to 60 or 70mph.
Lynne said: “My grandson or granddaughter could have been in there and been seriously injured or worse.”
Kevin said: “There is a big gap in the wall and it really needs some white arrows or signs saying sharp bend, slow down.
“We were all shaken up at what could have happened.
“We have been in this house for six years and a car has already gone through the wooden fencing at the back.
“Luckily I replaced the wooden fencing with concrete or else the car could have come straight into the house.”
“It’s a very busy footpath and popular with dog walkers and cyclists, so it’s lucky no-one was walking there at that point in time or they could have been killed.
“Is it going to take someone getting killed before some sort of barrier is put up?”
The family said the damage to the conservatory and wall is estimated to be at least £5,000.
Police said the incident happened at 1.40pm on Sunday.
The two ran off towards Half Moon Bay.
The first man is described as white, short hair, black jacket, either late teens or early 20s.
The police helicopter went up to find them but no arrests have been made as yet.
The car, which was recovered had no insurance and no MOT.
Police said there may have been another car involved and they may have been racing.

Nestled in a pocket of Berwyn Heights, about a 15-minute walk away from the University of Maryland campus, is a sweet little house with black shutters and an odd nickname: Shark Jar, after a chemically preserved baby shark that one of its former residents found while thrifting.
Not too far away is a witchy-looking house filled with nooks and crannies called Coven Cove. Then, in Calvert Hills, there’s Mad Ox, which is named after the woman who founded Cooperative Housing at University of Maryland — the community that all three houses belong to.
But in a city filled with expensive high-rises, there’s something beside these houses’ goofy monikers that set them apart: rent that ranges from $350 to $400 for a double room.
Affordable housing is sparse in College Park. Route 1 is already lined with luxury apartment buildings — where rent reaches up to $1,300 for a four-bedroom, four-bath unit — and more are on their way to the area. The Aspen and the Hub, which will replace the Knox Boxes in the near future, are set to feature amenities like hot tubs, pools, lounge areas with fire pits and pool tables and bistros. The city’s median rent is already at roughly $1,185, and after these apartments open for business, it’s not likely to drop any time soon.
Considering the scale of the problem, some city officials raised doubts that cooperative housing could be the whole solution for the lack of affordable housing available for students in College Park. Still, Cooperative Housing at University of Maryland represents a safe haven for those who might otherwise not be able to afford to live so close to the campus. And as the cooperative works to build capital and ultimately purchase its own property, its treasurer, senior public policy major Ayesha Amsa, said it has the potential to further shape what housing looks like in the city.
“I do think CHUM can become a much larger force than it is right now,” she said.
CHUM has existed in College Park since Rachael Maddox founded it in 2009 as a product of her thesis, which examined the lack of affordable housing in College Park. Though the cooperative currently has three houses, it has previously had up to six at one time.
Typically, CHUM rates go up to $400 for a double and singles are usually $600. On top of that, residents pay a grocery fee of roughly $50 every month. To save even more money, they try to buy in bulk when shopping.
What makes cooperative housing so affordable is that residents don’t own the space outright, but instead are shareholders in the co-op itself. CHUM is a zero-equity, not-for-profit organization, meaning it operates on an “at-cost” basis — only collecting money from residents to cover expenses — and cannot sell property for a profit. Besides paying rent each month, CHUM members contribute to the cooperative by doing chores, cooking and serving on committees to keep the organization running.
Though CHUM is exclusive to College Park, there are plenty of other housing cooperatives in areas close to the city, such as Washington, D.C., and Silver Spring. Nationwide, these types of living situations tend to be concentrated in cities where the cost of living is high, such as New York and Boston.
Increasingly, housing cooperatives are also becoming popular in college towns. According to Welcome to the Table, a website that supports co-ops, there are currently 51 housing cooperatives in areas surrounding U.S. colleges and universities. In the case of the towns surrounding the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Michigan, more than one cooperative provides housing to students. Amsa says she can’t see why the same couldn’t happen in College Park.
“UMD should also have this resource,” she said.
The future of CHUM and affordable housing in College Park
There have been CHUM houses in Calvert Hills for just over a decade — and District 3 council member John Rigg said their residents have always been great neighbors. When Rigg was the president of the Calvert Hills Citizens Association, he teamed up with CHUM members to put garden boxes by the trolley trails.
He has always been a supporter of co-op living, he said. During his college years at Emory University in Atlanta, he lived in an intercultural co-op called the Spice House, where he met his wife. Still, he said it would be difficult for CHUM to provide widespread affordable housing with its limited resources. For that reason, Rigg doesn’t see cooperative housing as the fix-all for the city’s affordable housing issue.
“We’re talking about thousands of students that need access to affordable housing and CHUM has, at any given point in time, housed a few dozen,” Rigg said.
District 4 council member Denise Mitchell agreed. While she supports CHUM as an affordable option for students, she says the city is planning additional steps to make housing less pricey for residents.
Over the next few weeks and throughout the summer, Mitchell said the council will be talking more concretely about how to implement affordable housing solutions in College Park. She and her colleagues will look at the measures that nearby cities, such as Hyattsville, have in place and consider the perspectives of other college towns that are members of the International Town and Gown Association.
She noted that the city still needs to define what housing affordability means in College Park.
“Everyone has a different perception,” Mitchell said.
Amsa, however, is more optimistic about the influence that cooperative housing could have on the affordability problem in College Park. Under this model of housing, she said students not only have cheaper rent, but by serving on various CHUM committees, they also have a say in how the organization is run.
Because of this, co-op residents aren’t bound to decisions made by the university or by apartment complex owners. At the end of each rental year, CHUM members vote on whether they’d like to continue living in a certain house, or if they’d like to look for another one and seek out a new landlord willing to partner with the cooperative.
But since CHUM’s beginning, it has had a bigger goal: property ownership. Since its founding, members have paid monthly “Future Investment and Rent Emergencies” fees. Though these fees typically come to $35, members can lower the cost they pay by performing other duties for the cooperative. For example, if a tenant helps in the garden for a couple of hours, they only have to pay $25. CHUM then saves this money, which Amsa said will hopefully go to a house one day.
Once CHUM purchases one house, Amsa said it will become easier in the future for the cooperative to buy more. Even as one organization, she said she feels like CHUM can make a difference in the city.
“Pushing cooperatives as a solution is a very possible answer to this crisis,” Amsa said.
Life at CHUM
During Catherine Oberfield’s freshman year, she set out looking for housing in College Park with a budget of $350 and a desire for community living.
Apartments, she found, were too expensive and too impersonal. Though group houses had the community feel, they proved to be too expensive for their quality. But CHUM was perfect, and she became a member her sophomore year.
Four years later, Oberfield has lived in three CHUM houses, and her rent has never exceeded her original budget. She still lives in a CHUM house, even though she graduated in May. Not only has the housing cooperative been affordable, but Oberfield says it’s also been the first place that has felt like home. For her — a queer, biracial woman — it’s a safe space.
CHUM, much like other co-ops, values democracy, inclusivity and equity and aims to be a safe space for all. Many of CHUM’s residents are members of the LGBTQ community. Some members eat vegan or vegetarian. But no one is made to feel inferior, left out or pressured to do things they don’t want to do.
When Elliott Shepherd decided to come to this university after a gap year in Florida, a former graduate student immediately recommended that they live in CHUM. After some preliminary research, the now-junior linguistics major decided it was the perfect place for them. They didn’t even consider other living options.
Currently, they live in Shark Jar. And even though Shepherd’s roommates aren’t necessarily who they would have initially picked, they still get together and enjoy each others’ company — and Shepherd is still happy to be a member of CHUM.
“I love being in a community where we’re all looking out for each other and we’re all working together to achieve common goals,” Shepherd said.
Group dinners make up a big part of the sense of community in CHUM houses, Oberfield said. Though schedules and diets vary from house to house — Coven Cove, where Oberfield lives, is vegan, and Shark Jar is typically vegetarian — each night, one person is responsible for cooking dinner for everyone they live with. The last time Oberfield cooked for her house, she made shepherd’s pie. Usually, she’ll also bring back fresh vegetables from the farm where she works in Olney to make a salad for the meal.
In Oberfield’s experience, a good dinner system is what makes a good house.
“It’s a time where we all come together and we’re able to share stories and laugh and just enjoy each other’s company,” she said. “At the end of the day, if you had a rough day at school or work, you know that dinner is going to be on the table.”
To live in CHUM, prospective residents fill out an application that asks about their living preferences — if they would be comfortable with potential drug use or pets in the house, for instance. CHUM’s New Membership Committee then selects applicants who they think would be a good addition to the cooperative; the committee’s goal is always creating an environment that is safe and inclusive, so its members pick people who would contribute to CHUM’s culture and are open to living with people with different identities than their own. The committee then matches members with houses where they would fit in.
After becoming members, people are responsible for serving on a CHUM committee or on the executive board. Shepherd leads the Handbooks and History Committee, which preserves CHUM’s traditions and history. Oberfield is the grocery manager of her house, which means she’s in charge of all grocery shopping. She has also served as head of the Gardening and Sustainability Committee.
But while Amsa says these committees serve as a great way to keep the cooperative running, she says CHUM’s high turnover rate can pose some challenges.
“It’s almost always a new person every year because, like any other student organization, after four years or less, the people who have all the knowledge [and] skill move on,” Amsa said.
For this reason, the organization is hoping that more long-term College Park residents will start living in CHUM, Oberfield said.
But at the end of the day, Oberfield recognized that not everyone in College Park needs affordable housing.
“There are plenty of senators’ sons out there who have no problem paying $1,000 rent,” she said. “It’s whether or not College Park wants to create a space for people like me who don’t come from rich parents.”
CORRECTION: Due to a reporting error, a previous version of this story misstated the range of rents for CHUM rooms. Monthly rent for a single is usually $600, not between $375 and $515. Monthly rent for a double is usually between $350 and $400, not a maximum of $390. The story also misstated that executive board members only pay five dollars in FIRE fees. Though executive board members — like all members — can lower the cost they pay by performing other duties, their fee depends on their contributions. The minimum FIRE fee is five dollars for all members.

