About Okcir's Director: Mohammad H. (Behrooz) Tamdgidi, Ph.D.

"… Be a good craftsman: Avoid any rigid set of procedures. Above all, seek to develop and to use the sociological imagination. Avoid the fetishism of method and technique. Urge the rehabilitation of the unpretentious intellectual craftsman, and try to become such a craftsman yourself. Let every man be his own methodologist; let every man be his own theorist; let theory and method again become part of the practice of a craft. Stand for the primacy of the individual scholar; stand opposed to the ascendancy of research teams of technicians. Be one mind that is on its own confronting the problems of man and society. …"
"… Realize that your aim is a fully comparative understanding of the social structures that have appeared and that do now exist in world history. Realize that to carry it out you must avoid the arbitrary specialization of prevailing academic departments. Specialize your work variously, according to topic, and above all according to significant problem. In formulating and in trying to solve these problems, do not hesitate, indeed seek, continually and imaginatively, to draw upon the perspectives and materials, the ideas and methods, of any and all sensible studies of man and society. They are your studies; they are part of what you are a part of; do not let them be taken from you by those who would close them off by weird jargon and pretensions of expertise."
—C. Wright Mills, The Sociological Imagination, 1959
Mohammad H. (a.k.a. 'Behrooz') Tamdgidi (pronounced "tamjidi"; Persian: «محمد حسين تمجيدى، «بهروز ), is an Iranian-American sociologist, specializing in the sociology of self-knowledge, human architecture, and utopystics—three overlapping theoretical, methodological and applied fields of inquiry he initiated in his doctoral studies in 2002 and has since pursued.
Tamdgidi's research, teaching, and publishing practices have been framed by an interest in understanding how personal self-knowledges of multiple selves and singular world-historical social structures constitute one another. This line of inquiry has itself been a result of his long-standing interest in understanding the underlying causes of failure of the world's utopian, mystical, and scientific traditions in bringing about a just global society.
Tamdgidi is the founding editor of Human Architecture: Journal of the Sociology of Self-Knowledge (ISSN: 1540-5699, 2002–), a publication of OKCIR: the Omar Khayyam Center for Integrative Research in Utopia, Mysticism, and Science (Utopystics) which has served since 2002 to frame his independent research, pedagogical, and publishing initiatives.
Tamdgidi holds a Ph.D. and M.A. in Sociology in conjunction with a graduate certificate in Middle Eastern studies from Binghamton University (SUNY). He received his B.A. in Architecture from U.C. Berkeley, following enrollment as an undergraduate student of Civil Engineering at the University of Tehran. He served as a lecturer in sociology at Binghamton University (1987-2001), as a full-time sociology faculty at SUNY-Oneonta (2001-3) and as a tenured associate professor of sociology teaching social theory at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) Boston (2003-2013). In Dec. 2013 he retired early from his tenured position at UMass Boston in order to devote full-time to his independent scholarship through the conduit of his research center, OKCIR.
Besides editing about 27 journal issues (as of 2013) of Human Architecture, and publications in other scholarly journals and edited books, Tamdgidi has previously authored Gurdjieff and Hypnosis: A Hermeneutic Study (Palgrave/Macmillan 2009/12) and Advancing Utopistics: The Three Component Parts and Errors of Marxism (Paradigm Publishers 2007/09). A forthcoming book will bring together important new work plus revisions of previously published material, constituting, along with the earlier two books noted above, a trilogy on utopystics whose components significantly revise and advance the findings of Tamdgidi's doctoral thesis entitled, "Mysticism and Utopia: Toward the Sociology of Self-Knowledge and Human Architecture (A Study in Marx, Gurdjieff and Mannheim)" (SUNY-Binghamton, NY, 2002).
Tamdgidi's current research is also focused on a hermeneutic sociological study of Omar Khayyam's attributed rubaiyat in the context of his works, life, and time as a whole. His continuing interest in Khayyam, which has also framed the inspirational structure of his research center and its activities as a motif, arises from Tamdgidi's view that Khayyam's life and works present a unique and fruitful path toward transcending the limits of the world-historically constituted alienations of utopian, mystical, and scientific traditions from one another. Khayyam's stature, eloquence, intellectual autonomy and global recognition as a self-reflective, world-historical public intellectual lend his voice as a creative pathway toward appreciative understanding of the contributions of philosophy, religion and science while transcending them as one-sided ideologies that have hitherto served, in their fragmentation, diverse modes of political, cultural, and economic imperiality in world-history.
An important applied dimension of Tamdgidi's initiatives in advancing the sociology of self-knowledge, human architecture, and utopystics has been his efforts in building alternative research center, scholarly publishing, and related professional structures. OKCIR and the Okcir Press are alternative endeavors in the applied sociology of publishing, creatively seeking new vistas for fostering autonomous, self-reliant, open-ended, and liberatory scholarly and publication practices. In Tamdgidi's view, such alternative dissemination practices are indispensable prerequisites for transforming the prevailing academic structures in favor of pluriversal praxes more conducive to overcoming the mutually alienating structures of utopian, mystical, and scientific traditions.

