One hundred and nineteen years since South Australian women could vote in state elections! One hundred and nineteen years since women were considered equal with men in public life. source: Australian Geographic
It’s ironic, wouldn’t you agree, that women in the LCA so many years afterwards still cannot be pastoral leaders of congregations?
ON TUESDAY MORNING, 18 December 1894, the division bells tolled 29… 30… 31. At 31 triumphant cries and applause echoed out of the South Australian parliament as tired campaigners celebrated. They had done it. South Australian women had won the right to vote by 31 votes to 14.
The bill had been debated until after midnight the previous evening. And, as with nearly every debate on the issue, women packed into the public gallery of SA’s parliament building to observe the proceedings.
South Australia among first in the world to grant women the vote
South Australia would be the first Australian colony to give women the vote, and only the fourth place in the world to do so, following New Zealand 18 months earlier. The bill that was passed also made South Australia the first place in the world where women could stand for elections. The right to stand for parliament and other liberal privileges was a clause that was attached to the Act by a councillor who had supposed that these additions would make the bill too radical for it to ever be passed.

When women are finally ordained, this last sentence highlights that there should be no compromises over women bishops. If there are no barriers to women’s ordination, then there should be no barriers to women bishops.

As high energy as rhythmic noise or experimental electronic dance music gets, is found right here. “Hounding Folds” the second track off the soon to be released WAITING FOR SURFIN’ BIRD is irrepressible as it vaults back and forth between pounding synth bass, and some brittle less throbbing throb. And then it goes, the bass sliding into the background, snare drums exploding in your face, all of it filthy, then bathed, then filthy, then bathed. What are these sounds doing that they get so dirty so quickly? What is David Harms, or MINCEMEAT OR TENSPEED, doing to these bass lines and beats to get them so dirty? I need to know because this is some grime coated nasty, funky, amazing music. And I am transfixed. Harms, with this release, moves ever more fully into the realm of synthesizers and sequencers after relying on feedback loops conjured from analog devices like effects pedals and audio mixers to, in his words, “fake music that would more aptly be made using synths and sequencers.” I don’t know about faking (his comments are tongue in cheek as he goes on to say that, “the current form of the project…uses synths and sequencers, in an attempt to fake rhythmic melodic compositions more aptly made using feedback loops.”)… MINCEMEAT OR TENSPEED’s music has always been hard, and ripping, and disorienting no matter how it was made. Just go to the man’s bandcamp and listen to some of his older records like the crucially groove oriented noise bomb of STRANGE GODS. Rhythmic noise has been the way for MINCEMEAT OR TENSPEED going back to the beginnings of the project in 2005. And where else for the sounds that this guy is making, and has been making, to have been forged than in our sister city just to the south, Providence. In a zone that has given refuge to the likes of MAT BRINKMAN, PLEASUREHORSE, LAZY MAGNET, and UNICORN HARD-ON (among others) you HOPE that there are MINCEMEAT OR TENSPEEDs lurking and planning.
And now we have WAITING FOR SURFIN’ BIRD, released by the very cool DECOHERENCE RECORDS which also handed us FORM A LOG’s awesome THE TWO BENJIS last year. And boy, this 5 song-er RULES. If you fear brain mash then you must turn away. However, if you like the sensation (or the idea of the sensation) of bass throb coupled with frothing, cringe speckled spires of crust and squash, then you’re already here. “Normal Techno Jam” kicks hard right off the bat with a bouncing bass groove that you would have to try extremely hard not to move your body to. A noisy crud, laps at the insistent bass and beat, washing over it and then pulling back when the MINCEMEAT tide commands. Just before 3 minutes I am so happy that I could jump out a window (first floor style). That’s when the synth arpeggio rips out of the murk, like the glistening scale covered backbone of a giant serpent slowly making its way toward the nearest metropolis so as to wreak absolute havoc (by the way, I haven’t really been paying attention, but what’s up with this new GODZILLA movie?? if it’s as bad as the last one THEY made I may just want to cry). At 4:15 the havoc begins as techno beat sours into infested lurch, the kind that Harms is known for (at least to me). From there it’s a slow-mo stomp to the finish, and in every devolving slash of scuzz, every industrial blast, there is ecstacy. David Harms knows what he is doing. Pay attention. We will be bringing him to Boston once more ASAP. Woah. Totally ferocious album cover artwork by who else but Providence’s own outstanding Mickey Zacchilli.

Boris Johnson claps for NHS workers
SKY NEWS: News reporter @EmilyMeeSky Thursday 26 March 2020 20:07, UK
The prime minister and chancellor led the nation in saluting NHS workers battling the coronavirus pandemic.
In a gesture of thanks to frontline staff, everyone across the UK was asked to join a mass round of applause from their doorsteps, windows and balconies at 8pm.
The organisers of the Clap for Carers campaign, which was started online, say it was staged because “during these unprecedented times, [NHS staff] need to know we are grateful”.
A number of landmarks, including the Wembley Arch, Royal Albert Hall, Lincoln Cathedral and the Principality Stadium, are being lit up in tribute.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said in a video message for LBC: “My colleagues in the NHS do so much to look after us, especially in our hour of need and never more so than during the coronavirus crisis, so let’s join together at 8pm tonight to say thank you to everyone in the NHS.”
The tribute is part of the #lightitblue campaign, which has been organised as a way to say thank you to hardworking healthcare staff.


We just had our Fios installed. Very nice tech and took about an hour and a half. Phone porting and all went smoothly. Very happy. Testing everything out now and seeing pretty good speeds. Just curious what others are getting. I tried two sites Good ol speedtest.net and fast.com which is basically a netflix network test to see how well you get access to their content This is wired to the fios router using a patch cable to my gigabit switch then patch cabled to the original house wiring to my office. All over cat5e I believe.

