How's this for a change of pace? Instead of a pristine, high-end edition, I'd like to introduce you to a cheap bonded leather Bible with a glued binding, a fairly typical representative of the type with one or two exceptions. This is the original Compact ESV in British Tan bonded leather, superseded a few years ago by the newer, larger Deluxe Compact with sewn binding.
A thing of beauty? Not exactly. And yet, there is something to it, I have to say. While the materials and construction are unimpressive, this little Bible comes very close to my aesthetic ideal. The color of the cover is right -- a mid-brown tan -- and the warm gold ribbon is a perfect complement. The size is excellent, too: just 6" x 4" x 0.75", perfect for slipping into a jacket pocket. Back when I worshipped in a church with old fashioned pews, size really wasn't an issue, but now the chairs are stackable and there are move things to juggle in hand, so I really appreciate a pocket Bible.
One of the terms you'll hear collectors use often is "beater," the idea being that for everyday use instead of employing something valuable, you have a cheaper alternative at hand, one you don't mind messing up. If you're into watches, you might wear a Patek on special occasions and a Seiko every day. You get the idea. Personally, I don't subscribe to the theory. The point of quality in my mind isn't to remain intact ... it's to hold up better to use. So every Bible is a beater Bible to me, or it's not worth having.
Yes, this is probably the nicest smelling Bible I have. Say what you want about the aroma of leather, it's nothing compared to coffee beans. The back quarter of pages was inundated by the spill, giving them a crispy, brown complexion. But that doesn't stop me from using it from time to time. This is one of those editions I misplace, forget about, and then rediscover and start using again. Not long ago I found it tucked into the bottom of the pouch behind the driver's seat of my wife's station wagon. Last Sunday I read the call to worship from it.
For someone accustomed to quality, there's plenty not to like. The cover (above) has a mind of its own, and the edges have gotten a bit raggedy. The faux grain is kinda nice, though, and the fact that no pages have fallen out despite a lack of care is a testament to the power of glue. Maybe the fact that I've used this as more of a ready reference than a daily reader contributes to the longevity.
For my purposes, though, the compact size and the fact that the bonded leather cover is flexible enough make this is a perfectly usable edition. The complaint about the Compact ESV was that the type was too small, and for sustained use that's probably right. However, I think there's something to be said for a Bible small enough for convenient use in worship, ready when needed and easily tucked away at other times. Which must be why I'm holding onto this thing. Sure, I wish it had the updated ESV text, and I wish the cover was calfskin and there were a couple more ribbons. For what it is, though, and for what it cost, I'm not complaining.

In November 1921 the first purpose-built aircraft carrier was launched by the Japanese, followed a year later by the launch of the British Hermes. The conversion of battlecruisers into aircraft carriers after World War I required the consideration of issues including handling aircraft on the flight deck and the techniques of attacking enemy ships, and the evolution of carrier operations was ongoing when World War II broke out. With a focus on the conflict in the Pacific between the U.S. Navy and the Imperial Japanese fleet, this title examines how aircraft carriers fought during World War II by first considering all the tools and building blocks of carrier operations, and then discussing the various battles that involved aircraft carriers to explore how carrier operations evolved during war.
Every aspect of carrier operations is covered; from the technology used on the carriers and in aircraft including for navigation and communication, to what life was really like in the cockpit for the pilots. A world of tactical dehydration, amphetamine pills, and illegal smoking is explored, as well as the measures pilots implemented to reduce their risk of death in the event of being hit.
The major carrier battles of the war are considered, from Coral Sea to Leyte Gulf, with a focus on how the tools of carrier operations were employed. At the battle of Midway the debate of concentration vs. dispersion became relevant, as the Japanese decided to divide their forces while the Americans concentrated theirs. How Carriers Fought questions these tactics, exploring which worked best in theory and in practice.
The book concludes with a discussion of how carrier operations changed during the course of the war, as better technology and a better understanding of this new type of warfare allowed for quick advances in how operations were carried out.

As you weigh the pros and cons of each presidential candidate against your own personal beliefs and values, don’t forget to consider how each nominee could impact your role in HR and how your department operates within your organization.
Here’s some guidance on how the outcome of the 2016 election could potentially impact the U.S. HR industry.
If Donald Trump takes office, the way your organization manages its health care offerings may change as he promises to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and replace it with a system that relies less on government funding. Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, says she’ll preserve the ACA while expanding its offerings – which means changes may arise if she alters the requirements for employers to offer employees insurance, such as the baseline of working hours and the number of employees on staff.
“By monitoring the presidential candidates’ positions on employer-sponsored health benefits, HR can better understand how they stand on such issues as the tax treatment of health benefits, the impending excise tax on high-value plans, wellness programs and the definition of full-time [employee],” says Chatrane Birbal, a government relations senior adviser at the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), in a recent article posted to the organization’s website.
In other words: Continue monitoring both Trump’s and Clinton’s policies as there could be major shifts in your companies’ ability to provide affordable health insurance, and the types of coverage offered to your workforce. Learn more about the presidential candidates’ health care policies.
Under a Clinton presidency, you may need to revise your compensation packages, as she hopes to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act. She first introduced the bill as a senator in an effort to update the 1963 Equal Pay Act and ensure women are paid fairly. Historically, republicans have been opposed to enacting wage legislation, yet at the recent Republican Convention Ivanka Trump said her father “will fight for equal pay for equal work.” Trump has yet to incorporate this issue into his official platform.
Additionally, paid leave regulations may be impacted by this election. While Trump hasn’t released a plan yet, Clinton says she would put forth legislation to guarantee up to 12 weeks of paid family and medical leave to care for newborns.
“Immigration policy debates and changes to the employment verification process, as well as availability of employment-based visas, have major ramifications for the workplace, and the HR community must be engaged in this area,” says Mike Aitken, SHRM’s vice president of government affairs, on the SHRM website.
However, few HR professionals are taking a proactive approach to developing a strong knowledge base around visa sponsorship, as SHRM discovered in recent survey that revealed 48 percent of its members haven’t accessed information on the topic in the past year.
In the 2016 Envoy Immigration Trends report, we found that 40 percent of employers believed that expats were very important in filling their skills gaps, so we know there isn’t a lack of need. Other tasks, such as benefits, payroll and employee engagement, are often more top of mind, since immigration is tackled on a case-by-case basis. However, even if you’re not presently sponsoring an expat for a temporary or permanent assignment, you may want to adopt an international mindset as many more companies (read: your competitors) are entering the global market, requiring you to learn to compete at a higher level.
Not surprisingly, both candidates diverge on immigration and employment-based topics. Trump has been outspoken concerning his wish to release a nationwide E-Verify mandate, increase prevailing wage (the minimum compensation requirement for expats on permanent assignments) and raise immigration form fees. Clinton wishes to grant immediate green card sponsorship to science, technology, engineering and mathematics graduates of master’s and Ph.D. programs and expand visa opportunities for entrepreneurs.

