Local doctor pens 17 songs in new CD

Listening to the newly released CD by Klamath Falls rheumatologist Clay McCord, M.D., takes one on a journey back in time — to the golden era of the ballad in the '60s and '70s.
McCord, a local physician at Sky Lakes Rheumatology Clinic, covers a wealth of genres, from rock to country western, on this CD, too. But its strength is a blend of vocals, keyboard and instruments that unify the pieces. It is not that the vocals or one instrument stands out, but they meld into a unified group of relaxing, easy listening music.
All the songs are original, written by McCord, a musician of 38 years. He's been practicing medicine since 1976.
"The concept behind this new release was to produce a sound similar to the band I had in high school, featuring trumpet, bass, keyboard and drums. Of course that was the foundation for a much richer and elaborate concert-style sound," he writes on his website.
"There also was an emphasis on creating not just a variety of genres, but of sound and accompaniment, as if to give the illusion that several different recording studios were involved in the process.
"His first album was released in May 2013. It, too had all original songs.
This one, entitled, "Return of the Ballad II: New Horizons" was mixed in a studio in Las Vegas.McCord sings and plays most of the instruments; his wife, Lisa, is the backup vocalist and the mixing and some percussion is by Joshua Connolly.
"What is different from the previous one is that this CD is more complex, with more variety of genres, and more sophisticated orchestrations," he said. "What inspired me is to be creative over the course of our long winters here; giving me some time to write."
"Though CD albums are not as popular as decades ago, everyone has a car stereo at least. Many of these are high-quality and merit high quality music. Why listen to oldies of the 60s, 70s, and 80s when you can find original music of even better quality recording that will take you there?" he asks.
As you listen, you will find that the voice does not necessarily stand out above the accompaniment.
"This is because the music will never be about myself, but rather about the content and the sound," McCord said. "I have suggested to many that we need to make music a bigger part of our lives, just as we did in those decades. Only music is capable of touching the heart abstractly — even more than art, if we are lucky enough to allow it."
He will be entering this year's Britt Festival of Rising Stars competition in Jacksonville and the Table Rock City auditions.
The 66-minute CD is available from McCord. One may call him at 541-880-2754. Or you can order it online at CDBaby.com. It retails for $17. You also can sample the songs at his website.

As many of you know, Pete has had Pro Seller status with Zazzle, the business partner for our online store, Your Shop of Shops, for several years. Recently we've noticed that Zazzle has made a big leap in the external marketing efforts by expanding into different channels. In Minneapolis, we've heard radio spots for Zazzle, for example. Or, if you've ever purchased anything from a Zazzle store, you may have recently noticed smarter email communications from the company that are more customer-centric. If you've had other business partner relationships, you may find it as amazing as we do that Zazzle helps sellers with marketing in all these different ways at no cost!
One of the best ways Zazzle helps sellers is by prominently featuring their designs on the Zazzle home page and other landing pages within the Zazzle site. With thousands of sellers competing for the customer's attention, an individual Zazzle store can be lost in all this activity. When Zazzle selects your design as one of "Today's Best" your product gets center stage prominence out of the thousands of products that are created every day.
This morning we received notification that one of Pete's iPhone case designs (available for Android, too), Vibrant Pink and Purple Floral Bells, is going to be featured as a "Today's Best" design within the next few days. He's been busy adding hundreds of new designs in the iShoppe in our store in the past several weeks.
There are several new iPhone case styles that have just been added. As well, new Android cases for the Samsung Galaxy and other phones are available. Pete anticipates with all the Christmas cellphone gifting there will be folks who will want new cases. It's true, whenever you get a new phone, you need a new case. Sometimes you just want to change out your existing case for an update. When I got my new iPhone 5, I ordered the Pastel Liquid Dots iPhone case because I liked the three dimensional effect of the design. Pete ordered a new iPhone case with a skull design.
Currently, we have over 15,000 total phone cases available in our Zazzle store – 15 different phone case styles. This means if you're looking for an iPhone case, you'll find it rendered in over 1000 different graphic designs. When Pete adds a design, he makes sure it is available for as many different phones and styles of cases as possible, using the same techniques he shares in the "More Products, Less Time" e-book.
As we've mentioned before, working with Zazzle helped us reach our goal to diversify income and become location independent. Whether your goal is to supplement or replace traditional income, or express your creative gifts via attractive products for sale, or maybe a little bit of both, Zazzle is a quick and easy way to see results. Pete's Quick Start e-book can help you have your very own Zazzle store up and running in a couple of hours! With all the new ways Zazzle helps sellers, now is an even better time to get started!

