The next day broke, with them all in formation on the field of battle. As an archer, he had found himself to the rear, stationed next to a troop of mages from Ul'dah.  Through the morning haze, the Garleans likewise lined up. Two forces, ready to fight.  No one could have predicted how the day would end.

Keryn stared at the book in front of her, experiencing what was not her first or likely last moment of intense deja vu. It was a simple ledger style book, filled with names both real and assumed, though apparently none of them were her own. At least, not that Mother Miounne had been able to find.

The keys sat heavy in Kirah's pocket, the added weight still new and unfamiliar. She was nervous about what the keys represented. As they were the keys to the small house she'd finally purchased in the Goblet, there were several layers to unpack in order to understand the particular flavours of her nervousness.

"What Lives? A Meta-Analysis of Diverse Opinions on the Definition ofLife" The question of "what is life?" has challenged scientists and philosophers for centuries, producing an array of definitions that reflect both the mystery of its emergence and the diversity of disciplinary perspectives brought to bear on the question.Despite significant progress in our understanding of biological systems, psychology, computation, and information theory, no single definition for life has yet achieved universal acceptance.

Pleased to report that @christinamartin.bsky.social’s new book has arrived, and I am already blown away by her thoughtful foreword.
GET AHEAD OF BEING DEAD Your Handy Planner for the End of Life EVIE KING This book is about death, obviously, so go gently, and do seek support for anything that causes distress. It is also about planning for the end oflife, but it is not intended to be part of an intentional exit strategy. Ifyou are coming to this from a place of suicidal ideations, please stop, breathe, know you are needed in this world, and reach out. The Samaritans, CALM and Mind all have free phone lines; look them up and talk it out. All love, Evie

EFTA01154025 | EFTA01154027 MOYERS: It seems to me there's something official Washington won't talk about including many progressives. John Maynard Keynes, the great economist of the last century said quote *The same rule ofself-destructivefinancial calculation governs every walk oflife. We destroy the beauty ofthe countryside because the unappropriated splendors ofnature have no economic value. We are capable ofshutting offthe sun and the stars because they do not pay a dividend." And isn't it the case that we're likewise shutting out millions of Americans who work hard for a living, can't find a decent job at a living wage because our political and our financial elites consider dividends more important than the lived experience of real people? WARREN: I think that's right. I think that's exactly where we are in this country right now. And I think this is what we're trying to fight back. You know, I frame this as the question of how we build a future. And I talk about the investments we make together. And how those investments give every kid a fighting chance. That that's what we're supposed to do. We're supposed to build opportunity. This is about our children and our grandchildren. This is about the kind of country we want to be. This is about the kind of people we are. We aren't a people who are just blind in the pursuit of profits. That's not who we are. And we can't let-- those among us who are control our government and direct our country. If those are the people they want to be, so be it. But our government is supposed to be there to work for us, for all of us, for this whole country, to help build a future, not for some of our kids, but for all of our kids. That is our moral responsibility. That's what we are required to do. We are called to do this. MOYERS: I recommend people read "it Fighting Chance,"your latest book. But I tell you, I go back quite often to "The Two-Income Trap" which is what we talked about ten years ago. WARREN: We did. MOYERS: Why middle class parents are going broke. And ten years after you wrote this-- ten years after we knew this was a burning issue and you predicted that we were going to have a crisis in America if we didn't deal with it, it's worse. WARREN: You know, Bill, there are pieces we have to remember that have gotten better. We've got a consumer agency fighting on our side. We've-- we-- but it is worse. It's worse because families are pressed harder than ever. Families are squeezed right to the edge all over this country. The only chance we've got is if those families will turn back to their government and say, I demand that you work for me, not for the billionaires, not for the millionaires. That you work for me. That you put a set of rules in place that give me a chance, that give my children a chance, that give my grandchildren a chance. That's our only hope for this country. And I tell you, we're getting down to the eleventh hour on this. We can't take much more of this. We can't shut the government down again and just blow through billions of dollars for nothing. And shake the confidence of the rest of the world that looks around and says, what's happened to the United States? Here was this optimistic, prosperous country that is so intent on an internal political fight that it won't even take care of itself much less lead the rest of the world. We can do better than that and we must do better than that. My father use to say to only pull a gun out in an argument when there is an immediate threat and then understand by doing so, you have loss the argument. I say this because having just returned from London where there is a concern over what NATO should do to support Ukraine against its quarrels with Russia and then returning back home to the US where television news pundits are fanning the flames for war against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. Unless NATO members are willing to fight on Ukraine's behalf, the alliance should refrain from meddling, tacitly acknowledging the existence of a Russian sphere of influence, much as it did in 1956 regarding Hungary and in 1968 with Czechoslovakia. I realize that some of those incidents are seen as failures but proud moments in freedom's march onward. Because when playing the long game — the presence of Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are in the ranks of today's NATO testifies to that truth. Of course, there is a logic to what NATO is doing. It is based on the inertia of the Cold War, fueled by an economic crisis. This means that instead of transforming economic and social structures, European leadership is throwing more resources into a system that doesn't work. And this means expansion and conflict. So rather than further provoking Russia by suggesting that NATO's eastward expansion will continue, the alliance should remove any doubts about its willingness to defend the territory it currently claims. Doing so requires more than brave speeches and more than creating a modest "rapid reactionforce," which will inevitably look more impressive on paper than in reality. And putting troops in Poland and the Baltic Republics to intimidate Vladimir Putin, which some European hawks are suggesting will only validate his (sometimes justified) paranoia. As Boris Kagarlitsky wrote last week in a op-ed in the New York Times, the debate about the role ofNATO in Ukraine is starting too late: Western leaders already made a fatal decision to back the new Kiev government no matter what it is doing and no matter what the real situation is on the ground. That means that they will bear responsibility for the inevitable failures and disasters that will follow. We can debate whether what happened in Kiev in February zom was an uprising or a coup =, EFTA01154027

