Thank you so much for joining me for Production Rendering Techniques in CINEMA 4D. I really enjoyed making this course, and I hope it's going to help you out as you start making more images in CINEMA 4D. If you're looking for things to do after finishing this course, might I recommend Design in Motion by Rob Garrott. It's a really fantastic introduction to the world of motion graphics, and each and every week he talks about a different part of motion graphics, and many times he's using CINEMA 4D. What I love about this course is that he's often talking about concepts instead of just the technical aspects.
Most advanced 3D programs these days have fairly similar feature sets. Features might have different names, but they have similar functionalities. So you might, for example, take a course in Photorealistic Lighting with Maya, or if you're feeling comfortable enough to change 3D programs, you're probably feeling good enough to even leave your computer, and for that I recommend a course on photography. Ben Long's Foundations of Photography Exposure is a wonderful introduction to the technical aspects of using a camera. And many of the settings that you've seen in CINEMA 4D's physical camera will be mirrored in his course and might perhaps make better sense after you watch it.
But really, the most important part of working in 3D is not the technical, it's about the end result. Can you make an image that looks good? And for that I recommend just a plain photography course. Douglas Kirkland's on Photography: Studio Portraiture is a really wonderful introduction to a couple methodologies for how to light a portrait. Or you might even go and take a look at Shooting with Wireless Flash by Jim Sugar. This course and courses like this will help you to figure out where to place your lights in scenes, and when you see how a person lights a product in the real world, you'll be better able to get photorealistic results in your 3D package.
Thank you so much for taking the time to follow this course, and best of luck with your future projects.

http://yourbirthcoach.com Video of my second home birth. It was about 6 hours of labor from early beginnings to birth. This video starts when things start to feel "pushy." Up until this point I was silent during my contractions. You can watch my labor here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dP1N6wB9kU The sounds women make in labor may make it seem as if it is painful, but I can assure you pain was not part of this birth experience. The sounds of pushing help when using all your effort, just like with intense exercise (tennis players hitting the ball). With this birth it really just felt like I needed to have a BM. I didn't want any noise around me or anyone talking. My birth team was great because they really just left me to do my work without disturbance. I did appreciate my midwife saying to go slow when I feel the burn. She said it at the exact right time and that definately helped make getting the head out so easy and gentle. It is one of the great things about midwifery care, they observe you so carefully that they know just where you are and what you need. Our son was born in our home in the presence of my husband, my daughter (2 1/2 at the time), my mom, 2 friends (mom and daughter), and 2 midwives. Please leave you questions and comments. http://yourbirthcoach.com

