Reverend Brother Principal, the Faculty of Teachers, Dear Parents, All ye Lads of Maris Stella, Ladies and Gentlemen………Good Evening.
At the very outset I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Rev. Brother Principal for inviting, my wife and I, to witness this splendid Athletic Meet of the Junior School of Maris Stella College, Negombo. And, I consider it as a great privilege and honour given to me being an alumnus of this College, and an Officer in the Sri Lanka Navy. Furthermore, I'm deeply touched by the grand welcome given to us whilst visiting my Alma Mater.
Dear Lads, I recall the days, almost 30 years back, when, at an athletic meet like this, I was no different to one of you standing out there impatiently, listening to the inspirational speech delivered by Rear Admiral Terrence Sundaram, who is a past pupil of this college, graced the occasion as Chief Guest. Ladies, Gentlemen, and Dear Lads, please allow me to steal about 15 minutes of your precious time to, highlight my school days, my early days in the Navy, the Lessons that I learned and some food for thought.
The first thing that strikes my mind reminiscing my school days is all about activities and tons of activities, apart from academics. I, as a young lad, spent most of my time in school taking part in different extracurricular activities, sports, technical projects, Social activities and Clubs, so on and so forth. Or else cleaning and tidying up the premises, or occasionally painting the desks and chairs, and colour washing the classrooms. On rainy days we also loved making paper boats and sailing them in the drains and puddles of water.
Unlike today, we didn't worry much about our transport as we had our push bicycles as companions, neither did our parents have to worry much about our safety and security. We were given ample freedom, plus, time and space to freely move about until sunset. And above all, be responsible for all the actions that we committed.
The biggest lesson that I learned from this prestigious college is how to discipline myself. I mean, self-discipline has a greater meaning and wider connotation. It's not just merely coming to school in time, it's more about; disciplining your body, mind and soul. In other words, disciplining yourself physically, mentally and spiritually. I always harp on the saying that "Discipline is the Foundation for Knowledge", however much of knowledge you have, would be of no use if you didn't have discipline. Visualise yourself constructing a building called knowledge, on the concrete foundation of discipline. If the foundation is weak the building may collapse over time.
Lads, I may ask you, how do you discipline your physical body? In order to do that you have to engage in sports and physical activity. Healthy body leads to a healthy mind. It's not merely playing computer games or fiddling with your electronic gadgets. Rain or Shine, You have to step outside of your house, breathe some fresh air, flex your muscles, improve your stamina and endurance, get wet in the rain, blend with the nature and appreciate the environment that surrounds you. When we were kids we didn't have all these "Electronic gadgets" we only had one thing ……..and do you know what that is? It's called the "Outside".
Lads having said all this, I want to ask you another important question, how do you condition yourself spiritually? Having a healthy body and healthy mind alone is not enough. If you want to reap benefits and achieve success you have to have a spiritual well-being. You need to focus your mind. At least 20 minutes a day, preferably early in the morning. You need to have this undisturbed time for yourself. You have to discipline your mind by negating unwanted thoughts.
This will invariably help you to focus your mind and study better, memorize things better, to recall things as you have memorized, and write appropriate answers in the answer scripts for the questions that are asked. It is a form of meditation and Power of Now, which was taught to us by Rev. Bro. Joseph, when we were in Grade 8 and 9. I can still recall certain things that I memorized in those Grades. Isn't it fascinating? Why not give it a try.
Lads, the next most important thing that I learnt from this college was to inculcate the habit of reading. We spent quite a lot of time in the College Library reading anything that caught our interest. This helped us to widen the sphere of knowledge and to understand things better. I still carry good memories of my school days, and I never had a single bad day in school. Every day we learned something new and did something productive and never wasted time. Ladies and gentlemen, Lads, I didn't do things alone, we worked as a team. We had very good teams within the class, with parallel classes, with senior students and juniors, with Teachers and Masters. We had a good rapport with everybody, and United we stood.
During our care free days in school we didn't quite know what we wanted to do with ourselves once we left school. At that time, we didn't have much of a choice. Either you became a Doctor, Lawyer, Engineer or an Accountant. I chose to become an accountant because, that was, what my parents wanted me to do…. It is very important to do what we like to do. Some of us have a passion for a particular thing or a special skill which we develop over the years. Mine had something to do with ships and boats, and sailing. Not numbers and keeping a count of others balances. That's probably why, I spent a lot of my time making paper boats.
While I was studying for accounting exams I saw a very interesting advertisement in the papers mentioning about a 'Challenging Career'. It was from the Sri Lanka Navy and at that moment, I knew that's what I wanted to do. At the time I joined the Navy, there was a terrible war in Sri Lanka. Your parents would've been young then and some of them may have shared stories about this, with you. And, parents if you haven't, it is important that you enlighten your children on this as it is part of the modern history of Sri Lanka.
Joining the Navy was not only about fighting a war at sea. It certainly was hard work. We had a lot of studying to do and as a result we learned not only about our country but the world around us, plus technical and other subject matter. In the midst of fighting a war I also obtained a Master's Degree in Defence Studies from the University of Kelaniya, through the Army Command and Staff College. Most importantly we were able to develop ourselves personally. The discipline, commitment, determination, courage, enthusiasm, loyalty, integrity, keen to do best, and above all be a good leader, which we developed.
Having had all these qualities, if you didn't Manage Time, would be of no use. You need to schedule your work and your daily routine according to a time table, and manage yourself against time without waiting for your parents to come and do things for you. All of these, which are good habits, which I learned at the College was further enhanced and practised in the Navy.
Lads, you know that to be first in your class you have to work very hard. If you do well your parents will reward you with something special. I too studied hard and did my exams well, and the Navy rewarded me with an opportunity to undergo further training in England, at the prestigious, Britannia Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, as a Midshipman, which is a dream for all young officers. There is a famous saying "Join the Navy and see the world". I was lucky enough to visit more than 20 countries, and sail in most of the oceans. During my career in the Navy for actively and courageously fighting the sea tigers, on board Fast Attack Craft and Fast Gunboats, I was awarded, Rana Wickrema Padakkama and Rana Sura Padakkama, by the President of Sri Lanka, for voluntary bravery in the face of the enemy.
Dear Lads, My wife and I, take pleasure, in congratulating all those who participated in this sports meet. As we all know, there is only one winner, with the second and third following. It doesn't matter if you win or lose; it is how you played the game. The tiring days of practices and missing classes and avoiding homework because you were tired, showed results today.
It was all about working together as a team, and being committed and determined to do your best. These valuable lessons which have been instilled in you by our wonderful school have also brought me to, where I am today. Thank you very much for patient listening. And…..I wish you all the very best in your future endeavours. 'May you sail in the ship of ambitions and anchor in the harbour of success'.
May God Bless you.