EFTA01089440 | EFTA01089443 \„,,CASBS Summit 2012 Where Social Meets Science Laura L Carstensen Ph.D. Professor of Psychology and founding director of the Stanford Center on Longevity Laura Carstensen is Professor of Psychology and the Fairleigh S. Dickinson Jr. Professor in Public Policy at Stanford University, where she is also the founding director of the Stanford Center on Longevity, an interdisciplinary research center that explores innovative ways to solve the problems of people over 50 while improving quality of life at all ages. She is best known for socioemotional selectivity theory, which addresses the links between motivation and time horizons. Her research has been supported by the National Institute on Aging for more than 20 years and is currently funded through a MERIT award. Laura has chaired two studies for the National Academy of Sciences, resulting in The AgingMind and When I M 64. She has won numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship and the Distinguished Career Award from the Gerontological Society of America; earlier this year she received an honorary doctorate from the University of Leuven. She is a member of the MacArthur Foundation's Research Network on an Aging Society. Carstensen received her BS from the University of Rochester and PhD in clinical psychology from West Virginia University. Research statement: We are approaching a watershed moment in human history. By 2015, the number of people over 65 in the U.S. will surpass the number children under 15; and by the time our children reach old age, living to 100 will be commonplace. Mostly, discussions about aging at the individual and societal levels are fraught with concern. True enough, there are major challenges associated with this dramatic increase in life expectancy. Yet we should not lose sight of the fact that long life presents unprecedented opportunities. The sudden extension of life expectancy outpaced the ability of culture to accommodate longer lives. By culture, I refer broadly to the crucible that holds science, technology and behavioral practices. The societies we live in today were literally built by and for young people. Medical science searches for cures to acute diseases more than chronic diseases that develop slowly over decades. Employers reward workers for agility and speed. Trains, automobiles and airports tacitly are designed for young users. Even hospitals are difficult to navigate if users are in any way functionally disabled. Social norms that guide us through life, telling us when to get an education, many, work and retire evolved around lives halfas long. The demographic changes unfolding will reshape every aspect of life as we know it. At this point in time, individuals are worried and policy makers are bracing for an inevitable crisis. Science and technology offer an alternative: design a world where the majority of people arrive at old age mentally sharp, physically fit and financially secure. To this end, we need to develop "longevity science" an interdisciplinary science that addresses practical problems of long-lived people and finds solutions that improve quality of life at all ages. It is essential that we focus not only on age-related decline, but also identify strengths of older citizens. My own research focuses on age differences in motivation and aspects of development that may improve across adulthood. Although there are aspects of cognitive and physical functioning that decline with age, knowledge grows and emotional stability improves. People come to be more selective in their focus, but increasingly invested in activities that are most meaningful to them. Indeed, societies with large numbers of mature, emotionally stable, citizens, whose childrearing years are behind them, and who care deeply about the world around them can be better societies than we have ever known. At the Stanford Center on Longevity, I work with teams of scientists, including engineers, social scientists, physicians, and educators, to advance and rapidly disseminate science that can form the basis of a culture that supports long life. Our aim is to apply science and technology to the problems of aging, identify unique strengths ofolder people and join forces with policy makers and leaders in business and communities to use this knowledge to improve quality oflife at all ages.

EFTA00315128 | EFTA00315165 EDWARD WILSON iffme • t isul4 Edward Osborne Wilson is a world leading biologist and internationally recognized as one of the planet's most articulate authorities on the interrelatedness ofknowledge disciplines and oflife systems. He is acknowledged for two interdisciplinary scientific disciplines (island biogeography and sociobiology), three unifying concepts for science and the humanities jointly (biophilia, biodiversity studies, and consilience), and one technological advance in the study ofglobal biodiversity (the Encyclopedia ofLife). A native of Alabama, Wilson grew up in Mobile and received his bachelor's and master's degrees in biology from The University of Alabama (1949,195o) and his DAMIAN WOETZEL doctoral degree in biology from Harvard University (1955)• Wilson has received more than too awards for his research on ants and biodiversity and for his writings addressed to both scientific and non-scientific audiences. He has received two Pulitzer Prizes in general non-fiction Damian Woetzel was a Principal Dancer at New York City for his books On Human Nature (1979) and The Ants (1991); Ballet and frequently performed internationally as a guest star and visiting artist with numerous companies including the Crafoord Prize from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences; the International Prize ofBiology of Japan; and the Nonino and Serono Prizes for Letters and Sciences ofItaly. His work in the sciences, letters, the environment and conservation earned him prominence in the annals of the zest Century. He was named one of the 25 most influential Americans by Time magazine and one of the world's too leading intellectuals by Foreign Policy magazine. He is the author of28 books including the recent novel, Anthill, set in the woods ofSouth Alabama; The Social Conquest ofEarth; the soon-to-be-released profile ofhis boyhood hometown, Why We Are Here: Mobile and the Spirit ofa Southern City. the Kirov Ballet and American Ballet Theatre, until his retirement from the stage inma.

