Snow Storm 2009

Wednesday, December 23rd 2009. 8:00am. We are watching the weather. Our terrific weather crew is confused by the approaching storm. They never get confused. They can’t decide if we (Oklahoma City) will get any snow at all, or possibly 4 to 6 inches. By noon, they have decided we will have snow for Christmas. They’re just not sure how much. Around 3:00pm Wed. the wind starts to pick up and the temperatures start to go down. By 6:00pm, the warnings begin. Depending on how far south the storm out west dives, will determine how bad it will get here. ( I think it dove). Around 8:45pm The weatherman breaks into programming for “Official Warnings” a tornado in the southern part of the state. Expect thunderstorms, rain & snow mix turning to snow by 6:00am Christmas Eve morning. And should total 4 – 6 inches. ( guess again ) . I went to The National Weather Service link and checked for their maps and warnings.. Took a picture & posted it. Not worried about anything yet. Just some rain and snow.

A Happy Christmas Eve True Story.

The misty rain started around 4:00am Christmas Eve morning. By 6:00am it turned to wind driven mist and sleet. By 6:30am it was wind driven crushed ice that stings when it hits your skin. The wind is howling. Ice is building up on the roads. Somewhere around 9 or 10am the fine snow mist begins. By the noon weather, the Weathermen are telling everyone to go home and stay home.Its going to get bad.! Its snowing alot now. and blowing so hard its difficult to see.. The wind freezes your eyes. (must wear eye protection). I go out side to video an hours accumulation and the sound of the wind
.
Within an hour everything starts to fall apart EXCEPT the storm. I’ve watched it shut down one stretch of highway after another. 3:00pm EVERYthing in town is closing. Cars are abandoned on every road. ALL police agencies are saying “Go Home and stay home.. The storm has produced a curl and eased up for half an hour like the eye of a hurricane.(we take the dogs out) 9 more hours are predicted. By 6:00pm They are requesting people stay “where ever” they are ! Don’t go out in this !. Don’t travel unless you HAVE to!!!
This is when my daughter’s husband starts to scrape the 1 ½ inch of ice plus 3+ inches of snow off the car. He is a “have to”, he wears a badge. He works in security. (be nice, he’s a good one). They work when everyone else doesn’t. and he NEVER calls in.
Now it gets fun… NOT!!!
He left the house at 7:15pm. To drive 5 miles and replace an officer. At 8:47pm He is only 1/3rd of the way there, he calls home to let us know he is returning home. They other officer is hopelessly snowed in at the post . They decide to switch shifts. 9:35pm , he calls, he is a mile from home, stuck in a drift. Been trying to dig out by hand for half an hour (with a bad heart) . I convince him to stay in car and let me find help. There is no help. EVERYTHING is shut down.
20+ minutes later I have called everyone we know and every possible number. Nothing. I’m on the phone with a friend “brain storming” when I notice my daughter at the front door with her coat on sliding her ID into her sock and zipping her boot. I pulled the phone away from my face as She said “ I’ve got my cell phone, I’m taking the shovel and going to get him”. She was out the door before I could stand up.
I kid you not.!!! I hung up and called him to let him know to watch for her. He freaks out ( I’ll spare you that conversation) I can only beg him to get the navy blue blanket out of the trunk if he is going to walk. He is on foot heading for her now. . This is when I loose it and start crying. At this point I called the police so they would know to look for the bodies. (that IS what I was thinking) .
The officer wants to know if she is an adult? Yes!
Is she dressed appropriately? It’s a blizzard…. in Okla…. define appropriate., Yes, As warm as we got!
This one killed me. Is she of sound mind?
No sane person goes out in this !
Well, I could easily drag this out a few more paragraphs., This is edited. He was further away than he said. On a different road than he said. . A police officer stops her to verify it was her and drives on leaving her walking. A large man in a light blanket is walking towards her. She thinks its him. (light is not navy blue). I’ve got a phone to each ear. Her cell to my cell and his cell to the house. (too much techno for me) It was him. He got the other blanket. The pink one. (that made me laugh Mr Macho in a pink blanket in a blizzard – THAT I wish I had a picture of.!!!). 11:35pm they came in the front door. Thank you Jesus !!!!!
THAT is a Merry Christmas. The lack of extra money and small gifts this year suddenly didn’t matter. We knew we were going to have the best Christmas.
Among all the tragedy in this city that night…. there was triumph. and True Love.
Christmas morning a neighbor helped us retrieve the car. He had to work Christmas day. So we are celebrating today, Saturday. My Granddaughter doesn’t know the difference. It works!
I hope each of you had a Great Christmas.
We had and are having THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER.!.

