CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu
Select the Linux release you want
On the order form, you can decide on an OS for the dedicated hosting server. You could make your choice between several Linux releases – Debian, Ubuntu or CentOS. On the order form, go for your desired distribution by using the drop–down list under Server Options. As soon as you complete the purchase, we will start up the server for you and we will deploy your favorite Linux OS. We'll as well install our in–house–built Web Site Control Panel without charge.
Dedicated Servers with SSD Drives
Dedicated servers equipped with super fast SSDs.
The pros of using solid-state drives should not be disregarded when it comes to dedicated servers. They offer dramatically enhanced data access speeds and a bigger I/O capacity, which implies faster loading sites. This also implies that the server's CPU can take care of more tasks, which will noticeably enhance its performance.
That is precisely why almost all of our Intel-driven dedicated servers include extra-fast & dependable SSD drives by default.
A Free Web Site Control Panel
Supervise your sites and apps with a single click.
Should you require a dedicated hosting server for your content–loaded websites, in such a case you as well need an easy way to control all of them. While the computer terminal interface is effective, it isn't easy–to–use enough for anyone to make use of. Because of this, we offer the free–of–charge Web Site Control Panel with all of our dedicated hosting servers. It'll transform the complicated dedicated hosting server maintenance responsibilities to basic routine.
In addition, with the RatherBe-Me Web Site Control Panel, you will at the same time grab all of the 100% free benefits and tools that are generally offered solely with the Linux shared hosting accounts.
A State–of–the–Art Data Center
Boosted stability and online connectivity for your server
We have selected quite possibly the most reputable and safeguarded USA based data center to store your dedicated hosting server. The Steadfast centre is located in the vicinity of a communications centre, at the heart of Chicago, and features plenty of system capacity and ultra–fast links to the West and East Shorelines. Stability is also provided by an on–site supervising crew ready round–the–clock. The risk of outages triggered by natural disasters such as earthquakes is considerably minimized too.
Server Hardware
Top–quality hardware for your server
Our dedicated hosting servers have been built so as to match the benchmarks of the near future, not merely of the modern day. They're all centered around top–notch CPUs whose speeds and cache memory capacity will meet up with your constantly growing online expectations. You can select among Intel and AMD processors and different Hard disk drive amounts. Additionally, we offer Gbit network cards, so you are able to get the superior files processing data transfer speeds.
Server backup
A simple and reliable way to back up vital information
Having a backup of your data is very important, irrespective of the type of web hosting solution you use. With RatherBe-Me, you can get hold of 50 GB of additional hard drive capacity for off–site backup copies. This way, regardless if you have an issue with the server components, you can use the backed–up files at any time to bring back your websites and applications. Also, you will be able to set automatic backup copies immediately by using the rsync function, in–built every single Linux OS that we provide. A server file backup is integrated by standard with our Optional Managed Services plan.
24/7 Support
A 24x7 help & support system
You can get in touch with us anytime through the ticket system sharing with us any issues that you would have about our dedicated hosting servers. Our helpful and experienced support team is working 24x7, 7 days a week, in case you are looking for help with the Web Site Control Panel or any of the pre–configured free applications. They will go through your issue and respond to you in up to 60–minute.
A Choice of Control Panels
A Control Panel of your preference with each dedicated hosting server
All of our dedicated hosting servers offer an easy way to progress from a shared web hosting system. Each dedicated hosting server provides you with a collection of Control Panels, which means that you may quickly handle your space, online websites and software applications. You are able to choose between the well–acclaimed cPanel, the more complex DirectAdmin and our in–house built, point–and–click Web Site Control Panel, which gives you multi–language support and an option for limitless domain hosting.

The annual Chitwan Elephant Festival in Nepal always brings large crowds to honor South Asia's favorite animal. This year, as this funny video shows, visitors were treated to a football match between two teams of elephants.
That's football in the Nepali sense, meaning soccer, not American football. Thankfully the elephants weren't tackling each other.
The festival has been going on for six years now and is sponsored by the government as a way of promoting tourism. Nope, it's not an age-old cultural treasure like Kumbh Mela, but it's still pretty fun. Chitwan is in southern Nepal and its main tourist attraction is Royal Chitwan National Park, home to many elephants, rhinos, and other wildlife, as you can see in this photo.
Other events included a race, with local champions beating rivals from as far away as Slovakia. Here's a video of that event.

I hope and pray that you are staying healthy – both physically and spiritually. Please let me know if the parish can help you during these difficult times.
Our churches are open for Mass and private prayer and we have worked diligently following guidance from public health authorities to make the environment safe for all.
If you are unable to attend in person, you are no doubt aware that our parish relies on the support of our parishioners to operate – salaries, programs and ongoing operating costs (heating, water, electricity, etc.). These are funded through the generosity of our parish community.
It continues to be a challenge for our parish to maintain operations without the weekly offertory collection. We have benefited greatly from the Canada Employment Wage Subsidy, but that support is scheduled to diminish after September.
Here are the ways that you can continue to support our parish at this time:
If you have any questions please contact the Development Office at the Archdiocese of Toronto, 416-934-3400, ext. 540 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Thank you for your many contributions to our parish community. I'm happy to see people returning to Mass and I pray daily that we will all be able to gather together again soon.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Xavier De Pinto

