Middlesex Schools to play at Allianz Park
Allianz Park will become home to teams from schools across Middlesex at the end of November.
For the fifth year, the famous Saracens' stadium will host 18 teams from 11 schools across the county competing in the Middlesex Schools Finals, sponsored by iLites. The competition, which takes place on Tuesday 28th and Thursday 30th November, and Friday 1st December, comprises U14, U15, U16 and U18 age groups with the more traditional rugby schools competing for the Cup whilst those newer to the game play in the Plate competition.
We would like to thank iLites from Phoenix Sporting Goods for supporting this event.
Disciplinary Secretary
Do you have what it takes to be at the forefront of discipline in the County?
Middlesex Rugby is looking for a Disciplinary Secretary to lead the disciplinary panel and sit on the county's Governance Committee. This is an important and prominent role with wide ranging scope.
The role will commence in February 2018, with the first six months spent shadowing the current post holder before formally taking responsibility in July.
Haringey's heroic volunteer
De'Shaun Elliot has been named one of four Mitsubishi Motors Volunteers of the Year for the dedication he has shown over the last seven years to introducing rugby to hundreds of young people in Haringey.
De'Shaun has previously been a recipient of a Middlesex Young Volunteer of the Year Award and is doing remarkable work as a coach for Haringey and the local community.
He coaches three sessions every day of the week and spends his evenings working as a barman to give him the income he needs to carry on volunteering. He also supports the Haringey Development Trust to deliver sport for children and is the Rhinos' O2 Touch operator.
Jim Towers
Middlesex Life Vice President Jim Towers died on Thursday 5th October. He was for many years an outstanding member of Haringey RFC where he took on many roles but he will be best remembered by club members for running the bar at their old clubhouse.
His funeral will take place on Friday 20th October 2017 at 4pm at Marylebone Crematorium, East End Road, East Finchley, London N2 0RZ. Then afterwards at The Clissold Arms, 105 Fortis Green, East Finchley, London N2 9HR

Why does everyone keep saying how SMALL I am?!?!

Thanks, ladies! You've made me feel better. I guess I just really got irked today, as if the last straw had been sprung, kwim? I was working, and this really nice old lady had been talking to me for a while as she waited for her takeout. After some idle conversation, she asked, "So when are you quitting?" I was pleased, because I thought she was referring to my pregnancy, even though I hadn't said anything about me being pregnant (so I was thinking, "Yay! Yet another person has recognized that I'm pregnant!), and I answer, "At the end of April. Well, actually I'm due at the end of April, so probably a little before that." And she goes, "Oh, you're pregnant?! I didn't know! I was asking because of how busy it is in here!" And then she goes on and on about how small I am, and how I'm not going to get very large, and how I look great, yadda yadda yadda. Basically, even though she was being really nice and complimenting me and saying things which SHOULD make any girl happy, I just couldn't help but be annoyed. I felt like my belly was just standing out there for everyone to see, and she looks right at it and pretends to see nothing. I mean, there's a BABY in there, y'know?? It's okay to comment on size!
And my mom's friend really bugged me the other day, because she had been saying to my mom that she didn't believe I was showing. So my mom (who of course thinks I look brilliantly pregnant) tells me to take off my coat and show her my big belly. I do so (and I'm already annoyed by this point), and her friend just kind of makes this face (she didn't even smile at all) and says, "Oh, well, she's got a little bump there. Not much. But she'll grow!" I'm thinking, "I've already grown A TON! Why can't anyone else see this, especially if they know how small I was before?!?!"
Ugh. Sorry. I didn't mean for that to turn into a ramble again.

I bi-amp my keyboard high end with this and it sounds much better than my old Crown amp.
I am satisfied with the kit. I must confess that I imagined something without quality and failed. It was not what I found, it works great with power to stimulate a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 10.1 speakers. The best is that the kit can be improved through exchange of some components. Congratulations for this beautiful kit.
Nice little amp with decent quality parts. It does have some hum, but there is info online that can help you with that. Most people do some mods on it and I did too. Bypassing the electrolytic capacitors with 250V 0.1uF film caps will improve the highs. I reduced hum by converting the output stage to triode mode, and this allowed me to get rid of negative feedback. Now it is audiophile quality with good dynamics and clarity. A great way to try tubes and a great value!