"The time when SOMA is finally out is really close now."
Posted By Ravi Sinha | On 16th, Apr. 2015 Under News
Amnesia: The Dark Descent developer Frictional Games has entered the beta stage with its latest horror title SOMA, and it's inching closer and closer to commercial release.
Studio co-lead Thomas Grip reported on the Frictional Games blog that, "This is a huge thing for us and easily the biggest milestone prior to the actual release of the game.
"We now have a build of SOMA that contains all of our desired features. There are still a few bits of art, a few sounds etc. missing, but the game is pretty much complete content-wise."
There won't be any major overhauls at this point and right now, Frictional is prioritizing its development responsibilities en route to release.
"What's left is to make sure that what's there is as good as it possibly can be. Adding effects, improving the art, ensuring stability, making it more intuitive and so on.
"The time when SOMA is finally out is really close now, though, and we'll let you all know a date in the near future."
SOMA will be out on PC and PS4 this year.

So I bought PCARS a while ago in Oculus Home. Then I sold my Oculus and bought a Vive. How can I play the PCARS now? Don't tell me I need to buy it again or use that ReVive hack. There must be a way for people like me who paid full price for the game to play in Vive the right way. Anyone know how to do this??? Thanks!

SPECIAL REPORT: Energy benefits of being local
Communities with municipal electric departments have more control of rates.
By Jesse Floyd
Dec 7, 2016
There are 312 towns and 39 cities in Massachusetts, stretching from Provincetown on Cape Cod to Egremont in the west.
In most, when someone hits a light switch, the power flows from a major utility, such as Eversource. In a select few, including Belmont, Boxborough, Concord, Littleton and Wellesley, the juice has a more local origin.
Those communities are among the 50 municipalities served by 41 local utilities. Municipal utilities set their own rates and provide service to local customers. The 41 municipal light plants in the state provide electricity to about 15 percent of the available customers, according to the Massachusetts Alliance for Municipal Choice.
Littleton's municipal electric department was started in 1912 and provides power to neighboring Boxborough as well. The Littleton Electric Light Department serves 6,900 residential customers and 400 commercial/industrial customers.
According to the alliance, Concord is a mid-size municipal light plant. In 2007, it provided 181,7 million kilowatts to 7,700 customers. It employs around 21 people, including 11 linemen.
Advantages to being local
A study done by then-Gov. Deval Patrick's administration cited lower costs, improved reliability, and greater responsiveness to local energy initiatives.
"I think the big thing is it's local control," said Scott Edwards, general manager at Littleton Electric Light Department. "We serve Littleton and Boxborough, but the residents of Littleton have control over the light department. They elect the commissioners. The commissioners are citizens - ratepayers."
Those ideas: More local control, more individual attention more personalized service, were echoed by just about each municipal utility interviewed.
"Having local control over services provided, because we have local control, we end up with a higher level of reliable electricity, a higher quality of customer service, and more personalized service," said Jim Palmer, director of the Belmont Light Department.
Having people sit on the board for the light plant was cited over and over again as a major advantage for a municipal electric plant.
"In Wellesley, the light plant is governed by a Municipal Light Board consisting of five Wellesley residents. Unlike utilities with large customer bases that are forced to implement 'one size fits all' policies among towns and cities with vastly different social and economic disparities, the Wellesley Light Board can design and implement policies that specifically target the characteristics of town residents and businesses," wrote Debra Healey, assistant director of the Wellesley Municipal Light plant, responding to questions from the Wellesley Townsman.
"The decision is...; right here," Edwards said of municipal electric departments. "We don't have to go to a board of directors and stockholders. We can be very reactive."
In conjunction with local control, another big advantage is cost, according to a study on municipal light plants commissioned by the Metropolitan Area Planning Council. Among the study's findings: Local light plants can keep costs lower because they are not beholden to investors and not required to turn a profit to keep investors happy.
"We don't make profits. We don't have stockholders," said Edwards. "All of our profits basically go back either to the ratepayers or to the system for improvements."
Customers of local utilities also enjoy rate stability. Littleton has the lowest residential rates in the state, according to Edwards.
The average customer of a municipal light plant paid between 38 percent and 47 percent less than the average investor-owned utilities, according to the Massachusetts Alliance for Municipal Electrical Choice.
After accounting for the differences in funding of energy-efficiency, renewable and low-income programs, major utilities still charge $30-$35/month more than local plants, on average, according to the Alliance.
Being local also helps when there are problems: According to Palmer, Belmont had power back within 12 hours after Superstorm Sandy came through in 2011. Surrounding towns, not served by a municipal plant, went several days without power. The number of workers and the familiarity with the system architecture make responding to problems easier, he said.
Green energy
Whenever discussing energy in 2016, the source - and its credentials as "green" or environmentally friendly - often come to the forefront. Because they are local, the initiatives around green energy are also local.
Littleton has used funding from the Green Communities grant program by the Massachusetts Department of Energy and Environmental Affairs to replace half of the approximately 800 streetlights in town with LED bulbs and make energy efficiency upgrades for the School and Water Departments.
In Belmont, the municipal plant has been involved in the push for rechargeable electric vehicles. The town hasn't established charging stations as yet, but the municipal light plant is offering incentives to purchase electric vehicles, and also offering incentives to put in a smart charger, monitoring electric use.
Belmont light, like other municipal plants, is paying back solar customers at a set rate, based on the power generated.
The Littleton electric department purchases electricity from a variety of sources. The focus in recent years has been signing contracts with renewable energy sources. Edwards predicts the power provided by Littleton will be 25 percent from renewable sources by 2020.
"We've been buying a lot of renewable power," Edwards said. "We've always had quite a bit of hydropower, but now we're getting into wind and solar."
Reporters Henry Schwan, Cathy Brauner, Molly Loughman, Joanna Tzouvelis, and Alexander Silva contributed to this report.