NOLLYWOOD actress Maryann Apollo has announced that what she currently desires is a husband and not a relationship.
Apollo, who was on an Instagram session with Stella Damasus said, “I’m in my 40s, I can’t start a relationship but when a husband comes, it’s a husband I want.”
She went further to talk about how she has remained celibate until she meets a man that desires her as a wife.
“You’re not gonna taste me, I’m celibate, six years now, I’m not groundnut you can’t taste me. If you want to taste me, pay for the goods and carry the goods to your father’s house.”
The actress also gave an example of how her suitor was asking her for a relationship but her response was that “I know but a relationship in God’s way.”
She also reiterated that her suitor’s love for Jesus is important and they’ll go to church together and maintained that’s all her suitor will get.
“This body, this me is for one man. God will not give me the wrong person,” she said.
However, she claimed that she has no fear of not being married and she is also not afraid to be married. She said, “if it was before when it was in the world, I would have rushed into one and by now l, I would have been divorced because their lifestyle is not my lifestyle.”
When asked about the process her suitors go through, she said, “I go to my spiritual father and I say daddy I’ve brought somebody to you. Then he’ll pray about it and say the person is not the one. And I say okay, I’ll also take it to Jesus.”

These Canadians traveled all the way over to New York City to enjoy good food, good wine and.... and amazing engagement photography session! :) They wanted their session to encapsulate New York City and the concrete jungle that it is. We picked a few hot spots, Times Square, Central Park and the Brooklyn bridge .. and they definitely made it work. It was amazing because once we got to Brooklyn Bridge Park it was drizzling a bit... mostly fog perspiration... but it made for some amazing photographs!! It was even more great because they were both super patient, super laid back and was loving it because we were creating such memorable photographs and gifs! I had so much fun with these two,.. and definitely got some of the best photos yet in my career and again love being a New York City wedding photographer. Enjoy!!
Ruth and Blake definitely wanted everyone to have a great time at their wedding. From have the bar serving their signature mixed drink to their personalized cozies, it was clear that a party was in tow. Another great love of theirs is their dogs, which they included into the wedding! I got to meet their little puppies and photograph them as part of their bridal party. The wedding venue was a gorgeous castle out in Philly- very different from my usual New York City Weddings- and about an hour prior to their wedding, it was raining like crazy- however RIGHT when it was time to begin their outdoor ceremony-- the skies cleared and their ceremony was beautiful! It was definitely a miraculous occurrence and a blessing for their beautiful day! Here are some of my favorite shots:
Meet Tiffannie and John! Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, Tiffannie and John have been preparing for their big day by traveling the world and getting their wedding and engagement sessions done. Having last been in Paris, France, they knew the next place they wanted to shoot in was the Big Apple- New York City!! So they called me, their New York City Wedding and Engagement Photographer, and wanted to get the most "New York" spots they could. So we decided on Times Square, Grand Central Station and of course Brooklyn's finest Bridge! It was a extremely cold day (as following the tradition of the NYC 2014 Winter Polar Vortex year) and Tiffannie was a super-trooper, her final words for the shoot (even though she was freezing on the top of the bridge was), "It's all worth it!!!" Such an encouragement :) Here are some of my favorite shots from the shoot all over New York City!!
Meet Teresa and Lam! They flew all the way from LA, California to work with me on an engagement session in the great New York City!! It was really awesome-- I FOUND THE BUBBLE MAN in Central Park and we were able to work with them for some really cool shots! It was a very happy moment for me as a New York City Wedding photographer. I've always wanted to catch him in action during one of my shoots- and I finally did. It was really great working with Teresa and Lam- they were both so chill and fun to work with! After our time in Central Park, we went to Magnolia’s Bakery on the Upper West side of New York City to grab a small snack and finish up there.
Here are my favorites from the session:

Marilyn Hacker |
An unwrapped icon, too potent to touch,
she freed my breasts from the camp Empire dress.
Now one of them's the shadow of a breast
with a lost object's half-life, with as much
life as an anecdotal photograph:
me, Kim and Iva, all stripped to the waist,
hiking near Russian River on June first
'79: Iva's five-and-a-half.
While she was almost twenty, wearing black
T-shirts in D.
, where we hadn't met.
You lay your palm, my love, on my flat chest.
In lines alive with what is not regret,
she takes her own path past, doesn't turn back.
Persistently, on paper, we exist.
Persistently, on paper, we exist.
You'd touch me if you could, but you're, in fact,
three thousand miles away.
And my intact
body is eighteen months paper: the past
a fragile eighteen months regime of trust
in slash-and-burn, in vitamin pills, backed
by no statistics.
Each day I enact
survivor's rituals, blessing the crust
I tear from the warm loaf, blessing the hours
in which I didn't or in which I did
consider my own death.
I am not yet
statistically a survivor (that
is sixty months).
On paper, someone flowers
and flares alive.
I knew her.
But she's dead.
She flares alive.
I knew her.
But she's dead.
I flirted with her, might have been her friend,
but transatlantic schedules intervened.
She wrote a book about her Freedom Ride,
the wary elders whom she taught to read,
— herself half-British, twenty-six, white-blonde,
with thirty years to live.
And I happened
to open up The Nation to that bad
news which I otherwise might not have known
(not breast cancer: cancer of the brain).
Words take the absent friend away again.
Alone, I think, she called, alone, upon
her courage, tried in ways she'd not have wished
by pain and fear: her courage, extinguished.
The pain and fear some courage extinguished
at disaster's denouement come back
daily, banal: is that brownish-black
mole the next chapter? Was the ache enmeshed
between my chest and armpit when I washed
rogue cells' new claw, or just a muscle ache?
I'm not yet desperate enough to take
comfort in being predeceased: the anguish
when the Harlem doctor, the Jewish dancer,
die of AIDS, the Boston seminary's
dean succumbs "after brief illness" to cancer.
I like mossed slabs in country cemeteries
with wide-paced dates, candles in jars, whose tallow
glows on summer evenings, desk-lamp yellow.
Aglow in summer evening, a desk-lamp's yellow
moonlight peruses notebooks, houseplants, texts,
while an aging woman thinks of sex
in the present tense.
Desire may follow,
urgent or elegant, cut raw or mellow
with wine and ripe black figs: a proof, the next
course, a simple question, the complex
response, a burning sweetness she will swallow.
The opening mind is sexual and ready
to embrace, incarnate in its prime.
Rippling concentrically from summer's gold
disc, desire's iris expands, steady
with blood beat.
Each time implies the next time.
The aging woman hopes she will grow old.

She was thinner, with a mannered gauntness
as she paused just inside the double
glass doors to survey the room, silvery cape
billowing dramatically behind her.
I thought, lifting a hand until
she nodded and started across the parquet;
that's when I saw she was dressed all in gray,
from a kittenish cashmere skirt and cowl
down to the graphite signature of her shoes.
"Sorry I'm late," she panted, though
she wasn't, sliding into the chair, her cape
tossed off in a shudder of brushed steel.
Then I leaned back to peruse
my blighted child, this wary aristocratic mole.
"How's business?" I asked, and hazarded
a motherly smile to keep from crying out:
Are you content to conduct your life
as a cliché and, what's worse,
an anachronism, the brooding artist's demimonde?

Pinot Noir, brought color to her cheeks.

to drop her eyes.
She did look ravishing,
spookily insubstantial, a lipstick ghost on tissue,
or as if one stood on a fifth-floor terrace
peering through a fringe of rain at Paris'
dreaming chimney pots, each sooty issue
wobbling skyward in an ecstatic oracular spiral.

mucking a golden glob complete with parsley sprig
onto a heel of bread.
Nothing seemed to fill
her up: She swallowed, sliced into a pear,
speared each tear-shaped lavaliere
and popped the dripping mess into her pretty mouth.
Nowhere the bright tufted fields, weighted
vines and sun poured down out of the south.

