A total of eight North and South soccer players made all-conference, with four coming from each school.
Three Golden Raiders earned first-team all-Fox River Classic Conference, and it was the second year in a row that sophomore defender Erica Herzog did it.
Last season she accomplished the feat as a midfielder, but because there was so many injuries on the defense, Herzog was moved there early in the season.
"She just solidified the defense," coach Tim Eirich said. "She didn't allow a single goal in conference from her position.
Junior forwards Abby Reinl and Libby Cleveland also made the first team (Reinl received honorable mention in 2021) after combining to score 39 goals to help North lead the league in scoring for the first time in Eirich's 20 years.
"Both are very dynamic scorers," Eirich said. "It's very hard to shut both of them down. You can try to shut one of them down, but the other one can score, too."
Sophomore goalkeeper Peyton Baker got honorable mention for the second straight time and is called rock solid by her coach.
"She's really starting to come into her own," he said.
After making honorable mention a year ago, senior midfielder Rylee Brotz made the second team.
The Edgewood College recruit was named her squad's most valuable player, and is called a great athlete by coach Scott Feltner because she also made state in track and field (and cross country).
"The challenge for me as the coach was to I play her on defense, or offense, because wherever she played she was the best player on the field most times," he said.
Three teammates were also all-conference honorable mention, including senior defender Erin Scholten.
"She was just a rock on our defense, and has been a rock for the past three seasons," Feltner said. "She's been the center of our defense and a defensive captain for three years. So we're really going to miss her."
Sophomore keeper Lilly Wamser ended up being one of the top-three goalies in the league, state-wise.
"She's only going to get better, and for her to get honorable mention was also pretty cool," Feltner said.
Freshman forward Alayna Lloyd contributed by helping replace the scoring of '21 graduate Halle Boldt.
"A pleasant surprise for me as coach was I had a freshman striker who gave us 13 goals," Feltner said. "It's very hard for a freshman to get any sort of all-conference honors. Because all of the coaches in the conference want their players to get that honor, and most of them are putting seniors up. For a freshman, even to get honorable mention, is remarkable."

'Gotham' Season 3 Promo Trailers Released
Published on September 9th, 2016 | Updated on September 9th, 2016 | By FanFest
It's coming closer by the day and we are getting so many promo trailers from Fox! This trailer is one of them. Take a look:
Oswald is ready to make a legacy; he wants to be remembered by the people of Gotham. Something tells me that he will be put against Fish Mooney. Or, maybe for a change in events, they'll work together.
But this is not the only promo trailer that has been released. Two other trailers have come to light by Fox. This is the first one:
The new scenes we are getting are driving us crazy! This is an official 'Bruce Wayne' promo trailer and shows how Bruce his adventure will go on. He is ready to die for what his father believed in. This, is more a side of the Batman that we know!
That is not the only trailer though: take a look at the 'James Gordon Does What He Wants' promo trailer that Fox released!
It seems that Jim officially left the forces. He does what he wants, he gets drunk when he wants, goes to sleep when he wants. He'll let 'someone else serve and protect' for a change. But, when will he go back? Will he come back?
We will know when Gotham: Mad City will come back on September 19 on Fox!

BERKELEY, Calif., and TEMPE, Ariz. (PRWEB) March 02, 2018
SparkPoint Studio, parent company of award-winning hybrid publisher She Writes Press, announced today the acquisition of Shebooks, a women's e-book publisher with the mission to bridge the gap between magazines and books by carefully curating and publishing short e-books by and for women, and designed for women's busy lives. The acquisition of Shebooks, which SparkPoint will roll into She Writes Press, is a testament to the reputation and success of She Writes Press in the hybrid publishing space and demonstrates SparkPoint Studio's continued investment and commitment to growing She Writes Press as the leader and gold standard in hybrid publishing for women authors.
Shebooks was co-founded in 2013 by Laura Fraser, journalist and best-selling author (An Italian Affair); veteran magazine editor Peggy Northrop (former Global Editor-in-Chief of Reader's Digest and former Editor-in-Chief of More magazine and Sunset magazine); and publishing veteran Rachel Greenfield (former Executive Vice President, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia).
When it launched, Shebooks was awarded a seed grant by the New Media Women's Entrepreneurial Fund, raised additional funding, and was able to publish 75 high-quality short e-book titles from well-respected authors, including best-selling author Hope Edelman; National Book Award nominee Ann Pearlman; best-selling author Caroline Leavitt; PEN award-winning memoirist Faith Adiele; and many others.
"We're very proud of having published 75 high-quality, short books by women authors," said Shebooks co-founder and editorial director Laura Fraser. "As we evolved, we saw a natural fit between Shebooks and She Writes Press, which shares a mission similar to ours, and we're pleased our stories will have a home." Added Peggy Northrop, Shebooks cofounder and president, "We are excited to see Shebooks flourish as part of She Writes Press and SparkPoint Studio."
"We are happy to bring Shebooks into the SparkPoint family and that the Shebooks mission of publishing quality writing by and for women will continue under our company's capable leadership, falling under our She Writes Press brand," said SparkPoint Studio CEO, Crystal Patriarche.
Patriarche said she will keep the Shebooks name, rebranding it with a new logo and changing it to SheBooks to match her other brands, and will operate it as a new e-book only option under She Writes Press, which has published and distributed women authors in both print and e-book to this point. Brooke Warner, publisher of She Writes Press and SparkPress (SparkPoint's other thriving hybrid imprint which publishes male and female authors), will take the reins as publisher of the new SheBooks as well.
"Brooke is a known industry innovator, indie author advocate (particularly for women), and trailblazer for hybrid publishing. SparkPoint fully supports her passion, expertise, and vision," said Patriarche. "As publisher of the new SheBooks, she will continue to seek out and publish high-quality works by women in new formats and lengths we haven't done before."
"We are working hard each and every season to grow and create more opportunities for She Writes Press and SparkPress, innovating and leading the disruption of the traditional publishing industry and setting the standard in hybrid publishing," said Warner. "We will now have additional ways for female authors to publish their stories through SheBooks, including more formats and lengths, while still maintaining our current publishing package and tried and true model that is working well for our She Writes Press and SparkPress authors."
Warner continued, "The original Shebooks authors will benefit from our traditional distribution program with Ingram Publisher Services. Their e-books will transfer to She Writes Press as publisher and be made available as SheBooks titles to 127 e-retail platforms. And we'll be looking to publish new SheBooks titles as early as the Fall 2018 list."
SheBooks submissions and new product offerings will be rolled out this Spring.

