Roads kill more than Bali bombs
- From: The Daily Telegraph
- November 14, 2006
IN the space of four bloody months in 2006, more people died on NSW roads than were killed in the 2002 Bali bombing.
In total, 207 people perished in car accidents - leaving 72 families without one or both parents.
The death toll was up 34 per cent on the same period the previous year - a grim statistic blasted as "unacceptable'' by community leaders.
On a Saturday night, a woman in her 20s was killed when her small Mitsubishi collided head-on with a 4WD in Dural in Sydney's northwest.
Most fatalities happened on country roads and the proportion of those deaths outside cities and regional centres has increased.
A joint RTA and police taskforce was told to report to Roads Minister Eric Roozendaal on the issue, and it later recommend a raft of tougher penalties for repeat offenders.
Among the measures proposed was for problem drivers to have their vehicles fitted with speed limiters and monitored by GPS tracking technology.
NRMA president Alan Evans, who worked with the taskforce, said the number of tragedies had to be reduced.
"It is not acceptable to have a 34 per cent increase in fatalities,'' he said.
"This is yet more proof that roads like the Pacific Highway need more funding to improve safety -- no one should die for one mistake.''
The Daily Telegraph investigation learned at least 72 families lost at least one parent in the 167 fatal crashes on NSW roads in 2005.
The state's senior traffic policeman, Chief Superintendent John Hartley, put the increase down to a larger number of multiple death accidents.
"There have been crashes where three to four people have died, which pushes up the numbers,'' he said.
While he said fixing the roads would help solve the problem, most crashes were caused by driver error.
"Roads are a long term fix but driver behaviour is the key problem,'' Supt Hartley said.
The funeral that marked the beginning of a life without parents for five children one Friday reminded him of the grief behind every crash.
"You tend to remember the ones where children are affected ... it has a deeper impact on you because it's a sickening message you have to deliver to someone so young,'' he said.
That Sunday, 19-year-old Kate Thomas escaped the mangled wreck of her parents' car but her mother and father Ann, 42, and Patrick, 44, were killed in the head-on crash at Warnervale, leaving five children orphaned - Kate and her brothers Hamish 20, Luke, 17, and 13-year-old twins Patrick and Lachlan.
Foster Care Association NSW president Mary-Jane Beach said children who lost parents in crashes are often the hardest to assimilate into other families.
"One night they go to bed in their own home, in 24 hours, they are in a new bed and surroundings,'' Ms Beach said.
"It's usually very sudden with no preparation, they are removed from everything they know.
"It scars them for life, the impact is great but how destructive is mitigated by adequate support.''
For Judy Kelly, the death of her parents, Ray and Dot, still haunts her - 50 years after they were killed.
"We were told they had gone away, we were not told they were dead,'' Ms Kelly said, who was nine when her parents died on November 27, 1956.
"We couldn't comprehend their death and for years I kept thinking they would turn up one day.
"It was in an era where children were seen and not heard ... so I guess the people looking after us didn't think it was important.''
Ms Kelly said it was vitally important children are told what has happened.

Recurring Role
First time Terra is mentioned since her "death" in "Aftershock, Part 2."
When the Titans put together the second party for Raven, it showed the Titans standing in front of her, and Beast Boy didn't have a party hat on, but when he said surprise, a hat was on his head.
When Raven's birthmarks appear in this episode, almost her entire suit, namely the part covering her belly and back, is diminshed. In "The Prophecy" and "The End (1)," it just forms on top of her unexposed limbs.
In the scene where Slade burns a mark onto Raven's left wrist, it's the "S" mark on Slades forehead, or "the mark of Scath." But in the scene where Raven gets Robin out of the factory and onto a city street, when the mark disappears, it's a different marking.
When we see Robin turned to stone, he's not wearing his mask and he seems to have bug-eyes.
When Slade rips Raven's cloak off, it takes off the suit on her back as well, and the part of her leotard on top of her shoulders. However, when the rest of her leotard vanishes, the remaining bits are over her shoulders and across her back, even though those parts were ripped off.