"What?You know, Mother"--
she bit into the starry rose of a fig--

Sidney Lanier |
At midnight, death's and truth's unlocking time,
When far within the spirit's hearing rolls
The great soft rumble of the course of things --
A bulk of silence in a mask of sound, --
When darkness clears our vision that by day
Is sun-blind, and the soul's a ravening owl
For truth and flitteth here and there about
Low-lying woody tracts of time and oft
Is minded for to sit upon a bough,
Dry-dead and sharp, of some long-stricken tree
And muse in that gaunt place, -- 'twas then my heart,
Deep in the meditative dark, cried out:
"Ye companies of governor-spirits grave,
Bards, and old bringers-down of flaming news
From steep-wall'd heavens, holy malcontents,
Sweet seers, and stellar visionaries, all
That brood about the skies of poesy,
Full bright ye shine, insuperable stars;
Yet, if a man look hard upon you, none
With total lustre blazeth, no, not one
But hath some heinous freckle of the flesh
Upon his shining cheek, not one but winks
His ray, opaqued with intermittent mist
Of defect; yea, you masters all must ask
Some sweet forgiveness, which we leap to give,
We lovers of you, heavenly-glad to meet
Your largesse so with love, and interplight
Your geniuses with our mortalities.
Thus unto thee, O sweetest Shakespeare sole,
A hundred hurts a day I do forgive
('Tis little, but, enchantment! 'tis for thee):
Small curious quibble; Juliet's prurient pun
In the poor, pale face of Romeo's fancied death;
Cold rant of Richard; Henry's fustian roar
Which frights away that sleep he invocates;
Wronged Valentine's unnatural haste to yield;
Too-silly shifts of maids that mask as men
In faint disguises that could ne'er disguise --
Viola, Julia, Portia, Rosalind;
Fatigues most drear, and needless overtax
Of speech obscure that had as lief be plain;
Last I forgive (with more delight, because
'Tis more to do) the labored-lewd discourse
That e'en thy young invention's youngest heir
Besmirched the world with.
Father Homer, thee,
Thee also I forgive thy sandy wastes
Of prose and catalogue, thy drear harangues
That tease the patience of the centuries,
Thy sleazy scrap of story, -- but a rogue's
Rape of a light-o'-love, -- too soiled a patch
To broider with the gods.
Thou dear and very strong one, I forgive
Thy year-worn cloak, thine iron stringencies
That were but dandy upside-down, thy words
Of truth that, mildlier spoke, had mainlier wrought.
So, Buddha, beautiful! I pardon thee
That all the All thou hadst for needy man
Was Nothing, and thy Best of being was
But not to be.
Worn Dante, I forgive
The implacable hates that in thy horrid hells
Or burn or freeze thy fellows, never loosed
By death, nor time, nor love.
And I forgive
Thee, Milton, those thy comic-dreadful wars
Where, armed with gross and inconclusive steel,
Immortals smite immortals mortalwise
And fill all heaven with folly.
Brave Aeschylus, thee I forgive, for that
Thine eye, by bare bright justice basilisked,
Turned not, nor ever learned to look where Love
So, unto thee, Lucretius mine
(For oh, what heart hath loved thee like to this
That's now complaining?), freely I forgive
Thy logic poor, thine error rich, thine earth
Whose graves eat souls and all.
Yea, all you hearts
Of beauty, and sweet righteous lovers large:
Aurelius fine, oft superfine; mild Saint
A Kempis, overmild; Epictetus,
Whiles low in thought, still with old slavery tinct;
Rapt Behmen, rapt too far; high Swedenborg,
O'ertoppling; Langley, that with but a touch
Of art hadst sung Piers Plowman to the top
Of English songs, whereof 'tis dearest, now,
And most adorable; Caedmon, in the morn
A-calling angels with the cow-herd's call
That late brought up the cattle; Emerson,
Most wise, that yet, in finding Wisdom, lost
Thy Self, sometimes; tense Keats, with angels' nerves
Where men's were better; Tennyson, largest voice
Since Milton, yet some register of wit
Wanting; -- all, all, I pardon, ere 'tis asked,
Your more or less, your little mole that marks
You brother and your kinship seals to man.
But Thee, but Thee, O sovereign Seer of time,
But Thee, O poets' Poet, Wisdom's Tongue,
But Thee, O man's best Man, O love's best Love,
O perfect life in perfect labor writ,
O all men's Comrade, Servant, King, or Priest, --
What `if' or `yet', what mole, what flaw, what lapse,
What least defect or shadow of defect,
What rumor, tattled by an enemy,
Of inference loose, what lack of grace
Even in torture's grasp, or sleep's, or death's, --
Oh, what amiss may I forgive in Thee,
Jesus, good Paragon, thou Crystal Christ?"
John Greenleaf Whittier |
Blessings on thee, little man,
Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan!
With thy turned-up pantaloons,
And thy merry whistled tunes;
With thy red lip, redder still
Kissed by strawberries on the hill;
With the sunshine on thy face,
Through thy torn brim's jaunty grace;
From my heart I give thee joy, -
I was once a barefoot boy!
Prince thou art, - the grown-up man
Only is republican.
Let the million-dollared ride!
Barefoot, trudging at his side,
Thou hast more than he can buy
In the reach of ear and eye, -
Outward sunshine, inward joy:
Blessings on thee, barefoot boy!
Oh for boyhood's painless play,
Sleep that wakes in laughing day,
Health that mocks the doctor's rules,
Knowledge never learned of schools,
Of the wild bee's morning chase,
Of the wild-flower's time and place,
Flight of fowl and habitude
Of the tenants of the wood;
How the tortoise bears his shell,
How the woodchuck digs his cell,
And the ground-mole sinks his well;
How the robin feeds her young,
How the oriole's nest is hung;
Where the whitest lilies blow,
Where the freshest berries grow,
Where the ground-nut trails its vine,
Where the wood-grape's clusters shine;
Of the black wasp's cunning way,
Mason of his walls of clay,
And the architectural plans
Of gray hornet artisans!
For, eschewing books and tasks,
Nature answers all he asks;
Hand in hand with her he walks,
Face to face with her he talks,
Part and parcel of her joy, -
Blessings on the barefoot boy!
Oh for boyhood's time of June,
Crowding years in one brief moon,
When all things I heard or saw,
Me, their master, waited for.
I was rich in flowers and trees,
Humming-birds and honey-bees;
For my sport the squirrel played,
Plied the snouted mole his spade;
For my taste the blackberry cone
Purpled over hedge and stone;
Laughed the brook for my delight
Through the day and through the night,
Whispering at the garden wall,
Talked with me from fall to fall;
Mine the sand-rimmed pickerel pond,
Mine the walnut slopes beyond,
Mine, on bending orchard trees,
Apples of Hesperides!
Still as my horizon grew,
Larger grew my riches too;
All the world I saw or knew
Seemed a complex Chinese toy,
Fashioned for a barefoot boy!
Oh for festal dainties spread,
Like my bowl of milk and bread;
Pewter spoon and bowl of wood,
On the door-stone, gray and rude!
O'er me, like a regal tent,
Cloudy-ribbed, the sunset bent,
Purple-curtained, fringed with gold,
Looped in many a wind-swung fold;
While for music came the play
Of the pied frogs' orchestra;
And, to light the noisy choir,
Lit the fly his lamp of fire.
I was monarch: pomp and joy
Waited on the barefoot boy!
Cheerily, then, my little man,
Live and laugh, as boyhood can!
Though the flinty slopes be hard,
Stubble-speared the new-mown sward,
Every morn shall lead thee through
Fresh baptisms of the dew;
Every evening from thy feet
Shall the cool wind kiss the heat:
All too soon these feet must hide
In the prison cells of pride,
Lose the freedom of the sod,
Like a colt's for work be shod,
Made to tread the mills of toil,
Up and down in ceaseless moil:
Happy if their track be found
Never on forbidden ground;
Happy if they sink not in
Quick and treacherous sands of sin.
Ah! that thou couldst know thy joy,
Ere it passes, barefoot boy!
Anne Sexton |
for Sylvia Plath
O Sylvia, Sylvia,
with a dead box of stones and spoons,
with two children, two meteors
wandering loose in a tiny playroom,
with your mouth into the sheet,
into the roofbeam, into the dumb prayer,
where did you go
after you wrote me
about rasing potatoes
and keeping bees?)
what did you stand by,
just how did you lie down into?
how did you crawl into,
crawl down alone
into the death I wanted so badly and for so long,
the death we said we both outgrew,
the one we wore on our skinny breasts,
the one we talked of so often each time
we downed three extra dry martinis in Boston,
the death that talked of analysts and cures,
the death that talked like brides with plots,
the death we drank to,
the motives and the quiet deed?
ride in cabs,
yes death again,
that ride home
with our boy.
O Sylvia, I remember the sleepy drummer
who beat on our eyes with an old story,
how we wanted to let him come
like a sadist or a New York fairy
to do his job,
a necessity, a window in a wall or a crib,
and since that time he waited
under our heart, our cupboard,
and I see now that we store him up
year after year, old suicides
and I know at the news of your death
a terrible taste for it, like salt,
And now, Sylvia,
with death again,
that ride home
with our boy.
And I say only
with my arms stretched out into that stone place,
what is your death
but an old belonging,
a mole that fell out
of one of your poems?
while the moon's bad,
and the king's gone,
and the queen's at her wit's end
the bar fly ought to sing!)
O tiny mother,
O funny duchess!
O blonde thing!
Joseph Brodsky |
All the huskies are eaten.
There is no space
left in the diary And the beads of quick
words scatter over his spouse's sepia-shaded face
adding the date in question like a mole to her lovely cheek.
Next the snapshot of his sister.
He doesn't spare his kin:
what's been reached is the highest possible latitude!
And like the silk stocking of a burlesque half-nude
queen it climbs up his thigh: gangrene.
Countee Cullen |
I doubt not God is good, well-meaning, kind
And did He stoop to quibble could tell why
The little buried mole continues blind,
Why flesh that mirrors Him must some day die,
Make plain the reason tortured Tantalus
Is baited by the fickle fruit, declare
If merely brute caprice dooms Sisyphus
To struggle up a never-ending stair.
Inscrutable His ways are, and immune
To catechism by a mind too strewn
With petty cares to slightly understand
What awful brain compels His awful hand.
Yet do I marvel at this curious thing:
To make a poet black, and bid him sing!
John Keats |
O SOFT embalmer of the still midnight!
Shutting with careful fingers and benign
Our gloom-pleased eyes embower'd from the light
Enshaded in forgetfulness divine;
O soothest Sleep! if so it please thee close 5
In midst of this thine hymn my willing eyes
Or wait the amen ere thy poppy throws
Around my bed its lulling charities;
Then save me or the pass¨¨d day will shine
Upon my pillow breeding many woes; 10
Save me from curious conscience that still lords
Its strength for darkness burrowing like a mole;
Turn the key deftly in the oil¨¨d wards
And seal the hush¨¨d casket of my soul.
Anne Kingsmill Finch |
Tis true of courage I'm no mistress
No Boadicia nor Thalestriss
Nor shall I e'er be famed hereafter
For such a Soul as Cato's Daughter
Nor active valour nor enduring
Nor leading troops nor forts securing
Like Teckley's wife or Pucell valiant
Will e'er be reckonded for my talent
Who all things fear whilst day is shining
And my own shadow light declining
And from the Spleen's prolifick fountain
Can of a mole hill make a mountain
And if a Coach that was invented
Since Bess on Palfrey rode contented
Threatens to tumble topsy turvy
With screeches loud and faces scurvey
I break discourse whilst some are laughing
Some fall to chear me some to chaffing
As secretly the driver curses
And whips my fault upon the horses
These and ten thousand are the errours
Arising from tumultuous terrours
Yet can't I understand the merit
In Female's of a daring spirit
Since to them never was imparted
In manly strengh tho' manly hearted
Nor need that sex be self defending
Who charm the most when most depending
And by sweet plaints and soft distresses
First gain asistance then adresses
As our fourth Edward (beauty suing)
From but releiving fell to wooing
Who by Heroick speech or ranting
Had ne'er been melted to galanting
Nor had th'Egyptian Queen defying
Drawn off that fleet she led by flying
Whilst Cesar and his ships crew hollow'd
To see how Tony row'd and follow'd
Oh Action triumph of the Ladies
And plea for her who most afraid is
Then let my conduct work no wonder
When fame who cleaves the air asunder
And every thing in time discovers
Nor council keeps for Kings or Lovers
Yet stoops when tired with States and battles
To Gossips chats and idler tattles
When she I say has given no knowledge
Of what has happen'd at Wye College
Think it not strange to save my Person
I gave the family diversion
'Twas at an hour when most were sleeping
Some chimnies clean some wanted sweeping
Mine thro' good fires maintain'd this winter
(Of which no FINCH was e'er a stinter)
Pour'd down such flakes not Etna bigger
Throws up as did my fancy figure
Nor does a Cannon ram'd with Powder
To others seem to Bellow louder
All that I thought or spoke or acted
Can't in a letter be compacted
Nor how I threatn'd those with burning
Who thoughtless on their beds were turning
As Shakespear says they serv'd old Prium
When that the Greeks were got too nigh'em
And such th'effect in spite of weather
Our Hecuba's all rose together
I at their head half cloath'd and shaking
Was instantly the house forsaking
And told them 'twas no time for talking
But who'd be safe had best be walking
This hasty councel and conclusion
Seem'd harsh to those who had no shoes on
And saw no flames and heard no clatter
But as I had rehears'd the matter
And wildly talk't of fire and water
For sooner then 'thas took to tell it
Right applications did repell it
And now my fear our mirth creating
Affords still subject for repeating
Whilst some deplore th'unusual folly
Some (kinder) call it melancholy
Tho' certainly the spirits sinking
Comes not from want of wit or thinking
Since Rochester all dangers hated
And left to those were harder pated.
Wendell Berry |
The Grower of Trees, the gardener, the man born to farming,
whose hands reach into the ground and sprout
to him the soil is a divine drug.
He enters into death
yearly, and comes back rejoicing.
He has seen the light lie down
in the dung heap, and rise again in the corn.
His thought passes along the row ends like a mole.
What miraculous seed has he swallowed
That the unending sentence of his love flows out of his mouth
Like a vine clinging in the sunlight, and like water
Descending in the dark?

