Next Stop: A Return to Lovely St. Lucia
It's turning out to be a very busy year end for me. I'm still processing Oaxaca and the beauty of Huatulco but this week I'm off to one of my favorite islands, St. Lucia. This press trip is sponsored by Coconut Bay Resort, where you may recall, I experienced the unexpected pleasure of paintball in paradise, a few years ago. I'll be tackling another unlikely adventure this time, with a dive into kite surfing as well as stand-up paddle boarding. Wish me luck on that, I'm not known for having great balance so we'll see how this turns out. I'll also return to St. Lucia's famous drive in volcano and take a catamaran journey around the island. One thing I won't be attempting this time, is scaling St. Lucia's twin peaks, The Pitons, one of which is captured above.I need to leave something for the next visit! Stay tuned for St. Lucia posts and pics next week.

The shaded camp affords extraordinary views over the Selinda Reserve's prolific floodplains and savannas. Dotting the landscape is commanding borassus palms, where nesting birds roost and baboon spy. The extensive raised decks, surrounding both the main lounge and guest tents, allow guests to enjoy a meal or a relaxing afternoon while still enjoying wildlife viewing. There is a hardly a moment in camp where there isn't an animal in sight.
Each of Selinda Camp's nine spacious, sturdy canvas tents are shaded with thatch roofing and are raised on wooden decks. Comfortable three-quarter sized beds dressed in fine linen are draped with flowing mosquito nets to complete the romantic atmosphere. Each bed can be joined seamlessly to create a grand extra-large double bed. Ceiling fans, combined with roof vents, bring the African breeze in, cooling the surrounds. For moments of reflection, a writing desk and lounge furniture provide a private respite. A large private verandah, extends into the bush and provides each tent with a slice of it's own private Africa. Selinda's little surprise is the extended en-suite dressing and dual basin vanity area and bathroom complete with a deep stone bath and antique shower – accessible via sliding wood doors, for privacy or an open-air feel and guaranteed luxury.
If the cool shade of the thatch simply isn't enough to quell the midday heat, then a plunge pool is tucked away from the main area. Offering privacy and lush surrounds, it is a fabulous afternoon retreat. In-room massages are available (at additional cost).

It is the second time to write this chit-chat since I have been a reporter of The UOS Times, which was the spring of the last year. I am glad that I can still work as a journalist, and I hope I can work with more people this year.

Training transforms lives and is on the heart of UNESCO's mission to build peace, eradicate poverty and drive sustainable development. Teachers do not necessarily have to have a educating degree, although there are necessities set by the accreditation board. (I.E. The Association of Christian Schools International, a effectively acknowledged accreditation board for personal faculties, states that a instructor must either have a educating diploma or grow to be certified by way of the ACSI board, which gives its own skilled credentials). The president's proposal general reduces the federal government's position in greater education and can encourage extra students to turn to the personal market to finance their loans. That may shield U.S. taxpayers while curbing runaway tuition costs.
Our trendy education system must be revised utterly. It's so boring and educate us nothing about actual life. Be sincere about the difficulties and challenges that you've got had with general schooling collaboration prior to now.

For ten years my regulation college had a Dean who outlined his job as retaining himself as Dean. You recognize what this implies – for a mid degree legislation school like my very own it means avoiding any shake-ups, pleasing nearly all of school most of the time whatever the consequences for the students, taxpayers and other shareholders, selecting battles very very fastidiously with only the people who are not a part of any discernible constituency. Mainly, that Dean averted any determination that would upset folks. He shifted them to the college as a substitute inflicting all kinds of unwell will that would have been prevented if he had merely stood for one thing other than conserving himself as dean.

text: I had a question regarding partnership firms like harmon trading group. I believe there's a difference in that versus a traditional prop firm which screens the traders. Basically, I'm looking for a list of some "good" partnership groups since I'm looking for a partnership to allow for 4:1 margins and a way around the nasd 2520 pdt regulation. The 9.95 commission of harmon trading doesn't seem too bad but the risks of the group blowing up scare me a bit (and I know it's there for all such companies but are there any companies with a longer track record and don't have stringent filtering for traders). I did some searching here and found a few threads but it seems that everyone more or less dances around giving actual names to look for. I was wondering what the reason was behind that and where I'd be able to actually go about finding some companies who would cater to my needs. I am looking into options trading and forex but for the time being, I'm trying to stick to something I've already become marginally comfortable with while I do some research before advancing further along. Thanks for any input