India has kept talks on sharing of water of common rivers with Bangladesh stalled for over eight years holding back the signing of interim agreements on Teesta and Feni rivers and making negotiations on five more rivers uncertain.
India has been declining since 2010 to hold a water resources ministers-level meeting of the Joint Rivers Commission sought by Bangladesh, diplomatic sources said. The ministers are co-chairs of the commission.
India has also been holding chairmanship of the commission for over eight consecutive years in violation of Article 3 of the Statute of the Indo-Bangladesh Joint Rivers Commission, which says, ‘The chairmanship of the commission shall be held annually in turn by Bangladesh and India.’
Bangladesh has sent at least 10 letters to Indian authorities since second half of 2010 through diplomatic and JRC channels for a water ministers-level meeting but got no positive response from the next door neighbour, diplomats said. Chapter V of the statute says, ‘The ordinary sessions of the Commission shall be held as often as necessary, generally four times a year. In addition special meetings may be convened any time at the request of either government.’
The latest JRC meeting was held in New Delhi in March 2010.
Successive Indian prime ministers Narendra Modi and Manmohan Singh continued to promise to conclude interim agreements on sharing waters of seven transboundary rivers, Teesta River in particular, in spite
of requests of Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina on almost every occasions they met.
Hasina is expected to reiterate the request to Modi in a meeting at Shantiniketan in West Bengal of India on Friday for concluding the Teesta agreement as agreed upon by both the governments in January 2011. West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee is also scheduled to attend a function Visva Bharati University with the two prime ministers.
In an unflinching delivery in presence of Hasina after their latest official bilateral talks in New Delhi in April 2017, Modi said that his government was working with ‘all stakeholders in India’ for an early conclusion of the Teesta agreement and the two governments would sign the deal by their [present] tenures.
The two prime ministers also ‘directed concerned officials to conclude meanwhile discussions on various aspects relating to sharing of waters of the Feni, Manu, Muhuri, Khowai, Gumti, Dharla and Dudhkumar rivers,’ according to the joint statement published on April 8, 2017 on official visit of Bangladesh prime minister to India.
Officials are, however, sceptical about the possibility of signing an agreement on sharing Teesta waters during Hasina’s present tenure as the general elections in Bangladesh need to be held by January 28, 2019.
After the finalisation of the draft of the Teesta deal by the two sides, India backtracked on the signing several hours before the arrival of Manmohan Singh in Dhaka on September 6, 2011 on the plea that West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee objected to the agreement.
According to the framework of an interim agreement finalised in 2010, the two sides agreed to share Teesta water on fair and equitable basis on a 50-50 water sharing ratio after keeping 20 per cent of Teesta waters as environmental flow during lean season.
India was, however, of a mind to sign an interim agreement on sharing waters of Feni River before signing the Teesta deal. Bangladesh was of the opinion that the two interim instruments should be signed together.
The two JRC chapters exchanged data and information on flows for preparing a framework on signing agreement[s] on sharing of flows of the Manu, Muhuri, Khowai, Gumti, Dharla and Dudhkumar rivers.
Asked about holding a water resources ministers-level meeting, Joint Rivers Commission’s Bangladesh chapter member M Mofazzal Hossain said that they were in touch with the Indian side for holding the meeting.
He said that JRC technical bodies were working on a regular basis in accordance with the mandate described in the statute to assess river flows, data and information sharing and flood warnings.
The last minister-level meeting was held in March 2010 in India. It was the 37th meeting of the commission founded in 1972.
India and Bangladesh share at least 54 transboundary rivers of which agreement has been reached only on sharing of water of the Ganga River, based on a sharing formula of the flows measured at Farakka during the lean season each year, from January 1 to May 31. The 30-year treaty signed in 1996 is renewable by mutual consent.
Bangladesh also shares Sangu, Matamuhuri and Naf rivers with another neighbour Myamar.
Centre for Environmental and Geographic Information Services, an independent research organisation established by the government, identified 16 more rivers as transboundary rivers in addition to 57 common rivers with India and Myanmar.

As I’m looking through my most recent photos I’m noticing quite the trend lately…Autumn Flavors Everywhere!! Clearly I’m not along here as I see pumpkin, squash, and apple inspired dishes all over food blogs lately!
It all started with a classic, pumpkin bread. Not just any pumpkin bread though…my mom’s recipe. Although I’ve “tweeked” it a bit.
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread (original recipe in this post)
*makes 1 large loaf. I have a bigger than normal loaf pan
(about 10”x5”), but you could probably get this into a regular loaf pan…it would just take longer to cook.
Preheat to 350
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup + 2T sugar
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp ground clove
- 3/4 can pumpkin
- 1 egg
- 3 T canola oil
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 1/4 cup water
Add wet to dry, mix just until combined, and fold in chocolate chips! I used 1/2 cup :)
Bake for 45-50 min (50min-1hr if you get all this into a regular loaf pan)
Enjoy in the morning with a cappuccino!
Next up…Autumn Chowder. This is one of those recipes that I LOVE, but somehow only end up making once a year. I guess it’s better that way :)
- 6 slices bacon, chopped
- 1 med. onion, chopped
- 1.5 cups chicken broth or water
- 1.5 – 2 cups yukon gold potatoes, cut into bite size pieces
- 1.5 – 2 cups sweet potatoes, bite size pieces
- 1 cup carrots, chopped
- 1 cup butternut squash, chopped
- 1 tsp chicken bullion (if water was used instead of broth)
- 3.5 cups milk
- 1 bag (16oz) frozen corn
- fresh black pepper (to taste)
- 3 cups shredded cheese (combination of cheddar and Monterey jack)
- 3 tbsp flour mixed with 1 tbsp water (or more if needed to form a smooth paste)
Partially cook bacon until almost crisp. Stir in onions and cook 3-5 min until onions start to soften.
Stir in broth or water, potatoes, carrots, squash, and bullion if water was used.
Heat to boiling. Reduce head and cover. Simmer until potatoes are tender (15-20 min). Stir in milk, corn, and pepper. Heat to simmering. Mix in cheese and flour paste. Add to soup, stirring until melted.
Serve garnished with chopped scallions if desired.
Then I highly recommend picking up a fresh caramel apple from your local farmers market, farm store, apple orchard…. anywhere you can find one!
I got this one at Wilson’s Farm in Lexington, MA….delicious!
And just because…more Bromley pics :)
We call this stance… “The Seal Pup” because he stands and sits with his front paws turned out hehe.
Seal Pup sitting…
Did my last long run before the 10k next Monday! I was supposed to do 5.5miles and did more like 5.9…so that made me feel good about the 6.2 in my future :) I’ve also been going on a LOT more walks lately because of that little fluff ball above! Dogs = instant exercise!
Broke out the boots this past weekend…fall is really here!

