Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Breathing new life into North End business
A new project is looking for some suggestions on how to help the North End get down to business.
Project Re(NEW) — where the NEW stands for North End Winnipeg — is a study and series of community engagements with the purpose of revitalizing North End business.
The project was commissioned in the spring by North End Community Renewal Corporation (NECRC) and its program, the North End Business Development Centre (NEBDC), and had its first stakeholder session on Tues., Oct. 22 at NEBDC (607 Selkirk Ave.).
"What we we're looking for is an identity, a vision and strategic plan for the North End commercial districts," says Richard Halliday, business development manager at NEBDC. "We're talking with the community as a whole. That could be residents, business owners, all sorts of stakeholders, and then we're going to continue that into more focused discussions around different community renewal concepts."
After the sessions, NECRC and NEBDC hope to have a strategic plan in order to attract businesses and investors to the North End.
"At the same time, there will be some guidelines and recommendations for streetscaping and architectural design, tying in each area by its own identity," Halliday says. "For instance, Main Street will be different than Selkirk Avenue, and Dufferin too. They all have their different times in history and we're looking to renew those, have these guidelines and recommendations so any new developer or investor can sit in with the local community who is already here."
He says there was a good turnout at the first stakeholder session at NECRC, at which residents, businesses, real estate agents and service agencies were represented. The meeting included a video presentation on Better Blocks, which Halliday says how "change can be made without a lot of investment by having community involvement."
There will be three more stakeholder sessions in November, with a "creative spaces" discussion on Nov. 13 at NEBDC and presentations on initiatives like Better Blocks and Popuphood — which looks at retail and renewal — on Nov. 26 and 27. The venue has yet to be determined.
Halliday says the biggest hurdle to North End business is the perception that the area is unsafe and undesirable.
"Granted a lot of (the perception) is true, but there are a lot of good things too. Unfortunately the good things in the community don't seem to surface as prominently as the negative," he says. "These are good neighbourhoods with good, hard-working people, who are interested in making a better community and a better life. There's opportunity"
Everyone is welcome to attend the Project Re(NEW) stakeholder sessions. For more information go online at: http://projectrenorthendwpg.com

Erectile Dysfunction Health Center
A Partner's Guide to Erectile Dysfunction
Anne, 63, of Medford, OR, knows a thing or two about erectile dysfunction (ED). Her husband, now 58, first started taking medication for it about 5 years ago.
"At first you think, oh, you're getting older and slowing down. But it got to the point where it was really bothering him, and he was unable to have sex without the drugs," says Anne, who asked that we use her middle name only,

Getting Intimate: Talking Together About ED
Never before has erectile dysfunction been so openly discussed in our society. It appears in everything from news reports and comedy sketches to national advertising campaigns. "But ironically, it's still very difficult for many couples to talk about sex, and especially to talk about erection problems," says Brian Zamboni, PhD, a clinical psychologist specializing in human sexuality at the University of Minnesota. That's too bad. For most couples, talking about erection difficulties is the first...
Read the Getting Intimate: Talking Together About ED article > >
He is far from alone. Some 18% of all men in the U.S. have ED, and the odds of developing it increase sharply after age 40.
People who have diabetes, as Anne's husband does, are three times more likely to have ED than men who don't have diabetes. The disease can damage the blood vessels and nerves needed for an erection.
Having a partner with ED can be difficult to deal with, but think of it from his perspective. "We as women cannot even imagine how frustrating it is for them -- at least, that's what my husband tells me," says Anne.
Get to the Root of ED
Although it can feel personal, you shouldn't blame yourself for your partner's erectile dysfunction. It usually has a combination of causes -- and, experts say, you probably are not one of them.
"It's pretty rare for the source of ED to be the person that he's having sex with," explains sex and relationship expert Ian Kerner, PhD.
"Some women will feel like, 'He's not attracted to me, he's not into me, or he's bored by me.' And that's really relatively rare compared to the other more likely factors."
In older men, blood vessel problems tend to be the main reason for ED. In fact, since the blood vessels in the penis are smaller than those in the heart, heart disease may show up in the penis first. Eighty percent of men who land in the ER with a first heart attack say they developed ED at some point in the 3 years before, says Daniel Shoskes, MD. He is a professor of urology at Cleveland Clinic.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Talk to Al Jazeera | 03 Dec 2013 15:51 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Iran, Oman, Saudi Arabia
Mohammad Javad Zarif, the Iranian foreign minister, is the man at the centre of Tehran's historic agreement on its nuclear programme.
The Islamic Republic has agreed to restrict its nuclear activities in exchange for a partial lifting of sanctions but says its ultimate goal is a permanent solution that would allow it to pursue a peaceful programme.
But there are sceptics - the Israelis describe the agreement as a "historic mistake" and many Arab countries - in particular Saudi Arabia - are worried Iran is simply trying to buy time.
The final settlement has two important segments: an Iranian peaceful nuclear programme including enrichment on Iranian soil, with the necessary provisions to ensure its peaceful nature and the removal of all sanctions .... These are the two important elements of the final deal.
Mohammad Javad Zarif, Iran's Foreign Minister
But Javad Zarif has his own thoughts on Tel Aviv.
"If this deal is to ensure Iran never produces nuclear weapons which is the aim of this deal and it is an aim that we share why should they [Israelis] be worried, other than the fact that they have been trying to use the smoke screen in order to evade and divert international attention from their atrocities against the Palestinians, their daily violations of most basic tenets of international law and the fact that they remain the single most important security threat to this region and to the world."
In response, Iran's top diplomat is on a charm offensive this week in the Gulf region after Oman's role in mediating the "secret" talks with the US.
"They were not secret back channels. We had discussions with the Americans on the sidelines of P5+1, extensive discussions, and these discussions produced this deal in addition to the very serious discussions we had within P5+1. Oman has played a significant role in the past with regards to clarifying position of the US on Iran," said Zarif.
Asked if sanctions have really dented Iran's nuclear activities, he says, "When sanctions started Iran had less than 200 centrifuges. Today Iran has 19,000 centrifuges so the net product of the sanctions has been about 18,800 centrifuges that has been added to the Iran's stock of centrifuges, so sanctions have utterly failed."
So, can Iran build bridges with its Arab neighbours? And will Javad Zarif attend talks in Geneva to resolve the Syrian conflict and help end more than two years of killings and destruction?
In this episode of Talk to Al Jazeera, Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif talks about the recent nuclear deal, Iran-Arab relations and Iran's role in the Syrian conflict.