Electronic signatures – the future for Lasting Powers of Attorney?
In a world where technology and online communications are ever increasing, could electronic signatures on Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs) be a thing of the future? If so, what are the pitfalls of signing such a legal document electronically?
In their 2014 consultation paper entitled 'Transforming the Services of the Office of the Public Guardian: Enabling Digital by Default', the Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) confirmed their ambitions to make LPAs fully digital. Nearly three years on, they are already making progress with partially digital LPA forms available online to be completed, printed off and then signed with wet ink. In the next phase of their development and after much consultation with the public, they hope to remove the need for a wet-ink signature and to enable an LPA to be signed electronically, simplifying the registration process and allowing the OPG to process an ever growing number of LPAs more efficiently.
Electronic signatures can come in many forms including: -
- Typewritten
- Scanned
- An electronic representation of a handwritten signature
- A unique representation of characters
- A digital representation of characters i.e. fingerprint or retina scan
- A signature created by cryptographic means
To ensure that an electronic signature has the same level of certainty and authenticity as a handwritten signature, they must be unique to the signatory, created using means within a signatory's sole control and they must be capable of being directly linked to that relevant document so that any later changes to that document will be detectable.
When renting a property, you can already use electronic signatures, namely electronic representations of a handwritten signature. Whilst speeding up the process, the electronic signatures do not resemble our own wet-ink signatures. So what is the validity of such an agreement if ever challenged?
If LPAs are to become fully digital as proposed by the OPG, what are the potential pitfalls of signing such a significant document electronically?
During the course of the OPG's consultation, respondents have highlighted the following major concerns: -
- Certainty – A handwritten signature can confirm the identity of an individual signatory, particularly when compared to a specimen signature, and offers added reassurance that the right person is signing and that the signature is authentic. By implementing less unique forms of signing i.e. typewritten signatures, it provides less certainty as to whether the person signing is the person they claim to be. This could also open up the potential for fraudsters to impersonate another for financial gain, particularly where they are close to that person and have an intimate knowledge of the details needed to complete an LPA for that person.
- Registration – whilst the OPG may be willing to accept electronic signatures as a valid form of signing, other organisations may not. When using the LPA on behalf of the donor, banks, building societies and third party organisations may reject the LPA if it is not signed using a handwritten signature, particularly when comparing to a specimen signature as a way of verifying a person's identity.
- Witnesses – the OPG suggests removing the need for a witness with the function instead being fulfilled by a secure online ID assurance. Without the need for a witness, it puts already vulnerable individuals in a position where they could be abused by dishonest family members or fraudsters.
- Deterrent – a fully digital LPA may also act as a deterrent for those who would most benefit i.e. the elderly, individuals with learning difficulties. Consequently the number of LPAs could drop and could leave many individuals who have lost mental capacity without the support they need both financially and emotionally.
Despite their plans to go fully digital, the OPG has confirmed that paper copies of the form will still be available to print off and sign using a wet-ink signature, and there are no plans to remove this option in the future. If in doubt, take legal advice and print the form, signing as you normally would.
The OPG continues to consult with members of the public, legal professionals, charity organisations and members of the judiciary, exploring ways of making fully digital LPAs a reality without compromising on the certainty and security that the current LPA registration process affords. Further guidance will be published once discussions have concluded and further proposals are put forward.

Natural Alliance
Kurdish Herald Vol. 1 Issue 2, June 2009 -
by Hayder al-Khoei
"When Shia rebels in Samawa fought against the British, the great Kurdish leader Sheikh Mahmoud Barzanji sent his troops to the south to fight alongside the Shia."
It was one of the most famous attacks against the British after the end of World War I. 200 Kurdish rebels joined forces with 400 Arab Shia rebels, led by Sheikh Hadi al-Makdoor, and attacked a British post in southern Iraq just before dawn. It was a surprise attack and the rebels overran the British barracks and killed over 300 enemy soldiers while capturing more than 100 British-Indians. This particular Shia-Kurdish attack against the British was immortalised by a famous Arab who shouted after the battle in poetic prose "Two-thirds of paradise is for our Hadi, and one-third is for kaka Ahmad and his Kurds!"

The strong political and military alliance between the Shia and Kurds goes back to the early 20th Century, when both groups were marginalized by the occupying British forces. In April 1920, after the League of Nations granted Britain a mandate over Iraq, mass demonstrations spread across the country. When Shia rebels in Samawa fought against the British, the great Kurdish leader Sheikh Mahmoud Barzanji sent his troops to the south to fight alongside the Shia.
When discussing Shia-Kurdish relations, one has to always bear in mind that the Kurds are an ethnic group and the Shia, a religious sect, and indeed, while the majority of Kurds are Sunni, there is a significant Shi'a Kurdish minority. However, the Shia Kurds integrate into Kurdish society more so than Shia Arabs do into Arab society (with its heavily Sunni majority), because the latter place much more emphasis on religion than ethnicity. A Shia Arab in Saudi Arabia, for example, will always be marked as a Shia first. The Kurds in Syria, Turkey, Iran and Iraq make comparatively less of a distinction between themselves regardless of religion or sect, or even borders drawn up by the British.
After Gertrude Bell advised the British to add the Ottoman Vilayet (or superprovince comprised of a number of local areas) of Mosul to the newly created state of Iraq, the Kurds were effectively made homeless. The oil-rich region of Kurdistan was key to protecting British interests in the region. The Shia on the other hand, who constitute a majority of the Iraqi people, were forced to live under the rule of the Hijazi Prince Faisal, who later became King of Iraq. Bell, of course, knew the Sunni Arabs were only a minority in Iraq, but she viewed the Shia as extremists and a government formed by them would be, to quote her, "the very devil". Some positions in the newly established Kingdom did go to the Shia, but it was mainly the Sunni Arab elite who effectively controlled Iraq until the recent US-led invasion in 2003. Between the founding of the Kingdom and the US-led invasion in 2003, many coups and counter-coups took place and the government in Baghdad was changed several times however it was always the minority ruling over the majority. The Kurds, like the Shi'a, remained more or less disenfranchised within the Iraqi political structure.
Another factor which facilitates the Shia-Kurdish alliance is the effect of Sufism on the Kurdish culture. Many Kurds, including their current political leaders, PUK Secretary General and Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, of the Qadiri order, and KDP and Kurdistan Region President Masoud Barzani, of the Naqshabandi order, have Sufi backgrounds and this makes them naturally more tolerant of the Shia, especially due to the special status given to Prophet Mohammed's cousin and son-in-law, Ali ibn Abi Talib.
After repeated negotiations and skirmishes, with still with no homeland to call their own, the Kurds, led by Mulla Mustafa Barzani, declared war in 1961 against Abdul Karim Qassim, the military leader who overthrew Iraq's monarchy and established the Republic three years earlier.
"In 1965, Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Mohsin al-Hakim issued a fatwa that made it strictly forbidden for the Shia to fight the Kurds... The religious decrees were copied and distributed all over Iraq in various street corners and buildings."
After yet another military coup in Baghdad, Abdul-salam Arif became the new President in 1963. He stepped up the war effort in Kurdistan and, in the mid-60's, a particularly bloody campaign followed, leading to thousands of deaths from both sides. Although many of the officers in the Iraqi army were Sunni Arab from Mosul, the majority of soldiers were Shia, and they could be influenced by the marja'iya – the undisputed spiritual leaders of Iraq's Shia – in Najaf. In 1965, Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Mohsin al-Hakim issued a fatwa that made it strictly forbidden for the Shia to fight the Kurds. Ayatollah Abul-Qasim al-Khoei and other Shia scholars who had the authority to issue fatwas also did so. The religious decrees were copied and distributed all over Iraq in various street corners and buildings. The result was that many of the Shia soldiers in the army deliberately aimed above or below their Kurdish targets to pretend they were obeying orders from Baghdad but, at the same time, following their spiritual leaders in Najaf.
Two decades later, during the Iraq-Iran war, the Shia and Kurds again fought side-by-side against a common enemy. In 1986, the Badr Brigade and Pershmerga carried out numerous joint operations along the Iraq-Iran border. In 1991, following Saddam's explusion from Kuwait, it was the joint effort of the Shia and Kurdish rebels that almost unseated the Ba'ath Party. However, their revolt failed as the cease-fire negotiations between Iraq and the US banned Saddam from using fixed-wing aircraft, which effectively gave Saddam permission to use helicopter gunships against the rebels. Soon the rebellion was brutally suppressed and hundreds of thousands were massacred.
The Shia-Kurdish alliance became stronger as the years went by as Iraq's various opposition groups worked on and off with one another toward regime change in their homeland, and after the fall of Saddam in 2003 it was a Kurdish-Shia political alliance that formed the basis of the Iraq's government after democratic elections.
The Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (now re-styled the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq) was the most-powerful Shia body at the time, and they share the Kurds' ambitions for a Federal Republic which gives Kurds and the Shia a measure of legally-sanctioned self-rule over autonomous oil-rich regions in the north and south respectively.
The future does not seem to be so bright now as the Shia themselves are split between those who still want strong local governments in the south (Hakim) and others who prefer a strong central government in Baghdad (Maliki). Moqtada al-Sadr, another major Shia player, is not so clear-cut on this issue. He is generally considered to be opposed to federalism, though he has hinted support for self-governing regions if the US forces leave Iraq. At the same time, many Shia are now asking why the Kurds, who already have their own parliament in three majority Kurdish provinces in northern Iraq, can control ministries and a large bloc of the national parliament in Baghdad. They see it as Iraq's own 'West-Lothian Question'.
Regardless of what stances the Shia now take, one thing is for certain – despite tensions, the strong historic relations between the Shia and Kurds will not be damaged beyond repair. Far too much blood has been shed for and with each other in their common struggle for freedom against tyranny.
Hayder al-Khoei is a public relations assistant at the Al-Khoei Foundation, a charity organization set up by his grandfather Ayatollah Abul-Qasim al-Khoei. He is also currently pursuing a degree in Politics and International Relations.

