Hey everyone!
Let me tell you a funny story.
This day was a mess! Me and Sofia, my friend from class A1.1 German course in DeutschAkademie, ran late to class due to something we had to do, and it was the first time we entered late to the class. In Germany, the word "punctuality" has a high value. So of course Rudi would not wait for anyone who isn't at class on time, he has a work to do and it is to teach us German! 🙂 Gut so Rudi!
You know these days that you wake up very tired and of course have so many things to do but because you are so tired it all become a big mass?! haha well, this day I was totally off! At the break time in class I said to Sofia I have to have some strong coffee otherwise… you know. So she gladly accepted to come with me to Einstein Kaffee right in front of the DeutschAkademie school.
The line was not so long but for some reason it took some time till we payed and got the coffee.
But hey! At least we got it!
Ho no! We looked at our watches… the break time is over and we are still here!
At the end we had to run back to class and of course we were late again! haha.. it's one of these days isn't it?
So here is a photo of me and my partner to crime.
A memory of this crazy day!
The most important thing is to keep your smile on your face and your head high!
And yes, we all have these kind of days that things doesn't go as we planned or as we would like them to go, but as long as it come only once in a while that's ok!
Cheers friends!!!!
See you,

Belize and Guatemala leaders not meeting in adjacency zone
There have been recent reports in the Prensa Libre that the heads of government of Belize and Guatemala are scheduled to meet in the OAS Adjacency Zone in the days ahead. Prensa Libre sources the information to Guatemala's Foreign Minister Harold Caballeros, who purportedly made the announcement after leaving the presidential palace and the purpose was to commence the process of reporting and disclosure on the October 2013 referendum. News Five contacted the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as the Office of the Prime Minister earlier today and we were reliably informed that there is no such meeting planned between PM Barrow and President Otto Perez Molina. The referendum seeks to determine whether the existing territorial dispute should be resolved in the International Court of Justice.

If you are established in your career, you might have long ago chosen a retirement strategy (or were automatically enrolled in a company retirement plan). You may even feel like your retirement savings are keeping you from branching out to a new job or even career. It may seem daunting to leave all your savings behind and start down a new path, but if it will make you happier and your new career will still allow you to sock money away for the future (or maybe save even more), it might not be smart to hold yourself back.
It's not a decision that can be made lightly, but making a successful career change can be very rewarding if you assess what you want, do your research and plan for it. Check out some tips below about what to do with your employer-sponsored plan so you do not risk your retirement when you reinvent yourself.
Leave Your Money Alone
As long as you have more than $5,000 in your plan, your employer must allow you to leave your 401(k) as is. This can be a good short-term solution, while you figure out your next move. But since you cannot continue investing in an employer-sponsored plan after leaving the job, you may want to eventually combine it with another account. If you don't do anything with the account, you might forget it exists or risk not knowing if there are significant changes to the plan.
Roll It Over
Depending on what your 401(k) is worth, you can move the assets from this fund into a new 401(k) or an individual retirement account. You can have your old plan's custodian transfer your 401(k) to a new employer's 401(k) or a similar tax-deferred retirement plan automatically, without getting involved directly.
If you have the amount transferred in a direct rollover, no taxes will be withheld whereas if you are paid out the amount and switch it manually, a portion will go to federal taxes off the bat and potentially more if you do not complete the process within 60 days. This is almost always the most recommended action to take with a 401(k) when you are switching jobs.
Cash Out
Though many advise against this option, you can use the money you have saved to help you adjust between jobs. It's important to know, though, that this money is earmarked for retirement. Taking money out of your 401(k) before you turn 59½ years old, will result in tax liability and likely penalty fees (there are some exceptions). Ideally, you will have an emergency fund to turn to between jobs or for any needs that come up.
Missing Months
If you will have time off between jobs or if you are taking a pay cut to change careers, it's good to know how this will impact your retirement plan. Keep in mind that not every plan is as generous in matching employee contributions — maybe you will make less money at your new job but a larger company 401(k) match or you could be making more money but have to set up your own retirement account. It's important to take into account these factors before deciding what to do.
In the end, this is your future you are protecting. It is possible to make positive changes in your life without risking retirement, but it may require some thought and effort on your end. If you really want to invest in your happiness, make sure you aren't leaving your future self in the lurch. Assess what you should do with your current employer-sponsored retirement plan, carve out a realistic budget and savings method for your new path — and continue to save early and often.

