This page contains links to instructions for installing the BricklayerIDE and an overview of the Bricklayer graphics libraries.
The Bricklayer IDE
The BricklayerIDE provides an environment for creating, editing, executing, and debugging Bricklayer programs.
The BricklayerIDE can be installed on both MAC-OS and Windows operating systems. Install instructions can be found at the following links.
Bricklayer is a set of five graphics libraries written in SML that provide primitives suitable for creating 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional block-based artifacts.
In Bricklayer, (block-based) artifacts are constructed from pieces. A piece is an atomic artifact that occupies a single cell in a discrete coordinate space. The most common piece used in Bricklayer artifacts is a 1x1x1 LEGO brick, which is refered to as a bit-brick. It is also possible to construct Bricklayer artifacts using pieces denoting a variety of Minecraft blocks. Bricklayer currently provides 72 different bit-bricks and 343 Minecraft blocks. For a complete set of pieces consult the document found at the following link.
In Bricklayer documents, the terms piece, brick, and block are used interchangeably.
Documentation describing the functions available in each of the graphic libraries can be found at the following links.
- Level 1 – This library provides a set of basic “put” functions for placing pieces (LEGO bricks or Minecraft blocks) having standard LEGO shapes and colors at given coordinates.
- Level 2 – This library extends the Level 1 library with “offset” functions that shift the location of the origin coordinate. Also provided are functions for creating circles and rings.
- Level 3 – This library provides a “put” function that is parameterized on shape, piece, and coordinate. Also provided are “offset” functions and functions for creating lines, circles, and rings. And finally, Level 3 introduces a “setMySpace” function that can be used to create barriers restricting brick placement to subspaces within a virtual space.
- Level 4 – This library provides set of functions for creating 3D artifacts. Included are functions for creating rectangular prisims, spheres, cones, cylinders, and lines. In addition, many functions are parameterized brick lists (rather than bricks). Functions that are parameterized on brick lists create artifacts by populating designated cells in the virtual space with bricks that are randomly selected from the brick list.
- Level 5 – This library extends the Level 4 library with a variety iterators. Iterators are used to process the coordinates beloning to a subspace of the virtual space. Also provided are cell-based update and access functions.
A number of output formats are provided enabling Bricklayer artifacts to be viewed in a variety ways. The following viewing possibilities are currently supported.
- Lego Digital Designer (LDD)
- POV-Ray – A tool that creates high resolution renderings of LDD artifacts.
- STL viewers such as 3D Builder and Cura


About the Authors
Dina Renee Weiss, co-owner of The Village, an organization designed to charitably provide practical, real-world educational resources to people of all ages, all backgrounds, and all walks of life. In addition, she owns Redwing Financial, LLC., where she serves as a financial, life and business coach. She has long been a writer, primarily in theatrical arts, comedy and poetry, but feels her talents are now best geared towards writing practical and easily-implemented guides to developing a sense of ownership and personal responsibility for every aspect of an individual’s life.
Brett Pawelkiewicz, co-owner of The Village, recently completed his own launch into the Real World and realized how ill-prepared he was to do so. It was through this experience and in conversations with friends and family about his journey that he realized how commonplace it is to feel this way, and he felt compelled to do something about it. His hope is that in writing this book, families engage in thoughtful conversations with respect not only to their collective family goals, but also to the unique goals of each individual family member.


|The Wilde Album
by Merlin Holland
Hardcover - 192 pages (April 1998)
Henry Holt & Company, Inc.
The Wilde Album by Merlin Holland (Wilde's grandson) is a fascinating and comprehensive examination of how Wilde the artist consciously conjured--through a complicated and savvy use of the media--Wilde the personality.
What makes The Wilde Album ultimately moving, and unique, is Holland's use of rare family photos and personal material. Juxtaposed with the vivaciousness of the public life, and in the context of the government's persecution of the artist, this more private material embodies and expresses the pain and needless tragedy of Wilde's life.

