Play 'Jonah' at the Aquarium
This special week welcomes a 45-foot inflatable humpback whale into the Aquarium's central Newman's Own Hall.
"Guests can stand next to the whale to get a real sense of its size," said Tom Frankie, the Aquarium's exhibits manager. "Have your phone ready too, because it's a great selfie – you and a whale!"
Guests can even play Jonah and go inside the whale to see the scale of its internal organs, including its lungs, heart and stomachs. (Yes, stomachs, plural. Most baleen whales have three stomach compartments.)
The inflatable whale was created by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary and is modeled after Salt, one of the most famous humpback whales found off New England. First seen in the mid-1970s, Salt got her name from researchers because of the unique sprinkling of white coloration on her dorsal fin. She has been studied more than any other individual whale.
Also during "Celebrate Whales" Jan. 16-24, bonus educational stations will let Maritime Aquarium guests touch real baleen, experience first-hand how blubber keeps whales warm, and learn why whale populations still haven't fully recovered from historic whaling practices.
The inflatable whale and educational activities during "Celebrate Whales" support the special exhibit "Animals Without Passports" open now through Jan. 2, 2017, in the Aquarium's IMAX® Theater lobby. Also created by NOAA's Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary, "Animals Without Passports" features Salt in explaining why humpbacks migrate between Cape Cod and the Caribbean, and the dangers they face en route.
The two exhibits, and bonus Aquarium activities Jan. 16-24, are all free with Aquarium admission.
There's one more way to see life-sized humpback whales at The Maritime Aquarium: in the IMAX® movie "Humpback Whales," which offers amazing scenes of these beloved creatures on the Aquarium's six-story screen. The film, playing daily through May 26, lets audiences join scientists studying how the whales communicate, sing, play, feed and care for their young. Show times are 11 a.m. and 2 & 4 p.m. daily. (Note: no shows Jan. 31.)

I've been in Wiesbaden a number of times over the past several years on short vacations visiting in-laws, so when I was there this August after visiting Adeptus in Münster I decided it was high time I put forward an article for the ICB travel section. Especially since some of you may have heard of Wiesbaden recently with the Irish soccer team playing Georgia in the neighbouring city of Mainz.
Wiesbaden is a Spa town, or rather a city, with a population of over 300,000 people. Wiesbaden is the capital of the federal state of Hesse. The city sits on the northern banks of the River Rhine 30km west of Frankfurt International Airport and is in the heart of the Rheingau (Rhine district) which is famous for Rhinegau wines. Wiesbaden is a very nice place to visit if you are in the Frankfurt area or if you want a good base from which to explore the Rheingau valley that stretches from Wiesbaden to the town of Rüdesheim. The city of Wiesbaden has been famous for its thermal springs and spas since Roman times so if you are a bit worse for wear from too much beer or wine then you will have plenty of options for rest and recuperation.
Places to visit for good Beer:
Wiesbaden is no mecca for beer by any means but a fair selection of German beers can be had if you go to the right places and most of the bars and restaurants in the city will serve pils and wiessbier of some description.
The König von Bayern Ratskeller under the City hall in the Schloßplatz (palace square) in the center of Wiesbaden is a great place for a good selection of beer from the König Ludwig range and good food from the Bavarian region.
Among the beers available here are;
- König Ludwig Dunkel
- König Ludwig Weissbier
- König Ludwig Weissbier Dunkel
- Kaltenberg Ritterbock
- Kaltenberg Hellssbier
- Kaltenberg Pils
My personal favourite among these is the König Ludwig Dunkel. It's an easy drinking dark beer ideal for a few pints on a summer afternoon or a session in the evening. If you do get to the Ratskeller in Wiesbaden, or you can get it elsewhere, you must try the Kaltenberg Ritterbock. This is a strong dark bock beer weighing in at 9% with a syrupy rich roasted taste like treacle.
The Ratskeller is only accessible via a separate side entrance to the city hall and during the summer months they have tables and chairs outside in the Schloßplatz where you can enjoy a beer and food in the sun too. The Schloßplatz is also host to a farmers' market which has a nice busy atmosphere on a Saturday.
Another place worth a stop is Beck's am Bäckerbrunnen. This is a small bar in the Altstadt (old town) on Grabenstrasse beside the Bakers fountain. The Altstadt is mostly pedestrianised and is made up of narrow cobbled streets with shops, bars and restaurants. This popular bar is dark and cosy inside and also has nice tables and chairs outside around the Bakers fountain. The bar has a small selection of beer with a large menu of typical German pub grub. Among the beers available are Diebals Alt and Gaffel Kölsch. The Kölsch is a pretty standard pale, crisp beer with a light hop finish while the Diebals Alt is a light brown colour with malty, roasty and caramel flavours.
Venturing further, about twenty minutes walk from the town centre is Neroberg. The Neroberg is a hillside estate which overlooks the whole of Wiesbaden. This area is a popular place to come and get a good view of the city, explore the woodlands, test yourself on the forest climbing course or go to the open-air baths. Neroberg is reached by boarding a funicular railway at the base of the hill which is at the top of the Nerotal park. The railway takes only five minutes to climb the hill and runs along side the small Nerotal Vineyard.
The Neroberg Tower
The Neroberg Tower is part of the cafe on the edge of the woods on the top of Neroburg hills. Most of the cafe is outside with a large seating area beside an open-air amphitheatre and the Neroberg temple. This unlikely location for good beer actually has a fairly decent range available. I've been here a good few times and very nice if the weather's good. Among the beers available here are the following:
- Henninger Radler
- Binding Römer Pilsener
- Schöfferhofer Hefe-Weizen
- Schöfferhofer Kristall-Weizen
- Schöfferhofer Grapefruit
- Clausthaler Extra Herb
- Jever lime
You'll notice from this list that the Schöfferhofer brand is a recurring theme. Well it's no coincidence either that Römer Pilsener or the Clausthaler Extra Herb are on the same list too, as they are all made by the Binding brewery based in Frankfurt and all the beers on the list are owned by the Radeberger Gruppe. Binding beers are fairly common in the region and the brewery sponsors some of the stalls at the summer festivals in Wiesbaden and in the small towns along the Rhine. The Schöfferhofer Grapefruit is a new one for me and I tried it for the first time this year. I have to say I was surprised how nice it was. It's a mix of hefe-weizen and grapefruit juice giving a rather refreshing shandy style drink with 2% ABV. The Germans are very fond of their 'mix' style drinks, there's the ever popular weizen and cola and a myriad of other mixes available in the supermarket shelves.
Here ends my review I leave the rest for you to explore.
Don't worry if you don't speak any German as Wiesbaden has a large US Army base so most of the population are used to English speakers, and bars and restaurants usually have english menus if you ask for one.
If you or your significant other is interested in shopping then Wiesbaden has plenty to offer on that front too. The shopping zone is fully pedestrianised and consists of all the usual high street shops and German Department stores. For more up market tastes Wilhelmstrasse has a lot of expensive designer boutiques.

We had registered a S Corp in NJ in 2008 with my husband and I as partners/employees and were running payroll and paying taxes for the past 5 years. In August 2013 we moved our business/residence to Delaware and registered as S Corp Foreign business. Since then we are paying Delaware Payroll taxes and submitting Quarterly/Annual Forms. Our Payroll company stopped submitting Quarterly Forms to NJ state since August 2013 after submitting first two quarters to NJ. Our Accountant asked me to send the Advance Tax payments to NJ state as planned which we did pay. Do we need to submit our Quarterly/Annual forms to NJ state for 3rd & 4th Qtr of 2013? If yes then do we need to continue submitting in future though there is no payroll from NJ?