"Ruth, Musial, Mantle, Will Ferrell."
In addressing the baseball crowd in Peoria, Ariz., comedian Will Ferrell said, "Who would have thought that one day those names would be synonymous? Show of hands — scratch that, never mind."
The star of "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy," "Elf" and several sports-related flicks played all nine positions and coached for 10 teams in five Arizona ballparks Thursday in a spring-training blitz chronicled for an HBO special.
Ferrell started at noon in an Oakland Athletics uniform at shortstop and ended eight and a half hours later, playing right field for San Diego in the ninth inning.
"When I embarked on this journey way back at breakfast," Ferrell said, "I thought to myself, 'Could I do it?' The answer is yes."
Memorabilia from his journey is to be sold at auction on MLB.com with proceeds going to Cancer for College and Stand Up to Cancer.
He hugged a guy in an elf suit as he left Mesa, held up a sign saying "Remember These Games Don't Count" as impromptu third base coach for the Chicago Cubs, struck out twice on three pitches each, watched two home runs sail over his head, and chased the ball around the outfield in left field for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Ferrell wore No. 19 for every team except his last one. He didn't want to wear the late Tony Gwynn's number, so donned No. 20 for the Padres.
When it was over, he took the public address microphone to the infield and recounted his day.
"I brought passion to the field, dedication, ability and a lot of ignorance," Ferrell said. The ball moves fast out there, a lot faster than it looks on television. It's like a speeding bullet. It's horrible, terrifying."
His caravan took him from Mesa to Tempe to Scottsdale. From there, he helicoptered across north Phoenix to Glendale, making a triumphant landing in the nick of time in center field at the Camelback Ranch ballpark where the San Francisco Giants and Chicago White Sox were entering the ninth.
In his final stop, he also took the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers and got San Diego's Rico Noel, the only batter he faced, to bounce out to the pitcher.
At the end of his remarks after the game, he dropped out of character. Ferrell introduced Craig Pollard, founder of Cancer for College, saying the organization had given 2,000 scholarships to children with cancer over the past 20 years.
"On a serious, real note, what a day," he said. "Thank you all, thanks to MLB, thanks to my family, to our production team and especially to Craig Pollard."
The actor's rapid baseball journey also commemorated the time, 50 years ago, that Bert Campaneris played all nine positions in a game.
"Was I the best player on the field today?" Ferrell said. "Maybe, maybe."
Then he led the crowd in a chant — "May-be, may-be, may-be."
A scandalous role for Washington
HBO says "Scandal" star Kerry Washington will play Anita Hill in a film about Clarence Thomas' 1991 Supreme Court confirmation hearings. The film will be titled "Confirmation," and Washington is also among its executive producers.
Hill's sexual harassment allegations against Thomas put the issue at the center of a fierce national debate. Hill became a hero and a target, while Thomas was confirmed as an associate justice.
Last year saw the release of "Anita," a documentary by the Oscar-winning filmmaker Freida Mock about the Brandeis University law professor. HBO didn't give other casting details or an air date for "Confirmation" in its announcement.
Show postponed
The Gordon Lightfoot show scheduled for 8 p.m. Saturday at the Andiamo Celebrity Showroom in Warren has been postponed because of an unforeseen illness. A makeup date will be decided soon. Ticketholders can call the Andiamo box office at 586-268-3200. Check www.andiamoshowroom.com for updates.

Feminism and the Women's Movement used to be front and center on the news, now the movement has stalled out, or in some cases, gone backwards. Is it because we're closer to being equals, or because women have lost interest?
sort by best latest
A little of both. Here in America Women have gained superiority in many areas. Medicaid for women with breast cancer but not men in some states, rape clinics for women only but none for men only (or boys only), men being put down openly but you can't dare say something bad about a woman. On top of that many of the extreme feminist became about talking down on women who chose to stay home and raise their families instead of only having a career in the work force. I have been spoken to in rude ways by a few women because I have no issue staying home and raising my children. I had a career, I saved money and invested now it's family time. I see that as ideal and many femenist see that as me be run over by my husband. I am all for equality but not superiority or attacking those who wish to do what is right for them.

