Movie Review //
Bram Stoker's Shadowbuilder (Special Edition)
https://mvdshop.com/products/bram-stokers-shadowbuilder-special-edition-blu-ray //
For a movie that is from 1998 this has a lot of feels of the late 1980's/early 1990's to it yet it also somehow seems too advanced for those times. Perhaps one of the most interesting and thought-provoking horror films of all time, "Shadowbuilder" is a movie unlike any other both in its plot, cast, delivery and villains. What starts with a Satanic cult using elements of a young boy's dead mother to bring creatures out from the underworld turns into a race between the forces of good and evil to stop the entire world from going to Hell-- literally.
See, this story follows a young boy who is destined to die a saint. But since these evil spirits know that, they're trying to kill him first because if they do it will open a portal which will unleash all of the demons in Hell onto Earth. I'm surprised I haven't seen this plot done more often, but I think that's one of the reasons why I really enjoy "Shadowbuilder". It's not the type of movie that has ten or twenty other similar horror movies to go along with it-- it just sort of stands in a class on its own.
Michael Rooker is a priest trying to prevent all of this while Tony Todd is seemingly the only sane one throughout it all as well. See, these demons look like shadows (hence the title, sort of) and so what happens is they can take over a human body or just somehow influence people as well. The one weakness they have though is light-- if light hits them they turn to dust. But yet, they have this power where they kind of turn all of the townspeople mad while the good guys are trying to save the boy and so it becomes chaos and basically everyone stays in the dark when it all could be so easily prevented by just lighting up the town.
Have you heard of "Shadowbuilder" before? I feel like for the casual movie-watcher this is a forgotten film but it really is great to see released on Blu-Ray because it will hopefully help it to gain some more recognition as it is also my favorite Bram Stoker... well.., anything. You owe it to yourself to see this movie at least once but I'm warning you that when you do, you will likely be buying this Blu-Ray and watching "Shadowbuilder" over and over, picking out the little pieces you may have missed the first time and just finally giving it some much deserved recognition.

West Ham ease to third win in a row with victory over Norwich City
PUBLISHED: 17:13 31 August 2019 | UPDATED: 17:13 31 August 2019
PA Wire/PA Images
The Hammers struck through Haller and Yarmolenko to collect the points
West Ham United 2 Norwich City 0
The Canaries wings were well and truly clipped by the Hammers, who extended their unbeaten league run to three matches with this comfortable win at the London Stadium.
Sebastién Haller's first-half goal set Manuel Pellegrini's men on their way against the Premier League new boys, before Andriy Yarmolenko confirmed all three points after the break.
Both teams had enjoyed differing Carabao Cup fortunes against League Two sides on Tuesday evening and, while West Ham safely negotiated a tricky trip to Newport County, the Canaries had fallen off their perches with a shock defeat at Crawley Town.
Following his team's 2-0 victory at Rodney Parade, Pellegrini made ten changes as he returned to league business and that meant only Issa Diop retained his jersey following that midweek trip to Wales.
And while all eyes were on Teemu Pukki, who had netted five times during Norwich's opening three Premier League matches, it was Haller, who had scored twice for West Ham at Watford last weekend, who showed the flying Finn the way to goal.
Despite both teams already seeing a total of 25 goals hit the back of the net during their first three games in which they had featured, it soon became clear that this would be no East End scoring-fest as both 'keepers were redundant by-standers during an uneventful opening to this contest.
But Haller finally broke the deadlock on 24 minutes, when Felipe Anderson played in the overlapping Arthur Masuaku, who sent a low left-wing cross to the edge of the six-yard box, where the stretching Frenchman got in front of Ben Godfrey to slide West Ham ahead in clinical style.
Daniel Farke had also made ten changes from the side that had crashed at Crawley with only Christoph Zimmermann retaining his place and the Canaries captain had featured at both ends in the opening exchanges, firstly nodding Emiliano Buendìa's inswinging free-kick into the clutches of Łukasz Fabiański and then brilliantly foiling the escaping Anderson as he shaped to shoot.
With the new boys now trailing to Haller's opener, Todd Cantwell somehow headed over the top from under the Hammers crossbar and then Marco Stiepermann sent a 25-yarder scorching into the West Ham 'keeper's gloves.
Ten minutes before the break, Zimmermann was forced to retire having come off second best in a couple of quick-fire block tackles and that saw Ibrahim Amadou step from the bench but the Norwich substitute was largely untroubled in the run-up to the interval.
Yarmolenko had endured a frustrating opening 45 minutes, having seen a couple of hopeful penalty shouts fall on the deaf ears of referee Paul Tierney but his fortunes changed in the second half.
Seconds after rocking the left-hand post with a thunderous volley, the Ukrainian then doubled the Hammers lead on 56 minutes, when he popped up on the right-hand side of the area, where he sent an angled 12-yarder across the face of Krul and into the far corner, after his initial shot had cannoned back off Buendìa.
That second West Ham goal opened up the contest, with Norwich simply now having to flood forward in their quest to belatedly get back into the game and after Ryan Fredericks was booked for checking Jamal Lewis, Max Aarons also saw yellow for chopping Anderson.
Midway through the half, Pukki finally let fly with his first shot of the afternoon but Fabiański comfortably gathered and, in reply, Diop saw Buendìa block his goalbound header on the line, before Yarmolenko retired to a standing ovation as Robert Snodgrass was brought on to face his former club.
Having just been recalled into the Scotland squad, the Hammers substitute was soon cautioned for tugging Lewis and, shortly afterwards, Snodgrass - like the rest of the 59,950 in attendance - could only look on in wonder as Krul brilliantly parried Manuel Lanzini's powerful header over the crossbar.
The Canaries keeper then pulled off another sensational double-stop to deny Anderson and Haller in quick succession, before Snodgrass was also denied by Krul's shins after the outstanding Anderson had unselfishly played him in but, by now, West Ham's work was done.
HAMMERS: Fabiański, Fredericks, Masuaku, Diop, Ogbonna, Rice, Noble (Sànchez 84), Yarmolenko (Snodgrass 71), Anderson (Fornals 88), Lanzini, Haller. Unused subs: Roberto, Balbuena, Zabalata, Ajeti.
CANARIES: Krul, Aarons, Lewis, Godfrey, Zimmermann (Amadou 36), Leitner, Trybull, Buendìa, Stiepermann (Drmić 77), Cantwell (McLean 77), Pukki. Unused subs: Fährmann, Byram, Vrančić, Tettey.