for Sunday, August 18, 2019
We began with the plight of Jeremiah who was persecuted because he proclaimed the Truth of God. It would have been so much easier for Jeremiah to have kept his prophecy to himself. But as he would protest in chapter 20:
You seduced me, LORD, and I let myself be seduced; you were too strong for me, and you prevailed.
All day long I am an object of laughter;
everyone mocks me.
Whenever I speak, I must cry out,
violence and outrage I proclaim;
The word of the LORD has brought me
reproach and derision all day long.
I say I will not mention him,
I will no longer speak in his name.
But then it is as if fire is burning in my heart,
imprisoned in my bones;
I grow weary holding back, I cannot!
Yes, I hear the whisperings of many:
"Terror on every side!
Denounce! let us denounce him!"
All those who were my friends
are on the watch for any misstep of mine.
"Perhaps he can be tricked; then we will prevail,
and take our revenge on him."
Horrible things happened to Jeremiah, including his being thrown into the cistern as we heard today. But Jeremiah would not reject the burning of God's truth within his bones. It was the cost of discipleship.
The readings then present the Letter to the Hebrews. The author tells these second and third generation Christians to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus and persevere in running the race set before them. Jesus embraced the cross, endured the opposition of sinners and was rewarded by his Father. He did this so we can join Him in enduring the wrath of sinners. The reading also scolds these Christians who were complaining that Christianity was too demanding. It reminds them that they have not yet had to shed their blood. Perhaps they would have to. There is no limit to the cost discipleship imposes on us.
And finally we come to that most difficult Gospel. It starts off wonderfully, as the Lord says, "I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing!" But then the Lord proclaims what the fire of His Love will bring:
"Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. From now on a household of five will be divided, three against two and two against three; a father will be divided against his son and a son against his father,,,,," and so forth.
Jesus tells his disciples, and tells us that there will be a cost of discipleship.
This is not what most people, including me, want to hear. We don't want to hear that choosing Christ will put our lives so at odds with those around us that we will be persecuted, and mocked. We want our religion to be easy. We don't want to have to pay a price for living our faith.
But we have to.
In his great book, The Cost of Discipleship, Dietrick Bonhoeffer makes a distinction between what he calls cheap grace and costly grace. He is not using the term grace as we Catholics do, as something coming from God. He is using it as another word for religion. So I'll insert religion in paraphrasing Bonhoeffer. He says that "cheap religion is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline, communion without confession. Cheap religion is a religion without discipleship, a religion without the cross, a religion without Jesus Christ." Cheap religion, Bonhoeffer says, is to hear the gospel preached as follows: "Of course you have sinned, but now everything is forgiven, so you can stay as you are and enjoy the consolations of forgiveness." The main defect of such a proclamation is that it contains no demand for discipleship."
"In contrast to cheap religion, costly religion confronts us as a gracious call to follow Jesus. It comes as a word of forgiveness to the broken spirit and the contrite heart. It is costly because it compels a man to submit to the yoke of Christ and follow him." He goes on to say, "When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die."
Because we have chosen Christ, we are mocked for believing in God. The pseudo intellectuals of our day treat us as though we are children and disparage the truths of our faith as children's tales. Because we have chosen Christ we are reduced by others to being Jesus freaks. This is part of the cost of discipleship.
Because we have chosen Christ we are confronted with difficult decisions that we need to embrace to be whom we claim to be, People of God. For example: Catholics are pro-life and anti-abortion. This position is easy to hold until your seventeen year old daughter becomes pregnant, or your best friend, or you. Then it becomes a matter of loving that baby more than your plans for the future, or the plans of you had for your daughter or your best friend. The Catholic who says, "I will choose love rather than death," is embracing the cost of discipleship.
Another example: it is easy to fight against substance abuse until you find yourself as one of the few around you who isn't getting drunk, smoking pot or taking some other drug. It is costly to turn away from bad situations and be scorned by others. "You think you are so much better than us," the in-crowd scoffs when we turn away from their immorality. This is just another one of the costs of discipleship.
We embrace the cost of discipleship when you in your marriages, and we priests and religious in our vocations remain committed to our vows in difficult times as well as in easy times. There are no perfect marriages because a marriage is the union of two, normal yet imperfect people. The cost of discipleship demands that you accept each other's limitations and love your spouse even during those days that you don't particularly like him or her. The cost of discipleship demands that those of us who have made vows to God keep those vows even when, especially when, we feel overwhelmed by the needs of our people as well as our own personal wants.
We embrace the cost of discipleship because we are more concerned with others than ourselves. We are more concerned with their eternal salvation than with anything they can do to us in this life.
In the beginning of today's Gospel Jesus says, "I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing!" The fire of God's love. That is what we are about. We know we are loved. We know that God wants others to join us in His Love. If we are truly going to be his disciples, then we will happily join the Lord in setting the world on fire with love. And we will do this no matter what personal cost this entails: For the cost of discipleship is temporary, but the Treasure of God's Love is forever.
Reflections are available for the following Sundays:

UIA NSW Appeal in Full Swing
More than 1700 members of the New South Wales community attended the five functions held recently by the United Israel Appeal.
Keynote speakers included former Israeli ambassador to the United States, Itamar Rabinovich and Kerne-Hayesod World Chairman Moodi Sandberg.
Rabinovich delivered an analysis on the current situation and recent event in the Middle East and speculated on what the future holds for Israel.
Sandberg expressed his deep appreciation to the NSW Community for their ongoing support of Israel through the UIA and spoke about the new partnership between the Israeli government and Keren Hayesod-UIA, working together to fund Israel's national priorities.
He told the audience of when he was sworn in as a Minister for the Government of Israel his father, a holocaust survivor who escaped Nazi Europe, said during the war he would never have been able to imagine one day he would have a son who would be a minister for the Jewish State. Sandberg said nothing in this world is for certain but he believes as long as the gates of Jerusalem stay open the gates of Auschwitz will stay closed – and this is what KH-UIA is all about.
The contributions raised through the UIA go towards supporting the State of Israel's vital needs including saving Jewish life, Aliyah and absorption as well as strengthening Israel's social and geographical periphery through the various projects funded by KH-UIA.

"Cogito Ergo Sum"
Sometimes I wonder when I die, do I just disappear from existence. Does my thought process end? The great philosopher Rene Descartes stated "Cogito Ergo Sum" (I think, therefore I am) to prove his existence. So does the thought process substantiate existence? This would be a good question for the pro-life/pro-choice debate of when life begins. When the thought process ends, does our existence ends? But does it? Enter the soul.
The soul has been called the intangible factor to describe what happens to us after death. Some call it the spark of life, possibly initiating the thought process in the developing fetus; and ending our thoughts with the withdrawal of the soul. But what is this soul? Is it made of matter or energy? Where does it locate in the body? What does it contain?
Some would think the soul would be located in the brain (cerebrum) due to the mental complexity of this area in thinking; but others would say it would be found in the heart region, due to the prime importance of this organ to sustain life. The expression from your innermost heart may allude to the soul's location in the heart.
But what is contained in the soul. Could there be all our characteristic of the individual, and thoughts that make up these characteristics. In essence it is who we are. The soul is said to have been pure when mankind was created, but evil thoughts (greed, arrogance, and self love) have permeated the soul, imbuing the soul with these negative characteristics, resulting in our negative attitudes and beliefs.
It is this soul, with all our information that is thought to leave our bodies when our physical bodies cease to function. From a physical perspective our thought process ends with our death, resulting in our nonexistence and departure of the soul. But where does the soul go?
This soul is said to require a mind to grow and mature (become pure). Many believe that further growth will occurs in the grasp of God's mind in heaven. Others believe we come back, returning in the developing mind of a fetus. Some believe in a combination, eventually culminating in a joyous life in heaven or heaven on earth.

