The door creaked slowly behind him – a world decayed, falling apart, another bitter twist of the knife in his back. Metaphorically, of course, a steel tooth could no more bite through his shiny metal ass than an illness could fell him, no more than love could touch his micro-processors.
To live without love, but with a vicious understanding of the world – this was his curse. Circuitry whirred, his HUD indicating the cracks and inefficient designs surrounding him. Wearily he stepped into the gloom of the suicide booth.
A noose? What good was that to a robot?
Others stood in the darkness, each calculating the odds of his surviving an encounter with the rope. They were cutting back even here – gangs were exploiting the machines, suiciding for free, the ancient quarter-on-a-string trick.
Laboriously he calculated how best to repair the machine into some sort of working order. That was where we found him.

The logo is the first face of the chatbot. Its main strength is its visual nature: it is the leading channel for gaining information about the world around it for the majority of people. Thus, correctly selected logos create stable images in the mind and form a stable positive associative series with the chatbot.
A stylish and up-to-date logo is a great tool for promoting chatbots. Many companies make a logo chatbot wrong. As a result, people don’t use them because chatbots ’logos don’t grab their attention.
The logo allows you to convey to chatbot users everything you deem necessary. creating a chatbot must be approached responsibly and carefully. A well-designed logo enhances the popularity of a chatbot, while a poor quality logo only harms the chatbot.
Is it possible to make a visually impressive and effective logo for the chatbot itself? Yes, designing a high quality chatbot logo is more than realistic, but for that you need to know some configuration rules, choice of shades and other details.
Much has already been invented in today’s world, but this is not an excuse to copy elements used by other chatbots. At the same time, no one refuses to inspire successful alternatives and create something of their own: original, exceptional.
Even the coolest, most beautiful, neat, and relevant logo will not promote a chatbot if it does not reflect its area of operation. Users simply cannot understand what chatbot is doing.
Both properties are generally on the same level. Users remember overly complex and intricate logos worse than minimalist logos.
The Chatbot logo can use a huge variety of fonts. But how do you decide which one to use? You can do this by using the best tips for choosing a chatbot logo font.
The logo font should match your chat bot. It can be used to convey the strengths and features of a chatbot. For example, in a watch store chatbot, it’s best to use a serif font with smooth lines.
You can also analyze competitors. See what fonts they use in their chatbot logos. You don’t have to choose the same style, but tracking the overall direction is a good idea.
All elements of the logo, including the font style, should be mixed with each other. For example, large and heavy writing does not work for a minimalist data management chatbot logo.
When the chatbot logo displays multiple fonts at once, it looks absurd. It is important not to go overboard. It is optimal to use a chatbot logo with 1-2 different fonts (although it is better to stop at one type).
There must be enough space between the letters. This will make it easier for customers to understand what is written. Merging parts of the text should be avoided.
Don’t just do what everyone else is doing. You don’t have to choose a font with oriental themes for a Chinese food restaurant chatbot. You can use a more common style and describe the specialization of the chatbot with icons and colors.
The icon is an image in the logo. This element allows you to tell customers about the purpose of the chatbot without words. The icon is the first thing customers pay attention to when they see your logo. Therefore, you need to make sure that the IDs are selected correctly.
Below are basic tips for choosing the chatbot logo icon in any direction.
The theme icon should tell you as clearly as possible the workspace of your chat bot. For example, in a cafe, it is best to use images of coffee beans, mugs, coffee makers, etc. in the chatbot logo.
You can also use an abstract icon. This is a pretty bold step. But more and more companies are choosing such images for their logo.
The icon must match the font and color of the writing. For heavy headlines and dark colors, it is better to use a heavy image. This will give you a seamless brand that is made in the same style.
If all the elements of the logo look loaded and executed, realistic and large icons will completely overload the design. Therefore, it is important to try to keep the logo light and simple.
The color of the logo plays an important role in the attractiveness of the user. In addition, colors can tell a lot about the chatbot. To choose a color scheme, it is recommended to study logo color psychology. Each shade evokes certain associations in customers. And the wrong color can create the wrong impression of a chatbot.
I have collected the most important recommendations for color selection. These tips will make it easier for you to decide on the color of your chatbot logo.
It is always useful to analyze the work of the main “competitors” in the market. It allows you to identify the strengths and weaknesses of your competitors so you can leverage this to your brand’s advantage. The same goes for colors. You might want to look at which logo colors match the characters. You don’t have to use the same colors. But this information will help you move in the right direction.
In the Chatbot logo, it is important not to go overboard. To make the logo look beautiful and harmonious, it is better not to use more than two colors. Optimal to paint with one shading background and another – the main elements. You can use additional shades, but they must come from the primary colors. Ready-made color schemes can help you choose colors.

