3. Is This a Test?
It's easy to turn on the radio and find a good song, maybe an artist that knows how to capture an audience's attention, but the best music is the kind that comes straight from the heart, from a desire to play and a passion for music itself. Pete Muller is one of those inspired musicians that can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that music is a passion, not simply a job. A talented pianist and vocalist sharing his love for music and his exceptional arrangements with audiences for the past several years from subway stations to coffee shops, well-known venues to gatherings at his home in New York City, Muller has had plenty of time to find his place in the music world, and released his debut CD, Just One Lifetime, in 2001. Now the successful singer/keyboardist is ready to release a new album, More Than This, and joined by a powerhouse of talented musicians and friends, will offer his music to a worldwide audience with open arms and open ears.
Still Looking for My Home opens the album, setting a tone for the record, cool, but not subdued, featuring a host of beautiful piano figures laid under vocals reminiscent of Cat Stevens and a laid-back drum beat and light strings. I Don't Know What to Do, livens up the mood of More Than This, kicking the tempo up with a bright feel and a playful approach. Like a number of tracks on the album, I Don't Know shows Muller's greatest strengths in writing and singing, while his more melancholy pieces boast his talents for piano lines. A standard throughout the album, however, is Muller's emphasis on improvisation. "Improvisation is a very important part of my music," Muller says. "I never play a song the same way twice."
Pete Muller woke up more than 6 years ago and realized that he could no longer find happiness in the corporate world. While he felt accomplished and satisfied, he couldn't find a new challenge, a goal to aspire to, and turned his attention wholly to his music. Originally playing smaller venues, like coffee houses and New York clubs, Muller now spends much of his time traveling to various places around the world, composing and playing for new audiences, with all of his proceeds going to charity. With More Than This, Muller has expanded every aspect of his music, recording with drummer Ben Hoyumpa and bassist Skip Ward and working with renowned producer Ted Cruz and Grammy-winning mix engineer Danny Kopelson. Now, with his musical horizons growing, Muller is free to focus on what really makes him happy, and the feeling has had residual effects, rubbing off on almost everyone he plays for.
With songs like the cool 'Til It's Time to Leave and the jazz-influenced In This World, More Than This is a great blend of songs, while the hypnotic subtlety of Ann Marie Milazzo's backing vocals and guest appearance of violinist and groovelily founder Val Vigoda on Underneath the Ground and the cover of the Talking Heads' Naïve Melody perfectly compliment Muller's skills at the keyboard. The mysterious undertones of Almost merge perfectly with a flip at the chorus to an up-tempo backbeat, and The Ghost or the Fear serves as a memorable counterexample to his more carefree songs. The album even contains a few hidden tracks that give more to listeners than the standard musical experience. For a first-time listener of Pete Muller's music, a fan of all genres, or just a music lover looking to find a great new album for the top of their collection, More Than This is the right album for anyone.
Pete is joined by a multitude of talented players who provide guitars, percussion, strings, keys and horns to Muller's twelve song plus bonus track collection. Pete writes mature, insightful lyrics that are sung from the heart. Muller draws from a range of genres including jazz, improvisational, pop and rock. More Than This is his second release, utilizing a variety of tempos and styles with a strong focus on the piano. 'Still Looking for My Home' is the opening track. It has a subtle drum beat with a touch of strings, combined with rich, reflective piano and vocal expressions especially at the title/hook line. It is followed by 'I Don't Know What to Do', an up-tempo number featuring harmonizing vocals, colorful imagery and light but lush instrumentation. 'Underneath the Ground' is dark storytelling with salient strings and deep textures and tones. Peter Muller blends passion and diversity into his music and More Than This captures that sprit and more!
Beautiful lyrics, great music and terriffic verses.
Beautiful, great music and sound. Pete has a very, Harry Chapan like voice, and that story telling believabilty.

It looks like Bitcoin may see yet another regulatory turn of events in the US. More specifically, three members of Congress are working on legislation to protect certain currencies from government interference. That is a rather strange turn of events, to say the least. There should be no difference as to which coins are protected or not. However, The Daily Caller claims that is exactly the case.It will be interesting to see how this situation plays out in the future.
Washington officials have mostly ignored cryptocurrency up until this point. Most people on the Hill feel this is all just a fad and will go away eventually However, things are not going as the officials would like. Instead, the price of Bitcoin continues to set new all-time highs. There is also Ethereum to contend with. Plus, the newly created Bitcoin Cash currency is surging in value as well. It was only a matter of time until Washing started paying attention. However, this attention is not necessarily negative.
According to Daily Caller, three Congress officials want to prevent government interference in digital currencies. More specifically, they want to protect: “select” currencies, without specifying which ones. Apparently, these members are looking at the compliant capabilities of AML Bitcoin. This would be a new digital currency, by the look of things, and not Bitcoin itself. . Moreover Bitcoin itself is not of interest to Washington right now. It is still too controversial to touch upon and creating a new currency seems to be the next logical step in this process.
Providing protection to currencies meeting certain minimum conditions sounds quite appealing. It can also bring cryptocurrency into the mainstream through some positive attention. How this will be achieved remains anybody’s guess for the time being. It appears the three officials want to ensure digital currencies are treated like the American Dollar To do so, this new currency needs to be issued which is compliant with AML laws. It seems like a clever ploy to create a centralized digital currency, to say the least. This will not do Bitcoin, BCH, or team any favors, though.
Up until this point, there is no evidence of people in the US using Bitcoin to launder money. It is certainly true darknet criminals prefer Bitcoin over other currencies. A strange decision, as Bitcoin is anything but anonymous. The Congress officials should know this as well, by now. Yet for some reason, they still want to create a controllable version of the world’s leading cryptocurrency. A very unusual decision, but one that isn’t entirely unexpected. A compliant currency backed by actual value can be protected against taxation. However, there is no reason for cryptocurrency enthusiasts to use AML Bitcoin by any means.

iPad casino hold’em holds all the cards to poker enjoyment.
Poker is a card-based game where players bet on their own card combinations and then compare them with others to see who wins. This effectively means that there is no house edge as, regardless of the competitors, it is the player and his cards that have the control and govern whether to bet high, low or not at all. This makes winning a lot more exciting as it is up to the player to determine what is and is not worth wagering on. The cards in this game rank similar to most other card games, with two being the lowest valued card and Ace the highest. Players, regardless of the form of the game played, must then form combinations of the cards in order to trump the opponents. Two factors amplify poker popularity; online casino sites have all migrated to mobile, and the most popular form of poker, Texas Hold’em, is particularly suited to the mobile format. This is why, of course, the ultimate gaming device and the ultimate gambling game are so well suited; iPad casino hold’em therefore sets the bar.
The classic virtual gambling is now available online, and at Canadian mobile casinos. Enjoyed online in high quality casino sites and poker rooms, there are few card, or any other games that are more popular than poker. Now, with Apple joining the party, most iPad and iPhone poker sites will offer all the varieties of this game, and a huge range of game play options. The essence of this game is easy to understand, and there is major love for this game throughout the world. Players find it particularly appealing and Apple-friendly poker sites are available in all styles and with an abundance of bonus filled winning opportunities.
The card combinations in poker are straightforward once players have experienced the game for a while but all the same the list of combos, in ascending order of value are; one pair, that is two cards of the same value. Two pair, a double pair of cards. This is followed by a three of a kind, three of the same valued card. The next in the list is a straight which is five cards in chronological order. Then follows a flush; five cards of the same suit. Next is the full house, which is a three of a kind and a pair. Then, four of a kind and finally the variety of straight flushes, which is five chronologically, ordered cards of the same suit. The ultimate hand in Poker is the Royal flush, which is a straight flush with the five highest cards in the game, Ace, King, Queen, Jack and ten.
Known for its bluffing element, iPad casino hold’em is often regarded as one of the more technical and impressive of the classic card games and thanks to the internet and the great online, iPad casino hold’em can be enjoyed and played by everyone, winning and enjoying the very best it has to offer. Players are paradoxically warned of the addictive properties of this game, the lifelong fascination it generates and the fact that many countries have a vibrant, rewarding and highly popular iPad casino hold’em league.
Ultimately, poker is a game of skill, strategy, a smattering of luck, the ability to read opponents, and an understanding of cards and their odds, plus a huge element of courage. With iPad casino hold’em available to all in the Apple family, expect iOS poker gameplay online and on mobile to keep up its high growth trajectory for a while yet.