|Son of Oscar Wilde
by Merlin Holland, Vyvyan B. Holland
The story of Oscar Wilde's glorious rise and tragic fall are well-known. But most readers are unfamiliar with the story of how Wilde's wife and two sons were affected by his fall from grace. "Son of Oscar Wilde" is a beautifully written and poignant account of how a young boy's life was afected by his father's notoriety.
With its thirty-three previously unpublished Oscar Wilde letters and its recollections of a man as spontaneous, humane, and sincere as he was prodigiously witty, Vyvyan Holland's memoir of his famous father has come to be regarded as a biographical classic in Wildean studies. Sharply observed, vivid, and dispassionate, it offers not only an unforgettable portrait of Wilde himself, his circle of friends, and his band of persecutors, but also a touching chronicle of Holland's own childhood, of the loneliness he experienced as the son of a remarkable, notorious father and of his emergence from the shadows of cruel injustice and dark scandal.
|Oscar Wilde (Literary Lives)
by Vyvyan Beresford Holland
A legendary figure of his generation, Oscar Wilde rapidly became the most successful playwright and the most celebrated wit in the English-speaking world. However, his downfall from being the darling of the salons to an object of vicious calumny was not only a remarkable cause clbre but also a pitiful tragedy.
Complete Letters of Oscar Wilde
by Oscar Wilde, Vyvyan B. Holland, Merlin Holland (Editor), Rupert Hart-Davis (Editor)
Deliciously wicked, astoundingly clever, and often outright shocking, Oscar Wilde put his art into his work and his genius into his life. In this collection, replete with newly discovered letters, the full extent of that genius is unveiled.
Charting his life from his Irish upbringing to fame in his fin de sicle London to infamy and exile in Paris, the letters-written between 1875 and 1900 to publishers and fans, friends and lovers, enemies and adversaries-resound with Wilde's wit, brilliance, and humanity. Wilde's grandson, Merlin Holland, and Rupert Hart-Davis have produced a provocative and revealing self-portrait.
Wilde's reputation as a serious thinker, humorous writer, and gay icon continues to flourish. The Complete Letters is an intimate exploration of his life and thoughts-Wilde in his own words.
Oscar Wilde: A Certain Genius
by Barbara Belford
In this elegant and affectionate biography of one of the most controversial personalities of the nineteenth century, Barbara Belford breaks new ground in the evocation of Oscar Wilde's personal life and in our understanding of the choices he made for his art. Published for the centenary of Wilde's death, here is a fresh, full-scale examination of the author of The Importance of Being Earnest and The Picture of Dorian Gray, a figure not only full of himself but enjoying life to the fullest.
Based on extensive study of original sources and animated throughout by historical detail, anecdote, and insight, the narrative traces Wilde's progression from his childhood in an intellectual Irish household to his maturity as a London author to the years of his European exile.

This book is a collection of the best practices for using Flask. There are a lot of pieces to the average Flask application. You’ll often need to interact with a database and authenticate users, for example. In the coming pages I’ll do my best to explain the “right way” to do this sort of stuff. My recommendations aren’t always going to apply, but I’m hoping that they’ll be a good option most of the time.
In order to present you with more specific advice, I’ve written this book with a few fundamental assumptions. It’s important to keep this in mind when you’re reading and applying these recommendations to your own projects.
The content of this book builds upon the information in the official documentation. I highly recommend that you go through the user guide and follow along with the tutorial. This will give you a chance to become familiar with the vocabulary of Flask. You should understand what views are, the basics of Jinja templating and other fundamental concepts defined for beginners. I’ve tried to avoid overlap with the information already available in the user guide, so if you read this book first, there’s a good chance that you’ll find yourself lost (is that an oxymoron?).
With all of that said, the topics in this book aren’t highly advanced. The goal is just to highlight best practices and patterns that will make development easier for you. While I’m trying to avoid too much overlap with the official documentation, you may find that I reiterate certain concepts to make sure that they’re familiar. You shouldn’t need to have the beginner’s tutorial open while you read this.
Python 2 versus Python 3¶
As I write this, the Python community is in the midst of a transition from Python 2 to Python 3. The official stance of the Python Software Foundation is as follows:
Python 2.x is the status quo, Python 3.x is the present and future of the language.
As of version 0.10, Flask runs with Python 3.3. When I asked Armin Ronacher about whether new Flask apps should begin using Python 3, he said that he’s not yet recommending it to people.
I’m not using it myself currently, and I don’t ever recommend to people things that I don’t believe in myself, so I’m very cautious about recommending Python 3.
—Armin Ronacher, creator of Flask
One reason for holding off on Python 3 is that many common dependencies haven’t been ported yet. You don’t want to build a project around Python 3 only to realize a few months down the line that you can’t use packages X, Y and Z. It’s possible that eventually Flask will officially recommend Python 3 for new projects, but for now it’s all about Python 2.
The Python 3 Wall of Superpowers tracks which major Python packages have been ported to Python 3.
Since this book is meant to provide practical advice, I think it makes sense to write with the assumption of Python 2. Specifically, I’ll be writing the book with Python 2.7 in mind. Future updates may very well change this to evolve with the Flask community, but for now 2.7 is where we stand.
Flask version 0.10¶
At the time of writing this, 0.10 is the latest version of Flask (0.10.1 to be exact). Most of the lessons in this book aren’t going to change with minor updates to Flask, but it’s something to keep in mind nonetheless.
The content of this books is going to be updated on the fly, rather than with periodic releases. That is one of the benefits of putting the content out there for free, rather than putting it behind a walled garden. The web is a much more fluid distribution channel than print or even PDFs.
The book’s source is hosted on GitHub and that is where “development” will be happening. Contributions and ideas are always welcome!
Conventions used in this book¶
Each chapter stands on its own¶
Each chapter in this book is an isolated lesson. Many books and tutorials are written as one long lesson. Generally this means that an example program or application is created and updated throughout the book to demonstrate concepts and lessons. Instead, examples are included in each lesson to demonstrate the concepts, but the examples from different chapters aren’t meant to be combined into one large project.
Footnotes will be used for citations so you don’t think I’m making things up.
Italic text will be used to denote a file name.
Bold text will be used to denote a new or important term.
Common pitfalls that could cause major problems will be shown in a warning box.
Supplemental information will appear in note boxes.
Six backer names from the Kickstarter campaign have been encoded and sprinkled around the book. If you find all six and email the locations to me, I’ll send you an extraordinarily mediocre prize. No hints.
- This book contains recommendations for using Flask.
- I’m assuming that you’ve gone through the Flask tutorial.
- I’m using Python 2.7.
- I’m using Flask 0.10.
- I’ll do my best to keep the content of the book up-to-date.
- Each chapter in this book stands on its own.
- There are a few ways that I’ll use formatting to convey additional information about the content.
- Summaries will appear as concise lists of takeaways from the chapters.

