Use Case: The Exchange of Crypto-Addresses
There is a strategical path of adoption we will follow in parallel to our critical path. This path is about penetrating the cryptocurrency industry where dozens of cryptocurrency projects have the same problem that the Internet of People can help them solve.
Every cryptocurrency project has their wallet to enable users to store their tokens. Bitcoin has several standalone desktop and mobile wallet apps. It also has centralized wallet providers, with their mobile apps, which we won't discuss further. All other cryptocurrency projects have their own wallet apps, many are forks of bitcoin wallets, as is ours.
What is the problem? All of these standalone wallets need their users to exchange addresses, often via insecure means, like email, instant messages, SMS and so on. There is a real security risk every time they do so, that the address is monitored by a third party or even modified on its path to the recipient device. Usually the receiver of an address has no means to determine the validity of that address, and has to trust that he received the address just as it was sent. Since cryptocurrency payments are irreversible, this is the perfect recipe for disaster. A related problem is of usability, since this crypto-addresses are scary for most non-technical people out there, and they get afraid of misspelling or mishandling them.
What is the solution? The Internet of People can solve this problem, allowing any wallet app to upload a profile to the IoP and by doing so, wallet users will be able to find each other, and once they do, their devices can get a direct connection between each other, allowing the wallet apps on each device to exchange addresses under the sight of end users, which will only know each other by their name or aliases, and never see these crypto-addresses again.
Our plan is the following:
- First we implement this functionality in our own mobile IoP Wallet
- Then we submit a pull request to the Bitcoin wallet from which our IoP wallet was forked from. We would previously agree with their maintainers to be sure the pull request will be merged. Once done, an update on the client software would on-board all users of that wallet to the Internet of People.
- Finally, once that proved to be successful and other projects see the value of our solution, we will help all the others to upgrade their wallet and connect them to the Internet of People as well.
This seems like a very good plan to me, since we would penetrate the whole cryptocurrency industry whose members will all end up knowing about Fermat and some of them might further support the project.

My good friends Meg and Bill tied the knot this past weekend at a beautiful castle outside of Denver. Meg having lived in Hawaii for many years had a summery beach theme. Most of my dresses are very fall colored so I thought I'd make a dress for her special day.
I used Simplicity pattern 4070. Instead of using all the same fabric I used a mix. I also lined the bodice in cotton. I do this for more strength in the corseting and comfort. When you are hot and sweaty it feels great. I lined the skirt with a polyester that had similar drape to the coral fabric. If making this dress make sure to try the bodice on multiple times. It fit terribly from the pattern as is. I had to take in the sides and above the bust to make it fit more properly.
When I was digging through my stash I found the coral fabric in my skirt. It was a flowy polyester I bought probably 10 years ago! I realized it looked great with the Boucherouite print in Blush from the Luxe in Bloom fabric line. Luxe in Bloom was designed by a friend I went to college with, Sarah Watson. Maybe I'm biased but I do love the line.
I actually made the dress with the intention of not adding the belt as seen in the pattern. When I tried it on I realized it did indeed need a band of something around the waist. I used one of the coordinates from Luxe in Bloom, Crystalline in Cobalt.
I also whipped up a little clutch to match my dress. The bride saw the clutch the night before and asked if I could make something for her in her wedding colors to carry around at the reception. I unfortunately do not have a picture of hers.
So my hair looks like hell and let me explain why. When we were getting ready to go to the hotel I had the dress on to figure out what shoes to wear. As I bent over to take them off the invisible zipper in the back snapped apart! Luckily it snapped at home and not at the wedding. My husband had to literally cut me out of the dress to get it off! He seam ripped out the zip while I finished getting stuff together. I quickly put in a heavy duty metal fashion zipper. I didn't have time to hand sew the lining to the zip as I still had to finish putting makeup on in the car ride to the hotel. We got to the hotel with very little time to jump on the shuttle. My plan was to quickly change at the wedding location. So I brought needle and thread to stitch the lining on while we rode to the wedding location...
But the shuttles took all the guests to the wrong wedding!!! I managed to get a hold of some of the bridal party to tell them we were going to be late. Thinking I'd have no time to change I shimmied my dress under the one I was wearing. With the help of the mother of the Officiant and, we had me dressed and ready to go. Then we got word another shuttle broke down and had to wait for a new one to get the guests! Yikes. Meg handled the whole mess up beautifully. Everyone finally made it to see Meg and Bill look so dashing to say their vows.
Here we are with the bride and groom!
Cheers to Meg and Bill,