When Slade rose out of the ground, he is underwater, and the Tower is between him and the city. He should have been buried under the ground somewhere in the city, not in the ocean. Facts from other episodes support this. In "Titan Rising," the sun is setting across the sea behind the Tower, meaning that is west. In "Aftershock (2)," Terra runs from the Titans, and Cyborg says she's heading east, meaning that would be away from the Tower and the ocean, into the city, heading for Slade's lair, where they both "died."
After the first time that Slade burns away part of Raven's suit, it's back in the next scene, then it goes back to being gone.
Using a freeze disk, Robin manages to completely freeze a pillar of fire. How is that possible?
In the beginning, when Raven is walking around in the Titans' Tower, her eyes are a very bright purple color.
Cyborg said it was an 8 layer cake, but it's only 7 when he takes the lid off.
Although Slade was buried under molten lava and soot, he comes out perfectly clean.
In the battle scene with Dr. Light, Cyborg's Sonic Cannon is considerably small.
Cyborg suggests Mad Mod as one of the possible intruders. There's no way Mad Mod should have even been thought of as one of the possibilities, because of his infirmities.
Near the end, after Raven saw what she was destined to do, a second after she snapped out of it, her skin is peach instead of its normal gray color. The next scene, it's back to normal.
Robin: You know, Doctor Light, for a guy obsessed with illumination, you're not very bright.
Raven: The next time you're looking to steal something, try to pick a target we can't see from our living room.
(Camera closes up behind her, showing the Titan Tower)
Doctor Light: Oh...well...um...
Starfire: (With great joy) And I have assembled for you a traditional Tamaranian Traknar: the Crown of Meat! (shows the Traknar to Raven, who looks away disdainfully)
Beast Boy: You may not like your birthday, but we're all glad you were born.
Raven: We're going to need ice cream.
Raven: Look, I really appreciate what you're trying to do here, but I'm not interested.
Starfire: But their will be music, and the iced cream, and a strange game involving pins and the behind of a donkey.
Slade: You might be able to stop time, birthday girl... but you can't stop me.
Raven: I just want this day to be over.
Slade: I think we both know this day is far from over. Hello, birthday girl.
Slade: (To Raven) It's just you and me, kid.
Robin: At least it's all over.
Raven: No... (Looks at the marks on her hands) This is only the beginning.
Cyborg: (To Raven, sing-song voice) We got a piñata shaped like Beast Boy; you know you wanna smack it.
Slade: The first task is complete... master. The message has been sent. The inscriptions are in place, she knows what she must do. The Prophecy will be fulfilled.
Trigon: (Voice) Then the world of mortals shall be ended.
Slade: Skies will burn, flesh will turn to stone, the sun will set on your world, never to rise again.
Raven: (To Robin) I tried not to let you get dragged into this, any of you, but you're in. I might as well tell you. This is my birthday, the day of my birth...
Slade: Take my word for it, Robin, you shouldn't play with fire.
(Cyborg rips a huge metal pillar off the wall and swings it at Slade; Slade simply burns through it)
Cyborg: Whoa!
Slade: "Whoa"? That's it? No clever comment? I was looking forward to that.
Cyborg: It's almost midnight. TIME FOR DONUTS!!!
Slade: Ever have one of those days where you just feel happy to be alive?
Cyborg: Since when can Slade do THAT?
Robin: What is happening?
Raven: It's my birthday.
Dr. Light: No one defeats Dr. Light!
Raven: (Appearing behind him) Remember me?
Dr. Light: (Looking mortified) I'd like to go to jail now, please.
Raven: (Impatiently, tapping her leg) 6 PM, only six more hours to go...
Titans: (As Raven walks in) SURPRISE!!!
Raven: Ahhh!! (Jumps back, horrorstruck)
Cyborg: Raven... ?
Raven: (To Robin, about her birthday) There is nothing to celebrate.
Robin: (To Raven) We have a bond? Remember? You've been inside my mind.