The great thing about a child quilt is not just can it be used around the baby crib, but also to offer a cover inside the baby crib when the child is not in it. At no phase should it be used as approach for trying to keep the child warm at night, because of the threat of suffocation.
One of the biggest troubles people can encounter is wrecking their comforters. We all hate it when we head out and buy a gorgeous comforter and after only about one wash it is entirely ruined, discolored, torn, and covered with little white lint balls. That is why I suggest duvet covers for your bed set. Duvet cover sets are a great basic method to secure your comforter just put your existing comforter inside it and button, snap, or zip close for a safe and secure fit. By doing this each time you should wash simply throw the duvet cover in the wash rather of your fragile and expensive comforter. By doing this you will be able to include years of longevity to your comforter and secure your bedroom set.

Everyone is on a tight budget, but the state has gone downhill fast.
How does the state expect smaller libraries, with no large local populations or businesses, to buy books for people who appreciate the value of an education? For the next year, Lincoln County will receive $1883.85 to buy books for the whole library! This is for books in reference, children, adults, young adults, biographies, etc. If it wasn't for people donating books, we would just as soon close the doors.
The library provides education, entertainment and a chance to all to enrich their lives. How can we expect patrons to come in when we cannot provide even the best-sellers? I wish: I could have one day to talk to someone who cares and actually can make a change in things. They need to listen to people in small communities to see what it is all about.
I am so discouraged at this moment that I want to cry. We have built one of the best libraries in our area. Lincoln County people appreciate and use the library. We are up about 25 percent over last year in usage. If anyone has any answers, I would like to hear them.