One of the most important features of modern, computerized, radios is that you can make them talk to you. After all, with setup telemetry link from UAV, radio should "know" things. Things like battery voltage for example. Why not make FrSky Taranis (or Horus or Taranis X Q7) talk to you and report LiPo voltage in a smart way?
Before we proceed, you have to setup SmartPort telemetry or "legacy" FrSky telemetry. This post does not covers this topic. You might want to take a look here and here.
Let's go
In OpenTX menu navigate to last page called Telemetry and check if VFAS is reporting proper value.
Go back (long press of PAGE button) 2 pages to LOGICAL SWITCHES and setup 2 switches:
- L1 that activates when battery voltage is below threshold. I'm using 4S and decied to use 13.8V as my threshold value. In my case, I'm using Switch B for arming, so I also included it in this condition. I want Taranis to send me warnings and report voltage only when I'm armed.
- L2 of a type Sticky that will activate for 5 seconds when switch L1 goes off. This Sticky logical switch protects us from the case when voltage crosses the threshold for a few times in short period of time.
Go forward to SPECIAL FUNCTIONS page and setup two functions:
- SF1 that plays VFAS voltage every 20 seconds when quad is armed (SB not in top position)
- SF2 that plays
lowbatwarning when L2 logical switch is on: VFAS goes below threshold but not more often than every 5 seconds

I have to tell you a funny, Danielle. Earlier when I was outside with my pups, I looked at Libby (my oldest pup) and her allergy eyes and called her a "crusty baby."

Alex Lowes makes masterful comeback in Aragon race 1
Pata Yamaha World Superbike Team's Alex Lowes defied a challenging start to today to rise up and make a strong comeback, taking a fine fourth position in the first of the two FIM Motul World Superbike Championship races this weekend at the Motorland Aragon circuit in Spain.
After experiencing an unfortunate bike wrecking crash in FP3 on a cold and windy track, Superpole 2 also proved a disappointing experience for Alex. A technical issue on the opening lap meant the session came to a premature end and delivered no qualifying time. As a result, the young Brit squared up from 12th on the grid for race one of the Aragon weekend on a freshly rebuilt, but untested bike.
If the morning's adversities achieved anything, it was to raise the Pata Yamaha rider's race game even further. A consistent few opening laps were passed to find confidence before an impressive charge began, Lowes gradually picking off one competitor after another until reaching his teammate in fifth.
With less than 0.2 seconds between them, the duel ran until Alex made a successful pass on the brakes going in to turn one with five laps remaining. With fifth secured, a late crash by frontrunner Chaz Davies then promoted him to fourth, which he held to the line.
The race results deliver a double front row start for tomorrow's second Aragon WorldSBK race; Alex takes pole position with teammate van der Mark in second spot.
Alex Lowes – 4th +9.962s
"I'm happy with the first race. Its always hard starting from 12th position, the first few corners are quite tight here and I wasn't very confident after a little crash this morning because of the cold and the wind, so it took me a little bit to get going. We were a bit unlucky with Superpole so my first proper lap of the day was actually the first lap of the race. Once I got going I think I made a solid race, the bike was great and if we'd started from the front I think we would have had a chance to fight for the podium today. Anyway it was a good finish, my team did a really amazing job for me and well try again tomorrow."

It might be time to give your black and brown eyeliner pencils a rest, ladies. Check out this shade I spotted on Kristen Bell that just screams "spring" to me.
It's a beigey golden peach shade that I would have figured would make her look tired, but actually looks quite pretty on. And after giving it some thought, it's pretty copy-able--you might just have to mix in a little more gold if you're very pale, have darker skin or your eyes are dark.
Here are some pencils you could use to make it work:
What do you think of this eye makeup option? Are you feeling it? Or not so much?

This gem of a dress is by Indian designer Naeem Khan, taken from his Resort 2010 collection.
Both women look like superstars here, with the combination of a heavenly colour choice and twinkling textured fabric making a perfect red carpet gown.
Firstly is Katherine at 'The Ugly Truth' premiere in London.
Maybe it's her gigantic smile and proud pose too, but she looks amazing.
The statuesque star looks confident in Naeem Khan adding a ribbon around her waist to show off her curves.
The dress looks remarkable without the ribbon, as Mary Alice Stephenson demonstrates.
The stylist Mary Alice Stephenson posed at "A Magical Evening" Gala in New York recently, adding a more unusual shoe with the dress which kept the look modern.
I love both but Katherine works it just that little bit more I think. Her look and character completely shine on the red carpet.

