Some of the things the Fedora FR team has doneOver the weekend, I spoke to alot of people in the Fedora FR team about some of the things they've done. So far I've had only an small inkling of the amount of work they've put into promoting Fedora. I think that it's time that the rest of the world knows what they've been up to.
The Fedora-FR group and non profit organisation is concerned with promoting Fedora within the Francophone community. This includes not only France but southern Belgium, some border towns in Germany, northern Africa, half of Switzerland, and any other community that speaks primarily French. As I've written before, the Fedora FR team is on the unique challenge of providing Fedora as a good resource to a population that does not speak English well.
In a nutshell, they've reproduced most of the information infrastructure available to the mainstream Fedora but in French. They have their own:
The Organisation is made up of:
- 19 Ambassadors
- A whopping 14,600 people signed up to the forum
- 80 documentation writers
- 22 contributors to the French blog.
They've put together in the past:
- Powered by Fedora stickers
- Fedora pins - I have a few, the quality is excellent
- A French Live CD spin
- An Online Fedora Schwag store - Including the unofficial Fedora thong.
- A PDF Manual for Fedora available for offline reading
- Articles in local magazines
They've arranged and ran many events for the French Community including at least 3 install fests for every Fedora release. Overall, they are sincerely one of our best and top performing marketing and Ambassador teams in the Fedora world.
This presents a few issues in regards to Fedora as a whole. Firstly, there is a strong overlap between the efforts of Fedora FR and Fedora EMEA. They are both looking to provide an outlet for alot of Fedora resources, including funding of events and running online stores. Even so, the focus of Fedora EMEA is far more corporate than Fedora FR. Most of the members of Fedora EMEA either use Fedora professionally at work, or work for Red Hat. In contrast, Fedora FR is made up mostly of community members who use Fedora for fun. The bar for membership is alot lower in Fedora FR, and they actively encourage people who participate at events to sign up for membership. One thing that we certainly can work on though is better communication and collaboration between Fedora FR and Fedora EMEA.
My weekend in Paris has been quite enjoyable so far. I can certainly say, without a doubt, that everyone in the French speaking Fedora community is quite hospitable, and more than happy to welcome visitors. If you can speak French, I really highly recommend visiting this community. It is definitely a very valuable experience. I would like to thank the entire community for hosting me this past weekend.

(AKA I'm Still Waiting for You)
"Thirteen years ago on Valentine's Day, two young lovers were brutally murdered at the local Lovers Lane. The killer, known as the Hook because of his weapon, was caught and arrested by the police and imprisoned in a nearby institution for the criminally insane. However, now it's Valentine's Day again - and the Hook has escaped."
In reality this is an "I Know What You Did Last Summer" ripoff complete with a hook-handed killer. It is therefore no surprise that this was retitled for the UK market as "I'm Still Waiting for You" complete with video sleeve artwork that looked almost identical. Don't confuse it with "I've Been Waiting for You" though as this is 1000 times more crap.
If it had some humourous moments you could almost see this as a comedy but it's so bad it isn't funny. All the actors look like the other actors from similar teen slashers but aren't even half as good. It has Anna Faris in it though as a cheerleader who doesn't change her costume for the entire movie.
I might write a fuller review once I've watched this totally unscary, goreless (or should that be gormless?) pile of steaming excrement again as for some reason I couldn't find all the nudie bits that must be in the movie somewhere. What? Not only are there no gory death scenes but there aren't any nudie bits either...? I don't think I'll bother then.
1 out of 10 because it has the pretty girl in it from "Scary Movie". Unoriginal, stupid, pointless ...and did I mention "ripoff"?

It is the study of excellence: noticing a repetitive pattern that creates the same known outcomes over and over again with the intention of repeating the strategy in another area of life.

When Gabby asked me to write up a mini guide to New York, the first thing I thought of was food! Yes, many people think of shopping when they think New York (which of course I'll get to) but I think it's equally known for their large variety of food. Whether you're on a budget or willing to spend some extra cash, here are some of my favorites of the moment:
Di Fara's Pizza: Sure, you might have to venture out to Brooklyn for this pizza, but DiFara's is arguably one of the best pizza places in New York. Wafer thin crusts, fresh basil, sweet sauce and a non-wood burning oven, makes this pizza stand above many others in the NY area.
Bleeker Street Pizza: If you're not willing to venture out to Brooklyn, Bleeker Street Pizza is another favorite. Traditional, NYC pizza in the heart of the West Village.
Shake Shack: The burgers here are my favorite in New York and they're the closest thing to having a West Coast burger. The (cheese) fries and milkshakes are also equally delicious! Come here during off hours (later in the afternoon) and you'll avoid a long line.
Higher End (I suggest making reservations at all of the below)
Beauty & Essex: An absolutely beautiful restaurant/lounge, which creates for the perfect opportunity to get all dolled up for. The food is good, but my favorite part is the great people watching, the music and the complimentary champagne in the ladies bathroom.
Balthazar: A classic NYC landmark with an authentic Parisian Brasserie atmosphere, and although it's usually packed with tourists, it's equally packed with New York regulars. Easily one of my favorite places for brunch or for dinner.
Degustation: I'll only recommend this place to "foodies" or to those who are not afraid to try different things. If you're not a picky eater, this is easily in my top 3 favorites. The place is small, only seats 12 and you sit around an open kitchen and watch the chef prepare your food. I highly recommend the tasting menu if you go. This place is some what pricey, but worth every penny if food is your thing.
Cocktails and Other:
Verlaine: For a good happy hour spot with delicious $5 lychee martinis, this place is one of my favorites. I actually came here last week with a few girlfriends. We started off at Verlaine and then took a quick cab ride over to Beauty & Essex for a light dinner and great people watching.
Sweet Revenge: An adorable little cupcake shop that offers wine or beer beers pairings to go along with your cupcakes of choice.
The Standard: One of the most beautiful hotels and views of the city. Drinks are a bit pricey (typical NYC hotel prices) but you're paying for the fabulous view and lounge area that the Standard provides.
Century 21: One of my personal favorites for getting some designer things for a fraction of the price. I rarely walk out of this store without buying something, but this store does get extremely crowded, so try to avoid it on the weekends (if you can) or after work.
LF Boutique: If you're looking for something right on trend, LF is the best! Hard not to come into this store and not want half of the things in there. Also the only place where I can find certain shoes that are normally only available online.
Soho: The area in general is filled with almost every single store imaginable. Although Broadway is where all the major stores are (Top Shop, Bloomingdales, Sephora, Zara, H&M, Forever 21 and lots more) I prefer the side streets. Not as crowded and filled with charming little boutiques.
Beacons Closet (Vintage/Thrift): There are two locations in Brooklyn, but the one in Williamsburg is my favorite. I've scored vintage coats here, belts, shoes and basically never leave without finding something fabulous!
Night Life:
To narrow down specific spots is an impossible task. Bars & lounges on every corner, a slew of hotel bars, and an equal amount of clubs give a never ending list of places to go once the sun goes down. If you're looking to get dolled up and for a fancy party, head to Meat Packing. Keep in mind that weekdays (Tues-Thurs) are sometimes better than weekends. Finding a low key atmosphere is even easier. East Village, Lower East Side and the Upper West Side have dozens and dozens of bars. Even most nice restaurants turn into a scene later at night.
Allow yourself to really get lost in the city. Go down to the West Village, or the Upper West Side (my two favorite areas) and explore. Go up and down streets, walk into a random cafe and have a glass of wine or a cup of coffee, go into little boutiques..etc. I've been living in NYC my entire life and I never get tired of just exploring. There is always something new to see and it's really my favorite way to get a feel of the neighborhoods, rather than hanging around Times Square or Midtown (which I'm not a fan of, at all). Hope this was helpful!
Thanks Girl! I'm looking forward to the day when I can visit your favorite places... hopefully really soon! ;)

