CREATE_R8_DATABASES=1 will enable ODS 48, which provides significant performance improvements.
When a new application is created in a Lotus Notes 7, 8 or 8.5 client or on a Lotus Domino 7, 8 or 8.5 server, the on-disk structure (ODS) remains at 43, which is the ODS version introduced in Notes/Domino 6. The on-disk structure has been upgraded in Notes/Domino 8 to the new ODS version of 48. However, it is not enabled by default for new or upgraded applications. This default behavior deliberately avoids forcing ODS upgrades during DB compact, which can be unexpectedly time-consuming. Running 'compact' against the application will not upgrade the ODS unless CREATE_R8_DATABASES=1.
This setting has no effect on DB2-enabled Notes databases.
There is no UI equivalent for this setting.
If CREATE_R8_DATABASES is absent or set to 0, then the file format of any new or compacted database will default to ODS version 43
Add CREATE_R8_DATABASES=1 to NOTES.INI to enable ODS 48 (Version 8) as the default. New applications and updated applications (via 'load compact -c') will now be upgraded to the new ODS. This is strongly recommended because of the significant performance improvements built into ODS 48.
This configuration is valid for Domino 8.0 and beyond
Changes to this setting are dynamically detected. A server restart is not necessary.

On-Disk Structure (ODS) version for Notes/Domino 8 and how is it enabled
Domino Configuration Tuner:
This setting is included in the DCT catalog of best practices.
Please explain the benefit of this more clearly. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time that use of a new ODS has been turned off by default. Why the change? Particularly given that the "strongly recommended"setting is to enable ODS 48, this seems very odd to me.
I do not see how creation of new databases using a new ODS has anything at all to do with forcing ODS upgrades. Under what circumstances would someone find that a time-consuming ODS upgrade occurs without the user actually wanting it to happen?
P.S. I think "time-consuming" is better usage than "time consuming" { Link }
Hello Richard on 4/10/2008,
The original post included
"This behavior deliberately avoids forcing ODS upgrades, which can be time consuming."
I've changed this to
"This default behavior deliberately avoids forcing ODS upgrades during DB compact, which can be unexpectedly time-consuming."
Thanks for the suggestions,

Here is a quick roundup of some more ladies who joined Nina Dobrev on the red carpet for the 'Let's Be Cops' LA premiere held at the ArcLight Hollywood on Thursday (August 7) in Hollywood, California.
Hannah Simone: The young star opted for a navy and black fitted RVN look, making her exposed midriff the focal point. Simple styling, including her lust-worthy strappy Giuseppe Zanotti sandals and that glossy red lip, grabbed my attention first.
Julianne Hough: Opting to go short and sassy, the blonde actress/dancer wore an all-black look featuring tailored separates consisting of a racer-front top and shorts. I would've loved a pop of colour via the heels – yellow to make a huge statement – but Julianne opted to keep it tonal, selecting black strappy sandals.

Ground Breaker Brewing Releases 2015 Fresh Hop Meridian Pale Ale/
Last weekend Ground Breaker made their annual trek to Goschie Farms in Silverton, Oregon to pick up 150 pounds of fresh Meridian hops. Most of the brewery crew cut their Labor Day weekend short to take advantage of this once a year opportunity, and we thank them.
The fresh hop version of Ground Breaker's Pale Ale is unlike anything else the brewery offers. Fresh Meridian hops add an herbal character and brings their lemon-candy characteristic forward in a far different way from brewing with kilned hops.
Fresh Hop Meridian Pale Ale will be available in bottles and on draft Wednesday, September 16th, in the Ground Breaker Gastropub. Bottles and a few kegs will be headed to retailers in Oregon and Washington later the same week.

With 17 seconds remaining, Jeronne Maymon stepped to the free throw line with an opportunity to put Texas A&M away.
The rest is history as the redshirt senior couldn't get either of his two attempts to fall and the Aggies would end up winning 57-56 on a 3-pointer by sophomore Antwan Space.
"It's very hard, very upsetting," Maymon said, "but I have to get back in they gym and work on it."
While Maymon's attempts carried the most weight in the Vols' defeat, they were not the only shots from the charity stripe to go begging as UT shot 58.3 percent from the line in the second half.
Hot topic: The whistles were frequent, and the boo's from Vol fans were deafening inside Thompson-Boling Arena.
In total, Tennessee saw themselves get called for 21 fouls, but the most memorable calls were several offensive fouls whistled due to illegal screens.
"That is the first time all year we have been called for that many offensive fouls," head coach Cuonzo Martin said. I thought it was strange, but I have to go back and watch film to be exact. I thought it was a little uncharacteristic because our guys are usually solid in setting screens."
The offensive fouls clearly affected the Vols offense, something that senior guard Antonio Barton acknowledged following the game.
"We were playing the refs," Barton said. "We were playing not to commit an offensive foul, or foul the ball on defense. We can't play like that."
Spotlight: Saturday wasn't the reigning SEC Player of the Week's day.
Jordan McRae found himself watching a majority of the first half – a half in which he scored only three points – from the bench as he picked up two quick fouls in the first 6:24 of the game.
The 14 minutes of downtime affected the senior guard's game in the second half as he went 1-for-6 from the floor – 2-for-8 in the game – and finished with nine points, tying a season-low.
As shown by Saturday's offensive performance in the second half that saw the Vols get outscored 39-24, Tennessee's offense isn't the same without their All-SEC guard, but junior guard Josh Richardson thinks that the team has to do a better job of not always relying on his production.
"He's our best scorer, everybody knows it, so we just got to learn how to adjust to it and we didn't do it well today," Richardson said.
The other guys: The Aggies were led by junior guard Jamal Jones, who scored a game-high 23 points on 8-of-19 shooting.
Outside the box score: At the 11:18 mark in the first half, football time and basketball time in Tennessee crossed paths.
During the media timeout, the 14 early enrollees of the 2014 recruiting class took to the center of the hardwood, joined by their head coach, Butch Jones, and were greeted by 18,079 Volunteer faithful.
Say something: When asked about his thoughts after Space's three went in, Barton said, "I was shocked, I'd never had that happen to me ever in my life. Just seeing it go into the net didn't seem real."
By the numbers
20.6: The Vols shot 20.6 percent worse from the free throw line in the second half (58.3) then they did in the first half (88.9).
2: The Aggies scored two points in the final 9:34 of the first half. During that span they did not make a field goal.
15: Redshirt senior Jeronne Maymon corralled 15 rebounds in 35 minutes. The next closest to that mark was the Aggies Kourtney Roberson, who grabbed six.
Up next: The Vols host the Auburn Tigers on Wednesday inside Thompson-Boling Arena at 7 p.m.

