More Beautiful for Having Been Broken

What's Going On?

Last weekend, my partner, Rosa, and I traveled with our oldest grandson, Jacob, and our Chihuahua/Shitzu mix dog, Ruby, to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, to see the Nicole Conn's new film, More Beautiful for Having Been Broken. When we made plans to go, we didn't know that Nicole would be there for the Out At the Movies Film Festival where the movie was shown. I can't even tell you how over the moon I was at the thought I would finally get to meet Nicole in person. And, it was even more wonderful of an experience than I expected. Nicole is a very warm and kind person, and she was excited about meeting me too. We'd been conversing online for years. I have been a part of the group promoting this movie ever since Nicole first started putting it together, and it was going by the title of Nesting Doll.

We also got to meet Lissa Forehan, the movie's producer. She was super nice. I'm glad Nicole has wonderful people like Lissa helping her get this movie in front of audiences around the world.

I've been telling people about Nicole's films ever since I first saw Claire of the Moon more than 24 years ago. As far as I am concerned, she is the very best lesbian filmmaker, independent or otherwise. Rosa has even called her the Steven Spielberg of lesbian films.

My current project, besides reworking my next adult lesbian romance under the working title of Nature of Love, is getting More Beautiful for Having Been Broken screened in Bowling Green, Kentucky, or the surrounding area. I've sent an email to a professor at Western Kentucky University about having the film shown there, and I'm on the search for other places and groups that might be interested in showing the film.

I'm also going to be working with other Nicole Conn fans to get More Beautiful for Having Been Broken on Netflix. Nicole's film, A Perfect Ending is already available on Netflix. So if you haven't seen that yet, I hope you'll check it out. All of her other films are available on Amazon. You can even get the entire romance collection in a set that is very reasonably priced.

My Review of More Beautiful for Having Been Broken

Although this film is about three women whose lives intersect at a lakeside resort, I found the movie to be more about the special needs boy, Freddie. His contagious positivity and charism draws out the very best in people and brings them together.

Here's my review of the film:

Kintsukuroi is the Japenese word that means; more beautiful for having been broken. A beautiful word with a beautiful meaning for a beautiful movie. I'm not sure where to begin my review of Nicole Conn's new film More Beautiful for Having Been Broken: the gorgeous women, the adorable little boy, the beautiful scenery, cinematography, choreography, or the heartwarming story. All of these were interwoven into an expertly directed film that will warm your soul.

I think I'll start with the little boy, Freddie, played by Cale Ferrin. Besides being incredibly cute, this little man grabs you by your heartstrings and never lets you go. You will think about Freddie and how well Cale portrayed him long after the last credits of the movie have played. His strength and fierce determination will make you wish you had him as a champion in your life. He makes us realize how precious every minute we share with the people in our life is, and why it’s so important to let love be what guides us through life.

Freddie’s vibrant charism makes people want to be in his company. Even the stoic McKenzie, played by Zoe Ventoura can’t resist Freddie, despite her best efforts to ignore him. Freddie’s ability to see to the core of everything around him gives him the sense that McKenzie needs to be loved. She is as drawn to him as he is to her by the magical forces that bring people into our lives when we need them. This is definitely the case for these two people who become friends even though Freddie is a young boy with special needs, and McKenzie is a disheartened FBI agent. Two very different people from two very different worlds who find each other at the right time.

The ability to see the deeper meaning of things also helps Freddie see a connection between McKenzie and his overprotective mother, Samantha, played by Kayla Radomski. Both McKenzie and Samatha have built thick walls to protect themselves. The two women’s love for Freddie ultimately brings them together, even though their histories try to tear them apart.

Nicole’s films are usually about love stories between two women, but they always include more than just the romance. That is definitely true of this film. While the story contains the romance between two women, that is not the defining theme of the movie. This movie is about the power of love. How it can overcome fear and bring people together with an enduring bond that will last a lifetime.

All of the actors in this film were wonderful, including Nicole’s daughter, Gabrielle Baba-Conn. I felt the actors really connected to their roles, and that brought out really great performances. The cinematography captures the beauty of the landscape where the movie was filmed. There are some really fantastic sunset scenes that just take your breath away.

Kayla Radomski not only plays Freddie’s devoted mother, but she also choreographed the dance scenes in the movie. The art of ballet is interwoven throughout the film. It accentuates the love between Freddie and his mother, and between Samantha and McKenzie.