This post about decorating candles got pinned and captioned improperly a whole bunch on Pinterest, but it turns out that there actually are real working instructions.
Contrary to weird Pinterest captions, you do not draw on the wax paper, or draw on the candle, or draw a design backwards and then iron it on, or any of that other stupid shit.
The blog post clearly instructs you to draw the design on tissue paper, just the way you want it to appear (not mirrored). Sounded easy enough, so I gathered my materials.
First, I taped a piece of tissue paper about the size of my candle to a piece of regular paper. This step is only so the design won't bleed through the tissue paper onto, like, your kitchen table or your pants. You're welcome.
The blog post then tells you to go find some cute kids to draw a design on your paper. I don't have any cute kids, but I am resourceful, so I recruited my husband.
(Yes, the scenic view from our living room is of dumpsters. You get used to it.)
Guess what he drew.
So I cut out the design and prepared to adhere it to the candle.
Here's the step where it got creative on Pinterest. Despite what you may have seen in the caption of this pin, here is what you really do: You place the tissue paper on the candle where you want it to go. You wrap a piece of wax paper around the whole thing. You heat it with a heat gun.
So I did that, except I didn't have a heat gun. I panicked momentarily, but then I realized I have a heated implement which blows hot air, and it was probably close enough.
I crossed my fingers and blasted the candle for half a minute or so with heat from my very old and relatively cheap hair dryer. Ok, well, I didn't really cross my fingers because my damn hands were full. It's a figure of speech, people. Jeez.
And you know what? It worked! The tissue paper (the whole chunk of it, not just the ink) adhered to the candle! Amazeballs.
And now I have this lovely gift for someone very special… I just have to decide who… Maybe a teenager. I could incorporate an object lesson about the dangers of unprotected sex, and then light the candle and say, "Now do you want your penis to feel like it's on fire? No? Then use condoms."
And all of Sonja's nephews lived happily ever after. The end.

So hilarious! You're the best!
I'm seriously laughing 1/2 hour after originally seeing this!
Pingback: DIY Candle Designs | Pintester
CUTE idea!!! thanks for sharing!!! Although, I can't believe she used the drawing her husband had drawn. Surely she knows what everyone is gonna think it looks like.. I would've made him draw something else.
I remember in the 80's my mom went to a craft party where they used party napkins, glue and glitter to make decorated candles. This seems so much easier! I just may have to recruit my kids to draw me something…
bahaha I showed my husband and he laughed. SUCH a man thing to do. Love it!
well, there a new twist for bachelorette gifts
LOL.. Loved it, made sure to show this one to the hubby, he laughed also! Lesson learned from this, never let hubby draw for me. ;)
I did not expect the language and crudeness of this crafting blog. Bad taste!
Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive
a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views.
I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
Just wondering what happens once you use it? Would the design melt quicker or slower or something else? Also would I be able to use something else other then wax paper like baking paper? Cause I don't even know where I can get wax paper from
I almost got busted at work from laughing so hard.. Thanks..
omg. hilarious! thanks <3
will it work with colored tissue paper as well as colored candles? or does it have to be white tissue paper and white candle?

No credit card required.
I'd like to discuss making the switch.
Tell us a bit about yourself, and we'll tell you a lot more about us.
We use Tovuti to provide content to our customers in a much more effective and efficient way. We create courses, have a library of clinical resources, host webinars, and have a customer forum page. These improvements in sharing information and communicating more effectively with our customers have led to improve knowledge and proficiency of use with our medical device.
The support that I receive, and continue to receive from Tovuti is above and beyond what I could have expected. I really appreciate the personalization of the software to my organizations' needs and the ease of toggles to turn on and off the desired features. Also, the entire team is open to recommendations about how to improve the system to better meet their customer's needs.
The Tovuti team was great to get it setup. Tovuti has more features than I know what to do with.
Tovuti enables easy integration of content and tools. Their designers understand that many academics use their learning management system more out of necessity and institutional policy, than from desire or enjoyment. For this reason, their team made it simple to use and easy to adapt alongside third-party tools and services. Gamification along with recognition badges add a human touch. Teaching and training is stressful. Investing in this education technology has made my job a lot easier.
Ability to be stood up quickly and continue to evolve as we build out. We were up and running the same day we signed the paperwork (just for basic functions and a quiz/survey but up and running none the less). The ability to fully customize the platform to mimic our own website is a big plus also!
The main value of Tovuti is the "all-in-one" package as not only a Learning Management System, but also contains the student, event, course/lesson and content management components, but also has a standard payment interface and allows for multiple brands from the instance. But most importantly, they have the embedded virtual classroom, which ties the student experience into one neat and tight package.

It's been a rough week.
My pain level went from about an 8 on a scale from 1 to 10 to somewhere around 12 and decided to hang out there.
Paperwork and red tape and circuitous logic from the insurance companies I'm dealing with is making my head swim, and believe me my head is swimming enough with some of the medication they've got me on.
All of this with the book deadline approaching, and a return to the day job looming on the not so far away horizon.
Thee honest truth? I need to be on a beach somewhere. Like, for the rest of my life. But I don't get that life I get this one, and once I'm over this hump I'll make the most of it. It's just slow going right now.
Thanks for listening to me whine. I promise, we'll get back to our regularly scheduled programming soon.

This morning I got up with the sparrows and headed to the launch of National Bacon Week (12–19 May).
I had good reason - the smiling 4Fourteen, all-girl kitchen brigade lead by Head Chef Carla Jones was dishing up Australia's most expensive bacon and egg roll - and I had to try one!
It costs $120 and contains the national bacon winner (the full rasher from Slade Point Meats in Mackay) as well as a duck egg cooked in truffle butter, roasted foie gras, 18-month cave-aged cheddar, shaved truffle, smoked truss tomatoes and a crème fraîche and caviar dressing, all bundled up into a brioche bun.
It's mighty fine, but I don't think I'll be going back for a heart-stopping second roll...
The other national winner, Stapleton's Meats, is a Gymea butcher. Lauren Murdoch is putting his short rasher to the test in the 3 Weeds kitchen, coming up a more reasonably priced fifteen-buck roll. My money's on Paul Cooper from Bishop Sessa who has made his own Wessex Saddleback maple bacon, teaming it with a slow cooked duck egg, house-made brown sauce and shaved black truffles on brioche. It'll set you back $35.
Now while we're talking crisp, tasty rashers did you know two thirds of the bacon we consume here in Australia is made from imported, foreign pig? If you'd like to make sure you're supporting Aussie farmers, buy bacon with the pink PorkMark label.

In July 2015, a London art group devoted 100 cameras to members of the city's homeless population.
The organisation, called Cafe Art, is dedicated to empowering those affected by homelessness to express themselves through arts and photography.
For their latest project, different groups distributed 100 disposable cameras to homeless Londoners along with some basic photography training politenes of the Royal Photographic Society.
Photographers was requested to take photos centered around the theme "My London."
Of the 100 cameras, 80 were returned and approximately 2,500 photos were processed. Of those, 20 photos were selected to be included in an upcoming 2016 calendar.
The group has been putting out calendars since 2012, and they have raised virtually $70,000 in the process.
All money created from calendar marketings is reinvested back into the project to cover publish expenses, to pay the photographers, to buy art supplyings, and to cover the cost of class.
The 2016 calendar preorders are underway on the group's Kickstarter page.
Just days after launch, they'd more than doubled their target of a little more than $7,000. Once the calendar is released on Oct. 12( two days after World Homelessness Day ), it'll sell for $15.40.
More than 7,500 people in London slept on the streets during 2014 -2 015.
Across England, around 112,000 people reported having battled homelessness. While these numbers are relatively low compared to, say, New York City, which find its homeless population made a record high of more than 59, 000 people earlier this year, it's not the number that are important but the people who make it up.
Homelessness can stigmatize and dehumanize this vulnerable population.
By insight into their lives, Cafe Art helps fight stigma surrounding the homeless population.
When we're able to see the world through someone else's eyes, we can better empathize with what they're going through. By an outlet for a marginalized group in this case, people experiencing homelessness Cafe Art is helping to connect them to a world in which they might not feel welcome.