Prayer of the Day
Seventh Week of EasterMay 23rd, 2015
St. John reminds us here, at the end of his Gospel, that much more happened and was said of Jesus than is contained in the Gospels.
Christ came to set us free. His was a Gospel of freedom. He feared no one, neither the priestly hierarchy, nor Pilate, nor Herod. He stood up to them all. He disregarded the Jewish traditions with their emphasis on the Sabbath and on cleanliness, while at the same time they were neglecting interior purity – purity of heart. He ignored Jewish traditions which kept the poor in bondage.
He dined with publicans and sinners. He even drove the buyers and sellers out of the Temple, though he had no mandate to do so. Christ came that we might have life and have it to the full. His light is to shine n the darkness of our lives.
Christ wishes us also to be free, with the freedom of the children of God. He loved and respected people, the blind beggar, the lepers, the woman taken in adultery, publicans etc. He gave himself to each one. "Come to me all you who labour and are burdened and I will refresh you." Matthew 25 : 28

Trooper O'Brien (John Gavin, 1928) prod. Herbert Finlay, Australian Artists Company, wr. Agnes Gavin, dp Arthur Higgins, c. 5500 ft; Merle Ridgeway, Gordon Collingridge, John Gavin, Charles Stanford, Nellie Ferguson, Ernest Lauri, Sybil Atholwood, Jimmy McMahon, Reg Quartley, Betty Taylor, Cis Peachy, Martin Kelly, Will Harris, Violet Elliot, Walter Vincent, Carlton Stuart, William Thornton
Disowned by his wealthy father for marrying without his approval, John Alston departs for the bush and changes his name to Brown. He and his wife are killed in an accident, but their baby daughter Winnie is found and adopted by a kindly policeman, Sergeant O'Brien. Years pass, and Winnie becomes engaged to O'Brien's son, Glen, who is following in his father's footsteps by becoming a policeman. One day, young O'Brien attends the scene of a burglary in the Alston family home, and the Alstons later visit him to thank him for his help. Mrs Alston recognises a locket found by Winnie at the scene of her parents' death, and joyfully realises that Winnie is her long-lost granddaughter.
The film incorporated two long action sequences 'borrowed' from The Kelly Gang and Robbery Under Arms (both 1920). The excerpts were introduced as a digression from the main plot, to illustrate two stories that Sergeant O'Brien tells his children about their Uncle Jim, a trooper who gave his life attempting to rid the land of bushrangers. In addition, a sub-plot followed a romance between Glen O'Brien's Aboriginal friend, Moori, and a black 'flapper' whom he meets in the city; the Aborigines are grotesquely broad comic caricatures, both played by white actors in blackface.
Early in 1926, John Gavin returned to Australia from Hollywood and renewed his old production partnership with the veteran entrepreneur Herbert Finlay. Gavin and Finlay had not worked together for nearly fifteen years, and the film was Finlay's first feature production since 1912.
Shooting began in July 1926 under the title The Key of Fate, and the film was completed and censor-screened in September. The censors requested the deletion of scenes showing the shooting of Sergeant O'Brien's brother by bushrangers, but permitted the rest of the bushranging interludes to remain, presumably impressed by the film's long foreword in praise of the 'noble yet silent' men of the police force. Further alterations were made after censorship, with the addition of scenes depicting police training (filmed with the assistance of the Commissioner of Police), and the change of the title to Trooper O'Brien. The total cost came to scarcely more than £1000.
Distributed by Finlay, the film opened on 23 May 1928 at the Australian Picture Palace, Sydney, and astounded the trade by drawing 'continuous record business'. Other screenings followed with equally enthusiastic audiences. Its commercial success came from its reputation among uncritical filmgoers as an action movie about bushrangers, for press reviews were not encouraging. The Sydney Morning Herald, 13 April 1928, expressed regret that the producers had struggled against severe physical odds to achieve a fair technical standard and yet had made a film that was 'sadly lacking' in any dramatic insight: 'The story wanders vaguely on; the actors key themselves up to tremendous emotional stress over situations that are not essentially dramatic; and there is no sense of proportion whatever.' Gavin directed no further films, and after acting in The Adorable Outcast (1928) he retired from production. Pike & Cooper: 143.
Pike & Cooper: 143.

Great plate
My family bought this as a Christmas gift and it is great! I did a couple of accent nails using the layering images. The plate is nicely etched and has all the layers to give you a nice detailed nail with lots of color by just stamping. I used my rectangular stamper. And did I mention the images are stinking cute? Can be used year round just switch up the color scheme.

