Sergeant Julius Alexis Schou (July 17, 1849 – November 19, 1929) was an American soldier in the U.S. Army who served with the 22nd U.S. Infantry during the Sioux Wars. During the Great Sioux War of 1876, Schou risked his life volunteering to carry dispatches from commanders in the field to Fort Buford. He was eventually recognized for his efforts and received the Medal of Honor on November 19, 1884.
Julius Alexis Schou was born on July 17, 1849, in Copenhagen, Denmark. He later emigrated to the United States and lived in Brooklyn, New York before enlisting in the United States Army in the mid-to late 1870s. Assigned to frontier duty in the Dakota Territory, he saw considerable action with the 22nd U.S. Infantry Regiment during the Sioux Wars. It was during the Great Sioux War of 1876 that the 27-year-old corporal volunteered to deliver dispatches from Brigadier General Elwell Stephen Otis to General William B. Hazen at Fort Buford, a dangerous task which required Schou to ride long distances though wide-open Indian territory, and was cited for distinguished by his superiors. He received an immediate transfer to Troop G of the 4th U.S. Cavalry Regiment and was promoted to the rank of sergeant. He later received the Medal of Honor in recognition of his actions on November 19, 1884;[1][2][3] though he won the award in 1876, his MOH citation was incorrectly dated 1870.[4][5] Prior to his retirement, he served as a recruiting officer in Seattle and, in 1896, was interviewed by The Spokesman-Review.[6] Schou died on November 19, 1929, at the age of 80, and interred at Arlington National Cemetery.[7][8][9]

2013 Good Practice in Assessment award winners
The Assessment Committee and Learning and Teaching Centre have announced the 2013 Good Practice in Assessment award winners. This is the second year that the Good Practice in Assessment prize has been offered and it has attracted a large number of high quality entries. The assessment prize is a valuable vehicle for show-casing the excellent work being done at ACU.
We are really pleased to announce the prize winners from the Faculty of Health Sciences. We congratulate the winners and acknowledge all of those who applied.
• Assessment in the First Year: Dr Leigha Dark
In the recent Good Practice in Assessment Prize, Dr Leigha Dark and Ms Marie Atherton described their implementation of the unit SPHY104 Evidence Based Practice in Speech Pathology. The first year unit assists students to locate, organise, analyse and synthesise information for clinical reasoning and decision-making.
Leigha and Marie applied a developmental approach to the delivery of the unit, gradually grading the complexity of the information introduced and the critical thinking required of the students. They also actively collaborated with the Office of Student Success, Academic Skills Unit, Library and academics external to Speech Pathology in order to offer students in-class opportunities to develop specific knowledge and skills. Assessment tasks were designed to be ecologically valid measures of learning outcomes, whilst at the same time not disadvantaging students by expecting discipline-specific (speech pathology) clinical knowledge at such an early stage of their course.
The resulting unit is one in which collaborative delivery of theoretical knowledge, practical skills and discipline specific clinical content enables students to build an evidence-based foundation to their allied health career. The developmental, scaffolded approach to assessment tasks and an emphasis on clinically relevant behavioural outcomes, offers students an assessment experience that is fair, formative and clinically relevant.
• Assessment in a Capstone project: Dr Jane Butler
In the recent Good Practice in Assessment Prize, the teaching team consisted of Dr Jane Butler NTL/LIC Sydney, Dr Judy Hough LIC Brisbane. and Dr Marcella Danks Brisbane. They described how students evaluated their clinical reasoning skills in the unit PHTY304: Paediatric Physiotherapy Practice.
During the practical class sessions in PHTY304: Paediatric Physiotherapy Practice, students worked in small groups to analyse information presented in three case-based scenarios which represent 'virtual' paediatrics practice.
These practical classes were primarily student-led with support from tutors who were available to facilitate the learning process and translate concepts rather than to 'teach' or serve solely as information-givers. In their groups, students gathered and interpreted information, formed a hypothesis, determined their learning needs (what is understood, what needs to be researched), explored alternatives for diagnosis and intervention and subsequently made choices for action.
Students were encouraged to use prior learning and experience, as well as some preliminary provided resources, to comprehend and analyse the real-life scenarios. They were also required to source, compile, critique and synthesise additional resources in order to address the issues posed by the scenarios. Discussion of the scenarios in small groups not only identified the groups' learning needs, but also enhanced their understanding while promoting exploration and debate of ideas.
As the focus of this unit of study was to enable students to develop their clinical reasoning skills, students were required to evaluate their perceptions of their clinical reasoning ability by completing a self-evaluation questionnaire at the end of each scenario. This questionnaire asked the student to reflect on their level of skill in this ability, and to consider how they felt they were able to meet the steps involved in the clinical reasoning process. They were also asked to reflect on how they feel they could improve their clinical reasoning skills. This self-evaluation did not form part of the summative assessment for this unit. Students received a group mark for their submitted compilation which was returned a week later with feedback. This timely feedback enabled students to reflect on their learning strategies prior to commencing the next scenario.
• Using ePortfolios to assess: Mr Stephen Guinea, Ms Elaine Rutherford and Ms Sharni Lavell
In the recent Good Practice in Assessment Prize, Mr Stephen Guinea, Ms Elaine Rutherford and Ms Sharni Lavell aimed to introduce and engage first year Bachelor of Nursing students in the use of the Mahara ePortfolio whilst making the process relevant for learning in professional practice. Incorporating the ePortfolio into an assessment task appeared to be the most effective way to ensure this engagement. To complete this assessment, students needed to know: how to use the Mahara ePortfolio software; the rationale for a professional portfolio; and the types of evidence considered appropriate.
Throughout the semester, students completed professional practice activities embedded in the NRSG137 curriculum. The outcomes of these (certificates of completion, quiz results, and reflections on journal articles) formed the evidence for the professional portfolio.
Students learned the relevant functions of the ePortfolio through weekly videos demonstrating one function of the Mahara ePortfolio and application in relation to the portfolio evidence collected for that week. Each video was embedded in a LEO Forum which provided an avenue to seek clarification from the lecturer or a fellow student when required.
Finally, the assessment criteria were provided to students in the Unit Outline. The requirements of this assessment task were purposefully kept very simple to encourage buy-in from students relating to the use of the ePortfolio and to accommodate variations in technology proficiency across the student cohort.
The success of this approach was evidenced through positive student feedback and a low number of students who demonstrated significant challenges in completing this assessment.
Mr Steve Guinea was also a receipient of the 2013 Citation for Outstanding Contributions to Student Learning.