How to GoTake the Champagne Train Eurostar to Champagne from London via Paris is now 4 hours. Your group could meet with our guide in the Champagne Bar, St Pancras Station and travel by private rail coach with a champagne breakfast. From Paris, after a quick change, the new TGV service will whisk you into Reims in 45 minutes. If you are arriving by air, we will meet you with private chauffered minibuses at Paris (CDG) Charles de Gaulle airport and take you swiftly in 75 minutes into Reims. Reims has its own Betheny airport if you want to charter a plane and fly right in. It is quite possible now to go from London by Eurostar, check into your hotel, lunch in a Reims restaurant and arrive to be greeted at a Champagne house for a tour by 2pm.
Where To StayVa Va Room The Hotel De La Paix, (above) truly central in Reims, is a good 3* option, well-refurbished in the last few years. There's true swank at the Chateau Les Crayeres for small groups (below). Out of town, the rooms and food are gorgeous at the 4* Hostellerie La Briqueterie (below) in Vinay. Chateau d'Etoges to the south of the Cote des Blancs is one of our favourites, especially if you want business meetings on your tour. (below)
RestaurantsBubbles and Squeak
You will surely squeak with delight to sample Champagne's food. Illustrated here are dishes from chef magician Didier Elena at the 2* Chateau de Crayeres in Reims.
Your group could equally eat at L'Assiette Champenoise (2*), La Briqueterie (1*) in Vinay, or the simpler chic but relaxed Bistrot 7 in Epernay, for lunch perhaps.
And no one should miss a trip to the art deco classic Brasserie Boulingrin (below) in Reims either, proof that good champagne and robust food are as matched as fine dining.
'We so enjoyed the weekend in Reims. The organisation was superb and we congratulate you.'
'Thank you for all the effort you put into the trip to Champagne...Alex and I had a wonderful time and felt incredibly privileged to visit such magnificent properties, while your insight and commentary helped put it all into context. The work you put into the organisation showed in the incredibly smooth operation of a fairly packed itinerary for a large party with a highly diverse perception of speed and timeliness. Well done, and thank you.
'Many thanks for arranging a most splendid tour of Champagne. You certainly opened many doors which would otherwise have remained locked to us.'

At the beginning of 2017, I became involved in a locally produced small-budget independent film production entitled Antaries. Set in space, Antaries revolves around the 6-member crew of the an interstellar cargo vessel who find themselves in a life-and-death situation with a vicious, unstoppable alien.
Shot in and around Adelaide, South Australia, and featuring a cast and crew of local talent, Antaries is a film where the focus is on the unseen and the unknown, rather than an explicit depiction of a creature. Director Thorin Cupit has previously worked with us here at Fernby Films, reviewing Schoolyard Justice back in the day, and I was brought to the Antaries project as cinematographer and editor.
The film is currently in the post-production phase – principal photography wrapped on October 21st, having commenced early in 2017.
You can read more about the project at the official homepage, and watch the latest trailer below.

A recent report about the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's Carrier Safety Measurement System determined that the system is an effective and helpful tool in its work to make our nation's highways and roads a safer place. The report concluded that tracking the safety record of commercial truck drivers and companies provides a real benefit.
CSMS Documents Safety Record
As I noted in a previous post, the FMCSA launched an updated version of the Safety Measurement System Website. The purpose of the redesign was to make it easier for the public (including shipping companies) to determine the safety record of truck drivers and trucking companies. The updated site also further enables those commercial truck drivers, trucking companies and bus companies with poor safety records to learn how they can improve their respective safety records.
As a truck accident attorney, I applaud the FMCSA for working hard to make this tool available. In a day and age where so much value can be achieved by sharing information online, it's important that the federal government and the trucking industry do so too. The safety of our roads depends on it.
Study Investigates Effectiveness of CSMS
In January 2014, the John A Volpe National Transportation Systems Center released a report following its study of the effectiveness of the FMCSA's Carrier Safety Measurement System. A part of the U.S. Department of Transportation, the National Transportation Systems Center is a federal agency which assesses the needs of the transportation community, evaluates research and development endeavors, assists in the deployment of state-of-the-art transportation technologies, and informs decision- and policy-making.
The National Transportation System Center report entitled "The Carrier Safety Measurement System (CSMS) Effectiveness Test by Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Categories (BASICs)", concluded the following:
"… the CSMS as a tool is effectively supporting FMCSA in its mission to reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses by improving safety and compliance."
Based on that analysis, I hope that the truck industry embraces trucking safety record tracking as a way to assure only competent, fit and safe trucks and drivers are operating on our nation's highways.

- php-http/guzzle6-adapter: ^1.0
see https://www.versioneye.com/api/ for API documentation
There are 2 ways to install it:
- Download the Phar (recommended)
- Install from source code
Download the Phar (recommended)
download the latest version from the Releases section or from the cli:
$ wget https://github.com/digitalkaoz/versioneye-php/releases/download/1.0.0/versioneye.phar //or latest stable
Install as global Composer Package
$ composer g require digitalkaoz/versioneye-php
now you can run
~/.composer/vendor/bin/versioneye maybe add this folder to your
PATH variable.
Install from source code
first you have to decide which
http adapter to use. The library supports all adapters supported by php-http/httpplug
$ composer require digitalkaoz/versioneye-php
all API endpoints are implemented, see https://www.versioneye.com/api/ for their detailed docs.
<?php use Rs\VersionEye\Client; $api = (new Client())->api('services'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Services $api->ping(); //array //other implemented APIs $api = (new Client())->api('github'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Github $api = (new Client())->api('me'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Me $api = (new Client())->api('projects'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Projects $api = (new Client())->api('products'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Products $api = (new Client())->api('sessions'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Sessions $api = (new Client())->api('users'); // Rs\VersionEye\Api\Users
Here some usage examples.
$ bin/versioneye services:ping
$ bin/versioneye products:search symfony
Or with the phar file.
php versioneye.phar products:search "symfony"
php versioneye.phar products:show "php" "symfony:symfony"
The last command requires that you have setup your API Key correctly.
to store your generated API Token globally you can create a global config file in your home directory:
~/.veye.rc we share the same config file with the ruby cli https://github.com/versioneye/veye
the file would look like:
:api_key: YOUR_API_TOKEN
now you dont have to pass your token on each call!
##CLI Tool
to build a standalone phar, simply execute the following commands.
$ composer require --dev kherge/box
$ vendor/bin/box build
$ php versioneye.phar
The Commands are autogenerated by introspecting the API Implementations. Each Public Method is a Command, each Method Parameter will be translated into a InputArgument or InputOption.