Gnucash is the best open source alternative to most of the commercial accounting apps out there. I have been using it for 2 years & except for some getting used to the new way of doing things, I feel that it can beat most of the accounting apps hands down...
Lowest Rated
I have been using Quicken for 20 years, but I have always been dissatisfied. Quicken is limited, and they never seem to make progress quickly enough. It seems like they are always working against the user. So I have been following Gnucash for many years, waiting for a time when it might be an acceptable alternative. Unfortunately, Gnucash is not even close to being mature software yet. The documentation is excellent. Very rare to see excellent documentation in a free-software project. However, the software itself (under Windows 8) does not work at all. The stable version 2.4.13 will not even open. I am sitting and looking at the start-up screen now on my computer, which has frozen at the splash screen. Version 2.5.5 (unstable) lives up to its name. Although it gets past the splash screen, it crashes when attempting to save a transaction into PostgreSQL. So, I will continue to monitor this project. Maybe in another 10 years...

Signature Products Group
SPG: Signature Products Group
Based out of Salt Lake City, Utah, SPG has been manufacturing and distributing a variety of outdoor tools, clothing, accessories, and more since 2001. In addition to their own genuine licensed products, they have built strong partnerships with brands such as Under Armour, Black Rhino, Browning, and Ducks Unlimited. They emphasize quality and authenticity above everything else.
The Challenge
In addition to their own stores, SPG sells their products through hundreds of different retailers throughout the U.S. These retailers are broken up into categories, such as "white-space retailers" and "buy-groups," that come with their own unique opportunities. They were looking for a way to both increase sales in all categories and track their progress with each retailer.
- SPG wanted a CRM tool that offered the flexibility to adapt to their non-traditional structure.
- SPG also wanted a tool that would allow them to identify and quantify unique opportunities across each of their different retailers in order to increase sales throughout their business.
The Solution
SPG chose OroCRM over Salesforce due to its flexibility and its wealth of different features, capabilities and innovative ecosystem. For instance:
- OroCRM is easily customizable, which was key for SPG's unique needs.
- OroCRM offers implementation and support in one easy and accessible package. The Oro team is also completely transparent and backed by a powerful community focused on giving SPG exactly what they need, rather than on upselling them.
- OroCRM ultimately gives SPG's sales department better control over their sales force and customer management, as well as their ability to track sales.

As we worked on the Hazon Seal, I was tremendously amazed by how our Hillel was able to find new students who had felt left out in other Jewish spaces because of their sustainable ideals. And as I learned more, I was personally surprised by the extent to which Jewish ideals really align with sustainability.
Would you like your synagogue's weekly kiddush to be healthier, more delicious, and less wasteful? Want to cut the energy costs of an aging building? Advocate for clean energy in your community? Or reignite students' curiosity about Jewish tradition through hands-on, outdoor learning?
Many institutions want to engage in healthier, more humane, and more sustainable behaviors, but don't know where to start. Others have already begun – be it starting a garden, composting food waste, or installing LED light bulbs – but don't know how to keep up the momentum. The Hazon Seal of Sustainability provides a roadmap to advance sustainability-related education, action, and advocacy in the Jewish community.
From 2016 – 2017, the Hazon Seal of Sustainability engaged over three dozen organizations across the country. Synagogues, day schools, camps, social service agencies, Hillels, and other Jewish institutions each made meaningful, measurable steps towards increasing their sustainability.
Applications for the Winter 2018 cohort of the Hazon Seal of Sustainability are now open and will be accepted on a rolling basis until January 12, 2018.Apply now! View application questions

Hurricanes, earthquakes, floods... and chicken coops
October 3rd, 2017
by Judith Belasco October 3rd, 2017 | 13 Tishrei 5778 Dear All, My family built our sukkah this past Sunday. I felt an uneasy juxtaposition between the joy of this holiday – freely choosing to create and decorate a temporary home in which we will share our abundance with friends – and the cruel fate of so many that now find themselves forced into temporary homes. From Puerto Rico and Florida to India and Nepal, the devastation and destruction from climate change is a new normal. We can't let ourselves see this as a problem in some other place that someone else needs to fix. This[...]

Sign | Seal | Deliver
June 29th, 2017
from Judith Belasco June 29th, 2017 | 5th of Tamuz, 5777 Dear all, Last year, from the bimah at Greenburgh Hebrew Center, a shul outside NYC, there was a reminder to attend the annual meeting and vote to approve the budget. I overheard the whispers of two men discussing the budget: "We are saving money on our electric bill…" "Really?" "We actually have solar panels on our roof…" I couldn't help but smile. In 2013, with help from Hazon, Rabbi Barry Kenter led Greenburgh Hebrew Center to install 200 solar panels on its roof. The panels meet more than half of GHC's annual electricity demand, reducing[...]

