Jake Chapman directs music video for Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes
Artist Jake Chapman has created a music video for Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes' new track, Wild Flowers. We talk to him about how the promo was made.
Jake Chapman's promo for Wild Flowers – the new single from Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes' forthcoming album Modern Ruin – is, perhaps unsurprisingly, not your typical music video.
"I imagined it would be quite nice to do something without him in it," Chapman explains. "I quite liked the idea of just making a schematic set of pictures that were associated with the words [of the song]. Some of the images are quite banal stock images that you'd use for really low-fi things…. As well as using quite uninteresting, generic stock footage, we also realised that we had a backlog of our own stock footage that we could use.
"I thought it would be quite interesting to make a video that seemed kind of inappropriate," he continues. "Because the song is quite tender in a sense. I just thought it would be interesting to do something that was almost slightly disparate, rather than trying to eke out the nuances of the narrative. I thought why don't we approach it like someone who was autistic making a video."
Chapman has previously directed videos for the likes of Spiritualised and PJ Harvey, and a recurring theme in his approach is this avoidance of narrative. "I once did a test video for Rhys Ifans' band, and instead of doing a video of the band, we did a video in the band, which was just a series of linked colonoscopy footage," he says.
"We did a video for Spiritualised, for You Lie You Cheat [shown below], which was essentially chucking a load of cameras out of a tower block," he continues. "I'm interested in a structural approach to making films, rather than a narrative approach."
While Chapman is best known for his painting and sculptural works created with his brother Dinos, he says that the duo see the music videos as part of their wider body of artistic work. "I see it as one seamlessly endless sequence of stuff," he says, "which is intimately connected. I think it's very difficult to see a separation between one activity and another … because it's shown in a gallery [doesn't necessarily] make it any better.
"Is this a work of art? Well, it's made by an artist, so I guess it's a work of art. If you get a plumber in to do some plumbing, it's plumbing, isn't it?"
Modern Ruin by Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes is released on January 20. The deluxe version features a book, including a short story by Jake Chapman, and an artwork by Carter. More info is at internationaldeathcult.com

Happy Monday, sweet friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! It was the year of Legos around here, so I have spent the past several days bent over little instruction books, trying to put together a bunch of teeny tiny pieces in the right configuration. It's a good thing those Cs are so cute… 😉
It seems like once Christmas is over, people start thinking about two things: fitness and organization. Today I have a little bit of both for you! I love that the new year is the perfect time for a fresh start, a new beginning. Anything seems possible, and it really can be… if you have a plan. When it comes to health and fitness, I've learned a lot about the importance of planning recently, so I thought I'd share my story {and a pretty printable!} with you all today!
My Fitness Story
You see, I used to love exercise and always made it a priority in my life. However, over the past few years as blogging has turned into our family's full time business, I started pushing fitness further and further down my priority list. I've had a few spurts of exercising consistently here and there, but inevitably, life would get busy and I would fall away from the habit.
Right after Halloween this year, though, I decided I was fed up. I was sick of putting my health on the back burner and feeling sluggish and low energy all the time as a result. I knew that this whole healthy lifestyle thing wouldn't happen on it's own, though, so I made a plan. I chose a workout program, came up with a healthy eating strategy, and found some friends to keep me accountable. And for the last 50-ish days, I have been consistently working out, eating healthier meals, and sticking to said plan!
I've lost almost 10 pounds, but the thing I'm even more excited about is that I feel like I have energy again! My excuse of, "I don't have time to exercise because I have so much work to do" was completely backward. Because I'm taking the time to take care of myself, I'm accomplishing more in my days and my productivity is soaring. It really is a win-win!
Printable Fitness Tracker
If you've been around this blog for long, you know that any time I need to get organized or make a change in my life, I make a printable. It's just what I do! So of course when I started down this road to being more healthy, I needed a pretty printable to help me keep track of everything.
It's pretty simple. Each day I write down what type of workout I'm doing and how long I spent exercising. There's room to write down what I ate for each meal, and even a little spot to track my water intake. Having a record of what I've done each day keeps me accountable, and it's great to be able to look back and see everything that I've accomplished!
With the new year right around the corner, I thought some of you might be working on your health and fitness goals, too, so I decided to share my little fitness tracker with you! You can snag your free fitness tracker below!
{Click here to download your free printable fitness tracker!}
Simplify: 35+ Printables to Help You Organize Your Life
There's more where this came from! The fitness tracker is a sneak peek of my eBook Simplify: 35+ Printables to Help You Organize Your Life, which launched recently with tons of printables matching this same color scheme and format! (They also match The Intentional Life Planner perfectly! Yippee!)
Years ago, I began putting together a home binder to help keep myself and my family organized in several areas– from fitness and finance to goals and planning and more! When I realized that others were having the same struggles in the areas of organization and productivity as I had, I decided to share my home binder in hopes that it would help other people streamline and organize their lives just like it had helped me, and Simplify: 35+ Printables to Help You Organize Your Life was born. If organization is on your to-do list, be sure to click the button below to find out more.
Have a happy, healthy week, friends!

