I've made my MP3s and it's time to name them. Is there a naming standard? What information should I include in the name?
There is no current universally accepted naming standard. It depends completely on how you have your files organized and what you want to put in the file name.
What does matter here is that, however you choose to name the files, you make sure that when you post them the artist-album-track#-track name all appear, but appear only once, in your post headers. If they are in the file name then they don't need to be repeated again in the header. If any of the artist-album-track#-track name information is not in your filename then it needs to be added to the post header.
If you have the correct information in the ID3 tags and you post the correct information in the post header then it makes no difference from the point of view of sharing how you choose to name your files.

The Flying Dutchmen didn't trail for the final 36 minutes against Manhattan Wednesday night, scored 19 unanswered points during a first half in which they held the Jaspers scoreless from the field for nearly 14 minutes, limited the Jaspers to 21 percent shooting and made history with the final score.
Yet at the podium afterward sat two forlorn-looking players and one head coach, the latter of whose disgust threatened to bubble over. Three weeks after the Dutchmen learned that Tom Pecora doesn't believe in moral victories following the loss to UConn, they learned Wednesday he's not one to find beauty in ugly wins, either.
And the Dutchmen won in historically grotesque fashion by edging Manhattan, 44-39, in front of a season-high 3,076 at the Arena (can football be killed again before the New Hampshire game Saturday?). The 44 points were the fewest Hofstra has scored in a victory since the Flying Dutchmen (who were really called the Flying Dutchmen back then) beat something called an Albright, 43-36, in 1961-62. In addition, the victory marked the first time Hofstra won with less than 50 points since the 1992-93 season, when the Butch van Breda Kolff-led Dutchmen (who, yes, were also still called the Dutchmen back then) edged Yale 48-46.
More impressively, it was the first time since Jan. 18, 1989, when Hofstra beat Rider 48-34, that the Dutchmen have allowed fewer than 40 points. Neither Charles Jenkins or Halil Kanacevic, the two players at the podium Wednesday night, had been born yet. (I was in 10th grade, listening to hair metal and sporting a mullet. I am no longer in 10th grade, though)
Despite the victory, Pecora was disappointed the Dutchmen performed nothing like the team that clicked so well in blowing out Towson, 84-64, in the CAA opener Saturday. The Dutchmen scored more points in the second half Saturday (48) than in 40 minutes Wednesday.
"I could sit here and tell you it's a win, every win's great," Pecora said. "Well, I'm trying to express to them on a daily basis [that] you look at the big picture. It's not about winning one game. It's about being good enough and making yourself a good enough team so you win a championship. I don't like wasting a day. And today, we kind of [did]."
The Dutchmen, who had committed 10 or fewer turnovers in each of their previous three games, turned the ball over 19 times, their most since the first round NIT win over Yale. They also had a season-low six assists, which made for the program's worst assist-to-turnover ratio since the same 6/19 in a 78-54 loss to George Mason Feb. 3. The Dutchmen shot 34.6 percent, their second-worst performance of the season behind only the UConn game, and just 37.5 percent from the line, by far their worst outing of the year.
Pecora felt the Dutchmen were outworked and took on the personality of a young team instead of a veteran one, even though it was the freshman Kanacevic (a team-high 10 points and 11 rebounds in his second career double-double) who was the biggest reason Hofstra avoided an embarrassing loss.
Charles Jenkins scored nine points on 3-of-14 shooting, including just 1-of-7 in the second half. He had four steals, none after halftime. Nathaniel Lester had seven points and seven rebounds in a team-high 38 minutes, but big men Miklos Szabo (four points, five rebounds, four fouls) and Greg Washington (eight rebounds and five blocks but just two points and three fouls) annoyed Pecora with foolish fouls while Cornelius Vines had one point, five rebounds, no assists and four turnovers.
Pecora was most discouraged with how the Dutchmen allowed Manhattan to remain in the game even after the Dutchmen went on a 19-0 run in which the Jaspers missed 21 straight shots. The Dutchmen were as dominant on defense as the run would indicate—the lasting image of the drought was that of Jenkins and Washington leaping, one after the other a la synchronized swimmers, to contest a Manhattan shot—but Manhattan finished the half on a 12-4 run and continued chipping away in the second half as the Dutchmen relied too much on jump shots.
"I'm concerned—I talked to Charles about it, just talked to the two seniors about it: We have to take on a mentality of a veteran team, even though we're split right down the middle," Pecora said. "We can't take on that immature mindset of a team with that many young guys. And I thought tonight we played like that. We played in an immature fashion and our veterans have got to impose their will on this basketball team, every night, if we're going to get better."
The Jaspers got within 36-34 on a layup by Ryan Pickett with 7:03 left, but a layup by Kanacevic following a Pecora timeout ended a nearly four-minute drought for the Dutchmen, who never led by less than a possession again.
"We won this game because we were home, we got a good turnout, the students were great. But we didn't shoot well from the foul line. We just looked like a team that wasn't focused. And I said to these guys 'We played cool tonight we didn't play hard.' We'll fix that [today at practice]."