What is Pellevé®?
The Pellevé® System delivers constant, gradual radiofrequency energy deeply into the skin, causing heat to build up where the skin and fat layer meet. The increasing heat modifies the collagen bundles deep in the skin, causing contraction and stimulating the growth of new collagen over time. The result: firmer, tighter younger looking skin.

Multisource Feedback for Supervisors
- Have you ever wondered how effective a supervisor you are?
- Are you curious about whether there might be a gap between your intentions and the actual perceptions of your trainees?
- Would you like constructive feedback on your strengths as a supervisor, together with potential areas for development?
Supervision is central to the success of postgraduate medical education and training. We now have an online facility, the Multisource feedback tool (MSF), specifically designed to give named educational and named clinical supervisors the opportunity to get individual feedback from their trainees on the quality of their supervision.
The benefits for supervisors
- Useful structured feedback to help you improve as a supervisor
- Evidence for your supervisor's portfolio, NHS appraisal and revalidation
- A structured report containing mean scores and anonymised written comments
- A free, quick and easy to use online system that can be accessed anywhere, any time
- An unlimited resource that can be re-visited and used on an ongoing basis
The benefits for trainees
- An opportunity to provide constructive feedback to your supervisor
- An opportunity to reflect on how supervision helps you
- Evidence of participation in quality assurance systems as required by the GMC's Good Medical Practice
- A useful means of considering approaches to supervision styles in the context of your own future personal development
Who can use the MSF tool?
The tool is available for all named educational and named clinical supervisors working in London healthcare organisations.
How does it work?
To obtain feedback from trainees, supervisors will need to follow three easy steps:
1. Activate your account on the MSF website
2. Nominate trainees who you have supervised within the past year (you will need to supply their email addresses)
3. If a minimum of five questionnaires have been completed you will receive a report. Your account will remain open until this threshold has been reached (up to 3 years), so that you nominate each new trainee you have until the threshold is reached. We recognise that for some educational supervisors it may take a couple of years to accumulate the data required to receive a report.
How do I get on to the MSF website?
Named educational and named clinical supervisors working in London healthcare organisations can set up an account at New User. Supervisors who have an account can access the site at this Login.
How do I found out more about using the MSF tool?
Please refer to the frequently asked questions section FAQs.

they will not seek any further expansion past the current 12 institutions already in. This obviously comes as a surprise as everyone thought that the Pac-12 would seize Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech and become the first superconference. That apparently will not be happening and it's extremely questionable why not.
I'm at a loss trying to figure out why Larry Scott, being the innovative man he is who nearly brought the house down last summer by pondering expansion to 16, would choose not to further expand. It makes no sense. You are adding in two powerhouse programs in Texas and Oklahoma, plus a rising power in Oklahoma State, which will easily grow the conference's footprint nationwide and extend the reach of the conference's network, which would grow to be a bigger boon than looks like it will already.
But that's not happening now. Is college football better off without the powerconferences? Absolutely, without question. But if an aggressive man like Scott has this type of expansion on the table and walks away, that makes absolutely no sense at all. Considering the fact that the schools did not vote on this, I'm struggling to figure out what the underlying reason is.

Wedding in Louisa, Virginia; Prospect Hill Plantation Inn
This weekend's wedding was absolutely special! It was extra special for me since I went to High School with the groom, Mark! I remember becoming friends with Mark and loving his kind spirit. He had a gentleness about him and smile that went on for days! We were fast friends and had so much fun participating in the school theatre shows and classes together. He was very talented and played a lot of the bigger roles in the plays. Everyone loved Mark!
Now, years have passed since I had spoken with Mark but we were friends on Facebook, etc. I received a phone call from Kate at Glint Events one day and she said that Mark is not only getting married but has requested for me to be his photographer. I couldn't have been more honored!!! I was so excited to see him again and to meet his beautiful fiance, Laura. We all met and laughed throughout our meeting. I felt so lucky to be the one to photograph their big day!
As the big day approached, I was a little hesitant about all this rainy weather but thankfully, it all turned out perfectly. Not a drop of rain until the very end. The location, Prospect Hill Plantation Inn, and the details were just perfection. Glint Events certainly helped create a natural and organic feel to the whole day... warmly lit lanterns, wild flowers, potted plants, and family style dinner. Simply a perfect and heart warming evening. My favorite part of the whole wedding was Mark and Laura's first dance. It was so romantic and you could tell they are truly in love. They picked a really cool song for their first dance... "This Must Be The Place" by Talking Heads. I think it was totally original and totally perfect for them too.
Oh! And I do have another favorite moment of the day... I do have a soft spot for "Daddy First Looks" as well. It was a beautiful moment when they both saw each other and both teared up. You could tell her Dad was just so proud, happy, and in awe of his littler girl. I felt very honored to be there with them during that time. Nothing like a father and a daughter bond. :)
Thank you so much for the honor of being you photographer, Mark and Laura!
Thank you to all these amazing vendors for this beautiful evening!