Texans release popular kick returner J.J. Moses
Texans release popular Moses
Kick returner expendable after offseason pickups
But he couldn't outrun the inevitable.
The Texans released Moses, one of the most popular players in the team's three seasons, on Wednesday after upgrading the list of challengers for the kickoff and punt return duties this offseason.
The Texans signed unrestricted free-agent Marcellus Rivers to take Moses' spot on the roster. The need for a tight end became paramount with the loss of Bennie Joppru to a torn knee ligament earlier this week.
Moses' two-year tenure as the primary returner was marked by reliable hands (he had only one fumble in 72 punt returns) but an otherwise ineffective, unspectacular performance. The Texans failed to score a touchdown on a kickoff or punt the past two seasons and finished in the bottom half of the AFC in both categories.
Moses, 25, was expected to be a long shot during training camp this summer with the Texans placing a high priority on upgrading return talent during the offseason.
"As happens in this league, you have to make tough decisions that you feel are in the best interest of the team," coach Dom Capers said.
Among the list of candidates to replace Moses are wide receiver Reggie Swinton, newly acquired cornerback Phillip Buchanon and fourth-round selection Jerome Mathis.Capers said "several other" current players on the roster could be considered, presumably wide receivers Jabar Gaffney and Kendrick Starling and backup running back Tony Hollings. Gaffney handled kickoff duties when Moses missed the next-to-last game of the season against Jacksonville with a sprained ankle.
"Your hope is to get good competition at every position," Capers said, "and that brings out the best in everybody. We have several options."
Capers said the timing of the move was to satisfy the team's need for a fourth tight end and to give Moses the opportunity to find work. Moses, the NFL's shortest player last season at 5-6, put the Texans at a disadvantage in regards to roster flexibility with his inability to be used at wide receiver.
"We just felt J.J. was not getting any reps as a receiver," Capers said. "We thought it would be in the best interest releasing him now so he could catch on with another team."
Moses ranked 19th in punt return average (8.2 yards) and 20th on kickoffs (21.0 yards) last season. During his two seasons, Moses had some electrifying returns, although he was mostly a zig-zagging tease, and he lacked downfield speed and was prone to getting caught from behind.
Capers said he has no preference whether the kickoff and punt duties are handled by two players or one. He also wouldn't hesitate to use a starter such as Buchanon despite the risk of injury.
"We have to go through this process," Capers said. I've been around places where the return man was a starter. If that's what we think it takes to win, that's what we will do."