The actual ZBook 15u G2 is portion of HP's lineup associated with ZBook mobile work stations, but it is also a good ultrabook, meeting the actual technical specifications for your category, as well as putting a concentrate on portability instead of raw processing as well as graphics power. Calculating 0.84 through 14.78 through 9.98 ins (HWD) and weighing 4.23 lbs, the slim laptop computer is among the the majority of portable systems around that may still be known as workstation, and it is drastically thinner compared to last year's 1.2-inch-thick HP Zbook 15. Aside from the ZBook title and the 15-inch shows, the two could not be less as well, as the thin design is possible just with significantly different inner components (which we'll talk about in more fine detail below).
The actual 15.6-inch screen has a full HIGH DEFINITION (1,920-by-1,080) quality, a matte complete to reduce eyeball, and no contact functionality. The screen itself is disappointing-the watching angles aren't very broad, so there's a few color-shifting when seen off-center. Slightly below the display is really a speaker bar along with integrated stereo audio speakers. The speakers offer pretty good high quality, having a little help through DTS Studio Sound software program.
The actual ZBook 15u G2 comes with a 2.6GHz Intel Primary i7-5600U processor, a good ultrabook CPU made to offer Core-i7 performance with much better power and heat effectiveness than a standard Core-i7 chip. Integrating this processor along with 16GB of MEMORY, the workstation created strong results in our own performance tests. Within 8 Work Traditional, the actual ZBook 15u G2 obtained 3,124 factors, putting it in front of the Lenovo ThinkPad W540 (3,105 points), the actual Dell M3800 (2015) (2,664 points), and also the Lenovo ThinkPad W550s (2,736 points). Additionally, it delivered solid overall performance within Photoshop CS6, finishing the test in 4 minutes 43 secs, faster than both HP ZBook 14 (6:28) and also the Lenovo W550s (3:44), however falling behind other people, particularly final year's HP ZBook 15 (3: 10), the mobile workstation which have the decreased capabilities imposed through the ultrabook form element.
Battery-life is an important element to ease of mobility, which you want from your ultrabook, however the performance demands of the workstation make providing the all-day battery-life you might notice on other systems quite a tall order for your HP ZBook 15u G2. Almost all told, the laptop computer offers pretty good battery-life, lasting 6 hours 13 minutes within our battery rundown examination. That puts this in front of the Dell M3800 (2015) (4:53) and also the heftier HP ZBook 15 (3:48), however well behind the actual Lenovo W550s (17:21), that packs in two times as much electric battery. If anything at all, the actual ZBook 15u G2 rests pretty neatly alongside the actual HP ZBook 14 (6:28) and also the Lenovo W540 (6:13), along with enough battery life to transport you through the majority of a full day.

Jenny is a 70 year old woman diagnosed with stage three ovarian cancer in 2018. She is a retired business owner with almost no assets and lives off of $1,217 a month in Social Security retirement benefits. She selected her Medicare Advantage Plan when she turned 65, was healthy and had business income. The plan carries an annual maximum out of pocket cost of $5,900 – which while affordable at the time she enrolled in her plan, is now nearly half her annual income.
Typically a patient undergoing treatment for late stage ovarian cancer will hit her maximum out of pocket. In Jenny’s case, though, she was hit with a double whammy. Since she was diagnosed late in the year, she hit her maximum out of pocket in 2018 with testing and surgery. On January 1 her maximum out of pocket reset, and in 2019 with chemotherapy treatments she will hit her maximum out of pocket of $5,900 again. And that’s not including expensive prescription drugs that are part of her treatment plan.
Since she is a low income Medicare recipient, we were able to enroll Jenny in a Medicare Savings Program called Specified Low Income Medicare Beneficiary. This program will pay her Medicare Part B premiums of $135.50 a month, saving her $1,626 in 2019. We were also able to enroll her in the Medicare Extra Help program, which will help her pay the costs related to her Medicare Part D prescription drug program. Given Jenny’s planned course of treatment including very expensive oral medications for multiyear maintenance, the Extra Help program will save Jenny over $11,000 a year. Additionally, we were able to locate an open foundation co-pay assistance fund for ovarian cancer patients for which Jenny was eligible. We enrolled her in the fund, which will cover up to $3,500 a year for her chemotherapy and related costs, and will count toward her health plan’s maximum out of pocket of $5,900. Prior to our work with her, Jenny had never heard of any of these programs and had no idea she was eligible for them.
The last piece in our strategy to make Jenny’s health care affordable for her is to help her switch to a Medicare Advantage Plan with a much lower annual maximum out of pocket cost. Although it is not time for open enrollment, her enrollment in the Extra Help program triggers a special enrollment period, allowing her to switch plans now. We will refer her to a Medicare broker to determine which is the best plan for her, but she is eligible for several plans with max out of pocket costs of $3,000 - $4,500, saving her an additional $1,400 - $2,900 in 2019.
When we met Jenny, she was looking at medical costs (including Part B premiums, prescription drug costs and her maximum out of pocket which she will hit) in 2019 of over $18,000. That’s 125% of her entire annual income just for the cost of treating her cancer. As a retiree scraping by on Social Security retirement as her only income, she absolutely would not have been able to afford her cancer treatment. Our work with her (so far) will save her over $16,000, bringing lifesaving medical care within her financial reach.

