Thomas Jefferson Edwards (October 15, 1922 – October 23, 1969)[2] was an American singer and songwriter. His biggest-selling record was with the multi-million-selling song "It's All in the Game."[3]
Born in Richmond, Virginia, Edwards was an R&B singer most remembered for his 1958 hit "It's All in the Game", which appeared in the list of Billboard number-one singles of 1958. He sang his hit song on The Ed Sullivan Show, on September 14, 1958. The song was composed by then-future U.S. Vice-President Charles G. Dawes in 1911 as "Melody in A Major" with lyrics written in 1951 by Carl Sigman. Edwards originally recorded and charted the song in 1951, but it only climbed to no. 18. The better-known 1958 version was on the same record label (MGM) and was backed by the same orchestra leader (Leroy Holmes), but with a different arrangement more suited to the rock and roll-influenced style of the time. As well as topping the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, the song also got to number one on the R&B chart and the UK Singles Chart.[4] The single sold over 3.5 million copies globally, earning gold disc status.[4] The gold disc was presented in November 1958.[5] His second biggest hit was his 1959 re-recording of "Please, Mr. Sun" (written by Ramon Martin Getzov and Sid Frank), which reached #11. Also, "Love Is All We Need," which reached #15 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.
"That Chick's Too Young to Fry", written by Edwards, was a sizable hit for Louis Jordan.[6] Edwards began recording for the Top label in 1949.[2] When MGM heard his demo of it, they gave him a recording contract.[4]
Although Edwards recorded a number of other songs, none came close to achieving the same level of success, though several of his songs later became hits for other artists, such as "A Fool Such As I" by Elvis Presley, "It's All in the Game" by Cliff Richard and the Four Tops (Eddie Holman's version of it was the B-side of his hit "Hey There Lonely Girl"), "Please Love Me Forever" by Cathy Jean and the Roommates (1961) and by Bobby Vinton (1967), and "Morning Side of the Mountain" recorded by Donny and Marie Osmond.
He died from massive internal hemorrhaging due to esophageal varices linked to cirrhosis of the liver (alcoholism). This is per his death certificate.[7] Buried at the Quioccasin Baptist Church Cemetery in Henrico, Virginia.[8] His headstone says he was born 15 October 1922 but his death certificate says 12 October 1926. The 1930 census eludes that his correct birth year is 1922. The informant was his sister, Buena.
Edwards received a Virginia Highway Marker in 2008, erected near Pemberton Elementary School, off Quioccasin Road, in Henrico County. In July 2008, Richmond mayor L. Douglas Wilder signed a proclamation declaring October 15, 2008 "Tommy Edwards Day."
In September 2012, Cherry Red Records label Shout issued a 2-CD collection of Edwards's work, entitled It's All in the Game (The MGM Recordings 1958–1960), which comprised his first four MGM albums and singles from the two years following that single's huge success.
Country and western crossover album[edit]
In 1961, Edwards broke new ground by releasing a studio album entitled Golden Country Hits. His album of country interpretations predated Ray Charles' Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music and featured covers of some of the same song choices, including "You Don't Know Me," a popular crossover ballad by country songwriter Cindy Walker.

Production notes[edit]
The recording "Honestly and Truly" is only heard on compact disc in mono, because the original stereo master tape was either lost or destroyed.
The recording "Take These Chains From My Heart" is heard on compact disc in re-channeled stereo because, as with the above song, the original stereo master was lost or destroyed.
These recordings were issued on the MGM record label unless otherwise noted.
"It's All in the Game" (1958 version) was produced by Harry Myerson. He is assumed to be the producer for all tracks from this point forward, although this cannot be confirmed.
The orchestra was conducted and the arrangements were made on all records by LeRoy Holmes.