Honda could trigger a domino effect of manufacturers toppling out of Formula One unless costs are slashed dramatically, International Automobile Federation (FIA) president Max Mosley said on Friday.
”I have to say it was not entirely unexpected,” the Briton told reporters after Honda announced they were pulling out amid slumping car sales and factory closures in the global economic downturn.
”I’ve been expecting one of the major manufacturers to stop for some time because even before the current situation, the costs were completely out of control.
”And now I think its difficult to imagine how any manufacturer could stay in unless we make really substantial reductions in cost,” he added in a conference call.
Major car manufacturers own, either wholly or in part, six of the 10 teams that ended the season in November. They also supply the rest with engines.
A recent Formula Money report put Honda’s annual budget at $350-million, with Japan’s second-largest carmaker pumping an estimated $1,5-billion into the sport over the last five years.
Toyota, BMW, Mercedes, Renault and Fiat (Ferrari) also burned through well in excess of $200-million a year. Toyota entered the sport in 2002 and have yet to win a race.
”Unless we can demonstrate to the directors of these big companies that the costs are coming right down, I don’t doubt that they will start to discuss the possibility [of withdrawing],” Mosley said.
The Formula One Teams Association met on Thursday and agreed significant cuts, and the FIA said on Friday they were in exclusive negotiations with Cosworth, Xtrac and Ricardo Transmissions (XR) for a low-cost powertrain (engine and gearbox) package from 2010.
”They [the teams] are certainly making an effort,” said Mosley.
”The question in my mind is whether they are attacking this in a sufficiently root-and-branch way. I’m hoping to have a meeting with the teams in the next few days and we will discuss that.
”I don’t think there’s any doubt now that there’s a real sense of urgency,” he added.
Mosley recognised that Formula One, already down to 20 cars following the departure of Super Aguri in April, would struggle if numbers on the starting grid declined further.
However, he said that while 2009 looked tough, he was optimistic about the medium to long-term future — providing the sport could become effectively self-financing without subsidy from car makers and billionaire private individuals.
To do that would require reducing annual budgets down to about the £30-million bracket, allowing teams to be competitive without requiring more funds than provided by television revenues and limited sponsorship.
”Much more needs to be done for 2010,” said Mosley. ”We’ve got to get the costs down, not by 10% or 20% but down to 10% or 20% of what they are now.
”Without that, I don’t really see where the money’s coming from.
”Provided there is a powertrain available…I think it quite likely that some of the old style F1 entrepreneurs would buy the remnants of one of these teams provided that they can do so on reasonable terms,” said Mosley.
”We may get a shift in ownership of one or two teams but I don’t think we will actually lose the team.” — Reuters

Targeted anti-cancer drug delivery system.
A Slovenian research institution has developed a specific bio-molecular drug delivery system using a selective cathepsin inhibitor as a guiding molecule towards cancer sites. The invention solves the problem of safely and accuracy of drug delivery to the cancer target site. The researchers seek research cooperation, license or a joint venture agreements with partners interested in participating with the pre-clinical studies, manufacturing scale-up or phase-1 clinical trials.
Industry partners or investor active in the fields of biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, with option of own manufacturing capacities are sought for the finalisation of the pre-clinical and clinical trials in case of medicinal implementation of the offered technology. In case of a - joint venture agreement the partner is expected to offer knowledge and financing, - license agreement the partner is expected to purchase rights for the use of the patent-protected solution - research cooperation agreement with partners with relevant know-how, the capacity, and accreditation to carry out pre-clinical studies and/ or scale-up the manufacturing to the industrial scale.
One of the characteristics of tumour cells and tumour stroma cells is their secretion of the proteolytic enzymes such as cathepsins, which actively promote tumour growth and are therefore amenable as targets for targeted delivery of anti-cancer drugs. The invention is bio-molecular drug delivery system with a specific cathepsin-B inhibitor linked to a highly bio-compatible liposomal nano-carrier via lipid tail and which enables specific targeting of cathepsins in the tumour microenvironment, and therefore bringing the liposomomal nanocarrier containing the drug payload (eg. doxorubicin), to the target site. Liposome based drug delivery system enables reduction in dosages and systemic toxicity with increased efficiency of anti-cancer drugs which leads to more efficient and less costly treatments. Successful functioning of the system has been demonstrated both in vitro on various cell cultures and in vivo on mouse cancer model. In vitro experiments on cells showed that encapsulated doxorubicin in liposomes with linked cathepsin-B inhibitor was 22 fold more potent in killing cells compared to only liposome encapsulated doxorubicin. While in vivo data confirmed increased accumulation of liposomes with linked cathepsin-B inhibitor in tumours while there was no accumulation in healthy tissue. The technology is applicable for targeted delivery of both anti-tumour and anti-inflammatory drugs to pathological sites. It enables to deliver both water soluble and insoluble compounds to the target site due to the liposome structure with lipid layer and hydrophilic core. Apart from treatment, the technology is also applicable for detection purposes (for example, by specific delivery of a fluorescent marker or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent to a tumour site), and was confirmed using encapsulated Gadolinium (Gd) with linked cathepsin-B inhibitor on tumour bearing mice, which resulted in signal enhancement, prolonged retention and elimination. The researchers are among the world's leading experts in the field of proteases (primarily cysteine cathepsins) and their regulation of physiological processes in normal and pathological conditions, including cancer, and inflammatory associated diseases, and have extensive knowledge and expertise in cell biology, proteomics, animal cancer models and in-vivo imaging techniques. The researchers filed number of patent on drug delivery systems on international level, have many international collaborations and have participated in several International and EU projects among which, EU project FP7 that was focused on developing drug delivery system for oral and ocular application. They published over a hundred articles in high-impact scientific journals. Partners are sought to participate with the finalisation of the pre-clinical and/or clinical trials. Most suitable partners are already involved in biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry or are investors. The types of cooperation preferred are as: - joint venture for the finalisation of the pre-clinical trials and/or phase-1 clinical trials - license agreement to implement the proposed technology - research cooperation agreement for the finalisation of the pre-clinical trials and/or phase-1 clinical trials

