Along Came Claire
Life is full of surprises and everything happens for a reason. Or so they say . . .
Living in a small town, Spencer and Claire were bound to bump in to one another. Their first meeting didn’t go off too well. But in more ways than one it served its purpose. She had her lock-up, and he had another rental. The chemistry seemed to sizzle and pop in the air. And they definitely took notice of each other! As scarce as she was, he knew she had to renew her rental agreement sooner or later. He would have to bide his time and wait.
In his own way, Spencer had it all. His businesses were all thriving enterprises, and his daughter was his world. He hadn’t even had a chance at romance. When he was married, love and romance didn’t seem to feature.
Claire was a no-nonsense military woman. Always in a war zone, there was no time to spend on a relationship. Well, it was something she never considered. Friendship, to her, was important. At heart, she was your typical woman. Cooking, gardening and pottering about at home were important. And when she could, she did.
But life is full of surprises and there definitely was a surprise in store for them!

A Celtic warrior princess accused of treason for aiding her enemy lover must win back her father’s love and trust
In the rich and vibrant tale, Author Linnea Tanner continues the story of Catrin and Marcellus that began with the awarding-winning novel APOLLO’S RAVEN in the Curse of Clansmen and Kings Series. Book 2: DAGGER’S DESTINY sweeps you into an epic tale of forbidden love, mythological adventure, and political intrigue in Ancient Rome and Britannia.
War looms over 24 AD Britannia where rival tribal rulers fight each other for power and the Romans threaten to invade to settle their political differences. King Amren accuses his daughter, Catrin, of treason for aiding the Roman enemy and her lover, Marcellus. The ultimate punishment is death unless she can redeem herself. She must prove loyalty to her father by forsaking Marcellus and defending their kingdom—even to the death. Forged into a warrior, she must overcome tribulations and make the right decisions on her quest to break the curse that foretells her banished half-brother and the Roman Empire will destroy their kingdom.
Yet, when Catrin again reunites with Marcellus, she is torn between her love for him and duty to King Amren. She must ultimately face her greatest challenger who could destroy her life, freedom, and humanity.
Will Catrin finally break the ancient prophecy that looms over her kingdom? Will she abandon her forbidden love for Marcellus to win back her father’s trust and love? Can King Amren balance his brutality to maintain power with the love he feels for Catrin?

The government of Qatar and its people should be under no illusion of the resolve of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states to ensure that Doha ends its dangerous liaisons and flirtations with men of terror. Whether it is through their finances or fidelity, Qatar must end its association with these destructive and dangerous groups and individuals, and honour its commitments to the GCC states — not just in hollow words, but in a genuine spirit of determination in deeds to end the threat of terrorism and extremism.
The leadership in Qatar must be honest too in its dealings now with the international community and explain why it is the subject of a coordinated and determined action by the GCC states. That explanation to others must make clear that it is the subject of — and will continue to be — an international boycott. It’s also wrong for Qatari officials to interpret this boycott as a blockade — to do so plays fast and loose with the truth.
There is an important and very real distinction between the words and actions associated with and integral to both “boycott” and “blockade”.
The GCC states have imposed a boycott. The terrestrial crossing with Saudi Arabia is closed — as is the right of the kingdom to do so. Equally, it is also the sovereign right of the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to close their respective airspace to any plane of any nation as these nations deem fit. And in this instance, all three sovereign nations have chosen to shut their airspaces to planes belonging to Qatar Airways. In essence, these are the legitimate coordinated actions integral to the “boycott” until Qatar sees reason and effects real change by ending its funding and support to terrorists.
These actions, however, do not amount to a “blockade”, and for Qatar, its representatives on the international stage, its media or its apologists to deliberately mislead, alter or offer and alternative truth is simply wrong. A “blockade” infers that there are military forces at play, its aircraft grounded, its ports shut down by naval vessels. This is a deliberate attempt by Qatar, its officials and its media conglomerate, to distort the situation.
The reality is that Qatar is not cut off — its planes are still flying, its ports are open. If anything, its deliberate misuse of language exemplifies the very nature of the issue now highlighted by the UAE and its brothers.