Ratings for Dr. Charles Agbi
Dr Agbi is a kind and knowledgeable doctor. My recent diagnosis with a tumour was frightening and out of the blue. During my initial consultation, the doctor I met with was a "fellow" of Dr. Agbi. I was given a remarkable amount of information, worrying statistics, and told I'd learn more at my follow up, 4 months later. It was a difficult period to wait, with a lot of fear and little context. However, after meeting with Dr Agbi, I have had all of my questions answered, a thorough explanation of my scans, my prognosis, the treatment options and the treatment plan going forward. He readily agreed to provide me with a referral for a 2nd opinion, discussed the more holistic view - how the tumour is impacting me, both physically and mentally. Dr. Agbi made certain I understood everything and listened to my concerns / questions with patience, empathy and sensitivity. I am grateful to be in the care of this doctor, I have great confidence that I will get the best possible care.
Dr Agbi was my surgeon last August 2015 I had a Benign Brain tumor! He and his team were wonderful to me and put me at ease I have had several follow up visits yet not seen him to say Thankyou!! An incredible man Thank you from Leah Reid Ottawa
Dr Agbi is a gifted surgeon. I had a Pituitary adenoma removed by him June 2016. Its true he does not talk much but who cares he knows what he is doing and in my experience having spinal surgery also in the past most surgeon dont talk much and yes maybe they have a big ego. But that is the kinda person i want fixing me. When i met him i could just tell by his demeanor and confidence that he knows what he is doing. My surgery and recovery was flawless and the staff at the civic was beyond excellent. His assistant Kathy is also amazing women. Thanks You Dr Agbi
Dr Agbi performed a Decompression Surgery on me for Chiari Malformation. When I saw him my body was gearing up to have a Stroke. He performed the Surgery within 6 days after meeting him. I needed a pretty serious Surgery in Terms of how much of my Brain was effected and he did an excellent job in the Surgery. I do have to admit that he was always late for Appointments (but that's pretty common with any Doctor) and he doesn't like to talk a lot. Really didn't offer me much help at all after the Surgery except for Ordering several follow-up MRIs so definitely have a decent Neurologist before heading on to Agbi if you need somebody to help treat the Symptoms of your Disease but as far as Surgery goes (which is what he is, a Surgeon) then I would have to give him Top Marks.
An amazing Dr with a sense of humor! Did wonderful for me Had Benign Brain tumor Aug 2015 I would highly reccomend him any day His entire team are kind Easy to understand and I owe my life to God who created this talented surgeon!! Thankyou
I would not be typing this review if it hadn't been for this amazing person. I collapsed with a brain aneurism and woke up several days later totally unaware of the tremendous effort and dedication Dr. Agbi and his staff employed to save my life. Specifically, my boyfriend still recalls the facial expression on the team members when they emerged from the surgery many hours later...exhausted but victorious. I have had folowup appointments with clear explanation and instruction, MRI s and so on to ensure I am still clear of potetial danger. The only reason I give a lower rating for punctuality is due to the fact that unfortunately I have never met the wonderful person responsible for me being here as he is always busy and a representative of the staff fills in for him. We are very fortunate in this city to have such knowledgeable dedicated surgical leaders available to us. I am forever greatful to God, friends and family for their prayers, and Dr Agbi and all the terrific staff who have helped me so far.
Where does one start, Oh yes, his ego. Open the door wide because it needs room to enter before he does. And if he has his clones with him you are just a body with an issue and he uses you to "teach" them. No eye contact, talks way too fast so he can get on to the next patient and show his clones how brilliant he is. 4 years later I am sitting on the floor, in pain because he decided it was too risky to operate and basically it was thank you very much, next. I have no love for teaching hospitals and when I am there I now know to demand no students so I get one on one face time with a doctor. I am NOT a guinea pig and he is not a coward.
This man is arrogant and a giant a$$. Stay far away!
Acoustic Neuroma tumor, surgery date was June 25th. Two weeks after, feeling pretty darn good. I'm a single mom, with 2 young boys. Dr. Agbi is an extremely skilled surgeon. Will I be included on his Christmas card list... Most likely not, but that's not what I was looking for, I was looking for a confident and skilled surgeon, and this is exactly what I got. I'm very blessed and fortunate to come out of this on the positive side. No paralysis. Headaches, yes, expected this. Complete hearing loss on side of tumor location, another expectation. My walking and balance have been pretty good. After a 10-12 hr surgery, I'm so very glad of the outcome. Than you Dr. Agbi.
Everyone here can say what they want, maybe he didn't give them the attention they wanted, like dogs, but this man is amazing, sometimes he may be late for appointments, maybe he had other things to do, I have had these issues happen to me but, a man who is this busy, training students and such, has a lot of things to do, I'm 24 years old and was supposed to be dead from my brain injury, until DR. Agbi took over, he is the kind of "this is what were doing" person, and he is incredibly smart, he has saved my life twice and I cannot state how much of a lifesaver he is.

The PowerShot D20 has been a long time coming for Canon. The company last released a waterproof model, the PowerShot D10, nearly three years ago, so we've been waiting for this new waterproof model for a while. The D20 has a strange, fish-like appearance, but its brand new lens and sensor give us hope that this waterproof camera will be a huge upgrade over its predecessor.

Photography as Sculpture
Thelander's "Photoetched Rail Yard Exposition"
By Shawna Cory
Welder Eric Thelander's dedicated experimentation resulted in his development of a photo-etching technique combining technology from screen-printing and intaglio print-making. The process involves etching a photograph into galvanized sheet metal, and then plating it with copper. The resulting sheet of metal—and its photographically detailed relief—is virtually indestructible.

Oh, the Mendacity
ALT's Cat on a Hot Tin Roof rings true
By Christopher J. Johnson
This isn't the screenplay. Elizabeth Taylor isn't here, and Paul Newman isn't involved. Tennessee Williams' play is represented here as he wrote it—and not as Hollywood portrayed it. The Albuquerque Little Theatre wants you to know that the stage version is the best version and from my vantage point, their boast is dignified and true.