Big Hugs to all.!

Picture 365 / 365.365
skins for your cell phone

Image by c r i s
A year ago I started the Flickr 365 project. The premise is simple. Take and post a photo at least once a day. There are variations on the theme, but the main idea to get people who like photography, in the habit of taking photos.

I’m not going to lie, I fudged a little here and there. Maybe I was unavailable to post a photo, so it had to wait til the next day. Sometimes I used my cell phone. I’m just glad I made it a year.

I feel that I did learn a few things. This may sound vain, but I don’t intend it that way. I was never really comfortable in my own skin. Nothing like hearing compliments on your photography to cure that. No matter how serious or jokey they are. I learned that while I love to smile, I can do a serious look very well. Always a good self esteem booster when feeling down.

I noticed that I love to cook even more. I truly enjoyed when I could take a photo of a dish I’d prepared and pair it with the recipe. That is great fun for me! I need to do MORE of that.

I think my photography hit a few bumps. I don’t claim to be any kind of Ansel Adams. I just liked to take photos of things that caught me eye. The only problem was that before doing this project I didn’t take my camera with me wherever I went. Granted I used my cell phone camera quite a bit, but you get the idea.

I also noticed that I took a few more pics that necessary. I might go back and pair it down to a few true 365s. But for now you get a few bonus extras.

I had 28 pics with Mark in them.
I had 57 pics that had something to do with food.
I had 32 pics that were taken with my camera phone.

I don’t intend to stop taking photos. Completing this project was a big deal. I’m glad I did it. I’ll have to see what other challenges await!

The 500 Calorie HCG Diet plan: Will Growing The Calorie Count Of The HCG Diet regime Nevertheless Produce Results With Fat Loss?


(PRWEB) October 14, 2011

Correct Healthy Products, a nutrition business who has been providing their version of the HCG Diet plan for practically three years has had time to experiment with the normal 500 calorie diet plan.

…..item 2)….aish.com….Me, a Crook?….A librarian had the chutzpah to insinuate I’m a thief.

June 24, 2011 / 22 Sivan 5771

by Emuna Braverman

www.aish.com/f/mom/Me_a_Crook.html?utm_source=mimi_aish_c…

I visited my local library last week. My family and I are frequently library users and very excited that our community’s habits recently convinced the city to close the library on Saturdays and open it on Sundays instead!

But as thrilled as I am with that response that is not what sparked this column. I noticed that a book I had returned (actually a book on CD; my secret to getting on the treadmill every day!) was marked overdue. Something was wrong.

I am a familiar figure to the librarian at the checkout desk. But this problem fell under the responsibilities of the reference library with whom I had no prior relationship.

I explained the situation and while she called the library branch where the book belonged, I went (at her suggestion) to search the shelves to see if it had perhaps been misfiled at this branch instead. Sure enough, there it was. I was thrilled by how easily I found it. Mystery solved, problem cleared up, CD’s now on their way to their proper home.

Everybody happy – well, not quite.

“Since we don’t know when the book was returned,” the librarian informed me, “you still have to pay the fine.” I will confess up front that the fine was minimal (.40) and it was, as they say, the principle of the thing. I was puzzled and I (politely) said so. “I’m confused; if it’s your mistake, why do I have to pay the fine?”

“It’s not our mistake,” she asserted. “But I’ll reduce the fine by half.”

I wasn’t going to argue about 70 cents. I paid and left. But I was still puzzled. If it wasn’t their fault, how exactly did the book make it to the shelf? Who was to blame?