Along with the new Demon Hunter info, Diablo III's PvP Arena debuted at this year's Blizzcon. There's an info page about it on Blizzard's site, and eight screenshots as well.
I was able to spend some time playing it this morning at the show, and have a few comments to add to the basic info Blizzard has revealed. We'll have more later this weekend, after we get some more battle time in the Arena.
The Arena, as presented at Blizzcon this year, is very much an arcade game. You join in two teams of three players, you each pick your class from the three available characters (Wizard, Witch Doctor, and Barbarian; no Monk or Demon Hunter options), give them a name, and you're launched into the arena. One team is blue, one team is red, marked by circles under their feet, and you start on opposite ends of the roundish arena, with various obstacles and posts in the way. There are a few spots where health orbs can spawn, but most of the fights were over so quickly that orbs were hardly grabbed and didn't make much difference when they were.
In the final game you'll presumably have more choice of skills, arena maps, equipment, and characters. The version at Blizzcon is just the start of the system, and it was meant to be a fun, arcade-style battle for fans to try out, without necessarily telling us that much about how the feature will be presented in the final game.
Click through for more first hand details from my first play time session.
The play sessions are very quick and brutal. There's not much room for strategy, especially when everyone's fairly new to the game. The characters are all pre-made; when you pick a wizard, male or female, you get the exact same build, equipment, skills, skill runes, etc. It's like an arcade fighter, where everyone has the same tools to pick from and only the tactics differ.
The games are very fast and chaotic. You get a single fall, and when your character dies, you're done for the battle. You stay dead until everyone else on your team (or the other team) dies, and then all six of you start a new round at once. In the fifteen minute battle, the final score in my game was something like 14-5, which gives you an idea how quickly it goes. While dead you can look over your menus; I spent the time looking at my skill hovers, equipment, skills, etc. You can follow the action if you want; clicking on the screen moves your "camera" so you can follow the action as the remaining contestants battle it out.
Once you pick your class, you're stuck with them for the duration. My team soon wished that was not so, since our group of two wizards and a witch doctor were getting destroyed by a barbarian and two wizards. Player skill seemed to have something to do with it; the Witch Doctor on my squad was clearly very new to the game and spent several rounds standing in a corner, throwing firebombs at a wall. This wasn't an especially effective tactic, surprisingly. The barbarian was much better than our witch doctor though, since he was a tank and kept chasing our wizards around, while the other side's wizards were able to hurl Meteors and keep up a constant death beam of Disintegrate non-stop.
The character equipment was all plain stuff. Nothing on my wizard was even magical; it was just low level "white" plate mail type stuff. Nothing to boost my stats at all, and the weapon was a plain staff as well. I don't know if the Barbarian had a magical weapon, but I doubt it. The skills were preset, and all had runestones as well; all of the damage spells were socketed to lower their Arcane Power cost, while my Diamond Skin defensive skill had a rune to increase the damage absorption from 100 to 150.
All the characters had about 850 hit points to start with. You saw your own and everyone else's hit points displayed over their heads when they were taking damage. There were no healing potions or ways to regain health other than from the occasionally spawning health orbs.
The Wizard skills available:
Spectral Blades on the left click. This was not wise to use, since at melee range a Barbarian would destroy you, and other Wizards didn't hold still at close range.
Disintegrate on the right click. The attack of choice. Long range, straight beam cooking laser attack with a slightly slowing/zapping effect. Negligible Arcane Power cost, so it could be used non-stop. The only danger was standing
Meteor on the #1 key. This works like it does in D2. Click a spot and a flaming rock falls down a moment later. Huge damage, around 220-250, and leaves an AoE burn zone.
Hydra on the #2 key. This works like it did in D2, but the graphics are totally redone. The default Hydra is three-headed, purple, and slightly translucent, like an Arcane serpent. They work like minions, you can only have 2 of them at once; if you cast a third the first one vanishes. They did around 40 damage per shot.
Teleport on the #3 key. It works faster than you'd think from the screenshots; moving to another location is virtually instantaneous, as it was in D2. There was a 6 second cool down between uses, so it was best used as an emergency escape.
Slow Time on the #4 key. This huge bubble of slow was very useful against enemies. It would block off entire pathways, and if used well, ideally stuck right on top of a Barbarian or Witch Doctor, they would get slaughtered by other attackers before they could get clear.
Diamond Skin on the #5 key. This was basically a new version of Stone Skin. It changed the Wizard's appearance to a sort of protective shell, allowing her to absorb 150 damage. The duration was quite short, something like 8 seconds, and it had a long cool down between casts, like 20 seconds. Like teleport, best used when you were in imminent danger.
We'l have more on the PvP later this weekend, after I get some more play time. I need to try out the WD and Barbarian, to see how the compare; especially since I'd already played the Wizard in the PvM game demo, though entirely different skills were available to the much lower level PvM character than in the PvP.

It's crunch time!
No, that's not a cruel rallying cry to double down on your waning New Year's resolutions. You're beautiful and fierce and no one cares how many crunches you did today.
Instead, we're here to remind your fabulous selves that the deadline for CAMP programming proposals is this Friday. We need some savvy, passionate women to step up and take charge of organizing panels for our 2018 CAMP retreat Oct. 12-14 at the Mount Hood Oregon Resort in Welches, Oregon. Submit your idea here.
And, trust me, you want to be at CAMP, this year. Nestled in the forests near Mount Hood, the location is phenomenal, even by our decadent standards.
Now, I know you've seen several prompts over the last several weeks to submit session ideas for CAMP. And maybe one or two ideas for great panels or training sessions rose to mind. But surely, you supposed, someone more experienced and knowledgeable than yourself has already suggested those ideas.
Ummm… probably not.
You see, not only are you far more qualified than you may readily admit, you're likely also in the company of many, many, many — many women who underestimate themselves. Hard as we all work to combat that insidious imposter syndrome.
So, the shameless and repeated solicitation for panels is not for some imaginary "other." It's for you. If you have the curiosity and tenacity to learn more about a topic, to gather experts, and to present an enriching and engaging session for your fellow JAWS members.
In short, you don't need to be an expert today – you just need the drive to grow your own knowledge and the skills to locate awesome trainers or panelists. CAMP relies on the work of organizers and volunteers. Your work is what makes CAMP happen – and what makes it so uniquely fulfilling.
This is your chance to give back everything you've gotten from CAMP. Your insight and will to lead will make all the difference in the lives and careers of your fellow CAMPers. For more information, read JAWS Vice President Lindsey Anderson's practically-perfect-in-every-way FAQ.
Thank you for tolerating our incessant nagging, and we hope to see you in Oregon!

(Shutter Stock) (Newser) – A team of Canadians is aiming to send a few hockey pucks up to join Neil Armstrong's golf balls on the surface on the moon. The Canadians are one of 29 teams from 17 countries competing to win some of the $30 million in prize money Google is offering to anybody who can transport a robot to the moon before 2015—and make said robot travel at least 1,640 feet and transit back high-def images and video, CBC reports. Three pucks will be mounted on the Canadian probe's motors to prevent it from tipping over. story continues below "When you need to orient a probe, the normal way is to use a special weight," the team leader explains. "When I looked at what weight would be suitable I just picked up my son's hockey puck and took it in my hands and found that, 'Yeah, it's heavy and it will be absolutely perfect for this job."' He admits that his team's chances of winning Google's $20 million top prize are slim ("there's a one in 100 chance that it will succeed"), but his group plans to have the first version of its lunar craft ready in early 2013 and are currently getting the funds together to have it launched into space.

Democracy Depends on Robust Journalism17 Aug 2017
While much of the news on social media is produced by non-professional (citizen) journalists, we still need professional journalism to make sense of it. Peter Dahlgren considers how the two can learn from each other.
STI Experts
STI Publications
In his overview of Professional and Citizen Journalism (PJ and CJ respectively), Peter Dahlgren stresses the need for the two to challenge each other to improve. As "a robust PJ is necessary for credible democratic governance and for the engagement of citizens in the democratic life of democracy," he says, journalism must "chart a hybrid course" to preserve them.
The following are excerpts from his chapter "Professional and Citizen Journalism: Tensions and Complements" in the volume The Crisis of Journalism Reconsidered:
Traditionally, PJ's legitimacy has rested on such norms as societal significance, publicness, accuracy, impartiality, transparency and accountability; this has been central to PJ's moral authority. The current crisis of journalism can be understood in part as the perceived danger that such professional norms are losing their impact in shaping journalistic practices in the wake of the various forces that PJ is coping with…
CJ confronts PJ with practices and values that destabilize some of its traditional premises as well as its internal and external power configurations. Manifesting itself in a number of different ways, from lone amateurs to what can be viewed as alternative institutions, this heterogeneous CJ resists an easy definition or unified history…
PJ is always confronted by the epistemic challenge of grasping and transmitting knowledge in an ever-changing world; the problem of knowing is never secure. Grappling with truth involves acknowledging the multiplicity of valid frames of perception in the world today; there is no one universally valid perspective, since all are in some ways localized. Yet. With its established work routines, PJ tends to cluster its interpretive horizons fairly tightly. As socially situated storytellers, news organizations usually deploy well-embodied, taken-for-granted discourses that prestructure much of the meaning to be conveyed. In this regard the counterpoints of CJ and its ensemble of alternative perspectives should be seen as a positive asset…
Both PJ and CJ need to come to terms with traditional journalistic criteria to see what can and should be salvaged from that toolkit, and what new elements may need to be introduced… It is a set of dynamics that will continue to play out intensely in the years ahead, shaped by evolving circumstances. But for the sake of democracy, we need a positive unfolding.