Had been great to have besides Face ID.
Had been great to have besides Face ID.
In the current generation of iPhone and iPad Pro models, Touch ID is no longer offered as a biometric authentication - this has been replaced for the Face ID, a transition very many out there are happy with. Nevertheless, one cannot deny how practical and well-functioning the Touch ID was, and a recent Apple-registered patent suggests that this technology can make the comeback even better.
The entire screen can take your fingerprint
The patent is called "Acoustic pulse coding for imaging of input devices" and indicates that sound is applied to the surface to detect if something comes into contact with the screen. In this way, fingerprint reading becomes relevant throughout the screen, rather than a small area that limits the phone by being at the expense of a smaller screen.
From the illustration below it is stated that the fingerprint is read in what one places a finger on the screen.
Acoustic transducers are used which transmit encoded pulse signals as soon as it detects touch, which then generates an image of the data. In the process, sound pulses emit reflections that can be interpreted as fingerprints and analyzed.
Advantages to download
According to Apple Insider, this method will provide benefits over current Touch ID technology. You will find that the components take up less space and that the fingerprint, in theory, can be read anywhere on the screen. The fact that there are no electrodes in place also makes the authentication faster, as the patent indicates that the new method uses less processing power.
Having said that, it cannot be ruled out that this patent will never result in any firmness, it would only have been one in the number of many. What is still interesting and makes this particularly relevant is that Apple has for a long time tampered with this new way of performing biometric authentication.