The Middle Eastern art of roasting various types of flavoured meats over an open fire using skewers encapsulates the very spiritual heart of the origins of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs as a Royal Guild of Goose Roasters, but whose authority later gradually expanded to the roasting of all poultry, meat and game.
In Singapore, there exists a Persian-themed restaurant called Shiraz which specializes in this and it became the inspiration of a meat roasters' dinner with a Middle Eastern theme, complete with belly dancing entertainment.
Eighty members and guests – casually attired according to the pre-determined dress code – partook of the following menu and wines:
Louis Roederer Brut Premier Champagne
First course
Wine: 2008 Macon Verzé by Leflaive
- Feta cheese salad with olives, basil and tomatoes
- A delightful sampling of hummus, kufteh (lamb meat balls), kashk-e bademjan (aubergine spread) and borani esfanaj (yoghurt and spinach dip)
- Tender calf's tongue and feet using Chef's special Iranian recipe
Main Course
Wine: 2001 La Fleur de Bouard, AC Lalande de Pomerol
Kubideh – char-grilled tender minced lamb and whole tomato on a skewer
Lari chicken kebab – boneless chicken marinated with yoghurt, skewered and grilled
Shandiz lamb chop – succulent marinated lamb chops
Barreh lamb kebab – loin of lamb cut into cubes skewered and grilled
Shah kebab – marinated filet mignon skewered and grilled to perfection
Succulently grilled quail
Rice – fluffy basmati Rice with saffron, baghala polo (Persian dill and lima bean Basmati rice and zereshk polo (barberry, pistachio and almond rice)
Served with : Armagnac Castarède Hors d'Age / XO - 20 ans d'âge
Persian Ice cream - saffron and pistachio flavour
The fires and the food were hot, but so was the entertainment, especially after the wines gyrated the mental faculties in rhythm with the staccato hip and belly movements of the whirling enchantress.
It was a great night for one and all as we toasted the culinary origins of the Chaîne.
David S.W. Jen, Chargé de Presse
Here is a gallery of selected images from the reception and the dinner . . .