|Home > World News > Article
The Tokyo Electric Power Company - one of Japan's biggest corporations - has been caught concealing cracks in the core structures of its reactors in the late 1980s and the '90s. The plant we stand outside today - the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Plant - is one of two involved in the scandal.
While it is not quite The China Syndrome - the 1979 film dealing with a cover-up at a nuclear plant - it has the element of deceit in the most dangerous of industries. The cracks in the core shrouds, as far as the public have been told, have not led to any accidents.
But if Tepco - as the company is known - did this, what else has happened behind closed corporate doors? Since the story broke, the whole industry has been under scrutiny, and there have been allegations that at least one other company was involved in a similar cover-up in 1994.
But it is the Tepco scandal that has had the biggest impact. The cover-up was revealed only after a tip-off from a whistleblower at a subcontractor. Remarkably, it was two years before Japan's nuclear safety agency made the breaches public. To cap off the incompetence, there are reports the agency leaked the name of the whistleblower to Tepco.
"I wasn't surprised when I heard the news," said Yukiko Kondo, who heads the Women's Group to Protect Life at Kariwa Village, just two kilometres from the plant. "From the beginning, I didn't trust Tepco."
We are sitting in the protest headquarters at Kariwa, a village of about 5000. The building is a working place of concrete floors, posters and optimism, from where a motivated band of Davids plan their strategies against their nuclear Goliath.
Apart from the banners draped on the house, there is not much to tell you that Kariwa is so near the plant. The village is a neat, unexceptional place, interspersed with rice paddies now dry after the harvest. But look to the surrounding hills: they are straddled by the huge power pylons that carry the electricity generated.
What is it like to live in the shadow of the world's biggest nuclear plant? "It's threatening," Ms Kondo said.
Each time there is a problem at the plant, Tepco tells the Niigata prefecture government, which then tells the residents, and the anti-nuclear activists head to the gates to protest. Last year, the protesters made the journey 11 times.
The plant was first proposed in 1968, and was promoted by the local Liberal Democratic Party MP, Kakuei Tanaka, who became prime minister in the 1970s. The proposal split the residents into opponents and those who saw jobs and state subsidies for the area.
Not much has changed. While there is a vocal anti-nuclear group, about 350 people are employed at the plant.
But this latest scandal has even nuclear supporters here thinking about safety - particularly Tepco's plan to introduce contentious pluthermal technology. This involves recycling plutonium by turning it into uranium-plutonium mixed oxide fuel.
Kariwa villagers had already voted against the technology in May, but the scandal has seen one-time supporters switch sides. The prefecture of Niigata, home to the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Plant, has revoked its permission for Tepco to use the technology. Fukushima, where the other Tepco plant involved in the scandal is located, has taken a similar position.
The Government has also acknowledged the pluthermal technology it supports appears to have suffered a critical blow. "We don't think we can simply pursue the policy any longer as the very precondition - confidence of the public or local residents - has been undermined," Seiji Murata, Japan's top economic, trade and industry bureaucrat, said.
Beyond the pluthermal issue, the scandal has raised issues about the future of the nuclear industry. Resource-poor Japan went nuclear after the oil crises of the 1970s, and embraced the technology with a passion.
But the industry received a serious blow three years ago, after an accident at a uranium processing plant at Tokaimura, about 150 kilometres north of Tokyo. The accident left two dead, and hundreds of thousands were evacuated.
Now, the Tepco scandal has even the Government angry. "It's absolutely abominable that this incident caused the people's confidence to be largely lost in nuclear energy, which is a pillar of the nation's energy policy," the Industry Minister, Takeo Hiranuma, said.
Tepco has responded with public apologies and the resignation of top executives. Its own report on the scandal admitted "systematic and inappropriate management of nuclear power inspections and repair work for a long time".
The report blamed the cover-ups on a "strong sense of responsibility" by employees to get plants back on line as scheduled.
Back at Kariwa, Yukiko Kondo has her own strong sense of responsibility, directed towards the hope that one day the world's biggest nuclear power plant will be scrapped. In the meantime, had she considered leaving Kariwa?
Never, she said. "Right now, we have 53 nuclear plants in Japan. No matter where you go, the same thing is going to happen."
The Japan syndrome
� Nuclear power is a key plank in Japan's energy policy. The country has 53 reactors
� Tokyo Electric covered up cracks and other damage at 13 reactors in the 1980s and 1990s, but maintains there is no safety risk
� Japan Atomic Power was accused of not reporting cracks in 1994
� The name of the whistleblower who exposed the scandal was reportedly leaked by nuclear safety authorities to his company, Tokyo Electric
� The scandal means plans to introduce controversial pluthermal technology are on hold. Concerns about the technology, which involves recycling plutonium produced by nuclear reactors, remain