TOWSON, MD. - The Goucher College Men's Basketball team (2-5) fell at home tonight to Eastern University(2-2). The Eagles held the lead for 37 minutes over the Gophers. Eastern University shot 46% from the field, while Goucher shot only 27% the field. The Eagles captured the lead with 14:17 to go in the first half and held it for the remainder of the game. Goucher was never able to recover from a 31 to 18 half-time deficit.
Senior Chris Outing (New Windsor, NY) led Gophers with 12 points and 12 rebounds. Fellow Senior Jesse Mondry (Medford, OR) also contributed 16 points and 7 rebounds.
The Eagles were led by Austin James (17 points) and Shaquan Turk (16 points).
How It Happened:
· Eastern out shot Goucher from the field 46% to 27%.
· The Eagles made 12 three point shots and the Gophers made 5.
· Eastern outscored Goucher 31 to 18 in the first half.
Coach's Thoughts:
· "Eastern is a very good half court defensive team and I thought they made us play fast on offense, which led to us taking poor and rushed shots. In addition they responded very well on offense by knocking down open three point shots."
· "I thought we played better in the second half than in the first half, but we never settled into our style of basketball."
Next Up:
The Gophers return to action on Wednesday, November 30 as they travel to Division I Towson University. The Gophers will tip-off against the Tigers at 7:00 pm.

It's been even quieter than usual here on Chic n' Geek…and just from me, in general. Once you get in that blog rut, it's almost easier to just let it ride and have it serve as the natural sunset to the phase of your life documented on the blog, or that part of your identity. The concept of which is why I'm back here, writing, I guess–because I figured what better place to live your empty nesting existential crisis out loud than on your pretty much defunct blog?
So I recently became an empty nester, something about which I haven't been able to write or really even talk because it's still too weird/new/sad. And what better way to ease into one major life transition than to just up and quit your job too? Because who needs stability? Or money to pay two college tuitions?
So, yeah, that's what I've been doing. Weirdly, it took me a month after dropping my son, my youngest, off at college, to stop and wonder "hm, I wonder if empty nest depression is a thing?" Apparently it is…well, sort of. Apparently it is "not a clinical diagnosis"…so, in other words, you just get over it. Kind of like you're supposed to just get over postpartum depression, I guess…although that is, if not, apparently, its own clinical diagnosis, but is a recognized actual thing. I will say that this empty nest whatever it is isn't as bad as postpartum depression was for me…but that's just me. All I know is that it's hit me like a much tinier, lighter pile of bricks than actual depression, leaving me more stunned than sad, but feeling some kind of feels that are new and weird and stultifying.
Anyway, I won't bore/scare you with more right now, but I figure the way through this is probably through writing, so why not write here in case it helps someone else out there who's white-knuckling her way through this empty nest thing. Here are apparently the best eight empty nest essays, which I'm off to read and ponder.

Network Appliance has moved to bolster its backup and recovery systems by acquiring Alacritus for $11 million in cash.
Alacritus makes Securitus, a virtual tape library (VTL) system that lets disks emulate tape by creating separate virtual tape libraries for each host while sharing the same physical tape library. This allows users to share a tape library among incompatible backup applications.
VTL technology can provide faster backup and recovery for large systems without disrupting existing tape processes, said Enterprise Strategy Group senior analyst Pete Gerr.
The Pleasanton, Calif., start-up's product portfolio will complement NetApp's NearStore line of disk-based back up systems, said Amit Pandey, vice president and general manager of the NetApp NearStore unit.
"Customers see disk as good because it is easier to access and more reliable than tape, but they don't what to buy new software," Pandey said in an interview. "They'd like to think their tape has gotten better. Think of VTL as a plug-and-play approach."
Backup and recovery software is one of the hottest technologies on the market as corporations seek to safeguard crucial data. Some of this data is required to be saved by government regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA and SEC 17a-4.
Alacritus' products compete with EMC's Clariion disk library, as well as solutions from several smaller players, including Sepaton, Maxxan Systems, FalconStor and NearTek.
Pandey said NetApp looked at roughly half a dozen VTL makers before settling on Alacritus. It chose the company in part because it had already agreed to bundle Alacritus VTL with NearStore to back up data on NetApp, Windows and Unix systems. Pandey would not specify the other targets.
ESG's Gerr said the deal makes sense for NetApp, which has found success selling the value of serial ATA-based nearline storage. But implementing a SATA disk array as a backup target often requires users to reconfigure their backup software to backup to disk volumes instead of tape volumes.
"While Alacritus hasn't established itself as a VTL leader in the US market, it has done well in other geographies, specifically Asia-Pacific, and I think this gives NetApp another easy-to-sell option for its NearStore solution that makes the system inherently more valuable," Gerr said.
While Alacritus' Securitus systems will immediately boost NearStore, Pandey said NetApp is especially excited about Alacritus' Chronospan. Still in development, this software provides continuous data protection (CDP), an emerging technology that recovers a data set of any description from any point in time.
CDP helps enterprises do a full restore to the last transaction before a disruption occurred; a single file recovery to a previous version; or even roll back to a point before a virus attacked or failure occurred.
The acquisition is expected to close by the end of the fourth fiscal quarter of 2005, when the majority of Alacritus' 20 employees will join NetApp. The deal comes a day after IBM agreed to resell NetApp's entire product line.

Cubemap minimum resolution
From Valve Developer Community
If the game crashes when you try to run
buildcubemaps, this probably means your game resolution is set too low. Before you try to build cubemaps you must ensure your game width and height are over 512 pixels. This means that the minimal standard resolution to build cubemaps is 800x600.
Note:The video resolution can be set under Options > Video in the game engine.