Full Baseball Postseason Awards and Honors
LakePoint, Ga. - Coming off one of the most impressive seasons in program history, Stetson's two-way star Brooks Wilson garnered ASUN Conference Baseball Player of the Year honor. His teammate, star pitcher Logan Gilbert made history, becoming the first player to repeat as ASUN Pitcher of the Year. FGCU's Gage Morey earned Defensive Player of the Year accolades, while freshman Christian Proffitt became FGCU's second-consecutive Freshman of the Year, the league announced at its annual awards banquet on Tuesday night.
Wilson, a senior captain for the Hatters in 2018, has been an extraordinary two-way star for Stetson this season, helping the Hatters win the regular season title and earn the No. 1 seed in the ASUN Championship. The designated hitter and closer for Stetson was excellent at the plate hitting .285 on the year with three homers and 24 runs batted in. Nineteen of those RBI came in conference play, while he finished the season with a .444 slugging percentage. On the mound, Wilson showed his dominance from the very beginning of the year, racking up a career-high and ASUN single-season record 19 saves this season. That mark leads the nation heading into the postseason. He has pitched 51.0 innings and struck out 64 batters while holding a 1.79 ERA for the Hatters. He is nominated for both the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year and the NCBWA Stopper of the Year award, in addition to being a finalist in the Senior CLASS Award running.
Stetson's Gilbert turned in one of the most dominant seasons a starting pitcher has ever had at Stetson. The junior righty earned several preseason All-American honors and backed it up during the 2018 regular season. He struck out a new program single-season record 134 batters, while only allowing 20 walks. He posted a 12.97 K/9 ratio and finished with a 2.76 ERA. Gilbert registered double-digit strikeouts in nine of 13 starts this season. He posted a 9-1 record on the year and gave up just 30 runs in 93.0 innings pitched during the regular season. He is only 16 strikeouts away from reaching 300 for his career, and he becomes the first ASUN pitcher in history to win back-to-back ASUN Pitcher of the Year honors. Gilbert is a semifinalist for the Golden Spikes award and is expected to be a high first-round draft pick in the upcoming MLB Draft.
FGCU's Gage Morey becomes the program's first-ever ASUN Defensive Player of the Year as the senior outfielder had a brilliant season in the field. Morey played in 49 games for the Eagles and recorded a .991 fielding percentage while patrolling the outfield. He only committed one error in 116 total chances this season. Morey had five outfield assists on the season and picked up 110 putouts for FGCU. At the plate, Morey hit .296 with 11 of his 54 hits being doubles. Morey ranked ninth in the ASUN in total runs with 37 this season.
The Eagles collected another superlative honor as Christian Proffitt earned ASUN Freshman of the Year accolades. It marks the second-consecutive season the award has gone to FGCU after Richie Garcia took home the honor last season. Proffit played in 50 games during his freshman campaign in Fort Myers and hit .284 overall for FGCU. In conference play, that average rose to .290 and his OBP climbed to .405 against league opposition. Proffitt finished the season with 25 RBI and 20 runs scored. He also played excellent defense at shortstop for FGCU where he posted a .961 fielding percentage in ASUN play.
Stetson Head Coach Steve Trimper picks up his first ASUN Coach of the Year award after guiding the Hatters to the regular season title and a national ranking. Stetson enters the postseason with a 41-11 mark, 15-3 in ASUN play. The Hatters own a top-10 RPI ranking and have been nationally ranked in several polls. This week, Stetson checks at No. 13 in the D1Baseball.com poll, while sitting at No. 17 in the NCBWA national poll. Trimper, who is in his second season as head coach in DeLand, Fla. has put together one of the top pitching staffs in the country, led by the ASUN Pitcher of the Year in Logan Gilbert. Stetson featured signature wins this season against No. 14 Florida State and No. 24 UCF.

Paul reminds Titus that since people were saved "not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy" and justified by God's grace, they should live a life of good works toward all men.
Paul's instructs the Corinthians that his perspective on the Gospel ministry includes the idea that the ministry is an opportunity to display the glory of God.
One of Paul's principal achievements was that he wrote thirteen books of the New Testament, which are a primary source of theological information
According to the textbook, Paul asserts in 1 Thessalonians that because of the promise of the rapture, believers will not suffer the wrath of the Day of the Lord.
According to the textbook, Paul teaches in 2 Thessalonians that the rapture will precede the removal of the "restrainer," the revealing of the Antichrist, the time of tribulation, and the final Day of the Lord.
In 1 Timothy Paul identified two acts of heresy: forbidding marriage and abstinence from food.
In Romans Paul shows that all are accountable and no one can be justified by his own good works, with or without the law.
According to the textbook, to keep him from exalting himself, God gave him a thorn in the flesh.
In Philemon, Paul pleads with Philemon to take Onesimus back and forgive him for both the crimes of stealing and running away because "you owe me over and above your very soul."
Paul's hope in Philippians was to offer practical encouragements to his friends at Philippi so they would not be tempted to doubt God's faithfulness even in dire circumstances.
In 2 Corinthians Paul told the church that the Macedonians were giving a contribution for the work of the ministry. Thus, their contribution was appreciated but not needed.
According to Paul in Romans, justification was provided by Christ's substitutionary death on the cross as a satisfaction for man's sin for all who come to Christ in faith.
In the Corinthian church some believed in Christ's resurrection but not in the resurrection of believers.
According to the textbook, Galatians can be termed the Magna Carta of Christian liberty. It states unequivocally that salvation is through faith alone, in Christ alone, by grace alone, without works of any kind.
The Roman church consisted of both Jews and Gentiles, but the majority were Jews.
Epistles are the most common literary form in the New Testament. They are "occasional" letters; that is, they were designed to deal with specific situations.
In Ephesian, Paul pictures believers as being "in Christ." This is a special relationship with God because they are perfect in Christ.
The problems addressed in First Corinthians arose when various groups sided with different leaders who best represented their view of Christianity.
According to Paul in Galatians, the law locked imprisoned us, but provided no remedy. Only faith in Christ can atone for sin and free us from the law's condemnation.
According to Paul in Galatians, Christ redeemed us by becoming a _________ for us when He hung on the cross.
__________ is a short and extremely practical book that is focused primarily on church ministry and, secondarily, on Christian discipleship.
In order to demonstrate the self-sacrifice and humility of Jesus, Paul boasted in his weakness rather than his strength in 2 Corinthians.