For a young woman to dream that her wedding is a secret is decidedly unfavorable to character. It imports her probable downfall.
If she contracts a worldly, or approved marriage, signifies she will rise in the estimation of those about her, and anticipated promises and joys will not be withheld.
If she thinks in her dream that there are parental objections, she will find that her engagement will create dissatisfaction among her relatives.
For her to dream her lover weds another, foretells that she will be distressed with needless fears, as her lover will faithfully carry out his promises.
For a person to dream of being wedded, is a sad augury, as death will only be eluded by a miracle.
If the wedding is a gay one and there are no ashen, pale-faced or black-robed ministers enjoining solemn vows, the reverses may be expected.
For a young woman to dream that she sees some one at her wedding dressed in mourning, denotes she will only have unhappiness in her married life.
If at another's wedding, she will be grieved over the unfavorable fortune of some relative or friend. She may experience displeasure or illness where she expected happiness and health.
The pleasure trips of others or her own, after this dream, may be greatly disturbed by unpleasant intrusions or surprises. See Marriage and Bride. ... wedding dream meaning
If it should be lost or broken, much sadness will come into her life through death and uncongeniality.

The groom doesn't turn up and she decides to marry the first person who comes along. I wonder whether this is a good thing to do' (Mary T).
Dreaming of wedding if single: Mary could equally as well have dreamt she was the bride, but being in her 30s and unmarned it is easier for her to consider or experiment with the idea of marriage using the image of her friend. Should she marry whoever offers? When single one often dreams of marnage as a way of clarifying. What would it be like? Could one succeed in it? Is the present panner OK? How will one achieve it?
Example: 'When I was engaged to my present husband I dreamt we were married and I looked down at my wedding ring. It was twisted and bent. In fact I now see it as a warning because we have not made a good marriage' (SW). ... marriage, wedding dream meaning

CNN Pays For Cell Phone Image, Plane "Hero" Wants Payment For Interviews
Here is a lesson in how journalism (and really, life) works in 2009: the passenger on Northwest Flight 253 being billed as a hero for helping subdue Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab will tell you his story – but only if you pay him money.
But Jasper Schuringa was already on CNN, you say? Well CNN paid up.
You'll notice CNN's eight-minute interview with Schuringa earlier today was a little awkward, especially at the end. Around the five-minute mark, Schuringa looks uncomfortable, saying "but I don't really want to talk about that," and "ok, well thank you very much," while trying to end the interview. Anchor Fredricka Whitfield, continued the questions however, while what sounds like an argument can be heard off-screen.
Here's what it sounds like happened: CNN tells Mediaite they paid a "licensing fee" for the exclusive cell phone image, which they have been using throughout the day. TVNewser reports, "Insiders tell us other networks are vying to buy the image for upwards of $10,000."
CNN clarifies the network did not pay for the actual interview during CNN Newsroom. However, there's a reason Schuringa has not appeared any further on CNN or any other network – we hear he has asked for additional payment for any future interviews.
The practice of paying a "licensing fee" rather than a direct exchange is a way networks who claim to never pay for interviews can get around the issue. By paying for images and video, they are free to say no money was exchanged hands for the actual interview – which is still viewed as unseemly for news outlets not named the National Enquirer or TMZ. But paying for something to secure an interview happens quite a bit.
Earlier this week NBC paid for the chartered jet to bring David Goldman and his son from Brazil back to the United States. And wouldn't you know it – the exclusive, first interview goes to Meredith Vieira, airing Monday on the Today show.
Clearly what Schuringa did was brave and potentially helped stop further damage caused from the attempted terror attack. But now he wants money to tell his story, while several other passengers are out talking on various cable and broadcast news outlets. Even stranger is who may be arguing, audibly off-screen, on his behalf during the CNN interview. Does he already have a publicist? And where does he show up next?
While network shows like ABC's 20/20 or NBC's Dateline often license photos and video for interviews, it's rare to see CNN get into the mix. Obviously they wanted to land the "get" – but at what cost, literal and figurative?

WASHTENAW COUNTY, MI — A two-week stay-in-place order is now in effect for all University of Michigan undergraduate students due to an increase in COVID-19 cases.
The order, issued by the Washtenaw County Health Department, is in effect from Tuesday, Oct. 20, through 7 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3.
There have been more than 1,000 confirmed COVID-19 cases among UM students on the Ann Arbor campus since the start of the fall semester, county health officials said. The majority of cases are among students in residence halls and students living in congregate settings, such as fraternities, sororities and cooperative housing, health officials said.
The cases also appear to be driven by social gatherings both on and off campus in which attendees are not adhering to state and local health orders limiting gatherings to no more than 10 individuals, wearing face coverings and keeping a distance of six feet or more between persons, health officials said.
Washtenaw County Health Department data indicates that UM-related cases now account for 61% of the county's COVID-19 cases.
Students must remain in their current designated residence, according to the stay-in-place order.
Those who live in UM housing may only return to their permanent address if they follow UM testing and checkout procedures. Students living in off-campus housing are recommended to undergo COVID-19 testing prior to leaving their current residences and stay at their permanent address for the duration of the order.
Exceptions to the order include:
- Students can attend in-person classes, including instructional labs.
- Students can leave their room/residence to pick up food and other basic needs, attend medical appointments, pick up medication, vote or participate in election related activities at polling places, attend religious practice activities or to obtain COVID-19 testing.
- Students can attend work with the approval of the employer, if the work cannot be done remotely.
- Students who have clinical rotations, student teaching or other off-campus experiential learning assignments that are done in person can continue only with approval from the college dean and disclosure to the organization of placement such that both the school and site are aware and supportive of continued participation.
- Students can leave their room/residence for physical activity outdoors in groups of no more than two.
- Students associated with intercollegiate varsity sports may attend practices and competitions provided that athletic medical staff is present during the entire process, actively supervises the team's COVID-19 mitigation activities during the practice, has the authority to suspend the practice if he or she believes COVID-19 mitigation practices require that result, and testing is conducted per governing athletic organizations (i.e. Big10) policies.
Students who test positive for COVID-19 are required to adhere to all public health isolation and quarantine restrictions set forth by the county health department and UM's Environmental Health and Safety department. In-person gatherings are strictly prohibited under the order, and visitors are not permitted in on- or off-campus housing, the order states.
The order may be extended beyond Nov. 3 if COVID-19 cases among UM students and staff continue to be substantially above the rates of other Washtenaw County residents, or if UM COVID response metrics continue to be exceeded, the order states.
UM's Campus Health Response Committee monitors several metrics and considers mitigation measures that might require further response for reevaluating campus operations. The metrics focus on disease spread, public health capacity and health care capacity and use specific information to prompt consideration of actions, the order states.