Reports are emerging that Facebook is looking into buying up Microsoft's Atlas Solutions, the ad-serve firm that came with its acquisition of aQuantive in 2007. Although neither the software giant nor the social media behemoth would confirm or deny the news, the idea, says Business Insider, could give Mark Zuckerberg's firm the wherewithal to start making some serious money from the firm he started as a Harvard undergraduate.
If true, the deal will confirm two truisms: that, with useful data on its billion users, Facebook will finally have the advertising firepower to outgun Google, which is the current king of online ad revenue; and poor old Microsoft, which is floundering in the wake of tech's Big Four. The Redmond firm paid $6 billion for aQuantive six years ago–$6 billion it has already written off–and the last offer for Atlas Solutions came in at around the $30 million mark. Kara Swisher on AllThingsD reports that the final deal could include some sort of agreement between the two firms

To reach it you have to climb the "Lardarina," a long stair (33 flights with 377 steps), which leads from the train station to the top of the village.
More linked to the territory than to the sea, Corniglia has an agricultural tradition and an urban typology similar to the one of rural hinterland villages, with lower houses, just recently raised.
The village grew up along Via Fieschi, with houses facing the street on one side and looking at the sea on the other. On a cliff overlooking the sea there are still the ruins of a fortress dating back to 1556.
The most important monument in the village is St. Peter church, Gothic-Genoese style, built around 1350 on the ruins of a previous building. Its front, enhanced with a marble rose, is enriched with many decorations, including a bas-relief representing a deer, the symbol of the village. Interesting are also the Oratorio dei Disciplinati, dating back to the eighteenth century, which offers a breathtaking view of the sea, and the wide Taragio, the small main square of Corniglia, the real heart of the village.

It's that time of year again that we start thinking toward the fall and school for the kiddos. It seems that there are more options and more issues than ever weighing on us as parents as we strive to find that which is best for our kids and for our families. If you have been considering homeschooling as an option for your children or if you have newly taken the plunge into this alternative but rapidly growing way of doing school and life then you are more than welcome to attend one of the upcoming FREE "Newby Workshops" in Barrie or Bradford. These are interactive "Q&A" style workshops in small groups.
Workshops are offered by veteran homeschoolers Henry and Corrinna Kiezebrink and Cori Dean:
- on Tuesday, July 31st near Barrie by Henry and Corrinna
- on Thursday August 9th in Bradford by Cori
- and on Tuesday, August 21st in Bradford by Cori.
All workshops are free, are approximately 2 hours in length, and will begin promptly at 7:30pm with an on-time draw. Please feel free to come after 7pm to grab a drink and snack and to visit informally if you wish. At the Bradford workshops you will be welcome to peruse Maple Tree Publications' home-based homeschool resource store.
Feel free to forward this invitation to friends, family, neighbours, or other groups in the area who might be interested in learning more about homeshooling and RSVP as soon as possible as space is limited to 15 people per workshop. Both Mom and Dad (and Grandma and Grandpa or other adult supports) are welcome to attend though we respectfully ask that only parents and nursing babes attend as a full house and a late evening often make it hard for little ones to allow the adults the opportunity to get the most out of the workshop.
RSVP to Henry at email@example.com or 705-737-3135 for the Barrie workshop or to Cori at email@example.com or 905-778-9412 for the Bradford workshops.
Some topics we will cover:
Yikes! Can I do this!?!
Where can I go for support?
What are the legal implications?
Do I have to contact my local school board?
What about curriculum?
What is a "normal" homeschooling day like?
What about high school and beyond?
What about socialization!?!
Please come with questions!
And expect some yummy handouts too!
Henry and Corrinna Kiezebrink bring to these workshops nearly years of homeschooling experience while our little one room schoolhouse was established only 15 years ago. While we aren't experts, we do have a few years under our belts and have all participated in home education leadership on the local and national level for many years. We hope to share the real deal on homeschooling, the good, the bad, and the ugly. We are obviously a bit biased towards homeschooling but will gladly share the truth about the pros and cons of adopting this crazy lifestyle. Looking forward to meeting many of you in at these events.

25% Tax Relief For UK Games Developers
Today is Britain's perhaps most thrilling day of the year. It's the day that the Chancellor of the Exchequer gives his Autumn Statement, the annual not-quite-the-budget about which everyone has been on tenterhooks for weeks. Will he make being unemployed entirely illegal? Will he announce that all benefits claimants must be his butler for one day of the year? Will he demand that the disabled must either stop complaining or move to Russia? Probably, I don't know – I was playing Far Cry 3 over lunchtime. But one thing he has announced is a 25% tax relief for UK games developers.
As the UK games industry's representative body TIGA rather excitedly declare (they've been campaigning for this for years), this is a simple, single 25% level of tax relief, which they say should be "simple to administer and economically impactful." This doesn't only affect games development, but also animation and "high end television production". And it will apparently also include matching funding for training and developing in the creative industries. It's almost as if the government's finally noticed that making money from making games is in their interests. Especially if it's by British companies who aren't ferreting all their profits through the Cayman Islands.
The official wording from today's budget reads:
Corporation tax reliefs for the creative sector – The Government announced at Budget 2012 that, following consultation on design, it would introduce corporation tax reliefs for the video games, animation and high-end television industries from April 2013, subject to state aids approval. Under these reliefs, qualifying companies will be able to choose between an additional deduction at a rate of 100 per cent of enhanceable expenditure or a payable tax credit at a rate of 25 per cent of qualifying losses surrendered.
TIGA's enthusiastic CEO, Dr Richard Wilson, said that these tax breaks will "contribute to a rebalancing of the UK economy away from an over-reliance on public sector employment and financial services towards highly skilled, export focused industries." However, he also warns that while this news is good, it still falls short of the 37.5% offered in Quebec, which is of course why so many publishers have their studios in Canada these days.
In other news, I have no idea what tax relief is, beyond the feeling of finally not wanting to be sick when I've sorted the annual mess out.