Death toll rises after Mexico City blast
Feb. 2 - Death toll rises to 33 as recovery efforts continue in Mexico after a blast at the Pemex oil building in Mexico City. Julie Noce reports.
33 people are now confirmed dead after a blast Thursday afternoon at the headquarters of the Pemex oil building in Mexico City, and officials say, that number will go up. As rescue workers sift through mangled debris, more and more victims are pulled from the rubble. More than 120 people were injured in the incident... Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto visited some of the victims earlier on Friday. Officials are now turning their attention to the cause of the explosion, of which there is much speculation-- from bomb attack, to gas leak to a boiler blowing up. One thing that is certain, the state run oil company has been blighted by corruption, inefficiency and frequent accidents.

War has always had
a cost someone has to pay.
Just who and when will vary
from day to bloody day.
You hear, "We're at war!"
and the patriotic sighs
and watch with fascination
someone else go off to die.
It's to keep us safe and sound.
Can't those traitors see?
Its for freedom and to keep driving
a swanky SUV.
And four thousand dead
is not a lot to bear.
We don't fight them here
we fight them over there.
And those wounded in the head,
just keep them from our sight.
It's all worth it in a war
when the cause is in the right
And we don't have to worry,
no calls for sacrifice.
We fight on borrowed money
and leave our kids to pay the price.
So, Iraq has alway been
a cost someone has to pay.
Just who and when will vary.
But not me friend, no not today.

You Ask, I Answer: Fish Oil Supplements/Metal Toxicity Cleansings
Yesterday I attended a talk given by an "applied clinical nutritionist" who works at a local pharmacy.
She really advocated the use of supplements for everyone (probably because the pharmacy she works at generates a lot of revenue through the sale of herbs/supplements and homeopathic remedies).
She recommended taking fish oil instead of flax because she said that flax requires an extra step to be processed by the body.
She said that some people's bodies aren't able to perform this extra step and you would never know one way or another, so she just prefers to stick with fish oil.
Since you often recommend flax, what are your thoughts?
She also talked about "cleansing" (the colon in particular).
Her recommendation wasn't about losing weight, but rather to flush out toxins, no matter how healthy your diet.
She said this is needed to flush out "toxins" that accumulate in our bodies from pesticides in food, air pollution, etc.
The cleanse involves eating certain kinds of foods (she wasn't specific) and taking some sort of supplements that help flush your colon, like magnesium (I think).
All of this sounded sort of unnecessary to me.
Is there any evidence that this type of cleanse is beneficial for people whose diets are already consist of nutritious, whole foods?
— Kristin (last name withheld)
Austin, TX
Before I begin, let me thank Kristin for following up her question with an e-mail revealing the results of her own investigative research.
Turns out that acquiring the "applied clinical nutritionist" title is a simple task.
"It's a self paced certificate program through the Texas Chiropractic College. To earn the certificate, you must be a health care professional, or the staff or student of a health care professional (I suppose you could be a dental receptionist). You have to attend 7 seminars (100 hrs), take a test and pay $1400. In return, you get a shiny wall plaque," writes Kristin.
Sigh. Anyhow, onto Kristin's question.
As far as the fish vs. flax issue, I agree with the speaker, to a point.
It is true that the Omega-3 fats found in flaxseed (ALA) need to be converted by the body to DPA and EHA.
It is also accurate to say that the majority of people do not convert ALA efficiently.
A significant factor inhibiting conversion is that Omega 6 fatty acids compete with Omega 3 fatty acids for the same desaturase (conversion) enzymes.
Keeping in mind that our current food supply contributes an abundance of Omega 6, you can see why ALA –> DHA/EPA conversion isn't happening as optimally as we would expect.
That being said, I still recommend ground flax simply because most people don't consume much of ANY Omega-3's.
Simply put, ground flaxseeds are an effortless way to add some Omega 3's to a variety of foods (not everyone likes fish or wants to eat it.)
I also hope that the speaker's recommendation of taking fish oil supplements was mainly targeted at people who do not consume fish (or sea vegetables, which offer the same omega-3 fatty acids).
I would much rather you get your DHA and EPA from actual food first, and consider supplements a "second best" choice.
Furthermore, I hope she stressed that non-DHA/EPA sources of Omega-3's offer a wide array of nutrients.
Ditching walnuts and flaxseed and instead swallowing a spoonful of fish oil every morning isn't necessarily a smart swap.
What I COMPLETELY disagree with her on (and why I doubt she is an RD) is her colon cleanse recommendation. It is unnecessary and not particularly healthy. If people want to "flush out" their colons, all they need to do is consume more insoluble fiber and liquids. Plain and simple.
Not to mention, I would love to ask this expert how, exactly, toxins accumulate in a body with a regularly functioning liver and kidneys. There is no evidence whatsoever supporting the belief that we need to cleanse ourselves of toxins.
What I find most illogical is that people who furiously support colon cleanses apparently fail to realize that colon cleansing eliminates all the HEALTHY bacteria in the human gut and can cause electrolyte imbalances!
If you'll excuse me, I now need to go center myself.

During his campaign for the Presidency, Obama said "I have no intention of taking away folks' guns." He was right. His pick for Attorney General tells us that he doesn't intend to take away our guns. He just intends to make it so difficult for us to purchase and possess them that we won't want them in the first place.