Composting at Hannah Senesh
January 17th, 2017
As part of their three Hazon Seal Sustainability projects, Hannah Senesh Community Day School in Brooklyn, NY is expanding their compost program. Notably, they've purchased a second composting barrel; this barrel allows students to set one batch of compost aside to decompose, while still being able to add new food scraps to the other barrel. Though Hannah Senesh has composted for a few years, they previously had no choice but to take breaks from collecting scraps when their single barrel filled up. Their new system allows the school to keep the cycle of composting consistent throughout the school year, keeping[...]
Seal Sites at the Food Conference
January 5th, 2017
Hannukah, New Year's Eve, AND hundreds of Jewish foodies and environmentalists... all at the Hazon Food Conference. Last week, six Seal sites -- DU Hillel, CSU Hillel, Moishe House Boulder, B'nai Jeshurun, Ramah in the Rockies, Congregation Bonai Shalom -- joined together to learn, share, and celebrate Jewish food and sustainability. The conference included an in-depth session about the Hazon Seal and the first in-person meeting for Hazon Seal sites from across the country. Hody Nemes, Manager of Greening and Climate Initiatives at Hazon, said, "At the beginning of 2016, the Hazon Seal was just an exciting dream. Now, after hundreds of[...]
What happens to a lulav after Sukkot?
October 27th, 2016
Two weeks ago, right after Yom Kippur, families and communities began erecting beautiful Sukkot. Decorated with gourds, topped with bamboo, tree branches, or corn stalks, these sukkot have provided a temporary home for Jews across the world for eight days. That was yesterday. Today, those Sukkot are coming down-- along with tons of schach, organic material that covers the top of the Sukkah. On the Upper West Side in New York City, twelve congregations, organized in partnership with Hazon Seal site B'nai Jeshurun, are doing good with their post-Sukkot waste. Through a unique partnership with the New York City Department[...]
Full-Circle Sustainability at CSU Hillel

About the Seal
Many institutions want to engage in healthier, more humane, and more sustainable behaviors, but don't know where to start. Others have already begun – be it starting a garden, composting food waste, or installing LED light bulbs – but don't know how to keep up the momentum. The Hazon Seal of Sustainability provides a roadmap to advance sustainability-related education, action, and advocacy in the Jewish community.
The Hazon Seal certifies that a Jewish organization has committed to meet a set of criteria marking it as a good world citizen with regard to its food and environmental practices, treatment of animals, and impact on climate change.
The Hazon Seal is capable of driving significant change within, and ultimately beyond the Jewish community in the next seven years. Specifically, the Hazon Seal provides:
- A roadmap to healthier food, less waste, meaningful JOFEE education, a lower carbon footprint, and more
- An international network of Jewish organizations committed to sustainability, learning with and from one another
- An annual certification to celebrate success and highlighting the progress of leaders in the field of sustainability
The Hazon Seal offers 3 user-friendly online audits:
- Food, Animal Welfare, & Food Justice – Food purchased, prepared, and distributed by the organization (e.g., meat reduction, nutrition, CSAs, pesticides, fair trade, composting)
- Facilities & Energy – The physical building, energy systems, and waste stream (e.g., lighting, energy efficiency, solar energy, water efficiency, heating and cooling, recycling)
- Healthy Ecosystems – Landscaping and outdoor ecosystems, human health in the "indoor ecosystem," and transportation (e.g., green cleaning, biking, pest management, toxins, native landscaping)
The audits help institutions evaluate what they're already doing well in the realm of sustainability, while offering ideas for improvement and inspiration for new projects. A wealth of resources — greening guides and Jewish environmental curricula — are attached to the audits. After taking an audit, institutions choose three substantive projects appropriate for their institution and implement them over the course of the year, with advice and guidance from Hazon (where helpful).