This film has already won several awards at film festivals around the country, including the following awards given by the International Independent Film Awards:

Best Actor - Cale Ferrin
Best Actress - Zoe Ventoura
Best Supporting Actress - Kayla Radomski
Best Choreography - Kayla Radomski
Best Narration for a Feature - Henry J Carr
Best Original Score - Nami Melamud
Best Editing - Nicole Conn & Dave Eichhorn

Where Is The Fall

What's going on!
It's not as quite as bad here in southern Kentucky as the picture above, but it feels like it. It's been weeks since we've had rain and the average temperatures have been in the low to mid-90s. It's fall for Christ's sake. Where are my cool mornings? It's supposed to be in the 50s in the mornings and high 70s in the afternoons. Our days have been starting in the upper 70s. It's just crazy. It may or may not be global warming. We missed the record high of 98 degrees for today, set back in 1953, by one degree.

For those of you going through menopause, or perimenopause, you know what I mean when I say this heat is killing me. I can't be outside for more than a few minutes. That's really bad for someone who is naturally an outside person. But, I've been sick this last week, so I wasn't going outside anyway. One of the joys of working with the public (I'm a librarian) is that you get exposed to everything that's going around because people don't have enough sense to stay home when they are sick.

I have gotten the print book of Avalanche of Love closer to being available. Just a little tweaking to do. It's a bit bigger than I usually make my print books, but the print's also larger for those of us who struggle with tiny print. Hopefully, that will be done by the end of the week.

Facebook Promise
For those of you who follow me on Facebook, you might have seen a post where I was talking about the trouble I was having with the first chapter of this story I'm reworking. I started writing it last year and have more than 78,000 words of it written, but I wasn't happy with it. It's had a couple of different working titles, including "By the Ocean." That should give you a hint as to where it takes place. Well, part of the story takes place by the ocean.

Anyway, I promised I post the reworked first chapter. I got some really great advice from other writers, and I put it to good use. So I'm going to post that chapter in the blog post.

What I'm Reading
I'm still working on Courtney Stevens' "Dress Codes For Small Towns." It's not the type of story I would typically read, but I've recently met Courtney and decided to check out her work. It's a cute story.

I'm almost done with "Moonlight Avenue" by Gerri Hill. This a mystery with a little romance in it. I've had a hard time putting it down. Work and life keep getting in my way, but I expect to have it finished tomorrow.

Here's the Chapter!
I'm posting the chapter below. I hope you'll visit my Facebook page and let me know what you think.

Chapter One

The wind whipped Paige’s short dark brown hair across her face as the ocean breeze picked up with the impending storm. The local weatherman said the storm should be rolling in by midmorning. Paige was glad she had time to get her morning run in because it was supposed to rain for the next three days. That would regulate her run to her treadmill. She would much rather run along the beach. It was more strenuous but more relaxing.

As a bank manager for a busy branch of a national chain, Paige needed as much relaxation as she could get. Some days were simple, and some days were horrific. Yesterday had been the latter kind of day. She’d had one angry customer that she feared she was going to have to call the police to have them removed from the bank. Days like that made her wish she didn’t work with the public.

Paige adjusted her earbuds and pulled her phone out to turn the volume up on one of her favorite Nickleback songs. Picking up her pace, Paige ran to the hard-rocking beat of the music hoping to shake off the negative mood that was still plaguing her since yesterday’s ugly customer left the bank.

Up ahead on the beach, Paige saw a woman lying at the edge of the surf. The long auburn hair made her think of the woman she’d seen sitting on the beach staring out at the water the past four mornings. Paige was pretty sure the woman was a tourist. She seemed very melancholy. Her expression was always pensive, even when she had turned to look at Paige the first morning she had been out here there had been no happy good morning greeting that most tourists usually gave, especially on their first day of vacation.

Alarm bells went off in Paige’s head as the woman didn’t move and allowed the waves to splash over her. What if she was dead? Paige changed direction and started running toward the woman. She was still a few minutes away when she saw the woman’s hands move, and she began to push herself up on her elbows.

A massive wave was making its way toward the woman and would probably knock her back down if she didn’t move. “Hey!” Paige called out.

The woman probably couldn’t hear her with all the waves crashing around her. Paige called out again, but it was too late. The wave hit the woman and knocked her flat on her back, hitting her head hard on the packed sand. The woman tried to get up, but another wave crashed into her throwing her off balance. She fell face-first in the water. The wave pushed her down, and then pulled her further into the water as the surf pulled back into the ocean

Paige ripped her earbuds out and was about to throw her phone on the beach. She paused, deciding she’d rather strip off her shorts and keep her new iPhone safe in her pocket. She was wearing black bikini underwear and a sports bra, so it wasn’t like she was naked if she tossed the shorts.

After discarding her shorts, and pitching them high up on the beach away from the water, Paige ran into the surf and grabbed the woman around her waist.