There are the X-men, who seem to be coming at us right, left and centre, with a new film instalment due out shortly. We've had Iron Man times two, Thor, He-Man (okay, it was a while ago, but still ...), the Fantastic Four, umpteen Batmen and Spidermen, Green Hornet and Green Lantern, the Incredible Hulk, Daredevil, Hellboy and The Phantom. Captain America is coming soon and apparently next year he's joining forces with Thor and Iron Man in the film "Avengers". Sounds good to me, but why are we so fascinated with these guys? (Or is it just that the film companies can't come up with any original stories?)
The comic book heroes seem to have all the qualities we try to give our fictional heroes, at least the alpha kind – they're handsome, muscular (have more or less perfect bodies), are always on the side of justice and they're unbeatable. You can depend on them in a crisis and no matter what fate throws at them, they always triumph. The only drawback is that they're not really human. Maybe it's the fantasy of these perfect men we like? The thought that somewhere, out there, is a guy like that – almost too good to be true, but real.
So what does that say about all the poor normal men who don't measure up? Can a normal man actually be as great? Can our fictional heroes? Obviously, they'll never be as physically perfect (and I kind of feel sorry for the actors who have to play those parts, with all the body-building and incessant eating they have to do!), but not everyone wants a muscle-bound hunk, so nicely sculpted will do. For me, a lot of the comic heroes seem to be lacking a sense of humour too, which is a really important hero trait I think. And although they'd be great at protecting you, I don't necessarily want a body guard 24/7.
Still, it's a nice fantasy and my current obsession (apart from Prince of Persia, which I still haven't let go of) is Thor. Angry, larger than life, but still quite human in his emotions, I think he's wonderful! If I was to meet any of the comic book heroes, I'd choose him any day. And he doesn't wear tights, which is always a plus ...
If you could choose a comic book hero, who would it be? (Julie, I think I can guess your answer, but everyone else ...?)

Drivers should be aware of northern Arizona wildlife during monsoons
PHOENIX — As the Phoenix area starts to heat up, many residents will travel north to escape the devastating, triple-digit temperatures.
But officials with the Arizona Department of Transportation are warning drivers to be aware of wildlife while driving in rural areas, as the number of crashes involving wildlife in Arizona tends to spike in June.
"We want people to know that if they have plans to travel in the high country, obey the speed limits and scan the shoulders for wildlife," Doug Pacey with the Arizona Department of Transportation told KTAR News 92.3 FM.
"Most of these crashes occur in rural areas with wildlife, such as deer, elk, bears."
Pacey said 86 percent of crashes with animals occur in rural areas, and 80 percent of those crashes involve wildlife.
"If you see one animal, there's probably more than one," Pacey said, advising drivers to "take it slow" while driving.
The Arizona Game and Fish Department attributes the high number of animal-involved crashes to the monsoon season, when plants green up and water is more plentiful, so animals tend to travel further out.
"There are more animals, more cars," Pacey said. "It's the perfect storm for crashes to happen."
KTAR News 92.3 FM's Jeremy Foster contributed to his report.

"We are looking to close three or four of the deals from introductions that came directly from SixThirty. So that network that they bring to the table is extremely important. we leveraged it quite well and the SixThirty team delivered for us."
"Through SixThirty we acquired two really key customers and one of them is one of the largest private lenders in the United States. They are both going to be key for us in growing our business."
"SixThirty has connected us to the right people within large organizations which has enabled us to engage those firms and to cultivate relationships in St. Louis."
"Our lead mentor has been great connecting us. There's rarely a week where he doesn't make at least five introductions. Whenever we needed him he was there to help us out, and that's been fantastic."
"From a business development perspective, the people at SixThirty have helped make introductions at a very high level to America's biggest financial corporations."
"Just to be able to be introduced to retail investing companies outside of New York was huge for us."
"What makes St. Louis attractive is that it's humble, hungry, and welcoming as a startup community. That was very refreshing for us."
"We really believe SixThirty provided a lot of guidance for us. There were a number of successful entrepreneurs that we had access to, including Jim McKelvey."
"It takes a village to make a successful fintech company. SixThirty is that village."
"SixThirty mentors leverage their considerable banking network not only to make introductions at the President and C-level, but personally walk in with you to the meetings."

Coach Joyner had the following recap on the win at the Mustang Invite. :
The Glenwood boys golf team teed off for the first time in the 2018 season and found a boatload success. The Rams won the Mustang Invite in Shenandoah on Tuesday shooting a 308 as a team beating out 2nd place Atlantic by 10 strokes. The Rams were led by Junior Ryan Leath shooting a +2, 72 garnering 2nd place individually. Colton Book was 3rd overall with a +6, 76. Other place winners for the Rams were Pierce Harrington (6th), Eli Bales (7th), Nick Stavas (8th), and Nate Mohr (10th).
Having 6 guys in the top 10 speaks volumes about the hard work that the boys have put into their game. The greens were varying speeds and the wind played tricks during the round but they stuck with their gameplans and attacked the course all day long. I'm really excited to see what they can do the rest of the year.

I know... nobody reads this blog. And I've kinda left it untended for a long time.
But I need to vent, and in the end that's all this has ever been. A place to vent. A place where one tiny cog of the huge machine with billions of moving parts can cry out in his tiny little voice in a way that will at least leave a mark.
It's a scribble on a middle school bathroom wall. I know that. But it's my middle school and at least a few of my fellow students, family, friends and followers, will be forced to know that there indeed once was a man from Nantucket.
And just now I need to vent.
I stumbled across a New Yorker magazine article today about some new disease. Spores are being stirred up by dust storms out west causing fatal lung infections, and I have not been able to shake a sense of shame and melancholy.
I can't say why this has affected me so much. You see stuff like this all the time. The extinction of whole species. TV commercials of doomed polar bears struggling to find a place to survive and so on are rampant. The slow increase in global temperatures and CO2 levels. Whales and dolphins beaching themselves in a futile attempt to flee the din and stench of the sea. The horrific storms that seem to be finding whole new courses across the globe.
The droughts.
With a storm of the century occurring every two years or so it just seems odd to me that I should be so profoundly affected by a fungal infection that's killing so few people every year that the medical research community hasn't even noticed it yet. I guess because my father and wife both have lung conditions and the idea of suffocating to death is just particularly horrifying to me.
I know... I know... what the hell does any of this have to do with global climate change. I guess I should elaborate.
Most people don't know this but the Great Plains wasn't always a dust bowl. Back in the day, before the civil war, it was a lush grassland. They were literally the great plains. The ground didn't suck up every drop of rain that touched it. There were streams and rivers. And there was life. Everywhere.
And then white people showed up. We slaughtered the buffalo that cropped the grasslands and converted it to fresh topsoil for the coming years. The people that had survived there for millenia dwindled and died in an act of second hand genocide that even Joseph Stalin would have to grudgingly respect.
The grasses died. The ground dried up. And here we are. Some hundred and fifty of us last year, gasping out our last dying breaths. We are paying the price for our grandparents greed, shortsightedness, and ignorance.
I shudder to think what price my grandchild will pay for mine.