Mangonui Heritage Trail -
Te Ara Tuku Iho o nga Tupuna Matua o Mangonui
Hover over a numbered site for its name and click for a description.
This trail is dedicated to the brave and determined men and women, Maori and European, who sailed across vast oceans to make a new and better life here in New Zealand (Aotearoa).
The Polynesian navigator Kupe visited this area about 900 AD in the canoe Mamaru. On a return trip the Mamaru brought the chiefs Te Parata and Tumoana, ancestors of the Ngati Kahu. later, another canoe, the Ruakaramea, was guided into a harbour by a shark. Its chief, Moehuri, named the harbour Mangonui, which means 'large shark'.
Mangonui was known as a safe harbour for whaling vessels by the late 1700s and in 1831 the first European settlers arrived.
By the mid 1800s, Mangonui was a centre for whalers and traders; the sawmilling, flax and gum industries were flourishing. In the 1900s, these industries declined, roads replaced the sea as the main transport route and Mangonui became a much quieter place.
Trail Description
Beginning and ending at the historic Mangonui Courthouse, the Mangonui Heritage Trail provides a glimpse of the great wealth of Maori and European history associated with this area.
Sites are indicated by Heritage Trail markers. Some of these provide information at the site itself, others have a number which will refer you to details in the trail brochure and on this page of the website. The brochure is available inside the Mangonui Courthouse and at the adjacent Doubtless Bay Information Centre.
The Trail is three kilometres in length and accessible by foot or vehicle. The average time that it takes to walk the Trail is one and a half hours. Walkers are advised to take the St. Andrew's Walkway (from Beach Road oposite the Police Station) to access sites and enjoy the spectacular views from above Mangonui. Please be aware that Mary Hassett Street, Tasman Street and Thomas Street are steep.
Site 1: Mangonui Courthouse, 1892
This is the second of two courthouses built in Mangonui. The first, constructed in 1850, also served as a customs house and bond store, but had become too small.
The present building functioned as a courthouse until 1948, when court proceedings moved to Kaitaia; then as a police station from 1949 to 1976. Its future became uncertain, and concerned local residents formed the Mangonui Courthouse Preservation Society. Funds were raised for restoration and much of the work was carried out by local volunteers. In 1980, the property was gazetted as an historic reserve.
It is currently administered by the Department of Conservation in conjunction with the Mangonui Courthouse Preservation Society. The building is open as a craft co-operative seven days a week. Please feel free to go inside.
The centre section of this building is built of heart kauri. It is thought to be one of the earliest two-storeyed, wooden, kauri buildings in the country.
Mr Alex McKay purchased the property in 1901. He operated a general store, known as the Wharf Store, in the downstairs area and the family lived above.
In 1910, Mr McKay moved his business across the road to the Mangonui General Store and Office Building. The Wharf Store building remained in the McKay family until 1944.
Mr J Wallis purchased the property in 1981. He built the side additions in 1994 and 1996.
The Mangonui Hall was built by George Garton in 1894. In 1950, the hall was purchased by the Mangonui County Council on behalf of the people of Mangonui to commemorate those who died in the two World Wars. It is now known as the Mangonui War Memorial Hall.
A lending library and a number of clubs, churches and organisations have used the Hall over the years; dances are still held here.
Site 4: Three Early Cottages, c.1860
At the time these three cottages were built, Beach Road was the link from Mangonui (via Mill Bay) to Coopers Beach.
WRATHALL COTTAGE, built by Mr W Nicholson, has housed three generations
of the Wrathall family and remains in their ownership. Stephen Wrathall,
arriving in Mangonui during the 1830s, was one of the earliest European
settlers in this area.
PENNEY COTTAGE, which is a private residence, was in the ownership of the Penney family for 80 years. Edward Penney first came to Mangonui in 1848 as a Police Sergeant with Magistrate W White.
BARRETT COTTAGE is a well-preserved cottage whose early history has been lost. It functions now as holiday accommodation.
At dusk on September 3, 1864, three young sailors lost their lives in an accident while crossing Mangonui Harbour. Four others survived. The drowned men were Alexander Rait, 22 years old, a seaman from England; Edmund Moody, 24 years old, a Black American slave who had arrived aboard the Plover in May 1864; and John Rose, 24 years old, an American seaman on the Cherokee. The reason for the choice of their burial site remains a mystery. The actual grave site is thought to be 3 metres behind the trail marker.
Site 6: Three Harbour Entrance Pa Sites
This point on the trail provides an excellent view of the sites of Rangikapiti Pa to the left; and Rangitoto Pa and Moehuri Pa to the right of the Mangonui Harbour entrance, .
MOEHURI, an excavated pa site, is located on Butler Point.
RANGITOTO PA is a DoC-owned reserve accessible only by water.
RANGIKAPITI PA is a DoC-owned reserve land can be accessed by vehicle from Rangikapiti Road, off State Highway 10. From the summit, the 360° views of Mangonui Harbour and Doubtless Bay are spectacular. It is a 40 minute walk from the village of Mangonui via Mill Bay to the top of Rangikapiti Pa.
The oral genealogy of Ngati Kahu links them to the chief Te Parata, the canoe Mamaru, and the mountain Whakaangi (320m above sea level) overlooking Mangonui Harbour and Doubtless Bay.
There were large village sites on the coastal slopes of the mountain. Many food storage pits, terraces, defensive ditches and burial sites are still visible.
Scattered over Whakaangi, among the forest regrowth, are kauri trees more than 600 years old. The native forest of Whakaangi is the northernmost remnant of mainland New Zealand forest. It is only in the last 2.5 million years that sand spits joined what were once island areas of KariKari and Aupouri Peninsulas to the mainland. A predator trapping programme on the mountain is providing a safe haven for brown kiwi, which are increasing in numbers.
Site 8: St. Andrew's Church, 1860
St Andrew's Church which was opened by the Rev Joseph Matthews in November 1860, served as a combined school and church until 1870.
The churchyard gravestones record many of the early family names from Mangonui. The belfry was erected in 1862 and an extension to the building added in 1976. The stained glass windows were installed in 1992; the window behind the altar depicting a scene from the life of St Andrew as a fisherman, the two smaller windows showing early Mangonui history - whaling, timber milling and early Maori settlement of the area. The circular church lounge addition was dedicated in 1997.
Regular services of several denominations are held here.
This single-room school was opened on July 2 1884.
Prior to 1884, Mangonui children had been taught next door in St Andrew's Church (Site 8) with an average of 12 pupils and then in a schoolhouse on Tasman Street (Site 11).
From 1950, Mangonui School acquired new buildings, expanding to accommodate its growing roll.
Site 10: Early Colonial Villa, 1902
This beautifully-preserved villa was built in 1902 by Mr John Bray, proprietor of several hotels in Mangonui.