I certainly couldn’t have done it. Then I realized that was the only other possible explanation. Was she really suggesting that, in an effort to save .40 I had walked in with the CD’s, deliberately stuck them on the wrong shelf and then gone to her with my falsified sob story? I couldn’t believe it. I’m not that creative and frankly such an action would never have occurred to me. And even if, in some wild, diabolical moment it did, I certainly would never have acted on it.

Is her assumption that the library patrons are dishonest? Are guilty until proven otherwise? Has that been borne out by experience? Is it an appropriately cautious attitude or just a cynical mistrusting one? Is that reflective of library policy or her individual views of humanity?

Either way I was troubled and saddened by the experience. I love going to the library. I put tremendous value on the public service they provide. And I hate to think that the librarians view the users as deceitful criminals as opposed to enthusiastic readers.

The head librarian really just needs to train her employees to be more careful when reshelving the books. And she needs to train herself to give others the benefit of the doubt. What’s the point of being surrounded by all those books if you aren’t learning the most valuable of life’s lessons from them?

…..item 3)…..website….. aish.com ….Climbing the Ladder….Is life really fair?

by Rabbi Nechemia Coopersmith

www.aish.com/sp/pg/Climbing_the_Ladder.html

The other day my son Yehuda, who has Down syndrome, was called a "retard" by a younger boy.

Thankfully this is a rare occurrence, and at the Jerusalem cheder where he is mainstreamed, his second grade classmates more or less accept him. But the name-calling still stung me.

Yehuda on the other hand, wasn’t fazed one bit; at age 7 he doesn’t yet realize he’s different than others. He just called him "retard" back!

But that time is going to come – if not this year, then probably next, when the disparity between him and his classmates will be even greater – and it makes me wonder: How is it fair that God created him with such disadvantages?

How is it fair that God created my son with such disadvantages?

My wife and I are extremely grateful that Yehuda is very high functioning – he speaks two languages, knows how to read, he’s working on his writing skills, his comprehension is decent and he’s got a great sense of humor and kindness streak that make him very endearing – but there is an obvious gap. His speech isn’t perfectly clear, he doesn’t have the coordination (yet) to ride a bike without training wheels, some of his social skills are off (there’s only so many times one can watch him do his "magic trick" or listen to the same joke) and there’s no way he can keep up entirely with the second grade workload. And this inequality is only going to grow.

Related Article: Raising Yehuda

The "retard" epithet magnified the reality of the differences between Yehuda and other kids his age which I still futilely try to minimize. And it stealthily conjured up that question: Where’s the fairness in all of this?

One doesn’t need to have a mentally challenged or handicapped child to provoke the issue. Why does God make one child a naturally gifted student who excels at anything she puts her mind to, and another child an adventure seeker who struggles scholastically? Why does God make some people beautiful and slim and others less so? Why are some people born in the lap of luxury with all the advantages of western society and others are born in poverty in third world countries?

The question in various forms plagues most people. Who hasn’t woken up in the morning at one time or another bemoaning life’s inequalities: why did he get the promotion and not me? Why does she have the perfect husband, the perfect house, the perfect kids and not me? Why was I born with this skin, this hair, this nose?

When we measure our success by comparing ourselves to others we are guaranteed a life filled with discontent and unhappiness. There will always be someone who has more advantages than you. This is the calculus of unfairness.

Personal success has absolutely nothing to do with anyone else. It should be measured against oneself; how much am I actualizing my potential? The yardstick for fulfillment and meaning is based on how many rungs of my ladder I have climbed, not how far ahead I am compared to others.

God creates each person with a unique mission in life, with the challenge to bring out his inner strengths and wrestle with his set of weaknesses. On that score, whatever deck of cards we were dealt, we are all equal.

Comparing Yehuda’s success to others reduces fulfillment to external results rather than the struggle inherent in life itself.

Comparing Yehuda’s success to others negates his soul’s uniqueness and masks the primary spiritual challenge in exerting his free will. It reduces fulfillment to external results (which are ultimately not in our control) rather than the struggle inherent in life itself ("According to the effort is the reward" Ethics of the Fathers 5:26). Yehuda will never be able to fully keep up. So what? He isn’t the same as others, just as others are not the same as him. It only becomes ‘unfair’ when I make the irrelevant comparison to others.