“Lim’s enthralling novel succeeds on every level: as a love story, an imaginative thriller, and a dystopian narrative.”
“[Lim] comes into her own here, with prose that’s elegant and haunting, somehow managing to be both unsentimental and deeply moving at the same time. A devastating debut. ”
In September 1981, Polly and Frank arrive at the time travel terminal at Houston Intercontinental Airport. One will travel, and one will stay.
An Indie Next Pick & Indigo Best Book of the Month, and recommended by Entertainment Weekly, Real Simple, Publisher’s Weekly, CBC, Maclean’s Magazine, the Millions, Chatelaine, Red Magazine, Hello Giggles, Book Riot, Syfy.com, and more!
America is in the grip of a deadly flu pandemic. When Frank catches the virus, Polly will do whatever it takes to save her lover, even if it means risking everything. She agrees to a radical plan—time travel has been invented in the future to thwart the virus. If she signs up for a one-way-trip into the future to work as a bonded laborer, the company will pay for the life-saving treatment Frank needs. Polly promises to meet Frank again in Galveston, Texas, where she will arrive in twelve years.
But when Polly is re-routed an extra five years into the future, Frank is nowhere to be found. Alone in a divided America, with no status and no money, Polly is desperate to find Frank. But as danger mounts and her search demands unthinkable sacrifice, she must ask herself: what does it cost to hold on to the past, and what does it cost to let it go?
An Ocean of Minutes is a timely exploration of migration and the wrenching love story of two people who are at once mere weeks and many years apart.
“A beautiful debut exploring how time, love, and sacrifice are never what they seem to be.”
“Amidst the breathtaking world Thea Lim has created in An Ocean of Minutes is a profound meditation on the inhumanity of class and the limits of love. It takes immense talent to render cruelty both accurately and with honest beauty – Lim has pulled it off. This is a story about the malleability of time, but at its core lives something timeless.”
“An Ocean of Minutes is a time machine into the future of this moment. Gripping and graceful, it's dystopian love story as told by a visionary. Thea Lim's novel reads like the birth of a legend.”
“An Ocean of Minutes offers that rare combination of a provocative speculative setting, masterfully elegant writing, and a story that moves and haunts long after the last page. Thea Lim is an enormously talented writer.”
“A strikingly imaginative time-travel story unlike anything I've ever read, rich with pinpoint emotional insight and fierce, vivid observations about a future that's already our past.”
“An Ocean of Minutes is a buoyant, compelling tale ranging from the everyday beauty of falling in love to a frightening vision of a dystopian present day. Ms. Lim's imagination is boundless and dynamic, from her narrative arc to the small details that animate and anchor her prose. I would recommend An Ocean of Minutes to anyone looking to be drawn in and enchanted by a truly unique story.”
“An Ocean of Minutes draws comparisons with The Time Traveller's Wife. But this tale of a woman sent 13 years into the future to save the man she loves, cuts deeper and more true. Heart-breaking and haunting.”