It was home to a number of early Mangonui doctors, including Dr Douglas Cameron, a surgeon who conducted a private practice from this house. In 1926, Dr Cameron was appointed as the first Surgeon-Superintendent of the Mangonui Hospital, which was located further up the hill (across State Highway 10). The Hospital buildings were subsequently relocated to Kaitaia.
Please respect the owner's privacy by not entering this property.
Site 11: Original Mangonui School and County Council Building, 1870
This was the first purpose-built school in Mangonui. Classes had previously been held in St Andrew's Church. From its beginning in 1877, the Mangonui County Council held its meetings here after school hours. When a new school was built on Colonel Mould Drive in 1884, the Council had exclusive use of this building until moving its headquarters to Kaitaia in 1918.
Please respect the owner's privacy and do not enter this property.
Mangonui c 1900
Site 12: Windermere - an original homestead, c.1870
Charles Harris, an Englishman, built this house of pit-sawn kauri for his New Zealand-born wife, Harriet Wells. Near the house were stables and a saddle room, part of the Harris coach and livery business.
A semi-detached cooking area and another side addition were incorporated into the main structure of the house in the early 1900s.
The house remained in the Harris family for nearly one hundred years. By the early 1970s it had become dilapidated. Subsequent owners have restored the home and grounds to their present beauty.
Please respect the owner's privacy by not entering the grounds of Windermere.
The Old Oak Hotel was built by John McIntosh and was first known as the Mangonui Hotel.
In 1906, when the Settlers Hotel in Mill Bay was demolished, the name and licence were transferred to this hotel. In 1910 the proprietor, John Bray, changed the hotel's name to The Old Oak. At that time there was an oak tree, about 30 - 40 years old, in front of the hotel.
In the following years the building was been used as a boarding house, private residence, butcher's shop, restaurant, craft shop and again as a hotel.
Site 14: The Feist Bakery, 1920
This bakery, owned by Mr J Feist, was built in 1920 on the site of a previous saddlery constructed around 1900. The adjoining cottage was built shortly after 1920 and housed most of the subsequent owners of the bakery building.
The bakery was extended to accommodate wood-fired brick kilns which in turn gave way to electric ovens. By the mid-1900s, the need for local bakeries had disappeared and the building lay empty.
From 1981 to 1985, the building was used as a workshop for handcrafted kauri furniture. Since then it has been in use as a shop.
Site 15: Viewing point for the Flax Mill site
Eight hundred metres to the south, at the intersection of Waterfront Road and State Highway 10, is Pikiwahine Stream. This was the site of a flax mill operated by local Maori in the 1860s.
New Zealand flax was used for making ropes, bearing a greater strain than many other materials available at the time. In the 1860s, a ton of dressed flax was valued in England at 18 - 25 pounds sterling.
The flax price peaked in 1873, after shortages of manila were caused by the American Civil War. Prices then slumped until around 1900, when they increased again. The flax mill then operated for at least another ten years by Messrs Gillibrand and Bray.
Site 16: The Leser Buildings, 1900-1909
The complex of buildings on the corner of Thomas Street and Waterfront Road was built by a German, Gustav Leser, in the early 1900s.
Prior to this, a small group of structures stood here, including the Massey Harris bicycle shop which was demolished in 1900 to make way for Mr Leser's general store.
Mr Leser lived around the corner on Thomas Street in a tiny building affectionately known as the "toy store", a replica of which is there today.
At the time of his marriage in 1909, Gus Leser built the two-storeyed wooden residence on Waterfront Road on the southern side of his general store.
It is thought that the central portion of the cottage was built in 1864 by a Mr Crick.
Several doctors, a solicitor and members of both the Wrathall and Wilton families have lived here in earlier days. During the 1980s, renovation work was undertaken by Mr D Hawthorne.
Extensive restorations and the addition of a verandah overlooking the harbour were carried out in 2000.
Please respect the owner's privacy and do not enter this property.
Site 18: Mangonui Methodist Church, 1909
The Methodist Church was built in 1909 on this site, but was unable to be preserved. It was demolished for safety reasons in 2009 after 100 years.
Site 19: Bank of Australasia Building, 1911
The Bank of Australasia was opened for business in Mangonui on 22 August 1911, initially with 37 customers. The bank building consisted of a banking chamber; a manager's office and a sitting room and bedroom, so the bank officer could live on the premises, as was the custom.
In 1947 the Bank of Australasia ceased to exist and was replaced by the ANZ Bank.
The ANZ Bank continued to operate out of these premises until the mid-1960s, after which a variety of shops and professional offices have used the building.
The Mangonui Hotel, sometimes known as the New Settlers Hotel, was the fourth and last of the hotels which had been established in Mangonui over a 63-year period. It was built in 1905 - 1906 by John Bray, then the proprietor of the Old Oak Hotel at the southern end of the village.
The Historic Places Trust of New Zealand considers the two-storeyed Mangonui Hotel building to be the most beautiful old hotel in the country. It holds a Category One rating from the Trust.
Site 21: Mangonui Post Office Building, 1904
The second, larger post office building was erected in 1904 on the site of the first post office built in 1876. Opened on 28 November 1904, the new building included accommodation for the postmaster.
A telephone exchange was added in 1971, with 15 initial subscribers. In May 1989, as part of the restructuring of postal services, the post office was closed. A restaurant now occupies the building.
Site 22: Mangonui General Store and Offices, 1907
This building was erected on piles over the waters of Mangonui Harbour in 1907 by Mr R T Wrathall. The store was located adjacent to the old Mangonui Wharf. The old Mangonui Wharf, built in 1877 but later demolished, was the port of call for the Northern Steamship Company's passenger vessel the Clansman. The Clansman operated between Auckland and the Far North from 1884 until 1931.
The building housed a dentist's surgery and a variety of small shops until 1910 when Mr Alex McKay moved his general store operations here from the Wharf Store across the road. It has retained its function as a general store over the years as well as providing private accommodation.
23: Whaling Museum, 1840s House and Gardens,
Butler Point
Captain William Butler (1814 - 1875), an English whaler settled here in 1839 and established a trading post for American and European whalers. The Museum displays a restored and fully-equipped whaleboat and a comprehensive collection of whaling artefacts.
The Butler Homestead is recognised by the NZ Historic Places Trust. Extensive grounds include a certified Garden of Significance and notable trees, including a pohutukawa tree approaching 1,000 years old.
The Moehuri Pa site has been archaeologically investigated and interpretative signs are provided.
Butler Point is open strictly by appointment. Charge applies. Phone 0800 MUSEUM (687386).