Complete Mechanical is prepared for your water heater service in Mukilteo. We have the qualified staff, the tools, and the experience to make this essential operation go smoothly.
Water heater service involves giving your water heater a complete check-up to catch many common failures before they become an emergency repair. No check-up will completely negate the possibility of mechanical failure, but it can go a long way toward heading off common problems. A service check-up will include looking at or possibly replacing the anode rod, a device that attracts acidity in the heated water, diminishing the probability that it will munch on the lining of your water heater's tank. It will also include checking all safety devices, such as emergency blow-out plugs, pressure valves and over-flow pipes. Thermostats are also on the check list – making sure that they reflect the actual temperature of the heated water. The heating device will be under scrutiny as well – especially if your water is heated with gas. When gas is involved, the ignition device for the burner, and the delivery lines are part of your heater check-up. Other heating options include electricity, solar, biomass, or heat pumps – and each has its own idiosyncrasies.
Complete Mechanical is prepared for your water heater service in Mukilteo, and we can be reached at (206)337-2360. We do keep office hours, but we know that water heaters and other HVAC devices can develop problems at the worst sorts of times, so we can be reached after hours and on weekends for those emergency calls. In the long run, your comfort is our business, since HVAC stands for heating, ventilation and air conditioning – all of which deal with making the inside of your home or business comfortable for people and pets.

A man running the London Marathon for Headway East Northants managed to break a world record as well as raise money for the charity.
Thomas Bolton claimed the Guiness world record for the fastest marathon dressed as a car after completing the 26.2 mile course dressed as Del Boy's Robin Reliant from Only Fools And Horses.
He ran it in four hours and 55 minutes, and his record was one of 40 Guiness World Record titles broken at the event.
But as well as going for the world record, Thomas was also raising money for Headway East Northants.
The Irthlingborough-based charity provides support, services and information to individuals, family members and carers affected by an acquired brain injury.
Thomas said: "I am so pleased and relieved.
"I'd like to think Headway can somehow use it to their advantage." And he added: "Having a world record feels surreal.
"It's strange as well as I have nothing to aim for now - it's consumed me for the best part of two to three years so I've no excuses for not doing the ironing now!"
This year's event was the third time Thomas has taken part in the marathon for Headway East Northants, with his previous attire seeing him dressed as a mobile phone and the Tardis from Doctor Who.
Claire Phillips from Headway East Northants said: "We are very proud of Thomas and his Guinness Record.
"He was determined to achieve his goal and we were delighted to support him in his quest.
"It was fantastic to see him whizz past the cheering station on marathon day.
"He had a big smile on his face.
"We would like to sincerely thank Thomas and all of our runners for all the hard work they put into their training and for supporting our charity.
"Their fundraising enables us to continue, improve and develop the service we offer to local people who have sustained a brain injury.
"And we have a number of places available for next year's London Marathon."

De Blasio and first family will travel to Italy for summer vacation
Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York City's first family will travel to Italy later this month for a summer vacation.
Mayor Bill de Blasio and New York City's first family will travel to Italy later this month for a summer vacation.
The family will leave next Friday, July 18, staying for a little more than a week, returning to the city on Sunday, July 27, according to the mayor's office. It it the longest mayoral vacation in recent memory.
"Returning to Italy this summer will be a homecoming for our family," First Lady Chirlane McCray said in a statement. "It will be a moment to humbly express our gratitude to the family members and local residents who supported us and cheered us on over those long months."
The trip is their first family vacation since a visit to Niagara falls in 2012. They will visit Grassano, Sant'Agata de' Goti, Rome, Naples, Capri and Venice.
De Blasio's maternal grandmother, Anna Briganti, emigrated to America from Grassano in the early 1900s and his grandfather was born in Sant'Agata de' Goti. The family visited Sant'Agata de' Goti during an Italy trip in 2010, McCray wrote in a blog post.
McCray said the family received support "lots of encouragement" from Italy during the mayoral campaign, including letters and emails of support. Sant'Agata celebrated on election night, streaming de Blasio's victory from a movie theater.
But de Blasio's Italian heritage hasn't always benefited him. In one of his biggest faux pas early on, the mayor ate pizza with a fork on Staten Island, claiming that was the "typical" way in his "ancestral homeland."
De Blasio will hold some official events with representatives from the Italian government on the trip. While he is away, First Deputy Mayor Anthony Shorris will oversee day-to-day running of the city. De Blasio will also hold daily calls with senior officials during the trip and return to New York City if there is an emergency.