PHOTOSYNTHETIC ACTIVITY AND CONCENTRATION OF CHLOROPHYLLS, CAROTENOIDS, HYDROGEN PEROXIDE AND MALONDIALDEHYDE IN LOQUAT SEEDLINGS GROWING UNDER EXCESS BORON CONDITIONS
The effects of boron (B) excess on various physiological and biochemical parameters of loquat plants were investigated. For this purpose, one and a half year old loquat seedlings were grown for 147 days under hydroponic conditions. They were fertigated thrice a week with a full strength Hoaglands nutrient solution containing either 25 or 400 μM B. At the end of the experiment, gas exchange parameters (photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, water use efficiency) were measured in the top and basal leaves of six plants per treatment. Afterwards, appropriate samples from the top leaves were taken for the determination of chlorophyll, carotenoid, hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations. None of the photosynthetic parameters measured in basal leaves were affected by B concentration in the nutrient solution with the exception of transpiration rate that decreased under high B. In contrast, photosynthetic and transpiration rates as well as water use efficiency of top leaves were all significantly reduced under excess B conditions. Moreover, the concentrations of chlorophylls (a, b, a+b, a/b), carotenoids and hydrogen peroxide in the top leaves were unaffected by B treatments. However, excess B conditions caused a two-fold increase of MDA concentrations in the top leaves. In conclusion, B toxicity seems to affect negatively the transpiration rate of leaves prior to the photosynthetic rate. Moreover, the reduction of photosynthesis, at least at the initial stages of B toxicity stress, was mainly due to non-stomatal factors.

You may have heard about the benefits of CBD as a muscle balm or for joint pain. But did you know that, according to a survey conducted by The Arthritis Foundation, 29 % of people with arthritis in America use CBD to help relieve their symptoms? Of those surveyed who use it, 55 % apply topical CBD creams on their sore joints. Taking this into account, it’s no wonder why so many people are asking themselves “Does CBD help with arthritis?”. In this post, we give you some keys.
Is CBD Good for Arthritis?
Unfortunately, arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the United States. Around 58.5 million people suffer from it in the country, and there are many types that can cause different symptoms, so it is quite reductionist to just talk about arthritis as a single disease. However, for the sake of this post, we’re going to focus on rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, the most common types.
CBD is a compound of the cannabis plant. It is not psychoactive, so it is not responsible for the ‘high’ typically associated with marijuana. This component is actually very popular among the Americans: 14 % of them use it, mainly to relieve pain. So it was only a matter of time before the scientific community started conducting research on the relationship between CBD and pain.
Several studies with animals have been conducted to clarify the effectiveness of CBD for arthritis. According to this research, CBD can help with pain relief, it is anti-inflammatory, and it can also help improve sleep and reduce anxiety. However, these are not conclusive, and more studies need to be carried out to scientifically prove that CBD helps with arthritis in humans.
How does CBD Help with Arthritis?
Some partial studies have been conducted on humans, such as a 2017 study that concluded that CBD might be safe for humans to reduce joint pain related to osteoarthritis; another study from 2016 found that the topical application of CBD can potentially relieve pain and inflammation.
These, together with the fact that many people suffering from this condition use CBD on a daily basis, gives us hope and make us believe that we may have found a very helpful tool for people suffering from chronic pain. However, more research needs to be conducted in order to get conclusive evidence on its benefits.
So, how does CBD help with arthritis? What is the science behind this? Well, there is a scientific explanation. Cannabinoids, such as CBD, interact with the receptors that influence pain and inflammation in our body, and some scientists believe that these receptors react to the presence of CBD by actually reducing both inflammation and pain. This may be the reason why many patients find relief when they apply CBD cream on their painful joints.
CBD Creams for Arthritis
Despite all of this, it is important to underline that CBD creams for arthritis are not a substitute to treatment, just an aid with pain and inflammation. In fact, if you decide to try CBD gels, you should talk to your doctor to make sure that it does not interfere with your medication. At the end of the day, the answer to the question “Does CBD help with arthritis?” for you will depend on your specific situation and the type of condition you have.
Most people using CBD creams for arthritis find more benefits than downsides, and don’t experience any kind of side effects, but you should always start little by little and see how it works for you.
In this sense, it is important to buy quality products that are lab-certified and safe for your health. With any luck, you’ll find relieve in our CBD massage gel that has a cooling and then warming effect, which is perfect for muscle and joint pain. We hope it helps!
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us: we are happy to help.

Two weeks ago, we wrote here of an ancient whale graveyard in Chile that also contained fossils of aquatic sloths. At the time, we made a mental note to learn more about these ancient cousins of one of the most charismatic creatures on Earth today.
Researchers in France must have read our minds, because this week they published a study in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B about aquatic sloths. Yes!
The study examines Peruivan fossils dating from eight-to-four million years ago. The French team looked at all five species of the aquatic sloth genus Thalassocnus, examining their bones using CT scans, trying to determine when and how the arboreal animals became aquatic, as Wired puts it,
reversing the evolutionary trend that saw our distant ancestors emerge from the sea and colonize the land.
In 2007, Brian Switek, the great writer about fossils, suggested the likely reason for the shift:
the sloths seemed to live on a coast backed by desert, deserts providing poor opportunities for browsing or obtaining food. The coast provided much more food in terms of sea grass, kelp, or other plants, and so the sloths were adapted to become more and more efficient at getting their food from the sea.
The trick for that efficiency, according to the French team’s CT scans, might have been depth. They found the fossilized bones were much denser than present-day sloth bones. This makes sense because heavier bones make aquatic life easier (think of divers’ weight belts). The team compares this bone density to that of present day marine mammals like manatees and dugongs. Like those large sea creatures, the aquatic sloths grazed on seaweed, and this deeper-diving ability gave the sloths more options.
The study explains that this adaptation from terrestrial to marine life occurred gradually, over a period of four million years. So what caused their extinction? Perhaps colder ocean temperatures were to blame, but more research is needed.
More aquatic sloth studies, please!