Written by James Madison in 1785, in opposition to a bill, introduced into the General Assembly of Virginia, to levy a general assessment for the support of teachers of religions.
Presented to the Virginia General Assembly 20 June 1785.
The assessment bill was tabled, and in its place the Assembly enacted A Bill for Religious Liberty by Thomas Jefferson.
Often titled A Memorial and Remonstrance Against Religious Assessments, the document itself is titled only A Memorial and Remonstrance.
During the session of the General Assembly 1784–5 a bill was introduced into the House of Delegates providing for the legal support of Teachers of the Christian Religion, and being patronized by the most popular talents in the House, seemed likely to obtain a majority of votes. In order to arrest its progress it was insisted with success that the bill should be postponed till the evening session, and in the meantime be printed for public consideration. That the sense of the people might be the better called forth, your highly distinguished ancestor Col. Geo. Mason, Col. Geo. Nicholas also possessing much public weight and some others thought it advisable that a remonstrance against the bill should be prepared for general circulation and signature and imposed on me the task of drawing up such a paper. The draught having received their sanction, a large number of printed copies were distributed, and so extensively signed by the people of every religious denomination that at the ensuing session the projected measure was entirely frustrated; and under the influence of the public sentiment thus manifested the celebrated bill Establishing Religious Freedom enacted into a permanent barrier against Future attempts on the rights of conscience as declared in the Great Charter prefixed to the Constitution of the State.
We the subscribers, citizens of the said Commonwealth, having taken into serious consideration, a Bill printed by order of the last Session of General Assembly, entitled A Bill establishing a provision for Teachers of the Christian Religion, and conceiving that the same if finally armed with the sanctions of a law, will be a dangerous abuse of power, are bound as faithful members of a free State to remonstrate against it, and to declare the reasons by which we are determined. We remonstrate against the said Bill, 1. Because we hold it for a fundamental and undeniable truth, that religion or the duty which we owe to our Creator and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence. The Religion then of every man must be left to the conviction and conscience of every man; and it is the right of every man to exercise it as these may dictate. This right is in its nature an unalienable right. It is unalienable, because the opinions of men, depending only on the evidence contemplated by their own minds cannot follow the dictates of other men: It is unalienable also, because what is here a right towards men, is a duty towards the Creator. It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage and such only as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent, both in order of time and in degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governour of the Universe: And if a member of Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign. We maintain therefore that in matters of Religion, no man’s right is abridged by the institution of Civil Society and that Religion is wholly exempt from its cognizance. True it is, that no other rule exists, by which any question which may divide a Society, can be ultimately determined, but the will of the majority; but it is also true that the majority may trespass on the rights of the minority. 2. Because Religion be exempt from the authority of the Society at large, still less can it be subject to that of the Legislative Body. The latter are but the creatures and vicegerents of the former. Their jurisdiction is both derivative and limited: it is limited with regard to the co-ordinate departments, more necessarily is it limited with regard to the constituents. The preservation of a free Government requires not merely, that the metes and bounds which separate each department of power be invariably maintained; but more especially that neither of them be suffered to overleap the great Barrier which defends the rights of the people. The Rulers who are guilty of such an encroachment, exceed the commission from which they derive their authority, and are Tyrants. The People who submit to it are governed by laws made neither by themselves nor by an authority derived from them, and are slaves. 3. Because it is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. We hold this prudent jealousy to be the first duty of Citizens, and one of the noblest characteristics of the late Revolution. The free men of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. They saw all the consequences in the principle, and they avoided the consequences by denying the principle. We revere this lesson too much soon to forget it. Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects? that the same authority which can force a citizen to contribute three pence only of his property for the support of any one establishment, may force him to conform to any other establishment in all cases whatsoever? 4. Because the Bill violates the equality which ought to be the basis of every law, and which is more indispensable, in proportion as the validity or expediency of any law is more liable to be impeached. If all men are by nature equally free and independent, all men are to be considered as entering into Society on equal conditions; as relinquishing no more, and therefore retaining no less, one than another, of their natural rights. Above all are they to be considered as retaining an equal title to the free exercise of Religion according to the dictates of Conscience. Whilst we assert for ourselves a freedom to embrace, to profess and to observe the Religion which we believe to be of divine origin, we cannot deny an equal freedom to those whose minds have not yet yielded to the evidence which has convinced us. If this freedom be abused, it is an offense against God, not against man: To God, therefore, not to man, must an account of it be rendered. As the Bill violates equality by subjecting some to peculiar burdens, so it violates the same principle, by granting to others peculiar exemptions. Are the Quakers and Menonists the only sects who think a compulsive support of their Religions unnecessary and unwarrantable? can their piety alone be entrusted with the care of public worship? Ought their Religions to be endowed above all others with extraordinary privileges by which proselytes may be enticed from all others? We think too favorably of the justice and good sense of these denonimations to believe that they either covet pre-eminences over their fellow citizens or that they will be seduced by them from the common opposition to the measure. 5. Because the Bill implies either that the Civil Magistrate is a competent Judge of Religious Truth; or that he may employ Religion as an engine of Civil policy. The first is an arrogant pretension falsified by the contradictory opinions of Rulers in all ages, and throughout the world: the second an unhallowed perversion of the means of salvation. 6. Because the establishment proposed by the Bill is not requisite for the support of the Christian Religion. To say that it is, is a contradiction to the Christian Religion itself, for every page of it disavows a dependence on the powers of this world: it is a contradiction to fact; for it is known that this Religion both existed and flourished, not only without the support of human laws, but in spite of every opposition from them, and not only during the period of miraculous aid, but long after it had been left to its own evidence and the ordinary care of Providence. Nay, it is a contradiction in terms; for a Religion not invented by human policy, must have pre-existed and been supported, before it was established by human policy. It is moreover to weaken in those who profess this Religion a pious confidence in its innate excellence and the patronage of its Author; and to foster in those who still reject it, a suspicion that its friends are too conscious of its fallacies to trust it to its own merits. 