Hello, are you there? Is this medical practice still active or did the physicians retire?
These are not questions that you want your patients and clients to ask.
Yet, it is precisely what they are thinking when healthcare facilities, throw a website together and then expect to get traffic from it without ever adding new information.
Without continually providing fresh content, you lose the opportunity to keep your patients coming back to view your site and attract prospective patients. Instead of attracting new clients, you become a virtual ghost and everyone "abandons ship" to go elsewhere …your competitors!
The #1 mistake of health sites and medical websites is to publish an online site and then ignore it.
Search engines can differentiate which sites are active and reward them accordingly by ratings. Having your website on page 28 of a search for your keywords means that you might as well not be there. People only contact the medical practices that show up on page one.
Most people are now searching for their health information online and finding their new doctors on the web. Can you afford to squander your most valuable asset- your website and your branding?
Sure, you don't have enough time. There's barely enough time for yourself with patient consultations and charting that new EHR system you installed.
But, here are some reasons why tending to your anemic website is crucial:
- New content that is both interesting and relevant to readers will attract prospective patients, bring referrals and maintain current patients
- Establishes yourself as an authority in your field
- Strengthens your branding and makes you stand out head and shoulders above your colleagues
- Raises your search engine rankings with Google, Bing, Yahoo and others
- Opens opportunities to inform patients about new techniques, new office hours, new staff members
- Gives you the chance to explain procedures through videos so that patients understand, increasing compliance
There is a flood of information available online nowadays, so to stand out, your content must be timely, unique and relevant.
How to Create Great Content for Your Medical Website
There are 7 steps you can implement to have a successful and effective site:
1. Write about information that reflects your knowledge and what you represent.
Create content that you are well versed in and that reflects the specialty you are in. As these articles build, they help your branding and establish you as an authority in your field. Promote yourself, the practice and your services.
2. Make your content interesting but short and easy to understand.
Captivate your readers and engage them. Relate stories that make the point that you are trying to convey (using fictitious names). Write using simple, easy to understand words. Remember, you are communicating with the public, not your colleagues.
3. Include links that take the viewer to videos and audio files.
Incorporating videos and audio files allows the viewer to get a better grasp on new techniques, procedures and instructions that you would like to convey. Remember, a picture is worth 1000 words. (And having them makes the search engines rank your site higher!)
4. Incorporate relevant long-tailed keywords.
Identify what phrases or groups of 3 words that patients or prospective clients will use to search for you or the type of healthcare that you provide. Having them on your site will ensure that your name pops up when they do the computer search.
5. Make your site easy to scan.
Make your website pages uncluttered so that the eyes can focus on the areas of importance without getting lost. Have white spaces break up the content.
Format the text into short paragraphs and short pages. If people see a mountain of information, it is unlikely that they will try to scale it.
"Entice them without giving away the complete show". If you elicit interest and curiosity, the viewer is more likely to call for more information or return for another article.
6. Check and recheck your content.
Use the spell-checker tool and proofread several times to ensure that the grammar is correct. If there are many gross errors, it clearly reflects badly on you. Patients will wonder what other mistakes you are making.
If writing is not your forte, seriously consider hiring a professional writer to create the content.
7. Avoid banners and Adwords.
Besides banners becoming a distraction, you don't want your viewers clicking on a link that takes them to a different website. You worked hard to get your readers. Don't send them elsewhere!
Keep this in mind when creating your content:
- Your viewers are quick on the delete button. If you make your content boring and dull, they will surely use it!
- Write straight to the point and as short as possible to convey your ideas. If you drone on tediously, people will click out and not return to your site.
- Have tabs on your navigation bar so that viewers know where to get the information they are seeking.
- Have sidebars highlighting special content, events, articles or recent PR
Good luck with your website content. If you don't have one of your own, now is the time to create one! Don't rely on an insurance company to highlight you on their site.
I know that you will do well. To start you off, send for your free copy of "15 Ways to Leverage Your Content for Successful Marketing". Get your gift at: firstname.lastname@example.com.

