from eBay seller gb-best a while ago. Looks about 1890-1920.
What is the pattern? I don't believe I've ever seen it before.
Looks like a big orange moon.
First I decided the block was this nine patch maybe set with a strip alternating balls, squares and triangles.
Set with the same sashing.
Kind of like Clara Stone's Moon & Star but with pieced sashing?
Then I recalled my usual plan of attack, which is to look for the repeat in the corner.
Up in the top left corner right under the white border.
A nine patch with a nine patch in the center, and curves in the corner.
It's related to those Jacob's Ladder designs that were so popular about 1900.
Tried rotating every other block 90 degrees. That's it.
It's not in BlockBase but I'm giving it a number 1798 and I'm calling it Moon Rise.
Should be on the Equal Nine Patch with Curves page.
Here's a free quilt pattern.
A = Cut 2 squares 4-1/2".
B = Cut 4 squares 4-7/8". Cut each in half diagonally to make 2 triangles. You need 8 triangles.
C = Use the templates. Cut 2 each.
D = Use the templates. Cut 2 each.
E = Cut 9 squares 1-7/8".
Print this sheet out 8-1/2" x 11"
OOOHHHHH I do love this!
It's a wonderful pattern called 'Thelma's Choice'. It's in Carrie Hall's collection. Made a scrap version a few years ago and it turned out very well.
Love this! I bet it'd be great scrappy, too.

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - The Israeli government said on Tuesday it had abandoned a plan to forcibly deport African migrants who entered the country illegally after failing to find a willing country to take in the migrants.
The government had been working for months on an arrangement to expel thousands of mostly Eritrean and Sudanese men who crossed into Israel through Egypt’s Sinai desert.
“At this stage, the possibility of carrying out an unwilling deportation to a third country is not on the agenda,” the government wrote in a response to Israel’s Supreme Court, which has been examining the case.
The migrants will again be able to renew residency permits every 60 days, as they were before the deportation push, the government said.
The migrants and rights groups say they are seeking asylum and are fleeing war and persecution. The government says they are job seekers and that it has every right to protect its borders.
Despite Tuesday’s climbdown, the government said immigration authorities would still try to deport migrants voluntarily, drawing criticism from rights group Amnesty International.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu later said that after failing to reach agreement with any country to take them in, he would try to draft legislation that would allow the reopening of detention centers in Israel for the migrants.
The Supreme Court has previously struck down legislation that permits such detention and ordered the facilities shut.
The government’s U-turn was welcomed by those targeted for expulsion.
“I’m thrilled. I’m speechless. I was so scared every day. If I can stay here it will be good, I’ve lived here so long - I have a job, I have Israeli friends. I am used to the place,” said Ristom Haliesilase, a 34-year-old Eritrean who lives in Tel Aviv, working as a carer for the elderly.
The fate of some 37,000 Africans in Israel has posed a moral dilemma for a state founded as a haven for Jews from persecution and a national home.
Around 4,000 migrants have left Israel for Rwanda and Uganda since 2013 under a voluntary program, but Netanyahu has come under pressure from his right-wing voter base to expel thousands more.
After pulling out of a U.N.-backed relocation plan a few weeks ago, Israel shifted efforts toward finalizing an arrangement to send the migrants against their will to Uganda.
A number of migrant rights groups then petitioned the Supreme Court to block any such policy.
Amnesty also welcomed Tuesday’s decision but criticized Israel’s plan to continue with voluntary deportations.
“... in reality there is nothing voluntary about them. Eritrean and Sudanese asylum seekers agree to them under pressure. Israel remains under the obligation not to transfer anyone to a country” where they would be unsafe, said Magdalena Mughrabi, Amnesty deputy director for the Middle East and North Africa.
Amnesty will closely monitor the deportations, it said.