SERVICE CREATION - A factory approach
Rapid assembly of services will be the key differentiator for telcos striving to beat out cable, entertainment and Internet companies encroaching on their customer bases says Brian Naughton
Telecom carriers will have to go through a significant metamorphosis as the lines blur among telecom, entertainment, retail, and Internet domains. In hotly contested triple- and quad play markets, carriers must become customer service providers (CSPs) capable of making the transition from me-too services to truly converged, on-demand services that differ from those offered by MSOs and non-traditional competitors.
To achieve that end, CSPs will have to work with third-party developers to create scores, if not hundreds, of niche services that leverage their substantial investments in IP networks. After all, they laid the fibre to enable voice, video and data to come together over the same connection in very short time frames. That unique ability should enable CSPs to create prodigious catalogues of converged services without disrupting the underlying architecture.
The goal should be the rapid assembly of services. To that end, a mindset change will be necessary. Carriers will have to move away from the staid and stodgy belief that service launches must take months or years, to a mindset that products can be rolled out in hours, if not minutes.
That will require CSPs to move into a manufacturing mindset, where the concepts of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) come to fruition. The marriage of the two enables hundreds, if not thousands, of services to be rolled out in an "assembly line" fashion.
In the same way that the car manufacturing industry illustrates components for new products in CAD systems, carriers can illustrate the components of new products and move service "components" along an "assembly line" to CAM systems, where coding, rules and algorithms can be determined automatically.
The lifecycle management enabled by the CAD and CAM principles is now beginning to burgeon in telecom. In other words, the knowledge of bundling will be removed from existing systems and centralised in a location in which all service and product building blocks can be modelled within a "workbench" environment.
That reflects somewhat the precepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA), which promulgates the interchangeable use of building blocks among applications.
"While SOA has been hyped for many years as a common framework for segmenting operations and coupling services, the reasons for it are far more compelling now," says Larry Goldman, co-founder and senior analyst with OSS Observer. "The Internet has created an expectation of immediate gratification, so carriers have to figure out how to roll out services at the time of demand."
After heavy investments in IP networks, Goldman believes operators have to concentrate on the software side of the equation. "CSPs should focus on re-use within their execution environments. That means services must be decoupled from networks for integration with business processes."
Goldman says carriers can then begin to drive re-use –not only of common data models, but of formats, naming conventions, interfaces, and design processes across the organisation.
To galvanise the concept of 're-use', CSPs must break back-office silos down into components that represent operational elements of network and IT systems, as well as product, service and resource specifications. These components can ultimately be turned into loosely coupled "building blocks" for interchangeable use across different services and products.
As carriers create a library of building blocks, SOA environments become true service delivery platforms (SDP) from which new functionality can be driven (i.e., SIP capabilities around presence, location and more advanced voice mail services that can be used in creative product bundles). By implementing common SIP servers for applications needing connectivity over IP networks, carriers can procure data from disparate sources so that billing authorisation and billing detail are consistent across the organisation.
As new services are created through increasingly agile SDPs and execution environments, CSPs will have to simultaneously orchestrate changes within OSS/BSS applications. The complexity of orchestration for dynamic services will require full automation of activation, ordering and billing processes so that fulfilment and assurance processes can seamlessly work for new service rollouts.
Within the TeleManagement Forum's Product & Service Assembly (PSA) Initiative, an independent consortium of leading telcos and vendors has been working to develop a revolutionary IT reference architecture to satisfy the burgeoning need to standardise and simplify the way that products and services are designed, assembled and delivered. This reference architecture incorporates the CAD/CAM manufacturing approach by enabling the creation of "building blocks," which carriers can assemble into service or product offerings.
At the heart of the IT reference architecture is an active catalogue that is a design-and-assembly environment within which service components can be defined and configured without any need for writing code. This catalogue aligns service design and creation with service execution so that product managers can decouple management of product lifecycles from OSS, BSS and network engineering.
Within the building-blocks lies is a rich library of components and products through which product managers and architects can drive dependencies, prerequisites, exclusions and visual metaphors about service components.