The Business of Freelancing

Persistence – key to getting published
Respected freelancer Alison Aprhys, pictured right, tells this story of persistence and self-belief. I wanted to cover the Victorian floods but could not get a media outlet to commit to buying my images / stories, so I just drove to Horsham / Warracknabeal as an independent freelancer. Took gumboots, camera, laptop, sleeping bag and loads …

Contracts – model contracts
Having reviewed some of the key components of a freelance contract it's time to look at a couple of actual contracts. I'm not saying that these are the contracts you ought to use (I'm not a lawyer – you should get legal advice before signing a contract) but they're examples of the sorts of contracts …

Contracts – copyright, ownership and intellectual property
When you complete a piece of work and deliver it to a client can you re-use it with another client? Or, can the client then use it over and over? Can they on-sell it? Can you resell it to another client? All of these questions have, at their heart, the basic principles of copyright, ownership …

Contracts – defining the scope of work
It's amazing but so often I hear of freelancers who end up in dispute with clients over what seems to be obvious – neither party understood what the other understood the work to be. In today's instalment on freelance contracts I'm going to be short and sweet. As a freelancer – before you agree to …

59 people were killed and almost 100 more were injured in a brutal terrorist bombing in a Baghdad marketplace on Sunday.
According to Yahoo News, the first bomb went off in the Mredi market in the Shiite district of Sadr City. Minutes later, a suicide bomber detonated his explosives in the area many had gathered after the first bombing.
Interior Ministry spokesman Sad Main originally claimed that 38 people were killed and another 62 were wounded, but hospital officials later revealed that there were actually 59 fatalities and 95 people injured.
We will update you further as this story develops.

Foreign arrivals into Asia-Pacific increased three per cent to 597 million in 2016, led by Asia with almost 436 million international arrivals (70 per cent), followed by the Americas with close to 147 million arrivals (34 per cent) and the Pacific with 24.5 million international arrivals (12 per cent), according to PATA's Annual Travel Monitor 2017 Early Edition.
Intra-regional travel flows were extremely strong for Asia and the Americas, the report stated, with 94 per cent and 78 per cent of their inbound volumes respectively arising from within the same region.
South Korea among 17 destinations that saw double digit growth; Bukchon Hanok Village, Seoul pictured
Seventeen of the 47 destinations surveyed in the study saw double-digit growth rates, including Nepal and South Korea which each saw increases of more than 30 per cent, and over 20 per cent for Mongolia, Japan and Vietnam.
Growth was once again not uniform across Asia-Pacific with seven destinations reporting contractions. However, despite significant challenges, Turkey's tourism sector saw nearly 18 million additional arrivals added to its foreign inbound count year-on-year.
Origin markets in North-east Asia were the largest generators of absolute volumes, led by China and Hong Kong which generated 108.5 million and 93.7 million arrivals respectively, followed by Macau (24.4 million arrivals), South Korea (23.2 million), Japan (20.3 million) and Taiwan (19.8 million).
Singapore was the only South-east Asian origin market within the top 10 feeder markets, generating close to 19.9 million visitors.
Among the origin sub-regions, North-east Asia topped that list with an additional eight million arrivals within its own sub-region between 2015 and 2016, and 4.4 million additional arrivals into South-east Asia.
The reverse was also true with South-east Asia generating 2.2 million and 1.8 million additional foreign arrivals into North-east Asia and South-east Asia itself respectively.