default HTTP-Adapter
since we are relying on php-http we dont ship a default http implementation. (for dev we do)
choose one of these Client Adapters and require it with composer
puli will discover it for you, and we will use it!
implement a new HTTP Adapter
simply implement the
Rs\VersionEye\Http\HttpClient Interface:
<?php class MyHttpClient implements HttpClient { /** * @inheritDoc */ public function request($method, $url, array $params = []) { //implement your own special http handling here } }
and then pass it the the Client:
<?php $api = (new Client(new MyHttpClient))->api('users');
writing a new Api
simply implement the
Rs\VersionEye\Api\Api Interface:
<?php namespace Rs\VersionEye\Api; class Foo implements Api { /** * awesome api endpoint */ public function bar($bar, $bazz=1) { //implement api endpoint } }
the you have to register the Api in the
CommandFactory (maybe even that could be autogenerated by searching all implementors of Interface
<?php class CommandFactory { /** * generates Commands from all Api Methods * * @param array $classes * @return Command[] */ public function generateCommands(array $classes = []) { $classes = $classes ?: [ //... 'Rs\VersionEye\Api\Foo' ]; } }
be aware that each public method would be exposed as
Command. Mandatory Parameters will be
InputArguments, optionals will be a
InputOption. The Command description would be taken from the
So the above example will be generated to this
foo:bar --bazz=1 bar //awesome api endpoint
Writing a new Console Output Formatter
by default the
Command tries to find the same API method in the Output Classes (if not it will output the data as simple
Rs\VersionEye\Api\Github:sync API ---->

This past Saturday we celebrated Alyssa's 3rd birthday with a Minnie Mouse themed party at the Fun House.
It was a day filled with lots of fun spent with family and friends and everyone had a fantastic time. The water slide seemed to be the most popular attraction at the party – Alyssa changed into her swimsuit within minutes of arriving at the venue and most of the kids followed suit!
Fun House is an absolutely amazing an convenient venue. It's not too far from our home, they take care of all the decor and they also cater! All we had to do was bring our cake and ourselves! I didnt even bring the cake…. my good friend who baked Alyssa's safari cake last year, outdone herself once again 🙂


text: Few studies were done to assess the knowledge of the impact of tapered work rolls in the finishing mill during hot rolling. Hansson, L.et al. studied the use of advanced process models for plate and strip rolling in the Scandinavian Steel Industry [1]. Their work thatincludes simulations of work roll shift with tapered and CVC rolls have results a basis for new investments for profile and flatnesscontrol equipment in steel rolling mills. Rosenthal D. et al. studied a method of influencing the strip contour in the edge region of arolled strip [2]. Special CVC rolls were used as work rolls for influencing the strip contour in the edge areas and to study.Concerning this project, early analysis of work roll data suggested that the tapering of the work rolls was subordinated to the CVCprofileand that a greater than allowed tapering would not affect the result of the rolling process. A grinded profile which is out oftolerance on the other hand, would result in a change in CVC-profile.The purpose of this project was to study the impact of the tapering on the work rolls during hot rolling in the finishing mill. Customgrinded work rolls of CVC-type have been placed in finishing mill, stand 6 (F6) and the axial loads during the following rolling hasbeen studied and evaluated. The deviation of the centre of a strip, flatness of a strip as well as the equivalent camber of the work rollshave also been analyzed for further evaluations of the impact on the rolling results.Theoretically calculation model of the profile of the CVC work rolls and axial force directed toward roll edges was described. Customgrinded work rolls of CVC-type have been placed in mill stand number 6 and the axial loads during the following rolling has beenstudied and evaluated.The impact of tapered work rolls towards CVC profile, axial force, the deviation of the centre of a strip and flatness was presented.The work project finally resulted in new guidelines in grinding of the work rolls in the finishing mill.The work is done in the finishing mill of the strip rolling mill, Figure 1. The strip rolling mill comprising six-high rolling stands wherework rolls and backup rolls at stand 2 to 6 are containing CVC work rolls.Data of the specific strip rolling mill, the type and the characteristics of the used work rolls and strip properties were described [3].Due to different rolling conditions; high temperature in the early stands (thermal cracks) and low temperature and high incident rate inthe last stands (mechanical damage), HSS and HCr rolls were used in stands F1-F3 and IC rolls in stands F4-F6. The studied work rollwas of IC type.