Herbert Leupin, Bata - Rock And Roll, 1961
If you're in Boston this weekend, or anytime for that matter, I encourage you to check out the International Poster Gallery located at 205 Newbury Street.
Donald Brun, Zwicky Naaizjde (sidewalk), 1950
The gallery has an amazing array of posters from around the globe. The extensive collection, over 10,000 pieces at the gallery, covers areas from film, travel, food and beverage, war and propoganda, vintage sports, auto and cycle posters and music, to name a few.
Adolfo Hohenstein, Monte Carlo (from Ricordi portfolio), 1914 ca.
The posters here are just a tiny fraction of the fun things you may find when you visit. If they don't have a poster you'd like to own, owner Jim Lapides will find it for you. What's great is that their pieces are priced from $100 all the way on up. I've always loved poster art and to see some of the work at the gallery is just break taking. I'm like a kid in a candy store, don't let me go in with any money or credit cards!

I hear the word bread line, and I see men and women waiting in line for something to eat. Inevitably, I see a woodcut by Fritz Eichenberg[1] that has become defining for my imagination. It is called Christ of the Bread Line and it shows Jesus waiting in line with others for something to eat.
"When was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink?" the righteous will ask, and you know his teaching about the judgment of the nations. Jesus reminds us that we don't have to look far to find him.[2] He stands in line for bread. He applies for food stamps. He who is the very bread of life, waits patiently with the poor until we know how to eat and how to share the bread of mercy with each other.
Bread is so beautiful because among many other things it contains our shared human need to eat as well as God's desire to give us all that is needful and more.
It's difficult for us to know and understand what is happening in Syria, but a few days ago there was a story from Aleppo.[3] Every morning, just before sunrise, some rebel fighters step away from the front lines in the city for another vital and urgent task: baking bread. Bread is a mainstay of the Syrian diet — it accompanies every meal — and the city has been paralyzed by over two weeks of war.
In war everything becomes a weapon, even bread. "The regime has tried to deprive our supporters of water and gas, and now they are using bread," said one militia member. But he said the rebels had learned how to fight back against the government's attempts to keep bread out of areas controlled by the opposition. "We took control of the wheat warehouses in Aleppo's suburbs," he said. "We have many of them, in several areas, and they might keep us supplied for weeks."
Some of you may have seen the footage of bakeries in Aleppo that have become opposition outposts, with long, loud bread lines snaking around corners. Abu Mohammed, a rebel baker in eastern Aleppo, said that skirmishes sometimes break out among customers, especially when there is not enough to go around. But his squad — seven to nine rebels baking and distributing bread — try to feed who they can and make sure no one gets preferential treatment, he said.
Bread is so beautiful because it contains the stories of our human hunger for food but also for freedom, our hunger for power but also for peace.
In bread all dimensions of human life come together. It contains the generosity of earth and sky, the blessings of sun and rain, the miracle of growth, the skill and toil of human labor; it contains the hunger of the poor and the appetites of the rich; it contains the poetry of our songs and the prose of our commodities markets; it contains our worries about tomorrow and the feast of the Lord's table. Bread contains what we do to each other and what we do with life. When we begin to receive Jesus like bread, we begin to see how in him all dimensions of human life are coming together in new ways, in redeeming ways, in ways that are healing and fulfilling. We receive the bread of heaven for the life of the world.
In 1983, in yet another armed conflict in our hurting world, Israeli troops pushed north into Lebanon. Members of a church in Beirut began to buy all the food they could – cans, boxes, bags, you name it. They were not sure if the troops would come all the way to Beirut or stop further south, but they wanted to be prepared.
Then the siege came. West Beirut was totally cut-off. No one could enter or leave. No food was allowed in. People ran out of bread. The bakeries ran out of flour.
At the church, they called a board meeting to decide how to distribute the food they had stockpiled. Two proposals were put on the table. The first was to distribute food to the church members, then other Christians, and if any was left to Muslim neighbors.
The second proposal was quite different. First food would be given to Muslim neighbors, then to other Christians, and finally – if there was any left over – to church members.
The meeting lasted six hours. It ended when a much-respected elder – a woman – stood up and said, "If we do not show the love of Christ in this place, who will?"
Her question ended the debate. They had the courage to follow the demands of love rather than fear. The second proposal was passed, and in the end there was enough for everyone in the neighborhood.[4]
Bread is so beautiful because it can be broken and shared, even across lines that appear to be carved in stone.
Now we've been in Aleppo and in Beirut, and I think it would be good for us to add a quick stop in New Jersey. Many years ago, Joey Ramone met Bruce Springsteen in Asbury Park, and he asked him to write a song for The Ramones. Don't worry if you don't know The Ramones; I want to talk a little about the song Springsteen wrote that night. It was a great song, but he didn't give it to Joey. He recorded it himself in 1980, and it became one of his best-known songs ever.
The opening lines sound incredibly cocky,
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride and I never went back
But then the tone changes dramatically, and the chorus hooks you,
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going
Everybody's got a hungry heart, everybody's got a hungry heart …
I love this song. I love to turn up the volume and sing along at the top of my voice, and I hope that before either Springsteen or I retire, I'll have the chance to sing it with him and a few thousand others. I love the song because I know the hunger that doesn't come from the stomach but from the heart. Everybody's got a hungry heart, and we tend to try and fill it with a lot of junk before we know what we really want or see what we need.
Bread and Roses is one of the great songs of the labor movement, and it has this beautiful line in it that sounds like a prayer:
Our lives shall not be sweated from birth until life closes; hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread, but give us roses.
Our hearts are hungry and they will starve unless they are nourished with beauty and truth and respect and forgiveness and hope. I still think that Isaiah said it best, finding words for the call of God's voice,
Ho, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and you that have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food. Incline your ear, and come to me; listen, so that you may live.[5]
"Come," the voice cries out, four times in this brief passage, and in Jesus, this urgent, loving word becomes flesh. "I am the bread of life," he tells us. "Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." He doesn't just sing Isaiah's lines, he embodies them.
The deepest human hunger can only be stilled by love, unsentimental and dependable love. And Jesus is the bread that stills that deepest hunger. He is the gift of God's unsentimental and dependable love. The only way to overcome a world hostile to the purposes of God is to love it – and there is nothing sentimental about that love, as even the most casual glance at the life of Jesus will show. God does not respond with hostility to a hostile world. God sent Jesus into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.[6]
This bread chapter, like much of the gospel of John, is colored by conflict and anguish. The words were written during a period of painful separation; followers of Jesus were trying to make sense of the fact that many of their fellow Jews did not share their belief in Jesus.
In v45 Jesus says, "Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to me." These words imply that those who do not come are unteachable or refusing to listen and learn. Perhaps such words did provide some comfort to those who struggled to understand why so few shared their belief; but to me they only sound like a hurtful insult. We must read and listen carefully, lest we turn bread into stones. Belief is not a simple matter of decision. Belief is not a simple matter. Period.
In v44 Jesus says, "No one can come to me unless drawn by the Father who sent me." Belief is not a simple matter of decision, but the process and outcome of being drawn by God, of being wooed and invited, perhaps even seduced by the fragrance of good bread. It's, "Come and see!" over and over again. "Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food."
The gift of Jesus isn't this or that or the other. It's not health, wealth, happiness, or truth. It isn't some thing. The gift of Jesus is he himself, because with him we find the fullness of life our hearts crave. He gives himself to us trusting that we would soon run a rebel bakery in the neighborhood, serving the bread of heaven for the life of the world. No more front lines. No more lines of suspicion and mistrust. Only one long, loud bread line circling around the table of Christ.