The 2017 English translation of this stirring diary of a pastor’s wife in the Netherlands during WWII was a good thing waiting to happen. Andrew Healey, an Australian (with considerable knowledge of the Dutch language) took it upon himself to translate Johanna Ader-Appels’ autobiographical book, A Groninger Pastorie in de Storm (T. Wever B.V., 1947). The title goes something like this: A parsonage in northern Holland (Groningen) in stormy weather. This riveting book was translated into German and Finnish but never into English. In Dutch it saw 13 editions over the years!
Early in January 2017, Andrew sent me a copy. The chosen title is House of Defiance: One Family’s Stand against the Holocaust published in the U.K. by Mirador Publishing. I was thrilled with the appearance of this 456-page book and especially with the quality of Andrew’s translation. It is also available on Amazon.
I was 10 years old in the year 1944, and I remember seeing trains with long rows of cattlewagons coming through Winschoten, where I lived in the Netherlands. Only later did I learn the truth . . . that one of those trains carried Anne Frank and her family, and thousands of others, to Nazi death camps like Auschwitz, Bergen Belsen, Sobibor and Theresienstadt.
My town was only minutes away from Nieuw Beerta in the eastern part of the province of Groningen, in the north of the Netherlands. The town of Nieuweschans, at the German border, was also very near. The train station there was the last stop in Holland for the German-bound trains carrying thousands upon thousands of Jews rounded up by the Nazis. They would first be kept in the Nazi holding camp of Westerbork, about 50 kilometres away.
Bastiaan Jan Ader and Johanna Ader-Appels moved into the spacious parsonage near the Reformed Church in Nieuw Beerta in 1938. They welcomed two children there. Basjan was born in 1942 in my hometown, Winschoten. Erik was born in 1944. Sadly, by then Bastiaan, his dad, was pining away in the notorious Gestapo jail on the Weteringschans in Amsterdam. After years of intense involvement in the Dutch underground resistance, Bastiaan had finally been caught by the Nazis. He never returned home again and he never knew little baby Erik.
The courage to help
The Aders became involved in the underground movement when a former acquaintance of Jo, of Jewish origin, asked the family if she could come to stay in Nieuw Beerta to hide from the Germans. It was the beginning of the Aders’ courageous work saving many, many people from certain death. Bastiaan’s underground name became “Domie” (the Dutch word for reverend is “dominee,” hence “Domie.”) His wife was simply referred to by many as Tante (Auntie) Jo.
All during the war, the parsonage became a haven for all the people who were brought by Domie from cities throughout the land. He travelled extensively, by train or bike, keeping in touch with other resistance leaders. He concealed his identity, often wearing workers’ clothes and disguising his features. He and some of his trusted church elders performed miracles inside the large parsonage, creating hiding places and underground passages. Amazingly, the church community never knew anything of what transpired in that house during the war!
Notably, Yad Vashem, the Jerusalem-based holocaust martyrs’ and heroes’ remembrance authority, reckons the Nieuw Beerta parsonage managed to save between 200 and 300 Jewish compatriots.
Resistance and sabotage
Johanna Ruth Dobschiner, a young Jewish girl from Amsterdam, was contacted by Domie and taken up north. The Grüne Polizei had taken her parents and a brother away. She escaped by hiding in a secret cove in her Amsterdam home. She never saw her family again.
This young girl, hiding at the parsonage in Nieuw Beerta, also started a diary of her time there and what happened to her afterwards. Her underground name was “Hansie.” The book she wrote, Selected to Live, was published in 1969. It is a powerful testimony of her courage and how she left the Jewish faith after accepting Jesus Christ as her Lord and Saviour. (Note: Years ago I wrote an article about Domie and Hansie online. Here is the link: http://sensedejong.newmaker.net/Sense/DomieAndHansie.shtml)
How sad it was to read that in 1944 someone of the “non-pure” Groningers (i.e. friends of the Nazis) exposed the Aders for concealing Jews in their home. These betrayers often collected a reward for revealing the Jews’ whereabouts to the occupiers. The Grüne Polizei raided the place and, unfortunately, found some of those in their hiding places. They were transported to Germany never to be seen again. The Germans subsequently raided the parsonage, stealing what they could find and forcing Tante Jo and her two babies to live elsewhere. The parsonage was later demolished.
Letters from prison
But what about Domie? He, too, was betrayed and walked into a trap. He was abused, if not tortured, in that awful Gestapo jail located on the Weteringschans in Amsterdam.
From there he wrote beautiful letters to his wife, which testified to his strong faith and the knowledge that his Father in heaven would always be there and would take care of him and his family. He wrote long epistles on rolls of toilet paper with a bit of a pencil. These were smuggled out by trusted members of the Dutch police to his wife. A selection of them are published in this book.
At that time of his incarceration, the Allied Forces were already in the south of the Netherlands. Domie was told by his friends among the Dutch police that the day of liberation was near, and that he would likely be freed soon. However, at that time, the Dutch Resistance had again been very active, making the Nazis furious! In retaliation the Germans announced they would pick six hostages from various jails. They picked three from a Utrecht prison and three from the Weteringschans jail. And, yes, Domie, was one of them. All six of them were taken to a remote part in a forest and summarily shot.
Their bodies were left behind in the pouring rain. Some residents of nearby Veenendaal found them there and gave them a proper burial.
While still in Amsterdam, Domie spent his last days talking to other prisoners, reading God’s word to them, praying to take comfort and assuring them of the promises of his coming kingdom.
When later they dug up the bodies for reburial, they found in Domie’s sack a Bible full of notes and a hymn book with his wife’s name in it and a few letters. That’s how they identified the body. In the hymn book Domie had put a crease through the last verses of a hymn:
No sparrow falls on earth without Your will
And Lord, my heart finds comfort and is still
Because You watch with care o’re all my ways.
So God, my shield and help shall surely be
Nought do I fear in sky, on earth and sea,
He maketh all things good throughout my days.