Searching for Clinton's big idea
So far, there's no sign that Clinton or her advisers are having the "what if" conversations about policy ideas just yet. One longtime Democratic operative, speaking anonymously to give a candid read of the situation, says Clinton's advisers haven't reached out for ideas yet because that would require acknowledging that she's running — even though everything else about the book tour suggests that she is.
There are places in the book where Clinton teases her readers with some broad themes that wouldn't sound out of place in a 2016 campaign — a taste of everything from inequality to the plight of the middle class to gridlock in Washington.
"Citizens and leaders alike have choices to make about the country we want to live in and leave to the next generation," she writes at the end of the book. "Middle-class incomes have been declining for more than a decade, and poverty has increased as almost all the benefits of growth have gone to those at the very top. We need more good jobs that reward hard work with rising wages, dignity, and a ladder to a better life. Investments to build a truly 21st-century economy with more opportunity and less inequality. An end to the political dysfunction in Washington that holds back our progress and demeans our democracy."
But policy advisers who are close to the Clintons argue that the book doesn't really break new ground for her — even in the few policy discussions that go beyond her record as secretary of state — so it shouldn't be seen as a road test for 2016 ideas.
"She's worked on income inequality for a very long time," including the 2008 campaign, said Neera Tanden, who was Clinton's policy director in that campaign and is now the president of the Center for American Progress. "They're not indicative of a campaign. They're the issues of her life, and that's what this book tells us."
Gene Sperling, who served as an economic adviser in both the Clinton and Obama administrations, argues that "many of the ideas she discusses from inequality to women and girls to jobs to early childhood education come from decades of a road well traveled with the type of hands-on policy leadership you just saw from her at a global level at State."
There are some themes that would be sure to come up, even if they're not the centerpiece of the campaign. On foreign policy, Clinton writes about America's place in the world as the "indispensable nation" — noting that "while there are few problems in today's world that the United States can solve alone, there are even fewer that can be solved without the United States."
That can't be the central theme of a campaign, especially since Democratic voters aren't likely to put foreign policy at the top of their priority lists. But Clinton can use that viewpoint to define her approach to foreign policy, as she did in her CNN town hall interview to answer her critics on the attacks in Benghazi, Libya: "When they say the United States shouldn't be in these dangerous places, I just fundamentally disagree. I don't think we should be retreating from the world."
And Clinton makes clear in the book — and repeatedly in interviews on the book tour — that the advancement of women's rights and opportunities is an important subject that was undervalued not only by many foreign leaders but by Obama administration officials as well. Clinton clearly feels free to talk about these issues now that she's left the administration, and Democrats say they expect the advancement of women to be a natural theme of a Clinton campaign — though not necessarily the central one.
Income inequality, however, has been an increasingly important part of Clinton's speeches as the topic has gained importance among Democrats — not just Obama but other liberal stars like Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
In a Facebook video promoting the book, Clinton said the nation needs to deal with the "cancer of inequality." And in a recent speech to the New America Foundation, Clinton talked about how the well-being of families — and the strength of community institutions like schools, churches and civic organizations — help determine how many people can build comfortable lives.
It's that prescription — "healthy families and inclusive communities" — that suggests that Clinton could drive the inequality debate forward, according to Anne-Marie Slaughter, president of the New America Foundation and Clinton's former director of policy planning at the State Department.
"Her notion of family is very expansive," said Slaughter. "This idea that you start with the family, with the community and you build from there — you can't have a successful society or prosperous economy without digging into the roots. I'd not heard that before."
Those themes could help Clinton rally Democrats and build on the momentum of other efforts already underway, like Obama's White House Summit on Working Families and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's economic agenda for women and families.
Even so, Clinton would have to spell out what she thinks the federal government could do about those issues and what it couldn't do. And so far, the few hints she's dropped suggest that her prescriptions for improving working families' lives would be cautious. When asked in the CNN town hall interview whether paid maternity leave should be a required benefit throughout the country, she said, "I think, eventually, it should be" — but not now "because I don't think, politically, we could get it now."
Clinton's biggest challenge would be navigating the tensions between Democrats who think addressing income inequality is the biggest challenge of our time and those who think it's better just to focus on building a strong middle class, not to worry about what rich people are earning.
Boushey, for example, argues that economic inequality has larger economic effects, and that "if you look at the economy broadly, that's the most important thing that is going on." But that's not a universally shared view. James Carville, who rose to fame in Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign, recommends a "laser-like focus on rebuilding and revitalizing the middle class," adding that he's "more into getting incomes up" than worrying about the difference between incomes.
And Third Way's Kessler argues that "the middle class decides every election. They want to believe that there are jobs that will allow them to have the kind of lives that they expected to have. Everything else is a sideshow."
It may just be a matter of emphasis, though Democrats will be watching closely to see what balance she strikes.
"It can't just be inequality (though she'll talk about it) because, while people think inequality's out of control, their real gripe is that it prevents them and people like them from getting ahead," Ruy Teixeira, author of "The Emerging Democratic Majority," said in an email. "In other words, it's about opportunity and mobility, not just fairness (though they do think it's unfair)."
Regardless of how Clinton frames it, most Democrats say a sluggish economy would be the most important unfinished business she would have to tackle when Obama leaves the White House.
"I don't expect there to be sudden, miraculous growth in the next 18 months where everyone would say, 'Everything is solved,'" said Kessler.