In a statement, UM President Mark Schlissel, Provost Susan Collins and Vice President for Student Life Martino Harmon said they fully support the order as it enhances protections for students and the welfare of the community.
"We also appreciate everyone in our community who has shared their thoughts and concerns with us. Your commitment to our community and patience as we address the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be essential for our success. Working together, we will bring our Fall semester to a successful conclusion in December," the statement reads.
Officials said plans for the winter 2021 semester will be announced in early November.
UM's COVID-19 dashboard shows that there were 301 cases between Oct. 11-17, the most for any week since the pandemic began. Cases in UM residence halls have continued to rise, specifically in Mary Markley Hall, where residents are now required to observe "enhanced social distancing practices" and stay home from in-person classes for the next two weeks due to an increase in cases.

The order states residents at Mary Markley need to continue to perform enhanced social distancing, including not attending in-person classes for 14 days.
Quarantine and isolation housing occupancy is at 52.8%, with 149 students in isolation housing – meaning they received a positive test result – and 168 in quarantine housing, which means they were exposed to a positive case or are waiting for test results.
UM administered 5,759 tests from Oct. 11-17, the most of any week since the beginning of the pandemic.
Last month, the Ottawa County Health Department issued a mandatory stay-at-home order for all students at Grand Valley State University due to an increase in COVID-19 cases. The order was lifted Oct. 1 and restrictions on student gatherings were lifted Oct. 16.
Restrictions lifted for Grand Valley State University students after coronavirus cases decrease
The Ingham County Health Department also recommended in September that Michigan State University students in East Lansing self-quarantine for 14 days after more than 300 people affiliated with the university tested positive for COVID-19. Dozens of large houses in the city were put under mandatory quarantine after being linked to COVID-19 cases as well.
Washtenaw County went from 200 cases the week of Oct. 4-10 to 433 new cases the week of Oct. 11-17 — the second largest increase in the state. Washtenaw County has had an average of 16.83 new cases a day during the past week, per the Harvard Institute.
The county's accelerated rate of COVID-19 transmission has moved it from the yellow zone to orange, based on a metric developed by the Harvard Global Health Initiative to assess coronavirus risk levels.
One of Michigan's largest weekly COVID-19 case increases is in Washtenaw County
To date, Washtenaw County has reported 4,229 laboratory confirmed COVID-19 cases, along with 631 probable cases, according to Washtenaw County Health Department data. That's an increase from the 4,028 the county reported on Friday, Oct. 16, including 47 cases that were reported in the past 24 hours.

Catholic higher education needs leaders and Canadian Catholic universities are having trouble finding them.
"If you don't have the kind of leadership you need you get stasis. Institutions tread water. You get issues of morale. People leave," said St. Joseph's College president Fr. Tim Scott.
In Edmonton, where St. Joseph's is a Catholic college affiliated with the University of Alberta, all is well. They've got a youthful Basilian priest in Scott who is both a legitimate academic and a man trained for Catholic leadership. But Scott knows his institution is just one or two vacancies away from the kind of desperate search now on at St. Michael's and Saint Paul.
"The pool for Catholic leadership, Catholic academic leadership, is not as deep as it is for secular leadership," Scott said.
That's because the job requirements are a long list of "must-haves."
"You have all the normal requirements of the academy in terms of the academic performance of your institution and providing internal institutional leadership," said Scott. "Plus you also have to deal with relations with the local Catholic Church, and indeed with the national council of bishops and the Holy See through the requirements of Ex Corde Ecclesia. It's a double requirement. You've got to keep your eye on both."
Having a priest whose basic formation is spiritual and theological makes the job easier, and that used to be the norm. Corpus Christi College principal Dave Sylvester knows those days are mostly gone.
"When they were walking around with collars or habits then you didn't have to worry about mission, because it was embodied in the person walking the halls," said Sylvester. "And they came not only with an academic formation, but they came with a theological and spiritual formation."
As he works toward opening the first Catholic university in Vancouver — through a merger of the old Basilian graduate theological college of St. Mark's and his own tiny liberal arts college with 200 undergraduates — Sylvester has had to think a lot about what it takes to live up to the Catholic name of a Catholic university.
"It requires, frankly, a commitment to what it's all about. But it's not impossible," Sylvester said.
One thing Sylvester is convinced of is that Ex Corde Ecclesia, the Vatican's apostolic constitution for Catholic higher learning, is not a barrier to doing the job right. The 18-year-old document remains controversial at many American Catholic colleges, where scholars have accused the Vatican of failing to understand both the importance and the nature of academic freedom. Sylvester sees Ex Corde as a strong endorsement of academic freedom.
"If you read Ex Corde, it is incredibly rich and incredibly affirming of what Catholic education should be about," he said.
Pressure on Catholic college presidents and rectors to get Ex Corde right is not the end of the long list of requirements.
"Presidents and increasingly deans are spending more and more of their time fund-raising. It just goes with the job right now," said Scott. "It adds a further wrinkle to the job description."
Sylvester calls it the art of "losing at golf."
Sylvester and Scott agree that the problem is not finding the money to pay highly qualified individuals to do a very demanding job.
"You can generally find the money. What you can't find is the staff," said Scott. "To find the right person for any job — to do anything — is difficult," Scott said.
Though it can be made to sound like an impossible task, the good news is that it's a great job, said Sylvester. While people at secular institutions may find themselves checking their most basic beliefs and values at the office door, Catholic colleges demand the passions that flow from an intellectual life grounded in a spiritual life.
"I would hope that Catholic educational communities can be places where people don't live a bifurcated life," he said. "That they can marry the academic and intellectual side with their faith side, and actually build community. That isn't registered on a pay cheque."
The great Catholic leadership searchBy Michael Swan, The Catholic Register
- October 17, 2008
{mosimage}TORONTO - There's a job opening at the University of St. Michael's College. The college's board of governors has tried to replace retired president Richard Alway before, but this time he's really gone and the governors don't have the option of extending Alway one more time.
There's a similar story brewing at Ottawa's bilingual Saint Paul University, where attempts to replace rector Fr. Dale Schlitt have foundered, again.