USD/CAD: Trading the Bank of Canada Interest Rate Decision
Trading the News: Bank of Canada Interest Rate Decision
Why Is This Event Important:
As market participants expect the Bank of Canada to maintain its wait-and-see approach in January, dovish comments from the central bank could lead the Canadian dollar to retrace the advance carried over from December as interest rate expectations falter. The BoC is likely to maintain a cautious tone for the region as it curbs its outlook for future growth, and the rate decision could spark a sharp reversal in the USD/CAD as the pair carves a near-term-term bottom around 0.9850.
What's Expected:
Time of release:01/18/2011 14:00 GMT, 9:00 EST
Primary Pair Impact :USDCAD
Expected: 1.00%
Previous: 1.00%
DailyFX Forecast:1.00%
Will This Be Market Moving (Scenarios):
A Bloomberg News survey shows all of the 32 economists polled forecast the BoC to hold the benchmark interest rate at 1.00% in January, while investors are pricing a 4% chance for a 25bp rate hike, according to Credit Suisse overnight index swaps. At the same time, the DailyFX team anticipates the central bank to keep borrowing costs on hold this month, but comments following the rate decision is likely to spark increased volatility in the exchange rate as investors weigh the prospects for future policy. We expect the BoC to maintain a dovish outlook for inflation as the ongoing slack within the real economy bears down on price growth, and the central bank may look to revise its economic assessment as the recovery appears to be weaker than initially expected.
The Upside
Household spending in Canada increased for the fifth consecutive month in October, with the labor market adding another 22.0K jobs in December, and the expansion in private sector activity may lead the central bank to hold an improved outlook for the region as it aims to encourage a sustainable recovery. In turn, the BoC may see scope to normalize monetary policy further over the coming months, and the USD/CAD may work its way back towards the 2008 low (0.9709) as interest rate expectations gather pace.
The Downside
However, as the marked appreciation in the exchange rate dampens global trade, with businesses scaling back on spending, the BoC may retain its pledge to carefully consider tightening monetary further as the economic outlook remains clouded with high uncertainty. Accordingly, dovish comments from central bank Governor Mark Carney could spark a sharp reversal in the exchange rate, which should lead the USD/CAD to work its way back towards parity.
How To Trade This Event Risk
Trading the given event risk is certainly not as clear cut as some of our previous trades, but the recent economic developments could encourage the BoC to hold an improved outlook for the region as private sector activity accelerates. Therefore, if the central bank raises its growth forecast and adopts a hawkish outlook for inflation, we will need a red, five-minute candle following the policy statement to establish a sell entry on two-lots of USD/CAD. Once these conditions are met, we will set the initial stop at the nearby swing high or a reasonable distance after taking market volatility into account, and this risk will generate our first target. The second objective will be based on discretion, and we will move the stop on the second lot to cost once the first trade reaches its mark in an effort to protect our profits.
In contrast, the ongoing slack within the real economy paired with the uncertainties clouding the fundamental outlook may lead the BoC to maintain a dovish outlook for future policy, and the central bank may talk down speculation for a rate hike in the first-quarter of 2011 as it aims to balance the risks for the region. As a result, if the BoC maintains a weakened outlook for growth and inflation, we will implement the same strategy for a long dollar-loonie trade as the short position laid out above, just in reverse.
Potential Price Targets For The Rate Decision