| 11.4°C Belfast
A 14-year-old girl was among a number of young teenagers targeted by a sinister social media account posing as a Northern Ireland modelling agency.
Using the image messaging app Snapchat, the fake ACA Models account sent messages direct to teenagers and young women.
The recipients were told they could earn anywhere between £450 and £55,000 by working for the model and promotions company.
Alison Campbell, the agency's boss, was alerted to the fake account on Saturday, after her friend's daughter received a message.
And she stressed that her company does not recruit models online.
The Snapchat profile claimed to be from 'Louise' who said she worked as head of recruitment for ACA Models agency.
"The reason I have added you, is because after looking at least one of your Instagram photos we have decided that you are suitable to model for our agency," the message said.
"We are offering between £450 and £55,000 a shoot depending on who we put you forward for.
"In terms of different types of modelling we literally do every single type you could think of. Obviously the more you are interested in the better chance you have of getting jobs.
"This is a one-off opportunity and we are looking for 30 new models. This is purely based on a first come, first served basis.
"If you are interested, then please give me a message asap.
"Bear in mind the reason why we have added you to our company Snapchat account is because we are interested in you as well."
Former Miss Northern Ireland and ACA model, Leanne McDowell, issued a warning online not to accept messages from the fake account.
Many of the messages were sent in the early hours of Saturday morning and encouraged the teens and women to send pictures of themselves.
Miss Campbell also posted a warning on the official ACA Models Facebook page.
"I started getting lots of private messages from people asking if we were recruiting on Snapchat," she said. "Then I got a message from a 14-year-old girl asking if we were taking on new models through the app, as she had been asked to join.
"The young girl wrote back saying she was interested and that she would love to be a model and has always been interested.
"The person wrote back asking for some pictures of her and she sent some head pictures.
"The person replied and said they would like to see some body pictures.
"Fortunately she alerted her mum to the account after that.
"It's very dangerous. We definitely don't contact people through social media or send any alerts to any random people.
"It's happened in the past - people have been in Belfast city and went up to people saying they were from ACA Models and were scouting and asked for details."

Home Free Spells Links
This is a voodoo spell of torment and pain that is a part of black magic spell casting. This free magic spell will be using black magic when cast upon someone for the purpose or torment and pain. Please be careful when using black magic spells as you will eventually be expected to pay for the actions in which you have choosen to take. We offer many free magic black magic spells for your spell casting purposes.
Light two black candles on the alter you have worked up the negative energy and your anger has built... take the Voodoo doll and visualize with intensity that it is your enemy before you. You may even cut out the face on a picture of your victim and glue it to the head of the Voodoo doll. If you have any nail clippings or hair follicles or any small item that has the victims vibration on it, you can place it inside the Voodoo doll. That will make it a much stronger connection and all the more powerful. Once you have worked up the negative energy and your anger has drawn near its boiling point... slam it to the alter and stab one time at the doll in the place where you wish to afflict pain. Then take another pin if you so desire and prick the doll once again in a place where you wish to afflict more pain. Each time you stab at the Voodoo doll make sure you are visualizing that you are actually inflicting pain on your enemy. Do not touch the pins after you have placed them. While doing this, recite the following incantation....
"Smitten, battered, beaten, torn
I prick at thee as if a thorn
Suffer now I will not wait
With this pin I seal your fate
Pins so sharp and made of steel
I strike at thee, these pins you'll feel
Smitten, battered, beaten, torn
I curse you now, your pain is born!"
You may repeat this again for a few days if you wish... adding more pins and leaving the pins that are already there alone. Do not touch the pins after you have placed them. Once again, if you touch any of the pins after they have been placed, the Curse will come back on you.

My journey with action research began with attending a postgraduate certificate in higher education (PGCHE) at the University of Pretoria in South Africa. The programme coordinator, Pieter du Toit, built the programme around the use of action research as the inextricable component of educational professional development. During this programme I reached a number of professional insights which led to a shift in my professional activities from an external focus of academic programme development of my school within the university to an internal focus on my own professional development as an academic. The logical step in my own development was to embark on a doctoral journey. My living theory journey allowed me to combine my own understandings and development as a person and an academic, my professional background in public health and my concern that despite public health being poorly presented and poorly perceived in the undergraduate medical curriculum the status quo remained unchallenged. In particular my two values of care and agency are the foundation for all my work in this area.
My professional and academic journey was one that started in clinical nursing (BCur degree) continued in public health (Master of Public Health) after international exposure in Europe and stood still doing the academic programme coordination for a school of public health in South Africa. The impetus for my change was the PGCHE that reminded me of my motivation for joining the school (academic pursuits and not administrative tasks). In this period I also met Jean McNiff and Jack Whitehead who presented a living theory workshop at an action research conference in South Africa and I never looked back. Now with my doctorate in higher education I still work for the same school of public health, but it is as a transformed practitioner in a transforming school.
My life in numbers can be summarised as clinical work (8 years), volunteer work at the World Health Organisation (3 years), programme coordination and academic (6 years) and academic (7 years). I have expanded my interest in medical education and teach both on a regional medical education/research fellowship programme (SAFRI) as well as on the PGCHE on a voluntary basis. My interest in the scholarship of action research is reflected in my activities in the African Journal for Health Professions Education (AJHPE) where I am an associate editor and – more importantly – as a reviewer for e-JOLTS.

How to Get the Most out of Cloud Storage – Digital Connect's Top Tips
Technology can be a blessing and a curse. One the one hand, it's easier than ever to safely store your data and files, and when it comes to business it's the data systems that forms the heart of everything. However, our increased reliance on technology of this sort means that if something is to go wrong within that all-important system, everything grinds to a halt until the problem is resolved.
It should go without saying that backing up data is vital to your business, whether you're in a small or medium sized organisation or part of an enormous corporation. However, studies have revealed that 35% of small to medium sized businesses had no data protection plan in place at all. So, here's are some quick tips on data backup for smaller businesses and startups.
1. What should be backed up?
This is largely dependent on your business, but there are certain documents and data that universally needs to be backed up. So, financial documents, employee details, client data and core information of this type should always be backed up. Ensure that you understand exactly what needs to be backed up before doing so.
2. How often should my data be backed up?
Backing up data are regular intervals is one of the best ways to safeguard yourself against the worst. Third party services like Landmark Technologies can provide you with physical and cloud backup solutions every few months, and will store the data on your behalf in multiple backup sites for additional security.
3. Does any data need to be encrypted/password protected?
Not all data needs to be protected in this way, but again it is context-sensitive. For instance, if you work with vulnerable people and only certain employees are allowed to access their information, encryption prevents the spreading of sensitive information and puts you at risk of legal recourse.
4. How do I do this?
It's easy enough; most systems already have an encryption function ready for you to use. What matters is that you pick a suitably strong password. A weaker password leaves you vulnerable to hackers, so a strong combination of letters and numbers, capitals and lower case, is the best way to go.
5. What if something goes wrong?
Sometimes accidents happen, and in the event of something going wrong the best thing to do is to keep calm and call your service provider. They will have a variety of services available to help you recover any lost data and get you back up and running as soon as possible.