samfu and I have a sledding location dubbed Grozny Grad. It's name is rooted in a cliff-top area from Metal Gear Solid 3 endowed with the key trait of a panorama of the final sprawling industrial complex. I had not yet travelled into our local industrial complex. I wandered, enjoyed phone conversations about one of the many topics on my mind, and climbed on top of roofs. I forgot how relaxing climbing can be.

| 7.8°C Belfast
Wales stand-in coach Rob Howley will demand his players are more clinical when they attempt to save the series against Australia in the second test in Melbourne on Saturday.
The Grand Slam champions lost their six-match unbeaten run with a 27-19 defeat in Brisbane against a Wallabies team that scored as many tries in one game as Wales had conceded in the whole of the RBS 6 Nations Championship.
But Howley still believes his side can hit back in the second Test and take the battle for the James Bevan Trophy into a deciding third Test in Sydney. He said: "We showed great character and spirit in the second half to bring the game back to 20-19, but it is all about being clinical."
He added: "All the chances we created in the second half, compared to the first half performance, caused Australia some problems. But we just didn't take enough of our opportunities. In the first half the speed and intensity of the game was at a level we hadn't played at for some time. We struggled with the pace of the game.
"As a result our support systems around the tackle area weren't good enough. For the next six or seven days we will work hard to improve and we will be much better for having played a game.
"We didn't grasp the speed of the ball at the tackle area and that is something we will have to do some work on. We also played too much in our territory instead of going for field position.
"But while we were 10-3 down at half-time, we only lost the second half 17-16. Our brand of rugby involves an offloading style, but on our terms and we lacked accuracy under pressure."
Wallabies coach Robbie Deans expects both sides to improve over the space of the week and is predicting a tough series.
"We are very proud of the players' response not only from the start, but especially at 20-19. It has been a huge effort and they got the job done," said Deans.
"Will Genia and Berrick Barnes were both very good and gave us a clear understanding of what we were trying to do. But this is a good Welsh side that put us under a lot of pressure. They are a fit side and it is going to be a great series for sure. They are going to come back at us strongly in Melbourne."

It is good, very good.
What I would like is to see it in its own (dependencies free) package.
SQL::Abstract::Tree (which I do not use) brings a lot of unneeded stuff.
It will be great if one can install SQL::Abstract via cpan alone without SQL::Abstract::Tree.
Now it is possible to do so by just copying the Abstract.pm to your local lib directory, but this is not the "official approach".
Don't make the short-sighted mistake of discounting SQL::Abstract, because it doesn't do everything you need. While you can do joins, SQL::Abstract really shines in the generation of straight SQL for a single table. Since it takes simple (or complex) data structures as parameters, it is perfect for programatically generating SQL statements for select,update, insert, and delete queries. By using SQL::Abstract to generate SQL for all of my non-ClassDBI/DBIx::Class classes, I now have a consistent interface for all of my searching routines.
Love it! And, yes, we could put together a whole book of examples of how to use it. The syntax does get a little crazy when you want to do more -- especially with boolean logic.
Excellent way to make database work less tedious; writes your SQL for you, so you don't have to think about it.
May start to become awkward when your needs become more in-depth and you need big hairy queries, but for your average database work, this will handle it all with ease, and the interface is sane enough to avoid making you think.
I just found this handy little package. I've done SQL building here and there but never again. The best thing... the output of SQL::Abstract methods are a direct input for DBIx::Array.
my $sabs=SQL::Abstract->new;
my $dbx=DBIx::Array->new;
$dbx->connect($connection, $user, $pass, \%opt);
my $count=$dbx->insert($sabs->insert($table, \%field));
my @data=$dbx->sqlarrayarray($sabs->select($table)); #whole table
I still need to find out how to use column aliases in the select.
I've used quite a few bits of code that try to represent SQL queries as structures of constraints. They generally range from painfully horrible to painfully naive. SQL-Abstract is really quite good. It's got almost everything I've needed, and then enough flexibility at the edges that I've rarely had to entirely circumvent it to get the job done.
I use SQL::Abstract heavily within and without Class::DBI, it allows me to assemble powerful queries from snippets and hashes of parameters and because it also provides the query, makes it simple to debug.
The documentation is good, but the abilities of SQL::Abstract excede what the documentation specifies, and although 9 times out of 10, it DWIM in absence of any specification of that behaviour in the documentation, sometimes the only way to see how to do something is to suck it and see, as they say in the documentation.
I think you could easily do with a pocket reference for this module alone, it has that much power and flexibility.
This module is very interesting, as it allows to keep your code "perlish" without inlining ugly SQL code.
It's nearly perfect, as subselects are not supported yet, but it is enough for most tasks. The where method can be used to create just the search statements, which will allow you to make queries with joins.
The DBIx::Class ORM relies on it and - in my opinion - SQL::Abstract gives the best when used inside DBIx::Class. It's - however - very useful anyhow.
This module is absolutely great if your needs in terms of SQL complexity are simple. It Just Works the way a Perl programmer would expect. You can be up and running in very little time; for small scripts automating simple tasks it's just what the doctor ordered.
Unfortunately, things start breaking apart if your needs are more complex. The resulting structures can be hard to visually parse and grok. There is no provision for subselects either, regardless of effort invested; it's just not possible to do them in its current state.
The documentation is generally well-written and helpful. It could be a little better organized (I often found myself spending too much time looking up things), but that is a somewhat minor quibble. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere.
I'd rate this module between 3 and 4 if it was possible, but it has definite potential to earn a 5.
This is one of my favorite modules; I use it all the time. There are
some quirks with how it works, but I think they are mostly because
SQL can get very hairy very quickly. Fortunately, SQL::Abstract
provides you with an escape route: The ability to use raw SQL for
the parts that are hard to do abstractly, while still keeping the
benefits of the abstraction.
SQL::Abstract is a nice alternative to the DBIx::Abstract module for providing a more Perl-like interface to creating SQL statements. Unlike DBIx::Abstract, SQL::Abstract does not use the database handle at all. It simply parses a Perl data structure and returns a SQL statement and appropriate bind variable.
This design gives you more flexibility to do something like a "prepare" a stement once, and then execute it over and over. This means that for something like doing a lot of inserts, SQL::Abstract can be exponentially faster than DBIx::Abstract.
I use the module for quickly creating large INSERT and UPDATE statements, as well as creating particular kinds of WHERE clauses.