The Writer has a (too) brief interview with Kristin Landon, sci-fi author, in its January 2009 issue. This advice from Landon is something that has taken me years to learn and yet I still make the mistake. So here is it as (one of) my New Year's Resolution:
"Wedging yourself into a genre because it sells is the road to mediocrity; so if your heart isn't in it, don't write it. Find the issues that spark your passion and build your story around them. If this is really what you want–if you're telling your stories–then you've got a chance."
Happy New Year, everyone!

How do these thoughts apply to mobile learning? As Elena Lamberti, in an introductory essay to the 2011 version of The Gutenberg Galaxy acknowledged, It's true that McLuhan did anticipate future developments of knowledge and communication technology with uncanny precision. He didn't envision the production of the BlackBerry, iPod, or iPhone, however he imagined their technological effects and anticipated the environmental uncomfortable side effects of the digital and interactive technologies with which we now manage every day." Let's take a look at some of these negative effects maintaining mobile applied sciences in mind.

Speaking about 'unstable' we took an FJ Holden (my greatest mates fathers)for a spin alongside the Hume Highway (there were no Freeways again then).

A difficult bond
It's difficult for both of you to fully be yourselves in this relationship, because there is so much deep-rooted conflict between you two. Even when you had only just met, you felt the effects of old, unconscious wounds rearing their heads. You may feel as if you've come to this relationship for a reason -- that there must be some meaning in why you're going through such pain together.
You both have some painful deep-past issues that have come to the fore through your interaction. Transformation is needed. But your partner's evolution as an individual is in direct conflict with your own individuality, or your idea of who you are. Resentments can build up as criticisms lead to tiffs, tiffs erupt into arguments and then intensify into full-on, angry disagreements. You're two different people; that's unavoidable. But this particular relationship can't serve either of you as individuals unless you make the necessary changes. You may find that over time, you've begun to grate on one another's nerves; the smallest disappointments seem huge, the most minor infractions suddenly enormous. Everything is loaded with emotional baggage. Your lover, especially, makes demands on you regarding your behavior, even your feelings -- which can't and shouldn't be controlled by another person. This a very difficult aspect to work with, and it requires much patience and compromise on both your parts.

Every household has a kettle. Regardless of whether it is a plastic one or a metal one, the kettle is by far the most used appliance found in the kitchen. The regular use on a daily basis can leave it filled with limescale, and not very clean. This limescale can end up chipping off and flowing into your cup of tea or coffee, which is definitely not where it belongs. A build up of limescale in your body is definitely undesirable since it is not good for your health. It is therefore recommended that you clean and descale your kettle on a regular basis.
This article will give you an insight into all the different ways in which this can be done, including many little home remedies, hints and tips that you may never have heard of.
The most common way of descaling your kettle is by using descaling tablets that are sold widely in many different stores. You simply pop them into the kettle, add water according to the instructions and allow the water to boil. This very often does the trick, but you may find that the limescale either does not all disappear, or that it comes back very quickly. This is why many people prefer to use home remedies, some of which will be explained in this article.
The first home remedy involves making up a solution containing equal parts of water and white vinegar. Use this solution to fill the kettle up to the brim and allow it to penetrate and attack the limescale. Do not bring the solution to the boil since the solution will overflow and cause damage to your kettle. After an hour has passed, use a scrubber and give the inside of the kettle a good scrub. Rinse the kettle and you will find yourself staring at a kettle that looks as good as new. If your kettle has A LOT of limescale, you may be required to repeat the process a few more times, but eventually you will find that all the limescale has gone.
Another home remedy involves lemon. Simply cut your lemon into quarters and place them in the kettle. Fill the kettle with water as you would and bring to the boil multiple times. You can choose to use lemon juice as an alternative to pure lemons.
Cola products are not just delicious, but they are great limescale removers too. Simply fill your kettle with any cola product and bring it to the boil. Allow it to stand for half an hour and then rinse your kettle. You will honestly be surprised at the results.
The outside of the kettle is commonly neglected, since it is not affected by limescale. However, that does not mean that it does not get dirty. It is constantly exposed to dirty fingers and fat from cooking. If you have a plastic kettle, simply use some warm water and soap and use a soft cloth or sponge to wipe it clean. Do not use any bleach or harsh chemicals otherwise you will risk damaging the exterior surface of your kettle.
If you have a metal kettle, using soap and warm water will work like a charm. If you wish to add that special little shine to your metal kettle, finish it off by polishing it using a microfiber cloth. This will also remove any water marks and streaks.
The above methods are all very effective when it comes to cleaning kettles, so now you do not have an excuse not to clean yours!

Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me."
Anyone can follow Jesus: it's your choice to make. But Jesus said, "If you're going to follow me, there are some things you must do." First, He said, a believer must "deny himself" and give Him first priority. We must be willing to say to that part of us that always wants its way, "You cannot dominate here any longer." Next, a believer must "take up his cross daily and follow me." We're 2,000 years removed from the original context of this message. Today the cross is a symbol of Christianity, but in the first century the cross was a method of execution. The Romans executed people publicly in order to make an example of them, and crosses sometimes lined the roads outside Roman cities. So the cross was a hated thing for Jesus' audience. When He said you must take up your cross that was not a casual invitation. He was clearly inviting them to reorient the agenda of their lives around Him. And He wants us to live out that new agenda "daily." Being a Christ-follower is not about giving God an hour or so on the weekend. Being a Christ-follower is a daily set of choices. It's about saying, "Jesus, what does it look like to honor You at home, at work, at school, at the gym, with my time, with my resources?" Living with this Jesus-orientation will not limit your life; it will bring you more blessing, more hope than you ever could have imagined.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the privilege of being a part of Your family, Your Kingdom. Thank You for allowing Your people to play a part in Your purposes in the earth. I choose to follow You with all of my heart and all of my words and all of my decisions. Thank You for all the ways You have blessed me and given me hope for the future. In Jesus' name, amen.

Travis Walker, plea agreement – Taos District Court, Courtroom B, Judge Jeff McElroy
Walker, a 23-year-old Ranchos de Taos man, was sentenced to 314 days in prison this fall after accepting a plea agreement struck with the state.
The case originated in December 2017, when Walker allegedly kidnapped his former boss at gunpoint in the Ranchos de Taos area, forced the man into the trunk of a car and drove him around in search of cash and drugs.
Originally charged with five counts, Walker pleaded guilty to one count of attempt to commit a violent felony while the four other counts – aggravated battery, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and kidnapping – were dismissed.
In exchange, the state suspended an original prison sentence of approximately nine years, pending Walker's completion of just under a year in prison, followed by five years of parole.
If Walker had been convicted at trial, he faced a prison sentence of more than 20 years.

Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, Jany Leveille, Lucas Morton, Hujrah Wahhaj, Subhannah Wahhaj – U.S. District Court (Albuquerque), Río Grande Courtroom, Judge Kirtan Khalsa
A United States attorney in Albuquerque filed a motion this fall indicating that terrorism and kidnapping charges may be added to a federal firearms case filed against five adults arrested at a makeshift compound near Amalia in early August.
The case originated with child abuse charges filed in the Taos County court system. The five adults were charged with keeping 11 children, and a twelfth child, who was later found dead at the property, in squalid living conditions. The twelfth child suffered from seizures and was allegedly kidnapped by his father, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, from his mother's home in Georgia in November 2017.
Firearms, high quantities of ammunition, a shooting range and materials describing how to carry out a terrorist attack were also found at the compound, located a few miles south of the Colorado border.
Allegations of an alleged plot to train the children who lived at the compound to attack "government institutions," as detailed in a journal belonging to Leveille, were referenced in detention hearings later in the month. Records of foreign travel to Saudi Arabia and Morocco by another defendant, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, were also referenced by prosecutors. Charges related to terrorism, however, were never filed.
After Taos County prosecutors failed to hold preliminary hearings for the defendants in accordance with state deadlines, the abuse charges were dropped. The five were then arrested at the end of August on a federal complaint alleging they had provided Leveille, an undocumented Haitian immigrant, with firearms, and had aided her in crossing state lines, from Georgia to New Mexico, with the weapons.
The complaint also charged the five with conspiracy, a charge that prosecutor John C. Anderson described as "broad" in the recent motion. Anderson moved to delay a trial for the federal case, which had been set for Nov. 5, to allow both the government and the defendants time to prepare for new charges in the case. He said an ongoing federal investigation may soon bring federal charges of kidnapping and "providing material support to terrorists."
Defense counsel for all five defendants submitted a motion at the end of October that recommended language of "unnecessary and extraordinarily inflammatory and prejudicial allegations of terrorism and mistreatment of children" be struck from the case. They argued that such claims did not pertain to the charges filed and would unfairly bias a jury.
As for the possible terrorism charge, the defense attorneys argued that no connection has been drawn between their clients and any known terrorist group.
The defendants are currently detained, following a September finding by federal Judge Kirtan Khalsa that all five posed a danger to the community.

Adam Casados, case dismissal – Taos District Court, Courtroom B, Judge Jeff McElroy
The 8th Judicial District Attorney's Office dismissed a possession of a controlled substance charge and use or possession of drug paraphernalia charge filed against Casados after lab results came back negative for controlled substances.
Casados, 28, of Chamisal was arrested last March in a multi-agency drug bust.
His case was dismissed Nov. 19 when prosecutors learned of the negative test result.