This invention solves the problem by safely and accurately delivering the drug to its target site. Drug toxicity is reduced using a liposome-based delivery system. The drug is guided directly to the tumour tissue using liposomes with bound inhibitors of cathepsins, which are characteristically secreted by tumour cells. The use of liposomes as drug delivery systems is safe as liposomes are biologically inert, natural occurring particles in the human body and biodegradable; use of liposomes as drug carriers is common, and approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration. Using targeted delivery, therapy is made more efficient, thereby reducing the required dosage for the same effect, which leads to reduced treatment costs. Advantage in the production of the invented drug delivery system is that it can be done by standard biochemical procedures and is compatible with most R&D institutions, while it is substantially cheaper compared to the antibody based drug delivery system or drug-conjugates. The invention was tested in-vitro and in-vivo. In-vitro analysis of the system showed 20-fold higher tumour cell killing capacity of encapsulated doxorubicin (i.e. requires 20-fold lower drug quantity for the same effect), compared to passive drug delivery (i.e Doxil). While in-vivo imaging on tumour bearing mice using MRI and encapsulated Gadolinium in liposomes bound with inhibitors showed increased and prolonged signal intensity compared to background as well as excretion from the system without accumulation in healthy tissues. Since liposomes are inert, this drug delivery system enables minimisation of side effects of the drugs and targeted delivery exclusively to tumour cells, increasing drug efficiency and patients' survival.

Waited a long time for this one and thankfully it didn’t disappoint. A great comedic satire by Taika Waititi and excellent performances by the young cast.
DIRECTOR: Taika Waititi
STARRING: Roman Griffin Davis, Thomasin McKenzie, Scarlett Johansson
SCREENPLAY: Taika Waititi (screenplay), Christine Leunens (novel)
GENRE: Comedy, War
RUNTIME: 108 Minutes
★★★★ 4.5 Stars
This was definitely one of my most anticipated films of the year. The wacky comedy that was portrayed in the trailer had me intrigued from the off and I was so glad that this film didn’t disappoint.
Jojo is a young German boy, living in Germany near the end of the Second World War. He is excited to grow up to be a member of Hitler’s personal guard and has even modelled his imaginary friend after the famed dictator. But Jojo’s world is turned upside down when he suffers a terrible injury, then to make matters worse, he discovers his mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their house.
Although this film is marketed as a comedy, and a comedy it certainly is, there are real tender moments here to break up the otherwise quick witted dialogue. Some of those moments are even heart breaking. Jojo Rabbit is a great example of Waititi taking his signature style of movie making and making it work for a subject that means so much to so many people.
The young stars of this film deserve all the praise in the world. Roman Griffin Davis is an absolute joy to watch from beginning to end. His acting is superb, his delivery of comedy is on point and razor sharp and his chemistry with the other actors on screen is amazing. A great performance for such a young actor and I hope that it gets recognised come awards season, I really do. Of course you get outstanding performances from the likes of Scarlett Johansson and Sam Rockwell. But it really is the young actors who shine in this film.
The humour may not be for everybody, and I could understand if some people may find it offensive or in bad taste but the story is being told through the eyes of a ten year old boy, and too him, I guess a lot of things would seem different then to us as adults.
This was everything I needed it to be. I urge everyone to see this as soon as it comes out in the UK in January!

Bad cops pay out big in New York, a sheriff cleans house in Florida, a sticky-fingered cop gets in trouble in North Carolina, and a California cop gets caught with his fingers in the dope jar. Let’s get to it:
In Clearwater, Florida, the new Pinellas County sheriff is investigating his narcotics division, which Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said had become “too loose an operation.” The unit has been criticized for conducting surveillance of customers at hydroponic grow stores and for one of its members donning a utility company uniform to seek warrantless entry to a suspected marijuana grow. Nine deputies have been investigated so far, with five disciplined, two with complaints found unfounded, and two still under investigation. In one case, a detective sought reimbursement for a $200 payment to a snitch, but “he never paid the informant.” In another, a deputy back-dated a snitch payment receipt for another deputy who had failed to have the payment witnessed, as required by department policy. In another case, a deputy put department GPS devices on vehicles of his family members. In yet another case, a deputy erased a DVR hard drive seized in a marijuana bust because, he claimed, it might reveal the faces of undercover officers. But a local defense attorney said the tape would have shown deputies trespassing without a warrant. Gualtieri said he was “appalled” when shown court documents about the deputy wearing a utility company uniform, and that marijuana grow houses should not be the department’s highest priority. Gualtieri has referred his findings to local prosecutors. Stay tuned.
In New York City, two Brooklyn undercover officers have been hit with a huge judgment for falsely arresting two brothers for selling cocaine. Brothers Jose and Maximo Colon were at a nightclub in Elmhurst in 2008 when plainclothes Officers Henry Tavarez, Steven Anderson and Alan Figueroa arrived. They were shortly joined by Det. Miguel Caraval, who told the Colon brothers they were under arrest. But security video footage from the club showed that the brothers had never talked to any of the police, and the charges were dismissed. Attorneys for the city suggested that one of the officers had planted cocaine on the pair. The brothers filed a civil rights lawsuit, which the city settled by paying them $150,000 each. Figueroa paid a nominal payment to the brothers for their settlements and charges were dismissed against Caraval. But Officers Tavarez and Anderson did not respond to their complaints, and were slapped last week with default judgments of roughly $210,000 each.
In Carlsbad, California, a Carlsbad police detective has been charged with two felony counts after being arrested in January. Detective Michael Koch, an 18-year-veteran, got caught stealing drugs from the evidence room by coworkers. He had heroin in his pocket when he got busted. He faces one count of felony burglary and one count of felony drug possession at his March 16 arrangement and is looking at up to 3 ½ years in jail. But he’s still on paid leave, and still drawing his $72,000 a year salary.
In Smithfield, North Carolina, a former Benson police officer pleaded guilty Monday to charges that he’d stolen $850 cash that was evidence in a drug investigation. Randall William “Randy” Beasley, 43, was charged in January with obstructing justice and altering, destroying or stealing evidence of criminal conduct. As part of a deal with prosecutors, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor larceny and obstructing justice, and the other charge was dropped. Beasley got sentenced to 18 months of supervised probation and ordered to perform 24 hours of community service. He also received two 45-day suspended jail sentences, so he won’t serve time unless he violates probation.