Data Released
Pips Change
(1 Hour post event )
Pips Change
(End of Day post event)
Dec 2010
December 2010 Bank of Canada Interest Rate Decision
The Bank of Canada held the benchmark interest rate at 1.00% in December given the significant excess supply within the real economy, and the central bank is likely to retain its wait-and-see approach throughout the first-quarter of 2011 as it aims to balance the risks for the region. The BoC said that economic recovery appears slight weaker than initially expected as the appreciation in the local currency continued to exert a significant drag on foreign demands, and the central bank went onto say that any further reduction in monetary policy stimulus would need to be carefully considered as the fundamental outlook for the world economy remains clouded with uncertainties. As the U.S., Canada's largest trading partner, faces a tepid recovery, the BoC may see scope to retain its current policy over the medium-term, and the central bank may try to curb the rise in the Canadian dollar as it hampers the outlook for future growth.
What To Look For Before The Release
Traders with access to market depth information via the FXCM Active Trader Platform may use it to gauge the potency of the economic data release as well as to shed some light on the market's directional bias. Increasing volume ahead of the announcement will telegraph likely follow-through behind whatever move is to materialize, while an imbalance in available liquidity on the Bid versus the Offer side of the market will tell us the direction major institutions are likely favoring ahead of the announcement:
Bullish Scenario:
If we see substantially deeper available liquidity on the Bid side of the market, this tells us that major price providers in the market are looking to buy the USD against the Canadian Dollar. Considering that close to 60% of all FX market volume is cleared through just six top banks, we see it prudent to be on the same side of the trade as major institutions and will favor a bullish bias on USDCAD ahead of the data release.
Bearish Scenario:
If we see substantially deeper available liquidity on the Offer side of the market, this tells us that major price providers in the market are looking to sell the USD against the Canadian Dollar. Considering that close to 60% of all FX market volume is cleared through just six top banks, we see it prudent to be on the same side of the trade as major institutions and will favor a bearish bias on USDCAD ahead of the data release.

Skyscrapers -Dillon Schneider In the 1930s the Empire State Building was built in just 410 days, 80 years now this speedy record hasn't been broken to this day. "Skyscraper" was originally a nautical term, referring to a small triangular sail on the top of the ship. The Empire State Building in New York was the first building to have over 100 floors and was the tallest building in the world from 1931 until 1972. What about natural disasters? The Great San Francisco Quake and Fire:
Recorded 3,000 deaths
$400M (equivalent to $8B today.)
300 commercial and residential buildings were damaged or leveled completely. What about today's natural disasters? The least expensive natural disaster that destroyed at least 5, 30-story or more buildings was in at a cost of $29B from the Sichuan Quake in China. The most expensive natural disaster that destroyed, 30-story or more buildings was in at a cost of $235B which was the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in 2011 Mass dampeners help support the massive structures that fill our cities today. The Transamerica Pyramid Building in San Francisco is an example of a "outrigger truss mass dampener" The World Trade Center Buildings are perfect examples of "Core Truss Mass Dampeners" Dubai's Burj Khalifa building stands 2,717ft. tall, an engineering marvel
From some slight engineering errors the building now stands 2ft. shorter than the original height just 3 years after being built What about high Winds? How do skyscrapers support all the weight? Engineers cluster together steel columns and beams in the core, along with others on the buildings edge.
Even for extreme Skyscrapers engineers must blend a perfect concrete mixture to ensure that the building will stand the test of time

No matter how simple that piece of may be the piece of code first has to be obtained from the Apache group before a third party author can write code. That ain't exactly my idea of making it easy on third party folks.