Other than sticking with my go to Foundation combo (Bourjois 123 Perfect + Clinique Beyond Perfecting), my face powders and additional creams are always changing, and I'm constantly adding and interchanging new gems in the collection. This time of year I find myself adding a few more creams to the line-up as to not make my face too matte or dry looking; but I still have some of my go-to powders partnered with Mac's Fix+ for that extra dewiness. What I love about winter makeup is how you can afford to make the layers slightly thicker, and play around with concealer/foundation/powder combinations to achieve a flawless finish. I can't wait to explore more! What is your winter line-up like?
The new powder party: I am such a huge fan of Rimmel London and their classically gorgeous kits and products for flawless makeup. Another genius product with frequent collaborator Kate Moss, the Sculpting Palette by Kate* is the easiest way to do the last three step finish quick and simple. I love the concept of all three products being easily applied, and the highlight is probably my favourite part. For just under £7 you're getting a simple, handy compact palette with everything you'll need.
The Concealer: I have a lot to say as regards to my current concealer of choice. Recently I got a sample of the Taste Shape Tape Concealer and I was in shock. Not only did I realise why its sold out everywhere and probably the most raved about concealer since Nars' Creamy Concealer came out; but it's Tarte's concealer that shocked me when compared to my Urban Decay Naked Skin. I now find the Naked Skin concealer has hardly any coverage and it's a little watery/thin in comparison to some of the best out there! For now I'll stick with this, but I definitely will be changing it soon.
The Sleek holy-grails: By now you'll know I am a Sleek Makeup obsessive, and I'm always adding more of their products to my collection. My current go-to's include; Life's A Peach Blusher, a gorgeous subtle peach blush; Face Contour Kit, you've seen this many times before, it's a must have; and the newest addition my baby, the Precious Metals Highlight Palette. I've talked a lot about the first two palettes, but Precious Metals being the latest Sleek addition, I've not said much to date. I absolutely adore this palette, its colours are perfect for me, and so many other skin tones and preferences. I use the powder shades to highlight my cheek bones, cupids bow and on the brow bone. The cream highlight can also be used for those things, but I love to use them for my inner corner and it stays all day!
On the subject of pressed powders, I have my usual Sephora 8h Mattifying Powder for a clean, effortless finish to the skin. I usually set my whole face with this powder, and add a little extra under the eyes to set my concealer. During winter, I like to stick with a light layer of this rather than baking because I don't want to dry my skin out. This powder works perfectly with a number of settings sprays, I'm a Mac Fix+ junkie but NYX's dewy finish spray is a great guaranteed set for your makeup with a dewy finish that doesn't dry your skin out. All in all this powder is perfect for everything I need this season.
What are your current face powder/creams line-up? Use of any of mine?

Graphing calculator handles calculus, engineering, trigonometric, and financial functions

Texas instruments ti-84 plus silver edition review
Introducing a new type of calculator, that makes mathematics easy. The ordinary calculator has a limited functionality while a computer is too large and complex to carry for ordinary mathematical problems. The Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus Silver Edition Graphing Calculator, is a specialized calculator that is specifically designed to make mathematics easier and faster to compute. The calculate has graphical capabilities which is unique to many scientific calculators.
The calculator has the ability to handle calculus, engineering calculations, trigonometry and financial functions. It is designed for professionals across the board. The multiple function calculator is designed to make work easier for working out any calculations that would need specialized equipment. Better still, it has an advanced way of displaying the results.
Ease of use 4/5
When assessing the ease of use of the calculator, it should be compared to the functions that the calculator does. Form the many functions that the calculator has, it is pretty easy to use. First, it has a graphical display interface. That means that you can get to view the graphs, the equations, and any other form of result that the mathematical solution gives. At a glance you can see the results and interpret it. The design of the calculate separates the button based on their functions. You can easily set a unction that will work with your calculation using the upper buttons then the lower buttons will be configured to the particular parameter of use. It has a file sharing ability through its USB and allows display of the values through a split screen for easy reference.
Durability 3/5
The materials used to make the calculator guarantees that you get a durable product. The casing is made of turgid plastic that has the ability to protect the internal features of the calculator from extreme conditions and weather. However, its turgidity makes it unable to absorb shock. If the calculator falls on the ground be rest assured that it will probably crack or the internal parts of the device will break. The calculator is not water resistant. It can get destroyed if it falls into water. A better material would make the product more effective and durable.
Accuracy 4/5
When it comes to assessing a calculator, the accuracy matters a lot. This is not a compute but its multiple functionalities make it among the best calculators that you will ever find in the market. It comes with 21 aps that are pre-loaded. Among the aps that you will find in the calculator include Cabri Jr., Graphing apps, apps for Inequality Graphing, apps that support unctions such as Probability Simulations, apps with accurate Science Tools, apps with StudyCards,and Transformation Graphing. These apps are known or their accuracy when it comes to computing mathematical equations and calculations.
Power 4/5
When you are get a portable electronic device then the issue of power cannot be ignored. The portability of the device should be interpreted in the context of the power that it is able to store and the functions that you can assess. The calculator like other calculators uses AAA batteries. The batteries support all the functions and can last the calculate for more than three months of average use. The apps that are used in the calculator and its other electronic functions use minimal energy for their functions. This enables it to be able to support various uses with the small portable AAA batteries that are installed inside.
Customer support 3/5
The calculator comes with a one year warranty. Other than that, there is no other significant customer support that comes with the product. More should have been done in terms of availability of parts and availability of repair centers in the event of breakdown. The support centers are also not well distributed to meet all the customers that exists in various parts of the globe.
Overall rating 4/5
The Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus Silver Edition gets an overall rating of 4/5. The product is good enough to serve its use which is offering extensive calculations that are accurate. It is also portable making it ideal for professionals who are mobile. The energy use of the product meets all its functions and the format of display makes it easy to use. The fact that the calculator can be synchronized with a computer and even have some Apps added to its makes it versatile for use. It is the ideal companion for any technical expert or student.

Liberal billionaire George Soros gave former Vice President Al Gore's environmental group millions of dollars over three years to create a "political space for aggressive US action" on global warming, according to leaked documents.
A document published by DC Leaks shows Soros, a Hungarian-born liberal financier, wanted his nonprofit Open Society Institute (OSI) to do more to support global warming policies in the US. That included budgeting $10 million in annual support to Gore's climate group over three years.
"US Programs Global Warming Grants US Programs became engaged on the global warming issue about four years ago, at George Soros's suggestion," reads a leaked OSI memo.
"There has been a budget of $11 million for global warming grants in the US Programs budget for the last several years," the memo reads. "This budget item captures George Soros's commitment of $10 million per year for three years to Al Gore's Alliance for Climate Protection, which conducts public education on the climate issue in pursuit of creating political space for aggressive US action in line with what scientists say is necessary to put our nation on a path to reducing its outsize carbon dioxide emissions."