Ground-water quality and geochemistry in Dayton, Stagecoach, and Churchill Valleys, western Nevada
The U.S. Geological Survey investigated the quality of ground water in the Dayton, Stagecoach, and Churchill Valleys as part of the Carson River Basin National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) pilot study. Four aquifer systems have been de- lineated in the study area. Principal aquifers are unconsolidated deposits at altitudes of less than 4,900 feet above sea level and more than 50 feet below land surface. Shallow aquifers are at altitudes of less than 4,900 feet and less than 50 feet below land surface. Upland aquifers are above 4,900 feet and provide recharge to the principal aquifers. Thermal aquifers, defined as those having a water temperature greater than 30 degrees Celsius, are also present. Ground water used in Dayton, Stagecoach, and Churchill Valleys is pumped from principal aquifers in unconsolidated basin-fill deposits. Ground water in these aquifers originates as precipitation in the adjacent mountains and is recharged by the Carson River and by underflow from adjacent upstream valleys. Ground-water flow is generally parallel to the direction of surface-water flow in the Carson River. Ground water is discharged by pumping, evapo- transpiration, and underflow into the Carson River. The results of geochemical modeling indicate that as ground water moves from upland aquifers in mountainous recharge areas to principal aquifers in basin-fill deposits, the following processes probably occur: (1) plagioclase feldspar, sodium chloride, gypsum (or pyrite), potassium feldspar, and biotite dissolve; (2) calcite precipitates; (3) kaolinite forms; (4) small amounts of calcium and magnesium in the water exchange for potassium on aquifer minerals; and (5) carbon dioxide is gained or lost. The geochemical models are consistent with (1) phases identified in basin- fill sediments; (2) chemical activity of major cations and silica; (3) saturation indices of calcite and amorphous silica; (4) phase relations for aluminosilicate minerals indicated by activity diagrams; and (5) results of optical, X-ray diffraction, and scanning-electron microscopy examination of mineral grains in the aquifer sediments. Sulfur-isotopic composition of ground- water samples also supports the models. In general, the quality of ground water in the study area meets Nevada State drinking-water standards and is acceptable for most uses. In addition to analysis for major ions, samples were analyzed for 22 inorganic trace elements, 3 nutrients, and 4 radionuclides. Selenium in 1 sample is the only constituent that exceeded Nevada State primary drinking-water standards. Nevada State secondary- drinking water standards were exceeded for fluoride in 1 sample, for iron in 7 samples, and for manganese in 19 samples. Minor constituent con- centrations are generally the result of local redox conditions, and are primarily from minerals in volcanic and marine metasedimentary rocks, metal- oxide coatings on mineral grains, and organic matter.

Very trendy and sporty. Combined with the matching pants this really is a look. Great quality, fits a little bigger than I expected.
It’s super cute and I love the colors and it’s designed, but it’s a bit small on me and would like to exchange it
Love love love!! Makes me feel super cute and goes well with many leggings! In the picture I am wearing this top along with SR grey leggings.


SH*TTY LIVE BOOTLEGS OF NEW ANTHRAX SONGS
Low quality, crappy fan-recordings of Anthrax performing three new songs in Chicago in May have surfaced, and can be heard below. I don’t know how long we’ll be able to keep ’em up before the Anthrax Attorney intervenes, so enjoy ’em while you can.
It’s still really hard to tell very much about these songs based on these clips, but I will go on record right now as saying that i) new vocalist Dan Nelson sounds pretty fuckin’ good and ii) “Vampyres” is my personal favorite of the three (at least, based on these bootlegs).
Feel free to argue amongst yourselves.

In the Usuki City of Oita Prefecture, there is a place called Usuki Sekibutsu (Usuki Stone Buddhas), where nearly 60 Magaibutsu carved into the rock walls are lined up.
Magaibutsu “磨崖仏” refers to stone Buddha statues that have been dug into rock walls in their original state.
The Usuki Stone Buddhas have high artistic value and are representative of Japan’s Buddhist statues.
This article is about the Usuki Stone Buddha (Usuki Magaibutsu) in Oita Prefecture.
- About the Usuki Stone Buddha (Usuki Magaibutsu)
- Four Groups of Usuki Stone Buddhas
- Summary of Oita Usuki Magaibutsu (Stone Buddha Group)
About the Usuki Stone Buddha (Usuki Magaibutsu)
Usuki Stone Buddha, designated as a national treasure
It is not clear when the Usuki stone Buddha (Magaibutsu) group in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu was created.
They are thought to have been carved into the rock walls of Usuki City between the Heian and Kamakura periods.
In Japan, there are many different types of Magaibutsu all over the country, but only this one, Usuki Ishibutsu, has been designated as a national treasure.
The Buddha images in the Magaibutsu are all unique, and many of them have such beautiful faces that they could be considered works of art.
Four Groups of Usuki Stone Buddhas
The four groups of cliffs in the Usuki Stone Buddha are divided into the following four groups.
Hoki Stone Buddha Group 1 and Group 2
After purchasing a ticket, walk through the entrance for a while and you will see the first and second group of stone statues of Hoki stone Buddha on your right. The word “hoki” means cliff or precipice.
This is a corner where stone Buddha statues such as Nyorai Sanzon, Jizo Jyuoh and Amida Sanzon are lined up on the rock wall. The stone Buddha in the photo above is a statue of Amitabha Sanzon, which was carved in the Heian period.
Sannosan Stone Buddha Group (Sannosan Sekibutsu Cluster)
As we walked along the route, the next thing we saw was the Sannosan Stone Buddha. When we visited, they were restoring the statue, and scaffolding was set up around the Nyorai statue in the center.
The blue light that the statue is exposed to in the photo above is ultraviolet light. When moss and ferns grow on the rock walls, they gradually damage the stone Buddha, so they use ultraviolet light to keep it from deteriorating.
This group of Sannoyama stone Buddhas is also a work from the Heian period.
Furuzono Stone Buddha Group
And here is the representative stone Buddha of Usuki, the Koen stone Buddha group.
Only the head of the Dainichi Nyorai Buddha, which used to be in the center, was displayed with its head down, but it has now been restored to its original position, and we can see the Dainichi Nyorai statue in its beautiful condition.
All of the stone Buddha statues in Usuki are covered by the roof of the main hall for protection.
Summary of Oita Usuki Magaibutsu (Stone Buddha Group)
Magaibutsu with distinctive facial features
Each of the stone statues of Buddha in Usuki has a different face.
Some of their outlines have become a little blurred due to weathering over the years, but all of them have their own distinctive faces.
In particular, the Dainichi Nyorai statue in the Koen stone Buddha group had a simple, child-like face at first glance, but I never got tired of looking at it.
If you have a chance to travel to Oita Prefecture, please visit the Usuki Stone Buddhas.
Oita Usuki Stone Buddhas Opening Hours, Access, and Parking
|To get to the Usuki Stone Buddha, it is a 5-minute drive from the Usuki Interchange and a 20-minute drive from Usuki Station.
|Adults: 550 yen (Children: 270 yen)
|6am to 7pm (6pm from October to March)
|There is a free parking lot in front of the site.
Other sightseeing spots in the area
The Usuki Stone Buddha is located near popular hot spring resorts such as Beppu Hot Spring and Kurokawa Hot Spring.