Beginner Riding Lessons: 20 Minute One-to-One Lunge Lesson
Adults €35, Children €25
Highly recommended for beginners or for those returning to the sport after a long break.
The 20 minute one-to-one session is very intense. The instructor controls the pace and rhythm of the horse's motion.
The rider can concentrate on his/ her balance and body awareness. Working on the lunge is very beneficial for establishing a balanced seat, body alignment and effective communication with the horse.
The lunge session is an ideal setting for learning to do rising trot and it is a great confidence booster for children and adults alike.

Man. Today.
Today was a bad day that involved bad news that led to more bad news that led to me hyperventilating into the phone asking me husband to talk me down from a panic attack.
Today had the potential to break me.
But it didn't.
Because today I took all of the fear, frustration, negativity and used it as fuel to do something I've not yet been able to do.
Run 3.11 miles.
I ran 5k.
When I was 237 pounds I couldn't walk for 5 minutes on the treadmill. Everything hurt. I couldn't breathe. I felt so pathetic. I would cry, right there on the treadmill. Tears of frustration, of shame, of anger. I'd leave the gym feeling like a failure. I wanted to give up many times.
I've kept with it, even though the weight loss results have been painfully slow. I've kept going because with each workout, I felt a little stronger. With each new milestone, I felt more confident. I felt more energetic. I felt more… capable.
Of anything and everything.
I want to say this to anyone reading who is where I was a year ago.
You are capable. Capable of running. Capable of losing the weight. Capable of pushing your body to do amazing things.
I know from experience that when you're overweight, people love to tell you how "you're doing it wrong." And most times, they are demeaning in their tone and cruel with their words.
I know what it feels like to be severely overweight. I understand how hard it is to get up and move. I understand why you want to give up. But please, don't give up on yourself.
Start small. Start slow. Five minutes on the treadmill. And if you can go another five, then do it. Don't beat yourself up for not doing more than you think you should be doing. Do what you can, but push yourself a little bit more each time. When you think you want to quit, push yourself for 15 more seconds.
When you've done what you can do, be proud of yourself for doing it. Don't worry about what you *should* have or *could* have done. Revel in what you did. And promise yourself to do it again tomorrow.
One year ago, I would have never believed that I could run 3.1 miles. Hell, I wouldn't have believed that I could run.
I can and I did.
And it feels better than I ever imagined.
And By "Today" I mean "Yesterday."
Man. Today.

Andreas Gursky (German photographer)
Andreas Gursky (1955 -) is a notable German photographer and visual artist.
Life and career
Gursky was born in Leipzig in 1955, and attended the German State Art Academy during the early 1980s where he began to develop his photographic style.
His images feature large structural spaces, shot from distance and usually from high above, and often feature large crowds of figures (such as traders on a stock market floor or attendees at a rave). Many of these photographs display a dispassionate distancing from their subjects, whilst at the same time capturing a wealth of small details.
Gursky's photographs are traditionally blown up into large prints, often measuring over 10ft in length, and have been described by critic Calvin Tomkins as having "the majestic aura of nineteenth-century landscape paintings, without losing any of their meticulously detailed immediacy as photographs".
Some of Gursky's most celebrated photographs include:

Chris Brown has broken his silence about the moment he was reportedly shot at his pre-VMA party.
Shocking video footage shows terrified party-goers cowering on the floor after shots rang out.
Speaking on Twitter today, the singer said: "It is disappointing that we as a society cannot have fun or enjoy ourselves without any altercations sometimes. Miss me with the b******t."
Revellers were told to "get down" after the singer was reportedly targeted in the shooting and three people were injured and taken to the city's Cedars Sinai hospital - one remains in a critical condition.
The video is captioned: "Just experienced a shooting in #1Oak #LA Suge Knights was shot and this is #ChrisBrown going nuts afterward. Notice the bouncer screaming to get down."
According to TMZ, model Tyson Beckford, who was at the bash with celebrity pals, heard four shots ring out in the club before police rushed to the scene and the nightspot was evacuated.
Chris, 25, was uninjured, but music producer Suge Knight, who founded Death Row Records, was taken to hospital after walking out of the club and being spotted by officers.
Katie Clendon, who is believed to have been at the party, posted a message on her Twitter account claiming she thought the gunmen were aiming at Chris when they fired the shots.
She wrote: "Literally can't believe what I just witnessed. Someone tried to fire shots at Chris Brown at 1oak. Speechless."
Katie added: 'Prayers to all those harmed by this. Honestly still in disbelief this happened.'"
The star posted a number of photographs on Instagram throughout the night but has made no mention of the incident on social media.
See our gallery of guests who were at the party before the shots were fired, including Justin Bieber, The Game and singer Pia Mia.
Mirror Celeb has contacted a representative for Chris Brown.