Biomind Labs Inc. (NEO: BMND | OTC: BMNDF | FSE: 3XI), a leading biotech company focused on developing the next generation of pharmaceuticals to treat patients suffering from neurological and psychiatric disorders by scientifically harnessing the medicinal power of psychedelic molecules, is pleased to announce the receipt of a Controlled Substances License and the commencement of an eight-month project to produce and evaluate novel rapidly-dissolving and sustained-release hydrogel-forming microneedle arrays designed for the transdermal delivery of Biomind’s key psychedelic compounds: N, N-dimethyltryptamine (‘DMT’), 5-methoxyN,N-dimethyltryptamine (‘5-MeO-DMT’) and mescaline.
‘As we continue expanding our operations in the United Kingdom, partnering with Queen’s University of Belfast, a global leader in rapidly-dissolving and sustained-release hydrogel-forming microneedles, can provide us with a first mover advantage in offering a novel drug delivery system where the release can be controlled. Such a disruptive drug delivery approach can go beyond a full psychedelic experience, allowing us to broaden our total addressable market. We could potentially be talking about the next generation treatment for inflammation, pain and neurodegenerative disorders, by way of a comfortable drug delivery solution with a strong emphasis on improving therapeutic outcomes for patients. Our exclusive agreement with Queen’s University of Belfast can strengthen our intellectual property portfolio based on three of our key psychedelic compounds: DMT, 5-MeO-DMT and mescaline.’Alejandro Antalich, CEO of Biomind Labs
The use of polymeric microneedle array patches is an attractive way of delivering drugs through the skin. Upon MAP application, microneedles painlessly penetrate the outer layer of the skin, creating temporary microchannels in this highly effective barrier to diffusion, through which enhanced transdermal drug delivery can be achieved. Given the presence of a dense network of blood vessels in the deeper layers of the skin, drugs can be absorbed into the plasmatic circulation and distributed to the entire body, producing a systemic effect. Additional advantages of this technology, such as the avoidance of first-pass metabolism and drug delivery in a rate-controlled or long-acting manner, can serve to reduce the incidence of side-effects and dosing frequency, which in turn may lead to increased treatment adherence.
About Biomind Labs Inc.
Biomind Labs is a biotech research and development company aimed at transforming biomedical sciences knowledge into novel pharmaceutical drugs and innovative nanotech delivery systems for a variety of psychiatric and neurological conditions. Through its acceleration platform, Biomind Labs is developing novel pharmaceutical formulations of the main psychedelic molecules, DMT, 5-MeO-DMT and mescaline for treating a wide range of therapeutic indications.

That's a nice looking WJ in the first link and is just about what I'm looking for. I am hoping to find one with 120k max miles, and have seen a few out of state with around 65k miles.
Yes, Jon, I had a 2000 Laredo with the 4.7L V8 and really liked it (also had the '06 with 5.7L Hemi). I'm hoping to find the right WJ to replace the Tundra as a daily driver, then give it to my youngest son for his vehicle in a couple of years. We are relocating to North Dakota soon and think that will be the best vehicle for the money. Yeah, North Dakota. Anything to get out of Los Angeles...
Funny you posted this.... I am looking at that WJ in the link tomorrow. We have been looking for a WJ the past couple of weeks. Test drove another nice one today (Limited with the HO motor, not overland) at a dealer. Price was a little high but it was nice and drove well. I won't comment on the price here as I haven't seen it but running the numbers on KBB, they can vary quite a bit depending on condition and options. It looks like this overland has some aftermarket stuff which could be why they are asking more.
You MUST verify that the cooling system has been maintained. All wj's want HOAT coolant, it is pink/orange in color. Verify that the engine was never overheated... They drop valve seats. Aluminum head, steel seat.
Make sure the trans fluid looks good, hopefully bright red in color. The 545RFE is a good trans, but maintenance goes a long way. They take atf4.
And Kelly- find a 2004, hopefully later production, especially if going for a limited or overland. The blend doors like to fair, and they fixed the hvac system early 2004 model year, (late 2003 production.)