PHILADELPHIA - The 14th annual Alumni Weekend came to a close Saturday with the Alumni Game. The varsity welcomed back the alumni on Friday night at a banquet celebrating the 1996 ELFL Championship team. The welcome was short-lived, however, as the varsity shut down the alumns on Saturday, 20-0.
Friends, families and fellow alums gathered at Franklin Field to watch Quakers of the past and present do battle on the field one more time.
Head coach Bill Wagner and his staff always look forward to this game as an opportunity to work on situational play as well as showing the alumni that the program is in good hands.
Unfortunately for the alums, the good hands belonged to Rob Lombardi. The running back rushed ten times for 61 yards and two touchdowns. Lombardi scored from one yard out late in the first half and found the end zone from eight yards out in the second half.Not content with dominating on offense, Lombardi played both ways. Late in the second half he intercepted alumni quarterback and school record-holder in passing yardage, Mike Loguidice.
Mike D'Angelo showed why he is Coach Wagner's choice at starting quarterback. He contributed both with his arm and with his legs. The Quakers' first touchdown was through the air when D'Angelo found Tomas Altamirano in a fade pattern from 24 yards out. D'Angelo finished the game 9-of-16 for 116 yards and a TD. He also scrambled for 55 yards, most of which came on a 37-rd scamper down the sideline.
Clarke Armatis and Michael Stack each caughtthree balls for the varsity, showing that D'Angelo will have many options when the Quakers open up their aerial attack.
Penn's defense sacked Loguidice four times and picked him off three times. Drew Dampier led the team in tackles with three. Mike Paci, Michael McMullenand Kyle Kekesien added two apiece.
Penn opens its regular season on September 14 when the Quakers travel to Ithaca, N.Y. to play Cornell. Penn returns to Franklin Field on September 28 to take on Princeton. Both games start at 7 p.m.

Building Bridges Between Personal and Professional, Executive and Employee, Science and Spirit, Heart and Head.
1223 W. Linwood Springfield, MO 65807 888.434.9085 email@example.com
Marlene Chism's Speaking Once you have chosen Marlene as a speaker, the core content is customized around your theme, objectives and suggestions, fitting the themes of empowerment, change, reinvention, life purpose, productivity, personal effectiveness, relationships, leadership, boss-employee relationships, courageous communication, enlightened leadership, tools for transformation, and personal mastery.
Audience Types
Marlene Chism has the unique ability to speak across the boundaries of many types of audiences: from the fortune 500 executives to employees on the front lines, from small business owners to entrepreneurs. Marlene's own journey of reinvention has given her the gift of speaking three languages: The language of the employee, the language of the manager and the language of the owner. Marlene says, "The owner just wants to get to the treasure chest on the island, the manager just wants everyone to row harder and faster, and the rowers just want a better seat cushion on the boat."
Working with Marlene It has been said that Marlene is a meeting planner's dream come true. She's dependable, accessible and is committed to helping you achieve your objectives.
Marlene understands the importance of getting attendees to be excited about the meeting. With various packages Marlene offers marketing packages to help the meeting planner create buzz and excitement. Whether it's a customized, video message, a webpage with a free giveaway, a savethe-date postcard template or a customized flyer, Marlene is more than a speaker; she is a partner.
Meeting planners can depend on Marlene to be there on time. For out-of-town engagements, Marlene arrives the day before the program and stays the day of the program to visit with attendees. No worries about Marlene arriving ten minutes before stage time!
While other speakers rely on third-party communication, Marlene understands the need to build the relationship; therefore before the booking you will speak directly to Marlene to make sure the objectives are understood and the communication is clear.
Marlene's approach is based on life experience--her own journey of reinvention--as she shares her own insights, success, and personal challenges along the way. Marlene creatively bridges the gap between the personal and professional, between the physical and metaphysical and between boss and employee. No matter what the audience level, participants walk away energized and inspired, believing in what is possible for them personally and professionally. She gave us the tools that could be applied immediately, and incorporated the applied learning into the workshop. ~Vicki Thorne~NASA