Motocross, the sport featuring people riding souped-up dirt bikes around a muddy track and flinging themselves off of jumps, doing tricks like the "superman," has been growing in popularity since it was introduced in the United States in the 1960s. Today, some riders are as popular as rock stars and those at the top of their game are showcased at high-profile competitions like the X Games. But, for the most part, women have been left out of the sport, especially in television coverage and prize pools. That is, until Miki Keller got involved.
Keller, who has lived in Bend for the past 14 years, doesn't look like the burly, beat-up motocross riders you see on TV. Her thick brown hair and movie-star smile don't suggest an extreme athlete. But Keller is not only a motocross rider herself, she is also responsible for putting women's motocross on the map.
Keller, who works in sports marketing, co-founded Wide Open MX Magazine, the first magazine for freestyle motocross riders. She wanted to do something to get more women racing and to get media outlets like ESPN to showcase women's motocross races. So in 2000, Keller founded the Women's Motocross League, and in 2004 she started the Women's Motocross Association.
"I wanted to elevate the level of women's racing," Keller says. "I wanted to give more opportunities to amateurs, to help them have a career and to get women on TV. There were good athletes working hard and they just weren't given a chance."
Before the WMA, the only chance women had of competing on a big stage was if they raced against men. But the sport was growing, and a women's racing series was the next logical step. Now, the WMA owns and operates a professional motocross series for women and promotes amateur races. Thanks to Keller, you can see these women ripping around tracks on ESPN, in magazines and at the X Games.
It wasn't easy, though.
"There were some politics," she says, "I think a lot of people think women on dirt bikes were just putting along - not being aggressive, strong, talented athletes. We had to break down some of those misconceptions about women in the sport."
What started in 2004 as a small company grew so large, to the point that, last year, Keller decided to sell the WMA to MX Sports. She's still heavily involved in the sport - she represents up-and-coming riders and is the women's supercross director for the X Games.
No matter what, Keller's mark will be left on the sport. Top women riders are now sponsored by factory teams and are able to make a living as professional athletes. And Keller is happy she can get back to her favorite part of the sport - being a fan.
"I love watching the races," she says. "You get behind certain racers you want to do well."
Thanks to Keller, now the rest of America can, too.

Internationally renowned dance company brings innovative performance to TPAC for one night only
NASHVILLE – A troupe of daring dancers with an international reputation will take the stage for one night in the Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s Andrew Jackson Hall on Tuesday, September 17 at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets starting at $25 for this exclusive performance are now on sale and may be purchased at www.tpac.org, by phone at (615) 782-4040, and at the TPAC Box Office, 505 Deaderick Street, in downtown Nashville.
Known for leaping, flying and breaking all the rules of dance, Pilobolus is named after a barnyard fungus that propels its spores with extraordinary speed, accuracy and strength. Founded by a group of Dartmouth College students in 1971, the company has built its fervent and expanding international following by showing the human body to be the most expressive, universal, and magical of media.
Pilobolus maintains its own singular style, evolving interplay with shape-shifting, shadow-play and other explorations, while actively collaborating with the best and brightest minds from all conceivable professions the world over. To date, Pilobolus has collaborated with Penn & Teller, the MIT Distributed Robotics Laboratory, Art Spiegelman, Maurice Sendak, OK Go, Radiolab, and many others. The results of these collaborations have proven that amazing feats can be achieved, and Pilobolus has been recognized for its development of dance and multimedia art, described by The New York Times as “A new idiom of movement drama.”
Based in Washington Depot, Connecticut, Pilobolus has, in recent years, transformed from an avant-garde dance company into an international entertainment brand featured by the likes of Oprah, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and the Academy Awards. The company has explored worlds as disparate as advertising, publishing, film, and music videos, earning a 2012 Grammy® Award nomination for the video for OK Go’s “All Is Not Lost.”
Physically and intellectually, the company engages and inspires audiences around the world through performance, education and consultation. The company has been touring its 115 pieces of repertory to more than 64 countries over the last 42 years. Pilobolus achieves all this without ever losing sight of their core mission: to make art that builds community.
“Pilobolus is a mind-blowing troupe of wildly creative and physically daring dancers who leap, fly, intertwine and break all the rules…Audiences should expect the unexpected with Pilobolus.”
- NYC Newsday

Over three decades, the Tennessee Performing Arts Center has welcomed more than 11 million audience members and served more than 1.5 million students and educators with performances at TPAC, resources for teachers, classroom residencies, and enrichment programs for adults. Founded in 1980, TPAC serves several hundred thousand audience members each year with the annual series of HCA/TriStar Health Broadway at TPAC, a variety of special engagements, and the productions of the three resident artistic companies—Nashville Ballet, Nashville Opera, and Tennessee Repertory Theatre.

The Bo staff was the simplest common weapon in Rokugan. It was a wooden staff of roughly five to six feet in length, and was most commonly carried by travelers and monks. The bo had no penetrating power when it came to armor, but a master with the staff was not to be taken lightly whether you wear armor or not. It was notably more difficult to hit a trained bo user.  The bo's primary advantage was it length, as it was longer than the average katana. Athletic individuals could use the bo as leverage to propel themselves into aerial maneuvers.