The Stoeger M3500 is a semi-automatic shotgun that uses interchangeable choke tubes to regulate the size of the shot pattern. Choke tubes are available in a variety of sizes, from very tight “constriction” chokes that produce small, concentrated patterns ideal for hunting or trap shooting, to more open “cylinder bore” or “improved cylinder” chokes that disperse the shot over a wider area.
When choosing choke tubes for the Stoeger M3500, it’s important to consider what type of shooting you’ll be doing most often. If you’re mainly going to be using the shotgun for hunting, then a tighter choke constriction is probably going to be your best bet. On the other hand, if you’re going to be doing a lot of clay target shooting, then a more open choke might be a better choice.
There are also ” choke tubes available that can be used for both hunting and target shooting. These “universal” or “multi-purpose” chokes typically have a constriction somewhere between the cylinder bore and full choke, and can be a good choice if you want one shotgun that can do it all.
No matter what type of choke tube you choose, make sure it’s compatible with the Stoeger M3500. Chokes for other types of shotguns won’t fit the M3500, and using an incompatible choke could damage the gun.
If you’re not sure what type of choke is right for you, talk to a qualified gunsmith or your local sporting goods retailer. They can help you choose the right choke tube for your needs.

For those whose visit is limited by time, the 40-minute drive around town on this hourly train is a bargain not to be missed. The inexpensive price includes a set of earphones. The pre-recorded commentary (available in ten languages) with Mozart piano concerti playing quietly in the background, provides many interesting facts as each historic site comes into view.
The journey begins and ends at the Schweizerhof Hotel. On fine-weather days, it’s recommended to arrive early as many trips sell-out quickly. (Customized trips can also be arranged.)
There’s a lot to see and learn as the train weaves its way through traffic and the narrow streets. Here are just a few of the highlights:
- The city walls were built between 1350 and 1500; a facelift is currently underway but most of the towers (notably the Zyt tower which houses the oldest clock in Lucerne; due to that singular distinction—the clock was built in 1535—it has the honour of striking one minute earlier than any other town timepiece) are still open for public viewing.
- Two of the beautifully maintained churches along the way are The Church of St. Leodegar with its impressive twin spires and the Jesuit Church—a marvel of baroque architecture and the venue for well-loved masses—Mozart’s C Minor Mass, K. 427 was performed in 2010.
- The world-famous, covered Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke) can be seen from several angles during the trek around town. Built in the fourteenth century—its famous pictures added in the seventeenth century—it took just minutes for the “Great fire” of 1993 to destroy most of the art; the bridge was more readily repaired.
- As well as its world-class concert hall, the KKL (Kultur und Kongresszentrum Luzern) also houses Switzerland’s fourth largest art museum. Located directly across from the train station (where the first train from Basel arrived in 1886, beginning the country’s superlative rail service), it’s the city’s most impressive modern building with all manner of treasures awaiting concertgoers and art lovers alike.
- Surrounded by mediaeval walls and driving over several cobbled streets, the sense of “old town” is further enhanced by a view of the Hofgarten Hotel, now a boutique hotel; it is the oldest in town, not far from the Old Swiss House where traditional cuisine is served in fine style daily.
- The Lion’s Square is also on the route. Here the primary attraction is the Lion Monument (Löwendenkmal), sculpted into the rock in 1821 by Danish artist Bertel Thorvaldson. It commemorates the hundreds of Swiss mercenaries who lost their lives needlessly in the “protection” of Louis XVI. It’s a lesson still to be learned.
When the train completes its circuit, every passenger will have a great overview of Lucerne and come away with lots of ideas for a more detailed look at some the fascinating sights within easy walking distance. JWR


Women’s Action Coalition and Guitar Club hosted an open-mic fundraiser for domestic violence awareness in Newton Hall on Thursday Oct. 30. The fundraiser was part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month and included performances of a variety of genres and styles, as well as a raffle. All donations went toward Chances and Changes, a local shelter for victims of domestic violence. The event had a very casual vibe, with some performers reading lyrics off notebook paper and engaging with members of the close-knit crowd directly. Most played either the ukulele or guitar, but the music was varied. The opening performance wasn’t technically music at all.
Junior Greg Stewart started the show off right with some original slam poetry. He rattled off letters, including some very hard-to-swallow lines like “xenophobia played like a xylophone” and “zero hour is upon us.” At times the verses tumbled out so fast that focusing on the words became a challenge, if a rewarding one.
For his part, senior Mark Susmann performed a couple of original instrumentals on the acoustic guitar. Walking the line between soft rock and country, the first melody was a slightly sad, nostalgic-sounding piece, while the second song was happier, with chords that built on one another for a rich, soaring sound. These songs were emotional, dynamic and felt complete— even without lyrics.
Freshman Blaise Tangney also played an impressive guitar set and sang original songs. He strummed his guitar enthusiastically, playing bluegrass-infused rock and rasping out surprisingly romantic lyrics to songs with names like “One Heck of a Girl.” His music feels like it’s from another time––maybe even another state.
Halfway through the event, WAC president sophomore Jes Heppler took a break from introducing the performers to read some sobering statistics and talk about domestic abuse. “Violence isn’t just physical,” Heppler said. “Emotional and psychological abuse are just as common.” She pointed out that by raising money for Chances and Changes—one of the only shelters for victims of domestic abuse in Livingston County—Geneseo students can help make a difference in their community.
Senior Chris Coffey closed out the event with some original songs on electric guitar. “I don’t normally play by myself,” Coffey said. “Some of you might know me as the bald guy who plays in Red Kettle—if you know Red Kettle.” His songs had a full, holistic quality, almost as if he were still playing with a full band. He drummed on his guitar often, creating an electronic sound that was somehow simultaneously deep and trippy. The highlight of his set was a funeral dirge of sorts. “I wrote this for the art department when it closed,” Coffey said with good humor.
WAC has donated to Chances and Changes in past, but this open-mic event was new territory for the organization. “We didn’t want to just do tabling,” Heppler said. “We wanted people to come together and enjoy some music while supporting a good cause.”