Digging into DevOps with AWS and Terraform
During our session at AWS Loft in Munich on November 22nd we presented "How to deploy AWS Infrastructure in a true DevOps fashion" using Terraform, AWS Codepipeline and AWS Codebuild.
As best practise Cloudreach suggests to deploy infrastructure as a code using AWS Cloudformation, AWS CLI or our tool Sceptre. For the purpose of this article we will focus on Terraform in order to evaluate a different tool.
What is Terraform?
Terraform is a general purpose infrastructure construction tool which supports multiple public cloud providers. Although it's not an abstraction layer allowing users to create infrastructure on any cloud provider using the same code, it is powerful in that the same syntax can be used to create resources in multiple public cloud providers.
Terraform uses its own configuration format (TF) to describe desired infrastructure resources. The TF format also provides for variables, conditionals, and iterators while still being readable. JSON is also supported, as an alternative to the TF format. JSON allows for other tools and languages to leverage Terraform's wide array of features.
One of Terraform's most attractive features is how it tracks and maintains its configuration data. Configurations are tracked through the "terraform.tfstate" file, which can be stored locally or in a shared location (e.g. S3 bucket) for collaborative efforts. In the latter case, Terraform provides for execution locks so that the target environment is only manipulated by one Terraform execution at a time, preventing overlapping errors. In those cases where infrastructure resources have been modified outside of Terraform, Terraform provides facilities to safely ingest new/modified resources or delete non-existent resources from the terraform.tfstate file.
Terraform is an active open source project, where the community keeps the tool up to date with new features quickly. The source code can be found here.
For the scope of this demonstration we will deploy the followings architecture.
Dedicated pipeline defined in Cloudformation template will provide the automatic deployment of the full environment.
This pipeline allows:
- Use of AWS technology only (such as CodePipeline, CodeCommit, CodeBuild, SNS)
- No use of Jenkins to orchestrate deployments
- Reduction of costs
- Performing a full deployment on every "git commit"
AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed build service in the cloud. AWS CodeBuild compiles your source code, runs unit tests, and produces artifacts that are ready to deploy. AWS CodeBuild eliminates the need to provision, manage, and scale your own build servers. It provides prepackaged build environments for the most popular programming languages and build tools such as Apache Maven, Gradle, and more. You can also customize build environments in AWS CodeBuild to use your own build tools. AWS CodeBuild scales automatically to meet peak build requests.
AWS CodePipeline is a CI/CD service that allows defining processes for application and infrastructure updates. CodePipeline integrates with code repositories (e.g. AWS CodeCommit, GitHub), build systems (e.g. Jenkins), testing products, deployment tools (e.g. AWS CodeDeploy). It also orchestrates the inputs, actions, and outputs of each step in the process. CodePipeline comes with pre-built plugins and, if needed, custom plugins can be created to integrate with other third-party tools.