Ok, talking about slightly different things here.

Yes, I did look at the diffs, in some detail. It's nothing at all like my two lines (one to get the pid and one to print out a string). It's exactly what it purports to be, a new, OS portable version of mktemp and I still think it's unecessary and is only an issue because the original code mistakenly used mktemp.

The problem is that third party apps now have to include part of the Apache src tree in order to read the scoreboard file. Let's get back to the original problem, httpd_monitor wasn't portable because it assumed a "standard" format for the scoreboard file when in fact it wasn't because it used mktemp and mktemp isn't portable.

DEALTALK-Canada's Telus risks costly snub with Mobilicity bid
(Adds notice of mediation in 7th paragraph)
By Alastair Sharp
TORONTO, April 25 (Reuters) - If Telus Corp hopes to press its advantage in an upcoming auction of wireless airwaves, the Canadian telecom may need to abandon its plan to snatch a floundering rival out of creditor protection and back away from a nasty fight with the government.
Canada's Conservative government has aggressively opposed the carrier's expansion plans, which Ottawa sees as a challenge to its policy of encouraging more competition in an industry dominated for years by Telus and its two main rivals, BCE Inc and Rogers Communications Inc.
In effect, Ottawa has warned the entire industry that it will not tolerate any move that could interfere with its initiative.
The government has already blocked two previous bids by Telus to swallow Mobilicity, a low-cost carrier that owns valuable spectrum assets. The third attempt, a C$350 million ($317 million) bid, was announced late last week by Mobilicity and its court-appointed monitor.
Ottawa is now waving a big stick at Telus, warning of dire consequences if the carrier fails to abandon the pursuit, according to a report in the Globe and Mail newspaper on Friday. If Telus will not stand down, the government threatened to shut it out of an upcoming auction of airwaves, the lifeblood of the wireless industry, by changing the rules of the sale, the paper said, citing unnamed government sources.
Telus declined to comment on the Globe and Mail report.
But the company and the government, along with Mobilicity and its debtholders, will have a chance to hash out their differences next week after the court dealing with the issue ordered mediation, to be overseen by a veteran retired judge. Continued...

Honestly, I would say that I'm a self taught artist.
I received a BFA from the University of Michigan, but did not attend a formal art program. As a classically trained dancer, I attended the University's dance program where I continued my dance training and the study of the very engaging and ephemeral art of choreography.
I continue to teach and choreograph, but have a strong desire to create art that is more permanent and a reflection of what I find beautiful. I'm certain it has something to do with the long line of creative women who came before me. My family lived in New Orleans and was filled with incredibly gifted women who loved to knit, crochet, sew, cook, garden and craft (cocktails) and they loved nothing more than passing their gifts along.
I currently live in Ann Arbor, Michigan with my husband Marc, daughter Olivia and two very hungry cats.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my site.

This has been posted before, but it's definitely worth another look as a reminder!
This is a discussion on Don't forget the bore sighting device! within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; OUCH!...
This has been posted before, but it's definitely worth another look as a reminder!
When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.
Rudyard Kipling
OW! That didn't look pleasant.
At first was amused until I saw the poor guy on the stretcher.
At the risk of sounding stupid, can someone explain what exactly happened?
(Yeah, I know....Da gun blowed up!)
If a cartridge explodes, would'nt the damage be closer up the barrel, closer to the point of firing pin contact?
And what is that gizmo in the last frame?
That's the bore-sighting device, which goes inside the barrel from the muzzle end to align the sights.
If left in the barrel when the gun is fired, it acts as a bore obstruction.
Battle Plan (n) - a list of things that aren't going to happen if you are attacked.
Blame it on Sixto - now that is a viable plan.
Learning to shoot again : Starting Over
Apparently the fellow left the bore sighting device (thats the pinkish object in the last frame!) in the muzzle. It acted as a bore obstruction and the bbl split. Moral: don't leave anything in bbl!!!
FYI: same results'l happen if you fail to seat a ball on the powder charge in a muzzle loading rifle....not always, but enough blow ups are recorded to make me cautious as hell...BO (of all types) is best avoided!
DUH!If left in the barrel when the gun is fired, it acts as a bore obstruction.
Jeez, is that thing put in so tight that it wouldn't just pop out?
And does it use a laser for adjusting?