Dec. 3
Carla Casias, order extending time – Taos District Court, courtroom not specified, Judge T. Glenn Ellington
Judge Ellington stipulated an order this month to allow defense counsel for Casias and co-defendant Isaac Martinez additional time to respond to a state's motion to admit cell phone evidence previously barred from an armed robbery case.
In 2013, a grand jury indicted Casias and Martinez on conspiracy to commit armed robbery and armed robbery after a gunman stole $110,000 in cash from an employee carrying a bank deposit in the parking lot of Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. Critical to the indictments was the presentation of cell phone records belonging to the defendants that allegedly indicated their plot to carry out the robbery.
The cases were later thrown out, however, after former Taos District Court Judge John Paternoster learned that the 8th Judicial District Attorney's Office had subpoenaed the cell phone records without the approval of a judge or grand jury. District Attorney Donald Gallegos and former prosecutor Emilio Chavez were reprimanded by the supreme court for the illegal issuance of the subpoenas.
The New Mexico Supreme Court in April reversed Paternoster's decision to dismiss the grand jury indictments, reopening the case.
Since then, defense counsel for both Casias and Martinez has moved to suppress the cell phone evidence due to the unlawful subpoenas issued in 2013.
The Taos district attorney submitted a 17-page motion to reintroduce the records as the cases move forward. While it acknowledges that the records were "seized unlawfully," it notes that they "would have been seized independently and lawfully in due course under New Mexico's inevitable discovery rule ..."
On Monday (Dec. 3), Judge Ellington granted the defense until Jan. 15, 2019 to file its response to the state's motion.

John Rael, plea conference – Taos District Court, Courtroom B, Judge Jeff McElroy
Rael, a former coach with the Questa School District, accepted a plea agreement this week in a case that had charged him with raping a 14-year-old girl in 2016.
The former Rio Rancho resident pleaded no contest to two counts of an eight-count indictment, including bribery of a witness, a third-degree felony, and false imprisonment, a fourth-degree felony. The other six counts, which included two counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor in the first degree, were dismissed.
For more on this case, refer to our December 4 coverage and our past coverage.
Dec. 4
James Brown, motion to continue – Taos District Court, Courtroom A, Judge Sarah Backus
A child sexual abuse case scheduled to go to trial this week against Brown, 43, of Peñasco has been postponed.
The trial was delayed after Judge Backus approved a motion for a continuance from the 8th Judicial District Attorney's Office. In the motion, state prosecutor John Lovelace noted that a forensic scientist set to testify at trial would be unavailable this week.
The trial was to determine whether Brown began a sexual relationship with the juvenile in March 2016.
Brown was arrested on Oct. 3, 2017 on 12 counts, including three counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor in the first degree, three in the second degree, three in the third degree and three in the fourth degree.
The Río Arriba County Sheriff's Office initiated the investigation into the alleged abuse, but later requested that New Mexico State Police take charge of the case.
Evidence obtained during the investigation allegedly indicates that Brown had sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl "at least (30) different times since March 2016," according to a press release from state police.
For more on this case, refer to our past coverage.

Viola Quintana, plea conference – Taos District Court, Courtroom B, Judge Jeff McElroy
Quintana, a 73-year-old Peñasco woman, is set to appear for a plea conference related to a trafficking controlled substances case filed against her in March.
The 73-year-old was among several individuals arrested during a multi-agency drug arrest this year.
A criminal complaint filed in the case alleges Quintana was repackaging hydrocodone, a prescribed opioid-based painkiller, for resale. She was charged with one count of drug trafficking, a second-degree felony.
Details of a plea agreement proposed in her case were not known as of press time.

There's always plenty going on, isn't there? If you're like me, it seem to all gel together into some sort of jumble by the end of a week's time. Someone will ask, "How was your week?" and I've already forgotten.
In the last week there has been a theme: Running! I haven't been running in my running shoes as much, but just always running! Running out the door, running out of time, running out of food, out of patience, out of money, out of ideas. And yet, never running out of things to do! Never running out of self. Perhaps the other kinds of running wouldn't be so bothersome if I was a little more empty of self.
Let's see. A few things stick out from the last 7 days…
First of all, Andrew is almost clear across the country this week visiting with friends. It's was a great opportunity for him and I didn't even let my mom-type worries get in the way. He flew out with Jon on Saturday to Chicago; Jon continued on to Kentucky from there while Andrew stays with dear friends for the week. Because the first flight was delayed, Jon didn't have time to clear security with Andrew and meet up with our friends. The transfer was made safely in the end, but there were some nervous feeling from here! I'm thankful for this experience for Andrew. He talks all happy and brave on the phone; I probably won't know if he misses home until he returns.
Also, I've been watching Jack's big toe closely since Jon pulled out the longest, thickest splinter ever. It was more like a small plank impaled straight into the ball of the toe. We don't quickly run to urgent care around here: Jon sterilized some pliers and a metal blade in the flame of his torch and did a little surgery. Jack was brave as always, and his toe looks like its going to fair out just fine as the redness and swelling subside.
I had a slew of appointments last week. After one doctor's visit, I drove over to the lab for some blood work while Jon was home with the kids. The parking was full and I was driving Jon's F-150. I entered the parking area only to discover the last space was way too small, so I had to back out since the parking lot was like a dead end. I flung my arm over the passenger headrest and looked out the rear window, then proceeded confidently in reverse. Then CRUNCH! An elderly couple in their Lexus backed out of their parking space just as I was passing through. Gah. These sorts of things really get to me. They make me feel costly in time and trouble. Jon is great though; he takes me and my expenses all in stride.
Friday night we hosted a little evening/meeting time for the youth leaders of our church. It was such fun, partly because the group is just so special, and partly because it's so nice to have people over and converse with adults. (Can you tell I feel like I'm living in a very small and difficult world right now?!) My food turned out fine, relationships were deepened, and plans for the future were made. I feel so thankful to be in the loop on things, especially as my older kids are now (or will soon be) the recipients of their ministry.
Saturday night Olivia was at a youth event, and afterwards her friend spent the night with us. Again, I was so blessed. The girls and I chatted in the kitchen till we were all tired, laughing and goofing off. I felt so privileged that my teenage daughter and her friend wanted to hang out with me!
Today I had only three kids with me for most of the day: Olivia, Michael and Jack. We are nearly done all our course work for the year, so we packed up after I dropped the other two kids off at the charter school and went to the beach. Olivia had an online class late in the morning, so she set up her things in the car overlooking the ocean. Not a bad way to do school. I am considering new options and praying about the next school year. The only sure thing is that we are transitioning, but I'm not sure how it will all play out. It will be some sort of "hybrid schooling" in which I dip into all sorts of new options and try to maintain flexibility and a custom education. We shall see…
But for today, this was our classroom and I liked it very much!