Published as: "Ultrafast optical demagnetization manipulates nanoscale spin structure in domain walls", Nature Communications 3, 1100 (2012).
When a magnetized material is bombarded by a femtosecond infra-red laser pulse, the magnetization of the material drops within a few hundreds of femtoseconds. In a study using ultrashort X-ray pulses delivered by FLASH we investigate the process of ultrafast demagnetization in a sample exhibiting nanometer-sized magnetic domains. In the pump-probe experiment the evolution of the magnetization is monitored with femtosecond time resolution and nanometer spatial resolution. The results together with simulations suggest that superdiffusive spin transport between adjacent magnetic domains contributes to the ultrafast demagnetization and significantly changes the spin structure at the domain walls.
In 1996 Beaurepaire et al. reported on an experiment [1] which opened a new field of magnetism research. It was observed that the magnetization of a nickel film after being pumped by an optical femtosecond laser pulse drops on a timescale of a few hundred femtoseconds. This magnetization change is orders of magnitude faster than expected by classical magnetization dynamics typically taking place on the nano- and picosecond timescale. Since the discovery of the ultrafast demagnetization process, its mechanism has been intensely debated. So far, most experimental as well as theoretical work has focused on homogeneous samples in order to understand the intrinsic demagnetization mechanisms. In particular, the transport of energy and angular momentum between the light pulse used for excitation, the electrons, their spin configuration and the crystal lattice with its phonon excitations have to be addressed. The electron spin is intimately linked to the samples magnetization.
Additional extrinsic demagnetization channels due to a heterogeneous sample structure and resulting interfaces have been considered so far only for layered thin-film samples with interfaces between ferromagnetic and paramagnetic layers [2]. Recently, it was proposed in a theoretical study, that superdiffusive spin transport could significantly contribute to the ultrafast demagnetization [3]. This concept is based on the notion that the lifetimes, velocities and, consequentially, the mean free paths for hot electrons in metals are spin dependent if the electrons move in a magnetized region. As electrons carrying the majority spin possess a much higher mobility than the minority electrons, the majority electrons may preferentially leak from a ferromagnetic layer into an adjacent layer leading to a demagnetization of the ferromagnetic layer. Moreover the effective transport of spin may even change the magnetization in the destination layer [4].
In our study we investigate ultrafast demagnetization in a thin film Co/Pt multilayer sample which is magnetized in the out-of plane direction. In the remanent equilibrium state the magnetic film exhibits a nanoscale labyrinth-like pattern of magnetic domains with the magnetization pointing either "up" or "down" (Fig. 1a). The boundaries between the domains, the domain walls, are purely magnetic in nature as the sample is laterally homogeneous with respect to elemental composition.
The pump-probe experiment has been performed at the free electron laser FLASH. The sample was pumped by a 70 fs long infra-red (IR) laser pulse and after a certain delay time (0-15 ps), the magnetic state of the sample was probed by a 100 fs long soft X-ray pulse. The ultrashort pump and probe pulses allow to investigate the evolution of the magnetization on a sub-ps timescale. The magnetic sensitivity is obtained via the X-ray magnetic circular dichroism effect. This effect gives rise to a magnetization-dependent X-ray absorption if the wavelength of the radiation is tuned to a suitable absorption edge of the magnetized material. Due to the alternating arrangement of oppositely magnetized domains, the magnetic layer acts as a diffraction grating and intensity maxima on the side of the directly transmitted radiation are observed in the diffraction pattern of the sample. Changes in the shape of this diffraction ring can be used to identify modifications in the domain arrangement with nanometer resolution.
As depicted in Fig. 1b, the intensity of the diffraction ring drastically reduces after the sample is pumped by the IR pulse. This finding is directly explained by the ultrafast demagnetization of the magnetic material. In addition, we observe a reduction of the scattering ring radius by about 4 %, which must be directly related to spatial changes in the magnetic domain pattern.
In order to explain our observation, we have performed Monte-Carlo simulations of the spin-dependent lateral motion of hot electrons in the magnetic film characterized by the presence of magnetic domains (Fig. 2). The simulations reveal that hot majority electrons which diffuse in the domain pattern get trapped when they have crossed a domain wall. The reason for this behaviour is their reduced mobility once they have become a minority electron by entering the adjacent domain. The accumulation of minority spin at the walls leads to a magnetic softening of the boundaries. A simulation of the scattering experiment shows that this domain wall softening explains the reduction of the diffraction ring radius.
We anticipate that it will be possible to tailor time constants of optical demagnetization by variation of the domain size or by specific nanostructuring [5]. Given the tremendous advances in the use of magnetic interfaces for electronic and spintronic applications in the past decades, one may envision the utilization of superdiffusive spin transport across ferromagnetic domain walls for ultrafast magneto-optical devices in the future.

Brighton based artist Chris Kettle is exhibiting at the gallery as part of the Dada+8 exhibition which runs until the 24th December. Throughout his artistic career, Chris has become well known as a still life artist and adds a modern twist to this age-old genre. We meet Chris to find out a little bit more...
What is the role of the artist in society?
It would be difficult not to evolve?...I think we all evolve during our lives even if it's a steady evolution - it keeps things interesting, I like watching other Artists develop too, I'd be disappointed if they didn't, but we all evolve in our own time.
How has your art evolved? How do you see it evolving in the future?
Art means a lot to me as it's so completely infused with my life – I've been doing it for a long time now so it's almost part of my DNA... I'm conscious of overplaying Art's importance - but if it was taken away I'm sure we would be hugely deprived. I think we need the mystery and magic of Art in all its forms.
In your opinion, what makes a memorable piece of art?
Art is so endlessly varied, complex and personal in what 'moves' you, but some paintings have a depth and soul that can be awe inspiring. Generally it's a combination of technique, concept, aesthetic quality and mystery.....the greatest art defies fashion and transcends time - but to find out you may have to wait 100 years...
Where do you find your inspiration?
I think good Artists can make Art out of anything, but I find standing in front of a blank canvas is hugely inspiring - you don't want to stand there for too long, it's where the challenge begins and you have to hit it with energy, confidence and hope. Inspiration often comes disguised as hard work.
How do you know when a piece of work is completed?
I think the paintings I produce must somehow surpass the initial vision that I've had in my head, if it does and I've pushed the painting as far as I can, (or as far as it needs) then it's finished....for now.

This is the second time that I have used King's Tree Service. The first time he also did some tree trimming and took the extra step of cleaning up some debris (that he didn't create) so that it wouldn't go into the pool. Wow! Talk about going the extra out and gave me an estimate. He came when he said he would and he scheduled it and it got done quickly and thoroughly. I would definitely use him again. He is professional and is "old school" in terms of doing the job right. He has integrity and seems to care about what he is doing and how he does it. It's not often you find that any morel. He knows a lot about trees and can provide some guidance if you need it. Thanks for a job well done!
These guys were great. 4 people showed up and got right to work. We had an old broken lemon tree that was a bit difficult to remove since it was close to a window and our neighbors house and window. They cut it right out, ground the stump so you can't tell it was there and also trimmed up other trees. Very professional and cleaned up everything when they were done. I would highly recommend them for anyone that needs a similar service. Great Job!
I have used King's Tree Service at least three times since they came highly recommended to me years ago by a Master Gardener. They have helped me with trees at different properties and I have recommended them several times to others with full confidence they would do an excellent job for them as well.
Friendliest Tree service! Darcy and his crew took great care to trim my trees quickly and then cleaned up well afterwards. Great price for wonderful work!
With so many years of experience in the business, our company is your
source for the highest quality of tree service.

Featuring rising stars Laurence O'Fuarain ('Vikings', 'Don't Go') and IFTA nominated Sarah Caroll, Mulligan's directorial debut opens in Irish Cinemas on April 5th.
Created by Alan Mulligan and producer by brother Anthony Mulligan, alongside producer Tim Palmer ('Into The West', 'Patrick's Day'), 'The Limit Of' premiered to acclaim at the Galway Film Fleadh. It's a story rooted in Alan Mulligan's career as a young banker during the Celtic Tiger years and its crushing aftermath. The film captures the rapacious greed of the financial world and society's ever-growing need for control. Mulligan's slow, deliberate style builds a fever pitch of intensity as the film reaches its shocking climax.
Speaking about her experience making the film, actor Sarah Carroll told IFTN:
''From my first scenes with Laurence I knew we were making a special film. To have been nominated for an IFTA for my performance was an amazing experience but now for the film to be getting a cinema release is the real cast and crew award and something I'm very proud of"
Speaking about the release, lead actor Laurence O'Fuarain said:
"I fell in love with James's character from my first reading of Alan's script. It was a unique opportunity to play a character from my home town, which reflected the new city and pressures that many of my peers now work in. I cannot wait for Irish audiences to meet James in Cinemas from April 5th."
'The Limit Of' features breakout performances for both lead actors and saw Carroll nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 2018 IFTA Film & Drama awards. RTÉ critic Michael Doherty praised the film describing it as "a smart, contemporary thriller with a striking performance from Sarah Carroll."
Sentioar will release 'THE LIMIT OF' in Irish Cinemas on April 5th.