The development of the Mangonui Heritage Trail would not have been possible without the inspiration of Neva Clarke McKenna. Much of the historical information offered on this trail is derived from her book "Mangonui - Gateway to the Far North" published by the Northland Historical Publications Inc 1990. The Trail itself is based on her Historical Mangonui Walk outlined in her books "Doubtless Bay" and "Discovering Northland's Past".
The Trail is maintained by Mangonui Heritage Trail Management Committee
(ph: 09 406 0344 | Contact: Cliff Knight) with financial support from Te Hiku Community Board, Far North District Council.
You can pick up a printed map (NZ$1.00) from the Doubtless Bay Information Centre or the adjacent Mangonui Courthouse (#1 on the map).

Spokeo, Inc. v. Robins: A Well Executed Punt?
On Friday, the Supreme Court came out with its long awaited decision in Spokeo, Inc. v. Robins. In a nutshell, the Court really decided little: it vacated the previous 9th Circuit decision and remanded the case back to that court for further consideration. In some quarters, that would be called a "punt."
Nevertheless, perhaps the result can be summarized at best as a tie for defendants – the Court was clear that the mere allegation of the violation of a statute that contains a monetary penalty would not support standing. But at worst for defendants the decision clearly leaves the door open for claims that involve only a statutory violation and penalty can proceed where there is some sort of undefined link between the penalty and some tangible or intangible harm.