Health insurance provider Aetna creating 225 Fresno jobs
FRESNO, Calif. — Aetna's footprint in Fresno is about to get bigger by 225 new employees, with the company planning to grow by the end of 2017.
The hiring activity will increase the company's current Fresno employee base of approximately 770, making Aetna one of the largest private employers in the city.
The new jobs will support the company's service operations for its commercial and Medicare members and will include call agents, customer service and appeals representatives.
Aetna currently leases 122,640 square feet in a building located at 1385 Shaw Ave., and will invest in in facility upgrades, new equipment and furniture to accommodate the new hires.
"We are excited about our growth in Fresno. We look forward to continuing to be a strong corporate citizen and employer of choice in this community," said Linda Machado, head of service operations in Fresno. "Adding new jobs will positively contribute to the area economy as well as our company's service operations, so it's a win-win situation."
The company's expansion in Fresno will be supported by an incentive package recently awarded by California Competes, which includes state tax incentives.
"We are thrilled that Aetna will soon add 225 new jobs to their Fresno office over the next few years," said Mayor Ashley Swearengin. "It's been a pleasure to work with the company during the expansion process, which we believe highlights the positive, business friendly environment that Fresno strives to foster with employers."
Aetna is one of the nation's leading diversified health care benefits companies, serving an estimated 46.5 million people with information and resources to help them make better informed decisions about their health care.

As noted in our prior post, too many companies end up with disparate silos of information. Spreadsheets and Word documents and CRM data and accounting records all spread out across separate applications, often unable to talk to one another, or to be accessed by all. As we noted earlier, it doesn't have to be that way.
That's why when today's buyer looks at upgrading their in-house systems, they make sure that the ERP system contains the functionality they need to incorporate good customer relationship management – from quote to cash. The best systems will now integrate with your office productivity suite (especially if it's based on Excel and Word, but other options exist as well for the non-Microsoftie world.)
The point is, if your system is more than 5 years old, there's a lot of new functionality out there. Functionality that can save you TONS of time and money. Functionality that helps you manage better… track the life cycle of an opportunity from opening to close… and make sure it's all (or at least, mostly) integrated with your overall business management system.
When used properly, the right CRM system, integrated properly, unifies all of the data about a client, project or opportunity into a single database, available to everyone in the organization, at any time. It's a better way to manage tasks, appointments, results, promises, interactions… and all the activities that comprise your business relationships – with both clients, and prospective clients.
Best of all, it's there forever. I can't tell you how often we've found it useful to track interactions with long 'dead' prospects, or clients, who have recently sprung back to life. There's value in knowing who the players were back then… who said what to whom… where the objections arose… and what the stumbling blocks were to closing the old deal, in order to improve our odds today.
The same can be true for managing projects. Many different users, often ones not physically in the office, need access to a centralized database. The tools exist today, and the links into ERP are many and useful. It all depends on your plans and priorities.
Professional firms today face stiff competition, cost pressures, and changing markets and circumstances. And because their product is often an intangible (like knowledge or expertise), they must leverage Customer Relationship Management to ensure accurate delivery of quotes, estimates, deliverables and promises – and make sure these are in line with customer expectations and your own terms. There are a lot of moving parts to manage, and when the sales cycle is long, you need all the tools that modern technology has to offer.

Heading up to Loch. The Boxing Day visit. A Tradition.
Loch is problematic for me. It is Beths family Hobby Farm and for quite a while now I have felt like a very annoying Third Wheel. Perhaps it truly could be said that I really do a splendid version of an 'Annoying Third Wheel'…
However, I really felt the need to be with my family for the next few days.
Somewhat daunted, I climbed in the car, coaxing Daisy along the hiway without screaming fits (a win). As it is often the case with these things my fears were unfounded. I was made to feel very welcome.
At Loch there were old boats to be examined, a Tree House to renovate, books to consume, devine food to lust for, and… the serenity. Ah, the serenity.

The DVD insert says: "A new visitor comes to Planet Sagar… Blackstar's Earth girlfriend Lieutenant Katana who has followed his photon vapor trail through the black hole and to his new home. Unfortunately, the Overlord has plans for Katana and her multi-dimensional spaceship. And when the villain finally gets both halves of the Powerstar sword… chaos ensues!"
This episode would have made a terrific season ender. Blackstar does some tricks with the Starsword he had never done before (and never does again), Overlord finally manages to get ahold of the Starsword and with the Powersword form the PowerStar briefly, and Katana leaves Sagar vowing to return with a fleet of ships and free John. That would have been a great cliffhanger to see if she returned in Season 2 like she promised. (She probably got courtmartialed for disobeying a commanding officer though. lol!) It's odd that it was broadcast in the middle of the season where such important events were rather lost.
The "Alien Demon" toys that came with each villain figure appear in this episode.