The Resistance Network is the history of an underground network of humanitarians, missionaries, and diplomats in Ottoman Syria who helped save the lives of thousands during the Armenian Genocide. Khatchig Mouradian challenges depictions of Armenians as passive victims of violence and subjects of humanitarianism, demonstrating the key role they played in organizing a humanitarian resistance against the destruction of their people. Piecing together hundreds of accounts, official documents, and missionary records, Mouradian presents a social history of genocide and resistance in wartime Aleppo and a network of transit and concentration camps stretching from Bab to Ras ul-Ain and Der Zor. He ultimately argues that, despite the violent and systematic mechanisms of control and destruction in the cities, concentration camps, and massacre sites in this region, the genocide of the Armenians did not progress unhindered—unarmed resistance proved an important factor in saving countless lives.
The book, published by Michigan State University Press in 2021, has received the Syrian Studies Association “Honourable Mention 2021.” The Prize Committee deemed The Resistance Network “long awaited,” noting that “somewhere along the way we lost sight of the Armenian resistance network. This book is one great step in recovering that past.”


Measuring the Success of Sales Training
By Patricia Pulliam Philliips, PhD, Jack J. Phillips, PhD with Rachel Robinson
From renowned ROI experts Jack and Patti Phillips, Measuring the Success of Sales Training outlines how to measure the return on investment of sales training programs and provides real-life case studies that demonstrate how to apply the principles of the ROI Methodology when evaluating these programmes. This title is the second in a series of books on measuring impact and calculating ROI. The first, Measuring the Success of Coaching (2012), focuses on evaluating coaching programs. The third title in the series is Measuring the Success of Organization Development (2013), which examines the strategic role of organisational development (OD) and how to measure the effects of OD efforts. Each book in the series explains the concept of ROI and the steps involved in accurate measurement, while also presenting real-life case studies that show evaluation in action.


The sons of Issachar were Tola, Puah,
Jashub, and Shimron—four in all. The sons of Tola were Uzzi, Rephaiah,
Jeriel, Jahmai, Jibsam, and Shemuel, heads of their father’s house. The
sons of Tola were mighty men of valor in their generations; their number
in the days of David was twenty-two thousand six hundred. 1 Chronicles 7
Reading the lines above and about four or so chapters after, I was
impressed by the amount of details in these books about each family.
While sometimes you may wonder why God will give so much attention to
details, these same detailed record became useful when the Israelites
came back from captivity around the tail end of the 6th century BC.
A while back in a lively discussion with my late brother, I remember
him saying, “someone should write the story of our family”, and by this
he was referring more to the entire clan. The fact is every family has a
remarkable history. Good ones and not so good ones, the combination of
both make us who we are today.
A wise man once said there are three assets of value you must leave for the coming generation;
1. Your pictures; because a picture says a thousand words
2. Your library; this will give them the benefit of the books you read
that made you who you were; they will have the same access to drink from
the same fountain of wisdom as you.
3. Your journals; everyone can keep a journal today, it will give the future generation access to you mind and how it worked.
Recently I read in a book that we now generate in every 48hours, data
equivalent to that produced from the beginning of writing till 2003;
Talk about information overload. Every phone is a mini computer making
everyone a potential, scribe, narrator, author and so on.
Capture your story, it will help someone in the future, our circumstance
may vary in every generation but man hasn’t changed in the last 6
Finally in the words of George Santayana, We must
welcome the future, remembering that soon it will be the past; and we
must respect the past, remembering that it was once all that was humanly
As you dig around and capture your own story, I pray
that God will guide you to details to lean from in Jesus’ name. There
are priceless lessons in history, someday; people might even be willing
to pay for yours.


Helpful Tips for San Diego Senior Caregivers Taking Care of Senior Loved Ones
Are you a family caregiver? Do you feel like you’ve reached your breaking point? There are a number of things you can do to make your job of taking care of your senior loved one a little easier:
- Join a caregiver support group. Support groups are much more than a shoulder to cry on. They’re also great places to meet new friends who truly understand what you’re going through. If the idea of being in a big group makes you uncomfortable, consider individual counseling.
- Get trained. Many community organizations and even hospitals offer training for family caregivers in vital tasks like bathing, grooming, and dealing with incontinence. If there are no such classes in your area, head to your local library. There are a number of wonderful books with practical information on senior caregiving.
- Educate yourself. The more you know about your senior loved one’s condition, the better a caregiver you will be. Look online to find your local chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, the National Parkinson Foundation, and more. Read up on the latest senior care research and consider attending a conference or lecture on the subject.
- Take some time for yourself. Respite care is a great option for family caregivers who are dedicated to their job but recognize that they need to take a break from time to time. At Home Care Assistance, our highly trained San Diego senior caregivers can be with your loved one for just a few hours at a time, allowing you to go out to dinner, take a long hike, or finally make that yoga class you’ve been wanting to try.
Still looking for more help? Contact us to learn more about the second book in our senior wellness series, the Handbook of Live-In Care. It offers practical, how-to advice on caring for a senior parent or loved one.