freedom, God's glory, God's will, hypocrisy, John 6:15, liberty, man's glory, man's will, tyranny, word of God
How often these two things live in contrast one to another. Man wants to be led by man (Exodus 20:18-21; 1 Samuel 8:6-9). Even if for supposedly good reasons (the men of Israel wanting to be free from Roman bondage). He can control other men through a variety of means and he knows it.
In the world today, politicians are controlled by the funding they receive. In business the customer drives policy because they are always right. In health care government control competes with individual choice.
In religion one man gathers men unto himself and calls it success. Another teaches platitudes and homilies to please the masses. Others promote a health and wealth gospel. Another teaches the word of God without apology.
In John 6:15 we find Jesus confronting man's desires for Him and His ministry. Jesus had a simple response to what He knew man was planning. The Jews who wanted to get out from under the religious tyranny and hypocrisy as well as the government corruption and oppression wanted a king new king. Sounds familiar doesn't it? In the world today many have simply given up and gone to live their lives without God. So disgusted with the deception many focus instead upon maintaining their liberty thinking that is the best they can do.
What freedom we have in Christ though! Looking upon the things of Heaven and God's kingdom instead of the things of this world for pleasure and success provides mankind with freedom and liberty unparalleled! Jesus simply departed those who would make Him a worldly king favoring His heavenly position, desiring only to please the Father. Learning from Jesus, we too should shun the worlds false teachers and flock to biblical expositors, teachers of God's word. If we detect sinfulness, a false teacher, or some other pressure by mankind to submit to His will, simply leave the room. That is what Jesus did in John 6:15.
When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.

Tour at New Belgium.
We show up a bit early which allowed us to take some pics of the outside of the place. We go in and we meet up with our awesome VIP guide Penelope. She asks if there is anything special we'd like to see, I ask if we can we pretty please head to the top of the fermenters outside which she says is no prob what so ever, so I'm stoked. Dan asks her if she could do her best to make me cry by the end of the tour. This stems from our first NB tour on BT II. You want to know what went down, read this: BT II New Belgium. She said she'd do her best. Then she almost got to me by telling me about how long she's been working for them and how it's changed her life. I'm immediately jealous of Penelope, but it's a good jealous. Now 3 of the guys haven't been on the fantastic journey we're about to embark on so we ask her to start from the beginning and clue Ed, Kelly and Rob in on how New Belgium got its start. I have no problem hearing all of this a second time, and hope in the future to hear it a few more if I'm lucky enough to. We go in and check out the first mash tun, kettle, and bottler that they started with, followed up with visit to the computer room where everything is monitored and controlled. We head up the stairs to check out the mash tun, and kettle room where we stop and have another beer to get us through the tour. Next stop is my request of visiting the top of the fermenters. This is not
only kick ass to me because of the view up there but, the film that inspired Beer Trip, American Beer got to go up there, and well it's kicks ass! I can't believe how much this place has grown since we were here 4 years ago and you can really see a difference and standing on containers holding a few million bottles of New Belgium beer is extremely helpful. Speaking of bottles of New Belgium, we head over to the bottling building that was new for us to check out. We go in and I'm immediately shocked on how many bottles are flying around this place. Of all the brewery tours I've only seen one other working bottling line and this was probably quadruple the size of that one.
I couldn't pull my eyes away from it, it was just a fascinating operation to watch, and I would have no problem sitting there with a 12ver of Fat Tire and watch those bottles do what they have to do to get filled. We walked back into the main brewery where we allowed to do the spiral slide. On our first visit I for some reason opted out of going down the slide and I wasn't going to let that opportunity pass me by again. It was even cooler than I thought! Just a very cool experience to say the very least. Now that we were slightly past two hours into our tour and we know Penelope needs to eat and move on with her day, as I'm sure she wasn't planning on us taking up half her day. She could not of been better to us if she tried. We showed her a small token of our appreciation by giving her a hand made by Kelly counter balance bottle holder and a bottle of New Glarus Red for her to enjoy later. Can't thank Adam enough for setting us up with Penelope, and can't thank Penelope enough for showing us another amazing trip to New Belgium. If you are anywhere near Ft. Collins do yourself a favor and go see the incredible people of New Belgium, I promise you won't be disappointed.
We left New Belgium but not until we luck out and catch a food cart that happened to be located in the parking lot. We grab a quick bite and head over to Odell Brewing Company which is all of a 3 minute drive from New Belgium.
We meet my friend Melissa and we head into O'Dell's. We meet John who had been exchanging email and phone calls with Dan. We got the chance to meet John and Doug O'Dell about month or so before our trip which was extremely cool, but now we are at the brewery and it's even better! We go into the new tap room and I have to say it is really sweet on the inside with plenty of room, much nicer than our last visit. We spot Doug on our way in and Dan went back to the EM-50 to grab his No. 37 bottle of Wood Cut that he's had for quite a while. Doug O'Dell was cool enough to sign the bottle for Dan and I know for sure what bottle of beer Dan will be having on his 37th birthday. The smile on Dan's face after Doug signed that bottle was priceless. Now John is serving us up, asking us what we want and we didn't waste a single second thinking about it.
John hooked us up and we were enjoying talking beer and enjoying each other's company. John then took us on a private tour and we got to take a nice look, as everybody inside the brewery was pretty busy making beer. We got to go into the coolers where they kept the hops and let's just say I'm pretty sure I had relations with a very large container of hops. I was getting upset when people were knocking the hop residue off of me I wanted that lovely hop aroma on me as long as possible. We make our way back to the tap room, and John starts busting out some of the Wood Cut series and let's just say those beers are just absolutely wonderful. He kept pouring them and we kept drinking them. Everything we had was simply wonderful and we couldn't have had a better time, when all of a sudden John comes out of the back cooler with a case of Mountain Reserve for us to take home. Man how awesome is that! What a wonderful stop with great people and fabulous beer! We made our purchases and headed off for a long, long driveup to Pinedale, Wyoming.
We all hop into the RV and get settled in for our trek north to the rocky dirt pile known as Wyoming. Along the way we stop off for dinner at a place called Bitter Creek Brewing in Rock Springs, Wy. Nice place with pricey food and decent beer. We finally pull into Pinedale at 11pm and enjoy a good nights sleep!
Another great day with the stops at New Belgium and O'Dell's who both treated us better than we deserve, however it is greatly appreciated by each of us. We're lucky guys and this is only day 2! I have no reason to believe there won't be even more greatness on Day 3! Yeah I'm spoiled!

DENR threatens to fine Duke Energy for Eden coal ash spill
DENR: Duke had no permit to discharge stormwater into Dan River
State officials issued two violation notices to Duke Energy Friday following the coal ash spill in Eden. One threatens fines, while the other recommends fines.
The state Department of Environment and Natural Resources said Friday that the two notices relate to separate violations of wastewater and storm-water regulations. The agency could levy fines against Duke for the violations, but the amount has not yet been determined.
One notice said Duke didn't apply for or have a required permit to discharge stormwater from the power plant to the Dan River. Under state law, a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit is required to discharge stormwater from power plants to state waters.
DENR officials asked Duke to respond to the notice within 30 days, and further enforcement, including a fine, is possible.
The other notice, which recommends fines, lists multiple violations, including failure to properly operate and maintain the ash pond, failure to dispose of solids removed from the treatment process, failure to take all reasonable steps to prevent discharge and violation of water quality standards for surface waters.
The spill began Feb. 2 when an old pipe under a 27-acre coal ash dump at a Duke power plant in Eden collapsed. It took the company nearly a week to fully plug the leak.
Roughly 39,000 tons of coal ash and 24-27 million gallons of wastewater was dumped into the Dan River, and ash was found up to 70 miles downstream in varying depths.
Public health officials have advised people to avoid contact with the river water and to not eat fish.