Centre of Jaina Studies Newsletter: SOAS - University of London
The international workshop The Constitution of a Literary Legacy and the Tradition of Patronage in Jainism, organized by Christine Chojnacki and Basile Leclère, and hosted by Jean Moulin (Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3, Institute of Philosophical Research), was held on 14-17 September 2016.
The first day of the workshop was opened by H. Nagarajaiah (Bangalore University), who spoke on the patronage of a cultural legacy in Karnataka, dealing with the extensive literature on Kannaḍa language from the 7th to the 13th centuries. He drew attention to the poets Ravikīrti, Śrīvijaya, Pampa, Ponna and Ranna, who made a great impact on Kannaḍa poetry and whose patrons were kings of different dynasties in Karnataka. H. Nagarajaiah emphasized the role of royal patronage during the Cāḷukya and Rāṣṭrakūṭa Dynasties in supporting the Jain community, which helped the Jainas to preserve their palm-leaf manuscripts in libraries (śrutabhaṇḍāra) and to build many temples (basadi). Peter Flügel (SOAS) in Information on Patronage of Jaina Literature in Manuscript Catalogues explored some of the earliest meta-data on patron-client relationships in standard manuscript catalogues, focussing on the indices of Albrecht Weber's (1886, 1888, 1891) Verzeichniss der Sanskṛit- und Prâkṛit-Handschriften der Königlichen Bibliothek zu Berlin, Zweiter Band; Johannes Klatt's (1892/2016) Jaina-Onomasticon; Hiralal R. Kapadia's (1954) Descriptive Catalogue of the Government Collection of Manuscripts Deposited at the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute XVII, V; and the New Catalogus Catalogorum of the University of Madras (1949ff.). Flügel compared the data models of recent Indological data-bases such as PANDIT and the Koba Library Catalogue. On the basis of a preliminary statistical analysis of data on patronage in Klatt (2016), he argued that comparing the different methodological approaches of the great cataloguers of Indian literature may help to generate a set of categories for the computer- supported exploration of sociology of Jaina knowledge production. He then presented a new data model that he had used in his own research on Sthānakavāsins.
This was followed by Rajyashree H. Nagarajaiah (Bangalore), who focused on life stories of two noble ladies from KarnatakaRavideviyakka and Malliyakka as examples of female patronage in preserving palm-leaf manuscripts of the circa 2nd-century Digambara scripture on karma theory Ṣaṭkhaṇḍāgāma (The Scripture in Six Parts).
The paper by Piotr Balcerowicz (University of Warsaw) was entitled Royal Patronage of Jainism between the Fourth-Second Centuries BCE. Balcerowicz questioned the story about Candragupta Maurya, who is believed to have been converted to Jainism by Bhadrabāhu and, following a famine in Ujjayinī, accompanied the latter to Śravaṇabeḷagoḷa where he performed the sallekhanā rite of a ritual suicide nature. According to Balcerowicz, there is no evidence that would allow one to establish any link between the founder of the Mauryan Dynasty with Jainism, and with Bhadrabāhu in particular. Analysing the literary sources as well as paleographic and archaeological data, Balcerowicz came to the conclusion that the first ruler of note in South Asia who patronized Jainism was King Khāravela, as is indicated in the Hāthīgumphā inscription.
Next, Johannes Bronkhorst (University of Lausanne) spoke on No Literature Without Patronage: Weak Royal Patronage and its Effect on the Constitution of the Jaina Canon under the Kuṣāṇas. Bronkhorst showed that five absences characterize the Jainas under the Kuṣāṇas: absence of royal patronage, absence of monasteries, absence of Sanskrit, increasing absence of stūpa worship and absence of an established canon. He argued that they are organically related.
Annette Schmiedchen (Humboldt University of Berlin) in Religious Patronage in Favour of Jain Literary Traditions: The Epigraphic Evidence argued that most of the donative inscriptions for the benefit of the Jaina community describe either the erection of a sanctuary (vasati) or an endowment to maintain such an institution; but even complex grants hardly ever mention the copying of religious manuscripts amongst the purposes they were to serve. Schmiedchen pointed out that in contrast to Buddhist grants, which were usually bestowed upon local monastic orders, but not upon individuals, Jaina donations were meant to sponsor the religious activities of particular groups and certain spiritual milieus.
The first day of the workshop was concluded by two papers on textual transmission in Jaina philosophy. The first was presented by Natalia Zheleznova (Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences) on Akalaṅka Bhaṭṭa's Rājavārttika: An Example of Textual Transmission in the Digambara Philosophical Commentary Tradition. The second paper was read by Himal Trikha (Vienne Academy of Sciences), On the History of the "Jaina Logicians" and the Transmission of Their Works. Both speakers gave some examples that illustrated the ways of transmissions of different epistemological and philosophical concepts and doctrine in the case of Akalaṅka Bhaṭṭa's Rājavārttika and Vidyānandin's texts respectively.
The second day of the workshop was opened by Arathi H. Nagarajaiah (Bangalore) who focussed on the life story of Attimabbe (10th -11th cc.) as an example of a noble Jaina patroness and benefactor. Christine Chojnacki (University of Lyon 3) in Monks, Kings and Laymen: Transmission of Literary Works in Medieval Gujarat (11th-14th centuries) explored the typical contents of the final eulogy (praśasti) of the literary works of this period, showing how these help to explain why the Jains were particularly active in the preservation of the manuscripts and why they succeeded in doing so. Eva De Clercq (Ghent University) in Promoting, Creating and Completing Apabhramsa Treasures: Bhaṭṭāraka Yaśaḥkīrti discussed Apabhraṃśa literary compositions, which were ordered by wealthy patrons from the lay community. De Clercq drew a detailed picture of the activities of Bhaṭṭāraka Yaśaḥkīrti (15th century, Gwalior), in order to establish his position in and significance for the history of the Jaina literary heritage, especially in Apabhraṃśa literature. De Clercq argued that aside from arranging the patronage for several of the layman Raïdhū's more than thirty compositions and writings of Apabhraṃśa epic poetry by himself, the bhaṭṭāraka famously completed the work Riṭṭhaṇemicariu of one of the greatest Apabhraṃśa poets, Svayambhūdeva, which had been left unfinished by the author.
In Behind the Curtain: Who Commissioned Medieval Jain Plays? Basile Leclère (Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3) investigated why and how Jaina writers, despite the austere Jaina doctrine prohibiting entertainments such as theatre, dance, music, etc., eventually adopted the genre of theatre in the 12th-14th centuries. During this period, no less than twenty-two plays were written by Jaina poets in Gujarat and Rajasthan, and perhaps even more if we surmise that a part of this production slipped into oblivion thereafter. Leclère pointed out that in medieval times it had become quite common for a dramatist to mention the name of his patron and the special occasion of this work in the prologue of the drama. This could be helpful in order to understand why this sudden and radical shift in the literary habits of Jaina writers took place.
The paper by Olle Qvarnstrӧm (Lund University) was Patronage and the Construction of a Jaina Self-Image: The Nābhinandanajinoddhāraprabandha of Kakkasūri. Qvarnstrӧm analysed how Kakkasūri, in an attempt to create a self-image of his own tradition in response to the polity of the Delhi Sultanate, tried to construe crucial elements for establishing a Jaina identity of the Upakeśagaccha and to find modus vivendi for the peaceful relations with his co-believers as well as with those who had different political and religious views.
In Historical Literature at a Turning Point in North India's Literary Culture: The Unconventional Poetry of Nayacandra Sūri, Its Influences and Aftermath, Hens Sanders (Ghent University) spoke on the Śvetāmbara monk Nayacandra Sūri, who composed two remarkable works of literature: the Hammīramahākāvya, a Sanskrit epic poem about the Cāhamāna King Hammīra of Ranthambhor (r. 1282-1301) and the Rambhāmañjarī, a humorous love-play in the rare saṭṭaka genre composed in a mixture of Prakrit and Sanskrit, about King Jayacandra of Kannauj (1173-1193). Sanders argued that Nayacandra's poetry could be taken as a sign of the rise of vernacular languages which was considered a step forward for the development of both Jaina and nonJaina historical narratives. He discussed the influences of prabandhas and early rāso texts on Nayacandra's work, and others thereafter, such as Padmanābha's old-Gujarati epic Kanhaḍade-prabandha (1455), and the Jaina author Amṛtakalaśa's old-Gujarati Hammīraprabandha (1518).
The last paper, Literary Circles and Manuscript Culture of the Early Modern Bhaṭṭāraka Saṅghas of West India, was presented by Tillo Detige (Ghent University). Detige's presentation provided a broad overview of the literary production, manuscript culture, and patronage of the bhaṭṭāraka saṅgha litterateurs of West India, particularly on the basis of manuscript eulogies (praśasti) and colophons (puṣpikā). He also examined some specific bhaṭṭārakīya manuscript collections (bhaṇḍāras), and the texts, genres, and languages represented in them, as valuable sources for the writing of 'localized literary histories', and provided a statistical breakdown of patronage to particular types of Digambara ascetics on the basis of the manuscript catalogues of North India. The workshop ended with two roundtables that focussed on the conclusions of the papers read, and on a discussion about the future Jaina research in Europe.
Natalia Zheleznova is a Senior Research Fellow in the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow. She specializes in Jaina Digambara Philosophy. She is author of three books and a number of articles on different aspects of Jainism.