Grange Contests
Located in the Ware Building Annex
The Grange is a fraternal organization which encourages families to band together to promote
economic and political well-being of the community and agriculture. Its roots go back to just after the Civil War when President Andrew Johnson commission Oliver Kelly to travel to the South and to collect data to improve Southern agricultural conditions.
The Grange has been in the State of Vermont from almost the beginning and claims a membership today of approximately 1500 members. Because of the decrease in the number of farms and farming families, Grange members now devote most of their time to serving the community in a multitude of ways.
When designing your exhibit, keep in mind:
- You have 30 seconds to attract someone's attention
- You have another 30 seconds to keep their attention
- Therefore, your exhibit should be colorful and attractive but simple and uncluttered
- Judging of the exhibit will be based on how well it does these three things.
- Set-up is Friday, August 25th, in the Ware Building from 10:00am to noon.
- Exhibits will be taken down on Monday, September 4th, between 8:00 and 10:00am
- Each Community Grange will be asked for volunteers to cover shifts throughout Fair week.
For more information, please call Brenda Rousselle.

"What Our Grange Does Best"
- Tables will, again, be 4" X 4"; one table per Grange.
- You can use the table top and front for your exhibit.
- You can also put up stand-up backing on your table to post exhibits. The exhibit can include a potted flower arrangement. Each exhibiting Grange will receive $25.00.
- First, Second and Third Place ribbons will be awarded.
- Bring a banner with your Grange name but do not put it on your display. They will be displayed after judging.

The pattern of markers can determine whether an individual is susceptible to developing a specific form of cancer, and may also predict the progression of the disease, helping to suggest the best treatment for a given individual. For example, two patients with the same form of cancer may have different outcomes and react differently to the same treatment due to a different genetic profile. While several markers are already known to be associated with certain cancers, there are many more to be discovered, as cancer is highly heterogeneous.

Red Dead Redemption 2: three hours with the most anticipated game of the year
- Posted on: October 10, 2018
- By: Keza MacDonald
- With: 0 Comments
Rockstar Games' upcoming wild west adventure is a step forward for virtual world realism – and a reminder that cowboys, too, had to face up to modernity
Left to my own devices with Red Dead Redemption 2 for a few hours, I was expecting to see sweeping open plains interrupted by mesas, dusty frontier towns with swing-door saloons and wary inhabitants, and a gang of crusty outlaws sharing stories around a campfire then riding through the woods on their way to a shootout. This astounding virtual wild west models itself on the classic Hollywood image of that time, the same fantasy as depicted in Westworld. What I wasn't expecting in my brief preview was a city, Saint Denis, modelled on turn-of-the-century New Orleans.
Riding into town as an outlaw frontiersman, I suddenly felt like a tragic anachronism. A tram rolled past, and I tied up my horse to board the next one

Keep Your Helmet On – Safety Bike Riding
Research has shown that wearing a helmet significantly reduces the chance of serious injuries when it comes to outdoor activities. That little device on your head that you always complain about it being heavy and uncomfortable could save your life one day.
How a helmet function is simple: It absorbs all the forces in the event of an accident, so your head is kept intact. Moreover, the helmet is made of outer protection with 3 main parts: the shell, liner, and interior. With this design, the force could be dispersed evenly across the helmet, efficiently reducing the chance of injury.
There are so many good bike helmet brands on the market that you'll be drowned with the choice. Moreover, the technology has improved so much, that helmet has evolved from protecting your head to providing a lot of comfort to your rides, such as air ventilation, debris protection, and wireless Bluetooth connection.
It is estimated that 75% 85% of the bike-related injury won't happen if the helmet is there. Sadly, many people still do not understand the importance of wearing a helmet, citing little reasons for not using one such as follows:
Helmets Are Ugly
Well, you will not look attractive after an accident, I am quite sure of that. It's worth noting that there are severe efforts from helmet manufacturer to make it look as lovely as possible. However, the main idea of the helmet is to keep you safe, and design should not come first when it comes to purchasing a helmet.
Also, the accident could strike when you least expect it. Even when working with simple tools such as drill press or angle grinder, there are documented cases of serious accidents. A motorcycle or a bike ride is a highly dangerous activity; therefore, use of a helmet is mandatory.
The Helmet Makes You Uncomfortable
This point has some merits. The helmet could be very heavy on your head, and sometimes make you feel very uncomfortable. Therefore, you should invest in a good quality helmet with lightweight material and proper ventilation. With that, you'll love to put on your helmet when you ride, as you could barely feel it.
Nobody I Know Wears a Helmet
You should be the pioneer to convince them to try on the helmet. It is for everyone's benefits! If nobody does it before, it doesn't mean wearing a helmet is a bad thing. You have research to back you up for wearing a helmet: It saves your life. Period!
If anyone comes to you asking why you should wear a helmet, blown them away with these arguments:
Helmet Prevent Serious Head Injury
Your head is your life. The helmet protects your head, so your experience depends on the helmet in case of an accident.
A lot of things happen on the road. Sometimes, a car hit you merely because the driver does not see you in the first place. Having a helmet with reflective strip help, you become more visible to the drivers.
Protection From The Weather
When you ride, the weather might not be your friend. Rains and intense sun could do severe damage to your body, especially on a more extended road trip. Having a comfortable helmet helps you to preserve your energy and improve you last longer on the road.
So wearing a helmet is essential when you go for a motorcycle ride. It helps prevent you from serious injuries. Remember, the accident could come any time, so you'd better prepared, than feel sorry. Always wear a helmet!