Daidoji Rekai by aprillee
Artwork Description
Rekai is a young samurai archer; a member of the Crane Clan, whose colors are blue and silver. This artwork was created for the LEGEND OF THE FIVE RINGS collectible card game, published by Alderac Entertainment Group.
You do incredible work... beautifully done! She's got the elegance of the Crane, but that 'do NOT start with me' attitude of the Daidoji. Awesome!
this portrait kind of reminds me of the character chris from the video game suikoden III. it looks fantastic andso does your talent for bringing out such images in acrylics
I've seen this pic somewhere... a long time ago, I was playing Baldur's Gate, and looking for portraits for characters. I know I've seen this on one of the fan sites... I don't know if it was credited or not or even if they had your permission, but I thought I'd mention it... if you look up fansites for "Baldur's Gate" or "Icewind Dale" you might find it... sorry if this is just something you already know. -_-;
It looks awesome, by the way! ^^;
This is one serious SAMURAI BABE,I love the look on her face,you must be very proud of this,did you use a model.
Simply amazing! I remember always being seriously impressed with your work in EQ fanzines, but your paintings are just incredible!
You found the best place to show your great art! I hope you'll upload your all pics:))) Good luck... (your hungarian fan: LL)
Wow! you are one of my favourite of the L5R CCG's,(ESP Crane) Love the way you draw the face. it's great to see you here in Epilogue. (I know I have a long way to go, but I wish to draw for L5R CCG, can you give me some pointers?) +blush+
You really have a handle on acrylics. My hat's off to you.
Again, great textures, the metallic sheen on the armor is superb. She looks beautiful, deadly, and noble all at the same time.
All your work is wonderful- I'll have to check out your site:)

Michigan Primary: What to expect at the polling station
Michigan holds primary elections Tuesday. Apart from general election issues, several key pieces of legislation will appear on the ballot.
A guide to the names and issues on the ballots in Kent County is here.
A handy explainer of the statewide Proposal 1 is here.
A Kent County millage would charge 50 cents per $1,000 of taxable real and personal property to fund services for seniors. This would be in addition to the 33 cents per $1,000 already on the books.
A library millage is for $1.28 for every $1,000 of taxable value to help fund district libraries in the county.
In Algoma Township, 98 cents per $1,000 of taxable value would help fund the area fire department if approved. Solon, Sparta and Tyrone townships have similar initiatives.
About 37 cents for $1,000 of taxable value in Cannon Township would help fund non-motorized trails and recreation areas in the area.
In Wyoming, voters will be asked to vote for a millage expected to raise $2.38 million for police and fire services.
In neighboring Ottawa County, Georgetown Township's government asks permission to borrow up to $19 million to build a new township hall, library, and senior citizen center. The bond money also would go toward improvements to Township parks.

Audio Connectors Information
Image Credit: API Technologies | sfcable.com | Newark/element 14
Audio connectors are used to affix cables to other audio equipment, providing electronic signal transference and grounding protection. Applications for audio connectors can be general purpose, telephone, or microphone. Most audio connectors are for commercial purposes, but some may conform to military specifications.
Types of Audio Connectors
Connectors may be plugs, jacks, or combinations, and may have an integral switch.
Plug type audio connectors are a plug, or male, connector includes pins that can be inserted into a socket.
Jack type audio connectors are a jack, or female, connector consists of sockets that are aligned to mesh with a pin-type connector.
Combination plug and jack connectors are also available.
System Signals
System signals for audio connectors can be mono or stereo.
Mono, or monophonic, describes a system where all the audio signals are mixed together and routed through a single audio channel.
Stereophonic sound systems have two independent audio signal channels.
Important parameters for audio connectors include conductors and maximum diameter or side dimension.
Conductors are the number of conductive elements in a connector that mate with a corresponding element to provide an electrical path.
Maximum outer diameter or maximum side dimension of connector does not include dimension of flanges, if applicable.
Housing materials for audio connectors can be plastic or metal.
Some audio connectors have no housings; they are open frame.
Mounting options include right angle, panel or flange mount, threaded housing, strain relief, DIN mount, PCB mount, and BNC.
Plating Specifications
Contact platings for audio connectors can be nickel, gold, silver, or none.
Plated contacts are used for a more reliable connection, but do not have to be plated.
Terminal Connections
Terminal connections for audio connectors include crimp sleeve and solder cup.
Crimp sleeve terminals have electrical connections made using a wire crimp.
Mechanical compression during the crimping process causes a functional union between the conductor and crimp barrel.
In solder cup terminals the electrical connections are conditionally detachable, and are made by soldering. Connections may be soldered directly, or through use of a solder cup, hollow cylinder, eyelet, or hook.
More information on types of connectors can be found here.
Audio connectors must adhere to standards to ensure proper design and functionality.
BS 7947 - Gives guidance on identification and application of connectors and definitive electrical and mechanical standards, such as IEC 60130 where these exist. To be read in conjunction with BS 6840-11:1994
IEC 61076-3-112 - These connectors are designed based on IEEE standard 1394a-2000 and applicable for high performance serial bus used for consumer audio/video equipment. These connectors consist of fixed and free connectors having four contacts.
MIL - DTL - 55116 - This specification covers waterproof, polarized, five and six contact electrical connectors (plugs and receptacles) for use in audio frequency circuits at 60 volts maximum potential and 0.5 amperes maximum current.