Most precipitation has a pH level Just below 7 (neutral), making it slightly acidic. This is natural precipitation acidity resulting from contact of water with carbon dioxide in the air. "Acid Rain" is the term for precipitation with a pH less than 5.6. Our industrial society has significantly increased the amount of acid forming materials in the atmosphere. In particular, fine sulfur particles from coal-fired power plants, and nitric oxide and nitric dioxide from gasoline engines and power plants are a source for these potentially harmful emissions. Once in the atmosphere they can oxidize to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which becomes incorporated in the atmosphere’s moisture, then eventually returns to Earth’s surface as acid rain or as dry fall-out.
Can Acid Rain Affect Ground Water Quality?
Ground water is replenished almost entirely by rain and snow. Will the ground water become acidic if the precipitation is acidic? Fortunately, most acid rain is neutralized (buffered) by soil and rocks so ground water is protected from the impact of acid rain. However, in cases where the soils and rocks are unable to neutralize all of the acidity of the precipitation, the ground water could become more acidic over time. Where ponds and streams contain decaying vegetation or receive water from wetlands, the water may have a natural acidity related to organic causes.
The type of minerals in the rocks and soil help determine how well acidity in precipitation may be neutralized. Rocks with high amounts of calcium such as limestone and dolomite are very effective in reducing the acidity of water from precipitation that infiltrates underground. In locations with soils containing calcium, the effects of acid rain may be held in check (buffered) allowing the pH of the ground water to remain near neutral or alkaline (>7 pH) values. If acid precipitation is not neutralized through rock chemistry, metals such as copper, lead, iron and manganese may dissolve in the ground water.
Is Acidic Water of Concern?
Ground water that is acidic may have corrosive affects on a home’s water system including the pipes and solder in plumbing fixtures. Reducing acidity (neutralization) can be achieved by water treatment. The most common method of correcting pH is to run water through a cylinder packed with limestone or marble. In addition to reducing pH, it may be necessary to use additional conditioning equipment to remove dissolved metals to prevent staining of fixtures or laundry. The test for pH (water acidity) is easy! Unfortunately, there is not a one-size-fits-all solution. What to do about it will probably require the advice of a water treatment professional.
Where was Acid Rain Discovered?
For more information on acid rain, please go to the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES) website at: www.hubbardbrook.org. The HBES is a long-term ecological research project located at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF), a 3,160 hectare reserve located in the White Mountain National Forest, near North Woodstock, New Hampshire. The USDA Forest Service established the HBEF in 1955 as a major center for hydrologic research in New England. It was the site where the term “acid rain” was first used in 1972 to describe the acidification of the earth’s atmosphere from air pollution and the impact of the condition on the environment.

Vexing our neurons, Moses the Egyptian was born with a mission, he was in the right place at the right time with the right combination of passions for all things Monotheistic but he was in Egypt working for the man, the Egyptian King Akhenaten and "inventor" of the monotheist concept, a following based on the Sun God, Rah. When the dynasty collapsed following the death of Akhenaten, Moses chief priest for the newly fledged theology was a man in limbo  lots of faith and no place to put it, given the Egyptian temperament for as many gods as could be possibly stuffed into one society, Akhenaten's Sun God fell from grace, deemed heretical, Moses was a cleric without a flock, out of work  one God was not enough  cast out of Egypt for apostasy, he was forced into the scrub of the Sinai to ply his art to a nomadic group of goat herders and members of a fractious tribe that craved leadership by anyone that could spin a great yarn. These peoples, the Tribe of Abraham embraced the new pitch, finding the nascent faith simple to understand; God was Bipolar and given to fits of rage with demands of fealty at every turn of the season, a concept the Abrahamians could relate to given the tough love relationship of the Sinai to its people. Moses as it is, made it up as he went along, stacking a doctrine of punitive measures upon his new flock to muster unity and devotion to their new master. The Torah being the purist expression of the labors of Moses, ultimately evolving into Talmudic law, the method for one to reach tribal ascendancy, however, Moses had nothing to do with all the trappings of Jewish doctrine developed by the Rabbinical orders of later Judaism. Moses, the messenger, found the message after a camping trip to Mt. Sinai, starving, he resorted to eating strange berries while breathing smoke from the burning brush of his camp fire  many visions occurred, providing great material for his monotheist notions. Upon return to his flock, having fresh permission to expand his vision with yet more insight into the needs of his charge, he dispensed his revelations to the faith-starved tribe with messianic abandon. Looking into the eye of Yahweh is a tough act to follow. The rest is history, however one cares to interpret the runes.
pensive day, Goats not milked: Charlton Heston is Moses.
Moses feeling the blessing of doubt, seeking guidance on a pensive day, looking for someone to lead, needing someone to follow  goats not yet milked  Not Happy.
A nagging question confronted by contemporary theologians, the cause of much gnashing of teeth: "Did Moses really look like Charlton Heston?"
The Answer: Within the paradigmatic constructs of contemporary existence, within a postmodern, post-high-postmodern, modern, futurist, and liturgical paradigm, Moses and monotheism no longer hold the interest to one who realizes life is nasty nasty nasty and we thank god that it's short so as to limit collateral damage. We pass on our social successes to our future selves self-organized to support the meritocracy.
Moses could not find relief from guilt but "we bearers of arms and iPods" can reconcile all for the sake of willful ignorance and having lots of stuff. The provisional authority over possessions salves us from agape. The Inuit greet by saying, "life is hard," Moses, not Charlton Heston, would agree.
Nagging Questions deserve nagging answers.