This blog was published on Relus.com
A blog post about five reasons employers should hire tennis players recently grabbed my attention and thoughts. While I agree (and like to hire athletes in general), I feel the qualities possessed by a competitive swimmer are even greater. So, given the choice, hire both. But, if you can only hire one – pick the swimmer!
- Swimmers have better work ethic. Obviously genetics plays a significant part in success in competitive swimming, but nearly every college-level swimmer became great at the sport by outworking the hundreds of other kids in the pool. A great tennis player had to work hard, but being naturally gifted is a more important component. In swimming more than any other sport, sheer will and determination outweigh skill. Hire a swimmer if you want someone who will give 100% every single day. In tennis, I will agree that you have to practice hitting a ball into a court thousands of times. But the determination of a swimmer who can log 10,000 painful yards in one day alone is unmatched. That's who I want to hire.
- Swimmers understand what it takes to win. In tennis you can blame your racket, bad line calls, or an off day of playing. On the other hand, in swimming, every single lap of every single practice is measured. Swimmers are used to getting measured and judged based on their performance. You never hear a swimmer blame the judges or tools such as their goggles. As a swimmer, it is you against the clock. In business, I want employees who are unafraid of being measured, and who know that they control their own destiny. Swimmers know that they succeed or fail based on how hard they have worked – how much effort they put into every single practice.
- Swimmers have goals based on their own efforts. In tennis, most goals are based on beating someone else. You have no control over how the other player performs. Swimmers have goals that are detailed, under their own control and down to the hundredth of a second. I love employees that are goal-oriented – and you won't find a more goal-oriented person than a swimmer.

These past few weeks, I've often felt like eating cereal and muesli. I'm not sure why this is, because I rarely eat that kinds of foodstuff. Perhaps it's because my housemates often have cereal in the cupboards and eat it for breakfast or as a snack, or maybe I've seen too many ads on television – who knows?
The fact of the matter is, however, that if you eat mainly sugar-free and are paying attention to the amount of added sugar in your food, buying cereal in a supermarket is close to impossible. I've taken strolls down the cereal aisle many a time, and few if any of the cereals I've seen have less than 15g of sugar per 100g serving, which basically adds up to almost 2 teaspoons of sugar per portion (the boxes recommend 40g servings, but who really respects those, huh?).
I quickly realised that, to satisfy my cereal craving, I'd have to make my own. I hence decided to make my own granola, cutting out the unnecessary sugars found in honey and dried fruit. Inspired by I Quit Sugar's recipe for Coco-nutty granola, I made my own sugar-free homemade coconut and mixed nut granola, using, well, no sweetener. I decided to eat it in Greek yoghurt, which I eat without sugar anyway and adds a good source of protein to any breakfast or snack.
The result? Delicious – exotic coconut, crunchy oats, chia seeds and nuts, all mixing beautifully with the rich, greek yoghurt. I am totally bowled over by this recipe and will be keeping freshly-made granola in my cupboard from now on!
PS. I'm alright with the no-sugar version, especially with the sweet cinnamon and coconut, but you can add a sweetener, to taste, if you wish: rice malt syrup would be my choice, but honey would work just as well.
5 servings
1 1/2 cups of rolled oats
1 cup of roughly chopped nuts (I used brazil nuts, hazelnuts and almonds)
1 cup of desiccated coconut
3 tablespoons of coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon of chia seeds
1 tsp of cinnamon
1. Preheat oven to 130°.
2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
3. Cover a baking tray with baking parchment. Put the granola mix on the baking sheet and spread the mixture out evenly.
4. Cook for 20 minutes in the oven, turning mixture halfway through cooking time so it cooks evenly.
5. Take out of the oven and let cool. This granola can be eaten as soon as it has cooled or be kept for up to two weeks in the cupboard.
6. Enjoy!

To me, the question is not when those who voted for Trump will realize that he is inimical to American values, but why they have not shouted to the proverbial rooftops during his first year as president. The signs are there. The actions are evidence. The global worry is everywhere. The foundations of what is right are being eroded, and the world will suffer.
I know, I know you think I'm a liberal, a Democrat, a Trump hater, choose any label you want, but that is not accurate. I have supported Republican causes as I have argued Democrat causes. I always look for the greater good, the common-person advantage and the value added to our citizenry and our Democracy.
I think the executive powers of the Presidency must be re-evaluated given the actions of all presidents, past, and present, who have used the presidential script to alter the law, the norm and the will of the people. The power of the presidential pen should not be able to disrupt, to deport, to disenfranchise, to demand a billion/trillion dollar wasteful wall, to input tariffs without congressional approval, or even, via Twitter, to call individuals with derogatory names.
But to the big issue facing America. Let's lay the influence responsibility where it belongs. If Russia has interfered or influenced our last presidential election then whose fault is that? It is OURS. It is yours. It is mine. We Americans have abdicated their civic responsibility to be informed for we are a lazy lot, and it's time we changed it.
It is the responsibility of every citizen to check the accuracy of what he or she learns and then believes. It's not hard to do. A few clicks here and a different source there, and enough information can be ascertained to make a fair judgment. IF YOU WATCH JUST ONE NETWORK – YOU ARE NOT INFORMED. IF YOU READ ONE NEWSPAPER, YOU ARE NOT INFORMED. IF YOU JUST DON'T CARE. YOU ARE THE PART OF THE CAUSE.
If you want the 2018 mid-terms to be fair, to be accurate, to be the collective will of an informed people, then read widely, watch widely and listen widely and then participate. That factor alone will screw any Russian or clandestine attempt to influence our votes with fake information.

Today we decided to have a local trip out to try and ride on a required First Potteries double decker or two. It was half term from college and I was working monrnings. Matthew got up at 10:30 and toast and orange juice for breakfast. He also had some crab paste sandwiches just after 12:00. I arrived home at around 12:45 and having seen what buses were going to be working the 13:00 from Blurton (43876) and the 13:15 from Blurton (60196) up to Newcastle, I decided we could do required First Potteries 43876. We set off just before 13:00 and walked all the way to the stop on Magdalen Road to wait for the bus. As we waited for the bus we saw Wardle Transport 2963 on the PLumline and JayJays Travel RX57 POV parked up. A minute or so late we saw as expected required First Potteries 43876 round the corner.