WINNER: Euan's Guide Accessible Fringe Award 2015
5-stars "Sweet and funny moments abound in Jack Thorne's script. They are beautifully fielded by Genevieve Barr (Alice) and Arthur Hughes (Phil) who present every stage of the couple's relationship with warmth and disarming candour." The Observer
5-stars "This is the type of frank, shocking theatre that will follow you home; sitting on your shoulder and in the back of your mind for days." Frowning
5-stars "Beautifully acted, stunningly designed and a show that really makes you think." UK Theatre Web
4-stars "What makes this such an exciting, inspiring piece, however – aside from Thorne's crackling words, fired back and forth between the characters as though they're thinking in unison – is just how much it isn't about disability…It's nothing less than love, death and the troubled permanence of a deeply-bonded relationship." The Scotsman
4-stars "Startlingly good…unflinching but generous. Grisly but lovely." The Times
4-stars "Forceful, thrilling, stunning…consistently sensitive and thoughtful performances." The Daily Telegraph
4-stars "Jack Thorne's multi-layered two-hander for Graeae – about a couple grieving for their stillborn child – has no happy ever after, but is rewarding to watch…Amit Sharma's spot-on production." The Guardian
4-stars "What the piece achieves is an unflinching frankness on the subject of intimacy…Amit Sharma's tenderly directed production." Sunday Times
4-stars "One of the most talked about plays at the fringe…the writing is visceral and precise." Financial Times
4-stars "It's the writing that hits you squarely in the gut – it has a real sense of precision and meter, the tone sometimes funny, sometimes filthy, sometimes hopeful, sometimes utterly devastating…Amit Sharma's production is not always an easy watch, it's often upsetting and wrenching, but it's funny too and done with sensitivity and intelligence." The Stage
4-stars "Genuinely moving and presents a good showcase for two talented actors under the direction of Amit Sharma." British Theatre Guide
4-stars "Jack Thorne's heartbreaking new play…[Genevieve] Barr and [Arthur] Hughes play it beautifully."
Time Out
4-stars "Funny, poignant, arresting…a complex emotional watch…heart-warming and heart-wrenching."
4-stars "A bold statement of both the quality of the company's [Graeae's] work and their emphasis on ensuring that it's accessible to as wide an audience as possible." Broadway Baby
4-stars "Foremost a touching and believable love story…with strong performances from [Genevieve] Barr and [Arthur] Hughes, this redemptive, moving story is brought to life." The List
4-stars "Excellent, sensitive performances in a "stunning" new play." The Week
4-stars "Genevieve Barr and Arthur Hughes wring every last gasp of emotion from Thorne's script in Amit Sharma's beautifully unsentimental production. Just as Alice and Phil's relationship seems to have fallen apart beyond repair, something is salvaged in this unflinchingly honest look at everyday tragedies and the healing that's required beyond them." The Herald
4-stars "A deeply affecting production…a profoundly moving play." Three Weeks
Highly Recommended Show "A strong production which isn't always easy to watch but it is more than worthwhile. It is a highly recommended addition to your Edinburgh Fringe experience." Fringe Review
"I spent four days at the Edinburgh Festival seeing mainly the big guns from the official festival, but the show that stood out for me was Graeae's The Solid Life of Sugar Water…great script, acting and directing…I urge you to catch it." Richard Wilson, Graeae Patron
"It's no surprise to me that the press have gone crazy for Graeae's new production, Jack Thorne's 'The Solid Life of Sugar Water. I saw it just before Edinburgh and knew that this incredible, intense, brilliant production would show how assured writing, directing and acting can combine to make an onslaught of drama that holds people enthralled, and utterly wrapped up in the dramas unfolding in the lives of the characters." Mat Fraser, Graeae Patron

Raymond Neufeld
Lieu de naissance : Borden, Saskatchewan, Canada
Date de naissance : 10 décembre 1941
Lieu de décès : Dawson, Territoires du Yukon, Canada
Date de décès : 10 mai 2015
Raymond (Ray) Cameron Neufeld passed away in Dawson Creek, British Columbia, on May 10, 2015, after a lengthy illness. Ray was born in Borden, Saskatchewan, on December 10, 1941, the second son to his parents; Jake and Lydia Neufeld.
Ray was always a jokester, loved his family, and had many friends.
He enjoyed camping and fishing with his children. Most weekends you would find us heading out to our secret fishing hole. We always had friends or relatives join us. One weekend, a bear came up the bank of the river. The bear went over to a couple of tents beside us and enjoyed the potato salad out of the back of their pickup. Of course Ray was pounding two pots, trying to scare the bear off. The pots never recovered. The bear ran down the riverbank and Ray jumped out of the camper, in his underwear, to gather rocks. When the bear returned, Ray threw rocks at it, one hitting the bear in the middle of the head. The bear shook his head and decided to leave. The funny part is the people in the tents never heard a thing!
Ray attended school in Onoway, Alberta, and was a trucker at heart. In 1970, he met the love of his life, Patricia, in Edmonton, Alberta. On August 14, 1971, they were united in marriage and from this union came four beautiful children; Cory, Rana, Terri, and Lonni. Ray being a trucker, was in Bakersfield, California, when Cory was born.
Leaving trucking for a few years, Ray and Pat took over the Turbo Station in Winterburn, Alberta, and ran it until 1977 when they moved to Valleyview, Alberta, to run the Turbo there. Ray definitely had the gift to gab and always made time to b.s., but working 7 days a week left no time for family, so they relocated to
Dawson Creek, British Columbia, and (except for a couple of years) remained in
Dawson Creek, developing many close friendships over the years.
Ray was predeceased by his parents, Jake and Lydia, his older brother Eugene, and his younger brother Gerry.
Ray is survived by and will be sadly missed by his wife of 43 years, Pat, his children Cory, Rana (Terrence) Schreiber, Terri Pickett, and Lonni (Shane Lovell) Neufeld, his six grandchildren whom he loved dearly and lit up his life, Olivia and Easton Schreiber, Breanna and Kaden Pickett, Brennan and Hailey Marion, his sister-in-law Joan,
brothers-in-law Garry (Jean) Outhwaite, Perry Outhwaite, and his sister-in-law
Marilyn McMillian, and numerous nieces and nephews.
At Ray's request there will be no funeral service. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the South Peace Hospice/Palliative Care Society.
Arrangements were entrusted to Bergeron Funeral Services & Crematorium Ltd.