An older man appeared next to her and helped her pull the unconscious woman up the beach and away from the water. An older woman that Paige assumed was the man’s wife, approached them with her phone to her ear. Paige could hear her talking to a 911 dispatcher, telling them where they were and what had happened.

Paige’s years as a lifeguard kicked in and she began to examine the woman and check her vitals. The woman wasn’t breathing. Paige made sure nothing was blocking the airway and then started giving the woman mouth to mouth resuscitation. It only took a few attempts before the woman sucked in a breath and started to cough. Paige rolled her to her side so she could spit up the water in her lungs. She noted the taste of tequila on the woman’s breath. She’d probably been drinking and passed out on the beach.

When the woman rolled onto her back, Paige noticed a large knot on her forehead. She must have hit her head hard on a shell or something when the wave was tossing her around.

Pushing the woman’s long auburn hair away from her face, Paige confirmed that she was indeed the woman who had been out here the past four mornings. The woman opened her eyes and stared up at Paige with large hazel eyes.

“Are you a mermaid?” the woman asked in a rasping voice.

Paige chuckled. “No, I’m not a mermaid.”

“You’re very pretty,” the woman said and coughed again.

“Thank you,” Paige said and looked up at the older man who was kneeling next to them.

“I think she might be going into shock,” he said and nodded in the woman’s direction.

He was probably right, Paige thought when she looked down at the woman’s eyes. Her pupils were not the same size, and she was starting to shiver. “Do you happen to have a blanket or towel?” Paige asked the older woman.

“No,” the woman shook her head. “We were just out for a walk.”

Paige noted their attire. Both were dressed in white shorts, short sleeves, shirts, and barefoot. The woman was holding both of their sandals in the hand that was not holding her phone. The woman’s clothes were pressed and pristine white, where the man’s were now soaked and covered in light brown sand.

The man took off his shirt and put it over the woman’s upper body. “It’s a little wet, but it’s better than nothing,” he said.

Paige nodded. “Thank you.” She turned to the older woman who still had the ambulance dispatch on the phone and was telling them about their concern that the woman was going into shock. “Do they have an estimated time of arrival?”

The older woman asked the dispatcher about the ETA just as they heard sirens approaching and Paige saw the beach patrol’s truck racing toward them. “Thank God.” She turned back to the woman they had pulled from the water. She had closed her eyes. Paige gave her a gentle shake. “Ma’am? What’s your name?”

Those large hazel eyes opened and stared at Paige. Finally, the woman rasped, “Mermaid.”

“I’m not a mermaid. What’s your name?” Paige gave her another shake when she tried to close her eyes again.

“My sister won’t believe I met a mermaid.”

“What’s your sister’s name?” Paige asked thinking that the sister must either be here on vacation with this woman or live here.

“Ann,” the woman said and tried to close her eyes again.

Paige shook her again. “What’s your sister’s last name? Does she live here?”

“Cavanaugh. Birch street I think,” she said.

Benny Garcia, one the beach patrolman, walked up to their group. “What you got here, Paige?”

Paige knew Benny from her lifeguard days. “She was lying at the edge of the surf when a couple of big waves came in. She tried to get it up, but the water took her down. I was on my morning run when I saw her lying there and became concerned when she wasn’t moving. I’d started to head in her direction and called out to try to warn her about the wave headed toward her, but she couldn’t hear me.” Paige pointed to the older man. “This gentleman helped me pull her out of the water.”

The older man said, “My wife and I were walking on the beach when we heard this young lady calling out to the woman on the beach. We saw the waves take her down when she tried to get up. I ran out to help.”

Benny was standing over Paige and the man as they both gave the auburn-haired woman gentle shakes to keep her awake.

“My head hurts,” the woman said when Paige shook her again.

“I bet,” Paige said and turned to Benny. “There’s alcohol on her breath. I think she may have passed out on the beach.”

“I didn’t pass out,” the woman said, bringing Paige’s eyes back to her. “Just wanted to see a pretty sunrise.” The woman’s eyes rolled into the back of her head and lost consciousness.

“Oh shit,” Paige said and tried to wake the woman again. “Ma’am! Wake up!”

The sirens drown out anything Paige was saying as the ambulance raced up to their location on the packed sand. The EMTs hopped out of the ambulance and started getting the equipment out of the ambulance.

Paige and the older man moved out of the EMTs’ way. A police car had also arrived and a firetruck. The firemen helped the EMTs load the woman on a transfer board and put her on the ambulance while the two policemen took Paige and the older couple’s statement.