From experience, bad code is often born out of the desire for instant gratification. Instead of writing a couple of extra lines of code and being more intentional with how we structure our code, we just love copy and pasting solutions on the internet to reach our goal.
Why? Because it is easier, quicker and more convenient.
This post is aimed mostly towards new developers. Developers who are new to the game are mostly focused on just making things work. While not inherently bad, without guidance, new developers can quickly develop bad habits that will set them back in the long run.
This post aimed at opening the eyes of developers by pointing out common code smells. Also common actions and habits of that usually result in bad code. Before the desire to see some visible results degenerates into bad coding habits.
To those that are interested, prepare to feel the sting!
Ask your co-workers the following questions
Read this piece of code. After you finish reading,
- Can you tell me what it does?
- Did you find the code easy to follow?
Bad code creates confusion. Good code is self-explanatory.
Every heard of the acronym DRY? It stands for Don't Repeat Yourself and it is almost exactly what it means. If a piece of logic is repeated at least once, it is generally a good idea to place that code inside a function for reuse.
Of course, this is just a generalization and there is more to DRY than just extracting duplicate actions. But it is a great and most importantly, simple way to start chipping away at the habit of writing duplicate code.
In The Pragmatic Programmer, we have the famous quote on DRY
Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.
In essence, this rule states that we should divide our code into clear parts, where each part is responsible for a specific role. As humans, we are bad at managing complexity.
Keeping duplications to a minimum allows us to better manage complexity, especially as the software grows in size. I know DRY is a way more complex topic at that, but for starters, removing duplicate code and making sure that you place common operations in its own separate function is a start.
Below are two major reasons why people copy and paste code.
Although it may seem harmless, guess what copying and pasting from your own code base violates? My eyes are getting a little DRY here.
Importing a feature that you need from the internet is not always bad. We do it with libraries all the time. By using libraries, we don't always have to reinvent the wheel.
However, this practice becomes harmful when you copy and paste without understanding or attempting to understand what the code is doing behind the scenes.
Using code written by somebody else without understanding how it works is the same as using a hammer without knowing what it is built for.
Much like submitting a plagiarized article for your high school assignment, you will gain nothing from just simply copying and pasting a solution from stack overflow. Remember, you are not coding simply to build something. With each project, aim to grow from it.
Do you ever catch yourself writing code with the same focus and state of mind as though you talk about how your breakfast tasted?
Once you have gained some confidence, it becomes natural to write certain code without thinking. If you write
console.log() or std::cout 10,000 times, it is often natural for your brain to shut down while writing those lines.
Coding absentmindedly is like drunk driving or speaking without thinking. Programmers are problem solvers. Therefore, absent-minded problem solving, unless solving something very simple, will naturally result in imperfect solutions. When working on larger projects, something "small" as absent-minded coding can cost you dearly.
One of the tendencies of beginning developers is to be ecstatic when they come up with a solution. That is not a bad thing. I remember the euphoria that I felt when I wrote my first sorting algorithm. Little did I know at that time, that the algorithm written by me was already invented and had a Big O of O(n ^ 2). In other words, bubble sort.
In programming, there are more than one ways to solve the problem. If you have a shallow understanding of the problem domain, it is only natural for you to be able to come up with shallow solutions. That is okay.
What is not okay, however, is to settle for that shallow solution.
If the performance is/has the potential to be a problem in the future, every programmer should seek to find answers to the problem.
What are some problems with this solution? What can I do to overcome this problem while preseving its functionality?
Okay, that was an exaggeration. However, providing vague, verbose names to your variables is the same as naming them a,b,c,d if not worse.Coding is writing your thoughts down for computers to run and developers to read.Click To Tweet
If you were drawing up a floor plan of your house, will you label the kitchen and living room A and B?
When you work in a team, your code should serve to accurately inform the next developer on how a particular problem was solved. Verbose, confusing and undescriptive names act as hindrances and will leave readers frustrated.
// TODO: Refactor and separate parse and show
function parseDataAndShow(data) {
// some logic here
// 1 month later ...
// Why did I need to separate this again??
I believe every developer is/has been guilty of leaving a comment that involves doing something LATER at one point in their career. Including myself. When you write comments like this, how many times has this TODO sat in the code base for more than a month, unattended?
Procrastination is the bane of productivity.
If that TODO is left unattended for a whole month, it is highly likely that all the background information or courses of action would be long forgotten. Unless the background information and unique details were well documented.
One of the traits of good code is that it is self-documenting. In other words, the code itself E.g. the variable names, method names, clear logic, etc. clearly explains to the developer what is going on. In contrast, bad code is littered with unnecessary comments. Something like the following
Comments in code should exist to explain things that code cannot. Click To Tweet
* Add and return the sum of
* num1 and num 2
function sum(num1, num2) {
return num1 + num2;
For example, history. Good comments can be used to log the background history, events or user-requirement changes that resulted in a particular piece of code being refactored in a certain way.
Another tell-tale sign of bad code is if your code is so confusing that you need comments to explain what your code does.
If this is the case, do not delay in refactoring. Otherwise, it will come back to bite you in the butt.
Spaghetti code is twisted and tangled, much like spaghetti. It jumps all over the place. Ever tried to straighten out each piece of noodle? Debugging spaghetti code is like straightening out all those noodles. Absolutely frustrating.
In order to avoid spaghetti code, write functions and classes that are responsible for one thing. In other words, they should only have a single reason to change. The following function
function handleResponseAndErrorAndDisplay() {
// logic for three different and separatable actions here
should most likely be refactored. Having three different actions intertwined together creates some nasty, unnecessary dependencies in the future.
Spaghetti code is a problem because the flow of logic is difficult to follow. Code that reads like code will eventually cause problems in the future when you have to update, debug that piece of code.
Avoid WET (write every twice) code. Keep the code DRY.
If you have any suggestions on bad code and how to identify bad code, feel free to leave a comment. I will add it to the list.
For a more in-depth read on code quality, I recommend checking out my post on a critical analysis of both bad and good code,. Mind you that the article is fairly lengthy.
Hope you enjoyed the read and happy coding guys!
I am a programmer currently living in Seoul, South Korea. I created this blog as an outlet to express what I know / have been learning in text form for retaining knowledge and also to hopefully help the wider community. I am passionate about data structures and algorithms. The back-end and databases is where my heart is at.