As many are aware, Chapman Law Group filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of three nurses and a P.A., against the Michigan Health Professional Recovery Program (HPRP) and the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) for forcing health professionals into unnecessary substance abuse treatment and suspending their licenses for failure to comply. The suit is currently ongoing but given that this is such an important issue for many of our clients, we intend to provide regular updates regarding the status of the litigation.
We are currently in the "class certification stage". This is where the court determines whether or not it is better to resolve the dispute with a class action or multiple individual lawsuits. We filed a motion for class certification last year and have taken the deposition of the Plaintiff's expert, Dr. Wes Boyd, a Harvard professor and consultant who has worked with a number of Physician Health Programs. The Defense has also retained an expert and we intend on deposing their expert early this year. In a few months, we expect that the court will ultimately decide our class certification motion. In the event a class is certified, notices will be submitted to all health professionals who were members in HPRP during the relevant time period.
Please stay tuned to the Chapman Law Group website for more updates regarding the HPRP class action.

I heard reported on the news today that another two foreigners were taken prisoner/hostage in Nigeria. National Public Radio reported that with this hostage taking it brings to a total over 200 foreigners being held in Nigeria by "rebels". While you attend GAFCON and while you come to the United States and while you make speeches and write articles on the poor treatment of conservatives/orthodox in various countries and while you rail against LGBT people over 200 hostages are kept away from their families, friends, loved ones by rebels in your country. I am told, or rather I have read, that you are the most powerful single person in the country of Nigeria. This may be true since you travel on a diplomatic passport, or at least that was also reported in the press.
Why is it that you cannot secure these 200 persons freedom? Why is it that you, the most powerful person in Nigeria, are not working day and night to secure the release of over 200 persons being held in your country, against their will? Why is it that you can work to secure the "freedom" of Americans who feel they are held hostage by the Episcopal Church but go home to thier loved ones, enjoy the ability to take long walks and feel free to reject the rights of LGBT persons yet you cannot work to get these 200 hostages a passport to their homes?
Is it not possible that you might bring some sense of freedom to these rebels, at least enough to allow them to release their hostages and send home those poor unfortunate hostages back to their families? These people really, really fear for their real lives!
Thank you in advance for your generous offer to work to free the hostages in Nigeria.

One wonders just how much ability to spearhead a NOBLE project Bishop Akinola actually has...frankly, dear Fred, if this guy was capable and influential he'd certainly not allow Martyn Minns to lead him around by the nose...and then there is his loyal Bishop Tunde to handle the really difficult/sensitive nogotiations...not much hope of honorable "mission" solutions when one surrounds themselves with liars and thieves...so much for the prisoner release attempt (well, perhaps if there is a hostage freeing fee commission
*things* can be worked out afterall)!
I don't think Akinola will be receiving the Noble Peace Prize anytime soon.

By way of an update, has anyone heard of any hostages being freed? How about negotiations over the freeing of hostages in Nigeria?
Archbishop Akinola, there are literally hundreds of families waiting -- How long is this going to take? Surely you can take a few hours off from chasing gay folks out of your country. Certainly this is almost as inportant!

Assisted Living Communities For the Disables
Assisted living in San Deigo is basically a way of life for all those people who require assistance and support in their daily lives. The government has different programs that are geared towards this aspect and there are some private entities as well that offer these services to all those people who are in great need of it. Generally, these communities are residential places that are run and supervised by proficient personnel and hold an experience in the medical industry or other related fields that are needed to run the place. Most of the administrators of the areas truly encourage interactions among those who live in these residences and even organize different activities for them.
Al those who prefer to qualify for the assisted living, they should be someone who requires support with an activity that is crucial for their daily life functionality. Having a practice that they require assistance with indicates that an individual can qualify for this benefit. Generally, people who are residents of these communities are past the age of 60 and need some kind of support in one way or the other. This does not essentially mean that the residents living in these assisted houses are the ones who need medical care or have some kind of disabilities, but, the residents of these communities are the ones who do not necessarily require going to the nursing homes but need support and assistance in their daily routines. This may include people with some complexities with their hands, eyesights and require some supervision only when needed.
All those people who have special requirements and need to be supervised by medical professionals must register all their necessities with the concerning authorities of the community. This is in order for the government that they actively implement and cater the needs of the people. Those who are proficient for these communities are the ones who are young enough to stay out of their homes for the seniors who are still self-sufficient to live their lives with minimal supervision.
The numerous advantages of assisted living in San Deigo. The very first comprise of the general supervision along care that the facility residents receive from the staff that is there to aid the community. Having medical experts who are qualified enough to supervise the prescriptions and advice of doctors is something that is required in everyday lives for these adults. Some other great advantages include being able to live freely with minimal assistance and being able to socialize with the ones who have similar lifestyles and interests.