Slade: (Rising out of the stone in underground) The day has begun.
Robin: Slade! You shouldn't have come back. I'm still ready for you.
Slade: That's touching, Robin, but I didn't come back for you.
Beast Boy: (To Dr. Light) Nice pajamas, do they glow in the dark?
Slade: But honestly, did you think you could just blow out the candles and wish it all away? Today is the day it begins. You've known this all your life. It is going to happen. And no matter what you wish... no matter where you go... no matter how you squirm... there is nothing you can do to stop it.
Slade: I have to say, Raven, when I found out the truth I was very impressed. All this time, I had no idea the power lurking inside you. The glorious destiny that awaits. It's always the quiet ones, isn't it?
Slade: It's been a long time, hasn't it Titans? A Month? A Year? A Millennium? Far too long for my taste, anyway.
Starfire: You do not wish to partake in the nuts of dough? It is like eating tiny sweet wheels!
Beast Boy: (To Slade) Terra took you down, WAY down!
Slade: (To Raven) We'll be in touch.
(Slade throws Raven off a building)
Slade: Oh, and happy birthday.
Slade constantly says "Tick-Tock, Raven." The first time we hear this is when the illusion of Slade is in the clearing in "Haunted" when he says "Tick-Tock, Robin. This is going to be easier than I thought."
The second episode that refers to "Aftershock (2)." The first is "Haunted," but, in this episode, it includes Terra.
Slade comes back from the dead, this time it isn't an illusion. Though it is revealed later that he never really died. So it was him that triggered the mask in "Haunted."
The fight scene at the church seemed a little ironic. A church is supposed to be a safe haven. But in this episode, the church is portrayed the most dangerous place to be.
Raven can turn into a raven and fly through flames.
This appears to be the only episode where Raven's clothes on her arms, back, and her belly are ripped to expose her markings; in later episodes, the markings just appear on her open limbs and on her clothes with anything exposing.
YTV airdate: May 3, 2005.
In another twist of fate, Slade is working for someone that he helped stop in the comics (Trigon, through Brother Blood), just like the HIVE in "Final Exam."
This episode revolves around Raven's past and how she had to deal with her future. Trigon used Slade to get to Raven, giving him pyrokineticy. (The ability to create and manipulate fire.)
Slade's new powers include: controlling fire, flying, putting his bones back in place, super-strength (he can smash through cars now), and controlling electricity.
Dr. Light's costume strangely resembles the Batman Beyond villain, Shriek, from the episodes "Shriek," "Babel," and "Where's Terry?."
Raven uses her soul-self more than one time in this episode.
In the future premonition where Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, and Cyborg are turned to stone, Robin isn't wearing his mask. You can see his eyes.
This is the first time we see shape in the right side of Slade's mask. When he speaks with Trigon at the end of the episode, the light casts shadows on his face, and we can see depressions where his right eye would be.
The second time someone removes Raven's cloak other than herself, except this time it wasn't just to demonstrate a Jedi mind-trick.
When Raven freezes time, we actually get to take our first good look at Beast Boy in mid-change as he is frozen in mid-change between a human and a tiger.
Raven's mom actually tried to summon Satan into the world. When she did, Trigon appeared resulting in the Satan/Trigon connection in this episode.
When Raven was born, the priests of Azarath looked into Raven's future and learned she was destined to end the world.
This is the first time a Titan's birthday has been mentioned.
Someone else triggered Slade's mask in "Haunted," as he was just resurrected in this episode.
Each season has been about a Titan's connection to their greatest enemy.
Robin - Slade
Beast Boy - Terra
Cyborg - Brother Blood
Raven - Trigon
Slade mentions "The Prophecy," which is an upcoming episode.
It seems that Slade is actually working for a greater power, assumed to be Trigon.
Trigon makes his first "true" appearance, although he has horns in Raven's vision.
Slade speaks a name of the Titans other than his apprentices. It is, of course, Raven.
Raven goes through a solid object again. This is the third time she has done this.