Democrat claiming political prosecution appeals decision to prohibit visit to dying wife
The onetime Mississippi trial heavyweight Paul Minor -- once the largest Democratic donor in the state of Mississippi -- has filed a brief appealing a Justice Department move to prohibit him from visiting his dying wife.
Minor's attorneys filed a brief with the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals last week in an attempt to get their client released from federal prison pending his appeal.
The filing is only the latest salvo in an ongoing legal battle aimed at Minor's release, but the stakes are especially high now because Minors wife, Sylvia, has terminal cancer, and Minor hopes to be released to care for her.
Even if these prosecutors were so cold hearted and so focused on getting Paul, they should have been humane enough to agree to some release terms that would enable him to be with his very sick wife, said Abbe Lowell, Minors attorney.
Lowell stresses that time is of the essence because Mrs. Minor has only weeks or months to live. Her cancer is spreading everywhere, he says.
The filing by Minors attorneys came in response to a motion filed by prosecutors arguing Minor should not be released because he has previously violated the terms of his probation. Prosecutors agree that Minors wifes condition is worthy of sympathy, but maintain that the law does not allow the judge to take compassion into account when ruling on Minors release.
Minor's actions and his actions alone are responsible for his imprisonment, and no amount of sympathy can form a legal basis for his release from prison, the prosecutors motion states.
Lowell said that Minor has also applied to the Bureau of Prisons for a compassionate furlough to visit his wife but that the Bureau has yet to reply.
A spokesperson for the Bureau initially declined to comment on the status of Minors furlough application on the grounds that the information is not public. A second spokesperson, Felicia Ponce, explained, Each case is evaluated individually, so theres not a specific timeframe that I can indicate a request will be approved.
The U.S. Attorneys Office for the Southern District of Mississippi did not respond to multiple calls and emails seeking comment.
The prosecution argues that Minor should not be released because he has violated the terms of release agreements before. He was forced to receive treatment for a drinking problem after being thrown out of a hotel bar in April 2006, while free on a pre-trial bond. As a result, his bond was revoked and he was sent for inpatient alcohol treatment.
After completing his treatment, Minor broke the rules again by leaving his house without permission to consult an expert about hurricane damage to his home. The meeting took place at a restaurant where alcohol was served, although no one alleges that Minor was drinking. Minor says he contacted his probation officer beforehand, seeking permission to attend the meeting, but received no reply. The restaurant was within walking distance of Minors home.
As was reported earlier by RAW STORY, prosecutors claim that even though Minor is a non-violent offender who has never been deemed a flight risk, he is too dangerous to be let out of prison, because he is an alcoholic and because he violated the terms of his pre-trial release.
Minors lawyers stress that their client has been sober for 27 months and that his substance abuse counselor pronounced his prospects for recovery to be excellent.
Both sides in the dispute agree that Minors alcoholism contributed to his rule-breaking, but disagree about what that means for his future prospects. The prosecution contends that Minors newfound sobriety doesnt mitigate the danger he poses to the community because the unauthorized meeting happened after he completed his treatment. They worry that Minor is still subject to many of the stresses that his lawyers blame for his earlier rule-breaking, including his wifes illness and the prospect of more prison time.
Minors lawyers say that their client has earned another chance.
[Minor] was never found to be a flight risk and the issue of danger was with his alcoholism, for which there is now a clear record of improvement and which could be redressed through numerous conditions that could be imposed on release, the defense reply brief states.
Minor admits that he broke the rules. The most serious of these infractions took place while Minor was an untreated alcoholic who was grappling with his wifes breast cancer diagnosis, the destruction of his Biloxi home by Hurricane Katrina, and his second criminal trial.
Those missteps earned him two years in jail. In the reply brief, his lawyers note that this penalty is more than enough to teach their client to respect the courts orders.
There are of course conditions of release that would ensure that he complied with court order, so that he's not a danger to anyone, Lowell said.
Minors longtime friend and spiritual advisor, Right Reverend Joe Morris Doss, a retired Episcopalian bishop in residence at Grace Church in New Orleans, believes that Minor is ready to rejoin the community.
[Paul] has courageously examined his life, confessed his personal failings and faults, and is trying to choose who he wants to be from this point on in his life, Doss wrote in an email to RAW STORY.
In 2007, Minor, a wealthy Gulf Coast plaintiffs attorney and major Democratic donor, was sentenced to 11 years in prison and a $4.25 million fine in connection with campaign loans he guaranteed for two Mississippi judicial candidates who later ruled on cases involving Minors clients. The government alleges that these loans were bribes to ensure favorable rulings.
This was Minors second trial on charges stemming from loan guarantees to judges. The first time around, the government failed to obtain convictions against Minor or any of the three judicial candidates who accepted loans from him. One of the judges, Oliver Diaz, was fully exonerated at that first trial, but the government retried Minor and the other two judges.
Many observers suspect that politics played a role in the federal cases against Minor.
At Minors second trial, Judge Harry T. Wingate of the Southern District Court of Mississippi revised the burden of proof downward and excluded evidence that Minors lawyers had been allowed to present at the first trial. The first set of jurors had been told that for them to find the defendant guilty of bribery, the government had to prove that that the loan guarantees were part of a quid pro quo an exchange of campaign money for future favorable rulings. The second jury was given a looser definition of bribery.
Judges are elected in Mississippi and it is not illegal for attorneys to contribute to judicial campaigns, through either direct donations or loan guarantees. At the time Minor guaranteed the loans, lawyers contributed more money to judicial campaigns than any other group. Minor himself had been guaranteeing loans to judicial candidates for years
The initial indictments against Minor were released just in time to become fodder for the successful gubernatorial campaign of Republican Haley Barbour. The news was politically explosive because Minor had donated tens of thousands of dollars to Barbours Democratic opponent, former Governor Ronnie Musgrove.
The US Attorney who brought the original case against Minor, Dunnica Lampton, is a Bush appointee with two unsuccessful Republican congressional bids under his belt.
Lampton and his office are currently being investigated by the Justice Department over allegations of selective prosecution.