The machine data specialist Splunk has formally entered the IoT space with a new product aimed at providing companies with real-time monitoring and predictive analytics for their industrial assets.
The product, called Industrial Asset Intelligence (IAI) is the vendor's first foray into the crowded internet of things (IoT) market. Where it hopes to stand out is its heritage of being able to process large data sets (traditionally from IT logs) and layering machine learning on top to give predictive analytics.
The solution is built on top of Splunk Enterprise to capture and correlate data from Industrial Control Systems (ICS), sensors, SCADA systems and applications.
"Real-time analytics is an absolute must for manufacturers today, but organisations are struggling to bridge the gap between legacy systems, industrial assets and sensor data," said Ammar Maraqa, senior vice president, business operations and strategy and general manager of IoT markets at Splunk said in a statement.
"Splunk IAI provides a single solution that ensures industrial systems are running at full capacity, enabling organisations to significantly save resources and money on unplanned downtime."
It is naturally being aimed at the manufacturing, oil and gas, transportation, energy and utilities sectors to monitor and analyse data from industrial assets, also knows as Industrial IoT (IIoT). The holy grail here is predictive analytics to help cut downtime of key assets and drive cost savings.

The vendor is entering a crowded market here though, with SAP already offering predictive analytics for IIoT customers through its Leonardo platform and other major vendors like AWS, Dell, Hitachi, Microsoft, Salesforce and IBM offering cloud IoT platforms.
Seema Haji, director of product marketing for IoT at Splunk told Computerworld UK: "The big advantage Splunk has over vendors that creep into the IoT space is the platform approach. So the number one thing that stands out for me at Splunk is the entire platform approach to start in IT department or security and expand use cases to IoT, so looking at similar data, that machine data, but with different lenses.
"There are a lot of solutions that are very specifically aimed at certain pain points, but we take a more holistic platform approach, so more than just the analytics piece with dashboards, it is looking at operational data at the machine data level to get real time insights," Haji, who has been at Splunk nine months now, added.
Splunk IAI will be introduced in April at Hannover Messe for a limited number of customers, with plans to make it generally available in the Autumn.
"This is why we do the limited availability release," Haji explained, "because [IAI] came from repeatable patterns within our existing customer base and seeing how they use us for real-time maintenance, so let's offer a packaged set of capabilities to be able to create dashboards and customisable reports."

Early customers include Brazilian shipping company Sapura Navegacao Maritima and carpet manufacturers Shaw Industries.
"For years, Splunk has provided their customers with valuable answers from their IT and security machine data. Now, the massive growth of IoT data has the industrial world demanding a solution that can help them proactively take action on their data as well," said Dr. Ulrich Bock, director, rail and industry consulting, ESE GmbH.
"Working with Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence has helped us significantly reduce the time spent on troubleshooting equipment issues," said Ricardo Bicudo, vessel performance manager at Sapura Navegacao Maritima.
"The packaged set of capabilities provided by Splunk Industrial Asset Intelligence easily integrates with our existing Splunk platform," said Erika Swartz, senior process engineer, fibres division at Shaw Industries. "Access to real-time and predictive insights is critical for identifying and diagnosing issues, as well as improving performance of our manufacturing processes."