A Denver-based attorney who has handled some of the city’s most high-profile cases and represented several people facing the death penalty, will represent the suspected gunman in the El Paso, Texas mass shooting, Denver7 has learned.
David Lane said Tuesday evening through a statement he was appointed to represent 21-year-old Patrick Crusius by federal court in El Paso.
“I have accepted this appointment because I believe the Constitution of the United States of America has got to be preserved protected and defended vigorously in order for all of us to maintain our freedom,” said Lane in the statement. “This includes the 6th Amendment’s right to counsel which is among the most cherished rights we have.”
Lane, who began his career as a public defender in New York in 1980, has been practicing law in Colorado for more than 30 years. Federal courts have certified him as “learned counsel” for federal death penalty cases, according to his law firm’s website.
One of those cases involved representing a man who was facing the death penalty in connection with the killing of a Colorado corrections officer in 2012. Previously, Lane also represented a man who pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in the beating death of a corrections officer in 2003. The man was sentenced to death but his sentenced was overturned in 2007.
Among the city’s most high-profile cases, Lane joined as co-counsel in a class-action lawsuit challenging the city’s homeless sweeps.
In a 2009 profile by The Denver Post, Lane said he saw redeeming value in everyone, a belief that was formed while he practiced law in New York.
“When you’re working as a public defender, and you see the things that your clients do, you can’t help but understand — not necessarily excuse what they do — but understand how they got to where they got, and that’s a life-changing insight,” Lane said. “When you see the problems of poverty and race and just the despair in the ghettos of Brooklyn for seven years, you come away with different insights into the world than people who are not exposed to those things.”
Crusis, of Allen, Texas, is being held without bond on capital murder charges in the shooting inside a Walmart that left 22 people dead and more than a dozen wounded.
Police say Crusius surrendered and identified himself as the shooter following the massacre. He told police that he was targeting Mexicans, according to an arrest affidavit.
Federal authorities are treating the mass shooting as a case of domestic terrorism.
CNN contributed to this report.

The Great Gatsby is a well-known masterpiece of F. Scott Fitzgerald representing the American hue of its time mainly focusing on the ramifications of Roaring 20’s. The book and the movie both share the ideology of the time depicting the fatal properties of the so called American dream. However, it is evident that these two media differ in terms of drawing the attention of the audience/the reader. While the book starts with the crucial advice Nick Caraway’s father gave which would probably help the book weakening the possible criticism it would get after being published because it already highlights the hypocrite social circle, corrupted family association and the source of the rapid riches of the time in a sharp way, the film seems largely focusing on the love affair of Gay Gatsby preparing the minds for the clear romance they are going to watch. Furthermore, the audience would encounter some modifications on the plot like the story starting from the half with clear implications about the end and also the audience would not need to read between the lines but they are given notable clues about the essence of the events.
With the first scene, the film immediately unfolds the story of Gatsby and foreshadows the core of the future events thanks to the love song whose lyrics overlaps with the plot in a quite extend and also the perspective focusing on the photo of Daisy mainly in a local newspaper and also some of them in a room. While Fitzgerald seems to care much about the atmosphere he should create as to place the plot in a proper way, the film aims at the attention from the audience clarifying the hidden insight of Gatsby much quicker than the book. That might be due to the different media they use because it is easier to tell many things at one time by a scene in which the background of the place, some dialogs, a piece of song and the movements of the characters (gestures, body language) could be included simultaneously.
As the story goes on, it is notable that we do not hear much from Tom; his insight. The point of view rather turns into an omniscient one, the story does not aim at clarifying the mind of Tom but it puts the audience at the centre instead. Due to the change in Tom’s role, he does not have to question all the things he encounters; he does not really have to be the bright one. When it comes to Gatsby, he is more handsome than expected like the extremely opposite character of Daisy’s husband; Tom. That might be helpful to fulfill the place of the hero he supposed to be. He is not the shy one anymore asking to the point question to Daisy even before he invited her family to join the party he is going to give. Here we encounter some other changes throughout the plot like the lovers (Daisy and Gatsby) are more direct to each other explaining why their life is the way it is. While Gatsby talks about his life before their second meeting with Daisy, how he has struggled as to reach; to get her back, Daisy explains why and how she has chosen Tom in a linear way. The dialogs are clearer in the movie, though, like Daisy crying out “Rich girls do not marry with poor boys, don’t you know that Jay”? Daisy is more conscious about her mistakes and she knows everything Tom does in a way just trying to be blind as to keep up with that modern life of America. There have been some changes also as to make the scenes more romantic like the promise of Daisy to tell Tom what is going on between the lovers. The lovers also wear their old clothes as to create a nostalgia in which they could deceive themselves about getting back the time they already lost. The only flashback happens through the dance which is placed in a different setting and the conversation in the book, though.
Even if there are some changes in the movie, the aim of creating the realistic American life of roaring 20’s never changes, even the differences between the movie and the book deepen the depiction of the society. There are two scenes about which some words are needed to be spoken. The first is the dancing woman whose stockings goes down which is not a disturbing thing for her. That would probably symbolize the corruption of America and the unconscious acceptance of the process. People no longer feel the pressure of the religion or better we say the pressure of the society. The latter scene to be analyzed is the one in which the perspective moves on two girls wearing the same clothes and the same make-up looking at each other with passionate eyes. The producer tries to draw the extreme line of American people/their life. The flow of their American stream goes beyond the norms breaking even the borders of gender; ramifications like Lesbianism and Gayness.
Symbolism could be used in both media, yet it differs in terms of the style and the effects it brings about. For example, the focus on the advertisement called as The Eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg enables the reader get the notion of the change in American society from religion (Mr. Wilson) or any kind of belief system to science/ technology and industry (Tom or Gatsby) in the movie and there are many occasions referring to that commercial. Therefore it is easier to realize the link thanks to the visional aid of movies. The item or even the dialog could be the same in both; however, the effects get profound in the movie, which does not always have positive aspects. While the symbols become clearer and deeply affective, the creativity or the imagination of the audience suffers in a great deal and the vitality of the symbolic action vanishes leaving a clear path for the audience to follow, though. For example, Mrs. Wilson tries to shout at Tom, while he is getting the car filled. She is not able to make her voice heard. Afterwards she gets very nervous and starts to hit the window till the glass gets broken leaving her hand in blood. That foreshadows the future miserable death of the woman and her end cannot be helped even if Tom is also there. With such romantic and deeply condensed scenes in terms of emotion, the film cannot go beyond the borders of Romance. In conclusion, The Great Gatsby is like an ill story of lovers in an individualistic circle, while it is more embracing not only a whole American society but also the American dream rooted in the base structure when it comes to the book.