The couple, Walter and Helen Bamberger, were visiting from Ohio. They, too, had seen this woman on the beach for the past four mornings. She’d arrived the day after they did and they suspected she was staying at one of the three condo buildings that shared this stretch of the beach.

“She said her sister’s name is Ann Cavanaugh and she lives on Birch Street?” one of the officers asked Paige.

“That was my understanding,” Paige said. “She never did give me her name.”

“Okay. We’ll search for an Ann Cavanaugh in this area,” the policeman said.

“She’d been drinking. I could taste the tequila when I gave her mouth to mouth,” Paige said.

The officer looked down at Paige’s underwear. “Do you always run like that?”

Paige blushed. “No. My shorts are over there,” she said, pointing to the blue pile of cloth on the ground. She went and retrieved her shorts, putting them on before returning the officers.

The older couple had already started walking back to their rented condo. The ambulance was gone, but Benny was talking with the policemen when Paige rejoined them. “Did you need anything more from me?”

“No, Ms. Cummings,” the officer who had done most of the talking said. “We appreciate all the information you were able to get. Hopefully, we’ll be able to find the woman’s sister and reunite their family.”

The two officers walked backed to their patrol car leaving Paige and Benny alone. “I need to get going,” Paige said, looking at the time on her phone. “I’m going to be late to work.”

“But you’re the boss,” Benny said with a laugh.

Paige rolled her eyes at him. “Yes, and I’m supposed to lead by example.”

“Well, you did a good thing this morning. I’m sure your employees will understand,” Benny said and waved as he headed back to his patrol truck. “Call me, and we’ll go out for a beer sometime.”

“Will do,” Paige said and started jogging back in the direction toward her house. She only had forty-five minutes to shower and get to work. Thankfully, she didn’t have to be there for the bank to open.

Where Does The Time Go

Being Super Busy

I started writing this blog post on July 19th, and here it is September, and I'm just now getting back to finish it. I'm changing things because the original information is outdated.

I spent the summer working on my new young adult lesbian romance, working, and trying to spend time with my grandkids. I have three grandsons who live in Colorado, so I only get to see them during the summer. This summer was so crazy that I didn't get to spend much time with them, which sucks, but it's the way things go sometimes.

The grandkids my partner, Rosa and I are raising are back in school and doing lots of school stuff. My oldest grandson, Jacob, turned 15 this summer. I can't believe it. He's almost 6 feet tall and in marching band. My oldest granddaughter, Jazmyn, is 13 going on 23. Just praying all of us survive her being a teenager. My other grandson, Julian, that Rosa and I are raising is 6, and we are homeschooling him. Socialization has not been a good thing for the other kids, and as crazy as things are in our local schools, we're going to keep him home.

What else is going on?

Today, I wrote "The End" to the story I mentioned earlier. It's a little over 75,000 words that I'm putting on the shelf for a few weeks while I start editing a story that I started last year during NaNoWriMo. If the editing muses are in a good mood, maybe both books will come out before the end of the year.

I still haven't finished making Avalanche of Love available in print. Amazon and I are still at odds about the formatting. Hopefully, things will slow down long enough for me to get the formatting right.

I'm also planning to publish both of the plays that I've written. They are both 10-minute, one scene plays. Last year "Is She or Isn't She" was performed at the Emerald Theater Company in Memphis, Tennessee. This year my play "She's My Sister" didn't get picked to be performed, but that's okay. But, I thought some of my fans might be interested in checking them out. (I wrote that back in July. Still, haven't done it yet.)

I also have a very short story that I hope to publish soon, so keep a watch out for that.

What I'm reading!

I finished Annette Mori's book "Artist Free Zone." It was an enjoyable story. It made me feel sorry for Rosa having to deal with this flaky artist. Thank God she loves me.

I read "Finding You" by Emma Nichols. I really enjoyed this lovely romance that takes place in London and Paris and some other places in western Europe that I'm not very familiar with. (Finished this and the next book in the series "Remember Us." I liked them both a lot. Going to start the third book in that series soon.)

I'm ready Courtney Stevens' book, "Dress Code for Small Towns." It's starting out to be a cute story. I haven't gotten very far, though. I've also got Gerri Hill's "Midnight Avenue" on my shelf to read next.

What's New

I just rejoined Myspace, and I'm going to start creating mixes for my books from the songs that I've listened to a lot while I was writing. Music plays a significant role in my life, and if it does in yours too, you might like to know what songs inspired me during the writing of each book. You'll find a lot of overlap, especially with my romances.

I'm going to stop here to make I get this posted tonight before something happens and I don't get it done. (Waiting on the granddaughter to come home after lying about her ride, going to be one of those nights.)