It is beyond comprehension that one of the last remaining critically endangered species, a snow leopard, was shot dead last week at The Dudley Zoo in West Midlands, UK.
Was there a dangerous escape by the snow leopard? Was the zoo open? Were members of the public on the premises? The answer to the above is an resounding, No!
The fact is that the eight-year-old snow leopard, named Margaash, simply wandered out of his enclosure where he resided after a zookeeper left the door open. It wasn't the snow leopards fault.
Despite the snow leopard remaining on the premises which was closed at the time and void of visitors, it was somehow decided by zoo staff to kill the animal because, as the zoo claims, "public safety is of uppermost importance." What about the protection of the animal forced to live in captivity?
Why would the zoo choose to euthanize a critically endangered species instead of tranquilizing it?
Outraged animal advocates are now demanding a thorough investigation of the tragic event that sadly occurred on October 23rd but was not announced by the zoo until November 30th.
"While this is a sad incident that is undoubtedly very distressing to those who cared for Margaash, it brings into sharp focus, once again, that zoos simply cannot guarantee the safety of people and their animals," Dr. Chris Draper, Born Free's Head of Animal Welfare & Captivity, said in a statement. "It is perhaps all the more tragic when you consider that Margaash was destined to live and die in captivity, far removed from his natural range and habitat."
The nonprofit organization addressed that "there will be those who claim that zoos contribute to conservation," which may, or most-likely may not, be accurate.
Wild Animals Do Not Belong In Confinement Nor Should They Ever Be Used For Profit To Satisfy Human Greed!
Regardless, continued Dr. Draper, "The life and death of a snow leopard at Dudley Zoo should serve to remind us just how we are failing wild animals, both in captivity and in nature."
In the wild, snow leopards are generally solitary and secretive cats inhabiting mountainous areas of Central Asia, where males have an average home range of 77 square miles: completely incompatible with life in captivity.
According to Defenders of Wildlife, only an estimated 3,500 to 7,000 snow leopards are remaining in the wild, with 600 to 700 held captive at zoos around the world.
Born Free is not only calling for an urgent investigation into this incident, it is advocating for the system of licensing and inspection of zoos to be reviewed and overhauled to prevent a similar tragedy in the future.

Pre Lit Christmas Trees
Don't fancy the hassle of putting the lights onto the tree and sorting out the rat's nest they were left in last year? Then a pre-lit tree is for you. The majority of our lights are warm white static LEDs, but the new generation of Dual Cosmic lights, as featured on the Iceland Fir, give you the flexibility of having warm white, multi-coloured or pastel colours with a variety of functions. Not only do they stay static but also flash, gently undulate and alternate the colours. Lighted trees are available in a wide range of styles, full width, slim, pencil, traditional cone shape or the more random natural looking trees. The trees not only come in plain green but also with a slight frosting or flocked to resemble a snow covered tree, so why not break away from the norm and go for a snowy alpine inspired tree. If you would like any help choosing your perfect Christmas tree please don't hesitate to call our sales team. All orders over £50 are eligible for FREE DELIVERY to the majority of mainland UK addresses.

I've always been a brunette. A strong, dark, kind of brunette. It's a colour I'm very happy with and have lived with a long time now, but occasionally one fancies a change.
I have previously attempted to henna my hair, but even Lush's brightest henna produced only a subtle glow in the sunshine, which was scarcely worth the effort.
So I decided it would be fun to have my hair professionally coloured. To have it coloured sufficiently that it is quite clear that it is deliberately coloured. And, after all, who doesn't want to be a red-head?
So today, I have given in to all my girly impulses and become, temporarily at least, red-haired. I think it looks pretty good, and I wanted to share it with you. I hope you like it, I certainly do!

Last Thursday I had a chance to practice what the last tips article was referring to, tuning the boat to sail by itself. I was able to balance the T37 pretty well. I did a video at the pond with the boat sailing in a good breeze. It's narrated.
I would normally have a bit of weather helm trimmed as I think its a bit faster, but it sailed pretty well on its own and cought the lifts and headers efficiently.
Here's the link:

I just got into this game and I really enjoy it. Mostly because you can draw/create everything yourself from your world blocks to your home to your furniture to your avatar skin. It's a pixel artists dream. It's a massive multiplayer universe where you can pretty much do whatever you want. I also like that the game is free as in 100% free not a single IAP to be found. So if you guys are curious to give it a try or already have a Manyland account my name on there is Ghastly and my world is called Ghastly's Lair. I have player skins I have created available there and some other neat stuff. The only thing this game really lacks for me is cool ppl to hang with there.
My GC name is DungeonDame