In the summer 2016, Jackson Morris graduated from the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa with a BS in Aerospace Engineering. He stayed at UA Tuscaloosa to pursue a master's degree. Jackson won the VFF scholarship twice: once as an undergraduate, and more recently as a masters' student. His interest in aviation and vertical flight originally stemmed from his grandfather, who served in the Navy on aircraft carriers during WWII. Ever since he was very little, he has been keenly interested in anything related to aviation. He first expressed interest in becoming a commercial pilot, then an air-traffic controller. He decided eventually that he wished to design aircraft himself, and began studying to become an aerospace engineer. He has worked for Boeing during the past two summers. During summer 2014, he was a Quality Specialist Intern at the Boeing Dreamliner assembly facility in North Charleston, SC. During summer 2015, he worked as a Manufacturing & Process Engineer Intern in Everett, WA, on Boeing’s Fuselage Automated Upright Build project. He found his experiences in the industry incredible; it proved to himself that he was in the right field, as every day he spent working with aircraft was a joy.
At Tuscaloosa, he participated in undergraduate research concerning the aeroelasticity of dynamic beam structures. He was a member of UA’s Design/Build/Fly project, which they entered in the national design competition in 2016. He is a proud member of Sigma Gamma Tau. Through SGT, he acts as an ambassador on campus to prospective aerospace students, offering tours and demonstrations of our work. Since he first enrolled at UA, the aerospace program has nearly doubled in size thanks to focus of the university to expand the engineering programs. He is incredibly proud to act as a representative of the VFF at the University of Alabama, as well as act as a representative for the next generation of UA graduates in the aerospace industry.
Outside of his studies, Jackson acts in an amateur theatre troupe and performs in the Huxford Symphony Orchestra as a classical bassist.
"Helicopters have always been such a fascinating subject for me. When I came to university, I had the pleasure of taking a class on micro air vehicles, and joined a team that conducted quadcopter experiments. My work with vertical flight technologies is limited, but I aim to be more involved in the field as I continue my studies. I’m particularly fascinated by the amazing, unconventional configurations that enable the vertical flight field to continue to change as time goes on. It’s undoubtable that advances in rotorcraft technology will be key in allowing new, efficient uses in aviation for humanity."
"I learned about the VFF scholarship through the Redstone Chapter of the AHS. I first received an AHS scholarship in 2013, and at that time was only a sophomore at the University of Alabama. The AHS-Redstone scholarship offered direct mentorships arranged through its chapter members. Mr. Raymond Handy, the AHS Scholarship Coordinator at that time, was able to put me in direct contact with Mr. John Schibler, who is Boeing’s Chief Engineer of their global Attack Helicopter program! I will be forever grateful for the opportunity this AHS scholarship provided me. In subsequent years, the AHS-Redstone scholarship coordinators suggested that I consider applying for the VFF scholarship (as well as applying for the local chapter AHS scholarships), since I now had additional university research and internship experience.
I’m incredibly honored to be the recipient of a VFF scholarship. The financial assistance has allowed me to graduate with as little debt as possible, but I am also incredibly grateful for the industry exposure that the American Helicopter Society has provided. I know the opportunities I have had were greatly assisted by the recognition I have received from the AHS.
Furthermore, a relatively new professor at the University of Alabama, Dr. Jinwei Shen, an active AHS member, was brought to UA in 2013. He is my current professor for my senior seminar and flight dynamics classes. So I feel that my connections with AHS are real ones. Lastly, and probably most importantly, I feel that the connections I can make in the aviation industry, thanks to these scholarships and my AHS membership, allow me to call upon any AHS member for advice, whenever I might need it."
"I plan to return to the aerospace industry. I love working with aircraft of any kind, and hope to work designing and testing new aircraft and rotorcraft technologies. I also aim to obtain my Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering; currently I’m deciding between completing mine immediately after university or getting more involved with the industry first."
2017 Update: Jackson is now a MS student at UA Tuscaloosa.

What do you like to have with your potatoes? Here’s another simple recipe for you to try for meal prep or just for the love of potatoes. For this recipe I used purple potatoes but you use any kind of potato. Purple potatoes are nutritionally similar to white potatoes. Their flamboyant purple color comes from the presence of anthocyanins which are also found in blueberries, purple cabbage and other blue/purple foods.
Try this recipe and let me know what you think. I enjoyed these potatoes with some string beans and ground turkey.
1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or foil.
2. Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl; toss until well-combined. Spread potatoes and carrots onto baking sheet in a single layer.
3. Roast until potatoes and carrots are soft (about 40 to 50 minutes); toss veggies using a spoon after about 20-30 minutes of roasting. Serve warm.

hello hello. Jeez! I'm actually to tired to write about my first "my coach" experience. But since I had delicious food today I did not want to withhold it. I'm currently following the meal plan from Freunde am Kochen - it's called "my coach". At first I was a little sceptical if the strict plan would offer enough free space for my creativity. (since I mostly make up my own recipes - a mixture of different ones). But because I just like to challenge myself I started today. Since it needs a little preparation I already went through the recipe box on Sunday. I choose the overnight oats, because I already hat oats and dairy free milk at home. (the package comes with a shopping list, which you could follow, I firstly went through my fridge & cupboard to check what I already have or how I could adapt the recipes). here are two recipes of my first day.
I cooked a whole pot of millet (since I'll use more during the week). Preheat the oven (200°). Chop up the vegetables and mix everything beside the Veganella. Pour into a baking tray. Then top the mixture with Veganella and seeds, as much as you like, sprinkle salt and pepper over it and bake for around 20'.
put all the ingredients into your blender and blend till smooth. You can also add almonds, pine nuts, cashews to it and skip the veganella.
my summary after the first day. I'm positively surprised. The program is a great guideline and still offers a lot of creativity. i.e. I just used the vegetables in my fridge instead of buying the suggested broccoli (I knoooow' broccoli is green and has a lot of great nutrients - next time) and the actual recipes would have included meat & dairy - I just exchanged / skipped it.
Another very positiv thing: I did spend way less money than usually. Because with a meal plan and shopping list you don't get overwhelmed by all the options or confused by your lust.
ok, good night or good morning on the other side of the globe. I'm done for today..

The love of wine is universal, enjoyed in homes and restaurants across the globe. Maybe you happen to be just one of the millions who enjoy wine. Prior to hoisting a glass, though, you do need to gain some specific knowledge. Read on to find out some handy tips and tricks.
Be aware of all the different wine shops. That’s because each shop is different. Each store has a unique selection and will offer different prices. If you are just getting started in drinking wine, going to a store with a bunch of expensive bottles may not be for you. Find a place where you are comfortable.
Add some red wine to beef dishes. To create this sauce, simply add a little butter and your most enjoyable red wine to a saucepan. Simmer it for a little while to burn off the excess alcohol and to thicken the sauce. You should then drizzle your sauce over your beef dish.
Think about what you like when shopping for wine. While professional wine tasters have strong opinion over which wines are best, studies have been done that show that the average person actually prefers less expensive wine if they do not know the price.