Consistently Inconsistent

If there's one thing I can say honestly about myself, it's that I'm consistently inconsistent partially because my life is ...

Opportunities in Mexicali for these industries, allow companies to establish both, cost and profit centers.

Food Products

The food industry sector has taken advantage from the strategic location of Mexicali, so as the agricultural valley and their fertile lands. International companies like Kellogg´s Company, Coca Cola Co. and Frito Lay, have established success operations in Mexicali. On the other hand national companies like Bimbo, Barcel and La Moderna have established operations in Mexicali, due to its strategic location considered a platform to attack news markets like the U.S and Asian markets.

Mexicali has 40 electronic related companies established, with manufacturing, MRO and assembly operations. The industry also has a workforce of approximately 22,000 technicians, engineers, among others, and of course strong and effective linkage programs between industry and educational institutions.

Las Vegas hit by terror after mass slaughter: 59 dead and 23 firearms in hotel room

Las Vegas hit by terror after mass slaughter: 59 dead and 23 firearms in hotel room

Chika Mori and Lee Jay Walker

Modern Tokyo Times

It is extremely mind-boggling to non-Americans how a nation can enable anybody to arm themselves to the teeth, with some of the most deadly firearms on this earth. Of course, it is known that many Europeans fled to America in past history in order to escape the brutality of standing armies. However, this is far from allowing individuals to muster a huge arsenal of weapons without having any alarm bells ringing in modern America.

President Donald Trump said the barbaric killer who slaughtered so many innocents in Las Vegas was “a sick man, a demented man.” It is difficult to disagree with Trump. Yet, surely the system of allowing one individual to buy so many military arms is equally “demented?”

The New York Times reports, A lone gunman perched on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino had smashed the windows of his suite with a hammer, taken aim at a crowd of 22,000 people, and committed one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history. Late on Monday, law enforcement officials said they still had no idea what the motive was.”

Currently, it is known that 59 people were killed in the terror attack that hit people in Las Vegas. At the same time, over 500 people remain injured to varying degrees. Hence, the horrendous attack that spread carnage and terror to people attending a music festival is beyond any comprehension.

Equally beyond comprehension, is how one single individual could take 23 firearms into a hotel without any knowledge – or sense of hotel security – to his room, in order for this barbaric killer (name of the evil person isn’t worthy to mention) to fulfill his plans of mass slaughter?

It is known that another 19 firearms have been found at the home of the deranged killer who spread terror to people enjoying a music concert in Las Vegas. Hence, the barbaric killer had at least 42 firearms and other forms of devices to kill. Sheriff Joseph Lombardo of Las Vegas said, additional firearms, some explosives and several thousand rounds of ammo, along with some electronic devices we’re evaluating at this point.”

The debate over the right to carry arms is obviously an internal issue for the people of America. After all, the reasons behind the Constitution supporting individuals to defend themselves against “standing armies,” from a historical point of view, are extremely noble and revolutionary. However, even avid supporters of the Gun Lobby must acknowledge that to tolerate people building up a mass arsenal of weapons – without any red flags being raised – is beyond justification and comprehension. Indeed, individuals need equal Constitutional protection from the power of the central state, and from deranged individuals who can plot mass murder based on a system that is betraying ordinary American citizens.

We share with our earliest ancestors a wish for jewelry and gorgeous objects. Gems, Jewelry and Charms & a lot royal regalia reveal a tradition of self adornment in the application of magic and rituals which have been around for thousands of years. Some of our oldest jewelry has been found in graves 20,000 years old. Much of this consists of shell, bone and ivory necklaces, along with polished stones. We have no idea the significance these objects held for their owners, but in later instances gemstones have been employed as symbols of divine and earthly power, displaying wealth & status. They were believed to protect the wearer. The supplies most widely utilized by the ancients in their jewelry have been stones, polished to a high luster. As time wore on, became valuable gems and semi-precious stones.

Mankind has long been attracted to gemstones given that ancient instances, and archaeologists have found many gemstones that had been formed into jewelry. The prime requisite for a gem was that it should be stunning in the eyes of the beholder. The beauty could be identified in several types, the different colors, even the lack of colour, the brilliance and sparkle and the fire that came from deep within the gem.

Many civilizations regarded gems as miraculous and endowed with effective mysterious effects. Different stones have been endowed with at times overlapping & really different attributes. The Diamond, for instance, was believed to give it really is wearer strength in battle and shield against ghosts and magic. Such beliefs persist in modern occasions. This can be noticed in the practice of wearing a birthstone. In today's occasions ingenious marketing and advertising has installed in folks a great pride in the possession of a uncommon and stunning gemstone.