Slade's regenerative powers make their debut, although they seem to be more like those of Wolverine of the X-Men than the re-animation he has in the comics..
Raven has the ability to stop time.
Cyborg also makes reference to some villains: Killer Moth, Gizmo, and Mad Mod.
Beast Boy mentions to Slade that Terra defeated him from the episode"Aftershock (2)." But Terra will not make an official appearance until the series finale, "Things Change."
Raven and Robin still share a bond from when Raven entered his head in "Haunted."
Dr. Light wields a laser whip which looks very similar to the one the Dee Dees used in the Justice League Unlimited episode "The Once and Future Thing: Time, Warped (2)."
Dr. Light got a new suit, but he remembers Raven, obviously.
The factory where Mad Mod captured the Titans in "Mad Mod" makes an appearance.
Dr. Light returns in person in this episode.
Raven's hair is longer for a portion of this episode.
The sign that Slade marks Raven with is the same sign that Trigon uses when he burns Raven's room in her vision.
In Raven's vision, you can see the birds that appeared in "Nevermore."
Villain(s): Dr. Light, Slade, & Trigon.
Slade has a red 'S' on his mask. Raven has it, as well.
It's Raven's birthday in this episode.
Raven episode.
Slade is after Raven this time, not Robin.
So far, Dr. Light has appeared at the beginning of every episode that involved Trigon in some way.
Slade's mystic abilities, first seen in "Forces of Nature," have increased exponentially.
The dog that the man is walking when Raven starts and stops time is the same dog that Beast Boy competed with for attention in "Every Dog Has His Day."
Apparently, Slade now has the power to create and control fire. This is probably a side-effect from falling into the lava in "Aftershock (2)."
Episode: The Battle in the Church
The scene, in which Raven and Robin hide in a church, is very similar to the finale of the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie End of Days. In that movie, the main characters go to a holy place, 'cause the Satan is after the woman named York (just as Trigon and Slade is after Raven, who is his child [just as Raven is Trigon's daughter]). And the fighting sequence is very similar, too.
Robin: Burt Ward Homage
Robin planting his fist in his hand at the end of the episode is a homage to Burt Ward's signature gesture when he portrayed Robin in the 1960's Batman TV show.
Trigon & Slade: Conversations
The two scenes where Trigon and Slade discuss about Raven is a clear reference to the scene between Sardo Numspa and Satan in the 1986 movie, The Golden Child.
Robin & Slade: (Fight in the gear room)
This is also possibly a reference to The Castle of Cagliostro, in which there is also a very similar fight scene featuring fighting in a clock tower. The Great Mouse Detective took inspiration from this movie.
Raven: Can't this go any faster?
When Raven's waiting for the time to pass, it's just like Beezel did when he was waiting for time to pass in The Fantastic Adventures of Unico.
Raven: 6 PM... just 6 more hours until it's over... 6 more...
In the Bible, 666 is the mark of the beast, and the men who follow the beast of the earth will bear this mark to display their allegiance to the beast. The beast is not Satan, it's man's sins. However, it is commonly associated with demons. So, when Raven mentions the number 6 three times in a row, she is saying 666, adding to the demonic imagery of the show.
Episode: Demonic Imagery
There were many references to demons and Hell in this episode. The most obvious were the numerous instances of hell fire, and the fact that Trigon was red and had antlers, much like Satan is red and has horns. It's also possible that when Slade rose up, he was rising from Hell (or literally lava). The church that Raven and Robin ran into was there to set off the demonic imagery, and perhaps symbolize brief safety from demons.
Slade: Skies will burn, flesh will turn to stone, the sun will set on your world, never to rise again.
It is believed by some religons that when the second coming of Christ (the end of the world) happens, the world would have suffered war, skies would burn, bodies of the dead would be everywhere and Jesus will come down on a chariot of fire. This is actually sort of similar to what Slade said about the end of the world.