PPI Unveils Audi R8 V10-Based Razor GTR-10 Limited Edition
PPI Automotive has taken the Audi R8 V10 and overhauled it into the limited edition Razor GTR-10. With modifications from bumper to bumper, including performance, suspension and aesthetics, it's a complete package for those that find the standard V10 model too mundane.
Horsepower has increased from 525-hp to 601-hp, plus there's 417 ft-lbs of torque on tap, a slight increase from the factory 391 ft-lbs. Possibly more impressive is that the car sheds over 550 lbs from its body, making the performance increase that much more noticeable. The 0-62 mph time is now a scant 3.2 seconds.
The weight loss is attributed to a ton of carbon fiber components, with all new doors, roof pillars, side skirts and front bumper. Additional cooling comes from modified side skirts, rear fenders and a rear bumper. The last bits of carbon fiber replacement parts include an adjustable rear spoiler and rear diffuser. The engine bay also features a carbon fiber cover while the trunk sports carbon fiber ram-charged air inlets.
Shedding even more pounds are replacement lightweight MAG11 forged aluminum PPI wheels. Up front are a pair of 19×9-inch sized wheels wrapped with 245/35/19 Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires while the rear features 20×12-inch wheels with 325/25/20 matching tires. Flashy orange-metallic brake calipers highlight the brake upgrades.
Suspension modifications lower the vehicle thanks to KW Automotive springs, while a hydraulic lift system has also been installed to raise the front 1.75-inch if needed.
Inside there are even more carbon fiber goodies from e-brake to interior trim while the seats have been reupholstered with Onyx Nubuck leather with colored accents that are customizable. PPI also installs their proprietary steering wheel to the limited edition vehicle.

Ife was the tenth housemate to enter the Big brother 11 house tonight. In her introduction video she said:
"Some people say to em you sound really posh for a black girl! What do they think all black girls talk like?"
"When I was young my mum just gave me to a white family. I'm a singer, a dancer, a performer. I'm not a wannabe. If people annoy me I just cut them off completely so being in the house will, be weird because you can't go anywhere!!
IFE (pronounced Iffy)
Age: 25
From: Milton Keynes
Occupation: Professional Dancer
Professional dancer Ife has had a taste of fame as one of Cheryl Cole's backing dancers and also dreams of singing stardom. A backing vocalist on the The X Factor she is hungry for a career as a singer.
Engaged to her boyfriend of 6 years, Ife lives with her adoptive parents and fiancée. The most significant event of her life has been meeting her real mum and seeing the massive resemblance between them in looks, mannerisms and behaviour. She's not resentful of her biological mum who gave her up for adoption; she just thinks how lucky she was to have been brought up by her parents.
She believes in God and prays every day in her own way and also believes in the power of positive thinking – "you get out of life what you put into it."
Image is important to her – she once stayed indoors for ten days because she couldn't draw her eyebrows on correctly. A self-confessed clean freak , she can't stand things being dirty and is very particularly about how her clothes are folded away.
Ife is a bit of an insomniac and can function normally on a couple of hours sleep. She also sleep talks.