They say it isn’t humanly possible to run a marathon in under two hours. The current official record is a very impressive 2:02:57 held by the Kenyan athlete, Denis Kimetto. However, Nike was willing to try and change all of that with its latest campaign: ‘Breaking2’.
Nike got together the best runners in the world and set up a marathon, with the aim being to finish it in under two hours. As far as PR campaigns go, this is one of the best I have seen in a while. It was simple, but had everything the perfect PR campaign needs.
There was a really cool advertising video made to kick things off. The video was followed by a huge social media push with the hashtag ‘#breaking2’ being used. The campaign also gained national coverage and lots of hype prior to the event.
On the day of the event, Nike was sure to keep the branding very high-key. The Nike swoosh was everywhere to be seen; worn by the athletes, on the barriers, on the finish line, on the timers, EVERYWHERE!
And of course the athletes were kitted out in the brand new Nike ZoomX VaporFly Elite running shoes – the whole reason for this campaign.
Unfortunately, the sub-two-hour time wasn’t actually accomplished. The winning time came from Kenyan, Eliud Kipchoge, at 2:00:25 – only 25 seconds away!
The record may not have been broken, but you can’t fault the Nike’s effort with this campaign. Everything was achieved PR wise, and I’m sure the sales of the new shoe will be very high after all of this.
You may have been 25 seconds away from re-writing history, but a fantastic effort anyway, Nike!

It has been a while since I last wrote about branding, about the tripartite relationship between customer, business and staff, and the need for consistency in an ever changing world.
During the time that has passed I have been considering various potential case studies of a business that I believe to demonstrate the essential elements of creating a great brand.
The easy choice would have been Apple, and indeed when I recently bought a new iPhone I was totally engaged with the product before I even got it out of the box because the packaging was so beautiful and perfect, yet not over done.
Instead I have chosen a rather obscure brand that I had contact with this month for the first time in years.
I've done so partly to show that having a great brand doesn't necessarily mean being famous.
Allow me to talk about how Vitsoe have demonstrated amazing brand behaviour.
Vitsoe have just one product. A limited range of shelving designed by the great Dieter Rams all the way back in the 1950s and launched in 1959.
It has become a design classic.
And has hardly changed in appearance since it was first designed.
Although it has been improved in many ways.
Rams recognised our headlong rush into consumerist destruction many decades ago, in a speech he delivered in 1976 he said "I imagine our current situation will cause future generations to shudder at the thoughtlessness in the way in which we today fill our homes, our cities and our landscape with a chaos of assorted junk." And in recognition of that his products are designed to create minimal environmental detriment, in part by being timeless, and never needing replacement.
But we all know that a great product does not guarantee a great brand, and if Vitsoe hasn't changed the product in decades, how can it be up to date?
The answers to the question came when I called them a week or so ago.
I bought my first units from Vitsoe over ten years ago. When I moved from that place they sent someone to reassemble the kit in our new apartment. Even that was eight years back.
I called this month having little recollection of what I had bought or its sizes.
Yet while I was on the phone they emailed a pdf of my original design to me. I'm not even sure pdfs existed that long ago!
An hour later the guy who took my original order all those years back called and talked me through what I needed. He had left the company during that time, but subsequently returned as he claimed no where else matched its ethos and quality.
He told me how I can access a record of all I’ve bought through their site.
He offered to send someone to fit the new units I wanted – even though I'm in Manchester and they're in London. I declined, but instead had a timed delivery to our latest flat.
The delivery included a spirit level that fits perfectly into the units. Even an amazingly sharp pencil for marking the walls.
It all came in packaging that is close to reaching Apple's standard of perfection. But it’s all recycled material, perfectly protecting the product.
For me, Vitsoe demonstrate every characteristic of a fantastic brand, delivering consistently, with fantastic people, using bang up to date technology, but only where appropriate, and leaving me wanting to tell the tale – even though it's only a set of shelves!
It is expensive. Really quite expensive. But having used them once, I wouldn't consider anything else.
Now. Where do I find some more walls?
These pieces have been about rules so far – I reckon next time I need to write about breaking them – it’s fun and it’s the way to progress.
They have great customer service. Brands often make the mistake of projecting a “take it or leave it” attitude that pushes customers away. Wanting to genuinely please customers is a better way of retaining them.
I do agree with you on “Brilliant customer focus”. This works great when you can deliver something good out of customer expectation. That is one of the factor make my business grow.
I am totally agree. If you want, that your business growth increase then have to provide good services and comfort environment to your customer.
Great article Kevin! I agree with you.

Inspired by Jordan Geoghegan’s article about pf-badhost I wanted to create my own list based on the “attack attempts” I get on my personal servers. This was tested on OpenBSD 6.3.
I just put together a small shell script that parses the httpd(8) logs and creates 2 files. One to load into a PF table and another one with entries I’m not sure about and had to be checked manually (either to add them to the patterns to search for or to discard them as legit).
# is not really needed if you just filter on egress, but still.
Just fill the patterns variable with one grep pattern per line.
table <bad_folks> persist file "/etc/pf_tables/bad_folks.txt"
Remember to add the necessary permissions on doas.conf to the user that runs the script.