He is the real-life wizard headmaster giving Harry Potter's Dumbledore a run for his money.
Oberon Zell-Ravenheart, 68, has dedicated his life to studying the Dark Arts - even doing the shopping in his wizard costume and wand.
Now the magic master has opened the world's only registered wizard academy, the Grey School of Wizardry, as he prepares to make Hogwarts and the world of Harry Potter a reality.
'If you've ever read Harry Potter and wondered if wizards really do walk among us, perhaps behind a secret train platform, or in secret communities, I can tell you that we are absolutely real,' says Oberon, from Catoti, California.
Today, Oberon Zell-Ravenheart's Grey School of Wizardry is the first wizard school to be officially recognized as an academic establishment.
Like Hogwarts, the Grey School teaches 16 departments, including Alchemy, Beastmastery, Horse-whispering, wand-making and spell casting.
Pupils who attend s unique 'conclave' magic schools are split into four ancient houses - Winds, Undines, Gnomes and Salamanders, and like Potter, students study a defence against the deadly Dark Arts.
'In the magic community I'm referred to as the real Dumbledore,' admits Oberon. 'But before Harry Potter, people just called me Merlin, or Gandalf.'
The former teacher and counselor was teaching spells to aspiring wizards long before JK Rowling even dreamed up Harry Potter.
Oberon rose to fame in the early 1980s as an eccentric who claimed to have created the world's first unicorn. Unbelievably, the self-proclaimed 'master of wizardry' created a single-horned creature, using minor surgery on a goat, that made front page news in America.
The creature later toured America with a famous circus. 'It's every wizard's dream to have a unicorn, and we achieved that,' says Oberon, who lives with his wife, Morning Glory, 63, a witch. In 1985, he organized a diving expedition in Australia and New Guinea to investigate the age-old mystery of the mermaid.
The Grey School boasts 735 students, of which Oberon claims 100 are under-18 'trainee Harry Potters.' For now, it is an online college with regular physical wizard camps, where muggles can study seven years to graduate with a journeyman degree in Wizardry.
'She is my soulmate,' Oberon admits, 'We have everything in common. Wizards believe we are all made of the same matter, and I have never felt more connected to a human being than Morning Glory.'
It was a love story straight from Harry Potter, as the young wizard fell for his sweetheart as they learned witchcraft and wand skills. Together they founded the mystical Ecosophical Research Association in 1977, before creating a unicorn, called Bedevere, using minor surgery to the horn buds of a goat.
The animal has long since died, but Oberon keeps the remarkable skull as a prop, in his bizarre home just north of San Francisco.
There he lives with Morning Glory, and a small bearded dragon who lives on his shoulder all day. He drinks a herbal drink he calls a 'Pengalactic garglegaster'.
'Other so-called wizard schools are rip-offs and they don't allow children,' says Oberon. 'I want to help the next breed of Harry Potters learn wizardry.' Membership is £18 and Oberon promises he can teach any student, old or young, the basics of Wizardry.
The seventh and final Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is in post-production and Internet hype has already whipped Potter fans into a frenzy.
Oberon says the Potter-buzz has increased enrolment in his school: 'Of course I love Harry Potter,' admits Oberon. 'He has increased the interest in wizardry 1000 fold, as if by magic.'

About BUWIB
Founded by women graduate students in the Boston University Department of Biology, our group strives to contribute to the success of women in biological sciences by providing a forum to address issues specific to women and networking opportunities to foster mentoring relationships between women faculty and graduate students.
We organize informal lunches where faculty, BU alumni, and other speakers from academia and industry can share their perspective on career development in science and help with challenging career decisions for both men and women.
Additionally, we support BU's WISE (Women in Science and Engineering) program in mentoring and community outreach, career development, and addressing issues specific to women.
Why BUWIB?
Often times, people ask us why Women in Biology was formed. We definitely agree that equality in the sciences, particularly in biology, has become more prevalent in the past few decades. Nonetheless, it seems that while women graduate students seem to be on par with their male counterparts, women further down the academic or industry pipeline seem to be lagging. This is why we felt it was necessary to create a group that would promote women to continue in scientific career paths. Also, our group fosters the development and mentoring of women graduate students. We believe that women who have positive experiences in graduate school are more likely to continue in the sciences.
The following data about women in the biological sciences have been collected from the National Science Foundation, Division of Science Resources Statistics, Scientists and Engineers Statistical Data System (SESTAT).