Budget: You wouldn't think that, after adding $5 trillion to the U.S.' debt, President Obama would seriously claim he's a fiscal hawk. But thanks to a misleading article on CBS' MarketWatch site, that's just what he's doing.
'Since I've been president, federal spending has risen at the lowest pace in nearly 60 years," Obama said on Wednesday. "Think about that."
Advertisement - story continues below
Obama didn't turn to his own Office of Management and Budget to support this fact, or even the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.
Instead, he went to a CBS MarketWatch column by Rex Nutting, which claims spending under Obama has risen by an average of just 1.4%.

"Federal spending," he wrote, "is rising at the slowest pace since Dwight Eisenhower brought the Korean War to an end in the 1950s."

Megacities: Social vulnerability and resilience building
Carsten Butsch - University of Cologne
Access to Healthcare in the fragmented setting of India's fast growing agglomerations
The fast growing cities of India can best be described as a fragmented setting. They do not show medium scaled quarters consisting of homogenous neighbourhoods. At the same time the urban environment in most cases is synonymous with unhealthy living conditions, especially for the poor. The ability to cope with ill health varies grossly between socio-economic groups, as financial restrictions are an important limiting factor for accessing health care. A combination of the concept of access and the theory of the fragmented development will help to identify the most vulnerable groups within emerging megacities and might help to improve public health strategies.
The fast urban growth in India's megacities leads to an also visible disconnection of lifestyles and different groups (social, cultural, 'winners' and 'losers' of the globalization) within one city on a small scale level. As graph 1 illustrates this results in different, parallel existing realities. Contacts between the groups are few and mostly restricted to employment relationships.
Access to Healthcare
Parker defined access to healthcare in 1974 as "the ability to reach, obtain, or afford entrance to services". This early definition shows, that access is not only related to travelling but includes also social and spatial barriers and facilitators. Penchansky and Thomas defined five dimensions of access (cf. Graph 2). Khan and Bhardwaj suggested the matrix shown in graph 3 for the analysis of access. The categories introduced by Penchansky and Thomas are translated into this framework as Accommodation and Acceptability are the aspatial factors in the matrix, Accessibility is the spatial component, Affordability is represented by the costs and the Availability is reflected by the opportunities.
Graph 1: Urban Fragmentation
Graph 2: Dimensions of Access
Research Question
Why and how does the access to health care vary within the emerging megacity of Pune. How do the both sides of the market, demand and supply, perceive and react to these differences?
Graph 3: Matrix for analysing Access
Methods/ Research Areas
Mapping will be used to assess the potential spatial access (cf. Graph 3: Ib),
a representative household survey will provide information on the treatment
seeking behaviour (IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb). In depth interviews (Ib,IIa, Iib) with
participants of this survey will reveal about the individual costs of access as
well as personal barriers and facilitators for accessing certain facilities.
Also expert interviews will be applied on these questions.
Six areas (cf. graph 4) reflect on the one hand different stages of Pune's
growth and on the other hand different income and lifestyle groups. Two
areas are situated, next to each other in the old city centre, A third area is
situated in the former British cantonment housing today upper-middle class residents.The fourth and the fifth area of a middle class are and three slum plots surrounding it. The sixth area is a gated community, which is not only used for housing but also for business purposes, mostly IT.
Graph 4: Research Areas
The research is carried out under the framework of the project "Governing Emerging Megacities: Water, Health and Housing in Pearl-River-Delta, China and Pune, India" Funded by the German Ministry for Research Academic partner for the research is Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute of Environmental Eduction and Research. Institutional Partner is the Pune Municipal Corporation. The Author is member of the Geomed research group at the University of Cologne. Contact: Carsten Butsch.