Was I afraid they would judge me? Yes, but why?
Would they think.....
Gold digger? Boobs too big? 1 inch black roots poking out of the top of my bleach blond hair means I was born a (gasp) brunette? maybe. Bible she's carrying too new looking? "You know they say a battered and broken bible means an unfettered and unbroken life." Divorced unbiblically (another huge gasp)? Wedding ring too big? Wedding ring too small? Mark too old? Jenn too young?
The list could go on and on and on......
You may think this is ridiculous, but I've been dealing with MAJOR church hang-ups during my "post-traumatic divorce disorder". Though all of the above may seem ridiculous insecurities, this has unfortunately become the underlying thoughts I've had towards the body of believers called "The Church".
Now those who are hoping for a blog about my trip to the potty, my thoughts on "The Bachelor" or my love for Britney Spears....this isn't the blog for you. Just stop reading and come back tomorrow. I'm sure I will have something rude, crude and socially unacceptable for you then.
This blog isn't to bash the church I use to be a member of and because of that I'm not going to mention it's name. Although I am aware many of you know me personally and know the church I use to be a part of, even for you it's not meant for this purpose. Before, I get hate mail telling me to kiss off, ask how my brother and I are related (I still don't get it, so DON'T ASK) and tell me to embrace my feminist side (oh, wait that was another blog), let me explain:I do not have any ill-will towards the church as a whole, the individuals who are in leadership or the people who lovingly call this their church home.
It fact, before I start let me state the hard truth: I wasn't the ultimate dynamite, slap your mother she's that GREAT member of the church to begin with. To be honest, I kinda sucked at it.
Due to some fault of my own, during and after the divorce I was, in my own words, burned by the church. To give some of you a little history behind this story: Mark and I both went to the same church with our 1st spouses. Mark and I divorced about 8 months apart from each other. We did not know each other during our divorce, but had very similar experiences to the reaction we received from the church.
It is not my place to tell you Mark's personal experience in this, but I will tell you mine. Not to gossip, not to slander, but to sort out and explain the bitterness, mostly self-inflicted, that I allowed to build up towards church as a whole over the past two years. The bitterness, that God is slowly chipping away by showing me truth in the beauty, joy and commandment of belonging to a church body. What happened in my life two years ago....SUCKED. I mean, like, REALLY Sucked. It was soooo stinky icky that I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy (which happens to be Kevin Federline, but that's for another day). I became a huge disappointment to the people I loved... my family, my friends....my church. Some of the disappointment just, some not so just.
But, you go through something that it hard, you learn from it and maybe in your story, you can either a.) help others in a similar situations b.) helps others steer clear from it as if it were the bubonic plague c.) helps others grow in compassion towards those in these certain hard situations. I'm writing about this, because although I am blissfully, joyfully, ecstatically married to a wonderful man who has kissed all my bruises and scars, some of my wounds still exist and still show. My wound towards the church is sadly, one of the visible ones. And on really good days, I say to myself, "I've got this....I ain't wounded no more" (well maybe, not like that, but you catch my drift?) but on days like today, when I'm faced with taking a step forward and moving on in forgiveness not only in myself but in others, I trip over this stumbling block because of the lack of compassion that was shown towards me, when I was, as in the bible, the adulteress who fell in front of the well at the mercy of the Pharisees who were ready to cast their stones.
When I made the decision to leave my marriage, I was not contacted by anyone in the church. Now to clarify, I have a few friends that I made there and have maintained a friendship with; although it's somewhat different now. You know who you are, you read my blog and you few are one of the greatest gifts God gave me through the church. But, I was not contact by any leadership, previous leaders etc. I had NO problem with this. I was getting a divorce and didn't really want to hear from them (sidenote: this is usually the attitude of someone who KNOWS what they are doing is NOT the right thing).
Fast forward to 6 months later: I meet a man. He's tall, handsome, really smart, makes me laugh until I cry and doesn't judge me for my past yuckiness. I like him. I think he kinda likes me too. We learn we use to go to the same church, talk about it a little and move on. We have been dating 3 wks. He gets a call...it's one of the main pastors of the church we both use to attend. He wants to talk to him about....ME. Jennifer Robinson? He ask. Yes, I'm dating her. Is his reply.
Unbiblically divorced! Church discipline must be enforced! Shouldn't date that kind of girl. Do you know what she did to her husband? No? Well, let me tell you.I was humiliated. hurt. discouraged. weary. My dirty laundry...PLUS some, was aired out to a man I barely knew by a man who did not have the right. Who didn't know me; he didn't know my heart. All he knew was who's Daughter-In-Law I use to be. He judged me and wanted him to judge me, too. Thankfully, this man became my husband and defended my honor even during such an early stage in our relationship.
I felt like I could never step into that church again, even if I wanted to. What should be a home for the broken and weary became the place I wanted to walk across the street to avoid. And although, living in the bible belt, there are a million church within my reach....I believed once these other churches really knew me, maybe they would feel the way he did. Maybe they wouldn't want me either. Maybe they would be ashamed of me, too.
It's taken quite a while to believe in my heart that this isn't the way the church body would see me, and I've healed in this area through:
- my hometown church, who lovingly embraced me from the moment I walked in their doors two years ago, recently divorced,broken and defeated. This is a small church, that doesn't have millions of dollars at their finger tips, a counseling center, or a hundred plus staff. They don't have the resources so many do but what they do have is enough compassion, love, understanding and prayer for someone like me who needed it so desperately.
- The new church who I believe in my heart will lovingly adopt Mark and I into their church family and will walk with us as we grow together in our relationship with Christ, with each other and with fellow believers.
- My loving husband, who has shown me through simply the gift of himself, that I serve a loving, forgiving and COMPASSIONATE god. Who loves me enough to give me another chance.
One of the biggest and greatest gifts that have come out of the heartbreak of divorce, is that is has taught me compassion. It's really hard to be compassionate when you've never been through something. You just can't relate. I believe God will use me and this experience to show compassion to someone who needs it as desperately as I once did.