How can a company survive with such an incompetent level of ineptitude.If they're inept at being incompetent, does that mean they're perfectly competent? /confuselation :)
Tempted to be snarky and wonder if one of Turbine's former temporary event guys snuck into Funcom for a day, but I won't go there. Or did I just? :p
Sounds like whomever is their community relations and/or events person needs a lesson in properly communicating with people who are not standing directly in front of them. I'm guilty myself of often saying things that the full meaning to me is plainly obvious then I get annoyed when the listeners don't get it, but I don't do that in writing. At least I hope I don't.
- May 24, 2009 at 10:34 PM
Reading through a number of pages of that thread it seems they have not really any tools in the game at all to create special events and it was a low priority for the development team to do something.
Hence the community managers had decided to make something at least, but obviously failed to clarify that it was not much they could create themselves in terms of an event.
But I think also that players might have built this up to be more than even the annoucement made it out to be.
Good to know anyway that running events is not something they have any good support for in the game.
- May 25, 2009 at 1:51 AM
Ouch, sounds like a lot of PR rubbish to me and them trying to cover their asses. They would've been better off just admitting them screwed up.
- May 25, 2009 at 5:53 AM
Oh yeah, OpenEdge, would you fancy doing a link exchange and add each other to our blog lists? I did your blog :)
My blog is: http://blog.weflyspitfires.com/
And do you know why Blogger isn't using my OpenID nickname or website URL? It used to work fine but now it's switched to my real name and OpenID website...

Got ya covered on the link love...as to Open ID, that I have no clue about. It should work...but have you had a blogger account in the past? maybe that is causing an issue.
It does show your ID is "OPEN ID'd", so not sure.
@Scott, Confusing language for a confusing situation...agree?
No matter the case on whether they had event tools or not. It all broiled (yummm,,,not fried) down to wording, and who is in charge.
The CM's did this, and made the company look bad because they fudged it up.
Bad language about the event, led to disaster, and from people who have little to not control of the game.
This is a PR nightmare, and hard to say how this will be fixed now.
I do not know how Funcom can live down more negativity is all.
- May 25, 2009 at 7:23 AM
Nice one! :)
Thanks for the feedback too - I might email OpenID/Blogger about the issue and see what they say.
- May 25, 2009 at 8:43 AM
I'm not Tesh, Edge ;)
But it is certainly a PR problem, although I would not consider it a major problem though. But I can certainly see that it pissed off active players who were eager to get some additional proof that Age of Conan was back in the game. If nothing else, an anniversary is a quite symbolic event.

Oh man...sorry. Had another thread open and was reading a comment by Tesh, and confused you both...lol
And yes, it was a PR problem, that has certainly caused some waves...but, as I found out this morning...not enough to make everyones life incomplete in AoC world.
More on that later

So I'm thinking you haven't experienced cold until you have lived in Nunavut for a winter. Being from Manitoba it can get pretty cold there with -40'c temperatures but here with the wind we seen temperatures -64'c this past week. And this is normal for this time of year! The Hamlet actually shuts down with this cold, so no sewer or water that day. I don't know how the ravens, hares, dogs etc survive these temperatures living outside. The cold hits you like a ton of bricks when we go outside and do not touch anything, especially metal without a good pair of mitts on as you can have instant frost bite. We have frost on the baseboards in the back entrance and also the chimney from our pellet stove. It is very hard to explain how the cold feels, you just have to live through it.
The dogs are doing ok in this weather, they haven't really been out for any length of time. A quick pee and poo and back in they come. Many times we have to pick up one or both pointers and carry them back into the house...not great northern dogs. They must think to themselves "why did you bring me here?"
With the cold comes the sun and I think after a month and a half without seeing the sun I will take the cold. This week Craig and I went out to shoot some pictures, well I took the pictures and Craig was my driver. Craig spotted an Arctic hare coming back from West Arm so he pulled to the side of the road, turned off the truck and I took out my camera and got a couple of shots before the bunny disappeared somewhere under the truck. He tried to start the truck again and it was dead. It was only off for about 5 minutes! A local Inuit man, David, stopped and gave us a ride to find Jim and Sheila for a boost. I guess that is one way to meet people.
It is very dry here so we are running a humidifier all of the time but it is a small one and doesn't do the full house so we also boil water. This week both Craig and I were in the office with the door closed but not fully shut. Blitz came into the room abruptly with this concerned look on his face and in seconds we smelt something burning. Yikes! The kettle was boiled dry and burning and if it wasn't for Blitz warning us who knows what could of happened. What a good boy, needless to say he got lots of lovin' and treats that night.
We are heading to Edmonton on February 1st to visit with my brothers & family, then to Manitoba on the 6th. We decided to keep on heading south so on February 9th we are on a plane again to Florida to visit with Craig's brother Ken, his wife Andrea and our niece Jade. It will be a LeBleu family reunion in Florida as his Mom & Dad, sister Laura and her family will also be there. Craig and I do not have anything major planned but sitting our butts on the beach and getting some sun. We are only there for a week then back to Manitoba for a week to visit with my mom and friends before heading back home to Nunavut.
The sun in Cambridge Bay is here to stay! Tomorrow it will rise at 10:13am and will set at 2:12pm with a altitude of 2° at noon. When we return home at the end of February the sun will be up for over 9 hours. I thought I would have more of a problem not seeing the sun during the winter but it wasn't that bad. Don't get me wrong I love the sun and I am glad it is back. Cambridge Bay has also seen some heavy ice fog this past week and it made for some nice pictures against the sun.
Today's pictures are a mash of the ice fog, animals and sun.
Talk soon!

Key Features:
Softstyle Adult V-Neck T-Shirt
"You only live once! That's the motto: YOLO!" Ever since Drake rapped the now infamous lyric, the world has been inundated with mentions of that life aspiring four letter acronym. The overabundance of YOLO caused people to turn against the term calling it 'carpe diem for stupid people!' No matter where you stand, everyone can admit the adage is hardly new. Thus instead of getting rid of the new school way to describe living life to the fullest, this funny junior v-neck remixes it with some 90's Disney flair! Before YOLO, we had Hakuna Matata! That was our motto!
This design is just one of the many junior v-necks we have to round out your pop culture savvy wardrobe! Our junior v-necks combine famous franchises to end up with true masterpieces of 21st Century pop culture. Disney and rap music: a match made in heaven? Probably not, but what do you get when you take one of the most iconic villains in Disney lore and update his style to modern day swag? Scar meets Drake in this junior v-neck with his new motto. Move over Hakuna Matata. Be prepared for the new generation: YOLO!