All through the ages numerous stones became recognized as semi-valuable, which typically indicates any gemstone other than sapphire, emerald, ruby or diamonds. The principal distinction was established that a valuable gemstone was regarded as such for it really is brilliance, beauty, durability and rarity. Exactly where in general a semi-earlier gemstone possessed only 1 or 2 of these qualities.

Even in the earliest use of gemstones the value was established by fantastic beauty or perfection. The brilliance, luster, fire and color all determined the worth & desirability of a gemstone. It was only in a lot more contemporary instances that the hardness of a gemstone became a determining aspect in it is worth. It was measured by a device identified as the "Mohs Scale". In addition to the hardness of a gemstone, the clarity became of excellent issue. At some point stones have been graded on the clarity and regardless of whether the stone had any inclusions and also the size of the inclusions.

It wasn't until more modern day occasions that the study & science of gems, recognized as "Gemology", was established. The grading and worth of a gemstone became much of an anthropological study, as it is a mineralogical 1.

Gemstones since of their remarkable beauty and rarity are significant in helping us understand the history of mankind. The human race has sought to shield itself behind walls of mysticism and superstition reinforced by the spiritual leaders with gems employed as talismans that had been used in mysterious ceremonies and could be effortlessly hidden.

In modern description of "Gemology", is the scientific study of gemstones involving the study of mineralogical fundamentals involving formations, genesis, physical properties, all employed in the identification of gemstones, such as a simple knowledge of structural, crystallographic, chemical and physical characteristics and properties of gems. This combined with the way gemstones are fashioned contemplating the many different cuts, brilliance, fire, and so forth. comprise the location of gemology.

Post OT: Musical Song Moment Similarities
Dear Musicals.Net Posters,

I've been thinking a lot about the musicals "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" (the 1971 Disney movie) and "Carrie" (the 1988 Broadway musical), and I swear that whenever Carrie starts singing that one song ("I'm Not Alone"?....the one where she's dancing around, moving objects with her mind, and singing about the fact that she's finally found a hot guy, etc.), I keep thinking about "Substitutiary Locomotion". Of course, there was a character named "Carrie" in that story, too, so it's easy to make the connection for more than one reason, but it's kind of hilarious, 'cause I keep thinking about how both Carrie and Eglantine danced shoes across the floor during a song! :lol:

If only Carrie could've time-warped, she could've escaped from her town, helped to win WW2, and practiced magic with a brand new family. She also would've had a charming new father and two little siblings! I think that she'd have made a wonderful...."Carrie Browne". 8-)

Thanks in advance for your replies. 8-)

Till Next Time,

I want someone who's the deviant version of Fred MacMurray, David Tomlinson & William Schallert....but who has the looks of guys like Dan Haggerty, Kris Kristofferson & Tom Selleck.

Uncle Bob – “TOLD YOU SO” and actually he did – ‘cus I remember reading this the first time around!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

I Told You So
Alas, a Couple of Bob’s Dire Predictions Have Come True

By Robert X. Cringely

Just over three years ago I wrote a column titled “Cooking the Books: How Clever Accounting Techniques are Used to Make Internet Millionaires.” It explained how telecom companies were using accounting tricks to create revenue where there really was none. Take another look at the column (it’s among the links on the “I Like It” page), and think of Worldcom with its recently revealed $3.7 billion in hidden expenses. Then last August, I wrote a column titled “The Death of TCP/IP: Why the Age of Internet Innocence is Over.” Take a look at that column, too, and think about Microsoft’s just-revealed project called Palladium.

The end is near.

Sometimes I’d rather be wrong, but it’s a no-brainer to guess that accountancy, which has apparently become something of an art form or interpretive dance, could have a dark side. And you’ll never lose money betting for Microsoft and against Microsoft’s competitors and customers.

Let’s concentrate on the Microsoft story. Last August, I wrote of a rumor that Microsoft wanted to replace TCP/IP with a proprietary protocol — a protocol owned by Microsoft — that it would tout as being more secure. Actually, the new protocol would likely be TCP/IP with some of the reserved fields used as pointers to proprietary extensions, quite similar to Vines IP, if you remember that product from Banyan Systems. I called it TCP/MS in the column. How do you push for the acceptance of such a protocol? First, make the old one unworkable by placing millions of exploitable TCP/IP stacks out on the Net, ready-to-use by any teenage sociopath. When the Net slows or crashes, the blame would not be assigned to Microsoft. Then ship the new protocol with every new copy of Windows, and install it with every Windows Update over the Internet. Zero to 100 million copies could happen in less than a year.