Signs You Are Not Adhering to Key HIPAA Regulations
The Privacy Rule and Security Rule, both provisions of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), mandate that health institutions and professionals protect patients' personal and medical information. This data is valuable and can be used inappropriately by institutions such as insurance companies and credit checking agencies.
HIPAA sets the minimum standard for covered entities (including hospitals, healthcare clearinghouses, employer-sponsored health plans, health insurers and medical service providers) for maintaining privacy and enforcing the security of patients' health information. Institutions and health professionals must avoid carelessly disseminating any and all patients' health information.
Are you adhering to HIPAA regulations? The following warning signs mean you could be putting patient information at risk.
You've been giving law firms access to health information.
HIPAA states that covered entities may disclose health information for law enforcement purposes. However, law firms are not considered law enforcement agencies. Sharing health information without a court order is a violation of HIPAA regulations.
Law firms can only be given access to health information with a patient's consent or with an existing court order. Even if these conditions are met, law firms can only access information specifically stated in the consent or court order.
Your institution keeps health information in electronic form with one password. And it doesn't have a continuous risk analysis and management security program in place.
The absence of a risk analysis program for management of health information is a violation of the HIPAA Security Rule. HIPAA specifically states that entities must have a risk analysis and management program to determine which security measures are reasonable and appropriate. The risk analysis must be continuously implemented.
At minimum, HIPAA states that risk management must:
- Evaluate the likelihood and impact of potential risks to electronic health info.
- Implement reasonable security measures in response to risks identified in the required risk analysis.
- Document these security measures and their rationale where required.
- Continuously maintain and review these security measures.
You've been temporarily storing hard copies of individuals' psychotherapy session notes in the stockroom.
HIPAA states that notes on patients' psychotherapy treatment must have extra protection. Paper records are security risks because there is no inherent means of limiting access to the information, and one look discloses everything to intruders. That's why storing psychotherapy notes in an unsecured stockroom (even temporarily) in paper form is a clear violation of HIPAA rules.
You've been allowing immediate access to health information strictly for research purposes.
HIPAA states that any health data containing a patient's personal information cannot be used for research purposes unless the individual gives consent.
However, health information can be used for research purposes without individual consent in the following instances:
- The patient signed a waiver for the use or disclosure of protected health information for research purposes, with review and approval of the Privacy Board.
- Researchers made representations that the disclosure of protected health information is for the preparation of a research protocol, and that protected health information for which access is sought is necessary for that research.
Without the necessary consent, covered entities are only allowed to provide a limited data set of protected health information for research. But giving immediate access to health information, even for research purposes, is a violation of HIPAA regulations.
You haven't been responding to patients' requests for guidelines about the use and disclosure of personal health information.
HIPAA states that patients have the right to know how and why their personal health information is accessed. Covered entities must allow patients to see the accounting of their personal health information disclosures, and allow patients access to guidelines and protocols regarding the use and security of health information.
Not responding to patient requests for accounting and security guidelines of health information, whether through phone, email or mail, is a violation of HIPAA.
All personnel in your institution have physical and electronic access to health information.
This is a clear violation of the HIPAA Security Rule, which states that there must be physical, technical and administrative safeguards to protect electronic health information. This means that there must be restricted access to protected health information in order to maintain confidentiality and integrity.
Unrestricted access by employees to health records is a violation of HIPAA.

Collaborative hub for evaluation capacity building
Evaluators and practitioners in CS and STEM education need a single source for robust evaluation tools and professional development that would build evaluation capacity in a scalable, sustainable manner. The aims are to leverage existing knowledge and to connect networks into a larger professional community within evaluation. The Hub will be a professional one-stop home, and a community of practice, for professionals working across the fields of education and evaluation.
In this virtual space, education professionals such as K-12 teachers, out-of-school-time facilitators, project PIs, researchers, funders, and others will collaborate, build their own evaluation capacity, and uncover resources and opportunities for growth. Discussion forums and training opportunities will connect practitioners to peers and mentors, and curated collections of resources will meet the needs of various users. Ultimately, participation in the Hub will help practitioners assess the merits of specific evaluation practices and uncover ways to improve STEM education programs.

BioTrace CMD (Concentrated Mineral Drops) is an exceptional source of minerals and trace elements in a natural, concentrated solution that enables you to easily and affordably mineralise your own water.
The human body requires minerals and trace elements to support numerous biological functions. There are several reasons why mineral deficiencies are so common in the Western world:
In 1897, French biologist René Quinton proved that the concentration of minerals and trace elements found in sea water is very similar in composition to that found in human plasma.
Studies show that not only does sea water contain a wealth of mineral salts and trace elements, but it can also support pH balance because it is naturally alkaline (pH 7.9 – 8.3).
CMD contains up to 72 naturally occurring minerals and trace elements in a low sodium sea mineral concentrate sourced from the Dead Sea in Jordan.
Premier quality, highly absorbable magnesium lactate powder with a refreshing, natural watermelon flavour (does not contain MSG).
Magnesium is an important mineral that supports a wide range of functions in the body, including support of healthy heart, bones, teeth and pH balance. Magnesium also helps the utilisation of B complex vitamins and vitamins A & C.
Coral Cal-Mag is pure Sango mineral powder sourced directly from nature.
Sustainably sourced from fossilised coral heads in the Dominican Republic, Coral Cal-Mag naturally contains ionic trace minerals to assist overall mineral balance in the body. This nutrient-rich calcium formula may support bone health and pH.
This formula contains additional magnesium to support normal calcium absorption and bone mineral density. Vitamins K1, K2-4 and K2-7 are added for their ability to support calcium utilisation and to help maintain normal bone mass. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that may support bone and joint health.
BioTrace Coral Cal-Mag is manufactured in a GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certified plant from Sango (coral) calcium and is an excipient free product. The high quality capsule ensures greater protection of encapsulated nutrients.
A coral-based formula incorporating a blend of nutritional mushroom superfoods to provide support for bones, joints, teeth and an optimal alkaline pH from Calcium and Magnesium in a 2:1 ratio.

Genres: Easy Listening

Back in 2016, multi-instrumentalist Geoff Hall released Understanding The Signs and in 2019 he returns on record with While It Lasts. Geoff's earlier release had no guitar on it, instead that album featured a mix of orchestral sounding keyboard music. In a musical twist of fate, Geoff gets back to his guitar roots on While It Lasts. The nine-track, 36-minute album features Geoff's acoustic guitar front and center with added winds, strings, piano and brass backing tracks. While It Lasts has a clear influence from the Windham Hill sound of the late 1980s and 1990s, especially influences from iconic acoustic guitarists such as Michael Hedges, Alex de Grassi and Franco Morone. Although Geoff is well versed in electric guitar styles too, with its focus on alternate tunings, While It Lasts is an appealing sounding album of mesmerizing, acoustic-based guitar sounds and styles. The strings enhance the sound too, especially on track 3, "Resolved", and another album highlight called "Pheidippides", with its haunting mellotron brass sounds. Filled with scenic and pastoral vibes, While It Lasts also underscores Geoff's keen interest in film scores. Mastering engineer David Glaser who worked on Understanding The Signs, also gives While It Lasts a worthy CD sound. A standout release in a vast field of gifted guitar players making fine albums, While It Lasts is a most enjoyable album by a well-rounded guitarist and composer bringing his own unique sonic vision to the wide world of music.