Netlify calls this Instant Cache Invalidation, part of the “rocketjuice” of Netlify.
On all the sites I work on that aren’t on Netlify, I do have to think about it (ugh). If you look at this very websites source, you’ll see a link to a stylesheet something like this:
<link href="https://css-tricks.com/wp-content/themes/CSS-Tricks-17/style.css?cache_bust=1594590986788" rel="stylesheet">
?cache_bust= stuff at the end of the stylesheet URL? Those are just gibberish characters I put into that URL manually (based on a
Date() call) so that when I push a change to the file, it breaks both the CDN and people’s own browser cache and they get the new file. If I didn’t do that, the changes I push won’t be seen until all the cache expires or is manually removed by users, which is… bad. I might be fixing a bug! Or releasing a new feature! It’s extra bad because that CSS might go along with some HTML which doesn’t cache as aggressively and could lead to a mismatch of HTML and expected CSS.
I work on some sites where I change that cache-busting string by hand because I’m too lazy to automate it. Usually, I do automate it though. I recently shared my Gulpfile which I hand-wrote, and part of which deals with this cache-busting. It is work to write, work to maintain, and work to use during development. You can even read the comments on that post and see other people’s strategies for doing the same thing that are different than how I do it. Errrrrrybody be cache-busting.
Not on Netlify.
Again, you change an asset, push it up, Netlify knows it’s changed and does all the cache busting for you. So your stylesheet can be linked up like:
<link href="dont-even-worry-about-it.css" rel="stylesheet" />
But somehow the article ends unexpectedly. You do not explain, HOW the browser cache is busted with the URL in you last code example…
How does it work?
Netlify also cleans up your public/dist folder before a new build or compile (e.g. with an SSG), normally your build/compile process only writes files, locally you have to clean it up yourself.
A simple function is all that is needed to get around this problem.
And use is also simple.
You can use the same for critical styles.
More here, but I’m just warning the Polish version :)
Sure, but that’s not simple to me. ♀ I mean there are hard-coded file paths in that function. It’s not incredibly difficult stuff, but it’s technical debt. And it’s another thing that is reading a file off disk, which isn’t performance neutral.
That is why you (CSS Tricks) needs to join the Netlify party!
This just sounds like regular etag based caching. You just have to configure your webserver to serve the proper caching headers, and you can do this without netlify (or any other third party).
I… would struggle with it for a week before giving up ;)
Cloudflare also handles etag caching for you!
Sends the old file while checking for a new version to make sure it hasn’t changed.
If it has, it sends the updated copy to the next person who requests the file, if I remember right.
The big catch here is that every resource needs to be revalidated with the server each time you visit this page. When you fingerprint and cache for one year, you get less rountrips.
This is indeed much easier for development and deployment, but it is a step backwards for performance, as the same resource (CSS, JS, images, etc.) will be downloaded multiple times when browsing the site…
Do you have more detail there? I’d be quite surprised if this meant “Netlify does zero caching”. I think perhaps it’s etag based so a server-ping has to happen to see if there is a new copy of the file, is that what you mean?
That’s it. I was wondering if we could tweak this Netlify cache invalidation to improve performances. For example, I’m used to rename an image when I need to replace one. It’s not needed with Netlify but I would prefer to disable image cache invalidation to improve image loading perf.
It’s true and it works great. Talking about caching on the CDN. Totally not an issue with Netlify.
However how about the browser caching. I find I have to instruct users to hard-refresh the site to pick up changes to the static application script.
I think I will have to do exactly what’s described above to bust the end-user cache on software update, right?

Good governance missing in TS, AP
Good governance is not a Utopian concept. It is not a mere idealistic concept too.
Good governance is not a Utopian concept. It is not a mere idealistic concept too. It is something that is possible. It will be possible if the leadership is really willing to usher it. Winning successive elections is not a criterion to decide whether the government in place is providing good governance.
Several factors go into a triumph in elections. It is essential for the ruling party to remember the basics of governance. The topic is relevant to the times because of the politics prevailing in the two Telugu States nowadays.
Accountability and answerability are absent. Any study, however pro-government it is, will prove that the two governments are not providing good governance.
What should be the framework for good governance (by identifying its essential features and shortcomings in its working and emphasising need for innovative approaches)? No theory of governance could be intelligible unless it is seen in the context of its time.
India's democratic experience of the past six decades has clearly established that good governance must aim at expansion of social opportunities and removal of poverty. Good governance means securing justice, empowerment, employment and efficient delivery of services.
A study of the same should deal with these subjects in detail and also analyse administrative and political fault-lines. It should identify criminalisation of politics and corruption as two major challenges. It also should highlight shifts in meaning and content of national values of the freedom movement particularly those of nationalism, democracy, secularism, non-alignment, and mixed economy and its impact on the nitty-gritty of administration as well as on the intellectual build-up of the organs of the State at the national level.
All these things at a different level must be applied to the States. If the eight parameters or principles as propounded by the United Nations are to be applied, then neither the TRS government nor the AP government could pass the test.
Let us consider the first point (Participation) - People should be able to voice their own opinions through legitimate immediate organisations or representatives. Are they being allowed to do so? The second point is about the Rule of Law.
Legal framework should be enforced impartially, especially on human right laws. Is this happening? Consensus is the third point. There should be mediation among differing interests to meet the broad consensus on the best interests of a community.
Does consensus exist? Is there equality and inclusiveness to provide the people with opportunities to improve or maintain their well-being? Effectiveness and efficiency are essential to establish processes and institutions should be able to produce results that meet the needs of their community while making the best of their resources.
Neither accountability nor transparency exist in governance. Strangely, so called Swamijis and religious practitioners have bigger say in the governance and they have become not just advisors to the Chief Ministers, but also are playing court jesters role hailing the Chief Ministers.
These have become the stakeholders, ironically, in governance. As a result, lack of responsiveness is prevailing? Does anyone care?

All sales are final; no refunds
The soulful Syrian-American vocalist and his ensemble raised over $11,000 during the preorder campaign for their full-length album, Elements (2017), with over $3,000 in donations for humanitarian aid in Syria. Their album was premiered by Noisey (Vice) and led to their involvement in the nationally-acclaimed SXSW showcase ContraBanned: #MusicUnites featuring artists from the diaspora of the countries targeted by the travel ban. They’ve since been featured on PRI, Al Jazeera, Reuters, Paste Magazine, Huffington Post, NowThis, and many others. In addition to performing in clubs and festivals across the nation, Bassel partners with universities and charity organizations nationwide to host seminars, workshops, and benefit concerts drawing attention to the crisis in Syria.
Ben Phillips’ Scorpio Moon
Scorpio Moon is a Chicago based jazz trio led by trumpeter Ben Phillips. The band plays Ben’s moody and thoughtful compositions, but also draws on pop culture with tunes like ‘Space Oddity’ by David Bowie and music from the TV show Twin Peaks, among others. With Scorpio Moon, Ben aims to combine acoustic and electronic musical elements in a way that mirrors humanity living in the age of technology, and he accomplishes this by electrifying his trumpet using guitar effects pedals to create otherworldly sounds that don’t sound like they are coming from a trumpet. The result is a uniquely modern approach to playing uniquely American music.
Scorpio Moon consists of Jakob Heinemann on the bass, Lucas Gillan on the drums, and Ben Phillips on trumpet/electronics.