Patsy is a chorus girl and good. Jill is a country maid and terribly wicked. Jill joins the show, forsakes the swain to whom she swore to be true, runs through a succession of protectors, finally landing a prince and even a wedding-ring. Patsy marries the swain’s friend, is deserted by him after a Como holiday, and, despite some misadventure, ends up with the swain himself.
Mr. Hitchcock, the young English director, is here saddled with a complicated story, and, while its raggedness has in the main overcome him, he has made some of it, so interesting as to make one eager and optimistic for his future. Few things so clever as the opining and the camera story-telling in the early part of this film have been seen in English production, nor can one remember any so happily vivid or convincing characters as those he has made out of Miss Geraghty as Jill and Mr. Mander as the china-bowelled villain. His weakness is that he does not seem quite to visualise the film as a whole clearly enough, and thus he or his scenarist allows the production to lag precariously in places. Detail with which he is familiar is amazingly well done, the very dust of the London rooms seems significant and real, and his sense of human nature contrives to make natural the most melodramatic incidents, notably the finely acted killing of Mr. Mander. But those characters that interested him less are scamped and weak ; the tropics are absurd and show the influence of Wembley.
Two blots in the picture are the tea-stained little North European who poses as a native girl, and her ghost when dead, which is cheaply and commonly made. The titles are fair, the spoken ones quite natural, but the others sometimes sentimentally shocking. Throughout they are depicted on ugly and distracting pieces of scenery known technically — not even the lexicon can say why — as "art" backgrounds.

Free & Family Friendly with local music!
“Every child deserves a fair shot at life.” These should be the words of every parent, but sadly, that’s not the case. On Saturday, June 1, 2013 the 1st Annual Swannanoa Invitational Benefit will take place at Native Kitchen and Social Pub in Swannanoa, NC starting at 2 P.M. The event will benefit Child Abuse Prevention Services, Inc. (CAPS).
Combining awareness, education and fun, the free event will feature activities for the whole family including a single-elimination, 1930’s style croquet tournament, local music and more. The tournament will start play at 4 P.M., culminating with a sunset championship match. The winners will walk away with the Prestigious Golden Mallet. An award will also be given for Best Dressed. Registration for the event begins May 9 online and at Native Kitchen and Social Pub.
“In recent years, funding for CAPS has been cut dramatically, over 20%,” said McGuire, “While a variety of funds from the United Way, private foundations, public donations and grants provide funding for our programs, it’s vitally important that we continue to bring in funds during this time.” In an effort to aid the non-profit, a portion of the proceeds from registration fees and beverages, provided by Pisgah Brewing Company, will go directly to CAPS.
Also appearing at the event will be Smart Start of Buncombe County. The local non-profit will be on-site creating activities for younger children and talking with adults about the importance of sending their early-aged children to school healthy and ready to succeed. Other local non-profits will also take part in the event.
Originally founded in 1990 by local pediatrician Andrea Gravatt, CAPS started with child abuse medical evaluations,which are now done at Mission Children’s Center. Quickly growing with support of the community, CAPS serves as the cornerstone in awareness and prevention of child abuse in the area. Prevention/Personal Safety Education which started on a limited basis is now provided to all Asheville and Buncombe County schools K thru 5, using the “Talking About Touching” curriculum, an interactive program that empowers children with the abilities to be more open about uneasy situations and avoid or get out of abusive situations. As CAPS evolves, it now offers the following training for adults; ”Recognizing and Responding to Abuse,” ”Stewards of Children,” child sexual abuse prevention training, and Parenting Ed (“Becoming A Love and Logic Parent”). The organization also offers Crisis Intervention/Counseling for children and families who have experienced abuse.
Native was started by two NC couples who recognized the need for sustainable food practices, and a responsibility that we all share when it comes to our soil, water and air. Native strongly believes in supporting farming techniques, which are sustainable, organic and regenerative. These local farms restore the fabric of rural communities, decrease water and air pollution, preserve and build topsoil and produce wonderful crops. The foods they deliver to our tables are high in nutritive value and are without chemical residue. Their support to these dedicated farmers yields healthier ingredients that strengthens our sense of local community, builds our local economy and, most importantly, it is a vital step toward protecting these resources for future generations. It’s important to Native that they not only provide local food, but that they strive to support our local breweries, artists, musicians and community.