Colors are drug-addled teenagers. They mainline adrenaline. They pierce soft cartilage and never stay home to wash dishes. Azure does a half nelson off a cliff into a pool of clear water and doesn't worry about cracking her skull open on the rocks. Lilac gets knocked up and barrels past protesters outside Planned Parenthood, with their half-dead-baby signs. Gold steals from the register at Forever 21, four dollars in her pocket for every two that come in. They take Uber and watch Netflix, wouldn't be caught dead on the Benjamin Moore wheel, reduced to two inch squares, hybridized strips coordinated, tamed.
The others think up dangerous tasks I have to perform as if I'm rushing a sorority: close your eyes while driving, just for a few seconds; refuse to eat for five days; hold your breath until your lungs burst. Nights, I lie on the roof and watch darkness try to rein in the stars. It never works. They fold up and blink off until the colors come back again, stronger than ever, offering to dance with me on the beach, swaying and possessive, as the waves erase our feet.

Add more water to fill halfway, and freeze.
Fill to the top, and freeze again.
For ice that's especially clear, use distilled water that has been boiled and then cooled.
This limits impurities and air bubbles, which make ice cloudy.

Just one day after the authorities had to rescue a person who fell into the Little Manatee River near Tampa, Florida after his boat overturned, another accident on the river has led to the need for the investigators and deputies. This time, two boats collided in an unclear and undefined fashion, leading to one person being killed and two others requiring hospitalization for their injuries.
Little else is known, though the two people on the other boat that was involved in the crash were questioned by investigators. Surely there will be some more news that comes out about this wreck in the future, but for the time being this story reaffirms the many lessons that you can take away from a recreational boating accident.
The most obvious is that even the most relaxing trips out on a boat can turn into nightmares. Boating is a serious activity with dangerous implications if not done properly. You shouldn't shy away from boating if you enjoy it, of course. But when you are operating a boat, you need to be in the right frame of mind and avoiding any dangerous behaviors or tendencies.
If you drink out on a boat, you put yourself at a huge risk when operating the vessel. The same goes for any speeding or dangerous operation of a boat that violates the law or would run afoul of certain water and landing zones. Treat your fun activity as a serious one, and you can enjoy a safe day out on the water.

The Fiat 124 Sport Spider was designed by Pininfarina and styled in-house by Tom Tjaarda. The 124 Spider, 124 Sport Coupé and 124 Sedan share much of their running gear. The Spider uses a shorter platform along with a shorter wheelbase, and in contrast to the Pininfarina styled and manufactured spider, Fiat designed and manufactured the coupé in-house.
The four-cylinder engine used in the Spider and Coupé is a double overhead cam, aluminium crossflow head version of the sedan's pushrod unit. It started in 1966 with a capacity of 1,438cc progressively increasing to 1,608cc in 1970, 1,756cc in 1974 and finally 1,995cc in 1979. The Fiat twin cam engine was designed by ex-Ferrari engineer Aurelio Lampredi and Bosch fuel injection replaced the previously used Weber carburettors midway through 1980.
This wonderfully presented 124 Spider 2000 has only two owners from new and showing a mere 55,000 miles on the odometer. The sumptuous interior is in good condition and the car drives well with the eagerness and responsive steering you would expect from this nimble sports car. The car comes with a recent MoT and history file and is ready to be enjoyed by its new owner.

GIScience. Top 5 Skills for a Successful Career in GIS. Career Paths. Lancement du DU GEODATASCIENTIST. Soutenances des projets de fin d'étude - année 2014 - Master 2 SIGAT. Les soutenances des stages de fin d'étude des étudiants 2013-2014 du master 2 SIGAT ont lieu du jeudi 25 septembre au vendredi 10 octobre 2014.
Ces présentations sont publiques et ont lieu à l'Université Rennes 2 – campus de Villejean dans la salle du master 2 SIGAT - bâtiment A porte 007 ou dans la salle N104 – bâtiment de la recherche en Science Sociales. Voici le détails du programme des soutenances de cette année. What *IS* GIS? It seems like a simple question.
It should be pretty easy to answer. You're a GIS professional. You've been around the technology for years, and you use it every day. Mobility in Cities is About Space - Proven Powerfully in Pictures! As gas prices rise and the hype ramps up again about electric cars as the "solution" to green mobility in cities, I find myself busy once again pointing out that the biggest challenge in cities when it comes to how we get around, isn't about what comes out of the tailpipe of your car.
Even if all vehicles became electric tomorrow (which they won't), and even if your local electric energy sources are on the renewable side, like BC's hydro-electric power (which they're likely not - it's just as likely they're on the especially dirty side, like coal), the truth is there's no totally "clean" energy source, no energy without impacts. The only real energy solutions are urban densities, use-mixes and patterns, and personal choices, that depend on much less energy. That means efforts like making walking, biking and public transit truly inviting options in our cities and communities. Electric cars do nothing to address this space issue.

A colorless LEGO kit may sound boring at first blush, but consider the spatial advantages of letting form, line and shadow stand apart from the profusion of colors normally associated with their iconic blocks. LEGO Architecture Studio's pigment-free approach is unusual for the company and intentionally so: it is made to create an experience that is more like pencil or pen sketching in three dimensions, a thinking-through-building process without the complications of shades and hues. Though the all-white block series contains over 1,200 pieces uniformly absent of color, it also comes with a colorful 268-page book that shows aspiring architects (or simply interested kids) what is possible in the world of built environments. From FastCo: "At the end of each chapter, the lead architects will all sit around a table with Lego and play with the pieces!

Twenty years ago, a driver lost at night would pull his car over, take out a paper map bought at a gas station, and pore over its folds under a dim light.
With luck and some critical thinking, he would eventually get where he was going. Today, he'd be more likely to swipe his finger across a smart phone screen and follow directions using Google Maps. As maps have changed, so have mapmakers. No longer static images, maps have become active interfaces for information exchange, continuously determining where we are in relation to distant satellites and suggesting where we ought to go, says Seth Spielman, a 38-year-old geography professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder. Today, the global geoservices industry collects, shares, and analyzes data on an unprecedented scale.