Book of Mormon Central is on a mission, and that mission is to increase understanding and faithful engagement with the Book of Mormon.
Book of Mormon Central is a team of ardent students of the Nephite scripture working together to share the wonders of this inspired masterpiece with the world.
The team consists of archivists, researchers, writers, editors, reviewers, illustrators, narrators, audio engineers, video engineers, web designers, web and mobile developers, graphic artists, and social media publishers in addition to support personnel.
They just released another YouTube video detailing the complexity of the Book of Mormon, as further evidence that the Book of Mormon was not a work of Joseph Smith, but of dozens of ancient Nephite prophets who testified of Jesus Christ in their own styles and based on their unique circumstances.
Below is a screenshot from the video detailing the many different literary techniques and styles that have been discovered in the Book of Mormon.
Check out the video below. It was incredible done and does a wonderful job of portraying just how difficult it would have been for an uneducated farm boy to fabricate this book on his own accord.
This dramatic shift may lead some to wonder: how did Joseph the “blockhead” suddenly transform into Joseph the “genius” in the eyes of his critics?
In truth, this change had little to do with Joseph himself, and much more to do with the 588-page book that he dictated to scribes in less than three months. As people began to analyze the text more carefully, it became clear that it was far more complex and sophisticated than most had ever imagined.
What makes the Book of Mormon’s sophistication so remarkable is that it can be demonstrated on so many different levels.
The text has over 200 named characters, over 150 named locations, multiple migrations, distinct cultures, 3 calendar systems, a system of weights and measures, complex source texts, genealogies, lineage histories, political histories, authentic legal cases, realistic battles, multiple literary genres, embedded flashbacks, brilliant doctrinal discourses, numerous fulfilled prophecies, and well over a thousand proposed intertextual relationships and Hebrew literary elements.
Amazingly, these features are all intricately woven together into a coherent narrative which is essentially free from error.
For instance, the Book of Mormon has over 600 passages of geographic relevance scattered throughout its text, and yet virtually every city, land, body of water, hill, or region maintains a consistent spatial relationship with other geographic features.
Another example of consistency comes from the lengthy genealogical record found in the book of Ether. The first chapter introduces a list of thirty different kings beginning with Ether and going back to Jared. This list then serves as a framework for the rest of the book, which precisely chronicles the reigns of its kings—except in reverse order.
Trying to keep track of the various sets of plates, through their transmission through prophetic caretakers, and how they are all tied together can be a formidable task. Yet careful analysis has shown that the source texts of the Book of Mormon have been masterfully abridged into a coherent and unified record.
In the book of Helaman, Samuel the Lamanite prophesied of the coming of “Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and of earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning.” This 21-word name-title happens to be a verbatim quote from King Benjamin’s speech, given nearly 250 pages earlier, thus offering a remarkable example of the Book of Mormon’s intertextual relationships.
Chapters 17 through 27 in the book of Alma actually contain a flashback within a flashback, allowing readers to view the destruction of Ammonihah from two different perspectives. Yet these separate narrative threads are expertly woven together and seamlessly converge back into the original storyline.
In Alma 11 we find a developed system of weights and measures. Not only does it have parallels to ancient Mesopotamian and Egyptian systems, but its units of exchange are surprisingly practical.
The Book of Mormon contains a number of uniquely developed doctrines, such as the Plan of Salvation. Despite the fact that each prophet adapted these core doctrines to his people’s various circumstances, it is clear that they shared a very nuanced and consistent set of related theological ideas.
Perhaps most impressive of all are the Book of Mormon’s variety and quantity of Hebraisms—or features typical of the ancient Hebrew literary tradition and culture. These Hebraisms are consistent with the text’s claimed Israelite background, and many of them can be quite sophisticated.
For instance, the entire chapter of Alma 36 is a unified chiasm, which introduces 17 key concepts and then repeats them in reverse order. Another parallel structure, called gradation, repeats each successive concept to create a unity of ideas and build up to a climactic conclusion.
At least 50 types of poetic, grammatical, or literary Hebraisms have been identified in the Book of Mormon. Many of them show up in the dozens, and some of them, like chiasmus, show up in the hundreds.
This brief sampling can hardly convey the full depth and breadth of the Book of Mormon’s impressive complexity. But it’s enough to demonstrate that the book is anything but ridiculous—as many early critics believed.
Some have even compared the Book of Mormon—with its immersive world and characters—to popular fantasy novels such as J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings.
Yet, to put things in perspective, Tolkien was an English professor who spent decades developing and revising the world of Middle Earth and the characters who inhabited it.
In contrast, Joseph Smith was an uneducated farmer who dictated the entire book of Mormon, in the presence of multiple witnesses, in no more than 74 working days, without any notes or reference materials, without any substantive revisions, and without relying on scribes to help him remember where he had left off after interruptions.
Whether a genius or not, it seems highly improbable that anyone, even a trained literary scholar like Tolkien, could have created and then flawlessly juggled so many complex features under these conditions.
Yet somehow, the young 23-year-old Joseph Smith accomplished it, without any prior literary experience to speak of.
For this reason, the Book of Mormon’s complexity, consistency, and sophistication provide excellent evidence that it truly was translated by the gift and power of God, just as Joseph Smith repeatedly testified.
Thanks! I look forward to more productions and to have access to some of the graphics from this presentation especially the breakdown of all the various books in the BOM and their relationship to one another and a common time line.
Thanks … fantastic work and very well expressed. Anyone who has created characters in a book knows how long and painstaking the effort and rewriting takes over months and years. 74 days (less than 3 months) start to finish is a miraculous task for anyone let alone a 22 year old farm boy with very little education.
Lets try and use ‘heterosexual’ types that convey either masculinity for males or femininity for women rather than jump on board the ‘gender confusion train’ like everyone else. A frail ‘male’ in skinny jeans doesn’t accomplish this.

Salvador Rodrígez was a Spanish politician who served as mayor of San Antonio, Texas in 1785 and 1796, replacing to mayors Francisco Javier Rodríguez and Ramón de las Fuentes respectively.
Salvador Rodrígez (1688 - unknown) was a Spanish politician who served as regidor in San Antonio, Texas. His family arrived in San Antonio from the Canary Islands, Spain, in 1731 with other Canarian families to bring order and populate this frontier region.
Salvador Rodríguez was born about 1688 in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain. His parents were Francisco Rodriguez and Isabel de los Reyes, natives from Tenerife. In Canary, he was a cheese maker, but in 1730 he and his family emigrated to San Antonio, where they arrived in 1731 with others Canarian families in order populate this region, when he was 42 years old. He was regidor of San Antonio.
He married the Canarian Maria Perez Cabrera (native from Lanzarote), with who had one child: Patricio Rodríguez.
Martínez Rodríguez, Cuban vocalist most known for his collaboration with Tacabro (aka Romano & Sapienza), most notably "Tacata'"
Rodriguez was a rock band active in the mid to late 1990s based in San Luis Obispo, California.
The band is notable as an early collaboration between Matt Ward (who later came to prominence as M. Ward) and Kyle Field (aka Little Wings), along with a series of drummers: Jake Hockel, Sanjeev Srinivas, and Mike Funk. The band was described by Field as "the band in which I learned how to play music".
They completed one full-length album, 2000's Swing Like A Metronome, which was produced by Jason Lytle of Grandaddy and released by independent label Devil in the Woods. The band also released a couple of songs recorded by Adam Selzer from the M. Ward band and Norfolk & Western. Co-dependent Records released the "Weren't a Problem" EP as a 7" in 1996 and a cassette entitled "Cash Crops and Box Plots" in 1995.
Salvador is a red wine grape that is grown primarily in the Central Valley of California with some experimental plantings in Washington State.
The grape is normally used as a teinturier imparting some of its deep coloring to the blend. The grape's juice has a gelatin like texture and is difficult to extract from its small bunches.