LORD ROBERT BADEN POWELL (1857-1941)
Lord Robert Baden-Powell (1857-1941) founded Scouting at the beginning of the 20th century in England. His educational intuitions relying on active education and on education of the young by the young still remain today at the heart of the method. The Scouting method has contributed (and continues to do so!) to the education of millions of young people throughout the world.
A boy unlike the others
Robert studied at Charterhouse school. Discipline was strict and, as soon as he could, the young boy would take refuge in the woods that lay just behind the school and were forbidden to the pupils. He had to use elaborate tricks to escape from the teachers’ rounds. This did not stop him from inventing many games, watching for animals and cooking small game on “smokeless fires” in order not to be spotted. He was seen as a pupil paying attention and ready to play, a good and creative fellow, however, not a genius. With his brothers, he often had the opportunity to explore the countryside, to camp and to canoe. His childhood gave him sound training for life in the open air and resourcefulness.
His military career
In 1876, he opted for a military career. He was second at the entrance exam, which surprised everyone. Lieutenant in the Indian Army, he developed his gifts for sports, observation, disguising and life in the open. For some time, he was an intelligence agent in Russia. Then, he became a colonel in 1899, and commanded the 1,000 men of the Mafeking garrison in South Africa, besieged by 10,000 Boers.
The siege lasted 217 days, during which B.P. multiplied tricks, even using young boys as messengers, observers and sentries. The resistance of the Mafeking besieged people was carefully followed by all the British media. The town was freed on May 16th, 1900, which turned B.P. into a national hero. Named General Major, he organised the South-African mounted police.
From the beginning of his military career, he insisted on developing the spirit of initiative and the sense of observation in his soldiers’ training. He himself became an excellent military scout and trained numerous scouts: at the outposts of the troops, they had to identify the way and possibly locate the enemy, and they had to be able to manage in hostile or unknown territory.
“Aids to Scouting”
B.P. published his observations on “scouting” (the art of military scouts) in 1899 in a small booklet meant for militaries: “Aids to scouting”. We do not know how the British Army welcomed this book. But we do know that when B.P. came back to England he was quite surprised to discover that his book was very famous among educators and young boys; it inspired their games and activities, and even their observation activities in some schools’ programmes.
As a colonial soldier, he cared for the greatness of England. To him, this depended on every one’s health, education and good citizenship. He was struck when he discovered the contrast between the young population of suburbian London, which were in bad health, had nothing to do and often were offenders, and the young soldiers, whom he had contributed to train on both continents, and who were sound and vigorous, and open. He had also noticed when he had employed Mafeking teenagers as messengers and scouts during the siege (to save men for the defence of the ramparts) that the boys were solid and capable of great things, as long as one knew how to talk to them and one really trusted them.
Many boys wrote to him and he never failed to answer his readers thoroughly. All this prompted him to start work and to contemplate the use of all the techniques he had experienced during his campaigns to put them at the service of the boys in a prospect of peace.
The birth of Scouting
In August 1907, he went to Brownsea Island with about twenty boys for an experimental camp. He made up patrols of five boys led by one of them, and made them practise through games the exercises recommended by his method. The boys and B.P. considered the results to be excellent. So then, chapter by chapter, B.P. published a book called “Scouting for boys”. In the author’s mind, this book viewed as “the bible of scouting” would offer youth clubs and organisations a new education method. The fruit of his experience, this method is based on a law, a promise, on patrol life and activities in the open. Very soon, millions of copies of this handbook about “citizenship at the school of nature through woodcraft” were sold.
As soon as “Scouting for Boys” was published, boys spontaneously formed their own patrols, more and more often away from the existing institutions. Without really wanting to, B.P. had to organise this budding movement. With the help of King Edward VII, he left the Army in 1910 and dedicated all his time to scouting. Then, his life blended with the history of world scouting and guiding.
Let us also remember that Baden-Powell’s life ended in Kenya, on January 8th, 1941. He named his home “PAXTU”, a neologism that could mean: peace to you, or peace with you. For the main feature of scouting as invented by Baden Powell is to educate children and young people of all races, languages, cultures, religions and social conditions, to become – contrarily to the soldiers whom he trained – “peace scouts”, that is to say happy, useful, and active men and women, at the outposts of life. Scouting, which has been expanding constantly since its creation, is undoubtedly the largest non-political and independent education organisation in the world, based on volunteers. Every scout, every guide, individually and collectively at all the levels of the association, try to be faithful to the founder’s ultimate message:
“Try and leave this world a little better than you found it”.


I grew up with parents who adored gardening and growing their own fruit, vegetables and flowers. Our garden was small but really beautiful and full of delicious scents and textures and there was an allottment a short walk away which was a fun place to go on a Sunday afternoon. The shed had curtains and there was always a whistling kettle and kale-a-plenty. My grandparents had the 'plot' next door to ours and it really was a home from home.
My Mother always had flowers in the house and and I know that she, like me, found them fascinating and intoxicating. She trained herself to be a florist by reading library books on floristry techniques. She was a very creative person; a talented dressmaker, excellent cook, artist and writer.
They say the apple never falls far from the tree and my interests turned out to be very similar to hers; the seed was planted very early on.