Is it too bold to say that 50 is the new 50? Or maybe it's not bold enough.
Pro-age advocate and founder of Goodbye Crop Top, Wendy Euler, shares why she has a positive mindset when it comes to aging and all about the community she has built with Goodbye Crop Top.
Wendy and I talked about embracing age and defying societal norms. She believes that 50 is not the new 40—it's the new 50,and that's something worth celebrating! Wendy started her movement because she noticed a lack of conversation around ageism and the pressure to conform to anti-aging ideals. She's anti-antiaging, and I couldn't agree more!
Recently, Wendy's mission caught the attention of The Washington Post; the article titled "Why Women Need to Ignore Societal Messages about Growing Older" struck a chord with so many of us. Wendy's positive message about embracing age and defying invisibility is spreading like wildfire.
Here is what we talked about:
- Why she know that we have to change the conversation around aging
- How the name Goodbye Crop Top was born (omg I love this story!)
- What you can do to help spread the message that aging is a privilege

Ginnie Mae Seasoning
Ginnie Mae recently released APM 19-05, which updated seasoning requirements following Senate Bill S.1749. As a reminder, effective August 1, 2019, PennyMac aligned with these updated seasoning requirements for VA. The note date of the refinance loan must be on or after the later of the date
- on which the borrower has made at least six monthly payments on the loan being refinanced; and
- the date that is 210 days after the first payment due date of the loan being refinanced.
Please review Ginnie Mae APM 19-03, 19-05 and Ginnie Mae MBS 5500.3 Rev 1, Chapter 24 for complete details on when seasoning is applicable. The refinances of a loan with no scheduled payments, the refinance of non-mortgage debt only, or the refinance of a permanent financing construction loan may be excluded from Ginnie Mae seasoning requirement. Any applicable VA and PennyMac seasoning must be met.
VA High LTV Refinances
As a clarification, PennyMac is aligning with Ginnie Mae’s LTV exception for Permanent Financing Construction loans, and will allow up to 100% LTV for these transactions. Permanent Financing Construction Loans are loans used to provide permanent financing for a newlyconstructed or renovated property and to satisfy an existing lien against such property resulting from the corresponding construction or renovation project.
VA full doc refinance transactions with LTVs greater than 90% must be delivered to PennyMac by September 30, 2019. In addition, these loans must be purchased by October 10, 2019.

If you’re wondering what the ongoing “occupy” movement is doing and have noticed that mainstream media news isn’t clearing up any confusion but adding to it instead, don’t despair. There is a cure–it’s the news coming direct and live from the streets of America, London, Greece, Ireland, Canada and around the world. This is not objective, nice or neatly packaged media footage that has been edited to fit a television time slot. It’s real-time with real people dealing with real issues. There are no professional talking heads in this new news media. But there is often plenty of talk to be had–good, bad and ugly all swirling together in a stew of information unlike anything on your television. The people who bring this news online are not suited or hairbrushed fashion plates. Personal imagery is not their priority. Catching the action and information as it comes down the pipe is their goal. No one is paid. These are volunteer journalists from the grassroots. It’s not all 24/7. It’s not pretty. It’s not spin. It’s just what’s happening folks. Often it’s downright messy. Sometimes the police get violent.
Here a few of those who stream news from the concrete streets. This is only a sampling of the folks out there using their phones, laptops and cameras who contribute to the new news evolving right now:
Tim Pool of “we are the other 99%” tirelessly follows the occupy action on the streets of New York City. Appreciative local NYC viewers bring him umbrellas, gloves, food and coffee while he is on a streaming mission with occupy wall street actions. Pool is cool-headed, gives good commentary, has a great eye for the scene and seems to have the endurance of a marathon runner.
On the west coast Spencer Mills aka OakFoSho has been covering the occupy action in Oakland. During his recent stream from LA he shared his decision to quit his job in order to try to cover as much of the west coast occupy movement action on the coast as possible. OakFoSho makes no apologies for his NON violent stance or bias. He seems to have a penchant for chatting up the police whenever possible. One might wish he’d keep a safer distance from the riot gears at times. He has brand spanking new site compliments of a friends web effort at
Oakland is also livestreamed at http://www.livestream.com/occupyoakland by the one and only Jahrastafari and/or legind. And OakFoSho’s ustream is also featured. Most Occupy locations have their own media livestream crews: Seattle, Toronto, NYC, Portland, Nashville, London, Auckland, Los Angeles et al. And each one has its very own flavor. This is real diversity in media.
On the morning of Oakland’s first raid in Oscar Grant Plaza the ONLY news coverage of any kind came from Punkboy streaming via his phone. His efforts got him into the press conference held that day where even the mainstream press tried to ask hard questions like “How is Oakland going to pay for all this police action?” The reply was less than adequate. Those of us who watched that morning thank Officer Bolton for finding Punkboy on the street outside city hall and getting him into the not open to the general public press conference.
In Dublin, Ireland currently one man, Irelandseyes, does marathon livestreams from Dame Street. From the Occupy camp that kettles the Central Bank come scenes of the street, marches, music, and endless talk of the Irish. So far the gardra and local businesses have been very good to Occupy Dame Street. Even the security garda in the 24/7 McDonalds, Moses, has been willing to greet the livestream chatters while Irelandseyes “recharges.” Other Irish occupy camps are in the process of setting up livestreams and ustreams: Cork, Waterford, Galway, Tipperary.
Athens Greece there is the ever energetic voice of multilingual George and his cohorts of StopCarteltv-Gr. When the streets Athens were full of protestors and tear gas, the StopCarteltv crew was in the midst of it all, including the tear gas. They also covered the protest occupation of Greece’s Electric Company when the government told the company to start collecting a new surcharge tax. Their coverage is ongoing and ever evolving on issues. Also, George will get to English at some point in his commentary at http://www.livestream.com/stopcarteltvgr