"We have leveraged our deep understanding of the fulfilment process as well of that of our customers and partners to define components that could be used interchangeably across services and functions," says Simon Osborne of Axiom Systems, one of the founders of the PSA Initiative, noting that Cable & Wireless, BT, TeliaSonera, Atos Origin, Huawei, and Oracle have worked to define the building blocks.
To simplify the definition and configuration of services using those building blocks, a visual and intuitive GUI has been created for product managers to view loosely coupled composites or aggregate services, as well as for IT to create, test and publish components for re-use across the organisation.
The essence of the IT reference architecture is that it has been designed with a "bilateral" top-down/bottom-up approach in mind.
"This IT reference architecture empowers marketing professionals to define service components without having to go through IT departments, and enables IT to use pre-tested business options and variants to drive component use across the organisation," comments Osborne.
For example, ringtone downloads, VoIP, VoD, and find-me services each require their own sets of fundamental parameters around availability, order-taking and activation. However, there inherently exists overlap in what each service requires. The active catalogue helps carriers to leverage that fact by establishing interchangeable building blocks in one catalogue that can then be rearranged to support other services as well. Rather than having to write new code to launch each new service, carriers can specify necessary attributes in reasonably basic forms so that one catalogue and order-handling system can handle many different services.
Simon Farrell, IT Architect, Cable & Wireless comments: "We can define residential VoIP and the prerequisites for broadband DSL, and are able to stitch together relationships among end points to execute on fulfilment request" - demonstrating that graphical representations, such as a 'green light' for 'it's a go' or 'red light' for 'outstanding dependencies' enables C&W to assemble end-points that must exist on the enterprise service bus (ESB).
In other words, there are distinct interfaces, order types and end points specific to any services that are to be fulfilled. Through the interface, the active catalogue provides an environment for modelling end points into an assembly landscape that defines relationships and polices exceptions or dependencies.
"A residential home triple play service that requires a broadband and VoIP server, as well as IPTV server, will rely on rules around what third parties must be called upon to provide that hardware, and in what sequence those systems should be called upon," explains Osborne. "That sets the stage for how data travels interface to interface as the service transitions through the lifecycle."
While the active catalogue does not run every task, it calls the service end points that, in turn, run the processes externally. "This active catalogue provides a way of defining the end point and rules around those endpoints, so fulfilment dynamically figures out what end points to call upon," he says.
As orders are fulfilled through the active catalogue, the software creates an inventory of pre-existing capabilities for end users. The software records against every instance of an order, using the same language that was modelled at service end points. Ultimately, that means CSPs end up with rules sets that are usable for up-sell and cross-sell capabilities. "If 35 per cent of customers have a certain type of access, CSPs can target them with new services that tie to that type of access," notes Osborne.
In the long run, that ability drives versioning and lifecycle management. "If a service is to be deployed for only six months, there can be published rules stating that the service will be decommissioned in a certain time period, and warnings can be issued at the end of the period to those parties with bundled components."
That can be particularly important among partners who are re-branding wholesale offerings, or for inter-departmental strategies at large telcos, where orchestrating processes can be complex. "Ultimately, you get a federation of catalogues with clear demarcation of where the SLAs are among different departments," Osborne explains. With a federation of catalogues, CSPs start to create a topology through which all catalogues and associated end points can be referenced for more intelligent cross-sell and up-sell actions.
To ensure there is an accurate model of infrastructure, this revolutionary IT reference architecture has been designed to sit on top of most major network resource management systems (inventory) that serve as databases of record for carriers.
The architecture can serve as the foundation for collaboration among product managers, service and network engineers, as well as operational communities. By creating a central point for standardising multiple vendors' products, carriers can move closer to the SOA principles they strive to embrace.
As carriers continue to expose their design environment to different departments and customers, they can begin to truly "mass market" the configuration of products. That sets the stage for commonality in how components, access controls and security measures are employed across the enterprise and partner environments.
As that commonality grows, carriers can get closer to self-service in management of product and service lifecycles. Then, they can be better positioned to create value-adds in their IP services domain—especially if they can roll out sophisticated services in a matter of hours, or even minutes.