By DONNA BALANCIA
A new book of photos documenting Iggy Pop's early days has just been released and California Rocker has an exclusive inside look.
"Iggy Pop: Bare & Real" (Fat Possum Records and Tyrant Books) is a collection of photos and anecdotes by Paul McAlpine, Iggy's longtime photographer. He toured with the Godfather of Punk in the late 1970s, the 1980s, and returned to photograph him again through his recent tours including Post Pop Depression.
We're fortunate to get an exclusive first look at this great book and congrats to Paul, who worked hard to get this collection of images out there.
Iggy was no stranger to California and venues like The Whisky A Go-Go in West Hollywood, where he invited some impressive friends along to the gigs. Former Sex Pistols' player Steve Jones, known in LA for his radio show "Jonesy's Jukebox" was around for the Instinct rehearsals and gigs.
In the foreword, Iggy wrote: "I've always been kind of a wandering soul of street rock n roll, and as louche as that sounds, there's a time when you've got to come in out of the rain, and meet the assholes who own the roof. For me, these were the years 1976 through '89, during which I flailed, tranced, mimed, and outraged my way through the halls of the professional music business.
"Frankly, looking at these photos I'd say that I was a breath of fresh air, albeit a skinny desperate and pretty hopeless one.
"Here in Paul's lens you see people like David Bowie, Suchi, Art and Henry the managers, occasional flashes of my butt, professional English Musicians like Ricky Gardner, Kevin Armstrong, et al, brassier American musos the Sales Brothers, international uber rich nobility such as Julio Mario Santo Domingo Jr., dirty filthy lovely die hard drug ridden Iggy Pop fans, and wacko Europunks like the legendary Andy McCoy, as we toured and toured and toured.
"Oh yeah, can't forget Jos (who do I bash?) Grain my lifelong friend and roadie. Steve Jones shows up with his Sex Pistol and I meet Roland Rat on his preteen chat show. Anything to survive, and I did, so there! Thanks to Paul for all, Iggy Pop."
Banned on UK TV, Revived by Roland Rat
There were some interesting adventures while on tour outside of the U.S., McAlpine recalled. While in the UK there were some censorship issues after an alleged on-camera assault of a stuffed teddy bear.
"We did a live Saturday morning children's TV show, all we were told was the parents were away and the kids invite a rock band to play in the basement," recalled McAlpine. "They did 'Wild One' and Iggy picked up a huge teddy bear and gave it a little doggie. 'News of the World' called for a ban of Iggy on future TV in the UK. Someone should have told us it was a live kids show!"
But while the prank didn't go over big with certain people, McAlpine said there were other kids' characters who felt differently about Iggy.
"We went to do Roland Rat and he laughed," McAlpine said.
"Roland Rat was a television puppet character created by David Claridge," recalled McAlpine. "Our worries about 'News of the World' wanting to ban Iggy Pop from British TV faded quickly when David smiled and handed Jim a pile of solo and The Stooges albums to sign."
To check out "Iggy Pop: Bare & Real" go to the Fat Possum website.

For millions of people, taking snapshots of our lives through digital media has become just another part of everyday life. Billions of photos, videos, and audio recordings – all representing unique moments in time – and all captured, broken down, and stored forever in the form of 1s and 0s in the cloud.
The rise of the "experience economy", valuing moments over physical goods and possessions, has been recognised and understood for some time. And our new research paper, the Spending Power Index, has revealed it to be one part of a much bigger picture, with millennials (defined here as the 26 – 40 age group) leading cross-generational change not just in the value of experience, but in the structure of people's lives.
The trend can be clearly seen when looking at what British consumers – across all demographics, not just millennials – are choosing to spending their money on.
We expect lifestyle spending to grow by 3.1% in 2019, while spending on holidays will grow by a whopping 4%.
In contrast, retail spending – the amount of money Brits spend on buying goods – will grow by an average of just 1.9% in the same period. This will be the third consecutive year of easing growth in retail spending, at an average of 2.9%. Meanwhile, holiday spending will have grown at average of 3.7% per year over the same period.
Impact on retail
What this means for retail marketers is quite simple – if you want to entice shoppers, you'll need to offer more than just stocked shelves.
In a world where you can buy the same goods online, stores are already considering what else they can offer customers beyond a better, more exciting buying environment. Many are setting up new store layouts, payment schemes, and innovative in-store customer experiences.
Some businesses are taking it further still by investing in partnerships to heighten the experiential element of a physical space, and further reduce the emphasis on traditional retail transactions.
One example of this is the partnership between WeWork and Samsung, where the tech giant's customer care centre doubles up as a modern work facility, complete with high-speed internet and video conferencing capability.
Demographic shift
Contrary to popular opinion, it's not just the younger generation who are learning to value experience. The trend exists across all demographic groups.
Holiday spending is set to grow fastest among people aged between 41-45, at 4.9%. That's compared to 4.6% for those between 26-30.
And the 71-75 and 76+ age brackets are spending the highest proportion of their incomes on holidays out of every group we studied.
This extension of the experience economy to all UK demographics is one part of the bigger picture I mentioned.
Increasingly, millennials – the freedom generation – are shunning traditional models of salaried employment and retail spending in favour of lifestyles that offer more control over their time.
Through 2018 and 2019, we predict millennial age brackets will see an average 3.6% increase in their self-employment income. Those aged between 31-35 will make £127.52 per week in self-employed income in 2019, compared to just £104.72 in 2013.
So what does this all mean for employers, marketers, and society?
It's clear that millennials are demanding control over their lives. And they're are prepared to fend for themselves if it isn't being delivered by their employers.
They are obtaining increasing levels of income from their own means, like self-employment and entrepreneurialism, and becoming less reliant on monthly salaries to survive.
To engage these people successfully, employers should be looking at flexible working programs that allow staff to work in their own time, trusting that this increased level of responsibility will reap rewards from a generation that's getting used to making its own way in the world.
And it means that brand leaders and marketers who want to target them should be very aware that they won't be easily manipulated. Their interest in owning things – as judged by growth in their retail spending – will have slowed for three consecutive years by 2019. At the same time their spending on lifestyle and experiences will follow the broader national trend upwards.
In this age of information abundance, our perception of value is shifting from the material to the ephemeral.
Millennials are increasingly inspiring the rest of us to find the worth not in simply owning a piece of the real world for but in experiencing it and owning the memories instead.

Several authors stop by "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart", and last night was no exception. Other than the fact that the author, Amy Yates Wuelfing, brought along Butthole Surfers frontman Gibby Haynes.
Yates Wuelfing was there to discuss her book No Slam Dancing, No Stage Diving, No Spikes: An Oral History of the Legendary City Gardens. Stewart actually worked at the famous Jersey punk club as a bartender. Haynes called the venue "a place you could play between New York and Philadelphia."
One of the first concerts Stewart saw there was Butthole Surfers and Dead Kennedys. He recalled that there were two areas in the club free of people punching each other: behind the bar and on the stage. Haynes said he got stabbed on stage one time.
Stewart showed a picture of a Butthole Surfers show featuring a topless woman and an active fire. Haynes told a story about getting "bitched at by a hormone-crazed soccer mom" after a show for his on-stage behavior. His retort: "What are you doing after the show?"
Haynes also had the word "GWAR" written in large letters on his wrist, and Stewart briefly acknowledged the passing of Oderus Urungus.

Upcoming Webinar Discusses Risk, Efficiency and Compliance for EPC Projects, 11 November
I will be participating in a free Enterprise Informatics webinar on the topic of reducing risk, improving efficiency and ensuring compliance. I hope you can join us. Here's the registration link.
This webinar is very timely. With $155 billion invested world-wide in 2008 and $1 billion in federal stimulus money allocated in 2009 for green energy initiatives in the U.S., the EPC (engineer-procure-construct) industry is facing an unprecedented growth opportunity as new energy construction projects begin around the globe. The EPC industry faces the major challenge of ensuring the visibility and communication of millions of pieces of information related to thousands of milestones and accessed by hundreds of contractors over several years. In order to reduce project risk, it will be imperative to manage the complete information life cycle of project-related activity from the planning, design engineering and construction phases to the operations and maintenance phase. Program managers, project managers/leaders, design engineers, quality/safety managers, change managers and compliance managers should plan on attending
I look forward to speaking at this webinar and answering your questions as part of the forum. – Jon C. Arnold, Microsoft Managing Director, Worldwide Utilities Industry