Gas-phase production and photoelectron spectroscopy of the smallest fullerene, C20
It is shown that the cage-structured fullerene C20 can be produced from its perhydrogenated form (dodecahedrane C20H 20) by replacing the hydrogen atoms with relatively weakly bound bromine atoms, followed by gas-phase debromination.
Kroto and charisma
A vision of a dome led to the naming of buckminsterfullerene. This carbon cluster has become an icon for chemistry, thanks to the media-friendly appeal it shares with co-discoverer Sir Harry Kroto.

- Roadhog is an unorthodox tank who focuses on trying to make the enemy team less of a problem either by using his Chain Hook to easily eliminate someone, or using Whole Hog to knock back the enemy team.
- Roadhog has the highest base health in the game, with 600, only being behind Winston during Primal Rage, which is 1000.
- Roadhog's abilities have low cooldowns, making him a great tank for quickly eliminating the enemy team and staying alive.
- Use your left-click to eliminate an enemy you have caught with your Chain Hook
- The right-click is good for shooting at a choke point the enemy team is at to significantly harm them
- The Scrap Gun has a low ammo count and a slower reload time. Make sure you don't go head-to-head with the enemy team without a full amount of ammo.
- The Scrap Gun is also slow firing, so make sure you don't miss your shots.
- The Scrap Gun reload animation can be canceled for a slightly faster reload. When Roadhog pushes his shells into the barrel of his Scrap Gun, pressing the melee attack will cancel the remaining animation allowing the player for a faster firing rate for the Roadhog and allowing him to strike a nearby enemy.
- This ability has a 8-second cooldown, making it a good thing to use whenever you need to kill someone.
- Chain Hook does 30 damage on hit. That plus Scrap Gun's left-click (up to 225) and a melee hit, deals 305 damage, killing most unbuffed heroes in the game.
Take a Breather
- This ability heals for 300 health, making it better than a large health pack.
- Use this ability if you're low on health and you can't find a health pack.
- If a support is healing you and you're really low on health, save the time for the support by using this.
- If you haven't lost that much health, you might just want to find a health pack or ignore it.
Ultimate: Whole Hog
- This ability knocks anyone you hit back, making good when reducing the power of a big push and throwing their aim off.
- Using the knockback on certain maps, such as Watchpoint: Gibraltar's first and last area, can be good to get rid of the defending team and push.
- You can't use any other abilities during Whole Hog, so make sure a Mercy or Zarya is helping you.
Roadhog is a ruthless killer with a well-earned reputation for cruelty and wanton destruction.
After the Omnic Crisis, government officials gifted the Australian omnium and the surrounding area to the omnics that had nearly destroyed their country, hoping to establish a long-term peace accord. This arrangement permanently displaced Mako Rutledge and a large number of the Outback's residents, a scattered collection of survivalists, solar farmers, and people who just wanted to be left alone.
Furious over the loss of their homes, Mako and others turned to violent rebellion. They formed the Australian Liberation Front and struck against the omnium and its robot population to take back the lands that had been stolen. Events continued to escalate until the rebels sabotaged the omnium's fusion core, resulting in an explosion that destroyed the facility, irradiated the region, and littered the Outback with twisted metal and wreckage for kilometers around.
Mako watched as his home became an apocalyptic wasteland, and he was forever changed.
Adapting to his environment, he donned a mask and took to the broken highways of the Outback on his ramshackle chopper. Little by little, his humanity was forgotten. The last vestiges of Mako faded away and the ruthless killer Roadhog was born.

SATURDAY 19 JUNE
Race of the day
The Hardwicke Stakes (3.40) looks an intriguing renewal, with last year’s dual Group 1-winning heroine Wonderful Tonight slated to make her seasonal reappearance. Aidan O’brien looks sure to play a strong hand, with Broome, Japan, Mogul and Tiger Moth all possible runners at this stage. Logician, the 2019 St Leger winner, Ilaraab (left), seeking a seventh straight win, and impressive last-start winner Hukum are others in the mix in a potentially strong race.
Bet of the day
Who else but Dettori as he bids to round off the week on a winning note via the Dermot Weld-trained Falcon Eight (6.10), who may well prove a penalty-kick at the weights as he bids to follow up his victory in the Chester Cup last month.
Falcon Eight has that ability to switch off and then quicken when asked and, with stamina his forte, he has an awful lot going for him in this race.

Article by Meredith Keeve a.k.a. The Wandering Parisian
Those of us who remember the fashions of the 70s and 80s remember French Haute Couture and Ready to Wear couturier Yves Saint Laurent and his unparalleled and unprecedented use of colour. Navy and black; orange and red; pink and orange – these unusual combinations made the most traditional tailoring extremely exciting. These extraordinary combinations made the designer, unambiguously, one of fashion’s greatest colourists .
While current designer (for the renamed SAINT LAURENT) Anthony Vaccarello’s vision may at times have been controversial, his 2020 collection, shown recently during Paris Fashion Week, is clearly inspired by YSL’s colour palette.
As the photos illustrate (photos taken from the FASHIONNETWORK.com site) the successful mix of colour is about tone, hue and value, the shade and the intensity of the colours used need to work together and complement one another. Another factor is the use of varying textures: leather, latex, chiffon and wool all play off of one another adding depth to their differences.
If you wore it first time around……..
For women over fifty: one should be aware of the dictum that if you were around to see it the first time, you should not wear it the second time…
However, as fashion is both endlessly new and endlessly cyclical it is key to choose the elements that are most flattering to you: while you may not choose the transparent braless look worn by the runway models, certainly the blazer/blouse combos in bright colours might be fabulous with silver hair or on a fifty plus woman no matter what her hair colour. You might also skip the latex leggings with which many of the looks are shown on the runway, but a suede or leather trouser or skirt from previous seasons might complete your look brilliantly with a more subtle appeal.
Remember being fashionable is not about slavish copying of runway looks, but rather about incorporating details from current seasons into a look that you find both flattering and comfortable.
One last point about Yves Saint Laurent:
You may be aware that the former studio and couture house on the Avenue Marceau has become a museum devoted to the designer. Changing exhibits include the upcoming exhibition on Betty Catroux, the famous muse of the designer. Talk about stylish!