Excuse me DJBooth readers, but I’d like to take a moment to address Rihanna and Jay Z directly. Thanks. Rihanna, Jay..can I call you Jay? Great, thanks Jay. No pressure guys, but the last time you got together (Run This Town) you went double platinum, and the time before that (Umbrella) you went triple platinum. So yeah, it’s fair to say that expectations for your new collaborative effort and title track Talk That Talk are higher than Wiz Khalifa in Amsterdam. You’re certainly not taking the single lightly, recruiting mega-producers Stargate for a bouncing, pounding beat that will get spins everywhere from the clubs to high school proms. Vocally Jay lays down some, well, not exactly typical stunting (word to bladder references) on an opening verse while Rihanna laces the cut with her usual blend of lightly melodic melodies and dirty talk. So how about it DJBooth Nation – will this be the latest in a long string or Rihanna and Hova mega-hits? If so sales of Ri Ri’s upcoming album, Talk That Talk, should be stellar when it drops next week, November 18.

UPDATE - Media Release - Public Assembly Last Night
SANTA BARBARA, CA – September 20, 2023
Over the last several days Santa Barbara Police Detectives have been investigating the incident that occurred in this recent social media video. As a result of the investigation, Detectives referred the case to the Santa Barbara District Attorney’s Office for their consideration of the following criminal charges against Jeanne Terese Umana; Trespassing, Battery on a Person, and Hate Crime.
SANTA BARBARA, CA – September 18, 2023
Last night, September 17, 2023, around 8:00 p.m., the Santa Barbara Police Department became aware of a large gathering occurring near the intersection of Garden Street and East Micheltorena Street. This gathering was in response to a disturbing video of an interaction between two individuals posted on social media.
In the video, a woman stated, “I work for the police.” The woman has no affiliation with the Santa Barbara Police Department and the police department does not condone her behavior.
During the gathering, the group walked to the front of the Santa Barbara Police Department and continued to express outrage over the troubling video. After a short while, the group returned to the area of Garden and East Micheltorena Street and dispersed.
The video posted on social media understandably stirred emotions and reactions within our community. The Santa Barbara Police Department monitored the gathering and supports the right for all individuals to peacefully assemble in order to voice their concerns.

HOUSTON, Nov. 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Sandvik, a developer and producer of advanced stainless steels, special alloys, titanium and other high-performance materials, exhibited at the 18th annual Rio Oil & Gas Expo and Conference, the largest oil and gas event in Latin America, which was held from Oct. 24-27, in Rio de Janeiro.
At the show, Sandvik presented its wide range of corrosion-resistant products including umbilical tubing, downhole casing and production (OCTG) tubing, downhole control lines, hydraulic lines for drilling risers, tubing for sand screens, subsea piping material, welding products, and slicklines. The Sandvik booth also displayed the complex components of powder metallurgy hot isostatic pressing (HIP) for subsea equipment.
According to Nigel Haworth, global business unit head of oil and gas, Brazil continues to be an important market for the company, where it has a regional office as well as a facility that was opened more than a year ago, to further enhance its products in the oil and gas market.
The facility, situated in Rio de Janeiro, can encapsulate flatpacks, perform flushing and filling of tubes, hydrostatic testing, re-spool lines to cut-to-length, color code tubes, and other services. The facility was set up with the aim to expand Sandvik's presence in the region and be situated where the company's main customers have their bases.
Since then, Sandvik has supplied around 420 km of flatpacks, including more than 1,310 km of tubes and TEC to pre-salt projects in Brazil. The Libra oil field in the Santos Basin is the most promising oil field in Brazil, and Sandvik has supplied 100% of the control lines and chemical injection lines for the Long Duration Test (LDT) phase.
"Our expansion in Brazil is part of Sandvik's strategy to strengthen our position in the oil and gas market, bolster the growing control lines market and invest in high-level services for our customers. Beginning last year, we have supplied control lines and chemical injection tubes with local content from the facility. We also deliver coated umbilical tubing right from Brazil meeting local Brazilian content. This is a very important factor to tackling conditions specific to the local industry," says Leandro Finzetto, regional sales manager, oil & gas, Americas.
"Sandvik's commitment to the market is to provide customized solutions and meet the challenges of offshore production. We were very excited to exhibit our high-performance products, which represent a major leap in technology, and to introduce the first duplex stainless steels by Sandvik in pre-salt projects. We enjoyed meeting everyone at the show and are looking forward to continuing these new and existing relationships," said Leandro.
The Sandvik booth also showcased more information about the local facility as well as the products and services it provides. For further information on Sandvik, please visit the website: http://www.smt.sandvik.com.
Sandvik is a world-leading developer and manufacturer of products in advanced stainless steels and special alloys for the most demanding environments, as well as products and systems for industrial heating.