The paths of two people crossed Thursday in the parking lot at Target in Bryant. Less than 24 hours later, one life ended at the hand of the other and a community struggles to understand why.
The tragic death of Heather Baker has left me puzzled and, quite frankly, numb.
I was driving back to Benton from Bryant by taking the long way through Bauxite. Along the way a sheriff's department vehicle sped by me in the opposite direction as if on fire with lights and siren blazing. Flipping on the police scanner, I heard the sounds of an emergency in progress.

Numbers Game: As minutes mount, Durant's game declines
After an exhilarating, extraordinary Game 4 overtime Grizzlies win, everyone's tired. Watching a game with so much on the line is hard enough, but playing that hard for that long is truly draining. The Grizzlies' 103-97 victory was a classic case study in the idea that players can only give so much before their performance starts to drop.
The human body can only provide a certain amount of energy before it starts to decline. Managing that natural process of decline is a job for player and coach alike. Monday night, there were two methods of dealing with that on display, one of which certainly seemed to work better than the other.
Oklahoma City's Kevin Durant is the first and most obvious case. Monday night, Durant struggled again down the stretch, shooting 2 of 13 from the field in the fourth quarter and overtime, scoring just 5 points in the process. He went just 1 of 4 in the fourth quarter of Game 3 and missed two key free throws with under a minute to play. He once again missed a free throw late in the game last night. For a 90 percent free throw shooter, any miss is noticeable, but multiple late-game misses draw attention to a bigger issue.
In fourth quarters in the regular season, Durant shot a higher percentage from the foul line and only a marginally lower percentage everywhere else. But that was Durant with Russell Westbrook, and that Durant averaged 38.5 minutes per game and had significantly more help. In the eight postseason Thunder games since Westbrook was injured, Durant's playing almost 45 minutes per game at playoff intensity. His averages have dropped significantly as a result. (If you're viewing on a mobile device, click here for graphic.)
That's a pretty staggering fall. Bear in mind Durant only missed nine free throws in fourth quarters with less than three minutes to play all season long — and only four of those misses came in one-possession situations. He's missed three of those one-possession free throws in the last two games in FedExForum alone.
Certainly the defense the Grizzlies have applied in these fourth quarters has made life more difficult for Durant. Tony Allen has done a tremendous job being physical with him and denying him the ball whenever possible. Additionally, the task of guarding the much bigger Marc Gasol tires Durant further. Poor free throw shooting speaks to a bigger problem of physical (and mental) fatigue.
Further illustrating this point from Monday night's game is a comparison of three Grizzlies. Mike Conley and Gasol played 48 minutes last night, just like Durant. Despite both players having excellent nights overall (23 points, 11 rebounds, six blocks from Gasol; 24 points, just one turnover from Conley), in the fourth quarter and overtime they combined for 8 points on 2 of 10 shooting.
Compare that with Zach Randolph, who played just 40 minutes due to a combination of early fouls and a coaching decision to play Darrell Arthur more for largely defensive purposes (guarding the outside shooting of Serge Ibaka). Randolph's game requires tremendous energy and effort, both of which were on display late as Randolph scored 11 points and grabbed five rebounds in the fourth quarter and overtime.
Managing minutes is one of the most difficult aspects of coaching in the NBA. Players constantly want more minutes but those minutes come at a price. Fatigue can turn great players into good ones, and in a series as close as this one has been, that alone can be the difference down the stretch.

Check out these new additions to Westchester County, NY, that cater to kids and families.
Social Butterflies
Sociable Kidz LLC, a new program that teaches children social skills and strives to build self-esteem and confidence, began offering lessons in March. The program was started by the Westchester-based duo Susan Hendler, an elementary school teacher, and Monica Weber, a special education teacher.
Hendler and Weber realized that the social skills they taught in their own classrooms would improve the lives of even more children if they offered the same lessons to all Westchester families. Sociable Kidz programs serve kids ages 4-15 and are open to children with or without special needs. This summer's sessions began June 26 and will run for eight weeks.
In addition to teaching kids social skills, Sociable Kidz offers an optional support group that gives parents access to the tools and ideas behind the program. The support that kids receive through the program can be applied to everyday activities, and having parents reinforce those tools is a great help, Hendler and Weber explain.
This summer, Sociable Kidz is offering 10 percent off all sessions; the program schedule can be found at www.sociablekidz.com.
Located at 1600 Harrison Avenue, Suites 307C and D, Mamaroneck. 914-374-5024. www.sociablekidz.com.
Green Living By Design
Earlier this year, Lisa Varley McCool, A.S.I.D., founder of McCool Designs, added community workshops to her list of services for Westchester families. McCool, who has worked in the interior design field for the past 10 years, will offer quarterly mini lectures about the latest and greatest products available to make your home peaceful and a reflection of your family, because, as McCool says, "a family's home is its heart."
The focus of her business, McCool says, is to address the importance of functionality in the home through the filter of a designing eye. Native to the Westchester area, McCool helps families design their homes through basic consultations and provides customized, high-end designs. According to McCool, she creates "interiors [that] are chic, cool, and contemporary, capturing moments in life."
Gearing her services towards families and green design makes McCool stand out from other designers, she says. She offers an introduction to green living in order to decrease your carbon footprint and introduces organic materials into the design process.
A mother herself, McCool understands that families intermingle within their home, and that it is important to "create a sanctuary for your child."