I am in love with this megatek!<3
I have been using it for about 2 weeks or so. I had my hair braided up in my baggy that I demonstrated on youtube. When I took down my hair to Shampoo and DC I could immediately tell that there was significant growth! I did not take any measurements but I could tell there was a big difference!
I am soo tempted to straighten it so I can get a trim ans see where I am. I should be very close to BSL...
I did a clear rinse this past week and did a video on it But WMM(windows movie maker) is acting retarded... But anywayz, I cant believe that I forgot about clear rinses! I made my hair so shiny and I could see that my curls were defined better! I will never forget about rinses ever again.

Okay, so you've been introduced to my wee obsession with the turquoise polka-dot business. Here's one more idea (harkening back to the invitation suite, even!), that i have shamelessly stolen lovingly borrowed from Mrs. Lime (from back in the day when Weddingbee wasn't corporate and scary):
She calls it "Placecard Lasagna"!
(Thanks, Mrs. Lime! And thanks Martha for the inspiration.)
How adorable is this? (I promised i'd stop using the "D" word.) Little trays for your escort cards, held together by ribbon? Precious! And easy, to boot! All it requires is some looong cardstock and a hole punch. Even dummy me can do it (…well. Check back after it's done for confirmation.)!
So my personal inspiration for this little project?
(Via the Ribbon Retreat.)
Turquoise polka-dotted ribbon. Obvs.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society Research Summary
High blood pressure (also known as hypertension) is the medical term for when the force of blood against your blood vessel walls is too high. We know that using medication to lower high blood pressure can prevent heart attacks and strokes. But healthcare professionals often worry that prescriptions for lowering high blood pressure can sometimes lower it too much. This can put you at risk for becoming dizzy and falling.
Falls are a serious problem in older adults. In 2014, falls caused 2.8 million emergency room visits, 800,000 hospitalizations, and 27,000 deaths, and cost Medicare an estimated $31.3 billion.
Although some healthcare experts suspect that taking high blood pressure medication over time is linked to falls and fractures, very little research supports that belief. In fact, at least two major studies examining blood pressure reduction did not find an increased risk for falls among people taking medication to reduce high blood pressure. Other studies have not shown an increase in fracture risk for people taking medication for high blood pressure—in fact, some studies suggest that high blood pressure medicines may actually reduce the risk for fractures.
Researchers decided to learn more about the links between falls, high blood pressure, and high blood pressure medication in older women. They published their study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. Continue reading

The Theme tab of the site context menu allows you to select the theme for your site, and to set theme-specific settings.
Select a Theme
When you navigate to the Theme tab, the currently active theme will appear on the top of the page. If you did not select a theme when adding the site, this will be the Default theme.
A large image of the active appears on the left, with the theme Title, creator, and a button for Theme Settings on the right.
Below the current theme are buttons for all other installed themes. The buttons have a small image of the theme in action, the theme name, and a link to the creator of the theme.
To switch themes, click on the theme which you want to use. It should highlight slightly in gray, with a checkbox in the lower right-hand corner of the theme button.
Click the Save button in the upper right-hand corner of the window to save changes. Click the Cancel button to leave without saving changes.
Theme Settings
Theme settings allow you to customize aspects of the site's theme, such as adding a logo to the top or writing footer text.
To edit the settings of your selected theme, click on the button labeled edit theme settings to the right of the current theme thumbnail (highlighted with an arrow in the below image).
Note that your settings for a specific theme on a site will be saved even if you change themes. For example, if you customized the footer for the default theme, then switched to using The Daily for a while, then switched back to the default theme, your custom footer would still be there.
Settings Options
Depending on which theme you have selected, you may see any of the following setting options:
Top Navigation Depth
(Default, Cozy)
Top Navigation Depth allows you the limit the depth of the top navigation menu on the public side of the site. The default setting, 0, does not restrict the number of levels of the top navigation menu. Setting it to one would only show the top-level pages or links of your site.
(Default, Center Row, The Daily, Cozy)
Upload a asset (file) to function as a logo in the header of your site. Allowed file types are: jpg, gif, png, svg, and svgz.
This asset is not associated with any of the items, and will be stored separately; once uploaded to a site you will be able to select it again without re-uploading even if you change themes for a while. Any asset uploaded to one site will be available for all sites on the installation.
To upload a logo, click the Select button. This will open a sidebar where you can either upload a new file from your computer or choose from assets already uploaded to the installation.
Note that the logo completely replaces the header, including the site title, for the site, so you may want to consider an image with text if it is important to you that users see the site title.
To remove a logo, click the clear button in that block (only visible when a logo is active) and save changes.
Footer Content
(all themes)
A text field in which you can enter content to appear in the footer of the site.
By default the message is Powered by Omeka S.
You can add HTML formatting to the text by manually adding the tags.
Color Selection
The theme Cozy includes the option to enter values for colors for the main accent color and navigation background color
The Main Accent color is used for link text and on-hover colors, as in the image below:
The navigation background color sets the color of the navigation sidebar for the theme.
Edit either field by typing a color value into the field. Either a triplet or a six-character hexadecimal code will work. Once you have entered a valid value, the color bar on the left will automatically update to show the color entered, even without saving changes.
The default values are stored in the prompt text for the field. For the Cozy theme, the default values are: main accent color is
087b94 and navigation background color is
Installing themes
In order to appear in the Themes tab for sites, themes must be manually added to the
themes folder of the installation, using an FTP program or an ssh connection.
To add a module to the site using FTP
- Download the zipped module to your computer.
- Open your FTP client, log on to the server that houses the Omeka S install and navigate to the
/themesfolder (this should be located in the main folder of the install).
- Upload the zipped module to the
- Unzip the module
You can also use git to clone a theme directly from the git repository. Do this only if you are comfortable with git.