Sample Projects
Institutions that take a Hazon Seal audit gain access to a menu of education, action, or advocacy project ideas. In order to receive Hazon Seal certification, institutions need to complete three projects with lasting impact on their institution. Sample project ideas include:
Food, Animal Welfare, & Food Justice
- Hillel Day School (Farmington Hills, MI) is expanding their garden to provide fresh produce throughout the winter to supply their salad bar and feed the entire school population. Students and staff are working together to assemble the protected winter garden as a community-building exercise. The school received a mini-grant from Hazon to buy the necessary equipment, including seeds, soil, and pots and is receiving guidance with a nearby farm. The fruits of their labor will hopefully include local, organic spinach, lettuce, radishes, and even strawberries.
- Colorado State University Hillel (Fort Collins, CO) is working to source the majority of its food, including eggs, from local farms — and their own backyard. They built a small vegetable garden and received a donated CSA share. Students are participating in trainings to prepare for building a chicken coop and raising egg-laying hens, with guidance from the Jewish Initiative for Animals (JIFA). Over 300 students benefit from this more sustainable food served at Hillel meals…and the scraps end up in Hillel's new composter.
- B'nai Jeshurun (Manhattan, NY) started hosting regular Green Kiddushes after Saturday morning services. They purchased reusable tablecloths, silverware, and dishware, which will save thousands of dollars and prevent the use of 26,000 disposable paper plates, 5,800 single-use tablecloths and 24,000 pieces of plastic cutlery from going to the landfill annually. The purchase of the reusable items was funded by their sustainability-themed #GivingTuesday campaign, which was designed with input from Hazon staff. B'nai Jeshurun also completed an LED lighting upgrade.
Facilities & Energy
- Adat Shalom Synagogue (Farmington Hills, MI) changed all the lights in their main sanctuary to LED bulbs, saving money, energy, and carbon emissions. To continue the upgrade, they will be swapping out the older energy-intensive lights on their Yizkor memorial wall to energy-efficient LEDs.
- Oshman Family JCC (Palo Alto, CA) purchased all compostable utensils across campus, and created consistency among all garbage and composting receptacles. After learning about the importance of signage on a Hazon Seal webinar, staff and campers created catchy signs that encourage recycling and composting. These changes will allow them to properly dispose of compost during large-scale events on campus.
- Greenburgh Hebrew Center built solar panels on-site as part of Hazon's Jewish Greening Fellowship, thereby saving money, cutting its contribution to the climate crisis, expressing its commitment to Jewish values of stewardship, and setting an early example for families and other congregations.
Healthy Ecosystems
- Moishe House in Boulder, CO led a learning series for young Boulder Jews promoting biking as a sustainable form of transportation. The series included a "Bike for Beer" event in partnership with a local brewery, an event on bike safety and maintenance, and a "Tour de Boulder" which included a tour of the city to encourage biking.
- Hebrew Institute of Riverdale's (Bronx, NY) green team researched eco-friendly, chemical-free options in renovating their kids' play areas. They provided their youth department with resources about purchasing green playground equipment, toys, and art supplies. They also hosted an e-waste collection event to help congregants responsibly dispose of toxic electronics and lightbulbs.
- Hannah Senesh Community Day School (Brooklyn, NY) began its first-ever school recycling and composting program. Middle school students collect food waste at lunch and are responsible for processing the compost on site in a rotary composter in their back garden. Through the Hazon Seal, they are also working on creating a second, food-bearing garden to incorporate into their elementary and middle school curriculum.
- Jewish Family Service of San Diego started exclusively using toxin-free green cleaning products across its facilities.
- Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center (Falls Village, CT) created a "JOFEE" map for visitors to explore its beautiful campus, highlighting sustainability features like solar panels, barnyard, and hiking trails. Isabella Freedman is also installing insulation in the attics of several buildings to reduce energy use.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Japanese yen plunged to its lowest level against the U.S. dollar in more than four years on Friday after data confirmed Japanese investors were purchasing more foreign assets, with more losses seen likely as the Bank of Japan's massive monetary easing takes hold.