Plagiocephaly Click here to download this document in PDFOccipital Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly What is Occipital Plagiocephaly?
Occipital plagiocephaly is flattening of one side of the back of the baby's head.What is Occipital Brachycephaly?This is a flattening across the back of a baby's head.How does this head flattening happen?
Babies' skull bones are very soft until they are about a year old. If a baby lies in one position for a long time, the soft skull bones can become flat. This can develop over a few weeks or months. Putting babies to sleep on their backs has greatly reduced SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), but some babies develop a flat area on their heads.
Some babies:

Most of the time, having a flat spot will not affect a baby's brain growth or development. But a rounded head shape helps a baby's appearance.

Remember that scene in Tommy Boy where Chris Farley and David Spade are
singing along to Its the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel
Fine) by REM? Then they hit a point in the lyrics where they just start
rambling because they dont know the rest of the words and they cant
keep up with the lines? That makes me laugh every time.
Especially since Ive done that myself plenty of times. The funny thing
about that song is were always impressed by our one friend who can
actually sing the whole verse
without looking at the lyrics. So
whats happening there? Why are we in such amazement when our one friend
can actually pull this song off? Arent songs meant to be singable? First lets take a listen. At least to the first verse and chorus. You can even try to sing along (if you dare).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0GFRcFm-aY ContrastThe
first thing you probably notice about this song is the fast pace, and
craziness of the verses. Thats this songs thing. Thats who it is.
Its a big ball of chaos. Well, in its verses, anyway. The chorus
(starting at Its the End of the World
) is slow, and drawn out. At
least compared to the verses. Contrast between sections is the
way we distinguish one section from another. One (of the many) ways to
achieve such contrast is to change the rhythm and length of our phrases
between sections. This is the main strategy this song uses to achieve
contrast between its verses and chorus. The verses are super quick and
choppy, while the chorus is comparatively drawn out. Its an effectively strategy.Chaos vs. ClarityIf the lyrics
in the verses actually hold any meaning, they seem to be about chaos.
And if there is no actual meaning, then by definition that still makes
them chaotic. So the verses are really about chaos, which of course
ties back to the whole End of the World idea. When the chorus
hits, it simply proclaims Its the end of the world as we know it
three times as a summation of whats happening in the verses. But the
coolest part happens on the fourth line of the chorus, in the line and I
feel fine. After a crazy, fast paced verse, which gets summed up by
the first three lines of the chorus, the phrase I feel fine is the
most drawn out, with the longest notes of anything weve heard so far.
What we hear is and I feel fine, while the mood of the music is the
most relaxed compared to everything else weve heard in this song. It makes us feel fine. Its
a strategic use of lyrics married to their meaning. Not only do the
verses imply chaos through their words, but they also do so with how the
mood of the music makes us feel. In a contrasting way, the chorus slows
down and feels more subdued, which is perfectly fitting by the time I
feel fine kicks in on the last line. It makes us feel fine, when were
otherwise surrounded by all this chaos.Try it OutTake
a lesson from REM and continue to contrast the feel of your verses and
choruses. Youve got a new way to try that out, by changing rhythms and
lengths of your phrases between sections, like whats done in Its the
End of the World as We Know it (And I Feel Fine). Then to really drive
your lyrical ideas home, see if you can get them to tie into the moods
you create in the music of your verses and choruses. Your songs will
always have the most impact when you can pull this off. Youll know if
it feels right.To learn more songwriting techniques, you can download my free EBook here:http://successforyoursongs.com/freeoffer/

The shoulder of veal can usually be bought at the market for eight cents a pound. Choose a fresh one weighing about seven pounds, and costing about sixty cents; from this we shall make three dishes, namely: ROAST VEAL, BLANQUETTE OF VEAL, and VEAL AND HAM PATTIES. Therefore the proportionate cost for the ROAST VEAL will be twenty cents. Have the butcher chop off the fore leg quite close up to the shoulder, and cut it in neat slices about one inch thick; these you must sprinkle with salt and pepper, and keep in a cool place, together with the blade bone, until the next day, for the BLANQUETTE. Have the shoulder boned, saving the blade; stuff it with the following forcemeat.

Let's face it; getting kids to eat a healthy balanced diet can be hard. On the whole children are not adventurous eaters, and as many will turn their noses up at the mere suggestion of a vegetable many parents are left having to bribe or beg their children to eat their greens.
However, it's easier than you think to get vitamins and minerals into your kids' diets; all you need is a little imagination and a lot of patience. So here are three ideas to get you started straight away.
Blitz it altogether
The phrase 'out of sight, out of mind' is never truer than when applied to children's diets. Many will refuse to even touch a mushroom, but blitz it into tiny pieces in a tomato sauce, and they won't even know it's there.
This method works best for pasta sauces where lots of vegetables can be liquidised and hidden. Try adding courgettes, onions, garlic and mushrooms for a tasty sauce that's easy to swallow.
Get them cooking
Getting your children involved in the cooking process is another great way to get them eating a wider variety of foods.
Kids that wouldn't even take a bite of a dish presented to them by you will happily gulp down something of their own creation.
If you're trying this for the first time, a good one to start with is pizza. You can either buy a ready made base, or if you've got the time, make it from scratch – your kids will love the kneading, throwing and rolling process.
You can pre-chop a range of vegetables and cheeses and have some sliced meat on hand too. Then simply let the kids' imaginations run wild as they create their teatime feasts.
Order a takeaway
This one may seem counter-intuitive but these days many take away meals include healthy options, and are perfect as an occasional treat as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
And with around 17,000 food delivery restaurants easily accessible on the internet, you're bound to find one that specialises in the food that you and your family like.
Include your children in choosing the takeaway and picking their meals, that way when the food arrives they'll be excited about eating it, vegetables and all.