Santos Cage Doll (SOLD)
c19th century santos cage doll.
Religious, most likely continental.
Losses consistent with age. Repainted at some point.
The Santos dolls take their name from the Spanish word for Saint, and are also known as Santons (French) and Santibelli (Italian). The Santos that started the genre of dolls we currently represent (primarily Spanish Colonial and Western European style), were originally started as copies of 17th century carvings by priests.
Originally, Santos were created for use as in-home altars. They were needed in small villages that did not have a priest, as well as for when it was not possible to travel to church, such as during times of war. Their development flourished in Europe in the 1700's and 1800's, primarily due to these wars.

The narrator of this Puran is Shri Lomharshan Rishi Ji, who was the disciple of Shri Vyas Rishi and who is also known as Soot Ji. Shri Lomharshan Ji (Soot Ji) told that previously Shri Brahma Ji had narrated this knowledge to Daksh-etc eminent sages. I will narrate the same. In the Adhyay named "Srishti ka Varnan" (Description of Nature) of this Puran (page 277 to 279) it has been stated that Shri Vishnu Ji is the basis of the whole world, who is in the form of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv does the production, preservation and destruction of the world. I salute to that God Vishnu.
One who is always everlasting-true form and the primary cause unmanifested Prakriti; she only is called Pradhan. From her only, Purush has created the world. Consider the immeasurably brilliant Brahma Ji to be Purush. He creates all the living beings and is dependent on God Narayan.
The self-existent (Swayambhu) God Narayan created the water. Because of being born of Narayan, the water started being called as Naar. First of all God took rest on water. Therefore God is called Narayan. God released his power in the water, from it a golden egg appeared. It is heard that in that only the swayambhu Brahma Ji was born. After residing in the egg for a year, Shri Brahma Ji broke it into two pieces. From one Dhoolok (city of gods in the sky) was formed and from the second, Bhoolok (Earth).
Thereafter Brahma Ji made Rudra appear from his anger.
The above-mentioned knowledge has been said by Rishi Lomharshan (Soot Ji), which is hearsay (lokved), is not complete. Because the speaker is saying that, this has been heard. Therefore for complete information of Shri Devi MahaPuran, Shri Shiv MahaPuran, Shrimad Bhagwad Gita and four Vedas and the Tatvgyan (true spiritual knowledge) given by Purna Parmatma which is known as Swasam Ved i.e. Kavir Vaani (Kabir Vaani/Kabir Speech), please read Swasam Ved in 'Gahri Nazar Gita Mein', 'Parmeshwar Ka Saar Sandesh', 'Paribhasha Prabhu Ki' and book 'Yatharth Gyan Prakash Mein'.
(KavirDev (God Kabir), by Himself appearing in Kalyug, properly explained the true knowledge again to His special disciple Shri Dharmdas Ji (resident of Bandhavgarh), which is mentioned in this very book, in "Creation of Nature". Please read there.)
Shri Parasar Ji has also called Kaal / Brahm as ParBrahm, and has also called Brahma as well as Vishnu, and has also called him as Anaadi i.e. Amar (Immortal). This Brahm i.e. Kaal does not have birth-death. From this only, Rishi's immature mind becomes evident.
Please think: - The knowledge of Vishnu Puran has been said by a Rishi, who has said on the basis of Lokved (hearsay knowledge i.e. baseless stories), and the knowledge of Brahma Puran, Shri Lomharshan Rishi had heard from Daksh-etc Rishis; he has written that. Therefore to understand both (Vishnu Puran and Brahm Puran) mentioned above, help will be taken from Shri Devi Puran and Shri Shiv Puran, which Shri Brahma Ji himself narrated to his son Narad Ji, which was received and written by Shri Vyas Ji. The knowledge of the other Purans cannot be similar to the knowledge of "Shri Devi Puran" of Shri Brahma Ji because it was directly received by Narad Ji, and Vyas Ji had written it. Therefore to understand other Purans, assistance will be taken from Shri Devi Puran and Shri Shiv Puran. Because this knowledge has been given by Daksh-etc Rishis' father Shri Brahma Ji. To understand Shri Devi Puran and Shri Shiv Puran, assistance will be taken from Shrimad bhagwad Gita and the four Vedas. Because this knowledge has been imparted himself by God Brahm in Kaal-form, who is the originator i.e. father of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv Ji. To understand the knowledge of Holy Vedas and Holy Shrimad Bhagwad Gita Ji, we will have to take help from Swasam Ved i.e. Sukshm Ved which has been given by Kaal-form Brahm's originator i.e. father Param Akshar Brahm (KavirDev); which SatPurush, on appearing, had Himself uttered through (KavirgirbhiH) Kavir Vaani / Kabir Speech. (Evidence is in Rigved Mandal 9 Sukt 96 Mantra 16 to 20). And in Shrimad Bhagwat Gita God Kaal i.e. Brahm has himself explained his state, which is true.
In Gita Adhyay 15 Shlok 18, has said that I (Kaal-form Brahm) am superior to all the living beings in my twenty-one brahmands. Whether they are perishable in material body or are imperishable in soul-form. Therefore, on the basis of Lokved (hearsay knowledge) I am considered to be Purushottam. In reality, Purushottam is some one other than me (Kshar Purush i.e. Kaal) and Akshar Purush (ParBrahm). He only is actually called Parmatma i.e. God. He, entering into the three loks, nurtures and protects everyone. He only, in reality, is the Imperishable/Eternal Supreme God (Gita Adhyay 15 Shlok 16, 17). Brahm, the giver of the knowledge of Gita, is himself saying that oh Arjun! You and I have had several births. You do not know; I know. There is evidence in Shrimad Bhagwad Gita Adhyay 4 Shlok 5 and Adhyay 2 Shlok 12, and in Adhyay 7 Shlok 18, has called his sadhna also as (Anuttamam ) very bad/inferior. Therefore has said in Adhyay 18 Shlok 62 that oh Arjun! Go in the refuge of that Supreme God in every respect; by His grace only you will attain supreme peace and will attain the lok which will never be destroyed i.e. Satlok. In Adhyay 15 Shlok 4, has said that when you find a Tatvdarshi (who is mentioned in Gita Adhyay 4 Shlok 34 and Adhyay 15 Shlok 1), after that you should search for that Param Pad of Parmeshwar1 , having gone where, worshippers do not return to the world i.e. attain complete salvation; the Supreme God from whom this whole world originated and He only is the sustainer of all. I (the giver of the knowledge of Gita) am also in the refuge of that Aadi Purush Parmeshwar. One should only do His bhakti sadhna i.e. worship with full faith.