All last week and up until mid-day yesterday I have been dreading Lent.
Kinda like Capt. Jack Sparrow; just yuck and blah.
In my daily life, I'm really good at keeping busy; furiously checking things off my to-do list and priding myself on how MUCH I get done and what I am always busy doing. But all that busyness is catching up with me, it is wearing down my spirit. Though I love quiet, peaceful moments...I'm not generous enough with myself to allow time for that every day. On top of being the busy worker bee I am, I need to be more focused on my own self care this Lent. I need to work my own recovery just; like my husband needs to do the same and keep learning.healing.growing. from addictions he struggles with.
Leading up to today, I haven't felt very prepared to enter into these holy days. I have felt so beaten down and frustrated with things in life. And then I felt refreshed when I read Elizabeth's post on how to have a gentle Lent. Reading it was just what this tired soul needed. Like Elizabeth, I totally have a tendency to over-commit and overdo Lent. Which makes me chuckle, because Lent is not so much about DOING, but rather BEING.
This point was so beautifully illustrated when Jim and I went to Mass at 9a for Ash Wednesday. It was an all school Mass, which meant all the kids were at church in their uniforms. The priest asked the children, "So what exactly is the point of Lent, anyway?" His answer?
Lent is about spending 7 weeks looking at the crucifix; looking at Jesus hanging on those wooden beams. And in that prayerful look, we ask Jesus "How can I change? How can I become more like You?". Lent is about a loving, prayerful exchange of looks between God and his child. And yes, prayer, fasting, and alms-giving are all important and helpful tools to help make the most of these 40 days...BUT we cannot get so caught up in the stuff.actions. of Lent, but remember the One whom Lent is all about.
So this Lent, I am going to be gentle with myself {not soft or easy on myself}...but more patient and less harsh with myself.
I feel inspired by God in the ways I want to live this Lenten season in a gentle manner.
Prayer: I have set three alarms on my phone to stop and pray. from the heart. the serenity prayer:
I'll also spend time each morning or evening praying with Scripture. 30 minutes. I NEED it.
Fasting: I will fast from "checking up" daily on my husband's recovery, but rather let him do his own work and share when he feels ready/able. I will not nag him about what he needs to do to take care of himself, but instead focus on the positive steps I see him taking and be more affirming. We will have 1 time a week to openly share.discuss.ask questions on how both of us are doing (recovery wise).
Almsgiving: I will send a hand-written note/card each week to a different person and mailing it...and.come. on. Am I the only one who gets excited when I get snail mail?! ;)
I feel hopeful now starting Lent...like I can do this and live these days with a gentleness to myself I'm not quite used to.
May these next 40 days be a time of peace and refreshment for you.

3D games or 3D movies – from a commercial standpoint, which matters more? It's an interesting question that we explore with The Hollywood Reporter in a new piece that examines which medium is more apt to influence the shape of 3D technology and TV sets to come. Writer John Scott Lewinski posits the question to a number of experts from both industries, who say that consumer electronics makers like Sony, Toshiba and Panasonic still have yet to define clear hardware standards across the board. Accordingly, both the movie and video game industries are waiting with bated breath before throwing meaningful support behind the likes of LG, Samsung and others.
As a result, it may be some time yet (at least 24-36 months) before a significant number of 3D TVs find their way into homes across the globe. And, by proxy, game publishers and Hollywood studios alike begin to support these formats, as they wait for a clear winner to emerge whom they're comfortable enough with to allocate considerable resources behind. From solutions which utilize active shutter glasses and stereoscopic images to varied display technologies, multiple 3D special effects solutions exist, yet no obvious frontrunner has thus far emerged. Accordingly, game makers will likely look to Tinseltown's top moviemakers to set the pace, with the film and TV industries futures' inherently more intertwined with the successful launch of these sets.
Still, despite their cautious stance, game creators have a vested interest in seeing the format succeed. The only question: Which do they see as the right platform and approach? Click through on the following link to find out for yourself what a variety of analysts, experts and 3D content makers had to say about the debate.

A stone of organic nature, Coral can be used to reconnect with nature and its variety of wonders, especially to the element of water. Red Coral in particular is a stone of passion, and helps attract love and prosperity. Emotionally, Coral is said to bring inner peace, strength, and greater understanding of our purpose on this planet.
This Pinecone has been blessed with the Seed of Life, cast in 24k Gold. This sacred symbol serves as the foundation or "Seed" for the Flower of Life, and represents the Seven days of Creation. It depicts the origins of all matter, in geometric perfection, with six circles (the six days of work) resting inside a seventh circle (the day of rest, the sabbath).
The back of this Pinecone has been anointed with our "Third Eye" emblem, cast in 24k Gold. This powerful icon is a fusion of the Egyptian "Eye of Horus" -- a source of protection, good-health and power -- and the "Om" symbol -- a sacred symbol of the omnipotent, omnipresent divine, and of spiritual ascension.
This uniquely hand-crafted pinecone pendant is the exact one you will receive.

Policy in Australia
Australia has been at the forefront of policy and service development for people with eating disorders.
National Eating Disorders Collaboration
The National Eating Disorders Collaboration (NEDC), led by The Butterfly Foundation, brings together experts in the field of eating disorders to progress activities relevant to ongoing service development across Australia. InsideOut has from the outset been involved in advocating for a national approach for treatment and prevention of eating disorders and sits on the NEDC governing committee.
The NEDC's vision is to ensure that eating disorders are a priority mainstream health issue; that a healthy, diverse and inclusive Australian society act to prevent eating disorders; and that every Australian at risk should have access to an effective continuum of eating disorders prevention, care and ongoing recovery support.
The Fifth National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan
The Fifth National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan announced in 2017 seeks to establish a national approach to strengthen the mental health system with a collaboration across governments. The plan targets eight priority areas, which for the first time include the treatment and support for people with severe and complex mental illnesses including people with eating disorders.