Download (PDF version): Create an invoice or credit note
Video Transcript: Create an invoice or credit note
Hello, this video was designed to show you how easy it is to submit invoices and credit notes via the Tungsten Network portal.
From the Home page, click "Create Invoice". You also have the option to click "Invoicing" in the main menu bar. Next, click "Create Invoice".
To begin, select your customer by clicking the blue circle located under the customer section. Once your customer has been selected, please choose if you are submitting an invoice or credit from the drop down menu. After entering your unique invoice or credit note number, click "Create".
Please enter your name, phone number and email address in the "Your Details" section. Enter the name, phone number and email address for your customer contact in the "Who you are invoicing" section.
Tungsten Network also gives you the ability to save contact details. To save a contact that will be referenced on future submissions, click the blue circle next to "Your Details" and "Who you are Invoicing" sections.
If shipping products, enter the "Ship from" and "Ship to" address. if the "Invoice from" and "Ship from" addresses are the same, or you have not shipped products, do not click the box to enter the "Ship from" address. Tungsten Network also gives you the ability to save shipping addresses. To save a shipping address for future use, please click the blue circle next to the "Ship to" section you would like to update.
When creating an invoice or credit note, it's important to ensure the document type is correct. If you would like to update the document type, please select "Invoice or "Credit Note" from the drop down menu. Please make sure the Invoice date, Payment due date and Delivery date are selected using the calendar. This will ensure your date is in the correct format upon submitting your invoice or credit note.
Your Currency has been preselected for you based off the country shown in "Your Details" section. If changing the currency, you must enter the currency exchange rate located at the bottom of the page. If the country shown in the invoice from address is invalid, please visit "My Account" located at the top of the page to update your company's "Invoice from" address.
Many customers receiving invoices from Tungsten Network require only one purchase order number per invoice or credit note. It's best to become familiar with your Buyer's requirement as you may have special permission to reference multiple purchase orders per invoice or credit note. If your customer does not require a purchase order number, please bypass the purchase order number section.
To enter a line item, select "Add". Select the line item type from the drop down menu. Your first line item must be a "Good" or "Service" line item. After you have satisfied the requirement, you are allowed to enter other line item types such as Special Line items. Enter the description and code/part number if applicable. The system requires your unit of measurement, quantity and unit price.
If referencing tax on your invoice or credit note, select the tax type from the drop down menu. Some users may not have the option to enter tax at the line level. These users are located in a region where tax must be entered at the "Summary" level.
Click "Additional Line Level Information" if you wish to add additional information and/or a date range to your line item. Once all line item details have been entered, press "Save Line Item".
It's important to note you have the option to add additional line items or you can continue to create your invoice or credit note as the system does allow entry of multiple line items per invoice or credit note.
When submitting a credit note, please ensure to provide the original invoice number, original invoice date and reason for your credit note submission. In the invoice line item section, do not enter negative values in the quantity or unit price fields. The system does not allow the entry of negative signs. When the line item is saved, the document will be treated as a credit note. The Gross Amount will not reflect a negative value.
If you have an attachment, please upload prior to submitting your invoice or credit note. The attachment option should be used for supporting documentation that is required to approve your invoice or credit note. Please do not attach an additional copy of an invoice.
If requesting early payment, click "Apply A Discount To My Payment" to enter your early payment terms.
If you would like to make changes to your remit details, please do so at this time. Prior to submitting your invoice, press "Preview" to ensure all information entered is accurate. Click "Send" to submit your invoice or credit note. Your invoice and/or credit note has been submitted successfully.
Tungsten Network allows you to track the progress of your invoice once submitted. To access invoice status go to "Invoicing" shown on the main menu and select "Invoice status". Once you submit your invoice or credit note, it will be validated to ensure it is legally compliant and that it has all the required fields requested by your customer. During this time, your invoice will be in a "Sent" status. Once the validation is complete, you will receive an e-mail confirmation notifying you if the invoice has been accepted (passed) or rejected (failed validation), and the invoice status will be updated accordingly. If your invoice has failed, it will not be passed to your customer. It's your responsibility to correct any errors and resubmit, if appropriate. If accepted, Tungsten Network will deliver your invoice or credit note to your customer within 24 hrs and update the invoice status accordingly.

I recently spent an afternoon wandering around the largest, free outdoor art festival in the U.S.A. Artscape is held every year in Baltimore City and entire streets are packed with artists displaying their work as well, live music and many other activities. Later that evening I went to one of my local restaurants and began talking to the owner and a couple of other folks who said they had also spent the afternoon at the festival. They mentioned how disappointed they were at what was on display and since they were both artists "trained" in art school they were appalled at how people could claim their work was art.
While I admit there was lots of stuff on display at the festival that didn't grab my attention or inspire me, there was never a moment when I thought to myself that what the maker was displaying was not art. In fact, as evidenced by the number of people that paused to take a closer look, there were many occasions when what I passed up as not very interesting was clearly very interesting to them.
As the evening wore on and after the folks I was talking to had left I began to wonder what higher being does attending art school make a person? Does art school really teach students how to decide what is art? I have always dreamed of pursuing an education in art in the belief that I would learn how to free up my thoughts and feelings and express my vision in the work that I produce. However, if in doing so I had to allow myself to be brainwashed into believing that some things can be discarded because they do not pass the "art" test then I am much happier being the uneducated artist that I already am. I wouldn't have much need for a text book that tells me what art is, I would much rather have a text book that taught me how to appreciate art in it's many forms, understand it's meaning and critique it accordingly.
In summary, while I think we can decide whether or not we like what we see, I do not think we can decide whether or not what we see is art. If the maker says it is art, then it is art. This is absolutely what I enjoy about art. It is relative.

How to keep track of recently pushed branch Follow
I'm wondering how can i push a local branch to a new branch (not the origin) and keep track of this link for the next pushes in the future.
For example:
I have my principal branch : master.
I checked out a new local branch from master that i named master_new_feature.
After finishing my modifs, i commit then push that branch. However i want to push to a new branch other than push directly to master.
So i choose the option "Push to alternative branch" and name my new remote branch as its local name: master_new_feature.
The question is, if i continue to work with my local branch, the next time i push, phpstorm propose always master as origin thoughout i pushed a new branch to remote server.
Is there a config i have to do in order to tell phpstorm to memorise that now master_new_feature -> master_new_feature
Thans in advance
Hello ;
You must first checkout master, then create a new branch, then do your modifications, then push. When you'll push, a dialog will be show, which allow you to specify where to push (at bottom of the dialog).
Thank you for your answer,
This is a normal behaviour of phpstorm and what i want to change is that i don't want to specify each time the place to push, i want phpstorm to memorise the remote track of the last push so the next time i push, the commits go directly to the remote branch that i pushed before. (I worked on Zend Studio before, and by configuring the Upstream config, iwas be able to tell Zend to do that)
Re ;
f you are following the steps which I've described, it's done automatically.
Indeed, I see the difference.
Thank you very much,