Meh... Bedømmelse: 1 ud af 5 stjerner
Bedømmelse: 4 ud af 5 stjerner
It's a great add-on to finally improve Youtube comments and remove spam.
Is there any possible way for me to add quotes by myself, or could you add on more quotes?
Bedømmelse: 5 ud af 5 stjerner
Very cool to use. Instantly improves Youtube by cutting away all the clutter.
As far as improvements would go, more quotes wouldn't hurt and more philosophers (possibly in a different plug-in) would also be nice.
Cool but repetitive Bedømmelse: 4 ud af 5 stjerner
The quotes fit very nicely with most videos, my only complaint is that they're not random enough, I can constantly see the same quotes at the top, which is annoying.Denne anmeldelse er af en tidligere version af tilføjelsen (1.0).

Hi: 13° Lo:3°
By Kevin Unitt Wednesday 19 December 2012 Updated: 27/12 09:05
THE COMPANY which runs Warwick Castle has failed in its bid to overturn a £350,000 fine following the death of a man who fell from a bridge at the historic venue.
Merlin Attractions Operations Ltd were convicted of two healthy and safety offences in April this year, following a seven-day trial, and ordered to pay a £350,000 fine plus costs of £145,000.
It followed the death of 72-year-old Berkswell man George Townley in December 2007 after he suffered fatal head injuries falling 14 feet from the castle's Bear and Clarence Bridge.
Merlin claimed the fine was "manifestly excessive" because the trial judge acknowledged it was an isolated lapse in what was otherwise a good health and safety system. They took the case to the Court of Appeal in London but in 17-page judgement delivered on Thursday (December 13) the appeal was rejected.
The court held that the trial judge was clearly entitled to conclude there had been a serious breach of Merlin's health and safety systems in relation to the Bear and Clarence Bridge. The breach, they added, had resulted in an obvious danger of at least serious injury, to which a very large number of people had been exposed over many years, a product in part of failure to react appropriately to advice given as far back as 2003.
The prosecution of Merlin was brought by Warwick District Council, a spokesman for which said their actions had been vindicated by the Court of Appeal verdict.
District environment chief Coun Michael Coker added: "It is essential that employers maintain suitable health and safety standards in their workplaces. When companies substantially fall below the required standard, it is important that such companies, however large or well thought of, are brought to account."

Stolen puppy in Milw. -- returned !!!
Thank Goodness McGyver was found and returned to his owners !
Remember in Dec ..... in Milwaukee .... a lady was walking her pit bull puppy , she got attacked and they stole the dog . He's been missing and the owners were heartbroken .
He's been returned ! A stranger on Facebook started an effort to find him. You'll have to read the article - it has more of the story .
Here is a link that might be useful: Puppy Returned !
oh that is a fantastic result for the family and especially mcguiver! I can only imagine the worry and stress the family must have gone through not knowing where he was or how he was being treated, or what he may be being used for. Thank god so many people got involved and made this happen so he could be back where he belongs. What an emotional story.
There was a similar story in New York City about a month ago. Someone stole a little girl's new puppy. They did a story on local TV, calling him a "grinch". Days later, a woman (who had NOT seen the TV coverage) saw a bum on the street selling a dog she knew was a purebred. It didn't look right to her, a bum with an expensive dog, so she immediately bought the puppy for $200 cash and brought him to her vet and he had a micro-chip. So the little girl got her dog back thanks to that Wonderful Lady!
Our community really came together to find this puppy. I had very little hope at all that they would get him back. I was just shocked when they did. It's so sweet to read their FB page about how he was opening his Christmas presents and how happy they are that he's home. Thank God for the people that bought him and then turned him into the police, and thank God for that lady in NY.

(Image removed from quote.)Adam Madison, Special to ESPN.com and their Fantasy Baseball writer, agrees with you in today's report:"It should go without saying that you don't want anything to do with Livan Hernandez, but his ownership has increased 10 percent in the past week, so maybe not. Hernandez's ERA and WHIP are still sterling, but he's struck out just 10 batters in 31 innings. He has the lowest batting average on balls in play in the league at .177 and isn't limiting his fly balls nor inducing ground balls particularly well.In short, it's a fluke, and if you pick him up hoping to milk him for all he's worth, the egg on your face will be entirely of your own doing. NL-only leagues don't have much of a choice but to throw him out there, but mixed leagues of any size should stay far away." ****************************************On the other hand, the Braves SUCK this year!

What Does The Color Red Mean or Symbolize in The Bible
Perhaps one of the most passionate, meaningful, and sometimes even deadly colors of all is the color red. For many, it is a passionate and fiery color—one that can stir up seduction, which is why a common phrase is "fiery passion." Yet, the color takes on a much more powerful meaning in the context of the Holy Scriptures. It can be argued, with much support, that the most meaningful and symbolic color in the entirety of Scripture is none other than red. It goes by another name at times, thoug … [Read more...]

People often wonder if colors mean anything in the Bible. The answer is simple: they can, but they also don't have to.