When I want to write a song, I often start by jotting down everything I think of when I consider the main idea of the song. In this case, for my novel Get Happy, my character Minerva wants to write a song about money. This was one of my brainstorms. I revised the song a bunch of times before finishing it. You can hear my original demo of the song on soundlcloud and also watch Jamey Geston's version of the song.
Next time you want to write a song, try dumping all your thoughts down first before actually trying to write any lines. See if that process works for you.

I've recently bought a Cubot X17 S and I can't for the life of me get the mobile internet to work (wifi on the other hand works without problems). I've checked if my network provider (Si.Mobil) supports the phone's frequencies at willmyphonework.com and it's supposed to work on both 3G and 4G.
I've also done what this video that was posted in another thread with a similar problem suggests https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jID9aLa7N2w, but the network was set to EURO from the start so that did nothing. I'm frankly stumped, I'd appreciate any help since I rely on internet connection a lot.
I'm using Sim 2 with the other slot empty, if that helps any.

FoxWeb requires that you enter each host name and/or IP-address that will be used in URLs in the Virtual Hosts grid of the FoxWeb Control Center. For example, in this case you would need to add a new row to the grid and enter "mike" in the Host Name column. If this is the only virtual host on your server, then you don't need to populate the Program Root column. For more information please refer to the FoxWeb Configuration topic of the FoxWeb documentation.

I'm having problem in accessing the Foxweb server installed on Windows 2000. I'm using Personal webserver. Whenever I call the *.fwx files on the client computer link to the server, whether directly or using GET or POST on HTML, I always get the message "No program root has been configured for domain "mike"
My home page directory is c:\webdevelop alias http://mike
I tried calling my HTML file with http://mike/chart.html which calls the script "SaveData.fwx" on the submit button. The HTML page is Ok but when I clicked on the button the message above appears.
Can anybody tell me why? I need this solution as soon as possible, because my boss wants to purchase this system, before the end of January.

Importance of Non-Hybrid Seeds
Many vegetables today lack nutrition from over-hybridization. Recent tests are showing that many of the vegetables, grains and other produce you buy, INCLUDING ORGANIC PRODUCE, are nutrient-deficient. If you want to truly be in charge of your nutritional intake, you must home garden. If you want the higher nutrition of original varieties you must use non-hybrids.
Economic security and independence
Growing your own food, now, is becoming an economic necessity for many. Even those in cities are growing food on their balconies and rooftops and in suburban backyards. 2010 will likely become known as the year America returns to home gardening (see Victory Gardens of WWII) as a way of defending against the hostile adversary of an economic downturn!
Security of Food Supply
Securing the nation's food supply against the "invasion" of GM (genetically modified) and over-hybridization of foods is coming down to the backyard garden. Yours and ours. It is our patriotic duty to defend the genetic integrity of our food supply by growing, saving seeds and sharing original varieties.
World Food Supply
Put simply, the future of the world's food supply rests in non-hybrid seeds. The push toward hybridization and GM foods is becoming irreversible. Hybrid food sources are patented and "owned" by the patent-holders. It is, in fact, a form of patent-infringement to attemptto collect and plant seeds from many hybrid varieties.
With the advancement of genetically modified plant varieties, the danger of cross-pollination with organic and non-hybrid varieties is not only possible, it is happening as you read this. If it is possible for GM vegetables, grains and legumes to cross-pollinate with organic and non-hybrid varieties, then it's possible for the food system to be altered uncontrollably and irreversibly.
What We Can Do
Plant gardens now and store for the future. Plant as many original variety vegetables, fruits and grains as possible right now and store as many seeds as you can comfortably afford for your own protection, the protection of your family, neighbors, community.
Check out these Non-Hybrid Seeds from Heirloom Organics!