Armed only with the 47th overall pick in the second round of Thursday night's NBA Draft, the Jazz hope to beat the odds and find a productive player who can impact the franchise.
They've done it before.
Since moving to Utah from New Orleans before the 1979-80 season, the Jazz have bagged trophies like Mark Eaton, Bobby Hansen, Bryon Russell, Shandon Anderson, Mo Williams and Paul Millsap in the hit-and-miss wilderness beyond the draft's first round.
Eaton helped stabilize a floundering franchise, and Russell started on two teams that reached the Finals.
More recently, Williams and Millsap developed into borderline All-Stars who, in 15 combined seasons, have earned nearly $74 million.
Oddly, the Jazz got Williams and Millsap with the 47th pick of their drafts the same one they own this year.
What's been Utah's secret?
"The things we look for in a second-round pick are basically the same ones we look for in a first-round pick," said vice president of player personnel Walt Perrin.
"How hard do they play? How hard are they willing to work to improve? How smart of a player are they? Is their jump shot broken and will he work to fix it? Will he fight defensively?"
General manager Kevin O'Connor has been in Utah since 1999 and was in charge of the drafts that netted Williams and Millsap.
"You have to ask yourself, 'What NBA skill does a guy have?' " O'Connor said. "Maybe he doesn't have all of them, but what NBA skill does he have? That's what you try to evaluate."
Millsap was a three-time rebounding champion at Louisiana Tech. When O'Connor scouted him during a game against Boise State, he grabbed an eye-opening 28 rebounds.
"We knew he had one skill," O'Connor said. "We knew he could go get the ball off the backboard."
Of all the improbable stories involving the productive players the Jazz drafted beyond the first round, Eaton's is the most improbable.
Before becoming an All-Star, one of the most prolific shot-blockers in NBA history and someone whose jersey now hangs from the rafters at EnergySolutions Arena, Eaton was a seldom-used center at UCLA.
He played so little in college that pro personnel-types struggled to find film to study, even if they were intrigued by his incredible size.
As a result, Eaton decided to be proactive.
Along with a former college coach, he got on the telephone before the 1982 draft and started calling NBA teams.
Former Jazz coach and general manager Frank Layden, whose team had won 24, 28 and 25 games in its first three seasons in Utah, was one of his first contacts.
"The reason we called the Jazz," Eaton recalled, "is because they were last in about every statistical category. We thought they might be desperate enough to give me a chance."
The Jazz were interested.
They sent a scout to watch Eaton during a summer league before Layden met him face-to-face.
"I looked at the size of him and said, 'Wow, this guy is put together,' " Layden recalled. "I just thought we had to take a chance on the guy. We didn't have anything to lose."
Eaton knew of Utah's interest in him, but when the Jazz used two third-round picks on Louisville's Jerry Eaves and BYU's Steve Trumbo, he was "pretty disappointed."
Because teams in Israel and Monte Carlo had also contacted him, Eaton suddenly wondered if basketball would take him overseas.
He got his answer about an hour later, however, when the Jazz drafted him in the fourth round.
"Frank sent me a telegram," Eaton said. "I still have it hanging on my wall."
The NBA did not have a rookie salary scale in place at the time, so Utah's next order of business was signing Eaton.
A deal was struck poolside at the Marriott Hotel near Los Angeles International Airport.
Utah offered a five-year contract, with the first season's salary of $45,000 guaranteed. The next two years were partially guaranteed. The contract was also loaded with production-based incentives.
"They knew it would take a little work to get me up to speed," Eaton said. "But they were willing to guarantee the first year, which meant I wouldn't be looking for a job in December."
Said Layden: "I told Mark, 'We'll guarantee you some money if you come in, work hard and do what we ask.' ... I liked him as a person, and I liked the fact he was hungry."
For the next decade, Eaton anchored the Jazz defense. He played in the 1989 All-Star Game with teammates John Stockton and Karl Malone and was the first player Utah picked beyond the first round to thrive in the NBA.
"I wasn't looking to be a trend-setter," Eaton said. "I was just looking for a job."
Said assistant coach Scott Layden: "Our greatest success here when our franchise began to get real credibility was when Mark Eaton came on the scene.
"Everybody thinks of the Malone and Stockton years, but Mark Eaton made this a legitimate, respected franchise because of his defensive presence."
A year later, the Jazz struck again.
While watching tape of Purdue's Joe Barry Carroll, who eventually became the No. 1 pick in 1983, Layden noticed Iowa shooting guard Bobby Hansen.
"He was supposed to have a bad foot; he was supposed to be this and that," Frank Layden said. "But I said, 'Gee, this kid plays hard. He hustles. If he is still there in the later rounds, let's take him.' "
The Jazz took Hansen in the third round. He spent seven years in Utah, started 297 games and, after being traded, eventually won a championship with Chicago in 1992.
"You can always say we were lucky with those guys, and that's partly true," Frank Layden said. "But it's not all luck. It's hard work and preparation, too."
Late-round stars
The best players who were drafted beyond the first round by the Utah Jazz. Note: The draft went from 10 rounds to seven in 1985, from seven rounds to three in 1988 and from three rounds to two in 1989:

2003 • Mo Williams, second round (No. 47)
2005 • C.J. Miles, second round (No. 34)

February 24, 2012 - The World Bank issued an SOS Friday on the state of the world's oceans and announced the formation of a powerful coalition to confront the ocean's growing number of overexploited fisheries, more than 400 "dead zones" where most marine life cannot survive, and the loss of important ecosystems to coastal development.
In a speech – "A New S-O-S: Save Our Seas"-- at the World Oceans Summit in Singapore, World Bank President Robert Zoellick said the new Global Partnership for Oceans would tap the experience and knowledge of multiple organizations, and leverage financing, projects, and programs in developing countries to better manage the ocean and its resources.
"The world's oceans are in danger, and the enormity of the challenge is bigger than one country or organization," said Robert Zoellick, president of the World Bank Group, one of the new coalition's partners.
"We need coordinated global action to restore our oceans to health. Together we'll build on the excellent work already being done to address the threats to oceans, identify workable solutions, and scale them up."
Zoellick said the partnership's goals would likely include: rebuilding at least half of the world's threatened fish stocks, more than doubling marine protected areas from 2% of the ocean's surface to at least 5%, increasing sustainable aquaculture to provide two-thirds of the world's fish (aquaculture today provides about 50% of seafood consumed by humans), and properly valuing ocean and coastal resources to enable better decision-making.
The Oceans Partnership--– an alliance of governments, international organizations, civil society groups and private interests--is forming ahead of Rio+20 (June 20-22), a high-level meeting that will mark the 20th anniversary of the first United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) (the Rio Earth Summit). Many small island developing states have called for Rio+20 to support sustainable ocean development, and protection of marine resources and oceans is expected to figure prominently at the conference, according to the UNCSD Secretariat. The Global Partnership for Oceans will assist with opening new dialogue on the issue and supporting countries' efforts to meet commitments for improved ocean management.
Despite several international agreements, such as the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, the world has not been able to reverse the loss of fish stocks and marine biodiversity in the last 20 years. An estimated $50 billion a year in potential returns is lost because of poor management of the oceans, according to Sunken Billions, a report by the World Bank and the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization.
At the same time, oceans are essential for providing food, jobs, livelihoods, and protection for hundreds of millions of people around the world. Fish is developing countries' single most traded food product, with the trade valued at $25 billion a year, and for many Pacific Island countries, fish make up 80 percent of total exports.
"The oceans are hugely important to tackling poverty, ensuring food security, and protecting biodiversity," said Juergen Voegele, director of the World Bank's Agriculture and Rural Development department.
"Globally, fish provides more than 3 billion people with 15 percent of the protein they eat, and some 240 million jobs are supported by marine fisheries. A partnership like this is imperative for managing such a complex – and truly global - public good."
All the organizations, countries and agencies supporting the Partnership, including the World Bank, are already involved in activities to protect the world's oceans, such as improved governance systems around fishing, creating marine protected areas, efforts to attack the sources of ocean pollution and degradation, and aiding the development of sustainable aquaculture to boost food security.
"Almost all the challenges facing ocean sustainability stem from governance and market failures," said Andrew Hudson, Head, UNDP Water & Ocean Governance Programme, one of the international agencies supporting the new Partnership.
"Our experience has been that supporting ocean governance reform at all levels creates an enabling environment that can in turn catalyze sizeable quantities of public and private sector finance to sustain ocean ecosystem services. The Global Partnership for Oceans provides a key means of implementation to scale up proven approaches."
Adds Brett Jenks, president and CEO of Rare Conservation, another supporter of the Partnership: "There are many viable solutions to much of what plagues the world's oceans. The World Bank's leadership of this new, global partnership creates a new opportunity to catalogue what's working and promote customized replication all over the world."
Current support for the Global Partnership for Oceans includes a number of developed and developing countries as well as country groupings – including island nations; non-government organizations and advocacy bodies like Conservation International, Environmental Defense Fund, the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation (ISSF), the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), National Geographic Society, The Nature Conservancy, Oceana, Rare and World Wildlife Fund (WWF); industry groups like National Fisheries Institute, and the World Ocean Council whose members rely on sustainable seafood supplies or are dependent on ocean resources; international organizations including The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), The Global Environment Facility, Global Ocean Forum, GRID Arendal (Norway), the United Nations Development Programme, United Nations Environment and the World Bank Group.

