Ronnie Hilton [real name Adrian Hill] (1926–2001), singer, was born Adrian Hill on 28 January 1926 at 65 North Road, Kingston upon Hull, east Yorkshire, the sixth child of John William Hill, an able seaman in the merchant navy and later an aircraft worker, and his wife, Sarah Elizabeth, née Morgan. He attended Paisley Street School in Hull, where he sang in the school choir.
Hilton left school at fourteen and joined his father at the Blackburn aircraft factory in Leeds as an apprentice fitter. In 1942 he joined the Gordon Highlanders, serving in both Europe and the UK during the Second World War. Towards the end of his army service he served in the officers' mess and sang with the regimental band at social events. He was demobbed in 1947 and returned to Leeds, where he resumed his apprenticeship as a fitter, under the interrupted apprenticeship scheme, at a sewing machine factory. On 24 April 1948 he married Joan Lilian Conyers (1926–1986), a typist; she was the daughter of Harry Conyers, a joiner from Leeds. They had two daughters and a son.
Hilton sang regularly in Leeds working men's clubs with various local bands and, in 1951, he entered a singing competition at the Shaftesbury Cinema in Leeds, which he subsequently won. The prize was a month's residency with the Johnny Addlestone Band at the Starlight Roof, a factory social club at Hepton's clothiers in Leeds. He eventually stayed with the band for three years, during which he made several appearances with the BBC Northern Variety Orchestra.
In 1953 Hilton was asked by a local songwriter to record a demonstration disc, which was sent to the publishers Keith Prowse Music in London. The recording was heard by Wally Ridley, the influential recording manager at HMV Records, who signed him to a recording contract and suggested the name change to Ronnie Hilton. With his light operatic voice he became one of a group of home-grown UK balladeers, including the contemporary Hull chart topper David Whitfield, who were signed by UK record companies to compete with American singing stars such as Eddie Fisher, Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, and Perry Como.
Hilton's first record for HMV, in 1954, 'Hey There', was not a hit, but his second release, 'I Still Believe', reached number three on the charts in December 1954 and was the first of fifteen top thirty hits between 1954 and 1959. Often recording songs that had been hits in the USA, his further chart entries included 'Veni Vidi Vici', 'A Blossom Fell', 'The Yellow Rose of Texas', 'Stars Shine In Your Eyes' and 'Young and Foolish'. In May 1956 he had his only UK number one with 'No Other Love', taken from the Oscar Rodgers and Richard Hammerstein musical Me and Juliet. Originally a US hit for Perry Como, it remained at the top of the UK charts for six weeks and was also a top ten hit in America. Subsequent chart entries included 'Who Are We', 'Around the World', and 'Magic Moments'. His last hit of the decade came in August 1959 with 'The Wonder of You', later recorded by Elvis Presley.
During this time Hilton became one of the biggest singing stars in the UK, appeared in three royal command variety performances, and performed at sell-out concert tours, summer seasons, and pantomimes for impresarios such as Lew Grade and Bernard Delfont. He made frequent guest appearances on radio and TV, and presented two radio series of the Ronnie Hilton Show for the BBC Northern Region. In 1957 he sang at the Festival of British Song in an attempt to represent the UK at the first Eurovision song contest, finishing the runner-up to the singer Patricia Bredin, also from Hull.
Hilton's hits dried up as rock and roll, skiffle, jazz, and beat music began to dominate the charts in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and musical taste and fashion changed. However, he made a surprise return to the charts in 1964 with 'Don't Let the Rain Come Down (Crooked Little Man)' and then, in 1965, with the Christmas novelty release 'A Windmill in Old Amsterdam', written by Myles Rudge and Ted Dicks. The song became a stalwart of the BBC's Junior Choice radio programme and a perennial children's favourite. It eventually sold over a million copies and became the song with which Hilton was most associated.
After his chart career was over Hilton remained in demand for cabaret performances and pantomime, especially in the north of England, where he lived most of his life. TV appearances in the 1970s included Morecambe and Wise and The Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club, as well as two series of Hilton's Half Hour made for Scottish TV. In 1980 he presented the series Brass in Concert for Yorkshire Television. A passionate Leeds United supporter, during the Don Revie era of the 1960s and 1970s Hilton recorded songs such as 'Leeds United Calypso', 'Glory Glory Leeds United', and 'The Tale of Billy Bremner'. He toured with 1950s nostalgia concert shows, featuring contemporaries such as Russ Conway, Clinton Ford, and Ruby Murray, and, in the early 1990s, presented Sounds of the Fifties on BBC Radio 2. In 1989 he was awarded a gold medal for services to popular music by the British Academy of Song Composers.
Hilton's first wife, Joan, died in 1986. After her death, he was reunited with the dancer Christine Miles [Westoll] (b. 1945), the daughter of Walter Arnold Harold Farrance, kitchen designer; her previous marriage had been dissolved. They had had an affair in the mid-1960s, which had produced a son. After resuming their relationship, they married on 21 January 1989 in Leeds.
Hilton suffered his first stroke in 1976. Further strokes in the 1990s brought his forty-year show business career to an end. He died on 20 February 2001 at Ersham House nursing home, Ersham Road, Hailsham, east Sussex. In December 2002 the Ronnie Hilton White Rose Memorial Garden was opened, adjacent to the David Whitfield Memorial Garden, on Hull's Freetownway.

Resistant hypertension is high blood pressure that does not respond to treatment. Specifically, resistant hypertension is defined as blood pressure that remains elevated above treatment goals despite administration of an optimal three-drug regimen that includes a diuretic. Because some cases of high blood pressure are difficult to treat, and may require a combination of multiple drugs before control is established, high blood pressure cannot be called "resistant" until this three-drug combination therapy has failed.

How is Resistant Hypertension Diagnosed?

Resistant hypertension is diagnosed when the blood pressure continues to be elevated despite trying combination therapy with three drugs. The standard guidelines state that:

 Proper blood pressure measurement technique must be used

The size of the blood pressure cuff should be double checked for accuracy

The blood pressure readings must be recorded on two separate occasions

What Causes Resistant Hypertension?

There are many things that can cause resistant hypertension, and proper medical testing is required to investigate each of these potential causes. The three most common causes of resistant hypertension are:

Patient noncompliance with treatment

 Secondary hypertension (Usually from overactive adrenal glands)

Fluid retention (usually expansion from kidney failure)

Additionally, it is important to make sure that what appears to be resistant hypertension isn't actually pseudohypertension or white coat hypertension.

The most common cause of resistant hypertension and the most difficult to treat is what medical researchers commonly refer to as "patient noncompliance." The term "patient noncompliance" refers to instances where patients are not adherent to the prescribed treatment but is not meant to imply the patient is always to blame. To the contrary, most cases of "noncompliance" actually indicate that circumstances not in the patient's control have made following the recommended therapy either impractical or intolerable.

For example, patients are sometimes placed in situations where the recommended medication is too expensive or the pharmacy is very far away, or doctor appointments are difficult to keep. More commonly, prescribed medications may have side effects, like a headache or upset stomach, of sufficient strength that the patient will stop taking the prescribed medicine to avoid suffering them. When side effects occur, the doctor usually changes to a medicine that is better tolerated. But what happens if you've tried all the different medicines and the only one that works is the one that gives you the worst upset stomach? Clearly, situations like this require a great deal of thoughtful problem solving.

What is the Treatment for Resistant Hypertension?

Because resistant hypertension is usually the result of some underlying issue, treatment focuses on correcting this underlying issue. For example, in cases where the resistant hypertension is caused by patient noncompliance, doctors will work with the patient to determine the root cause of the noncompliance and to alleviate it. In situations where the body fluid balance is abnormal, usually as a result of kidney disease, measures such as dialysis might be necessary. If a hormone imbalance is the cause of resistant hypertension, then treatment efforts are focused on correcting the patient's hormone profile.

Yesterday, Michigan – and with it, America – was sent into yet another racial downfall as sides clashed over the 6-2 Supreme Court upholding of the state's affirmative action ban. Not so shockingly, leading the crusade against the ruling is none other than Al Sharpton who has recently demanded blacks to, "mobilize immediately."
The ruling covers colleges specifically but isn't allowing racial discrimination to run rampant as some may have you think. Michigan has what is called the Proposal 2 that strictly prohibits colleges not only from taking race into consideration when determining acceptance, but bans them from even asking potential student's races.
(See also: Liberal Spouts Off False Facts: "I'm A Stupid Sh*t")
Of course, as the Left would have it, this has been nothing short of blatant racism being enacted so that "whitey" can continue keeping them down. Shanta Driver, national chairperson of By Any Means Necessary (BAMN), expressed, "Today's Supreme Court decision upholding the ban on affirmative action in Michigan is a racist decision."
She is not alone in her sentiment as tensions continue to rise across the nation over the decision. Always there to stoke the fire is Rev. Al Sharpton who just couldn't pass up an opportunity to race bait a bit in order to ensure his own job security.
Sharpton has since issued a call to arms:
"The Supreme Court decision upholding the state of Michigan's ban of using race as a factor in affirmative action is a devastating blow to the civil rights community. The ramifications of this will be far reaching and could tie us up in endless battles. We must mobilize immediately for state referendums to counter this decision to protect the ongoing battle to redress the historic needed repairs to racial discrimination."
This wouldn't be the first time that Al Sharpton has been one of the sole parties responsible for creating civil unrest. Just look at what happened when Trayvon Martin died – leading the way with his money grubbing pal, Jesse Jackson, the two were able to successfully ignite a countrywide controversy.
Although Jesse Jackson has yet to weigh in on the matter (and its only a matter of time), he has spoken on the issue in the past. Back in 2012, he spoke about banning affirmative action and actually likened it to ethnic cleansing.
(See also: Families Lining Up For Racist Democrat's $100K Offer)
Now, here's what he actually said:
"To make it race neutral is a kind of ethnic cleansing. In America, racial justice matters."
We all know that certain blacks love to lean on the racist crutch when losing an argument, but this is so blatantly transparent, the words of Jesse Jackson couldn't be interpreted as anything but racist. Effectively saying that blacks will naturally have a harder time gaining entry into a college or university, he makes it clear that there has to be some form of racist equalizer in order to level the playing fields.
Suggesting that Universities allow lesser-qualified blacks in is a double standard at best – just imagine if whites were to try and demand that. This isn't necessarily old news either as recent Michigan University hopefuls have taken to protesting after being denied do to their less than satisfactory ACT scores.
Of course, despite everyone falling below that mark receiving a denial letter, because those students were black, the eligibility requirements have now been deemed racist. This sort of mob mentality is spreading like wildfire, and with the likes of Al Sharpton feeding it for financial gain, the mindset is becoming increasingly popular.
In that, many are joining forces as they consider protests and riots in order to achieve their agenda through physical means if necessary. Just take a look at what the lawyer representing BAMN, George Washington, had to say:
"We're going to have to take the gloves off. This Supreme Court is systematically setting about undoing the gains of the Civil Rights Movement, so we're gonna have to return to the methods of sit-ins and protests, and strikes and the things which won it in the first place."
(See also: Liberal Hot Head Explodes During Patriotic Parade)
It appears as though, through another failure to understand, many are seeking to fight on principle. Unknowingly being fraudulently pumped up for nothing more than fame and money, it appears as though blacks are blindly being led to the slaughter. Surely to be cut down on any front, it's truly nauseating to watch as an unbiased observer as an elite puppet master manipulates an easily explained ruling.
What do you guys think – is enforcing the ban on affirmative action racist, or the exact opposite as it strives to leave race out? Let us know by leaving a comment below.

Cabaret (Bob Fosse, 1972)
As I have said before in this blog, I prefer musicals created originally for the movies, like the Warner Bros. films with the kaleidoscopic routines of Busby Berkeley, the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers movies, or the sublime Singin' in the Rain (Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly, 1952), and not the musicals like West Side Story (Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise, 1961) or My Fair Lady (George Cukor, 1964), that were translated to film from the stage. My admiration for Cabaret would seem to be an exception to that rule, except that when Fosse became director, he jettisoned the book that had been written by Joe Masteroff for the 1966 Broadway musical and went back to the source, Christopher Isherwood's 1939 The Berlin Stories. Jay Presson Allen had been commissioned to write the screenplay, but Hugh Wheeler (credited as "research consultant") heavily revised what she had written. Fosse also dropped many of the songs by John Kander and Fred Ebb, though he added new ones by them: "Money, Money" and "Mein Herr," along with one of their older songs not from the Broadway version, "Maybe This Time." And he made the significant decision to keep the musical numbers confined to the Kit Kat Klub stage -- a touch of cinematic realism that seems essential to a story set in Berlin during the rise of the Nazis. The result is a musical essentially created (or at least re-created) for the movies. It received 10 Oscar nominations and won eight of them, including awards for Minnelli, Grey, and Fosse, as well as for Geoffrey Unsworth's cinematography. The only categories in which it lost were best picture and best adapted screenplay, which went to The Godfather and its screenwriters, Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola.

Fugro has introduced a new service to its range of satellite positioning systems. Oceanstar™ is an onboard decision support system that has been developed to improve navigational safety and reduce the operating costs of commercial vessels such as cruise ships, container ships, ferries, ro-ro vessels, bulk carriers and tankers.
The Oceanstar high performance navigation and manoeuvring system enhances navigation integrity, berthing safety and ship energy efficiency management and helps to reduce a vessel's environmental footprint. During berthing manoeuvres it provides essential information including approach speeds, rate of turn and even distances to the berth. In addition to supporting safer berthing, Oceanstar can reduce a cruise ship's berthing process by up to 30 minutes each time, allowing passengers more time ashore.
The new decision support system incorporates approved and "Wheel Mark" certified functions such as differential GNSS (DGNSS), speed and distance measurement device (SDMD), transmitting heading device (THD) and rate of turn indicator (ROT). The system can be tailored to particular requirements and market environments to ensure a cost effective, fit-for-purpose solution.
To assist with navigation in confined waters, and based on Fugro's high accuracy GNSS solutions, the system calculates accurate heading, rate of turn, ground speed ahead/astern and speed athwart ships at the bow and stern, as well as distances. The information can be viewed on system displays that can be positioned anywhere on the bridge including the conning position and bridge wings. Alternatively, the functions can be embedded for display in compatible integrated bridge systems.
"Vessels of all types, and in particular passenger cruise ships and container ships, are becoming ever larger," says Leif Morten By, Product Manager for Oceanstar. "Larger vessels mean less room for manoeuvring, so assistance with accurate quay and terminal approach information can be crucial. Our Oceanstar system provides exactly this type of information to captains and pilots during berthing manoeuvres."

WARSAW (Reuters) - Film director Andrzej Wajda, best known for chronicling Poland's struggle for democracy during half a century of communist rule, has died at the age of 90.
Wajda won international acclaim for "Man of Iron" (1981), which tells the story of the anti-Communist Solidarity movement, and the film's subversive predecessor "Man of Marble" (1977).
Fans, film-makers and political leaders rushed online to pay tribute after his death was announced late on Sunday.
"We all stem from Wajda. We looked at Poland and at ourselves through him. And we understood better. Now it will be more difficult," Poland's former prime minister and the current head of the European Council, Donald Tusk, said on social media.
Communist authorities censored the "Man of Marble", angered by its portrayal of political corruption in the early 1950s Stalinist period, shown through the fall from grace of a Stakhanovite bricklayer.
"Man of Iron," which portrays the 1980 strikes that led to the creation of the Solidarity union and the fall of communism, was awarded the Palme d'Or at the Cannes festival.
It was his most overtly political film, made in a flowering of openness after Solidarity's initial successes. When martial law was imposed in late 1981 the authorities banned the film and tried to prevent it being nominated for an Oscar.
In 2000, Wajda received an Academy Honorary Award in recognition of five decades of work, the first eastern European director to win the lifetime achievement Oscar.
Wajda's films also won a Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival and four nominations for Academy Awards, among other prizes.
"He was one of the greatest Polish artists, one of the best-known in the world. Poland was his passion," film director and head of the Polish Filmmakers' Association Jacek Bromski told TVN24 broadcaster.
"For us, for the community he was a pillar of strength, everybody gathered around him. He was always present in the life of the film-making community, he was a mentor, a paragon."
Wajda's last film, "Afterimage", a biopic about avant-garde painter Wladyslaw Strzeminski, tells a story of an artist struggling to overcome the pressures of Stalinist dogma on art shortly after World War Two.
Wajda, who spent decades using subtle cinematic language and hidden meanings to avoid overt clashes with the communist authorities, has drawn parallels between Strzeminski's efforts and the current conservative government's policy of promoting "national culture".
Since winning power, the right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) government has announced plans for a major public relations campaign, including a possible film venture to promote patriotic themes and bolster the country's image abroad.
"We are facing a moment when the authorities are trying to influence art," Wajda, who has criticised PiS on several occasions, told the local PAP news agency in September.
"'National art' is being discussed, what is art and what isn't. I made a film about the past which says that influencing art is not the role of a government. Artists should do art, not the authorities."
"Afterimage" has been submitted as Poland's candidate for best Foreign Language Oscar.
"He never considered the risks," said Krystyna Janda who won Best Actress at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival for her role in "Interrogation", a 1982 film about false imprisonment in Stalinist Poland.
"He made films which he thought were necessary. The censors harassed him, he was taken off shoots to speak with them. Sometimes he agreed to what they wanted, but later re-inserted scenes he had removed. The film was always what was important," she told TVN24 broadcaster.
After the fall of communism in 1989, Wajda was ignored by audiences who preferred U.S. blockbusters.
He regained prominence with films such as "Walesa" (2013), another biopic, focusing on the pro-democracy Solidarity icon, as well as Oscar-nominated "Katyn" (2007), a grim tale about 15,000 Polish officers and professionals - including Wajda's father - who were massacred by Soviet secret police in 1940.
Wajda, who was in hospital for several days before his death, will be buried in the southern Polish city of Krakow where he sometimes lived.

Once you've mastered this versatile veggie, you can turn any weeknight dinner into a vibrant, satisfying meal.
While it's great grilled, roasted, and boiled as well, we love sautéed asparagus for its crisp-tender texture (which you can achieve in just six to seven minutes). Save any extras for tossing into omelets or quiches, layering onto a goat cheese pizza, or tossing into pasta. Asparagus can also be processed into pesto (which tastes great with grilled steak!). When choosing asparagus at the grocery store or farmer's market, look for firm, bright stalks with plump, tightly closed tips (fading color is a sign of deterioration). The diameter of an asparagus spear indicates when it was harvested, and both thick and thin spears can be sweet and tender, as long as they're fresh. Thick spears are generally harvested at the beginning of the season—the stalks get thinner as the season wears on. Uncooked asparagus will stay fresh for three to four days in the refrigerator, and the key is to keep it cool and damp. Store spears upright in a container with the stems wading in an inch of water, then cover loosely with a plastic bag. Easier still: Wrap the ends in moist paper towels and drop the bundle in a plastic bag. Green isn't the only shade asparagus comes in, either. The much rarer white asparagus has a milder flavor and a softer texture. Purple asparagus, which is sometimes available at farmer's markets, is slightly sweeter and more tender than green asparagus, and turns dark green when cooked because the purple pigment is destroyed by heat.
What You Need
- 1 large bunch (about 1½ pounds) asparagus
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Lemon slices for serving
Follow These Steps
- Snap the tough, woody ends off the asparagus. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add spears to pan and sauté for 6-7 minutes, or until just tender. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh lemon slices.

Xpress-Mosel. Multi-solver, multi-problem, multi-model, multi-node modeling and problem solving. Xpress-Mosel, a commercial product since 2001 (originally developed by Dash Optimization, now FICO), provides a complete environment for developing, testing and deploying optimization applications. Development and analysis of optimization models written with the Mosel language is aided by the graphical environment Xpress-IVE, and tools such as the Mosel debugger and profiler. The Mosel libraries provide the neccessary functionality for a tight integration into existing (C/Java/.NET) applications for model deployment. par This chapter explains the basics of the Mosel language that are required to use the software as a modeling and solution reporting interface to standard matrix-based solvers. It also gives an overview of Mosel's programming functionality. The open, modular design of Mosel makes it possible to extend the Mosel language according to one's needs, adding solvers, data connectors, graphics or system functionality. The second part of this chapter presents possibilities for problem decomposition and concurrent solving from a modeling point of view, with example implementations in Mosel that show handling of multiple models, multiple problems within a model, and as a new feature, distributed computation using a heterogeneous network of computers.

SALT LAKE CITY -- The Mountain West Conference will not expand further to include either Utah State or Hawaii as a full member.
The conference board of directors on Tuesday issued a statement saying the configuration already established works best going forward.
The announcement came at the conclusion of its annual meeting in Las Vegas, where topics included television contracts, membership and efforts to change the Bowl Championship Series structure.
The Mountain West will have eight members as of July, with BYU and Utah departing and Boise State joining current members TCU, New Mexico, UNLV, San Diego State, Colorado State, Wyoming and Air Force.
In July 2012, TCU departs and Fresno and Nevada join in all sports. Hawaii joins the MWC in football only, while its other teams will compete in the Big West.

The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) Section 308 provides for noncitizen national based on birth or parentage in unincorporated outlying possessions of the United States Nationals are not citizens of the United States but may apply for naturalization under a special provision covered under INA Section 325. Nationals who are not citizens cannot vote or hold elected office. Nationals may reside and work in the United States without restrictions. Nationals are also eligible to apply for citizenship if they take up residence in a State. Consult with an attorney.

A Puerto Rican citizen is a citizen of the United States. Therefore as a United States citizen he can petition for his/her spouse provided that he/she can establish that the marriage was a bona fide one and that the non-USC spouse has entered the country legally and has proof of such legal entry. A final issue is that the USC/petitioning spouse will need to demonstrate that he/she can support the non USC spouse at 125% of the poverty level by filing an Affidavit of Support and supporting documents. I would seek out competent immigration counsel to file the proper documents --I-130, I-485, G-325A, I-765 and all supporting documents. Good luck!

Preteen ministry is perfectly perched—in the middle of the learning progression between elementary and teenager. It truly is an emerging ministry. We're perfectly perched to make a difference in our students' lives and in the direction of our ministry. This perfect perch, however, isn't completely perfect. Winds of change can be precarious. Lack of resources make for shaky limbs. We've been keeping an eye out for resources that can help steady the perch and give encouragement in the winds of change.
There have been many conversations about what to call students in the fourth, fifth, and sixth grade range. At fourfivesix, we prefer to call them preteens. Others call them tweens. We've toyed with postkids. We like students, too, but that's too broad. Whatever the terminology, they're at a unique stage. They're no longer kids and they're not quite teens. This provides great opportunities for us. We can and should be an interested part of children's ministry. We also can and should be an interested part of student ministry. Perching on this fence means we should listen and learn from both arenas. We're part of a perfect ministry for helping students make the giant leap from children's ministry to student ministry. If we're doing our job well, there shouldn't be the big dip in attendance in junior high.
Know where your students are coming from and going to. Study both worlds. (Tell your pastor you need double the conference budget for this reason!) We in preteen ministry are blessed because we can benefit from both worlds. We can also be a benefit to both worlds.
How can we do this, though? If you missed the Preteen Leaders Conference in Indiana in April, go to the website to find some cool resources. Children's Pastors' Conference, KidMin, and Youth Specialties are all offering great sessions at their conferences this year, specifically focused on preteen ministry. (There are undoubtedly more conferences, but these are the ones we know about.) Check out their websites to see all of the opportunities! Go with your co-workers from either children's or student ministries. Engage in conversations to learn more about the kids and students at your church, as well as build relationships with key people who will be sending or receiving your students.
SuperStart! is a fantastic opportunity where you can join your preteens for a two-day faith experience that will be the highlight of their year. If you haven't checked this out, you should. It's designed with preteens in mind and will do much to grow your students and your ministry. They have an easy-to-use, informative website that will get you excited.
While there are not the vast resources for preteen specific ministry as there are for children's or student ministries, both of these worlds provide great print and online resources. Ask your co-workers for their recommendations. There are pioneers in preteen ministry who provide great resources, too. Have you checked out the fourfivesix.org or preteenministry.net websites? There's plenty of info there. There are some fantastic blogs about preteen ministry, also. Check out jcisonline.com or mattmo.org. And, don't forget to browse the curriculum websites, too. Reading is always a good idea. You're doing it right now! Kuddos to you! There's great info in every KidzMatter Magazine issue on every page. Do your Google search to discover even more print and online resources.
The Association for Middle Level Education (AMLE) has done some great research and posted it on their website. Look especially at their page called "This We Believe." It contains an excellent summary of lots of research they've done. Two of my current favorite books are Jesus Centered Youth Ministry by Rick Lawrence (just re-released and updated) and Artificial Maturity by Tim Elmore.
If you love preteens and your ministry, join the movement! Perching is great, but soaring is a whole new level … and so much more thrilling! Attend a conference and talk to one of the presenters about how you can become a catalyst. Join one of the conversations about preteen ministry online. Listen, learn, and contribute. Return to your perch when you need to. Reflect on how blessed we are to be part of this fabulous, caught-in-the-middle, life-changing ministry. Collect new resources. Network with some new friends. Rest. Spend time with God. Then, take off again. We have an almost perfect perch, a completely perfect God, and a pretty perfect moment in time.

I am likely going to implement OpenDNS within a month here if things go as expected. I have played with it a little but not a ton. My question is this:
If I turn on OpenDNS and set it to block Youtube.Com, and the owner decides he wants access to it, then is it granular enough to allow him access only? Is this part of a certain package perhaps? I did not see the setting in basic, but without this granularity, its not going to work out for me here.

You could set his client to use a different DNS service.
Apr 22, 2010 at 8:47 UTC
yes, but then we wind up having access to everything. I think what I may have to do is this:
Since my firewall does exceptions and can block sites, I can block it there and add an exception for the boss, but unblock it on OpenDNS (whitelist). This would allow it to get to the firewall, and still be blocked for everyone, except those int eh exception list. I was just hoping it was built in somewhere. Can I use OpenDNS basic at work, or do I need to pay for Deluxe or Enterprise for this privilege?
Apr 22, 2010 at 8:48 UTC
The free version is quite simplistic and doesn't have that functionality. Blocked Page bypass is an upcoming feature in the Deluxe paid for version and an existing feature in the enterprise version. It lets you allow on a per user basis.
However as Jacob says, you can just over ride the DNS settings on his NIC to point to another dns. If you are using OpenDNS as a forwarder on your DNS server, I would also stick local server addresses into his hosts file just in case. But this method is all or nothing. He would also have free access to all the other stuff as well as just youtube!
Otherwise, you could use Untangle rather than Open DNS and set up a bypass rule for his IP address (needs to be static) or pay for the AD integration and Policy Manager (both paid for apps) and set a policy up for his login. That way would be the preferred way as you can just let him access youtube and all the other stuff is blocked.
Apr 22, 2010 at 8:52 UTC
Thanks for the posts guys, but I think the cheaper route (and fairly simplistic) is the firewall rule I mentioned above as it does filtering, but not the way I would prefer. Thanks

I don't feel right giving myself a best answer. Happy to get some advice, so I will issue it. If its an issue I cannot figure out at all and I find it myself, then I will grant myself BA. If its something where I was on the right track, and I second guess my logic, then its like cheating on jumping my points. Can't do that.
Apr 28, 2010 at 8:36 UTC
You don't get points when you give yourself a BA.
Apr 28, 2010 at 9:03 UTC
Oh ok, then good deal. Now I don't feel so bad about it then. Thanks Limey
Apr 29, 2010 at 10:44 UTC
The Enterprise and deluxe versions of OpenDNS are supposed to be getting a bypass page option this year I believe. That would allow you to type in a override password to view the blocked page. I use the deluxe version of OpenDNS and it's made filtering very easy.
May 7, 2010 at 9:50 UTC
One thing you could do is assign the workstation a 1 to 1 NAT on your firewall, which would give it a unique external IP address. Then you can configure that on OpenDNS with whatever settings you want.
May 7, 2010 at 10:45 UTC
Yeah, but then I'd have to do this for every client no? Seems like too much work for the fix.
May 7, 2010 at 12:39 UTC
Yeah, but then I'd have to do this for every client no? Seems like too much work for the fix.
Yes, but your original question was for 1 or 2 users, this seemed to fit that specification. Of course, you'd need open public IP addresses too which may or may not be a problem.
May 11, 2010 at 9:49 UTC
I have more public IPs than I know what to do with (literally). Still, good answer, but not sure if its worth the trouble though. There would be probably 5 users to do this for. I wasn't that specific before sorry, but there will be about 5.
May 11, 2010 at 9:56 UTC
Yeah, I only have 1 user who needs it. Still, I was thinking of doing this scheme with my terminal server and telling the user when they have to do this specific update--for background, we block MySpace because it's a music streaming site and he needs access to that for business--to MySpace he can just use the terminal server.

It's been a big day for the Nusrah Front, one of the most prominent and deadly jihadist groups operating among the rebels against Bashar Assad's regime. Today, they took a long-besieged base on northern Syria. Long War Journal explains:
The Al Nusrah Front for the People of the Levant, an al Qaeda-linked jihadist group that is fighting Bashir al Assad's regime in Syria, and allied jihadist groups took control of the last major Syrian Army base in western Aleppo after a two-month-long siege. The base is believed to be involved in Syria's chemical weapons program.
The Sheikh Suleiman base, or Base 111, fell to the Al Nusrah Front and "several Islamist rebel battalions linked to it," a representative of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights told AFP. Foreign fighters are also said to have played a key role in the assault that led to the fall of the Sheikh Suleiman base, while nearby units of the Free Syrian Army stood by and watched.
"Many of the fighters were from other Arab countries and Central Asia," AFP said. . . . Al Qaeda's black flag of jihad was raised over one of the buildings on the base as the fighting took place.
The two other Islamist groups who fought alongside Al Nusrah were identified as the Mujahedeen Shura Council and the Muhajireen group, according to The Associated Press. The term muhajireen means emigrants, a strong indication that many of its fighters are from outside of Syria.
Some of the fighters who took the base are non-Syrian. One of the leaders involved in the battle to take the base identified himself to AFP as Abu Talha and said he was from Uzbekistan. Other foreign fighters said, "We are all mujahedeens and muhajireens."
Lest their accomplishments go unrecognized, the U.S. government has now black-listed the group and identified it as an offshoot of al-Qaeda in Iraq. The Nusrah Front will be officially added it to the State Department's terror list tomorrow, the Washington Post reports:
The State Department has designated Syria's Jabhat al-Nusra Front as a Global Terrorist organization. The new designation identifies the group as an alias of previously designated al-Qaeda in Iraq. . . .
In separate amendments under the Immigration Act and an existing executive order, the designation prohibits Americans from having any financial dealings with the group and freezes any of its assets under U.S. control.
Recent reports from Syria suggest that extremists groups such as Jabhat are gaining ground in places where support for the opposition Free Syrian Army, the loose umbrella of rebel fighters, is wearing thin.
FSA officials estimate Jabhat fighters now account for 7.5 to 9 percent of total rebel forces, and that they are regarded as some of the fiercest front-line troops against the military force of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Administration officials say the Jabhat group consists largely of Syrian fighters who joined al-Qaeda in Iraq some years ago and have returned to their own country, along with additional Iraqis and other foreigners. Al-Qaeda in Iraq was one of the leading Sunni insurgent groups that attacked U.S. troops there.
The decision to list the group as an AQI alias both accelerated the designation process, and emphasized the administration's desire to tie it directly to the al-Qaeda offshoot in neighboring Iraq.
As the Post goes on to remind us, at the end of last week, member groups of the new Syrian opposition command, the Syrian Opposition Coalition, met in Turkey, but the Nusrah Front was not invited. It is expected that the U.S. will recognize this umbrella group as the legitimate representative of Syria on Wednesday at a meeting in Morocco — meanwhile, the military and tactical vanguard of the rebel forces continues to be undeniably jihadist elements such as the Nusrah group, by their advantages in organization, commitment, expertise gathered in places such as Iraq, enthusiastic funding from Gulf Sunnis, etc., a trend no level of involvement the U.S. is considering seems likely to reverse.

Yeah, sure, Apache uses a Copyright license instead of a copyright transfer. But, well, the interesting thing is that in the individual files there is always a line like: Copyright 2005 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable. Which basically means that there is no means to distinguish the files IBM contributed originally, and the new ones. Tom

Xenforo's anti-spam measures stop all automated spam, so this is about stopping human spammers, who tend to be from the poorer countries - Bangladesh, Cambodia, Cameroon, Congo, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Morroco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, Somalia, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. We also get cookie stuffers from Korea and slightly more sophisticated (but rarer) product promotion from China, Hong Kong, Russia and Ukraine.
Most spammers aren't particularly sophisticated, so they tend to have routines which mean there are common account attributes. Often female, sometimes with a sexy avatar, location is US. Easy to spot and decimate.
My top tips.
- I use https://xenforo.com/community/resources/slider-captcha.3756/ which is the most elegant and easy human verification captcha I've seen.
- Get a StopForumSpam key and enter that into your Spam Management options so that known IPs and email addresses get flagged. I have been putting them in the user moderation queue, but if they have just a few email and/or IP matches, I tend to deny registration, so I may start blocking them automatically. Also having a StopForumSpam key means you contribute to the spam database, which is particularly satisfying.
- Install this https://xenforo.com/community/resources/country-flags-by-ip-address.3080/ so you can instantly see what country the spammers are posting from.
- Force people to enter their location on registration, then if it doesn't match the country flag, you can investigate. There are also patterns in what the spammers enter. Recently a lot have been entering 'earth' or 'vic'.
- Install https://xenforo.com/community/resources/spam-rules-by-waindigo.2771/ and set it to put all posts by people from spammy countries into the moderation queue.
- If you have some countries which only have spammers, install this addon https://xenforo.com/community/resources/user-registration-spam-rules-by-waindigo.2890/ to stop people from those countries from registering altogether. We block Bangladesh, India, Republic of Korea and Pakistan
- If you get more than one spam attempt at a specific domain, block by adding it to the Spam Phrase box in the Spam Management tools page. I put posts in the moderation queue so that if we see a spammer, we can decimate them.
- I use https://xenforo.com/community/resources/mws-daily-statistics.2111/ which gives me a convenient link for today's registrations. I tend to scan down that list and quickly spot spammers.
Recently we've been having more spammers with UK and US IP addresses, which is a concern because most of our membership is from those two countries.
What are your experiences?

Analysis: Justice Souter's Retirement, Likely Replacements on Supreme Court
Friday, May 1, 2009; 12:00 PM
Washington Post Supreme Court reporter Robert Barnes took your questions about the retirement of Supreme Court Justice David Souter and discussed whom the Obama administration might nominate to replace him.
Robert Barnes: Hello everyone. Big news at the Supreme Court, of course. Or at least, what people tell us is big news at the Supreme Court. Still no official word from Justice Souter or the court about his plans. But certainly all indications are that President Obama will have a chance to start putting his stamp on the court. Much of what we might discuss today may not be more than speculation, but let's get at it.
Washington, D.C.: What are the top two or three issues you think Obama will use to guide the choice of his nominee, and what issues do you think he might place less importance on?
Robert Barnes: Good question. Obama has drawn heat from conservatives for saying he would look for judges who have empathy and "heart." What he has said is that the court agrees much of the time, but he would want justices in those few high-profile cases where they are closely divided to have some real-life experiences. I think he will put less importance on whether the person is now a federal appeals judge. Everyone on the court is one of those, and there has been a clamoring by some for someone who would bring a different perspective. One thing we can reasonably sure of, I think, is that Obama's experience as a teacher of constitutional law will make him as involved as any president has been in the choice. here's a story where I explored those themes in a little more detail.
washingtonpost.com: Supreme Court's Direction Hinges on Who Wins '08 Race
Robert Barnes: it's here
Arlington, Va.: How much do you think Justice Souter's mugging influenced this decision to retire? Or is mugging not one of the "ways of Washington" that he supposedly disdains?
Robert Barnes: Oh, I think that had nothing to do with it. It was, what, five years ago? I think it was clear before then that Justice Souter preferred New Hampshire to our lovely city.
New York, NY: Any questions now why Democrats are paying good money to run Specter as a Democrat? I'm appalled at the manipulation and cynicism involved in purchasing Specter's votes for Obama's Supreme Court nominations, but don't you think that's exactly what is going down here, Robert?
Robert Barnes: I think there's just as much speculation that not having Specter as the ranking minority member on the committee could cause Democrats more trouble. Unless Obama nominates someone well outside the mainstream, I would think he already has all the Democrats he needs for confirmation.
Arlington, Va.: Can you cite an example or two of Justice Souter's "well-known disdain for the ways of Washington"? Wasn't he also the Justice who was mugged while jogging in recent years?
Robert Barnes: Well, we've covered the mugging. I think it is more that while the other justices seem to love what Washington offers to Supreme Court justices, Souter didn't seem much interested. Justice Ginsburg recently talked about how she dragged him to the opera, and everyone was amazed to see him out. But I think he likes the work--you don't stay at a job for 20 years if you don't.
Washington, DC: I had the privilege of learning Constitutional law from Prof. Lawrence Tribe many years ago. While I don't necessarily agree with some of his stances, I have nothing but admiration for his intellect and analytical skills. Is there any chance that he would be appointed to the Court or does his being a white male eliminate him from competition? Thank you.
Robert Barnes: I would think it unlikely, although he and Obama are close. But presidents tend to look for younger candidates, who will carry on the work long after their own terms are up.
Anonymous: I hear talk of Obama possibly naming a Republican to the bench. Any ideas? How about Harriet Myers?
Robert Barnes: I'm updating my list of possibilities.
Chestertown, MD: Robert: What are the top criteria you expect to guide President Obama's selection of a SCOTUS nominee? Could you envision serious consideration being given to anyone outside of the legal profession?
Robert Barnes: I think there would be no serious consideration of that at all. Why would a nonlawyer want to sit through ERISSA cases?
New Haven, Conn.: Since Souter is a solid liberal, what else can Obama do to re-shape the court other than appointing a very young female liberal (in hope to occupy the seat for another 40 years)?
Robert Barnes: I'm not sure what a "solid liberal" is, but I catch your drift. You are right that Obama's replacement of Souter will likely do almost nothing to shift the ideology of the court. What liberals I've talked to would like is someone younger, as you mentioned, and perhaps something of a rabble-rouser, in the mold of say, Scalia on the other side. But whether those kinds of candidates fly these days is unclear, and Obama seems like he would be cautious in his first pick for the court.
Prescott, AZ: Any chatter about Hillary Clinton as the (or a future) nominee? I thought there might have been some sort of talk like that when Obama didn't pick her for VP.
Robert Barnes: Everyone likes to talk about this one, but I couldn't find much evidence of it being a serious discussion when the issue came up this summer. Kevin Merida and I wrote a story about it that maybe our moderator can find. Being on the Supreme Court is a much different life than a politician's, and I'm not sure it would be everybody's cup of tea. On the other hand, I never pictured Hillary Clinton as secretary of state, either.
Potomac MD: Robert, do you think that the odds are pretty much close to 100% that the next couple of nominess will be women and/or minorities? Given that Supreme is heavily biased 8-1 to men and 8-1 to whites, it seems totally logical, and approrpriate, that greater weight really needs to be given to balancing this gross disparity.
Given that one of the candidates being talked about is a black woman, personally I can't wait to see the smackdown she puts down on Clarence Thomas!
Robert Barnes: Smackdowns, alas, are rare at the court. But I think almost everyone believes that Obama will look for a woman or minority--or someone who is both--especially because of the numbers you cite.
Washington, DC: Among the candidates whose names are being thrown out there, are there any that might cause a Harriet Miers-like backlash from the left?
Robert Barnes: That's a very good question that I don't know the answer to, partly because we don't really know who is on the administration's list, or even if there is one. Certainly, there is going to be pressure from the left to appoint someone they believe is not suspect on any of their issues. At the American Constitution Society meeting last summer, there was grumbling from some who said Obama should appoint moderates.
The Young Ideologues: Recent history shows that to be a Republican thing.
Clinton nominated 60 year old Ruth Bader Ginsberg at Orrin Hatch's behest and then followed with his own choice, 56-year old pro-corporate centrist Stephen Breyer.
Robert Barnes: Yes, but I also think it is going to become a Democratic thing.
Washington, DC: By custom and as a matter of impartiality, justices typically wait to retire until a member of the party who seated them is in the White House. Souter has done just the opposite. Is there any way to interpret this other than Souter feels the USSC is more about politics than law?
Robert Barnes: I'm not sure I agree with you. I think justices usually leave when they just can't do the job anymore or they are tired of it. Justice Thurgood Marshall, for instance.
Boston: Do you think the other Justices privately follow the coverage and speculation of who their new colleague might be? Is there such thing as water cooler gossip with the Supremes? An office pool?
Robert Barnes: I am sure they follow it quite closely. I only wish I knew if there was an office pool.
Robert Barnes: I'm afraid I've got to run. Thanks for spending some time here, and I'm sorry I can't stay longer. But we are going to be talking about this for a long time.

Now to start thinking about what to put....
During the day, I work as a sales coordinator for a company in strood. I have only been there for just over a month but I'm settling in really well and living every minute :)
Making people laugh and perking people up
Making roast dinners
Fixing things ha!
In terms of music, I love everything really. If I like the song then so be it - whoever it happens to be done by! Although having said that COUNTRY MUSIC IS AMAZING!! It's the way forward ;)
Would love to go to the cinema more often - there's been a few movies out recently that I really want to see. So I guess I'm looking for a cinema friend too! I like action movies and horror movies but my love for musicals is almost unhealthy - I love them all!
Ahhhh food! People say I'm like a human dustbin when it comes to food. My all time favourite thing to eat is definitely BBQ glazed ribs. Omg it's heaven on a plate. Would never order it when out with a girl I'm trying to impress - its gets very messy and I somehow produce 'sex noises' while eating ribs lol
OXYGEN - hahahahaha!!!!! ....