A few months ago exploding Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones were all the rage, if you didn't have one you weren't cool, if you did have one, you were too hot (because you may have been on fire)
Now though, it's pretty common knowledge that those phones are bad and should have been returned. And 97% of people who had those phones HAVE returned them for a refund or a new non-explodey phone. However because Samsung doesn't like constantly getting calls about housefires that they accidentally started, they've decided to take the last 3% of the phones into their own hands by force….
They're going to release an update on the 19th of December which will stop the phones working. Effectively turning them into large (hopefully safe) paperweights.
So if you just wouldn't listen, and decided that you were ok with your phone/bomb that's too bad! Because the choice is no longer yours. Your phone is broken, get a new one. Time's up.
My only question is, why did it take so long for them to do this anyway?

As the year winds down, many businesses are focused on prioritizing for 2016. A new year brings new opportunities to build your company and take your business to a new level.
But what if your business' success was more dependent on your investment in your employees than you assumed?
A recent workforce study by Towers Watson revealed that employee engagement is low--not just in the United States but across the globe--and only four in 10 employees are highly engaged in the workplace.
About a quarter of employees are disengaged and up to 36 percent feel either unsupported or detached at work. When business success is tied to employee performance, this is a trend businesses of all sizes can't afford.
Developing a robust benefits program is an excellent way for businesses to build employee engagement and motivation. Industry research reveals it's a clear way to succeed: a 2013 Gallup poll found that companies with engaged employees had 10 percent higher customer ratings, 22 percent higher profitability, and 21 percent higher productivity.
Investing in people can be a sound business choice that pays dividends in the long run.
As with any big decision, employers should do their homework before deciding what benefits to offer.
It's important that a benefits program is in sync with your company's talent goals, broader business strategy and meets the needs of every employee. Here are a few questions employers should consider in advance:
Connect the Dots on Talent--When it comes to your employees, do you have specific talent goals? Are you at the stage where you're trying to recruit new talent, better engage the staff you currently have, or focus on retaining people? If recruiting is a priority, for example, focus on offering benefits that cover key areas like health and wellness, financial security and work-life balance. If your focus is on retaining people, however, do some research on the benefits that are most important to your current employees and work to design a benefits program that prioritizes those needs.
Business Reality Check--Is your business established, growing or running into some challenges? Determining where your business stands will help you figure out the resources you can dedicate towards creating and funding a benefits program. If you're just starting out, chances are you won't be able to offer as many benefits and will need to figure out which are most important to keeping your employees engaged. Determine what you can afford to give and then design a benefits program that fits into those parameters.
Workplace Demographics--Is your employee base a generational melting pot mixed with baby boomers, Gen X, and millennials? Offering benefits can't be a one-size fits all approach. The benefits model that suits Gen Y won't be the same model that appeals to baby boomers. Having a broad benefits offering that motivates a range of employees is key.
In addition to a dynamic benefits program, communicating these options to employees is equally important. Each generation receives and interprets information differently--Gen Y, for example, is mobile and social, whereas Baby Boomers may prefer to meet with a benefits professional 1:1 to learn their options.
An investment in your company's most important asset--its people--can have a positive impact in 2016. It will help deepen relationships with your employees, build a productive and healthy workforce, and develop a foundation of trust and loyalty.
In today's competitive business world, only the strongest and fittest survive.
Focusing on employees can be one way to ensure your business stays on top.