"Mad Men," "Twilight" unite in $412.5 million deal
By Lisa Richwine
Jan 13 - Lions Gate Entertainment Corp said it bought private movie studio Summit Entertainment, producer of the blockbuster "Twilight" vampire series, for $412.5 million in cash and stock.
With the deal, television and movie producer Lions Gate gains the fifth and final "Twilight" movie, set for release in November; a stronger presence in international distribution, and 13,000 older film titles such as Oscar winner for Best Picture "The Hurt Locker" for its film library.
The agreement announced on Friday comes as Lions Gate is preparing for the March release of its first "Hunger Games" movie, part of a triology aimed at the teen audience that made "Twilight" a mega-hit. The first four "Twilight" films have sold nearly $2.5 billion in tickets around the world.
Lions Gate is the studio behind the film "Precious" and the "Saw" horror franchise as well as TV shows "Mad Men," "Nurse Jackie" and "Weeds." The company was engaged in a years-long battle with activist investor Carl Icahn that ended last August when Icahn dropped his battle for control and sold his shares in the studio.
Summit's chief executive, Rob Friedman, and Co-Chairman Patrick Wachsberger re-launched Summit in 2007 as a full-service movie studio, expanding from its roots as a company primarily devoted to the foreign sales of movies.
Both the Lions Gate and Summit labels "are expected to be active in the production and distribution of films," the companies said.
The majority of the purchase price was funded with cash on the balance sheet at Summit, the companies said in a joint statement. But Lions Gate will remain in control of the combined studio with Jon Feltheimer continuing as co-chairman and chief executive officer. Michael Burns will remain vice chairman.
The companies did not say if Summit's Friedman and Wachsberger would stay with the new studio or what their roles would be. In the statement announcing the deal, the pair said the new company's "dramatically enlarged media platform will create tremendous opportunities for all of us within the Summit and Lionsgate families."

Perhaps you say that you don't do well on tests.
However, as a Christ-follower we are always having our faith "tested."
This morning we are going to look at what I believe is the ultimate "faith" test, and ask questions based on Abraham's experience.
Let's make sure we have the history behind this narrative.
Because the world was growing increasingly more wicked, distant, and independent from the God who created them; and because they were distorting the character of God; God raised up a man through whom He would establish a nation who were to be a light to the nations and show forth the true character of God.
Abram was told by God to move to a land that would be given to his offspring and through whom all the nations would be blessed.
As we've seen in the last three weeks, he encountered a famine, figh ...

Roaming draft scrapped after Juncker heard about it
By Eric Maurice
The European Commission on Friday (9 September) withdrew a draft proposal on roaming it presented on Monday because its president Jean-Claude Juncker said it was "not satisfactory enough", when he heard about it afterwards.
"It was a technical proposal that our services drafted. The president feels that this proposal is not satisfactory and that we need to aim higher and come up with something better," commission spokesman Alexander Winterstein told journalists on Friday.

The draft proposal outlined a 90-day period during which calls, text messaging and internet use from one country to the other would be exempt from surcharges, and gave the possibility for operators to introduce surcharges after that period.
The proposal was to implement an agreement from June 2015 between the commission, the European Parliament and member states to phase out roaming charges while maintaining a "fair use safeguard" to prevent abusive uses.
Winterstein explained that the proposal was drafted during the so-called comitology process, which involves experts from member states under the commission's authority.
"When a draft is sent to comitology process, it becomes public so that everyone can have his say," he pointed out, adding that "at that point the president isn't necessarily informed."
'Not a flip-flop'
Because the commission is a political commission, Winterstein explained, Juncker took a "political decision" and asked for improvements when he learned of the draft proposal.
The spokesman did not say why the commission president, or his cabinet, did not know about the draft proposal, even though roaming has been one of the EU's flagship measures to ease the life of EU citizens.
On Tuesday, Winterstein announced in the press room that "the end of the roaming charges was fixed for June 2017. The commission has promised it and now the commission is indeed delivering now."
What happened after, the same spokesman said on Friday, is that Juncker "heard and saw the feedback ... He considered that in view of this feedback, which the commission was actively seeking, this proposal was not adequate."
The proposal was criticised by MEPs who accused the commission of reneging on the promise to phase out roaming.
The centre-left S&D group said the proposal was "complete nonsense".
After Juncker's decision to scrap the draft, the Party of European Socialists posted on Tweeter: "The @EU_Commission drops its proposal to limit #roaming to 90 days. Thank you all for supporting our claim!"
The leader of the centre-right EPP group in the parliament, Manfred Weber, said that he expected the commission to "give a strong signal" that there will be "no more roaming fees from European consumers in 2017."
Winterstein rejected claims that the commission abruptly changed its mind in face of MEPs pressure.
"What you are calling flipflop, I call it 'taking into account feedback that we received'," he told journalists.
He said that roaming charges "are going to disappear on 1 June 2017, period." But he declined to say how the commission will now give satisfaction to its president and to all parties to the 2015 agreement.