The bipartisan legislation to establish a federal privacy law in the United States – the American Data Privacy and Protection Act – moves through Congress. Meanwhile, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has now taken steps to address issues related to commercial data. Read on to learn how you can potentially influence the data privacy direction of the FTC’s work.
On August 11, 2022, the FTC announced that it seeks public comment regarding its Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“ANPR”). It asks a series of questions related to commercial surveillance and data security. An ANPR signals to the public that the FTC is considering an area for rulemaking and requests written comments on its appropriate scope or on specific topics. It provides an opportunity for concerned stakeholders to weigh in on which questions deserve the FTC’s consideration and which direction the FTC should take.
For purposes of this ANPR, the FTC defines “commercial surveillance” as the business of collecting, analyzing and profiting from consumer data.
The FTC seeks comment on whether the Commission should implement new rules governing the ways in which companies (1) collect, aggregate, protect, use, analyze and retain consumer data, as well as (2) transfer, share, sell or otherwise monetize consumer data in ways that are unfair or deceptive.
• To what extent do commercial surveillance practices or weak security measures harm consumers, including children and teenagers?
• How should the FTC balance the costs and benefits of existing or emerging commercial surveillance and data security practices? What would be the costs and benefits of establishing and enforcing rules to address them?
• Should the FTC regulate harmful commercial surveillance or data security practices? If it acts to do so, what would those regulations entail?
The FTC’s announcement highlights that everyday technologies enable “near constant surveillance of people’s private lives.” Further, that surveillance exposes individuals to identity thieves, as well as heightens the risks of deception and other abuses.
The European Commission’s announced in December that it has begun its process to adopt an adequacy decision for the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (the Framework). Companies seeking to transfer data from countries in the European Union to the United States will need to take steps to be in alignment with this new change.

How far behind is Google in public cloud? Pretty far behind. Amazon is obviously leading, and Microsoft is also ahead.
On past experience you’d have to reckon Google is in with a decent chance in any tech game, given how much money it can spend. But Google is so far behind, its most recent announcement looked a little desperate. It felt it had to make an announcement which was about 83 percent vapor, just in order to look like it is keeping up with the others.
It’s all about the regions
You see, at the moment, the public cloud game is all about regions. You might have enough data center oomph to satisfy your customers round the world, but you need to have it local, or at least reasonably so.
Customers want low latency, they want a fast response from their data center, so it should be fairly close by, and they also want the data held under their local laws - the current “data sovereignty” requirement.
That means you need to have data centers in each geographic region - and multiple data centers so your customers can have resilience. The more data center locations you have, the smaller you can make your regions and the better you can meet customer demands for local data storage and short access times.
You might have enough oomph to satisfy your customers, but you need it local
At the moment, Amazon has 12 regions, Microsoft Azure has 22, and Google has only four - Central and Eastern US, Western Europe and Eastern Asia. Announcing twelve more might make it seem like Google is catching up, but bear in mind two things. Firstly both Amazon and Azure already have plenty of expansion going on (ten more Azure regions are on their way in 2016, for instance).
And those Google cloud regions are pretty hazy. We have no idea where ten of them might be - Google just said they are coming somewhere, sometime next year. There are only two actual announced regions arriving this year - one in Tokyo, Japan, for which no details are given, and one in the US West, which is the only new region with solid real estate we know about.
This one is in territory Google knows - it’s in the same city as its first ever data center, opened ten years ago in The Dalles, Oregon, and is being built on land bought from the Port authority there.
Beyond that, Google’s expansion there underlines the region’s Western theme: the company has bought up some land for future use, with a resident Rodeo. The Fort Dalles Rodeo Association has been holding its summer event on land owned by an aluminum smelter for thirty years, but that land has now been sold to Google.
We’ve heard before how data centers can alienate their local constituents, but Google isn’t aiming to do that - as the cloud gets regionalized, it’s becoming a worse idea. So the cloud giant is working with the cowboys, and offering them space on the parcel of land till they find a new home, as well as helping them buy new equipment for wherever they take their show.
That’s the way to set up a region, and Google has managed it because it knows the area. Let’s see how it does with its Japanese expansion, and with whatever other regions are in the pipeline.