Tyson Foods v. Bouaphakeo: A Retreat From Dukes or Just a Spoliation Case?
In March, the Supreme Court decided Tyson Foods v. Bouaphakeo,a much watched case involving the propriety of class certification.
Since the landmark decision in Wal-Mart v. Dukes, lower courts have found ways of restricting the applicability of Dukes and Comcast v. Behrend in ways to find certification despite the apparent suggestion in Dukes that certification was limited and the notion of trial by formula was discredited. (See our October 2014 post.) Many commentators, including me, thought that Tyson would provide the opportunity for the Court to restrain these lower court interpretations. (See our blog posts of June 2015 and November 2015.)

Supreme Court Issues Final Word on Whether Unaccepted Rule 68 Offers of Judgment Moot Putative Class Actions… Or Does It?
Yesterday, the Supreme Court issued a decision in which it held that an unaccepted Rule 68 offer of judgment made to the named plaintiff in a putative class action does not moot the case. In doing so, the Court seemingly put an end to what was a contentious class action issue—an issue that this blog has followed closely. Interestingly, however, the Court chose not to decide whether a Rule 68 offer could moot a case if accompanied by a payment in the amount of that offer. Read More ›

Law and Technology Disconnect: Tennessee Just Killed Encryption Safe Harbor
Tennessee has recently enacted some potentially far reaching changes to its data breach notification statutes. These changes could pose substantial burdens on businesses and professional organizations that do business in Tennessee and maintain personal information of Tennessee residents. Effective July 1, 2016, the Tennessee definition of what constitutes a "breach of the security of the system" that triggers notice includes not only the loss of unencrypted data but encrypted data as well (if that data includes personally identifiable information of Tennesseans). Tennessee is the first state in the country to eliminate a safe harbor from data breach notice obligations where the breach involves encrypted data. Read More ›

Second Circuit Says Federal Warrant Cannot Be Used to Obtain Customer Data Stored Overseas in Cloud
On July 14, the Second Circuit ordered a lower court to quash a government warrant demanding that Microsoft turn over a user's emails that resided on servers located in Ireland. See Microsoft Corporation v. United States of America, No. 14-2985 (S.D.N.Y. July 14, 2016).
The dispute concerned emails stored by a user of Microsoft's web-based email service, outlook.com, which the government believed would show that the user was involved in drug trafficking. A U.S. magistrate judge found probable cause and issued a warrant under Section 2703 of the Stored Communication Act (SCA). Although Microsoft produced certain non-content information stored on its United States servers in response to the warrant, it filed a motion to quash the warrant as it pertained to the user's emails which were stored on Microsoft's servers located in Dublin, Ireland.

It's official - EU approves Privacy Shield
Nine months after the EU-U.S. Safe Harbor Framework for personal data was declared invalid by the EU Court of Justice, EU and U.S. officials announced the approval and adoption of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework. The Privacy Shield is a negotiated agreement that replaces the Safe Harbor Framework, and provides U.S. companies with a structure for establishing that their collection, use and transfer of personal data of EEA (European Economic Area) citizens is handled in a manner that provides adequate protection as required by EU data privacy laws. It addresses the key concerns voiced by EU officials and others: U.S. assurances concerning bulk data collection for government mass surveillance purposes; a right of redress in the U.S. for EU citizens and mechanisms for that redress; and a requirement for data retention.

Brexit's Implications on European IP
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom voted to withdraw as a member of the European Union.

The latest edition of "Friday Night Fights" (ESPN2, 10:30 pm ET), from the Tropicana Casino in Atlantic City, N.J., features a tripleheader headlined by unbeaten interim featherweight titlist Javier Fortuna against Mexico's Miguel Zamudio.
The promising Fortuna (22-0, 15 KOs), a 23-year-old southpaw from La Romana, Dominican Republic, is quick and aggressive with an exciting style and lethal left hand. He looks to finish his fights early, and often times achieves that, with 10 of his 15 knockouts coming in the first round.
Fortuna, however, was taken the distance in December when he captured his interim title from unbeaten Irish contender Patrick Hyland and didn't look as good as he did in previous fights, in spite of the limitations of his opponent.
This opens a question mark heading into his bout with Zamudio (25-1-1, 13 KOs), an aggressive brawler just like Hyland with a clear strategy to defeat the Dominican fighter.
"It is true that I am a puncher, but I can handle any style, and against Fortuna there will be no mystery," Zamudio told ESPN.com. "I will chase him throughout the ring until I find him. I've seen his videos, he runs a lot, but I will cut the ring on him. I am prepared for everything."
Zamudio (25-1-1, 13 KOs) brings an attractive record and has suffered just one loss, coming at the beginning of his career. But even though Zamudio has won five of his last seven fights by knockout, they have come against soft competition. In his last fight, he barely defeated Gilberto Bolanos, a 35-year-old veteran with 20 defeats, in an eight-round split decision.
"I fight for my people, I come to take [this fight] and then challenge [Indonesian super featherweight champion] Chris John," Zamudio said. "He will be my next victim."
Whatever intentions Zamudio may have, Fortuna is clearly the favorite heading into Friday's bout thanks to his devastating power.
"I have prepared to fight 12 rounds, but I am confident I could knock him out before the eighth," Fortuna said. "I've seen Zamudio fight, I know him quite well. I've worked with similar sparring partners and for every style I have the right strategy. He is a difficult opponent, but I am the champion and no one will make that situation change."
The fight also comes on the two-month anniversay of the death of his father, Santiago Fortuna, who died after suffering cardiac arrest on Feb. 19 in the Dominican Republic.
"I will fight with him in my mind, and in tribute to him," Fortuna said.
Whether or not his emotional state is affected by the impact of his father's death remains to be seen, but Fortuna is confident he will secure the victory and said he would like to face Nicholas Walters of Jamaica, who is the WBA's "regular" featherweight champion.
"I don't care where they make the fight, if it's necessary I will fight him in his own home in Jamaica," Fortuna said.
Fortuna trains in Oxnard, Calif., under Argentina's Pablo Sarmiento, who also works with middleweight champion Sergio Martinez.
Friday's undercard features the son of legendary three-time world champion Julian Jackson when John "Dah Rock" Jackson (15-1, 14 KOs) of the Virgin Islands faces Minnestoa's Cerresso Fort (16-0-1) in a junior middleweight bout.