Marley Coffee Comes to 1stinCoffee.com Mon!
Extremely reflective, Bob Marley constantly looked at the world and at himself with the desire to make a difference. It came through in his music, which in so many ways is a poetic call to every individual to shape themselves and the world they’ve inherited into something better. His lyrics worked to instill a sense of pride and strength in the face of injustice and adversity.
An international success and cross-cultural inspiration, Marley began his life humbly in the rural areas of Jamaica. It was his hope to eventually return to his roots and work the land. Marley’s son, Rohan, has worked to combine his father’s philosophy and love for farming by co-founding Marley’s Coffee with his friend Shane Whittle.
Marley’s Coffee is an organic coffee company that strives to support local communities and the environment by adhering to environmentally sustainable and socially ethical practices. It has been said that “…intellectual activity has to be informed by the arts of the imagination…” It is by working to help the people: the farmers and children of the local communities, that Rohan and Whittle have honored Bob Marley’s fierce desire to better the world. By working solely with like-minded free-trade farmers in Indonesia, Ethiopia, Jamaica and Central America, Marley’s Coffee remains at the forefront of sustainable development.
They have emulated not only Marley’s humanitarian beliefs, but his sense of pride as well. Each blend of coffee (named after Bob Marley songs) is completely organic and offers delightful, rich bouquets that rank up with some of the finest coffees in the world.
“Lively Up”, named after Marley’s inspirational song, Rastaman, Lively Up, is a 5-bean espresso blend that works in perfect harmony with premier Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. Full-bodied and well-balanced, the coffee has a long and savory finish with hints of candied fruit, sweet caramel and cocoa. “Lively Up” can be prepared using either drip, press or espresso methods.
“One Love”, a tilt-of-the-hat to one of Marley’s most widely acclaimed songs, is a well-rounded, brightly acidic coffee made of 100% Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. “One Love” is one of Marley’s Coffee’s most popular blends, defined by floral notes and hints of blueberry, cocoa and spices. This cup will finish off with a profound cherry finish.
“Mystic Morning” is a blend of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and the finest grade 1 coffee beans from Central America. A medium-bodied blend, “Mystic Morning” is known for its vibrant spice flavors and undertones of cocoa and cinnamon.
“Buffalo Soldier” is a blend of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and the finest beans from Central America and Indonesia. Sweetly roasted with delicious smoked earth notes, this sultry coffee blend has dark chocolate and berry undertones with a smooth and lingering finish.
Coffee ITAL seal and is recognized the world-over by coffee connoisseurs as one of the best coffees on the market.
Marley’s coffee also offers a delicious decaf blend called “Simmer Down.” This distinctive coffee is made with a unique process called the “Swiss Water” technique. Pure water from the mountains of British Columbia to gently removes the caffeine. It is in this way that the beans maintain their delicate flavors and smooth characteristics. “Simmer Down” is roasted dark and full-bodied with mild acidity and subtle aromas of nutmeg, spices and cocoa. Marley’s Coffee also offers a decaffeinated blend called “Mountain Roast Decaf” which is also made using the Swish Water technique.

The eyes of the world will be turned toward Russia in the coming weeks as the XXII Winter Olympics begin in Sochi. While the attention has not always been flattering, and there are continued worries about potential terrorist attacks, many in Russia hope that the Olympics will showcase their country’s prosperity. But when it comes to global public opinion toward Russia, much of the world has unfavorable or mixed views, according to our spring 2013 Global Attitudes survey.
People in only nine of 38 countries surveyed say they have a positive view of Russia — and among those, in only two of them do half or more of the population have a favorable opinion. Coincidentally, the most positive views of Russia hail from the birthplace of both the ancient and modern Olympic games, Greece (63% favorable). Russia also gets moderately positive views from close neighbors South Korea (53%) and China (49%).
In 12 of the 38 countries, views of Russia are mixed. In Canada, one of the strongest perennial contenders for Winter Olympic gold and the most recent host of the games, 42% have a favorable view of Russia and 39% have an unfavorable opinion. In the U.S., another strong medal competitor, only 37% see Russia in a favorable light while 43% express a negative opinion.
In the remaining 17 countries, opinions toward Russia are decidedly negative, especially in Europe and the Middle East. In Europe, negative views are shared by 64% of the French, 60% of Germans, 56% of Italians, 54% of Poles, and 51% among Czechs and the Spanish. Among Middle Eastern publics, opinions are even worse, with seven-in-ten or more in Israel (77%) and Jordan (70%) holding a negative opinion of Russia.
In addition, 64% in Japan have an unfavorable view of Russia, which might not be surprising considering the continuing dispute over the Kuril Islands and the fact that the two nations never formally ended World War II.
Overall, a median of 36% across 38 countries see Russia in a favorable light, while 39% see Russia negatively. However, there is a bright spot for Russia’s global image: young people. In many of the countries surveyed, young people ages 18-29 are often more likely to express positive views of Russia than people 50 and older.

Storms could become severe, primarily in Wisconsin.
Today marks the beginning of a mini heat wave, which is a generous description of what the next handful of days will be like across Minnesota as temps soar into the mid-to-upper-80s, with some spots reaching the low-90s.
In the Twin Cities, the high Wednesday should be around 88 degrees with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms, albeit a slim chance, so don't plan your day as if it's going to storm.
In the event that it does though, the storms have the potential to reach low-end severe levels with very heavy rain, frequent lightning, small hail and strong winds.
The Storm Prediction Center has placed parts of northeast and east-central Minnesota as having a marginal risk for severe weather. But again, as future radar simulation shows, those storms will most likely be in Wisconsin.
Here's the simulated future radar showing what could happen from 3 p.m. through midnight.
Further west the temps will reach the low-90s, with 92 the forecast high in Marshall, 91 in Moorhead and 93 in Madison, Minnesota.
It'll be 88 in St. Cloud, 90 in Mankato and 86 in Rochester.
The above normal temperatures are expected to stick around through the upcoming weekend.
Storms are expected to develop in eastern Minnesota and move into Wisconsin.
The storms will be spotty and will not be severe.
Heavy rain overnight into Friday and then bigger storms possible Saturday.
It'll feel like 95-100 degrees before big storms erupt.
Most of Minnesota will get some rain, but some hail is possible along I-90.
Another round of storms could develop Friday afternoon and evening.
Storms likely to develop in the afternoon and evening hours.
Wednesday will be the hottest, with heat index values rising into triple digits.