In 2012, Forbes reported that an estimated $1.85 Billion dollars were spent on Super Bowl ads, and the average cost for a 30 second TV spot was about $3.75 million. That's a lot of money. We have come to expect the biggest companies to annually compete for our attention with funny, bizarre and emotional ads, but is it working? What does it mean for the small business owner that's competing for the local consumers?
Small businesses have no way to compete against the big spenders, but are they missing out on a golden opportunity by letting the heavyweights duke it out? Our friends at Google recently published several studies that suggest big spending by big companies can actually help out the little guys (we like the little guys).
Enter multi-screens. At any given time, consumers are using multiple devices for research, entertainment, shopping and communication.Commercials and television shows actually encourage this behavior. It's the norm for see a hashtag in the lower right-hand corner when watching TV. The Super Bowl only energizes this behavior. Consumers will be tweeting, browsing,posting and reacting. Advertisers want to create as much buzz as possible.Small business owners need to tune in.
Research shows that 81% of people use their smartphone while watching TV. This indicates that the Go Daddy and Doritos won't be the only ones getting attention on Super Bowl Sunday. Consumers will flock to the internet as they react to commercials in real time.
TV commercials, popular programming and national events are major catalyst for search. Studies show that 56% of people will perform a mobile search after offline ad exposure, and TV ads are the biggest driver. Google reports that 22%of smart phone search and 10% of computer search is driven by seeing a commercial or seeing a TV program. This means that when people tune into the Super Bowl, one of the most watched TV activities, it will high volumes of search.
So if the majority of TV watchers are on their phone at the same time, what are they doing? What does this mean for the small business owner? Paid advertising,social media posts and timely email marketing campaigns will all have a high level of visibility to local consumers.
Almost every search query has local intent. There is a huge movement to support the local business owner, and in a world of "need it now,"local businesses provide the easiest way for consumers to get product or service they want. We know that 84% of local searches have taken a subsequent action after a local search. Is your small business showing up to be called,visited or shopped online?
It's time to start planning your strategy now. Timing is everything. At RevLocal, we understand the nuances of marketing and embrace crunch time. Local search marketing is what we do. What's your internet marketing strategy? Give us a call, we can help.

Project Information
- Stakeholder: DST
- Students: Abel Letoaba (SMU), Komana Morris (UL), Kaveshan Naidoo (UNISA)
- Project Lead: Dr. Vukosi Marivate
- Project Mentors: Ofentswe Lebogo, Asive Dlaba
- Year: 2016/2017
Project Description
Project Motheo was initially a project tasked with the goal of creating an application which would extract useful information from potentially large scale electronic documents, and in the process allow the user to acquire a summary of these required documents with extended features such as the comparison of different documents and the highlighting of their related topics.
During the first phase the Project- Motheo team developed a web application that allowed the user to search for a particular topic and then receive their required results in a rapid amount of time by means of tool called Solr. The project- Motheo team encountered numerous challenges such as being exposed to new programming languages as well with the added task of grasping web development, however in due course they adapted and learned to deal with the task at hand with the eagerness to evolve into better coders and future data scientists.
The Project-Motheo team further worked on developing a dynamic Web application which will identify the progress of the National Development plan alongside the Annual Reports belonging to all Departments of the South African Government. The Motheo team is currently building more functions to add to the dashboard and are working on features such as topic modelling, the mining of locations/ mapping and text analysis.
Student Remarks
The students have been exposed to the Data Science field and in the process have grasped skills such as learning new programming languages, text analysis, topic modelling using LDA, Django, machine learning. The students appreciate the exposure that the DSIDE program has provided for them and are intrigued by taking Data Science as a potential career.

Not one Nassau County taxpayer has gotten a flawed property-tax bill as a result of County Executive Laura Curran's crusade to build an accurate roll of more than 400,000 properties. That's because tax bills generated by the new values for 2020-21 won't be sent out until Jan. 2.
What Curran is trying to do now is work out kinks in the new system and soothe residents' anxiety and fury. It's made harder because many of the county's elected Republicans are encouraging rage and fear.
Until now, county properties have not been assessed since the roll was frozen in 2010, and the current valuations bear little relationship to reality. Many taxpayers won grievances year after year since 2010 that the county granted automatically to avoid generating potential refunds it could not afford to pay.
Those perpetual grievers did nothing wrong, but many of their homes are now seriously undervalued, and they don't pay their fair share of taxes. Meanwhile, the people who have not grieved are paying too much. This reassessment is projected to increase taxes for 52 percent of property owners and decrease them for 48 percent, and in most cases, the swings won't be huge. Any hikes will be truly manageable if the State Legislature agrees to let the county spread out the changes over five years.