Information Notice No. 81-06: Failure of ITE Model K-600 Circuit Breaker
SSINS No.: 6835 Accession No.: 8011040269 IN 81-06 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION OFFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 March 11, 1981 Information Notice No. 81-06: FAILURE OF ITE MODEL K-600 CIRCUIT BREAKER Purpose: The purpose of this information notice is to provide early notification of a matter that could adversely affect the safety of nuclear power plants. Toward this end, this information notice alerts holders of operating licenses and construction permits of a possibly generic deficiency involving Model K-600 circuit breakers manufactured by ITE. Description of Circumstance: By letter dated February 20, 1981, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District informed us that, while performing preventive maintenance on electrical circuit breakers at its Rancho Seco facility, an ITE Model K-600 breaker was observed not to trip. An investigation revealed that a tripping coil wire had slipped out of its terminal. Further examinations revealed that the coil wire size was AWG 20, whereas the mating lug was sized for AWG 16-14 wire. A check of other ITE electrical breakers indicated that the problem may be generic. Subsequent to the letter, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District informed us orally that ITE Model K-1600 breakers have the same deficiency and that Model K-3000 breakers may be similarly affected. The information provided by the Sacramento Municipal Utility District is preliminary and will be followed by a complete report. Consequently, we have not yet evaluated the safety significance of this event. Nevertheless, the information herein is being provided as an early notification of a possibly significant event. Although no specific action or response is requested at this time, recipients should review the information for possible applicability to their facilities. If NRC evaluations so indicate, further licensee actions may be requested. If you have any question regarding the information contained herein, please contact the Director of the appropriate NRC Regional Office. Attachment: Recently issued IE Information Notices