On Saturday (Aug. 12), I. Nyoman Wenten, faculty member of The Herb Alpert School of Music at CalArts and accomplished Balinese dancer and musician, performs with artist and composer Aaron Taylor Kuffner at the Hammer Museum in Westwood. Wenten will present Balinese-inspired dance movements for an improvisational Gamelatron sound piece by Kuffner. The 30-minute sets take place at 2 pm and 4 pm, and admission is free.
The Gamelatron is a handcrafted instrument that combines the traditional Indonesian Gamelan with robotic technology. The Gamelatron installed at the Hammer Museum is titled, Gamelatron Bunganya Dewa (“Flowers of the Gods” in Indonesian), and is made of five sculptural instruments that play daily site-responsive compositions written by Kuffner. The installation, which is intended to be a sanctuary-like space for visitors, opened June 3, and closes August 13.
Kuffner has built more than 40 Gamelatrons in varying forms, and produced works for a diverse range of venues such as the Smithsonian Institute, The Joshua Tree Music Festival and Burning Man.
Wenten, a celebrated musician and performer and longtime CalArts faculty member, has traveled the world giving lectures, teaching workshops, and performing. One of his recent collaborations includes rehearsing and performing for two weeks in Bali with the company Rhapsody in Taps and 25 members of the CalArts’ Balinese gamelan Burat Wangi.

‘How the hell did Carrie Bradshaw manage to live her life?’ is probably the most frequently (frustratingly) asked question among my friends and I whenever we discuss Sex and the City. If we sidestep the fact that despite poignantly resonating with so many women, the TV show is indeed a work of fiction, let’s be real. Carrie wrote a column every now and again. And until she conveniently got that book deal towards the end of the programme’s six-season run, we’ll hazard a very sensible guess and say that she definitely couldn’t have afforded that beautiful one bedroom apartment on the Upper East Side.
And while we all quite happily live vicariously through Carrie’s frivolous spending on shoes, brunches and an incalculable number of taxis (on account of the fancy shoes, you see), when it came to the ‘Ring A Ding Ding’ episode in series four, the majority of us groaned, rolled our eyes and lost a lot of time for Miss Carrie Bradshaw.
WATCH: How To Deal With A Big Bush
‘Ring A Ding Ding’ is the episode where Carrie and Aidan (poor Aidan) have the opportunity to buy her apartment but can’t because, as Miranda points out, Carrie has spent something like $40,000 on shoes and can’t afford it. She goes to Mr Big for money (big mistake), gets aggy with Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha about it (wildly unnecessary) and fails to grasp the cause and effect of her life. You know, simple grown-up stuff that low key enrages the rest of us out here scraping pennies together to try and buy something from the spennier side of ASOS’s shoe collection.
Nevertheless, that happened. Charlotte ends up giving Carrie her engagement ring for a down payment. People got annoyed about it and we all moved on (kind of).
15 years have passed and Amy Harris, Sex and the City’s writer and produce has tried to explain Carries shitty handling of money and that diabolical episode. Amy told CNBC that the money stuff was the biggest divider among the SATC team. ‘The biggest fight we ever got into in the writers’ room was about the money,’ she said. ‘That was a very big debate’.
But Amy stands by the way that Carrie’s controversial finances were handled. Speaking about this particular episode, she said: ‘If people were pissed and hated that Carrie did that, I’m OK with that’.
We can all relate to being rubbish at saving, relying on overdrafts and mismanaging credit cards. God knows we don’t have much of a choice in the current climate here in the UK. But I’d like to think that most of us aren’t screwing ourselves out of mortgage deposits because of a ridiculous (though enviable, I’ll admit) shoe collection. And even more importantly, I’m pretty sure that if I treated my mates that way and demanded a shit load of money for my flat after having pissed off one ex-boyfriend, run to another ex-boyfriend and completely ignored all of the equally important stuff they had going on, they’d tell me to fuck off.
As Charlotte so carefully put: ‘Carrie, I love you. But it is not my job to fix your finances. You are a thirty-five-year-old woman. You have to learn how to stand on your own.’
‘Sarah Jessica and I talked about this: We believe she paid her back’, Amy added. ‘It was a loan, not a gift, so she did have to learn to save a little, to not spend everything on shoes and clothes’. Anyone else super sceptical of this? Carrie Bradshaw isn’t the most conscientious of characters and if we know Carrie (which we’ve decided we do) poor Charlotte won’t have seen that money for a long time. We had two more series to see that no, Carrie didn’t learn her financial lesson, she just continued to dress fabulously and be a bit of a dick to her mates.

Landrieu Pushing Legislation To Prevent Health Insurance Cancellations From Obamacare, Still Supports ACA
Senator Mary Landrieu says she will be introducing legislation to make sure anyone who likes their health care plan can keep it if the wish under Obamacare, but she still supports the law.
This comes after reports have come out saying that those who wanted to keep their insurance policies are getting cancelled by insurance companies because they aren't compliant with the Affordable Care Act, despite repeated promises from the Obama administration that "if you like your plan, you can keep it, period."
Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon said about 80,000 Louisiana policyholders will lose their policies because of Obamacare. Landrieu's legislation would allow policyholders to keep their insurance as long as they kept paying their premiums.
Landrieu also made it clear that she does still support the Affordable Care Act, but she agrees with many that it needs work.

Thailand Could Serve As Model For Elimination Of Mother-To-Child HIV Transmission, Review Says

Noutang Patrick, a Cameroonian, is now being held at the Bonanjo judicial police station, for publicly criticising the nation’s president, Paul Biya.
When Patrick made the remarks, which were overheard by undercover investigators, he was at a pub with friends.
Patrick was subsequently charged with being an Ambazonian terrorist by the agents, who then phoned the police.
Patrick disputed the accusations, claiming that he was only venting his anger at the administration. He said he was inebriated at the time and had no malicious intent.
Outrage after arrest
Patrick’s detention has incensed human rights activists, who assert that it violates his right to free speech. They demanded both his release and a probe of the events leading up to his detention.
“Really disgusting. Instead of utilising this energy to track down the killers who operate in the two largest cities in the nation, they choose to hurt the law-abiding individuals who strive for the welfare of all… Look at the perilous conditions in which some guys in uniform live, wrote Facebook user Désormais Dubril.
Where is the right to free speech? Has critiquing the regime come to mean disregarding moral principles? Romeo Nyamsi’s reaction to this was questioned.
Some have criticised the secret agents for overreacting. Paul Biya personally won’t go after anyone who criticises him.
Defending the arrest, the secret agents claimed that Patrick’s remarks were seditious and may have incited violence. Additionally, they stated that while they are devoted to defending the right to free speech, it must be used properly.
Although some people oppose such an arrest, others claim it will serve as a lesson to others.
“Youths are out drinking, getting wasted, and blaming Biya for their laziness instead of concentrating on finding jobs,” remarked Lauresse Mbida.
Freedom of speech impossible!
This is not the first time a Cameroonian has been arrested for questioning Paul Biya’s leadership.
Patrick’s case serves as a reminder of the difficulties facing Cameroonian freedom of expression. Free speech has historically been restricted in the nation, and the executive branch has been charged with exploiting the legal system to stifle criticism.
The situation involving Patrick serves as a reminder of the value of standing up against injustice. Many journalists and regular citizens have been detained and imprisoned for speaking out against Biya and his government. Even fatalities have occurred.
Cameroon is what form of democratic Cameroon? What actually happened to the right to free speech?