Home Video Review: Jason Bateman Helps HBO's Stephen King Miniseries 'The Outsider' Get Off to a Good StartJanuary 13 2020
Jason Bateman stars in and directs the first two episodes of HBO's The Outsider, the latest miniseries based on a Stephen King novel. Man, does King ever walk away from the keyboard?
Terry Maitland (Bateman) is arrested by Ralph Anderson (Ben Mendelsohn) while coaching a Little League game—and the charges against him are shocking: Terry has allegedly killed a small boy, with witnesses placing him at the scene of the crime. There's also surveillance video and forensic evidence that seemingly confirm his guilt. Yet Terry proclaims his innocence and has a solid alibi, including witness accounts and video confirmation that he was many miles away when the crime occurred.
The first two episodes of the 10-part series offer a good setup, with Bateman doing a nice job both behind and in front of the camera. There's no question I will be tuning in for more as the story continues on a one-episode-per-week basis. (Yes, HBO is doing it old school!) It's a crime story, but there are hints at something much more, including a supernatural angle—and the first two episodes act as nice hook.
Some future episodes are directed by Andrew Bernstein, who works with Bateman on Ozark. So, there's no final verdict yet on whether this will be good as a whole or not. I can only speak about the first 20 percent, which I liked.
The Outsider is now airing on HBO and its streaming services.
Home Video Review: The Second Season of Netflix's 'Ozark' Starts Off With a Resounding ThudSeptember 04 2018
Over Labor Day weekend, I binge-watched Ozark, a show about a Chicago family whose financial-expert patriarch, Marty Byrde (Jason Bateman), made the unfortunate decision to launder money for a Mexican drug cartel. He eventually winds up in the Ozarks with his family, where he finds ways to launder more money through the lakeside businesses he gobbles up.
The first season worked just fine. Bateman himself directed a couple of episodes that I found to be generally gripping, and Laura Linney had some great moments as Wendy Byrde, mother and wife. Julia Garner was very good as Ruth, a local looking to ride Marty's fake wealth into a better life.
As for the just-released second season … I am four episodes in so far, and it stinks.
It's all about the Byrdes being stuck in the Ozarks and trying to manipulate their various schemes, with the first few episodes trying too hard to explain what happened in Season 1. It's a show in which it seems like the writers are desperately worried about reminding viewers about all the past details. Hey, let it fly; we'll figure it out.
The first season focused on criminal activity in the small territory. The second goes into state government and political intrigue as the Byrdes try to build a casino. The dialogue gets dumber and dumber as the show wears on, and it becomes a slog.
I don't like what I'm seeing. Ruth has become nothing but annoying; Marty and Wendy are just running around over-explaining why they are bad; and Trevor Long's increased screen time as Ruth's disgusting dad is unwelcome.
I hope things get better in the final six episodes of Season 2, If they do not, Ozark will have been better off as a limited series rather than a continuing entity. It's stretching its premise to extremes that are not at all entertaining.
Ozark is currently streaming on Netflix.
Home Video Review: The Fifth Season of 'Arrested Development' Proves It's Still One of TV's Funniest ShowsJune 11 2018
The Bluths are back together again—with more simultaneous screen time than in Season 4—in the latest Arrested Development reunion on Netflix.
The plotting of this season involves a little too much crazy stuff regarding Lucille 2 (Liza Minnelli) and the shared girlfriend (Isla Fisher) of Michael (Jason Bateman) and George Michael (Michael Cera), making things a bit haphazard. That doesn't stop it from being very funny.
There's a lot of weirdness at play. Buster (Tony Hale) does jail time (during which he touches a mouse!), while Tobias (David Cross) obsesses with impersonating everybody in the family. Cross remains the funniest guy on this show; he goes full-blown insane this season. Gob (Will Arnett) is dealing with feelings for fellow magician Tony Wonder (Ben Stiller), so he makes a visit to a Closet Conversion facility (which is not what he thinks). Maeby (Alia Shawkat), for reasons I won't explain, winds up brilliantly impersonating an old Jewish woman in a retirement community.
Even it is a bit frantic, Arrested Development remains one of the funniest shows on TV. (Who knew Henry Winkler was going to be so funny when he grew up?) When it slows down for stuff like a barbecue at Ron Howard's house (including cameos by Bryce Dallas Howard and the rest of the Howard family), it's as funny as it ever was.
Netflix currently has eight episodes streaming now, with eight more coming later this year.
Give co-directors John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein a lot of credit for making a movie about friends gathering for a game night—a premise that sounds kind of stupid—and turning Game Night into one of the funnier dark comedies in recent memory.
Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams play Max and Annie, a married couple with a love of board games and arcades. They host weekly game nights with their friends, but the latest one could be a bit annoying for Max, because it involves his highly successful brother, Brooks (Kyle Chandler). Brooks asks to take over game night; Max concedes; and what follows is a great and funny series of surprising, twisted and often super-bloody events. I don't want to give away the big twists; I'll just say the film managed to trick me on numerous occasions—while making me laugh hard.
Bateman and McAdams turn in some of the funniest work in their careers, while Billy Magnussen is a scream as the group dunderhead; Lamorne Morris does a very good Denzel Washington; and Jesse Plemons steals scenes with a dog as Max and Annie's weird cop neighbor. And by weird, I mean super, mega weird.
The movie actually plays out like a great round of Clue, in which you guess the contents of the envelope and get it totally wrong, because the filmmakers are constantly fooling you in hilarious ways.
Daley and Goldstein constantly prove that there is nothing they wouldn't do for a good laugh. They take a lot of risks—and they pay off.
Game Night is playing at theaters across the valley.
Home Video Review: Despite Good Work by Jason Bateman and Nicole Kidman, 'The Family Fang' Feels UnevenMay 24 2016
Jason Bateman follows up his strong directorial debut, Bad Words, with The Family Fang, a loopy tale about a quirky, dysfunctional family. Unfortunately, the movie never really finds its way.
The film gets off to a good start as Bateman plays Baxter Fang, a down-and-out writer trying to put together his next novel who is taking odd writing jobs in the meantime. He winds up doing a feature on potato guns, and eventually gets shot in the head by one.
Enter Annie Fang (Nicole Kidman), his actress sister; she used to be an indie-film queen, but she's reached that stage in her career where taking off her clothes is mandatory. She comes home to assist Baxter, which gets them ruminating on their childhoods.
Their parents, Caleb and Camille (played in their older versions by Christopher Walken and Maryann Plunkett), were infamous pranksters. They would stage bank robberies and other public occurrences, film them—and call it art. This resulted in a rather screwy childhood for Annie and Baxter, with parents who got famous by basically being horribly irresponsible.
Oddly enough, the film loses steam when Walken enters the picture. The premise involving his character feels a little too contrived, and it actually puts a strange restriction, of sorts, on the weirdo actor. When Walken is off-screen, the movie has a whimsical, funny vibe. When Walken is present, the film feels phony, even though his performance is OK.
Bateman has the potential to be an interesting director, but the subject matter doesn't suit his style this time out. While The Family Fang feels uneven, Bateman and Kidman are good together, so it isn't a complete waste of time.
The Family Fang is available on demand and via online sources including iTunes and Amazon.com. It will be available on DVD July 5.
Disney has delivered another animated winner with Zootopia, a cute, uplifting story with a surprising dark side. It's the sort of movie that'll have kids asking parents questions about some tough topics—while entertaining anyone who sits down to watch it.
Judy (Ginnifer Goodwin, in a performance worthy of the Voice Acting Hall of Fame) is a little bunny determined to be the first bunny cop on the force in Zootopia, a metropolis populated by animals. However, she faces a lot of opposition—both because she's a bunny and a girl. Judy beats insurmountable odds, and winds up on the force, much to the chagrin Chief Bogo (Idris Elba).
The chief assigns her to traffic, of course, where she meets up with shifty fox Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman) who is running an ingenious Popsicle scam. When some mammals come up missing, Judy finds herself on the case. She eventually enlists the help of Nick, and they seek out a missing otter.
The film is co-directed by three guys: Byron Howard (Tangled), Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph) and Jared Bush (making his feature debut!). Directing by committee certainly works in this case, as the film has a nice, unified feel while sustaining a surprising depth. Among the themes successfully tackled are sexism, racism and bunnyism.
When discussing these aspects of the film, go ahead and get bunnyism out of the way first with the kids. Here's a potential hypothetical dinnertime conversation regarding Zootopia when a child asks if a bunny can be a cop:
"No, my dear child, a bunny can't be on the police force," the parent answers.
"But Mom and Dad, dogs are allowed on the police force. Why not bunnies, too?"
"Because dogs are big and strong and have heightened senses of smell that help us to find drugs and things."
"Actually, rabbits not only have a very keen sense of smell, dear parent, but they also have those big ears which makes them really good listeners and potentially awesome detectives! Their presence on the force could provide a new level of insight and outreach for a branch of civilization often roundly criticized for its lack of empathy and compassion."
"Shut up and eat your broccoli!"
To give away how the film approaches the topic of racism would be to give away too many aspects of the plot. There's a good mystery at play, and it's done in an intelligent way that will keep parents and kids guessing and engaged.
Other members of the voice cast include J.K. Simmons as Mayor Lionheart, Tommy Chong as the fly-infested Yax, Jenny Slate as Assistant Mayor Bellwether, and Shakira as Gazelle the pop star. Let it be said that Shakira's performance of "Try Everything" is better than any movie music 2015 had to offer. Man, last year truly sucked for movie soundtracks, didn't it?
The animation is top-notch and inventive, with cute little touches throughout. Judy's hometown is farmland, distinguished by an Easter-pastels palette. At one point, Judy chases a thief through a rodent community, sending a bunch of mice running for cover in their little buildings as if she were Godzilla. I especially liked a moment when a train arrived in a station, and a little door opened up besides bigger doors to let out a stream of chipmunks. Freaking adorable!
Disney now has another great bunny to add to the souvenir rack at Disneyland alongside Thumper, Roger Rabbit and Rabbit from Winnie the Pooh. (I feel Rabbit from Winnie the Pooh doesn't get the recognition he deserves.) Judy is a true winner, as is Zootopia, already a solid contender for Best Animated Film of 2016.
Take the kids knowing you might actually enjoy yourself, and appreciate the film—even if it does act as a shred grenade on your wallet, especially if you spring for 3-D. Jeez, movie-going is expensive.
Zootopia is playing at theaters across the valley.
Joel Edgerton writes, directs and stars in The Gift, a capable thriller about the perils of bullying and moving back home.
Jason Bateman and Rebecca Hall play Simon and Robyn, a married couple returning to California, where Simon has a new job. While shopping for throw pillows, they run into Gordo (Edgerton), a high school pal who Simon doesn't seem to remember at first. Gordo goes out of his way to welcome the new couple, dropping by the house uninvited, stocking their pond with fish—and basically creeping Simon out.
As the film progresses, more is revealed about Simon, his past with Gordo, and his dishonesty. Bateman, who usually opts for more comedic roles, is very good as a man who thinks he is in control and can get away with habitual fibbing. Hall is terrific as the wife who can't help but feel a little sorry for Gordo. Edgerton is creepy and, somehow, sympathetic as the strange man from the past who wants Simon to remember him in the worst of ways.
Edgerton shows that he can write a screenplay with some good twists, direct so there are plenty of surprises, and act so well that it's good and scary. He's a true triple threat.
The Gift is playing at theaters across the valley.
While the first Horrible Bosses got by on the charms of its three main stars, the second one falls a bit short.
Nick (Jason Bateman), Kurt (Jason Sudeikis) and Dale (Charlie Day) have decided to go into business for themselves after the events of the first film. They wind up on TV pitching a stupid idea called the Shower Buddy, where they are seen by Rex (Chris Pine), the son of billionaire businessman Bert Hanson (Christoph Waltz). This leads to that, and the boys wind up in a kidnapping scheme involving Rex trying to double-cross his dad.
The screenplay strains to bring back Jennifer Aniston as the naughty dentist and Kevin Spacey as the embittered ex-boss. It also doesn't help that Day and Sudeikis are a bit overwrought this time out; their acts are getting a little tired.
Bateman is easily the funniest thing about this movie—effortlessly smarmy, as always. I laughed a fair amount of times, but these characters would be better-served with all-new material and a new premise. I like seeing them together, but they need a new place to play.
Horrible Bosses 2 is playing at theaters across the valley.
Blu-Ray Review: Jason Bateman Gives Spelling-Bee Flick 'Bad Words' a 'Bad Santa' Sort of VibeJuly 08 2014
Jason Bateman makes a decent directorial debut with Bad Words, a nasty little movie about a man on a vengeful path to win a spelling bee for reasons unknown.
Bateman plays Guy Trilby, a man with amazing spelling capabilities who enters a children's spelling bee upon noticing an eligibility loophole. Guy is super-pissed for some reason, and he refuses to step aside when parents and organizers beg him to be mature and let the kids spell.
The film takes on a bit of a Bad Santa vibe when the vulgar Guy winds up palling around with one of the kids (Rohan Chand). Shenanigans ensue involving hookers and booze; and Bateman does a decent job pushing the boundaries of bad taste while keeping things entertaining and relatively good-natured.
The big reveal—the motive behind Guy's mission—isn't all that surprising, and is even a bit anticlimactic. No matter; Bateman and Chand provide enough laughs to overcome any plot contrivances.
Special Features: Bateman provides a commentary, and there are deleted and extended scenes. There's also a brief behind-the-scenes look.
Home Video Review: The New 'Arrested Development' Season Is Different, but Fantastic NonethelessJune 03 2013
Netflix subscribers who find the entertainment selection a little weak at times currently have access to one of the year's greatest television surprises: An new 15-episode season of Arrested Development is currently available on the streaming service, and it's as if one of TV history's funniest and oddest families never left.
Each episode generally focuses on one character, like Jason Bateman's Michael Bluth, with the other family members playing supporting roles. The episodes' chronologies overlap, but the character focus changes. This amounts to a lot of fun.
If you are a fan, you will not be disappointed. Will Arnett's Gob still performs magic to the refrain of Europe's "The Final Countdown." David Cross' Tobias is still a "never nude." Portia de Rossi's Lindsay is still shopping-obsessed, and so on.
The new shows also feature great cameos, including Ron Howard providing more than his voice, and a blessed reunion of Henry Winkler and Scott Baio.
There's been some talk of an Arrested Development movie. As far as I see it, this is a 7 1/2 hour movie, since you can currently watch them all in a row.