Questions Over Israel's 'Second Anthem'
Questions Over Israel's 'Second Anthem'
A flap has emerged in Israel over the popular song "Jerusalem of Gold." Composed after Israel captured East Jerusalem in the Six-Day War, the song quickly became a sort of second national anthem. On her deathbed, the composer confessed she hadn't really written the melody, but taken it directly from a Basque lullaby. The revelation has set off a round of introspection and recrimination.
JENNIFER LUDDEN, host:
And now a cultural story with political overtones. "Jerusalem of Gold" is one of Israel's best-known songs. It became almost the second national anthem after the 1967 war when Israel defeated the armies of three Arab states, captured East Jerusalem and reunited the holy city. So many Israelis were stunned this month when the composer of "Jerusalem of Gold" acknowledged she had based the melody on a Basque lullaby. NPR's Linda Gradstein has this report.
(Soundbite of song)
Unidentified Woman #1: (Singing in foreign language)
Unidentified Woman #2: `Jerusalem of gold, of bronze, of light, for all your songs, I am a violin.'
LINDA GRADSTEIN reporting:
The music and lyrics were credited to Naomi Shemer, one of Israel's most-famous poets and songwriters. And when it first came out, it touched Jews deeply, according to Stuart Schoffman, a columnist for the leading Israeli newsmagazine, The Jerusalem Report.
Mr. STUART SCHOFFMAN (The Jerusalem Report): It was something about the sentiment about coming back, about the beauty of the city. It was deeply, deeply evocative. And so it went for a long, long time, and the song became enormously popular, not only in Israel but among Jews around the world.
GRADSTEIN: The song was first played at a West Jerusalem music festival just weeks before the 1967 War. In the aftermath of the conflict that left all of Jerusalem under Israeli control, the song was seen as almost prophetic. Noga Tarnopolsky is the cultural affairs correspondent for New York's leading Jewish newspaper, The Forward.
Ms. NOGA TARNOPOLSKY (The Forward): The war both broke up Jerusalem and then unified Jerusalem, and so this song had an added glow, you know, of--this kind of representative of a certain moment, not just a pretty tune, which it always was. But it came representative of a certain ethos of the moment.
GRADSTEIN: And Naomi Shemer became a national icon. So Israelis were stunned recently when the Ha'aretz newspaper published a letter Shemer sent to a close friend just before her death last spring, in which she acknowledged for the first time that the song was based on a Basque lullaby. In the past she'd angrily denied the suggestion. In the letter, Shemer insisted the plagiarism wasn't intentional. She said she considered the entire affair a regrettable work accident, so regrettable that it may have caused the cancer that eventually claimed her life.
There's no denying the common theme shared by the two songs. Here's the Basque lullaby as sung by Paco Ibanez.
(Soundbite of the Basque lullaby)
Mr. PACO IBANEZ: (Singing in foreign language)
GRADSTEIN: And here's the beginning of "Jerusalem of Gold."
Unidentified Woman #1: (Singing in foreign language)
GRADSTEIN: Shemer's letter sparked debate in Israel, not least among musicologists, who argued over the definition of plagiarism. But Menachem Grenit(ph), the director of entertainment for Israel Radio, says it's far from an exact science.
Mr. MENACHEM GRENIT (Israel Radio): You hear music from here and from there. Sometimes you hear something, and you're sure you invented it. It happens to musicians all along the way, you know. John Lennon stole a song about--from Chuck Berry he didn't know about, you know. When he realized, he was surprised. And, you know, there's a famous song by Paul Simon. It's called "American Tune." It's Bach.
GRADSTEIN: In fact, Israel's national anthem "Hatikva" is clearly based on an old Moldavian folk song that was featured in the "Moldau" suite by the Czech composer Bedrich Smetana.
Like everything else in Israel, the controversy over "Jerusalem of Gold" took on political overtones. Over the year Shemer had become associated with the Israeli right wing, and several of her best-known songs were seen as a defense of Israel's expansion of Jewish settlements in the West Bank and Gaza. One famous song, "For All This,"(ph) "Alkol Ayla,"(ph) was written after Israel's pullback from Sinai in 1982. It includes the line, `Don't uproot the planted. Don't forget the hope. Return me to this land.'
Jerusalem Report columnist Stuart Schoffman says many of Israel's left-leaning artistic community felt betrayed by Naomi Shemer, and the controversy over plagiarism was a way to attack her.
Mr. SCHOFFMAN: What it did was it opened up an opportunity to take a big, fat swipe at a woman who is not only a national icon but somebody who was specifically a nationalist icon, who was a representative figure of the triumphalist right.
GRADSTEIN: The Forward's cultural correspondent, Noga Tarnopolsky, says she doubts the controversy will tarnish the way most Israelis remember Naomi Shemer.
Ms. TARNOPOLSKY: In certain media crowds, especially left-wing media crowds, she's being attacked after her death as a plagiarist when, in fact, all she did was take the kind of initial opening syncopation and then made her own song out of it. And I think that's a tremendous talent.
GRADSTEIN: Most music critics say that "Jerusalem of Gold," which Israelis have listened to for almost 40 years, will continue to be played.