What can I say? Olbermann is just so good at scoring direct hits that it’s downright spooky. Who is occupying whose mind here? Olbermann mine or me Olbermann’s? It doesn’t really matter because the bottom line is that we’re on target when it comes to The Billionaire Bloom of New York City and his handling of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Heck, even NPR said at one point that it wouldn’t cover OWS unless there was violence involved. Gee, that must have been Mayor Bloomberg’s cue card to show his secret support for the people pointing fingers at the folks who destroyed the economy. Nothing else makes sense, does it? Why else would The Bloom march out New York’s finest to deal with peaceful protestors every chance he gets? With every confrontational step he takes, The Bloom aids and abets the very folks certain big banks want to banish into the pits of debt slavery of all ilks. A huge round of applause is due The Bloom for preventing the occupiers from becoming complacent in Liberty Park and encouraging everyone into the streets. According to one NYPD estimate 32,000 people accepted the mayor’s latest invitation to stomp through the streets and across the Brooklyn Bridge. Kudus to The Bloom for revealing the very uncomfortable reality of the world in which we are living.

Do you get the feeling something serious is going on here? Just for a moment let concpets of positive social evolution occupy your mind. Just one moment at a time is fine. Really, everyone moves at their own pace–even the one percent like The Bloom.

So don’t wait, use the nifty form on the Tar Sands Action site, call (202) 456-1111, or fax 202456-2461 to lend your voice to this protest of environmental destruction.
Will the mainstream media cover this event? Let’s not hold our breath considering the blackout of Oakland’s General Strike and the march of THOUSANDS of people who shut down the port on Nov. 2. If mainstream media has th gall to ignore that massive turnout they’ve definitely got no problem ignoring this Tar Sands Protest today.

It’s November and that means “official” Native American Heritage Month in the US of A. Folks it’s time to get down with the genocidal history of the United States of America. Before the Japanese were sent to camps for being Japanese in America, the Indigenous people were forced onto reservations which I consider prisons without walls. Genocide in America is ongoing to the present for Traditional Indigenous people who have endured the theft of their land and children and destruction of their culture for several hundred years. Columbus Day does not engender warm fuzzy memories for everyone now living in the Americas north, south and in between.
To kick off my observance of Native American Heritage month here are two trailers and clip from a new film, “Reel Injun” by Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond. Read more at http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2011/11/native-american-film-festival-highlights-history/
We all love movies, don’t we? Think about how films have formed your view of Native Americans and history. Consider how those often called “the losers” view the same events–and the portrayal in films. For those of you who adore the movie “Dances With Wolves” ask yourself why you like the film? And please think about why “the Only Good Indian” never got on the national movie theatre circuit in the United States of America. Yes, you can find it in parts on the tube of you. Time to get beyond stereotypes and into reality.

LinkedIn loses appeal over public data scraping
Judge rules that giving big tech companies "free rein" over who can use public user data risked creating "information monopolies"
A US federal court has rejected efforts from LinkedIn to stop a startup from harvesting publically-accessible information off the professional network.
The Circuit Court of Appeals let stand a 2017 preliminary injunction that required LinkedIn to give hiQ Labs access to user accounts that were publicly available.
The decision has set the Microsoft-owned company back in its battle against 'data scraping', which it said violates its users' privacy. However, Circuit Judge Marsha Berzon said hiQ showed it faced irreparable harm and might go out of business without access.
She also added that giving companies such as LinkedIn "free rein" over who can use public user data risked creating "information monopolies" that harm the public interest.
"LinkedIn has no protected property interest in the data contributed by its users, as the users retain ownership over their profiles," Berzon wrote, according to Reuters. "And as to the publicly available profiles, the users quite evidently intend them to be accessed by others."
"Others", in this case, refers to hiQ, which is a San Francisco company that uses this kind of data to provide prediction models to businesses. The firm's algorithms can be used to estimate when employees might leave or workout areas where in-demand skills can be found.
The company was originally in court on August 2017 and was awarded a preliminary injunction that meant LinkedIn had to allow it access. Classified ad website Craigslist supported LinkedIn, warning the injunction could have a "dangerous impact" that could lead to spam and phishing attacks.
However, Berzon said, however, the startup had raised serious questions about LinkedIn's conduct, such as whether it could invoke a federal law targeting computer fraud and abuse to block "free riders" from accessing user data.
"Of course, LinkedIn could satisfy its 'free rider' concern by eliminating the public access option, albeit at a cost to the preferences of many users and, possibly, to its own bottom line," she said.
IT Pro has contacted LinkedIn for comment.

I tried tai chi this morning for the first time, and it helped me start the day much calmer than usual. Still feeling grounded and peaceful just an hour or two later, coincidentally someone shared this quote with me. It's too long to tweet so thought I would post it here.
"Calmness is a huge gift. And once you master it, you will be able to respond in a useful way to every difficult situation that decides to walk into your heart." ~Geri Larkin
Sunday, January 2, 2011
"Why be saddled with this thing called life expectancy? Of what relevance to an individual is such a statistic? Am I to concern myself with an allotment of days I never had and was never promised? Must I check off each day of my life as if I am subtracting from this imaginary hoard? No, on the contrary, I will add each day of my life to my treasure of days lived. And with each day, my treasure will grow, not diminish." ~Robert Brault
Happy new year, one and all!