Southbank Residents Group
15 Jul 2013
We need more certainty than C171 provides
As reported on page 5, the Minister for Planning, Matthew Guy, has approved the much discussed and debated C171 Southbank Structure Plan.
After years of community, developer and council consultation, Southbank residents (and future residents) should in theory have greater certainty in the planning future of our suburb. But, do we?
With only a small handful of mandatory elements protecting height, predominately in the arts precinct, the structure plan is primarily constructed around "guidelines", offering the much-used and abused ability for development applicants to talk their way around having to adhere to "restrictive" planning standards that, some argue, stifle the creative planning development of the suburb.
Currently traveling through Europe, I'm in constant awe at how Amsterdam and Paris staunchly protect their architectural heritage, at how Barcelona and Madrid have successfully created vibrant communities and plazas/open spaces around predominately low rise CBD suburbs and how, on my stopover, Singapore continues to create one of the most integrated and liveable high-rise cities in the world.
What do all these cities have in common that is still lacking in Melbourne? Long-term planning vision. These fantastic and vibrant cities haven't been developed by chance. Nor have they been left in the hands of developers to determine what's in the best interests of the city. Both local and regional/state governments have established long-term development plans (including many mandatory requirements) that have been implemented over decades of bipartisan agreement and have resulted in positive community outcomes.
You can even visit some of these cities' planning offices and, on public display, are the scaled models of what the city will look like in 20 years time. Now that's real planning vision!
And what does Melbourne have? Half-baked guidelines that leave most of the development decisions in the hands of developers who are interested in maximising their return on investment rather than taking into account public needs and infrastructure requirements. And who can blame them for taking this stance anyway? For it's the role of government to establish the planning vision for a city and to ensure that it has strong planning guidelines in place that deliver to this vision.
I challenge the State Government to show us a scaled model of what Southbank will look like 20 years from now. Or to outline what public infrastructure it will commit to during the same time frame.
Schools, new tram/bus routes, police stations, open spaces, community venues. If Singapore, Hong Kong and Shanghai can model it all out and have it on permanent public display, why can't we?
We're all still left wondering what Fishermans Bend will look like but a lack of town planning vision hasn't stopped the development applications from already being lodged and approved.
Until the State Government provides the same level of planning foresight and policy frameworks as its overseas counterparts do, we'll continue to see uncertainty in planning and simply block-by-block development approvals.
That doesn't create a great suburb or city.
You can't leave town planning to chance.

text: First, apologies as this relates to a 40 cal xdm. Why I am asking here is that it relates to some ammo Mike Willard made up for me before he passed, a scalding hot 165 gd at 1325 fps. What happened to me yesterday I have never seen or heard of before, so since this forum deals with issues of high speed and high pressure and all the surrounding issues, I come here. I have a g29 and am used to firing hot loads...but anyway... Here's what happened. I was just going to shoot my xdm because I was bored, and it had been a while since I shot it, so I carried it outside with a few of Mike's rounds in it. Full mag. I fired the first round, and enjoyed the feel. I looked down on the ground, and an unfired shell was on the ground. I shot a few more rounds, and went inside. The uncertainty of what just happened made me pause and think. So I loaded up the gun just like it was before, went back outside, and the exact same thing happened. I think the shell jumped out of the gun somehow....I don't know Now I'm really perplexed. I fill the mag up with some 180 grain federal hst.....go back out, and viola....no problem, no issue. So....I'm completely lost and perplexed. I think the issue was with the ammo...I do have a stronger recoil spring. The xdm appears fine, fires normal ammo ok. Next weekend I'm going to shoot it more to try to figure out what is going on. Any ideas?