A lot goes into creating a DPS magazine when you create it with AEM. Out of the box you have everything you need to get up and running, but if you want to push it further there are a few things you'll need to know. This article will cover some more advanced concepts such as AEM content sync and using
HTMLResources, clear up some confusion with terms, and explore what actually happens when Folios and .folios are created with AEM. You'll gain insight into advanced magazine creation that I learned from using AEM to publish the CMO.com app, a digital magazine for marketing professionals.
I'm going to cover a few of the common terms, how they relate to each other, and the high level layout of a magazine issue.
'Folios', which I call 'capital F folios,' can be described as the issue of the magazine. 'Folios' contain one or more 'Articles' and an HTMLResources.zip file. However, in order to have an 'Article' ready to be included in a 'Folio', it needs to be packaged up, which results in a package with a '.folio' extension for that 'Article.' This does not come up often, but you may find yourself occasionally trying to debug 'Articles' and they will have a '.folio' extension after being packaged. This distinction will be handy later on in this article.
The Content Sync Framework is a service in AEM. Media Publisher for AEM provides the Content Sync configurations that are required for packaging your Articles. Out of the box these will work for most cases, and they are responsible for packaging each individual 'Article' into a .folio package, complete with metadata and assets as well as the HTMLResources.zip.
Clientlibs – also known as Client-Side Libraries http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/developing/clientlibs.html – are the JS/CSS libraries that you'll want included in your page. There are some additional properties you'll have to specify if you're using component level Clienlibs (covered in the next section) and in the Content Sync configuration.
HTMLResources is an additional .zip package that gets uploaded and packaged with the 'Folio' that all 'Articles' have access to.
Of the provided Content Sync configurations, there are two that are important for customizing: the .folio packaging configuration and the HTMLResources packaging configuration.
Media Publisher for AEM will use the template specified on the 'dps-Issue', in the sample code this would be '
/apps/aaa/dps-sample/templates/issue' and the property is '
If you look under the
/etc/contentsync/templates/aem-dps-sample/ you'll notice a
dps-HTMLResources node and some child nodes after this with a set of properties. When AEM creates the HTMLResources .zip it looks to this node to get the required files to include. Each sub node under the
dps-HTMLResources node represents a Content Sync configuration, this configuration is passed to a Content Sync framework which executes the appropriate handler based on the 'type' property of that node. The handler then specifies what to add to the
HTMLResources package. There are two main ones that we need to worry about – 'clientlib' and 'copy' (in the next section I'll go over how to create your own).
'copy' is straightforward. You specify the path and optionally the extension, and everything in that path will be copied – with the full path – to HTMLResources.zip. If you specified the path as '
/content/dam/magazinestuff/' then everything under that path would be copied with the destination as '
'clientlib' works a little differently. You specify the clientlib that you want to include and the section (JS or CSS) of that clientlib that you want. For example, if articles in my magazine used the jQuery clientlibs, then I would add in two sub nodes:
This will tell the content sync framework to include the jQeury clientlib in the
HTMLResources package.
Note: I'm fairly certain an enhancement that will let you leave out the extension property for the clientlib type is in the works, but for the meantime you need to specify two clientlib nodes: one for JS, and one for CSS, if you want both to be included.
I like to use component level clientlibs to help keep code organized and keep components contained to aid reuseability. Each component has their own clientlib, usually following the naming convention of
aaa.projectName.components.componentName. If I wanted to use this convention, I would have to add in two content sync configurations for each separate component that I wanted to include in each article. To eliviate this, I add in an additional common category to each of my component clientlibs. For example, I would add the additional category of 'aaa.projectName.mag.components' resulting in '
aaa.projectName.components.componentName,aaa.projectName.mag.components' on each component clientlibs I create.
This allows me to create a global clientlib, which I stick in the design path for organization purposes, and to have that global clientlib, called '
aaa.projectName.mag.components-all' embed the '
aaa.projectName.mag.components' clientlib. This way I just need to maintain one pair of entries in the content sync configuration:
path="/etc/designs/projectName/clientlibs-all "
path="/etc/designs/projectName/clientlibs-all "
This might seem a little confusing, but there is a practical example of this in the sample code. Also, this will combine all your component clientlibs together, so as a best practice you might want to namespace your component styles so they don't accidentally get overwritten.
When these content sync configuration nodes are passed to the content sync framework, it will resolve any additional embed clientlibs that are specified on the '
clientlibs-all'. In this case, the '
clientlibs-all' has the category for '
aaa.projectName.mag.components' specified as an '
embed' property, which results in any clientlibs that have the category of '
aaa.projectName.mag.components' to be resolved and embed in the '
clientlibs-all'. Therefore all of the component clientlibs will be merged together and included in HTMLResources.zip.
Folio configuration
There is also another node on the same level as the
dps-HTMLResources node named '
dps-folio'. This is the node that gets executed whenever a Article is packaged into a .folio. The vast majority of the time you won't have to touch anything in here, and to be honest I am not 100% sure what all of the content sync update handlers do under the covers, but I can describe what I consider to be the important thing to know in this step:
It rewrites the src attributes for
<script> tags and
<img> tags to point to the new destinations. As I touched on earlier, JavaScript and CSS included in the clientlibs get packaged into HTMLResources.zip. The packager rewrites all of the includes in the .html from absolute paths on the server – for example
/etc/content/designs/clientlibs.css – to their new path which would be
../HTMLResources/etc/content/designs/clientlibs.css. Images are included inside the .folio package and rewritten in a similar manner, making them relative to the article rather then to the server. For example an image referencing '
/content/publications/magazine/article1/_jcr_content/article-image.img.png/1391657615025.png' would be rewritten to '
./article1/_jcr_content/article-image.img.png/1391797849453.png'. It then packages the image into the .folio with the same folder structure.
This is an important thing to note if you're creating paths programmatically in JavaScript to load or reference an image. Or if you're referencing images in CSS inside of component clientlibs. I recommend against this: if you're going to reference images inside of CSS, stick the styles/images inside your main 'Design' path.
When we were developing the components for our CMO.com app we considered using the out of the box video component. However, I wanted a video component where I could configure the 'poster image'. In reality this could have been easily done out of the box, but I also was looking for an opportunity to write my own Content Sync Update Handler and it seemed like an easy place to start.
In the sample code, there is a '
CustomAEMDPSSampleContentSyncHandler' Java class that shows how this is done. I grabbed this from one of the 'Geometrixx' example applications and configured a few lines to handle what I wanted it to do. I'll touch on some of the inner workings, what happens, and where this is configured on the content sync template for the sample magazine.
The content sync for mobile documentation covers the general idea of content sync and I'll try to fill in any gaps where it differs specifically for DPS.
Content Sync Handler Type
At the top of the class, you'll see the following:
metatype = true,
factory = "com.day.cq.contentsync.handler.ContentUpdateHandler/aem-dps-sample-video-update-handler",
inherit = true
The important part to note here is the bolded section of '
aem-dps-sample-video-update-handler'. This is the 'type' of content sync handler it is: the value specified in the configuration subnodes are matched against this value and handled appropriately.
In the sample code under
/etc/contentsync/templates/aem-dps-example/dps-folio/.content.xml, the following subnode:
would trigger our custom handler.
Determine package contents
Here is a general sequence of steps for what happens next as it runs through the custom content sync update handler. Since this is an add-on to the out-of-the-box handlers that already take care of most stuff, we really only need to worry if the article has a component of type '
aaa/dps-sample/components/content/video' – which is the
resourceType of the custom video component I made – and then package the content in from there. You'll notice this is specified in a static variable at the top of the class. There are other important properties as also defined here, namely '
posterSource', which is the property that the 'poster image' is referencing. These variables are basically the setup for what to package and when to package it.
The '
updateCacheEntry' method is the entry point into the handler and there are a few DPS helper methods in here to determine if the path being passed in from the '
configEntry' is the overall
DPSFolio object or if it's a
DPSArticle; in our case, its going to be a
DPSArticle. From there it will look at the components included on the page and compare the
resourceTypes of the components to what we specified in our static variable at the top. If it finds a match, it downloads the source asset (the movie in this case) then it moves to the '
addToExportCache' function which resolves the original rendition (for the movie) and copies it with the full path to the current cache of assets waiting to be packaged (as identified by the '
configCacheRoot' property that got passed in back in the beginning.
Finally, if the '
posterSource' path is not blank, it passes it on to the inherited function '
renderResource' – I don't know exactly what happens here, but I expect it renders the resource and copies it into the asset cache as well – since that is what ends up in the cache.
This just scratches the surface of what you can do using AEM to publish to DPS. There are a lot of moving pieces when you package a magazine. For the most part, this article is meant to give you a peek under the covers and to give you an understanding of why things may not be working as you might expect in your implementation.