Born in a much more rural area than my current abode of St. Louis Missouri, it would be more accurate to say I grew up as a bit of a country person. Chicken farming,
off-roading, greenhouse planting, sports… these all fall into my life experiences right
next to video games, anime, and reading books. (Although I don't read much fantasy anymore). My label is tricky; I am not so set into one genre of being or the other…
Nerd?.. Sure!..
Jock?.. At times!…
Redneck?.. Unfortunately, as my cousin loves to tease… also apt!
City-slicker?… Slowly becoming!
Who I am is multi-facet; I am full of different experiences, different walks of life that have been beholden to me… Despite all these labels though, one shines through much stronger than all the rest…
I am currently attending Full Sail University for an online Bachelors degree in Game Design, and spend my spare time focusing on promoting my personal brand for the sake of breaking into the games industry either as an Indie or for a Studio… And every now and again find the spare time to play some games!
My growing technical skills include:

Phatawhompus – a Where?House event for Melbourne Music Week
Posted by Kristian Hatton
14. Nov, 2012
|November 22, 2012
|6:00 am
Phatawhompus will present cutting-edge, funkasaurus electronica to the Melbourne public on 22 November. It's one of many events in Melbourne Music Week, and represents a flavour of music appropriate in these hi-tech days and times.
Many in Australia are familiar with artists like Californian Dave Tipper (who headlined the Rainbow Serpent Festival this year), New Zealand future funk beatsmiths Opiuo and Spoonbill, and Americans Eskmo and Beats Antique (who combine Middle Eastern and carnival aesthetics/performance (ie. bellydancing, fire twirling).
Phatawhompus is one part of Where?House, which is a lead-on from last year's Kubik, which had acts like DJ Krush in an arrangement of glowing cubes of different colours. This year, Where?House have turned the Argus Building (on the corner of Elizabeth and Latrobe streets in the CBD) into a veritable wonderland of colour, light and sound, and making the warehouse dance experience accessible to a broader public. The Argus building is part of Melbourne's older architectural landscape and its cavernous depths have been made over especially by the team of Where?House for the festivities.
Where?House isn't the product of a new cultural movement, but a decades-old history in Melbourne of old-school jungle/DnB and techno parties from the early 90s. In this respect, Where?House are paying tribute to an unspoken history in Melbourne.
For tickets and further info on this event, go to where-house.com.au
Where?House will be starting on the 16th of November, and going through until the 25th of November.