Our friends Tami and Wes left Misawa a little before us and went first to Monterey, CA for 9-ish months and then to Argentina for one year. We dreamed of visiting them in Argentina, but alas, the first year or two of starting a new business is not a great time to travel. After Argentina, they went to Germany joining many of our other Misawa friends. That is when Wes started planning our epic trip/reunion to Europe. Doug started planning it with Wes on a strictly hypothetical basis.
Sure, we'd been saving for a vacation for a looooong time, and sure we had frequent flyer miles for the tickets, but are those good enough reasons to flit a quarter-way around the world?
(The answer is yes.)
Wes got some other families on board and started the "Convince-Douglas-To-Come Campaign" in earnest.
(Are you wondering if I needed convincing? I didn't.)
Pretty soon plans were taking shape and a reunion was being planned and we actually had to commit.
When we bought the plane tickets many months ago, I still couldn't actually believe we'd actually go. I wondered if Doug would back out.
Evidently, just because you have money set aside in account labelled "vacation" doesn't mean you have to use it for a vacation. Turns out you can use it to pay bills. At least that's what I'm told.
Fortunately, even Doug is susceptible to peer-pressure and soon we were all in--(if skeptical it would really happen.)
When we got on the plane in San Diego, early in the morning on May 26th, kid-free, I was still more anxious than excited. (Could have been the sleep deprivation and angst at leaving Linky.)
When we got to Atlanta, it started to feel a little more real.
And when we were actually in the air listening to announcements in French, I got very excited!
(and then I fell asleep again.)

Passage is too long to post here, but I noticed a few things the writer is saying about wisdom here:
Wisdom is calling, actually raising her voice. Hear it!
From everywhere her is calling, she calls out to all, the children of men, the simple ones, the fools.
From this I assume everyone can hear she calling.
What comes from her mouth is right, true, noble, UTTER TRUTH, straight and nothing crooked or twisted in her words.
Instruction >silver
Knowledge>choice gold
Wisdom > jewels
Wisdom dwells with prudence, knowledge and discretion. Hence if we heed wisdom, we too will dwell there.
Wisdom has counsel, sound wisdom and kings, rulers and princes rule by her.
I could go on and on, but go and read for yourself.
Wisdom is where it's at. find it, heed it, embrace it and love it.
Wisdom was at the beginning and will prevail until the end.
"The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his work,
the first of his acts of old.
23 Ages ago I was set up,
at the first, before the beginning of the earth.
24 When there were no depths I was brought forth,
when there were no springs abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains had been shaped,
before the hills, I was brought forth,
26 before he had made the earth with its fields,
or the first of the dust of the world.
27 When he established the heavens, I was there;
when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,
28 when he made firm the skies above,
when he established the fountains of the deep,
29 when he assigned to the sea its limit,
so that the waters might not transgress his command,
when he marked out the foundations of the earth,
30 then I was beside him, like a master workman,
and I was daily his delight,
rejoicing before him always,
31 rejoicing in his inhabited world
and delighting in the children of man.
~ The Home Engineer
Thank you God our Father for giving us every good and perfect gift from above; Jesus Christ.
Your wonders and miracles are too numerous to count… We rejoice in the word of truth you
encourage us with may we seek you day and night, not turning to the left or to the right.
Thank you for the forgiveness of our sins… That we would be as obedient children and forgiving toward others. Your word speaks of Wisdom-Does not wisdom cry out, your daughters will cry out to you for wisdom. And understanding lift up her voice? Your daughters will seek your understanding… Wisdom takes her stand on the top of the high hill, beside the way, where the paths meet.
Wisdom, She cries out by the gates, at the entry of the city, At the entrance of the doors: " To you, O men, I call, And my voice is to the sons of men. O you simple ones and Daughters of Most High and Holy God, will seek to understand prudence, may your daughters be of an understanding heart.
To you we listen, for you Lord will speak of excellent things, And from the opening of your lips will come right things; For your mouth will speak truth; Wickedness is an abomination to your lips Father.
All the words of your mouth are with righteousness; Nothing crooked or perverse is in them. Thank you Lord! They are all plain to your children who seek to understand, And right to those who find knowledge. We sing praises to you our Lord and our King.
You withhold no good thing from those whose walk is steadfast before you. Thank you for protecting us under the shadow of your wing. We thank you for the precious victories you bring. We wait and hope in your word and in your word put our trust.
In Christ name we pray. Amen!

Bobbi Kristina Brown has reportedly called off her engagement to Nick Gordon.
The couple got together following the death of her mother Whitney Houston, who had raised Nick but not formally adopted him, meaning the pair was brought up like siblings.
But Hollywood Life reports that they have 'mutually' decided that now is not the right time for them to get married.
'Bobbi and Nick really love each other,' a source told the site. 'But they just can't figure out how they want to define their relationship.'
'Bobbi felt like she got swept up in the moment because she was going through a lot of emotions after Whitney's death.
'But they're in love and still together, just not engaged.'
Bobbi recently made her acting debut in a guest starring role on Tyler Perry's For Better or Worse and is in the middle of recording music for an album with some 'big names' in Atlanta.
'It's going to be huge,' the source said. 'She's planning to release it sometime in the next few months and it's going to blow people away.'
Bobbi and Nick are currently renovating their home and are filming scenes for their upcoming reality show.

Buygore Album
In order to set the pace,
one must never stop moving. It's the only way to effectively bob and weave
between encroaching trends and consistently remain steps ahead of the
zeitgeist. Borgore doesn't
halt—ever. His onslaught is relentless with the release of The Buygore Album his second full-length studio album and first
for his own Buygore label set for January 2015.
The electronic dance music
renaissance man (rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, Buygore Records head
honcho, and lady killer) has solidified himself as one of the genre's most
prolific artists and label bosses. Writing
melodies, playing drums and keys, singing, and producing, he literally handles every
aspect himself. He personally ensures that legions of fans worldwide receive
the best experience imaginable from every release and gig.
2014 proved to be a massive
milestone for Borgore. His debut
full-length #NEWGOREORDER
[Buygore/Dim Mak] captured #1 on iTunes Top Electronic Albums Chart, #3 on Billboard's Electronic Albums Chart, #3
on the Top New Artist Albums Chart, and more. Iconic A Clockwork Orange star Malcolm McDowell and Miley Cyrus both
enthusiastically jumped at the chance to collaborate with him, while he
performed for sold out crowds everywhere from the Budweiser Made In America Festival and TomorrowWorld to the Mad
Decent Boat Party. However, 2015 sees him break ground once again with the
release of The Buygore
Album and the launch of its companion jaunt: The Buygore Show Tour.
For the first time in the
history of Buygore Records, Borgore assembles the roster's artists
for both an album and a tour exclusively comprised of "family." This is his
unbridled vision and he's bringing BLVKSTAR,
Ookay, Jauz, Dotcom, Riggi & Piros and "Unicorn Zombie Apocalypse"
collaborator Sikdope along for the
Since first founding the label,
Borgore always wanted to launch a
full-blown tour with all of its artists. 2015 provided the right moment to
bring this dream to life. In between the sold out #NEWGOREORDER TOUR, he tirelessly worked on these
collaborations, whether it be in his cabin during a boat party or backstage.
The label's familial mentality yields an explosive chemistry on The Buygore Album's seven
tracks. This is a group of bros just as down to go bowling or go-karting
together as it is to hit the studio.
The first single "Lindsay Lohan" brings Borgore and Jauz together for a booming and bombastic bass romp. Trap
production resounds in between the titular robotic refrain, churning out a bona
fide banger and homage to the ultimate party girl. Meanwhile "Can't Squad With Us" allows Borgore to expand once again with a
dynamic vocal performance and declaration of his squad's love and independence.
Then, there's BLVCKSTAR and Ookay's "Blow Your Mind" featuring Borgore. It's a slithering scuzzy and sexy
anthem meant to burn a hole through the dance floor.
Each of these talents
continues to engender excitement amongst listeners. Recently, Dotcom was sought
by hip hop superstars, Far East Movement to do an official remix for their
album which was released through Interscope. Jauz is currently working on a
number of official remixes for various labels as well as putting together an EP.
Ookay and Pizza are just friends now so he's ready for whatever.
With The Buygore Show and The
Buygore Show Tour, Borgore once
again doesn't stop.