There aren't too many games that are only available on a particular console anymore – so many publishers want to expand their audience to as many as possible. Sucker Punch and Sony, however, have kept one of their major PS3-only titles going with a new sequel as InFamous 2 hits the ground running with Cole MacGrath returning in Empire City's huge open world environment to take on The Beast.
Following on from the end of the original InFamous game, Cole prepares to face the huge form of The Beast who has come to destroy the world. As predicted by a chap called Kessler, The Beast will take all of Cole's full power to defeat and thats where InFamous 2 kicks off. Thrown straight into a game against a huge end-of-game boss isn't usually how its done in video games but as Cole is already brimming with super powers from the end of InFamous, The Beast isn't too difficult to fight but eventually over whelms Cole who is left sapped of energy and needing to increase his powers further in readiness for his next encounter with said Beastie.
So its back to the now-familiar Empire City and where InFamous 2 gets going. As you play the main game you will be given various chance encounters which will sway your standing with the public one of two ways. Help the innocent from the rampaging armies and no-gooders and you will become a hero. If you prefer the shoot-first approach then maybe being a bad guy is the way forward for you, giving you the opportunity to blow up villages where hostiles and hostages are in one fell swoop but making you hated by the masses.
We decided that after being evil in InFamous 1, we would be a goodie two shoes for InFamous 2. Its not as much fun to be able to just waltz into a scenario with lightening bolts blazing everywhere but it is rewarding when you've just saved a small group of innocents who give you a ton of xp.
The xp you earn from your exploits around the game allow you to improve your powers and abilities – usual suspects apply with increases to the power of certain attacks, variation of power ups and health boosts. Collecting the Ray Shards that are dotted around the maps are crucial to your overall success as the more you collect, the more power you can hold to dish out on the enemies so become a bit like the Orbs from Crackdown in terms of how addictive they are to collect.
The improvements made to InFamous 2 over its predecessor are few and far between. Graphically, its improved – as you might expect – and some of the weapons and combat is ever so slightly different – for the better. But beyond that its still an open world game where you can choose to be good or bad or somewhere in the middle where you fight the same sort of enemy in the same environment.
One gripe we have while reviewing InFamous 2 was the poor controls for combat and scaling walls. So many times we found ourselves jumping at an angle when climbing a building or the camera spinning not spinning around when we were under fire from the bad guys. Fair enough that this might happen a few times – but it was happening far too frequently and only added to the frustration of a game that was beginning to bore us already.
InFamous 2 is not a poor game by any measure. It has a decent comic-book story, humour and action. The inclusion of user-generated levels that can be played on-the-fly is a great idea and adds to the longevity of the game. But we just couldn't get into it. After the first few spells of playing InFamous 2, we had no urge nor desire to switch it back on and be faced with what we felt was a pretty dated game that was sprinkled with nice touches.

Among the 14 vying for the '18 leadoff spot: 52-homer/114 RBI rookie Aaron Judge (New York Yankees), 59-homer star Giancarlo Stanton (Miami Marlins) and Boston Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale (17-8, 2.90 ERA, 308 Ks).
Trout and Bryant also are on the list. (See full list below.)
To enhance the voting process, Topps is offering prizes, randomly choosing entries from those who voted. Winners will then be selected randomly and contacted via e-mail.
Among the prizes: 2017 Topps Triple Threads Baseball hobby box, 2017 Bowman Chrome hobby box, 2017 Topps Allen & Ginter hobby box, 2017 Topps Clearly Authentic hobby box and 2017 Topps Tribute David Ortiz relic /199). (Details and full list of prizes here.)
People can vote at the Topps Web site.
They are also being asked to promote the contest on social media using the hashtag #ToppsCardNo1.
Voting will take place now through Friday, Oct. 6 (4 PM ET).
The winner will be unveiled "a couple of weeks" before the release of 2018 Topps Baseball Series 1, which is scheduled for Jan. 31, 2018.

Please share a little bit about who you are and what you do in your regular life?
I am the co-founder of thebahamasweeky.com (EFWA media partner) and I currently work in corporate communications with the City of Coquitlam in British Columbia, Canada. I am Canadian and I lived in The Bahamas for 13 years. I love the contrast and beauty of both locations. Living abroad, and returning home makes you appreciate your homeland all the more. I love Canada for its wild, raw, natural beauty, and the Pacific Ocean coastal province of British Columbia is a jewel unto its own. It's dubbed 'Supernatural BC' because of its epic natural beauty.
At what point did you begin to learn about the issue of sustainability in every area of daily life?
We used to live on the ocean in North Vancouver, and a waterfall fell down the mountains right behind our house. Although we had road access, my children went to school by water-taxi. My daughter would find natural clay in the earth and eagles, seals and Canada geese would be in our yard throughout the seasons. It enhanced my awareness of how precious our environment is.
Moving to The Bahamas brought me even closer to the ocean; and with crystal clear waters and pristine beaches, garbage sticks out like a sore thumb. The oceans need our protection. I do my best to broaden that awareness to readers of The Bahamas Weekly, and support initiatives that keep our coastlines clean. In Canada, I work with the Rivershed Society of B.C. and the Hoy-Scott Watershed Society.
I joined a dragon boat team a few years ago and we train along Burrard Inlet which is ocean fed, and presently a controversial area where oil tankers frequent and plans are in the works to increase the tankers by 700%. I'm very concerned about oil spills. This is the traditional lands of the Coast Salish People. Paddling in these waters we see seals, clams, salmon, jelly fish, and bird-life, all dependent on the water for their food source. I am very aware of the water and how it sustains life.
Have you embraced any changes that help you personally leave a smaller ecological footprint?
When I lived in Grand Bahama Island, it made me more thrifty with my wardrobe. There are no big malls, or many fashion choices. I began to use what I had in my closet more and adapt pieces. Then, after going through a divorce and hard times, and later returning to my homeland I spent even less on clothing - shopping for clothes became a long lost habit. Dressing for work or outings in Canada is very different than The Bahamas, weather aside. I began frequenting the local thrift shops. I love finding a designer outfit, near new, and for one-tenth of the price. I'm lucky to have options like this in Canada. Reusing has become my new fashion flare. We need to do more of it as a society, especially with fashion being one of the major polluters on the planet.
When I discovered the local salmon fish hatchery in the woods near my home, I quickly became involved. Knowing that full grown salmon return each fall in a shallow stream just a block from my house, and miles inland from the ocean, made me want to get involved. For the past five years I've been working hands-on to help enhance the salmon population and protect our watershed, and I've been at the computer promoting the work we do (and why) through our website, newsletter and social channels, now wearing the hat of president and public relations for the Hoy-Scott Watershed Society. I also work with the Rivershed Society of B.C. which aims to protect one of the greatest salmon rivers in the world — the Fraser River.
How did you meet Zuhal and what led you to become involved with EFWA 2017?
I met Zuhal while covering Vancouver Fashion Week for The Bahamas Weekly on her first visit to Canada. I was able to get to know her more on each of her return visits. My daughters both walked in her last show, Empty Oceans. I've enjoyed watching the evolution of Green Embassy, and the launch and progression of Eco Fashion Week Australia. I am excited to be a part of a necessary fashion movement highlighting sustainability.
As a part of the EFWA 2017 team, what role or roles will you be filling?
I was honoured to be a part of the EFWA team in 2017 as their media liaison. Being a writer, I also help with press releases and social media. I was a speaker at last year's Disposable Planet seminar of Curtain University, sharing how I became involved in salmon enhancement. I'm looking forward to like-minds coming together again to collaborate and share ideas on sustainability in two Australian states in 2018, and will do whatever I can to assist.
What was it about EFWA's mission that drew you to offer your talents in support of this international event?
I believe in Zuhal's vision to have a legion of people all working toward a more sustainable fashion ethos. I'm excited to return to Australia. I first visited in the 80s and country's beaches were most memorable and pristine. We live globally, but we are all connected by our water.
Any last words or a favourite quote on sustainability?
I believe in a better world. It's never too late to make change.