EFTA00306970 | EFTA00306970 Martin Nowak and the Origin ofLife Martin Nowak has stirred up his share of trouble in academia — most recently by disproving a popular and long-held strategy of evolution. The debate played out in the pages of Nature, one of the world's premier scientific journals. Nowak and his co-authors, including eminent biologist E.O. Wilson, faced off against more than a hundred researchers who disputed Nowak's claims about a kin selection. In the realm of academic spats, it was epic. But Nowak appeared unfazed as he recounted the event at an informal Sunday morning gathering in Cambridge. "One-hundred and thirty-seven scientists signed a petition that we were completely wrong but no one has actually explained why were are completely wrong," he said. Nowak didn't set out to provoke these fights. Instead, an unlikely and seemingly innocuous tool has led him into them: mathematics. Nowak is an Austrian-born mathematician and biochemist who leads the Program for Evolutionary Dynamics at Harvard, a research team he founded in 2003. The team's work, largely supported by The Jeffrey Epstein Foundation, is aimed at bringing the rigor of mathematics to the wet-lab world of biology, especially evolution. Nowak sees the widespread application of math to biology as inevitable — "a kind of maturation process," as he told the New Scientist magazine last year. "Without a mathematical description, we can get a rough handle on a natural phenomenon but we can't fully understand it.... The beautiful thing about mathematics is that it can decide an argument. Some things are fiercely debated for years, but with mathematics the issues become clear." Indeed, Nowak sees signs that his fellow researchers are coming around to his ideas about kin selection — an evolutionary strategy that favors the survival of an individual's close relatives — and to the mathematics that underlies it. Ant debate: E. 0. Wilson is in his 80s and has studied insects, particularly ants, for a half-century. Ants are a hugely successful species, accounting for about 50 percent of the insect biomass on Earth. One of the traits that drives their success is altruism. Simply put, ants help each other out. And that hard-wired behavior gives the whole species an evolutionary edge over its competitors. Darwin struggled to reconcile this kind of altruistic behavior with his theory of natural selection, which characterized life a "struggle for existence" that pits one individual against another and favors selfish behaviors that guarantee reproductive EFTA00306970

EFTA00281516 | EFTA00281757 1. Benefits and Issues to Consider CI Credit 1.1 Environmental Issues Ownership and long-term leases reduce the frequency of relocation and associated construction activities. With longer-term commitments, there is greater return on energy efficiency and improvements that benefit occupants' well-being. Many decisions go into the selection of the project location,including issues of employee convenience and quality oflife, such as where workers reside and shop and the length of their commutes. Community improvements, from mass transit to cultural amenities, take time to develop. Longer and more stable tenancy improves the entire community. Economic Issues Relocation—including employee down time, labor and moving equipment, and assimilation time to a new location—entails significant costs. These costs can be avoided simply by remaining in t location. Long-term leases help ensure that the space will remain available for the tenant. 2. Related Credits Additional credits that will enhance the project's sustainability include locating in a LEED-certified building close to alternative transportation, investing in energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies, and selecting sustainable materials; see the following credits: ■ SS Credit t: Site Selection ■ SS Credit 3.2:Alternative Transportation—Public Transportation Access ■ EA Credit Optimize Energy Performance ■ MR Credit 3: Materials Reuse ■ MR Credit 4: Recycled Content • MR Credit s: Regional Materials • MR Credit 6: Rapidly Renewable Materials ■ MR Credit 7: Certified Wood ■ IEQ Credit 2: Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring • IEQ Credit 2: Increased Ventilation • IEQ Credit 3: Construction IndoorAir Quality Management Plan • IEQ Credit 4: Low-Emitting Materials • I EQ Credit 5: Indoor Chemical and Pollutant Source Control • IEQ Credit 6: Controllability of Systems ■ IEQ Credit 7: Thermal Comfort ■ IEQ Credit 8: Daylight and Views 3. Summary of Referenced Standards There are no standards referenced for this credit 4. Implementation The credit requirements are satisfied when the project area is either owned by the occupant or is currently included in a lease with a term of no less than 10 years. Tenant lease agreements with an option to renew the lease after less than so years do not meet the requirements of this credit. 218 LEED REFERENCE GUIDE FOR GREEN INTERIOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION 2009 EDITION EFTA00281757