You can listen to a 10-minute conversation I had with Mike and Sarah (along with special guest Ted Appel) on my BAM! Radio Show. You can also find a list of, and links to, previous shows here.
Part Two's contributors were Cindi Rigsbee, Carol Pelletier Radford, Dr. Jenny Grant Rankin, Jennie Farnell and Ken Lindblom.
We finish up the series today with responses from Rebecca Schmidt, Madeline Whitaker Good, Katherine Whitaker, Ann Hoover, Jon Harper, and Otis Kriegel. I've also included comments from readers.
Response From Rebecca Schmidt
Rebecca Schmidt has been a teacher and school counselor for 28 years. She has published 11 books including a first and second edition of Don't Gossip in the Teacher's Lounge (Rowman & Littlefield, 2017). Currently, Rebecca is an elementary school counselor in Mayfield City Schools in Mayfield Heights, Ohio:
One day, I was sitting in the lounge eating lunch with a new teacher. This new teacher began discussing the "horrible" behavior of one of her students. A woman who was substituting in the building was eating lunch at the end of the table. The woman said, "Please stop! That child you're talking about is my grandson."
Sometimes, beginning teachers want to "fit-in" and so they try to do that by sharing information that is negative or should be kept confidential. Sometimes, they get caught up in gossiping about colleagues or students.
If you talk about kids, families or other staff members, in the lounge, or anywhere, the news will get out that you are unprofessional and not to be trusted. If you gossip, the news will most likely get back to the person. If a colleague of yours feels at all insecure, he/she could be one of those people who cannot wait to share any gossip they heard from you. It is human nature - people like to be the bearers of important news. It doesn't matter whether the news is good or bad, but that it is "big" news so your colleagues may share with others the negative things you have shared with them. As a new teacher, you should not trust that if you say, "Let's keep this between us" or "Don't let this leave this room", that it won't!
As a new teacher, you don't know who knows what family or who is related to whom. Not only is it extremely unethical and unprofessional to speak negatively about a child or colleague, it is also a good way to get into trouble with the principal. The principal may hear about the gossip and, many may even agree with it, but you probably will be called in to discuss your professionalism.
Advice for New Teachers
When someone begins to talk about a child in the lounge, just smile and change the subject as delicately as possible. A good line may be, "Oh, I don't want to interrupt your lunch by talking about that." If you are both working with the child and the information is for the success of the child you can say, "I'll stop by your room after school and we can discuss it."
Even if they begin to talk or gossip, leave the room, sit silently, etc. If a colleague or parent talks about another teacher, just try to change the subject or say something like, "Wow, that doesn't sound like her." Or, "I have never had that experience when dealing with her." Don't ever put yourself in a situation where you walk away from a conversation and worry whether or not you said too much or whether certain information you shared will get back to the child, their family or a colleague.
When speaking to a parent, there is NEVER a good reason to share negative or confidential information about another child or colleague. Always remember, never say anything about a child you would not say if their parents and lawyer were sitting right there!
You work in an environment where gossip can be overwhelming sometimes. Just be safe and don't say anything negative about anyone!
Leave gossip for tabloids and reality shows.
Response From Madeline Whitaker Good & Katherine Whitaker
Madeline Whitaker Good has taught elementary and middle school, and is currently a middle school teacher in Springfield, Missouri. Katherine Whitaker has taught middle and high school, and is currently a high school teacher in Kansas City, MO. They are co-authors of Your First Year:
"Find Your Voice"
We feel like the biggest mistake new teachers make is something that they don't even realizing is happening. Beginning educators are assailed with trainings, coursework, and social media posts that create images of who teachers are "supposed" to be. Although there are commonalities that all great teachers possess, many new teachers don't realize that learning who they are as educators is just as important as learning best practices. No matter what some educational leaders, researchers, and policy makers say, you can have two phenomenal teachers next door to each other that teach in entirely different ways. Since there are so many different types of effective teachers, we have to encourage those new to the field to discover who they are as they begin developing their teaching skills.
During a teacher's first year, he or she doesn't know the curriculum and will most likely fumble through the murky waters of classroom management, so many new educators choose to mimic what they see done in another teacher's room, which is something we both personally did. This is how most new teachers survive during the beginning of their careers. It is a good strategy to implement because it is much easier than starting from scratch, plus you may learn a few new techniques that work for you. The problem, though, is that if you never adapt how you run your classroom based on your own personality and strengths, you run the risk of getting burnt out, feeling like a fraud, and seriously questioning why you chose teaching in the first place. Therefore, as new teachers navigate their way through new curriculum, complicated school dynamics, and the vortex that is classroom management, we want them to never forget that developing a teaching style is a process that takes time, but an important one that must be prioritized. That time invested will be more than worth it when you know that your teaching fully reflects who you truly are.
Response From Ann Hoover
Ann Hoover is an American born and trained educator who started her career teaching at the Duke School for Children in the 1990s. She is currently studying at the University of Canterbury and working as a Resource Teacher of Learning and Behaviour in Thames, New Zealand:
The biggest mistake all teachers make is being negative. Negativity is soul destroying. Always be positive and build strong relationships. Effective teachers follow these three important steps.
The first step is to love your students. John Hattie calls it 'know thy learner.' Know your students, know what they like, know their families, know each student's strengths and challenges. As a teacher you must build a relationship with each of your students, especially the most challenging student in the class. You have to know the most about your challenging student(s). Dig deep and find out what really motivates them. Go APE - Accumulate Positive Exchanges. Students often forget the content you taught them, but they never forget how you make them feel. Read Haim Ginott's quote on the climate of the classroom at least once a week. Listen to your students and they will tell you what they need. Know your students and be inclusive of different cultures, values, ideas, and needs.
The second step is to love your content. Make your lessons fun. Show passion for what you are teaching. Make sure that your lessons are lessons that you would have enjoyed. Since all students are not going to learn in the same way, make sure you use multiple ways to engage your learners - for example let them learn from texts, youtube clips, through experiments, and through experience. Give them opportunities to show that they understand the content in multiple ways - let them write a song, build something, draw, make a video. Be creative and give your students feedback quickly.
The third step is to love yourself. Give yourself a break. There is always more to do when you are a teacher. When you are in an airplane, the flight attendant always tells you to put the oxygen mask on first, then help others. Make sure you look after yourself and celebrate your success. To stay positive tell yourself all the good things you are doing instead of focussing on mistakes. Be positive. Teaching is the hardest, most rewarding job in the world.
Response From Jon Harper
Jon Harper is currently the assistant principal at Sandy Hill Elementary and Vienna Elementary School. He was a Nationally Board Certified elementary teacher for ten years and a Math Coach for five. He is passionate about inspiring others to worry less about their mistakes and he shares this passion in his writing and on his podcast My Bad:
Nothing can adequately prepare new teachers for having their very own class. It is difficult. It is stressful. And it is exhausting. They start off thinking they have all the answers and by the end of the first month new teachers begin to wonder if you know anything at all. I have been there myself and it is not a fun place to be. But in my twenty years as a classroom teacher, math coach and assistant principal, I have observed three major mistakes that new teachers make. I also have a few ideas on how to help.
First, new teachers often start off focusing on ways to improve their practice. And that is great! But the danger with this comes when that is the only thing that they focus on. In other words, new teachers might go through a day and have ten things that go well and two that don't. Unfortunately, we know what happens next. They get home and they dwell on the things that didn't go well and completely forget about their successes.
I believe it is okay to reflect on our practice. It's how we improve. We can't allow them to focus exclusively on what didn't work. We must remind them to also remember what went well. Actually, take time to sit down and make a list. I think what they'll will find is that they're doing a lot better than they give themselves credit for.
Next, I think that new teachers are often too embarrassed or ashamed to ask for help. They believe it makes them appear as if they don't know what they're doing or that they aren't qualified. Baloney!!! I get it because I used to be one of those teachers and then I realized something. Nobody knows it all and educators don't bite.
So, I started asking for help. And you know what happened? I got it. What we often forget is that educators enjoy helping each other. They enjoy it when you go to them for help. It makes them feel good about themselves. Furthermore, when we ask for help it inspires others to do the same.
Finally, new teachers, and veterans, often feel as if they must be perfect. Social media has allowed us to see everyone's best. Seeing everyone's "highlight reel" can be very intimidating. It becomes too easy to compare ourselves to what we see. Yet, what we don't see is just as important, if not more important.
We must realize that the educators whose books we read and whose videos we watch, make mistakes just like us. How do I know? They come on my podcast My Bad each week and tell me. More specifically, guests come on and share a big mistake that they made during their career. Some of their mistakes will blow you away. I don't want to give anything away, but I think once you hear what these amazing educators did, or didn't do, you will begin to feel a little bit better about your own mistakes. At least I hope so.
Being a teacher is one of the toughest jobs there is. Being a new teacher? Even tougher. But I believe if we can convince them to believe in themselves, ask questions and stop trying to be perfect, then I think we will have done a good thing.
Response From Otis Kriegel
Otis Kriegel is the author of Starting School Right: How do I plan for a successful first week in my classroom? (ASCD). Kriegel has taught elementary and middle school students for 15 years. He has taught in dual language (Spanish/English and German/English), monolingual, and integrated coteaching classrooms. Connect with him on Twitter @mynameisotis:
Where do I start? I made so many mistakes as a new teacher I wrote an entire book about it. But one mistake stands out the most: Diving into curriculum to soon.
I have seen teacher after teacher want to dig their rookie teeth into the meat of a subject before they have established the guidelines and routines that create a sense of classroom community. How can a teacher begin a math lesson when two kids need to go to the bathroom but they don't know if they are simply allowed to leave the room, grab a bathroom pass or just hold it? How can a teacher conduct any lesson if students don't know what the guidelines are to contribute? Do they raise their hand or a finger? How should the new teacher get everyone's attention? By yelling, "Quiet!"?
Think of traffic. We teach young children that red means stop and green means go. Then they can cross the street safely and everyone can conduct themselves in a manner in which we all cooperate to get where we need to go. But what if no one knew that simple rule? If no one knows the rules then it will be pure chaos.
I encourage new teachers to take time to develop a sense of structure in the classroom in the first few weeks. Yes, start to teach but use the curriculum you introduce as a means to set up the classroom community, not to prepare for the next test.

The DiFACTO Edge
At DiFACTO, we understand very well that customers have a choice of other companies when deciding on their automation partner. Therefore, we have built our business philosophy on a simple premise: "Satisfy the customers' needs and the business will automatically follow."
Market Leadership: DiFACTO was the 1st company in India to offer "Robot Engineering Services" - i.e. services for the successful implementation of industrial robots. At the time when DiFACTO started operations (January 2007), there were companies offering turnkey robot-based automation solutions. However, DiFACTO felt that there was a need for a specialized company offering pure robot-based automation services - to not only help customers with new automation investments, but also to enable customers optimize the use of their existing automation solutions equipment. Many times, manufacturing companies under-utilise their existing facilities, due to product/process changes, production constraints, inadequate training on automation systems, insufficient documentation, etc. There is a huge opportunity to employ the specialized services that DiFACTO offers to plan, design and implement robot-based automation systems. DiFACTO has been a leader in the field of industrial robotic application engineering services and several prestigious companies are DiFACTO's clients.

How do I turn on the high beams?
The high beams give your vehicle added visibility when it is dark out. To turn them on, push the turn signal lever (protruding from the left side of the steering wheel) forward until it clicks into place. A light will illuminate on the instrument panel to confirm that the high beams are on. To return to the low beams, pull the lever back to its original position. Tip Never use the high beams when you are around other vehicles, as they can impair the visibility of surrounding drivers.