Benambra brumbies shot on roadside
|Benambra brumbies shot on roadside - 19th Oct 2017|
Benambra brumbies shot on roadside|
Seven brumbies were shot overnight on Friday, October 13, with residents and tourists confronted with the sight on and near Limestone Road, about 20 kilometres east of Benambra. The horses are believed to have been shot by unidentified hunters and left to die in appalling circumstances. Graeme Sinnott, the closest resident to where the shooting occurred, said the district has long been a haven for hunters who have no qualms about shooting from roadways into private property and trespassing in their pursuit of wild deer and other feral animals. Bairnsdale police were informed of the incident on Saturday, however "they declined to respond unless a report was made via the 000 facility", Mr Sinnott said. "When reported to 000, police advised that no officers were available to respond," he said. The Swifts Creek officer responded on Monday. The Omeo officer is currently on leave. Inspector Luke Smeaton, of Bairnsdale police, confirmed with the News that brumbies had been shot on Limestone Road, in state park, and the incident is being investigated by local police.

What are examples of deposition?
The most typical example of deposition would be frost.
Frost is the deposition of water vapour from humid air or air containing water vapour on to a solid surface.
Solid frost is formed when a surface, for example a leaf, is at a temperature lower than the freezing point of water and the surrounding air is humid..
Is deposition a slow or fast process?
Remember, faster moving water causes erosion more quickly. Slower moving water erodes material more slowly. If water is moving slowly enough, the sediment being carried may settle out. This settling out, or dropping off, of sediment is deposition.
Which of the following is an example of deposition?
One example of deposition is the process by which, in sub-freezing air, water vapor changes directly to ice without first becoming a liquid. This is how frost and hoar frost form on the ground or other surfaces. Another example is when frost forms on a leaf.
What are the main causes of deposition?
Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or landmass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.
How can siltation be controlled?
Sediment flushing can tackle reservoirs siltation and improve sediment flux through dammed rivers. … To limit these drawbacks, sediment flushing can be controlled, by jointly regulating the sediment concentration of the evacuated water and the streamflow in the downstream channel.
What are the 5 types of deposition?
Stream DepositionBars. … Floodplains. … Alluvial fans. … Deltas. … Topset beds are nearly horizontal layers of sediment deposited by the distributaries as they flow away from the mouth and toward the delta front. … Braided streams. … Meanders and oxbow lakes.
How do humans affect deposition?
The human formation of dams causes the artificial storage of river water and forces the water to release the sediments it was carrying. … Human activities (such as construction and development) also often increase the weathering of rocks, which results in more fragments being available for erosion and deposition.
What is deposition and its causes?
Deposition is the processes where material being transported by a river is deposited. Deposition occurs when a river loses energy. This can be when a river enters a shallow area (this coud be when it floods and comes into contact with the flood plain) or towards its mouth where it meets another body of water.

Director Laura Citarella, of the famed filmmaking collective El Pampero Cine, has created with her newest feature Trenque Lauquen a provocative transformation of her protagonist Laura (Laura Parades), whom Citarella first introduced in her 2011 film Ostende. Lily and Generoso enjoyed an in-depth conversation with Citarella about Trenque Lauquen when it screened at AFI Fest 2022.
Back in 2018, Lily and Generoso selected Adirley Queirós’s Once There Was Brasilia as a top ten film. That feature’s cinematographer, Joana Pimenta, has now co-directed with Queirós one of the most expansive political films we’ve seen this year, Dry Ground Burning. Lily and Generoso interviewed Pimenta at AFI Fest earlier this month.