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Four months ago, six-year-old Yiana Ballard needlessly died after she struggled and then sank, inexplicably unnoticed by any lifeguard or pool staff, to the bottom of a District of Columbia-operated swimming pool. Today, her family announced a $75 million lawsuit over the city's negligence that led to her death, as well as the horrific aftermath in which, without even a shred of evidence that Yiana's parents had anything to do with the drowning, D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department imprisoned Yiana's parents for over four hours, and D.C. Child and Family Services officials threatened to remove them from their surviving children.
A seven-count complaint filed in D.C. Superior Court on October 7, 2010 by Yiana's father Edward Ballard, mother Deana Parrott-Ballard and other surviving family members details a story of negligence and deliberate indifference on the part of the District toward a family that just witnessed the death of a beloved child.
"This tragedy could have been prevented many times over and we want to send a message to the District that this must never, ever happen again," said Erik D. Bolog, attorney for the Ballard family. "But this case is not just about the negligence of the District that led to the drowning death of a young child; it is about how the family was treated immediately following this horrible tragedy. Instead of showing the family compassion and concern about their loss at the hands of District employees, District officials treated them abusively and as criminals."
The Drowning Prevention Foundation reports that 19 percent of drowning deaths involving children occur in public pools with certified lifeguards present. The Ballard's lawsuit centers on the widely covered tragedy of June 23, 2010, in which Yiana remained submerged and motionless in the deep end of the Turkey Thicket indoor swimming pool, unnoticed by inattentive lifeguards. When finally roused to action—by the shouted insistence of a pool patron—the possibility of rescue was further foreclosed by the lifeguards' negligent administration of CPR and poolside kits that lacked necessary emergency masks and pumps. The inattentiveness of the Turkey Thicket lifeguards was a notorious problem long before Yiana's death; in March of 2010, a frequent pool visitor emailed the Department of Parks & Recreation, noting that lifeguards frequently used cell phones and slept while on duty. She called it "a recipe for disaster."
The pain of Yiana's death—eye-witnessed by her parents and sister—was greatly compounded by the disturbing events that followed. MPD Detective Charles Hilliard insisted Mr. and Mrs. Ballard leave the hospital bedside of their daughter who had just died and proceed to the police station for interrogation. Having no cause to suspect the parents of any wrongdoing, MPD kept Mr. and Mrs. Ballard isolated and locked in separate interrogation rooms for four hours. Det. Hilliard harshly interrogated both parents and denied each of their requests for counsel made in reaction to their bizarre and traumatizing detention.
Even after the interrogations, Det. Hilliard kept Mr. and Mrs. Ballard against their will at the police station until the arrival of Child and Family Services Agency employee Kenneth Frazier. By 9:30 p.m. the Ballards had spent six hours at the police station, when Mr. Frazier threatened to remove their surviving children if they did not acquiesce to an immediate interrogation. Following that questioning, in which Mr. Frazier falsely accused the Ballards of abusing their children, he insisted—again, at the threat of taking the children into protective custody—that the Ballards allow him to immediately interview the children. At approximately 11:00 p.m. on the day of their sister's death, the children, aged 8, 10 and 17, were subjected to intensive and accusatory questioning by Mr. Frazier.
The complaint charges the District of Columbia, Det. Charles Hilliard, Kenneth Frazier and Mr. Frazier's supervisor William Johnson with seven counts including wrongful death, gross negligence and deprivation of civil rights. It seeks compensatory and punitive damages in excess of $75 million. At today's press conference, the Ballards also announced plans to donate a portion of the potential recovery to fund lifeguard training for the District pool in order to prevent a similar tragedy from occurring again.

If and when Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas submits his request for Palestinian membership at the United Nations later this week, he will not be able to claim that he is doing so on behalf of a majority of his people.
Many Palestinians have already told Abbas what they think of his plan -- they oppose the statehood bid because they want a state on all of what they consider Palestine, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River.
The refugees are also worried that UN recognition of a Palestinian state "only" on the pre-1967 lines would deprive them of the "right of return" to their original homes inside Israel.
So while Abbas has won the support of more than 120 countries for his statehood bid, he does not seem to enjoy the backing of most Palestinian factions, especially the Islamic Jihad, and Hamas -- which wants a state that would replace the Israel, and not just a small one next to Israel.
Many Palestinians also say that Abbas does not have a mandate to demand a state only on the pre-1967 lines. They do not accept a two-state solution, which is the reason they are opposed to the statehood bid. They say all the land is theirs; and that Israel has no right to exist.
Although a few public opinion polls published in the West Bank on the eve of Abbas's visit to New York have indicated that a majority of Palestinians support the statehood bid, the credibility of such surveys has always been in question: most of the polls are funded by groups affiliated in one way or another with the Palestinian leadership in the West Bank.
It is also not even clear what percentage of the Palestinians Abbas and his top aides represent. The PLO and Fatah institutions, that approved his UN move, are all dominated by his loyalists or officials who are on his payroll.
Abbas has chosen to ignore the voices of the opposition -- including those that came from within his inner circle. His spokesmen have dismissed the opposition by accusing its leaders of "conspiring" with Israel to thwart the statehood bid.
There are also a large number of Palestinians who see the statehood bid as a political "stunt" that is only aimed at strengthening Abbas's status among his people by making him appear as a strong and determined leader who dared to challenge the US and Israel.
Abbas has spent the past few weeks working hard to win international recognition for his plan to seek Palestinian membership in the UN. His representatives and diplomats visited dozens of countries around the world to convince their governments to support the statehood bid.
But Abbas did not go to the Gaza Strip to talk to the Palestinians living there about his statehood bid. Nor did he talk to major Palestinian factions such as Hamas, which controls the entire Gaza Strip. He negotiated with almost all the governments in the world about the statehood plan, but never asked himself whether he enjoys the support of most Palestinians.
Abbas cannot even claim that he represents the 1.5 million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip or the 4 million Palestinians scattered in different places around the world. His term in office expired in January 2009 -- a fact that has not prevented him from staying in power. But because of the power struggle between Abbas's Fatah faction and the Hamas, Palestinians have not been able to hold presidential, parliamentary or municipal elections over the past five years.
At present, Abbas cannot set foot in the Gaza Strip because Hamas expelled him from there in the summer of 2007. He cannot even visit his private residence in Gaza City, which has since been seized by Hamas.
Abbas could, however, at least have tried to ask the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, and the refugee camps in the Arab countries, about his plan. It would have been better had he held a referendum about the statehood bid to see what the majority of the Palestinians really wanted.
Abbas's statehood bid will not only damage the Palestinian Authority's relations with the US, Israel and several EU countries; it will seriously deepen divisions among the Palestinians as well.