My friends and I hosted a baby shower over the weekend to great success! Our dear friend from California came home for the weekend so we could all celebrate the baby with them! We had a lot of fun making the decorations and planning the theme. We made pennants, strung hearts, made flower arrangements with hearts on a stick, and had so much fun spending time together. Here are a few snapshots of the day.
Decorative card stock
Hole punch
Exacto knife
We used paper that measured 8 1/2 x 11 as well as paper that was 12 x 12. I cut the smaller paper in half and cut out triangles two at a time. Measure from the center of the paper and cut a diagonal line out to the edge. Punch a hole in each corner and pull the string through. You can cut out letters for the pennants or leave them as is. It's a simple and fun task that really makes for a festive event. String up and enjoy!

Privacy by Design
I would like to believe. I want to believe.
I think most things should be proactive, that we should work to avoid the pretense of false dichotomie, and I love the idea of transparency. But then, I don't think anyone actually worries how I am dealing with their personal data because I don't collect personal data on this site.
I can't understand how transparency will work if proprietary code is held as secret and sacrosanct. There are many cases in law that show, either with forethought or inadvertenly, individual privacy is held in contempt when seen as being in conflict with commercial or govermental concerns. And then, of course there is "complexity fatigue." So how do these 7 foundational principles enter into web practices in a real and meaningful way?
The objectives of Privacy by Design — ensuring privacy and gaining personal control over one's information and, for organizations, gaining a sustainable competitive advantage — may be accomplished by practicing the 7 Foundational Principles.
1. Proactive not Reactive; Preventative not Remedial
The Privacy by Design (PbD) approach is characterized by proactive rather than reactive measures. It anticipates and prevents privacy-invasive events before they happen. PbD does not wait for privacy risks to materialize, nor does it offer remedies for resolving privacy infractions once they have occurred – it aims to prevent them from occurring. In short, Privacy by Design comes before-the-fact, not after.
2. Privacy as the Default Setting
We can all be certain of one thing – the default rules! Privacy by Design seeks to deliver the maximum degree of privacy by ensuring that personal data are automatically protected in any given IT system or business practice. If an individual does nothing, their privacy still remains intact. No action is required on the part of the individual to protect their privacy – it is built into the system, by default.
3. Privacy Embedded into Design
Privacy is embedded into the design and architecture of IT systems and business practices. It is not bolted on as an add-on, after the fact. The result is that it becomes an essential component of the core functionality being delivered. Privacy is integral to the system, without diminishing functionality.
4. Full Functionality – Positive-Sum, not Zero-Sum
Privacy by Design seeks to accommodate all legitimate interests and objectives in a positive-sum "win-win" manner, not through a dated, zero-sum approach, where unnecessary trade-offs are made. Privacy by Design avoids the pretense of false dichotomies, such as privacy vs. security, demonstrating that it is possible to have both.
5. End-to-End Security – Full Lifecycle Protection
Privacy by Design, having been embedded into the system prior to the first element of information being collected, extends throughout the entire lifecycle of the data involved, from start to finish. This ensures that at the end of the process, all data are securely destroyed, in a timely fashion. Thus, Privacy by Design ensures cradle to grave, lifecycle management of information, end-to-end.
6. Visibility and Transparency – Keep it Open
Privacy by Design seeks to assure all stakeholders that whatever the business practice or technology involved, it is in fact, operating according to the stated promises and objectives, subject to independent verification. Its component parts and operations remain visible and transparent, to users and providers alike. Remember, trust but verify.
7. Respect for User Privacy – Keep it User-Centric
Above all, Privacy by Design requires architects and operators to keep the interests of the individual uppermost by offering such measures as strong privacy defaults, appropriate notice, and empowering user-friendly options. Keep it user-centric.

Benchmarking transparency in government's use of evidence
There were important moves in the last parliament to promote both the better use of evidence and justification of policy decisions (e.g. the creation of What Works Centres and the Office for Budget Responsibility). However, we are still some way from a transparent, systematic method for communicating evidence across the range of government policymaking.
In 2015, Sense About Science, the Institute for Government and the Alliance for Useful Evidence, produced a framework that offers a rapid assessment tool to rate government departments on how transparent they are about the use of evidence in policy decisions. This project will undertake a comparative scoring of government departments against a transparency framework to identify good and bad practice. The aim of the resulting benchmark and public commentary is to change behaviour across government towards showing its workings, and therefore to lay the ground for more expert review, research input and deliberative discussion with the public about the evidence behind policies.