Excitement is building as October 1 approaches. October 1st is the release of the Diamond Edition of The Little Mermaid and half of the reason I went to California last month. As part of an incredible whirlwind 2 day event besides going to the Disney PLANES premiere we got to interview Ron Clements and John Musker the writers and directors of The Little Mermaid. It was interesting to learn some fun facts about them and about the process of making The Little Mermaid.
First of all Ron and John are good friends. In fact they joke that they have been "married" for about 28 years. Being such good friends and having complimentary taste helps them work together on scripts and movies. They are able to easily agree on casting actors and voices because they see eye to eye about those things. This complimentary styles helps with writing. John said " Ron's more big on structure, and I'm a little bit more dialogue oriented. So we kind of dovetailed, a little, we weren't doing exactly the same thing, although certainly he wrote some very funny dialogue and I occasionally have a structural idea. But… the sum is somewhat more than the parts."
It was also asked what they would want to be remembered for. After making the joke that he isn't sure he wants to be remember Ron said "that the work is appreciated." John added "that the movies we've done stand the test of time, that they live on beyond what we do. I think more so than my own name or something like that. The fact that the characters and the stories still resonate, I think that's pretty satisfying."
One thing we learned is that Ron Clements and John Musker are hilarious! They spoke of how animators are like anonymous actors. They have both moved their way up the Disney company to become writers and directors, but have held onto that anonymity. They talked about how Steven Spielberg can't go out in public and eat a decent meal because everyone recognizes him and wants to talk to him, but they can eat fine when out in public.
Another blogger asked if they could pick a favorite movie they have worked on or if that was like picking a favorite child? They agreed that it was like picking a favorite child since the movies take such a huge chunk of their lives. John said that for him he can separate it out to favorite parts about different films. He loved working on The Little Mermaid because it was his first time work with Howard Ashman. He liked Aladdin because of working with Eric Goldman and all the improvisation Robin Williams was doing. He liked Hercules because he worked with an illustrator he had idolized for a long time. John said they each provided him with their own happy memories, just like children do.
One thing I found amazing is that John talked about how they divide up film into which songs they each would direct and which sequences they would direct. It is amazing to me that two different people can go back and forth directing a film and yet the finished product seems whole and intact as if one person had worked on it.
Thinking about the characters of The Litter Mermaid, what if Sebastian had been British? What if there had been a dolphin character? Those things were possibilities. In the beginning drafts Sebastian was going to be a "stuffed shirt kind of a British major domo type" but Howard Ashman thought that Sebastian should be Jamaican and with the popularity of Reggae music growing it would make the music more contemporary. They had also discussed Ariel having a dolphin friend with a "take charge" kind of attitude but then thought they had too many characters so threw out the dolphin and gave some of his spunk to Ariel. They "wanted to create a heroine that was more active that Snow White or Cinderella" one that could "get mad and take charge."
The next question was about Ron and Johns memories of the original Hans Christian Anderson story of The Little Mermaid. Ron said that he had gone to a bookstore and read the story and that must have been his first time reading it because he was shocked when she died at the end. John said that he hadn't ever read the story until Ron had found it. So neither of them new the story until adulthood and then once they read it that is when they began working on it. Ron did give a little clue as to why they named The Little Mermaid Ariel. He said that Footloose had come out a few years before The Little Mermaid and he thinks subconsciously the name Ariel came from the girl in Footloose and stayed with him.
Have you ever noticed that in Disney movies most of the time there is only one parent? You rarely see a happy 2 parent family. We talked about that all the time at our house. Well that got brought up to Ron and John. John said "It's nothing personal. In Fairy Tales they often just have one parent, it's just a way of architecting the parental wall and a child breaking away." I was really glad they addressed this because I have always wondered why they did away with one parent.
It was such an amazing experience to being the same room with these two incredible men and hear their stories. We unfortunately only had about 15 minutes with them, but they were so friendly and could have told story after story all day! It was a once in a lifetime experience I will never forget! The Little Mermaid Diamond Edition releases on Blu-Ray combo pack on October 1.

What Are The Side Effects?
Having listened and read many user reviews over many years, we have concluded that the risks are relatively low! But, there are some side effects revealed by our readers!
- Headaches
- Insomnia
- Digestive issues
Not all users report these side effects, while some seem to struggle with the side effects caused by Phen375!
Some users have claimed to experience a constant headache and had to stop altogether! On average 30-40% of users experience issues when taking Phen375 for the first week, while another 10% have had to stop altogether!
Phen375 Ingredients