Artist's Statement
I am a life long painter and have been a resident of Damariscotta, Maine since the turn of the century. I live my dream painting in the coastal environment. The inlets and islands of the Maine coast fascinate me. Whether reached by land or sea, working on location is my preference. Being in the midst of changing beauty while painting anchors me in time and place and there is nothing else I would rather do.
I am motivated to publicly display and sell my work. I want to give something of my rich experiences to those who honor my work by bringing it into their lives. I use a straightforward, realistic style using thin layers of Golden brand Acrylics.
Jane Herbert - 14 High Street, Damariscotta, Maine 04543

It's like a Broadway show for people with cataracts.
If it seems like Fox News is more aggressive with the lip liner and the curling iron on its female anchors and guests than rival networks, that may be because makeup has a "unique role in [Fox News CEO Roger] Ailes's creation myth," according to an article in this month's Atlantic.
As an executive producer of The Mike Douglas Show, Ailes reportedly convinced Richard Nixon to embrace television and makeup again after his embarrassing loss to John F. Kennedy in 1960, attributed in part to bad pancake makeup in a televised debate. Combine that personal history with Ailes's background as a Broadway producer and you've got the signature look of Fox News anchors, "who are often outfitted in body-hugging dresses of vibrant red and turquoise, their eyes enhanced by not only liner and shadow but also false lashes."
It sounds like overkill, considering cable news happens on a high-definition plasma screen, not a far-off stage, but writer Liza Mundy points out that the network's demographics skew old. Maybe Fox viewers can't even see them unless they're outlined like cartoon characters.