EAST HANOVER TWP. Hanover Park High School senior Cristina Crosta of East Hanover is the Hanover Park November 2001 Student of the Month according to Principal John Kirchberger who made the announcement on Thursday, Nov. 1. "Cristina Crosta, our November Student of the Month, is really the quintessential school leader," said Kirchberger. "Her leadership and dedication have been recognized by her peers who have elected her as their class president for four consecutive years and named her captain of the cheerleaders. Her teacher nominators have described her as someone who is always positive, upbeat, reliable, and who always has a smile and a kind word. Cristina continually promotes school spirit. She spends an exhaustive amount of time organizing and arranging activities throughout the school year. She is a true Student of the Month."
Crosta is a member of the Hanover Park Chapter of the National Honor Society. She is ranked in the top 25 percent of the Class of 2002 with a grade point average of 3.62.
Crosta is president of the Hanover Park Class of 2002 and has been president since her freshman year. She has also served as Hanover Park Student Council treasurer in her sophomore year and council secretary in her junior year. This year, as in her freshman year, she also is a representative to the council.
She is Hanover Park Cheerleading captain and has been a cheerleader for four years. This year, she is vice president of the Hanover Park Varsity Club. She played junior varsity softball in freshman and sophomore years, is a four-year member of Hanover Park's ERASE (End Racism And Sexism Everywhere) club and is a peer-counselor.
Crosta was a nominee for last summer's American Legion Girls State and represented Hanover Park at the statewide Hugh O'Brien Youth Leadership Forum in her sophomore year. In freshman year, Crosta joined Key Club, sang in Women's Choir and acted in the spring musical.
Her total school involvement sums up her best Hanover Park moments. "Being involved in the whole school and getting to know everyone makes it fun to come here everyday," she said. "For instance, I really enjoy cheering, but the response from the fans makes it all the more exciting. Our class has won Spirit Week Competitions for two years in a row and that is a big part of the enthusiasm that our class has everyone getting into it for the past four years. It's the big picture. Finally, I've really enjoyed being president because I like being in a leadership position and the opportunity to make choices."
"In retrospect, Mr. Brown (Hanover Park Assistant Principal William Brown), the Student Council advisor, would have to count as my favorite HP person," continued Crosta. "His is a cool role. He's the school disciplinarian and has to make sure that things are running smoothly. But his other side is advisor to the Student Council, and he gets to interact with the student leaders. He is very hard working and is always there for you. You know he cares about you and is a great guy. As to college, I'm exploring Lehigh University, Penn State, Rutgers University, Fairfield, St. Joseph's, Hofstra, Seton Hall and Montclair University. I'm very interested in accounting and someday I'd like to work in accounting for a l arge financial firm. I like math and have always been good at it. Actually, one of my favorite Hanover Park classes was Algebra II with Mrs. Lutz (Hanover Park Mathematics teacher Kimberly Lutz). My other all-time favorite was Physical Education with Coach Liberato (Hanover Park Physical Education teacher and Head Foot ball Coach John Liberato)," she said.
Crosta, daughter of Anna Maria Crosta, uses her cheerleading talent and natural affability to teach others. She is a four-year advisor to the East Hanover PAL Junior Hornet Cheerleaders.
"Cristina does not limit herself to Hanover Park," said her Guidance Counselor Daniel Rendine. "In addition to her coaching young cheerleaders, she holds down three part time positions all of which emphasize her forte which is working with people. In school, on the field, or at work, if someone needs encouragement, she is the first one there."

Hiding In Plain Sight
I've been talking about this "Big Deadline" that's been hanging over my head for a while now. Basically, it was a desktop publishing project for one of my son's high school sports teams that had an ultra-short deadline this year because the big race is always held the day before Easter, which comes a lot earlier than usual this year. It was finally sent to the printers earlier this week, and it's as though a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders!
Throw in a middle-of the-night trip to the ER about a week and a half ago, and you can imagine the fun I've been having. First, though, I'm happy to say that I'm fine. The root cause of the trip to the ER is still under investigation, but the docs tell me it's nothing that I or anyone else needs to be concerned about.
The other thing I'm happy about is that I was able to maintain the spirit of my weight management efforts, even if I wasn't on plan 100% of the time. I wisely, IMHO, gave myself permission to suspend my exercise after the trip to the hospital, through the publishing deadline and some meetings that have keep me busy through to the end of this week. So today, it was back to exercising.
Anyway, now it's back to business as usual, dealing with the day to day challenges of weight maintenance and staying on top of the blog.
The Count: Snooze = +51, Exercise = +65