On Friday 8th November, our Form 1 students participated in the National Book Festival. The visit included a presentation from Irish author Dave Rudden who told stories to those present about the books he wrote. The monsters, the heroes and the characters from these books came to life on stage while the author himself explained the ideas behind these extraordinary fantasies.
From time to time his sense of humour kept the audience laughing. The students then had time to go around the fair to check on special offers by various publishers and libraries. They were given vouchers which were soon exchanged with various interesting books that boost reading experiences. There was a large variety of books about different subjects and different languages and cultures. Reading is indeed the last frontier which everyone is invited to discover and explore.
During this years’ festival Michael Spiteri, Nikolai Matvei and John Paul Camilleri all Form 2 students from our school were awarded a prize for their love towards books and reading.

I wouldn't say this book deserves the Top 3 list; however, I believe this book should be the first you read before getting into others. It introduces financial literacy, assets vs liabilities, and building wealth from personal finance. This book was the book that changed my life forever that taught me the principles of money and wealth, and it was the first book I was able to read since leaving high school three years ago now.
The book itself is about Kiyosaki's childhood, where he had a rich dad and a poor dad. The poor dad was his actual father, and his rich dad was his best friends dad. Overall it is a fantastic book; it's enjoyable and very educational. This isn't the best entrepreneurial book out there, but I can vouch that this book turns on that "switch" in your head. It makes you think twice about the real importance of money.

The “Gray” in Graybar
Part 2 of 4
This is blog #2 of the Elisha Gray series. Read blog #1 here.
Meanwhile, another Clevelander by the name of Enos Barton, who had been a telegrapher during the Civil War, had made a name for himself by running a small business that developed and sold telegraphic components. George Shawk, a business associate of Barton’s, was foreman of Western Union’s Cleveland telegraph supply plant.
When Western Union closed the plant, Shawk bought some of the tools and equipment and went into partnership with Barton.
Through his association with Western Union, Elisha Gray had become acquainted with both George Shawk and Enos Barton. In 1869, Gray bought out Shawk’s interest in Barton’s company and formed the new partnership of Gray & Barton.
Part of the capitalization of this new partnership was a loan made by Enos Barton’s mother to her son after she mortgaged the family farm. And part of the capital was an advance made by Anson Stager to Elisha Gray so that Gray could develop his ideas of perfecting a small, inexpensive, and reliable telegraph printer.
General Stager was so impressed with the potential of Gray & Barton that he offered to become a partner, on the condition that the business be moved to Chicago. The partners agreed, and the infant firm moved to 162 South Water Street in December of 1869. Later on, the partners sold a one-third interest in their company to Western Union, and renamed the company the Western Electric Manufacturing Company.
Despite the bitter depression of the 1870’s, Western Electric prospered. Their first products were wire, batteries, insulators, and tools for the telegraph industry. Enos Barton was the business mastermind of the company, and Elisha Gray was the creative force.
The inventor exceeded Anson Stager’s high expectations of him. In 1872, Gray patented a device that converted incoming telegraphic signals to printed characters and symbols on a paper tape. Adopted by police forces and businesses such as stock exchanges, “Gray’s Printer,” the forerunner of the stock ticker, became an industry standard.
This article was republished from the Spring 1994 Graybar Outlook magazine.

Believe it or not some people need to write programs to access Amazon Web Services in This project grew out of the conversion of my old HPC project to run on the amazon EC2.
I needed a C library to access the code. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any, so I wrote my own.
The code quality sucks, I wrote the whole thing pretty much in one day. And I wouldn’t use it for anything more then a proof of concept projects unless it is heavily reworked to be more robust. But nevertheless it gets the job done.
The library includes bindings for SQS and S3.
It depends on libcurl for its network operations and openssl for the crypto.
There is also libAWS but it is heavily C++ dependent so it wouldn’t work for all types of C projects.
The library is available at http://code.google.com/p/aws4c/
Have any questions or suggestions write to me ‘firstname.lastname@example.org’ or post your comment here.


Author Review: C. J. Cherryh (1942
C. J. Cherryh’s real name is Carolyn Janice Cherry. She was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1942. Her initial career was as a teacher of Classics, but she is now a full time writer. Her first book Gate of Ivrel was published in 1976. She is an accomplished photographer and artist in addition to her writing skills. In 1977 she won the John W. Campbell award for best new writer, and has won the Hugo award 3 times and been nominated a further 3 times. She is a prolific writer with over 50 novels to her credit at the time of this review (1999), and numerous short stories and collaborations.
Cherryh's writing flows across the page. She tends to delve deeply into the motivations, and emotional state of her characters; therefore, although the plots are always well drawn, her books are not a full-fledged race from one action scene to another. Definitely for the more thoughtful reader, she draws extensively on her interests in anthropology, botany, climatology and engineering. She writes both science fiction and fantasy novels. Her science fiction works provide sufficient technical explanation to make the worlds believable, without being Asimov-like expositions of advanced physics and engineering. She appears to have a particular interest in the evolution of intelligent predators and this theme runs through several of her series.