For more than 30 years, psychologists Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald have been studying the unconscious biases that take root in our brains, coloring everything from hiring decisions to how doctors mete out medical care and judges rule on sentences. If you don't think you harbor any such mental stowaways, tugging you in favor of white over black, straight over gay, or male over female - yes, perhaps even if you're a proud black lesbian - then log onto Harvard University's Project Implicit and prepare to be disappointed in someone you never knew held such appalling views: you.
The news in Banaji and Greenwald's new book, "Blindspot: Hidden Biases of Good People," is not what we want to hear, either: The pair's research suggests that while children aren't born with racial preferences, they develop them incredibly early, so that a 3-year-old African American child is just as statistically likely as an adult to show preference for white over black. Across age groups, about 40 percent of African Americans show a pro-white bias on the Implicit Association Test developed by the authors and their colleague Brian Nosek, while 40 percent favor black and the rest are neutral. Some 14 million people have taken the test so far.
Similarly, women are even more likely than men to associate masculine names with career-related words and feminine names with home-related words. That last one stings a little less when Banaji explains that it's not so much that women find it hard to identify women with career. "But men with home? No."
To hold such hidden views is not necessarily to act on them, of course - but there is evidence that the stronger the bias, the more likely we are to do just that. Banaji's work has convinced her that one of the most common forms of acting on an unconscious bias is less likely to involve hurting "the other" than helping someone with whom we identify, or unconsciously favor as a member of the dominant group.
One example of this in the book is an incident in which a friend of Banaji's, a woman named Diane, cut her hand badly and her boyfriend rushed her to the emergency room, where he worriedly explained to the doctors that he feared the injury could keep her from doing the quilting that was her hobby. Not to worry, they said; stitching it up quickly was the key.
Just then, though, a volunteer came in, saw the quilter and cried, "Professor, what are you doing here?" Now identified as a Yale University professor, the doctors instantly reversed themselves and, instead of stitching her right up, called in a top hand surgeon. They weren't consciously, of course, valuing Diane the Ph.D. over Diane the humble quilter, and yet these are the kind of "favors" we might need to rethink if we want to be as fair and egalitarian as we say we want to be.
One of the strongest biases Banaji has studied favors slim folks over heavy, though unless you are morbidly obese or work as an athlete or a body double, metabolism is probably not the best measure of talent or competence in your field. So, to rise to the top, forget night school and lose 10 pounds? It's sad, Banaji said, but yes. We also favor extroverts, even when giving good meeting has little to do with the job.
Given her work on racial bias, was she surprised when Barack Obama was elected president? Yes, she said, but added, "Don't forget he was running against a woman and an elderly man who's short" - yes, the last is yet another shortchanged category.
The Implicit Association Test I tried - Franklin D. Roosevelt vs. Obama - is one of the more benign ones, but plenty telling, all the same. The exercise is to rapidly sort images of Obama in the same bucket with positive words, and images of FDR in the one with negative words, then switch; the president you can more quickly associate with "wonderful" than "miserable" and so on is the one you implicitly favor. Now, consciously, I would say that while I hold favorable views of both men, I surely give extra points to the one who got us out of the Great Depression, defeated the Nazis and dealt us the New Deal. Right?
Well, no. The result shows I favor Obama. When I asked Banaji to please tell me I could not have picked up this "mindbug" from that dreadful recent movie that showed FDR mistreating the women in his life - especially when I myself wrote about how inaccurate "Hyde Park on Hudson" was - she laughed and said that was actually a perfect example of how such views burrow in, even when our conscious minds know better.
So, are we stuck with these pernicious stowaways? They're incredibly hard to dislodge, she said, but being aware of them can help us work around them. And when we say a job candidate "just doesn't fit," those words ought to be a red flag. "Unless I can justify why I feel that way," Banaji says, "I don't say that anymore."

It was 1968, and Ann Rule tapped out stories on an old fashioned typewriter in the basement of her
beach shack, with four noisy kids playing beside her. Changing the ribbon was a messy job, and a typing mistake meant Rule had to crumple up the page and start over. So she learned to NOT make mistakes. The words flowed from her fingers tips, as she typed each article from beginning to end, never tossing out a page. The lack of technology, however, wasn't Rule's biggest challenge. Crime writing was a male dominated field, where females were not welcome. The editor of the detective magazines told her to pick a male pen name because "Readers will never believe that a woman knows so much about crime." "Andy Stack" was born and "he" published over a thousand true crime articles over the next decade. At the request of Rule's diehard fans, we have launched RETRO ANN RULE TRUE CRIME SHORTS, recycled from those long ago articles Rule wrote as Andy Stack. Rule has definitely grown as an author since the early days, but her most avid readers will appreciate Rule in her raw form, in these tight yet informative crime stories. DANGER IN THE DORM chronicles a 1972 murder on what was considered one of the safest campuses in America. Dorm residents at Oregon State University felt so secure that some never bothered to lock their doors, unaware of the evil that lurked nearby. Everyone was shocked when the first girl was attacked. Soon there were more assaults. When honor student Nancy Wyckoff was murdered in her dorm room, detectives worked round the clock to catch her killer. But they were stumped when more victims came forward. The attacks did not seem to follow any pattern. DANGER IN THE DORM is one of Rule's earliest true crime stories published over four decades ago. In this RETRO ANN RULE TRUE CRIME SHORT, Rule reports on the tragedy that frightened students on campuses all over Oregon and beyond.

Danger in the Dorm
Another great true crime story from arguably the world's premier true crime writer. Probably not of the very high standard of Ann`s more recent stories but one must keep two things mind - (1) This was one of the first writings by a then new author who was still learning the finer points and (2) This was written forty years ago prior to many advances in crime investigation and reporting. I have read many of this authors books and recommend her to any reader who enjoys reading reading well researched and well written true crime stories.by Eddie on July 20, 2013

Another fantastic book by Ann Rule! This one wasn't lengthly, but it had all the drama and suspense of her other books. It's an older book, but nevertheless, just as terror-filled and informative as the rest.by Fralix on January 23, 2014

Which CO - flights do connect to this one?
|Quoting GlobeEx (Reply 3):
Strange, would have imagined that COs Oilbusiness passangers would connect to this flight, when they codeshare. Well, this way KL grabs that traffic.


text: Everything you see and read about E107 is spot on. Fully equipped,superb location in resort, appropriately furnished,etc. Seaside staff excellent and very helpful. Colins restaurant was so good we did not cook some meals as planned. Terrific security and impeccable grounds and maintenance. I would recommend to anyone and everyone and of course we would return to this property.