Thank you to our co-chairs, the Government of Qatar and the Government of Turkey -- both leaders in the international community's response to the crisis in Syria.
This is the second meeting of the Friends of the Syrian People International Working Group on sanctions.
More than 55 nations are represented here today -- united in our condemnation of the Assad regime's brutality.
United in our support for the aspirations of the Syrian people.
Together we seek to hasten a political change that puts an end to 15 months of violence.
We gather in the shadow of a massacre.
Nothing we say can adequately respond to such an event.
Nor can sanctions alone bring about the change we seek.
But sanctions can play an important role.
Strong sanctions, effectively implemented, aggressively enforced, can help deprive the Syrian regime of the resources it needs to sustain itself and to continue its repression of the Syrian people.
Strong sanctions make clear to the Syrian business community and other supporters of the regime that their future is bleak so long as the Assad regime remains in power.
And strong sanctions can help hasten the day the Assad regime relinquishes power.
So we commend the actions of the Arab League to adopt, for the first time in its history, a strong set of economic sanctions.
We commend the actions of Turkey, whose sanctions are of critical importance, given its position as an immediate neighbor.
We are pleased that the Government of Qatar also took action against Syria International Islamic Bank last week.
And we welcome the expansive sanctions adopted by the European Union and by so many other partners.
Now, to those nations that have not yet adopted formal sanctions against the Syrian regime and its supporters, we urge you to move quickly to do so.
We see no justification for allowing senior members of the Assad regime to have the benefit of accessing the global financial system.
We see no justification for allowing unauthorized funds to flow to the Central Bank of Syria, the Commercial Bank of Syria, or any other financial institution that acts on behalf of this regime.
We see no justification for allowing individuals who provide financial support to the regime to be allowed to use foreign banks.
We see no justification for purchasing Syrian oil. Or for allowing financial institutions in any jurisdiction, or ships flagged in any nation, to facilitate the sale, the insurance, or the transport of Syrian oil.
And there can, of course, be no justification for facilitating the sale of arms to the Assad regime.
Our collective financial sanctions are not intended to target the people of Syria.
The greatest threat to the well-being of the Syrian people is the regime in power there today.
And the longer this regime remains in power, the more the Syrian people will suffer.
The longer Assad's brutality persists, the greater the likelihood of further bloodshed and the greater the risk to a fragile region that is important to the world.
We, the United States, hope that all responsible countries will soon join in taking appropriate economic actions against the Syrian regime, including, if necessary, Chapter 7 action in the UN Security Council, as called for by the Arab League last weekend.
Absent meaningful compliance by the regime with the Annan plan, that is the direction in which we are soon headed.
But in the meantime, we gather here as Friends of the Syrian People.
And as Friends of the Syrian People, our task is to impose maximum financial pressure on the Assad regime and its supporters, as quickly as we can and as effectively as we can, to stop their violence and to yield to conscience and to peaceful political change.
Thank you.

Parama in Sanskrit shall mean "the best". From this understanding we attempt to dedicate and present the best work of art or entertainment for the entertainment world to the public be it in Indonesia or international world.
The motto of Parama Entertainment shall be "do the best", which shall mean that we will give the best, where upon its development in time the art and entertainment world will continue to be in balance with the development of the era and technology. In order to be able to present the best result, Parama Entertainment shall become a company which should always make an effort to prioritize quality rather than quantity which shall not only be applied on merely the work product, but also on the professionalism within the body of Parama Entertainment itself. With such motto, then we shall continue to maintain our existence in the entertainment world be it in Indonesia or internationally.
In a continuous cycle within the body of Parama Entertainment, then we shall apply the same to the world of entertainment business of national or international scale, Parama Entertainment expects to become a balance point and benchmark in the world of the entertainment business.
To become a bridge in the form of a one stop entertainment company by way of providing all the necessities in the entertainment business to the maximum in Indonesia or internationally.
To enhance the quality of the entertainment world in Indonesia to be of the same level with that of the international entertainment world without violating the prevailing norms in Indonesia.

You Only Find What You're Looking For
Author's Note: This is the first SiMF post picked up for reprinting by io9 — I know it will be the first of many!
Extraterrestrial life is a staple of SF and the focus of astrobiology and SETI. Yet whereas SF has populated countless worlds with varying success, from Tiptree's haunting Flenni (Your Haploid Heart) to Lucas' annoying Ewoks, real ETs remain stubbornly elusive: nobody has received a transmission demanding more Chuck Berry, and the data from the planetary probes are maddeningly inconclusive. Equally controversial are the shadowy forms on Martian asteroid ALH84001, although the pendulum has swung toward cautious favoring of the biological possibility after scientists discovered nanobacteria on earth and water on Mars.
In part, we're hobbled by the limits of our technology, including the problems of sample contamination and method-specific artifacts. But we're also severely limited by having a single life sample. Despite its dizzying variations in form and function, extant terrestrial life arose from one source. We know this because our genetic blueprint and its associated molecular machinery are identical across the three domains (archaea, eubacteria, eukarya). So to be able to determine if something is alive, we need to decide what is universal and what is parochial. We stumble through redefinitions each time our paradigms shift or our techniques achieve higher resolution. Worse yet, our practices lag considerably behind our theories.