The wisdom in this perspective may be obvious, but because we live in a material world, it’s a real struggle to stop comparing ourselves to others and live with the awareness that our life’s purpose is to strive to bring out our inner potential, whatever it may be.

Sitting in the sukkah gives us the opportunity to reinforce the idea that the basis for our real self worth is internal, not external. It’s the great equalizer. We all leave our comfortable homes, whether they’re big or small, and live for a week in a hut with the stars overhead, recognizing how fleeting the physical world truly is. "Vanity of vanities, all is vanity," we read in Ecclesiastes during the holiday. After attaining the piercing clarity of what’s truly important in life during the intense High Holiday period, we have renewed strength and focus to translate our inspired vision of ourselves into action.

It is no wonder that the holiday of Sukkot is called "zman simchateinu" – the time of our joy. Living in the shadow of God’s embrace, we realize life is fair after all.

This texture was made using software specially designed to aid in seamless texture creation. Some of the programs I use are Photoshop, Illustrator, Filter Forge, Genetica, Image Synth, Alien Skin, Topaz Labs, Imagelys, and a Wacom tablet.

Churchill Club Top 10 Tech Trends Debate

Image by jurvetson
I just got back from the Churchill Club’s 13th Annual Top 10 Tech Trends Debate (site).

Curt Carlson, CEO of SRI, presented their trends from the podium, which are meant to be “provocative, plausible, debatable, and that it will be clear within the next 1-3 years whether or not they will actually become trends.”

Then the panelists debated them. Speaking is Aneesh Chopra, CTO of the U.S., and smirking to his left is Paul Saffo, and then Ajay Senkut from Clarium, then me.

Here are SRI’s 2011 Top 10 Tech Trends [and my votes]:

Trend 1. Age Before Beauty. Technology is designed for—and disproportionately used by—the young. But the young are getting fewer. The big market will be older people. The aging generation has grown up with, and is comfortable with, most technology—but not with today’s latest technology products. Technology product designers will discover the Baby Boomer’s technology comfort zone and will leverage it in the design of new devices. One example today is the Jitterbug cell phone with a large keypad for easy dialing and powerful speakers for clear sound. The trend is for Baby Boomers to dictate the technology products of the future.

[I voted YES, it’s an important and underserved market, but for tech products, they are not the early adopters. The key issue is age-inspired entrepreneurship. How can we get the entrepreneurial mind focused on this important market?]

Trend 2. The Doctor Is In. Some of our political leaders say that we have "the best medical care system in the world". Think what it must be like in the rest of the world! There are many problems, but one is the high cost of delivering expert advice. With the development of practical virtual personal assistants, powered by artificial intelligence and pervasive low-cost sensors, “the doctor will be in”—online—for people around the world. Instead of the current Web paradigm: “fill out this form, and we’ll show you information about what might be ailing you”, this will be true diagnosis—supporting, and in some cases replacing—human medical practitioners. We were sending X-rays to India to be read; now India is connecting to doctors here for diagnosis in India. We see the idea in websites that now offer online videoconference interaction with a doctor. The next step is automation. The trend is toward complete automation: a combination of artificial intelligence, the Internet, and very low-cost medical instrumentation to provide high-quality diagnostics and advice—including answering patient questions—online to a worldwide audience.

[NO. Most doctor check-ups and diagnoses will still need to be conducted in-person (blood tests, physical exams, etc). Sensor technology can’t completely replace human medical practitioners in the near future. Once we have the physical interface (people for now), then the networking and AI capabilities can engage, bringing specialist reactions to locally collected data. The real near-term trend in point-of-care is the adoption of iPads/phones connected to cloud services like ePocrates and Athenahealth and soon EMRs.]