Our second expert is Tom Hartmann, Sorted's resident blogger.
Tom was recently surprised by new research that shows that children form their approaches to money by the early age of 7. But if the children in your life are above that tender age, how can you find ways to relate to the money personality they've already developed?
My Money Style is a newly developed online tool for tweens, based on their personalities and the values they have. For each money style, there are also pointers for parents and teachers on how to interact with your kind of kid. Perfect for Money Week.
Here are his Do's and Don't's for teaching your kids about money.
Show them how money is a tool
Piggy banks are out. All the kids' money stays in the same place, you can't see whether it's growing or count how much you've got, and it ends up sitting there doing nothing until you break it open.
Jars are in!
You can use different ones for saving, spending, giving and growing (an entrepreneurial or mini investment fund) – and show the kids how money is a tool they can use for both their needs and wants.
Keep them up with the Joneses
There's a fair bit of keeping up with the Joneses for kids – some because of peer pressure, some because of parents. Whatever the reason, time and time again those Joneses make us shell out more money than we plan to.
The kids can end up being extensions of ourselves, and that's not easy to let go of. It's also one of life's important money lessons – you don't need to spend on something just because everyone else is.
Give them the responsibility
The goal of giving pocket money – besides them getting familiar with counting coins and learning how to squirrel it away – is to give them as much responsibility as possible.
Instead of parents buying them treats, for example, now they can make choices for themselves. The more they do the better.
Buy everything for them
Studies show that when the kids whinge about how bored they are, the best response isn't to buy something for them, but rather encourage them to invent it themselves.
Many times they can be re-routed to more creative endeavours. Especially with the little ones, balloons and a bit of glitter may be all you need.
Have them invoice you
Pocket money only goes so far. It never stretches far enough for them and usually remains the same no matter how many chores the kids do around the house.
Instead, if you set down a list of jobs around the house and agree what each is worth, the kids have a way of making more money when they want to.
One happy result of doing this is that nagging levels plunge at home. If no jobs get done, no money gets paid – no problem!
Let them think that a credit limit is their money
If they start to go into debt when they're older, they will need to learn to manage it. As their credit limit rises, here's one thing they need to hear: "This. Is. Not. Your. Money."
It's really only how much they can borrow – can they really see themselves repaying that much? It may be one of the most valuable things they ever learn about how money works.
Together with the team at the Commission for Financial Literacy and Retirement Income, Tom Hartmann leads the development of interactive tools and content that lets us make informed financial choices. The Commission is the home of financial literacy – it's the agency that built Sorted, a trusted, independent brand to help Kiwis end up on the winning side of their decisions.
With an editing, writing and financial services background, Tom has also lent his voice as Sorted's resident blogger. Leveraging learnings from behavioural economics, he's regularly shed light on ways to establish positive money habits and improve our lives financially.


text: A Philly tradition since 1959, Santucci's isn't serving up your traditional slice -- the pies are square, and the sauce is on top. Toppings are pretty standard, but our favorite is still the Original Signature pie, with extra cheese. The pizza itself is pretty thick -- somewhere between a Sicilian and a grandma slice -- with an abundant helping of sweet, tart sauce.