This week, Microsoft announced Palladium through an exclusive story in Newsweek written by Steven Levy, who ought to have known better. Palladium is the code name for a Microsoft project to make all Internet communication safer by essentially pasting a digital certificate on every application, message, byte, and machine on the Net, then encrypting the data EVEN INSIDE YOUR COMPUTER PROCESSOR. Palladium compatible hardware (presumably chipsets and motherboards) will come from both AMD and Intel, and the software will, of course, come from Microsoft. That software is what I had dubbed TCP/MS.

The point of all this is simple. It may actually make the Internet somewhat safer. But the real purpose of this stuff, I fear, is to take technology owned by nobody (TCP/IP) and replace it with technology owned by Redmond. That’s taking the Internet and turning it into MSN. Oh, and we’ll all have to buy new computers.

This is diabolical. If Microsoft is successful, Palladium will give Bill Gates a piece of every transaction of any type while at the same time marginalizing the work of any competitor who doesn’t choose to be Palladium-compliant. So much for Linux and Open Source, but it goes even further than that. So much for Apple and the Macintosh. It’s a militarized network architecture only Dick Cheney could love.

Ironically, Microsoft says they will reveal Palladium’s source code, which is little more than a head feint toward the Open Source movement. Nobody at Microsoft is saying anything about giving the ownership of that source code away or of allowing just anyone to change it.

Under Palladium as I understand it, the Internet goes from being ours to being theirs. The very data on your hard drive ceases to be yours because it could self-destruct at any time. We’ll end up paying rent to use our own data!

Can you tell I think this is a bad idea?

What bothers me the most about it is not just that we are being sold a bill of goods by the very outfit responsible for making possible most current Internet security problems. “The world is a fearful place (because we allowed it to be by introducing vulnerable designs followed by clueless security initiatives) so let us fix it for you.” Yeah, right. Yet Palladium has a very real chance of succeeding.

How long until only code signed by Microsoft will be allowed to run on the platform? It seems that Microsoft is trying to implement a system that will enable them, once and for all, to charge game console-like royalties to software developers.

But how will this stop the “I just e-mailed you a virus” problem? How does this stop my personal information being sucked out of my PC using cookies? It won’t. Solving those particular problems is not Palladium’s real purpose, which is to increase Microsoft’s market share. It is a marketing concept that will be sold as the solution to a problem. It won’t really work.

Let’s understand here that not all Microsoft products are bad and many are very good. Those products serve real customer needs and do so with genuine purpose, not marketing artifice. But Palladium isn’t that way at all. This is NOT about making things better for the user. This is about removing the ability for the end user to make decisions about how his or her computer functions. It is an effort by Microsoft to take literal ownership of Internet technology, Microsoft’s “embrace and extend” strategy applied for the Nth time, though on a grander scale than we’ve ever seen before. While there is some doubt that the PC will survive a decade from now as a product category, nobody is suggesting the Internet will do anything but grow and grow over that time. Palladium assures that whatever hardware is running on the network of 10 years from now, it will be generating revenue for Microsoft. There is nothing wrong with Microsoft having a survival strategy, but plenty wrong with presenting it as some big favor they are doing for us and for the world.

What’s saddest about this story is that it could be positive. The world is a dangerous place and finding ways to make people responsible for what they do on the Net is probably good, not bad. I just don’t think we have the right people on the job.

Advanced Practice Providers: Understanding the Heart of the Matter

Physician assistants Shelly Iams and Venice Conley are passionate about their roles as advanced practice providers. Assisting in both cardiac and cardiothoracic surgery at UPMC’s Heart and Vascular Institute, each day offers its fair share of triumphs and trials. As APPs, Iams and Conley both value their specialty because their work is highly motivating, filled with challenge, and extremely rewarding. Check out their thoughts on each professional perk!

Highly Motivating

For APPs, maintaining motivation ensures day-to-day efficiency and helps foster perspective for long-term patient care. Successfully guiding patients through each stage of the recovery process is the ultimate objective!

“Seeing patients walk the hallways post-operatively with our cardiac rehab is definitely motivating,” Conley shares. Keeping this goal in mind inspires her to give her best effort in every situation, no matter the circumstance.

Similarly, Iams says that patient interaction motivates her most! In fact, being able to talk with patients, explaining the ins and outs of the operating room, is one of her favorite aspects of the job. “Since I have many years of experience in the OR, I feel like I can calm their fears,” she explains. Building an atmosphere of trust is a key factor in patient care.

Filled with Challenge

At the Heart and Vascular Institute, APPs gain exposure to numerous cardiac pathologies. Iams comments, “Our physicians operate on the sickest patients — we see and learn a lot!” While some days follow standard routine, other days are fast-paced and hectic – it’s all a part of practicing medicine! No matter what the days hold, it’s important to always have “thick skin,” maintaining professional standards under pressure.