It’s important to understand that ants do not simply go away in the winter. The winter and early spring you’ll see high periods of egg-laying. Ants typically gravitate toward food sources that are high in protein and have strong nitrogen content. By applying active ant control during winter and early spring, you have a much better chance of avoiding late spring and summer infestations.
During the spring and summer seasons, when colonies go through periods of high larval growth, ant populations need higher qualities of carbohydrates to fuel the colony. Ants best ingest nutrients in liquid form. Therefore, water is extremely important therefore, liquid baits work very well.
Have ant colonies moved in and started taking over your home? Give us a call today to schedule your complimentary evaluation.

“My inspiration was the beauty of the world underwater, with all of its unusual forms and exotic colors, creatures, plants and corals,” says Inna. “Coral reefs are like a fairy tale filled with delightful treasures and fantastic characters. I love to snorkel in warm water, swim surrounded by fish, and explore the underwater ecosystem. In my ring, I tried to create the atmosphere of a small coral reef with shells and fish surrounded by water.”
Inna’s interest in metal clay started “I began creating jewelry back in 2007 when I was looking for jewelry to wear for a special occasion. After spending some time on the internet and in jewelry stores not being able to find what I needed, I decided to make my own — a simple but bright and bold coral set of a necklace, a ring, and earrings.
“I started with just stringing, then I moved on to more complicated gemstone beading but I felt that wasn’t challenging enough. I decided to learn wire wrapping, bead embroidery, and seed bead crochet. Then I wanted to learn how to make other elements for my beaded ropes and found metal clay – which I started learning last year by watching online videos and eventually taking master classes in Moscow at MetalClayStudio.”
“I’ve been a student of the arts my entire life and I like to think that I haven’t made my best piece yet. I’m always learning new techniques and trying new things with different materials. I really enjoy the process of creating jewellery and for me, art is a labour of love.
“My inspiration comes in all forms but nature and museums have always been great places for me to generate new ideas. Over time and after a lot of experimentation, you will develop your own unique style and create pieces you’re proud of. Even if this is just a hobby, it’s a great creative outlet and has a very high ceiling for improvement!”
Inna’s work has been published in several European magazines, including Perlen Poesie and Beads & Jewelry. One of her creations was a finalist in the Bead Dreams 2016 content.

A lot of people think blockchain technology and cryptocurrency are one in the same, but that isn’t true. Cryptocurrencies are in the headlines, but the transformative power of the underlying blockchain technology is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
One simple analogy is that the blockchain is to money as the internet is to information. It removes the friction and costs of access to the masses. But don’t confuse blockchain technology with the bitcoin-ethereum-blockchain crytocurrency. It is quite easy to be distracted by the media onslaught of coverage around virtual currencies, and more recently, Initial Coin Offerings (ICO), however, this is mostly smoke and mirrors when compared to the potential held within blockchain itself. Token technology may anchor the next web revolution, spawning crowdfunding behemoths that expedite the value delivery path to their users while cutting out the advertisers and fee-based middlemen.
The current thought model posits the question, “What can’t be tokenized?” Future research notes will explore and detail the many use cases of blockchain and how they are being put to the test with early adopters in this bleeding edge space. Big banks are embarking on programs to provide syndicated loans and the grocery supply chain has signed up with IBM to launch a blockchain-based solution to track food shipments and monitor food safety.
It all sounds mysterious, intriguing and, to be frank, easy to dismiss as so few of us really understand what blockchain technology really is and how it works. Let’s take the first steps towards closing this knowledge gap.
There are five foundational principles that underlie blockchain technologies:
- Distributed Database: All access all the time! Everyone partaking in the database can see everything in the database. This architecture provides true decentralization where there is no single point of control or failure. This transparency allows independent verification of transactions to occur without a middleman verification step.
- Peer-to-Peer Transaction: Blockchain takes the idea of “serverless computing” to a whole new level as there is no central hub for processing transaction data. All transactions are processed and stored in the nodes plugged into the network and those nodes share that data with all of the other nodes.
- Transparency with Pseudonymity: Blockchain users have the choice to remain anonymous or share their identities. However, the record itself is present and visible to all. Transactions are encrypted and assigned a unique address as the means of identification.
- Irreversibility of Records: Once a record has been transacted in the distributed ledger, it cannot be modified due to the linkage between all records (blocks) that comprise the blockchain. These records are encrypted, ordered chronologically, and visible to all.
- Computational Logic: Due to the programmatic nature of the blockchain, logic and algorithms can be applied to automate transactions between nodes upon pre-defined conditions