Permit of Solitude
12-year-old Christopher Hagedorn wanted to be an astronaut. He prepared for this pursuit for more than 30 years, including degrees in Geological Science and Geotechnical Engineering, and two rounds of NASA applications. Eventually, he redirected his passion, expertise and love for remote exploration by starting Get In The Wild.
He guides canyoneering groups in Southeastern Utah, including the San Rafael Swell, Goblin Valley State Park and the remote Robbers Roost area — which might be more like Mars than any other place on earth.
In this video, Hagedorn leads a group through the Robbers Roost/Dirty Devil Wilderness area, where vast red rock wilderness carved by wind, water and time has left a primitive maze of canyons that offer unique opportunities for visitors to disconnect from modern-day hustle and reconnect with nature.
Go with a Guide
The Robbers Roost/Dirty Devil Wilderness area is incredibly remote. The Dirty Devil River winds for more than 90 miles through a labyrinth of red-rock canyons surrounded by some of the most rugged wilderness landscapes of the American Southwest. This area includes remnants from historic inhabitants including early Fremont People and even Butch Cassidy and the Wildbunch Gang (Read: In Search of Robbers Roost).
This area is extremely remote and requires four-wheel drive and high-clearance, as well as technical canyoneering knowledge. This area is also prone to flashflooding. (Read: Canyoneering How-to) All the factors combine to make a guided canyoneering adventure the best choice. Find a guide

FX has agreed to take Kurt Sutter's Sons Of Anarchy spin-off for a spin, ordering a pilot for the series that has yet to find its lead. Mayans MC will center on EZ Reyes, a Mayans prospect who will juggle "his personal life," seeking "revenge against a Mexican drug cartel," and whatever hazing the club throws at him. The search for an actor to play EZ is ongoing, but Edward James Olmos recently joined the cast as his father, Felipe, a "once-strong patriarch."
Now Deadline reports that a Fast & Furious alum has rolled up to the production: John Ortiz, who costarred in two installments of the Vin Diesel-powered franchise. Ortiz will play the president of the Mayans MC South Padre chapter, Esai "Taino" Osorio. Taino grew up with his cousin Marcus, who became the founder and National President of Mayans MC, and they're both as "smart as [they are] deadly."
Sutter co-created the series with Elgin James, and the two will executive produce it for FX. No word yet on when Mayans MC is expected to premiere.

Houston, we got a problem with encoding synchronous AV with float frame rates and NVEnc.
NVEnc only accepts natural number frame rate arguments, yet input videos come for whatever reasons (not my field) with fractional number fps.
Try the following:
Input: muxed AV,
video frame rate: 29.976 (24000/1001)
video length == audio length
Encoder NVEnc, Format H.265, settings default
video frame rate: 29, the encoder only accepts integers and presumably truncated/floored the input value. D'oh!
video length > audio length
So the re-coded video runs slightly slower than the original one. Video and sound will increasingly lose sync over playtime.
Suggested workaround: pass the container multiplexer the correct frame rate.
Tested with mkverge 8.8: "--default-duration <video track #>:<original fps>fps"
NVEnc's integer fps -> dilated Video stream
Discussing about advanced video encoding techniques including GPU encoding, distributive encoding and segmental encoding. Topics are not limited to MediaCoder.

Newborn babies to be microchipped -- Government order
The British Government has ordered that from now on, all newborn babies are to be microchipped. The good news is this is to apply only in Northern Ireland, and to dogs. For now.
"Today if you go into a shop to buy food and your credit card is refused by the computer, you can pay with cash. What happens when there is no cash? You are at the mercy of the computer. If it refuses your card or microchip, you have no means to purchase anything." Those words were written by David Icke in his 1995 book and the truth shall set you free. To paraphrase Bob Monkhouse, they laughed at Icke when he said he was a prophet, but they're not laughing now. Actually, Icke went further than that, he said the eventual goal of the Order of the Illuminati - the organisation behind the Grand Conspiracy - is "a microchipped population connected to a global computer." Okay, they may not have been able to kill Abū Qatāda, but this month they made a small but significant step forward in their sinister plot for total global control by the introduction of a law that makes it compulsory for every newborn in Northern Ireland to be fitted with a microchip. The good news is that for now, this new law is restricted to dogs, but there are already plans being laid for it to be extended to the Mainland. The pretext is of course to combat the growing menace of dangerous dogs. In recent years a number of people have been killed here by these animals, including 5 year old Ellie Lawrenson, who was savaged to death by a pit bull, but human beings kill far more people than dogs, so if dogs are to be so severely controlled, surely it makes sense that we should be, too? What about other issues? In the USA, plane passengers are subjected to intimate body searches; surely there is no point in searching plane passengers if train passengers and bus passengers are not searched as well. That could make things rather difficult for commuters, but if it saves one life, it's worth it, right? In Canada, there was recently a demand by a politician for warrantless searches, after all, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, right? And is a microchipped fitted in the back of someone's neck really so much worse than the government spying on our e-mails without warrant? If all this sounds rather silly or even satirical, consider this. In August 2002, sicko Ian Huntley murdered 10 year olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman. In the wake of the Soham Murders, an academic from Reading University came up with a plan to foil the kidnapping of young - and not so young - children. By microchipping them. Does Professor Kevin Warwick work for the Illuminati? Hardly, because the Grand Conspiracy does not exist; if it did, we could expose it, or even string up the conspirators from the nearest lamp post. So what can we do? One thing we can do is keep our eyes on our politicians, all of them. As the man said, eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. Another thing we can do is educate our people, so that when the Gestapo, Stasi, FBI, TSA or whoever come for our neighbours in the dead of night to take away our children, or our liberties, by force, they will go away empty handed, and wishing they hadn't.

This 'Dead Sea Dress' Is A Stunning Salt-Crystal Masterpiece!
By Raven Fon
Israeli artist, Sigalit Landau, has taken the world by storm with her latest project.
What might sound like something simple, actually turned out to be something remarkably stunning! Landau made an artistic choice to submerge a black gown in the Dead Sea.
Two years ago, in 2014, she decided to place the dress in the salt-rich waters of the Dead Sea. Now, in 2016, the gown has been carefully extracted to put on display.
As you can see below, these remarkable pictures show us that the final result is nothing shy of magical.
Inspired by S. Ansky's 1916 play, Dybbuk, the photo project has been named 'Salt Bride.'
Dybbuk revolves around a young Hasidic woman. In short, her body becomes possessed by the spirit of her deceased lover. The salt-encrusted gown Landau used for her art project is a replication of the one worn in the 1920s production.
Photos were taken of the gown in 3-month intervals, when Landau wanted to check its status. She took these photos so she could capture the gradual process of salt becoming crystalised on the dress. These pictures below also show you that process.
The entire series can also be seen at London's Marlborough Contemporary, where they are on display until September 3rd of this year.

The first trailer is out for Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's new film Birdman, and it could not look more awesome. The film stars Michael Keaton as a washed-up superhero actor who tries to get back in the game by mounting a Broadway play. Which is convenient, because Michael Keaton is most famous for playing Batman.
Emma Stone, Zach Galifianakis and Edward Norton also co-star.
It's due in theaters October 17, just in time for Oscar season.