cmake . && make && ./biboumi
If that didn't work, read on.
Build and runtime dependencies:
expat Used to parse XML from the XMPP server. http://expat.sourceforge.net/
libiconv Encoding from anything into UTF-8 http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/
libuuid Generate unique IDs http://sourceforge.net/projects/libuuid/
libidn (optional, but recommended) Provides the stringprep functionality. Without it, JIDs for IRC users are not provided. http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/
c-ares (optional, but recommended) Asynchronously resolve domain names. This offers better reactivity and performances when connecting to a big number of IRC servers at the same time. http://c-ares.haxx.se/
libbotan 1.11 (optional) Provides TLS support. Without it, IRC connections are all made in plain-text mode. Other branches than the 1.11 are not supported. http://botan.randombit.net/
litesql (optional) Provides a way to store various options in a (sqlite3) database. Each user of the gateway can store their own values (for example their prefered port, or their IRC password). http://git.louiz.org/litesql
systemd (optional) Provides the support for a systemd service of Type=notify. This is useful only if you are packaging biboumi in a distribution with Systemd.
Configure the build system using cmake, there are many solutions to do that, the simplest is to just run
cmake .
in the current directory.
The default build type is "Debug", if you want to build a release version, set the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable to "release", by running this command instead:
cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
You can also configure many parameters of the build (like customize CFLAGS, the install path, choose the compiler, or enabling some options like the POLLER to use), using the ncurses interface of ccmake:
ccmake .
In ccmake, first use 'c' to configure the build system, edit the values you need and finaly use 'g' to generate the Makefiles to build the system and quit ccmake.
You can also configure these options using a -D command line flag.
The list of available options:
POLLER: lets you select the poller used by biboumi, at compile-time. Possible values are: EPOLL: use the Linux-specific epoll(7). This is the default on Linux. POLL: use the standard poll(2). This is the default value on all non-Linux platforms.
WITH_BOTAN and WITHOUT_BOTAN: The first force the usage of the Botan library, if it is not found, the configuration process will fail. The second will make the build process ignore the Botan library, it will not be used even if it's available on the system. If none of these option is specified, the library will be used if available and will be ignored otherwise.
WITH_LIBIDN and WITHOUT_LIBIDN: Just like the WITH(OUT)_BOTAN options, but for the IDN library
WITH_SYSTEMD and WITHOUT_SYSTEMD: Just like the other WITH(OUT)_* options, but for the Systemd library
cmake . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX \
This command will configure the project to build a release, with TLS enabled (using Botan) but without using Systemd (even if available on the system).
Once you've configured everything using cmake, build the project
And then, optionaly, Install the software system-wide
make install
You can run the test suite with
make check
This project uses the Catch unit test framework, it will be automatically fetched with cmake, by cloning the github repository.
You can also check the overall code coverage of this test suite by running
make coverage
This requires gcov and lcov to be installed.
Run the software using the
biboumi binary. Read the documentation (the
man page biboumi(1) or the
biboumi.1.md file) for more information on how
to use biboumi.