Genius and the Mobocracy.
New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce,, 1949. Quarto. Original white cloth, lettered in black on the spine and to the front board together with Wright's Red Square device. With supplied dust jacket. Red Square device to the title page, 37 plates, 3 of them double-page. Cloth a little soiled and browning at the edges, as often, endpapers toned with paste-action browning towards the gutter, but overall very good in a supplied, price-clipped, typically tattered, but textually largely complete, jacket. First edition. This copy inscribed on the title page, "To Albert Sincavitch, Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin, '49". Excellent copy of Wright's combined biographical essay on his mentor Louis H. Sullivan and malediction on modern America, publishing a group of previously unseen drawings by Sullivan: "The true basis of every living culture will be found above and beyond this sham wherein both authority and education, for their own safety, are ever ready to combine against the inspiration of a man like Louis H. Sullivan. The net result to you and me is what? The waste of what might have been the best of our lives. We, therefore, no longer have access to inspiration in this promiscuous prodigality of the vast commonplace; the massive mentality we presume to call 'America' ?" (pp.7-8).

Nice photo, VG!

seems the tricky part is almost over... time for it to start making some steady progress.
I agree, Atticus!
That is quite some engineering feat just to create a podium unobstructed by structural steel. It really shows that despite the simplicity of the towers, Brookfield are going all out to provide the best quality final product they can.
It's actually out of necessity. The narrow core sits on solid ground, but rest of the building overlaps with Penn Station's active rail yard below. They couldn't put any columns down between the tracks, so the core has to support the entire building.
I can't believe how great the recladded stump looks. I remember parking at a lot right next to it for a knicks game...I believe one of the towers is rising on the former lot.

Honduras advanced to the Gold Cup semifinals with a 3-2 victory at Gillette Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Goals by Wilmer Velasquez, Elvis Danilo Turcios, and Milton Nunez staked Honduras to a 3-0 lead inside 29 minutes. Christian Bolanos replied for the Costa Ricans in the 39th minute. Bryan Ruiz set up a rousing finish with an 81st-minute goal, but Costa Rica could not complete the comeback.
Velasquez stripped Los Angeles Galaxy and Costa Rica defender Michael Umaña at the edge of the penalty to open the scoring in the sixth minute. His near-post finish baffled Alvaro Mesen to open the scoring.
Another defensive miscue doubled the Honduran lead in the 27th minute. Victor Cordero's pass to Mesen was too soft, allowing Velasquez to steal into the area. A simple feed to Turcios was finished with aplomb to double the lead.
Chicago Fire midfielder Ivan Guerrero created the third goal with a shot from distance in the 29th minute. The powerful shot deflected off Chivas USA and Costa Rican defensive midfielder Douglas Sequeira. Milton Nunez tallied from eight yards to make the score 3-0.
Bolanos, sent on in place of Randall Brenes three minutes earlier, headed home in the 39th minute from an Oscar Rojas cross to pull the Costa Ricans within two before the half.
Ruiz, aided by a delicate through ball from Jafet Soto, fired past Victor Coello on 81 minutes to draw the Costa Ricans within one at 3-2.
Honduras held strong in the final minutes to seal an encounter with the winner of the United States-Jamaica tilt.

Remote Windows Event Log Source
Set up a Remote Windows Event Log Source to use a single Sumo Logic Collector to collect Windows event log entries from multiple remote systems.
Note the following about setting up a Remote Windows Event Log Source:
- Remote Windows Event Sources can only be run on, and collect remotely from, systems running Windows Server 2008 (Windows Vista) or later.
- It isn't necessary for the remote systems to have a Sumo Logic collector installed.
- You can specify a comma-separated list of remote hostnames to collect from.
- You'll need to configure a few settings to enable remote access.
To configure a remote Windows Event Log Source
- Complete the prerequisites for collecting remote events.
- In Sumo Logic select Manage Data > Collection > Collection (Manage > Collection in the classic UI).
- Find the name of the installed collector to which you'd like to add a source. Click Add and then choose Add Source from the pop-up menu.
- Select the Windows Event Log source.
- Choose Remote for Type of Windows Source.
- Set the following:
- Name. Type the name you'd like to display for this source in the Sumo Logic Web Application.
- Description. Optional description.
- Windows host(s). Enter one or more hostnames for the Windows machines from which you want to collect Windows Events. If you'd like to collect from more than one remote host, separate the hostnames with a comma. (If you enter more than one hostname, each host must allow event log access from the same domain user. See the prerequisites for more information.) The hostname can be a maximum of 128 characters.
- Source Category. Enter a string to tag the output collected from this source with searchable metadata. For example, typing web_apps tags all the logs from this Source in the sourceCategory field. For more information, see Metadata Naming Conventions.
- Windows Domain. Type the name of the Windows domain, the username for this host, and the password.
- Windows Event Types. Select the event types you want to collect:
- Standard Event Channels. Select the main check box for all types, or individual check boxes for specific types (Security, Application, and/or System).
- Custom Event Channels to specify, in a comma-separated list, the channels you'd like to collect from. If you need help finding channels on the machine where the Source is installed, see Windows Event Source Custom Channels.
- Metadata. Choose whether you would like the collector to minimize the amount of data collected by omitting the full message text of each event. Core metadata fields such as event ID, timestamp, user name, as well as the unformatted event data will still be present. This can reduce data usage and increase event throughput, but will prevent many dashboards and apps from correctly extracting data.
- Collection should begin. Choose how far back you'd like to begin collecting historical logs. For example, choose 7 days ago to begin collection with logs generated seven days ago. To begin more recently, choose 24 hours.
- Security Identifier. Newer collectors can map security identifiers (SIDs) to usernames. Choose:
- Both Security Identifier and Username
- Security Identifier Only
- Username Only
- Create any Processing Rules you'd like for the new source.
- Click Save.
You can return to this dialog and edit the settings for the source at any time.