The dollar, on the other hand, rallied broadly as recent strong U.S. data in the labor market - last Friday's robust nonfarm payrolls report and Thursday's weekly jobless claims data - sparked talk the Federal Reserve may scale back its asset purchases.
With the Japanese currency on Thursday breaching the psychological and technical level of 100 to the dollar, most analysts expect the yen to continue to weaken as the Bank of Japan embarks on its $1.4 trillion bond buying plan.
Some have called for the dollar to rise to 105 yen this summer and 110 by the end of the year. While BoJ policy has weighed on the yen, its weakness against the dollar is just as much a result of an improving U.S. economic landscape.
"In some ways, there has been too much focus on the yen here and while breaking into triple digit territory is always exciting, the strong U.S. payrolls and jobless claims data in recent weeks shows that the United States is very much back in play," said Steven Englander, head of G10 strategy at CitiFX, a division of Citigroup in New York.
"People had been flirting with the idea that Europe's growth picture was getting better and Japan was improving, but the reality is that the U.S. is the only game in town and what we are seeing in the yen is a manifestation of that," he said.
The Japanese currency fell to 101.98 yen per U.S. dollar, the lowest since October 2008. The dollar last traded at 101.58 yen, up 1 percent on the day.
Traders said the yen extended falls after breaking through a reported options barrier at 101.50 yen and as stop-loss dollar buy orders were triggered above 101.55 and 101.60 yen. Another options barrier was said to lurk at 102.00 yen.
Hedging currencies in the option market is one of the biggest sources of activity in the spot, or cash, market. Sizeable option-related demand often is forced to come into the market and trade in the direction of the breakout in price, either to unwind hedges or to cover new exposures, or both.
"The break of the 100-yen level unleashed the animal spirits," said Marc Chandler, global head of currency strategy at Brown Brothers Harriman in New York.
Overnight, data showed that Japanese investors turned net buyers of foreign bonds in the last two weeks. They bought 309.9 billion yen ($3.1 billion) in foreign bonds in the week through May 4 after purchasing 204.4 billion yen ($2 billion) the previous week, according to the Ministry of Finance. <JP/CAP>
"With yields nonexistent in Japan, investors are forced to search for yield elsewhere, driving down the value of the yen while boosting currencies with highly-rated sovereigns like the U.S. Dollar," said Christopher Vecchio, currency analyst at DailyFX in New York. "With the new trend developing, the next leg of Japanese yen weakness has begun."
The yen has lost nearly 9 percent against the U.S. currency since the BoJ announced aggressive monetary easing on April 4, and was down over 17 percent so far this year.
Analysts at UBS were also optimistic, raising their one- and three-month forecasts to 102 and 105 yen respectively, both from 95 yen previously.
Other analysts, however, were more cautious, believing that after hitting lofty levels in dollar/yen, gains in the greenback could slow.
"The burst of activity could be reasonably temporary," said Nick Bennenbroek, managing director and head of currency strategy at Wells Fargo in New York, citing an extremely short speculative positioning in the yen.
"We would need fresh central bank signals to spur another leg higher - a hawkish Fed and a dovish BoJ. I don't think those signals are forthcoming anytime soon."
The focus now shifts to the G7 meeting in the United Kingdom on Friday and Saturday, where currencies - especially the yen's weakness - could be up for discussion. And it could be a contentious debate. Even before the break of the 100-yen level, the U.S. government had been closely monitoring Japan's efforts to reflate its economy.
Reflation is in the early stages, but the yen has already dropped nearly 32 percent against the dollar since autumn last year.
On Friday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said Japan had "growth issues" that needed to be dealt with but that its attempts to stimulate its economy needed to stay within the bounds of international agreements to avoid competitive devaluations.
The euro, meanwhile, hit a three-year high of 132.25 yen and was last at 131.82, up 0.5 percent. But it was down 0.5 percent against the dollar to $1.2979 after hitting a one-month low of $1.2935, according to Reuters data.
Some $4.8 billion in yen changes hands, using Reuters Dealing data, while $4.2 billion in euros changed hands.
The dollar gained 2.6 percent against the yen this week but that is only the best week since April 5. The euro fell 1 percent against the dollar this week, the worst since the week of March 29.