The number of fixed penalty notices issued for breaches in the COVID19 legislation has dropped significantly in Wiltshire over the past two weeks.
Since 28 May, Wiltshire Police has issued just three fines to people for failing to adhere to the Government's restrictions, and none have been issued since 31 May.
In total, over the ten-and-a-half weeks since 27 March, 222 fixed penalty notices (FPNs) were issued to 211 people. 11 people have been fined on more than one occasion.
Deputy Chief Constable Paul Mills said: "Throughout the COVID19 pandemic we have been committed to being open and transparent with our communities about how we as a police force have interpreted the Government restrictions and any enforcement which has been necessary.
"We have focused on explaining, engaging and encouraging our communities to follow the Government restrictions, and we have seen that an overwhelming proportion of people have behaved responsibly as they have understood the seriousness of the situation and the need to stay home during the height of lockdown and abide by the social distancing guidance.
"However, when necessary, we have used enforcement, and have issued 222 fixed penalty notices where people have deliberately or continuously flouted the rules.
"I hope this reassures the public that we have used the new powers carefully, proportionately and lawfully and we continue to urge the public to play their part in helping to stop the spread of the virus."
The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner leads on a scrutiny and overview process to review all police action relating to COVID19, including the issuing of FPNs.
This has ensured that clear and decisive action can be taken if any errors have been made, as well as improving training and learning for officers if needed with regards to the application of the new emergency health regulations.
The Deputy PCC provides an independent element to this to ensure transparency, and he and the DCC have also engaged regularly with our Public Service Board and BAME IAG to help to develop public confidence.
Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Jerry Herbert said: "I am committed to ensuring that no particular group or demographic is disproportionately impacted by the issuing of fixed penalty notices, so I lead a scrutiny panel to carry out a weekly review of all FPNs issued.
"This allows me to have oversight of all the new and additional police powers granted under COVID19 legislation.
"The panel has paid particular attention to how these new powers impact our minority communities, specifically people from a BAME background.
"Overall, I have been content that Wiltshire Police has been using these new powers lawfully and proportionately, which is reflected in the fact that, following a thorough review of all the FPNs issued, only 15 of the 222 have been rescinded."

The West of England's first Good Employment Charter has been launched – with Bristol's four times Academy Award-winning animation studio Aardman the first to pledge its support.
The project was kick-started this week by Metro Mayor Dan Norris as part of a push to develop good jobs, deliver opportunities for workers to progress and help local and regional employers succeed.
Others firms and organisations already pledging their support include destination marketing organisation Visit West, which runs the Visit Bristol brand, Bristol's Wake the Tiger 'amazement park', which opens this weekend, Bristol-based Service Robotics, which makes robots that help combat loneliness, and Bath software development company Storm.
The charter has been designed by trade unions, employers and employees from across Bristol, Bath and South Gloucestershire and has been launched at a time when more than 15% of workers across the region take home less pay than the Real Living Wage, while an estimated 111,000 in the wider South West are on zero-hours contracts.
Businesses receiving funding from the West of England Combined Authority, which is led by Mayor Norris, will also now be required to sign up to the charter.
Metro Norris, pictured, said: "I'm delighted to see this manifesto pledge fulfilled. No matter what job you do, everyone deserves dignity at work, fair pay and secure work in a safe workplace with clear opportunities to progress and develop.
"I want to praise the brilliant employers we have in our region such as Aardman. Recognising those good employers and seeking to persuade everyone else to do the right thing is what this is all about.
"We know that employers who are best at properly supporting their employees are usually the most successful.
"So this a win-win for employers and employees. I welcome the employers that have started the journey with us today, and I've no doubt that many, many more will join them soon."
Aardman, which was founded in Bristol in 1976 and is best known for its Shaun the Sheep and Wallace & Gromit films, employs around 130 people in its Harbourside head office near the SS Great Britain and its studio at Aztec West.
It became entirely employee owned in 2018.
Aardman managing director Sean Clarke said: "We're really pleased to support the Good Employment Charter and feel that improving employment standards is crucial for staff wellbeing, retention, engagement and productivity.
"Many policies such as the Real Living Wage and Secure Work have been in place for some time, which has already made a positive impact to the business.
"As an employee-owned business we are always looking to expand and improve engagement with the 'partners' in the studio and have various forums for partners to have a voice on the how the studio is managed and our business planning and priorities.
"Aardman is committed to providing a workplace where people and their ideas can really thrive. We believe that implementing these standards helps us to nurture our most important asset – our people – and ensures we are well placed to attract and retain our talent in an increasingly competitive talent market."
The two tiers of the West of England Good Employment Charter are:
Tier 1: Supporters – working with aspiring organisations to help them take steps to improve their own practices, including through a personalised action plan, workshops and other events, raising employment standards across the whole region, to meet the requirements of accreditation.
Tier 2: Membership – requiring employers to demonstrate excellent practice in key characteristics of employment practice. These are:
- Secure work;
- Flexible work;
- A real living wage;
- Workplace engagement and voice;
- Excellent recruitment practices and progression;
- Excellent people management;
- A productive and healthy workplace.
Employers interested in signing up to the West of England Good Employment Charter should contact: firstname.lastname@example.com