Easter blessings from UCAN
Dear Reader,
There is no more important week in the year for Christians than this Holy Week. We call it Holy because of the mystery we celebrate - God's gift of His son who loves us to his death on Calvary and beyond.
Because of that love, we wish each other Happy Easter even when we know there is a lot of tragedy about it - Good Friday. As Christians, we know that what we see happening with and in Jesus goes to the heart of what we know from our own experience of life.
At the Second Vatican Council, the Christian lives we all lead were described as being shares in the Paschal Mystery. We have our share in the death and resurrection of Jesus every day. Our lives are part of the Paschal Mystery.
At UCAN, we work to describe that mystery in the unfolding tragedies and astonishing blessings of the people we seek out and report, feature and comment on.
While at times deeply distressing work, this effort of ours gets its coherence in the same way the death of Jesus did - because of the astonishing grace of a God who never gives up on life and love.
Because of that, we can wish you Happy Easter.
Best Wishes,
Fr. Michael Kelly SJ

Bishops' help sought for development drive
- Albertus V. Rehi, Kupang
- Indonesia
- July 20, 2012
The program, called the Master Plan for the Acceleration of Indonesia's Economic Development (MP3EI), began in May last year and is aimed at achieving high, balanced, fair and sustainable economic growth across the country.
"In order to make the program a success, the government, of course, cannot work alone. We need support and must build
cooperation with all prominent leaders in this region, including bishops," Fransiskus Lebu Raya said yesterday during a meeting with the bishops in Kupang, the provincial capital.
According to Raya, cooperation between local government and the diocesan commissions for socio-economic development should be tightened.
"This includes organizing groups of poor and marginalized people," he said.

Minor injury for Morse
Apr 8, 2010, 3:21 AM EDT
Mike Morse's season debut in right field proved a disappointment on several levels.
Not only did Morse struggle at the plate, going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts, but he also had to leave the game in the eighth inning after his left calf muscle cramped.
Morse said he hurt himself while tracking down Raul Ibanez's seventh-inning sacrifice fly. He stayed in the game and attempted to retake the field in the eighth but quickly realized he couldn't do it.
"It was actually when I broke to catch the ball," he said. "It just cramped up on me real bad. But I mean, it's feeling a lot better now."
Manager Jim Riggleman said Morse will likely miss a day or two. He probably wouldn't have started tomorrow's game anyway, with right-hander Kyle Kendrick on the mound for the Phillies.
Cristian Guzman replaced Morse in right field tonight and looked comfortable catching the first fly ball hit his way. Guzman, who hadRead more »

I am starting to like Guzman more and more. I don't know if he is just trying to improve his trade-deadline value (future contract), or what;…..but he is sure taking his demotion much better than I thought he would.

Can Guzman close too?

So the Nats clearly dont love Harris, Morse, or Tavares (who can blame them) in RF.Mark, why dont they just give Guzman 1-2 weeks of several hours a day work in RF and give him the job?

Vista pushes for summer opening of Melrose
At the time, Vista feared that Faraday would open first, increasing traffic on Melrose without the benefit of an escape valve to the south, its officials have said. Instead, Melrose looks to completed by midsummer, while work on Faraday is expected to take until 2007.
In his April 5 letter to Lewis, obtained by the North County Times via a public records request, Vance said the settlement could be read in different ways.
"Many have assumed that this provision means that both roads must be opened simultaneously," he wrote. "Although that is not what it actually says."
Vista City Attorney Darold Pieper echoed that assessment Friday: "The agreement does not necessarily indicate that the roads have to open simultaneously."
Pieper declined to comment on specific negotiations with Carlsbad, but remained hopeful that an agreement will be reached. "I don't understand them to have closed the door," he said.
Carlsbad officials have presented a different interpretation of the settlement.
"It's our position that the settlement says we have to open the roads concurrently," said Denise Vedder, Carlsbad's communications manager, on Friday. "And, we would have to follow the proper process in order to change that, which could involve going back in front of a judge to amend the settlement."
She later added: "As far as I know, no amendment has been made, nor is the council officially considering anything right now."
Carlsbad City Attorney Ronald Ball was not available for comment.

Hot chocolate and big dogs!
About moi: Once, I got bitten by a monkey and then he ran away. I was quite sad since he took my only toothbrush with him. On the way back to the hotel, I slipped on some expired yogurt and fell into the river. I must have hit my head on a rock or something because when I woke up, I had drifted downriver into the nearby country. Strangely, all that came to mind was that I had parked my hang glider at meter and was going to get ticketed. All I could do was call my mom and tell her that I wanted to move back into my old room. She said she was watching a movie and that she would call me back later. That is the last conversation we ever had. As strange as that is, that intro describes me quite well... I'm random. I was born and raised in Europe, traveled kinda everywhere and somehow ended up in this cozy town. I love Nutella, video games, getting packages in the mail, watching films, books, dogs, art, not working out and many other things. I don't like long walks on the beach because I don't work out and usually pass out in the sand. I also don't like doing dishes... I have to travel to Asia from time to time to work and I took a liking to the Chinese language. I am slowly learning though I sound like a 4 year old when I speak it. I love tech, from phones to computers to weird and creative machinery. I am always intrigued by any kind of systems and how they work. About toi: I'm looking for a cool girl to spend time with and get to know. I'd like to find a person who understands my culture and is able to speak French or Chinese but I know that might be difficult. What I'm really looking for is to connect with someone on many levels (friend or lover), something that has proven to be quite difficult. Perhaps is it because I'm stuck in the middle of two cultures.