Pure Reason Revolution were a British rock group formed at the University of Westminster in 2003. Their music incorporates elements of progressive rock and electro. Their music has been variously described as 'Astral Folk' and 'New prog'. Rick Wakeman has given the band a favourable review. Members have a shared appreciation for the work of bands such as Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, Nirvana, Justice, Kraftwerk and Fleetwood Mac.
The Sunset Sound:
Pure Reason Revolution began life as a Reading outfit named The Sunset Sound, which featured the Courtney brothers, Chloë Alper and, for a short while, Jim Dobson. The Courtney brothers had previously played with pop punk guitar band Gel, which was scouted and signed by Seymour Stein, the founder of Sire. Alper used to front the Period Pains, who scored a hit with an anti-Spice Girls song in 1997.
The band was completed by Tom Leathes (vocals, guitar) and Bob Cooper (bass guitar). Debut single "Moving" picked up radio airplay on BBC Radio 1 (where the band was championed by alternative-music guru Steve Lamacq), XFM and LA's KROQ.
Pure Reason Revolution:
Courtney J, Dobson and Jong met at the University of Westminster 2000 - 2003 and went through a number of name changes before settling on Pure Reason Revolution (PRR), including "The Wow" and "Pendulum Dawn".
The band signed to Alan McGee's Poptones label for a one-off release of "Apprentice of the Universe" (peaking at #74 in a national chart).
Signing to SonyBMG in autumn 2004, the following year saw the band releasing two singles - the 12-minute long Bright Ambassadors of Morning (the title is from a line in Pink Floyd's Echoes on the Meddle album), and The Intention Craft - plus one mini-album, Cautionary Tales for the Brave. This was released to make up for delays in recording that meant the band would miss its original launch window. The use of so many of the proposed album tracks on a mini-album led the band to develop some new material for the album, including "The Twyncyn/Trembling Willows". Releases were on the band's own Holograph imprint, via SonyBMG.
In March 2005, the band played the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas, before playing several North American dates, and they regularly played on the British club circuit. During this time, PRR supported Mew,Hope of the States,Secret Machines, and Oceansize, as well as headlining their own gigs and recorded sessions for Mark Radcliffe's Radio Two show and XFM. In spring 2005, Jong left the band, to be replaced by another Westminster pal Jamie Willcox, though it is Jong's work featured on recorded output up to, and including, The Dark Third. Both Jong and Willcox receive credits on the The Dark Third album.
The band sometimes allowed fans to listen to streaming material via its MySpace website, including works in progress and exclusive Christmas tracks.
The first full-length album, The Dark Third was released in the UK on 10 April 2006, and was produced by Paul Northfield (Rush, Porcupine Tree, Gentle Giant, Dream Theater). A US version of the album containing the original, pre-Cautionary Tales mooted tracklisting and amended artwork was released in the U.S. on 25 July 2006.
In summer 2006, with his wife, Susanne Courtney, being pregnant with their first child, Andrew Courtney left the band. He was replaced by Paul Glover, formerly of the band Wire Jesus.
Jim Dobson then left the band in November 2006. Although there was no formal announcement regarding his departure, a notice on the band's forum explained that nothing more could be said, for "legal reasons".
In December 2006, the band parted company with Sony/BMG.
On 16 February 2007, the European version was released under licence to InsideOut Music.
Pure Reason Revolution supported Blackfield on their European tour in February 2007. This was their first support tour with new drummer Paul Glover. Their live set had few changes, one of which was a reworked reprise of "Golden Clothes", in which all band members (minus Glover, who is drumming) play synthesizers and end singing a cappella.
Following the tour, the band began recording the follow-up to The Dark Third. In June, the band journeyed to the US again to play at the 2007 edition of the renowned progressive/art rock festival NEARfest, as well as at three other clubs. These shows saw the debut of a new song called "Deus Ex Machina". Pure Reason Revolution also opened for Porcupine Tree on their 'Tour Of A Blank Planet' European tour in June/July 2007.
The band played just one more UK date in 2007, on 15 October at Southampton University.
The band released a 4-track EP of "Victorious Cupid" on ORG Records on 14 April 2008, accompanied by a one-off London show on 12 April 2008. The band played another one off show at the Camden Barfly on July 31, 2008 which was followed by a ten-date mini-tour of Europe. This included a set in Bonn, Germany, which was recorded for German TV network WDR and will be broadcast in February 2009. Shows are also scheduled for the Eclipsed Magazine festival at Colos-Saal, Germany on the 22 November 2008 and at London's Cargo on 26 November 2008. A live album entitled Live at NEARfest 2007 was released on 20 June 2008.
In April 2008 the band signed to German label Superball Music for the release of their next album, about which manager Jonathan Cooke made the following statement: "It was refreshing to find a situation that combines the artist commitment and enthusiasm of an indie with the ambition of a major. Signing a longer-term deal with Superball Music for album 2 onwards was an easy decision to make". On 28 November 2008 they confirmed their second album would be titled Amor Vincit Omnia and would be released on 9 March 2009.
On 5 March 2009, the band began their most extensive tour to date, comprising about 12 concerts in the UK and approximately 22 in mainland Europe. The band were track of the week on Kerrang! Radio and track of the day in Classic Rock Magazine - which also featured a double-page spread on the band in their quarterly prog-rock issue. A single from the album, "Deus Ex Machina", was released as a download only on 24 March 2009. Promo-CDs with three versions of the single were distributed at gigs on the 2009 tour.
Recent material was considerably more electronic, a departure from their more dreamy, classic-prog style of The Dark Third. According to Organ magazine, "Pure Reason Revolution are such a strange band...they're a mating of angelic prog rock harmony in the style of Yes, and old school Man Parrish hip hop style stripped down Justice electro funk. This actually works." The change of style has been reflected in Amor Vincit Omnia 's artwork, designed entirely by bassist/vocalist Chloe Alper, which is darker and less spacey, whilst remaining surreal and symbolic.
The band completed its third studio album, entitled Hammer and Anvil, released via Superball Music on October 15, 2010 in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and October 18 in the rest of Europe. The new music continued the dark, electronic themes of Amor Vincit Omnia, and was partially inspired by themes of World War I and II. According to Rock Sound, "the band have retained most of their heavy hooks to create a great crossover record. A track like 'Last Man Last Round' will fit into many Pendulum fans' heads, whereas their progressive elements are still prevalent in 'Open Insurrection'". The album was co-written and co-produced by Courtney and Tom Bellamy.
The band played a series of live shows in London, Germany and Holland during summer 2010, a short tour in Europe and the UK in November and December, and another mini-tour in Germany in February 2011. A one-off concert at London Scala marked the band's biggest headline gig to date, and included contributions from Tom Bellamy and the string section of Clean Bandit, as well as one of the first performances of "Bullitts Dominae" (a fan favourite which had previously not been played live).
On 9 August 2011, the band announced that they were splitting up, with final shows in the UK in November 2011 planned. On the 5th of November 2011 the band released their final EP entitled Valour. It contained a new song and various remixes. According to band statements, proceeds from the download-only EP were to be donated to the charities War Child and the Royal British Legion.