Sites in Bed With the EPO and UPC 'Covering' the 'News' Without Mentioning Any of the Overt Abuses
Summary: It is rather sad that blogs like IP Kat have turned into proponents of abusive EPO management and Team UPC increasingly resorts to lying using pseudonyms (to avert criticism and accountability); much of the rebuttal or response that's hinged on reality/facts can only be found in comments, which are still subjected to a face-saving moderation process (conducted by Team UPC)
EVERY now and then we stumble upon misinformation, half-truths, and outright lies about the EPO and UPC. It's counterproductive and harmful to those who do it; lies provoke people and beget responses, which in turn disgrace lie tellers. Look no further than the very major blowback in the comments regarding Team UPC's spin after the ratification efforts have again been tossed out (32 comments at the moment, almost all of which negative, except Team UPC showing up in the comments if or when it feels courageous enough to speak). It seems like Bristows LLP not only writes misleading blog posts (anonymously of course) but also comments on those posts. It's like an army of shills and liars. They turn their entire firm into a laughing stock. Earlier today we saw other sections of Team UPC trotting out those same lies about UPC being merely "delayed" — an utter lie they certainly tell their clients in order to save face. What will happen when clients realise that money they paid those firms was deposited in a sewer of lies? Money down the drain, almost literally…
The above video also speaks about "ViCo", which is not legal for reasons we explained here several times before. Not only have the Boards of Appeal lost their independence; stakeholders too don't enjoy fair trials and due process. That's of course perfectly fine in the eyes of Rose Hughes (AstraZeneca) whose latest article is a megaphone for those who agree with the employer. Due process? EPC? Not interested…
To quote:
The COVID-19 pandemic will change many aspects of life as we know it. One particularly prominent change has been the accelerated adoption of video-conferencing (VC) as a risk free way of ensuring business continuity. The European Patent Office (EPO) has not been left behind, with the ready adoption of oral proceedings by VC as the new norm. However, the European patent community is divided over whether this is a welcome and inevitable modernisation of EPO proceedings or a dangerous erosion of the right to be heard that should not outlast the pandemic.
Before COVID-19, all EPO Opposition Division and Boards of Appeal oral proceedings required in person attendance at the EPO by all the parties. The global pandemic, and the accompanying plethora of national lockdowns and travel bans across Europe, initially caused all in-person oral proceedings to be postponed. To keep the business of the EPO going, the EPO was forced to transition to oral proceedings by video-conference (VC). It now seems, with the introduction of a new rule of procedure of the Boards of Appeal, that oral proceedings by VC might well become the default from now on.
No, the EPO was not "forced to transition to oral proceedings by video-conference" as it was a choice to bypass the law and then make it permanent, even against the will of involved parties.
It is hardly surprising that — quite frankly as usual — the comments are dissenting (at least those that were permitted/authorised to appear).
Proof of the pudding wrote:
It is difficult to know what to make of the submissions from CIPA and the IP Owners Association. I know for a fact that members of both have expressed views directly contrary to the submissions made by the organisations (for example, Bardehle Pagenberg is currently listed as a member of the IP Owners Association).
It is also worth noting that the submission of Business Europe was strongly against the making VICOs the default mode, and that the submission of epi advocated (again) making face-to-face the default mode as soon as the pandemic is over.
The most remarkable thing about the consultation exercise, however, is that the EPO has not commented upon the CONTENT of the submissions that it received. Combined with the extremely short period (2 weeks) that stakeholders had to prepare and submit their comments, this is both extremely unusual and highly suspicious. Why bother asking for comments if you are not going to reveal which changes were made in the light of those comments, and why those changes were made?
SUEPO has not said anything since last year, but certainly it can relate to that comment, which mostly echoes the sentiments of EPO staff. Here's another new comment:
As per the post ending hint, the debate is inevitably affected by (heavy) business considerations. As long as the ViCo was presented as an emergency – thus, intrinsically pro tempore – solution to hold OP so as not to freeze EPO business, that's fine. But taking advantage of the situation to draconianly eternalize ViCo, all the more (probably? Need to see how the "appropriate" will be construed) as default option, leaves me uncomfortable. Forgetting for a second the diverging interests of UK and German firms, the key point to me is whether EPO stakeholders feel that moving from in person to ViCo OP may lead to an unfair treatment by the EPO or a risk for legal/technical misunderstanding of the party's arguments. If this is the case, yes, the change is negative and should be strongly opposed. But if the argument is simply that the importance of the proceedings in writing would overwhelm the OP, then I see little room to complain. We are brutally invited to play a different game, with different rules. Personally, I would have adopted different solutions for ex parte and inter partes proceedings. Also, the fact that the UK firms are against a mixed solution makes me think that that being physically in front of the Board – assuming the Board is in the EPO premises, of course – is somehow perceived as being advantageous (or maybe only preferable to have your client accept a negative decision)
As I explained in this video, the most disheartening thing (to me at least) is how this blog, IP Kat, turned from critic of EPO management into its cheerleader. The likes of CIPA infiltrated the blog, adding to the likes of Bristows and AstraZeneca. No wonder the media is so worthless in this area/domain and most of the signal (facts, not noise and lobbying) has been relegated to comment sections. █

Arabian Travel Market 2021 to Run Live Event in Dubai
Reed Travel Exhibitions, organiser of Arabian Travel Market (ATM), has announced that the 2021 edition of its annual showcase will take place live at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) during May 16-19.
Now in its 27th year and working in collaboration with DWTC and Dubai's Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing, the theme of the show will be "A new dawn for travel and tourism" and the spotlight will be thrown onto the current state of the industry and more importantly, what the future holds.
Supporting ATM's theme, a recent Colliers report – MENA Hotel Forecasts, estimates that 2021 will be a year of recovery, based on the assumption that hotel performance across the region is already improving. Major destinations such as Dubai and Cairo are leading the way with estimated full year 2021 occupancy levels of 68 and 65 percent respectively.
They were closely followed by Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Jeddah, Muscat and Amman, with average occupancies of 58 percent, 56 percent, 51 percent, 48 percent, and 45 percent respectively. Overall, average year-on-year growth of the 20 destinations researched was 47 percent.
Health of travel and tourism is key to the region
Prior to the pandemic, the direct contribution of travel and tourism to the Middle East's GDP was predicted by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), to reach US $133.6 billion by 2028.
According to Reed Travel Exhibitions, given subdued oil prices and a general economic slowdown due to Covid-19 restrictions, it is clear that the Middle East's regional economy will be relying on travel and tourism to recover quickly, once a vaccine has been fully developed and rolled out.
Arabian Travel Market Exhibition Director ME Danielle Curtis said: "Last week, Pfizer released the first reading of its Phase-3 trial data for its Covid-19 vaccine, announcing that it was more than 90 percent effective in preventing the coronavirus, based on interim data analysis".
If approved by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA), Pfizer estimates it can roll out 50 million doses this year and up to 1.3 billion in 2021.
"So, we are confident that by May next year, we will be on the threshold of a new dawn for our industry," Curtis said.
Arabian Travel Week
ATM 2021 will also play an integral role in Arabian Travel Week and for the first time, a new hybrid format will mean a virtual ATM running a week later to complement and reach a wider audience than ever before.
Other notable features of Arabian Travel Week will include the International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM) 2021, Travel Forward – the travel technology vertical, Buyers Forums dedicated to key source, a virtual digital influencers' speed networking session, a hotel summit and a responsible tourism program.
The show will strictly adhere to all DWTC's stringent health and safety guidelines and will set out to provide a touchless and seamless experience.
The Arabian Travel Market 2021 is the sister event of WTM London.