Trend 3. Made for Me. Manufacturing is undergoing a revolution. It is becoming technically and economically possible to create products that are unique to the specific needs of individuals. For example, a cell phone that has only the hardware you need to support the features you want—making it lighter, thinner, more efficient, much cheaper, and easier to use. This level of customization is being made possible by converging technical advances: new 3D printing technology is well documented, and networked micro-robotics is following. 3D printing now includes applications in jewelry, industrial design, and dentistry. While all of us may not be good product designers, we have different needs, and we know what we want. The trend is toward practical, one-off production of physical goods in widely distributed micro-factories: the ultimate customization of products. The trend is toward practical, one-off production of physical goods in widely distributed micro-factories: the ultimate customization of products.

[NO. Personalization is happening just fine at the software level. The UI skins and app code is changeable at zero incremental cost. Code permeates outward into the various vessels we build for it. The iPhone. Soon, the car (e.g. Tesla Sedan). Even the electrical circuits (when using an FPGA). This will extend naturally to biological code, with DNA synthesis costs plummeting (but that will likely stay centralized in BioFabs for the next 3 years. When it comes to building custom physical things, the cost and design challenges relegate it to prototyping, tinkering and hacks. Too many people have a difficult time in 3D content creation. The problem is the 2D interfaces of mouse and screen. Perhaps a multitouch interface to digital clay could help, where the polygons snap to fit after the form is molded by hand.]

Trend 4. Pay Me Now. Information about our personal behavior and characteristics is exploited regularly for commercial purposes, often returning little or no value to us, and sometimes without our knowledge. This knowledge is becoming a key asset and a major competitive advantage for the companies that gather it. Think of your supermarket club card. These knowledge-gatherers will need to get smarter and more aggressive in convincing us to share our information with them and not with their competitors. If TV advertisers could know who the viewers are, the value of the commercials would go up enormously. The trend is technology and business models based on attracting consumers to share large amounts of information exclusively with service providers.

[YES, but it’s nothing new. Amazon makes more on merchandising than product sales margin. And, certain companies are getting better and better at acquiring customer information and personalizing offerings specifically to these customers. RichRelevance provides this for ecommerce (driving 25% of all e-commerce on Black Friday). Across all those vendors, the average lift from personalizing the shopping experience: 15% increase in overall sales and 8% increase in long-term profitability. But, simply being explicit and transparent to the consumer about the source of the data can increase the effectiveness of targeted programs by up to 100% (e.g., saying “Because you bought this product and other consumers who bought it also bought this other product" yielded a 100% increase in product recommendation effectiveness in numerous A/B tests). Social graph is incredibly valuable as a marketing tool.]

Trend 5. Rosie, At Last. We’ve been waiting a long time for robots to live in and run our homes, like Rosie in the Jetsons’ household. It’s happening a little now: robots are finally starting to leave the manufacturing floor and enter people’s homes, offices, and highways. Robots can climb walls, fly, and run. We all know the Roomba for cleaning floors—and now there’s the Verro for your pool. Real-time vision and other sensors, and affordable precise manipulation, are enabling robots to assist in our care, drive our cars, and protect our homes and property. We need to broaden our view of robots and the forms they will take—think of a self-loading robot-compliant dishwasher or a self-protecting house. The trend is robots becoming embedded in our environments, and taking advantage of the cloud, to understand and fulfill our needs.

[NO. Not in 3 years. Wanting it badly does not make it so. But I just love that Google RoboCar. Robots are not leaving the factory floor – that’s where the opportunity for newer robots and even humanoid robots will begin. There is plenty of factory work still to be automated. Rodney Brooks of MIT thinks they can be cheaper than the cheapest outsourced labor. So the robots are coming, to the factory and the roads to start, and then the home.]

Trend 6. Social, Really. The rise of social networks is well documented, but they’re not really social networks. They’re a mix of friends, strangers, organizations, hucksters—it’s more like walking through a rowdy crowd in Times Square at night with a group of friends. There is a growing need for social networks that reflect the fundamental nature of human relationships: known identities, mutual trust, controlled levels of intimacy, and boundaries of shared information. The trend is the rise of true social networks, designed to maintain real, respectful relationships online.