Talk:Certificate and Public Key Pinning
June 21 2016 Comments
Hi Jeffrey and John,
I am from PKI project team at Symantec, and am reading your OWASP guide about certificate pinning and have a question on this point: what to pin?
In certificate paragraph, it implies that it should be the server's certificate, not its issuer.
"There is a downside to pinning a certificate. If the site rotates its certificate on a regular basis, then your application would need to be updated regularly. "
The sample code, e.g. Android, however, all use an ICA to pin. I believe pinning ICA is a good balance of flexibility. Is the guide intention to suggest pinning of CA or the server host's certificate? Thanks,
Past Failures

Operational considerations
We use certificate pinning very commonly in my organization (yay for us) but we recently hit a problem when we were routinely changing a certificate on a service. The development team for one of the client applications and implemented pinning, but they had not considered what would happen when the certificate changed.
The majority of our clients support 2 pinned certificates at a time, so when we want to change the server cert the process is
1) Configure the new server cert in the client alongside the old one 2) Replace the old cert on the server 3) Configure the old cert from the client
This way we can do the cert rotation usually with no downtime for the client.
The team in question did not do this, which meant they had to have a few minutes of downtime (this is important as we have a demanding SLA) and also it meant that we had to do the change out of office hours to minimize the impact.
So, my suggestion is that we expand this page to include a section on "Operational considerations" that outlines the recommended approach.
If no-one objects, I will add the new section in a couple of days.
Michael Goodwin (talk) 06:20, 2 April 2015 (CDT)
(I am not sure how to reply to your question so I will do it inline. Let me know the appropriate method).
I absolutely agree that this is a needed section. We have had certificate pinning in for two years and it has been extremely difficult because the teams don't fully grasp the operational implications. Our strategy has been to include the old cert and the new cert. Since our app is a consumer app, I have also lobbied extremely hard to get a 'Your app is out of date and needs to be upgraded' but have not got traction. As a result, every time the certificate changes it's a world of pain since we don't have an effective way to let users know they need to update.
I have many, many thoughts on the operations side and would love to contribute. SteveA
Android example contains code that breaks apps
The Android code example contains a section where it checks that the authtype equals "RSA". F5 recently changed their default authtypes to RSA-DHE. This meant that when we upgraded our F5's in production, all of our Android mobile apps broke. Obviously a big issue.
What is the compelling reason for this line of code:
if (!(null != authType && authType.equalsIgnoreCase("RSA"))) {
throw new CertificateException("checkServerTrusted: AuthType is not RSA"); }
iOS sample is bad
the iOS sample doesn't need to be an entire program; it should be a minimal Objective-C fragment that demonstrates best practices in loading the keys or key fingerprints from a configuration file.
This Objective-C sample diverges pretty badly from the other language examples, which are short and sweet. Douglasheld (talk) 10:34, 17 June 2015 (CDT)
A flaw in many pinning implementations was pointed out in [1] Does the OWASP sample code address this? Probably worth an explicit mention in the doc somewhere. I don't have time to tackle this now. --TimMorgan (talk) 13:06, 10 March 2016 (CST)

It may be a more difficult choice, but taking the easy way out is part of what led us into this mess in the first place. If we stop buying from US companies then US employees lose their jobs. And people without jobs don't buy homes.
By David Lazarus
Via the Los Angeles Times
May 27, 2011
You can't knock Mark Bloome for his good intentions.
The Seattle philanthropist is head of a nonprofit organization called TAP America, which says it wants to strengthen the country by having consumers buy more American-made products.
And he's no stranger to the business world. If Bloome's name sounds familiar, that's because he's the son of Mark C. Bloome, who built a Los Angeles service station into one of the biggest chains of tire stores in the country.
His "buy America" campaign isn't a bad thing per se.
Good intentions aside, though, the knock on Bloome is that buying American can be a challenge. And it's unlikely most consumers will pay as much as five or six times more for an American-made product just to demonstrate their economic patriotism.
"Consumers are out to stretch their dollar as far as it will go," said Lee Ohanian, a UCLA economist. "That typically means buying things from all sorts of other countries."