BUT! Does It Work?
Here are some Phen375 reviews submitted to us that explains how users feel about this controversial supplement:
"My experience with Phen375 started many years ago and started when I was over 19 stone. Which I was lucky enough to discover because it is now my best friend. I have lost nine stone over six years all because of Phen375.
I use to use it for three months at a time, but, changed to one month because of the digestive issues I tend to experience. It is a fantastic product I highly recommend to my friends although they do NOT receive digestive pains so it might be the caffeine that I am intolerant too! Andrea, US."
"Great product and helped me lose weight, but it was also great for my motivation. I found it improved energy I could not achieve using other diet pills. All in all a great product that I will be taking again. Top marks Phen375 ;). Sam, UK."
Phen375 Review Conclusion
Yes, Phen375 does work! But, we all knew this because of the sheer amount of users reordering this supplement. With the added benefits of energy, fat burning, and its ability to suppress the appetite we believe Phen375 to be one of the best all-around supplements for weight loss.
Compared to other leading brands Phen375 is one of the best natural alternatives to Phentermine. Yes, there are many of these so-called phentermine alternates, but only a few have stood the test of time and succeed where so many others have failed!
We advise you to ONLY take Phen375 for around eight weeks (2 months) at a time because of the ingredients used in the formula. Just because the ingredients are natural does not make them any less potent and should only be digested for a limited time because of the negative issues it may cause!
We receive this question over and over again! The only place to buy REAL Phen375 is visiting their official website. Do not buy from
Yes, Phen375 does work! Please read the review above for a more detailed explanation of our findings. Our only recommendation to limit it to 2 months at a time because of the unknown side effects associated with long-term use!

General Information
The Acorn Theater in Three Oaks, Michigan, is located approximately 70 miles from downtown Chicago and 60 miles from Kalamazoo. It's an intimate and eclectic non-profit performance space featuring rock, folk, indie, jazz, opera, open mics, drama, and comedy. Housed in a turn-of-the-century former corset stay factory, this beautiful building is now a venue for many performers of incomparable talent who delight in the proximity to the audience and outstanding acoustics. The Acorn produces over 100 shows a year in its 260-seat house. The full bar offers local brews, wine, and mixed drinks.
History of the Acorn Theater
Co-founded by Chicagoans, writer Kim Clark and manufacturing executive David Fink, in 2002, the Acorn Theater grew organically from Clark's quest for a space to workshop his theater projects. When the dilapidated Featherbone Factory building became available they jumped on it, despite the leaky roof, collapsing floors, and rusted cars on the dirt road in front of the theater.
After presenting a variety show to a packed house in conjunction with the Harbor Country art festival, Art Attack, a more serious 2-year renovation began. The building was gutted to construct the charming and acoustically rich theater and a loft-style apartment featured on HGTV. In 2003 the Acorn Theater officially opened, and 45 shows were produced to packed houses in its first year.
The early years of the Acorn were filled with explosive creative energy and projects involving both Chicago and local notables. The theater and apartment quickly became a vibrant art incubation space for theater pieces, books, and a podcast. Word spread about the Acorn, which garnered national recognition and a feature article in the New York Times.
Over the years, Acorn luminaries have included Jeff Daniels, Jeff Tweedy, Rickie Lee Jones, Jefferson Starship, Poi Dog Pondering, The Cowboy Junkies, Peter Yarrow, Richie Havens, Shawn Mullins, Corky Siegel, Lesley Gore, Chicago Farmer, Larkin Poe, pianist Jim Brickman, and opera star Nathan Gunn. In addition to continuing to program stars with highly recognizable names, the Acorn prides itself on showcasing local and rising talent by hosting regular open mics and competitions providing artists rewarding stage time. Regardless of familiarity with the talent, audiences can be assured a great night of entertainment.
The Acorn Theater became a nonprofit 501(c)(3) theater in 2015. Thanks to ongoing community support and engagement the Acorn continues to expand its offerings.

There are 4 main types of CBD products consumers should be aware of, each with its own special properties. Depending on how you're using CBD or what CBD benefits you're hoping to derive from it, it's important to consider the right product.
Isolate: This is CBD in its purest form. Isolate products contain concentrated cannabinoid, suspended in a carrier (like coconut oil). Users who may have sensitivity to other cannabinoids like THC or CBC may choose isolate to avoid unwanted effects. The drawback of CBD isolate? It doesn't contain terpenes or other cannabinoids, which means you're not getting those compounding effects.
Distillate: Also called "broad spectrum," distillate is refined to remove unwanted cannabinoids like THC. Distillates are usually sold for people who want the "entourage effect" of various cannabinoids and terpenes, but who may have a sensitivity to certain cannabinoids. The downfall of distillates is that they're usually more expensive.
Full-spectrum: Full-spectrum products include the entire range of cannabinoids and terpenes, including trace amounts of THC (less than 0.3%). These products have the most potential for delivering effects to users, however they may not always be available due to certain state laws regarding cannabis products. Those with sensitivity to THC may also choose to avoid full-spectrum CBD products, although they will not get you high.
Whole-plant: Full-spectrum and whole-plant are often used interchangeably when describing CBD products containing the spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes. The difference is, whole-plant products also contain fats, waxes and other fibrous materials found in cannabis plants.
Depending on the person, any one of these products may be suitable. It largely depends on the reason for taking CBD, price and product availability.