Where next for Jose Mourinho - Inter? Real Madrid? Portugal?by Chloe Beresford / 18 December 2018, 15:17Tweet
Perhaps it was the news that with a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool last weekend, Manchester United had conceded more goals (29) in the opening 17 games of the season than they did the entirety of 2017/18 (28).
Or perhaps the Old Trafford board had simply had enough.
Whatever the reason behind the timing of Jose Mourinho's sacking on Tuesday morning, reporters went into a frenzy, listing all the potential candidates to replace the cantankerous Portuguese boss.
Once one of the most highly sought-after managers in Europe, the benefits of Mourinho's winning record vastly outweighed his brusque manner and numerous altercations with anyone who dared disagree.
Yet – much like the final portion of Arsene Wenger's time at Arsenal – the modern tactical game seems to have largely passed the former Real Madrid boss by, his reputation left in tatters following a disastrous final 12 months in Manchester.
Of course, there have been some extenuating circumstances as the problems at MUFC are not all down to Mourinho, but it remains to be seen whether that will be enough to salvage his tattered reputation.
The question is where next?
It all depends who is willing to run the risk that the abject negativity shown by the Portuguese boss was entirely down to the situation, and that a fresh challenge could once again bring out the best in him.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid are listed as favourites at 4/1 to be the next to hire Mourinho, and reports in the Independent suggest that President Florentino Perez is keen to bring him back to the club.
That said, it would be a huge risk considering that the end of the tactician's last spell at the Bernabeu saw him fall out with a number of players, with current squad members Sergio Ramos and Marcelo said to be part of that group.
Next in the betting odds is a move to a Chinese Super League side at 5/1, a place where Mourinho could escape the pressure of the European media and earn vast fortunes in the process. Considering he has just received £24 million in compensation from United, it appears unlikely that money would be his motivating factor though, and a move to the Far East just doesn't seem like a Mourinho-esque thing to do.
A spell as his national team boss appears in the list at 6/1 and represents a sound bet with international football something that the 55-year-old has not yet turned his hand to. That said, current Coach Fernando Santos has a record of 38 wins in 61 matches played, a man hardly in danger of losing his job anytime soon.
Hi @ManUtd, we've received a CV from Mr J Mourinho.— Pizza Hut Restaurants (@pizzahutuk) December 18, 2018
He's just applied for a job as pizza chef.
Please can you send through a reference. Thanks.
If Juve manage to achieve their aim of winning the Champions League at the end of the season, current Juve boss Max Allegri could move on for a fresh challenge at a new club. Yet Mourinho is not the kind of man the hierarchy at the Turin-based club would likely turn to, their professional and well-polished reputation not allowing for a wrecking-ball manager to destroy all the hard work they have invested into their image in recent years.
On the surface may seem like a good bet at 8/1, but in reality it's a waste of money.
Another team listed at 8/1 is Juve's Milanese neighbours Inter, and here is a bet certainly worth placing. Here, Mourinho won the treble as recently as 2010, and supporters would relish a reunion with their former hero.
Furthermore Inter are a club attempting to re-establish themselves as a major player in Europe, and current boss Luciano Spalletti could be described as inconsistent and unconvincing at best.
With Mourinho back on board, the Nerazzurri hierarchy would be hoping they could turn back time to when he won FIFA Coach of the Year with them in order to put a smile back on their (and indeed his) face.


text: Senior TV Editor, Brian Steinberg OCT 6, 2016On the eve of the 20th anniversary of the founding of Fox News Channel, two of its most important employees are acting as if they're gearing up for a separation.The TV-news business is filled with gossip and sidelong remarks, but most is chewed over in private. In one of the most public needlings since Keith Olbermann and Bill O'Reilly hurled invective at each other and their networks' parent corporations in the mid-to-late 2000s, Fox News' Sean Hannity took on a colleague, Megyn Kelly, questioning her over remarks she made about Donald Trump and rival Hillary Clinton making appearances only on programs known to be friendly to their cause."Donald Trump, with all due respect to my friend at 10 p.m., will go on 'Hannity' and pretty much only 'Hannity' and will not venture out to the unsafe spaces these days, which doesn't exactly expand the tent," Kelly said Wednesday night. Hannity used Twitter to retort, accusing Kelly, a self-avowed "independent," of supporting Clinton.Their squabbling points to bigger challenges looming at Fox News. Megyn Kelly's contract expires sometime next year. Would she seek to leave if the atmosphere was less than hospitable? Hannity's contract is believed to last until some time in 2020. Adding to the uncertainty: Bill O'Reilly's contract also expires in 2017.Spokespersons for Fox News and Megyn Kelly could not be reached for immediate comment.snipBut he [Hannity] is popular among viewers. In September, Hannity's 10 p.m. program attracted the most viewers between 25 and 54, the demographic coveted most by advertisers, of any cable news program – marking the first time he has won the distinction since his show moved to its current timeslot to make way for Kelly in 2013. Kelly, meanwhile, led cable news in that same viewer demo for the third quarter.Ratings don't seem to be the issue for the latest Fox News brouhaha. When asked on Twitter Thursday evening why he casting aspersion on a colleague, Hannity replied that he would stand by fellow employees "when they stand by me."http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/megyn-ke...ews-1201880183/