On both sides of the Atlantic, agricultural policies, and more specifically the mechanisms of agricultural market regulation, are under fire from both budgetary and ideological threats. Marked by a major economic and financial crisis, the European Union and the United States are forced to cut their spending, which could lead to cuts in their agricultural policy budgets. The proposed reform of the Farm Bill put forward by the Senate in June provides for a reduction of its budget by $23 billion compared to the previous five years, while some Member States of the EU are campaigning for a reduction in funds allocated to the CAP. But the biggest constraint on U.S. and European agricultural policies remains no doubt ideological, because there are many who still argue that the market is the best regulator of the agricultural economy and, therefore, regulatory mechanisms are at best unnecessarily costly at worst distorting. However, the reality of agricultural markets continues to remind us that this is far from the case. In an article recently published on the website of the Agricultural Policy Analysis Center (APAC), Daryll E. Ray and Harwood D. Schaffer insist on this point by reminding us that because of the characteristics of agricultural production, agricultural supply does not adjust instantaneously to changes in demand. We recommend reading this article2 which demonstrates that on one hand agricultural markets are inherently volatile and on the other that overall agricultural supply has tended to grow faster than demand in recent decades, resulting in repeated market reversals, accompanied by a decline in farm incomes at unsustainable levels. It is also important to note that this inherent volatility of agricultural markets has been exacerbated in recent years by the financialization of agricultural markets, which have become complex markets of anticipation. Therefore, tools for regulating both physical and financial agricultural markets are more necessary than ever.
In the absence of two critical issues, Farm Bill commodity programs would make little sense. Issue one: crop production can change considerably from year to year due to weather and disease and issue two: over the long-haul supply increases faster than demand.
Governments as far back as second millennium BC Egypt and late first millennium B.C.-early first millennium AD China have recognized that crop failures can have a negative impact on their citizens in terms of food availability and prices and disruption to the economy. China also recognized that times of excess production could result in low price problems for its farmers.
With the opening up of the Western Hemisphere to European markets, the problem of supply increasing at a faster rate than demand began to rear its head in the U.S. and elsewhere in the New World. At first, the rate of increase of new agricultural land being brought into production was the cause of this rate differential. By the twentieth century, investment in agricultural research, education, and extension—much of it by governments—became significant factors allowing supply to increase faster than demand and leaving farmers to face long periods of low prices.
The recent drought has reminded us that issue one is still in play. But what about issue two? Over the long-run will supply out-pace demand in the years ahead, as it has typically done for centuries? In recent columns, we have described developments that suggest that despite this year’s massive drought in the US and maybe as a consequence of the resulting high prices, crop agriculture may once again face long periods of low prices. But some other analysts see the future differently.
On the demand side, Tweeten in acknowledging a slowing down in the rate of population, sees a 2012 trend rate in the growth of total food demand of 1.3% /yr., 0.8%/yr. lower than it was in 1962 and higher than the 1%/yr. increase in world crop and livestock productivity.
If Tweeten’s analysis is correct, commodity programs designed to soften the price and income blows caused by supply generally out-stripping demand, would no longer be needed—the yield variability issue would remain, of course.
We look at the same data as Tweeten and, given the price and political incentives to increase agricultural production—both in terms of area under cultivation and investments to increase yields worldwide, we think it is likely that the relative rates of growth in supply and demand will be much as they have been in past.
That is, rather than seeing a reversal, the odds are still in favor of supply growing faster than demand as farmers and governments fully adjust productive capacity.
Then the question is: would the resulting low prices cause the quantity demanded and supplied to recalibrate in a way that would rapidly adjust agriculture to reasonable profitable prices and revenues. Over the last many decades, it has been lack of rapid adjustment to low prices caused by supply shifting faster than demand that has been the overriding reason for commodity programs.

In years when winter conditions are especially harsh in America, birds that depend on conifer seeds for food are sometimes forced to leave their homes in northern forests and wander far from their normal ranges to find enough to eat. A new study published in The Auk: Ornithological Advances uses citizen science data to show for the first time that these winter movements–called “irruptions”–lead to a decline in birds’ population density in their breeding range the following summer, suggesting that irrupting birds succumb to the difficulties of avoiding predators and finding food in unfamiliar landscapes.