[YES. The ambient intimacy of Facebook is leading to some startling statistics on fB evidence reuse by divorce lawyers (80%) and employment rejections (70%). There are differing approaches to solve this problem: Altly’s alternative networks with partioning and control, Jildy’s better filtering and auto-segmentation, and Path’s 50 friend limit.]

Trend 7. In-Your-Face Augmented Reality. With ever-cheaper computation and advances in computer vision technology, augmented reality is becoming practical, even in mobile devices. We will move beyond expensive telepresence environments and virtual reality games to fully immersive environments—in the office, on the factory floor, in medical care facilities, and in new entertainment venues. I once did an experiment where a person came into a room and sat down at a desk against a large, 3D, high-definition TV display. The projected image showed a room with a similar desk up against the screen. The person would put on 3D glasses, and then a projected person would enter and sit down at the other table. After talking for 5 to 10 minutes, the projected person would stand up and put their hand out. Most of the time, the first person would also stand up and put their hand into the screen—they had quickly adapted and forgotten that the other person was not in the room. Augmented reality will become indistinguishable from reality. The trend is an enchanted world— The trend is hyper-resolution augmented reality and hyper-accurate artificial people and objects that fundamentally enhance people’s experience of the world.

[NO, lenticular screens are too expensive and 3D glasses are a pain in the cortex. Augmented reality with iPhones is great, and pragmatic, but not a top 10 trend IMHO]

Trend 8. Engineering by Biologists.
Biologists and engineers are different kinds of people—unless they are working on synthetic biology. We know about genetically engineered foods and creatures, such as gold fish in multiple other colors. Next we’ll have biologically engineered circuits and devices. Evolution has created adaptive processing and system resiliency that is much more advanced than anything we’ve been able to design. We are learning how to tap into that natural expertise, designing devices using the mechanisms of biology. We have already seen simple biological circuits in the laboratory. The trend is practical, engineered artifacts, devices, and computers based on biology rather than just on silicon.

[YES, and NO because it was so badly mangled as a trend. For the next few years, these approaches will be used for fuels and chemicals and materials processing because they lend themselves to a 3D fluid medium. Then 2D self-assembling monolayers. And eventually chips , starting with memory and sensor arrays long before heterogeneous logic. And processes of biology will be an inspiration throughout (evolution, self-assembly, etc.). Having made predictions along these themes for about a decade now, the wording of this one frustrated me]

Trend 9. ‘Tis a Gift to be Simple. Cyber attacks are ever more frequent and effective. Most attacks exploit holes that are inevitable given the complexity of the software products we use every day. Cyber researchers really understand this. To avoid these vulnerabilities, some cyber researchers are beginning to use only simple infrastructure and applications that are throwbacks to the computing world of two decades ago. As simplicity is shown to be an effective approach for avoiding attack, it will become the guiding principle of software design. The trend is cyber defense through widespread adoption of simple, low-feature software for consumers and businesses.

[No. I understand the advantages of being open, and of heterogencity of code (to avoid monoculture collapse), but we have long ago left the domain of simple. Yes, Internet transport protocols won via simplicity. The presentation layer, not so much. If you want dumb pipes, you need smart edges, and smart edges can be hacked. Graham Spencer gave a great talk at SFI: the trend towards transport simplicity (e.g. dumb pipes) and "intelligence in the edges" led to mixing code and data, which in turn led to all kinds of XSS-like attacks. Drive-by downloading (enabled by XSS) is the most popular vehicle for delivering malware these days.]

Trend 10. Reverse Innovation. Mobile communication is proliferating at an astonishing rate in developing countries as price-points drop and wireless infrastructure improves. As developing countries leapfrog the need for physical infrastructure and brokers, using mobile apps to conduct micro-scale business and to improve quality of life, they are innovating new applications. The developing world is quickly becoming the largest market we’ve ever seen—for mobile computing and much more. The trend is for developing countries to turn around the flow of innovation: Silicon Valley will begin to learn more from them about innovative applications than they need to learn from us about the underlying technology.

[YES, globalization is a megatrend still in the making. The mobile markets are clearly China, India and Korea, with app layer innovation increasingly originating there. Not completely of course, but we have a lot to learn from the early-adopter economies.]