I activated my Amazon Echo for the first time in December. It's quickly become one of my favorite tech gadgets.
Many people quickly compare Echo to other virtual assistants like Siri and Google Now. But Amazon's speaker, which responds to either "Alexa" or "Amazon," is quicker to respond to questions and understands my voice much better than those rival services.
And thanks to its excellent audio system, with seven different microphones for listening and a 360º omni-directional audio grille for speaking, Amazon Echo works exceedingly well wherever I am in my home.
In many ways, it's transformed the way I live in my apartment. And there's a ton you can do with your Echo.

The Alberta Democratic Party is a right-wing political party from the Canadian province of Alberta. It was formed by former members of the main Conservative Party, these members were those who rejected monarchy (as Conservatism in Canada supports high ties to the Queen).
Similar to the historical Southern Democrats in the United States, the Alberta Democrats wish to maintain independence from the British monarch, and form a solid Canadian identity. Like American conservatives, Alberta Democrats oppose gun control, follow traditional Christian values and believe in small government regulation of businesses.
Alberta Democrats also want to strip French of its official status and make English the national language of Canada.
It is these beliefs and goals that separates them from the Conservative Party, despite sharing some similarities such as the preservation of English tradition, Christianity and gun rights. The Alberta Democrats are not in any way, affiliated with the New Democratic Party, which is a left-wing political group, which also operates in Alberta.
Its sister party is the Alberta Conservatives, also an off-shoot of the Conservative Party. Its current leader is the Joseph Mackenzie, who is the current premier of the Province of Alberta.
The Alberta Democratic Party was a result of the growing rift between members of the Conservative Party. While many people in Alberta considered themselves "conservative", they had little knowledge of what the Conservative Party believed in, mistaking and assuming it to be similar to American conservatism.
With growing anti-monarchy sentiments in Alberta, especially from rural Canadians, this created a problem for the Conservative Party. In July 5, 2014, the rivalling factions decided that the Conservative Party could no long stay together and that an independant party had to be formed to govern the province of Alberta.
Joseph Mackenzie, a former representative of the Conservative Party (known for his anti-monarch sentiments) broke ties with Stephen Harper and took influences from Canada's southern neighbor, the United States. An avid historian, he studied the history of politics during the American Civil War and wanted to find a party similar to what American conservatives believed it, which also included a Right to Bear Arms.
Eventually in Calgary, he and his followers announced the formation of the Alberta Democratic Party, meant to combat the left-wing New Democratic Party's growing influence and to stop the NDP from coming into power. In Edmonton, similarly, another off-shoot known as the Alberta Conservatives formed. Like the Alberta Democrats, the Alberta Conservatives had broke away from the Conservative Party due to conflicting differences in political beliefs.
During the provincial electons, Joseph Mackenzie defeated NDP candidate Thomas Mulcair. Now with the Alberta Democrats in power, the shift to a new style of conservative politics began to take hold in Alberta. Mackenzie's provincial government began to take down all names referring to any royalty, and formed an independant law enforcement organzation known as the Alberta Provincial Police. Wrestling policing powers with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the APD eventually gained the upper hold. Anti-RCMP sentiments also grew in Alberta, when Mackenzie reinforced a contrevoursial law which allowed Alberta citizens to open fire on police conducting unlawful siezure of their firearms.
Gun rights were an essential goal of the Alberta Democratic Party, and eventually, the province exercised its constitutional power to adminster firearms independantly. Therefore, the RCMP has forced to transfer all of its information on Alberta firearms owners to the APD.
These moves earned Alberta a fusilage of political scrutiny, from both Canadian liberals and Canadian conservatives, with both accusing Mackenzie of "Americanizing" Canada. Other moves by Mackenzie included a bill proposal to outlaw same-sex marriage in Alberta, as well as to outlaw abortion which is still be reviewed in the provincial court.
Independance from foreign powers
The Alberta Democrats are highly opposed to subjection to any type of monarchy, and this was the main reason for the rift between the Alberta Democrats and the Conservative Party. When Mackenzie took power, the Alberta provincial courts legalized taking down all royal names and title from government bodies. Because of this, there is currently an attempt in Alberta to strip the RCMP of its policing powers in the province, for one reason being that it contains the name "Royal", and the second reason being that Albertans believe that the RCMP is turning into a Gestapo-like police force.
The Alberta Democratic Party is considered a Christian-right party, with 78% of its members stating that Christianity was an essential part of their lives. The APD wants Alberta to adhere to the Anglican Church, and make it the representing religion of Alberta, and Canada. They also want to limit religious activities of non-Christian groups, including Muslims and oppose Islamic law becoming part of Alberta or Canadian politics.
Same-sex marriage
The Alberta Democrats are also opposed to the current legal status of same-sex marriage in every province, and look to outlaw it in Alberta. Bill C-89, introduced by Joseph Mackenzie also known as the "Alberta Religious Freedom Bill" would exempt churches from endorsing same-sex marriages since it violated Christian political beliefs and that of Freedom of Religion as granted by the Charter.
Farmers rights
The Alberta Democrats also fight for the rights of farmers and rural Canadians, encouraging free-trade with the United States, seeking to improve the cattle industry in Alberta. This is what allowed the Alberta Democrats to gain power in the province, eventually drawing many farmers who formerly voted for the New Democratic Party. Joseph Mackenzie came from a rural background, though an Ontarian rural background and owns a ranch,
Gun rights
Unlike other Canadian political parties, the Alberta Democrats is one of the few rare that ever pushed gun rights to the fore-front of its goals. It is thanks to the Alberta Democrats, as well as the Conservative Party that Alberta's Provincial Charter, Section Three in particular, contains an American-style Right to Bear Arms.
The APD argues that gun ownership is not just an American tradition, but an English tradition, and that even Tories had guns during the American Revolution. It is because of the APD, as well as the Conservative Party and the Alberta Conservatives that Alberta successfully opted-out of the RCMP's Canadian Firearms Program, and now independently administers firearms legislation.
The Alberta Provincial Police now takes care of firearms licensing in Alberta, not longer the RCMP. Seeing this as an influence, the other western provinces, British Columbia and Manitoba followed and also added a Right to Bear Arms in their provincial charters.
Alberta gives its citizens the most freedoms with firearms, and the Mackenzie government successfully passed Castle Ground and Stand your Ground laws, allowing Alberta citizens to open fire on intruders, trespassers or police conducting unlawful seizure of firearms.