Not always, of course. My colleagues in the Business section have reported on a wide variety of California businesses that make everything from helicopters to skateboards. And indeed, manufacturing remains a key part of the local economy.
But from the consumer's perspective, it isn't always easy to find everyday goods with a domestic pedigree, especially at affordable prices.
For proof, stop by any Wal-Mart, Costco or Target. Pick any type of merchandise — toys, furniture, electronics, whatever. Chances are, you'll find few products manufactured in the United States.
And even if you could find a product with "Made in the USA" on the package, it's likely that many if not most of the parts that went into making that product were manufactured elsewhere.
"When was the last time you tried to buy a pair of socks made in the United States?" Ohanian asked. "You're just not going to find any. They're all now from Vietnam and China."
Be that as it may, TAP America is calling on U.S. consumers to do their share to restore the country's economic greatness and buy American — even just a little bit.
The organization says that if each of us spend $1 a day on an American-made good, more than a million domestic manufacturing jobs will be created (a claim that Ohanian called ridiculous).
Bloome, for his part, is a true believer.
"Each American must take individual responsibility to purchase American goods to make our nation strong again, rather than simply relying on government to solve our economic problems for us," he told me.
"For our country to remain strong — economically, militarily, socially — we have to have people working. Things are getting hollowed out."
The "TAP" in TAP America stands for tolerance, Americanism and patriotism. Bloome founded the organization in January with a commitment of about $500,000 for the first three years.
Much of that amount will be spent trying to sign up businesses for a "certified merchant program" in which a seal of approval will be bestowed on retailers with at least 20% American-made goods in stock.
The organization also plans to partner with other groups in promoting tolerance in schools and elsewhere.
Bloome can come across as a little, well, colorful. For example, he said that one of TAP America's goals is to encourage people to do five minutes of exercise daily to show support for U.S. troops.
But he seems sincere when he says that something must be done to unite people and turn the country around, and that promotion of U.S. manufacturing is an important way to boost our fortunes.
Still, his group's own website highlights the challenge of trying to get consumers to buy American. It lists dozens of businesses nationwide where American-made goods can be purchased.
Most of these businesses are small companies that produce specialty products such as motorcycle saddle bags or pruning saws. They're not where you'd go to get your kid's back-to-school wardrobe, say, or a kitchen appliance.
Ultra-Sun Technologies, a Corona manufacturer of air purifiers, is on TAP America's list. Robin Scott, the president of the company, told me it's getting harder and harder to compete with cheaper products from overseas.
A few years ago, he said, Ultra-Sun had about 25 people at its plant. Now it has half that number.
"The only way we will save this country is if everyone says they won't buy a product unless it's made in America," Scott said.
A residential air purifier made in the United States by Ultra-Sun sells for nearly $600. A Chinese-made air purifier is available from Costco for about $100.
Then there's the question of the quality of jobs we're seeking to protect. For example, another California company on TAP America's list is Cequal Products, a West L.A. manufacturer of back- and leg-support products for the bedroom.
Daniel Hirsch, the company's vice president, said he has about half a dozen people working at a local manufacturing facility. He declined to say how much his workers are paid.
But Hirsch acknowledged that none of the workers receives health or retirement benefits. He also said his company tries to buy its components from U.S. suppliers, but that's not always possible.
"We source from all over, foreign and domestic," Hirsch said.
It's a global economy. Japanese cars are made in America. American cars are made in Mexico. Everything, it seems, is made in China. And parts for all goods can come from everywhere.
Moreover, many commonplace products are simply no longer manufactured in this country. You couldn't buy an American-made TV even if you tried.
Bloome believes it's just a matter of education. Once consumers realize the economic and political implications of buying foreign-made products, he said, they'll be more open to purchasing domestic alternatives, even at significantly higher prices.
"American businessmen will supply American consumers with what they want," Bloome said. "We just have to ask for it."
We already have. We want the highest possible quality at the lowest possible price.
Generally speaking, that's not made here any more.