Separate the administration of ferrous sulfate at least two hours apart from calcium carbonate. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special test to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

I launched the Positioning-Roulette flashcards almost three years ago. The printed version is now in its second edition and by US (business books) sales standards they would be considered a bestseller. Since 2017 they’ve also been available on Amazon which has increased their reach. And in 2018 they will be included on the “must-read marketing material” list of a reputable university here in the US (more coming soon).
I know that the Positioning-Roulette workshops I facilitate are always well received and seen as extremely insightful and useful. But workshop are also easier for me to control since I facilitate them.
With the flashcards, the user is on his/her own leading to questions like “will people use them the way it was intended”, “are the flashcards self-explanatory”, “will they provide the high quality output I intended, independently of the seniority of the user”, and so forth.
“I use these cards with our Junior Strategists to stretch their thinking. I’ve liked that they are a physical exercise that we can do together, but what I find myself wishing is for an accompanying digital experience that gathers case studies to illustrate each. I have my own examples, but it would be nice for them to use the cards as a self-guided learning tool”.
If you live in the US, the cards can be ordered via Amazon and shipped within 2 days (Amazon Prime). If you live outside the US, you can order the cards here.
If you have used the flashcards and want to share your experience or if you have questions about the cards and how to use them, do not hesitate to reach out.

Hi. I'm Dr. Cheryl Broussard, Epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Thanks for watching this CDC Expert Video Commentary on Medscape that is focused on medication use and its effects during pregnancy.
About two thirds of women in the United States take one or more prescription medications during pregnancy; however, few data are available on the safety of most medications when used during pregnancy. We know that certain medications -- such as thalidomide or isotretinoin (Accutane®) -- cause serious birth defects when used during pregnancy and should be avoided by women who are or might become pregnant unless effective contraceptive measures are used. Unfortunately, most medications have not been adequately studied in pregnancy. One study showed that more than 90% of medications approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from 1980 to 2000 had insufficient data to determine the risk in human pregnancy.
Despite this lack of knowledge, pregnant women often need to take medications to treat conditions like asthma, epilepsy, depression, and others. Without treatment, the woman or her baby could be harmed. Albuterol is one of the most commonly used medications in pregnancy, but it is also one of those with an undetermined risk in pregnancy based on limited available data. In contrast, valproate, which is used to treat epilepsy and, more recently, migraines and other conditions, has been shown to increase the risk for birth defects and other adverse outcomes. Recent clinical guidelines recommend that women taking valproate and planning to become pregnant talk with their physicians about possibly changing to another medication to avoid these risks.
A large proportion of pregnant women also use over-the-counter medications or herbal and dietary products, including weight loss products. In contrast to prescription medications, these products are typically used without oversight from a healthcare provider and are not regulated in the same way by the FDA. Safety concerns for use during pregnancy have emerged. Patients taking prescription medications also frequently take nonprescription or herbal products at the same time, which may have clinically serious interactions.
Healthcare providers, therefore, play a critical role in ensuring that pregnant women receive appropriate treatment while minimizing risk to the embryo or fetus. Here are some specific things that healthcare providers can do.
First, screen women of reproductive age for use of prescription and over-the-counter medications and herbal and dietary products. Women should be advised to limit their use to medications that are essential. When prescribing and considering potential adverse effects of any medication, remember to include reproductive effects --- the potential teratogenic effects of medications and the dose needed for effective treatment are especially important to consider for women who are pregnant or who are planning to become pregnant. Additionally, because an estimated 50% of US pregnancies are unplanned, it is important to discuss the potential pregnancy risks associated with medication use with all women of reproductive age who require treatment with medications (including over-the-counter medications). Healthcare providers should stress with these patients the particular importance of pregnancy planning to effectively balance both maternal and fetal health concerns.
Second, know where to find up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of medication use during pregnancy. The product label, which is used in the Physicians' Desk Reference, is not routinely updated after a drug is marketed and may not contain the most recent information. Online subscription services such as TERIS (the Teratogen Information System) and REPROTOX® are available for a fee. You can also call the Organization of Teratology Information Specialists at 866-626-6847 to talk with a specialist about the effects of certain medications in pregnancy.
Third, encourage pregnant women in your practice who are taking medications to enroll in studies of the effects of medication use. Because pregnant women are not included in clinical trials before drugs are marketed, post-marketing studies are critical to further evaluate their risks and safety during pregnancy. The FDA maintains a list of pregnancy registries that are actively enrolling participants. A link to this list is available from the CDC Website on medications and pregnancy.