Southern Region Student Network (SRSN) Purpose and Goals
ACA President Bradley T. Erford has sent a letter on behalf of the association to the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs providing feedback on the first draft of the 2016 CACREP accreditation standards. ACA applauds the focus on clarification, simplification, and unification and endorses the proposed requirement to standardize all counseling programs, regardless of specialty, at 60 credits. ACA also proposes an end to the student affairs program area and to continue the requirement to maintain membership in ACA and its divisions.
To read the letter in its entirety, click here.
The American Counseling Association would like to thank the members of the ACA CACREP Revision Task Force for their assistance: Simone Lambert (Chair), Retta Brown, Gary Goodnough, Julian McCullough, and MJ Raleigh.

Stolen CSS code recovered at The Geekzoners blog - arrests likely
He has enabled us to use our own CSS code, including a 'sandbox' - a feature that enables us to test new code before unleashing it on the public at large.
I know almost zero about CSS, and have done very little coding of anything in years. Brad Stewart answered my call for help, and provided me with a customised helping of CSS code, which gave my blog a unique look, which was one of my requirements at the time.
Since then, I have gone on to steal code from Juha Saarinens Techsploder Blog, and from the Tech & Chips Takeaway of Kelvin Yong.
I have not just copied and pasted - all the code I have taken, I have studied, and figured out how and why it does what it does, and then customised it to suit this blog.
I have gone for a fairly minimalist look, and am still undecided on the fate of the seperator bar with the yellow star (Yes, star, you could be up for the chop).
So this is really just a thankyou to those I have plagiarised in the name of good (??) web design.
Next up may be a graphic to replace the text title of "The Geekzoner" at the top of my blog, and then some work on the cluttered unsimple** sidebar I have.
The more information link below, leads to a list of all Geekzone blogs (Not a huge list. We may be small, but at least we're Geeky).
** Unsimple: "Me fail English? - Thats unpossible"
## Update: It has been bought my attention that the layout is fux0red in Firefox 18.104.22.168 under Linux, and also in Konqueror (another popular Linux browser). I will be working on this in the very near future.
In the meantime, you could either:
- Put up with it
- Subscribe to my RSS feed instead
- or try other browsers under Linux

hehe... looking good here Tony, I like to call this "knowledge sharing" rather than code stealing, there's fine difference between the two.
I studied Juha's CSS code too, but now I'm more understand of the blog HTML structure and able to tweak around abit to create a CSS for the blog...
For mine, there are times i feel that my blog is too purple... but i guess that will be the unique point of my blog :-D
Comment by bradstewart, on 31-Jul-2006 15:22

You probably want to change the font size and the leading on the quote block... doesn't go with the font you're using for the blog body copy. :)