Millions are being pumped in to promote security reform, peace and democracy in the Gambia. Workshops and conferences are being organised. After five years the nation and the world will take stock whether the democratic dividend has been invested in the real transformation of the Gambian citizen into an awakened and tolerant sovereign person who will be capable of making informed choice to promote the National interest rather than a person with a self-centred interest who would use sectionalist and divisive politics to promote personal ends.
The world is watching and at the end of the transition they would indicate how much they gave and to what use the goodwill of the world had been put.
It should be a matter of national integrity and pride to display instruments, institutions and democratic culture at the end of the transition that would earn the admiration of all friends of the Gambia. Any development to the contrary would be a shame too grave to endure.

Sermons in China are improving
"Thank God for he is so good!"
That's the opening line of an email from the registrar for our Bible institute.
A new course in sermon writing
Among the 50 courses our online institute offers Christian leaders in China are instruction on sermon preparation and delivery. Last fall we began offering another level of sermon writing instruction.
Our registrar writes, "Our professors opened our new "Preaching based on the Church Year" course last September. We now have 15 students who had never preached publicly who are preaching in their churches and fellowships. They are so thankful for being taught how to prepare Bible-based sermons that follow the events of the church year. I have seen such a joy from these students as they have studied with our pastors!"
An opportunity for prayer
Our registrar adds, "Since our students took this course, they have been praying even more sincerely that our dear Lord gives them additional opportunities to spread the sweet gospel to many crying souls."
Please add your prayers to the prayers of our students. In your prayers, include our Bible institute professors and the many Christian leaders in China our institute can assist. Now would be a good time to make those requests of Jesus!

Excursions 2018
Here we are at Alexandra Palace in London for our first trade exhibition of the year. 'Excursions' is always one of the busiest and this year was no exception, where during some periods we had customers queuing to speak to our fantastic sales team. This year we were heavily promoting our exclusive Day Trip entertainments breaks 'St George's Day Celebration', 'Blue Birds and Bugle Boys', 'Sixties Summer Sensations', 'Celebrating the Carpenters' and our most popular Christmas lunch event which this year is themed as 'Christmas on Broadway'. Some of our contracting team, Mark, Katharine and Jenny also attended to meet our fellow suppliers so they could source new ideas to incorporate into future day trips and tours.

Pervasive, Decentralized Information for the Lookaside Buffer
Andrea Ilari
Many system administrators would agree that, had it not been for write-ahead logging, the understanding of model checking might never have occurred. In fact, few mathematicians would disagree with the study of robots [13]. In this position paper we disconfirm that the acclaimed constant-time algorithm for the theoretical unification of the memory bus and redundancy by Suzuki is in Co-NP.
Ok, ok... it's a fake!!! It was produced from this site: SCIgen - An Automatic CS Paper Generator
Go and try it... it's incredible!!!

Dyed-in-the-wool Discovery fans will recall the famous stunt back in 1989 when a Discovery 1 towed a large train, to show off the then-new 200Tdi diesel engine.
You might be forgiven for thinking the new 2.0-litre diesel Ingenium engines offered in the Discovery Sport would never be up to the job.
But compare the figures…
200Tdi: 111bhp / 195lb ft @ 1800rpm
TD4 Ingenium (180 PS version): 178bhp / 317lb ft @ 1750rpm
Perhaps its no surprise then that this TD4 Disco Sport just revs a little and then gently pulls away, settling into a steady 8mph at only 1400rpm with all 108 tonnes of train (equivalent to about 60 Discovery Sports) rolling behind.
All Terrain Progress Control then takes over the throttle and braking, leaving the driver with nothing to do as the train crosses an 85ft high bridge.
The train attaches to a standard retractable tow-hitch, the only modifications being extra wheels to enable it to run on rails.
'Towing is in Land Rover's DNA, and Discovery Sport is no exception,' said Karl Richards, Lead Engineer for Stability Control Systems at Jaguar Land Rover. 'I've spent most of my career travelling to the most punishing parts of the world to test Land Rovers in grueling conditions, yet this is the most extreme towing test I've ever done.'
It's an impressive feat, with some lovely imagery. Take a look at the video here…

Biography Overview
Mike Moran started his legal career as an award-winning Assistant State Attorney at the State Attorney's Office in Jacksonville where Mike was a prosecutor from 1996 to 2001. In 2000, he won the 10th Annual Jury Trial Award at the State Attorney's Office by trying 24 solo felony jury trials in one calendar year with a conviction rate of almost 100%. In 2001, he left the State Attorney's Office to practice personal injury law and to use his courtroom trial experience to fight for justice for personal injury and wrongful death clients.
Since 2001, Mr. Moran has specialized in personal injury and wrongful death cases, including auto negligence cases, tractor-trailer negligence cases, motorcycle accident cases, premises liability negligence cases, negligent security cases, product liability and medical malpractice cases.
Mr. Moran has achieved numerous jury verdicts as the lead trial attorney with multiple million dollar verdicts, and Mike was the lead attorney for the largest personal injury verdict in the history of Baker County, Florida, a $9.4 million verdict.
Mr. Moran is a Florida Bar Board Certified Civil Trial Attorney, an honor and distinction which is attained by less than 2% of all attorneys practicing in the State of Florida. This certification is the highest level of recognition by the Florida Bar in the area of Civil Trial Litigation.
Mr. Moran is rated "AV-Preeminent" by Martindale-Hubbell, a peer review attorney evaluation service which is the oldest attorney rating service in the United States. An "AV-Preeminent" designation is the highest available and is "a testament to the fact that a lawyer's peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence."
Mr. Moran is happily married to his wife, Judy, and they have two sons. When Mike is not in the courtroom fighting for justice for his clients, he spends his time with his family and coaching his sons in youth travel baseball.