After an enjoyable night at the movies watching Katharine Hepburn grapple with the uses of 1950’s computer technology in “Desk Set”. I woke up too the last day of NLS8.
The first keynote speaker was R. David Lankes, his address “Eulogy for the information age: the future is impact, not access.” Was so inspiring, I am even using the idea “Community is our true collection” as the basis for a university essay. Libraries are no longer just warehouses for books but they are community hubs influenced by the community they are situated in. As you saw from earlier posts my first library work experience situated me in a library that personified the idea that libraries are community hubs. The classes and activities ran by this library not only encouraged members of the community to be engaged with the library but also reflected the needs of the community. The other interesting point R. David made was what do we call our client base at the library is it patrons (from a period of subscription libraries and patronage from rich benefactors) customers (customer service /capitalist model) or user and do we like to be used???? As user experience is the desired model in Library design and interaction at this point in time I think I will look into this model a bit more and see where librarians can situate themselves in this model.
The rest of the day had a number of interesting workshops E-resourcing and negotiating skills (I think I chose the wrong one here thought it was going to be about negotiating a contract and it wasn’t) Guerrilla # Research How to DIY Research and Oral History Projects make it simple. Really love the last workshop it gave me ideas on a project I want to do in the future to “give back history” to a community I worked with.
The final keynote address of the conference was Jane Caro, She was awesome. The main things I took from her address were, you are enough, you aren’t perfect but that is ok and don’t let people tell you that you are too much or too emotional as they don’t have the right.
Thank you, Jane, have been told that all my life and finally being myself, my imperfect flawed self is truely enough.
Finally reflections on NLS8, I am really glad I went, it was amazing to be surrounded by people who are passionate about libraries and information as I am. I feel like I have found my people trust me it’s been a long time coming. I learnt so much, made new contacts and friends and just had an amazing time. Will be back for NLS9 in 2019 when I hope to have almost finished my degree.
Big week ahead finishing an essay and starting uni again next week (Semester two).

Friends,would you like to listen a neruda poem.
Pablo Neruda was the pen name and, later, legal name of the Chilean poet and politician Neftalí Ricardo Reyes Basoalto. He chose his pen name after Czech poet Jan Neruda.
Neruda wrote in a variety of styles such as erotically charged love poems as in his collection Twenty Poems of Love and a Song of Despair, surrealist poems, historical epics, and overtly political manifestos. In 1971 Neruda won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Colombian novelist Gabriel García Márquez once called him “the greatest poet of the 20th century in any language.” Neruda always wrote in green ink as it was his personal color of hope.
It was passed from one bird to another,
the whole gift of the day.
The day went from flute to flute,
went dressed in vegetation,
in flights which opened a tunnel
through the wind would pass
to where birds were breaking open
the dense blue air –
and there, night came in. When I returned from so many journeys,
I stayed suspended and green
between sun and geography –
I saw how wings worked,
how perfumes are transmitted
by feathery telegraph,
and from above I saw the path,
the springs and the roof tiles,
the fishermen at their trades,
the trousers of the foam;
I saw it all from my green sky.
I had no more alphabet
than the swallows in their courses,
the tiny, shining water
of the small bird on fire
which dances out of the pollen.