KABUL, Afghanistan — Concerned over the growing pattern of Afghan soldiers and police officers attacking their coalition counterparts, the American military is sending 80 counterintelligence agents to Afghanistan to help stem the threat of Taliban infiltration in the Afghan National Security Forces, military officials said Friday.
These intelligence specialists will enhance the vetting of recruits, review profiles of soldiers who are being trained and generally tighten up the procedures to identify individuals who might be vulnerable to extremists’ appeals, officials said.
Some of the agents have already arrived, and the rest are expected soon, said Lt. Col. David C. Simons, a spokesman for the NATO Training Mission in Afghanistan.
Since March 2009, at least 57 people, including 32 American troops, have been killed in at least 19 attacks in which Afghan service members have turned their weapons on coalition forces. Another 64 were wounded. The totals do not include the attackers, many of whom were killed in shootouts or in suicide blasts.
More than half of the casualties occurred in the first five months of this year, signaling an escalation in the number and intensity of the attacks. But while the Taliban often takes credit for these attacks, NATO officials say the majority of the episodes stem from disagreements and arguments that escalate into violence.Continue reading the main story
“These incidents are exacerbated by austere battlefield conditions, combat stress, fatigue and cultural misunderstandings,” Colonel Simons said.
Nonetheless, he added, “the threat of infiltration is real.”
The attacks are increasing as NATO forces are racing to train and build up the Afghan Army and the police to a force of 395,000 by 2014. The buildup is critical to American and NATO exit strategies, which include turning over all combat and security duties to the Afghan forces over the next three years. But the pace is also putting strains on Afghan agents to screen the flood of recruits.
One of the worst attacks occurred in April, when an Afghan Army pilot shot and killed eight American service members and a contractor during a meeting of foreign and Afghan officers on the military side of Kabul International Airport. At least three NATO soldiers have been killed in two attacks since then.
The attacks have continued despite efforts to improve screening of recruits and crack down on the illegal sales of police and army uniforms.
The Taliban frequently take credit for the attacks, and say they have recruited young people across the country to join the national security forces as sleeper agents. NATO officials say that they have no evidence that infiltration is widespread or that any insurgents have successfully joined the service with the intent of attacking coalition forces.
Whether the infiltration is widespread, the claims are hard to contest, and serve to shake popular confidence in the growing army and police forces.
Adding to that distrust is the problem of Afghan soldiers and police officers — and impostors dressed like them — attacking military installations and government compounds.
Afghan intelligence officials on Friday could not say how many of these attacks have happened. But the list is lengthy and growing, said Lutfullah Mashal, a spokesman for the National Directorate of Security, the main intelligence agency.
Many of the attacks involved insurgents using army or police uniforms and fake government identifications, he said. “But there were also those types of attacks in which enemies had infiltrated our national forces and then carried out the attacks, and we are seeing an increase in these attacks,” Mr. Mashal said.
Last month, an Afghan soldier with eight months on the force helped a suicide bomber obtain an army uniform and identification needed to carry out an attack inside the national military hospital, one of the worst attacks in the capital this year. The attack killed six people who were training to be medics and wounded more than 20 other people, including several medical students.
In April, a police officer who had recently joined the force entered the tightly secured police headquarters in the city of Kandahar, killing the police chief, a widely admired figure from his days as an anti-Soviet fighter.
The Security Directorate arrested nearly a dozen people this week in connection with an April suicide attack on the Defense Ministry that killed two Afghan soldiers, an Afghan intelligence officer said. The people arrested included “high-ranking” officials with the Defense Ministry and the Interior Ministry, which oversees the Afghan National Police, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the delicacy of the case.
Coalition forces sharply escalated the training of the Afghan counterintelligence agents in November, after a well-regarded Afghan border policeman opened fire on American soldiers in Nangarhar Province, killing six. The Taliban quickly claimed responsibility for the attack, but investigators now believe that the soldier acted out of personal distress, including his father’s insistence that he accept a marriage contract with a young girl.
The new American agents will presumably work with their Afghan counterparts, whose job is to identify possible insurgents among Afghan forces and to look for signs of service members who, acting either out of financial or personal stress or because of threats to their families, might fall under Taliban influence. Nearly 200 Afghan agents were in the field as of April, and that number is expected to more than double by year’s end.Continue reading the main story