How to change the shape of JFrame in different shape , and also make it interface look alike Mac Windows Frame
You can make the interface of a Java Swing application look "native" to the operating system it's running on by additing the following lines to either your main method, the init method (if it's an Applet) or to the constructor of your top-level JFrame:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel() can throw five different types of exception, documented here (assuming that you're using Java 6). How to handle these exceptions is completely up to you - if you ignore them (as in my example, catching all Exceptions and then doing nothing) then your application will use the default Java look and feel. Maybe this isn't a bad thing? Only you can decide.
To make a shaped Window you can use the class com.sun.awt.AWTUtilities. It has a Method called `setWindowShape, it takes two parameters, a shape and and a JFrame. But the class is usually restricted, so it's not a really good solution to use it. I think in the next java edition it will be added as a default class.
You might look at this article about custom shaped windows.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
03 Jan 2013 17:37 GMT | Sport, Cricket, New Zealand, South Africa
An unbeaten 69 from Dean Brownlie helped New Zealand reach 169 for four in their second innings on day two of the first Test against South Africa on Thursday.
The Proteas, who dismissed the touring side for just 45 on day one, declared their first innings on 347 for eight shortly after lunch with a lead of 302 and they were still 133 runs ahead at the close.
But New Zealand, largely through Brownlie and captain Brendon McCullum who made 51, offered much stronger resistance second time round, responding well to widespread condemnation of their woeful performance on Wednesday.
New Zealand also bowled better in the morning session and made the ideal start when Trent Boult forced Alviro Petersen to play on after adding just three runs to his overnight score of 103.

Early morning rain had cleared two hours before the start of play, but the ominous grey skies remained for much of the morning and AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis had to survive an awkward period in which the pitch offered the seamers lateral movement.
The disciplined bowling soon accounted for Du Plessis, whose Test average of 146.50 after two matches took a hit when Chris Martin had him caught at gully for 15 with the score on 281.
Dean Elgar received an ironic ovation from the home crowd when he made his first run in Test cricket at the third time of asking and De Villiers brought up his 30th Test fifty with consecutive boundaries off Boult.
Boult dismissed Elgar just before lunch when he edged a catch to wicketkeeper BJ Watling for 21.Graeme Smith declared the South African innings shortly after the interval and the Black Caps' got off to the worst possible start when opener Martin Guptill clipped a leg-side delivery from Dale Steyn straight to mid-wicket in the first over.
McCullum and Kane Williamson dug in to prevent the touring side from collapsing but Williamson should have been out in the eighth over as umpire Ian Gould turned down a massive lbw appeal from Vernon Philander who took five wickets in the first innings.
Smith's failure to call for the review proved costly as replays showed that the decision would have been reversed.
Two overs later Philander did call for a review for a caught behind, but replays were inconclusive and Williamson survived again.
Williamson's gritty innings ended in the penultimate over before tea as Jacques Kallis had him caught at second slip for 15 with the score on 29.
McCullum was next to get a reprieve as Kallis failed to hold on to a difficult chance at second slip.
Lucrative partnership
The partnership with Brownlie continued at high pace and the game appeared to be getting away from South Africa as McCullum reached his half-century.
But the decision to replace Philander with spinner Robin Peterson proved a fruitful one as he trapped McCullum lbw in his second over.
McCullum opted for a review, but the decision stood to leave the visitors at 118 for three following an 89-run stand off just 81 deliveries.
Losing his partner slowed Brownlie but he went on to reach his fourth Test fifty off 44 balls.
Kallis broke a partnership of 37 between Brownlie and Daniel Flynn when the left-handed Flynn was well caught by wicketkeeper De Villiers for 14 off an inside edge.
Brownlie survived another review for a caught behind off Steyn and he and Watling negotiated the remaining overs of the day and will resume on scores of 69 and 10 not out respectively.

All lenses distort. Most have some degree of barrel distortion as well as pin cushioning. They often also have other issues such as chromatic aberration and vignetting. Modern day lenses keep these issues well controlled but can never eliminate them entirely. For this reason we have lens correction software. Until recently this software often took the form of standalone apps or plugin for Photoshop. Nowadays, however, most higher end software will have lens correction built in. Today we are going to take a look at one of the most powerful of the built-in tools, Lightroom's Lens Corrections.