I began a journey in 2016. A hunger to dive even deeper into the life of Jesus, a quest to discover what it truly means to live, love, lead, serve, speak, sacrifice, pray, prioritize and preach #likeJesus. I committed to read through the Gospels every month this year. I’m taking a different Harmony of the Gospels, particularly those that weave the four gospels into a single narrative, and reading through each one over the course of a month. Each day, I journal insights on what God is showing me about being #likeJesus.
I thought you might appreciate a brief description of the Harmonies I’ve read so far.
The Greatest Story by Johnston Cheney & Stanley Ellison (JAN 2016)
Originally titled Life of Christ in Stereo, The Greatest Story represents the primary scholarship of Johnston Cheney, a layman who taught himself greek and spent the last twenty-plus years of his life compiling this work. Stanley Ellisen, a professor of Biblical Literature from Western Seminary, lent his scholarship and helped to get the original work published. One of Cheney’s unique arguments is that Jesus’ public ministry was a minimum of 4 years, not 3. There are many things I appreciate about The Greatest Story, with both the translation and the blending of the four gospels making it very readable as a single narrative.
Jesus, In His Own Words by Robert Mounce (FEB 2016)
Robert Mounce offers a unique translation in Jesus, In His Own Words. Everywhere the gospel writers, speaking of Jesus, say that “He said this” or “He did that,” Mounce translates it in the first person as if Jesus is telling His own story. Robert Mounce is no slouch when it comes to his credentials to offer such a work, being the president emeritus of Whitworth University, a noted commentary author, and a translator of the New International Version, New Living Translation and English Standard Version. From what I can tell, Mounce incorporates everything contained in the four gospels with the exception of Luke’s prologue (Luke 1:1-4) about writing an orderly account for Theophilus, since this is Luke’s own insertion and doesn’t fit the theme of Jesus, In His Own Words.
The Gospels Interwoven by Kermit Zarley (MAR 2016)
Unlike others on this list, Kermit Zarley, a former professional golfer, did not translate and harmonize The Gospels Interwoven directly from the Greek. Instead, Zarley has taken the New International Version translation and woven it together into a single narrative. To achieve his chronology, he took 13 different harmonies and laid them side by side to study the order in which they laid out the events of the life of Christ. He leans toward the structure from Strong’s Harmony of the Gospels, which closely mirrors the timeline from Thomas and Gundry’s Harmony of the Gospels. Having grown up with the NIV, the wording of The Gospels Interwoven is very familiar and easily readable. Harley has also included a helpful, extensive section that covers all the potential conflicts in harmonizing the gospels. A very helpful tool!
One Perfect Life by John MacArthur (APR 2016)
John MacArthur is a pastor, Bible teacher and author who has compiled a strong harmony. Having recently concluded his commentaries on all four gospels, MacArthur decided to compile a single narrative Harmony of the Gospels based on the chronological timeline he’s long used in his commentaries. His translation closely mirrors the New American Standard Version, making it a little stiffer and less modern in its phrasing. However, the inclusion of his commentary notes is very helpful and his chronology is solid. I particularly found it refreshing that he began with a pre-gospel section where he wove together Old Testament scriptures regarding Creation, Fall, the Passover Lamb and Promises of the Coming Messiah. Then he concluded with a post-gospel section with scriptures gathered from Acts, the Epistles and Revelation that emphasized the significance of the Death and Resurrection of Christ, the Return of Christ, Salvation by Grace through Faith and the need to Respond to the Gospel.
The Merged Gospels by Gary Crossland (MAY 2016)
Gary Crossland has translated his harmonized gospel, The Merged Gospels, directly from the Greek and laid it out in a section by section, sentence by sentence format. The layout has the feel of a workbook. It’s wonderful for study and for seeing how each sentence and section was harmonized from the four gospels, but this makes it less readable as a story format. One added benefit to Crossland’s work on The Merged Gospels is that it is also available in audio format.
NOTE: One section of the harmonies that I use to compare each author’s work is how they treat the Call of the Four that we read in Matthew 4 and Mark 1. Do they harmonize these together with Luke 5, or do they treat Luke 5 as a separate event where Jesus tells Peter a second time that he will fish for men. I believe Matthew 4 and Mark 1 are a separate event from Luke 5. Cheney, Mounce and MacArthur also harmonize the gospels this way, while Crossland and Zarley view the two accounts as different viewpoints of the same event.
The Jesus Story compiled by Bill Perkins
Bill Perkins has taken the classic, Life of Christ in Stereo by Johnston Cheney and Stanley Ellisen, and compiled it in a format that reads like a novel. It’s in a nice hard-bound cover and laid out without scripture references or subject headings. The seven sections of the book are Preparation for Ministry, The First Year of Ministry, The Second Year of Ministry, The Third Year of Ministry, The Fourth Year of Ministry, The Last Week of Ministry, and Crucifixion, Resurrection & Ascension. It’s simple, meant to be read as a story, without the distractions or interruptions of scripture references or added commentary.
Other Harmonies that I will read later this year include: The Harmony of the Gospels by St. Augustine of Hippo; A Life Worth Knowing: A Chronological Harmony of the Four Gospels by David Barrett; A Harmony of the Four Gospels: The New International Version by Orville Daniel; A Simplified Harmony of the Gospels by George Knight; The Fourfold Gospel by J.W. McGarvey; Eyewitness: The Life of Christ Told in One Story by Frank Ball. I’ll provide a brief description of these Harmonies later in the year.
For study purposes, all of Sonlife Ministries’ training is based off Thomas’ and Gundry’s A Harmony of the Gospels, which is a parallel version of the four Gospels, laid out in chronological order side by side. Thomas’ and Gundry’s work also includes scholarly articles that provide an overview of various forms of biblical criticism and answers to the apparent challenges with harmonizing the gospels.