House Ways and Means Committee chairman, Dan Cooper, is looking for ways to trim the state's budget by $500 million. And he thinks a shorter school week for public school students could do much to help.
South Carolina lawmakers are creating five proposals that would cut the school week and standardize testing, and theoretically not impede students' education.
Read more stories on this subject in our state budget topic page.Along with other cuts, the cut would save the state $240 million, getting them nearly to the halfway mark.
Making these cuts will allow schools to use state money however they need as opposed to being ordered how to spend their budget by state officials.
The Post and Courier discusses the benefits of cutting the school week:
On the potential of moving to a four-day week, (Jim) Rex said school districts immediately would see a 20 percent savings in fuel, drivers' salaries and other personnel costs. Schools would have longer days but not spend as much money in delivering instruction, he said.
If you feel strongly about it contact the South Carolina Department of Education.

The first BIS disc dedicated to the music of Alfred Schnittke was released in January 1987 – almost 20 years ago. Since then, our Schnittke Edition has qrown to 20 volumes with the present disc completing the cycle of the composer's eight finished symphonies. (At Schnittke's death in 1998, his Symphony No. 9 was left uncompleted.)
Symphony No. 8 was composed in 1994, and to some extent exemplifies Schnittke's ambiguous position as a Russian composer of German ethnicity, combining as it does a Germanic organized structure with an intense Russian melancholy.
Less chaotic than its predecessor, Symphony No. 7, it is a coherent, profound and solemn work. The programme is completed by two shorter orchestral works from the same period: Symphonic Prelude (1993) and For Liverpool (1994). This is the first Schnittke disc from the Norrköping Symphony Orchestra under its chief conductor Lü Jia, but the team will be familiar from our recent three-disc series of the orchestral music of Ingvar Lidholm, where the interpretations were highly praised by the reviewers: »excellent performances«, »superbly played« and »remarkably full of energy and rich in timbre« were some of the verdicts.
FonoForum 08/05: »Großen Anteil an dem Zauber dieser Einspielung haben das überraschend starke Orchester aus der schwedischen Provinz und sein asiatischer Chefdirigent. Bravourös meistern die Blechbläser ihre teils abenteuerlichen Soli, geheimnisvoll bleiben die offenen Schlüsse in der Schwebe.«


Khaqan Abbasi meets Nawaz Sharif in London during US visit
LONDON (92 News) - Former premier Shahid Khaqan Abbasi , during his visit to the US where he had to inquire about health of his ailing sister, met Nawaz Sharif in London.
In his meeting with former PM Nawaz Sharif, who is in London for medical treatment, Abbasi condoled the death of his mother. It was also reported that he conveyed PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif's message to his elder brother.
Speaking to the journalists, the former premier lashed out at the PTI-led incumbent government and said that the alliance of opposition under the banner of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) would last till the completion of its objectives.
"Every moment of the current government is heavy loss for the country. The sooner the government is sent home as the better for the country," Khaqan Abbasi maintained. He also said that it was incomprehensible for Imran Khan not to go to Machh to offer condolences to the bereaved.
"The only solution to Pakistan's problems is to hold new elections. Don't be afraid of arrests, we will participate completely in the Senate elections. Due to Indian steps regarding Kashmir, Pakistan should have close the border and severed all ties," the former minister mentioned.
The sources also said that the two would likely have another meeting wherein they would discuss issues pertaining to PDM strategy and next plans. "Abbasi would also discuss the PML-N's strategy for the upcoming Senate session in his next meeting with Nawaz Sharif," it added.
Khaqan Abbasi arrived in London last night after a visit to the United States where he had travelled to inquire health about his ailing sister. He would be staying in the city for at least two days before returning to Pakistan on January 12.
The PML-N leader had left for the US on December 24 to visit his sister after the PTI government gave him a one-time permission to go abroad.


In Bahamas, the biomass can be burned using conventional combustion technology like grate furnace or fluidized bed boilers. For power generation the biomass would be charged to the furnace of a steam boiler generator system industrial.Steam produces by the boiler will then drive a steam turbine generator to generate electricity.

Demographic paper Aging Population in Southwest Florida

Demographic Paper: Aging Population in Southwest Florida
The aging population in Southwest Florida is the fastest increasing issues in the nation today. According to some demographic data it is been developing over the last few years. The aging population is a result of people living longer and the fact that there are fewer young people. As the population gets older it will cause a lot of stress for the government and their budget. The reason for the stress is that more health care services are needed for the aging population of people over sixty-five than there will be for people that are under the age of sixty-five. This could and will increase the cost of health care in the future.
There are many ways that demographics can make an impact on the health care market. When an age group becomes an overwhelming population at some time in the future that group will need health care. In the early twentieth century a group of people known as the baby boomers made up a big portion of the population in the United States. Since then one of themain issue that is a concern for them is health care. Health Care Organizations have no way of keeping up with the need they are bound to fail. Health care Organizations must try to gain a profit while it is possible.
One of the main demographic impacts on health care today is the increasing cost of health care. The cost of health care coverage has increased so much that it seems to be out of our control. Medicare and Medicaid qualifications for medical services have become stricter making it harder for people to qualify for services. This puts a bigger stress on health care budget then previously seen.