7 Most Challenging Shooting Scenarios and How to Make the Best of Them
We photographers love a challenge. Whether it is contorting ourselves into strange positions to get a macro shot, or trying to soothe a screaming baby to get a shot for a proud new mum, we will nearly always find a way through. Today we are going to take a look at seven of the most challenging photographic scenarios and hopefully supply some times to help you keep calm and carry on shooting.
Create Perfect Portraits in Lightroom Using These 6 Classic Retouch Techniques
With portraiture, what you see is not always what you want to get. Even the very best portrait with the perfect model will often need some form of post-production to get it to pop. Today we are going to look at six classic post production techniques to get the most out of your portraits. These techniques are generally similar in Lightroom and Photoshop but in this article we shall concentrate on Lightroom. When using Photoshop it is best to use an adjustment layer or a duplicate layer to preserve the original.
3 Lightroom Tweaks to Get Your Landscape Photographs to Sing
Although originally developed as a image management tool, Adobe's Lightroom has evolved into a powerful post production application. For many photographers, Lightroom provides all the tools required to make their images pop without ever having to resort to Photoshop. Lightroom's tools are particularly suited to landscape and urban photographers who want to squeeze every last drop of quality from their images. Today we are going to look at three powerful tweaks that will make your outdoor images sing.
A Review of the Fuji XF 14mm 2.8
Unlike the world of the DSLR, the mirrorless ecosystem is not awash with what could be regarded as ultra wide angle lenses. One that does stand out is the Fuji XF 14mm f2.8. It was released originally as a companion to the Fuji X-Pro1 but will fit any of Fuji's current interchangeable lens models including the XT1. These cameras use an APS-C sensor which means when we add in the crop factor, the 14mm gives an equivalent filed of view of 21mm. Of course, the major advantage of being designed for an APS-C sensor is that the size can remain more compact than an equivalent full frame version. Let's see how this lens performs.
How to Motivate Yourself to Carry Your Tripod Along More Often
Cumbersome, heavy and unnecessary are words that often spring to mind when talking about tripods. All of these words are quite accurate and good excuses not to take a tripod with you. The fact is though, in many cases you can get much better image quality if your camera is tripod-mounted as opposed to handheld. Maybe the light has faded fast, you may have seen an amazing flower, perfect for a tripod locked macro or perhaps that scene in front of you is begging for a deep depth of field. These are all shots you may lose if you don't have a tripod with you. Today, rather than espouse the benefits of tripods, we are going to look at ways of motivating yourself to take one more often.
The Stock Shoot Diaries: Ghent and Bruges
This post follows on from my earlier article on my stock shoot in London. My next destination was Belgium and, in particular, Ghent and Bruges. Although well covered by stock photography, I still felt that it would be possible to get some marketable images from these locations, especially from Ghent, my first destination. Read on to know how my experience was, shooting stock photographs in these two lovely cities.
The Stock Shoot Diaries: London
London in August, what could possibly go wrong? The weather, of course. I had planned a two week break to visit family and to shoot stock in my birth city, something I had never really done before. Generally, London in late August the weather is fairly benign and reliable, late August 2014 proved to be not quite so co-operative.
Going Deep: 7 Features Hidden Inside Your Camera's Menu System That You Should Know
For a photographer brought up on steam powered film cameras, modern day DSLRs seem like science fiction to me. Fifteen years ago, camera functions were limited by the number dials, buttons and levers that could be built into the body. The modern digital camera discards that limitation by the inclusion of a menu system that add a huge range of enhancing features to it. Today we are going to take a brief look at some of the goodies that may be buried deep inside your cameras interface.
Moving Beyond Auto Mode: Which Exposure Mode Should You Choose?
A newcomer to photography is often daunted by the different exposure modes a camera may offer. In fact, there are only four, real exposure modes and these are often represented by the word PASM. PASM stands for Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual and can by found (not always in that order) on the exposure mode dial on top of your camera. Today, rather than give you an in-depth break down of how each mode works, we are going to give you a brief, layman explanation of each mode and, more importantly, when to use it.

Dishwasher Plumbing Help!
In our new kitchen we have a dishwasher that is not adjacent to the kitchen sink. So our contractor ran a new feed and a new dedicated drainpipe to the dishwasher. the dishwasher drainpipe eventually connects to the vertical drain stack further downstream in the lower level. At first everything appeared to be fine. Until I decided to fill up the kitchen sink about halfway with water and then pulled the plug. After a few second I heard water splashing downstairs, the water spewing out of the top of the open drain pipe where the dishwasher drains into. How can this be fixed? Our contractor suggests there is a clog further down the line which is making the water follow the "path of least resistance". I think something else is at play here. (Like maybe the horizontal drainpipe for the dishwasher is too low?) Here is my attempt at a diagram. The relative heights of the pipes may not be accurate. In actuality I think the pipe where the arrow is pointing is lower.

|Breaking the Code 2014-15 Season To Sleep and Dream Wins Critics Circle Award!
|Breaking the Code
Breaking the Code
March 4 - 22, 2015
A gripping biographical drama about homosexual scientist Alan Turing, the eccentric genius who fought on two fronts.
Turing played a major role in winning the World War II, and he also battled with British morality. He broke the complex German code called Enigma, enabling allied forces to foresee Nazi u-boat maneuvers.
Since his work was classified top secret for years after the war, no one knew how much was owed to him when he was put on trial for breaking another code - the taboo against homosexuality.
Turing, who was also the first to conceive of and basically invent the computer, the machine that forever altered our modern world, was convicted of the criminal act of homosexuality and sentenced to undergo hormone treatments which left him physically and mentally debilitated.
He died a suicide, forgotten and alone.
This play is about who he was, what happened to him and why.