Maker Library Network
Maker Library Network (MLN) which a British Council project commissioned as part of Connect ZA, a programme running throughout 2014 & 15 which aims to create connections between young creatives and audiences in the UK and South Africa.
Conceived by Daniel Charny and developed with From Now On, the MLN is a new initiative that promotes collaboration and knowledge-sharing between designers and makers.
The programme will culminate with an event to showcase the achievements of the first year, with the ambition to expand into a world-wide network.
The Concept
Maker Libraries are creative spaces that combine reading, showing and making. This new type of library, whilst encouraging local development, is also part of a new international mentoring network.
When a Maker Library (ML) is set up, the librarian receives a starter kit which includes a blueprint and materials budget to build a library, a core set of books, a growing resource of open designs and access to a panel of mentors via an online platform.
The Spaces
Maker Libraries are workspaces defined by three key elements: a library, a makespace and a gallery. Librarians in each country will be able to share and adapt the MLN principles for their local conditions and location; whether in their studio, in the corner of a cafe, or in a purpose built travelling vehicle.
Workspace, Hout bay
Workspace is proudly the fifth Maker Library in the World – Alongside other Maker Libraries in London, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Cape Town, we have been recognized for our creative and edgy thinking. Our interpretation has culminated in the "Travelling Wheel- brary". Using old cable drums, this structure will ultimately contain a webcam and screen along with shelves to display books. The idea is that the whole of Workspace is the Makerspace component of the Maker Library and therefore the connecting aspect needs to be mobile.

Fans of comic books and action gaming are likely already keeping track of news surrounding The Amazing Spider-Man, and the development team is already opening up about some of the changes they are planning on making to the existing formula. The name of their game is giving players more combat and traversal options than they're used to, which will hopefully be enough to bring a breath of fresh air to Beenox's time with the franchise.
Designing a movie tie-in game brings more than a healthy dose of skepticism, so The Amazing Spider-Man may be seen to have the odds stacked against it from the outset. And given the web-slinger's fairly legendary place in American comic book history, it goes without saying that games centered around Peter Parker have become somewhat of a known quantity. The Amazing Spider-Man's VGA trailer showed the kind of combat and design that gamers have come to expect from the developer.
The game's iconic concept artwork showed that the approach to realism and rebooting that the feature film seems to embody will be adopted by the game as well, but exactly how Beenox was going to make this game stand apart from others - and open-world games like Mirror's Edge - hasn't been explained.
On the game's official Facebook page, Rodolphe Recca, the game's lead designer answered a fan query about exactly what new mechanics would be introduced:
"[W]e introduce an all-new gameplay mechanic called the Web Rush, which gives players real-time navigational and combat choices. Web Rush can be triggered on the fly, at any moment and immediately presents you with a variety of situational choices, letting you pull off Spidey's signature moves like never before."
Giving players more options is always a good thing, but exactly how this 'Web Rush' mechanic will be implemented is unclear. Does it resemble the wealth of attacks and abilities seen in Arkham City's hotkey-combat, or is it merely a gameplay overlay? Since the gameplay seen so far is extremely familiar we can only hope that the mechanic introduces more than just a cosmetic change.
Beenox has certainly proven that they know how to make a competent Spider-Man game, but unfortunately they most recently showed that creating a substandard one is just as easy. Having a game style that doesn't reinvent the wheel isn't in itself a crime, but when so much time is being spent to cement Marvel as a major entertainment player, delivering underwhelming games isn't helping.
What do you think about the gameplay that's been shown so far? Do you trust that Beenox and Activision can deliver a game as good as the movie, or should expectations be lowered? We'll keep you posted on any more announcements on the upcoming release.
The Amazing Spider-Man releases June 26, 2012, for Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, 3DS and DS.