Last week I was emailed a question from a Bride to be who had been injured a while ago and now wanted to get in shape for her Wedding.
She essentially wanted to know the following things…
1 What she can do exercise-wise after her injury.
2 What she should be avoiding exercise-wise after her injury.
3 Any general guidelines for training after an injury.
Her question was a good one, and I wanted to share the information with you.
So here it is…
The "Do's"
When coming back from injury and trying to get in shape or lose weight for your Wedding, it is important to do the following…
Start Simple Don't be tempted to try any complicated movements or use any particularly complicated equipment when you first start out after injury.
Instead keep things really simple by using things such as body weight exercises or using very simple pieces of equipment, such as resistance bands, to apply external resistance in a safe way.
Move Regularly As long as you feel ok to do so, make sure you are moving your body regularly. It does't mean you have to train every day, but encouraging blood flow around your body is great for recovery.
Moving regularly will also get joints and muscles working again that may have been lay dormant for quite some time. The more you move them, the quicker they will get back to full strength.
Ask For Help It may sound simple, but if you haven't done so already, ask for help.
The time after an injury is important, so make sure you seek the advice of a professional to guide you in the right direction.
Also, when you actually get round to exercising, do it with a friend or family member so that they can give you a hand and make sure you aren't doing yourself any more damage.
The "Do Not's"
If you're coming back from injury before your Wedding make sure you avoid the following…
Excess Impact This is especially true if your injury involved any major joints in the body.
Some impact when recovering from injury can be helpful as it requires the body to adapt and grow stronger in response to the impact applied to the body.
However, too much impact can be detrimental to recovery, especially if your injury was a fairly serious one.
Try and avoid exercise such as running, jumping, or any contact sport until you feel the injured areas has regained a good level of strength.
Run Before You Can Walk…No pun intended here!
Metaphorically speaking, don;t run before you can walk when you come back from injury.
By that I mean take things slowly and be patient with your recovery. Many people want to start training back from the point where they left things before their injury, but in reality, that is not a wise thing to do.
Instead, take things one step at a time and get a feel for how your body is recovering after exercise and see how it responds to being pushed a little harder each time.
Now is not the time for trying to set personal bests!
Be Influenced By Classes Classes can be a great way to exercise, and the fact you are in a room full of people can mean you often push yourself harder than you would if you we alone.
Normally I would say this is a good thing.
However, if you are returning from injury and attend a class it can be very easy to get carried away with what everyone else is doing, become competitive, and do something you regret an hour after finishing the class.
If you are going to attend classes straight after injury remember to concentrate on what YOU are doing and not everyone else. Take it slowly and let the instructor know you are injured so that they can provide you with alternative exercises if need be.
Wrapping Things Up…
Coming back from injury is frustrating at the best of times.
But when you know you have a Wedding around the corner and want to get in shape it becomes unbearable for some.
Remember that the majority of your results will come from nutrition and that if you stick to your plan with that, you can allow yourself to slowly build up the exercise and still get great results.
Despite being immensely important, your Wedding day is just that……a day!
Don't be tempted to do things you shouldn't just to look a certain way for one day whilst jeopardising your long term health and fitness.

National Flag of Namibia
Country: Namibia
Proportions: 2:3
Namibian Flag Description:
The flag of Namibia consists of three diagonal stripes - the top stripe is blue; the middle is red; and the bottom stripe is green. The blue and green stripes are of equal size. The red stripe in the middle is bordered on the top and bottom by a thin white stripe. In the top blue stripe there is a golden sun with 12 straight rays.
Namibian Flag Meaning:
The chairman of Namibia's National Symbols Sub-committee described the Namibia flag as follows: Red - represents Namibia's most important resource, its people. It refers to their heroism and their determination to build a future of equal opportunity for all; White - refers to peace and unity Green - symbolizes vegetation and agricultural resources. Blue - represents the clear Namibian sky and the Atlantic Ocean, the country's precious water resources and rain; and the golden-yellow sun represents life and energy.
Namibian Flag History:
The Namibian flag was adopted on March 21, 1990 when Namibia, then known as South West Africa, gained independence from South Africa. The flag's main colors are the same as the 1971 flag of SWAPO (South West African People's Organization), the most important liberation movement. That flag consists of horizontal stripes of blue-red-green, the most important colors of the Ovambos, the largest ethnic population in Namibia.
Interesting Namibian Flag Facts:
The Namibian flag was chosen by a committee which had been set up to provide technical advice on new national symbols. The public was requested to enter designs and 835 of them were sent in.

Jail for SuperJoel
So when SuperJoel's sister told me in a comment on this blog that he had died it started my mind connecting to the true feeling in me and a need to express what ever connection that came up.
There are branches from the streams that leads from one memory to another. As with Kathy Soliah to Joe McDonald to SuperJoel and back to Country Joe.
Country Joe McDonald sits with daughter Seven at the Cafe Mediteranian in Berkeley (approximately 1975).
When SuperJoel took the rap for the whole community after the People's Park protests Joe did a benefit for Joel.
When to sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste;
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
From precious friends hid in death's dateless night,
And weep afresh love's long since cancelled woe,
And moan th' expense of many a vanished sight.
And I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
But if the while I think of thee, dear friend,
All losses are resored and sorrow ends.

The Studio Group presents a double bill of short plays by special request - following the presentation of an extract from David Mamet's Sexual Perversity in Chicago recently.
Running from March 15 to 19 at the Workshop Theatre, this promises to be an hilarious evening of two brilliant one-act plays, which are both timeless and as absorbing as ever.
Sexual Perversity in Chicago is a quick-fire, witty and extremely funny play about the continuing battle of the sexes.
Set in the 70s, the dialogue is sharp, truthful and at times shocking and explicit. Bernie (Paul Varnham), a rabid misogynist who regards women as meat tells the tall sexual tales of a man whose luck is rarely in.
He is joined by Luke Garbutt as Danny, who recently returned to the Studio Group. Tara Lassey is Joan and Jade Moody is Deborah. It's fun, if sometimes painful.
The play is coupled with Harold Pinter's The Dumb Waiter.
The play recently enjoyed huge success in the West-End.
This is a funny, unpredictable, sinister, black comedy of menace, with dialogue that manages to turn ordinary, everyday language into something that makes one want to burst into uncontrollable convulsions.
Lee Whitton and Harry Myers, take on the challenging roles of Ben and Gus.
Sexual Perversity in Chicago and The Dumb Waiter sare directed by Lottie Ward.
Advance tickets at £10 and £8 for concessions can be bought by calling 01422 323688.