First, I’ll discuss blizzards as part of my avalanche post for A.
A BLIZZARD is a severe snowstorm that typically lasts for three hours or more. Frequent snow fall combined with wind of 35 mph or greater reduces visibility (this is known as a whiteout), making driving and even venturing outdoors dangerous. Sleet and freezing rain can make matters worse when you’re traveling. And blizzards can cause snowdrifts (huge mountains of snow) that you may not see until you run into one. Snowdrifts can get so big that they can bury houses and trap residents inside for days.
FACT: The Storm of the 20th Century took place in March 1993, causing 300 deaths and 10 million power outages.
Blizzards are very dangerous if you’re caught outside in one. Low wind chill (the amount of cooling one “feels” due to wind and temperature) can result in frostbite and hypothermia. Even If you’re safe indoors, heavy snowfall can cave in roofs, freeze pipes, and snap power lines, which will take out your electricity and heat. If you’re trapped inside a house, waiting for the snowdrifts to melt, food and water may run low.
FACT: A severe blizzard has near or below zero temperature.
1. Stay hydrated and well nourished.
2. Keep moving to avoid hypothermia.
3. Build a snow cave to block the wind.
If there is a blizzard warning, stock up on non-perishable food, bottled water, blankets, candles and matches.
A BLACKOUT is a total loss of power to an area due to a power station tripping, and is the most extreme form of power outage that can ever occur. It is difficult to recover from this type of outage and it can last anywhere from minutes to weeks. In a blackout, whole cities are impacted.
At night, it becomes so dark without the glow of streetlights, buildings and cars that it can appear pitch-black, as if a cloak is covering the city. Blackouts are dangerous because if they last for days, food and clean water can run low. Crimes also spike.
QUESTION: Has anyone here ever been in a blizzard or blackout?
I'ma member of Tremp's Troops!
Excellent "B" post Chrys, most graphic and interesting to read.
I don't know how you could do it, Melanie. Brrr!
I live close to the Tropic of Capricorn, so do not experience snow. These pics are great to view. They give a real perspective of what it would be like.
When I lived in the Midwest, we experienced blizzards often. I remember once the snowdrift came up to the roof and covered our sliding glass doors.
We had a few this year and thankfully I didn't lose power.
That's good! Losing power during a blizzard is the worst. Or so everyone says. I've never experienced one.
The snow storms of my teen years were consistently blizzard-ish. The weather has definitely changed in the Northeast. I'm in TN now, and they call a dusting a bad snow and they lose power way more often then I ever remember it happening up north.
I'm still looking at the snow from this winter's blizzards! Luckily I've never been caught outside in one, though.
The snow is still there. Wow!
I've never been in a blizzard - it just doesn't do that around here in Kent, however, I do remember a total blackout. After the hurricane of 1987 we had no power in our village for over a week. The whole community pulled together, those with gas cooking and heating water for those who were all electric.
I've experienced power outages from hurricanes. They are not fun.
I've been in a blizzard. Grew up on a farm and we still had to take care of the cows, milk them and try to keep the lane open. Even got frostbite.
The longest we've gone without power in our current home was about a day and a half.
Frostbite? Ouch! I wouldn't do well in places that get hit hard in the winter.
Been in both. There used to be a lot of black outs and power outages in Haiti. But it never bothered people. They'd just break out the candles and hang out on the porch/veranda. A blackout happened when I was a teen in NYC once and had to walk 10+ blocks home from my friend's house. Good thing it happened during the day. But I don't mind blizzards really (but can't stand the cold) BC at least I get a snow day BC of it.
Yes, unfortunately I've experienced a blizzards and blackouts. I find these posts very interesting Chrys. With all the facts you share, these conditions and events could be tucked into a story, wisely. Thanks.
Oh yes. I got a lot of ideas for stories with these posts. ;) I'm glad you find them interesting.
I can only imagine stand on snow so deep I'm at the top of a power pole!
When I was a kid we had a blizzard (the same year as the New York pic) and that was very unusual for Cincinnati. Of course, since I was only 9 I loved it. The main thing I remember is we only had to go to school for half a day because a nearby school had no power so we shared our building with them. I thought that was about the most awesome thing ever ha.
I would've thought that was fun too. Haha.
I was very, very young at the time, but I remember it being so cold we all gathered around our furnace in the basement and my parents quietly worried about it giving out.
I can only image their fear.
No Blizzards here in sleepy southern England, but we have had a blackout. We had a hurricane in 1987, something the UK was totally unprepared for, and it took out our power for a week. Luckily we had gas to cook with.
No blizzards here in Florida either, but plenty of blackouts due to hurricanes. I had no power for a week once, too. It was crazy!
Weather is sometimes the most basic thing we forget that is can hold us all in one place.. without it trying to hard.
Weather is a force not to be reckoned with.
I'd much rather experience a blackout due to thunderstorms etc than a blizzard any day!
A blizzard would make a great setting for suspense or a love story. I've been in a few blizzards having lived on the Canadian Prairies for over 20 years. I've driven in a white out (never again!) and was afraid for my life. Blackouts are scary. Remember when 1/2 of New York experience black out with the hurricane? Great tips on survival of each, Chrys.
Yes, it would. Oh gosh, whiteouts are so dangerous. Good thing you survived that! I sure do remember that. I was watching the news about the New York blackout.
Been through plenty of blizzards. I remember the blizzard of 93 that you mentioned. I was in the mountains of southern West Virginia at the time. Now I live in Florida so no more blizzards.
I'm in Florida too. Good thing, because I wouldn't do well in a blizzard.
Goodness, those pictures look so dreadful! I pray I never get caught in a blizzard. And I had no idea you can "drink" snow. Yikes!
As long its melted and warmed, you can.
That's fascinating. I couldn't image needing a generator at night, but if I grew up there it wouldn't be a big thing.
There was a huge, famous blizzard in Albany, NY on 4 October 1987, shortly after my family had moved into our new house. We get brutal winters, but we hadn't gotten a blizzard that early before. Every winter, I'm tempted by my aunt's repeated offer to move to Florida to be near her.
Great post! I've been in a couple of each over the years. The first blizzard I remember was when I was 4. Woke to 3 feet of snow! It was amazing. We used to keep candles our Coleman lantern handy due to black outs. They never lasted long, but they happened a lot.
You were four and you remember that? I can't remember anything from when I was four. Haha!
Pa. in a whiteout was scary! I stopped and stayed out at a weight for hours.
Should say: ...stayed at a weight station for hours.
I can imagine how scary that would be.
Great post ~ each of those photos tell quite a story. Southern Ontario has had some horrific ice storms in the past few years, accompanied by long power shortages ... weeks, not just days! Mother Nature is not always good to us!
Mother Nature does what she wants. She's a fierce one.
What a great theme! I have been in a blizzard but never a blackout.
The last major blizzard here was in 2004. Roofs were collapsing. We've had a few blackouts. Ugh. They're awfully scary, especially at night.
Blackouts are worst at night.
I haven't experienced those conditions, though this year it felt like a blizzard with those cold temps and snow.
Hi Chrys - I wrote about our snows that lasted for 10 weeks and we had blizzards then .. we must have had power blackouts - though I don't remember that .. the snow was dreadful .. and I was ill - so was late going back to school - but everyone was much hardier then - in the early 60s ..
We can have white outs down here - had one when Mum was alive .. it all came down in an hour .. completely couldn't see - only six inches but that was enough in an hour .. and I just managed to get home ... it was April so it wasn't too cold.
Horrifying experience .. either of them!
Being sick during blizzards would be terrible!
Never been in either (had short blackouts sometimes but never longer than an hour or so). I really hate the cold (maybe I shouldn't be in Ohio...), and a blizzard is something I'd never want to experience.
I'd never want to experience a blizzard either, and thankfully won't in Florida.
Ha! I was born in Michigan but was raised in Florida. My dad lives there now though and tells me all about the winters up there.
No blizzards around this part of the country. Not days-long blackouts, but blackouts that happen for a couple hours, yes. Still remember the rolling blackouts of a decade or so ago.
I grew up in Michigan so I love a good snowstorm. The more the better.
I was born in Michigan but my family moved down to Florida when I was two, so I don't remember the snow.
Good luck with the A-Z challenge. Great B post!! Also, heartfelt thanks to you for posting all your writing tips - specifically the editing tips. They were a great help to me, resulting in a much tighter written first novel. All the best.
The very thought makes me shiver! I'll take sunshine anytime :-) Well done, Chrys!
Never caught in a blizzard yet. Not unless you count the times they refused to cancel school when I was a youth for snowy conditions. If I ever were to be caught in a blizzard, I'd hope there would be a Tauntaun and lightsaber handy.
I've been pretty fortunate with blackouts as well. However, once touring a cavern the tour guide took us to the deepest part we could possibly go and then turned out all the lights. Absolute darkness can be quite disorienting.
We have a blizzard going on right now, but it's pretty tame. In Canada, we're so used to them that they normally don't result in fatalities. In rural areas, blackouts are common, but thankfully don't last very long.
Really? Wow. I didn't know Canada was experiencing a blizzard right now. I can see where Canadians would be used to them.
I don't blame you, David.
You could add "buzzards and bats" Nice post.
Yes, you're right, I was thinking more haunted than disaster/crime scenes, but the buzzards would be there after the scene to clean it up!
Oh, yes, they would be.
Never was in a blizzard, got a lot of snow when we lived in Montana, but never blizzard conditions like described here.
Yep, blackout back in 2011 when we lived in San Diego. Some person flipped the wrong switch or something like that and wiped out power for all of San Diego County, some of Orange County (right above San Diego County) and to parts of Arizona. It took about 24 hours to completely restore power. They could only bring back a few grids at a time to not overload the system. We were out for about 21 hours. Lesson learned....eat ice cream first. It was the hottest day of August, LOL, and we thought it wouldn't be off for that long, even after we heard the news about what happened. Of course the ice cream melted, even in the freezer, had to be thrown away. Next time ice cream gets eaten!
Blizzards, ugh. I've had enough of those for a lifetime, and that's just talking about this winter. Once a few years ago, there was actually a blizzard that caused a blackout! It was very cold and we couldn't use the refrigerator (although we could put the cold items outside in the snow).
I guess that's one good thing about snow during a blizzard.
Weather can be so brutal, especially snow. I've had street-wide blackouts, but not whole city ones. I imagine chaos would reign!
Chaos would reign. You're right about that.
I grew up in New York City and survived both the 1965 blackout (I was 12) and several blizzards (and a hurricane). Living in upstate New York, I've been through several more major snowstorms, including the storm of March, 1993.
Those must make great stories.
Was in a three day blackout in the middle of winter. There was no heat or stove until they replaced the power pole that broke and burned.
That would be brutal. I've only experienced blackouts in the heat after a hurricane.
I've never been in a blizzard because I only spent one year in West Virginia and that winter while it was snowy it wasn't a blizzard. Now I have been in a couple of short term blackouts. Here in Las Vegas we have flash floods in the summer time where the rain will come down really hard for an hour and flood out places. It also knocks out the power at times. The longest power outage we had was 3 days. Last year we had a loss of power for 2 hours a total of three times last summer. I keep ice blocks in my freezer to keep my rats cool, bottles of water in a cabinet and canned food in the bottom of the closet just in case the power is out for more than a few hours.
Rain that knocks out power must be a heavy downpour. Keeping ice, water, and canned goods on hand is a good idea!
I've been in a blackout (in a city) that lasted for more than a day. The interesting thing is it actually brought the community closer together. People eating together and watching the stars and helping direct traffic. Who knows what would have happened if it went on, but it was an eye-opener.
Disasters often to bring communities closer. That's the oen good thing about them.
Unfortunately I'm well acquainted with both blizzards and black-outs. Neither are fun ... especially when the black-out occurs during arctic temperatures. Brrrr.
A blackout with a blizzard would be horrible!
I think 1993 was the year we got the really bad ice storm in Nashville. Ice formed on a lot of power lines and power went out for people for weeks. I'd love to have a backup generator in case that ever happens again.
You can never go wrong with a back up generate.
Too scary events. Growing up in Chicago we had several blizzards. I never knew that time was a factor in the definition. Now we live at the end of a peninsula in New Zealand, and we have frequent black outs.
I've been in several blackouts over the years. Too many to keep track of really, lol. Though I haven't been in a blizzard yet. The photo you shared of the man standing next to a power line is pretty intense. I've been in below zero temperatures but hope I never ever see that much snow fall. Yikes! Thanks for sharing, Chrys.
Thanks for stopping by, Lanise!
Time to prepare is important and something we didn't have back in the day.
Not many blizzards in So. Cal., but I was in the 1994 earthquake and we lost all power everywhere. Scary!!!
I didn't know you can't eat snow!!!! I grew up in MA and feel I should have known that. At least I know it now, thank you!
Well, don't eat snow when you're stuck outside. It'll freeze your insides.
The only time I've been in a blizzard is on a train travelling from Luxembourg to Brussels. I was so excited, rushing from one side of the train to the other snapping away. Got some great pics. The locals on the train shook their heads, well used to such extremes.
We get blackouts in Australia during thunderstorms which can be pretty fierce here in the sub-tropics. Was out 3 days once after a severe hailstorm. Not fun, but luckily the council allowed everyone to leave their rotting food on the footpath and they came by and collected it all.
That was nice of the council. No one wants rotting food in the house.
Don't drink/eat snow in a blizzard because of the extreme cold. The cold snow will freeze your insides.
Never faced a drastic blizzard in the 4 years we have been in the US. Although my hubby and I got experience the same set of problems in 2012 when we were working in different cities and the hurricane - Sandy arrived. I wasn't able to reach him since there was no power to charge his phone and our family back home was worried to know the impact.
Hurricane Sandy was a beast!
i remember the blizzard of '67 in Chicago, when our mom took my brother and me to the grocery store on a sled! I thought that you only weren't supposed to eat yellow snow!
No yellow snow. Definitely not. You could eat snow, just not when you have no way to keep your body warm. Otherwise that snow will freeze your insides.
Reading about these two disasters definitely gives me ideas for scenes in stories! I think the blackout one for some reason really intrigues me, because blizzards have been done a lot in stories. Of course, I've never lived through a blizzard so I wouldn't mind at least being able to watch one from safe indoors (with a roof that won't collapse!).
Blizzards are been done a lot. I had actually read a blizzard story when I got the idea for Hurricane Crimes, because I had never come across a story that took place during a hurricane.
In honor of the upcoming holiday of Passover, for B, the plague of BUGS and the plague of BOILS.
I was in the Blizzard of '77 in Buffalo NY. What a storm that was. We were stuck inside for days, couldn't get out our front door because the snow drifts were so high. My brother who was working at GM was stuck in the plant for several days. When it was over, we ventured out and drove around town. Houses were completely buried and all you could see were the peaks of rooftops. Entire roads were nothing but snow drifts and completely impassable. While the storm was starting a state of emergency was declared and all vehicles were restricted from travel. The only means of transport were emergency snow-mobiles. It was insane. I live in Austin TX now and believe it or not, I miss the snow so much! I yearn to go back to Buffalo and be stuck in a blizzard again (tucked safely in a nice warm cozy home with family and good friends of course). :) Great post Chrys.
Seeing houses buried, and being inside a house buried by snow, would be frightening.
I worked at the Bank of New York during the March 1993 storm. Even though we were released from work early (before noon), I didn't make it home until after dark. It was a mess.
It took you that long to get home? Geez! That sounds like mess.