Verizon's droid marketing campaign
Google/Verizon have followed Bing's lead in the go big or go home with their new $100 million marketing campaign for Droid.When Microsoft launched Bing with their $100 million marketing campaign across the world agencies were being constantly critical for the big budget, not much seems to have been said from any agencies yet about Google/Verizon's massive campaign.What makes this interesting is that this is just for the US market which demonstrates how seriously they want to win market share off the Apple iPhone. How much would they spend if they launched a worldwide campaign?
The blanket $100 million campaign will likely so big that you cannot escape it online or offline if you live in the US, watch US television or visit US web properties. The initial "anti-iphone" campaign appears almost to have an evil hint closer to a Skynet device used to take over the world. According to the AdAge article much of the budget will be spent before the end of the year. Being halfway through November this is a direct pitch at the Christmas sales and maybe some change left over for post-Christmas sales.It appears that this Android campaign started on the 6th November, first covered by TechCrunch in the image below, where they added a link to the frontpage of Google.com. This is a massive exposure for the new Verizon/Motorola phone as Google has around 2,500,000,000 visits a month according to Compete.com site statics for Google.This homepage link leads Google visitors to a Droid campaign landing page which interestingly does not feature their partners logos but do mention them by name. Even with the multiple step process to find out more it means that Verizon will likely not get too much of a free ride, but the sheer volume would make up for if it meant a lower conversion rates.The Droid landing page has 3 features that they believe are the key benefits of the device:
- Search by Voice
- Quick Search Box
- Speak and Find Your Way
- 5 Megapixel camera
- Hi-Res Camera
- Speech Recognition
- Multitasking
- Tunes
- Turn-by-turn navigation
- Runs Andriod 2.0
- Notification Panel

Gravity Dam Response Including Interaction Effectsby J. L. Humar, Carleton Univ, Ottawa, Canada,
R. Chandrashaker, Carleton Univ, Ottawa, Canada,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Mechanics Computing in 1990's and Beyond
The seismic response of 2D gravity dam-reservoir-foundation including the wave absorption effect along the reservoir bed is analyzed in frequency domain using substructure approach. The infinite reservoir is modeled by boundary element method using static fundamental solution, in conjunction with a 1D finite element representation of the infinite field. The dam is discretized by finite elements. The foundation soil, idealized as semi-infinite elastic half plane, is modeled by boundary elements.

Patrick Ewing got a critical pickup for his first recruiting class as the head coach of the Georgetown Hoyas. South Dakota transfer Trey Dickerson committed to the program on Sunday after a weekend of visits with the program. Dickerson made the announcement on Twitter.
Thanking the man upstairs for all the blessings. Georgetown Hoyas Commit ! pic.twitter.com/GPxNrgUfcC
— Trey Dickerson (@Dat_boy_TD) May 7, 2017
Last season while playing for the Coyotes, Dickerson — a 6-foot-1 guard from Queens, NY — led the team in assists and was third in scoring, averaging 10.4 points and 2.8 assists in 22.3 minutes per game. South Dakota claimed its first Summit League regular season title.
Dickerson was unknown coming out of high school in 2014 when he committed to Iowa. He later transferred from the Hawkeyes in favor of South Dakota. Now after sitting out one season and playing for one season at South Dakota, he will be eligible to play immediately at Georgetown as a graduate transfer.
He will need to improve his outside shooting, making just 33.3 percent of three pointers last season. He has a uncanny ability to drive to the lane with a quick first step. He has a good range of vision that could improve playing around an upgrade of talent.
Georgetown is searching to round out their first full roster under newly hired Ewing. Their search goes on as it's unclear on Ewing's coaching staff. Since being hired in April, Georgetown has lost top-recruit Tremont Waters, who was granted his release shortly after Ewing's hire. Also, Akoy Agau plans to transfer as well as sparingly used Trey Mourning.

There is a very rich crustacean fauna at Lembeh. I was there in January. Every crab we saw seemed to be pregnant.
Porcelain crabs are not a true crab. They are more closely related to Squat Lobsters. You can see the feeding basket with which it captures its food. It lives on giant anemones.
Moulting crab shows the old shell being discarded. This act of nature is one of the most wonderful sights for divers.
Life on a Soft Coral bush can include beautiful Soft Coral Porcellain crabs like this one called Lissoporcellana nakasonei.