"To survive in the streets, them ask how we do it? We tell them, No surrender, no retreat!" (Fantan Mojah)
No Surrender Riddim EP is a limited edition release from Monkey Marc's new Jamaican project with only 500 copies pressed. Pressed on a 10" vinyl and mastered at London's bass heavy giants Transition Mastering, this vinyl pressing weighs and sounds heavy.
In an era of transient digital production throughout the modern music industry, Monkey Marc's production hearkens back to the classic sound of golden era hip hop and the raw energy of 90s dancehall. No Surrender was produced on an MPC3000 and an ATC1 analog synthesizer, and tracked through a vintage BBC broadcast mixing console in Monkey Marc's solar-powered studio in Melbourne, Australia.
This 10" vinyl includes versions by Sizzla, Fantan Mojah and Capleton, the instrumental version, and the title track with the three artists. Additional production by Mista Savona (Havana Meets Kingston).
The entire EP is available as a bonus digital download with every record purchase. This includes two extra versions by Jah Thunder and Spring Wata.
The No Surrender Riddim EP is the first release from Monkey Marc's new project Soundclash Inna Kingston Town LP, slated for release in late 2017. The upcoming LP will feature a heavyweight line-up of Jamaican reggae legends including Ninja Man, Iba Mahr, Dre Island, Turbulence, Lutan Fyah, Prince Allah and a host of up-and-coming artists.

Richard's Ramble Raises Hundreds Of Pounds
11:22am 5th September 2013
Richard Drax's ramble through the countryside has raised nearly £3,000 for charity.
The South Dorset MP did a sponsored Hike from Swanage Pier to Weymouth Pavilion.
One of the charities to benefit will be MV Freedom - the Weymouth based boat which allows wheel chair users to take to the water.
The two Swanage charities were chosen by Swanage Mayor Ali Patrick. Lorna Haines and Mike Connington walked for Impact, which works with young people at weekend nights on Swanage streets and beaches. John Stuart and Paul Harley walked for the Swanage DoE Awards.
In addition, Richard was accompanied by stalwart supporter, Ann Beard, who remained with the walking party until Dancing Ledge.
'I was so grateful for her support,' says Richard, 'She would have put many younger people to shame.'
Gradually, as the hike went on, several of the walkers retired, leaving a final trio of Richard, Lorna Haines and Mike Connington, to stride, tired but elated, into Weymouth in a downpour hours later.
They were greeted by the Oz Avery for the final stretch - and the Impact van, handing out cups of hot chocolate - Impact's trademark secret when dealing with young revellers on late night streets.
'They were there at Lulworth, too,' says Richard. 'Those must have been the best hot chocolates of my entire life.'
'I am delighted that we have managed to raise some funds for these wonderful and worthwhile charities, all of which
change people's lives for the better in South Dorset. It was sometimes hard going - but I enjoyed every single second.'
'I would like to thank everyone who contributed, those who run these charities and of course, my fellow walkers.'

Goalkeeper Richard Wright has signed a new one-year deal with City.