The Prophecy: Hellboy
A few parts in this episode bare reference to the movie, Hellboy. When Slade grips Raven's arms and shows her what she is destined to cause, she sees a glimpse of the future. It is a fiery, barren wasteland, and Trigon is looming over it, his horns much longer than before. He turns to face the camera, and then it's pretty much over. Rasputin does the same thing when he shows Broom what Hellboy is destined to do. Also, Hellboy's horns grow to their full length when Rasputin tells him what he was created to do, and Raven's hair grows longer as well. They both cut/break them in the end, though. Also, both Raven and Hellboy come from other dimensions, both bearing marks of Satan (in a way...). It should also be noted that Ron Perlman, Slade's voice actor, played Hellboy in the movie.
Raven: Confession
When Raven brings Robin into the church, she admits she has feared the day of her birth, and that she's kept it a secret, hoping it will just go away. People go to churches to confess their sins or regrets, much as Raven did.

Toronto's 17-piece period-instrument ensemble, Tafelmusik, comes to Meany Hall on Thursday with an elaborately staged multimedia program, "House of Dreams." The show is billed as a "virtual visit" to five houses of the 17th and 18th centuries, where fine art and fine music went hand in hand.
The program includes pieces by Handel, Bach, Vivaldi, Sweelinck, Purcell, Marais and Telemann.
The houses are Handel's London home from 1723-1759 (the composer, it turns out, was an avid art collector); Venice's Palazzo Smith Mangilli-Valmarana (former residence of British Consul Joseph Smith — a patron of Canaletto); Delft's Het Gulden ABC, a cafe that once was home to a bookbinder who had 21 Vermeers; Paris' Palais-Royal, where the Duc d'Orléans and his successors displayed 500 paintings, including works by Titian and Caravaggio; and the Georg Heinrich Bose House in Leipzig, where Bach and his family — Bose's next-door neighbors — very likely made music and where canvases by Rembrandt, Rubens and others hung.
"House of Dreams," copresented by the Early Music Guild and the UW World Series, is the brainchild of Tafelmusik double-bassist Alison Mackay, whose aim was to conjure a "museum of our mind's eye."

"No imagined image or digitized projection can rival the experience of being in the same room with an original painting by Vermeer or Chardin," Mackay writes. "But we lovers of baroque music on original instruments can be grateful for the technology that allows us to step back into a time when … visitors could spend an hour or two in a room full of delights for the ear and the eye."
7:30 p.m. Thursday, Meany Hall, University of Washington, Seattle; $20-$41 (206-543-4880 or www.uwworldseries.org).

So you do it one day at a time until you can't...and on that day you know. If that day never comes the doubt and questions fade and eventually become replaced with strength and conviction.
T/J - W & I got our degrees on 6/6/66. We might have gotten engaged on 6/6, too, but I think it was actually 6/7/67. (Yikes! This is the first time I noticed the numbers.) End T/J

Send good mojo my way, as MIL comes tomorrow for the yearly visit. Deep breathing exercises are already beginning. She knows nothing of what has been going on, and I don't want her to know, so while she is here for two weeks, things can be a bit weird.

What happened in Asia is a disaster, we all recon that, but today it got personal for me. I just received an e-mail from my surf-teacher, a great guy from South Africa, who was there at the time of the tsunamis. He wrote to me that his girlfriend, who I know too, got cought up in the waves. They found her body a few days ago.
Me, Phil (the surfteacher) and Anne (his girlfriend) spent alot of time on my last holiday, we were usually the last ones to go to bed, telling stories at the campfire. Sometimes we even skipped sleeping and walked to the beach at 5 in the morning, to surf the waves without a whole crows getting in your way
This news struck me pretty hard, this girl was a legend, and I will honestly miss her.
Frankly I dont know the reason I'm writing this, but just remember to donate money to the aid-organisations. The tradegy can't be undone, but the land can be rebuilt, and our money can prevent a whole lot of other people from dying too. Be generous.

By Nicholas Wright, CEO at AppInstruct
There are many different reasons to create an app: your existing business may have a marketing or functional need, you may have an idea that could become a startup company, or you just have a great idea for something small that could earn some passive income.