The other day I highlighted Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s indefensible statement and the need for repudiation. But more serious than a statement at Berkeley is Sotomayor’s actual judicial record.
It certainly is interesting to see serious criticism directed at Barack Obama’s nominee from outside the center-right political spectrum — and not because she is insufficiently liberal. Take the Denver Post‘s Chuck Plunkett, for example:
Youâ€™re supposed to say out-there stuff at Berkeley. Otherwise everyone thinks youâ€™re dull and boorish.
But while wearing the robes of justice youâ€™re supposed to be fair. And the Ricci v. New Haven decision Sotomayor was involved in looks just terrible â€“ even to some prominent Democrats. [link added]
While making his own argument against Sotomayor’s confirmation, Rossputin also points us to a video of liberal law professor Jonathan Turley sharing his serious doubts about the Obama nominee because of her “lack of depth”.
In the meantime, the Washington Times reports that conservative pro-life Catholic leader William Donohoe is “quietly rooting for” Sotomayor, while leading abortion rights groups are “uncertain” about her. This concerning the first major judicial nomination made by the most pro-abortion President we’ve ever had.
There sure have been some wild turns along the way so far to Sonia Sotomayor’s confirmation as the next justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised to see more such turns. Expect the unexpected. For the record I oppose Sotomayor’s nomination, but am not terribly hopeful either that her confirmation can be stopped nor that the next nominee wouldn’t be even further to the Left.

Ho Tzu Nyen, The Cloud of Unknowing, 2011 (30’)
The film is titled after a fourteenth century mystical treatise on faith, where the cloud is paradoxically a metaphor, for both an impediment to, and reconciliation with, the unknown or the divine experience. Referencing Hubert Damisch’s A Theory of /Cloud/: Toward a History of Painting, where Damisch describes the cloud as “one of the most valued oneiric themes,” Ho’s artwork is a visual exegesis of the subject of the cloud, that is the fleeting meteorological inspiration of Constable’s cloud studies; that represents transcendence, distinguishing the sacred from the earthly in the artworks of Tintoretto, Correggio and Francisco de Zurbarán; and that is characterised by transience, and resists representation in Chinese landscape painting. Just as the amorphous forms above rouse the imagination and are vehicles for hallucination, The Cloud of Unknowing performs the role of mechanism and medium for the recollection of representations of the cloud in art. Set in a deserted, low-income public housing block in Singapore, Ho’s Cloud presents scenes of eight characters in eight apartments, each in an encounter with the cloud, that alternates between being embodied as a figure, and as a vaporous mist. In the moment of encounter, a shift, transformation or illumination occurs that, as the medieval text counsels, is effected in a direct experience of the senses, instead of being understood with the mind.

Zbynek Baladrán, Night of the World, 2011 (1’54’’)
Night of the World is a short video showing the creation of an artwork. It is a short excursion on the border of Hegelian darkness to the moment before contemplation, in which everything already exists but still hasn’t been revealed. The motif of mysterious origin and of the inception of thoughts and images relates not only to creation as such, but also to the general principle of self-awareness and of the recognition of reality around oneself.

The ghee bottle is the first point of ghee storage. The shelf-life of a ghee product largely depends on the ghee storage, but the ghee bottle’s role as a ghee container renders an essential impact on the ghee’s shelf stability. Ghee manufactured, therefore, places importance on the quality of the ghee container.
Primarily a ghee bottle has to be of air-tight quality. Ghee manufacturers can make it of glass or BPA-free plastic jars. But in both cases, some basic rules of ghee packaging have to be followed.
Recycled ghee bottles can be costly. However, glass-made ghee bottles are an excellent option for ghee storage. Glass bottles offer superior protection to the product quality as they do not react with the food material.
Ghee Glass containers are compatible for high-speed operations, but presently, they are not much in large size packaging of ghee. The fragility and the high weight are the reasons to avoid glass-made ghee bottles. If a ghee container is made with dark-colored glasses, the storage life of ghee gets positively impacted.
You can store ghee both in a glass jar and a plastic jar as availability and convenience. However, the ghee bottle has to be airtight in both cases. You have to place the ghee jar in the dry and dark corner of the kitchen shelf. Please ensure that you should not keep the lid of the ghee bottle open. Never allow a metallic spoon to stay inside the jar for long. Do not touch the ghee inside the bottle with your finger.
Whether you have selected ghee in a plastic bottle or a glass jar, always go for grass-fed quality ghee made in a reliable, pollution-free place. For instance, you can try Milkio grass-fed ghee, a pure New Zealand product.
Milkio grass-fed ghee products are verified non-GMO and lactose and casein-free dairy. The ghee products are small-batch made, hand-crafted, and quality assured dairy oil that you can use for all cooking purposes.
Milkio grass-fed ghee products are shelf-stable. You can store the product for up to 18 months (from the date of manufacturing) in your pantry without freezing support.
Milkio grass-fed ghee products offer a high smoke point, which means the ghee is a safe oil for high-temperature cooking methods like baking, roasting, deep-frying, grilling, etc.
Milkio Grass-fed ghee products are all-natural and do not contain diet nasties like gluten, carb, chemical preservatives, artificial color, flavor, etc. The ghee products are keto and Paleo diet-friendly, so you can use Milkio ghee to make keto and Paleo recipes.