The Neoliberal and the Powerlessness of Ideas
Keynes famously claimed 'soon or late, it is ideas, not vested interested which are dangerous for good or evil'. His neoliberal critics have frequently concurred with this contention, and have happily used the example of Keynes to illustrate it. But is 'the power of ideas' consistent with neoliberal doctrine? The paper argues that the most conclusive case for categorical 'market success' propositions will eliminate ideas as explanatory of economic failure , and imply such failures must be traced to exploitation of by special interests . However, the paper argues that neoliberalism is committed to 'government failure' not 'market success', and government failure does give room for ideas to have power, for good or ill.

Velo-City: Perth – Cycling in Western Australia
December 8, 2010 5 Comments
A great new book about cycling in WA has come out this week by Debra Mayrhofer. It is a very interesting look at cycling and its subcultures in the West with lots stories from many differnt people. I wrote a short piece for it too which I have pasted below. The book is avaialable at Dymocks and I have also donated a copy to the Freo library
The global resurgence of the bicycle
In my travels through major western cities around the globe over the past few years it is hard not to get a strong sense that the tide is turning and bicycles are making a major and timely comeback. Cycling was pushed to the margins in the late 20th century by the dominance of the automobile but now a combination of higher fuel prices, climate change concerns and the need to create more healthy and liveable cities means that people are turning back to cycling once again as a primary way travelling around their cities. As result this also means we are seeing major changes to infrastructure in our cities to make cycling safer and more appealing to more people.
I've just returned this evening from a day-long ride around and through New York City. Despite New York's legendarily chaotic traffic, cycling was an extremely pleasurable way to see New York. This was in large part because of the ambitious "road diet" that NYC has been over the last few years in which lanes of traffic of major avenues and small streets alike have been handed over for public space and bike lanes. Instead of being forced off the road by yellow taxis, New York cyclists now get a dedicated lane all to themselves. Road diets, cycling lanes and other infrastructure improvements has made cycling in NYC much safer, more relaxing and no doubt quicker in peak hour than driving your car. As a result bikes are everywhere in NYC.
The Big Apple is not alone. Paris has, in addition to its extensive Velib bike share scheme (20,000 rental bikes available at approximately 1,400 stations located around the city!), also has put in place over 370 km of cycling lanes that has transformed the city into a cyclist paradise. Many roads are two ways for bikes but only one-way for cars. Following Paris's huge investment, London has recently introduced a similar system with about 6000 blue and grey bikes and a new investment in bike lanes and racks.
It seems bikes are the new black no matter colour they are. This revolution in which cycling is being given a new found focus is happening throughout Europe and North America. I haven't even mentioned the progress we've seen in recent years in Barcelona. Lyon, Copenhagen and Montreal along with many others I haven't space to list. What is clear, however, is that we are seeing a global resurgence in the popularity of cycling and it is a resurgence that is rapidly expanding and gathering pace as the infrastructure to assist it also gets put into place.
Australia is also starting to catch up with this sustainable global trend. Melbourne has recently got up and running the first bike-share scheme in Australia. This is appropriate because it is without a doubt the city with the best cycling infrastructure in the country with over 100km of bike lanes and a great bike culture. Sydney and Brisbane are also looking at cycling with a renewed interest.
In my home town of Fremantle, the City Council recently improved a tenfold increase in funding for bike infrastructure including implementing a new bike plan that will include a huge increase in the number of bike lanes as well as end of trip facilities such as lockers and secure bike storage for workers in Fremantle. This is in addition to the Council funding a free bike hire scheme until we can persuade the state to help us fund a fully fledged bike-share scheme. Fremantle is blessed by already having a great bike culture and being a compact City. With the addition of some good bike infrastructure I have no doubt that we can more double the number of cyclists in the City.
As the Mayor of Fremantle, when elected I decided to auction off my mayoral car-parking bay and donate the money to charity not because I wanted to make a huge personal sacrifice but because I really would rather ride to work than drive and having the best parking bay in Fremantle (which can be short of parking) empty every day was absurd.
For me riding is a great start to the day in which you engage a little with the elements before parking right at the door to your office. For me it is quicker than driving. But nor only is it pleasurable but it means your transport "burns fat not oil", produces no CO2, has no fuel bills, and doesn't add to traffic congestion. Cycling really is an idea whose time has come – once again. This time I strongly believe it is here to stay.