The Scotland under-21 was reportedly a target of Millwall and has previously been linked to Hibs.
Alexander made two signings on deadline day with another to be confirmed and also secured Stephen O'Donnell on a contract extension.
"For me the biggest bonus is keeping our best players in the building," he said. "We knew there was a possibility of them leaving.
"We turned down substantial bids for Allan Campbell in January.
"We brought in a little bit of experience with Eddie Nolan and Jordan Roberts and there's another young player on his way."
O'Donnell's short-term deal with the Steelmen expired at the end of January but the Scotland defender elected to stay at Fir Park ahead of the summer's European Championships.
Steven Lawless re-joined to the club earlier in the month and Harry Robinson as returned from loan at Queen of the South.

Pandemic-Safe Vacations for Families During School Breaks
Partnerships ~ Clara Beaufort
While summer is the traditional travel season, it's not the only time of year for vacations. The school year has a slew of long weekends and multi-day breaks on the calendar, creating chances for families to take quick vacations.
Since school breaks can be excellent times to do something fun, it's wise to plan for them. Here are some tips for taking pandemic-safe vacations during school breaks.
Go with a Staycation at Home
During COVID-19, going with a staycation at home could be your best bet. While that may make it seem like you aren't actually taking a break from your usual day-to-day, that isn't necessarily the case.
You can have a great time without ever heading off of your property by planning the right activities. Some options worth considering are:
Hosting themed movie nights
Having a spa day
Taking virtual museum tours
Cooking brunch as a family
Doing kid-friendly science experiments
Making pizza from scratch
Trying a new craft project
If you've got a good-sized yard, try backyard camping. You can make meals on the grill, play fun games like horseshoes or bocce, or stargaze as a family. It's a great way to bond and experience something a bit different, all while staying home.
A movie night can be a great way to enjoy a staycation with the whole family!
If you want to keep your yard secure while you camp, consider installing a fence around your property. Usually, the easiest way to go is to search for a local fencing company, focusing on those that are licensed, bonded, and insured.
According to Angi, installing a new fence averages $4,500, depending on the size and materials, but it's worth the investment if you want to keep your family safe. Just make sure you get your underground utilities marked before installation begins to ensure they don't accidentally hit anything while putting up the fence.
Skip the Hotel If You Travel
Hotels might not be the safest option if you decide to travel away from home during your family vacation. Instead, consider going with an alternative. Options like whole-house rentals could be great choices. You won't be close to other travelers, decreasing your risk of COVID-19 exposure.
Another great alternative is an RV. You'll have your own private space that comes with you along your journey, making a road trip easier to keep COVID-safe. Plus, you can stay at campgrounds in state parks or other scenic areas, giving you the ability to spend time in the great outdoors.
Choose Lower-Risk Activities
If you decide to venture out in public for fun, go with lower-risk activities. Hiking and biking in a park can be a great option, particularly if you head out on lower-traffic trails. Water parks and pools are considered low-risk spaces, while skiing and snowboarding make social distancing simple.
Just focus on options that let you avoid crowds and remain outside. That way, you can reduce your COVID-risk while having fun as a family and being better prepared to go back to school.

I decided to redo my spare bedroom as it was looking dark and unloved. My intention was to rip out
some old cupboards and replace some others. Then I came across Annie Sloane chalk paint
and I decided to give it a go.
I love the results. No sanding no priming. Just be bold and go for it.

David A. Sampson, President and CEO of the American Property Casualty Insurance Association (APCIA), has warned that industry solvency could be at risk if insurers are forced to pay COVID-19 claims that are not covered by current contracts.
He noted that standard event cancellation insurance policies do not include communicable disease coverage such as COVID-19 (also known as coronavirus).
"While consumers typically have the option to purchase broader coverage through special endorsements, that exposure only represents a small fraction of insurers' surplus," Sampson explained.
But as social distancing becomes more widely practiced around the world to slow the spread of the virus, more and more major events are being cancelled or postponed, and this is putting a spotlight on insurers.
This could result in insurers being forced to pay out on policies even if they specifically exclude communicable disease claims.
While Sampson expressed concerns about the impact this could have on industry solvency, he asserted that the US property-casualty market continues to show strong financial stability.
"Insurers' financial solvency is closely monitored by regulators with a surplus of over $822 billion in the U.S. and $2 trillion globally," Sampson said.
He added: "Insurers also have extensive emergency continuity plans they are implementing to continue providing services effectively during times of crisis."
The APCIA is the primary national trade association for home, auto, and business insurers, which aims to protect the viability of private competition for consumers and insurers.