Whatever your motivation, all apps follow the same process. In previous posts, I've addressed the most common questions people have when starting out:
- Should you hire someone or learn how to code on your own?
- How much should it cost to hire an app developer?
- How can you find and hire the right developer for your project?
- Choosing the best mobile app development technology
In this post, I'll highlight the factors you need to consider when deciding which native mobile platform you should make an app for, looking specifically at the two leading platforms: Apple's iOS and Google's Android.
Location, location, location
The first thing to decide is which geographical market you wish to target with your app. The popularity of the two platforms varies from one country or region to the next.
As one example, Apple retains a huge lead over Android devices in the United States, but the reverse is true of Android devices in South Korea and throughout much of Asia.
Understanding Apple users versus Android users
The next thing to consider is the difference in user demographics between both platforms.
There's no question that there are now more people using Android devices around the world. However, Apple users spend much more money in the App Store than Android users spend in Google Play.
There are a number of reasons for this, but central to it is the fact that Apple sells only premium products; Android can be found on a huge range of devices, some of which are very moderately priced.
The result is that the average Apple user tends to have more disposable income, and be more engaged with the technology, than the average Android user.
This being said, Android tablets sell at a fraction of the cost of comparable Apple products, so many parents have begun buying them for their kids. If you're releasing an app for use by children, Apple may no longer be your market.
Devices at the top end of the Android market – like the Samsung Galaxy S4 and S5, Google Nexus 5 and Moto X – have hardware that is actually superior to Apple's, which is starting to tempt Apple "fan boys" and early adopters across to the rival platform.
Check for a competitive advantage
There may also be a competitive opportunity or advantage in building an app for one platform over another.
Melbourne, Australia-based indie development company Shifty Jelly saw such an opportunity two years ago, when they built a podcasting app for Android.
At the time, the market for equivalent apps on Apple had reached such a stage of maturity that Apple itself had produced its own version: Podcasts. Shifty Jelly noticed that no such apps existed on Google Play — so they built one. Their app launched successfully and proved a profitable venture for the team.
Balancing requirements for software and hardware
As well as strategic business factors, there are also practical differences in building an app for either platform.
As I've discussed previously, the two native mobile platforms use different coding languages – Objective C and Java – so code cannot be shared between them. Objective C, used for iOS, is actually harder for developers to master.
This being said, there are a couple of very important factors that actually make it easier to build an Apple app than one for Android.
The first is operating system fragmentation. Amazingly, although it's only been out for six months, 82 percent of all Apple device users are using the latest version of its operating system (iOS7), with 15 percent still using iOS6.
Contrast that with the adoption numbers for Android's latest operating system, KitKat. Released about a month after iOS7, it has an adoption rate of about 1.8 percent. Indeed, there are four different versions of Android, each of which accounts for more than 15 percent of the total Android market.
This fragmentation is a challenge for developers because an app will behave differently in each version. This can be mitigated by releasing the app only on certain versions of the operating system. If you were to solely target the Jelly Bean version of Android, for example, you would reach 60.7 percent of the Android market.
The development challenge is not limited to the operating system; fragmentation of hardware is also a contrasting and significant factor.
An app may behave differently based on the hardware running it. Apple produces a very small number of different devices, which are further simplified as the hardware is often the same among them; except for size, for example, an iPad Air and iPad Mini Retina are extremely similar.
Android is open sourced to a variety of different hardware producers like Samsung, Motorola, HTC and Google. Each not only produces devices in different shapes and sizes, they also all use different hardware from different suppliers.
There's a multiplier effect that's created an ecosystem of hundreds of devices. Your app may behave differently on each, so do you need to test for all? The cost of buying all the hardware to do so puts it beyond any independent developer, so compromises must be made.
This is a high-level summary of some of the aspects you should consider when deciding whether to build for iOS or Android. To learn more about the app making process, AppInstruct's online course provides all the business and technical elements you need to learn to understand how to make an app.
In my next post, I'll explore the cloud platforms you can utilize to efficiently build and prove your app idea.