By Tom Watson and Peter Daou
UPDATE (10/2/15): USA TODAY and Suffolk University pull the identical, reprehensible stunt as Quinnipiac, deceiving readers into believing that the majority of voters believe Hillary Clinton is a "liar." Under the graphic on this page, USA TODAY tells readers that the source of the "liar" word association is "430 likely Democratic voters." That is an outright lie. Looking at the internals, out of 131 respondents – 13% of the total sample – who associated "liar" with Hillary, only 8 (0.8% of the total) were Democrats, 49 were Independents, and 73 were Republicans. And over half were men. So USA TODAY is portraying the response of mainly male Republicans as somehow indicative of what Democrats (and all voters) believe about Hillary Clinton.
Similarly, the words used in the poll to compliment Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders (both of whom we admire and respect) come primarily from Democrats. Comparing what most Republican males say about Hillary to what most Democrats say about Joe Biden is a brazen deception. It is entirely unacceptable. USA TODAY should retract the article and apologize to readers and to Hillary Clinton.
It is beyond question that the national media want to undermine Hillary's candidacy. Even Fox's Bill O'Reilly admits it. However, to do so with outright falsehoods is unconscionable. The Q poll debunked below was trumpeted by countless media outlets - to Hillary's great detriment. Now the USA TODAY/Suffolk U. poll is being disseminated by the media, from Morning Joe to Politico. This madness has to stop.
UPDATE (10/11/15): Incredibly, CBS News becomes the third major media source to deceive voters by representing Republican views of Hillary as those of Democrats. This graphic was posted by Twitter user "Lucille" from a screenshot of a CBS broadcast:
UPDATE (11/9/15): More than two months after we debunked this deceptive poll, Politico repeats the falsehood:
In a Quinnipiac poll in late August, the first three words that came to voters’ minds about Clinton were “liar,” “dishonest” and “untrustworthy.”
The word "voters" is false and misleading. Those negative terms were from Republican voters, not all voters. This mischaracterization was initiated by Quinnipiac and has been repeated countless times by the media.
ORIGINAL POST (9/13/15):
It was a lightning bolt from the polling universe: two weeks ago, Quinnipiac University found that the most cited description of the most admired woman in American politics was “liar.”
The media jumped on it. Commentators seized on it as definitive proof that the American electorate distrusts Hillary Clinton.
But the conclusion was a sham.
Back on August 29th, we deconstructed the poll, looked at the internals and found that it was highly misleading. While Quinnipiac presented the poll as evidence that voters associated “liar” with Hillary, we demonstrated that it was Republican and Republican-leaning respondents to the Q-poll who linked Hillary to liar and other derogatory terms (including “bitch”). It is a vastly different thing for Republicans, parroting Fox news and talk radio, to hurl misogynistic insults at Hillary than for all voters to believe Hillary is a liar.
On August 29th, we wrote:
Like so many of the “bad news for Hillary” stories created by a single cherry-picked piece of data in a polling universe that (still) shows Hillary dominating the Democratic primary and the general election, the “liar” claim is just another bit of fool’s gold.
For two weeks, #HillaryMen have called on the media to disavow the poll. Some journalists have been ethical and responsible. Case in point: when presented with the #HillaryMen analysis of the Q-poll last week, veteran New Yorker political journalist John Cassidy immediately amended his piece and acknowledged it publicly.
Other media figures have ignored our debunking of the poll and run with the ‘liar” lie, slandering Hillary in the process. One of the most egregious examples was a nationally televised interview in which NBC political correspondent Andrea Mitchell confronted Hillary with the “liar” finding without questioning the poll’s methodology. This is reprehensible for any serious journalist. Mitchell essentially ambushed Hillary and compelled her to answer to a falsehood, to explain something that was factually wrong, something that goes to the heart of her integrity.
NBC's Savannah Guthrie compounded the inequity in an interview with Chelsea Clinton when she confronted her with the discredited poll.
Just as the New York Times trumpeted a false and dangerous allegation that Hillary was the subject of a criminal investigation and generated a cascade of anti-Hillary coverage, the Q-poll has had the same effect. These are the proverbial eggs that can’t be uncracked, the genies that can’t be put back into the bottle. “A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”
But there’s a new twist in the Q-poll story. Today, we have new ammunition to expose the truth about this deceptive poll. Mediaite columnist Tommy Christopher has published a deeply reported article proving our initial claim that Quinnipiac cooked the numbers in a way that cast a false sense of dishonesty on the character and campaign of Hillary Clinton:
If you’ve watched any political news the past two weeks, you could be forgiven for thinking that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s new campaign slogan must be “Hillary Clinton: Liar, Untrustworthy, Crook,” because that bumper sticker phrase has been plastered all over the dial, and has been tripping off the tongues of every news anchor and/or pundit, and has even been repeatedly shopped to the candidate herself.
Because of the way the results were reported, Republicans and Republican leaners comprised 45% of the reported responses, while Dems and Dem-leaners made up only 36%. Again, this analysis still leaves out a good 20% of the overall responses (ones which were mentioned one time or less), but when you consider the responses in context, it’s pretty clear that the negative responses were overwhelmingly from Republicans or Republican-leaning independents, and that there’s a much higher degree of descriptive unanimity among them.
Christopher got Quinnipiac to release the internal numbers on the word cloud that associated “liar” to Hillary Clinton. As we argued two weeks ago, the data “was mined with rank dishonesty, presented unethically by a pollster as a major find, and seized upon by an insider media class determined not to witness Hillary Clinton taking the oath of office in January of 2017.”
Christopher’s investigation supports the #HillaryMen case and calls into question the professional ethics of the Quinnipiac polling unit.
In light of this new evidence, #HillaryMen are formally calling on Quinnipiac University to issue a public apology to Hillary Clinton and to the American electorate. We call on Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., director of the poll, along with Peter A. Brown, assistant director; Tim Malloy, assistant director; April Kleinman, associate director; and the legendary New York newsman Mickey Carroll (the Q Poll spokesman) to repudiate and publicly apologize for the presentation of their August 27th poll results that branded Hillary Clinton a “liar.”
We ask Quinnipiac to retract and repudiate its false word cloud and we request that the Quinnipiac team undertake serious media outreach to alert reporters and commentators that the conclusion in their widely shared August 27th press release is false.
Only an apology and strong media outreach to retract and correct Quinnipiac’s false “findings” is a fair response to Tommy Christopher’s exposé and the #HillaryMen story.
We also ask that Quinnipiac University President John L. Lahey personally direct this effort to correct the University’s grievous error, as a signal of good faith to the American electorate and a sign that a fair and level playing field for the first serious woman presidential candidate is important to a liberal institution of higher learning.
The stakes are high, for both Quinnipiac’s reputation as university and for our public commons. Cultural sexism is rampant, particularly as the 2016 campaign takes shape and the forces of intolerance work to block the election of America’s first female president.
It is time for Quinnipiac to step up and make this right – in a way that the New York Times has lamentably failed to do.
And as we’ve contended in recent days, it is long past time for the national media and commentariat to apologize to Hillary and their audiences for eagerly and irresponsibly spreading false narratives as a cudgel to bash the most qualified American woman ever to seek the office of the presidency.
It is challenging enough for Hillary to take on nearly two dozen declared and undeclared candidates whose fire is directed primarily at her. It is even harder to attempt the heretofore impossible task of breaking the ultimate gender barrier. To add lies and innuendo from the media on top of these already formidable hurdles is the definition of injustice. If this gross mistreatment is allowed to stand, the 2016 election will become a national disgrace.
Peter Daou and Tom Watson founded #HillaryMen to provide actionable analysis of the 2016 campaign focusing on the gender barrier in U.S. politics. Peter is a former senior digital adviser to Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Global Initiative. He is a veteran of two presidential campaigns (Kerry '04 and Clinton '08). Tom is an author and Columbia University lecturer who advises companies and non-profits on social activism.

The Ladybirds' Kitchen
Part of the Live Inspired mantra is making home a great place to be, and for me that starts in the kitchen! I've added The Ladybirds' Kitchen as a division where people can see that food, families, animals, and lifestyle all come together in a perfectly jumbled mess of fancy crockery, food, and that slight panic that comes with trying to get an entire meal to come together at the same time. As a way to share what I was working on, I have made pots and pots of jam, chutney, cakes, and even studiend culinary and arts and nutrition for a solid approach.
I'm trying to eat healthier than ever before, without depriving my dinner guests of tastes we like - I know it seems like an oxymoron at times to me too, but it's a work in progress!
When there are Farmers' Markets, U-Picks, and people with "leftover" garden spoils they are giving away, you won't find us far away, tasting, oohing, aahing, and looking for recipes.