Mark Warburton believes he retains the backing of 95 per cent of Rangers supporters and insists he remains fully committed to the task of restoring the Ibrox club to the summit of Scottish football.
The Rangers manager, who labelled speculation linking him with the vacancy at English Championship club Wigan Athletic as “nonsensical”, feels criticism of his team’s start to the season is largely confined to what he describes as “rogue comments” on radio phone-ins and newspaper hotlines.
Warburton’s side have dropped 14 points from their first 10 Premiership fixtures, leaving them in fifth place in the Ladbrokes Premiership. Their 1-1 draw at home to St Johnstone on Wednesday night was greeted by jeers from their own fans.
But, while Warburton accepts the level of Rangers’ second half performance merited that reaction, he is confident the vast majority of the club’s support still have faith in his ability to create a team ultimately capable of challenging for the title.
“We have spoken to enough genuine Rangers supporters and we are not listening to the five per cent minority,” said Warburton. “We are not listening to them at all. The feedback we get from the rest is positive. They understand that we are trying to play. The second half against St Johnstone wasn’t good enough. Why did I say the boos were understandable? Because it wasn’t a good second half. You pay your money to be entertained. I know I wasn’t entertained in the second half, I didn’t enjoy watching my team. So I understand the boos, absolutely.
“But I know the vast majority of Rangers fans have been first class, they’ve been fantastic. There are rogue comments in papers or on radio stations. We don’t listen to that.
“If the board come and speak to me, that’s different. If you listen to certain comments, you’d think the pressure comes from the board because we have won four out of 10 in the league. If we had won on Wednesday, where would we be in relation to Aberdeen and Hearts? We are just 10 games in, it’s still very early in the season. We still have players gelling and settling in.
Warburton was quickly installed as one of the leading candidates for the Wigan job after the sacking earlier this week of former Celtic and Scotland defender Gary Caldwell.
“No disrespect to Wigan, they are a very good club, but I have got to ask where did that come from?,” said Warburton.
“Does it really warrant being on the back page, Warburton being linked to the Wigan job? I can’t control that, but it is nonsensical.
“We are more than committed to Rangers and I hope the Rangers fans know that. They see the project we are doing here.
Warburton was speaking before Joey Barton reported to Ibrox for talks with Rangers officials in regard to his ongoing suspension from the club following a training ground bust-up in the aftermath of the 5-1 defeat by Celtic on 10 September. Barton declined to make any comment as he made his way into the meeting which lasted for two hours. The 34-year-old’s suspension remains in place as the disciplinary process continues.