Musical siblings Benjy Myaz, Joan Myers mourn mother's death
Veteran reggae crooner Benjy Myaz, his sister, gospel singer Joan Myers, and their seven siblings are today mourning the death of their mother, Resa Myers, who passed away on Sunday, September 8, at the Cornwall Regional Hospital in St James.
'Sister Resa', as she was fondly called, was the founder of the Haddington Basic School in Hanover, which first opened its doors on September 3, 1962, less than a month after Jamaica gained independence from Britain. Under Sister Myers' leadership, the school began with 12 students on the verandah of the Haddington Holiness Christian Church, where she and her husband, the late Rev E.E. Myers, JP, lived with their young family. With the continued growth of the school's population, it relocated a few times, eventually finding a home at the recently completed church sanctuary. Sister Resa retired in 1988.
Prior to her death, residents of Haddington petitioned the Minister of Education to rename the school the Resa Myers Basic School to honour and celebrate the work and contribution to nation building of this iconic educator.
Joan Myers, a former lead singer of the Grace Thrillers, recorded two albums with the group and shared stage with Shirley Caesar, The Talleys, Rev F.C. Barnes, Andraé Crouch, Jessie Dixon and Monty Alexander. Most recently, she performed alongside Smokey Robinson at the 86th birthday celebration of Ambassador Andrew Young in Washington, DC. Her brother, Benjy Myaz, has carved out his own niche in music, touring the world as a bass player, supporting acts like Jimmy Cliff, Culture, Toots and The Maytals, Shinehead, and J.C. Lodge.
His solo career exploded in the early '90s with a remake of Brooke Benton's classic, So Many Ways. His lovers rock single, Love You Higher, was a No. 1 song on several charts.
Funeral arrangements for Sister Resa are currently under way. She would have celebrated her 94th birthday on September 12.

From the editor Lewis Page:
"Here on the pages of the Reg the word 'boffin' is a title of honour accorded only to researchers we respect - generally from the proper sciences and able to do hard sums. Lesser practitioners (for instance business-studies or psychology professors purveying dubious surveys and statistical analyses) are generally known as 'eggheads' or 'trick-cyclists', for instance.
We get a fair bit of positive mail from people we have dubbed boffins, so we're fairly sure most of them know this, but it never hurts to be sure."

How to measure your body?
Perfect - fitting clothing starts with perfect measurements. Here, we'll show you which measurements are needed and how to correctly take them.
Measure directly on your body. Measure your chest over the fullest part of your bust while wearing a bra that fits well. Your seat measure should be measured around the fullest part of your hips. Inside leg length is measured from the crotch to the floor. Do not measure over other clothing.
a) Bust
*This is not your bra size!
*Wear an unpadded bra (your dress will have a built-in bra)
*Relax arms at sides
*Pull tape across the fullest part of the bust
b) Waist
*Find the natural waist
*This is the smallest part of the waist
*Usually about 1 in. above belly button
*Keep tape slightly loose to allow for breathing room
c) Hip
*Find the widest part of the hips
*Usually about 7 in. below natural waist
*Tape should brush across both hipbones
d) Inside leg length

The iPhone 5 Gets Unboxed
The iPhone 5 is finally here! What's the first thing any tech fan does with their new toy — a classic unboxing video of course!
Although the iPhone 5 photographs beautifully, it's impossible to capture some of the most stunning aspects of the device — namely its featherweight feel and its slim profile. It feels good in the hand.
As for the box, it's the typical Apple box. The box contains the new Lightning USB connector, the power plug, and Apple's new EarPods. The box also contains a small manual and two Apple stickers.
One item we couldn't find in our box? The pin that can be used to open up the SIM tray. Users will just need to use a paper clip (unless we just missed it).
We'll have more hands-on stories with the new iPhone 5 throughout the day, including photo comparisons, video tests, speed tests and more.
What do you think of the iPhone 5 ? Worth waiting in line for six hours? Let us know in the comments.

Considered one of the most beautiful botanic gardens in the world, Kirstenbosch National Botanic Garden is no slouch in the location stakes. The stunning 36-hectare gardens are set against the eastern slope of Cape Town's Table Mountain and overlook the city with views to the Hottentots Hollands Mountains in the distance.
Established in 1913, Kirstenbosch was the first botanic garden in the world to devote its grounds solely to indigenous flora. The gardens are also part of a 528-hectare natural reserve of protected mountainside and forest to support a range of flora and fauna, which borders the Table Mountain National Park. Within the gardens, you'll find over 7,000 species of plant including an extensive range of the unique plant life of the Cape Flora, called fynbos – a hardy thin-leaved plant, as well as flora from the various regional areas of South Africa. Rare and threatened species are among the botanical examples on display with delicate indoor plants within the Botanical Society Conservatory.
The pleasant layout and scenery of Kirstenbosch attracts not only tourists but Cape Town locals who come to enjoy the natural surrounds, art exhibitions and musical concerts during summer. The gardens contain meandering and looping pathways with designated sections to explore including a rockery, ponds, a Fragrance Garden, Braille Trail and Protea Garden. Highlights include the Bird Bath – a stone pool surrounding a spring, a large Cycad Garden and ever-changing African stone sculptures. To visit Kirstenbosch when the largest number of plants are blooming and when the fynbos is at its best, spring and early summer is most optimum time to go, although the gardens are beautiful during all seasons of the year.
Entry to Kirstenbosch National Botanic Garden is Rs42 for adults, Rs10 for children aged six to 17 and free for kids under six years. To visit, Kirstenbosch is 13km and a 24-minute drive from downtown Cape Town. From the city, take the M3, turn right at Rhodes Drive and follow the signs to the gardens.