7. Because experience witnesseth that eccelsiastical establishments, instead of maintaining the purity and efficacy of Religion, have had a contrary operation. During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What have been its fruits? More or less in all places, pride and indolence in the Clergy, ignorance and servility in the laity, in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution. Enquire of the Teachers of Christianity for the ages in which it appeared in its greatest lustre; those of every sect, point to the ages prior to its incorporation with Civil policy. Propose a restoration of this primitive State in which its Teachers depended on the voluntary rewards of their flocks, many of them predict its downfall. On which Side ought their testimony to have greatest weight, when for or when against their interest? 8. Because the establishment in question is not necessary for the support of Civil Government. If it be urged as necessary for the support of Civil Government only as it is a means of supporting Religion, and it be not necessary for the latter purpose, it cannot be necessary for the former. If Religion be not within the cognizance of Civil Government how can its legal establishment be necessary to Civil Government? What influence in fact have ecclesiastical establishments had on Civil Society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the Civil authority; in many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny: in no instance have they been seen the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty, may have found an established Clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just Government instituted to secure & perpetuate it needs them not. Such a Government will be best supported by protecting every Citizen in the enjoyment of his Religion with the same equal hand which protects his person and his property; by neither invading the equal rights of any Sect, nor suffering any Sect to invade those of another. 9. Because the proposed establishment is a departure from the generous policy, which, offering an Asylum to the persecuted and oppressed of every Nation and Religion, promised a lustre to our country, and an accession to the number of its citizens. What a melancholy mark is the Bill of sudden degeneracy? Instead of holding forth an Asylum to the persecuted, it is itself a signal of persecution. It degrades from the equal rank of Citizens all those whose opinions in Religion do not bend to those of the Legislative authority. Distant as it may be in its present form from the Inquisition, it differs from it only in degree. The one is the first step, the other the last in the career of intolerance. The magnanimous sufferer under this cruel scourge in foreign Regions, must view the Bill as a Beacon on our Coast, warning him to seek some other haven, where liberty and philanthropy in their due extent, may offer a more certain response from his Troubles. 10. Because it will have a like tendency to banish our Citizens. The allurements presented by other situations are every day thinning their number. To superadd a fresh motive to emigration by revoking the liberty which they now enjoy, would be the same species of folly which has dishonoured and depopulated flourishing kingdoms 11. Because it will destroy that moderation and harmony which the forbearance of our laws to intermeddle with Religion has produced among its several sects. Torrents of blood have been split in the old world, by vain attempts of the secular arm, to extinguish Religious discord, by proscribing all difference in Religious opinion. Time has at length revealed the true remedy. Every relaxation of narrow and rigorous policy, wherever it has been tried, has been found to assauge the disease. The American Theatre has exhibited proofs that equal and compleat liberty, if it does not wholly eradicate it, sufficiently destroys its malignant influence on the health and prosperity of the State. If with the salutary effects of this system under our own eyes, we begin to contract the bounds of Religious freedom, we know no name that will too severely reproach our folly. At least let warning be taken at the first fruits of the threatened innovation. The very appearance of the Bill has transformed that Christian forbearance, love and charity, which of late mutually prevailed, into animosities and jelousies, which may not soon be appeased. What mischiefs may not be dreaded, should this enemy to the public quiet be armed with the force of a law? 12. Because the policy of the Bill is adverse to the diffusion of the light of Christianity. The first wish of those who enjoy this precious gift ought to be that it may be imparted to the whole race of mankind. Compare the number of those who have as yet received it with the number still remaining under the dominion of false Religions; and how small is the former! Does the policy of the Bill tend to lessen the disproportion? No; it at once discourages those who are strangers to the light of revelation from coming into the Region of it; and countenances by example the nations who continue in darkness, in shutting out those who might convey it to them. Instead of levelling as far as possible, every obstacle to the victorious progress of Truth, the Bill with an ignoble and unchristian timidity would circumscribe it with a wall of defence against the encroachments of error. 13. Because attempts to enforce by legal sanctions, acts obnoxious to go great a proportion of Citizens, tend to enervate the laws in general, and to slacken the bands of Society. If it be difficult to execute any law which is not generally deemed necessary or salutary, what must be the case, where it is deemed invalid and dangerous? And what may be the effect of so striking an example of impotency in the Government, on its general authority? 14. Because a measure of such singular magnitude and delicacy ought not to be imposed, without the clearest evidence that it is called for by a majority of citizens, and no satisfactory method is yet proposed by which the voice of the majority in this case may be determined, or its influence secured. The people of the respective counties are indeed requested to signify their opinion respecting the adoption of the Bill to the next Session of Assembly. But the representatives or of the Counties will be that of the people. Our hope is that neither of the former will, after due consideration, espouse the dangerous principle of the Bill. Should the event disappoint us, it will still leave us in full confidence, that a fair appeal to the latter will reverse the sentence against our liberties. 15. Because finally, the equal right of every citizen to the free exercise of his Religion according to the dictates of conscience is held by the same tenure with all our other rights. If we recur to its origin, it is equally the gift of nature; if we weigh its importance, it cannot be less dear to us; if we consult the Declaration of those rights which pertain to the good people of Virginia, as the basis and foundation of Government, it is enumerated with equal solemnity, or rather studied emphasis. Either the, we must say, that the Will of the Legislature is the only measure of their authority; and that in the plenitude of this authority, they may sweep away all our fundamental rights; or, that they are bound to leave this particular right untouched and sacred: Either we must say, that they may controul the freedom of the press, may abolish the Trial by Jury, may swallow up the Executive and Judiciary Powers of the State; nay that they may despoil us of our very right of suffrage, and erect themselves into an independent and hereditary Assembly or, we must say, that they have no authority to enact into the law the Bill under consideration. We the Subscribers say, that the General Assembly of this Commonwealth have no such authority: And that no effort may be omitted on our part against so dangerous an usurpation, we oppose to it, this remonstrance; earnestly praying, as we are in duty bound, that the Supreme Lawgiver of the Universe, by illuminating those to whom it is addressed, may on the one hand, turn their Councils from every act which would affront his holy prerogative, or violate the trust committed to them: and on the other, guide them into every measure which may be worthy of his [blessing, may re]dound to their own praise, and may establish more firmly the liberties, the prosperity and the happiness of the Commonwealth.

The 2019 BSC Annual Conference will be held at the University of Lincoln.
The conference will explore the potential prospects for Criminology to ‘bridge the gap’ between academic criminology and public discourse. It will engage with important questions about the role and value of Criminology during a time of conflict and divergence and hopes to provide meaningful reflections on the political realities of community, conflict and justice. The conference seeks to examine how criminologists can find and use their voice to articulate for collective good in an insecure world.
Taking place in 2019, the conference will explore what it means to conceptualise Criminology as a civic enterprise and address how criminologists might address issues of power, marginalisation, intersectionality and justice in the 21st Century.
We are offering a number of postgraduate bursaries to attend this year’s conference.
Each bursary will cover the full conference fee for one PhD student, and accommodation for three nights (2-4 July inclusive).
A letter of support from your PhD supervisor on institutional headed paper. This should also confirm that you are a registered PhD student and indicate your year of study.
Please make it clear in the subject line that it is a bursary application form.

People were born with different physical characteristics in their bodies. With regards to feet considerations, you may be blessed (or cursed) to have a flat foot. In accordance with this aspect of biological uniqueness, the best running shoes for flat feet should be used for optimum comfort and convenience. What is a flat foot? Having a flat foot can sometimes be a frustration in searching for the appropriate accessory, like shoes. A flat foot is characterized by your foot print looking like a blob contoured in the general shape of a foot. You can easily check this using a footprint on a piece of paper.
Also, physically, you may observe that there is almost no curve going inward from your toe to your heel. Another significant characteristic is that when you press firmly on any surface, your foot seems to spread out. What shoes to use? Shoes are generally created to provide protection to a person’s feet. However, even though most of the commercially available shoes are using soft and shape shifting materials, a specific pair of shoes should be used for flat-footed people. Usually, when a person has flat feet, they are also considered to be an overpronator.
It is a condition when the foot rolls inward while running. That is why the appropriate shoes should be used. The most appropriate shoes for flat feet are the ones that are equipped with high stability properties as well as with motion control materials. Also, shoes with firm mid-soles are far the most efficient types. These factors reduce the capability of your flat foot to roll over in specific areas, thus making your walking or running more comfortable. You should avoid shoes that are highly curved in inward soles for these types may reduce your stability and compress your foot painfully. Since running shoes were manufactured based on the activities of runners, they are equipped with padding and cushion materials for greater flexibility. You won’t need shoes that have multiple layers of padding since this will apply pressure to your flat feet, thus making it very uncomfortable to use. You can just use running shoes that have at least a single layer of comfort pads but are not too curved. There are some health problems that you may have if you do not use running shoes ideal for flat footed individuals.
For example, if you tend to run long distances with an inappropriate shoe type, you may experience instability from the flat panels of your feet towards the upper portion of the legs. These conditions may cause knee and leg injuries while running. Also, your balance capability is compromised, leading to an uncontrollable body movement while in motion. If you are going to purchase a pair of running shoes, you can search over the basic items sold in the market. But, you should always bear in mind that you might need to sacrifice style and brand in order to make sure that you have the best running shoes for flat feet. Although this may seem to be a little frustrating, you should always consider the health factor of using them. You may ask for assistance to get you the right model and brand of shoes for flat feet.

When you own your own DJ business, work never ends. There are always more calls to make, more emails to answer and more items in your in-box to sort through. Your to-do list never stops growing.
But getting away from it all can also give you a new perspective on work and life that inspires you to make positive changes. If your budget doesn’t allow a fullblown vacation, go on a “stay-cation.” This means staying close to home and doing what makes you happy.
Taking breaks from work actually makes you more productive than working nonstop because it gives you time and space to live more fully and find out what makes you happiest. Some of the insights you get during breaks may change the way you live and work, making both your DJ business and your life better.

Volcanic ‘super eruptions’ have had potentially devastating effects on human societies through their influence on global climate. The “year without summer” following the Tambora eruption in 1815, for instance, led to widespread famines in Europe and North America, and the very bad summer of 1816 inspired Mary Shelley to write the novel Frankenstein during her rainy holidays in Switzerland. Ancient cities such as Pompeii in Italy and Akrotiri on the island of Santorini were buried by volcanic eruptions. It is also believed that the Toba super eruption at around 74,500 years before present led to a substantial reduction in the human population to only a few thousand individuals. Finally, I was even personally affected by the eruption of Evjafjallajökull in 2010 when all flights to Europe were cancelled and I was stranded in Saudi Arabia. This event might explain my personal interest in the nature and timing of volcanic eruptions.
Reconstructing volcanic activity is not an easy task. To date, ice cores, lake, and marine sediments have all been used as primary sources of information for these eruptions. Unfortunately many of these archives are both poorly dated, with low chronological resolution, and have limitations on the exact type of past climate information that is recorded. Results of our pilot studies suggest that variations in sulphur, bromine and arsenic in precisely-dated stalagmites can be used to trace regional volcanic activity, such as the famous Minoan eruption of Thera at around 1621 BC. To trace volcanic eruptions in stalagmites from Turkey and China, we performed new measurements at the Diamond Light Source near Reading in April this year.
Performing these measurements at Diamond is a truly unforgettable experience as the scale of this machine is truly mind-blowing, particularly in comparison to our labs here in Reading. For the technical freaks among us, the Diamond Light Source generates a light 10 billion times brighter that the sun by accelerating electrons to near light speed (http://www.diamond.ac.uk/Home/About/How-Diamond-Works.html). This bright beam is then directed off into laboratories also known as “beamlines” were the light is then used to study all kinds of materials, including stalagmite calcite. For those not interested in technical details, this is a gigantic microscope that allows you to study molecules and even atoms.
Inside the Diamond Light Source. The yellow boxes are individual laboratories known as beamlines (D. Fleitmann).
The SAGES team, consisting of PhD-student Sarah Jones, Dr. Stuart Black and myself, started our experiments on a Friday morning using beamline I-18. After mounting one of our samples onto a sample carrier, we entered the so-called experimental hutch (see picture) to set up the experiments. To start the measurements we had to leave the hutch and close the main door.
In the control cabin, (see picture) we defined the sampling track to measure trace elements at a resolution of only 2 micrometres over a distance of 3 centimetres, the entire scan took approximately 15 hours. During this time at least one member of the team was present to control the measurements. After three exhausting days with very little sleep, we managed to complete all of our experiments successfully, and to conduct several hundred thousand measurements. The following numbers may give you an idea about the scale of our experiments. We’ve been using the 500 meter long Diamond Light Source to generate a beam of only 2.5 micrometres (at least for our experimental set up). A 10 cm long stalagmite from China covering almost 3000 years was measured in just 2 days and a weekly resolution could be achieved. The weight of the stalagmite was around 0.500 kg and we were able to detect and date the Toba super eruption, which released approximately 7 x 1015 kg of magma. We’ve been able to detect and date approximately 30 volcanic eruptions in just 3 days and nights. I had only 6 hours of sleep during these three days and consumed approximately 40 cups of coffee to stay awake. Why did we do this? Well, to develop a very innovative approach to date major volcanic eruptions and to publish at least 3 articles in peer-reviewed international journals. I can’t wait to go back to run more samples!

As a paleoclimatologist I am working on a variety of climate archives, including speleothems (stalagmites, flowstones), lacustrine sediments, spring carbonates and corals. The ultimate goal of my research is to construct precisely-dated and highly-resolved time series that provide new insights into climatic and environmental processes over a variety of timescales, ranging from seasonal to glacial/interglacial cycles. One particular aspect of my current and future research is to develop Holocene records that can provide information on climatic and environmental changes in unprecedented detail. Such records are crucial for interpreting archaeological findings and societal changes. It is therefore not surprising that my research interests and experience span a wide range of topics from paleoclimate, geochemistry, meteorology to archaeology and climate modelling. Because of the strong interdisciplinary nature of my research, I have developed a rich network of national and international collaborations.

Until recently, I had been dating a wonderful girl for 11 months, 3 weeks, and 4 days (at least as far as I can figure).
Have you ever heard that love is a drug? That’s truer than I knew. It is both frustrating to realize how attached you can become to another person, and yet also liberating to share your life with someone who genuinely wants to take part in it. Not for any reason we can justify or merit we can earn, but just for us. It is simply because we are theirs. Love is blind in its reckless abandon.
There’s a great mystery in relationships, isn’t there? I don’t yet understand them. Why is it that we have deep, cavernous holes in our spirits? They are the kind of vacuums that ache for others, for community, in the chance hopes that our isolation will forever be sated. Finally. At rest.
It’s a scary proposition, to succumb to vulnerability. To surrender your will to another, to tend to their pain over your own, to think of their needs more highly than yours; these are not our nature. But because of that hole in our souls, it is our need, if not our nature. Why else, if the Creator had not wanted it so?
But want and desire are not enough. The timing is not always up to us. I’ll never comprehend why those who want companionship the most don’t find it. Still for others, sometimes love fails. Sometimes relationships whither.
And it stings. Like a gnarled skinned knee, and big salty globs of hyperventilation. But oddly… I don’t regret a second of it. Honestly. I loved, and I lost. And I am alive. And the morning comes, and with it the sun. And if I never walk hand-in-hand again, I will have the memory of having done that once, for 11 months, 3 weeks, and 4 days.
Deep inside of me, there is an alter ego that wants very much to be alone forever. That self has reasoned that I would be better off to never feel the pain of loss, that loneliness is a smaller price to pay for the lack of effort. It is hard for me to share my burdens in a community of fellow wanderers. Bear with me as I stumble back to my feet. Better yet, give me a hand, will you?
i don’t really know you, but i’m praying for you too.
I may or may not have told you this before but I’m really sorry about your recent loss. James and I talked about it on the way to Constantine in the snowstorm after I had read his post about not knowing the right thing to say in these situations. As hard as it is and as much as it hurts to be in any sort of relationships with our fellow human beings it is so much better than the alternative. If God hadn’t created us with that craving for companionship we’d be in a right mess! Think of how it would be if we didn’t have that need for relationships to balance out the baser, more selfish desires. We’d be a mess. I’m glad you’re on the road to healing and talking(writing) about it will definitely help. Hopefully when you come here in March I can at least meet you and say ‘hi’ since I’ve heard about you for years. I don’t know how to end this….hang in there seems trite as does ‘I’m praying for you’, but I am and as such I’ll leave it at that.
I’m glad you are sharing your heart with us. It will help. We are here for you! Time is a great healer. I wish it were faster than that. You have people who care and will walk with you until the sun shines again.
Rob, I encourage you to read the Psalms. I think they will bring you hope. Read Psalm 34. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Rob, I know the voice of that isolated alter ego from my own life, too. Let me assure you that isolation is an addictive drug as well — I found myself wearing the pain of my lonliness like a shield, using it to keep back the friends who were trying to break through to love and care for me. Consider that the whole history of salvation is of God calling out again and again for a wayward people to return to Him. He, more than anyone else, has certainly known the pain of broken relationships, and is more qualified than any other to meet us in our hurt and carry us through. God Himself will restore your spirit, and He will use the love of friends around you to encourage you along the way.
Tears welled up as I read this. I understand how the deeper inner self wants to “protect” you from future hurt. But the sun does shine, you will move through this and you have learned much.
Try having God be the One who always fills your heart. He will never hurt you. Then when your earthly relationships form, dissolve or whatever course they take, you will not feel quite as much heartache and lonliness.
God created us first for a relationship with Him, secondly for others. There is a reason for this. We sometimes forget the order, but in His divine wisdom He protects us if only we could just follow Him.
Just remember Psalm 23 …when we walk “through” the valley… we don’t get stuck there, we go through it.
You are special and loved by many.
I think mom has a picture of you and me in our tree house out in Lone Jack. I need to get that from her to post.
I was just surfing on short lives and came across your writing.
Can I have your permission to use it in my writing and sermons?
It is so personal, but yet so well-expressed.

BOSTON – The recovering economy and looming retirement of the baby boomers are making this a very good year to be a college senior looking for a job after graduation. Recruiters, career counselors and students say the fall recruiting season has been the most active since the dot.com boom.
College hiring is expected to increase 13 percent over last year, according to a new survey from National Association of Colleges and Employers (search). Seven out of 10 employers said they expected to increase salary offers to new college grads, according to the survey released late last week, with an average increase of 3.7 percent.
Accountants are again finding increased demand for their services — thanks to the wave of post-Enron regulations — but theirs is just one of several hot fields. Technology companies, investment banks and consulting firms appear to be picking up the pace, as do some defense contractors and even smaller businesses that haven't traditionally recruited on campus.
"I haven't been to school in the last three weeks because of my interview schedule," said Eric Golden, a senior at Bentley College (search), a business-oriented school in the Boston suburb of Waltham. He feels lucky to be graduating this year.
Friends with similar credentials who graduated earlier often ended up taking positions that weren't their top choices — "just to have a job," Golden said. He's been juggling about a dozen interviews with companies including money managers, investment banks and General Electric (GE).
Four in five employers called the job market for new grads good, very good or excellent; last year fewer than two in five did.
Michigan State University's (search) College Employment Research Institute will release a report Thursday that director Phil Gardner said will show overall campus hiring is up as much as 20 percent this year, depending on the region.
Experts say hiring still isn't approaching the intensity of the late 1990s. A population boom among college students has tightened competition, and employers remain gun-shy about big bonuses.
Some engineers are still having a tough time, in part because so much manufacturing has moved off shore. And many businesses, notably financial services, learned to get by with leaner staffs during the downturn.
But there is clear momentum. At California State University, Fullerton (search), the number of companies at a fall career fair was up about 40 percent from last year; at the University of Florida (search), the number of recruiting companies is up as much as 15 percent.
And at the University of Notre Dame (search) in South Bend, Ind., interviews are up roughly 30 percent and the school had to step in, requiring recruiters to allow students to mull job offers until at least Nov. 24. For the first time since the dot.com boom, competition was fierce enough that companies were pushing students for immediate decisions on their offers.
Don Brezinski, executive director of corporate relations at Bentley, said "we're seeing companies that, instead of looking to hire one or two, have openings of a dozen. It's when you have the big companies going really deep, then you know you're hitting stride with employment recovery."
Experts say companies are hiring to handle new work but also making up for years of conservatism — and anticipating an exodus of retiring baby boomers.
"We've seen employers that have cut back the last few years looking around the office saying, 'We've got this new work. Who's going to do the job?'" said Lee Svete, Notre Dame's director of career services.
Accounting remains one of the best backgrounds to have for a job-hunting senior. PriceWaterhouseCoopers plans to hire about 3,100 people off U.S. college campuses this year, up almost 19 percent from last year. Ernst & Young, another big accounting firm, plans to increase hiring about 30 percent this year and bring on 4,000 new college grads. Jim Case, director of the career center at Cal State-Fullerton, says regional and local accounting firms are hiring, too.
Finance and — yet again — nursing skills are also in demand, and job hunters willing to move have a big advantage. Computer science jobs are also returning after the tech slump, said Carol Lyons, dean of the career services department at Boston's Northeastern University (search), though other fields, like journalism, are still tough.
But even liberal arts majors need not despair, said Wayne Wallace, director of the career resource center at the University of Florida.
"'Any major' is the No. 1 demand," he said. "We have plenty of employers that say if you are a college grad and want to ... learn our business, we will take you from that point on."

This sweet little newborn baby girl came to my Midland Newborn Studio at 9 days old for her newborn session, but photos with her siblings were a little later than usual, due to a pesky little cold that her sisters shared with each other. And even though I always recommend an earlier session date with newborns, if possible, it didn’t stop us from getting beautiful family photos and sibling memories. These girls were so full of love for each other, for their parents, and for the new baby in their family – they could not contain all the kisses and hugs, and just general sweetness! Sessions like this inspire me as a mom, and moments like this are so rewarding as a newborn and family photographer. I mean, really, nothing could have been sweeter or more perfect!
My job specializing in Newborn and Maternity Photography is simply amazing. I am blessed by these perfect family photo moments during every session! It’s pretty much what I live for, work wise.

We think there are two reasons for the delay in uptake of polyolefins in 3D printing. The first was discussed in part one of this blog; the second is that, because 3D printing is still a novel technology, polymer manufacturers are only now starting to take it seriously.
The result of the polyolefin industry’s ‘commodity’ mind-set is that the large companies that make the polymers are rarely the first to begin exploring new polymer processing technologies like 3D printing. They’re simply considered too small to be worth their investment unless there is a quick and easy selling opportunity for an existing single grade of their materials.
As discussed in the first part of this blog, existing single polymer grades do not easily suit the application of 3D printing. Forefront Filament has spent 18 months (on top of its 20+ years in the polyolefin industry) working to combine specific grades, from the thousands of individual polyolefin grades available, in order to bring all of the benefits of polyolefins to the world of 3D printing. Our hope is that we can bring better solutions to the table, as the technology continues to move out of the spare bedroom and onto the production line.
Give our filaments a try, and let us know what you think.

Discover Dance! is a popular noon hour series offering informative and inspiring shows by BC-based dance companies. Taking place at the Scotiabank Dance Centre downtown, they feature a different dance company every month, combining performance, question-and-answer sessions with the artists, and even audience participation. JC Dance Co. was featured on March 12th, giving the audience a 1 hour snapshot of what ballroom dancing is all about.
Because it was a one hour production, we had to come up with 45 minutes of show material, allowing the remaining 15 minutes for what they call ‘artist talkback’. This was a challenging feat, because as most dancers know, a ballroom show is typically only 3-4 minutes long. Therefore, we had to get a variety of dancers in various formats to participate. We organized the production to include a simple display of social dancing (with partner changes); some team performances by our JC Adult Team, as well as our Ladies Only Team; 2 Pro-Am shows by Dimitri Mikulich (one of our colleagues at the Broadway Ballroom) & his student Diane Feige, as well as 2 Professional showcases by Joel and myself. It all worked out well, with of course, a great narrative by my hubby Joel (which is his expertise, as you can see in the picture below, as he soaks up the spotlight during rehearsal).
The only little worry of the day… or should I say two little worries… was what to do with the kids? The kids had to come. Their two parents were busy directing, rehearsing and performing for the show; one of their grandmas was also in the show; the other grandma was out of town; one grandpa was at work and the other grandpa had a medical appointment! I figured that we would just keep them backstage the whole time, as we had plenty of dance crew members to look out for them.
The only hiccup was: “But Mommy, I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY” want to watch the show!!! How could I deny them the opportunity to watch what we had tirelessly been preparing for for the past few weeks, and that our lives revolve around day in and day out? Needless to say, the kids watched the show. They stood in the wings on the stage and mimicked the Bollywood arms, and clapped and cheered along with the audience. There was only one time that I saw Michaela try to pull the curtain aside and look out into the audience, but after getting a talking to by me, she didn’t do it again!
At the end of the show during the talkback, when all participating dancers stepped out onto the stage to answer audience questions, the two of them ended up running out to the stage to join us. Samantha was a bit shy, but Michaela (not surprisingly) was jumping up and down like a rabbit, as if she was outside at the playground! It’s always funny to see how the 2 girls have such very different personalities.
It was a fun show. It took a lot of time to organize and create such a production, but it was well worth it. JC Dance Co. received a nice little review from Ed Farolan, founding editor of Review Vancouver.
Watch out for the Discover Dance! upcoming shows… Arts Umbrella on April 23 and Aché Brasil on May 14, Thursdays at noon.

It's sometimes tricky to truly revel in our daily lives. But it helps to balance daily play with the celebration of life's major milestones. Lighten up, laugh, and play with friends, family, colleagues, even strangers on a train. Daily play is dress rehearsal for life's major celebrations - a birthday in Central Park, Thanksgiving in Atlanta, New Year's in Paris, or a wedding in Detroit. Whatever you revel in, we hope you'll be inspired by the revelry here on POCKETKNIFE.life.

Day 1 of CES 2015 had us stopping at Thermaltake to take a look at what they've got coming up for 2015. Thermaltake offers a broad spectrum of products and had a whole bunch of products to show off.
Thermaltake has been one of the biggest names in computer cases for quite some time now and this year they are showing off their new X-Series cases which include the X1, the X2, and the X9. All 3 of these new case are modular and allow customers to basically design their systems however they want and the sky is the limit. The X-Series cases also give you a ton of room for watercooling products (which Thermaltake also has lots of) and if you need even more room you can easily stack these cases together for even more room. As far as modular designs go, the X-Series are easily the most customizable cases we've seen. The MSRP's range from $169 USD for the X9 down to $99 USD for the X1.
Thermaltake also has their lineup of Tt eSPORTS products that are aimed at the gaming community. We've had the opportunity over the years to review quite a few products from this lineup and this year at CES Thermaltake is showing off quite a few updated products from Tt eSPORTS. Highlights include the new Poseidon Z Plus+ keyboard, Shock 7.1 3D headsets, and the updated Theron Plus+ gaming mouse.

WinS3fs is a filesystem for Windows written in C#, allowing access to Amazon S3 Storage. It implements a local virtual SMB server \\s3 to allow access to Amazon S3 buckets.allow the files copied to S3 be usable from the Internet via: bucketname.s3.amazonaws.com, allowing easy file collaboration, and web site creation.
In order to use S3 as a drive, you need to FUSE a bucket to a particular folder in your VM. Once that is done, the folder behaves just like any other folder from the standpoint of file management, but the storage occurs in the S3 bucket.
ABOUT SHARING: While S3 is made to be attached to many servers, it's probably best if those servers share both codebase and database so that conflicts do not occur in file management. Setting up a shared database is very easy with AWS, but is a topic for another day.
ABOUT TIMING: Most of this can occur on a live site, without interrupting anything. I wouldn't recommend it, though. You're installing software and messing with the file system. There's always the chance for conflicts to occur. So it's better to do this before the site launches, when you can afford to turn off or interrupt the web server. At a minimum, you could spin up a dev copy of the EC2 instance and experiment there before doing it on the live server. Then you could take the minimum required time on the live server, during a time of day when there isn't much traffic, and reduce your stress levels a bit.
Create a new S3 bucket. Name it something specific to the project and use. For instance, "example_upload_folder". Make sure the name is all in lower case and contains no spaces or other special characters. FUSE requires the name to be in lower case. Don't worry about creating permissions on the bucket.
Each bucket should have its own user created for programmatic access via FUSE. Create a user in the AWS IAM. As with the bucket, name it something specific to the project and use. For instance, "example_upload_usr". Copy the secret access key and public access key for later.
There are four steps to be taken.
Mount / activate the FUSE.
Run through the FUSE installation instructions. I used the SVN checkout method to download the application. I installed on Ubuntu (like most of our VMs), but because I was using YUM as my installer, I actually used the Fedora / CentOS instructions for installing dependancies. Make sure you install all of the dependancies before trying to build FUSE. I didn't encounter any problems with the installed packages, though there's always the chance that you install something and it damages your VM.
Save and exit. Make sure the file permissions are sufficient to allow your web server access.
These will allow the FUSE to be mounted with the correct ownership and permissions.
If you don't get any errors, you're good to go.
You have two options. You can activate the mount in a straightforward, forceful way. Or you can be a fancy pro and mount completely seamlessly. If your site isn't live yet, I'd recommend the first option.
It's probably a good idea to stop the web server before continuing (apache or nginx, etc). That way, your web app isn't fighting against you as dependent folders are changed.
You'll want to make sure that the target folder does not already exist in your file system. If it does, rename it to something else temporarily. After the FUSE gets mounted, you can copy those files back into their proper location.
Restart your VM. This can take a few minutes. The FUSE should now be mounted. Your VM will probably show you a list of active mounts when you reconnect to it. You can test the mount by dropping a file into it and logging into the S3 bucket via the AWS console.
Move your target folder and symlink to it from the target folder's original location.
Instead of FUSEing directly to the target folder, FUSE to a folder nearby.
Test the FUSEd mount at your leisure.
Copy the (moved) target folder's contents into the FUSE folder.
Alter the symlink to point to the FUSE folder.
If you do it this way, you'll want to be confident that your fstab works as expected. The best way to gain this confidence is to spin up a replica EC2 instance and see if the FUSE automatically mounts as expected.