Earn the Opportunity to Say No
Question: When you go to the first interview for any job, what is your goal; what should be your goal?
Answer: To be invited back for the next step in the process for further consideration.
That is your mission, do well enough to be invited back, one step at a time. Some people go into the interview and boldly say, âIâm going to get that job!â and thatâs a good attitude but I counsel them not to get ahead of themselves. On the other hand, there are also many people who make a snap judgment during the first interview and before it is over they conclude they arenât interested. So they donât endeavor to finish the interview appropriately and, rather, they just give up. When you might have otherwise slept on it, you may have second thoughts about your conclusions if you havenât already killed your own chances to be considered further. This is a mistake I see people make and indeed, hindsight is always 20/20. I contend foresight is more beneficial than hindsight.
The saying goes, âYou donât get a second chance to make a first impressionâ. If you choose to attend an interview, go into it to win it. Anything less and youâre short-changing yourself. The first interview is a screening interview for the most part. As such, donât be surprised if the event is rather mechanical and not very inspiring, they donât know you yet, nor do you know them. Perhaps you may not even meet your potential boss in the first round, but rather an HR staffer who hasnât a clue about the details of the job for which youâve applied. Their function is to screen you for your suitability, in order to send you forward to meet the hiring manager, whose time is short and is otherwise occupied.
I am not suggesting anyone interview for a job they donât want, but donât jump to a conclusion until you have enough facts upon which to base an informed decision. Indeed, if you encounter a complete mismatch between you and the job, you donât match the company culture, or encounter ridiculous conditions, or you meet a jerk and itâs clearly a waste of your time, politely extricate yourself and save any more time wasted. But if you are not quite sure keep going, learn more and if you note something that raises a red flag, take notes; ask a question or save it for further consideration and later clarification. Use your head, as much or more, than your heart â itâs not personal, itâs business so treat it as such.
I canât count all the times I have spoken with people Iâve represented who later, after the fact and against my counsel admitted, âI regret that I didnât continue to at least learn moreâ¦â, âhad I knownâ¦I would have felt differentlyâ¦I might have done something differentâ. But in order to have the option to consider them and take it further, you have to stay focused and demonstrate why you should be considered further. Many people Iâve represented, who did take my advice, later thanked me for convincing them to not quit a process before they learned more, which invariably resulted in increased enthusiasm, which in turn, resulted in a new job. If you havenât noticed increasingly, interviews are harder to come by so donât dismiss something out of hand until you have more facts; strive to kick ass and show why you are their best choice, especially during the all-important first (face-to-face) interview.
In most cases, it is the second interview when youâll have a good overview of the job and, likewise, they gain a better understanding about you. So take every interview seriously in its entirety, get all the information and make the best effort to be invited for the next step â each time. If you like the opportunity, go for it. If you donât you can always decline and say no â but not if you didnât bother to reach this point. Earn the opportunity to be able to say yes, or no â rather than to rush to a snap judgment unnecessarily and unwisely. That is, of course, unless you are one of the lucky ones, who have so many opportunities from which to pick and choose.

I was so confused about the process of transferring, even after talking to my advisor. This just lays it all out in a way that is totally understandable. I particularly like the question and answers at the end, where she gives real life examples and solutions.

Just when you thought your 3G network could comfortably handle low-resolution video, Sling Media has finally gone hi-def. Of course, it intends to position this primarily for moving content around the home to PCs and other televisions (once the SlingCatcher hits next year), but the timing couldn't be a better fit for my presentation of high-def beyond the television as part of a presentation that I'll be giving at CES. Sling must have a fair percentage of users that use the streaming function within the home or a strong belief that those numbers will increase once the loop is closed. It seems it's not just for expats and road warriors.
This is also the best looking Slingbox to date. The company has definitely stepped up its industrial design from the early days of the funky Chunky bar.

Ross pulls a double duty here.
The production of this track, with its rising horns and smooth baseline, reminds the listener of a late night cruise through Miami.

Online Freelance Marketplace Fiverr Selects Mekanism as Agency of Record
They'll be tasked with creating an integrated campaign
Fiverr, "the world's largest marketplace of creative and digital services for entrepreneurs and small business," has selected San Fransisco-based independent creative agency Mekanism as its agency of record, following a review.
In 2016, Fiverr chose New York-based DCX Growth Accelerator (DCX) as its global creative and strategic agency of record after a review. It is unclear at this time whether the agency defended the business in the review.
"Fiverr is fast becoming the world's largest online, on-demand freelance marketplace. They are charting a new path by connecting businesses to bespoke creative services worldwide," Mekanism CEO Jason Harris said in a statement. "Like Fiverr, we have a collaborative and independent spirit and are excited to be doing work for a disruptive brand."
The brand's first campaign, "In Doers We Trust," debuted in January 2017.
"We want the Fiverr brand to inspire and engage people to think differently about how they do their work, from creative to content and everything in between," added Fiverr global head of digital and brand Chris Lane. "Mekanism's strategy, insights and creative were incredibly thoughtful and well-articulated. We can't wait to work together to bring our collective vision to the world."
As agency of record, Mekanism will be tasked with creating an integrated campaign to promote platform awareness across the U.S.
Fiverr currently has raised over $110 million in Series D funding, including investments from Accel, Bessemer Venture Partners, Qumra Capital and Square Peg Capital. Since 2010, there have been around 10 million gigs posted to Fiverr.
Back in April, take-and-bake pizza chain Pizza Murphy's sent its $30 million creative account to Mekanism, following a review. The following month, Mekanism expanded with a new media practice in New York.

A team from IIT Bombay participated in the 'Study in India' fair organized in Nepal. The fair was held during May 22-23, 2019 in Kathmandu and May 25-26, 2019 in Birgunj. The 'Study in India' programme is an initiative by EdCIL, a Government of India company under the aegis of MHRD, specifically to provide a platform for leading universities and institutions from India to showcase their strength in higher education in all disciplines. Apart from IIT Bombay, there were around twenty other universities (both public and private) that participated in the fair. The IIT Bombay team consisted of Mr. Arnab Das, Executive Officer (International Relations), Mr. Prasanna Hate, Administrative Superintendent (Academic Office) and Prof. Upendra Bhandarkar (Mechanical Engineering). The primary aim of the IIT Bombay team was to disseminate information regarding courses and admission procedures to the Masters and PhD programmes running in the Institute. A highlight of IIT Bombay's initiative is the scholarship (30 in number) made available by the Dean (IR) office to international students enrolling in PhD programs, subject to them meeting certain criteria. Past MTech students from IIT Bombay also visited the fair.
The team also visited Tribhuvan University (in Kathmandu), presented a keynote talk at a graduate student symposium and acted as jury member to a poster competition in the Institute of Engineering Campus (Pulchowk), while Mr. Das and Mr. Hate interacted with the Vice Chancellor (Prof. T.R. Khaniya) at the Kirtipur campus to study the possibility of an MoU between IIT Bombay and Tribhuvan University. The team also met four PhD alumni of IIT Bombay, who are faculty members in various engineering streams at Tribhuvan University. At the Kathmandu fair, the second secretary (Education) of the Indian Embassy Mr. N.K. Jaiswal interacted with the IIT Bombay team. The Deputy Chief of Mission Mr. Ajay Kumar along with Mr. N.K. Jaiswal, Mr. C.P. Singh and Mr. A.K. Chakraborty from the Education wing of the embassy also interacted with the team from IIT Bombay. At Birgunj, the Consul General Mr. B.C. Pradhan interacted with the team. Overall, it was a fruitful visit and the team expects more applications at the Masters and PhD level from Nepali students.