In this paper, a mathematical model of the respiratory mechanics is used to reproduce experimental signal waveforms acquired from three newborn lambs. As the main challenge is to determine specific lamb parameters, a sensitivity analysis has been realized to find the most influent parameters, which are identified using an evolutionary algorithm. Results show a close match between experimental and simulated pressure and flow waveforms obtained during spontaneous ventilation and pleural pressure variations acquired during the application of positive pressure, since root mean square errors equal to 0.0119, 0.0052 and 0.0094. The identified parameters were discussed in light of previous knowledge of respiratory mechanics in the newborn.

London, May 18 : The world now has the first official Jewish tartan thanks to a Scottish rabbi.
32-year-old Mendel Jacobs created the design after consulting the Scottish Tartans Authority and religious scholars.
The tartan, he says, is the perfect way to reflect Scotland's Jewish history.
"As the only Scottish-born rabbi living in Scotland, I felt it was important to celebrate the rich tapestry of culture and history we share and it is particularly fitting for Israel's 60th anniversary celebrations," the Daily Record quoted him, as saying.
"The Jewish people have been an integral part of Scottish culture for more than 300 years, with the first Jew recorded in Edinburgh in 1691."
The tartan's colours, weave and number of threads all emphasise the Jewish connection.
"The blue and white represent the colours of the Scottish and Israeli flags, with the central gold line representing the gold from the Biblical Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant and the many ceremonial vessels," he said.
"The silver is from the decorations that adorn the Scroll of Law and the red represents the traditional red Kiddush wine.
"The cloth is also 100 per cent kosher - being a non-wool linen mix."

Two thumbs up!!!!
This is a discussion on Texas Girl on Gun Control within the The Second Amendment & Gun Legislation Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Thought you guys/gals might be interested in this video. You may have seen it, it's been around awhile. Here's a video that I guarantee you ...
Thought you guys/gals might be interested in this video. You may have seen it, it's been around awhile. Here's a video that I guarantee you won't forget anytime soon! She didn't cry, although she came close to losing it, and she gave those politicians a reality check they dearly needed.
Texas girl and State Legislator, Suzanna Gratia-Hupp, had the encroachment on her second amendment rights graphically illustrated to her in real life at the Luby's cafeteria shooting in Killeen, Texas.
The honorable U.S. senator from New York, Chuck Schumer, was getting a little uncomfortable in his chair as she unloaded both barrels on "the committee." The room was absolutely dead quiet throughout her testimony and the gun banners (meaning Senators who want to BAN citizens' ownership of all firearms) were absolutely speechless as this little Texas lady chews them up and spits them out.
At least she knows what the 2nd amendment is really all about, and is certainly not one who suffers fools lightly.
I hope it works, this is the first video I have posted.
Guns Have Only Two Enemies: Rust and Politicians.
I don't think anyone has ever said it better than Suzanna Gratia-Hupp.
She is one strong lady.
Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around laws. Plato
Just want to bump this thread back to the top. I think it is very impressive, she is smart, honest, and clear; and she makes the tired old clichéd remarks normally used to rebuke pro gun speakers sound stupid before they can be uttered.
I've seen this video before but it was just as effective the second time around. Sadly, it probably fell on deaf ears. The politicians in the room would most likely have been flanked by their armed body guards and would have cared less how many of them were killed by an insane gunman. There is nothing more dangerous than a liberal with an agenda.
Beware the scorned woman! I ate at that restaurant when I was in Killen, now (or when I was there) a Chinese restaurant. I didn't realize it was the same place until later.
Retired USAF E-8. Curmudgeon at large.
Lighten up and enjoy life because:
Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep. It starts when you're always afraid... Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth
[Before Oct. 16, 1991, the Central Texas town of Killeen was perhaps best known for its proximity to the Army base at Fort Hood, and Luby's was known only regionally as a popular cafeteria chain that served a wide variety of inexpensive dishes. But on that day, both came to be linked to what was then the worst mass murder in U.S. history. At 12:45 p.m., 35-year-old George Hennard of nearby Belton drove his pickup truck through a window at the Killeen Luby's and killed 24 people.]
If gun control saves just one life, it's worth it. Of course, here IT COST 24 LIVES. But who's counting, right?
"The flock sleep peaceably in their pasture at night because Sheepdogs stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
I saw that video a long time ago and I have seen it many times since then. She sends a very good message...
She was an incredibly brave woman to tell it exactly like it is, without trying to sugarcoat anything. She absolutely nailed it at the very end.
Awesome video and awesome testimony to the 2A.
"Don't hit a man if you can possibly avoid it; but if you do hit him, put him to sleep." - Theodore Roosevelt