The Customer Challenge
In early 2018, BigCommerce wanted to accelerate its product roadmap and increase revenue to stay ahead of its competition. Its plan to execute on this strategy involved tapping deeper into international markets as well as providing the option to accept different payment methods such as Chase Pay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. To accomplish this, BigCommerce needed to find a way to integrate these new payment service providers into its platform. BigCommerce quickly determined they required additional engineering resources to meet the company's demanding internal timelines and stay ahead of its competition.
Matt Weiss, Director of Engineering at BigCommerce, understood early on how challenging it would be to meet BigCommerce's goal from a technical perspective. "The hard part is there are just so many interlocking systems and so many different code bases which make the work very consuming. We knew this was a major area of growth for the company. It is also key to international expansion. If you want to be able to get into different markets, you need to be able to support the different payments gateways that people want to use," said Matt.
The Intersys Solution
In order to solve the challenging payment integration project requirements, Matt and his team had a short timeline to partner with a consulting company to help them achieve their goals. In its search, BigCommerce reviewed Intersys' Mexico Delivery Center (MDC) option. What made the MDC attractive to BigCommerce was its central time zone, cultural similarity to the U.S., and highly skilled talent pool.
To kick off the project, a team of six Intersys MDC developers was flown to BigCommerce's downtown Austin office to better understand BigCommerce's platform and the technologies involved. After two weeks of co-located training, BigCommerce felt confident a solid line of communication had been developed between the two teams. While in Austin, Intersys' MDC engineers were able to complete a test run of an integration project and therefore BigCommerce felt the MDC team was technically equipped to complete the remaining work. Following the initial training, onboarding has become much easier. All 23 of the subsequently added MDC engineers have self-onboarded from Mexico since the first six were trained in Austin.
After their training was complete, BigCommerce assigned the MDC team its first project: Chase Pay integration. Chase Pay was an immensely large project with multiple moving parts. The MDC team was tasked to work on the Chase Pay wallet integration, while the BigCommerce team worked on Chase Integrated Payments (powered by WePay) and Chase Merchant Services integrations.
Matt said when they were close to launch, the two teams (MDC and the local Austin team) were able to combine their workstreams and complete the entirety of the project on time. "It ended up being an immense accomplishment. It was a tight timeline, but we delivered successfully".
Due to the success of working with the MDC, BigCommerce was able to scale their integrations project much more quickly than they had initially planned.

Latest ASLEF News
ASLEF welcomes Jeremy's rail pledge
18 August 2015
Mick Whelan, general secretary of ASLEF, the train drivers' union, warmly welcomed Labour leadership candidate Jeremy Corbyn's public commitment on bringing Britain's railways back into public ownership if he forms the next Labour government in this country.
Mick, together with EC members Dave Calfe, Marz Colombini, Andy Hourigan and Howard Kaye, and DOs Finn Brennan and Dicky Fisher, stood side by side with Jeremy at King's Cross this morning when the MP for Islington North announced his plans for Britain's railways.
Mick introduced Jeremy - and passengers paused on their way to the station, as Corbynmania sweeps the nation - to reporters, photographers and a media scrum of TV news crews. Later, Mick said: 'Jeremy has been a breath of fresh air in politics this year. He has got people excited about politics again. That's why we are backing him for leadership of the Labour Party. Jeremy would be good for the party, good for the railways, and very good for Britain.'
Jeremy said: 'The rail network was privatised under the Railways Act 1993. In opposition Labour – under both John Smith and Tony Blair initially – promised to bring the railways back into public ownership. The Labour Party conference has twice endorsed the position that rail franchises should be taken back in-house as they expire. Privatisation of the railways has caused immense wastage: through fragmentation of the rail network, inefficient financing and by leakage through profit payments to private shareholders.
'We need to rebuild an integrated publicly-owned railway network that is run by the people, for the people. Extricating the railways from the mess of privatisation would save hundreds of millions of pounds a year – money that could be used to increase investment, improve accessibility and reduce passenger fares.
'The rail franchising process is incredibly expensive and wasteful, both to bidding companies (which pass on costs through higher fares) and to the government to administer the process.
'The railways are strategically important infrastructure and as such should be run by the people, for the people. This is uncontroversial, supported by two-third majorities of the British public (including by a majority of Conservative voters). No one thinks it controversial that our roads are run in the public sector, so why shouldn't our railways be too?
There are economic, social and environmental goals in increasing rail use and accessibility. They are too important to fail. When private providers failed on the East Coast mainline franchise, the government established a public company Directly Operated Railways to run the franchise. Under public control, it outperformed its private predecessors on both reliability and punctuality – and returned better value to the Treasury. What government serious about reducing the deficit would privatise a revenue generating asset?Yet the coalition government re-privatised the franchise.
'A Labour government would introduce a new Railways Act in 2020 to progressively bring the railways back into public control, run in the public interest to meet social, economic and environmental goals.
'All parts of the railway should work together for the common good –with strategic management representing the industry, government (local and national), passengers and workers. A more co-operative model of public ownership.
'Passengers would benefit from an integrated network, rather than having to negotiate different websites, complicated ticketing structures, different terms and conditions, different peak times on different operators, and be faced with station staff who are often unable to advise on routes and interchanges run by other operators.
'UK train rolling stock (the train carriages we sit or too often stand in) is leased to franchises by rolling stock companies – in an incredibly expensive process that has left our rolling stock outdated on many lines. Under public ownership, the railways should cut out the ROSCO intermediaries and procure rolling stock directly. These leasing companies are making double-digit profit margins, causing higher fares.
'The leasing process should be replaced by a long-term procurement strategy based on strategic long-term investment in the railways that develops UK manufacturing, skills and jobs. A national investment bank should fund long-term infrastructure improvements and improvements to accessibility for disabled passengers.
'By re-integrating the UK railways and running them co-operatively for the public good, we can bring social, economic and environmental gains: more easily understood and cheaper fares for passenger; more accessible trains and stations for disabled passengers; better terms and conditions for rail workers; benefit the environment by increasing rail capacity and reducing costs to encourage rail over car and air transport; stimulate the economy by increasing investment in new high speed rail, creating jobs and connecting more towns and cities; give passengers, rail workers and politicians more democratic say over the strategic development of UK railways; provide a more modern and integrated service for all passengers.'Back »