Speakers at a day-long workshop on ‘Innovative Climate Resilient Livelihoods Activities in Coastal belt’ have identified the need for innovation to face the adverse impact of climate change in every steps in the coastal region, which is necessary as Bangladesh enroute to becoming a middle income country.
“Bangladesh is now becoming a middle-income economy. In this scenario, we have to move ahead with more innovative programmes,” Secretary of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Abdullah Al Mohsin Chowdhury, said at the workshop organized jointly by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) on August 14, 2018 at Ban Bhaban in the capital’s Agargaon.
Speaking as the chief guest he also pointed out that emphasis put by the government on Mangrove reforestation to protect coastal residents is evident by its inclusion in various government policies including NAPA, BCCSAP and the five-yearly plan.
Lauding UNDP for its past support in reforestation of 9000-hectare mangrove area in the coastal districts, Chowdhury continued to praise innovations of the Integrating Community-based Adaptation into Afforestation and Reforestation (ICBA-AR) Programmes in Bangladesh, a project undertaken by the government with technical support from UNDP and funding from Global Environment Fund (GEF).
The four-year ICBAAR project has been working since July 2016 in five coastal districts most affected by climate change – Noakhali, Bhola, Barguna, Patuakhali and Pirojpur – to decrease adverse effects through participatory planning, community-based management and costal forestation and reforestation.
The project’s main focus is to decrease climate change vulnerability of the coastal population through sustainable livelihood adaptation.
Among others, Mohammed Shafiul Alam Chowdhury, Chief Conservator of Forest was special guest. Mr. Shamsur Rahman Khan, Deputy Secretary of MoEFCC, ICBA-AR Project Manager Dr. Mohammed Muzammel Hoque, Project Manager-ICBA-AR were also spoke on the occasion.
Over fifty participants, including officials from different ministries and departments of the government, climate change experts and researchers along representatives from NGOs, Media and civil societies discussed innovative livelihood options suitable for coastal area residents.

The commandant in charge of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Abuja, Solomon Iyamu, has appealed to his officers to see the police killing of their colleague as “an act of God”.
The slain NSCDC officer, Ogar Jumbo, was beaten to death on Wednesday in Abuja in the presence of his wife and children by police officers who accused him of violating traffic regulations.
Mr Jumbo was an assistant civil defence superintendent.
Abuja police commissioner, Bala Ciroma, during a condolence visit to the Civil Defence office this week, said the police have accepted responsibility for the brutal killing of Mr Jumbo.
“Following the death of Ochigbo Jumbo Ogar (ASCI), an officer formerly serving at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command, the commandant in charge of the command, Mr Iyamu, has appealed to his officers and men to take the incident as an act of God, despite the fact that the unjust killing was perpetrated by men of a sister agency,” NSCDC said in a statement on the incident.
The commandant, Mr Iyamu, is said to have made the appeal while addressing the NSCDC officers at his Wuse Zone 5, Office, Abuja, after receiving the police commissioner, Mr Ciroma.
Mr Iyamu commended the police commissioner for his prompt response to the incident which resulted in both men visiting the Asokoro General Hospital to get first-hand information on the incident and the subsequent order for the detention of the police officers who were involved in it.
Mr Iyamu told his officers that the leadership of both the police and the NSCDC were looking into the matter.

Discussion in 'BlackHat Lounge' started by The Scarlet Pimp, Sep 11, 2014.
even tor can't be trusted... this would be a great time to get into the 'net security biz!
As the trial of alleged Silk Road drug market creator Ross Ulbricht approaches, the defense has highlighted the mystery of how law enforcement first located the main Silk Road server in an Icelandic data center, despite the computer being hidden by the formidable anonymity software TOR.
Was the FBI tipped off to the server's location by the NSA, who used a secret and possibly illegal TOR-cracking technique?
In a rebuttal filed Friday to a New York court Friday and accompanied by a letter from the FBI, the prosecution in Ulbricht's case laid out an argument dismissing a series of privacy concerns Ulbricht's lawyers had expressed in a motion submitted to a New York court last month.
That earlier motion had accused the government of illegal searches in violation of the Fourth Amendment, including a warrantless search of the Silk Road server, and argued that those privacy violations could render inadmissible virtually all of the prosecution's evidence. The defense motion also demanded that the government explain how it tracked down the Silk Road's server, and reveal whether the NSA had participated in that hunt.
If the judge accepts the prosecution?s explanation, it could represent a major blow to Ulbricht?s chances of beating the seven charges against him.
My understanding was that the guy had installed a Captcha on the site and that was leaking the server's real IP address.
Sounds like a load of BS. NSA has been caught providing dodgy advice before, purposely placing big dirty holes in security protocols like SSL. It seems a bit too easy to just find an element that was mis-configured. Having said that, there are several HTML elements that will leak your real IP on the TOR network.

I, like you, went to high school. When I was in high school, I already knew that I wanted to be a musician and a writer when I grew up. Even though neither of those professions require a degree, I was made to believe that I had to go to college to be successful in life. And so I packed my nervous bags and made way to New York by way of Ohio. I apprehensively took my place among thousands of other students at my school and I felt out of place immediately.
You see, I was always a ‘good’ student. I graduated high school with nearly a 4.0. I aced tests and papers without wincing and was in every club. Kids like me were supposed to go to college. Period. But I never wanted to.
I went because my parents wanted me to.
I dragged myself through four and a half years of college. I transferred schools. I worked 2 jobs (yes, 60+ hours a week) on top of being a full time student. I was miserable. I was utterly, thoroughly, entirely, unexplainably miserable until I decided not to go back to college. I was only a semester or so shy of my degree and I woke up and decided I was done. I made a decision for myself and not for my parents. Finally, I took control of my life and my happiness and I have never looked back since.
College wasn’t for me and it wasn’t for what I wanted to do. I am sure it is the right place for some people (or most people), but that didn’t mean it was right for me. I have not only enjoyed life more than ever since I made my decision, but my career finally fell into place upon making it, too.
If your passion doesn’t require a degree, don’t convince yourself you need one. Of course there is something to be said for things learned in college, and I hate it when people tell me that I wasted money and time in college -that’s ridiculous. I have four and a half years of college education and experience; I learned, I grew, I thrived, I starved, and, eventually, I moved on. But even with all of that, college just isn’t right for some people.
If college IS for you, that’s great! But before you assume that you are college bound (particularly because someone else told you to be college bound), sit down and ask yourself: Is college for you or not?

Chalet double room Luxury Lodges accommodation, 2 safaris per person per day, activities, drinks and selection of house wine.
Recommended program for the whole year, expecially from April to November.
If you are looking for a travel which offers unusual landscapes of Namibia, where there are no noisy tourists where you don’t find any raising clouds of dust, we suggest this exclusive holiday, full of colors, scents and relax, without sacrificing typical Africa animals discovering activities.
You can reach the Lodges in the Kaokoveld land both by 4×4 vehicle, through a difficult but fascinating adventure that gets to some of the most famous of places of Namibia, by plane (just in 2h 30′), during which you can look at the wonders of the coast and the inland.
The Lodges are luxury structures builted in the Purros Conservancy (area considered malaria free) only 55 km from the Skeleton Coast and about 200 km south of the Kunene River, in the region of Marienfluss in northern Namibia.
The tribe of the Himba lives in the Kaokoveld Area, often described as one of the last true wilderness areas of Namibia: despite being a desert, in that area you can find elephants, lions, giraffes and blacks rhinos.
Further north, along the Kunene River, in a wild and remote area on the border with Angola, you will have a wonderful time, watching at the crocodiles lying on the river banks and the mystic “magic circles” on the desertic grassy areas.
Given the shortage of beds in the high season, we recommend to book your trip well in advance.
What’s included: transfers to and from the airport to the Hotel in Windhoek with private vehicle, breakfasts and meals as in the table, various activities arranged by the Lodge, various activities arranged by the Camp, transfer from the Lodge to the Camp and vice versa, meet and greet at the airport, detailed Itinerary Book, Local Operator sim card (to charge).
What’s not included: internal flights, meals when not mentioned, some activities arranged by the lodge, tips, international flight.
By sending this inquiry I agree to process my personal data according to the law, for the purpose of completion of this request for information.

This week's meet is Baildon Bank, perched on the edge of the moors above Baildon and bursting with local character.
As its getting dark around 8 now it could be a relatively short meet before we head to Fanny's Ale house. Also Paul's pretty worried about the possibility of massive brambles so watch out!
Please post below if your are intending to come.
Paul need not be afeared, the common Baildon Bramble is no match for the Ocun Jamming Glove.
I'll be there if it's not raining - it is my 2nd-closest crag after all!
I guess I'll need to put in my gardening gloves and a pair of secateurs then?
No worries then, Paul can punch the brambles into submission using his ocun crack gloves.
I'll be there. I'll also bring my Ocun bramble-beating gloves in case Paul doesn't show up to this meet.
Looking at the forecast, it will be raining overnight and into tomorrow morning, but it should be dry by the afternoon so we should be good to go.
I'm intending on walking up, so I'd be grateful for a lift to the pub and then home!
As this is my very closest crag, weather dependant, I shall be there.

If I'm there then I can facilitate this. Hoping to be there but weather dependent.
As this is also my very closest crag I shall of course be there (weather dependent).
Baildon is quick drying I'm going tomorrow, will try to find everyone among the brambles!
Neil - do you fancy bringing the size 5 for a rematch with Satire?
Although with the days drawing shorter I might have to forgo Satire for a Moria rematch.
I’m happy to pick people up from Baildon or Shipley train station if you want to let me know when your trains get it. It’s abit of a trek from the stations to the crag!

2014 | J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr.
Retention in care is important for all HIV-infected persons and is strongly associated with initiation of antiretroviral therapy and viral suppression. However, it is unclear how retention in care and age interact to effect viral suppression. We evaluated whether the association between retention and viral suppression differed by age at entry into care.
Cross-sectional analysis (2006-2010) involving 17,044 HIV-infected adults in 14 clinical cohorts across the U.S. and Canada. Patients contributed one year of data during their first full calendar year of clinical observation. Poisson regression examined associations between retention measures [U.S. National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), 6-month gap, and 3-month visit constancy] and viral suppression (HIV RNA ≤200 copies/mL) by age group: 18-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and ≥60 years old.
Overall, 89% of patients were retained in care using the NHAS measure, 74% with the DHHS indicator, 85% did not have a 6-month gap, and 62% had visits in 3-4 quarters of the year; 54% achieved viral suppression. For each retention measure, the association with viral suppression was significant for only the younger age groups (18-29 and 30-39 years): 18-29 [adjusted prevalence ratio (APR)=1.33, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.03-1.70]; 30-39 (APR=1.23, CI=1.01-1.49); 40-49 (APR=1.06, CI=0.90-1.22); 50-59 (APR=0.92, CI=0.75-1.13); ≥60 years (APR=0.99, CI=0.63-1.56) using the NHAS measure as a representative example.
These results have important implications for improving viral control among younger adults, emphasizing the crucial role retention in care plays in supporting viral suppression in this population.