A good, toxin-free sink scrub can be such a helpful tool in the kitchen!
It is unsettling how toxic they are!
Thankfully, there's a simple answer.
Big Problem
The only "A" rated sink scrub still has so many disturbing synthetic fragrances and fake oils.
Long story short, this is very dangerous for your family.
This is not enough. We demand 100% toxin free.
The Answer
With the Premium Starter Kit, jump start your toxin-free journey with 11 oils, a diffuser, and a packet of Thieves Household Cleaner .
(Need to get a toxin-free starter kit? Click here: Young Living Starter Kit)
Half of that packet (or two caps if you've gotten the actual bottle) of liquid gold will do the trick.
The Recipe
2 C Baking Soda
2 caps of Thieves Household Cleaner
10 drops Young Living Lemon Essential Oil (we only trust Young Living)
Mix together in a jar like this one.
Rinse the sink to make sure it's wet.
Sprinkle in the sink and scrub with a toxin-free sponge. This one is my favorite.
About THHC
Formulated with the power of Young Living's Thieves oil blend, you can get a deep clean without dangerous or synthetic ingredients.
Thieves Cleaner also includes the scent of Lemon essential oil for an even more uplifting aroma.
You'll love the sweet-and-spicy scent and serious cleaning power of Thieves Household Cleaner.
This all-purpose cleaner can be used on any surface in your home for dusting, spot cleaning, scrubbing, or any other cleaning need.
Wherever you use it, you'll feel good knowing it's safe to use around everyone in your family, including pets.
Final Thoughts
This is just one way of many that I have found to use my Thieves Household Cleaner (one of 12, technically!).
I am so forever grateful for our Premium Starter Kit that changed our family's health for the better.
The sink scrub DIY above is so simple, makes a lot (a little goes a long way), and it's super-effective!
I like scrubbing it at night after the final load is loaded in the dishwasher, so we can wake to a clean and fresh-smelling kitchen.
Andrea 🙂

Rainbow's End night rides and live gigs
by luke
Admittedly, it's been a good couple of decades since I last ventured through the hallowed gates of New Zealand's favourite little amusement park. Since then, my experience of theme parks has been limited to a disenchanting Disneyland experience (I'm the guy who shows up on the day the rollercoaster is closed for repairs) and colourful zombie flicks (because that's where the undead always flock for the big finale.)
Rainbow's End is a pretty huge institute for any kiwi kid. Us adults are probably used to overlooking it now. A couple of years ago, the Manukau City Council took a 0.4 hectare-sized bite out of the place in exchange for a new lease.
But the End is doing pretty well for itself, and it warrants another visit, especially from us big kids. Through March the park is running Night Rides with live gigs every Saturday night; a little rock and roll to go with your rocking roller-coasters. Ahem.
Always keen to impress my younger siblings with my affluent, perk-fuelled writer's lifestyle, I took my 17-year old sister along to the inaugural Night Rides session, with indie rockers These Four Walls providing the live entertainment. The bumper boats have never been better served by a backdrop of razor-sharp riffs and teenage angst.
I must say, and my green-faced companion would agree, the real stars of the show are Rainbow's Ends two newest additions, The Power Surge and The Invader. Because you're never too old to be strapped onto a huge disc and left at the mercy of gravity's sweeping malice.
You still have 3 Saturdays to go. I recommend bundling up the whanau and checking it out – relive those childhood memories and catch some great kiwi tunes while you're at it.
Cue 'gold-at-the-end-of-the-rainbow' pun for the closer…