Over the years, the French Open has developed long lasting relationships with sponsors such as BNP Paribas, Lacoste, and watch company Longines. All three French firms have been committed to the tournament for years. Of the three, BNP Paribas has established the most successful and long-standing partnership. BNP Paribas Spokeswoman Michele Sicard explains that tennis fits the company's mission, because both tennis and the bank are "international and abide by principles of fair play."
BNP Paribas describes their corporate values as "responsiveness, creativity, commitment, and ambition." The bank's logo is described as "four stars taking flight . . . a symbol of dynamism and progress." Both the bank and the French Open have parallel traits and characteristics, making the two a tailor-made partnership, exemplified by their longstanding relationship.
The partnership began in 1973 when the French Tennis Federation (FTF) asked BNP Paribas to finance the construction of the private box seats in the center court of the Roland-Garros. Since then, the bank has been committed to being the official partner of the French Open. As of last year, they have had a 40-year relationship, exemplifying a true partnership. Both have benefited from the success of the prestigious two-week tournament in Paris.
BNP Paribas has been part of the French Open as well as some of the other professional tournaments, including the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, amateur, wheelchair tennis and tennis-related community events. They are the world's No. 1 sponsor of tennis, sponsoring ATP, WTA, and ITF tournaments all around the world, establishing a presence in every part of the world. To celebrate their passion for tennis, BNP Paribas has created a unique digital experience on their new web site, portraying 40 years with the grand slam. It is an online experience that shows the spirit of the one-of-the-kind relationship. The site is also dedicated to up-to-date tennis news. With a large Twitter and Facebook fan base, as well as a YouTube channel, the site has proven successful in sharing its passion for tennis.
With a commitment to the French Open, BNP Paribas continues to establish a worldwide presence while maintaining its passion for tennis.

zopA new Lumia generation is coming this autumn and the specifications of some devices were already leaked rich in detail. But the names of the new phones aren't clear at the moment. I want to use this possibility to tell you in this article why I think it would be better to rename Microsoft's phone brand.
From the past to the present
The first Lumia smartphone was presented by Nokia in 2011. Since then Nokia made a big device family including phones, phablets and also one tablet. Each device was different regarding size, price and specifications. Reportedly, Microsoft however will not make so many devices in the near future. Likely, there will be six phones: two low-end devices, two business devices and two high-end devices. Each second phone will be a XL-Version. So with only 3 phone forms, the current scheme of numbers behind Lumia (540,640…1520) doesn't make sense anymore. There would be the name Lumia 550 (XL) or Lumia 650 (XL) for the low-end for example. Lumia 750 (XL) or Lumia 850 (XL) would refer to the same business device. As a buyer or user, I would wonder where the other numbers are.
Furthermore I think that Microsoft/Nokia has destroyed the reputation of the Lumia brand with the cheap phones like the Lumia 530. Lumia phones were known for their good cameras and with devices like the Lumia 1020 they were able to differentiate from other phone manufacturers. Now competition has caught up or in some areas even overtaken. So in my opinion one of the main points for differentiation between a Lumia and another phone isn't there anymore.
How should the phones be named?
I hope that the new high-end phones will come with the Surface brand. Microsoft has established reputation with the Surface brand. People connect Surface with high-end devices and good hardware. Surface has not a bad reputation differently from Lumia though both are running Windows. Furthermore, Surface is also connected with business, an area Microsoft should concentrate on. In my point of view Microsoft has the best possibilities to gain market share in the business area because Windows is still the OS which is used for working in most companies. I think Windows Phones are the best devices for cooperating with Windows. Windows Phone fulfils high security standards and works well together with another device running Windows. In addition many companies use Office 365 and OneDrive. In fact these services are available on Android and iOS but on Windows Phone, Microsoft has the possibility to make an even deeper integration of those services. Selling high-end and business phones with the Surface brand can make it more attractive for companies because Surface tablets are already used in companies.
I'm not sure whether it would be good to brand the low-end devices (not clear whether there will be new low-end phones from Microsoft) as well with the Surface brand, because the low-end isn't connected with Surface. I think the Lumia brand should stay for upcoming low-end phones.
My personal opinion
I would be very happy when the new high-end and business phones would come with the Surface brand. The reason is that people connect Surface with these two areas. A Surface Phone would supplement quite nice the Surface line. This idea fits also well to the leaked logo of the new high-end phones (same as on the Surface 3). Moreover, according to WindowsCentral Microsoft will offer a pen (much like the one for Surface devices) for Cityman.
The Surface phones can have all the features Lumia was known for: good cameras, camera button, Glance Screen. The Lumia phones can continue coming in many colours and having a good price-performance ratio.
I would leave the numbers behind Lumia for the low-end phones as it is. However I wouldn't leave the numbers for the Surface phones like they are today with Lumia. My idea is to name the upcoming high-end phones Surface Phone Pro 4 (XL) and the upcoming business phones Surface Phone 4 (XL).

Topics: What's New from the Charities Directorate of CRA, Non-Profits that are not registered charities
The CRA has revised its T4117 Income Tax Guide to the Non-Profit Organization (NPO) Information Return and the T1044 Form - Non-Profit Organization (NPO) Information Return. If an organization is a registered charity under the Income Tax Act they would not have to complete the form.
Non-profits only have to file the NPO information return if they are not registered charities and if
? it received or was entitled to receive taxable dividends, interest, rentals, or royalties totalling more than $10,000 in the fiscal period;
? the total assets of the organization were more than $200,000 at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal period (the amount of the organization's total assets is the book value of these assets calculated using generally accepted accounting principles); or
? it had to file a NPO information return for a previous fiscal period.
For copies of the form see:
