Control issues
Watching this rewardingly thoughtful conversation develop about how much preaching gospel concerts should include, I wonder if the issue doesn't boil down to this: when people in sg debate how explicitly evangelistic the rhetoric from the gospel-music stage should (or should not) be, they're really debating who - if anyone - controls the music's meaning.
Usually, the more intense calls for a robust preaching of the gospel at southern gospel concerts align with a worldview that sees gospel music as part of a broader need to convert and reform in the name of Christ's kingdom.
At the other end of this spectrum are those who say the music can and should rise and fall without performers connecting the music to specific theological or ideological aims beyond what's already in the music itself.
This is closer to my own view, which is that, at its best, southern gospel exceeds the limits of orthodox culture to control what it means or to put limits on the work it accomplishes.
Of course there's preaching and then there's preaching, or more accurately, preachiness. When people rail against "preaching," they may sometimes be talking about things like an overly aggressive or prolonged altar call (more on that in a moment). But my gut says most complaints about preachiness are complaints about ideological or political statements on stage. We've all experienced this, when some guy (or gal) on stage purports to be "just telling ya'll what the Bible says about" this or that hot button social or moral or political issue.
Though some of this may be spring from a genuine if misguided belief in the prerogatives of the stage or the obligations to be a Christian witness, it's also true that alot of this kind of preaching is showboating and water-chumming, a consequence-free way to appear brave and outspoken about controversial issues … in front of a crowd that overwhelmingly already agrees with you.
The more complicated form of preaching is the more conventional sermonnettes about the redemptive blood of Christ that often end in some kind of call to come to Jesus and here and now, or other rituals traditionally associated with evangelistic crusades or sectarian worship.
What to make of these? Whereas the political stuff often feels ginned up and self-indulgent, this type of rhetoric usually arises from sincere motives but can create a divisive atmosphere at concerts by suggesting that it's not enough to like the music and be moved by it in a way that's meaningful to you. You must also believe a particular set of theological doctrines and subscribe to specific interpretations of scripture to the exclusion of other ways of thinking and believing.
To these orthodox believers, southern gospel is weakened by spiritual freeloaders and other non-conformist fans (aka willful sinners) who neither open their hearts to the one "true" meaning of the music nor surrender their right for it to mean something as powerful as it is unorthodox. In this view, it's not enough to, as I do, find in the music access to powerful psychospiritual experiences and insights that I've found no other way of reliably accessing, and that have had over the course of my life a transformative effect on my understanding of faith, spirituality, and belief. For a lot of people, I and perspectives like mine are the problem, and the music matters most for its ability to convert or redeem people like me into the "right" way of understanding and encountering the music.
I confess I've never really fully understood the intensely orthodox view that believes God is all powerful and mighty to save and gospel music mainly matters as a tool for redemption and renewal of a faithful remnant, and at the same time, that the music itself isn't enough, that God and his gospel as these people understand them need help accomplishing their work. If the music is as powerful and pure and as full of redemptive potential as these people say, why is a sermon and an altar call necessary?
Well, I know the answer, of course. Just as I know people will continue to preach from the stage as reliably as rain.
So preach on, I say. But know that if you're really good at what you do as a musician and performer, you'll unavoidably be creating experiences that will come to mean things to people you can't imagine, or contain with a sermon. Indeed, it's a testament to southern gospel as a form of psychospiritual experience and expression that it can hold these kinds of paradoxes in productive tension.Email this Post

Page 3 of 4
The world's drift towards global catastrophe due to climate change is becoming impossible to deny. This northern summer saw prolonged droughts and heat waves ravage crops from the U.S. Midwest to the plains of Russia, and soaring food prices as the markets responded to shortages in food supply.
This September saw Arctic sea ice cover fall to its lowest ever level: only half of the total area covered by ice in September ten years ago. And October saw Hurricane Sandy devastate much of the U.S. east coast, causing a hundred deaths and over $30 billion in damage. It was the second-costliest tropical storm in American history (after Katrina, in New Orleans, seven years ago).
Yet the global response is as feeble as ever. The annual round of global negotiations on cutting greenhouse gas emissions, held this December in Qatar, merely agreed that they would try to get some sort of deal by 2015. Even if they do, however, it won't go into effect until 2020.
So for the next eight years the only legal constraint on warming will be the modest cuts in emissions agreed at Kyoto fifteen years ago. Moreover, those limits only apply to the old industrial powers. There are no limits whatever on the rise of emissions by the fast-growing economies of the emerging industrial powers in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Even lemmings usually act more wisely than this.
November brought a week of massive Israeli air and missile strikes against the Gaza Strip, allegedly in retaliation for Palestinian missile attacks against Israel, but the tit-for-tat has been going on for so long that it's pointless to discuss who started it. And nothing Israel does can stop the growing support for a Palestinian state: in late November the United Nations General Assembly granted Palestine non-voting observer state status by a vote of 138-9.
More worrisome was the threat of Israeli air strikes on Iran, supposedly to stop it from getting nuclear weapons. That would be a very big war if it started: the United States would almost inevitably get dragged in, the flow of oil from the Gulf states would stop, and the world economy would do a nosedive.
But there is no proof that Iran is currently working on nuclear weapons (the U.S. and Israeli intelligence services both say no), and mere air strikes would not cripple Iran's nuclear industry for long. So the whole issue is probably an Israeli bluff.
A bluff to what end — to get the rest of the world to impose severe economic sanctions against Iran, in the hope that they will cause enough pain to get Iranians to overthrow the present regime? The damage is certainly being done — the value of the Iranian rial collapsed this year — but the power of the ayatollahs is unshaken. They will not be overthrown, and there will not be a war. I think.

Dorset Schools Investing in Cycle Facilities for Pupils
7:47am 14th May 2014
The cycling scene is booming with new stars like Mark Cavendish and Lizzie Armistead inspiring more youngsters to take to 2 wheels, and now schools in Dorset are putting more pedal power being an initiative to get more pupils saddling up.
Prince of Wales First School are the latest place to have installed a new cycle storage facility thanks to a a joint grant from the charity Sustrans and Dorset County Council.
Other schools have benefited from the scheme too, including Radipole Primary and Damers First.
Sustrans Bike It officer for the school Jonathan Dixon said it's great to see youngsters on their bikes;
"It's great for everyone that all these new shelters are in place. By encouraging people to travel by bike, it is not only good for their health, and a cheap way to get around, but it will reduce congestion on local roads too.
These new spaces will provide a safe place for pupils to secure their bikes; giving parent's peace of mind -encouraging them and their children to get in the saddle for the journey to school."
Dorset County Councillor for environment and economy Peter Finney said:
"We're delighted to be able to work in partnership with Sustrans to provide funding for these new facilities which will help to encourage children across Dorset to get to school by bike and scooter.
"We hope they get lots of use throughout this summer and beyond."

Phil Kessel didn't want to negotiate a contract extension during the regular season, so the two sides worked hard to get it in just under the bell. Colleague Pierre LeBrun reports that Kessel's new deal with the Maple Leafs is a healthy one: Eight additional seasons at $8 million per season. But despite the risk that comes with any long-term deal, it's a manageable risk for Toronto. Here are five reasons why this contract works for the Maple Leafs:
1. It's fair market value. There are two common mistakes made when evaluating contracts in the cap era. One is comparing the contract of a potential unrestricted free agent to a deal signed by a restricted free agent. Yes, Kessel will be earning more than Steven Stamkos. No, it's not fair to compare the two. Furthermore, deals signed before term limitations were put in place under the new collective bargaining agreement shouldn't be compared, either. It's why Sidney Crosby's cap hit is $8.7 million and Evgeni Malkin's will be $9.5 million next season. Kessel's new deal should be compared to other fellow potential UFAs who signed in the new environment that caps deals at eight years. In this case, the best comparable player is Corey Perry, who signed an eight-year contract worth $69 million to stay in Anaheim. The going rate for a starting goalie right now is $6 million per season, and a star winger is $8 million. Franchise centers are now worth north of that, as the Chicago Blackhawks will find out when it comes time to extend Jonathan Toews.
2. He's still just 26 years old. The prime for an NHL forward is the youngest of any position, most likely in the 23-27 range, so it's possible that the Kessel we're seeing this season is as good as it gets. But this is a manageable risk by the Maple Leafs, who are signing a player who will still only be approaching his mid-30s when this deal expires. All long-term deals come with age-related risk, but it's considerably less than a deal such as the one Brad Richards got from New York or even Mike Ribeiro in Phoenix this past summer. And he doesn't come with the injury risk of a guy such as Nathan Horton, who got seven years from Columbus this offseason despite a concussion history and a current shoulder injury. After playing two consecutive 82-game seasons, Kessel played in all 48 games in 2013. He's durable.
3. He's building a strong postseason portfolio. Until last season, Kessel hadn't played in the playoffs since 2009 (with the Bruins), so there was question as to whether or not he could produce in the postseason, despite putting up 11 points in 11 games in that playoff run. He answered that this spring with a strong showing against a Bruins team who has historically contained Kessel. He had four goals in seven games, and now has 21 points in 22 career playoff games. The playoffs are built for strong, powerful wingers, but guys such as Kessel and Patrick Kane are proving there's always a spot for high-end skill on the wing in the postseason.
4. He can handle Toronto. One of the risks the Maple Leafs take when signing free agents is how the player will respond to playing in the biggest hockey market on the planet. That's not a question for Kessel. He doesn't seek the spotlight, and doesn't always appear comfortable when dealing with the media. But he's grown comfortable in Toronto, and has spent more offseason time in Ontario. And when he's comfortable, he opens up like we saw in Washington, D.C. at the U.S. Olympic camp, when he sat and chatted with a group of reporters until every question was exhausted. If he wasn't comfortable with the Toronto market, he wouldn't have signed the extension.
5. It's harder to score in today's NHL. Scoring declined last season for the fourth consecutive time as the pendulum continues to swing in favor of defense. Everybody is expected to block shots now, from the stay-at-home defenseman to the star forward. The level of play in goal right now is also at an all-time high and even with the equipment adjustment, it's remarkably hard to score on your first shot like Kessel does so often. His great shot and ability to change a game in a moment's notice becomes even more valuable as it becomes harder for the rest of the league to do the same. If the Maple Leafs weren't willing to pay him $8 million per season, there would have been no shortage of interested general managers at the opening of free agency next summer.

Leo Rooster
Leo's born in the astrological Chinese Year of the Rooster are assumed to gain an amount of the Rooster's friendly sociable personality within theirs. A Leo Rooster combination generally gives individuals a very affable nature that can easily get along with almost anyone. These people have an extremely helpful character and they are usually first to volunteer when others need assistance. They have a sensible mature attitude that is compassionate and warm. The addition of the influential gregarious Rooster to these Leo personalities makes them more outgoing than other Leo's and with a touch more confidence.
Leo Rooster Traits
A Leo Rooster is a great companion to journey through life with, his positivity can make any experience better managed and less stressful. These people are excellent organizers who like to have gentle control over things including their own emotions. The Leo Rooster is a wonderful friend but sometimes finds closer personal relationships, where he is expected to open up a little more, harder. Many of these Leo's tend to want to be just friends with potential partners for a long time before they wish to take the relationship further. These people are generally positive and forward thinking but when it concerns settling down for the long term they may suffer from doubt and caution.
At work and at home the Leo Rooster can be relied upon to provide lots of entertaining jokes and boosts to moral. He has a fine sense of humor and is always ready to cheer people up if he spots them brooding. The Leo Rooster's friendliness, humor and clever way with supportive words usually soon has people smiling again. These individuals take life at a steady pace in general but will push themselves to their limits if they feel that the cause is justified. They are attracted to interests like politics and have a thirst for new and current information.
The Leo Rooster is a saver rather than a spender and is always careful to try and get value for money. This can sometimes be seen as them being rather miserly with money but they do not aim to be. They are extremely generous natured, just not in relation to finances. The Rooster's sensible cautious approach to life overpowers the influence of these big-hearted Lion's where money is concerned. Leo Rooster's are usually good people to go shopping with as they will almost definitely stop you from overspending. They also have a keen eye for a bargain and will probably save you some money.
Although they are an exceedingly friendly personality type the Leo Rooster can also be a little bossy and loud at times. Sometimes they are impelled to try and take over situations when their assistance is not really required. If they think that they are right about something the Leo Rooster will be very insistent and his or her normally amicable persona may temporarily disappear. This controlling streak only becomes a problem if these Leo's do not learn to accept that not everyone is gracious at receiving help and some people like to do things themselves.
Leo Rooster Compatibility (Love & Friendship)
Leo Roosters make friends easily and usually keep a lot of them around. Though they like to keep their closest friends within reach, members of this sign also like to keep a large group of acquaintances around. They know that spending too much time with the same people will get them taken for granted, so they prefer making appearances from time to time in order to get the attention they desire. Aside from being a bit egotistical and a tendency to be know-it-alls, most people genuinely like having Leo Roosters around. They work hard, so they know how to play hard, and are always up for social events and gatherings.
Those born under this sign are surprisingly dedicated in matters of love. Though many believe they are too in love with themselves to be in love with anyone else, this is not actually true. Leo Roosters have big hearts and when they fall in love, they fall hard. When this happens, members of this sign will go out of their way to shower attention and affection on their partner - after all, this is the way they interpret love. It can be quite a challenge when it comes to sharing an actual partnership, as Leo Roosters strongly prefer being the boss of everyone, but with age Leo Roosters can learn to share their lives with someone else - especially someone who knows (and reminds them often) how lucky they are to be in the relationship.
Leo Rooster Business (Career & Goals)
Choosing the right career for a Leo Roosters is not a matter of what they can or can't do - it's a matter of where they can shine the brightest. Leo Roosters are highly capable and highly confident - a potent combination for success wherever they go. They may not be the smartest of the group, but they will most likely become the leader anyway because of their self-assured swagger.
Leo Roosters do best when they are in charge. In all honesty, they can be downright bossy and demanding, so it's best if they are either the leader of a group or in a position where they can control their own destiny. As long as they get to choose their path in life, they will pursue their goals with the utmost intensity. Leo Roosters need to be the best at what they do, and they are willing to put in the time and effort necessary to do so. That said, the most important consideration in choosing a career is where their inner passion lies.
Some jobs do tend to make better fits than others, though, and those are usually the ones that fit with a Leo Rooster's individual skills and personality traits. Leo Roosters who are naturally athletic will do well in sports because they also possess the will to win and the desire to earn the admiration of their fans. The same goes for actors, musicians, and other types of performers. The only real challenge there is that Leo Roosters are not good at self-assessment, and therefore tend to believe that they have the requisite talent to succeed even if they do not.
Less flashy careers that fit the Leo Rooster profile include that of teacher, police officer, news anchor, hairdresser, and public relations officer. In all of these, members of this sign can exercise their bossy side while becoming well-known and appreciated (at least locally) for their talents.

Road Trip*
Shyster is hitting the road for a couple of days. California if you must know. There will be baseball -- I'll be catching the Padres and Mariners Saturday night, and may get a chance to take in the Dodgers-Jays on Friday -- but I'll probably not be writing about it until I get back to stinky old Ohio on Monday.
Recommendation for the weekend: watch Homer Bailey's Major League debut Friday night. If I'm the Reds I let him break in against weaker bats than the Tribe, but then the Reds do a lot of things I wouldn't do.
Otherwise? Some other young chap is making his season debut in Pittsburgh on Saturday, which should be fun. Go Pirates.
Mets-Tigers looks like it might be the most fun of all of the interleague matchups this weekend. As much as I'd like to hate the Mets, they're a pretty likable team and the novelty of the Tigers being good hasn't worn off for me yet. If I get too wasted in California and end up sitting on my brother's couch all day Saturday and Sunday, that's the series I'm tuning into.
Hasta Martes.
*While I, um, borrow most of the pics that accompany my posts, I actually took this one myself. That's US-50, a couple dozen miles east of the Utah-Nevada border, on April 20, 2003. I had sort of lost my bearings around that time, and vistas like that one helped me find them again. Just thought you should know.

Today is the final day of my 365 Day Photo-A-Day project! I am feeling proud and relieved and excited and grateful. To say that this experience was meaningful in my life would be a dramatic understatement. To say that it literally changed my life would not be far from the truth.
When I began this project on August 17th, 2009, I was in love with photography but taking mediocre pictures with a decent point and shoot camera. As I sit here today, I am taking much better photos with my DSLR camera in manual mode at all times. When I began this project, I had little knowledge of the terms exposure, aperture, white balance, etc. Today, I confidently know, understand, and utilize these terms with respect to my camera. When I began this project, I was knee deep in a soap making business that was no longer serving me. Today, I am in the beginning stages of a portrait photography business…a real life dream come true! When I began this project, I had a couple of online friends who read my blog every once in a while. Today, I have a blessed abundance of real friends that I have made through Flickr and this blog and I have to admit that it all began with my more active participation on Flickr…yes, through this project!
My primary purpose for beginning this project was to learn how to take better pictures. I also wanted to capture this last year in my twenties in a meaningful way. What I now have is a year's worth of photos that depict my life, my love, my family, my heart, and my soul. Here are just a few of the images I have collected over the past year. Thank you all for taking this journey with me!
Coincidentally {but not so coincidentally, I am thirty today. I'm ready and, might I add, blissfully happy to leave my twenties behind me and I'm forging straight ahead into this new decade!

The Mazda MX-5 Super20 is not new to us as this model was unveiled last year at the SEMA Show, but the Japanese manufacturer decided to upgrade the car and now its back in Las Vegas. As you can see from the photos, the car shows a Hyper Orange Mica paint and a new glossy black hardtop which replaces the standard soft-top and matching orange stripes.
The interior shows a pair of black leather seats with suede inserts and channel stitching, providing a grip for drivers.
Orange contrast stitching adds the finishing touch to the sporty seat profile.
Under the hood, we find a DPTune reflashed ECU, Racing Beat 304-stainless steel header and exhaust, Racing Beat hollow front and rear anti-roll bars, ACT organic street clutch, a new set of Mazdaspeed coil overs and a shock tower brace, Power Slot slotted brake rotors, StopTech stainless steel brake lines and street performance brake pads, SpeedSource front brake ducts, black 16-inch Enkei RPF1 twin-spoke racing wheels, Toyo Proxes RA-1 245/45ZR16 high-performance tires and 20mm H&R Track+ bolt-on wheel spacers in the rear with 15mm Sparco wheel spacers in the front.

So Not Quilting But too Cute Not to Share
On Saturday, March 22nd my husband and I adopted our newest member of the family. A rescue pup from Puerto Rico... Rambo now named "Jake" is a Coon hound Pointer Mix. Such a cutie patutie and he and his sibling had a very rough time of it prior to their rescue. I am sharing photos of Jake aka Jake from State Farm LOL!!! he is so filled with piss and vinegar and has blossomed into his own. Training has good and bad days. I suspect we will have to give him more time to adjust. A bit skid dish but I suspect this is from the situation he was in. When I got him I grabbed a quilt to bring him home in and grabbed a quilt I just made. I will tell you this he has made it his own so I guess I need to make a new one... So enough of the chatting let see pics everyone!!!!!

Having completed a thorough review of Emirati commercial law, Tungsten Network now allows customers to send and receive electronic invoices that qualify as a legal invoice in the UAE.
So why are the United Arab Emirates so important to Tungsten, you might ask. Well, that is because the UAE is one of the Middle East's largest economies, one of the world's most important business hubs and appointed by Tungsten clients as a key market.
The Taiwanese Ministry of Finance has won a special Government Service Quality Awards for its e-invoice team. The Government Service Quality Awards are the highest honor for Taiwanese government agencies providing excellent service quality. The "Special Award" is given to agencies that have made outstanding contributions to improve service process, and achieve tangible benefits.Read More
Even though Turkey has its eye on being a member of the European Union, there are quite some differences. One such difference is the way e-invoicing is shaped. Firstly e-invoicing will become mandatory for certain companies as from 1 September 2014. Secondly, the Turkish Revenue Administration acts as a hub. Thirdly, e-signatures are required. And fourth E-invoicing Service Providers need formal approval. Time for an overview...Read More
Countries all over the world start implementing e-invoicing. And with it, they mostly develop fiscal e-invoicing schemes that differ from state tot state. That is why it is important to have a service provider that provides compliance in the states where your customers/suppliers are situated.
Recently Tungsten added Saudi Arabia to its already impressive list of countries where they help organisations to streamline their processes and to achieve compliant straight-through processing.
Today the first edition of the Arab World Online Payment Report. The report provides in-depth analysis of the state of e-commerce, e-payment and bill presentment over the past ten years in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Kuwait.Read More
The winner of this years RFID Green Award, the Fiscal Information Agency of the Taiwanese Ministry of Finance, said that there are about 8 billion uniform invoices (most of them B2C receipts) issued annually in Taiwan. The amount of paper consumption for these 8 billion invoices equals to 80,000 trees felled as well as the 3,200 tons of carbon dioxide emission.Read More
Jordan has introduced eFawateerCom. The nationwide EBPP platform that lets people receive and pay their bills electronically from computers, ATMs and POS terminals from all over the country.
Most of the large Jordanian billers are "expected" to join eFawateerCom within the next 12-16 months. Meanwhile the Jordan government will use the platform to manage customs duties and taxes, again combating tax avoidance
Fawry, the leading Egyptian Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment (EBPP) platform in Egypt, has plans to expand regionally, starting with the UAE to be followed by other GCC markets Fawry allows consumers from across the socio-economic strata in more than 300 cities and suburbs across Egypt to pay for their bills online, on mobile and at more than 40,000 points of presence across the nation, including 15 banks and 4200 ATMs; 1300 Egypt Post branches; 35000 retailers comprising pharmacies, supermarkets and convenience stores; as well as mobile and internet. Currently, more than one million transactions are processed daily via FawryRead More
In July of this year GSIS, the Government Service Insurance System, (the agency responsible to provide and administer the social security benefits for government employees in the Philippines) will be launching an online billing and payment application.
The Electronic Billing and Collection System (eBCS) is a web-based application that will enable GSIS to send its billing statements for premium and loan amortisation to government agencies electronically, and accept payments online.
Malaysia introduced a new goods and services (GST) tax to be introduced in April 2015. The new tax will be levied at 6 per cent. The GST, unveiled in Malaysia's 2014 Budget, will replace the country's current sales and services tax of up to 16 per cent. Essential food items such as flour and rice, as well as bus and train fares, will be exempted. Oscar Ferreira raised the question in our LinkedIN group: "With the upcoming developments on GST does anybody experienced e-invoicing for a Malaysian buyer organization? Any contribution is appreciated."Read More

Traditional BDUs (Battle Dress Uniforms) aren't nearly as common as they used to be. But the idea of wearing an alternative uniform that's combat ready-originally borrowed from the military-is more popular than ever, as evidenced by the assortment of new BDUs, tacpants, and jumpsuits available for law enforcement.
Gang members are usually decorated with the marking of their sets, super-gangs, and affiliated prison gangs. Their bodies are also often marked with tattoos that are generic prison symbols that you will find on just about any inmate. The following slide show is a quick look at some tattoos used by some predominately African-American gangs with origins in California.
There was a time when night vision tools and thermal imaging cameras were so cutting edge and so expensive that only the military and the FBI had access to them. Today, this equipment is playing a greater role in local law enforcement operations. It's less expensive, though still not cheap, and it's much easier to use. Here's a quick look at some of the most innovative products now available in the night vision and thermal imaging market.

Giving citizen data scientists a short leashData Science, Data scientist
Data Science image via Shutterstock
By James Kobielus (@jameskobielus)
Data scientists are not an elite class in our society. The concept of a "Citizen Data Scientist" describes a new generation of largely self-taught statistical explorers. In today's dynamic free-market economy, they're emerging to satisfy insatiable demand for their services.
Citizen Data Scientists are challenging the notion that you need some minimal academic qualifications to present yourself, without prevarication, as a competent professional in this discipline. In this economy, anybody can become a data scientist simply by doing the work and consistently producing the intended results.
The rise of the Citizen Data Scientist stems from three principal trends:
- Subject matter experts are shifting their focus toward data science. Increasingly, analysts of all sorts are acquiring data science skills and learning the tools of the trade in order to kickstart their careers in an exciting and potentially lucrative new direction. Mid-career professionals are leveraging the wealth of online tools, education, and community resources to master predictive modeling, machine learning, data engineering, and other key data-science practices. Many of the new data scientists are availing themselves of the ample free online resources to bootstrap themselves into this "sexy" profession on the cheap.
- Data science initiatives are increasingly open to team members with non-traditional backgrounds. The shortage of skilled, established data scientists relative to the demand for their services is causing analytics leaders to soften their recruitment and hiring criteria. Given the persistent undersupply of qualified data scientists to meet growing demand, the autodidacts (who can actually deliver the goods) will be able to prosper in today's big-data-besotted economy.
- Data scientists of all skill levels are volunteering their efforts to a growing range of projects of a voluntary, probono, humanitarian, or charitable nature. As befits the "citizen" sobriquet, someone who embarks on this career path might typically cut their teeth on such projects, perhaps working closely with established data scientists on sabbatical from their dayjobs. Citizen data scientists' insights–developed in close collaboration with subject-matter experts–can provide the decision support needed by agencies, community groups, and others who are in a position to fix the problems.
Clearly, most of the citizen data scientists who participate in communities such as New York-based DataKind have dayjobs to pay the bills. But they see larger humanitarian causes–reuniting refugees, curing infectious diseases, feeding hungry populations, guaranteeing civil rights to the disenfranchised, etc.–that can benefit from data scientists of all sorts, including the self-taught, applying their best efforts and tools to the task.
For-profit organizations everywhere can play a huge role in cultivating the next generation of citizen data scientists. As I discussed here, for-profit private-sector organizations are engaging in humanitarian data-scientific initiatives. For example, IBM's Global Citizenship program enables our employees to volunteer their time and talent anywhere there is a social need. Note that, although IBM encourages employees to volunteer under the program, our personnel and the community participants among whom they volunteer know that they are sharing personal time and are not representing the company in any way. In other words, this is a corporate-citizenship program whose aim is to foster private-citizen volunteerism in data scientist and other capacities.
Even without taking leave from their day jobs, people can cultivate Citizen Data Scientist skills that they can apply to data science projects in company-sponsored extracurriculars and other settings. Employers can encourage business analysts to acquire data science skills beyond any that they picked up in school.
Company-sponsored data-science centers of excellence are a good way to nurture a new crop of Citizen Data Scientists. The informal center-of-excellence may be best for attracting people who don't see themselves becoming heavy-hitting PhD-quality data scientists. At the very least, companies should facilitate ongoing communications between knowledge workers and established data scientists. For example, Friday lunch-and-learn sessions might interest analysts who want to immerse themselves in presentations, demonstrations, and discussions by established data scientists.
Whether you choose to hire or retain a data scientist with minimal qualifications or track records is your decision, and the risks are obvious. In business contexts, it might make good sense to give Citizen Data Scientists a short leash until such time as they prove out some basic level of competence in this function.
In that regard, William Vorhies does a good job discussing these risks in this recent blog. While highlighting the importance of nurturing Citizen Data Scientists in business contexts, he spells out broad recommendations for mitigating the accompanying risks. I'll paraphrase these risk-mitigation principles as follows:
- Ensure that Citizen Data Scientists apply established methodologies for data sourcing, cleansing, transformation, outlier analysis, and model development
- Require Citizen Data Scientists to discuss their methodologies and results in visual data-centric narratives.
- For projects that have a potential bottom-line business impact, require Citizen Data Scientists to have their work reviewed by established data scientists
- For data-driven predictive models and other artifacts developed by Citizen Data Scientists, require that established data scientists certify those assets before they're deployed into operational systems, business processes, or applications in conjunction with live data sets
- Ensure that Citizen Data Scientists comply with all relevant data governance, privacy, security, and other procedural controls throughout the lifecycle of their projects
All of that makes exquisite sense. It's great to have a force multiplier of self-taught, hard-working, creative new contributors for your companies' data-science initiatives. But it would be foolish in the extreme to let them bootstrap their learning curves without constant monitoring and supervision.

Precipitating money from the edges of the Internet of ThingsInternet of Things, Machine learning
Internet image via FreeImages
By James Kobielus (@jameskobielus)
The Internet of Things (IoT) is radically expanding the pool of data available for monetization opportunities.
IoT opens vast new possibilities for monetization of the data that's sure to stream from everything, everywhere, and everybody at all hours of the day and night. These opportunities may accrue from sensor data that is collected and processed in the aggregate in the IoT's increasingly ubiquitous "fog computing" cloud environment. Or it may come from microdribbles of valuable data points that originate from the edges of this fog.
Micromonetization is the most tantalizing opportunity when you consider IoT as a mass consumer phenomenon. IoT applications in smartphones, smart security, smart meters, smart cars, smart environmental probes, and so on will traffic in snippets of data that have some monetizable value. As more innovators scratch micro-itches with new IoT devices, apps, analytics, services, and the like, micromonetization opportunities will flourish.
To realize this potential, IoT data monetization needs to be approached from a strategic perspective. When looking for IoT monetization opportunities, consider the following key approaches:
- Direct monetization: To the extent that you own the IoT-sourced microdata, you may consider reselling it in raw, aggregated, refined, and other forms. Before you take the first move, though, you'll need to clarify whether IoT-sourced microdata really belongs to you. Depending on the application, consumers might own all or some of the data, and your ability to resell or otherwise use it will depend on securing their approval subject to the applicable laws, contracts, and agreements. Offering users financial incentives (even tiny ones) for their online IoT data sharing increases the likelihood can make a huge difference in whether they stay with your brand or offer their data to your competitor instead. All it takes is the right business model that involves keeping the income-producing activities (e.g., advertising) producing enough revenue to keep content suppliers (aka users) from jumping ship.
- Indirect monetization. You may use IoT-sourced microdata to drive business outcomes that generate cash flow or boost your firm's market valuation. Key approaches in this regard are to indirectly monetize IoT microdata in productization (i.e., incorporation into IoT-connected solutions), targeting (i.e, use IoT data in analytics that improve your engagement with customers and other stakeholders), and/or operations (e.g., use IoT data to identify assets that are not being used to maximum efficiency).
When it comes to direct monetization, IoT will probably not deliver a gusher of green to every business that tries to stake a claim. Instead, it will unleash many streams of sensor-data-driven value, each of which will be suitable for incremental panning. This doesn't mean that some businesses and consumers won't derive significant incomes from monetizing IoT data. It's all a matter of finding the gold-flaked streams, setting up sustainable panning operations, and refining it 24×7.
To make that happen, you'll need to identify the specific metering, pricing, and collection mechanisms for cashing in on your IoT monetization dreams. In that regard, I recommend this recent Dzone article, which focuses on IoT APIs as a key monetization interface and identifies the various fee structures (setup, fixed monthly, subscription, per transaction, etc.) that may be most feasible in your monetization initiative.
If you're a bit foggy on where to get started in cashing in on the potential of IoT data, you're not alone. Just as it took Google and others several years after the Web's commercial emergence to figure out how to cash in on its advertising potential, it may take several more before we see the world's first IoT micro-monetization mogul.

Notice, in the verses below, that although Hannah was not speaking she was pouring her soul out to God, from a deep place in her heart. So deep that she could not express it with words, only the utterance of her soul could express it.
Very much like the rivers of living water that flow from our Spirit man from the deep. We pray in The Spirit out to God, uttering words that we do not know, crying out to The Lord!
Oh I believe with all my heart, that Hannah, if she was filled with The Holy Spirit would have been praying in tongues fervently, crying out to The Lord. I am convinced that this account is SHADOW AND A TYPE of deep,fervent prayer in The SPIRIT.
The kind of prayer that availeth much and changes the course of lives,cities and nations!!
I also want you to notice, in the verses from the NT, that The sign of the infilling Spirit with evidence of Speaking in other tongues was tied to, and was part of the same prophetic utterance, of The Last Days and judgement upon the earth.
1 Samuel 1:12-17
Amplified Bible (AMP)
And as she continued praying before the Lord, Eli noticed her mouth.
Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved but her voice was not heard. So Eli thought she was drunk.
Eli said to her, How long will you be intoxicated? Put wine away from you.
But Hannah answered, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I was pouring out my soul before the Lord.
Regard not your handmaid as a wicked woman; for out of my great complaint and bitter provocation I have been speaking.
Then Eli said, Go in peace, and may the God of Israel grant your petition which you have asked of Him.
Also The Next Chapter shows Gods Judgement and Mercy. Mercy toward Hannah. judgement toward Eli's sons. AND The then ministry of Samuel, a foreshadowing of Christ.
1 Samuel 2:1-10 New Living Translation (NLT)
1 Then Hannah prayed:
"My heart rejoices in the Lord!
The Lord has made me strong.[a]
Now I have an answer for my enemies;
I rejoice because you rescued me.
2 No one is holy like the Lord!
There is no one besides you;
there is no Rock like our God.
3 "Stop acting so proud and haughty!
Don't speak with such arrogance!
For the Lord is a God who knows what you have done;
he will judge your actions.
4 The bow of the mighty is now broken,
and those who stumbled are now strong.
5 Those who were well fed are now starving,
and those who were starving are now full.
The childless woman now has seven children,
and the woman with many children wastes away.
6 The Lord gives both death and life;
he brings some down to the grave[b] but raises others up.
7 The Lord makes some poor and others rich;
he brings some down and lifts others up.
8 He lifts the poor from the dust
and the needy from the garbage dump.
He sets them among princes,
placing them in seats of honor.
For all the earth is the Lord's,
and he has set the world in order.
9 "He will protect his faithful ones,
but the wicked will disappear in darkness.
No one will succeed by strength alone.
10 Those who fight against the Lord will be shattered.
He thunders against them from heaven;
the Lord judges throughout the earth.
He gives power to his king;
he increases the strength[c] of his anointed one."
Then in The New Testament:
And all were beside themselves with amazement and were puzzled and bewildered, saying one to another, What can this mean?
But others made a joke of it and derisively said, They are simply drunk and full of sweet [intoxicating] wine.
But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them: You Jews and all you residents of Jerusalem, let this be [explained] to you so that you will know and understand; listen closely to what I have to say.
For these men are not drunk, as you imagine, for it is [only] the third hour (about 9:00 a.m.) of the day;
But [instead] this is [the beginning of] what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels] and your young men shall see visions (divinely granted appearances), and your old men shall dream [divinely suggested] dreams.
Yes, and on My menservants also and on My maidservants in those days I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels and predicting future events pertaining especially to God's kingdom].
And I will show wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth beneath, blood and fire and smoking vapor;
The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the obvious day of the Lord comes--that great and notable and conspicuous and renowned [day].
And it shall be that whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord [invoking, adoring, and worshiping the Lord--Christ] shall be saved.

In regard to Don Deweese's Aug. 30 letter, it seems he is guilty of his own accusations of others - namely, he seems to be misusing the Bible to promote his own moral and political views. I followed his advice and looked up and read again the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Wow! If this was about a sin of hospitality then we can say Saddam Hussein was merely a rude person.
Mr. DeWeese hinges the message of his letter on one verse (John 3:17). I have often heard it is not a good method of argument to pluck only one sentence out of the Bible to support one's point. God is far more intelligent than any of us. It took him an entire book to get his message to us.

Vayne Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Chapter 1
Hi! This is mine first build so i hope you like it ;P!
The world is not always as civilized as people might think. There are still those who would follow the blackest paths of magic and become corrupted by the darker powers that flow through Runeterra. Shauna Vayne knows this fact well. As a young privileged girl in the heart of Demacia's elite, her father tried to convince her of the constabulary's ever-vigilant eye. Young and naive, she truly believed that her world was one of perfect safety, until one night, when a twisted witch took interest in her father. The malevolent woman overcame her father's conciliar guard, then tortured her family before murdering them. The young Shauna escaped only by hiding herself and then fleeing once the hag had departed, plagued by the screams of her loved ones as she ran. A burning hatred was born in her that day, one that could never be denied.
Vayne was able to take care of herself using her father's money, and she began to train as soon as an instructor would have her as a student. By the time she was a fully grown woman, she had become a grim warrior. However, the fields of battle were not to be her home. Demacia needed a protector, one who hunted those lost to the darkness. Shauna used her family's contacts to become the first Night Hunter, and now her prowess is the stuff of legends. It is said that those who practice the black arts quake when they hear that the Night Hunter is on the prowl. Despite her crusade, Shauna has looked at the League of Legends in horror. There are champions who have clearly lost themselves to the blackest of magics, and who have been embraced within the League even though they should be put down for the safety of all. The time has come for the Night Hunter to execute her secret mission - to purge the League of Legends.
Not all shadows are to be feared. At least, if Vayne has her way.
Night Hunter (Passive): Vayne ruthlessly hunts evil-doers. She gains bonus Movement Speed when moving toward nearby enemy champions.
Tumble: Vayne tumbles, maneuvering to carefully place her next shot. She rolls toward the cursor and her next attack deals bonus damage.
Silver Bolts: Vayne tips her bolts with a rare metal, toxic to evil things. The third consecutive attack or ability against the same target deals a percentage of the target's maximum Health as bonus true damage. (Max damage vs. Monsters is capped)
Condemn: Vayne draws a heavy crossbow from her back, and fires a huge bolt at her target, dealing damage and knocking them back. If they collide with terrain, they are impaled, dealing bonus damage and stunning them.
Final Hour (Ultimate): Readying herself for an epic confrontation, Vayne gains increased Attack Damage, stealth during Tumble, and quadruple the bonus Movement Speed from Night Hunter.
Brute-force 3/3 , Butcher 1/2 , Alacirty 4/4 , DeadLiness 4/4 , Weapon-expertise 1/1 ,
Lethality 1/1 , Vampirisim 3/3 , Sunder 3/3 , Executioner 1/1
Summoners-resolve 1/1 , Hardiness 3/3 , Resistance 3/3 , Tough skin 2/2
Greater Quintessence of Desolation 3
Greater Mark of Strength 9
Greater Seal of Alacrity 9
Greater Glyph of Resilience 9
Stupendous Summoner Spells
Flash: Flash is extremely useful for closing the gap on enemies if they're running away, or for jumping over walls to escape from salivating enemies vying for your blood. Flash is a must have on all squishy champions with no escape mechanism. While Vayne has Tumble and Condemn to escape and push back, Flash is a fail safe, as well as being a strong offensive tool.
Exhaust: Exhaust is essential on Vayne to gain the upper hand in any 1v1 fight, or clustered teamfight. Chucking Exhaust on the enemy AD or AP carry immediately shuts them down, and allows you to perform at your full potential. As with Flash, Exhaust can be used offensively, or defensively.
Silver Bolts (W): This ability is very interesting, and what makes Vayne such a beast in team fights/sustained fights. She basically has an in-built sort of The Black Cleaver/ Madred's Bloodrazor in the sense that every third hit (reminiscent of the Black Cleaver) does true percentage damage based on the target's health (reminiscent of Madred's). The BEST thing about Silver Bolts is that it is not affected by Magic Resist.
Tips and Tricks
Silver Bolts won't start crippling enemies until late game, once HP gets higher, therefore it's less of a priority than keeping yourself alive. However, Silver Bolts provide pretty mean burst even on squishies. It gives bonus flat damage in addition to % max health as true damage.
•Never give up in a team fight. The point of Silver Bolts is that it rewards Vayne for continuing a fight. Keep auto-attacking, listen for that audible TWANG and watch in satisfaction as their health is ripped away.
• Silver Bolts makes it very easy to push a lane. Don't auto-attack creeps, just last hit. However, if you are pushing, three hits should take out the ranged minions easily.
Q: Should I Max Silver Bolts first?
The short answer to this question, is "No". The idea behind starting with Tumble first is that you have a low mana cost escape or harrass too. Starting with Silver Bolts is not a great idea due to the fact you won't be auto-attacking at that level.
Silver Bolts is also based off the enemies' health. You have to think of it in a relative sort of way. If they have 100 health, that 4% isn't really going to do anything - ie, you deal 4 extra damage ONLY if you get that 3rd hit. That is what you need to realise. You only do that extra percentage damage, and that base addition when you strike that 3rd hit to proc Silver Bolts. Otherwise, you're just making pretty rings around the object you're attacking.
that it doesn't make much sense, but it does more damage the more amount of health someone has. So ideally you want this maxed out when people start buying health items, not before.
Auto-attack means auto-atacking creeps to push the lane. You don't want to be pushing the lane, because that leaves you susceptable to ganks. In a realistic situation, you will not get that Silver Bolts proc on a laning enemy unless they are ******ed - as you may know, Silver Bolts is only applied to the target for a certain amount of time before it disappears. If you hit them twice, and they pop into brush, unless you're suicidal and follow them, you're not going to get that third hit.
You have to think of health and percent damage as relative.
100 health, 4 damage + 20. (first level)
1000 health, 40 damage + 20. (first level)
100 health, 8 damage + 60. (final level)
1000 health, 80 damage + 60. (final level)
^assuming you get the Silver Bolts proc.
When is it better to get Silver Bolts? When does it do the most damage? When the enemy has more health. You can clearly see that it doesn't do as much damage early game as it would late game. That's what I'm trying to say. The whole point of Tumble is that you Tumble before the third consecutive hit, dealing Tumble + Silver Bolts damage. As such, it's best to max Silver Bolts second or last
Voracious Vayne's Skill Set - Condemn
Condemn (E): This spell is absolutely fantastic. Those familiar with Poppy will find the spell a bit awkward to use, whereas those familiar with Alistar will get the hang of Condemn immediately. It takes a bit of practice to get the best result with Condemn every fight, but you'll get used to it. You should be levelling this out before Silver Bolts if you believe you can land the stuns, otherwise max it out after Silver Bolts.
Tips and Tricks
•Use Condemn to push chasing enemies away from you.
•Try to Condemn enemies into walls. This stuns them.
•Condemn has a large cooldown, despite our cooldown reduction runes and masteries, so don't just spam this ability for the lulz. Use it to save/protect allies/yourself, or to create chaos in a teamfight.
Now, in the below video, I get a kill, and am left on too little health for my liking. I immediately respond to instinct, and Condemn Poppy away from me, so I will be safe. I could have easily cut the part out where I fail with my Condemn, but I leave it in to show that it is a tricky skill to land. Notice that in the space of less than one second, Poppy moves slightly to the left, and I don't move to the left to compensate for this. This error leads to me Condemning Poppy away from myself, instead of into the wall. I could have chosen to chase her, but she still had Flash up, so I assumed she would jump over Dragon wall. Long story short: I fail with a Condemn, I don't chase, and I lose a possible kill. If I get any more negative feedback based upon this video, I'll just simply take it out :)

A half-diallel involving seven parental clones of smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) was used to elucidate the genetic variation of 14 characters, including width, vein number, vein frequency, interveinal distance, stomatal length, stomatal frequency, and the product of stomatal length and frequency for both leaf and sheath, Combining ability analyses showed that general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) mean square values were significant, with the exception of the GCA mean square values for leaf vein frequency and interveinal distance. The preponderance of additive gene effects was evident from the variance components for vein number on both leaf and sheath, and leaf stomatal characters. High narrow-sense heritabilities were estimated for these characters. Phenotypic and genotypic correlation coefficients indicated no association between leaf dimension and leaf vein frequency and interveinal distance. Plants with large leaf area, wide leaves, or high specific leaf weight tended to have high vein number, large stomatal size and low stomatal frequency. Selection for high vein frequency and narrow interveinal distance may increase forage yield of both the first harvest and the regrowth. Selection for small stomata on leaf and sheath, and high stomatal frequency on sheath, should improve forage yield of the first harvest.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.