I was recently working on a project for a client we are providing some services for and I was focused on communicating just how important it is to get quality leads into your sales system.
While it is important to drive conversions (purchases) for your products on the website, it is equally as important to capture as much information as possible about potential future customers. Lead nurturing is a valuable process for any sales cycle.
It’s an interesting concept to think that there is still a manual requirement to sales. In the late 90’s and early 2000’s the focus in our industry was to drive conversions, but now that consumers (whether it’s business to business or business to consumer) have so many options and the ability to research your company so quickly a traditional sales system is so much more critical.
Let’s look at a use case, because I appreciate data and real-life examples. Let’s stay away from the fluff.
Betty, a 35-year-old single mother is looking for a new stroller for her 6-month-old baby. She posts on Facebook asking for recommendations from her friends, and she comes out of it with 2 stroller makers that appear to be ideal. She visits both of the stroller websites (maybe even clicked on an Advertisement as she was retargeted through searching) and one of the sites has a lead gen form that says “have a question about our strollers? ask us now!”. She fills out the form asking if the stroller is suitable for running with and how long the manufacturer’s warranty is. The other website has no lead gen form and wants the person to call if they have questions. Betty is responded to within 12 hours with the answers to her questions AND sent an incredible video showing a mother running with the stroller along the sea wall in Vancouver (her home town). AND, to sweeten the deal, even more, they give her a coupon code for free delivery if she purchases today.
Now, I’m not saying that standard digital advertising could not have persuaded Betty to buy that stroller, but the human connection and customer service in this case obviously won.
Mark Griffin wrote a brilliant piece on LInkedIN titled “Why Human Connection Matters in business – 7 reasons I’m excited about” which is a great read on just how important Human Connection is. Google it if you are interested in reading further.
So much of our efforts are focused on traditional-digital advertising to drive conversions and leads, and in most cases, it works. But if your sales cycle involves things people are incredibly passionate about you need to find a way to create a human connection between you and your prospective customers. It’s not a theory, it’s been proven since the concept of sales was created.
Customers and potential customers you speak with now on digital platforms can lead to sales and referrals down the road. Every interaction matters and the psychology of sales will not change, it will just get more difficult to navigate as consumers become enlightened and empowered to obtain knowledge easily.

I visited the American Medical Association’s headquarters in Chicago last week. And the whole thing, the entire mojo of that visit turned out to be quite inspiring.
See, there’s something about Chicago. Big, glamorous, tough, always changing. It’s a city of neighborhoods, great restaurants, lousy baseball teams, thuggish football teams…okay, your mileage may vary on that one.
But Chicago is also home to transformative, world-class architecture – architecture that changed the world.
Knowing that the AMA headquarters, AMA Plaza, is in what I still quaintly call the IBM Building, a major architectural landmark in a city full of them, I was fired up. I’m all about deep history, subterranean networks, roots and hidden connections.
1) I’m an old Chicagoan. More than fifty years in and around the big city. And yet I had never been in that famous building.
2) I’m a computer technology type. Decades in and around that industry.
3) My 2013 novel, Pepperland, features a number of psychically radioactive Chicago buildings and locales. AMA’s building—the IBM Building—is one of them. This is another story, of course.
Here’s the thing. AMA’s building is a structure that has transformation and revolution built into its steel and glass. It’s a building that is fundamentally about changing the world. Mies van der Rohe, giant of 20th century architecture, designed that building.
Settling in Chicago in 1938 after fleeing Nazi Germany, Mies at last found the materials he needed to truly remake his architecture. And with the plentiful steel and glass of mid-century America, he changed the landscape, changed the world.
Built in 1973 as regional headquarters for IBM, the building at 330 North Wabash was an exemplar of modern technology. IBM, at that time, was at the pinnacle of American industry, completely dominating what was then the new, revolutionary computer world—think the Apple of its day. IBM changed the world.
Fast forward to now. Health care in the 21st century.
So here we are in the early 21st century, once more presented with the opportunity to make far-reaching changes in a huge industry that is fundamental to our future, one that is in great need of repair.
FHG’s mission – change the world. Fix health care.
The mojo of that building in Chicago continues.

We were told we would be doing rightous to the world and the company. Honestly, we needed money, and the job came with more than fair pay to make up for the life-threating job. It honestly didn't matter...until they opened our eyes. Cloud Strife & Zack Fair. They created, made, joined AVALANCHE. We fought them because we were paied to, but they opened our eyes. To all the suffering, to all the pain, and to all the sadness ShinRa was causing. We were protecting the man who caused all this, yet we kept quiet. We acted like the puppets we were, we sat back and did as we were told. We were demons, protecting the Devil from God & his angels. Good Little Turks.
Any more emo? JK! It was nice.

On the cusp of her first London season, Miss Madeline Gracechurch was shyly pretty and talented with a drawing pencil, but hopelessly awkward with gentlemen. She was certain to be a dismal failure on the London marriage mart. So Maddie did what generations of shy, awkward young ladies have done: she invented a sweetheart.
A Scottish sweetheart. One who was handsome and honorable and devoted to her, but conveniently never around. Maddie poured her heart into writing the imaginary Captain MacKenzie letter after letter … and by pretending to be devastated when he was (not really) killed in battle, she managed to avoid the pressures of London society entirely.
Until years later, when this kilted Highland lover of her imaginings shows up in the flesh. The real Captain Logan MacKenzie arrives on her doorstep—handsome as anything, but not entirely honorable. He’s wounded, jaded, in possession of her letters… and ready to make good on every promise Maddie never expected to keep.
The ladies loved October’s HR selection, When a Scot Ties the Knot. The ladies agreed that they enjoyed watching Madeline and Captain MacKenzie getting to know each other, especially since they were fighting the whole way. They would all love to see the guys have their own story. They ladies loved all the characters and look forward to reading more of the series.
We rated When a Scot Ties the Knot 4 stars.