A company creates wealth for its long-term shareholders in 2 main ways - through dividend payments and through the accumulation of retained earnings. This graph shows the accumulation of per-share equity of long-term shareholders (green bars), which consists of the retained earnings plus all capital invested in the company, and the cumulative dividends the company has paid over time per share of its stock (blue bars).
In the words of Warren Buffett: "We're looking for... businesses earning good returns on equity while employing little or no debt."
Return on equity is a key metric of financial performance, indicating a company's ability to generate earnings using shareholder capital. Over time, ROE is one of the major determinants of the rate at which a company creates shareholder wealth. The average ROE for large U.S. companies is 12%, and many investors use it as a threshold for attractive investments.
Companies can boost ROE by increasing leverage, which reduces the safety of the investment. Therefore, it is useful to look at the return on assets (ROA), which measures a company's earning power regardless of its capital structure. A widening gap between ROE and ROA may be a warning sign that should be thoroughly investigated.
Earnings per share is a popular metric used to value a company (using P/E ratio); growth in EPS is often used to judge company growth potential. However, many investors believe that EPS is an inferior metric to ROE, because it ignores the amount of capital the company used to generate earnings.
Free cash flow shows how much cash a company generates from operations, above and beyond what is required to maintain or expand its productive assets. This cash can be returned to investors, or spent by management on growing the company or paying back its debts.
Balance sheets of many companies contain intangible assets such as goodwill, trademarks, patents, etc. Many investors consider intangibles more difficult to value than physical assets. If intangible assets had been valued incorrectly, they must be impaired, resulting in a loss charged against shareholder equity. This chart demonstrates the potential loss to shareholder equity from such impairments.
Companies often use debt financing to increase their return on equity. However, as the amount of debt financing increases relative to the amount of equity financing, the company becomes more sensitive to down turns and other negative events. As a result, many investors use the ratio of debt to equity as a measure of a company's financial risk, and avoid companies that have this ratio above 1.
This chart shows shareholder equity as a percentage of total assets, allowing investors to judge the overall leverage. Companies with a higher proportion of equity can be viewed as safer investments. This metric is particularly important for highly leveraged institutions, such as banks, where it must be at least 4% according to government regulations.
The ratio of current assets to current liabilities is known as the current ratio. This metric is a quick measure of the company's ability to pay its short-term obligations. A current ratio below 1 is a warning sign that should be investigated, especially for companies that cannot count on adequate cash flow from operations.
This chart shows the cumulative dilution of investor ownership in a company over time. Dilution reduces an investor's participation in the future earnings. Dilution increases when a company issues new shares, and decreases when a company buys its shares back. Many investors avoid companies with large chronic dilution.
analysis provides insight into factors affecting the Return On Equity of a company.
The DuPont equation decomposes ROE as follows:
ROE = (Net margin) * (Asset turnover) * (Asset to equity ratio)
Net margin indicates operating efficiency, Asset turnover measures the total asset use efficiency, and the Asset to equity ratio is a measure of financial leverage.
The dividend payout ratio tells investors what percentage of earnings a company returns to shareholders, and what percentage it retains and reinvests. This ratio represents a major capital allocation decision by the company, and can be used to judge management rationality. Rational management should pay out all earnings that cannot be productively reinvested. Therefore, a low dividend payout ratio for a profitable company with a low growth potential may be a warning sign.
Many investors use the P/B ratio as a quick way of judging company valuation. Value investors - followers of Graham and Dodd - specifically seek out companies with low P/B ratios. However, investors should be careful not to make investment decisions on this metric alone, without considering a company's earning and growth potential, since a low P/B ratio can be a sign of a bleak future for the business.
P/E ratio is a popular way of making a quick judgment of a company valuation. Value investors - followers of Graham and Dodd - often seek solid companies with low P/E ratios as investment opportunities. However, P/E ratio represents an oversimplified approach to business valuation, and can often lead to incorrect investment decisions.
On June 30, 2008, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with Michael Carroll. The Exchange Agreement provided that in exchange for the cancellation and return to the Company treasury of 3,344,900 shares of Company common stock currently owned by Carroll the Company would deliver to Carroll 98,000,000 shares of The Flooring Zone of Georgia, Inc. ("FZ Georgia") currently held by the Company, which represents all of the issued and outstanding common stock of FZ Georgia.
On September 30, 2008 the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement with Profire Combustion, Inc. and the Shareholders of Profire Combustion, Inc., subject to customary closing conditions. All conditions for closing were satisfied or waived and the transaction closed on October 9, 2008. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Agreement, 35,000,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company were issued to the three shareholders of Profire Combustion, Inc., (the "Profire Shareholders") in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Profire. As a result of the transaction, Profire became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. For accounting purposes, Profire is considered the accounting acquirer. In connection with the acquisition of Profire, the Company changed its fiscal year end to March 31 to coincide with Profire's fiscal year end. It is also the Company's plan to change its name to be similar to Profire's name.
On November 18, 2013, the Company completed an equity offering of 2,259,393 shares of restricted Common Stock and received proceeds of $4,332,975, which is net of $592,501 in underwriting discounts, commission and direct costs incurred and paid by the Company in connection with this equity offering.
On July 2, 2014, we sold 4,500,000 shares of our common stock at the price of $4.00 per share, for an aggregate sale price of $18,000,000. The net offering proceeds to us, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by us, was approximately $16,430,000.
On November 14, 2014, the Company, entered into an agreement to purchase the assets of VIM Injection Management Inc. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, the purchase price of the assets consisted of a one-time payment of $750,000 in cash and 265,958 shares of the Companys common stock, which was valued at $1,000,000 ($3.76 per share).

In "Wire Cutters", an award-winning animated short made by Jack Anderson while he was a student at Chapman University's Dodge College of Film and Media Arts. Anderson says the 8-minute film took him over 2000 hours to make. "I can't say I knew what I was doing," Jack told a commenter on Vimeo. Dude — you kinda did know what you were doing. This is impressive, and while one of the two robots bears a slight resemblance to Wall-E, the story plays out in a decidedly un-Pixar fashion.

Some of us are tea drinkers, and some can't start their day without that injection of caffeine first thing in the morning. Which one are you? I like both, mostly tea during the day, and coffee after a nice meal but not last thing at night. Caffeine and I aren't good friends at bedtime and for an insomniac - that spells disaster! Horror of horrors to true coffee connoisseurs - I ask for decaf!!! (smiles)
I waited so patiently for the Coffee Cafe Bundle to arrive, and when it did, discovered I hadn't ordered the Coffee Break DSP which coordinates with it, so I had to wait before that was ordered and delivered! Finally, after 3 weeks' waiting I got to play!
This is the first of many - I hope you like it too.
Did you know that if you click on the pictures, it will take you direct to the item in my online store which will give you more detail on the product and you can place an order if you wish. It would be very much appreciated.