Though being a confident, assertive decision maker is crucial, APPs must know when to ask for assistance. Working as a tight-knit group, Conley says, “Everyone is willing to help out where help is needed — we can really rely on our co-workers!” Despite tough challenges, neither Conley nor Iams regrets choosing this career path. Conley explains, “Though I’ve faced difficult days that have caused me to question my job choice, there are always great cases that show me I’m making a difference!”

Extremely Rewarding

Working with highly respected physicians certainly has its advantages! Known for its cutting-edge innovation, the Heart and Vascular Institute is an awesome place to develop as a health care professional! On a daily basis, APPs gain valuable exposure to amazing technologies relating to cardiac and aortic pathologies. Transcatheter aortic valve replacements and robotic mitrol valve surgeries, two intricately complex surgeries, are regularly performed at this facility.

This being said, it’s incredibly important for employees to maintain a healthy work-life balance!  Iams and Conley work four-day weekly schedules, ten hours per day, allowing them to pursue objectives outside of their work, such as supplementary education, fitness, and spending more time with family.

Iams says, “While I cannot be home with my kids every day, it’s nice to have one day during the week to play mom.”

Allowing employees this scheduling flexibility means that they will be better prepared to focus on work when it counts most. Conley says that working full time, with a husband and two kids, would be difficult, but “working part-time provides the balance I need.”

UPMC’s Heart and Vascular Institute seeks to offer the highest quality cardiovascular care in conjunction with the greatest degree of compassion to all patients and their families. If you want to deliver excellent cardiac care, consider joining our growing team of advanced practice providers. Don’t wait to start making a difference!

A Florida woman who woke up to a stranger sexually assaulting her 36 years ago may finally get justice after DNA helped crack the brutal rape case.

The attack happened on August 22, 1983, in the victim's home in Coral Springs. The woman was in her bedroom about 6 a.m. when a man held a steak knife to her neck, CNN affiliate WPEC reported. When she screamed, he told her to shut up. "I have loved you for months," he told her after the rape.

At the time, the suspect was described as a slender white male with brown hair, a strong cologne and a heavy Southern accent, said Officer Tyler Reik, a spokesman for the Coral Springs Police Department.

DNA collected at the scene was later sent to a crime lab, but the technology available at the time did not identify a suspect, police said Friday.

The case went cold -- until the victim reached out to the police in March after she saw stories of how investigators are using DNA to solve cases.

Investigators reviewing evidence as part of a cold case initiative sent some items to the Broward Sheriff's Office crime lab for processing using updated technology. On June 27, detectives determined a DNA sample from the victim's clothing belonged to convicted criminal Timothy Norris, police said.

Norris, who is serving a federal sentence in West Virginia for armed bank robbery, has been charged with sexual battery with a weapon and is awaiting extradition to Florida.

The 60-year-old has prior arrests for aggravated assault, assault on a female and kidnapping, authorities said.

  2. Hello, sorry for my poor English (you know, French people...) I used different software to get .wav files from flac, mp3 or others. Often, 12keys doesn't consider them as .wav files. I looked at these files, they all had extra tags (other than RIFF, WAVEfmt and data) or a "wrong" WAVEfmt size. I didn't find any software (other than Switch) able to remove these extra tags. Too bad 12keys doesn't do it itself or is not compatible... Any freeware idea ? Otherwise I think I'll write my own piece of VBA ^^ Thanks ^^

  1. I have Video Pad version 6.29, it worked just fine a while back. Now, I added short video clips and pictures, added audio over video and pictures. I saved the project and when I start the Export to video it takes hours to finish. When I play the video back I can see that pictures displayed that should come later in the video, just for a second or two. The sound is ok, but the pictures in the video are not in the sequence and for the length of time I put them into video Pad. I reduced the output quality, but that doesn't help either. Very frustrating. What can I do to solve the problem?

This is a momentous event. John Papa has been working for months on a video course that covers building a JavaScript Application from end-to-end with today’s JS technologies. And he just published it.

Get it here:

It’s free for the next 48 hours (free access ends on Friday, August 31, 2012 at 5pm MDT) so I’m rushing to announce it now. Honestly,even if you miss the 48 hour window, it’s worth subscribing to Pluralsight for at least a month just to watch it. Throw a little more change in the meter to get the “Plus” subscription so you can download the Code Camper source code.

I’ll have much more to say about the course and the code over the coming months. I wish I could do so right now … but I’ve got a product to release.  After that … I’m on it!
